《Reincarnated As a Fox With System》
Chapter 1 - 1: Reincarnated as… What?! (Edited)
Chapter 1 - 1: Reincarnated as¡ What?! (Edited)
Misfortune¡
What is misfortune?
Someone said he had misfortune because he did not win the lottery that day. Another said she had misfortune because her boyfriend broke up with her.
Tang Li Xue could only sneer at them¡ Misfortune?
No one knew more about misfortune than her!
Her mother died when giving birth to her.
Her father was a heavy gambler and acquired a lot of debt.
Her father then fled, leaving only the sickly Tang Li Xue with her poor big brother.
She had poor health since she was little, so without money or an education her brother had no choice but to join a gang to pay her hospital fees and the debt their father left them.
Again, fate yed with her life. Her beloved big brother was involved in a brawl between gangs and was hit by a car. In the end, he was left as a vegetable.
Tang Li Xue began to question God''s existence.. How could her life be so miserable?
She forced herself to work so she could pay the hospital fees for her big brother.
There was no other choice!
Her big brother was in aa and they were saddled with countless debts thanks to their father!
There was no time for her toin about her misfortune and no time for her to pray for good fortune!
She could only work multiple jobs day and night.
Tang Li Xue''s sickly body became weaker and weaker with each passing day¡
In the end¡
Everything went nk¡
As her vision turned ck¡
Tang Li Xue slowly regained her consciousness.
''Ahh¡ I never felt this good before in my life!''
''It''s as if my body became really light¡ so light¡ like I am flying.''
"THE HECK?! I REALLY AM FLYING!" Tang Li Xue opened her eyes and found out that she was flying in an empty white space.
''Opened her eyes'' wasn''t really urate since she was actually a flying soul in the shape of a ball right now and she had no eyes to open.
"Bohoho¡ What a poor child!"
Tang Li Xue turned her field of vision and found there was an old granny in this empty white space.
''Eh... Granny, please don''t cry. I am ok.'' Tang Li Xue sighed. ''It looks like I am really dead now. But I am still really worried about my big brother. I hope... He can wake up from hisa soon and find his own happiness in the end.'' Tang Li Xue thought. As a soul, she cannot speak yet the old Granny seemed to understand her anyway.
"Don''t worry poor child! Everything has its own fate and destiny. By the way, this granny''s name is Meng Po. You can call me Grandma Meng." Grandma Meng''s smile was very gentle and full of sympathy. After reading Tang Li Xue''s history, Grandma Meng truly sympathized with Tang Li Xue and mourned her previous fate. But she also knew that there was no alternative.
There were only two ways to be a deity and escape from a mortal''s fate of growing old, suffering, and finally death. The first way was through cultivation, rising up from a mortal to an immortal and finally bing a deity. The second way was through reincarnation and experienced 729 or 9x9x9 lives of suffering, trials, and tribtion.
There was no other way other than these two. Even Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, andpany had to pass 81, or 9 by 9, trials and tribtions on their journey to obtain Sutras and be deities.
"Do not worry child. In your next life you are destined to be a rich aristocrat''s daughter. You will marry a kind-hearted second prince from a big empire, and live happily ever after." Grandma Meng said reassuringly with a gentle smile on her face before giving Tang Li Xue a cup of her forgetfulness tea.
Tang Li Xue was smiling and bouncing in happiness "After myst life of misfortunes and suffering, this time I will get a happy life! Thank you, God! Thank you, Grandma Meng!''
It was not strange that this time Tang Li Xue got a happy life, since if a soul experienced too much suffering and misfortunes in consecutive samsaras then it would .u.mte resentment and be an evil spirit. So usually, everyone would get their own trials, sufferings, and happiness equally.
Tang Li Xue drank Grandma Meng''s forgetfulness tea happily and gave the cup back to her.
"Good child, go and enter that tunnel over there. I hope you will quickly amass enough good karma to be a deity!" Grandma Meng pat Tang Li Xue''s head¡ errr the top of her soul. Tang Li Xue bowed toward Grandma Meng and jumped into the tunnel.
The tunnel was not dark at all; the walls were ck but there were countless light sparks of different colors, twinkling like the night sky.
''Uwaaah¡ It really feels like I went back to the material ne, maybe this tunnel actually connects this mysteriousherworld with the countlesss and cosmos in the material world!'' Tang Li Xue sighed mentally. ''Whatever, it''s not my business anymore since I will forget everythingter anyway.''
But when Tang Li Xue was halfway through the tunnel¡
BZZZZZZZZT¡ BZZZZZZZT
The ground started to shake violently!
''What?! Even in this afterlife, there are also earthquakes?! I¡ I... I feel sick!''
''Oeeeeeeeeeekh'' Tang Li Xue felt extremely dizzy and ufortable. When she dropped down, she puked all the forgetfulness tea back out.
"What?! What is happening?! Don''t tell me that damn monkey is ying around with the samsara tunnel again!" Grandma Meng quickly stood up and cursed. "OH NO! That good child! s! Hopefully, nothing bad happened to her! If it did, I will make that damned monkey take responsibility for it!" Grandma Meng jumped up in panic and checked the tunnel out, but her face quickly turned pale.
"DAMN MONKEY, YOU ARE ASKING FOR IT!!!" Grandma Meng screamed in anger.
¡..
¡
Tang Li Xue started to regain consciousness but her body still felt numb.
''Haaaah¡ I puked out all the tea of forgetfulness while in that tunnel¡ Sorry Grandma Meng, it was all really an ident.''
''But really! I will be reborn with my previous memories fully intact like in the novels!'' Then Tang Li Xue Sighed, ''Unfortunately, Earth did not have any supreme godly techniques, magic, or mystical arts¡ So my memories are all practically useless. I didn''t even have enough money to go to school nor have the time to learn any useful skill¡'' She sighed again.
[Please be calm and wait, you will soon awaken to experience your new life in this world]
''Woah!!! I''m so excited! A new world! I will be a rich princess and marry a handsome prince this time! Uehe¡ Hehehehehe¡ MUAHAHAHAHA¡ Oops¡ Tang Li Xue, please mind your manners and be more feminine, you are an aristocratic princess to be after all! Pffft¡ Hehehe¡''
[You will be reborn in the high-ranked realm, the immortal world, Lightwind Continent, South Prefecture, Moonlight Forest]
''Woooaah! High-ranked realm! IMMORTAL WORLD! Woooooaaaah! Will there be any cultivators that can ride on a flying sword like in wuxia movies there?''
[This system is given to Host aspensation for the mistake made by The Great Sage Heaven''s Equal. Please use it carefully and Host can reach the deity realm far more easily.]
''Eh¡ Mistake? What mistake? THE GREAT SAGE HEAVEN''S EQUAL?! Woaaahhh! He gave me a SYSTEM TO REACH DEITY REALM?! So generous! Thank you very much, Uncle Sun!''

''But¡ But¡Bite? Scratch? Are¡ Aren''t these skills a little weird?''
Tang Li Xue''s body started to regain some sensation, although she still felt incredibly numb. She twitched a bit and slowly opened her eyes to wee her new world. But the first thing that caught her eyes was a pair of furry white paws in front of her.
''Eh¡''
''Something feels wrong here¡ Don''t tell me¡''
''Eeehhhhh¡''

Chapter 2 - 2: First Quest First Hunt (Edited)
Chapter 2 - 2: First Quest First Hunt (Edited)
''Calm down, Tang Li Xue... Fuuhh... Fuuuh...''
Tang Li Xue looked around her surroundings and found that she was in a cave, but this cave was not very dark since there was some warm sunlight that came in from a hole in the cave''s ceiling. Tang Li Xue exited the small cave, walked toward a small pond near the cave, and used its still surface as a mirror to see her reflection.
White furry body, furry paws, furry tail... Her body was so tiny, probably not even bigger than a palm. She looked really cute, far cuter than even a kitten. The most eye-catching feature was her topaz-like sparkling eyes, they were so beautiful that it almost mesmerized even herself. BUT that was not the problem here!
''OH MY GOOODDDD!!! THIS... IS THIS THE MISTAKE?!''
Tang Li Xue felt a bang in her mind and she almost passed out again in shock and disbelief.
''WAAAAAAH!!! Uncle Sun!!! Is this the mistake that you were talking about?! Quickly turn me back into a human! I don''t want your damn system! WAAAAAAAH!!!''
Tang Li Xue was bawling out loud. It took her a few minutes but she eventually calmed down and stopped crying. Tang Li Xue was a poor orphan child in her previous life so her ability to adapt to her situation was actually really high; it was just that her heart was full of disappointment and frustration with the current reality since Grandma Meng had already promised her a happy life this time.
After drinking a few mouthfuls of water in the small pond...
Growl... Growl... Growl...
Tang Li Xue''s stomach started to protest.
''Well... I am really hungry now...''
Tang Li Xue was aware that since she was a beast now that she needed to hunt in order to eat. So, the first thing she had to do was to examine her new system thoroughly to increase her survivability since she was in the middle of a wilderness full of dangers like predatory beasts, not to mention human hunters that would probably be showing up.
''Huh... These stat points are...''
Tang Li Xue decided to put four stat points in agility and one stat point in strength since she needed agility the most to run from any predators and also to chase her prey.
''As for this skill point¡ How can I use this?''
While Tang Li Xue was pondering about it, some choices were disyed in front of her.
[Hide] SP cost: 1
[Dash] SP cost:1
[Jump] SP cost:1
[Climb] SP cost: 1
[Enhanced Sense of Smell] Sp cost: 1
[Enhanced Sense of Hearing] SP cost: 1
[Enhanced Sight] SP cost: 1
[Greater Strength] SP cost: 1
[Greater Reflexes] SP cost: 1
[Greater Endurance] SP cost: 1
[Greater Flexibility] SP cost: 1
¡
''Whoaaah! That''s a lot of options! Aaand almost all of them are important! Ok¡ Calm down Li Tang Xue¡ I mean Tang Li Xue¡ Arrrgh! Why do I only have 1 Skill Point?!''
Tang Li Xue decided to take [Hide] so she could easily ambush her prey and hide from any predatorster.
So her current status was now¡

''Eh¡ What is this [Level 1 Newbie Gift Package]? OPEN it then!''
[Gained: Immortal World''s Newbie Guide, 1x Double Exp Card(1 hour), 3x Recovery Pill, 1x Lucky Sticker, 1x Bronze Lottery Ticket, 1x Cultivation Voucher, 50 Deity Coins, Level 5 Novice Gift Package]
''Wooooaaah! So many items! But my stomach is really starving! Oh Well, I guess I will check them outter then¡ Let''s hunt and eat first!''
Moonlight Forest was really vast andplicated. Unlike a man-made forest on Earth, Moonlight Forest was a natural forest so all the grass was really tall, making it hard for Tang Li Xue to see what was in front of her. Moreover, there were many dense bushes andrge trees that made Tang Li Xue even more nervous since she was afraid that someone may follow her or something would jump out suddenly.
Fortunately, she chose to learn the [Hide] skill first so she could use it from time to time and advance slowly for safety.
[Hide skill has increased to Lv2]
''Ooooh?! So that''s how I level up the skills? I just need to use it more frequently to level it up! Ok¡ Here goes nothing!''
By the time Tang Li Xue found some prey, her [hide] skill already leveled up to level 3.
A MOUSE?!
The small critter jumped out from a nearby bush and ran away, but it did not notice that Tang Li Xue actually hid near it.
''No¡.No¡ No¡ No mice or rats, please! Even though thisdy is a fox now, I was a properdy before! So, please¡ No mice!!!''
It was not like she was afraid of mice or rats, but when she imagined putting a mouse or rat in her mouth¡ Ueeeekkh¡ Let''s not think about it¡ Next!
A snake then slithered down from a big tree.
''Should I try it? It doesn''t look as bad¡''
But as Tang Li Xue approached the snake, she soon realized¡ THE SNAKE WAS HUGE! Oh, no¡ Actually, it was her that was still too tiny.
''Let''s¡ Let''s give up on the snake for now¡ The level-jump for this battle is actually quite far for a fox cub like thisdy with that a.d.u.l.t old snake¡ That''s not fair at all!''
Again, Tang Li Xue used her [Hide] to distance herself away from the snake and took another direction to hunt. After a few more hours her [Hide] skill leveled up again to level 4 but she still did not find any prey that fit her preference. She was getting even hungrier and starting to feel dizzy. Fortunately, atst, she found the right prey that fit with her taste¡
A RABBIT!
Well, to be exact, it was a hare! Hares were bigger than rabbits and of course, stronger as well.
''Yuuuussss! Finally, my meal is here! C''mere little bunny! Come to momma!''
Ding!
[Quest: (First Hunt) Kill a hare and eat it!]
[Reward: Level +1, Stat Point +1, Skill Point +1, 10 Deity Coins]
Tang Li Xue only nced at the message but she was too starving to think about it. What was on her mind right now was only the food in front of her!
''Eh¡ It realized that I am here? It looks like my hide is still too limited¡''
Her [Hide] skill right now still had many ws. For example, she cannot move when the skill was in use or the skill would be canceled. Another one was if someone got too close to her, the [hide] skill would be broken and that person, or beast, would be able to see her. Since Tang Li Xue could not ambush it she decided to take initiative to attack the hare first!
[Scratch]!
Some lines of blood appeared on the hare''s body and the hare quickly decided to counterattack.
BANG!
The hare kicked with a hind leg toward Tang Li Xue''s head!
She tried to dodge it but failed to getpletely out of the way. However, at least the hare''s kick hit her shoulder instead of her head!
''Ouuuuuch! You! You damn bunny, how dare you hurt this Lady Deity ¡.. candidate¡ Take this!''
Tang Li Xue used [Scratch] again and managed to hit the hare''s face. Tang Li Xue''s strength was still too low so she could not deal critical damage to the hare and was forced into a battle of attrition.
[Scratch skill has increased to Lv2]
''GOOD TIMING! Again! SCRATCH!''
This time, Tang Li Xue managed tond her scratch on one of the hare''s eyes and made it roll over on the grass in pain.
''CHANCE! NOW OR NEVER! Eat thisssss¡ Ultimate attack! Ougi!''
Tang Li Xue used her [Bite] skill and chomped on the hare''s vulnerable neck!
PSSSSHHH!
The blood poured out as Tang Li Xue used her sharp fangs to tear out the flesh in the hare''s neck.
''YEEES! WIN! Hosh¡ Hosh¡ You¡ Not bad at all¡ To think a lowly creature such as yourself could fight for a few moves against this Lady Deity¡.. candidate¡ you should be proud of yourself, you fought well in yourst moments.''
Ding!
[Quest Completed!]
[Gained: Level +1, Stat Point +1, Skill Point +1, 10 Deity Coins]
Ding!
[Congrattions! You achieved level 2, +5 Stat Points, +1 Skill Point]
''Atst¡ Level up! But I did not gain any exp for winning the battle like in an RPG? Is it because I can only level up throughpleting quests?''
Chapter 3 - 3: DEAD END! (Edited)
Chapter 3 - 3: DEAD END! (Edited)
''Whatever... Let''s eat first... But urrrggghhh... Is there really no way to roast this rabbit meat?''
After hesitating for a while, Tang Li Xue resigned herself and took a bite of the raw hare meat in front of her. The pungent smell of blood invading her nose made her almost vomit the raw meat out again, but she forcefully suppressed the urge and swallowed it down after chewing for a while.
''Well... It''s taste is actually not that bad... Maybe because I became a fox cub so my taste buds also changed?''
[EXP gained!]
''Oooh?! So I just need to eat to gain exp? Haha... Easy!''
[EXP gained!]
[EXP gained!]
[Bite skill has increased to Lv2]
Ding!
[Congrattions! You achieved level 3, +5 Stat Points, +1 Skill Point]
''Great! Level 3! Sigh... It''s really not easy...''
Tang Li Xue rubbed her bloated stomach in satisfaction and remembered that she still hadn''t checked the items that she got from the newbie package earlier.
But before she had the time for that...
Rustle... Rustle... Rustle...
There were four more hares that came out from the nearby bushes. Tang Li Xue was surprised and nced at her HP bar for a second.
HP: 38/50
To fight or not?
Of course not! Fighting against a single hare already reduced her HP by 12. Against four hares, she would at least get hit four times! Assuming each of them hit her once then it meant the damage that she would receive would be 48 in total. In reality, she would get hit a lot more than four times if she got surrounded in the fight!
She sighed... In her previous life, she had a weak sickly body and in this life, she became a fox cub with weak defense! God was so unfair! I hate you all!
RUN AWAY!
''Damn! Uh... Good bunnies... Kind bunnies... Let''s discuss this for a bit. I really only did it out of self-defense, you believe me, right?''
At first, the four hares were also shocked and afraid of her but when they saw how tiny Tang Li Xue''s body was, she was still a cub after all, they regained their confidence and started to dash toward her.
''Uuugyaaaaa! You... You all... Are... Are you really men? Actually, you are beasts, not men... Fight This Lady one on one if you dare?!'' Tang Li Xue shouted in her mind but her petite fox body had already run away and dove into the bushes frantically.
However, the speed of a.d.u.l.t hares was actually higher than a fox cub like Tang Li Xue, so they caught up to her in only a few seconds.
''Right! I still have unused status points!''
She immediately put 8 points into agility to help with escaping and thest 3 points into strength for counter attacking if possible.
''Aaaaand buy [Dash] ability!''
[You have gained Dash ability!]
With her agilitybined with her [Dash], Tang Li Xue could easily escape now, so she started to think... Should she spend 2 more of her current Skill Points to buy an offensive Skill like [Greater Strength] or [Pounce] and counterattack?
''Meh... No need for that, I will save it so I can buy the skills I need in a critical timeter! My stomach is already full anyway...''
''Goodbye, bunnies! Remember this Lady already reserved your lives for this Lady''s meal tomorrow!''
Fwoosh¡ Fwoosh¡ Fwoosh¡
Tang Li Xue''s speed was already twice as fast as before and she used her [Dash] skill on top of that! She ran so fast that she could even feel the wind fiercely blowing against her furry, petite body.
Tang Li Xue felt that 10 points in agility basically made her speed the same as an a.d.u.l.t human when sprinting and now she had 15 points in agility so she was one and a half times faster than an a.d.u.l.t human. Furthermore, the [Dash] skill increased her speed by twice, so she was three times faster than an a.d.u.l.t human now!
But of course, there were also drawbacks when using [Dash]¡ She was also expending her stamina twice as fast.
''Woohoo! I am so fast now! I am the wind, no one can catch me! Just kidding¡ Haha¡ Let''s go back to my cave first before checking my items, there are so many dangers in the wilderness¡ Better off ying safe than sorry! Go¡ go¡ go! Destination: Home!''
This time, she did not use [Hide] continuously, skulking behind the bushes to check what''s in front of her and proceeding carefully like before. Instead, she just dashed straight home as fast as she could. But heading back toward the small cave, her decision proved to be deadly this time!
RRROOOOOOOOOOAAAAAARRRR!!!
''OH MY GOD!!!''
A majestic king of the jungle!!!
A mighty lion was standing right in front of her?!
''Brake! Where is the damn brake pedal?!''
Tang Li Xue quickly used her four small furry limbs to stop, but it was already toote since she now stood right in front of the lion! Even if she was still a human, standing in front of a lion would still make her freeze in fear and terror. Much less, now that she was only a fox cub as big as a palm! For the current tiny Tang Li Xue, the a.d.u.l.t lion in front of her was three times bigger than a container truck would be to a human, possibly even more!
''HolySh*t! Calm down, Tang Li Xue! Big kitty¡ Good kitty¡ Did you know that when I was a human before I was actually a kitty lover? I often shared my milk with some kitties in the slums, you know?! So¡ For their sake, please spare me this time! Pretty pweaaase¡..'' Tang Li Xue said in her mind while retreating slowly.
ROOOOAAAAAR!
The lion kept staring at Tang Li Xue full of vignce, its majestic pressure, and bloodl.u.s.t made it hard for her to breath and her heart was beating so fast that it hurt her chest.
The tawny yellow lion also walked toward Tang Li Xue''s right side while approaching her slowly.
At first, Tang Li Xue did not get why it walked toward her right side so she retreated bit by bit to her left-side, but when her back touched a giant tree behind her she understood that this damn lion actually cornered her.
Tang Li Xue sighed. ''So this is my end huh... When I go back to theherworld again Grandma Meng will certainly fulfill her promise and give me a rich and happy life with a kind handsome prince for my next life, right?''
''Please Uncle Sun, don''t mess with my life next time and let me be happy for once, ok? Also, could you give my next reincarnation a system too?! Please!!!''
RRROOOOOOOAAAAAARRRR!
The lion pounced toward Tang Li Xue! Even though Tang Li Xue was probably a bit faster than the lion after activating her [Dash], it was bigger and stronger than her and the lion also cleverly sealed her escape route! Her back was against a big tree!
THERE IS NO ESCAPE!
DEAD END!
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!
Chapter 4 - 4: Heart-Wrenching Betrayal (Edited)
Chapter 4 - 4: Heart-Wrenching Betrayal (Edited)
A great shockwave exploded wave after wave, even the mighty lion was sted back a few meters by it and it quickly ran away in fear!
Of course, it was not like Tang Li Xue awakened some kind of OP godly skills or something like that.
Actually, she ended up no better than the lion, she was almost sted even farther away than the lion but she quickly tried using her ws to hold onto the giant tree''s bark.
She still ended up sted away in a sorry state in the end, but at least shended in the nearby bushes so she was not hurt that badly.
HP: 23/50
''Damn! My HP decreased by 27 points in total! Fortunately my max HP has already increased to 50, if my max HP was still 20 like before I might already be dead by now!''
She had already forgotten that she just stood in front of an a.d.u.l.t lion a few seconds ago and almost entered its stomach!
Tang Li Xue quickly checked her surroundings and, after confirming there was no more lion in sight, she sighed in relief and carefully checked the source of that great shockwave.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes brightened as she saw several humans floating above the forest using flying swords as their footing.
Are these the famous legendary cultivators?!
In her previous world, Tang Li Xue only saw cultivators flying on TV or in manhua!
Now they were no longer fictional but real! Tang Li Xue''s topaz eyes glinted with determination as she clenched her tiny paw.
''Someday I will be like them! No, thisdy would certainly surpass them and be a Fox Deity!''
¡..

.
"This seat would never expect that the wise and righteous sects'' elders would use such a despicable tactic as ambushing and ganging up against one person." The ck-robed young manzily said as his handsome face smiled coldly.
"Shut up! You are only a brat from an evil and treacherous sect, you have no right to judge us!" the red-robed old man shouted in anger.
The ck-robed young man squinted his obsidian ck eyes and said "There is no need to pretend. This Seat knows you got the information about This Seat''s route from the traitors in This Seat''s ''evil and treacherous'' sect. So in other words you are colluding with the ''evil and treacherous'' sect! Is This Seat right, Mister Right and Righteous?" His words were full of mockery and disdain.
There were ten elders with high-ranked cultivation here and the ck-robed man only had his trusted aide by his side. It was obvious that this ambush was nned very carefully and the enemy already knew long ago that he would certainly take this route.
The ten elders widened their eyes in surprise.
They clearly did not think that this young man had already guessed that there were traitors in his sect''s ranks but that did not matter now because the talented young man would certainly die today!
He had to die! Since if this genius young man grew up, he would surely be a peerless expert in both pen and sword!
All ten elders'' eyes turned cold and they did not bother to conceal their thick killing intent as they charged at the ck-robed young man at the same time.
The ck-robed young man calmly took out his crimson red sword and his trusted aide also took out his ck dual-daggers.
"DIE!!!" All the elders were shouting and releasing their martial art skills at the same time.
[Condensed me sh], [Icicle Pierce], [ck Tiger w], [Earth Spike], [Wind Shredder] and more.....
Ten martial art skills focused on the ck-robed man but he only sneered in disdain while slowly raised his fist.
[Asura King Fist]
BBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!
''Holysh*t! This time the shockwave would probably be far greater than before!'' Tang Li Xue, who was still leisurely watching the battle from quite far away, quickly ran to find cover and hid behind a nearby giant tree.
All ten elders flew backward a few meters but they quickly stabilized their footing on their flying swords while their faces turned pale for a bit. But at the same time, the ck-robed man did not even move an inch.
It was ten against one!
And it looks like the ck-robed man still held a bit of advantage over his opponents!
''BADASS!!! This is what a man should be!'' Tang Li Xue''s eyes shone with adoration as she quietly admired the handsome ck-robed man from behind the giant tree.
"This is it? Now it''s my turn!" The ck-robed man was smiling coldly and slowly raised his blood-red sword. His smile was full of confidence and charm, even Tang Li Xue went into a daze and was charmed by his smile.
''Cool, Handsome, Strong! Full marks! Oh... My dreamy man!'' Thought Tang Li Xue as she wiped the drool that dripped from her fox muzzle.
[Heaven Splitting Wave!]
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Five of the elders'' bodies exploded like gore filled balloons in the sky, their blood and organs sttering everywhere.
But there was no joy in the ck-robed man¡
"Cough... Cough..." The ck-robed man coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood and slowly turned back while his expression became even frostier.
He saw there was a ck dagger stabbed into his left shoulder, it looked like the assant wanted to impale his heart through his back.
"Why..." The ck-robed man wanted to ask why he did this but he stopped his words midway and sighed. Yes... the assant was the ck-robed man''s aide that stood behind him all this time.
"This subordinate... Sorry... I was forced! They... They held my family and told me to....." The aide tried to exin but the ck-robed man did not want to hear what he said anymore.
[Asura King Fist]
BAAAAAANG!!!
The aide wanted to dodge but he could not since the space around him was already locked down by the ck-robed man. The aide''s head burst like a watermelon under the ck-robed man''s fist.
No mercy!
The ck-robed man''s action was so decisive that it sent a chill down the spine of all the spectators who saw it, including Tang Li Xue.
''Cruel and decisive! I like him even more! He is really my type! Truly worthy of being this Lady Deity Candidate''s concubine!'' Tang Li Xue nodded as she sent two thumbs to him in her heart.
The ck-robed man coughed out a few more mouthfuls of blood after he killed his aide and this time his blood was ck! It looked like the ck dagger that was stabbed into his back actually had a very lethal poison smeared on it.
"He... He is poisoned! Look! He is dying! Let''s give him the killing blow together!" One of the remaining five elders shouted and awakened the rest from their daze.
"KIIIIIIIILLLL!!!" Five elders shouted as their eyes turned red, full of killing intent.
"Meddlesome insects! Scram!" The ck-robed man said angrily, he spun his blood-colored sword furiously and his sword''s color turned even redder.
"Nine Petal Blood Lotus, Devour!" The ck-robed man murmured as his blood-colored sword began to emit intense crimson light and devoured the five elders that were charging towards him.
Those close could not see what the intense crimson light''s form truly was, but Tang Li Xue saw it!
''Crazy!!! That Nine Petal Blood Lotus swallowed all those old men in a single moment, not leaving anything behind! All of those old men are pretty strong but that handsome man is truly dominating!'' Tang Li Xue gasped in shock.
Yes, the intense crimson light''s true form was the Nine Petal Blood Lotus shadow.
After he drew out even more of his strength, the poison inside the ck-robed man''s body spread even further and his consciousness began to fade away.
As the ck-robed man passed out, his Qi also stopped supplying power to the flying sword under his feet and he began to plunge downward.
''Oy... Oy... Oy... You won''t die after showing off such a cool performance, right handsome?'' Tang Li Xue sighed, ''How could you fulfill your duty as this Lady Deity Candidate''s concubine if you die here?!''
Tang Li Xue quickly activated her [Dash] skill and ran at full speed toward where the ck-robed man fell.
Chapter 5 - 5: Saving a Handsome in Distress (Part 1)
Chapter 5 - 5: Saving a Handsome in Distress (Part 1)
[Dash skill has increased to Lv2]
Tang Li Xue carefully approached the ck-robed man that was lying still in the nearby bushes.
The long, scattered, silky, ck hairbined with his pale, white skin was truly a perfectbination, his eyes also had long, ckshes that enhanced his handsomeness to another level.
She poked the ck-robed man''s face a few times with her tiny paw and only rxed after confirming that the ck-robed man was really unconscious.
''Uwaaah... This man is... super handsome in close up! Shhhh... Compared to him, the good-looking actors and models from earth are nothing more than pigs!''
Tang Li Xue wiped her drool with her furry paw and started to inspect whether he was still breathing or not.
The ck-robed man was still alive, albeit barely hanging on by a thread.
His wound was pretty bad though, the dagger was stabbed deep inside his back and the poison that had been smeared on it appeared extremely lethal!
The blood that gushed out from his back and mouth had turnedpletely ck now!
Tang Li Xue put her paw on her chin then started to consider whether to save him or not. Looking at the ck-robed man''s condition, if she did not help him now, he would certainly die! But even if Tang Li Xue tried to help him, there was no guarantee that she could save him. In the end, if she failed, she would have done this hard, thankless job for nothing!
''SAVE HIM! It will be a waste of heaven''s gifts if a guy this handsome dies here after all!'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
*DING!
[Quest: (Samaritan) Cure the handsome human, and restore his health!]
[Difficulty: Hard]
[Requirement: [Identify] and [Herbalism] skills]
[Reward: Level +3, Skill Point +3, Stat Point +9, 100 Deity Coins]
[Time remaining: 00:23:46]
''What?! It needs special skills too?! There goes my remaining 2 skill points flying away¡" Tang Li Xue sighed, ''There is even a timer now! 23 minutes remaining?! Dammit!''
Tang Li Xue tapped her skills window with a heavy heart. She hesitated for a moment and nced at the pale-faced, ck-robed man before she gritted her teeth then used her remaining 2 skill points to buy the [Identify] and [Herbalism] skills.
The [Identify] skill was actually used to identify a beast''s species, its strengths, weaknesses, and current HP.
While the [Herbalism] skill''s purpose was to give the user the information to identify herbs and knowledge on their effects.
In other words, Tang Li Xue now had the ability to identify what kind of beasts and herbs would be needed to cure the ck-robed man.
[Heart Melting ck Poison]
[Description: Extremely lethal poison! Once this ck poison enters someone''s heart, no matter how high that victim''s cultivation is, the victim would certainly die instantly!]
''What a vicious poison! But ording to the dagger''s position in his back, he should be dead by now¡''
The bulb in Tang Li Xue''s mind suddenly lit up as a medical term from her previous world came to mind.
Situs Inversus![1]
''Sigh¡ What a lucky guy?! ''
If his heart was positioned normally, this ck-robed man would have instantly died under this ck poison and that aide would have been the one that survived in the end.
However, because the aide stabbed the wrong ce, the ck-robed man had enough time to seal the ck poison with his Qi and counter-killed his aide.
Though now the Qi''s seal was fading away and the ck poison had already begun to spread again. But the seal still managed to slow it down and buy Tang Li Xue some time.
''Handsome, if this Lady really saves youter, you must remember that you cannot be ungrateful, okay?! Even the prince in that mermaid story knew how to repay the mermaid... Though if you dare to marry another woman, I would [bite] your little sausage off!'' Tang Li Xue silently admonished in her mind.
She quickly picked a route deeper into the Moonlight Forest and dashed off. She did not need to worry about leaving the ck-robed man alone since the shockwaves from before already scared all the nearby beasts away. Therefore he should be safe for a while. The deeper she went, the denser the undergrowth and trees in the forest became but this was also why Tang Li Xue chose to go deeper.
[Mystic Grass]
[Function: Can cure slight fevers , can be used to concoct sleeping drugs]
[Side Effect: Mild dizziness for a few hours, can be neutralized by boiling it in water]
''!!!''
So this was the effect of the [Herbalism] and [Identify] skills? So convenient! With this, it would be easier to find the poison''s antidote.
But not this herb¡
[Red-dotted Crystal Flower]
[Function:...]
Not this one either!
Tang Li Xue ran even deeper into Moonlight Forest and wasted more than ten minutes of the time limit but she still could not manage to find anything useful. Moonlight Forest was simply too vast, even if she explored it for tens of years; she still would not manage tob through it all.
[Time remaining: 00:12:24]
''What to do?! What to do?! This is a waste of time! I would not be able to find anything even if I had a few days if I just search blindly depending on my luck like this!''
[Dash skill has increased to Lv3]
Tang Li Xue was panting and out of breath after using [Dash] continuously for thest ten minutes so she decided to take a breath and think.
''Wait!!! Luck!!!''
Tang Li Xue took the [Lucky Sticker] item out of her inventory.
[Author''s note 1: Situs Inversus is a gic condition in which the organs in the chest and abdomen are positioned in a mirror image from their normal positions. For example, the left atrium of the heart and the left lung are positioned on the body''s right side.]
Chapter 6 - 6: Saving a Handsome in Distress (Part 2)
Chapter 6 - 6: Saving a Handsome in Distress (Part 2)
[Lucky Sticker]
[Description: Enhances the user''s luck for 10 minutes]
Tang Li Xue was actually quite pessimistic about this sticker but since she got it from the system, she decided to try it anyway.
''How do I use this thing? Just stick it on my body?''
Tang Li Xue used her tiny paw and stuck the [Lucky Sticker] on her fluffy chest.
[Lucky buff duration: 00:10:00]
Tang Li Xue waited for a few more seconds but nothing happened. She could only say a few curse words in disappointment before running around again to find an antidote herb.
BAAAANG!!!
''Oh no!!!'' Tang Li Xue was running so fast while checking nearby grasses and flowers that she did not realize there was a small hole in the ground.
Usually, the bigger beasts would only stumble on this hole but Tang Li Xue''s body was so small that she ended up plunging deep inside the small hole.
''Ouch¡ Ouch¡ It hurts!'' Fortunately, the ground inside the hole was nted downward so Tang Li Xue only tumbled to the bottom instead of dropping down directly.
HP: 15/50
''So close¡ If it was a chasm instead of a slope I would have died by now!''
Tang Li Xue once again angrily cursed the [Lucky Ticket] in her heart furiously! But when she saw what was in front of her¡
[Seven-Colored Star Grass]
[Function: Miraculous herb that can strengthen the body, neutralize all poisons, and cleanse the body]
[Side Effect: Mild numbing effect on the whole body for a few hours]
''!!!!!''
''This¡ This¡ Is this the power of luck?! So amazing?''
''Oh wait¡ I have no time for daydream! Go fast!''
[Time remaining: 00:09:02]
Tang Li Xue nimbly bit off a few stalks of [Seven-Colored Star Grass] then dash back up the slope and out of the hole. She had taken more than ten minutes to get from where the ck-robed man was to get to the hole, but she only needed seven minutes to return since this time she did not need to check all the herbs and flowers on the way back.
[Time remaining: 00:01:39]
Tang Li Xue was panting crazily and her mind felt fuzzy because of exhaustion, but at least her [Dash] skill managed to level up to 4 because of this.
''Now what to do?! Should I feed him this grass? Or should I crush the grass and smear it on where the ck dagger stabbed him?''
''Argh¡ There is no time! I should pull the ck dagger out first!''
At first, she was afraid that the ck-robed man''s blood would gush out crazily if she pulled it out and he would die because of blood loss¡
But now¡ Screw it! Who cares!
''He will die if I don''t pull the ck dagger out and neutralize the poison in less than a minute anyway!''
Tang Li Xue bit the ck dagger by the handle but that left her small furry body hanging in the air, the situation would actually be reallyical looking if it weren''t so serious.
''Since I cannot pull it out then I will drag it down!'' Tang Li Xue swung her body back and forth like a pendulum then...
PSSSSSSSSST!
The ck blood was really gushing out profusely when Tang Li Xue managed to pull the ck dagger out from the ck-robed man''s back!
''Ooopppsss¡ Bad news!''
She quickly threw the ck dagger aside and chewed [Seven-Colored Star Grass] for a few seconds before she identally swallowed some.
[Strength+1, Toughness+1]
''Ooooh? Damn! This miracle herb is really good stuff! Such a shame to use it on a sick person¡ Ooopppsss¡ Now is not the time for this! Again¡ Chew it slower this time and be sure not to swallow it.''
After chewing it into mush she spat it out and smeared it on the ck wound where the dagger had been stabbed before.
[Time remaining: 00:00:41]
Seeing the timer still counting down, Tang Li Xue quickly chewed another stalk of [Seven-Colored Star Grass], once again carefully, then spat it out and stuffed it into the ck-robed man''s mouth.
''Eeh¡ Isn''t this an indirect kiss? Handsome, you must remember to take responsibility and be this Lady''s concubine when you recoverter!''
Tang Li Xue also remembered that she had 3x [Recovery Pill] in her system inventory so she took one out and stuffed it in the ck-robed man''s mouth as well.
With that, she had already done what she could to save him so she stopped attending to the ck-robed man''s wound and stared painfully at the single leftover stalk of [Seven-Colored Star Grass].
''Only one remaining¡ Sigh¡ Is there any way to breed it? It looks like after this man''s condition has stabilized I will need to go back to that hole and search if there is any remaining [Seven-Colored Star Grass] in there.''
[Quest Completed!]
[Reward: Level +3, Skill Point +3, Stat Point +9, 100 Deity Coins]
[Gained a title ''Samaritan'']
[Samaritan]: When this title is equipped, each time the Hostpletes a quest, the reward will be increased by 25%.
''Woah¡ A title?! Increase the reward by 25%? More good stuff!''

Chapter 7 - 7: Savage Beast, Demonic Beast, and Spirit Beast
''Ok... Ok... Calm down, Li Tang Xue... Pui... I mean Tang Li Xue! No hurry... no hurry... Let''s check it first!''
Tang Li Xue checked the ck-robed man condition''s first and she sighed in relief when she saw his blood already turned back to crimson red and his pale face also turned rosier.
''His wound already began to closing?! This is clearly not [Seven-Colored Star Grass] effect since it''s not mentioned about healing so this must be the effect of my [Recovery Pill]!''
Tang Li Xue baffled and found it really hard to believe that all the items from the system were actually so heaven-defying!
She used the [Lucky Sticker] and manages to find the [Seven-Colored Star Grass] in a few seconds!
The [Recovery Pill] that could recover the ck-robed man lethal injury in a few seconds!
''I must use the remaining 2 really carefully since it''s a crucial item for survival... Let''s check the other items first then!''
Tang Li Xue had 160 deity coins now in her inventory but she still had no clue on how to use it so she decided to leave it for now.
Tang Li Xue took out the [Cultivation Voucher] and tried to use it but...
[Required (Dantian) to start cultivation]
Another item she cannot use!
Tang Li Xue started to feel vexed, she took out another... This time she took out the [Bronze Lottery Ticket] and tried to use it.
[The bronze wheel of fate started to spinning!]
''Ooooh?! It''s really a lottery!''
There were countless prizes written on the wheel but it kept spinning pass it so quickly.
Level +1 to +3... Skill Point +1 to +3... Stat Point +1 to +10...
The wheel started to slow down...
[Recovery Pill]... [Antidote Pill]... [Berserk Pill]...
''Come on... Come on... Just let me get another [Lucky Sticker] and I will be satisfied!''
As a person who has countless misfortunes in her past life, Tang Li Xue had severe mental scars about it so she would feel much safer if she could hold a holy item of luck like [Lucky Ticket] as insurance.
At least, if things were starting to go south, she still has a trump card that could be used to repel the bad luck away.
The wheel almost stopped...
[Lucky Sticker]...
''Yeeeeeees! Yeeeeeeees! Stop... Stop... Stop!''
The wheel finally stopped...
[Congrattion! You got 1x[Bad Luck Sticker] from the bronze wheel of fate!]
Tang Li Xue''s heart dropped down from heaven to hell when she got her notification!
''Bad...Bad... $%&^@#$!!!! Who is Bad Luck?! You are bad luck, your whole family are bad luck!''
Tang Li Xue still fuming with rage so she decided not to check the [Bad Luck Sticker] at all and let it rot at the corner of her inventory.
[2 Times Exp Card(1 hour)] was so easy to understand.
It doubles the exp for one hour so Tang Li Xue decided to leave it forter and active it ONLY when she piled enough food for her to eat it non-stop for one hour!
''Tsk... I am so smart! NEXT!''
[Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] was even easier to understand.
Basically, it was an encyclopedia about all things about this Immortal World, such as history, geography, powerhouse, cultivation level, beast, famous heroes'' biography, dangerous viin ranking, etc.
There were too many information written in it, Tang Li Xue felt her mind would be fried inside out if she read it all so she decided to read only the crucial information for her.
''Let''s read about beast then... I am a beast now anyway! I will leave the rest for after I reach my human formter!''
Even information about beasts was too broad so Tang Li Xue decided to only read the basic information about it.
[The Basic Knowledge about Beast]
The beast in the Immortal world divided into three stages: savage beast, demonic beast, and spirit beast.
However, these stages were actually too broad and hard to implement. For example, rabbit and tiger were actually ssified as the same stage: savage beast, even though their strength''s difference actually like heaven and earth.
That was why the system using the grading system from the Divine World.
In the Divine World, there were 12 grades of beasts and far more urate than the Immortal world''s three stages.
In the savage beast stage, the Divine World ssified the rabbit ss strength as [Poor] grade and [Common] grade for tiger ss strength.
The demonic beast was vastly superior to the savage beast. They were way smarter and far stronger too.
While the savage beast impossible to threaten the cultivators, the demonic beast was actually strong enough to go toe to toe with the cultivators and could use their myriad of skills to even kill weaker cultivators.
The Divine World ssified the weaker demonic beast in [Umon] grade and the stronger one in [Rare] grade.
After ten thousand years or more passed, some demonic beasts have a very small chance to evolve even further and they were what called Spirit Beast in Immortal World.
The Spirit Beast had a very high level of intelligence and perhaps they were even smarter than humans.
When Demonic Beast evolved into Spirit Beast, they will be given two choices: stay in their current form or gain human form!
''HUMAN FORM! So I must reach spirit beast to gain human form?!'' Tang Li Xue expression turned solemn as her heart beating faster and her eyes full of yearning.
If spirit beast chose to stay in their current form, they will gain spirit baptism and their bodies would be transformed and be so strong that it became impervious to de, fire, or water.
However, humanity was actually the most afraid of the second one...
When the spirit beast chose to gain human form, they will lose all their power TEMPORARILY but as a new human, they would have a dantian and they could cultivating like a normal human now but their potential actually far more fearsome than even genius humans.
But what the most frightening was when they reach a certain level in their cultivation, their dormant power as spirit beast''s strength would awaken!
The spirit beast''s strength! Human''s martial art and cultivation! They would have both of them! Just how fearsome they would be?
Unfortunately, most of them were usually killed by humans when still in the growing phase.
The Divine World graded the spirit beasts into two grades too, the new weaker one called [Epic] grade while the stronger and mature one ssified as [Ancient] grade.
The spirit beasts were the pinnacle of existence in Immortal World, if the spirit beast wanted to be stronger and evolve further, they must ascend to Divine World and search for their own opportunity.
TO BE CONTINUE AT INTERMEDIATE GUIDE...
.....
''That''s it?! [Poor], [Common], [Umon], [Rare], [Epic], and [Ancient] only six?! Aren''t there twelve in totals?! Where is the rest?! This guide is really trying to kill me with curiosity!''
Tang Li Xue closed the guide angrily and threw it back to the system inventory.
''Well... ording to this guide, I must evolve 4 times to reach [Epic] grade and regain my human form... Still have a long way I guess. But I manage to reach my 1st evolution in one day! Buahahaha... Only 3 more times! Piece of cake!''
Chapter 8 - 8: Power Up!
Chapter 8 - 8: Power Up!
''Thest is this thing...''
[Level 5 Novice Gift Package]
''Hopefully, I get more good items... OPEN!''
[Gained: 1x2 Times Exp Card(1 hour), 5xRecovery Pill, 5xStamina Pill, 1xGreater Lucky Sticker, 1xSilver Lottery Ticket, 250 Deity Coins, Level 10 Beginner Gift Package]
''OOOOOWWWWOOOOO... GOD BLESS ME! I... I got 1 more lucky sticker and there is ''Greater'' word on it so it must be more powerful?!''
There was nothing new other than [Stamina Pill], just from its name Tang Li Xue could already guess its effect was to restore stamina but do not look down on it since this pill will be extremely useful like if she got chased and did not have any time to rest.
As for [Silver Lottery Ticket], Tang Li Xue knew that her luck has never been good so she decided to use it at the same time when she activated [Greater Lucky Sticker]ter for optimum result.
However, Tang Li Xue already determined to only use [Greater Lucky Sticker] if she was really in critical condition and she has no other way out.
''Okay, that''s it for my items... Now for my evolution... No... No... No... Not now! Not here!''
In whether novel, anime, or movie, evolution always apanied by thergemotion and ended up with great exhaustion then passed out so the first thing she must do was to find a safe ce to undergo her evolution process!
''I should find a safe ce first but this big baggage is a really huge burden on my shoulders... Sigh...''
Tang Li Xue kicked the ck-robed man lightly in annoyance.
What made her the most frustrated was that she did not have enough strength to move the ck-robed man away so she cannot bring him to the safe ce with her and could only guard by his side like this.
''Don''t have enough strength?! Should I really use my remaining free stat points and put it into... Wait... Strength!''
''Isn''t [Seven-Colored Star Grass] could increase strength?! That''s it!''
Tang Li Xue checked the ck-robed man once more, after making sure that he was recovering well, she dashed back toward the deeper part of Moonlight Forest where the hole was.
''Handsome, please hang on for a few minutes! Please don''t get eaten by a lion before Ie back! Well, if the lion reallyes, it would be futile even if I guarding by your side...Nyahahaha!''
More or less one hour has already passed from when the ck-robed man deathly battle and there was a chance for the lion that ran scared earlier woulde back.
Tang Li Xue met with several small animals on her ways like squirrels or snake but she did not waste any time with them and quickly entered back in the dark small hole.
''[Seven-Colored Star Grass], where are you? Come to mommy Tang!''
The hole was dark and quite small only at the size of the palm but there''re many branches likeplicated tunnels; after searching up and down for half an hour, Tang Li Xue only manage to find several stalks of [Seven-Colored Star Grass].
Tang Li Xue sat near the hole entrance while staring at the several stalks of [Seven-Colored Star Grass] and sighed in disappointment.
''Only this pitiful amount?! Sigh... I really expect it too much. Well, I found a hole, not a herb garden after all. Haha...''
However, Tang Li Xue did not know how hard to grow [Seven-Colored Star Grass] was.
[Seven-Colored Star Grass] was a unique miracle herb; the method to raise it was to bath it with starlight at night DAILY every day without miss it even one day.
Moreover, [Seven-Colored Star Grass] cannot be touched by sunlight even once or it would instantly wilt and die!
So the chance of finding the wild [Seven-Colored Star Grass] was actually extremely minuscule.
It was unknown how many luck that Tang Li Xue''s have to find these several stalks of [Seven-Colored Star Grass].
Well, actually if [Lucky Sticker]''s buff was still in effect maybe she would really find a lot more of it.
Tang Li Xue started eating [Seven-Colored Star Grass] slowly one by one while carefully savoring its taste.
The [Seven-Colored Star Grass] was actually tasteless but the cooling sensation that entered her mouth to her throat really made Tang Li Xue addicted.
Her body started to feel warm as a numb sensation began to spread around her limbs.
[Strength+1, Toughness+1]
[Strength+1, Toughness+1]
[Strength+1, Toughness+1]
.....
...
.
''Good Stuff!'' Tang Li Xue said in satisfaction after eating all [Seven-Colored Star Grass] cleanly.
She lied downzily with her bloating stomach while started to daydreaming.
''Now I know why Uncle Sun likes to steal food from Celestial Pce... The food there... Sssss... must be much more delicious and contain tons of EXP...''
Tang Li Xue started to drool again while imagining...
''All of those Xi Wang Mu''s peaches of immortality, Lao Tzu''s pills of longevity, and the Jade Emperor''s royal wine are certainly very delicious and rich of EXP...''
Suddenly hit by a realization, Tang Li Xue suddenly sat and put her tiny paw on her chin to ponder.
''What if... Just what if Uncle Sun was actually a normal monkey at first and he used this system to evolve into an almighty stone monkey in the end?! Not impossible, right?''
''That''s why he always stole and ate all the good stuff in Celestial Pce... If I can go to Celestial Pce, I too would probably do the same thing and jump to reach Deity rank faster!''
''And... Since Uncle Sun already stood at the peak now, he did not need this system anymore so that was why he gave it to me aspensation?''
Tang Li Xue shook her furry head and decided to forget it since it did not matter anymore now; her first aim was to get her human form back first. As for Celestial Pce and Deity rank, it was still too far from her for now.
After digested her food, Tang Li Xue decided to check her current status first.

''Dayum... I am a lot stronger now!'' Even her strength surpassed her main stat, agility...
Some of her skills even leveled up without her realizing it before!
Tang Li Xue decided to save all her stat points and skill points forter use.
Tang Li Xue dashed out from the small hole and headed back to where the ck-robed man was.
She realized that ''toughness'' status actually affected not only her HP amount and her defense but also her stamina endurance.
While ''agility'' was actually affected her movement speed, attack speed, reflexes, and body flexibility.
Then ''strength''? Is it only affected her power? She still did not know much about it but there is still a lot of time, she could research it slowlyter.
After arriving at the ce where the ck-robed man was, Tang Li Xue did not drop her vignce and started to scan her surroundings.
Tang Li Xue bit the ck-robed man''s cor and started to drag him toward the cave where she first woke up.
''So heaaaavy... Urrrrgghhhh! Handsome, if you regain your consciousnesster, the first thing you must do is to thank me! Really, if not I would bite your neck off! And also don''t forget to reimburse my kindness to youter!''
Fortunately, the ck-robed man''s clothes were really resilient. Tang Li Xue did not know what it was made from, but she was really sure that his clothes are very expensive.
Tang Li Xue was dragging ck-robed man really roughly and his head hits the stones on the way several times. Fortunately, ck-robed man has very high cultivation so his body was really sturdy if not, the ck-robed man''s head would already bleeding furiously on the way and died.
''SHUT UP! I am a fox baby, okay?! It''s already a miracle I can save him! Well... I just hope he doesn''t have amnesiater...''
Tang Li Xue did not know to whom she was angry but she managed to drag the ck-robed man into the cave in the end after a lot of effort.
Tang Li Xue lied down on the cave''s cold floor and panted crazily.
Even with her enhanced ''toughness'', it was still a too difficult task for her to drag an a.d.u.l.t human with her tiny palm-sized body.
''Ssssssh... Dayum... Now the long-awaited EVOLUTION TIME HAS FINALLY COME!''
Tang Li Xue impatiently rubbed her tiny furry paws then opened the evolution window.
Chapter 9 - 9: Go! Go! Evolution!
Chapter 9 - 9: Go! Go! Evolution!
At the first evolution list, there was only regr kind of foxes...
[Red Fox]
[Grey Fox]
[Fennex Fox]
.....
...
.
''Only this? I mean... Aren''t this only regr one that even appears on earth? I want the strong one like nine-tailed fox in anime!'' Tang Li Xue squinted her eyes in disappointment.
She knew that the first evolution would have no godlike transformation path like that but at the very least it should have something more OP.
Tang Li Xue scrolled down the evolution window, there was countless kind of foxes name but the lower she scrolled down the rarer the type of the foxes and there was even the requirement for the evolution.
[Swift Fox] [Req: Agility = 15]
[Ripper Fox] [Req: Strength = 15; Agility = 20]
[Snow Fox] [Req: Agility = 20; Toughness = 15]
[Berserk Fox] [Req: Strength = 20; Toughness = 15]
.....
...
.
''Eh... There are some requirements for the evolution now?! Hmmm... Looks like these types of foxes are more formidable than the one in the upper list? Since it''s like that then I will choose the one with the highest requirement! It should be the most OP!''
After searched the list up and down, Tang Li Xue managed to find some type of foxes with the highest requirement.
She began to ponder which one she should choose...
''This first evolution... I am afraid it''s quite important and probably would determine the future evolution path! So I must choose carefully...''
[Shadow Fox] [Req: Strength= 15; Agility = 40; Toughness = 15; could only evolve in the darkest ce]
[Moon Fox] [Req: Strength= 20; Agility = 30; Toughness = 20; could only evolve under the moonlight bath]
[zing Fox] [Req: Strength= 40; Agility = 30; could only evolve in the hot environment]
[cial Fox] [Req: Agility = 35; Toughness = 30; could only evolve in the cold environment]
''What a headache!!! All four sounds badass! Which one should I choose? Ok... Calm down, Li Tang Xue... I mean Tang Li Xue! Think! Which one is the best? Should I roll a dice to determine it?''
''Fortunately, I still save all of those stat pointstely! If I used it immediately each time I leveling up, I would already be screwed up right now!''
Since she cannot find hot and cold ce in this Moonlight Forest, she immediately passed the [cial Fox] and [zing Fox] leaving only [Shadow Fox] and [Moon Fox] as her choice.
''Moonlight forest... Moon Fox... Maybe... Just maybe... that this is fate? Then I will choose Moon Fox! I really like Sailormoon anyway! Haha... Like Uncle Sun known as Monkey King from Mount Huaguo, I would be known as Fox Queen from Moonlight Forest in the future! Bwahahaha!''
Tang Li Xue put 2 of her free stat points to strength and increase it to 20 then 6 stat points into ''toughness'' stat to make it 20 too.
She put the rest 16 of her stat points into agility increase it to 31.
Now she only needs moonlight to start her first evolution!
It was still evening right now so Tang Li Xue must wait until night for moone out so she could begin her evolution process.
Tang Li Xue sat on the mouth cave and gazing at the sunset for a few hours until night came. Her luck was quite good and the moon shone really bright tonight.
''It''s time... Fuuuh... It''s quite excited when I chose it before... but thisst moment is really nerve-wracking now!''
It was not a game after all where she only needs to push a button and ''bam'' evolution finish!
This is real life!
Tang Li Xue thought many things in this few hours... Like...
''Will I in great pain while in evolution process?'',
''Can I give up in the middle of the evolution process and cancel it?''
''What happens if the process failed in the midway?''
''Will there be any danger with my life in the process?''
''Would I die if the process really fails? Will I go back to theherworld and meet Grandma Meng again?''
Tang Li Xue shook her furry head to drive away all of the unnecessary thoughts, she walked to the poolside and sat there then chose [Moon Fox] option in the evolution list.
''Fuuuuuuuh... HERE GOES NOTHING!!! HERE I COME!''
Tang Li Xue''s body started to shine silvery light and absorbs the surrounding moonlight.
''Eh... Ouch... Ouch... Ouch... What... What is this sensation? UUUUUUAAARRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH...''
Well, Tang Li Xue actually not feels any pain right now but she suddenly understood that maybe the great pain was actually a better choice...
''IIIIITTTTTCCCCCHHHHHH... $&%$*$&*^*^&$#@$!''
Tang Li Xue feels extreme itch encroaching her whole tiny body and she started to curse. What was more unbelievable that she was currently cursing nonstop without any repetition in her words at all in her mind?!
''NNNUUUUUUUOOOOOOOHHHH... God just kill me already! Damn f*cker system why there is no option to turn off my pain receptor... No, I mean itch receptor!''
Silvery light on Tang Li Xue''s body became more and more brighter while her surroundings became even more darker.
In a few minutes, the moonlight stopped shining on the surrounding environment and shrunk to only shining at Tang Li Xue''s body and on the ground where she stood up.
Her body also started to grow little by little under the moonlight intense nourishment while Tang Li Xue still busily rolling around everywhere and cursing non-stop to ease the extreme itches on her body.
As the moonlight that shone on Tang Li Xue be more and more intense, it started to form a tiny spark of silver light like silver fireflies.
At first, it was only one spark then it increased to tens of them, slowly rise to hundreds of them and in only half an hour there are countless of them swarming around Tang Li Xue''s body covering up her entire body.
''AUUUUWWWOOOOO!!! I SOOOOOOO IIIIITTTTCHHHH! If I could choose I would rather choose extreme pain over this! At least, I could lose consciousness over pain but it''s impossible to lose consciousness over itch!''
Tang Li Xue still rolling on the ground while twisting her body right and left to reduce the itchiness but rather than reduced the itchiness became even more terrifying instead.
While Tang Li Xue still busying herself to ovee her itchiness, the silver spark keeps increasing steadily and now it began to form a silver giant pir that connecting the moon with Tang Li Xue.
RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡
No one knew what really happened but the ground started to shake violently and the giant pir made from countless silver sparks also be even brighter that it stung every creature''s eyes that see it.
As the silver giant pir shone even brighter, it also turned even more solid like a real pir made from silver.
BBBAAAAAAAAANNNGGG!!!
The silver giant pir exploded into countless tiny fragments like a ss and all of it flew toward Tang Li Xue then entered her body.
Tang Li Xue also felt that her itchiness started to decrease at a rapid pace and her heart jumped in relief and happiness.
In the end, when all the tiny fragments sessfully entered her body, her itchiness alsopletely disappears.
''Aaaaiiiiyoooo¡ Sofortable!!! Haaaah¡ Fuuuh¡ It feels really good to be alive... So tired!''
Tang Li Xue slowly stood up, she felt extremely tired but her body feels so light and full of strength.
She walked to the nearby pool and used its reflection to look at her current form.
Her body already grew from a fox cub as big as a palm into an a.d.u.l.t cat size.
Her fox body looks slender and noble but full of strength, all of her muscles felt more flexible and sturdier now.
''Beautiful and full of dignity¡ Really a form that suited with this glorious fox queen¡ In the near future of course¡''
However, her unique characteristic, her mesmerizing blue topaz eyes did not disappear at all. On the contrary, it became even more enchanting than before.
Tang Yi Xue nodded her head in satisfaction on nced at her new form a few more times. After she got bored with it, she gets even sleepier so she quickly entered the dark cave to sleep.
''There is a warm andfortable bed tonight! Better use it rather than let it waste¡ I am not an innocent ''girl'' anymore anyway! But of course, I am still an innocent ''female fox'' now¡''
Tang Yi Xue jumped to the top of the ck-robed man''s warm body, she yawned theny downfortably on him.
''Aaaah¡ So cozy and warm¡ Like a warming pillow¡ Good night¡''
Chapter 10 - 10: Divine Ability!
Chapter 10 - 10: Divine Ability!
The warm morning sunlight entered from the cave''s entrance.
Tang Li Xue''s body twitched a bit as her consciousness started to clear up.
She slowly opened her topaz blue eyes and yawnedzily then stretched her body around like azy cat.
''Ohhh YES... I remember! Yesterday I just finished my first evolution!''
Tang Li Xue lied down once again on her cozy,fortable, and warm ''bed'' then started to check her new status.

Her HP and stats jumped up 3 times from before along with the free stat points and skill points that she would gain each level up but Tang Li Xue''s attention was not on that right now.
''WHHHHAAAT THE HEEEELLLL IS THAT?! DIVINE ABILITY???!!!'' Tang Li Xue''s mind exploded and she feels like struck by the lightning when she read it; she started to breathe heavily as she quickly check her new divine ability''s power.
[Mirror of the Moon]: User can copy one of any skill/divine ability/martial art that the user sees from any foe/ally.
(Note 1: The previous one would be erased if the user copy more than one skill/divine ability/martial art and only thetest one would be saved)
(Note 2: The skill/divine ability/martial art that the user copy would be strengthened/weakened ording to user current strength/stats)
"CAN COPY ANY SKILL, DIVINE ABILITY, OR MARTIAL ART???!!!! Wooaaahhh...AMAZING! SO OP!!!''
Tang Li Xue eyes almost fell out from its socket and she started to roll around on the top of her cozy warm ''bed'' in happiness.
She was so excited that she almost fainted again.
Moreover, what was said in ''Note 2'' really made Tang Li Xue even more excited!
''Aren''t that mean the skill that I copy can grow alongside with my stats?!''
Of course, it was also mean if the skill she copy was too powerful, the skill would be greatly weakened and adjusted with her current stats too but Tang Li Xue epted that easily since if the skill was far too powerful, it would usually hurt or even kill the user along with his/her enemy in the end if they used it.
Tang Li Xue always fights only for her own survival and not to kill her enemy so she happily epts it...
''Unfortunately, I can only copy one... Sigh¡ If I can copy as many as I like, how good it would be...''
This was always the case of human being even after awakened such a powerful OP skill they still wanted it to be even more powerful... or maybe the case of fox being now...
While Tang Li Xue lied down happily and imagining how she would use her divine ability to copy an OP godlike skill or divine ability, the ck-robed man''s finger that still lied down beneath her started to twitch.
As his blurred awareness started to clear up, he slowly opened his eyes.
His gaze was so cold and full of killing intent like a brutal demon that just crawled out from the hell.
His strong arm moved at incredible speed faster than lightning and held the silver fox''s neck that still liedzily on the top of his body.
The silver fox did not even have any strength to struggle as the ck-robed man''s strength was far too strong.
The ck-robed man swiftly stood up while gathered all of his profound dense Qi in his body ready to attack anyone that he saw.
The temperature around the dim cave began to decrease as the ck-robed man thick killing aura slowly filled the cave chilling Tang Li Xue''s spine.
''Uuueeerrrgh¡ Die¡ I am really going to die¡ Hrrrk¡ Hrrrk¡ Can''t¡ Can''t breathe¡ ''
Tang Li Xue started to really regret her reckless decision to save this cruel thankless demon.
''Aiiihh¡ Unfortunately, it''s toote to regret it! Sorry Uncle Sun, I have wasted your precious system¡ Grandma Meng, here Ie again¡ Please do not make any mistake this time and give me the real happy life with a handsome rich prince¡''
The ck-robed man scanned his surroundings for a while and did not find anything suspicious but he still did not drop his guard and on the contrary, he raised it even more.
However, he quickly aware that the lethal wound on his back did not hurt anymore and used his other hand to try to touch it directly only to find his wound alreadypletely vanished.
The ck-robed man sighed in relief since ording to his judgment, his wound should be really life-threatening if he did not treat it soon, he would certainly die.
Then he started to realize that some people may be identally found him when he still unconscious then help neutralize his deadly poison and heal his woundpletely using some kind of special power since if he was in the hand of his enemy instead, they would not do anything troublesome like that and kill him immediately without hesitation.
The position of the sunlight showed to him that now still in the morning time, the ck-robed man nned to wait for his helper toe back to this cave and he would thank them properly then reward them generously if possible.
The ck-robed man sat back down on the ground and realized that he still holding a furry creature in his hand.
He examined it for a while and found out that the furry creature actually a beautiful silver fox but its eyes already started to roll back and its mouth started frothing.
Chapter 11 - 11: Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei!
Chapter 11 - 11: Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei!
"Hmmm¡ This Seat never sees a fox''s fur as beautiful and soft as this. Could it be you who helped This Seat?"
The ck-robed man shook his head whileughing and mocking at himself silly, how could a savage beast without any intelligent have the ability to heal him.
But out of his expectation, the silver fox in his hand started to nod its head furiously like a woodpecker.
The ck-robed man surprised and loosened his hand out of reflexes but the limp Tang Li Xue would not let this chance for survival pass.
She quickly wiggled out from the ck-robed man''s evil clutch and gave his palm a ruthless [Bite] will all of her strength then she swiftly jumped backward to create some distance with the ck-robed man.
Tang Li Xue was surprised to find that her [bite] with all of her strength failed to injure the ck-robed man''s palm and only leave some teeth mark on it.
"GGGGRRRR!!!"
Tang Li Xue bared her sharp fangs toward him.
Actually, all of this was really not the ck-robed man''s fault. Imagine if the moment you woke up from your sleep to find an unknown furry savage beast lied on the top of you? What will you do?
I still thought that what the ck-robed man''s do still quite kind and reasonable. If it was me, I would probably smack it away with all of my strength and turn it into a meat paste.
''SHUT UP!!! I DON''T WANT TO HEAR IT! I AM REALLY ANGRY! FULL OF HATE! I WANT TO CHOKE HIM BACK! I WANT REVENGE! GGGGGRRRRRRRRR.....''
So narrow-minded¡ But the ck-robed man ignored Tang Li Xue angry expression and still stunned by what happened in front of him.
Even Tang Li Xue''s angry expression surprised him so much.
Because her expression was too human-like!
And she could also understand humannguage?
Even the smartest demonic beast would never have intelligence this high!
"You¡ Are you really a savage beast? Impossible! How could you be so intelligent?! Are you a spirit beast in disguise?!" The ck-robed man asked full of curiosity.
Tang Li Xue quickly sticking out her tongue to mocked him then threw her face toward another direction arrogantly while making ''huumph'' sound.
The ck-robed man became even more dumbfounded as he started to check Tang Li Xue more carefully.
However, from the aura Tang Li Xue''s emitting the ck-robed man was really sure that she''s a true savage beast! Not even a demonic beast!
"Maybe because of some special mutation happen to it? This is a miracle! To think that it has human-level intelligence when in savage beast stage¡ If it really evolves to demonic beastter how smart it would be?! And if it bes a spirit beast¡ Immeasurable!" The ck-robed man said in awe.
Tang Li Xue put an arrogant expression while looking down at him as if she said ''now you know how amazing This Lady is? It''s toote for you to apologize now!''
The ck-robed man let out ''pffffft'' sound and started tough out loud uncontrobly.
Tang Li Xue did not know that this may be the first time for this ''Asura Prince''ughing without holding anything back in 20 years of his life.
The ck-robed man waved his sleeve and Tang Li Xue''s body flew by itself toward him. She did not even have any strength to resist his will.
"Yaaa¡ You are still so young and tiny but your guts are really so big to dare to bite This Seat''s hand! Looks like This Seat will need to punish you a little!" The ck-robed man chuckled mischievously.
When Tang Li Xue saw his naughty handsome face, she felt a really bad feeling surged from her heart! RUN!
"Where do you want to go? This Seat really wants to see how manly you are down there to acting so arrogant?! Maybe This Seat needs to castrate you first before This Seat brings you back to Sect! Hahahaha¡" The ck-robed man said while keepsughing.
However, the ck-robed man''s strength was really too strong whatever Tang Li Xue''s do; she still could not escape from his strong clutches.
He really did like this cute little silver fox. Moreover, this fox already saved his life before even though he did not know how this silver fox did that but he believes it.
Although he had already touched countless fox''s fur before, he could sense that the little thing was very special. Normally, no matter how gorgeous or colorful a fox''s fur were, its fur shouldn''t be this soft, yet caressing this little thing felt as if he was stroking a piece of silk, and was extremelyfortable. Furthermore, it felt so soft and pliable as if it were boneless; although it was still rather tiny, but no matter where he touched it, it felt soft and meaty.
Tang Li Xue already grew a bit but her form was still too adorable like a little cat.
The ck-robed man held Tang Li Xue''s body with one of his hands then used his other one to open her legs.
''GUUAAAAAAAARRRHHH¡ S.E.X.U.A.L HARASSMENT! RELEASE ME, YOU PERVERT! RAPIST! HEEEEEEEELP!''
He wasughing even louder and said: "Yaaa¡ You are a female fox?! Still a little girl yet you are so smug and arrogant! Hahaha¡ From now on, This Seat will teach you how to behave properly!"
''Sniff¡ Sniff¡ I am not pure anymore¡ I¡ I can''t marry anymore¡ Handsome, you must promise to take full responsibility and be one of This Lady''s concubine!''
"Hmmm¡ You need a name¡ Ok, from now on, I shall call you Xiao Bai! How about it? Are you happy that you already have a name? Xiao Bai?" The ck-robed man still smiling happily like a child that got a new friend but his clutch still pushed Tang Li Xue''s down made her cannot move while his other hand started to caress her fur gently.
''Xiao Bai your head! You are Xiao Bai, your whole family is Xiao Bai!''
Tang Li Xue was staring at the ck-robed man with ridicule, disgust, condemn, and anger in her eyes.
The ck-robed man started tough once again when he saw how Tang Li Xue''s behave. The more she acted like that the more he likes to tease her.
"Xiao Bai!" The ck-robed name started to call Tang Li Xue with that name again and again.
''F*ck! Then from now on, your name shall be Xiao Hei!''
"Xiao Bai!"
''Xiao Hei!''
"Xiao Bai!"
''Xiao Hei!''
Chapter 12 - 12: RUN!
Chapter 12 - 12: RUN!
After teasing Tang Li Xue for another ten minutes, Xiao Hei decided to let her off and release her from his clutch. (Well, let''s just call him ''Xiao Hei'' for now since we still did not know his real name and it nicer to hear than ''ck-robed man''.)
Tang Li Xue once again tried to [Bite] his hand but she failed again to leave any wound on it and only manage to leave some teeth mark.
This time Tang Li Xue chose smarter option and ran out from the cave as fast as she can after stole some bite.
Xiao Hei shook his head with a gentle smile on his face while staring at the smug silver fox figure that heading back into the forest; she did not even forget to shake her butt to mock him before entering the bushes.
Heughed once more when he remembers how that c.o.c.ky little fox acted.
When Tang Li Xue vanished from his sight, Xiao Hei sat cross-legged in lotus position back in the dark cave but the gentle smile on his face disappearedpletely reced with his cold unfeeling expression full of killing intent.
"To think that old fart even got Feng Yi (the aide) to act for him¡ looks like he really gets more and more impatient to get rid of me!" Xiao Hei clenched his fist harder while said in a chilling voice full of hatred.
Xiao Hei exhaled and decided to push his entire problem aside for now; He expended most of his Asura Qi in yesterday fight.
Moreover, he also used the rest of his Asura Qi to seal the lethal ck poison in thest moment before he fell unconscious so the lethal ck poison did not spread to his other inner organ.
Now he needs to replenish his currently exhausted Asura Qi as fast as he can before his enemies came to kill him again.
He also needs to head back to his Asura Demon Sect soon before the situation over there deteriorates even more.
Xiao Hei closed his eyes; he started to concentrate on circting his Asura King''s cultivation manual and his Asura Qi slowly restored back.
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after manage to escape from Xiao Hei''s evil clutch and started to curse him in her mind.
''Damn! Really¡ Did I find the courage to save such a demon like him before¡ my head must be kicked by a donkey before! Sigh¡ So hungry¡ Let''s go find some morning snack to eat first!''
Tang Li Xue dashed toward the area where she finds a few hares before and she find her speed soaring to an unbelievable level even without using [Dash] skill but she still use it though since not only it can make her reach that ce faster, she could also level up the skill.
Her agility stat was 93 and it also means she could move 9 times faster than before she evolve, if [Dash] skill added to the calction then she could move 18 times faster!
Of course, it was onlypared to normal humans, not cultivator¡ At the very least her speed was alreadyparable to low ranked demonic beast.
Tang Li Xue felt that her appetite also grow bigger along with her body, she manage to hunt and ate 4 hares until she felt full.
She also managed to realize 2 crucial things.
The first thing was about quest. To trigger the quest, she only needs to be determined to do something like ''eating rabbit'' but the quest will never trigger twice on the same task. The reward would be determined by the system ording to the difficulty of the quest.
The second thing was about the EXP she got from eating. She managed to level up from 1 to 2 only by eating 1 hare before. So logically since her level went back to level 1 after evolution, she also only needs to eat 1 hare to level up to 2 but now after eating 4 hares she still at level 1! Why?
Certainly, she still got notification [EXP gained!] when eating the 4 hares but ording to Tang Li Xue guess, the exp she gained was actually a lot of less, near negligible since the hare is only [Poor] grade while she already evolve to [Common] grade.
Tang Li Xue had a big headache now¡ should she start to hunt a [Common] grade savage beast to level up? Like a tiger or lion?
But as a former human, Tang Li Xue still had a mental barrier to hunt a ferocious wild beast like a tiger or lion!
Well, she was not an amazoness in her previous life after all! Which modern woman ever trying to hunt a tiger or lion?!
''Sigh¡ Fuuuuh¡ Here goes nothing! Tang Li Xue! You are an almighty future Fox Queen of Moonlight Forest! A [Common] grade creature like a tiger or lion is nothing in your eyes!''
Ding!
[Quest: (True King of Jungle) Kill a [Common] grade beast and eat it!]
[Reward: Level+1, Stat Point+15(+4), Skill Point+3(+1), 30 Deity Coins(+8)]
''Eh¡ There is some bonus reward? So this is [Samaritan] title''s use¡ But really 25% is too little, isn''t it?! What a cheapskate! At least it should give me a 100% or 200% bonus reward!''
Again¡ our heroine''s acute greed syndrome was getting more and more severe; unfortunately, no doctor can cure her disease so let''s just ignore it for now.
Tang Li Xue started to patrol around the forest where she met the lion yesterday but she still did not manage to find anything after spending an hour.
Rustle¡ Rustle¡ Rustle¡
Tang Li Xue noticed that the nearby bushes started to shake violently.
''Eh¡ What''s there? Something is moving over there¡ and it''s something big! Is it the lion? Or a tiger? Maybe a deer? Whatever, I should check it out first!''
Tang Li Xue jumped agilely around, passing the thick bushes easily; she already getting more adapted with her new body after more than an hour of moving around this thick forest and intense rabbit hunting session before made her even more skilled.
''Eeehhh¡ HUMANS!!!''
Really¡ meeting with other humans in the middle of this dense forest should be joyful things.
Imagine if you get lost in the forest for a day and did not know where to go then you met with another group of humans suddenly! How happy it was¡ You can ask for direction, ask for some food or drink supply, or follow them out the forest.
Tang Li Xue also immediately felt rxed and happy for a moment but she quickly realized¡ SHE IS NOT A HUMAN ANYMORE!
"Look, big brother! That fox is so beautiful! Its pelt must be worth a lot of money!" The taller hunter said while pulled out his arrow from its quiver on his back then started to aim his bow toward Tang Li Xue.
There were 3 people at total: a taller one, a chubby one, and a bearded one.
Whatever, Tang Li Xue did not have any time to admire on how ugly they are anyway.
Since all of them wearing crude beast skin leather as their clothes, just one nce and she already knows that they must be the hunters from a nearby vige.
''OH NO!!! RUN!!!''
Because Tang Li Xue suddenly turned away and run, the arrow that the taller guy shot missed by a few inches from her tail.
"Be careful! Do not damage its pelt too much! Try to aim its legs first!" The bearded one started to sprint to follow Tang Li Xue while warned hisrade.
''SHIT! I HATE BARBARIAN! I HATE HUNTERS! I swear¡ the first thing This Queen will do after be the Moonlight Forest Ruler is to kick all the nearby viges away!''
Tang Li Xue did not know who but one of the hunters behind him shot another arrow toward her!
The arrow passed Tang Li Xue''s head by a few centimeters made her heart almost jumped out from her throat!
Tang Li Xue ran away even more frantically, she also activated her [Dash] skill in an instant while keep jumping around the bushes, she trying to make the hunters lose her track.
RRROOOOOOOOOAAAAAARRRR~~
''Eh¡ Eh¡ Eh¡ Lies¡ I¡ I must be hearing things right? My luck is not that bad, right?''
But the reality was really that cruel! The lion that she tried so hard to find before was jumped out from nearby bushes in front of her now.
''Why¡ why are you here?! Damn! You are not those huntersckey or ally, right?! Why¡ why the hell your timing is so¡. Arrrghhhh¡!!! Forget it! What I should do now?!''
Hunters on her back! Lion on her front!
Chapter 13 - 13: Combine 3 Skills into 1!
Chapter 13 - 13: Combine 3 Skills into 1!
''What I should do?! Turn right? Turn left? But if the hunters kill the lion, how about my quest?!''
"Big brother, there is a lion in front of us!" One of the hunters shouted to warn the others.
"Kill it first, hurry! Don''t let it hurt the fox! Its precious pelt would be ruined by the lion!" The bearded hunter ordered with his hoarse voice.
''Ohhh¡ They want to help me deal with the lion? Bring it on then!''
Tang Li Xue''s eyes glinted with crafty looks; she did not slow down and still ran toward the lion with her full speed.
The three hunters shot their arrows aim their bows toward the lion and release their arrow at the time.
RRROOOOOOAAAARRRR!!!
Tang Li Xue''s eyes were glowing with a silvery light as she began to use her newly acquired Divine Ability!
[Mirror of the Moon] Active!
Copy start!
Name: [Lion''s Roar] Type: Active Skill
Copypleted!
The hunter''s three arrows precisely hit the lion''s right eyes, left shoulder, and right front leg.
The lion was wailing in pain but Tang Li Xue will not let this chance go.
[Lion''s Roar] active!
RRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRR~~
It was a reallyical sight when a fox let out an intimidating roar like a lion but the effect works wonder.
Tang Li Xue managed to stun the lion right in front of her along with the hunters that still behind her for a second but a second was all she needs to finish the dying lion.
Tang Li Xue immediately pounced toward the dying lion and use her[Bite] skill toward its neck!
PPPPSSSSSSSSS!!!
The lion''s blood was spraying out everywhere furiously like a blood shower as Tang Li Xue''s sharp fang sunk deeply into its neck and tearing up the meat at its neck open.
[EXP gained!]
Ding!
[Quest Completed!]
[Reward: Level+1, Stat Point+15(+4), Skill Point+3(+1), 30 Deity Coins(+8)]
Ding!
[Congrattion! You achieved level 2, +15 stat point, +3 skill point]
''Yeeees! Sess! Questplete and level up! RETREAT!''
Of course, Tang Li Xue will not crazy enough to eat the lion''s meat when there was three hunters behind her back!
She only ate a mouthful piece of lion''s meat from its neck when she [Bite] it to death to finish her quest since the quest said she must kill and eat it but fortunately the quest did not say that she must eat all the lion''s meat to finish it!
Tang Li Xue did not know where to go, she only dashed around randomly and jumping from one bushes toward another one to hide from hunters view.
''Shit! How could they keep up with me?! My speed already this high! Are they android in human skin or what?!''
Tang Li Xue did not know that the human in this Immortal World was full of cultivator even for the men from the small vige, they must train their body until they reach at least third rank body tempering stage or higher before the vige head permit them to go hunting in the forest.
Moreover, these three people was the veteran hunters that reach at least fifth rank body tempering stage so their strength and speed already long surpassed normal a.d.u.l.t human.
[Dash skill has increased to Mastered]
''??? Mastered? After level 5 is mastered? Not level 6? Whatever¡ let''s leave it forter!''
Watching three hunters keep up with her speed and even started to came near her bit by bit made Tang Li Xue more anxious.
''How could this ugly big hunters move faster than me in the forest full of trees and bushes! They are clearly cheating! JUDGE! REFEREE! HEEEELP! THEY ARE CHEATING!''
Well, Tang Li Xue only reincarnated to this Moonlight Forest yesterday but this forest already these hunters home ground for many years; it was not strange that they are more adept in this forest than her.
Actually, the funniest fact was that someone with a cheating system calling other people cheating¡
''SHUT UP! I AM ABOUT TO DIEEE! LET''S THINK SOMETHING FAST! Tsk¡ must I use my remaining free stat points to boost my agility stats?''
But she nned to save all the free stat points for the next evolution so she could boost the stats she neededter until it fulfills the requirement rather than blindly added it now.
''Then let''s use Skill Points to boost my speed first for now! I have 16 skill points anyway!''
Tang Li Xue spend 3 skill points to buy 3 skills at once!
[You have gained Greater Speed ability!]
[You have gained Greater Reflexes ability!]
[You have gained Greater Flexibility ability!]
[Greater Reflexes(Lv1), Greater Flexibility(Lv1), Greater Speed(Lv1) can bebined into Divine Ability [Innate: Agility] with cost 10 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''?????!!!!!''
''Eeeeeeehhhhhh¡ It can bebined into Divine Ability? Even though the cost is quite high but of course I will but it now!''
[You have gained Divine Ability (Innate: Agility)]
In an instant, Tang Li Xue felt a strange energy began to coursing inside her body.
Fortunately, her body did not be extremely itch like when she evolved before.
On the contrary, she felt her body felt so warm andfortable while her bone felt strangely cool like a spring breeze.
The surrounding wind that obstructing her way before turned into an obedient pet that assisting her now.
Tang Li Xue feels her body getting lighter and lighter, everything that shackling her movement before was shattered now!
Wind is her ally that keeps assisting her way! Earth is her friend that keeps her bnce!
''Goodbye, slowpoke! See you next time when this Lady be The Queen of this Moonlight Forest! This Lady will surely get her revenge!''
FWOOOOSH!
Tang Li Xue ran so fast that she only leaving several after image!
"Not good! It''s too fast! How could it be so fast now! Is it still holding back his speed before? Shit! It only ying us like a fool!" The tall hunter said in shock then curse in anger.
"Not good! We will lose that fox soon! There is no other choice! Use our ''Binding Arrow'' and ''Web Arrow''!" The bearded hunter shouted angrily.
"But¡ Big brother, we already nned to use it to catch a Demonic Beast and sell its beast core to big city!" A chubby hunter tried to argue.
"Idiot! Look at that silver fox fur! So beautiful and eye-catching! It must be a rare type of fox! Imagine if we manage to catch it and sell it to the aristocrat family in the big city! How much money can we get? For those rich suckers, one or two bags of gold is nothing! If we sell beast core to that greedy merchant in big city we will only get a few tens of gold coins!" The bearded hunter scolded the chubby one harshly.
"Uh¡ Oh¡ Big bro is right! Big bro, you are so smart!" Chubby hunter started to tter the bearded hunter.
"Let''s go! Prepare to shoot now! We almost toote and let it escapes! Hurry! Shot it before we lose it!" The bearded raised his bow andmanded furiously to the other hunters.
PEEEENG~~
The tall hunter shot one arrow toward Tang Li Xue but this time the arrow he shot did not made from wood but from ck iron and there was a strange inscription inscribed on its surface.
''Nyahahaha~~ with my super speed, super flexible body, plus super reflexes how could an arrow that slow can hit me?! You must be joking! Nyahahaha~~''
Like what she said, Tang Li Xue tilted her body a bit easily dodge the ck arrow and the ck arrow stabbed deep into the ground near her.
However, when the ck arrow touched the ground the inscription on its body started to shine with eerie blood-red light and Tang Li Xue started to feel that her body turned sluggish in an instant.
''SHIT! MY BODY SUDDENLY FEELS SO HEAVY! WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING?!''
"Go! Web Arrow! Catch that fox for me!" The bearded hunter screamed and released the arrow with his bow toward Tang Li Xue.
The bearded hunter''s arrow was different from usual too; it was sparkling with gold color like the arrow made from pure gold but the arrow''s body also inscribed with crimson blood color inscription.
BBBAAAAAAANGGG!!!
The golden arrow exploded in mid-air before it touch Tang Li Xue''s body and forming some kind of binding like spider-webs.
The spider-webs trapped Tang Li Xue''s body in instant and it also quickly tightened up made Tang Li Xue''s body unable to move even a little.
''HUUUGGGYAAAAH!!! HEEEEEEEELP!!! RELEASE ME YOU IMMORAL BAST*RD! WAIT UNTIL THIS QUEEN GET STRONGER! THIS QUEEN WILL CHOMP YOUR HEADS ONE BY ONE! HANDSOME, HEEEEELP! THIS IS YOUR TIME TO REPAY YOUR DEBT TO THIS LADY!''
"Bwahahaha! We did it! We will be rich!" One of the hunters said but since Tang Li Xue cannot even move her neck anymore, she did not know who said it.
Then they began to discuss how they will share their huge profits this time.
After a few minutes and the hunter took the bounded Tang Li Xue and put her into a sack, she began to feel hopeless.
''Sigh¡ Is there no other way? Should I use my one and only trump card¡ the [Greater Lucky Sticker] now?''
Chapter 14 - 14: Sc.u.mmy Xiao Hei!
Chapter 14 - 14: Sc.u.mmy Xiao Hei!
Tang Li Xue tried to pull out her [Greater Lucky Sticker] from her system inventory but since she still cannot even move all of her paws at all, she can''t take it out and stick it to her body.
She could only sigh in resignment; it looks like she can only give up for now and wait for a chanceter.
Just when the three hunters turned their back and ready to head back to their vige¡
FWOOOOOSH~~
A fierce wind de cut off one of the hunter''s hands, the one that holding the sack containing Tang Li Xue.
The blood spurted out furiously made all the hunters stunned in shock and disbelief, only after a few seconds passed the bearded hunter that got his right hand amputated shouting in pain.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!" The bearded hunter kneeled while screaming in pain.
"Big¡ Big brother!!! Who¡ Who did it?" The tall hunter face turned pale in an instant, he shouted in horror and panic.
"LEAVE THAT FOX AND SCRAM!"
Tang Li Xue never realized that this always irritating voice could sound so refreshing in her ear like now.
The three hunters still looking around wanted to find where was that sounde from but they cannot found anything.
The three of them be even more scared and in the end, they started to kowtow.
"Expert¡ we¡ we are very sorry! We¡ we did not know that you like this fox too¡ so¡ Please¡ please, spare us!!!" The chubby hunter pleaded frantically while keep kowtow and hitting his head on the ground again and again.
"That fox is mine from the start! Now scram! If I still see you in one breathe¡"
The three of them ran as fast as they can even before Xiao Hei finished his words. Someone that could cut their arm without being seen must be a master with far higher cultivation than them.
It was already kind enough for the expert to spare their life rather than kill them all and rob their belonging.
Actually, for someone like Xiao Hei, those three hunters were not even worth to waste his time and words. He could kill them easier than killing an ant; At least an ant was harder to see than those hunters.
But killingmoners from the small vige would only lower his own status and dirtied his own hand so he decided to let them go.
Of course, if they say another word or trying to argue with him, he would kill them all without hesitation.
Xiao Hei jumped out from who knows where and opened up the sack then let Tang Li Xue that still bound by the golden web rolled out.
"Aiyo¡ Aiyo¡ Aiyo¡ Who is it? Eh¡ Is it the c.o.c.ky fox that left morning? This seat thought the c.o.c.ky fox is so powerful that it could flip the heaven upside down! Who knows that it caught by THREE SMALLINSIGNIFICANT COMMONERS! Aiyo¡ how disappointing¡" Xiao Hei said with a tone full of ridicule while using his index finger to poke Tang Li Xue''s nose again and again.
Xiao Hei would not let this rare chance to mock this prideful silver fox waste just like that so he did not undo the golden web and tease Tang Li Xue continuously.
''GRRR¡ I¡ WANT¡ TO¡ BITE¡ HIM¡ SO¡ BADLY!'' Tang Li Xue bared her fangs to Xiao Hei and her eyes stared at him full of anger.
"Aiyo¡ so ferocious¡ so scary¡ What to do? This seat is so scared¡ let''s just call that three hunters back and give this scary fox back to them¡" Xiao Hei put a scared act and walked toward where the three hunters ran away before.
[Lion''s Roar]
RRRRROOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRR~~
Tang Li Xue roared in anger toward Xiao Hei.
''Enough! Release This Queen now! Or This Queen will castrate youter!''
"Eh¡ So strange¡ You can even roar? Pffft¡ Hahaha¡ Are you truly a fox? You are acting more like a Lion or a tiger than a fox! You really are good at making people more curious about you!" Xiao Hei walked back with a mischievous smile stered on his face.
''Smelly Xiao Hei! Sc.u.mmy Xiao Hei! This Queen will remember this!''
Xiao Hei still did not release Tang Li Xue from her bind, he only carried her on his shoulder like a sack and bring her back to the cave.
When they entered the cave, Tang Li Xue''s sensitive nose started to twitch.
''This smell?! Such a familiar delicious smell! Is it real?''
Xiao Hei put the bound Tang Li Xue on the corner of the cave then he continues back to roast his meat barbeque.
Tang Li Xue did not know what kind of beast was that; it looks like a wild boar but it has four tusks.
The fragrant roast meatbined with spice and c.u.min vor filled the air made Tang Li Xue started to salivate crazily.
"Wow¡ So delicious! Tsk¡ Tsk¡bination of spice and salt to roast meat is really yummy!" Xiao Hei said while making his chewing sound louder on purpose.
''What a genuine bast*rd! SO HATEFUL! THIS QUEEN WANT REVENGE! Oh no¡ THIS QUEEN WANT ROASTED MEAT SO BADLY!''
Xiao Hei nced at Tang Li Xue and found out that she stared at him with a pitiful pleading looks.
"Ahahaha¡ So you are giving up atst? I thought you are tougher than this! Sigh¡ Look at you now¡ So sweet and cute! You should make that kind of expression more often! This Seat dares to bet that kids and girls would go crazy over you in no time!" Xiao Hei chuckled while swung her right hand lightly.
Tang Li Xue realized the golden web that binds her all this time snapped in an instant like a dry twig.
Xiao Hei was smiling gently as he took out an expensive-looking te from his spatial ring and started to cut a thick roasted meat onto the te then put it on the floor.
Tang Li Xue rushed toward the expensive-looking te and started to devour the fragrant roasted meat greedily.
''This fragrant smell¡ This exquisite taste¡ How long is already been since thest time I taste this?! I already forgot¡ THIS¡ IS¡ THE¡ REAL¡ FOOD!''
Tang Li Xue started to tear up as she gnawing at the roasted meat non-stop. She did not even notice the system''s message and therge amount of EXP that started to flow in.
[Congrattion! You achieved level 3, +15 stat point, +3 skill point]
"Eat slowly¡ Be careful or you will be choked to death by it! Just rx¡ no one would snatch it from you!" Xiao Hei said with a gentle tone and his hand started to caress Tang Li Xue''s soft fur.
Her silver fur always shines with a dim mysterious silvery light, it was also so soft like cotton and smooth like the highest grade of silk. It even made a cold-hearted demonic young man like Xiao Hei addicted to touching it.
Xiao Hei waited for Tang Li Xue to finish her meal patiently. After she finished all of the boar meat by herself, Xiao Hei started to talk to her seriously.
"Xiao Bai, This Seat¡ I need to leave this ce and go back to my sect. I owe you my life but that is not my reason why I invite you¡ What I really want to say is that I really like you! Would you like to go back with me to my sect?" Xiao Hei said with a tone full of gentleness and pleading,
He even stopped using ''This Seat'' to begged to Tang Li Xue. He never had been this sincere like this before in his life.
He also keeps staring at Tang Li Xue a pair of glittering eyes with eyes full of longing and anxiety.
This should be a really touching scene between a young man and a young girl unfortunately one of them is a human while the other is a fox.
Tang Li Xue stared at Xiao Hei with full of seriousness in her eyes.
The time passed one second after another¡ made Xiao Hei even more anxious.
Slowly, Tang Li Xue''s eyes filled with ridicule as she spat on the ground full of disdain.
''Want me to go with you?! Dream on! This Queen''s home is only this Moonlight Forest! Sc.u.mmy Xiao Hei, just go! This Queen already bored to see your face!''
Tang Li Xue turned around with her back facing Xiao Hei and walking deeper into the cave.
Xiao Hei''s expression was full of disappointment as he says: "Sigh¡ and here This Seat thought to make this kind of roasted meat every day for you¡"
Tang Li Xue turned back and jumped toward Xiao Hei while thinking.
''You¡ You did not lie, right?! You will make this roasted meat to me every day! Three times a day! Not less! You must make me more! You promise! If you dare to lie I will turn you into a eunuch!''
"Pfffft¡ Ahahaha¡ Ok¡ Ok¡ Xiao Bai, I promise I will make the most delicious roasted meat for you every day!" Xiao Heiughed out loud, so free, and unrestrained while hugging a soft silver fox in his embrace.
Xiao Hei took out a flying sword and jumped on the top of it with Tang Li Xue still liefortably on his arm.
The flying sword started to fly; the speed was faster than sound speed but Xiao Hei put a transparent barrier on his body so the fierce wind that blowing did not bother him and Tang Li Xue at all.
Tang Li Xue looked at the Moonlight Forest from the sky and realized that the ce where she lives was only at Moonlight Forest periphery. That was why she only met with savage beasts all this time and no demonic beast around.
She even saw arge winged lizard flew at the depth of the Moonlight Forest and there was a gigantic python jumped up from the big tree then ate therge winged lizard as if it was a snack.
Tang Li Xue shuddered in fear; fortunately she never really entered too deep inside the Moonlight Forest or she would certainly die without any corpse left.
''Goodbye, Moonlight Forest! But remember, the next time Ie back is the time that I would be the Rightful Queen of the Moonlight Forest!''
Chapter 15 - 15: Oh No! I Changed My Mind!
Chapter 15 - 15: Oh No! I Changed My Mind!
After a few hours of flight, Tang Li Xue started to get really bored as she yawnedzily on Xiao Hei''s arm.
''Just how far is Xiao Hei''s sect?! For god sake, we have already flown at the speed many times of the jet ne and a few hours of flight with this speed should be enough to orbit my previous world for one round!''
Moreover, the surrounding was so blurry since they flown at an imaginable speed and Tang Li Xue cannot enjoy any scenery at all.
However, Tang Li Xue realized that several times passerby people or some demonic beasts approaching them. It looks like they have bad intentions and want to look for trouble but Xiao Hei terrifying pressurebined with his chilling gaze full of murderous intent easily drives them all away.
Tang Li Xue did not really get it ''what are they so scared about'' but that people and demonic beasts were not a fool, the person that could emit such horrifying pressure certainly have very high cultivation and Xiao Hei''s murderous chilling gaze means that he already killed a lot of people, if it was not three digits then he must be already killed four digits worth of people.
''What a dangerous world! Sigh¡ I started to miss my previous world¡ though it''s also quite messy but at least there''re polices andws to maintain order. Unlike this world¡''
She became even more motivated to get stronger faster and started to check her current status.

''Not bad! I already pretty strong now, right? At least the tiger or lion will not possess any threat to the current me!''
Tang Li Xue checked her new divine ability to know what effect it would bring to her.
[Innate: Agility]: the effect of Agility status on user will be tripled.
''????????!!!!!!!!!!!''
''WHAAAAAAT?! TRIPLED?! Isn''t that means my current speed right now equals to 279 in agility stats? Wuahahaha¡ YEEEEESSSS! Another OP divine ability in my repertoire!''
Tang Li Xue was really happy that she manages to find another secret feature from the system. She felt that her system was like a giant treasure box that waiting for her to uncover its secret one by one.
So she couldbine maybe 2, 3, or more skills into one OP divine ability with Skill Points as the cost!
Moreover, there were more than several thousand choices of skills in the system''s list so there were countless possible ways tobine them.
''Then I can create [Innate: Toughness] with thebination of [Greater Defense], [Greater Stamina], and [Greater Health]? Then how about [Innate: Strength]? Meh¡ I have not enough Skill Point! I will need 13 Skill Points to buy andbine them¡ Let''s just set it aside for now!''
Tang Li Xue decided to forget it for now since she currently only has 6 Skill Points and turned her attention to her [Dash (Mastered)] skill.
''Mastered? What is it mean? Is it means the level already reaches the maximum and I cannot level it up anymore?''
Tang Li Xue tried to tap it and another windowing out¡
[Dash skill already reached Mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Sprint with cost 3 Skill Points?]
''It could be upgraded too after reached mastered? Damn¡ system, just how many secret features that you still have?! Sigh¡ Another 3 Skill Points will be gone this time¡Whatever¡ I just need to do more quests and eats moreter! ACCEPT!''
[Dash ability upgraded to Sprint ability!]
[Dash] skill disappeared from her status and changed into [Sprint (Lv1)].
Tang Li Xue did not know the exact effect from [Sprint] skill since she still has not tried it yet but she guessed that it probably increasing her running speed more but also draining her stamina faster too so she must use it with more caution.
However, from the experience that she got from the three hunters, she learned that speed was also not absolute! She could still get caught even with her speed tripled by her divine ability in the end.
And the one that caught her was threemoner hunters without any status and money! So, she quickly concluded that the people with more money and status in this world would definitely have more cards to y than them.
After racking her brain for a long time, Tang Li Xue came to one solution...
The true key for her survival should be in [Hide] skill!
She believes rather than running away, it would be more convenient if they cannot find her at all in the first ce.
She could also mount a sneak attack on her prey or enemy using this [Hide] skill!
Since this skill [Hide] can grant temporary invisible status to the user!
Unfortunately, the w was also fatal¡ she cannot move when this [Hide] skill still in effect or the invisible status would be nulled.
But now with this skill upgrade features, she had more confidence if she upgrades it high enough, even someone like Xiao Hei would be hard to find herter.
Moreover, she started to suspect that [Hide], [Trail Cover], [Silencer], [Odorless], and [Erasing Presence] skills could actually bebined into one more OP divine ability! Unfortunately, again¡ she did not have enough Skill Point to buy them all andbine it for now¡
''Meh¡ Whatever, I will work hard to upgrade [Hide] skill first since I only have 3 Skill Points now.''
Tang Li Xue decided that the first thing she would do after arrived at Xiao Hei''s sect was to train her [Hide] skill crazily.
Not long after that, Xiao Hei and Tang Li Xue arrived at the bottom of a deep ravine.
Tang Li Xue saw arge red calligraphy as if it was written by blood on the ravine wall.
"ASURA DEMON SECT"
''Eeeerrr¡ Xiao Hei¡ Is this really your home? Isn''t this ce a little bit too dark, gloomy, and scary¡''
However, when Tang Li Xue stared at Xiao Hei''s face, what she found was not her usual sc.u.mmy that like to tease her but a noble, cold, and arrogant young man covered with a suffocating aura.
''What''s wrong with him? Isn''t usually people would be more rxed when they go back to their own home? Why I feel that Xiao Hei is like going to war rather than going home?''
After walking for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue saw a pair of fully armored guards guarding the gigantic gates on the ravine wall.
The gigantic gates were made from a mysterious ck metal; it looked so ancient and sturdy with four giant demons engraved on it.
"Wee back, young master!" The two armored guards bowed full of respect and greeted Xiao Hei politely.
Xiao Hei only answered them with ''um¡''zily without changing his cold expression and the gigantic ck gates started to open by itself.
''Ceh¡ Pretending to be cool guy now? But really... the atmosphere sounds very wrong¡ That two guards just now maybe look at Xiao Hei full of respect but I noticed that they actually surprised? Why? Because hees back too quickly¡ or because they think that Xiao Hei should note back anymore?''
Tang Li Xue still in deep thought while the gigantic ck gates already opened but before Xiao Hei could enter¡
"Well¡ Well¡ I think who ising today so it''s my dear nephew. I thought you will note back¡ thiste. You are very lucky to note back toote for your grandfather''s birthday tomorrow."
Xiao Hei stared at the person that talks to him; he squinted his eyes that full of hatred and murderous intent but he suppressed it in an instant and sneered coldly back at that person while saying: "Uncle, This Seat took his time to pick grandfather''s gift carefully and not aware of the passing time but this small problem should not be uncle''s business, right?"
Tang Li Xue was staring at Xiao Hei''s uncle that stood in front of Xiao Hei right now.
A chubby plump guy with the expression that always smiling like Maitreya Buddha and wearing ck clothes with the same model as Xiao Hei but Tang Li Xue knew that behind that smile was hiding the most poisonous snake.
''Oh, God!!! It looks like I really made a mistake this time! These are not heavens at all but the poisonous snakes breeding nest!''
Xiao Hei¡ I thought you are the boss here since you always said ''my sect this, my sect that''! Dammit, you liar! I changed my mind! I want to go back to Moonlight Forest now! Xiao Hei, BRING ME BACK NOW!''
Chapter 16 - 16: This is Not Your Character at All!
Chapter 16 - 16: This is Not Your Character at All!
Tang Li Xue really wanted to cry but there were no tears thate out.
Ok, the forest may be really dangerous for a fox like her but could the danger higher than an evil sect full of scheming people with high cultivation?
''Aiissss¡ Such a bad luck! Why is my luck always bad since my previous life?! Sigh¡''
"Of course not¡ It''s just that I as your uncle worried about your well being! What if something happen to you on the way? I will not be able to forgive myself if that really happens! Oh yeah¡ By the way, where is your right-hand man that always follows you everywhere?" Xiao Hei''s uncle put exaggerating act as if he really worry about Xiao Hei.
But his act was too fake or maybe he deliberately make it like that to provoke Xiao Hei but from hisst question asked about the traitorous aide, Tang Li Xue guessed that he deliberately trying to provoke Xiao Hei.
''What an irritating fatty! As I expect from the Sc.u.mmy Xiao Hei''s uncle! Even I want to p his face so badly right now!''
Xiao Hei was fuming with anger, his eyes bloodshot and his hands were clenched together tightly to the point where his nails started to pierce through his skin.
Gritting his teeth, Xiao Hei wanted to jump out and kill his uncle so badly but he had no choice but to contain himself.
He closed his eyes for a moment and inhaled deeply while keep whispering to himself: ''This is not the time yet¡ Not now¡ But soon¡''
When Xiao Hei exhaled, he calmed down a lot and slowly opened his obsidian eyes again.
"Thank you for uncle concern but This Seat is healthy and well right now! As for Feng Yi, he has another important thing to do so we split up on the way here. This Seat is tired now so This Seat will not disturb uncle anymore¡" Xiao Hei saluted his uncle and entered the gate.
''Oi¡ Oi¡ Oi¡ You leave now?! Just like that?! This¡ This is not your character at all! Aren''t you like those MC in the wuxia novel?! cruel, decisive, overbearing, and OP?! You should just beat that ugly fatty like a crap or crippled him with one hit! Don''t force This Queen to change your name into Xiao Niang Pao (Little Sissy)!''
Xiao Hei did not have any time to care about Tang Li Xue''s curse as he had many urgent things to do so he brought her into his pce and leave her there for now.
¡.
¡
.
"What a tenacious little c.o.c.kroach! He could even survive after all of that ambush? Tsk¡ A bunch of useless trash! And they still dare to call themselves the elders from virtuous sect?! It looks like I must revise my n a bit and start to take him more seriously!" The kind-looking fat uncle was no more when Xiao Hei''s uncle went back to his own room reced by a sinister-looking fat old man.
"Mas¡ Master¡ What This Subordinate should do to the hostage?" The ck-clothed man kowtowed deeply until his head touched the ground and asked with a barely edible tone.
"Do you really need to ask? Get rid of them all! That aide is really f*cking useless! I even give him my most treasured poison, Heart-Melting ck Poison and that trash is still failed! Really wasting all of my time and money for nothing! Search for his news if he died then it''s okay if not then I will make sure he will be wishing to die every single minute!" The sinister fat uncle gritted his teeth full of anger.
The ck-clothed man quickly went out of the fat uncle room in a hurry, his clothes were drenched wet in sweat. No one knows how cruel this fat man was better than him and what that uncle''s said, he will definitely do it. Not because of loyalty or money but it was because that old man was simply too scary and crazy.
Tang Li Xue did not know that even though Xiao Hei was cold and overbearing but he actually a decent man but his uncle was different. Calling that uncle ''viin'' was looking down on him far too much, while ''insane'' word was still too kind for him and could only barely able to describe him.
"What a pity¡ he has a really good self-control¡ If he dares to attack me back then on the gate I will surely ''identally'' crippled his dantian! No one can me me if he is the one attacking me first¡ Hehe¡" He sneered coldly while mocked at Xiao Hei.
Sigh¡ father¡ Oh, father¡ Why are you always sided with Zihao? Now Zihao already died, you even sided with his son, Zhiyun! Am I really not good enough in your eyes?" Fat uncle sighed in disappointment while walking toward the nearby window. The weather was quite nice with a blue sky without any ck cloud but it did not fit with his current feeling right now.
"Father¡ Please, do not force my hand¡ or I will¡"
His voice became fainter as he squinted his eyes dangerously. The cold murderous aura emitted from his body was many times thicker and more terrifying than Xiao Hei.
¡.
¡
.
As someone sickly in her previous life, Tang Li Xue already lied down in her own small room for many years before, until she forced to work because her big brother diagnosed as being in a vegetative state.
So how could she ept that even after be reincarnated into a mighty fox with system, she still must stay in the room quietly like before?!
In the end, she sneaked out from Xiao Hei''s room to sight-seeing around the Asura Demon Sect.
''Sigh¡ Xiao Hei''s room is really full of expensive stuff! If I can bring one of it into my previous world¡ No, since I cannot go back then I only need to bring it out of here and sell it! But unfortunately, I am a fox now¡''
Tang Li Xue proceeded carefully while keep using his [Hide] skill since she already determined to upgrade it even further.
Chapter 17 - 17: Fierce Internal Conflict!
Chapter 17 - 17: Fierce Internal Conflict!
Tang Li Xue observed Asura Demon Sect''s surroundings and finds out that all the buildings follow ancient Chinese architecture.
Basically, the buildings almost like the Forbidden City in her previous life but far more extravagant with 2 or more floors, there were also many pagodas that keep releasing some kind of strange vibes and it looked like arranged in some kind of array covering the entire sect but Tang Li Xue did not its exact function and could only guess it.
The natural made wall that covered the entire Asura Demon Sect also has strange inscriptions carved on it and Tang Li Xue felt that it has some strange connection with the pagodas.
Tang Li Xue also realized that most people in this Asura Demon Sect were actually not guards but disciples. Countless disciples with different uniform colors were walking back and fro, Tang Li Xue guessed that maybe there are about hundreds of thousands of disciples in here but because Asura Demon Sect was too big and vast, it still did not feels cramped at all.
But the one that made Tang Li Xue happy was the fact that all the buildings here were so big and tall while her body''s very small so there were the countless blind spots where she could hide.
Just like now¡ She listened to some disciples gossips from the corner of the park while activating her [Hide] skill!
"Hey, do you hear that our little patriarche back just now?"
"Yeah¡ I know. Well, he is a good guy but you know¡ our Grand Elder is so scary. No one will dare to side with the little patriarch¡"
Well¡ Let''s just skip all the unimportant part! Even Tang Li Xue spent few hours of her time to hear all their stories and opinions. To summary it all, Xiao Hei''s situation was not looking too good.
Xiao Hei''s father, Mo Zihao was a wise patriarch and also a cultivation genius. Under his rule, the sect became abundant of resources and be more flourished in only five years. His cultivation also proceeded steadily and it would not take too long to catch up with the previous patriarch, Xiao Hei''s grandfather, Mo Chanming.
However, his uncle, the fatty Mo Chonglin felt threatened by Mo Zihao''s achievement since he already coveted the patriarch position since a long time ago.
Three years ago, Mo Zihao fell under Virtuous Sect''s sudden ambush. Well, no matter what people think, this thing was too suspicious and reek of someone scheme. (Isn''t it just like what happened to our Xiao Hei?)
But since there was no more witness and evidence, the investigation was stopped in the end.
Of course, Xiao Hei''s grandfather, Mo Chanming suspected that this was the fatty Mo Chonglin''s scheme so Mo Chanming purposefully made it hard for the fatty and directly gave patriarch position to Mo Zihao''s son, Xiao Hei¡. Err, his true name actually Mo Zhiyun.
Mo Zhiyun himself was a super genius even more talented than his father. But he was only 15 years old when he became patriarch three years ago, it was also a given that his cultivation still falls far behind the 40 years old fatty Mo Chonglin.
Unfortunately, Mo Chonglin''s ambition was really big and he also very patient, he already started nning all of these for more than twenty years ago. His influence already rooted too deeply inside this Asura Demon Sect and his people were scattered everywhere on every corner of the sect.
While Mo Zhiyun was just a teenager when he held his post as Asura Demon Sect''s Patriarch. Luckily, his grandfather was silently supporting him from behind the scene or our Xiao Hei would not live long enough to meet Tang Li Xue.
However, Mo Chanming was already too old and his time probably not long anymore. That was why he did not punish or kill Mo Chonglin and only bid more time for Mo Zhiyun.
On one side, Mo Chanming was using Mo Chonglin as a whetstone for Mo Zhiyun so he (Mo Chanming) could force Mo Zhiyun to mature faster also made him (Mo Zhiyun) to learn from Mo Chonglin and be more cunning and decisive.
After all, even if Mo Chanming killed Mo Chonglin with his own hand now, there was no guarantee that Mo Zhiyun will not face the second and the third Mo Chonglin in the future! What would happen to the Asura Demon Sect if that really happen in the future when he (Mo Chanming) diedter?! Could Mo Zhiyun strong enough to defeat the second and the third Mo Chonglin when Mo Chanming was no more in this world?!
On the other side, Mo Chonglin was also his son. If there was really no other choice or if something bad really happens to Mo Zhiyun then Mo Chonglin will be hisst resort to be the patriarch of his Asura Demon Sect.
To be exact, Mo Chanming also cannot be med for his indecisiveness since the two of them was equally outstanding.
Mo Zihao and Mo Zhiyun was cultivation genius while Mo Chonglin''s gift was his cruelness and cunningness. Actually, in Evil Sect such as Asura Demon Sect, the cruelness and cunningness were more important unlike in the Virtuous Sect where cultivation talent was everything.
But Mo Chanming did not like the fact that Mo Chonglin''s cruelness and cunningness was not only directed to enemies but also to his own family, sect people, and even to himself. That was why Mo Chanming became more supportive toward Mo Zihao''s side.
The current support distribution in Asura Demon Sect was 20% for Mo Zhiyun, 40% for Mo Chanming, and 40% for Mo Chongli, but this was only on the surface! No one really knows, how many exactly Mo Chongli''s supporters were and he also really likes to y pig to eat the tiger?!
The situation inside The Asura Demon Sect right now was in stalemate! That was also why Mo Chongli chose to act against Mo Zhiyun outside the sect.
''Well¡ This is not a business for a little fox like me can handle so let''s just forget for now! Xiao Hei¡ Ah, Xiao Hei¡ I really want to help but you know¡ I am not a mary sue with OP medical skill or S-rank assassin from another world or a person reborn with future memories or whatever OP crap it is and my system also cannot help you at all¡ so I can only wish you luck!''
Tang Li Xue used her {Hide} skill again while heading to another ce after she was done eavesdropping the disciple''s gossips.
[Hide skill has increased to Lv5]
¡..
¡
.
''There is even a farm here?! Are there even demonic beasts locked up inside? I already decided that I wille here again to check it after upgrading my [Hide] skill!''
Tang Li Xue was strolling around the Asura Demon Sect for a few hours from Martial Depository where they keep martial art and cultivation books to the kitchen in the end.
After sessfully stealing¡ cough¡ cough¡ I mean tasting several dishes to be exact emptying many tes of dishes in the sect''s kitchen without anyone knowing using [Hide], Tang Li Xue finally manage to reach [Mastered] level in [Hide] skill.
[Hide skill has increased to Mastered]
''Atst!!! After wasting several hours and use [Hide] skill for so many times until I want to puke!!! Dayum¡ Let''s see what skill it will be changed into?!''
[Hide skill already reached Mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Stealth with cost 3 Skill Points?]
''YES!''
With this, her Skill Points was really exhausted to 0 now.
Chapter 18 - 18: Power-Leveling the Skills Up!
Chapter 18 - 18: Power-Leveling the Skills Up!
After satisfied filling her stomach with the proper delicious human food, Tang Li Xue decided to go back to Xiao Hei''s room.
She also tested her new [Stealth] skill on her way back and realized many new things.
Unlike [Hide], when using [Stealth] she could actually move around without breaking her invisible status but she could not use her other skill such as [Sprint] or her invisible status will break.
Another w when using [Stealth] was she also cannot touch any object while in invisible mode even something liquid like water. Fortunately, something like water vapor or smoke will not affect her [Stealth] at all.
But Tang Li Xue was quite satisfied with her [Stealth] since she could move around without being seen much more easily than before. Moreover, her agility was already quite high now and her passive divine ability [Innate: Agility] actually stacked with [Stealth].
Tang Li Xue entered Xiao Hei''s room but finds out that he still has not gone back yet.
Then she remembers that fatty uncle said about Xiao Hei Grandfather''s birthday tomorrow and she also heard from the guards on her way that Xiao Hei went into the deep Moonlight Forest to find a special fruit to extend his grandpa''s longevity as his birthday gift.
''Xiao Hei must be busy preparing for his grandfather''s birthday tomorrow¡ That''s why he is still note back even until now!''
''Ssshhhh¡ So boring! Bast*rd Xiao Hei! Dump me in his room as soon as we went back! What kind of woman does he think I am?! ... Why is it sound so strange? Meh¡ Well, I am bored anyway!''
Then a light bulb shed in her mind as she thought: ''Eh¡ Since I don''t have anything to do¡ why I don''t try to level up all my skills to mastered?! Hahaha¡ I am so smart!''
She still has [Bite (Lv5)] and [Scratch (Lv2)] that have not reach mastered. As for [Identify (Lv3)] and [Herbalism (Lv3)], she did not even know how to level it up since it levels up by itself when she saw several herbs so she decided to leave it for now.
Tang Li Xue jumped on Xiao Hei''s soft bed and stared at his pillow whileughing mischievously.
[Scratch]! Again¡[Scratch]!... [Bite]! [Scratch]!
[Scratch skill has increased to Lv3]
[Scratch skill has increased to Lv4]
After ruining Xiao Hei''s pillow and bed for good, she changed her target to his nket, bed curtain and carpet then started to spam her both of her [Scratch] and [Bite] skill again and again.
[Scratch skill has increased to Lv5]
[Bite skill has increased to Mastered]
''Damn! This is AWESOME! Why I never think to level up all of my skills this way before?!''
When she thinks cave''s hard floor and wall and the forest that full of danger¡ well, in that kind of environment she would not have any kind of luxury to level up her skills in this strange way.
''Now I understand why all the housepets tend to ruin its owner furniture! Sigh¡ What a pity, my [Scratch] skill only needs 1 more level up to reach mastered!''
Tang Li Xue looked around Xiao Hei''s room and her gaze locked on Xiao Hei''s wardrobe, she snickered full of evil intent and opened it up.
[Scratch skill has increased to Mastered]
After all of Xiao Hei''s clothes shredded into pieces by her ws, she started to feel a bit guilty for Xiao Hei.
''Maybe¡ I am doing it too much¡ Meh¡ It''s his fault for abandoning me after going back! He doesn''t even bother to give me food today! And he already promised to give me the roasted meats three times every day!''
Tang Li Xue activated her [Stealth] and dashed out of the Xiao Hei''s room.
Since she knew that Xiao Hei would be so pissed offter when he finds out about it, she would not be stupid enough to still sleep in his room as if nothing happened at all.
There were many empty rooms in the Asura Demon Sect anyway so she only needs to pick one randomly to sleep for tonight.
¡..
The time already so pressing and Xiao Hei did not have any time tox now.
Handling his grandfather''s birthday party was his job as the current patriarch and the party was tomorrow but he only managed toe back today so many of the jobs required him to supervise and he also needs to instruct something like money expenditure, food that will be served, decoration that must be used, etc.
There were still some jobs left unfinished but he decided to leave it for tomorrow since he already too tired both physically and mentally today and now already midnight.
When heading back to his room, Xiao Hei remembered about his Xiao Bai and felt really guilty abandoning her as soon as he got back here. He even broke his promise to ''give roasted meat to her every day'' today.
Xiao Hei turned around and went to the kitchen, there was no one in there at this hour so he went to pick some fresh meats and began to roast it by himself.
There were some guards or disciples that still patrolling around even at the midnight and they shocked beyond words when they find out that their little patriarch has a new hobby now: making roasted meat by himself at midnight!
Xiao Hei ignored all of their strange stares and brought arge te of sliced roasted meat back to his room.
When Xiao Hei entered his room and saw his wrecked bed, his first thought was some thieves or his uncle''s people came in to search for something.
PRAAANG!!!
The te full of roasted meats shattered as Xiao Hei dropped it to the ground and he began to panic. There were no important things inside his room but if those thieves find his Xiao Bai and doing something bad to her¡
"Dammit! I will skin all of those people that dare to do this alive!" Xiao Hei said with his chilling voice full of killing intent.
But when he inspected it closer¡ he managed to find his bed, pillow, bed cover, all of it have many traces that they ruined by ws and fangs.
Xiao Hei sighed in relief¡ so it was his Xiao Bai that doing all of this¡
But after relief, as his tiredness and dizziness began to assault him, he felt his anger surging up uncontrobly.
"XIIIIAAAAAOOOO BAAAAAAAIIII.....!!!"
Xiao Hei was shouting full of anger in the middle of the night!
While Tang Li Xue was already fell asleep in the empty room near there.
¡..
¡
.
The next day, Xiao Hei grandfather''s birthday went on smoothly without any major problem happened.
As for Tang Li Xue, she disappeared from Xiao Hei''s sight for an entire day and only came back to Xiao Hei''s room tomorrow after the birthday party to ask for Xiao Hei''s promise about her roasted meats.
Xiao Hei''s face twitched as he saw the unrepented fox in front of him moving her paw asking for her food, he really wanted to spank her ass so badly.
In the end, Xiao Hei could only sigh in resignment. Well, it was also his fault for neglected her on the first day after they arrived at his sect.
And so there was a new rumor began to spread amongst the guards and disciples even the elders that their little patriarch has a new hobby, that is roasted meat three times every day in his own courtyard for his new beloved pet, a silver fox!
A few days of uneventful days have passed without knowing, nothing big seems happened other than a few small skirmishes between factions but all of that was not Tang Li Xue''s business.
But there was some big problem that annoyed Tang Li Xue¡
''The roasted meat that Xiao Hei''s make now are super delicious, far more delicious than the roasted meat that he made in the cave before¡ but the EXP that I get now is also too little¡ almost negligible!''
Then Tang Li Xue realized that the problem was the meat itself¡ The roasted meat that Xiao Hei made in the cave was probably from a demonic beast at least [Umon] grade! The meat was a bit too chewy and hard to swallow but gave a lot of EXP.
The roasted meat that Xiao Hei''s made in this sect was from proper pork or beef. It was so delicious that Tang Li Xue almost swallowed her own tongue. The meat was crispy outside while tender inside but unfortunately the beast probably only [Poor] grade so the EXP she gets from eating it was so little!
At this rate, it would take her a few months or even years just to increase one of her level!
''I must think something fast! My ambition is not to be a house pet¡ but gain my human form and be a deity like my Uncle Sun!''
---------------------------------------------------------------------
On the Xiao Hei grandfather birthday''s party day...
"Chef! Where are the grilled chicken, roasted beef, and pork crispy roast?!" The disciple in charge as the birthday party''s waiter asked.
"It was on the table! Just take it, I am busy now and still must cook vegetable stir fry and prepare some mushroom dishes!" The chef was busily cooking, he did not turn his head and only answered casually.
"What are you talking about? There is nothing on the table other than empty tes!" The disciple frowned and said in annoyance.
"Mate, you must be kidding with me¡ It''s clear that I already cook it and put it on the table! And only you''re here other than me! It''s better if you cough it out now! Don''t be such a jerk!" The chef put his cook on hold and turned his body, he even started to roll his sleeve, ready to bash the disciple''s head.
"Oh¡ You think I am the one hiding it?! Or do you actually do this deliberately to teach me a lesson?! F*ck this shit, do you think I am so easy to bully! Come on!" The disciple charged toward the chef and the fierce fight began.
No one realized that there was a small invisible silver fox sat on the table where all the empty tes were¡
''Aiya¡ such a stupid people¡ If you can''t find the dishes just make another one! This queen is still starving you know! Such a pair of jerks! Sigh¡ It looks like I will need to wait for a while for my next meal!''
Chapter 19 - 19: The Way To Level Up Faster!
Chapter 19 - 19: The Way To Level Up Faster!
Tang Li Xue opened her Immortal World''s Newbie Guide and started to read it to find any other method she could use to level up.
She find out that different from her that consumed meat to level up, all the cultivators used spirit stones and pills to increase their cultivation faster.
Whether using the pure energy stored in spirit stones or refining the medicine efficacy from the pills, the cultivators could utilize it to be stronger faster like tempering their body strength, strengthened their soul, purify their Qi, etc.
The reason why Xiao Hei''s uncle, Mo Chonglin and Xiao Hei conflict was actually closely knitted tightly with this reason and actually this kind of conflict was not only happened in Asura Demon Sect but all over the Immortal world.
To be stronger cultivator need three things¡
Talent!
Cultivation and martial art manuals!
Resources!
With only relying on the talent without any resources, the most amazing genius would need 10 years to reach the peak of body tempering stage.
However, the dumbest talentless idiot if given enough resources only need 5 years to reach the peak of body tempering stage.
But to learn high ranked cultivation art or strong martial arts, you will need talent above all!
So all of this will make aplete vicious cycle: to learn high ranked cultivation art or strong martial arts you need talent but to increase your cultivation faster you need resources, and to get enough resources you must became stronger, therefore, you need strong martial arts topete for it!
Talent can only be obtained at birthbined with perseverance, and hard work, it all depends on each individual.
Anyone can get secret cultivation art and martial art manual when they join any sects as long as they were faithful to the sect, the elder or patriarch would bestow them with a copy quite easily since they could copy any cultivation art and martial art manual as many as they want.
What about resources?
Once someone consumes pills or heavenly herbs to increase their cultivation it will gone for good! Only one person can use it!
Moreover, the higher their cultivation, the harder it will be to find the resources that suit their cultivation. For example, body tempering pills only suited for body tempering stage cultivator when someone with Qi Condensation stage eat it will not bring any effect to them.
For someone with cultivation as high as Xiao Hei''s uncle, Mo Chonglin, the resources he needs was too rare and hard to find so it was reasonable if he wanted to be the patriarch in order to im all of it for himself.
And this kind of case did not only happen in Asura Demon Sect, it happened in all 4 evil sects and 5 virtuous sects!
This was also the reason why even though 4 evil sects and 5 virtuous sects hated each other so much but they never really going on all-out war. They were too busy taking care of their own internal conflict!
Imagine if 2 factions at odds like Asura Demon Sect already so chaotic, the other sect should have more factions like 3 factions, 4 factions, or maybe even more, making the internal struggle far more bloody and chaotic.
Tang Li Xue closed her Immortal World''s Newbie Guide while rubbed her own furry forehead with her tiny paw.
''What a messy chaotic world?! The way to the top really full of blood and corpses! Meh¡ Bute to think about it, I also need resources too!''
There were two ways that Tang Li Xue could think at this moment.
The first one was using her ''Quest'' system to level up but she must research it carefully first before determine how to use it more efficiently.
That left her with her second methods¡ consume cultivation pills!
She really wanted to try it¡ are cultivation pills really as potent as the guide said? Would it work for a beast like her too? Then she started her research on her target for the next few days and she managed to find out.
White-robed disciples were only outer disciples, their cultivation only at Body Tempering Stage! Easy target! Of course, she must pick a weaker one to bully¡ err to teach them a lesson!
Blue-robed disciples were inner disciples, their cultivation at Qi Condensation Stage! Tough nut to crack! Their strength was on par with weakest demonic beasts!
Red-robed disciples were core disciples, their cultivation at Acupuncture Opening Stage! Definitely not someone she could mess with!
ck-robed men were not disciples but elders, their cultivation at Foundation Establishment Stage¡ Well, they all knew that I am Xiao Hei''s pet so they will not dare to hurt me¡ probably. By the way, Xiao Hei was also at the Foundation Establishment stage right now.
Xiao Hei''s uncle, Mo Chonglin was at Core Formation Stage¡ that was why Xiao Hei did not have any guts and ability to challenge him for now.
But Xiao Hei''s grandfather, Mo Chanming was at the Nascent Soul Stage and the strongest cultivator in this sect! Unfortunately, his lifetime was almost over.
¡..
¡
.
While all the elders busying themselves with their schemes and conflicts, the lower disciples also have their own share of conflict. Extortion, robbing, ckmail, even r*pe was amon urrence inside all the sects as long as no massacre happening the elders will only keep one of their eyes closed.
"Yoo¡ There is an intimate loving couple here! Gyahaha¡" A group of white-robed burly disciples found a couple that kissing each other behind the tree at night and started to surround them.
"Kyaaa~~ Se¡ Senior martial brother¡ Please¡ Let us go¡" The timid white-robed girl started to tremble in fear.
"Xiao Yan, don''t¡ don''t be afraid! Senior martial brother, please let us leave! I¡ I will give you all of my Body Tempering Pills so please¡" The white-robed girl boyfriend tried to defend her and gave away a bottle of Body Tempering Pills.
The leader of white-robed burly disciples took the bottle then said something full of contempt: "Tsk! Only one bottle! Do you think we are a beggar or something¡HAH! You must have more right?! Bring it all out!"
"Se¡ Senior martial brother, there really is no more! We are only new disciples so¡ we only get a few months of¡" Before the boyfriend could finish his words, the burly leader punched his face hard and they started to stomp him hard on the ground.
"Hehehe¡ Now there is no one disturbing us! Let''s us try how our Little Junior Sister ''s taste on the bed! Hahahaha¡" The leader and all of his goons started at the white-robed girl that still stunned silly with a gaze full of l.u.s.t.
But before they could went near the girl¡ there was silver shadow shed in front of their eyes!
[Scratch]!
[Stealth]!
"GYAAAAAAA!!! MY EYES! Who is it? What the f.u.c.k is that? Quickly catch it for me!" The burly leader covered his face in pain, there were four lines of bloody wound that started from his upper right forehead to his left lower chin.
The wound was not too deep, clearly, the one that caused that woundcked in terms of strength. But its speed was unbelievably fast, the burly leader was not even having any time to defend or close his eyes before the attack came.
The rest of the people raised their guard and started to look around but they did not find anything!
[Scratch]!
[Stealth]!
"AAARGHHHH!" One more of the white-robed goons'' faces fall prey to the w of justice.
"Dammit! What¡ what the hell is happening? Who is there?! Come out, you coward! AAAAAAAAHHHH!" Again one more fell without anyone knowing what exactly happened and who the one that do it was!
"I¡ I don''t have anything to do with this anymore! I¡ I¡ RUUUNN! UGYAAAAAAAA!" This one turned his body and started to run away frantically but how could he outrun the silver fox that equipped with [Innate: Agility] divine ability, in the end, he also follow his friend and fell!
The only one left started to kowtow and bbering asking for forgiveness: "I¡ I am forced to do this by big brother! Senior¡ Please forgive me! I¡ UAAARRRGGHHH!" But how could Tang Li Xue forgive this human trash sc.u.m, she also used her [Scratch] to ruin his face and eyes.
The white-robed girl looked at all the men that still rolled on the ground in pain and did not know what to do. She started to look around in fear¡
''Goodbye little girl, you do not need to thank me! I am just a legend passing by! Adios!''
Tang Li Xue brought a bottle of Body Tempering Pills on her mouth and activated her [Sprint] since she cannot use her [Stealth] while holding something.
She turned into a white shadow and shed out from the scene in a second.
Aftering back into Xiao Hei''s courtyard, Tang Li Xue ran to the back of the big tree and impatiently uncorked the bottle of Body Tempering Pills.
The concentrated smell of medicine started to waft into her nostril.
''Urgh¡ I really hate eating medicine! In my previous life, I already eat all kind of medicines every day for as long as I can remember! To think in this life I will eat medicine with my own free will even though I am fully healthy! Sigh¡ Here goes nothing!"
Chapter 20 - 20: Martial Soul!
Chapter 20 - 20: Martial Soul!
Tang Li Xue popped one of the Body Tempering Pills into her mouth. The taste was not as bad as she thought it to be; on the contrary, it was a bit... delicious? The taste was like herbal-mint vored candy...
Tang Li Xue felt a great amount of EXP surging through her body, equal with when she ate the demonic beast roasted meat before.
[EXP gained!] [Strength+1]
''Ooooh?! Good stuff! Again then¡''
[EXP gained!] [Strength+1]
[EXP gained!] [Strength+1]
¡
Ding!
[Congrattion! You achieved level 4, +15 stat point, +3 Skill Point]
There were eight Body Tempering Pills in the bottle and Tang Li Xue finished it all in only a minute.
''Sigh¡ It''s over just like that? More! I want more! But my offense is quite weak just now if I did not target their eyes, I can only make a few shallow scratches on their face¡''
Tang Li Xue decided to use 12 free points to increase her strength status to 80 and also upgrade her [Scratch] skill.
[Scratch skill already reached Mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Sharp ws with cost 3 Skill Points?]
''YES!''
[Scratch ability upgraded to Sharp ws ability!]
As usual, her [Scratch (Mastered)] skill disappeared from her current status and changed into [Sharp ws (Lv1)].
Now her offensive strength has gone up by one notch, it should be enough to leave some deep painful scars on those smug outer disciples'' faces!
But now she had another problem¡
On her previous encounter, Tang Li Xue already tried to use her wish to create a quest but she failed in the end.
Tang Li Xue already guessed that system quest was not that easy to trigger now but she already got some gist about it.
First, she cannot trigger it if something that what she wanted to do was judged by the system as too easy to aplish. It made sense though if she could create a quest like ''I want to sleep at noon'', ''I want to eat roast meat this morning'', ''I want to sleep on my bed tonight'', and get +1 level every time shepleted it¡ she would definitely be a deity in less than a week!
Second, she could only take one quest at a time and she must finish it first before taking another one. Do not look down on this condition because this was another deadly trap set up by the system!
Imagine if she set up a quest like ''I want to defeat Xiao Hei''s fatty uncle!'' then she must definitely finish it first before taking another one! How long do you think for the current Tang Li Xue need to level up, evolve, and finally defeat a veteran Core Formation cultivator like Xiao Hei''s uncle?
Ten years? Twenty years? Maybe more! And she cannot take another quest before shepleted it!
Whereas the quest system was actually the fastest way for her to level up! So taking a quest beyond her current ability to finish it was actually a suicide so she must consider it really carefully!
''Meh¡ I will think about itter! Let''s forget all of it and hunt for more pills today!''
¡..
¡
.
"You dare to ask for our Body Tempering Pills share! Qing Wu! Who do you think you are?" Slender outer disciple shouted in anger.
There were also several of his friends that stood behind the slender looking guy ready to pounce to the guy named Qing Wu.
''Another case of bullying? But¡ that short guy named Qing Wu is really strange! I could feel some sinister aura from him! Let''s look at the situation first!''
Tang Li Xuezily sat on the nearby pir while still in her [Stealth] mode.
"I have no time to squabble with you all! Give it to me now or die and I will take it by myself! I will give you three seconds to think!" Qing Wu sneered mockingly at them; his voice was so hoarse that making it hard to hear what he said clearly.
"F*ck! This little bast*rd really don''t want to live anymore! Everyone let''s teach our dear little martial brother a lesson on how to respect his senior!" The slender outer disciple and all of his friends'' faces turned really ugly because of anger.
"Three! Time is up! DIE!" Qing Wu murmured lightly then his body vanished like a ghost under all peoples eyes.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
Tang Li Xue agape in shock: ''Damn that Qing Wu is really vicious¡ he did not even count one and two but instantly jump to three¡ he also basically one-hit K.O all of them at this rate! Strong!''
"Qing¡ Qing Wu¡ you¡ you¡ are¡ pe¡peak of¡ Body Tempering¡ Stage!" the slender outer disciple stuttered as Qing Wu held his neck like a chicken waiting to be ughtered.
"Correct! That''s why I need many Body Tempering Pills to breakthrough to Qi Condensation Stage sooner! As your reward, I will grant you a quick death!" Qing Wu said with a harsh tone while tightened his hand that was on the slender guy''s neck.
''Uh... Oh¡ This is bad, isn''t it? He really nned to kill them all! Holysh*t! Just how cruel is this guy? Isn''t he already win?! Just take all of their pills as his trophy¡ why needs to kill them all! Oh no, I need to help them all! Fast!''
Ding!
[Quest: (First Battle) Defeat a Peak Body Tempering Cultivator and save the outer disciples!]
[Reward: Level+2, Stat Point+30(+8), Skill Point+6(+2), 50 Deity Coins(+12)]
''Ooooh! It works! Okay¡ Let''s kick this shorty''s *ss!''
Tang Li Xue jumped out from behind the pir and executed her usual set of moves!
[Sharp ws]!
[Stealth]!
However, this time her opponent was not the small fry like before!
Qing Wu felt a dangerous breeze flew toward him and he instinctively tilted his face backward then throwing away the slender outer disciple toward Tang Li Xue.
BAAANG!
He managed to dodge Tang Li Xue''s attack when he tilted his face backward and he also threw the slender outer disciple made him crashed with Tang Li Xue canceled her [Stealth] only in a single swift movement.
''Damn! He is really hard to deal with! How the hell he could even move like that as if he can really see me?!''
"Annoying little beast! How dare you attack me?! I will send you with all of them to hell now!" Qing Wu yelled out in anger then charged toward Tang Li Xue and began attacking her in frenzy.
Qing Wu''s speed was truly fast almost on par with Tang Li Xue. Unfortunately, he was only ''almost'' on par but still not a match for Tang Li Xue with her divine ability [Innate: Agility] along with her [Sprint].
Moreover, Tang Li Xue''s body size was only as big as a cat made her really hard to hit let alone catching her.
[Sharp ws]!
PPPSSSSHHH!
Tang Li Xue jumped toward Qing Wu aimed at his vulnerable eyes but Qing Wu managed to predict it first and raised his right hand to cover his face. So Tang Li Xue''s [Sharp ws] only injured Qing Wu''s right arm.
Qing Wu used this rare opportunity to caught Tang Li Xue''s tail with his free left hand but Tang Li Xue with her extraordinary reflexes twirled her super flexible body around and [Bite] Qing Wu''s left wrist.
PPPSSSSSHHHHH!
"ARRRRGGGGGH!" Qing Wu screamed in pain and Tang Li Xue would not let this rare chance go away just like that!
Tang Li Xue jumped from Qing Wu''s left arm toward his face and use her [Sharp ws] toward his eyes!
[Sharp ws]!
PPPUUUUUUUUUFFFF!!!
Tang Li Xue jumped again before Qing Wu''s dropped to the ground andnded gracefully on the floor. Heck, she could even put a cool victory pose now!
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" Qing Wu that fell off to the ground started to roll around in pain while holding his face.
This time Tang Li Xue''s [Sharp ws] seeded in injuring Qing Wu''s eyes! There were four deep horizontal bloody wounds from his right temple to his left temple!
"DAMN BEAST! YOU ARE DEAD! YOU ARE REALLY DEAD NOW!" Qing Wu slowly crawled up while keep holding his face and shoutingbined with his messy appearances; he was truly like an insane person right now.
Tang Li Xue also kept her vignce up since she still did not receive any ''Quest Completed'' notification then it means that this battle was still far from over yet.
''Like facing a BOSS in RPG¡ Is it mean that he has second form like in the game or something?!''
Tang Li Xue kept her distance and she also did not let Qing Wu out from her sight.
"COME OUT, MY MARTIAL SOUL! ICE WOLF!" Qing Wu shouted with all of his strength and his feeble aurapletely changed as the surrounding temperature dropped several degrees In an instant.
AOOOOOOOOOOWWUUUU!!!
''Dammit! This looks really bad! And what the hell is that?!''
Chapter 21 - 21: Continuous Level Up!
Chapter 21 - 21: Continuous Level Up!
A vague silhouette of a majestic blue wolf started to appear in front of Qing Wu along with its frightening howl, its transparent body also began to solidify.
Though Tang Li Xue did not know what exactly that was but her beastly instinct as fox screaming in danger.
However, since she already took the quest to defeat Qing Wu then she must face it to the end.
Tang Li Xue put all 67 of her free stat points into her agility stats increased it from 93 to 160bined with her [Innate: Agility] that tripled her agility stats, her current agility equal with 480 points of agility.
''Come on! Bring it on!''
"ICE WOLF! GO! ICE BOLT!" The current Qing Wu cannot see anything with his eyes but it did not mean that his martial soul, Ice wolf cannot see either.
At first Tang Li Xue still looked down on the Qing Wu''s blue colored wolf despite its dangerous aura since its size only as big as a Labrador and it was impossible for its burly body to move as fast as her!
Her quest was also to only defeat Qing Wu, not to defeat ''Qingwu and his martial soul''! So Tang Li Xue thinks she only needs to ignore the blue wolf and attack Qing Wu directly until he fell unconscious.
However now, Tang Li Xue realized how na?ve she was as soon as the battle started again!
[Ice Bolt]!
The ice wolf opened its mouth and shot three sharp icicles in session toward Tang Li Xue!
''Holy sh*t! DODGE! RUN!''
Tang LI Xue activated her [Sprint] in an instant ice wolf opened its mouth and dashed to the right side as fast as she can.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
Three sharp icicles pierced deep into the ground where Tang Li Xue stood before!
"AGAIN! SHOOT! SHOOT! SHOOT! Until that f*cking fox filled with holes!" Qing Wu shouted crazily, his appearance right now really looks like an insane beggar.
The ice wolf started to shoot the [Ice Bolt] nonstop like a machine gun, each time it shot there would be three icicles flew toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue ran around in zigzag swiftly sometimes to the right, sometimes to the left. Her speed was truly too fast to be seen made her resemble a white lightning in the middle of a sunny day!
''Damn! This is the first time I am really d that my body size is so small like a cat! If my body as big as a horse, some of those ice bullets would have hit me already!''
Unfortunately, although she was very agile with her tiny sized body made all of those flying ice bullets very hard to hit her but she also cannote closer to Qing Wu!
''Dammit! You want to y with bullets? Okay! WE WILL PLAY WITH BULLET THEN!''
[Mirror of the Moon] Active!
Copy start!
Name: [Ice Bolt] Type: Active Skill
Copypleted!
''You want to y with bullet, huh?! Eat this you b*stard!''
[ICE BOLT] Active!
Tang Li Xue opened her mouth and shot one sharp icicle to the ice wolf!
Yes¡ unlike the ice wolf that could shot three icicles at once, Tang Li Xue could only shot one at a time! Her icicle was also smaller than the ice wolf about only half of the size.
However, Tang Li Xue''s sharp icicle moved several times faster than the ice wolf''s icicle so Tang Li Xue''s sharp icicle packed with more strength due to its speed!
Tang Li Xue''s ice bolt¡ was impossible to dodge!
BOOOOOOOM!!!
The sturdy ice wolf shattered like an ice statue when Tang Li Xue''s ice bullet hit it right at its neck!
"AAAAAHHHHHH!" Qing Wu screamed in pain and dropped down to the floor while holding onto his head when his martial soul shattered by Tang Li Xue''s ice bolt.
After his body twitched several times, he fellpletely unconscious.
Ding!
[Quest Completed]!
[Gained: Level+2, Stat Point+30(+8), Skill Point+6(+2), 50 Deity Coins(+12)]
[Evaluation: Excellent] [Added additional reward: Bronze Lottery Ticket]
Ding!
[Congrattion! You achieved level 6, +30 stat points, +6 Skill Points]
''Ooooh? What is this evaluation? There is an additional reward too?! So if Ipleted the quest quicker and more efficient, I could get additional reward?!''
Tang Li Xue walked toward the unconscious Qing Wu absentmindedly while in deep thought.
''But unfortunately, I still cannot evolve yet¡ It looks like my guess is right! The second evolution need my level to reach at least 11 or maybe even higher! Forget it then! At least, I only need 5 more level anyway!''
Tang Li Xue was rummaging all over Qing Wu''s body and clothes. She managed to find six bottles full of body tempering pills on Qing Wu.
When Tang Li Xue turned her body around wanted to leave, she stopped suddenly¡
''Wait¡ It would be such a waste to let this chance go away! And there is no guarantee that devil shorty will not take the body tempering pills on them if he regains his consciousnesster, right?''
In the end, Tang Li Xue looted all the bottles of body tempering pills from all the unconscious people there and happily pocketing another ten bottles of body tempering pills!
She put all the bottles into a white-robe that she took from one of the unconscious people and use it like a sack to bring all sixteen bottles away with her mouth.
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue went back into Xiao Hei''s room but since still noon right now, Xiao Hei had not returned yet so she was alone in the room.
''Nyahahaha! This Queen is rich now! 216 body tempering pills in total! Wait a minute¡ Isn''t that mean if I finish them all I will gain another 216 points of strength? Nyahahaha! EAT¡ EAT¡ EAT IT ALL~~''
[EXP gained!] [Strength+1]
[EXP gained!] [Strength+1]
[EXP gained!] [Strength+1]
¡..
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s hope shattered when her strength stopped growing when it reached 120 but still 40 more strength status was actually an enormous boost!
''Sigh¡ so this pills stopped enhanced my strength now huh?! But really¡ I am getting sick eating it and why the hell I still have not leveled up yet!''
But it actually made sense since the EXP needed to increase from level 6 to level 7 probably more than a dozen of times EXP needed to increase level 3 to level 4.
[Congrattion! You achieved level 7, +15 stat points, +3 Skill Points]
Tang Li Xue managed to level up only once when she finished all of the body tempering pills. Her stomach bloated up like a toad as she lying on her backzily on the top of the bed.
''Urghhh¡ my stomach¡ I want to puke¡ No! If I puke it out now all of my effort will be wasted! Ummm¡ If I puke it out, will my level go back down again to level 6 as a result? Urggghhh¡ Meh¡ Not going to try it anyway!''
Only at this moment that Tang Li Xue really felt that using quest to level up was the most correct way. She could level up while gaining more stat points and skill points; if she was doing it well, she would even get additional reward for it!
''Sigh¡ Well, I already tired of fighting for now. How about exploring this sect''s farm to rx and sight-seeing for once in a while?''
Ding!
[Quest: (Explorer) Explore Asura Demon Sect''s farm! Beware, danger at every corner!]
[Difficulty: Hard]
[Requirement: [Hide], [Odorless], and [Trail Cover] skills]
[Reward: Level +3(+1), Stat Point+45(+11), Skill Point+9(+2), 150(+38) Deity Coins]
''BLOODY HELL! IT''S HARD DIFFICULTY! Can someone tell me how the hell could exploring the farm be so dangerous?''
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Xiao Hei''s room at night¡
Xiao Hei pushed Xiao Bai onto the bed forcefully.
"Xiao Bai, now you cannot run away anymore!" Xiao Hei sneered at Tang Li Xue.
''Wait¡ what¡ what are you going to do to me? You¡ you¡ pervert Xiao Hei!''
Xiao Hei wasughing and started to undress his clothes one by one started from his robe then his pants until he waspletely n.a.k.e.d.
''Wow look at that six-packs¡ and he is not a small sausage at all! Sssshhhh¡ that must be a long loaf bread''s size!''
''Xiao Hei¡ I¡ I am actually not ready for this¡ but¡ but if it''s you then I am ok with this¡ Also, this is my first time so¡ please be gentle to me¡''
Xiao Hei got into the bed and embraced Tang Li Xue full of gentleness and¡
SSSPLAAAAAAASSSHH!
Threw her into a barrel bathtub full of hot water on the center of the room!
''Cough¡ Cough¡ Cough¡ You jerk! Didn''t I say it ''please be gentle to me'' hah! Why are you so rough?!''
Xiao Hei also jumped into the barrel bathtub and took out a soft brush then started to scrub Tang Li Xue''s furry body!
SCRUB¡ SCRUB¡ SCRUB!
''Ouch¡ Ouch¡ Ouch¡ I said be gentler you jerk! It really is hurt!''
"Xiao Bai, look you are so dirty now! Where are you ying today, huh?! There is even some dry blood on your fur! You better be careful! Listen up Xiao Bai if you really caught some lice then This Seat will not sleep with you anymore from now on!" Xiao Hei said whileughing mischievously and scrubs harder.
''What the hell! When This Queen asked you to sleep with her?! You are the one that always wanted to sleep while hugging This Queen tightly each night! Ow¡ Ow¡ Ow?? Stop it! Be gentler, you *sshole!''
Chapter 22 - 22: New Skills!
Chapter 22 - 22: New Skills!
Headache!
Tang Li Xue really wanted to puke out several mouthfuls of blood out now!
She recalled her experience when she saved Xiao Hei in the Moonlight Forest before.
The quest at that time also ''Hard'' difficulty! It was a really close call back then, she was almost failed even with [Lucky Sticker] help!
Without [Lucky Sticker] she definitely must search the antidote deeper into the Moonlight Forest that full of demonic beasts! The risk was unimaginable high and with one little slip, Tang Li Xue''s own life will be lost in vain!
She panicked for a bit but when she remembers that she still had [Greater Lucky Sticker] in her inventory, she quickly calmed down. It was her absolute lifesaving talisman and her only cheating item toplete the quest unscathed like when she saved Xiao Hei before!
But Tang Li Xue remembers that [Lucky Sticker] has some kind of buff duration and it was not too long only 10 minutes. So she immediately decided that she would not use it unless the situation was very urgent and she had no other choice anymore!
She also decided to spend a few days to familiarize herself with her new must-have skill for the quest before going to explore the farmter.
Tang Li Xue used 2 of her skill points to bought [Odorless] skill and [Trail Cover] skill!
[You have gained Odorless ability!]
[You have gained Trail Cover ability!]
''Since I already have 3 of the skills that I n tober¡ let''s just buy 2 other skills and see if it really could bebined into an OP divine ability!''
Once again Tang Li Xue spent another 2 of her skill points this time to bought [Silencer] skill and [Erasing Presence] skill without any hesitation!
[You have gained Silencer ability!]
[You have gained Erasing Presence ability!]
[Stealth(Lv1), Odorless (Lv1), Trail Cover (Lv1), Silencer(Lv1), Erasing Presence(Lv1) can bebined into Divine Ability [Ethereal Form] with cost 42 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''YES! YEEESSSS! YEEEEEEESSSSS! It really can bebined into one super OP divine ability! But what the hell! 42 Skill Points?! Holysh*t! Even [Innate: Agility] only cost 10 Skill Points! Well, make sense since this divine ability sounds super OP! BUT NOT ENOUGH SKILL POINTS! Let''s try answering ''yes''¡ YES!''
[Sorry, your current Skill Points is not enough yet!]
[You can try leveling up all the required skills to reduce the cost forbination!]
[Note 1: Each skill''s level up will reduce Skill Point cost by 1. If you upgrade the skill after it reached Mastered, the cost will be reduced even further ording to the upgrade cost!]
[Note 2: The minimum cost for thebination is 0. If your skill level is too high or you upgrade it too many times, the rest skill points will not get any refund!]
''?????!!!!!''
''Hmmm¡ Wait a minute¡ so thebination cost should be 50 skill points? But since I leveled up the [Hide] skill to Mastered it reduced by 5 Skill Points then I upgrade it to [Stealth] spending 3 Skill Points so now thebination cost also reduced by 3 skill points? 50 ¨C 8 = 42 Skill Points as thebination cost?!''
Tang Li Xue''s eyes turned brighter as the gear in her head started to turn at full speed until she jumped in happiness when she realized something.
''Muahahaha! Then if I level all 4 other required skills to Mastered I will get 20 Skill Points cost reduced! 42 ¨C 20 = 22! Now it seems more reachable! I only need 22 Skill Points tobine them! Nyahahaha~~ I am so smart! Now I already have 13 Skill Points, I only need 9 more Skill Points!''
Tang Li Xue smiled happily and decided to check her current status before going to sleep!

After grinning satisfied at her current strength, Tang Li Xue snuggled onto Xiao Hei''s body that already sleeping beside her and sleepfortably on her favorite warm ''pillow''.
¡..
¡
.
The following morning next day, Xiao Hei woke Tang Li Xue up for eating after preparing her favorite roasted meat by himself and he quickly left after taking his own breakfast with Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue also started to familiarize herself with all of her new skills after Xiao Hei left.
After experimented with it a few times, Tang Li Xue quickly realized that no skills in the system that was useless! All of them were extremely useful and truly miraculous!
For example this [Odorless] skill, it could iste all kind of smell from Tang Li Xue''s body making herpletely untrackable by any sense of smell no matter how sharp it was! Tracking her using dog, wolf, or bear''s sense of smell would be impossible from now on once she activated it!
For her [Trail Cover] skill, it was even more bizarre! Tang Li Xue experimented by walking on the sand, normally she would leave her footprints everywhere but with [Trail Cover] nothing came out!
Even Tang Li Xue herself confused on how this skill works and she believe with this skill, not even a modern fingerprint detector would be able to track her.
As for this [Silencer] skill, this was the most useful skill amongst all in Tang Li Xue''s opinion. She experiment this skill using her [Sharp ws] to nearby expensive-looking vase and the result? No grating soundsing out! Not even a tiny bit of sounds!
Tang Li Xue threw the vase toward the pir.
PRAAAANG!
''Hmmm¡ So it creates a sound now? It looks like only the things still in contact with my body that will not make any sounds¡ let''s try it again!''
Tang Li Xue held another expensive-looking vase with her two tiny cute paws and started to smash it toward the ground. It broke into many tiny pieces but miraculously no soundsing out this time!
Lastly for this [Erasing Presence]¡ Tang Li Xue did not know what this skill was for yet! But since all other skills were so useful then it was impossible for this skill to be useless.
And for once this time Tang Li Xue was actually correct! The Foundation Establishment Cultivator above or some high-ranked demonic beasts would develop their own ''divine sense'' and use it like their own eyes! They could scan using their divine sense and find any hidden traps or hidden enemies inside their range of divine sense even if it was something invisible!
The true function of this [Erasing Presence] was to make the user undetectable with any kind of ''divine sense'' no matter how sensitive or sharp it was!
''Well, I already familiarize myself with all the new skills (except Erasing Presence) so I only need to wait until dark! Hopefully, any people and beast in the farm would be sleeping at night¡ Oh, I almost forgot to upgrade my [Bite] skill! I will need it to bite and eat some naughty demonic beastter haha~~''
[Bite skill already reached Mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Rip with cost 3 Skill Points?]
''YES!''
[Bite ability upgraded to Rip ability!]
While waiting until nightfall, Tang Li Xue decided to read her Immortal World''s Newbie Guidezily about Martial Soul. Even though she still has a long way to regain her human form and have her own dantian but she really wants to know some information about it.
Martial Soul for humans was the same as divine ability for beasts¡
''What the hell?! I thought only The Deity Candidate as awesome as me only have divine abilities! So all the beasts have it too?!''
Tang Li Xue was wrong about this¡ For savage beast, the probability for awakening their own unique divine ability was 0%! So amongst all savage beasts, only Tang Li Xue has her own unique divine ability!
While the probability for all the demonic beasts to awakening their own unique divine ability was 30% so only 30% of demonic beasts could use divine ability.
As for the spirit beasts, the probability was 100%! Yes, all the spirit beasts have their own OP unique divine ability for sure.
Of course, all of this did not apply for the evolution using the system. In other words, each time Tang Li Xue evolves, she will definitely 100% gain one divine ability!
With the condition that the species of fox that she chose as her own path of evolution have their own unique divine ability to awaken if not¡ then sorry, she still would not get any!
In other words, if she chose some cheap evolution path without any requirement for evolution, she would not get any divine ability!
''Sh*t! I almost miss my current divine ability! This system is really full of deadly trap! I need to be really careful in the future!''
Come back to martial soul''s topic, each person has their own unique martial soul and martial soul would usually take a beast form while some rarer one would take a nt form.
Martial soul also divided by the rank from one to ten. Rank one as the lowest, while rank ten as the highest.
Martial soul rank itself rted to many things, the higher the rank of the martial soul was the stronger the strength of their martial soul would be, the faster their cultivation will be, the faster their martial artsprehension would be too, and many other more!
In Immortal World, the one that has a low-rank martial soul was always called a waste or a trash while the one that has a high-rank martial soul would be hailed as a genius.
But the words after that make even Tang Li Xue dumbfounded.
However, it was all no more than Immortal World''s people narrow-mindedness and nothing more just like a frog at the bottom of the well!
On the contrary to them, in Divine World the lower the grade of martial soul the more favored they will be! The one that possessed the lowest grade martial soul will definitely be recruited as a personal disciple of some high ranked god!
''Damn! Now, this really makes me really curious and want to know why?!''
Chapter 23 - 23: Spooky Farm!
Chapter 23 - 23: Spooky Farm!
Out of curiosity, Tang Li Xue continues to read it after having her dinner.
She finds out that reason was actually really simple.
Immortal World''s people think that martial soul''s rank will be like that for the rest of their life but in Divine World it was different, the people in Divine World could use some heavenly herbs or divine pills to evolve martial soul to the higher grade.
Yes¡ Grade! Unlike in Immortal World, the people of Divine World apparently applying beast''s grade to the martial soul too like the lowest would be [Poor] then [Common] and so on!
The most important thing was when the martial soul evolves to the higher grade, they still retain their unique skills and passive skills from before!
Imagine if a cial Sparrow had [Ice/Water Immunity] as it passive ability and it will evolve to true Phoenix in the end! The phoenix''s element was fire so normally its weakness would be Ice/water but with [Ice/Water Immunity] that logic will no longer apply!
Moreover, with its inherited unique skills from when it was still cial Sparrow back then, the Phoenix could also use ice/water attack skills made its attack pattern more rich and unpredictable!
''This is crazy! Then if the martial soul evolves several times into several different types and inherited all of their immunity¡ too frightening to think of! It will be basically immune to all elements?!''
Even Tang Li Xue hope that she would get the lowest grade [Poor] martial soulter if it was really like this!
''MARTIAL SOUL¡ Argh¡ Impatient! I really want to get it now! But no matter how invincible the martial soul is, the user would still be its weak point in the end¡ Sigh¡''
Tang Li Xue remembered Xiao Hei''s martial soul at that time when he battled above Moonlight Forest.
''That magnificent Nine-Petal Blood Lotus looks so strong and majestic! Its martial soul''s rank is definitely very high! When Xiao Hei unleashed its skill he shouted ''Devour'' at that time. That must be the blood lotus unique skill! So cool!''
In the end, Xiao Hei almost defeated because his body critically injured so Tang Li Xue still thinks invincible martial soul weakness was actually its master itself but when she read even further she quickly realized that she was incredibly wrong!
Dumbfounded... Tang Li Xue read it even more carefully from the important parts!
The way to use martial soul was divided into three ording to its mastery.
The first way was to summon it out. This was the easiest way and how amateur use their martial soul. The disadvantage was once the martial soul destroyed, it will heavily damaged the master''s soul too so using it this way was actually like using a double-edged sword.
Tang Li Xue remember what happened with Qing Wu when she destroyed his martial soul yesterday and felt a bit guilty about it since the damaged soul would take far longer to recover than normal wound.
It would probably take several years for Qing Wu to recover from his soul''s wound and during that time he would not be able to breakthrough or use his martial soul!
The second way was to partially merge it with your soul andpress its power. In this case, the martial soul would take shape a weapon that you most proficient with! Only a true genius could use it this way.
For example, the master practiced sword martial arts countless times, then the martial soul would take sword form when its powerpressed. The advantage of this form is that it would be far harder almost impossible to destroy the martial soul (of course if the enemy cultivation far higher than him, it would still be destroyed easily) and the master can still freely use its unique skills.
Again Tang Li Xue remembered the blood-red sword Xiao Hei used before.
''Damn! That crimson red sword must be hispressed martial soul! Xiao Hei, so you are a genius?! Tsk! ENVY! HATE! Humph!''
The third way was the most difficult one. Even a genius would need several enlightenments and long practice to be able to use it!
It was to fully merge the martial soul with the master''s soul along with the master body! This process called ''Assimte'' not only the master would get all of its martial soul''s passive skills and unique skills, his/her strength would be strengthened many folds!
''Damn! This¡ Assimte Mode if the martial soul has all kinds of immunity then¡ THE MARTIAL SOUL''S MASTER WOULD BE REALLY INVINCIBLE?!''
Tang Li Xue was wagging her furry tail in excitement when she read this but she quickly calmed down since she still has a long way to go. She did not even have her own martial soul for now!
''Imagine if This Queen¡ NO! This Deity has the invincible martial soulbined along with the godly divine abilities! This Deity will definitely be the strongest deity ever exists!''
''Like the guide said the humans have their martial souls but the beasts have their divine abilities!''
''But This Strongest Fox Deity would have both of them! And both would be the strongest one!''
Tang Li Xue wanted to read about the beast''s divine abilities but she realized that the time hase for her to go since the sky already dark long ago.
She closed her Immortal World''s Newbie Guide and threw it back into her system inventory before heading toward the Asura Demon Sect''s farm.
¡..
¡
.
With her current speed, Tang Li Xue managed to reach the farm''s gate with only in a few minutes.
The farm was actually very vast with manyrge separated buildings. There was arge pigpen, cowshed, and henhouse on the front side and Tang Li Xue finished explored them all in less than ten minutes with her [Stealth] skill activated.
But she did not know why but the deeper she enter this farm, the more dangerous she felt.
Especially, the big building in the deeper side of the farm with the dim light and how quiet it was! She felt something weird would actually jump up to her from the corner.
Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva and steeled her resolve.
''Come on Li Tang Xue¡ oh no, I mean Tang Li Xue¡ be brave! It is only a farm! What are you afraid of, you coward?! There should be only pigs, chickens, cows, and other meat ingredients here!''
She began with the horse stable since it was the closest to her.
This time she was being more careful and walk slower as she activated her [Stealth] before entering.
She walked step by step carefully, checking and turning her head right and left, again and again.
''See? There are only horses here, right? Haha¡ hahaha¡''
Bwoooosh! Bang!
Tang Li Xue''s body flew suddenly and hit the nearby wall hard.
-870!
HP: 3,630/4,500
''Holysh*t! What the hell has happened?!''
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to know who attacked her as she stared agape to the overbearing creature in front of her.
''Wha¡ THE HELL! Is that a griffin? That is a griffin, isn''t it?!''
When she panicked, her [Idenfify] skill activated automatically.
[Species: Wind Lion-Eagle]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 21]
[HP: 16,500/16,500]
The creature in front of her has a half-lion half-eagle body, its size was three to four times bigger than an ox, and it was also equipped with a wide pair of eagle wings.
RROOOOAAAAAAARR~~!!!
Another beast roared so loud that it made Tang Li Xue''s vision darkened and almost fainted on the spot.
-920
HP:2,710/4,500
Just from the sound Tang Li Xue immediately knew that it was from another demonic beast and she was really sure that she did not want to know what kind of beast is that!
''RUUUUUUN!''
But she immediately aware that before she would die at this rate before she reached the door!
Tang Li Xue instantly remembered the skill required for this quest¡ [Odorless] and [Trail Cover]!
She swiftly activated the two of those skills along with her [Stealth] while dashed to the corner of the stable!
Tang Li Xue already tested it before, even though [Stealth] cannot be activated at the same time as [Sprint] but it could actually be activated with [Odorless], [Trail Cover], [Silencer], and [Erasing Presence] without any problem!
However, activating five skills at the same time would drain her stamina far too fast and she could only maintain it for less than three minutes so she usually only activate [Stealth].
The Wind Lion-Eagle and its friend, the ck tiger was still attacking madly but they were only attacking blindly this time without any clear target.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, it looks like those two only mad because they lost her track when she used the three skills.
She checked the ck tiger with her [Identify] after calmed herself down.
[Species: ck Demon Tiger]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 22]
[HP: 17,400/17,400]
A vicious-looking ck tiger with a scorpion tail, a pair of ck raven wings, and its blood-colored eyes really make Tang Li Xue scared! It was also even bigger than Wind-Lion Eagle.
Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva when she explored this ''Horse Stable''. Apparently, these two were not the only demonic beasts in here.
There were several tens of demonic beasts here and all of them [Umon] grade! All of them actually one grade higher than her!
After exploring every inch and corner of the stable slowly and carefully step by step. Tang Li Xue took three hours to actually exploring the stable, of course, she used many of her time to rest and recharge her stamina since she needed to activate 3 of her skills at once when exploring.
She sighed again in relief after she managed to step outside.
''Dammit! What the hell is this ce?! How the hell there are so many¡''
Tang Li Xue stunned silly once again when she saw the signboard in front of the stable.
MOUNT''S STABLE
All the mounts are docile as long as you bring food for them!
''Do you think I am a groom or stable boy?! Where can I find foods for those big guys?!''
Tang Li Xue spotted three other big solid buildings and suddenly she felt like this quest was actually too hard for her to handle.
She only entered this stable that all of the mounts marked as docile but she already loses half of her health already while the other three judging from its gloomy aura and invisible pressure must have higher difficulty than this one!
''Oh my god¡ I really make a mistake this time! But I do not have any other choice! If I do not finish this quest, I will not be able to take any quest from now on!''
''Sigh¡ the good news is after I finish this quest, I will be able to evolve once again! Work hard, Tang Li Xue! Here goes nothing! GO!''
Chapter 24 - 24: Weird Tall Pagoda!
Chapter 24 - 24: Weird Tall Pagoda!
Tang Li Xue left terrible pain across her body and she checked her current HP.
HP: 2,710/4,500
She was afraid that someone or some beasts would ambush her again in some building.
''Should I eat [Recovery Pill] to heal all of my wounds? But I only have seven of these things¡''
After hesitating for a while, Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and decided to eat the [Recovery Pill] since she thought she would probably get it again after reaching level 10 and open the [Lv 10 Beginner Package]ter.
Tang Li Xue popped the [Recovery Pill] into her mouth full of unwillingness.
She already witnessed how miraculous this pill was when she gave it to Xiao Hei before when he was critically wounded but watching how it works and let her body experience it by herself were two different things.
She immediately realized that all her wounds stop bleeding and her pain vanished like smoke, her wounds scabbed in a few seconds then fully healed before even one minute passed.
Her beautiful silver fur even grew back again on the ce where she got her wounds before and she was as good as new in only a few minutes.
HP: 4,500/4,500
''Damn! This is really good stuff! I must use these things more carefully in the future! I am afraid I will be targeted by people for these if I use it in front of anyone!''
Tang Li Xue wanted to finish this quest as fast as she can so she did not waste any more time and heading to the next building.
Actually, there were many other buildings in this farm but most of them were the huts for all the caretakers to live in.
Tang Li Xue did not feel any need to check all of them one by one since the quest only said ''Explore Asura Demon Sect''s Farm'' and not to ''Explore every building in Asura Demon Sect''s Farm'' so she only needs to check all the important buildings in the farm.
The next building was a 7-floor tall pagoda.
At first, Tang Li Xue felt something was weird with this building when she saw the tall pagoda from the distance.
But after she arrived at the near pagoda, she immediately aware that this 7-floor tall pagoda actually did not have any window at all!
''What a weird ce! I have a bad feeling about this¡''
This time Tang Li Xue already learned her lesson from before and looking for some kind of warning notice or clue about it.
There was no signboard this time but she managed to find a warning notice written on a piece of paper pasted on beside the double-door gate.
''BEWARE OF YOUR HEAD! PLEASE WEAR A STEEL HELMET BEFORE ENTERING!''
''DO NOT FORGET TO CLOSE THE DOOR AFTER GETTING IN OR OUT!''
''No sh*t! With this tiny body of mine if I wear a human''s steel helmet then I will not even be able to see the road in front of me! Moreover, where I could find a steel helmet in the middle of the night like this?!''
Tang Li Xue thought this tall pagoda would be locked and she must search for the key first but she was wrong this time, she could push the door with her tiny furry paws and enter easily.
''So dark here¡ is there some kind of bulb or light here?''
She cannot see anything inside the pagoda at all since it was so dark without any speck of light here.
However, she still remembers about ''beware of your head'' warning so she walking carefully with her head dropped down as low as possible.
It was already human nature¡ err and beast nature if someone warned them ''watch out for your head'' they would stop paying attention to the ground and focused their attention to anything above their head, that was including the current Tang Li Xue too.
The warning was not a trap at all. On the contrary, it was really correct but unfortunately Tang Li Xue''s luck already up this time.
CLAAAAANG~~!!!
''Ouch¡ F*ck! What the hell is this?!''
Her surrounding was so dark that she did not know what she hit just now but it looks like some kind of metal te or basin¡ but that was not important anymore right now.
Because¡ hundreds tiny pairs of green eyes lit up at the same time after Tang Li Xue identally knocked on the metal basin.
From the wall to the ceiling all covered by the tiny pair of green eyes and Tang Li Xue also realize that this pagoda was actually only one floor since no floor separated it at all!
''OH¡ MY¡ GOD¡ WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!RETREEEAAAT!''
Tang Li Xue dashed toward the gate with her full speed, she also activated her [Sprint] swiftly without any hesitation! Since this was not the time to worry about breaking her [Stealth] skill with it!
Countless tiny pairs of green eyes flew toward her with frightening speed at the same time like a flood! Only countless faint sounds of wing pping can be heard!
''MOMMY! THIS IS BEYOND FRIGHTENING, OKAY?! HEEEEEELP! CARETAKER! GROOM! KEEPER!''
After exited from the pagoda, she quickly pulled the door with her tiny paws and closed it! She could even hear countless banging sound from behind the sturdy door after that!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue did not enter too deeply into the pagoda yet or she would already be caught by those¡ things by now!
''Sigh¡ Now I know why to open the door I must push it instead of pull it from outside and why it is not locked. If the door can be pushed from inside then those countless little critters would already escape from there! And there is no need to lock it since they cannot pull the door from inside with their tiny wing anyway! ''
BAAAAAANG!!!
-560
HP: 3,940/4,500
''AAAAAAHHHH!!!''
Tang Li Xue''s tiny body rolled a few meters on the ground as she felt something heavy hit her from her right side!
When she saw what exactly that hit her, she realized that one of the little critters from inside the pagoda escaped outside with her!
[Species: sh Bat]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 5]
[HP: 7,500/7,500]
A ck bat as big as an a.d.u.l.t palm but it has a pair of sharp horns on the top of its head and that tiny pair of green eyes that glow like a pair of fireflies was very creepy.
''Another [Umon] grade demonic beasts! But its level along with its health is quite low for a [Umon] grade demonic beast¡ Let''s do this then! FIGHT!''
Tang Li Xue could actually run from it but she was afraid that this escaped little critter would create amotion and draw unwanted attention before she could finish her quest so, in the end, she decided to y it!
However, Tang Li Xue did not know that this sh Bat was actually used for delivering a message or letter. It did not afraid sun at all, could see clearly at night, and the most important of all, it was unbelievably fast!
Unfortunately, this sh Bat has low defense and health¡ in short, this sh Bat was actually the same type as Tang Li Xue, high speed but brittle defense!
Also, this sh Bat has an important ability that Tang Li Xue did not have, flight!
''Dammit! I can''t reach that little critter at all!''
The sh bird dived down suddenly at breakneck speed toward Tang Li Xue.
BAAAAANG~~!!!
-620
HP: 3,320/4,500
Again Tang Li Xue threw several meters behind because of the impact.
''Dammit! I must think something fast!''
Chapter 25 - 25: Moon Fox VS Flash Bat!
Chapter 25 - 25: Moon Fox VS sh Bat!
The gear in Tang Li Xue''s head was spinning at full speed.
This was not in the game where she can spam her skills hoping it to hit the enemy and her enemy was also not some dumb AI from some Action RPG game!
[Umon] grade beast''s intelligence already quite high although still cannot bepared to humans but it could still bepared to a dolphin at the very least. However, their battle instinct was surely better than most humans.
Tang Li Xue already tried to copy the sh Bat''s flight ability but she failed in the end.
Well, it was actually not its ability but more like the skill it gained from its body parts so since Tang Li Xue did not a pair of wings, she cannot copy flight!
This principle also applied to fishes. Tang Li Xue can copy its [Swim] skills but she cannot copy its ability to breathe underwater since she did not have any gills.
Tang Li Xue also already took [Ice Bolt] into consideration but her enemy this time was not a dumb Ice Wolf that stood still while spraying countless sharp icicles like before but a very fast-moving beast that could move freely in the sky.
And her [Ice Bolt] was not a sniper rifle with a proper telescope and she was also not someone trained in sniping a moving object!
In short, her probability to hit her fast-moving target was smaller than a blind man trying to score bullseye in the darts game.
However, that was not an excuse for her to surrender and admit defeat! She managed to formte a working strategy in a few seconds.
''Okay... It''s simple! I only need to target its wings, right?! Easy!''
Without hesitation, Tang Li Xue opened her skill list panel and used one of her skill point to buy [Jump] skill!
''Here ites again!''
This time Tang Li Xue did not stand still or trying to dodge it like before since she knew it was useless then she decided to charge forward toward the sh Bat instead with her full speed!
BAAAAAAAAANG~~!
-1020
HP: 2,300/4,500
This crash was a lot harder than before and the damage she received also higher. The recoil was so nasty that it made her tiny furry body threw high in the air instead of rolled on the ground like before.
Tang Li Xue forced to gulp down the fishy taste of her own blood on her mouth back to her throat while shook her head to clear the dizziness on her mind.
''NOW IS THE TIME!''
That nasty crash was not only affecting Tang Li Xue but also the sh Bat!
It forced to halt its movement for a few seconds and p its wings to stabilize itself from the crash recoil.
Tang Li Xue skillfully flipped her body on the mid-air and shot out her [Ice Bolt] toward the stunned sh Bat.
CLAAANK~~
The [Ice Bolt] shattered into pieces when it hit the sh Bat''s wing! The sh Bat did not hurt at all but its flight turned shaky because of it!
While Tang Li Xue''s body smashed to the ground after shooting the [Ice Bolt] from the mid-air but she gritted her teeth to withstand the pain and charged one again using her full speed toward the sh Bat!
The sh Bat panicked a bit and swiftly pping its wings to fly higher and keep its distance from Tang Li Xue.
But Tang Li Xue already long anticipated that!
[Jump]!
The [Jump] skill effect was the same as [Dash]. It did not give the user the ability to jump since everyone can jump but it enhanced the height of her jump twice higher!
Tang Li Xue came toward the sh Bat like aet and the sh Bat never thought that Tang Li Xue can jump that high so it did not have enough time to dodge.
[Rip]!
Tang Li Xue''s sharp fang sunk into the sh Bat''s left-wing tightly and she started to spam her closebat skills repeatedly toward sh Bat''s right-wing!
[Sharp w]!
[Sharp w]!
[Sharp w]!
[Sharp w has increased to Lv2]
The sh Bat could no longer tolerate Tang Li Xue''s assault and they started to plunge to the ground together.
BAAAAM~~
Tang Li Xue still persistent with her [Rip] skill and not let the sh Bat''s left-wing out of her mouth even after both of them crashed onto the ground.
''Aren''t you great at fighting in the sky? Now I bring you to the ground! What can you do here, hah! Hah!''
Tang Li Xue''s strength was getting stronger on the ground since she could stand using her 3 her furry paws and use 1 of her remaining paws to hold the sh Bat down!
She ripped the sh Bat''s left-wing apart using her [Rip] skill!
[Rip has increased to Lv2]
The rest of the fight was easy since without flight the sh Bat already losing most of its mobility and its attacking skill was only [Bite].
''Fuuuuuuh... Oh my God... I swear this is my hardest fight since I reincarnate until now!''
Actually, the element of surprise from the [Ice Bolt] was ying a very crucial part for her strategy if she already used it since the start of the battle, that sh Bat would already wary for it and would not startled until it lost bnce like that.
''Eh... what is that?''
Tang Li Xue picked a ck marble from inside the sh Bat.
After a quick search on her [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide], she managed to find that the ck marble was actually a beast core.
The beast core has the same use as the human''s dantian. Dantian was used to store the human''s Qi while the beast core was used to store the beast''s Vitality Energy.
''Isn''t that mean that this thing contains a lot of EXP? Let''s try it then...''
Tang Li Xue popped the ck beast core into her mouth. In the instant Tang Li Xue swallowed it down, the ck beast core melted in no time, and the great amount of energy erupted from inside Tang Li Xue''s body but it instantly converted into EXP by the system.
[Congrattion! You achieved level 8, +15 Stat Points, +3 Skill Points]
''Ooooh! Good stuff! If only I am strong enough to ughter all the little critters inside this pagoda... How many levels will I get by eating their beast core?!''
But it was only her wishful thinking forgets about defeating all of them, just defeating one already took too many of her health and stamina.
She ate another one of [Recovery Pill] leaving only five in her system inventory.
While waiting for her injury to recover for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue started to think about how she could explore that dark ce full of little critters...
After thinking hard and cannot find another solution, Tang Li Xue started to look around the thousands of skills registered inside the skill list panel and she manages to find an interesting skill thatpletely suitable for her current circ.u.mstance.
''Sigh... There is even a skill like this... I should learn it since long time ago!''
[Night Vision] ability!
''Definitely BUY!''
[You have gained Night Vision ability!]
With this ability, all of her problem to explore this weird pagoda was solved.
Tang Li Xue waited two hours to make sure all the little critters inside the weird pagoda went back to sleep while she recovered her stamina back to peak.
She activated her [Stealth], [Silencer], [Odorless], and [Night Vision] skills before opened the pagoda''s gate.
She started to explore the pagoda full of vignce but with her new skill [Night Vision] along with her [Silencer], she was sure everything should be okay now.
The windowless pagoda was not that vast but it was packed full with sh Bats if not hundreds then there were at least thousands of them inside here clinging on all over the wall and ceiling.
Yes, just like the usual bats that sleep clinging on the cave''s ceiling, sh bats also like that but it could also sleep clinging on the wall.
Tang Li Xue shuddered in fear and horror when she recalled that she was chased like a flood by all of these little critters at the same time before.
The smell of urine and feces was stinks so badly here! It was really a torture for Tang Li Xue''s sensitive nose and it almost made her fainted several times already.
After an hour or so, Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she finished exploring the weird pagoda. She did not forget to close the door after finish it.
''Ah, ah, ah¡. Sleepy! I want to sleep so badly! 2 more buildings to go and I will go to bed immediately after all of these exploration things over! Let''s make it haste!''
The second building was a big dome just like a baseball stadium, Tang Li Xue''s lips twitched violently when she saw this giant-sized building.
''Just how much the time I will need to explore such a huge building?! Sigh¡''
Tang Li Xue was learning from her previous experience now. She did not waste any more time and activated all five of her infiltration skills.
[Stealth]!
[Odorless]!
[Trail Cover]!
[Silencer]!
[Erasing Presence]!
She could only sustain for more or less two minutes when she activated all five of them like this but she needs to do this at least to scout the situation inside the giant dome first before hiding back again to rest and recharge her stamina.
This was the safest way that she could think for now.
Different from the weird pagoda from before, the double-door gate in this huge dome was open wide and inside also very bright.
But Tang Li Xue did not drop her guard at all, on the contrary, she raised her guard even more since this ce opened wide and bright, that also means there were people inside.
And Tang Li Xue''s guess was correct this time since even before she could step inside the gate, she could already heard many people shouting from inside.
"GO, GO, GO, GO! FAST OR YOU WILL NOT GET ANY BREAKFAST TODAY!"
''This¡ This ce is actually¡''
Chapter 26 - 26: Confinement Fortress
Chapter 26 - 26: Confinement Fortress
Well, how could she describe this? Chaotic?
There were many people here, crowded even¡ and they were doing different things.
There were people that let their demonic beasts fought against each other on the top of the arena while as their masters they put their bet on their demonic beast to win. The people around them also put their bet on their favorite demonic beast.
[Hell Hound] VS [Root Deer]
Betting Ratio = 10 : 6
Tang Li Xue dumbfounded: ''Isn''t this like c.o.c.kfighting? But rather than c.o.c.ks, they using Demonic Beasts instead!''
When Tang Li Xue came in, the [Hell Hound] already bit [Root Deer]''s neck tightly as its blood gushed out fiercely.
[Root Deer] struggled hard to break away but it was in vain, just as everyone thinks that there was no hope for the [Root Deer] to win, it taps on the ground with its hoof and¡
BAAANG~~! PPPPSSSSHH!
A tree spike came out from the ground and pierced the [Hell Hound] stomach!
The [Hell Hound] released its bite and lied down powerlessly on the ground, it wailed loudly in pain as his blood poured out nonstop from its wound.
"You dipsh*t! You make me lost a lot of money! F*ck! What the use I feed you every day!" The tall guy probably was the [Hell Hound]''s owner but there was nopassion in his words as he keeps cursing his [Hell Hound] and he even kicks it several times without care about its life and death.
''Hahaha¡ I win! Yeeeesss! Pay, quickly pay me all of you! Hahahaha¡" This scrawny guy was [Root Deer] but he only thought of his own bet and money even though his [Root Deer] was actually in no better shape than the [Hell Hound] though it still stood up unsteadily for now.
Tang Li Xue watched them full of disgust and contempt; she can''t even distinguish which one was humans anymore!
It was different from her previous world where if their dog or cat sick like having a fever, they would bring it immediately to a veterinarian.
She quickly went in deeper and ignored all of those inhuman owners.
Tang Li Xue deactivated all of her skills except [Stealth] since she did not need it in here.
Inside the giant dome, other than demonic beast''s arena, there were many of them sell many kinds of demonic beasts from small to big inside the cage or its unhatched eggs even their beast cores.
There were also some vendors that sell pills and herbs, some even sell all kinds of weapons like sword, saber, etc.
''This is the ck market, isn''t it? To think there is a ck market at this size inside the farm! It''s operating at midnight too!''
Tang Li Xue spent a few hours to explore this ck market, at first she was quite interesting on the things their offer but she quickly lost her interest and look around quickly to save her time.
Well, it was not like she could but anything here! She was a fox after all! And she was also very poor! Watching those things will only make her drool but she cannot have it and could only watch it from afar.
Of course, she could try to steal it but the majority of people here were wearing blue-robe, in other words, most of the people here were at Qi Condensation Stage!
Some of them even wearing red-robe and ck robe! Core disciples and elders!
Even someone as daring as Tang Li Xue, she did not want to throw her life in vain here!
When Tang Li Xue finished exploring the ck market and went out, she realized that the night almost over.
She only had one or two more hours before the sun truly raisee but she quickly calm down since only one more building left for her to explore.
''Only one more! It should be enough! It should not be a problem if I handle it more carefully this time!''
Tang Li Xue did not waste any more time and headed to thest building!
Thest building located at the most remote and barren ce on the farm.
This time the building was like a small fortress. Smaller than the big dome and the weird pagoda from before but did not know why Tang Li Xue felt a strong pressureing out from this small fortress.
Tang Li Xue raised her guard to the max in an instant since even the weird pagoda full of sh Bats from before did not emit any noticeable strong pressure like this small fortress.
In other words, whatever creatures inside here, it was definitely far stronger than all of the sh Bats in the weird pagodabined.
''Sigh¡ I want to go home already! I miss my bed in Xiao Hei''s room so badly!''
But she did not want to give up, not after all the effort, danger, and fighting that she had been through! She had no other choice other than moving forward and finishes this quest as soon as possible!
Tang Li Xue activated her [Stealth], [Odorless], [Trail Cover], [Silencer], and [Erasing Presence] skills like before to scout the situation first like before.
Surprisingly, the double-door gate was not locked. Tang Li Xue could push it easily and enter.
The light was quite dim inside with only a few torches that illuminate the interior.
At least, Tang Li Xue did not need to use her [Night Vision] to see her surroundings.
Small fortress interior also nothing impressive since it was quite hollow in Tang Li Xue''s opinion.
The space inside was also very narrow unlike the fortress at all. At least, for Tang Li Xue it was really narrow despite its size from the outside.
''Meh¡ Suit my taste then! I can explore it faster if this ce is only this small!''
Since this small fortress looks safe, Tang Li Xue turned off all of her infiltration skills again except [Stealth].
But when turned them off¡
"O???¡ A?? ??? ??s?, ???? W???? ??? ??? ???? ?????"
Tang Li Xue''s heart almost leaped out from her mouth when the giant red eyes opened up in front of her.
When the gigantic creature rose its head, Tang Li Xue that still trembling in fright manages to get a good look at its true form.
''This¡ This¡ Isn''t this A DRAGON?! A TRUE DRAGON IN FLESH! Isn''t the guide said that the true dragon and phoenix only exist in Divine World?!''
The creature in front of her actually resembled the western dragon in fairy tale book!
[Species: Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]
[Grade: Rare]
[Level: 65]
[HP: ??????/??????]
''Or¡ Not¡ So it is not a dragon¡''
But it really closes enough with its brown scales, red eyes, and a wide pair of bat-like wings.
At first, Tang Li Xue was really scared but after she saw countless chains as thick as the barrel tightly bounded that [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard], her fear vanished in an instant.
Moreover, although its figure was very scary and intimidating but Tang Li Xue could feel that this fake dragon was actually quite kind and warm-hearted from its words since if it wanted to kill her, he would done so already without asked something like that.
''[Rare] grade?! Level 65! Damn! This fake dragon must be only one step away from evolving into a spirit beast!''
"S???¡ S? ??? ??? s???? ???? ? s????? ???s?¡ I? ????s ???? I ???? ??? ?????? ??? ????? I ?????????? ??s??? ??? ??????? ?? ? ???? s????? ???s?. "
The fake dragon sighed in disappointment and it starting to depress over himself.
''Okay, I changed my mind¡ this dumb fake dragon is not kind and warm-hearted at all!''
Chapter 27 - 27: Mr.Fake Dragon Previous Life Must Be...
Chapter 27 - 27: Mr.Fake Dragon Previous Life Must Be...
Tang Li Xue pointed her tiny paw at the fake dragon then hugged herself like being bounded and made thumb down gesture.
''You¡ being bounded¡ uncool!''
She even spat to the ground while put her disdain expression in the end.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard current dumbfounded expression right now was identical with Xiao Hei''s first reaction when he met with Tang Li Xue.
"You! Are you really a savage beast?! Impossible! How could your intelligence already so high when you still only a savage beast?! You¡ you must be a spirit beast in disguise, right?!''
"But¡ that''s also impossible I don''t feel any vitality energy emitting out from your body so you must be still a savage beast!"
The fake dragon still blinked its eyes again and again in disbelief like trying to wake up from a dream while keep shaking its giant head like a rattle drum.
Tang Li Xue rolled back her eyes in disdain, she really looking down on ''this frog in the bottom of the well'' fake dragon that never sees the world.
''Come on¡for God sake, you are a fake dragon that only one step away from bing a spirit beast! Is this really THAT big of a deal?!''
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard woke up from its stupor after it saw Tang Li Xue''s disdain expression keep increasing toward him.
"Cough¡ Cough¡ Kid, where are youe from? Who is your master? Are you lost?" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard coughed up a few times then put its dignified expression back.
''Tsk¡ it''s already toote for you to act like a respectable fake dragon!'' Tang Li Xue thought but she was trying to buy some time to explore this ce so she would try to act a bit nicer to this fake dragon for now.
Tang Li Xue sat on the ground and put her two paws on her back then started to put cold murderous expression on her face. She was currently acted like how Xiao Hei usually appears in front of others, cold and aloof.
"Eh¡ So you are the pet of that Mo brat?! Sigh¡" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard sighed and its eyes were full of reminiscing then he keeps quiet for a few seconds while staring at Tang Li Xue intensely.
"Kid¡ No¡ Lass, tell me frankly! Do you fell in love with that Mo brat? That''s why you follow him back here?"
At first, Tang Li Xue thought that the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard only trying to tease her but after seeing its dead-serious expression, Tang Li Xue realized that this fake dragon was trying to tell her something important.
Tang Li Xue considered it for a few minutes seriously¡ Was she really fallen in love with Xiao Hei before that was why she follows him here?
''Meh¡ Of course not! To be honest, if I can make my own me and cooking my own roasted meat with these tiny paws of mine, I will probably note to this sh*tty trap hole full of scheming and cruel cultivators!''
That was really the truth, Tang Li Xue was a poor sickly girl in her previous life, she lived in slum, never ate any delicious food, and she even often starved for a few days even half a month!
In this new life, the one that she worries the most besides her survival was not happiness but food!
As long as she can eat delicious food every day until she was full then that it was already happiness for her!
You should never say that she was a glutton or a dumb because of her choice because someone that said that certainly never felt starved for a few days or even a half month before!
We could actually see this easily if the world really in the brick of apocalypse, what all humans do would be stocking food and drink in the bunker, not gold or money!
In the end, Tang Li Xue shook her head to indicate that she did not have any feelings for Xiao Hei.
"That is good then! Remember this,ss¡ Humans are evil and treacherous creatures! You should never believe in what they say! Do you hear me? NEVER BELIEVE IN HUMAN!"The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said with a serious tone with even a hint of threatening.
''What''s wrong with this fake dragon? Is it fallen in love with human before? And betrayed? This is bad though it''s too emotional for now! I should calm him down first or I will never finish my quest like this! ''
Tang Li Xue nodded her head while waving her paws around to calm down the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard but it could feel that Tang Li Xue did not believe in it.
"Lass, I know that you don''t believe me¡ Then I will ask you first. Did you see what happen in that ck market? Why are those demonic beasts did not rebel or reject their masters'' order to fight each other to death?" " The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard asked seriously while kept staring at Tang Li Xue.
''That''s right?! Why¡..'' This question was also ringing in Tang Li Xue''s mind before but she decided to forget about it for now and focus on finishing her quest first.
"The answer is simple! Master-servant contract! Once it signed, the demonic beast would never be able to reject its master order! And if the master is dead, their contracted demonic beast life would be dead too! While if the demonic beast dead, its master would not be affected at all!"
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard exined patiently to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue stunned by the fake dragon''s exnation.
''What the hell with that unfair contract! I, This Queen would never sign it even if This Queen''s life is at stake!''
"Do you think you can reject it? Haha¡ If you are weaker than the human that wanted to contract you then that human can force you into signing the contract whatever you like or not! Heck, that human don''t even need to be stronger than you, they can ask for their elders'' help!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard could read Tang Li Xue''s expression and exined it.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned darker and gloomier each time she heard the fake dragon''s exnation.
''But¡ but¡ Xiao Hei would not force me to sign that unfair contract, right? I mean we are friends, right?''
"Do you think that Mo brat is different than the other because he did not force you to sign that master-servant contract until now? WRONG! He did not do it before because you are still a savage beast! You still have not formed your beast core yet so he cannot make you sign the master-servant contract! The moment you be a demonic beast, he would certainly force you to sign it immediately!"
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard mercilessly trampled Tang Li Xue''s hope with his words.
Tang Li Xue was really depressed right now even her ears and tail turned limp.
Looking at the despaired Tang Li Xue, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard also felt guilty so he tried tofort her.
"Listen up, Lass¡ It''s not my intention to put pressure on you but I only wanted you to know your situation clearly! When I see that you have a high intelligence, I could feel that you will have a bright future in front of you! Your chance to be a spirit beast probably higher than mine¡"
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said to Tang Li Xue as its gaze toward her turned gentler.
"I don''t want you to be disillusioned by that Mo brat! I don''t want you to be daydreaming all day to marry that Mo brat! Because human and beast would never have a happy ending! In my tens of thousand years of my life, I never witness any happy ending between human and beast!"
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard still tried to convince Tang Li Xue but Tang Li Xue already entered deep into her thinking mode so she cannot hear the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s words anymore.
''Dammit! What a close call! Fortunately, I met with this fake dragon before I evolved further to [Umon] grade! It would be toote if Xiao Hei already forced me into signing that master-servant contract! I have to start to make a new n for my future!''
On the contrary to how the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s see, Tang Li Xue did not feel that depressed or frustrated at all. She even already started to think a way to escape from this Asura Demon Sect safely.
"When you be a spirit beast you may be able to gain a human form then you probably started to think that love between human and beast is possible this way. But that is a really big mistake! Spirit beast''s life couldst for hundreds of thousands of years but human? Even if they are high ranked cultivators, they could only live for a few thousands of years!"
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard kept bbering on and on¡..
"Maybe the rtionship between human and beast couldst for tens or even hundreds of years but that''s it! The humans would start to feel bored and weary then they would begin to search for new women or men to satisfy their desire! Us, the beasts are always devoted and faithful, only love one mate in our entire life, but humans are different from us, they are the treacherous species where they would say A today and say B tomorrow! They cannot be trusted at all!"
Tang Li Xue''s mouth started to twitch violently as her patience growing thin.
''F*ck! This fake dragon really can talk! Mr. Fake Dragon, you must be a lecturer or awyer in your previous life, aren''t you? AREN''T YOU?! No, he must be a religious preacher as all of his words are so DAMN convincing! Even I started to hate humans now even though I AM A HUMAN in my previous life! ENOUGH! STOOOOOOOP IT! I want to negotiate¡ err¡ talk too¡''
Chapter 28 - 28: Promise
Chapter 28 - 28: Promise
Without waiting for the chatterbox fake dragon to stop its preaching, Tang Li Xue put some gesture to show to the fake dragon.
Tang Li Xue pointed at the thick chain that bound the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard, pointed back at herself then make a breaking gesture in the end.
"Ehh¡ You, littless want to release me?! Pfffft¡ BWAHAHAHA¡ So¡ So funny¡BWAHAHAHA!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizardughed out loud until all of the chains that bound it shook violently as if it was hearing the funniest joke.
"Listen up littless, all of these chains are forged from the rare precious metal. Forget about your tiny little ws, even if Core Formation Stage human hacking it with an ax for hundreds of times still won''t be able to put any dent on it!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard sighed in resignment while shaking his head.
After hearing that, Tang Li Xue started to run around and searching for something.
"Oy¡ Oy¡ Oy¡ littless, what are you searching for? Ah, I know! Is it a key? You are searching for the key, aren''t you? Then it is futile¡ that bald fatty is the one that keeps it!" The fake dragon said it while keep staring at Tang Li Xue that still running around.
''Damn! So this chain''s key is on that Xiao Hei''s uncle? Then it''s impossible for me to take it for now! Sh*t¡ why is it like this?! Isn''t RPG''sw always stated that the key definitely stored in the same building?!''
Tang Li Xue thought that she could release this big old fake dragon and escape together from this sect but it looks like that this idea was not feasible anymore since she did not have any more way to release this fake dragon!
Nevertheless, Tang Li Xue was still pretending to frantically search for the key now, her true motive was to explore all the small rooms and the area around the fake dragon to finish her quest.
Ding!
[Quest Completed]!
[Reward: Level +3(+1), Skill Point+45(+11), Stat Point+9(+2), 150(+38) Deity Coins]
Ding!
[Congrattion! You achieved level 11, +45 stat points, +9 Skill Points]
[Your level reached maximum cap! +1 level will be stored forter use!]
[Congrattion! You have reached level 11! 2nd evolution menu avable!]
''Yeeeeeessss! Thank God! Atst, this questpleted! But this system is really stingy¡ why I don''t get any additional reward now?! Sigh¡''
''Forget it! The most important thing is I can evolve once more now¡ or not¡ since if I evolve to a demonic beast and form my beast core then Xiao Hei or another human with higher cultivation than me can force me to sign the master-servant contract¡ sigh¡ what a bad luck!''
Tang Li Xue sat back again in front of the fake dragon after exploring¡ err¡ searching around but she finds that the fake dragon put on its dumbfounded expression once more.
''What''s wrong with this mental fake dragon now?''
"You¡ You¡ What happen to you? Little Lass, I can feel that you got stronger suddenly without doing anything other than running around!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard asked suspiciously while brought its giant head closer to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue panicked a bit, she was afraid that this fake dragon finds out about her secret so she immediately put sleepy act and yawned since she was also afraid that the fake dragon would bbering non-stop and not let her leave.
"Uh¡ Oh¡ Maybe it''s only my feeling¡ Cough¡ Well, I will gift you something as our first meeting gift!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard raised itsrge w and moved it toward Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue reflexes kicked in and she wanted to retreat back but after thinking that this fake dragon did not have any intention to hurt her, she quickly rxed back.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard giant w''s tip touched Tang Li Xue''s forehead gently.
The blinding crimson light engulfed Tang Li Xue in an instant if someone saw this scene, they would probably be thinking that The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard actually cursing Tang Li Xue.
Ding!
[You have received (Winged Lizard Blessing)]!
''??????!!!!!!!''
''What the hell is this?''
"Listen up, littless! With this, no human weaker than me can force you to sign the master-servant contract from now on! Of course with the exception if you sign it voluntarily yourself! Let''s see¡ since I am practically invincible under Nascent Soul Stage so no human below Nascent Soul Stage can force you!"
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard exined while nodded satisfied that Tang Li Xue obediently trust it.
But if Tang Li Xue ran in fear then The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard would not bother to give her its blessing anymore or exin it.
''Seriously?! WOOOOAAAAAHHH! With this, I don''t need to worry about bing a ve of other people! You¡ You are so kind! Too bad you are a chatterbox and ugly¡''
"Do not be too happy yet, Little Lass! What if the human that cannot force you to submit to be their pet decide to kill you in the end out of anger?" The fake dragon words were like sshing cold water to the happy Tang Li Xue.
Tang?Li Xue instantly became sulk again.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard realized what it did and panicked a bit then it tried to cheer Tang Li Xue up again.
"Uhhh¡ Sorry, littless¡ It was not my intention to¡ How about this¡ If you manage to release me someday then I promise that I will be your mount! How about that?"
Tang Li Xue''s dim eyes shone brightly like a pair of blue stars in an instant!
''WHUUUUUUAAAAAAAT???!!! Be my mount? This¡ this is serious, right?! You do not lie to me, right?! Holysh*t! A fox like me riding a dragon! Woaaah, so dreamy! I¡ I cannot wait anymore! Uwehehehe¡''
Tang Li Xue was still drowning deep in her fantasy and grinning by herself.
"But remember¡ you should be careful too! Do not force yourself and risk your life to get the key! It will be futile if you get caught while you are trying to steal it!"
The fake dragon chatterbox mode triggered again and it kept reminded Tang Li Xue again and again.
Tang Li Xue felt annoyed but her heart also warmed up while thinking: ''Maybe¡this is how having a mother should be¡ keep nagging and worry about me¡''
Tang Li Xue always felt like she was an orphan in her previous life since her mother died when giving birth to her and her father ran away leaving only his debt behind.
While in this life, she was once again alone without any parents beside her.
Tang Li Xue waved her paw toward the fake dragon saying goodbye for today while promise to it that she woulde againter with her gesture.
After Tang Li Xue left the fake dragon''s fortress, someone came out from nowhere inside the fortress near the fake dragon.
"Is that Yun-er''s pet? What a smart and interesting fox?!"
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was opened up its mouth in surprise and quickly turned its giant head toward where that soundes from.
It found out that the sound came from a wrinkled old man with long white beard and white hair. But the creepiest was not even the fake dragon and Tang Li Xue knew know how long this old man entered this fortress?!
Did he came before or after Tang Li Xue enter the fortress?!
No one knew!
Not even the strong Red-Eyes Winged Lizard?!
The person that the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard hated the most, Xiao Hei''s grandfather, Mo Chanming.
Mo Chanming''s expression was kind and humble with a gentle smile that keep stered on his face all the time but in this entire Asura Demon Sect, only The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard?knew how cruel and heartless this old man was.
"I wonder what are you and that fox talking about for so long?" Mo Chanming turned his head and staring at The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard actually cannot talk and itmunicated with Tang Li Xue directly into her mind using [Telepathy] while Tang Li Xuemunicated with it using her gesture, that was why Mo Chanming cannot hear any words the two of them.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard stared back at Mo Chanming full of disgust and pretended to not hear anything.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard lowered its giant head back to the ground, itpletely ignored Mo Chanming, and went back to sleep.
Mo Chanming did not get angry since The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard reaction toward him was always like. He only turned back his gaze toward where Tang Li Xue heading back to with his usual creepy gentle smile.
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue''s head was really hurt right now. There were many things that she must do from thinking about her escape n, should she steal the fake dragon''s key and release the fake dragon before escaping, to how she will handle her own evolution.
''Whatever¡ to hell with all those things! What I want and need the most right now is to lie downfortably on my warm and cozy pillow (Xiao Hei''s body) then fell asleep!''
But after she went back to Xiao Hei''s courtyard, before she was entering his room¡
PRAAAAAAANG!!!
"THAT BASTARD LIN XIANG! I SWEAR I WILL TORTURE AND KILL HIM ONE DAY!"
Chapter 29 - 29: Two Choices
Chapter 29 - 29: Two Choices
''Uh... Oh... What happens to Xiao Hei when I was gone?''
Tang Li Xue wanted to sneak in to see what exactly happened inside.
She activated her [Stealth] skill and jumped into Xiao Hei''s room from the side window
Like Tang Li Xue''s guess, Xiao Hei was really inside his room but his current appearance is really messy.
Bloodshot eyes, disheveled hair, and clothesbined with his pale face even Tang Li Xue cannot bear to look at him like this.
But Tang Li Xue did not want to interrupt Xiao Hei''s business so she only watched from the corner of the room for now and silently listening what they talking about.
Xiao Hei was not alone in his room, there was also his subordinate kneeled in front of him silently in the room keep informing information to Xiao Hei.
To summary it all, Xiao Hei was in deep trouble this time. His faction alreadycked resources before but now his fatty uncle pressured him even more through Elder Liu.
Elder Liu was a renowned alchemist with high-ranking in Asura Demon Sect and no need to be asked again, he was in cahoots with Xiao Hei''s fatty uncle.
For all the renowned alchemists that worked for Asura Demon Sect, the sect would provide all the herbs and materials that the alchemists needed to concocting the pills but they must give 80% of the pills that they sessfully concocted to the sect while they could take the remaining 20%.
However, Elder Liu pressured Xiao Hei''s faction that he would only concoct their pills if they give him 50% while Xiao Hei could only take another 50%.
That was why Xiao Hei fuming with rage, imagine 20% of the sect total pills was already unimaginable wealth but Elder Liu asked for 50% of it now! It was the same as asking the dragons for half of the blood in their body!
But the certain fox that lie down rxed on the corner of the room before suddenly stood up. Her eyes turned into slit and her mouth curled upward as she imagined how much wealth in that greedy Elder Liu''s possession.
''That whatever Liu definitely have so many pills in his room that he would be unable to count it all anymore! He probably would not even know it if I took a few bottles of pills from there!''
The more Tang Li Xue thought about it, the more excited she bes even her silky furry tails wagging faster and faster.
However, in the end, Xiao Hei could not do anything to Elder Liu since he was under the fatty uncle''s protection and Xiao Hei could only try to discuss the pills allocation with Elder Liu even further or trying to find a new renowned high-ranking alchemist to be Xiao Hei''s faction personal alchemist.
But it was easier to say than do it though since high-ranking alchemist that could concoct high-grade pills was not a cabbage that you could find anywhere. All of them were truly rare, only one in ten thousand and most of them already join one of the virtuous sects, Alchemist Sect.
Xiao Hei rubbed his aching head and sent his subordinate out to do his own job back.
Only after Xiao Hei closed his own room''s door that he realized that Tang Li Xue already back into his room.
"Xiao Bai! Where did you gost night?! Do you know I am so worried about you?!" Xiao Hei walked toward Tang Li Xue and gently hugged her.
''O¡Oh¡ I am sorry¡''
Tang Li Xue closed her eyesfortably when Xiao Hei stroke andb her silky fur gently from her head to her back.
"If you dare to not go back again likest night then This Seat will not cook your favorite roasted meat for you the next day! Do you understand?!" Xiao Hei reprimanded Tang Li Xue harshly.
Tang Li Xue did not know that Xiao Hei was actually waiting for her toe back for the entire night yesterday.
He even began to panic when the sun has raised but his favorite Xiao Bai still did note back. This was also the reason for his disheveled look. If it was his usual self, he would never show this kind of pitiful appearance to his own subordinate since it will only show them his weakness.
Do not look that Xiao Hei always treated Tang Li Xue like his pet but actually, no one really knows since when Tang Li Xue upied the most important part in Xiao Hei''s heart now.
Xiao Hei never knew who his mother was and his father was always very strict toward him, too strict even! So Xiao Hei was really cannot feel his father''s love toward him, he only knew that his father was a very responsible guy toward sect and he always training like a possessed person.
No one knows but the one that closest to him was actually Feng Yi (the aide that betrayed him).
They always training together since little and Feng Yi was always beside Xiao Hei doing all of Xiao Hei''s orders perfectly without any mistake.
For Xiao Hei, Feng Yi was his childhood friend, her brother closer than his own father, and a very reliable subordinate.
The most painful of Feng Yi''s betrayal was actually not that ck dagger wound that almost took Xiao Hei''s life but the wound that scarring his heart, his belief, his trust, and how he truly sees this world as.
That was also why Xiao Hei killed Feng Yi at that instant before because he was afraid that after he heard Feng Yi''s excuse, he (Xiao Hei) will really forgive Feng Yi in the end even after Feng Yi betrayed him.
At the moment that Xiao Hei lost his closest brother, his most important subordinate, and a childhood friend he fully trusted, his Xiao Bai came into his world recing Feng Yi as its pir before his worldpletely crumbles to pieces.
It was really a series of coincidence actually!
If at that time the one that helped Xiao Hei was a human, he would definitely not feel this way. He would be suspicious and paranoid thinking that the person that helped him would definitely want something from him. In the end, he would only award them generously and say goodbye to them.
But the one that helped him was actually a small powerless savage beast! With her tiny body, she brings him to a safe ce! Then search for his antidote from the entire Moonlight Forest that was full of danger! She even used such precious rare herbs that can cure critical wounds in an instant to treat him!
It was very difficult for Xiao Hei''s heart to not be moved by Tang Li Xue''s kindness and devotion.
For the current Xiao Hei, Tang Li Xue was his world''s pir. He was so sure that Tang Li Xue would not like the traitorous Feng Yi. He was also so sure that as a beast, Tang Li Xue would faithfully follow him as long as he treats her very well.
But you know, I think this kind of coincidence was actually not really a coincidence but it caused by the [Lucky Sticker] that Tang Li Xue used when she saved Xiao Hei before.
However, since luck was intangible and no one could actually prove it so let''s skip it for now.
With Tang Li Xue in his embrace, Xiao Hei''s strained nerve quickly loosened up and when he ying around with Tang Li Xue in a rxed manner on his bed, he identally fell asleep in the end.
Tang Li Xue was staring at Xiao Hei''s sleeping face intensively while Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s words and warning keep ying in her mind again and again.
''Xiao Hei¡ If I really evolve¡ would you really¡ sigh¡ Unfortunately, there is no ''if'' in this world! I, Tang Li Xue would never put my life on the other people''s hands anymore! Not even God!''
Her mother died giving birth to her, her father ran away leaving only his debt, while her big brother sustained PVS (Persistent Vegetate State) after working hard to pay for her medication fee.
Since then Tang Li Xue always believed that if she leaned to earth, the earth will crumble and if she relied on heaven, the heaven will copse! She could never rely on anyone but herself!
Tang Li Xue also ended up sleeping in Xiao Hei''s embrace since she was so tired running around, fighting, and exploring for the entire night until morning.
¡..
¡
.
When Tang Li Xue''s opened up her sleepy eyes and woke up, it was already noon.
Xiao Hei already went to work but he already cooked Tang Li Xue''s roasted meat personally and put it nicely on the table for her to eat as soon as she woke up.
While eating her favorite roasted meat, Tang Li Xue decided to check her 2nd evolution menu list to see what kind of species that she capable of evolving along with its requirement for evolution.
[You can choose between 2nd evolution or forming (Dantian). Which one do you choose? ]
''PFFFFFFTTTT!!! Cough¡ Cough¡ Cough¡''
Tang Li Xue almost choked to death because of these sudden choices.
Chapter 30 - 30: Tang Li Xue’s Choice
Chapter 30 - 30: Tang Li Xue¡¯s Choice
''Forming dantian?! Woooaaah¡ Is it means that I can transform into my human form now? Or¡ not¡ Since it did not mention anything about human form¡ Meh, what is the point then?! It is utterly useless, isn''t it?! Since I can form my dantian and regain my human form when I evolve into Spirit Beast¡''
Tang Li Xue stopped eating her roasted meat and began to consider her next choice.
If she chose 2nd evolution then she will one step closer to regain her human form, she will also get her current stats tripled like before, and get another OP divine ability as her trump card.
BUT¡ she always felt that her almighty system would never give any futile choice for her!
Tang Li Xue tried to think about the pros and the cons if she forms her dantian earlier.
Tang Li Xue squinted her eyes in realization when she found out that this damn system actually setting up a fatal trap for her.
YES, IT WAS A FATAL TRAP!
Actually, Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice other than choose to form her dantian now.
Why?
The answer was simple.
If we assumed that she chose 2nd evolution and manages to evolve into a Spirit Beast soon then regain her human form but all her beast power would be sealed temporarily including all her stats, skills, and divine abilities!
She would be as defenseless as a chicken without any means to protect herself although she will have dantian at that time but she would need to cultivate from the very bottom!
However, what if she began her cultivation from now? When she evolved into Spirit Beast and all her beast power temporarily sealed, she still has her cultivation in her dantian as her means to protect herself.
''So is it means I can cultivate like in wuxia novel and learn martial arts from now on?! Damn, this is good too! And the most exciting about this is¡ I CAN AWAKEN MY MARTIAL SOUL! Hahaha...''
She would also have more time to evolve her martial soul step by step ording to her n to get it into the invincible martial soul grade in her dream!
Of course, this choice also had its own disadvantage. For example, after forming dantian, her level would probably reset back to 1 and she needs to increase her level one by one again like before.
The level up this time would probably harder and need more EXP than before. Also ording to the previous pattern, she would need to reach level 16 this time to evolve into Demonic Beast and form her own beast core.
''I guess it can''t be helped¡ I really want to choose 2nd evolution but I am afraid that after I form my beast core, I must wait until I evolved into Spirit Beast to be able to form my dantian. Sigh¡''
Tang Li Xue would never think that this choice of her would bring unimaginable benefit for her when she evolved into a Spirit Beast in the future.
Since she already decided to form her dantian first then her problem right now was only to decide where and when she would form her dantian since she was afraid that it would create a greater phenomenon than when she evolve for the first time in Moonlight Forest before.
This problem gave Tang Li Xue quite a headache since there was no deserted ce here for her to be alone to form her dantian safely and quietly without anyone noticing it.
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly remembered her dragon mommy¡ err¡ she means that chatterbox dragon''s ce.
That prison fortress was deserted enough and she could even ask for that dragon mommy to protect her while she attempts to form her dantian there, that fake dragon probably would not reject her request.
As for the time, she decided to do it tomorrow morning rather than night because if she triggered the spectacr phenomenon and make that kind of blinding silver light like before, she was afraid that it would be too eye-catching if she did it at night and the probability for getting caught was a lot higher too. At least, if she did it in the morning, sunlight would cover that silver light to some extent.
Tang Li Xue''s nerve calmed down a lot after she made her choice and n for everything.
''Eeeh¡ Come to think of it, the system never says that I cannot take a peek at the 2nd evolution list before making my choice?! Huehehehe¡ I am really so smart! Let''s take a peek then¡ wahahaha¡ I always wonder what kind of OP species can I evolve into next time and what are all the requirements for its evolution?!''
Tang Li Xue skipped all the low requirement species since it should be trash-tier fox species and only nced at the species with the highest requirement like usual.
Out of tens of fox species, she only found three with the highest requirements for evolution.
[Royal Moon Fox] [Req: Strength=200; Agility=300; Toughness=200; take moonlight bath for 99 days; need to hold a crystal moon gem to evolve]
[Mystic Moon Fox] [Req: Strength=250; Agility=250; Toughness=200; take moonlight bath for 88 days; need to absorb a certain amount of mystic fog to evolve]
[Spirit Moon Fox] [Req: Strength=225; Agility=250; Toughness=225; take moonlight bath for 77 days; can only evolve under the full-moon; need to learn at least one spirit-rted divine ability to evolve]
''Uwaaaaah! All of them sound so powerful and cool! It''s really hard to choose! But urgh¡ WHAT THE HELL WITH THOSE EVOLUTION REQUIREMENTS! SO HIGH AND COMPLICATED!''
Now Tang Li Xue became even more certain that the system was actually only trolling at her when it gave her 2nd evolution choice. Look at that all those crazy requirements; she did not even fulfill any single one of those requirements!
As for the stats requirement, she only had 519 from the total of her current strength, agility, toughness, and her free stat points while she actually needs 700 to be able to fulfill the evolution requirement.
''And also¡ What the hell is this crystal moon gem, mystic fog, and¡ hahaha¡ spirit-rted divine ability? You must be joking, right? Where I could find any of those?! System, you must be joking with me, right?!''
Tang Li Xue felt her headache be even more painful now when she was thinking about where she could find all of those weird items needed for her evolution and she doubted that she could find any of it in this sect.
After finished eating all of her roasted meat, Tang Li Xue decided to forget all of her evolution problems for now since she already decided to form her dantian first.
Tang Li Xue did not have any more task since her level stuck at the maximum cap for now and she cannot level up further so she decided to wander around the sect and raising her skills'' level like [Odorless], [Trail Cover], [Silencer], [Erasing Presence], and [Jump] for today since she needs them to reach mastered level as soon as possible.
[Odorless skill has increased to Lv5]
[Trail Cover skill has increased to Lv4]
[Silencer skill has increased to Lv4]
[Erasing Presence skill has increased to Lv4]
[Jump skill has increased to Lv4]
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in satisfaction for her training result today and checked her current status.

[Gained: 3X2 Times Exp Card (1 hour), 1XSubstitute Doll, 1XGreater Lucky Sticker, 1XPremium Cultivation Voucher, 3XSilver Lottery Ticket, 1,500 Deity Coins, Level 20 Intermediate Gift Package]
''Yeeeessss! I got another [Greater Lucky Sticker]! Now I can feel more assured since I have 2 of it! And¡ I have 2 new items too¡ Let''s see!''
This [Premium Cultivation Voucher] maybe an upgraded version of [Cultivation Voucher]. She did not know its function since she cannot use it for now but she will be able to use it after she formed her dantian tomorrow.
Thest item was [Substitute Doll], Tang Li Xue took it out from her system inventory for her to see but her face turned into disgust as she held back her urge to threw it away the moment she saw it.
It was actually a straw doll like the one that you could usually see in voodoo magic. It was truly downright creepy. Even Tang Li Xue wanted to burn this creepy thing on the spot.
''Calm down, Tang Li Xue¡Every item from the system have the miraculous effect so this creepy doll should have some miraculous effect too! I just need to find how to use this creepy thing!''
Tang Li Xue observed the creepy doll carefully for a few hours but she still cannot find any clue about how to use it.
''Dammit! Is this creepy doll can be used to curse a person like in the movie? So I need to use a strand of hair from my target or something like that to activate it? Aaaarrrghhh¡ This curiosity of mine would really kill me someday!''
Tang Li Xue began to consider¡ Should she use her own fur to test this creepy thing or should she use a strand of hair from the person he hates like that bald fatty¡ err¡ let''s forget him since he didn''t even have a strand of hair on his shiny bald head.
''Hold on a second¡e to think of it, all of the items from the system usually have a straightforward name, that''s why it never bother to exin it like the divine ability. Then this creepy doll should not be used to curse any person since its name is not [Cursed Doll] but [Substitute Doll]?! Substitute¡ what is it mean?''
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and decided to put a few strands of her own silver furs into that creepy looking straw doll. She decided to believe the system since if it was really a cursed item, then the system should name it so like [Bad Luck Sticker].
Ding!
[Sessfully bind the Substitute Doll with the owner. From now on any damage or lethal damage the owner takes would be transferred to Substitute Doll.]
''WHUUUUUUUT?! This¡ This¡ This is such a precious treasure! And I almost wanted to use it to my enemy before¡ damn it! Luckily, I am smart enough!''
Tang Li Xue held the [Substitute Doll] very carefully like holding a priceless fragile herb. Very different from before when she held it like a smelly sock that she could not wait to throw it away as far as possible.
It was reasonable though since from now on all the damage that she took would be transferred to the doll. Even the most lethal skill that could kill her in one hit cannot kill her and it would only destroy the doll in her ce.
Tang Li Xue put the [Substitute Doll] back into her system inventory really carefully. She even grinned foolishly each time she thinks about that creepy¡ NO, it was a cute precious doll now.
''Now I have another life-saving item in my repertoire other than [Greater Lucky Sticker]! What''s more, it''s a different type of life-saving item than [Greater Lucky Sticker] where I must activate it first to get its protection buff effect! This [Substitute Doll] could also protect my life even from the sneak attack!''
Xiao Hei did note back that night maybe he was still busy taking care of his business with that Elder Lin but Tang Li Xue still sleptfortably and soundly without any worry since she always remembers that she had [Substitute Doll] now.
Even if someone sneakily attacking her when she was sleeping, she would not instantly die.
¡..
¡
.
The next morning, Tang Li Xue opened up her eyes groggily.
Since yesterday, she already decided to wake up very early today and heading out to the fake dragon fortress before anyone.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she still did not find Xiao Hei sleeping beside her this morning.
''Sigh¡ So he is pulling another all-nighter yesterday?! That old bast*rd Lin must be really too tired to live since he dare to toying with This Queen''s concubine! This Queen will surely find that Old Lin and teach him a lesson he will never forget after This Queen finish with all of her business today!''
While she keep cursing Elder Lin in her mind, Tang Li Xue activated her [Stealth] and walked out of Xiao Hei''s room then heading toward her lizard mommy.
The chatterbox lizard was very happy when it saw Tang Li Xue entered its ce again but it still tried to put its act as an old wise dragon in front of her.
"Hahaha... Cough¡ Cough¡ Littless, why are youing back here again? Do you need to ask something from me? Come on, just ask right away, don''t be shy, don''t be afraid, I will never bite you¡ Come to think of it, actually, I only bite human hahaha¡"
Tang Li Xue''s expression darkened in an instant when she heard what this fake dragon talking about.
''And here I am trying to form my dantian like a human in front of you¡ Will it bite me on the spot if it manages to find out what I am doing? Should I think about it more and change to another ce? What a headache¡''
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead with her tiny little paw.
''Whatever, I will try to exin everything first to this fake dragon! It may be wiser to tell it that I want to evolve rather than form my dantian though¡ Since this should be the weirdest urrence since I form my dantian before evolving into a spirit beast and I don''t even want to deal with this chatterbox''s questioningter on!''
Tang Li Xue pointed her finger toward herself after that she raised her two front paws above her shoulders like a bodybuilder showing their muscle then she pointed to the fake dragon and pointed back to herself in the end.
''I¡ want to evolve¡ you¡help to protect me!''
"Eh¡ Eh¡ Eh¡ I understand now! Hahahaha¡ Littless, you really have a big ambition, didn''t you? I know you have it in you!" The fake dragonughed heartily in delight made Tang Li Xue wondering what the hell was this fake dragon talking about.
Tang Li Xue stared at the fake dragon full of doubt in her eyes.
"Hey¡ Hey¡ Hey¡ What kind of stare is that?! Of course, I understand it! You must be asked me to train you to be stronger, right?! You must be wanted to be stronger so you could pinch all of those filthy humans to death between your fingers like an ant, right?! Hahahaha¡ I know that is what you want!"
Tang Li Xue facepalmed while thinking: ''Sigh¡ It looks like I will need A LOT more time to exin it all to this fake dragon¡''
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue was really sad that Xiao Hei did note back tonight to cook her roasted meat for her dinner but at least he still has his conscience and ordered one of his subordinates to feed her.
Feng San (Xiao Hei''s new aide) brought a few mice that still alive and tried to feed it to Tang Li Xue.
''Are you stupid?! Who can eat that kind of filthy things! Bring it far away from me!''
Tang Li Xue pped Feng San''s hand that held the mouse in front of her mouth then pointed at a ''roasted meat on the te'' picture on the wall.
This ''roasted meat on the te'' picture that pasted on the wall was actually used as Tang Li Xue''s and Xiao Hei''s code. Each time Tang Li Xue felt hungry she woulde to Xiao Hei then pointed at the picture so Xiao Hei could make her favorite roasted meat for her.
Feng San''s wooden face brightened slightly as if he understands something then he nodded to Tang Li Xue then went back to the kitchen.
After a few seconds, Feng San came back and put a few mice ON THE TOP OF PLATE in front of Tang Li Xue.
''You¡ Oh My God, You are really stupid! Can you just bring the roasted pork from the kitchen to here?!''
Tang Li Xue angrily flipped the te full of mice then she jumped toward the picture and pointed exactly at ''the roasted meat'' part on the picture with her tiny furry paw!
Feng San pped his own forehead looking as if he realized how stupid he was before then nodded to Tang Li Xue with solemn expression like saying ''I understand! This time I will not take the wrong one!''
''Good! Now go and take a te full of roasted meat for me from the kitchen!''
Tang Li Xue waved her tiny paw ordering Feng San to be hurry.
This time Feng San took more time, almost one hour beforeing back and Tang Li Xue pretty sure that Feng San really get it right this time and ordered the chef in the kitchen to roast fresh pork or beef meat for her.
Tang Li Xue was already very starving when Feng San went back toward her room with a te of roasted meat in his hand.
But Tang Li Xue spurted several liters of her blood out as soon as she saw what Feng San brought for her.
''I only asked you to bring me delicious roasted pork or beef meat! NOT THE ROASTED MICE ON THE PLATE!''
''Now I understand why Xiao Hei picked that traitor to be his aide before¡ So it was because only that one is smart enough!''
Chapter 32 - 32: Forming Dantian!
Chapter 32 - 32: Forming Dantian!
After Tang Li Xue wasted a lot and I mean a really lot of effort to exin everything using her gesture to the fake dragon; atst, the fake dragon got some gist about what Tang Li Xue want it to do.
"Ohhh¡ I get it! So you want me to protect you while you are trying to¡ do something, right?" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said to confirm its guess.
Tang Li Xue was still panting heavily and she also too exhausted to continue to exin it over, again and again, like before so she decided to nod her head this time. At least, this fake dragon guessed 50% of what Tang Li Xue''s exined correctly this time.
"That''s simple! Come closer to me, Little Lass¡ All of these chains restricted my movement but I can still protect you properly as long as you are within my range of movement!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said seriously while waving its giant w signaled Tang Li Xue toe closer to it.
Tang Li Xue approached the fake dragon''s chest and the fake dragon opened its big mouth full of sharp fangs toward her. If Tang Li Xue did not really trust her lizard mommy, she would piss on her pants out of fear since its behavior right now was like it wanted to eat Tang Li Xue alive.
The fake dragon spurted out golden mes from its giant mouth toward Tang Li Xue. Tang Li Xue panicked for a moment and her instinct told her to dodge it but she held down that urge to dodge.
The fake dragon''s golden mes swirled around Tang Li Xue and made a golden me wall then in a few seconds, the golden mes make aplete golden barrier that enveloped Tang Li Xue along with her surroundings.
"This is my [Resilient me Barrier], it could even hold a few full-powered hits from the peak Core Formation Stage Cultivator! Sigh¡ Unfortunately, all of these ck chains sucked all of my vitality energies dry if not, I can even make the stronger version of this [Resilient me Barrier] that could even hold against the Nascent Soul Cultivator''s strike! Whatever¡ Now you can do your things, Little Lass!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard sighed whileined.
Tang Li Xue nodded to the fake dragon then she opened her evolution list from the system.
[Are you sure you want to choose to form your dantian now? Yes/No]
''Sigh¡ I really¡ really hope that this time the itchiness would be lighter or no itchiness at all would be the best sincee on¡ I am not evolving this time, right? Ok then¡ BRING IT ON! YES!''
[Yes]
The surrounding spiritual energy suddenly churning violently as Tang Li Xue''s body sucking all of the spiritual energy greedily.
''Oh no! I really have a bad feeling about this! This¡ This looks bad! Really really bad!''
All of those spiritual energies actually passed all of her skins and bones then started to .u.mte inside her stomach, below her navel.
Tang Li Xue''s inside began to undergo earth-shaking transformation!
All the surrounding spiritual energy was flowing non-stop to Tang Li Xue while Tang Li Xue''s energy suction power keep magnifying many folds and even now it still keeps increasing at incredible speed.
In a few seconds, the energy around this small fortress thinned out greatly but Tang Li Xue''s energy suction power area keep going wider and wider until it covered the entire farm and it still keeps getting wider.
Tang Li Xue''s condition right now was like a giant whirlpool in the middle of the ocean assuming that the spiritual energy was the ocean water and this Asura Demon Sect was the ocean.
"THE HELL! What this tiny littless trying to do?! Don''t tell me she wants to evolve? But this kind of disturbance is definitely not on the scale of ''the savage beast evolves to the demonic beast! This is more like a demonic beast that trying to evolve into a spirit beast! Fortunately, she chose to do it here with me protecting her and covering her trace if not, even that Mo brat probably cannot protect her!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard widened its eyes in surprise.
The massive amount of spiritual energy that entered Tang Li Xue''s body began to change her internal organ, other forming a new dantian for her below her navel, the spiritual energy also creates new blood vessels, heavenly meridians, acupoints, and many other more.
''PAIN!UUUUUUAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH! VERY PAINFUL! DAMN IT! But at least it is much better than that unbearable itchiness!''
Tang Li Xue''s fox face reddened like a tomato, actually, not only her face but her entire body started to turn red and it even started to let out some steam.
Every single pore in Tang Li Xue''s body started to open up and her blood started to push out from her body through her pores like her sweat.
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes and gritted her fangs harder to withstand the unbearable paining from the transformation inside her body.
The rich spiritual energy in the Asura Demon Sect thinned out too quickly that it makes several important figures in the sect rmed. Even the spiritual energy from the sect surroundings became more and more unstable, that it began to trigger the weather anomaly.
The unimaginable amount of spiritual energy inside Tang Li Xue also circted faster and faster made the unbearable pain that Tang Li Xue''s withstood increased once again to another level.
In the end, Tang Li Xue cannot hold it anymore as her consciousness fading away and her vision turned dark.
She could only think one thing before she passed out.
''Ahhh¡ I really make a huge mistake today! I should increase my toughness stats as many as possible to increase my pain tolerance¡''
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her eyes when she regained her consciousness. She started to check her body immediately but she was really disappointed when she did not find any change with her body. She only finds her own red blood that stuck on her fur.
''Sigh¡ I really hope too much before¡ I thought I can get my human form earlier when I form this dantian¡ Let''s check my status first then!''

''Nothing changed at all! What a disappointment! Sigh¡ But I get 30 free stats point and 6 skill points now. Well, not bad then! At least I will get more free stats point and skill points each time I level up now.''
"Little Lass, are you okay? I thought you will level up straight into a spirit beast with the massive disturbance you make! But look at you now¡ You¡ do not change at all?! So strange! Where have all of those spiritual energies gone after you absorbed them all?" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard asked Tang Li Xue curiously.
Tang Li Xue was toozy and exhausted to exin everything to the fake dragon so she only raised her shoulder and shrugged.
''I don''t know too!''
However, her beaming expression betrayed what she said.
Since Tang Li Xue did not want to tell the fake dragon what happened to her, the fake dragon also did not force her to tell it. Everyone has their own secret and the fake dragon that already lives for ten thousand years knew it more than anyone.
But the fake dragon with its usual mommy tendencies gave long reminders, caution, and advice over and over again to Tang Li Xue then began to preaching on how bad humans were and what would happen to her if she told any human about this things.
After the sky turned dark, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard finally let Tang Li Xue go back.
''Bwahahahahaha¡ my form has not changed at all but no problem! On the contrary, this is also good since no one will know that what happened today was actually because of me! AND THE MOST EXCITING NEWS IS I FINALLY CAN CULTIVATE LIKE IN WUXIA NOVEL AND AWAKEN MY MARTIAL SOUL! I wonder what my martial soul would be like?!''
Chapter 33 - 33: Deity Coins True Function!
Chapter 33 - 33: Deity Coins'' True Function!
When night came, Tang Li Xue hurried back to Xiao Hei''s room and sat on the top of the bed.
She immediately checked on how to awaken her martial soul but disappointed soon when she found out that she must reach the peak of Body Tempering Stage first before she can awaken her martial soul.
The reason was simple. Anyone needs a strong body to awaken their martial souls since the strong body would act as the martial soul vessel.
But Tang Li Xue did not mind it that much since she would definitely awaken it sooner orter. She quickly switched her interest to the item that could only be used when she has her own dantian like now, [Cultivation Voucher]!
''Now I can use this cultivation voucher! I wonder what its function actually for?! Is it to increase my cultivation in an instant? Hohoho... Then I would dly try to use it right away!''
[Cultivation Voucher has been activated! You can choose any cultivation/martial art manual you want!]
Tang Li Xue became a bit disappointed when she heard that the [Cultivation Voucher]''s function was only to trade it with one cultivation/martial art manual from the system.
''Meh... Better than nothing I guess¡ Let''s see what this system has in stock!''
[Dragon Soaring Spearmanship]
[Southern Cross Sword Style]
[Base Cultivation Secret]
''WOW! Not bad at all! I thought it would sucker manual like iron shirt, basic-swordsmanship, or something like that! As This Queen expected from the almighty system!'' Tang Li Xue''s mood turned more cheerful as she browsed through the cultivation/martial art manual catalog.
[Indestructible Vajra Body Method]
[Lightning-Chasing Step]
[Burning Sun Sword Skill]
[1st chapter of 72 Earthly Transformations]
''?????!!!!!!!!''
''Oh My God! Uncle Sun 72 Earthly Transformations! Sssssshhhhhh¡ Calm down, Li Tang Xue¡ Err¡ Tang Li Xue, it''s only the first chapter and I still have the [Premium Cultivation Voucher] forter use!''
''And it would be futile if I trade it now but I can''t cultivate it right away! It will only be collecting dust in my inventory system! The best choice should be a lowest-rank manual but I can cultivate it right now to quickly raise my current strength!''
Tang Li Xue quickly calmed herself down and suppressed her greed then continues to look at the catalog.
[Body Tempering Stage Secret]
''Uuuurrrggghhh¡ Soundsaaameeee! But only this manual that fit with my current situation! Sigh¡ look at this [Pangu Golden Body], [Guanyin Pure Heart Sutra], [Dragon Emperor''s Water Controlling Method]¡ All of them sound so cool and OP but here I am choosing the worst one!''
Tang Li Xue even considered stealing the Body Tempering Stage Manual from Martial Repository but that ce was different from the public ce like the farm. Such an important ce like Martial Repository should have many strong elder level people that guarding it.
Then Tang Li Xue also considered asking Xiao Hei for help but thanks to her lizard mommy that warned her again and again that all humans were extremely vicious so she must always extremely cautious toward all humans and asking human cultivation manual to Xiao Hei at the time like this would only make him suspicious toward her.
In the end, Tang Li Xue rejected both of those ideas and steeled her resolve to choose [Body Tempering Stage Secret] manual from the system.
[Are you sure you want to choose the Body Tempering Stage Secret manual? Yes/No]
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs and chose ''Yes''!
BAAANG~~!
In an instant, her mind felt like exploding when all the information about the Body Tempering Stage Secret manual rushed into her brain.
This kind of knowledge injection was actually the most efficient way to transfer any manual since anyone will instantly remember everything about it in their mind and they would never forget it again unless someone powerful erasing their mindpletely.
''Ok¡ Let''s see what this manual all about is?!.......... Connecting the energy between heaven and earth¡ Wait¡ wait¡ with what? USB cable? Wire cable?''
''Store the energy of heaven and earth in the body...¡ Do you think my body is a battery or something?! How the hell my body can store the energy?!''
''Use the energy of heaven and earth to temper all the body parts from inside out...¡.. Do you think my body made from iron or steel?! Temper?! With energy?! How?! You must be tempering your head with a heavy hammer first before writing this kind of manual!''
Tang Li Xue felt an incredible urge to smash this manual writer''s head so badly. She already wasted a precious [Cultivation Voucher] but now she can''t even understand even a thing from this manual!
[Do you want toprehend Body Tempering Stage Secret manual with cost 30 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
''??????!!!!!!''
''This¡ So this is how to use the Deity Coins?! Let''s try it then¡ I have more than 2,000 Deity Coins anyway! YES!''
When Tang Li Xue chose ''Yes'' and spent her 30 Deity Coins, it was as if all the fog that covered [Body Tempering Stage Secret] manual in her mind instantly cleared and she could understand all of it without anything feels amiss.
''What a magical feeling! It feels as if I already learned all this [Body Tempering Stage Secret] before and now I only need to repeat all the process once again!''
Tang Li Xue breathes instantly be heavy and she immediately dashed to the nearby bookshelf inside Xiao Hei''s room.
She took one book randomly and opened it up. Like usual, she cannot read anything since all books were not written in English or Chinese but in Immortal World''snguage.
Moreover, all the words like some symbol that written in the cursive font. Tang Li Xue thought in her mind that she wanted to learn thisnguage.
[Do you want toprehend Lightwind Continent''s Language with cost 10 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
''YES!''
Once again, Tang Li Xue felt an odd feeling washed her mind but it was different from when she received [Body Tempering Stage Secret], she felt reallyfortable now when the fog inside her mind cleared up.
Tang Li Xue looked at the book content again and now she could read all of it like it was her firstnguage that she ever learned.
''Oh My God! This cheating learning ability is the one I always dreaming of! Awesome! If I got this cheating learning ability in my previous life all the academicians would kneel before my learning speed!''
Tang Li Xue was really excited when she found out about this Deity Coins'' true function and she wanted to take another book from the bookshelf to learn it but before she could do that¡
BAAAAAM~~!
The room''s door absurdly opened and Xiao Hei entered the room and he was shouldered by his two subordinates Feng Er (Second Wind) and Feng San (Third Wind). (Feng Yi = First Wind)
These two people, Feng Er and Feng San were the same as Feng Yi, they were the part of Xiao Hei''s personal guard that he personally trained. However, unlike Feng Yi that was already training with Xiao Hei since little like his own brother, these two only trained by Xiao Hei a few years ago.
But that was not important right now because the scene in front of Tang Li Xue right now was truly made her heart screaming in panic and fright.
Xiao Hei''s chest cave in like something powerful hit him from his front before, almost all of his internal organs inside his chest should be crushed, and he even bleeding from his seven aperture.
''What¡what has exactly happened to Xiao Hei?! Her Xiao Hei should be very strong! How could he be like this?!''
Chapter 34 - 34: Tang Li Xue’s Rage!
Chapter 34 - 34: Tang Li Xue¡¯s Rage!
Feng Er and Feng San ced Xiao Hei on his bed then they took medicine storage box from the nearby cupboard. They took several pills and feed it all to Xiao Hei that still lied down limpidly on the bed.
However, before Xiao Hei could gulp all the pills down, he puked all of it out along with a huge amount of blood to the ground beside the bed.
Tang Li Xue was really worried that Xiao Hei could not hold on himself any longer so she quickly ran to Feng San and pull a [Recovery Pill] out from her system inventory.
She climbed into the top of the bed but cannote closer to Xiao Hei since Feng Er and Feng San surrounded him still trying hard to stabilize Xiao Hei''s condition.
Tang Li Xue jumped to Feng San''s shoulder this time and tried to give the [Recovery Pill] to Feng San so he could make Xiao Hei ate it.
But Tang Li Xue found out something incredible instead¡
"Xiao Bai, please do not disturb us now! Our master is in critical condition! So please go y alone at the corner of the room for now!" Feng San said to Tang LI Xue but his voice has a hint of anxiousness and annoyance.
Tang Li Xue dumbfounded and thought: ''Is this person too dumb to look at what I am holding or¡ I will think about itter! I must feed this [Recovery Pill] to Xiao Hei right away now!''
Tang Li Xue activated five of her perfect infiltration skill [Stealth], [Odorless], [Silencer], [Trail Cover], andstly her [Erasing Presence]. She turnedpletely invisible and undetectable then she jumped beside Xiao Hei that still lied down on the bed.
Feng Er and Feng San were too upied with Xiao Hei''s critical condition now so they did not realize that Tang Li Xue''s presencepletely disappears from the room in that instant.
Feng San opened Xiao Hei''s mouth once again to feed him the medicine pills from the medicine storage box once again and Tang Li Xue took that chance to feed Xiao Hei her potent [Recovery Pill].
Now Xiao Hei already ate the [Recovery Pill] from her, she did not need to worry about him anymore. As long as Xiao Hei did not stop breathing, he would bepletely recovered when the morning came.
Just in a few seconds after eating [Recovery Pill], its efficacy already proved by itself. Xiao Hei stopped cough and the blood that keep flowing from his mouth and his other apertures also stopped.
Xiao Hei''s face was pale like a corpse before but now it began to regain its rosiness bit by bit. His chest that caves in also started to restore very slowly but it makes sense though since the pills need to regenerate all of his internal organs that already crushed and mend all of his bones in his chest.
Feng Er and Feng San sighed in relief when they saw Xiao Hei''s condition already stabilized and he already started to recover.
Tang Li Xue jumped and pped the back of Feng San''s head with her tiny furry paw. When Feng San''s attention shifted toward her, she started to point at Xiao Hei and pointed to herself.
''What happened to him? Exin it to me?!''
Feng San already interacted with Tang Li Xue several times before like giving her food or drink when his master was too busy to take care of her and he understands that Tang Li Xue was his master favorite pet and she also very smart. It also made sense if she worried about him and asked what happen about her master.
Feng San was hesitatingly looking at Xiao Hei then to Tang Li Xue back and forth. In the end, he was afraid that Tang Li Xue would make a fuss about it then throw a tantrum so he yields and told her all about it.
While Feng San exined everything, Tang Li Xue listened carefully but she also experimented with something in front of him.
Tang Li Xue took out several items from the system''s inventory like [Stamina Pill], [Recovery Pill], and [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] then put it in front of Feng San''s eyes.
At first, Tang Li Xue was really afraid that doing this would expose her system but she already 70-80% sure so she still gritted her teeth and decided to try it in the end.
And there it is... Feng San did not find anything strange and staring at Tang Li Xue as usual!
''All the items from the system is invisible from all the people other than me?! As I expected from my OP system!''
Another amazing feature from the system that Tang Li Xue''s manage to discover, if it was another time, she would giggling and dancing happily when she discovers it.
But right now she did not have any mood to celebrate or feel happy about it since Feng San''s story made Tang Li Xue''s very very angry.
In short, Xiao Hei went to Elder Lin''s ce again today to negotiate but he did not only find Elder Lin''s alone but also his fatty uncle there.
Xiao Hei asked Elder Lin some time for a private discussion about resource distribution but Elder Lin said that the fatty uncle was his best friend and the fatty uncle also insist on listening to their discussion saying that they do not need to mind him.
In the end, Xiao Hei forced to discuss resource distribution with Elder Lin in front of his fatty uncle. Not because his fatty uncle forced him but because Xiao Hei''s faction was in dire need of cultivation resource since their stock almost exhausted.
With that bald fatty sat so near and protecting him, Elder Lin became even more daring than before and he keeps greedily pressuring Xiao Hei for more made Xiao Hei fuming with rage.
Elder Lin even said something like ''What you don''t like it? I never force you to give all your ingredients and materials to me...'', he even said ''If you don''t like it then scram! Ask another alchemist to concoct your pills!''
As the person that held the highest authority in this Asura Demon Sect, the ''Patriarch'', how could Xiao Hei not get angry in front of Elder Lin''s n.a.k.e.d provocation?!
Xiao Hei moved to p Elder Lin''s face but with his fatty uncle sat closely beside Elder Lin how could he (fatty uncle) let Xiao Hei do that to his people!
That bald fatty uncle defended Elder Lin while Xiao Hei wanted to teach Elder Lin a lesson so the two of them fought fiercely!
But their cultivation was so far apart, Xiao Hei only at Foundation Establishment Stage when his fatty uncle already at the peak of Core Formation Stage!
The fatty uncle''s attack was very vicious and he really intended to kill Xiao Hei''s for real but as the hailed genius, Xiao Hei would not lose so easily, he even manages tost for several tens of moves from his uncle lethal attacks before getting seriously injured.
If not for Xiao Hei''s grandfather that came so timely to stop their fight, Xiao Hei would already reunite with his long-dead father inherworld now.
''BLOODY HELL! THAT DAMN BAST*RD! How dare he injuring This Queen''s favorite concubine?! REALLY LOOKING FOR DEAD!''
Tang Li Xue''s eyes squinted dangerously as the cold aura that she emitted from her small body made even Feng San shuddered in shock.
''This intense cold aura and cruel expression... Why do I feel this cold aura so familiar? Oh yeah! It''s almost the same as the young patriarch!'' Feng San thought as he slowly withdraws himself to the corner of the room out of fear.
''SO SCARY! Even the young patriarch''s pet has the same demeanor as him! So that''s why young patriarch really treasured this fox!'' Feng San and Feng Er thought at the same time.
But Tang Li Xue did not have any time to spare for the two of them as her brain already started to think about how to take revenge for her Xiao Hei.
''Before hitting the dog, you must look at its owner first! Since you dare to hurt This Queen''s future concubine then This Queen would teach you an unforgettable lesson on what is ''do not want to live but cannot die'' means?!''
Chapter 35 - 35: Planning Carefully Step by Step!
Chapter 35 - 35: nning Carefully Step by Step!
Feng Er and Feng San were watching over Xiao Hei''s condition for the entire night. They even constantly checked his condition for every ten minutes or so but they were stunned silly by Xiao Hei''s recovery each time they checked him.
"Is... Is this the legendary Divine Pills that can restore any wounds in a few hours?! Young Patriarch is really an amazing person! He can even get his hands on this kind of divine medicine!" Feng San held the pill''s bottle that he gave to Xiao Hei like holding precious jade and stared at it full of amazement before carefully put it back to the medicine storage box.
Tang Li Xue snorted in disdain when she saw how Feng San treats that worthless medicine like a peerless treasure. But she quickly forgets about it and started to n her next moves.
''Tsk... I am still so angry with that bald fatty and old Lin! Don''t worry Xiao Hei! A gentleman said that ten years is not toote to take revenge but This Queen is a woman, not a gentleman so for This Queen, ten years is too long! This Queen will promise to take revenge for you within one week!''
Ding!
[Quest: (Avenger) Enter Elder Bai''s room and teach him a lesson that he will never forget for his entire life!]
[Difficulty: Hard]
[Requirement: High Infiltration Skills!]
[Reward: Level +3(+1), Stat Point +90(+23), Skill Point +18(+5), 150(+38) Deity Coins]
[Time Remaining: 167:59:46]
''......System... It is actually only a figure speech! You know... You don''t need to take it too seriously... really...''
Tang Li Xue was almost spurting out several litters of blood from her mouth when she saw another ''Hard'' difficulty quest appear once again in her system after she finished one yesterday.
''Sigh... Whatever... Since it''s true that I really want to take revenge for Xiao Hei...''
Then which one of them she should target first? Xiao Hei''s fatty uncle? Nah, he was too cunning and strong for now.
Tang Li Xue decided her first target would be that ''Elder Lin'' immediately. He was an alchemist so his martial arts should be suck so badly since he was always cooping in his room to concoct pills every day.
This ''Elder Lin'' also the main source of her Xiao Hei''s resource problem, he was clearly an Asura Demon Sect''s alchemist but he dares to refuse the patriarch''s order and even rebuked him openly in front of his subordinates.
However, that fatty uncle should also assign many strong people to protect that Elder Lin secretly since Elder Lin was an important asset for the fatty uncle now. Moreover, there should be also countless traps ced at Elder Lin''s ce to prevent any intruders.
In Tang Li Xue''s current state, it was almost impossible for her to sessfully entering the room where Elder Lin was unnoticed.
But that did not mean that Tang Li Xue has no other way to enter it!
[Ethereal Form]!
''If I can get [Ethereal Form] divine ability, I definitely can enter Elder Lin''s room!''
Elder Lin was at Formation Establishment Stage so Tang Li Xue cannot defeat him yet... however, she also did not have any intention to kill him with her own hands because she has a far better n to make Elder Lin suffer.
But even if Tang Li Xue managed to learn [Ethereal Form] divine ability soon, she also would have a new problem crop up... Stamina!
Tang Li Xue could only activate all 5 of her infiltrations for two minutes more or less... if she activated [Ethereal Form]ter, how long her current feeble stamina could hold on?
One minute? Thirty Seconds? Or maybe even less?!
So Tang Li Xue''s aim right now was to enhance her stamina!
''I have 38 Skill Points now... If I manage to push 4 of my infiltration skills to ''mastered'' level with my level 2 [Stealth] I only need 21 Skill Points tobine them into [Ethereal Form]. I still have 17 Skill Points left, enough for me to buy [Greater Stamina], [Greater Defense], and [Greater Health] thenbine them into [Innate: Toughness]! BUY ALL ALL 3!''
[You have gained Greater Stamina ability!]
[You have gained Greater Defense ability!]
[You have gained Greater Health ability!]
[Greater Stamina (Lv1), Greater Defense (Lv1), Greater Health (Lv1) can bebined into Divine Ability[Innate: Toughness] with cost 10 Skill Points. Do you want tobine them now?]
''YES!''
[You have gained Divine Ability (Innate: Toughness)]
[Innate: Toughness]: the effect of Toughness status will be tripled.
''Uuuurrrgghhh... With this, all my Skill Points saving would be depleted... but eehhh... Wait a minute... That Lin bast*rd is a renowned alchemist so he should have many pills and valuable rare herbs! If I manage to take all of those when I entering his room... Uwehehehehe...''
Thus Tang Li Xue''s goal added one more other than avenge her Xiao Hei, she also wanted to steal all Elder Lin''s resources!
Tang Li Xue decided to experiment on how long she could activate her 5 infiltration skills at once now while waiting for Xiao Hei to regain his consciousness.
The result of the experiment even surprised Tang Li Xue herself, she thought with her new divine ability [Innate: Toughness] that tripled her toughness status it means she could activate it for six minutes but she realized that she was wrong.
She could actually activate it for almost an hour nonstop!
With this Tang Li Xue''s stamina problem already solved and she only needs to grind her infiltration skills to ''mastered'' level thenbine it into [Ethereal Form]!
.....
...
.
The next morning, Xiao Hei regained his consciousness and slowly opened his eyes.
Xiao Hei slowly stood up while Feng San and Feng Er quickly went to his side and quickly held his hands to help him but Xiao Hei stopped them.
Xiao Hei really astonished as he rubbed his chest that got hit by his uncle yesterday but he did not feel any hurt at all. It was almost like yesterday''s defeat was just a dream but when he looked at Feng San and Feng Er worried expression, he finally confirmed that he really was defeated, critically wounded, and almost been killed yesterday.
Then Xiao Hei remembered that the same things already happened before in the Moonlight Forest.
He also almost died before in Moonlight Forest but somehow he recoveredpletely the next day.
Xiao Hei ignored his own condition and his two subordinates then went crazy searching for something with a panicked expression on his face.
The noisy sound awoke Tang Li Xue that fell asleep on the bench an hour ago.
''What happens, Xiao Hei? What are you searching for so early this morning?''
Xiao Hei sighed in relief like his heart has been freed from a huge burden when he saw Tang Li Xue was alright in front of him.
But when Xiao Hei saw many of Tang Li Xue''s dried blood sticking on her fur then he remembered that in Moonlight Forest before Tang Li Xue also has some dried blood sticking on her fur when they first met.
In that instant, Xiao Hei felt extremely touched as his heart tightened and painful when he saw Tang Li Xue''s dried blood.
Xiao Hei immediately concluded that it was impossible for such a powerful healing power to not have any repercussions or bacsh to the user.
Xiao Hei embraced Tang Li Xue and gently pet her while saying: "Silly, Xiao Bai¡ There is no need for you to do so much for me! Look at how much you bleed for me!"
Tang Li Xue puzzled at first but she immediately got it when she heard Xiao Hei''s words.
''Eeeerrrr¡ Actually, this blood is not because of you but because I formed my dantian before¡ Whatever just gives me more extrarge roasted meats from now on uwehehehe¡''
"But¡ I won''t say thanks to you!" Xiao Hei said whileughing after checking that she was alright and healthy like usual.
''Oiiii! Are you kidding with me? At least you need to thank me for my limited potent [Recovery Pill]?!''
"Because between family members, there is no need to say any thank you!" Xiao Hei gently kissed Tang Li Xue''s furry forehead.
Chapter 36 - 36: Stalking Others!
Chapter 36 - 36: Stalking Others!
After ying around with Tang Li Xue for a while then cooked some delicious roasted meats for her, Xiao Hei took closed-door cultivation training in the secret room.
It looks like ''the fastest way for the cultivators to improve themselves was through life and death experience'' was not a lie since Xiao Hei''s improved like aet each time he recovered from critical wounds such as now or in the Moonlight Forest before.
Tang Li Xue also didn''t want to waste her time to dilly-dally around so she went around training all her infiltration skill so it could reach mastered level sooner.
But when she went patrolling around Xiao Hei''s courtyard randomly, she noticed one of Xiao Hei''s people acted rather suspiciously.
Yes, he was one of the people that looking after Xiao Hei''sst night, Feng Er!
Tang Li Xue frowned as she quickly decided to follow that Feng Er while still she still in her stealth mode and all of her infiltration skills turned on!
She can activate all of her infiltration skills including [Stealth] continuously for almost one hour now anyway so she did not need to be so cheap and select a few of her infiltration skills to activate it along with [Stealth] so careful to conserve her stamina like before.
That Feng Er was also very cautious, he checked his surroundings several times to ascertain that no one following him then began to quicken his step but no matter how careful he was, he would never realize that there was an invisible and untraceable fox following behind him.
''How suspicious?! Is he following Xiao Hei''s order to deliver a secret message now or he also¡ Whatever, I will follow him for now! I will find out the answer in the end anyway!''
However, this Feng Er was not only clever but also very careful and slippery! He even made several turns at every corner almost make Tang Li Xue lost his track.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in anger. She began to reconsider whether she should keep follow Feng Er or give up since this guy was so slippery! She would probably lose him sooner orter if it continues like this!
''Follow him at all cost! How could I give up half-way like this?!''
Tang Li Xue opened her skill list window and bought several useful skills to track Feng Er''s movement.
[You have gained [Enhanced Sense of Sight ability!]
[You have gained Enhanced Sense of Smell ability!]
[You have gained Enhanced Sense of Hearing ability!]
With [Enhanced Sense of Smell], Tang Li Xue''s nose was much sharper than a dog now! Tracking Feng Er with his scent that still lingering on the air was a piece of cake for her now!
[Enhanced Sense of Hearing] made Tang Li Xue''s fox ear so sharp that she could easily hear Feng Er''s almost inaudible step sound!
Not to say [Enhanced Sense of Sight] made Tang Li Xue could see each of that Feng Er''s movement so clearly!
With all of these new skills, Tang Li Xue could easily find Feng Er''s track and silently follow him from distance!
However, Tang Li Xue once again amazed with this Feng Er''s cautiousness, he even sometimes stopped at the crossing and hide behind somerge building several times while holding a poisonous dagger in his hand ready to kill any of his stalkers if he found any of it.
In fact, if Tang Li Xue did not have all her infiltration skills plus her [Stealth] skill, she would already be discovered by this Feng Er.
Fortunately, each time Tang Li Xue caught up with Feng Er, he could not see her and find any of her traces so he gradually let his guard down.
With her [Enhanced Sense of Sight], Tang Li Xue managed to see Feng Er gave a tiny slip of paper to the patrolling guard that went out from the restroom secretly when they passed by each other then the two of them heading toward different directions without saying anything like they don''t know each other at all.
''The hell! Now which one I should follow? The guard or that Feng Er?''
After a moment, Tang Li Xue decided to follow the guard instead now! She really wanted to know, where that tiny slip of paper would end up in the end?!
Once again Tang Li Xue embarked on her journey to stalking people!
From Feng Er to the guard¡
From the guard to the disciple that passing by¡
From that disciple to the servant that sweeping the floor¡
''What the hell is this?! This is more like the beggar sect informationwork in novel or movie, right?!''
After that servant finished sweeping the floor, he was heading to the food storage then brings a cart of food ingredients to the kitchen.
Tang Li Xue that always stood near that servant realized that he inserted that tiny slip of paper inside one of the cabbages before throwing it inside the cart.
In the kitchen where all of the food ingredients will be made into proper food to eat, Tang Li Xue once again keep looking after that cabbage with that tiny slip of paper inside it.
''Should I take that piece of paper and gave it to Xiao Hei as evidence? No¡ It will only alert the mastermind if it went missing suddenly! It''s better if I see it first where this piece of paper will reach in the end¡ after that¡ Well, I will think itter after that¡''
When cutting all the cabbages one by one, the chef silently took out the tiny slip of paper and hid it in his sleeve. In the end, after he finished preparing all the dishes, he took out a pair of chopsticks and then POP¡
The chef pulled one chopstick in two and stuffed tiny slip of paper in the tiny hole inside the chopstick before he joined it back into one like before.
''YOUR MOM! So the chopstick even has this kind of function?! To hide the secret message?!''
Tang Li Xue did not know that this tiny hole inside the chopstick could even be filled with deadly poison! When someone using that chopstick, the deadly poison inside would be secretly expelled out from the tip of the chopstick to the food that it touched!
Imagine if all the foods already confirmed clean without any poison then which people will confirm their chopstick be free from the poison too? None!
But this small trick would be useless for the people like Xiao Hei that already knew all kinds of these small tricks since little from his father and grandfather.
Unfortunately, no one could probably guess that this kind of chopstick could be used to deliver secret letters like this too!
Several servants took all the dishes that the chef already prepared with several trays and they went out of the kitchen.
Tang Li Xue followed that several servants silently behind them with all of her infiltration skills plus her [Stealth] continuously activated.
Until all of the servants entered a big courtyard with a pool full of golden carps and adorned with beautiful nts.
Tang Li Xue wanted to follow them and enter too but her instinct screaming her to stop so she instinctively stopped while looking at the gate with her sight that already enhanced with [Enhanced Sense of Sight] ability.
Tang Li Xue''s body trembled slightly as she felt her cold sweat began to leak out from her forehead when she read the namete above the entrance of therge house.
MO CHONGLIN RESIDENCE
''DAMN! Isn''t this that bald fatty''s house?! Then that Feng Er is¡ ANOTHER TRAITOR!''
Chapter 37 - 37: [Ethereal Form]!
Chapter 37 - 37: [Ethereal Form]!
BAAAAAANG~~!
The table shattered into countless tiny powder under Mo Chonglin''s palm along with all the tes and dishes on the top of that table.
"He ate the divine pills and recovered in one night!"
Dammit! I already thought that wound would not be enough to kill him but at the very least it should be enough to hinder his cultivation for a few years!"
Who knows that¡ sigh¡ Divine Pills! And he even makes a breakthrough because of it now! Why¡ why he always so lucky?!"
"It''s as if God always bless and protect him from behind! It was also the same as before when he headed into that Moonlight Forest! He should be dead in there but he managed toe back unscathed! Why is God never fair with me?!" Mo Chonglin gnashed his teeth in anger and frustration.
He kept walking back and forth in his room and mumbling to himself in anxiety.
Unfortunately, he would never know that his nephew actually was not protected by any God but by a female fox behind his back.
¡.
¡
.
While Mo Chonglin was still fuming in rage in his room, Tang Li Xue decided to walk back into Xiao Hei''s courtyard instead of staying near that fatty uncle''s house.
''Should I tell Xiao Hei about it? But¡ How? Sigh¡ Is this how the mermaid in the story feeling when she cannot talk to her prince? Wait a minute! That is wrong! Xiao Hei is my concubine, not my prince!''
''Well¡ Let''s put it aside for now. Since I need to level up all of my infiltration skills to mastered level then I just need to stalk a few people for the next few days! Who knows that I will find several other spies or traitors and I can tell Xiao Hei all about them at onceter!''
So in the next few days, Tang Li Xue trained all of her infiltration skills along with her [Stealth] ability to stalk a few people that close to Xiao Hei.
And like her guess before, there were several other spies and traitors that she managed to find!
Fortunately, that Feng San was still loyal to Xiao Hei. Tang Li Xue still did not catch him doing anything suspicious in these few days and along with his low IQ, Tang Li Xue concluded that this Feng San was not smart enough to betray Xiao Hei.
[Odorless has increased to Mastered]
[Stealth has increased to Lv3]
[Trail Cover has increased to Mastered]
[Silencer has increased to Mastered]
[Erasing Presence has increased to Mastered]
[Jump has increased to Mastered]
Surprisingly, her [Jump] skill also reached Mastered level along with all of her infiltration skills but her [Stealth] skill only level up once and Tang Li Xue concluded that if she upgraded the skill then it would be harder for her to level it uppared with un-upgraded one.
''It will take a longer time to grind [Stealth] to reach the Mastered level! I already waste four days! I cannot wait anymore and moreover, I also need some time to familiarize myself with [Ethereal Form]ter! Let''s justbine it now!''
[Stealth (Lv3), Odorless (Mastered), Trail Cover (Mastered), Silencer (Mastered), Erasing Presence (Mastered) can bebined into Divine Ability [Ethereal Form] with cost 20 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''Fuuuuuh... Hopefully, this skill is as OP as its name or it would really screw up everything! YES!''
[You have gained Divine Ability (Ethereal Form)]
[Ethereal Form]: When activated, the user will turn invisible and the user can also pass through all solid materials or physical objects.
(Note 1: The damage caused by elemental object/attack would be doubled when the user in [Ethereal Form]. [Ethereal Form] would be canceled if the user touched any elemental object or attacked by the elemental attack!)
(Note 2: The user also gains passive ability [Conceal] can be toggled on/off ording to user preference.)
''??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!''
''Other than turned invisible I can pass through all solid material now?! Woooooaaaaaahhhhh! What a crazy OP divine ability! So as long as I activate this [Ethereal Form] anyone can''t touch me at all?!''
''And also what is this passive ability [Conceal]?''
Tang Li Xue tried to toggle [Conceal] on but she was a bit disappointed in its effect.
In short, this [Conceal] ability was [Odorless], [Trail Cover], [Silencer], and [Erasing Presence]bined into one passive ability. Well¡ at least this [Conceal] ability would not take any stamina from now on since it counts as passive ability now.
''Whatever! Now, Let''s try how OP this [Ethereal Form] is?!''
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and tried to touch the nearby vase with her tiny paw but it passed through it as if she was a ghost now!
''Awesome! Unfortunately, it also means that I cannot touch any solid material¡ Sigh¡ It also means that I cannot steal any items when I am still in this [Ethereal Form]¡''
Tang Li Xue tried to jump on the top of the bed and she managed tond on the bed while still in her [Ethereal Form].
''Strange¡ Why I can stand on the top of bed if I can pass through all material objects?''
When she thought about that her body immediately sunk and passed through the bed then fell on the ground below the bed.
''Eeeeeh? Now I passed through the bed and drop down to the ground? Strange¡ then why I can stand on the ground? Aren''t ground or floor also solid object?''
Again when she thought about why she can''t pass through the ground, her body began to sink down in the ground as if she stood on the top of the mud.
Tang Li Xue quickly jumped to the top of the nearby bedside table while canceled her [Ethereal Form] in a panic!
''Damn! So I can control where I want to stand? If I think I want to pass this table and stood on the ground then my [Ethereal Form] would let me pass through the table and stand on the ground¡''
Tang Li Xue became quite afraid with this [Ethereal Form] when she thought: ''What if I failed to control this [Ethereal Form]? Isn''t it mean that I will continue to sink deeper inside the ground without any ce to stand?! And what will happen if I cancel my [Ethereal Form] when I am still inside the ground or wall? Will I turn into mincemeat?''
Tang Li Xue''s tiny body shuddered in fear and horror when she thought about all the consequences!
''It looks like I will need more time to familiarize myself with this [Ethereal Form] then learn how to control and use it properly since I don''t want something bad happened when I use it!''
For the first time Tang Li Xue learned that the stronger the divine ability was, the harder it would be to control it, and the higher the risk to use it too! Well¡ actually, thisw was not only applicable for divine ability but any kind of power!
Tang Li Xue also concluded that elemental object or attack that the system said should be about fire, water/ice, thunder, wind, and earth but since earth usually about stone or metal then it was not included, she could also use [Ethereal Form] to pass through water.
While in [Ethereal Form] Tang Li Xue still could feel cold or hot so her weakness was more like heat or cold rather than some kind of object or attack¡ and when that heat or cold reaches a certain threshold it would capable of breaking her [Ethereal Form] and make her injured.
After using one and a half days to familiarize and train on how to use the [Ethereal Form] properly, Tang Li Xue barely able to control where she would stand, and at least she would not sink into the ground or floor like before. She also tried to use the same method and touch something while in [Ethereal Form] but it still did not bear any result.
Counting today, Tang Li Xue was already using five and a half-day! She only has one and a half-day to finish her quest ording to the system!
Since tomorrow was thest day, Tang Li Xue decided to go and visit that Elder Lin''s ce tonight!
But before that, she needed to ask some questions that always nagging her mind until now¡ and the one that she could ask was only her lizard mommy! So she activated her [Sprint] and dashed toward that lizard fortress as fast as she can before the sky turned dark!
Chapter 38 - 38: Asking For the Fake Dragon’s Assistance!
Chapter 38 - 38: Asking For the Fake Dragon¡¯s Assistance!
Tang Li Xue surprised that [Ethereal Form] could actually activate along with her [Sprint] now! Unlike her previous [Stealth] that would break if she activated [Sprint].
''So it''s also mean I can move faster while still stay invisible and I can even pass through every solid object that obstructing my way! That is awesome! ..... But why do I feel I have entered the assassin''s path deeper and deeper? Meh¡ Whatever! At least this OP divine ability would make me invulnerable to physical attack!''
With her current breakneck speed, Tang Li Xue arrived at the fake dragon''s fortress in no time.
She intended to surprise the fake dragon with her arrival so she used her [Ethereal Form] and passed through the fortress wall only to see the fake dragon doing something disturbing¡
Her lizard mommy was actually doing an aerobic dance while humming "Do-Di-Do-Di-Dum-Dum" sounds along with all of its chains nking sounds, it actually makes something like proper music.
Tang Li Xue felt as if she was struck by lightning when she saw what happened in front of her.
''.......I¡ I did not see anything¡. Let''s enter from the front gate like usual¡''
Tang Li Xue was still in her [Ethereal Form] so she could pass through the fortress wall once again easily to outside.
Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] was a divine ability far surpass her previous [Stealth] along with her [Conceal] still toggled on, it was natural that the fake dragon did not feel any of her presence and she did not even open the front gate now so she did not make any sound like usual.
Tang Li Xue entered the fortress from the front gate like usual now with her [Ethereal Form] and [Conceal] turned off.
Unlike before, the fake dragon already put its usual cool majestic dragon''s pose as if it saying ''I know you areing'' like usual.
"Littless¡ it is only a few days but you already miss me hahaha¡ Alright, what do you want to ask from me today?"
Tang Li Xue''s eyes twitched a bit when she saw that the fake dragon acted as if he was doing nothing other than waiting for her toe again¡
''Sigh¡ Life is really full of drama¡ Well, I don''t have much time. Let''s ask it right away then!''
Like usual, Tang Li Xue tried tomunicate with the fake dragon with her ''vague and hard to understand'' gesture. It took much effort until the fake dragon understood what she wanted to ask.
"So you want to ask how to use the spatial ring?" The fake dragon put its giant w on its chin and asked.
Tang Li Xue''s eyes brightened up and she nodded enthusiastically.
She nned to borrow some of Xiao Hei''s unused spatial rings in his room to take all the pills and the precious herbs in Elder Lin''s ceter!
"It''s impossible¡ Forget about a savage beast like you, even a demonic beast like me cannot use it!" The fake dragon said nonchntly but its words shattering Tang Li Xue''s n made her wanted to kill herself¡ Err¡ It was totally wrong, she always loves herself the most so ''she wanted to kill somebody else so badly'' would be more precise.
''Wait a minute¡ I also have a dantian like humans now! Is it really no other way for me to use it?'' Tang Li Xue stared at the fake dragon full of doubt and contempt.
"Hey¡ Hey¡ Hey¡ What do you mean with that stare? You don''t believe in my words? Listen up, littless! The way to open a spatial ring is by using Qi! And the species that could use Qi are only humans! A demonic beast like me uses vitality energy! Do you understand now?" The fake dragon was a little angry and exined more clearly this time.
''What a headache! So I need Qi to open the spatial ring and put some items inside it? To be able to use Qi I need to reach Qi Condensation Stage first! Sigh¡ If only system inventory could be used to store any items other than the items from the system then I don''t need to be this anxious!''
Yes¡ Tang Li Xue already tried it several times before! She tried to store several items into her system inventory but it was futile! The system inventory could only be used to store the items from the system itself!
As for reaching the Qi Condensation Stage?
At first, Tang Li Xue was really happy when she gained her dantian and she also used deity coins toprehend ''Body Tempering Stage Secret''.
Tang Li Xue already had everything she needed to start her cultivation path!
Unfortunately, cultivation was actually harder than everyone that read wuxia''s novel could imagine! Each time Tang Li Xue cultivating and trying to use the energy of heaven and earth to temper her body, its difficulty was as if she was trying to solve 100 questions about Advanced Calculus and she cannot make any mistake or she would be injured as punishment!
She did not even manage to reach the first rank body tempering stage after cultivating ''Body Tempering Stage Secret'' in these few days!
''Every wuxia novels and all of its OP protagonists that could advance their cultivation as easy as eating is bullsh*t!'' Tang Li Xue cursed in her mind.
Tang Li Xue was still busy, tossing and turning her brain to think a new n on how she could rob¡ errr¡ to take back Xiao Hei''s resources from Elder Lin''s ce while bullying¡ I mean punishing him at the same time.
"Actually¡ Err¡ Are you really in dire need to use the spatial ring? What are you nning to use it for? Is it that important?" The fake dragon asked while still hesitant about something.
Tang Li Xue raised her furry head and stared at the fake dragon. She immediately detected the fake dragon''s hesitation.
''Does this fake dragon have something simr like the spatial ring in its possession that can be used by even the beasts?''
Tang Li Xue''s eyes squinted up as she waved her tiny paws upwards like a street thug asking for money from the passerby.
The fake dragon lowered its head and took out a tiny pouch from the back of its head with its giant w. The fake dragon lowered its w that held the tiny pouch slowly but it still clearly hesitant to give it to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue felt very annoyed with how this fake dragon''s act so she jumped up and forcefully took the small pouch from it. Her smooth action was really like a female thug that took the money by force from the passerby now.
"That¡ That is my space pouch made from the demonic beast''s skin that has space-type divine ability! It is countless times more expensive and rare than any human''s spatial ring! I¡ I only have one so I only let you borrow it! Do not forget to give it back to me after you finish using it!" The fake dragon anxiously reminded Tang Li Xue again and again.
Tang Li Xue nonchntly waved her paws then went out from the fortress, the fake dragon did not know if she tried to say ''go away'', ''don''t worry'' or ''goodbye''. It could only hope that Tang Li Xue would give its precious space pouch backter.
Tang Li Xue put the small space pouch on her neck like a ne then went back to Xiao Hei''s courtyard to wait for the sky turned dark.
Tang Li Xue also experimented with her new space pouch and store several chairs and tables inside then pull it all out then store it again and again.
''Awesome! This pouch is like a spatial ring but I do not need to use any Qi to store any items inside it! This is more like the future cat robot''s pouch nyahahaha~~''
Chapter 39 - 39: Infiltrate Elder Lins Residence... Begin!
Chapter 39 - 39: Infiltrate Elder Lin''s Residence... Begin!
Tang Li Xue tried to activate her [Ethereal Form] and her space pouch also went invisible like her body.
''Eeeh¡ So when I activate my [Ethereal Form], this space pouch is also following me and be ethereal too? But¡ why? So strange¡ since it''s also solid material then should it pass through my body like another solid object?''
Plop¡
When Tang Li Xue started to think about it, the invisible space pouch passed through her body that was still in [Ethereal Form] then dropped onto the ground, its invisibility also canceled and it went back to the usual space pouch like before.
Headache¡ So it went back to how good her control over this [Ethereal Form] in the end! The same as how she could choose to stand on the top of the table or to pass through it and drop down to the ground¡
There''s no doubt that this [Ethereal Form] was a super OP divine ability but it also put too much emphasis on great control, calction, prediction, experience, then countless trial and error to make it a fearsome ability.
But from this, Tang Li Xue concluded that the smaller or lighter the items were, the easier for her to carry it with her when she activates her [Ethereal Form].
Since Tang Li Xue already trained herself on using [Ethereal Form] for a few days, she only needs a few minutes to adapted and let her space pouch follow her when she activated her [Ethereal Form].
Now Tang Li Xue only needs to wait until the sky went dark since she did not have any other work, she could only absentmindedly look at her skill list window looking for some useful abilities that she would be neededter amongst thousands of them.
''Come to think about that traitor Feng Er¡ what should I do next? Tell Xiao Hei about her? Meh, the key problem is actually not ''how I should tell him'' but ''would he believe what I will tell himter''!''
Think about it¡ If a wild fox that you have found from the forest a month ago told you that your trusted person was actually a traitor! Would you believe it? Of course not!
Even if Xiao Hei half-believe in her words and keep his distance from that Feng Er, would he believe it if she also told him that several people by his side was actually spies or traitor too? Again, no!
Then let''s imagine if Xiao Hei believes her words once again then what? He would only search for some evidence before executing them! Not looking down on her Xiao Hei but with that cunning uncle of his, it was almost impossible for Xiao Hei to find any concrete evidence about them being his uncle spies even if Xiao Hei flipped all their houses upside down!
Headache¡
''Wait a minute¡'' Tang Li Xue thatzily lying down on the bed before suddenly stood up as she realized something.
''I am so stupid! There is no need for me to make the move first for now!''
''Think about it¡ If I manage to seed in my quest this time and I also manage to take all the resources in Elder Lin''s possession¡ that bald fatty would probably go insane and panic, he would instructing all of his subordinates and spies to find out who is the one that took his resources! If at that time I tell Xiao Hei about it¡ Uwehehehe¡ then we can easily find some irrefutable proofs of them being the spies and traitors of that bald fatty in one single swoop!''
BAAAAAM~~!
Tang Li Xue mmed her tiny paws on the bed in excitement but she forgot that she still opened her system''s skill list window in front of her so she identally mmed her paw onto it!
[You have gained Shared EXP ability!]
''Damn! I make a mistake! What the hell with this useless skill?! Sigh¡ Whatever¡ it just one skill point anyway¡ Eh¡ It took 5 skill points to buy it?! So expensive only for this useless skill?! F*ck! I just wasted my precious skill points for nothing!''
Tang Li Xue felt very irritated but she forced herself to calm down and check the new skill that she identally acquired just now.
[Shared EXP status:]
[Level: 100%]
[Cultivation: 0%]
''?????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!''
''What the hell is this?! Wait a minute????? don''t tell me that this is¡''
Tang Li Xue''s breathes heavier as she tried to set the [Shared EXP] parameter with her trembling tiny paw.
[Shared EXP status:]
[Level: 0%]
[Cultivation: 100%]
''IT WORKS! Now let''s rob¡ Cough¡ Cough¡ l mean let''s take a patrol to maintain justice!''
With Tang Li Xue''s current strength, she was the small tyrant for all outer disciples. Even Qing Wu that already at the peak of Body Tempering Stage was beaten by her to the point his martial soul shattered and he would need a few years to recover his wounded soul.
Fighting for cultivation resources would always happen in every part of every sect so it did not take long for Tang Li Xue to rob¡ errr¡ to stop some outer disciples from fighting while confiscated their Body Tempering Pills as their punishment.
Tang Li Xue took the bottle full of Body Tempering Pills back to Xiao Hei''s room.
''Please¡ Let this work! Or I will be damned if I must cultivate step by step like normal people!''
Tang Li Xue popped the Body Tempering Pills one by one into her mouth.
[EXP gained!]
[EXP gained!]
[EXP gained!]
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment when she did not manage to have any breakthrough in her cultivation after almost consumed all of the Body Tempering Pills.
''Sigh¡ So it''s only my imagination huh¡ what a pity! I thought that this [Shared EXP] would give my EXP to my cultivation rather than to my level¡''
But when Tang Li Xue popped thest Body Tempering Pill into her mouth¡
BAAAAANG~~!
[Congrattion! Your cultivation breakthrough to Rank 1 Body Tempering Stage!]
''YEEEEEESSSS! Check status!''

''All stats +30 not bad at all! If I reach the peak of Body Tempering Stage that means I would get all stats +300! Awesome! I wonder why Qing Wu is not as OP as me?!''
The answer was simple because not all people would get stat boost as many as her since she cultivates Body Tempering Stage Secret Manual from the system after all!
The stats boost that she gets from that manual was actually the maximum stats boost that the Body Tempering Stage cultivator can get when they are in that stage!
Of course, since there had a pro, there also had a con! The cons were that this Body Tempering Stage Secret Manual actually very hard to cultivate! This was also why Tang Li Xue stuck in her cultivation all this time!
''But my toughness stillcking and I can only maintain [Ethereal Form] for ten minutes or so¡ Let''s raise it then!''
Tang Li Xue put 100 of her free stat points into her toughness stats increased it to 160! She was originally nned to raise her toughness stats so she can get more stamina to sustain her [Ethereal Form] but who knows that¡
HP: 28,500/28,500
''Holysh*t! 28,500! Muahahahaha~~ who dare to say that fox is fragile now? I, the future Queen of Moonlight Forest is now as tanky as those giant demonic beasts! Muahahahaha~~''
Actually, her current high HP was mostly thanks to her [Innate: Toughness] divine ability that tripled her toughness stats but when she added 100 points it did not mean that her HP increase would almost triple from the previous amount too since her HP also increased during her level up and not all of ite from her toughness stats.
Without her knowing the sky was already dark outside so Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Sprint] then dashed toward Elder Lin''s residence.
The current Tang Li Xue was already quite strongpared to before so she was a bit underestimate this current ''hard'' difficulty quest but she actually forgot something very very important!
The system always calcted and adjusted the difficulty with the current circ.u.mstance along with Tang Li Xue''s current strength and her growth!
So if the system judged that the quest was ''hard'' difficulty for Tang Li Xue then it means no matter how strong she became it would still ''hard'' for her toplete it!
Unfortunately, the current Tang Li Xue still did not realize this fact and measure this Elder Lin''s ''hard'' difficulty quest as the same difficulty as the farm exploration from before and she would surely regret itter!
Chapter 40 - 40: Trap and Gamble!
Chapter 40 - 40: Trap and Gamble!
Pitter¡ Patter¡ Pitter¡ Patter¡
The rain began to fall from the night sky when Tang Li Xue arrived at Elder Lin''s residence.
Elder Lin''s residence was actually no less luxurious and big than Xiao Hei''s uncle. It was also signified how important Elder Lin in that fatty uncle''s eyes.
Not only that, but the number of guards ced at this Elder Lin''s ce was also simply astounding!
''As I expect from that cunning uncle¡ He must be afraid that Xiao Hei sent some assassins to take revenge against Elder Lin or steal the abundant resources from Elder Lin''s ce! Unfortunately, all of these guards are useless against me! Uwehehehe¡''
Although the rain was still pouring down heavily, it did not affect Tang Li Xue''s movement or her [Ethereal Form] divine ability at all!
With her [Enhanced Sense of Sight] plus her [Night Vision], she did not have any difficulty moving with high speed in the dark!
Moreover, she also supported by her [Enhanced Sense of Hearing] and [Enhanced Sense of Smell] for detection!
In fact, she already discovered several ck-clothed men hiding in the shadow. Of course, all of these ck-clothed people''s intentions were not to assassinate Elder Lin, on the contrary, all of them must be fatty uncle''s shadow guards that assigned to guard Elder Lin secretly.
''Mufufufu¡ Patrolling guards? Useless! PASS!''
Tang Li Xue dashed pass through all the patrolling guards effortlessly.
''Shadow guards hiding in the shadow? Easy! PASS!''
All the hiding shadow guards can''t even see and feel her presence so how could they stop Tang Li Xue! So once again, Tang Li Xue passed them easily.
''Huh¡ are those traps? Pffft¡ Such an old fashioned trap! That''s futile! PASS!''
There were several very thin silk wires connected with several bamboos, the purposes of these traps were that if the intruder identally touched it would make loud sounds to rm all the guards.
However, Tang Li Xue could even pass through the solid wall with her [Ethereal Form] let alone this kind of traps! So Tang Li Xue once again passed through all of them like the wind.
Each time she passed an obstacle, Tang Li Xue''s confidence became more and more swelling! In the end, she felt toocent and it would be proof to be fatal in this kind of delicate quest just like now because one small mistake would be enough to mess it all up!
''Eehhh¡ What is that? Another trap? No problem! PAAA¡ AAAAAAHHHH!''
Tang Li Xue only looked at other thin silk wires several meters in front of her but before she reached there, her tiny furry body dropped down!
Bwooooosh~~! Plop!
Another ssic trap: deep trap hole full of sharp spikes!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue was still in her cheat-like [Ethereal Form] mode so all of those sharp spikes passed through her body harmlessly.
''Tsk¡ another old trap! But how could I didn''t find it before?.......Illusion? They are using an illusion to cover it now? Tsk¡ Tsk¡ Now how could I go back to the surface? Even my [Jump] skill cannot reach that high!''
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to buy [Climb] skill from her system that cost her another 1 Skill Point then used it to climb back up from the deep hole to the surface.
''Haaaiiissss¡ Maybe it will be easier if I infiltrate from the front gate using my [Ethereal Form] rather than sneaking from the backside like now¡ Whatever¡ It is already toote to turn back now! I already entered too deep into his courtyard! Rather than taking the detour, I prefer to face it head-on since it is faster and saving more time!''
Tang Li Xue could only sustain her [Ethereal Form] for less than thirty minutes so she knew she must be quick!
''Rather than dilly-dally around being too careful and waste too much time... Let''s just push it through bravely forward! CHAAAARRGEEEE!''
Tang Li Xue''s dashed forward to Elder Lin''s residence with her full speed along with her [Sprint] and [Ethereal Form] activated!
''Uaaaaaaaarrrrghhhhh... climb! Again... CHAAAAARGEEEEE!''
''Hooooooguuuuuffff... climb! Again... CHAAAARGEEEE!''
She dropped down into several trap holes again and again but she did not mind it at all and climb back up again and again!
''Fortunately, there are no traps likendmines, or I will be really damned!''
Actually, there ARE the traps likendmines in that courtyard but the mechanism was a bit different from her previous world. It was called ''Exploding Talisman'' and as its name suggested, it would explode if someone touched it!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue always have her [Ethereal Form] activated at all times since she entered this Elder Lin''s courtyard so all the traps that required touching to trigger it like Exploding Talisman were not triggered until now if not she would probably be torn into pieces or exploded into dust already!
''Hosh... Hosh... Hosh... At...st... finally... I... arrived...''
Tang Li Xue was running pass through the wall in front of her then she immediately slumped down in exhaustion as she breathes more heavily than before after that.
But even after she lied down on the floor for a few minutes, she still could not alleviate her exhaustion. In fact, she became even more exhausted since her [Ethereal Form] still chipping her stamina bit by bit each second passing.
In Tang Li Xue''s prediction, she should be moving around in her [Ethereal Form] for less than ten minutes but under constant extreme situations like tonight when she needed to use [Night Vision], [Climb], and [Sprint] along with her several enhanced sense skills continuously, Tang Li Xue realized for the first time that she was too overestimating herself!
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and decided to check her surroundings first!
It seems she entered a big room full of tall bookshelves that filled with countless books from new to old.
''I am in the library now, huh... Should I rest for a bit here?''
However, Tang Li Xue did not know why but her feeling became even more unsettled even when she knew that she was in the library and not in some tightly guarded room now.
Tang Li Xue observed her surrounding carefully, it was very dark in this library but with her [Night Vision] she could saw everything as clear as day.
While walking around and observe, Tang Li Xue''s mind was still thinking for the reason why that bald fatty ced so many efforts in protecting this ce now?!
Tang Li Xue squinted her fox eyes when she thought the reason...
''That bald fatty probably put all of his rare precious herbs and materials here so Elder Lin could concoct all of them into pills for all the people in his faction! That is the only reason why he ced all of his people here to guard this ce even going as far as putting those dangerous traps!''
Tang Li Xue smirked as her confidence shown in her expression.
''Then this is a gamble between Xiao Hei''s uncle and me!''
Yes, this was a gamble between them!
If Tang Li Xue really managed to rob all the resources in this Elder Lin''s ce and get her revenge to that Elder Lin then she would deal a very heavy blow not to that Elder Lin but also to that fatty uncle and his faction at once! Flipping the situation between Xiao Hei and his uncle in one move! in a single night!
Of course, it was not easy at all since her movement also limited by the time! She only has several hours to find Elder Lin and to take all of those resources into her pouch! If not, the morning wille and it would make her harder to move around and who knows if that cunning fatty uncle woulde here too in the morning?!
AND Tang Li Xue also did not have any information about this residence''s blueprint, not even one bit! So she must explore all the rooms in this residence one by one to find where Elder Lin was and where he stored all of his resources...
''Sigh... headache!!! Also which direction am I heading now? East, west, south, or north?........ Aaaarrrrggghhhh... This ce is really making me crazy!!! And I am very tired now! I want to go rest so badly!''
Chapter 41 - 41: (Spoiler Title at the Bottom of This Chapter)
Chapter 41 - 41: (Spoiler Title at the Bottom of This Chapter)
Since Tang Li Xue already confirmed that no one inside this dark library and it was quite safe, she decided to turn off her [Ethereal Form] and took some rest to alleviate her exhaustion and sat on the library''s floor.
''Just ten minutes is enough for me to rest¡ and also I need to think about what I need to do now! This huge residence is really killing me! My quest would be over once I get lost in here¡ especially if I use my [Ethereal Form] to pass through the wall one after another¡ it will make me easier to lose my way!''
Tang Li Xue did not waste any of her rest time, she immediately started to browse her skill list window to find any useful skill that could help her out of her current predicament!
She did not find any skill that fit with fit her requirement except one skill called [Mapping].
Tang Li Xue decided to buy that [Mapping] skill without any hesitation which cost her one Skill Point.
''I thought this [Mapping] skill is a barely useful skill that makes me remember a ce that I have ever visited before but I was wrong! It seems this [Mapping] skill is actually like a mapping system in the RPG games¡ it can automatically make apleteyout of the ce where I have ever seen before in my mind and in theyout is in 3D!''
For example, the back courtyard that she already passed through before, it was already made into apleteyout with her [Mapping] skills and imprinted in her mind including all of the traps in it. The same things also applied to this library.
''This skill is quite awesome! Sigh¡ All of the skills from the system are so useful that it makes me hard to choose!''
BAAAAAAAAAANG~~!
-1,637 (taken by [Substitute Doll])
HP: 28,500/28,500
Tang Li Xue''s tiny body flung several meters and crashed to the bookshelf!
''Dammit! Who the hell dare to sneak attack me?!''
But Tang Li Xue''s body shuddered in fear and shock when she saw what attacked her!
''A GHOST?!''
It was a floating white skeleton covered with a ck tattered robe and holding long death scythe made from white bones.
Actually, its appearance looks really like a ghost if not for the status that appeared when Tang Li Xue nced at it, she would really believe that this library was truly haunted.
''Or¡ not¡ a ghost¡ This useless pile of bones is really good at scaring people away!''
[Species: Yin Specter]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 16]
[HP: 12,500/12,500]
However, Tang Li Xue still exhausted to death and she could barely move now so how can she fight back against this fake ghost!
Tang Li Xue could only grit her teeth in the unwillingness and popped [Stamina Pill] into her mouth.
She actually did not n to use any of her pills from her system if not really necessary since all of the pills from the system were incredibly precious and she did not even manage to get more of it in the [Level 10 Beginner Gift Package]!
Actually, she was afraid that she would not be able to get more pill supply even from the future package, and the only way for her to obtain it would be from the lottery ticket!
But she has no other choice now¡
Tang Li Xue instantly recovered all of her stamina after she swallowed the [Stamina Pill] even any trace of fatiguepletely erased from her body!
''What an awesome pill! Again, as I expect from the system!''
But before thinking about what she would do in this situation, Tang Li Xue swiftly took out her [Substitute Doll] from her inventory system and pulled a few strands of her silver furs from it!
[Sessfully unbind the Substitute Doll from the owner. From now on any damage or lethal damage the owner takes will not be transferred to substitute doll anymore.]
Tang Li Xue quickly sighed in relief when she read the message from the system.
''I will be damned if I wasted my precious [Substitute Doll] against this pile of bones!''
Tang Li Xue inspected her [Substitute Doll] for a moment and she found a shallow scratch on its body where Yin Specter shed her before but fortunately, there was no serious damage so Tang Li Xue did not mind it and stored it back into her inventory system.
The Yin Specter looks angry when Tang Li Xue stood up as if nothing happen and ying with a straw doll in front of it so it flew toward her once more and swung its bone death scythe toward her!
Tang Li Xue did not panic, she calmly activated her [Ethereal Form] and turned invisible made the bone death scythe passed through her body without dealing any damage.
Yin Specter looked around, it cannot find Tang Li Xue''s trace at all so it turned invisible once again like before!
''Eh¡ That fake ghost can also use [Ethereal Form]? Meh¡ impossible¡ of course not, it''s probably just a skill simr to my [Stealth] before!''
Tang Li Xue still feels very angry with that Yin Specter for ambushing her and she really wanted to take revenge right here and then but she also realized that she had limited time.
It would take too much time and effort to kill this Yin Specter since it''s able to turn itself invisible. Moreover, Tang Li Xue also predicted that she would need to fight eventuallyter in Elder Lin''s room or resources storage room so it was better for her to save more time and energy for now!
''Fake ghost, you are lucky that This Queen is very busy today if not you would already be turned into a pile of broken bones in a few seconds! Humph!''
Since Tang Li Xue did not know which one was south, north, east, or west then she started to visualize everything in her mind.
''If the back courtyard is the south and this library is the center¡ then let''s check what room is in the north, east, and west of us one by one!''
Chapter 41: Ghost in the Library!
Chapter 42 - 42: Herb Garden Full of Wonder!
Chapter 42 - 42: Herb Garden Full of Wonder!
''This is study room¡ Useless! Next! This is¡ guest room? Next! This is¡ kitchen? Nex¡ wait a minute, is there some roasted meat in here for me to eat? I am starving now¡ Urgghhh¡ but my time is limited¡ whatever! Next!''
The residence surrounding atmosphere was dark and gloomy if Tang Li Xue did not have her [Night Vision], she would not even be able to see anything in front of her;bined with the quiet environment, only the sound of rain and thunder that could be heard inside the house.
If someone coward that entered this Elder Lin''s residence instead of Tang Li Xue, they would already trembling in fear and piss on their pants because of this residence dreadful atmosphere.
The more Tang Li Xue looking around this empty residence, the more worried she became! So she raised her vignce to the highest.
''Something is not right! There are countless of traps and strong guards guarding outside but why no one guarding inside the residence?!''
After passing the long dark corridor, Tang Li Xue managed to find a ss room like a greenhouse full of various kinds of nt and herb.
''Woooaaahhh¡ A big herb garden! Daayyyuuummm¡ there must be countless rare precious herbs inside!''
Tang Li Xue used her tiny furry paw to wipe her droll that flowing out of her mouth and dashed excitingly toward the closed herb garden.
Judged from some abstruse runes that carved onto the ss wall, Tang Li Xue knew in an instant that there was some kind of formation that protecting the entire herb garden. However, all of thoseplicated formations were useless in front of her [Ethereal Form] since she can run passed through all of those easily.
After Tang Li Xue passed through the ss wall full of abstruse runes carving and stepped inside the herb garden, she immediately smells something weird.
She instantly felt a wave of dizziness and sleepiness attacking her mind!
''Not good! Is this poisonous gas? Or miasma? Dammit!''
Though it sounds the same but it was actually different. Miasma was usually the poisonous vaporing out from the ground, mud, or earth while poison gas was usuallying out from the special type of beasts or nts.
Tang Li Xue observed all the nts around her and she immediately realized what made her dizzy and sleepy.
[Purple Grass]
[Function: A rare herb that can be used as main ingredients for sleeping pills, anesthetic, tranquilizer, and other drugs that rted to that.]
''Damn! So these herbs are the cause!''
Tang Li Xue began to hesitate¡ should she retreat or charge deeper?
Tang Li Xue only needs one second to decide when she imagined those countless precious rare herbs that waiting for her to pick inside this herb garden!
''CHARGE DEEPER!''
Tang Li Xue dashed with her full speed along with [Sprint] skill activated, her speed was unimaginable fast until her silver figure turned blurry!
It only took her a few seconds toe out from the poisonous gas area!
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief as she slowing down her speed and walking to keep an eye on her surroundings.
She immediately raised her guards up since she did not want the same things like the poisonous gas incident happened again. When Tang Li Xue imagined the consequence if she fell asleep until ''who knows how long'' because of that herbs gas, she shuddered in fear.
Unfortunately, the danger usually still came even if you put your guards up to defend against it, and sometimes no one could prevent it even if you put all your guards up, like what happens to Tang Li Xue now¡
SCREEEEEEEEECH!!!
An ear-splitting long scream came out so suddenly from inside the ground below where Tang Li Xue stood.
Tang Li Xue felt her head and mind explode under that deafening voice as her eyes rolled back to her head and her steps began to staggering around like a drunken fox.
That deafening sound effect multiplied greatly on Tang Li Xue because she always had her [Enhanced Sense of Hearing] activated all the time as one of her passive skills.
Since Tang Li Xue''s mind went nk and her consciousness also turned blurry all of those made her [Ethereal Form] broke along with her [Conceal] and [Stealth] mode!
The green flowers on Tang Li Xue''s right side shook violently when Tang Li Xue''s figure suddenly appeared in front of them!
BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡
All the green flowers shot out their green round seeds like a bullet simultaneously toward Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue that still has her mind nk and staggering surely cannot dodge all of those seed bullets so all of those bullets hit her tiny body hard!
-327, -256, -168, -231, -217, -179¡
A long string of damage numbers reduced her current Hit Points continuously!
HP: 21,647/28,500
Tang Li Xue''s tiny body flew several meters to her left side and mmed onto the giant flower that nted there.
The green round seeds that shot on her tiny body actually not only hurt her but also stick on her body, it began to crazily grow, and start to bind her!
Tang Li Xue still felt a terrible head-splitting headache assaulting her mind but she forcefully shook head to clear her mind for a bit.
''What the hell is¡''
Before she has time toin and curse about her current situation, the giant flower where she was crashed on before started to open its big ugly mouth widely and swallowed her whole body down in one gulp!
Csssssss¡ Ssssssshhhhh¡
The moment the yellow liquid inside that giant flower touched Tang Li Xue''s body that still bound by the green seeds it began to make the horrible sound like corrosive acid liquid met with meat. Well, actually the yellow liquid was indeed the corrosive acid liquid itself!
''Aaaahhhh¡ Ouch¡ Ouch¡ Ouch¡ Sh*t! It hurts!''
-75, -75, -75, -75, -75, -75, -75, -75¡
Again¡ a long string of damage reduced her Hit Points non-stop this time without any sign of stopping!
''This is bad! I must find the solution fast or I would be digested until only my bones are left behind!''
Chapter 43 - 43: Pill Storage Room!
Chapter 43 - 43: Pill Storage Room!
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and bit her tongue hard to forcefully clear her mind as head-splitting headache still assault her non-stop.
She turned off her [Enhanced Sense of Hearing] before using her [Rip] to tear all the roots that created by that green seeds to bind her to pieces.
After released from her binding, Tang Li Xue took out her [Recovery Pill] from her inventory system and popped it into her mouth.
Not only all of her wounds began to heal but also all of her terrible headache erased in an instant!
Since her mind functioned back to normal now it also meant that she could activate her [Ethereal Form] back again!
So Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] in an instant and her body easily passed through the giant flower''s body.
But once again¡
SCREEEEECH!!! SCREEEEECH!!! SCREEEEECH!!!
Several ear-splitting shrills once again resounding from below the ground!
Tang Li Xue also once again assaulted by the mind-blowing attack that made her mind went nk and her consciousness blurry!
Fortunately, this time she already turned off her [Enhanced Sense of Hearing] so the effect of that deafening sound attack was reduced significantly than before.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in anger and hatred before decided to retreat back from this terribly dangerous herb garden for now.
However, before that Tang Li Xue checked the several nts that attacked her before one by one for one second¡
[Mandrake]
[Function: Miraculous herb that can be directly eaten to strengthen the eater''s mind, contain hallucinogen so this herb can be used as the main ingredients to create the pill or poison that can affect the mind. Beware of its scream, it''s capable to make the one that heard it went crazy!]
[Green Seed Flower]
[Function: Rare nt used as the ingredient for strong aphrodisiac working both for male and female, its seeds are also rare delicacies that can be used both as the food preservative and spicy seasoning. Be careful of its seed since this nt can shot them like a bullet as their form of self-defense mechanism!]
[Venus Man-Eater]
[Function: Rare herb used as an ingredient for cold or fever medications, its liquid can also be used as an acid poison. Use it with caution!]
''Damn! I would never think that all of them are the proper rare herbs! I thought all of them are the traps that Elder Lin set to prevent the intruder to steal any precious rare herbs from his herb garden!''
But Tang Li Xue still decided to retreat temporarily for now since she was afraid that Mandrake''s ear-splitting scream broke her [Ethereal Form] like before. In fact, her mind already almost copsed under their deafening scream right now.
So she immediately activated her [Sprint] and dashed back to the poisonous gas area, she kept running at her full-speed until she passed through the rune-carved ss wall and went back out from the dangerous herb garden.
''Sigh¡ I need a fire-type attack to deal with all of those horrible nts! Forget it¡ I will think something while looking around at the other rooms to find where that Elder Lin''s are¡''
¡..
Who can think that Tang Li Xue''s luck turned out for better this time, she actually managed to find Pill Storage Room near that herb garden!
Tang Li Xue''s breaths turned heavy as her face turned red in excitement when she saw a huge room full of pills in bottle neatly arranged on the countless multilevel shelves.
The multilevel shelves here were actually many times more than from the bookshelves in the library and the multilevel shelves also a lot taller than the bookshelves!
''Woooaaaahhhh¡ Is this heaven? ...¡.There is no need to doubt¡ This is heaven!''
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in awe when she saw the countless multilevel shelves full of pills in bottles.
However, she managed to forcefully calm herself down and raised her guards back like before since she guessed that it was impossible for this kind of room filled with countless precious pills to be left unguarded!
Tang Li Xue activated her [Enhanced Sense of Hearing] back and this time it really did not disappoint her since her sensitive ear that enhanced by many folds manage to catch the barely inaudible sounds of something moving.
Even though Tang Li Xue was still in her invisible mode, she still proceeds carefully and took a peek at the enemies that she would face from the multi-level shelf gap.
[Hell Hound]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 11]
[HP: 11,600/11,600]
It was the same demonic beast as the one she saw inside the coliseum area in the dome before. This kind of demonic beast did not have high Hit Points but they could deal much more damage than the average [Umon] demonic beast.
In short, this [Hell Hound] has high Strength stats but low Toughness stats!
But unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s sense of hearing did not only catch the sound step of one creature inside this Pill Storage Room...
''Wait a minute... one... three... seven... ten... thirteen! There are thirteen of them! Damn! Ahhhh... there are so many of them!''
In one on one fight, Tang Li Xue have 100% confidence to win but against thirteen of them at once¡ hahaha¡ you must be joking! She would not try it even if her system gave her three more lives to spare!
''So the safest way is to take them one by one swiftly! It should not be too difficult with my [Ethereal Form] but I also have another problem now¡ sigh¡ my agility and toughness stats are quite high but my strength stats are still too low without any support from the passive innate divine ability!''
Tang Li Xue added 80 of her free stats points into her Strength Stats make it reach 200, the minimum requirement for her to evolveter plus 30 from her Rank 1 Body Tempering Stage cultivation, her strength 230 in total right now.
She also added 60 free stats points into her Agility Stats to make it reach 200 too. Only leaving her with 19 free stats points remaining.
However, her Strength Stats was still farckingpared with her Agility Stats that reach 630 with her [Innate: Agility] help ((200 * 3) + 30=630) and her Toughness Stats that reach 510 with her [Innate: Toughness] support ((160 * 3) + 30=510).
''In order to finish them one by one swiftly, I need to do two things! The surprise attack and one move filled with an overwhelming strength that strong enough to finish them if it struck their vital point! Let''s buy more strength enhancement skill then¡''
''First, let''s buy [Greater Strength] passive skill!''
[You have gained Greater Strength ability!]
''Eeeehhh¡ There is a skill like this too?! BUY!''
[You have gained Deal More Damage ability!]
''Tsk¡ tsk¡ [Strengthen Muscles]¡ Is it going to make me a bulky fox? Meh¡ I hope not¡ sigh¡ a beggar can''t be picky anyway¡ BUY!''
[You have gained Strengthen Muscles ability!]
[Greater Strength (Lv1), Deal More Damage (Lv1), Strengthen Muscles (Lv1) can bebined into divine ability [Innate: Strength] with cost 10 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''?????????!!!!!!!!!''
''YES! YEEESS! YEEEEEESSSSS! I identally found [Innate: Strength]bination! It really came at the right time hahaha! YES! Combine it now!''
[Sorry, your current Skill Points is not enough yet!]
[You can try leveling up all the required skills to reduce the cost for thebination!]
''SHIIIIIIIIIIITTTT! Oh my God¡ at the time like this and I run out of my skill points?! You must be kidding with me!''
Chapter 44 - 44: Kill and Run!
Chapter 44 - 44: Kill and Run!
''Whatever... My strength and agility should be enough to finish one of them then hide with [Ethereal Form]! Then I will target another one again with the same method until no one left uwehehehe...''
Though there were thirteen Hell Hounds in total, but their position was totally scattered in the Pill Storage Room. It was like they already trained to do so and guard their own territory to prevent any intruders or thieves sneaking in.
With her [Ethereal Form] still activated, Tang Li Xue''s invisible body easily passed through the nearby shelf and she sneaked closer to the one of Hell Hounds.
Tang Li Xue deactivated her [Ethereal Form] after she managed to approach the Hell Hound and she pounced to it an instant then bite its neck with her [Rip] skill!
"AWOOOO~~!"
The Hell Hound did not even have any time to react at all before it wailed in pain as its neck bit by Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue tore the flesh from the Hell Hound''s neck using her [Rip] skill. Hell Hound''s neck was bleeding profusely but that wound still did not enough to finish it.
''Dammit! I knew my strength is still not enough to kill it in one attack! Now what?! Retreat or continue?! ....... At least let me kill this one!''
Not only Tang Li Xue''s strength was not high enough but her body size also too small so it also makes that her small mouth was incapable to tore therger chunk of flesh from the Hell Hound''s neck.
Blood kept flowing out from Hell Hound''s mouth but its eyes turned red from anger and hatred as its intense killing intent emitted out from its body.
The Hell Hound opened its mouth wide and BOOOM~!
Shooting out fireball asrge as a ser ball toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue used her [Jump] skill to dodge toward her left side while activating her [Mirror of the Moon] copy ability.
[Mirror of the Moon] Active!
Copy start!
Name: [Fireball] Type: Active Skill
Copypleted!
''Yeeeeesssss! What a coincidence?! Now I have a me-type attack to deal with those annoying nts guarding that herb gardenter! Uwehehehe¡''
With Tang Li Xue''s current high agility, the Hell Hound''s movement was only as slow as a turtle on her eyes. She could attack the Hell Hound 4-5 times while the Hell Hound only manages to attack her once.
She mainly targeted the Hell Hound''s eyes to blind it and tore the flesh on its neck, again and again, to make it bleed more heavily.
"Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!"
In only a few seconds after the Hell Hound that Tang Li Xue''s faced wailing, five of its pack came running to help it!
Tang Li Xue knew that she cannot dy it anymore so she dashed toward the wounded Hell Hound in front of her with all of her speed and her [Sprint] skill activated while it still blinded by her attack before and use her [Sharp w] to its neck as her finishing blow!
With Tang Li Xue''s full strength plus her full speed, her [Sharp w] managed to rip the Hell Hound''s arteries on its neck this time and killed it.
Tang Li Xue only dared to do this because the Hell Hound''s eyes were still blind since she used her [Sharp w] to attack its eyes before if not the Hell Hound would definitely shot its [Fireball] at her again like before when she ran toward it and Tang Li Xue that pounced toward the Hell Hound with her full speed would be like a bug flying toward the me!
After sessfully killing one Hell Hound, Tang Li Xue did not stop her feet from moving and still ran with her lightning speed since the five Hell Hounds were still chasing behind her tail right now!
Hell Hound was the strength type demonic beast so their speed was not high. With Tang Li Xue''s high agility stats, it should not be a problem for her to outrun them all. Let alone she also has her [Ethereal Form] that equipped with perfect stealth, Tang Li Xue could easily slip away and escape from them anytime she wants.
BUT Tang Li Xue has another n stored for them!
She did not use her [Ethereal Form] at all, she even deactivated her [Sprint] skill halfway, and purposely lower her running speed so all of those five Hell Hounds could catch up to her!
Unfortunately, those five Hell Hounds behind Tang Li Xue did not know it and still frantically chasing after her. They even kept increasing their running speed more and more to trying catching up to her.
The five Hell Hounds keep getting closer to Tang Li Xue steadily¡
Five meters¡
Three meters¡
One meter¡
Half meter¡
Tang Li Xue sneered at them as she ran toward a dead end! There were only tall shelves on her right, left, and front so she definitely has nowhere to go now!
Or so those five Hell Hounds thought¡
Tang Li Xue still ran toward the shelf in front of her despite she already saw it since from far! She only separated by half-inch from that shelf before she crashed into it¡
However, she immediately activated her [Ethereal Form] and her body turned invisible then her body passed through the shelf in front of her like a cloud of smoke.
The five Hell Hounds was not that stupid, they also quickly put the brakes on their run before they crashed onto the shelf.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue would not be a fox Tang Li Xue if she did not take this chance to kick them down!
She deactivated her [Ethereal Form] after passed though the shelf then used her [Sprint] and [Jump] along with all of her strength to push the shelf toward the five Hell Hounds.
The five Hell Hounds that just barely managed to put the brakes on their run did not have any more time to dodge the shelf that already tilting toward them.
BAAAANG~~ BAAAANG~~ BAAAANG~~
The tall shelf that Tang Li Xue pushed to fall down also brought the nearby tall multilevel shelves to fall one by one like domino.
After a few seconds, Tang Li Xue still stunned when she saw many tall multilevel shelves fell down because of her action.
Fortunately, all the pill bottles made from the special durable ceramic so not even one of them shattered like a vase.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw that, she already treat all of these pills and its bottles as her own belonging now so if it shattered or the pills inside those bottles damaged, she would be so frustrated and angry.
"Grrrrrrr~~ Grrrrrrr~~ Grrrrrrr~~ Woof! Woof!"
Another seven Hell Hounds was running toward her again!
''Oh no! I made all of my surrounding shelves fell down so I cannot use them as my cover to hide anymore!''
Since the surrounding shelves fell down, the narrow ce where Tang Li Xue stood before be more spacious.
The seven Hell Hounds use this space to their advantage and besiege Tang Li Xue from all directions!
Chapter 45 - 45: Strange Safe Room!
Chapter 45 - 45: Strange Safe Room!
The seven Hell Hounds opened their mouth and shot their [Fireball] skill toward Tang Li Xue that still stood in the middle of their siege.
Tang Li Xue also did not stand idle. Looking at the current situation worsened for her, Tang Li Xue decided to dash toward one of the Hell Hounds!
''Dammit! Are you all a pack of dogs or a pack of wolves?! How could you all cooperate with each other so neatly?!''
Tang Li Xue decided to not use her [Ethereal Form] this time since in her [Ethereal Form] she would receive twice damage from the elemental attack and the Hell Hounds [Fireball] was the fire elemental attack!
Tang Li Xue also opened her mouth and shot her [Fireball] toward the Hell Hound in front of her.
BOOOOM~~!
The two fireballs collided and exploded, although Tang Li Xue''s [fireball] a bit weaker than the Hell Hound''s [Fireball] since her current strength was lower but she manages to neutralize the Hell Hound''s attack.
Fortunately, she already reced her [Ice Bolt] skill with their [Fireball] skill with [Mirror of the Moon] before. If not she would not be able to neutralize Hell Hound''s attack with the fireball explosion effect.
But there were another six fireballs shooting toward her from 6 different directions!
Tang Li Xue dashed with her full speed along with her [Sprint] skill activated toward the Hell Hound whose attack she had already neutralized before.
Six fireballs were chasing after Tang Li Xue with the speed faster than her running speed!
Tang Li Xue started to sway her body right and left, her running way changed from straight into the zigzag pattern. Her high agility stats granted her body with high flexibility so she could easily change her running pattern without decreasing her speed at all!
BOOM~~! BOOM~~! BOOM~~! BOOM~~! BOOM~~! BOOM~~!
One after other fireballs almost hit her but it failed in the end andnded randomly near her then exploded!
Sometimes it exploded behind her, and the other exploded beside her! However, Tang Li Xue still remains untouched by all of those fireballs!
Tang Li Xue arrived in front of one of the Hell Hounds but she still did not slow down her speed at all!
The Hell Hound put its battle stance, prepared itself to battle with Tang Li Xue head-on.
However, the Hell Hound would never think that as Tang Li Xue almost crashed into it, she immediately use her [Jump] skill and took a high leap above the Hell Hound''s head!
Tang Li Xue instantly activated her [Ethereal Form] the moment she used her [Jump] skill, she makes it as if shepletely disappeared in front of the Hell Hound.
The seven Hell Hounds puzzled by Tang Li Xue sudden disappearance and they looked around them full of vignce trying to find where Tang Li Xue was.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue already decided to not y around with all of them anymore¡
''With all of thesemotions, all of those guards who are guarding outside should be realized that something happened here and they would probablye to check this room soon ¡ I should hide first for now! It''s not like that those dogs could tell the guard about me, right? Hehe¡''
Tang Li Xue slipped back silently to where she was before and used her [Fireball] once more to burn the Hell Hound''s body that she killed before.
''It is better to y safe than sorry! It would be bad if those guards noticed that there is an intruder slipped in here!''
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] back and run deeper inside the Pill Storage Room.
.....
Not long after that, just like what Tang Li Xue had predicted. There were tens of patrolling guards entered the Pill Storage Room to check what happened inside.
Well¡ the sound of those Hell Hounds barking and their fireballs exploding everywhere was so loud that it something like this was bound to happen.
BAM~~!
"Unit 3, 4, 5 spread and check all the corners of this room! Unit 1 and 2 block the door! Kill anyone suspicious on sight!" The guard captainmanded with a solemn tone.
"YES, CAPTAIN!!!" All the guards answered in unison and started to follow their captain order.
However, no one realized how nervous their captain actually was¡
''Godd*mn it! If something bad really happens or something is missing from this Pill Storage Room, my head would probably leave my neck on the next morning! I hope nothing bad happened here¡''
After spending 10-20 minutes searching at every corner of Pill Storage Room, they still did not manage to find anyone inside.
"Report, Captain! There is no one inside but we find one dead Hell Hound! The hell hound died because of fire!" One of the guards saluted and said to his captain.
"Is there some pills missing from this room?" The guard captain asked again.
"No, Captain! But we found several shelves fell on five Hell Hounds made them cannot move and wounded! But after we count it, nothing is missing! The all pill''s bottles also remain intact, nothing damaged! We also already helped the Hell Hounds out and treat their wounds!"
The guard captain sighed in relief when he heard that and said: "so nothing is missing or broken¡ It''s good¡ everything is good¡ then how about the dead Hell Hound? Do you find the reason why it died?"
"Yes, Captain! Other than burns, we also find several vague traces of bite and w wounds from the Hell Hounds dead body! We guess that it died because¡" The guards hesitated on what he wanted to say.
"SAY!" The guard captain shouted.
"We guessed that it died because they fighting among themselves!" The guards started to sweat profusely.
The guard captain frowned but this Pill Storage Room was like a safe-deposit box. Other than one sturdy door filled with mechanism and locking array, there was not even a window or a vent here so how could the intruder silently enter and leave from here as he wishes.
Furthermore, there was nothing missing from this room at all so the only conclusion was only the Hell Hounds fighting among themselves and identally kill one of them??
But all of these Hell Hounds were the elites that handpicked by the beast trainer and received years of intense training¡ so how could they fight amongst themselves just like today?! It did not make sense at all! This probability was also very thin!
The guard captain had a terrible headache about this¡ but he really cannot find any other reason since that Hell Hound died because of fire or bite and ws, not because of weapon or human''s attack!
In the end, the guard captain decided to search the entire Pill Storage Room a few times before ordered 2 of his units to guard this Pill Storage Room from outside!
Well, he certainly did not trust his subordinates enough to order them guarding inside Pill Storage Room that was full of precious pills.
"Remember! Do not go inside this room without my permission! Especially the thick iron door inside this room! Do not ever touch it! Do you understand?!" The guard captain gave a harsh warning to his subordinate before leaving them and continues his job to patrol around outside the residence.
The guard captain actually did not know what actually stored inside the thick iron door. It was not his problem anyway since he did not have enough authority to go inside there. His superior only warned him to not touch it.
''Well, it''s not my business anyway! With all of those multiple high ranked locking array and dangerous inscription carved on that thick iron door, I really sure no one can pass that door without the key and proper secret direction¡ Haha¡" The guard captainughed and resumed his duty as usual.
¡..
¡
.
Unfortunately, the guard captain''s guess was wrong this time since he would never think that there was a certain fox with a divine ability to pass through all material objects directly without touching it!
And Tang Li Xue that used her [Ethereal Form] to pass the thick iron door just now was actually in extremely dire straits right now!
sssssss~~!
''HOT! SO HOT!''
Chapter 46 - 46: What Lies Beyond This Round Door?!
Chapter 46 - 46: What Lies Beyond This Round Door?!
¡..
Twenty minutes ago, before all the guards breaking into the Pill Storage Room¡
Tang Li Xue with her [Ethereal Form] still activated entered deeper into the Pill Storage Room.
The gear in Tang Li Xue''s mind spun faster as she pondering her next n.
If she took the pills bottle in this room as many as she could now then all the guards would realize that there was an intruder manage to slip in this residence and they would be wary!
Soon all guards outside would enter this residence and conduct full-scale searching order. It would not only make her a lot harder to move around, but Elder Lin''s will also put up his guard up, and who knows that fatty uncle would evene here to protect Elder Lin.
In short, her mission would be impossible toplete!
DEFINITELY NOT WORTH IT!
So her n was simple!
She would not take anything in this room for now. Just let those guards think that those stupid dogs fight each other then they kill one of themselves in the end!
She already burned the Hell Hound''s body that she killed before anyway.
With the dead Hell Hound''s body burned so badly, all of those guards would not be able to recognize that all of those ws and bite wound was actually from a fox and not from the other hell hound. So she would be safe for now!
''So I only need to hide for one or two hours inside this¡ uh¡ safe-deposit box¡ or safe-deposit room? Whatever room this is¡ until all the guards lowered their guard again and I would slip back to the herb garden then¡. Hehehehe¡''
Tang Li Xue stopped her step when she spotted the round thick iron door. There were countless tiny abstruse runes carved on the entire round door and the wall. All the carved runes also emitting a faint pure golden light, the dangerous pressureing from the round door was making as if it warned the people that looking at it that no one can touch it.
''Wooooaaahhhh! My instinct tells me that this ce definitely used to store the most precious stuff! Is this the ce to store divine pills? Or the most precious herbs? Uwehehehe¡ ENTER!''
Tang Li Xue guessed that those shiny runes carved on the round thick iron door were some kind of high-ranked lock or safety mechanism. Unfortunately, all of those things werepletely useless to stop her!
Tang Li Xue jumped toward the round thick iron door with her [Ethereal Form] and her invisible body easily passed through all arrays and locks.
Tang Li Xue''s instinct was right and this room used as the ce to store Elder Lin''s most precious stuff! However, his most precious stuff was not like what Tang Li Xue imagined it to be!
FWOOOOSH~~!
Searing heat devoured Tang Li Xue''s tiny body the moment she entered the safe room and her [Ethereal Form] instantly broke when the extremely high temperature roasted her furs and skins!
ssssss~~!
''OUCH¡ OUCHH¡ HOT¡ SO HOT!''
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as she tried to activate her [Ethereal Form] once again and retreat from this scalding room but no matter how hard she tried, her [Ethereal Form] break almost immediately the moment she activates it without giving her any chance to go back and passed through the round door once more like before!
Then why Tang Li Xue could pass through the round door from outside?
The answer was simple, it was because the array function carved on the thick round door did not only used to lock the door and prevent the outsider from touching it but also serving as a form of protection for the thick round door from the extreme heat!
So the reason why Tang Li Xue could pass through the door easily from outside before because the round door was not hot at all if the round door also scalding hot like this room then Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] would be broken the moment she touched the round door.
-65, -65, -65, -65, -65, -65, -65¡
''Dammit! I can''t use my [Ethereal Form] to escape! I must find another way to escape from this room as soon as possible! If not I would be a roasted moon fox when morninges!''
Tang Li Xue held the scalding heat that kept assaulting her body and began scanning this room carefully trying to find a window or a vent for her to escape!
It turns out that this room was not the room to concoct pills like she guessed the moment she stepped inside but a genuine safe room full of precious treasures!
[Earth Core Herb]
Function: Miraculous herb that can only grow near the earth''s core, can be used to greatly enhance the internal organ durability and muscle strength.
[Nine-Petals Heavenly Sun Flower]
Function: Miraculous flower that contains a boundless supreme Yang element.
[Bone Tempering Marrow Cleansing Mushroom]
Function: Miraculous mushroom that can temper the bones and expel the impurities hidden in the marrow.
¡..
¡
Tang Li Xue almost drooled the moment she saw precious rare herbs tagged as miraculous medicine scattered on the floor of this room!
''Unfortunately, all of them almost dried up this high degree temperature¡ Wait a minute¡ something is wrong here¡ why that Elder Lin stored all of those super precious herbs inside this broken hot room knowing that something like this would happen? It is as if¡ as if¡''
As if he gave all of these miraculous herbs to nourish something inside this room¡
Tang Li Xue''s scalp went numb the moment she thought about that as she decided to raise her vignce to the max in an instant!
Tang Li Xue looked around the safe room and when she raised her tiny head, she found that there were tens of golden pills floating above the room like several groups of bees. It looks like these golden pills were the same like those herbs, these miraculous pills also used as nourishment for something inside this room!
However, Tang Li Xue did not have any chance to mind about those miraculous golden pills now¡
Since she saw the true cause of the extremely high temperature inside this room¡
''What¡ the¡ hell¡ is¡ that¡''
On the top of the mysterious altar at the end of the safe room¡
It was actually a deep blue me only as big as a pinky!
However, Tang Li Xue did not know why this deep blue me actually made her heart palpitate not only with fear and terror but also with respect and admiration!
Yes, only as big as a pinky but it was more than enough to make this entire safe room made from the thick unknown metal almost melt by its temperature!
''A tiny me?! But¡ what a strange feeling I have¡''
Tang Li Xue did not know why but at this moment she could felt the heart beating from the tiny me!
When Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes met with this deep blue me, she immediately felt a strange connection.
She could clearly felt¡
The deep blue me''s arrogance¡
Unyielding¡
Dignity¡
Noble¡
[The me of Pride (Embryo) asked to be assimted by you, do you want to ept it? Yes/No]
''WHUUUUUTTTTT????????!!!!!!!!!''
Chapter 47 - 47: Enraged!
Chapter 47 - 47: Enraged!
''me of Pride? Embryo? What the hell is this thing anyway?!''
While Tang Li Xue pondered about it, her Health Points keep dropping rapidly and she felt her consciousness started to blurry.
Tang Li Xue felt all of her blood almost evaporated even all of her skin was burn and her meat almost roasted.
She gritted her teeth and she immediately popped one [Recovery Pill] into her mouth to recover all of her burn wounds.
''I only have 3 more [Recovery Pill] now! Sigh¡ I should use it more carefully from now on¡''
Tang Li Xue stopped hesitating and then she chose ''No'' in the end.
Yes, you did not read it wrong¡ she really chose ''No'' nonchntly, happily, without any doubt.
''Joking with me?! What do you mean by assimted? Does it mean to let me ept this scourge and let it enter my body? Hahaha¡ NO! I already stood more than ten meters away from that tiny me and it almost roasted me inside out! You say that you want to assimte with me? Entered my body and burn it from inside? Dream on!''
Tang Li Xue even started to imagine that ''assimte'' actually means she would swallow that whatever me into her stomach and she started to shudder in horror¡
''This system is really crazy! Did you know how hot that little me is?! Why don''t you ask me to swallow theva instead?''
Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue and she started to look around the safe room again to find the exit.
Unfortunately, something Tang Li Xue had never expected was actually happening in front of her eyes now!
The me of pride that Tang Li Xue reject before started to tremble in anger and the temperature inside the room started to rise more and more rapidly!
It felt that Tang Li Xue actually sullied its pride by rejecting it!
Although still in embryonic form, the me of pride already quite smart and it actually had 11-12 years old child intelligence.
It knew that it was a high ranking me spirit!
All creatures should plead it to assimte with him/her, not the contrary!
Even when that old alchemist was pleading to assimte with it and brought all kinds of precious herbs and divine pills to nourish it, it still refused so adamantly!
''Assimte with alchemist and used as a tool to concoct pills every day? What a joke! No way!'' The me of pride thought.
That was why each time Elder Lin tried to forcefully assimte with the me of pride, it immediately tried to self-destruct!
A me of pride was not only an arrogant me but also gant and brave!
It realized that its ability would truly shine in battle!
It should be used by the greatest hero!
The symbol of valor that makes all of the greatest hero''s enemies trembling in fear each time they see its light!
Actually it also reluctant to choose the fox girl in front of it, the fox girl was too weak for its taste but at least she was far better than that old alchemist from before.
At least it detected an untaintable pride and bravery in this fox girl''s pure soul, unlike that cowardly alchemist that concoct the pills inside his room all day.
Also if it was not locked up in this room without any other candidate to meet, it would not choose this weak and fragile fox!
But now she even dares to reject its request to assimte?!
The me of pride once again shuddered in anger as it thinks: ''No matter what I will make you assimte with me!''
Then all of the floating divine pills started to flew toward Tang Li Xue with astonishing speed just like pellets.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
-275, -281, -267, -279, -264¡
''Arrrgghhh¡ Ouch¡ ouch¡ ouch¡ what the¡ dammit! Is it angry? What kind of logic is this? You are angry because I refuse to eat¡ err¡ assimte with you?!''
Just now she ate one [Recovery Pill] topletely restore her Health Points and heal all of her burns and wounds but now all of these tens of divine pills keep attacking her like a rain of bullet made her Health Points plummed down once again even faster than before.
Tang Li Xue also bared her fang in anger, she opened her mouth and crunch several divine pills that she managed to catch in her mouth.
''You all only pills designed to be eaten! Do you all really think that you are the real bullet of something?! Take this¡ Take thisssssss¡ What you all can do other than enter my stomach?!''
[EXP gained!] [All stats +1]
[EXP gained!] [Strength +3]
[EXP gained!] [Agility +2, Toughness +1]
¡..
Tang Li Xue stunned when she saw a long list of stats up after she gulped down several divine pills in her mouth.
''Damn! All of these things are really good stuff! Unfortunately, these pills'' essence almost dried up if not its efficacy should be more potent than this! Come¡e¡ all of youe and let Mommy Tang taste you! Muahahaha¡''
Tang Li Xue did not care about all the damage she received. Each time the divine pills attacked her, she opened up her mouth and crushed several of it in her mouth then swallows it into her stomach happily.
Not only her stats were rising rapidly, but she also got EXP continuously! With her [EXP Share], all of the EXP she gets now did not add to her level but to her cultivation and since her cultivation level was pitifully low right now, it rises so rapidly in a short time!
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level achieved Rank 2 Body Tempering Stage! All stats +30]
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level achieved Rank 3 Body Tempering Stage! All stats +30]
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level achieved Rank 4 Body Tempering Stage! All stats +30]
After receiving a countless hail of attacks, Tang Li Xue coughed out several mouthfuls of blood to the ground but it quickly evaporated because of how hot the room was.
She also started to feel even dizzier and nausea then she started to lose control of her own body as it feels weaker and weaker.
[Warning! HP dropped into a critical level!]
HP: 8,300/36,500
''What?!! Sh*t! Because of how addictive these pills are, I almost forgot about my own Health Points!''
Tang Li Xue sighed as she popped one more [Recovery Pill] into her mouth, now she only had 2 [Recovery Pill] left in her inventory system.
Her Health Points recovered so swiftly that it was full only in a few seconds. All of her previous burns and wounds also vanished without a trace.
HP: 36,500/36,500
Since the divine pills still attacking her, she also resumed eating them again and again. Their number quickly dwindled considerably, Tang Li Xue also manage to level up her cultivation twice before thest pills entered her mouth.
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level achieved Rank 5 Body Tempering Stage! All stats +30]
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level achieved Rank 6 Body Tempering Stage! All stats +30]
However, when Tang Li Xue opened her mouth to eat thest pills that flew toward her, the me of pride also flew toward her mouth with the speed even faster than pills!
Forget about closing her mouth, Tang Li Xue did not even have any time to react at all when the me of pride entered her mouth!
[Assimtion with me of Pride (Embryo) begin! Time remaining untilpletion: 02:59:56.]
The truth was actually not far from what Tang Li Xue had imagined before when the me of pride entered her, the extremely high temperature was rising even more intense and it really roasted her body from inside out!
''Cough¡ cough¡ cough¡ oerrrgh¡ oeeeergggghhh¡ get¡ get out of my body, you scourge! You bully! I already rejected you before! What me of pride?! Fart! You should be called the me of shamelessness instead! Arrrgghhhh¡ HOT¡ HOT¡ SO HOOOTTTTT!''
The me of pride trembling in anger when it sensed Tang Li Xue''s thought and it started to rise its temperature even more!
Her Health Points were actually started to drop even more rapidly than before when she fought with the divine pills!
-1275, -1221, -1197, -1150, -1102,¡
''Dammit! Am I really going to die here?''
Tang Li Xue realized that she actually facing the most dangerous situation in her entire life now!
Chapter 48 - 48: Assimilation and Tempering!
Chapter 48 - 48: Assimtion and Tempering!
The me of Pride entered Tang Li Xue''s body deeper and deeper until it arrived at her dantian.
From her dantian, the me of Pride started to spread to all of her meridians, blood vessels, including to all of her bones and muscles.
The me of Pride started to temper every part of Tang Li Xue''s body from inside out with its scorching temperature.
Right now, deep blue me covered Tang Li Xue''s entire body, it looks fascinating beautiful but the danger that she faced right now was actually very high.
Tang Li Xue tried to use her current strength to resist the deep-blue me that spread on all of her body and the rate of her Health Points decreasing was reduced a lot but when she tried to resist it this way, it also made her stamina decreased more rapidly too!
''UUUUUUUUAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHH¡ Is this your best shot, scourge me?! You tiny little me wants to burn this Queen?! Dream on!''
The me of Pride became even more enraged by Tang Li Xue''s mocking!
BWOOOOSH~~!
The deep-blue me burned even fiercer and hotter until it forming a swirl of me with Tang Li Xue at its center.
Of course, Tang Li Xue was not fool enough to provoke the me of Pride without any reason. There were three reasons why she was doing this!
The first reason was¡
[me of Pride is tempering your body! Toughness +1]
[me of Pride is tempering your body! Toughness +1]
[me of Pride is tempering your body! Toughness +1]
¡..
Yes, even though the assimting process with the me of Pride means Tang Li Xue''s body keeps burning but it also tempering her body with its extremely high temperature!
The second reason was¡
-1032, -995, -951, -903, -886, ¡
Tang Li Xue also did not know why but the burning damage that her body received from the me of Pride keeps decreasing over time, maybe because her Toughness stats be higher and higher or maybe because her resistance to me or heat increased more and more.
She was also aware that three hours to assimte with me of Pride was too long! She only has 2 more [Recovery Pill] and the burning damage she received over three hours would probably kill her even if she used all of her [Recovery Pill] sparingly.
So Tang Li Xue decided to gamble with her life and provoke the me of Pride, again and again, not only to increase her toughness stats and her me resistance but also to speed up their assimtion process! This was her third reason.
Tang Li Xue realized that her Health Points dropped again to the critical level and her stamina also exhausted so she immediately popped one [Recovery Pill] and one [Stamina Pill] into her mouth!
''URRRAAAGHHH¡Haah¡ Haah¡ Is this all you got little me?! Hahaha¡ Too weak! You must be the lowest bottom ranking me! All you can do is making people itch with your warm temperature! You probably cannot even boil the water with your pathetic heat!.....''
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as she felt all of her sweat, tears, and blood started to evaporate under the me of pride extremely high temperature!
She started to felt her eyelid grew heavier, her consciousness also getting more and more blurry.
The deep-blue me that swirling around with Tang Li Xue at its center bes even more concentrated and its blue light also bes more dazzling!
BAAAAAAAMMMM~~!
The swirling me exploded upward making a big pir of blue me even the sturdy iron safe room full of heat protection array started to melt at astounding speed!
Tang Li Xue felt that she cannot hold on anymore, she tossed herst [Recovery Pill] and all of her [Stamina Pill] into her mouth as herst struggle before she fell unconscious under the great pressure of scorching heat and the pir of me.
No one actually aware of this matter and all of them only knows that the temperature at the Elder Lin''s residence rises rapidly tonight.
All of the guards that guarding the Elder Lin''s Residence have pretty high cultivation, they usually never sweating even if they stood under the sun for all day but tonight their sweat started to pour out profusely!
Even Elder Lin that still busily concocting pills in his room did not aware that his most precious me already assimted with another person¡ err¡ another fox.
No one knows how many sacrifices that Elder Lin bear to get this me of Pride embryo, other than the fatty uncle Mo Chonglin.
Elder Lin was a well-renowned alchemist if he received Xiao Hei''s offer to concoct pills along with Mo Chonglin''s faction and Xiao Hei''s grandfather''s faction, he would gain more profit from all of them! He could even ept any offer outside Asura Demon Sect too and gain even more profit if he wanted to!
Then why Elder Lin would be Mo Chonglin''s personal alchemist now and only concoct pills for Mo Chonglin''s faction? Is it makes sense if he only sold his services to only one specific person rather than to all people? It was obvious that he could get more benefits if he sold his services to more people!
The real reason for this was because Mo Chonglin offered this me of Pride to Elder Lin! Elder Lin agreed to work under Mo Chonglin for 100 years and they even already signed a contract agreement.
Assimting with high ranking me was the biggest dream for all renowned alchemists including Elder Lin!
The low-ranking me was born at least every one hundred years.
The mid-ranking me was born every one thousand years.
Then for the high-ranking me? Even waiting for one hundred thousand years, no one could guarantee that someone could find it!
Imagine it¡ for this high-ranking me, the me of Pride, Elder Lin willing to work under Mo Chonglin for 100 years! He had to concoct Pills for Mo Chonglin''s faction every day and night only to get his hand on this me of Pride!
But Elder Lin still did it happily since he thought he got a big bargain here¡ since he only needs to work for 100 years to get a high ranking me that no one could get even if they wait for a hundred thousand years!
Even though the me of Pride rejected him for now and almost self-destructed when he tried to forcefully assimte with the me of Pride but all of these did not make Elder Lin''s down, Elder Lin still believe that someday the me of Pride would yield to him under his constant coaxing.
Elder Lin did not even hesitate to pour all of his resources, all of his precious rare herbs, and divine pills in his possession to nourish the me of Pride. Just like a caring father keep feeding a healthy supplement to his own son and watching his son grow up just so his son could ept him as the father.
Unfortunately, all of those efforts were fated to be in vain because his beloved me of Pride already assimted by the small fox that identally entered his safe chamber.
If Elder Lin really knew about this, he would probably not only vomiting out all blood in his body and went crazy, he would probably alsomit suicide on the spot without any need for Tang Li Xue to do anything at all.
Too bad that these two did not know anything about this right now¡
Chapter 49 - 49: Let This World Burns!
Chapter 49 - 49: Let This World Burns!
¡..
¡
Tang Li Xue''s eyelid trembled slightly as she slowly regained her consciousness.
She opened her eyes suddenly and jumped up in fright then started to check her own limbs and body.
''Fuuuh¡ Thank God, I am still alive! I thought I am really done for this time¡ It looks like my luck in this life is better than my luck in my previous life.''
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and she quickly opened the system window to check her current status¡

''Elemental¡ spirit? What the hell is this? And¡ how can I use this thing? Whatever¡ Let''s forget it for now. My current HP is only 8,120 left?! What a close call! Dammit¡ really¡ I have almost been killed by this little me critter!''
But Tang Li Xue quite pleased with her current cultivation level, it already reached Rank 6 Body Tempering Stage. She only needs to level it up 4 more ranks to awaken her Martial Soul!
Besides that, her basic Toughness stats also reached 300 pushing her maximum HP to reach almost 50,000!
''All of this because of that strange me tempering my body from inside out¡ really not bad at all! Sigh¡ it looks like 300 Toughness stats already reached the maximum capacity for the body tempering method using that me if not the total amount of my Toughness stats should be higher than 300! So I can only raise it higher only with my free stat points now?''
Tang Li Xue once again decided not to think about it for now and started to think about her currently most annoying problem¡
Her current Health Points were too low!
Moreover, this was not in the game! In the game when HP dropped too low it would not impair her movement at all but in reality when her HP dropped too low, it means that she was critically injured and her movement would be severely impaired!
Right now she cannot even activate her [Sprint] skill and her speed dropped to one-tenth from usual!
Fortunately, all of her wounds were burn wounds if it were incision wounds, she would already bleed to death by now!
''What a headache¡ and¡ I ALREADY USED UP ALL OF MY RECOVERY PILLS TOO?! How great?! Sigh¡ Now, what should I do?!''
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to open her skill list window and search for some kind of healing skill like regeneration or something like that¡
She managed to find one called [Self-Healing] skill and she used one of her Skill Point to buy it from the skill list.
[You have gained Self-Healing ability!]
After observing it for a while, Tang Li Xue found that this [Self-Healing] ability effect was not that great. It only heals her about 1% of her maximum HP every 10 seconds. In other words, this skill actually heals her 497 HP every 10 seconds.
''Well¡ It is better than nothing I guess¡ Let''s move on then! I am afraid that my time is almost up!''
Tang Li Xue did not know how long she went unconscious so she decided to use her [Ethereal Form] first to get out from this safe room and see the situation outside first.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitches violently when she scanned her current surrounding and found that the sturdy safe room full of heat protection before already melted and deformed beyond recognition like now.
''It really is a wonder that I could survive under that intense me¡ I really cannot imagine it, even this thick iron room be like this!''
Tang Li Xue passed through the deformed thick iron round door and went back to the Pill Storage Room.
Like usual several Hell Hounds were patrolling around the room, twelve of them to exact since Tang Li Xue killed one of them before.
''Should I kill all of them now? With my stats increased so much, dealing with them one by one swiftly should not be a problem¡ but it would be bad if we make a loud sound or ruckus like before and¡ NO! I have a better n than that hehehe¡ let''s head back to Herb Garden first!''
Tang Li Xue decided to let them be for now and her transparent silhouette passed through the Pill Storage Room''s door easily like the fog. She was shocked to find that unlike before, many guards actually stationed outside the Pill Storage Room now to guard it.
''Dammit! Luckily, I make the correct judgment now and not make any rash move! Or it would be nasty if all of these guards rushing inside when I busying myself fighting with all of those big doggies!''
With her [Ethereal Form] along with her [Conceal] passive skill activated no one could notice her even all the guards that guarding outside the Pill Storage Room so Tang Li Xue could still move around rather easily.
Tang Li Xue ran back to the Herb Garden and fortunately, all the guards only stationed in front of the Pill Storage Room''s door and no one guarding the Herb Garden.
Tang Li Xue stood in front of the Herb Garden''s ss wall but she did not barge in recklessly like before since she was already fully aware of the dangers of the horrible nts inside.
''By the way, how could that whatever mandrake find me when I have my [Ethereal Form] and [Conceal] activatedst time?''
She thought really hard and find out there were two things that her skills cannotpletely conceal.
Intent and breathes!
If she stared at someone with intense murderous intent, there was a certain chance that someone could realize it and find her if that person was an expert. But it was impossible for those stupid nts to use this kind of advanced skill to detect her.
So the most obvious one was the other one: breaths.
Even with her [Ethereal Form] and [Conceal] activated, she still needs to breathe, right? Those mandrakes must be using this fact to track her precise location andunch that horrible scream when she stood close to it!
''So how could those mandrakes track me using my breaths? Maybe they are sensitive to the airflow near them or maybe they could detect where the amount of the oxygen around them decreasing? Whatever¡ that is not important! The point is I only need to hold my breaths when I approach themter! Hehehehe¡''
Since Tang Li Xue already knew what she needs to do, she stopped hesitating and passed through the thick ss wall.
The first nt section was the poisonous gas section nted full of the Purple Grasses!
''Let this world¡ err¡ this garden burns! Muahahaha¡''
[Fireball]!
BOOOOM~~!
Tang Li Xue''s [Fireball] skill exploded and the me started to spread around so swiftly burning the Purple Grasses into nothingness one by one!
''Eh¡ Eeeehhhh¡ Wait a minute¡ This¡ This deep blue me is pretty familiar! Eeeeeeeeeeehhhhhh!''
Yes, Tang Li Xue''s [Fireball] was no longer crimson like the Hell Hound''s version but be deep blue like the me of Pride!
Chapter 50 - 50: The True Queen of Blue Flames Birth!
Chapter 50 - 50: The True Queen of Blue me''s Birth!
The deep blue me was burning extremely fierce! Not only it spread around very fast but it also capable to burn anything into ashes in less than a second.
Strangely, Tang Li Xue did not felt hot at all even though she knew that this deep blue me emitting an extremely high temperature.
On the contrary, she felt that she actually had some kind of strange connection with this deep blue me!
Tang Li Xue concentrated her mind and she tried to control the deep-blue me make it fly toward some specific direction.
''I can''t believe it¡ it is a SUCCESS!''
The deep blue me floated on the air and formed a giant fireball then shooting toward the direction where Tang Li Xue thought!
''This is crazy! THIS BLUE FLAME¡ IS¡ SUPER¡ AWESOME! Muahahaha¡ From now on I, Tang Li Xue am the True Queen of Blue me!''
Tang Li Xue tried to control the deep-blue me once again in excitement! This time she made the deep blue me swirling around, the blue me dancing around her while she keeps giggling happily.
The scene looks astonishing beautiful but the deep blue me itself was extremely lethal and dangerous so while it dancing around, it also burned everything it touches into nothingness even the puddle and mudpletely evaporated the moment it gets close to the deep blue me!
The most bizarre thing was the deep blue me actually did not produce any smoke! It burned everything it touched into nothingnesspletely including the poisonous gas that lingering on the air!
Tang Li Xue also tried to spurt out the deep blue me from her mouth and she managed to spray it out like the methrower.
''Hmm¡ Not bad at all! Let''s call it [Fire Breath] from now on!''
Tang Li Xue also tried to shot the fireball without using her [Fireball] skill that she got from copying the Hell Hounds before and she managed to do it without any difficulty.
In fact, she only needs to focus her mind and she can easily create a fireball out of thin air! There was no need for her to imitate the Hell Hounds to open her mouth and shot the fireball out from her mouth.
''Fireball sounds somon¡ Ummm¡ My version is also a bit different from Hell Hound after all! First, I summoned my deep blue me out thenpress it down to the limit to increase its destructive power¡ so let''s just call it [Fire Bomb] from now on! Uwehehehe¡''
Tang Li Xue threw her newly made [Fire Bomb] toward the Green Seed Flower area to test it.
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM~~!
The horrible explosion urred almost in an instant, the strong shockwave hit Tang Li Xue''s tiny body, it broke her [Ethereal Form] and made her flew backward several meters! In the end, she crashed onto the thick ss wall.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue''s toughness stats already quite high so her defense also increased along with it making her body very resilient so she did not take any significant damage.
''Holysh*t! This [Fire Bomb] is amazing! As I expect from the skill I created! OH NO, THIS IS BAD! The explosion sound just now is too loud! All of those guards would certainlye here in a few seconds! Not good! I must hurry¡''
There was no need to be said anymore the Tang Li Xue''s current [Fire Bomb] power already surpassed Hell Hound''s [Fireball] by many times.
Moreover, her me of pride was the high-ranking me so whether in the terms of heat, ability, or strength, itpletely surpassed the Hell Hound''s normal me by the countless margin!
Tang Li Xue stopped ying around with her new ability and swiftly turned off her [Enhanced Sense of Hearing] passive skill to minimize the damage that she would receive from those hateful mandrakester.
Tang Li Xue felt relieved when she checked her current Health Points and find she already recovered more than half of it thanks to her [Self-Healing] skill.
''I always thought this [Self-Healing] is sucks so badly since it can only heal 1% of my HP every 10 seconds but it looks like I am too narrow-minded before. If I count carefully this [Self-Healing] skill only needs 16-17 minutes to make me fully recover from critical condition! That was freaking fastpared to any medicine!''
She activated her [Ethereal Form] back and dashed deeper toward the Herb Garden but not long after she entered the deeper area¡
"SCREEEEEEEEEEEECH!!!"
"SCREEEEEEEEEEEECH!!!"
"SCREEEEEEEEEEEECH!!!"
Tang Li Xue only felt a bit dizzy and nausea but that was all of it. Unlike before, she already turned off her [Enhanced Sense of Hearing] and made her hearing senses several notches worse.
She also has her toughness stats increased more than doubled from before, her cultivation level also increased by 5 ranks, adding her[Innate: Toughness] divine ability into the equation, these kinds of screams will never harm her mind again like before.
''Is that your best shot, little critters?! Now it''s my turn! EAT THIS! [Fire Breath]!!!''
BWOOOOOOOSSSSHHH~~!
Tang Li Xue started to spray the deep-blue me from her mouth!
Her majestic figure was like an almighty dragon from the legend, unfortunately, her tiny size ruined everything¡
''SHUT UP! It''s not my fault, okay?! Let''s speed this up! I am afraid some guards already arrive at the herb garden''s entrance!''
Her action was like a farmer spraying the pesticides in the herb farm but the me of Pride with its unmatchable lethality and the extremely high temperature was far more dangerous than any kind of pesticides! It swept everything cleanly into nothingness, even all the mandrakes that nted deeply into the ground was not spared!
The deep blue me of Pride spread more and more in the Herb Garden but it did not hinder Tang Li Xue at all since the me of Pride itself already be something like a part of her own body.
Her body already tempered by the me of Pride before andpleted its assimtion made herpletely immune to her own me; the me of pride could no longer hurt her anymore!
Tang Li Xue was moving swiftly and entered deeper into the herb garden.
She concluded that this herb garden nted severalyers of nts like mandrakes or poisonous purple grass as the defense mechanism!
The most valuable precious herbs should be nted in the center of these defensive mechanism nts!
She also concluded that the one nted all of these nts as the defense mechanism should have left one specific safe route for himself to enter the core area.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have any time to waste to find this safe route so she decided to broke through forcefully all the way into the core area using her fire-type attack!
She already thought to do so since the very start and now with the me of Pride''s help, her job became a lot easier!
Tang Li Xue almost burst outughing each time she thought that she would rob all of Elder Lin''s valuable herbs from his herb garden using his own me spirit.
Mandragora¡ ''[Fire Breath] BURNS!''
Giant Rafflesia¡. ''[Fire Breath] TURNED THEM TO DUST!''
Ghost Fungus¡ ''[Fire Breath] SEND THEM TO HELL!''
Evil Pines¡ ''[Fire Breath] DESTROY THEM ALL LEAVE NOTHING BEHIND!''
''Okay¡ cough¡ cough¡ hah, hah, hah¡ Let me¡ Let me take my¡ breathes first¡ this thing is¡ quite tiring¡''
Tang Li Xue was already panting in exhaustion, she evenmented that her [Stamina Pill] had run out just when she needs them the most right now.
As Tang Li Xue still lying breathless on the grass with her sweat keep pouring out crazily, the ground started to shook violently as if something big and heavying toward Tang Li Xue right now.
''Dammit! Can I take some rest peaceful¡ly¡ What¡ the¡ hell¡ is¡ THAT¡ THING?!''
RRROOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRRRRR~~!
Chapter 51 - 51: The Inextinguishable Flame!
Chapter 51 - 51: The Inextinguishable me!
That thing¡ or maybe that creature in front of Tang Li Xue''s eyes was a gigantic ancient tree with dense twigs and leaves. It also has several giant branches that acted as its hands while its dense robust roots that nted firmly on the ground helped it walks exactly like a giant octopus walking on the ground.
Tang Li Xue quickly activated her [Ethereal Form] back as soon as possible the moment she saw this gigantic old creature as all of her sensors screaming danger.
And¡ as Tang Li Xue expected, the moment she activated her [Ethereal Form] back countless dense sharp roots full of murderous intent shot out from underground pierced everything they touched!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue already activated her [Ethereal Form] back on time so the dense sharp roots only passed through her ethereal body harmlessly if she werete even for one second, she would be pierced over by those countless sharp roots.
''Holysh*t! What the hell are you?! I did not even bother you, right? Wait a minute..... Maybe it bes irritable because of my me?''
Tang Li Xue deduced that this old ancient tree somehow could detect that the blue me that burning its forest¡ err¡ herb garden now was actuallying from her. That was the main reason why it tried to eliminate her on sight.
''But really¡ just how vast is this f*cking herb garden is?! Rather than calling it herb garden, calling it herb forest seems more appropriate!''
Actually, it was making sense since the herb''s supplies from this herb garden were used to support the entire Asura Demon Sect''s people before. If the herb garden was too small then the herbs from this garden could only be used to support several people at most.
While keep cursing this herb garden¡ or this herb forest in her mind, Tang Li Xue tried to check the gigantic ancient tree status¡
[Species: 100,000 Years Old Ancient Treant]
[Grade: Rare]
[Level: 25]
[HP: ??????/??????]
''Damn! Its grade is the same as that fake dragon! Definitely, a tough nut to crack! It''s so troublesome to deal with it and my chance to win is also very slim. Better y safe than sorry¡ Let''s just take a bit detour¡ it cannot detect me anyway when I am still in my [Ethereal Form]!''
Actually, not only her chance to win was next to none but she was surely courting death if she tried to fight against it!
Do not look at its level only at level 25, because the grade was actually far more important than level!
No matter how high the level of [Umon] grade nt or beast, it has already fated to never win against [Rare] grade even if it only level 1.
Not to mention that the probability for [Umon] grade to possessed a divine ability was quite low, only at 10% - 15%. While [Rare] grade has more than 50% chance to get a unique divine ability.
Of course, the case of a [Common] grade creature possessed several OP divine abilities and could jump to fight the creature one higher grade than it like Tang Li Xue was a unique one and only...
But it was not entirely impossible, actually if the [Umon] grade creature could possess an OP divine ability and its opponent was the weakest kind of [Rare] grade in level 1 without any divine ability, the [Umon] grade creature also has a small chance to win although it would be an arduous fight.
RRRROOOOOAAAAAAAARRR~~!!!
The Ancient Treant became more irritated and it roared full of anger because it cannot find Tang Li Xue''s trace.
BAAAAAM¡ BAAAAAM¡ BAAAAAM¡ BAAAAAM¡ BAAAAAM¡
It started to smash everything on its sight with its gigantic branches and stomped the ground continuously made the entire herb garden trembled furiously like having the terrible earthquake.
''What a stupid nt! Is it really want to find me or make this entire herb garden copse?! Let''s just ignore it! I am afraid something bad would really happen so let''s be quick and heading to the core area!''
While taking a bit detour to avoid that stupid insane old treant, Tang Li Xue found two problems in her ability that she needs to resolveter.
First, her mind was not strong enough to support her to use her deep blue me in her [Ethereal Form]. In other words, the moment she tried to use her blue me, her [Ethereal Form] would be canceled.
Yes, she actually could use it but unfortunately, her mind was not strong enough to support it! It was as if she tried to resolve the hard math problem with her right hand while drawing aplicated blueprint with her left hand at the same time only to find she messed both of them.
The second problem was her stamina! Again, it was back to stamina!
Even though her Toughness Stats increased to almost double from before, using me of Pride drained her stamina more than she expected! In fact, it was actually far more exhausting than her [Ethereal Form]!
''Is it really normal for the me user to get exhausted so quickly?! And my [Stamina Pill] depleted when I really need it the most like now¡ sigh¡I really don''t want to rest while this gigantic insane tree still on my sight! Whatever¡ I will try to rest for a whileter after I go deeper into the core area!''
¡..
¡
.
While Tang Li Xue headed deeper into the herb garden, all the guards were already running around frantically to take water from the nearby well or bathroom to extinguish the raging me that still burning fiercely on the herb garden periphery.
"Calm down! For those with spatial ring store all of those water in the well and bring it here! You,e here! Are you stupid?! Why are you running around like a headless chicken?! Go! Find guards, disciples, or elders¡ ANYONE with ice or water type Qi and bring him here! NOW!" The guard captain did not panic even in this critical situation, he calmly shouted around, and gave hismand to all of his subordinates.
The panicked guards quickly calmed down when their captain calmly instructed them, as the veteran guards that already pass countless arduous training, they worked swiftly and efficiently.
In a few minutes, the team of the people with ice or water type Qi quickly assembled along with all of the guards with the several gallons of water inside their spatial rings.
The guard captain also knew that this deep blue me was not the normal me if not it would already be extinguished by them long ago. That was why he waited for all of these people assembled first before using the water inside the spatial rings along at the same time for the maximum effect.
"On my mark! Ready¡ GO! Release all the water! Shot all your water and ice Qi toward it!" The guard captain gave the signal and all the guards release all the water inside their spatial rings then the water type Qi cultivator controls the water and shot it all toward the deep blue me.
While the ice type Qi cultivator used all of their strength to bring the me temperature lower so it could extinguish easier with that huge amount of water!
PPPPSSSSSSSHHHHHH~~!!!
Who would have thought that the moment that huge amounts of water touched the deep-blue me all of them evaporated in an instant!
The deep blue me was not even decreasing in the slightest!
On the contrary, it was raging even more fiercely!
The high-temperature water vapor that the huge amount of water they sprayed out before even blowing back toward them made the weaker guards or disciples screaming in pain as the extremely high-temperature water vapor scorched their body!
Even the strong guard captain started to sweat profusely as the surrounding temperature keep rising sharply!
All the guards and their captain could only stare at the deep-blue me spreading rapidly and keep getting bigger each passing second.
It was as if the deep blue me was actually alive!
The noble and arrogant blue me actually stood tall and mocking them for their futile effort to extinguish it!
"Captain¡ it¡ it doesn''t work¡ at all¡ What¡ what we should do now?" The vice guard captain asked the captain with the quivering voice.
"Sigh¡ There is no other way¡ Keep repeating what we are doing before! I give the right tomand them to you for now!" The guard captain ordered then he turned around.
"But captain¡ sigh¡ Alright¡ Where do you want to go, captain?" The vice guard captain asked. In fact, he really did not want to hold the right tomand at the time like this since if something went wrong then he would be the first person that would be executed.
"I will report this to the Grand Elder!" The guard captain answered with a firm tone then used his light body techniques and dashed toward Mo Chonglin''s residence.
Chapter 52 - 52: Robbing Everything to a Heart Content!
Chapter 52 - 52: Robbing Everything to a Heart Content!
Tang Li Xue that still proceeded carefully with her [Ethereal Form] keep activating never thought that the old ancient tree was actually thest defense line for the herb garden''s core area.
''So this is another heaven beside the Pill Storage Room! This¡ This is more than I expected! I¡ I cannot ept you all¡ but since you all insist to be taken by me then I won''t be polite to you all anymore! Uwehehehehe¡ ''
Tang Li Xue cried in joy at first when she saw the rich amount of high-quality precious herbs in front of her then she started tough by herself like a maniac when dashed with her full speed toward it.
Not only the scenery here was very beautiful with golden trees, a small hill full of shining multicolor flowers, crystal mushrooms that bloom under the giant white rock, and there were even several stalks of [Seven-Colored Star Grass] nted in the shallow handmade cave.
Tang Li Xue looked at one of the golden trees then used her [Herbalism] and [Identify] skills to scan it.
[Golden Bodhi Tree]
[Function: ording to the legend, Gautama Buddha achieved his enlightenment under this tree. Increaseprehension speed by 30 times when cultivating under this tree (could only work for one week every year for one person). The Golden Bodhi Fruit from this tree could increase the overall stats and have the small chance to grant the golden body to the eater.]
''Good stuff! Tsk! If only I could bring the entire tree with me! Sigh¡ Whatever¡ the fruits are also good¡ But seriously only one fruit per tree and there are only three trees here?! Just how stinky are these trees?!''
If Elder Lin could hear what Tang Li Xue had thought, he would probably cough out several mouthfuls of blood in anger. These Golden Bodhi Trees were precious beyondpare but its fruits'' true worth also did not lose to the trees itself!
Moreover, the Golden Bodhi Trees only bear one fruit every 100 years, and to maximize its benefit, the person who consumed the fruit usually cultivate under the Golden Bodhi Tree for one week.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not know all of this and she only nonchntly plucked all the three Golden Bodhi Fruits then stuffed it inside her space pouch for now. She already decided to binge it all after she sessfullypleted her quest and went back to Xiao Hei''s room.
[Seven Elemental Flower]
[Function: Greatly increase the purity of the consumer''s Qi if the consumer ate the Seven Elemental Flower''s petal ording to their Qi element. It can be used as the side ingredient in pill concocting to enhance the sess rate of concocting that pill by 40%.]
[Side Effect: Beware! If the consumer ate the Seven Elemental Flower''s petal opposite of their own Qi element, it could make their own cultivation went chaotic or even crippled the consumer! Use it with great care!]
''This flower is basically the alchemist trump card to concoct a very precious pill! Raise the sess rate by 40%! That''s a lot! Well, even though it is useless for me but I would rather take it all rather than let that Lin Bast*rd use it to concoct his pill!''
Again she swept all of the [Seven Elemental Flower] cleanly and stuffed all of it into her space pouch!
As for [Seven-Colored Star Grass], she already knew tried its efficacy before and knew it fully well how precious these things were. She pulled it all and stored it all into her space pouch while she kept drooling at it.
Thest one was the crystal mushrooms under the giant white rock.
However, when Tang Li Xue tried to scan it with her skills¡
[?????? Mushroom]
[Function: ??????]
''What the hell?! System¡ you just need to say it if you do not know about it! Is there a need to put that many ''?'' into its descrip¡ OH MY GOD! I¡ I must be dreaming, right?! Holysh*t! I really can''t believe it!''
The one that makes Tang Li Xue''s stunned was not the crystal mushroom but the giant white rock where it grew.
[You have acquired Crystal Moon Gem!]
CRYSTAL MOON GEM!!!
AND IT WAS SUCH A HUGE ONE!!!
She thought that she would need to search up and down to every corner of the world to find it!
Who knows that she could identally stumble upon it now just like how you need the money and identally stumbled upon one million dors'' winning lottery on the way!
''Oh My God, really¡ thank you very much! Finally, heaven has its eyes opened! Of course, it would be better if you can give me a divine item that can make me directly be a deity in an instant in front of me rather than this¡''
Tang Li Xue stored giant Crystal Moon Gem along with several Crystal Mushroom into her space pouch too since she cannot use it now.
With this, almost all of the nts in the herb garden''s core area already entered her space pouch!
Tang Li Xue still stared at the three Golden Bodhi Trees full of unwillingness. She really wanted to dug the trees out and stored it too but unfortunately, it would take too much of her time to dig it out while she was actually in a rush right now!
''Sigh¡ Whatever¡ I must be hurry! I have no more spare time! My deep blue me should already create somemotion and all of those guards should be really busy to put out my me right now! This is my chance to sneak inside the Pill Storage Room once again and kill all of those annoying dogs as fast as I can while all the guards are too busy to care about it! And after that¡. Uwehehehehe¡ Is there any need to ask?''
After taking some rest to recover all of her stamina, Tang Li Xue dashed back toward the herb garden entrance following her previous track when she came here!
She also took some detour since she did not want toe across that old giant ancient tree like before!
When Tang Li Xue returned back to the herb garden''s entrance, she managed to see the crowd of guards and blue-robed inner disciples tried to extinguish her deep blue me.
''Really¡ Aren''t they too useless?! Is there really any need to gather so many people only to put out some mes? Do they really need my help to put out all of those mes? Sorry mate but I am too busy right now! There is one more room that I need to clean up! Good luck, mate! Adios! Muahahahaha¡''
Actually, it was not their fault that they cannot extinguish those deep blue mes since all of their cultivation was still at the low-rank Qi Condensation realm.
The system in the Asura Demon Sect was the same like the other sects, all the disciples need to take some missions every month and they would get Contribution Points each time theypleted their mission.
The Contribution Points were used as the currency in the sect, it could be used to buy some cultivation resources, use some cultivation grounds, or buy some martial arts.
So most of the strong disciples in Asura Demon Sect usually chose to go out toplete some missions rather than stay idle inside the sect.
In other words, only the weak inner disciples that just breakthrough from the Body Tempering Stage to Qi Condensation Stage usually stay in the sect!
As for Body Tempering Stage outer disciples, the sect only used them as the odd-jobborer and they never entered any higher up sight at all.
That was why they usually do whatever they wanted like raping and robbing from each other but not any elder would care for what they did as long as they did not start to kill each other. Even if they started to kill each other, the elder would only get angry because their blood and dead body would defile the sect ground, not because the elder really cares about their life and death.
In the sect higher up eyes, Body Tempering Stage outer disciples were dispensable.
Qi Condensation Stage inner disciples were worth nurturing but not much.
Acupuncture Opening Stage core disciples were the true genius! The ones they spent most of their effort and resources on nurturing! They usually handpicked by the elder and took the elder as their master then the elder would spend all of their effort and attention to teach and train the core disciples.
Unfortunately, since Tang Li Xue never saw these true geniuses so she started to think that these ipetent Qi Condensation Stage inner disciples were the true standard disciple of the Asura Demon Sect.

Mo Chonglin''s residence, inside Mo Chonglin''s room¡
BAAAAANG~~!
The guard captain flung several meters backward and crashed onto the door until it was crushed to pieces! His body did not slow down, it kept flying like a bullet and smashed hard onto the wall, he nted deep into the wall as several of his bones turned to dust under Mo Chonglin''s palm.
Mo Chonglin walked out from his room in rxed manner but the dangerous aura exuded from his fat body was enough to make anyone near him trembling in fear.
"USELESS TRASH! What is your use if you cannot even guard a residence properly after having that many people under yourmand?! You can''t ever put out such a useless me!" Mo Chonglin''s face turned ugly as she shouted angrily at the guard captain.
"Cough¡ Cough¡ Grand¡ Grand Elder¡ it¡ it is not¡ a normal me¡ the color is¡ deep blue¡ and¡"The guard captain tried to defend himself and exined while fresh blood keeps flowing out from his mouth.
"Wait, what did you just say?! The me''s color is deep blue?!" Mo Chonglin''s expression turned grave when he heard that and he asked again.
No one really knows what the deep blue me really was, other than Mo Chonglin since Mo Chonglin was the person that caught the me of pride by his own hand before!
Chapter 53 - 53: Fight Fire with Fire!
Chapter 53 - 53: Fight Fire with Fire!
"I will go to the herb garden to quell the me. You go to the other elders'' ce and bring all the avable elders from our side into the herb garden too! Be quick!" Mo Chonglin ordered the guard captain in one breath and his fat silhouette vanished like a passing wind from guard captain''s eyes.
The guard captain really wanted to cry but no tears came out. The injuries he got from Mo Chonglin were very severe and if he went into all of those elders'' ce then woke them up at these hours, they would bound to get angry and gave him a few hard ps.
With his current critical condition, the few hard ps from those Foundation Establishment Stage elders would probably more than enough to kill him a few more times!
Isn''t this order from Grand Elder the same as telling him to go to die?!
Unfortunately, the guard captain can only resign to his fate and went to tell all those elders now since the consequence of not obeying Grand Elder''s words was something even more frightening than death itself.¡..¡.While the guard captain went to find Xiao Hei''s fatty uncle, Tang Li Xue already sneaked back into the Pill Storage Room.
With her [Ethereal Form] activated, she easily passed through the room''s door and entered.
''Everything proceeds ording to my n! Burn the herb garden to create a diversion, robbing the most important herb in the herb garden then while all the guards are too busy trying to put out the fire and left this room unguarded, I would go back here and sweep all the pills in this room clean! Hehehehe¡''
But Tang Li Xue''sugh halted the moment she spotted the several Hell Hounds that still guarding and patrolling inside the room.
''Oh yeah¡ I almost forgot about these big doggies! Sigh¡ Oh well, let''s clean them up quickly and took all those pill bottles on the shelves before all those guards notice something wrong!''
There were twelve of the Hell Hounds left since Tang Li Xue has killed one of them before. She also did not n to fight head-on with them since it would take too much of her time! So she only had one method left to tidy them up swiftly¡ SNEAK ATTACK!
Tang Li Xue''s transparent body passed through the shelves and she went approaching the one of Hell Hound''s tail.
''You all like to y with fire, right? Then how about trying my me with your butt?!''
[Fire Breath]!
Tang Li Xue''s broke out from her [Ethereal Form] and blow out the deep blue me from her mouth!
BWOOOOOSH~~!
At first, Tang Li Xue only nned to burn the Hell Hound''s ass then slowly toying it to death but who knows that Her me of Pride was too powerful and it turned the Hell Hound into nothingness almost in an instant not even a cinder of it left!
Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva loudly as her cold sweat began pouring out.
Hell Hound maybe belonged to the weakest grade of [Umon] grade beasts and its defense was pitifully low but its HP still more than 10,000! To think that her deep blue me could finish it in one move¡
''It was really the biggest wonder for me to survive when assimting with this kind of dangerous me before!''
Then Tang Li Xue''s tiny body shuddered when she felt something inside her body conveying something to her. Something along with the lines ''Idiot! I only wanted to assimte with you, not to kill you! Your life already forfeited the moment you entered my cage if I really wanted to kill you!''
''Damn! This me is still alive inside my body?! How could this happen?!''
Tang Li Xue could felt that the me of Pride looking at her full of disdain and then it went quiet since it was toozy to care about her shock and disbelief.
However, she did not have the time to worry about that since the rest of Hell Hounds immediately sensed one of itspanions missing and they went to check it toward where Tang Li Xue still stood!
Hell Hound''s fighting prowess was not high but they have a very sharp nose! They could immediately sense one of itspanions missing from its smell thanks to their sharp sense of smell.
In fact, if Tang Li Xue did not have her [Conceal] passive skill activated all the time, she would be discovered by the Hell Hounds the moment she entered this Pill Storage Room!
Just like how Hell Hounds could detect from their sharp sense of smell, Tang Li Xue could also detect them using her [Enhanced Sense of Smell] along with her [Enhanced Sense of Hearing]!
She quickly put out some of her deep blue mes and activated her [Ethereal Form] back. Her body went back into invisible when some Hell Hounds came toward her, there was already no trace of her fighting or burn something.
''What? Looking for something? Hehehe¡ I have some surprises for you all! I hope you all like it! I call it¡ [me Arrow]!''
This was another one of Tang Li Xue''s handmade skills from her deep blue me.
All of her handmade skills have their own advantage and disadvantage so that was why she kept trying to create several of them to deal with any kind of situation.
[Fire Breath] has a terrible burning effect but did not have that much destructive power behind it.
[Fire Bomb] have an astonishing explosion effect and wide AOE (Area Of Effect) but she mustpress her deep blue me for a few seconds before she can use it.
This [me Arrow] was made from her deep blue me which condensed into a solid-state. It can be used in instant like [Fire Breath] and have high prative power but did not have as much destructive power as [Fire Bomb].
Moreover, she can condense it at the ce where she likes as long as the ce still within three meters from her.
For example, right now, Tang Li Xue came out from her [Ethereal Form] and hide behind one of the shelves. Her [me Arrow] condensed above the three clueless Hell Hounds that still busily searching for their missingpanion.
SHOU¡ SHOU¡ SHOU¡ SHOU¡ SHOU¡ SHOU¡!!!
The six long blue me arrows rained upon three Hell Hounds stabbed deep into their cranium, pierced their brains, and went out from their chin killing all three of them at once!
''Eight more to go!''
Tang Li Xue created another nine me arrows hovering above her head aimed toward her front, ready to shot any enemies that entered her sight!
Nine me arrows were her limit, she cannot create more than that with her current strength!
But she believes that in the future when her strength grows to the unimaginable level, she could create hundreds of thousands of blue me arrows at once in a single snap of her finger and she did like to see how her enemies could survive from her at that time!
Tang Li Xue killed the rest of the Hell Hounds easily with her [me Arrow] and she took all of their beast cores then stuffed it all in her space pouch.
This was also why she did not use her [Fire Breath] to kill all the Hell Hounds since the deep blue me would burn everything to nothingness including their beast cores!
It was such a waste to burn their precious beast cores! Although, she could be said to be quite rich now but it still did not give her any reason to be wasteful!
Tang Li Xue rubbed her two paws in excitement when she looked at the big storage room full of pills!
Hundreds of multilevel shelves full of the pills stored in the countless bottles!
''Just how many EXP I will get if I ate all of these pills?! No¡ No¡ I would not be able to finish it all in one or two days! All of these would probably enough for me to eat for several years!''
All the disciples in Asura Demon Sect would puke out several mouthfuls of blood if they heard Tang Li Xue''s words. The several years'' pill stock for the thousands of Asura Demon Sect''s disciples could onlyst several years for her? Just how many did you eat every time?!
Tang Li Xue did not realize that while she was still busy storing all the pill bottles in the Pill Storage Room one by one into her space pouch, Xiao Hei''s uncle already arrived at the herb garden by now!
"I will deal with this me! All of you go and activate [Profound Soul Locking Array] now!" Mo Chonglin gave the sternmand toward the chaotic crowd.
You could say that even though Mo Chonglin has a fatty body and everyone was afraid of him but he also has a huge leader charisma that could easily calm people down and made them listen to his order unconditionally.
Chapter 54 - 54: Mo Chonglin’s True Prowess!
Chapter 54 - 54: Mo Chonglin¡¯s True Prowess!
Mo Chonglin stared at the deep blue me that was burning down the herb garden with a solemn expression on his face.
At first, he did not dare to believe that the deep blue me in the herb garden was actually the high-ranking me he had given to Elder Lin before, but now he had confirmed it with his own eyes!
"It is impossible for Elder Lin to burn this Herb Garden!" Mo Chonglin held his chin and started to think.
"So the most possible scenario is the Elder Lin himself had a hard time assimting with the high ranking me I gave him before and he stored it somewhere safeter on¡ but today an intruder sneaked in and manage to tame the deep-blue me then assimte with it!" Mo Chonglin calmly deduced and said with his chilling tone.
We could see from his deduction that almost all of his guesses were actually correct, he even guesses it all in an instant! Mo Chonglin''s reputation as the most cunning and powerful Grand Elder was not only an empty title!
"What happened before it''s not important anymore!" Mo Chonglin fearlessly approached the deep-blue me and his gesture also still very rxed.
"What I need to do right now is to put out this me and lock down this cepletely! I am pretty sure that the intruder is still inside this residence or even inside this herb garden!" Mo Chonglin stared at the burning deep blue me with a gloomy expression.
"If I can catch him as soon as possible, I could still forcefully extract that high-ranking me out of his body!" Mo Chonglin sneered coldly with a hint of frightening murderous intent hidden deep inside it as he started to think about how he could torture the intruderter and made them regret it for life.
Mo Chonglin slowly raised his hand as his violent Qi made the ground in the herb garden started to tremble.
BWOOOOSSSHHH~~!
With the single wave of his hand, his surging Qi made all the deep blue mes along with the ground where it burns flew upward.
Then Mo Chonglin only made a simple grabbing gesture with his right hand and all the deep blue mes along with the soil started to swirl, in a few seconds the deep blue mes and therge amount the dirtpressed into a tiny ball.
Mo Chonglin slowly exhaled and his violent Qi quickly retracted back into his body, the tiny little ball made from the dirt and blue mes quickly crumbled into dust as the deep blue mes also died out.
If Tang Li Xue saw what Mo Chonglin did, she would be dropped her jaw in shock and trembled in fear of how powerful this Xiao Hei''s fatty uncle was!
This was the true proof that no matter how fancy or OP that ability was, it would only be a paper tiger without the true strength to back it. On the contrary, just like what Mo Chonglin did just now, true strength did not need any fancy or OP skills to show it up, it just needs a few gestures to overpower everything!
Even Tang Li Xue''s inextinguishable deep blue mes were no more than a fancy toy in front of Mo Chonglin, he could easily pinch it between his finger to put it out!
Mo Chonglin frowned while he thinks deeply. "The reason for the intruder to burn the herb garden is to get rid of all the dangerous nts intended to prevent someone from sneak in¡ OH NO! The core area! Hopefully, the guardian can hold the intruder from entering it!"
Mo Chonglin executed his wless body light techniques and his body vanished in an instant from the herb garden entrance.
His fat body did not obstruct his movement at all as he flew like a gushing wind toward the herb garden''s core area.
On his way, he also found several deep blue mes that still burning and spreading around inside the herb garden but he could easily put it out in a second.
All of these blue mes could dy him for a few seconds at most.
In a few seconds, Mo Chonglin already spotted the ''guardian'' he spoke of before. It was actually the 100,000 Years Old Ancient Treant that Tang Li Xue''s met before!
The Ancient Treant actually still roared full of anger and rampaging around aimlessly like before since it still could not find Tang Li Xue''s trace until now.
Mo Chonglin''s expression turned darker the moment he saw how the Ancient Treant''s act. It looks like he really put too much faith in this stupid thing before!
Not only it failed to stop the intruder, but it also rampaged around and ruined arge number of precious herbs and nts in the herb garden without any good reason!
Mo Chonglin''s violent Qi surged once more and he forcefully used it to suppress the Ancient Treant!
Ancient Treant''s gigantic sturdy body bent as it started to fall on the ground with a loud bang.
At first, the Ancient Treant''s anger clouded its brain but Mo Chonglin only used one move to calm it down.
He did not even need to use any of his martial art moves to defeat the strong Ancient Treant!
The Ancient Treant looked at the Mo Chonglin full of fear and terror for a moment then it did not dare to meet his gaze anymore in the end and only looked down on the ground.
Mo Chonglin was too busy to pay attention to the Ancient Treant right now. He used his full speed and made a loud sound of a sonic boom to fly directly toward the herb garden''s core area.
Unfortunately, he was still a few steps toote and Tang Li Xue already emptied the entire core area, she only leaving the three Golden Bodhi Trees behind!
Mo Chonglin could felt his blood started to rush into his head and he almost puking out several mouthfuls of blood when he saw the empty core area!
But Mo Chonglin was an old veteran strategist with cunning mind after all so he could quickly calm himself down and started to guess his opponent''s next move.
"The intruder has two options¡ one is to escape¡ the other option is to¡ OH NO! THE PILL STORAGE ROOM!" Mo Chonglin''s heart started to sank when he thought about it.
He quickly executed his peerless body light technique to perfection and dashed back toward the herb garden''s entrance!
His speed reached an unimaginable level far faster than before when he flew toward the core area. Because of how fast he moved, his fat body started to hit the wind barrier and the surrounding wind turned into the sharp razor that ready to shred him but he used his violent Qi as the barrier and forcefully increased his speed even further!
Mo Chonglin did not stop at all when he reached the herb garden''s entrance and directly heading toward the Pill Storage Room!
Mo Chonglin let his violent Qi surging out of his body made the surrounding air and atmosphere trembling slightly on its wake!
He already decided if he really finds the intruder, he would cripple all of the intruder''s limbs before capture him!
After he extracted the high-ranking me out of the intruder''s body, he would make that the intruder regret living but cannot die!
When he arrived at the Pill Storage Room, Mo Chonglin took a deep breath and he tried to open the door but since the door still locked, he forcefully breaking into the room.
Chapter 55 - 55: Dangerous Situation!
Chapter 55 - 55: Dangerous Situation!
Tang Li Xue put the pill bottles one by one on the shelves into her space pouch while humming happily.
Sometimes she would uncork one of the pill bottles and popped one pill into her mouth to taste it.
''The taste is not bad! It is a bit nd but the cool feeling that spreading in my body each time I ate one is really addictive! But it would be better if the alchemist adds some sugar and voring like cocoa or vani¡''
Despite herint, Tang Li Xue still smiled brightly when she saw her system''s notification each time she swallowed some pills.
[EXP gained!] [Strength +1]
[EXP gained!] [Strength +1]
[EXP gained!] [Strength +1]
''Muahahahaha¡ Mine! All these pills are mine!''
Driven by her greed, Tang Li Xue moved her paws even faster and shoved all the pill bottles on the multilevel shelf very swiftly into her space pouch.
In only a half an hour, she almost emptied the entire huge storage room full of pill bottles. She only needs ten minutes or so topletely cleared all of the pills stored inside this room!
''But really¡ just how big is this fake dragon''s space pouch?! I stuffed almost the entire pill bottles inside this room but it still has some space left inside this pouch! It really makes me so reluctant to return it back to the fake dragonter¡ maybe I should just¡''
Before Tang Li Xue finished her thought, her sensitive ears that already augmented by [Enhanced Sense of Hearing] skills caught something!
CLACK¡ CLACK¡
It was actually the sound of someone trying to open the locked door!
''CRAP! I still haven''t finished taking them all! What a pity¡''
Tang Li Xue stared full of aggrieved and unwillingness at the several multilevel shelves full of pill bottles that she has not touched yet.
However, Tang Li Xue still decided to activate her [Ethereal Form] and wait for the time being! He could still pick them upter after all the guards that came to check this room went back to report to their superior.
After all, the most pill bottles inside this room already went inside her space pouch. The guards would probably be shocked to death the moment they found out about this and they would need to report to their superior for further instruction.
Unfortunately, she would never guess that the oneing into this room was not the normal guards but...
BAAAAAANG~~!
Tang Li Xue was so shocked. The moment she activated her [Ethereal Form], the person in front of the door actually was not opened the door with a key like normal guards but forcefully destroy the door!
It was really lucky for her that she activated her [Ethereal Form] the moment she heard the door''s sound if not she would already be spotted by the person in front of the door.
However, Tang Li Xue''s heart almost leaped out from her throat the moment she saw the fat person entered the Pill Storage Room.
XIAO HEI''S FATTY UNCLE!
MO CHONGLIN!
Moreover, the moment Mo Chonglin entered the Pill Storage Room. He was immediately staring at the invisible Tang Li Xue that was still in her [Ethereal Form]!
Tang Li Xue shuddered in fear and terror the moment Mo Chonglin staring back at her. It was as if she was looking at the dark bottomless abyss and it also looking back at her!
There was only one word in Tang Li Xue''s mind right now!
''RUN!''
But before Tang Li Xue could turn her body and retreat, Mo Chonglin already raised his palm first.
His violent Qi burst out from his body as he waved his palm toward Tang Li Xue.
The three meters giant palm made from Mo Chonglin pure Qi mmed down on the multi-level shelf where Tang Li Xue stood.
Tang Li Xue scared out of her wits, she really wanted to jump backward to dodge it but the giant palm made from the pure QIing too fast toward her!
BBBOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!
The shelf under her feet along with all the shelves surrounding her reduced into dust.
Mo Chonglin''s attack was also leaving a deep crater on the solid ceramic tiles in the Pill Storage Room.
Luckily, Mo Chonglin''s super powerful attack ssified as a physical attack and it was not able to hurt Tang Li Xue in her [Ethereal Form]!
Mo Chonglin''s giant palm actually passed through Tang Li Xue''s transparent body and only struck at the ce where she stood up.
Of course, she was not spared out from the violent shockwave created by Mo Chonglin''s strike!
Her tiny transparent body flew backward with an amazing speed like a bullet.
With her [Ethereal Form] still activated, she passed through several walls and rooms inside the Elder Lin''s residence.
After a few seconds and her speed started to slow down, Tang Li Xue twisted her body and somersault a few times thennded gracefully on the ground.
On the contrary to everyone''s expectations, she did not feel any trauma or shock. She evenughed in disbelief.
''I¡ I can''t believe it¡ Muahahahahaha¡ I really did it! Not only I dodged it¡ I even manage to copy it!''
Copy start!
Name: [Heaven Splitting Wave (7thyer)]
Type: Martial Art Skill
Copy Completed!
Yes, the moment Tang Li Xue felt she cannot dodge it anymore; she started to focus on her [Ethereal Form] to let Mo Chonglin''s strike passed through her body while she used her [Mirror of the Moon] to copy his martial art skill!
''It actually the same martial art used by Xiao Hei before? No¡ although it feels the same but their level of mastery differ too far like heaven and earth. This fatty uncle mastery is clearly higher than Xiao Hei! This time I really hit a jackpot! Uwehehehehe¡''
Tang Li Xue''s guess was not that far off from the truth this time.
Heaven Splitting Wave was one of the secret martial arts in Asura Demon Sect. Only someone with high-status like Xiao Hei or Mo Chonglin can learn it.
Heaven Splitting Wave moves divided into nineyers in total.
The firstyer would double the user''s strength and will hit the opponent once in one move.
The secondyer would triple the user''s strength and will hit the opponent twice in one move.
The thirdyer would quadruple the user''s strength and will hit the opponent three times in one move and so on.
Moreover, eachyer could bypass the opponents'' defense by one moreyer and attack their inner organ directly.
For example, the thirdyer means that this martial art could bypass threeyers of defense like armor, barrier, Qi protection, skin, or muscles and strike the inner organ directly.
Xiao Hei only reached the 3rdyer when fighting in the Moonlight Forest before and it was already enough for him to ughter several powerhouse elders easily. He only managed to reach the 4thyer recently.
Mo Chonglin already reached the 7thyer long ago and he was only one step away from the 8thyer!
She was able to copy such an OP martial art skill in that kind of dangerous situation, really a blessing in disguise! It was not wrong for Tang Li Xue to say that she got a jackpot.
Tang Li Xue''s heart still palpitated in fear though.
''It was such a close call! If he attacked me with an elemental attack back then¡ I would really be turned into a meat paste! Sigh¡ It looks like the situation is not looking good! To be exact, it already worsened so badly! Should I retreat first or keep pushing forward to find Elder Lin''s room?''
But she also realized if she retreated today, she would not have any more chance toplete her quest anymore since Xiao Hei''s uncle would probably move Elder Lin to the secret safer ce.
In the end, Tang Li Xue could only grit her teeth and decided to find Elder Lin.
She did not know what kind of punishment she would get if her quest failed and she also did not want to try it!
What if the punishment was the system would be taken back from her! It would be toote even if she criedter!
''Let''s find Elder Lin''s room and finish this mission as soon as possible before the situation turned even worse!''
It was a gamble!
Whether the Xiao Hei''s uncle finds her first or she finds the Elder Lin first!
Chapter 56 - 56: Countdown!
Chapter 56 - 56: Countdown!
After throwing such a lethal strike toward Tang Li Xue, Mo Chonglin that still inside the Pill Storage Room frowned as he inspected the ce where he attacked before.
"There is really nothing here?" Mo Chonglin murmured to himself full of doubt.
In fact, Mo Chonglin did not attack Tang Li Xue because he could see or trace her but because his sharp instinct that he already honed through countless life and death situations detected that someone actually staring at him from where Tang Li Xue stood up.
He already checked the entire Pill Storage Room with his divine sense the moment he entered it but he cannot find anything. However, Mo Chonglin never doubted his own instinct since it already saved his life so many times before so he attacked without any hesitation but now he did not find anything at all!
Mo Chonglin could only shake his head and decided to not think too much about it for now.
He started to observe every corner of the Pill Storage Room to find any clue but he could only find that almost all of the pill bottles inside this storage room stolen! The thief was actually only leaving several shelves full of pill bottles!
Mo Chonglin gnashed his teeth in intense anger and hatred toward this troublemaker intruder and thief!
Mo Chonglin was afraid that the intruder would escape immediately if the [Profound Soul Locking Array] still not activated yet so he nned to help the control room to activate it as soon as possible but before he coulde out of the Pill Storage Room, hismunication talisman trembled slightly!
Communication talisman''s function was the same as the mobile phone in the modern world; it was tomunicate with other people from several hundred miles away.
From hismunication talisman, Mo Chonglin discovered that several elders from his faction already came and waited for him at the herb garden entrance.
Mo Chonglin once again executed his peerless body light technique and dashed toward the herb garden entrance.
All the elders waiting there saluted Mo Chonglin the moment he arrived in front of them but he did not have any time or mood to hear for their ttery words so he immediately gave them his order.
"Elder Luo, use your Demonic Insect Technique and spread all of your Poisonous Bees to monitor every corner of all rooms! Make sure not to leave any blind spot!" Mo Chonglin sternly ordered the skinny elder.
"Understood!" The skinny elder answered without any expression on his face.
"Elder Shi, did you bring your Fortune Telling Scroll?" Mo Chonglin asked the old elder.
"Yes, Grand Elder! I always bring it with me!" The old elder took out a dpidated scroll from his spatial ring.
"I don''t care how much it costs! I want you to use your irvoyant Technique to find the thief no matter where he is! Is that clear?" Mo Chonglinmanded the old elder with a solemn tone.
"Leave it to me, Grand Elder!" The old elder nodded toward Mo Chonglin full of respect.
"Elder Fan and Elder Lu can go to the control room to active [Profound Soul Locking Array] as soon as possible! You two can go now!" The two elders'' figures immediately vanished the moment Mo Chonglin gave his words.
"The other elders spread out and patrolling around the residence but don''t forget to keepmunicating with Elder Luo and Elder Shi! I want you all to catch this intruder dead or alive! No matter what kind of method you will use, I will approve it!" Mo Chonglin said again to all elders with a stern tone.
After giving all of his orders, Mo Chonglin finally remembered about Elder Lin that still closed-door in secret room busily concocting pills for his faction.
In this matter, Mo Chonglin really had a real headache!
The sess rate of an alchemist on concocting pills depends on many factors but the most important one was the alchemist mentality.
If the alchemist was concocting pills under the huge stress and frustration, his sess rate would drop so much that the probability of some ident would happen was extremely high.
For Mo Chonglin, that high-ranking me was no more than a fancy toy since he was already invincible under the Nascent Soul Stage now, adding high-ranking me would do nothing more than icing on the cake to him.
But it was different for Elder Lin!
Elder Lin already stuck at advance-grade alchemist for far too long! If he managed to assimte with high-ranking me, he would be able to advance to master-grade alchemist or even grandmaster-gradeter!
If Elder Lin knew he loses his high-ranking me tonight, he would not only be in great stress and frustration, Mo Chonglin was sure that Elder Lin would probably go crazy in an instant!
Mo Chonglin can only try to hide it from Elder Lin for now until he can catch the intruder and extract the high-ranking me back from the intruder''s body!
"All of you be sure to not disturb Elder Lin in the secret room! Also do not tell him anything about what happens here to him even if he asks about it!" Mo Chonglin used hismunication talisman and ordered all the elders thating here just now.
All the elders were really experienced and they far more capable than all the guards and disciples from before.
[Profound Soul Locking Array] that troubled so many guards and disciples before could easily be deployed by the two elders in just a few seconds from the control room!
The blinding golden light shone like a sun and a thin golden film started to enveloped Elder Lin''s residence like a giant golden cocoon.
A countless dense golden tiny runes started to fill the entire thin golden film sealed the entire giant golden cocoon tightly to made sure that no one inside can go outside as long as the array still activated.
Of course, that was not all of it, the reason why it called ''Soul Locking'' would immediately be felt by the people that did not hold a special badge inside this array!
¡..¡.When the [Profound Soul Locking Array] activated, Tang Li Xue already almost exploring the entire residence but she still cannot find Elder Lin at all.
''Crap! I really miscalcted it this time! If that Elder Lin went hiding in another ce or secret shelter where I cannot find him, all of my work tonight would be in vain!''
Tang Li Xue''s face turned dark as she quickened her searching pace in panic and at that moment [Profound Soul Locking Array] truly taking effect.
Her mind and body started to move sluggishly as she was assaulted by terrible drowsiness!
''How could this happen so suddenly?! Dammit! Don''t tell me this is because of those¡''
Tang Li Xue''s tiny body shuddered in fear and panic as she looked outside from the tiny window gap at one of the guest rooms. She knew from looking at the golden wall outside the residence that Xiao Hei''s fatty uncle should be activated some terrible formation to trap her inside here.
But when she remembered that she still had her [Greater Lucky Sticker] inside her inventory system, she quickly calmed down.
Now she really had no way to retreat anymore!
Her only choice was to find Elder Lin and user her [Bad Luck Sticker] to mess him up once and for all!
Looking at the [Lucky Sticker]''s effect before, this [Bad Luck Sticker] should be more or less have the same power but it will bring disaster to the person she sticks it instead of good luck!
At that time, she really did want to see if Xiao Hei''s uncle still chose to catch her or save that Elder''s Lin alive first!
Chapter 57 - 57: Hide and Seek!
Chapter 57 - 57: Hide and Seek!
For the first time after she entered this Elder Lin''s Residence, Tang Li Xue actually had a hard time moving around even with her [Ethereal Form] activated!
''Aiiisss¡ this quest would really kill me this time! Moreover, what''s wrong with all these old men?! How could they know I am staring at them?''
Tang Li Xue once again passed through the wall slowly but she only let her heading out from the wall to peek at the elder that still stood in the long corridor and just like before the elder actually turned his body and stared back at her!
Tang Li Xue quickly retreated back from the wall in panic while cursing at the elder in her mind!
After thinking for a while, Tang Li Xue finally managed to get some gist about what happened.
''I think¡ Xiao Hei''s uncle or this elder cannot actually see or track me at all! They could only roughly sense me only when I looking at them!''
''All of these elders have high cultivation so their instinct should be really sensitive to someone''s probing at them. They would be able to immediately know if someone is looking at them as long as they concentrate. The ce where I am staring at would have a response as if they are being poked by someone with a needle. The same thing should have happened when I met with that Xiao Hei''s uncle before. ''
When Tang Li Xue still thinking deeply, a swarm of poisonous bees entered the room where she was in and started to spread out as if searching for something. Seeing how many they were inside the room, Tang Li Xue started to shudder in fear and she decided to move to another room.
Who knows that the other room''s situation was also the same! The swarm of poisonous bees already filled every corner of rooms!
''Dammit! Is there no other safe ce for me to hide anymore?!''
Tang Li Xue did not know that at this time one of the Elders started to use his irvoyant technique to peek at her location precisely!
Of course, this kind of miraculous spell not only has a great effect but also needs a very heavy price to pay each time the user activates it!
In this case, the elder actually sacrificed ten years of his longevity when he activated his irvoyant technique to find Tang Li Xue!
The elder bit the tip of his finger and drop his blood essence to the top of his Fortune Telling Scroll and started to chant some abstruse words while keep making several different kinds of hand seals.
Not long after the Fortune Telling Scroll started to shine and there was actually a picture of the room that appeared on the scroll that was previously empty!
"He is on the south terrace! But be careful! I don''t see him in the picture at all so he probably using some kind of spell or treasure to make himself invisible! Just use your tracking powder to mark him down!" The elder''s face turned a bit pale after he used the irvoyant technique but he still used hismunication talisman to tell the other elders about what he finds.
In a few seconds, several elders broke into the south terrace and started to throw their tracking powder everywhere but they still cannot find anything.
Well¡ Actually, Tang Li Xue was not even in that room anymore since she started to take a bit detour to the southwest of the residence so she already used her [Ethereal Form] to pass through the wall and headed there.
"Elder Shi! There is nothing in this room! Are you sure he really is in this room before?" One of the elders pissed off and asked.
"Is there really no one?! Impossible! Wait for a few seconds, I will use my irvoyant Technique again to check it." Elder Shi bit his finger again and drop it into his scroll once again.
"He is in the dining room now! Hurry!"
"F*ck! There is nothing here! Elder Shi, you are not pranking us, aren''t you?!"
"I am not! Maybe you are too slow and he already escaped first! Wait for a moment¡ he is in the bathroom now!"
"ELDER SHIIIIII! I have it enough with you! There is nothing here!"
"Eh¡ I swear he is really in there before! Uh¡ He is inside the guest room now¡"
"ELDER SHIT! You really take me for a fool! Guest room entrance and bathroom entrance are in the opposite direction! Unless if that intruder could teleport or make the hole in the wall then he won''t be able to go there!"
"But my scroll shows that¡ wait what did you just call me?!"
.....
...
.
While all the elders frantically searching for her, Tang Li Xue kept herself busy exploring around.
Now she already knew how to avoid being detected by those elders, she could move around more easily.
''Since they could track me if I looking at them then I just need to close my eyes every time I meet with them and change my direction for a bit! Hehehe¡With my [Ethereal Form] activated taking some detour is not a problem at all!''
Now Tang Li Xue only had two major problems.
First, this [Profound Soul Locking Array] kept attacking her mind and made her getting even drowsier every second.
Second, she already explored all of the rooms in this residence but still had not found Elder Lin at all!
Tang Li Xue did not know whether Elder Lin already in the secret room since the very start and that was why she cannot find him until now or her luck was so bad that she cannot find Elder Lin until now and Xiao Hei''s uncle evacuated him into a secret ce just recently.
But Tang Li Xue concluded that Elder Lin was actually still in this residence! It was just that she still cannot find any trace of him until now.
Why was she so sure about this? It was because Xiao Hei''s uncle was here and he even brought all of those elders here!
Tang Li Xue opened the residence''s blueprint that her [Mapping] skill made in her mind and started to analyze where the secret room would be.
''...¡. Nope¡ No clue at all...¡ Argh! So frustrating! Is there no other way to find that sucker?! And this formation array is really killing me! So sleepy! But if I oversleep here I would be really dead for sure!''
''Eh¡wait a minute! The formation array!!!''
Tang Li Xue started to imagine the [Profound Soul Locking Array]''s giant cage as arge circle that covered the entire residence and she started to look for the center of the array.
''The center of this array should be the array''s eye! The ce where this array first activated! The array control room! But since I cannot find it even after I explored all corners of this residence then it should be where the secret room should be!''
''The array control room should be a quite important ce and Elder Lin''s secret room should be located there too! Probably¡ maybe¡ well, let''s just pray I guess it correct this time!''
After calcting several times to pinpoint the exact location, Tang Li Xue finally manage to narrow it down to one location. It was actually at the parlor!
Although, she did not know where the secret room entrance really was, at the very least she knew she could enter it from parlor!
Tang Li Xue started to dash toward parlor and each time she met with some elders on the way, she quickly closed her eyes and passed through them easily.
After she arrived at the parlor, she did not waste any of her time and started searching for the secret room''s entrance but she did not dare to cancel her [Ethereal Form] at all so she could only poke her transparent body around, passed through the wall here and there.
Unfortunately, she still cannot find the entrance at all even after wasting more than half an hour of her time!
''Wait a minute¡ why I always think that the entrance should be above the ground! Let''s see¡''
Tang Li Xue stuck her transparent head into the ground and with her [Ethereal Form], her head passed through the hard floor as she started to walk around the parlor once again.
''Bingo!''
Tang Li Xueughed as she manages to find the stone staircase under the cold floor of the parlor!
Chapter 58 - 58: Decisive Battle!
Chapter 58 - 58: Decisive Battle!
There should be some kind of switch to open the secret path under the parlor that leading to the underground tunnel.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not need to waste her time to find this hidden switch since she can easily pass through the parlor''s solid floor with her [Ethereal Form] and jumped down to the underground staircase.
Tang Li Xue walked down the staircase full of vignce but she did not worry too much since she still keeps her [Ethereal Form] activated along with her [Conceal] passive skill, even a ghost would probably not be able to notice her.
The underground tunnel was not dark at all. There were many torches illuminating along the way.
After walking for several minutes, Tang Li Xue found three doors made from some special kind of wood at the end of the underground tunnel.
Tang Li Xue could sense a great energy undtioning out from the left door. She also felt a scorching heating out from the right door. Only the center door did not emit anything out.
Tang Li Xue tried to poke her transparent body into the center door out of curiosity and her tiny furry head easily passed through the center door.
¡..
¡
.
"This is impossible! How could my irvoyant technique be wrong?! Impossible¡ I¡ I must try it again!" The old elder with unkempt hair muttered with his bloodshot eyes.
"Elder Shi, just give it up! You already waste so much of your life span for this!" Elder Luo that was still busy controlling his poisonous bees with his Demonic Insect Technique advised.
Elder Fan and Elder Lu tried to stifle theirughter as they continuously used their Qi to control the [Profound Soul Locking Array]''s core at the center of the room.
But Elder Shi knew if he stopped here right now then he would be aughing stock to the entire Asura Demon Sect and all the elders in the sect would point their finger at him whileughing and mocking him!
"Just once more then! Believe me, this time my irvoyant technique would not go wrong!" Elder Shi said while gritted his teeth.
He took out the sharp knife and cut his own wrist. His blood started to pour out like a fountain wetting the entire Fortune Telling Scroll red.
Elder Shi determined to sacrifice 50 years of his own life span at once this time! In his eyes, this was a necessary move to recover his pride!
The blurry picture in the Fortune Telling Scroll became clearer and clearer as Elder Shi chanted his spell continuously.
Looking at how serious Elder Shi was, the three elder peek at the Fortune Telling Scroll''s picture and stunned silly by it.
"Eh¡ isn''t this room seems really familiar?" Elder Fan frowned and asked.
"Hm¡ It''s Array Control Room. This is where we are now." Elder Luo said with a t tone but even the serious expressionless elder like Elder Luo almost cannot hold back hisughter this time.
"Pfffft¡ Bwahahahaha¡ Elder Shi, oooh, Elder Shi! What now? You want to say that the intruder is among one of us now?! Really¡ Your irvoyant skill is really good! But only for making a joke! Bwahahahaha¡." Elder Fan and Elder Lu was alreadyughing out loud uncontrobly while holding their stomach. They even almost broke the [Profound Soul Locking Array] that they maintain right now because of it.
Elder Shi''s consciousness turned blurry as he started to wobble around like a drunken person.
The irvoyant technique was his prideful technique and he already used it many times to track countless Asura Demon Sect''s enemies and it never fails before but now¡ he almost puking his liver out because if it!
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue slowly drew back her head from the center door. The cold sweat began to pour out from her forehead.
''The heck¡ There are four powerful elders here! Fortunately, they are too busy with their own business to notice me or I definitely would not be able to leave here alive even with my [Ethereal Form]!''
Tang Li Xue looked at the left door where the great energy emitted out. She deduced that it should be the energy room since to keep [Profound Soul Locking Array] activated, it would need arge amount of energy and all of it should being from this room.
There should be countless precious materials, pills, or even miraculous herbs inside but Tang Li Xue cannot shake away the extreme danger she felt from this room!
To enter or not...
Tang Li Xue inhaled deeply and decided to y safe and ignore the left room since her harvest this time already very bountiful.
Greed was good and nothing was wrong with having excessive greed but the sense of appropriateness should be keep maintained! Especially in this kind of dangerous situation! Blinded by greed at this kind of situation would easily make any person died without himself knowing!
Tang Li Xue did not know that her decision this time actually saved her life!
She was right, the left door was full of priceless treasures but someone she knew very well already predicted that she woulde here and already waiting for her inside!
Mo Chonglin opened his chilling eyes and stared at the door in front of him. He would never think that Tang Li Xue''s main target was not actually pills, herbs, or treasures but Elder Lin so he predicted she woulde here to steal everything that was why he already waited here all this time to catch her.
Moreover, with [Profound Soul Locking Array] activated, the intruder cannot escape so he must break the array first. There were four elders guarding at Array Control Room so Mo Chonglin doubted the intruder had enough guts to enter it and destroy the array''s eye.
The other option was to enter this room and disabled the [Profound Soul Locking Array] energy supply! So the intruder not only could steal the precious treasures, but he could also cripple the array to escape if he sneaked into this room! This was why Mo Chonglin was guarding this energy room personally.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not enter or peek into this room at all so he did not sense anything so he closed his squinted eyes once again waiting for the intruder toe in.
Tang Li Xue decided that she would enter the right door that emitting the scorching heat from it!
Elder Lin was an alchemist and his job should be concocting pills all day. Tang Li Xue concluded that this room where Elder Lin was! Since if Elder Lin was not here, she would be totally at loss for where he would be.
Normally, Tang Li Xue should not be able to pass this high-temperature door since her [Ethereal Form] was weak against heat and cold but now he already became resistant to heat after assimting with me of Pride before, so her invisible body could easily pass through the hot door without her feeling anything at all.
Just like what Tang Li Xue guessed before, Elder Lin was really inside this room and he was still busily concocting the pills with his golden cauldron now!
Tang Li Xue licked her lips in excitement. Finally, she managed to find this old man after going through all of these hardsh.i.p.s!
Her mind started spun to think some strategies really fast¡
Elder Lin still put all of his concentration on concocting pills and not realized her presence at all now.
His big golden cauldron keeps rotating on mid-air as Elder Lin keeps making different hand gestures to control the green me below the golden cauldron carefully.
Should she stick her [Bad Luck Sticker] into him and escape? Doing only that after passed through all of that trial and tribtion made her feels tasteless and unhappy!
Then Tang Li Xue''s sharp eyes that already strengthened by [Enhanced Sense of Sight] spotted a silver ring on Elder Lin''s finger.
Spatial ring!
''As a renowned alchemist from a big sect like Asura Demon Sect, he should be quite loaded! Moreover, he should be received a huge reward and payment for joining Xiao Hei''s uncle faction! Yooosh¡ Let''s go! Stick my [Bad Luck Sticker] onto him then steal his spatial ring as my souvenir!''
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate any longer as she used all of her strength to jump toward Elder Lin''s head!
''Take this and feel all the misfortune from my previous life, you a*shole!''
Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form] immediately the moment she almost touched the Elder Lin''s head.
BAAAANG~~!
Tang Li Xue pped the back of Elder Lin''s head hard with her [Bad Luck Sticker] made it stuck on Elder Lin''s back head!
"OUUUCCHHH¡ WHO''S THERE?! HOW DARE YOU DISTURB ME?!" Elder Lin shouted out full of anger.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue already knew that all of these underground rooms were soundproof so she did not panic at all! Even if Elder Lin was wailing loudly, no one would hear anything outside.
With her light tiny body, Tang Li Xuended gracefully on the top of Elder Lin''s right shoulder and she swiftly ran along his right arm and bit his finger off with her [Rip] skill!
Normally, this skill was enough to take the person''s finger off but Elder Lin''s cultivation was at the same level at the other elders, he already reached Foundation Establishment Stage so she cannot cut it off with her sharp fang but at least she sessfully took his spatial ring from his finger!
''YES! SUCCESS! Now let''s take a strategic retreat!''
However, Elder Lin would not let Tang Li Xue off so easily! He immediately caught her tail the moment she jumped off from his right wrist!
Tang Li Xue tried to activate her [Ethereal Form] but she has almost despaired when she finds out that she cannot activate it now!
''DAMMIT! WHY?!''
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to realize why she cannot use her [Ethereal Form] the moment Elder Lin grabbed her tail. It was because Elder Lin was currently wearing a special kind of gloves!
It was actually a pair of gloves that emitting an icy aura, he used it to cool down the finished pills he grabs but now it actually prevented Tang Li Xue from using her [Ethereal Form] to escape!
Chapter 59 - 59: KABOOM!
Chapter 59 - 59: KABOOM!
''RELEASE ME NOW!!!''
Tang Li Xue screamed in her mind full of rage and at that moment¡ she could faintly feel something inside her calling her ''fool''.
BWOOOSH~!
The scorching deep blue me exploded out from her body shrouded her tiny body like a beautiful cape.
Unfortunately, the deep blue me cloak cannot hurt Elder Lin at all since he wore the icy gloves to protect his hand from heat plus his high cultivation already reached Foundation Establishment Stage.
However, Elder Lin still loosened his grip on Tang Li Xue''s tail in the end, not because the deep blue me hurt his palm but because he recognized that deep blue me very well and the reality hit him hard made his face pale in an instant.
"IMPOSSIBLE! THAT¡ THAT IS MY¡ MY HIGH-RANKING FLAME! HOW COULD YOU¡" Elder Lin shouted in disbelief while staggering a few steps behind.
Tang Li Xue would not let this chance slipped, not only she escaped from Elder Lin''s grip, she even used the [Heaven Splitting Wave (7thyer)] that she copied from Xiao Hei''s uncle before and struck Elder Lin''s chest with it.
Different from Mo Chonglin''s Heaven Splitting Wave, Tang Li Xue''s version condensed the energy in the form of a paw instead of a palm.
BOOOOOOOMMMM~~!
[Heaven Splitting Wave (7thyer)] could bypass 7yers of defense and struck the inner organ directly with eight times of the user''s strength!
Elder Lin''s cultivation might be at Foundation Establishment Stage but he attained it because he continuously took precious pills to breakthrough instead of training in martial arts so he was indeed far weaker than the other elders that focused on training martial arts.
Tang Li Xue''s [Heaven Splitting Wave (7thyer)] struck Elder Lin''s crotch like a heavy hammer!
Yes, Tang Li Xue''s Heaven Splitting Wave hit Elder Lin''s crotch!
Actually, it was an ident since her body size differs too much with Elder Lin. She should aim a bit upward if she wanted to aim at Elder Lin''s chest but Tang Li Xue shot her skill straight without any thought.
However, Tang Li Xue would never think that it would work strangely well!
If she aimed at Elder Lin''s chest, he would probably only received some superficial internal injuries and cough out a few mouthfuls of blood since Tang Li Xue''s [Heaven Splitting Wave (7thyer)] already weakened so much because it already adjusted ording to her current strength.
But now? Elder Lin''s manhood was most probably crippled once and for all! Even his pair of eggs definitely shattered to dust by Tang Li Xue''s prative attack.
Elder Lin was rolling on the ground pitifully while holding on his crotch! He did not even have any strength to scream or wail anymore.
His mouth only opened and closed without any soundsing out, even his eyes also started to roll up onto the back of his head.
''Damn! Like what my big brother in previous life teach me: ''If some pervert tried to molest you, just kick at their crotch as strong as you can!'' I never thought that the effect would be this awesome!''
Was this the [Bad Luck Sticker]''s power? Tang Li Xue also did not know for sure¡
''Ok¡ that''s enough for now it''s time for my tactical retreat!''
Tang Li Xue turned around and wanted to dash as fast as she could toward the steel door but before she could do that¡ the pinky-sized me of Pride actually fly out from her dantian and headed to the green me below the golden cauldron!
''OI¡ OOIII¡ OOOOIIIIIII! What are you doing?! Where are you going now?! SHIT! Should I run away now by myself or wait for that reckless me to finish its business? Dammit! Let''s wait for a minute then¡ just one minute!''
Even though she thought she wanted to leave it in one minute or so, Tang Li Xue actually did not want to abandon this OP blue me at all after knowing how strong this me was and it only still in embryo! She cannot even imagine the extent of its true strength once it reaches its peak form.
The pinky-sized me of Pride actually really started to devour the mysterious green me with the size many times bigger than itself!
Tang Li Xue even dropped her jaw in shock as she watched the bizarre scene in front of her eyes.
But she quickly regained her vignce and turned her head to observe Elder Lin''s movement!
She decided if Elder Lin makes a sudden move or dash toward her, she would immediately activate her [Ethereal Form] and exit from this room. Anyway, the steel door was only a half-meter away from her.
However, Tang Li Xue once again found something strange happening in front of her eyes!
Elder Lin''s body started to shriveled very quickly, before this Elder Lin looked like 30-35 years old middle-aged man but now he looked like someone 60 years old and he still keeps getting older and older!
Tang Li Xue looked back at where her me of Pride was and noticed that the big mysterious green me already shrunk to fist-sized!
me of Pride stopped absorbing the mysterious green me after it shrunk to fist-sized, while the me of Pride''s size itself grown into thumb-sized.
Tang Li Xue thought it was already full and told it to get back to her so they can escape together!
But the thumb-sized me of Pride actually had its own evil n!
The me of Pride really hated Elder Lin for forcing it to assimte with him and confined it in such a small room for many days!
So now it started to force Elder Lin''s mid-ranking me, the mysterious green me to self-destruct!
me of Pride already fully assimted with Tang Li Xue so she could clearly felt its thought!
''OH NO! This shitty me is insane! F*CK! I don''t want to be buried alive in here!''
Although, the mysterious green me already weakened because me of Pride already devoured most of its strength but it still connected to Elder Lin''s cultivation so its explosion would not be too low and they still in the underground tunnel after all!
"D¡ O¡NOT¡" Elder Lin tried to stop it but his legs still limp so he could only crawl slowly toward the furnace.
This time Tang Li Xue did not dare to dy it anymore and activated her [Ethereal Form] swiftly!
She used her [Sprint] and dashed with her full speed toward the steel door but the me of Pride actually moved faster than her.
It already flew back to her and entered her body then settled quietly at her dantian like before. It even started to excitedly refine all the energy it devoured from Elder Lin''s mysterious green me.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have any time to scold or cursed at the deep-blue me inside her now. Her tiny transparent body easily passed through it but she still did not dare to stop at all!
KAAAAAAABBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!!!
The terrifying explosion really happened inside the Elder Lin''s room, the horrible green me started to blow everything to pieces including all the walls and steel door!
The ground shook violently along with the tunnel walls and ceiling then the giant cracks started to spread everywhere inside the underground tunnel!
Chapter 60 - 60: Perfect Evaluation
Chapter 60 - 60: Perfect Evaluation
Tang Li Xue could clearly hear some screams from the room next to the Elder Lin''s room but she did not care about it and keep charging toward the end of the tunnel.
Without even turning her head, Tang Li Xue could clearly felt the scorching temperatureing closer from behind her!
It seems even though Tang Li Xue immune toward the me of Pride''s heat because of their assimtion but it did not mean that she immune toward another kind of me too!
If the mysterious green me that chasing behind her managed to crash into her, she would definitely be a baked fox!
''NUUUUUUOOOOOHHHHH¡ Faster! Faster! I don''t want to be buried here alive!''
After the cracks spread along the underground tunnel, the solid ceiling and walls started to copse down. The dusty sand and rocks started to fell as the tunnel began to fell apart!
Luckily, Tang Li Xue with her [Ethereal Form] still fully activated clearly was not affected by the stones and soil that raining down from above.
Countless debris started to block her way but she did not dare to slow down at all as her transparent silver silhouette kept passing through all of them like a passing wind!
But the fierce green mes did not slow down at all! On the contrary, it kept getting closer and closer to her from behind.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and she tried to increase her speed more when she saw the light which signaling that she was near the end of this underground tunnel.
BOOOOOOOOOOM~!
Tang Li Xue jumped out from the underground tunnel in time when the destructive green mes explode the tunnel entrance to pieces!
Just when Tang Li Xue thought everything was over and she slumping onto the cold parlor floor while panting heavily, the wide giant cracks started to spread out to the entire parlor floor!
The cracks started to spread from the floor then onto the wall and finally reached the residence''s ceiling too!
''OH, NO! THIS LOOKS BAD! RUUUUUN!''
She did not even have any time to sigh in relief or rest to take some breath but the entire building already started to copse!
But luckily the annoying [Profound Soul Locking Array] that locked the entire residence before was already gone maybe because the underground tunnelpletely copsed so the one controlling the entire array was also buried alive there.
Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] also started to crumble since her stamina cannot support it anymore while this parlor located at the center of this residence so if she wanted to exit from this building, she must run quite far!
Tang Li Xue''s stamina already squeezed dry and she even felt her consciousness started to turn blurry but she did not stop and keep running as her life depended on it!
She jumped with all of her strength and used her body to break the parlor''s window then ran toward the courtyard.
''I cannot activate my [Ethereal Form] for now so it would be quicker if I run on the roof rather than run through the rooms one by one!''
Tang Li Xue no longer hesitated and opened her skill list window to upgrade her [Jump] skill!
[Jump skill already reached Mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to High Jump with cost 3 Skill Points?]
''ACCEPT!''
[Jump ability upgraded to High Jump ability!]
Tang Li Xue used her [High Jump] immediately and leaped toward the roof!
BOOOM¡ BOOOM¡ BOOOOM!
The copsing building started to spread out like domino, looked at that Tang Li Xue also did not dare to stay here anymore and running at the top of the roof toward the opposite direction.
''UUOOOOHHHH¡ I am already dead tired! Just how far this copse will continue?!''
Just when the copsing building almost caught up to her, the me of Pride inside Tang Li Xue finally became a bit sensible and started to support her with its own strength though Tang Li Xue swore she could hear someone scoffing at her just then.
The deep blue mes begin to spread out on Tang Li Xue''s four limbs and her running speed rose exponentially.
''WOOOAAAH¡ This skill is awesome!''
She nimbly jumped from one building to another while her speed kept increasing leaving only deep blue ze on her trail. Her movement was so fast like a sh of blue lightning passing by.
It did not take her long before she manages to leave Elder Lin''s residence but she still did not let her guard down and keep dashing toward Xiao Hei''s ce with her current unbelievable speed.
But when she almost arrived back at Xiao Hei''s courtyard¡
Ding!

''Fiuuuh¡ Atst, my quest finallypleted! And¡ I even reached the peak of the Body Tempering Stage! Hehehehe¡ Finally, I can awaken my martial soul!''
''Moreover, I get perfect evaluation and bonus reward! What is this [Premium Weapon Chest]? Whatever¡ I will think about all of that tomorrow! I am too tired and sleepy now!''
Tang Li Xue dragged her limp body and pushed the door then entered Xiao Hei''s room.
Fortunately, Xiao Hei was very sensible and he did not lock the door if not, Tang Li Xue would not be able to enter the room since she can''t activate her [Ethereal Form] for now.
She jumped up onto thefortable bed and snuggled to Xiao Hei''s warm body before she immediately fell asleep.
On the contrary, Xiao Hei who already fell in deep sleep awoke and became alert when he felt something soft and smelly moved to the top of his body.
Xiao Hei''s mouth twitched when he saw Tang Li Xue slept on the top of him with her body covered with dirt, char, and dried blood.
She smelt so bad that Xiao Hei almost kicked her away from his body out of reflex.
It should be known that before Xiao Hei met Tang Li Xue, he actually had an acute mysophobic.
But it diminished greatly after he met Tang Li Xue and brought her back into his home then started to sleep together with her.
Xiao Hei started to think if he should throw her into the hot bath and scrub her cleanly right now but he did not have the heart to do it when he saw her exhausted tiny body.
"Sigh¡ Just this once, Xiao Bai! Just this once¡" Xiao Hei pet Tang Li Xue''s soft tiny body for a while then pulled his nket to cover her before went back to sleep.
Actually, Xiao Hei already knew what happened tonight very well but he pretended to not know about it at all.
What a joke! His uncle schemed with Elder Lin to harm him but now he must help them catch the intruder? Never!
That was why he still stayed on his bed and pretended to be in deep sleep even with all of thosemotions happened outside.
Of course, he still did not know that the one caused all of thosemotions outside actually sleepfortably on the top of him right now.
¡..
¡
.
Xiao Hei woke up very early in the morning but Tang Li Xue still fast asleep on the bed.
Xiao Hei actually wanted to bath Tang Li Xue first before going to work but since she still sleeps sofortably on the bed, he could only give up for now and prepare some roasted meat for her breakfast.
Tang Li Xue slept for so long and only woke up until the afternoon.
''Waaahh¡ My favorite roasted meat! Dayummm¡ As This Queen expected from her favorite concubine! So thoughtful! It''s not futile that This Queen took revenge for you yesterday!''
After she finished all of her favorite roasted meat, Tang Li Xue started to check her current status¡

Chapter 61 - 61: Bountiful Harvest!
Chapter 61 - 61: Bountiful Harvest!
''Eh¡ Special skill? Fire Breath¡ Fire Bomb¡ So this is my handmade skill when I am using me of Pride¡ Fire Dash? Oooh¡ it should be the one I am using to run backst night!''
Tang Li Xue nodded while smiling in satisfaction.
Before she got me of Pride, her attacking method was too limited. She could only use her fangs and ws but now with the power of me, her offensive method would be even more variable based on how she could use it.
For example right now Tang Li Xue tried to imbue her me of Pride onto her ws to increase her [Rip] skill''s power to another level!
BWOOSH~~!
Tang Li Xue''s sharp ws shrouded by the deep blue mes and started to emit the scorching heat!
In her Special Skill column, there was a new skill that appeared there named [Fire ws]!
''Sess! Hehe¡ If I could increase my control over this deep-blue me, I can even use it both in close-range or long-rangebat! Heck, I can even create the Fire Wall as a defense measure! What a perfect ability for a Perfect Queen such as me!''
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s control over the me of Pride still so lousy for now and condensing Fire Wall from it was no more than wishful thinking but at least she could still use her Fire Breath to create some fire boundary to prevent her enemies from getting close.
Tang Li Xue decided to think about itter and started to take out Elder Lin''s Spatial Ring from her Space Pouch.
''Hmmm¡ So above Excellent Evaluation, there is Perfect Evaluation too! I wonder are there even higher evaluations than Perfect? And why I can get Perfect Evaluation yesterday?''
But after thinking about it for a while, Tang Li Xue felt she really deserve the Perfect Evaluation.
The first reason was that no one had managed to spot her at all even with Xiao Hei''s uncle and all of those powerful Elders joined the frayter! Of course, it excluded her target, the Elder Lin himself since Tang Li Xue did not know if he was already dead or still alive right now.
''It looks like I have to check his conditionter if I have any free time¡ But at least I am very sure he is still unconscious for now!''
The second reason was that she managed to take all Elder Lin''s precious herbs, pills, and even his high-ranking me!
''Oh¡ and I even take his Spatial Ring in the end! Uwehehehehe¡ There must be many good stuff inside since usually people always keep all of his most important belongings close to him! If me of Pride can be put in his Spatial Ring, he definitely already does it too!''
''Unfortunately, I can''t use this spatial ring for now. Oh well, I only need to increase my cultivation level one more and reach Qi Condensation Stage to be able to use it.''
Tang Li Xue put Elder Lin''s Spatial Ring back into her Space Pouch.
The third reason should be because of the terrible damage Tang Li Xue deals to Elder Lin himselfst night. Not only she crippled Elder Lin''s little brother, she even made his mid-ranking me self-destructed in the end!
Even Tang Li Xue''s herself felt some pity toward Elder Lin. She was really overdoing itst night. She was basically robbing Elder Lin from all of his possession, castrated his manhood, and tried to kill him in the end.
''Wait a minute¡ thest one is not my fault, okay?! It was that reckless blue me''s fault! By the way¡ it really is a waste of [Bad Luck Sticker] yesterday, maybe I don''t need to use it to deal with Elder Lin¡''
But after thinking for a while, Tang Li Xue began to waver because what happenedst night was too coincidental. It was actually a perfect string of coincidences that led to the Elder Lin''s doom.
First, Elder Lin loosened his grip on Tang Li Xue when he saw her deep-blue me''s cloak.
Then Tang Li Xue used her [Heaven Splitting Wave(7thyer)] to Elder Lin... Tang Li Xue actually only wanted to keep some distance with him so she won''t get captured by him again but unfortunately, the ident urred and she hit Elder Lin''s crotch.
Because of the immense pain caused by his little brother being crippled, Elder Lin cannot control his mysterious green me anymore which led to it being devoured by me of Pride and forced to self-destruct in the end.
Tang Li Xue started to shudder in horror when she thought about it.
She always thought [Bad Luck Sticker]''s effect was quite mild like stepped onto feces when walk or pot came flying out of nowhere.
But looking at its effect yesterday, Tang Li Xue concluded that its effect was far greater and dangerous than what she estimated before.
[Bad Luck Sticker]''s scale of effect was more like a huge meteor fell out of nowhere or some powerful assassins came to target the wrong person.
''If what happened to Elder Linst night was because of [Bad Luck Sticker]¡ How fearsome that sticker really is?! Oh well¡ Let''s forget all of it! It is already over anyway! It''s not like I can go to Elder Lin''s ce and apologize to him, right?! Let''s see what I get as an additional reward yesterday!''
Tang Li Xue took out her [Premium Weapon Chest] and started to inspect it.
Suddenly, a wave of the information entered her mind in an instant and she immediately understands how to use this [Premium Weapon Chest].
In a simple exnation, she could think of any kind of weapon she prefers like a sword, a spear, a bow, etc. Then when she opened this [Premium Weapon Chest], she could get that kind of weapon she prefers but its stats enhancement would randomize by the system.
But Tang Li Xue was very disappointed. Well, if she was still a human, she would certainly jump around in excitement and happiness but now¡
''Sigh¡ What is the use of this piece of junk? Even if I manage to pull out the legendary weapon like Excalibur or Xuanyuan Sword, then what?! Can I wield it with this pair of tiny paws? I prefer the system to give me more [Lucky Sticker] than this junk¡''
Tang Li Xue shook her head in disappointment and threw the [Premium Weapon Chest] back into her system inventory.
''Well, I have two big jobs to do today! First, I want to consume all the precious herbs and fruits also some pills that I getst night! I wonder how many levels I increase today. Especially, the Golden Bodhi Fruit¡ what does it mean it can grant Golden Body? Sssshhh¡ I really want to eat it!''
''Second, since I already reach the peak of Body Tempering Stage, I can finally awaken my martial soul!''
Tang Li Xue needs to go to the awakening altar if she wanted to awaken her martial soul since at the awakening altar, there was a crucial item for it called Soul Orb.
''I already finished my roasted meat just now and my stomach still so full¡ Let''s go to the awakening altar first this morning! I wonder what my martial soul would be?! Phoenix? Dragon? Qilin? No¡ Since I am a fox then my martial soul should be an imposing Nine-Tailed Fox! Uwehehehehe¡ I cannot wait anymore! Let''s go now!''
Tang Li Xue jumped down from the table and activated her [Ethereal Form]. Her transparent figure passed through the wall easily and she started to dash toward where the awakening altar was.
Chapter 62 - 62: Going to Awakening Altar!
Chapter 62 - 62: Going to Awakening Altar!
When Tang Li Xue went out of the Xiao Hei''s room with her [Ethereal Form] still activated, she managed to notice some spies act strangely in Xiao Hei''s courtyard.
''What the hell, are all these people searching for? Since these spies start to move around, that''s mean that fatty uncle is still alive and kicking! What a pity! But it would be impossible for someone as strong as him to die that easily¡''
Tang Li Xue also thought that fatty uncle should hold some suspicion to Xiao Hei now since Xiao Hei did not appearst night to catch the intruder.
''Then all of these spiese here under that fatty uncle''s order and start to sniffing around trying to find some clues about the intruder here¡ I really should find some time to tell Xiao Hei about all these spies and traitorster!''
Tang Li Xue decided to stop paying attention to it for now and dashed toward the Awakening Altar.
But the tense atmosphere around the Asura Demon Sect made her feel even more restless. Even her danger instinct kept ringing and warned her, all of these were like the calm before the great storm.
''This is not good! I also need to start nning some contingency ns! I wonder if my me of Pride could melt that fake dragon''s chain?! So we can escape together if something has gone wrong¡''
''Sigh¡ oh well, I will do it step by step! Let''s awaken my martial soul first!''
¡..
Awakening Altar usually crowded by people, especially when the time of new disciple epted some of them with great talent would already reach the peak of Body Tempering Stage and their martial souls ready to be awakened.
But talent only remains talent if the moment their martial souls awaken, they only get some trashy rank martial souls then their path as a genius would be over before it even began.
Ironically, Tang Li Xue heard that the reason Xiao Hei''s fatty uncle failed to be nominated as Asura Demon Sect''s Patriarch twice was because he had the trashy rank martial soul!
However, the fatty uncle managed to make it up with his hard work and persistence to reach where he was right now. Tang Li Xue really admired this part of fatty uncle very much, he had a big ambition but also willing to put much more effort into it, he also had great patience to n it step by step in the very long term.
''But really¡ it feels very weird when a viin has the main character''s trait! What if that fatty uncle starts to shout out something like ''Go Beyond, Plus Ultra''? Pffft¡''
Tang Li Xue quickly put away all of her distracting thought when she arrived in front of the Awakening Altar.
Fortunately, no one was around the Awakening Altar at this time. Tang Li Xue was also not sure why but maybe because of the ruckus she madest night so everyone was under the strict surveince today, they might all even be interrogatedter.
Tang Li Xue jumped to the top of the Awakening Altar and deactivated her [Ethereal Form].
She found a crystal orb about the same size as the ser ball on the top of Awakening Altar.
''This crystal ball should be the Soul Orb! Okay now¡ how to do it? Only put my paws on the top of it?''
Tang Li Xue put her tiny paw on her furry chin and started to think.
''OH RIGHT! My [Greater Lucky Sticker]! Should I use it now orter when I ready to evolve?''
This was why Tang Li Xue did not use her [Greater Lucky Sticker] toplete her questst time!
She wanted to use [Greater Lucky Sticker] to gain the maximum benefit from her evolution like the strongest evolution path or the strongest divine ability!
Tang Li Xue also considered using [Greater Lucky Sticker] toplete Elder Lin''s quest before but doing so was like using a lottery to get 100 scores in the school exam, it felt very wasteful.
But using [Greater Lucky Sticker] for her evolution or awaken her martial soul was like using a lottery to buy argepany, it would impact her future greatly!
''Oh well¡ Let''s just use one for now! I have two of them anyway! I can use the other one for my evolutionter¡ sigh¡ I can only hope the divine ability I get when I evolve would increase my survivability.''
Actually, Tang Li Xue nned to keep one of her [Greater Lucky Sticker] so she can use it in the critical life or death moment to save her life but now she changed her mind.
If she could get stronger faster, it means her survivability would also increase drastically along with it!
This confidence emerged because she managed toplete yesterday''s quest with a perfect evaluation with only depending on her [Ethereal Form]!
If she seeded in obtaining an even more OP divine ability than her current [Ethereal Form], her safety would be more reassured without any need to rely on [Greater Lucky Sticker]!
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and took out one of the [Greater Lucky Sticker] from her system inventory and then sticking it on her furry chest!
[Greater Lucky Buff duration: 00:10:00]
''Now since every second count, let''s use this chance to use all of my lottery tickets first!''
Tang Li Xue pulled out her only [Bronze Lottery Ticket] from her system inventory and used it without any hesitation.
[The bronze wheel of fate started to spinning!]
''Be faster! Quick! Quick! I still have 4 more [Silver Lottery Ticket]!''
She did not care about this [Bronze Lottery Ticket] since the reward she would get from [Silver Lottery Ticket] should be far better than it.
[Congrattion! You got 1x[Restoration Elixir] from the bronze wheel of fate!]
''Eh¡ Restoration Elixir? What is the difference between [Restoration Elixir] and [Recovery Pill]? Oh well, since I get it with [Greater Lucky Sticker] buff on, it should not be a useless item! NEXT!''
This time Tang Li Xue pulled out four [Silver Lottery Ticket] from her system inventory and used it one by one.
[The silver wheel of fate started to spinning!]
Like what Tang Li Xue guess before, the prize in these [Silver Lottery Ticket] was far better than [Bronze Lottery Ticket] even the worst prize should be [Recovery Pill] or [Stamina Pill].
[Premium Weapon Chest]¡ [Premium Cultivation Voucher]¡ [Premium Armor Set]¡ [Divine Ability Voucher]¡ [Great Cmity Sticker]¡ [Divine Buff Sticker]¡
''...¡. There is even [Great Cmity Sticker]??!! If the [Bad Luck Sticker] is already so terrifying, I wonder how powerful is this sticker would be!''
The silver wheel started to slow down¡ and stopped in the end at¡
[Congrattion! You got 1x[Substitution Doll] from the silver wheel of fate!]
''Uhhh¡ not bad but¡ a bit disappointing with [Greater Lucky Sticker] buff on¡ Oh well, I have 3 more anyway! NEXT!''
[The silver wheel of fate started to spinning!]
''Please¡ Let me get something like [Greater Lucky Sticker] or that [Great Cmity Sticker] also good, I can stick it on that fatty uncle''s butt, and let''s see if he still could survive until tomorrow!''
[Congrattion! You got 1x[Substitution Doll] from the silver wheel of fate!]
''AGAIN?! I GET THAT CURSED DOLL AGAIN?! Come on! I know I said that I want to keep myself safe and survive all the time but 3 [Substitution Doll] are already too many!''
While she keptining full of frustration in her mind, Tang Li Xue still used her [Silver Lottery Ticket] once again¡
[The silver wheel of fate started to spinning!]
''Come on¡ that [Divine Ability Voucher] is quite good too! Or maybe that [Divine Buff Sticker]¡''
[Congrattion! You got 1x[Divine Ability Talisman] from the silver wheel of fate!]
''Divine¡ Ability¡ Talisman? What is this? Wait a minute! My [Greater Lucky Sticker]''s buff duration is too limited, I better finish this quick and awaken my martial soul first before the buff duration run out! I can check my prizeter anyway¡ Thest [Silver Lottery Ticket]! Please do not disappoint me this time!''
[The silver wheel of fate started to spinning!]
Chapter 63 - 63: My Martial Soul is a… WHAT?!
Chapter 63 - 63: My Martial Soul is a¡ WHAT?!
[Congrattion! You got 1x[Sub-Profession Package] from the silver wheel of fate!]
''[Sub-Profession Package]? It sounds not bad! Sssshhhhhh¡ Atst¡ My martial soul! Eh, but if my martial soul is too high-ranked then my previous n to evolve it step by step and gain immunity to every element would be hopeless¡''
Tang Li Xue put her furry paws on the top of the soul orb while her mind keeps thinking about what martial soul was the best for her, the higher-ranked one or lower-ranked one.
But contrary to her expectation, there was no earth-shattering effect like when she evolved or formed her dantian before.
The faint rainbow light started to shine from the soul orb and Tang Li Xue''s martial soul also began to condense on the top of her head bit by bit.
''OOOOHHHH¡ Is¡ is this my martial soul?! A¡ Uhhh¡ wait a minute¡ what the hell¡ is this?! A FISH?''
Tang Li Xue looked at the palm-sized golden fish on the top of her head and she dropped her jaw in disbelief.
There was also a status sheet above the palm-sized golden fish, Tang Li Xue quickly nced at it out of curiosity.
[Martial Soul: Golden Carp]
[Grade: Poor]
[Level 1]
[Stats]
HP: 30/30
Strength: 2
Agility: 3
Toughness: 1
[Unique Skill: Swimming, Refining Spirit Energy]
[Passive Skill: Breathing Underwater, Lucky Halo]
''Golden¡ carp? NNNUUUUOOOOOHHHHH!!! Why is it a carp?! Why is it a fish of all creatures?! A carp! So uncool! Even a cat or a dog is cuter and cooler than a carp! And its HP is only 30! It''s suck so badly!''
Tang Li Xue started to roll on the top of Awakening Altar in disappointment andined non-stop about her martial soul in her mind.
She even forgot that her starting HP was only 20 before so this Golden Carp actually a bit stronger than her when she was still a fox cub.
In the end, she gritted her teeth in frustration but still decided to check on her martial soul''s status.
''What the hell is this Swimming and Breathing Underwater skills?! It is a fish for Godsake! What it will be if it can''t Swimming and Breathing Underwater?! A living sushi? NEXT!''
Tang Li Xue was fuming in rage when she saw the status sheet write something so obvious.
[Refining Spirit Energy]: Golden Carp can refine the surrounding spirit energy to produce one low-tier spirit stone/day. (The quantity and the purity of spirit stone will increase along with the martial soul''s level)
[Lucky Halo]: ording to Feng Shui, Golden Carp can attract good luck and prosperity to its owner (The effect will increase along with the martial soul''s level)
Tang Li Xue almost kneeled in gratitude and happiness when she saw these two skills!
''Oh My God¡ I can''t believe it! This Golden Carp is actually an incarnation of luck and fortune!''
Her Golden Carp martial soul might not have anybat skills right now but its two starting support skills were more than enough to make up for it!
[Lucky Halo]''s effect should be weak right now but if the Golden Carp keep leveling up who knows if its effect could rival the [Greater Lucky Sticker]''s buff in the future!
As for [Refining Spirit Energy], it was basically the same as a money-making machine!
Because other than pills, cultivators can also use spirit stones to increase their cultivation!
Moreover, the pills actually brought many problems if you consume them continuously in the long term!
For example if cultivators kept using pills, they would .u.mte some toxic or impurity from the pills'' residue inside their body and it would bring a terrible side-effect.
The other disadvantage if they used the same pills over, again and again, their efficacy would decrease over time until it no longer has any effect.
But spirit stones did not have any of those side effects! Any people can use spirit energy inside it to increase their cultivation!
But unfortunately, the spirit stones were too rare.
Each time spirit stone mine appears it would cause the bloodbath and huge war between big sects.
In Asura Demon Sect, outer disciples and inner disciples could only get cultivation pills.
Only core disciples and elders can get spirit stones and it must be traded with contribution points.
If anyone knows that Tang Li Xue''s martial soul can produce spirit stones, there was no doubt that there would be another bloodbath just to force her signing master and servant contract!
Moreover, it also said something like ''(The quantity and the purity of spirit stone will increase along with the martial soul''s level)''¡ In simple words, the stronger her martial soulter, the more spirit stones it would produce, and the higher its tier would be too!
This fact was like the cold water sshed onto Tang Li Xue''s face as her expression grew more solemn.
''I must be careful to not tell anyone about my martial soul ability or I would be really damned! I also must be really careful to not show it to anyone! But the spying eyes are really hard to detect¡ sigh¡ It is a really good money-making skill¡ but I also have one more big problem that I need to face right now!''
Tang Li Xue unsummoned her Golden Carp martial soul and tried to open her [Shared EXP] window.
''Oh, God¡ Please, bless me this time and let it be there!''
[Shared EXP status:]
[Level: 100%]
[Cultivation: - %]
[Martial Soul: 0%]
Tang Li Xue almost fainted in happiness when she found her martial soul also included in [Shared EXP].
''THERE REALLY IS! YEEEEEESSSS! I can use this [Shared EXP] to level up my martial soul and evolve it! I can''t wait anymore! Let''s go back to Xiao Hei''s room then eat all of those precious herbs and pills!''
With her current abundant resources, Tang Li Xue was very confident that she could push her martial soul to evolve once or twice! And don''t forget she also has her five [2 Times EXP Card]!
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] back and her tiny figure turned transparent. She jumped down from Awakening Altar and headed back to Xiao Hei''s courtyard.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sky already turned dark the moment Tang Li Xue went back to Xiao Hei''s ce¡
She turned off her [Ethereal Form] the moment she entered Xiao Hei''s room because she did not want Xiao Hei to find out that she has some stealth skill since she was afraid that Xiao Hei would suspect her as the culprit of yesterday''smotion.
But she found the one inside the room was not her concubine, Xiao Hei but his stupid clown attendant, Feng San.
''What is this stupid really wants today? Don''t tell me Xiao Hei still dare to order him to prepare for my food today after what happenedst time?!''
"Uhhh¡ little princess¡ little ancestor¡"Feng San was trying to put a gentle smile and persuade Tang Li Xue but Tang Li Xue could only see the creepy ugly smile stered on his face.
''Call me Queen!'' Tang Li Xue stuck her furry chest and stared at Feng San full of suspicion.
"Uhhh¡ You see¡ today my young patriarch is really really busy so he cannot bathe you¡ so he ordered me to bathe you until clean since yesterday you went sleep with such a dirty body¡" Feng San tried to exin while pointing at the barrel bathtub full of hot water.
''What did you say?! Dirty body?! How dare you call This Queen''s body dirty?! This Queen is still as pure as jade, okay?! This Queen is only ever slept in the same bed with her big brother and her concubine!''
Tang Li Xue bared her fangs in anger.
''And do you think anyone can bathe This Queen?! Only This Queen''s concubine has the right to touch This Queen''s smooth skin¡ errr¡ fur!''
"Little ancestor¡ Please do not make things hard for this subordinate¡ This subordinate only does what young patriarch ordered me to¡" Feng San saw Tang Li Xue was so uncooperative so he started to take his stance and pounced toward her.
Tang Li Xue knew she was not Feng San opponent because although Feng San was a bit stupid but his cultivation achievement was already quite high.
So she activated her [Sprint] and ran under the bed before Feng San could catch her.
She silently activated her [Ethereal Form] back, passed through the wall under the bed, then headed to the room beside Xiao Hei''s room, and sleep therefortably tonight.
Meanwhile, Feng San was searching for Tang Li Xue all night but still did not manage to find her at all and in the end he even got punished by Xiao Hei because of his negligence.
Chapter 64 - 64: Incoming Hidden Danger!
Chapter 64 - 64: Iing Hidden Danger!
¡..
¡
.
Mo Chonglin''s residence the next night after Elder Lin''s incident¡
There were several elders inside the grand living room including Mo Chonglin himself.
All the elders sat at the right and left side of the room while Mo Chonglin sat deeper at the center of the room.
From the vase to the furniture, everything inside this huge room was really luxurious and expensive but no one inside this room had any mood to appreciate it.
The atmosphere inside the room also depressing and gloomy, no one dared to open their mouth and say anything at this moment. All the elders did not even dare to stare at Mo Chonglin this time.
CREEEAK~~!
The grand living room''s door opened, a grim-faced elder brought his medicine box into the gloomy living room.
Anyone could easily tell from his medicine box that this grim-faced elder should be a doctor or a physician.
"How is his condition? Can you cure him?" Mo Chonglin raised his eyebrow and asked with a solemn tone.
The grim-faced elder shook his head with unhappy expression and sit beside Mo Chonglin.
"Elder Lin''s injury is very serious but that is not why he still unconscious until now. It is more like he received mental shock before he went unconscious." The grim-faced elder reported to Mo Chonglin after drank a cup of tea.
"The intruder definitely used that high-ranking blue me to fight Elder Lin. Elder Lin treasured that high-ranking blue me very much like it''s his own life. It is no wonder he receives such a mental shock because his treasured high-ranking me got taken by the intruder and even his own mid-ranking me spirit self-destructed in the end." Mo Chonglin closed his eyes in frustration and helplessness.
"It really is a pity. If we can make him regain his consciousness even for a moment, we can get the intruder''s identity, characteristics, or features and catch him before he could slip out from our Asura Demon Sect with all of our pills and precious herbs." The grim-faced elder sighed in disappointment.
"Can you find any clue from his injury?" Mo Chonglin asked the grim-faced elder again.
"This... Uh... how should I say it? The wound at his crotch is... very strange... ording to my diagnosis, his wound actually caused by... a powerful prative strike..." The grim-faced elder stared at Mo Chonglin weirdly as if he wanted to say something but the words just could note out from his mouth.
"Are you trying to say the intruder is my nephew himself? And he used his [Heaven Splitting Wave] to injure Elder Lin?" Mo Chonglin asked grim-faced elder with interrogating tone this time.
"Uhhhh... nope... your nephew''s [Heaven Splitting Wave] is only at 3rd or 4thyer, right? ording to Elder Lin''s wound, the strike''s prative power is really high. In [Heaven Splitting Wave] standard, it should be at least at the 7thyer!" The grim-faced elder still stared at Mo Chonglin weirdly.
Mo Chonglin was dumbfounded the moment he heard grim-faced elder''s words.
Martial arts with high prative power were very rare and usually all of it only taught to Sect Leader''s sessor or Grand Elder.
Moreover, the degree of difficulty to learn it was really high! Even a genius like Xiao Hei can only reach the 4thyer after training diligently for more than ten years.
In other words, the person that can use the 7thyer of [Heaven Splitting Wave] in the entire Asura Demon Sect was only Mo Chonglin alone.
All the elders in the living room felt even more headaches attacking their minds when they heard this clue from the grim-faced elder.
"There is no need to think too deeply about this. We will know who he is soon enough." Mo Chonglin spoke with a tone full of confidence.
"Grand Elder, what do you mean by that? Do you have some n to bait the culprit out?" The grim-faced elder asked curiously.
"No, but I am really sure that the culprit is one of my nephew''s people!" Mo Chonglin sneered coldly.
"Haaaah! That... that is impossible, right? I mean he is still a patriarch after all... isn''t the same as crippling his own sect! And... I think... he is not that kind of person..." The grim-faced elder mumbled to himself.
All the elders inside the living room started to whisper each other and also think it was impossible.
"I only say the culprit is one of my nephew''s people. It doesn''t mean that he did it under my nephew''s order!" Mo Chonglin held his chin and chuckled coldly.
"My guess is the intruder actually doing it under his own volition, his primary target should be Elder Lin but he also took all the pills, herbs, and the high-ranking me along the way! His true motive is revenge for my nephew." Mo Chonglin continued and started to exin his deduction toward everyone in the living room.
If Tang Li Xue was here and heard Mo Chonglin''s words now, she would scare out of her wits because he can guess almost all of it right.
"How... how can you guess all of that?" The grim-faced elder asked in doubt.
"Because he chose to enter Elder Lin''s secret room rather than the energy room in the end." Mo Chonglin stared at the grim-faced elder and answered.
"But all of that is not important right now! Because no matter how great the chess piece is, the game would still over once we checkmate the king himself!" Mo Chonglin said with azy tone but the meaning behind his words was actually very heavy.
"Then¡ then¡ what are we going to do for now?" One of the elders timidly asked.
"I heard my nephew has some divine pills that can cure any injuries in one night before¡" Mo Chonglin hinted to all the elders in the living room.
All the elders instantly stupefied by Mo Chonglin''s words and started to think: ''Did Grand Elder want us to steal that divine pills from the young patriarch and give it to Elder Lin?''
¡..
¡
.
The next morning, Tang Li Xue awoke from her deep sleep in the next room.
She wobbled walking back to Xiao Hei''s room but find out that Xiao Hei already waiting for her inside his room with a brush in his hand.
''Oh, Xiao Hei¡ I am sorry but I cannot eat your roasted meat today. I have a breakfast appointment today!''
Xiao Hei''s answer was to hold the back of her neck and threw her into the barrel bathtub before scrubbing her body so hard with the brush that she started to wail in pain.
After taking an intense bath, Tang Li Xue''s soft smooth fur already perfectly cleaned until it shone back with a faint silvery-white like a plushy toy.
When her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes stared at Xiao Hei, even he cannot resist her charm and started to embrace her soft tiny body for a while then kissed her forehead several times.
After ying around with Tang Li Xue for some time, Xiao Hei roasted some pork meats for her breakfast and left her alone in the room for work after that. There were many problems inside the sect that he needs to handle right now especially about the scarcity of cultivation resources.
Tang Li Xue looked at the roasted pork meats that Xiao Hei''s made and her saliva started to flood her mouth.
In the end, she ate all Xiao Hei''s roasted pork meats and got too full to eat anymore so she waited for a few hours until she digested all before pulling out her [2 Times EXP Card] from her system inventory.
''Okay! Let''s begin! I wonder if I can reach my maximum level this time and evolve?! Oh well, just let my martial soul evolve first!''
Tang Li Xue opened [Shared EXP] window and started to set the EXP share between her level and martial soul¡
[Shared EXP status:]
[Level: 50%]
[Cultivation: - %]
[Martial Soul: 50%]
Chapter 65 - 65: Three Evolution Paths!
Chapter 65 - 65: Three Evolution Paths!
''Eh¡ Wait a minute¡ if I activate these [2 Times EXP card] one by one, aren''t that means I must continue to eat all of these pills for five hours?! Not to mention the efficacy would weaken each time I consume it, I would probably start to get sick of it if I eat it for too much!''
Tang Li Xue took out all of her [2 Times EXP card], there were five cards in total.
''I wonder if these [2 Times EXP card]''s buff would stack if I use two or more at the same time?! Let''s try activating two at once first! By the way, how can I use this EXP card?''
Tang Li Xue tried to stick [2 Times EXP card] onto her chest like how she used [Lucky Sticker] before and the card immediately disappeared after entered her body.
[2 times EXP buff duration: 01:00:00]
Then Tang Li Xue immediately took the second [2 Times EXP card] and stuck it again onto her chest. Like before the card immediately entered her body and disappear.
[4 times EXP buff duration: 00:55:00]
''IT WORKS! Yes, continue!''
2X¡ 4X... 8X¡ 16X¡ 32X¡
[32 times EXP buff duration: 00:30:00]
Tang Li Xue realized that each time she used her [2 Times EXP card], the buff duration actually got shorter and shorter!
When she got 4 times and 8 times EXP buff, the duration cut off by 5 minutes each time she used the card so it decreased 10 minutes duration in total leaving only 50 minutes!
When she got 16 times and 32 times EXP buff, the duration cut off by 10 minutes each time she used the card so it decreased 20 minutes duration in total leaving only 30 minutes in the end!
It was quite a reasonable effect though since Tang Li Xue had only need to consume a limited amount of precious resources to gain 32 times EXP from it.
Tang Li Xue did not want to waste any more time and took out all [Seven-Colored Star Grass] then stuffed it into her mouth.
[Strength +1]
[Strength +1]
[Strength +1]
¡..
''Aaarrrgggghhh¡ this grass doesn''t increase my EXP at all! Only my strength and toughness stats! Since my toughness stats already maxed out, it only increases my strength now! Change to other food! I will finish this grasster!''
She took out the three Golden Bodhi Fruits now and started to eat it one by one! The fruit was really juicy, sweet, and delicious but Tang Li Xue did not have any time to spare to savor its delicious taste!
[EXP Gained!] [All stats +30]
[Congrattion! Your martial soul (Golden Carp) achieved level 2!]
''Woah! All stats +30! What a good stuff! Unfortunately, the [Common] grade''s all stats limit are 300 and I need to evolve before it can continue to increase! Sigh¡''
It made sense though since if her stats can increase without limit, then there was no need for her to evolve any more. She only needs to increase all of her stats to a hundred thousand points and it should be enough to defeat all [Rare] grade demonic beasts like the fake dragon in one punch.
Tang Li Xue finished the other two Golden Bodhi Fruits in a few seconds.
[EXP Gained!] [All stats +30]
[Congrattion! Your martial soul (Golden Carp) achieved level 3!]
[EXP Gained!] [All stats +30]
[Congrattion! Your martial soul (Golden Carp) achieved level 4!]
[Congrattion! You have gained Divine Ability (Golden Body) from consuming Golden Bodhi Fruit!]
[Congrattion! You achieved level 3, Stat Point +30, Skill Point +6]
''I can''t believe it! I really manage to get it even though the fruit description says ''small chance to grant [Golden Body]''! Thank God¡ it looks like the [Lucky Halo] from my martial soul is really effective!''
With this, all three of Tang Li Xue''s stats were already hit 300 marks and it cannot be increased anymore unless she evolves further into higher grade beast!
This time, Tang Li Xue took out all of her [Seven Elemental Flower] out and ready to consume it but before she could do that¡
BWOOOOSH~~!
The me of Pride flew out again by its own will from Tang Li Xue''s dantian.
''What the hell are you¡''
Before Tang Li Xue could guess what the me of Pride want to do, it has already begun to burn all the [Seven Elemental Flower] to nothingness!
''NNNNNUUUUOOOOOOHHHHH¡what the hell are you doing to my precious [Seven Elemental Flower]?!''
Tang Li Xue almost cursed the me of Pride because of its unreasonable behavior but then she noticed that the me of Pride was burning all the [Seven Elemental Flower] to absorb its essence!
After absorbing all [Seven Elemental Flower]''s essences in a few seconds, the me of Pride flew back to Tang Li Xue''s dantian andy dormant to digest the overwhelming essence it just absorbed.
Tang Li Xue tried to use her deep-blue me but she finds that she actually can''t use it for now.
From this, we could see that the me of Pride was actually very sensible.
Imagine if it started to absorb [Seven Elemental Flower]''s essence when Tang Li Xue was inside the herb garden''s core area and ity dormant like now!
Tang Li Xue would surely meet with many unimaginable difficulties because she can''t use the me of Pride''s power at that time!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue still did not realize it and still cuss at the me of Pride because of it.
Since there was no other precious fruit, flower, or herb, Tang Li Xue decided to take out some of her pills and started to consume it as fast as she could!
Fifteen minutes was very short after all and every second was very precious for her!
Her level and her martial soul''s level were skyrocketing at a rapid pace!
In one minute, Tang Li Xue''s martial soul already reached level 6 and ready to evolve!
[Congrattion! Your martial soul (Golden Carp) achieved level 6!]
[Your martial soul (Golden Carp) already reached the max level cap for its current grade!]
[EXP Share status automatically shifted to Level: 100%]
[Congrattion! Your martial soul (Golden Carp) has reached level 6! (Golden Carp) evolution Paths menu avable!]
[Note: Please choose (Golden Carp) evolution paths carefully! These choices are only avable now in the beginning! In the future, the martial soul (Golden Carp) would automatically evolve ording to the evolution path you choose!]
''????????!!!!!!!!''
Tang Li Xue''s paws were never stopping and it kept stuffing several pills into her mouth but now after she read the system notification, she became curious and decided to check her martial soul evolution Paths menu but of course, her paws still did not stop or slow down at all and keep popping several pills into her mouth swiftly.
[Support evolution path: (Flying Golden Fish)]
[Defense evolution path: (Hard Shelled Turtle)]
[Offense evolution path: (Venomous Purple Snake)]
''Ooohhh? I can choose my martial soul''s evolution like this? Interesting! Okay¡ I can''t decide it carelessly since I can choose it only this time! Let''s think about this very carefullyter! For now, I just need to stuff my mouth full for another ten minutes or so!''
Even though she said it as if it did not matter at all but these evolution path choices were actually giving Tang Li Xue a very big headache!
For example if her own evolution path was offense one then she could choose defense or support evolution path for her martial soul to cover her weakness or vise versa!
But now her ''moon fox'' evolution path actually did not have any clear definite like defense, offense, or support like her martial soul''s evolution path!
ording to the divine ability she got when she evolves, this ''moon fox'' evolution path was actually a jack of all trades since her divine ability can copy all types of skills, martial arts, or divine abilities.
Since her ''moon fox'' evolution path was a jack of all trades so it also did not have any clear weakness to cover!
''What a headache?! Oh God, which one should I choose?! Sigh¡ If only I have one more [Greater Lucky Sticker] to help me choose the best option out of these three!''
Chapter 66 - 66: Coded Message!
Chapter 66 - 66: Coded Message!
After thinking until her brain almost short-circuited, Tang Li Xue started to apply her usual creed.
''If some choices are too hard to decide for now then try to dy it forter until I am really sure about my choice! Moreover, I already stuck at [Common] grade for too long! I should focus on my level for now so I can evolve faster!''
After steeling her decision, Tang Li Xue continued to stuff her mouth with many pills like eating popcorn.
Because the pill''s efficacy would decrease each time she consumes it so when she started to feel that kind of pills she ate give her too little EXP, she would switch to a different kind of pill, again and again.
[Marrow Cleansing Pill]
[Blood Rejuvenation Pill]
[Qi Gathering Pill]
[Bone Tempering Pill]
¡..
When 32 times EXP buff duration was almost up, Tang Li Xue already ate many different kinds of pills.
[Congrattion! You achieved level 16, Stat Point +30, Skill Point +6]
''Dammit! I already reach level 16 now! Why the evolution menu still isn''t avable yet? Don''t tell me that I must reach level 21 to evolve into [Umon] Grade! My God, maybe I should choose to evolve when I was level 11 instead of forming my Dantian!''
Tang Li Xue felt dizzy and nausea because of overeating, even her stomach already bloated like a pregnant fox and she wanted to puke everything inside her stomach out so badly but she still tried to endure it and keep shoving several pills into her throat continuously.
''Following this evolution level''s pattern, isn''t that mean that I need to reach level 41 next time to evolve into [Rare] grade beast?! Then I must reach level 81 to evolve into [Epic] grade beast to regain my human form?! Holysh*t¡ LEVEL 81! That''s a loooooong way!''
[Congrattion! You achieved level 17, Stat Point +30, Skill Point +6]
In the end, Tang Li Xue managed to squeeze one more level up and reached level 17 before the 32 times EXP buff duration really ran out.
Tang Li Xue''s expression was really gloomy right now as she started to think: ''I only need 4 more levels to reach level 21¡ It looks like the fastest way is toplete one more hard difficulty quest and get the +4 level rewards in the end!''
Tang Li Xue could only sigh and wait for the right opportunity to trigger some hard difficulty questter.
Since she did not have anything to do right now, Tang Li Xue started to consider the evolution path that her martial soul would take in the future.
''This (Hard Shelled Turtle) would probably evolve into Xuanwu, the mythical ck tortoise in the future. The legend says that it has an imprable defense and an infinite life span¡ But I already have my [Ethereal Form] so I am already immune to physical attack and when I manage to collect all elemental immunities¡ Hehehehe¡ So I don''t need this defense evolution path!''
Tang Li Xue crossed her paws and refused this (Hard Shelled Turtle) evolution path. She really did not even think that when her [Ethereal Form] still activated, she also cannot hit her enemies!
''So this only leaves me with support and offense evolution path! These two¡ are so good that it makes me very hard to make up my mind!''
''This (Flying Golden Fish) would probably evolve into Kun Peng! This mythical beast is a hybrid bird and fish also equipped with all kinds of enhanced buffs, water maniption, air maniption, and space maniption! Sigh¡ if we talk about the most reliable supporter then this mythical beast is undoubtedly the best one!''
''While this (Venomous Purple Snake)¡ I don''t know, maybe it will evolve into a nine-headed gigantic hydra or maybe be a noble dragon! But what attracted me the most about this evolution path is its poison element!''
''Imagine it if I burn my enemies with my me of Pride then I poisoned them using my martial soul too! I only need to use my [Ethereal Form] to hide and wait for them to turn weaker and weaker under my damage over the time before giving them my finishing blow! This evolution path would really make me closer to be the perfect assassin¡''
Tang Li Xue decided to ponder about it while taking a walk around Asura Demon Sect to help her digest the food inside her bloated stomach.
But when Tang Li Xue went out of Xiao Hei''s residence, she once again noticed several people lurking around in Xiao Hei''s courtyard.
They were Xiao Hei''s maids and servants but Tang Li Xue knew their true identity was actually the spy sent by that fatty uncle to keep an eye on every Xiao Hei''s movement.
Usually, they kept following Xiao Hei like a gum stuck on the sole of his shoes but since that Elder Lin''s incident, they kept lurking around Xiao Hei''s residence instead.
At first, Tang Li Xue thought they were sent by the fatty uncle to find some clue about Elder Lin''s attacker but now Tang Li Xue became unsure about it anymore since maybe that fatty uncle had another evil intention designed for her Xiao Hei.
''Let''s try to stalk a few of them and see what they want to do here!''
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and stalked some of them for a few hours but in the end, she only found that they really earnestly clean Xiao Hei''s courtyard this time.
Refusing to give up, Tang Li Xue decided to follow the butler back after they cleaned Xiao Hei''s courtyard.
The butler actually headed to the kitchen and asked for a bowl of noodles to fill his hungry stomach from the chef.
The chef only nodded toward the butler expressionlessly then used a few minutes of his time to make a bowl of hot noodles for the butler.
The chef gave a bowl of hot noodles along with a pair of chopsticks to the butler and the butler thanked the chef repeatedly with a wide smile on his face.
Everything seems normal and nothing strange happened if only Tang Li Xue never saw they used the chopstick as a tool to ry the message then even she would never think that this kind of encounter was actually their way to send the message between their people.
The butler went back to his room bringing the bowl of hot noodle with him but when he put the bowl on the table, he realized that the chopstick went missing!
"Eh¡ it''s gone?! How could¡ So strange! Maybe I drop it along the way¡" The butler started to search for the chopstick on the way he passed before carefully.
¡..
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue already came back to Xiao Hei''s room with a pair of chopsticks on her mouth.
She quickly canceled her [Ethereal Form] the moment she entered the room and put the chopstick in front of her.
Since she cannot dismantle the chopstick with her pair of tiny paws, Tang Li Xue decided to just crush it with force.
Then she took out a tiny slip of paper among the chopsticks'' remain and open it.
''..... I can''t read it! Tsk¡ So they use the coded message!''
If it was other people, they would already have no way to read this slip of paper but Tang Li Xue was different from them! She only lightly tapped the tiny slip of paper then¡
[Do you want toprehend Secret Coded Message with cost 10 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
''Hehehe¡ What a convenient system! This Queen likes you very much! YES!''
Tang Li Xue felt a strange sensation entered her mind for a moment and after it finished, she tried to peek on the coded message written in the tiny slip of paper but this time she could understand everything written in it very clearly.
Chapter 67 - 67: Sorting Out Skills and Divine Abilities!
Chapter 67 - 67: Sorting Out Skills and Divine Abilities!
The message was actually very short but also straight forward.
- Inside the patriarch''s residence, find where the medicine storage box is stored. Steal it if you have chance.-
''What? Medicine storage box? Inside Xiao Hei''s house?''
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment when she read the coded message she got from the butler.
She thought it was an important message like an order from the fatty uncle to poison Xiao Hei or something like that but it turned out they only wanted to steal some medicine box.
This was also the reason why Tang Li Xue did not tell Xiao Hei about the spies on his side before.
She was afraid Xiao Hei would not believe her words so she waited until the right opportunitye and she would have enough evidence to back her words.
''Oh, well¡ Though the information contained in it is not that important, I guess this coded letter could serve as evidence too¡''
After she decided to tell Xiao Hei about the spies by his side, Tang Li Xue prepared a writing brush and ink then started her writing practice.
Unfortunately, her tiny paws can''t even hold the writing brush properly so how could she write using it!
After trying a few times, Tang Li Xue threw the writing brush away in frustration.
Tang Li Xue pondered for a while and her eyes turned bright when she thought: ''Why should I use a writing brush to write?! Just use my finger¡err¡ my w to write!''
She started to dip one of her w into the ck ink then started to practice her writing skill on one of the empty scrolls.
Tang Li Xue''s handwriting was like the mighty dragon dancing in the ocean and fire phoenix flying on the skies.
So mysterious!
Deep and profound!
Unfathomable!
Okay, let''s stop being so poetic¡ To be honest and simple, her handwriting was so awful that it waspletely unreadable.
''This is not my fault, okay?! Fox''s paw is never designed for writing! Okay¡ maybe a little bit, but you can''t me me for this! I live in the slum before and never going to school! Although I am not illiterate in my previous life, you can''t me me to not be able to write in this life!''
Tang Li Xue threw away the writing scroll with her doodle¡ err¡ her handwriting in it and went sulking on the bed.
After thinking for a while¡
Tang Li Xue pped her own furry forehead and swiftly jumped from the bed then started to head toward the study room.
''I am really so stupid! It must be caused by my brain that shrinks because I reincarnated in this tiny fox body! I just need to tell Xiao Hei about the spies! So who says I need to write all of it down?! I just need to borrow some books in the study room and pointing it words by words to Xiao Heiter! Hehehe¡''
She checked many books inside the study room and managed to find tens of books that could help her exin what she wants to Xiao Heiter.
Tang Li Xue put all the books she needs in her Space Pouch and went back to Xiao Hei''s room.
She took all the books out from her Space Pouch and threw it onto the table at the center of the room.
''Now I only need to wait for Xiao Hei to return from work... I still have some time, let''s use it to sorting my skills... Oooh, I almost forget it! I got a new divine ability from eating that Golden Bodhi Fruit! Hopefully, it is another OP divine ability!''
[Golden Body]:
* Increase physical defense and elemental resistance by 50%.
* Reduce any damage received by 30%.
* Reflect back any iing physical attack by 25% (calcted before any defense or damage reduction)
* Increase health regeneration by 100%.
* Any damage you receive below 100 points would be nullified.
''Wooooaaahhh... OP defense type divine ability! This divine ability really came timely just as I need it! Now I really don''t need any defense-type martial soul at all!''
There was no doubt that This [Golden Body] was the best one among the defense type divine abilities since it covered almost all every aspect from increasing physical defense and elemental resistance to health regeneration.
''The heck... it even returns 25% of the damage from physical attack! Sssshhhh... Fierce! It also increases my health regeneration by 100%...bined with my [Self-Healing] ability, it means I can recover 2% of my maximum HP every 10 seconds. AWESOME!''
As for ''nullified any damage below 100 points'', it might sounds unimpressive but in reality, its usefulness was not less than any other OP effect especially when Tang Li Xue fought against many weaker opponents at once.
Imagine if she received 50 points of damage over one thousand times, it means her HP would be decreased more than 50,000 points!
Tang Li Xue nodded her head and her mouth curved upward in satisfaction. She immediately began to activate her [Golden Body] to test its effect.
Different from its name, Tang Li Xue''s body actually did not change into gold but only a faint of golden light wrapped her tiny figure made it as if she was protected by Buddha.
But she was quite disappointed when she found out her current stamina was drained at the speed five times faster than when she activated her [Ethereal Body].
She can maintain her [Golden Body] for at least twenty minutes or so but unlike [Ethereal Body], she should use this [Golden Body] in the fight so her stamina may run out even faster.
If she used it in a fight along with her me of Pride, all of her stamina would bepletely used up in only less than five minutes!
After mull about it for some time, Tang Li Xue started to open her skill list window and look at her current skills.
''Oooh yes... I almost forget that I still had not bought [Innate: Strength] divine ability yet.''
[Greater Strength (Lv3), Deal More Damage (Lv3), Strengthen Muscles (Lv3) can bebined into Divine Ability [Innate: Strength] with cost 4 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''Cheap! YES!''
[You have gained Divine Ability (Innate: Strength)]
[(Innate: Agility), (Innate: Toughness), (Innate: Strength) can bebined into Divine Ability [??????] with cost 300 Skill points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''?????!!!!!''
''WHAT?! Divine Abilities can bebined too?!''
Tang Li Xue ignored everything and quickly took out [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] from her system inventory to look at Divine Abilities information.
[Divine Abilities Tier and How to Upgrades it]
[Note: Please read this section FIRST! Because you reincarnated as a beast to avoid making a mistake since system Skill Point is so valuable and important to waste!]
Tang Li Xue: ''.....''
''Let''s pretend not to see this note section and continue...''
There were seven tiers of divine abilities. From the lowest to the highest were Basic, Intermediate, Advanced, Master, Grandmaster, Divine, and God.
However, every divine abilities tier also divided again into three grades: low, mid, and high grade.
All the divine abilities created from ordinary skills were only Basic-tier divine abilities.
Divine abilities created frombining 2-4 ordinary skills were low-grade.
Divine abilities created frombining 5-8 ordinary skills were mid-grade.
Divine abilities created frombining 9 ordinary skills or more were high-grade.
The higher their grade, the stronger and the greater their effect would be!
However, no matter how high their grades were, they still basic-tier divine abilities in the end.
You would need tobine several basic-tier divine abilities to create intermediate-tier divine abilities and this rule would work until you reach grandmaster-tier divine abilities!
The divine abilities'' grade would also work the same as before, 2-4bination of basic-tier divine abilities would create low-grade divine abilities, and so on.
As for the divine abilities every beast got when they evolve, it depends on their beast grade since the divine abilities they got when they evolve into [Epic] grade should definitely higher tier than when they evolve into [Umon] tier.
P.S:
In short, the Skill Point from the system was very crucial and needed at all times. If you want to create grandmaster-tier divine ability in the future, you probably would need several millions of Skill Points.
I personally suggested for you not to buy any ordinary skills randomly, choose all of it carefully so you can level it up properly andbine itter into powerful divine abilities.
''There are 7 tiers of divine abilities! Sigh... So all of my divine abilities still at basic-tier... and here I think that all of it already so OP.''
''So thebination of [Innate: Agility], [Innate: Toughness], and [Innate: Strength] would be the first intermediate-tier divine ability that I have! Muahahaha... YES!''
[Sorry, your current Skill Points are not enough yet!]
''GOD! SYSTEM! Why do you do this to me?! Gave me a choice but not skill points are the same as showing me delicious food but not allow me to eat it!''
While Tang Li Xue still crying for the system''s injustice, Xiao Hei already went back home and entered the room.
"Xiao Bai, what are you doing? Rolling on the ground like that will make your fur dirty!" Xiao Hei said as he lifted Tang Li Xue from the ground and pats her fur to clean any dust that stuck on her body.
''Okay, that''s enough... now what I should do first to tell him about the spies and traitors?''
Chapter 68 - 68: Trust!
Chapter 68 - 68: Trust!
Tang Li Xue jumped out from Xiao Hei''s embrace onto the top of the table and took one of the books.
"Xiao Bai, those all are my book collections from the study room! Give it back to me, don''t y with all those books anymore! I promise I will bring you a colorful cuju ball tomorrow, how about it?" Xiao Hei tried to persuade Tang Li Xue while reaching his right hand to take his book back.
''This impolite concubine! Who wants your cuju ball?! Stay quiet for a moment!''
However before Xiao Hei could hold the books, Tang Li Xue already pped his hand away and started to flip the book''s page swiftly.
''Xiao Hei, I hope you are smarter than your aide, Feng San!'' Or I would really disown you if you are not able to understand my exnation!''
Tang Li Xue sat on the table and raised the book toward Xiao Hei with her left paw while her right paw began to pointing word by word.
-I¡ want¡ to tell¡ you¡ a secret¡-
Tang Li Xue found it strangely satisfying when she was watching a dumbfounded expression stered on Xiao Hei''s handsome face.
Who knows that insolent Xiao Hei still thought Tang Li Xue was ying around with his books and took this chance to grab all of his books back!
''Bad Xiao Hei! Insolent Xiao Hei! Idiotic Xiao Hei! Give me back all the books! Grrrrr!''
Tang Li Xue bared her fangs against Xiao Hei, she jumped onto him and bit his wrist!
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue still cannot hurt Xiao Hei''s hand at all even when her strength already grew so much stronger thanst time! She could only leave a bite mark on Xiao Hei''s skin.
"Sigh¡ Okay, Okay, whatever Xiao Bai''s like! I can buy it all again anyway although it would be slightly troublesome¡ But nothing can rece my Xiao Bai''s joy after all!" Xiao Hei was smiling full of gentleness as he saw Tang Li Xue that still fuming with rage.
He put all the books back onto the table to let Tang Li Xue y again with it to her heart content. He petted Tang Li Xue''s smooth furry head a few times before going to his bed.
''Damn¡what a troublesome guy! Sigh¡ there is no other choice! Let''s put my seduction skill to work!''
Tang Li Xue also jumped onto the bed and started to snuggle to Xiao Hei''s embrace. She even started to lick Xiao Hei''s face repeatedly and made him itch then started tough.
"Ahahaha¡ Okay, Xiao Bai! You win! I will not go to sleep anymore¡ I will apany you to y tonight! What do you want to y?" Xiao Heiughed while embraced Tang Li Xue''s tiny soft body once again and sat on the bed.
''Okay, that''s enough! Get your naughty hands off me! Urgghhh¡ Why did I start to feel that my pride as a future queen has been sullied? Whatever at least he gets up now¡ Let''s start our business again!''
Tang Li Xue jumped out from Xiao Hei''s embrace andnded back onto the table.
She took another book and started to show it again to Xiao Hei while using her right paw to point at some words like before.
-Uncle¡ secret¡ message¡-
Then Tang Li Xue pushed a slip of tiny paper that contain coded message to Xiao Hei.
Xiao Hei''s yful expression full of smilepletely vanished and reced by his solemn expression the moment he saw the tiny slip of paper.
Tang Li Xue found Xiao Hei''s current expression a bit scary.
She really liked his usual gentle expression that full ofughter when he was with her far more than his current expression.
But Tang Li Xue did not let it bother her for now and she continued to point out some words from the book to Xiao Hei again.
-To¡ steal¡ medicine¡ box¡ from¡ your residence¡-
This time Xiao Hei widened his eyes in surprise and asked in disbelief: "You can read this secret message too?!"
Tang Li Xue quickly nodded with a very smug expression stered on her face.
Xiao Hei almost broke his solemn expression andughs out loud again when he saw how cute Tang Li Xue was acting so arrogantly with her tiny body.
"Cough¡ okay, Xiao Bai, I believe you! Where did you get this secret message from?" Xiao Hei asked again but with a gentle smile on his face, this time and he also pitched Tang Li Xue''s soft furry cheek.
Tang Li Xue put down the book in her paws and took another book. She began to flip it open again like before and show it to Xiao Hei again.
-Your¡Butler¡ receive it¡ from¡ chef¡-
"...¡.. It''s really hard to believe that I have so many moles on my side!" Xiao Hei frowned deeper when he remembered Feng Yi''s betrayal since then he really hated the traitor very much and the trauma also made him much harder to believe all the people beside him.
Tang Li Xue took another book and pointed several words toward Xiao Hei again¡
-Second wind¡ and¡ many¡ more¡ are¡ spices¡-
Yes, you did not read it wrong. She really pointed at ''spices'' words since she cannot find ''spies'' words¡
''You can''t me me for that, okay?! This is not in the modern world where you can find ''spies'' words easily in detective or criminal novels! So this is not my fault!''
Xiao Hei thought for a while on what she means then he stared at Tang Li Xue weirdly and says with a serious tone: "Xiao Bai¡ Feng Er and the other are humans, not spices¡"
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes back and facepalmed when she heard Xiao Hei''s words.
After thinking deeply for a few minutes, the light bulb on her mind shed brightly. She took another book and began to show several words in it to Xiao Hei again.
- Second wind¡ and¡ many¡ more¡ are¡ the same as¡ First¡ wind¡ and¡ I know¡ all¡ their¡ identities¡-
Tang Li Xue used several days to stalk them one by one before to level up her skills andbine them into [Ethereal Form] divine ability.
Xiao Hei stunned for a while, he closed his eyes while mumbling: "So even Feng Er had switched to uncle''s side¡"
Xiao Hei went quiet after that as his finger tap the table rhythmically with his eyes still closed¡
Tang Li Xue could tell from Xiao Hei''s usual habit that this means he began to pondering his next move carefully so she did not disturb him and wait patiently.
Actually, Tang Li Xue already tried to create a quest to tell Xiao Hei about the secret message and spies but who knows that the system did not respond at all!
It looks like the difficulty level to tell Xiao Hei about it and make him believe her words were really low for the system standard. That was why it did not recognize by the system as a quest since he alreadypletely trust her even before she told him about it.
''But why?''
Before she could think of any reason, Xiao Hei already woke up from his deep thinking mode.
Xiao Hei patted Tang Li Xue''s furry head gently the moment he opened his eyes and he asks: "How about this, I will bring you to my office at the sect''s headquarter tomorrow and you will help me identify any spies on my side?"
Tang Li Xue quickly put an act as if she was pondering so hard about it.
"I will make you an extra portion of roasted meat from tomorrow onward! How about it?" Xiao Hei asked while ying with Tang Li Xue''s furry chin with his fingers.
''So stingy! I only rewarded with an extra portion of roasted meat for my hard work and crucial information?!''
Tang Li Xue raised 2 of her ws on her paw¡
''At least make it two extra portions!''
"Hahaha¡ Okay! Deal!" Xiao Heiughed out loud while caressing Tang Li Xue''s furry head with his wide warm palm.
Chapter 69 - 69: Living Like a Queen is so Addictive!
Chapter 69 - 69: Living Like a Queen is so Addictive!
Tang Li Xue was also thinking of how to give the remaining of her ten thousands of pills she got from Pill Storage Room before to Xiao Hei.
She was quite disappointed when she found that after consuming 40-50 pills of the same type, that pills will no longer effective for her and it will not give her anymore EXP.
Although several ten thousand pills were sound so many, but all of those pills only had 10 kinds of pills, and Tang Li Xue almost consumed 50 pills from each kind of pills before when she had 32 times EXP buff.
But of course, Tang Li Xue would not give it to Xiao Hei only for roasted meat this time! She needs a lot of resources to level up after all.
Tang Li Xue nned to trade these several ten thousands of pills inside her Space Pouch with the other kind of resources to help her level up.
Moreover, this time she already found an easy way tomunicate with Xiao Hei, and his performance this time greatly satisfied Tang Li Xue because hepletely trusted her words without any question despite many vague parts in her exnation.
If it was someone else, they would probably begin to interrogate her in detail and ask her many things like ''how did you know it?'', ''Do you have any proof?'', ''Did you really see it with your own eyes?'', and many more.
But Xiao Hei did not do it and he trusted her words easily.
''As This Queen expected from her handpicked concubine! Really trustworthy!''
After Xiao Hei ying around a bit with Tang Li Xue, they immediately lied on the bed and fall asleep together.
¡..
The next morning, Xiao Hei woke up very early like usual but he also woke Tang Li Xue up today since they already nned to go to Sect''s Headquarter together.
As ate riser, Tang Li Xue found it quite hard to wake up as early as Xiao Hei so Xiao Hei could only helplessly brought her in his arm as he headed to the Sect''s Headquarter.
Xiao Hei''s residence and Sect''s Headquarter was not that far.
Xiao Hei was walking slowly, enjoying the sunrise scene at Asura Demon Sect while his hand kept caressing Tang Li Xue''s smooth soft fur in his embrace.
He felt strangely in peace and rxed right now as if all of his burdens had been lifted from his chest at this moment.
Unconsciously, Xiao Hei''s expression that always appeared cold and decisive softened a lot this time.
Even his lips also formed a faint upward curve enhanced his peerless handsome face to another level and make every female disciple that looked at him blushed right now.
After walking for half an hour, Xiao Hei and Tang Li Xue finally arrived at Sect''s Headquarter.
Even thezy and sleepy Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes and examined the majestic building in front of her.
''Woah¡ what a grand building! I wonder how much it cost this sect to make it?''
The building was actually even grander than Elder Lin''s Residence with those golden dragon pirs that support the building and smooth white jade tiles on its floor.
Tang Li Xue also noticed that all the people from guards, disciples, even elders would cup their hands and bowed a bit to her direction every time he passed them but of course they were not bowed toward her but Xiao Hei.
Inside the Sect''s Headquarter, there was a huge grand hall with gigantic Asura Demon Statue stood in the middle of it.
''Wow¡ That big weird demon statue is sparkling! Is it made from the pure gold? Ssssshhhh¡ If I can bring it away from this sect and sell it outside, I wonder how much money I can get from it¡ uwehehehehe¡''
While Tang Li Xue still drowned in her own delusion, Xiao Hei brought her climbing up the wide stairs and they arrived on the second floor.
Different from the first floor where there were countless peoplee and go, the second floor was quite deste since only elders ranking people have the right to ess it.
Of course, the people that the patriarch called on to meet him can go up to this second floor but they must be escorted by the elder.
While Tang Li Xue still in awe on the luxurious things on this second floor likes the antique vases or the precious painting even the floor carpet was made from some demonic beast fur, Xiao Hei brought her to enter his office.
''Uwaaah¡ So this is where Xiao Hei is doing his work every day?! Did he call this his office? Calling this his court should be more appropriate!''
Xiao Hei''s office was really spacious maybe as big as the basketball court!
Xiao Hei walked deeper inside the office and sat on his throne.
At least in Tang Li Xue''s eyes, it was a throne judging from its luxurious material and gaudy design.
He put Tang Li Xue on hisp and says to her: "Xiao Bai, today would be a pretty tiring day for you but endure it, okay? But don''t worry I will order people to bring food here so you will not hungry."
Xiao Hei instructed some people with hismunication talisman to bring them some roasted meats, fresh fruits, and milk into his office immediately.
After that he also ordered all the people in charge of food, guarding, and cleaning his residence toe and meet him in his office soon.
"Xiao Bai, listen! I will call those people in one by one and all you need to do is touching the handle of this chair with your paw if they are spies as the sign, do you understand?" Xiao Hei watched Tang Li Xue solemnly and said with a firm tone.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head continuously like a woodpecker and thumped her furry chest with her paw as if she was saying ''leave it to me''.
Looking at how she acted, Xiao Hei once againughed and said: "Okay Xiao Bai, I am counting on you! I will leave this in your hand¡ I mean in your paw this time! Hahaha¡"
Xiao Hei petted Tang Li Xue''s furry head and waited. Not long after that, some disciples entered the office with several tes of meat dishes and fruits in their hands.
Xiao Hei ordered them to put it on the table beside the throne.
After putting the dishes and fruits all of the disciples excused themselves and went out of Xiao Hei''s office.
Xiao Hei began to feed Tang Li Xue with his own hand as the people that he has been waiting foring in one by one into his office.
''Woah¡this fruit is so sweet and juicy! Delicious! I wonder, what is this fruit? It is like abination of gr.a.p.e and cherry¡''
Tang Li Xue took a look a bit and put her paw on the chair''s handle immediately when the first person entered the room.
"Pat¡ Patriarch¡what would Patriarch want to ask from this humble one?" The person immediately kneeled and asked politely.
"Oh, nothing. I just feel that some of you are working too long at my ce and need relocation to another ce. I will tell you about itter. You can go out and wait on the first floor for now." Xiao Hei said coldly and chased him away from his office.
Just like this Xiao Hei begun to call them to enter one by one while his right hand did not stop feeding Tang Li Xue and his left hand kept stroking her smooth soft fur.
''Ummm¡ Chap~ Chap~ Delicious! Eating delicious food under the care of my concubine while lying on hisp! So this is how the Queen''s live? Living like a Queen is so addictive!''
Chapter 70 - 70: Unfit To Be a Demon Sect Patriarch!
Chapter 70 - 70: Unfit To Be a Demon Sect Patriarch!
After repeating doing this for a few hours, Tang Li Xue started to feel bored and sleepy.
Even when the person entered Xiao Hei''s office was not the spy, Tang Li Xue almost put her paw on the chair''s handle out of reflexes.
Xiao Hei did not know whether tough or angry when he noticed her action. This kind of thing could easily decide people''s lives and she almost several times gave a wrong sign.
Only after the sun almost set Tang Li Xue managed to finish her job and she finally could lie downzily on the big pillow beside Xiao Hei''s seat.
But it did not mean that Xiao Hei''s job was alsopleted.
Several elders started to enter Xiao Hei''s office after that and they discuss many topics.
"The resources supplies were almostpletely exhausted. What should we do?"
"Two of our core disciples went missing in Dragon''s Ravine. Should we send some people to search for them?"
"New disciple''s recruitment this year will start in one month. In which cities we would hold the trials for the new disciples?"
"The Immortal Sword Sect already started their expansion. It would be bad for us if we keep a blind eye on this. Patriarch, what do you think we should do?
¡..
Tang Li Xue went dizzy when she heard all of their questions so she decided to stop thinking about it and lied down back on herfortable pillow.
She also heard that Xiao Hei nned to send all of those spies back to his fatty uncle''s ce.
For this choice, Tang Li Xue could only shake her head in disappointment. It was not because she did not approve Xiao Hei''s decision but because his decision was too soft for a demon sect''s patriarch.
When Tang Li Xue was sick and forced to stay at the hospital, she already read countless web novels and understands enough that as a demon sect''s patriarch, he should be cruel and merciless.
One of the main antagonists in the novel she read even cut all the traitors'' limbs and hang all of them under the sun for a week while kept sprinkling salt onto their body every hour.
After one week the antagonist beheaded all of them personally and hanged all of their head on the sect''s gate as a warning since then all the elders and disciples were so scared at him and no one dared to betray him again.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not want Xiao Hei to be a heartless person like that and it was not like she can make that kind of cruel decision too if she was in Xiao Hei''s shoes right now.
In short, Tang Li Xue was really satisfied with her current concubine right now but as a demon sect''s patriarch, he was simply unfit!
He was decisive butpletelyck the ruthlessness needed as a demon sect leader. He was also too conservative andck of flexibility.
''Sigh¡ If Xiao Hei is in my previous world, he could easily be a sessful CEO with his ability and judgment! But here in this demon sect¡ I don''t know why but I feel it would not work for Xiao Hei at all¡ I feel sooner orter that cunning and ruthless fatty uncle would certainly take his ce as the patriarch¡''
Tang Li Xue started to think about some backup ns for her future.
Unfortunately, she still knew too little about this world and still did not know where she would be headed if she escaped from this demon sect.
She also felt that even with her current strength, she was still too weak to defend herself but at the very least, she still have some mean to escape right now with her [Ethereal Form].
''It looks like I should ask for some guidance from that fake dragon again tomorrow! At least I should know about some safe ces where I can go and dangerous ces where I must avoid at all costs.''
Tang Li Xue could only sigh in her own fate.
If she was reincarnated as a human, she can easily bid her time and be stronger step by step through normal mean like entering some sect when she reaches her adolescent and start to cultivate.
At least she could use the knowledge she got from her previous life to make her life easier.
But now she was reincarnated as a beast and she did not even know where to go!
Back to Moonlight Forest? She already saw some creatures at the depth of Moonlight Forest when she was flying with Xiao Hei. All of them were at the very high level and she immediately realized that she was quite lucky since she did not try to enter deeper into Moonlight Forest or she would definitely die without any of her bones left.
''Moonlight Forest is still too dangerous for me now! I already decided that I wille back there to conquer it after I reach [Rare] grade at the very least...''
.....
Xiao Hei''s work only finished after midnight while Tang Li Xue already fell asleep long ago on the top of afortable pillow beside Xiao Hei''s seat.
Xiao Hei was smiling gently. He carried Tang Li Xue in his arm and brought her back with him to his residence.
Xiao Hei also slept almost immediately after he entered his room and lying on his bed with Tang Li Xue still in his arm.
The next morning, Tang Li Xue woke upte like usual and found out that her Xiao Hei was already gone to work like usual too.
After finished her roasted meat breakfast, Tang Li Xue summoned out her Golden Carp martial soul and made it use its [Refining Spirit Energy] to produce one low-tier spirit stone.
This already became her everyday habit now and she already managed to get 3 low-tier spirit stones so far.
''This thing can be used to cultivate faster, isn''t it? Can I use it to increase my level too? How can I use it anyway? Just pop it in my mouth like a candy?''
Tang Li Xue tried to put one of the low-tier spirit stones into her mouth and it quickly melted on her tongue like ice cream as she started to feel warm energy entering her body.
[EXP gained!]
''Ooooh... not bad at all! I can use it to get EXP and raise my level too! Continue then...''
Unfortunately, she only had 3 low-tier spirit stones before so she consumed all of it in no time.
But now she can also feel the spirit stones advantage over pills after she consumed it.
In short, unlike pills where its efficacy would weaken every time she consumed it, every time she consumed spirit stones the EXP she gained from it was constant.
For example, if she consumed a type of pill for the first time she would get 100 EXP, the second time she would only get 90 EXP, the third time it would decrease to 80 EXP and so on.
But the EXP she got from spirit stones would always be constant at 100 EXP, no matter how many she ate it, she would gain 100 EXP.
Of course, pills also have their own advantage and that was the increase in her stats each time she consumes it which spirit stones did not give to her!
Unfortunately, her stats already reached maximum capacity for her grade so she cannot increase it anymore until she evolves!
The things she needed the most right now was EXP!
''I already decided! I will trade all of my pills for spirit stones with Xiao Hei tonight!''
Chapter 71 - 71: Trading!
Chapter 71 - 71: Trading!
After decided what she wanted to do, Tang Li Xue immediately put it into motion.
Although she trusted Xiao Hei but she did not want him to know her space pouch secret since this space pouch did not belong to hers.
She would feel bad if Xiao Hei decided to take it from her even though that possibility was small judging from her Xiao Hei''s straightforward personality.
Xiao Hei''s residence was so huge no less than Elder Lin''s ce but many his rooms were left unused.
Tang Li Xue started to load several empty rooms full of her pill bottles.
After working for several hours she managed to fill more than ten rooms full of her pill bottles.
''Now I only need to wait for Xiao Hei to go back home. Fortunately, all the servants are usually clean the room only in the morning or who knows if they will notice when I put all of my pill bottles in those rooms.''
Tang Li Xue waited until midnight and she started to felt very sleepy but when she almost fell asleep, her sharp ears heard the door opening sound from the entrance.
She immediately stood up and jumped on to the top of the table then took one of the books but Tang Li Xue frowned in an instant when Xiao Hei entered the bedroom.
The pungent smell of wine came from Xiao Hei''s body was so stink that Tang Li Xue wanted to pinch her own nose so badly but unfortunately, her paws did not have any thumb.
''This bast*rd surely is annoying as hell! Why does he have to get drunk today? And when I filled all those rooms with my pill bottles today!''
"Xiao Bai~~ Let''s sleep together now!" Xiao Hei said as he was staggering a bit toward Tang Li Xue.
Xiao Hei wanted to hug her but she immediately dodged him and jumped to the corner of the table.
When Xiao Hei closed enough to her, she jumped back and kicked a teapot toward him. The cold tea sttered to Xiao Hei''s face and clothes.
"What are you¡" Xiao Hei wanted to shout in anger to Tang Li Xue but before he could finish his words Tang Li Xue already held a book and show some words to him.
-You¡ stink¡ quickly¡ take a bath¡ first! I¡ have something¡ to discuss.-
Tang Li Xue did not want to hear his answer anymore and went out of the room since the room stank with wine smell so badly. When her sensitive nose that already augmented by her [Enhanced Sense of Smell] divine ability smelt that, she almost fainted immediately.
"You¡ You¡" Xiao Heipletely dumbfounded and did not know what he wanted to say anymore. He should be the first patriarch in history that ever got scolded by his own pet.
After waiting at the living room for ten minutes or so, Xiao Hei finally finished his bath and came to met Tang Li Xue with a sulking expression.
Tang Li Xue has already prepared her book and started to point some words by words with her paw to Xiao Hei.
-I have¡ something important¡ to trade¡ with you¡ today¡-
Xiao Hei chuckled when he saw Tang Li Xue''s message and ask: "What do you want to trade with me? Roasted meat? Hahahaha¡"
Tang Li Xue was toozy to exin it to her dummy Xiao Hei so she only waved her paw to Xiao Hei, signaling him to follow her.
After walking through the corridor, Tang Li Xue pointed her paw to the first room after the long corridor.
Xiao Hei frowned while thinking: ''what kind of prank that Xiao Bai wants to y this time?''
But when he opened the room''s door and spotted the pill bottles that filled the entire room to the brim, Xiao Hei could only drop his jaw in surprise. He even pinched his cheek again and again to certain that this was not in a dream.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in satisfaction when she saw Xiao Hie''s foolish expression as if she was saying ''this is how you should act from the start!''
Xiao Hei tried to open one of the pills bottles with his trembling hand then he sniffed the content carefully with his nose.
"How could it be?! It''s real!" Xiao Hei screamed and looking at Tang Li Xue oddly.
Tang Li Xue put her smug face and looked back at Xiao Hei then pointed her paw to the other rooms where she put the rest of her pill bottles before.
When Xiao Hei checked all the rooms, he turned even more dumbfounded and almost stumbled silly when he saw these many pills in front of him. All of the rooms were filled with pill bottles to the brim, there were at least ten thousands of pill bottles in total.
Even Xiao Hei needs many spatial rings to store all of them in the end.
"Xiao Bai! You are really my lucky star! Hahaha... What do you want to trade? Just say it to me! I will do what I can to get it!" Xiao Hei was smiling ear to ear while kept petting Tang Li Xue gently in his embrace.
When they came back into Xiao Hei''s bedroom, Tang Li Xue jumped out from his arms and took one of the books on the table.
After she flipped several pages, Tang Li Xue raised the book toward Xiao Hei and pointed 2 words from the book.
''Spirit... stones...''
"Spirit stones? Do you really want spirit stones?" Xiao Hei was quite surprised since the beast usually cannot use spirit stones to cultivate, only humans can use it to cultivate.
For the beasts, all of them were using vitality stones to increase their strength. Unfortunately, humans would not be able to buy any vitality stones at all since human and beast rtionship was currently very hostile.
Hostile was actually an understatement to describe it since they basically kill each other on sight...
In fact, only a few demon sects like Asura Demon Sect was still using beasts as their mount.
However, Xiao Hei did not ask her anything about it since Tang Li Xue herself did not exin it to him.
Everyone has their own secret after all and Xiao Hei did not really care about them. He already filled with gratitude toward his Xiao Bai now since the resource problem already reached a critical state.
But right now with all of these pills from Tang Li Xue, Xiao Hei could resupply back the almost empty resource warehouses andst longer to find several new alchemists to join the sect. Xiao Heiughed and took out a tiny box from his personal spatial ring then put in on the table in front of Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue frowned as she thinks: ''This box is so tiny! Are Xiao Hei try to scam me because he thinks that I am a beast and only give me one low-tier spirit stone?!''
Tang Li Xue''s mood started to turn sour but she still gritted her teeth and tried to open the tiny box from Xiao Hei with her paw.
BOOOOOOM~~!
Chapter 72 - 72: Martial Soul Evolve!
Chapter 72 - 72: Martial Soul Evolve!
The dense amount of spirit energy blew out from the tiny box the moment Tang Li Xue opened it, even Tang Li Xue almost pushed backward by it
''What is this? It looks like spirit stone... but why...''
This time Xiao Hei was the oneughing at Tang Li Xue dumbfounded expression as he exins it to her: "Surprised? This is a spirit stone too but a mid-tier one. The energy contained inside it has the same amount as 1,000 low-tier spirit stones. It should be enough for you, right?"
Actually, all of Tang Li Xue''s pills added were not worth as much as even half of this mid-tier spirit stone since every spirit stones were very precious and rare after all but Xiao Hei did not mind it at all and still gave it to her.
Tang Li Xue did not know that Xiao Hei already ordered his people to find or buy vitality stones for Tang Li Xue since the first time they arrived back at Asura Demon Sect.
Unfortunately, vitality stones were simply too rare and humans have no way to buy it since only some special-type high-ranking beasts can condense it from their own blood.
At first, Xiao Hei wanted to use this mid-tier spirit stone for his breakthrough to Core Formation Stageter but he changed his mind after he found out that Tang Li Xue need it and he decided to give it to her in the end.
''The same as 1,000 low-tier spirit stones!!!''
Tang Li Xue was not a fool either.
Although Tang Li Xue did not know how much all of her pills worth but at least she knew that this mid-tier spirit stone worth should be far more than her all of her pills.
She believes Xiao Hei can also resolve his sect resource problem if he traded this mid-tier spirit stone to 1,000 low-tier spirit stones and used it to buy the huge amount of pills.
The reason Xiao Hei did not do it should be because he was also in dire need of this mid-tier spirit stone. Tang Li Xue guessed that most likely he nned to use this mid-tier spirit stone for his cultivation breakthrough.
Tang Li Xue was really moved by Xiao Hei''s gift this time, she immediately jumped to Xiao Hei and licking his handsome face several times.
"Hahaha... okay, Xiao Bai... let''s go to sleep! It''s already sote now." Xiao Hei hugged Tang Li Xue and brought her to bed.
.....
Tomorrow morning after Tang Li Xue finished her roasted meat breakfast, she took out the tiny box which she got from Xiao Hei yesterday and put it on the table in front of her.
''Okay, I am fully ready now! My target today is evolving my martial soul and breakthrough to Qi Condensation Stage!''
But before that, Tang Li Xue took out her [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] from her system inventory and read all information about Qi Condensation Stage.
[Basic Knowledge about Qi Condensation Stage]
Martial Soul and Cultivation Art were actually closely rted.
If someone had the me-type martial soul then it means that person had talent in me-type Cultivation Art. They can obtain a double result with half effort if he cultivates me-type Cultivation Art.
On the contrary, if someone has the me-type martial soul but he was cultivating water-type Cultivation Art, he would not be able to progress at all!
Tang Li Xue started to ponder deeply. She started to imagine if she chose [Venomous Purple Snake]¡
''Isn''t that means I have to cultivate poison type cultivation artter? No way! I don''t want it!''
The first cultivation art was really important since it would make someone formed the Qi with an element ording to the cultivation art they chose.
For example, when someone breakthrough to Qi Condensation Stage with Lightning-type cultivation art then they would have formed Lightning-type Qi! They would be able to change their cultivation art but not their Qi element.
In short, they could choose another lightning-type cultivation art in the future but they cannot cultivate another element cultivation art!
''In Qi Condensation Stage, the cultivator can choose any element from 5 basic elementals: fire, water, lightning, earth, wind. When they reach the Nascent Soul Stage, they can choose one more elemental from the two bnce elementals: light and darkness! Interesting¡ but it did not even say anything about poison elemental?''
What a headache¡if she chose [Venomous Purple Snake] as her martial soul then what Qi element she should choose to formter? It looks like she really did not have any fate with this snake martial soul¡
''Since I did not want to choose the defense evolution path too then I only have one option left¡ only this [Flying Golden Fish]¡''
Tang Li Xue inhaled deeply, she gritted her teeth and chose [Flying Golden Fish] on her martial soul evolution list window.
[You choose support evolution path (Flying Golden Fish) as your martial soul development. Are you sure? Yes/No]
''YES!''
BWOOOSH~~!
''Uh¡ this looks bad! I should choose the more secluded ce next time!''
The bright golden light that wasing out from her Golden Carp martial soul started to spread to the entire residence.
Even some servants and maids that were currently cleaning Xiao Hei courtyard right now started to notice the blinding golden lighting out from inside Xiao Hei residence.
''Dammit! Quick! Please, be quick! This is really bad! Many people should already notice it!''
Fortunately, under Xiao Hei''smand no butler, servant, or maid dare to enter his residence now. But some of Xiao Hei''s personal guards still came in and started to check what happened inside the residence.
The dazzling golden light was getting more and more intense in every passing second.
It even made Tang Li Xue cannot open her eyes anymore to see it including all the guards that tried to check it, they also cannot see anything right now!
Only after ten minutes or so, the blinding golden light started to weaken signaling that Tang Li Xue''s martial soul evolution process had already done.
Tang Li Xue did not want anyone to see her martial soul so she immediately unsummoned it back and activated her [Ethereal Form].
Tang Li Xue easily went out from Xiao Hei''s residence unnoticed so when Xiao Hei''s personal guards inspected the entire residence, they cannot find anything even after searching it for several times.
However, Tang Li Xue decided not to go to the fake dragon''s ce because even the fake dragon would probably find it strange if Tang Li Xue suddenly showed her martial soul.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue also knew that the fake dragon really hated all humans, who knew if the fake dragon started to suspect Tang Li Xue''s identity as a former human.
So she only finds some secluded ce near the ancestral hall and impatiently summoned her martial soul out.
Tang Li Xue started to inspect her martial soul''s current appearance first.
It actually did not change much from before except it had a pair of pigeon-like wings but the color was golden too the same as its body.
It also has a small golden light with a ring shape floating on the top of its head.
Its golden color also turned even brighter than before and it even kept emitting out some faint golden light from its entire body.
Unfortunately, the martial soul size did not change at all. It was still as big as an a.d.u.l.t palm.
''Is that an angel halo? Woah¡ It looks cooler than I thought! It also looks sacred and holy as I expect from priest type martial soul!''
Tang Li Xue immediately opened her martial soul status to check all of its new skills.

''Eeh¡ only increase it for 15%? But overall¡ what does it mean? So it not only increases HP recovery but also Qi and stamina recovery?! Not bad a buff! If only its percentage increased by another 100% or 200%! ''
However, Tang Li Xue was still severely underestimated this buff since ''overall recovery stats'' did not mean only stats like HP, stamina, Qi, etc but she would find it out in the near future.
''Another useless skill! What is this [Flight] for?! Doesn''t all martial soul can float on the air?! What a waste of skill slot! Sigh¡ But the good news is the [Swimming] skill evolves into [Water Affinity]!''
[Water Affinity]: Flying Golden Fish would be a lot stronger in the water (the effect would only activate in water).
*Increased movement speed by 3 times.
*Increased all stats by 2 times.
*Increased all of its water/ice elemental attack by 100%.
*Decreased all water/ice elemental damage received by 50%.
Tang Li Xue almost kneeled when she read this Unique Skill''s effect. Her [Flying Golden Fish] martial soul was clearly a water-type predator!
''Ssshhhh¡ What an OP Unique Skill! No wonder this [Flying Golden Fish] has low stats so its true strength could only exhibit in the water! Eh¡ then what is this [Water Sense] passive skill''s effect?''
[Water Sense]: Flying Golden Fish was not only capable of breathing underwater but it can also sense the vibrations in water made them capable to detect everything inside the water in radius 120 meters.
''Not bad at all! So it''s underwater detection ability! Tsk¡ it really is a full-fledged water predator!''
[Lucky Halo] was still the same as usual but Tang Li Xue guessed that its effect should be enhanced.
The number of low-tier spirit stones that [Refining Spirit Energy] could produce increased to five per day now.
But Tang Li Xue faced a new dire problem right now!
''What a headache! My martial soul is a water-type! While I need fire-type cultivation art to continue to nurture me of Pride and make it stronger! Water and fire are two damn opposite elements!''
If it was other people, they would probably hit a dead end when they met with this kind of problem. In the end, they will decide to choose only one of them.
However, Tang Li Xue was different!
She has her [Premium Cultivation Voucher] from the system so she can choose one cultivation art that suitable for her the most from countless cultivation arts!
''Fuuuh¡ I hope I can find a fire-water elemental cultivation method with this [Premium Cultivation Voucher].''
[Premium Cultivation Voucher has been activated! You can choose any top cultivation/martial art manual you want!]
''Woaaahhh¡ TOP! It has TOP words on it so all manuals contained inside should be more precious than [Cultivation Voucher]! Okay¡ I would no longer hesitate then! Here Ie!''
[Time and Space Emperor Scripture]
Just the first choice was already so good and made Tang Li Xue almost cannot hold her greed.
Tang Li Xue inhaled her breath deeply and continues to scroll down to see which cultivation method/art that suits her requirement.
[Divine Dragon Supreme Art]
[Celestial Emperor Secret Manual]
[Void God Martial Scripture]
[Nine Firmament Hegemon Body Art]
''Tsk, tsk, tsk¡ what the hell with all of these arts? Aren''t they too powerful? Sigh¡ shows all of these arts to me now are no different from teasing me with delicious foods but I cannot even touch them!''
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and continues her searching.
[Nine Sun God Legendary Method]
[Heaven Shattering Spell]
After searching for a while, Tang Li Xue finally managed to find one cultivation art that suits her current stage and need.
[Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art]
''Honestly, I want to find a lower-tier cultivation art with only water and fire element but all of the methods in the list are too high tier! Oh well¡ whatever¡ this is the most suitable cultivation art for me now so let''s choose this!''
The reason for Tang Li Xue''s hesitation was because the higher-tier of cultivation art should be harder to cultivate than the lower-tier one!
Usually, people cultivate the lower-tier one first before changing their cultivation art to the higher-tier after they reached the higher cultivation stage to make it easier. The principle was the same as ascending the stair.
But Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice right now since the system list did not show her any lower-tier cultivation art!
[Are you sure you want to choose the Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art? Yes/No]
''Hopefully, my mind can withstand it¡ YES!''
BAAAAANG!
Like before, all the information about Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art rushed into her brain like a broken dam.
Although this kind of knowledge injection was the most efficient way to transfer knowledge but the side effect if it failed was also horrible.
If the knowledge receiver mind cannot withstand the impact, their mind could be crippled, and they would be idiot for the rest of their life!
The amount of knowledge she received about [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] this time was surely many times more than before when she got [Body Tempering Stage Secret].
Tang Li Xue could felt her splitting headache bing even more severe every second!
She could feel something inside her mind started to tear apart but she kept gritting her teeth and enduring it!
''GUUUUUUUAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHH!''
After a few minutes, her splitting headache finally started to subside bit by bit signify that the knowledge injecting process was already over.
Tang Li Xue''s limp body immediately slumped onto the floor as she started to breathe heavily, her face also full of tears and snots because of the immense pain in her mind before.
''Hosh¡ hosh¡ hosh¡ That was crazy! The pain I felt is like someone opened up my brain, stuffed all the knowledge books inside it, and closed it back again!''
When Tang Li Xue tried to recall the [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] from her mind, she can only recall the basic information about it.
It looks like her mind was really not strong enough to contain all of [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] but for now, she can choose one part of it to recall and she can cultivate that part first before her mind gets strong enough then she could remember more parts.
[Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] have divided into four parts ording to four mythical guardian beasts in legend: white tiger, ck tortoise, azure dragon, and crimson phoenix. Each part divided again into 10yers ording to 10 ranks of every cultivation stage.
In other words, she could cultivate this [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] for four cultivation stages until she reached the peak of the Core Formation Stageter! Different from [Body Tempering Stage Secret] where she could only cultivate it for one full stage until she reached the peak of Body Tempering Stage.
Moreover, each mythical guardian beast also held a different element.
The white tiger has wind element.
The ck tortoise has water element.
The azure dragon has lightning element.
The crimson phoenix has fire element.
''So I can cultivate 4 different elements now?! Woaaaah¡ so great! But the question now is¡ which element should I cultivate first?''
Chapter 74 - 74: Phoenix Awakening
Chapter 74 - 74: Phoenix Awakening
''And... Aren''t these four guardian beasts strange? The heck is this Crimson Phoenix? It should be Vermillion Bird, isn''t it? Azure dragon should have the wood element! While this white tiger should have the metal element! At least in my previous world''s legend, it says so...''
However, it was all made sense because the fundamental elementalw in this Immortal World was already different from Tang Li Xue''s previous world. Even the five basic elements in this world were not wood, fire, metal, water, and earth.
''What aplicated world... I should really try to learn more about this worldter! Hmmm... Since I already have a support-type martial soul then I will choose a fire element first to increase my offense! I can choose the water elementter when I breakthrough to Acupuncture Opening Stage anyway!''
After Tang Li Xue determined what element she wanted to choose, the fire elemental part of [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] in her mind immediately cleared and she canpletely recall all of the Crimson Phoenix''s part from her memory easily.
''Connect the fire element in nature with the energy of heaven and earth then start to .u.mte it inside Dantian¡ Uwaaah¡ I can''t even understand any of these things¡ It looks like I need to expend some Deity Coins toprehend it as usual.''
[Do you want toprehend Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art (Crimson Phoenix) with cost 210 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
''210 Deity Coins! It''s quite expensive! I only spend 30 Deity Coins before to learn [Body Tempering Secret Manual]! Oh well, I have over 2,000 Deity Coins anyway¡ Yes!''
After spending 210 Deity Coins, Tang Li Xue instantly understood all the Crimson Phoenix part of [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] as if the fog covered that part in her mind has vanished.
Tang Li Xue took out Xiao Hei''s tiny box from her space pouch and opened it.
''Qi Condensation Stage here Ie!''
Tang Li Xue opened her [Shared EXP] window and set her cultivation percentage to 100%.
[Shared EXP Status:]
[Level: 0%]
[Cultivation: 100%]
[Martial Soul: 0%]
Then she held the mid-tier spirit stone with both of her paws and started to lick it like ice cream.
The mid-tier spirit stone was as big as a fist so she cannot just pop it into her mouth like low-tier spirit stones or she would be choked to death.
The steady stream of energy started to flow into Tang Li Xue''s body and it immediately turned into EXP by the system.
Tang Li Xue did not idle either, she quickly began her cultivation ording to the Crimson Phoenix part of [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] in her mind.
The Crimson Phoenix part of [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] can only be cultivated in a very hot ce full of fire and Yang element but it did not apply to Tang Li Xue since she already assimted with the high-ranking me, the me of Pride!
When Tang Li Xue started to use the energy she got from the mid-tier energy stone to cultivating [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] while imagined the Crimson Phoenix majestic form in her mind.
The temperature around Tang Li Xue began to rise rapidly as she could hear some faint chirping sound from time to time.
The me of Pride which alreadyying dormant for some days starts to grow restless and excited.
The grasses and nts around Tang Li Xue started to burn and it kept getting wider every passing second.
Not long after the me of Pride inside Tang Li Xue''s Dantian can no longer waiting and it also began to release some steady deep blue me out to help Tang Li Xue''s breakthrough.
Tang Li Xue''s body has engulfed by the massive deep blue mes in an instant.
The crimson me and deep blue me started to rise out from her tiny furry body, the two kinds of different mes began to dance around. It was extremely beautiful and gorgeous but the extreme heat emitting from both of them was enough to turn anything near them into nothingness.
Tang Li Xue''s [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] converted the crimson and deep blue mes into the string of fire elemental Qi and send them back to her Dantian.
She immediately used the string of fire elemental Qi to condense her own personal me Qi inside her Dantian!
The process actually took a few days toplete!
Fortunately, no one dares toe to this ancestral hall without any permission from the Patriarch except on a special day like New Year Celebration to pray so no one notice what Tang Li Xue doing.
YIIIIIIIIII~~!
The loud phoenix cry resounded through the entire ancestral hall!
After almost a week, Tang Li Xue''s me Qi finally fully condensed in the form of Crimson Phoenix and she officially stepped into Qi Condensation Stage from now on.
Although the Crimson Phoenix in her Dantian was still very indistinct but it would be more tangible and her me would also be even more powerful when her cultivation reaches the higher stage in the future.
However, when Tang Li Xue decided to end her cultivation session something unexpected happened!
The me of Pride inside her actually started to fly toward the Crimson Phoenix image and slowly merged with it!
''What the hell is happening here? What is this naughty little me nning to do now?''
Tang Li Xue found it really baffling when she saw the Crimson Phoenix and the me of Pride merged.
Phoenix''s crimson color began to change into deep blue color, its form also turned more and more distinct!
''Oh, my Gawd! What happen here?! Do not tell me the Phoenix in my Dantian would reallye alive!''
The deep blue Phoenix''s dull eyes also started to regain rity and turned even brighter as if it gained consciousness. Its intelligence also began to shine from the deepest part of its eyes.
YYYYIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~~!
The long and loud phoenix cry echoed through the entire Asura Demon Sect as it flew out from Tang Li Xue''s Dantian and soaring through the skies!
Ancestral Hall and all the buildings near it including its courtyard was burned to nothingness by the Phoenix deep blue fire as it flew out, the intense heat was engulfing the entire area fiercely leaving nothing behind but sandy soil!
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock and she also began to panic when the deep-blue Phoenix flew out from her Dantian and soaring onto the skies.
''I will be really screwed if that Phoenix doesn''te back!''
The deep-blue phoenix was not only representing me of Pride but also her Qi Condensation Core!
If it was missing then for her, it would be no different than getting her Dantian crippled since she was no longer able to cultivate!
Fortunately, the deep-blue phoenix flew back after ten minutes venturing on the skies and it entered back into her Dantian.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and she also started to observe the blue phoenix in her Dantian with her inner sight.
The Phoenix covered by the deep-blue mes, it really looks very majestic and gorgeous. It also still has some crimson mes burning on its long tails. Thebination of crimson and blue color made this Phoenix looks far more powerful and imposing than the ordinary Phoenix.
Tang Li Xue swore this blue Phoenix snorted at her in disdain for a moment like how me of Pride did to her before.
The blue Phoenix no longer paid any attention to her as it immediately closed its crimson eyes to rest.
''Is it really merged? So this blue Phoenix is the current form of me of Pride? Oh well... At least it bes stronger now so it also means that I also be even stronger than before...''
Tang Li Xue checked her current status

''Not bad, all of my stats increased by 200 points! If I reach the peak of the Qi Condensation Stage I will get my stats increased by 2000 points! Uwehehehehe... oh wait... what is this? The me of Pride evolved into Blue Phoenix of Pride? But it still embryo though...''
Overall, Tang Li Xue was very satisfied with her power up this time.
Chapter 75 - 75: Exposed!
Chapter 75 - 75: Exposed!
Tang Li Xue looked at the mid-tier spirit stone in her paws.
She was quite surprised when she found that mid-tier spirit stone only shrunk a bit even after that intense breakthrough since it should use quite arge amount of energy inside the mid-tier spirit stone.
''This mid-tier spirit stone should be enough for my martial soul to reach its maximum level capacity! So after I evolve into [Umon] grade beast, my martial soul could also follow me up and evolve into [Umon] grade too!''
Tang Li Xue stored the mid-tier spirit stone back into Xiao Hei''s tiny box and threw it into her space pouch.
Tang Li Xue realized that she made a veryrgemotion and many people woulde here soon to check out what happened so she immediately activated her [Ethereal Form] and dashed back toward Xiao Hei''s residence with her full speed.
''I hope Xiao Hei doesn''t worry too much about me since I have been missing for almost a week this time¡''
But along her way Tang Li Xue something strange really soon¡
''Strange¡ isn''t this too quiet here? I have a really bad feeling about this! Let''s rush quicker back home!'' Though Tang Li Xue as she activated her [Sprint] skill in an instant, her silhouette turned more blurry as her speed increased even more.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned more solemn as she did not find any people on her way. Usually, if this kind of bigmotion happened, it should attract many crowds of disciples and elders to investigate it.
But right now, she cannot find any people on the way!
''There should be something bigger and more urgent happening right now! So important that they all have no time to look after themotion I created!''
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a moment but she still decided toe back to Xiao Hei''s room in the end. At least, she could leave some message for Xiao Hei so he would not be too worried about her before she checks what exactly happen.
The skies already went dark the moment Tang Li Xue returned to Xiao Hei''s residence. She immediately went into Xiao Hei''s room to check if he still waiting for her out of worry.
Tang Li Xue spotted a person silhouette at the Xiao Hei room''s window.
''Aiyah... he really is waiting for me! Sigh... what excuse can I give to him now? I can''t tell him that I breakthrough to Qi Condensation Stage, can''t I? Sigh... what a headache!''
Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form] the moment she entered the room. She lowered her head and put a pitiful expression on her face so she could only hope to not get scold by Xiao Hei this way.
"So you are here..."
Tang Li Xue''s nerve immediately tensed the moment she heard this voice! She stared at the person in front of her in disbelief. While that person also stared back at her with his cold eyes.
''Impossible! How could he be here?!''
XIAO HEI''S UNCLE!
MO CHONGLIN!
He was inside Xiao Hei''s room!
Moreover, Tang Li Xue could feel it that Mo Chonglin''s divine sense already locked on to her if she trying to do something suspicious, Mo Chonglin would certainly crush her as easily as he would crush an ant.
''Calm down, Tang Li Xue! So what if he is here! Maybe he wants to talk about some business with Xiao Hei! It is alsopletely normal for an uncle to visit his nephew, isn''t it? I just need to pretend and act like a stupid animal until Xiao Hei back and everything will be fine! Hopefully, he didn''t notice anything strange when I use my [Ethereal Form] to enter this room...''
Tang Li Xue was currently gambling that Mo Chonglin did not know anything about her and he was only waiting here for Xiao Hei toe back home.
Tang Li Xue started to walk away casually like azy cat to the corner of the room. She jumped to the top of the pet basket and started to lie downzily.
The pet basket was veryfortable with the soft pillow inside it.
This pet basket was prepared by Xiao Hei for Tang Li Xue when they first arrived at Asura Demon Sect but she never uses it and always slept at Xiao Hei''s bed every time.
Xiao Hei also never forced her to sleep at the pet basket so they always slept together on Xiao Hei''s bed in the end.
But Mo Chonglin sat on the chair near the bed and Tang Li Xue did not want to get close to him so she could only choose to lie down on this pet basket in the end.
Well, she cannot run away from here anyway since Mo Chonglin would surely make his move and kill her the moment she activated her [Ethereal Form]!
''I am at the corner of the room... I could just activate my [Ethereal Form] and jump back toward the wall behind me to escape! But I doubt that the wall can actually protect me from this lunatic attack... sigh... let''s just wait and see for now!''
Mo Chonglin did not mind her at all. He raised the cup on the table and sipping it slowly to enjoy it.
"That blue phoenix is extremely beautiful... it must be the high-ranking blue me that I gave to Lin Xiang before, right? It seems that is Lin Xiang''s fate to not ever get his hands on that me in this lifetime." Mo Chonglin saidzily as he put his cup back onto the table.
''!!!''
"But I never regret it fell into your hands... just that ''beautiful blue phoenix soaring onto the skies'' view is already worthy enough for me to exchange for that me. At least that blue me would not be wasted in your hands." This time Mo Chonglin talked while kept staring at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue immediately stood up and took her battle stance!
She was sure that Mo Chonglin knew something about her right now!
But she was not sure how far Mo Chonglin knew about her!
"Lin Xiang was on the verge of dying a few days ago. He cannot be cured or saved anymore so I decided to use Soul Scour Technique to read his mind. And guess what... Who knows that I found something really interesting! The main culprit of all those incidents is actually not even a human!" Mo Chonglinughed hard when he said his story as if he just told something really funny but Tang Li Xue''s mind turned dizzy the moment she heard it.
Chapter 76 - 76: Mo Chonglins Offer!
Chapter 76 - 76: Mo Chonglin''s Offer!
''What?!''
Tang Li Xue''s eyes widened when she heard what Mo Chonglin said. She did not know exactly what was Soul Scour Technique was but she was sure the moment Mo Chonglin use that skill to Elder Lin, Elder Lin would surely die on the spot.
Mo Chonglin''s cruelness this time was greatly surprised Tang Li Xue. He could even kill his people with his own hands without any hesitation at all!
''Dammit! What to do now? Runaway? NO! He already locked me down with his divine sense! The moment I make my move he would surely kill me!''
Tang Li Xue was not confident enough to gamble her life to activate her [Ethereal Form]. What if Mo Chonglin attacked her not with a physical attack but with an elemental attackter? She would certainly die in regret if that happens!
Tang Li Xue''s mind spun with great speed trying to find some way to flee but she cannot find any opening at all but it did not mean she did not have any other way to escape!
She still has two trump cards in her system inventory!
Her first trump card was of course herst [Greater Lucky Sticker] but she already nned to use it for her evolutionter so she immediately rejected the idea to use it now.
Her second andst trump card she ns to use was [Substitute Doll]! The item from the system cannot be seen or detected by anyone other than Tang Li Xue anyway!
But still, Mo Chonglin was not a fool if he realized that Tang Li Xue was doing funny, he would surely kill her without any hesitation!
Tang Li Xue rxed her body andying back down on the soft pillow.
Her eyes still locked on Mo Chonglin but one of her paws stealthily took the [Substitute Doll] from system inventory and put it in front of her.
Now she only needs to insert her fur into the [Substitute Doll] to activate it!
In Mo Chonglin''s eyes, Tang Li Xue was already given up on running away from him and she was only feeling a bit restless under his watch so he did not mind her suspicious moves.
Mo Chonglin was smiling when he saw Tang Li Xue rxed back and continue to say: "As I expect, you really are a smart fox. I don''t know where my nephew found you but his luck is truly making me envy him so much."
"Since you can enter Elder Lin without being found before, I guess you also have two great abilities¡ no, it should be four. Your first ability should be to turn yourselfpletely invisible. The second one should be the ability to conceal yourself deeply made youpletely undetectable even with divine sense, smell¡ Wait, it even covers your footprint and trail¡ such a magical ability!" Mo Chonglin put his finger on his chin and started to analyze Tang Li Xue''s abilities.
''This damn monster! He already peeks into Elder Lin''s memory! Is there any need to say all of these to me again?!''
Tang Li Xue did not know that in Elder Lin''s memory, there was only her image when she used her me of Pride. Elder Lin did not even see clearly when she used her [Heaven Splitting Wave (7thyer)] to hit his crotch before if not Elder Lin would already dodge it.
So what Mo Chonglin said right now was only based on his own analysis on the situation in Elder Lin''s residence before and he alsobined it with the memory he got from Elder Lin.
"You can also avoid all the traps then enter the locked Pill Storage Room and the Safe Room as you like so I guess you have the ability to pass through the wall and all obstacles. Oh, my sect physician also said that Elder Lin''s wound on his crotch is caused by the strong prative strike on the same level as my [Heaven Splitting Wave]." Mo Chonglin''s face was still smiling as if he only told some child story to her but each of his words made Tang Li Xue shuddered.
All the traps set at Elder Lin''s ce was ording to Mo Chonglin''s arrangement so he surely doubted Tang Li Xue was smart enough to see through all the traps and she could avoid all of it under all the guards'' eyes then entered the fully locked mansion with all of its arrays. So his final conclusion was Tang Li Xue had the ability to pass through the wall and all obstacles like traps and arrays!
"So yourst skill should be copying any technique you see, right? When I arrived at Pill Storage Room at that time, I felt something observing me so I attacked with my [Heaven Splitting Wave] without thinking. You must be copied my [Heaven Splitting Wave] at that time and used it against Elder Lin after that. What smart fox you are!" Mo Chonglin said all of this was to pressure Tang Li Xue even more.
This was another deduction he got after his physician inspected Elder Lin''s wound and the one that the most familiar with [Heaven Splitting Wave] was no other than Mo Chonglin himself so he was really sure that Elder Lin''s wound caused by 7thyer of [Heaven Splitting Wave].
In Mo Chonglin''s opinion, no matter how smart Tang Li Xue, she would surely never be able to learn the high-grade human martial art skill in one month! Moreover, it was impossible for her to use [Heaven Splitting Wave] as proficient as him in only one month!
So he concluded that the only answer was she copied his technique!
When?
In this one month, Mo Chonglin was only ever used his [Heaven Splitting Wave] once and it was in the Pill Storage Room at Elder Lin''s Residence!
"It looks like your ability would allow you to avoid the physical attack but I wonder if you would be able to avoid elemental attack too such as this¡"Mo Chonglin rise his palm and a bolt of dense purple lightning condensed on the top of his palm.
Mo Chonglin was very sure that his attack in the Pill Storage Room hit Tang Li Xue perfectly but since she can still survive until now without any injuries, the answer should be that any physical attack would not be able to hurt her, the same as how she could pass through all physical objects!
But Mo Chonglin refused to believe that she even immune to elemental attack too! Since if she also immune to elemental attack did it mean she was already invincible? Why did she need to be so cautious in front of him now? She could just active her skill and run away from him!
Tang Li Xue felt her cold sweat starting to pour down from her forehead. If she activated her [Ethereal Form] and rashly trying to escape before, she should already turn into a meat paste by now!
While Mo Chonglin busily talked Tang Li Xue already stuffed her fur into the [Substitute Doll] in front of her!
Ding!
[Sessfully bind the Substitute Doll with the owner. From now on any damage or lethal damage the owner takes would be transferred to Substitute Doll.]
''SUCCESS! Fuuuh¡ I don''t know how this Substitute Doll works but at least it can let me survive from one of this bast*rd attack! Hopefully, it can let him think that I died under his attack and I can have a chance to escape using my [Ethereal Form]ter!''
"But you don''t have to worry¡ I will not kill you! The reason you follow my nephew because you only have him to rely on, right? Because he is the first person you meet and he also the person that brings you here but that''s all! You only met him for more or less a month so you should not have any kind of attachment with him!" Mo Chonglin said with an amicable smile on his face.
''He will not kill me? After everything I have done to him and his people? What is his true scheme right now?''
"JOIN ME! With my authority, I can surely raise you and I will give you any resources you need to make you even stronger! With my strength and your abilities, we can be the strongest pair at Lightwind Continent in a few years!" Finally, Mo Chonglin said his offer after pressuring Tang Li Xue with his words for so long.
''So he wants to recruit me as his people¡ errr¡ as his pet? Well¡ actually, his offer is not bad at all¡ sigh¡ and what he said are mostly right too.''
"You can consider it carefully for a few minutes. But you really don''t need to worry about betraying your conscience or master because, after today, my nephew would no longer able to apany you anymore since I will send him to theherworld soon. So it will be your choice whether you will stay here with me or go to the afterlife to apany my nephew there!" Mo Chonglin said slowly as he took her cup of tea and drank it while he kept looking at Tang Li Xue.
''Dammit! What is this bast*rd do to my concubine?! What should I do now?!''
Chapter 77 - 77: Got Killed!
Chapter 77 - 77: Got Killed!
Tang Li Xue stared at Mo Chonglin full of anger but she still did not have the courage to start the fight against such a strong opponent.
''Sigh¡ there is no benefit for me staying here! It looks like I should really take some desperate measures! [Substitute Doll]¡ I am really counting on you this time! If you fail then I could only curse you in afterlifeter!''
Tang Li Xue roared and the blue phoenix inside her Dantian opened its crimson eyes suddenly as it also let out a majestic cry.
YIIIIIIIIIIIII~~!
BOOOOOM~~!
The deep blue mes poured out from Tang Li Xue''s body cloaking her tiny figure with the extremely high temperature''s me!
Tang Li Xue''s deep blue mes this time was different from when she used it in Herb Garden before.
There were countless crimson specks floating around the deep-blue mes made it looks even more beautiful and far more dangerous than before!
"Sigh¡ what a pity¡" Mo Chonglin could only sigh when he saw Tang Li Xue tried to fight him.
There was no panic and nervousness in Mo Chonglin''s eyes only disappointment.
[me Arrow]! FIRE!
Tang Li Xue shot all of her nine [me Arrow] toward Mo Chonglin at once but she was already casting her [Fire Bomb] before that.
The moment Mo Chonglin waved his palm to neutralize all of her [me Arrow] she threw her [Fire Bomb] toward Mo Chonglin too!
Tang Li Xue did not even wait for her [Fire Bomb] to explode to see the result, she immediately activated her [Ethereal Form] and jumped out from the room through the wall behind her!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM~~!
The terrifying explosion happened the moment Tang Li Xue''s [Fire Bomb] touched the floor in front of Mo Chonglin!
Yes, Tang Li Xue had not aimed her [Fire Bomb] to Mo Chonglin directly but to the floor in front of Mo Chonglin!
Since it was impossible for her current strength to hurt Mo Chonglin, Tang Li Xue''s current objective was to create a chance for her to escape from here!
''I did it! RUUUUUN!''
Tang Li Xue did not turn off her [Ethereal Form], she immediately activated her [Sprint] skill too and ran with all of her might!
She did not even dash toward the entrance gate! She was afraid that Mo Chonglin already set some traps for her there so she decided to run toward the nearest wall to escape from Xiao Hei''s residence as fast as she could!
Bzzzzt¡ Bzzzzt¡ Bzzzzt¡
Tang Li Xue did not realize that above Xiao Hei''s residence, the huge ck cloud full of raging thunder started to swirl.
The deafening thunderous sound followed by the purple lightning descended to the residence''s courtyard where Tang Li Xue still ran with her full speed.
''What the¡''
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM~~!
The raging purple lightning took the form of dragon''s w and struck down the courtyard destroying everything it touches!
Tang Li Xue did not even have any time to scream as her tiny body evaporated into thin air along with the courtyard where she stood!
Mo Chonglin walked out from the rubble casually as he slowly mumbled to himself: "Sigh¡ what a pity! What a waste of talent! Such a best tier pet died just like that¡"
There was not even a scratch at Mo Chonglin''s body, even his clothes still clean and neat since he used his Qi as a barrier to protect himself from all harm.
¡..
Several miles away from Xiao Hei''s residence, near the Asure Demon Sect''s farm¡
A straw doll appeared out of nowhere and it also started to crack in a few seconds.
The straw doll exploded with a tiny bang sound then a tiny figure wasing out from the exploded straw doll!
Surprisingly, that tiny figure was actually Tang Li Xue herself! She actually did not die under Mo Chonglin''s lightning attack thanks to [Substitute Doll] ability!
However, the horrible death experience that Tang Li Xue felt before by no means pleasant. She even puked out a few times the moment she regained her consciousness.
But she only puked out her own gastric juice since she did not eat anything for almost a week now.
''Urgh¡ oeeekhhh¡ that was extremely horrible! I really don''t want to feel that horrible feeling ever again! But the good news is I am still alive! The [Substitute Doll] from the system is really worked wonder!''
Without any hesitation, Tang Li Xue took another [Substitute Doll] out from her system inventory and inserted her fur inside it once again like before.
[Sessfully bind the Substitute Doll with the owner. From now on any damage or lethal damage the owner takes would be transferred to Substitute Doll.]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she epted notification from the system. She was really afraid if there would be some kind of cooldown after she used it before like in the game. Fortunately, she was only overthinking it.
''Let''s escape from this sect now before fatty uncle realizes that I still alive!''
But before Tang Li Xue took any step forward, Xiao Hei''s silly gentle smile shed for a moment in her mind.
''Dammit! Tang Li Xue! That uncle is right! You only meet him for one month! In this cruel world where dog eats dog, human eats human, how can you survive if you trying to help every people you meetter?!''
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in anger and hesitation.
''Idiot, Tang Li Xue! What has he done for you other than give you roasted meat every day?! NOTHING! Do not fool yourself! You trade all of your pills for that mid-tier spirit stone! It is not like he gave it to you for free! Are you so cheap that your pride can be brought with only roasted meat?!''
Her logic wanted her to leave from this sect immediately as soon as she could because if not she would definitely lose this only chance to leave this sect without being realized by Xiao Hei''s uncle!
However, Tang Li Xue''s heart wanted her to save her concubine even with her life as the cost!
''Tang Li Xue! Are you crazy?! He is not the only handsome man in this world! If you can survive now and regain your gorgeous human form, you can get as many handsome concubines as you want! Everything is possible as long as you still alive but it will be over once you are dead!''
Tang Li Xue shook her head and dashed with her full speed toward the sect entrance ignoring everything in her heart¡
But she stopped after only running for a few meters¡
''Uaaarrrrgggghhh¡ I knew it I will really regret itter but I really can''t help it! I already have gone crazy for him! SYSTEM!''
Ding!
[Quest: (Sacrifice) Do whatever it takes to save your male concubine out of the danger!]
[Difficulty: Nightmare]
[Requirement: High Lucky Stat! May God always bless you!]
[Reward: Level +4(+1), Stat Point +120(+30), Skill Point +24(+6), 200(+50) Deity Coins, 1XSilver Lottery Ticket, 3X2 Times EXP Card, 1XPremium Armor Chest]
Tang Li Xuepletely dumbfounded, she rubbed her eyes several times but the quest given by her system did not change at all!
''OH MY GOD..... NIGHTMARE DIFFICULTY QUEST!!!''
Tang Li Xue felt a pang of dizziness attacked her mind so she immediately sucked her breath deeply to calm herself down.
''No matter how I see it, this mission¡ err¡I mean this quest is almost impossible toplete! But do not worry the requirement said ''High Lucky Stats'' and I have one [Greater Lucky Sticker] so everything should¡ might¡ possibly¡ be alright¡ hopefully¡''
Now the most important thing for her to do was to find where Xiao Hei right now!
Chapter 78 - 78: Xiao Hei’s Crisis!
Chapter 78 - 78: Xiao Hei¡¯s Crisis!
''Calm down, Tang Li Xue! Think carefully¡ if I roaming around randomly in this kind of situation, I will only waste my precious time and who knows when I will be able to find Xiao Hei in this vast sect ground.''
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes as her mind started to spin at full speed.
''Wait¡ why no one came to check when the blue phoenix made that bigmotion before? Because the fatty uncle ordered them to ignore it? Maybe it is so¡ but why? Surely because they are too busy with something so they have no time to care about themotion I created! Sigh¡ since it was like that, it means Xiao Hei is still safe for now!''
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief because it would make it more difficult for her to save Xiao Hei if he had already fallen into Mo Chonglin''s hands now.
''Also¡ why is that fatty uncle waiting in Xiao Hei''s room? Is he waiting for me? Impossible, right? How could he know I wille back to Xiao Hei''s room tonight? Because of that blue phoenix? Impossible too, even if he guessed that it is me but there is no guarantee I wille back tonight¡''
Tang Li Xue shuddered as she realized something very important in her mind!
''OH NO! What if that fatty uncle is not waiting for me but waiting for Xiao Hei toe back home! This is bad! I should hurry!''
Tang Li Xue did not want to be seen before she could do anything so she activated her [Ethereal Form] back and her petite figure turned transparent in an instant.
She used her full speed plus [Sprint] skill and dashed back toward Xiao Hei''s residence but of course, she did not n to enter that monster''sir anymore like before.
Since if Tang Li Xue did not guess wrongly, her Xiao Hei should be on his way back from the Sect''s headquarter to his residence!
She must stop Xiao Hei on his way back to his residence as soon as possible so he did not fall into the fatty uncle''s trap!
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue did not know that even without going back to his residence, Xiao Hei was already in dire strait now!
Every sect''s power in this Lightwind Continent heavily was depending on the number of their elders at the Foundation Establishment Stage. Every cultivator under Foundation Establishment Stage was no more than cannon fodder in the war between sects.
There were more than 300 elders at Foundation Establishment Stage in Asura Demon Sect. But do not think that 300 elders already many, on the contrary, Asura Demon Sect were actually on the decline. In its peak, Asura Demon Sect has more than 800 elders at Foundation Establishment Stage.
The current strongest righteous sect, Sword Immortal Sect already had more than 1,000 Foundation Establishment Stage elders and still kept increasing until now making all evil sects like Asura Demon Sect feel great pressure from it and under turmoil now.
In everyone''s knowledge, Xiao Hei should have 20% supports from the total Asura Demon Sect''s elders while Mo Chonglin has 40% and their grandfather, Mo Chanming have the rest 40%.
However, Mo Chonglin was even capable to make several of Xiao Hei''s trusted aides to betray their master. Then what makes everyone think Mo Chonglin did not have the ability to convince the elders from the other side to turn their back and join his side?!
In fact, Mo Chonglin already made this move a long time ago!
While everyone still thinking that the situation in Asura Demon Sect will remain stagnant for a long period of time, Mo Chonglin already managed to get many elders from Xiao Hei and Mo Chanming side.
However, they still kept silent about it under Mo Chonglin ''s order to make all the people in the sect remain clueless.
Until tonight, where Mo Chonglin started to bare his sharp fang to Xiao Hei!
Only tonight everyone knows that Mo Chonglin was actually had more than 70% supports from the total Asura Demon Sect''s elders!
Mo Chanming already long did not participate in any Asura Demon Sect''s matter so the elder supporting him already shrunk to 20%.
While currently Xiao Hei was in reality only had 10% supports from all elders!
Right now, Xiao Hei was still in Asura Demon Sect''s headquarter but the building itself was already surrounded by more than 200 elders from Mo Chonglin''s side!
"Young Patriarch, just give in! If you give up now, at the very least we can spare all the people on your side!" One of the elders that surrounded the headquarter shout.
"Shut up, you traitor! How can you all act so presumptuous to surround the sect headquarter and even trying to arrest your own Patriarch! I bet when the Former Patriarches backter the first things he would do is to skin all of you alive!" The elder from Xiao Hei''s side angrily replied.
"Bwahahahaha¡ Unfortunately, the Former Patriarch already went to Blood Devil Sect to attend his old friend''s birthday, he will note back for a few weeks. By the time hees back, our grand elder would already be a new patriarch! What can the Former Patriarch do by then? Make another child? Or resurrect our pitiful young patriarch? Bwahahaha¡" The other elder from Mo Chonglin''s side mocked.
Mo Chonglin''s n this time was extremely simple but very effective!
He nned to kill Xiao Hei then rece his ce, and be the new patriarch before Mo Chanming coulde back from Blood Devil Sect!
Xiao Hei could only grit his teeth and started to think about how he could survive in this critical situation.
"Young Patriarch, this cannot continue! This headquarter protection array will not be able to hold on any longer! What shall we do now?!" One of the anxious elders forcefully asked Xiao Hei''s decision.
Xiao Hei started to think about his next moves. The only way for him to survive was to escape out from Asura Demon Sect for a few weeks until his grandfathere back from Blood Devil Sect!
After that Xiao Hei was really sure that his grandfather would punish his uncle heavily this time maybe even banish his uncle out from the Asura Demon Sect but of course that only possible if Xiao Hei could survive until then!
If he died before his grandfathere back then his uncle would be the next patriarch of Asura Demon Sect and after that, even his grandfather can no longer punish him anymore.
Why? The reason was really simple!
The patriarch was the highest position in the sect so his grandfather was no longer holds any authority to punish him!
Moreover, if Xiao Hei died then his uncle would be his grandfather only son so no matter how angry his grandfather would be, he could never have the heart to banish, cripple, or kill his uncle!
"Young Patriarch, they even activated the Sect Great Protection Array to trap us inside the sect! We would not be able to fly out from the sect too!" The other elder notified Xiao Hei.
Xiao Hei could only shake his head after hearing this.
The Sect Great Protection Array was a super strong barrier shaped spherical like a ball with Asura Demon Sect at its core. It would protect Asura Demon Sect from every direction even the attack from the skies and underground!
The Sect Great Protection Array should be used to protect the Asura Demon Sect from any external harm but now it was ironically used to trap its own patriarch inside.
To escape out from Asura Demon Sect, Xiao Hei could only run to the Asura Demon''s gate, and forcefully break out from there!
Or Xiao Hei also had the other way to escape from the sect secretly, the way that only Asura Demon Sect''s patriarch knew¡
"Young Patriarch! Headquarter protection array has been broken!"
"let''s go out now and heading to my residence!" Xiao Hei took the lead and charges out from the sect headquarter.
Chapter 79 - 79: Mo Chonglin’s Cruelty!
Chapter 79 - 79: Mo Chonglin¡¯s Cruelty!
Xiao Hei''s residence was actually the Patriarch Residence for many generations of Asura Demon Sect.
No one knew it that there was a secret teleportation array hidden inside the Patriarch Residence!
Only the people who had ever be Patriarch of Asura Demon Sect have the right to know its existence and location like Xiao Hei, his father, and grandfather. Not even his uncle knew about its existence and location of this hidden teleportation array.
The teleportation array key was also only passed down from one Patriarch generation to another and now the key was actually in Xiao Hei''s hand!
Right now Xiao Hei nned to use this teleportation array hidden inside his residence to escape out from Asura Demon Sect temporarily until his grandfatheres back to the sect!
Just when Xiao Hei and all the elders on his side tried to break through from the encirclement outside the sect headquarter something unexpected happened!
YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~~!
The majestic deep-blue phoenix with crimson tails was soaring out to the sky from the ancestral hall''s direction!
"Wha¡ what is that?!" One of the elders from Mo Chonglin side shuddered in fear and horror while pointing his finger toward the deep-blue phoenix that flying on the sky.
"It''s¡ It is a phoenix! A phoenix flew out from our Asura Demon Sect''s ancestral hall! Hahahaha¡ This must be a warning from our sect''s ancestors gave for you all traitors! You all should stop now while you can and start to repent! If not you will make our sect ancestors angry and order that Phoenix burn you all to dust!" The elder from Xiao Hei''s side took this rare chance to throw a threat.
Xiao Hei almost raised his thumb for this quick-witted elder and praised him for his action but the current tense situation made his refrain from doing that!
What happened next was the same as what Xiao Hei predicted, the majority of the elders from his uncle''s side started to hesitate even their strong siege formation got thrown into chaos and panic now.
"Elder Shi¡ is that true? What¡ what if we really angered our ancestors?"
"Should we go and check our ancestral hall now? It is not toote for us to ask for our ancestor forgiveness, aren''t we?"
"I¡ I don''t want to do this anymore! If I knew it will be like this, I would rather choose to keep stay at the neutral side!"
"GO! FOLLOW MY LEAD!" Xiao Hei shouted with firm tone then started to charge toward the hole at their crumbling formation.
Xiao Hei and his group of elders did not meet any resistance or attack as they ran as fast as they can toward Xiao Hei''s residence.
"Elder Luo! Quickly bring¡ all elders that still on our side and slow them down! Remember the Grand Elder''s n! Just do your best to slow them down! Try to deplete their stamina and Qi as much as you can!" Elder Shi told the elder beside him.
"Sigh¡ What about the rest of them, Elder Shi?" Elder Luo grimaced as he asked Elder Shi while pointing toward the crowd of panicked elders with his gaze.
"I will ask Grand Elder with mymunication talisman right now! I will catch up with you allter!" Elder Luo took out hismunication talisman from his spatial ring and began to contact Mo Chonglin''smunication talisman.
Elder Luo nodded then brought tens of elders with him to chase after Xiao Hei and his group!
When Mo Chonglin picked up Elder Shi''s call, Elder Shi immediately told Mo Chonglin what happened without any dy!
Elder Shi felt that with Mo Chonglin''s cruel temperament, it was not impossible for Mo Chonglin to kill him if he messed the n!
"There is no need for you to panic. Just ignore that whatever phoenix for now and focus on the task I gave to you before. Point yourmunication talisman to the crowd." Mo Chonglin''s sound was so calm and collected without any ripple.
Even Elder Shi cannot help but admire Mo Chonglin''s calmness even under this kind of unexpected situation.
Elder Shi pointed hismunication talisman toward the panicked crowd of elders, he knew that Mo Chonglin has something to say to them.
"SHUT UP, YOU USELESS PIECES OF GARBAGE!" Mo Chonglin yelled through Elder Shimunication talisman.
The panicked crowd of elders that was shouting wants to give up or repent to ancestor instantly silenced by Mo Chonglin shout.
"I know what you all thinking. You are all in panic and insecure now because of a mere baseless phenomenon. Because you all think even if my n to be the patriarch fails so what, you all would still stay as Asura Demon Sect''s elder. At most my father would only lightly punish you all." Mo Chonglin''s word was loud and clear but all the elders that heard it started to have a bad premonition.
"While I¡ I would probably be crippled or exiled from Asura Demon Sect by my father! You all are still thinking your choice would not have any impact on your future! Whether me or my nephew that bes patriarch, it would not affect your position as Asura Demon Sect''s elder. You all took my side because I offer you all more benefit than my nephew, that''s all. BUT YOU ARE DEADLY WRONG!" Mo Chonglin''s tone turned cold in an instant made all of the elders heard him began to sweating.
"Listen up you bunch of sc.u.m! I, Mo Chonglin would rather die than be crippled or exiled! But even if I fail to kill my nephew today, it would take a week for my father toe back into the sect! ONE WEEK! Think about it¡ Do you all think it would enough for me if I use that one week to massacre you all before I kill myself?" Mo Chonglin did not say any other words after that and disconnected his connection.
All the elders that heard Mo Chonglin''s speech stunned silly by hisst sentence. They all started to think if Mo Chonglin only trying to intimidate them to follow hismand? Of course not!
Mo Chonglin''s cruelty was already acknowledged by all the people in Asura Demon Sect. In fact, he was even called the Laughing Demon by the people from the other sect due to his cruelness. It was said that he could even stillughing while massacring or torturing many people!
Mo Chonglin said he would rather die than be crippled or exiled from the sect! All the elders surely believe that who can bear to be crippled or exiled by his own father.
Mo Chonglin also said he would kill all of them beforemit suicide! If Mo Chonglin really lost everything he would surely going insane. All the elders really believe the first person Mo Chonglin would kill was all of them!
"Ha¡ ahahaha¡ How stupid of me¡ There is no phoenix in the Immortal World¡ so that phenomenon should be man-made by the Young Patriarch side to confuse us¡" One of the panicked elders before started to calm down and said.
"Ahhh¡ I think so too!"
"Agree!"
"That''s true¡ Well said!"
Actually, if they were forced to chose, they would definitely choose to follow Mo Chonglin''s order now rather than the dead ancestor''s words!
Because if they defied the dead ancestor''s words, they might possibly be cursed and die because of it but if they did not follow Mo Chonglin''s order now, they would certainly die very soon!
After they all reached a consensus, they started to follow Elder Shi''s arrangement and began to chase Xiao Hei and his group in a hurry!
Mo Chonglin''s order right now was not to kill Xiao Hei or any of his group, they could only try to exhaust Xiao Hei and his group down as much as possible for now!
All the elders including Elder Shi or Elder Luo really did not understand why Grand Elder ordered them to do so.
They must kill Xiao Hei at all cost but why Grand Elder ordered only to exhaust him and his group for now?!
However, they really did not dare to question any of Grand Eldermands so they could only do their best to carry them out.
.....
Xiao Hei and all the elders on his side were rushing back toward Xiao Hei residence as fast as they could now.
Unfortunately, Elder Luo''s countless poisonous insects kept harassing them on the way so they can only proceed carefully while ward off the countless poisonous insects away with their Qi or martial art techniques!
Moreover, several other elders attacked Xiao Hei and his group from distance and forced them to defend against all of those attacks!
With Xiao Hei''s intelligence, he noticed it in an instant that Mo Chonglin''s people actually did not n to kill them for now but only n to wear them out, but why?
Chapter 80 - 80: Tang Li Xue’s Warning!
Chapter 80 - 80: Tang Li Xue¡¯s Warning!
Xiao Hei and his group busied themselves repelling Elder Luo''s countless poisonous insects and several elders ranged attacks while proceeding at the snail pace toward Xiao Hei''s residence.
BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG!!!
Xiao Hei unleashed his 4thyer of [Heaven Splitting Wave] and managed to clear arge number of poisonous flying insects in front of him.
Xiao Hei activated his Light Body Technique and his figure vanished in an instant.
While several elders from Mo Chonglin''s side still confused because of it, Elder Luo was so shocked when the disappeared Xiao Hei appeared so close to him right now.
[Asura King Fist]!
BANG!
Xiao Hei''s used his martial art technique and his fist packed full ofpressed Qi smashed onto Elder Luo''s face.
Elder Luo''s body flung far away backward, even after his body hit the ground, it still left a deep long trail on the floor.
Xiao Hei still held some of his strength back since he did not n to kill the elder from his own sect but even so his fist should be enough to make Elder Luo bedridden for a few months.
Elder Luo was not a fighter-type cultivator. He was more like a demonic insect breeder so hisbat skill was very weak and that was why Xiao Hei can knock him out with one hit so easily.
After Elder Luo went unconscious, there was no one can control all the poisonous insects and it quickly scattered away in all directions.
"LET''S GO!" Xiao Hei dashed back toward his group and they continue their way to Patriarch Residence while several elders from Mo Chonglin''s side still helped Elder Luo.
Xiao Hei and his group were really dejected since they cannot use their flying sword to fly directly to Patriarch Residence because the Great Protection Array prohibits any creature flying inside it.
Of course, Great Protection Array can only prohibit any creature flying using their cultivation and not with their wings like the blue phoenix, or Elder Luo''s poisonous insects.
It did not take long before more than a hundred other elders from Mo Chonglin''s side to catch up with Elder Luo''s group.
"What happened? Where is the Young Patriarch go?" Elder Shi asked one of the elders in Elder Luo''s group.
"Young Patriarch went that way after he knocked out Elder Luo!" The elder pointed his finger to the Patriarch residence''s direction.
"You can bring Elder Luo back to his ce and call the physician to check his condition! The other elders please follow me!" Elder Shi said in a hurry and quickly continue his way to chase Xiao Hei''s group.
¡..
When Xiao Hei and his group were still traveling as fast as possible toward Xiao Hei Residence, Tang Li Xue managed to see them in the dark night using her [Night Vision] skill!
''XIAO HEI! Sigh¡ it looks like my guess is right! Fortunately, he has not arrived yet at the residence!''
Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form] so Xiao Hei could see herter and she quickly ran toward Xiao Hei and his group.
"XIAO BAI!" Xiao Hei shouted in surprise when he saw Tang Li Xue ran toward him.
Actually, Xiao Hei was already drowned in worry because Tang Li Xue went missing for almost a week now.
He even ordered his own personal guards like Feng San and several others to search Tang Li Xue in every nook and cranny but they still did not found any clue about Tang Li Xue''s whereabouts.
Xiao Hei almost decided to ask his own uncle about Tang Li Xue whereabouts if he still cannot find her until tomorrow but his uncle did not give him a chance to do so since he already decided to eliminate Xiao Hei tonight.
Tang Li Xue jumped toward Xiao Hei and Xiao Hei also caught her tiny body with both of his hands then embraced her with a gentle smile on his face.
All the elders on Xiao Hei''s side were dumbfounded when they saw their cold and rigid young patriarch could actually show this kind of gentle expression.
Xiao Hei coughed a bit to cover his embarrassment in front of his own subordinates and started to put his cold angry expression to scold Tang Li Xue.
"Where have you been?! You have been missing for almost an entire week! Do you know how worried I was?!" Xiao Hei raised Tang Li Xue''s tiny body from his chest and started to scold her a bit.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eye while thinking: ''Xiao Hei, is it really the right time to rebuke me? HELLO! Please remember! We are in a very dangerous situation right now!''
Surely even one of the elders in Xiao Hei''s side had the same opinion as Tang Li Xue and quickly reminded Xiao Hei politely: "Uhhh¡ Young Patriarch, this subordinate thinks it''s better if we continue our way quickly before all of our pursuers catch up to us."
Xiao Hei nodded toward the elder that had given him the suggestion and stuffed Tang Li Xue into his clothes then continue their way back to Xiao Hei''s residence.
Tang Li Xue peeked her head out from inside Xiao Hei''s clothes and she still heard Xiao Hei mumbled to her: "Look how I will fix you after all of this over! I will¡ I will not cook any of your favorite roasted meat for one week as your punishment!"
Tang Li Xue facepalmed, she even almost fell out from Xiao Hei''s clothes when she heard Xiao Hei''s threat.
However, Tang Li Xue quickly regained her serious demeanor when she realized where Xiao Hei and his group heading.
Tang Li Xue swiftly jumped out from Xiao Hei''s clothes to his right shoulder and pulled Xiao Hei''s cor to gain his attention.
"Xiao Bai! Do not be naughty! We are in a hurry here! There is a very scary group of people chasing behind us so be good for now! Alright¡ Alright¡ You win¡ I will cook your favorite roasted meat for youter!" Xiao Hei whispered to Tang Li Xue while patting her head with his big warm palm.
Tang Li Xue: ''...¡..''
''Who the hell wants your roasted meat?! Ummm¡ bute to think of it, I still have not eaten anything for almost a week! How good it will be if I can eat a te full of roasted meat¡ No, no, no! Tang Li Xue! Remember your first objective and quest first!''
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have any time to bring some books with her before so she could only use her crude gesture to try to warn Xiao Hei now.
Tang Li Xue pointed one of her paws toward Xiao Hei''s residence then she made a cross sign with both of her paws.
Xiao Hei frowned a bit when he saw Tang Li Xue was trying to tell him something using her paw gesture and then he slowly say: "What?! You don''t want to eat the roasted meat I make any more! Xiao Bai¡ I only warned you a bit before, it''s not like I will really not cook it for you as your punishment! Is there any need for you to feel that angry with me?"
Tang Li Xue almost coughed out several mouthfuls of blood this time when she heard Xiao Hei''s annoying words.
''Is there a simple way to make this dumbass to understand my words now? Sigh¡ if only I have some books with me now¡''
Chapter 81 - 81: Pursuit!
Chapter 81 - 81: Pursuit!
Tang Li Xue jumped down from Xiao Hei''s shoulder andnded on the ground.
"XIAO BAI!" Xiao Hei reached his right hand trying to catch Tang Li Xue but she quickly jumped back to dodge it.
''Good¡ at least he stopped heading to his uncle''s direction for now! I have to think something quick before uncle''s peoplee here!''
This time Tang Li Xue pointed her paw to Xiao Hei''s residence direction then made a bulging stomach gesture with both of her paws. She pointed back her paw to Xiao Hei then to Xiao Hei''s residence direction first before making cutting throat gesture in the end.
''In that direction¡ there is your fatty uncle¡ if you kept heading there¡ you will DIE!''
"You want me to go back to residence now and feed you roasted meat until you full if not you will kill me as soon as we arrive back at my residence? Xiao Bai! This is not the right time to argue about this! Both of us will die if we keep staying here like this!" Xiao Hei''s face turned darker and he even gritted his teeth in anger this time.
Tang Li Xue knocked both of her paws to the ground out of frustration and dejection.
''Dammit! Dammit! Xiao Hei! Why¡why are you so stupid like your aide this time?! Sigh¡ bute to think about it my interaction with Xiao Hei before was always about roasted meat¡ so it is not that weird if he thinks I ask about it too this time?''
''No, no, no, no¡ I traded all of my pills with him before this too! So it is clearly not my fault! It is his fault!''
However, even though she managed to tell Xiao Hei about it so what? Where can they go now to escape from fatty uncle''s pursuit?
Headache¡ Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead with his paw while she kept thinking of any solution.
Today was probably the day where Tang Li Xue was using her brain the most, she even felt that her brain almost short-circuited because of it!
"Young Patriarch! Please be hurry! We don''t have any more time!" All of the elders on Xiao Hei''s side started to get impatient and anxious. They really cannot understand why their cold young patriarch put so much care for this stupid spoiled fox even in this dire situation where their lives still barely hanging on the thin thread.
But when all hope seems dim, something important shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
Tang Li Xue pped her forehead with her paw while thinking: ''Ah¡ How can I forget about that?! Don''t I also have someone who can match that fatty uncle''s strength on my side?! The fake dragon!''
Tang Li Xue did not waste any more time and swiftly dashed toward the farm direction. She stopped after running more than ten meters then waved her paw to Xiao Hei, signaled him to quickly follow her now.
Xiao Hei frowned deeper when he saw how stubborn Tang Li Xue''s act now. Only he knew that Tang Li Xue was actually a savage beast with the brain as smart as a normal human since she did not want to go back to his residence then that means there were probably some dangerous traps ced there.
But no matter how dangerous the traps were, Xiao Hei still thought his only chance to escape from this sect was only the teleportation array hidden inside his residence and he was willing to gamble for it.
Xiao Hei hesitated for a while, in the end, he gritted his teeth and turned around facing all of his loyal subordinates that support him through all trial and tribtion until now.
"All of my brothers and sisters! I have already decided not to head back to Patriarch Residence. I believe with my uncle''s intelligence, he would certainly ce some dangerous traps, and waiting for us to jump in!" Xiao Hei cupped his hands toward the crowd and exined politely.
"Young Patriarch, where are we going now? It will also very dangerous for us if we kept staying inside the sect!" One of the elders asked.
"I have decided to follow my fox''s lead. I know some of you will doubt my choice so I would like to thank you for all of your trust and effort to support me until now. I believe it is not toote for you if you want to join my uncle''s side now. He will surely wee you with open arms." Xiao Hei sincerely thanked them all and even suggested them to change side if they wanted to since he could see many doubts shed deep in the eyes of some of them.
To be exact, all of these elders on his side was still here supporting him, not because they really wanted to work, trust, or loyal to Xiao Hei but because they owe their lives to histe father before.
Even though Xiao Hei was a genius but he was too young after all and his time in the Asura Demon Sect was still too short to build solid foundation and rtion with any elders in the sect like his uncle or his father.
In the end, among more than forty elders, only five elders remained.
Xiao Hei did not mind it and thanked them all once again then he turned around to leave with the five remaining elders but before that¡
[Scorching me Saber]!
[Freezing Bolt]!
[Sharp Wind de]!
"Xiao Bai, Watch out!" Xiao Hei used his Light Body Technique and appeared in front of Tang Li Xue in an instant then waved his right hand to repel all attacks.
Actually, all of these attacks did not specifically target Tang Li Xue but they only nned to rain their martial art techniques down to slow down Xiao Hei and his group like before.
However, all the people here have already reached Foundation Establishment Stage, only Tang Li Xue have not so if the shockwaves from it identally hit her, she would surely be meat patty under that strong force.
Bang¡ Bang¡ Bang¡
Although these attacks caught Xiao Hei off guard but he still could easily neutralize two of those attacks while one of them hit his left shoulder.
Tang Li Xue panicked a bit when she saw one of that strong attacks hit Xiao Hei but she calmed down when she saw Xiao Hei''s expression did not change.
"GO!" Xiao Hei picked Tang Li Xue''s tiny body with his right hand and quickly went to the direction where Tang Li Xue pointed before.
Tang Li Xue''s heart was really touched when Xiao Hei decided to fully believe in her once again and he even used his own body to protect her.
Tang Li Xue stealthy took one strand of Xiao Hei''s long silky ck hair.
Xiao Hei also realized it but he did not have any time to care about it for now since his pursuer already so close with him right now.
Tang Li Xue silently took out thest one unused [Substitute Doll] and stuffed Xiao Hei''s strand of hair inside it.
[Sessfully bind the Substitute Doll with the owner''s subordinate. From now on any damage or lethal damage the owner takes would be transferred to Substitute Doll.]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she epted notification from the system.
''So I could really use this [Substitute Doll] for someone else other than myself! Sigh¡ Here it goes myst [Substitute Doll]¡ Hopefully, this would be enough to protect me and Xiao Hei out of this danger.''
Chapter 82 - 82: Arrived at the Fortress!
Chapter 82 - 82: Arrived at the Fortress!
Elder Shi and his group followed so tightly behind Xiao Hei''s group while Xiao Hei''s group was also throwing some attacks from time to time to slow their pursuer down.
Unfortunately, Mo Chonglin''s people that chase after Xiao Hei were simply too many and they gradually surrounded Xiao Hei''s group with fan-shaped formation from behind.
Xiao Hei and his group were already having a very hard time defending themselves from the flood of attacks by more than one hundred and fifty of Mo Chonglin''s people even when Xiao Hei''s group almost reached fifty people before, let alone now that Xiao Hei''s group only left with only five people.
Most of their pursuers'' attacks were actually neutralized by Xiao Hei now.
Did not know why but it looks like Xiao Hei was getting bolder and bolder when defending against any attacks thrown by all pursuers now ever since Tang Li Xue sessfully binding Xiao Hei with herst [Substitute Doll].
Tang Li Xue peeked out her tiny furry head from Xiao Hei''s clothes and her expression turned dark in an instant.
''I am pretty sure this sc.u.mmy Xiao Hei already noticed that he has not received any damage even after being struck by so many attacks, that''s why he is getting more and more reckless now!''
'' Xiao Hei, Hei, Xiao Hei¡ please! Really¡ really¡ please! Don''t test your limit like this¡ errr¡ No, it should be... please, don''t test my [Substitute Doll] limit like this! It''s myst one! If you break it then you will not have any more extra life to save yourself at the critical momentter!''
Tang Li Xue took out Xiao Hei''s [Substitute Doll] from her system inventory to check it.
She sighed in relief when she saw that Xiao Hei''s [Substitute Doll] only cracked a bit, about only one or two millimeters but the crack kept increasing bit by bit.
But at the very least, Xiao Hei''s [Substitute Doll] should hold out long enough until Tang Li Xue, Xiao Hei, and his group arrived at Fake Dragon''s Fortress without breaking.
[Asura Flying Nail]!
[Earth Jaw]!
[Sharp Blood Bullet]!
Torrent of fierce attacks kept raining down on Xiao Hei and his group!
If not for Xiao Hei''s protection, Tang Li Xue''s tiny body would already turn into blood mist if she got hit by the shockwave from any of these fierce attacks!
The battle between Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators was not something where Tang Li Xue could meddle.
Tang Li Xue''s total current strength was only somewhere around mid-rank Qi Condensation Stage right now.
Even though she had some powerful divine abilities but all Qi Condensation Stage cultivators could already start to learn some powerful martial arts or spells too.
Moreover, Tang Li Xuepletelycked in fighting experience since she basically only reincarnated into this Immortal World for no more than two months!
While Xiao Hei''s group and Mo Chonglin''s group were busy fighting with each other, Elder Shi frowned as he realized the direction they were heading was not Patriarch''s Residence as before.
Elder Shi quickly took hismunication talisman and told Mo Chonglin what happened right away including most of Xiao Hei''s people changed side and only leaving five elders on Xiao Hei''s side right now.
Unfortunately, Elder Shi did not inform Mo Chonglin about the silver-white fox that clinging on Xiao Hei right now since Mo Chonglin did not tell anyone about Tang Li Xue even after he used his Soul Scoured Technique to Elder Lin so the current Mo Chonglin still thinking Tang Li Xue died in his hands before.
"They are not heading here anymore?" Mo Chonglin also frowned when he heard what Elder Shi told him throughmunication talisman.
Mo Chonglin was not surprised that the majority of Xiao Hei''s group changed to his side since it was already in his prediction since the very start.
Who wants to follow a failed leader until his death bed? That was why Mo Chonglin only ordered all his people to harass them, drained their stamina, and not to kill anybody.
But Xiao Hei headed toward Patriarch Residence and using Secret Teleportation Array was also in Mo Chonglin''s n!
Mo Chonglin already nned from the start to push Xiao Hei to use the Secret Teleportation Array so he could know the hidden location of that Secret Teleportation Array and forcefully took its key from Xiao Hei before killing him.
As for the possibility for Xiao Hei escaped using Secret Teleportation Array?
Mo Chonglin could only sneer at it.
Any Teleportation Array needs a quite long time to prepare before activating it. Even the fastest one would need at least five to ten minutes if Mo Chonglin cannot cripple or kill Xiao Hei in that time then he would rathermit suicide with a block of tofu.
Then how could Mo Chonglin know about the Secret Teleportation Array that only the patriarch knew?
This was actually a really foolish question to ask!
Which big sect did not have any back door for their leader or patriarch to escape in the dire moment?
Should they die with their sects if some powerful foese to their front door? Then how about their sect legacy? Throwing their lives until thest drop of blood and everything would be buried along with their sects?
Of course not! Every sect whether big or small has its own back door to escape at the critical moment!
Even if their leader or patriarch must fight to their death, at least they could send their family along with their n or sect important legacies away to a safe ce before the deadly fight broke out.
Mo Chonglin closed his eyes and tapping his finger on the tea table to think.
''Why is my nephew not run back to this residence? Is it possible for that Secret Teleportation Array to not located in this residence but at another ce? Impossible!''
Mo Chonglin was 100% sure that the Secret Teleportation Array located in this Patriarch Residence!
"Do it like what we nned before! Don''t use any lethal attacks yet. Just use any attacks to slow them down and drain their stamina, I want them all alive! Keep monitoring their movement and report back to me once they arrived at their destination!" Mo Chonglin ordered Elder Shi with a stern tone and disconnected theirmunication talisman after that.
Secret Teleportation Array cannot be ced at any random ce or it could be used by the spies from another sect to sneak in and out.
ording to Mo Chonglin''s analysis, there were two ces where Secret Teleportation Array could be ced safely.
The first ce was the Sect Headquarter where many elderse and go every day. Any intruders that tried to sneak in would definitely have a death wish if they dare to try it.
But do not forget that most of the elders in Asura Demon Sect were actually at Mo Chonglin''s side currently! They already had searched at every nook and cranny of the Sect Headquarter and did not find any single clue about it.
Moreover, there were too many eyes watching at Sect Headquarter and if the patriarch was using the Secret Teleportation Array and suddenly missing from the Sect Headquarter, it would certainly cause some suspicion since a long time ago.
Then only the second ce left... this Patriarch Residence!
In this Patriarch Residence, the patriarch could use closed-door cultivation as their excuse, and even if they were using Secret Teleportation Array and went missing for a few months, no one would feel anything strange at all.
Mo Chonglin sneered coldly after he ascertained his analysis once again.
''It would be really boring if everything goes as I nned. I really am looking forward to what kind of surprise you will bring me this time, my dear nephew!''
.....
...
.
After fifteen or twenty minutes of fierce struggle, Xiao Hei and his group finally managed to reach a strange fortress inside the farm''s deste area albeit barely since they were extremely exhausted now and their bodies also inflicted with many different kinds of injuries.
But when Xiao Hei''s group and Mo Chonglin''s group started to approach the strange fortress while fighting fiercely against each other...
BOOOOOM~~!
Powerful pressure came out from the strange fortress pushed all of them away. It even made more than half of the current two hundred elders flew backward several meters and coughed out several mouthfuls of blood.
"ALL HUMANS, BEGONE! THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR YOUR FILTHY LOWLY SELVES CAN ENTER! GET LOST NOW OR DIE!"
Chapter 83 - 83: Tang Li Xues Headache!
Chapter 83 - 83: Tang Li Xue''s Headache!
Powerful violent pressure made all one hundred and fifty elders there suffocated and hard to breathe.
All the people there did not even dare to move as the pressure kept suppressed them. They could only stare in shock at the strange fortress, their eyes were full of horror and fear.
While all the elders there were too stunned with what happened, Xiao Hei looked at his surrounding with the gaze full of doubt because right now¡ he did not even feel anything! He did not even felt a tiny bit of pressure!
If not for some elders from his side also fell down to the ground and coughed out a mouthful of blood, Xiao Hei would probably think that his enemies put an act to trick him right now!
Of course, the reason for Xiao Hei did not receive any pressure was actually because he has a certain white-silver fox hid in his clothes right now.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes when she saw Xiao Hei''s current bewildered and dumbfounded expression. She jumped out from Xiao Hei''s chest and ran toward the fortress gate then pushed it open with both of her paws.
The fortress gate only opened a bit. Tang Li Xue waved her paw to Xiao Hei signaled him to follow her and then she leisurely entered the strange fortress.
Xiao Hei was too stunned with what happened, he did not even realize it when Tang Li Xue jumped out from his clothes and pushed open the fortress gate.
The moment Xiao Hei regained his wits, he saw Tang Li Xue waved her paw to him in front of the fortress gate.
"XIAO BAI! STOP!"
Xiao Hei''s heart almost jumped out from his chest, he wanted to prevent Tang Li Xue from recklessly entering the fortress but he was one stepte since Tang Li Xue already leisurely entered the fortress before his very eyes.
Xiao Hei was very afraid that something bad will happen to her so he swiftly followed Tang Li Xue and entered the strange fortress too.
The other five elders from Xiao Hei''s side was hesitating for a few moments before gritted their teeth and resolved to follow their Young Patriarch step to enter the fortress.
Xiao Hei and his group dropped their jaws in astonishment when they saw the mighty gigantic wyrm chained inside the strange fortress.
But theical scene in front of their eyes didpletely not match with the grandeur of such a terrifying creature¡
A majestic wyrm was currently rebuking a tiny little fox like a mother scolding her naughty child¡
"Littless, you¡ you¡ look at what you have done this time?! You knew that I cannot stand any humans, right? You knew that I really hate humans, right? Why?! Why?! Why did you still bring so many of them here?!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard gritted its teeth in frustration.
"Ai¡ ai¡ ai¡ stop... stop¡ stop¡ STHAAAP! Look¡ look at what you did now?! You¡ Littless, why did you bring such filthy little things inside here?! I¡ I will be really angry to death because of you today!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard stared at Xiao Hei and his group full of disgust as if they were some filthy rats from the sewer.
"Littless, how many times I already said it to you before?! Do not y with any humans anymore! They are very wicked, full of trickery and deception, filthy, smelly, treacherous, bloodthirsty, unreasonable, sinister, malicious, evil, liar, l.u.s.tful, vicious¡" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard habit to badmouthing humans started to show once again.
Tang Li Xue facepalmed as she saw the fake dragon had already started its non-stop bbering¡
''Oh,e on, mom! We really do not have the time for this right now!''
Tang Li Xue put one of her paws on her snout then pointed her other paw to the fortress gate.
''Can you shut up for now?! We have many pursuers outside! They can barge in at any moment!''
Just like what Tang Li Xue has said, all Mo Chonglin''s people that waited outside started to feel restless in a few minutes after Xiao Hei and his group entered the fake dragon''s fortress.
Under Elder Shi''smand, ten elders with the strongest cultivation stood in front of the fortress gate. They wanted to try to barge in and check what was going on inside the strange fortress. Also to make sure if Xiao Hei and the five elders by his side were still alive or not before Elder Shi can inform everything back to Mo Chonglin.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s mood already turned sour when Tang Li Xue ''invited'' her six filthy human friends into its home and now another ten of uninvited filthy humans wanted to enter its home too?!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was very angry right now.
''All of these impudent humans! Do they really think my home is their own ce where they can y hide and seek? UNFORGIVABLE!''
When the ten elders under Elder Shi''smand opened the fortress gate, they were weed by the fierce destructive golden mes spilling out from inside the strange fortress.
The ten elders did not even have any time to dodge or scream before the majestic golden mes turned them all to dust!
Unfortunately, that was still not the end of it!
The mighty destructive golden mes kept shooting out from the strange fortress''s gate, its speed was unimaginably fast, and it fried another twenty or more elders to ashes on its path!
Elder Shi fell down on the ground out of shock and fear, he almost pissed on his own pants when he saw how easy his colleagues died because of that golden mes.
He quickly took out hismunication talisman with his trembling hands and tried to contact Mo Chonglin.
When Mo Chonglin picked up his call, Elder Shi informed what happened from the start until now right away.
"Wait for me there and do not make any rash move." Mo Chonglin''s stern voice resounded from Elder Shi''smunication talisman before he cut their connection.
Elder Shi sighed in relief the moment he heard Mo Chonglin''s order. Elder Shi would probably feel a great headache right now if Mo Chonglin still ordered him to check what happened inside the strange fortress no matter what it took.
Of course, Mo Chonglin would never do that since anyone who held the elder position was the true core of the sect, the total number of elders the sect possessed was the symbol of the sect''s strength. He would not let any elder from his sect waste their life meaninglessly.
¡..
¡
.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard snorted coldly after it sprayed out some of its terrifying golden mes onto the fortress gate.
Xiao Hei''s expression turned solemn and the five elders'' faces behind him already pale out of fright.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief since now she has some time to melt Fake Dragon''s chain. She wanted to try using her evolved me of Pride to do it but right now, she was not sure anymore since Fake Dragon''s own golden me already so much more powerful and more terrifying than her me of Pride.
Tang Li Xue waved her paw to Fake Dragon and pointed toward Xiao Hei. She also waved her paw to Xiao Hei and pointed toward Fake Dragon.
''Fake Dragon, I don''t have time to exin it to you and it''s not like I can exin it with my gesture alone so just let Xiao Hei would exin all of it to you! Xiao Hei, can you help me and tell everything to Fake Dragon?''
Xiao Hei nodded to Tang Li Xue. There was no need for Xiao Hei to guess what Tang Li Xue''s gesture means since in this kind of situation, someone really should exin the reason why they were here and Xiao Hei also wanted to ask for the fake dragon''s help.
In Xiao Hei''s mind, he only nned to ask for the fake dragon so it would let him stay here for a few weeks until his grandfather went back to the sect.
Xiao Hei cupped his hands respectfully and says: "Greeting to Exalted Master¡"
"SHUT UP!" The fake dragon roared loudly full of anger. Its murderous stare made Xiao Hei''s face turned paler.
Tang Li Xue facepalmed again in frustration.
''Sigh¡ It looks like this will not be easy¡''
Chapter 84 - 84: Harsh Truth!
Chapter 84 - 84: Harsh Truth!
In the end, Tang Li Xue was forced to waste her precious few minutes to pacify the fake dragon''s bad mood while Xiao Hei exined everything to the fake dragon in detail.
After Xiao Hei finished telling everything, the fake dragon did not have any reaction and only yawned in boredom.
Xiao Hei''s lips twitched a bit in anger when the fake dragonpletely ignored him like an empty air but there was nothing he could do under this situation. At least, the fake dragon did not drive them out in anger for now so they should be allowed to stay here.
Actually, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard wanted to drive all humans away as soon as possible but there was nothing it can do since they were brought here by the littless so it can only swallow its anger for now even if it was extremely disgusted by these humans.
Xiao Hei only asked for the fake dragon''s permission to let him and his people stay here for a few weeks until his grandfather came back to the sect while Tang Li Xue had her own different n.
Xiao Hei''s n was not bad but Tang Li Xue had a nagging feeling that everything would not go so smoothly.
First, fatty uncle''s target was only Xiao Hei and fake dragon''s hatred for humans was very clear. Tang Li Xue was sure fake dragon would fight with fatty uncle If that fatty uncle forcefully barge in but she really doubted that fake dragon would go so far to protect her Xiao Hei in that intense fight.
Second, Tang Li Xue was not sure if the fake dragon really could win if it fought with the fatty uncle while still being chained like this.
Tang Li Xue dashed toward the nearby ck thick chain and she opened her mouth.
[Fire Breath]!
Deep-blue mes adorned with crimson light specks were spraying out from Tang Li Xue''s mouth and sted the ck thick chain.
Forget about shattering or melting it, Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue mes did not even manage to scratch the ck thick chain at all.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in frustration and this time she decided topress all of her deep-blue mes on one spot.
The giant three meters tall deep-blue mespressed into a tiny ball under Tang Li Xue''s control but that tiny ball of deep-blue mes kept getting bigger and bigger but she keptpressed it again and again.
The fake dragon wanted to stop Tang Li Xue''s futile action but its eyes widened in surprise when it saw Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue mes.
The fake dragon''s talkative nature almost kicked in and it opened its mouth but it immediately closed its mouth back when it realized there were humans here.
The fake dragon really wanted to exin what the deep-blue mes truly were and how valuable it was to Tang Li Xue but it also knew that human greed knew no bounds.
It would be a disaster if these ugly filthy evil humans realized the me''s true value and decided to ambush her outside then forcefully extract the mes out of her body in the end!
So the fake dragon decided to swallow all of its words back to its throat.
While the fake dragon was still in its deep thought, Tang Li Xue already finishedpressing her me of Pride to her maximum capability and she threw it toward the thick ck chain while hastily retreated back.
[Fire Bomb]!
BOOOOOM~~!
The fake dragon waved its giant w to protect Tang Li Xue from the explosion shockwave.
After a few moments, Tang Li Xue checked the thick ck chain but she found out that it still did not even have any scratch on it. Tang Li Xue''s expression turned sour, she was really disappointed and frustrated.
"Littless, there is no need to feel so down. These mysterious ck chains are made from a special material that can seal and absorb any kind of energy. It has already absorbed my vitality energy for who knows how long, so it is least afraid of the fire element. So it makes sense if your me cannot melt or shatter it yet for now." The fake dragon tried to console Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was still drowned in her own disappointment so she did not hear the fake dragon''s words clearly.
The fake dragon even spilled some clue and said ''your me cannot melt or shatter it YET FOR NOW'' so the fake dragon was very sure her me could definitely do it in the future since the fake dragon also realized that Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue me was still in its embryonic form.
''It looks like there is no other choice other than asking for the fake dragon''s protection and waiting here until Xiao Hei''s grandfatheres back... Sigh... and here I thought I can use this chance to release the fake dragon out... but a few weeks! I really doubt it if that cunning uncle will wait for us outside like a good boy in these few weeks.'' Tang Li Xue''s thought while shook her furry head in bitterness.
The fake dragon stared at Tang Li Xue full of fondness.
The more it saw this littless, the more it fancied her.
The fake dragon really liked how intelligent Tang Li Xue was, even though she was only at savage beast level for now. It was hard to imagine how smart she would be if she evolved into the same level as it in the future.
Moreover, she had that mysterious unique deep-blue me with her now!
The fake dragon was very sure that Tang Li Xue would have a really bright future in front of her!
Unfortunately, she also has her own fatal w...
She was too close to humans and too trusting!
For the fake dragon, this was the most fatal w in Tang Li Xue, the w that couldpletely ruin her whole future.
The fake dragon was thinking deeply for a few moments and when its eyes nced at Xiao Hei that stood at the corner of the room, it decided to use his family''s problem to warn its littless.
"Cough... you all can stay here as long as you want but do not think that you can evade your dead with this. Do you really think only that fatty Mo wants you dead?" The fake dragon stared at Xiao Hei and said in an unfriendly manner.
Xiao Hei frowned and ask: "What do you mean by that? Someone else other than my uncle also wants me dead?"
"Sigh... what a naive little guy... Do you really think that your grandfather''s departure from your sect this time is a coincidence? Hahaha... NAIVE!" The fake dragonughed mockingly at Xiao Hei.
"My grandfather? Exalted Beast Lord, you can eat anything you want but you cannot say any lies however you want or it will ruin your prestige as a high-level beast with high intelligence." Xiao Hei''s face turned dark and he answered the fake dragon with a hint of anger in his voice.
The five other elders also a bit angry but they did not dare to say anything right now.
Tang Li Xue who was lyingzily near the fake dragon while thinking another way to bring the fake dragon out from here started to stretch her ears in curiosity.
The fake dragon''s mouth curved upward when its n worked well.
"There is no need to deny my words so quickly. I will tell you everything from the very beginning. Your grandfather''s age is almost a thousand years old. You never think that he only has your uncle and your father as his child, don''t you? Do you know how many sons and daughters your grandfather has before other than your uncle and your father?" The fake dragonzily asked.
Xiao Hei frowned deeply and he started to stare at the five elders by his side but the five elders did not dare to meet his eyes.
"There is no need to ask them. They are already bounded by the contract''s power since they entered your sect as elders. They will not be able to speak out anything about the Mo family even if you torture them to death. I will answer it for you... your grandfather had four sons and two daughters other than your uncle and your father." The fake dragon exined with azy tone but its words greatly shocked Xiao Hei and Tang Li Xue.
''Damn! Xiao Hei, you have quite a big family, don''t you?!'' Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise.
"Impossible! Why haven''t I heard anything about that?" Xiao Hei shouted in disbelief.
"Pfffft... Ahahahaha... what a stupid question! Of course, it was because your ''wise'' father already killed them all!" The fake dragonughed out loud as if it heard something so funny.
Tang Li Xue: ''?!''
"Impossible! You are lying!" Xiao Hei shouted in anger as his eyes turned bloodshot. If not for the fake dragon was stronger than him, Xiao Hei would probably already pounced and beat the crap out of it.
Chapter 85 - 85: Vague Line between Good and Evil
Chapter 85 - 85: Vague Line between Good and Evil
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not care about Xiao Hei''s anger or disbelief.
Actually, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was toozy to talk or care about any humans if not for its intention to educate its littless.
It peeked on Tang Li Xue from the corner of its eyes. Red-Eyes Winged Lizard decided to continue after making sure that Tang Li Xue was still listening to its words so attentively.
"Tsk... what use for me to tell any lies to you? Although I have been locked up in here for who knows how long but it does not mean I cannot use my power to look at what all you humans do in your sect. At least, I can relieve my boredom if I observe some of the interesting things you humans do!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizardzily retorted to Xiao Hei.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was already imprisoned here for too long so sometimes, if it felt bored, it would always use its power to peek on how these evil malicious humans tricked, tortured, and decimated each other. Simr to how modern people watch TV dramas for amus.e.m.e.nt.
"Your grandfather is the previous Patriarch! Do you really think he is such an idiot that he was not aware of what your uncle did? Boy... do you really think your grandfather really honestly supports you to be the next Patriarch?" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard squinted its giant red eyes and said with a mocking tone.
Xiao Hei closed his eyes to calm himself down and let his mind processed the shocking information he got from Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s words were unpleasant in his ears, but Xiao Hei was not an idiot. From the five elders'' reactions, he knew that all the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s words were the truth.
Xiao Hei always felt that all the people by his side always hid things from him but no matter what Xiao Hei did, he still could not force them to tell him anything. Now was the only chance for Xiao Hei to know everything, so he could not let his ego get in his way.
He should use this chance to know everything, and decide what he will do next after that!
"Boy, do you what Gu is? Do you know how to create Gu? It is by sealing venomous snakes, scorpions, and centipedes in a jar, forcing them to fight and devour each other until thest, strongest one remains. Does it feel familiar with what your grandfather did to you, your father, uncles, and aunts?" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s words were really toxic and each of its words was slicing at Xiao Hei''s heart, piece by piece.
"And you, littless, don''t you know that what is happening right now is because of what you did at that alchemist house?! That boy''s grandfather became anxious because what you did was hurting his sect''s interest so much. That is why his grandfather decided to give that Fatty Mo a chance, and also why his n ran so smoothly this time." Red-Eyes Winged Lizard yfully tapped his giant w on Tang Li Xue''s furry head and lightly reprimanded her.
''Eh... Me? What happened here is because of me?! Wh... Why?! '' Tang Li Xue raised her furry head and stared at the fake dragon full of doubt.
"But... tsk, tsk, tsk, that Fatty Mo is really amazing. You should know that Fatty Mo was not like this at first. He was a simple, timid, unambitious, and untalented boy. Even his martial soul was only 2nd grade at best. Everyone in your sect, including your grandfather, your father, and your other uncles were looking down on him. Except one of your aunts who always spoiled him." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was smiling as it remembered how Mo Chonglin struggled against all odds at that time.
"That Fatty Mo was a dimwit when he was a child and everyone always bullied him every day. You simply could not imagine how hard his life was before. For him, your aunt, that Mo girl was his entire world. She always stood up for that Fatty Mo, she alsoforted and cheered him up whenever he was sad." Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s true, talkative nature started toe up again, and it told the entire story to Xiao Hei.
"But your grandfather forced that Mo girl to marry someone she did not love. In the end, she eloped with that fatty Mo to a small mortal vige, but your grandfather ordered your father to hunt and kill them. I also do not know what happened there when your father hunted them outside the sect, but that Mo girl died by your father''s hand and that Fatty Mo was locked up in the ancestral hall by your grandfather for ten years. After he was released from there, his personalitypletely changed to what he is today." Red-Eyes Winged Lizard continued to tell Mo Chonglin''s story full of enthusiasm to Xiao Hei.
"So dramatic, right?! So amusing, right?! Hahaha... Uhhh... Cough... Cough... So actually, the one that made him how he is now was your father." Red-Eyes Winged Lizard coughed out embarrassingly when it realized that it almost forgot its true objective was not to chat with this vile human but to warn its littless on how evil the humans could be.
''I.n.c.e.s.t? Is this the i.n.c.e.s.tuous marriage? Wooaah... that fatty uncle has such a sad love story?! Damn... Fatty uncle, why don''t you make your own novel or movie! So do all antagonists in real life have their own dramas like this?!'' Even Tang Li Xue started to respect the annoying fatty uncle after she heard his story.
"Uhum... So your grandfather is only using your father and you as a whetstone to sharpen your uncle. That fatty Mo is the true demon king chosen by your grandfather to lead your sect in the future! Actually, your grandfather was nning to use you a little bit longer but what littless did to that alchemist, pill stock, and herb garden changed your grandfather''s mind. That is why you ended up here in the end!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s tone turned cold once again.
Xiao Hei frowned deeply because he still could not ept all Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s words. He opened his mouth wanted to ask several questions to clear all of his doubts but before he could do that...
"Here hees..." Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s expression turned solemn as it murmured.
"Honorable beast lord, I am Mo Chonglin, the new patriarch of Asura Demon Sect. Forgive me for my impudence but I have a task to arrest some traitors who entered your ce." Mo Chonglin''s loud voice resounded from outside the fake dragon''s fortress.
Tang Li Xue shuddered slightly when she heard Mo Chonglin''s voice and she felt slight fear toward him now since this fatty uncle basically already killed her once before in Xiao Hei''s residence.
"I will be really grateful if your honorable could give those traitors to us now and I will be sure to reward your honorable highly, but if your honorable does not want to bother with it, then I will personally enter your honorable''s ce to catch all the traitors myself. I will wait for your honorable''s answer for one minute."
Mo Chonglin continued with a respectful tone without appearing either threatening or overbearing but his aim was clear.
Mo Chonglin already had heard about the high-ranking demonic beast confined in here from several old elders, but he would never think that high-ranking demonic beast inside would shelter his nephew.
Anyway, Mo Chonglin had 100% confidence that he could still kill his nephew even if that high-ranking demonic beast would try to protect his nephewter.
The high-ranking demonic beast inside was still chained with special chains that sealed and absorbed its vitality energy after all.
But demonic beasts without its vitality energy was not the same as humans without their Qi!
Demonic beast without their vitality energy could still use their divine abilities by consuming their physical stamina like what Tang Li Xue did all this time but humans without their Qi could not use any of their martial skills or spells!
However, how many percentages of strength that high-ranking demonic beast could use without its vitality energy was a different matter.
Moreover, we should not forget that the fake dragon did not have any shred of intention to protect Xiao Hei and his people at all!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue started to rack her brain really hard once more.
''It would be alright if Xiao Hei got killed by his fatty uncleter since I already used myst [Substitute Doll] to protect Xiao Hei''s life but what if he got caught instead?!''
''Wait a minute... this is not good either! if Xiao Hei got killed here, he should be only teleported a few miles from this fake dragon''s fortress... it means he would still inside this sect! And someone is bound to see or find him again sooner orter if that someone informed the fatty uncle that Xiao Hei was still alive after being killed before, his fatty uncle would surely execute Xiao Hei once more!''
''Dammit! Is there really no other way out?! Should I give up and run away from here by myself? With my [Ethereal Form] it should be easy for me to escape from here! Well... at least I should be able to escape using my [Ethereal Form] before that uncle barge in and see me! Uaaarrrggghhh... Damn... what should I do now?!''
Chapter 86 - 86: The Way Out!
Chapter 86 - 86: The Way Out!
''Yosh... I already do what I could and nothing I can do anymore now! It will always be better for one person dead rather than two, right?! Eerrr... one person plus one beast to be exact... Ok then, Xiao Hei good luck for you! ADIOS!''
When Tang Li Xue wanted to activate her [Ethereal Form] and go far away from here as soon as possible...
"Xiao Bai..." Xiao Hei called Tang Li Xue while slowly approached her.
Xiao Hei kneeled down while taking off a ring ne from his neck.
The ring in particr was very exquisite like a piece of art carved carefully by the supreme master. It was made from unknown special metal that kept shining with a dim azure light. With one nce, Tang Li Xue instantly knew that this ring should be very valuable.
"This ring is my only clue to find my mother... but it looks like I will not have any more chance to meet her... Xiao Bai, now I will give this ring to you! If someday you meet with a woman who recognizes this ring just tell her that her son perished bravely in the battle." Xiao Hei was smiling full of gentleness and he put his ring ne onto Tang Li Xue''s neck.
When the ring ne dr.a.p.ed on her neck, the ne chain was adjusted by itself, and its size instantly fitted with Tang Li Xue''s tiny neck now.
Xiao Hei embraced Tang Li Xue''s tiny body for onest time in his arms and whispered some advice to her: "Xiao Bai, no one would take care of you from now on after I am gone so you have to take good care of yourself... make sure to always be on guard to others. If you have a chance, go as far as you can from this sect, and remember to not let anyone see you!"
Xiao Hei did not know Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] clearly but he surely knew that Tang Li Xue had the ability to turn herself invisible after spent so much time together.
Xiao Hei pushed the dumbfounded Tang Li Xue to the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
He did not know what the rtionship between Tang Li Xue and this beast lord was but he could clearly feel from the beast lord attitude that it hates him and his people so much. It only sheltered them because his Xiao Bai was the one that brought them here.
"Exalted Beast Lord, please take care of Xiao Bai..." Xiao Hei bowed his head and pleaded the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard nodded its giant head while kept staring at the human in front of him with a bit of respect this time.
The human in front of it was a respectable Patriarch of Asura Demon Sect. He was so cold and prideful before. For him to bow so deeply to a beast should be very humiliating but he still did it to make sure that littless would stay safe here under its protection.
"Let''s go out!" Xiao Hei waved his hand and said it to his group.
The five elders followed behind Xiao Hei without any hesitation and they walked toward the Fortress Gate.
"After we go out, all of you should surrender. Our sect''s current strength is currentlyckingpared with the other sect, so I am sure my uncle will not make it difficult for you all." Xiao Hei said with a cold voice.
"But... Young Patriarch!" The five elders wanted to protest.
"This is myst order!" Xiao Hei shouted with a stern tone to silence them all.
Without waiting for anyone to rebuke or answer hisst order, Xiao Hei opened the fortress giant gate and went out without any trace of fear or hesitation in his eyes.
Tang Li Xue felt the extreme sadness flooding her heart the moment she saw Xiao Hei''s lonely back when he went out of the fake dragon''s fortress.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth full of unwillingness as her mind spun faster trying to think a way to save her Xiao Hei from this predicament.
''Xiao Hei... oh, Xiao Hei... Do you really need to give me your mother''s memento andst warm hug?! Sigh... It made me really want to help you with my all!''
''Dammit! Dammit! Is there really no other way to help him?! Is there really no other way to save him now?! Wait a minute... My system! I have one more [Greater Lucky Sticker] in my system inventory! Should I really use it on Xiao Hei now? There is no more time! I should... ehhh... wait a minute... luck!''
Tang Li Xue remembered that other than three [Substitute Doll], she also got three other items.
''Hopefully, my [Greater Lucky Sticker]''s buff that time was not wasted!''
[Sub-Profession Package]...
''Looking at the item''s name, it should be used to pick or get sub profession''s knowledge or item like the alchemist, array master, or whatever it is... useless for me now! Next!''
[Restoration Elixir]...
''At first, I did not get it what was the difference between this item and [Recovery Pill] but now I already guessed its function from its name. [Recovery Pill] could only be used by living creatures to recover from any injuries but this [Restoration Elixir] should be used to restore the broken item such as broken vase... but again this is useless in my current situation! Next!''
[Divine Ability Talisman]...
''Thest one! This is my only hope or I can only use my super precious [Greater Lucky Sticker] to help Xiao Hei... too wasteful! Sigh... what is the use of this item? Err... how to use this item anyway?!''
Tang Li Xue held the [Divine Ability Talisman] tightly as she started to examine it more closely.
[You can store any divine ability in this talisman and use it anytime without consuming any stamina or vitality energy. The first time this talisman activated, it would store any divine ability it touched. The second time this talisman activated, it would release the divine ability stored inside. Do you want to activate it now? (One-time use only)]
''Eh?! It can store and release any divine ability?! What a good stuff! But... sigh... what a pity this item is useless for now! Should I activate my [Ethereal Form] now then stick my [Greater Lucky Sticker] to Xiao Hei?''
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment as she stored all of her items back into her system inventory then took out her one and only [Greater Lucky Sticker] out.
Actually, she was still very hesitant to use this [Greater Lucky Sticker] even if it for her concubine. She got a hunch that if she used it when she evolves, she would definitely get many benefits such as a powerful divine ability, strongest species, overpowered stats enhancement, and many more.
''Eh... wait... wait a minute... it can store and release any kind of divine ability, right? What if I store my [Ethereal Form] divine ability and use it to... ''
Tang Li Xue''s gaze wandered to the fake dragon that still bounded near her.
''WOOOOHOOOOO!!! I got this! YES! ACTIVATE IT NOW!''
When [Divine Ability Talisman] activated, it started to shine with a dim purple light but only Tang Li Xue can see it, even the fake dragon near her did not notice anything strange happened at all.
[Ethereal Form] active!
[Divine ability: Ethereal Form stored! Reminder: continuous-type divine ability can only be activated for 10 minutes!]
After [Divine Ability Talisman] sessfully stored Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form], the dim purple light stopped shining and [Divine Ability Talisman] returned back like before.
Tang Li Xue examined her [Divine Ability Talisman] for a moment while thinking about how she could exin her n to the fake dragon.
[Divine Ability Talisman (Ethereal Form)]
''Woah... great! My time is so tight! I don''t have any more time to exin it to the fake dragon! Hopefully, this fake dragon is wise enough to understand what it should do!''
Tang Li Xue waved both of her paws to attract the fake dragon''s attention.
"Littless, what do you want to do now? But remember, no matter what you want to do, you definitely cannot go out now!" The fake dragon put its angry expression and said with a stern tone.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and her tiny figure immediately disappeared like the thin air right in front of the fake dragon''s eyes.
The fake dragon already knew that Tang Li Xue had a stealth ability capable to turn herself invisible since the first time they met but it still did not understand what Tang Li Xue nned to do now.
Tang Li Xue walked to the Fortress gate and deactivated her [Ethereal Form]. The fake dragon could spot her shortly after, she waved her paws toward it as if inviting it to go outside then push the Fortress gate open.
"What are you... STOP! YOU! DO YOU REALLY WANT TO DIE?!" The fake dragon roared angrily.
After doing all of that, Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] back. She made it as if she went outside to chase after Xiao Hei but actually, she went back inside.
Tang Li Xue silently approached the fake dragon, and threw [Divine Ability Talisman (Ethereal Form)] toward it!
''ACTIVE!''
Tang Li Xue said in her mind the moment her [Divine Ability Talisman (Ethereal Form)] stuck on the fake dragon''s body!
Chapter 87 - 87: Red-Eyes Winged Lizard Prowess!
Chapter 87 - 87: Red-Eyes Winged Lizard Prowess!
Tang Li Xue''s [Divine Ability Talisman (Ethereal Form)] dissipated after she activated it for the second time.
But the fake dragon huge brown body in front of Tang Li Xue immediately vanished into thin air!
ng... ng... ng... ng... ng...
All of the ck chains made of mysterious metal used to bind the fake dragon before started to drop lifelessly onto the ground. With this, Tang Li Xue''s task was already halfplete!
However, the thick ck chains were not the only ones that binding the fake dragon here! The reason for this strange fortress called ''the Confinement Fortress'' was because it also yed an important role in confining the fake dragon within this sect.
''I really hope this fake dragon doesn''t use any of its divine abilities while in [Ethereal Form] before going out from this ugly fortress or its [Ethereal Form] would be canceled! If this fake dragon is really that fool then all of my efforts would be in vain!''
Of course, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was not stupid. With its keen sense as a high-level beast, it could even feel that Tang Li Xue had not really left its fortress but it still confused with what Tang Li Xue wanted to do.
But now...
For the first time, after so many years...
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard raised one of its giant sharp ws in disbelief and stared at it for a few moments.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was still almost believed that it still slept and this was only in its dream.
Just how long... did it dream for this!
It almost forgot how it feels to move its own limbs!
Just when it was still stunned in disbelief, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard saw Tang Li Xue dashed toward the fortress wall and passed right through it from the corner of its eyes. She really ran outside this time.
Yes, it really could see Tang Li Xue right now even when she still in her [Ethereal Form].
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard also did not know why but it guessed that it can saw her because they were in the same ''form'' or ''state'' right now.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard stiffened its expression and for the first time after who knows how long... it started to dash with its four limbs and its gigantic body also passed through the Confinement Fortress solid wall without any difficulty!
When the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard stepped outside of the Confinement Fortress, the first ray of today morning sun also started to rise from the corner of the world.
For the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard, this was undoubtedly the most beautiful moment in its life!
It slowly closed its eyes and greedily sucked its first fresh air outside the stuffy Confinement Fortress.
"So this is the smell of freedom..." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard giant mouth full of sharp fangs started to curve upwards.
RRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR~~!!!
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard roared out so loudly, itpletely forgot that it was still stood in the middle of crowds as if it was trying to dere itse back to every corner of the world.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s deafening roar wounded more than half of all the elders who surrounded the Confinement Fortress.
Fortunately, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard still had its conscience and used the portion of its power to protect the weakest being here... Tang Li Xue or she would probably die unjustly because of it.
Even Xiao Hei felt his blood started to churn violently and he also almost spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Among all of the people present here, only Mo Chonglin did not felt anything and he only frowned deeply.
Tang Li Xue kept dashing toward Xiao Hei under the protection of Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s golden barrier and she jumped onto Xiao Hei''s shoulder.
"EVERYONE BACK OFF AS FAR AS YOU CAN!" Mo Chonglin quickly shouted with a stern tone.
Every elder was still confused about what happened but Mo Chonglin''s authority was unquestionable, all of them subconsciously obeyed it.
Unfortunately, all of them were still one step toote!
BWOOOOOOSSSSSHHHH~~!!!
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard opened its giant mouth and spraying out arge amount of destructive golden mes on its surrounding!
From its right... to its front... then continue to its left... even its behind...
Anyone that licked by its me would surely be turned into dust!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s golden me did not extinguish at all even after it touched the ground! It still burns fiercely created a frightening hot me wall around Red-Eyes Winged Lizard!
No one dares toe close to it even Mo Chonglin!
Because Red-Eyes Winged Lizard used his golden mes, its [Ethereal Form] instantly broke, and its majestic imposing body that resembles a dragon was clear for everyone to see!
Everyone here could clearly felt the enormous pressure emitted by it.
Its dreadful huge red eyes almost made everyone see it lost their courage. In fact, if not for their blind trust in their leader, Mo Chonglin''s strength, they would already turn around and ran as far as they could from here.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard sucked its breath deeply once again. The destructive golden mes started to gather inside its throat with a far higher concentration than before.
Mo Chonglin''s expression turned really solemn and he also started to circte his violent Qi to defend himself.
Different from before, this time Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not spit out the golden mes.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard shot out an enormous golden pir made from the concentrated golden mes packed with tremendous destruction power!
''Woooaaahhh!!! This... isn''t thisser cannon?!''
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s target was not Mo Chonglin or anyone here but the Sect Protection Array above them!
The Sect Protection Array was a very strong barrier used to protect Asura Demon Sect from any external force but now it was used as a cage to confine Xiao Hei inside the sect.
However now, it was also confining the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard inside this Asura Demon Sect!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard could not bear to stay in this rotten sect any longer so of course, the first thing it must do was destroying this strong barrier that obstructing its way!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM~~!!!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s golden pir made from its concentrated mes crashed onto the solid barrier wall.
It made the deafening crashing sound that almost shattered everyone''s eardrums in the Asura Demon Sect.
All other beasts in the Asura Demon Sect also started to get restless and started to go berserk.
The array''s solid barrier did not immediately shatter like ss but Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s managed to create some crack on it.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not give up! It kept focused its attack on the cracked ce.
After a few moments, the crack started to spread, and in the end... CLAAAAANG!!!
The Sect Protection Array above them finally shattered!
Under the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s relentless attack, it finally managed to create an enormous gaping hole on the Sect Protection Array!
Actually, if Red-Eyes Winged Lizard attacked from outside the sect, it would not be able to shatter Asura Demon Sect''s Great Protection Array''s barrier at all even if it attacked for several days on the same spot.
Fortunately, Asura Demon Sect''s Great Protection Array''s barrier had the same characteristic as the other protection barrier.
It was very solid and almost indestructible if attacked from outside but very brittle if attacked from inside!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard coughed a bit as its throat felt dry and burning after forcefully shooting out thoserge concentrated golden mes.
It looks like the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard would not be able to use its extremely lethal golden mes anymore for today.
But it also did not n to stay in this sect and start ughter anyone in its sight like a mad beast.
Everything was okay as long as it sessfully escapes from this rotten sect for now.
It can exact its revenge sooner orter after it got stronger and evolve into a spirit beast in the future!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s eyes darted around and he managed to find where Tang Li Xue was in an instant but Tang Li Xue quickly hid inside Xiao Hei''s clothes.
Of course, she hid not because she was afraid of Red-Eyes Winged Lizard would hurt her but because she was afraid that Red-Eyes Winged Lizard would bring her out from this sect without her Xiao Hei.
Actually, Tang Li Xue''s guess was 100% correct.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard only wanted to bring her out from this sect. As for a filthy human like Xiao Hei? It did not care even one bit about his life at all.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard groaned when it saw Tang Li Xue hid inside Xiao Hei''s clothes.
It understood what Tang Li Xue implied. She wanted it to bring her and that male human out from this sect.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was not willing but it still reached out its giant w and grabbed Xiao Hei in the end and threw him on its back.
"Hold on tight littless! And warn that boy of yours to not touch anything on my back!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard expanded its wide wings.
One single p of his almost one hundred meters wide wing made many elders near it flew backward and smashed onto the nearby buildings.
After its wide wings pped several times Red-Eyes Winged Lizard started to fly toward the giant gaping hole on the Sect Protection Array!
At first, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was flying so clumsy and it almost crashed onto one of the towers!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard also shook so much and almost made Xiao Hei and Tang Li Xue fell down from its back. Well, it was confined for too long after all so it was reasonable that it almost forgot how to fly.
But after a few minutes, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard managed to get a hang of it and fly out from the Asura Demon Sect!
''Uwehehehe... Goodbye, fatty uncle! I hope we don''t meet again in the future!'' Tang Li Xue peeked her furry head out. She grinned widely and waved her paw on Asura Demon Sect''s direction.
Chapter 88 - 88: Chase to Kill!
Chapter 88 - 88: Chase to Kill!
The entire Asura Demon Sect was thrown into extreme chaos.
At first, all the sect disciples got a sudden lockdown orderst night and if any disciples got caught wandering outside from their cultivation cave, they would be expelled from the sect immediately.
But now, there was a sudden deafening sound that made them injured internally just from hearing it.
Some brave sect disciples even decided to ignore the sect''s order and checked where that deafening sound came from only to find that there was a giant gaping hole on the protection array right above them.
From those several brave sect disciples to the other disciples, the news quickly spread to the other people in the Asura Demon Sect like a wildfire spread on the lush forest bringing panic and chaos along with it.
Many elders on both sides injured and panicked under this current situation but several quick-witted elders on Mo Chonglin''s decided to chase Red-Eyes Winged Lizard as fast as they could so they took out their flying sword.
Unfortunately, theypletely forgot that no one can fly using any tools or Qi as long as the Sect Great Protection Array still activating so when they jumped on their flying sword, they tumbled back down and nted their face onto the ground.
Only Mo Chonglin could stay calm like water without any ripple under this kind of situation.
Even his n almost crumbled apart now, his face was still expressionless and his mind was still thinking normally.
However, his brain was revolving faster and faster. He analyzed many scenes and every kind of different scenario yed countless times in his mind.
It only took a few seconds for Mo Chonglin to make some contingency ns once again from the scratch and patch up his previous mistakes.
"Elder Shi, bring all uninjured elders or the lightly wounded ones and treat all the heavily wounded elders. Do not mind the cost, use the best medicine, and be sure to save all the mortally wounded ones too. I don''t want to see any elders died anymore! Do not forget to always keep your eyes on all the elders under my nephew''s side before!" Mo Chonglin started to gave hismands with a decisive tone.
"But the Young Patriarch..." Elder Shi wanted to ask why Mo Chonglin did not give them the order to chase after the Young Patriarch but he got silenced with Mo Chonglin''s cold stare.
Elder Shi could only swallow his words back into his throat. He nodded his head in obedience and did what Mo Chonglin told him to do in haste.
Mo Chonglin took out hismunication talisman and called another elder on his side in charge of activated and protecting the Great Sect Protection Array.
"Elder Lu... turned off the Great Sect Protection Array immediately then brings all your people to Elder Fan''s ce as fast as possible!" Mo Chonglin only said his order once and disconnected his call.
Mo Chonglin called another elder this time using hismunication talisman. He would not be a Cunning Demon Mo Chonglin if he did not make any contingency n in case his first n goes awry like now.
"Bring ''that'' out right now! Bring all your people and pick me up at the sect''s farm!" Mo Chonglin gave his order again with his cold voice.
Mo Chonglin ended up his call. He squinted his eyes and kept staring at where Red-Eyes Winged Lizard flew to before. His lips curved slowly upward formed a cold and cruel smile on his face.
''My dear nephew, do you really think everything is really over once you fly out from the sect? Unfortunately, I am afraid that your nightmare is still far from over...''
.....
...
.
Xiao Hei sighed out in relief after he saw the Asura Demon Sect already vanished from his sight as they fly farther and farther away from it.
"Senior, I am truly grateful for your help. Thank you very much! I promise that I will repay it back in the future!" Xiao Hei cupped his hands and bowed respectfully to the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
"HMPH! Littless, you owe me one for this! Uh... no, no, no... You owe me two including your own life!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said to Tang Li Xue gloomily with its coarse tone.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes whileining in her mind: ''You are This Queen own mount the moment This Queen release you! Saving This Queen or saving This Queen''s people is one of your jobs from now on! Why are you stillining like a nanny?!''
But there was something nagging in Tang Li Xue''s mind right now as if she forgot something very important.
''Strange... did I leave something important behind? Meh... oh well, it''s not like I can run back to retrieve it even if I remember what is it! Whatever...''
The moment Tang Li Xue rxed her body and mind, she started to get very sleepy. She almost fell asleep on Xiao Hei''s chest inside his warm clothes. Almost...
However, she immediately remembered something horribly important that she almost forgot before!
THERE WAS NO COMPLETE NOTIFICATION FROM HER SYSTEM!
It means they still have not escaped from Mo Chonglin''s grasp!
Tang Li Xue limp body jerked back as she jumped out from Xiao Hei''s chest onto his shoulder.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes solemnly stared back at the Asura Demon Sect''s direction.
"Xiao Bai?" Xiao Hei frowned a bit when he realized that Tang Li Xue acted strangely.
''My current quest is to save Xiao Hei out from the danger... since there is no ''questplete'' notification from the system until now, it means he is still not out from the danger! Dammit! That fatty uncle is truly persistent!''
"Hahaha... Littless, there is no need to worry that much! How could the speed of my precious wings lose to their flying swords? Even if they double their flying swords'' speed, they still would not be able to catch up to us!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard exined whileughing out loud at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s confidence wavered a bit under this fake dragon''s mocking but she still decided to believe in her instinct and system in the end and warned the fake dragon with his gesture.
She pointed her paw to the front, put a posture to dash, and waved both of her paws frantically.
''Fly forward... faster! Do not ck off!''
"Sigh... ok, ok, ok... I get it! What an overcautiousss!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizardzily pped his wide wings a few times to increase its flying speed.
Tang Li Xue turned her furry head back once more reluctantly to check and she immediately widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise. She even almost slipped and fell down from Xiao Hei''s shoulder but Xiao Hei caught her up immediately with both of his hands.
Tang Li Xue quickly poked Xiao Hei''s arm a few times and pointed her paw to his behind.
This time even Xiao Hei''s expression turned pale the moment he saw what behind them.
BWOOOOOSSSH~~!!!
A steel flying warship crashed out from below the thick cloud and appeared right behind them!
His uncle, Mo Chonglin, and a few strongest elders under hismand stood with the straight back on the steel flying warship''s deck!
The steel flying warship''s design was like a luxury yacht sailing on the sea attached with a pair of steel wings on both of its right and left sides. There was also a giant green array below the flying warship that helped to support its weight and stabilize it.
''Oh my God! What the hell is that bizarre thing?! A warne? No... It should be a warship? Such a big heavy thing but it could fly far faster than the jet fighter!''
''FIRE!" Mo Chonglin shouted out hismand loudly.
The warship''s bow opened and the big cannon pushed out from it.
''Dammit! What the hell?! I thought this Immortal World''s genre is a fantasy world! Is this world true genre changed into sci-fi or something?!''
Tang Li Xue almost wanted to curse out loud when she saw the giant cannon pointed at them from behind.
"Senior, watch out!" Xiao Hei shouted loudly to warn Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
"SHUT UP! I KNOW WHAT TO DO!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard gritted its fangs.
It already sensed the flying warship''s presence the moment it went out from below the cloud. The ship controller was so cunning, he made the giant steel warship flew at the low altitude first so it cannot sense it and let down its guard.
Then the steel warship immediately soared upward the moment it managed to get close to Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s back. The steel warship even already prepared its Spirit Cannon to ambush Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
Weng... Weng... Weeeeeng...
The frightening amount of spirit energy started to gather inside therge cannon and keep building up until it reached the peak!
BOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
The concentrated spirit energy inside the huge cannon exploded and shooting out an enormous crimson pir toward the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s direction!
"SHIT! HOLD ON TIGHT!" Eyes Winged Lizard shouted to warn Xiao Hei and Tang Li Xue on its back.
Eyes Winged Lizard pped its wide wings then immediately folded it!
Its gigantic brown body dropped down in an instant but it still was not enough to dodge the extremely lethal crimson pir behind it so it tilted its giant body a bit!
BAAAANG!!!
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard barely managed to dodge the deadly crimson pir but it still grazed its right shoulder and shattered the right horn on its head!
"DAMMIT! IT IS F*CKING HURTS! YOU BAST*RD, REMEMBER THIS! I PROMISE IF I SURVIVE TODAY I WILL DEFINITELY RETURN IT ONE HUNDREDFOLD SOMEDAY!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard cursed loudly with its coarse voice.
Chapter 89 - 89: Fierce Aerial Battle!
Chapter 89 - 89: Fierce Aerial Battle!
Xiao Hei''s condition was not any better than Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
Although, the Spirit Cannon''s concentrated crimson pir did not hit him directly but its destructive power still enough to roast any people near it.
The moment the lethal crimson pir almost hit the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard, Xiao Hei swiftly hugged Tang Li Xue''s tiny furry body and used his back to shield her from its destructive power.
''Xiao Hei!'' Tang Li Xue shouted full of worry in her mind.
The extreme heating from it should be roasted Xiao Hei''s back along with his right arm but fortunately, he was saved by Tang Li Xue''s [Substitute Doll] once again.
The right side of [Substitute Doll] that Tang Li Xue used to protect Xiao Hei was shattered leaving only the left side so only half of the Xiao Hei''s [Substitute Doll] remained intact.
This was the first time Xiao Hei and Tang Li Xue saw how powerful the Spirit Cannon was and the two of them were stunned silly by it.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw Xiao Hei unharmed but she also felt a bit guilty toward the fake dragon since she did not use her [Substitute Doll] to protect it but she only has two so she could only use it to protect herself and her quest objective, Xiao Hei.
"Dammit! Oi... Mo Boy! You are the current Sect''s Patriarch, right?! If your sect has something as powerful as that, why isn''t it in your hands?! Sh*t! You are so damn useless! Cheh... Now I know why your rotten grandfather choose that fatty Mo as his true sessor!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard asked Xiao Hei with an angry tone.
Xiao Hei''s expression turned darker when he heard what Red-Eyes Winged Lizard saying.
"Senior, please hold your anger for now. This is not the right time for us to quarrel, isn''t it?" Xiao Hei replied.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard unfolded its wide wings back and pping it a few times to increase its speed.
Actually, if the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not fold its wings timely before that deadly crimson pir hit his right shoulder, it would probably not only grazed its right shoulder but already destroyed its right-wing.
However, no matter what Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did, it still could not get away from Mo Chonglin''s steel warship.
It was clear that the steel warship had superior speed than the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard!
"It cannot continue like this! Every Spirit Cannon can shot once every ten minutes! We are lucky that they missed their first shot but I can feel it that it''s their first time shooting that Spirit Cannon! Their second shot would probably 50% more urate than the first time! We are really done for if we let them shot us again!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard shouted to Xiao Hei. It wanted Xiao Hei to think some ns too since two heads were obviously better than one head.
"How many spirit stones do they need to use to fire that thing?" Xiao Hei asked The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
"Every Spirit Cannon need a different amount of spirit stones to shot it. The more powerful its shot, the more spirit stones it needed. I don''t know for sure but ording to its destructive power, it would need at least 10 mid-tier spirit stones!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.briefly exined.
"10 mid-tier spirit stones?! Then I think, they probably would not shot it for the second time..." Xiao Hei gasped in shock but he quickly cleared his mind and answered.
Xiao Hei knew exactly his sect''s budget. Burning away 10 mid-tier spirit stones in one shot was too much even for his uncle but he must do it since he wanted to try the strength of that Spirit Cannon and to check it if it really works or not.
But that one shot should be his limit. Even if he really could shot it twice, he would certainly save the second shot for the critical moment!
10 mid-tier spirit stones were 10,000 low-tier spirit stones! It was the same as Asura Demon Sect''s entire budget for 10 years!
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard snorted disdainfully and mocking Xiao Hei once more: "You don''t even know that your uncle has that huge thing in his backyard! How could you know if he doesn''t have many mid-tier spirit stones in his pocket?"
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard wanted to keep mocking Xiao Hei again but before it could do that, Mo Chonglin''s steel warship already caught up to them. In fact, it was already flying above the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
Mo Chonglin and several elders jumped down from the steel warship''s deck!
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard: ''?!''
Xiao Hei: ''?!''
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard forcefully changed its flying direction, it tilted its giant body to the left side tried to dodge Mo Chonglin and his people. It did not want them tond on its back!
Mo Chonglin and the elders swiftly took out two items from their spatial rings, a flying sword, and a chained hook.
They threw down their flying sword and use it as their foothold. They also threw their chained hook toward the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard!
Their chained hook managed to grip onto Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s rough hard scales!
ROOOOOOOAAAAARRRRR~~!!!
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard roared angrily and it quickly spun his gigantic body on the air trying to forcefully throw Mo Chonglin and his people away with centrifugal force!
Fortunately, Xiao Hei swiftly got down and held on tightly on the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s back the moment he heard its angry roar.
Several of Mo Chonglin''s elders blew away because they did have enough time to hold their chained hook properly.
"There is no need to advance for now! Just hold on to your position properly! It would tire itself very soon!" Mo Chonglin ordered his people calmly.
Mo Chonglin''s order did not wrong at all.
Not long after he said it, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard already felt dizzy and a bit tired since its vitality energy had not recovered yet so it could only use his physical stamina for now!
"Dammit! If only I can use my Nirvana mes now, I would already turn all of them along with their steel toy into dust by now!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard mumbled to itself. Of course, it would never say it out loud to tell Mo Chonglin and his people about its own weakness.
"Grand Elder... errr... Patriarch, we are already in the position right now!" A sound came out from Mo Chonglin''smunication talisman in his chest.
Mo Chonglin''s lips curved upward formed a cruel cold smile on his face as he replies: "Hold Destroyer''s position for a few minutes! I want to see how strong this beast truly is!"
"It''s time for you to open your eyes... Go berserk, Twin-Horned Thunder Python!" Mo Chonglin shouted as a giant purple snake slowly materialized above him.
Bzzzt... Bzzzt... Bzzzt...
The giant purple snake had a pair of sharp ck horns on its head and its entire body was covered by dense purple-colored lightning.
"SIXTH RANK MARTIAL SOUL?! How could it be?! My uncle''s martial soul should be only at second rank?!" Xiao Hei widened his eyes in shock and shouted in disbelief.
Xiao Hei''s martial soul himself was only at seventh rank! That was why he called a peerless genius while his deceased father''s martial soul was at sixth rank.
In other words, Mo Chonglin has the martial soul at the same rank as his father, the Asura Demon Sect''s previous genius!
Even Tang Li Xue started to frown when she heard Xiao Hei''s words.
''This fatty uncle is really troublesome! ording to my guide, it should be impossible for the people in this world to evolve their martial soul so how could he do it?! Sigh...''
Mo Chonglin''s Twin Horned Thunder Python pounced to Red-Eyes Winged Lizard as swift as lightning and bit its tail full of thick scales!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
Twin Horned Thunder Python used his dense purple lightning to electrocuted Red-Eyes Winged Lizard!
The other elders on Mo Chonglin''s side also summoned out their martial soul but their form and rank were below Mo Chonglin. Their martial soul was only at fourth or fifth rank so they could only turn them into weapons rather than use it to fight directly like Mo Chonglin.
Unfortunately for Mo Chonglin, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s scales were too thick and its defense was too high!
In fact, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not even feel an itch after receiving Twin Horned Thunder Python''s attack!
It was not bluffing when it told Tang Li Xue that only a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator can hurt it.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard swung its tail forward while it spun its giant body and waved its sharp giant w toward the Twin Horned Thunder Python.
Mo Chonglin frowned but he certainly would not let his martial soul ripped to pieces by Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s sharp w so he quickly shouting out: "Weaponized, Purple Thunder Crescent de!"
The Twin Horned Thunder Python''s body turned into dense purple lightning and flew back toward Mo Chonglin before Red-Eyes Winged Lizard could hit it!
Its giant purple snake form changed into a long purple guandao!
"It did not work. It has an impregnable defense! Let''s change to n B! Destroyer, are you still in your position?!" Mo Chonglin held on the chained hook tightly with his right hand while holding his Purple Thunder Crescent de on his left hand.
"Yes! We are still in position! ''That'' is also already activated! n B is ready!" Mo Chonglin''smunication talisman replied.
"GOOD!" Mo Chonglin signaled the other elders on his side with his re and they also nodded back toward him.
Xiao Hei noticed that Mo Chonglin and his people were changed their n and surely they were up to no good so he quickly summoned out his Nine-Petal Blood Lotus out and changed its form into a blood-red sword!
Chapter 90 - 90: Life or Death Duel!
Chapter 90 - 90: Life or Death Duel!
Mo Chonglin raised his Purple Thunder Crescent de toward the sky and the thick purple lightning started to concentrate on the tip of its de.
Mo Chonglin used all of his strength to pull the chain on his right hand and his body flew forward to where Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was.
He twisted his fat body on the mid-air skillfully while spinning his Purple Thunder Crescent de. The purple lightning on his weapon getting more and more concentrated, it even made a terrifying loud crackling sound.
Purple Thunder Wrath!
Mo Chonglin descended on Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s back and he swung his Purple Thunder Crescent de toward Xiao Hei!
Xiao Hei calmly gripped his blood-red sword with both of his hands and put it in front of him to defend Mo Chonglin''s attack. He also activated one of his martial soul unique skills right before Mo Chonglin''s attack hit him!
Blood Devour!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
Mo Chonglin''s Purple Thunder Crescent de shed hard with Xiao Hei''s blood-red sword!
The purple thunder packed full with destructive power mowing down toward Xiao Hei but it quickly swallowed by an intense crimson light emitted by Xiao Hei''s blood-red sword!
Xiao Hei''s martial soul was stronger and rank higher than Mo Chonglin but unfortunately, Xiao Hei''s cultivation was far lower than Mo Chonglin.
The peak of the Core Formation Stage versus the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage!
The result can be easily predicted...
Under Mo Chonglin''s heavy strike, Xiao Hei mmed hard downward onto Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s back and his body kept sliding a few meters backward.
Mo Chonglin did not give Xiao Hei any time to take a breath as he thrust his Thunder Crescent de forward to chase after Xiao Hei.
Xiao Hei spun his body on the ground and kicked Thunder Crescent de upward!
Mo Chonglin removed his right hand from his Thunder Crescent de and threw his right palm toward Xiao Hei that still lying down on the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s back.
Xiao Hei could feel that his situation was not looking good so he quickly kicked the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s back and reverse somersault backward!
7thyer of Heaven Splitting Wave!
Mo Chonglin''s palm fiercely stomped on Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s back!
ROOOOOOAAAAARRRRRR~~!!!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s giant body dropped down suddenly as if it was tugged down by something heavy.
With Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s thick defense, it was impossible for Mo Chonglin to hurt it even if he used his 7thyer of Heaven Splitting Wave but it did not mean his heavy attack would not affect its course!
This sudden turn of event threw the unprepared Xiao Hei off from Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s back.
Xiao Hei quickly took his flying sword out from his spatial ring. He twisted his body in mid-air and gracefullynded on his flying sword.
BAAAAAM!!!
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s heavy body actuallynded on something among the cloud!
"Activate it now!" Mo Chonglin shouted to hismunication talisman.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard: ''?!''
Xiao Hei: ''?!''
Tang Li Xue: ''?!''
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard actuallynded on Mo Chonglin steel warship''s deck that hid among the cloud!
Weeeeng~~!!!
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was really shocked when it saw a huge teleportation array shone under its feet!
"YOU..." Before the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard could finish its words, his majestic gigantic body instantly vanished in front of everyone''s eyes like an illusion.
This was Mo Chonglin''s ''n B'' since he and his people cannot defeat the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard so they could only forcefully teleport it tens of miles away from here.
Mo Chonglin did not need to kill Red-Eyes Winged Lizard anyway, he only needs to kill the previous patriarch, Xiao Hei so he could be crowned as a new patriarch!
''What the hell is happening here? It disappeared just like that?!'' Tang Li Xue peeked out her furry head from Xiao Hei''s chest and widened her eyes in disbelief.
When Xiao Hei and Mo Chonglin locked in an intense fight, Xiao Hei protected Tang Li Xue''s tiny body really well so she did not receive any damage from it.
Several elders flew out of Mo Chonglin''s steel warship and started to surround Xiao Hei.
Actually, Xiao Hei did not run, he only silently floating on his flying sword. He already knew that he cannot flee anymore since Mo Chonglin''s steel warship was far faster than his flying sword''s speed.
When several elders raised their weapon wanted to attack Xiao Hei, Mo Chonglin raised his palm signaled them to stop.
"I, Mo Chonglin, the new patriarch of Asura Demon Sect challenge the previous patriarch of Asura Demon Sect in life or death duel!" Mo Chonglin raised his Purple Thunder Crescent de and pointed it to Xiao Hei.
This duel was thest honor that Mo Chonglin could give to Xiao Hei as the patriarch of the same sect.
Mo Chonglin could catch Xiao Hei right now and slowly torture him to death but Mo Chonglin did not do it in the end.
This was thest respect that Mo Chonglin gave to Xiao Hei as his rtive.
Although, it was a bit shameless for the peak of Core Formation Stage to challenge the peak of Foundation Establishment Stage in life or death duel but at least, it was still one on one duel.
Xiao Hei also knew that he did not have any other choice other than epting this life or death duel so he slowly raised his blood-red sword and pointed it toward Mo Chonglin too.
"Xiao Bai... keep on living! Forget about revenge... just keep living your life to the fullest like before!" Xiao Hei whispered softly while inserted his right hand into his clothes and grabbed Tang Li Xue then threw her down.
''Xiao Hei! What are you...'' Before Tang Li Xue could finish her thinking, she saw Xiao Hei''s gant silhouette kept getting farther and farther from her sight as her furry tiny body fell down.
Mo Chonglin always kept his eyes on Xiao Hei so he could see that Xiao Hei threw a tiny white silver fox away while charging fiercely toward him to prevent him from moving!
Mo Chonglin: ''?!''
''Xiao Hei swung his blood-red sword while activating another unique skill, Blood Cover!
This skill was Xiao Hei''s Nine-Petal Blood Lotus defensive-type unique skill but he used it to limit Mo Chonglin''s move now.
But how could Mo Chonglin be restrained so easily?!
Purple Thunder sh!
''Xiao Hei''s Blood Cover easily shattered like a piece of fragile ss under Mo Chonglin''s Purple Thunder sh and it kept heading toward Xiao Hei''s shoulder.
Xiao Hei raised his blood-red sword to defend Mo Chonglin''s sh while used his right palm to attack Mo Chonglin''s Dantian!
4thyer of Heaven Splitting Wave!
Unfortunately, Mo Chonglin was faster than Xiao Hei so before Xiao Hei''s martial art skill could hit Mo Chonglin, he swiftly kicked Xiao Hei''s stomach made him flew backward like a bullet.
Xiao Hei could only stabilize his footing after a few meters away while coughing out several mouthfuls of blood.
"GO! TWIN HORNED THUNDER PYTHON! Kill that little fox for me!" Mo Chonglin threw his Purple Thunder Crescent de downward too to chase after Tang Li Xue.
"Xiao Bai!" Xiao Hei shouted anxiously and flew downward too. He was trying to stop Mo Chonglin''s martial soul.
However, Mo Chonglin surely would not let Xiao Hei do as he pleased! Mo Chonglin jumped forward to Xiao Hei as swiftly as lightning. He raised his palm aimed at Xiao Hei''s defenseless back.
7thyer of Heaven Splitting Wave!
Xiao Hei has no other choice other than twisted his body and raised his blood-red sword to defend against his uncle''s attack!
BAAAAAAAAAANG~~!!!
Mo Chonglin''s Heaven Splitting Wave not only destroyed Xiao Hei''s defense but its prative power also crushed Xiao Hei''s bone in his chest and assaulting his internal organ.
Xiao Hei spurted out several mouthfuls of blood from his mouth again but this time, he cleverly aimed it toward Mo Chonglin''s face.
Xiao Hei quickly turned back to chase after Tang Li Xue but unfortunately, it was already toote.
''Dammit! That fatty bast*rd! Is killing me that addictive?! He wants to kill me for the second time!''
Tang Li Xue quickly activated her [Golden Body] since Mo Chonglin''s Twin Horned Thunder Python was thunder element so she cannot evade its attack using [Ethereal Form]!
However, Tang Li Xue''s current cultivation and level were still far too lowpared to Mo Chonglin and his martial soul. His Twin Horned Thunder Python''s sharp fangs easily prated its tiny furry body. It injected its destructive thunder power and fried her body from inside out!
One of the [Substitute Doll] inside Tang Li Xue''s system inventory was exploded when her body turned into ashes.
"XIAO BAI!!!" Xiao Hei shouted as a few drops of tear flowing out from his eyes.
Twin Horned Thunder Python flew back to Mo Chonglin''s hand after doing its job and turned back into Purple Thunder Crescent de.
"MO... CHONG...LIN...!!!" Xiao Hei shouted. He gnashed his teeth as his intense anger and hatred reced his sadness.
"If I must die today then I would make sure to drag you with me! Nine-Petal Blood Lotus: Blood... Berserk...!!!" Xiao Hei raised his blood-red sword above his head.
Xiao Hei''s blood-red sword started to emit a blinding crimson light once again and it began to crazily drink Xiao Hei''s own blood!
Xiao Hei''s strength began to soar rapidly!!!
Onefold...
Twofold...
Threefold...
Fourfold...
Fivefold!!!
Xiao Hei''s eyes turnedpletely red as the grotesque crimson veins started to appear on his smooth skin!
Even Mo Chonglin''s expression turned solemn when he saw Xiao Hei''s transformation and the pressure emitting out from his current body could even threaten Mo Chonglin!
Chapter 91 - 91: Half Inch Away!
Chapter 91 - 91: Half Inch Away!
For the first time, Mo Chonglin saw Xiao Hei as someone worthy to be his opponent and as someone that held the same strength as him.
He nted his Purple Thunder Crescent de in front of him and held on to it tightly with both of his hands.
"COME!" Mo Chonglin shouted after he put his battle stance. His eyes shone full of fighting spirit.
Both of them stood up straight on their flying sword, floating above the cloud, with several tens of elders from Asura Demon Sect as witnesses for their life or death duel under the morning sun.
If Xiao Hei still had a sliver chance for survival, he would never use this Blood Berserk unique skill from his Nine-Petal Blood Lotus martial soul because 10 minutes after he used this unique skill, he would definitely die!
In other words, Xiao Hei exchanged his life to gain the strength equal to Mo Chonglin even though it was only just for 10 minutes!
Xiao Hei did not have much time so he was the first one to make the move!
He injected his Qi into his flying sword and his figure immediately vanished from Mo Chonglin''s sight.
''So fast!'' Mo Chonglin thought as he focused his mind and sharpened his divine sense more. He was trying to catch Xiao Hei''s movement with it.
Mo Chonglin spun his Purple Thunder Crescent de swiftly to protect his spine!
CLAAANG~~!!!
Mo Chonglin sessfully defended Xiao Hei''s first attack but Xiao Hei''s assault only just beginning.
The deafening sounds of metal meet with metal kept repeating hundreds of times in only a few seconds.
Xiao Hei barraged attacks after attacks non-stop with unbelievable speed, faster than even the sound speed!
Moreover, each of the Xiao Hei attacks had a tricky angle and very difficult to defend.
Torso... wrist... knee... neck... heart... back... shoulder...
Unfortunately, his opponent was Mo Chonglin, a cold-blooded veteran fighter who has been baptized by the blood of countless strong opponents.
Mo Chonglin calmly judged all Xiao Hei''s attacks trajectory and easily blocked or parried it.
All the elders that watched from the distance thought Xiao Hei was so strong now and he managed to push Mo Chonglin until Mo Chonglin did not have any chance to attack back but the truth was far from that.
Mo Chonglin knew the unique skill Xiao Hei used should have a limited duration and the reason Xiao Hei abandoned his defense to crazily attacked him because Xiao Hei wanted to goad him to attack back so he would reveal some opening.
Mo Chonglin knew what exactly was in Xiao Hei''s mind!
Xiao Hei wanted to trade blow after blow with him... something like you can take my limb but I will take your limb too!
However, someone like Mo Chonglin would never take any risk or fall for Xiao Hei''s n.
1 minute...
3 minutes...
5 minutes...
Mo Chonglin''s fingers, wrists, and arms began to felt numb and his thumb also bleeding but he still persisting on defending!
Xiao Hei also started hesitating... should he continue like this until Mo Chonglin''s solid defense broke and reveal some openings or should he risk everything in one strongest big move to kill Mo Chonglin?
In 8-9 minutes, Mo Chonglin almost could not felt his fingers anymore. If this situation continues, Xiao Hei would definitely break his defense sooner orter so he immediately forcefully spun his Purple Thunder Crescent de.
The destructive purple thunder started to discharge from his Purple Thunder Crescent de meet with Xiao Hei''s blood-red sword!
But Xiao Hei sneered coldly as the direction of his blood-red sword changed slightly before it touched Mo Chonglin''s Purple Thunder Crescent de!
PUUUUUUUFFF~~!!!
Mo Chonglin''s Purple Thunder Crescent de sunk deeply into Xiao Hei''s right shoulder while Xiao Hei''s blood-red sword shed into Mo Chonglin''s left shoulder.
"YOU!!!" Mo Chonglin was fuming with rage. He could not believe that even with his intelligence and prediction, he could still fell for his nephew''s plot in the end.
"Cough... Cough... GUUUUOOOOOOOHHHH!!!" Xiao Hei coughed several mouthfuls of blood but he immediately shouted out loud as his eyes shone full of madness and insanity.
Xiao Hei kept pushing his blood-red sword down deeper into Mo Chonglin''s left shoulder. It was clear that Xiao Hei wanted to split Mo Chonglin''s heart in two!
7thyer of Heaven Splitting Wave!
Mo Chonglin''s prative palm attack merciless struck Xiao Hei''s left chest. Mo Chonglin aimed to destroy Xiao Hei''s heart and kill him instantly.
Because Xiao Hei did not put any of his Qi to defend, Mo Chonglin''s attack managed to create a palm-sized hole at Xiao Hei''s left chest but unfortunately, Mo Chonglin did not know that Xiao Hei''s heart actually located at his right chest!
''CHANCE!'' Xiao Hei thought as he pushed his blood-red sword deeper and deeper into Mo Chonglin''s left shoulder, sliced Mo Chonglin''s corbone and arteries!
''VICTORY!''
''XIAO BAI... FINALLY... I AVENGED YOU!''
But Xiao Hei''s blood-red sword stopped at a half-inch from Mo Chonglin''s heart and all of his strength started to leave his body...
Mo Chonglin vomited out several mouthfuls of blood, he thought he would really die now but his nephew''s hand loosened and let go of his blood-red sword.
Xiao Hei felt all parts of his body turned to mush, even his knees turned limp, and unwillingly kneeled in front of Mo Chonglin. If not for his flying sword supporting him, Xiao Hei would already fell down.
10 minutes duration was already up... and Xiao Hei was only a half-inch away from killing Mo Chonglin...
Mo Chonglin stared pitifully at his nephew''s eyes that devoid of any hope.
"That was a good fight! You are very strong... Farewell, my nephew..." Mo Chonglin was breathing heavily as thick blood kept flowing out from his mouth but he still forced himself to say his final farewell to hisst rtive other than his father.
Mo Chonglin swung his Purple Thunder Crescent de onto Xiao Hei''s defenseless neck and PUUUUFFFF...
Xiao Hei''s head flew away from his body as Mo Chonglin''s Purple Thunder Crescent de cut his neck...
.....
....
.
Several miles away, inside the lush forest full of tall trees and thick bush.
An ugly straw doll teleported out from the void, it started to crack after it appeared and shattered in a few seconds.
With a tiny bang sound, the ugly straw doll exploded the tiny furry figure wasing out from the ugly straw doll!
The tiny furry figure twitched a bit when she slowly regained her consciousness and she slowly opened her topaz blue eyes.
''Cough... Cough... Oerrrkkkhhhh...'' Tang Li Xue wanted to puke out again but she cannot vomit anything out since her stomach alreadypletely empty.
''Dammit! Dammit! That fatty bast*rd! I swore that I will kill ten times more than he kills me! Since he killed me twice then I must kill him twenty times in the future!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anger.
After cursing Mo Chonglin so many times and calmed her anger for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue took out Xiao Hei''s [Substitute Doll] and started to think deeply.
''After Xiao Hei protected me from that whatever cannon''s attack, he coughed out blood each time he received any damage from that fatty uncle''s attack... why?! This [Substitute Doll] should be protecting him from any harm, right? Sigh... but this [Substitute Doll] is only half left... Is it still working? But I got killed twice and this ugly doll managed to save my life twice...''
When Tang Li Xue observing the half [Substitute Doll] on her paws, it vanished so suddenly from Tang Li Xue''s grip.
''Eh... it disappears?! Xiao Hei must have died too in his fatty uncle''s hands! So this ugly doll still works! Sigh... what a relief!''
DING!
[Quest Completed!]

[Congrattion! You have reached level 21! 2nd evolution menu avable!]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she finally received the notification from her system. It means she and Xiao Hei had finally escaped from Mo Chonglin''s grasp!
''I understand how [Substitute Doll] works now! It seems [Substitute Doll] are really protecting Xiao Hei and me but after we receive too much damage, half of it would shatter. We will receive any damage like usual after that but when we died it would instantly teleport us away whilepletely restored our body!''
If it was in the RPG game, the [Substitute Doll] would grant us two HP bars. The [Substitute Doll] would block all the damage for the user in the first HP bar but after the first bar depleted, the user would receive any damage like normal. When the second bar depleted too, it would teleport the user to the safe ce while healing the user''s HP bar to full...
But Tang Li Xue did not know that the [Substitute Doll] also had another hidden use. Not only it would teleport the user away randomly to the safe ce, but it would also leave behind the fake dead body as a decoy so the enemy would think his target truly died and not realize that the user actually still alive somewhere a few miles away from them like in Xiao Hei''s case!
Currently, even with Mo Chonglin''s high intelligence, he still had not realized that Xiao Hei''s dead body in front of him was actually a fake one!
Chapter 92 - 92: Severed Fate!
Chapter 92 - 92: Severed Fate!
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a while, should she try to find Xiao Hei first or find some food first?
She was extremely starving right now.
She did not eat any food and sip any drinks for more than one week!
In the end, she decided to find Xiao Hei first so he could cook some delicious roasted meats for her.
Tang Li Xue quickly activated her [Ethereal Form] and her tiny figure immediately vanished into thin air.
She realized that she was currently in the middle of an unknown forest full of unpredictable dangers so traveling with her [Ethereal Form] was the safest option.
''Bute to think of it... I don''t have any single clue about where I am at or Xiao Hei''s whereabouts... so how the hell I could find him?! Sigh... Let''s search for some preys and water first before I am starving to death!''
Tang Li Xue decided to proceed carefully even with her [Ethereal Form] activated since it still did not mean she waspletely safe even if her [Ethereal Form] grant her the perfect stealth ability. She learned it in a hard way when she was facing fatty uncle before.
With her [Ethereal Form], Tang Li Xue did not have any problem moving around the lush forest even with countless giant trees and dense bushes covered her way.
Her tiny transparent body easily passed through all obstacles whether rocks, trees, or bushes.
''Sigh... I have me of Pride as my offensive power, [Ethereal Form] as stealth movement skill, and [Golden Body] as defensive skill. But I really need some skills that can help me see far away through all of these obstructions... so I can find my prey or Xiao Hei easier.''
Tang Li Xue frowned when her sensitive nose strengthened by [Enhanced Sense of Smell] skill smelled the pungent smell of blood.
She wavered whatever she should check it or not... But this forest was also so strange...
It was too silent and she did not see any beast or bird until now!
She has a really bad feeling about this... It was like when she was about to face a strong hidden big boss in the RPG game!
Tang Li Xueughed at herself. She was not an indecisive person... errr... indecisive beast like this before when she was in Moonlight Forest and she did not even have [Ethereal Form] at that time.
But it also proved that she had grown more mature than before and she also had higher danger awareness after experienced several dangerous adventures in Xiao Hei''s sect.
Tang Li Xue decided to summon out her martial soul, the [Flying Golden Fish], and ordered it to scout ahead of her.
When Tang Li Xue was still in her [Ethereal Form], her martial soul, the [Flying Golden Fish] was also in [Ethereal Form] too since it counted as one of her body parts like her limbs.
For the first time, Tang Li Xue thanked her [Flying Golden Fish]''s martial soul for having [Flight] as one of its unique skills.
Usually, any martial soul could only hover above their owner''s head but thanks to its [Flight] unique skill, Tang Li Xue''s [Flying Golden Fish] can fly freely on the air like a bird!
Of course, Mo Chonglin''s [Twin Horned Thunder Python] did not need [Flight] unique skill to move on the sky since it can dash around using its thunder power.
Tang Li Xue found that her [Flying Golden Fish] martial soul could not be separated too far from her or it would automatically unsummoned by itself and she must summon it out once again.
Scouting 100 meters ahead was her [Flying Golden Fish] limit but at least, she could also see what [Flying Golden Fish] see, it was working like her second eyes.
Tang Li Xue could also order it to fly 100 meters higher from her so she could see farther ahead but unfortunately, she cannot do it here since the giant trees and tall bushes were too dense so it obstructed her vision.
Tang Li Xue instructed her [Flying Golden Fish] to check the source of that pungent smell of blood.
She was so starving right now that she started to imagine this pungent smell of blood as the fragrant aroma of delicious roasted meat.
Then her sneaky [Flying Golden Fish] martial soul managed to peek... a giant beast under the huge tree feasted upon arge ck tiger!
Tang Li Xue shuddered slightly in fear when she felt a terrible pressure emitted from the giant beast through her [Flying Golden Fish] martial soul.
She also judged that deadrge ck tiger as a [Umon] grade demonic beast, one grade higher than her!
''RETREAT!''
Tang Li Xue ordered her [Flying Golden Fish] martial soul through her mind but that giant beast already noticed that someone peeked at it eating from behind and it slowly turned its gigantic head toward the [Flying Golden Fish] direction.
A terrifying pair of red eyes full of murderous intent stared at back at Tang Li Xue''s [Flying Golden Fish] martial soul.
Tang Li Xue was scared out of her wits when she saw that pair of bloodshot eyes through her martial soul''s vision.
"Eh... This feeling... Littless, is that you?" The giant beast with the pair of chilling red eyes asked.
Tang Li Xue: ''.....''
Tang Li Xue dashed out toward that huge beast while turning off her [Ethereal Form] then she used all of her strength to kick that huge beast out of anger and embarrassment!
''As*hole! Scared me to death!''
Well... it was actually Tang Li Xue''s lost mount... err... lost friend, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard!
Unfortunately, her kick could only hurt her own feet since Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s scales were too thick but it did not stop her to keep kicking the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
"Hahaha... It is really you, littless! Hei... Hei... Hei... Stop it! I know you miss me and you are really scared of that fatty Mo but you know I am not his match without my vitality energy or my Nirvana me so I eat some meat here to regain some of my strength then I will immediately run back to help you! I swear this is my original n but since you are already here, it means I did not need to run back there anymore!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard tried to exin why it was cking here.
''HUMPH!'' Tang Li Xue turned her head away angrily.
"You... You are still angry? It''s not my fault, okay?! That fatty Mo is too cunning! He forcefully teleported me away using the teleportation array on that warship! Sigh... Hei, do you want to try this tiger meat? This meat is so nutritious! Here eat it slowly..."?The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard cut the ck tiger''s meat into tiny pieces easily with its sharp giant w and put it in front of Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue drooled when she saw the tiger raw meat in front of her. She impatiently pounced toward the tiger raw meat and bit it using her [Rip] skill.
Tang Li Xue was too starving to care about raw meat or roasted meat now.
[EXP Gained!]
[EXP Gained!]
"Eat slowly... there is still a lot of it." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizardughed and said to Tang Li Xue then it also continued its feast.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard and Tang Li Xue finished the entire huge ck tiger''s meat in a few minutes only leaving its bones behind and both of them lyingzily on the grassy ground with bloating stomach.
''Sigh... Now I only need to find where Xiao Hei is! It would be good if this fake dragon can help me but with its hatred toward humans, I doubt it will help me to find Xiao Hei... Oh well, I will find him by myself then!''
Tang Li Xue tried tomunicate with the fake dragon using her gesture like before.
''You wait here... I will go find Xiao Hei...''
"You still want to find that evil human? That is too dangerous! Don''t go! You are already very lucky you can escape! You will die if that fatty Mo finds you!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard frowned and rebuked Tang Li Xue harshly.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not know that Xiao Hei also already teleported away to a safe ce now so it thought Tang Li Xue wanted to go back to save Xiao Hei from Mo Chonglin.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes when she heard Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s words. She was toozy to exin what happened to Red-Eyes Winged Lizard. Who knows how long it would take for it to understand herplicated gesture.
Tang Li Xue turned her tiny furry body away and ran but Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was shouting at her once again.
"You, crazyss! Are you really falling in love with that filthy evil human?! He is unworthy of you! Humans and beast will never be fated to be together! It would only bring suffering to you!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard tried to exin while fuming in rage at Tang Li Xue.
''Love? Hmmm... Nope! But I kind of like being with him and I also like the roasted meat cooked by him... Oh well, maybe I like him a bit hehe...''
While Tang Li Xue in deep thought, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard trapped her tiny body between its giant ws from behind.
Tang Li Xue: ''?!''
"I am sorry, littless... But I am doing this for your own good so I hope you will not me me in the future!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard sighed as it used its other w to tap Tang Li Xue''s forehead.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s vitality energy already recovered a bit so it can use some of its hidden divine abilities with it.
''What the hell are you doing?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in anger.
The tip of Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s w shone with a dim golden light as it touched Tang Li Xue''s forehead.
Then memories about Xiao Hei started to fade away bit by bit...
His words...
His sounds...
His smile...
His face...
His promise...
The taste of his roasted meat...
Everything about him slowly vanished...
''Xiao.....'' Tang Li Xue felt her eyelid grew heavier and she fell unconscious.
"Sigh... luckily her time with that Mo brat is not long so I can easily seal it all away. Littless, you will recover your memories about him after you surpass me someday and at that time, I am really sure you will thank me for it! Well, I would already be your mount if that time reallyes so you still cannot me me for it! Hehehe..." Red-Eyes Winged Lizard grinned put the sleeping Tang Li Xue on its back and it started to fly away from that forest.
After a few hours, Tang Li Xue woke up but she did not feel ufortable or anything strange but she alreadypletely forget anything about Xiao Hei even his name.
''Where we are going to now?'' Tang Li Xue asked using her gesture.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard still has a hard time understanding Tang Li Xue''s gesture but it finally understands after a long time.
"Hahaha... You don''t need to worry! I will bring you back to your ''home''! I promise you will really like it there!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard answered in delight.
Tang Li Xue stared at Red-Eyes Winged Lizard skeptically.
''Tsk... Acted so mysterious! Nah... I have nowhere to go anyway...So I guess I will take a look at where this fake dragon will take me!''
Tang Li Xue could not remember Xiao Hei while Xiao Hei thought Tang Li Xue already died in Mo Chonglin''s hand.
Their fate with each other already met its end with this but...
Clink...
The mysterious ring shining with an azure dim light on Tang Li Xue''s neck let out a faint metal sound when Tang Li Xue moved her furry head.
Chapter 93 - 93: New Adventure!
Chapter 93 - 93: New Adventure!
Noon in the middle of the green valley...
BAAAAAAM!
Tang Li Xue rolled to her right side to dodge the brown squirrel''s tail attack!
[Species: Wood Eater Squirrel]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 17]
[HP: 11,145/14,400]
''Sigh... What a troublesome opponent! If I use my me of Pride, I certainly can kill it in an instant but it would also mean I would not have anything to eat for today!''
Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride had grown out far more powerfulpared to the first time she obtained it thanks to countless [Seven Elemental Flower] it consumed before and the [Crimson Phoenix] chapter from [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art].
Unfortunately, she could not control her me of Pride properly anymore because it grew too powerful now. She felt like a little child trying to control the famous ''Red Hare'' horse.
''Sigh... Oh well... It looks like I am back to square one again. Here take my mighty w and great fang, you ugly beast!''
Tang Li Xue used her [High Jump] skill but she did not jump upward but use it to pounce toward the Wood Eater Squirrel!
But Wood Eater Squirrel had already wary of Tang Li Xue, it immediately took its defensive stance, and used its hard long tail as a shield.
Wood Eater Squirrel''s tail was harder than even steel because most of its essence and power focused on its tail just like Tang Li Xue''s ws and fangs.
Tang Li Xue forcefully bit Wood Eater Squirrel''s tail and she twisted her body on mid-air like a drill while simultaneously using her [Rip] skill to grip on its tail!
Of course, her attack was not enough to tear Wood Eater Squirrel''s tail off but she nned to use this move to throw Wood Eater Squirrel and it works really well!
BOOOOOM~~!
Wood Eater Squirrel felt very dizzy, the moment its head mmed onto the hard ground.
''Chance! Uwehehehe... I got you, baby!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she sunk her sharp fangs into Wood Eater Squirrel''s tender neck.
Wood Eater Squirrel''s blood sshed out from its neck and its HP dropped rapidly but it still did not gave up and it kept scratching Tang Li Xue using its tiny ws.
-356, -267, -412, -378, -299...
''Dammit! What a tenacious beast! [Golden Body] active!''
When Tang Li Xue activated her [Golden Body], the thin goldenyer covered her entire tiny body and her physical defense increased by 50% so the damage from Wood Eater Squirrel reduced by 25%.
(Since if her physical defense increased by 100% it means her physical defense doubled and she would only receive 1/2 physical damage so her current [Golden Body]''s effect only half from this calction).
Moreover, with [Golden Body] 30% damage reduction''s effect, Wood Eater Squirrel w attack''s damage was almost negligible now! Some of it only dealt damage below 100 and itpletely nullified by her [Golden Body].
The Wood Eater Squirrel''s resistance became weaker and weaker and it stopped moving in less than a minute after Tang Li Xue bit its neck.
Tang Li Xue greedily drank its blood then slowly savored Wood Eater Squirrel''s tender meat.

Ding!
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level achieved Rank 3 Qi Condensation Stage! All Stats +200]
''Woah... atst! Level up after one week!''
Yes... counting today, Tang Li Xue already traveled with the fake dragon for one week.
Although the fake dragon''s flying speed was very fast but their destination ce was very far away so ording to the fake dragon, they would need to travel for at least one month to get there.
"Sigh... Littless, why don''t you use your blue me to kill that little squirrel? Moreover, you took so long to defeat that weakest species even with all your powerful divine abilities! Aihhhh... such a waste of talent! Just one peek and I already knew that you are reallycking fighting experience!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard flew down after Tang Li Xue won her fight.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes in disdain. She really was toozy to care about this liar fake dragon.
It said it would be her mount after she released it before but now when they were traveling together, it did not even help her hunting for some higher level beasts or share its prey with her even one bit!
This fake dragon''s excuse was very simple. Because it wanted Tang Li Xue to gain more fighting experience and learn how to use all of her abilities in any situation better.
In their journey, this fake dragon kept repeating the same words again and again, ''cking experience'', ''cannot use her divine abilities properly'', and ''crude battle style''.
''At least say something useful to help me grow stronger other thanining non-stop like this!''
However, it was not actually Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s fault or it did not want to teach Tang Li Xue everything it knew but all beasts were like these.
All of them learned their fighting style and how to use all of their abilities ording to all their experience and their sharp instinct. That was why the two beasts from the same species did not mean they would have the same fighting style and the same abilities too let alone Red-Eyes Winged Beast and Tang Li Xue from two different species so how could it teach Tang Li Xue its fighting style!
Even though Red-Eyes Winged Lizard could not teach Tang Li Xue but with its sharp battle instinct that already honed for many years, it could easily tell what Tang Li Xuecking.
However, it was not Tang Li Xue''s fault since she was basically only born into this world for more than one month, she was not even two months old yet!
So all of Tang Li Xue''s moves in Red-Eyes Winged Lizard were so crude that it pitifullyck everything and full of holes!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not even know where it needs to start so it could only criticize everything about Tang Li Xue!
Like in her battle with Wood Eater Squirrel, she could actually use her me or that golden barrier to win easily but here she ran here and there then jump, twist, and turn before using the golden barrier in the end after she almost won the battle...
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not even know anymore where it would need to criticize because everything seems very wrong since the very start.
Tang Li Xue waved her paw to stop Red-Eyes Winged Lizard from babbling.
After traveling together with Tang Li Xue for one week, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard could easily understand all of Tang Li Xue''s simple gesture now. Of course, it only limited to her simple gesture like now.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard sighed in disappointment like a caring mother who had a useless naughty child that failed to meet her expectation.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard held Tang Li Xue''s tiny body with its w and put her on its back.
But after Red-Eyes Winged Lizard pped its wide wings for a few times to fly and continue their journey, it immediatelynded back to the ground.
''Hm? Fake Dragon, What happened to you? Are you sick or something? Want to defecate or pee-pee?'' Tang Li Xue looked at Red-Eyes Winged Lizard curiously.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard frowned and it slowly exined to Tang Li Xue: "My [Beast King Eyes] saw some suspicious humans fighting against each other... and they bring a beast egg with them! Damn thieves! How dare they steal the beast egg under this beast lord''s eyes?! Unforgivable!"
[Beast King Eyes] was one of Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s divine abilities. It could use this divine ability to peek from the vision of another beast but of course, it cannot use this divine ability to peek if that beast was too far from it.
When in Asura Demon Sect, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard usually used this [Beast King Eyes] divine ability to peek at what happened inside the Asura Demon Sect from inside its cage fortress.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes once again. After traveling together for one week, she also managed to find another Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s bad habit.
This fake dragon was actually a genuine busybody if it was something that concerns humans and beasts! However, it never paid any attention if it was only between beasts or only between humans.
"Let''s go and check! Then kill all those evil humans and return back the egg!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said with a firm tone.
Tang Li Xue waved her pawszily signaled that the fake dragon could do whatever it wants but as always, she would not do anything to help it.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard decided to not fly and only ran using its four limbs like a horse but its speed was quite fast and each of its heavy steps made the ground trembling furiously.
Only in a few seconds, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard managed to find two groups of humans fighting against each other to seize the beast egg!
"YOU ROBBERS, GIVE ME THE EGG OR DIE! FORGET IT JUST DIE FIRST THEN I WILL TAKE THE EGG FROM YOU!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard shouted out loud shocked all the humans.
Using its speed momentum, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not decrease its running speed at all and used its huge heavy solid body to smash every human on its way!
Tens of humans did not have any time to dodge and crushed to meat paste by Red-Eyes Winged Lizard steps, some of them were heavily injured after crashed with Red-Eyes Winged Lizard hard body.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard stopped running when it reached the center of human crowds. It quickly spun its gigantic hard body and used its long sharp tail to sweep away all the humans on its sight!
"Littless! Catch that egg!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard asked Tang Li Xue.
''What? Me? You... I already told you to not involve me in this, am I?!'' Tang Li Xue''s expression turned darker and she groaned in displeasure.
Chapter 94 - 94: Weird Egg? Lets Cook it!
Chapter 94 - 94: Weird Egg? Let''s Cook it!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s tail mmed hard onto the chest of the person that held the beast egg.
The person spurted out several mouthfuls of blood as all of his ribs shattered and his chest sank deeply.
The beast egg on his arm got thrown off high into the air!
''Oh... I... I got it! Leave it to me! Sigh... This reminds me of the baseball game on the hospital''s TV!''
At that time Tang Li Xue really wanted to try to y baseball so badly but her body was too sickly and weak before.
Tang Li Xue used her [Sprint] skill and started to chase in the direction where the beast egg was thrown to.
When the beast egg almost hit the rock, Tang Li Xue immediately used her [High Jump] skill to catch it but that beast egg''s size was as big as a basketball so it was a bit too big for her to hold.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Golden Body] and used her body to protect the beast egg from smashing onto the hard rock.
Her tiny body crashed onto the hard rock with a loud bang and she rolling over on the ground because of the great pain but at least she managed to catch the beast egg after so much effort.
''It hurts! That damn fake dragon! I will make sure to give it a good scoldter!''
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard would probably pretend to not understand her gestureter if it could read what Tang Li Xue''s thought right now.
Unfortunately, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not have that much time to care about what Tang Li Xue doing right now.
Among all the humans it faced now, some of them were the masters at Foundation Establishment Stage.
But even the Foundation Establishment Stage elders from Asura Demon Sect were not Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s match so how could these bunches of nobodies at Foundation Establishment Stage have any chance against it!
RRRROOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRR~~!!!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s loud roar made several Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators heavily wounded as they fell backward and spurted out several mouthfuls of blood.
The weaker ones had their body burst out like an exploded balloon and their blood sttered out everywhere.
This was also why the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard ordered Tang Li Xue to chase after the beast egg rather than stay here and watch it fight.
If it used this roar skill when Tang Li Xue was still nearby, she would probably die too because of it.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard used its giant w to easily finish the several heavily wounded Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators'' lives.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard used its ferocious nirvana mes to burn all the dead bodies into ashes.
Actually, The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard could use its Nirvana mes since the very start to massacre all the humans here but its me would probably turn the beast egg into ashes too.
Tang Li Xue brought the beast egg back to the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard took the beast egg from Tang Li Xue and carefully examined it to find where this beast egg came from and from what creatures those vile humans took it from.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard gave the beast egg back to Tang Li Xue and slowly muttered: "I don''t know..."
''Who is the one that saying it wanted to give the beast egg back to its parents?!'' Tang Li Xue kicked the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s foot in annoyance.
Of course, the idea to raise a powerful pet that can help her in battle was rather tempting but how could a random beast egg she got from these thieves or robbers be something powerful?!
Moreover, she could only barely hunted some demonic beasts every day to support herself so how could she keep a pet now. Just the thought that she needs to feed and nurture it every day already made her have a headache.
''Hum... Let''s just cook it! Making the scrambled egg from the egg as big as this... it would surely be so delicious! Shhhh... I can''t wait to taste it!''
Tang Li Xue almost drooled when she imagined a big delicious scrambled egg.
"NO!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard forcefully took the beast egg back from Tang Li Xue.
''Why the hell are you saying ''no''? I did not say anything yet, am I?'' Tang Li Xue angrily stared at the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
"What?! Your greedy stare and drool are already saying everything! NO! You can''t cook or eat it!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said stubbornly.
''Haha... Are your motherly instinct kicking in or something?! I don''t care about that stupid egg! If you want to hatch and raise it then don''t forget that you must feed it by yourself!''
Tang Li Xue pointed at the beast egg and shrugged her shoulder then she pointed at the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
"Humph! You just need to see it! I will bring this egg back to its nest by myself!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard turned its giant head away from Tang Li Xue smugly.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard used its [Beast King''s Eyes] divine ability and peek from several nearby beasts'' vision.
After circled the valley several times and wasted almost half day for nothing, Tang Li Xue finally lost her patience and decided to help Red-Eyes Winged Lizard to track the beast egg''s nest using her sharp sense of smell that already strengthened by her [Enhanced Sense of Sight] skill several times.
Tang Li Xue''s sense of smell leads the two of them to the hidden deep cave inside the valley.
"Are you really sure this beast egg came from here? I doubt it though since there is no beast feces here. Littless, you don''t lie to me to snatch the egg from me and cook it, don''t you?!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard frowned and asked Tang Li Xue skeptically.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and pointed her paw to the nest made from beast fur. It looks like the beast egg was put on this warm nest before.
"Okay Little Lass, I will trust you this time... Here, put this beast egg back there for me! This cave''s part is too narrow. I cannot enter deeper with my huge body." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard gave the beast egg to Tang Li Xue.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard knew that Tang Li Xue wouldin nonstop to it so it quickly pushed Tang Li Xue deeper into the cave before she could refuse.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in rage andined in her mind: ''Damn fake dragon! It did not want to share any meat with me but always ordering me around!''
Tang Li Xue started to miss her day in the Asura Demon Sect, there was always delicious hot roasted meat waited for her in her room before.
''Eh... strange... I remember that someone would always cook the super delicious hot roasted meat in my room three times every day for me in that sect... But who cook it for me?''
Actually, all Tang Li Xue''s memories in the Asura Demon Sect were rather blurry. She remembered that someone brought her into the Asura Demon Sect because she saved that person''s life inside the Moonlight Forest.
However, she cannot remember his name and his face no matter how hard she tried.?She thought this was the side effect from [Substitute Doll] and since she cannot remember him, that means he was not important for her anyway so she decided to ignore it.
But just now, she felt that she lost something important...
''Oh well... that chef''s roasted meat is very delicious so of course, it is important! Forget it! The past is just past after all... I just need to think about the present and what I will do in the future!''
Tang Li Xue absentminded brought the beast egg into the deepest part of the cave and put it inside its war beast fur bed but she did not realize that the beast egg started to crack bit by bit when she held it.
Ding!
[Congrattion! You got apanion pet!]
[Do you want to give it a new name? Yes/No]
Tang Li Xue: ''?!''
''WUUUUUUUUUTTTTTT?! What the hell is happening? I... I swear I did not do anything, okay?!''
Tang Li Xue was too stunned and she identally dropped the beast egg that she brought on her paws.
The beast egg''s shell shattered into tiny pieces revealed a tiny palm-sized girl inside it. The tiny girl was very cute and her body covered by leaf dress. It also has a long light-green colored hair that reached her shoulder.
When Tang Li Xue saw the cute palm-sized girl, the system showed the girl''s data status to her.
[Species: Tempest Fairy]
[Grade: Umon (Cub)]
[Type: Wind Elemental Spirit (Elf-Type)]
[Level 1]
Divine Ability: [Wind God''s Endowment]
[HP: 5,400/5,400]
Strength: 150
Agility: 200
Toughness: 100
[Skill: Flight (Lv1), Wind de (Lv1)]
[Wind God''s Endowment]: This creature is blessed by the Wind God itself made it able to learn any skills/martial arts/Divine Abilities with wind elemental easily.
Tang Li Xue dumbfounded for real this time... she dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief.
''What an OP divine ability! Almost on par with my [Mirror of Moon] but only for wind elemental!''
But different from her [Mirror of Moon] that can only copy one skill/martial art/Divine ability, with this [Wind God''s Endowment], the [Tempest Fairy] could learn as many wind elemental skills/martial arts/Divine Abilities as she wants!
The [Tempest Fairy] long eyshes fluttered slightly and she slowly opened its eyes. The color of her eyes was emerald green and she silently stared at Tang Li Xue.
Chapter 95 - 95: Good and Obedient Child, Yaya!
Chapter 95 - 95: Good and Obedient Child, Yaya!
''But I still can''t keep her! I can''t even eat until I am full every day so how could I raise her! It would be better if I give her back to her parents! By the way, where are both of her parents?! Please, take back your child now!''
While Tang Li Xue still thinking deeply, she did not notice that the tiny [Tempest Fairy] in front of her began to observe her every move.
When Tang Li Xue''s gaze wandered back to the [Tempest Fairy] their eyes met with each other and the bright smile started to bloom from [Tempest Fairy]''s extremely cute countenance.
"Yaya~~ Yayayaya~~!" The [Tempest Fairy] opened her tiny mouth and started to babble.
The [Tempest Fairy] unfurled her transparent two pairs of wings on her back and shakily fly to Tang Li Xue.
''Woah... be careful, little girl!'' Tang Li Xue tried to catch the [Tempest Fairy] with both of her paws but [Tempest Fairy] identallynded on her snout.
"Ya! Yaya~~!" The [Tempest Fairy] intimately hugged Tang Li Xue''s snout with her soft tiny hands and she also kept giggling full of happiness.
Tang Li Xue instantly captivated by the [Tempest Fairy] innocent look and pure smile. All the thought to push the [Tempest Fairy] back to her parentpletely vanished from Tang Li Xue''s mind.
''Oh, well... At least, she is not that bad... in fact, she is very cute! Hello, Little Lass! I am your master from now on! So you have to call me Queen from now on! Uwehehehe...'' Tang Li Xue imitated how the fake dragon usually talked to her.
Ding!
[Did you name yourpanion pet ''Queen''? Yes/No]
''NO! Did this system malfunctioning or something?! Since when I gave her that name?! Imagine if I forced to call her ''My Dear Queen'' every day... Urgh... Since she can only say ''Yaya'' let''s just name her ''Yaya'' then!''
Actually, Tang Li Xue was toozy to think about a good name for [Tempest Fairy].?Tang Li Xue could not even talk right now so no matter how beautiful the name [Tempest Fairy] got, Tang Li Xue still could not call [Tempest Fairy]''s name with her fox''s tongue anyway.
[Did you name yourpanion pet ''Yaya''? Yes/No]
''YES!''
[Companion pet''s true name confirmed! Initializing connection with host... Connection Bridge established!]
After Tang Li Xue received the notification from her system, she could feel an extremely close connection between Yaya and herself.
This feeling waspletely different from the master and ve''s contract. It almost more like Tang Li Xue and Yaya were the twins and they could feel each other thought.
With a single thought, Yaya could understand what Tang Li Xue''s mean and the opposite also applies, Tang Li Xue could immediately understand what Yaya''s thought.
Tang Li Xue was extremely moved and she almost cried. Yaya would be the first person... err... pet that could understand her! She did not need to use any weird gestures to converse with Yaya!
''Little Yaya, hop on my head! Let''s head outside together!''
Yaya hesitated for a bit, Tang Li Xue could feel Yaya thought that she wanted to eat her own eggshell.
Tang Li Xue put Yaya down and pushed her back toward the eggshell. Yaya happily hugged Tang Li Xue''s paw for a moment then pounced to the eggshell and ate it greedily.
''Is it really delicious? It makes me really want to taste it too...'' Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva when she saw Yaya eat.
Yaya could also understand Tang Li Xue''s thought so she immediately stopped eating and pushed the rest of eggshell to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue could felt that Yaya was still very hungry but she still decided to give the rest of eggshell to Tang Li Xue sincerely without any unwillingness.
''For... for me? Wha... What a good child! Really different from that demonic fake dragon! No, no, no... How could I eat your food?! Just eat it all! I can still hunt for more demonic beasts outsideter so you can finish it all!'' Tang Li Xue gently patted Yaya''s tiny head then puffed her own chest bravely.
Yaya was giggling happily when she received Tang Li Xue''s gentle pat. Yaya nodded to Tang Li Xue and swiftly finished her eggshell. She did not want Tang Li Xue to wait for her too long and she also wanted to help Tang Li Xue to huntter.
''This child... she wants to help me hunt for my food?! What a good child! But how could I do that?! Am I looks that greedy in your eyes?! We will divide it equally. I will take half and you can eat half.''
Tang Li Xue grabbed Yaya with both of her paws after Yaya finished eating and she put Yaya on the top of her furry head.
Yaya obediently sat on Tang Li Xue''s head and the two of them heading outside the cave together to meet back with Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard dropped its big jaw in shock the moment it saw the little green fairy on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
Tang Li Xue raised her furry chest smugly then she pointed her paw at Yaya and knocked her own furry chest with herw as if she was trying to say: ''this green fairy is one of my people from now on!''
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard stunned expression turned paler as it quickly grabbed Tang Li Xue and Yaya with her giant w then pped its wide dragon-like wings furiously.
''Why are you getting so nervous for? I am still so hungry! I want to hunt more demonic beasts!''
Tang Li Xue stared at Red-Eyes Winged Lizard full of anger and doubt.
"Littless, you are really tired of living, aren''t you?! But please don''t drag me into this! I still want to live for a few hundreds of thousand years more!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard gritted its teeth in anger too and it kept increasing its flying speed.
Tang Li Xue never saw the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard became this nervous before even when they faced against Mo Chonglin and his steel warship.
What kind of danger they are currently facing right now that it could make the creature as strong as Red-Eyes Winged Lizard be this afraid?
Tang Li Xue skeptically stared at Red-Eyes Winged Lizard and thought: ''This fake dragon bes so nervous after it sees Yaya... Is it possible because of Yaya''s species? Her parents are dangerous creatures?''
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard almost puked out a mouthful of blood in anger when it noticed Tang Li Xue''s doubtful stare and it nervouslyined: "Oh God, so this is what everyone''s mean by ''the ignorance is bliss''...?Dammit! If I know that egg is not a beast egg but an elemental spirit egg, I would not dare to touch it even if I have nine lives!"
"And you, Little Lass! I only told you to put that damn egg back into its nest and go back, aren''t I?! Why are you... Sigh... Whatever... it''s toote now! Let''s just ran as fast and far as we can for now!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard pped its wide wings faster and their surrounding scenery turned more and more blurry.
"You have a me elemental spirit so I thought you have already some basic knowledge about it. Do you know that every mature elemental spirit could wield the power of nature?! They have the strength equal to mid-rank spirit beast or even higher!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard exined to Tang Li Xue patiently.
"Your me elemental spirit is ssified as a spirit-type elemental spirit. All spirit-type elemental spirits don''t have any parents since they were born from nature itself and nurtured by the .u.mtion of spirit energy over a very long time. But that green thing on your head is different! It is an elf-type elemental spirit! IT HAS PARENTS! A PAIR OF MATURE ELEMENTAL SPIRITS with the prowess equal to mid-rank spirit beast or even higher!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard screamed in fear and horror.
"Do you know how strong the mid-rank spirit beast is? It would only need a single p to turn that fatty Mo along with his broken ship to dust! No, no, no... With this elemental spirit wind power, a single snort from it should be more than enough to flip the entire Demonic Sect upside down!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s giant body shuddered slightly.
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in disbelief and she started to grinning as the excitement started to bubble up from her heart when she imagined how powerful Yaya would be when she had grown upter.
''Fatty uncle! Enjoy your peaceful day while you can! Be sure to wash your neck properly every day because my pet will beat your fatty ass until your own old father cannot recognize you anymore when she grows upter!''
When Tang Li Xue still drowned in her own delusion...
GGGRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRR~~~!!!
An earth-shattering loud roar resounded somewhere far behind Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
They should be already several hundred miles away from the strange valley but they could still clearly hear the loud roar. It was hard to imagine what happened if they still stay inside the valley when that terrifying loud roar out.
"Aaaiiiihhh... Theye back so fast?! Sigh... Fortunately, we already ran quite far from that ce. Hold on tight, kids! I will increase my speed to maximum!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard warned Tang Li Xue and Yaya.
Tang Li Xue grabbed tightly on one of Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s w while Yaya hugged Tang Li Xue''s furry neck tightly with both of her tiny hands.
Just when Red-Eyes Winged Lizard wanted to increase its flying speed even more...
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM~~~!!!
The horrifying giant cyclone towering tall from the ground to the skypletely erased the entire valley including all the surrounding forests and rivers in one swoop!
Chapter 96 - 96: You Will Regret It!
Chapter 96 - 96: You Will Regret It!
Tang Li Xue gasped in fear and shock when she saw the vast beautiful valley turned into a giant deep hole on the deste ground. She could not even judge how deep that hole was from here.
At first, she still thought that this fake dragon was only exaggerating when it said the Yaya''s parents could flip the entire Asura Demon Sect upside down with a single snort but now she saw the real proof in front of her own eyes!
Tang Li Xue nervously took Yaya with both of her paws and put Yaya down on the fake dragon''s scaly palm.
"What are you doing? You want me to return that little thing back to its parents?" Red-Eyes The Winged Lizard puzzled and asked Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue immediately nodded anxiously and pushed the sitting Yaya with her paws closer to the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
"It is futile now! Toote! Elf-type elemental spirit would only recognize the first creature it sees as their closest kin or their parent! And they would remain hostile to the rest unless the first creature it sees told them which one is harmless! Look at how it''s staring at me!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard rolled its red eyes and exined to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue gazed at Yaya more closely and realized that she frowned while kept staring at the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard full of hostility and vexation.
Ding!
[Yaya has learned Cyclone sh!]
''Eh?! Did she learn something? Is this the skill used by her parent to tten the entire valley?'' Tang Li Xue decided to open Yaya''s status window to check her new skill.
[True Name: Yaya] >
[Species: Tempest Fairy]
[Grade: Umon (Cub)]
[Type: Wind Elemental Spirit (Elf-Type)]
[Level 7]
Divine Ability: [Wind God''s Endowment]
[HP: 6,700/6,700]
Strength: 250
Agility: 400
Toughness: 160
[Skill: Flight (Lv1), Wind de (Lv1), Cyclone sh (Lv1)]
''Woah! She really learned that skill! And... She also leveled up to level 7 after eating her own eggshell? Woah... she can also level up with eating just like me? Or... is it because she also connected with the system through me? What is this > button anyway?''
When Tang Li Xue busily checked Yaya''s status is her system window, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was shouting anxiously with trembling voice: "It really came chasing for us! It should have some way to track its own child! Finished! We are really finished this time! Wind elemental spirit has the fastest speed among all elemental spirit... it can catch up with us in the blink of an eye!"
''Whaaaat?! It can track Yaya?! Oh My God!'' Tang Li Xue also started to tremble in panic and fear.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm herself and started to think: ''Eh... Wait a minute... let''s try this > button then! Hopefully, it can cover Yaya''s track!''
Yaya''s cute tiny figure vanished into thin air the moment Tang Li Xue pressed the > button in her status window and the > button in Yaya''s status window also changed into > button now.
A half-second after Tang Li Xue pushed the > button, a beautiful woman dressed in the green leaf dress with four pairs of gorgeous crystal-like wings on her back floating silently in front of the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard and Tang Li Xue.
Unlike Yaya, this [Tempest Fairy Queen] have an average human size at 180 cm tall. Her jade skin, stunning face, and ss hour figure was so perfect that she could make any men drool in her beauty.
Her cold emerald green eyes were staring at where Tang Li Xue sat with an expressionless face as if she was searching for something.
Tang Li Xue was dumbfounded and she reflexively stared back at the green-haired beautiful woman.
[Species: Tempest Fairy Queen]
[Grade: ??????]
[Level: ???]
[HP: ???????/???????]
''Oh My God... just how many questions marks in her status?! I can only see her species!''
Even the usual majestic and overbearing Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not dare to stare at this horribly strong elemental spirit in front of it and could only lower its giant head in servile. It did not even dare to open its mouth to ask.
The Tempest Fairy Queen frowned when she could not find her child here and even her child''s presence waspletely gone now.
The Tempest Fairy Queen could not pinpoint her child''s whereabouts so precisely, she could only feel her child''s presenceing from this direction before.
After the Tempest Fairy Queen circled around the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s giant body for a few times, she quickly went away and kept heading to the direction in front of Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
With her unimaginable speed, not even Red-Eyes Winged Lizard and Tang Li Xue could see her movement, it was as if she teleported away from where she was floating before.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard started to breathe heavily after it saw the Tempest Fairy Queen was already gone.
Tang Li Xue also sighed in relief but she still did not dare to summon Yaya out.
"Littless, I don''t know what you do to hide that thing but please, you must tell me first if you have something like that next time! My heart almost cannot take it! I truly feel like my heart could jump out from my mouth at any moment when that terrifying being floating in front of me!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard exined with a trembling voice as it flew shakily.
It looks like Red-Eyes Winged Lizard still traumatized because of it.
"Littless, I really don''t care about that little thing you brought! That thing is almost killed us! I don''t want to touch or get closer to that thing! So if you want to take care of it then you must raise it on your own! I don''t want to know what it needs! You must feed and nurture it on your own!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard scolded Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue pouted as she puffed her cheek.
''You never gave me any food before except ck tiger after we escape from the fatty uncle! Ok, fine! I will raise Yaya by myself! Who needs azy fake dragon as you?!'' Tang Li Xue waved her paw to Red-Eyes Winged with a smug expression stered on her face.
"Hehehe... I am very sure that soon you will regret it!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard sneered evilly at the smug Tang Li Xue.
.....
...
.
After taking a detour for a few days to avoid the Tempest Fairy Queen, Tang Li Xue could finally summon Yaya out in the unknown forest.
''Ok, mypanion sister, Yaya! The first lesson you must learn is how to hunt! You already level 7 and have 2 offense skills now so it should be enough for you to hunt your own food! Go now and find two demonic beasts for you and me!'' Tang Li Xue put a solemn expression and ordered Yaya.
"Yaya~~!" Yaya nodded her tiny head cutely while bumped her little fist on her t chest as if saying ''leave it to me''.
Yaya was flying higher to find her target. After turned her green-haired head a few times, she finally started to head toward the deeper part inside the forest.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and silently followed Yaya from behind.
[Gale Wolf]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 23]
[HP: 21,600/21,600]
''Urgh... level 23 Gale Wolf... It''s pretty strong! Yaya is only at level 7! Sigh... It looks like I must get closer to Yaya so I can protect her at the critical moment...''?Tang Li Xue stood behind Yaya but with her [Ethereal Form], not even Yaya or the Gale Wolf could notice her presence.
Gale Wolf dashed to Yaya with amazing speed and pounced toward her but Yaya dodged it easily while she waved her tiny palm.
[Yaya has learned Gale Step!]
The sharp [Wind de] shot out and sliced one of Gale Wolf''s feet.
When Gale Wolfnded back on the ground, it opened its sharp jaw and shot something to Yaya.
[Yaya has learned Air Bullet!]
Yaya immediately used her own [Air Bullet] to counter Gale Wolf''s attack and they canceled each other.
However, when Gale Wolf wanted to continue its attacks, Yaya''s tiny figure vanished from its sight at an instant.
Yaya used her own [Gale Step] and flew toward Gale Wolf''s neck with the lighting speed!
Yaya used the skill she learned from the Tempest Fairy Queen before, the [Cyclone sh]! She aimed her tiny palm at the Gale Wolf''s neck!
Like a sharp de cut the soft tofu, Yaya''s [Cyclone sh] easily sliced at Gale Wolf''s neck.
The Gale Wolf''s body dropped lifelessly to the ground as its head flew away from its neck.
Yaya expressionlessly stared at the Gale Wolf''s dead body, there was no joy or excitement reflected from her eyes at all.
While the invisible Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief from behind.
''St...Strong! She is super duper strong! Is she really only at level 7?! She finished that level 23 Gale Wolf in only a few seconds! The heck... she only used 3 attacks to y that level 23 Gale Wolf!''
Tang Li Xue started to think if she was the one facing the Gale Wolf, could she really y it as easily as Yaya?
''NO... NO... NO! How can I lose my confidence this easily?! If I used my me of Pride, I can kill that Gale Wolf in one single attack!'' Tang Li Xue shook her furry head and regained her confidence.
When Tang Li Xue was still in her deep thinking mode, several Gale Wolves started to dash out from the deep forest and surrounded Yaya.
Three... Six... Ten... Fifteen... Neen of them!
After all, Wolf always hunting in the pack and never alone. The one Yaya defeated was only the scout to find their prey.
Even Tang Li Xue''s expression started to turn solemn when she saw neen Gale Wolves surrounded her and Yaya.
Chapter 97 - 97: Divine Possession!
Chapter 97 - 97: Divine Possession!
Tang Li Xue turned off her [Ethereal Form] and her tiny furry figure instantly appeared in front of Yaya.
Yaya''s expressionless face immediately brightened as a beautiful smile bloomed from her cute tiny face. She charged to Tang Li Xue and happily hugged Tang Li Xue''s furry neck while giggling loudly with her mesmerizing voice.
Tang Li Xue smiled back while waved her paw to order Yaya to stay behind her.
Tang Li Xue patted her furry chest with her paw and told Yaya to leave everything to her.
Yaya still hesitated to release her hug but she still obediently followed what Tang Li Xue told her to do.
BWOOOOOOSH~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes color turned into dark blue and fiery deep-blue me shed from the deepest part of her eyes. The extremely hot deep-blue mes started to bloom and covered her entire body.
''It such a waste if I turn all of their meat into nothingness with my me of Pride¡ Okay, then I will only use [Fire Arrow] to kill them!'' Tang Li Xue nodded to herself when she decided how to kill all of Gale Wolves in front of her.
More than ten Gale Wolves howled out loud and started to charge toward Tang Li Xue at the same time!
The rest nine Gale Wolves targeted Yaya but since Yaya was flying with her transparent wings and they cannot reach her so they decided to use their [Air Bullet] to Yaya!
Tang Li Xue was shooting nine of her [Fire Arrow] to the ten Gale Wolves'' direction but they swiftly disperse to dodge Tang Li Xue''s attacks.
''Dammit! They are really fast! Should I use my [Fire Bomb] to kill them all at once? NO! I can still handle this! If they get closer I am really sure that I can hit them!''
But the Gale Wolves did something unexpected to Tang Li Xue.
Rather than get close to her, the Gale Wolves kept their distance from Tang Li Xue and started to shower Tang Li Xue with their [Air Bullet].
Tang Li Xue immediately activated her [Golden Body] before the [Air Bullet] could hit her so the [Air Bullet] could only deal negligible damage to her.
Tang Li Xue take a quick peek at Yaya''s condition and she found out that Yaya managed to kill another three Gale Wolves but Yaya was extremely exhausted and her face already turned pale right now.
Yaya was still very starving and now she forced to fight against several Gale Wolves at once so it was reasonable if she was exhausted so quickly.
Yaya also nced at Tang Li Xue full of worry but she quickly frowned in displeasure when she felt the presence of another elemental spirit from inside Tang Li Xue''s body.
Yaya puffed her cheek in anger and flying toward Tang Li Xue with her full speed.
''Yaya! What are you...'' Tang Li Xue was too shocked by Yaya''s sudden move but it was toote for Tang Li Xue to dodge it.
Tang Li Xue thought that Yaya''s tiny body was going to crash with her furry head so she gritted her teeth and closed her eyes.
All the Gale Wolves also confused with what happened in front of them but they would not let this chance to kill their foes slip away so all of them immediately pounced toward Tang Li Xue and Yaya at the same time.
The Gale Wolves nned to use this chance to shred Tang Li Xue and Yaya to pieces after they crashed against each other.
However, something unexpected happened between Tang Li Xue and Yaya!
Rather than crashing against each other, Yaya''s tiny body entered Tang Li Xue''s forehead.
The scene between Yaya and Tang Li Xue was so magical! It was as if Yaya entered Tang Li Xue''s reflection in the water.
Tang Li Xue felt weird that she did not feel any pain or any force from their collision yet so she slowly opened her eyes.
FWOOOOOOSH~~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s left eye was still the burning deep-blue color like before the same with her me of Pride''s color.
But her right eye color changed into emerald green now!
The two pairs of transparent wings sprouted from Tang Li Xue''s back.
BAAAAAAANG~!!!
All the Gale Wolves that pouching toward Tang Li Xue flew a few meters backward and crashed hard onto the ground when they collided onto the wind barrier swirling around Tang Li Xue''s figure.
Tang Li Xue was extremely puzzled with what happened to her too and she could feel Yaya''s presence inside her body now.
The gentle wind power and the overbearing me power both reside inside her body right now.
Although, Tang Li Xue faintly felt that these two elemental spirits in her body were hostile toward each other, but their fire and wind elements could be blended perfectly in harmony just like Yin and Yang.
Fire and Wind support each other and strengthen themselves. Thebination between the two them was not like ten plus ten equal to twenty but more like ten times ten, it was equal to one hundred!
''Wh... What the hell is happening with me?!'' Tang Li Xue roared in disbelief in her mind but her body was overflowing with the massive amount of strength right now that she almost felt like in dream right now.
Ding!
[Divine Possession has been initialized by Yaya!]
[Divine Possession duration: 00:02:54]
''Divine... Possession?! Woah! New ability?'' Tang Li Xue''s eyes brightened up when she saw the system''s notification.
Tang Li Xue could clearly feel the close connection between her and the entire air on her surroundings.
She could easily felt any slightest move from the air vibration. From the movement of every ant or mosquito even the movement when the leaf fell from its branch, she can felt it all!
In short, Tang Li Xue felt extremely amazing right now!
She could detect anything within several miles away from her even without using any of her senses!
Her brain could also think three times faster than usual made her easier to analyze her enemies'' weaknesses and make the right decision in the split second while locked in the middle of a fierce battle.
But before Tang Li Xue could savor this amazing sensation, all the Gale Wolves growled angrily to Tang Li Xue and they opened all of their jaws then started to shot all of their [Air Bullet] to Tang Li Xue.
''This?! Sl... Slow! So slow! Errr... or I am the one that getting faster?'' Tang Li Xue watched calmly as all [Air Bullet] from the Gale Wolves fly slower than the snail pace toward her.
Tang Li Xue pped her transparent wings and her tiny silver figure vanished in an instant and all of the [Air Bullet] hit nothing in the end.
Tang Li Xue could clearly felt the wind and air on her surrounding was no longer obstructed her movement. On the contrary, they deliberately support her every movement enabled her to move more freely and unrestrained.
Tang Li Xue silently appeared behind several Gale Wolves and slowly waved her tiny paws down.
[Wind de]!
Nine [Wind des] swung down like guillotine des split the nine Gale Wolves bodies in two, it even leaving nine deep creases on the ground!
Even Tang Li Xue found it hard to believe that she was the one who did it right now!
''P... Powerful! I understand now! This Divine Possession means I have Yaya''s every ability and all of her stats alsobine with my own stats making me stronger and faster than usual!''
While Tang Li Xue was still thinking about her Divine Possession ability effect, the rest of Gale Wolves was shuddering in fright. They slowly stepped back then turned their bodies to run away from Tang Li Xue.
How could Tang Li Xue with her current sharp sense to feel her surrounding air did not realize what the Gale Wolves wanted to do?
''Hmmm... I always wanted to try learning this skill using [Mirror of Moon] before when I saw Yaya''s parent used it to destroy the entire valley! Unfortunately, I miss it before and I don''t dare to ask Yaya''s parent to demonstrate it once more for me to see. But it''s okay since Yaya already learned it so let''s see its power when I use it in this Divine Possession''s form!''
Tang Li Xue grinned mischievously as she waved her paw down to where the rest of Gale Wolves escaped to.
[Cyclone sh]!
When Yaya'' used her [Cyclone sh] before, she could only create a cyclone de as big as an a.d.u.l.t''s arm.
But now when Tang Li Xue used this [Cyclone sh], she managed to create a cyclone de as big as a tree!
BWOOOOOOOSH~~!!!
The sharp cyclone de as tall as a tree was flying forward to where all the Gale Wolves run while sucked everything nearby it. The cyclone sh was actuallyposed of countless wind des so anything it sucked was no different from entering a giant blender machine full of sharp des.
The ten remaining Gale Wolves was powerless like the group of chick, they easily sucked into the tall cyclone de and turned into mincemeat in an instant.
''What an overpowered skill! But its current power is still far toockingpared to Yaya''s parent. Oh well... I am pretty sure it would be stronger in the future as long as Yaya continues to grow.'' Tang Li Xue gasped in surprise and quickly nodded in satisfaction.
Tang Li Xue managed to y all the Gale Wolves in less than a minute so she has plenty of time to try her and Yaya''s new ability.
She even tried tobine her wind skill with her me skill and the result was really wonderful. Not only the skill have wind sharp and fast characteristic but also her me burning characteristic.
Tang Li Xue called her new skills: [zing Wind de] and [Scorching Cyclone sh].
After Divine Possession''s three minutes duration was up, Tang Li Xue and Yaya separated from each other like usual.
The bacsh of this Divine Possession was even more severe than what Tang Li Xue''s imagined it to be.
She and Yaya werepletely paralyzed in exhaustion for more than an hour. Forget about moving their dead tired body, both of them even have a hard time to breathe.
Fortunately, the usual careless Red-Eyes Winged Lizard still has a tiny bit of kindness in its tiny heart so it protect Tang Li Xue and Yaya when they werepletely defenseless.
"Not bad, littless! You sessfully do Divine Possession in your first try!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard nodded its giant head and staring at Tang Li Xue in amazement.
Tang Li Xue stared back at the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard quizzically.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard knew what Tang Li Xue wanted to ask from her re so it immediately exined: "If the spirit-type elemental spirit can assimte with other species then the elf-type elemental spirit can possess the other species that have the closest bond to it. We called this process, Divine Possession. Each of them has its own pros and cons."
Chapter 98 - 98: Another Glutton!
Chapter 98 - 98: Another Glutton!
"That little thing can sessfully perform Divine Possession to you because the two of you fully trusted each other. Your current bonds are extremely deep if not with only a tiny bit of rejection from one of you, the Divine Possession would certainly fail and the bacsh the two of you received would be even more devastating than now!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard patiently exined.
Tang Li Xue nodded absentmindedly when she heard the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard exnation.
She did not need to be afraid that Divine Possession between Yaya and her failed because their bonds were forged by her system.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya could perfectly understand each other without any need to say anything.
Of course, Yaya''s action when she was charging toward Tang Li Xue without any exnation so suddenly before was an exception since Yaya did it because of her jealousy with her me of Pride.
''Sigh... Fortunately, Divine Possession that time is sessful!'' Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
After resting for two hours, Tang Li Xue and Yaya finally could move their body.
Yaya collected all the Gale Wolves'' bodies and gave it all to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s heart touched once again, she knew that Yaya was very starving right now but Yaya still prioritized Tang Li Xue over herself and she even pushed all of Gale Wolves to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue petted Yaya''s tiny head with her paw and told Yaya to eat as many as she like since there were so many Gale Wolves'' meat in front of them anyway and Tang Li Xue alone would not be able to finish all of those by herself.
However, after half an hour, Tang Li Xue realized that she looked down on Yaya too much and why Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said that she would regret it.
Tang Li Xue only managed to ate one Gale Wolf while Yaya already finished the rest eighteen Gale Wolves by herself!
Tang Li Xue dumbfounded and kept staring at Yaya full of disbelief.
''Where the hell is her tiny body storing that much meat?! Is there a big pocket dimension in her stomach or something?!''
"Pfffft... Bwahahahaha! Now you know it, right?! This is another difference between the spirit-type and the elf-type elemental spirit!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was rolling on the ground whileughing out loud and pointed its index w to Tang Li Xue as if it was mocking her.
"The spirit-type elemental spirit would gradually get stronger with its master if it kept nurtured by its master Qi or vital energy every day. Of course, you can also feed it with something precious to make it stronger faster." Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said while taking Tang Li Xue and Yaya with its giant ws then spread its wide wings.
Since all of them already ate until they were full, so it was time for them to continue their journey.
"But the elf-type elemental spirit is different. You need to feed it daily for it to grow stronger and it eats A LOT! So you must hunt a lot of food for it every day to feed it! Of course,pared to the spirit-type, the elf-type elemental spirit could grow stronger at a much faster pace than the former! You can see your little thing as an example... can you feel it that it got a bit stronger than before she eats?" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard calmly exined while kept flying then pointed at Yaya with its chin in the end.
Tang Li Xue took a peek at Yaya''s status and just like what Red-Eyes Winged has said, Yaya already reached level 10.
''So fast! Oh no... It would be not good if she got stronger than me! My pride as her master would be tarnished if it really happens!''
For the first time, Tang Li Xue finally felt a sense of urgency to get stronger faster!
She already has a huge Crystal Moon Gem as one of the requirements to evolve into [Royal Moon Fox] but she also needs to take moonlight bath for 99 days!
But she only took moonlight bath for more than thirty days, so she needs two more months before she could evolve into [Royal Moon Fox].
''Two months is too long! Are there some ways for me to speed up the process?''
Tang Li Xue was pondering for a while but she decided to give up for new in the end.
She already tried to ask Red-Eyes Winged Lizard before about this and even it also dumbfounded when it found out that Tang Li Xue just need to take moonlight bath for a few months to evolve.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard never heard any species that need to take moonlight bath to evolve.
Tang Li Xue thought: ''It looks like I can only search for some ways after I arrived at the ''home of all foxes'' this fake dragon told me about. Hopefully, I can find some useful information there since it must have records of all kinds of foxes.''
Moreover, her system was getting more and more pickytely. She already tried to trigger a quest before she was facing all of those Gale Wolves but her system did not give her any response or notification in the end.
It was clear that her system judged that all of those Gale Wolves were unworthy as her opponents with her current strength and high stats but she still had a hard time dealing with them all.
''Sigh... I never even fight in my previous world and I wasted more than half of my life in the hospital with my sickly life. Then I was only born into this world for less than two months so it is natural that I still cannot fight properly, right?! What did you expect me to be?! I am not a super-assassin or S-ranked hunter in my previous life!''
Tang Li Xue decided to train her fighting skill harder and find a fighting style that suits her styleter when she arrived at the Foxes Home.
She already observed how the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard fought but she cannot use it as her reference since it fought like a mix between rhinoceros, bull, and lizard.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard always made use of its imprable defense as its weapon. It did not suit Tang Li Xue at all!
She also must learn some martial art techniquester since she already reached Qi Condensation Stage and she already condensed her own Qi in her Dantian.
She could begin to train some martial art techniques as soon as possible but unfortunately, she did not have any [Cultivation Voucher] left right now so she could only hope to find some martial art manual in that Foxes Hometer.
Tang Li Xue nced Yaya and finds that Yaya was already fell asleep beside her so she decided to take a look at her own current status.

Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction when she saw the massive growth in her overall stats.
She also decided to upgrade several of her skills since it already reach mastered level.
[Sprint skill already reached Mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Blink with cost 10 Skill Points?]
''Hmm... The speed boost I get from Sprint skill is already not bad but it drains my stamina faster when I used it. After I upgrade it to Blink, it would surely drain my stamina even more rapidly! I must use it more carefully in the future... Yes!''
[Sprint ability upgraded to Blink ability!]
Tang Li Xue''s dash ability in her status window disappeared and changed into [Blink (Lv1)].
When Tang Li Xue saw several of her enhanced sense abilities already reached mastery too, she started to recall the sensation where she could felt anything around her so perfectly when she was in her Divine Possession mode with Yaya.
She also began to consider whether she must upgrade all of her enhanced sense abilities to reach the same effect as that time.
''Eh... Enhanced sense of hearing, smell, and sight... What if I buy enhanced sense of touch and taste too? Could all of itbine into a powerful divine ability like my [Ethereal Form]? Let''s try it!''
Tang Li Xue opened her skill list window and bought the rest of enhanced sense skills.
[You have gained Enhanced Sense of Touch ability!]
[You have gained Enhanced Sense of Taste ability!]
Ding!
[Enhanced Sense of Hearing (Mastered), Enhanced Sense of Smell (Mastered), Enhanced Sense of Sight (Mastered), Enhanced Sense of Touch (Lv1), and Enhanced Sense of Taste (Lv1) can bebined into Divine Ability [Five Senses Enhancement] with cost 35 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''Woah! It these five enhancement abilities can really bebined into a divine ability! 35 Skill Points... It''s quite expensive! And... [Five Senses Enhancement] don''t sound so impressive at all... Humm... Should Ibine all five into one or not?''
Chapter 99 - 99: Bi Fang!
Chapter 99 - 99: Bi Fang!
After thinking for a while, Tang Li Xue decided tobine these five senses enhancementter so she could lower the Skill Point cost even more.
''It would be better if I upgrade the other three senses enhancement since it already reached mastered level while waiting for these enhanced senses of touch and taste to level up and reach mastered level then I willbine them all into one. It would certainly save me a lot of Skill Pointster.''
Tang Li Xue used nine of her Skill Points to upgrade [Enhanced Sense of Hearing], [Enhanced Sense of Smell], and [Enhanced Sense of Sight].
[Enhanced Sense of Hearing upgraded to Advance Sense of Hearing ability!]
[Enhanced Sense of Smell upgraded to Advance Sense of Smell ability!]
[Enhanced Sense of Sight upgraded to Advance Sense of Sight ability!]
Tang Li Xue could felt it that three of her senses were not only getting more sharper but also stronger.
Even the terrifying scream from Mandrake could no longer hurt her sharp ears now!
As for her current items and package, she decided not to touch them for now.
Tang Li Xue already learned her lesson from the previous time when she used all of her [Silver Lottery Ticket]. She was very disappointed when she got two [Substitute Doll] but it saved her life in the end and it even helped her to finish her quest.
She intended to open it all of her items, package, and tickets in one go when she used her [Greater Lucky Sticker]ter before she evolves.
''Wait a minute... I have three [Substitute Doll] in total and I only used two of them, right?! Where is thest one?! Why I only remember that I used it to help me finish my quest?''
Tang Li Xue opened the quest backlog in her system window to check herst quest out of curiosity.
[Quest: (Sacrifice) Do whatever it takes to save your male concubine out of the danger!]
[Difficulty: Nightmare]
[Requirement: High Lucky Stat! May God always bless you!]
[Reward: Level +4(+1), Stat Point +120(+30), Skill Point +24(+6), 200(+50) Deity Coins, 1XSilver Lottery Ticket, 3X2 Times EXP Card, 1XPremium Armor Chest]
''Save... my MALE CONCUBINE?! WHO THE HELL IS THAT?!''
Tang Li Xue tried to recall who was her male concubine but she really cannot remember anything about it. She also faintly recall that she used herst [Substitute Doll] to save someone from the fatty uncle but cannot remember who he/she was.
''Oh, well... let''s forget it for now since I cannot remember it anyway. This is all for now I guess... I don''t want to waste any of my precious Skill Points for upgrading something unimportant like [Night Vision] or [Herbalism]. Hmm... Wait a minute, my [Shared EXP] also reached the Mastered level! Let''s try to upgrade it!''
[Shared EXP skill already reached Mastered. Do you want to upgrade it EXP Augmentation to with cost 30 Skill Points?]
''30 Skill Points?! IT''S REALLY EXPENSIVE! Almost the same as that five senses enhancementbination cost! Sigh... should I ept it or not? But EXP Augmentation means I will get more EXP, right? Urgh... I really can''t resist this temptation... Here goes nothing! YES!''
[Shared EXP upgraded to EXP Augmentation ability!]
Tang Li Xue swiftly opened the [EXP Augmentation]''s window to check the percentage of EXP distribution.
[EXP Augmentation Status:]
[Level: - %]
[Cultivation: 100%]
[Martial Soul: 50%]
Tang Li Xue: ''?!''
''Pffft... The total EXP I will get from now on is 150%?! Jackpot! I... I win my bet! Hehehehe... BWAHAHAHA~~!!!''
Tang Li Xue was grinning happily tried very hard to stifle herughter since Yaya still sleepfortably beside her and she did not want to wake Yaya up.
Tang Li Xue tried to put all of her EXP percentages to cultivation but she failed to do so.
It looks like the maximum EXP she could get was only 100% but she can put the excessive 50% to another part for example like now when she put 100% EXP to her cultivation and the excessive 50% EXP to her Martial Soul.
Tang Li Xue did not disappointed with her current [EXP Augmentation] skill at all since she could put 100% EXP she get to her level and the excessive 50% EXP to her cultivationter after she evolve so she could get stronger faster!
''Urgh... but my current Skill Points shrunk to 117 now... sigh... I hope I can trigger some questster so I can .u.mte more Skill Points. Okay, it''s time for me to sleep too! Good night, Yaya!''
Tang Li Xue kissed the sleeping Yaya''s forehead gently and went to sleep too beside her.
It was already their everyday habit that the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard would keep flying at night while Tang Li Xue and Yaya fell asleep in its grasp.
But the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard would take a nap when Tang Li Xue and Yaya hunted their prey in the morning.
As the strong [Rare] grade, the peak of demonic beast, Red-Eyes Winged Lizard actually did not need to sleep or eating that much anymore. However, it still needs to hunting and eating some strong demonic beasts every day to restore its long drying vital energy if it met with some strong demonic beasts in their way.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s vital energy already sucked by the mysterious ck chain for too long so it would need quite a long period of time topletely recover from its current condition.
....
...
.
They already continue their journey for almost two weeks but it was quite an uneventful week since they were not facing anything difficult in these two weeks.
Their new tiny glutton, Yaya ate so much preys every day that she managed to reach level 16 in these two weeks even though she finds it harder and harder to level up after that but at least she still leveling up faster than Tang Li Xue.
Yaya even managed to learn 2 new skills: [Wind Barrier] and [Gale Prison].
[Wind Barrier] were the skill used to parry any attacks targeting her for a certain amount of duration.
While [Gale Prison] was the skill used to restrain her enemy within a short period of time.
These two skills were extremely useful and made Yaya''s attacks pattern became even more unpredictable.
Yaya always thought that she needs to get stronger faster so she could help Tang Li Xue hunt for her prey.
Yaya wanted topletely spoil Tang Li Xue.
In Yaya''s mind, Tang Li Xue did not need to do anything.
Yaya would do anything for Tang Li Xue.
Everything Tang Li Xue wanted, she would only need to say it to Yaya and Yaya would do it for her.
Little did Yaya know that her rapid growth aroused Tang Li Xue''s sense of urgency!
This is very bad... If this continues, Yaya would grow stronger than me. I am weaker than my own pet? Me? The Future Queen and the Deity Candidate with OP system weaker than my own pet? NO WAY! I MUST GET STRONGER FASTER!''
With her extra hard work, Tang Li Xue managed to increase her cultivation level to Rank 4 Qi Condensation Stage.
But that was not all, Tang Li Xue''s martial soul, the [Flying Golden Fish] finally reached its maximum level capacity, level 11!
So after Tang Li Xue evolved into [Umon] grade demonic beastter, her martial soul could also immediately evolve into [Umon] grade martial soul!
The [Flying Golden Fish] also got one new passive skill called [Haste].
[Haste]: Increase user overall speed by 10%. (The effect would increase along with the martial soul''s level)
Tang Li Xue really liked this [Haste] buff very much. It increased her movement speed, attack speed, and reaction speed by 10%!
Unfortunately, their peaceful day this noon was destined to be broken because of the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s bad habit like usual.
Tang Li Xue''s group saw a big firebird that was currently facing against the human armies.
''Woah! What kind of beast is that? Phoenix? Luan?'' Tang Li Xue watched the big firebird full of curiosity.
But she immediately denied it since Phoenix should look much more noble and brilliant.
''It also did not look like a Luan.'' Tang Li Xue judged.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue could not see the big fire bird''s status since she was too far away from where they fight.
Yaya also started to mimic Tang Li Xue and watched the fierce battle full of curiosity with her emerald green eyes while still sitting on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
"That is Bi Fang. Its rank in demonic beast world is almost as high as mine but it already heavily injured and exhausted after fighting with another beast. That is why those impertinent humans dare to fight against it. Those cowardly humans would never fight with that Bi Fang if it still in its best condition! I hate those scheming humans very much! Let''s go and help that Bi Fang!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard exined patiently and dered that it would help that firebird in the end.
Tang Li Xue could only roll her eyes when she saw that the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s back habit kicked in again like usual.
She did not want to see that many human armies got ughtered but it was impossible for her to stop Red-Eyes Winged Lizard after it decided to do something.
In fact, Tang Li Xue already tried to stop Red-Eyes Winged Lizard from killing humans before but it did not want to hear Tang Li Xue''s plea and even mocking her as a coward, cold-blooded beast, upassionate beast, or whatever it was.
So Tang Li Xue decided to stop caring what Red-Eyes Winged Lizard trying to do and let it do whatever it wants after that. She did not have enough strength to force it to stop anyway.
There were more than ten battalions of human armies that fought fiercely against the big firebird using some kind of mysterious formations.
Although the human''s armies cultivation level was not that high, most of them only at Qi Condensation Stage, and some of them only reached Acupuncture Opening Stage but their formation was so formidable! They managed to repel all the big fire bird''s attacks using it!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~~~!!!
The giant blue pir of light hit the big fire bird''s body and blow it backward several tens of meters away.
Tang Li Xue observed where that giant blue pir of light came from and found that it actually shot out by a cannon.
''That cannon feels familiar... Eh... Eeeehhhhhh... That cannon actually identical with the one Mo Chonglin equipped in his steel warship and he used that to shot at us before!''
But the firepower of that giant blue pir of light from that armies'' cannon was far toockingpared with Mo Chonglin''s cannon in his steel warship if not, that Bi Fang would surely be destroyed in one single shot!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was not a fool. It would not barge like ate hero only to get sted by that cannon too in the end like that Bi Fang.
Although, that giant blue pir of light would not be able to hurt Red-Eyes Winged Lizard with its thick scales but it did not want to lose its prestige in front of Tang Li Xue and Yaya.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard decided to carefully analyze the human''s formation so it could find the loophole and destroy all the human armies along with its formation in one move!
Chapter 100 - 100: Breaking the Formation!
Chapter 100 - 100: Breaking the Formation!
While Red-Eyes Winged Lizard sneakily flying around while observing the battle between human armies and Bi Fang, Tang Li Xue also kept watching on how Bi Fang fight in awe.
Bi Fang was a kind of firebird with one leg and a crane-like body. It had crimson feathers but some of them were gold. Wherever it appeared, a disastrous ze would follow.
There was crimson-colored me covered its entire body. Its aura when it dived or soared was truly fierce. It was as if this Bi Fang always carrying the power of the entire volcano with it.
Although that Bi Fang was already heavily injured and exhausted but all of those soldiers did not have it easy either. Their faces had been dripping with beads of sweat and their breaths also getting heavier. It was clear they felt overwhelming pressure when facing against Bi Fang.
However, those soldiers were also not bad in Tang Li Xue''s eyes.
Under such overwhelming pressure, normal people would already fainted or run around in panic, but these soldiers could still keep their calm and endure it with their barely sufficient strength.
Each battalion consist of one thousand soldiers, there were more than ten battalions so there were more than ten thousand soldiers fighting against that Bi Fang.
Moreover, they moved so neatly in order to form their defensive formations, the timing of their cannon attack was also perfect and urate.
Tang Li Xue could not imagine how long their leader would need to train these ten thousand elite soldiers until they reached this level.
"That reckless bird is really crazy... It still tries to attack those human armies again even in its current condition." Red-Eyes Winged Lizard murmured with a bit of admiration mixed in its hoarse voice.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya also curiously watched how Bi Fang tried to counterattack.
The Bi Fang was currently diving down to the center of the human armies'' formation. Although the area was not that big, but it still enough for the ten thousand soldiers to hold their ground.
BOOOOOOOM~~!!!
Bi Fang''s huge body crashed with the human armies'' formation creating the violent ripple on the air, there was a thin transparent barrier covered the entire human armies, protecting them from any harm caused by Bi Fang.
Bi Fang pped its fire wings to stabilize itself on the air then it opened its beak to breathe our crimson fire.
BWOOOOOSSSH~~!!!
The crimson me pir had instantly stretched out hundreds of meters in distance and instantlynded on the armies'' transparent barrier.
The earth-shaking sound echoed as the ground shook violently.
''Woah! So powerful! I wonder which one is more powerful, that Bi Fang''s crimson mes or this fake dragon''s golden mes?''
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard could read Tang Li Xue thought when she looked back and forth between it and Bi Fang so it calmly exining: " There is no such thing as weaker kind of me or stronger kind of me. Each kind of me has its own advantage."
"You always think your blue me is stronger than the usual me, right? Then can use it to cook?" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard asked Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue shook her head. She already tried it many times and no matter how she tried it, she really cannot use her me of Pride to cook since everything it touches would turn into nothingness.
"That''s right. Usual me can be used to cook food or boil water. Your blue me has an extremely high temperature that can turn anything it touches into nothingness." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard pointed its w at Tang Li Xue.
"My Nirvana me has incredible destructive force that can destroy anything it attacked. That Bi Fang''s crimson me has incredible pressure contained in it that can crush everything it touches to pieces." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard pointed its w at itself and Bi Fang while kept exining.
"Every me has its own characteristic and purpose! Not only mes but everything that exists in this world has its own worth and advantage. There is nothing in this world that ispletely useless. So you must not... no, you must never think that you are better than everyone else even if you be far strongerter, understand?!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard ended its lecture while staring at Tang Li Xue.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard knew that with Tang Li Xue''s growth rate and Yaya by her side, she would surely be someone that stood at the top food chain in this Immortal World sooner orter so it could only give its stern important advice now while she was still weaker than it.
Tang Li Xue nodded seriously when she heard what Red-Eyes Winged Lizard told her while Yaya frowned and kept staring angrily at the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard in displeasure. Yaya really did not like it when this fake dragon spoke impolitely to Tang Li Xue.
"Ok, it''s good if you understand. Hold on tight now, kids! I already find their current formation weak point! Let''s finish this quickly and continue our journey, we are not that far from your home!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard pped its wide wings and its speed increased rapidly.
After a short amount of time, the battle resumed. The armies'' Spirit Cannon glowed with blue radiance again and shot toward the Bi Fang.
The Bi Fang did not try to dodge likest time since it knew how fast the blue pir of light was right now.
Bi Fang immediately opened its beak once more and fired another column of crimson me, its me attack collided violently with the blue pir of light from the Spirit Cannon.
Bi Fang''s column of crimson me managed to neutralize the blue beam from the Spirit Cannon and some tiny part of its crimson me also passed the hole in the defense formation after the Spirit Cannon''s attack then set aze several unfortunate soldiers.
There was no doubt that these unfortunate soldiers had been killed by Bi Fang''s crimson me almost instantly.
The armies'' leader swiftly ordered several soldiers to move and cover the hole in their defensive formation.
Unfortunately, they were a bitte to do that since the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard forcefully breached their defense formation through that hole with its unimaginable flying speed.
Tang Li Xue quickly pressed > button in Yaya''s status window and Yaya instantly vanished from the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
Tang Li Xue did not want Yaya to see the cruel massacre scene that would happen in front of their eyes so she stored Yaya back into her system.
"DIE, FILTHY HUMANS!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard spoke with its hoarse voice.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard opened its jaw and the terrifying golden mes sprayed out nonstop killing several hundreds of human soldiers at once.
"SPREAD OUT AND RETREAT!!!" The armies'' leader swiftly ordered his men to retreat when he saw their situation turned into worst.
Bi Fang would also not let this chance to avenge itself slip away just like that. It immediately pped its me wings and flew closer to the human armies that scattered away then opened its beak to shot out another column of crimson mes.
What happened next was no longer a battle but a true massacre.
The human armies heavily relied on their defense formation to withstand the attacks from Bi Fang so the result could be easily imagined when their formation crumbled apart.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard and Bi Fang harvested the human armies'' lives like they burned therge pile of scattering dry leaves.
Even Tang Li Xue did not have the heart to watch what happened next to the human armies'' side, she closed her eyes and pretend to fall asleep on the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s grasp.
The massacre ended only in ten minutes or so, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard and Bi Fang hunted the human soldiers until they contented.
"Fellow Beast Lord, thank you very much for your help! I really appreciate it. If you need my help next time I will be ready to help you any time." Bi Fang expressed its gratitude to Red-Eyes Winged Lizard and bowed its head a bit.
Bi Fang''s voice was really beautiful like ark, it was very pleasant to anyone''s ear. The way its move was also very elegant, different from Red-Eyes Winged Lizard that had a hoarse voice and crude manner.
Tang Li Xue could already imagine if this Bi Fang evolved into a spirit beastter, it would definitely turn into a very beautifuldy full of noble aura.
As for the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard? It would definitely turn into an ugly coarse middle-aged man for sure when it evolved into a spirit beastter.
"There is no need to be that serious. Actually, I did it not to help you. I see all of those filthy humans are not pleasant in my eyes so I decided to ughter them all! That''s all." Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said nonchntly.
"Fellow Beast Lord, you are really humble. Which human is pleasant in the eyes of beasts like us? All of them are so hideous, treacherous, and unreasonable." The Bi Fang giggled when it heard Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s excuse.
"I am Red-Eyes Winged Lizard from Lizard n. This is my little friend, the white silver fox. I n to drop her off to that ''ce''." Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not mind Bi Fang''s words since it was amon knowledge that almost all beasts hate humans. Red-Eyes Winged Lizard started to introduce itself and Tang Li Xue to Bi Fang.
Chapter 101 - 101: Bi Fangs Gift!
Chapter 101 - 101: Bi Fang''s Gift!
"Oh? Isn''t it too early for her to head there? She is still savage beast after all. I doubt that ''ce'' would let her in just like that. At least, she must pass all of their cruel trials first but it''s too dangerous for her current level. Hm..." Bi Fang stared at Tang Li Xue doubtfully and pondered something for a few moments.
Tang Li Xue frowned when she heard ''cruel trials'' words from Bi Fang.
''What the hell?! I must pass some trials first to enter that whatever ''home''?!''
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard only chuckled when it heard Bi Fang''s doubtful words and it also replied full of confidence: "I have my own reason. I am really sure that she can pass all of those trials with her skills. Don''t look down on her because she is still a savage beast. This littless is smarter than most of the demonic beasts and she also already has her own divine ability!"
"She already has a divine ability even when she is still at savage beast level?! She really has huge potential! Now I know why you put so much attention to her." Bi Fang nodded while kept examining Tang Li Xue with its golden eyes.
Tang Li Xue felt a bit ufortable under Bi Fang scrutinized. Fortunately, it only took a few minutes then Bi Fang stopped observing Tang Li Xue and took something under its crimson wing with its beak.
Tang Li Xue understood Bi Fang''s intention after it bowed its crimson crane-like head closer to her.
''It looks like this Bi Fang wants to give something to me? Food, maybe? Well... I am okay as long as it''s something delicious! It would be perfect if it gives me a legendary fruit that can grant me another divine ability! Something like Golden Bodhi Fruit in that whatever Elder herb garden... Uwehehehe...''
Tang Li Xue swiftly stretched out her paws to catch Bi Fang''s gift for her. But her expression turned dark the moment she saw what Bi Fang gave to her actually was not food but a crimson-colored broken shard.
The crimson-colored shard really looks beautiful like a ruby gem and its price should be very expensive but something that cannot be eaten in Tang Li Xue''s mind was nothing but a useless item.
However, the moment Tang Li Xue touched the crimson shard, the Blue Phoenix inside her Dantian instantly opened its crimson eyes.
Tang Li Xue could felt it that her Deep-Blue Phoenix of Pride wanted to devour this crimson-colored shard so badly. It even wanted to fly out from Tang Li Xue''s Dantian right away and snatch this crimson-colored shard from Tang Li Xue''s paws.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue quickly suppressed the Blue Phoenix and calmed it down on time so it did not fly out from her Dantian in the end.
The Bi Fang could see a glint of disappointment from Tang Li Xue''s eyes even it was only for a moment, it giggled at Tang Li Xue''s naive reaction and calmly exining: "This shard may look useless like an expensive gem sold any human cities but it''s actually worth more than that. The reason I can evolve into Bi Fang is actually thanks to this crimson shard."
Tang Li Xue: ''?!''
Even the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard could not see anything worth from the crimson shard so it also started to listen to Bi Fang''s exnation carefully.
"This crimson shard is the fortuitous encounter I got from an ancient ruin inside a volcano a long time ago.?I also don''t know where this crimson shard came from but it can help you refine your me, make it gradually be purer and stronger." The Bi Fang exined while staring at Tang Li Xue gently.
"I can feel a powerful me resting inside you and it also still in its embryonic form so this crimson shard should be able to make your me stronger. I hope it can help you pass all your trialster." The Bi Fang tapped Tang Li Xue''s furry head with its beak fondly.
Tang Li Xue was extremely touched after she knew this crimson shard''s worth from Bi Fang''s exnation.
''Wha... what a kind-hearted sister?! Sister Bi Fang, I... I can''t ept this gift! This is too precious! You should use it for yourself so you can evolve into a higher grade beast using this shard!''
Of course, Tang Li Xue was still Tang Li Xue after all. Even though she said it like that in her mind, she already carefully stored the precious crimson shard in her space pouch.
"Is that really okay to give something that precious away to that littless? I think it really is a waste to give it to someone weak like her. You should just use it yourself so you can evolve into a spirit beast faster." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said to Bi Fang while kept staring at it.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was trying to judge if Bi Fang did it out for an ulterior motive or just pure kindness.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard did not believe this Bi Fang was that generous. No matter how kind this Bi Fang, it would certainly not give its precious treasure away to Tang Li Xue without any string attached to it.
"Of course I would never give it away if I can still use it to make me stronger. Unfortunately, that shard can only help me to reach this far. I can no longer use it to refine my me and make it stronger. Sigh... It is really unfortunate..." Bi Fang shook its head in frustration and regret.
"If only I have the other shards. No, it would still useless even if I have all the shards since I cannot fix it anyway. If only I find this divine treasure before it shattered into tiny shards like this, it should be able to help me reach spirit beast level or even higher..." Bi Fang still mumbled absentmindedly.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard nodded its scaly head after it heard Bi Fang''s exnation. So that crimson shard could only help the me-type beast to reach the top-rank of the demonic beast level. That was why the Bi Fang generously gifted it to Tang Li Xue.
Since in Bi Fang''s hands, that crimson shard was nothing more than a memento that helped it to reach its current level, nothing more.
Bi Fang and Red-Eyes Winged Lizard noticed the excitement shone from the deepest of Tang Li Xue''s eyes after she heard all Bi Fang''s words but they only thought, Tang Li Xue was excited because she got an item that can help her me grow purer and stronger.
No one knew that Tang Li Xue actually excited for a different reason.
''Fix?! Divine treasure?! This crimson shard is actually a fragment of divine treasure?! What if... Just what if I used my [Restoration Elixir] that can restore any broken item to this crimson shard. WOAH! I... I cannot wait for it anymore!''
Tang Li Xue turned bloodshot but she held down the urge to use her [Restoration Elixir]?to the crimson shard with great difficulty.
''Fuuuuuh... Fuuuuuh... calm down, Li Tang Xue... I mean Tang Li Xue. If I do it now in front of Bi Fang and Red-Eyes Winged Lizard, what if it is a sess and it triggers their greedy nature then they forcefully took it from me in the end. I would not have any strength to fight them at all.''
An innocent person will be a great sinner if he/she has a precious jade and would be hunted like a criminal.
If you have the precious treasure then you also need great strength to protect it. If you did not have sufficient strength then no one could know that you have the precious treasure!
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was already locked up inside the Asura Demon Sect for too long so it wanted to know any news about whatever happened outside from Bi Fang. That was why Red-Eyes Winged Lizard kept conversing with Bi Fang after Bi Fang gave Tang Li Xue that crimson shard.
While Tang Li Xue impatiently waited for Red-Eyes Winged Lizard until it finished all of its business with Bi Fang. She did not even have any mood to hear what they were talking about.
After having a talk for a few hours, Bi Fang finally bid its farewell to Red-Eyes Winged Lizard and Tang Li Xue since it has some urgent business to take care of.
Different from the cker Red-Eyes Winged Lizard that have nothing to do, Bi Fang actually had an important position in its firebird n and she was actually doing some important errant right now but she got ambushed by the fellow demonic beast in its way and ended up facing the human armies after that.
"Littless, it is really rare for you to be like this. Acting like a good quiet and obedient fox, kindly waiting for me to finish my talk with that Bi Fang withoutining at all." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard squinted its red eyes and suspiciously stared at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s tiny furry body shuddered a bit when she heard the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s words and under its intense staring, she immediately put her most innocent expression and staring back at the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard with her clear topaz blue eyes.
''What are you talking about? I don''t understand it at all! Actually, I can''t even hear it at all!''
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard immediately snatched Tang Li Xue''s space pouch on her neck with its giant w. Its speed was so fast that Tang Li Xue did not have any time to reach at all.
"You are acting very strange after you got that crimson shard... I really don''t like it when you started to acting so sneakily like this. How about I confiscated your space pouch for a few days? Wait a minute... THIS IS MY SPACE POUCH, isn''t it? So I have the full right to confiscate it." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard grinned mischievously when it saw Tang Li Xue panicked reaction.
''Dammit! This bast*rd fake dragon! Usually it''s so dull, silly, careless, andzy! How could it be so sharp today? Sigh... Should I tell it the truth or not? But this fake dragon also has its own golden me. What if it try to seize the divine treasure from meter?''
Chapter 102 - 102: Divine Treasure Rebirth!
Chapter 102 - 102: Divine Treasure Rebirth!
Tang Li Xue jumped around using her [High Jump] skill, trying to take her space pouch back from the fake dragon while the fake dragon was only toying around with her. It took the space pouch closer to Tang Li Xue but immediately pulled it back before she can touch it.
The Red-Eyed Winged Lizard has always been together with Tang Li Xue for almost a month so it could already understand most of Tang Li Xue''s nature.
ording to Tang Li Xue''s nature in Red-Eyed Winged Lizard''s mind, she should be so happy the moment she got the crimson shard from Bi Fang and she would urge the Bi Fang or Red-Eyed Winged Lizard to hurry and teach her how to use the crimson shard.
Forget about storing the crimson shard to her space pouch, she would hold it and stare at it all day, unwilling to part with it for even one second like a child that got a new toy and it wouldst for a few days.
But now?
Tang Li Xue did not ask anything about how to use the crimson shard and immediately stored it in a space pouch. She even calmly waited for Bi Fang and Red-Eyed Winged Lizard to finish their talk without doing anything.
The usual Tang Li Xue? Forget about waiting for a few hours, she would rather hunt a few preys nearby or y around with Yaya than stood there and waiting for the Red-Eyed Winged Lizard to finish its business.
From all of these, the Red-Eyed Winged Lizard could conclude that Tang Li Xue had something she tried to hide from it and Bi Fang which was why she remained silent all this time and waited for them patiently like a good kid.
After a few hours of struggle, Tang Li Xue finally gave up and decided to tell the Red-Eyed Winged Lizard about it honestly using her gesture like usual.
"Hmmm? You can restore that crimson shard back into its usual form?" the Red-Eyed Winged Lizard asked Tang Li Xue doubtfully.
Tang Li Xue puffed up her furry chest and smugly nodded her head to answer the Red-Eyed Winged Lizard question.
"Pffft... Bwahahaha... How could it be? It is impossible! You don''t even have the other fragments! How can you restore it to its original form?!" The Red-Eyed Winged Lizardughed out loud and mocked Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes at the fake dragon''s mocking while thinking: ''Humph... We will see who wouldugh at whomter! I will definitely make you gawked stupidly when I manage to restore this divine treasure''s true form!''
Although the Red-Eyed Winged Lizard did not believe Tang Li Xue''s words at all but it still fulfilled her wish and bring her to the deste ce without any people or beasts.
After flew for several hours until the skies turnedpletely dark, the Red-Eyed Winged Lizard and Tang Li Xue arrived at the ce that fit her requirement.
It was a deep cave under the active volcano.
There were no people or beasts near this ce since the active volcano could erupt any time but the Red-Eyed Winged Lizard not afraid of theva at all and with its protection, Tang Li Xue also safe here.
"Littless, I don''t know how you restore that crimson shard back into the divine treasure but it would certainly create argemotion while you are doing it so I will seal this entire cave with my Nirvana me''s Barrier. If you really seedter, my barrier certainly cannot suppress the natural phenomenon created by it so WE MUST GET OUT FROM HERE AS FAST AS WE CAN!" The Red-Eyed Winged Lizard gave a very stern warning to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue nodded nonchntly since her head right now full of happiness. In fact, she was so happy that she could only barely contain herugh when she stared at the crimson shard she held in her paws.
"Sigh... but really you are such a fool to hide something like this from me. Do you really think I will forcefully take that thing from you once you finished restoring its original form?! You are really hurting my feeling... And you are so naive! Do you truly think you can hide that thing by yourself once you restore it back?! Without my help, you certainly would not be able to hide it!" The Red-Eyed Winged Lizard angrily reprimanded Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue snapped out from her happiness mood and lowered her head a bit to apologize to the Red-Eyed Winged Lizard.
''Sigh... greediness is really blinded my eyes and clouded my judgment before. I wonder why I got so suspicious toward this fake dragon... It was as if something deep inside me warned me to not trust this fake dragonpletely... maybe this fake dragon did something bad to me before... meh, but I really can''t remember any of it...''
Tang Li Xue shook her head and decided to focus on what she needs to do for now. She waved her paw to the Red-Eyed Winged Lizard and entered the deep cave under the volcano alone.
BWOOOOOSH~~!!!
The Red-Eyed Winged Lizard spurted out arge amount of its golden Nirvana mes out.
The golden mes swiftly covered the deep cave entrance along with its wall and ceiling then slowly turned into a thin golden film that covered everything.
"Littless! Remember, you must do it fast! I can''t hold it for long! After you restore that thing, store it immediately, and go back out! We will leave as fast and far as we can from here!" The Red-Eyed Winged Lizard shouted itsst warning to Tang Li Xue from the cave entrance.
Tang Li Xue stopped her step when she felt that she entered deep enough and put the crimson shard onto the ground.
''Uh... wait a minute... I almost forgot about Yaya! Haha... I will summon her out first. At least, she can help to watch my back when I restore this crimson shardter.''
Tang Li Xue opened Yaya''s status window from her system and pushed > button in it.
Yaya''s tiny palm-sized figure instantly appeared out of thin air near where Tang Li Xue stood.
"Yayaya~~ Ya!" Yaya immediately pounced to Tang Li Xue and happily hugged Tang Li Xue''s neck like usual.
''Hahaha... good girl! But this is not the right time for us to y around. Listen...''
Tang Li Xue patted Yaya''s tiny head and patiently exined what happened before then what they will need to do right now.
Yaya nodded her tiny head with solemn and determined expression while waving her tiny fists around as if saying that: ''Tang Li Xue could leave everything to her and she surely would protect Tang Li Xue with everything she got!''
Yaya looked so cute and Tang Li Xue really wanted to pitch her puffed cheeks but she suppressed it and took out her [Restoration Elixir] from her system inventory.
''Hopefully, it will really work! Fuuuuuh... Here goes nothing!''
Tang Li Xue opened the cork from the [Restoration Elixir]''s vial then began to slowly pour out the transparent liquid to the crimson shard drop by drop very carefully.
Tang Li Xue did not dare to take off her eyes from the crimson shard even for a half-second. She did not even dare to blink and kept observing the crimson shard''s transformation meticulously.
The thumb-sized crimson shard started to deform when it touched the liquid from the [Restoration Elixir].
At first, the thumb-sized crimson shard melted and be like a clump of mud then the red mud started to boil.
The boiling red mud started to form bubbles.
Tang Li Xue gawked in shock when she saw the crimson shard''s transformation. She started to panic and all kinds of bad thoughts appeared in her mind.
''What if I am wrong and this is not the correct way to use this [Restoration Elixir]? What if this crimson shard''s true form is not a divine treasure but this pile of useless red mud? Arrrggghh... Dammit! Should I continue to do this or stop it? If I stop it now... At least, I will still have a half bottle of [Restoration Elixir] left...''
Tang Li Xue wavered for a few moments but she immediately gritted her teeth and took a firm decision.
''CONTINUE! Quitting halfway is not my way of doing things! And I am sure that I can get the other [Restoration Elixir] again next time from the system... hopefully...''
Tang Li Xue poured all of [Restoration Elixir]''s transparent liquid onto the red mud made from the crimson shard in one go. Now she could only pray that everything would go smoothly ording to her wish.
The boiling red mud started to change again!
This time all of the red mudpletely evaporated and turned into red gas.
It got farther and farther away from Tang Li Xue''s ideal image of the divine treasure in her mind. This time Tang Li Xue was really sure that she hadpletely utterly failed.
Tang Li Xue could only lower her head and sighed in disappointment but before she decided to leave the cave...
BADUM... BADUM... BADUM... BADUM... BADUM...
Tang Li Xue could felt that the me of Pride inside her dantian had gone crazy and it could not wait to pounce out right away.
''This... what happened?!''
The red gas started to condense into something solid but Tang Li Xue could not see it clearly for now.
The cave temperature also started to rise sharply and made Yaya ufortable.
''That is... there is something inside that red gas! I... I did it! I really did it! Woah... I wonder what kind of divine treasure will be born!''
Tang Li Xue excitedly watched the red gas transform into something in front of her eyes.
WEEEEEENG~~!!!
The item inside the red gas started to emit an intense crimson and gold light along with intense heat!
''IT''S DONE! That is a... Eh... Eeeehhhh... What the hell is that... a marble?''
Chapter 103 - 103: Yaya VS Blue Phoenix of Pride!
Chapter 103 - 103: Yaya VS Blue Phoenix of Pride!
The red gas kept condensing and made the crimson marble growingrger andrger.
When the red gaspletely vanished, the crimson marble already turned into a crimson orb as big as a tennis ball.
There was a faint golden light at the center of the crimson orb and if anyone was paying close attention to it, they would notice there were countless tiny golden runes that kept orbiting around the faint golden light inside the crimson orb.
Tang Li Xue was really fascinated by the crimson orb. She could faintly hear some roarsing out from the crimson orb from the time to time.
The countless tiny golden runes and the golden light inside the crimson orb slowly merged into something and the roarsing out from it was getting louder and louder.
''That is... A Golden Dragon?! Woah... Is that the real Golden Dragon sealed inside that crimson orb?!''
Yes, the countless tiny golden runes and the golden lightpletely merged and forming a majestic golden dragon. It was currently swimming around inside the crimson orb.
Tang Li Xue stepped forward and wanted to try touching the crimson orb with her tiny paw but before she could do that...
BWOOOOSH~~!!!
The overbearing Phoenix of Pride flew out from Tang Li Xue''s Dantian and heading toward where the crimson orb was still floating.
Everything was happening so quickly that Tang Li Xue did not even have any time to react, much less stopping or suppressing the Phoenix of Pride like before.
''YOU! STOP IT! Dammit! This naughty me! Yaya, stop that naughty me from touching that red orb for me!''
Phoenix of Pride and Yaya could understand Tang Li Xue''s thought easily but Phoenix of Pride was blinded by its hunger right now so it did not heed any of Tang Li Xue''s order this time.
After spending time together for two weeks, it was not exaggerating to say that Yaya was the person who could understand Tang Li Xue the most right now.
Also... Yaya was very jealous of the blue Phoenix of Pride since it could stay close to Tang Li Xue all the time inside her Dantian, so she used this rare chance to teach the blue Phoenix of Pride a very harsh lesson it would never forget for its entire life!
Yaya was using her [Gale Step] and her green figure already shed toward the blue Phoenix of Pride even before Tang Li Xue asked her to do it.
[Gale Prison]!
The surrounding air started to swirl violently and formed the small tornado that trapped the blue Phoenix of Pride inside it.
Yaya thought her [Gale Prison] was enough to trap the small blue Phoenix for a few seconds but unfortunately, she was wrong.
The small tornado swelled bigger and bigger when it mixed with the deep-blue meing from the small blue Phoenix that trapped inside it and...
KAAABOOOOOM~~~!!!
With Yaya''s unmatchable speed as a wind elemental spirit, she decided to not give the blue Phoenix of Pride any chance to move or counterattack.
[Air Bullet]!
Different from the Gale Wolf that could only fire the [Air Bullet] one by one from its mouth, with Yaya''s power to manipte the surrounding air and wind, she could instantly shot tens of [Air Bullet] at once!
However, how could the arrogant blue Phoenix of Pride keep quiet after being attacked by Yaya?! It immediately decided to attack back!
[me Arrow]!
The blue Phoenix of Pride summoned out tens of [me Arrow] in an instant and shot it to meet all of Yaya''s [Air Bullet]!
BOOM... BOOM... BOOM... BOOM... BOOM... BOOM...
Each of Yaya''s [Air Bullet] countered by the blue Phoenix of Pride [me Arrow] and exploded leaving nothing behind.
YIIIIIIIIIIIII~~~!!!
The blue Phoenix of Pride screamed full of anger. It opened its sharp beak and sprayed arge amount of deep-blue mes toward Yaya.
[Fire Breath]!
Yaya did not panic when arge amount of deep-blue mes almost touched her small green figure. She calmly activated her defensive skill, [Wind Barrier]!
The gentle wind was blowing and therge wave of deep-blue mes was splitting in two as if it crashed onto with some invisible wall.
While kept maintaining her [Wind Barrier], Yaya stuck out her tiny pink tongue to mocking the blue Phoenix of Pride.
Yaya slowly twirled her tiny fingers and several sharp [Wind des] formed above the blue Phoenix of Pride. The several sharp [Wind des] flew downward with terrifying speed like guillotine des that ready to take anyone''s head.
Tang Li Xue already personally retrieved the crimson orb with her furry paws but now, she waspletely stupefied at how strong her two elemental spirits were.
''Holysh*t! So strong! And... They are using all of their skills so smoothly too without any dy!''
If the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard heard what Tang Li Xue thought right now, it would probably mock her again.
All elemental spirits were nature''s darling.
This kind of fight was no more than babies'' squabble for elemental spirits!
If it was two a.d.u.l.t elemental spirits that fought each other, the entire volcano area along with the several ten thousand miles nearby area would probably be razed to the ground. The entire topography wouldpletely change and no creature living near this area could survive.
That was how terrifying these elemental spirits would be!
Even the weakest and lowest-rank of me elemental spirit would have the strength to destroy this entire volcano.
Of course, it was if those mes elemental spirits still have their own consciousness because when the human forcefully assimte with the me elemental spirit, they would also erase the me elemental spirit consciousness to make it easier for them to control but it will stop the me elemental spirit from growing further.
All elemental spirits were overbearing and arrogant, they have very high self-esteem and they were looking down on all living creatures other than themselves like beasts and humans.
No elemental spirits would want to assimte with any beasts and humans, all of them would rather self-destruct themselves rather than submitting to other species.
That was why humans usually chose to erase the me elemental spirits'' consciousness. Although it would stop their growth and limited their strength but at least they could control it like controlling a soulless puppet.
Fortunately for the me of Pride before, it was still too small and weak so Elder Lin decided to nurture it with his best resources. It was good if the me of Pride could submit to him and voluntarily assimte with him but if the me of Pride still refuses to ept him then Elder Lin nned to erased its consciousness when the me of Pride grow strongerter.
Unfortunately, a certain silver fox ruined his entire n and dream in one night...
Actually, it was still the biggest mystery why the me of Pride voluntarily epted that certain silver fox as its master that night!
Of course, Yaya''s case was different since she was basically imprinting Tang Li Xue as her one and only object that she can fully trust.
While Tang Li Xue still gawked in shock, the fight between Yaya and the blue Phoenix of Pride escted even more!
BWOOOOOOOOSSSH~~!!!
The blue Phoenix of Pride cleverly used its [me Cloak] to cover its entire body. The deep-blue me that covered its entire body got thicker and denser.
The [me Cloak]pletely turned into [me Wall] in an instant. It managed to burn all Yaya''s [Wind des] to nothingness with its extremely high temperature in the end.
After that, the blue Phoenix of Pride canceled the [me Wall] but it used its dense deep-blue me to active its other skill, [Fire Dash]!
The dense deep-blue me was swirling around the blue Phoenix of Pride enhanced its speed by many times and made its current speed capable of momentarily contenting with Yaya.
Yaya felt that her pride as a wind elemental spirit was challenged by the blue Phoenix of Pride when it tried to use its speed to face her.
Yaya sneered mockingly at the blue Phoenix of Pride as if she was saying: ''How dare a fire elemental spirit to challenge me in the battle of speed!''
Yaya immediately activated her [Gale Step] to face the blue Phoenix of Pride and her small green figure instantly vanished. She moved too fast for the eyes to see so it made as if she has vanished into thin air.
When Yaya got closer to the blue Phoenix of Pride, she could faintly see that it sneered at her as if it was looking down on her intelligence.
The blue Phoenix of Pride actually condensed a [Fire Bomb] secretly when it defended itself from Yaya''s [Wind des] with its [Fire Wall] before.
Usually, condensing a [Fire Bomb] would take some time and Yaya would surely realize it sooner orter if not for the [Fire Wall] that covered her vision and the Phoenix of Pride''s provocation.
''Bad! I fell into its trap!'' Yaya thought but it was already toote for her to keep her distance from the Phoenix of Pride so she could only be facing the blue Phoenix of Pride''s attack directly.
Yaya swiftly raised her tiny right palm above her head when she saw the blue Phoenix of Pride throwing a condensed [Fire Bomb] toward her.
Yaya swung her tiny right palm down and a tall imposing cyclone shot out toward the blue Phoenix of Pride!
[Cyclone sh]!
The [Fire Bomb] condensed from the high-temperature deep-blue me meet with the [Cyclone sh] that were condensed from countless sharp wind des!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
The earth-shattering and ear-splitting happened the moment the two attacks touched each other.
The entire deep cave almost fell apart. In fact, it would already copse down if not for the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s golden me barrier kept supporting it.
''THAT IS ENOUGH! STOP! STOP! STOP! THE TWO OF YOU STOP THIS MADNESS ALREADY!''
Tang Li Xue felt she almost lost her life when that huge explosion happened a few seconds ago.
She immediately shouted in her mind trying to stop her two elemental spirits from fighting each other again.
Chapter 104 - 104: Divine Treasure Phenomenon!
Chapter 104 - 104: Divine Treasure Phenomenon!
Fortunately, Yaya listened to Tang Li Xue''s words and stopped her attack so the blue Phoenix of Pride also halted its attack but they still kept staring at each other full of hostility.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when Yaya and the blue Phoenix of Pride stop fighting and she immediately checked her current HP for a moment.
HP: 42,035/63,200
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched a bit when she saw her current HP decreased by more than 20,000 points.
Tang Li Xue observed Yaya and the blue Phoenix of Pride.
Her mood worsened when she found out that the two of them were actually not injured at all.
While it was good that the two of them were not injured but she, the one who just stood on the side got hurt pretty badly. Basically, she just took the indirect impact when their lethal attacks collided.
Tang Li Xue approached the two of them and the first thing she did was to pet Yaya''s head gently with her paw.
Yaya''s rigid face full of hostility and anger instantly melted and reced by a bright cute smile that can even make any flower wilted in shame.
Tang Li Xue was very satisfied with what Yaya was doing before. If not for Yaya''s timely interruption, the blue Phoenix of Pride would already swallow the entire crimson orb and Tang Li Xue would never have any chance to even hold it.
After Tang Li Xue gently consoling Yaya, she turned her attention to the rebellious blue Phoenix of Pride and her gentle expression also changed into a stern expression.
''You really think you can do what you want, huh! Why do you need to be so anxious? Yaya is not a me-type elemental spirit, she cannot use this red orb. You and I are already assimted so it is the same whoever consumes or uses this thingter! Whether you or I that used itter, It will only benefit you alone after all!''
''There is no need to be so anxious! Now go back to my Dantian and cool your head first! I will give you this thing after I examine it carefully first. We are connected to each other now so I don''t want any of us to meet with any idents because of this thing.''
If Yaya was like a cute and obedient daughter then the blue Phoenix of Pride was like a rebellious and naughty boy. It always did whatever it wants and never thought other people''s opinions including Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue felt a terrible headache about the blue Phoenix of Pride''s attitude. She could rein Yaya using her system''s store function if Yaya was the one that rebellious and naughty.
But unfortunately, the problematic child was not Yaya but the blue Phoenix of Pride and she could not use the system''s store function to rein it since it assimted with her body and soul now.
The blue Phoenix of Pride was still staring at the crimson orb for a few moments full of unwillingness but it still decided to follow Tang Li Xue''s order in the end and flew back to her Dantian since what Tang Li Xue told to it was all correct.
It and Tang Li Xue were in one body and soul now, the blue Phoenix of Pride was Tang Li Xue''s me so whoever used the crimson orbter was the same.
In the end, the crimson orb would strengthen Tang Li Xue''s me, the blue Phoenix of Pride.
After calming down the chaotic situation, Tang Li Xue remembered what the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard told her to do before she entered this deep cave so she hastily stored the crimson orb into her space pouch and brought Yaya out from the deep cave with her.
"Aiya! Finally, you are out! Let''s go quickly! I cannot hold it anymore! The natural phenomenon is already formed! We are almostte! We would be really finished if those all old monstersing out from their hiding to check the divine treasure''s phenomenon here!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard quickly exined in one breath while swiftly grabbed Tang Li Xue and Yaya.
Tang Li Xue also bes nervous when she watched the phenomenon happened outside the deep cave. She never thought that restoring a divine treasure would trigger this kind of earth-shattering phenomenon.
A huge pir of rainbow light was radiating thousands of miles.
Inside the huge pir of light, there was a huge golden dragon''s shadow soaring higher and higher.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard could felt a terrifying pressure emanated from the huge golden dragon''s shadow.
"OH MY GOD!!! DRAGON... CLAN''S... DIVINE... TREASURE?!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard widened its huge red eyes with a mix of shock, disbelief, and reverence.
All Dragons were the existence higher than even spirit beasts. There was no Dragon in Immortal World, not even one. Not only Dragon but also mythical beasts like Phoenix, Kun Peng, Tao Tie, etc all of them were currently living at the Divine World.
Like its name, all the divine treasures were actually the treasures from the Divine World.
But because of certain circ.u.mstances like the fierce battle between Gods that tear the time and space, some of the divine treasures'' fragments sometimes could identally fell into Immortal World.
Bi Fang''s crimson fragment was the example of it but not the only one, there were actually many other divine treasures'' fragments but theplete divine treasures never fell into Immortal World.
So there was noplete divine treasure in Immortal World, only its fragments avable.
At least, until today...
The birth of the Dragon n''s Divine Treasure was bound to make everyone flock and fought to the death for it. The bloodbath would certainly follow it soon.
"This is bad! I never thought that you can really restore it! Moreover, it is the most precious one of all! Dragon n''s Divine Treasure! All humans and beasts would certainly go crazy over it! I should do something to cover our trace and to buy us some time to escape!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard gritted its fangs and started to think.
They could escape as far away as they could now but it would certainly leave some trace. Although, it was not so clear and very hard for any normal people to track them from it but all the old monsters have their own secret spell like Elder Shi''s irvoyance Technique.
"Right! The volcano! If I could make it erupt now... It should be enough to cover all of our traces and buy us some time to escape from here!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard flew with its full speed toward the volcano''s peak.
''What?! This fake dragon is really nning to make this volcano erupting?! It''s true that it will erase our track but it will also erase this entirendscape! It is also very dangerous since we are so close to the volcano now!''
Tang Li Xue also panicked. She wanted to refute the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s reckless n but she could not think better n to cover their trace.
She started to regret using her [Restoration Elixir] to restore the crimson shard here. Maybe it would be safer if she restores the crimson shard in the middle of the ocean or desertter but it was already toote now.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard sprayed out arge amount of golden mes from its giant''s mouth toward the volcano''s crater.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard kept pouring arge amount of its golden mes for a few minutes into the crater but the volcano still had not erupted.
"We are running out of time! Come on! PLEASE, ERUPT!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard murmured while kept spurting out its golden mes.
At this critical moment, the blue Phoenix of Pride was flying out again from Tang Li Xue''s Dantian and entered the volcano''s crater.
''WAIT! WHAT ARE YOU...''
KAAAAAABBBBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
The blue Phoenix of Pride only entered the volcano''s crater for a few seconds but it managed to make the volcano erupted.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard immediately used its golden barrier to protect Tang Li Xue and Yaya from theva and volcanic ash cloud.
Arge amount ofva was flowing out from the crater and started to flood the volcano''s surroundings.
The blue Phoenix of Pride flew out from the volcano''s crater, it became a lot weaker and its shape also turned more ethereal.
The blue Phoenix of Pride gave Yaya a provocative look as if saying ''can you even do this? Useless thing!'' before flying back to Tang Li Xue to and entered her Dantian to rest.
Yaya puffed her cheek in annoyance, she promised in her heart that she would work harder to be even stronger so she would be the one that protects Tang Li Xue in the future.
"Littless, your blue me is really great! As I expected from the one of the famous Seven Earthly Desire Spirits! Littless, you must treasure it and nurture it carefully! Okay, our business here is finished! Let''s hurry and go far away from here!" The Red-Eyed Winged Lizard pped its wide wings and fly away from the volcano.
''One of... the Seven Earthly Desire Spirits? What the hell is that? So my me of pride is not an elemental spirit? Oi, ugly fake dragon! At least, tell me everything properly! Don''t just leave me hanging with that half piece of information or yours!''
Tang Li Xue stared at the Red-Eyed Winged Lizard with a mix of anger and curiosity.
The Red-Eyed Winged Lizardughed out loud when it felt Tang Li Xue was staring at it like that.
"Sure, I will tell you about itter but you must tell me about that divine treasure of yours to me tooter! Deal?" The Red-Eyed Winged Lizard raised its brow and asked.
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a while. But the divine treasure in her hands was so precious so she did not immediately agree with the Red-Eyed Winged Lizard for now.
Chapter 105 - 105: Goodbye, Fake Dragon!
Chapter 105 - 105: Goodbye, Fake Dragon!
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard just flew a few hundred miles away from the erupted volcano but they already almost met with the first old monster with very high-level cultivation that heading toward the volcano.
Fortunately, Yaya warned them a few minutes before their group crossed their path with that old cultivator.
The moment the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard understood Yaya''s warning, it immediatelynded back to the ground and ran on its feet like the other beasts.
Actually, there were countless other beasts that ran away to avoid the volcano eruption so they ran in the opposite direction from where the volcano was, just like Tang Li Xue and her group.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard and Tang Li Xue could blend perfectly with the other escaping beasts but Yaya was very conspicuous since all elemental spirits were very rare and precious.
Tang Li Xue was afraid that Yaya would attract some high-level cultivators'' greed so she stored Yaya back into her system before anyone could spot her.
A few seconds after that, the first old monster with very high-level cultivation flew right above them using his flying sword and heading toward the erupted volcano.
The pressure emitting from that old cultivator was very heavy and it made every creature near him suffocating.
Different from Yaya''s parent that suppressed the pressure from its power so it did not hurt anyone weaker before, this cultivator deliberately let out the pressure from his cultivation to exerting his dominance.
Tang Li Xue almost wanted to raise her furry head reflexively but the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard warned her sternly before that.
"Do not look at him! All high-level experts from humans or beasts have very sharp sense! They would instantly notice it if someone is watching them!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard whispered to Tang Li Xue using its telepathy.
That high-level old cultivator was flying very fast.
After one or two seconds, the heavy pressure from that old cultivatorpletely vanished from where Tang Li Xue and the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard were.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and she tried to ask something from the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard using her gestures.
She made a fist gesture and pointed to the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard then pointed above their head.
"You want to ask who is stronger between me and that old monster?! Hahaha... That old monster probably at the early rank of Nascent Soul Stage so he is much stronger than me but he also cannot hurt me with my impregnable defense. So it would be a stalemate if we fight." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard put a proud expression.
However, its expression darkened after that and mumbling: "But do not try to fight him if you fall under the same situation someday! Usually, that old monster onlyes to scouting ahead and some reinforcements from his sect wouldeter. If I fight him for a while, his reinforcements would surelye to helpter and even though they cannot hurt me, they can capture me using the treasures from their sect!"
Tang Li Xue immediately nodded. Now she understood why this fake dragon could be captured by the Asura Demon Sect even with its perfect defense. The same scenario as today should have happened before to this fake dragon.
.....
...
.
It was already a few days after Tang Li Xue and the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard ran away in the opposite direction from the erupted volcano.
They were forced to take the detour so it would take a few days longer for them to reach their destination.
Actually, their journey after that became really dangerous like treading on the thin ice.
But they have no choice on this matter, there were countless cultivators and beasts patrolling around and checking everyone''s things.
Of course, Tang Li Xue kept traveling using her [Ethereal Form] since that so she could easily bypass all of their inspection.
There were also countless cases of robbing and killing in this area since then but it was mostly caused by humans.
Most humans not only robbed their own kin, but also killing many beasts to extract their beast cores, blood, bones, and furs. Many parts of demonic beasts were highly valuable so how could the greedy humans let this chance pass just like that.
Fortunately, [Rare] grade demonic Beasts on the same level with the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard were usually wise so they did not make things difficult for the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard but it was different when they met with humans. They would immediately attack any humans they see with the intention to kill!
This situation really made Tang Li Xue confused.
''So all beasts hate humans very much while all humans want to hunt the beasts since they can sell their body parts for the high prices. However, humans would still kill their own kin for money, fun, woman, and treasure. While the beasts would rarely kill their fellow beasts without any reason?''
Tang Li Xue scratched her furry head in puzzlement.
''Why do I starting to feel that the beasts have kinder hearts than humans? Oh well... whatever!''
Tang Li Xue started to get excited again when she thought about the crimson orb treasure she restored before.
She did not dare to take the crimson orb out from her space pouch and examine it closely even now after she ran farther from the erupted volcano for a few days.
However, it was also futile for her to examine the crimson orb with her current measly ability, she would certainly not be able to discover anything useful for now.
''Hmmm... Wait a minute. What if I buy an ability that can help me identify items from the system''s skill window? Let see...''
But before Tang Li Xue could open the skill window in her system...
"Littless, change of n. It looks like you need to go alone from now on." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said to Tang Li Xue while sighing in disappointment.
Tang Li Xue frowned and staring back at the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard in puzzlement.
"One of my fellows from the Lizard n noticed me just now. I already disappeared for quite long and the first time he saw me was in this area where the precious divine treasure from Dragon n appeared. It was not strange that he and the Lizard n were suspicious of me now. He wanted me to follow him back to the Lizard n and I must ept their interrogation as soon as possible. Sigh..." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard shook its giant head after exining.
Tang Li Xue frowned even deeper after she heard the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s exnation. She immediately asked something back using her gestures.
"You are asking if I am okay and if it is too dangerous for me then you will give that divine treasure to me so I can give it to my Lizard n? Really? This... This is not like you!!!"?The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard widened its eyes in shock but its heart was extremely touched.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes thenzily nodded her furry head and kept staring at the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard waiting for its answer.
''What do you mean ''this is not like me!''?! I have a kind heart too, okay?! So how could I abandon my own mount! Well, I don''t know how to use that crimson orb anyway and I doubt the people from your n could know how to use it in such a short period of time. I can always steal it back using my [Ethereal Form]ter after they find some way to use it! Uwehehehe...''
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard chuckled and tapped Tang Li Xue''s head gently using its giant w: "Littless, I already owe you so much for releasing me from that hellish ce before so how could I let you do it again now?! My pride as a demonic beast will really be reduced to nothingness by you if you doing something like that for me again. Don''t worry about me! This is only a small problem. I will tell them what happened to me honestly excluding what happened at that volcano."
Tang Li Xue was still staring at the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard full of worry. She knew that ording to the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s true nature, it was impossible for the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard to let her traveling alone if it had another choice since the situation on the outside world was unpredictable and full of dangers.
"Hahaha... Littless, do you really think that I will go back to my Lizard n to get interrogated by them? The main reason for me to go back to my Lizard n is to recuperating and prepares myself to evolve..." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard slowly said with an expression full of longing.
''E...Ev... Evol... Evolve?! This fake dragon is already a [Rare] grade demonic beast... If it evolves one more time... Isn''t that mean this fake dragon would be A SPIRIT BEAST?! Woah!!!''
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard chuckled again when it saw Tang Li Xue staring at it full of reverence.
"That is right! I will be a spirit beast! So no matter how suspicious the Lizard n is to me, they will never dare to hurt me. Since if I sessfully be a Spirit Beast then I would officially be the candidate for the next n leader!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard petted Tang Li Xue''s furry head once again using its giant w gently.
"So you don''t need to worry about me! I wille back to find you after I finish all of my business in my Lizard n. Oh yeah! I almost forgot to tell you the most important! Actually, I want to tell you this after we arrived at the Foxes Home so you will not forget itter." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s expression turned solemn.
Tang Li Xue was very sad when she heard that she must separate from the fake dragon here but her expression also turned serious when she saw the fake dragon''s solemn expression.
"This is about your blue me. You must never use it carelessly from now on! Especially after you enter the Foxes Hometer!"?The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard warned Tang Li Xue using a very stern tone.
''My blue Phoenix of Pride? Why?'' Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise.
She never thought that thest warning the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard would give her was actually about her me of Pride.
''Is it because my me of Pride is one of that whatever Seven Earthly Desire Spirit? It sounds like seven sins knock off!!! So there are seven other mes like me of Pride or what? Sigh... Headache...''
Tang Li Xue rubbed her furry head with her soft paw.
Chapter 106 - 106: 7 Earthly Desire Spirits and 7 Heavenly Will Spirits
Chapter 106 - 106: 7 Earthly Desire Spirits and 7 Heavenly Will Spirits
"Little Lass, you got your blue me from that master alchemist''s ce, right? And if I am not wrong... that master alchemist got that blue me from that fatty Mo, right?" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard raised its brows and asked.
Tang Li Xue nodded her furry head twice and kept listening.
"Tsk... Tsk... Tsk... I don''t know anymore who the lucky one is. If that fatty Mo knew what that blue me truly is, he certainly would never give it to the old master alchemist no matter what happened. But then again... since that blue me fell into your hands now, so the luckiest one is you I guess..." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard exined while observing Tang Li Xue closely from her tip to toe.
Tang Li Xue was having a goosebumps when the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard observing her, she immediately crossed her paws on her chest while staring back at the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard in doubt.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizardughed at Tang Li Xue''s exaggerating reaction and continues to exin: "In this Immortal World, There are 7 different elementals. The 5 elementals are called basic elementals consist of fire, wind, thunder or lightning, water or ice, and earth. Thest 2 elementals are called the elementals of bnce: light and darkness."
"The other elementals are only other branches from these 7 elementals. For example, the metal elemental is actually the branch of the earth elemental, poison elemental is actually the branch of the water elemental, and many other elementals also like that." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard raised its ws to exin more clearly.
"And... the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits are actually referring to 7 different elemental spirits with the most vicious effect in the entire Immortal World! Why are they called Earthly Desire Spirits? Because their vicious effects have not only affected their enemies but also their users." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard raised its voice a bit so Tang Li Xue could hear it more clearly.
''Eh... Eeeehhhhhh... Mo... Whaaaaat?! Most vicious effect?!?Not the strongest but the most vicious?! What the hell is that?!'' Tang Li Xue stared at the Fake Dragon quizzically.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard chuckled when it saw Tang Li Xue''s weird expression and say: "What? Do you really think your me is the strongest me in Immortal World? Bwahahaha... What a kid!"
"Listen... Littless, there is no such thing as strongest techniques or strongest elemental spirits in this world! Everything has its own strength and weakness! The one that will decide how strong or weak it will be is the user''s strength! If the user is strong then those techniques or elemental spirits would be even more powerful. If the user is weak then no matter how strong the techniques or elemental spirits are he/she would never be able to use it properly." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard warned Tang Li Xue harshly.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head. She already understood this fact before when she was facing the fatty uncle before in her room. She has powerful me and divine abilities but she was so powerless in front of the fatty uncle and even got killed in one move twice by him!
"Back to our previous topic, the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits'' vicious effects are so strong that it allows the user to defeat the opponent above their level so they are greatly coveted by everyone. I am afraid if some old monsters from beasts or humans recognize it, they would forcefully extract it out from your body! That''s why you must be really careful and not use your me carelessly. Especially in front of someone old with great knowledge! Do you hear me?" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard said with a stern tone and tap Tang Li Xue''s head with its giant w.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head to the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard with a solemn expression.
"Good! It''s good if you understand. Ah... The Foxes Home where you are heading to right now also has many old beast monsters so you should be really careful and never use your me inside there. All old beasts are usually very wise and they would never do something bad like that. On the contrary, they would probably value you more and nurture you using all of their resources but I still think it is better to be safe than sorry... Since you are too weak right now and they may not necessarily appreciate you."
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard mumbled slowly. Actually, it also had a headache about this problem. Should Tang Li Xue show her talent or conceal it?
"Oh well... The most important thing that you need to do right now is to be stronger as soon as possible! So much stronger that you do not need to be afraid of any threat from anyone! As for showing your true power or conceal itter after you arrived there, I will let you decided it for yourself!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard decided to entrust Tang Li Xue''s fate into her own hands in the end.
Tang Li Xue thought for a moment and decided to conceal her powerter because she also has her system to assist her to be stronger and she did not really need any resource for now since she has many good things in her space pouch.
She did not even have any time to check Elder Lin''s spatial ring before but she believes there were many precious things inside there since Elder Lin was a renowned alchemist master.
I still have hundreds of low-tier spirit stones produced by my martial soul and one mid-tier spirit stone I got from..... Eh... Wait a minute... Where did I get this mid-tier spirit stone from???''
Tang Li Xue scratched her furry head in confusion. She always felt that she had forgotten many thingstely.
''Don''t tell me I contracted Alzheimer Disease... Meh, I am only a few months old! How could someone young and strong like me contracted Alzheimer Disease?! Sigh... this must be the side effect because I have died twice in such a short period of time before....''
"Since I already tell you all about 7 Earthly Desire Spirits then I will also tell you about their ultimate rival, 7 Heavenly Will Spirits. 7 Earthly Desire Spirits are the most vicious elemental spirits among all spirits but still not crowned as the strongest, the main reason is that these 7 Heavenly Will Spirits couldpletely counter their abilities. So if you meet the me elemental spirit from these 7 Heavenly Will Spirits, your blue me would certainly be rendered useless by it! So be extra careful!" The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard warned Tang Li Xue again.
''Wh... What?!?There are even 7 Heavenly Will Spirits now? Ultimate rival? Couldpletely counter my me? Sigh... So much for me to remember and take precaution...''
"7 Heavenly Will Spirits are the gentle type elemental spirits. Their abilities are not dangerous and there are many ways to counter it but that does not mean they are weak. Like I said before, everything returned to how good their user used their ability and how strong their user''s strength are." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard smiled when it saw Tang Li Xue disappointed expression.
"You don''t need to worry that much. Your blue me is identical with one of the high-ranking me elemental spirits, Deep-Sea me. That was the reason why that fatty Mo and that old alchemist failed to recognize it as the one of 7 Earthly Desire Spirits. However, someone with rich knowledge would immediately know from its effect since the Deep-Sea me''s ability is to make anything it burned feel as if they are drowned in the deep sea. It would make them harder to move and they also cannot breathe,pletely different from your me''s ability. So you must..."
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard wanted to warn Tang Li Xue again but before it could finish its words...
"Fellow lizard! How much longer do you need to relieve yourself?! Let''s go now!"
Tang Li Xue turned her gaze toward where the voice wasing from.
She managed to spot a huge ugly green iguana-like lizard. Tang Li Xue used her [Identify] skill to read its status.
[Species: Sharp-Spine Green Lizard]
[Grade: Rare]
[Level: 48]
[HP: ??????/??????]
''Another [Rare] grade demonic beast but its level is still lower than the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.''
Tang Li Xue''s gaze burned with the desire to get strong. Her current target was to evolve into the [Umon] grade beast as fast as she can and then reach [Rare] grade soonter!
"Sigh... Littless, I need to leave now. Be sure to always careful and take care of yourself well... You should always activate your stealth skill along your way so you can travel safely. Do not summon out Yaya yet since you will attract unwanted attention but you can summon her out after you reach your destination. It should be quite safe there... Goodbye... No! See youter, my beloved littless..." The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard turned its body quickly after it said that and ran toward the Sharp-Spine Green Lizard.
Honestly, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was really afraid to see Tang Li Xue''s unwilling expression and tears. Because if the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard really see that now then it would certainly y the?Sharp-Spine Green Lizard and rebelled against its Lizard n only to kept staying at Tang Li Xue''s side.
"What are you doing with that lowly level beast? Even if you are hungry now, you should search for the stronger prey. At least they will give you more nutrition than that tiny fox." The Sharp-Spine Green Lizard said to the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
"Hahaha... Brother, what are you saying? I only teasing that little fox for a bit since it looks very cute. That''s all. Eating a fox that little will not even fill the gap between my teeth." the Red-Eyes Winged Lizardughed at the Sharp-Spine Green Lizard in a joking manner.
The Sharp-Spine Green Lizard opened its pair of spiky wings and flying followed by the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard also flying behind it.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard squinted its red eyes when it noticed?the Sharp-Spine Green Lizard that flying in front of it did not pay any attention to it right now.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard lightly tapped its scaly forehead with its giant w and used its [Mind Maniption] divine ability to itself.
Chapter 107 - 107: Hero Saves a Damsel in Distress!
Chapter 107 - 107: Hero Saves a Damsel in Distress!
The reason Asura Demon Sect captured the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard before was because they greatly coveted this [Mind Maniption] divine ability.
Although it only works for someone weaker than the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard itself like the cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage or below and like the demonic beasts at the [Umon] grade or below.
However, you could imagine if the Asura Demon Sect managed to tame the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard and used its [Mind Maniption] divine ability to brainwash the Foundation Establishment Stage from the other sects!
The Asura Demon Sect would probably only need a few months to grow into the strongest sects in the entire Lightwind Continent and started to conquer the other continent!
Their ambitious dream was really beautiful but unfortunately, the reality was harsh since the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard hated all humans very much that it rather die than helping them. So they have no other way other than confined it in the end and try every way to coerce it from soft to hard way but all their effort was futile.
That incident happened such a long time ago and all of their current generations almost forgot about the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard [Mind Maniption] divine ability. Only Xiao Hei''s grandfather probably still remembered about it now but it looks like he also already long given up about it.
Actually, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard also never told anyone about its [Mind Maniption] divine ability and it never used it in front of anyone before since it knew this ability would certainly inviting disaster and greed if anyone knew about it including its own Lizard n.
Until now, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard still did not get it how the Asura Demon Sect''s ancestor could know about its [Mind Maniption] divine ability.
After such a long time, The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard finally used its [Mind Maniption] divine ability again and it was to seal Tang Li Xue''s memories about Xiao Hei before.
And now it doing the same thing again to itself but to seal its own memories about Tang Li Xue and it alsopletely erased the part where Tang Li Xue told it about how she could restore the gift she got from the Bi Fang including their experience at that volcano.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was a very cautious beast. It was also always very calm and collected in any situation.
It would never allow itself including any of its closepanions to walk into any dangerous situations without any proper n.
For example when it was helping the Bi Fang against the human armies before and it managed to wipe the human armies in one clean move.
Of course, the incidents like the elemental spirit egg, Yaya and divine treasure rebirth was the exception since it never took Tang Li Xue''s ability to cause trouble in its calction.
It would be good if the elders from Lizard n only interrogate the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard orallyter but it was afraid that they would use forceful way to force it to talk by using something like Soul Scour Technique, Hypnosis Technique, etc.
So that was why the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard decided to use its [Mind Maniption] divine ability to erased all parts about Tang Li Xue''s divine treasure along with any clues and all scenes rted to it in its mind permanently.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard also put the very tight seal in its memories about Tang Li Xue so from now on the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard would forget everything about Tang Li Xue.
Of course, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard also put the timer on the seal so it would unseal by itself after one year passed from today and if someone using some kind of spell that affecting its mind in this period of time, the seal wouldpletely erasing all of its memories about Tang Li Xue permanently too.
''Sigh... I can only hope everything is not as bad as I thought it to be.'' The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard sighed in its mind.
The Lizard n was different from Asura Demon n. The Lizard n has the least memberspared to the other n like Firebird n, Wolf n, or Foxes Homes so their rtionship with each other was pretty solid.
Unfortunately, greed was like a very contagious disease and it could infect anyone no matter it was humans or beasts and no matter how strong they were.
Moreover, the Lizard n always called themselves the Dragon n descendants but they did not have any items to prove it so it made sense if they were going crazy now and started to use any means just to possessing this divine treasure from the true Dragon n.

.
Tang Li Xue was looking at the fake dragon''s silhouette that vanished after soaring onto the skies.
Tang Li Xue''s mood right now was really gloomy and depressed.
In fact, she already started crying but the reasons were notpletely like what the fake dragon was thinking before.
20% of her sadness and tears were because of her separation with the fake dragon.
40% of it was because she just lost a high level [Rare] grade mount and she was unable to stop it since she was too weak.
Thest 40% of her tears were because of the distance she needs to travel to reach her destination.
She would only need at least two days to reach it by riding on the fake dragon but now she needs another week since she would travel there using her own feet now.
''Sigh... I am alone again... It is like I am returning to Moonlight Forest again... Oh well, let''s hope that I will meet with many friends for my own species when I reach that Foxes Home!''
The skies turned darker when the sun started to set, Tang Li Xue looked around and found out that she was alone now in the middle of the unknown wilderness.
The loneliness and sadness flooded her heart and mind. She was already starting to miss the talkative mommy, the fake dragon and... and... uuhhh... eh?
''Again... I feel like I forgot someone important but who? Sigh... Let''s continue my journey now so I can arrive there earlier!''
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and her tiny silver figure vanished into thin air.
Tang Li Xue tried to use her newly upgraded skill from [Sprint], [Blink].
The result of this skill surpassed her expectation.
The moment Tang Li Xue activated her [Blink] skill, her transparent figure moved more than ten meters ahead in a blink of eyes.
''Woah! This [Blink] skill is so awesome!''
Of course, the current [Blink] skill also had its own pro and conpared to the previous [Sprint].
The [Blink] skill used far more stamina than [Sprint].
This [Blink] skill tailored more for battle while the previous [Sprint] skill tailored more for traveling far away.
This [Blink] skill was also harder to control so Tang Li Xue must train herself harder to be able to use it proficiently in the middle of the fierce battle.
Imagine if she intended to dodge a lethal attack using this [Blink] but identally ended up approaching it instead?!
Tang Li Xue decided to use the [Blink] repeatedly to travel so she could use it more proficiently.
When her stamina ran out, she decided to hide in the thick bushes and canceled her [Ethereal Form] then took some sleep for a while before continuing her journey again after her stamina fully recover.
When the fake dragon, touched her forehead before, it did not do it only to tease her but also to transfer the map of this area and where she must heading directly into her mind so she would never get lost on her way here.
Tang Li Xue did not stop her journey even in the middle of the night and she only took some short nap between it to recover her stamina in the middle of some thick bushes.
The next morning, Tang Li Xue felt really starving after running in her [Ethereal Form] for an entire night so she decided to hunt some prey for her breakfast.
[Species: Swift Rabbit]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 16]
[HP: 8,500/8,500]
Tang Li Xue''s first prey was a pretty big white rabbit with a pair of ck eyes and long ears. It was eating some fresh morning grasses now.
''Swift Rabbit? Hmmm... From its name, it should be quite quick butck strength and defense. I must finish it in one clean attack or it would certainly run awayter!''
Tang Li Xue sneaked closer to it using her [Ethereal Form].
She immediately deactivated her [Ethereal Form] when she was close enough and pounced to the Swift Rabbit''s neck.
Tang Li Xue used her [Rip] skill and bit the Swift Rabbit''s neck. Its blood kept pouring out to Tang Li Xue''s mouth as it kept struggling for a few moments but Tang Li Xue refused to let it go until it breathes itsst.
However, before Tang Li Xue could enjoy her prey...
SHAAAAA~~~!!!
Arge metallic colored python jumped down from the nearby tree toward her with its mouth opened wide showing all of its sharp fangs!
[Species: Iron-Backed Python]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 21]
[HP: 17,800/17,800]
''Tsk... Tsk... Tsk... Did you really think that I, Tang Li Xue really did not realize that you were waiting there before?!''
Tang Li Xue used her [Blink] skill with the Swift Rabbit''s neck still in its mouth, her silver tiny figure instantly vanished and reappeared ten meters in front of where she stood before.
The Iron-Backed Python would never give up that easily as it twisted its giant and long body on the mid-air.
Since it could not swallow Tang Li Xue and the Swift Rabbit whole anymore now, it decided to use its body as a giant whip to strike Tang Li Xue!
''Sigh... You are really persistent, aren''t you?! Oh well, since you want to die so badly then I will fulfill your wish!''
Tang Li Xue put the Swift Rabbit on the ground and she wanted to use her [Blink] skill once again.
This time she nned to use her [Rip] and [Sharp w] skills to kill the Iron-Backed Python but before she could do that...
BAAAAAANG~~~!!!
A tiny silhouette kicked the Iron-Backed Python away on the mid-air.
The Iron-Backed Python''s giant body flew more than ten meters away and its head smashed hard onto the other tree.
Tang Li Xue could not see her helper clearly since the scene before happened under the sun and she was still on the ground right now.
But after the tiny silhouettended flipped its body and gracefully onto the ground, Tang Li Xue widened her eyes and dropped her jaw in shock, surprise, and disbelief when she saw her helper.
A tiny furry creature wore a red scarf and a straw hat stood gantly in front of her.
Chapter 108 - 108: A Super Clingy Creature!
Chapter 108 - 108: A Super Clingy Creature!
The tiny creature in front of Tang Li Xue has ck fur and two eye-catching tails. Although, the ck-furred creature was tiny but it still a little bit bigger than Tang Li Xue''s cat-like size.
However, Tang Li Xue could not see its head clearly because it wore a round straw hat to cover it.
''This is... If I am not mistaken, this creature''s species should be a cat si..''
[Species: Fox Sith (Two-Tailed)]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 21]
[HP: 13,600/13,600]
''....... Fox... Sith?! Not a Cat Sith?! What the hell is Fox Sith anyway?! Why I never heard any story about it before?!''
The Fox Sith raised its straw hat a bit revealing a pair of green eyes and staring at Tang Li Xue for a moment.
Tang Li Xue curiously stared back at the Fox Sith in front of her.
Then Fox Sith''s mouth curved upward then winked flirtatiously to Tang Li Xue...
Tang Li Xue almost slipped and fell down. Her body shivered as she felt a chill ran down on his spine.
Iron-Backed Python shook its head to clear its dizziness.
It looked around and found its attacker, the Fox Sith, and charged angrily toward it.
The Fox Sith turned its tiny body and easily dodged the Iron-Backed Python''s attack. Its movement was so elegant, fluidic, and rxed as if it was not fighting a life or death battle but dancing around happily.
Tang Li Xue observed the fight between the Fox Sith and the Iron-Backed Python carefully.
Previously, she also always observed how the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard fought but she could not use it as a reference to form her own battle style since their advantages and weaknesses even their body size was differing too much.
However, it was different now since the one who fighting in front of her was the fox species too just like her.
Tang Li Xue was very sure that she could incorporate this Fox Sith''s battle style into her own styleter.
Iron-Backed Python kept attacking the Fox Sith sometimes it wanted to bit the Fox Sith with its sharp fang, sometimes it wanted to use its long body to coil around the Fox Sith, but all of its efforts were futile.
The Fox Sith dodged all of Iron-Backed Python in elegant and rxed manners using the most minimum effort. It would turn its body, somersault, or bow a bit to dodge the Iron-Backed Python''s attacks.
Although, the Fox Sith was a bit weird in Tang Li Xue''s opinion but its fighting style was truly impressive.
Even Tang Li Xue with all of her massive stats thanks to all her innate divine abilities that tripled all her stats would lose to this Fox Sith if she fought against it now.
Of course, she would only lose if she did not use her me of Pride or doing Divine Possession with Yaya. If she was using both of them at once, Tang Li Xue was very confident that she would definitely crush the Fox Sith in one or two moves.
The Fox Sith yawned after dodging all of the Iron-Backed Python''s attacks for many seconds. It decided to counterattack now and finish this battle soon.
Tang Li Xue still diligently observed their fight while munching on the Swift Rabbit''s meat she killed before.
PPPPSSSSHHHH~~!!!
The Fox Sith used its sharp ws and scratched right at the Iron-Backed Python''s eyes! The Fox Sith''s attack was so clean, precise, and fast that Tang Li Xue could only see its pawpletely vanished for a moment. The timing was also perfect that Iron-Backed Python would never be able to dodge it.
Iron-Backed Python''s blood sprayed out everywhere as it roared loudly.
The Fox Sith crouched, its position was like the fast runner''s stance that ready to dash on the track.
BWOOOOSH~~!!!
The Fox Sith tiny ck figure turned blurry the moment it moves!
Puff... Puff... Puff... Puff... Puff...
The deep scratch marks began to appear on the Iron-Backed Python''s longrge body and it kept increasing at astonishing speed!
The Iron-Backed Python that lost its vision did not even have any way to react or defend itself against the Fox Sith''s continuously fierce attacks.
The Iron-Backed Python could only try its luck and strike everything around it blindly hoping that one of its attacks luckilynded at the Fox Sith''s tiny body and crushing the Fox Sith to death.
However, how could the Fox Sith make that kind of rookie mistake?
The Fox Sith sneered at the Iron-Backed Python''s silly effort to struggle and it even increased its speed more while still easily avoiding all of the Iron-Backed Python''s random attacks.
The Iron-Backed Python had a huge body although it still not as big as the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard but The Fox Sith''s several attacks did not deal enough damage to y it.
But if the Fox Sith''s several attacks were not enough to kill the Iron-Backed Python then it will keep increasing its attacks to tens or even hundreds until it managed to kill the Iron-Backed Python.
A few minutester, the Iron-Backed Python finally lied down on the ground lifelessly. Its huge long body filled with countless deep long bloody scars caused by Fox Sith''s sharp w''s attacks.
The Fox Sith pushed the Iron-Backed Python toward where the beautiful silver fox stood before, it nned to give the Iron-Backed Python back to Tang Li Xue but the beautiful silver fox was already nowhere to be seen anymore.
The Fox Sith turned its head around to search that silver fox but it still failed to find her.
AWOOO~~ AWO~~ AWOOOOO~~!!!
The Fox Sith started to howl anxiously and ran around the forest to find its beloved silver fox. It even tried to find her using her scent but it was futile. It was as if that beautiful silver fox was only an illusion.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue actually only activated her [Ethereal Form] after finished her breakfast, she still stood near there to watch the fierce battle between the Fox Sith and the Iron-Backed Python and only continue her journey after the battle finished.
Tang Li Xue continued her journey with her usual routine. Tang Li Xue kept using her [Blink] skill repeatedly to travel while still in her [Ethereal Form] and she would take a quick nap to recover her stamina in the middle of some thick bushes if she was tired.
Tang Li Xue''s mind did not remain idle as well. She still kept pondering about the Fox Sith''s battle style and how to incorporate it with all her divine abilities.
''Oh well... I already got some rough ideas about it. What is left for me to do is to hone it in the real battle experience!''
However, when Tang Li Xue stopped for a while and canceled her [Ethereal Form] to hunt some prey for her lunch, Tang Li Xue met again with the ck-furred Fox Sith.
The Fox Sith even brought a brown roon on its mouth and gave it to Tang Li Xue.
''What is this fox really wants from me? Uh... you want to give this roon to me?''
Tang Li Xue quizzically stared at the Fox Sith and pointed the brown roon in front of her with her paw then pointed her paw at herself.
The Fox Sith nodded its head rapidly enthusiastically while it kept staring at Tang Li Xue full of fondness. Its green eyes glittering like a star and made Tang Li Xuepletely ufortable under its stare.
Tang Li Xue frowned in displeasure and pushed the brown roon back to the Fox Sith while shook her head then turned her body to find the other prey.
However, not long after that, the Fox Sith caught up with Tang Li Xue, and this time it put a white rabbit in front of her.
''Wha... Don''t tell me this ck fox fell for me? Pffft... This is the first time someone trying to woo me even if I am counting my previous life too... and it is a fox! Sigh...''
Tang Li Xue really wanted tough and cry at the same time when she remembered this fact.
Tang Li Xue pushed the white rabbit back to the ck Fox Sith and shook her head again refusing its gift like before.
But the ck Fox Sith did not give up and kept doing it again and again.
A grey mouse, a green snake, a red squirrel...
Tang Li Xue refused everything the ck Fox Sith gave to her but it still did not give up and Tang Li Xue started to lose her patience.
In the end, Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] after took her meal and made the ck Fox Sith losing her track again.
This incident happened continuously for a few days and Tang Li Xue did not even know how could that ck Fox Sith find her each time she canceled her [Ethereal Form] to eat her meal.
''Eh... Wait a minute... Sigh... how could I be so dumb?! We are clearly heading to the same ce, that Foxes Home... so that fox did not find me or stalk me... but I don''t want to slow down my pace.''
Tang Li Xue''s expression also turned serious when she remembered that she would reach her destination in a few days.
''I am really afraid that this crimson orb would be noticed by some old strong foxes if I try to investigate its effect there and who knows if I manage to trigger something and it draws attention from some strong old foxes then they decided to rob it from me. I must try to find out all of its effects now before I enter that ce!''
Tang Li Xue opened her skill window list in her system and searching for some useful skills to analyze or appraise the crimson orb''s effect and how to use it.
''Hmmm... This [Appraisal] looks useful and it only costs 1 Skill Point. BUY!''
Chapter 109 - 109: New Divine Ability!
Chapter 109 - 109: New Divine Ability!
[You have gained Appraisal ability!]
Ding!
[Identify (Mastered), Herbalism (Mastered), Appraisal (Lv1) can bebined into Divine Ability [All Knowing Eyes (Basic)] with cost 20 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''What? A new divine ability? All-Knowing Eyes... Woah, sound so cool and powerful!''
Tang Li Xue started to pondering, should shebine it now orter after her [Appraisal] reached Mastered level?
''Let''s try if this [Appraisal] could identify the crimson orb first... but first... I must find some secluded ce and dig a small cave.''
Tang Li Xue found a secluded ce inside the forest with some dense bushes under the shady tree.
Tang Li Xue immediately dug a deep hole inside the dense bushes near the shady tree.
There was the hard surface under the soft soil but that was not a problem for Tang Li Xue since she could store the stones and soil into her space pouch so she could easily make the deep cave by herself.
She nned to make a small cave before but she felt that it was too cramped and stuffy so she made it bigger and bigger ording to her preference.
In the end, she actually made the cave as big as the one she found in the volcano before so she could move aroundfortably and she was very satisfied with the deeprge cave she made by her own paws.
The cave entrance was perfectly concealed and Tang Li Xue was quite sure that no one can find her there including that annoying super clingy ck fox.
Tang Li Xue covered the cave entrance with some stones and soil that she stored in her space pouch before.
After that, she entered deeper into the cave and she used her deep-blue me to illuminate the dark cave.
Tang Li Xue impatiently took out the crimson orb from her space pouch and used her [Appraisal] to examine it.
[Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]
[Description: ?????]
[Effect 1: ???]
[Effect 2: ???]
[Effect 3: ???]
[Effect 4: ???]
[Effect 5: ???]
[Effect 6: ???]
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment when her [Appraisal] skill only managed to identify its name.
However, she quickly recovered and jumping around in happiness when she saw the crimson orb domineering name.
''Woah! It even has 6 effects! As I expected from Dragon n... wait a minute... this is not a mere Dragon n''s Divine Treasure! This is a Dragon King''s Divine Treasure so its level should be far surpassing the usual Divine Treasure level! Uwehehehe... I can''t wait for it any longer!''
Tang Li Xue already considered it all carefully and she decided to use her Skill Points tobine her skills into [All Knowing Eyes] divine ability.
Because she would not have any chance to tinkering this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] after she entered that Foxes Home since she was too afraid if someone strong secretly peeked at her without her realizing in that ce.
''Sigh... Better safe than sorry... it is only 20 Skill Points anyway. YES!''
[You have gained Divine Ability (All-Knowing Eyes (Basic))!]
''Aih... I only have 97 Skill Points left now! I must use it more sparingly from now on since I could not level up until I evolve.''
Tang Li Xue turned her attention back to [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] and activated her new divine ability, the basic [All Knowing Eyes].
''Please... please... please... hopefully this really works! God! Buddha! Please!''
[Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]
[Description: The Holy-Rank Divine Treasure belongs to the strongest of four Dragon Kings, the Sun Dragon King. This pearl is the culmination of its lifetime cultivation and effort but it shattered when the Sun Dragon King self-destructed itself inside the God''s Battlefield.]
[Effect 1: Auto refining, purifying, and strengthening any kind of me. elerate its growth and cultivation.]
[Effect 2: Storing the essence of Sun Dragon King''s me, Pure Yang Sun me.]
[Effect 3: Projecting all of the Sun Dragon King''s memories and experience into the owner''s mind.]
[Effect 4: ???]
[Effect 5: ???]
[Effect 6: ???]
Even with her basic [All Knowing Eyes], the current Tang Li Xue only managed to see three of the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] effects but it was already more than enough to make Tang Li Xue almost fainted in happiness.
''Oh My God! Holy-rank... divine treasure! The strongest of four Dragon Kings! Hmm... So this first effect is the one that the me of Pride coveting. Tsk... It is really suitable for it. The second effect is... Woah! Pure Yang Sun me! So I can get another me? And the third effect... eh... Projecting all of the Sun Dragon King''s memories and experience into the owner''s mind? What does it mean?''
Although Tang Li Xue knew that this divine treasure was super precious and OP but she still did not get any clue on how to use it from the item''s description at all so she decided to consult it with her the blue Phoenix of Pride.
BWOOOSH~~!!!
The blue Phoenix of Pride opened its crimson eyes and flew out from Tang Li Xue''s Dantian the moment she thought to summon it out.
Tang Li Xue held the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] on its paw and show it to the blue Phoenix of Pride while exined all of the three effects to it.
She also told the blue Phoenix of Pride that she wanted to extract the Sun Dragon King''s me, Pure Yang Sun me so she could use it like how she used the me of Pride.
The blue Phoenix of Pride stared back at Tang Li Xue full of disdain as if it was looking at a mentally retarded person but it quickly sighed in resignation and exin it patiently to Tang Li Xue.
How could the Sun Dragon King''s me be used by any random weak creature like Tang Li Xue?
It only took a tiny bit of Pure Yang Sun me''s aura to erase Tang Li Xue''s body and soulpletely so trying to use it with her current level was just a mere foolish dream, it was like how a human''s baby dreamed of using the sun fire to cook. Completely unrealistic!
However, the blue Phoenix of Pride immediately told her its method.
The best solution to use [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] ording to the blue Phoenix of Pride was to give this crimson orb to it.
Even with the blue Phoenix of Pride''s ability, it would still not be able to consume or eat this holy-rank divine treasure but it could bring this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] with it and entered Tang Li Xue''s Dantian!
So this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] would be stored inside her Dantian from now on and she would never need to worry that she will lose it in the future or someone would take it from her since no one would know or detect it that she stored it inside her Dantian.
The second advantage was this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]''s first effect would continue to working and strengthening the blue Phoenix of Pride non-stop as long as it was staying inside Tang Li Xue''s Dantian.
The third advantage was that Tang Li Xue could slowly tinker with it and find how to use its other effects anytime and anyce she wants without anyone knows.
This was what everyone called hitting three birds with one stone!
Tang Li Xue had strongly supported this n but before that, she also asked the blue Phoenix of Pride whether this n would affect her body in a bad way.
The blue Phoenix of Pride shook its head and exined that this n would temper her body inside out making it grow stronger continuously at a faster rate and expelling her impurities bit by bit.
The benefit she would get would not only just that but much more, not at all inferior with the benefit the Phoenix of Pride would get.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes burning with the intense desire to get strong so she immediately epted the blue Phoenix of Pride''s n without any hesitation.
The blue Phoenix of Pride ate the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] but it did not actually really consume it. The blue Phoenix of Pride only stored the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] inside its me body so it could bring the crimson pearl into Tang Li Xue''s Dantian and release it out there.
BWOOOOOOOOSH~~!!!
The moment the blue Phoenix of Pride swallowed the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl], its deep-blue me body was set aze by the dark gold mes!
This dark-gold me waspletely at different levelspared with the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s Nirvana me.
Tang Li Xue could faintly feel the extreme danger feelinging out from it.
YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~~!!!
Even the blue Phoenix of Pride was squirming and screaming in pain when the dark-gold me was burning its deep-blue me body.
The scene in front of Tang Li Xue''s eyes right now was truly strange, a deep-blue Phoenix emitting the intense heat was actually set on fire by the dark-gold me!
The blue Phoenix of Pride closed its crimson eyes and gritted its beak to withstand the unimaginable pain right now.
A few secondster, it opened its crimson eyes back and staring at Tang Li Xue.
''Uhhh... What? Why are you staring at me like that? Wait... Wait a minute... Don''t be too hasty! I... I changed my mind! I strongly disagree with your n now! Let''s think another... Hei... Hei... STOP! Don''te any closer to me! UAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!''
Tang Li Xue turned her body and tried to escape out from the cave but the burning blue Phoenix of Pride flew toward Tang Li Xue with the faster speed and entered back into her Dantian.
The blue Phoenix of Pride spitted out the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] from its mouth and the dark-gold me that burning its me body alsopletely vanished.
The [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] was floating at the center of Tang Li Xue''s Dantian now.
The loud dragon roar echoed from the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] as the heat in Tang Li Xue''s Dantian kept increasing rapidly.
The extreme heat started to travel through all Tang Li Xue''s blood vessels, acupuncture, meridians, and internal organs tempering all of it from inside out bit by bit.
Although, it was very beneficial for Tang Li Xue but the pain she has to bear was unbearable. It was as if the me cooked her alive from inside her body.
-3864, -3855, -3848, -3325, -3301, -3287.....
Tang Li Xue panicked when she saw her HP dropped so rapidly and she immediately activated her [Golden Body] divine ability to reduce the damage she received.
-2644, -2625, -2601, -2588, -2553, -2517.....
''Oh God... this situation is really simr to when I assimte with me of Pride before! But I don''t have any more [Recovery Pill] now! Is this really the end of my life?''
Tang Li Xue did not realize it since she did not check her damage log but because she had injuries, Tang Li Xue''s [Self-Healing] ability also started to recover her HP.
[Self-Healing] ability kept recovering 1% of her maximum HP every 10 seconds automatically.
While the effect from her [Golden Body] divine ability effect boosted it further by 100%! (Increase health regeneration by 100%)
Her martial soul [Recovery Buff] already grew stronger too and its buff effect doubled from before.
[Recovery Buff]: Increased the overall recovery stats by 30%.
+1644, +1644, +1644, +1644, +1644.....
However, the rate and the amount of her HP decreasing were still faster and greater than her HP recovery rate.
Chapter 110 - 110: Protector!
Chapter 110 - 110: Protector!
''GUAAAAAARRRRGGGHHHH... PAIN! PAIN! SO PAINFUL!''
Tang Li Xue''s white silver fur turned dark red as her blood kept flowing out from her every pore along with every impurity inside her tiny body.
The dark red blood kept dripping onto the ground below her feet, painting it with the same color with her blood but every time the dark red blood touched the ground it kept making sizzling sounds.
Ding!
[Self-Healing skill has increased to Mastered]
[Self-Healing skill already reached the Mastered level. Do you want to upgrade it to Regeneration with 5 Skill Points?]
''Right at the time when I need it the most! Of course, YES!''
[Self-Healing ability upgraded to Regeneration!]
[Self-Healing] skill disappeared from Tang Li Xue''s status window and changed into [Regeneration (Lv1)].
However, Tang Li Xue''s heart dropped in disappointment and frustration when she found that the amount of her HP recover did not increase at all from her system''s damage log.
+1644, +1644, +1644, +1644, +1644.....
''Urrrggghhh... Is this skill upgrade really that useless? Eh... but... isn''t the rate of my HP recovery got faster than before?''
After observing it for a while, Tang Li Xue managed to find that this [Regeneration] ability effect was still healing her HP gradually like before and the amount also still 1% of her maximum HP but the recovery rate was twice faster than before.
Regeneration: Recover 1% of the user''s maximum HP every 5 seconds.
Although, the skill improvement was very good since it enhanced Tang Li Xue''s HP recovery twice from before but unfortunately, it was still not quite enough to counter the damage over the time she got from the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in her Dantian.
-2344, -2315, -2289, -2271, -2253, -2215.....
HP: 19,846/63,200
Tang Li Xue did not realize it but the damage over the time she received kept decreasing bit by bit just like when the me of Pride tempered her body in the Elder Lin''s safe room before.
Tang Li Xue felt that her consciousness started to fade away and her eyelid grew heavier every second.
''No! No! No! If I fell unconscious now then my [Golden Body] would be canceled! Without its damage reduction, elemental damage resistance, and health regeneration, my death would be certain!''
However, Tang Li Xue''s body already reached its utmost limit even with the help of her [Regeneration] skill to counter the damage she received and Tang Li Xue would fell into aa when her HP dropped under 10%.
BAAAAAANG~~!!!
Someone was forcefully broke into Tang Li Xue''s handmade cave in this crucial moment.
Thest thing she saw before she closing her eyes was a vague ck shadow stood in front of her when her weak body lied down limply on the red ground full of her own blood but Tang Li Xue could not see it clearly since the cave was too dark without the me of Pride illuminating it.
.....
...
.
The Fox Sith continued its journey to the Foxes Home but its heart was quite disappointed since it could not travel beside its beloved fox with beautiful silver fur.
However, its heart held a great expectation since it was very sure that the silver fox it loved so much also heading toward the same ce as it was.
When the Fox Sith reached the forest periphery, it identally smelt the pungent smell of blood.
The Fox Sith did not really care about it.?Its stomach was still really full since it already ate some prey an hour ago.
The Fox Sith ignored it and walked away but some thoughts shed in its mind. What if that blood smell wasing from the beautiful silver fox''s prey? Did it mean that it could meet with the beautiful silver fox again?
The Fox Sith''s green eyes were glittering like a pair of stars when it thought about the beautiful silver fox.
The Fox Sith quickly changed its mind and ran excitedly toward where that pungent smell of blood wasing from.
Its two ck tails swung back and forth excitedly following its current mood.
The Fox Sith managed to reach the secluded side of the forest near the periphery. There were some dense bushes under the shady tree but after the Fox Sith searched for a while, it did not find any blood or dead body here.
''So where did that pungent smell of blood came from?''
The Fox Sith thought for a while and deduced that there should be a hidden cave here so it carefully traced it with its sharp sense of smell.
The Fox Sith did not use its sharp w but its powerful feet to kick the ce where the smell of blood came from.
BAAAAAANG~~!!!
The thick soil that covered the cave entrance crumbled apart under the Fox Sith''s powerful kick.
The Fox Sith entered the dark cave full of vignt.
The Fox Sith was an adventurer so it never stayed in one ce for too long and it always faced many kinds of dangers.
It also already faced too many ambushes in its life that it was already grown tired of it.
All of Fox Sith senses'' sharpness already trained and enhanced to an unbelievable level.
However, the one in front of its eyes right now after it entered the dark cave was not the fearful opponent it was always facing in its adventure before but the dying beautiful silver fox.
''OH NO! God, please don''t do this! This is the first time I fell in love in my life after I adventured for so long...''
The Fox Sith''s expression filled with horror, shock, and sadness the moment it saw the dying silver fox bathed in blood until the ground around her also painted with blood.
The Fox Sith thought that the beautiful silver fox should be dead by now since the amount of blood on the ground should be more than the amount of blood in her body.
In fact, without the [Regeneration] skill that kept recovering her blood and the [Golden Body] divine ability that increased the health regeneration by 100%, Tang Li Xue would already dead by now.
But the Fox Sith still refused to give up and hastily checked the beautiful silver fox''s condition.
The Fox Sith sighed in relief when it felt that the beautiful silver fox was still breathing but it kept getting weaker and weaker every second.
The Fox Sith took out a tiny red fruit like a red berry from its leather pouch that was hidden under its red scarf and stuffed it into the beautiful silver fox''s mouth.
This tiny red fruit was a miracle fruit that could recover injuries in one night. The Fox Sith got this miracle fruit with great difficulty and through countless dangers in its adventure to Ghastly Forest.
At that time, the Fox Sith always felt the reward it received that time was far too lesspared with all the dangers it was faced.
Anyone can tell from the Fox Sith''s battle style, it was the type to finish its opponent as quick as possible before it received any wound. If its opponent was too strong then it only needs to run away since its speed was so fast, no opponent could catch it until now.
In short, the Fox Sith never received any significant wounds other than a few scratches it identally got from the sharp twigs until now with its speed battle style.
However, the Fox Sith was very happy right now. It felt all the dangers it was faced before was definitely worth it if this tiny red fruit could save its beloved beautiful silver fox.
This tiny red fruit''s true effect was actually enhancing the consumer''s recovery ability by many folds for a few hours.
So currently, Tang Li Xue''s [Regeneration] ability enhanced by several times and it made her HP recovery rate could exceed the damage over the time she received from the tempering effect of the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in her Dantian.
Tang Li Xue''s HP started to recover bit by bit thanks to the Fox Sith tiny red fruit''s efficacy.
Unfortunately, the creatures invited here by the pungent smell of Tang Li Xue''s blood were not only the Fox Sith and they would not be patient enough to wait for Tang Li Xue to recover before trying to eat her alive.
The Fox Sith felt really annoyed since it still did not have enough time to admire the beautiful silver fox''s fur closely.
The Fox Sith stood up gantly and turned its tiny ck body to facing the cave entrance while protecting the unconscious silver fox behind its back.
The Fox Sith curved its mouth upward and waved its ws to provoke the group of ck crows on the cave entrance.
More than ten of ferocious hungry ck crows flew toward the Fox Sith. Their speed was quite fast that it leaving several ck streaks on its flight path.
The Fox Sith did not get intimidated at all by ten or so ck crows it was currently facing. It slowly put its crouching stance and its ck furry figure instantly vanished the moment it dashed to meet the group of ck crows.
sh... sh... sh... sh... sh...
The Fox Sith cold sharp ws glinted in the dark cave as it swung its sharp ws several times in a row.
Several hungry ck crows shredded into many tiny pieces as their dark pungent blood sttered everywhere in the dark cave.
The Fox Sith twisted its slender waist once more and swung its sharp ws again toward another group of ck crows.
More than ten ferocious ck crows turned into mince meats under the Fox Sith''s sharp ws in a few seconds.
The Fox Sith swiped its sharp ws to the ground and the ck crows'' blood stuck on its ws stter to the ground.
However, the Fox Sith''s battle to protect its beloved one was far from over as the several other hungry creatures entered the dark cave again.
Chapter 111 - 111: Awakening!
Chapter 111 - 111: Awakening!
The most unfavorable situation for the speed battle style user like the Fox Sith was getting surrounded by its enemies.
But there were many ways for someone very swift like the Fox Sith to avoid this situation. For example, it could pretend to escape first before its enemies could surround it then killing the enemies that pursuit it one by one.
Unfortunately, the poor Fox Sith was forced to face the situation it hated the most right now but it could not pretend to escape like usual since it must protect the unconscious silver fox behind it.
However, there was no fear or panic in the Fox Sith''s green eyes, only calmness when he was facing the group of hungry wolves that surrounded it.
The Fox Sith growled at the group of hungry wolves as its bloodl.u.s.t exploding out at the same time.
The group of hungry wolves subconsciously took one step back under the Fox Sith''s intense killing intent and they started to hesitate for a moment.
The Fox Sith would never let this chance go! It immediately dashed to the stunned group of hungry wolves and waved its sharp ws several times in session.
The Fox Sith know that it would not be able to kill these hungry wolves in a few attacks like when it was facing the group of ck crows before since these group of wolves was much stronger, faster, and tougher than any ck crows.
The Fox Sith made its decision in an instant and aimed at the wolves'' feet!
PSSSH... PSSSH... PSSSH... PSSSH... PSSSH...
The Fox Sith severed five wolves'' legs in a blink of an eye, its movements were swift and fluidic leaving no room for those wolves to avoid its attacks!
But some of the wolves have quite fast speed, they opened their jaws that full of sharp fangs tried to bite a mouthful of meat from the Fox Sith''s tiny body!
The Fox Sith lowered its tiny body and executing the elegant sliding tackle to dodge the several wolves that trying to bites it.
Several wolves defenseless stomachs exposed above the Fox Sith when it was in its sliding tackle motion.
The Fox Sith twisted its tiny body so its position was facing the wolves'' defenseless stomachs above it then swung its sharp ws as fast as it could to dissecting the wolves'' abdomen.
Puff... Puff... Puff... Puff...
Another four wolves down!
Nine wolves either crippled or killed in only a few seconds!
The Fox Sith''s movement and attack were so fluidic, clean, and fast as if it was already doing this countless time in the past.
''Oh no! They started to aim for my silver beauty! How dare you?!''
The Fox Sith gritted its fangs in anger when it spotted three wolves pounced toward the unconscious silver fox not far from it.
The Fox Sith kicked its feet to the ground and sprinting hastily to where the unconscious silver fox lied down.
Unfortunately, the other wolves would not let the Fox Sith do whatever it wants, four of them quickly blocked its path.
The moment the Fox Sith almost crashed onto the four wolves, it immediately jumped above their head and easily passed their blockade.
But the Fox Sith did not have enough time to stop the three wolves from attacking its beloved silver fox.
The Fox Sith gritted its sharp fangs in anger and the moment its tiny feet touched the ground, its ck and small figurepletely vanished from everyone''s view.
The Fox Sith instantly decided to dash using all of its might and forcefully crashing its tiny body with the three wolves to stop them from attacking the unconscious silver fox in time.
BAAAAANGGGGG~~!!!
The Fox Sith only crashed hard onto one of the three wolves but like dominos, the three of them crashed onto each other in the end and flew three meters backward.
The Fox Sith''s tiny body also bounced backward after the crash, it was colliding violently onto the cave''s wall behind it and leaving the deep crack on the wall.
The Fox Sith groaned in pain and shook its head to clear its dizziness as its tiny ck body sliding downward.
The other four wolves that blocked its path before took this chance and each of them tearing some fleshes from the Fox Sith''s shoulder and stomach.
The Fox Sith howled in pain and it immediately counterattacked with its sharp ws aimed toward the eyes of the two wolves that tear its shoulder''s flesh.
PSSSH... PSSSH...
The Fox Sith''s sharp ws managed to blind the two wolves'' eyes but the fight still far from over when the other two wolves joined with the other three wolves to attack it.
The Fox Sith''s speed dropped significantly because of the injuries it suffered now and it was also very dizzy since its wounds kept bleeding and made itcked suffer anemia.
Unfortunately, the Fox Sith did not have Tang Li Xue''s [Regeneration] skill to heal its wound or resupply its blood.
''Is this the end? Sigh... To think I would fail to protect my first love at this moment... It seems my battle instinct has turned dull after not fighting for some time...''
The five angry wolves bared its sharp fangs to the heavily injured Fox Sith and pounced to it at once.
The five angry wolves were afraid that the Fox Sith would recover some of its energy so they nned to finish it quickly.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
Therge dragon w made from the condensed deep-blue mes smashed the five hungry wolves that tried to attack Fox Sith to the ground and turned them into nothingness!
The Fox Sith raised its blurry vision tried to catch a glimpse at the one who helped it.
It managed to saw a beautiful fox with silver-white fur stood proudly in front of it bathing in the deep-blue me. All the dirt and blood on its pure white silver fur already burned to nothingness by that extremely hot deep-blue me so it looks so pure and untainted.
''Sigh... really... so... beautiful... ''
The Fox Sith closed its eyes with a calm gentle smile stered on its face. It felt that thest scene in front of its eyes was more than worthy enough for it to sacrifice its life.
.....
...
.
Back to a few seconds ago...
Tang Li Xue''s body trembled a bit when she started to regain her consciousness.
All her wounds were cured now thanks to the red fruit that the Fox Sith gave to her, which enhanced her [Regeneration] by several times.
Tang Li Xue''s enhanced [Regeneration] skill finally managed to ovee the damage over the time she got from the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] and her HP also regenerated to full now.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her eyes and the scene in front of her eyes stunned her greatly.
The three wolves pounced swiftly toward her baring their sharp fangs onto her!
Tang Li Xue tried to move her body to dodge but she felt her body was still weak and numb.
''Damn it! These annoying little wolves! How dare they attack me when I still unconscious?! And... Why my [Conceal] passive skill did not work?''
Tang Li Xue''s [Conceal] passive skill was working but it only covered the smell of blood on Tang Li Xue''s body, not the pungent smell of blood on the ground below her!
Right when the wolves'' sharp fangs almost touched Tang Li Xue''s spine, a blurry ck figure jumped in front of her and crashed onto the three wolves to save her!
The blurry ck figure flew backward after the violent crash and collided on the cave''s hard wall then the several other wolves tear some fleshes from its body when its mind still flooded by the dizziness.
When Tang Li Xue saw the scene in front of her, the great rage was bubbling in her heart and invaded its mind!
The unimaginable anger even managed to put a tiny crack on the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s seal in her mind!
The scene of the back of the human figure that always wearing ck clothes started to ovep with the ck fox figure in front of her eyes!
BWOOOOOOOSSH~~~!!!
Tang Li Xue slowly stood up as the deep-blue me rising out from the deepest part of her body!
''The one who dares to attack my person... DIEEEE~!!!''
Tang Li Xue raised her left paw and swung it down violently!
The deep-blue me on her body instantly condensed into the left dragon w and swung down to like Tang Li Xue paw''s movement!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
The five wolves that attacked the ck fox turned into nothingness the moment they touched the dragon w made from the condensed deep-blue me.
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief too. She raised her left paw and kept staring at it dumbfounded.
''Wh... What is happening? What the hell is that? New ability?''
Tang Li Xue tried to control the deep-blue me but different from before where she barely could control it, she could easily control the me of pride now to the point of perfection.
The feeling was too wonderful as if she was controlling her own fingers!
Tang Li Xue wanted to open her own status window to check her current status but she still decided to suppress her curiosity and ran approaching the heavily wounded Fox Sith in front of her.
Tang Li Xue checked Fox Sith''s condition.
The Fox Sith was still breathing but its condition was not good.
Its wounds were quite severe but the main problem now was that it kept bleeding nonstop.
Tang Li Xue was having a great headache now since she did not know how to perform first aid and all of her [Recovery Pill] was already long used up!
Chapter 112 - 112: Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline!
Chapter 112 - 112: Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline!
Tang Li Xue had two choices to save the Fox Sith now.
The first choice, she could use her [Sub-Profession Package] and selected [Physician] as her sub-profession but she did not want to be a [Physician]!
The reason Tang Li Xue still did not use this [Sub-Profession Package] until now because she still hesitated to choose between [Alchemist] and [Inscriptionist].
If she became an alchemist then she could concoct as many pills as she wants with her own hands... err... paws in the future! Her path for leveling up would be smoother since she only needs to find the ingredientster.
But ording to the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard, the profession capable of making the Spirit Cannon and the Steel Warship like what fatty uncle has was an inscriptionist.
The profession that makes the most money in this Immortal World was not an alchemist but actually an inscriptionist!
It was true that the one that crafted the Spirit Cannon and the Steel Warship was not the inscriptionist but the crafter or cksmith.
But all items without runes carved onto it were the same as the car without its engine or hairdryer without the machine inside it, no more than a pile of garbage.
The inscriptionist''s job was to carve the runes to the items, it was the same as putting the engines into cars or motorbikes.
Almost all items in Immortal World need the inscriptionist to carve the runes into it like flying swords, talismans, protection amulets, Spirit Cannon, even spirit stones powered carriages like the steel warship, chariot, even the protection system in the building and safe room like what Tang Li Xue saw at Elder Lin''s residence!
Heck... Tang Li Xue could even make a flying car, a fighting jet, or flying broom if she really became an inscriptionist!
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to put her sub-profession choice on hold again since she could not even hold the inscriptionist''s pen properly with her paws right now.
Tang Li Xue''sst choice was to find some life-saving pills in Elder Lin''s spatial ring.
''Hopefully, I can find something useful in this spatial ring... This is the spatial ring from the renowned alchemist in that demon sect after all, right?''
Tang Li Xue pulled out Elder Lin''s spatial ring from her spatial pouch.
Usually, spatial storage items could never be able to store other spatial storage items but this spatial pouch she got from the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was different. It could actually store other spatial storage items such as Elder Lin''s spatial ring inside it!
''Sigh... little guy, please hang on for a minute! I will find something to save you.''
Tang Li Xue began to rummage all the items inside the Elder Lin''s spatial ring.
The space in Elder Lin''s spatial ring was quite vast since Elder Lin was a very rich alchemist so of course his spatial ring was not too shabby but it was still not as vast as the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s spatial pouch.
Tang Li Xue frowned when she find countless of books about alchemist containing alchemist recipes and knowledge. It actually filled 95% of the space inside the spatial ring.
Tang Li Xue groaned in disappointment while thinking: ''What a waste of space?! He should put more precious pills and heavenly herbs inside his spatial ring rather than these piles of papers!''
There was actually an ancient cauldron that almost upied the other 5% of the space. The old ancient cauldron was full of cracks and even missing some legs.
However, Tang Li Xue could felt some extraordinary aura emitting out from this ancient cauldron. Tang Li Xue was very interested in this ancient cauldron.
She was guessing that this ancient cauldron should be the former divine treasure too like her [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl].
Unfortunately, this ck ancient cauldron was unusable now and Tang Li Xue did not have any [Restoration Elixir] left.
Tang Li Xue started to panic when she did not find any pills after she examined ck ancient cauldron but she quickly calmed down herself and carefully searching at every inch in the space inside the spatial ring.
She sighed in relief after she managed to find some pills at the corner of the space, below some stack of the alchemy ingredient books.
[Rejuvenation Pill]
[Effect: Heal the wounds, increase vitality, makes the consumer looks healthier and 20 years younger]
[Side Effect: This pill can only consume once, the second consumption would make the eater''s body function deteriorate and look 20 years older.]
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched a bit when she read the description.
''This is the youthful pill, isn''t it?! Oh well... at least, it said something like healing the wounds so it probably could heal that ck fox wounds and stop its bleeding...''
There were four [Rejuvenation Pills] in the bottle but Tang Li Xue did not dare to feed it all to the Fox Sith at once. She only took one pill out from the bottle and stuffed it into the Fox Sith''s mouth.
''Now I can only wait and pray for it to works. Hmm... Let''s check my current status! Hopefully, I got some great boost in my stats like when I assimted with the me of Pride before!''
Tang Li Xue opened her system and checked her status window.

Tang Li Xue saw some new things disyed on her status window screen.
''Blood... meridian? What the heck is this? Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline?!! Whoah... hahahahaa... It looks like I hit a jackpot and be OP in an instant! Eh... but my status doesn''t increase at all... What a disappointment!''
Although her stats did not increase but she immediately realized that her [Rip] and [Sharp ws] skill was missing from her skill panel but it was reced by two new divine abilities, the [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs]!
Tang Li Xue tried to use the [Sun Dragon ws] and swung her right paw downward.
Arge dragon w made from the condensation of deep-blue me followed her paw''s movement and smashed downward too.
BOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
Therge dragon w vanished after that only leaving a huge crater with the form ofrge dragon w!
''Holysh*t! This... this divine ability is super awesome! Let''s try the other one! [Sun Dragon Fangs]!''
Tang Li Xue opened her mouth then made a movement as if she was biting something and...
ROOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAR~~!!!
Tang Li Xue encased by the thick deep-blue me and it instantly condensed into arge dragon''s head that tearing everything in front of it apart with its big sharp scorching fangs.
The huge chunks of the cave wall in front of Tang Li Xue just vanished only leaving a deep teeth mark as if a big creature bit it.
Tang Li Xue was smiling so wide from ear to ear after she tried her new divine abilities. She was very satisfied with its powerful effect.
Now she felt that her near-death experience before was worth it!
But her mood suddenly turned gloomy when she remembered the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s request to never use her me of Pride in the Foxes Home.
''Doesn''t it mean I cannot show off my true power in that ce? Sigh... so boring!''
Tang Li Xue shuddered a bit when she recalled her near-death experience before.
Although she felt that it was worth it since she got two powerful divine abilities but she still needs to scold the mastermind behind that incident, the blue Phoenix of Pride inside her Dantian!
''Yes, I am doing this to educate the naughty kid! Definitely not to vent my frustration and anger...''
Tang Li Xue consciousness entered her Dantian but she found out that the blue Phoenix of Pride was turned into a cocoon right now!
It actually turned into an egg-like thing as big as a ser ball and covered by the deep-blue me mixed with a bit of dark-gold me.
''Eh... what happened? Is it in the process to evolve? The elemental spirit can evolve too like a beast? Tsk! And here I am still stuck and not evolved yet until now...''
Tang Li Xue decided to held her anger for now and took a peek at the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] that still floating calmly at the center of her Dantian beside the blue Phoenix of Pride''s cocoon.
Tang Li Xue did not dare to touch it but she still inspected it carefully full of curiosity. She sighed in relief after found out that the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] was no longer released that terrifying dark-gold me.
Tang Li Xue was actually really afraid of this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] now. She would have already tried to take this pearl out from her Dantian if not for the two powerful divine abilities she got from it.
Even now she still quite hesitated to let it stay in her Dantian but she has no other choice other than letting it be for now since the blue Phoenix of Pride still remains unconscious in its cocoon.
No one wanted to carry a bomb inside their body and in Tang Li Xue''s mind, this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] was no different than a nuclear bomb. No... The power contained inside it was surely countless times greater than a mere nuclear bomb from the lower ne!
Chapter 113 - 113: Combat Prowess Qualification!
Chapter 113 - 113: Combat Prowess Qualification!
The Fox Sith''s wounds were too severe so even though it already consumed the [Rejuvenation Pill] and its wounds stopped bleeding long ago but it would still need to rest for at least one night.
The pungent smell of blood in the cave became even heavier, it was already spreading everywhere, and kept inviting many hungry [Umon] grade demonic beasts into the cave.
So it was Tang Li Xue''s turn now to guard the unconscious Fox Sith but Tang Li Xue was more than happy to do that since she could unt the two of her new divine abilities'' prowess and practice how to use them properly in battle.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue would not be able to use it again after she arrived at her destination ce since it would expose her me of Pride so this was her only chance to practice it.
That night, Tang Li Xue slew many [Umon] grade demonic beasts... So much that she gave up on counting it after fifty.
Tang Li Xue did not kill some of the demonic beasts with her [Sun Dragon w] and [Sun Dragon Fang] so she could eat it for her dinner and she also did not forget to leave some of it to Fox Sith since it would certainly be starving when it woke upter.
Of course, no [poor] or [Common] grade savage beast dare toe near their cave. In fact, all [poor] or [Common] grade savage beast would immediately run away the moment they saw or sense the demonic beast''s presence.
The next morning, Fox Sith''s tiny ck body shivered a bit and he immediately stood up at the same time as the moment it opened its eyes.
Its green eyes scanned its surroundings full of vignce. Actually, the Fox Sith was never fell so deeply asleep likest night before. It would always keep maintaining 60% of its consciousness when sleeping so it could react instantly the moment someone ambushed it!
The Fox Sith fell into a daze when it saw the beautiful silver fox sat beside it and guarding it for the entire night without rest.
It was extremely touched and its green eyes turned misty. At this moment, the Fox Sith made an oath that this beautiful silver fox would definitely be its only lifepanion and it would be ready to do anything to achieve that!
Tang Li Xue did not know that her choice to protect the Fox Sithst night would bring her endless trouble in the future!
Tang Li Xue calmly looked at the Fox Sith who just woke up from its sleep and pointed at the several preys she gotst night with her right paw signaling Fox Sith to eat it.
The Fox Sith''s mouth curved upward and its green eyes brightened up. It nodded its head repeatedly and ate some rabbit meats and lion meats in front of it happily.
After the Fox Sith finished its meal, Tang Li Xue walked out of the cave while the Fox Sith was still hesitating to follow her or not.
Of course, the Fox Sith wanted to travel with Tang Li Xue so badly but it also afraid that Tang Li Xue would be annoyed or irritated by its presence.
Tang Li Xue stopped for a bit at the cave entrance, she looked back at the Fox Sith and nodded her furry head to the Fox Sith as if approving it to follow her.
''Sigh... He helped me and protected me at the crucial moment yesterday so I can''t just leave it alone and travel there by myself now, am I? Oh well... whatever! My destination is not that far anymore anyway so let''s just let it tag along with me for now.''
The unimaginable happiness was blooming at the Fox Sith''s heart, it felt that its spring has finally arrived!
The Fox Sith hastily follow Tang Li Xue''s step from behind and exit from the cave while grinning from ear to ear like an idiot.
The closer Tang Li Xue and Fox Sith were to their destination, the more foxes kin they met on their way.
''Hm... It looks like not only me and this silly fox that is heading there. Many other foxes are also heading there? But why? Is that ce like... a real home or organization? Oh well... I will find it outter after I arrived there anyway.''
Every time Tang Li Xue looked at Fox Sith, it would always grin foolishly toward her. Its cool and ferocious self was nowhere to be seen so Tang Li Xue started to call Fox Sith as Silly Fox now.
Tang Li Xue could detect some foxes that have evil intent toward her since her beast aura was only at the [Common] grade savage beast now but they immediately deterred by the Fox Sith strong presence.
Do not look down at the Fox Sith because it was always acting silly in front of Tang Li Xue.
It always showed its thick bloodl.u.s.t and strong presence against anyone other than Tang Li Xue and it was more than enough to scare away most of the weaker foxes or beasts.
Even though Tang Li Xue was strong enough to deal with all of them but it still did not wise to fight with all of them since it would slow them down, waste their stamina, and make them need much longer time to reach their destination.
Tang Li Xue nodded in approval while staring at the Fox Sith''s back. She was really d that she made the right choice to let this Silly Fox travel together with her.
RUMBLE... RUMBLE... BOOOOM~~!!!
Thunder kept rumbling and lightning kept shing...
''Tsk... Will it rain soon? Should we look for shelter now?''
Tang Li Xue looked upward but the scene above her was making her truly baffled since it was really strange.
The skies above her were still bright but there was some lump of ck clouds flying at an amazing speed to her direction.
When the lump of ck clouds passed above her head, her topaz blue eyes managed to catch a glimpse that those ck clouds were actually following something!
[Species: Thunder and Lightning Caller Fox (Three-Tailed)]
[Qualification: Elite]
[Grade: Rare]
[Level: 25]
[HP: 224,700/224,700]
The huge blue fox with the purple pattern engraved on its body sensed someone looking at it and staring back at Tang Li Xue.
Its terrifying pair of purple eyes squinted in disdain the moment it saw the creature staring at it actually a [Common] grade savage beast.
The huge blue fox stopped staring at Tang Li Xue and continue its journey without slowing down at all, a [Common] grade savage beast was far from worthy for its attention.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief the moment the huge blue fox vanished from her sight. The pressure came from that huge blue fox was so powerful that it made her suffocating.
This was the first time Tang Li Xue felt the pressureing from the [Rare] grade demonic beast.
Although, she already met with the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard and Bi Fang before and they were far stronger than this whatever caller fox but they never use their pressure to threaten Tang Li Xue before.
''Hmm... The pressure from that fatty uncle is stronger but the pressure from this blue fox is so savage, full of bloodl.u.s.t and killing intent... It looks like my choice to hide my true strength is correct. That ce should be full of strong people... err... I mean foxes. I should be more low profileter or I would face a lot of problems!''
After calmed down for a while, Tang Li Xue realized that her basic [All Knowing Eyes] actually could see [Rare] grade demonic beast current HP.
''And... What is this qualification?''
Tang Li Xue tried to peek at the Silly Fox''s status with her basic [All Knowing Eyes] too.
[Species: Fox Sith (Two-Tailed)]
[Qualification: Lord]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 22]
[HP: 15,300/15,300]
Tang Li Xue decided to take some rest in the nearby bushes and the Fox Sith dly follow her. It even guarded by her side really carefully.
Tang Li Xue took out her encyclopedia, the [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] from her storage system, and opened it.
Tang Li Xue easily found what she was looking for at the beastbat prowess qualification section.
And the answer was actually so simple...
Most of the [Umon] grade demonic beasts did not have any divine ability and that was also the reason why Tang Li Xue could easily win against all of them.
All of these [Umon] grade demonic beasts without any divine ability have averagebat prowess so they have [Normal] qualification.
The [Umon] grade demonic beasts that have one divine ability were so rare and theirbat prowess was so strong, their qualification was [Elite].
[Elite] qualification means that beasts''bat prowess and battle proficient was far above the [Normal] qualification beasts. They also have one more divine ability than the [Normal] qualification beasts.
In other words, [Rare] grade demonic beasts with [Normal] qualification usually have only one divine ability but that huge blue fox has [Elite] qualification! So it has at least two divine abilities!
''Th... Then what the heck is this [Lord] qualification that Silly Fox have?''
The beast with [Lord] qualification was the absolute cream of the crop. The absolute top food chain in their grade, the true genius, and their battle prowess was unmatched!
Only someone above their grade or the other beasts with the [Lord] qualification could hope to match their prowess.
The beasts with [Lord] qualification have more divine abilities than the [Elite] qualification beasts!
So the silly Fox Sith actually had at least two or more divine ability as its trump card!
Tang Li Xue gasped in surprise. She knew the Silly Fox was a quite strong beast in [Umon] grade but she would never think that it was that OP.
Chapter 114 - 114: Arrival!
Chapter 114 - 114: Arrival!
Tang Li Xue held whole new respect to the Fox Sith after she knew its [Lord] qualification.
She stared at the Fox Sith full of admiration, the Fox Sith''s green eyes also trying to steal some nces toward Tang Li Xue.
The Fox Sith''s face blushed hard when its green eyes met with Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes and it immediately tried to cover its red face with both of its small paws.
''Sigh... but it''s still a silly little fox in the end...'' Tang Li Xue sighed while stored back the [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] into her system inventory.
Tang Li Xue jumped out from the bushes and continue her journey to her destination ce while the Fox Sith kept following her closely behind her.
Tang Li Xue met with more and more foxes on her way and from their hostile expressions, she could deduce that even though they were the same kin but thew of jungle was still working like usual, the weaker one would always be the food for the stronger one.
Although Tang Li Xue was very strong but her presence in front of everyone was still a [Common] grade savage beast after all.
Thankfully, the Fox Sith''s presence was so strong that all other [Umon] foxes did not even dare to stare at him and could only keep their distance from Tang Li Xue.
Now Tang Li Xue knew that this qualification thing was actually very important. The Fox Sith was the concrete proof of that fact, not even the [Umon] grade foxes with the [Elite] qualification dare to mess with this silly fox, they did not even dare to walk too close to it.
Thanks to Fox Sith, Tang Li Xue''s journey was a lot easier.
ording to the information Tang Li Xue got from the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard, she actually needs two more days to arrive at her destination ce but she managed to arrive one day earlier.
However, her destination ce was not like what she imagined before...
Since her destination ce was called ''Foxes Home'', Tang Li Xue always imagined that it was a fox vige or beautiful forest.
But now... she stood in the middle of the wilderness and in front of her was the area covered by very thick fog if she entered it she would probably not even be able to see her own paws.
''Should I enter it or now?''
When Tang Li Xue started to hesitate whether she should enter the fog area or not, the usual silly Fox Sith patted Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and tapped its own chest with a confident smile on its face.
It was clear the Fox Sith tried to tell Tang Li Xue: ''It is alright! Leave this to me!''
Actually, the Fox Sith already faced many situations far worse than this so many times before. The fog area was actually the secret area covered by the concealment formation.
The Fox Sith confidently entered the thick fog, Tang Li Xue also put her trustpletely on the fox sith and follow it closely beside it.
In fact, Tang Li Xue did not put her trust in the Fox Sith but she put herplete trust in its [Lord] qualification... The beast with [Lord] qualification would never be stumbled by this tiny hurdle.
Tang Li Xue even believes the Fox Sith should never lose in that cave before if it did not use its own body as a shield to protect her.
Tang Li Xue immediately felt the fog true horror the moment she stepped into it.
White!
Everywhere was white!
No... everything was white!
Tang Li Xue could not even see her own snout right now!
Tang Li Xue subconsciously wanted to step back out from this fog area but she felt something soft and warm holding her right paw.
Tang Li Xue immediately calmed down and sighed in relief so the Fox Sith was still beside her and it even held her right paw now.
She began to walk slowly following where the Fox Sith pulling her to.
This situation right now was actually veryical since the Fox Sith held Tang Li Xue''s right paw with its left paw so the two of them were walking using three legs.
Fortunately, no one could see anything inside the thick white fog or all the other foxes that see them right now would probablyughing at them.
After walking for more than ten minutes, the thick white fog in front of finally cleared up for a bit. At least Tang Li Xue could see several tens of meters in front of her right now.
There were also more than fifty kinds of foxes here and all of them watching at her with a weird expression.
Tang Li Xue lowered her head in embarrassment and pulled her right paw away from Fox Sith''s left paw while the Fox Sith felt lost and disappointed, it felt it did not hold Tang Li Xue''s paw long enough.
Tang Li Xue and Fox Sith walked side by side and approaching the group of foxes vigntly.
Tang Li Xue observed the foxes who present here for a moment.
All of the foxes were different from their color, power, even their size. Some of them as big as oxen but many of them only as big as the dog, several of them even as big as the squirrel.
The two of them instantly dumbfounded the moment they noticed there were two people who stood in front of the group of foxes!
''Wha...!!!!! A HUMAN?!''
Tang Li Xue opened her eyes wider in surprise and shock!
These two people wore the same type of white robes and both of them also wore fox masks.
Only their hair color was different, one of them has ck hair while the other has red hair but both of them have long hair that reached their back.
Tang Li Xue could not see their faces but the two of them should be women from their slender body and... their ample b.r.e.a.s.ts...
Tang Li Xue started to doubt if she fell into an illusion trap since no foxes tried to attack these two humans but that was until she noticed something strange about these two people.
''Is... Is that fox ears and tails?! Humans with fox ears and tails?! So are these two people humans or foxes?! Or... they are the beast that already reached spirit beast rank?!''
Tang Li Xue tried to use her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to identify their status, race, and grade but for the first time, her basic [All Knowing Eyes] actually failed to identify any of their statuses!
Tang Li Xue''s body shuddered a bit in fear but she immediately calmed herself after she thought for a few moments.
Her [Identify] skill could even detect Yaya''s mother status before and ording to the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard, her current strength should above mid-rank spirit beast.
So the only reason her basic [All Knowing Eyes] could fail to see these two people status was only because they were currently wearing something to hide their status from any detection skill.
Tang Li Xue stared at the fox mask these two people wore for a while and deduced that the mask should be the reason why she could not see their status with her basic [All Knowing Eyes].
While Tang Li Xue was still in a daze, the Fox Sith patted Tang Li Xue''s shoulder once again and pointed its paw at the quiet corner without any foxes.
Tang Li Xue awoke from her daze and realized that she became the center of attention right now since she kept staring at the two people. She followed the Fox Sith in a hurry and sat beside it a bit far away from the group of foxes.
It looks like they were currently still waiting for more foxes toe but the thick white fog was the first trial for them and only the foxes that capable to pass the thick white fog would have the right to take the next trial.
Since Tang Li Xue has no other work to do, she decided to use her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to peek at all the foxes'' status here one by one to kill her boredom.
Almost all of them were [Umon] grade demonic beasts and all of them actually held [Elite] qualification!
However, only the Fox Sith held the [Lord] qualification but it did not mean that the Fox Sith was the strongest fox here.
There were three [Rare] grade foxes at the other corner beside the group of [Umon] grade foxes.
Tang Li Xue did not find it weird when she saw the [Thunder and Lightning Caller Fox] among the group.
Tang Li Xue stared at the second [Rare] grade fox, it has beautiful white fur but different from Tang Li Xue glittering silver-white fur, this fox''s fur has some frost mixed in it and it also kept emitting extreme coldness from its slender body.
There was the thickyer of frost on the ground tens of meters around it and the snow continues to fall from above it even the temperature here also became quite chilling because of her presence.
[Species: White cial Frost Fox (Three-Tailed)]
[Qualification: Elite]
[Grade: Rare]
[Level: 22]
[HP: 196,800/196,800]
Thest one was the least impressive since it only had [Normal] qualification but it should be quite strong since it still [Rare] grade demonic beast after all.
Its body and fur were ck and look unimpressive but its demonic presence made all the foxes here felt afraid and ufortable.
All the foxes here were kept vignt toward it since the fresh blood smelling out from its body was too thick.
It means that this ck [Rare] grade fox already ughtered countless other beasts outside before entered here... and beasts around here at this time were only foxes!
[Species: Demonic Blood Fox (Three-Tailed)]
[Qualification: Normal]
[Grade: Rare]
[Level: 17]
[HP: 178,500/178,500]
Tang Li Xue also felt that this ck [Rare] grade fox aura was far too sinister and she really hate it.
Tang Li Xue also decided to keep her guard up around this sinister ck fox in this trial.
''Eh... wait a minute... This... Isn''t this mean that I am the only [Common] grade fox in this group?! Tsk... Now I know why they are looking at me so strangely.''
Chapter 115 - 115: The First Trial Begin!
Chapter 115 - 115: The First Trial Begin!
Tang Li Xue and the Fox Sith sat quietly and they waited for quite a long time.
The white fog around them was too thick that they could not see how long the time has passed at all.
They could not even determine if one night already passed or one day since they could not even see the starry skies or sun from there.
Tang Li Xue even almost identally fell asleep out of boredom but she quickly shook her head to clear her sleepiness.
The Fox Sith patted on the grassy ground near it then patted its furry chest.
Tang Li Xue knew that the Fox Sith signaled her to sleep there and it would guard her when she asleep.
However, Tang Li Xue did not want to be dependent on the Fox Sith since she also realized that the Fox Sith already helped her so much so she shook her head to refuse the Fox Sith''s tempting offer.
Fortunately, they did not need to wait for too long before one of the two humans saying something.
"It''s time. Our shift time is almost over." The human with ck hair, ck tail, and ck fox ears tilted her head and said to her friend.
Her sounds were melodic and sweet, it was really pleasant to ears. Just like Tang Li Xue guessed before, these two humans were actually young girls ording to their youthful mellow voice.
"You are right. Then I will pick the best one amongst them and escort them in." The girl with red hair, red tail, and red fox earszily nodded and took a few steps forward toward the crowd of foxes.
"You there, the one with three tails and white fur... also the fox with blue fur,e here! Hmm... That ck-furred one is also not bad,e here too!" The red-haired girl shouted out loud with her melodious voice but her tone was really unpleasant as if she was picking some chickens from the wet market.
Under the envious gaze of all [Umon] grade foxes, the three [Rare] grade foxes stood up and approaching the red-haired girl with the prideful expression on their face even their snouts tilted a bit upward.
Tang Li Xue also stared at the [Thunder and Lightning Caller Fox], the [White cial Frost Fox], and the [Demonic Blood Fox] when they walking forward to the red-haired girl.
She was not that surprised or envious with them since she already knew since the beginning from Bi Fang before when it said she should pass all the cruel trials first to enter Foxes Home since she was a savage beast.
"Wait! Not you! Go back to your ce!" The red-haired girl pointed her finger at the [Demonic Blood Fox] and impatiently waved her palm demand it to go back.
Everyone including the [Demonic Blood Fox] itself was stunned by the red-haired girl''s impudent words but before the [Demonic Blood Fox] could argue about it, the red-haired girl raised her finger again and pointed it toward Tang Li Xue''s direction.
"What I mean is the ck fox over there! Quick,e here!" The red-haired girl exined with her melodious voice.
All the foxes there and Tang Li Xue was so shocked and puzzled. It took them quite a while to process everything clearly.
''So that red girl is not calling for that [Demonic Blood Fox] but the Fox Sith beside me?! But why? Fox Sith is only a [Umon] grade demonic beast! Don''t tell me that they could also see the beast qualification like me?! If not, then why they could pick two [Rare] grade foxes with [Elite] qualification and [Umon] grade fox with [Lord] Qualification?''
Tang Li Xue still felt skeptical about it but the Fox Sith growled woke her up from her daze and it also kept staring at her with pitiful expression if Tang Li Xue did not know, she would think that the Fox Sith actually got rejected from entering there.
Tang Li Xue used her paw to push the Fox Sith forward. She waved her paw and told it to go then patted on her own furry chest as if saying ''believe in me'' with an expression full of confidence.
The Fox Sith walked forward very slow as if it had heavy lead stuck on its legs and it kept looking back toward Tang Li Xue with a teary face full of reluctance, sadness, and loneliness.
The foxes around almost puked out several mouthfuls of blood out of anger while thinking: ''You are going to the fox paradise, the ce dreamed by all the foxes, not to the hell or jail. Why are you making the expression as if you are being abandoned by the world?!''
ROOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRRR~~!!!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] roared to the skies full of anger and resentment.
Its blood-red eyes slowly opened and it was staring at the Fox Sith with fury and malice.
If it was the other foxes, they would already pass out of fright but the Fox Sith stared back at the [Demonic Blood Fox] calmly and walked past the [Demonic Blood Fox] as if nothing happened between them.
Actually, the Fox Sith was in a really bad mood now because it could not help its beloved silver-white fox to pass the trials and could not keep staying by her side and it would not mind using the [Demonic Blood Fox] as the object to vent its dissatisfaction if the [Demonic Blood Fox] dare to make a move against it.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] also knew that it could not make any move in front of the guardians if not, its precious life would vanish right away so it has no other choice other than restraining its anger for now.
But could not make any move here did not mean that it could not make any move in the trialster!
In fact, many foxes would certainly die or crippledter in the cruel trials!
What? That tiny ck fox did not join the trials and could directly enter the Foxes Home?
No worries... Didn''t that tiny ck fox have an important sweetheart that joins the cruel trial?
The [Demonic Blood Fox] was staring at Tang Li Xue with its pair of blood-red eyes. Its gaze was full of killing intent, madness, and bloodl.u.s.t.
Tang Li Xue''s tiny body shuddered when she felt someone staring at her. She stopped staring at the Fox Sith and looking around.
Her topaz blue eyes met with the [Demonic Blood Fox] crimson eyes and she immediately frowned deeply when she felt this crazy ck fox have some malicious intention toward her.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] sneered at Tang Li Xue, its savage expression was distorted full of cruelness and fierceness.
''Sigh... what is wrong with that ugly ck one? I did not even offend it before and now it kept staring at me with that ''I will certainly kill you'' expression?! You should settle your dispute with that reddy or Silly Fox! Not with me! Haih... so this is the suffering of the weak one... I did not even do anything but it''s targeting me now?!''
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in frustration and dissatisfaction. She steeled her ambition once again to be the strongest and stood above everyone in this Immortal World in the future so no one could bully her anymore!
The red-haired girl escorted the [Thunder and Lightning Caller Fox], the [White cial Frost Fox], and the fox sith. All of them entered deeper into the thicker fog area behind the ck-haired girl and vanished.
The fox sith took thest nce toward Tang Li Xue with a face full of tears for a while then ran to chase the red-haired girl from behind.
"Attention! All of you here actually don''t have enough qualifications to join us! But you all do not need to worry! I will give you all the equal chance to prove yourself worthy to enter our home!" The ck-haired girl took a few steps forward and shouted toward the crowd with her sweet voice.
"HOWEVER... these trials would be very cruel and arduous! I bet the one that will pass it allter could be counted by one hand! The rest would be crippled or died! So if you frightened or changed your mind, you can turn back now and walk out from here because you cannot step down halfway after this! I will give you all ten minutes to consider it!" The ck-haired girl warned the group of foxes with the stern tone then closed her eyes to wait for ten minutes to pass.
Tang Li Xue already knew about this before but the other foxes did not know it so almost all of them started to waver.
Since if they participated in this trial and died or crippledter, they will lose their chance forever!
And... They also have another choice...
They could wait for a few hundreds of years then evolve into [Rare] grade like that blue fox and the white fox before and entered without any need to going through the cruel trials.
Even though they forced to take part in the cruel trials like the [Demonic Blood Fox], their chance to pass would be almost certain if they reached the [Rare] grade.
In the end, several foxes decided to step back for now and try it againter after they evolved into the [Rare] grade demonic beast in the future.
From the fifty foxes at the beginning, their group had shrunk into thirty foxes in the end.
Ten minutes had passed without anyone knowing and the ck-haired girl opened her eyes again.
"I see, so all of you have some guts after all! But anyone full of guts without any capability to back it is no more than an idiot! As idiots, you all will die sooner orter so I will not waste my words to warn you all again! Now the first trial officially begins!" The ck-haired girl''s sweet voice resounded once again.
After saying her parts, the ck-haired girl turned around her slender body and started to dash into the thicker fog area behind her!
While the other foxes still remain clueless and confused on what to do, Tang Li Xue swiftly kicked her legs too and sprint toward where the ck-haired girl ran to!
Chapter 116 - 116: Cheating Blatantly!
Chapter 116 - 116: Cheating tantly!
Although all the foxes here have [Elite] qualification and far smarter than the [Normal] qualification foxes but their intelligence was still below Tang Li Xue.
They still need a few seconds to process what the ck-haired girl told them but when Tang Li Xue dashed forward to follow the ck-haired girl, all of them also instinctively chasing after Tang Li Xue from behind.
Amongst all the foxes, the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s reaction was the fastest after Tang Li Xue and it was also very clear that it had an evil intention toward Tang Li Xue from the start.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] ran forward too but its target was not to pursue the ck-haired girl but to chasing Tang Li Xue!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] speed was lightning fast and it managed to catch up Tang Li Xue with only a few steps.
The cruel sneer appeared on the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s bloodthirsty face as it stared at Tang Li Xue that a few inches in front of it.
''This bast*rd! We are only just started and it already targeting me! Tsk!''
Tang Li Xue saw the [Demonic Blood Fox] approaching her at breakneck speed and clicked her tongue in annoyance and anger.
Tang Li Xue instantly activated her [Ethereal Form] when the [Demonic Blood Fox] ck huge sturdy body almost trampled onto her tiny body from her right side!
Tang Li Xue''s tiny figure vanished into thin air and the [Demonic Blood Fox] bull-sized body passed right through Tang Li Xue''s transparent body harmlessly.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] felt strange since it did not feel anything under its feet as if it trampled onto the empty ground, it stopped for a while and looked around but it failed to find Tang Li Xue''s deformed dead body.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] could only grit its fangs in fury and annoyance but no matter what it did, it still could not track Tang Li Xue''s location so it was forced to forget about Tang Li Xue for now and continue to follow the ck-haired girl from behind.
However, with the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s evil and cruel nature, how could it have the patience to follow the ck-haired girl from behind quietly without doing anything?
So the [Demonic Blood Fox] started to harass the other foxes to vent its anger and relieve its boredom!
Tang Li Xue did not have any free time to care about what the [Demonic Blood Fox] do!
The ck-haired girl maybe running quite slow right now but she slowly kept increasing her speed more and more!
Tang Li Xue knew that even though this first trial looks so simple but it should not be as easy as every fox imagined!
Bi Fang and this ck-haired girl would never call the trials cruel and arduous if they only need to follow the ck-haired girl from behind like this.
Tang Li Xue immediately used her [Blink] skill several times in session and she managed to catch up with the ck-haired girl in only a few seconds.
Tang Li Xue activated her [High Jump] skill and pouched toward the ck-haired girl from behind.
The ck-haired girl''s slender body twitched a bit but fortunately, she did not dodge to the right or left side so it allowed Tang Li Xuended safely on her shoulder.
''Sigh... Uwehehehe... now I am really safe! I only need to wait until the end of this first trial then I will get down from this girl''s shoulder, go back to join the group, and cancel my [Ethereal Form]ter as if nothing happens! Fufufufu... What a great n! As I expected from the future Queen!''
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief then grinning ear to ear happily.
But Tang Li Xue still quite disturbed by this ck-haired girl''s reaction when she jumped toward her. It was as if the ck-haired girl wanted to dodge out of reflex but decided not to dodge in the end!
''It should be impossible, right? I know as an expert, she can detect anyone who watching over her like that fatty uncle but there are more than thirty foxes that watching over her from behind right now! So how did she know I jumped on her shoulder before?''
Moreover, [Ethereal Form] should also remove her weight. Tang Li Xue was quite confident about this since she did not even trigger anynd mine talisman when she infiltrated Elder Lin''s Residence before.
The ck-haired girl should not be able to feel her presence since she still had her [Conceal] passive skill activated.
But now for the first time, Tang Li Xue felt doubtful to her own [Ethereal Form]. She felt this ck-haired girl was mysterious and creepy so she did not dare to stare at the ck-haired girl, she did not even dare to take a peek at the ck-haired girl.
What if the moment she took a nce at the ck-haired girl, the ck-haired girl also stared back at her?!
Tang Li Xue decided to turn around and observing all the foxes that following behind her to distract her fear.
Actually, Tang Li Xue made the correct choice this time.
The ck-haired girl was really staring at her own left shoulder where Tang Li Xue stood right now for a few moments.
The ck-haired girl turned back her attention to her front after she did not feel any eyes watching her from her left shoulder.
The ck-haired girl was smiling mysteriously behind her fox mask while muttered softly: "Not bad kid..."
Tang Li Xue''s ear had already enhanced by [Advanced Sense of Hearing] several times so she could clearly hear what the ck-haired girl had said. Her tiny body shuddered but she still did not dare to look at the ck-haired girl.
After that, the ck-haired girl increased her running speed more and more rapidly while the white fog in front of them got thicker and thicker!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] slowed its speed and started to target another fox. This time it targeted the two-tailed brown fox as big as husky.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] huge robust body tilted to the right side dangerously if the two-tailed brown fox did not dodge it in time, it would certainly be crushed into a meat patty.
Tang Li Xue started to feel sorry for that two-tailed brown fox.
However, something unexpected by Tang Li Xue and the [Demonic Blood Fox] had happened!
The two-tailed brown fox jumped a bit and dive down into the ground like a dolphin dive down into the ocean!
BAAAAAANG~~!!!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] crashed heavily onto the grassy ground but the two-tailed brown fox was nowhere to be found.
Even Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in awe with the two-tailed brown fox''s ability.
ROOOOOOAAAAARRRRR~~!!!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] roared out full of anger and resentment then it started to target another fox.
This time it was targeting a two-tailed tiny grey fox.
The two-tailed tiny grey fox''s size was only as big as a squirrel. It was so tiny and cute but unfortunately, the [Demonic Blood Fox] did not have any love toward the cute thing like any human girl has.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] was the [Rare] grade fox so it has the fastest speed hereafter the ck-haired girl so it could easily roam around chasing after the other foxes withoutgging behind the ck-haired girl.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] ran closer and closer toward the two-tailed tiny grey fox.
But something unexpected happened again!
Ka... Ka... Ka... Ka... Ka...
The bones and muscles of the two-tailed tiny grey fox started to change then a pair of bat-like wings appeared behind its tiny back!
The two-tailed tiny grey fox pped its pair of bat-like wings and soaring to the foggy sky. Its tiny cute figure was blending with the thick white fog and could no longer be seen.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] blood-red eyes became even redder. Its bloodl.u.s.t and killing intent also became even more intense and thicker! It still did not give up harassing others and started to target another fox!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] locked its attention to the two-tailed yellow fox with its blood-red eyes this time.
The two-tailed yellow fox felt the [Demonic Blood Fox] gaze and quickly activated its ability before the [Demonic Blood Fox] could approach it.
The two-tailed yellow fox split into ten and all of them were extremely identical with the same size, smell, presence, and aura!
The ten two-tailed yellow foxes started to split up and kept chasing after the ck-haired girl from ten different directions behind her.
''Holysh*t! Is that shadow clone?! Ten shadow clones at once?! What an OP skill! No, this should be its divine ability! I almost forgot that all of these foxes have [Elite] qualification! So all of them have one divine ability!''
For the first time, Tang Li Xue finally witnessed true prowess of the [Umon] grade demonic beasts with divine ability!
The difference between the one possessed the divine ability and not possessed the divine ability was like heaven and earth!
If the beasts without any divine ability were like the ordinary civilian in human society, then the beasts with divine ability were like the true heroes with unique superpower!
''Sigh... So this is the true prowess of the [Elite] qualification! The difference is too far! They are far stronger than the [Normal] qualification [Umon] grade demonic beast! I wonder if the difference between [Elite] qualification and [Lord] qualification is also as vast as this too?''
Tang Li Xue started to feel curious about Fox Sith''s true battle prowess. Now she understood that the Fox Sith should be stronger than what it showed in front of her and it did not have any chance to use its true strength since its opponents were too weak until now.
But Tang Li Xue also felt guiltier since someone as strong as the Fox Sith was almost killed before because it tried to protect her before.
''Sigh... I must try to repay its kindness if I have any chance in the future.''
While Tang Li Xue still in her deep thought and the [Demonic Blood Fox] still trying to harass the other fox, the ck-haired girl sneered mockingly at what the [Demonic Blood Fox] did.
"I see you are all really rxed! You can even still ying hide and seek behind me so leisurely. Actually, I want to let you all warm up for a few hours but I changed my mind now." The ck-haired girl''s sweet voice was not loud but every fox could hear her words clearly.
After her words ended, the thick white fog area around them had ended and now they entered the thick ck fog section!
Even Tang Li Xue''s instinct felt something bading from this thick ck fog section.
Chapter 117 - 117: Mud Swamp!
Chapter 117 - 117: Mud Swamp!
The ck-haired girl''s speed did not decrease at all even after she entered the thick ck fog area.
All of the ck-haired girl''s steps were still so light and leisure right now so all the foxes following behind her also thought there was nothing special about this thick ck fog area only their vision became more limited.
However, the moment their legs stepped into the ck fog area, they immediately realized that they were wrong!
Their legs sunk deeper and deeper into the ground. Some of the foxes did not react in time and tumbled then fell down. Their body sunk deeper into the ground.
''That is.....?! Mud swamp?! Sigh... the ck fog here is too thick and no one can see the ground below them so clearly. It''s not strange if they stumbled like that.''
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise and she started to feel sorry for all the foxes behind her.
But she also felt fortunate that she could use her [Ethereal Form] divine ability to cheating like this. If not for it, she would probably have a great headache trying to figure out how to pass this ck fog area that full of the mud swamp.
Now she did not need to worry about anything, she could even watching how her otherpetitors using their ability to pass this trial.
Tang Li Xue looked below, trying to take a peek on the ck-haired girl''s feet and she instantly baffled since her feet did not even sink into the mud swamp like the others.
''Damn! There is not even a trace of mud clinging on this girl''s shoes! How the hell she do it?! Is this her divine ability? Or... is this the legendary light body technique from martial arts?''
Tang Li Xue shook her head and decided to forget it for now. This ck-haired girl was too bizarre and unfathomable. Tang Li Xue would probably overwork her brain if she thought everything about what this ck-haired girl could do.
Tang Li Xue turned her attention back to the group of foxes behind her.
Tang Li Xue was surprised once again when she looked at one of the foxes froze the mud under its feet and in front of it then it ran freely on the top of freezing mud as if nothing hindered it at all.
''Hmm? That white two-tailed fox almost identical with that [Rare] grade [White cial Frost Fox] from before... Maybe they are rtive or even siblings?''
Tang Li Xue turned her attention back to the big bully, the [Demonic Blood Fox].
The [Demonic Blood Fox] had a strong and robust body full of solid muscles, it easily bulldozed everything and even the mud swamp could not hinder its way. It kept proceeded without even decreasing its speed at all.
Tang Li Xue could only click her tongue in annoyance. This damn fox kept trying to bully her again and again. No... it kept trying to kill her again and again.
If she has some chancester she would definitely teach this damn fox a very hard lesson that it would never forget!
BWOOOOOSH~~!!!
Tang Li Xue turned her gaze toward where the sounding from.
A tiny orange-colored two-tailed fox. Its size was only as big as a Chihuahua.
However, its entire body was covered by the raging orange colored mes!
The tiny orange fox jumped high and the raging orange mes on its body exploded.
The explosion''s recoil was propelling the tiny orange fox flying forward with unbelievable speed!
When the orange fox felt its flying speed starting to decrease, it kept using the same method again and again to propelling its body flying forward and to maintain its speed!
''A... Awesome! What a genius! To think it could use its me power like this! Could I also use my me of Pride like that and flying to the sky? No... Even though my control increased greatly after I got Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline and I have not reached that level yet. I need more practice, more control, and countless trial and error to reach that level.''
Tang Li Xue could only watch the orange fox flying with envy right now but she was sure that with her Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline, she would only need to practice for a little while to reach the orange fox''s level of control.
Every fox has its own way of using their divine ability to pass the mud swamp.
Even the fox with the most ipatible divine ability like the yellow fox with shadow clones divine ability has its own way.
The yellow fox actually used its own shadow clones as stepping stones! The shadow clones made the bridge from their body and the yellow fox calmly stepped on the shadow clones back.
The yellow fox only needs to cancel the one it already stepped and summoned it in front of it again and again making thepletely endless bridge made from its own shadow clones!
The yellow fox''s true body did not even touch any mud until now.
''...........It... It... It can even use shadow clones that way too?!''
Tang Li Xue almost stumbled down from the ck-haired girl''s shoulder because she was too surprised.
Tang Li Xue observed the other foxes and she was in awe when she saw they could easily handle this situation with their divine ability.
The other foxes need several hundreds of years to evolve from [Common] grade savage beasts to [Umon] grade demonic beasts so although, they were not smarter than Tang Li Xue but they have extremely rich experience!
Moreover, no one knew how long they stay as [Umon] grade demonic beasts and maybe they were already stuck at [Umon] grade for a few hundreds of years until now, so it was clear why they knew exactly how to use their divine ability and their control on their power also already reached perfection.
Half an hourter, the other foxes started to think they only need to pass this mud swamp for now so they rxed their guard.
Tang Li Xue also started to get bored and yawned.
However, the situation quickly changed when everyone heard the screaming from one of the foxes!
Every fox quickly turned their attention to where the screaming sounding from but did not see anyone or anything there!
The ck fog was getting thicker and thicker. Everyone could hardly see anything in front of them now and the screaming sound made them raise their guard to the maximum.
KEEAKKKK~~!!!
A huge bird with a pair of bat-like wings dived down and opened its sharp beak! It wanted to bit the orange me fox with its sharp beak!
The tiny orange fox immediately used its orange me explosion to dodge to its right side.
The huge bird did not give up and kept chasing after the tiny orange fox!
''What the hell is that? A pterodactyl? Is it the only one? Or... are there a pack of them here?''
Tang Li Xue could not see that clearly either even with her sight that already enhanced by [Advanced Sense of Sight] plus [Night Vision] skills that allow her to see through the dark.
She also did not dare to use her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to check the huge bird status when she was still stood at the ck-haired girl''s left shoulder.
What if the ck-haired girl realized her existence after she used her basic [All Knowing Eyes]? Then the ck-haired girl threw her away back to the panicked group of foxes behind her?!
The situation behind her was worsened considerably and she did not want to court death by making an unnecessary move.
While all the foxes looked upward full of vignce while kept running to chase the ck-haired girl but they already prepared themselves to dodge or counterattack if the other huge birdsing down and attacking them...
CRUUUNCH~~!!!
The loud sound of bones crushed creepily resounded, Tang Li Xue immediately turned her attention to where the sound came from.
Then Tang Li Xue saw a gruesome scene where one of the foxes was currently chewed by arge crocodileing out from the depth of mud swamp!
Tang Li Xue trembled in fear and trepidation.
ROOOOOAAAAAARRRRR~~!!!
Severalrge crocodiles jumped out from inside the mud swamp and pounced on to several other foxes!
The group of foxes began to fight fiercely with the group ofrge crocodiles using their own unique divine ability!
However, therge group of huge birds dived down in the middle of the chaotic battle between the severalrge crocodiles and the group of foxes!
Therge group of huge birds attacked everyone indiscriminately! They managed to catch two foxes with their sharp beak and pulled threerge crocodiles out from the mud swamp with their strong w''s grip!
Therge group of huge birds finished the two foxes and the threerge crocodiles in only a few seconds! They were eating their prey''s flesh and blood so greedily in the group just like a group of crows only leaving their clean skeleton behind!
Usually, the big and strong demonic beast was an individual being and they dislike moving in the group but these huge birds were different. Their individual strength was quite strong but they were still moving in groups like wolves and crows!
Moreover, their teamwork each other was perfect and they have the patience to wait for the right opportunity to strike!
This was the first time Tang Li Xue saw a group of demonic beasts that could cooperate with each other to this level.
''Is their first strike before only to probe our group''s strength? Or is it trying to bait us? Oh My God... Please don''t tell me these groups of giant birds have enough intelligence to think that far?!''
Chapter 118 - 118: Rainbow Fog Area!
Chapter 118 - 118: Rainbow Fog Area!
''OH NO! Some of them areing here!''
Several huge birds were diving down from the sky toward the ck-haired girl and Tang Li Xue!
The ck-haired girl turned her head a bit to the right side and red at the group of huge birds that pounced to her.
Her stare was cold and unfeeling without any threat like bloodl.u.s.t, killing intent, or pressure behind it.
However, the group of huge birds instantly felt as if they were flying into the depth of the abyss.
KEEEEAAAAAAAAK~~!!!
The dangerous feeling they got was so intense that they broke their own flying formation and flying away in the panic!
Tang Li Xue was baffled when she saw that the group of huge birds behind her started to scatter everywhere and some of them even crashed onto each other then dropped down into the muddy swamp.
Tang Li Xue did not understand why they acted like that but she was very sure the reason should be rted to this ck-haired girl.
Tang Li Xue still did not dare to check what the ck-haired girl did to make all of those huge birds ran away in panic so she decided to check the group of foxes situation behind her.
Their situation was very bad and the foxes fell one by one under thebined assault of the big crocodiles and the huge birds.
But it was also made several of them stand out from the other because they showed the extraordinary prowess above their peers!
Now Tang Li Xue knew that this trial was to test the participants'' truebat prowess and their ability to adapt themselves in any unexpected situation and in this kind of harsh environment like this mud swamp covered by thick ck fog.
The one with the strongest prowess amongst them was still the biggest bully, the [Demonic Blood Fox]!
Every time it attacks with its ws, it would create some sharp blood ws out of nothing and tore the big crocodile into tiny pieces before the crocodile could even get close!
When the huge birds dived down to attack the [Demonic Blood Fox], the ck demonic fox immediately bit its sharp beak and crushed the hard beak using its fangs, it continued to bit the birds head then to its body until every part entered the demonic fox mouth!
The ck demonic fox did not like to eat the crocodile since it covered in mud but the demonic fox could eat the huge bird without any problem and it even took its time to savor the birds'' soft meat in its mouth.
Tang Li Xue felt disgusted when she saw how the [Demonic Blood Fox] ate but she must admit that this ck demonic fox was really strong.
While every fox fought to keep their own lives, this ck demonic fox was killing and eating leisurely as if it was eating snacks in the food bazaar.
The second strongest one was the two-tailed white fox with freezing power.
It cleverly increased its power output the moment the group of huge birds and big crocodiles approached it.
Its incredible freezing power froze everything in more than twenty meters radius in the solid ice!
No one from the group of huge birds and big crocodiles near it was spared! All of them were frozen solid and sunk into the depth of mud swamp!
''Uwaaaah... That white fox is quite strong for a [Umon] grade demonic beast! I wonder how can I defeat it if I don''t use my me of Pride since my [Ethereal Form] is vulnerable to elemental attack...''
The third strongest among the foxes group is actually the most unexpected one! It was the two-tailed purple-colored fox as big as a rat.
Tang Li Xue did not even realize this purple fox exist before but now it was showing its strange divine ability in front of everyone.
The two-tailed purple fox''s eyes shone with mysterious purple light.
And now... the group of huge birds and big crocodiles that targeted the purple fox turned crazy and started to fight among themselves!
Their fight was so gruesome and bloody without any regard for their own lives and in the end, only one huge bird left.
The two-tailed purple fox calmly jumped onto the huge bird''s back and they flew leisurely on the sky following the ck-haired girl from behind.
''What the hell is that ability?! Mind control? Is that the true mind control divine ability?! It''s so OP!''
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaws in surprise and disbelief.
However, no matter how strong these foxes were, they would notst long if these fierce battles kept going on for an entire day and night.
Fortunately, the ck-haired girl still had hermon sense and only forced the group of foxes to fight for a few hours before leading them toward the new section.
Tang Li Xue turned her furry head and looked at the rainbow fog area a few miles ahead of her.
However, Tang Li Xue still did not dare to lower her guard at all. No one knows if something dangerous would jump out from nowhere like in the ck fog area before.
The rainbow fog was not only beautiful but it also glittering like stars on the skies and different from another fog area, everyone could see everything clearly inside this rainbow fog area.
When everyone entered the rainbow fog area, they could clearly see the grassy ground, the beautiful mountain range, the tall trees, and the clear river.
The air was so clean and fresh here. On contrary with the mud swamp before, there was no weird unpleasant smell at all.
Every fox were already extremely exhausted and many of them were wounded so they immediately sighed in relief when they entered this rainbow fog area.
The ck-haired girl also decreased her running speed by a lot after they entered this area.
Everyone including Tang Li Xue thought the ck-haired girl was actually want to let them take a rest here but once again they have underestimated the cruelness of this trial and the ck-haired girl viciousness.
Every fox including Tang Li Xue felt their eyelid became heavier and heavier in each passing second after they entered this rainbow fog area.
Then they began to fell unconscious one by one...
Tang Li Xue also felt something was not right after she entered here but she only realized it after the other foxes fell unconscious.
''Oh no... This is bad! Is this rainbow fog poisonous? Or... it only makes us fell asleep? Damn it! I must do something before I...''
Unfortunately, it was already toote...
Tang Li Xue''s vision went dark.
.....
...
.
"Defibritor!"
"150 joules. Clear!"
Tang Li Xue felt something cold pressed onto her chest and the defibritor released the electric current gently onto her body.
*Beep.*
*Beep beep.*
The ECG monitor suddenly released some sounds.
"Cardiac rhythm 130, autonomous regtion of cardiac rhythm¡ Blood pressure 120/74¡" The nurse read out the figures on the monitor.
"Sob... Xue''er! Xue''er! Please! Sob... Please don''t leave me alone! Sob... Sob..." Tang Li Xue heard a very familiar voiceing from near her.
Tang Li Xue felt her eyelid was really heavy and she could only open her eyes a bit but it took a very great effort for her to do it.
Then she saw... a familiar handsome teenager cried so loudly beside her bed.
''BIG BROTHER!!!''
Tang Li Xue tried to move her mouth to call her big brother but she could not utter any sound.
After that, Tang Li Xue felt the great fatigue flooded her entire body and she fell asleep.
Tang Li Xue did not know how long she fell asleep but she finally had some energy to move around her body for a bit.
She opened her eyes slowly and found herself inside the hospital room as usual. She could even smell the familiar disinfectant from her surroundings.
Tang Li Xue tried to get up but her body was so weak that even sit on her own bed need her to use most of her stamina.
"Eh... Xue''er! You finally wake up! Aiss... look at you! What a cker!" Her big brother chided her jokingly while smiling full of gentleness then he reached her right hand and patting Tang Li Xue''s head.
"Big brother, why are you doing here all day? Just go and do your job properly. There is no need for you to take care of me all day." Tang Li Xue puffed her cheek and pouted.
Tang Li Xue big brother''s name was Tang Yun Hao. Although, they had a hard life but her brother was always acting overconfident, optimistic, and cheerful in front of her.
In fact, the one responsible for Tang Li Xue''s current personality was her brother, Tang Yun Hao.
If Tang Yun Hao was the person with pessimistic personality, always grumbling, and cursing Tang Li Xue for being a burden, Tang Li Xue would definitely be a timid and introvert girl just like the other sickly girls.
"What are you talking about? Of course, I am here because I have already finished all of my work! Hehehe... Xue''er look at what big brother brings for you today!" Tang Yun Hao took out several stic bags from below Tang Li Xue''s bed.
"Big brother, you don''t need to buy me any food from outside anymore. The porridge from this hospital is not that bad. You can save food money to pay for our debt." Tang Li Xue waved her hands weakly trying to reject what her big brother gave to her.
Chapter 119 - 119: Farewell, Big Brother!
Chapter 119 - 119: Farewell, Big Brother!
''"Who said that this is food?! Hehehe... you little glutton, is there only food inside your head? Look clearly! Du du du dum ja jang~~~!!!" Tang Yun Hao was smiling mysteriously then pulled out something from inside his stic bag.
"These areics and novel books! With all of these, you will never get bored even if I am not here to apany you. Look I even bring you a tablet! You can read web novels or watching some movies from youtube with this!" Tang Yun Hao cheerfully took out the items inside the stic bag one by one and introduced them to Tang Li Xue smugly.
"Big Brother, why did you use your money to buy all of these useless things? You should save all the money to..." Tang Li Xue frowned and tried to reprimanding her big brother but her big brother immediately interrupted her words.
"Aaaaahhhh!!! I don''t want to hear it! Xue''er, I did not buy all of these things! I borrow it all from my friends!" Tang Yun Hao quickly exined to calm Tang Li Xue down.
"Really? But I clearly saw the price tag sticker on the back." Tang Li Xue''s lips curved upward and said it.
"What?! That is impossible! I am very sure that I already pulled it all and I even check all of it twice before I..." Tang Yun Hao panicked and checked all the books and the tablet once again.
"Wait a minute... Xue''er! How could you lie to your big brother like this?!" Tang Yun Hao red Tang Li Xue angrily.
Tang Li Xueughed out loud unrestrained when she saw that her big brother was still as silly as before but she immediately coughed out heavily after that.
Tang Yun Hao hastily took a ss of warm water and gave it to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue calmed down after she drank a mouthful of warm water. She kept staring at her big brother full of tenderness and longing.
"What? Are you starting to fall in love with your big brother''s handsomeness now? Hehehe... then this big brother will reluctantly ept your love if you can kiss my cheek now!" Tang Yun Hao extended his right cheek closer to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue giggled and slowly murmuring: "If only this moment canst forever... even if I am still sickly and weak like this but I am more than willing to... sigh... Unfortunately... nothing couldst forever..."
"Big Brother... Xue''er is very happy right now."
"Xue''er has her own system right now like the one in the novel Big Brother gave to me."
"Xue''er is no longer weak and sickly... Xue''er is very strong right now. Xue''er can defeat all of her enemies like the hero in the movies andics."
"Xue''er also has a huge dragon as a mount and a beautiful fairy as a pet. Xue''er also has a super-strong but cute tiny ck fox as apanion now! Xue''er system is very powerful and it will make Xue''er into the most beautiful and strongest deity in no time!"
Tang Li Xue narrated everything to her big brother one by one but her eyes were full of tears that kept pouring out.
Tang Yun Hao was too stunned and his expression said that he did not understand anything Tang Li Xue told him.
"In short... Xue''er is very happy right now... so Big Brother doesn''t need to worry about Xue''er anymore... Big Brother... please, rest assured. You can seek your own happiness from now on... you already have done enough for Xue''er." Tang Li Xue sobbed but her words were very soothing.
Tang Yun Hao silence for a moment to think all of Tang Li Xue''s words carefully and he immediately smiling gently then say: "I see... so you are very happy right now. Aiyah! And here I thought that I am the only one that can make Xue''er happy!"
"A dragon, fairy, and ck fox huh... Also a powerful system! Sigh... now even I have started to feel envy and jealous of Xue''er! What to do?! It looks like Big Brother is no longer needed anymore!" Tang Yun Hao said in a disappointment tone but his expression was full of smile and happiness.
It was as if he finally released from all of the burdens.
"Xue''er please lived your life happily to the fullest now so you will not have any more regretter. Big Brother... will not be able to apany you anymore... but Big Brother is very confident that you can find someone more precious than your Big Brotherter." Tang Yun Hao stood up and kissed Tang Li Xue''s forehead gently for thest time.
"Farewell... Big Brother..." Tang Li Xue murmured. She closed her eyes and her tears dripped down wetting her face.
"Farewell, Xue''er. Big Brother really loves you... and will always be." Tang Yun Hao was smiling full of gentleness and tenderness then he opened the door and walked out of Tang Li Xue''s room.
Crack... Crack... Crack... Crack... Crack...
The scene in front of Tang Li Xue started to crack bit by bit like a ss wall.
The hospital room with the smell of disinfectant...
The soft pillow and bed...
The sofa near the window where her Big Brother always slept...
The flowers and its vase which the kind nurse always take care of her...
The ce where she was most familiar with...
Everything finally crumbled into nothingness!
.....
...
.
Low-Ranked Realm, Modern World, Feng Hua Hospital...
In the room where Tang Yun Hao still lied down in the vegetative state...
No one knew but Tang Yun Hao''s consciousness was actually kept struggling in every moment.
He did not want to die yet...
He still has a big debt to pay...
And the most important of all, he still has his most beloved little sister that waiting for him to wake up!
But he had a dream just now... he was dreaming of meeting her little sister again... and her little sister told him that she was living very well right now.
She even said her final farewell to him...
Tang Yun Hao''s eyes were still closed down tightly but his pale lips slowly curved upward.
PIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~~!!!
Tang Yun Hao''s life sign had finally ceased to exist at this moment.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue''s body jerked and she slowly opened her eyes.
She looked around the rainbow fog area in confusion but she immediately cleared her mind and looked at the ck-haired girl in front of her full of vignce.
"Twenty minutes, really not bad, kid! You are the first one to break out from the underworld illusion among everyone." The ck-haired girl said in the leisure tone. Even with the fox mask covered her face, Tang Li Xue could somewhat know that the ck-haired girl praised her while smiling.
The ck-haired girl sat on the top of the rock and crossed her long slender legs.
Tang Li Xue looked around her and saw all the other unconscious foxes lied down on the ground just like her before.
"Underworld Illusion is testing their willpower, perseverance, and spirit power if they don''t wake up after one hour they would never wake up ever again. I am actually quite surprised that a savage beast like you is the first one to break out from the illusion. Now, I am really curious, how could you do it?! You are not even a demonic beast yet!" The ck-haired girl put her palm on her chin and observed Tang Li Xue curiously.
Tang Li Xue shuddered slightly under the ck-haired girl''s stare.
Tang Li Xue was really nervous and afraid right now. She was afraid if the ck-haired girl realized something inside her body... like the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] or her system.
''Is it really that hard to break that whatever illusion? Actually, I am still remember everything very clearly inside that illusion and I can break it faster easily if I want to but... sigh... I really miss my big brother so that is why I stayed a bit longer inside that illusion before.''
The ck-haired girlughed out loud when she saw Tang Li Xue''s skeptical stare.
"Underworld illusion is actually not really an illusion. It''s actually a bridge that connected you all temporarily with the dead soul of your beloved one through an illusion. But if you all stay there for too long then you will no longer be able toe back and you must stay there forever. You know what I mean, right?" Maybe the ck-haired girl was bored now so she patiently exined everything to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s body trembled while thinking: ''Does it mean the Big Brother I meet before is the real one? Not an illusion? No way, right? My big brother... should be not dead yet...''
Tang Li Xue fell in a daze for a few moments after that but she immediately shook her head.
''Oh well... Why do I need to think about it?! All of those are only an illusion made from this rainbow gas! Let''s just forget it for now and focus on what I need to do!''
Tang Li Xue sat and closed her eyes. She put both of her paws together then prayed for her Big Brother so he could wake up from his vegetative state soon and regain his consciousness then he could get his own happiness in the end.
"Oh yeah, do remember, I know that you are cheating before. So you must persuade your boyfriend and join my Inspector ss or I will tell every disciple and instructor in Foxes Home about it." The ck-haired girl saidzily with her sweet voice but the topic of her talk was far from sweet for Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue stumbled forward when she heard what the ck-haired girl told her.
''Wh... Whaaaaaat?! Is this a threat? Coercion?! No, this is clearly ckmail, isn''t it?!''
Tang Li Xue almost coughed out a mouthful of blood when she heard the ck-haired girl''s threat.
After a while, the group of foxes behind Tang Li Xue started to regain their consciousness one by one.
However, among the twenty foxes that passed the ck fog area, only eleven foxes could regain their consciousness after entered this rainbow fog area in the end.
They were only at the first trial and these cruel trials were only at the beginning phase but they have already lost more than one-third of the foxes in their group.
Chapter 120 - 120: The Second Trial Start!
Chapter 120 - 120: The Second Trial Start!
"Hm, eleven foxes. It is more than I expected! Not bad, good job to you all! Congrattion, you all sessfully passed the first trial!" The ck-haired girl pped her hands to congratte all the foxes.
However, no one was happy or smiling right now.
On the contrary, their mood sunk down more and be even gloomier the moment they heard the guardian said ''passed the first trial''.
All of the surviving foxes hoped and prayed that the three colored fog area before was the only trials and everything would be over once they passed it but now they realized that it was only their wishful thinking.
The ck-haired girl giggled happily from behind her fox mask when she saw all the foxes despaired expression.
Even Tang Li Xue started to feel that this ck-haired fox girl was deliberately trying to kill all of them.
"You all don''t need to worry. The second trial is actually far easier than the first trial and I am sure some of you will like it. Follow me!" The ck-haired girl waved her smooth white palm signaled them all to follow her.
All of the foxes followed the ck-haired girl from behind like before but this time, the ck-haired girl did not run. She was only walking leisurely at her own pace, her body posture was also straight and full of elegance.
However, all of the foxes including Tang Li Xue did not dare to let their guard down even a bit.
No one could guess where this treacherous ck-haired girl would bring them to. What if she brought them toward the demonic beast''s nest like in the mud swamp before?
After walking for more than ten minutes, they finally arrived at the empty deste ground but there was arge circle made from a long string of runes inscribed on the ground.
"Come closer! Why are all of you still so timid like a group of mice? This is only a teleportation array. Come here, I will bring you all to the second trial''s location!" The ck-haired girl exined with an impatient tone.
The group of foxes including Tang Li Xue reluctantly entered the circles of runes but they still maintained their maximum vignce. Even the big bully, the [Demonic Blood Fox] did not dare to act recklessly anymore under the ck-haired girl''s eyes.
WEEEEEEEENG~~!!!
Tang Li Xue did not know what the ck-haired girl did but the circle of runes immediately lighted up after all of them stood inside it.
The space around them distorted in an instant and their surrounding scene changed from the beautiful mountain range full of rainbow fog onto the dark lush forest.
The group of foxes became very dizzy and several of them even puked out everything in their stomach out.
The feeling was almost the same as seasickness but more intense.
Thanks to her [Regeneration] skill, Tang Li Xue was the one among the group of foxes to recover from that awful effect.
Ding!
[The host sessfully absorbed three types of mystic fog!]
[Gained the title ''Explorer''!]
[Explorer]: All stats +20% at the ce where the host never visited before.
''Woah?! What is this? New title? Nice! I got something without even doing anything! And... What are these three types of mystic fog? Ah... I remember now! So these three kinds of fog are the requirement for evolving into [Mystic Moon Fox]... But I already decided to evolve into [Royal Moon Fox] so these fogs are actually not needed. Oh well... at least I have one more evolution choice now.''
While Tang Li Xue drowned in her own thought, the ck-haired girl opened her mouth and talk.
"Listen, kids! Here is where our second trial would be held! Some of you should already know that this is Demonic Beast Mountain Range maybe some of you have even been here before. However, today is different from usual!" The ck-haired girl did not care about the group of fox''s pitiful dizzy state and exined hastily with her sweet voice.
"Today is the day of the Immortal Sword Sect recruiting their new disciple and this Demonic Beast Mountain Range is where their entrance exam being held. They will send all of their new disciples to hunt the demonic beasts here and they need to bring the beast cores back to the examiner as the proof." The ck-haired girl continued but her speaking tone got colder.
"Since they are using the demonic beasts as the object for their exam then we will using those insolent humans as the object for our trial too! The human''s head worth 2 points but if you cannot bear to kill, you can restrain them and bring them back to me for 1 point!" The ck-haired girl waved her long-sleeved robe and ten leather pouches flew toward the group of foxes.
"You can ce the human heads or the living humans inside that pouch. You can return here and give that pouch back to me after you get 50 points!" The ck-haired girl exined again after each fox caught one leather pouch.
"Oh... I almost forgot. I only brought ten pouches since I think your number would never exceed ten after the first trial. So... you, the purple fox with the mind control divine ability! Come here! You don''t need to join the second trial! Give your pouch to the other that doesn''t have it yet!" The ck-haired girl said while pointing her slender finger at the two-tailed purple-colored fox.
The rat-sized purple fox stunned for a while then it jumped toward the ck-haired girl in happiness after it threw its leather pouch to the fox that doesn''t have it yet.
''What the... Dammit! How could she do this?! This is not fair at all! That girl abused her authority! As an examiner, she should be impartial!''
Tang Li Xue alreadypletely forgot that she herself cheated in the previous trial.
"Now go! REMEMBER! Onlye back to me after you have 50 points! If not, you will be disqualified instantly!" The ck-haired girl warned them with a stern tone.
The group of foxes immediately scattered and ran toward different directions after the ck-haired girl gave her permission.
Tang Li Xue felt an intense stare full of murderous intent looking at her direction. There was no need for her to check it since she already knew it was certainlying from the big bully, [Demonic Blood Fox].
Tang Li Xue did not care about that big bully and she instantly activated her [Ethereal Form]. Her tiny silver-white figure vanished into thin air.
She already decided long ago that she would give the big bully some harsh lessons if she has a chanceter.
However, Tang Li Xue was still confused about the second trial''s rules.
''So I can only get 1 point if I manage to catch human alive but I can get 2 points if I bring back only their head?! What kind of logic is this?! Isn''t it usually the opposite? Sigh... So now I need to catch fifty disciples alive? Can this small leather pouch hold them all?''
Tang Li Xue looked at the small leather pouch and activated her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to identify it.
[Medium-Rank Space Pouch]
[Description: Space pouch made from the demonic beast skin with the power of the space-elemental. The space inside was quiterge but it can hold any living being and items without spirit fluctuation. Beware: This space pouch is fragile so never put any item with spirit fluctuation into it!]
''So it''s a medium-rank one... Spirit fluctuation? So it cannot be used to hold spirit stones? What about the one I get from the fake dragon? Let''s check it!''
[Extreme-Rank Space Pouch]
[Description: Space pouch made from the high-ranked demonic beast skin with the power of the space-elemental. The space inside was extremelyrge. It can hold any items but cannot hold any living being.]
''Woah! Extreme-rank?! Not bad! As I expected from my mount! It really is generous to me! But unfortunately, it cannot hold any living being like the medium-ranked one.''
Tang Li Xue stopped thinking about it and walked deeper into the forest.
There were many tall trees and lush bushes restricting everyone''s vision.
Moreover, it was already night now so the forest was really dark.
Tang Li Xue met with several other kinds of demonic beasts on her way but with her [Ethereal Form], she could easily pass them without being found.
Tang Li Xue met with several headless corpses on her way too. She was certain that these corpse heads already taken by the other foxes.
She checked for a moment and found these headless bodies were frozen solid.
Tang Li Xue guessed these people were killed by the white fox with freezing divine ability she saw in the first trial before.
''Come to think of it... can all of these foxes count? Did they really understand how many people they need to kill to get 50 points? Oh crap! Since they cannot count, they would probably kill everyone they saw and took their head! I must hurry or I will not be able to get any humans!''
Tang Li Xue increased her pace and used her martial soul, the [Flying Golden Fish] to scout her path and prey!
Like usual, when Tang Li Xue was in her [Ethereal Form], her martial soul would also in the same state as her so her [Flying Golden Fish] waspletely invisible too just like her.
She finally managed to find a group of disciples who wore gaudy clothes after a few hours of searching.
These people were camped and even barbequed some the demonic beast meats with arge fire. It was really a big mystery that they could stay alive until now with their reckless behavior.
However, Tang Li Xue raised her guard even more because these people wore those kinds of luxury clothes, which means they wereing from rich families!
Since they came from the rich families, it means their families could probably buy them some protection treasures to ensure they could pass their exams easier!
''Now, what to do? I could easily kill them but I don''t want to! I only want to catch them alive! But I don''t have the technique like acupuncture sealing technique or restraining type treasure like sealing rope!''
Chapter 121 - 121: At Last... New Quest!
Chapter 121 - 121: At Last... New Quest!
''Eh... Wait a minute... I almost forgot that I have that!''
Tang Li Xue pulled out a long ck chain from her own extreme-rank space pouch and tried to identify its effect with her basic [All Knowing Eyes].
[Blood Sealing Chain]
[Description: The ck chain made from the strange meteorite. Capable of sealing the strength of the being it bound. This ck chain would drain their energy (stamina/Qi/vitality energy/spirit energy) nonstop to make itself harder and tougher.]
''Hehehehe... I took this ck chain from the fake dragon''s fortress before we escape out from the Asura Demon Sect. Sigh... Unfortunately, I could not take most of the ck chains since it embedded into the fortress'' wall.''
The ck chain on Tang Li Xue''s possession right now was used to bind the fake dragon''s four legs before but she could not take the ck chain that used to bind the fake dragon''s body since the tip of the chains was buried so deeply into the fortress wall.
''Hmm... Should I wait for them to fall asleep before I ambush them? NO! I am afraid they would be attacked by the other demonic beasts or foxes before that! Oh well, I will attack them now but before that, I need to call a helper! Yaya,e out!''
Tang Li Xue pressed the > button on the Yaya status window in her system and Yaya''s cute tiny figure appeared out of nowhere in front of Tang Li Xue.
Yaya opened her glittering emerald green eyes.
At first, Yaya looked around at confusion but she immediately pounced toward Tang Li Xue and hugged Tang Li Xue''s furry neck while giggling full of happiness.
"Ya? Yaya! Yayayaya~~" Yaya babbled with teary eyes while kept hugging Tang Li Xue as if she was saying that she misses Tang Li Xue greatly.
''Okay, I get it! Yaya really misses me. I miss Yaya greatly too! I am really sorry for storing Yaya inside there for a week but I did not have any choice before. Don''t worry... I promise we will be always together from now on!''
Yaya flew above Tang Li Xue''s head and circling her for a few times out of delight. Yaya hugged Tang Li Xue again and kissed Tang Li Xue''s furry right cheek a few times.
Then Tang Li Xue patiently exined to Yaya that she was in the trial right now and she needs to catch fifty humans to pass the trial. Now, she really needed Yaya''s help to do that.
Yaya pumped her tiny fist and puffed her cheek with a determined expression.
Tang Li Xue really wanted tough when she saw Yaya''s cute expression but she reminded Yaya once again with her thought: ''Remember Yaya! You can hurt them but do not kill them! We just need to beat them until they faint. ''Let''s go!''
Yaya nodded her tiny head repeatedly and followed behind Tang Li Xue.
''Hmm... System! I want to catch these group humans!'' Tang Li Xue tried to trigger a quest from her system but she still got no reaction even now.
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment when she heard no reaction from her system then she was thinking for a while.
''Maybe my statement is too vague for the system to understand. Let''s try it again and let''s stage up the difficulty this time!''
Tang Li Xue decided to try it once more.
'' System! I will catch fifty humans and sessfully pass the second trial!''
Ding!
[Quest: (Abductor) Catch fifty humans without killing them and pass the second trial!]
[Difficulty: Hard]
[Reward: Level +3(+1), Stat Point+45(+11), Skill Point+9(+2), 150(+38) Deity Coins]
''Uoooh! Finally! I sessfully trigger a mission after so long! My first mission after I left Asura Demon Sect! But... surprisingly, it is a hard difficulty quest?! But why? Oh well... Since I already trigger it, I only need to finish it!''
Tang Li Xue did not know that she could finish this trial easily if she did not trigger the quest!
The quest from the system was always like this.
If the difficulty was too lowpared with the host''s overall prowess then it would never create the quest for the host since the quest''s true function was to boost the host''s growth!
Moreover, the system quest judged the second trial difficulty was ''Hard'' for Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue did not realize what she had done, she activated her [Ethereal Form], and her cat-sized body turned transparent but the group of humans could still saw Yaya so clearly.
"Eh... what is that? A beast? No, is that a fairy?! Hei! All of you, look at what I find!" One of the humans wore luxury clothes shouted to call his friends.
"Woah! You are right what a rare beast! Let''s catch it! If we give it to the examiner, they will certainly be so happy and who knows if they ept us all as the inner disciples directly!" The other teenager stared at Yaya as if he was looking at a rare precious beast.
While all the people in this group distracted, Tang Li Xue jumped toward them from behind while canceling her [Ethereal Form].
Puufff... Puufff... Puufff...
Tang Li Xue''s move was so swift and her tiny body turned blur because of her speed.
"UGYAAAAAH!!! My eyes!" The three people fell down and rolling on the ground while holding onto their bloody eyes.
Tang Li Xue''s current speed was actually not even a half of the Fox Sith''s speed but it was more than enough to deal with these new sect disciples that have cultivation at the Body Tempering Stage or the Qi Condensation Stage.
The other four turned their attention to Tang Li Xue but before they have any chance to retaliate...
''Four more to go! Yaya!''
Yaya released four of her [Air Bullet], easily knocked the other four people''s heads, and make all of them fainted instantly.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya teamwork were really perfect and they did not even give any chance for these seven people to pull their weapons at all.
Unfortunately, before Tang Li Xue could rx...
PSSSSSSSH~~!!!
The two-tailed yellow-colored fox jumped out from the nearby bushes and bit one of the unconscious humans.
It easily tore his neck with its sharp fangs and threw his head into its leather pouch!
''Wha...!!! Dammit! Bast*rd thief! Give it back to me you bast*rd! Yaya, seize that yellow fox!''
Tang Li Xue was too shocked and could only react after a half-second passed.
The two-tailed yellow-colored fox instantly activated its [Shadow Clone] divine ability and its dog-sized body splitting into ten!
Three of them pounced toward Tang Li Xue while the rest targeted the other unconscious humans.
Yaya waved her tiny palm and shot several [Air Bullet] toward several shadow foxes at the same time but it only managed to hit two of them while the other dodged it easily.
Poff... Poff...
The two yellow foxes burst out and turned into white smoke.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Golden Body] then jumped to the three yellow foxes in front of her.
The four of them trapped in the melee battle of a few seconds and Tang Li Xue easily defeat the three yellow foxes using her ws and fangs!
Poff... Poff... Poff...
''All of them are only clones?! What an annoying divine ability?! Should I copy it using my [Mirror of the Moon]? Nope... without my me of Pride, I am currentlycking a powerful offensive skill! This [Heaven Splitting Wave (7thyer)] is a nice choice to cover my weakness. It has everything I need from the wide area of effect, prative effect, it even has a powerful attack!''
However, several unconscious humans would certainly be killed if Tang Li Xue used it now since [Heaven Splitting Wave (7thyer)] have a quite wide area of effect and she did not want that.
Tang Li Xue quickly stored the three blinded humans in front of her into her mid-rank space pouch. These three blinded humans were the nearest to her since they were her opponents before.
But the yellow fox and its shadow clones managed to im another three heads so, among the seven humans, Tang Li Xue only got three of them, while the yellow fox got four human heads!
Actually, if the yellow fox was smarter, it could store more unconscious humans first into its space pouch and escape first before taking their headster.
Tang Li Xue defeated three shadow clones while Yaya took down two of them. The rest five yellow fox and its shadow clones immediately ran scattered after it took four human heads from Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue and Yaya swiftly chase the yellow fox and managed to kill the other three but all of them were only shadow clones!
The real yellow fox was already gone without leaving any trace for Tang Li Xue to track.
Tang Li Xue could only curse the two-tailed yellow fox and its ancestor in her mind.
''Wait a minute... why I need to catch fifty humans by myself? I could just do like what that yellow fox does! I can just steal or rob the other foxes'' leather pouchter! I have my [Ethereal Form] anyway and I can easily sneak closer to any fox then silently took their space pouch before escaping again with my [Ethereal Form]!''
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter the more she thought about it.
''I am not the one to kill those humans and take their head anyway so I don''t need to feel guilty! I don''t even need to hurt any human! Uwehehehe...''
Tang Li Xue''s thought was really spot on but she clearly forgot something very important.
[Quest: (Abductor) Catch fifty humans without killing them and pass the second trial!]
''Oh... Sh*t! I really make a big blunder this time! Why the hell I make this kind of quest?! I should make a quest like [Collect twenty-five human heads without killing any humans and pass the second trial!] System.... Can I... Can I change the quest right now?''
Tang Li Xue facepalmed full of regret with her furry paw when her system did not reply to any of her requests.
But Tang Li Xue did not know if she requested for the quest like that, she would only get [Normal] difficulty quest with far lesser reward than her current quest.

.
The ck-haired girl yawned in boredom while sitting on the top of the rock. Shezily took out an old book from inside her space pouch and flipped its page one by one with her slender fingers.
The two-tailed small purple fox sat obediently behind her without doing anything.
But not long after that, there was the violent space fluctuation near them, the two-tailed small purple fox quickly stood up and put its battle stance full of vignce.
The circle of azure runes appeared on the ground out of nowhere, it shone brighter and brighter. The red-haired girl calmly walked out from inside the blinding circle of azure runes.
The bright circle of azure runes on the ground disappeared once again after the red-haired girl walked out from it.
The tiny purple fox sighed in relief after it saw the red-haired girl and it sat back down obediently near the ck-haired girl.
The red-haired girl frowned when she saw the tiny two-tailed purple fox sat beside the ck-haired girl.
"Mei Lan, what is this little fox doing here? All the foxes should take part in the second trial! Don''t tell me you are poaching this little fox to join your ss first! This is unfair! I want to poach some amazing ones for my ss too!" The red-haired girl stomped her feet in anger just like a little kid.
"Sigh... Zhiruo, you are the one that said you did not want your new shoes to get dirty by any mud before so you push the job to supervise the first trial to me and now you are the oneining about it?" The ck-haired girl named Mei Lan did not even turn her head away from her book and answered the red-haired girlzily.
"But... But... urggghhhh! Then I want this tiny purple fox to join my ss!" The red-haired girl named Zhiruo pulled the tiny two-tailed purple fox toward her and embraced it in her bouncy ample bosom.
Mei Lan nced at Zhiruo for a second and chuckled then she slowly exined: "That tiny purple fox has mind control type divine ability. What is the use of your Executor ss taking that fox? To make your assassination targets kill themselves?"
All participants including Tang Li Xue did not know that the Foxes Home was divided into three different division sses ording to their purpose, mission, and specialized divine ability.
The Inspector ss, the Executor ss, and the Elite ss!
The Inspector ss aimed to educate the fox candidate with the divine ability to inspect. Most of the missions they would receive were about searching for missing fox''s rtives, find rare materials or precious herbs or heavenly fruits, and solving some cases like the dispute between the demonic beasts or between the demonic beasts and humans. All of it was about helping someone, inspecting something, or finding some items.
The Executor ss aimed to educate the fox candidate with the divine ability specialized to kill. Most of the missions they would receive were about the assassination, tracking enemies or traitors, humans'' family or n extermination, everything that rted to taking anyone''s lives.
The Elite ss was like its name, the fox candidate in this ss was so powerful and omnipotent. They could do everything since their divine ability could cover everything too from assassination to inspection. But their number was so meager that they could only take the most important and crucial mission.
All the foxes in the Elite ss also got the best treatment and resources in the entire Foxes Home!
However, only the first foxes that the examiner chose to enter Foxes Home without any need to pass the trial would be eligible to join the Elite ss like the [Thunder and Lightning Caller Fox], the [White cial Frost Fox], and the [Fox Sith].
Tang Li Xue and the other in this second trial could only choose to join the Inspector ss or the Executor ss in the end after they passed all the trials.
If the first trial were to test every participant''s truebat prowess, their ability to adapt in any situation, and their willpower then this second trial was held to assess the participant''s attitude.
Most of the foxes havee from the wilderness and they did not mind killing any humans or beasts toplete any trials or missions.
However, it did not mean that all the foxes were like that!
Tang Li Xue was actually not the only foxes that could not kill humans if the situation did not force them to do so.
Some of the foxes had a very deep bond with humans before.
The reason was actually very simple. They have been adopted by humans since they were a cub before and then the human along with his/her family raised that fox with love and care.
But the human''s family that adopted the fox died in the end because of the various reasons from robbing, disease, or old age since the beast in Immortal World has a very long life span.
Even the human with high cultivation could only live for a few thousand years while any demonic beasts could easily live for many hundreds of thousand years.
Actually, most of the demonic beasts died because they were being hunted and killed by the human race rather than because of the disease or old age.
After its master died, those foxes decided toe here and join into the Foxes Home but they still held some deep bonds with humans in their hearts and they would never kill any human without any good reason.
This kind of foxes should never be allowed to join the Executor ss and could only join the Inspector ss!
So the foxes who were allowed to choose between the Inspector ss and the Executor sster were the ones that bring back the human heads.
The foxes that bring back the detained living humanster could only be allowed to join the Inspector ss!
The ck-haired girl, Mei Lan was one of the instructors from the Inspector ss.
While the red-haired girl, Zhiruo was one of the instructors from the Executor ss.
Zhiruo frowned when she heard the tiny purple fox had mind-control type divine ability and she immediately threw the tiny purple fox away in displeasure.
The Executor ss did not need any fancy orplicated divine ability users like mind-control. They only need something simpler and straight forward but more lethal like the fox with freezing divine ability or pure strength type divine ability like the [Demonic Blood Fox].
To put it simpler, the Inspector ss needs the candidate with the divine ability that can be used widely in any kind of situation while the Executor ss needs the candidate with extremely lethal divine ability.
"Okay, don''t be angry. You can take that strong big ck fox to join your ss. How about it? Are you satisfied?" Mei Lan sighed and readily yield the [Demonic Blood Fox] to Zhiruo''s Executor ss.
"I don''t like and don''t want that big stupid fox! It is already so old but its strength is only so-so! Its body is reeks of blood and it also nearly lost its mind in ughter and madness! Even if it joins my ss, I would certainly kill it sooner orter when it no longer listens to my instruction!" Zhiruo frowned in disgust when she remembered about the [Demonic Blood Fox].
All the candidates and instructors in Executor had killed countless people and beasts but they never did it for the hobby.
They did it because it was their mission and they would get abundant rewards after theypleted their mission. They could use that reward to enhance their strength further and enabled them to evolve faster to the next rank.
The fox like the [Demonic Blood Fox] that killing for hobby and pleasure would easily drown in madness and it could easily go berserk at any moment was like a time bomb.
No one wanted this kind of fox to join their ss since it could stab anyone in their ss at a crucial moment!
Mei Lan sneered at Zhiruo and softly warned her: "But you have to ept that big bad fox into your ss whether you want it or not. If I am not wrong, that big ck fox... have a big brother in Elite ss."
Zhiruo frowned deeper when she heard what Mei Lan told her. It was clear that Mei Lan leaked a bit of information about the [Demonic Blood Fox] to her secretly out of worry if Zhirou really made some reckless move to the [Demonic Blood Fox].
All of the Elite ss disciples have very high status and even Instructors could not do anything to punish them if they make any mistake.
Zhiruo snorted in annoyance and decided not to bring up the topic about the [Demonic Blood Fox] again since the Mei Lan already secretly warned her with a few words.
"You can take that small purple fox but I want the white fox in my ss instead!" Zhiruo pouted and sat beside Mei Lan.
"White fox? The one with the ice type divine ability?" Mei Lan raised her head again and stared at Zhiruo with a mix of puzzlement and curiosity.
"Nope! I want the savage beast one, the silver-white fox! That little ck fox''spanion!" Zhiruo giggled and pointed more clearly.
"The savage beast one? Why? Hmm... Oh, I know it. Let me guess. That little ck fox refused to enter the Elite ss and it wants to enter the same ss as its sweetheart, right? That little ck fox is really cute and loyal! Not bad, I really like it." Mei Lan lowered her head once again and back to read her book while guessed everything so easily.
Mei Lan was an Instructor from the Inspector ss so guessing something simple like this was not even a challenge for her. Actually, she even solved many cases far moreplicated than guessing this before.
Zhiruo rolled her crimson eyes and puffed her cheek in anger when she heard Mei Lan''s guess. Mei Lan actually managed to guess everything so spot on.
Zhiruo was an Instructor from the Executor ss so her battle prowess was very high. In the battle, she could probably defeat Mei Lan but in the term of wit and wisdom, Mei Lan clearly far surpassed Zhiruo by miles away.
"We will see about itter! That silver-white fox is the one who has the right to make the final decision for itself in the end." Mei Lan turned the book''s page on her hands whilezily said it.
''Humph! We will see it then! I am really sure that silver-white fox would join my sster! Heh... Who wants to enter theplicated Inspector ss if they could kill anyone and eat it happily if they join the Executor ss?" Zhiruo stuck out her tongue to Mei Lan while said in full of confidence.

Chapter 123 - 123: (Spoiler Title at the Bottom of This Chapter)

...
.
Tang Li Xue was still fuming with rage for what happened before but she could not do anything since she could not find any trace of that yellow fox.
She pulled out the three people from her mid-rank space pouch and tied them all tightly using her [Blood Sealing Chain] before stored all of them inside her mid-rank space pouch again.
Yaya sat on the top of Tang Li Xue quietly, she felt really guilty because she could not stop that thief fox from killing and stealing those humans from Tang Li Xue.
Although, Tang Li Xue alreadyforted her and said it was not her fault at all but she still decided to work harder and make up for itter.
Tang Li Xue walked around the dark forest for a few hours until the sun almost rise and the skies also turned brighter.
She discovered many headless corpses scattered around but still did not manage to find a single living human.
Tang Li Xue frowned and she also finally felt some urgency.
''All of these foxes are really the true elites! They work so fast and their efficiency is also really high! If this continues, I would never be able to catch any humans anymore! Rather than loitering around here and wait for the humans toe, I must enter deeper into the forest and find them as fast as I can!''
Tang Li Xue decided to use her [Blink] skill repeatedly and entered deeper into the forest with unimaginable speed.
Tang Li Xue knew that the danger she would be facing would be increasing exponentially if she kept entering deeper into the forest but she had no choice right now.
She needs to catch another forty-seven living humans toplete her quest and finish this second trial after all.
The sun rose higher and higher when Tang Li Xue dashed deeper into the forest, she also killed several demonic beasts she met on her way for her and Yaya''s breakfast.
Although the high dense bushes and giant tall trees obstructed her vision but Tang Li Xue could still detect everything around her so clearly using her advanced sense of smell and hearing.
Tang Li Xue''s nose twitched a bit and she immediately stopped running.
''Hmm... This is the human smell! Sigh... Finally, I find some humans. I almost thought that all humans here have been killed by those foxes.''
Tang Li Xue also felt strange after contemting it for a few hours before while kept running.
As a former human, she should feel nausea, sick, afraid, and panic when she saw many headless human corpses or when the yellow foxes beheaded the humans'' heads in front of her.
But unfortunately, she did not feel that way!
The first thing appeared in her mind when she saw many headless human corpses were ''I am so hungry'', ''Can I eat this?'', and ''I want to try to taste it!''.
This fact made her felt insecure and ufortable. She felt that she was getting more and more inhuman, and grow closer to be the genuine beast.
What if someday she could kill and ate humans every day but felt nothing just like when she ate raw beast meat every day now?
What if someday she would lose her humanity and started to feel great hatred and resentment toward humans too like what the other beasts felt toward humans?
Tang Li Xue shook her furry head. She put all of her worries and doubt deep inside her heart for now and activated her [Ethereal Form]. Her tiny furry figure instantly turned invisible.
Tang Li Xue also summoned out her martial soul, the [Flying Golden Fish] out to scout the situation of those humans in front of her. Since Tang Li Xue was still in her [Ethereal Form], her martial soul currently also in the same state as her right now.
She also ordered Yaya to follow her while kept hiding near her. Yaya could not see Tang Li Xue when she was in her [Ethereal Form] but Yaya could clearly sense Tang Li Xue''s presence thanks to their connection through Tang Li Xue''s system.
Tang Li Xue saw several humans fighting with a panther-like demonic beast through her the [Flying Golden Fish]''s vision.
The panther demonic beast was not really strong since its grade was only at [Umon] grade but its movement speed and reaction speed was quite fast.
Several humans who facing it were already battered and their body was full of scratching wounds but they still refuse to give up and kept fighting.
Tang Li Xue counted the total number of humans there silently from behind the bushes near them.
''There are eight humans in total. Not a bad harvest! That ck tiger is almost exhausted. I will wait until they finish their battle before ambushing them with Yaya!''
The human team and ck tiger fierce battle kept going for a few minutes before the ck tiger stunned for a few seconds because of its exhaustion and the human team took that chance to stab their weapons onto the ck tiger''s weak points.
No one dead in the human team but several of them received some severe injuries on their neck or their chest due to the ck tiger''s sharp w or bite.
Tang Li Xue took this chance when all the humans in that group were still extremely exhausted from their fierce battle against the ck tiger tounch an ambush!
She also ordered Yaya with her mind to attack along with her using the [Air Bullet] to knock them out until they faint or [Gale Prison] to restrain their move.
Yaya flew toward the group of humans while using her [Gale Step]. Her tiny green figure was moving at an amazing speed like an arrow.
BANG... BANG... BANG...
Yaya knocked out the three fatally injured humans with her [Air Bullet] until they fainted!
The rest of the humans immediately stood up and raised their guard. They gripped their weapon tightly but they still confused about who attacked theirrades just now since Yaya''s movement was too fast and they did not even see her until now.
Tang Li Xue jumped onto the shoulder of one human in the group and canceled her [Ethereal Form].
Her sharp ws moved criss-cross in blurry because of her unbelievable speed.
PUFF... PUFF..... PUFF... PPPSSSHHHHHH...
"AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!" The three other humans fell down while holding onto their eyes.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] back and her tiny furry figure turned transparent once again.
''Six down! Two more to go!''
The other two humans looked at all of their fainted friends in panic and horror then looked around them in confusion.
They did not even manage to see Tang Li Xue''s shadow when she attacked before she turned on her [Ethereal Form] again like now.
The other two humans decided to abandon their fainted friends and ran away by themselves.
''Yaya!''
Yaya nodded her head toward Tang Li Xue and used her [Gale Prison]!
The other two humans that trying to run away were trapped inside the violent tornado and could not move right now.
Tang Li Xue pounced toward them swiftly to finish them but her sharp ears heard some sounds of something move from behind the nearby bushes.
''Dammit! Not again!''
Tang Li Xue turned off her [Ethereal Form] and twisted her body on mid-air then somersault back onto where she stood before.
She decided to abandon the two humans in front of her and hastily threw the six fainted humans into her mid-rank space pouch.
ROOOOAAAAAARRRRR~~!!!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] jumped out from the bushes while roaring out loud!
"AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!"
It used its sharp ws and fangs to tear the two restrained humans'' limbs and bodies to tiny pieces only leaving their heads behind!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] licked the blood on its mouth with an intoxicated expression for a while then red at Tang Li Xue with the intense murderous intent!
Tang Li Xue''s expression also turned solemn but she did not afraid at all. She even stared back at the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s blood-red eyes.
Their eyes met with each other and their pressure also shed head-on.
Actually, Tang Li Xue could activate her [Ethereal Form] and ran away safely to avoid any conflict with this [Demonic Blood Fox] but she already decided not to do it.
She was extremely fed up with this [Demonic Blood Fox] intolerable bullying before and she already decided to teach this arrogant fox a very harsh lesson the next time she met with it!
Tang Li Xue even had a thought of killing this [Demonic Blood Fox] if they were really not under the examiner''s supervision but she decided to not kill it now. At least, not under this trial or inside Foxes Home...
The [Demonic Blood Fox] was the first one to make the move!
It sprinted toward Tang Li Xue with its full speed and its big sturdy body turned blurry in an instant.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] opened its mouth that full of sharp fangs wide and bite Tang Li Xue''s tiny body forcefully.
However, Tang Li Xue immediately activated her [Ethereal Form] the moment its sharp fangs almost touched her!
BAAAAAAANGGGG~~!!!
The [Demonic Blood Fox]''s attack missed and it only managed to bite the empty air. It looked around trying to find where Tang Li Xue was.
But right now, Tang Li Xue was actually running under the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s stomach!
Tang Li Xue turned off her [Ethereal Form] and used her own sharp w to cut the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s stomach!
PUUUUUFFFFF~~!!!
Even with the [Demonic Blood Fox] tough and hard muscle, Tang Li Xue''s sharp w could still easily prate into its skin and cut its flesh!
''Yaya! Now!''
Yaya already wanted to help Tang Li Xue since a long time ago but Tang Li Xue ordered her to wait.
Yaya actually could not wait anymore to help Tang Li Xue but she still patiently wait for Tang Li Xue''s signal.
So Yaya cast several [Wind des] the moment she heard Tang Li Xue''s words!
When the [Demonic Blood Fox] still distracted because of Tang Li Xue''s sudden attacks under its body, several of Yaya''s [Wind des] sliced the four of its limbs!
Tang Li Xue could see that her victory was already on her sight but she also felt a bit doubtful.
''Is the [Rare] grade demonic beast really this weak?''
Chapter 123: Tang Li Xue VS The Demonic Blood Fox!
Chapter 124 - 124: Demonic Blood Foxs Frightening Divine Ability!
Chapter 124 - 124: Demonic Blood Fox''s Frightening Divine Ability!
''But aren''t this big fox is too weak?! It is still a [Rare] grade demonic beast after all... even though its qualification is only at [Normal] rank but it should still have... OH NO! YAYA, STAY AWAY FROM IT!''
Tang Li Xue''s body shuddered the moment she remembered that a [Rare] grade demonic beast would at least have one divine ability!
And this [Demonic Blood Fox] had never used its divine ability until now!
Yaya instantly used her [Gale Step] and flew backward when she heard Tang Li Xue''s warning.
Yaya''s speed was really fast but unfortunately, the [Demonic Blood Fox]'' s attack was even faster!
PPPSSSSSSHHH~~!!!
Something incredibly sharp puncturing Yaya''s right shoulder!
-3,251!
[HP: 5,541/8,800]
Yaya''s toughness stats was the lowest amongst all of her other stats so her defense was also low. This one lethal attack almost took half of her current HP!
The [Demonic Blood Fox]'' s attack also targeted Tang Li Xue at the same time, it flew toward Tang Li Xue''s body and head with unavoidable speed!
Tang Li Xue was not capable of dodging its attack with her current speed but she still could activate her [Ethereal Form] to make its attack miss!
The moment the [Demonic Blood Fox]'' s attacks almost filled Tang Li Xue''s body with holes, she immediately activated her [Ethereal Form] and make all of its attacks missed then stabbing onto the ground below Tang Li Xue''s feet!
Tang Li Xue also activated her [Blink] skill to keep her distance from the [Demonic Blood Fox] and she dashed toward Yaya''s direction.
Tang Li Xue managed to catch the falling Yaya with both of her paws before she dropped onto the ground!
Tang Li Xue was very surprised when she saw what the [Demonic Blood Fox] used to attack Yaya and her.
''What the hell is this? Needle? Or... blood?''
It was actually several crimson-colored needles made from the [Demonic Blood Fox] own blood!
Tang Li Xue red at the [Demonic Blood Fox] and she found out that it still stood there as if it did not receive any injuries and sneered at Tang Li Xue mockingly.
Tang Li Xue immediately understood what the divine ability of the [Demonic Blood Fox] truly was!
[Blood Maniption]!
It was the divine ability that made the [Demonic Blood Fox] capable to manipte its own blood into different shapes ording to its own will just like this blood needle!
Looking at the [Demonic Blood Fox] right now, Tang Li Xue guessed its [Blood Maniption] divine ability also capable to act as adhesive to close all of its wounds.
All of the wounds on the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s body were vanished and only leaving some thread-like red marks.
''What a fearsome divine ability!!!''
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper. She shifted her attention back to the unconscious Yaya.
The crimson needle made from the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s blood already turned back into its red liquid state and it even started to entered Yaya''s body through the bloody hole at her right shoulder.
-326, -378, -411, -425, -446, ...
[HP: 3,555/8,800]
Tang Li Xue turned even more solemn when she realized what happened.
There would only be two oues when the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s blood managed to invade Yaya''s body.
Whether Yaya would die because the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s blood would attack her internal organ or the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s blood would control Yaya''s body from inside!
Whatever the oue was, Tang Li Xue would not like it so she immediately thinks some ways to expel the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s blood from Yaya''s tiny body!
Unfortunately, the [Demonic Blood Fox] would never let Tang Li Xue have any chance to think at all. It charged to Tang Li Xue once again using all of its speed and momentum!
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs in rage and held Yaya''s tiny fragile body tightly with both of her paws then rolled aside to avoid being trampled by the [Demonic Blood Fox]!
PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF...
Several blood needles flew out from the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s body and shot toward Tang Li Xue again when she was stillying on the ground with Yaya.
''Dammit! What a bast*rd!''
Tang Li Xue could activate her [Ethereal Form] again to avoid it but if she did that, all of these blood needles would certainly stab into Yaya''s tiny body and fill it full of holes.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes turned into dark blue with the deep-blue me zing fiercely in the deepest part of her eyes.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] felt an extremely dangerous aura emitting out from Tang Li Xue''s tiny body. It swiftly followed its beastly instinct and retreat to keep its distance from Tang Li Xue.
Because the [Demonic Blood Fox] sudden retreat, it momentarily lost its control over the blood needles and all of the blood needles missed its target by an inch and stabbed onto the grassy ground around Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue actually reflexively wanted to use her me of Pride to burn all the blood needles when it almost stabbed into her body but since it changed its direction a bit and missed, Tang Li Xue decided to not use her me of Pride anymore.
Tang Li Xue did not n to use her me of Pride under the examiner''s eyes but it did not mean she would rather die than using it!
If the situation turned critical and her life was in great danger, she would never hesitate to use her me of Pride along with her current most lethal divine abilities, [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs]!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] did not dare to attack Tang Li Xue recklessly again like before after it sensed the dangerous auraing from Tang Li Xue''s tiny body.
It only stared at Tang Li Xue full of vignce but there was doubt, unsure, and suspicion mixed in its blood-red eyes.
Tang Li Xue did not have spare time to guess what exactly the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s currently thought in its mind.
Tang Li Xue observed Yaya''s wound full of worry and nervousness while her brain kept working at full speed trying to find a way to save Yaya.
All of the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s blood from the blood needle before already invaded Yaya''s body.
[HP: 2,439/8,800]
Yaya''s HP kept dropping lower and lower. The amount of her HP decreasing has also got higher and higher.
Yaya was m.o.a.ning in pain with her sweet childish voice and her body also kept writhing ufortably. Cold sweat kept pouring out from her forehead and her tiny cute face turned paler like a piece of white paper.
Although, Yaya was the almighty Elf-Type Wind Elemental Spirit but she was still too young and weak right now. Her current age had not even reached one month old!
If she was stronger like her parents, the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s blood would never be able to hurt or invade her body.
Tang Li Xue felt her heart aching greatly and suffocating as if it was stabbed by countless knives when she saw Yaya''s suffering.
''What should I do now to save her? Should I store her back into system space? No! That bast*rd blood is in her body so it may also follow her and enter system space too!''
''And... even if that bast*rd blood is forced out when Yaya enters the system space, there is no guarantee that her injury would get better there! What if her injury gets worse instead?! There is only one choice left!''
[HP: 1,127/8,800]
''Her HP already reached the critical level! There is no more time! I have to bet everything on this move!''
Tang Li Xue released Yaya from her paws and put her on the grassy ground in front of her.
''Yaya! [Divine Possession]!''
Tang Li Xue did not know if Yaya could hear her voice right now but she decided to try it anyway.
The first time they did their [Divine Possession], Yaya was the one who initiated it.
But right now... Tang Li Xue was the one who initiated it!
Yaya''s tiny body turned into a green light and flew to Tang Li Xue''s forehead.
Like what Tang Li Xue guessed before, the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s blood did not follow Yaya and assimte into her!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] in Yaya''s body was left behind when Yaya turned into a green light and spilled onto the grassy ground below her.
Ding!
[Divine Possession has been initialized by the host!]
[Divine Possession duration: 00:10:00]
The first time Tang Li Xue and Yaya did their [Divine Possession], its duration was only three minutes but now its duration increased to ten minutes!
Because Tang Li Xue and Yaya were not only be even stronger than before but their bond with each other also tighter than before, that was the reason why their [Divine Possession] duration extended more than three times longer.
The two pairs of beautiful fairy wings have grown on Tang Li Xue''s back. The crystal colored fairy wings matched perfectly with Tang Li Xue''s silver-white fur.
Tang Li Xue could felt Yaya''s presence inside her body.
Yaya already regained her consciousness back after she assimted with Tang Li Xue and she was feeling very happy and excited right now because she became one with Tang Li Xue once again!
The gentle wind power caress Tang Li Xue''s entire body made her veryfortable and rxed.
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes and felt a close connection with the entire air and wind on her surroundings.
She really missed this feeling very much after doing [Divine Possession] with Yaya for the first time before.
The feeling of having every air on her surrounding at her beck and call was very intoxicating and addictive.
After savoring this incredible sensation for a while, Tang Li Xue slowly opened her eyes again and staring at the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s dumbfounded expression in front of her coldly.
Her beautiful pair of topaz blue eyes turned into the pair of glittering emerald eyes right now. Just like a pair of green stars, it was both enchanting and mysterious.
"Are you ready? Let''s begin our round two!''
Chapter 125 - 125: Counterattack!
Chapter 125 - 125: Counterattack!
The Blue Phoenix of Pride was still hibernatingfortably in its own cocoon inside Tang Li Xue''s Dantian so Yaya''s wind elemental power inside Tang Li Xue''s body did not sh and blend perfectly in harmony with the Blue Phoenix of Pride''s me power?like before.
This time, Yaya''s wind elemental powerpletely filled every inch of Tang Li Xue''s tiny body without any sign of the me of Pride''s power interrupting it at all!
Tang Li Xue could also control me of Pride even if the Blue Phoenix of Pride was still in its hibernation but since she did not n to use it anyway, she decided to seal the me of Pride power deep inside her Dantian so she did not identally use it when she fights against [Demonic Blood Fox]ter.
Tang Li Xue peeked at her status window to see her current HP.
[HP: 64,327/72,000]
Tang Li Xue''s HP and Yaya''s HP was actually added into one when they were in their [Divine Possession] mode.
Tang Li Xue almost wanted tough out loud when she saw that. She did not even need to activate her [Golden Body] divine ability to heal this tiny wound.
Tang Li Xue wondered if it also means that Yaya''s fatal wound would be fully recovered if she could finish this battle with full HPter?
+936, +936, +936.....
Tang Li Xue''s [Regeneration] ability already automatically started to recover her HP.
AAAAWWOOOOOO~~!!!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] howled out loud and startled the current absentminded Tang Li Xue.
The [Demonic Blood Fox]''s started to seep out from every pore of its ox-sized tough body.
If Tang Li Xue did not know the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s divine ability beforehand, she would think this [Demonic Blood Fox] tried tomit suicide now.
It was clear that the [Demonic Blood Fox] felt Tang Li Xue''s aura and pressure had grown far stronger after she entered her [Divine Possession] form with Yaya so it also decided to stop ying around and get extra serious!
Tang Li Xue did not like to wait when her enemy transformed into its stronger next form like in RPG game so she instantly decided to bombard the [Demonic Blood Fox] with her attacks before it could finish what it was currently doing right now.
[Wind des]!
The surrounding airpressed and formed into several tens of sharp wind des in an instant.
Several tens of sharp wind des flew toward the [Demonic Blood Fox] at once with the speed far surpassing the sound speed.
The loud bang noises resounded nonstop just like the sound of several big firecrackers exploded.
The dust on the ground around the [Demonic Blood Fox] flew everywhere and obstructed Tang Li Xue''s vision but Tang Li Xue somewhat knew that the [Demonic Blood Fox] would never be defeated that easily.
As if it was answering Tang Li Xue''s doubt, several blood-colored sharp daggers flew out from behind the dust-covered area where the [Demonic Blood Fox] stood before.
Its target was obviously Tang Li Xue and all the blood daggers'' speed also did not lose too muchpared with Tang Li Xue''s [Wind des] speed!
Unfortunately, in front of Tang Li Xue''s eyes in her [Divine Possession] form, these blood daggers were moving at snail pace!
The higher one''s agility stat, the speed boost one''s got from it would also decrease.
For example, when someone increased their agility stats from 1 to 100, their speed might be increased by 100 times than before.
But when they increase the agility stats from 100 to 1,000, it did not mean they speed would increase by 10 times too! It would probably increase their speed by 2 to 3 times at best.
Why?
The reason was simple. It was because when someone moving faster, they would be facing air or wind resistance. When they reached sound speed, they would even be facing an invisible air wall.
In this Immortal World filled with dense spirit energy, they would even need to face the pressure waves from that dense spirit energy when they tried to move faster than sound speed!
In order to face all of that, someone would need proper strength to forcefully tear all of those obstacles!
But to use that great strength properly, they would need a strong body to support it since you could never use super strength with a paper-like body.
So agility, strength, and toughness stats were actually knitted so tightly each other!
But with Yaya''s ability as Wind Elemental Spirit, she could easily bypass all of these restrictions and always move at her top speed!
All Elemental Spirits were the nature''s most beloved darling after all!
Every time Yaya moves, she would never face any restrictions such as air friction, wind resistance, invisible air wall, or spirit energy pressure waves.
And Tang Li Xue also felt this effect when she was in her [Divine Possession] form with Yaya!
It could be easily imagined when Yaya''s powerbined with Tang Li Xue''s massive stats. Especially her current speed, it was increased so explosively!
Tang Li Xue flew upward swiftly with her pair of crystal fairy wings only leaving behind several after images on her path and dodged those blood daggers easily.
But who knows that the several blood daggers also changed its direction and flew upward, following closely behind Tang Li Xue like the homing missile in her previous world!
Tang Li Xue tilted her body to the right and left easily dodged the several blood daggers'' attacks many times but it still pursuit her again and again.
Tang Li Xue frowned. She decided to stop dodging and used her [Air Bullet] to knock the several blood daggers away.
[Air Bullet]!
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
The several blood daggers crashed violently with Tang Li Xue''s [Air Bullet], it lost its momentum and spinning on the mid-air while flying backward then finally stabbing deeply onto the ground.
However, it did not take long before the several blood daggers pulled themselves out from the ground and flying again.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] walked out from the dust area while the several blood daggers flew back and hovering above its head.
Tang Li Xue squinted her emerald green eyes in shock, surprise, and disbelief.
The current [Demonic Blood Fox] was vastly different from before!
Its robust body was now covered in thick blood-colored armor from head to toe. There were many sharp blood des attached to its four limbs along with its right side, left side, and even its backside.
There was even a dagger-sized sharp blood de attached on the top of its head like a unicorn.
Even the tip of its three tails equipped with sharp blood des just like arge scorpion with three tails.
The current [Demonic Blood Fox] was just like a heavy armored red chariot with sharp blood des on every part of its body.
There were also twelve sharp blood daggers hovering above its head right now.
It was not surprising that all of Tang Li Xue''s [Wind des] before was failed to prate the current [Demonic Blood Fox] heavy blood armor.
''Holysh*t! How could this bast*rd blood make those kinds of things?! Ok, you have great control over your divine ability but... but are the blood in your body even enough to make all of those things?! You are clearly cheating!''
Actually, the [Demonic Blood Fox] already stored its own blood little by little in its own space pouch since a long time ago.?Of course, it did not use the one it got from the ck-haired girl. It has its own space pouch since the very start.
Currently, it had many barrels of its own blood stored, enough for it to create several hundreds more of blood daggers.
Unfortunately, the amount of blood it controlled right now was its current limit when it wields its [Blood Maniption] divine ability. The [Demonic Blood Fox] was not capable of controlling more blood than this for now.
ROOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRRRR~~!!!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] roared loudly and charged to Tang Li Xue!
The ground and surrounding trees and bushes were trembling violently on every step of the [Demonic Blood Fox] took!
Twelve blood daggers hovered above its head also shooting toward Tang Li Xue at the same time!
Tang Li Xue raised her paws and pointed at the twelve blood daggers that heading toward her!
[Gale Prison]!
Tang Li Xue felt very annoyed by these twelve homing blood daggers a lot so she decided to use her [Gale Prison] to restrict these things'' movement for now.
Twelve blood daggers were currently trapped inside the fierce giant tornado and could do nothing other than fly aimlessly inside it.
Then Tang Li Xue was looking at the [Demonic Blood Fox] that still running toward her and say in her mind: ''Let''s see how hard that blood armor of yours really is!''
Tang Li Xue''s [Divine Possession] has limited duration so she never nned to y around with the [Demonic Blood Fox] for too long.
She decided to use her strongest move to shatter the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s heavy armor andpletely overpowered it!
Tang Li Xue raised her right paw high and forcefully swung it down using all of her strength.
[Cyclone sh]!
Tang Li Xue''s movement generated a giant tall tornado in front of her and it flew forward with such an unimaginable speed.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] stopped its sprint suddenly when it saw the giant tall tornado heading toward it.
Its sudden brake left some deep tracks on the ground but unfortunately, it was still toote for the [Demonic Blood Fox] to dodge the giant tall tornado!
BAAAAAAAAAAANGGG!!!
The giant tall tornadopressed from countless sharp wind des crashed heavily with the heavy armored [Demonic Blood Fox].
The [Demonic Blood Fox] entire body swallowed by the giant tall tornado and Tang Li Xue could hear rapid banging sounds made from the countlesspressed wind des crashed onto its thick blood heavy armor.
The giant tall tornado''s speed did not drop at all even after it swallowed the [Demonic Blood Fox] and still flew forward, destroying everything on its path!
''Eat that you bast*rd! I hope you like my gift to reciprocate your intolerable bullying!''
Chapter 126 - 126: Failure!
Chapter 126 - 126: Failure!
RAAAAAAWWWWWRRRRR~~!!!
When the loud roar started to reverberating, the tall giant tornado color started to turn into crimson red!
Tang Li Xue was startled when she saw that change and immediately raised her vignce but she still kept observing to find out what was the [Demonic Blood Fox] trying to do.
BAAAAAAAAANGGGGGGG~~!!!
The tall giant tornado actually broke apart after its color turned crimson red like blood.
Tang Li Xue guessed that the [Demonic Blood Fox] was somehow using its own blood to cancel her [Cyclone sh]!
Tang Li Xue''s guess was actually only half correct. The moment the tall giant tornado''s color turned blood red, it already became the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s [Cyclone sh].
The principle was the same as how the hacker took control of otherputers but the [Demonic Blood Fox] used its own blood as the medium to take control of Tang Li Xue''s [Cyclone sh].
In fact, if the [Demonic Blood Fox] had the power to control the wind element, it could even control Tang Li Xue''s [Cyclone sh] and made it flew back toward her!
Unfortunately, the [Demonic Blood Fox] did not have any power to control the wind element so it could only break the giant tornado to free itself.
Tang Li Xue frowned when she saw the [Demonic Blood Fox] could actually break free from Yaya''s best move.
While the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s twelve blood daggers also managed to break out from her [Gale Prison] by merging themselves into one giant broadsword and forcefully cut open the [Gale Prison]''s restriction.
''What a bother... Yaya''s wind element ability is actually perfectly countered by this bast*rd [Blood Maniption] divine ability! Its [Blood Maniption] weakness should be fire or lightning element. Unfortunately, I cannot use my me of Pride now or this battle should be already over by now! Sigh...''
But it did not mean that Tang Li Xue did not have any other way to win against the [Demonic Blood Fox]. Tang Li Xue''s eyes glinted coldly as she started to let out some faint killing intent.
The giant sharp broadsword flew above Tang Li Xue and it swung down with the speed that harder to see with n.a.k.e.d eyes just like the flying guillotine de which wanted to take the person''s head.
Tang Li Xue pped her crystal colored fairy wings and flying a few inches to the right side.
She easily dodged the giant broadsword''s attack but the giant broadsword still refused to give up and attacked Tang Li Xue again and again monotonously like ying whack-a-mole.
Tang Li Xue was swaying her furry tiny body to the right and left and avoided all of its attacks leisurely but she started to get extremely annoyed by it so she waved her paw once again and sending the giant broadsword flying away with several of her [Air Bullets]!
Who knows after she was sending the giant broadsword away, the [Demonic Blood Fox] already arrived near her.
It wanted to use its sturdy heavy armored body that full of sharp blood des and crashed it onto Tang Li Xue''s fragile tiny body.
But how could Tang Li Xue just let that happen!
In front of the current Tang Li Xue''s eyes, all of the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s movement was too slow.
Actually, not only the [Demonic Blood Fox], but she felt everything on her surrounding was moving at slow motion when she was in her [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya.
However, Tang Li Xue was miscalcted this time!
Tang Li Xue felt a chill down on her spine when she saw the [Demonic Blood Fox] sneered mockingly at her.
Tang Li Xue instantly knew. She made a big mistake this time!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] never nned to crash its heavy armored body with Tang Li Xue''s tiny body since the very start!
BBBBOOOOOOOOMMMMMM~~!!!
Its thick outeryer blood armor actually exploded when the [Demonic Blood Fox] managed to approach Tang Li Xue!
The thick blood armor turned into countless tiny shrapnel and flying everywhere with inconceivable speed.
Tang Li Xue was currently only a few inches away from the [Demonic Blood Fox] so the[Demonic Blood Fox] was very sure that even with Tang Li Xue''s current speed, she would never be able to dodge its surprise attacks this time!
Tang Li Xue''s emerald green eyes were glittering even brighter as she was trying to catch every single movement of the blood armor shrapnel in front of her eyes.
She also realized that she would never be able to dodge everything with her current speed so she activated her [Gale Step] to boost her speed even more!
After avoiding six shrapnel with great difficulty, Tang Li Xue finally reached her limit when several tens of shrapnel flew toward her at once.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs and forcefully activated her other skill!
[Gale Step]..... plus [Blink]!
Tang Li Xue''s tiny figure started to flickering around leaving behind countless afterimages every time she moves. She dodged every shrapnel when it only a few millimeters away from hitting her fragile body.
Her current speed was so high that even the [Demonic Blood Fox] could not see Tang Li Xue''s movement with its eyes. It could only watch Tang Li Xue''s countless blurry after images with an expression full of shock and disbelief.
Tang Li Xue tiny figure appeared right in front of the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s face so suddenly after she managed to dodge every single shrapnel from its thick blood armor.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] was so shocked that it subconsciously wanted to retreat backward as fast as it could but how could Tang Li Xue let it do that!
The 7thyer of [Heaven Splitting Wave]!
Moreover, Tang Li Xue aimed her attack precisely right at the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s forehead!
Tang Li Xue''s n was really simple.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] still has the secondyer of blood armor protecting all of its body parts right now and attacking its body parts was also useless since with its [Blood Maniption] divine ability, it would never bleed to death. It could even mend any wounds or broken bones easily with this divine ability.
Since it was like that, Tang Li Xue decided to use her [Heaven Splitting Wave (7thyer)] to directly destroy its brain!
She refused to believe that if she destroyed the [Demonic Blood Fox] directly with her prative strike, it could still mend it with its [Blood Maniption] divine abilityter!
The [Demonic Blood Fox] had never felt its death so close before like now.
BAAAAAAAAANGGGGGGG~~!!!
SPLAAAASH!!!
The moment Tang Li Xue''s 7thyer of [Heaven Splitting Wave] hit The [Demonic Blood Fox]''s forehead, its entire body exploded and turned into arge amount of blood.
Arge amount of blood sshed everywhere painted the surrounding ground and grasses with crimson red color.
Tang Li Xue instantly used her [Gale Step] plus her [Blink] skill again to take some distance and she managed to avoid any [Demonic Blood Fox]''s blood from touching her.
In fact, she really did not want its blood to touch her at all! Who knows if the [Demonic Blood Fox] could do something dangerous to her or track her locationter if she touched it!
Tang Li Xue inspected her surrounding but she did not manage to find the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s corpse.
She did not even manage to find any of the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s trace.
''Dammit! It is run away?! Coward! And here I think that all bullies like that bast*rd is unafraid of anything before! Sigh... what a waste of time! Oh well... at least I managed to get two space pouches from it!''
Tang Li Xue peeked into one of the space pouches and saw many human heads stored inside it.
Tang Li Xue freaked out a bit and quickly closed the space pouch. She was really sure now that big bully definitely could not count since the human heads stored inside its space pouch was probably much more than fifty.
Actually, Tang Li Xue could finish her second trial now if she went back and hand over all of these human heads to the ck-haired girl.
Unfortunately, she already triggered her system quest to catch fifty living humans to finish the second trial and she did not dare to disregard it so all of these human heads were useless for her.
Tang Li Xue checked the other space pouch and found many empty barrels that the [Demonic Blood Fox] used to store its own blood.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] should be using all of its blood reserves to breaking free from Tang Li Xue''s [Cyclone sh], to make that self-destruction heavy armor, and it even using the rest of it to escape before and now all of its blood reserves werepletely exhausted.
Tang Li Xue threw away all the useless empty barrels but she took out all of the beast cores that stored inside it.
Tang Li Xue opened her own status window and checked how much longer the duration of her [Divine Possession].
[Divine Possession duration: 00:03:12]
''Oh... I still have more than three minutes? Tsk, that slippery bast*rd sure is the lucky one! If it did not escape just then, I am really sure it would never get any more chanceter!''
If Tang Li Xue fight for several more rounds and stretch their battle for a little longer, exhausted the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s blood reserves first before delivering her finishing blow, the result would certainly be different.
The [Demonic Blood Fox] would never be able to use its [Blood Escape] ability after its blood reserves exhausted and Tang Li Xue''s 7thyer of [Heaven Splitting Wave] would certainly hit its forehead and turned the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s brain into mush!
Tang Li Xue shook her head in disappointment and regret but there was nothing she could do right now since it was already toote for her.
Three minutes'' duration was not long enough for her to find the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s current whereabouts.
Even if she managed to find its whereabouts soon, who knows if that cunning [Demonic Blood Fox] would have another life-saving skill to escape from her again?
Tang Li Xue did not have any more time for ying hide and seek with that [Demonic Blood Fox] since she would need to face the [Divine Possession]''s bacsh after the three minutes duration was overter.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and used her remaining duration to run as far as she could and find a deste area without any living being near it.
She dug a deep cave once more just like when she wanted to use her [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] before and covered the cave entrance carefully so no one could notice it.
After the [Divine Possession]''s duration was over, Yaya''s tiny body separated with Tang Li Xue''s body, and both of them werepletely paralyzed in exhaustion.
Their bodies were trembling nonstop and they even felt great pain flooding all over their bodies.
Tang Li Xue''s regret from failing to kill the [Demonic Blood Fox] was intensified and she could not stop herself from cursing the [Demonic Blood Fox] to ease her pain.
Tang Li Xue did not know that the [Demonic Blood Fox]''s current situation right now was far worse than her.
Not only it exhausted its own blood reserves it collected for a long time ago, it even needs a long time to recover from its weakened state after using its [Blood Escape] skill.
Right now the current weakened the [Demonic Blood Fox] was probably the weakest being here in this entire forest. Even the random beasts here could easily kill it if it did not move carefully.
The hatred and resentment in the [Demonic Blood Fox] for Tang Li Xue escted by manifold, even the bloodl.u.s.t and killing intent in its blood-red eyes got much thicker than before.
It swore inside its heart that it would never forget this humiliation and it would certainly return it to Tang Li Xue and the Fox Sith countless times worse along with the interest.

Chapter 127 - 127: Third-Party!

.
The ck-haired girl, Mei Lan was giggling in amus.e.m.e.nt and say: "That little white fox is really not bad at all! Although, it relies on that wind elemental spirit''s power to win but to be able to wield it to that extent is already quite a great aplishment!"
As the examiners, Zhiruo and Mei Lan have their own treasure to observe all the trial participants'' movements without being noticed by them.
Of course, they also witnessed the fierce battle between Tang Li Xue and the [Demonic Blood Fox] clearly from the projection in front of them.
This projection actually came from the vision of several eagle puppets that flying above the forest.
"Their speed is quite fast for wind elemental spirit''s cub and a savage beast. If that white fox evolves further into a demonic beast, it would surely reach Elite rank easily! Mei Lan, this white fox, I want it in my ss!" The red-haired girl, Zhiruo proimed while pointing her finger at Tang Li Xue''s figure in the projection that currently still running around to find the deste ce.
"Hehe... We will see itter which ss it will choo..." Mei Lan halted her words and frowned when she saw the other projection.
There were many people in ck-clothes jumped out of theke near the forest area.
Zhiruo frowned and asking Mei Lan with doubtful tone: "These people are acting so suspicious. Who do you think they really are?"
"They should the people from Evil Sect. Immortal Sword Sect is developing too fast recently so theye here to ruin the Immortal Sword Sect''s new disciple entrance exam as the warning." Mei Lan chuckled then answeredzily.
"Now what we should do? Should we cancel the second trial and change the location or should we just kill all of them?" Zhiruo pouted and asked Mei Lan again.
"Why we should do that? I think they are alle at the right timing. This second trial started to get a bit boring. With them joining in I am really sure it will be more lively and interesting!" Mei Lan was giggling happily and her mesmerizing obsidian eyes shone with anticipation.
Zhiruo rolled her eyes and corrected Mei Lan: "Do you mean it will be more dangerous and chaotic?!"
Anyone would think that Zhiruo was the cruelest one among these two since she was an instructor from Executor ss and her personality was also rude and always spoken what in her mind clearly.
On the contrary, every of Mei Lan''s movements was always full of elegance. Her mesmerizing face and the way she acting, she was always radiating gentleness aura that soothing everyone''s heart. She was also the instructor from the Inspector ss.
Unfortunately, everyone that trusted this first impression was making a really big mistake!
The red-haired girl, Zhiruo was actually a person... err... a fox with always looks hard on the outside but soft inside. She looks like a strict instructor but she actually always protects her students from behind and she would never put any of her students in any dangerous situation.
The ck-haired, Mei Lan was the total opposite of Zhiruo. She looks like a gentle instructor that would spoil all of her students but in reality, she would always train all of her students in a cruel way.
She would even throw all of her students in any dangerous situation and would never help them in order for them to grow stronger. The mortality rate of Mei Lan''s students was the highest among all the instructors.
Zhiruo started to pity all the foxes that choose to join the Inspector ss this year.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya fell asleep without realizing it after the effect of their [Divine Possession]''s bacsh wore off.
Fortunately, no one interrupted their sleep this time and they fast asleep until the next morning.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya slowly opened their eyes and both of their stomachs were rumbling loudly.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya looked at each other then both of them burst outughing.
Yaya used her [Air Bullet] to break open the cave entrance and both of them walked outside to breathe the fresh air.
After suffered the great pain and fell asleep in the stuffy cave for half a day, it was extremelyfortable for them when the air outside was filled their lungs.
''Let''s go, Yaya! We will hunt for some demonic beasts first for out breakfast then we will start our search again.''
Tang Li Xue told Yaya their task today with her mind.
Yaya nodded her tiny head full of enthusiast and she was smiling happily at Tang Li Xue.
For Yaya, to always be with Tang Li Xue was her true happiness.
She was willing to get injured to help Tang Li Xue and also willing to starve as long as she would always be with Tang Li Xue.
Yaya and Tang Li Xue scoured their surroundings to find some demonic beasts to eat but oddly they did not manage to find any even after searching for two hours.
''This is really strange! It''s reasonable if I can''t find any human since all the other foxes also hunting for them but now... I can''t even find any demonic beast for my meal?! You must be kidding with me!''
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and refused to believe if she really could not find any prey.
She activated her [Ethereal Form] this time and summoned out her martial soul, the [Flying Golden Fish].
Tang Li Xue also ordered Yaya to spread out so they now heading in different directions.
Tang Li Xue and her martial soul still did not find anything after searching for more than fifteen minutes but she suddenly got an urgent call from Yaya.
Tang Li Xue''s mind and Yaya''s mind were still connected even after they separated so they still could easilymunicate with each other.
Tang Li Xue hastily unsummoned her martial soul and heading toward where Yaya was, she even using her [Blink] skill rapidly.
''Yaya, what happened? Did you find our meal? Or some humans to catch?''
Yaya shook her head at first then nodded her head continuously after that. Yaya pointed her finger toward the nearby bushes.
Tang Li Xue stared at Yaya quizzically and peeked out her head from those bushes.
Then she saw... a group of ck-clothed humans brought several bounded people with them.
''Eh... wait a minute... that ck fox in their hands seems familiar...''
The group of ck-clothed humans also brought an ox-sized three-tailed ck fox. They tied its four limbs on the long iron stick and carry it like a captured boar.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya knew this ck fox really well. Who else if it not their previous enemy, the [Demonic Blood Fox].
Tang Li Xue: ''.....''
Tang Li Xue usually could read Yaya''s mind so she could easily understand what Yaya''s mean.
However, Tang Li Xue could not understand what Yaya was trying to say to her but now Tang Li Xue knew why Yaya could not exin everything clearly.
However, the current [Demonic Blood Fox] was vastly different from what Tang Li Xue and Yaya were facing before.
Its body and skin were shriveled up as if its blood was already sucked dry.
''Oi... Oi... Oi...you thieves! How could you steal my prey from me just like that?! And you big bully, how could you let yourself get caught by those thieves?! Where is your pride as a big viin?!''
Tang Li Xue stared at the [Demonic Blood Fox] full of disappointment.
Tang Li Xue told Yaya to follow behind her quietly while she followed the ck-clothed men from behind.
Tang Li Xue''s n was simple.
She wanted to steal those bounded humans to fill her living humans'' quota and took back her prey, the [Demonic Blood Fox] from the ck-clothed men.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya were trailing closely behind the ck-clothed men for half an hour and they managed to arrive at the ck-clothed men''s encampment.
Tang Li Xue raised her vignce even more when she saw the ck-clothed men''s number actually reached more than a hundred.
''Yaya, you wait here for now! I will go in and scout the situation inside first. Remember! Don''t act rashly without my instruction!''
Tang Li Xue looked at Yaya that was hiding behind the tree while told Yaya to wait here with her mind.
Yaya looked at Tang Li Xue full of worry but she still nodded her head while patted her chest and pointing at Tang Li Xue. Yaya was also trying to tell Tang Li Xue to ''take care of herself and be careful''.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head back to Yaya too and dashed into the ck-clothed men''s encampment.
Tang Li Xue easily sneaked into the ck-clothed men''s encampment without anyone realizing it.
Tang Li Xue guessed that all of these ck-clothed people were not at the elder rank cultivation level yet. They were probably only at the Qi Condensation stage.
But the Qi Condensation stage cultivator from the sect and the Qi Condensation stage cultivator but not joined any sect yet has a huge difference.
For example, these sect exam participants, some of them had already reached the Qi Condensation stage but they still not learn any martial art technique yet because they did not have any martial art manual.
While these ck-clothed men were already joined their evil sect since a long time ago and they already learned various martial art techniques. Their battle prowess surpassed the exam participants by miles away.
That was why the ck-clothed men could easily subdue all the sect exam participants.
One of the ck-clothed men held a sharp saber and ready to skinning the poor [Demonic Blood Fox] while the other ck-clothed men brought their captive to their jail.
Tang Li Xue started to hesitate. Should she save her meal, the [Demonic Blood Fox], or follow the group of ck-clothed men to where they held all their captives.
Chapter 128 - 128: Sneaking In!
Chapter 128 - 128: Sneaking In!
Tang Li Xue never ate any [Rare] grade demonic beast meat after all. Just imagining how much EXP she would get from eating it already enough to make her to drool over it.
But Tang Li Xue also realized if she stole the [Demonic Blood Fox] from those ck-clothed men now then she would need to turn off her [Ethereal Form] for one second, took that [Demonic Blood Fox] from under those ck-clothed men''s eyes, throw the [Demonic Blood Fox] in her space pouch and activated her [Ethereal Form] again.
Although it sounds simple but it would certainly make those ck-clothed men knew about her existence and became wary of her.
The danger she would need to face will also increase exponentially.
''Too dangerous! What a pity! Sigh... I really want to taste some [Rare] grade demonic beast meat... It should be delicious... Oh, well... Completing my quest shoulde first!''
Tang Li Xue decided to abandon the poor the [Demonic Blood Fox] and followed after the several ck-clothed men that brought their captives.
''I am so sorry, big bully! I know you don''t want to be eaten by humans and prefer to be eaten by your rival, me! Unfortunately, I can''t do that or I will get caught so... Adios and good luck, my food... cough... I mean mypatriot!''
The ck-clothed man raised his saber and swung it down with his full strength.
PUUUUUFFF~!!!
The [Demonic Blood Fox]''s head chopped by the ck-clothed man and separated from its neck.
No one could guess and no one would ever believe before that the only [Rare] grade fox trial participant would die in vain here without even have a chance to set its paw on the Foxes Home.
.....
Tang Li Xue quickened her pace, she saw the ck-clothed men entered one of the camps and threw their captives into the cage containing the other captives.
Tang Li Xue started counting the captives in the cages and her topaz blue eyes shone brighter when she finding out there were more than one hundred captives inside all the cages!
''What a great haul! Is heaven sending all of these ck-clothed men to help me finish my quest?! Imagine if I bring all of these prisoners back... Not only I will certainly pass the second trial but I should also get higher evaluation whenpleting my quest!''
Tang Li Xue greedily licked her lips as if she was staring at the delicious meal in front of her.
All the camps with the cages inside it were guarded tightly by many ck-clothed men but Tang Li Xue was still in her [Ethereal Form] so she could easily pass all the guards without being found and entered one of those camps.
Tang Li Xue examined the cage more closely and found that all the cages were nailed deep down onto the ground.
Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in disappointment. Actually, she was nning to deactivated her [Ethereal Form] for a moment and forcefully throw all the cages into her mid-rank space pouch.
It was more convenient and quicker that way rather than threw the captives one by one into her space pouch. She could also escape swifter after that without being found by the ck-clothed men.
But she could not do that since all the cages were nailed down to the ground and could never be moved anywhere.
Moreover, there were many ck-clothed men guarding around all the cages too. These ck-clothed guards would never patiently watch Tang Li Xue took their captives one by one and shove them into her mid-rank space pouch just like that.
''Sigh... What a headache! How could I take all of these prisoners into my space pouch without being found?!''
After thinking for a while, a light bulb inside Tang Li Xue''s mind shed brightly.
''What if I ask for Yaya''s help to distract them while I take these prisoners into my space pouch? Sounds like a good idea!''
Tang Li Xue''s conversed with Yaya using her mind and told Yaya about her n.
Of course, Yaya instantly agreed to help Tang Li Xue. For Yaya, she would certainly do what Tang Li Xue asked her to do as long as it makes Tang Li Xue happy.
Tang Li Xue decided to wait patiently until the skies turned dark before executing her n.
She entered a random empty camp, canceled her [Ethereal Form], and rested there for a few hours until the skies turned dark before activated her [Ethereal Form] again and sneaked back into the camp with several cages inside it.
TTang Li Xue sighed in disappointment. She thought the guards would certainly a bit loose at night but find out the guards actually increased instead of decreasing at night.
Tang Li Xue opened Yaya''s window status in her system and pressed the > button.
Yaya sat at the top of the tree branch and her tiny head was dozing off cutely but she immediately awoke when she heard Tang Li Xue signal inside her mind.
Yaya''s tiny body vanished in an instant from the top of the tree branch when Tang Li Xue pressed the > button.
Then Tang Li Xue pressed the > button and make Yaya''s tiny figure appeared right in front of her inside the camp guarded heavily by many ck-clothed men.
Yaya swiftly waved her and twelve [Air bullets] condensed around her then shot out to twelve different targets at the same time.
Among all Yaya''s skills, the [Air bullet] was the fastest one. [Air bullet] was even faster than [Wind de] but unfortunately, its lethality was also the lowest among all of Yaya''s skill.
BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG...
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock and surprise when she saw all the ck-clothed men managed to block all of Yaya''s[Air bullets]!
Of course, most of them did not have any time to react or pull their weapons to defend so they could only sacrifice one of their arms to defend against Yaya''s [Air bullet].
One of their arms broke but they could still unsheathe their weapons with the other hands and retaliate!
''Damn! All of these ck-clothed men are far stronger than I expected! In fact, they are far stronger than those noobs I am facing before!''
Tang Li Xue started to worry about Yaya''s safety but she could not cancel her n now or these ck-clothed men would certainly guard this ce heavierter and she would lost her chance so she could only grit her teeth for now.
Tang Li Xue panicked for a while but Yaya was still calm like still water.
Yaya waved her hand once again and activated her [Gale Prison] rapidly. Several tornados appeared to prevent the ck-clothed men from approaching her with weapons in their hands.
But Tang Li Xue and Yaya were still underestimating the ck-clothed men''s true battle prowess!
ROOOOOOAAAAARRRRR~~!!!
An orange lion jumped out from inside the tornado and tore Yaya''s [Gale Prison] with its sharp ws.
''MARTIAL SOUL! I almost forgot that human also has this to counter our divine ability!''
All the ck-clothed men summoned out their martial souls to tore Yaya''s [Gale Prison].
There were many kinds of martial souls such as an orange lion, a grey wolf, a two-headed eagle, even insect-type like a scorpion and a centipede!
BWOOOOOSSSSSSHHHHHH~!!!
All of the ck-clothed men''s martial souls opened their mouths and sprayed out their unique skills out toward Yaya.
[Orange me''s Breath]!
[Poison Liquid]!
[Stone Spike]!
Yaya did not dare to be careless and immediately activated her [Wind Barrier] to protect herself and [Gale Step] to increase her movement speed greatly.
Yaya started to flying zigzag to dodge all of their attacks yet several of their martial soul''s unique skills still managed to hit Yaya but all of it instantly repelled to the side by her [Wind Barrier].
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs impatiently, she really wanted to help Yaya so badly right now but she held down the urge since she did not want to ruin her own n.
Tap... Tap... Tap... Tap... Tap...
Tang Li Xue''s sharp ears heard many people''s running steps got closer and closer.
''Atst! Took you all long enough huh! Yaya, you can run now! Just do your best to stall as much time as you can!''
Yaya nodded her tiny head slightly signaled she understood.
However, when Yaya still busied herself dodging and defending against many martial souls at once, some ck-clothed men managed to sneak close to her. They chopped all of their sharp sabers and swords toward Yaya''s tiny fragile body!
''OH NO! YAYA DODGE IT!''
Unfortunately, it was already toote for Yaya to dodge it and several sharp weapons tore Yaya''s tiny fragile body to tiny pieces!
Tang Li Xue stunned when she saw the horrifying scene in front of her and she felt her soul almost left her body but before she could cry sadly about Yaya''s tragic fate...
PUUFFF... PUUFFF... PUUFFF...
Several ck-clothed men''s head flew away from their neck.
Tang Li Xue realized that this attack was Yaya''s horizontal [Wind de]!
Tang Li Xue was shocked at first but her surprised expression quickly turned into d and relief when she saw Yaya''s tiny figure was floating silently behind those headless ck-clothed men.
Yaya was still intact and unhurt just like before she fought before.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she examined Yaya''s current condition and say in her mind: ''Sigh... That little thing, she really knows how to make me worry! My heart is almost jumping out from my mouth before! I must teach her a lessonter so she would not make me worry like this anymore!''
''But... what is exactly that skill she used to fool me and those ck-clothed men before? I never saw she used it before!''
Chapter 129 - 129: Foxes Invasion!
Chapter 129 - 129: Foxes Invasion!
Tang Li Xue peeked Yaya''s skills tab in her status window and find that she had one new skill.
[Wind Clone (Lv1)]
The effect of this [Wind Clone] was clear since Yaya already disyed it before. It was used to create the clone from thepressed air.
Yaya should have gotten her inspiration from that thieving yellow fox''s [Shadow Clones] divine ability and created a new skill based on it but using her wind elemental power as the recement for the shadow elemental.
While Tang Li Xue drowned in her own thinking, Yaya swiftly dashed out from the camp with her [Gale Step] after beheading several ck-clothed men.
"DAMN! CHASE AFTER IT!" One of the ck-clothed men said with a chilling tone full of murderous intent.
The rest of the ck-clothed men were furiously chasing after Yaya while shouting loudly to call for more help.
Several other ck-clothed men sprinted out from the other camp and chasing after Yaya too.
Yaya twisted her body and waved her hand again. Several [Wind des] was shooting out toward the people that chasing behind her. No one died but Yaya managed to injure some of them.
The moment all ck-clothed men ran out from the camp and chasing after Yaya, Tang Li Xue immediately make her move and jumped into the cage.
With her [Ethereal Form], her invisible body could pass through the cage easily.
Tang Li Xue instantly turned off her [Ethereal Form] after she stepped inside the cage. She grabbed one of the captives inside the cage with both of her paws and shoved them into her mid-rank space pouch.
It was night already and usually, all the captive should be already fell asleep but thergemotion created by Yaya made all of them woke up and wary.
All of them shouted in surprise and fright the moment Tang Li Xue suddenly appeared in the middle of them out of nowhere and pulled one of them into with her tiny leather pouch.
"AAAHHHHHH!!! Help! There is a demonic beast here!" One of the captives shouted with a hoarse voice.
All the captives here were cultivators at Body Tempering Stage or Qi Condensation Stage who took the Immortal Sword Sect''s new disciple exam.
Usually, they did not afraid of a demonic beast as tiny as Tang Li Xue but right now, their cultivation was sealed and they did not have any weapon with them. Even their hands and feet were bounded by thick chains.
In this kind of situation, Tang Li Xue could certainly ughter them like killing powerless chicken or pig. That was why they were in panic and fright now.
''Dammit! This is bad! Sigh... I should already guess this, catching humans is harder than catching any demonic beasts since they can scream and call for help. I should do this quicker!''
Tang Li Xue paid no heed to all the captives deafening scream and shout. The cage was too small for all the captives inside it to move around anyway.
Tang Li Xue easily caught them one by one and pushed them into her space pouch.
After one of the cages emptied, Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] again and jumped into another cage then caught the captives one by one again repeatedly.
Tang Li Xue started to feel strange since all the captives basically shouting and screaming out loud until their voice turned hoarse from the very start but not even one of ck-clothed men came to check them until now.
However, Tang Li Xue immediately knew the reason why from Yaya''s message in her mind. There was something unexpected that happened outside.
Several other foxes actually forcefully broke into the ck-clothed men''s encampment too and started to attack the ck-clothed men outside.
Tang Li Xue wanted tough out loud in glee.
''Such a coincidence! Hehehe... so even those foxes also identally helping me to distract all of those ck-clothed men?! Heaven is really helping me this time!''
Although everything happened so far seems very smooth for Tang Li Xue but it was not so for Yaya.
In fact, Yaya was having so much difficulty right now.
Not only she must face many ck-clothed men but she was also must wary with the other foxes attacks!
[Frost Wave]!
The two-tailed white fox started to emit very intense icy aura, freezing everything in radius ten meters from it!
Several ck-clothed men with their martial souls were frozen solid the moment the intense freezing aura touched their bodies and their martial souls but fortunately, Yaya already activated her [Gale Step] and went out from the white fox''s attacking range if not she would probably already froze too.
BRRRRT... BRRRRT... BRRRRT...
The ground below started to shake violently and cracked open at several ces.
[Earthquake]!
All of the ck-clothed men including the two-tailed white fox were caught off guard because of it and stood unsteadily.
Three ck-clothed men even identally fell into the deep earth crack and their fate was unknown.
A two-tailed brown fox jumped out from inside the ground and bared its sharp fangs toward the ck-clothed men.
[Earth Spikes]!
PUUUFF... PUUUFF... PUUUFF...
Countless stone spikes thrust out from the shaking ground, all of the ck-clothed men tried to avoid it but the stone spikes were simply too many to dodge and the shaking ground made them harder to move, so many of them died under the brown fox''s merciless attack.
Fortunately, Yaya was always flying with her two pairs of crystal-colored fairy wings so she was unaffected by the violent earthquake.
Yaya only needs to fly higher to avoid all of brown fox''s [Earth Spikes].
"We can''t hold it on any more! Active the [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] right now!" The ck-clothed men''s leader or captain ordered his men.
"But... that is our trump card to trap and kill those elites from Immortal Sect..." His subordinate answered with a trembling voice full of hesitation.
"Do you want all of us to die first before you are willing to activate it?! DO IT NOW BEFORE IT''S TOO LATE!" The ck-clothed men''s leader shouted full of anger.
The subordinate immediately nodded his head dumbfoundedly and ran deeper into the encampment.
.....
Tang Li Xue used less than a quarter an hour to pack all the captives into her mid-rank space pouch.
At first, she was afraid that her mid-rank space pouch would not have enough room to store all these captives.
Fortunately, she has two other mid-rank space pouches she got from the [Demonic Blood Fox] before.
When Tang Li Xue stored thest captives into her mid-rank space pouch and her topaz blue eyes met with someone''s familiar stood outside the camp entrance.
That''s right.
That familiar figure was actually the thieving two-tailed yellow fox that stole her prey before.
''Bast*rd thief! So you finally show yourself, huh! Don''t run and fight me like a real man... err... I mean like a real fox!''
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form], passed through the cage, and used her [Blink] skill to catch the two-tailed yellow fox.
The two-tailed yellow fox never thought that it would meet an old acquaintance here so it was caught off guard by Tang Li Xue''s sudden pounce.
But the two-tailed yellow fox had [Elite] qualification prowess after all and its fighting experiences were far richer than Tang Li Xue.
The two-tailed yellow fox rolled a few times on the ground with Tang Li Xue but it still managed to kick Tang Li Xue away with its hind leg.
Tang Li Xue somersault a few times on mid-air andnded back on the ground a few meters away from the yellow fox.
After taking some distance with Tang Li Xue, the two-tailed yellow fox instantly activated its [Shadow Clones] divine ability and its hound-sized body was splitting into ten!
Their battle turned from one on one into ten against one.
The ten two-tailed yellow foxes surrounded Tang Li Xue in less than a second and jumped toward her from all directions.
Tang Li Xue sneered coldly at the ten two-tailed yellow foxes and activated her [Ethereal Form] again.
The ten two-tailed yellow foxes thought that Tang Li Xue only using her stealth skill and went invisible. They did not stop their pounces; they even increased their speed to the maximum so Tang Li Xue would not have any time to escape even if she turned invisible.
BAAAAAANGGGG~~!!!
The ten two-tailed yellow foxes'' bodies collided violently with each other and made a deafening sound like two big trucks collided against each other.
BOOOFFF... BOOOFFF... BOOOFFF...
All of the ten two-tailed yellow foxes flew backward onto the mid-air and exploded into white smoke one by one only leaving one two-tailed yellow fox in the end.
Tang Li Xue turned off her [Ethereal Form] and her transparent figure appeared once again.
She pushed down the dizzy two-tailed yellow fox with her paw to the ground and sneered mockingly at it.
''Uwehehehe... So you also have this day! Now... what should I do to you to vent my anger from before?! Should I roast you or should I boil you?!''
However, before Tang Li Xue could do anything to the two-tailed yellow fox, she received an emergency message from Yaya.
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to push the > button in Yaya''s window status in her system.
This was also why Tang Li Xue dared to ask Yaya''s help to distract all of those ck-clothed men away.
The reason because Tang Li Xue could store Yaya back into her system anytime when Yaya was facing a life-threatening danger!
But before Yang Li Xue could summon Yaya out again and ask what happened to her...
The starry skies above and the grassy ground below engulfedpletely in darkness in an instant!
Even Tang Li Xue with her [Advanced Sense of Sight] and [Night Vision] could not see anything inside this darkness!
Chapter 130 - 130: Earth Locking Heaven Slaying Formation!
Chapter 130 - 130: Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation!
Tang Li Xue felt a chill run up on her spine since she could not even move her body right now.
''What the hell is happening here?! Why I can''t move?! I... I can''t even see anything now!''
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs and tried to forcefully move her limbs but she still could not make it move even one bit.
BAAAAAAAANG~~!!!
-1880
HP: 61,320/63,200
Tang Li Xue felt something blunt crashed onto her and her furry body was thrown several meters away.
''Ouch!!! Who''s there?! Who dares to attack me at the time like this?''
In fact, not only Tang Li Xue was in this kind of perilous situation but also all the foxes that attacking this ck-clothed men encampment.
The ck-clothed men actually set this [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] to trap and massacre all the elite disciples from Immortal Sword Sect when they were attacking themter.
This [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]''s true effect was to seal all the senses and movement of the living beings inside it.
Of course, the ck-clothed men did not affect by this [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] since each of them already used a talisman that capable of negating the effect of the formation.
Right now Tang Li Xue and all the foxes in the encampment were no different than punching bags to all the ck-clothed men. They could not move and all of their senses were sealed.
''Dammit! I can''t even use any of my skills and divine abilities now! Is this really my end? Will I really die here now? Come to think of it... those two examiners are really irresponsible! They should barge in now and save all of us at this timing! What are they waiting for?!''
Several ck-clothed men already had pent up frustration because of the foxes'' invasion so they started to take a stick and hitting the foxes'' bodies repeatedly with it full of rage.
Actually, they really want to chop all the foxes into mincemeat right now but they remember that they could cook them as their meal.
These foxes'' meat should be really delicious!
So in the end they decided to not kill them now and cook them tomorrow since they already have one big fox meat (Demonic Blood Fox) as their dinner before.
BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG...
''Ouch... Ouch... Ouch... Stop it! Stop it! I give up so stop it now! Dammit, it''s hurt! This is the vition of Human''s Right... errr... I mean Fox''s Right! I will sue you all for doing these to me!''
-1345, -1534, -2132, -1866, -1563.....
Tang Li Xue''s HP dropped continuously under the several ck-clothed men''s constant attacks but fortunately, it was far from fatal since her [Regeneration] was a passive skill so it was unaffected by the [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] sealing effect and it still automatically activated to heal Tang Li Xue''s wounds.
+936, +936, +936, +936, +936....
HP: 47,690/63,200
Although all of their attacks were not fatal now but she would still die if they kept hitting her until her HP reduced to 0!
Tang Li Xue started to get anxious and her mind spun quickly as she tried to think about how she could get out of this perilous situation as soon as possible.
All of her divine abilities and skills were sealed!
All of her senses and movement were also sealed!
She even tried to summon her martial soul, the [Flying Golden Fish] but failed!
Tang Li Xue had a really great headache now. She almost thought that even her fate had been sealed too!
''Wait a minute... how about my dependable system? Please, let this works!''
Tang Li Xue tried to summon out her system window in her mind and the endless darkness in front of her dispersed a bit when the system window appeared in front of her eyes.
''YES! It''s really working! Sigh... But I can''t even move any of my paws so how could I tap on the system window? Hmmm... Eh... What if I try to tap my choice with my mind?!''
Tang Li Xue tried to open Yaya''s status window and press the > button with her mind. Surprisingly, it really worked well and Yaya''s tiny figure covered by her green leaf dress appeared in front of immobilized Tang Li Xue.
The ck-clothed men were stunned silly by Yaya''s sudden appearance for one moment.
Yaya slowly opened her glittering emerald green eyes and she stared coldly at the several ck-clothed men that dare to hit her Tang Li Xue. Yaya''s tiny figure started to emit an intense murderous aura.
KILL!
Yaya instantly cast her [Cyclone sh] and swung her small hand down forcefully.
All the ck-clothed men around Tang Li Xue wanted to dodge but unfortunately, they were toote.
The two meters tornadopressed from countless wind des chopped their bodies into countless small pieces.
After killing all of the ck-clothed men around Tang Li Xue, Yaya swiftly approached Tang Li Xue full of worry and asked Tang Li Xue ''Are you alright?'' and ''Are you hurt?'' using her mind connection.
''Eh... Yaya, you aren''t affected by this... whatever this is? So... I can still talk to Yaya using our connection! Quick, Yaya! Bring me away from here! Let''s get away quickly before you are affected by this too!''
Yaya nodded to Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression.
Yaya carried Tang Li Xue''s immobilized body on her back.
Yaya''s tiny body was only as big as palm while Tang Li Xue''s body was as big as an a.d.u.l.t cat so the current Yaya was like a tiny child carrying an oversized sack on her back.
Yaya''s current strength was not that high to begin with so her current speed also dropped significantly when she was carrying Tang Li Xue.
More and more ck-clothed men came toward where Yaya and Tang Li Xue at when they heard the bigmotion Yaya''s made with her [Cyclone sh].
Yaya flew toward the edge of the encampment but many of the ck-clothed men unsheathed their sharp weapons and summoned out their martial souls to block her way.
Yaya activated her [Wind Barrier] to protect herself and Tang Li Xue from their martial souls'' barrage attacks.
Yaya also used her [Gale Step] to dodge some attacks but her every movement was not as free and unrestricted as she used to be since she was currently carrying Tang Li Xue and she did not want any of their attack to hit Tang Li Xue.
Yaya waved her palm and shot several [Wind des] toward the ck-clothed men and managed to hurt some but their numbers were simply too many and all of Yaya''s attacks were only like throwing a small fire into the ocean.
Even Yaya''s [Wind Barrier] started to crumble under the fierce attacks of all the martial souls.
Yaya decided to use her strongest attack again to open a path for her and Tang Li Xue to escape!
[Cyclone sh]!
Several ck-clothed men that sprinting toward her with sharp weapons in their hands turned into mincemeat under Yaya''s [Cyclone sh]!
Yaya activated her [Gale Step] once again and dashed with her full speed following behind her [Cyclone sh]!
All the ck-clothed men did not dare to face Yaya''s [Cyclone sh] head on and ran aside but they and their martial souls did not stop their barrage attacks.
Yaya cast her [Wind Barrier] again to repel their attack but it immediately crumbled after received many of their attacks.
In the end, Yaya decided to use her tiny body to protect the immobilized Tang Li Xue while still trying to hold on and fly out from the encampment.
-1783! -2623!
[HP: 4,394/8,800]
''What?! What exactly happened outside? Why Yaya''s HP begin to decreasing too? Yaya! Hello, Yaya! Tell me what happen?!''
All of Tang Li Xue''s senses were still sealed so she did not know what Yaya did or what happened to Yaya.
Tang Li Xue only knew that Yaya was hurt from the battle log in the system window.
However, she started to get anxious when Yaya did not answer her call. Usually, Yaya was always a really nice kid and she would definitely answer her in any situation.
-2145! -1614!
[HP: 635/8,800]
Tang Li Xue: ''!!!''
Tang Li Xue started to feel panic and helplessness. It was already toote for her to press > button and put Yaya back into her system since she needs to open Yaya''s status window first.
One more light hit and Yaya would really die forever!
In the split second, Tang Li Xue decided to enter [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya!
.....
...
.
Yaya''s tiny body was full of wounds and her green leaf dress was tattered.
Yaya''s beautiful crystal-colored two pairs of wings were broken and she crashed down onto the ground.
She felt her eyelid was very heavy and she really wanted to sleep so badly.
But she still gritted her teeth and crawled slowly on the ground with Tang Li Xue on her back. Her tiny hand grabbed Tang Li Xue''s paw so tightly as if her life depended on it.
When countless attacks from the ck-clothed men and their martial souls rained down onto the powerless Yaya, her bloody little figure turned into a green light and entered into Tang Li Xue''s forehead!
BBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM~~!!!
Theirbined attacks this time was so devastating that it left a deeprge pit on the ground.
The ck-clothed men sighed in relief when they saw their enemy turned to dust under their attacks and some of them already started to treat their wounds.
But...
Horizontal... [Wind de]!
A longpressed sharp [Wind de] flew toward the ck-clothed men with unimaginable speed and severed many of the ck-clothed men''s heads at the same time!
Tang Li Xue pped her two pairs of crystal-colored wings and descended down slowly.
She was staring at all the ck-clothed men with her glittering emerald green eyes.
The immense pressureing out from her tiny body made all the ck-clothed men felt suffocating and hard to move.
The intense bloodl.u.s.t and killing intent emitted out from her started to make all the ck-clothed men shuddered a bit in fear.
They unsheathed their sharp weapons and summoned out all of their martial souls readied themselves to fight against the strong being in front of them.
''You all really like hitting us huh! Are you all already satisfied?!''
''Okay then! It''s my turn now!''
Chapter 131 - 131: First Massacre!
Chapter 131 - 131: First Massacre!
In the beginning, she never nned to kill any human even when the examiners said the second trial rules about taking human heads would get more points.
However, when Tang Li Xue triggered the [Divine Possession] to save Yaya''s life and Yaya turned into green light then entered her body, she could see the miserable scene where Yaya used everything to protect her, Yaya even using her own body in the end.
Even at thest moment, what in Yaya''s mind was not to run away and survive but how to protect Tang Li Xue and bring Tang Li Xue out from here to the safe ce even if she needs to sacrifice her own life as the cost!
RAGE!
Tang Li Xue was angry with Yaya''s selfishness!
Why Yaya need to bear the burden alone!
Yaya should tell her if she could not do it and they could think some solutions together!
Weren''t they a partner...rades where they will share their life and death together?!
Tang Li Xue felt infuriated by all of these ck-clothed men. How dare they hurt her and Yaya!
They just wanted to escape from this ce... not fight to the death with them!
However, Tang Li Xue realized that Yaya also killed several of them before...
So amongst all, Tang Li Xue was furious with herself the most!
All of these have happened because she was far too weak!
If she was stronger, she did not need to use Yaya as bait and threw Yaya in danger.
If she was stronger, she could enter and get out from here unscathed even without Yaya''s help and Yaya did not need to get hurt.
If she was stronger, she could defeat the [Demonic Blood Fox] alone so Yaya also did not need to fight with her and get hurt.
She must get stronger faster! But first, she needs to vent this terrible rage inside her heart first. She could not vent her anger to Yaya or to herself... so she could only vent it to herst option, all of these ck-clothed men.
This was the first time Tang Li Xue kill humans with her own hands.
She really felt awful but when she remembered that Yaya also killed some humans for her before, she immediately steeled her heart and endured her nausea.
The ''Immortal World'' name sounds beautiful but the cruelness within it was unfathomable.
All the humans here were different from her previous world, they could kill the other humans easily without feeling any guilt let alone she was a beast now.
If she could not adapt to this Immortal World''s cruelness then she would certainly perish sooner orter!
Tang Li Xue already decided to stop caring whether it was humans or beasts now! She decided to split the people or beasts in front of her into three categories: close friends, strangers, and enemies.
She only needs to care about her close friends and protect them like Yaya and fake dragon.
She did not need to care anything about strangers.
But she would kill all of her enemies!
When all of these ck-clothed men almost killed Yaya, Tang Li Xue already ssified all of them as her enemies!
No one could understand Tang Li Xue''s feelings when she reincarnated into this Immortal World.
Although she always acted proud, cheerful, and c.o.c.ky at all times but deep down inside her heart, she was feeling really lonely and empty since could not talk to anyone and no one could understand her at all.
In this entire Immortal World, the fake dragon was Tang Li Xue''s first friend but Yaya was the closest one to Tang Li Xue right now.
Moreover, Yaya also the only one that could understand her in this entire Immortal World so no one could imagine what Tang Li Xue''s really felt when Yaya almost died in front of her before.
It could be said that Yaya was Tang Li Xue''s reverse scale.
She never nned to kill the [Demonic Blood Fox] at first too, she only wanted to teach it a harsh lesson but after it hurt Yaya, she was determined to kill it!
Now, all of these ck-clothed men were not only hurt Yaya but almost killed Yaya... so right now, Tang Li Xue was determined to ughter all of them at all costs!
Tang Li Xue stretched her limb and she could already move her body as usual.
However, when Tang Li Xue tried to activate her [Ethereal Form], she failed to activate it.
''It looks like I still cannot use any of my divine abilities and my skills but I can already move my body, I can also see everything clearly with Yaya''s eyes, and use all of Yaya''s skills thanks to her blessing as a wind elemental spirit. So that darkness could affect all being except elemental spirit? Tsk... As expected from nature''s favorite darling!''
[Divine Possession duration: 00:09:21]
''Ooops... I almost wasted one minute for nothing... let''s finish this quick together... Yaya!''
The rain of unique skills from all the ck-clothed men''s martial souls targeted Tang Li Xue''s nonstop when she was drowned in her inner conflict as human and beast.
But Tang Li Xue''s current speed when she was in her [Divine Possession] with Yaya was far higher than Yaya''s own speed since Tang Li Xue'' agility stats were several-fold higher than Yaya so she could leisurely dodge all of the attacks without even using much effort.
Tang Li Xue waved her right paw and several [Wind des] formed around her.
''Wind des? Hmm... It''s not lethal enough and who knows how many wind des I need to use to defeat all of these men!''
Several [Wind des] was shooting toward the group of ck-clothed men with the speed far faster than Yaya''s [Wind des] before.
Some ck-clothed men did not even have any time to react and the [Wind des] cleaved them in two!
''Wait a minute... I always wondering since I am in the [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya, doesn''t it mean I also have Yaya''s [Wind God''s Endowment]? What if I try to create my own unique wind elemental skill?''
Tang Li Xue tried to create several [Wind des] again but this time it was a bit different from Yaya''s version.
''Let''s see...for example like this! Let''s call this [Wind Swords] then!''
Twelve sharp transparent swords were floating above Tang Li Xue. She got this skill inspiration from [Demonic Blood Fox]''s homing blood knives.
These twelve sharp swords were made from thepression of wind and air. Tang Li Xue could easily control all of them just like how [Demonic Blood Fox] controlled its blood knives to chase after her before.
The twelve [Wind Swords] flew toward the group of ck-clothed men with speed faster than sound and prated many of the ck-clothed men''s bodies along with their martial souls at once!
Different from [Wind de] that could hit one target each time before dispersing, this [Wind Sword] could attack multiple targets each time ording to Tang Li Xue''s will!
Moreover, the [Wind Sword] did not disperse after it hit its target like [Wind de], the twelve [Wind Swords] flew back toward Tang Li Xue and hovering above her again after killing many ck-clothed men at once!
All the ck-clothed men were terrified with Tang Li Xue [Wind Swords]''s attacks so this time they did not dare to get closer to Tang Li Xue and decided to attack from afar with their martial souls.
''Hm? So you don''t want toe closer to attack me by yourself anymore? Then I wille there to greet you!''
Tang Li Xue activated her [Gale Step], the surrounding wind wrapped her furry tiny body and Tang Li Xue could felt her speed increased significantly!
She pped her two pairs of crystal-colored fairy wings and flew toward the group of ck-clothed men with the speed that hard to be seen with n.a.k.e.d eyes!
All the ck-clothed men did not care and still ordered their martial soul to keep shooting in the direction where Tang Li Xue was floating before.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to dodge their attacks and used her will to order the twelve sharp [Wind Swords]. All the twelve [Wind Swords] flew to her front and formed the wall of [Wind Swords] to block the attacks in front of her.
BANG... BANG... BANG...
The [Wind Sword] was very sharp, it was really great if used as offense weapon but it was especially fragile when used as a shield.
The twelve [Wind Swords] was full of cracks after received several heavy projectile attacks from the ck-clothed men''s martial souls and...
BOOOOMMMM~~!!!
The twelve [Wind Swords] exploded under their violent attacks and scattered back into passing wind.
Tang Li Xue was forced to stop her flight to dodge but unfortunately, it was already toote for her...
[Acid Spray]!
[Fireball]!
[Lightning Bolt]!
One by one of the lethal attacks smashed onto Tang Li Xue''s tiny fragile body and not long after that, she waspletely drowned by countless attacks, her tiny furry body evaporated into nothingness.
All the ck-clothed men cheered in relief when they finally managed to eliminate their enemy.
Unfortunately, their happiness and relief did notst long when the giant tornado made from thepression of countless wind des hit them from their nk!
[Cyclone sh]!
Moreover, Tang Li Xue''s [Cyclone sh] was several times bigger and stronger than Yaya''s version!
The tragic cries and screams resounded through the encampment as the giant tall tornado sweep the ck-clothed men one by one.
Some of them wanted to run away but the strong sucking force from the giant tornado did not let them escape and pulled them back.
The giant tall tornado swallowed almost all the ck-clothed men and their martial souls. The countless sharp wind des inside it turned them all into mincemeat.
Tang Li Xue did not dare to see that disgusting and bloody scene so she looked away while thinking: ''Tsk... This [Wind Clone] is really awesome! Especially if webine it with our amazing speed! Yaya, you should use it carefully next time since the surprise effect from it could be really lethal like what happened just now.''
Yaya nodded her tiny head in understanding inside Tang Li Xue''s mind.
Although, her wounds were really lethal and she almost died before but she alreadypletely recovered thanks to Tang Li Xue''s [Regeneration] skill now.
Chapter 132 - 132: Second Trial Conclusion!
Chapter 132 - 132: Second Trial Conclusion!
Some lucky ck-clothed men managed to survive from Tang Li Xue''s devastating [Cyclone sh]''s attack since they were stood so far away before but they did not have any more intention to fight and ran away in fright without looking back.
Tang Li Xue did not want to waste the remaining time of [Divine Possession]''s duration to chase after them so she just ignored them and let them escape from this encampment.
She opened her status window to take a peek at how much longer her [Divine Possession]''s duration had left.
[Divine Possession duration: 00:05:46]
''Hmm... I only have 5 minutes left! Oh, well... It should be enough for me to check out this entire encampment first for a few minutes! I am really curious about what happened to me before! Hopefully, I can find some clues about it.''
Tang Li Xue already had more than enough human captives in her three mid-rank space pouches so she did not need to catch more.
However, when Tang Li Xue checked some camps, she found several immobilized foxes thrown into the cart inside the kitchen camp. One of them was the thief fox, the two-tailed yellow fox.
''Umm.... Should I help them or not? Forget it! I will do itter if I have more free timeter.''
Of course, she did not forget to take the yellow fox''s space pouch before leaving the kitchen camp!
Tang Li Xue was vengeful and narrow-minded after all. She would never forget that this yellow fox dared to steal her human captive''s heads before.
After spending more than two minutes for searching around the camps one by one, Tang Li Xue finally managed to find something mysterious inside the big camp at the center of this ck-clothed men''s encampment.
On the top of the round table, there was an ancient stone disk hovering above it while kept rotating counterclockwise slowly.
The ancient stone disk was covered by ck light that made this bright big camp full of illuminating pearls dimmed a lot.
It was as if the ck light emitting from the ancient stone disk kept swallowing the surrounding light.
Tang Li Xue could only agape in shock for a few moments when she saw the bizarre disk-like item in front of her.
Tang Li Xue did not want to approach or touch the ancient stone disk since she was still not sure if this item was dangerous or not so she decided to use her [Air Bullet] to knock the ancient stone disk away for now.
BAAAAANG~~!!!
The [Air Bullet] knocked the ancient stone disk from the tricky angle and the stone disk flew toward Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue only needed to open her extreme-rank space pouch she got from the fake dragon before and the ancient stone disk flew inside the pouch by itself.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to check this ancient stone disk with her basic [All Knowing Eyes] for now since her [Divine Possession]''s duration almost up and she must quickly leave this ce.
[Divine Possession duration: 00:02:37]
Tang Li Xue went out of the big camp and heading toward the kitchen camp.
Actually, Tang Li Xue did not want to help them at first but after she was pondering about it for a while, she decided to help them in the end.
Why?
It was because these foxes would probably enter the Foxes Hometer along with her so helping them now and make them owe her will certainly bring her more benefit in the future.
She used Yaya''s wind power to make the cart with several immobilized foxes inside it floating.
Then she immediately flew away from the ck-clothed men''s encampment as fast as she could while the cart was following behind her.
After she went quite far away from the encampment, several foxes inside the cart regained the control of their bodies and stretch their bodies.
Tang Li Xue lowered the cart to the ground and all of them jumped down from the cart.
The two-tailed white fox and the two-tailed brown fox stared at Tang Li Xue full of gratitude.
They might be demonic beasts but as the beasts with [Elite] qualification, they were clearly far smarter than the other demonic beasts.
They immediately realized that Tang Li Xue was the one helping to bring them out from that dangerous encampment before.
As for the two-tailed yellow fox, it was still busy searching for something anxiously. It looked like something important belong to it was missing.
After a while, the two-tailed yellow fox stared at Tang Li Xue full of anger.
Tang Li Xue only sneered at it mockingly and stopped caring about it while waving her paw to the other to foxes to bid her farewell.
Her [Divine Possession]''s duration only had one minute remaining!
Tang Li Xue flew so fast like a bullet andnded at one of the giant tree''s branches. She quietly made a hole with her [Wind Swords] on the tree trunk.
After Tang Li Xue entered the hole, she immediately covered the hole''s entrance with tree bark again.
Fortunately, she did it really quickly since her [Divine Possession]''s duration was really up the moment she closed the entrance.
''Sigh... I really hate this! UAAAAARRRGGGGGHHHH PAAAAIIIINNN~~!!!''
Yaya''s tiny body separated again from Tang Li Xue after the [Divine Possession]''s duration was over.
Both of their bodies were paralyzed in exhaustion.
All of their muscles were twitching nonstop in great pain.
But Tang Li Xue did not feel it that bad since both she and Yaya managed to survive from that life-threatening danger before.
Tang Li Xue decided to be more careful next time and not act rashly like today again.
When her system gave her [Hard] difficulty quest, she was clearly still underestimated it before and she almost lost Yaya because of that.
In this Immortal World, she was still at the low-rank food chain so she must do everything with caution.
The fake dragon told her before that entering this Foxes Home was the fastest way for her to be stronger.
Tang Li Xue could only hope the fake dragon did not lie to her.
Without realizing it, Tang Li Xue and Yaya fell deep asleep in exhaustion and only woke up after sleeping for more than half a day.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya were still very starving but almost all the demonic beasts around here already hunted by the ck-clothed men before.
Tang Li Xue already had enough human captives and human heads in all of her space pouches so she decided to go back to where the examiner waited for them.
Fortunately, when they were traveling at the forest periphery close to where the examiner rest before, Tang Li Xue and Yaya managed to catch some prey and relieved their starvation.
When Tang Li Xue arrived back at the examiner''s ce, she nced at the other five foxes that already managed toplete their task first before her.
The two-tailed white fox and the two-tailed brown fox were among them and they waved their paws to call Tang Li Xue to their side.
Tang Li Xue took a peek at the two examiners that still sat on the top of the rock while thinking: ''Aren''t I need to give all of these captives and human heads to examiner first? So they can check if I reallypleted the task they gave?''
The red-haired girl, Zhiruo giggled when she saw Tang Li Xue''s confused expression.
"There is no need for us to check it. Look at that!"?Zhiruo pointed at the projection screen in front of Mei Lan with her chin.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned dark when she saw the projection screen in front of the ck-haired girl was actually disying what all the foxes were currently doing right now.
So these two examiners could see clearly what exactly happened to them before but did not have any intention to help them at all!
Tang Li Xue felt the anger .u.mted inside her heart started to raising but when she remembered what happened to the [Demonic Blood Fox], she quickly calmed down.
So this was why these two said that the trial was very cruel before?! No matter what danger they faced, these two examiners would never help them out even if they all died!
That [Demonic Blood Fox] was really pitiful... if these two examiners saved it before, that [Demonic Blood Fox] should be still alive right now.
Tang Li Xue did not want to keep holding these four mid-rank space pouches full of human heads and human captives so she threw it all back to the red-haired girl.
Tang Li Xue walked toward where the two-tailed white fox and the two-tailed brown fox were then sat along with them too.
She did not close to other foxes than these two and she already saved these two''s lives before after all so she felt a bit closer to these twopared with the other foxes.
After all of them waited for a few hours until the skies turned dark, thest fox finally arrived back here.
Surprisingly it was actually the thief fox, the two-tailed yellow fox!
But Tang Li Xue was still the one who was the most surprised by this thief fox''s tenacity.
She already took its mid-rank space pouch before so she thought it was impossible for this thief fox to pass this second trial but here, this thief fox using its [Shadow Clones] to carry three human heads each.
It could make nine [Shadow Clones] so including the real one, it was carrying thirty human heads right now!
Although this thief fox looked very haggard and exhausted but it still managed to pass this second trial with its own effort!
Tang Li Xue thought deeply while staring at the thief fox with admiration in the deepest of her topaz blue eyes.
She was wondering. If she did not have Yaya''s help and lost her mid-rank space pouch like this thief fox, could she really pass this second trial with her own effort?
Chapter 133 - 133: Choosing Class!
Chapter 133 - 133: Choosing ss!
"All right, congrattions to all of you! You all officially passed the second trial now." The ck-haired girl, Mei Lan was smiling gently and pping her hands to congratte all the second trial''s participants.
Ding!
[Quest Completed!]
[Gained: Level +3(+1), Stat Point +90(+23), Skill Point +18(+5), 150(+38) Deity Coins]
[Evaluation: Perfect] [Added Additional Reward: Companion Egg]
Ding!
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level achieved the Rank 5 Qi Condensation Stage! All stats +200]
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level achieved the Rank 6 Qi Condensation Stage! All stats +200]
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level achieved the Rank 7 Qi Condensation Stage! All stats +200]
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level achieved the Rank 8 Qi Condensation Stage! All stats +200]
Tang Li Xue tensed muscles finally rxed and she sighed in relief when she received the ''questplete'' notification from the system.
She developed a trauma from before when she managed to escape from the Asura Demon Sect together with the fake dragon but there was no ''questplete'' notification from the system after that and in the end, the fatty uncle chased after them from behind.
Since then Tang Li Xue instinctively never let her guard down until thest moment when she heard the ''questplete'' notification from her system like now.
''Fuuuuh... that is surely not easy but thanks to Yaya''s help, I finally manage toplete it. And I got the Perfect evaluation again! Uwehehehe... Yay! I got an additional reward too!''
Tang Li Xue licked her lips and wiped out her drool with her paw.
She decided to check the additional reward she got from her system.
Of course, she did not dare to take it out from her system inventory in front of so many eyes like now but at least she could look at it from her inventory window.
''Eh... What the heck is this [Companion Egg]?! Don''t tell me this is a pet egg?! Urgh... useless! I already have Yaya so I don''t need it for now! Well, honestly it''s not like I don''t want it but I don''t have enough time or money to keep feeding it even if I hatch it now. Moreover, if this pet is a big glutton like Yaya...''
Tang Li Xue decided to throw this [Companion Egg]''s matter to the back of her mind for now and listened carefully to what the ck-haired examiner told to them.
The ck-haired girl, Mei Lan exined more details about three sses: the Inspector ss, the Executor ss, and the Elite ss.
In the end, Mei Lan gave all the participants the opportunity to choose which ss they want to join.
But of course, they could only choose to join between two sses: the Inspector ss and the Executor ss for now.
As for Elite ss, they will have their chance to be promoted into Elite sster if they had some achievements and the rmendation from their ss instructor.
Many of the foxes wanted to join the Executor ss since their mission sounds simpler and easier than the Inspector ss but the final decision was still in the two examiners'' hands in the end since the one decided to ept or refuse the participants into their ss was their future instructors... or in the other words, these two examiners.
"Hi, little cutie! Hurry,e here and join this big sister''s ss! Big sister will surely give you a special serviceter!" The red-haired girl, Zhiruo put a s.e.xy pose and her oversized cleavage almost spilled out from her loose robe.
Any human men certainly had their blood boil if they saw this scene and they would definitely jump onto her embrace to fondle these red-haired girl''s pair of soft giant meat buns.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue waspletely unfazed. She was a girl after all and she waspletely straight.
Well... actually, all the participants here were foxes including Tang Li Xue so this examiner''s n to seduce her was bound to fail since the very start.
Tang Li Xue stared at the red-haired examiner with a weird expression while her mouth kept twitching as if saying: ''Are you an idiot?''
Tang Li Xue was very sure that this red-haired examiner had a mental problem so she did not hesitate to walk toward the ck-haired examiner.
"Eeeeh... Wait... Wait a minute! Look at this delicious fruit! Join this big sister''s ss and this big sister will give this heavenly fruit! This is not a normal fruit! If you consume this fruit, you will certainly get a new strength enhancement divine ability!" The red-haired girl took out a purple apple-like fruit from her space pouch to tempt Tang Li Xue this time.
Tang Li Xue''s eyes shone brighter with greed when she stared at the purple apple-like fruit in the red-haired girl''s hand.
''Woah! I can get the strength enhancement divine ability if I eat that purple fruit?!''
All the other foxes stared at Tang Li Xue full of envy and jealousy. The fruit that could grant a divine ability to the one who ate it were incredibly rare after all!
Tang Li Xue stopped hesitating and ran toward the red-haired girl. Tang Li Xue was really afraid that the red-haired girl changed her mindter if she was too slow.
The ck-haired girl, Mei Lan giggled and leisurely say with her usual gentle tone: "You will surely regret it if you choose to enter her Executor ss."
Tang Li Xue forcefully halted her step and looked back at the ck-haired girl with a confused expression.
"She just wants your ck fox boyfriend to join her ss, not you. Besides that, I can see from your previous behavior that you are not used to killing. You only killed something to eat or when someone threatened your life before, right? In that case, you are not suitable to join the Executor ss." The ck-haired girl slowly exined to Tang Li Xue with her sweet gentle voice.
Tang Li Xue started to waver when she heard the ck-haired examiner''s exnation.
"MEI LAN! YOU..." The red-haired girl, Zhiruo was fuming in rage when Mei Lan stopped Tang Li Xue but Mei Lan did not let Zhiruo interrupt her words halfway and continued.
"Moreover, your divine ability is not really the usual stealth-type, right? Without that little friend of yours, your offense is almost non-existent too. Are you really nning to always rely on that little friend of yours to assassinate all of your targets after joining Executor ss?" Mei Lan stared at Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression.
Although, Mei Lan was currently still wearing her fox mask but her clear obsidian ck eyes and all of her questions struck right into Tang Li Xue''s weak point.
However, Yaya that sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s furry head quietly all this time did not think so. She stared at the ck-haired examiner full of anger and annoyance.
"Join my ss and I will teach you how to fight properly without depending too much on your little friend! I promise to make you get stronger as fast as possible!" Mei Lan reached her smooth right hand and invited Tang Li Xue.
Mei Lan''s firm tone was full of confidence made Tang Li Xue calmed down a lot.
What was the real purpose of Tang Li Xueing here?
It was to get stronger as soon as possible!
And this ck-haired examiner offered that right in front of her face!
There was no need for Tang Li Xue to hesitate anymore!
Tang Li Xue ran toward the ck-haired examiner and grasped her smooth jade-like hand with her paw!
Mei Lan''s smile was blooming beautifully when Tang Li Xue held her hand.
"Wee to my Inspector ss, little one." Mei Lan pulled Tang Li Xue''s tiny furry body and held Tang Li Xue in her arms.
The red-haired girl and Yaya were fuming with rage and resentment. The two of them could not wait to tear Mei Lan apart.
It was true that Tang Li Xue already decided her choice but she still felt a bit regretful because she could not get that purple fruit from the red-haired examiner.
Mei Lan giggled softly when she saw Tang Li Xue''s regretful expression and she took out a dpidated book from her space pouch and gave it to Tang Li Xue.
"I am not that shameless, okay! Since that seducer wanted to give you that fruit if you join her ss, how could I not give you anything after you join my ss? The art contained in this book is perfectly suitable for you. Take it and master it as soon as possible!" Mei Lan patted Tang Li Xue''s furry head while pushing the dpidated book onto Tang Li Xue''s paws.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone in excitement when she was holding the dpidated book with her both of her paws.
''Woah... I... I finally get a martial art book! Eh... but a martial art book is for humans... so how could this fox examiner know that I have a human''s Dantian in my body? Wait a minute! This examiner never said something about a martial art book... So this book is probably not a martial art book?!''
Tang Li Xue was very disappointed when she thought this book was not about martial art techniques.
Tang Li Xue wanted to open the book to check its content but all the envy, jealousy, and resentment stares from all the foxes made her very ufortable so she decided to check itter and threw it into her space pouch.
"Cough... okay, all of you already chose your ss now! I hope all of you will devote to your ss from now on and never think to change your sster since no one will ever allow it to happen! Do your best from now on and you will have a chance to be promoted to Elite sster!" The red-haired girl, Zhiruo cleared her throat and encouraged all the foxes.
However, the next words that came out from her mouth made all the foxes here dropped into despair...
"Then let''s go! We will change the location and begin thest trial!" The red-haired girl, Zhiruo turned around and shouted.
Chapter 134 - 134: The Last Trial!
Chapter 134 - 134: The Last Trial!
''There is still another trial?! I thought we already passed all the trials since we already choose our respective ss!''
The gentle ck-haired girl, Mei Lan chucked when she saw Tang Li Xue and the other foxes dumbfounded expression.
"All of you do not need to worry too much about thisst trial. Thisst trial is only to test your heart and each ss has a different trial. The one who chooses to join Inspector ss please follow me!" Mei Lan waved her slender fingers with a gentle smile on her face and some foxes including Tang Li Xue started to follow her closely from behind.
Surprisingly, the two-tailed purple fox with mind-control divine ability, the two-tailed yellow thief fox with shadow clones divine ability, and the two-tailed white fox with ice-type divine ability joined the same ss as Tang Li Xue, the Inspector ss.
While, the two-tailed brown fox with earth type divine ability, the two-tailed squirrel-sized grey fox with muscles and bones changing divine ability, the two-tailed Chihuahua-sized orange fox with the orange me divine ability and thest one was the two-tailed tiger-sized blue fox with unknown divine ability joined the red-haired girl''s ss, the Executor ss.
Among the eleven foxes who participated in the second trial, only eight of them managed to survive until the end.
Tang Li Xue stared at the two-tailed blue fox for a moment.
Tang Li Xue was very sure she had already seen all the foxes that participate in the previous two trials but this was the first time she saw this two-tailed blue fox. She was quite curious about what this blue fox''s true divine ability was.
Tang Li Xue wanted to check the two-tailed blue fox''s species with her basic [All Knowing Eyes] but the blue fox vanishedpletely in front of her eyes before she could do so.
''Stealth-type divine ability?! Woah! It has the same type as my divine ability!''
Mei Lan brought the four of them to the remote ce at the forest periphery and threw a yellow talisman to the ground.
When the yellow talisman touched the ground therge azure circle consist of the countless runes shone once again below their feet.
After they all waited for a few seconds, all of them including the ck-haired examiner, Mei Lan transported back to the ce where the thick white fog was.
"Follow me closely so you don''t get lost here!" Mei Lan warned them all once again with the stern tone.
Tang Li Xue also did not dare to rx here since the white fog here was too thick so she could only barely see what in front of her.
Tang Li Xue quickened her pace and follow behind Mei Lan closely while warned Yaya softly with her mind.
''Yaya, sit tight and do not wander around or you will get lostter!''
Yaya nodded her head obediently to Tang Li Xue and sat quietly on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
Fortunately, the ck-haired girl, Mei Lan was only walking slowly and did not run like in the first trial or they would certainly lose her track this time since the white fog here was far thicker than when they were in the first trial.
After all the foxes followed closely behind Mei Lan for almost an hour, they finally arrived at the location where the third andst trial would be held.
The ck-haired examiner, Mei Lan turned her slender body facing Tang Li Xue and the other foxes, her long silky ck hair swayed slightly under the breeze.
Mei Lan observed all of their tense expressions andughed with her sweet voice.
"There is no need for you all to put that grumpy expression. Thisst trial is quite easy and not life-threatening at all." Mei Lan put her finger on her chin and exined with an amus.e.m.e.nt mixed in her serious tone.
But all the foxes including Tang Li Xue was still staring at the ck-haired examiner in front of them skeptically.
"The wooden bridge in front of us is called the Bridge of Sincerity. This wooden bridge is yourst trial! After all of you manage to cross this wooden bridge, you will directly enter the Foxes Home." Mei Lan pointed her finger at the wooden bridge in front of them and exined.
Tang Li Xue''s lips twitched violently when she saw the dpidated wooden bridge connected with rotten root in front of them.
The extra-thick white fog made them could not see what exactly below the wooden bridge so Tang Li Xue took a tiny stone near her and threw it to the ravine below the wooden bridge with her paws.
Like what she expected, the tiny stone did not make any noise after it plunged into the ravine so it means the ravine was extremely deep!
Tang Li Xue stared at the ck-haired examiner angrily with the urge to curse her loudly using many profanities.
''How dare she say thisst trial is not dangerous at all?! I am 100 percent sure that the fragile wooden bridge can break any time! Our death would be really sealed if we could not fly here!''
However, Tang Li Xue quickly calmed down when she remembered that she still has Yaya with her.
She was really sure that the two of them could easily pass thisst trial with their [Divine Possession] mode.
"This Bridge of Sincerity has been here since the first time the Foxes Home was founded. You all do not need to worry if this Bridge of Sincerity breaks when you cross halfway since your strength has not reached that level yet." Mei Lan sneered at them all mockingly.
All the foxes here including Tang Li Xue felt a bit offended by her words. They found it hard to believe if their strength was not enough to break this brittle dpidated wooden bridge.
Mei Lan did not care about their disbelief since they could try to break that bridgeter if they did not believe her words so she continued her exnation.
"Like its name, this wooden bridge''s purpose is to test your sincerity. So you don''t need to be so afraid of it. Of course, if you have some bad intentions toward the Foxes Home then this Bridge of Sincerity will make sure you never reach until the end!" Mei Lan said to them with her assuring tone but it also had a hidden threat within it.
All of the foxes rxed their guard and sighed in relief after they heard Mei Lan''s exnation.
"Or... if you changed your mind, I can take you to where the Executor ss trial will be held. If you want to join Executor ss, you must cross the Bridge of Carnage. The bridge is made from pure gold but the bridge''s color is not gold, it''s bright red. Do you all want to know why?" Mei Lan smiled. She asked them all with her alluring voice and teasing tone.
Tang Li Xue suddenly felt d that she did not tempt by the red-haired examiner and join the Executor ss.
Just hearing the ''Bridge of Carnage'' name was already enough for all the foxes here to feel like their ss choice was right.
Mei Lanughed out loud with her sweet voice when she saw Tang Li Xue and the other foxes made repulsive expression after they heard the ''Bridge of Carnage'' name.
"You all can go now! ...Good luck..... I will wait for you all on the other side of this Bridge of Sincerity!" The ck-haired girl, Mei Lan waved her palm to bid her farewell to all of her student candidates.
But Tang Li Xue could somehow detect a hint of hesitation mixed in her words. It looked like this ck-haired examiner wanted to say some hints to them but decided against it in the end.
Tang Li Xue followed the other foxes and walked onto the dpidated wooden bridge with them while kept staring at the ck-haired examiner with doubt.
Tang Li Xue decided to raise her vignce to the maximum and proceed carefully.
The ck-haired girl, Mei Lan frowned deeply after all the foxes walked on the Bridge of Sincerity and mumbled: "I hope all of you can keep your sincerity until the end and cross the bridge safely."
.....
...
.
The two-tailed purple fox and the two-tailed yellow thief fox did not have enough patience to proceed carefully like Tang Li Xue so they decided to run as fast as they can so they could pass thisst trial as soon as possible.
Of course, they were not stupid enough to proceed recklessly without any insurance!
The two-tailed yellow thief fox used its nine shadow clones to scout the road ahead of it. While the two-tailed purple fox followed the two-tailed yellow thief fox from behind but its purple eyes were shining with mysterious purple light.
Tang Li Xue also activated her [Ethereal Form] and summoned out her martial soul, the [Flying Golden Fish] to scout the way ahead of her.
In fact, Tang Li Xue did not need to activate her [Ethereal Form] since there was no danger here but she must activate it if she wanted to summon out her martial soul to cover it from everyone else''s eyes.
Tang Li Xue could also order Yaya to scout ahead but she decided against it because she did not know what kind of danger they would faceter.
That scene where Yaya almost died because of her etched deeply into Tang Li Xue''s mind so Tang Li Xue did not dare to ask Yaya to do anything recklessly anymore.
Tang Li Xue only warned Yaya to follow her closely from behind.
Yaya already protested to Tang Li Xue about this since they walked on this wooden bridge but Tang Li Xue only reprimanded Yaya back so Yaya could only pout her lips in unhappiness.
The two-tailed white fox was walking one meter away from Tang Li Xue. It did have any scouting type divine ability like the two-tailed yellow thief fox so it could only proceed more carefully than Tang Li Xue.
The white fog was getting thicker and thicker on their way until Tang Li Xue could no longer even see her own paw anymore. She could not even see her snout anymore!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue and Yaya could still sense each other''s location from their connection otherwise they would have been already separated since a long time ago.
There was no sound along their way, only extreme silence.
Tang Li Xue tried to bark loudly but she still failed to make any noise.
Tang Li Xue decided to unsummon her martial soul and canceled her [Ethereal Form] divine ability to conserve her stamina since she also could not see anything through her martial soul''s eyes.
Tang Li Xue did now know how long she had been walking but it was surely very very long.
Maybe tens of hours, maybe several days... she did not know since she already lost her concept of time here.
Fortunately, she managed to see some lights in front of her in the end.
Tang Li Xue used her [Blink] skill repeatedly and dashed as fast as she could toward the lights.
At longst, after facing so many hardsh.i.p.s... she finally arrived at this ce!
Chapter 135 - 135: Foxes Home!
Chapter 135 - 135: Foxes Home!
It was just that this ce was not quite the same as what she imagined before.
This Foxes Home was protected by wood fences and gate but they were so shabby.
Even Tang Li Xue started to doubt if this small vige was truly the paradise of all fox species, the Foxes Home.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya could clearly saw all the buildings stood inside the wooden fence were also really shabby.
The shabby wooden gate slowly opened and the ck-haired examiner, Mei Lan let Tang Li Xue in.
Tang Li Xue stared at the two-tailed white fox, the two-tailed purple fox, and the two-tailed yellow thief fox behind Mei Lan.
It looked like they all already arrived first before her.
"Congrattion, you all already passed thest trial! Wee to the Foxes Home! You all follow me now! I will show you where our Inspector ss would be held every day." Mei Lan waved her palm and walked deeper into the shabby vige.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the other foxes followed behind Mei Lan and walked on the small while observing the vige.
There were many fox cubs running around and ying while their fox parents kept an eye on their children with a warm gaze in their eyes.
Some old foxes held a smoking pipe with their paws and smoking with a satisfied face in front of their huts.
The atmosphere in this Foxes Home was really warm, peaceful, andfortable.
Tang Li Xue immediately felt as if she returned home even though she was sure that she never set her foot here.
The ck-haired examiner, Mei Lan showed where they would live from now on and where they will attend their ss from morning until noon every day.
"Remember, my name is Mei Lan and you all can call me Instructor Lan! But you all still cannot talk yet so... oh you can forget for now hehe... You all can go back to your house now! Do not forget to attend the ss in the early morning tomorrow or you will get punished!" Mei Lan giggled after teasing them for a while then drove them back to their houses.
Actually, rather than a house, it was more appropriate to call it a dpidated hut.
Tang Li Xue was a bit disappointed but she did notin since she already lived in poverty too in her previous life so as long as she still has delicious warm food to eat everyday then she will neverin.
One of the foxes from this vige delivered some roasted meats and warm soup to their room at noon for lunch and at night for dinner.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya shared the food equally between them every time but Tang Li Xue secretly gave Yaya more from her portion since she could use her low-tier spirit stones produced by her martial soul for her cultivation and reduce her hunger.
The next morning, Tang Li Xue woke Yaya early in the morning and took Yaya to attend the Inspector ss with the other foxes after finished their breakfast.
The ck-haired beauty instructor, Mei Lan already waited for them all in their ss and the ss immediately begin after they entered the ss.
At first, all the foxes including Tang Li Xue had a hard time understanding any of Mei Lan''s lessons due to ack ofmunication since all the foxes could not talk.
Fortunately, they slowly adapted after a few days and Mei Lan taught them patiently again and again.
Tang Li Xue wanted to reprimand Yaya because Yaya kept falling asleep in the ss but Instructor Lan stopped her.
Instructor Lan said Yaya was still a baby and she need to sleep and eat a lot to grow up.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched when she heard that and wanted to protest: ''I am only two months old in this world! I am a baby too! I want to sleep in the ss too like Yaya!''
But she did not dare to say it out loud to Instructor Lan so she could only swallow her words back.
However, overall Tang Li Xue was quite satisfied with her current lifestyle in this Foxes Home.
She was getting closer and closer to all the local residents here. It was really peaceful and she could feel their warmness too.
Yaya also asionally yed happily with several cute fox cubs here.
Under Instructor Lan''s strict guidance, Tang Li Xue and the other foxes were sparring every day in the afternoon.
Without anyone noticed, one month had already passed and it was time for Tang Li Xue to evolve into a demonic beast!
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a while whether she should tell Instructor Lan about her evolution or not but she decided to tell her in the end.
Instructor Lan was very surprised when she heard Tang Li Xue already on the verge of her next evolution so she brought Tang Li Xue to an old altar at the center of the vige.
Tang Li Xue immediately evolved into Royal Moon Fox the moment she stepped onto the old altar.
The process was really quick and she did not feel any itchiness or pain at all.
Due to her timely evolution, Tang Li Xue became the strongest in her ss the next day and she managed to defeat all of her ssmates alone!
Instructor Lan took more time to instruct her made Tang Li Xue got stronger at a faster pace every day.
A few months passed after Tang Li Xue evolved into Royal Moon Fox and Instructor Lan finally did not have any more things to teach to Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Lan rmended Tang Li Xue to enter Elite ss but several Elite Instructors still held some doubts in Tang Li Xue''s ability.
In the end, they decided to give Tang Li Xue a chance then set a match between her and someone from Elite ss.
If Tang Li Xue could defeat the student from Elite ss then they would allow her to join Elite ss.
Who knows that Tang Li Xue''s opponent was actually her previous admirer, the silly fox, Fox Sith.
Fox Sith decided to give up after they stepped onto the stage but before they fought and Tang Li Xue officially join Elite ss from now on.
After entering Elite ss, Tang Li Xue was like a fish entering back into the water.
She improved even faster than before with all the resources she got from Elite ss.
After a few years, she finally managed to evolve into a spirit beast!
Moreover, since she already had Dantian before and began her cultivation like a human earlier, she instantly skipped the stages where her beast power sealed for a while and jumped to the matured spirit beast stage in one single step!
Not only she regained her human form, but she also awakened a very powerful divine ability, Moon Goddess Strength!
Yaya also got matured more and more, her current appearance now was almost identical to her mother and her wind power also became even more powerful than before.
However, the current Tang Li Xue did not need to use Yaya''s power and entered [Divine Possession] anymore since her current strength was already far surpassed all the instructors, even Instructor Lan was no longer her opponent!
Tang Li Xue could hardly find any fox of equal strength to her for her sparring partner in this Foxes Home right now, so she decided to ask permission to leave for a few months from Foxes Home.
All the elder foxes in Foxes Home approved her request almost immediately.
They said that she needs to broaden her horizon and travel to many ces in order to get stronger and evolve further.
Tang Li Xue wanted to take Yaya with her but unfortunately, she refused it.
Yaya was already really attached to this Foxes Home and she also had many friends here so she could not bear to leave here for a few months with Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue could only helplessly bid her farewell to Yaya and warned Yaya to take care of herself better when she was gone for a few monthster.
The first stop Tang Li Xue visited after she left the Foxes Home was the ce where she was born, the Moonlight Forest.
Tang Li Xue was quite surprised when she scanned the entire Moonlight Forest with her divine sense.
She discovered that there were six high-rank spirit beasts residing in this Moonlight Forest.
Tang Li Xue did not waste any more time. She magnified her voice with her Qi and challenged all of them at once!
The six high-rank spirit beasts felt offended because of Tang Li Xue''s insolent behavior so they immediately flew toward her and scolded her harshly.
Tang Li Xue was not smart enough to win the scold battle with them using her mouth so she decided to attack them all at once.
The six high-rank spirit beasts in this Moonlight Forest were very powerful. They were more powerful than the elder foxes from the Foxes home.
Tang Li Xue fought with them for twelve days and twelve nights nonstop before she barely managed to defeat them all.
However, Tang Li Xue spared all the six high-rank spirit beasts'' lives in the end since she really never had any intention to kill them all since the very start.
The six high-rank spirit beasts felt really grateful for Tang Li Xue''s kindness and they swear their fealty to always follow her order from now on.
After resting for a few months in Moonlight Forest, all the six high-rank spirit beasts'' wounds and Tang Li Xue''s wounds finally curedpletely.
Tang Li Xue left the Moonlight Forest and heading to her next stop, the Asura Demon Sect with all of her new subordinate, the powerful six high-rank spirit beasts.
Chapter 136 - 136: Flipping Asura Demon Sect Upside Down!
Chapter 136 - 136: Flipping Asura Demon Sect Upside Down!
After Tang Li Xue and the six high-rank spirit beasts arrived at the Asura Demon Sect''s entrance, she did not bother to say anything and kicked the giant gate until it flew away.
The giant gate crashed onto some buildings in the sect almost made the buildings nearly copsed while the six high-rank spirit beasts easily slew several gate guardians.
Tang Li Xue dashed toward the fatty uncle''s residence directly without paying any attention to any small fries like disciples or elders, she decided to leave them all for her subordinates, the six high-rank spirit beasts.
BOOOOOOOOOOM~!!!
Tang Li Xue used her power to destroy the fatty uncle''s residence in one devastating attack!
The fatty uncle''s residence crumbled into dust and all the people inside it died in an instant except the fatty uncle, Mo Chonglin himself.
But the fatty uncle''s condition was not that good either. He coughed out several mouthfuls of blood in a kneeled position because he failed to defend Tang Li Xue''s sudden attack.
Tang Li Xue did not let the fatty uncle have any chance to recover and kicked his fatty stomach as strong as she could!
Under Tang Li Xue''s super strong attack, the fatty uncle''s body flew backward like a cannon bullet and crashed onto several solid buildings behind him made all of the buildings crumbled apart.
Tang Li Xue did a flying kick and her lithe figure vanished from everyone''s view.
BAAAAAANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s flying kicknded right on the fatty uncle''s face, she managed to break his nose and almost all of his teeth.
The fatty uncle flew backward once again but Tang Li Xue still did not let the fatty uncle go as her slender figure vanished once again.
Tang Li Xue threw countless punches toward the fatty uncle, each punch packed with her full strength without holding even a bit of her power back!
Countless earth-shattering punches smashed mercilessly onto the fatty uncle''s body and it made ear-splitting sounds continuously.
The fatty uncle kept flying backward, crashed onto many buildings behind him until it all copsed but Tang Li Xue kept chasing after him and her powerful fists kept stomping his body violently again and again shattering every bone in his body.
Tens of elders from Asura Demon Sect could no longer bear to see their leader to be beaten like that and rushed to save him.
However, Tang Li Xue''s subordinates, the six high-rank spirit beasts will never let them do as they wanted and quickly intercepted them!
The six high-rank spirit beasts were overwhelmingly strong, almost as strong as Tang Li Xue herself when theybined their strength so how could the elders'' from the Asura Demon Sect win against them.
The six high-rank spirit beasts easily crushed many of Asura Demon Sect''s elders with their fierce attacks!
Tang Li Xue held the unconscious fatty uncle''s robe cor and pulled him out from under the rubbles like a rag.
Tang Li Xue threw the fatty uncle lightly upward and kicked his Dantian using all of her strength!
The fatty uncle screamed loudly like a ughtered pig when Tang Li Xue''s kicknded on his Dantian.
The golden core inside the fatty uncle''s Dantian shattered into dust under Tang Li Xue''s kick and the fatty uncle''s crippled body smashed onto the ground creating a deep pit with his fatty body shape on the solid ground.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she has beaten the fatty uncle to death. She felt really refreshed and relieved after she vented all of her hatred and aggravation back to this fatty uncle.
But just when Tang Li Xue wanted to leave the Asura Demon Sect with all of her new subordinates, a gigantic pressureing down and pressed onto Tang Li Xue''s body with all of her subordinates.
Tang Li Xue tilted her head upward and saw an old man with a long beard descended down from the sky.
''Oh? This old man should be fatty uncle''s father! Let''s see how strong you are!''
Tang Li Xue also used her power and her slender figure started to fly up to meet with the old man.
The old man stared at the deep hole on the ground where the fatty uncle''s corpse buried and his face turned ugly filled with rage.
He started to crazily attack Tang Li Xue and Tang Li Xue also did not hesitate to attack back!
All of the old man''s attacks were really tricky and vicious, not giving Tang Li Xue any chance to counterattack.
At first, Tang Li Xue could only defend and parry all of his attacks carefully but after she knew all of the old man''s attack patterns, she started to counterattack.
In the end, Tang Li Xue managed tond one fatal blow on the old man''s vital point when the old man showed a sign of fatigue after fighting for more than ten hours.
Tang Li Xue took this chance to kill the old man while her subordinates, the six high-rank spirit beasts also managed to ughter all the elders and disciples of the Asura Demon Sect.
Tang Li Xue decided to burn the entire Asura Demon Sect with her deep-blue me to erase all of her subordinates'' traces and her own traces.
However, when Tang Li Xue took thest peek on the burning Asura Demon Sect, she saw something creepy stood in midst of it.
A ck-robed man with long ck hair stood in the middle of burning Asura Demon Sect but this ck-robed man did not have any face!
Tang Li Xue wiped her eyes in doubt but she could no longer find the faceless ck-robed man anymore when she looked at the burning Asura Demon Sect.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and left from Asura Demon Sect together with her all of her subordinates, the six high-rank spirit beasts back to the Moonlight Forest.
Using the Moonlight Forest as her base, Tang Li Xue started to conquer the nearby city one by one and expanded her territory bit by bit.
After a few years, Tang Li Xue managed to conquer the entire South Prefecture.
She even almost conquered a fourth of the Lightwind Continent.
She has countless powerful subordinates under her, many of them were beasts but some of them were humans.
But Tang Li Xue currently did not feel happy or satisfied at all.
On the contrary, she was frowned deeply while sitting elegantly on her golden dragon throne.
Her crimson phoenix dress made her looks so gorgeous and graceful looked almost like a celestial being.
The golden crown on the top of her head filled with many topaz blue gems like the color of her eyes and her long silver hair was so smooth and silky.
"Sigh... until when I must keep ying around like this..." Tang Li Xue sighed while rubbing her forehead with her slender finger.
All of her subordinates that kneeled in front of her looked at each other at confusion but they still did not dare to ask Tang Li Xue directly.
Why did her highness feel discontent?
Was it because they did not conquer enough territory for her?
All of Tang Li Xue''s subordinates started to rack their brain to satisfy their gorgeous Queen''s wishes.
Unfortunately, they were fated to never be able to fulfill her wishes.
Tang Li Xue opened her own status window in her system with her thought.

That was right... Her current status did not change at all!
Even her species was still a Moon Fox and her current grade was still at [Common] grade!
Actually, Tang Li Xue already felt there was something wrong the moment she came out from the thick white fog and entered the Foxes Home.
At first, Tang Li Xue did not know why she could felt that but now Tang Li Xue already realized it was all because of this azure metal ring she wore as a ne on her neck.
[Huang Family Heirloom Ring]
[Description: The treasure of Huang Family''s Head that was passed down from generation to generation.]
[Effect 1: Illusion Immunity (The wearer can feel it when they fall under the illusion effect and they can break out from it anytime they want)]
[Effect 2: Luck +30]
[Effect 3: ???]
Tang Li Xue still could not remember where she got this awesome azure ring from but since this treasure has so many marvelous effects like [Illusion Immunity] and [Luck +30], she nned to always wear it anytime anywhere from now on.
But the problem she faced right now was she still could not break out from this illusion even with this [Huang Family Heirloom Ring]''s help!
"This should be that darned shabby wooden bridge''s effect! Its illusion effect is too powerful that even with this ring effect, I still cannot break out from this illusion!" Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance.
"Sigh... What should I do now to break out from this illusion? I don''t even know how much time had already passed outside... Don''t tell me I have to spend my entire life here if I cannot break out from this illusion!" Tang Li Xue stood up in agitation and walked back and forth in her court while thinking deeply.
All of her subordinates faithfully followed behind her and walked back and forth too inside the imperial court.
Now Tang Li Xue understood what Instructor Lan... err... Examiner Lan means by thisst trial would not threatening their life at all.
It was because they will be trapped forever inside this illusion if they could not break out of it!
"Sincerity... Sincerity... so this trial is testing our sincerity? What sincerity is currently being tested anyway?!"
"Maybe the answer lies in the Foxes Home?"
"Maybe I should never leave the Foxes Home since the very start? Impossible!"
"I went out from Foxes Home before because I followed Instructor Lan''s suggestion before!"
"Oh well, it is already toote for me to regret it now anyway. But I can still try to go back to Foxes Home and see what will happen there right now! Maybe... No! Hopefully, my real answer and way out really lie there..." Tang Li Xue gripped her fist tighter and her topaz blue eyes shone with determination.
Chapter 137 - 137: Foxes Homes Current Situation
Chapter 137 - 137: Foxes Home''s Current Situation
Thunder crackled on the skies, the looming dark grey clouds started to cover the blue skies and the bright sun made the skies above darkened like a night skies without any stars.
Tang Li Xue was flying with lightning speed across the skies while looking above her head.
She frowned deeply as a very bad feeling started to creeping inside her heart.
Tang Li Xue suppressed her anxiousness and increased her speed to maximum, her slender figure covered by her crimson phoenix dress turned into a streak of the bright red line on the dark somber skies.
With Tang Li Xue''s current strength, she could reach the Foxes Home in only one and a half-day if she was flying with her full speed.
Tang Li Xue managed to arrive back at Foxes Home in the next morning.
However, the choking gloomy atmosphere has already covered the entire Foxes Home which shown that Tang Li Xue''s bad premonition was not wrong at all.
Tang Li Xue hastily entered the Foxes Home''s shabby wooden gate and directly went to Instructor Lan''s house.
Along her way, Tang Li Xue found that every fox lived in this Foxes Home was already changed.
They were no longer as warm and energetic as before.
On the contrary, they shut the door of their house tightly and hiding inside it while taking a peek at her from their window.
All of their stares were cold and unfeeling, full of suspicion and distrust. It made Tang Li Xue felt really ufortable.
Tang Li Xue quickened her pace and she arrived at Instructor Lan''s house not long after that.
She did not hesitate to knock the door a few times.
"The door is unlocked. You cane in." Instructor Lan''s sweet gentle voice resounded from inside the house.
Tang Li Xue opened the door and stepped into Instructor Lan''s house but she immediately stunned when she saw Instructor Lan miserable state.
Instructor Lan lied down on her bed with the face as pale as a piece of white paper.
Her right arm had already gone only leaving an empty loose sleeve. Tang Li Xue also did not see Instructor Lan''s silky ck-furred tail anymore.
"Instructor Lan!" Tang Li Xue ran over to Instructor Lan and held her left hand full of worry.
Although, Tang Li Xue already knew that all of these including the Instructor Lan in front of her were only an illusion made by the wooden bridge but she could not help to feel worried when she saw Instructor Lan''s current condition.
Because no matter if this were real or not, Tang Li Xue already spent several years under Instructor Lan''s teaching in this illusion so she also already had some emotional attachment with Instructor Lan.
"Xue''er! My beloved student... you finallye back..." A beautiful smile was blooming on Instructor Lan''s pale face and she tried to stand up from her bed.
Tang Li Xue quickly held Instructor Lan''s shoulder and helped her up but the moment Instructor Lan sat on her bed, she immediately coughed out several mouthfuls of blood.
Tang Li Xue patted Instructor Lan''s back while channeling her vitality energy to Instructor Lan''s weak sickly body to make her feel better.
After Instructor Lan felt a bit better, Tang Li Xue took out her handkerchief and wiped Instructor Lan''s blood on her mouth.
"Xue''er... I am so sorry!" Instructor Lan lowered her head to Tang Li Xue and apologize but it worsened her body condition and she coughed out several mouthfuls of blood again.
Tang Li Xue kept channeling her vitality energy to Instructor Lan but she frowned when she found out that Instructor Lan''s wounds were too severe and Tang Li Xue could no longer cure her anymore.
In fact, Instructor Lan was only a half step away from death. She could only hold until now by relying on her sheer of willpower.
" Xue''er, my life will notst long anymore so listen to me carefully but you must promise me to not act rashly after that." Instructor Lan gripped Tang Li Xue''s hand tightly with her only left hand.
''Sigh... Fortunately, this is only an illusion! But this situation is also a good lesson for me. The next time I get some [Recovery Pills], I must save it so I can use it to cure the people closest to me when I am encountering the critical situation like this in reality!'' Tang Li Xue thought.
"Instructor Lan, I promise I will never act rashly. You can rest assured and tell me what happened after I left." Tang Li Xue held Instructor Lan''s left palm tightly with both of her hands.
Instructor Lan told Tang Li Xue what exactly happened after she left the Foxes Home slowly but even so, Instructor Lan started to breathe heavily and sweat began to pour out from her forehead.
.....
...
.
Everything seems peaceful Foxes Home at first after Tang Li Xue left but unfortunately, it did notst long.
One year after Tang Li Xue left, the other instructors including instructor Lan started to recruit some new students as usual.
After screening them through several trials, they joined the Foxes Home like Tang Li Xue and the others.
But who knows that some traitors were still managed to slip in and mixed between them, they assaulted all of the instructors when the instructors let their guards down.
The traitors sessfully killed some instructors and crippled many of them including Instructor Lan. They also stole many valuable treasures from Foxes Home''s storage house.
When all the traitors tried to break out from the Foxes Home, they even ughtered many innocent foxes along their way and made all the Foxes Home''s residents losing their trust to any outsiders.
However, those were not the only things they did!
They were also abducting many fox cubs as their hostages... including Tang Li Xue''s best friend, Yaya!
And their whereabouts were still unknown until now!
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in anger and hatred the moment she heard that. Her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes immediately turned grim full of sharp murderous intent.
Now she knew why Instructor Lan apologized to her before.
It was because Instructor Lan felt really guilty to her since Instructor Lan could not protect her beloved student''s best friend.
Tang Li Xue kept reminding herself that all of these were only an illusion to calm down.
Actually, if these were reality Tang Li Xue could simply push the > button in Yaya''s status window to recall Yaya back into her system storage.
Then she only needs to push the > button again to summon Yaya out to her side.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue could not do that in this illusion since the ''Yaya'' in here was not the real one but also a part of the illusion.
Tang Li Xue continued to listen to Instructor Lan''s story...
It was revealed a few weeks ago that the traitor foxes were actually under the ve contracts with humans as their masters.
The traitor foxes came back to the Foxes Home with their human masters and they also brought back all their hostages with them.
Of course, they all did note to make peace!
They demanded the Foxes Home to surrender and let them enved all the foxes in the Foxes Home!
The Foxes Home refused their demand and immediately activated the protection formation to prevent the traitor foxes and their human masters from entering here!
In a fit of rage, the traitors'' masters swore to kill one fox cub every day if the Foxes Home did not surrender to them.
Many a.d.u.l.t foxes in the Foxes Home ran outside to save their cubs and in the end, they epted to be enved by those despicable humans.
It was already a few weeks after that so there were more than ten fox cubs already died in their hands outside the Foxes Home.
Almost half of the foxes in the Foxes Home already enved by those despicable humans in order for their cubs to be spared from being killed.
If this continues, the Foxes Home would surely be crumbled apart.
"More than half of the instructors in the Foxes Home already died or crippled because of those traitors. We don''t have enough strength to oppose them so Xue''er... please, help us to fight them back! With your powerful strength, you should be able to... cough... cough... oeeeekh!" Instructor Lan puked out arge amount of blood from her mouth.
However, she still gripped Tang Li Xue''s hand tightly with her remaining left hand. Her weary sleepy eyes stared at Tang Li Xue full of hope, trust, and expectation.
Tang Li Xue clutched Instructor Lan''s left palm with both of her hands and swore to her with the solemn expression: "Instructor Lan, leave everything to me! I promise I will use my every effort to protect the Foxes Home with all of my strength!"
Instructor Lan''s beautiful smile blossomed for onest time as she slowly closed her weary eyes with contented expression and hugged Tang Li Xue''s slender body in delight.
Her left hand slumped down from Tang Li Xue''s grip as she was gone forever from this world.
Tang Li Xue almost bawling out loud when Instructor Lan stopped breathing in her embrace but she kept reminding herself that this was all only an illusion while sobbing softly.
Tang Li Xue made Instructor Lan''s tombstone and buried Instructor Lan''s dead body in her backyard.
Although this was only an illusion but it did not mean she could just casually throw Instructor Lan''s dead body away randomly.
When Tang Li Xue was still mourning the Instructor Lan''s dead and held the funeral ceremony for her teacher...
"HEI, PATHETIC FOXES! Wee back again today! Who wants to surrender today quicklye out and you can reunite with your child! Like usual if you submit to us we will not kill your child! But if you are not... hehehehe!"
The loud hoarse voice resounded through the entire Foxes Home and even Tang Li Xue could clearly hear it from inside the Instructor Lan''s backyard.
Chapter 138 - 138: I Am Willing To Die To Be With You!
Chapter 138 - 138: I Am Willing To Die To Be With You!
Tang Li Xue opened her cold eyes after she finished her prayers and her lithe figure instantly vanished from the backyard as she dashed toward the Foxes Home''s entrance.
She took a look at the skies and saw a giant golden-colored dome-like barrier covered the entire Foxes Home.
Tang Li Xue guessed that this golden barrier was the protection formation activated to protect the entire Foxes Home from those invaders.
Not long after that, Tang Li Xue arrived at the Foxes Home''s shabby wooden gate.
She saw many old instructors and fox elders already grabbed their weapons and readying themselves to fight with the traitors along with their treacherous human masters outside.
These old instructors and fox elders have a furry fox tail and a pair of furry fox ears too just like Instructor Lan and their current strength also more or less at the same level at Instructor Lan.
All the old instructors and elders nodded to Tang Li Xue when they saw her came. Their warm gaze was mixed with respect and admiration.
Tang Li Xue smiled and nodded back at them then she turned her attention toward the opponents in front of the Foxes Home''s wooden gate, outside the protective barrier.
There were more than fifty people mounted on the top of the steed-sized two or three-tailed foxes.
Their momentum and aura were so menacing that even Tang Li Xue with her current strength felt threatened by their presence.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she felt the pressure from the enemies.
She believed she can win with her strength if she only fought with three to five of them at once but if she fought with all fifty of them at once, she would certainly lose.
As for these old instructors and fox elders from Foxes Home... to be honest these old instructors would never be able to win even if five of them fought against anyone of those powerful humans outside so they would not be able to help her much.
"We heard one of your powerful studentse back today so we deliberatelye here earlier than usual to greet her! Let here out to meet us or we will kill more fox cubs today!" One of the humans walked forward and spoke in a threatening manner.
Tang Li Xue observed the one that spoke and found his aura was more refined and sharp than the other. It was clear that this person was the leader of this group of vile humans.
Even Tang Li Xue with her current powerful strength only had like thirty to forty percent chance of winning if she fought one on one with this leader.
"I am Tang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan''s student! I don''t care who you all are, I only want to ask which one of you that dare to hurt my teacher?!" Tang Li Xue shouted back.
Her voice was trembling a bit because she held so much hatred and anger toward all of these people. Even now, she could only barely contain her fury back from exploding.
The expression of the old instructors from the Foxes Home turned solemn when they heard the human leader words.
Since these vile humans were able to find out that Tang Li Xue came back today to the Foxes Home, it meant there were some traitors mixed among them who leaked the information to these outsiders.
"Oh, that beautiful old hag? So you are her student? No wonder you are also really beautiful just like her! This is going to be interesting hehehe..." The leader of the human groupughed lecherously while stared at Tang Li Xue''s slender figure full of passion.
The leader waved his hand and his subordinate brought two creatures out from behind him.
"Xue! Help me! Release me from these people!" Green dress fairy shouted with her childish voice asking help from Tang Li Xue with teary eyes.
The green dress fairy was none other than Tang Li Xue''s best friend, Yaya.
The a.d.u.l.t Yaya''s size was already as big as the usual teenage human girls,bined with her fair skin and smooth silky green long hair, she was absolutely far more stunning than any human girl.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth to hold down her urge to jump out and save the a.d.u.l.t Yaya from these wicked people''s dirty hands.
"Ooow... very heartwarming! Xue...er? I heard this cute fairy here is your best friend so I brought her back to you here personally." The leader held the bounded Yaya''s slender waist with her right hand and leisurely said to Tang Li Xue.
"I even brought the traitor fox that previously crippled your beloved teacher here so you can exact your revenge with your own hands right away." The leader kicked the three-tailed fox in front of him like a piece of useless rag.
"Hmmm... How about it? Are you feeling touched by my kindness? Thene out! As long as you pledge your loyalty to me, I promise you to not only release your best friend, you can also exact your revenge. I will even make you my favorite concubine and dote on you every day!" The leader tried to tempt Tang Li Xue with his promise.
"...Then what will happen if I refuse?" Tang Li Xue''s expression did not change as she asked the leader of the humans'' group with a cold tone.
The leader''s lecherous smile disappeared from his face when he heard Tang Li Xue''s cold words and angrily answering: "Then I will kill your friend in front of your eyes right now and after I destroyed this shabby vige, I will catch you alive and let all of my people and pets enjoy your body until the day you die!"
The leader unsheathed his sharp treasured sword and put it on Yaya''s neck then shouting angrily: "Beauty, you better consider it slowly and choose carefully! I am surely not a patient guy so your best friend''s head will surely fly away from her neck if you make me angry!"
"Xue! Please, help me! Just agree to his request for now! I have a way to bring the two of us away after he released meter! Both of us will go far away from here so these people will not be able to find us anymore!" Yaya sent some messages to Tang Li Xue''s mind telepathically.
"I heard from the instructor before that you build your kingdom outside. We can go back there and build our strength slowly. I believe Xue will definitely be able to defeat all of these wicked humans a few yearster!" Yaya kept sending messages to Tang Li Xue''s mind telepathically.
Tang Li Xue''s cherry lips twitched when she heard Yaya''s message in her mind.
If Tang Li Xue did not know that all of these were only an illusion, she would probably already start to waver and hesitate by now.
''Now what? If I epted this bast*rd''s offer like what Yaya said, I probably would fail thisst trial instantly.''
''But if I refused this vile leader''s offer right away and he killed Yaya, does that mean I betrayed Yaya in this illusion?''
''So I have to choose between betraying Yaya or betraying the Foxes Home right now? Sigh... what cruel choices!''
Tang Li Xue coughed a bit to clear her throat after she made her choice then she shouted out to Yaya with a sad expression: "Yaya, I am sorry but I can''t follow your suggestion... I already promise Instructor Lan before that I will defend the Foxes Home with all of my strength!"
"Xue... Why?" Yaya''s tears started to dripping out from her emerald green eyes. Her eyes stared at Tang Li Xue full of disappointment, sadness, and despair.
"But you don''t need to worry. I promise I will apany you together to theherworld so please wait for me for a while there... I owe Foxes Home and Instructor Lan my life for nurturing me until now but for you, I am willing to die to be with you!" Tang Li Xue gave her warmestst smile to Yaya.
Yaya was shocked and dumbfounded at first but then the beautiful smile started to bloom on her face as she mumbled with her quivering voice: "Idiot Xue... I prefer more if you stay alive for me..."
"Are you done saying yourst farewell? Good then, goodbye!" The human group''s leader asked in a cold voice then swung his sharp sword to Yaya''s neck.
The leader sharp treasured sword chopped Yaya''s neck and her head dropped down to the ground then rolled onto the leader''s feet.
"Everyone get ready! We will y all those treacherous humans who dare to invade ournd!" Tang Li Xue was unfazed and she shouted out to encourage all the people on her side.
Actually, the reason she unfazed when she saw the human group''s leader chopped Yaya''s head was because she always convinced herself that all of these were an illusion.
Tang Li Xue led all the old instructors and fox elders out from the Foxes Home skillfully and charged toward the group of treacherous foxes and vile humans in a neat arrowhead formation.
Although their enemies have far more overwhelming strength but Tang Li Xue''s group has more people about more than twice of their enemies'' number!
Tang Li Xue knew that her group would never be able to win against the group of humans so she only nned to use them as a cover to push their enemies to the more advantageous ground for Tang Li Xue.
While Tang Li Xue herself did not hold any of her strength back and kept killing her enemies one by one swiftly to reduce the pressure on her group.
When they arrived at the narrow alley, almost all of the old instructors and fox elders from Tang Li Xue''s group died but Tang Li Xue also managed to kill more than half of the humans including their traitorous fox mounts by herself.
The human group''s leader roared as he slew thest elder from Tang Li Xue''s group and charged toward Tang Li Xue with his sharp treasured sword on his hand.
Tang Li Xue pulled out the enemy spear that stuck in her abdomen after she smashed the enemy''s head with her fist then she threw the spear toward the human group''s leader that charged onto her.
''Arrrggghhh... Dammit! It hurts! It really hurts! Is this really an illusion?! How could I feel this much hurt in this fake illusion?!'' Tang Li Xue grumbled in her mind but her current cold expression still did not change even a bit.
The human group''s leader easily deflected the spear with his sword and he immediately thrust his sword to Tang Li Xue''s neck.
Tang Li Xue jumped backward to dodge the leader''s sword attack while counting her remaining enemies.
There were still nine of them alive including their strong leader!
But her body already wounded all over the ce because she disregarded all of her defense in order to kill her enemies quicker. Moreover, she almost ran out of her stamina, and vitality energy also almost exhausted now.
Pitter... Patter... Pitter... Patter...
Tang Li Xue''s blood kept flowing out from her body and dripping down to the ground.
Fortunately, she forced them to fight in this narrow alley so they could not besiege her from all directions.
They could only attack her from her front, behind, or above.
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate anymore and sprinting toward her enemies with all of her speed and her lithe figurepletely vanished from everyone''s view!
The nine people including the powerful leader raised their weapons and dashed toward Tang Li Xue too while roaring out loud.
The nine people including their leader would never think that Tang Li Xue did not dodge or defend from all of their attacks at all!
She only let all of their ruthless attacksnded onto her slender body while swinging the two swords she took from the humans she killed before. She hid the two swords inside both her sleeve until now.
PUUUFFF... PUUUFFF... PUUUFFF...
"I will die... but I swear to bring you all with me!" Tang Li Xue''s two swords chopped seven human heads in front of her swiftly.
"You b*tch! Go to hell now!" The leader shouted and swung his sharp treasured sword onto Tang Li Xue''s neck.
PPPPPSSSSSHHHH~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s head flew away from her neck and her headless body slumped down onto the ground.
However, Tang Li Xue still managed to throw her two swords toward the leader''s chest and thest person''s neck at thest moment.
The human group''s leader coughed out several mouthfuls of blood while staring menacingly at Tang Li Xue''s headless body.
Then he dropped backward after breathing hisst with his eyes kept opening.
Chapter 139 - 139: Entering the True Foxes Home!
Chapter 139 - 139: Entering the True ''Foxes Home''!
.....
...
.
The ck-haired examiner, Mei Lan flew directly to the end of the Bridge of Sincerity and waited patiently for her student candidates to pass thisst trial.
She had a special badge from Foxes Home, so the illusion from the Bridge of Sincerity would never be able to affect her.
However, a deep frown appeared on her beautiful gentle face from time to time.
It was true that thisst trial was quite easy and not life-threatening at all but its difficulty level actually differs for every fox since thisst trial examined the participants'' overall attitude.
The first phase of the illusion made by the Bridge of Sincerity was to test the participants'' attitude after they became strong enough.
If they were still too meek and timid by then they would fail.
If they became arrogant andwless then became more insolent until they rebelled in the end, they would fail too.
The second phase of thest trial was when the participants were forced out of the Foxes Home to gain more experience outside.
If they held no ambition and only dilly dally around enjoying their life without any intention to get stronger, they would fail.
But if they held too much ambition andpletely forgot about the Foxes Hometer, they would fail too in the end!
Thest phase of thest trial was especially important!
It tested the participants'' willingness to sacrifice for the Foxes Home if the Foxes Home was encountering a perilous situation where it almost extinct.
Any superpower faction like every kingdom or sect including Foxes Home would never want to ept any people that would backstab their back anytime especially when they were facing the critical situation, right?!
Every faction only wanted to ept and nurture the people who could be loyal to their faction and defend their faction until thest drop of their blood if it was facing some great dangerster.
So if the participants chose to run away with their tail between their legs before they even fought, they would certainly fail.
Let alone if they chose to join the Foxes Home''s enemies in the end! The examiner would probably execute them on the spot if they really chose to do that!
Of course, the participants did not need to sacrifice their life until the end like what Tang Li Xue did. The examiner only needs to see if all the participants had enough guts to fight for their home.
They could run away at thest moment after the Foxes Home copsedter but at least they must dare to fight all the traitors and human invaders first before that happen!
The ck-haired examiner, Mei Lan nced at the green fairy who hovering anxiously near the Bridge of Sincerity.
Mei Lan really never thought the first one that sessfully passed the Bridge of Sincerity''s trial was noting from the fox race but actually this green fairy.
Actually, the green fairy, Yaya did not even encounter any trial or illusion along her way at all.
With her [Wind God''s Endowment], Yaya also received the protection from Wind God made her immune to all illusion and mind-control type abilities or skills.
If Tang Li Xue entered [Divine Possession] with Yaya first before she walked onto the Bridge of Sincerity, she would gain this immunity too but unfortunately, she did not know any about this immunity nor about the illusion trial in the Bridge of Sincerity.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue''s body was still lying in the middle of the Bridge of Sincerity but she suddenly opened her topaz blue eyes and jumped to her feet.
She coughed violently nonstop and puked her saliva out while holding her furry neck with her right paw.
''Holysh*t! Is that really an illusion?! It really hurts like hell! I truly feel like my neck has been chopped and my head flies away from my body!'' Tang Li Xue thought while her tears started to flow out from her eyes.
The feeling Tang Li Xue got from dying in the illusion was so real. She almost thought that she had been sent to meet Grandma Meng again in theherworld.
Tang Li Xue calmed down a lot after ten minutes or so, she also realized Yaya kept sending messages to her through the connection in their mind.
''Oh, Yaya? Okay, calm down... I am alright! Eh... you already came out first?! Just stay there and wait for me! I wille to where you are right now!'' Tang Li Xue used their connection to answer back to Yaya.
Tang Li Xue walked carefully since she still could not see anything inside this thick white fog so she could only trace Yaya''s location via her mind connection with Yaya and follow it so she could head toward where Yaya was right now.
After Tang Li Xue walked for who knows how long since she already lost her sense of time since a long time ago, she finally saw the scene in front of her eyes got clearer and clearer.
When Tang Li Xue could see everything around her very clearly, she realized that already stepped out from the shabby wooden bridge.
Yaya immediately dashed toward Tang Li Xue while bawling out loud and hugged her furry neck.
Tang Li Xue patted Yaya''s head gently with her right paw to calm her down. She also kept coaxing Yaya with her words using their mind connection.
"Good job, kid! You are the third one to pass thisst trial. Not bad at all!" The ck-haired examiner, Mei Lan smiled full of gentleness and praised Tang Li Xue a bit.
''A third...one?''
Tang Li Xue nced at the two-tailed purple fox sitting behind Mei Lan and instantly understood.
Yaya already said to Tang Li Xue before that she was the first one so this two-tailed purple fox with mind-control type divine ability should be the second one to pass thest trial.
Mei Lan took out a bag of dried meat and gave it to Tang Li Xue while saying: "You can eat this first while we are waiting for the other to pass their trial."
Tang Li Xue did not refuse it, she took a few pieces of dried meat and gave the rest to Yaya.
[EXP gained!]
[EXP gained!]
[EXP gained!]
''Good stuff!'' Tang Li Xue shouted in her mind when she felt arge amount of EXP surged inside her body the moment she ate the dried meat and her starvation also reduced by a lot.
The lovely Yaya was still sobbing, she did not want to be separated from Tang Li Xue yet so she kept hugging Tang Li Xue''s neck.
Tang Li Xue did not have any choice other than tore the dried meat little by little to feed Yaya.
Not long after that, the two-tailed white fox with freezing divine ability also walked out from the shabby wooden bridge.
Its pair of white-colored eyes flushed red as if it had just finished crying.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in understanding, she also cried when she woke up from the illusion after her head got lopped by that bast*rd leader in the end.
But Tang Li Xue never thought that this two-tailed white fox would run toward her the moment it saw her and bawling out loud.
''Wha... Eeeeehhhhh... what the hell is happening in this fox''s illusion?! We are not that close, aren''t we?!''
Tang Li Xue felt as if she was struck by lightning out of nowhere!
She was too shocked and dumbfounded so she just stood there silently and let the two-tailed white fox embraced her.
Yaya was the first one to feel annoyed. She stared coldly at the two-tailed white fox full of hostility and she immediately shooting an [Air Bullet] toward it to separate it from Tang Li Xue.
The two-tailed white fox jumped backward to dodge Yaya''s attack and Yaya''s [Air Bullet] only hit the empty ground in front of Tang Li Xue.
The two-tailed white fox and Yaya were staring at each other coldly and the pressure emitted out from their bodies started to sh on.
Tang Li Xue started to have a great headache when she saw how these two acted. She did not even understand why the two-tailed white fox acted so chummy like this to her and why they started to hostile toward each other like this.
Fortunately, they did not fight when Tang Li Xue stepped between them.
After a few hours of waiting, thest fox, the two-tailed yellow thief fox finally passed this Bridge of Sincerity trail too!
Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue when she saw the two-tailed yellow thief fox haggard and pale expression.
Tang Li Xue already underwent thatst trial herself so she knew how difficult that trial was.
In fact, Tang Li Xue herself did not have any confidence to pass the test of attitude from thest trial if she did not know that all of those were only an illusion from her system and the [Huang Family Heirloom Ring] she had.
So Tang Li Xue was quite surprised when she saw this the two-tailed yellow thief fox with its doubtful horrible attitude could pass thisst trial too.
"Congrattion, all of you passed all the trials! I know all of you are already very exhausted but please bear with it a bit longer. I will bring you all to enter our Foxes Home now and you all will need to undergo the baptism first before you can rest." The ck-haired examiner, Mei Lan giggled and congratte all the foxes.
Mei Lan turned her slender body and her long ck silky hair fluttered slightly under the wind. She waved her hand signaled all the foxes to follow her.
After walking for a few minutes, they arrived at the misty forest but Mei Lan stopped her step and she did not enter into the forest.
She silently took out a white jade badge from her space pouch and raise it as if she was showing that white jade badge to the forest.
BRRRT... BRRRT... BRRRT...
The ground below them started to shake violently and the misty forest scene in front of them began to split in two!
That misty forest was actually not really split in two but the space in front of them was the one split in two to be exact!
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the other three foxes were stunned silly the moment they saw the new scene in front of them.
"Come in quick! The space gate will be closed a few secondster!" Mei Lan urged them with her sweet voice and entered the space gate in front of them first.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the other three foxes woke up from their daze and quickly followed their ck-haired examiner.
A few seconds after all of them entered the space gate, the misty forest scene rippled then it returned back to the usual misty forest like before as if nothing happened here at all.
Chapter 140 - 140: Fox Ancestral Pool!
Chapter 140 - 140: Fox Ancestral Pool!
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the other three foxes stunned in awe when they stepped into the space gate and entered the Foxes Home for real this time.
They were stood in the middle of the giant stone ring and there were several tens of other giant stone rings inside this gigantic bright room.
Tang Li Xue peeked at the other group of four people who wore the ck cape with a hood that stood at the other giant stone ring beside them.
The leader of that group raised the white jade badge and the space in front of them split into two.
They walked leisurely toward the space gate and their figures vanished after they stepped out from the space gate then the space on the top of their giant stone ring restored back to normal.
''Woah!!! So these giant stone rings are like the space portal to enter and exit the Foxes Home?! Cool!'' Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise.
Mei Lan jumped down from the giant stone ring and heading toward the gigantic room''s exit.
Tang Li Xue and the other did not dare to be slow so they immediately jumped down from the giant stone ring too and quickly followed behind Mei Lan.
When Tang Li Xue and the other stepped out from the gigantic room, they once again dumbfounded at the scene in front of them.
There was a long open corridor full of people and foxes walking around in front of them but that was not what they were shocked about.
Tang Li Xue felt a bit familiar with the scene in front of her since she had already seen it a few times in hospital TV.
It was just like the most reputable university in her previous world!
But all the majestic luxurious buildings here and the advance architecture made this Foxes Home far superior in every way evenpared to the most reputable university in her previous world.
Even all the majestic buildings in the Asura Demon Sect were not as shocking and luxurious as this Foxes Home.
''What the hell! This Foxes Home is too awesome! Even Hogwa*ds is no more than a shabby old schoolpared to this!''
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched when she remembered the Foxes Home in that Bridge of Sincerity''s illusion.
''What a liar bridge?! At least make the Foxes Home in your illusion more identical to this!''
Tang Li Xue peeked at the green tiles below her feet and found it a bit cold when she touched it. She had a feeling that even all these green tiles with flowing patterns were not made from the ordinary material.
''Just how rich this Foxes Home really is?! Even all of these tiles are not ordinary at all! I wonder how much money I can get if I bring these tiles to the human city and sell it?!''
Mei Lan giggled softly when she noticed the dumbfounded expression on the Tang Li Xue and the other faces.
"Come on, follow me! We will never arrive at our destination ce if you all keep dazing around like this! You can continue to daydreaming after you all finished your registration." Mei Lan waved her palm and continue walking while kept smiling.
Tang Li Xue frowned a bit when she realized that more than half of the poption here were humans but after observing them closely, Tang Li Xue realized all of these humans have a furry fox tail behind them and a pair of fox ears on the top of their head.
''Are they all already reached Spirit Beast level? It should be impossible, right? How could Spirit Beast level this easy to be reached?!''
After more than ten minutes of walking, Tang Li Xue''s group arrived at the Cathedral-like majestic building.
Tang Li Xue would not even feel strange if they met some priests or clerics here.
Mei Lan brought Tang Li Xue and the other foxes toward the reception desk after entering the Cathedral-like giant building.
"Teacher Lan, it''s been a while. Are they your new students this year?" The voluptuous blonde beauty with a pair of yellow fox ears on her head greeted Mei Lan.
"Rong Jie! So today is your shift! Yes, all of these cuties are my new students this year. Can you help me to register them?" Mei Lan excitedly ran to the blonde beauty while taking off her fox mask.
This was the first time Tang Li Xue and the other saw Mei Lan''s true appearance in reality and they were stunned again.
Actually, Tang Li Xue already saw Mei Lan''s true face in the illusion made by the Bridge of Sincerity but Mei Lan''s true appearance in front of her right now was differ greatly from the one in the illusion!
Mei Lan''s face was so beautiful that she looked like a painting. Her skin was white like snow while her soft smooth ck hair hung down about her slender waist. Furthermore, as she stood with a gentle smile on her face under the light of this majestic building, she seemed exceptionally beautiful and moving.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to curse all the illusions she saw before, everything she saw there was actually a fake!
Even Instructor Lan''s appearance there waspletely a fake!
''Liar! This is not my Instructor Lan I know! Give me back my Instructor Lan!''
The blonde beauty threw the bronze badge toward Tang Li Xue and the other. Each fox got one bronze badge.
Tang Li Xue and the other caught the bronze badge and examined it for a while.
The engraving in bronze badge looked identical with Examiner Mei Lan''s white jade badge before, only the material was different.
"You can think of what name you want when you are all holding this badge and your name will be automatically carved onto that badge. Be careful, you can only decide your name now and you cannot change it againter! So think carefully!" The blonde beauty''s expression turned serious and warned all of them with a stern tone.
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate and held the bronze badge tightly while thinking her own name.
''Tang Li Xue'' words instantly engraved on the top of the bronze badge.
The blonde beauty took a look at Tang Li Xue''s name on her bronze badge and wrote it down on the gigantic ck stone monument behind her.
Tang Li Xue nced at the gigantic ck stone monument in front of her and found that there were countless names written on it.
Most of the names written on it shone in gold light but some of them shone in dim blue light.
"The golden name here means you are alive and healthy. If it turned into a red light name, it means you are critically injured and need help. These dim blue light names mean they already died." The blonde beauty noticed Tang Li Xue''s curious gaze and exined casually.
Tang Li Xue and the other shuddered slightly when she heard the blonde beauty''s exnation.
"Why? Are you all scared? When all of you are going on your missionter, you will definitely face some risks so you always have to be careful!" Mei Lan giggled while warned them softly.
Tang Li Xue poked at Mei Lan''s white dress with her paw and pointed at Yaya with a confused look.
Mei Lan understood what Tang Li Xue meant and exined: "Your little fairy doesn''t need to be registered because she is counted as your pet. So you should always keep your eyes on her since if she causes some troubles, the responsibility will fall into your shoulders."
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding while Yaya looked at Tang Li Xue and patted her own chest as if saying ''Yaya will never make trouble! Yaya is a good and obedient kid!''
Tang Li Xue smiled and patted Yaya''s head gently.
After the blonde beauty wrote all of their names onto the gigantic ck stone monument, she escorted Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue''s group deeper into the cathedral-like building.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized that this cathedral-like building was actually not a church that its job was to look after the dead fox bodies and pray to calm their souls.
All the staffs in this cathedral-like building have jobs to assigning missions to the foxes that came here.
In fact, all the foxes came here not to register like Tang Li Xue''s group but to choose a suitable mission for them and take it. That was why this cathedral-like building was so crowded.
"I almost forgot to remind you all. You all should always wear your bronze badge on your neck! You will know whyter." The blonde beauty warned them halfheartedly with azy tone.
Tang Li Xue and the other obeyed the blonde beauty''s warning and wore their bronze badge on their neck.
Not long after that, the blonde beauty, Mei Lan, and Tang Li Xue''s group arrived at the big courtyard with an underground cave in front of them.
"This ce is called Fox Ancestral Pool. Every new student must undergo their baptism in this pool before they can officially join our home." Mei Lan smiled gently and exined with her sweet voice.
"You all can enter this cave one by one. There is a natural pool in this underground cave and you can take a bath in that pool. That pool will grant you an iplete divine ability! With that iplete divine ability, you can... sigh, forget it... you will know it soon after you take a bath." The blonde beauty continued Mei Lan''s exnation halfheartedly again and yawned after that.
At first, Tang Li Xue and the other were so happy that they could get a new divine ability even if it was an iplete one but their enthusiasm immediately cooled down when they saw the blonde beauty''szy attitude.
''Fortunately, thiszy blonde is not our instructor or our future will definitely bleak!'' Tang Li Xue thought while clicked her tongue.
Mei Lan chuckled while shook her head a bit at the blonde beauty when she saw the blonde beauty''szy attitude.
Everyone in this Foxes Home already knew about this Rong Jie''s improperzy attitude but no one dared to point that out since Rong Jie was one of the top ten experts in this Foxes Home.
Chapter 141 - 141: Incomplete Divine Ability!
Chapter 141 - 141: Iplete Divine Ability!
Well, no one of them wanted to be the guinea pig so no one voluntarily entered the underground cave first.
After all, who knows if some demonic beasts were waiting to ambush them inside this dark underground caveter?
Tang Li Xue and the others already lost their trust to the examiner after they managed to pass thest trial.
But the voluptuous blonde beauty, Rong Jie lost her patience very quickly after only waiting them wavering for a few seconds and kicked the two-tailed yellow thieving fox into the dark underground cave.
"Remember, I will only give you five minutes... no, one minute to take a bath in the Ancestral Fox Pool! More than that and I will punish you!" Rong Jie warned them with a stern tone.
Tang Li Xue and the others nced at the blonde beauty, Rong Jie for a moment but did not dare to say anything.
''One minute?! It''s only enough for us to take a dip rather than take a bath!'' Tang Li Xueined in her mind.
Not long after, someone stepped out from the dark underground cave but it was not the two-tailed yellow thieving fox they knew!
A tall blonde handsome man with golden eyes stepped out from the underground cave.
He has one yellow fox tail behind him and a pair of yellow fox ears on the top of his head. His short blonde hair was damp as if he took a bath just now. He wore a clean set of white clothes like what Instructor Mei Lan wore.
There was also a bronze badge with ''Huang Hao'' name engraved on it tucked his waist. (Huang = Yellow; Hao = Good)
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the other two foxes were stunned silly by the two-tailed yellow thieving fox''s transformation.
Tang Li Xue almost could not believe this tall handsome blonde was the two-tailed yellow thieving fox!
She thought this person was a western who got lost here before she saw the bronze badge on his waist.
''Good Yellow? Pffft... He should name himself Yellow Thief instead!'' Tang Li Xue mocked in her mind.
''But... damn! So this Fox Ancestral Pool can grant us human form?! So I don''t need to reach Spirit Beast level anymore to have my human form back?! That''s super awesome!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering brighter in excitement.
"Don''t dilly dally for too long! Next!" the blonde beauty, Rong Jie shouted impatiently.
The two-tailed white fox decided to enter the underground cave next after the two-tailed yellow thieving fox.
Fifty seconds after that, a stunning beauty wore a white long dress came out.
Her long straight white hair reached her back. Even though her hair was wet but it did not look messy at all. On the contrary, it looked so smooth and silky.
Unfortunately, although she was a stunning beauty but her expression was too cold and her chilling aura isted her from everyone as if she was a beautiful sculpture made from the eternal ice, can only be looked but should never be touched.
Moreover, that frigid stare from her pair of white crystal eyes was enough to make the people she saw felt as if they entered the blizzard field and drove them far away before they could even approach her.
But the furry white fox tail behind her and a pair of white fox ears on the top of her head decreased her cold chilling aura by a lot and made her look a bit cuter instead.
The bronze badge on her waist engraved with Bing Yi''s name on it. (Bing = Ice; Yi = Righteousness, Justice, Decisive, Resolute, Firm)
''Bing Yi? What a good name!'' Tang Li Xue thought when she read the two-tailed white fox name on the bronze badge on her waist.
Tang Li Xue could feel Bing Yi stared back at her full of affection but Yaya immediately hovering in front of Tang Li Xue and stared at Bing Yi full of hostility as if a mother bear that protecting its cub.
Tang Li Xue felt a headache and rubbed her forehead with her paw. She really did not know why this two-tailed white fox held that much affection for her after thest trial.
Tang Li Xue decided to throw it to the back of her mind for now.
She really wanted to enter the underground cave right now after the two-tailed white fox but her confidence started to waver after she saw the two-tailed white fox''s stunning appearance.
What if her human form was hideous? She started to feel afraid... so she decided to be thest one to enter the underground cave.
The next one to enter the underground cave was the two-tailed purple fox.
Tang Li Xue did not need to wait for that long before the two-tailed purple fox walked back out from the dark underground cave.
Different from Bing Yi''s cold beauty, this two-tailed purple fox was a petite beauty.
Her face was not as beautiful as Bing Yi and she was only 150cm tall but her hourss hot figure was more stunning than Bing Yi.
Especially those extraordinarily huge b.r.e.a.s.ts looked like they would burst out of her white dress. No men could probably resist this yellow-haired beauty''s seductive body.
Moreover, her restless eyes and timid attitude would probably burn every man''s passion to dominate her.
At first, Tang Li Xue thought this two-tailed purple fox has a cold personality like Bing Yi too but now she knew that this two-tailed purple fox was only shy and timid.
This two-tailed purple fox also has long bangs to cover her mesmerizing purple eyes and her long purple hair was longer than Bing Yi''s white hair, it reached until her waist.
Like the others, this two-tailed purple fox also has a purple foxtail behind her, a pair of purple fox ears on the top of her head, and wore a white long dress.
Tang Li Xue took a peek at the bronze badge on her waist and read ''Gan Aomiao'' name carved onto it. (Gan = Violet, Purple; Aomiao = Secret)
''Secret Purple? That name is really suitable for her! Hehehe... But it would be more suitable for her to be called Timid Purple.'' Tang Li Xue nodded while in deep thought.
''Yaya, wait for me here, okay? I know... Don''t worry about me. That cave is very safe and I will only enter there for a while.'' Tang Li Xue said to Yaya in her mind. Yaya wanted to follow Tang Li Xue but Tang Li Xue immediately rejected her.
Tang Li Xue inhaled deeply to calm her worry and excitement then stepped into the underground cave.
Although the underground cave was very dark inside but Tang Li Xue could see everything very clearly with her [Night Vision] skill.
After walking for several meters deep into the underground cave, Tang Li Xue saw a clear pool filled with countless glittering colorful lights.
When Tang Li Xue stared at the clear pool, it was as if she was staring at the night skies full of colorful beautiful stars.
Tang Li Xue dipped her right paw to test if the water was safe for her first. Who knows if the water in this pool would act as poison for her?!
Tang Li Xue became more wary and cautious after she faced many enemies and dangerous situations for several years inside thest trial''s illusion. The experience she got there made her a bit more matured than before.
After making sure that the pool water was safe for her and its warm temperature alsofortable for her, she jumped into the pool without any hesitation.
Ding!
[Congrattion! You have gained iplete Divine Ability (Transfiguration: Human Form) from bathing in the Fox Ancestral Pool!]
[Transfiguration: Human Form]: Transform into human form at the cost of stamina. (Beware! Your overall stats would be cut by two-third while you are at the human form.)
Tang Li Xue immediately tried to activate this [Transfiguration: Human Form] and her furry body instantly surrounded by the blinding white light.
A half-secondter, all the fur on her body vanished and shepletely changed into her human form.
She used the pool water as a mirror and looked at her current human form full of excitement.
The girl in the water reflection have the smooth skin as white as snow, her countenance was so stunning with eyebrows like jade feathers. Her lips were pinkish like a cherry blossom.
Her clear topaz blue eyes which seemed to flow like water as the world seemed to lose color before her beauty.
Her long straight glistening silver hair was so smooth and silky, it reached up until her knees.
Tang Li Xue raised her lily-white hand and gently touched her blushing cheek and the girl in the water reflection also followed her delicate movement.
The beautiful girl in the water reflection possessed a stunning beauty, the kind of celestial beauty that would shock one''s heart and move one''s soul, so beautiful that it was unreal, but, at the same time, it also caused one to feel a sense of being unattainable.
Even ''An exceptional beauty that can cause the entire kingdom ruined in a single nce'' description was still underrated her current appearance''s ill.u.s.tration.
However after Tang Li Xue paid attention closer, she realized that her current stunning appearance was actually still unripe.
She was only 120cm-130cm tall now and looked like thirteen years old immature girl. Her slender figure had not yet formed into an hourss figure yet because her current chest was t and only bulging a bit.
But the pair of silver fox ears on her head and silver foxtail behind herbined with her unripe figure increased her cuteness level to maximum.
"...Oh, great... so I am a loli now! I am the only one that doesn''t have a mature appearance!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anger and dissatisfaction.
Moreover, she also realized that this [Transfiguration: Human Form] kept consuming tons of her stamina every second.
She could probably use this [Transfiguration: Human Form] for only three hours and it would probably be even less if she was in the fierce battle.
Let alone she only has a third of her overall stats in this human form!
Tang Li Xue''s judgment on this iplete divine ability: ''Trash tier divine ability without any practical purpose other than disguising as human.''
Tang Li Xue took a peek at the bronze badge on her waist and finally knew this thing''s true function.
This bronze badge actually automatically formed the white clothes for them to wear when they changed form into humans so they would not n.a.k.e.d after they changed their form into humans.
Tang Li Xue shook her head in disappointment and jumped out from the pool then walked back out to underground cave entrance.
Chapter 142 - 142: The Most Beautiful Fox Species!
Chapter 142 - 142: The Most Beautiful Fox Species!
The moment a silver-haired peerless beauty stepped out from the underground cave, all the people... or all the foxes outside to be more precise waspletely dumbfounded.
The surrounding scene and color were blurred and faded away.
Her pair of topaz blue eyes was so clear and pure like untainted clean water and it was glittering like a pair of the most beautiful blue stars.
Her skin was white as snow and on her peach flower-like face, hung a graceful and bashful smile, an especially touching sight.
She was clearly still too young and unripe yet already possessed the breathtaking beauty that would make thousands of flowers and stars looked dull.
It made everyone wonder what she will look like when she grew upter.
Perhaps she would be the kind of woman who was akin to a goddess who had fallen from the heavens into this mundane world, the kind of beauty that would shock everyone''s heart and move everyone''s soul, so beautiful that it was unreal, but, at the same time, it also caused one to feel a sense of being unattainable.
Tang Li Xue felt even more embarrassed and blushed deeper when everyone stunned and kept staring at her for more than one minute so she tried to open her pinkish lips and speak but only a growling voice came out from her.
Tang Li Xue''s growling sound awoke everyone from their daze but they immediately screamed in excitement: "KYAAAAAAAA~~~ SO CUTE!!!"
Their intense fervor frightened Tang Li Xue a bit and she subconsciously took two steps backward.
But the two instructors, Mei Lan and Rong Jie immediately seized both of her right and left arms so she could not escape anymore.
Mei Lan and Rong Jie were chuckling and giggling loudly while started to touch Tang Li Xue''s smooth face and pinched both of her squishy cheeks with their slender fingers.
Tang Li Xue had no other choice other than epting their maltreatment. She currently turned into a pretty doll for both Mei Lan and Rong Jie to y with. They even started to rain their kisses on Tang Li Xue''s stunningly beautiful face again and again.
''Aw... Aw... Aw... Stop! I say stop it! It hurts! Stop pinching my cheeks! Hey, hey, hey! Stop kissing my cheeks! It''s dirty! I don''t want my face to be filled with your saliva! And your teeth are hurting me!''
"What kind of fox species is she? How could she be this beautiful and cute?" Rong Jie asked Mei Lan while happily kissing Tang Li Xue''s soft cheeks, wetting her cheeks with her saliva.
"Her species should be Moon Fox. It''s also known as the most beautiful species. Unfortunately, she is a woman. If she is a man, her admirer here would certainly be countless!" Mei Lan giggled and answered Rong Jie while kept pinched Tang Li Xue''s squishy cheek gently.
It was already general knowledge in this Immortal World that the female fox poption was ten more times than the male fox poption.
The reason for that was because the male foxes matured far slower than female foxes here in Immortal World so many of them died early before they reached maturity and evolved from a savage beast into a demonic beast to gain their divine ability for protecting themselves.
''Moon Fox is the most beautiful species?! But... but I don''t want to be the most beautiful one... I want to be the strongest so I can protect myself and do whatever I want freely!'' Tang Li Xue''s expression turned sour andined in her heart.
Yaya and Bing Yi also wanted to jump in and join the two instructors to ying with Tang Li Xue but the pressures emitting by the two instructors were too strong so they did not dare to do it.
Yaya and Bing Yi could only watch as the two instructors kept harassing Tang Li Xue for more than ten minutes with an envious gaze.
Fortunately, they released Tang Li Xue after they got bored harassing her and turned back to their usual selves, leaving the ravaged Tang Li Xue alone.
"Cough... cough... so all of you already finished your baptism in the Fox Ancestral Pool. Congrattion! From now on, all of you are one of us! But you still have to do onest step before you can go rests in your room so please follow us..." Mei Lan cleared her throat to calm down herself and she quickly restored back to her usual gentle demeanor.
Tang Li Xue staggering for a while in dizziness but she quickly wiped all the saliva on her face in disgust with her long-sleeve after she recovered.
Yaya pounced to Tang Li Xue and hugged her arm affectionately. Tang Li Xue smiled gently and held Yaya''s tiny body with both of her palms and chasing after the Mei Lan and Rong Jie from behind.
Tang Li Xue and the other foxes thought thest step would be the most troublesome but who knows that thest step was actually the easiest one.
They all only need to put their paw... err... it should be their palm now... to another stone monument and listen to the blonde beauty, Rong Jie read their oaths'' uses one by one.
In short, all the oaths were about ''not to betray theirrades'', ''not to divulge out any secrets to any outsider'', ''always striving for to be the best'', ''always obey thew and will never break it'', and so on.
Overall, it was a really boring and time-consuming process but some of the uses managed to catch Tang Li Xue''s attention.
Because she realized there was no use mentioned about Foxes Home at all but many uses mentioned about ''Myriad Foxes Academy'' just like the first one that said ''we must remain loyal to Myriad Foxes Academy as long as we still alive''.
''Hmm... Myriad Foxes Academy? So that is the true name of this ce? Tsk... Even the ''Foxes Home'' name is a fake?! But I must admit it that Myriad Foxes Academy really sounds much cooler.'' Tang Li Xue nodded her head in realization. Her long silky silver-hair was fluttering slightly following her head movement.
Rong Jie closed the thick oath book after she finished reading all of it. Tang Li Xue and the other foxes instantly sighed in relief after it finished.
After that, Rong Jie gave each of them a bronze card then kicked all of them out from the cathedral-like building without exined anything about the bronze card at all.
Mei Lan bid her farewell to Rong Jie and brought all of the foxes including Tang Li Xue to another building.
.....
Tang Li Xue and the other foxes currently looked vertically up to see the extremely tall building in front of them but they still could not see the top end of this tall building that even higher than the clouds on the skies.
''What the hell... What an awesome building?! Is this a seven-star luxurious hotel? No... This should be a thirty-star luxurious hotel!'' Tang Li Xue stared in awe at the tall luxurious building in front of her.
"It''s night already. You can go find your room now. You can see your room number engraved on the bronze card you received from Rong Jie. Just slowly search for your room ording to that number." Instructor Mei Lan exined vaguely.
In the end, all the foxes including Tang Li Xue still confused about how they could use this bronze card but they could only try itter after they find their own room.
"Oh yes, I almost forget to remind you of some regtion here. You can only walk in this Myriad Fox Academy and you cannot fly or you will get a harsh penalty! Also, remember to gather at that building tomorrow morning to register yourself as the new student! Do not bete! I will wait for you all at the entrance." Instructor Mei Lan warned them in the end while pointing at the most magnificent building in the north area.
But Tang Li Xue looked at Instructor Mei Lan in confusion while pointed her index finger at the severalrge discs that flying in the sky above them.
Her confused expression was so cute and adorable that Instructor Mei Lan giggled and pinched her soft cheek again.
"All of those flying discs are the public transportation in this Myriad Fox Academy but you all still don''t have any credit in your bronze card so you all better wake up earlier and walk there. You all will receive some credits as your allowance after you all finish registering as new studentster." Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently and bid her farewell to them all after that.
While the other foxes were still confused about what to do, Tang Li Xue managed to get some gist from Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation.
The bronze badge on their waist can be used as a passport or ID card like in her previous world.
The bronze card in their hands can be used as a credit card or wallet like in her previous world since Instructor Mei Lan said something like ''credit in your bronze card''.
Those flying discs above them were like the public buses in her previous world but they could not use it for now since they did not have any money in their wallet (the bronze card).
There were many foxes in their human form or fox forming in and out from the tall building''s entrance. Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue and the other foxes still could not talk so they could not ask anything from the foxes here.
Of course, Tang Li Xue and the other foxes could use gestures to ask them but Tang Li Xue and her group doubted that all of the foxes here have enough patience to understand their gesturenguage. They could only try to search for their room one by one slowly.
Chapter 143 - 143: Strange Companion Egg!
Chapter 143 - 143: Strange Companion Egg!
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the other foxes in her group entered the tall building timidly looked as if they were the group of peasants that entered the seven-star hotel for the first time.
Fortunately, there were some fox staff on duty at the front desk tonight.
Tang Li Xue and her group only need to show their bronze cards to the front desk''s staff, the staff immediately understand what they wanted, and escort them to their rooms.
Tang Li Xue''s card number was 3211627. It means her room was on the 32nd floor, 11th area, room number 627.
The other foxes in her group have different room numbers but all of them were still on the 32nd floor, 11th area, the same as her.
Tang Li Xue and her group thought they must climb up a long stair to reach the 32nd floor but they were wrong once again.
They could easily go up to the 32nd floor using arge hovering disc. Its function was just like an elevator in Tang Li Xue''s previous world.
Tang Li Xue pursed her pinkish lips a bit when she jumped onto therge hovering disc and thought: ''Isn''t the technology in this Myriad Foxes Academy too high? I started to feel more like in the Sci-Fi World rather than the Immortal World!''
Tang Li Xue observed therge hovering disc under her feet more closely and she could see many runes engraved on its surface.
''So this hovering disc also the result of Inscriptionist Master''s work? How magical! Tsk... This really makes me want to learn more about inscriptions!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in amazement while admiring the artistic runes carved on the hovering disc for a while.
Tang Li Xue and the others followed the building staff and jumped down from therge hovering disc after they arrived at the 32nd floor.
They kept following the building staff from behind and passing several long corridors before they all arrived at the 11th area.
The building staff only escorted them to the front of their respective room and left them there without exining anything on how to use the bronze card or how to open the room''s door.
Tang Li Xue tried to push the room''s door and it opened without any resistance.
She looked into her room full of curiosity and almost cursed out loud when she found out that her room was only as big as a closet.
''What the hell! This is the vition of human rights...err... I mean fox rights! How could they let us live in this closet-sized room! I demand a president suite room for me and Yaya to live in!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in anger andined in her mind.
However, she did not have any other ce to live with Yaya tonight so she could only swallow back her dissatisfaction and entered the closet-sized room.
After Tang Li Xue closed the door, she saw the tiny box behind the door. The box color was ck engraved with manyplicated runes and it looks like a box to insert a card.
She hesitated a bit and decided to insert her bronze card into the ck tiny box.
The moment Tang Li Xue inserted her bronze card into the ck tiny box, her surrounding instantly changed and now she was in front of therge courtyard full of beautiful flowers.
Above her were the beautiful night skies full of countless glittering colorful stars.
In the middle of therge beautiful courtyard, there was a two-story house with ancient Chinese architecture. The house looks simple but neat and nice to look at. It was also quite big, enough for several people to live in it.
Tang Li Xue blinked her eyes and blinked a few times more to confirm the scene in front of her was not a dream or illusion.
Even Yaya that sat quietly on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head waspletely dumbfounded and did not know what happened in front of her eyes.
She looked back at the door in front of therge courtyard and there was a ck tiny box with a bronze card stuck on the door.
Tang Li Xue pulled her bronze card out from the ck tiny box and her surrounding turned back to the dark closet-sized room.
''Holysh*t! Is this illusion? To make us feel better when we live in this dark closet? Or maybe not? Let''s try to enter that house now!'' Tang Li Xue inserted her bronze card into the ck tiny box behind the door and her surrounding scene turned back into the starry skies courtyard.
Tang Li Xue walked carefully while kept her hands in front of her to grope her surroundings. It was not funny if her room was still as big as the closet and she suddenly crashed onto the invisible wall in front of her.
However, Tang Li Xue''s worry did not happen at all! She walked toward the house''s entrance without crashed onto anything. She also easily opened the door and entered the house.
''What the hell is this?! Space magic? Space distortion? Or teleportation? This is too awesome!'' Tang Li Xueughed in excitement and running around in the house to check everything.
The house has everything from kitchen, bathroom, several bedrooms, dining room, living room, even indoor hot spring room.
All the furniture and utensils in the house were reallyplete from kitchen utensils, tableware, several beds in different rooms, etc. They were not too luxurious but neat and clean.
Tang Li Xue was really satisfied with her current room in this tall building... or house to be more precise.
She was already tired before but after she was running around and checking all the rooms one by one, she became even more exhausted.
Tang Li Xue entered the bedroom he chose, she really wanted to sleep so badly but the curiosity she has on all the harvests she got from the trial before exceeding her tiredness so she decided to check it all first.
Tang Li Xue sat on the top of her bed and put the sleepy Yaya beside her. She told Yaya to sleep first before she took out the [Companion Egg] she got when shepleted her quest at the second trial and examined it closely.
This [Companion Egg] has an identical shape with the chicken egg but it has a much bigger size. It was a bit bigger than a football from her previous world.
The [Companion Egg] also has the white color like a snowball and the surface of the egg was very smooth.
''How could I hatch this thing? With hammer maybe? Tsk... I still don''t have any credit to buy any food for it in this Myriad Foxes Academy yet... so maybe I will try to incubate itter after I save enough credits to feed it. Urgh... But I am really curious about what creature will be born from this egg!''
Tang Li Xue thought for a while before deciding to use her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to peek this egg''s description.
[Companion Egg]
[Description: The mysterious egg from the system as the reward from the quest.]
[Bound to host so no one other than the host can hatch it!]
[The way to hatch it: Drip one drop of host blood every day for thirty days.]
[Beware! It needs to consume a lot of energy before it could hatch!]
Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance when she saw the [Companion Egg]''s description while thinking: ''I know I got it this egg from the system as the reward from the quest but the one I want to know is WHAT EGG IS THIS?! Is this only a bigger chicken egg or a true dragon egg?! Sigh... I am really curious now.''
''Oh well... I must drip one drop of my blood every day for one month anyway so it''s better to start now, right? Uwehehe...'' Tang Li Xue giggled and bit her own smooth jade-like index finger a bit.
She dripped a drop of her crimson red blood from her finger onto the [Companion Egg] and the drop of blood immediately disappeared after being absorbed by the egg.
Tang Li Xue observed the big egg in her hands curiously for a few moments but she got boredter and ced it beside her bed after she failed to see any changes on the big egg.
This time Tang Li Xue took out an ancient stone disc from her space pouch.
She got this ancient stone disc from the ck-clothed men''s encampment before.
They used this ancient stone disc as a medium to activate that whatever OP formation that sealed Tang Li Xue and the other foxes'' senses and movement.
Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips with greed shed in the deepest part of her topaz blue eyes while rubbed the ancient stone disc in her hands as if she wiped the dust out from her most precious treasure.
She started to imagine if she could use this ancient stone disc to activate that OP formation again then sealing all of her opponents'' senses and movement.
After she reduced all of her opponents to her punching bags, she could even easily take their lives or snatch all of their treasures and money while they could not do anything to her.
That feeling of absolute domination over the others'' fate at the tip of her hands was really addictive that it made Tang Li Xue drunk in that dream for a while.
Tang Li Xue awake from her daydream after she heard a loud crunching sound beside her.
She was stunned silly as she kept staring at her currently empty hands for a moment.
Tang Li Xue blinked her beautiful topaz blue eyes again and again in disbelief.
Then she looked around a few times to search for the source of the loud crunching sound before she locked her stare at the big chicken egg beside her.
Tang Li Xue shook her head andughed herself while thinking: ''I must be dreaming, right? How can an unhatched egg eat something?! Moreover, it''s not eating porridge or mashed potato but a hard stone disc. Hahaha... Yes, this must be a dream! Definitely a dream!''
Chapter 144 - 144: The Art of Concealment!
Chapter 144 - 144: The Art of Concealment!
However, she immediately remembered a bit painful sensation when she bit her own finger before.
''This is reality? This is impossible, right? Let me try to pinch my cheek a bit first.''
Tang Li Xue felt a stinging pain on her cheek when she used her own fingers to pinch her own cheek and then she instantly realized that she was not in a dream at all!
Tang Li Xue jumped off from her bed in panic and swiftly held the big egg beside her bed.
''Dammit, you stupid gluttonous egg! Quickly give my ancient disc back to me, you as*hole! Vomit all of it back out now!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and fuming in rage while kept shaking the big egg in her hands violently.
But the big egg''s answer to Tang Li Xue''s rude action was only a loud gulping sound.
With this, Tang Li Xue''s dream of using the OP formation from the ancient stone disc to turn all of her enemies into her punching bags had gone forever.
Tang Li Xue currently really wanted to throw away this impudent egg or smashed it as hard as she could into the cold hard floor but if this glutton egg shattered into pieces because of it then she would incur a double loss in the end so Tang Li Xue could only shove all of her anger back into her throat.
Who knows that the big egg started to undergo an earth-shattering change after it swallowed the ancient stone disc now!
Countless mysterious ck runes appeared on the big egg''s pure white surface.
The big egg also started to produce the dark-colored mist out. The dark mist?covered the entire big egg made Tang Li Xue could no longer see any of the mysterious ck runes on the big egg''s surface.
The pressure and aura emitted out from the big egg were so powerful and suffocating that it even made Tang Li Xue hard to breathe. The cold sweat started to pour out from her forehead.
Yaya jumped out from the bed. She woke up in shock and panic because of it.
Yaya wanted to rush toward Tang Li Xue and saved Tang Li Xue from danger but she immediately realized that all of this happened because Tang Li Xue currently experimented about something.
Yaya could only fly as far as she could from the strange big egg. She started to shudder in fear at the farthest corner of Tang Li Xue''s bedroom.
The sinister aura from the big egg waspletely different from what Tang Li Xue had felt before. It was not demonic like what she felt from demonic cultivators at Asura Demon Sect.
The egg''s aura felt so pure since it never did any sin before yet it felt so evil and sinister. The egg also was not cruel at all since the egg itself never killed any creatures before but the aura it emitted was so vicious and brutal.
Tang Li Xue hastily grabbed the big egg and threw it back into her system inventory.
Only then Tang Li Xue could sigh in relief after the immense pressure from the big egg has been lifted from her body.
Tang Li Xue wiped her cold sweat with her long-sleeve while she was still breathing heavily.
She sat back to her bed tiredly and told Yaya that everything was okay now so she could go to sleep again.
Yaya looked back at Tang Li Xue doubtfully but like usual, Yaya always trusted all Tang Li Xue''s words so she fell asleep again almost immediately after she lied down on the softfortable bed beside Tang Li Xue.
''What the hell is wrong with that egg?! Its aura is so damn scary! What kind of terrifying creature will be born from this big egg?! It makes even me feel scared just a moment ago! And it''s not even born yet!'' Tang Li Xue still felt traumatized by the big egg''s overwhelming pressure and wicked aura.
''Sigh... what to do now? Should I keep dripping my blood onto it tomorrow and hatch it soon or should I sealed it forever and let it rot in my system inventory?''
''But I be even more curious about what kind of creature will be born from this egg! But... but its aura feels so evil and vicious! What if it is a demon egg? Would it attacking me or backstabbing meter after it grown-up?''
Like usual, when Tang Li Xue met with aplicated problem that she could not decide or solve right now, she would throw it to the back of her mind and think aboutter.
''I still need to drip my blood onto that egg for another twenty-nine days anyway... I will think about itter when I have three or five more days left!''
Tang Li Xue pulled out thest item she obtained from her space pouch to inspect it.
It was a dpidated book she got from Instructor Mei Lan after she decided to join her Inspector ss!
At first, Tang Li Xue did not expect too much from this Instructor Mei Lan''s gift but who would have thought that this dpidated book was actually the one she needed the most right now!
Tang Li Xue was stunned in shock. She kept flipping the pages of this dpidated book one by one carefully to look for some gist of its contents.
Tang Li Xue was right. The content of this dpidated book was not about martial art technique at all but it was more precious than that, especially for her!
This dpidated book was divided into three parts.
The first part of this book was about [Vanishing Step]. It sounds like a body light technique but it was actually not.
The [Vanishing Step] part taught how the one made their presence undetected and vanished from everyone''s sight regardless the one was currently locked in a battle or not.
Yes, this [Vanishing Step] could make the one using it vanishedpletely from everyone''s sight and slip undetected anywhere without using any stealth skill to turn invisible!
However, Tang Li Xue already has the passive divine ability, [Conceal] and the OP stealth-type divine ability, [Ethereal Form] so she did not really need to learn this [Vanishing Step].
The second part of this book was about [Erasing Aura].
All experts or masters that already fought in several thousands of battles in any kind of dangerous situation would develop a keen sense to detect even the slightest intent or aura that approach them. This was the reason why the fatty uncle and Instructor Mei Lan could detect Tang Li Xue while she was still in her [Ethereal Form].
However, when one mastered this [Erasing Aura] part then one could erase all their intent, will, and aura! Made the one using it identical to pebble or stone on the street. One would be undetectable even when one stood right behind the experts or masters with keen sense detection.
This [Erasing Aura] part was what Tang Li Xue needed the most to master!
It would make herpletely undetectable while she was in her [Ethereal Form]!
Thest part of this book was even crazier. It was called [One with Nature].
When one mastered it, they could blend into one with nature. One could walk everywhere without being hindered and no one would notice them at all.
However, thisst part was too profound and impossible for the current Tang Li Xue to master it so she could only put it aside for now.
''Woah... I never have thought that the content of this shabby book is so awesome! What a treasure! It looks like I should thank Instructor Lan again tomorrow...'' Tang Li Xue closed the dpidated book in her hands and sat for a while to calm down her shock and excitement.
Of course, Tang Li Xue still could not understand even a single thing about the content of this dpidated book like usual.
She only got some gist about the content from its introduction page.
However, she did not worry at all since she still has her system!
Tang Li Xue sent her thought to her system that she wanted to learn the content in this book and tapped the surface of the dpidated book gently.
Ding!
[Do you want toprehend The Art of Concealment with cost 120 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
''The Art of Concealment? Sounds cool! But 120 Deity Coins are a bit expensive since even my [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] cost 210 Deity Coins before. Oh, well... hopefully, I can quickly master it so I am not spending these Deity Coins in vain! YES!''
A massive amount of information from the dpidated book was instantly transferred by the system into her mind.
Tang Li Xue felt an intense splitting headache on her head when the system injected the massive information into her brain.
Theprehending process onlysts for a few moments but Tang Li Xue herself felt that it was taking a long time.
Moreover, she was already so exhausted today so she fell asleep on her bed beside Yaya without noticing it after the pain has subsided.
After she fell asleep, her [Transfiguration: Human Form] also automatically canceled and she turned back into her silver moon fox form.
.....
...
.
The next morning, the sunlight slipped into Tang Li Xue''s bedroom through the tiny gap between windows.
Tang Li Xue still fast asleep so tightly but Yaya already woke up earlier and now Yaya was still trying to wake up Tang Li Xue since she remembered that they should gather at the north building''s entrance early today.
Currently, Yaya was still busily shaking Tang Li Xue''s furry body while kept making ''Yayayaya~~'' cute voices as loud as she could to wake up Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her eyes. She immediately turned sober and jumped down from her bed.
''Oh, crap! We are almostte! Let''s go, Yaya!''
Tang Li Xue brought Yaya to the bathroom and took a quick bath with Yaya then she activated her [Transfiguration: Human Form] again and transformed into her beautiful human form before went out from her house.
Tang Li Xue took her bronze card out from the ck tiny box behind the door in front of her courtyard and her surrounding courtyard scene instantly faded away. It turned back into a dark closet-sized room.
She threw her bronze card into her space pouch and pushed open the door in front of her.
When she went out of her room, she met with Bing Yi that still waiting for her in front of the door patiently.
Bing Yi''s cold chilling expression cracked as she smiled beautifully like a blooming orchid the moment she saw Tang Li Xue.
However, when Bing Yi wanted to approach and greet Tang Li Xue, someone already did it first before her.
The handsome man with long ck silky hair came approaching Tang Li Xue with a silly gentle smile on his delicate face but his ck-furred fox tail and his pair of ck fox ears on his head made him looked somewhat cuter.
He wore a set of white clothes like Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi too. His deep green eyes also kept focusing on Tang Li Xue''s alone since the very start.
Tang Li Xue must admit it that among all the handsome male foxes in their human form she saw after she entered this Myriad Foxes Academy yesterday, this one in front of her eyes right now was the most handsome.
Even Tang Li Xue has currently mesmerized a bit by his super handsome appearance.
But Tang Li Xue was really sure that she never saw this man or get in contact with him before, after she entered this Myriad Foxes Academy yesterday.
When Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Bing Yi still felt doubtful with this handsome man''s identity in front of them, that man rushed to Tang Li Xue and embraced her petite slender body out of nowhere.
This ck-haired man''s sudden action caught Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Bing Yipletely off guard!
Tang Li Xue: ''?!''
Bing Yi: ''!!!''
Yaya: ''!!!''
Bing Yi and Yaya''s expression turned cold as the temperature in the entire corridor kept dropping in an instant.
Ice and wind started to brewing be a storm blizzard that covered the entire 11th area in thick frost.
Chapter 145 - 145: Battle In front Of the Door!
Chapter 145 - 145: Battle In front Of the Door!
Tang Li Xuepletely dumbfounded when the ck-haired man embraced her so suddenly but she awoke from her daze after a few moments and pushed him away.
The ck-haired man took several steps back after Tang Li Xue pushed him and looked at Tang Li Xue quizzically.
''What''s wrong with this dude?! Tsk... Is he really a true lolicon who is eyeing for my body?!'' Tang Li Xue stared at the ck-haired man fiercely full of vignce and disgust as if she was looking at a pervert.
However, Yaya and Bing Yi were not as reasonable as Tang Li Xue, both of them charged toward the ck-haired man immediately after Tang Li Xue pushed him away.
Yaya swung her tiny arm down and several sharp [Wind des] flew down swiftly from above the ck-haired man.
The ck-haired man agilely tilted his body a few times to dodge all of the Yaya''s sharp [Wind des] easily.
His leisure yet precise movements made Tang Li Xue realized that this ck-haired man was actually very strong.
Bing Yi did not let the ck-haired man had any chance to breathe, she dashed toward him and activated her freezing power in an instant!
The frightening freezing aura burst out from her slender well-proportioned body!
The ck-haired man only took a few steps to his left side and Bing Yi''s freezing aura stopped a few centimeters from his feet.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper when she saw that. This ck-haired man actually managed to step out from Bing Yi''s freezing aura range with only a few steps so urately!
''Fortunately, this pervert... cough... I mean this handsome man doesn''t have any intention to retaliate or hurt us. If not, I doubt we can win even if the three of us join hands to fight him!''
Tang Li Xue decided not to join attacking the ck-haired man with Yaya and Bing Yi for now. She chose to observe him for a bit longer and she would stop the battleter since she did not feel any bad intention from him.
In fact, the handsome man started to panic after Yaya, and Bing Yi kept attacking him together. He even nced at Tang Li Xue with his pitiful teary green eyes like asking for her mercy.
Tang Li Xue raised her eyebrows. Somehow she began to feel this handsome ck-haired man''s teary green eyes looked really familiar to her but she still could not remember where she saw it before.
''I swear I really never meet with someone like him in this Myriad Foxes Academy yesterday! In fact, I only meet with the three foxes that pass thest trial, Instructor Mei Lan, and that Rong Jie yesterday! I swear I never meet anyone besides them!'' Tang Li Xue pursed her lips and rubbed her forehead with her fingers while trying to remember.
Yaya gathered all of her strength while Bing Yi kept the ck-haired man busy for a few seconds. She was ready to use her strongest move, the [Cyclone sh]!
However, before she could fire it towards the ck-haired man...
FWOOOOOSSSHHH~~!!!
The immense pressure descended down pressed them all down, locking all of them in the ce where they stood, and prevent them from moving.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, Bing Yi, and the ck-haired man were even forced to drop down on their knee because of that immense pressure.
"It''s forbidden to fight in the Myriad Foxes Academy! This is your first and yourst warning! If you want to fight, you all can go to Fighting Arena in the west area. You can fight to your content there!" A majestic yet stern voice resounded in their mind.
After the voice disappeared, the pressure on their body had also been lifted and they could move their body again like usual.
Tang Li Xue and the other sighed in relief after they could move their body and they did not dare to start the fight again.
Yaya ran back to Tang Li Xue and hugged her arm apologetically. Tang Li Xue smiled gently and patted Yaya''s tiny head while saying it was not her fault through the connection in their mind.
Bing Yi also approached Tang Li Xue with her head lowered as if she was apologizing to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue also nodded and smiled gently to Bing Yi but because of their height difference, Tang Li Xue must raise her hand as high as she could to pat Bing Yi''s head a few times.
Yaya and Bing Yi showed their blissful and satisfied expression that made Tang Li Xue giggled at their behavior.
Then the ck-haired handsome man also approached Tang Li Xue and tried to imitate Bing Yi. He lowered his head apologetically to Tang Li Xue too only to meet with Tang Li Xue''s cold disdainful stare.
The ck-haired handsome man was bursting into tears when he saw Tang Li Xue''s alienating re toward him.
Unconsciously, he turned back into his fox form and ran away from Tang Li Xue.
His true form was a ck colored two-tailed fox that was slightly bigger than Tang Li Xue''s fox form.
Only now that Tang Li Xue recognized this two-tailed ck fox... He was actually Tang Li Xue''s travelingpanion before she entered this ce, the Fox Sith!
Tang Li Xue: ''.....''
Now Tang Li Xue started to feel really guilty for treating him like a stranger.
''Wait a minute! This is certainly not my fault, okay?! He always wears a red scarf and straw hat before so how could I recognize him properly now! Hum... That''s right! So it''s all his own fault then!'' Tang Li Xue decided to push all of her faults back to the Fox Sith.
However, Tang Li Xue recalled that Instructor Mei Lan said something like the red-haired instructor only tried to tempt her to join the Executor ss because of her boyfriend or something.
''Three elite foxes that entered here without any need to pass any trials should be able to join the Elite ss directly like what Instructor Mei Lan exined to us before.'' Tang Li Xue stood there silently for a moment and think.
Yaya and Bing Yi wanted to remind Tang Li Xue that they would bete if they dilly dally for too long here but they decided to wait for her patiently in the end since Tang Li Xue seems like thinking about something important.
''So the reason for that red-haired instructor tried to tempt me to join her Executor ss before is because of that Fox Sith will also decide to join whatever ss I am in?'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes got brighter after she connected all the clues together.
'' Tsk... So does it mean I got this [Art of Concealment] from Instructor Mei Lan before because of him? Sigh... Now I am starting to feel even more guilty! I should apologize to him personallyter when I meet with him again...'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue while tapped her forehead with her slender finger in guilt.
While Tang Li Xue was thinking deeply, the two-tailed yellow thieving fox, Huang Hao, and the two-tailed purple fox, Gan Aomiao hastily came out from their room in their human form.
They stared strangely at Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi for a moment before they were sprinting as fast as they could toward the hovering disc so they could go out from this tall building and heading to the majestic building in the north area.
''Eh? Where are they go... Oh, crap! I almost forget about it! We will bete! Let''s go, Yaya!'' Tang Li Xue followed Huang Hao and Gan Aomiao hastily from behind. She dashed swiftly to the hovering disc too with Bing Yi.
After riding on the hovering disc and descended from the 32nd floor back to the 1st floor, Tang Li Xue and her group jumped down from it then they hurriedly dashed out from their luxurious tall hotel.
Tang Li Xue and her group only had their iplete [Transfiguration: Human Form] divine ability yesterday so they were still not quite familiar with their human form.
They stumbled many times when they were sprinting towards the most magnificent building in the north area and almost nting their face onto the ground a few times. Fortunately, all of them have rich battle experience and quick reflex so that did not happen... only almost happen.
They even crashed into a few passersby on their way and received a few curses from them as a gift.
Again... fortunately, all of those passersby have a great temper if not they would already start to make themotion out of it and ask forpensation from Tang Li Xue and her group. This was something like all the scammers in Tang Li Xue''s previous world would do to extort their targets.
In the end, all of them including Tang Li Xue decided to cancel their [Transfiguration: Human Form] and return to their fox form.
Now their speed instantly exploded and they could dash three times faster towards the ce where they were heading to without stumbling around or crashing onto others! The reason was that they could use their full speed now rather than a third of their overall stats in their human form before.
All of them including Tang Li Xue only realized now that this Myriad Foxes Academy was actually really vast than they imagined it before.
The majestic building in the north area seemed so near for them but who knows they would need to run for more than twenty minutes with their full speed to reach there.
Moreover, they still needed to search around to find where the building entrance really was after they arrived at that magnificent building so they were fated to bete today since the very start.
Tang Li Xue and the others looked haggard and exhausted the moment they arrived in front of Instructor Mei Lan.
"All of you arete. When I said you all have toe here early, it means you all must arrive earlier than me! Minus thirty credits for you all!" Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently like always but her tone was clearly not gentle at all as she scolded all of them harshly.
Tang Li Xue and the others were too exhausted to care about Instructor Mei Lan''s words now so they simply let her words enter from their right ear and came out from their left ear.
Instructor Mei Lan closed her mouth with her long-sleeve and giggled silently.
If it were the sophomore students that heard her words, they would instantly cry and beg for her to lighten their punishment but all of these new students did not react at all when they heard it.
This was why she really liked to bully the new students the most and gave them a harsh punishment. It was because she really loved the funny faces they would make once they found out how valuable those credits would beter.
Chapter 146 - 146: First Time Attending the Class!
Chapter 146 - 146: First Time Attending the ss!
Instructor Mei Lan brought Tang Li Xue and the others into the magnificent building.
This magnificent building looked more like a gigantdmark from outside since the architecture identical with the ancient pce but more massive and all the materials used to build it also far more luxurious.
In front of the entrance, there was a gargantuan statue of the nine-tailed fox with pale azure color made from an unknown material. The gargantuan statue seems so real and lifelike that Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the others kept staring at it for a few minutes in shock and awe.
They could even faintly felt the terrifying aura and immense pressure emitted out from the gargantuan statue of the nine-tailed fox that made their heart trembling slightly in fear and reverence.
Tang Li Xue and the others awoke from their daze after Instructor Mei Lan called them and they quickly followed after Instructor Mei Lan from behind.
Even the front hall of this building was so big that it would have no problem amodating more than a thousand people here. Although there were quite many foxes in their human form that came in and out from this front hall but it still felt so empty inside it.
Tang Li Xue could only click her tongue while mumbled in her heart: ''What a waste of building material and space!''
Not long after they followed Instructor Mei Lan, They arrived at the front desk and Instructor Mei Lan talked with the front desk staff for a while before asking Tang Li Xue and the others to give their bronze card and bronze badge to the front desk staff.
The front desk staff took their bronze card and bronze badge then put both of them on the top of the ck stone that looked like a giant ink grinder.
Tang Li Xue stared at the ck stone full of curiosity and realized that the bronze card and bronze badge shone with a dim brown-colored light.
It only took a few moments for them to finished registering their identity and the front desk staff gave the bronze card and bronze badge back to each of them.
"All of you are supposed to receive fifty credits today as your monthly allowance this month but I will deduct thirty credits from each of you as your punishment for beingte today." Instructor Mei Lan shook her white jade badge and several white-colored dim lights as big as fireflies flew out from it.
Each of the white-colored dim light from Instructor Mei Lan''s white jade badge entered Tang Li Xue and the others'' bronze card.
Tang Li Xue held her bronze card with both of her furry paws and she could see ''twenty'' number appeared at the surface of her bronze card.
''So I currently only have 20 credits? It sounds so little! And this ruthless instructor even took 60% out of 50 credits from us as our punishment?! Isn''t it too cruel?!'' Tang Li Xue stared at Instructor Mei Lan in disbelief but she was helpless to do anything.
Bing Yi, Huang Hao, and Gan Aomiao looked at the Instructor Mei Lan pitifully with a teary pair of eyes in their fox form but Instructor Mei Lan only giggled while kept looking at their sad expression in blissful.
Never be fooled by the gentle appearance of the beautiful ck-haired girl, Mei Lan. Any sophomore students or other instructors would know that this Instructor Mei Lan was an extremely sadistic instructor among all.
The more you put pitiful, begging, and sad expression in front of her, the more she would torture you!
This was also why the mortality rate of her students was the highest among all the instructors and the real reason why the red-haired instructor, Zhiruo felt pity for all of Mei Lan''s students this year.
"Oh yes, I almost forgot to remind you all. When you attend any sster, you must present in your human form! Remember this well or you will get punished againter!" Instructor Mei Lan ignored Tang Li Xue and the others pitiful expression and reminded them.
''In human form? But... why? Aren''t all beasts hate humans? Then why we must use our human form so often? It''s as if they expect us to learn to be like a human?! This is clearly strange, right?!'' There were many questions in Tang Li Xue''s mind but she could only stare at Instructor Mei Lan quizzically.
"You all don''t have to feel so confused. All of you will stay here for a long time anyway and all of you can learn everything step by step so there is no need for you all to be in a hurry to understand everything. All of your questions would be answered eventually sooner orter." Instructor Mei Lan exined to them patiently.
Tang Li Xue and the other decided to activate their [Transfiguration: Human Form] again and transformed into their human form.
Instructor Mei Lan did not wait for them toplete their transformation, she led them all to enter deeper into the pce-like building and they followed her from behind as she was walked on the long corridor.
"All the sses here are divided into two: Private ss and Mixed ss. Private ss means I as your Instructor will teach you personally in the ss. While Mixed ss means all of you need to attend the lesson from other instructors." Instructor Mei Lan''s expression turned solemn this time and she exined it with a stern tone.
Instructor Mei Lan stopped her step and turned around her slender body facing Tang Li Xue and the other with a serious expression.
"In Mixed ss, you will attend the ss with many students under the tutge of the other instructors. While the fierce rivalry between Executor ss and our Inspector ss ismon knowledge here so you understand what I mean, right?" Instructor Mei Lan stared at them with a serious expression.
This was the first time for Tang Li Xue and the others to see their gentle Instructor Mei Lan warned them seriously like this.
''I understand. So we should try our best to restrain ourselves and ignore them all. It would be bad if we fall for their provocation and make amotion in front of the other instructors. It will ruin our reputation and Instructor Mei Lan''s reputation in front of the other instructors.'' Tang Li Xue nodded her head in understanding.
"It''s good if you all understand. I want you all to p their smug face each time they provoke you and teach them some harsh lessons if they dare to insult our Inspector ss name. You can even cripple some of their limbs if they dare to speak badly about me. I will surely reward all of you generously every time you do all of that." Instructor Mei Lan smiled full of gentleness and her sweet voice was really intoxicating but all of her words were far from gentle.
Tang Li Xue: ''.....''
Yaya: ''....''
The other foxes: ''.....''
"Hm... But it will take too long for you guys to wait for them to provoke you all first so I give all of you permission to provoke them first then beat them all half to death. I will double your reward if you provoke them first before you beat them all half to death. How about that? I am so generous to all of you, right?" Instructor Mei Lan smiled even wider in excitement.
The gentle aura oozing out from Mei Lan right now did not lose to the Goddess of Mercy, Guanyin but all of her words were enough to make everyone that heard it shudder in terror.
Every instructor in this Myriad Foxes Academy including the red-haired instructor, Zhiruo already knew that this Mei Lan was like this. She was not the incarnation of the Goddess of Mercy but the true avatar of the Goddess of Chaos.
Ding!
[Quest: (Tyrannical) Follow your instructor''s teaching and teach the students from the Executor ss a lesson they will never forget in their entire life!]
[Difficulty: Hard]
[Reward: Level +3(+1), Stat Point+45(+11), Skill Point+9(+2), 150(+38) Deity Coins]
Tang Li Xue almost fainted from the shock and frustration when she read the new quest log from her system.
''SYSTEM?! Why? Why? Why the hell are you listening to this psycho instructor rather than my words? When I asking you for the quest like hunting some beasts you did not respond to me at all and now you immediately respond to her words without even asking for my approval!'' Tang Li Xue really wanted to cry so badly right now but there were no tears came out.
"But remember if you all lose to those students from Executor ss, I will punish you all by deducting the triple amount of that reward. So be really careful and be sure to not lose!" Instructor Mei Lan dropped another big surprise for Tang Li Xue and her group.
Now not only Tang Li Xue alone but all of the foxes in her group wanted to cry so badly after they heard Instructor Mei Lan''sst warning.
Mei Lan turned her slender body again and led in front of them again with a gentle smile full of excitement stered on her face as if she could not wait for her students to obey her words and make some troubles to the students from Executor ss.
Tang Li Xue and the other foxes followed behind Mei Lan again dispiritedly. They could already see that their future did not look bright at all with a troublemaker instructor like Mei Lan as their teacher.
After a few minutes of walking and passing through several long corridors with countless doors to the other ssroom, they finally arrived at their own ssroom.
There were already two other foxes inside the ssroom that already waited for Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue''s group to arrive.
The first one was a stunning girl with long golden hair and she also has a pair of glittering golden eyes. When the golden-haired girl saw Tang Li Xue and her group, she smiled at them, and put her hands together then bowed a bit to them politely.
Tang Li Xue could see the brilliant golden light enveloping this golden-haired girl''s figure from behind.
Tang Li Xue could also faintly hear the Buddhist Hymn whispered into her mind every time she looked at this beautiful golden-haired girl.
Instructor Mei Lan was a gentle beauty that each of her movements exuded elegance, Bing Yi was a cold beauty that enticed any males reverence and possessive nature, Gan Aomiao was a timid beauty that made all the males wanted to protect her from all harm.
Then this golden-haired girl was an innocent beauty that kept radiating the blinding holy aura capable of purifying all earthly desire of everyone who saw her.
The second one was of course Tang Li Xue''s old friend, the poor forgotten Fox Sith.
He already turned back into his human form now and kept staring at Tang Li Xue after she entered their ssroom with wronged expression.
Fox Sith''s human form was really handsome. It could be said he fulfilled all the criteria to be called ''ikemen*''. Unfortunately, his childish behavior every time he appeared in front of Tang Li Xue ruined all of it.
"Okay, you all can sit now! I will introduce these two to you all." Instructor Mei Lan pped her hands and ordered all of them to sit on their own seat.
Their ssroom was really huge and there were hundreds of empty seats there while there were only six of them so they could choose any seat they want.
Instructor Mei Lan only introduced the two foxes briefly and said if they wanted to know more they could ask those two personally after the ss.
The golden-haired girl named Li Jing (Li the same as Li in Li Xue: Beautiful; Jing: Quiet, gentle, clear, Spirit).
While the Fox Sith named himself Hei Yinghao (Hei the same as Hei in Xiao Hei: ck; Yinghao = Hero, Outstanding person).
''ck Hero, huh... What a narcissistic guy!'' Tang Li Xue smiled gently while taking a peek on the Fox Sith from the corner of her eyes.
For some reason, Tang Li Xue felt a lot closer to the Fox Sith now after she heard ''Hei'' in his name.
Hei Yinghao and Li Jing were supposed to join Elite ss directly but for some reason, they refused it and decided to join their Inspector ss in the end.
"All right kids! Today I will teach you all how to speak first so you all canmunicate with everyone in Myriad Foxes Academy easier." Instructor Mei Lan sat on the teacher seat in front of them all. She tapped the teacher''s desk with her slender finger and exined calmly.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes started to glitter brightly in excitement. She already tried to speak so many times yesterday but no matter what she did, she still could not utter a single word correctly at all.
*(Ikemen: Reference good looking men featured in Japanese pop culture, typically characterized as being sharply dressed individuals with nted, intelligent eyes, husky voices, slender wrists and fingers, a manly build, an unruffled appearance, pale skin, and clean smelling with an air of mystery around them.)
Chapter 147 - 147: Crushing Defeat!
Chapter 147 - 147: Crushing Defeat!
Instructor Mei Lan gave each of them a jade slip and told them to close their eyes then touched that jade slip onto their forehead.
The information in the jade slip appeared in their mind instantly when it touched their forehead.
''This... This is [Telepathy] technique! I thought [Telepathy] is some kind of skill you get naturally but it''s actually a technique that everyone could learn! But why that cheap fake dragon did not teach me?'' Tang Li Xue grumbled at the fake dragon inside her heart.
However, she immediately remembered the oath thingy with Rong Jie said something like ''They could not teach everything they learned at Myriad Foxes Academy without permission'' and thought that fake dragon should be also under this kind of oath.
That was why it did not dare to teach its technique to Tang Li Xue and could only suggest Tang Li Xue to enter this Myriad Foxes Academy by herself and learned all of it here.
"We are still foxes after all. Transfiguration only makes us looks like a human but it doesn''t mean we be a human. We don''t have a vocal-cord like them so we cannot talk like a human but we can use this [Telepathy] to cover it. Don''t forget to move your lips every time you use [Telepathy] and synchronize your lips movement so it will look as if you are really speaking with your mouth." Instructor Mei Lan reminded them.
''Tsk... So we only pretend to talk?! But to use this [Telepathy] as a substitute for our voices is really amazing! What a smart way!'' Tang Li Xue nodded in amazement.
Like usual Tang Li Xue did not understand any of this gibberish method like ''circte the energy of heaven and earth in our body then connect it directly into our mind'' and it was not like she could use cable or wire as a substitute so she simply sent her thought to her system and...
Ding!
[Do you want toprehend Telepathy with cost 10 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
''Woah, it''s so cheap! Only 10 Deity Coins! Hehehe... Yes!'' Tang Li Xue covered her pinkish lips and giggled.
As if the fog inside her mind has been cleared, Tang Li Xue could understand all of the words in this [Telepathy] jade slip from the start to finish easily.
Ding!
[You have gained skill (Telepathy)]
[Telepathy (Lv1) and Enhanced Sense of Taste (Lv5) can bebined into Divine Ability [Converse] with cost 6 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''Oh? It can bebined with [Enhanced Sense of Taste]? But [Converse] sounds useless... It seems like a divine ability tomunicate with other people or... other beings. Okay, it sounds useful but I like that [Five Senses Enhancement] divine ability more! So... Nope.'' Tang Li Xue rejected the idea tobine it instantly.
Instructor Mei Lan started to guide the other foxes step by step and mentioned a few crucial things about this [Telepathy] for them to remember andprehend slowly.
Tang Li Xue did not bother about it as she opened her pink lips and tried to use her [Telepathy] at the same time: "Test... Test... one, two, three, four, five..."
A childish but sweet voice entered everyone''s mind and they looked around for a while before their gaze fell to Tang Li Xue.
"That voice... is that you Tang Li Xue? Try to speak once more to me." Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes brightened as she stared at Tang Li Xue.
"It''s me, Instructor Mei Lan! I... I can speak now! Hehe..." Tang Li Xue tried it again andughed proudly after that.
"Good! You have a really highprehension ability! Reward one hundred credits!" Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently and took out her white jade badge and a tiny white light shot out towards Tang Li Xue''s bronze badge.
The number shown in Tang Li Xue''s bronze badge increased from twenty to one hundred and twenty now!
Tang Li Xue smiled brightly when she saw that and quickly thanked Instructor Mei Lan for the reward.
Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue to help her teach the other foxes about this [Telepathy]. All of these [Umon] grade foxes really smart and they already could use this [Telepathy] after a few hours albeit still very clumsy.
Unknowingly their lesson for today has ended and Instructor Mei Lan stood in front of their ss again.
"Okay kids, today''s lesson is over! All of you can take this outer robe and remember that you must always wear it when you enter this education building." Instructor Mei Lan gave one azure blue outer robe to each of them.
"The one wearing the blue robe is Inspector ss student. The one wearing the crimson-red robe is Executor ss student. While the one wearing the ck robe is an Elite ss student so never provoke the ck-robed one but you can... no, you must provoke the one wearing the red robe!" Instructor Mei Lan chuckled softly as she told them.
Tang Li Xue and the others dumbfounded for a moment when they tried to wear their azure blue outer robe after they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
"Also... after you wear that robe, I want all of you to divide into two groups. Three foxes each group." Instructor Mei Lan said to them.
It did not take them long to form two groups.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao were in one group. Whereas Li Jing, Gan Aomiao, and Huang Hao were in another group.
Tang Li Xue felt really guilty to Fox Sith since she forgot about himpletely when he helped her gain her [Art of Concealment] so she invited him into her team personally.
The Fox Sith, Hei Yinghao was so happy when Tang Li Xue called him to join her group.
He was really moved to tears and ran towards Tang Li Xue wanted to hug her again but he immediately blocked by Bing Yi and Yaya, their face was so cold as if they would really tear him to pieces if he dares to take one step closer.
"Not a bad teamposition. Let''s do sparring to see what you all are capable of!" Instructor Mei Lan waved her white slender hand and an invisible cover enveloped them all so they would not ruin the ssroom when sparring.
"Little one,e here. You cannot join their sparring this time. Just let your master fight alone this time." Instructor Mei Lan waved her palm to Yaya.
Yaya looked at Tang Li Xue to ask her approval and Tang Li Xue nodded to Yaya.
Yaya pouted. She moved away from Tang Li Xue full of unwillingness and hovering beside Instructor Mei Lan.
"Are all of you ready? Begin!" Instructor Mei Lan gave her signal.
At first, all of them were still too shocked with Instructor Mei Lan''s suddenmand but they immediately sobered up and charged towards each other.
Tang Li Xue wanted to activate her [Ethereal Form] and ambushed her foe from behind but before she could do that Gan Aomiao''s mind control divine ability already locked onto her.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone with purple light and her body could no longer move. She even gradually lost control of her own body.
''Dammit! I... I cannot move! I started losing control of my own body!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and tried to shake her body to break free from Gan Aomiao''s control but she utterly failed, she could not even move a single finger of her now.
Tang Li Xue even started to swing her fist around targeting her own teammate under Gan Aomiao''s control.
The Fox Sith, Hei Yinghao dashed with his lightning speed to knock out Gan Aomiao as fast as he can so he could release Tang Li Xue from the mind control ability swiftly.
However, he was blocked by Li Jing before he could even get close to Gan Aomiao.
"Amitabha! I am really sorry Almsgiver Hei but you cannot move further from here." Li Jing put her hands together and said to Hei Yinghao.
Li Jing was truly worthy of being a genius that almost entered the Elite ss. She was the second one to perfectly mastered the [Telepathy] skill after Tang Li Xue without any aid like system.
The reason Li Jing refused to enter Elite ss was that she refused to kill any living being in any situation.
Li Jing''s species was Avalokitesvara Companion Fox (Two-Tailed). As a fox with a close rtionship with Buddism, how could he kill wantonly like the other foxes?
But although she could not kill any living creature, it did not mean she could not immobilize them!
In fact, Li Jing''s divine ability was specialized to seal her opponent''s mind and body!
Li Jing started to chanting some Buddhist Mantras the moment the Fox Sith, Hei Yinghao ignored her and passed through swiftly from her left side to targeting Gan Aomiao.
Suddenly, Hei Yinghao''s body got heavier and heavier as if his body weight increased by hundreds of times.
He gritted his teeth and tried his best to drag his heavy body but the more Li Jing chanting her Buddhist Mantras, the heavier his body had be.
After a few seconds, he could no longer support his own body weight and fell forward. He could no longer stand up as if there was a gigantic mountain that was pressing down on the top of his body.
The thief fox, Huang Hao activated his [Shadow Clones] divine ability, and his handsome figure divided into ten!
Huang Hao immediately joined the controlled Tang Li Xue that kept attacking Bing Yi with her fist and surrounded Bing Yi along with his nine shadow clones.
Actually, Bing Yi could activate her freezing domain to destroy all Huang Hao''s shadow clones and even froze his real body but Tang Li Xue was so close with her right now and if she activated her freezing domain now, it would also hurt Tang Li Xue.
Gan Aomiao could control many huge birds and giant crocodiles at once in the first trials and make them ughter each other before so why she could not do the same now?! Her purple eyes shone once again as she tried to control Bing Yi too this time!
Bing Yi could feel her mind turned fuzzy and her body was also getting harder to move as she kept dodging Tang Li Xue and Huang Hao relentless attacks.
"That''s enough! Li Jing''s team is the winner!" Instructor Mei Lan shook her head in disappointment.
Li Jing stopped chanting her Buddhist Mantras and Hei Yinghao could move his body again like usual.
Gan Aomiao also stopped casting her mind control divine ability so Tang Li Xue regained back the control of her body and Huang Hao also stopped his attack.
"Li Jing''s team plus thirty credits as the reward! Tang Li Xue''s team minus thirty credits as punishment!" Instructor Mei Lan dered as she raised her white jade badge.
The white light flew away from Tang Li Xue''s team bronze badge and entered the Li Jing''s team bronze badge.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in anger to useless herself. The frustration and disappointment flooded her heart.
There was no need for anyone to tell her. This sparring ended in utterly crushing defeat because of her!
But she also kept reminding herself: ''Be patient! Less than ten days! I only need less than ten days to evolve into [Umon] grade like them! I will surely be more than twice stronger after I evolveter!''
The reason why Tang Li Xue could fell under Gan Aomiao''s mind control divine ability easily was that her soul or spirit was the weakest one among everyone here.
She could cover her weakness in strength and agility with her human cultivation in her Dantian that granted her a huge boost in her stats but her spirit was still at that [Umon] grade level after all.
Her current spirit strength was far too weak!
Chapter 148 - 148: We Are Broke!
Chapter 148 - 148: We Are Broke!
Tang Li Xue also realized that after her registration in this education building, her bronze badge and her bronze card were connected.
There were still ny credits left in Tang Li Xue''s bronze card after the white light flew away from her bronze badge and entered the Li Jing''s team bronze badge.
Tang Li Xue knew that these credits were the currency in the Myriad Foxes Academy but the others did not know about it yet.
After Instructor Mei Lan dismissed the ss, Tang Li Xue and the other went back into their tall residential building.
They all were starving so they decided to look for the ce to eat in that residential building and they managed to find a big restaurant on the first floor.
Among them all, only Tang Li Xue and Li Jing could use their [Telepathy] skill proficiently so the two of them were like the leader in their respective team right now.
But Tang Li Xue was instantly shocked when she opened the menu book on their table.
South Turtle Soup: 5 Credits
Firebird Stew: 7 Credits
Two-Headed Python Meatball: 9 Credits
Winged Tiger Ribs with Barbeque Sauce: 15 Credits
Sweet and Sour Three Horned Boar: 17 Credits
...
Tang Li Xue and her group gasped in shock as they stared at the foods in the menu book one by one.
''Very expensive! Is this a scam or something?!'' Tang Li Xue screamed in her mind. Tang Li Xue has the most credits among them all and even she felt these foods were very expensive.
She herself was a big glutton so she would need at least three servings to fill her stomach.
She must feed the other big glutton, Yaya too! Yaya would at least need five to six servings to fill her stomach but she would need at least twelve servings to make her barely felt full.
Moreover, Bing Yi has minus ten credits because their team lost to Li Jing''s team. Tang Li Xue felt really guilty about it since her team lost because of her so she decided to treat her today.
Fortunately, the Fox Sith, Hei Yinghao still has twenty credits in his bronze card so he could pay for his own food today if not, Tang Li Xue''s credit definitely wouldpletely be depleted in this lunch.
Li Jing has eighty credits in her bronze card so she did not have any problem. While her two teammates, Gan Aomiao and Huang Hao have fifty credits in their bronze card.
All the foods were delivered to their tables by a waiter the few moments after they put their order.
Tang Li Xue and the other quietly and slowly savored the extremely delicious delicacies in front of them with a blissful expression.
They could only admit it that all the foods here were extremely worth the price.
All the meats were cooked with the special seasoning made from the mix of several precious herbs.
They almost swallowed their tongue because of the foods'' deliciousness.
"Li Jing, I thought you are a nun. So you are eating meat too!" Tang Li Xue chuckled when she saw Li Jing''s blissful expression when she tasted the delicious meat dish in front of her.
" Amitabha! Almsgiver Tang, I am a fox too after all. Of course, I can eat meat too. I can also kill living beings if I want to. It''s just that I choose not to do it. Eating meat is okay but the moment we took any life, unconsciously our karma will also be bounded to the one we kill. So it is better if we try to avoid killing anyone as much as we could." Li Jing answered Tang Li Xue and smiled at her while giving some advice to her.
''Our karma will also be bounded to the one we kill... huh.'' Tang Li Xue thought for a moment and smiled as she casually nodded to Li Jing.
Thunder King Fiery Hawk''s Egg Omelette Rice: 4999 Credits
Tang Li Xue peeked at the most expensive food in the menu book and vowed to eat it with Yaya to their heart content someday.
After treating Yaya and Bing Yi for this lunch, her ny credits had shrunk to twenty-three credits.
However, they still have not realized the true horror they will be facingter.
They only realized it after they came back to their respective room and found out that some of them could not activate their room even after they inserted their bronze card into the ck tiny box behind the door!
What did it mean if they could not activate their room with their bronze card? It means they could only live in that dark closet-sized room, not in the special space with a two-story house like before!
Foxes that still have credits in their bronze cards like Tang Li Xue and Li Jing did not know but the other foxes in their group were panicked. They thought their bronze card has broken.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao knocked Tang Li Xue''s door a few times and told her everything after she came out from her room.
Tang Li Xue brought them together with her to the first floor and helped them ask the front desk staff about it, only to find out that they need to pay ten credits every day to activate the special space with that two-story house.
They could even upgrade the special space and make the house in that space be more luxurious if they wanted to but the payment would also increase to hundreds or even thousands of credits.
Not long after, Li Jing also brought her teammates to the first floor to ask but Tang Li Xue told Li Jing first about it before Li Jing could ask the front desk staff.
"The conclusion is we are really broke now..." Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead to think about what they will do next.
The other foxes almost cried when Tang Li Xue stated the fact in front of their face.
The first thing that came in Tang Li Xue''s mind was to exchange her hundreds of low-tier spirit stones in her space pouch for credits. She got tens of low-tier spirit stones from her martial soul every day anyway.
But the front desk staff only stared at Tang Li Xue weirdly for a moment when Tang Li Xue asked them about it and they patiently exined to her that the demonic beast could not use any spirit stones to advance and evolve further.
It was amon sense that only the human race could use spirit stones for their cultivation while the beast race could use vitality stones to advance their strength.
For the beast race, all the spirit stones were no more than a bunch of worthless shiny stones.
Tang Li Xue could only grit her teeth in anger and disappointment when she heard that. She already made some efforts to collect all of these low-tier spirit stones every day from her martial soul but she could not exchange any of it in this Myriad Foxes Academy now.
Of course, she could still use all of these low-tier spirit stones to get EXP for herself every day but she still hesitated to do that since she could exchange these low-tier spirit stones with many precious thingster in the human city, especially right now after she gained her human transfiguration form and she could use it to sneak into any human cityter.
Li Jing''s golden eyes shone with determination and she went to the front desk staff to ask how they could gain more credits.
There were only three ways to get more credits.
The first way was from the education department and gained the credits through their achievement just like what they did today.
The second way was from the Battle Arena. They could battle the other foxes there or put their credits and bet which fighter would win in the end. But they must have at least silver card or badge to enter the Battle Arena so they could not enter that ce for now.
Thest way was throughpleting any mission from the Mission Hall.
Where was the Mission Hall? It was the cathedral-like majestic building which they entered first after they came into this Myriad Foxes Academy. The ce where they met with Rong Jie before!
Tang Li Xue and Li Jing thanked the front desk staff for their information and ran towards the Mission Hall with all of their teammates as soon as possible.
They entered the majestic Mission Hall''s building together and walked to the reception desk. All of them somewhat sighed in relief when they found out that the one in today''s shift was not Rong Jie this time.
The reception desk''s staff was smiling kindly and exined patiently to them.
All the missions in this Mission Hall were divided into several grades from high to low: S, A, B, C, D, and E was the lowest.
Bronze badge holders like them could only take E grade mission.
While the one with a silver badge could take the D grade mission, a gold badge holder could take the C grade mission, a tinum badge holder could take the B grade mission, and a jade badge holder could take the A grade mission.
The S grade mission was special and usually tens of jade badge holders must cooperate toplete it together but it was too early and too far for them to think about the mission at this grade for now.
Tang Li Xue and the other asked the staff impatiently where they could see the list of the E grade missions, they could take today.
The staff pointed at one of the rooms with her finger then Tang Li Xue and the other dashed to that room and saw the long list of the E grade missions pasted on the wall.
Cleaning the floor of the residential area: 20 credits/floor. (The payment would be canceled if the floors are still not clean enough!)
Pulling all the wild grasses on the side of the road: 15 credits/road. (The payment would be canceled if there is even one grass left in that road!)
Lifting the heavy building materials at the construction site: 20 credits/hour (The payment would be canceled if there supervisor said you arezy!)
.....
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently when she saw the missions listed in this E grade mission.
She already did all of thesebors in her previous life until she was died from overworking and there was no way she would agree to do this again in her current life!
''For God''s sake, I already reincarnated in this Immortal World with super OP system from The Great Sage, Heaven''s Equal himself! Why the hell I must work like this again?! No! Just no!'' Tang Li Xue screamed in her heart.
While Li Jing and the others busied themselves choosing which F-grade mission they would take on, Tang Li Xue had already given up on taking any F-grade missions.
Tang Li Xue stood behind the others silently. She thought really long and hard about what she would do to gain credits faster.
After a few minutes, Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes glittered brighter as a light bulb in her head lit up when she remembered something she got from her system.
The [Sub-Profession Package]!
She was hesitated in choosing between Alchemist and Inscriptionist before but now she had already made her choice firmly.
To be an expert in Alchemist, she would need to use many precious herbs to concoct pills and there was a high chance she would fail so many times before she could sessfully concoct one of the pills.
The reality was vastly different from the novel where the main character could find many precious herbs at the roadside then concoct any pills with 100% chances of sess and the main character became an expert in Alchemist in only a few days.
Later the main character will be somewhat popr and sold his pills with sky-high price but somehow many people will still scramble to buy it at all costs and even invited the main character to join their faction.
In reality, even the smartest prodigy would need several months of countless trial and error in concocting pills to be an expert in Alchemist.
Who knows in that several months just how many precious herbs that prodigy would need to waste in order to be an Alchemist expert!
The alchemist was always the money burning profession!
It was impossible for the current poor Tang Li Xue to became an Alchemist expert even with this [Sub-Profession Package]''s help since she did not have any credits to buy any ingredient like a few stalks of the precious herbs to concoct the pill.
Of course, she could choose to use herst [Greater Lucky Sticker] to raise her luck to maximum and find many precious herbs at the roadside just like what happened when she used her [Lucky Sticker] to find some stalks of [Seven-Colored Star Grass] to help someone back then.
However, Tang Li Xue would never do that since she already firmly decided to use her [Greater Lucky Sticker] ten dayster before she evolves to the next grade.
''Come to think of it, who is the lucky guy I save back then with [Seven-Colored Star Grass]? How can I not remember anything about that person? This is strange... I, Tang Li Xue usually would always remember anyone that owed me before!'' Tang Li Xue frowned slightly when she tried to remember that incident once more in her mind.
Tang Li Xue thought for a moment but she shook her head when she still could not remember anything about that lucky guy. She decided to forget about it for now and focused on the matter in front of her seriously.
''I already decided it. I will choose Inscriptionist as my first sub-profession!''
''Beside that, I still have all of those books and notes left behind by that whatever Alchemist from Asura Demon Sect in his spatial ring that I stole before. With all of the knowledge like pill recipes and concocting guides, I am pretty sure that I can be an alchemistter even without this [Sub-Profession Package] help!''
Tang Li Xue grasped her fist tightly as her eyes shone with determination. She left the Mission hall alone with Yaya and went into Inscriptionist Shop.
Chapter 149 - 149: The Beginner Inscriptionist!
Chapter 149 - 149: The Beginner Inscriptionist!
There were many kinds of items in the Inscription shop such as formation tes, inscription pens, Inscription guide books, etc.
However, the most purchased items in the Inscription shop were many different kinds of demonic beasts'' blood especially beast lord rank or Tang Li Xue''s system called it [Rare] grade demonic beasts.
The higher the beast blood rank used for inscription, the higher the sess rate in creating it, and the more potent the effect of that inscription.
Tang Li Xue was so broke right now so she could not buy anything other than talisman paper.
As for the demonic beast''s blood used for inscribing the rune on the talisman paper? She nned to use her own blood for that.
She believed that whatever Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline in her vein should be able to help her a bit when she inscribed some runester.
One talisman paper only cost two credits but as a starter, Tang Li Xue was fated to fail so many times at first so she decided to use her remaining thirteen credits to buy six talisman papers at one go, only leaving one credit in her bronze card in the end.
''Hopefully, it''s really working! If not, I and Yaya would probably need to skip our dinner tonight... and if I can''t get more credits in tomorrow''s ss then... No, no, no! It should be working! It must be working!'' Tang Li Xue put her hands together and prayed in her heart.
Tang Li Xue ran back to her room in the residential building with Yaya, inserted her bronze card into the ck tiny box, and went into her house.
After entering her bedroom, Tang Li Xue took out the [Sub-Profession Package] in her system inventory.
Tang Li Xue inhaled deeply as she tried to open the [Sub-Profession Package]''s box in front of her.
Ding!
[Please choose your Sub-Profession before opening the Sub-Profession Package! What Sub-Profession did you choose?]
"Inscriptionist!" Tang Li Xue whispered firmly with her childish voice.
[The Sub-Profession Package for Inscriptionist job has been given! You can open the package now!]
The moment Tang Li Xue opened the [Sub-Profession Package]''s box in front of her, all the basic level Inscriptionist knowledge was flowing into her mind.
Ding!
[Sub-Profession''s parameter has been opened! The Inscriptionist level is set to level 1 (beginner).]
[Congrattion! You got an Inscription Pen from the Sub-Profession Package!]
The [Sub-Profession Package]''s box instantly vanished after Tang Li Xue opened it and there was a beautiful gold fountain pen in front of her.
Tang Li Xue carefully took it with her slender fingers and scanned it with her basic [All Knowing Eyes].
[Inscription Pen]
[Description: Inscription Pen made from Divine Dragon''s w. Extremely sharp, can be used as a secret weapon! But be really careful not to lose it, this pen is priceless!]
[Effect 1: sess rate in making Inscription +20%]
[Effect 2: Inscription making speed +30%]
[Effect 3: Inscription Effect +30%]
[Effect 4: Inscription''s Duration of Activation +30%]
[Effect 5: Inscription Stamina Cost -50%]
[Effect 6: Pration (Can prate any kind of hard surface or carve any inscription in any kind of surface)]
[Effect 7: Invulnerable Object (Cannot be broken by any kind of powers or tools)]
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in surprise and her petite body shuddered violently in shock. She almost dropped the gold [Inscription Pen] in her hands after she read all of the seven effects.
''Godly! This Inscription pen is a godly item with seven effects!'' Tang Li Xue''s eyes reddened in greed when she thought about the credits she would get from her inscriptionter she started to drool and it almost dripped onto her own bed.
"Ufufufu... Muahahahahaha! With this golden pen, the world shall be mine! Oops, wrong... I mean all the credits in the world shall be mine! Muahahaha..." Tang Li Xue raised her gold [Inscription Pen] and started tough maniacally, totally unfit with current her loli sized body.
It took more than ten minutes to calm down her mood. Tang Li Xue went out of her bedroom and headed to the study room.
Tang Li Xue also told Yaya to not bother her while she was in the study room since she wanted to start inscribing a rune onto the talisman paper with her golden [Inscription Pen] and she needs to fully focused to do that.
Tang Li Xue sat on the chair in the study room. She pulled out all six talisman papers from her space pouch and put it onto the desk in front of her.
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes and inhaled deeply and digesting the basic Inscription knowledge in her mind.
The most basic inscription form was known as a rune. They could write this rune onto talisman paper or amulet that could grant some temporary buff or ability to the one using it. In ournguage, these runes were the same as alphabets or letters like A, B, C, D, etc.
The string of runes will form an inscription. Inscriptionist''s true power will be shown only after they could make an inscription. They could also start to carve their inscription onto the surface of some items like a normal sword and turn it into a spiritual flying sword! In ournguage, this inscription was the same as the word formed from several letters.
Several inscriptions could form an array. This array was like a sentence formed from several words in ournguage. The power of the array did not need to be questioned. The teleportation array and super strong barrier at Asura Demon Sect was the final product of array made by a renowned Inscriptionist.
She opened back her eyes after she determined which rune she would be inscribed into the talisman papers in front of her.
[Rune of Strength] Effect: Strength +10%.
''Hum... I will choose this [Rune of Strength] then. This is the easiest basic buff rune. With this golden [Inscription Pen] I should be able to seed at least once or twice in six tries!'' Tang Li Xue nodded to herself after she decided it.
Tang Li Xue expression turned serious as she gripped the golden [Inscription Pen] tightly in her right hand, and she punctured her left thumb with the pen.
The golden [Inscription Pen] absorbed some blood from Tang Li Xue''s left thumb for a while then she started to write the [Rune of Strength] on the talisman paper using her own blood.
When the tip of the [Inscription Pen] touched the talisman paper surface, the sharp golden pen immediately prated through it without any resistance, and it even made a hole in the desk.
Tang Li Xue once again shocked by how sharp this [Inscription Pen] was and she would never think her first failure was because of how sharp her pen was.
Tang Li Xue crumpled the first talisman paper and threw it away beside her desk then she took the second one.
The second tries, she did not puncture the desk with her [Inscription Pen] but the pen managed to cut the talisman paper to pieces as if she was trying to write with an extremely sharp dagger.
After two more tries, she finally could inscribe the [Rune of Strength] steadily on the talisman paper without ruining it but... BOFF!
The talisman paper turned into dust. For some unknown reasons, she had failed again.
She took her fifth talisman paper and imagined the [Rune of Strength] in her mind so vividly then started to inscribe it onto the talisman paper.
Tang Li Xue felt really good this time and she inscribed the [Rune of Strength] so perfectly. It was impossible for her to...
BOOFFFF!!!
fail this time... Okay forget it.
Tang Li Xue was fuming in rage. She stood up from her chair and raised the golden pen in her right-hand highly. She really wanted to throw this scam pen so badly onto the ground now.
However, she decided not to do it in the end. Not because she was afraid the golden pen will break or damaged since it has [Invulnerable Object] effect but because she was afraid that the staff would ask her forpensation if this golden pen damaged the floor after she smashed it downter.
Tang Li Xue only has onest talisman paper left now if she failed again then there would be really no dinner for her, Bing Yi, and Yaya tonight.
Tang Li Xue calmed down herself again and closed her eyes to revise all of her knowledge about the basic inscription in the next hour.
''Weird... I should have seeded thatst time but I failed in the end. Why? How could I fail after everything is already so perfect?!''
''Wait a minute... is it because I use my blood? Because I am still a [Common] grade savage beast so the sess rate is so low to almost negligible?! Sigh...''
But Tang Li Xue''s eyes immediately brightened when she peeked on the demonic beast blood part which was used for inscribing in her mind.
Demonic beast blood used for inscribing was also a very important element in the inscription. For example, if you used the blood from the lightning elemental demonic beast to inscribe the lightning element runes, the sess rate will certainly increase.
On the contrary, if you used the blood from the fire elemental demonic beast to inscribe the water element runes, the sess rate will plummet to almost impossible.
Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips while thinking: ''What if I try to inscribe one of my skills onto the talisman paper? My sess rate will certainly increase! Let''s see...''
Inscribing her divine ability onto the talisman paper was impossible with her current level for now so she could only pick one of her first skills before it upgraded like [jump] or [Night Vision].
Her most useful first skills before it upgraded were [Dash] and [Self-Healing].
Tang Li Xue decided to inscribe [Dash] for now and searched the correct rune in her mind. She managed to find it after a few minutes.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned solemn as she started to carefully inscribe [Dash] rune onto the talisman paper with her golden [Inscription Pen] earnestly.
The rune like [Dash], [Jump], etc were known as skill type basic rune and it was far harder to makepared with the buff type basic rune like the [Rune of Strength].
But Tang Li Xue did not care about that and still decided to try to make it.
Ding!
[Host sessfully inscribed the Talisman of Dash +1!]
[Inscriptionist''s proficiency has increased!]
[Inscriptionist''s proficiency has leveled up to level 2 (Beginner)!]
''SUCCESS!!! Uwohooooo~~! I wonder how many credits I can get from this talisman if I sell it?!'' Tang Li Xue jumped around happily around the study room with a silly happy smile stered on her amazingly beautiful face.
Tang Li Xue activated her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to identify the talisman''s effect in her hands.
[Talisman of Dash +1]
[Effect: Activated Dash skill. (Movement speed +100% for 30 seconds.)]
[+1 Effect: Movement speed+30%. Duration +10 seconds.]
This talisman effect was so good that even Tang Li Xue started to feel reluctant to sell it but she has no other choice right now since she did not have any more credits to buy another talisman paper or food.
''Oh well... I can buy some talisman paperster with the money I got from selling this [Talisman of Dash +1].'' Tang Li Xue smiled happily from ear to ear.
Chapter 150 - 150: Auctioning the Talisman!
Chapter 150 - 150: Auctioning the Talisman!
Tang Li Xue did not realize it was almost night outside when she was so focused on inscribing the rune onto the talisman paper in her study room.
Tang Li Xue took Yaya with her and both of them went out from the tall residential building hastily.
Actually, Tang Li Xue could sell her [Talisman of Dash +1] at any Inscription shop on the side of the street but she still did not know how much her talisman worth right now.
She was afraid of being scammed by those shady shop owners so she decided to go directly to the auction house in the western trading area.
Although, the auction house would take 20% of the total selling price after they sessfully sold the item but at least she will not get scammed since her talisman would be auctioned directly in front of so many potential buyers.
Tang Li Xue entered the gigantic auction house and found that there were many other foxes whether in their real form or human form.
They were currently selling many different kinds of items here like talismans, armors, weapons, pills, beast cores, etc.
The scene here reminded her of the giant shopping mall in her previous life.
"Come and look here, please! This Scaled Crocodile Armor can withstand the attack from the human at the Foundation Establishment Stage! Only 20,000 credits!"
"The Beast Lord''s Core of the [Twin-Horned Tiger Shark]! 59,000 credits! Price is still negotiable!"
"Selling several kinds of the [Talisman of Protection Barrier]! Cheap prices are guaranteed!"
Tang Li Xue never entered the shopping mall in her previous life before but she already watched it often from the TV so she finds it quite normal but this was the first time for Yaya to look at this scene so her emerald green eyes were shining full of curiosity and she kept looking around from the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
Tang Li Xue tried to ask the front desk staff about how many credits she would need to rent the empty spot in this shopping mall... err... I mean the auction house.
The front desk staff answered Tang Li Xue''s question politely that she needs to pay several thousands of credits every day and the price can be high or low ording to the spot she wanted to rent.
If the ce she wanted to rent was at a remote area at the corner of the auction house then the price would be cheaper, but if she wanted to rent the ce at the core area of the auction house where the people crowded around then the price would be more expensive.
Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips twitched slightly when she heard ''several thousands of credits''. She did not even have several tens of credits in her bronze card right now!
Tang Li Xue took out the [Talisman of Dash +1] from her space pouch and gave it to the auction staff so they could auction it.
The auction staff also recorded the [Talisman of Dash +1]''s effect from Tang Li Xue''s statement and she must add her fingerprint... or her paw print to be exact at the end of her statement as warranty.
The auction staff also asked Tang Li Xue to how much the starting price of her talisman and how long her item would be auctioned off. Tang Li Xue asked the auction staff about the market price for the basic talisman.
Tang Li Xue found out from the auction staff that the basic buff talisman price was ranged from 50 to 200 credits but the basic skill talisman price was a bit higher than that, it was ranged from 100 to 300 credits.
In the end, she decided to take the middle of that price range and set the starting price to 200 credits for her talisman. She auctioned it from now for three hours.
A few momentster, the auction staff posted Tang Li Xue''s talisman in their auction items'' catalog.
Anyone could buy themunication talisman from the auction staff and they could see the auction items'' catalog from thatmunication talisman anytime anywhere as long as they were still in this Myriad Foxes Academy area.
They could raise their bid on any the item they wanted to buy using thatmunication talisman and they did not even need toe to the auction house.
After they bought any items they want from the auction house, they could even ask the auction staff to deliver it straight onto their ce but of course, they need to pay for that delivery service.
The price of themunication talisman from the auction house was not that expensive at all, only 500 credits but unfortunately, that price was very expensive for the current Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya kept staring at therge screen above the front desk. There were hundreds of items listed in that catalog and some of the items'' prices also kept increasing.
Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Dash +1] also listed there and the price increased to 280 credits in a few seconds.
Tang Li Xue became even more excited when she saw the price of her talisman continue to soar.
250 credit...
300 credits...
320 credits...
350 credits...
The reason Tang Li Xue''s talisman price could surpass themon [Talisman of Dash] by almost twice was because it has its +1 effect.
Imagine what the result if one person pursuit the other person and both of them have the same speed and both of them also used [Talisman of Dash]? They probably entered a stalemate and they must depend on their own endurance in the end.
Then what if one of them used themon [Talisman of Dash] while the other one used Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Dash +1]?
Moreover, if you used the same talisman twice, it did not mean the effect would be doubled! The effect would stay the same, only the duration would be refreshed back.
For example, if someone activated the [Talisman of Dash] for the second time when the duration only 10 seconds left, the effect would stay the same but the duration would refresh back to 30 seconds.
After waiting for 3 hours until the skies turned dark, Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Dash +1] was bought by someone for 580 credits.
In the end, Tang Li Xue got 465 credits from the auction house after they cut 20% from 580 credits as their fee.
Tang Li Xue happily exited from the auction house and went into the Inscription Shop again to buy some nk talisman papers.
This time she bought fifty talisman papers at once for 100 credits before returning back to her residential building.
Tang Li Xue knocked on Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao''s room for a few minutes. She still felt really guilty for the two of them since their team lost because of her so she wanted to treat these two for a dinner tonight to make up for that.
Unfortunately, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao did not answer at all.
It looked like the two of them still had note back to their own room so she could only bring Yaya alone to the luxurious restaurant on the first floor and the two of them happily ate to their heart content this time.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not dare to order the expensive delicacies, only some cheap ones but at least they could eat it until they were really full tonight.
The credits in Tang Li Xue''s bronze card have shrunk to 190 credits but she did not think too much about it since she could get more from selling her talismanter.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya went straight to their room after eating to their heart content. Both of them went straight into the bedroom to sleep.
Tang Li Xue kissed Yaya''s forehead before she closed her eyes to sleep and Yaya also kissed Tang Li Xue''s forehead back before she slept.
They slept together in the same bed as usual but today for the first time, Tang Li Xue could finally fell asleep so tightly without any worry. She even started to look forward to the next day.
.....
...
.
The next morning, Yaya woke up early like usual and she tried to wake Tang Li Xue up just like yesterday.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue could wake up early this time and she even knocked on Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao''s room for more than ten minutes but they still no responded at all.
Tang Li Xue thought maybe these two already woke up before her and already arrived at the education building first before her so she decided to go to the education building too.
Tang Li Xue already knew where their ssroom was since Instructor Mei Lan already showed them where yesterday.
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue was the first one to arrive in the ssroom after Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips twitched a bit while Instructor Mei Lan stared at her strangely.
"I am really surprised that you cane on time today." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was bbergasted by Instructor Mei Lan''s response.
''What the hell with that response?! You should ask me where all the other students first, right? Why is it seems like you are really surprised that I don''tete today?! Oh well, it''s not like I know where they are now anyway even if you ask me... but... but... urgh...'' Tang Li Xue grumbled in her mind.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled when she saw Tang Li Xue weird expression and she kindly exined: "Normally, the first day some of the students will definitelyete and on the second day, all of the students will definitelyete. This is also themon knowledge in this Myriad Foxes Academy."
"This happened because everyone will desperately need some credits to live in this Myriad Foxes Academy. They will start working overnight once they find out that they can earn credits frompleting the F grade mission from Mission Hall. But looking at your condition right now, it seems like you did not do any mission yesterday." Instructor Mei Lan said while looking at Tang Li Xue from head to toe.
"Looking at... my condition?" Tang Li Xue tilted her head and stared quizzically at Instructor Mei Lan. She looked really cute right now so Instructor Mei Lan could not hold it anymore and pinched her squishy cheeks a few times.
"You find out about itter. You can sit first. We will wait for them before we start our lesson for today." Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue to sit after she was satisfied pinching Tang Li Xue''s soft cheek.
Tang Li Xue could only stare at Instructor Mei Lan resentfully with her swollen cheeks before she sat at her seat.
Li Jing and her team including Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao finally came into the ss together after more than one hour have passed.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya almost fell asleep on their seat from the boredom when they were waiting for all of them.
But now, Tang Li Xue and Yaya kept staring at Li Jing and the others dumbfoundedly.
Since Li Jing and the others'' condition looked really bad. Their faces were pale and there were ck bags under their eyes.
Even the prim and proper Li Jing lost her noble and holy aura right now. She looked like an abused teenage girl.
Tang Li Xue really wanted tough at them but she also pitied them, it was really aplicated feeling.
''I am really curious now... What exactly were they doingst night? Their condition would not be this bad if they were only sweeping the street or pulling some grasses overnight yesterday, right? They are very strong after all! It should be no problem for them to sweep every street for a few days nonstop!'' Tang Li Xue touched her chin with her slender fingers while thinking curiously.
Chapter 151 - 151: Trapped!
Chapter 151 - 151: Trapped!
Instructor Mei Lan giggled when she was looking at their pitiful condition but her next words instantly brought despair to Li Jing and the others.
"All of youe toote today. The punishment will be doubled from yesterday. Minus sixty credits!" Instructor Mei Lan still smiled gently while saying their punishment as if she was rewarding them instead.
Li Jing and the others immediately fell into despair and begged Instructor Mei Lan to lighten their punishment.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled happily at them made Li Jing and the others have some hopes.
"Nope! Let''s start our ss today!" Instructor Mei Lan pped her hands.
Li Jing and the others: "....."
Instructor Mei Lan reviewed back all of their [Telepathy] skill for the next hour and pointed several of their mistakes so they could fix it then they continued to their next lesson.
Instructor Mei Lan gave each of them another jade slip this time and they tapped it onto their forehead again like before.
However, the content of the jade slip this time made them allpletely dumbfounded.
"Errr... Instructor Mei Lan, please tell me that this is a super-powerful ancient martial art..." Tang Li Xue said with her sweet childish voice but her expression was extremely weird.
"No, that is a set of dance movements. We will practice this dance from now on for one week!" Instructor Mei Lan said with a serious tone.
"But why?! We enter this Myriad Foxes Academy because we want to get strong!" Surprisingly, Bing Yi was the first one toin, not Tang Li Xue.
"If even one of you can do this set of dance movements today, I will reward each of you 100 credits!" Instructor Mei Lan said leisurely. She was toozy to exin the effect of this set of dance movements would bring to them.
Li Jing and the others'' eyes turned red when they heard that. They worked for the entire night and could only get less than 100 credits but now Instructor Mei Lan promised to give each of them 100 credits if they could do that set of dance movements. How could they not tempt by it?
They immediately went took their position and tried it but they keep failed again and again.
In one look Tang Li Xue already knew that all of these dance moves were not simple at all.
Each of these dance moves looked graceful and beautiful to look at.
Combined with the beauty of their fox race when they turned into human form, they looked even more alluring when doing this dance and they could easily seduce any male human.
However, each movement in this dance was harder than the extreme yoga in her previous life. They need high bnce and flexibility to do it perfectly but they all only got their human form just recently.
It was clear that these dance moves'' aim was to assist them and get them used to their human form so they could fight properly in their human form as soon as possible.
Tang Li Xue was a former human a few months ago but she was reincarnated as a fox now after all.
Born as a human and born as a fox then regain her human form has a huge difference! It was something like when you were used to an automatic car and then suddenly you switched to a manual car. So she still at least needs one day to get used to her human form again.
However, even after she got used to her human form now, she still could still not finish this set of dance moves because it was simply too difficult to the point of a nightmare.
For example, the movement where they must lower their knees for a few inches until they almost kneeled but their knees must not touch the ground, then they must bended their body 90 degrees backward in that position. They almost broke their spine when they tried to do that and they all stumbled backward.
In the end, no one could even finish this set of dance moves until the ss ended and could only go back full of disappointment.
"Oh yes, I must remind you all. If you still cannot finish this set of dance movements after three days, I will deduct 300 credits from each of you! So you all better take fewer missions from now on and start training at home!" Instructor Mei Lan warned them sternly before dismissed the ss for today.
Li Jing and the others groaned in fear and despair when they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s warning, even Tang Li Xue frowned a bit when she heard that.
After their ss ended, Li Jing, Tang Li Xue, and the others went to the restaurant on the first floor of the residential building to eat their lunch.
Tang Li Xue took this chance to ask them what happenedst night to make them looked so haggard like now and they started to tell Tang Li Xue everything.
Apparently, when Li Jing and the others wanted to take the easy F-grade mission like sweeping the street or pulling the grasses, all of those missions had already been taken by the others so they were forced to take the harder ones.
The harder F-grade missions were actually far more dangerous though it will not endanger their life, such as bing target practice for sophomore students or be a guinea pig to test the pill effect from a beginner alchemist or feeding a vicious pet at beast lord''s level. Each one of those missions was more than enough to make them lose one or two limbs.
Just hearing their story was enough to make Tang Li Xue''s scalp went numb.
"And here I thought that sweeping the street and pulling the grasses are already bad enough... Good luck to all of you! May God always bless all of you!" Tang Li Xue raised her thumb and offered her condolence... I mean her pray toward all of herrades.
Tang Li Xue treated all of them for a lunch today and her 190 credits have shrunk to 20 credits but she did not worry at all since she could make more talismans today and sell it all to auction house again like yesterday.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were really worried about her since she used so many of her credits to treat them all for a lunch but she only said that she has a way to gain credits quickly.
After eating their lunch, Li Jing, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the others went to Mission Hall to take some F-grade missions again while Tang Li Xue went back to her room with Yaya.
Tang Li Xue entered her study room, she took out her golden [Inscription Pen] from her system inventory, and all of her nk talisman papers from her space pouch.
"Okay, let''s begin today!" Tang Li Xue grasped her fist tightly and shouted loudly to motivate herself.
Today she wanted to inscribe her [Self-Healing] passive skill onto the nk talisman papers. If she really seeded, she could use this talisman to heal herrades in critical conditionter!
But unfortunately, the reality was really harsh...
POOOFFF... POOOFFF... POOOFFF... POOOFFF... POOOFFF...
It was not as smooth as she thought it to be. She almost lost her patience after failed for five times consecutively.
POOOFFF~~!!!
The sixth talisman paper also turned to dust after Tang Li Xue failed to inscribe her [Self-Healing] skill onto it.
"Fuuuh... Calm down! Let''s try to make some [Talisman of Dash] again like yesterday." Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead with her finger.
Ding!
[Host sessfully inscribed the Talisman of Dash +1!]
[Inscriptionist''s proficiency has increased!]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief. Her luck was not as bad as she thought it to be. She managed to make two [Talisman of Dash +1!] in twelve tries. If she sold it with yesterday''s price, she could get almost 1,000 credits!
But when she decided to try to make [Self-Healing] talisman again, she started to feel dizzy and her mind assaulted by a head-splitting headache.
Tang Li Xue sighed in helplessness and frustration while thinking: ''As I expect, my spirit is still too weak. That''s why Gan Aomiao can control me so easily with her divine ability. Even now, I can only try to inscribe the rune for 18-19 times. I will probably fell unconscious if I try to inscribe more than that.''
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and withstood the head-splitting headache. She decided to try once more for onest time before she was going to rest.
Different from [Dash] rune, the [Self-Healing] rune has two sybles so the difficulty to inscribe it was more than double than [Dash] rune.
If [Dash] rune in ournguage was ''I'' word then [Self-Healing] rune in ournguage was ''B'' word.
Tang Li Xue focused all of her attention on the golden [Inscription Pen] in her hand and the nk talisman paper in front of her then she started to inscribe the [Self-Healing] rune really carefully and slowly.
She must admit that after her first failure in inscribed the [Self-Healing] rune, she started to feel agitated and anxious which resulted in her continuous failures.
Ding!
[Host sessfully inscribed the Talisman of Healing +2!]
[Inscriptionist''s proficiency has increased!]
[Inscriptionist''s proficiency has leveled up to level 3 (Beginner)!]
''Yes! Finally, I seed! Muahahaha... and it''s +2! Not only +1!'' Tang Li Xueughed maniacally and jumped around happily while holding the [Talisman of Healing] tightly in her hands.
''Let''s see what is the effect?!'' Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips and appraised the [Talisman of Healing] in her hands with her basic [All Knowing Eyes].
[Talisman of Healing +2]
[Effect: Activated Self-Healing skill. (Heal 1% of maximum HP every 10 seconds for 100 seconds.)]
[+1 Effect: Heal +0.5% of maximum HP every 10 seconds. Duration +30 seconds.]
[+2 Effect: Heal +1% of maximum HP every 10 seconds. Duration +70 seconds.]
Tang Li Xue almost fainted in shock and happiness when she saw the OP effect of the talisman in her hands.
''What the hell?! Doesn''t it mean it will heal 2.5% of maximum HP every 10 seconds for 200 seconds?! Errr... Let me count first... Woah, it means this talisman will heal 50% HP after 200 seconds!'' Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips twitched violently in surprise when she saw the talisman effect.
She was really torn between sell this talisman to get more credits or keep it so she can use it when herrade was critically wounded.
In the end, she decided to keep it for now but she would definitely sell the next one if she managed to inscribe more of this [Talisman of Healing]ter.
Tang Li Xue felt she could no longer inscribe any more Talisman for today or she would certainly faint. Her soul had already reached her limit after trying to inscribe the rune onto the nk talisman papers for 18 times.
She stored her golden [Inscription Pen] back into her system inventory and threw all of her talisman papers back into her space pouch before she went out from the residential building with Yaya and heading straight to the auction house.
Her luck was quite good and she managed to sell the two [Talisman of Dash +1] for 1220 credits. After the auction house cut it by 20% for their fee, she still managed to get 976 credits in the end.
Everything seems so good today and Tang Li Xue kept grinning ear to ear in blissful and happiness. She even told Yaya that she could order more expensive delicacies for today.
She already decided to treat Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao for a dinner tonight in the first-floor restaurant with these credits too.
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, she was fated to face something unusual tonight.
.....
The skies already turned dark when Tang Li Xue came out from the auction house.
However, she started to feel something was not right when she was on her way back from the auction house towards the residential building.
She did not spot anyone along her way!
She also felt that she was already walking for a long time but she still did not reach her destination.
There were several hundreds of thousands of foxes in this Myriad Foxes Academy. The poption here could even match therge capital city in the human world so it was impossible for this road to be this empty!
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper as she quickly opened Yaya''s window status and pushed the > button in it.
Yaya''s tiny figure that leisurely sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head vanished after Tang Li Xue pushed the > button.
Tang Li Xue also activated her [Ethereal Form] immediately and her loli figure vanished into thin air.
''What exactly happened here? Is someone targeting me? To rob all of my talismans and credits? Impossible! All of my talismans are only at the basic level and 1,000 credits are worth almost nothing here!'' Tang Li Xue started to feel dread the more she thought about it.
The person that could set this kind of space locking array to separate her from the real road without her realizing it must be someone very strong and unfathomable.
But Tang Li Xue still really did not get it why they were targeting her.
''Maybe the secret about my me of Pride already known by someone else? It should be impossible, right?! I never told anyone about it and I was already very careful to never use it even in all the dangerous trials before! I did not even use it when I am trapped in the illusion at thest trial!''
''Maybe someone knew about my godly golden [Inscription Pen] and decided to rob it from me now? Possibly... but if I am not wrong, all the items from the system should be invisible to anyone else other than me so how could they know about it?!''
Tang Li Xue really could not think of any reason for anyone to targeting her so she decided to find the reasonter and trying her best to find the exit from this sealed space.
There was no doubt that this sealed space was made from a high-level array and the one who created this high-level array must be a master level inscriptionist with extremely high attainment.
Chapter 152 - 152: Accident!
Chapter 152 - 152: ident!
Tang Li Xue did not have any confidence that she could find a loophole in this sealed space made by the master level inscriptionist but at least she would still choose to try to find it rather than give up without trying.
Tang Li Xue even canceled her [Transfiguration] divine ability and went back to her fox form so she could fight at her full strength if needed.
She proceeded carefully in her [Ethereal Form] while kept observing everything around her.
The same road she passed every day, the same buildings she saw every day but no one at all along this road!
She was trying her best to find a loophole of this sealed space so she could escape as soon as possible from here since the longer she was trapped in here, the more intense the dangerous feeling she felt but unfortunately before she could do that...
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
An ear-deafening destructive explosion happened out of nowhere, destroying almost all east part buildings, and even the road where Tang Li Xue stood was full of cracks.
Tang Li Xue also could not escape from the destructive explosion''s shockwave and flew away for tens of meters.
Fortunately, she was still in her [Ethereal Form] so her furry tiny body passed through all material like the solid walls and obstacles without any resistance. If she was not in her [Ethereal Form], she would already crash onto several walls, tables, doors, etc, and injured heavily in the end.
Tang Li Xue got up and checked her furry body for a moment. She sighed in relief when she did not find any injuries and her HP also still full just like before.
Tang Li Xue started to hesitate between running far away from the source of explosion or approaching the source of explosion to find the cause.
Tang Li Xue thought for a moment: ''If it continues like this I will never be able to find the exit from this sealed space and who knows how long this sealed space willst. It looks like I have no choice other than looking for a space crack at that source of the explosion! Hopefully, that explosion is strong enough to create a tiny crack in this sealed space so I can sneak out without being found by anyone!''
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as her topaz blue eyes shone with a firm determination. She approached the source of the explosion carefully with her [Ethereal Form] kept activating.
She immediately lowered her head and stopped moving when her sharp ears that already enhanced many times by [Advanced Sense of Hearing] skill managed to hear something.
"Give up! You cannot win against me. Give me that ''thing'' now and I will let you live!"
"You... cough... cough... My Lord will never spare you for this! You better..."
"Shut up! I have enough of your nonsense! It''s useless for you to stall for more time! You are in my sealed space right now and you will never be able to escape from here unless I lift the array by myself. Give it to me right now or DIE!"
"Okay... Okay, I get it. But you must swear to spare me after I give you the item!"
"I swear I will let you go if you give me that ''thing''. Now give it to me!"
Tang Li Xue could only hear their voices. She was still too far from them added with all of this smoke, dust, and ruins that hindering her vision, she could not even see the silhouette of those two clearly.
Tang Li Xue could only guess their gender from their voices. The one who threatens was a male while the one who got threatened was a female!
Tang Li Xue also did not dare to move closer to them since she could already sense their terrifying pressure and aura emitting out from the ce where those two were right now.
These two were surely many times stronger than her. In front of their eyes, Tang Li Xue was probably no more than an ant that identally stuck in their cage.
But they would surely kill her if they found out that she was identally stuck here to eliminate all living witnesses. Like what everyone always saying: only dead men tell nothing.
Tang Li Xue grimaced as if she was identally swallowing a fly. She really found it hard to believe that she could identally stumble upon a great conflict between the strong foxes after entered the Myriad Foxes Academy for only two days!
''What rotten luck! I can''t believe my luck still did not change at allpared with my previous life even with all of these luck stats boosts I have right now!'' Tang Li Xue cursed her luck in her mind.
The ring ne on her neck has a luck increase attribute along with her martial soul after all! So how could her luck still so bad!
''Their fight already end. They will surely lift this array after that and I can sneak away from them without being found. Hopefully, everything will be working as I hoped.'' Tang Li Xue silently prayed in her heart.
A few seconds of silence felt like a few hours long for Tang Li Xue as she gulped her saliva in nervousness.
"What the f*ck are you doing?! Are you really want to die so badly?!"
"You liar, how could you spare me after you get the item? You will certainly kill me to silence me, right?! Ptui... How dare you coveting My Lord''s stuff?! I will bring you down to hell with me! AAAAAAAHHHHHH~!!!"
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
Thankfully, this time Tang Li Xue already made her preparation. She was already hiding behind a solid wall so the shockwave from their fierce battle did not make her tossed backward again like before.
''Holysh*t! Why the hell are they fighting again?! Can''t you two just discuss this peacefully? How about dividing that whatever thing or item into two?!'' Tang Li Xue lied down while scolded those two strong foxes in her heart.
However, the battle this time onlysted for a moment before it went silent again.
"Humph! What an impudent trash! A weakling like you wants to bring me down to hell with you? Dream on!"
"You... will... regret... it... My... lord... will... not... let... you..."
PUUUUFFFFF~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s tiny furry body shivered and her neck also felt cold. Thatst sound was so familiar to her. That was thest sound she heard when she died in the illusion made by the Bridge of Sincerity before.
Tap... Tap... Tap... Tap... Tap...
Tang Li Xue heard the sound of heavy steps getting closer to her right now.
''Dammit! Why does he need toe here at this timing?! Can he just head in the other direction?! Could it be he came here because he detected me? It''s impossible, right? What to do?! Should I run as fast as I can from here or should I keep hiding here?''
Tang Li Xue started to regret it very much that she did not master the [Art of Concealment] yet since she did not have any spare time to learn it until now.
Tang Li Xue decided to close her eyes and recalled some important parts from the [Art of Concealment] swiftly.
She started to regte her breathing and slowed down her heartbeat ording to the instruction from the [Art of Concealment].
Her heart got a lot calmer. Her anxiousness and fear were fading away along with the scene around her. Her breath and heartbeat also got slower and slower.
This was her first time using it since she never even practiced it before so the effect was so limited and far from perfect but when itbined with her passive divine ability [Conceal] and her [Ethereal Form], it was enough to deceive that man and made him felt doubtful in his sense.
Tang Li Xue currently closed her eyes and all of her senses so she could not see or feel that the man was actually stood in front of the wall where she hid right now!
The man frowned as he raised his hand and.....
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
The solid wall in front of Tang Li Xue got smashed into smithereens and even the ground under Tang Li Xue was full of cracks.
"There really is no one here? Tsk... It looks like I be more paranoid because of this mission. How could someone sneak into this array made by the honorable one without being found by me?! Sigh... I really should get a holiday after this."
"I am afraid some officials will definitelye here soon to check. They should be able to sense the abnormal space fluctuation when I activated the array before. I must hurry and get away from here before theye but I should retrieve the honorable one''s formation te before that."
The man shook his head and sighed in relief then his figure vanished as he went away to where he set the core of the array before so he could turn off the array and take back the formation te.
A few minutes after that man left, Tang Li Xue coughed violently. She felt really ufortable all over her body right now.
But Tang Li Xue still felt thankful for this technique since she could survive today''s cmity thanks to it.
Tang Li Xue felt she should get away from this ce as soon as possible but she also felt her curiosity kept urging her to check the dead body.
Tang Li Xue decided her choice after a few moments of thinking and whispered to herself in her mind: ''The fortune always prefers the brave one! Go, Tang Li Xue! Although, that man already took all that woman''s belonging after killing her but at least, I can still get her beast core from her dead body! If I can get a [Rare] grade beast core, I can sell it for more than 50,000 creditster!''
Tang Li Xue dashed as fast as she could in her [Ethereal Form]. She still did not dare to turn off her [Ethereal Form] even now.
After she reached the ce where those two fought before, Tang Li Xue saw a three-tailed grey fox corpse, and it was quite big too, almost as big as a steed.
''Woah, three tails... My guess is right! It''s a [Rare] grade fox!'' Tang Li Xue started to get more excited.
However, the condition of this fox corpse was quite bad right now. It seems that man used some kind of poisonous drug or medicine at the fox corpse.
The fur, flesh, bone, and blood were slowly melted away bit by bit and turned into the clear liquid like water. It would probably take ten minutes or so before this fox corpse turnedpletely into a puddle of clear liquid and no more evidence will be left behind.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter when she saw that since it would mean no one will know if she took the beast core from this fox corpse before it melted away.
''What a waste! If I don''t take the beast core, it will also melt and turn into liquidter, right? Tsk, so I did not do anything wrong at all! I am only making use of this beast core rather than letting it go to waste! What I am doing right now is to avoid wasting a resource!''
Tang Li Xue licked her lips and turned off her [Ethereal Form]. She tried to split open the fox corpse''s chest with her sharp ws so she could take out the beast core from within it but the flesh and bones of this fox were still really tough.
Tang Li Xue thought for a while before she took out her golden [Inscription Pen] from her inventory system and used it to pry open the fox corpse''s chest bit by bit.
The golden [Inscription Pen] was iparably sharp. It could prate the fox corpse''s bones and flesh without met with any resistance. The only drawback was it only about twenty centimeters long and only its pen point nib that sharp.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue managed to take out the beast core with her golden [Inscription Pen] before the corpse meltedpletely after trying her hardest.
Tang Li Xue really wanted tough out loud happily when she saw the crystal ball as big as an a.d.u.l.t fist in her paws.
Even though she was identally stumbled upon a great danger tonight and almost got killed but she still felt quite lucky and she was really satisfied with her harvest this time.
''Like what everyone always says, any great fortunes will always be apanied by great danger. I agree with this sentence!''
When she was stealing the pills from the pill storing room before or when she was taking the precious herbs from that alchemist garden, everything was apanied by great dangers but she still survived in the end and managed to get a bountiful harvest.
But when Tang Li Xue wanted to activate her [Ethereal Form] once again and ran away as far as she can from here, she discovered a ck tiny box like a ring box after the fox corpse meltedpletely to the puddle of clear liquid.
Subconsciously, she remembered about the ''item'' or ''thing'' that these two mentioned before.
It was clear that this fox did not store that ''item'' or ''thing'' in its space pouch but inside its own body!
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently when she realized that she was identally involved in something she should not be, deeper and deeper.
She really wanted to abandon this ck tiny box so badly now and she also kept reminding herself to not fall deeper into this dangerous case and not to fall under her own curiosity because curiosity always kills the cat!
''Dammit! I really hate my curiosity! But if I don''t take this ck tiny box then my name will no longer be Tang Li Xue!''
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth she took out the alchemist''s spatial ring she got from Asura Demon Sect before and took out the old ancient cauldron full of cracks from it.
Tang Li Xue threw the ck tiny box into the old ancient cauldron before storing it again into the alchemist''s spatial ring then she stuffed the spatial ring into her space pouch.
''I am really afraid if that man can still track this tiny ck boxter... Hopefully, this is enough to prevent that man from tracking this box!'' Tang Li Xue silently prayed in her heart.
She activated her [Ethereal Form] and waited for a while.
When that man managed to turn off the array and the sealed space has been lifted, she immediately used her [Blink] skill repeatedly and went away as far as she could from here.
Tang Li Xue wanted to go back to residential building as fast as she could.
Chapter 153 - 153: Restless Night!
Chapter 153 - 153: Restless Night!
The first thing Tang Li Xue did after she entered back into her room was to throw the [Rare] grade beast core she got into the ancient cauldron too.
''If that man got what he wanted tonight then I can sell this [Rare] grade beast core peacefully tomorrow. But the problem now is that man failed to get what he wants tonight so he will probably search it relentlessly after he realized it. I can''t sell this [Rare] grade beast core in this Myriad Foxes Academy anymore or that man can trace it back to me!''
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and decided to not sell this [Rare] grade beast core.
Tang Li Xue summoned Yaya out again from her system storage after she calmed down herself.
Yaya threw a tantrum to Tang Li Xue for a while but Tang Li Xue managed to coax her with the promise to treat her with delicious foods in tonight''s dinner.
Yaya pounced toward Tang Li Xue and kissed Tang Li Xue''s cheek happily after she heard that promise.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Transfiguration] divine ability again and she turned into her human form again before she was heading to the luxurious restaurant on the first floor with Yaya.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya met with Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others in the luxurious restaurant and they greeted each other.
When Li Jing and the others chatted merrily and Yaya busily ate every delicious dish on the table, Tang Li Xue absentmindedly ate what in front of her eyes.
Her mind was busy thinking about how she would handle that tiny ck box.
She was really curious and wanted to open it right now to see what its content really was but it would be a suicide move if she really did that.
In the end, she decided to open it eight dayster on the day she would evolve because she would also use her [Greater Lucky Sticker] at that time.
At least, she would get the [Greater Lucky Sticker]''s luck protection and she did not need to worry if that man will found her that day.
After eating their dinner, Tang Li Xue and Yaya came back to their room. Tang Li Xue used her free time to practice [Art of Concealment] and that weird dance moves Instructor Mei Lan gave to her for a few hours until midnight before she fell asleep with Yaya.
.....
...
.
The man wore the ck hooded coat appeared out of nowhere inside the darkroom. It looks like he used some kind of teleportation array to enter the darkroom.
He immediately kneeled down respectfully.
"Did you get that ''thing''?" The female voice askedzily.
There was actually a woman inside this dark room and she was even an excellent beauty with long violet hair.
Her face looked like polished jade, and her skin looked smooth and white. Her eyes glowed with spirit, and her extraordinarily huge b.r.e.a.s.ts looked like they would burst out of her loose white dress at any moment.
In front of her was a chessboard and she was ying alone without anyone apanied her.
Her appearance was like a normal beautiful teenage girl but surprisingly, there were four violet-colored tails behind her.
Her four tails were also not normal like the other foxes!
It seemed as if all of her tails were condensed from the violet-colored mes.
Although this woman looks young but her voice sounds so old and ancient. It was clear that this woman''s age did not match her beautiful appearance at all.
The [Umon] grade fox has two tails.
The [Rare] grade fox has three tails.
This beautiful woman has four tails so it means she already reached spirit beast level or [Epic] grade fox to be more exact!
"Honorable one, this subordinate managed to take the space pouch!" The man lowered his head and approached the woman.
The woman waved her slender white hand and the man put the space pouch onto the woman''s grasp. He retreated back to where he was before and kneeled down again.
The woman giggled happily as she stared at the man with satisfaction in her eyes.
"Good job! I will make sure to reward you heavilyter!" The woman smiled while started to ransacking the content of the space pouch.
However, after a few moments, that woman''s happy smile started to fade away and turned into a frosty expression full of fury and disappointment.
BAAAAANG~~!!!
The woman threw the space pouch onto the man''s head. The man shuddered in fear and kowtowed until his forehead hit the ground. He was too afraid to raise his face and met with the woman''s cold gaze.
"Please forgive this subordinate, Honorable One! This subordinate swears that he only found this space pouch on that envoy''s body! There is nothing else!" The man quickly exined.
"Did you check every inch of that envoy''s dead body?"
"Did you check the mouth including all of the internal organs in that envoy body?"
"Are you really sure that you already check if that envoy really did not leave anything behind after you get rid of the corpse using that poisonous liquid?!" The woman asked nonstop but each of her words was so powerful that the man felt suffocating and his heartbeat almost stopped.
"I... I am... I am so sorry, Honorable One! I wille back and check it right now!" The man kowtowed a few more times until his forehead hit the tiles and bleed.
"WAIT!" The woman stood out from her seat and slowly approached the man.
The woman smiled at the man but her eyes were so cold. It was filled with cruelty and bloodl.u.s.t that it made the man trembled and almost pissed on his pants.
The woman touched the man''s handsome face gently with her slender fingers as if she was trying to seduce him and brought her extremely beautiful face closer to him.
The woman''s s.e.xy cherry lips were so close to the man''s cheek and her voluptuous huge b.r.e.a.s.t even pressed onto the man''s shoulder.
Any man would certainly lose their rationale at this moment and pounced at this ravishingly beautiful woman then tried to vent their l.u.s.t to her voluptuous body as soon as possible.
But that was only if the man did not know this woman''s cruel nature, true identity, and strength!
If they knew it, they would never dare to have any kind of dirty thought in front of this woman!
"You can bring five more people with you but remember! No more mistakes! I only want to hear your sess this time so if I hear the otherwise... You know what will happen to you, right?" The woman moved her s.e.xy cherry lips onto that man''s right fox ear and whispered softly.
The man could even feel the woman''s warm breath on his right fox ear but it only made him feel more dread and horror.
"I... this subordinate... understand! This one... swears to make no more mistakes or... this one will die a horrible death!" The man''s voice trembled and he kept stuttering.
CRRRRRSSSSSSSSSHHHHHH~~!!!
The man almost wanted to scream out loud but he quickly swallowed back his voice and gritted his teeth to bear the pain.
All of that man''s body parts where the woman''s touched before started to melt as if the candle met with a hot me.
All the flesh on his cheeks, right ear, and right shoulder were melting until it revealing his bones.
The woman was not kidding at all. She really nned to kill the man but she was still contemting it carefully since only this man knew thest scene where he killed that envoy before.
Of course, she could also use the soul searching technique to look at the man''s memories but unfortunately, she herself could not move around freely in this Myriad Foxes Academy with her extraordinary identity.
It was just like how a prime minister would attract everyone''s attention even if he was walking on the road like everyone else.
Moreover, what she did was not only walking on the road but also snatching the others from their possession!
So in the end, she decided to give this man onest chance!
But she would still choose to kill this man if he dared to scream out loud when she punished him before.
The man did not know that his perseverance was just saved his life.
"That is your punishment for your first failure. You can go now! Remember to move more secretive! Do not let anyone know about your identity! If you get caught by someone... you know what to do, right?" The woman moved away from the man while giving him herst warning.
"Yes, Honorable One! I will make sure to kill myself before they can arrest me!" The man answered with a firm tone.
The woman sat backzily and waved her slender hand to the man signaled that the man can go now.
The man lowered his head while walking backward before his figure teleported out of the darkroom.
The woman squinted her zing purple eyes as the intense craving desire burning fiercely in the deepest part of her eyes.
It could be said she also had a tiny part on why that man could make a mistake because she did not tell any information or clue about the ''thing'' or ''item'' to that man at all.
However, she did not have a choice because that ''thing'' was simply too valuable to the point of priceless!
If she told that man about it and the information about that ''thing'' was somehow got leaked, the consequence would be more than just dire!
It would certainly bring the bloodbath into this Myriad Foxes Academy!
This was also why that cunning old fox did not take that ''thing'' personally but used the auction house as the proxy to receive that ''thing'' before its envoy took it from the auction house and on its way to deliver it to that old fox''s ce.
Unfortunately, the woman''s subordinate intercepted the envoy mid-way and nned to rob that ''thing''.
Who knows that the woman''s subordinate managed to rob the envoy but still failed to get his hands on that ''thing'' in the end!
Although, the woman already reached spirit beast level or [Epic] grade beast and unimaginably strong but she was not the peak existence yet in this Immortal World.
Even in this Myriad Foxes Academy alone, there were many dozen of foxes at the [Epic] grade spirit beast level!
But it would be different if she could evolve once more and reach [Ancient] grade spirit beast level! Or in this Immortal World, [Ancient] grade beast was called Beast God!
Why was it called Beast God?
Because [Ancient] grade spirit beast was the true peak existence in this Immortal World!
The strongest rank without any equal!
All the spirit beasts in the entire Immortal World who had sessfully evolved into Beast God could only be counted with one hand!
That showed how rare and how small the chance of them to evolve into Beast God!
It was said that every 10,000 savage beasts only 1 can evolve into a demonic beast, every 10,000 demonic beasts only 1 can evolve into a Beast Lord, every 10,000 beast lord only 1 can evolve into a spirit beast, and every 10,000 spirit beasts only 1 can evolve into a Beast God!
It means her chance to evolve into the Beast God was only at 0.0001 percent!
However, that ''thing'' could boost any spirit beast''s chance to evolve into the Beast God by 10 percent!
From 0.0001 percent to 10 percent!
Which spirit beasts would miss this chance?!
In fact, if the other beast races knew about this ''thing'', they would certainly storm over to Myriad Foxes Academy as fast as they could to snatch it!
The woman grasped her fist so tightly that her nails pierced into her smooth skin while thinking: ''No matter what happens, that ''thing'' must belong to me in the end!''

Chapter 154 - 154: Cheating Again!
.....
...
.
On the next day, Yaya woke Tang Li Xue up early like usual and both of them go to the education building together with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
On this third day, no one waste even Li jing''s team also came on time.
Maybe no one dares toete anymore was more precise since no one dares to check how many credits Instructor Mei Lan would reduce today if theye toote again.
Today''s lesson was still the same as yesterday. Instructor Mei Lan still taught them about that spine breaking dance moves.
However, one among them managed to perform that high difficulty dance perfectly today!
Unsurprisingly, that person... or rather that fox was Hei Yinghao.
Tang Li Xue did not feel that surprised either. She already knew since the very start that the Fox Sith, Hei Yinghao have very high agility stats so his body was incredibly lithe and flexible.
Moreover, he also probably has an agility boosting-type divine ability that far more advances than Tang Li Xue''s [Innate: Agility].
So it was not strange the Fox Sith, Hei Yinghao was the first one to sessfully perform that high difficulty dance moves.
Tang Li Xue probably has the highest agility among all the [Common] grade savage beasts but she was still far toockingpared with all the elite foxes in [Umon] grade.
Tang Li Xue and the others even almost dislocated some of their bones many times when they were trying to perform the dance moves.
Instructor Mei Lan''s words about today''s lesson have ended was like the most beautiful voice in their ear as they all slumped down and lied down onto the cold floor while kept breathing heavily.
Tang Li Xue and the others could only move their body after half an hour has passed and Instructor Mei Lan had already left their ss.
But their body was still hurt all over the ce and their bones let out the creaking sound every time they moved.
As usual, after their ss has ended, they went to the luxurious restaurant to have their lunch on the first floor of the residential building.
"Guys, we can''t continue like this! Tomorrow is ourst day! We will get punished if we still cannot perform that stupid dance moves by tomorrow!" Tang Li Xue said to them all with a stern tone after she ordered her food.
Unfortunately, her loli body and childish voicepletely ruined it and she sounded like a little child that was trying to look like an a.d.u.l.t.
Bing Yi cuddled Tang Li Xue''s petite body for a moment but she immediately released Tang Li Xue after she received Yaya''s murderous stare.
"Then Little Xue, do you have a way for us to ovee it?" Li Jing asked Tang Li Xue with a worried tone.
"Yes, I have one way. But I have to ask for help from all of you!" Tang Li Xue answered while frowned deeply.
The eyes of Li Jing, Bing Yi, Gan Aomiao, and Huang Hao were shining brighter when they heard Tang Li Xue''s words.
"I disagree. There is no point if you manage to perform it by using a trick. That is the same as cheating!" Hei Yinghao tried to argue.
His words only gained many hateful stares from the others including Tang Li Xue.
Hei Yinghao realized his uncaring words offended everyone but he did not care about everyone other than Tang Li Xue. So he tried tofort Tang Li Xue and apologized to her.
However, Tang Li Xue''s next words made himpletely dumbfounded.
"Everyone! If you want to perform that stupid dance moves sessfully tomorrow, then hold him tightly for me!" Tang Li Xue looked at everyone with a solemn expression then pointed her index finger at Hei Yinghao.
Bing Yi and Huang Hao stood up from their seat and moved so swiftly. Each of them restrained one of Hei Yinghao''s arms.
Li Jing also immediately chanted her Buddhist Sutra to restrain Hei Yinghao''s movement.
Gan Aomiao activated her mind control type divine ability as her purple eyes shone brighter.
Under everyone''s assault, Hei Yinghao could only helplessly submit under it.
"Yinghao, I am really sorry. But we desperately need to sacrifice you so we do not get punished tomorrow! So please forgive me!"?Tang Li Xue stared at Hei Yinghao as if she was pleading to him.
"Little Xue, there is no need for you to say anything anymore. I am willing to do anything for you! Even if you take out my heart from my chest, I will not... ARGH!" Hei Yinghao stared at Tang Li Xue full of sincerity. His words were also very touching.
Unfortunately, Bing Yi did not let him finish it and twisted his right arm violently.
Tang Li Xue borrowed the sharp dagger from the restaurant''s kitchen for a moment before returned to their table.
"Uuuh... Little Xue... actually, I am only joking with you. You... you are not really nning to take my heart out from my chest, aren''t you?" Hei Yinghao felt his heart went cold when he saw the sharp dagger in Tang Li Xue''s hand glinted coldly.
Tang Li Xue giggled at Hei Yinghao as she took out an empty bottle from her space pouch. She looked even more beautiful right now but Hei Yinghao became even more terrified by her behavior.
PUUUUFFFF~~!!!
Tang Li Xue cut Hei Yinghao''s wrist and let his blood dripped into the bottle. His wound was so shallow that it closed after a few seconds.
Tang Li Xue felt it was far from enough so she cut it even deeper this time.
After the bottle was filled to the brim with Hei Yinghao''s blood, Tang Li Xue smiled with satisfaction and told the others to release Hei Yinghao.
"Little Xue, can his blood help us perform that dance moves tomorrow?" Li Jing asked Tang Li Xue skeptically.
"No, it can''t. But I can use it to make a tool to assist us to do those dance moves tomorrow!" Tang Li Xue smiled mysteriously.
"Tool? What kind of tool?" Gan Aomiao asked timidly with her head lowered.
"Hehe... That is a secret! Just pray that I can make it sessfully today! Also, don''t forget to wait for me in front of my room tomorrow morning!" Tang Li Xue ignored their curious gaze and ate her lunch calmly with Yaya.
Hei Yinghao kept staring at Tang Li Xue with a wronged expression and it made Tang Li Xue felt really ufortable.
She apologized to him and even paid for his lunch for today.
After Tang Li Xue and Yaya ate until they were full, they quickly went back to their room.
Tang Li Xue entered her study room and took out all of her inscription tools such as all of her talisman papers, golden [Inscription Pen], andstly, the bottle filled with the Fox Sith''s blood.
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes. She started to search for a suitable rune in her mind.
''Hmm... How about this?''
[Rune of Agility] Effect: Agility +10%.
''Meh... No, this [Rune of Agility]''s effect is too small. I need something more! That dance moves only require our body flexibility. So I had to look for the rune that focused on increasing our flexibility!''
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly opened her eyes as her topaz blue eyes were glittering brightly like a pair of stars.
[Rune of Flexibility] Effect: Body Flexibility +20%, Strength -10%.
''This is it! I have 18 tries to create 5 [Talisman of Flexibility] for me and the others!'' Tang Li Xue inhaled deeply as her expression turned solemn.
She raised her focus to the maximum and calmed down her heart.
She dipped her golden [Inscription Pen] onto the bottle filled with the Fox Sith''s blood and started to inscribe the [Rune of Flexibility] onto the talisman paper.
POOOFFF~~!!!
The first try was a failure.
Tang Li Xue did not mind it at all. Her first time to inscribe any new rune was always a failure anyway.
Ding!
[Host sessfully inscribed the Talisman of Flexibility +1!]
[Inscriptionist''s proficiency has increased!]
Tang Li Xue was stunnedpletely. She never thought that she would seed in her second tries.
It usually took three to four tries for her to sessfully created one.
''Tsk... As I expect, the [Umon] grade demonic beast''s blood can enhance my sess rate! I should buy [Rare] grade demonic beast''s blood if I want to inscribe higher grade runester.'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in amazement.
She took the [Talisman of Flexibility +1] on the table and appraised its effect with her basic [All Knowing Eyes].
[Talisman of Flexibility +1]
[Effect: Body Flexibility +20%, Strength -10% for 15 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Body Flexibility +7%. Duration +5 minutes.]
"Woah, +27% Body Flexibility! With this talisman, performing that dance moves will be a piece of cake tomorrow! Uwehehehe..." Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips and continued to make the [Talisman of Flexibility +1].
Tang Li Xue only managed to create four [Talisman of Flexibility] in 18 tries in the end.
Tang Li Xue would certainly give one of these [Talisman of Flexibility] to Bing Yi since she was from her own team.
It was a pity but someone from Li Jing''s team was fated not to get these [Talisman of Flexibility].
One of these four [Talisman of Flexibility] even had the +2 effect.
[Talisman of Flexibility +2]
[Effect: Body Flexibility +20%, Strength -10% for 15 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Body Flexibility +7%. Duration +5 minutes.]
[+2 Effect: Body Flexibility +15%. Duration +10 minutes.]
Of course, Tang Li Xue would save this [Talisman of Flexibility +2] for herself so she could perform the dance moves better than anyone else tomorrow.
Tang Li Xue stopped making any talisman after she started to feel dizzy. She was even assaulted by the head-splitting headache.
Tang Li Xue stored the four [Talisman of Flexibility] and all the nk talisman papers into her space pouch.
She also threw her golden [Inscription Pen] into her system inventory and took out the [Companion Egg] from it.
This was the third day for her to drip her blood onto the [Companion Egg].
She could feel that her connection with this egg got closer every time she dripped her blood onto it.
She could even feel what this egg wanted to tell her.
''I AM HUNGRY! GIVE ME FOOD LIKE WHAT YOU GIVEN TO ME BEFORE!''
Yes, this was what this damn glutton egg wanted to tell her every time every day!
"What a headache! Do you really think the ancient disk you ate before was some cabbages that you can find easily on the street?!" Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead with her fingers to ease her headache.
But she still must give something filled with energy for this glutton egg to eat if she wanted this damn egg to hatch!
She did not have that many items like that with her so she hesitated between two things right now, the [Rare] grade beast core she got yesterday or the mid-tier spirit stone she got from the Asura Demon Sect.
Those two items were so useful for her growth that she had a hard time deciding which one to give to the damn egg.
Chapter 155 - 155: Fighting Lesson!
Chapter 155 - 155: Fighting Lesson!
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to give the [Rare] grade beast core she got yesterday to the glutton egg.
The glutton egg ate the [Rare] grade beast core happily with a loud crunching sound as if it was eating delicious potato ch.i.p.s.
While Tang Li Xue''s heart aches so much when she heard the loud crunching sounding out from the glutton egg as if what she heard was the sound of her heartbreaking.
The pressure and aura emitted out from the glutton egg got more than twice stronger after it finished eating the [Rare] grade beast core.
Although Tang Li Xue felt a great heartache when she saw the glutton egg ate the [Rare] grade beast core and her ancient stone disc but she also knew that everything will be worth it if this glutton egg hatched into a super-strong petter.
Tang Li Xue was very satisfied when she saw the glutton egg''s magnificent growth each time it ate something precious to her... Okay, it was also super painful for her, especially her wallet.
Tang Li Xue also realized it now that the glutton egg needs to eat something nutritious every three days!
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead with her slender finger while thinking: ''What a headache! What kind of food should I give to this damn egg after three dayster?''
''Oh well... Screw it! I can just give it that mid-tier spirit ster if I still did not find any suitable food by then! Oh, damn egg, I already give my best to feed you until my wallet bleeding so much. I hope you can grow into a magnificent godly beast in the end and help me fight all of my enemies together with meter!'' Tang Li Xue patted the egg gently for a few moments before tossed it back into her system inventory.
Tang Li Xue continued her routine of practicing [Art of Concealment] and the dance moves for a few hours.
After she felt exhausted, she sat on lotus position and continued her cultivation by consuming several low-tier spirit stones that were produced daily by her martial soul, the Flying Golden Fish.
The Flying Golden Fish could now produce several tens of low-tier spirit stones every day. So Tang Li Xue could still save some of it for her expenseter when she went out to the human cityter even if she was using most of it for her cultivation every day.
Yaya was still a child so she already fell asleep first before Tang Li Xue even finished her cultivation.
Tang Li Xue stopped her cultivation at midnight and went to sleep with Yaya.
.....
Tang Li Xue woke up earlier the next morning and she gave one of the [Talisman of Flexibility +1] to Bing Yi first before giving thest two talismans to Li Jing and her team.
Tang Li Xue did not know how they decided it, but Li Jing and Gan Aomiao was the one that got a hold on the [Talisman of Flexibility +1]. While Huang Hao could only cry alone and prepared himself to get punished today if he could not perform that dance moves.
They went to the education building together and pasted the talisman onto their body before they entered the ss.
The talisman vanished in instant and they could feel that their body bes a lot lighter and easier to control.
Ding!
[Talisman of Flexibility +2 has been activated!]
[Flexibility +42%, Strength -10%. Duration: 00:30:00.]
''Tsk! It increased my flexibility by 42%! No matter how much I see it, I still find it so incredible. Moreover, the negative buff like the strength -10% did not increase along with it! What a powerful cheating buff!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in amazement.
They greeted Instructor Mei Lan politely like usual after entered their ss, and they sat on their respective seat.
Not long after that, the ss lesson has started, and they began to perform the high difficulty dance moves in front of Instructor Mei Lan.
But different from usual, Tang Li Xue, Li Jing, Bing Yi, and Gan Aomiao movement was so smooth and elegant like a celestial goddess drifting on the cloud.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned a bit when she was observing each of their movement, but she sneered at them after a while.
In the end, only Huang Hao still stuck at the dance moves'' lesson among them while the others already moved on to the new lesson.
Instructor Mei Lan gave each of them a new jade slip and they touched the jade slip onto their forehead.
However, Tang Li Xue and the others'' expression turned even weirder after they read the content of the jade slip.
Because their third lesson was actually singing a song!
Yes, the jade slip''s content was actually a song!
"Instructor, I joined this Myriad Foxes Academy to be stronger! Not to learn this dance crap or sing a song! Instructor, I started to suspect that you did not want to make us stronger than you! You are afraid that we will be stronger than you, right?" Huang Hao was the first one to blow his fuse and scolded Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue was worried that Instructor Mei Lan would get angry because of Huang Hao''s offending words. She did not know why but she detected a glint of excitement in the deepest part of Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes after she heard Huang Hao''s words.
It was as if she already waited for those words a long time ago!
Tang Li Xue felt doubtful. Perhaps it was only her imagination that ran wild.
However, she had a really bad feeling about this. Even her intuition kept giving danger warning to her.
"Okay, I understand. So all of you want to start your fighting lesson today, don''t you?" Instructor Mei Lan asked while looking at them all.
All of them nodded to answer Instructor Mei Lan''s question. The firm fierce light burning in their eyes as their spirit rose to the maximum.
Only Tang Li Xue shook her head furiously like a tattle drum. She got an even more intense bad feeling when she saw Instructor Mei Lan''s smile turned much gentler than usual.
"All right! We will change our location then! Let''s go to the sparring arena on the second floor now!" Instructor Mei Lan ignored Tang Li Xue''s rejection as if she did not see Tang Li Xue''s figure at all.
Tang Li Xue has no other choice. She could only sigh and submit to the current circ.u.mstance.
''Hopefully, this bad feeling of mine is only a false rm... I only have one talisman of healing after all! I can only choose to heal one between Hei Yinghao or Bing Yi if both of them are critically injuredter.'' Tang Li Xue put her finger on her chin and started to ponder it carefully.
.....
Instructor Mei Lan brought all of them onto the second floor.
The second floor was divided into many rooms and inside that room, there was a big arena for them to spar against each other.
There were even several medical squads on this second floor that running around to treat the injured ones.
This was the first time for Tang Li Xue and the others to set their foot on this second floor. So they looked around with curiosity and excitement in their eyes.
Several other instructors and their students were staring at Tang Li Xue and the others with disdain in their eyes. But when they saw Instructor Mei Lan among them, their expression immediately turned pale, and they swiftly avoid their group as if they were a deadly gue.
When their group wanted to enter one of the rooms, they met with the red-haired instructor, Zhiruo, and her students that came out from the room beside them.
"You... why are all of you here? The Inspector ss is supposed to have one month of basic lessons in ss, right? It''s not even a week yet!" Zhiruo pointed at Tang Li Xue and the others while looked at Instructor Mei Lan in puzzlement.
"I can''t help it. They asked for the fighting lesson from me. So I decided to fulfill their request and bring them here." Instructor Mei Lan answered Zhiruo''s question and shrugged.
Zhiruo widened her eyes in surprise when she heard Mei Lan''s answer. The index finger she pointed at Tang Li Xue and the others started to tremble violently.
"You... you all asked for the fighting lesson from this dem... cough... your instructor?! I suggest you all to think about it carefully! There is no need for you all to be that anxious to suici... cough... to get strong. One month is not that long. At least you all can stay alive peacefully for that period of time or save some credits for your medical feeter." Zhiruo tried to give Tang Li Xue and the others some hints.
Tang Li Xue wanted to show her agreement about Instructor Zhiruo''s words since she also started to feel that they just made a big mistake because of their rashness.
Even Li Jing and the others also felt something was not right when they heard Zhiruo''s words.
Tang Li Xue wanted to persuade Li Jing and the others to cancel this idea and went back to their ss but before she could do that...
"It''s already toote now. How could we go back after we already reached here! Let''s enter!" Instructor Mei Lan did not give them any chance for them to going back on their words and bring all of her students into the room.
Chapter 156 - 156: Instructor Mei Lans Frightening Prowess!
Chapter 156 - 156: Instructor Mei Lan''s Frightening Prowess!
The red-haired instructor, Zhiruo offered her condolence to Tang Li Xue and the others in her heart for a moment.
"Instructor Zhiruo, which one is stronger between you and that Instructor Mei Lan?" The orange-haired little girl behind Zhiruo asked curiously.
"Yes, Instructor!
Between you and that instructor, which one is stronger?!" The other students also followed and asked curiously.
Instructor Zhiruoughed at them and answered their question: "If wepared our closebat technique, I have more than 70% confidence of winning against her! Unfortunately, she is too cunning so he will never fight against me in closebat."
"However, if she started to use her divine ability then I will certainly lose against her." Instructor Zhiruo sighed when she said a shocking truth in front of all of her students.
"Why?! What is that ck-haired instructor''s divine ability?!" Her students started to get even more curious and asked.
"That''s a secret. Remember! The divine ability is our trump card so never tell anyone else about your divine ability! But I can give you some hints hehe..." Instructor Zhiruo warned her students with a stern tone before giggling yfully again like usual.
"Although that Mei Lan looks so gentle and elegant, but in fact, she is the true sadist. With her personality, she should join the Executor ss before, but she joined the Inspector ss instead. Why? The reason is because of her divine ability." Instructor Zhiruo''s words stunned all of her students but her next words were even more shocking.
"Her divine ability is so powerful and extremely dangerous to all of her enemies, but it can also kill herrade when she used it. Her divine ability is attacking everything indiscriminately. It took her many years to master it and she already became an Instructor after she mastered it."
.....
...
.
After Tang Li Xue and the others entered the room, they were amazed again by how big this room was.
"Are all of you ready?" Instructor Mei Lan stood in the middle of the room and asked them.
"Wait a minute, Instructor Mei Lan! Which one of us will go first?" Hei Yinghao asked.
It could be said that Hei Yinghao was the true gentleman. He never wanted to do something shameless such as ganging up on one person even if that person was his teacher.
But Instructor Mei Lan did not think so...
The gentle smile that always stered on her face has faded away as she said with a cold tone: "Do not think too highly about yourselves, kid! I will quit being a teacher if all of you can evennd one hit on me and I will give you all of my credits. How about it?"
The pressure emitted from Instructor Mei Lan kept increasing. Tang Li Xue and the others'' expression started to turn solemn.
Hei Yinghao felt he said something that he should not say but it was already toote for him to correct it.
"Sparring Room Number 4611, choosing arena: Colosseum." Instructor Mei Lan shouted.
Their surrounding scene started to distort and it changed from the closed room into the open colosseum after a while!
"Let''s begin! Don''t worry I will be gentle and suppress my strength to your level!" Instructor Mei Lan sneered at them.
"Uuhhh... so the six of us will fight against Instructor Mei Lan alone?!" Tang Li Xue tried to ask but Instructor Mei Lan''s figure already vanished from where she stood before and appeared in front of Gan Aomiao.
Instructor Mei Lan grabbed Gan Aomiao''s head and pushed it backward.
Gan Aomiao''s body fell backward and the back of her head smashed onto the hard colosseum''s floor!
BOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
The colosseum''s floor shook violently and cracks started to spread everywhere.
That loud voice of Gan Aomiao''s head smashed on to the hard floor was like a wakeup call them.
Tang Li Xue and the others immediately took their battle stance and activated their respective divine ability.
Tang Li Xue''s petite figure turned invisible the moment she activated her [Ethereal Form].
Huang Hao''s body split into ten when he used his [Shadow Clones] divine ability.
Yaya used her [Wind Barrier] to protect herself.
Bing Yi also activated her freezing domain so Instructor Mei Lan could not get close to her.
Li Jing chanted her Buddhist Sutra, and her beautiful figure was covered by a thick golden barrier.
The Fox Sith, Hei Yinghao lowered his body and took the crouching stance. His handsome figure vanished from everyone''s view in the next moment.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
Hei Yinghao started to exchange countless moves with Instructor Mei Lan in only a few seconds!
Both of them were moving around the colosseum while kept exchanging moves. Their speed was extremely fast that they left many afterimages along their way.
"Hmm... Not bad! As I expect from the former candidate of the Elite ss! You have rich fighting experience, solid battle style, and you know how to use strength properly. It would be a bit troublesome if I fight with you in your fox form but now..." Instructor Mei Lan praised Hei Yinghao but she did not stop her attacks at all.
"Is there any difference fighting in fox form or human form other than our reduced strength in human form?" Hei Yinghao raised his eyebrow and asked in curiosity but his movement was still so smooth like flowing water. He kept defending all of Instructor Mei Lan''s attacks while counterattacking with great precision.
"Of course, it''s different! For example, when you are in your fox form, you only need to protect your head when you are fighting from the front like this. But if you are in your human form, you must also protect your... bottom!" After exined, Instructor Mei Lan kicked Hei Yinghao''s feet.
Hei Yinghao''s feet slipped backward while his body fell forward! But Hei Yinghao also has fast reaction speed so he immediately crossed his arms to protect his face from Instructor Mei Lan''s next attack.
But Instructor Mei Lan has a faster fast reaction speed than him. She instantly changed her fist attack to elbow thrust when Hei Yinghao tried to defend!
Her elbow thrust went through Hei Yinghao''s cross arm defense from below and smashed on his neck!
Hei Yinghao coughed out several mouthfuls of blood but he did not give up and kept exchanging attacks with Instructor Mei Lan.
However, Instructor Mei Lan started to change her attack pattern.?She began to mix low kick and mid kick.
Below, up, up, below, up, below, mid, below, up, mid, up, up, below...
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
Instructor Mei Lan almostbo''ed Hei Yinghao to death with her perfect attacksbination.
Hei Yinghao''s true form was a tiny sized fox so he never almost faced the attack from below!
Instructor Mei Lan used this fact against him. Moreover, she also mixed her kicks and punches with it!
But Tang Li Xue appeared out of nowhere behind Instructor Mei Lan and shed her sharp ws onto Instructor Mei Lan''s back.
Instructor Mei Lan kicked Tang Li Xue away before her sharp ws could hit Instructor Mei Lan.
" Li Jing, now!" Tang Li Xue shouted.
Instructor Mei Lan realized that Tang Li Xue did not really n to attack her but only nned to pull Hei Yinghao away from her.
"Om Mani Padme Hum!" The golden light around Li Jing shone even brighter than ever.
Instructor Mei Lan felt her body turn rigid as the golden light enveloped her entire body.
Huang Hao and all of his clones did not want to miss this chance and pounced to Instructor Mei Lan at once!
Instructor Mei Lan used a full roundhouse kick with such great precision and speed. Itnded right on Huang Hao and his clones'' faces!
That powerful roundhouse kick turned all of Huang Hao''s shadow clones back to nothing and even made the real Huang Hao fell unconscious.
"Dammit! How could she still move around like that after receiving Li Jing''s best restriction spell?!" Tang Li Xue almost could not believe it. If she did not see Li Jing''s pale face, she would think that Li Jing did not use her best move and still holding back.
CRACKLE... CRACKLE... CRACKLE...
Bing Yi already closed her distance to Instructor Mei Lan and her freezing domain kept activating. Yaya also followed beside Bing Yi and used her [Gale Step].
Instructor Mei Lan''s body started to froze under Bing Yi''s freezing domain!
Although Bing Yi and Yaya often argue with each other but Tang Li Xue must admit it that their ability worked the best when they were together.
Bing Yi''s freezing domain and Yaya''s wind control worked so perfectly together.
Wind and ice blended perfectly in harmony and the freezing domain kept spreading like a blizzard!
BWOOOOOSSSHH~~!!!
However, Tang Li Xue knew that Yaya was still holding back her best move!
"Yaya! Use [Cyclone sh] and imbued it with the ice power from Bing Yi!" Tang Li Xue used her connection with Yaya and whispered to her.
Yaya nodded secretly to Tang Li Xue and raised her tiny arm high. She started topress her wind power onto her tiny arm and swung it down violently after a few seconds of charging.
[Cyclone sh] imbued with the power of wind and ice flew toward Instructor Mei Lan!
Tang Li Xue started to regret it. She felt she and Yaya were overdoing it.
What if they identally killed Instructor Mei Lan?
But it was already toote.
The powerful [Cyclone sh] has already been fired and there was no way to take it back.
BAAAAAAAANG~~!!!
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Bing Yi dropped their jaw in shock.
Bing Yi''s freezing domain and Yaya''s [Cyclone sh] has been shattered into countless specks of crystal dust.
The eyes of Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and the others were filled with helplessness and disbelief.
Instructor Mei Lan pped her hands in amazement and said: "Thatst move is not bad. Hm... All of you already finished, right? Now, it''s my turn."
Instructor Mei Lan raised her right palm above her chest. She pressed her thumb against her middle finger.
Yes, it was a motion to snapping her finger!
"All of you must want to know what my divine ability is, right? Then I will let you all catch a tiny glimpse of it." Instructor Mei Lan chuckled at them and...
CLAAAACKKK~~!!!
She snapped her finger.
Chapter 157 - 157: Hell Level Fighting Lesson with the Demon Herself!
Chapter 157 - 157: Hell Level Fighting Lesson with the Demon Herself!
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her eyes, but she immediately felt nauseous and dizzy.
She even puked out several times when she tried to get up.
Tang Li Xue realized after she looked at the ground below her that what she puked out was her blood not the food in her stomach.
"Oh, you are the first one to regain your consciousness. It seems you have regeneration type ability. That''s good. I can get rougher with you then."
Tang Li Xue raised her head to look at where that sound came from and her gaze met with Instructor Mei Lan that was still smiling gently like always.
Tang Li Xue looked around her only to find that Bing Yi, Li Jing, Yaya, and the others fell unconscious with a pale face.
Instructor Mei Lan stepped closer to Tang Li Xue and threw a heavy punch onto her cute childish face.
Tang Li Xue bit her tongue to clear her dizziness and she immediately activated her [Ethereal Form].
Her petite figure vanished into thin air, and Instructor Mei Lan''s fist passed through her head like punching a cloud.
Instructor Mei Lan widened her eyes in surprise. She never thought Tang Li Xue''s stealth-type divine ability was so powerful that it could allow her to pass through any solid object like this.
The most surprising fact was that she got this powerful divine ability at savage beast level!
It made Instructor Mei Lan felt curious and excited to see what divine ability that she would get when she evolved onto a demonic beastter.
It wasmon knowledge for all the beasts that every time they evolve, they would certainly get more powerful divine ability than thest.
Of course, that only applied if they got the divine ability since not all evolved beasts will certainly get a new divine ability.
Instructor Mei Lan admired Tang Li Xue''s divine ability but it did not mean she would hold back her attack.
Instructor Mei Lan''s fist turned back onto snapping fingers motion and she snapped her fingers again.
CLAAAACK~~!!!
Tang Li Xue felt her eardrum rattled violently. Her mind was blown away, and her brain turned into mush.
She was forced out from her [Ethereal Form] by this ear-shattering sound, and her body limply fell slowly forward.
Instructor Mei Lan did not let Tang Li Xue fell unconscious just like that, she used a flying knee and smashed Tang Li Xue''s beautiful face until her petite body spun several times on mid-air.
Tang Li Xue woke up again, and her mind cleared up in an instant because of the intense pain she felt from her face.
Instructor Mei Lan kicked Tang Li Xue again with her other foot before Tang Li Xue''s body could evennd on the ground.
BAAAANG~!!!
Hei Yinghao jumped in front of Tang Li Xue on time and defended Instructor Mei Lan''s kick with both of his arms.
Hei Yinghao took several steps backward and he almost crashed onto Tang Li Xue. His hands went numb from Instructor Mei Lan''s powerful kick.
"I will not let you hurt Little Xue as long as I am still alive!" Hei Yinghao dered bravely and his aura started to increase sharply.
His dark green eyes also turned into crimson red.
"Really? Then I want to see if you can still say the same after I pounded your handsome face over and over againter!" Instructor Mei Lan said leisurely whileughing at Hei Yinghao''s resolve.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in anger and she shouted in mind: ''Yaya! Divine Possession!''
The nearby Yaya was still unconscious but her tiny body turned into a green light and flew toward Tang Li Xue.
When a green light entered Tang Li Xue''s forehead, her topaz blue eyes turned into emerald green.
Two pairs of beautiful rainbow-colored crystal-like fairy wings sprouted from her back.
Before Tang Li Xue made her move, Hei Yinghao already started to attack Instructor Mei Lan''s first.
It was clear that Hei Yinghao used his hidden divine ability to boost his overall stats by many folds.
However, Tang Li Xue in her Divine Possession with Yaya was not a pushover either!
Especially, with the boost from the [Wind God''s Endowment] that released her from all kinds of speed limitation!
Tang Li Xue activated her [Wind Barrier], [Gale Step], and her [Golden Body] at the same time to get maximum protection and speed!
Then she activated her [Ethereal Form] and her body vanished into thin air.
Hei Yinghao was still busy exchanging moves with Instructor Mei Lan right now. His current speed, strength, and reflexes reached an unimaginable level.
His speed alone was almost equal with Tang Li Xue''s speed when she was in her Divine Possession mode with Yaya.
Tang Li Xue appeared behind Instructor Mei Lan out of nowhere like a ghost and the twelve [Wind Swords] that hovering above her head shed several times in session at once!
Hei Yinghao attacked from the front while Tang Li Xue attacked from behind. Their teamwork andbination were so perfect that they leave no room for Instructor Mei Lan to run or dodge!
Both of them were so sure that they could defeat Instructor Mei Lan this time... or at least, they thought so.
Unfortunately, the reality was far from what they imagined.
CLAAAACK~~!!!
An ear-splitting sound of finger-snapping shattered their eardrum and rattled their internal organs. It also repelled both of them away along with Tang Li Xue''s twelve [Wind Swords]!
It was as if a solid barrier of sound crashed onto them and pushed both of them away.
''This is impossible! How could she control her sound type divine ability to that level?!'' Tang Li Xue screamed in disbelief inside her mind.
Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao coughed out several mouthfuls of blood again after being pushed several meters backward.
Tang Li Xue looked at Hei Yinghao and nodded toward him.
Tang Li Xue did not know if Hei Yinghao understood her hints or not. But in short, she wanted to use one big move to finish this battle as quickly as possible.
Instructor Mei Lan''s sound-type divine ability was too unpredictable and dangerous. It waspletely unblockable too.
The problem was not about their sharp sense of hearing. Even if they shut their sense of hearing, Instructor Mei Lan''s sound-type divine ability could still attack and destroy their internal organs.
The key was the intense vibration created by her sound-type divine ability!
Tang Li Xue never thought that she was smart enough to think about a way to counter Instructor Mei Lan''s sound-type divine ability so she nned to defeat her in one single big move!
Tang Li Xue raised her right hand high and swung it down forcefully.
[Cyclone sh]!
A giant tall tornado condensed from countless [Wind des] shot forward bringing the great destruction on its wake!
Hei Yinghao also used his strongest move in tandem with Tang Li Xue.
[Destruction Force]!
Hei Yinghao released a ck giant ball condensed from all of his strength.
It looked simple, but the ck giant ball destroyed everything it touched into nothingness! Even the solid ground or stone pir it touched was also not spared by it.
Once again, Tang Li Xue felt they were overdoing it again this time. What if they identally killed Instructor Mei Lan for real this time?
Tang Li Xue started to frown deeper and feel extremely worried about Instructor Mei Lan''s safety.
"Hmm... Really not bad! No, it''s quite good this time. This kind of attack will probably enough to critically injure an Elite student from Elite ss. What a pity..." Instructor Mei Lan''s chuckled while raising both of her hands in front of her chest.
CLAAAAAAAAPPPP~~!!!
Yes, she did not snap her fingers this time. She pped her hands!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
The earth-shattering sound from her pped her hands this time were many times louder and lethal than when she was snapping her fingers before!
Hei Yinghao''s [Destruction Force] and Tang Li Xue''s [Cyclone sh] exploded the moment it met with the destructive vibration from Instructor Mei Lan''s sound-type divine ability!
Hei Yinghao and Tang Li Xue''s body collided violently with the destructive vibration, and almost all the bones in their bodies shattered because of it.
That vibration force even ripped their veins and severely injured their internal organs.
Both of them flew backward like a cannon bullet and crashed onto many stone pirs before they smashed onto the colosseum''s wall and their body embedded deeply into it.
Their injuries were too fatal this time and they fell unconscious in an instant.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue jumped up and took her battle stance immediately the moment she opened her eyes.
However, she found herself no longer in the arena anymore but inside some sort of medical ward, and currently, she stood on the top of her bed.
The surrounding people... or rather the surrounding foxes stared at her with a weird expression.
Tang Li Xue blushed in embarrassment, and she lied down back on her bed.
A few minutes after that, Hei Yinghao also did what she does before. He jumped up the moment he opened his eyes and took his battle stance on the top of his bed. He looked around in confusion for a few moments and blushed in embarrassment too just like her before.
Tang Li Xue did not know what this medical department did to them but theypletely recovered in a few hours after the deathly sparring.
"It''s good that all of you are still alive. But you all don''t need to worry. We will continue to do this tomorrow too... or EVERY DAY to be more precise! Today''s ss is over. All of you can go home now." Instructor Mei Lan giggled at them and left them alone.
Tang Li Xue and the others werepletely dumbfounded when they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
Then they locked their fierce stare onto Huang Hao. Their stare was full of resentment and fury.
"How about we have one more round before we are going home? It will be us versus an idiot stupid arrogant yellow fox!" It was hard to believe that these words came from the gentle and noble, Li Jing.
"AGREEED!!!" All of them answered at the same time. Only Huang Hao was still looking at them stupidly as if he still did not get it why we were angry at him.
Chapter 158 - 158: How to Use the [Mirror of the Moon] Correctly!
Chapter 158 - 158: How to Use the [Mirror of the Moon] Correctly!
Although, Tang Li Xue almost died in the fighting lesson against Instructor Mei Lan today, but she must admit the progress she made was tremendous, and she managed to realize many things.
For example on how to use her [Mirror of the Moon] divine ability correctly. This was the most important harvest and she managed to grasp the crucial clue on how to use it in an optimum way.
On contrary to what everyone was felt, she even started looking forward to tomorrow''s fighting lesson because of it.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the others went to the luxurious restaurant on the first floor of the residential building like usual to eat their lunch.
After they were full, Tang Li Xue brought Yaya back to their room to inscribe a few talismans as usual.
Tang Li Xue focused on making [Talisman of Healing] today. She had a feeling that this [Talisman of Healing] can be sold more expensive than [Talisman of Dash].
Tang Li Xue''s luck was not bad today and she managed to create three [Talisman of Healing +1] in 18 tries.
[Talisman of Healing +1]
[Effect: Activated Self-Healing skill. (Heal 1% of maximum HP every 10 seconds for 100 seconds.)]
[+1 Effect: Heal +0.5% of maximum HP every 10 seconds. Duration +30 seconds.]
Of course, it was not as good as [Talisman of Healing +2] but it still could heal almost 20% of maximum HP in 130 seconds.
Moreover, different from any pill, ointment, or medicine where they must take a rest after consumed it, they could use this [Talisman of Healing + 1] while kept engaging in the middle of the fierce battle or kept running away from the danger!
Even her (Level 3: Beginner) Inscriptionist level had increased to (Level 4: Beginner). Every time her Inscriptionist''s level increased her sess chance on creating the talisman also increasing.
Tang Li Xue believed that her sess percentage could reach 100%ter if her Inscriptionist level reached a high level, especially when her golden [Inscription Pen] also increased that sess percentage significantly.
Tang Li Xue shoved all of her [Talisman of Healing + 1] into her space pouch and went to the auction house with Yaya.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had expected before, she managed to sell one [Talisman of Healing + 1] for more than 1,000 credits, more expensive than her [Talisman of Dash +1] that could only be sold for around 600 credits.
After three hours, she managed to sell the three of her [Talisman of Healing + 1] for 3,520 credits. She got 2,816 credits after the auction house cut 20% from it for the fee.
Tang Li Xue was afraid that the man from yesterday would still be loitering around that road, so she took a quite long detour and immediately ran back to the residential building as fast as possible.
After returning into her room, Tang Li Xue continued her usual routine of dripping her blood onto the glutton egg, consuming several low-tier spirit stones to increase her cultivation, and training her [Art of Concealment] until midnight before sleeping.
.....
...
.
On the next morning in the ss, Instructor Mei Lan asked them to perform that extremely difficult dance moves once more but all of them failed miserably this time because they did not have the [Talisman of Flexibility] buff anymore like yesterday.
Instructor Mei Lan doubled their punishment because of their cheating and deduced 600 credits from each of them. It made Li Jing and the others cried in despair while begged Instructor Mei Lan to decrease their punishment but as usual, the sadist Instructor Mei Lan only giggled at them.
Only Tang Li Xue could still remain calm and unmoved. She still has more than 2,500 credits in her bronze card even after Instructor Mei Lan deduced?600 credits from her as punishment.
After reviewed their dance moves for an hour, Instructor Mei Lan continued her lesson on how to sing a song but no one dared to say anything this time.
However, Instructor Mei Lan exined why they need to learn how to sing a song this time. Apparently, that was to help them ustomed to how to speak using the correct tone and intonation so it did not sounds so clunky.
After a few hours of the singing lesson, Instructor Mei Lan brought all of them to the second floor again, and they entered the arena just like yesterday.
"Sparring Room Number 3631, choosing arena: Colosseum." Instructor Mei Lan shouted.
Their surrounding scene changed from the closed room into the open colosseum.
Tang Li Xue told Yaya to wait for her at the corner of the colosseum and she did not need to join their fighting lesson this time.
Yaya put on her wronged expression. She pouted and even threw a tantrum while begging for Tang Li Xue to let her join but Tang Li Xue still remained firm on her choice.
In the end, Yaya decided to follow what Tang Li Xue told her with heavy-hearted and wait for her at the corner of the colosseum.
"Why did you do that? Are you afraid that she will get hurt?" Instructor Mei Lan asked Tang Li Xue with a gentle smile on her face.
"No, I just feel that I can get stronger even faster if I don''t rely on Yaya''s power to boost me whenever things get worse." Tang Li Xue answered seriously and a glint of determination shone from the deepest part of her topaz blue eyes.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded her head and praised Tang Li Xue silently in her heart. Instructor Mei Lan stopped chatting with Tang Li Xue and took her battle stance.
"Come on, you all don''t need to be shy! Let''s begin! This sister will make sure to entertain you all." Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and waved her palm at them as if she was trying to taunt them.
Li Jing, Huang Hao, and the others did not hesitate like yesterday and activated their respective divine ability in an instant but only Tang Li Xue did something baffling.
Tang Li Xue''s petite figure was split into seven!?Although, he could only create six shadow clones and a little bitckingpared to Huang Hao who could create nine shadow clones at once, but it was still enough to make them surprised.
How could Tang Li Xue use Huang Hao''s divine ability?!
Huang Hao blended all with his nine shadow clones and dashed onto Instructor Mei Lan together with Hei Yinghao.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and her petite figure turned invisible but she ordered all of her shadow clones to attack Instructor Mei Lan with Huang Hao and Hei Yinghao.
Seventeen people attacked Instructor Mei Lan at once from all directions!
Even Instructor Mei Lan''s expression turned a bit serious this time. She defended all of Hei Yinghao''s relentless attacks while easily dispersed all of Tang Li Xue and Huang Hao brittle shadow clones.
''Hmm... This [Shadow Clones] divine ability is not bad but a bit too fragile. Let''s try something else!'' Tang Li Xue thought excitedly.
Gan Aomiao already used her mind control divine ability to Instructor Mei Lan but Instructor Mei Lan''s soul was too strong so she could not invade it at all.
Copy Start!
Name: Mind Hacking
Type: Divine Ability
Copy Completed!
It did not take even one second for Tang Li Xue topletely copy Gan Aomiao''s divine ability.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining with purple light when she activated the [Mind Hacking] to attack Instructor Mei Lan''s mind.
Instructor Mei Lan felt dizzy and her vision also turned a bit blurry. Hei Yinghao''s ws even almost grazed her face. Fortunately, she took one step backward on time to dodge it.
When one mind control ability user superimposed with the other mind control user, the effect was not as simple as one plus one equal to two!
The effect would be multiplied by several times, especially if both of them were using the same divine ability!
Instructor Mei Lan kicked Hei Yinghao away and disengaged with him then started to targeting Gan Aomiao since she thought it was all because of Gan Aomiao''s divine ability alone.
Gan Aomiao did not have any skill at closebat so she was subdued by Instructor Mei Lan in a few breathes.
Tang Li Xue''s soul was far weaker than Gan Aomiao, so her [Mind Hacking] divine ability could no longer affect Instructor Mei Lan after Gan Aomiao was beaten up until unconscious.
''So mind control type divine ability can superimpose on each other and amplified by many times? Interesting! Let''s try something else.'' Tang Li Xueughed like a new child that got a new toy and she copied Li Jing''s divine ability this time.
Li Jing''s divine ability was called [Buddhist Hymn]. It brought out the hidden effect of each Buddhist Sutra like suppressing living beings or exorcising evil spirits.
It was a really powerful divine ability but unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not know any Buddhist Sutra so she could not use this divine ability at all.
So Tang Li Xue immediately switched to the other one and copied Bing Yi''s divine ability.
Copy Start!
Name: Freezing Field
Type: Divine Ability
Copy Completed!
Tang Li Xueughed mischievously as she approached Instructor Mei Lan that was still busily locked in closebat with Hei Yinghao from behind.
Tang Li Xue turned off her [Ethereal Form] and used Bing Yi''s divine ability which she had just copied!
[Freezing Field] active!
CRACKLE... CRACKLE... CRACKLE...
Tang Li Xue''s [Freezing Field] was not as strong as Bing Yi but it was enough to slow down Instructor Mei Lan for a moment.
Bing Yi also did not miss this chance and charging toward Instructor Mei Lan then activating her own [Freezing Field]!
The effect of two [Freezing Field] superimposed and its freezing power increased by several folds!
Li Jing also took this chance to use her most powerful immobilizing sutra on Instructor Mei Lan.
BAAAANG! BAAAANG! BAAAANG!
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao managed tond their powerful strike on Instructor Mei Lan''s body!
Or they thought so...
But before their powerful strike could hit Instructor Mei Lan''s body, a shrill deafening whistle resounded and shattered their [Freezing Field]''s effect along with Li Jing''s powerful immobilizing spell!
The intense vibration from the sound knocked them several tens of meters away. Not only it made them coughed out several mouthfuls of blood, it even severely injured their internal organs and shattering several of their bones.
However, Tang Li Xue did not feel upset or disappointed at all but she smiled instead.
''I GOT IT! Hehehe...''?Tang Li Xue sneered happily with her mouth full of blood.
Copy Start!
Name: Demonic Tune
Type: Divine Ability
Copy Completed!
Chapter 159 - 159: Heavenly Sound, Demonic Tune!
Chapter 159 - 159: Heavenly Sound, Demonic Tune!
Li Jing used her most powerful immobilizing spell, and usually, the stronger the spell, the greater the bacsh the user would receive if it failed.
Li Jing already fell unconscious the moment when her spell was failed to bind Instructor Mei Lan, and she even assaulted by a powerful sound attack that made her condition worsened.
Just like yesterday, only Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao could still stand up and continue to fight.
Hei Yinghao has a tough body. All of his divine abilities were specialized for closebat battle so it increased his tenaciousness. The damage he received from Instructor Mei Lan''s attack was also the least among everyone.
As for Tang Li Xue, if she did not activate her [Golden Body] protection at thest moment before the powerful sound attack sted her away, her condition would probably the same as Huang Hao and Bing Yi now.
"Hei, Silly Fox! Do like what you did yesterday! I will cover your back!" Tang Li Xue used her [Telepathy] to tell Hei Yinghao.
Hei Yinghao only nodded to Tang Li Xue then he activated his power boost type divine ability. His dark green eyes turned crimson red, and his momentum kept climbing up higher and higher.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
Hei Yinghao pounced to Instructor Mei Lan with the lightning speed that could not be seen with n.a.k.e.d eyes.
He traded countless moves with Instructor Mei Lan in only a few seconds. The terrible shockwave from their fighting was spreading around the colosseum. It was even destroying the solid floor and nearby pirs.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched a bit when she saw Hei Yinghao and Instructor Mei Lan fighting in close rangebat.
Although, she said something cool like ''I will cover your back!'' but how could she cover him when they were fighting at this insane speed.
This also made Tang Li Xue realize how impressive her [Divine Possession] with Yaya was.
She was even a bit faster than both of them yesterday after she entered her [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya!
However, it also reminded her that she could not be dependent on Yaya''s power. She needs to improve herself more so she could be a worthy person for Yaya.
BOOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
Hei Yinghao''s body was sted away by Instructor Mei Lan''s powerful kick.
Hei Yinghao flipped his body on the mid-air and readied his big move the [Destruction Force] while at it.
The destructive force capable of destroying everything it touched kept .u.mting on Hei Yinghao''s palm.
The moment hended on the ground, Hei Yinghao hurled the ck giant ballpressed from the destructive force toward Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan only smiled gently as always and put on her snapping finger motion.
CLAAACK~~!!!
A deafening sound of finger-snapping was spreading through the entire colosseum carrying the frightening destructive vibration along with it!
Tang Li Xue already stood closer to Instructor Mei Lanpared with Hei Yinghao, who had already been shoved several tens of meters away by Instructor Mei Lan''s powerful kick before, so she only needs to raise both of her hands and...
CLAAAAAAAAAAPPPP~~!!!
pped both of her palms as strong as she could while at the same time activated the [Demonic Tune] divine ability, which she copied from Instructor Mei Lan before!
Two powerful vibrations were spreading through the air and shing violently like the sound of thunder striking on each other!
Surprisingly, the two powerful vibrations actually canceled each other after shing!
''It works! Go, silly fox! Defeat her!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes brightened like a pair of beautiful blue stars, and she immediately took a pping hands stance once more.
If Instructor Mei Lan snapped her finger once more, she nned to cancel the intense vibration from it once again with pping her hands like before.
Instructor Mei Lan did not panic at all. She giggled in satisfaction while staring at Tang Li Xue with appreciation in her obsidian ck eyes.
When Hei Yinghao''s [Destruction Force] only a few inches from touching Instructor Mei Lan''s body, she raised both of her hands and both of them took the snapping finger motion.
CLAAACK~~!!! BAAAAAANG~~!!!
The first snapping finger''s sound shattered Hei Yinghao''s [Destruction Force] easily. It was like the ck ballpressed from the destructive force was just a ck balloon when it met with Instructor Mei Lan''s sound attack.
Tang Li Xue pped her hands while activating the [Demonic Tune] to attack Instructor Mei Lan''s with the destructive vibration from the sound attack, but it canceled by Instructor Mei Lan''s second finger snapping.
Instructor Mei Lan''s slender figure vanished from where she stood before, and she appeared right in front of Tang Li Xue in the next moment.
"The way you use your copy type divine ability is only a half correct. There are many ways to use our divine abilities. ording to how you use it and the situation when you use it, our divine abilities can bring us a nice surprise. For example when I use my divine ability like this!" Instructor Mei Lan threw her palm strike toward Tang Li Xue.
But Hei Yinghao already stood in front of Tang Li Xue to protect her from Instructor Mei Lan''s palm strike!
He even threw his right fist using all of his strength to meet with Instructor Mei Lan''s palm strike.
BOOOOOOOOOOM~~!!!
The sound when their strike met each other was abnormally earth-shattering deafening, and it created far more powerful vibration than when Instructor Mei Lan used her finger-snapping before.
The super powerful vibration shattered Hei Yinghao''s right fist and all of the bones in his body.
It even struck Tang Li Xue that stood behind Hei Yinghao and sted many of her vital organs.
''F*ck it! She can even use it like this?! Then why she needs to snap her fingers and pping her hands before?!'' Tang Li Xue''s mind and consciousness faded away before she could even finish her cursing.
Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao both passed out almost at the same time because of their fatal injuries.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue''s long eyshes fluttered slightly and she slowly opened her eyes.
Unsurprisingly, she found herself lied down on the soft bed in the medical ward just like yesterday along with Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others.
Yaya was still fallen asleepfortably beside her pillow.
"Stealth-type divine ability which made you able to pass through any object and copy-type divine ability which can copy any kind of divine ability. It is hard to believe that you are still a savage beast but you already have two powerful divine abilities." Instructor Mei Lan''s sweet gentle voices entered Tang Li Xue''s ears.
Tang Li Xue tilted her head to her right side and saw Instructor Mei Lan sit with her legs crossed beside the bed.
"I am really curious about how strong you will be after you evolved into a demonic beast and what kind of divine ability you will getter!" Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently, while kept staring at Tang Li Xue full of curiosity.
"Instructor Lan, would we definitely get a stronger divine ability each time we evolve into a higher grade?" Tang Li Xue asked.
"Of course! For example are my divine abilities. When I evolve into a demonic beast, I got a divine ability called [Heavenly Sound], which can amplify the volume of the sound by many folds. When I evolve into a Beast Lord, I got the divine ability called [Demonic Tune], which can amplify the vibration from the sound by many folds. What will happen if I use both of them at once?" Instructor Mei Lan exined to Tang Li Xue patiently.
Tang Li Xue''s body shuddered slightly when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
''So this is why her divine ability was so horrifying! She used two divine abilities that can superimpose each other at once!'' Tang Li Xue thought carefully.
She always thought that divine ability''s strength and OP-ness was heavily depending on the grade and tier like what she read from the [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] before.
But she realized now that she needs to fix her way of thinking. There were so many ways to improve how she used her divine ability.
Tang Li Xue also started to ponder whether she will tell Instructor Mei Lan about her evolution 1 week from now or not.
However, she decided to tell Instructor Mei Lan now because she needs an open ce under the moonlight where no one can track her since she nned to open the ck tiny box on that day too.
"You can evolve into a demonic beast one week from now?!" Instructor Mei Lan raise her eyebrows and asked Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head to answer Instructor Men Lan''s question.
"No problem. I will reserve an evolution altar for you next week. Do you any requirements for it?" Instructor Men Lan''s obsidian ck eyes shone brighter and asked Tang Li Xue excitedly.
"Instructor Lan, I want an evolution altar in the open space under the moonlight, and I also want it to be covered by the protection formation to prevent it from being detected from outside. Can you please find that kind of ce for me? Please~~" Tang Li Xue begged Instructor Mei Lan with a spoiled tone.
Because she had no other choice, only Instructor Mei Lan could help her find it or set this kind of ce for her.
"Okay, that''s not a problem. But I have to be there to observe you because no one will know what kind of danger you will face when you evolveter. If I am there, I can help to protect you and prevent any mistake from happening." Instructor Mei Lan thought for a while and agreed with Tang Li Xue''s request.
Tang Li Xue frowned and thought about it carefully when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s condition. She had too many secrets and she did not want Instructor Mei Lan to saw it.
Instructor Mei Lan knew why Tang Li Xue was hesitating.
Which individual did not have their secrets?
Moreover, for Tang Li Xue to have two powerful divine abilities while she was still in her savage beast level, she must have a big secret behind it, and she did not want Instructor Mei Lan to find out about it.
Instructor Mei Lan understood that very well, but she still did not want to take any risk and put her student in danger because of it.
"I, [Heavenly Sound Fox], Mei Lan swear in the name of Beast God to never have any bad intention toward all of my students! I swear to protect my student, Tang Li Xue with my life when she evolves seven days from now and will never let anything bad happen to her, or I will be struck to death by lightning and never be able to reincarnate! How about it? Is this enough to make you believe me?" Instructor Mei Lan giggled leisurely and asked Tang Li Xue with a teasing tone.
Tang Li Xue was very moved by Instructor Mei Lan''s vow.?She never thought Instructor Mei Lan would do that for her.
If Instructor Mei Lan has any bad intention toward Tang Li Xue, she could do it anytime. She could even secretly detained Tang Li Xue and tortured Tang Li Xue to tell her everything.
Instructor Mei Lan also did not need to help Tang Li Xue at all. She could also angry at Tang Li Xue and refused to help Tang Li Xue.
But Instructor Mei Lan did not do any of that. She even said the cruel vow to herself like that only to make Tang Li Xue believe in her!
All of these just so she could protect Tang Li Xue so Tang Li Xue could evolve safelyter!
The people Tang Li Xue fully trusted were limited.
She only trusted her Big Brother in her previous life.
In this current world, she only fully trusted the fake dragon and Yaya.
However, right now, Instructor Mei Lan officially became the fourth person Tang Li Xue trust the most!
Chapter 160 - 160: Preparation before Evolution!
Chapter 160 - 160: Preparation before Evolution!
"Instructor Mei Lan... I... I am so sorry! I..." Tang Li Xue tried to apologize to Instructor Mei Lan with teary eyes, but Instructor Mei Lan interrupted before she could finish it.
"Ssshhh... You do not need to apologize to me. You are not my first student and certainly will not be thest. It is already every instructor and teacher''s job to always protect their students until they are matured." Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently like always as she wiped Tang Li Xue''s tears with her slender fingers.
Afterforted Tang Li Xue for a few minutes, Instructor Mei Lan dismissed their ss for today and gave Tang Li Xue 10,000 credits so Tang Li Xue could buy everything she needs as the preparation for her evolution seven dayster.
Li Jing, Huang Hao, and the others'' eyes were green with envy when they watched Instructor Mei Lan transferred 10,000 credits to Tang Li Xue.
However, Instructor Mei Lanforted them too by saying they will get more than that when they evolve into Beast Lord Rank in the future.
Tang Li Xue woke Yaya up and brought her back with the others to the residential building. They took their lunch at the luxurious restaurant on the first floor as usual.
Of course, Tang Li Xue treated them all for lunch since she had so many credits in her bronze card today.
After eating their lunch until they were full, Tang Li Xue and Yaya went back to their room while Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others went to the mission hall to take some E-grade missions.
Tang Li Xue entered her study room as usual to inscribe some talismans, but today she wanted to try something different.
Tang Li Xue remembered very clearly the unbearable itchiness she felt when she evolved from the [Fox Cub] into [Moon Fox] before, and she certainly did not want to feel it anymoreter.
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes and searching for the rune that can relieve the itchiness or pain in her mind, so she did not need to feel any pain or itchinesster when she evolves!
After a few minutes, Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes and she managed to find one rune that fit her criteria.
[Rune of Numbness]: Numbing the sense of pain, -50% agility, -50% perception.
Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction. This rune was very suitable for her to use when she evolvester since it did not make herpletely immobilized like the [Rune of Paralyze] or the [Rune of Stun].
Who knows that her luck was really bad today!
She still failed to inscribe even one talisman with [Rune of Numbness] even after she used all of her 18 tries for today.
Tang Li Xue decided to go out with Yaya to the Inscription Shop and bought many nk talisman papers for her supply.
She also bought several bottles of different [Rare] grade demonic beast''s blood so she could try them one by one to make the [Talisman of Numbness] tomorrow.
Tang Li Xue used more than 1,000 credits to buy everything she needed in the Inscription Shop.
She went back to her room at the residential building and started her usual routine of dripping her blood onto the glutton egg, practicing the [Art of Concealment], and consuming several low-tier spirit stones to increase her cultivation before going to sleep with Yaya at midnight.
.....
...
.
The six ck-cloaked men stood inside the dark alley in the middle of the night.
Any people who see them would certainly guess that they were up to no good.
"How about it? Did you all manage to find some clues about its whereabouts?" One of the ck-cloaked men asked with the hoarse voices.
"I already sneaked into the Investigation Office and stole the doc.u.ment about it, but there was nothing useful written inside it. It only said that the envoy was missing for a few days, and its whereabouts were still unknown until now." The second one answered while shaking his head.
"I find something suspicious, but I don''t know whether it''s rted to that ''thing'' or not." The third ck-cloaked man mumbled with uncertainty tone.
"Just quickly and tell us about it! At least we still have some clues to search even if we still do not know that clue is correct or not. This is very annoying. We cannot track it even with our most powerful ability. We also cannot move around freely, and we do not have any single clue rted to that ''thing''! This is absurd! How could that ''thing'' just vanished as if it evaporated into thin air?!" The fourth ck-cloaked manined using an angry tone.
"There was someone from the residential building who went to the residential building that day too." The third ck-cloaked man tried to exin.
"So what?! There are several thousands of foxes live in the residential building! How many hundreds of them went to the auction house on the same day and time as that envoy?! Do you want us to check them one by one?! This is stupid!" The fourth ck-cloaked man scolded angrily.
"But what if we narrow our searching scope to the Inscriptionist Master who went out from the auction at the same time as that envoy?" The third ck-cloaked man said whileughed.
"Smart! This idea is good! And only Inscription Master from the residential building will go to the auction house to sell their goods! Let''s disperse again and search for any information about the Inscriptionist Masters who attended the auction house that day!" The first ck-cloaked man ordered.
Any distinguished Inscription Master in this Myriad Foxes Academy would have their own store, and they did not need to go to the auction house to sell their goods such as talismans, amulets, etc.
Only the Inscription Master who was not famous yet would go to the auction house to sell their goods, and all of these Inscription Masters were certainly still live in the residential building to .u.mte some credits and fame before opening their own store.
Moreover, only the Inscription Master could crack the array and entered that sealed space to steal that ''thing'' before the Investigation Officer or Punishment Officer came to check it that day!
Although they would never believe that someone could have high enough attainment in Inscription to crack their Honorable One''s array, but they could only blindly search for it since they did not have any other clue for now.
....
...
.
One week has passed without realizing it.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and the others attended Instructor Mei Lan''s fighting lesson every day, and theirbat ability has grown by leap and bounds.
Their teamwork also became even more wless than before.
They could understand what they need to do and their respective role without being told.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan still managed to beat them to half-dead easily every day despite their astounding growth.
Especially, Tang Li Xue with her [Ethereal Form] divine ability! She moved around the arena freely without anyone could detect her since her [Art of Concealment] already reached a quite high attainment, and she harassed Instructor Mei Lan nonstop with her [Mirror of the Moon] that copied the other foxes'' divine ability.
It was as if she had many different kinds of divine abilities at her disposal!
Tang Li Xue also inscribed several new talismans in this week.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Numbness +2]
[ Effect: Numbing the sense of pain, -50% agility, -50% perception for 10 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Reduced the negative buff effect by 30%. Duration +5 minutes.]
[+2 Effect: Reduced the negative buff effect by 50%. Duration +10 minutes.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
After failed so many times using several different kinds of [Rare] grade demonic beast''s blood, Tang Li Xue managed to create only one of this [Talisman of Numbness] after one week and it surprisingly has +2 effects too!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Giant Strength +1]
[ Effect: Strength stats +20%, Lethality +15% for 10 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Strength stats +10%, Lethality +5%. Duration +5 minutes.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Lightning Speed +1]
[ Effect: Agility stats +20%, Movement Speed +30% for 10 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Agility stats +10%, Movement Speed +15%. Duration +5 minutes.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Iron Skin +1]
[[ Effect: Toughness stats +20%, Damage Reduction +15% for 10 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Toughness stats +10%. Damage Reduction +5%. Duration +5 minutes.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
These three talismans were made from the higher grade runes than runes of strength, speed, and toughness.
It was incredibly hard to make and Tang Li Xue wasted many tries in this one week just to inscribe one each of these three talismans.
However, those four talismans were not the most amazing creation she made this week!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Regeneration +2]
[Effect: Activated Regeneration skill. (Heal 1% of maximum HP every 5 seconds for 180 seconds.)]
[+1 Effect: Heal +0.5% of maximum HP every 5 seconds. Duration +60 seconds.]
[+2 Effect: Heal +1% of maximum HP every 5 seconds. Duration +120 seconds.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This super precious talisman made from the crystallization of Tang Li Xue''s one-week effort after she failed countless times. It can heal 180% of maximum HP in 6 minutes!
Even though this [Talisman of Regeneration +2] could not be used at the same time as [Talisman of healing +2] but it could superimpose with her own [Regeneration] ability!
There was no doubt that Tang Li Xue would be even more indomitable than the most tenacious c.o.c.kroach if she used this [Talisman of Regeneration +2]!
With all of these higher grade basic talismans in her hands, she did not believe she would meet with any mishap like what happen when that damned Blue Phoenix brought that [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] into her Dantian again!
Unfortunately, sometimes any living creatures can only make preparations, but it would still not enough to face God''s mischievousness. Moreover, the greater the fortunes, the higher the danger you have to face to acquire it.
.....
The night skies were full of glittering stars, and there was even a beautiful full moon hung above them tonight.
Tang Li Xue smiled full of confidence while she followed Instructor Mei Lan from behind, and they entered the education building together.
Both of them rode the hovering disc, and it brought them to the rooftop of the education building.
The rooftop of the education building was many times bigger than the baseball stadium, and there was also the transparent barrier covered the entire rooftop!
If Tang Li Xue did not have any attainment in the inscription, she would never notice this transparent barrier at all.
Tang Li Xue did not know how many floors this education building has, but when she stood on this rooftop, she felt the moon was so close to her that she could touch it if she reached her hands.
"All right, kid! You can start now! I personally reserved this entire rooftop for you to evolve so you can keep your secrets safe. So if your secrets are not as great as what I expected, I will make sure to teach you even harder in tomorrow''s fighting lesson." Instructor Mei Lan giggled when teased Tang Li Xue and pinched her soft cheeks until they turned red.
Chapter 161 - 161: Full Power of Luck! Open It All!
Chapter 161 - 161: Full Power of Luck! Open It All!
Tang Li Xue rubbed her reddened cheeks with both of her palms as she stared at Instructor Mei Lan in resentment and said: "Instructor Lan, can you retreat thirty... no, fifty meters back? You will make me nervous, and I can''t concentrate if you always stand so close to me."
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled when she saw Tang Li Xue''s adorable act, but she still followed Tang Li Xue''s request and walked away for fifty meters.
Tang Li Xue turned her petite body around, so Instructor Mei Lan could only see Tang Li Xue''s back from where she stood now.
Tang Li Xue sat at in lotus position at the center of the rooftop and took out her [Greater Lucky Sticker] from her system inventory, she closed her eyes for a moment, and took a deep breath while silently prayed in her heart: ''Oh, God in the Heaven, Grandma Meng, Uncle Sun, Heavenly Emperor, Buddha, and all the Gods that hear my prayer! Please help me so I can get many good items to boost my strength this time!''
After Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes, she immediately stuck the [Greater Lucky Sticker] onto her t chest.
She wanted to use this [Greater Lucky Sticker] as a cheat to pass some dangerous situation so many times before, such as when she escaped from the Asura Demon Sect, or when she participated in the dangerous second trial, but she gritted her teeth and endured everything until now!
Tang Li Xue would probably hang herself on the chili tree if she did not manage to get some great benefits after she used this [Greater Lucky Sticker].
[Greater Lucky Sticker Buff duration: 00:10:00]
''Tsk... Why does such a precious buff only have 10 minutes duration?! 10 minutes is clearly too short! It should have one or two days duration!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart while took out her [Level 20 Intermediate Gift Package] from her system inventory.
''Hopefully, I can get some good items... OPEN!''
Ding!
[Gained: 3x2 Times Exp Card(1 hour), 5xLevel Up Pill, 1xRandom Power Ticket, 1xGreater Lucky Sticker, 1XSubstitute Doll, 3xSilver Lottery Ticket, 1XPremium Cultivation Voucher, 2,000 Deity Coins, Level 50 Advanced Gift Package]
''Woah... I get 1 more [Greater Lucky Sticker], [Substitute Doll], and [Premium Cultivation Voucher]! Not bad at all! NEXT!''
Tang Li Xue took out the [Premium Weapon Chest] and the [Premium Armor Chest] from her system inventory at once.
But she decided to open the [Premium Weapon Chest] first.
Ding!
[Please, choose the weapon of your choice first before opening the weapon chest!]
Hundreds of weapons from sword to spear even the ranged ones like gun, crossbow, and bow appeared in her mind.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not know how to use any weapon if not she would certainly choose a long-ranged weapon like a gun or a crossbow. Her time was really tight so she decided to choose the weapon she was most familiar with...
''I choose a pair of the glove as my weapon!'' She answered in her mind and opened the chest in her hands.
Ding!
[Congrattion! You got the [Critical Strikers] from the weapon chest!]
The [Critical Strikers] were the pair of ck colored gloves. It covered and protected the entire palm until the wrist. There was also the tiny hole at the tip of each finger so Tang Li Xue''s sharp ws can poke out from it.
Tang Li Xue held the [Critical Strikers] fondly in her hands. She tried to peek at the [Critical Strikers] stats with her basic [All Knowing Eyes].
-------------------------------------------------------------
[Critical Strikers]
Level: 1
Strength: +5%
Agility: +10%
Hand Movement Speed and coordination: +20%
uracy: +10%
Critical Rate: +10% (Mean 10% chance to deal double damage if you strike the opponent weak point)
Weapon Skill: Final Strike (Deal 3x damage, Critical Rate +20%, Attack Speed+ 30%. Cooldown: 1 hour.)
Weapon Effect: Blur (Each of your hands'' movement will be harder to see and dodged.)
Durability: 500/500
-------------------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering even brighter. This [Critical Strikers] was already quite powerful, and it was only level 1 for now!
That weapon skill was especially dangerous! Imagine if she smashed her opponent weak point with that weapon skill, did it mean she will do damage x3 and x2 again (from the critical hit) to her enemy?!
Moreover, that weapon effect was especially bad news for her enemies.
Tang Li Xue put her [Critical Strikers] into her system inventory for now and opened the [Premium Armor Chest].
Ding!
[Congrattion! You got the [Shadow Striders] from the Armor chest!]
-------------------------------------------------------------
[Shadow Striders]
Level: 1
Agility: +10%
Toughness: +5%
Feet Movement Speed and bnce: +20%
Damage Reduction: -10%
Critical Rate: +10%
Equipment Skill: Shadow sh (Teleport to any shadow up to 100 meters away in an instant. Cooldown: 10 minutes.)
Equipment Effect: Shadow Walker (Turned invisible in the dark ce).
Durability: 500/500
-------------------------------------------------------------
Jackpot again! This time she got an OP pair of ck boots!
This pair of ck-colored boots covered her toes to her knees. The design and ck metallic color matched perfectly made it looks so elegant and nice to look at but did not shy at all.
Based on its design, Tang Li Xue started to doubt that this [Shadow Striders] and the [Critical Strikers] were actually two pieces of equipment from the same set.
Tang Li Xue almost wanted toughed out loud in happiness after she checked this pair of ck boots'' stats with her basic [All Knowing Eyes].
The stats of this [Shadow Striders] were not inferior to the [Critical Strikers] at all. Moreover, its equipment skill: the [Shadow sh] was truly a lifesaver skill if she used it at a critical moment such as when the lethal attack almost hit her.
Its Equipment Effect: the [Shadow Walker] was not too bad, but Tang Li Xue already had her [Ethereal Form] so she did not really need this [Shadow Walker] effect to make her invisible.
Tang Li Xue stored the [Shadow Striders] into her system inventory for now since her Greater Lucky Buff Duration kept ticking off, and every second was so important to her right now.
Tang Li Xue took out her four [Silver Lottery Ticket] and one [Random Power Ticket] out from her system inventory this time.
''Okay... Hopefully, I can get something useful from this ticket this time! Let''s begin!'' Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips with her small tongue.
[The silver wheel of fate started to spinning!]
[Divine Buff Sticker]¡ [Premium Weapon Chest]¡ [Premium Cultivation Voucher]¡ [Premium Armor Set]¡ [Divine Ability Voucher]¡ [Great Cmity Sticker]¡
The silver wheel started to slow down¡ and it stopped in the end at¡
''Please, please, please something useful or something powerful! Come on!'' Tang Li Xue put her hands together and prayed.
Ding!
[Congrattion! You got 1x[Great Cmity Sticker] from the silver wheel of fate!]
Tang Li Xue: ''.....''
Tang Li Xue was stunned silly for a few moments, and her brain was almost short-circuited when she saw the prize she got from her first [Silver Lottery Ticket] at her system log.
She could already hear the grieving anthem from her enemy if she stuck this [Great Cmity Sticker] on their body.
Tang Li Xueughed maniacally while holding the most dangerous weapon, [Great Cmity Sticker] in her hands. She even excitingly imagined what will happen to her enemy if she stuck them with this weapon of her.
"Little Xue, are you okay? What are you waiting for?" Instructor Mei Lan watched Tang Li Xue as if she was watching an insane person and asked full of worry.
Tang Li Xue swiftly threw the [Great Cmity Sticker] into her system inventory and answered Instructor Mei Lan: "I am okay, Instructor Lan! I am recalling something happy first so I can strengthen my will and evolve safelyter without any trouble!"
Tang Li Xue lied to Instructor Mei Lan without even blinking.
Instructor Mei Lan still felt suspicious of Tang Li Xue but she decided to wait for a little longer.
''Oops... this is not good! I am too excited before. Let''s keep calm and here it is... my second draw!'' Tang Li Xue wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.
[The silver wheel of fate started to spinning!]
''Please¡ Let me get something like [Greater Lucky Sticker] this time or more [Great Cmity Sticker] are even better! So I can stick it on all of my enemies'' asses one by one, and let''s see if they still live until tomorrow!'' Tang Li Xue put her hands together and closed her eyes.
[Congrattion! You got 1x[Restoration Elixir] from the bronze wheel of fate!]
''Ooooh?! This thing is not bad too! With this [Restoration Elixir], I can restore one more divine treasure in the future! Next, the third draw!'' Tang Li Xue held her chin with her slender finger while grinning widely in satisfaction.
[The silver wheel of fate started to spinning!]
''My luck is good tonight! But I still hope to get something that can boost my personal strength quickly. Something like a godly pill that capable of making me evolves into [Epic] grade spirit beast in an instant...''
[Congrattion! You got 1x[Talisman of Invulnerability] from the silver wheel of fate!]
[Talisman of Invulnerability]: Make the user invulnerable to any effect, power, and attack for ten minutes.
''Tsk... Not really what I expected but this talisman is really too OP! Okay, thest [Silver Lottery Ticket]... GO!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in amazement before stored the [Talisman of Invulnerability] into her system inventory carefully.
[The silver wheel of fate started to spinning!]
''I am really looking forward to thisst item... It should be the most OP, the most wonderful, the strongest of all items I have ever got before!'' Tang Li Xue grasped her fist tighter as her eagerness reached the maximum.
[Congrattion! You got 1x[Substitute Doll] from the silver wheel of fate!]
Tang Li Xue: ''.....''
''All right... let''s forget it and use thisst whatever random ticket then evolve! Hopefully, my Greater Lucky Sticker Buff canst long enough so I can finish my evolution before it expired.''?Tang Li Xue''s eagerness dropped to the bottom, and she used herst ticket carelessly.
[The wheel of power started to spinning!]
[Judgment of Light]... [Spell Steal]... [Doom]... [Meteor Crash]... [Divine Intervention]... [Flight]... [Mind Control]... [Super Reflexes]... [Future Sight]... [Diamond Body]... [Elemental Immunity]... [Instant Regeneration]... [Illusion Dreand]... [Super Telekinesis]... [Purple Thunderbolt]... [Roll]... [Tackle]... [Heal]...
Surprisingly, there was the countless type of powers from the most OP one like [Elemental Immunity] and [Future Sight] to the most useless one like [Roll] and [Tackle].
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock the moment she saw countless godly skills and divine abilities on the wheel!
Her heart thumped wildly as she stared at the spinning wheel and the pointing needle with full of hope and nervousness.
Chapter 162 - 162: 2nd Evolution! START!
Chapter 162 - 162: 2nd Evolution! START!
[Congrattion! You got unique-tier [Energy Maniption] divine ability from the wheel of power!]
''Woah... Energy Maniption? Unique-tier divine ability?'' Tang Li Xue stared quizzically at the system log.
[Energy Maniption]: The divine ability that allows the user to manipte any kind of energies in the user''s body such as spirit power, Qi, or Vitality Energy to form something ording to the user will like shields, swords, arrows, etc.
''Owh My Gawd! This [Energy Maniption] is godly divine ability!'' Tang Li Xue screamed in her mind excitedly, while grinning with a silly face.
This was her first offensive type divine ability other than [Mirror of the Moon] that capable of copying any divine ability.
Of course, that was if she did not count the [Sun Dragon ws] and the [Sun Dragon Fangs] she obtained from the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl].
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as she resisted the urge to search about Unique-tier divine ability in her [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] and took out the giant [Crystal Moon Gem] from her space pouch.
She put the giant [Crystal Moon Gem] that looked like a giant white granite rock in front of her.
''Hmm? What the hell is this crystal mushroom? Let''s see if my basic [All Knowing Eyes] can see its function!'' Tang Li Xue activated her basic [All Knowing Eyes] and looked at the crystal mushroom that was growing under the [Crystal Moon Gem].
[Moonlight Mushroom]
[Description: The special mushroom grew on the Crystal Moon Gem and absorb moonlight energy every day for 100 years. Beware! It will wither after one day of being plucked from the Crystal Moon Gem.]
[Function: Each mushroom contains 100 energies of the moon. (1 energy of moon = 1 night of moonlight bath)]
Tang Li Xue: ''WHUUUUUUT?!''
Tang Li Xue wanted to cough out a mouthful of blood after she read the mushroom''s function, and she almost fainted in regret and anger.
She waited patiently for three months, but the answer to her trouble was actually already in front of her eyes since the very start!
Tang Li Xue started to ponder for a while, she must use this [Crystal Moon Gem] for her evolution but this [Moonlight Mushroom] will wither after one day of being plucked from the Crystal Moon Gem.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as her topaz blue eyes shone with determination and thought: ''It will be a great waste to not use this [Moonlight Mushroom]! I still have Greater Lucky Sticker Buff anyway! Hopefully, eating this [Moonlight Mushroom] will bring me extra benefit when I evolveter!''
Tang Li Xue plucked the [Moonlight Mushroom] one by one and stuffed it into her mouth greedily.
It was not because these [Moonlight Mushroom] were delicious or something but because her Greater Lucky Sticker Buff was still ticking off every second and duration kept decreasing.
''Damn! Who knows that these ugly looking mushrooms are really super-duper delicious?!'' Tang Li Xue thought while kept stuffing the [Moonlight Mushroom] into her mouth with a delightful expression.
Okay, maybe the deliciousness also one of the factors she ate it greedily like that...
[Moonlight energy increased by 100!]
[Moonlight energy increased by 100!]
[Moonlight energy increased by 100!]
.....
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression turned darker and darker when she saw Tang Li Xue took out the giant white stone and even started to eat the crystal mushrooms which grow on it.
Tang Li Xue did not know how many credits Instructor Mei Lan had spent and how many of her superior she needs to threaten... cough... cough... I mean plead to reserve this entire rooftop of the education building.
"If this little scoundrel dares to pull my legs, I will certainly make sure she regrets being born into this world tomorrow!" Instructor Mei Lan mumbled softly as a wisp of ruthlessness shone from the deepest of her obsidian ck eyes.
It was natural that Instructor Mei Lan felt as if she was being cheated by Tang Li Xue because, among all of her students before, there was no one did what Tang Li Xue do right now.
"Okay, this is the time! Yaya, can you retreat a bit for me?" Tang Li Xue said to Yaya that sat quietly on the top of her right shoulder.
Yaya looked at Tang Li Xue full of worry but Tang Li Xue only rubbed Yaya''s tiny head gently and said: "There is no need for you to worry. This is amon process for a beast! I will only evolve into higher grade beast and be stronger then we will go home like usual after that, okay?!"
Yaya reluctantly nodded to Tang Li Xue and she flew away a few meters from Tang Li Xue.
''Oh yeah... I almost forgot about that tiny ck box!'' Tang Li Xue pped her forehead lightly and took out the tiny ck box she got from the dying fox body before from the ancient cauldron full of cracks in her spatial ring.
Tang Li Xue tried to open it tiny ck box in her hands but it was clearly locked byplicated tiny runes. It would probably take her a few months to a few years to crack it.
Tang Li Xue almost abandoned this tiny ck box and threw it back into her spatial ring but a sh of inspiration appeared in her mind before she could do that.
She took out her golden [Inscription Pen] from her system inventory.
With the incredibly powerful [Pration] effect and the golden [Inscription Pen] ruined the countless tiny locking runes along with the tiny keyhole.
Tang Li Xue carefully opened the tiny ck box upward since she did not know what kind of trap has been set inside it.
There was a very beautiful rainbow-colored tiny gem as big as a marble inside the tiny ck box.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue was really disappointed when she saw the content of this tiny ck box since she guessed there was something like a spatial ring inside it at first and there were countless priceless treasures stored inside that spatial ring.
Tang Li Xue activated her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to peek at the rainbow-colored tiny gem''s stats and function.
---------------------------------------------------------------
[Awakening Gem]
[Description: The priceless miracle stone made from thepressed pure energy andw of heaven and earth.]
[Effect: Lowered all the requirements of the evolution by 25% (Level, requirement items, energy, etc).]
-----------------------------------------------------------------
CLAAAPPP~!!!
Tang Li Xue forcefully closed the tiny ck box with her trembling little hands. Even her breathes and her heartbeats became erratic after she saw the rainbow-colored gem''s effect.
It was not exaggerating at all to say that this [Awakening Gem] was the priceless miracle stone!
For example, Tang Li Xue needed to reach level 41 to evolve into [Rare] grade demonic beast but with this [Awakening Gem], she could evolve at level 31 in the future.
If Tang Li Xue needed to reach level 81 to evolve into [Epic] grade spirit beastter but with this [Awakening Gem]''s help, she could evolve at level 61!
Even the ''Overpowered'' word was not enough to describe this [Awakening Gem]''s super awesome effect!
Tang Li Xue did not know how to use this [Awakening Gem], so she simply put it in front of her and touched the [Crystal Moon Gem] with her left hand while using her right hand to open her evolution window in her system.
[Royal Moon Fox] [Req: Strength=200; Agility=300; Toughness=200; take moonlight bath for 99 days; need to hold a crystal moon gem to evolve]
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes for a moment to drive away all distracting thoughts then chose the [Royal Moon Fox] option in the evolution list.
Ding!
[Awakening Gem has been detected!]
[Merging it with the host!]
The rainbow-colored tiny gem flew onto Tang Li Xue''s forehead and entered into it.
[Merging sessful!]
[All evolutions'' requirements will be reduced by 25% from now on!]
''This is super awesome! System, I want to kiss you so badly!'' Tang Li Xueughed happily when she read the system log.
[Crystal Moon Gem has been detected! The evolution item requirement has been met!]
[Checking total moonlight energies...]
[Detecting the current total of the moon energies are more than 999!]
[The moon energies requirement has surpassed the Royal Moon Fox''s requirement by more than ten times!]
[Detecting the host has absorbed the huge amount of mystic fog!]
[Detecting the host has spirit-rted divine ability!]
[Upgrading the Royal Moon Fox''s evolution path to offset the host''s current requirement...]
[Congrattion! The host is currently triggering the hidden evolution path: The Imperial Moon Fox!]
Tang Li Xue''s mind was buzzing and she felt dizzy by the system''s continuous notification.
However, Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes widened in shock and disbelief when she saw thest line of the system notification.
''HIDDEN EVOLUTION PATH?! Ufufufu... Muahahaha... It looks like my choice to use [Greater Lucky Sticker] for my evolution has finally paid off! Imperial Moon Fox... here Ie!'' Tang Li Xueughed happily while grasped her tiny fist tightly full of determination.
But unfortunately, the surprise for Tang Li Xue was still far from over...
[Detecting the rich Yang Sun Energies in the host body!]
[The rich Yang Sun Energies has countered the Yin Moon energies in the host body!]
[The host hidden evolution path''s progress has been sessfully obstructed by the rich Yang Sun Energies!]
[Cancelling the hidden evolution path: The Imperial Moon Fox...]
''What? What the hell is happening here?! Rich Yang Sun energies? Don''t tell me that these Yang Sun energies came from that [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]?! Dammit!!! What to do now?! Oh God... Please, don''t tell me that my evolution will be failed and I will be stuck in the [Common] grade forever?!'' Tang Li Xue almost fainted in disappointment, anger, and regret when she saw the notification from the system.
Tang Li Xue started to get really anxious, and she kept staring at her system log without blinking.
Her heartbeat was pounding so fast, and it almost jumped out from her mouth when she was waiting for her system next notification, and each second felt like a century-long.
Chapter 163 - 163: The Quadruple Evolution Phenomenon!
Chapter 163 - 163: The Quadruple Evolution Phenomenon!
"Little Xue... You know, even someone as kind and patient as me are starting to lose my patience now, and I am sure you don''t want to know what I am going to do to you if that happens. So you better hurry and start to evolve now!" Instructor Mei Lan''s expression turnedpletely dark and gloomy.
It was clear what she felt after she saw Tang Li Xue was ying around whileughing by herself like an insane person, took out the giant white stone then ate the mushroom greedily, and now Tang Li Xue stood there while touching the giant white stone with her left palm with a nervous expression.
Tang Li Xue''s face turned pale like a piece of white paper, and she did not know what to do right now either.
After waiting for ten minutes or so and there was no more response or notification from her system, Tang Li Xue was ready to give up, so she turned her petite body and tried to apologize to Instructor Mei Lan with teary eyes.
"Instructor Lan I..."
But before Tang Li Xue could finish her words...
BWOOOOOOOOOSSSHHH~~!!!
The blinding white and golden lights were shining from the skies above them.
Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue quickly covered their eyes from the blinding lights with their palm.
Instructor Mei Lan peeked through the gap between her fingers to look at what exactly was those lightsing from.
"Oh... my... this... this is impossible!!! How can it be?!" Instructor Mei Lan''s slender body trembled violently, and she kept mumbling in disbelief.
It was natural for her to be so shocked because currently there were two moons and one sun on the skies!
Even Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock. She took a few steps backward and wanted to lean on the giant [Crystal Moon Gem] but the gem was alreadypletely vanished and could no longer be found anywhere now.
[Establishing the connection with the source of the rich Yang Sun energies...]
[The connection with the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] has been sessfully established!]
[Stabilizing the amount of Yang Sun energies and Yin Moon energies...]
[The bnce between Yang Sun energies and Yin Moon energies has been met!]
[Warning! The evolution path suitable for the current host cannot be found!]
[Building the personal variant evolution path suitable for the current host using the Imperial Moon Fox temte as the base!]
[Reconstruction of personal variant evolution path for the current host has seeded!]
[Initiate the personal variant evolution path: Imperial Sun and Moon Fox!]
''Woah?! Is this something more amazing than the hidden previous one?! I mean it has ''Sun'' in its name now! So it must be something more amazing! Definitely... Probably... Possibly... Maybe... Oh well, I don''t care! At the very least I am really d that I can still evolve into [Umon] grade demonic beast now!''
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, and her [Transfiguration: Human Form] automatically canceled when she started undergoing her evolution process. So currently, Tang Li Xue''s form has returned to her moon fox form.
Tang Li Xue took out her [Talisman of Numbness +2] from her space pouch and held it tightly with her paws.
''Come on! I am ready for this!'' Tang Li Xue squinted her topaz blue eyes and licked her lips in excitement.
However, once again something shocking happened beyond Tang Li Xue''s prediction!
BAAAAAAANG~~!!!
The dormant Deep Blue Phoenix in its majestic cocoon jumped out from Tang Li Xue''s dantian and begun to devouring the rich Yang Sun energies from the sun imitation on the current night skies!
CRACK... CRACK... CRACK... CRACK... CRACK...
The cocoon made from thepression of the deep blue me and dark gold me started to fill with cracks!
''Oh? Is it already the time for thiszy bum to...'' Tang Li Xue stared at the Blue Phoenix''s cocoon curiously but before she could finish her thinking, something surprising has happened again for the third time!
WEEEEEEENGGGG~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s martial soul, the [Flying Golden Fish] summoned out by itself without Tang Li Xue''s will it!
The [Flying Golden Fish] began to crazily absorb the essence of the sun and moon. Countless tiny white and gold energy particles like fireflies entered its tiny golden body.
Its magnificent golden body started to fill with cracks too just like the Blue Phoenix''s cocoon, and Tang Li Xue could feel an intense stinging pain assaulting her mind because of it.
''Dammit! What the hell is happening here? Don''t tell me these two will also evolve tonight like...'' Tang Li Xue frowned deeply, but for the fourth time, Tang Li Xue''s thinking was interrupted by something.
This time was actually Yaya''s talked to her, asking for her help.
Yaya said to Tang Li Xue that she was in great pain and her body felt very ufortable.
Tang Li Xue herself also started to feel the great itchiness spreading through her entire body and her mind was still assaulted by the intense stinging pain because her martial soul that crumbling apart.
But she still decided to grit her teeth and withstood everything then ran toward where Yaya was to check her current condition!
The surrounding air on the rooftop turned chaotic, and even the surrounding wind was raging in an erratic manner, while Yaya lied down on the ground and writhing in pain.
That''s right! Yaya already ate so many foods this month, after she entered Myriad Foxes Academy and since Tang Li Xue got so many credits from inscribed the talismans for sale.
It was also true that Yaya already reached level 21 this week, and she was ready to evolve, but Tang Li Xue never thought that Yaya would also evolve on the same day and at the same time as her!
''Holysh*t! This is really impossible! How could this happen at the same time?!'' Tang Li Xue started to get more anxious and panic.
It was clear that her martial soul, the Deep Blue Phoenix, and Yaya was currently evolving on the same day and at the same time as her!
When Tang Li Xue was almost lost all of her wits and mind in this peril situation...
"LITTLE XUE!!! Calm down yourself first, you little idiot!"
Tang Li Xue heard Instructor Mei Lan''s shout, but her tone was exceptionally fierce today.
"Remember! You cannot solve anything if your mind is not calm. Your heart can get angry, regret, panic, or anxious, but your mind must always stay clear so you can take the best choice at the right time in any kind of situation without any regret!" Instructor Mei Lan''s told Tang Li Xue her advice calmly from afar.
But Tang Li Xue did not know that although Instructor Mei Lan looked really calm on the surface, she was actually very surprised inside by all of Tang Li Xue''s secrets!
Just that Deep Blue me Phoenix inside Tang Li Xue''s body was already very shocking, but who knows that Tang Li Xue actually has a martial soul just like a human!
However, it wasmon knowledge for all beasts that only a newly evolved spirit beast could get a martial soul when their beast form remained dormant for some time until their human cultivation reached a certain threshold.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head, and she decided to ask Tang Li Xue after all of this was overter.
.....
Tang Li Xue inhaled deeply as her topaz blue eyes cleared from all confusion and anxiousness after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
Tang Li Xue thought for a while before she tossed the [Talisman of Numbness +2] to Yaya. She even added [Talisman of Healing +2] to make sure Yaya will be alright, and Yaya could pass the evolution process safely.
BBBOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
The Deep Blue me Phoenix smashed its cocoon to pieces and soar out to the night skies!
Or so what it really wanted to do but it dropped down to the rooftop again before it could fly too high...
Right now, it was jolting around in pain as its deep blue me body was burned by the extremely lethal dark gold me!
Tang Li Xue: ''.....''
She really did not know what to think about this stupid bird anymore now. This little blue rascal fell asleep after almost killed her before when it brought the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] into her dantian, and it only woke up tonight at this time to ask for her help?!
''The hell is wrong with this me?! The most vicious mes, the seven earthly mes of desire? My a*s! What kind of pathetic me can get burned by the other me?! Tsk! I really almost angered to death by it tonight!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in anger and annoyance but she still admitted that this me already helped her so much before.
Moreover, if this Deep Blue Phoenix managed to evolve even stronger then it means her deep-blue me will also get far stronger than before. Added with her strength after she evolvedter, herbat prowess would definitely soar to an imaginable level!
Of course, she and this blue rascal needed to pass tonight tribtion first before they could be stronger!
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a while before she took out her precious [Talisman of Regeneration +2] and [Talisman of Iron Skin +1] then threw it toward the burning Deep Blue Phoenix.
With the [Talisman of Iron Skin +1] 20% damage reduction and [Talisman of Regeneration +2] unbelievable healing power, this Deep Blue Phoenix should be able to pass its evolution process safely.
She already made many preparations in this one week before her evolution day, but who knows that she needed to use all of her safety cards to assist Deep Blue Phoenix and Yaya evolution rather than her own evolution.
Now Tang Li Xue could only depend on herself to pass her own evolution phase and her martial soul''s evolution phase.
The two moons and one sun on the skies got brighter and brighter. At first, it only looked ethereal like an illusion, but now it was getting more and more the real!
Even all the foxes in Myriad Foxes Academy could feel the sun''s scorching temperature and the two moons'' freezing temperatures at once.
Themotion started to burst. Many crowds of foxes were heading to the education building to witness the phenomenon clearer and find the source of that phenomenon.
The sun in the middle while the two moons were at the sun''s right and left side.
But the two moons were moving closer and closer to the sun in the middle at the snail pace!
Especially such a grand phenomenon only came from Tang Li Xue''s evolution alone!
While the other three, Yaya, Deep Blue Phoenix, and the [Flying Golden Fish] also started to trigger their own evolution phenomenon!
The wind, air, and the cloud on the Myriad Foxes Academy''s surrounding and on the skies above it began to swirl violently making the colossal eye of a giant vortex!
The deep blue mes with its high temperature and the dark gold mes with its power to annihte everything was raging violently on the rooftop and the skies above it, destroying everything they touched including any particle of dust, wind, and air!
Deep Blue Phoenix used its tiny me body as the medium to merge these two overbearing mes. The process was quite slow, but it did it very carefully without any mistakes.
Its tiny me body kept being destroyed by the resisting dark gold me, but it also kept getting healed thanks to Tang Li Xue''s two talismans. Deep Blue Phoenix could handle it with ease now, and its resistance against the dark gold me was also getting higher and higher the longer the time passed.
As for Tang Li Xue''s martial soul, the [Flying Golden Fish], it was clear that Tang Li Xue''s Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline has arge impact on her martial soul''s evolution path.
It started to shed its brittle skins, and its fish form was slowly changed bit by bit!
Only the pair of golden angel wings on its back did not change, but it was shining with even more brilliance. Its body also got longer and longer.
If Tang Li Xue saw her martial soul''s form right now, she would certainly drop her jaw in a silly manner by it. She could definitely recognize it immediately as its form got more identical with the dragon in the legend!
It was a different kind from the western dragon form like the [Red Eyes Winged Lizard], but it was more identical to the Chinese dragon but with an additional pair of brilliance golden wings on its back.
Moreover, all kinds of liquid in the entire Myriad Foxes Academy including any water, tea in the cup or teapot, and medicine solution started to get restless because they were attracted by its power.
All of the slowly flew upward on its own and their destination was the rooftop of the education building!
The quadruple evolution phenomenon at the rooftop of the education building was even starting to draw the attention of the superior at the Myriad Foxes Academy.
Chapter 164 - 164: Mishap!

...
.
A fair-skinned beautiful woman was currently hovering on the top of Myriad Foxes Academy, while kept staring at the rooftop of the education building where Tang Li Xue undergoing her evolution process right now.
The woman wore a loose white dress. It was extremely revealing, and fully revealed her voluptuous curves that were s.e.xy and charming.
With such a charming and gorgeous appearance coupled with a hot and s.e.xy figure, the woman''s entirety emanated charm and temptation that would drive men mad.
Her eyes seemed to hold pools of spring water, and it caused her to reveal natural charm as her eyes moved about.
However, there were four tails condensed from the purple mes fluttering behind her along with her long hair.
The beautiful woman frowned, and her figure suddenly vanished from where she was currently hovering before.
"Greetings to the beautiful President of the Inscriptionist Association, Miss Zi Hua. May I ask why your distinguished self came to my humble Education Department?" A masculine voice with gentle tones entered the beautiful woman''s ear.
A handsome ck-haired man appeared right in front of the beautiful woman, Zi Hua, and greet her politely with a gentle smile on his face, but it was clear that the man intended to stop Zi Hua from approaching the education building''s rooftop.
As the most beautiful race, it could be said that no one in the entire fox race has an ugly human form. All of the foxes'' human forms were extremely exquisite whether it was male or female.
Moreover, almost all the beasts have a far longer lifespanpared to the human race, so the beasts in their human form will always look so youthful.
"President of the Inscriptionist Association, Zi Hua greets Education Councillor Junjie. I only want to know who is the one evolving into a spirit beast tonight and make themotion this big so Ie here to check." Zi Hua bowed her head a bit and smiled while saluting the man in front of her politely.
Congrattion to Councillor Junjie on having another powerful subordinate! But can you allow me to witness your subordinate evolution process?" Zi Hua asked for permission while trying to probe some information from Councillor Junjie with her congrattion.
"Oh? I am sorry President Zi Hua, but my education building''s rooftop is off limit for tonight. I hope President Zi Hua can understand my predicament. On the one side, I really want to help the beautiful President Zi Hua, but on the other side, I must protect my education department''s interest. Sigh... this is really a thorny problem for me." Councillor Junjie sighed in regret, and even his expression was showing how regretful he was.
But who knows that Councillor Junjieughed mockingly at Zi Hua in his heart while cursing someone in anger: ''Pffft... Powerful subordinate? How the hell I don''t know what are you talking about?! But I will lose my face if I say I don''t know anything about what happened in MY own building, so I am forced to admit it! Tsk... that daughter of mine is really cannot stop making trouble for me! I am almost dying from anger tonight! I will make sure to teach that troublesome daughter of mine an unforgettable lessonter!''
Councillor Junjie''s expression did not change at all from outside. He was still smiled gently and every of his movement exuded elegance.
If Tang Li Xue, Bing, Yi, Li Jing, and the others saw this Councillor Junjie, they would find all of his gestures were quite identical with their teacher, the Instructor Mei Lan.
''Is that ''thing'' really fell into this Councillor Junjie''s hands? No, if this Councillor Junjie really has that ''thing'' in his hands, he will never lend something so important even to his confidant! But maybe he lends it to his family member to assist them in their evolution?'' Zi Hua''s thought spun quickly while she kept staring at the Councillor Junjie''s expression to judge if he really had that ''thing'' in his possession or not.
''The timing of that ''thing'' is missing and this fox evolution is too close. I doubt that all of this is just a coincidence!'' Zi Hua''s face darkened when she deduced everything in her mind.
''No matter what happens I must see who is the one evolving now first before deciding what to do! I can even use my talisman to use a technique that allows me to check if that ''thing'' is really thereter!'' Zi Hua''s eyes glinted coldly as she what she needs to do.
"Then Zi Hua apologizes to Councillor Junjie first for my impoliteness. But this one is really curious to death so this one wants to personally see the fox that evolves tonight from close." After Zi Hua said her apologies, the purple me started to burst out violently from her voluptuous body.
"Sigh... Miss Zi Hua, why a distinguished person such as yourself need to be so pushy? Isn''t better if we drink some good wine under the plum tree tonight while enjoying the beautiful starry skies rather than watching this boring process of evolution?" Councillor Junjie sighed again in regret but four of grayish tails appeared behind him as his powerful aura also instantly exploded out from his robust body to greet Zi Hua''s purple me.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
The earth-shattering battle between the two [Epic] grade spirit beasts has broken out on the night skies above the Myriad Foxes Academy tonight.
.....
...
.
While Yaya, Deep Blue me Phoenix, Tang Li Xue, and her martial soul was still remained oblivious about it and busily facing their own difficult evolution process on the education building''s rooftop.
Especially Tang Li Xue!
The evolution from the savage beast to the demonic beast waspletely on a different scale from [Poor] grade to [Common] grade or [Umon] to [Rare]. It was a true major breakthrough, the same as when the demonic beast evolved into a spirit beast.
When the beast from the [Poor] grade evolving into [Common] grade savage beast, they only felt unbearable itchiness on their body because it means their body has grown stronger so quickly but when the savage beast evolving into a demonic beast, they need to form a beast core inside their body!
That beast core would be the source of their life and power! The ce where they will .u.mte their vitality energy just like a dantian for humans!
Currently, Tang Li Xue''s Greater Lucky Sticker Buff duration has already long been up, and she even met with a great life-threatening mishap.
She was still gritting her teeth to withstand the unbearable itchiness on her every flesh and the unimaginable pain from inside her body.
-4978, -4137, -4843, -4126, -4723.....
The damages she received were already reduced more than half by her [Golden Body] but it was still decreasing so fiercely.
+1644, +1644, +1644, +1644, +1644.....
The health regeneration bonus from her [Golden Body] plus her [Regeneration] skill could not keep up with the speed of her HP decreasing!
She did not even have any energy to spare for cursing and howling like when she evolved from the [Fox Cub] to the [Moon Fox] before.
The unbearable itchiness on her every flesh means that her body kept getting stronger by leaps and bounds nonstop right now.
The unimaginable pain from inside her body means that the beast core was currently still in the forming process.
However, her beast core was clearly vastly different from the normal beast core!
It was forming from thepression of the Yang Sun energy and the Yin Moon energy!
Moreover, the amount of Yang Sun energy and Yin Moon energy must be always the same to keep its bnce!
If one of them was only a little bit more than the other, it would create the violent chain reaction of failure and then... BAAAMMM!
The beast core would explode and Tang Li Xue would definitely die from the huge explosioning from within her own body.
Of course, it was impossible for anyone to keep these two insanely powerful opposite powers in bnce while withstanding unbearable itchiness on their flesh and unimaginable pain from the inside of their body and soul.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue has the OP system that did it automatically for her!
The disadvantage was the OP system always attached the utmost importance in the result and regard Tang Li Xue''s safety as the lower priority.
This was the main reason why Tang Li Xue fell into this predicament!
Because if her system did not chase for the optimum result, then she did not need to feel this unbearable paining from inside her body.
But it was already toote for her to regret it now. What she could do right now was only to resist the unbearable itchiness on her flesh and unimaginable pain inside her body until her beast''s core was fully formed, and her evolution process was finally over without passing out.
This process should be easy for her if she used her [Talisman of Numbness +2] and her [Talisman of Regeneration +2] to herself at this moment but unfortunately, she already used the two of them to Yaya and Blue me Phoenix before.
Furthermore, she also needed to resist the mind-breaking pain that kept assaulting her mind because of her martial soul''s evolution right now.
It could be said Tang Li Xue was almost out of luck, and she was destined to die tonight.
Yes, ALMOST!
Luckily, she made the most correct choice when she decided to use the [Greater Lucky Sticker] tonight!
However, all of these happened were not because of Tang Li Xue''s fault at all since the [Greater Lucky Sticker] brought this dangerous evolution path process to her but it also gave her the solution for it!
Tang Li Xue pulled out the [Substitute Doll] from her inventory system and swiftly inserted her silver-white fur into it.
Ding!
[Sessfully bind the Substitute Doll with the owner. From now on any damage or lethal damage the owner takes would be transferred to Substitute Doll.]
-4794, -4756, -4294, -4903, -4389.... (Taken by [Substitute Doll])
+1644, +1644, +1644, +1644, +1644.....
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she looked her HP started to regenerate steadily.
At the very least the torturous pain from inside her body and mind was received by the [Substitute Doll] for now, although she still must keep withstanding the unbearable itchiness on her every flesh.
Tang Li Xue thought she would be safe with [Substitute Doll]''s protection but who knows that the [Substitute Doll] in her paws started to crumble bit by bit after more than one minute!
''Holysh*t! For God''s sake, I only evolve from the [Common] grade to [Umon] grade! Is there any need for this to be so dangerous and difficult?!'' Tang Li Xue grimaced and groaned.
After the [Substitute Doll] in Tang Li Xue''s paws crumbled half, the inside of her body and her mind began to be attacked by the unbearable pain once again.
Her blood kept dripping down from her every pore soaking the floor below her feet with crimson color.
Tang Li Xue''s eyes turned fuzzy, and her blood-soaked body dropped down limply on the floor.
Instructor Mei Lan could no longer watch quietly from afar!
Her slender body vanished from where she stood before and appeared right beside Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan retrieved out a wooden box from her space pouch. She hastily opened the wooden box and took out a green pill from inside it.
With a single nce, anyone could tell that this green pill was extremely precious from how exquisite the wooden box was.
Tang Li Xue shook her head weakly as she tried to refuse Instructor Mei Lan''s precious pill.
She already used the [Substitute Doll] after all, and she would not die even if she was killed. So eating this precious pill would only wasting a precious resource.
"Little Xue! Please, be good and eat this! This Green Dew Pill is an extremely precious healing pill. It can recover anyone to their most healthy state as long as that one still breathing! If you eat this..." Instructor Mei Lan tried to force the green pill into Tang Li Xue''s mouth while exining the pill''s effect, but before Tang Li Xue could eat it...
Plop!
Tang Li Xue''s eyes were closed, and she stopped breathingpletely.
"Little Xue? Please stop joking with me! LITTLE XUE!" Instructor Mei Lan was still in a daze and shouted at Tang Li Xue''s body desperately in disbelief.
She kept shaking Tang Li Xue''s cold body full of anxiousness and sorrow.
The protection array on the education building''s rooftop started to crack bit by bit. The cracks kept spreading wider and wider to the entire protection array for a few minutes before finally...
BBAAAAAAAAANGG~~!!!
The transparent protection array shatteredpletely into countless tiny pieces like a ss wall, and two peoplended gracefully on the education building''s rooftop.
These two people were, of course, Councillor Junjie and Zi Hua.
However, they temporarily stopped their fighting when they saw Mei Lan held a dead body in her arms.
Zi Hua silently used her [Talisman of See Through] under her sleeve, and her eyes were shining with a strange dim blue glow as she scanned Mei Lan and the dead body in her arms.
Chapter 165 - 165: Clash of Elementals!
Chapter 165 - 165: sh of Elementals!
Zi Hua frowned deeper when she did not find any trace of that ''thing'' from Mei Lan and the dead body using her [Eyes of See Through].
''This is strange. Why is this ce so messy? It looks as if there are several beasts that evolve together here before! Vortex, water, sun, and two moons... Come to think of it, these phenomenon''s elementals did not match with each other!'' Zi Hua inspected the rooftop surrounding carefully.
''Did Councillor Junjie and his daughter experiment with that ''thing'' first before they dared to use it on themselves? Possibly! I cannot make them wary of me and make them guess that I know about that ''thing'' in their possession for now! I will pacify them for now and think about my next moveter after I went back!'' Zi Hua thought carefully.
"Sigh... It''s such a pity. Zi Hua conveys her condolence to Councillor Junjie and Miss Mei Lan. Please take this little gift as my apologies for forcibly barging here at the wrong time." Zi Hua handed a wooden box to Councillor Junjie before gave her salute to him and excused herself from there.
However, Councillor Junjie did not realize that before Zi Hua went away from there, her eyes glinted cold light as she sneered full of ruthlessness and craftiness.
After Zi Hua went away from the education building''s rooftop, Councillor Junjie''s gentle smile vanished as he snorted coldly and threw Zi Hua''s wooden box carelessly into his space pouch.
Councillor Junjie walked toward where his daughter sat on the ground while holding the cold dead body of Tang Li Xue in her arms in a daze.
Councillor Junjie tried tofort Mei Lan, but he did not have any experience in this so he did not know what to say in this situation. In the end, he only stood silently behind Mei Lan without saying anything.
"This is my fault. I should take care of her more and make more preparation carefully. I underestimated her and what happened now is the result of my negligence." Mei Lan shook her head in regret.
Everyone thought Mei Lan as a cruel instructor because the mortality rate of her students was so high, but the reality was actually far from that.
She only wanted all of her students to grow quickly under her tutge so they could survive at the cruel human world outsideter.
Myriad Foxes Academy was not a charity organization after all. All the foxes in the Myriad Foxes Academy would need to carry out many dangerous missions outside at some point.
But in the end, many of her students still died in the hands of humans when they carried their mission outside the Myriad Foxes Academy.
Actually, Tang Li Xue was Mei Lan''s first student that died inside the Myriad Foxes Academy in front of her own eyes.
This was why the impact of Tang Li Xue''s death was quite a big blow to Mei Lan''s heart.
"Eh... This is strange. Lan''er, look at the skies! Why is the phenomenon not over yet?!" Councillor Junjie widened his eyes in surprise and shouted to notify Mei Lan.
"WHAT?!" Mei Lan looked upward to the skies and dropped her jaw in surprise.
Then she checked Tang Li Xue''s cold body once again but the result still the same. Tang Li Xue has already died, and her breath has alreadypletely stopped.
"How could it be?! What is exactly happening here?" Mei Lan screamed in shock and disbelief.
.....
...
.
Mei Lan did not realize at all that Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Blue me Phoenix did not die, but they had already stealthy teleported to another ce several tens of miles away from the education building by her [Substitute Doll] before it shattered to dust.
Probably Tang Li Xue also did not know that her [Substitute Doll] could camouge her death so perfectly, and it did not only fake her death but also Yaya and Blue me Phoenix.
The [Substitute Doll] also teleported the three of them to the safest ce randomly.
Fortunately, they did not get teleported into the crowded public area, or they would certainly create argemotion there.
Currently, Tang Li Xue and the others were teleported into an empty courtyard full of beautiful flowers and nts. There was a small pond full of rainbow-colored fishes in the middle of the courtyard.
But Tang Li Xue and the others did not have any free time to enjoy the beautiful scenery here since they were currently facing the most dangerous and critical phase of their evolution!
''AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH~!!! So painful! So itch!'' Tang Li Xue was writhing her body as her body emitting out the red smoke because her blood was evaporated by intense heating from inside her body.
The source of intense heat wasing from the Yang Sun energies from the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] inside Tang Li Xue''s dantian. This [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] was also the one that made the sun phenomenon on the skies to suppress the overbearing twin moons.
While her silver-white fur and skin were covered by ayer of frost from Yin Moon energy absorbed from the twin moons on the skies!
Two pr opposite elementals fought fiercely using Tang Li Xue''s body as the medium, while her system kept using the energies of these two pr opposite elementals to condense the beast core for her!
The pain and itchiness she was feeling right now could not even bepared with what she felt when she was at the education building''s rooftop! It was many times more intense than before!
She did not even have any spare energy or time to use another [Substitute Doll] in her system inventory.
BWOOOOOOOOOOSSSHHH~~!!!
The huge eye of the vortex on the skies spun faster and faster then it started to descend slowly toward where Yaya was!
Yaya''s tiny body was floating upward by itself and started to greedily devour the huge eye of the vortex or its violent wind energies contained in there to be exact.
While all the liquid from all over the Myriad Foxes Academy were congregating in the sky, and it flew towards Tang Li Xue''s martial soul at once. All of that liquid covered Tang Li Xue''s martial soul like a cocoon!
At first, the cocoon was only as big as a ser ball and covered the palm-sized Flying Golden Fish''s ethereal body perfectly but the cocoon''s size started to grow bigger and bigger until it was several tens of meters tall in size!
The dark gold sun me kept entering Deep Blue me Phoenix, and it was already forming the dark gold-colored veins and meridians inside Deep Blue Phoenix''s me body!
The scorching deep blue me from its body also started to mix with the powerful dark gold sun me while the crimson-colored me in its body began to fade and almost vanish as if it was devoured by the dark gold me as its tribute!
Tang Li Xue''s breathes and heartbeats were getting weaker and weaker. Even the vitality and life aura in her body almost extinct.
She used herst strength to extend her trembling limp paws and take out herst [Substitute Doll] from her system inventory but the [Substitute Doll] slipped out from her weak grasp and fell beside her.
She did not have any more energy to move any of her feeble limbs anymore. Her eyelid was also getting heavier and heavier.
Despite knowing that if she died, she would also drag down the Deep Blue me Phoenix and her martial soul with her.
She also did not know what will happen to Yaya if she died but it should not be something good to know.
But she could not help it at all!
She was too exhausted!
''I am sorry everyone... This is all my fault for being so weak... I promise to repay all of you in my next life... Goodbye...''
Yaya was the first to realize Tang Li Xue''s critical condition, and she opened her emerald green eyes in an instant!
Yaya turned herself into a green light and entered Tang Li Xue''s forehead!
[Divine Possession]!
Although Yaya was also currently facing the most important part of her evolution, she still decided to enter [Divine Possession] mode with Tang Li Xue to prolong Tang Li Xue''s life even for just a little bit!
The cocoon made from the countless galloon of liquid also flew toward Tang Li Xue and swallowed her feeble furry figure into it!
Tang Li Xue''s martial soul, [Flying Golden Fish] also decided to enter back into her mind in the split moment, in order to decrease Tang Li Xue''s head-splitting pain and allow her to regain her ability to think for a few moments!
Moreover, its rich water elemental was the perfect counter for the raging Yang Sun energies in Tang Li Xue''s body, and it has the ability to decrease all cold or ice elemental damage by more than 50%! Although, it was not enough topletely suppress the intense heat and freezing coldness, but it was enough to reduce her pain considerably!
The Deep Blue Phoenix also snorted coldly in displeasure and annoyance, but it flew back into Tang Li Xue''s body.
Assimtion!
The Deep Blue Phoenix assimted back with Tang Li Xue increased her resistance to heat by arge amount!
All the damage Tang Li Xue currently received right now was decreased to only a few hundred and itpletely countered by her [Regeneration] skill.
Tang Li Xue was still feeling a lot of pain, but it was not unbearable as before. she also still assaulted by unbearable itchiness on all over her fleshes thanks to her body that still growing bigger and bigger now.
However, all of this did not mean that Tang Li Xue and the others already passed the critical moment of their evolution!
They only decided to face it together instead of face it separately like before!
The huge eye of the vortex changed the direction of its descent towards the cocoon of liquid. The liquid also kept absorbed into Tang Li Xue''s every pore made her extremely suffocating, but it alleviated the extreme heat inside her body.
The dark gold me also instantly burst out from the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] inside Tang Li Xue''s dantian as if it was provoked by the Deep Blue me Phoenix that was currently assimted with Tang Li Xue!
As if all of those were not enough yet, the twin moons and one sun on the skies fell down like three gigantic meteorites and their target was also Tang Li Xue herself!
''Holysh*t! This is insane! For God''s Sake, I only evolve into [Umon] grade and not into spirit beast grade! Why the hell is the difficulty so high?!'' Tang Li Xue cursed in her heart, but her mind was still thinking so hard trying to find the way out from this critical life-threatening situation.
Although these twin moons and one sun were not the real ones and only the phenomenon created by the moon energies in Tang Li Xue''s body, the Crystal Moon Gem, and the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl], but the lethality of these three was not a mere illusion!
If they really hit Tang Li Xue''s tiny fragile body, she would certainly evaporate into nothingness!
Tang Li Xue looked around trying to find herst [Substitute Doll], but unfortunately, it has thrown off quite far away from her because of the violent vortex, and she currently could not move out from the cocoon of liquid!
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as her topaz blue eyes shone with intense determination to live.
''Hopefully, this really works! The [Talisman of Invulnerability] activate!'' Tang Li Xue took out a golden talisman from her system inventory with her paws and tapped it onto her furry body.
The faint golden light covered Tang Li Xue''s entire body from inside out, protecting every corner of her body, mind, soul, and internal organs along with Yaya, Deep Blue me Phoenix, and her martial soul that was currently assimting with her!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM~~!!!
The four deadly phenomenons exploded out at the same time destroying the beautiful courtyard along with everything around it!
The violent rolling shockwave swept everything on its way, blowing all the dust and dry sand away!
The earth-shattering explosion rocked the entire north education area made every fox there felt scared and wary.
The beautiful courtyard along with the area around it was already evaporated to nothingness, only leaving a huge deep hole. There was only a single pir that stood at the center deep hole, and a giant hardened white cocoon lied on the top of that pir.
The giant white cocoon''s surface was so smooth just like a giant white crystal egg.
It fact, this white cocoon was condensed from the crystallization of the elementals'' pure energies after the explosion phenomenon.
The giant white cocoon kept shrinking at the unbelievable fast pace as if something inside it kept devouring it.

Chapter 166 - 166: Imperial Sun and Moon Fox!
The white crystal cocoon stopped shrinking after it reached 2 meters tall.?The color of the white crystal cocoon also slowly turned grey.
Crack... Crack... Crack... BAAAAANGGGG~~!!!
Finally, the countless cracks started to spread on the grey cocoon''s surface, and it shattered to dust revealing a figure enveloped by a dim silvery-white light inside it.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her eyes.
Her right eye was shining with golden light, while her left eye was shining with silver-white light.
Both of them shone brightly from the deepest part of her topaz blue eyes made them look really mesmerizing and imposing at the same time.
However, the golden and silver light slowly faded away as her eyes returned to normal.
Tang Li Xue used her [Energy Maniption] to create a mirror in front of her, and the silver light condensed in front of her formed a round mirror in an instant.
Tang Li Xue used that silver mirror to immediately inspected her new look excitedly.
Her fox form has grown up bigger from the cat-sized before to the Siberian Husky-sized now.
Her soft and smooth fur was also shining brighter with silvery light under the moonlight now.
There were also three fox tails currently fluttering behind her. Two tails were silver-colored just like her fur and thest one looked as if it condensed from the golden-colored me.
''Eh... wait a minute... Don''t all the [Umon] grade foxes only have two tails?! Then how the hell can I have three tails now?!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes widened in surprise.
''Don''t tell me that I have skipped one grade and went straight to [Rare] grade?! Muehehehe... Let''s check it!'' Tang Li Xue grinned in a silly manner and opened her system window.
But before she had enough time to peek at her current status window...
"MY FAVORITE COURTYARD! MY RARE AND PRECIOUS BEAUTIFUL PLANTS AND FLOWERS! OH NO, NO, NO, NO... PLEASE DON''T TELL ME... EVEN MY NINE COLORED GOLD FISHES TOO?! AAAAARRRRGGGHHH!!!" A deafening shouting voice rang out from above Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue almost passed out from the pressure exuded from the deafening shouting voice, because she was in her weakest condition right now.
She was not only exhausted with all of her stamina expended but also many of her internal organs were still injured severely. Although, she was recovering rapidly under her [Regeneration] skill right now, but she was far from being fully recovered now.
Moreover, the person that came just now was actually a high-level spirit beast rank fox.
With her current sharp sense after evolution, Tang Li Xue could easily sense the faint terrifying pressure hidden inside this handsome ck-haired man.
The ck-haired man''s handsome face turned pale like a piece of white paper, and he even grabbed his hair in frustration and despair with both of his hands. His pair of obsidian ck eyes turned bloodshot, and he looked so awfully terrifying right now.
Tang Li Xue really regretted it so badly that she did not use her [Ethereal Form] earlier to sneak away from this ce as soon as she can. Unfortunately, it was already toote for her.
It was certainly impossible for her to escape from this kind of old monster right now, so she would rather choose to apologize than got killed on the spot by this monsterter.
Unfortunately, before Tang Li Xue could say anything, the ck-haired man already stared at her full of fury and shouted right in front of her face in anger: "Who the hell are you?! Where are youing from?! Do you know this is the restricted area in the education district?! I don''t care about who you are but you mustpensate me for everything even if you must sell your body and beast core! Do you hear me?! EVERYTHING!"
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently as the cold sweat poured out from her forehead.
It only took her a single nce to assess that this entire beautiful heavenly courtyard before was full of precious rare flowers and nts. Especially that rainbow-colored fished in the pond!
She would probably never be able topensate for everything even if she sold her body and beast core.
''Oh wait a minute! I have the [Awakening Stone]! It should be enough topensate for everything! But it already assimted with my mind, and it currently resided inside my sea of consciousness so I cannot take it out anymore... Tsk...'' Tang Li Xue''s mind spun faster tried to think a solution to solve her current problem.
''Oh yeah, I also have the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]! But it already assimted with my dantian right now, and I also cannot take it out anymore...'' Tang Li Xue almost coughed out a mouthful of blood when she remembered almost all of her precious items already bound to her including her system and all of the items from it.
Fortunately, her savior came at the right time to save the damsel in distress.
A slender beautiful figure descended from the starry night skies while bringing a silver fox dead body in her arms.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter when she saw this slender beautiful woman.
"Instructor Lan! Please help me! I... I swore I really did not do this on purpose!" Tang Li Xue ran toward the beautiful ck-haired woman with teary eyes.
"Who are you? Wait... this voice is... Little Xue?! Are you really Little Xue?!" Instructor Mei Lan''s body shook violently, and she dropped the dead body in her arms onto the ground in shock and disbelief.
Tang Li Xue looked at the fox dead body on the ground and shocked silly by it too since this was the first time Tang Li Xue saw the fake corpse created by her [Substitute Doll].
Instructor Mei Lan looked at Tang Li Xue skeptically and her suspicion has grown a lot stronger when she saw Tang Li Xue''s shocked expression.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue''s current form was a bit different from the previous Tang Li Xue. Not only her current fox form was a bit bigger but she also looked more elegant and heroic than before.
"Yes! Instructor Lan, I am the true original Tang Li Xue! This corpse is the fake one I created so I can pass the tribtion safely before! That''s why I got teleported randomly in the end and identallynded here! This... This is all really an ident!" Tang Li Xue tried to exin everything to Instructor Mei Lan in panic.
Tang Li Xue took out the dpidated book contained the [Art of Concealment] from her space pouch and show it to Instructor Mei Lan: "Look this is your first gift for me after I sessfully passed the second trial and decided to join your Instructor ss before!"
Instructor Mei Lan''s obsidian ck eyes shone brighter when she saw the dpidated book in Tang Li Xue''s paws but she still needs to confirm it for onest time to be more sure: "Try to use your stealth-type divine ability! I want to see it!"
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and her furry bodypletely vanished into thin air.
The moment after Tang Li Xue''s body turned transparent, Instructor Mei Lan threw a fast powerful jab to where Tang Li Xue stood before.
Instructor Mei Lan''s jab was too fast that it looked as if her fist has vanished and it was impossible for the current exhausted Tang Li Xue to dodge it, but Instructor Mei Lan''s fist passed through her transparent body harmlessly.
After tested Tang Li Xue''s divine ability, Instructor Mei Lan started to smile gently like always as her heart feel relieved from her previous guilty.
Instructor Mei Lan embraced Tang Li Xue''s furry body after she canceled her [Ethereal Form] and appeared again.
"Wee back... Little Xue." Instructor Mei Lan whispered gently to Tang Li Xue.
"Lan''er, you... you know her?" The ck-haired man dropped his jaw in shock when he saw the heartwarming scene in front of his eyes and asked in bewilderment.
The handsome ck-haired man, the owner of this courtyard was actually Instructor Mei Lan''s father, Education Councillor Junjie!
"But... But I don''t care! She still mustpensate me back for everything even if you know her! Do you know how much I spent to make this heavenly courtyard? I almost went bankrupt to build this heavenly courtyard before! And you... you dare to destroy everything!" Councillor Junjie shouted once again in anger after he remembered his previous beloved courtyard where he always tended every nt, flower, and fish carefully like raising his own child before.
He already put the restricted area warning here to prevent any foxes from identally entered here. He even installed the invisible barrier to made this courtyard invisible from the outside, and he also installed the space barrier to made it impossible for any outsider to step their foot into here.
He did not know what this imp did before to pass all of those barriers but she still managed to sneak into here despite all of those barriers and even destroyed itpletely without leaving any stalk of grass behind!
If Councillor Junjie was not a healthy strong high-level spirit beast but a weak old man instead, he would probably have an acute heart attack by now and died on the spot.
"Oh, shut up old man! Is there any need for you to be so angry?! This is just a single courtyard! Just pick another courtyard for you to live! I also remember that mother almost divorced you several times because of this damned courtyard! It''s good for this courtyard to be destroyed for my student''s evolution! At least this courtyard still has some purposes!" Instructor Mei Lan viciously scolded Councillor Junjie back.
"Lan''er... You... You... I never think that you will..." Councillor Junjie was breathing heavily, while pointed his trembling index finger at Instructor Mei Lan with a wronged expression.
"You what?! I will tell mother that you still secretly build this heavenly courtyard behind her back despite her stern warning to divorcing you before! I want to know what mother will do next after she knew about this!" Instructor Mei Lan grinned mischievously at Councillor Junjie.
Councillor Junjie coughed violently, when he heard Instructor Mei Lan''s threatening words.
While Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock. Even her brain felt like it was just short-circuited and made her could not process the meaning of Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
"What are you talking about? I don''t understand it at all! Which courtyard? Where? I don''t see any courtyard here! Sigh... it looks like my mind has been clouded by illusion before! That damn Zi Hua, how dare she used such a powerful bewilderment talisman on me! Lan''er, I will go home now, and don''t forget to return home earlier tonight!" Councillor Junjie said with a firm tone full of righteous aura.
There was no longer any trace of anger or frustration on his face as if everything was really only an illusion before.
Councillor Junjie flew away as fast as he could after he said all of thoseme excuses. His speed was so swift that Tang Li Xue only saw himpletely vanished from where he stood before.
Tang Li Xue was blinking and blinking her topaz blue eyes again in a dumbfounded manner.
She did not know what this ck-haired man connection with her Instructor Mei Lan but they sure looked pretty close with each other.
"Let''s go!?You must be really exhausted right now. I will escort you back to residential building." Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently to Tang Li Xue and took out a hovering disc from her space pouch.
The palm-sized hovering disc erged when Instructor Mei Lan threw it onto the ground.
Instructor Mei Lan pulled Tang Li Xue, and both of them rode on the hovering disc. The hovering disc soared onto the starry night skies and brought them to the residential building.
It only took them a few minutes for them to reach the residential building with this hovering disc''s speed.
Tang Li Xue jumped down from the hovering disc and bid her farewell to Instructor Mei Lan beforeing back to her room.
Tang Li Xue entered her bedroom, and she checked the other current condition curiously.
Yaya waspletely exhausted after finished her evolution, so she already fell asleep in the system storage.
Deep Blue me Phoenix was also the same. It fell asleep in exhaustion inside her dantian but the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] kept nourishing its deep blue me body continuously and kept making it stronger bit by bit.
Tang Li Xue''s martial soul also in deep sleep right now, and she could not summon it out to check its current form.
Tang Li Xue lied down on her soft bed and m.o.a.ned loudly because of howfortable it was.
She opened her status window to check her new stats and her new divine ability but her eyelid grew too heavy for her to see anything, and she identally fell asleep too before she could take a peek on her status window in her system.
Chapter 167 - 167: Powerful Abilities One After Another!
Chapter 167 - 167: Powerful Abilities One After Another!
Unknowingly, Tang Li Xue already fell asleep for three days and three nights. She only woke up on the fourth day at noon.
Tang Li Xue''s long silver eyshes were fluttering slightly as she slowly opened her topaz blue eyes.
Tang Li Xuezily stretched her furry slender body like azy cat while her mouth yawned widely.
She walked in a daze towards the bathroom and took a bath to clean the dry blood and dirt that stuck on her body.
After taking a bath, her mind cleared up a lot, and she hastily opened her status window in her system.

.
Tang Li Xue was grinning widely when she saw her species already changed into Imperial Sun and Moon Fox.
But her smile vanished when she saw her current grade was still [Umon], and she became a bit gloomy and disappointed.
''So I am still [Umon] grade after all. Sigh... What a letdown! Oh well, at least I can get more stats points and Skill Points this way. Let''s see what''s new this time!'' Tang Li Xue licked her lips and checked again.
Blue Phoenix of Pride''s Embryo Form already changed into Fetal Form in her window status.
Tang Li Xue went out of her two-story house towards her courtyard.
She tried to summon the Blue Phoenix of Pride out but it still asleepfortably in her Dantian so she had no other choice other than give up for now.
Tang Li Xue opened Yaya''s status window and peeked at it for a moment.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
.
[Extreme Speed]: Increase cast time speed and attack speed by 6 times; Increase maximum movement speed by 5 times; Increase the effect of Agility status by 4 times.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently when she saw this divine ability''s effect.
''How the hell is this called divine ability?! It should be called Godly ability instead!'' Tang Li Xue smiled happily.
With Yaya became stronger, it means she would also be stronger when she entered [Divine Possession] form with Yaya. Of course, she also worried that Yaya will eat more from now on, and she was afraid that the credits in her bronze card would no longer enough to feed Yaya until fullter.
''Sigh... It looks like I need to work harder from now on so I can feed Yaya with more delicious delicaciester.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head and checked Yaya''s next divine ability.
[Wind God''s Eyes]: Eyes that capable to see through any kind of movement no matter how fast it is and predict the next few moves urately.
''Damn! Another OP divine ability! With that [Extreme Speed] and this [Wind God''s Eyes], Yaya may have already be the best speed fighter!'' Tang Li Xue agape in shock on how could Yaya''s divine abilities matched her so perfectly.
Unfortunately, Yaya''s weakness could also clearly be seen from her small maximum HP even though he already reached [Rare] grade. It was apparent that Yaya was the full speed type fighter, almost untouchable by her enemies, but her enemies also only need tond a few powerful critical blows to defeat her.
Tang Li Xue pressed the > button on Yaya''s status window to summon her out from the system space.
Yaya pounced to Tang Li Xue the moment she summoned out. She immediately embraced Tang Li Xue and rained Tang Li Xue with many kisses on cheeks.
"Hahaha... That''s ticklish! Okay, Yaya let me see how big you have grown!" Tang Li Xue pulled Yaya away from her and observed Yaya''s current appearance carefully.
Yaya''s two pairs of crystal-like fairy wings have increased to four pairs of crystal-like fairy wings.
There was a silver tiara decorated with many glittering green emeralds on the top of Yaya''s head.
Even her green colored leaf dress also transformed and became even more grand and elegant. Her green hair looked more neat and silky than before.
Yaya''s body remained small as big as a human a.d.u.l.t palm, but her appearance and figure looked a lot more mature and beautiful than before.
Even Tang Li Xue found it hard to look away once she stared at the current gorgeous Yaya.
After a while, Yaya hugged Tang Li Xue once again like a spoiled child, and it woke Tang Li Xue up from her daze.
"Okay, beautiful Princess Yaya! Let''s us both see what my martial soul''s current form looks like!" Tang Li Xueughed while joking around with Yaya.
Tang Li Xue decided to check her martial soul''s current status at her system window first before summoning it outter.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
.
''Woah, so many new skills! It looks like my martial soul also getting more and more OP along with my growth! It seems this martial soul of mine can finally be used in battle.'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering brightly, and she impatiently checked all of its skills'' effect.
[High Water Affinity]: Golden-Winged Serpent is the king of the river. It would be a lot stronger in the water (the effect would only activate in the ce with a lot of water).
*Increased movement speed by 5 times.
*Increased all stats by 3 times.
*Increased all of its water/ice elemental attack by 200%.
*Decreased all water/ice elemental damage received by 80%.
''This [High Water Affinity] is twice more powerful than [Water Affinity] from before!'' Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction.
[High-Speed Flight] was the same skill as what Yaya has. It increased the flying speed greatly.
Its [Refining Spirit Energy] has been also upgraded, and it could finally produce mid-tier spirit stone! For every ten days...
''Tsk! Ten days to condense one mid-tier spirit stone is too long!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance before continued to check the other skills.
[Tidal Wave]: Calling all the water in 5 Kilometers radius as tidal wave flooding the area around the user with water.
''Oh my God... This skill is too OP! But it will also destroy the surrounding public property so I must use it carefully.'' Tang Li Xue has a mixed feeling when she saw this skill. She was really d, but the destruction of public property like the heavenly courtyard from a few days ago left some scars in her mind.
She was even almost forced to sell herself as a ve topensate for it if not for Instructor Mei Lan came at the right timing to save her.
[Summon Rain] was just like its name. The [Golden Winged Serpent] will call the rain. There was nothing special about it but it could be used in a dry ce like the desert to collect some water.
[Healing Bubble]: Covered the target with a water bubble to increase the HP regeneration for 300% and heal the target for 500 HP every second.
''Tsk! Atst, a healing type of skill! This will be a life-saving skill if it is used at the right time!'' Tang Li Xue smiled in excitement when she saw this skill.
[Water Control] was also easy to understand. It granted the [Golden Winged Serpent] the ability to control the surrounding water like its own limbs.
[Greater Water Sense] increased the [Golden Winged Serpent] sense in water in a far wider radius than the [Water Sense] from before.
The effect of [Lucky Halo], [Recovery buff], and [Haste] also increased by twice.
[Aura of Regeneration]''s effect was to increase the HP regeneration by 50%.
While [Golden Scale] and [Dragon Blessing] were the passive skills exclusive for the [Golden Winged Serpent] itself.
.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Golden Scale]: The golden scale that is only possessed by the dragon descendants.
*Increase the HP by 5 times.
*Increase HP regeneration by 200%.
*Increase elemental and physical defense by 3 times.
* Reduce any damage received by 30%.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Dragon Blessing]: The blessing given only to the dragon descendants.
*Increase the strength by 300%.
* Elemental and physical attack increased by 200%.
*Increase stamina by 400%.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
.
''Holysh*t! With these two passive skills and that [High Water Affinity], just how strong my martial soul will be! I almost can''t wait to test its current strength!'' Tang Li Xue licked her lips with her eyes burning with desire to try.
Tang Li Xue tried to summon out her martial soul with her will to look at its current form.
ROOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRR~~!!!
The loud violent roar shook the entire courtyard when more than ten meters long [Golden Winged Serpent] appeared in front of Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue instantly fell in love with her martial soul''s current form.
Its three meters wide golden wings looked so imposing and majestic like a pair of powerful arms. While its long golden scaly body made it almost like a Chinese dragon rather than a serpent.
Unfortunately, it still did not have any sharp ws or horns like how the dragon should be.
The long [Golden Winged Serpent] lowered its head docilely and let Tang Li Xue patted its big head gently with her paw.
It even groanedfortably after Tang Li Xue patted its head for a while.
Tang Li Xue tried to touch its wide golden wings with her paws. It felt hard like a metal te but the edge of the golden wings was really sharp like des.
If [Golden Winged Serpent] used both of its golden wings to attack its foes, the effect would be the same as wielding dual sabers with both hands. Moreover, its golden wings could also be used as a pair of shields.
Overall, Tang Li Xue''s current [Golden Winged Serpent] was the full-fledged metal tanker equipped with healing skill and support buffs.
Tang Li Xue stored the majestic [Golden Winged Serpent] into her mind again as her eyes shone with firm determination.
Now she has two powerfulpanions, she certainly did not want to be left behind by them or became a burden for them.
''Hopefully, my new divine ability is very powerful too, so I can match those two growths! It will be very embarrassing if I am weaker than them even after I evolve.'' Tang Li Xue started to feel nervous when she wanted to check her new divine ability.
However, before she could check her new divine ability, there were two new things that caught her attention: the [Battle Style] under divine ability and Spirit stat value under the Toughness stat.
''What the hell is this Spirit stat? Why Yaya and my [Golden Winged Serpent] don''t have this value? And also... what is this Imperial Moon Dancer Battle Style?'' Tang Li Xue frowned deeper in confusion when she did not find any clue about these two things.
Tang Li Xue looked a boulder near the pond beside her two-story house.
She tried to use the [Moon Splitter] from Moon Dancer Battle Style on the boulder.
[Moon Splitter]!
Tang Li Xue subconsciously waved both of her paws as if executing the cross chop with both of her paws. Each of her paws shot out one silver light sh cutting the boulder into four parts.
Tang Li Xue was really surprised and she stared at both her paws dumbfoundedly.
When she checked the boulder, the surface where she cut using her [Moon Splitter] before was so smooth like the mirror surface. It was clear that silver light shes were exceedingly sharp to be able to make this kind of cut.
''STRONG! This skill is so strong! Muahahaha... Now I have something I can rely on just like Yaya''s [Cyclone sh]!'' Tang Li Xueughed maniacally in bliss.
''Then how about this spirit stat? What is the use of this stat? Hmm... Let''s try to raise it for a bit to see its effect!'' Tang Li Xue tried to put 100 of her free stat points to Spirit stat.
Her mind was immediately assaulted by a great headache, dizziness, and nausea. She closed her eyes and gritted her teeth to withstand it.
Fortunately, the painful feeling onlysted for a few moments andpletely vanished after that.
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes, she could feel everything on her surrounding clearer. Her mind could also think much faster than before.
''This is awesome! I still don''t know any other effect of this spirit stat clearly but I have a hunch that this spirit stat is the same important as the other three stats! No, it might be even more important than the other three stats!'' Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw and widened her eyes in shock.
Chapter 168 - 168: Two OP Divine Abilities!
Chapter 168 - 168: Two OP Divine Abilities!
Tang Li Xue wanted to raise her Spirit stat even more, but she decided to put it on hold when she remembered that head-splitting headache she felt before.
''I should do it bit by bitter, rather than put my free stats at once like before to prevent any bad side effect from afflicting my soul.''?Tang Li Xue thought for a while and decided to put off on increasing her Spirit stat forter.
Tang Li Xue felt a bit proud when she realized her current maximum HP already reached 99,999.
She should have more than that with her current Toughness stat but it seems 99,999 was already the maximum amount for the [Umon] grade demonic beast, and if she wanted to increase it even more, then she needs to evolve into [Rare] grade demonic beast first.
Actually, Tang Li Xue''s total current stats alreadyparable with any [Rare] grade demonic beast since she had innate type divine abilities that tripled her Strength, Agility, and Toughness stats from 900 to 2,700!
Added another 1,900 stats she got from her human cultivation, all three of her stats already reached 4,600!
However, all of those were only the numbers in the end. Fighting in real life or death battle waspletely different from fighting in the RPG game.
As long as Tang Li Xue could not use all of her skills and divine abilities proficiently to the fullest like how Instructor Mei Lan can, all of those were just empty numbers.
Tang Li Xue observed all of her divine abilities one by one and found two new divine abilities among them: [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] and [Twin Moons].
Just from the name, Tang Li Xue could tell that these two divine abilities must be really powerful.
Tang Li Xue already had [Sun Dragon w] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] before, so this [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] should be also the part of the Sun Dragon Inheritance.
Tang Li Xue took out a table from the house and put in the middle of the courtyard for the target of practice and withdrew for a few meters away from it.
[Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes]!
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue right eye was glowing with zing golden light like a fiery sun and...
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
The table was engulfed by the deep blue me and dark gold me leaving nothing behind in an instant.
Tang Li Xue agape in shock and her heart started to palpitate in excitement.
''Hehehehe... Muahahahaha... Atst, another OP divine ability at my disposal! With this divine ability, I, Tang Li Xue already take another?step further into the road of invincibility!'' Tang Li Xueughed maniacally.
Tang Li Xue took out several other furniture from the house and test the [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes]''s power several times.
In short, [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes]''s ability was tobust any target in Tang Li Xue''s right eye vision regardless even if that target was hiding behind the barrier or the shield, as long as that target still in Tang Li Xue''s right eye vision, then that target will never be able to dodge, avoid, parry, or defend from her me at all!
This [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] was far even more dangerous than the previous two: [Sun Dragon w] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] since it could even regard the range! As long as the target was still in Tang Li Xue''s right eye vision, she could practically set it aze!
Moreover, its effect was instantaneous!
Of course, there were also several ws in this [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] since there was no such thing as perfect divine abilities, only perfect divine abilities'' user that ever exist.
The first w was this [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] could only lock on one target in Tang Li Xue''s vision for now.
Yes, it was only for now! This [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] itself was super powerful, but Tang Li Xue was not able to fully control it yet so she could only lock on one target every time she used it.
The second w was it cost a lot of energies each time Tang Li Xue used it, so she could only use it for three to five times before all of her energies werepletely dried.
The third w was that she could only lock the target she could see with her right eye, so if the target turned invisible she could no longer lock it with this [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] anymore.
Despite all of its ws, Tang Li Xue was very satisfied with this [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] since the firepower of this divine ability was the highest amongst all of her current divine abilities.
''Tsk! With this divine ability, I can st anyone I don''t like to cinder! But I must not use it carelessly in training, this divine ability''s firepower is really horrible after all. Who knows if I identally killed someone close to me if I am not careful...'' Tang Li Xue nodded with a solemn expression.
She decided to seal this [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] along with [Sun Dragon w] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] while in Myriad Foxes Academy to not attract any old monsters with bad intention.
Tang Li Xue took out another furniture from the house to try herst new divine ability: the [Twin Moons].
Since the [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] was so powerful, Tang Li Xue believed that this [Twin Moons] should not be that weakpared to it.
[Twin Moons]!
When Tang Li Xue activated her [Twin Moons], her left topaz blue eye was glowing with mysterious silvery light.
But the furniture in front of her did not shatter or explode like what she had expected.
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw, and she almost fainted when she saw the furry figure stood in front of her.
The furry figure was as big as a Siberian husky. It has smooth silver-colored beautiful fur. It also has two silver tails and one golden me tail fluttering behind it.
Its slender furry figure was so heroic and majestic with the air of nobility emitting out from its body.
Well, that silver furry figure waspletely identical to Tang Li Xue herself.
Tang Li Xue has almost fainted on the spot but not because she was too surprised or too shocked but because she was too disappointed with this [Twin Moons]''s effect.
''How useless! Even that thief fox''s [shadow clone] divine ability can create six clones when I copied it before, and this [Twin Moons] can only create one clone! Come on! How could the original divine ability I got from my evolution be this trashy?!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in annoyance and frustration.
She opened her status window to check the effect of this [Twin Moons] divine ability.
.
-------------------------------------------------------
[Twin Moons]: Made one true copy of the user. The copy will have 100% of the user''s stats, divine abilities, skills, martial arts, etc. The copy will be able to do everything the user can do.

-------------------------------------------------------
.
''Oh My Gawd!!! 100% of all my stats?! It can even use all of my skills and divine abilities?! What the hell! Doesn''t it mean this copy is as strong as the current me?!'' Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in disbelief.
Tang Li Xue nervously sent her will to her copy. She ordered her copy to use the [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] to the furniture in front of her.
However, the copy only stood there looking nkly at the furniture without doing anything.
''Eh? What''s wrong? Why it did not do anything? Is it short-circuiting or something? Oiiii... burn that furniture for me!'' Tang Li Xue pped her copy''s furry head with her paw just like when she tried to fix the broken old TV but her copy still stood there without doing anything.
''Tsk! Let''s try [Moon Splitter] then!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue impatiently.
The copy raised both of its paws and waved it with cross chop movement. It shot out two silver shes out.
BAAAAAAAAANG~~!!!
The furniture was cut into four parts in an instant.
''Oh? It can use it? Not bad! Not bad! Hehehe... Let''s try to do [Ethereal Form] next!'' Tang Li Xue giggled and sent another order with her mind.
Her clone''s furry body instantly turned transparent and vanished from Tang Li Xue''s view.
After using several hours to experiment with her [Twin Moons] divine ability until the skies outside turned dark, Tang Li Xue finally managed to grasp some crucial information about it.
For example, this copy could not use three divine abilities: [Sun Dragon w], [Sun Dragon Fangs], and [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes]. Because these three divine abilities were linked with the bloodline inheritance from [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in her Dantian.
The copy could not use the deep blue me of Pride since only the original Tang Li Xue that assimted with Deep Blue Phoenix of Pride.
The copy also could not enter [Divine Possession] with Yaya, only the original Tang Li Xue could do that.
Thest one thing was the copy could not summon Tang Li Xue''s martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent], only the original could summon it out.
Tang Li Xue was not really disappointed since the [Twin Moons] divine ability already super powerful even without these four things.
''Well, this divine ability would probably too broken if my copy can even do all of those things. Hehehehe... Imagine if it can even summon out another one of the [Golden Winged Serpent]? It would probably be a nightmare for my opponents.'' Tang Li Xue sneered while shaking her head.
Apart from those four things, Tang Li Xue''s copy could basically do everything Tang Li Xue could!
However, the most crucial thing about this copy of hers was its [Damage Transfer] skill! It was truly a life-saving skill that granted Tang Li Xue with another extra life!
That [Swap] skill was also nasty for her foes if she used it suddenly during an intense battle.
The [Merge] skill was the most practical one since it doubled all of her stats for one hour, but unfortunately, she will need to sacrifice her clone for that.
The copy could even use Tang Li Xue''s other new divine ability, [Energy Maniption]!
Speaking of this [Energy Maniption], it was actually another OP divine ability!
However, it also had a huge w.
This [Energy Maniption] was too dependent on how many energies the user spent to create something from it.
For example, if Tang Li Xue used a tiny bit of her vitality energy to create a sword. That sword would probably only be a fragile sword that will break in one attack.
However, if she poured her entire vitality energy in her beast core, all of Qi in her Dantian and all of the spirit power in her soul, the sword she created would probably enough to obliterate the strong high level [Rare] grade demonic beast in one attack!
In short, the amount of energies she used to create something with this [Energy Maniption] will determine the durability, power, how long itsted, sharpness, quality, and many other aspects.
Tang Li Xue guessed that she could even insert several abilities into the item she condensed with this [Energy Maniption]ter if she has enough energy in the future.
It was already midnight after Tang Li Xue finished with all of her new divine abilities, so she decided to go back to her bedroom and sleep together with Yaya like usual.
.....
...
.
Yaya woke Tang Li Xue up very early as usual, and both of them took a bath together before prepared to leave their room to meet with everyone.
''Come to think of it, I have not checked my current human form yet after I evolved before. I wonder how I would look right now in my human form! Hopefully, I have graduated from my loli form and take the more mature form!'' Tang Li Xue silently prayed in her heart while activated her [Transfiguration: Human Form].
Chapter 169 - 169: Problem Comes Knocking!
Chapter 169 - 169: Problem Comes Knocking!
The blinding silver light covered Tang Li Xue''s entire furry figure.
A moment after the blinding silver light vanished, Tang Li Xue finally changed into her human form.
She excitedly ran into her bedroom and stood in front of the mirror at the dressing table to observe her current new look.
Her current height was 150cm-160cm tall now and looked like a fifteen or sixteen years old teenage girl. Her slender waistbined with her current bigger b.r.e.a.s.t made her look more mature than before.
Her smooth skin was still as white as snow, but the baby fat on her cheeks was thinning made her countenance looked less cute but far more stunning than before.
Her pinkish cherry blossom lips turned a bit redder made her looked more seductive.
Her beautiful pair of clear topaz blue eyes still looked innocent but with the added touch of heroic and noble aura that capable of mesmerizing all the people in the world, made everything seemed to lose color before her beauty.
Her long straight glistening silver hair was so smooth and silky but because she was a bit taller, her silver hair only reached up to her thigh now.
The beautiful girl in the mirror reflection possessed a far more stunning beauty than before, the kind that even made all the celestial beauties lose their charm before her, so beautiful that it was unreal like a fleeting dream.
Even Tang Li Xue herself could not stop staring at her own perfect reflection on the mirror for more than ten minutes.
After waking up from her daze, she scratched her head and grinned in embarrassment while blushing slightly because she was actually mesmerized by her own reflection on the mirror.
Tang Li Xue raised both of her lily-white hand and gently touched... her own chest and slowly fondle them.
''Tsk! Only B... No, this should be C cup. Hopefully, it can reach D cup after I evolve into [Rare] grade demonic beastter!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone with intense determination.
With this, Tang Li Xue somehow gained one more strong motivation to evolve further.
''But really... this current appearance of mine... is really too charming for my own good! I can already imagine how much trouble it would bring meter because of it. I also don''t want many people to flock on me as if they are watching a rare exotic beast.'' Tang Li Xue sat on her own bed and thought deeply for a few minutes.
Tang Li Xue''s previous loli appearance also really enchanting, but she still looked too young and immature. That was why so many people only took a nce at her for a while. They only thought how cute looking she was before, and they wanted to have a child as cute as her too.
However, her current stunning appearance was different. She did not want to attract any jealous women or possessive men''s attention like in the novel since it would waste too much of her time, and she prefers to use her time to increase her cultivation or inscription.
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to use her [Energy Maniption] to condense a fox mask like what instructor Mei Lan wore in the trial before.
The fox mask actually looked quite good as if it was carved from the white jade. It matched perfectly with her glistening silver long hair and smooth snow-white skin.
Tang Li Xue wore the fox mask to cover her charming face and went out of her room with Yaya.
Tang Li Xue knocked on the door of Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao''s room to wake them up so they could go to the education building together today.
However, the moment Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao opened their door, then they saw Tang Li Xue''s suspicious masked appearance, both of them immediately entered their battle mode.
Hei Yinghao dashed toward Tang Li Xue and thrust his sharp ws onto her neck while Bing Yi condensed several sharp ice spikes and shot it all toward Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was really surprised by their exaggerating reaction so she did not have any more time to dodge their attack.
Just when Yaya wanted to help Tang Li Xue to defend against their attack, Tang Li Xue sent a message with their connection to stop Yaya.
Tang Li Xue caught Hei Yinghao''s hand easily with her right hand, and she threw several quick jabs with her left hand, shattering all of Bing Yi''s sharp ice spikes.
Tang Li Xue stopped all of those attacks leisurely in one breath, she did not even use a tenth of her current strength.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi''s expression turned more solemn when they saw how strong Tang Li Xue was and they both wanted to attack her again.
"Wait! Stop! It''s me! What''s wrong with you guys?! Is there any need to be so vignt in this residential building?! Do you two want to get punished again like before?!" Tang Li Xue quickly shouted to stop them.
Tang Li Xue was also eager to spar with Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi to test her current strength, but she surely did not want to get punished because of that.
"This voice?! Little Xue? Little Xue, is that really you?" Bing Yi widened her eyes in surprise and asked.
Tang Li Xue also realized that her current voice was actually changed a bit. It became a lot of sweeter and mature than before. That''s why Bing Yi asked her again to make sure.
Tang Li Xue also did not know why since in reality, she did not really talk but only used her [Telepathy] skill tomunicate with others.
''Maybe because I am in [Umon] grade now?'' Tang Li Xue thought for a while before shaking her head and decided to forget it for now.
Tang Li Xue frowned a bit when she realized there were several bruises on Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao''s face.
At first, Tang Li Xue guessed that they got it from their fighting lesson with Instructor Mei Lan, but she immediately denied it, since they usually got taken to the medical ward after their fighting lesson, and all of their injuries would be curedpletely by the medical squad there.
"That''s right! It''s me! You two are really cruel! How can you two forget about me when I just took four days'' leave?!" Tang Li Xue chuckled and teased them.
"Xue! You... you are taller now! I... I am sorry for not recognizing you! But you are wearing a mask and look so suspicious so I... Xue, why are you wearing a mask now?" Hei Yinghao smiled bashfully and apologized to Tang Li Xue. He also asked Tang Li Xue curiously.
Bing Yi stared at Tang Li Xue too, waiting for her answer.
"Oh... Errr... how should I say it? There is an issue with my appearance after I evolve so I decided to use a mask from now on to cover it. I hope you all don''t mind it." Tang Li Xue touched her mask while she tried to exin it to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Her fox mask felt cold in her touch, but it also brought her some sense of security. She did not feel any difort at all. On contrary, she felt veryfortable when she was wearing it. Maybe it was because she condensed it from her own energies.
Tang Li Xue felt Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao stared at her with a pitiful gaze so she was asking them curiously: "Why are you two looking at me like that?"
"Little Xue... no matter what your current look has be... I swear to always be with you! You don''t need to worry about it! I hear there are many rare pills or miracle fruits that can make you more beautiful! I promise I will directly give it to you if someday I get a hold of it! I believe your look can be beautiful like before with it." Bing Yi put a solemn expression and said her vow with a stern tone.
Bing Yi even patted Tang Li Xue''s head gently like always tofort her.
Tang Li Xue stared at them with more confusion in her topaz blue eyes while thinking: ''More beautiful? No, no, no, I don''t need to be more beautiful than now. But I wonder, what do those fruits taste like? I want to taste it...''
"Xue! You... you don''t need to mind it! It does not matter how you look right now because I, Hei Yinghao will only love..." Hei Yinghao wanted to say his vow too but Bing Yi quickly kicked him away.
"What sc.u.m! How dare you take the chance when the maiden''s heart at the most fragile state to confess your feeling?! Are you a male or not?!" Bing Yi stared menacingly at Hei Yinghao and mocked him with a threatened tone.
"You two don''t need to worry, I am really okay. Let''s go to the education building now before we are toote! Look, even Li Jing and the others already go out from their room." Tang Li Xue persuaded them while pointing her finger at Li Jing and the others that went out of their room.
Li Jing also asked why Tang Li Xue wore a mask now when she saw Tang Li Xue but before Tang Li Xue could say anything, Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi already exined to Li Jing in an exaggerating manner as if her current appearance truly look so horrible like a monster and no one dares to look at it.
Tang Li Xue: "......"
''Oh well, I am toozy to exin it anyway. Just let them think whatever they want.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head and decided to not bother to exin it.
On their way out from the residential building, Tang Li Xue also realized that Li Jing, Gan Aomiao, and Huang Hao also had several bruises on their faces.
Tang Li Xue tried to ask the reason out of curiosity but the moment she asked about it, all of them were fuming with rage and started to spit out some curses from their mouth.
Of course, all of them did not angry with Tang Li Xue but to the ones that did those to them!
Li Jing felt Tang Li Xue also need to know about their situation right now, so she told their story to Tang Li Xue so Tang Li Xue could prepare herself for today''s ss.
Their story started four days ago when Instructor Mei Lan vanished out of sudden and only leaving them two notices.
The first notice was not to disturb Tang Li Xue''s rest because she was just evolved into [Umon] grade and need several days of rest before she could fully recover.
The second notice was that Instructor Mei Lan could not teach them for more or less one month since she had an urgent mission she needs toplete as soon as possible.
However, it did not mean that they will have the time to remain idle or rx as Instructor Mei Lan had already instructed all of them to attend the mixed sses from now onwards four days ago.
So Li Jing, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the others from Tang Li Xue''s ss joined the mixed ss filled with the other foxes from other sses since four days ago.
But who knows the students from the Executor ss provoked them first the moment Li Jing and the others entered the mixed ss!
Actually, Tang Li Xue, Li Jing, and the others did not know that all the instructors other than Mei Lan also gave their students a simr instruction to provoke the other sses students, and the instructors will also give them some rewards if they really did that.
Of course, the other instructors did not give their students the same exaggerating instruction as what Instructor Mei Lan gave to Tang Li Xue, Li Jing, and the others.
The purpose was to instill thepetitive spirit in all of the students'' hearts so all of them will have a strong determination to always improve themselves in order topete with the other students.
Li Jing, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the others did not mind the provocation from the Executor ss.
Li Jing and the others even dly epted the challenge from Executor ss students. They even put all of their credits as bet before epting the challenge.
Li Jing and the others even won several times, and it made their total credits increased by several times in only two days!
Everyone said gambling was very addictive, and it waspletely right! Even Li Jing and the others were also addicted to this and kept challenging the students from the Executor-ss.
Unfortunately, their winning streak was broken when their situation escted out of their control, and they got challenged by the student from the Elite ss on the third day.
The rule in Education Department stated that if the teams already had more than three times winning streak, then they could not refuse the challenge from the other teams so Li Jing and the others were forced to ept the challenge from the Elite ss student, betting all their credits, and lost to them so miserably in the end.
Only after they werepletely beaten ck and blue that they finally managed to find out about that Elite ss student''s true identity.
Chapter 170 - 170: Provocation!
Chapter 170 - 170: Provocation!
His name was Mogui, and he was actually the older brother of the [Demonic Blood Fox] who died on the second trial!
Apparently, he med his brother''s death on Tang Li Xue, Gan Aomiao, and the others since they participated in the same trial as his dead brother.
Mogui even swore in front of them and the other students that he would never forgive them for what they have done to his brother righteously, and he will teach them the harsh lesson by challenging them every time they got more than three winning streaks.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper after she heard their story and think: ''That Mogui is really an unreasonable fox for sure! He is the same type as his little brother. He feels right to bully other people... err... another foxes weaker than him but will feel injustice when the stronger foxes bullied him. Really a worse kind of sc.u.m!''
However, Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering brighter full of fighting spirit. She really wanted to test her current strength against a [Rare] grade fox from Elite ss like this Mogui.
Although they all were busily chatting in their way, but they still managed to arrive at the education building on time.
Tang Li Xue followed Li Jing and the others from behind, and they walked towards where the mixed ss was being held today.
When Tang Li Xue entered the mixed ss with the others, she realized that the students here wore three different colors of robe: blue, red, and ck.
Like what Instructor Mei Lan said to them before, blue-robed students were in Inspector ss just like them but under different instructors. The blood red-robed students were from Executor ss, while the ck-robed students were from Elite ss.
"Well, well, well... Look here, the arrogant Inspector ss students finally got their lesson! I wonder if you still dare to be so arrogant like before. Hahahaha... Oh, so scary, maybe I should call the senior from Elite ss back to teach you all a harsh lesson like yesterday! Hahaha..." One of the blood red-robed studentsughed out loud while mocking Tang Li Xue''s group.
"That''s what you get when you be too arrogant! Even dare to say something like you all will defeat every the Executor ss students! Serves you right!" The other blood red-robed students shouted at them.
Li Jing, Gan Aomiao, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao stared hatefully at the yellow thieving fox, Huang Hao but Huang Hao still acted as if he did not know anything.
From their reaction, Tang Li Xue could guess that the arrogant words of these blood red-robed students have said wasing from this stupid yellow thieving fox before.
Tang Li Xue and the others ignored all of their provocations and walked towards the several empty seats at the right corner of the ssroom.
However, several red-robed students quickly stood up from their seats and took several empty seats before Tang Li Xue''s group could sit on those seats.
At this moment, Tang Li Xue''s reason had really snapped out, and she grasped her fist tighter.
"Is this the best you all from the Executor ss can do?" Tang Li Xue asked with a chilling tone but her voice was still sweet to everyone''s ear like before.
"Of course not, sweetie! What? Do you want to have fun with all of us? But we must check your appearance first to see if it suits our taste. How about if you open your mask and let all of us see it?" The other red-robed student answered while sneered at Tang Li Xue.
"You! Even if our Little Xue''s face has been ruined because of her evolution, but it does not mean that you have any right to mock her appearance! Now apologize to Little Xue or I will... I will spit on you!" Huang Hao shouted angrily at the red-robed student.
Tang Li Xue: "..."
''They obviously never said anything about my appearance being ugly or ruined so why is your mouth bbering everything so loudly?! Sigh... If I did not know you since the trial, I would even start to suspect that you are in cahoots with them. Haihhh... So this is the legendary pig teammate?'' Tang Li Xue stared at Huang Hao, but she did not know if she must angry, cry, orugh at his stupidity.
''Oh well, this is more convenient for me anyway since I don''t need to exin to everyone or any instructors that teach in this mixes ss about why I wear a mask in the ss. I guess I must thank this thieving yellow fox for this.'' Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction in the end.
"Oooh? So your face is so unbearably ugly until you need to wear a mask to cover your face?! Tsk, tsk, tsk... and here I thought you are a great beauty since you have such a luscious voice, but who knows you are a super ugly b*tch pretending to be mysterious! You better wear that mask more tightly so no one will need to puke because of your disgusting face today." The female red-robed student stared at Tang Li Xue full of disgust, and she even put an act as if she wanted to puke out.
Hei Yinghao gritted his teeth until his gum bleed. He stepped out ready to fight until death with these Executor ss students, but Tang Li Xue quickly patted Hei Yinghao''s shoulder to calm him down.
"Xue! Please, don''t stop me! I must kill all of these bast*rds today or I will never be able to face you straight in the future!" Hei Yinghao red at all of the red-robed students, and his intense murderous intent made them shuddering a bit.
Tang Li Xue did not bother tofort Hei Yinghao as she stepped in front of him and stared back at all the red-robed students.
"Wh... what do you want?! Do you know it is forbidden to fight in the ssroom?! You will be punished harshly if you dare to attack us here!" The female red-robed student said to Tang Li Xue with a nervous tone.
All of these red-robed students already knew Tang Li Xue''s group true strength so they did not dare to challenge them directly, but they knew no one would dare to fight in the ssroom, which was why they dare to provoke Tang Li Xue''s group again and again.
"So stinky..." Tang Li Xue pinched the nose of her fox mask and acted as if she smelled something unpleasant.
"What?" The female red-robed student asked in confusion.
"All your mouth smells of shit! You all must be eating your own shit this morning! That''s why you all talk so much bullshit right now! Even all your body stenches of shit! Because what you all have done until now is nothing but bullshit! I believe you all will turn into shit someday if you keep doing your bullshit!" Tang Li Xue was spouting her mockery in one breath.
Hei Yinghao: "..."
Bing Yi: "..."
Li Jing and the others: "..."
The red-robed students: "..."
All the other students that made rowdy in the ssroom were dropped their jaw and stunned silly when they heard Tang Li Xue''s string of curses, and the ssroom turned silent for a few moments.
As the little sister of a gangster, sometimes she secretly heard her big brother curses other people like this in his phone behind her back, so she only needs to copy his big brother words to teach these ignorant foxes how to curses people properly.
"You... you..." The female red-robed student stuttered in anger until she did not know what to say any more while pointing her finger at Tang Li Xue.
"You what? You all, three chicken shitheads, are you three dare to ept my challenge?! The three of you against me alone?!" Tang Li Xue pointed at the three red-robed students and challenged them.
"You alone? Against the three of us?" The three red-robed students widened their eyes in shock.
"Xue!"
"Little Xue!"
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi called Tang Li Xue with a worried tone, and they tried to stop Tang Li Xue, but she remained firm about this since she wanted to test her current strength and new divine abilities.
In short, Tang Li Xue wanted to use these three Executor ss Students as her guinea pigs.
"Tsk... I thought you are quite strong and smart, but you are just another big-mouthed idiot! Really scare me to death! So it''s true that the newborn calves are not afraid of tigers! Alright then, we ept! So it''s you alone against the three of us, right?" The female red-robed student sneered at Tang Li Xue as if she wasughing at Tang Li Xue''s stupidity.
"That''s right! When are we going to do it?" Tang Li Xue nodded her head and asked with azy tone.
"Today after this ss is over then! We will wait for you, so don''t you dare to run away!" The male red-robed student stood up from his seat and answered Tang Li Xue coldly.
The other two red-robed students also stood up from their seats while sneered mockingly at Tang Li Xue and walked back to their previous seats.
Tang Li Xue also chuckled at them while thinking: ''The way of these three Executor students provoking us is not normal. They are too persistent and too exaggerating. I guess they probably get some rewards from their instructor and from that big brother of [Demonic Blood Fox] for doing this... That''s why they are so eager.''
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao wanted to say something to Tang Li Xue, but today''s mixed ss instructor already entered their ssroom, so they quickly sat on the empty seats in front of them.
The instructor was a beautiful woman with green short hair, even her pair of furry fox ears on the top of her head and her furry tail was also green.
She wore a light green dress that matched perfectly with her hair. She definitely could be a top supermodel in Tang Li Xue''s previous world.
Unfortunately, in the Myriad Foxes Academy where the beautiful women and handsome men were practically everywhere, this instructor''s appearance was only average among them.
But this instructor familiar aura was the ''girl next door'' type that made people feelfortable around her. Her soothing aura made her looked simple, kind, and approachablepared to the other instructors.
Even Tang Li Xue felt this green-haired instructor was probably a lot kinder than her sadist Instructor, Mei Lan.
"Good morning, everyone! I am your mixed ss instructor today, Su Jian. I am not your personal instructor, so you all can call me Teacher Su. Okay, everyone! Today I will teach you about our world geography. So please pay attention carefully because this lesson is quite important for you all!" Teacher Su showed them her simple smile and introduced herself with her soothing voice.
"The student over there... Please, put your feet off the table!" Teacher Su pointed her finger at one of the students and asked politely.
Everyone including Tang Li Xue looked at the student appointed by Teacher Su and realized the student was from the Elite ss since he was wearing a ck robe.
He sat while putting both of his feet on the table in front of him leisurely like a delinquent student from Tang Li Xue''s previous world.
Even after Teacher Su warned him, that Elite student only nodded slightly but he did not bother to put down her feet from the table.
Tang Li Xue frowned in displeasure, but she also understood from Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation before that all the Elite students from Elite ss were special, and even the Instructors could do nothing to them.
All of the Elite students from Elite ss were the precious assets of the Myriad Foxes Academy, and they were nurtured with the best resource. They were a very different breed from the Inspector ss students or the Executor ss students, where they need to provoke and fought with each other to prove themselves and gain recognition so they could join the Elite sster.
Just like what Tang Li Xue has expected, Teacher Su ignored the Elite Student''s insolent behavior and walked to the whiteboard in front of the ssroom.
When Teacher Su took the brush under the whiteboard, Tang Li Xue and the other thought that today''s lesson will finally begin, so they started to pay more attention to the whiteboard.
Teacher Su flicked the brush gently with her slender finger, and the brush vanished from her grasp.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
The insolent Elite Student flew backward like a cannon bullet and half of his upper body stuck on the solid wall behind the ssroom.
His body jerked violently a few times, but hepletely passed out after that.
All of the students in the ssroom dropped their jaws in shock, but Teacher Su ignored their dumbfounded reaction and say: "Okay kids! Let''s begin your lesson for today!"
''What the hell?! Instructor Lan is such a big liar! All the Elite Students are special my *ss! This Teacher Su is clearly almost killed that poor guy with only a single brush!'' Tang Li Xue almost cursed Instructor Mei Lan out loud in her heart.
That brush flew so fast. Even Tang Li Xue could not see anything after Teacher Su flicked it.
''Okay, I take back all of my words about this instructor is being a lot kinder than Instructor Lan... They are definitely from the same breed!'' Tang Li Xue thought while her mouth twitched a bit.
''But just how strong exactly is the standard of instructor''s strength?! I wonder how much strength Instructor Lan used when she sparred against the three of us before?! I should try to ask herter!''?Tang Li Xue decided.
No one dared to disrespect Teacher Su again this time, even the other Elite students did not dare to say or protest anything, and they behaved really well.
It was true, Teacher Su''s strength made them so frightening, but it was not only because of that. Her lesson this time was so eye-opening and crucial made them all did not dare to miss any of it.
The lesson was actually about the geography of the Immortal World and its current situation!
How many continents in the Immortal World, and just how strong was their Lightwind Continentpared to the others?
Why despite that all the beast races and the human race hate each other to the bone, but the war still did not break between them?
Teacher Su asked them questions one by one to entice their curiosity, and Tang Li Xue must admit Teacher Su really did it very well since all the students in the ssroom listened to her wholeheartedly this time.
Chapter 171 - 171: Immortal Worlds Topography!
Chapter 171 - 171: Immortal World''s Topography!
Including Lightwind Continent, there were a total of 72 continents in Immortal World.
Each of these continents was actually much bigger than the total surface of Tang Li Xue''s previous world.
However, the biggest continent among all was called the Central Continent.
If the Central Continent was like the ''body'' then the other 71 continents were only as big as ''finger'' or ''toe''.
The other 71 continents were scattered around the Central Continent''s periphery randomly.
The closer those continents to the Central Continent, the richer the spirit energies in theirnds!
The richer the spirit energies in theirnds, the stronger the creatures living there!
One of the blue-robed students raised her right hand and asked: "Teacher Su, doesn''t that mean all the creatures living in the Central Continent are the strongest?"
"Good question! That''s true but only half correct. The dense spirit energies there made all the creatures living there easier to break through to the higher stage or evolve further. But their research in Inscription technology and pill concocting are currently falling far behind us!" Teacher Su giggled while answered the student''s question earnestly.
"Actually, many powerful humans or beasts from the central continent areing into our continent in order to learn our knowledge, so you all don''t need to feel inferior to them. You all can even learn our Inscription technology and pill concocting knowledge first before heading to Central Continentter." Teacher Suforted all of the students in the ssroom.
Tang Li Xue thought it was all really make sense. Since the spirit energies in their continent have not dense enough, so they used cultivation pills or spirit gathering formations to help them increase their cultivation.
That was the reason why their Inscription technology and pill concocting knowledge were far more advanced than the central continent.
Teacher Su continued her lesson and exined it again.
The Central Continent was so vast and the spirit energies there was truly abundant, but it did not mean all the spirit energies there spreads equally in all the ces.
The center of the Central Continent was called the ''Core'' of the world. The closer the ce to the ''Core'' of the world, the denser the spirit energies will be!
This time one of the ck-robed Elite ss students raised her right hand and asked: "If the Central Continent is that big and the spirit energies there are so abundant then why are all of us not migrating there?"
"Great question! Good kid, the reward of 500 credits for you." Teacher Su pulled out her white jade badge, and a tiny white light shot out towards the ck-robed student''s silver badge.
The ck-robed student grinned happily after she received the reward without doing anything.
"To answer this question, we will need to go back to my previous question to you all about: ''why the Beast races like us and the Human race are not locked in war even though we hate each other so much?'' The Executor student over there, what do you think about this? You do not need to be so nervous or afraid, just say your opinion about this." Teacher Su pointed her finger to the red-robed student at the back of the ss.
The red-robed student stood up in surprise and answered Teacher Su while kept stuttering: "Me?! I... I think... Uhhh... maybe... we are wary toward each other strength so... that''s why the war has not broken out yet?"
"Unfortunately, that''s incorrect. How about that blue-robed student over there! Please tell me your opinion about this." Teacher Su pointed at Tang Li Xue this time.
Tang Li Xue stood up and answered in hesitation: "Err... Maybe we and the Human race are afraid that a third party will take advantage of us if we go to war against each other?"
"Half correct! Actually, our Beast races and Human race are already in the huge war against that ''third party'' which you are talking about for more than millions of years ago, and their battlefield is none other than the Central Continent!" Teacher Su said a shocking truth that made all the students in the ss stunned.
''What the hell?! Now I am really curious... just what kind of almighty ''third party'' that can face thebined force of beast races and the human race for more than millions of years without losing?!'' Tang Li Xue also agape in shock, but she still listened to Teacher Su''s lesson attentively.
Not long after that, Teacher Su also exined about the ''third party'' identity which made all the students including Tang Li Xue paled in horror.
UNDEAD RACE!!!
The true opponent of the Beast Race and Human Race in Central Continent was actually the Undead Race!
The Undead Race could devour the life force of any living creature they touched! Human, beast, nt, even the grass on the ground, they could devour their life force just by touching them, and all the ce ornd where they lived will definitely turn barren and devoid of all life!
They also could not be killed even if you beheaded them or cut them into half! The only way to kill them was to burn them with fire or lightning elementals or exorcist them with light elemental!
Moreover, their ''Necromancer'' ss could control many dead bodies and use them in the war against the Beast Races and the Human Race.
Even the join force of the Beast Race and Human Race were only barely strong enough to stop the undead race from advancing further.
Sadly, more than half of the current Central Continent was actually under the reign of the undead race.
Meanwhile, the Beast Race only upied less than a fourth of the Central Continent, and the Human Race was also in the same situation.
''Woah... To think there is even the Undead Race in this Immortal World! But unfortunately for them, I have me of Pride so defeating them in the future will surely be a piece of cake for me!'' Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips in excitement under her fox mask.
She even really wanted to try to fight with one of the Undead Race with her me of Pride right now. Especially since her me of Pride already advanced so much and became so much more powerful than before after the Blue Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian has evolved.
"You all should thank your ancestor to be born here in this Lightwind Continent instead of in the Central Continent since the current situation of the Central Continent is so chaotic and the mortality rate is also very high because the people from the Undead Race are practically everywhere there." Teacher Su giggled when she saw all of the students'' tense expression.
"You all don''t need to worry about it yet. The Undead Race is only residing at the Central Continent, at least for now. But there is no guarantee that they will not invade the other continents in the future, so all of you must not ck off and kept striving to get even stronger as soon as possible to face themter!" Teacher Su encouraged them with her soothing tone.
Teacher Su continued her lesson about Lightwind Continent''s geography.
The saddest truth was the Lightwind Continent actually the farthest continent from the Central Continent so the spirit energies here were the thinnest, and all the native inhabitants in this continent have the lowest strengthpared with the native inhabitants from the other continents.
Of course, it did not include this Myriad Foxes Academy where they live right now because many foxes from the other continents came into this Myriad Foxes Academy of Lightwind Continent branch to learn about their advanced knowledge such as the Inscription technology, pill concocting, medical treatment, crafting treasure, smithing armor or weapon, merchant knowledge about how to make a profit by buying or selling something, appraising treasure, etc.
There were countless associations in this Myriad Foxes Academy of Lightwind Continent branch, and they could join any of them to their deepen knowledge. They could even find many experienced teachers there to instruct them in their respective fields.
In fact, more than 70% of the students from the Elite ss actually came from the other continents only to learn this knowledge!
''Hmm... Maybe I should enter the Inscription Association to find some guide books about how to inscribe higher ranking runes or a teacher to teach me about it. The knowledge from the system is veryplete but it''s getting harder for me to inscribe higher ranked runes without any proper guidance of the teacher.'' Tang Li Xue has decided that she would try to join the Inscription Association when she has some free timeter.
"Okay kids, our lesson for today is over! If you have some questions, you can raise your hand now." Teacher Su looked at all the students.
Many students started to ask their questions to Teacher Su in curiosity, especially about Undead Race.
Their question was like this if they could kill the Undead Race with normal me or not? The answer was no. Only the me or thunder with spirituality like Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride, Bi Fang''s Crimson me, or Fake Dragon''s Nirvana me that could kill the Undead Race.
Or like if they could kill the Undead Race if they cut them into tiny pieces or grind them into meat paste? Again, the answer was no. The Undead Race has great regeneration power, so they could still recover back to normal again after some time even if you cut them into tiny pieces or grind them into meat paste, but at least, it still could slow them down.
In short, the me or thunder spirits like Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride were very precious and only these kinds of me could y the Undead Race!
Now Tang Li Xue knew why she needs to hide her me of Pride in this Myriad Foxes Academy ording to the fake dragon.
The low or mid-grade me like what that alchemist from Asura Demon Sect possessed was already very precious.
Tang Li Xue did not know what the current grade of her me of Pride has be, but it must be very appealing in front of another people eyes, and there was no guarantee that they will not secretly forcefully extract it out of Tang Li Xue''s body behind Instructor Mei Lan''s backter.
And it was not like Instructor Mei Lan could always protect her for 24/7.
After the question and answer session for more than ten minutes, Teacher Su bid her farewell to all the students and went out of the ssroom.
"Xue! Are you really going to fight alone? Please, let me take your ce! I promise I will win this battle for you!" Hei Yinghao asked Tang Li Xue with a worried tone. He even begged to take her ce.
"Little Xue! Those three are only clowns! Just let me do it and I promise to teach them a harsh lesson they will never forget in their entire life!" Bing Yi said to Tang Li Xue with a cold tone mixed with a thin murderous intent.
"Hehe... Why are the two of you so eager to take my practice targets? You two don''t need to worry. The current Xue is on a different level from the previous Xue! I will show you all my improvement after I evolve into [Umon] grade beastter!" Tang Li Xue giggled and stated full of confidence.
"But Xue... you are only evolving into [Umon] grade beast a few days ago, I am afraid that you still not proficient in using any of your new divine ability or power. I don''t want to see you hurt." Hei Yinghao stared at Tang Li Xue full of worry, and his eyes kept staring at Tang Li Xue with care as if he was staring at his most precious treasure.
Tang Li Xue''s heart warmed a lot by Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao''s concern, but she wanted to stand on equal ground with them as theirrade, not as someone they always need to protect all the time!
But before Tang Li Xue has time to appease their worry...
"Hahaha... What about our fight? Are you already changed your mind? Getting cold feet already? I don''t mind to cancel our fight if you kowtow and beg to us!" The female red-robed student approached Tang Li Xue''s group along with the other two red-robed students.
"Who said I will cancel it?! Let''s go now!" Tang Li Xue stood up from her seat and walked towards the three red-robed students.
Both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were so worried about Tang Li Xue but they have no choice other than giving in to Tang Li Xue''s unyielding attitude, but they still followed behind Tang Li Xue to watch their battle.
Even Li Jing and her team also followed them to the second floor.
However, before they all entered the sparring room on the second floor, Tang Li Xue made an excuse and went to the toilet for a while.
"Hehehehe... how can I fight in a battle without wearing these two treasures?! I will also use this chance to try these two treasures'' effects and skills!" Tang Li Xueughed mischievously while taking out her [Critical Strikers] and [Shadow Striders].
Tang Li Xue wore the [Critical Strikers] on both of her hands. These pair of ck metal gloves looked even more gorgeous on Tang Li Xue''s hands since the ck metallic color suits her so perfectly in contrast with her snow white smooth skin.
Tang Li Xue also wore the [Shadow Striders] on both of her feet. Just like the [Critical Strikers], the ck metallic color of these pair of metal boots looked even more gorgeous Tang Li Xue''s snow-white smooth feet.
Moreover, the size of [Critical Strikers] and [Shadow Striders] was automatically changed to match Tang Li Xue''s size the moment she wore it. Tang Li Xue felt as if these boots and gloves wereplete customized for her to use.
Actually, she felt that she could move around more freely and faster when wearing these [Critical Strikers] and [Shadow Striders].
"I can even toggle the visibility of these two pieces of equipment on or off?! Does it mean I can make them invisible or visible to other people ording to my will? Woah! This is a really good feature!" Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction.
But this feature really makes sense in Tang Li Xue''s eyes since Tang Li Xue could not imagine if someday she got theplete armor set from her system and put it onter but all the items from the system were invisible in the other people''s eyes, did it mean she will appear n.a.k.e.d in front of other people eyes?!
So this visibility toggle option was the answer to that. She could toggle it on and wear the armor to cover and protect her body in war, but she could also toggle it off and wear it inside her dress to secretly protect her body without anyone knowing it.
"Hehehe... Hopefully, those three Executor students do not only have the big mouths but also possess some abilities so I can test these two pieces of equipment'' true abilities and my divine abilities on them!" Tang Li Xue grinned happily like a naughty child while stroking the [Critical Strikers] she wore on her hands gently.
Tang Li Xue went out from the toilet and entered the sparring room with the three red-robed students along with Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others.
Chapter 172 - 172: Sparring Battle With Executor Class Students!
Chapter 172 - 172: Sparring Battle With Executor ss Students!
"Why are those five of your ssmates here too? You all do not n on going back on your words and gang up on us, aren''t you?" One of the three red-robed students asked with a half-mocking tone.
"Of course not! You all don''t need to worry about that. They are only here to watch our sparring. By the way, sparring without betting anything is not fun. What do you all think?" Tang Li Xue asked them with a cold tone.
"You still want to bet even when you fight against the three of us alone!? Pffft... Bwahahaha... This is the first time I meet with someone so stupid like you! It looks like you really want to give us your credits so badly. Alright, we will dly ept it! You can determine how much credits we will bet!" The female red-robed studentughed at Tang Li Xue as if she heard something so funny.
"Ok, then I will bet 5,000 credits in this fight! Do you dare to ept it?!" Tang Li Xue crossed her arms and said with a leisure tone.
Actually, Tang Li Xue has more credits in her bronze card, but she really doubted these three Executor ss students have that much in their pocket too so she decided to only bet 5,000 credits.
On one side 5,000 credits were quite arge sum for one student, but these three could pool their money together to reach that sum.
On the other side, they would not wary of her too since 5,000 credits were still in their eptable range. If she proposed any higher sum than that, these Executor ss students would certainly be suspicious of her, and it would not be strange for them to rejected Tang Li Xue''s betting challenge.
"5,000 credits?!" The three red-robed students started to frowned and hesitate.
"What? Are you scared? Tsk... And here I always hear that all the Executor ss students are cruel and ruthless but valiant... What a group of cowards?! You all should change your ss name from Executor ss to Chicken ss!" Tang Li Xue did not let them hesitate for too long and kept provoking them with her mocking words.
"How dare you?! Ok, we will ept it! I hope you don''t cry and beg your friends for help when we teach you a lessonter!" The female red-robed student screamed at Tang Li Xue with a shrill voice like a banshee.
Tang Li Xue chuckled and went towards where Bing Yin and Hei Yinghao stood.
"You two have more experience in this than me, how far we can hurt each other in the sparring battle like this?" Tang Li Xue whispered to Bing Yin and Hei Yinghao with a soft voice.
"How far? Umm, everything is allowed as long as no one dies. Demonic beasts like us have strong regeneration thanks to the vitality energy in our beast core, so we can even grow our limbs back even if they are severed, but it will take a quite long time without medical assistance from the medical squad." Bing Yi exined patiently because she knew Tang Li Xue did not know this fact yet, since she evolved into a demonic beast just recently.
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding and thought: ''Woah! So amazing? Now I know why all beasts always feel they are more superior to human...''
Tang Li Xue went back to the center of the arena, and the three red-robed students shouted at her impatiently: "Okay! We are ready! Let''s be quick! We are so busy you know, and our time is so precious! Since we are three and you are alone, we will allow you to choose which arena you prefer."
Tang Li Xue also did not want to waste any more time and shouted: "Sparring Room Number 2833, choosing arena: Colosseum."
Their surrounding scene distorted and changed from the closed arena into open colosseum!
"Let''s begin!" One of the three red-robed students already rushed towards Tang Li Xue and shouted.
"As warm-up let''s try this... ''Binding Rope''!" Tang Li Xue giggled mischievously when the male red-robed student only one meter from her.
Tang Li Xue used her [Energy Maniption] to condense white rope around the male red-robed student body to bind his body.
"Wha...?!" The male red-robed student was too surprised and he did not have any time to dodge, so the white rope coiled around his body and restricted his movement.
The male red-robed student tripped down and fell on his face first.
He rolled on the ground for some time before arrived near Tang Li Xue''s feet.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter when she found out that anything she created from her [Energy Maniption] could form almost in an instant made it applicable even in frontal battle such as now.
Tang Li Xue''s sense felt something as she waved her right hand as if she wanted to catch something reflexively, and her right hand actually really managed to catch something invisible that flying at her in her palm.
SUUUUUU~~!!! BAAAAAANG~!!!
It was actually an invisible sharp arrow!
If Tang Li Xue did not manage to catch it, this invisible sharp arrow would certainly hit her chest!
Although it definitely could not hurt her fatally with her current Toughness stat, but at least, it would be enough to break her skin and made her bleed a bit.
Tang Li Xue stared at where the invisible sharp arrow came from and saw the female red-robed student stood there with a shocked expression.
"Impossible! How can you catch my [Stealth Arrow] with only your bare hand? And how can you see my invisible [Stealth Arrow]?" The female red-robed student shouted in disbelief.
Actually, Tang Li Xue also did not know why. She only felt something dangerous wasing toward her and reflexively moved her right hand just like when you see a mosquito flew in front of your eyes, and you intentionally waved your hand.
However, Tang Li Xue could guess that this feeling was somehow rted to her ''Spirit'' stat.
''I should ask Instructor Lan about thister after she came back.'' Tang Li Xue thought while the female red-robed student shot several [Stealth Arrow] toward her once again.
Tang Li Xue condensed a white shield in front of her with the [Energy Maniption] divine ability.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
All the [Stealth Arrows] collided with Tang Li Xue''s white shield, but it only managed to leave a few scratches on the white shield''s surface.
''I only use a few percentages of my total energies, but this white shield is already so hard. I wonder how strong it will be if I used all of my energies to create it!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in her mind.
The third red-robed student was also a male. He has both the wind type and flight type divine abilities like Yaya. Currently, he flew above Tang Li Xue''s head and nned to ambush her from above.
''Hm... Should I summon Yaya out from my system storage to y around with him for a bit?'' Tang Li Xue smiled in amus.e.m.e.nt.
Before Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao got angry in the ssroom before, Yaya was actually the first one to blow her fuse and almost attacked these three Executor ss Students.
So Tang Li Xue had no other choice other than stealthy store her into her system storage without anyone knowing it before she could make some troubles in the ssroom.
"RRRAAAAGGGHHHH~!!!" The male red-robed student that still bounded on the ground shouted as his body turned into stone, his muscles also bulging out, and made Tang Li Xue''s white rope broke.
The male red-robed student pounced at Tang Li Xue from the ground while swinging hisrge stone fist toward Tang Li Xue''s fragile figure.
The third red-robed student already waited for this timing, and plunge down from the sky with the speed faster than sound.
The decisive attacks from below and above, the other students would certainly fell into panic if they were in this kind of dangerous situation.
The female red-robed student was also kept shooting her [Stealth Arrows] toward Tang Li Xue, but the white shield which hovering on Tang Li Xue''s right side kept blocking her invisible arrows. So Tang Li Xue could not move the white shield to defend herself from the other two attacks.
But Tang Li Xue only chuckled softly from behind her fox mask.
She activated her [Ethereal Form] at thest moment when both of their attacks almost touched her slender body.
BOOOOOOOOOOMM~~!!!
The two male red-robed students'' attacks collided violently against each other, and both of them flew several meters away.
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment. She did not even do anything to them yet, but the two of them were already injured.
Especially the third red-robed student with wind type divine ability. His head collided so hard with the stone guy''s powerful body blow, and many bones in his body broke.
This poor third red-robed student would certainly not be able to continue sparring with Tang Li Xue under that critical condition.
''Aiya... I don''t even test any of my equipment or divine abilities but this guy is already down. I should tone it down a bit this time, so thest two canst longer for me to test several of my divine abilities.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head while thinking.
Tang Li Xue did not cancel her [Ethereal Form], but she activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability instead.
Her perfect copy appeared right in front of her invisible self.
Her perfect copy also wore a white dress and a white fox mask. It even wore the [Critical Strikers] on his hands and the [Shadow Striders] on her feet.
''Oh? It''s also wearing my equipment? Let''s give it a try then!'' Tang Li Xue giggled softly while giving the order to her copy to charge toward the female red-robed student with her mind.
Tang Li Xue''s copy figure turned blur as she used her [Blink] skill to dash towards the female red-robed student.
The female red-robed student became anxious and shot her [Stealth Arrows] continuously toward Tang Li Xue''s copy, only to be blocked by the white shield that hovering in front of Tang Li Xue''s copy.
Tang Li Xue''s copy waved her palm, and several white daggers condensed from her [Energy Maniption].
All of the white daggers flew toward the female red-robed student with an unbelievable speed that almost could not be seen with n.a.k.e.d eyes.
"AAAAAAHHHHH!!!" The female red-robed student screamed with a shrill voice when several white daggers pierced deeply into both of her wrists, arms, and shoulders.
Tang Li Xue''s copy stopped right in front of the female red-robed student.
Their face was only a few inches away from each other made the female red-robed student''s scalp went numb, and she quickly jumped back to create some distance for herself from Tang Li Xue''s copy but unfortunately, it was already toote.
Tang Li Xue''s copy slender hand caught the female red-robed student''s fragile neck made the female red-robed student felt suffocating.
She could move both of her arms anymore, so she could only il her feet around wildly.
"Release her, you b*tch!" The male red-robed student with a burly stone body charged toward Tang Li Xue once again.
Tang Li Xue''s copy did not even n to dodge or hide from the male red-robed student''s heavy attack.
The male red-robed student released all of the strength in his body and swung his powerful heavy fist to Tang Li Xue''s copy.
Actually, under this circ.u.mstance, Tang Li Xue''s copy could use the female red-robed student as a shield, so the male red-robed student would definitely stop his powerful heavy fist before it hit her.
But she did not do that!
Because Tang Li Xue nned to test if her copy could also use the equipment skill!
So instead of using the female red-robed student as a shield or dodging with her [Ethereal Form], she attacked back with her [Critical Strikers]''s weapon skill!
[Final Strike]!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~~!!!
Chapter 173 - 173: OP Cheat Divine Ability!
Chapter 173 - 173: OP Cheat Divine Ability!
"AARRRRRGGGHHH!!!" The male red-robed student screamed in pain as countless cracks spreading on his burly stone hand, and his blood spurted out from within it like a fountain.
It was clear that his entire right arm was on the verge of breaking apart into pieces because of Tang Li Xue''s heavy attack.
The hard collision threw his body backward tens of meters away until he crashed onto a solid pir.
The solid pir shattered into pieces, and its debris buried the male red-robed student.
Tang Li Xue''s body only shook a bit because of the violent collision between her left fist and the male red-robed student''s stone fist.
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise. She never thought this [Final Strike] was so powerful.
Actually, Tang Li Xue only swung her fist casually. She did not even use 50% of her true strength in that attack. But under the effect of her [Fatal Strike], her attack became so powerful and lethal.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head and smiled in satisfaction with this [Fatal Strike]''s effect. Although, the cooldown of one hour was a bit too long, but its powerful effect was more than enough to make up for that.
Tang Li Xue started to imagine if she couldbine this [Fatal Strike]''s explosive strike effect with the defense pration effect of the [7th Layer of Heaven Splitting Wave], just how strong it would be!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue already reced the [7th Layer of Heaven Splitting Wave] in her [Mirror of the Moon] divine ability.
''Maybe I should just steal the [Heaven Splitting Wave]''s martial art manual from Asura Demon Sect in the future and learn it rather than copying it from that fat baldy again.'' Tang Li Xue put her finger on her chin and pondering about it.
From Tang Li Xue''s previous attempt, she found one good news and one bad news.
The good news was her copy from [Twin Moons] divine ability can also use the equipment skill like [Fatal Strike].
The bad news was her original equipment skill shared the same cooldown with her copy.
For example, her [Fatal Strike] also entered a one-hour cooldown now after her copy used it on the male red-robed student previously.
"Uhhh... Little Xue, maybe you should loosen your grip first. It seems that the girl cannot hold on any longer. Don''t get me wrong, I don''t care about her but I am afraid you will be in big trouble if you identally killed her." Bing Yi warned Tang Li Xue with a weird tone.
Tang Li Xue woke up from her daze from Bing Yi''s warning. She looked at the unconscious female red-robed student in her copy''s grasp through her copy''s eyes.
The eyes of the poor unconscious female red-robed student already rolled back, and white foam poured out from her mouth.
Her neck also has turned purple because Tang Li Xue gripped it too tightly until the bones in her neck were already cracked.
If this female red-robed student was a human, she would probably already stopped breathing a few minutes ago.
Tang Li Xue quickly ordered her copy to release her grip in her mind, and the female red-robed student''s body dropped onto the ground.
Tang Li Xue looked around the colosseum and found out all of her foes already fell unconscious on the ground.
Tang Li Xue could only sigh in disappointment since she did not even have enough time to experimenting with her [Shadow Striders]''s equipment skill before all of her opponents has been defeated.
She canceled her [Twin Moons] divine ability, and her copy vanished into thin air.
After a few seconds, Tang Li Xue also canceled her [Ethereal Form].
These two divine abilities, [Twin Moons] and [Ethereal Form] were really a goodbination.
She could make her copy fought with her enemies while she ambushed them one by one from their blind spot.
There were many new strategies she could apply with her new divine abilities, but Tang Li Xue also realized that she could not be too hasty. She nned to test it one by one in the sparring match like this carefullyter.
Tang Li Xue walked towards Hei Yinghao, Bing Yi, Li Jing, and the others.
They all congratted her excitingly and kept praising her about how strong her new divine ability, but Tang Li Xue still absentmindedly checked her quest log in her system window.
''The quest is still notpleted yet?! Why?'' Tang Li Xue frowned as she checked her current quest carefully once again.
[Quest: (Tyrannical) Follow your instructor''s teaching and teach the students from the Executor ss a lesson they will never forget in their entire life!]
[Difficulty: Hard]
[Reward: Level +3(+1), Stat Point+45(+11), Skill Point+9(+2), 150(+38) Deity Coins]
''Tsk, this exnation is really vague! Maybe winning one match is still not enough? Oh well, I will only need to keep challenging the Executor ss students from now on. Eh... what is this? New quest? How could I have one more additional quest now?!'' Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise.
[Chain Side-Quest (I): The Quest for Power]
[Quest: Consume 3 Human''s High-Rank Golden Cores/ High-level [Rare] grade beast cores (0/3)]
[Reward: Regalia of Eclipse 1st Power!]
Tang Li Xue did not read this new quest notification at that time since she was still busily absorbing the pure energy from white crystal cocoon toplete her evolution.
''Regalia of Eclipse?! Woah!!! A new type of power? I should find more information about this Regalia... or maybe I can ask Instructor Lan after shees backter.'' Tang Li Xue put her finger on her chin and thinking.
''Three Human''s High-Rank Golden Cores or High-level [Rare] grade beast cores?! Aihhh... Unfortunately, I already give the High-level [Rare] grade beast core I stole... cough... cough... I mean pick up that night to the glutton egg!'' Tang Li Xuemented inside her heart.
"Little Xue? Are you hurt?" Bing Yi asked in a worried tone when she saw Tang Li Xue stood there absentmindedly. She held Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and observed Tang Li Xue''s body carefully.
Tang Li Xue woke up from her daze and asked Bing Yi: "By the way, how can I get my credits from them if all of them still conscious like that?"
Bing Yi: "......."
Hei Yinghao: "......."
Li Jing and the others: "......."
They thought Tang Li Xue''s internal organs were injured from thatst violent sh, so she could not move, but who knows that Tang Li Xue was actually thinking about how to get her winning bet from her unconscious foes.
A few minutes after that, a medical squad entered their room and brought the three Executor ss students to the medical ward.
Tang Li Xue and the others asked about their bet to the second-floor supervisor.
The supervisor checked about their betting testimony from the surveince formation in their sparring room.
''Tsk... There is even the surveince formation in every sparring room?! Now I know why they did not afraid if something bad like identally killing someone will happen in that closed sparring room!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in amazement when she saw the projection of herself fought with three Executor-ss students appeared in front of them.
After confirming it, the second-floor supervisor directly gave 5,000 credits to Tang Li Xue.
It seems the second-floor supervisor will extract the 5,000 credits from the three Executor-ss studentster after they regained their consciousness.
Tang Li Xue went back to the residential building with others, and all of them entered the luxurious restaurant on the first floor to eat their lunch.
Tang Li Xue summoned Yaya out, and just like what Tang Li Xue expected, Yaya immediately threw throwing a big tantrum to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue could onlyugh bitterly. Although, Yaya already reached [Rare] grade, but she was actually only a month old baby and unlike Tang Li Xue, Yaya did not have any memories from her previous life.
Although, Yaya was a quite sensible kid and always care for Tang Li Xue, but her mind was only at seven to eight years old right now.
Tang Li Xue coaxed Yaya for a few minutes and ordered many delicious delicacies for Yaya.
After looking at all the delicious foods on the table, all of Yaya''s unhappiness and anger were blown away as she greedily devoured the delicious food with incredible speed.
Tang Li Xue also treated Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others for lunch with 5,000 credits she got from her victory.
Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others did not bother to reject Tang Li Xue''s treat at all since all of them did not have any more credits in their bronze card because they lost in a sparring match against Elite ss yesterday.
In the end, Tang Li Xue only spent less than 1,500 credits in total for treating Yaya and the other for lunch.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya bid farewell to Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others and went back to her room to continue her daily routine of inscribing some runes into the nk talismans.
While Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others went into mission hall to take some missions and gain some credits to fill their empty pocket.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue sat on the chair in her study room.
She took out her golden [Inscription Pen] and wanted to inscribe the nk talisman in front of her but suddenly, she was struck with a terrifying inspiration.
''What if... just what if I used my perfect copy from my [Twin Moons] divine ability to inscribe the talisman while I am training the [Art of Concealment] or continue my cultivation with spirit stone?! Isn''t that means I can do two things at once?! Well, with this [Twin Moons] divine ability, I basically have two bodies, two minds, and two brains but one consciousness so it surely possible, right?'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering even brighter, and she licked her pinkish lips.
''Let''s try it!'' Tang Li Xue activated her [Twin Moons] and summoned out her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue stood out from the chair and ordered her perfect copy to sit there then inscribe the talisman ording to preference.
Ding!
[Host sessfully inscribed the Talisman of Regeneration +1!]
[Inscriptionist''s proficiency has increased!]
''Sess? It really a sess?! Hehehe... Muahahaha... I can''t believe I got one more cheat-like divine ability!'' Tang Li Xueughed maniacally and went out of the study room.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy kept staying inside the study room and inscribing more talismans diligently while the original Tang Li Xue started to training the [Art of Concealment].
Previously, Tang Li Xue could only inscribe the talisman twelve times, but now, she could do more than forty times!
Tang Li Xue was not sure if this was because she already evolved into [Umon] grade or because she increased her Spirit stat.
However, that was not the most surprising fact...
The most surprising fact was that the original Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy did not share their fatigues!
For example, right now, Tang Li Xue''s copy already reached her limit after inscribing several talismans in forty-two tries.
Her copy exhaustion symptom was the same as the previous Tang Li Xue: head-splitting headache, dizziness, and nausea. But the original Tang Li Xue did not feel anything! She was still as healthy as before!
''Doesn''t it mean I can inscribe talisman for eighty-four times? Woah! NO! Wait a minute... if I add more free stats into Spirit stat maybe I can inscribe more and by that time, doesn''t it mean my copy can also inscribe more?! Tsk, tsk, tsk... what an OP cheats divine ability!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue several times in amazement.
Besides challenging more Executor ss students tomorrow, Tang Li Xue had another two more tasks now.
First, collect more credits to buy three High-level [Rare] grade beast cores! After she consumed all of three it, she could get one more OP ability, Regalia of Eclipse!
Second, she needs to buy some precious items with rich energies to feed the glutton egg!
She already tried to drip her blood onto the glutton egg today, but this bast*rd actually dared to refuse it!
Yes, it actually refused her blood!
Since Tang Li Xue already built a bit connection with the glutton egg after dripped her blood for more than one week, she couldmunicate a bit with this glutton egg and understand why it refused her blood.
This glutton egg was actually hungry, and it needs to eat something before it could build more connection with Tang Li Xue!
But Tang Li Xue already feed both her mid-grade spirit stone and High-level [Rare] grade beast core she got that night to this glutton egg, so she has nothing more to feed it now.
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead and thought: ''So now, I need to buy more than three of the High-level [Rare] grade beast cores for me to use and to feed this glutton egg! While the price of one High-level [Rare] grade beast core is more than 50,000 credits each... sigh... Fortunately, I have this OP cheat divine ability, [Twin Moons] at the right time, if not, I can only cry in poverty.''
''I should really thank Greater Lucky Sticker Buff for giving me this OP cheat divine ability... I still have 1 more [Greater Lucky Sticker] in my system inventory now. I guess I will save it again this time so I can use it when I evolve into [Rare] grade demonic beastter.''?Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
Chapter 174 - 174: Proclamation of War!
Chapter 174 - 174: ?Promation of War!
When the skies turned dark, Tang Li Xue tried to tell her copy to go to the auction house and sell all of the talismans she made before.
However, Tang Li Xue''s copy vanished on its own after she walked for more than a hundred meters away from the original Tang Li Xue.
''So my copy can only separate for about one hundred and sixty meters away from me? Wait a minute... My current Spirit stat''s value is at 163. Don''t tell me the distance is rted to my spirit stats too?! Tsk, tsk, tsk... just how many functions this spirit stat truly have?!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue when she realized several marvelous effects of the Spirit stat.
Since her copy from [Twin Moons] divine ability could not go too far away from the original Tang Li Xue, she has no other choice other than going to the auction house by herself.
Tang Li Xue took Yaya with her and went to the auction house to sell all of the talismans.
Tang Li Xue''s copy sessfully inscribed fourteen [Talisman of Regeneration +1] today.
She did not know why but her copy''s sess rate was astounding high to create fourteen [Talisman of Regeneration +1] in forty-two tries while she could only sessfully create one [Talisman of Regeneration +1] in eight tries before if she was lucky.
Many of Tang Li Xue''s abilities and skills were enhanced so greatly after she evolved into [Umon] grade demonic beast, so she did not know the exact reason why her sess rate in creating talismans increased so highly.
But she still guessed it also rted to her Spirit stat because when her Spirit stat increased, she could sense everything more clearly because of it. As if she could see through thew and mystery of the world. Although it was just a tiny weeny bit part of it, like peeking the world through the tiny keyhole, but the effect was tremendous.
After arrived at the auction house, Tang Li Xue managed to sell each of her [Talisman of Regeneration +1] for 1,600 - 1,800 credits, so she sold all fourteen [Talisman of Regeneration +1] for 23,900 credits in total.
This was the reason why Tang Li Xue decided to make [Talisman of Regeneration +1] to sell. The healing type talisman like the [Talisman of Regeneration +1] could be sold at a higher price than buff type or skill type talisman.
In the end, Tang Li Xue got 19,120 credits after the auction house cut 20% as their fee.
After added this with the credit in her previous saving, the credit she got from Instructor Mei Lan for her evolution, and the credit she got from winning the bet with the three Executor ss students, Tang Li Xue only has a bit more than 35,000 credits in her bronze card currently.
''Sigh... I need twice this amount to buy one High-level [Rare] grade beast core.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head in disappointment and went back to her room with Yaya.
After cultivate until midnight like usual, Tang Li Xue fell asleep on the bed with Yaya.
.....
...
.
Yaya woke up Tang Li Xue early, and she went to the education building with Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the other.
ording to Li Jing and the others, their lesson today in the ss would be about evolution to Spirit Beast.
The lesson''s topic was piquing Tang Li Xue''s interest. Although she still needs to evolve twice to reach the spirit beast rank, but it did not change the fact that she would reach that level sooner orter, and it would not hurt to learn about it earlier.
However, the moment Tang Li Xue and the others stepped into their mixed ssroom for today, every red-robed student in the ssroom stared at them with red eyes full of dissatisfaction and anger.
Tang Li Xue frowned a bit and decided to ignore all of them. She, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the other were walking to the several empty seats in the middle of the ssroom, but she was once again blocked by several red-robed students.
''Sigh... Not again! Is this the ritual of all Executor ss students or something? Why does this always happen every time I get into the mixed ssroom?!'' Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes behind her fox mask in annoyance.
"You ugly b*tch! Did you know that you almost killed our three ssmates yesterday?! You even dare to rob their credits away! They are still lying on the medical ward until now! Give all of their credits back right now so they can pay their medical treatment or we will make you lying there even longer than them!" Another female red-robed student shouted at Tang Li Xue full of rage.
Yaya that currently sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder has frowned deeper as murderous intent emitting out from her tiny body.
But Tang Li Xue already warned Yaya yesterday that it was forbidden for anyone to fight in the education building other than in the sparring room on the second floor or they would be punished heavily.
So Yaya could only suppress her thick killing intent and act as if she did not hear anything like Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue could clearly felt what Yaya thought via their mind connection.
Tang Li Xue lowered her head and felt very guilty because she felt that she did not educate Yaya properly about how precious all life was.
Tang Li Xue decided she should try to educate Yaya bit by bit about this from now on, so Yaya would not kill everyone she did not like in the future like a mad murder.
The red-robed female student became even more daring when she saw Tang Li Xue lowered her head as if she felt really guilty to the red-robed female student.
"That''s right! As long as you give all of your credits to me aspensation, I will bring you to them to apologize! If you kowtow sincerely to all of us from the Executor ss students, we will not make it hard for you! But if you refuse to do it, we will make sure to make you regret being born into this world!" The red-robed female student said with a threatening tone.
But when the red-robed female student looked at Tang Li Xue''s cold piercing gaze, she subconsciously took a few steps backward in dread.
"Are you done?" Tang Li Xue asked the red-robed female student with a freezing tone while kept staring at her with her cold piercing gaze.
Then Tang Li Xue shifted her cold piercing gaze to the other red-robed students from the Executor ss and shouted loudly: "Are you all done?"
"I am starting to get bored with your pathetic boring habit of challenging me every time I get into the ssroom, so I will challenge all of you instead! I, Tang Li Xue from Inspector ss challenge the entire Executor ss students!" Tang Li Xue shouted once again before the Executor ss student could say anything.
Tang Li Xue''s voice was still as sweet as honey like a melodious beautiful song, but her tone was unusually cold and unfeeling.
"But I will not challenge any beggar, so we will bet 5,000 credits every time we fight. If you win, I will even pay three times from that amount to you! How about that? Chickens from Executor ss, if you dare to ept my challenge, then I will wait for all of you every day after the lesson in the ss is over!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a taunting tone.
All the students in the ssroom including Hei Yinghao, Bing Yi, Li Jing, and the other stunned silly by Tang Li Xue''s challenge.
No, this was no longer a challenge but a promation of war with the entire Executor ss Students!
"F*ck you ugly bit*ch! How dare you challenge us like that?! Are you tired of living?!"
"Ugly bit*ch, I want to see if you can still pping your tongue after I pull it out from your mouthter!"
"I will make sure to cut all your limbs until you beg me for mercy today, you ugly bit*ch!"
.....
After saying everything she wanted, Tang Li Xue sat on the empty seat and ignored all the angry screams and yells from all the Executor ss students.
No one knew that Tang Li Xue was actually giggling mischievously behind her fox mask now and thought: ''With this, I can earn more credits faster to buy High-level [Rare] grade beast core while experimenting with my new equipment skills and new divine abilities! I am really so smart! Hehehehe...''
Although it was quite risky since she could attract attention from that [Demonic Blood Fox]''s big brother, but she also really wanted to test her limit by facing strong enemies like him so badly.
Moreover, it was forbidden to kill inside the Myriad Foxes Academy, and it was especially so inside this education building!
Rather than be overconfident and overestimating her limit, then got killed outside the Myriad Foxes Academyter, Tang Li Xue prefer if she got defeated and humiliated inside this Myriad Foxes Academy!
Not long after Tang Li Xue said her promation of war, the mixed ss instructor for today walked into the ssroom.
Strangely, today''s mixed ss instructor was actually a male who wore a fox mask on his face just like Tang Li Xue.
"Good morning to you all. I am your mixed ss instructor for today, Li Wei. You all can call me Teacher Li. Today I will teach you about the process of evolution to be Spirit Beast. This lesson is very important and can affect your future so please pay attention carefully." Teacher Li said with his masculine voice, but his tone was really gentle like Instructor Mei Lan.
Among the other students, only Tang Li Xue and the others from Instructor Mei Lan''s Inspector ss knew the true horror behind that gentle tone, so they did not dare to act carelessly or look down upon this Teacher Li.
Teacher Li has beautiful white hair, white pair of fox ear on the top of his head, and a white furry tail behind him like Bing Yi.
Tang Li Xue''s smooth fur and silky hair were silvery-white, and it was glittering with gorgeous silver light. It was different from Teacher Li and Bing Yi since Tang Li Xue looked more magnificent and noble.
For an unknown reason, Tang Li Xue''s gaze met with Teacher Li, and she somewhat knew that this Teacher Li was actually smiled toward her from behind his fox mask, maybe because he realized that Tang Li Xue was also wearing the fox mask like him.
After a few moments of looking at Tang Li Xue, Teacher Li switched his attention back towards all the students in the ss.
But Hei Yinghao that sat beside Tang Li Xue also felt this Teacher Li was staring at Tang Li Xue for a few moments and mumbled in dissatisfaction: "What a pervert! You already so old but still dare to flirt with the female student using your eyes! Tsk!"
Tang Li Xue could hear Hei Yinghao''s displeased words with her sharp ears, but before she could ask what he was talking about, Teacher Li''s lesson already began so she decided to forget it and put her focus back on Teacher Li''s lesson.
"Everyone here should already know you all will be given two choices after you reach Spirit Beast Rank to stay in your beast form or gain human form. But did you all know the meaning behind these two choices?" Teacher Li asked all the students to pique their interest.
Like what Teacher Li wished, all the students in the ss became even more curious about his lesson, and they paid more attention now.
"I know many of you think that all of you already have iplete divine ability to transform into human form, so you all think that you no longer need to choose to ''gain human form''. But I will let you all know that choosing to ''stay in your beast form'' would be the most stupid choice you will ever make in your entire life!" Teacher Li''s words were still gentle, but it was very unpleasant to everyone''s ear.
Chapter 175 - 175: Spirit Beast Form!
Chapter 175 - 175: Spirit Beast Form!
"Teacher Li, why should we choose to be a vile human race?! We are proud to be a part of the fox race! Why should we take the inferior human form when we reach Spirit Beast?! This is not making any sense!" One of the male ck-robed students from the Elite ss shouted loudly in disagreement.
The education department nevercked the hot-blooded youth, especially the young students from the Elite ss that have very prideful and rebellious.
Most of the students from the Elite ss were no afraid of Instructor or Teacher from the education department.
If Executor ss students and the Inspector ss students were the eternal rivals, then the eternal rival of all the Elite ss students was all the Instructors or Teachers in the education department since the students from the Elite ss did not like being ordered around by anyone, including any Instructors or Teachers.
After the ck-robed student shouted his disagreement proudly, the other students in the ss started to be noisy and protested too.
"That''s right! We are the proud fox race! Why do we need to take the ugly human form in the end? I also disagree with what you said, Teacher Li!"
"I already very suspicious about why this education department always emphasizes us to take human form in this building, I smell a conspiracy here! Maybe all the education department''s higher-ups are actually human in disguise?"
"I have enough of this human sh*t! I am a fox and I am proud of that! Why do I need to take the sh*tty furless ugly human form?!"
"Teacher Li, are you a human''s admirer or a human''s ve?! Why do you suggest us to choose to abandon our beast form only to take the inferior human form?! Oh... Maybe you are afraid that we will surpass you someday so you are trying to mislead us, right?!"
The students in the ss became even rowdier in dissatisfaction, and they were on the verge of making a riot.
"Calm down everyone! I will exin everything shortly, so you will definitely understand why." Teacher Li said with a calm tone while waved his right hand.
The faint white threads came out from his right hand and spread through the entire ssroom. All the students in the ss did not know what these faint white threads for, so they raised their guard to the maximum and tried to block it with their hands.
Unfortunately, the faint white thread passed through their hands like Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] and entered their chest. Each of the faint white thread entered into one student''s chest.
Even Tang Li Xue also could not block this faint white thread and could only watch as the faint white thread entered her chest like everyone else.
The moment the faint white thread entered her chest, she felt extremelyfortable, and her mind became crystal clear. All the agitation, anger, and dissatisfaction in everyone''s heart werepletely erased, reced by serenity and peacefulness.
''What the hell! This white string can calm down everyone just like that?! Doesn''t it mean this teacher could control everyone''s feelings with his divine ability like the tip of his finger? Ck, Ck, Ck... There is really no normal instructor in this education building! Each one of them is more monstrous than thest!'' Tang Li Xue stared at Teacher Li in astonishment.
"There is a usible reason why I said so. Today I will slowly exin the perks of both choices so you all can think about it carefully and make the most correct choice for yourself after you reach that point." Teacher Li appeased all the students with his words.
"The first choice is to stay in your beast form. There is nothing special in this choice since you will advance to the next rank as usual after you gain the spirit baptism, you will get a new divine ability, and get stronger." Teacher Lizily exined, but Tang Li Xue could detect the hint of disdain in his words.
"But I must warn you all, once you choose this choice, the highest rank you will reach is only the Beast God rank. Of course, this choice is not necessarily bad since the risk is very much lower than the second choice. Most of the foxes in Myriad Foxes Academy choose this option anyway." Teacher Li briefly warned.
Actually, Teacher Li did not even dare to mention the chance of evolving into Beast God rank when they choose this first option was so infinitesimal next to impossible since it would provoke the ire from the other instructor that choose this first option if they heard it from their studentster.
Of course, the story would be different if they could get a hold on the most precious treasure like Tang Li Xue''s [Awakening Stone]!
"Teacher Li, Is there really rank higher than the Beast God rank?! I heard it is just a myth!" One of the blue-robed students raised her hand and asked.
"The rank higher than the Beast God rank is truly exist! But I will not discuss it with you all since it is outside the topic of our current lesson for today." Teacher Li answered the student''s question.
''Oh? Beast God? So that''s what they called the [Ancient] grade beast in Immortal World! And the Beast Races in Immortal World even already realize that there are several ranks above [Ancient] grade... I mean above Beast God rank.''
''I wonder, is there any beast in Immortal managed to evolve into that rank? ording to the [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide], there are another six grade above the [Ancient] grade in Divine World.''
Tang Li Xue tapped her chin with her slender finger while thinking deeply.
"The second choice is to gain the human form. This option is really interesting! I am also the same as all of you at first and think why we the proud beast race must change into a human, but this way of thinking is wrong! Very wrong!" Teacher Li''s tone turned solemn and even made all the students in the ssroom became tenser.
"Now I will exin the process of how the one chooses this second option evolves into spirit beast and you will understand the reason why I said so."?Teacher Li exined carefully step by step and all the students in the ssroom listened to him carefully this time.
Every student here including Tang Li Xue already knew that they will momentarily lose all of their skills, divine abilities, and strength as the beast if they chose the second option.
They will be no different than any normal human, they will have a Dantian, and they could cultivate like the other humans, but their potential would be far a lot higher than even the most monstrous human.
But after they reach a certain stage of cultivation, their dormant power as the beast will bepletely awakened, not only they will get their skills, divine abilities, and strength back as a beast, they will also sessfully advanced to Spirit Beast rank.
However, was that really all they got after taking such a high risk of being hunted by humans and beasts in their weakest state when all of their power got sealed?
The answer was NO!
They will get far more than just that!
All the students in the ss, including Tang Li Xue, held their breaths eagerly waiting for Teacher Li''s next exnation.
Teacher Li looked at all the students'' eager expression and nodded in satisfaction.
"You all should already know that you will have a martial soul once you choose to gain your human form, right?" Teacher Li asked all the students, and they all nodded their heads like a group of woodpeckers.
"You all should already know too that all the elemental spirits are nature''s darling, and they are the strongest race in Immortal World, right?" Teacher Li asked once again, and all the students nodded their heads simultaneously again.
It was not exaggerating at all to say that all elemental spirits were the strongest race in Immortal World.
Even Mo Chonglin with his high cultivation was facing a lot of trouble to capture the me of Pride before, and it was still in the weakest embryo form!
In fact, the current Tang Li Xue''s strength as [Umon] grade demonic beast was still too low and could not exhibit the current Fetal form of me of Pride''s true power.
She even dragged down the power level of the deep Blue Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian to her current level and made it take a long sleep to recharge its power after it evolves.
Usually, after assimting, the host would act as the fuel tank for the spirit-type elemental spirit like Blue Phoenix of Pride, while the spirit-type elemental spirit would act as the weapon to obliterate all the enemies.
However, the current Tang Li Xue could not provide enough fuel for Blue Phoenix of Pride, so it was forced to sleep for a long time to slowly recharge its power.
But Tang Li Xue could not be med about this since the true reason for the Blue Phoenix of Pride could evolve so fast was because it was slowly absorbing the dark gold me from the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] to speed up the process of it to reach maturity.
The Blue Phoenix of Pride even deceived Tang Li Xue beforehand so she would receive the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] to be nted in her Dantian!
A mature elemental spirit like Yaya''s mother could probably ughter any human, beast, or undead of higher rank than her easily!
In short, the elemental spirit races were nature''s darling, so it did not face any restriction like other races and could defeat the creatures from the human race, beast race, or undead race in the same rank as it easily.
Fortunately, the elemental spirits were very rare. The spirit-type elemental spirits could only be breed by nature itself, and the elf-type elemental spirits'' fertility was also very low. If not for these two factors, this Immortal World might have been already conquered by the elemental spirit races since long ago.
''Tsk... And that fake dragon said something like Yaya''s mother is only as strong as mid-rank spirit beast?! What a liar!'' Tang Li Xue snorted in disdain when she remembered the fake dragon''s words before.
But Teacher Li''s next wordspletely shattered theirmon sense!
"What if I said you could get the same blessing as the elemental spirit from nature if you sacrificed your martial soul to nature when you evolved into spirit beast in the future?" Teacher Li chuckled as he said something that shocked all the students in the ss.
All the students including Tang Li Xue were stunned silly by Teacher Li''s words.
"We called it, Spirit Beast Form! Only the beasts that choose the second choice when they evolve into Spirit beast will get this form. Actually, the name of the Spirit Beast rank also came from this form. The beasts who choose the first choice should not have any right to be called Spirit Beast, because they did not even have this Spirit Beast Form!" Teacher Liughed as if he was mocking the one who already chose the first option.
"Of course, this Spirit Beast Form still has some limitations such as it consumes tons of stamina while we are in this form." Teacher Li exined the weakness of this Spirit Beast Form too.
"We still could not bepared with the elemental spirit race that could fight in their most powerful state all the time since we can only maintain this Spirit Beast Form in a short time, but while we are in this form, we will be strong enough to fight toe to toe with the a.d.u.l.t elemental spirit!" Teacher Li looked at all the shocked students in the ss and nodded in satisfaction with their stupefied expression.
''What? Wait a minute... Did you just say something like sacrificing my martial soul?! Dammit! So we must sacrifice our martial soul if we choose to gain the human formter?! Oh no! My cool and magnificent Golden-Winged Serpent will need to be sacrificed in the future?!'' Tang Li Xue''s mind became messy, and she panicked a bit after she digested all Teacher Li''s exnation.
"Okay students, our lesson has ended for today! If you are still not clear about what we are talking about, you all can visit the library and read more about itter." Teacher Li nodded to all the students and left the ssroom in hurry.
''Hei, Hei, Hei! What kind of teacher is he? Where the hell is the questions and answers session after the lesson? There are so many things I want to ask! I don''t want to lose my [Golden-Winged Serpent]ter! Is there anything I can sacrifice to the nature other than my martial soul to get that Spirit Beast Formter?! Like delicious delicacies, gold, or spirit stones?'' Tang Li Xue woke up from her daze and wanted to ask Teacher Li but he already vanished from the ssroom.
Tang Li Xue stood up from her seat, and she wanted to chase after the Teacher Li to ask him many things.
Unfortunately, several red-robed students already blocked her way, so she could not get out of the ssroom to chase Teacher Li anymore.
Tang Li Xue already in a very bad mood after she knew that she must sacrifice her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent]ter, but now, she became even more irritable after these red-robed students blocked her from chasing after Teacher Li.
"Hei ugly b*tch, you want to run away now! Dream on! But if you give us all your credits and kowtow to us before licking our shoes one by one, we will only beat you to half death today! How about it?" The female red-robed student sneered at Tang Li Xue.
"Hahaha... Kowtow and licking our shoes is still too lenient for that ugly b*tch. At least make her run around this education building while showing her disgusting face under that mask! I wonder if anyone will puke out after they see her disgusting ugly face?!"?The male red-robed student sneered and mocked Tang Li Xue.
"Sigh... I hope you all have more than 5,000 credits in your cards." Tang Li Xue sighed, but her topaz blue eyes became much colder than before.
"Why?" The male red-robed student raised his eyebrow and asked while kept sneering.
"So you all will have enough credits to pay for the medical treatment after I break all your bones into tiny piecester." Tang Li Xue said in a piercing cold tone.
Chapter 176 - 176: Copy! Copy! Copy!
Chapter 176 - 176: Copy! Copy! Copy!
"What did you say?! You still think you can win against us?! The team you win yesterday is only a bunch of weakly freshmen students! We are on a different level from them!" The male red-robed student stopped sneering and shouted at Tang Li Xue full of anger.
Different from the education institute in Tang Li Xue''s precious world, all the students in the education department of Myriad Foxes Academy were not separated by years like the first year, the second year, the third year, and so on.
The reason for that was because the education department of Myriad Foxes Academy did not educate the schrs, but the powerful lineup capable ofpleting different tasks in their respective fields whether in inspection or assassination.
Besides that, all the beasts have a really long lifespan, so measuring their maturity by years like the human race waspletely inurate, since it was not strange to find students still staying in this education department even after thirty or fifty years.
So the education department of Myriad Foxes Academy separated their rank into five ording to their contribution: Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, Senior, and Undergraduate.
How to gain more contribution? Of course, toplete more exams, trials, missions, etc. All the students could not check or see their own contribution points, but it was automatically recorded in the education department''s system.
Tang Li Xue observed several red-robed students in front of her and noticed their confidence glowing from their faces.
''These people... err... these foxes should be at least at Sophomore or Junior rank! That''s why they are so confident winning against me.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Why Tang Li Xue knew about this?
Because only the Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior rank students that were still loitering around the education building.
All of the Senior and Undergraduate rank students were usually busilypleting some important missions outside the Myriad Foxes Academy to gain huge rewards from the Education Departmentter.
''But this is good too. It would be too boring to experiment with my new divine abilities and equipment on the weak students like yesterday. I will even get 5,000 credits in doing so while trying to finish my quest! This is truly what we called ''killing three birds with one stone''!'' Tang Li Xue sneered at them while thinking so.
Several red-robed students surrounded Tang Li Xue as if they were afraid that Tang Li Xue will run away.
However, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others already stood beside Tang Li Xue. They were ready to confronting all of these savage red-robed students if they dare to gang up on Tang Li Xue.
Fortunately, nothing happened between Tang Li Xue''s group and the Executor ss students'' group in the end. They were only kept cursing and trash talk against each other harshly while heading toward the second floor together.
Executor ss students even asked for a referee for their sparring match when they booked one of the sparring room from the second-floor supervisor.
"Referee? So we can ask for a referee to oversee our match?" Tang Li Xue asked Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi.
"Not a real referee. We can ask the supervisor to activate the formation in the sparring room to summon an Instructor''s replica as a referee. But it will oversee fair match like single battle 1 on 1 or team battle 3 on 3. In the case of 1 on 3 like yesterday, we cannot use a referee." Hei Yinghao patiently exined to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding and asked again: "So we don''t need to hold back our strength so much in the sparring battleter, right? I mean there is already a referee that will protect their life at thest moment and stop the match."
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi looked at Tang Li Xue dumbfoundedly after they heard her question but both of them subconsciously nodded their heads at the same time.
Tang Li Xue sneered coldly under her fox mask but no one could see it.
Since the Executor ss students already asked for a referee, Tang Li Xue could no longer face the entire team alone like yesterday.
There were nine Executor ss students with them now, so Tang Li Xue''s team will need to face three Executor ss teams one by one today.
After entered their sparring room, the faceless replica appeared in the room.
Tang Li Xue kept staring at the replica referee with the eyes full of curiosity.
One of the teams from Executor ss students gave 5,000 credits to the referee, and they stared at Tang Li Xue as if they were waiting for Tang Li Xue to do something.
"Little Xue, you must give the credits you bet to referee before the battle, so the incident like yesterday will not happen." Bing Yi nudged Tang Li Xue''s arm and whispered.
"Oh, so it''s like that. I understand." Tang Li Xue nodded. She took out her bronze card and transferred 15,000 credits to the referee since she already promised to pay 3 times if she losester.
The executor ss studentsughed at Tang Li Xue even harder when Tang Li Xue transferred 15,000 credits to the referee. Their mockingughs were so annoying as if they already won and Tang Li Xue''s 15,000 credits already entered their pocket.
Li Jing''s team and executor ss students'' other teams that did not involve in the current battle could only stand at the corner of the room to watch.
While Tang Li Xue''s team and the three red-robed students stood in the middle of the room. After some discussions, Tang Li Xue decided to let the executor ss students chose the arena they wanted.
"Sparring Room Number 1476, choosing arena: Ancient Tomb." The female executor ss student shouted.
The sparring room turned dark in an instant, and their surrounding scenepletely changed.
All of them in the middle of a giant stone room with many giant pirs, there were also many stone staircases around them, and arge luxurious coffin at the center of the room.
Different from the open arena like Colosseum, this Ancient Tomb was in the closed room.
The dark environment here made them hard to see their surroundings. The ground here also did not t like in Colosseum, because there were many stone staircases.
"Ready!" The replica referee hoarse sound resounded through the entire Ancient Tomb.
"BEGIN!"
The three red-robed students vanished after they heard the referee''s words.
''So this is why they choose this dark room arena because they can bring their best abilities in a dark environment.'' Tang Li Xue thought.
"Xue? Where are you?" Hei Yinghao asked with an anxious tone.
"Little Xue!" Bing Yi also shouted while looking at Tang Li Xue.
''Eh? They can''t see me? Oh... Yes, I almost forget this [Shadow Striders]''s equipment effect!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter.
Equipment Effect: Shadow Walker (Turned invisible in the dark ce).
Tang Li Xue wanted tough out loud when she remembered this equipment effect.
"You two don''t need to worry about me. Just focus on defeating them." Tang Li Xue whispered to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao while activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy.
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy turnedpletely invisible under the cover of the darkness.
Even if the three students from Executor ss have some ways to detect anyone in the dark but they will not be able to detect Tang Li Xue and her copy under this [Shadow Walker]''s effect!
While Tang Li Xue and her copy with their [Night Vision] skill made them capable of seeing everything in the dark.
She could even see the three Executor ss students stealthy moved at the side of the stone room tried to approaching Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao from their blind spot.
Tang Li Xue alreadyughed loudly in her heart. This match was clearly a free win for Tang Li Xue.
''But it will be too boring if I ambush the three of them at once from behind now and win just like that. Let''s see what they can do first!'' Tang Li Xue decided to sit at the nearby stone staircase leisurely while her perfect copy still in standby near Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
A male red-robed student made a grasping motion with his palm after his team was close enough with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
[Shadow Bind]!
"What?! I... I can''t move!" Bing Yi gritted her teeth and tried to move her hand but failed to even twitch her finger.
"I also can''t move!" Hei Yinghao''s expression turned solemn, but he did not panic at all. Among the three of them, Hei Yinghao has the most experience in battle, so he always the calmest one when faced with any different kind of unexpected situations like this.
''Oh? What an interesting ability! Let''s try to copy it!'' Tang Li Xue told her perfect copy to activate her [Mirror of the Moon].
However, Tang Li Xue immediately something was not right.
''Eh... why do I feel so strange?'' Tang Li Xue frowned and tried to inspect her [Mirror of the Moon] in her status window.
[Mirror of the Moon]: Demonic Tune.
Tang Li Xue instantly realized why she felt strange. It was because she did not get the system notification after her perfect copy copied the [Shadow Bind] using the [Mirror of the Moon]!
After stopped Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao''s movement, the other male red-robed students rushed toward them.
The male red-robed student''s figure turned ck as the ck smoke emitted out from his body, and he blended with the darkness.
[Shadow Form]!
Crrrssss...
The ck smoke from his body was very corrosive as it even melted the stone ground where he stepped on.
It could be easily imagined what will happen if that ck smoke emitted out from his body touched Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Tang Li Xue told her perfect copy to use the divine ability it copied before.
Tang Li Xue''s copy also made grasping motion like what the male red-robed student did before, and the ck male student stopped moving like a statue.
[Shadow Bind]!
The ck male student: ''???!!!''
"I can''t move! You stupid, why the hell are you using your [Shadow Bind] to me too?!" The ck male student scolded his teammate.
"What are you talking about?! I did not do anything!" The male red-robed student shouted back in anger.
"Really? Tsk! There are only two of them tied up, thest one must have the same ability as you!" The ck male student warned his teammates.
''This [Shadow Bind] is not bad, but I can only use it in a dark environment like this, and I also can''t move while binding the others with this divine ability.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head in disappointment.
"Come out, my [Shadow Knights]!" The female red-robed student murmured softly.
Twenty-two shadows rose from the darkness, and their ck figures formed into twenty-two ck armored knights.
''Woah, that''s a really cool divine ability there! I will take it!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter in excitement.
[Mirror of the Moon]!
Copy Start!
Name: Shadow Knights
Type: Divine Ability
Copy Completed!
Tang Li Xue tried to activate the [Shadow Knights] and summoned out some shadows but unfortunately, she was failed to summon out anything.
[No soul absorbed by the [Shadow Knights] divine ability yet! Soul in stock: 0]
''Wait... what? Did I fail? Um, no... It seems I need to absorb some souls to summon these Shadow Knights. Tsk... What a troublesome ability!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance.
''Wait a minute, I wonder if I can also use the divine ability my perfect clone copied with her [Mirror of the Moon]?! Let''s try it!'' Tang Li Xue stood up and walked towards the female red-robed student and her twenty-two Shadow Knights.
[Shadow Bind]!
Tang Li Xue made a grasping motion and the shadows of the female red-robed student along with her twenty-two Shadow Knights were flickering a bit.
"Go, my boys! Finish those two for me!" The female red-robed student ordered all of her Shadow Knights, but all of her Shadow Knights still did not move at all.
The female red-robed student frowned, and she tried to move closer to her Shadow Knights before giving an order once again, but she immediately realized that she also could not move right now.
"What are you doing?! Quickly and help us! Just knock out these two first so we can focus on thest one!" The male red-robed student that using [Shadow Bind] to immobilize Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao shouted to the female red-robed student.
"I... I also cannot move..." The female red-robed student blushed in embarrassment and answered with a soft voice.
"Stupid, then order your Shadow Knights to do it for you!" The immobilized ck male student scolded in anger.
"But... But... My... all my Shadow Knights also cannot move." The female red-robed student grimaced as if she wanted to cry so badly but no tears came out.
"WHAT?! That''s impossible! How can that ugly b*tch locked so many targets at once?!" The immobilized ck male student widened his eyes in disbelief.
''Woah! This is wonderful! So I can use whatever divine ability my perfect clone copied too! What the hell! Doesn''t it mean I can copy two divine abilities?! I can copy one and my perfect clone can copy one! But we can use both of divine abilities we copied!'' Tang Li Xue squinted her topaz blue eyes in realization and amazement.
Chapter 177 - 177: High-Temperature Battle!
Chapter 177 - 177: High-Temperature Battle!
''It seems this is enough for this battle. Let''s end this!'' Tang Li Xue let her perfect copy canceled its [Shadow Bind], and the ck male student could move again now.
The ck male student swiftly dashed to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao again to finish them as soon as possible so the three of them can deal with Tang Li Xue togetherter.
The ck male student did not know that although Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao still could not move but both of them could still use their divine abilities!
Both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao already waited for any foes toe near them so they could activate their divine abilities to escape from their immobilization state.
[Freezing Field]!
Bing Yi unleashed her divine ability the moment the ck male student was about reached them.
The temperature around her dropped in an instant, and everything around her was covered by a thickyer of white frost!
The ck male student and Hei Yinghao bodies also frozen solid by Bing Yi''s [Freezing Field]!
However, Bing Yi did not worry about Hei Yinghao at all, because she already knew how strong he was.
While Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already stealthily stood behind the male red-robed student that used [Shadow Bind] on Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao, but he still did not sense Tang Li Xue''s presence at all.
It seems Tang Li Xue''s persistent daily training on [Art of Concealment] did not end up in vain.
Tang Li Xue''s copy waved her slender hand and created arge white hammer using her [Energy Maniption].
More than a two-meter tall giant white hammer instantly appeared in Tang Li Xue copy''s hand.
She held it with both of her hands and swung it down forcefully onto the male red-robed student''s head from behind.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
The giant hammer crushed the male red-robed student along with the stone ground where he stood leaving a gaping hole and many giant cracks on the surrounding ground.
Tang Li Xue was really surprised by the giant hammer''s power, and she also felt that controlling her copy''s strength was actually a lot harder than controlling her own strength.
It was as if she had suddenly grown a new extra pair of hands and used it to hold a fragile egg without making it break.
''I should try to train my control over my perfect copy more if I have some spare timeter.'' Tang Li Xue thought for a while.
Tang Li Xue quickly urged her perfect copy to check the male red-robed student''s condition. It would be a disaster if she identally killed him.
Tang Li Xue''s copy raised her giant hammer and checked the male red-robed student''s condition.
She immediately realized there was a thinyer of shield covering the unconscious male red-robed student.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and stared at the faceless referee as she thought: ''So this is what this fake referee can do. Not bad! Now I don''t need to worry about not being able to control my strength properly anymore!''
After being released from the [Shadow bind], Bing Yi approached the ck male student and increased her [Freezing Field] output, made the thick frostyer covering the ck male student''s body gotten thicker and thicker.
While Hei Yinghao instantly shed towards the female red-robed student who was already immobilized by Tang Li Xue''s [Shadow Bind].
BAAAANG~!!!
And he did not even hesitate at all tond a powerful kick on the female red-robed student''s fairly beautiful face.
The female red-robed student flew backward several meters away and crashed hard onto the solid stone staircase until her body nted onto it.
All of the female red-robed student''s Shadow Knights were scattered away in the darkness and turned back into shadow after the female red-robed student fell unconscious.
"Inspector ss Team wins!" The faceless referee spoke in a monotonous tone.
Tang Li Xue canceled her [Twin Moons] divine ability, and her perfect copy instantly vanished into thin air before the sparring room turned back from the Ancient Tomb into the normal Sparring Room.
The other two Executor ss teams started to hesitate when Tang Li Xue''s team have won their first match pretty neatly.
"What? Don''t tell me you are scared now?!" Bing Yi sneered mockingly at all of the Executor ss students after the previous Executor ss team carried by the medical squad.
"Scared? Hahaha... Don''t get too c.o.c.ky with just one win! Your team is only lucky because the previous team chose the dark arena!" One of the female Executor ss students sneered back and mocked Bing Yi.
All the Executor ss students thought Tang Li Xue has darkness type divine ability like [Shadow Bind] too that only usable in dark ces, and that was the only reason Tang Li Xue''s team could win so easily.
In other words, they thought Tang Li Xue''s team was only winning the previous match because of luck and coincidence!
"Alright! This time you all can also choose the arena you like too." Hei Yinghao said to all the Executor ss students.
"Okay, we will choose then! Sparring Room Number 1476, choosing arena: Volcano Arena." The female executor ss student shouted after she gave 5,000 credits to the faceless referee.
The scene in the sparring room instantly faded away, and their surrounding scenepletely changed.
All of them were currently stood in the middle of the volcano!
There was the sea ofva everywhere, and they were stood at the only solid ground in the middle of theva sea.
The temperature around here was also extremely high, enough to boil the cold water in a few minutes.
The expression of Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao turned solemn when they saw their surroundings.
Only Tang Li Xue stood there silently tried her hardest to resist her urge tough out loud.
''ying with fire? With me? Bwahahaha... This match will be even easier than the previous one if I can use my me of Pride. Oh well, I will see first what they are up to.'' Tang Li Xue grinned happily behind her fox mask.
ying with fire in front of Tang Li Xue after she assimted with me of Pride?
She was even currently cultivating the [Crimson Phoenix] chapter of the [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art]!
Furthermore, her current body was already tempered by [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] once, and she already had the [Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline] flowing in her veins!
Nobody could guess how high Tang Li Xue''s fire resistance right now! Not even Tang Li Xue herself!
But if they could still hurt Tang Li Xue with ordinary me orva after all of these, Tang Li Xue would rathermit suicide with a block of tofu!
[me Giant]!
The first female red-robed student used her divine ability, and something big rose from inside the sea ofva.
ROOOOAAAAAARRRR~~!!!
Ten meters tall [me Giant] made from the scorchingva was roaring menacingly at Tang Li Xue''s team.
''Oh, this divine ability is pretty good! Let''s try it!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone in excitement as she activated her divine ability.
[Mirror of the Moon]!
Copy Start!
Name: me Giant
Type: Divine Ability
Copy Completed!
The other female red-robed student also activated her divine ability at the same time.
[zing Firewall]!
The ten meters tall scorching firewall trapped Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao.
The third female red-robed student wasughing out loud at Tang Li Xue''s team as she said: "Hahahaha... This is the end for all of you! Bye-bye! I hope all of you are strong enough to not die because of this!"
[Scorching Meteor Strike]!
The big me meteor was summoned out from nothing and fell down from the sky with inconceivable speed toward where Tang Li Xue and the other stood!
There was ten meters tall high-temperature firewall surrounded them to prevent them from escaping.
The only way for them to escape from this cmity was to forcefully breakthrough this scorching firewall and ran towards where the three female Executor ss students stood up now since the Scorching Meteor will not follow them and strike their own master or user!
But there was also a strong [me Giant] stood in front of the three girls from Executor ss, protecting them closely from any harm and foes.
If Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao dared to approach them carelessly, that [me Giant] would definitely strike them heavily!
"Rise! My me giant!" Tang Li Xue chanted when the big Scorching Meteor almost hit her team.
The giant fist has shot out from the sea ofva behind Tang Li Xue!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM~!!!
The giant fist shattered the big Scorching Meteor into tiny pieces in one punch!
"W... Wha... What the hell is that?! NO! This is impossible! How could this be?!" One of the three female Executor ss students screamed in disbelief and horror.
More than twenty meters tall me giant rose from the sea ofva!
Different from the female Executor ss student''s [me Giant], the me covered the entire body of this me giant was deep blue. Its size also more than twice bigger than the female Executor ss student''s [me Giant]!
ROOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRR~~!!!
Its roaring sound was also far louder and more intimidating than what Executor ss student has.
The three female Executor ss students almost kneeled in fear and trepidation.
''Eh? Why my me giant is bigger and stronger than theirs? Oh, I get it! It must be because all of my current stats are far higher than them after I evolved into [Umon] grade! Tsk, Tsk, Tsk... Let''s see how powerful this giant truly is! Go, destroy them!'' Tang Li Xue silently ordered in her mind.
Tang Li Xue''s [me Giant] sprinted toward the Executor ss Student''s [me Giant]!
The ground shook violently in each step it took, but it did not affect its speed at all! On contrary, Tang Li Xue''s [me Giant] was quite fast for its huge size.
When Tang Li Xue''s [me Giant] and Executor ss Student''s [me Giant] stood face to face, it was as if a ten years old child facing an a.d.u.l.t!
BBBAAAAAAAANGGGG~~!!!
It only took a single powerful p from Tang Li Xue''s deep blue [me Giant] to turn the Executor ss Student''s [me Giant] back into a pile ofva mud!
"Wa... Wait... Stop! Stop it! We... We are sur..." One of the female Executor ss Student shouted out in panic while raised her both of her hands.
But Tang Li Xue''s deep blue [me Giant] already took a deep breath and...
BWWWOOOOOOOSSSSHHHH~!!!
Spouting out a huge amount of deep blue me from its huge mouth toward the three female Executor ss Students.
"AAAAHHHHH!!!" The three female Executor ss Students screamed as the extremely high temperature deep blue me scorched their clothes and bodies.
Fortunately, a thinyer of shield protected them at the right timing before the deep blue me could touch their bodies and turned them into nothingness.
"Inspector ss Team wins!" The faceless referee shouted again in a monotonous tone.
Tang Li Xue canceled her [me Giant] divine ability after she heard that, and the deep blue [me Giant] lifelessly crumbled apart.
The medical squad hurriedly carried the three female Executor ss students since their burning wounds were quite severe this time.
"Okay, where is the next team?! Let''s hurry and start! I have something important to do for after this!" Tang Li Xue urged thest Executor ss team.
Tang Li Xue nned to visit the Inscriptionist Association today after this so she could learn about the Inscription more detailed and find an experienced teacher to teach her the correct way to inscribe the higher rank talisman.
"Um... Eh, where are they?" Bing Yi looked around but she failed to find thest team from Executor ss.
"Eh... I ask where they want to go, and they said something like going to the toilet a minute ago." Li Jing answered innocently.
Tang Li Xue''s lips twitched after she heard that. It was clear that thest team from Executor ss already ran away in fear after they witnessed Tang Li Xue''s prowess.
Chapter 178 - 178: Inscriptionist Association!
Chapter 178 - 178: Inscriptionist Association!
Tang Li Xue was a bit disappointed when she found the quest given by the system was still notpleted yet.
''Oh,e on! I have already defeated 3 teams from Executor ss so far! Why this quest is still notpleted yet even now!'' Tang Li Xue frowned while grumbled in her heart.
''Urgh, but I must admit it that I win the previous 3 battles quite easily while the [Hard] level difficulty quest has never been easy before. It seems I need to fight some Executor ss teams again for a few more days before I canplete this quest.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment.
The faceless referee gave all the total of 25,000 credits to Tang Li Xue and vanished back into the formation inside the sparring room.
15,000 credits were Tang Li Xue''s own credits so Tang Li Xue won 10,000 credits in today''s battle!
Tang Li Xue tried to give 3,500 credits each to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao, but they refused Tang Li Xue''s offer immediately.
Under Tang Li Xue''s insistence, Both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao finally agreed to ept 3,000 credits each while Tang Li Xue got 4,000 credits.
All of them decided to go back to the residential building and ate their lunch at the luxurious restaurant on the first floor.
Yaya also pouted at Tang Li Xue at first because Tang Li Xue did not allow her to participate in any battle, but she immediately forgot all of her grievances after Tang Li Xue bought it a lot of delicious foods.
''It''s such a pity if I cannot let Yaya gain more battle experience here in this Myriad Foxes Academy. I will ask Instructor Lan to find us a good sparring teacher with strong wind elemental divine ability after she came backter.'' Tang Li Xue made some ns in her mind while eating the delicious delicacies in front of her.
''Not only Yaya can learn how to use her wind elemental power from that teacher, but Yaya can also learn the wind elemental divine ability from that teacher! Hehehehe... I am so smart as usual!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone in excitement.
After eating their fill, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others were heading together to the mission hall to ept some daily missions while Tang Li Xue took Yaya and walking towards the Inscriptionist Association''s building.
.....
...
.
Walking on the bustling street in midday, Tang Li Xue recalled the shock and reference that appeared on the residential building staff''s face when Tang Li Xue was inquiring about the location of the Inscriptionist Association.
She secretly found out that Inscriptionist Master was one of the most respectable professions in the Myriad Foxes Academy and quietly sighed while mumbled softly: "It seems I really did not make a wrong choice in choosing Inscriptionist as my first profession."
It looked like the noble identity that Inscriptionist had was something that was entrenched into the heart of everyone in the Myriad Foxes Academy. Otherwise, these people would not disy the expression of reverence when talking about Inscriptionist Association.
Following the direction that the residential building staff had told her, Tang Li Xue slowly passed by a couple of very long bustling streets. She roamed for quite a while with Yaya, who sat on her right shoulder and kept looking around their surrounding buildings and stores with her glittering green emerald eyes, which filled with intense curiosity.
Tang Li Xue slowed her footsteps to a stop and raised her head. She and Yaya gazed at the tall majestic building that had appeared in front of her eyes.
This building was also uniquely designed like the other important buildings, such as education building, residential building, mission hall, etc. Looking from the outline from outside, it appeared like a gigantic white obelisk. There were four floating giant ck obelisks which continuously orbiting slowly around the gigantic white obelisk.
Tang Li Xue''s gaze fell onto a pale purple-colored metal inscription board outside of the building. There were two words in an ancient-looking script that appeared slightly blurry in a flickering gold faint glow.
INSCRIPTIONIST ASSOCIATION
Tang Li Xue turned her head and took a nce around the giant gate of the Inscriptionist Association. She realized that most of those who passed by this majestic building would throw a suspicious gaze toward Tang Li Xue, who was standing foolishly in awe outside the Inscriptionist Association.
Tang Li Xue also realized that all of those people wore a pin badge on their right chest, but each of them wore a different color pin badge.
''Interesting! That pin should be a symbol of status like our badge indicating their Inscriptionist level.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her heart.
Ignoring the surrounding suspicious gazes, Tang Li Xue brought Yaya and striding into the Inscriptionist Association.
When she entered the building, two fully armed guards that had already noticed her for a while extended their hands to block her. In a slightly hoarse unclear voice, one of them asked: "Little girl, this is Inscriptionist Association. You must make an appointment first with an Inscriptionist Master before you can enter and ce your order."
"Eh? I don''t want to meet with any Inscriptionist Master or ce any order. I only want to join the Inscriptionist Association as a new member." Tang Li Xue tried to exin.
"Oh? So you are an Inscriptionist too?! But you look like a young freshman student!" One of the fully armed guards asked with disbelief tone.
"I am a freshman student, but I am also a beginner Inscriptionist. I want to join Inscriptionist Association to deepen my knowledge about runes and Inscriptions, so I can advance further." Tang Li Xue nodded to the armed guard.
The two fully armed guards looked at Tang Li Xue full of awe and reverence.
Both of them were already guarding the entrance of the Inscriptionist Association for a long time, so they knew how hard it was to be an Inscriptionist.
If it was that easy to be an Inscriptionist, both of them would already choose to be an Inscriptionist rather than be a mere entrance guard.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue was a young freshman student who entered the Myriad Foxes Academy just recently!
Her potential was surely limitless!
Who knows if this little freshman student will be a big shot in Inscriptionist Association in the future!
"Do you have a rmendation letter from your Inscription teacher?" The fully armed guard asked Tang Li Xue again but with a more polite and respectable tone this time.
"Uh? Rmendation letter? I also must have a rmendation from my teacher to enter?" Hearing this, Tang Li Xue''s heart stopped for a beat. In her mind, she doubtfullyined: ''What the hell is this rmendation letter thingy?! I don''t even have an Inscription teacher! Where can I ask for this rmendation letter?!''
Tang Li Xue helplessly shook her head. Just as Tang Li Xue was worrying about what to do, a nice smelling wind suddenly blew from behind her.
"Eh? It''s you? What are you doing here?"
Tang Li Xue frowned slightly when she felt a warm breath blew on her left ear. The gentle sound came from behind her also seemed very familiar, so she turned around to look.
A familiar masked figure stood so close behind her. They were so close that the fox mask on Tang Li Xue''s face and that man''s face almost touched when Tang Li Xue turned around.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes in displeased and took a few steps backward while grumbled silently in her heard: ''Is there any need to stand so close behind me?''
But her topaz blue eyes immediately lit up when she realized the familiar masked figure''s identity.
He was actually Teacher Li Wei who taught today''s ss about Evolution!
He also wore a purple-colored pin badge on his right chest. Tang Li Xue did not know what it means, but it seems this male teacher has a quite high ranking position in this Inscriptionist Association.
Both of the fully armed guards even lowered their heads and respectfully saluted him when they saw this Teacher Li Wei.
"Teacher Li! I... I want to join Inscriptionist Association, but I don''t have any Rmendation letter with me now." Tang Li Xue scratched her head in embarrassment.
Tang Li Xue wanted to ask Teacher Li''s help, but she did not know if he will help her or not since Teacher Li was not Tang Li Xue''s Instructor, so he did not have any obligation on helping her at all.
"Oh, that is not a problem. I will help you, but what you will do to repay me?" Teacher Li answered back with a teasing tone.
"I... I can pay some credits to Teacher Li... But I don''t have much with me now. How about I owe it first? I promise I will definitely repay it soon." Tang Li Xue became really nervous.
All Inscriptionists were rich people, so paying a few tens of thousands of credits would not enough to fill their appetite.
Teacher Li chuckled softly when he saw Tang Li Xue''s anxious expression and said: "I am only joking. Am I seem like that kind of cheap person to you? Let''s go! I will bring you inside to sign up as a new member!"
Hearing this, Tang Li Xue sighed in relief. She followed Teacher Li closely from behind and quickly walked toward the inside of the building.
Entering the building, a faint floral scent drifted into Tang Li Xue''s nose, giving her a refreshed feeling.
The interior of the hall did not have many people, with only a few people quietly performing their inscription work in front of their clients. Appearing to have heard the sound of footsteps, some of them lifted their head and swept gazes toward Teacher Li and Tang Li Xue, but they immediately saluted at Teacher Li respectfully.
Teacher Li waved his right hand, and they all began to once again bury themselves in their works while Teacher Li brought Tang Li Xue to the front desk of the Inscriptionist Association Building.
Looked at the current situation, Tang Li Xue guessed that this Teacher Li definitely has a high position in this Inscriptionist Association.
She was so sure that everything will go on smoothly with this Teacher Li''s help but...
"Li Wei! I have not seen you for a few months, where have you been?" A cheerful girl ran towards Teacher Li, but she immediately stopped and stared at Tang Li Xue in an unfriendly manner.
"Who is this woman? Why she also wore a mask like you?" The cheerful girl''s mood turned sour and asked Teacher Li as if he cheated on her.
The girl''s age was around twenty. She had a delicate and pretty face that was enchanting. Her figure was a little petite, but her body was shockingly well developed. On her extremely matured delicate body, she wore a purple colored dress which perfectly matched with the purple pin badge on her right chest.
It was the first time Tang Li Xue saw this girl, but she could already smell a pungent smell of jealousy and trouble oozing out from this purple dressed girl.
Chapter 179 - 179: Doubt!
Chapter 179 - 179: Doubt!
"Good day to you, Miss Zi Yan." Teacher Li Wei held his fist and saluted to the purple dressed girl.
"This littless is one of the students in my ss. She is a beginner inscriptionist, and she wants to join Inscriptionist Association today. Her name is... What is your name?" Teacher Li Wei tried to introduce Tang Li Xue to Zi Yan, but he immediately realized that he also did not know Tang Li Xue''s name yet, so he turned his head and asked her.
"Greeting to Miss Zi Yan. This student''s name is Tang Li Xue." Tang Li Xue held her fist like Teacher Li Wei and saluted to the purple dressed girl too. She introduced herself with a respectful tone.
Tang Li Xue surely did not want to get into any dispute with one of the big shots in this Inscriptionist Association like this purple dressed girl before she even joined the Association, which was why she tried to be as polite as possible to this beautiful purple dressed girl.
Unfortunately, this purple dressed girl took Tang Li Xue''s hold fist salute as a provocation since Tang Li Xue tried to imitate Li Wei''s movement again, so she obviously did not n to let Tang Li Xue off so easily.
"Oh, so you are only Brother Li Wei''s student. But why do you need to wear a fox mask like him? I really hate it when a lowly student tries to imitate my Brother Li Wei. Take it off now!" Zi Yan reprimanded Tang Li Xue harshly with a disrespectful tone.
Tang Li Xue''s heart sank when she heard Zi Yan''s harsh words and grumbled in her heart: ''Sigh, how the hell I can get caught in this kind of horrible situation?! I don''t even do anything! For God''s sake, I just want to join Inscriptionist Association peacefully like everyone else!''
Tang Li Xue could see clearly that this Zi Yan held intense romantic feelings for Teacher Li Wei, but unfortunately, Teacher Li Wei did not have any romantic feelings for Zi Yan.
But no matter what happened between Teacher Li Wei and Zi Yan, it should not have any rtion with Tang Li Xue at all. She only met Teacher Li Wei in the mixed ss today after all!
Tang Li Xue started to regret it very much for asking Teacher Li Wei''s help at the Inscriptionist Association''s entrance before.
''Sigh... I should have wait for Instructor Lan toe back and ask her to make a Rmendation Letter for me. It''s already toote for me to regret it. What should I do now? But his girl will surely be even more pissed off if I refuse to listen to her words. It seems I have no other choice.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation.
She held her white fox mask tightly with her slender hand. She decided to obey Zi Yan''s words and take off her mask.
It was not like her face was disfigured or ugly anyway. There was nothing to shame about her current mesmerizing peerless looks. She just did not want to pick any unnecessary trouble because of it, but who knows she still managed to make Zi Yan jealous even after she was wearing a mask to cover her face like now.
''Girl, just don''t regret itter if your Dear Brother Li fell head over heels with me after he saw my true appearance!'' Tang Li Xue said in her heart.
However, before Tang Li Xue could pull her fox mask off from her face, a masculine hand immediately held her slender hand and stopped her from doing so.
"Zi Yan, she is my student, so please don''t make things hard for her. Let''s go, Little Xue!" Teacher Li Wei pulled Tang Li Xue''s slender hand, and they were heading toward the front desk together in hand.
Tang Li Xue frowned, and she reflexively wanted to pull her hand away from Teacher Li Wei''s grasp, but he gripped her hand so tightly that Tang Li Xue could not do anything with her current strength.
Zi Yan gritted her teeth in hatred and anger when she saw Li Wei intimately held Tang Li Xue''s hand, and she decided to follow them closely from behind. If stares could kill someone, Zi Yan''s murderous stare from behind would already kill Tang Li Xue more than a hundred times.
"Good day, Master Li, is there anything I can help you with?" The female front desk staff smiled gently while greeted Teacher Li Wei and asked politely.
"Good day, I want to register my student as Inscriptionist Association''s new member. Please help me with the procedure." Teacher Li Wei told the female front desk staff while pulled Tang Li Xue closer to him.
"Oh? Thisdy here is very young but has already be a beginner Inscriptionist? Congrattions to Master Li for getting a young and talented disciple!" The female front desk staff giggled and congratted Teacher Li Wei.
"She is not my disciple, only one of the students in the ss I am teaching today." Teacher Li Wei exined truthfully.
"Eh? This Miss is not Master Li''s disciple?! It''s such a pity. Then miss, please tell me your name, fox species, and your teacher''s name to me. I need to register it for you." The female front desk staff took out a pale yellow ancient-looking parchment made of unknown beast skin.
"Tang Li Xue, Imperial Moon Fox, as for teacher... I don''t have any Inscriptionist Teacher. I am self-taught." Tang Li Xue answered earnestly.
As for why she said her fox species was [Imperial Moon Fox] and not [Imperial Sun and Moon Fox], it was because the [Imperial Sun and Moon Fox] species was a variant species created by the system solely to solve Tang Li Xue''s predicament before. So no one could find any [Imperial Sun and Moon Fox] other than Tang Li Xue!
"Little missy, please don''t joke around. Species with ''Imperial'' and ''Royal'' bloodline have the highest status among the other species. You are lucky we are in the Myriad Foxes Academy of Lightwind Continent''s branch. You will certainly be executed on the spot if you are in the Myriad Foxes Academy of Central Continent." The female staff frowned deeply and patiently warned Tang Li Xue.
''Eh? So any species with ''Imperial'' and ''Royal'' are really special?! Hehehe... it seems I am really lucky to choose this! Isn''t that mean I am like an Imperial Princess in the human world?'' Tang Li Xue grinned widely behind her fox mask.
She did not know the huge problem she will encounter in the future because of this or she will probably regret it very much.
"Errr... then Spirit Moon Fox." Tang Li Xue thought for a while and decided to tell everyone that she belongs to the [Spirit Moon Fox] species in the future.
"Okay, Spirit Moon Fox and... you don''t have any Inscriptionist Teacher?! Self-taught?!" The female staff recorded Tang Li Xue species, but she jumped in surprise once again. Her mouth even opened so widely, and she forgot to close it until now.
Teacher Li Wei has already stunned since long ago when Tang Li Xue mentioned it for the first time.
Tang Li Xue did not know, but Inscription was already extremely hard to learn even when someone learns it from the proper teacher.
Self-taught in Inscription was almost impossible even if one has a book about the runes because everything such as the correct way to hold the inscription pen, how to use spirit energy in tandem when inscribing the rune onto the talisman, and many other important things will affect the sess chance of the talisman creation.
In fact, it was impossible for Tang Li Xue to seed without the system''s help likeplete knowledge from the [Sub-Profession Package] and the golden [Inscription Pen]!
Even with a dedicated proper teacher to teach in 24/7, it would take more than ten years for a gifted person... or fox to reach beginner Inscriptionist!
But then again Tang Li Xue''s system function was to speed up Tang Li Xue''s growth, not only in terms of strength like evolutions, skills, and divine abilities but also knowledge like Deity Coins and this [Sub-Profession Package].
"Hahahaha... Reaching Beginner rank Inscriptionist by self-taught? What a big liar?!" Zi Yan deliberately shouted loudly. She wanted to attract everyone''s attention to humiliate Tang Li Xue.
"Even once in thousand years prodigy still needs the guidance of a Teacher for more than ten years to reach Beginner rank Inscriptionist! Inscriptionist Association is the ce where all the Inscriptionists in Myriad Fox Academy gathering but I never even see you here! And you must be a freshman since you still attending sses in Education Building, so how could you learn about Inscription?!" Zi Yan sneered mockingly at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue started to get annoyed by Zi Yan, but her mind still as clear as spring. Her brain spun faster and faster to find some ways out from this situation without offending this big shot for too much.
"Of course, I learn it from outside of Myriad Fox Academy. My previous diseased master is an Inscriptionist Master from the Human Race. He lived in seclusion on the deepest part of the mountain. He did not teach anything to me and treat me as his pet, but I kept on listening to everything he taught to his personal disciple before he died, so I got all of my knowledge about Inscription from him." Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice other than using a clich¨¦ excuse from almost all MC novels she read before.
''Where does my knowledgee from? My dead master of course!''
''Where is he now? Buried deep in his grave! What? You want to look for him?!''
It was a clich¨¦ excuse but it was surely effective to cover her trail. Especially since she could not tell them that she got her knowledge from her system.
''What? You need to learn for more than ten years to reach the Beginner Inscriptionist level? Okay then, no problem, I will follow you!''
"I learn everything from him for almost twenty years before he died, and I came to this Myriad Foxes Academy, after that I self-taught for a few months in this Myriad Foxes Academy." Tang Li Xue continued to tell her lies without flinching. She even put a sad gesture as if she was sniffing sadly behind her mask.
Teacher Li Wei nodded his head in understanding and said to Tang Li Xue: "Just tell her the name of your teacher. It is nothing important, only to record your current personal information."
Tang Li Xue nodded to Teacher Li Wei and turned back to female staff: "My human''s Inscription teacher name is Tang Sanzang."
''It is not like you will know about my Uncle Sun''s master name anyway!''
"Stop! Wait a minute!" Zi Yan once again stopped the female staff from recording Tang Li Xue''s personal information.
"How can you all be so sure that this little girl is not lying about being a Beginner Inscriptionist?! Wouldn''t it be better if we tested her skill in inscription first before recording her name as a Beginner Inscriptionist?! Who knows if this little girl lied about being a Beginner Inscriptionist!" Zi Yan stared at Tang Li Xue full of suspicion.
"Miss Zi Yan, could you please stop ndering my student?" Teacher Li Wei started to lose his temper and warned Zi Yan in displeasure.
"I am not ndering her. I just want to make sure so she will not tarnish my Inscriptionist Association''s nameter. By the way, I also bring my new student here to register her as a new member. How about we test their skill together?" Zi Yan sneered provocatively at Tang Li Xue.
Teacher Li Wei nced at Tang Li Xue to ask for her opinion.
Tang Li Xue did not have any problem with testing her skill in Inscription, but the problem was her golden [Inscription Pen] could not be seen or detected by the others other than her.
She also did not have enough confidence in inscribing a talisman using another Inscription Pen.
Chapter 180 - 180: Inscriptionist Test!
Chapter 180 - 180: Inscriptionist Test!
In this kind of situation, even Teacher Li Wei could not refuse Zi Yan''s suggestion so tantly since she also volunteered to let her student to be tested as well.
Usually, under the rmendation from Master rank Inscriptionist like Teacher Li Wei or Zi Yan, both Tang Li Xue and Zi Yan''s student did not need to be tested and could join Inscriptionist Association directly as new members.
But now Zi Yan suggested her own student to get tested along with Tang Li Xue too!
"Alright! I will ept the test!" Tang Li Xue said firmly with her sweet luscious voice.
Zi Yan''s mocking smile became even brighter after she heard Tang Li Xue''s agreement, but before she could say anything to provoke Tang Li Xue further...
"Cough... Okay..." Noticing that the smell of gunpowder was already bing increasingly dense between the two Master rank Inscriptionists, even though it was only about registering new members of the Inscriptionist Association, the female staff could only helplessly shake her head.
After this, the female staff faced Tang Li Xue who was stood in front of the front desk: "Miss Tang, please wait for a moment. I will register Miss Zi Yan''s student first before escorting you two to the test room."
Tang Li Xue stepped aside and stood behind Teacher Li Wei to let Zi Yan''s student registering with the female staff first.
Tang Li Xue nced at Zi Yan''s new student and found her a bit familiar.
Ady in a white dress elegantly walked onto the front desk. A tall figure with transparent eyes like the cold clear spring on top of a snowy mountain, an exquisite face, and long eyebrows. On her tall and nimble body was a tight white colored dress.
The white-colored clothing and her pale white skinplemented each other, giving the girl a special icy beauty. What caused others to be most amazed about was that this girl in white dressed actually possessed long smooth white hair that extended to her waist.
"Bing Shui, White cial Frost Fox, my teacher is Master Zi Yan." The icy but lovely voice was like the clear sound of snow rocks on a snow mountain tapping on one another, unleashing an extremely moving sound.
''Bing... Shui? Did this girl have some rtions with Bing Yi? And... White cial Frost Fox? Isn''t that the species of the three-tailed [Rare] grade fox I met before participating in the entry trial of Myriad Foxes Academy?'' Tang Li Xue tapped her chin while kept staring at Bing Shui and thinking deeply.
"Okay, I already recorded it. Miss Bing and Miss Tang, please follow me to the Examination Room!" The female staff smiled at both of them and escorted them deeper into Inscriptionist Association''s building.
Tang Li Xue woke up from her daze and followed the female staff from behind. Zi Yan and Teacher Li Wei also followed them quietly.
But no one realized that Zi Yan stealthy sent a secret message through hermunication talisman.
All of them entered the empty closed room where the other Inscriptionist usually did their work without being interrupted.
The room was not that big. It only has ten seats and tables, but it has everything Inscriptionists need to create talisman such as several standard inscription pens, many stacks of nk talisman, and several bottles contained blood from different kinds of demonic beasts.
Tang Li Xue and Bing Shui took one seat each and sat while waiting for the examiner to tell them about the rule of their exam.
"The basic requirement for a Beginner Inscriptionist is that you must be able to inscribe a rank 1 talisman. You can choose any kind of rank 1 talisman you want to inscribe, but please remember! You only have ten tries to create one rank 1 talisman, so be sure to choose the talisman you most familiar with, so you will have the highest chance of sess in inscribing it. Any question?" The female staff asked with a gentle smile on her face.
Tang Li Xue raised her slender hand and asked: "I do not have to use any item or equipment from here, right? I want to use my own item and equipment."
"No, you can''t. You must use the items and equipment from here. What if you are cheating with your item and equipment?" Zi Yan directly objected to Tang Li Xue''s request with a harsh tone.
''Dammit! What''s wrong with this fussy girl?! I already follow your request and participate in this test, but you still keep making things difficult for me! Tsk... Then I have no other choice other than lying again!'' Tang Li Xue thought for a while and cleared her throat.
"But I can''t inscribe with this kind of equipment or item from here. So does it mean I cannot join Inscriptionist Association?" Tang Li Xue said with an innocent and oblivious tone.
"What a liar! Just tell us honestly that you were just trying to stick on Brother Li Wei''s thigh! You''re only using ''joining the Inscriptionist Association'' as your excuse, but your main goal is to climb over Brother Li Wei''s bed, right?!" Zi Yan used Tang Li Xue while sneered mockingly.
Teacher Li Wei ignored Zi Yan''s usation and asked Tang Li Xue: "Little Xue, can you bring out your equipment first? You can use your equipment, but we must examine it carefully first before that."
Tang Li Xue shook her head and raised her right index finger then said: "This is my equipment!"
Everyone: "......."
Teacher Li Wei, Zi Yan, Bing Shui, and the female staff kept staring at Tang Li Xue silently as if they were looking at an idiot.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes at them and waving her right index finger around as if she was waving a magic wand while secretly channeling her [Energy Maniption] at the same time.
SWOOOOOSSSHHH~~!!!
A white spear was instantly created from Tang Li Xue''s energies and flying around her for a while.
Teacher Li Wei''s stare turned into awe after he saw what she did, and he asked: "Is that your divine ability? What is the name of this divine ability?"
"One Finger Create the World!" Tang Li Xue lied tantly again. If she said her divine ability name was [Energy Maniption], then everyone will know that Tang Li Xue actually could only create the exterior form. She could not create the item with its true function unless she knew the interior of that item and created itpletely identical to the original one.
For example, she could instantly create a sniper rifle with her [Energy Maniption], but that sniper rifle could not shot out any bullet since Tang Li Xue did not know the inside part of the sniper rifle so she could not create the interior part with her [Energy Maniption]. It will be the same if she created a car or motorbike with her [Energy Maniption] since she knew nothing about a car or motorbike engine.
''Anyway, I only need to make them believe in my divine ability for now! Then I will secretly use my golden [Inscription Pen] under the pretense of using my own divine ability to create it! Tsk... I am so smart! Uwehehehe...'' Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips in excitement.
"So you nned to use the inscription pen made from your divine ability?" Teacher Li Wei stared at Tang Li Xue and confirming what Tang Li Xue will do.
Tang Li Xue only nodded her head to answer Teacher Li Wei''s question.
"It''s not a problem. You can use your divine ability since it''s your own strength after all." The female staff agreed to let Tang Li Xue use her own divine ability to create her own inscription pen.
Tang Li Xue sneered victoriously. She secretly took out her golden [Inscription Pen] from her system inventory and used her [Energy Maniption] to coated the golden [Inscription Pen] exterior with white energies but of course, she did not cover the tip of the golden [Inscription Pen].
Tang Li Xue pricked the tip of her left index finger with the golden [Inscription Pen] and let it sucked some of her blood from it for a while.
When Zi Yan saw that Tang Li Xue even used her own blood to inscribe the talisman and not the demonic beast''s blood in the bottle on the table, she could only gnash her teeth in hatred and anger.
Zi Yan had stealthily ordered one of the staff to rigged all the inscription pens and the demonic beast''s blood in this room with the defected one before. The seat where Bing Shui sat was the only exception, Zi Yan also already secretly told Bing Shui about this before they entered the room, but now all of her efforts turned futile.
While Zi Yan kept staring at Tang Li Xue and praying for her to fail, Tang Li Xue was still in deep thinking and choosing which rune she will inscribe onto the nk talisman in her mind carefully.
''The rune I most familiar with is the Rune of Dash, and I have high confidence in inscribing one in two or three tries, but that rune is too basic and so simple. I am afraid this fussy girl will pick on me again because of itter. It seems I must take some risks and try to inscribe my best rune, the Rune of Regeneration! I am sure it should be enough to shut this fussy girl''s mouthter!'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
Tang Li Xue took one nk talisman from the stack. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
When she opened her topaz blue eyes back, her intense focus was solely locked at the inscription pen she held in her right hand and the nk talisman in front of her.
Even Teacher Li Wei nodded his head in praise when he saw Tang Li Xue''s instant focus. Even Bing Shui still needs more than ten minutes to enter her focused condition, but Tang Li Xue only needed one breath.
POOOFFF... POOOFFF... POOOFFF...
After ten minutes or so, Tang Li Xue failed three times in a row, so she immediately took a break and calmed herself down.
''This is not looking good. Being seen by others like this makes me far more nervous and anxious than usual.'' Tang Li Xue frowned a bit and thinking for a few moments.
Tang Li Xue peeked at her current Spirit stat value in her system''s status window and found out that it was at 163.
''I already raised it to 163 since two days ago. It should be fine if I raise it a bit again this time, right? Let''s try to raise it to 250 now! I hope the bad side effect is not too much.'' Tang Li Xue swallowed the saliva in her mouth and silently raised her Spirit stat form 163 to 250 with her will.
Just like before, her mind was immediately attacked by a great headache, dizziness, and nausea. Except, it was even more intense than before!
Tang Li Xue felt everything in front of her eyes spinning, and it went dark after a few moments.
Teacher Li Wei already felt something was not right, so he immediately shed to Tang Li Xue''s side and caught her back before she could fell onto the floor.
"Little Xue!" Teacher Li Wei called Tang Li Xue while used his divine ability at the same time.
A milky white light seeped out from his palm and entered Tang Li Xue''s slender body.
Tang Li Xue felt her great headache alleviated bit by bit by the milky white light, and it has vanishedpletely after a few minutes.
Surprisingly, Teacher Li Wei actually has a healing type of divine ability!
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes again after the headachepletely vanished, and she quickly stood up by herself.
"Are you alright, Little Xue? If you feel sick, we cane back tomorrow or a few dayster, after you feel better." Teacher Li Wei asked full of worry.
"Tsk... Brother Li Wei! Please open your eyes clearly! She is clearly only pretending to draw your attention! Don''t get deceived by her trick!" Zi Yan said with a tone full of mockery and disdain, but her expression was cold, and she stared at Teacher Li Wei with disappointment.
Teacher Li Wei turned around with an angry expression and wanted to reprimand Zi Yan back harshly, but Tang Li Xue quickly stopped him from doing so.
"Sorry, Teacher Li Wei, but I am alright. I will continue the exam now." Tang Li Xue reassured Teacher Li Wei.
Tang Li Xue sat back on her seat and took the golden [Inscription Pen] back into her grasp.
''What a close call! I should raise this Spirit stat more carefully next time! The side effect is much worse than thest time too! Is it because I must raise it bit by bit, maybe I must take a break like a week or more before raising it again, or maybe the higher the value the more pain I will receive? Sigh... That is not important for now, so let''s forget it and focus on what I must do now!'' Tang Li Xue shook her head and started to inscribe the nk talisman in front of her again.
Ding!
[Host sessfully inscribed the Talisman of Regeneration +3!]
[Inscriptionist''s proficiency has increased!]
[Inscriptionist''s proficiency has leveled up to level 10 (Beginner)!]
Tang Li Xue: ''???!!!''
''What the hell! Talisman with the +3 effect?! [Talisman of Regeneration +3]?!'' Tang Li Xue waspletely stunned silly in disbelief, and she kept staring at the talisman in front of her.
This was the first time for Tang Li Xue to sessfully created a talisman with the +3 effect!
Tang Li Xue impatiently activated her basic [All Knowing Eyes] and checked all of the [Talisman of Regeneration +3] effect!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Regeneration +3]
[Effect: Activated Regeneration skill. (Heal 1% of maximum HP every 5 seconds for 180 seconds.)]
[+1 Effect: Heal +0.5% of maximum HP every 5 seconds. Duration +60 seconds.]
[+2 Effect: Heal +1% of maximum HP every 5 seconds. Duration +120 seconds.]
[+3 Effect: Heal +1.5% of maximum HP every 5 seconds. Duration +180 seconds.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
''Oh My Gawd! This talisman is super OP!'' Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock.
Chapter 181 - 181: Tang Li Xues Request!
Chapter 181 - 181: Tang Li Xue''s Request!
It means this [Talisman of Regeneration +3] heal 4% of maximum HP every 5 seconds for 540 seconds!
In the other words, this [Talisman of Regeneration +3] will heal 432% of maximum HP in 540 seconds!
Tang Li Xue started to hesitate if she should give this super precious talisman to get checked by the examiner, or maybe she should just inscribe a new one and save this one for herself.
''What if that staff take this [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from me? I will probably cry a bucket of tears if that really happens! Okay, let''s inscribe a new one, and I will stealthily keep this one for myself!'' Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips and took another nk talisman from the stack while secretly kept the [Talisman of Regeneration +3] under her sleeve.
But how could what she did escape from the supervision of two Master Rank Inscriptionist like Zi Yan and Teacher Li Wei?!
"Wait! What are you hiding under your sleeve just then?! Show it to me!" Zi Yan shouted to Tang Li Xue with an unpleasant tone.
Tang Li Xue''s face grimaced a bit under her mask, and she looked at Teacher Li Wei with pleading eyes.
Teacher Li Wei approached Tang Li Xue and said something reassuring to her: "It''s okay! I see what happen clearly before. You are not cheating but only secretly tuck away a talisman you make under your sleeve. You don''t need to worry about the bad quality. Even if you make the worst quality Rank 1 Talisman, you will still qualify to join Inscriptionist Association as Beginner Inscriptionist."
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes at Teacher Li Wei and grumbled in her heart: ''Duh! Who the hell will care about the worst quality talisman?! I hide it obviously because my talisman is too amazing for you all to see!''
However, she still has no choice other than giving the [Talisman of Regeneration +3] under her sleeve to Teacher Li Wei since, among all people here, she believed in Teacher Li Wei the most.
Teacher Li Wei almostughed out loud when he saw Tang Li Xue gave the talisman under her sleeve full of hesitation to him, and she kept staring at him with intense unwillingness in her eyes.
But Teacher Li Wei''s smiling expression immediately changed into an extremely shocked expression as he shouted: "Enhanced Talisman! It even Rank-2 Talisman!"
''Enhanced Talisman? Rank 2 Talisman? What is this rank anyway? In the knowledge I got from the system, all of those runes are the same, only in the basic grade. It seems the grade and rank in my system are different from this Immortal World again like the grading system of the beast.'' Tang Li Xue thought silently.
"Impossible! How can it be?! You must be cheating! You must have reced your talisman with this one secretly, right?! Check her sleeves carefully! I am sure there will be another talisman!" Zi Yan shouted hysterically in disbelief.
Teacher Li Wei frowned, and he nced at the female staff. He did not want Tang Li Xue to get used by Zi Yan, so he will let the female staff checked Tang Li Xue''s sleeve to clear her name.
"There is no need for that. Just give me back my talisman, and I will inscribe a new one!" Tang Li Xue raised her suggestion while her hand wanted to take back her [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from Teacher Li Wei''s grasp.
"Nope! You can''t!" Teacher Li Wei immediately withdrew the hand which held Tang Li Xue''s talisman before Tang Li Xue could grab it.
Tang Li Xue stared at Teacher Li Wei resentfully, but she had no other choice other than letting the female staff inspected both of her empty sleeves.
After a few minutes, the female staff finally confirmed that Tang Li Xue did not cheat since she did not find anything, and the talisman in Teacher Li Wei''s hand was truly inscribed by Tang Li Xue.
Not long after that, Bing Shui also seeded in inscribing a talisman after failed for seven times, but the quality was only average at best and far from what Tang Li Xue had made.
The female staff recorded Tang Li Xue and Bing Shui as Beginner Inscriptionist, but their rank was different from one another.
Bing Shui''s rank was only at Rank 1 Beginner Inscriptionist, while Tang Li Xue was directly promoted to Rank 2 Beginner Inscriptionist.
Zi Yan could only gnash her teeth in anger and hatred, but nothing she could do now since Inscriptionist Association did not belong to her, and it has its own set of rules.
Teacher Li Wei frowned a bit while kept reying Tang Li Xue''s posture when she inscribed her Enhanced Talisman.
Zi Yan was blinded by her hatred, anger, and jealously so she did not pay any attention to Tang Li Xue at that time because she felt disdain toward Tang Li Xue and felt Tang Li Xue did not worth for her attention.
Unlike Zi Yan, Teacher Li Wei was an objective person... err... fox. Moreover, he was one of Tang Li Xue''s teachers in the Education Department, so he felt he must give Tang Li Xue some pointerster so she could fix itter and became a better Inscriptionist.
Teacher Li Wei already carefully observed Tang Li Xue''s every movement from her body posture, hand movement, the way she held the Inscription Pen, until the way she used her spirit energies to inscribe the rune on the nk talisman.
Honestly, everything she did was so awful. Teacher Li Wei even started to suspect if Tang Li Xue never had any experience in inscribing a talisman before today.
Teacher Li Wei even dared to bet all of his money that Tang Li Xue will fail one hundred times in one hundred tries!
However, she seeded in inscribing one! And it was an Enhanced Talisman on the top of that, which even the Master Rank Inscriptionist like himself and Zi Yan have a small chance of sess in inscribing it!
''It is as if the Inscription Pen in her grasp is guiding her hand and writing the rune on the nk talisman by itself...'' Teacher Li Wei mumbled in his mind, but he immediatelyughed at himself while kept shaking his head. He felt his IQ keep decreasing after he met with this girl.
After finished with their business, Tang Li Xue and Teacher Li Wei went out of Inscriptionist Association together while Zi Yan could only stare at them full of envy and jealousy from behind.
.....
Teacher Li Wei walked several meters in front of Tang Li Xue, while Tang Li Xue kept following him until a few kilometers away from Inscriptionist Association.
Teacher Li Wei frowned as he turned around and asked Tang Li Xue: "Why are you kept following me? You can go back to your ce."
Tang Li Xue giggled softly from behind her mask but there was a hint of anger shone in the deepest part of her topaz blue eyes and said: "Teacher Li, is this how you always use your student? Kicked them away after you use them?"
Teacher Li Wei fell silent for a moment and asked in an oblivious manner: "Oh? What do you mean?"
"Teacher Li, do you think I am that stupid? I am not a naive little girl who will think something brainless like my teacher fell in love with me at the first sight, so he helped me to get my heart. You used me as your shield to keep that jealous woman away from you, right?" Tang Li Xue stopped giggling and asked with a cold tone.
"Oh, really? Continue... I want to hear since when you realized it?" Teacher Li Wei chuckled and asked Tang Li Xue in curiosity.
"Of course, since the very first time when you approached me from behind on the Inscriptionist Association''s entrance. Teacher Li should already realize that jealous woman is already waiting for you inside the Inscriptionist Association before entering, and when you saw me for the first time, you already nned to use me as your shield to keep that woman away from you." Tang Li Xue calmly exined her deduction.
Actually, Tang Li Xue had lied to Teacher Li Wei. She only realized all of these after she raised her Spirit stat value to 250 in the Exam Room before she inscribed her [Talisman of Regeneration +3].
When she raised her Spirit stat at that time, she felt some fog in her mind has been cleared out, and she realized many things which she did not realize before.
"Interesting! But everything has already happened, and it''s toote to regret it now. Or you really want me to be your real mate?" Teacher Li Weiughed while asked in a teasing tone.
Tang Li Xue did not answer Teacher Li Wei''s question. She only stared at him as with clear contempt inside her eyes.
"Cough, cough, Okay. Since you are wearing a mask, are your face got disfigured? As you know, I have the healing-type divine ability. I am pretty sure I can cure it for you aspensation. Even if your face is not disfigured but ugly, I can modify it and make it more beautiful." Teacher Li Wei coughed in embarrassment and asked in a polite and serious manner this time.
''Modify? What kind of power is that? Is it truly the healing-type divine ability? Isn''t it a bit strange? It sounds like stic Surgery!'' Tang Li Xue thought for a moment in surprise before shaking her head to refuse Teacher Li Wei''s offer.
"I see... so you are the same as me. Alright, you can say what you want to me! Of course, I will consider it first if I will really fulfill it or notter." Teacher Li Weiughed while waved his hand, signaled Tang Li Xue to say what she wanted from him.
"Okay! First, give me back my talisman!" Tang Li Xue stretched out her hand toward Teacher Li Wei.
"Denied! Ask for something else!" Teacher Li Wei shook his head in an instant.
Tang Li Xue stomped her feet in anger and dissatisfaction. She wanted to punch this Teacher Li Wei''s smug face so badly.
Teacher Li Weiughed again and felt the way this student''s act was very cute.
No one knows, but this Teacher Li Wei was actually a very cold person inside despite his voice seemed so gentle and kind, but Tang Li Xue still managed to make himugh so many times today.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her raging emotion, and she said to Teacher Li Wei: "I want to ask you to be my Inscription Teacher from now on! If you still cannot fulfill this, then forget it. It''s not like I can force you to do it. But I will keep remember you as the most shameless and vulgar teacher in the entire Education Department from now on!"
"Alright, I agree! I will wait for you tomorrow at the Education building''s entrance after your ss is over!" Teacher Li Wei agreed immediately and turned around without waiting for Tang Li Xue''s reaction.
Tang Li Xue still stood there dumbfoundedly in shock and disbelief after she heard Teacher Li Wei''s agreement.
She thought Teacher Li Wei will argue with her at first and set the time limit such as he will only agree to teach her once a week in only one month. Who knows he agreed with her request so quickly.
Teacher Li Wei was a renowned Master Rank Inscriptionist after all, and he must be extremely busy every day, so Tang Li Xue will understand if he only taught her for a short time.
Tang Li Xue went back to the residential building while kept skipping happily in excitement. She could barely wait for tomorrow.
After she entered the residential building, Tang Li Xue summoned out Yaya back from her system storage.
Tang Li Xue was afraid, Yaya will angrily attack the armed guards on the entrance when they did not let Tang Li Xue entered before, so she silently stored Yaya into her system back then.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue stored Yaya before they met with the jealous girl, Zi Yan or Tang Li Xue would never be able to imagine what kind of bloody scene will happen!
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and brought Yaya to the luxurious restaurant on the first floor of the residential building.
After eating many delicious foods until full, Yaya immediately forgot about all of her grievances. She hugged Tang Li Xue and identally fell asleep in Tang Li Xue''s soft embrace.
Tang Li Xue went back to her room and put the sleeping Yaya on her bed, but Tang Li Xue herself did not sleep.
She activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue took out the golden [Inscription Pen] from her system inventory and gave it to her perfect copy.
She told her perfect copy to keep inscribing some talismans while she did her daily routine of practicing her [Art of Concealment] and cultivation.
Chapter 182 - 182: Another Challenge from Executor Class students!
Chapter 182 - 182: Another Challenge from Executor ss students!
Tang Li Xue cultivated until midnight before fell asleep on the bed beside Yaya.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy pulled all-nighters to inscribe several [Talismans of Regeneration] until shepletely exhausted and identally fell asleep.
When Yaya woke Tang Li Xue up in the next morning, Tang Li Xue jumped up in surprise since her perfect copy could actually inscribe the talisman for more than sixty tries and even managed to create sixteen [Talismans of Regeneration +1] and three [Talismans of Regeneration +2] before she copsed this dawn.
Tang Li Xue turned off her [Twin Moons] divine ability and her perfect copypletely vanished into thin air but she could still felt that her perfect copy was still so exhausted.
''Hmm... So I cannot just re-summon it to replenish its stamina. This perfect copy is just like another me, it also needs to rest or sleep for a few hours after it exhausted, but at least, it doesn''t need to eat or drink anything.'' Tang Li Xue nodded her head in realization.
Tang Li Xue took all of the [Talismans of Regeneration] on the table and stuffed it into her space pouch before she took a bath with Yaya.
Tang Li Xue met with Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others who already waited for her outside her room, and they headed to the Education building together as usual.
They talked about what mixed ss they will attend today on their way and Li Jing, with her usual sharp wits, immediately told them about it.
Tang Li Xue immediately lost her interest after hearing that they will learn about human weapons along with their advantage and disadvantage such as sword, spear, bow, etc.
But after Tang Li Xue and the others arrived at the Education building''s entrance, they were obstructed by another team from Executor ss students.
Tang Li Xue and the others knew this team very well.
They were actually Instructor Zhiruo''s students!
The foxes who participated in the trial with them before they entered the Myriad Foxes Academy!
The two-tailed orange fox with me-type divine ability, the two-tailed brown fox with earth-type divine ability, and the two-tailed grey fox with muscles and bones changing divine ability.
They also have one more team but Tang Li Xue and the others did not recognize them.
"Tsk, blocking our way like this. Quickly, tell us what do you want?! We have a ss this morning, and we don''t want to bete because of all of you!" Bing Yi asked them all with a cold tone.
"We heard that you all challenged the entire Executor ss students yesterday. So how can we miss this exciting event? We also want to join the fun and try to test how strong you all are." The orange-haired little girl said to Tang Li Xue''s team with a smug face.
The other five teammates nodded their heads in unison.
"All right, we ept your challenge, but do you have 5,000 credits in your card?" Tang Li Xue asked doubtfully.
"We will bet 10,000 credits, but our fighting format will be six versus six! How about it? All of the students in your ss against all of the students in my ss! Like everyone said: the merrier the better, right?" The orange-haired little girl snickered with a glint of craftiness in her orange eyes.
Tang Li Xue felt her sense was getting sharper after she increased her Spirit stat yesterday. It was not her five senses but her ability to sense and judge everyone''s intention just like now.
Tang Li Xue could clearly feel that all of Instructor Zhiruo''s students should have some ns or schemes which made them extremely confident to win against Tang Li Xue''s ss.
Tang Li Xue and the others did not have any reason to refuse their challenge, and Tang Li Xue herself also very curious about what Instructor Zhiruo''s students will doter, so they agreed to ept the challenge from Instructor Zhiruo''s students almost immediately, and they will meet again at the second floor after the ss was over.
Tang Li Xue and the others bid their farewell with Instructor Zhiruo''s students and entered their ss in hurry.
Fortunately, all the Executor ss students in today''s mixed ss were well behaved and did not make any ruckus to challenge Tang Li Xue like the previous days.
However, Tang Li Xue still could feel their unpleasant angry stares locked at her group. Tang Li Xue did not mind them at all.
In this Immortal World, strength always determined everything.
So what if a woman has extreme beauty that surpassed everything? It will only bring cmity to her, and she will still be fated to be a toy for the stronger people to vent their l.u.s.t and vanity.
Look at all of these Executor ss students, they all believed Tang Li Xue has a very ugly face but were they dare to offend her now after she almost killed several of Sophomore rank students from their Executor ss yesterday? What could they do except staring at her with that eyes full of resentment?
Tang Li Xue sneered coldly at them behind her fox mask. She felt this feeling to be the one feared by the others was so addicting. Now she knew why Instructor Mei Lan made the others feared her so badly.
''Oh no, this is bad! I cannot let myself get infected by Instructor Lan''s sadistic tendency!'' Tang Li Xue shook her head to clear her mind.
Not long after Tang Li Xue and the others arrived at their mixed ssroom, today''s mixed ss teacher also entered the ssroom.
After attending several mixed sses in these few days, Tang Li Xue already knew that every teacher in Myriad Foxes Academy have their own unique strength and each one of them could not be underestimated.
But she really wanted to look down at today''s mixed ss teacher so much.
Today''s teacher was also a male, but he was vastly different from elegant Teacher Li Wei from yesterday, his appearance was so messy from his hair to the clothes he wore.
He walked into the mixed ssroom in an unsteady manner as if he was still in the drunk state and the unbearable pungent smell of wine filled the entire ssroom when he stepped in.
Almost all students in the ss could not stand the pungent smell of wine and pinched their noses in disgust since all the foxes have a very sharp sense of smell.
Tang Li Xue also frowned and wanted to cover her nose, but the considerate Yaya already set [Wind Barrier] around the two of them to prevent the pungent smell of wine wafted toward them.
Tang Li Xue smiled at Yaya and patted Yaya''s head gently. There was no need to say ''thank you'' between them since they were a family of two after all.
Yaya closed her emerald green eyesfortably while enjoying the warmness of Tang Li Xue''s palm.
"Hic... Bai Wuchen, your teacher today..." Bai Wuchen took out a wine gourd from his space pouch and took a few gulps after telling everyone''s his name.
"What are we going to do again today? Hic..." Bai Wuchen asked while scratched his messy hair and made them even messier than before.
"Teacher Bai, our lesson''s topic today is about human weapons." The neat-looking student which sat on the front seat answered Teacher Bai Wuchen''s question.
"Oh... Hic... so we all will learn about human weapons... Hic... No, I mean so I will teach you all about human weapons..." Teacher Bai Wuchen took a few sips of wine from his wine gourd again.
The image of Teacher Bai Wuchen in every student''s eyes in this mixed ssroom kept deteriorating every minute, and they started to look at him full of scorn.
Moreover, they could not sense any pressure or powerful aura from Teacher Bai Wuchen''s body like from the other teachers, as if he was a normal human drunkard.
Every student in the ssroom could not sense it, even Tang Li Xue also could not sense anything strange at all, but her soul which already strengthened by Spirit stat felt something off from this Teacher Bai Wuchen.
It was as if when her soul tried to perceive at the Teacher Bai Wuchen''s true strength, something so powerful repelled her, and it even staring back at her.
Her soul felt like a naughty rabbit that tried to enter the dragon''s cave only to be stared at by the powerful dragon.
Tang Li Xue''s cold sweat damped her clothes. When she took a peek at the Teacher Bai Wuchen, he already stared at her with an unnoticeable smile on his face.
Tang Li Xue panicked a bit for a moment, but luckily, Teacher Bai Wuchen stopped staring at Tang Li Xue and took a big gulp at his wine gourd.
"All right... Hic... Like what you already knew... Hic... Different from us the beasts which always used our body part to fight like our fangs or ws, humans always fight using weapons... Hic..." Teacher Bai Wuchen kept hupping while exined about his lesson, but his slurring voice made it hard for all the students to understand what he talked about.
"Hic... There is the proverb in our Beast Race saying: Human Race has their weapons and martial arts while Beast Race has their Divine Abilities. Hic... It means Human Race could use the 100 variety of weapons and 100 kinds of different martial arts to handle 100 different situations but us, the Beast Race only need to use 1 divine ability to handle 100 different situations... Hic..." Teacher Bai Wuchen continued to exin without caring if all the students in the ssroom understand his words or not.
"This is our advantage and also our disadvantagepared to the Human Race... Hic... They only need to choose an appropriate weapon and martial art to handle a certain situation... Hic... but we Beast Race must learn how to use our Divine Ability properly in all kinds of different situations."?Teacher Bai Wuchen finally stopped talking and gulped down the wine in his wine gourd again.
All the students in the ssroom could only grit their teeth in anger and dissatisfaction while kept staring at the Teacher Bai Wuchen full of mockery. They could not even understand what Teacher Bai Wuchen talking about clearly because of his slurring hoarse voice and his constant hups.
"Now I will teach you all... Hic... how to deal with several of the Human Race''s general weapons... Hic... But I am afraid you all will not understand what I am talking about... Hic... so you all can choose between field practice or exnation by words? Hic..." Teacher Bai Wuchen asked all the students in the ssroom, but his slurring hoarse voice somehow became a bit clearer.
"What we can choose?! Of course, we choose field practice!" One of the students from Executor ss shouted in excitement.
"I also choose field practice! Let''s go and beat this teacher up!" Even the yellow thieving fox, Huang Hao also shouted while jumping around in excitement.
Almost all the students in the ss have the same opinion and choose field practice.
Only people who did not like violence like Li Jing, a gentleman like Hei Yinghao who did not like to gang up against one person, the shy and timid: Gan Aomiao, and the cold and uncaring: Bing Yi who did not join the others and remain silent.
Tang Li Xue''s lips already twitched violently. With her sharp perception, she could already faintly sense that this Teacher Bai Wuchen was baiting all of them to choose field practice!
Tang Li Xue already deduced that this Teacher Bai Wuchen was the same type as her Instructor Mei Lan.
An extremely sadistic to the core!
She could already imagine what kind of bloodbath will happenter in her mind so she timidly asked: "Uh... can... can I not join field practice and choose exnation by words?"
Teacher Bai Wuchen ignored Tang Li Xue''s question and concluded: "Hic... so you all choose field practice, right?"
"YEEEESSSSS~~!!!" Almost all the students in the ssroom answered in unison.
Teacher Bai Wuchen took out his space pouch and poured out countless weapons like daggers, spears, swords, sabers, bows, etc.
CLAAAANG~~!!! CLAAAANG~~!!! CLAAAANG~~!!!
"Hic... Each of you can take one of these and attack me..." Teacher Bai Wuchen said leisurely and took a few big gulps of wine from his wine gourd.
Chapter 183 - 183: Divine Abilities Set!
Chapter 183 - 183: Divine Abilities Set!
Teacher Bai Wuchen poured out hundreds of human weapons in front of the ssroom until it was enough to form a small hill. All of the hot-blooded students in the mixed ss immediately rushed to pick the weapon they prefer in excitement.
"Hic... You can attack me after you pick your weapon... Hic... But remember, you are not allowed to use your divine ability... Hic... I am teaching you about the Human Race''s weapons after all... Hic... Not about your divine ability..." Teacher Bai Wuchen exined in his unclear slurred hoarse voice again.
"Why we can''t use our divine abilities, Teacher Bai? Are you scared that we will beat you more badly if we use our divine abilities? Hahahaha! You are really a disgrace among all the teachers in the Education Department. You should just quit being a teacher and drink your wine every day at the pub." One of the male ck-robed studentsughed mockingly at Teacher Bai Wuchen.
''Why the hell all of the Elite ss Students are so arrogant and brainless?! Sigh... Can''t they act more humble for their own good? This teacher already did everything he wants, and no other teachers dared to warn or scold him, it already showed something was not right with this teacher. I am 100 percent sure, something bad will certainly happen to this Elite Student soon!'' Tang Li Xue thought while shaking her head in disappointment.
Tang Li Xue even realized that there was some trace of blood on these several hundreds of weapons. Tang Li Xue guessed that Teacher Bai Wuchen definitely picked all of these weapons after he killed all of its human users.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had predicted before, the male ck-robed student suddenlyughed out loud like a lunatic, and his face flushed with crimson red color like blood.
The male ck-robed student walked unsteadily, and he also started to puke out several times.
The other students immediately ran away to keep their distance with this male ck-robed student.
''Eh? What happens to him? Is he... drunk?'' Tang Li Xue frowned while observing all of the male ck-robed student''s movements carefully.
After emptying his stomach, the male ck-robed student started to feel stiflingly hot, and he did something inconceivable.
He was actually stripping his clothes one by one until he waspletely n.a.k.e.d!
Then heughed out loud like a lunatic again before he started to dash out from the ssroom while still in his birthday suit and sprinting around the Education Building.
Tang Li Xue and the other students in the ssroom: "......"
They kept staring at the ck-robed male student in pity until hepletely vanished from their view.
No one dared tough at that ck-robed male student. On contrary, they nced at the Teacher Bai Wuchen with eyes full of fear and horror this time.
"Hic... Hm... Just so you know, my divine ability, the [Drunken Haze] can target many creatures at once... Hic... Even bringing this entire Education Building drunk with me is not a big problem..." Bai Wuchen mumbled in his slurry voice and took a few big gulps of wine from his wine gourd again like usual.
Copy Start!
Name: Drunken Haze
Type: Divine Ability
Copy Completed!
Of course, Tang Li Xue with her usual habit to copy the powerful divine ability will not miss this chance and already activated her [Mirror of the Moon].
Tang Li Xue tried to check what the effect of Teacher Bai Wuchen''s divine ability in curiosity and excitement.
[Drunken Haze]: Force the user to enter the drunken state, the user can inflict the other targets with the drunken state twice more powerful than what the user feels. (If the user is drunker, the effect inflict to others will be more powerful too, the area of effect will also berger.)
''Woah! What a powerful divine ability! But it will also make me drunk? Tsk... Then how could I fight if I entered the drunken state?! This divine ability is useless for me...'' Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment after she read the divine ability''s description.
Moreover, this [Drunken Haze] waspletely unblockable like Teacher Mei Lan''s [Demonic Tune].
Tang Li Xue did not know that even the other instructors from the Education Department were also extremely afraid of this divine ability.
The physical divine ability like [Blood Maniption] was ced in the lower rankpared with elemental type divine ability like Bing Yi''s [Freezing Field].
But the unblockable divine ability like this [Drunken Haze] and Teacher Mei Lan''s [Demonic Tune] was ced in even higher rank than elemental type divine ability.
Tang Li Xue deduced that Teacher Bai Wuchen should have the 2nd powerful divine ability which allowed him to control any creatures in the drunken state. That was why he could make the male Elite ss student stripped all of his clothes and ran around the Education Building.
Just like Teacher Mei Lan with her [Heavenly Sound] and [Demonic Tune], this Teacher Bai Wuchen should also have the 2nd powerful divine ability which can be used in tandem with his [Drunken Haze].
All the beasts will definitely prefer the divine abilities they would get after they evolved into the higher grade rather than what they would get after they ate the miracle fruit or from the inheritance''s pool.
The reason was simple. It was because there was a certain probability that the 2nd divine ability they would get after they evolved would directly empower their 1st divine ability.
In fact, all [Rare] grade beasts or higher should have two or more divine abilities which can be used as one set if they were lucky.
For example, Tang Li Xue''s [Mirror of the Moon] and [Twin Moons] were one set. If Tang Li Xue evolved further into [Rare] gradeter, she would have some probability to get the 3rd divine ability as the part of that set!
Tang Li Xue also realized that all the [Umon] grade foxes she beat until now only got their 1st divine ability.
If they evolved into the [Rare] grade foxester and got their 2nd divine ability as part of the set to empower their 1st divine ability, even Tang Li Xue would certainly have trouble to deal with them.
Tang Li Xue also finally realized the difference between [Normal], [Elite], and [Lord] qualifications were not only about the number of divine abilities they had but actually about this set of divine abilities!
Just like the [Demonic Blood Fox], it only has [Normal] qualification even after it evolved into [Rare] grade demonic beast. It means it only has the 1st divine ability.
While the [Fox Sith], Hei Yinghao definitely has 1st and 2nd divine ability as the part of a set while he was only at the [Umon] grade which was why he had [Lord] qualification.
If Hei Yinghao evolved into [Rare] gradeter and got his 3rd divine ability as the part of a set to empower his 1st and 2nd divine ability, his power will certainly reach an unimaginable stage!
Unfortunately, it was notpletely certain if the beast will really get their 2nd or 3rd divine ability as the part of one set since it waspletely random.
But ording to what Teacher Mei Lan said to them before, it was not random at all, but it was actually ording to the purity of that beast bloodline.
Tang Li Xue felt all of these were make sense since if that beast has two different bloodlines then it means that beast will have the probability to get the divine abilities from two different sets and made it even harder to predict.
Then what about if that beast has four, five, or even more mixed different bloodlines?
This was also the main reason why the family with royal or imperial bloodlines will never let their child or descendant marry the other races or beasts from different bloodlines!
While Tang Li Xue was still in her deep thought, the other students already chose their weapons and took their fighting stance.
There were almost one hundred students in this mixed ssroom today, so Teacher Bai Wuchen will face all of them alone without using any weapons or divine abilities!
Even Tang Li Xue started to worry about Teacher Bai Wuchen''s safety after she woke up from her deep thought.
Tang Li Xue decided to pick a thin two fingers width sword.
All the other students were still hesitating after they saw how powerful Teacher Bai Wuchen''s divine ability was, but one of the female red-robed students already took the initiative and shot an arrow to Teacher Bai Wuchen with the bow in her grasp.
The female red-robed student did not have any killing intent, and she only aimed for Teacher Bai Wuchen''s right shoulder.
Teacher Bai Wuchen easily dodged the arrow with tilting his body a bit to the right.
"Hic... Like you already know... Hic... the bow has a long attack range but it is not hard to dodge it if you pay attention to where the bow aimed at... Hic... Do not try to see where the arrow before trying to dodge it, it''s useless... Hic... See the bow holder''s hands to know where she aimed at..." Teacher Bai Wuchen exined with his slurry voice, and he also walked unsteadily toward the female red-robed student.
The female red-robed student did not panic. She took several arrows and kept shooting at Teacher Bai Wuchen continuously.
But her every arrow only brushed passes Teacher Bai Wuchen which walking unsteadily to the right and left like a drunk person! Wait, it was not ''like'' a drunk person since he was really drunk now...
12 meters...
9 meters...
5 meters...
"Hic... you can also run in a zigzag pattern like this... Hic... to make it more unpredictable or to dodge the arrow..." Teacher Bai Wuchen took a big gulp from his wine gourd after exined.
All the students'' mouth twitched when they heard his exnation.
''Is that really zigzag pattern? Your walking pattern is more like zig-zig-zag-zig-zag-zag-zag pattern rather than zigzag!''
The female red-robed student''s aim was not bad at all. She should have a long ranged-type divine ability that was why she chose bow among all weapons since she could use her best ability when using a bow.
Unfortunately, all of her arrows were easily dodged by Teacher Bai Wuchen.
3 meters...
1 meter...
The female red-robed student gritted her teeth and aimed at Teacher Bai Wuchen''s chest. They were so close now, and the female red-robed student''s arrow was only an inch away from Teacher Bai Wuchen''s chest.
BWOOOOSSSHH~!!!
The female red-robed student released the arrow but Teacher Bai Wuchen''s body unexpectedly moved in a weird manner as if he was tripping over something and the arrow brush passed above his head.
Teacher Bai Wuchen took a few steps forward while his head still bowed down as if he was really tripped and when he straightened his back, his right hand already at the female red-robed student''s fragile neck.
"Hic... the bow is useless once you already within three steps... Hic... But never let your guard down since the bow user can still use their sharp arrow to stab you from close range." Teacher Bai Wuchen continued to exin.
The female red-robed student already scared out of her wits when she felt Teacher Bai Wuchen''s rough hand on her throat.
Tang Li Xue was still stunned in awe. This Teacher Bai Wuchen was clearly heavily drunk, but how could he dodge all of those arrows so precisely like that?!
Moreover, Teacher Bai Wuchen did not pay any attention to the bow user''s hand, bow, or arrow at all, he even gulped the wine from his wine gourd several times while leisurely walked on his way to the female red-robed student!
''Little girl, your [Spirit Perception] is not bad at all! But you are still too green and inexperienced. You should sharpen it more if you want to use it proficiently in battle like me.'' Teacher Bai Wuchen''s voice resounded in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
Chapter 184 - 184: Drunken Battle Style - Formless!
Chapter 184 - 184: Drunken Battle Style - Formless!
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise. She put a quizzical look and thought: ''[Spirit Perception]? What is that?''
Teacher Bai Wuchen released the female red-robed student''s neck and only pped her face in the end, made her fall onto the floor, and rolled several meters away.
Several more students thrust the spears in their hands to Teacher Bai Wuchen, but Teacher Bai Wuchen''s flexible body bent in a tricky angle to dodge all of them.
Teacher Bai Wuchen held all the spears in his armpit, and when the several students tried to pull their spears from him, Teacher Bai Wuchen jumped toward them instead.
Teacher Bai Wuchen grabbed two students'' faces with his palms and mmed the back of their heads onto the ground forcefully.
"Hic... There are many moves in spear such as sweeping, lifting, and many more, but the move you all must wary of is stabbing... Hic...?But you can hold the shaft to prevent it from moving around... Hic..." Teacher Bai Wuchen exined to all students while moved unsteadily to the right and left dodging the iing sword sh from behind him.
''[Spirit Perception] is the ability you get when your soul strengthened to some extent, but not everyone with the strong soul canprehend this [Spirit Perception]. Only a handful of creatures canprehend it.''
''It''s a very mysterious ability which allows one to perceive many things such as the dangers, your opponent''s weakness, the other creature''s character, and many more. Although, you just barely touch upon its gate for now, but it means you are also a chosen one who possessed the [Spirit Perception]. You only need to sharpen it further like me.''
Tang Li Xue waspletely stunned silly and kept staring at Teacher Bai Wuchen as if he was a monster.
Teacher Bai Wuchen currently kept dodging countless sharp weapons'' attacks leisurely while exining the topic about human weapons to all students, but he was also exining about this [Spirit Perception] with his [Telepathy] to Tang Li Xue''s mind.
Basically, Teacher Bai Wuchen was doing three things at once effortlessly, just like how the student tried to solve the math problems, history problems, and geography problems at once.
''Is this also the effect of [Spirit Perception]?'' Tang Li Xue thought doubtfully.
Different from Instructor Mei Lan''s forceful speed-type battle style, the Teacher Bai Wuchen movement was not fast at all. It fact, it was even a bit too slow, but it was very hard to discern.
When you thought he will hit your face and raise your hand to parry it, he will kick your stomach.
When you thought he will hit your chest and cross your hands to defend, he will p your face.
In short, it waspletely unpredictable! Added his unsteady way of moving, all of his movement became even more unfathomable.
While Teacher Bai Wuchen himself kept moving as if he could see all of their movement clearly. All the students even started to doubt if he has countless hidden eyes watching over each of their every movement.
In less than five minutes almost a third of one hundred students lied on the floor while groaning in pain.
Again this was a strange sight!
Beast Race and Human Race has different constitutions. All beasts have tenacious bodies and vitality thanks to the beast cores in their bodies so they should never keep lying down silently on the ground like this.
Normally, they would certainly more than capable to take the beating like this for hundred times and could still stand up again and again.
''The way he moves really feels a bit familiar... Umm... Wait a minute... Is this the drunken fist? Nope, the Drunken Fist is not like this! It seems mixed with Tai Chi and Aiki? But Teacher Bai Wuchen is a fox too so he should never learn any martial arts!'' Tang Li Xue still holding the thin sword in her hand, but she did not attack recklessly like the others.
The more Tang Li Xue observed how Teacher Bai Wuchen moved, the more impressed she would be.
Teacher Bai Wuchenpletely used the enemies'' strength and techniques against themselves.
It was true that all the students in the ss werepletely inexperienced in weapon battle.
But Tang Li Xue believe the result would be even more horrible if they all knew how to use their weapons properly along with some martial arts because Teacher Bai Wuchen''s battle style was especially targeting the experts.
"Teacher Bai, are you using martial art now? What kind of martial art are you using? Where did you learn that?" Tang Li Xue asked with a soft sweet voice with a curious tone.
Of course, Tang Li Xue could copy Teacher Bai Wuchen''s technique with her [Mirror of the Moon] too but it seems Teacher Bai Wuchen''s technique could only be used in drunken state so it waspletely useless for Tang Li Xue.
In fact, Tang Li Xue did not even get it, how could Teacher Bai Wuchen stay sober in such intense drunken state like that!
''What martial art? Martial art is only for the weak creatures like the Human Race! This is the battle style in my bloodline, the Drunken Battle Style - Formless!'' Teacher Bai Wuchen''s voice resounded again in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
''Battle style in the bloodline? So it is the same as my Imperial Moon Dancer!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes brightened in realization.
''I only have [Moon Splitter] in my Imperial Moon Dancer Battle Style right now... Does it mean I must train it more often to get more skills like this Teacher Bai Wuchen? Sigh... so many things for me to do! Learn how to improve my [Spirit Perception], learn about Inscription, train my [Art of Concealment], improve my cultivation, earn more credits to feed the glutton egg, and now I must train my Moon Dancer Battle Style further too!'' Tang Li Xue shook her head.
After Tang Li Xue woke from her daze, all of the students other than her already lied down limply on the cold floor including Li Jing, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the others.
Tang Li Xue told Yaya to stay away from her for now, so Yaya flew toward the corner of the ssroom, but she kept staring at Tang Li Xue with eyes full of worry.
Tang Li Xue also already taught Yaya repeatedly to never do anything rash without asking for her consent, or she will store Yaya back into her system storage like before, so Yaya became more obedient now.
Yaya also became smarter after she evolved further into [Rare] grade, so she also understood now that there were many rules inside this Myriad Foxes Academy, and she will only create more troubles for Tang Li Xue if she did everything rashly like before.
''Little girl, you think too much! That''s not good. It will only make your movement be rigid, and your [Spirit Perception] bes even duller! Empty your mind, be formless... let your body and spirit move freely, don''t try to restrain them! But it doesn''t mean you can''t think anything, you can think about how to use your divine ability more efficiently to defeat your opponent!'' Teacher Bai Wuchen gave Tang Li Xue some pointers with his [Telepathy].
Tang Li Xue and Teacher Bai Wuchen stood face to face right now.
When Teacher Bai Wuchen extended his hand, Tang Li Xue moved his sword almost immediately and stabbed it forward!
Tang Li Xue felt as if she could see Teacher Bai Wuchen next movement for one second ahead!
''This is...?! Prediction? I can predict my opponent''s next attack with this [Spirit Perception]!'' Tang Li Xue''s heart jumped in excitement.
Teacher Bai Wuchen''s dry lips curved upward a bit, then he rotated her wrist and caught Tang Li Xue''s sword between his two fingers!
"Good job, little girl. Don''t forget to keep sharpen it in the future!" Teacher Bai Wuchen mumbled softly, but Tang Li Xue could still hear his words clearly.
Tang Li Xue quickly released the sword in her hand and swiftly defended using both of her hands.
BBAAANGG~~!!!
Tang Li Xue did not even know how she could get hit by Teacher Bai Wuchen. She could only feel the stinging pain on her right neck, and she dropped down powerlessly onto the cold floor like the other students.
Tang Li Xue could faintly predict the opponent''s next movement, but Teacher Bai Wuchen could clearly predict several moves ahead of his opponent. The difference between them was still too far.
[You have been hit by Drunken Strike!]
[You have been paralyzed! Duration: 00:02:59.]
''Holysh*t! What the hell is this Drunken Strike?! So this is the main reason why everyone still lied down on the floor until now!'' Tang Li Xue tried to move her body and talk, but she could only wiggling her body for a bit and groaning.
"Okay... Hic... Today''s lesson is over. Any question, kid?"?Teacher Bai Wuchen asked and drank a few sips of wine from his wine gourd.
But how could anyone ask since everyone still under the paralyzing effect of his [Drunken Strike] now?!
"So no question... Hic... Goodbye, all!" Teacher Bai Wuchen walked unsteadily and exited from the ssroom while all the students in the ssroom still lied down on the cold floor. They all wanted to cry so badly right now but no tears came out. They could only wait for the [Drunken Strike]''s paralyzing effect to wear off.
Tang Li Xue realized that she was the first one to recover from the [Drunken Strike]''s paralyzing effect. Tang Li Xue did not know why, but it was all actually thanks to one of her martial soul''s passive skills, [Recovery Buff].
[Recovery Buff]: Increase overall recovery stats by 50%. (The effect would increase along with the martial soul''s level)
Overall recovery stats did not only refer to something like her HP, stamina, Qi, vitality energy, or spirit energy but also recover from the negative effect such as paralyzed, poisoned, bleeding, fainted, etc.
The paralyzing effect of the [Drunken Strike] on the other students also started to wear off after five minutes or so, but their ck and blue faces still clear to be seen.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya waited for Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others to recover first before all of them immediately heading to the second floor to meet with Instructor Zhiruo''s students.
Unfortunately, Instructor Zhiruo''s students still have their lesson in their ss, so Tang Li Xue and the others need to wait for half an hour before they met with each other.
Why are all your face ck and blue like that? Did you get beaten by someone today? Hei! Hei! Hei! Don''t you all dare to use that as your excuse for losing to uster!" The grey-haired male studentughed while mocking at Tang Li Xue''s team.
"Don''t worry! We will never lose to you all!" Tang Li Xue answered with a firm tone.
"Then we will see the resultter!" The orange-haired petite girl giggled.
They requested for the referee from the second-floor supervisor when they booked the sparring room and asked it to be set for the team battle: six versus six.
They all entered the sparring room and each of their team gave 10,000 credits to the faceless referee.
Do not think that 5,000 credits or 10,000 credits were the small amounts since all the students dare to bet with that amount! It was actually a really huge amount of credits!
They dared to bet that amount because they obviously have extreme confidence to win!
No one dared to challenge Tang Li Xue''s team anymore after yesterday, because they did not have full confidence to win against Tang Li Xue''s team after she defeated two Sophomore Students'' teams in session, and they were afraid that they will lose 5,000 credits for nothing!
In fact, Tang Li Xue did not hold any confidence in Li Jing''s team since they never fought against the other team together like this before so who knows if their teamwork will be good or bad, but she has extreme confidence in herself!
"Who will choose the arena? Your team or my team?" the orange-haired petite girl asked with a smug face.
"You can choose what you like." Tang Li Xue said leisurely.
Actually, since Zhiruo''s students were the challenger, Tang Li Xue''s team should be the one to choose the arena, but she wanted to see what her opponent''s up to, so she let them choose it.
"Sparring Room Number 2779, choosing arena: Foggy Forest." The orange-haired petite girl sneered craftily and said with her childish voice.
Chapter 185 - 185: Perfect Teamwork!
Chapter 185 - 185: Perfect Teamwork!
"Yaya, be good and wait for me outside the arena. I promise I will buy you some delicious snackster." Tang Li Xue said and pushed Yaya away from the arena gently.
Yaya could only puff her cheek and pouted a bit. She also really wanted to fight and test her new divine abilities too just like Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue kept preventing her from joining the fight.
However, Yaya also understood that she could not join the fight among the students, so she could only want patiently on the corner of the room.
''Good Yaya, please be patient and wait for Instructor Lan toe back first, okay? I will ask Instructor Lan about how to let you fight or train your abilitiester.'' Tang Li Xue promised to Yaya using their mind connection.
While Tang Li Xue still trying tofort Yaya, their surrounding scene already distorted and the scene around them changed into the fogged forest.
The thick white fog blocked their vision made them hard to look at what was in front of them. They could only see some vague shadow of trees.
This scene was identical to the fogged forest where their trial was being held before.
"Ready!" The faceless referee''s hoarse sound echoed through the entire fogged forest.
"BEGIN!"
"n A Start!" The petite orange-haired girl shouted to her team.
Tang Li Xue''s team raised their vignce and put their battle stance, while Tang Li Xue herself activated her [Ethereal Form] and vanished into thin air.
However, the ce where Tang Li Xue stood immediately covered by the high-temperature orange me from all directions.
''So they intend to take me down first?! Interesting!'' Tang Li Xue did not have any fear. On contrary, she only felt more excited.
"Watch out! They are all aiming at our Little Xue! Help Little Xue defend from their attacks!" Li Jing shouted at them.
"No need! Just focus on dealing with them! Try to take one or two of them out!" Tang Li Xue rejected Li Jing''s idea.
It was not because she was overconfident but because she has 100% confidence to defend against their attacks!
Any physical attacks or earth-elemental attacks werepletely useless, while Tang Li Xue was still in her [Ethereal Form]. Her fire elemental resistance was also extremely high that these orange mes could only deal some superficial damages to her even when she was still in her [Ethereal Form].
But it was enough to force Tang Li Xue''s out from her [Ethereal Form]!
(Tang Li Xue received double damage from any elemental attack when she was in [Ethereal form] and it will also automatically cancel her [Ethereal form]. But only ethereal elemental attack such as me, lightning, wind, and ice could hit her while physical elemental attack like water and earth still could not touch her.)
The orange me did not even weaken in the slightest, but countless sharp earth spikes already tried to stab her from below!
Tang Li Xue immediately used the [Moon Splitter] skill from her Imperial Moon Dancer battle style.
She crossed both of her hands and swung it forcefully!
Tang Li Xue executed the cross chop with both of her palms, and shooting out two sharp silver light shes like two silver crescent-moons and sliced all the sharp earth spikes neatly!
In front of Tang Li Xue''s eyes, Bing Yi, Li Jing, and the others tried to kill her with their respective divine abilities as if they were controlled by the enemies!
''Illusion? So he tried to make me fall into his illusion before finishing me in one sweep! Not a bad n! But unfortunately, I am immune to any illusion as long as I have this [Huang Family Heirloom Ring]!'' Tang Li Xueughed at their failed n.
[Effect 1: Illusion Immunity (The wearer can feel it when they fall under the illusion effect and they can break out from it anytime they want)]
[Huang Family Heirloom Ring] kept shining with dim azure light on Tang Li Xue''s chest. Tang Li Xue always wore this ring and her space pouch on her neck.
"Bad news! It seems my illusion doesn''t work on her! She can still see everything!" One of Tang Li Xue''s opponents shouted to his team after he felt that Tang Li Xue broke out from his illusion effortlessly.
"Sigh... Looks like we have no other choice! Switch to n B now!" the petite orange-haired girl shouted again but her tone contained some regret now.
''Oh? There is even n B? Tsk, Tsk, Tsk... So this is how to fight in the team! They should already analyze how my team moves from our previous match with the other teams and concluded that I am the core of the team. So theye up with several ns to finish me first before the others!'' Tang Li Xue nodded her head in admiration.
However, admiration was different from submission! Tang Li Xue would never give up on defeating them just because she admired their teamwork.
Tang Li Xue used her [Blink] skill and her slender figure shed toward the petite orange-haired girl!
The thick white fog did not hinder Tang Li Xue to detect the location of the petite orange-haired girl with her sharp senses!
But who knows the petite orange-haired girl already used her orange me explosion to propelling her petite body forward and approached Tang Li Xue with lightning speed!
"What are you..." Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and asked with a surprised tone but before she could finish her words, the petite orange-haired girl already hugged her body so tightly.
The crystal blue barrier encased Tang Li Xue and the petite orange-haired girl as if they were locked up in the big crystal blue box.
"I caught you~~!!!" The petite orange-haired girl giggled mischievously while her petite body burst out with fierce orange mes!
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM~~!!!
No one in Tang Li Xue''s team, including Tang Li Xue herself, could predict that the petite orange-haired girl would self-destruct herself to bring down Tang Li Xue with her!
This explosion was extremely devastating that it was more than enough to take down even someone from [Rare] grade beast!
Even though it was not enough to kill Tang Li Xue if she activated her [Golden Body], but she would still certainly fall into aa for one or two hours if that tremendous explosion managed to hit her.
Yes... if it managed to hit her!
But unfortunately for the petite orange-haired girl, Tang Li Xue used the equipment skill from her [Shadow Striders] at thest moment to slip out from the orange-haired girl''s grasp and the crystal blue box''s entrapment.
Equipment Skill: Shadow sh (Teleport to any shadow up to 100 meters away in an instant. Cooldown: 10 minutes.)
Tang Li Xue used the [Shadow sh] and teleported to the shadow under the nearby tree.
''Phew... what a close call?! Is this crazy little girl really nning to die with me or something?! What a reckless n! I wonder if that little girl is still alive now?! I will feel bad if she died just like that...'' Tang Li Xue wiped the cold sweat on her forehead and grumbled in her heart.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal form] again to stealthy check the orange-haired girl''s current condition.
She found out that was a thinyer of the barrier which protected the orange-haired girl''s burned body.
This petite orange-haired girl should be nning to win the 10,000 credits from Tang Li Xue''s team so she could pay 1,000 credits to heal herself at the medical wardter.
Now Tang Li Xue was starting to feel really bad... since if she wonter, did it mean this petite orange-haired girl would not have any more credits to even pay for her own healing fee?
''Sigh... So her sacrifice will be futile because of me? My condolence to you, little one!'' Tang Li Xue sighed in sadness, but she still nned to win anyway because she was also in dire need of credits right now.
The petite orange-haired girl''s team did not have any leisure time to check the orange-haired girl or Tang Li Xue''s current condition since they still locked in the fierce battle with Tang Li Xue''s teammates, so they could only assume that Tang Li Xue already passed out with the orange-haired girl.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability too and summoned her perfect copy out.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also activated her [Ethereal Form] and her slender figure turned transparent just like the real Tang Li Xue.
Both Tang Li Xue stared at each other for a few moments and both of them sneered mischievously before ran in different directions.
Different from Tang Li Xue''s team which focused on individual strength, all of Zhiruo''s students were really good at team battle, and they took down Tang Li Xue''s people one by one together so efficiently while trapped all of them in illusion!
So far, they already took Gan Aomiao and Li Jing down!
Huang Hao used the [Shadow Clone] divine ability, and his figure split into ten! All of them also ran into different directions, make Zhiruo''s students confused about which one they should aim first.
Bing Yi kept activating her [Freezing Field], and no one dared to enter her freezing domain, for now, so they decided to wait until she exhausted herself before knocking her outter.
In the end, they decided to aim for thest one, Hei Yinghao!
Unfortunately, Hei Yinghao was also not an easy target to chew!
He has a lightning-fast reflex and high sensitivity to danger!
Every time they tried to ambush Hei Yinghao, he could easily get away and even counterattacked!
Zhiruo''s students were very sure that Hei Yinghao still trapped in the illusion, so how could he dodge their sneak attacks as if he already broke out from the illusion?!
This thingpletely baffled them, but they have no other choice other than ganging up on him, again and again, to take him down as fast as possible!
Everyone even the hero surely has a weakness... and what was Hei Yinghao''s weakness? Of course, his passion for Tang Li Xue!
Zhiruo''s students already collected all information about Tang Li Xue''s team yesterday so they also know about this.
This time, they even tried to use this to bring down Hei Yinghao!
"Hei Yinghao, Help me! I... I can''t take it anymore! They are too strong! Help!" Tang Li Xue''s sweet voice drifted into Hei Yinghao''s ear, but this time it sounded a bit hoarse.
However, even her current sweet luscious voice was enough to even melt the coldest person''s heart.
"Little Xue! Wait for me! I will help you now!" Hei Yinghao shouted back with an anxious tone.
''Tsk... Who the hell dares to use my voice?! But this is quite interesting as well! Let''s see if that silly fox will fall to this trick!'' Tang Li Xue giggled behind her fox mask and approached at the direction where the sound came from.
Chapter 186 - 186: The True Power of [Shadow Clone]!
Chapter 186 - 186: The True Power of [Shadow Clone]!
Hei Yinghao dashed as fast as he could towards the direction of the sound with an expression full of worry.
When the fog in front of Hei Yinghao''s eyes cleared up slightly, he managed to see Tang Li Xue''s silhouette weakly kneel on the grassy ground while holding her bloody stomach.
"Xue!" Hei Yinghao shouted anxiously as his figure shed toward Tang Li Xue''s side.
Hei Yinghao crouched down to check on Tang Li Xue''s wound, but a male red-robed student jumped out from behind Hei Yinghao and swung his sharp ws down targeting Hei Yinghao''s spine.
Hei Yinghao stepped aside and easily dodged the male red-robed student''s sneak attack, but the male red-robed student immediately activated his stealth-type divine ability and turned invisible again before Hei Yinghao could counterattack him.
"Xue, don''t worry! I will protect you!" Hei Yinghao whispered softly and stood in front of Tang Li Xue full of vignce to protect her from any sneak attack.
Tang Li Xue''s lips slowly curved upward behind her fox mask formed a chilling cold smile as she stepped closer and closer to Hei Yinghao from behind.
But who knows that Hei Yinghao would suddenly turn around and swiftly put his palm on Tang Li Xue''s chest.
"Hei Yinghao, what are you..." Tang Li Xue tried to ask in confusion, but before she could finish her words, Hei Yinghao already interrupted her words halfway.
"Xue never call me by my full name." Hei Yinghao said with a cold and unfeeling tone.
BBBAAAAAANGGGG~~!!!
Hei Yinghao shot out the [Destruction Force] from his palm and blew away the fake Tang Li Xue''s body for several tens of meters!
Hei Yinghao''s [Destruction Force] was truly powerful, and it was surely more than enough to destroy the fake Tang Li Xue''s body if he did not hold most of his strength back.
No one noticed, but the real Tang Li Xue actually stood near them and ready to help Hei Yinghao if he was really tricked by them.
''Good! It seems this silly fox is not as silly as I thought! As I expected from my teammate!'' Tang Li Xue giggled, but she frowned a bit after that.
''Wait a minute! Did he just touch my fake''s b.r.e.a.s.t?! Tsk, what a pervert silly fox! I will teach him a lesson after this match is over!'' Tang Li Xueined in her mind.
For an unknown reason, Hei Yinghao''s body started to shudder a bit, and he also felt cold.
Hei Yinghao tilted his head in puzzlement, but he immediately decided to forget it.
The real Tang Li Xue approached the unconscious fake Tang Li Xue to check for her current condition.
The true form of the fake Tang Li Xue was actually the grey fox with bones and muscles changing-type divine ability, which they met in the entry trial before entering Myriad Foxes Academy before!
''Tsk, Tsk, Tsk! He can change his bones, muscles, height, weight, even his voices?! What an interesting divine ability! It seems he can even make a pair of wings before? I wonder if he could also change his gender and his... reproductive organ down there?!'' Tang Li Xue started to consider whether she will copy this grey fox''s divine ability or not in her mind.
In the end, she decided not to copy it since his divine ability seems a bit risky.
Like, what if she copied the other divine ability after she already changed her physique with this divine ability?
Did it mean she could not change her physique back after the divine ability got reced?
Tang Li Xue shook her head and immediately rejected the idea to copy this divine ability.
Although the grey fox could change his bones and muscles, but it seems he could not mend the broken bones and the tore muscles, so he certainly could no longer continue to fight in this battle.
The number of people who dropped out of the match between the two teams was the same now.
Li Jing, Gan Aomiao, the orange-haired girl, and the grey-haired man were the ones who already dropped out of the match.
So it was the match of 4 on 4 right now!
Unfortunately, the result has already been decided the moment they failed to take down Tang Li Xue in one sweep since Tang Li Xue has her [Twin Moons] divine ability, so this match was actually 5 on 4.
''Sigh... But the rest of them have a really annoying divine ability! And... I have an appointment with Teacher Li Wei today so I must finish this match quickly!'' Tang Li Xue thought for a moment and frowned slightly.
The brown-haired girl with earth-type divine ability could dive under the ground.
The male red-robed student with blue hair has an undetectable stealth-type divine ability.
The one with barrier-type divine ability could use its divine ability to make a fortress to protect itself.
Thest one was the easiest to deal with, the user of illusion-type divine ability. At least for Tang Li Xue who immune to any illusion with the [Huang Family Heirloom Ring] on her neck, this kind of opponent was the easiest one.
Tang Li Xue could easily defeat them all alone but finding them one by one was truly time-consuming, and Tang Li Xue did not have enough patience to y hide and seek with them in the fogged environment like this.
While Tang Li Xue still thought deeply about how to find all of their locations at once, Huang Hao ran passing in front of Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue did not know clearly if the Huang Hao who run passed her was the real one or only one of the [Shadow Clones], but Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes immediately brightened up, and she activated her [Mirror of the Moon] in an instant.
Copy Start!
Name: Shadow Clones
Type: Divine Ability
Copy Completed!
''I can use my [Shadow Clones] to help me find those people! Hehehe... Let''s see how many [Shadow Clones] I can create this time!'' Tang Li Xue giggled happily and activated the [Shadow Clones].
FWOOOOOSSSSSSHHH~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure instantly split into twenty-four identical figures!
Tang Li Xue could only make six [shadow clones] before she evolved into [Umon] grade but now, she could make four times of that number!
''Not yet! My perfect copy can use it too!'' Tang Li Xue sent her thought to her perfect copy, and she also used the [Shadow Clones].
FWOOOOOSSSSSSHHH~~!!!
With this, Tang Li Xue has forty-eight [Shadow Clones] right now!
Different from Tang Li Xue''s [Twin Moons], these [Shadow Clones] could not use any divine ability and barely have enough fighting prowess, so it could only be used as distraction and decoy to confuse the enemies.
However, it was more than enough since Tang Li Xue only needs to use them to find all of her enemies'' locations!
Tang Li Xue''s forty-eight [Shadow Clones] scattered to different directions, and it only took them a few seconds to find the illusion-type divine ability user and Barrier-type divine ability user, because both of them did not have any way to hide like the earth-type divine ability user or stealth-type divine ability user!
Tang Li Xue immediately went to finish the Barrier-type divine ability user, while her perfect copy was chasing after the illusion-type divine ability user!
The Barrier-type divine ability user was a teenage girl with short ck-colored hair. She was quite a beauty if ced among human girls but could only be described as below average if ced among the gorgeous fox girls.
On contrary to Tang Li Xue''s expectation, this short-haired girl did not panic or anxious at all even after she saw more than ten Tang Li Xue''s [Shadow Clones] charged towards her.
Tang Li Xue saw Huang Hao lied unconscious beneath the short-haired girl''s feet and immediately raised her vignce to the maximum.
It was clear this short-haired girl was not a pushover even though her divine ability was only to create some barriers!
"I see. Since you are here, it means our little puppy''s n is failed. But this is good for me too because I canpare my current prowess with the strongest one!" The short-haired girl said to Tang Li Xue with a calm tone full of confidence.
For some reason, Tang Li Xue started to think that this short-haired girl in front of her might be the strongest one among all of Zhiruo''s students!
.....
The illusion-type divine ability user was a fragile-looking girl with cyan-colored long hair.
The illusion of this cyan-haired girl was so strong since it could affect all of Tang Li Xue''s team even though their distance from each other was quite far, maybe about a few hundreds of meters away.
Unfortunately, this cyan-haired girl was the same type as Gan Aomiao. Both of them have powerful mental abilities but their directbat prowess was truly pathetic.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also immune to any illusion just like the real one so she defeated this cyan-haired girl almost in an instant without any difficulty at all.
After the cyan-haired girl had been defeated by Tang Li Xue, the effect of her illusion which confusing Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi have also dispersed, and they could see and sense everything around them clearly as usual again.
Bing Yi immediately dashed towards Hei Yinghao who currently fighting with both the blue-haired man with the stealth-type divine ability and the curly brown-haired girl with the earth-type divine ability.
"This is bad! Watch out, everyone! They broke out from the illusion!" The curly brown-haired girl frowned and shouted to warn her teammates.
"It is impossible for them to suddenly break out of our illusion. Something bad must have happened to our little sis! There is a big high chance that someone from their team has already taken out our little sis!" The blue-haired man whispered softly to the curly brown-haired girl with his hoarse voice.
"Sigh... You are right. I lost contact with 3 of our people while we already defeated 3 of their people too. It seems we are back to square one." The curly brown-haired girl sighed in regret and grumbled for a moment.
"I will take care of that icy sister while you can y with that ck-haired brother for a while. Just kept stalling for more time until I defeat that icy sister, and we can take him down togetherter!" The curly brown-haired girl told the blue-haired man before the ground under her feet moved on its own and brought her toward Bing Yi.
The curly brown-haired girl knew that Hei Yinghao has frightening battle prowess since both of them could not defeat him even with the illusion''s help before, which was why she only told the blue-haired man to only stalling for more time.
With this, their match has finally entered their final phase.
Tang Li Xue was currently fighting against the ck short-haired girl with the barrier-type divine ability.
Bing Yi will fight against the curly brown-haired girl with the earth-type divine ability.
Hei Yinghao was also facing against the blue-haired man with the undetectable stealth-type divine ability.
Chapter 187 - 187: Battle of Attrition! (1)
Chapter 187 - 187: Battle of Attrition! (1)
Tang Li Xue gathered all of her [Shadow Clones] including her perfect copy from [Twin Moons] divine ability.
More than twenty of her [Shadow Clones] charged toward the short ck-haired girl at the same time.
BBBOOOOOOOOMMMMM~~!!!
But almost all of them stomped t by the giant blue crystal barrier!
BOFF... BOFF... BOFF... BOFF... BOFF...
Most of Tang Li Xue''s [Shadow Clones] dispersed back into white smoke, and it only took one attack from the short ck-haired girl to do that!
''What the hell! This girl can even use her barrier-type divine ability like that?! What an annoying divine ability! Let''s see if I can pass through it with my [Ethereal Form]!'' Tang Li Xue silently activated her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure vanished into thin air.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also activated her [Ethereal Form], and her figure turned transparent.
She ordered the remaining of her [Shadow Clones] to pounce toward the short ck-haired girl, while she and her perfect copy stealthy approached the short ck-haired girl from two different directions.
"It''s futile. If you want to defeat me, you have to fight me directly with all of your power! Such a sneaky way is useless against me!" The short ck-haired girl said with the cold monotonous tone.
The short ck-haired girl pped her hands, and her figure instantly encased in the big crystal blue box protecting her from any threat and harm!
Tang Li Xue''s copy charged toward the big crystal blue box with her [Ethereal Form] kept activating but...
BAAAAAANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s copy actually failed to pass through the blue crystal barrier even with her [Ethereal Form]!
''Dammit! Her barrier is actually condensed from the ice elemental energy!'' Tang Li Xue halted her step and stopped charging recklessly toward the big crystal blue box since she already knew her [Ethereal Form] could not pass this ck short-haired girl''s barrier.
''Come to think of it... why am I not copy her divine ability first to understand its effect before charging recklessly toward her like this?!'' Tang Li Xue shook her head and felt that what she did just now was a bit ridiculous.
The short ck-haired girl''s lips curved upward when Tang Li Xue''s copy crashed onto her blue barrier, and Tang Li Xue copy''s [Ethereal Form] also automatically got canceled.
The gelid energy from the crystal blue barrier started to invade the copy''s body. Her body was frozen solid as the thickyer of frost covered every inch of her white skin.
"This is over!" The short ck-haired girl pped her hands again, and two crystal blue barriers appeared on the copy''s right and left side in an instant.
The two crystal blue barriers moved toward Tang Li Xue''s frozen copy with amazing speed from the opposite directions and sandwiched her in the middle.
BBBOOOOOOOOMMMMM~~!!!
The short ck-haired girl widened her eyes in surprise when she saw another two crystal blue barriers were protecting the Tang Li Xue''s frozen copy from both sides and stopped the short ck-haired girl''s attacks!
Copy Start!
Name: cial Barrier
Type: Divine Ability
Copy Completed!
Tang Li Xue peeked at her system log for a moment to confirm the effect of the short ck-haired girl''s divine ability.
''[cial Barrier]... So it really is made from the condensation of ice elemental energy! Tsk, what a troublesome divine ability! This ability is almost identical to Bing Yi''s [Freezing Field] but with solid form. The ice elemental energy contains inside this [cial Barrier] is also higher than Bing Yi''s [Freezing Field], since it condenses into solid form rather than remain as freezing aura.'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance while canceled her [Twin Moons] divine ability.
But Tang Li Xue immediately activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability again and summoned out her copy in front of her.
It would take a few minutes for her perfect copy to recover from that frozen state, so resummoned it like this will be faster than just waiting for her to recover by herself.
"I am really surprised that you can really copy all kinds of different divine abilities. But it doesn''t mean anything if you cannot use my [cial Barrier] divine ability better than me!" The short ck-haired girl shouted to Tang Li Xue and pped her hands once again.
"We will see about that!" Tang Li Xue''s copy giggled with her melodious pleasant voice and pped her hands too.
The short ck-haired girl condensed a big [cial Barrier] above Tang Li Xue''s copy and stomped down mercilessly!
However, Tang Li Xue''s copy already encased herself in the big crystal blue box made from her own [cial Barrier], so the short ck-haired girl''s attack could no longer harm her!
The short ck-haired girl''s expression turned solemn when she realized that Tang Li Xue''s control over the [cial Barrier] divine ability was not much worse than herself.
"Now I know why our little puppy is going as far as employing such a dangerous strategy like ''sacrificing the rook to takedown the queen''. You are really a fearsome opponent." The short ck-haired girl said to Tang Li Xue with a tone full of admiration.
"It applies to both of us. You are a fearsome opponent to me too." Tang Li Xue''s copy replied back.
.....
...
.
"Hello, icy sister!" The curly brown-haired girl smiled cheerfully at Bing Yi.
"So, it''s you." Bing Yi said with a cold tone.
"I have already long wanted to fight against icy sister alone one on one since we met face to face in the second trial at the ck-clothed men''s encampment! Finally, my wish will be fulfilled now!" The curly brown-haired girl smiled even more brightly.
"Stop talking, and let''s be quick! I still have to assist Little Xue and Silly Hei!" Bing Yi sprinted to the curly brown-haired girl while kept increasing her [Freezing Field] output and made everything in her surroundings covered by the thickyer of white frost.
The curly brown-haired girl giggled and waved her palm as if she ordered the earth itself to attack Bing Yi!
Chapter 188 - 188: Battle of Attrition! (2)
Chapter 188 - 188: Battle of Attrition! (2)
Countless sharp stone spikes sprouted out from the ground and targeting Bing Yi, ready to turn her into a porcupine.
However, Bing Yi did not panic at all and increased her [Freezing Field] output explosively!
The countless sharp stone spikes instantly turned into countless ice lumps and exploded into crystal dust.
The curly brown-haired girl still did not give up as she stomped her feet onto the ground and made the ground instantly shook violently.
[Earthquake]!
Bing Yi immediately used her [Freezing Field] again and froze the soles of her feet until it clinging onto the frozen ground below her feet. With this, she could still stand steadily, even under the attack of violent [Earthquake].
Who knows that the curly brown-haired girl stomped her feet again for the second time and made the ground under her feet cracked in two.
The crack on the ground got wider and wider when it kept spreading onto the ground under Bing Yi''s feet, and it almost turned into a chasm!
But Bing Yi did not run away. She still stood there fearlessly.
Bing Yi injected more of her vitality energy to strengthen her [Freezing Field], and her icy energy prated even deeper into the underground.
The ground under Bing Yi''s feet stopped splitting into two and merged back into one.
The earth was under the curly brown-haired girl''s control, but when it freezing, it will be under Bing Yi''s control!
Right now, their surrounding scenes were split into two.
The ce where the curly brown-haired girl stood was filled with lush grasses, and there were several green trees nearby. Made her looked like an elf queen who protected the forest.
The ce where Bing Yi stood was covered by the thick crystalyer white frost. The surrounding grasses, soil, and trees werepletely frozen. It made Bing Yi, who stood in the middle of it, looked like a lonely ice queen.
Two sovereign of their own elementals stood face to face against each other!
.....
...
.
Hei Yinghao sprinted toward where Tang Li Xue fought to help her, but this invisible blue-haired man would jump out from his hiding ce from time to time and attacked Hei Yinghao''s vital spots.
Thanks to this invisible blue-haired man''s continuous sneak attacks, Hei Yinghao could barely move around freely.
Hei Yinghao got very pissed off from this invisible blue-haired man''s sneak attacks, but the blue-haired man has the assassin-type battle style, so his explosive speed was quite high.
Hei Yinghao already tried to counterattack many times before the blue-haired man could hide again using his stealth-type divine ability, but he kept failing tond any hit on that blue-haired man.
''This approach is not bad too. I can slowly wear him down bit by bit before knocking him unconsciouster!'' The blue-haired man thought.
But unfortunately, his hope will not be fulfilled today.
Because when the blue-haired man sneaked attack from behind Hei Yinghao again, Hei Yinghao did not dodge the sneak attack anymore but only tilted his body for a bit so the sneak attack will notnd on his vital spot.
PUUFFFF~~!!!
The blue-haired man did not manage to stab Hei Yinghao''s chest, but at least, he managed to stab Hei Yinghao''s shoulder with his sharp ws now.
Hei Yinghao did not even frown or scream in pain like the other people. He grabbed the blue-haired man''s wrist tightly with his right hand while murmured in a cold tone: "Finally, I caught you!"
Hei Yinghao shot his left palm toward the blue-haired man''s chest.
BOOOOOOOMM~~!!!
The destructive force of Hei Yinghao''s divine ability injured many of the blue-haired man''s internal organs and broke the bones in his chest into tiny pieces.
Hei Yinghao''s loosened his grasp, and the unconscious blue-haired man fell onto the ground limply.
Hei Yinghao continued his way towards Tang Li Xue, and he managed to arrive at where Tang Li Xue fought in a few moments.
Right at this moment, Tang Li Xue''s copy still fought fiercely with the short ck-haired girl using the same divine ability, the [cial Barrier]!
This battle was like the fight between two turtles since both of them were protected by the solid crystal blue box.
"Xue! Let''s attack her together!" Hei Yinghao shouted to Tang Li Xue.
Hei Yinghao was quite confident that his [Destruction Force] divine ability can shatter this solid crystal blue box.
Tang Li Xue''s copy frowned when she saw Hei Yinghao ran toward her and even tried to assist her.
If she really wanted for any help, the real Tang Li Xue would have already stepped in since long ago!
But right now, the real Tang Li Xue was only watching with eyes glowing full of enthusiasm at the sideline while urging her perfect copy to experiment with the [cial Barrier] divine ability.
So how could she let this pest... cough... I mean this silly fox interfered with her experiment.
"Silly fox, I am alright! Hush, Hush, Hush! Go and help Bing Yi first!" Tang Li Xue''s copy shouted to drive Hei Yinghao away in annoyance.
"Oh, all right! I got it!" Hei Yinghao nodded his head with a solemn expression.
Hei Yinghao thought that Tang Li Xue tried to stall for more time, so he and Bing Yi could defeat all the other enemies first before helping her.
Hei Yinghao''s figure shed away as he ran toward where Bing Yi was currently fighting.
"Oi, Ice Girl! Ie here to help you! Let''s defeat her together!" Hei Yinghao shouted to Bing Yi.
"Go away! I don''t need your help! You can help Little Xue first!" Bing Yi shouted back to Hei Yinghao with a cold tone while shooting away countless sharp ice spikes to the curly brown-haired girl.
The curly brown-haired girl waved her palm, the ground in front of her rising in an instant, and forming the stone wall to block all the sharp ice spikes.
Hei Yinghao: "...."
''Why women are soplicated?! They kept pushing me away to help the other! So which one I should help first now?!'' Hei Yinghao''s lips twitched violently in frustration and confusion.
Chapter 189 - 189: Battle Conclusion! (1)
Chapter 189 - 189: Battle Conclusion! ?(1)
In the end, Hei Yinghao decided to watch over Tang Li Xue from afar, so he could immediately help her if her situation turned unfavorableter.
But Tang Li Xue clearly did not need any help right now since all of the short ck-haired girl''s attacks were not strong enough to break her defense.
''I am getting bored with this game. Let''s just end this now!'' The real Tang Li Xue yawned as she stood behind her perfect copy with her [Ethereal Form] kept activating.
"You are not bad but I have an appointment after this so... I am sorry but I am going to end this!" Tang Li Xue''s copy said to the short ck-haired girl.
The short ck-haired girl only chuckled when she heard Tang Li Xue''s words and she replied: "If you really have a way to defeat me, why you must wait until now? It is futile to bluff me. You can''t make me anxious with just your words alone."
The short ck-haired girl still believed that Tang Li Xue did not have any way to defeat her and thought the only way for them to decide the winner of this battle of attraction was topare their patience and stamina.
Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips curved upward, forming a mesmerizing confidence smile that could make countless flowers lost its colors. Unfortunately, no one could appreciate it since it was hidden behind the fox mask.
"Then, let''s see if you can handle this!" Tang Li Xue''s copy dispersed the crystal blue box made from [cial Barrier] that covered her.
The short ck-haired girl started to frown but she would not miss this chance so she immediately condensed two [cial Barriers] to attack Tang Li Xue''s copy from two different directions.
Tang Li Xue''s copy did not bother to summon out any [cial Barrier] to defend herself. She only raised one of her hands to the sky and...
[cial Barrier]... plus... [Energy maniption]!!!
The icy energy, which should be condensed into a wall but under the effect of [Energy maniption], it actually did not form a wall right now!
More than twenty meters tall icy blue sword was floating above Tang Li Xue''s copy!
Tang Li Xue''s copy expended more than half of her energies in creating this giant sword and even used [cial Barrier] to make it have the freezing effect.
Tang Li Xue''s copy waved her hand and the twenty meters tall icy blue sword started to spin around Tang Li Xue.
The two [cial Barriers] which almost mped her was cut in two so easily by the giant icy blue sword like two pieces of thin papers.
The short ck-haired girl dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief when she saw how easy Tang Li Xue''s sword cleaved her [cial Barrier].
"I hope your box there is more durable than this because if not, this sword of mine will certainly split you in two!" Tang Li Xue''s copy warned while waved her hand toward the direction where the short ck-haired girl''s stood.
The short ck-haired girl woke up from her daze and immediately pped her hand. The blue crystal box which encased her became even thicker and thicker because the short ck-haired girl quickly put severalyers of [Gracial Barriers] on top of it!
The twenty meters giant icy blue sword flew from above with lightning speed leaving the icy blue trail on its path!
It shed toward the short ck-haired girl''s blue crystal box like a giant guillotine de, ready to cleaving the short ck-haired girl in two!
The short ck-haired girl already made more than tenyers of blue crystal box from [cial Barrier] in an instant to protect her.
Unfortunately, all of those [cial Barriers] was clearly not enough since Tang Li Xue''s giant icy blue sword cut through them like a piece of tofu!
"AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!" The short ck-haired girl could only scream in fear and horror when Tang Li Xue''s giant icy blue sword broke her final [cial Barrier] and finally reached her head!
BBBOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
The real Tang Li Xue actually already moved near the short ck-haired girl and ready to save the short ck-haired girl at thest moment. However, the real Tang Li Xue saw a thinyer of transparent barrier already protecting the girl, so she decided to not make any move.
The giant icy blue sword crashed hard onto the short ck-haired girl''s head!
Even the strong transparent barrier was rippling for a few moments after that violent crash, but the transparent barrier did not show any sign of crack at all, proofing how durable it was.
The short ck-haired girl''s body smashed violently deep onto the ground as if a tough nail met with a giant hammer instead of the giant sword.
Although the strong transparent barrier protected the short ck-haired girl at thest moment, but the shockwave from that powerful strike still managed to hurt her internal organs and broke many of her bones.
Currently, the short ck-haired girl nted deep onto the ground and fell unconscious.
''It''s stronger than I expected! So I canbine any effect I want into this [Energy Maniption]... Wait a minute! If Ibine my me of Pride''s extremely hot temperature effect with this [Energy Maniption], the power will surely greater than this! Uwehehehe... I can''t wait to try it!'' Tang Li Xue grinned slyly.
Tang Li Xue could disperse anything she created with [Energy Maniption] after the battle has ended, but it did not mean the energy she used wille back to her. The energy which she used to make that creation will also disperse along with it.
So Tang Li Xue did not let her copy to disperse the giant icy blue sword yet because they still have one enemy to defeat.
The real Tang Li Xue still in [Ethereal Form] while the giant icy blue sword kept floating above Tang Li Xue''s copy and both of them sprinted toward where Bing Yi fought, but she met with Hei Yinghao on her way there.
Why are you still here watching my battle? Didn''t I say you can help Bing Yi first?" Tang Li Xue''s copy asked Hei Yinghao with a tone full of displeasing.
Chapter 190 - 190: Battle Conclusion! (2)
Chapter 190 - 190: Battle Conclusion! ?(2)
Hei Yinghao felt really wronged by Tang Li Xue''s question, so he immediately exined everything to her.
"Xue, this is not my fault! I already tried to help, but that cold girl said she did not need my help, and I should go to help you instead!" Hei Yinghao pursed his lips.
"Oh, so she also wants to fight one on one battle? Let''s go and watch their battle!" Tang Li Xue smiled and ran excitedly to observe Bing Yi''s match.
.....
...
.
When Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao arrived, Bing Yi''s battle with the curly brown-haired girl already reached the peak.
Both of them still uninjured, but Bing Yi''s breath already turned heavy while the curly brown-haired girl was still calm as usual with a gentle smile on her face.
It was clear that the curly brown-haired girl held a huge advantage in this kind of environment.
The result would certainly be different if they fought on the mountain peak full of snow or in the cold environment full of ice.
The curly brown-haired girl peeked at Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao who stood a bit far away from them and sighed in resignation.
"It seems my ss has lost this time." The curly brown-haired girl murmured in a sad tone.
"All of my teammates have won so it''s my turn now. Be careful... This time I will go all out!" Bing Yi''s eyes shone with resolve as she warned the curly brown-haired girl.
"Come, icy sister! Let''s finish this now!" The curly brown-haired girl stomped her feet onto the ground.
BBBAAAAAANGGGGG~~!!!
A giant stone dragon''s head rose from the ground and pounced toward Bing Yi!
Bing Yi raised both of her hands toward the giant stone dragon''s head and shot out her [Freezing Field].
But different from her usual version which freezing her surrounding, this version only sted the freezing aura onto one direction!
The freezing aura became more condensed and the freezing power also multiplied by several folds!
The giant stone dragon''s head was frozen in an instant. It shattered into countless crystal dust when it dropped onto the ground.
"Not yet! Again!" The curly brown-haired girl refused to give up as she shouted and stomped her feet onto the ground a few times.
This time she summoned out the three giant stone dragons at once!
The three giant stone dragons opened its jaws full of sharp fangs and jumped to Bing Yi at once!
Bing Yi did not even have any time to dodge before the three giant stone dragons bit her body.
"Ice Girl!" Hei Yinghao shouted anxiously. He wanted to dash toward Bing Yi and save her but Tang Li Xue''s copy immediately stopped him.
"Don''t worry, she is alright. But it seems the winner of this battle has already been decided!" Tang Li Xue''s copy giggled in amus.e.m.e.nt.
BAAAANNG~!!!
Bing Yi''s figure shattered into countless pieces the moment the three giant stone dragons closed its sharp jaws.
"She shattered into pieces?" Hei Yinghao rubbed his eyes in surprise.
"What?! How could it be?! Ice mirror? Is that only an ice mirror?!" The curly brown-haired girl widened her eyes while kept mumbling in shock and disbelief.
Among all the people here, only Tang Li Xue and her copy did not be fooled by Bing Yi''s trick. All of this was thanks to her [Spirit Perception] which could even detect everything clearly in this distance.
The curly brown-haired girl and Hei Yinghao should be able to sense it too if their distance was closer, but unfortunately, both of them failed to notice it since they stood a bit far away from Bing Yi now.
Of course, this trick could only work in this kind of fogged environment where they could not see everything clearly!
"Then where is she now?!" The curly brown-haired girl instantly woke up from her daze and raised her vignce to the maximum.
She stomped her feet onto the ground and made the ground where she stood ascending higher and higher.
"It''s already toote for you to run!"
The curly brown-haired girl heard Bing Yi''s cold sound from above her head and tilted her head upward.
Bing Yi was already descending toward her and only a few meters away from her!
"Checkmate!" Bing Yi whispered to the curly brown-haired girl and activated her [Freezing Field] with all of her remaining stamina.
Many thoughts ran on the curly brown-haired girl''s mind as her body covered by a thickyer of white frost.
''If only I dive down into the ground instead of ascending upward...''
''If only I stalling for more time until she ispletely exhausted before knocking her out...''
''If only...''
Unfortunately, there was no ''if'' in true battle!
Winner and loser could be decided only in a single moment. It only took one single mistake to ruin everything.
In fact, the curly brown-haired girl was still very lucky since this was only a sparring match, and not a life or death battle, if not she would have been killed by Bing Yi.
Bing Yi used both of her hands to cover her head before she crashed onto the ground, but Tang Li Xue already used the giant icy blue sword to caught Bing Yi in mid-air before it happens.
The icy energy in the giant icy blue sword nourished the exhausted Bing Yi instead of freezing her made Bing Yi felt extremelyfortable now.
"Inspector ss Team Wins!" The faceless referee''s sound echoed through the entire fogged forest.
Ding!
[Quest Completed!]
[Gained: Level +3(+1), Stat Point+45(+11), Skill Point+9(+2), 150(+38) Deity Coins]
[Evaluation: Perfect] [Added Additional Reward: 50 Skill Points]

[Congrattion! You have achieved level 4! Stat Point +100, Skill Point +15]
[Congrattion! You have achieved level 5! Stat Point +100, Skill Point +15]
''Phew... This quest is finallypleted! Now I just need to wait for the challenge from that Mogui and trigger another quest! After I defeat that Mogui, my level would certainly skyrocketing once more! Hehehe...'' Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and giggled happily.
Chapter 191 - 191: Inscription Lesson! (1)
Chapter 191 - 191: Inscription Lesson! (1)
The scene of fogged forest vanished, and all of them returned back to their sparring room.
The faceless referee gave 20,000 credits to Tang Li Xue and merged back into the formation in the sparring room.
10,000 credits were Tang Li Xue''s own credits, while the rest 10,000 credits were what her team earned from their match today.
Not long after that, the medical squad entered the sparring room and carried away all the injured ones in to the medical ward.
While Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao waited for the others to regain their consciousness in the medical ward, Hei Yinghao asked Tang Li Xue about Bing Yi''s battle in curiosity: "Xue, since when did you realize that the Ice Girl used the ice mirror as a decoy? And... how could she came down from the sky like that?"
"When she froze the first stone dragon head, she already set the ice mirror in a tricky angle to fool her opponent. After that first stone dragon head shattered into countless tiny crystal dust, the fog around her will thicken for a moment, and she used that moment tounch an ice spike into the air. Bing Yi must have used that ice spike as her foothold and flew above her opponent''s head to approach her opponent." Tang Li Xue exined Hei Ying hao from the start to finish.
If the students did not spar with the instructor or the teacher then they must pay 1,000 credits to get healed.
Of course, Tang Li Xue and her ssmates would never pay 1,000 credits only to get healed!
So they immediately leave the medical ward after they regained their consciousness and split the 10,000 credits they won equally.
Everyone got 1,600 credits except Tang Li Xue, who got 2,000 credits since she was the MVP in today''s match.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to be polite with them, so she happily epted it since she was really in dire need of more credits right now.
Li Jing, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the others wanted to go back to the residential building and eat their lunch at the luxurious restaurant on the first floor, so Tang Li Xue bid them farewell because she needs to meet with Teacher Li Wei now.
"You arete." Teacher Li Wei alreadyined the moment he saw Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue rolled her blue eyes and exined: "I have a sparring match with Executor ss students after the ss today."
"Hoh? Did you win?" Teacher Li Wei raised his eyebrow curiously behind his fox mask.
"Of course, I won! Where are you going to teach me?" Tang Li Xue raised her chin and put a smug face.
Teacher Li Wei flicked Tang Li Xue''s forehead and said: "Next time you can tell me first before you go to the sparring match with anyone. At least I can watch it to kill my boredom rather than waiting for you here. I can also heal you if you are injuredter. Let''s go!"
Tang Li Xue followed Teacher Li Wei from behind and thought they will go to Teacher Li Wei''s ce, but Teacher Li Wei actually only brought her to the empty ssroom and teaching her about the inscription there.
However, Teacher Li Wei did not realize that Tang Li Xue, who followed him was actually only the perfect copy.
While the copy entered the empty ssroom with Teacher Li Wei, the real Tang Li Xue brought Yaya to enter the library and took the empty seat at the corner.
It was lunchtime right now, so the library was really quiet at this time and it suits Tang Li Xue''s needs the most.
''If my perfect copy learned about inscription from Teacher Li Wei while I kept inscribing the talisman with golden [Inscription Pen], my progress will certainly faster, and I could also save more of my precious time by doing this!'' Tang Li Xue thought and nodded in satisfaction.
With this Tang Li Xue believed she could progress twice faster with only half effort, her real self could also make more talisman with golden [Inscription Pen], and she could sell it to get more credits.
"First, let''s begin with the most basic. Take out your Inscription Pen and try to hold it!" Teacher Li Wei''s demeanorpletely changed and became stricter.
"Teacher Li, I forget to bring my Inscription Pen. Can I borrow yours?" Tang Li Xue asked.
Tang Li Xue already tried to hold her golden [Inscription Pen] before activating her [Twin Moons] divine ability but her golden [Inscription Pen] did not split in two like her.
In short, only equipment-type items will split along with her like her clothes, [Shadow Striders], and [Critical Strikers] while the others could not.
But this really made sense since it would be a huge bug if all of her items could follow her and split in two for example her space pouch and all the items inside it or the consumable items from her system such as [Greater Lucky Sticker], [Great Cmity Sticker], and so on.
"Forget to bring your Inscription Pen? Isn''t your whatever finger ability capable of creating anything? Just create your Inscription Pen like what you did in the Inscriptionist Exam." Teacher Li Wei chuckled and asked Tang Li Xue.
"Teacher Li, I want to learn everything about the inscription from scratch, so I don''t want to use my power. I want to use the real Inscription Pen this time." Tang Li Xue lied without flinching.
She realized that she made a big blunder this time because she said she could create everything with her [One Finger Create the World] divine ability before.
Teacher Li Wei knew Tang Li Xue was lying, but he did not force her to tell him the truth since everyone has their own secret including him too.
Teacher Li Wei took out an Inscription Pen from his space pouch and gave it to Tang Li Xue.
"You don''t need to give it back to meter. Just keep it and think of it as an exchange gift for your talisman yesterday. Alright! Let''s begin our lesson now!" Teacher Li Wei started to instruct Tang Li Xue.
Chapter 192 - 192: Inscription Lesson! (2)
Chapter 192 - 192: Inscription Lesson! (2)
The inscription Pen in the perfect copy''s hand was white like it was made from white jade. It looked beautiful and elegant, perfectly suited with Tang Li Xue as if it was specially designed for her.
Tang Li Xue held the white-colored Inscription Pen with her slender fingers, it felt cold andfortable in her grasp. Tang Li Xue instantly fond with this white-colored inscription Pen after only holding it for a few moments.
She smiled gently and stroked it gently with her left hand while holding it firmly with her right hand.
Teacher Li Wei silently smiled behind his fox mask when he saw how fond Tang Li Xue with that Inscription Pen. Actually, he especially designed that Inscription Pen yesterday night as an exchange for Tang Li Xue''s enhanced Talisman.
"The way you hold that pen is wrong! Where did you learn it before? From your human teacher?" Teacher Li Wei held Tang Li Xue''s hand from behind and corrected the way she held the Inscription Pen.
"Your body posture is wrong! Why are you bending like that? Your spine should always straight!"
"Your Inscription Pen must always stand up straight too!"
"Never let your wrist touches the talisman paper! Use your left hand to hold your right sleeve!"
"Your wrist should move more flexible! Wrist flexion is very important!"
The real Tang Li Xue who sat in the library twitched her pinkish lips in annoyance.
Teacher Li Wei basically criticized everything about her from her body posture, the way she held the Inscription Pen, even the way she moved her wrist, fingers, and hand.
Tang Li Xue never thought that Teacher Li Wei would teach her for the entire day until the sky turned dark.
But what she learned today was only about the correct body posture and how to hold the Inscription Pen.
Teacher Li Wei finally let Tang Li Xue go home after he realized it was already night.
"You should be more careful in the future. Zi Yan will not dare to do anything in Myriad Foxes Academy, but there is no guarantee if she will not do anything outside in the future." Teacher Li Wei warned Tang Li Xue a bit.
"Teacher Li, why are you kept avoiding her like this? Why don''t you reject her directly?" Tang Li Xue asked curiously.
"Do you think I am ying with her feeling or something like that? I already reject her feeling hundreds of times, but she kept sticking to me like super glue! She even threatens any female who got close to me like the other teachers and even my own students!" Teacher Li Wei rolled his eyes and exined.
"What a psycho?! Why not teach her a lesson so she would never dare to get close to you ever again?" Tang Li Xue suggested to Teacher Li Wei.
"It is easy for you to say that, but the problem is not that simple. Do you know that woman''s identity and her backing?" Teacher Li Wei stared at Tang Li Xue and asked.
"Eh? Who?" Tang Li Xue asked in curiosity.
"Zi Yan''s elder sister is Zi Hua, the current President of the Inscriptionist Association here." Teacher Li Wei''s words were like lightning, which struck Tang Li Xue''s mind.
Teacher Li Wei and Tang Li Xue walked together toward the Education Building''s entrance, but Tang Li Xue immediately halted her step.
"Teacher Li, can I change my mind now? Is it already toote if I apologized to that Zi Yan now and promised to cut all of my rtionship with you in the future?" Tang Li Xue asked with a pitiful tone.
Teacher Li Weiughed out loud and asked back: "Do you think it possible?"
Tang Li Xue stomped her feet in anger and kept staring at Teacher Li Wei with resentment from behind.
"Don''t worry, I will protect you from now on." Teacher Li Wei said one sentence to Tang Li Xue and walked away from her after they reached the entrance.
''What do you mean you will protect me?! You don''t even dare to confront that Zi Yan alone without dragging me with you!'' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind.
The real Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form], and she appeared from behind the perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue also canceled her [Twin Moons] divine ability and the perfect copy which stood in front of her vanished in an instant.
Tang Li Xue''s harvest today was not bad at all. She managed to create seventeen [Talismans of Regeneration +1] and eleven [Talismans of Regeneration +2] in sixty tries.
Tang Li Xue started to believe that correcting body posture and how to hold the Inscription Pen was actually really increased her chance of creating the talisman.
Previously her sess chance was only 20% to 30%, but now, it seems increased to around 50%.
Tang Li Xue came to Auction House first to put all of her [Talismans of Regeneration +1] and [Talismans of Regeneration +2] on the auction list, but she decided to take the credits from selling it tomorrow at the same hours.
Tang Li Xue brought the sleeping Yaya back to Residential Building first before she woke up Yaya to eat at the luxurious restaurant on the first floor.
Both of them ate so many delicious foods until their stomach bulged a bit and went back into her room after that.
Like always, Yaya went straight to bed after entering the bedroom.
Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips twitched as she thought: ''This little one is really like to sleep, but strangely she hates to be stored inside the system''s storage, even though she can sleep as long as she wants in there. Maybe there is no soft bed in there? But she can sleep in the library''s tablefortably before!''
Tang Li Xue also decided to let her perfect copy rest for today since she could feel that her perfect copy was still exhausted because she pulled all-nighters to inscribe many talismans yesterday.
''Okay, I have 250 skill points right now afterpleting the quest today! Let''s see if I can merge several skills and make something like [Innate: Spirit] to strengthen my [Spirit Perception]!'' Tang Li Xue thought while opening her skill list window in her system.
Chapter 193 - 193: Buying New Skills! (1)
Chapter 193 - 193: Buying New Skills! (1)
There were many new skills on the list but the skill point needed to learn them also increased much.
There was even something like [Fire Elemental Resistance Up], [Water Elemental Resistance Up], [Wind Elemental Resistance Up], [Lightning Elemental Resistance Up], etc.
In short, there were 7 elemental resistance skills in total, including Light elemental and Darkness elemental, and Tang Li Xue was sure she couldbine them into one to create a divine ability like [All Elemental Resistance Up].
However, she needs to spend 10 Skill Points to buy each of them! So she needs 70 Skill Points in total to buy them all and it did not including the Skill Points'' price tobine them into a divine ability!
There was also something like [Poison Resistance Up], [Physical Defense Up], [Illusion Resistance Up], and many other more too. All of them cost 10 Skill Points to buy.
''Sigh... and here I thought 250 Skill Points are already quite a lot.'' Tang Li Xue decided tobine her five senses enhancement first.
Ding!
[Advanced Sense of Sight (Mastered), Advanced Sense of Hearing (Mastered), Advanced Sense of Smell (Lv5), Enhanced Sense of Touch (Lv5), and Enhanced Sense of Taste (Lv5) can bebined into Divine Ability [Five Sense Enhancement] with cost 0 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''Phew... I have already waited so long for this! YES!'' Tang Li Xue sent her thought.
[You have gained Divine Ability (Five Senses Enhancement)]
Tang Li Xue thought this [Five Senses Enhancement] divine ability was only an amalgamation of the five skills but now she realized it was a big mistake.
Not only her Five Senses got enhanced to the extreme level, but she could feel that all of her senses connected to her soul now.
This feeling was indescribable but Tang Li Xue was very sure that it has something to do to her [Spirit Perception].
Previously, she felt all of her senses did not connect to each other and her [Spirit Perception] was like her sixth sense.
But now she felt all of her senses such as her five senses and even her sixth sense, the [Spirit Perception] was connected into one!
Still think it was not that useful? Then how about this...
Previously Tang Li Xue could only faintly see her opponent next move with her ''Spirit'' but now all of her five senses could even feel what happen in the next second!
Even Tang Li Xue currently still could not believe this [Five Senses Enhancement] was actually so OP.
''Ok... Calm down, Tang Li Xue! This divine ability is certainly OP but I need the more powerful one to defeat that Moguiter. Unfortunately, I still could notbine my 3 innate divine abilities into one since I need 300 Skill Points to do it. Should I wait a little bit longer to get 50 Skill Points or should I buy some skills first today? Sigh... what a dilemma!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and decided to buy some skills about ''Spirit'' for now.
However, Tang Li Xue failed to find any skills about Spirit.
Different from the other three stats, ''Spirit'' stats were already so mysterious, so finding the skills which could bebined into it was like finding several needles in the mountain of the haystack.
''I hope I can get [Innate: Spirit]ter with these skills, the one that can triple the effect of Spirit stat like the other innate divine abilities!'' Tang Li Xue decided to buy several skills which she thought will be useful too.
[You have gained Concentration Ability!]
[You have gained Increase Evasion Ability!]
[You have gained Decrease Reaction-Time Ability!]
[You have gained Focus Ability!]
''Sigh... this is hard! I already wasted 24 Skill Points in total, but there is still no notification aboutbining!'' Tang Li Xue wiped her cold sweat and start looking at the skill list again but more carefully this time.
[You have gained Strengthen Willpower Ability!]
[You have gained Prediction Ability!]
[You have gained Increase uracy Ability!]
Ding!
''Finally... I wonder what divine ability is this?! God, please give me my [Innate: Spirit]!'' Tang Li Xue prayed in her heart.
[Increase uracy (Lv1) and Increase Evasion (Lv1) can bebined into Divine Ability [Auto Correction] with cost 5 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''What the hell is this [Auto Correction]?! Tsk... It sounds some! SKIP! Dammit! I already wasted 49 Skill Points now!'' Tang Li Xue pped her forehead in disappointment.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and became even more determined!
She decided only to stop after she spent 50 more Skill Points!
[You have gained Sharpen Mind Ability!]
[You have gained Calction Ability!]
[You have gained Intelligence Enhancement Ability!]
Ding!
[Concentration (Lv1), Focus (Lv1), Calction (Lv1), Sharpen Mind (Lv1), Prediction (Lv1), and Strengthen Willpower (Lv1), Intelligence Enhancement (Lv1) can bebined into Divine Ability [Perfect Intuition] with cost 120 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''Eh... EEEEHHHHH?! What the hell is this? [Perfect Intuition]! It sounds super amazing! But what''s this for? Don''t tell me I will be smarter than the famous detective, Sherl*ck H*lmes after I have this divine ability?!'' Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock, and she was looking really silly right now.
But Tang Li Xue still did not dare tobine it for now. 120 Skill Points was too expensive for her so she decided to increase the skill level slowly to decrease the cost just like when shebined the [Five Senses Enhancement] before.
''Phew... I still have not managed to get [Innate: Spirit] even after spending 79 Skill Points! But at least I get something good from this... I only have 171 Skill Points now. Sigh... I will wait for another day, who knows if I got luckierter.'' Tang Li Xue closed the skill list window and went to sleep with Yaya.
.....
...
.
Tomorrow morning, Tang Li Xue was woken up early by Yaya as usual. They took a bath together and went out of their room together to meet with the others.
However, Tang Li Xue heard something shocking from Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others.
Their beloved Instructor, Mei Lan already came back yesterday afternoon!
Chapter 194 - 194: Buying New Skills! (2)
Chapter 194 - 194: Buying New Skills! (2)
"Do any of you know where Instructor Lan went a few days ago?" Tang Li Xue asked Li Jing and the others.
"Little Xue, do you know that all instructors and teachers in the Education Department... no, even all the Elite ss Teams or Senior and Undergraduate rank student''s teams from Executor and Inspector ss need toplete one mission outside the Myriad Foxes Academy every month?" Li Jing tilted her head and answered Tang Li Xue.
"Eh? Really? So even all of us need toplete one mission outside the Myriad Foxes Academy every month after we reach Senior and Undergraduate rankter?"?Tang Li Xue frowned and asked again to confirm it.
Li Jing only nodded to answer Tang Li Xue''s question.
"But I heard the mission given by the Education Department is very secretive, but the reward is far more bountiful than the mission at the mission hall." Li Jing exined again.
Tang Li Xue and the others started to lick their lips impatiently while imagining the huge amount of credits they would get if they really couldplete the mission from the Education Department.
What every fox in Myriad Foxes Academy needed the most and will never be enough? Of course, the credits!
There were countless good items in Myriad Foxes Academy, such as miracle fruits which could grant divine abilities, High-Level beast cores, and many others more. All of those could only be bought with an astronomical amount of credits!
''Sigh... I am really still too poor! I need to work harder and get more credits!'' Tang Li Xue sighed in frustration.
If her words were heard by the other freshmen students and they knew how many credits Tang Li Xue have right now, they would probably strangle Tang Li Xue to death in anger.
Tang Li Xue only arrived at Foxes Myriad Foxes less than one month ago, but she already .u.mted almost 50,000 credits in her bronze cards right now while the other freshmen students probably only have 1,000 - 2,000 credits in their cards.
Tang Li Xue, Li Jing, and the others kept chatting full of enthusiasm about the mission they would ept from the Education Department in the future, and all of them unknowingly arrived at the Education Building.
Instructor Mei Lan already waited for them at Education Building''s entrance like usual.
Instructor Mei Lan''s gentle smile was blooming beautifully like the orchids at the sunset when she saw Tang Li Xue and the others.
"It seems that all of you fare better than I expected. I even heard all of you won the match against Zhirou''s students yesterday. Not bad! I will reward each of you with 500 credits." Instructor Mei Lan took out her white jade badge, and several white lights shot out from it.
Each white light entered the bronze badges of Tang Li Xue and the others, increased their total amount of credits by 500.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the others were a bit surprised because the cheapskate Instructor Mei Lan gave them this much rewards today, usually she would only give them 50 to 100 credits.
"Let''s go! I will let you all learn something new today!" Instructor Mei Lan waved her hand and walked deeper into Education Building.
Tang Li Xue and the others quickly followed behind Instructor Mei Lan.
Surprisingly, their lesson today was not in the ssroom, but they were heading straight to the second floor.
"Instructor Lan, so we will only have the fighting lesson for today?" Li Jing asked with a tone full of curiosity.
"You are only half correct. All of you will undergo what Zhirou''s students have been training starting today." Instructor Mei Lan giggled gently at them.
Li Jing, Tang Li Xue, and the others immediately shuddered violently in fear and horror. Nothing good would happen to them every time their terrifying Instructor Mei Lan giggled like that.
''Sigh... I know this will happen today after I heard Instructor Lan''s return. It seems our suffering has alreadye.'' Tang Li Xue silently groaned in her heart.
''Oh? Wait a minute?! If I used my perfect copy to rece me, doesn''t it mean the real me doesn''t need to follow this training? Uwehehehe... I am so smart!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes brightened like a pair of blue stars, and she smiled full of mischievousness.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure instantly vanished into thin air.
Then Tang Li Xue activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy to rece her ce.
"Instructor Lan, what kind of training Instructor Zhirou gave to her students? Is it to strengthen our teamwork? Because Zhirou''s students have really solid teamwork yesterday." Li Jing asked again.
Among Tang Li Xue and the others, only Li Jing was really curious about this training and impatiently looking forward to it.
"Again, it is only half correct. Just wait and see! I bet all of you will not get bored with this training." Instructor Mei Lan chuckled as she booked one of the sparring rooms from the second-floor supervisor.
"Activate the training mode formation for me." Instructor Mei Lan added.
The second-floor supervisor nodded his head to Instructor Mei Lan respectfully and rotated one of the stacked stone tes.
Tang Li Xue did not understand what he had done, but she could faintly hear the clicking sound as if something has been activated.
"Let''s go!" Instructor Mei Lan brought all of them into the sparring room.
Tang Li Xue also controlled her perfect copy with her mind and entered the sparring room with them.
Who knows that Instructor Mei Lan turned around and stared at the invisible Tang Li Xue then said: "What are you doing outside? You alsoe in!"
Tang Li Xue: ''Eh???!!!''
Tang Li Xue tried to walk to the right side, but Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes kept following her.
''Impossible! How could she still see me?! I have already trained the [Art of Concealment] for almost one month! I also have [Conceal] and [Ethereal Form] activated!'' Tang Li Xue''s heart screamed in disbelief.
"So your new divine ability allows you to split yourself in two?! Not bad! It is also extremely identical to the real one! If you use it before you met me, you would certainly able to trick me with that." Instructor Mei Lan kept maintaining the gentle smile on her face, but her words stabbed mercilessly into Tang Li Xue''s heart.
"Unfortunately, you use it in front of my eyes. Do you really think I am blind or something? Who do you think gave you that book before? Your level of mastery is only at scratched the surface, and now you want to use your pathetic level [Art of Concealment] to hide from me?" Instructor Mei Lan''s words shredded Tang Li Xue''s confidence to tiny pieces.
"Instructor Lan, I am just joking with you. I know I am wrong so please forgive me! Okay, let''s go and enter the sparring room now! I cannot wait to undergo today''s training!" Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form] and said with a tone full of impatience as if she could not wait for the training anymore.
Instructor Mei Lan only chuckled at Tang Li Xue''s exaggerating act and entered the sparring room together with her.
Chapter 195 - 195: Hide and Seek!
Chapter 195 - 195: Hide and Seek!
Tang Li Xue told Yaya to wait for her at the corner of the sparring room as usual. Tang Li Xue also promised Yaya that she would ask Instructor Mei Lan about how to let Yaya fightter after today''s lesson was over.
Tang Li Xue did not tell Yaya, but she also nned to ask about the strong wind-elemental teacher for Yaya from Instructor Mei Lanter.
"All of you don''t need to be that tense. We will only y a simple game today." Instructor Mei Lan assured all of her students and giggling when she saw her students strained expression.
Tang Li Xue and the others frowned deeper when they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words. ording to their experience, it was impossible for their Instructor Mei Lan to give them something simple or easy to do.
"Instructor Lan, what kind of game are we going to y today?" Li Jing asked with a tone full of curiosity.
Tang Li Xue and the others were staring at Li Jing with eyes full of admiration. It was really hard for people to stay pure, innocent, and brave like Li Jing after being beaten up so many times by their Instructor Mei Lan.
"We will y an exciting hide and seek game today! I will be the demon, so all of you have to do two things to win this game. First, you must avoid me at all costs. Second, you must find the key and go out of the house as soon as possible." Instructor Mei Lan kept smiling gently and exined step by step.
"There is only one key in the house, so all of you must search for it really carefully. You can also choose to get out alone or meet with the others first before going out. The winner of this game will get 500 credits from me." Instructor Mei Lan continued to exin.
Li Jing raised her hand and asked: "What if Instructor Lan finds the key first before us? Doesn''t that mean we will certainly lose?"
"Then all of you just need to defeat me and take the key from me before going out of the house." Instructor Mei Lan stared at Li Jing and answered with her gentle voice.
Well, everyone knew this was impossible, so the only way for them to win was to find that key first before Instructor Mei Lan could.
"Okay let''s start the game now! Sparring Room Number 2391, Training Mode: Trap House. Nighttime. Level: 10!" Instructor Mei Lan shouted.
''What? Trap... House?!'' Tang Li Xue and the others instantly rmed.
"By the way, I forgot to warn all of you. The house is full of dangerous traps so... be very careful at where you step." Instructor Mei Lanughed with her sweet voice, but the content of her words was pleasant to hear at all.
Before Tang Li Xue and the others couldin, their surrounding scene was faded away and everything turned dark in an instant.
With Tang Li Xue''s [Night Vision]''s ability, she could still clearly see her surroundings.
Tang Li Xue looked around and realized that she was currently inside the empty bedroom but the furniture inside was stillplete from the luxurious double size bed, dressing table, etc.
''All the furniture, antiques, and decorations here were very luxurious. This ce should be called the pce rather than the house! How could I find a tiny key in the ce as big as this?!'' Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead with her slender finger while kept thinking.
Tang Li Xue was still in the bedroom but somehow she could guess that this house was as big as the pce in the Forbidden City maybe even bigger just from the luxurious furniture and antiques.
''Maybe this is all thanks to [Intelligence Enhancement], [Sharpen Mind], [Calction], [Prediction], [Focus], and [Concentration]?! Whatever... I must think about how I could find the key as soon as possible for now! Let''s try to search it inside this room!'' Tang Li Xue began to rummaging the bedroom.
''As an inspector, this kind of thing should be our main jobter. We have to find something we want as quickly as possible while avoiding being found by any guards. That is why Instructor Lan started to training us in this matter earlier.'' Tang Li Xue nodded her head in understanding.
PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF...
When Tang Li Xue pulled out a drawer, several sharp arrows shot out from inside it towards Tang Li Xue''s face.
Tang Li Xue only tilted her head a bit, and all of these sharp arrows flew pass a few centimeters from her face.
Tang Li Xue could have dodged all of these effortlessly even if she encountered it yesterday, especially now that she already had two new skills which improve her evasive ability: [Decrease Reaction-Time] and [Increase Evasion].
"Sigh... This is really troublesome! So I even have to meet with this kind of traps when I try to find the key?" Tang Li Xue sighed andined in her heart.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability again and summoned out her perfect copy to help her search around the bedroom.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy met with many kinds of traps such as explosions,ndmines, poison gas, and even sleeping gas.
Thankfully Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were fast enough to avoid them all, but they need at least five minutes or more just to search around this bedroom and who knows how many bedrooms in this pce.
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy activated their [Ethereal Form] at the same time, and their slender figures turnedpletely transparent.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy decided to head to two different directions so they could search for the key more efficiently.
BAAAAANGGG~!!! BAAAAANGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s head and her copy''s head bumped heavily onto the solid wall!
Tang Li Xue has high Toughness stat and [Regeneration] skill, so her head only felt a bit sore and itpletely recovered in five seconds.
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief. She slowly raised her hand and tried to poke the wall in front of her with her fingers.
''How the hell could I touch this wall in my [Ethereal Form]?! Is this wall made from the special material or my [Ethereal Form] lose its effect?!'' Tang Li Xue widened her eyes, but she still forgot to close her jaw.
Tang Li Xue inhaled deeply to calm herself down and tried to hold a nearby vase. Her transparent hand passed through the vase when she tried to grasp it.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and thought: ''It seems this wall made from the special material, so I can''t pass through it even with my [Ethereal Form]. Oh well, I will only need to search all the rooms one by one in my [Ethereal Form]!''
Tang Li Xue tried to push the door open while in her [Ethereal Form] and she could actually touch the door too.
There was a long corridor with many doors outside the bedroom.
Tang Li Xue and her copy choose to head toward two different directions and opened the doors one by one.
''All of these bedrooms are identical with the first one. It''s impossible for the key to be ced here! I must find a special ce that is different from the others.'' Tang Li Xue and her copy decided to ignore all of these bedrooms.
.....
...
.
Bing Yi slowly opened her eyes and found herself in the center of therge hall. The sky outside was dark so the time setting in this training room should be at nighttime.
"I should try to find Little Xue and Silly ck first before trying to find the key." Bing Yi thought for a while and murmured her decision.
Bing Yi climbed the stairs and sneakily peeked from above the building. She managed to see Gan Aomiao walked timidly while looking at her right and left at the courtyard.
"So... only Gan Aomiao? I don''t mean to look down on her, but her divine ability ispletely useless in this kind of situation. She will only be a burden to me if we are together." Bing Yi shook her head in disappointment, but she still decided to meet with Gan Aomiao in the end.
Bing Yi got down from the stairs and went out from therge hall through the gate. She ran towards the courtyard where she saw Gan Aomiao.
Strangely, she failed to find Gan Aomiao even after she searched around the courtyard for a few minutes.
"Why I can''t find her? Where is she going?" Bing Yi tapped her chin with her finger while thinking.
However, Bing Yi frowned deeply when she realized there was something strange with her shadow under the moonlight.
She actually has two shadows under her feet!
Bing Yi swiftly turned her body and looked around, but she failed to find anything strange!
Bing Yi looked downward at her shadow again, and she still saw someone shadow stood behind her shadow!
Bing Yi did not hesitate to activate her [Freezing Field], but before she could do that...
BBBBAAAAAAANGGGG~!!!
Crack... Crack... Crack... Crack... Crack...
Something hard heavily hit her spine and shattered many of her bones. It even fatally injured many of her internal organs.
Bing Yi passed out before she even had the time to see who attacked her. She actually failed to sense that there was someone stealthy stood behind her!
"Sigh... what a disappointment! I have already stood behind you since a few minutes ago, but you still failed to notice my presence. Two down, four more to go!" The familiar gentle female voice entered Bing Yi''s ears before shepletely lost her consciousness.
Chapter 196 - 196: Upgrade!
Chapter 196 - 196: Upgrade!
.....
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy kept wandering around the pce and search for the key, but both of them met with countless traps along their way.
BAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
The floor below Tang Li Xue''s feet vanished, and Tang Li Xue''s body plunged down into the dark hole, but she did not panic at all.
She canceled her [Ethereal form] and used her [Energy Maniption] to create a long rope with a grappling hook in an instant.
She swiftly threw it above on one side of the wall, and the grappling hook end stuck on it.
Tang Li Xue climbed back up using the long rope and jumped out of the dark hole.
''Sigh... this [Energy Maniption] is really convenient! I should train more often on using this [Energy Maniption], so I can raise my proficiency in using it faster.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and activated her [Ethereal form] again.
Tang Li Xue could avoid most of the traps with her [Ethereal form] such asndmines or hidden arrows, but this kind of trap hole that disappeared randomly still kept giving her a huge headache.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s copy managed to meet with Hei Yinghao in the imperial kitchen.
"Silly Fox, what are you doing in the dining room? Searching for food?" Tang Li Xue''s copy rolled her eyes to Hei Yinghao.
"Xue! Uh... no, actually, I wanted to search the gatekeeper room first to find the key, but I got lost and ended up here." Hei Yinghao blushed and tried to exin.
Tang Li Xue''s copy thought that Hei Yinghao''s n made sense. Rather than searching blindly like this, it was better if they have a clear destination.
Tang Li Xue''s copy peeked at the map made by her [Mapping] skill in her mind and saw only some ces on the map that were already uncovered.
Imperial Kitchen, Imperial Study, Royal Dining Room, Hall of Ancestry Worship, Pce of Tranquility...
In short, they did not even know where the gate to the outside, so how could they find where the gatekeeper room.
"What a headache! Let''s try to upgrade this [Mapping] skill first then... It''s already at the Mastered level for quite a long time. I hope it will be more useful!" Tang Li Xue murmured while rubbing her forehead.
[Mapping skill already reached the Mastered level. Do you want to upgrade it to Mapping Sense with cost 10 Skill Points?]
"Ten Skill Points?! That''s pretty expensive! Aren''t it usually only need 3 skill points to upgrade any skills?" Tang Li Xueined.
''Should I use 10 Skill Points to upgrade it or not? And... here I even already spent 79 Skill Points yesterday!'' Tang Li Xue thought for a few moments before gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
''YES!''
[Mapping ability upgraded to Mapping Sense ability!]
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and delight after she understood the [Mapping Sense]''s true ability.
This [Mapping Sense] ability did not have any different from the previous [Mapping] skill, but it allowed Tang Li Xue to ce a single tracker onto whatever she wanted!
For example, if Tang Li Xue ced her tracker onto Hei Yinghao right now and made him wandering to the ce where she never visited before, then the nk ce in Tang Li Xue''s map inside her mind will be uncovered too!
Then what if Tang Li Xue ced her tracker onto Instructor Mei Lan before the game started?
This [Mapping Sense] was surely a cheating ability to y hide and seek!
She could even stalk anyone easily with this [Mapping Sense]!
Tang Li Xue sucked a deep breath and kept blinking her eyes in astonishment as she thought: ''It''s really worth it! No, this skill should worth more than 10 Skill Points!''
Tang Li Xue immediately urged her perfect copy to test this [Mapping Sense] by putting the tracker onto Hei Yinghao''s body.
It seems she needs to make physical contact to put the tracker onto the target, so Tang Li Xue''s copy grabbed Hei Yinghao''s arm and put her tracker onto him.
Hei Yinghao immediately blushed as his face turned red like a prawn because Tang Li Xue''s copy was suddenly holding his arm.
''So I can only put the tracker on the ce where I touch? Since I only touched Silly Fox''s sleeve, I can only put the tracker on his clothes? Doesn''t it mean the tracker will be useless if he changed his clothester?'' Tang Li Xue thought for a while and told her perfect copy to touch Hei Yinghao''s palm.
Hei Yinghao blushed even deeper when Tang Li Xue''s copy holding his palm, but he did not refuse it and even grasped the copy''s palm tighter.
Tang Li Xue''s hand was so soft and smooth, the warmness of her slender fingers transferred to Hei Yinghao''s palm, made his heart beating so hard that he felt suffocating, but his mind waspletely filled with the euphoric feeling.
Tang Li Xue''s copy pulled her hand away from Hei Yinghao''s grasp. Actually, she only needs to brush her target''s skin a bit to put her tracker, but she did not know about it before, that was why she held Hei Yinghao''s palm tightly.
Hei Yinghao felt a bit disappointed when Tang Li Xue''s copy pulled her hand away from his grasp, but he was still feeling really happy in his heart.
Tang Li Xue realized that after her copy put the second tracker on Hei Yinghao''s palm, the first tracker she put on his clothes had vanished.
"Silly Fox, can you see something strange on your palm?" Tang Li Xue''s copy asked Hei Yinghao curiously.
Hei Yinghao observed both of his palms for a few seconds, but he did not notice anything strange, while Tang Li Xue could see a ck symbol on his right palm clearly.
"I don''t see anything strange on my palm. Let me look at your palm!" Hei Yinghao smiled from ear to ear and shamelessly asked to hold Tang Li Xue''s hand again.
Tang Li Xue''s copy rolled her eyes at him and said: "Let''s split up so we can find the key faster! I will go toward the east, so you can go toward the west!"
Tang Li Xue''s copy did not wait to hear Hei Yinghao''s answer and sprinted away from him.
Hei Yinghao did not have any time to react before Tang Li Xue''s copy vanished from his view since he would never think Tang Li Xue would suggest them to split up after they gathered.
"Woman''s heart is really hard to predict. First, she held my hand intimately. Then she abandoned me like this. Sigh... By the way, which way is the west again?" Hei Yinghao scratched his head in confusion while looking at right and left.
.....
...
.
The real Tang Li Xue was still searching for the key around the Military Hall, but she failed to find even any clue about the key whereabouts.
Tang Li Xue peeked at Hei Yinghao''s current location with her [Mapping Sense] and realized that he was heading her way now.
''This Silly Fox! Didn''t I already say that he can go to the west?! Why is he heading to the north now?!'' Tang Li Xue pursed her pinkish lips in annoyance.
''Eh? He stopped?'' Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise when Hei Yinghao''s direction turned erratic for a few moments.
However, he began to head toward her again after more than one minute.
Tang Li Xue felt something was not right since Hei Yinghao was heading toward her faster and faster.
Tang Li Xue decided to resummon her perfect copy back and use it to check Hei Yinghao''s condition.
Tang Li Xue''s copy came out from the Military Hall and stepped into the big courtyard outside the hall.
''Eh? There is no one here?'' Tang Li Xue''s copy frowned a bit and checked the map inside her mind.
''This is really strange! ording to the map, he should be here already!'' Tang Li Xue''s copy raised her vignce to the maximum when her [Spirit Perception] kept giving her a faint warning of danger.
''ABOVE!''
Tang Li Xue''s copy tilted her head upward and saw a sh of the shadow moving toward her with lightning speed!
BBBBAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s copy created a thick white shield with her [Energy Maniption], but she still failed to block the powerful strike from the attacker!
The thick white shield shattered into countless tiny pieces.
Tang Li Xue''s copy tried to turn her body to dodge the strike that aiming at her chest, but the attacker instantly adjusted the strike''s trajectory and hit Tang Li Xue''s stomach.
The copy''s body flung backward for several meters before crashed onto the solid wall and embedded deep into it!
"Not bad! Among the six, only you and that ck one could sense me and defend against my first attack." Instructor Mei Lan giggled whileplemented Tang Li Xue''s copy.
Tang Li Xue''s copy coughed out several mouthfuls of blood as she struggled to get out of the hole in the wall.
Actually, this powerful strike would surely knock out Tang Li Xue''s copy in one attack if she did not have all of her new skills such as: [Increase Evasion], [Decrease Reaction-Time], [Sharpen Mind], [Calction], and [Prediction].
''My shield should have reduced the attack power of that strike by more than half, but it still wounded me this badly. The destructive power of the [Demonic Tune]''s vibration is really so great!'' Tang Li Xue''s copy spat out the blood in her mouth and stared back at Instructor Mei Lan.
Copy Start!
Name: Demonic Tune
Type: Divine Ability
Copy Completed!
''Let''s see if I can try to use this [Demonic Tune] as good as she is!'' Tang Li Xue'' wiped the blood on her lips, but she painted her pinkish lips with the crimson blood color instead.
Chapter 197 - 197: Instructor Mei Lans Terrifying Deduction!
Chapter 197 - 197: Instructor Mei Lan''s Terrifying Deduction!
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy dashed toward Instructor Mei Lan to attack back, but Instructor Mei Lan rose her hand signaled Tang Li Xue to stop.
Tang Li Xue''s copy halted her step and stared at Instructor Mei Lan in puzzlement.
"Do you know why I can track you until here?" Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as always and asked Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s copy blinked and blinked again as her mind turned nk.
"Eh? Why? Uh... don''t tell me that Silly Fox said something about me to you?" Tang Li Xue''s copy asked in bewilderment.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and began to exin: "You appeared first at one of the bedrooms in the Pce of Tranquility. You ransacked everything in that room but failed to find anything. You did not check the other bedrooms in the Pce of Tranquility and decided to split up with your copy from there."
"You and your copy headed straight to the Hall of Ancestry Worship and the Imperial Study. You tried to find any clue about the key''s whereabouts there but still failed to find anything, so one of you decided to go to the Royal Dining Room and met with the ck one at the Imperial Kitchen. However, you decided to split up with the ck one again and heading to the east. Am I right?" Instructor Mei Lan raised her eyebrows and asked for Tang Li Xue''s confirmation.
Both of Tang Li Xue and her copy dropped their jaw in shock and murmured in disbelief: "How... How did you know all of that?!"
Instructor Mei Lan giggled and exined again: "First, you did not close the door again after you open it. Second, you did not even tidy the first room you messed up. Third, all the traps you triggered was really clear for me to see. I even know that you used a grappling hook to jump out from the trap hole."
''Damn! Instructor Lan is really scarily smart!'' Tang Li Xue and her copy shuddered slightly.
The smile on Instructor Mei Lan immediately vanished, and her face turned solemn as she lectured Tang Li Xue: "The point is you must cover your trace carefully if you don''t want other people to know."
"But look at you! You tried to cover your secret from everyone but you leave your trace all over the ce! Are you an idiot or what?!" Instructor Mei Lan pointed her index finger to Tang Li Xue and scold her harshly.
Tang Li Xue''s copy tilted her head in confusion because she still did not understand what Instructor Mei Lan means.
"Sigh... so you still don''t get what I mean? Okay, I will point it out for you more clearly. You escaped from the Asura Demon Sect together with the winged lizard from Lizard n before, right?" Instructor Mei Lan squinted her eyes and asked Tang Li Xue.
This incident was a big one, so almost all the famous sects or Beast Races knew about this.
Of course, it was also because Mo Chonglin twisted out the story ording to his preference and told everyone that the winged lizard was the one that killed the previous patriarch before it escaped from Asura Demon Sect.
Mo Chonglin even offered the exorbitant prize to anyone who could offer the information about the winged lizard, so many people paid more attention to the news about the winged lizard, but Mo Chonglin''s true motive was that he actually wanted to catch the winged lizard back.
Instructor Mei Lan did not tell Tang Li Xue about this because she did not want to make Tang Li Xue worry. That winged lizard was already in the Lizard Race''s home anyway, so nobody could touch it anymore.
If Fox Race was known as the most beautiful race, then the Lizard Race was known as the most arrogant and overbearing race since they always thought they were the true dragon''s descendants.
ording to Instructor Mei Lan''s spection, it would not be long before the Lizard Race will retaliate against the Asura Demon Sect.
Tang Li Xue''s body trembled violently this time after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words. Tang Li Xue''s copy stared at Instructor Mei Lan with eyes full of fear and disbelief.
"You got that little fairy''s egg on your way to our trial''s ce. No, to be more precise, you actually robbed the egg from the Twin-Saber Gang and the Wen Family''s people. You and that winged lizard took a few days detour to avoid the rage of that fairy''s mother but identally met with Bi Fang from Firebird n and help it to defeat the Baihui Kingdom''s armies. So far there are no problems with your background but the main problem lies ahead after this..." Instructor Mei Lan kept staring at Tang Li Xue''s expression to judge her reaction.
''Holysh*t!!! This Instructor Mei Lan... She disappeared for several days not toplete her mission but to investigate about me?!'' Tang Li Xue''s face turned pale in an instant when she realized this fact.
Again... this incident was also not a small one!
After Tang Li Xue took Yaya under her wings, Yaya''s mother was searching everywhere about her egg''s whereabouts and nearly uprooted several big forces in Lightwind Continent!
Twin-Saber Gang was not a big force and only a group ofwless bandits, but Wen Family was different!
Wen Family was one of the most reputable cultivator families in the Lightwind Continent!
Of course, the ones who fought against the Twin-Saber Gang for the egg were only from the insignificant branch of the Wen Family.
However, Yaya''s mother came knocking to the front gate of the Wen Family''s main headquarter and ughter almost everyone there!
This news was an earth-shattering one! The usual peace-loving elemental spirit was actually started to ughter everyone she saw mindlessly!
All the big forces in Lightwind Continent was drowned in panic and anxiousness, afraid if the cruel elemental spirit woulde knocking their door today or tomorrow, so they moved swiftly and tried to find out the reason behind it.
It did not take them long to know that the elemental spirit was in fact, searching for her missing egg!
It was not hard to find out where the missing egg was, because the group which consisting of the wanted Winged Lizard, savage beast-rank silver fox, and a tiny green fairy was so conspicuous to anyone.
"There was a Divine Treasure''s birth phenomenon at the Zhuhong Volcano one or two months ago. I wonder if you know about this?" Instructor Mei Lan sneered at Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan''s words were like thunder that shattered Tang Li Xue''s mind. Tang Li Xue''s thoughts turnedpletely nk when she heard it.
If the previous two news were an appetizer, then this news about Divine Treasure''s birth was the main headlines!
It did not only made all the big forces and Beast Race turned crazy with greed, even the other big forces from other continents had already begun to reaching out their hands to obtain this Divine Treasure!
Tang Li Xue did not know what to say as if she turned mute, but she still instinctively shook her head vigorously to deny it.
"Then why you and that winged lizard friend of yours came from that Zhuhong Volcano''s direction?" Instructor Mei Lanughed at Tang Li Xue''s reaction.
Tang Li Xue could no longer bear Instructor Mei Lan''s interrogation so decided to believe Instructor Mei Lan once more and admit it.
With Instructor Mei Lan''s intelligence, she would surely already deduce that the Divine Treasure was in Tang Li Xue''s hand or Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s hand.
So Tang Li Xue immediately exined: "Instructor Lan... Honestly, the Divine Treasure is in my hand but I can''t give it to anyone anymore now. It''s futile even if I ask me about it because... that Divine Treasure is already merged with my body!"
"I already know that." Instructor Mei Lan answered with a leisure tone and giggled at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue almost stumbled forward and nted her face onto the ground when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s light answer.
"I was there when you evolved into a Demonic Beast before. Remember? From your abnormal phenomenon, I connected it with all the clues about you and deduced everything. That''s why I told you that you are an idiot! Because you tried to hide your head, but you forgot to hide your tail!" Instructor Mei Lan pouted and scolded Tang Li Xue again.
"You tried to hide the fact that you have the Divine Treasure, but you leave your trace all over the ce for everyone to find! It was alright if no one saw your evolution phenomenon but everyone in Myriad Foxes Academy already saw it! It will only take them a few minutes to connect it with the Divine Treasure''s phenomenon and figure something out!" Instructor Mei Lan gritted her teeth while exining.
Tang Li Xue interrupted Instructor Mei Lan''s words and tried to defend herself: "Instructor Lan... uh... Okay, my evolution phenomenon was abnormal, but the evolution phenomenon to spirit beast must be even greater, right?!"
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and exined: "The spirit beast''s evolution phenomenon certainly has a greater effect, but it''s because of the appearance of Spirit Blessing. There was no Spirit Blessing in your evolution phenomenon, so anyone with enough knowledge could judge that your evolution phenomenon was not the spirit beast one."
The main reason was that no beast has enough power to support such an abnormal phenomenon unless they have a precious item like Divine Treasure to help them.
But this deduction was still far too iplete!
In fact, it was actually impossible to make such an abnormal phenomenon unless they have Divine Treasure like [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] to support the Yang side, a huge [Crystal Moon Gem] and many Moonlight Mushrooms to support the Yin side, and of course, the most important element which put everything in perfect equilibrium... THE SYSTEM!
Tang Li Xue''s heart sank when she heard it and she panicked.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled when she saw Tang Li Xue''s anxious expression.
Actually, the situation was not as bad as what Tang Li Xue has thought since no one knows who evolved at that night other than Instructor Mei Lan.
While the reason for why Instructor Mei Lan was able to deduce all of these almost immediately was because she knew that the one who evolved that night was Tang Li Xue.
It was also because Instructor Mei Lan had already seen Tang Li Xue''s Golden Winged Serpent and Deep Blue Phoenix along with that two moons and one sun.
But with all the clues Tang Li Xue had left previously on her way, anyone with Instructor Mei Lan''s intelligence could trace it back to her!
That was also the reason why Instructor Mei Lan left the Myriad Foxes Academy in a hurry at the night after Tang Li Xue finished her evolution process.
Instructor Mei Lan helped Tang Li Xue carefully erased all of those clues and traces!
There were many ways to do that, such as: leaving many false clues, spreading around several versions of fake news, etc.
All of these were Instructor Mei Lan''s area of expertise so of course, she could do it wlessly.
But Instructor Mei Lan was still very surprised after finding out about what kind of troubles that her student had made before entered Myriad Foxes Academy.
Now they could only hope that no one started the investigation and already gathered all clues about this first before Instructor Mei Lan could erase all of those clues and traces.
"Now you know how to be afraid?" Instructor Mei Lanughed at Tang Li Xue''s nervous and anxious expression.
"But you are still very lucky to put your trust in me that night, so I can erase all the clues and traces about you in time. It''s impossible for the outsider to trace everything back to you because they did not see your evolution phenomenon but all the foxes from this Myriad Foxes Academy were different. All of them saw your evolution phenomenon that night." Instructor Mei Lan exined to Tang Li Xue again.
Tang Li Xue''s gloomy face brightened like a blooming flower after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
Now, she finally knew that her Instructor Mei Lan had actually helped her to cover her mistakes!
Tang Li Xue was so touched, and her eyes became teary.
" Instructor Lan... Thank you very much!" Tang Li Xue bowed her head to Instructor Mei Lan full of gratitude and respect.
Instructor Mei Lan blushed, and she became really embarrassed by Tang Li Xue''s sincere attitude.
She told Tang Li Xue about all of these was not to gain Tang Li Xue''s trust, gratitude, or respect but so that Tang Li Xue did not repeat her mistake again in the future.
Besides, Instructor Mei Lan felt it was her job as their teacher to do all of those.
But for Tang Li Xue who only have a handful of people she trusted, this favor was simply too great for her to ept.
"Okay, this is enough! Let''s continue with our business!" Instructor Mei Lan waved her hand to disperse the strange atmosphere between them, and her expression turned back to solemn.
"Eh? What? We are still going to fight?" Tang Li Xue raised her head and asked Instructor Mei Lan with a strange tone.
"Of course, we are still going to fight! Not only we are going to fight, but I also want you to go all out this time! I want to see all of your power!" Instructor Mei Lan''s lips curved upward in excitement.
"Eh? Eeeehhhhh? What?! Going all out?" Tang Li Xue stared at Instructor Mei Lan in puzzlement and asked.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes to Tang Li Xue and said: "I already knew all of your secrets, are you still going to lie to me? Do you think I don''t recognize that blue me from 7 Earthly Desire Spirits?"
Tang Li Xue smiled in embarrassment and replied: "Instructor Lan, that deep blue me is very dangerous. I am afraid I will hurt you with that."
Instructor Mei Lanughed out loud when she heard Tang Li Xue''s reply.
"Do you think I already fight all of you seriously all this time? If I am serious, I can kill all of you with only one snap of my fingers!" Instructor Mei Lan sneered at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was still staring at Instructor Mei Lan skeptically and asked: "Then how much percent of the power did you use when you fought against all of us before?"
Instructor Mei Lan did not answer Tang Li Xue''s question. She only smiled gently as usual and raised five of her fingers.
Chapter 198 - 198: All Out Battle, War Goddess Mode!
Chapter 198 - 198: All Out Battle, War Goddess Mode!
"Fifty percent?" Tang Li Xue asked, but she felt a bit disappointed.
If Instructor Mei Lan already used fifty percent of her overall strength then Tang Li Xue could surely win against Instructor Mei Lan if she went all out.
However, Instructor Mei Lan shook her head.
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in disbelief and shock as she took a few steps backward from Instructor Mei Lan.
"It''s less than 5%. So you don''t need to worry about identally hurt me." Instructor Mei Lan confirmed Tang Li Xue''s guess.
Instructor Mei Lanughed at Tang Li Xue''s stunned expression, and she shouted: " Sparring Room Number 2391, granted permission to enter the Training Mode: Trap House!"
Not long after Instructor Mei Lan shouted, Yaya appeared out of nowhere in front of them.
Yaya looked around in confusion, but her emerald green eyes brightened up when she saw Tang Li Xue.
Yaya immediately jumped toward Tang Li Xue and hugged her neck while giggling happily.
"Instructor Lan?" Tang Li Xue looked at Instructor Mei Lan in puzzlement.
"As I said before, I want to see you go all out. So I want you to use your blue me of the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits along with your [Divine Possession] with this little one! Use everything at your disposal to fight me without holding anything back!" Instructor Mei Lan said with a solemn tone as the gentle smile on her facepletely vanished.
Overbearing momentum exploded out from Instructor Mei Lan''s slender body after she said everything she wanted to say.
The powerful momentum was rolling out wave after wave made Tang Li Xue''s copy slit backward several meters.
Tang Li Xue also knew that Instructor Mei Lan was very serious this time.
She clearly wanted to test the limit of Tang Li Xue''s true strength after Tang Li Xue evolved into [Umon] grade demonic beast today.
Tang Li Xue knew she could not turn down Instructor Mei Lan''s request this time since Instructor Mei Lan already knew almost all of her secrets. Of course, her system was the only exception.
Tang Li Xue inhaled deeply and used [Swap] to exchange her position with her copy.
[Swap]: The user exchanged the position with the copy.
But Tang Li Xue was still in a big dilemma right now.
Tang Li Xue could still use the me of Pride even without the Blue Phoenix of Pride''s help, but the effect would be very limited, and the firepower will also not very high.
''Oh well... at least I can try to the power of my current me of Pride right now! Yaya! Let''s enter [Divine Possession] form!'' Tang Li Xue told Yaya with the connection in their mind.
Yaya nodded to Tang Li Xue and turned into a green light then entered Tang Li Xue''s forehead.
Who knows that after Yaya initiated the [Divine Possession] with Tang Li Xue, the blue Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian woken up and screeching in anger as if Yaya took its personal space or something like that.
''Why are you angry now when you always sleep all the time? Okay, since you are wake up now then help me to fight!'' Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes to the blue Phoenix of Pride''s arrogant attitude.
BWOOOOOOSSSSHHHH~!!!
The deep-blue me mixed with dark-gold color exploded out from Tang Li Xue''s body along with a violent windstorm!
The deep-blue me mixed with the windstorm and grew bigger and bigger until they became an enormous pir of deep-blue me!
Even Instructor Mei Lan''s powerful momentum waspletely dispersed by the extremely high-temperature of deep-blue me which melted everything without touching it!
Then the enormous pir of deep-blue me changed its shape into the giant phoenix!
SCREEEEEEECCCCHHHH~~!!!
The giant deep-blue phoenix cried loudly before it sucked into Tang Li Xue''s body!
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her eyes.
The color of her right eye changed into deep-blue color with the dark-gold color at the center.
While the color of her left eye changed into the glittering emerald green.
The four pairs of beautiful crystal-like fairy wings sprouted from Tang Li Xue''s back.
Tang Li Xue also wore a silver tiara decorated with many glittering green emeralds on the top of her head.
Her slender body was covered by the extremely high-temperature deep-blue mes as if she was wearing the gorgeous dress condensed from the deep-blue me!
Tang Li Xue entered the same state as the first time when she was doing her first [Divine Possession] with Yaya.
At that time the gentle wind power and the overbearing me power blended perfectly in her body.
But now it waspletely different!
The gentle wind power already evolved into the destructive windstorm, which powerful enough to wreak havoc everything!
The overbearing me power also already merged with the tiny bit of Sun Dragon me and evolved into something unimaginably powerful, which surpassed all themon sense!
The two elemental spirits were still hostile towards each other as usual, but strangely, the fire and wind elementals could still perfectly blend in harmony like Yin and Yang.
Each of these elemental spirits was already crazily powerful, but now, thebination of these fire and wind elementals strengthen themselves even more.
Previously, their strength was still too low, so theirbination was like ten times ten which equals one hundred.
But now, each of these elemental spirits already has the strength one hundred or even two or three hundred, so the current strength of theirbination was hard to estimate!
Tang Li Xue also felt something different from the usual [Divine Possession] right now.
It was as if she, Yaya, and the blue Phoenix of Pride did not merelybine their strength butpletely merged into one entity!
Ding!
[The user has entered perfect synchronization with Yaya and Phoenix of Pride!]
[War Goddess Mode duration: 00:03:00]
Tang Li Xue looked at the system log and widened her eyes in shock and disbelief.
''Perfect... synchronization? War Goddess Mode?! Woah! So awesome! So this is the true power of our newbined strength!'' Tang Li Xue giggled happily.
Actually, Tang Li Xue could still improve her strength even further by merging with her [Twin Moons]''s perfect copy.
[Merge]: Merge the copy with the user''s body. Doubled the user''s status for 1 hour! (The copy needs to be sacrificed to activate this ability.)
But if she used this [Merge] skill, then she will need to sacrifice her perfect copy, and she would need to take the moonlight bath for 9 nights to recover it back.
While she needs her perfect copy to inscribe many talismans every day for her to sell since she used all of her time to train the [Art of Concealment] and continue to improve her cultivation.
"Instructor Lan, are you sure about this?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan again while grasped her fist tighter.
She felt her body was filled with incredible power, and she could crush everything she wanted.
"Are you sure you want to waste your time like this? I know you could not maintain that powerful form for long, right? Come!" Instructor Mei Lan sneered at Tang Li Xue and put her battle stance.
However, Tang Li Xue''s slender figure instantly vanished from Instructor Mei Lan''s view.
Instructor Mei Lan would never believe that Tang Li Xue could move fast enough that she could not see Tang Li Xue''s movements at all, so the only answer was the teleport-type skill!
Instructor Mei Lan''s guess waspletely correct because Tang Li Xue had used her [Shadow sh] to teleport onto Instructor Mei Lan''s shadow!
Tang Li Xue close the gap between them in an instant, and she never nned to fight a long and arduous battle with Instructor Mei Lan since she only has less than 3 minutes to defeat Instructor Mei Lan before her [War Goddess Mode] wears off.
Tang Li Xue did not hold back her strength at all. She waved her palm downward while using her [Sun Dragon w]!
A huge dragon w condensed from the extremely high-temperature deep-blue me swung down toward Instructor Mei Lan!
Tang Li Xue saw Instructor Mei Lan did not panic at all but instead smiled at her before she snapped her finger.
BBBBOOOOOOMMMMM~~!!!
The huge dragon w did not only destroy the stony road but also evaporated everything it touched into nothingness!
''She vanished too?!'' Tang Li Xue became rmed when she saw Instructor Mei Lan suddenly disappeared from her view.
Tang Li Xue thought Instructor Mei Lan would use her [Demonic Tune]''s vibration to destroy her attack like usual, but she was wrong because Instructor Mei Lan knew she could not destroy Tang Li Xue''s attack so easily this time.
Tang Li Xue immediately pushed her [Spirit Perception] and [Five Senses Enhancement] to the maximum to find Instructor Mei Lan''s whereabouts.
''Dammit! Instructor Mei Lan''s mastery over [Art of Concealment] is already so much more profound than mine!'' Tang Li Xue thought.
With Yaya''s ability to sense the surrounding wind flow, Tang Li Xue managed to detect Instructor Mei Lan''s whereabouts as if the wind itself told her about Instructor Mei Lan''s location.
With speed enhancement of [Extreme Speed], Tang Li Xue easily dodged Instructor Mei Lan''s sneak attack and even used another [Sun Dragon w] to counterattack!
Instructor Mei Lan snapped her fingers again and vanished once again from Tang Li Xue''s view before appearing ten meters away from Tang Li Xue.
BBBBOOOOOOMMMMM~~!!!
The huge dragon w failed to hit Instructor Mei Lan''s body and only destroyed the stony road below Tang Li Xue''s feet.
"So you are only at this level? Come on! At least, show me something more interesting!" Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as usual and provoked Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue smiled back at Instructor Mei Lan and said: "Don''t worry, Instructor Lan! This is only warming up. Please be really careful from now on, because I am going to get a bit more serious!"
Chapter 199 - 199: High-Speed Battle, Wind VS Sound!
Chapter 199 - 199: High-Speed Battle, Wind VS Sound!
Tang Li Xue began to p her four pairs of beautiful crystal-like fairy wings on her back, and her slender figure was hovering in mid-air.
''I have wanted to try this since a few days ago...'' Tang Li Xue thought while smiling in excitement.
[Sun Dragon w]... plus... [Energy Maniption]!!!
BWOOOOOSSSSSHHHH~~!!!
The dense amount of deep-blue me exploded out from Tang Li Xue''s body, and it began to condense into two giant dragon ws.
DIfferent from the usual [Sun Dragon w] which will disappear after one attack, these two giant dragon ws made from the condensation of both divine abilities will not disappear as long as Tang Li Xue still supplied them with her energies.
The disadvantage and advantage were clear.
The disadvantage was that it will consume her energies continuously, but she only has 2 more minutes in her [War Goddess Mode] anyway so this did not matter much.
The advantage was that she could use this pair of giant dragon ws to defend and attack at the same time while engaging in the high-speed battle without any dy to condense it like when she used the [Sun Dragon w] divine ability alone.
[Extreme Speed]... plus... [High-Speed Flight]... plus... [Blink]... plus... [Gale Step]!
Tang Li Xue''s figure vanished from Instructor Mei Lan''s view only leaving behind many of her afterimages to confuse Instructor Mei Lan!
''Her speed increased several times again?!'' Instructor Mei Lan frowned as her rxed expression turned a bit solemn.
Instructor Mei Lan snapped her fingers again and teleported several meters away. She was trying to keep her distance with Tang Li Xue.
''Hum... so it is the teleportation ability but the range based on the sound she makes?!'' Tang Li Xue started to understand Instructor Mei Lan''s ability.
For example, when Instructor Mei Lan made the sound by snapping her fingers, the sound she made will be spreading around in the form of a dome, and she could teleport anywhere in that dome domain made by her sound.
''Then we will see which one is faster! My speed or your teleportation?!'' Tang Li Xue thought whileughed softly.
BOOOOOOMMM~~!!! BOOOOOOMMM~~!!! BOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
Instructor Mei Lan started to teleport around to keep her distance from Tang Li Xue, while Tang Li Xue was using her [Spirit Perception] and her [Wind God''s Eyes] to predict Instructor Mei Lan''s movements.
[Wind God''s Eyes]: Eyes that capable of seeing through any kind of movement no matter how fast it is and predicting the next few moves urately.
Every time Instructor Mei Lan teleported, Tang Li Xue was already there waiting for her and smashed down her huge dragon w toward her!
It was like ying Whack-A-Mole, but Tang Li Xue could already see where it will appear next ahead of time.
Instructor Mei Lan started to get cornered by Tang Li Xue, while Tang Li Xue started to get used to Instructor Mei Lan''s movement more and more.
Tang Li Xue''s emerald green right eye was glittering brightly under the effect of [Wind God''s Eyes].
"There!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she pped both of her hands. The pair of huge dragon ws followed her movement and pped toward where Instructor Mei Lan appeared.
Who knows that Instructor Mei Lan did not try to dodge anymore but pped her hands too!
Tang Li Xue saw a faint smile on Instructor Mei Lan''s face and thought: ''Oh, no! Don''t tell me she is deliberately baiting me all this time?!''
BBBAAAAAAAANNNNNNNGGG~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s huge dragon ws shed violently with Instructor Mei Lan''s vibration attack from her [Demonic Tune]!
However, Instructor Mei Lan mixed her other divine ability into her sound attack this time!
[Heavenly Sound]! Which amplified the volume of the sound she made by many times!
The extremely loud sound attack struck Tang Li Xue''s eardrum andpletely stunned her mind! It even temporarily paralyzed all of the nerves in her brain!
Tang Li Xue went down on one knee while gritted her teeth in pain.
But Instructor Mei Lan was also injured by Tang Li Xue''s attack this time since Tang Li Xue also mixed another divine ability into herst attack.
Tang Li Xue secretly inserted the [Demonic Tune]''s divine ability, which she already copied from Instructor Mei Lan into her dragon ws'' attack!
Instructor Mei Lan managed to stop Tang Li Xue''s attack with her own [Demonic Tune], but Tang Li Xue''s [Demonic Tune] effect struck her in return and hurt some of her internal organs!
Instructor Mei Lan coughed a mouthful of blood, but her condition was still far better than Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan dashed toward Tang Li Xue tond the finishing blow to the paralyzed Tang Li Xue!
BWOOOOOSSSSSHHHH~~!!!
However, the tall deep-blue me''s [Fire Wall] and the fierce [Wind Barrier] swiftly protected Tang Li Xue and forced Instructor Mei Lan to stop in her tracks before she could touch Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue was still stunned by Instructor Mei Lan''s sound attack, but she did not fight alone this time! There were still Blue Phoenix of Pride and Yaya that could protect her from all harm!
It was only in an emergency situation like this that the Blue Phoenix of Pride and Yaya could put aside their discord and reach consensus!
[Fire-Wind Sword]!
Thebination of [Wind Sword] and [me Arrow] created this new skill!
More than fifty deep-blue colored [Fire-Wind Swords] with an extremely high-temperature were formed in an instant and rained down at once upon Instructor Mei Lan!
Instructor Mei Lan did not dare to tarry and snapped her fingers again to teleport away!
However, more than fifty deep-blue colored [Fire-Wind Swords] kept chasing after her relentlessly like homing missiles.
Instructor Mei Lan smashed her fist toward the ground, and the vibration attack from her [Demonic Tune] struck the fifty deep-blue colored [Fire-Wind Swords] and sent all of them flying away.
Instructor Mei Lan stared in Tang Li Xue''s direction to check if she was still stunned or not, but Tang Li Xue already vanished from where she was before!
''She is behind me?!'' Instructor Mei Lan found Tang Li Xue''s location immediately after she focused all of her senses to detect everything around her.
[Gale Prison]!
A giant tornado locked Instructor Mei Lan on the ce she stood, but unfortunately, it could not prevent her from teleporting away.
Instructor Mei Lan snapped her fingers and teleported away like usual, but she did not realize that Tang Li Xue was actually only baiting her too this time.
The [Gale Prison] was only to cover her trace while the Tang Li Xue who stood behind Instructor Mei Lan was only a [Wind Clone]!
''Let''s see if you can repel this super [Fire Bomb] that Ipressed to the extreme!'' Tang Li Xue''s huge dragon ws were holding a dark-blue ball as big as a ser ball and threw it with all of her strength toward Instructor Mei Lan''s direction!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM~~!!!
Tang Li Xue did not see clearly if her superpressed [Fire Bomb] managed to hit Instructor Mei Lan or not, but the devastating explosion destroyed everything in that pce and made everything copsed into nothingness.
Even Tang Li Xue herself did not spare and blew away several tens of meters backward.
Fortunately, the deep-blue me with its extremely high temperature from Blue Phoenix of Pride could not hurt Tang Li Xue at all or she would probably already turn into roasted fox even with her extremely high fire resistance.
Now Tang Li Xue started to regret using this move and felt really worried about Instructor Mei Lan''s safety.
"Hm... Not bad! No, you are really strong! At first, I don''t even think that you can push me this far! Now... I am starting to look forward to see more from you, so don''t disappoint me!" The gentle voice and giggle echoed from behind the sea of deep-blue mes.
Instructor Mei Lan''s figure was slowly hovering up in a leisure manner from inside the sea of deep-blue mes.
Instructor Mei Lan was stillpletely unhurt even after received Tang Li Xue''s super powerful [Fire Bomb].
The extremely hot deep-blue me tried to touch Instructor Mei Lan''s slender figure, but it failed to even get closer to her as the air around her started to fluctuate and rippling.
"What the hell is that?! An invisible armor? The armor created from sound? No, it should be created from the air vibration? Holysh*t! The vibration armor?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in shock as she waspletely stunned by the ability Instructor Mei Lan used.
"There is no limit on how we can use our divine abilities. Everything is possible as long as we kept raising our proficiency in using it. The limit only exists in our imagination. Did you know this proverb? The Human Race is using 100 weapons and 100 Martial Arts to deal with 100 different kinds of situations, but we Beast Races are using 1 divine ability to deal with 100 different kinds of situations." Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently and exined.
"Just like my [Demonic Tune], there are many ways on how to use vibration. This armor is only one of them. I can even use them like this!" Instructor Mei Lan pointed her index finger toward Tang Li Xue.
The distance between Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue was more than fifty meters right now, but...
PUUUFFF~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder was bleeding as if an invisible sword stabbed only her flesh and prated through her back!
''She can create more than fifty meters long sword made from vibration in an instant?!''Tang Li Xue coughed out a mouthful of blood but the surprise in her heart made herpletely forget about her wound and pain.
"This is not a skill or divine ability. I created it myself from the vibration made from the [Demonic Tune]. I called it, [Vibration Construct]." Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently like always while exining her own ability to Tang Li Xue.
Chapter 200 - 200: Tang Li Xues Strongest Attack!
Chapter 200 - 200: Tang Li Xue''s Strongest Attack!
"Vibration... Construct?" Tang Li Xue mumbled in a daze.
This [Vibration Construct] was almost identical with Tang Li Xue''s [Energy Maniption], but the things created from this [Vibration Construct] wasing from Instructor Mei Lan''s mastery over her [Demonic Tune]''s vibration, just like how Tang Li Xue created her [Sun Dragon w] and [Fire-Wind Sword].
''So everyone can condense anything from their divine abilities if their mastery reached a certain threshold? Doesn''t it mean my [Energy Maniption] is useless? Tsk, oh well... I will think about thister...'' Tang Li Xue shook her head to shove away all the distractions in her mind.
Tang Li Xue peeked at her [War Goddess Mode] duration to know how long it willst and realized that she only has less than thirty seconds to defeat Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue inhaled deeply and warned Instructor Mei Lan with a solemn expression: "Instructor Lan, my time is not much anymore, so I will go all out now! Please be careful!"
"Hoo? You still have more powerful skills? All right! You can bring it all out and throw them to me!" Instructor Mei Lanughed and waved her palm.
As Tang Li Xue''s instructor, Instructor Mei Lan felt she have the duty to teach Tang Li Xue all about her abilities, so she could improve her overall mastery and use all of them to the fullest in battle, but in order to do so, Instructor Mei Lan must know all about Tang Li Xue''s abilities first. That was the reason why Instructor Mei Lan urged Tang Li Xue to go all out in this battle.
Tang Li Xue waved her palm and the dragon w that hovering on her side followed her movement and shattered Instructor Mei Lan''s invisible vibration sword which stuck on her right shoulder.
Tang Li Xue activated all of her movement skills again, and her figure vanished from Instructor Mei Lan''s view!
[Extreme Speed], [High-Speed Flight], [Blink], [Gale Step], but she added one more skill now, the [Fire Dash], which propelled Tang Li Xue''s figure like a rocket!
Tang Li Xue shed her palm toward Instructor Mei Lan, and the dragon w on her side followed her movement again.
"This old trick is getting boring. Could you bring anything else?" Instructor Mei Lan said leisurely as she also waved her palm.
BBBAAAAAAAAAANGGGG~!!!
An invisible thin de made from the condensation of vibration struck Tang Li Xue''s dragon w and cut it in two!
"In the battle of condensation, the size does not matter much. No matter how big the size is, it is still useless if what you create is too brittle. You need topress your power as much as you can before condense it so your creation will be more solid and powerful. The principle is the same as when you create your firebomb." Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue while waved her other hand toward her.
The other invisible thin de condensed out in an instant and mercilessly stabbed into Tang Li Xue''s chest.
Beast Race has far more resilient bodies than Human Race, as long as their head and the beast core was still intact, they would not die. That was why Instructor Mei Lan did not worry even if she stabbed Tang Li Xue''s body several times with her invisible des.
Of course, Beast Race would also pass out if they received too many lethal injuries.
POOFFF~~!!!
Who knows that the Tang Li Xue in front of Instructor Mei Lan was not the real one but only the copy made by Yaya''s [Wind Clone] skill!
The real Tang Li Xue was already hovering behind Instructor Mei Lan and locked her target in her vision.
''Instructor Lan, I want to see if you can block this unblockable attack too!'' Tang Li Xue sneered as her deep-blue colored right eye was glowing with zing golden light like a fiery sun.
[Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes]... plus... [Final Strike]!!!
[Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] was the divine ability tobust any target in Tang Li Xue''s right eye vision regardless even if that target was hiding behind the barrier or the shield, as long as that target still in Tang Li Xue''s right eye vision, then that target will never be able to dodge, avoid, parry, or defend from her me at all!
Tang Li Xue even used her most powerful divine abilities which could bypass all form of defense in tandem with her powerful weapon skill which could amplify the damage!
Final Strike (Deal 3x damage, Critical Rate +20%, Attack Speed+ 30%. Cooldown: 1 hour.)
BBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM~~!!!
The dark-golden me burst out Instructor Mei Lan''s figure turned her into a man on fire! Even her vibration armor could not help her block Tang Li Xue''s attack this time!
The dark-golden me kept burning Instructor Mei Lan''s figure nonstop and it even became fiercer as the time passed as if it would never disperse unless its targetpletely erased into nothingness!
Tang Li Xue started to feel sorry for Instructor Mei Lan, but she also did not know how to disperse this insane dark-golden me.
Instructor Mei Lan''s burning figure pped both of her hands, and countless thin invisible sharp swords condensed in an instant.
"Wha...?!" Tang Li Xue never thought that Instructor Mei Lan still nned to attack her under that kind of situation, but it was already toote for her to dodge it all.
Tang Li Xue could only defend try to herself with [Fire Wall] and [Wind Barrier], but unfortunately, many invisible thin sharp swords could still prate all of her defense and stabbed toward her.
[Scorching Cyclone sh]!
Tang Li Xue chopped her hand downward and generated the giant deep-blue fire tornado. This was Yaya''s [Cyclone sh] but also imbued with deep-blue mes from the Phoenix of Pride!
BOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Scorching Cyclone sh] was torn apart, but it also managed to shatter all of the invisible thin sharp swords.
Instructor Mei Lan tried many ways to extinguishing the dark-gold me on her body, but nothing worked, on contrary, the me was burning fiercer and fiercer.
Instructor Mei Lan also realized something horrible from this dark-gold me.
This dark-gold me was on a different level from Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue me, which only has extremely high temperatures!
This dark-gold me was burning everything! Not only something tangible like bones and flesh but also intangible such as energies, stamina, vitality, soul, and spirit!
''What a horrible me is this!'' Instructor Mei Lan started to feel a bit panicked when she was looking at the extinguishable dark-gold me.
However, Instructor Mei Lan realized that the horrible dark-gold me on her body started to decrease bit by bit before itpletely extinguished by itself.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at where Tang Li Xue stood before and immediately know the reason for why the fierce dark-gold me extinguished by itself.
It seems their master, Tang Li Xue already fell unconscious under the bacsh of her own [War Goddess Mode] after its duration was over.
Currently, Tang Li Xue was writhing in pain, and her face was extremely pale like a piece of white paper.
Instructor Mei Lan sighed in relief. It would be bad if their fight was drawn out longer, and she was forced to use some stronger moves. Who knows if she will identally kill her own studentter if she was unlucky.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at the horrible burns on her body and looked at Tang Li Xue with eyes full of admiration. She would never believe it if someone told her a newly evolved demonic beast could do this to her before, but now this student of hers forced her to believe it.
"Unfortunately for you all, I am still winning this game." Instructor Mei Lanughed and pick Tang Li Xue''s body then threw it into her medium-rank space pouch.
"No, I am the one who wins this game!" The sweet luscious voice entered Instructor Mei Lan''s ears as the surrounding scene distorted, and they went back to the sparring room.
"You? Are you Little Xue''s copy? You can still move around even after the real Tang Li Xue fell unconscious?" Instructor Mei Lan stared dumbfoundedly at Tang Li Xue in front of her eyes.
"No, I am the real Tang Li Xue!" Tang Li Xueughed at Instructor Mei Lan while spinning the key with her index finger.
Tang Li Xue did not lie to Instructor Mei Lan. She was really the real one.
When the duration of her [War Goddess Mode] was up, Tang Li Xue felt the horrible bacsh assaulting her entire body. It was far more painful than she ever felt before.
Not only all of her muscles were aching as if she was tearing to pieces, but she also felt every cell in her body was burned by her own extremely hot deep-blue mes.
The pain was too unimaginable to describe!
Fortunately, she has this life-saving skill!
[Damage Transfer]: The user will be able to transfer any damage she received to the copy. (If the user received a sudden deadly blow, this skill will automatically activate and send the damage to the copy.)
So the real Tang Li Xue transferred all of her wounds and bacsh effect to her perfect copy made from the [Twin Moons] divine ability!
Moreover, her copy already kept searching for the key in these three minutes and managed to find it at the gatekeeper room!
The real Tang Li Xue also activated her [Swap] skill and switched her position with her perfect copy without Instructor Mei Lan noticing!
[Swap]: The user exchanged the position with the copy.
''So this is what everyone always said... ''Lose in battle, but win the war''?'' Tang Li Xueughed out loud with her wless win.
She lost the battle against Instructor Mei Lan, but she managed to win the game in the end!
Chapter 201 - 201: Violent Backlash!
Chapter 201 - 201: Violent Bacsh!
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently at Tang Li Xue and shook her head in resignation.
''This little one is surely getting more and more mysterious and unpredictable after she evolved into [Umon] grade! But her fighting style is so messy, I must train her stricter from now on to polish her more! I am really looking forward to seeing how strong she will be after she evolves into a spirit beast in the future!'' Instructor Mei Lan thought while kept staring at Tang Li Xue with a heated gaze.
The happy Tang Li Xue shuddered slightly as her [Spirit Perception] detected the danger which Instructor Mei Lan would push onto her in the future, but unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not know it yet, so she did not think much about it.
Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue went out of the sparring room and heading together to the medical ward.
Instructor Mei Lan pulled out Bing Yi, Li Jing, Hei Yinghao, and the others from her space pouch and let the medical squad healed all of their wounds.
Tang Li Xue even begged Instructor Mei Lan to have her perfect copy treated by the medical squad.
"Your clone also needs to get healed?" Instructor Mei Lan asked Tang Li Xue in puzzlement.
Tang Li Xue nodded and exined a bit about her [Twin Moons] divine ability to Instructor Mei Lan.
Well... At least, in the beginning, Tang Li Xue only nned to exin a bit about it, but under Instructor Mei Lan''s strict interrogation, Tang Li Xue ended up telling everything about her [Twin Moons] skills such as [Swap], [Damage Transfer], [Shared Senses] and even [Merge].
Tang Li Xue really wanted to cry right now, but no tears came out. She swore her Instructor Mei Lan should be the master in interrogation too since she could even force Tang Li Xue to spill everything out just like that.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled even more kindly and patted Tang Li Xue''s shoulder while saying: "You have an amazing divine ability so you should treasure it more. Sigh... You are really born to be an Investigator. I will train you carefully from now on, so be prepared!"
Tang Li Xue''s body shuddered even more violently. The feeling of danger given by her [Spirit Perception] became more apparent, but Tang Li Xue still remained clueless about it.
It did not take long for the medical squad to heal Bing Yi, Li Jing, and the others since their wounds were not that severe. Instructor Mei Lan struck right at their vital point and made them fell unconscious without much difficulty after all.
However, the medical squad was facing a lot of trouble when they tried to heal Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wounds.
Instructor Mei Lan''s burns were not from the normal me. The horrible dark-gold me should keep encroaching Instructor Mei Lan''s body until she burned into nothingness.
Tang Li Xue alreadypletely dispersed the residue of dark-gold me in Instructor Mei Lan''s body before they went out from the sparring room, but it did not mean the burns caused by it could heal so easily.
In fact, Instructor Mei Lan''s burns did not show any sign of recovery even after the medical squad did everything they could.
The same case also happened to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue never knew that the bacsh effect of [War Goddess Mode] was so terrifying because she never entered the [War Goddess Mode] before so today was her first experience.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy has gotten paler and paler as if her current body was devoid of any blood. Her breath also got fainter and fainter as if it could stop at any moment. It was clear that her perfect copy was currently on the verge of death!
The real Tang Li Xue wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve and really d that she did not use [Merge] skill with her perfect copy or the one who lied down on that bed right now would be her!
"The bacsh of your ability is too horrible. Try not to use it often in the future! Even if you are forced to use it, make sure to leave your copy intact so you can use your [Damage Transfer] to her like now, understand?" Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue with a really stern tone.
Tang Li Xue nodded to Instructor Mei Lan with a solemn expression.
The medical squad also did everything they could to save Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and restore her health, but they still could not nullify the violent bacsh from the [War Goddess Mode].
All they could do was trying to extend the copy''s life and wait until the violent bacsh from the [War Goddess Mode] to gradually fade away.
Tang Li Xue even took out two of her [Talisman of Regeneration +2] then tried to use it to Instructor Mei Lan and her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still in aa like before, but Instructor Mei Lan''s burns started to regenerate very slowly thanks to Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Regeneration +2].
Tang Li Xue even brought out the unconscious Yaya from her system storage, and the sleeping Phoenix of Pride from her Dantian then used her [Talisman of Regeneration +2] to both of them before stored them back.
Yaya and Phoenix of Pride were currently also facing the bacsh from the [War Goddess Mode], but their symptom was far lighter than Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
After thinking about the reason for a while, Tang Li Xue found the cause quite easily.
It seems Both Yaya and Phoenix of Pride were currently at [Rare] grade, while Tang Li Xue was only at [Umon] grade, so her body was not strong enough to handle both of them.
''I only think to raise my Spirit statstely... It looks like I must also continue to raise the other three stats from now on. Sigh...'' Tang Li Xue sighed in annoyance.
After half an hour, Bing Yi, Li Jing, Hei Yinghao, and the others regained their consciousness.
"Xue! How... How could you be like this?!" Hei Yinghao held Tang Li Xue''s copy hand and shouted with a tone full of worry and grief.
"Little Xue! Please, I beg you! Be strong and survive!" Bing Yi even sheds her tears when she saw the critical condition of Tang Li Xue''s copy because the copy was like the fire on the candle which could die out anytime.
Even the eyes of Li Jing, Huang Hao, and Gan Aomiao turned red when they saw the pale face of Tang Li Xue''s copy and her breath was so faint until it was almost undetectable.
"Xue! Tell me who did this to you?! I... I promise I will sure avenge you! Even if the one who did it is a God or Buddha... I will... certainly will... y them all for you!" Hei Yinghao grasped the copy''s hand tighter and vowed sincerely.
Instructor Mei Lan could no longer bear all of her students kept making such argemotion in the medical ward, so she pped the back of Hei Yinghao''s head with her palm and said: "I am the one who did it! What? You want to y me too?!"
"Ins... Instructor Lan? How could you do this to my beloved Xue?! This is clearly too much! You... Eh... Eeehhhh... EEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHH?!" At first, Hei Yinghao shouted in anger to Instructor Mei Lan, but he immediately shouted in disbelief when his gaze fell to the masked girl behind Instructor Mei Lan.
"Xu... Xue? But... This is also Xue? How could there be two Xues here?! Who are you?! How dare you disguising as our Xue?!" Hei Yinghao looked back and forth between the real Tang Li Xue and her copy before pointing his index finger at the real Tang Li Xue and shouted angrily.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and said calmly: "Silly Fox, can you calm down for a bit? Your loud voice is disturbing the other patients here!"
Hei Yinghao immediately released the copy''s hand and stood beside the real Tang Li Xue with a silly smile on his face.
"I already knew my Xue is so strong and my Xue will never be defeated so easily! I only touched the girl''s hand to confirm that she is the fake one. Actually, I already know that she is a fake since her hand is so rough and gross to touch!" Hei Yinghao said his excuse with a straight face.
''Rough and gross?! How dare he say that to me?! My hand is still so soft and smooth!'' Tang Li Xue stared at Hei Yinghao angrily and kicked him away.
"In the book, it says the girl will get angry if the guy she likes touches another girl... Does it mean Xue likes me for real?!" Hei Yinghao mumbled, but his eyes shone brighter in excitement.
"Instructor Lan, do you know a teacher with the strong wind-elemental divine abilities? Can you help me to ask that teacher to teach Yaya?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a begging tone.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and asked back: "There are many teachers with the strong wind-elemental divine abilities in Myriad Foxes Academy. I can help you rmend your little friend to them but the decision to ept or refuse is still in their hands. Let''s see... What kind of teacher do you want? The mediocre teacher, the best teacher, or the strongest teacher?"
"Eh? Of course, I want the best one for Yaya... but what is the difference between the best teacher and the strongest teacher?" Tang Li Xue tilted her head and asked with a curious tone.
Chapter 202 - 202: Dispute!
Chapter 202 - 202: Dispute!
"The difference?" Instructor Mei Lanughed when she heard Tang Li Xue''s question.
Instructor Mei Lan showed her usual gentle smile and thought for a while before continued to exin: "Um... the strongest teachers are all like me, while the best teachers are all the opposite of me. Which one do you want?"
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in surprise and instantly became speechless by Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation.
"Okay... Thank you so much for the easy to understand exnation." Tang Li Xue replied to Instructor Mei Lan with a monotonous tone.
"You are wee. You can ask your little friend''s opinion first after she regained her consciousnesster and do not forget to discuss it carefully with her. This decision is very important, especially when your little friend is still so young and innocent." Instructor Mei Lan giggled at Tang Li Xue''s reply and answered.
Although Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation seemed vague and confusing, but its meaning was actually very easy to understand.
All the strongest teachers have the strongest fighting prowess in the Myriad Foxes Academy but all of them also have their own quirk and strange habit so all the students and mediocre teachers usually called them insane, lunatic, crazy, etc.
They were just like the genius and prodigy in Tang Li Xue''s previous life who was getting ostracized from the others because of their gifts before so it made their mind and personality crooked in the end.
The examples of these strongest teachers were Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Bai Wuchen.
They were so strong to the point of the other teachers feared them greatly and avoided them like gue, but their personalities were also wed.
Especially when Yaya was still so young right now, and her personality would be easily influenced by her environment. Who knows if her teacher''s crooked personality would infect her too in the future?!
The best teachers were the opposite of the strongest teachers.
The meaning of these words was clear.
It means that the best teachers have the right and proper personality! They were equipped with rich knowledge and also have the second respectable profession other than the teacher such as Inscriptionist, Alchemist, Physician, and so on.
The example of these best teachers was Teacher Li Wei.
Since Tang Li Xue won the hide and seek game for today, Instructor Mei Lan gave 500 credits to Tang Li Xue, Hei Yinghao, Bing Yi, Li Jing, and the others.
Tang Li Xue even got extra 1,500 credits as the bonus for today''s MVP from Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue and the others including Instructor Mei Lan went down to the first floor after they discharged from the medical ward while chatting happily with each other, but Instructor Mei Lan only smiled gently and heard what they talk about silently.
The condition of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy has stabilized even though she was still unconscious now, and her breathing was still too weak, but she will recover back to normal in 3 days.
Tang Li Xue could only groan in dejection, but she could not do anything. At least, her copy only needs 3 days to recover, which was still far better than 9 nights if the copypletely destroyed.
(If the copy is destroyed, the user will need to take the moonlight bath for 9 nights to recover it.)
When Tang Li Xue and the others walked towards the Education Building''s entrance, Teacher Li Wei already waited for Tang Li Xue there as usual.
"You arete again today." As usual, Teacher Li Weiined again the moment he saw Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue approached Teacher Li Wei and said exined: "I am sorry, Teacher Li! I have a hide and seek game lesson with Instructor Lan today. We all got sent to the medical ward after that, so that is why I amte."
Tang Li Xue felt embarrassed and lowered her head slightly to apologize for beingte twice in a row in attending Teacher Li Wei''s Inscription Lesson.
"Hei, Sissy Wei! What are you doing to my student? If you dare to seduce my student with your pretty face, I will make sure to castrate you today!" Instructor Mei Lan approached Teacher Li Wei and said to him while giggling as if she was joking, but somehow Tang Li Xue felt that she was not kidding at all.
Teacher Li Weiughed back at Instructor Mei Lan and said: "What are you trying to say? Your beloved student is the one who begged me first to teach her. But I feel it make sense since you are just not smart enough to teach her anything useful. Don''t you think so too, Dummy Lan?"
Both Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei paused for a bit while staring at each other beforeughing louder and louder, but Tang Li Xue, who was standing between the two of them, felt the situation was bing more and more dangerous now.
Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the other could even see the faint images of the angry dragon and tiger bit at each other as the lightning and thunder kept shing behind Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei.
The atmosphere around them was so tense that it felt suffocating, but they did not dare to interrupt these two great teachers.
The moment when both Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei stoppedughing, each of them swiftly held one of Tang Li Xue''s hands.
"Dummy Lan, release my student''s hand immediately! She has an Inscription Lesson with me right now! I don''t have any time to waste with the likes of you!" Teacher Li Wei pulled Tang Li Xue''s right hand toward him while angrily shouted at Instructor Mei Lan.
"Your student? YOUR STUDENT?! Hahahahaha! So funny! Since when is she your student? She is MY STUDENT, understands?! Now let go of her hand! I will never allow my student to interact with a sissy like you! What if she became a cowardly sissy too because of you?! I will surely kill her with my own hands if she became like you!" Instructor Mei Lan pulled Tang Li Xue''s left hand toward her whileughing in fury.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth to withstand the pain, and the cold sweat poured out from her forehead when Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei pulled each of her hands. She felt like she almost snapped in two because these two really used their strength to pull each of her hands.
"What can a barbaric teacher like you teach to Little Xue other than brawling and grappling all day? What can you do other than fighting? You will only be wasting Little Xue''s talent! Let her go now! I don''t care even if you ying around as a fake teacher for those ungifted students, but Little Xue is different! Only a genius like me can teach a genius like Little Xue!" Teacher Li Wei gritted his teeth in anger and tried to exin logically.
"A genius? You? You are only a bookworm with a little bit of knowledge, that''s all! But you have no courage at all! Can you even fight properly without relying on your talismans, amulets, artifacts, or treasures? What''s the difference between you and those filthy humans who fight with weapons?" Instructor Mei Lan rebuked Teacher Li Wei harshly.
"That''s enough! It''s futile for us to keep arguing like this! Let''s ask for Little Xue''s opinion herself and let her choose who will be her teacher from now on?! How about that?" Teacher Li Wei was still fuming with rage, but he still suggested something clearheadedly.
Instructor Mei Lan thought for a while and released Tang Li Xue''s hand from her grasp then said to Tang Li Xue: "All right! Little Xue, you don''t need to be scared! I, Mei Lan will surely... not kill you if you choose to remain as my student. So who do you choose as your teacher? That Sissy guy or the beautiful, gentle, and strong me?"
Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips twitched violently as she thought: ''So you will not kill me if I choose you... does it mean you will kill me if I do not choose you? Sigh... Honestly, I like Instructor Lan more, she is so reliable and very trustworthy... But I also want to learn more about Inscription! What should I do now?''
However, Teacher Li Wei quickly grabbed Tang Li Xue''s waist without waiting to hear her answer after Instructor Mei Lan released Tang Li Xue''s hand and retreated tens of meters behind.
"SISSY LI! HOW DARE YOU..." Instructor Mei Lan shouted to Teacher Li Wei in rage.
Teacher Li Weiughed at Instructor Mei Lan and interrupted her words: "Dummy Lan, you are still so dummy as always! May I never see you againter!"
Teacher Li Wei threw a grey amulet upward, then both he and Tang Li Xue instantly vanished from everyone''s view along with the amulet.
Even Tang Li Xue did not know what amulet was this, but it was surely something with teleportation ability since both she and Teacher Li Wei instantly appeared in the empty ss right now.
"You can take a seat now. Let''s begin our lesson for today!" Teacher Li Wei said, while stored back his grey amulet and released his grasp on Tang Li Xue''s slender waist.
" Teacher Li... I..." Tang Li Xue hesitated on what she should say to Teacher Li Wei.
Teacher Li Weiughed at Tang Li Xue''s hesitation and exined: "You don''t need to worry about anything. All you need to do is just learn everything diligently. Believe me, that Dummy Lan will never say or ask anything about this again to you tomorrow!"
"Eh? Why? But... the two of you seems so...disagreeable with each other?" Tang Li Xue frowned and asked with a tone full of hesitation.
Teacher Li Wei chuckled and replied to Tang Li Xue: "No teacher will prevent his or her student from learning anything useful from the other teachers. That is including me and your Instructor Mei Lan. What she was doing before is to humiliate me in front of you and the other students! She wants me to beg her in order to teach you."
"All the students like you don''t know, but the teachers like me and your Instructor Mei Lan have their own faction just like your Inspector ss and Executor ss. You don''t need to know or think too much about this. This is only a small game between us, the teachers in Myriad Foxes Academy to relieve our boredom." Teacher Li Wei patted Tang Li Xue''s head and exined again patiently.
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding and swiftly took a seat at the front ssroom.
"Today, I will teach something interesting to you so you can show it to that Dummy Lan soon in the future." Teacher Li Wei chuckled at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s interest was piqued by Teacher Li Wei''s words, and she asked: "What will you teach me today?"
Chapter 203 - 203: Instant Inscription!
Chapter 203 - 203: Instant Inscription!
Teacher Li Weiughed at Tang Li Xue''s question and asked back: "Do you know the true potential of that one finger whatever creation of yours?"
"Eh? The true potential... of my Energy... err... I mean my One Finger Create the World?" Tang Li Xue tilted her head in confusion.
Teacher Li Wei did not answer and just smiled at Tang Li Xue as he took out a stone disc from his space pouch.
"This is a nk stone disc. Inscriptionist like us needs to inscribe some runes on its surface to give it some functions. We can make it into offensive type treasure or defensive type treasure or even transportation type treasure ording to our preference. Look, I will carve a rune onto it!" Teacher Li Wei took out his own inscription pen and a bottle filled with blood beast.
He uncorked the bottle and dipped the tip of his inscription pen into the bottle filled with blood beast. The tip of his inscription pen absorbed the beast''s blood inside the bottle for a while before he pulled the inscription pen out from the bottle and used it to inscribe a rune on the nk stone disc''s surface.
Different from Tang Li Xue''s unsightly handwritten rune, Teacher Li Wei''s handwritten rune was so beautiful, like a piece of art which very pleasant to the eyes.
After inscribing that rune, Teacher Li Wei threw the stone disc onto the ground, but it was hovering in front of him instead.
"This is ''Floating'' rune. As you can see, the function of this rune is to grant the ability to ''float''. This ''Floating'' rune must be used if you want to make transportation type treasure such as flying disc or flying sword." Teacher Li Wei exined to Tang Li Xue patiently.
"But just this ''Floating'' rune is not enough to make a proper transportation type treasure. You will need to carve the other runes such as ''eleration'', ''Deceleration'', ''Ascending'', ''Descending'', and ''Control'' but all of these runes will only make it barely enough to be called proper transportation type treasure. You need to insert many moreplicated runes to make it into superior transportation type treasure." Teacher Li Wei continued to exin while kept smiling and staring at the confused Tang Li Xue.
"Teacher Li... this is still too far for me. Forget about making a proper treasure, I have not even able to inscribe a rune onto the empty amulet yet." Tang Li Xue pursed her pinkish lips a bit andined.
"Sigh... What I want to tell you is that your divine ability well-matched with the Inscription. Can''t you imagine if you can create the inscribed treasure like this in an instant with your ability?" Teacher Li Wei sighed in admiration when he imagined Tang Li Xue divine ability''s potential.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter when she heard Teacher Li Wei''s encouraging words.
She just thought how useless her [Energy Maniption] was previously when she saw Instructor Mei Lan could use her [Vibration Construct] in the same way as her [Energy Maniption].
"But Teacher Li... aren''t the other people can also condense something using their own elemental power such as vibration, fire, ice, earth, and so on? What is the difference between my divine ability and theirs? Doesn''t it mean they can also condense the inscribed treasure if they learn about inscriptions?" Tang Li Xue asked Teacher Li Wei with a tone full of curiosity.
"They can''t. Something condensed from elemental powers is highly unstable. They could only form it into something because of their high control over elementalpression. I will not exin about elementalpression to you since it is not my area of expertise. You can ask about that to your Instructor tomorrow." Teacher Li Wei briefly exined to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue thought for a while and realized that her [Energy Maniption] could condense her energy into solid form while elemental powers achieved it throughpression, but it could not be called solid form since it would immediately go out of control and disperse or explode without the control from the user.
"With your divine ability, you can reach the realm which all Inscriptionists dreamed of. We call it [Instant Inscription] because you can create any inscribed treasures ording to your will with your divine ability in an instant! So you must work hard to achieve it!" Teacher Li Weiughed and patted Tang Li Xue''s head gently in adoration.
In the end, Teacher Li Wei taught Tang Li Xue about how to channel her spirit energy to inscribe the rune onto the talisman today, which improved Tang Li Xue''s sess rate in inscribing the talisman even further.
Today Tang Li Xue did not even use her golden [Inscription Pen] she got from the system. She only used the white jade Inscription Pen she got from Teacher Li Wei yesterday but still managed to create some talismans.
The sky was already dark when Teacher Li Wei''s lesson ended.
Teacher Li Wei wanted to escort Tang Li Xue back to Residential Building, but Tang Li Xue refused it because she had to go to the Auction House tonight to take the credits she got from selling all of her talismans yesterday.
"Next time you can leave all of the talismans you want to sell to me. I can help you sell it to Inscriptionist Association. The price there is certainly higher than the Auction House, and it''s also free from any fee." Teacher Li Wei told Tang Li Xue and kindly offered his help.
But Tang Li Xue stared at Teacher Li Wei full of suspicion as if he wanted to swindle her money.
"Hei, Hei, Hei! What kind of look is that? Do you really think I am really going to swindle your credits?" Teacher Li Wei flicked Tang Li Xue''s forehead in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead while pouted and replied with a tone full of grievance: "Teacher Li, are you already forget? You robbed my best talisman for free before!"
Teacher Li Weiughed did not know whether he should felt angry or sad. Many other people... or foxes tried to please him and pushed so many precious things to him, but he refused all of them coldly yet now his own student was not even willing to give him a single talisman.
However, Teacher Li Wei still did not want to give the talisman back to Tang Li Xue since it was a memento of their first meeting at the Inscriptionist Association.
For some reason, Teacher Li Wei felt as if it was their fateful meeting so that talisman held an important memorial value to Teacher Li Wei.
Teacher Li Wei took out the teleportation amulet from his space pouch and threw it to Tang Li Xue.
"You can take this as yourpensation. This [Amulet of Teleportation] can save your life at a critical moment. You can teleport to somewhere nearby in an instant with that [Amulet of Teleportation], but it can only be used once per day so use it carefully." Teacher Li Wei walked out from the entrance of the Education Building without waiting for Tang Li Xue''s reply.
He was afraid that his patience will be run out if he kept talking with Tang Li Xue any longer.
Tang Li Xue grinned happily, as she stared at the [Amulet of Teleportation] in her hand with the eyes glowing with happiness.
She carefully stored the [Amulet of Teleportation] into her space pouch while thought: ''I traded a [Talisman of Regeneration +3] with a high grade [Amulet of Teleportation]! What a big bargain! I should trade more talismans to Teacher Li from now on!''
Teacher Li Wei would probably puke out a mouthful of blood in anger if he heard what in Tang Li Xue''s mind right now.
Different from the talisman which can only be used once, the amulet can be used continuously, but inscriptionists can only inscribe one rune onto it. Of course, it also has the cooldown like equipment skill.
After walked for some time, Tang Li Xue arrived at the Auction House, and she immediately went to the front desk staff to ask about how much credits she got from selling her talisman.
Tang Li Xue sold thirty-three [Talisman of Regeneration +1], and she got 56,900 credits from it.
She also sold fourteen [Talisman of Regeneration +2], and all of it was sold for 29,800 credits.
Tang Li Xue got 86,700 credits from selling all of her talismans in total!
After deducting 20% of it for the Auction House''s fee, Tang Li Xue still managed to get 69,360 credits!
Adding more than 50,000 credits in her bronze card, Tang Li Xue had a bit less than 120,000 credits in total!
Tang Li Xue almost burst tough out loud in excitement when she saw the total credits in her bronze card.
''Okay, let''s buy a high-level [Rare] grade beast core today since I am rich now!'' Tang Li Xue grinned from ear to ear and browsed around anything sold in the Auction House''s area while trying to find a suitable beast core for the glutton egg to eat.
Tang Li Xue looked at the [Rare] grade beast cores one by one while kept asking at the glutton egg with the connection in her mind.
''This little bast*rd is really annoying! It really is a big glutton! How could it say something like I want them all?! Little egg, you better behave and picks one which suits your taste, or I will not buy you anything today!'' Tang Li Xue tried to threaten the glutton egg.
''What? You want me to bring you out so you can pick it yourself carefully?'' Tang Li Xue pondered it for a while before gave in to the glutton egg constant begging.
''Okay, okay, okay, I understand, so you can shut up now! I will bring you out but remember! You must always listen to me and never misbehave, or I will throw you back inside there again, got it?!'' Tang Li Xue warned the glutton egg with a stern tone.
After hearing the glutton egg consented to her warning, Tang Li Xue went to the rather deste ce and pulled the glutton egg out from her system inventory.
She wrapped the glutton egg in the white towel and brought it into the crowded core area of the Auction House with her.
Tang Li Xue carried it to see the high level [Rare] grade beast cores there and nned to let it pick the one it likes.
Tang Li Xue let down her guard and believed the glutton egg so easily because she already got used to the obedient and affectionate Yaya.
However, Tang Li Xue never thought that this glutton egg was thepletely opposite of Yaya!
It was so treacherous and wanton!
The glutton egg jumped out from Tang Li Xue''s grasp so suddenly and pounced toward where all the expensive high level [Rare] grade beast cores disyed!
Chapter 204 - 204: Disaster Caused By the Glutton Egg!
Chapter 204 - 204: Disaster Caused By the Glutton Egg!
''OH NO! This little bast*rd!'' Tang Li Xue knew the situation has turned out to the worst for her, and she reflexively wanted to catch the egg back.
However, her [Spirit Perception] sensed something different. It told her something like ''It''s already toote! You can''t catch it anymore! Quickly hide yourself and run as far as you can before anyone notices you!''
''Dammit! What should I do now?!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth, but she still decided to follow what her [Spirit Perception] told her to do before.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure vanished into thin air.
Although, all of these seemed long, but only less than half a second had passed since the glutton egg jumped out from Tang Li Xue''s grasp.
The movement speed of the glutton egg was too fast, and it appeared in front of the disy cabs in an instant.
The glutton egg had sucked all of the expensive high level [Rare] grade beast cores along with all of its disy cabs in a sh. The phenomenon was extremely bizarre as if there was a small ck hole that devoured them all.
They were currently at the core area of the Auction House, so there were many crowds of foxes in human form or in fox form walking around to browse the items on disy.
"Eh, how could all the beast lord''s beast cores and the disy cabs here vanish just like that?!"
"Look at all of those disy cabs! I saw all the beast lord''s beast cores vanished along with all of its disy cabs!"
"How could all of those beast lord''s beast cores disappear in a sh? Maybe the staff decided to withdraw them and rece it with something else?"
"That''s true! Maybe some rich fox buy all of it? Just how rich they are if they can buy it all?!"
"No way! I have already been eyeing for that [Three Horned Shark] beast lord''s beast core since a few months ago! Is it really already been bought by someone? No, I must ask the staff first!"
After Tang Li Xue saw what happened in front of her own eyes, she did not even have any time to get surprised or baffled.
All the foxes here could not see the glutton egg since all the items from the system could not be seen or detected by the others other than Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue tried tomunicate with the glutton egg and told it toe back to her, but to make it worse, the glutton egg still was not satisfied yet, and it nned to continue eating the other beast cores in this Auction House.
Tang Li Xue almost fainted when she heard the glutton egg''s reply. She was no longer hesitating and instantly activated her [Shadow sh] when several people made a ruckus about what the glutton egg did and attracting more and more crowds.
Tang Li Xue teleported to the farthest shadow she could reach and used her [Blink] skill repeatedly to go out as far as she could from the Auction House.
''Damned glutton egg! You crazy egg, if you want to do something bad like that, then don''t drag me into your mess! You are on your own from now on! Whether the auction house''s owner will sell, roast, or fry you, I will no longer care about you anymore!'' Tang Li Xue shouted to the glutton egg through the connection in her mind.
But the glutton egg only replied in a leisure manner to Tang Li Xue, it still could not speak but it could already convey its feeling clearly, and it expressed something like: ''What a fussy mom! You don''t need to worry about the great me! Just go home first and wait for me there! I will definitelye back home after I am full!''
Tang Li Xue was fuming in rage by the glutton egg''s reply, and she decided to stop caring about the glutton egg''s fate from now on.
While Tang Li Xue still kept using the [Blink] skill repeatedly to get back into her room as soon as she could, the glutton egg made themotion in the Auction House bigger and bigger by devouring many rare items such as beast cores, treasures, artifacts, etc.
The egg created a huge panic when it kept devouring anything it likes in front of everyone''s view, but it seemed as if the items were vanishing by itself.
The egg even devoured all the items on many stalls made the owners screamed in panic like insane foxes.
It only took a few minutes for the egg to devour all of those!
The countless ck runes on the egg''s surface became even more apparent!
The pure evil auraing from the egg brought immense pressure to everyone in the Auction House and thrown the Auction House into chaos!
All the foxes inside the Auction House were haunted by fear and terror!
This hugemotion forced the higher up from the Auction House toe into the Auction to solve it.
A young man wore ck clothes and a white robe entered the Auction House in hurry.
His face was somewhat stiff, cold, suave, and handsome, but his every movement was so refined and elegant. The majestic and heroic aura emitted from his body was like bones that had been polished with a knife, and like jade that was wrought by chisel and stone.
Perhaps even ''handsome'' was no longer sufficient to describe this young man''s perfect feature anymore, which could only describe as ''peerless''.
He had long silky white hair with a pair of bright obsidian ck eyes. However, the freezing cold gaze from that pair of eyes could chase all the people away from approaching him.
All the staff in the Auction House immediately calmed down the moment after they saw the young man, and they respectfully bowed to him.
"Tell me exactly what happened here." The young man''s cold voice resounded. It sounded very pleasant to everyone ears, but it also brought the irrefutable authority with it, made everyone unable to disobey it.
The supervisor of the Auction House approached the young man and told everything to the young man.
"The items in the Auction House mysteriously disappeared? Then what about this immense pressure and intense evil aura?" The young man frowned and asked again.
The supervisor of the Auction House shook her head since she really did not know anything about this.
"I understand. You can evacuate everyone out of this building first. I and my people will handle the rest." The young man waved his hand, and all the staff immediately moved to evacuate the people inside the Auction House.
The young man called one of his shadow guards and told him: "I have a bad feeling about this overwhelming evil aura. I suspected there is a powerful Undead Race''s creature inside the Auction House right now."
"Ah?! A powerful Undead?! Then... then what should we do now, My Lord?" Even this fearless trained shadow guard felt panicked the moment he heard about the powerful Undead Race''s creature.
"You can go now and notify all the Councillor Members about this! I will make my move first, but I am afraid that even I am still not strong enough to defeat this monstrous evil creature." The young man ordered his shadow guard with a stern tone.
"My Lord! This is too dangerous! I will notify all the Councillor Members, so please just wait for me toe back here with all the Councillor Members, then we can face this evil creature together!" The shadow guard begged the young man with a tone full of worry.
The young man shook his head and put the expression as if he was ready to sacrifice his life for the goodness and said: "I am afraid we don''t have any more time. That evil creature gets more and more powerful every time it consumes something. I am afraid it will be too immensely powerful for us to defeat by the time of all the Councillor Members arrived here!"
"We have no time to waste anymore! Go now and quickly notify the Councillor Members!" The young man pushed his shadow guard away and entered deeper into the Auction House with the rest of his Shadow Guards.
"MY LORD!!!" The shadow guard shouted and almost cried in sorrow as if his master already sacrificed his life in order to save everyone in the Auction House.
"My Lord... Don''t worry, I will carry this mission even if I must give up my life to do it!" The shadow guard shouted once again, and he sprinted out from the Auction House as fast as he could.
All of them were acted as if they were facing the strongest being from the Undead Race, but who knew that the enemy they extremely feared was actually only an egg...
Tonight was fated to be the restless night for all the foxes in the Myriad Foxes Academy.
Tang Li Xue who already arrived at the Residential Building and entered her room still did not know what happened.
She did not even have any clue that everything already blew out of proportion until it reached the scale which could plunge this entire Myriad Foxes Academy into the chaos and made all the highest authority in the Myriad Foxes Academy panicked.
If Tang Li Xue knew everything will be like this, she would probably rather choose to catch the glutton egg at all cost even if it already consumed many [Rare] grade high-level beast cores, and she needed to shoulder a heavy debt because of it.
Chapter 205 - 205: Enormous Bounty!
Chapter 205 - 205: Enormous Bounty!
The current clueless Tang Li Xue was still lying down on her bed in her bedroom. She was trying to sleep, but somehow she still could not shake the ufortable feeling in her heart as if something bad will happen.
Tang Li Xue got up and sat on her bed. She decided to open her status window in her system to check her current progress.
Skills: Blink (Lv5), High Jump (Lv4), Night Vision (Mastered), EXP Augmentation (Lv3), Climb (Mastered), Mapping Sense (Lv2), [Regeneration (Lv4)], [Telepathy (Lv3)], [Concentration (Lv2)], [Increase Evasion (Lv2)], [Increase uracy (Lv2)], [Decrease Reaction-Time (Lv2)], [Focus (Lv2)], [Strengthen Willpower (Lv2)],?[Sharpen Mind (Lv2)], [Calction (Lv2)], [Prediction (Lv2)], [Intelligence Enhancement (Lv2)]
Tang Li Xue was quite pleased. Many of her skills had leveled up today because of her intense battle with Instructor Mei Lan.
Battle Style: Imperial Moon Dancer [Moon Splitter (Lv3)]
''This [Imperial Moon Dancer] Battle Style only has 1 move... It is too few! Is it possible that I can get more moves after I raise its level to Mastered? It seems I must use this [Moon Splitter] more in training or in battle so I can increase it to Mastered level as soon as possible!'' Tang Li Xue tapped her chin and smiled full of expectation as she longing for more powerful moves.
Tang Li Xue decided to use 300 of her total 1279 free stat points to increase her Strength, Agility, and Toughness stats from 900 to 1,000, while she also used 10 free stat points to increase her Spirit stat from 250 to 260.
She felt an unbearable stinging pain assaulting her mind for a moment, but fortunately, it was not enough to knock her unconscious like before.
After the pain has subsided, Tang Li Xue tried to increase her spirit stat from 260 to 270 again.
However, the splitting headache she felt right now increased so much and has be even more unbearablepared to the first one!
Tang Li Xue''s face became so pale, and she almost passed out. Thankfully, the pain had subsided before she lost consciousness.
Tang Li Xue could felt her mind became a bit clearer and sharper than before.
''This Spirit stat is so great, but it really troublesome to increase it! Sigh... it seems I can only increase it by 10 - 20 points every day. Oh, wait a minute... can I transfer this unbearable pain when I increased my Spirit stat to my perfect copy with the [Damage Transfer]? It sounds possible, but I must wait for my perfect copy topletely recovered first before trying it!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes glowed even brighter as her beautiful smile bloomed.
Tang Li Xue thought if her mind has be sharper and smarter, any question could surely be answered easily.
However, the reality was actually far from that. Her mind had be smarter and sharper, but more and more questions popped up in her mind instead.
One of the examples was about her weapon, the [Critical Strikers], and her boots, the [Shadow Striders].
Both of these two have [Level: 1] written on its status window in her system, but how could she increase this level?!
At first, she guessed that she only need to fight using it, but she fought so much against Instructor Mei Lan today, and both of it still did not level up, so she concluded the method to increase the level was not that.
''Sigh... it seems I must experiment more on how to increase the level of these two so...''
CCLLLAAAAAAAANGGG~!!! CCLLLAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
But Tang Li Xue''s thought was interrupted by the loud sound of the bell!
"What the hell is that sound?! Where does ite from?" Tang Li Xue grumbled in annoyance.
She searched around her bedroom to find the source of that loud sound of the bell but realized soon that the loud bell sound was actuallying from inside her own space pouch.
Tang Li Xue took out the items in her space pouch one by one to check it and found out that the loud bell sound was actually caused by the bronze badge!
"What''s wrong with this badge? Is it malfunctioning or something? How could I turn off this annoying loud sound?"?Tang Li Xue muttered while kept examining her bronze badge and poking her finger around onto it.
When Tang Li Xue poked her finger onto the center of the bronze badge, the loud bell sound immediately stopped, and a small transparent screen projected on the top of the bronze badge.

Emergency SSS-Rank Mission!
Addressed to: Every fox in the Myriad Foxes Academy (Lightwind Continent Branch) and its vicinity!
The current information:
Someone had brought something unknown into the Auction House to sell, but that was actually the vessel of a powerful creature from the Evil Undead Race.
The powerful creature has already broken out from its vessel and invading our home.
From thest information, the Evil Creature was still inside the Auction House, devouring everything cleanly to restore its strength!
*Reward for the information given: 10,000,000 Credits.
*Reward for ying the invader: 1,000,000,000 credits. (Granted ess to trade the credits for any treasure of the same value in the treasure warehouse of the Myriad Foxes Academy)
Beware! the Evil Creature is very powerful! Only foxes with Spirit Beast Rank or above permitted to join the hunt!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue was really speechless.
She was not stupid enough to think that there was such a coincidence like the glutton egg and the Evil Creature were identally appeared at the same time and ce.
The only answer should be the glutton egg was the source of all this chaos.
"Hahaha... I... I must be dreaming, right? For God''s sake, it is only an egg! How could it make such argemotion?!" Tang Li Xue said with a tone full of disbelief andughed in irony.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently when she saw the reward price and muttered in shock: "Holysh*t... Just how many zeroes is that? Three... six... nine zeroes?! One billion credits! Oh My Gosh, even I want to y that egg so badly with my own hands right now to get that nine zeroes reward!"
"Oh, wait a minute... or I can leak some information about that damned egg to get that ten million credits?! Even though I cannot y that damned egg but getting ten million credits is not so bad!" Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips, and she looked extremely seductive right now, but unfortunately, no one could appreciate it, because she was currently alone in her bedroom.
"But even if I try to reveal some unimportant information about the egg, I should also need to prove the authenticity of my information. Forget it... I don''t want to attract the attention of some important bigwigs and make them suspect me. Who knows if they will try to read my mind with some kind of methods." Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and tried to think more rationally.
"Sigh... it''s too risky for me, especially since I have so many secrets which I can''t tell anyone." Tang Li Xue shook her head to push away any distracting thought and tried to think about how to save the glutton egg from the Auction House without anyone knowing about it.
Although the damned egg was so treacherous and wanton, but it could not be denied that the damned egg was so powerful judged from the immense pressure it emitted even though it was only an egg for now!
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, all of her trump cards, such as her perfect copy, Yaya, and Phoenix of Pride were currently suffering from the bacsh of the [Goddess War Mode]. If not, she could just grab the egg and ran using her [Swap] with her perfect copy.
While Tang Li Xue was still in deep thinking, someone knocked on her door.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to ignore it, but that person in front of her room''s door was really persistent. It knocked even harder and harder.
"Who the hell is knocking on my door in the middle of the night like this?!" Tang Li Xue frowned while grumbled in aggravation.
Tang Li Xue ran toward her courtyard and took out her bronze card from the tiny ck box behind the door.
The surrounding beautiful courtyard instantly faded away and turned back into a dark-closet sized room.
Tang Li Xue opened the door in front of her as she wanted to scold the person who knocked on her door in the middle of the night, but she immediately swallowed her words back when she saw someone familiar stood in front of her door.
That person was actually her beloved Instructor Mei Lan!
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently at Tang Li Xue the moment Tang Li Xue opened her door.
Tang Li Xue wanted to close the door of her room again immediately, but after she remembered about everything Instructor Mei Lan already done for her, she decided to let Instructor Mei Lan enter before inserted her bronze card back into the ck tiny box, and they were back into Tang Li Xue''s courtyard.
"Instructor Lan, why are youing thiste to my ce?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a skeptical tone.
"Tonight''smotion is because of you, right?" Instructor Mei Lan did not want to spend her time being wishy-washy, so she directly asked Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue almost fainted on the spot when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s straightforward question.
"Instructor Lan, how could you suspect me for something like that?! I am aw-abiding citizen, so how could I..." Tang Li Xue forced a smile and tried to deny it, but the cold sweat poured out nonstop from her forehead.
Instructor Mei Lan raised her hand to stop Tang Li Xue''s rambling on and on while trying to deny everything.
"You do not need to exin anything to me. You only need to answer my question with one word. Yes or no?" Instructor Mei Lan asked Tang Li Xue with a stern tone, and she even put a solemn expression.
Chapter 206 - 206: Operation Egg Rescue!
Chapter 206 - 206: Operation Egg Rescue!
Instructor Mei Lan sat on the sofa in Tang Li Xue''s living room, and she crossed her long slender legs.
Instructor Mei Lan still kept staring at Tang Li Xue with a fierce expression, which made Tang Li Xue almost wanted to cry.
Tang Li Xue bit her pinkish lips and felt uncertain for a few moments before she decided to nod her head and murmured in hesitation: "Yes..."
Instructor Mei Lan closed her eyes and sighed in frustration.
"Err... Instructor Lan, how could you guess that tonight''smotion had something to do with me?" Tang Li Xue lowered her head and timidly asked Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue felt ashamed and guilty, but she also curious about why Instructor Mei Lan could immediately connect tonight''smotion with her.
"Woman intuition." Instructor Mei Lan answered carelessly. While she rubbed her forehead and kept thinking about how she could help her student gets out of this perilous situation.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan did not really depend on the so-called ''woman intuition'' to link Tang Li Xue with tonight''smotion.
Instructor Mei Lan already investigated everything Tang Li Xue had done before she entered Myriad Foxes Academy. She knew that Tang Li Xue was actually a super troublemaker who could create several huge-scale problems out of nothing.
Such as Yaya''s mother case...
Or like the divine treasure''s birth in the volcano...
All of these were the cases that never happened in Lightwind Continent before!
And right now... Myriad Foxes Academy had already existed for millions of years, but it never encountered the case of a powerful Undead Creature''s invasion like this before!
"Tell me everything about it now. I will decideter if I must hand you over to the higher up or help you cover it." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression.
Tang Li Xue decided to tell everything about the glutton egg to Instructor Mei Lan, but of course, she would never say anything about her system.
Tang Li Xue only told that she got the egg along with her divine treasure before, and she already forged some connection with the egg for more than a week.
Unfortunately, she was very poor currently, and could not buy the food for the egg which needs to consume so many high-level Beast Lord''s beast cores for its growth.
The starving egg decided to sneak out from her space pouch at the Auction House and ate all high-level Beast Lord''s beast cores by its own ord.
While Tang Li Xue admitted that she only knew it just recently after she saw the notification of Emergency SSS Rank Mission from her bronze badge.
"Wait a minute, so you are saying that tonight''smotion is actually caused by an egg? An egg caused this?" Instructor Mei Lan dropped her jaw and asked with a high pitched surprise tone.
Instructor Mei Lan did not know if she mustugh out loud at Tang Li Xue or scold her harshly.
Everyone would probably never believe this even if Instructor Mei Lan brought Tang Li Xue to the higher up and told them all about this.
"Wait... But I heard the auraing from inside the Auction House is so overwhelmingly powerful and fiendish. How could ite from an egg that has not even hatched yet?" Instructor Mei Lan asked Tang Li Xue again with a skeptical tone.
"Instructor Lan, I swear what I said now is true! Maybe the creature inside the egg is an ancient powerful creature because no one can see that egg other than me. That''s why they still cannot find the egg until now!" Tang Li Xue quickly replied to Instructor Mei Lan with an anxious tone.
"Instructor Lan... can... can you help me to retrieve that egg?" Tang Li Xue bit her pinkish lips again and timidly asked Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan stunned for a moment beforeughing out loud unrestrained.
Tang Li Xue did not know if Instructor Mei Lanughed because it was funny or because she was angry to the point of going insane.
"You... you still have the gall to ask me to help you to retrieve that abominable thing?! I really admire your courage!" Instructor Mei Lan patted Tang Li Xue''s shoulder, but somehow Tang Li Xue could feel her fury clearly this time.
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression went back to her solemn one after a while, and she put her slender finger on her chin to think.
"How sure can you control that thing after it hatched? I can help you retrieve that egg, but I don''t want that thing to harm you instead or even bring cmity to the entire Immortal World in the future!" Instructor Mei Lan asked Tang Li Xue again in a fierce manner.
Tang Li Xue thought for a moment, but she immediately recalled the > button in Yaya''s status window.
''If the creature in that egg is really evil, I can store it into my system using that button and never let it out ever again forever! But I must finish my binding process by dripping my blood onto it for 3 more weeks.'' Tang Li Xue squinted her topaz blue eyes and smiled full of confidence.
"I am 100% sure!" Tang Li Xue answered firmly.
Instructor Mei Lan raised her eyebrow and kept staring at Tang Li Xue for a few moments to judge if she really confident or just pretending to be confident.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently after she confirmed that Tang Li Xue was truly confident and asked her again in a teasing tone: "Even if you can exchange that egg to get 1 billion credits?"
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise and thought it once again carefully as if she was facing the most important and difficult choice in her life.
"Instructor Lan, I will do everything if I can get 1 billion credits and the egg back!" Tang Li Xue said to Instructor Mei Lan with the most serious expression she could ever make.
Instructor Mei Lan stunned silly by Tang Li Xue''s answer. She never thought that Tang Li Xue was this greedy...
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue followed behind Instructor Mei Lan, and both of them went out from Residential Building.
They were heading to the Auction House together as fast as they could.
Tang Li Xue realized that all the streets were especially empty today.
It seemed the notification from the badge did not only apply to attract more information about the Evil Undead Race''s creature (or the glutton egg) but also to warn the weaker foxes to not wander around until the higher up defeat that evil creature.
When they arrived at the Auction House, they met with someone familiar at the Auction House''s entrance.
A handsome ck-haired man stood with several other people at the Auction House''s entrance while discussing something.
This ck-haired man was actually one of the Education Councillors, Councillor Junjie!
"Eh, Lan''er? What are you doing here? You... You even bring your student here?! For what?! It''s very dangerous here! Just go home!" Councillor Junjie waved his hand in annoyance, signaled Instructor Mei Lan to go back.
Instructor Mei Lan red angrily at Councillor Junjie and replied with a righteous tone: "I am also the teacher from the Education Department! I have the right to be here and help to vanquish the evil creature! With my sound type divine abilities, I will surely be able to assist you from behindter!"
"You... You... You are so rash! This evil creature is out of your league! It could crush you easily with only one of its fingers!" Councillor Junjie pointed his index finger at Instructor Mei Lan and reprimanded her harshly.
Instructor Mei Lan almost wanted tough when she heard Councillor Junjie''s words and thought: ''Tsk, you will never think the evil creature that you afraid so badly is actually only an egg, aren''t you?!''
Instructor Mei Lan kept arguing with Councillor Junjie back and forth using righteous tones as if she was about to do a noble sacrifice for the Myriad Foxes Academy''s goodness, but Councillor Junjie disapproves it.
This was the first time Tang Li Xue really admire Instructor Mei Lan''s acting skill and her ability to manipte the situation to make the Councillor Junjie looks bad.
Several other people could not bear anymore and started to persuade Councillor Junjie.
"Junjie, your daughter is so noble and virtuous, really make me envy to death. Why not just let here with us? So we can protect her on the way?"
"That''s right, Junjie! Don''t be so overprotective like this, or your daughter will get sick of you. Just let her follow us, and we can protect her. What if she chooses to enter alone after us? The danger she would faceter is certainly much higher!"
Under the persuasion of several people in his team, Councillor Junjie could only yield and let both Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue follow them closely from behind.
"Remember! If the fight breaks out insideter, you must keep your distance with us, or you will certainly get killed without realizing it!" Councillor Junjie warned with a harsh tone.
"I understand! I also have this protection type treasure you give me before, so you can rest assured!" Instructor Mei Lan replied and nodded with a solemn expression.
"So far, so good... With this, our Operation Egg Rescue has already begun! Remember to carefully listen to my instructionter and do not make any blunder!" Instructor Mei Lan reminded Tang Li Xue with her [Telepathy].
Tang Li Xue replied by nodded her head to Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue thought for a moment and tried to trigger the quest about it.
Ding!
--------------------------------------------------------------
[Quest: (Rescue) Retrieve the egg without triggering anyone''s suspicion!]
[Difficulty: Normal]
[Reward: Level +1, Stat Point +100 (+25), Skill Point +15 (+4), 200(+50) Deity Coins]
Chapter 207 - 207: Miasma!
Chapter 207 - 207: Miasma!
''Oh?! It''s a sess?! But... why is it only a Normal Level Difficulty? A dangerous mission like this should be at Hard Level Difficulty, isn''t it?! Whatever... At least I can get something from saving this ungrateful egg!'' Tang Lu Xue grumbled in her heart while frowned in displeasure.
Tang Li Xue followed Instructor Mei Lan from behind, while both of them followed Councillor Junjie and the other powerful foxes to enter the Auction House''s entrance together.
"Lan''er, I don''t know what you are thinking in that head of yours, but you better always keep your little student close to you. The danger we will meet inside is not something you can imagine!" Councillor Junjie warned Instructor Mei Lan again with a stern tone full of worry.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and decided to ignore it this time.
Instructor Mei Lan already heard this warning for more than a hundred times from Councillor Junjie, and she was even toozy to reply to it now.
Even Tang Li Xue''s lips twitched violently when she heard Councillor Junjie''s repeated warning like a broken clock.
The moment they stepped inside the Auction House, they immediately weed by the overbearing pressure, which pushes them away.
Councillor Junjie and his powerful team instantly used their strength to resist it while protecting Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue from it.
However, some weakened pressures still hit Instructor Mei Lan like rolling waves and made Instructor Mei Lan realized just how terrifying the pressure inside the Auction House was.
When Councillor Junjie and his group entered deeper into the auction house, they were greeted by the thick ck mist like substance.
"What a devastating miasma! Watch out, everyone! Things will start to get nastier from here. Lan''er, we cannotpletely protect you and your student from this miasma, so you must use the defense type treasure I gave to you before to protect both of you." Councillor Junjie instructed Instructor Mei Lan with a solemn expression.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded to Councillor Junjie and took out a silver mirror from her space pouch.
When Instructor Mei Lan injected her vitality energy to the silver mirror, a transparent sphere appeared in an instant, enveloped Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue figures inside it.
Tang Li Xue stared at the silver mirror with eyes full of curiosity but woken up from her daze by Instructor Mei Lan''s sudden question.
"Are you sure that thing inside is really your egg? I don''t mean to doubt your words, but this overwhelming powerful pressure and miasma are so strong. I found it hard to believe that all of these are caused by a mere egg." Instructor Mei Lan asked Tang Li Xue doubtfully with her [Telepathy].
Tang Li Xue''s mastery over her [Telepathy] skill was not as good as Instructor Mei Lan, and she was afraid that her words were heard by everyone here, so she only nodded her head to Instructor Mei Lan.
Actually, Tang Li Xue already tried tomunicate with the glutton egg so many times after she entered the Auction House, but she still has not got any reply from it.
She could sense the glutton egg''s location with their connection clearly, and she could even faintly sense the glutton egg''s current condition.
In fact, the glutton egg felt so full right now, and it got sleepy because of it, so it went sleep at the center of the Auction House without caring any about the consequence.
Councillor Junjie and his powerful team experienced so much difficulty right now because the overwhelming pressure became more and more powerful when they entered deeper into the core area of the Auction House.
The devastating miasma around them also got thicker and thicker.
Many of them could only barely resist the current pressure, and their face turned paler. The devastating miasma seeped bit by bit into their skin, and it made them cough more and more violently.
Even Instructor Mei Lan''s silver mirror could not fully resist the pressure and miasma, forced the Instructor Mei Lan to defend against all of that with her own strength.
Instructor Mei Lan turned her head full of worry to check Tang Li Xue''s condition and got really surprised by what she saw.
Tang Li Xue followed behind them leisurely and looked around with topaz blue eyes full of curiosity as if she did not feel anything at all.
"Little One... you.... you do not feel anything?" One of the people in the team asked Tang Li Xue with a tone full of disbelief.
"Feel what?" Tang Li Xue tilted her head and asked back.
Instructor Mei Lan almost fainted by Tang Li Xue''s clueless question and warned Tang Li Xue with her [Telepathy]: "Silly Xue... can''t you see all of us are in great suffering? At least you can pretend to be suffering like us!"
Tang Li Xue looked at all the people around her and finally realized their pathetic condition. She was the only one who walking leisurely here as if she was sightseeing in the supermarket.
"Oh... Ow, Ow, Ow! Cough, Cough, Cough! Wha... what the hell is this ck smoke?! I... I almost can''t breathe! Wheeze... Wheeze... I... I feel like I am going to die!" Tang Li Xue lowered her head and put an act as if she was suffering greater than them and almost died.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue''s rosy healthy face was hidden by her fox mask, or she could not exin everything, even if she has ten mouths.
This was also not Tang Li Xue''s fault at all since she thought she was safe inside Instructor Mei Lan''s protection sphere, so she did not think anything.
She did not have any clue at all that the overwhelming pressure or devastating miasma here has no effect on her because of her connection with the glutton egg as its current partial master.
Instructor Mei Lan did not know whether she must cry orugh at Tang Li Xue''s exaggerating act.
"If you act so exaggerating like that, they will tell us to go back soon." Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue again with her [Telepathy].
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan had said, Councillor Junjie turned around and ordered Instructor Mei Lan: "Cough... Lan''er, you can see that it''s too dangerous here! Are you really wanted to kill your student?! Cough... Just listen to me this time and go back, okay?"
"You don''t need to worry about me. I am really okay! For the Myriad Foxes Academy''s safety, I am more than willing to sacrifice my life!" Tang Li Xue imitated Instructor Mei Lan''s speech from before and said shamelessly while patting her chest.
Councillor Junjie and his team stared at Tang Li Xue weirdly then stared at Instructor Mei Lan as if trying to ask: ''Is this what you teach to her?''
Councillor Junjie and his team could only shake their head in resignation when they were facing Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue''s stubbornness.
When all of them entered the core za area in the Auction House, the miasma and pressure were so immense that made many of them coughed out a mouthful of ck blood.
All of them immediately activated their respective divine abilities to protect themselves, including Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue did not know what to use, so she activated her [Golden Body] in the end.
Instructor Mei Lan was the weakest among this team after Tang Li Xue, so she was forced to turn back to her fox form. When she was in her fox form, her overall stats were increasing by 3 times.
Tang Li Xue stared at Instructor Mei Lan''s fox form with eyes full of admiration.
Instructor Mei Lan''s fox form was as big as an ox, but her fox''s figure was so slender and elegantpletely opposite of the ox''s robust muscr body.
Most of her furs were ck, but she also had several white striped furs on her back and tails.
''Three tails? So Instructor Mei Lan is only a [Rare] grade fox?!'' Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in surprise.
"You... really do not feel anything from this pressure and miasma?" Instructor Mei Lan inquired Tang Li Xue with her [Telepathy], but her tone was full of amazement.
Tang Li Xue tried to sense carefully if there was something wrong with her body, and she nodded her head toward Instructor Mei Lan after she felt nothing wrong with her body.
"Can you tell that egg of yours to stop producing this miasma? Or decreasing its pressure?" Instructor Mei Lan asked Tang Li Xue secretly again with her [Telepathy].
Tang Li Xue tried tomunicate with the egg again. She has failed, but she managed to get some information about it.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and whispered to Instructor Mei Lan: "I can''t. It ate too many things, and this miasma is like its fart to expel the impurities. It also cannot control this pressure because it is something like burping after eating. All of these are the normal reaction for it."
Instructor Mei Lan almost puked out several mouthfuls of blood when she heard Tang Li Xue''s exnation.
"So we are all already be like this because of that egg''s fart and burp?! Just how strong the creature inside that egg?!" Instructor Mei Lan roared in Tang Li Xue''s mind with her [Telepathy].
Even Tang Li Xue found it hard to believe, and she also started to look forward to the day when that glutton egg hatched!
"All right, everyone! Let''s regroup with the previous group first to get more information! I already contacted them, and they wille to meet with us soon." Councillor Junjie told everybody.
Chapter 208 - 208: Staging A Drama!
Chapter 208 - 208: Staging A Drama!
After waiting for less than ten minutes, the white-haired handsome young man along with several of his shadow guards to meet with Councillor Junjie and his team.
"Greeting to Councillor Junjie and the others Education Councillor Members." the white-haired young man smiled and greeted at them politely. He also held his fist and saluted toward all of them.
The white-haired young man waved his palm and the stream of milky white light entered all of their bodies made them veryfortable, even the miasma effect which wretch havocking their bodies waspletely purified by that milky white light.
Thick ck miasma around them cleared up a lot for a few moments, but it thickened again after the milky white light subsided.
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise and eximed in amazement: ''Woah, this man is so beautiful! Maybe even more beautiful than any girls in this Myriad Foxes Academy! He even has healing type divine ability! His power can even clear the devastating miasma effect!''
For the first time, Tang Li Xue felt really proud of her current exaggerating pretty face since she was still far more beautiful than this man in front of her.
If the beauty in this Myriad Foxes Academy scaled was from 1 to 10, this man''s appearance will be scored 30 out of 10, while Tang Li Xue herself would score 100 out of 10. Both of them surpassed the maximum score but on a different scale.
It would be a big blow to any girls'' confidence if a man could be more beautiful than them after all.
"Young Master Li looks as amazing as always. Really make us the old ones envy you greatly." Councillor Junjieughed at the white-haired young man happily and patted the young man''s shoulder.
The young man only chucked at Councillor Junjie''s praise and looked at them one by one before she spotted Tang Li Xue among them and frowned deeply.
"Little Xue? Why are you doing here? It''s very dangerous here!" The young man reprimanded Tang Li Xue with a harsh tone.
Tang Li Xue frowned in displeasure and puffed her cheek to restrain her anger since she knew all the people here were the important people in Myriad Foxes Academy.
Tang Li Xue took a step back and hid behind her Instructor Mei Lan while kept staring at the handsome man and pondered: ''Eh, wait a minute... why his sound seems so familiar?''
"Hey, Sissy Wei! Little Xue is one of my students, so you don''t have any right to scold her!" Instructor Mei Lan scolded the young man back impolitely.
Instructor Mei Lan even took a step forward and puffed out her furry chest as if she was a prideful hen trying to protect her chick.
"Eh... Young Master Li? Sissy Wei? Eeeeeehhhh!!! Don''t tell me... You are Teacher Li Wei?!" Tang Li Xue shouted while jumped backward in shock and disbelief.
''Woah! So that''s why Teacher Li always wear a mask before?! His face is so beautiful... err... I mean so handsome! He should have so many admirers with that kind of face! Tsk... I should find two or three male concubines like him after I be a proper beast queenter so I can admire them every day. Uwehehehe...'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in admiration and giggling happily at her delusion.
At present, Tang Li Xue did not know how many crazy female admirers like Zi Yan which kept stalking at Teacher Li Wei, or she would never think that having an overly beautiful appearance was a good thing at all.
''But his timing of appearance is not good for me and Instructor Lan...'' Tang Li Xue bit her pinkish lips while staring at Instructor Mei Lan as if she was trying to inquire something from her.
"Don''t mind him. We will proceed like what we have already nned before!" Instructor Mei Lan nodded to Tang Li Xue and whispered using her [Telepathy].
Teacher Li Wei ignored Instructor Mei Lan''s rude response. He could only sigh at Tang Li Xue and warned her sternly once more: "Forget it... No one has any spare time to bring you out since you already here now. Just remember to always keep close with me!"
"Woy, Sissy Wei! Mind your own business! We don''t need your help! I can protect my own student!" Instructor Mei Lan shouted in fury to Teacher Li Wei.
"Lan''er! How could a teacher from Education Department like you speak uncouthful like that?! You must always remember to keep your image as an educator especially in front of your student!" Councillor Junjie scolded Instructor Mei Lan.
"Young Master Li, I will apologize for my daughter''s impoliteness. Her mouth is a bit rude, but I can guarantee she has an honest and kind heart..."?Councillor Junjie apologized while kept praising his own daughter nonstop.
Teacher Li Wei said he did not mind it at all and listened to Councillor Junjie kept praising Instructor Mei Lan nonstop in front of him. He did not have any reaction other than smiling gently and nodded his head once in a while.
Instructor Mei Lan got angrier and angrier when Councillor Junjie kept praising her in front of Teacher Li Wei.
Tang Li Xue found it really funny after she caught some information from their conversation.
In short, Instructor Mei Lan hated Teacher Li Wei very much for some unknown reasons.
While Instructor Mei Lan''s father, Councillor Junjie was trying so hard to matchmaking her daughter, Instructor Mei Lan with Teacher Li Wei.
Of course, Teacher Li Wei did not have any good feelings for Instructor Mei Lan at all and mostly ignored Instructor Mei Lan all the time.
Tang Li Xue was giggling softly while staring at Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei from behind. She thought that both of them will definitely make a good couple.
After meet with Teacher Li Wei, their investigation became a lot easier since Teacher Li Wei''s divine ability could temporarily purify the dangerous miasma around them and clear the effect of miasma in their bodies.
Unfortunately, Teacher Li Wei''s divine ability still could not help them to negate the overwhelming pressure that kept pressing on them.
"Young Master Li, you still do not have any clue about this vile creature whereabouts until now?" One of the people in Councillor Junjie''s team asked.
Teacher Li Wei shook his head and exined: "I already search everywhere around this core area but still failed to find any clue."
Instructor Mei Lan secretly stared at Tang Li Xue while Tang Li Xue pointed her slender index finger to her front and nodded her head.
"AH! Somehow I can hear a voice calling for me from that direction!" Instructor Mei Lan shouted in surprise while holding at her head with one of her paws.
Everyone was startled by Instructor Mei Lan''s sudden shout and staring at her doubtfully.
"Lan''er stop joking around! We are still in an emergency situation right now! This mission is rted to Myriad Foxes Academy''s survival!" Councillor Junjie frowned and reprimanded Instructor Mei Lan with a harsh tone.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and thought: ''Survival my foot! It''s only an egg! But you will never believe me even if I told you...''
"I am not lying to you all! How could I lie in this kind of important mission?! I really hear the sound calling for me from that direction!" Instructor Mei Lan insisted with a tone full of confidence.
"Everyone, I think we can try to follow Miss Lan''s suggestion first. At least it is still a lot better than us searching around blindly like this." Teacher Li Wei advised to Councillor Junjie and his team.
Councillor Junjie and his team hesitated and discussed again for a while before deciding to head towards the direction where Instructor Mei Lan pointed to.
The overwhelming pressure became even more powerful after they were heading toward that direction, and their face because paler and paler including Teacher Li Wei.
Tang Li Xue also decided to transform back into her fox form so her overall stats will be restored back to normal.
Of course, she turned back to her fox form, because she only pretending to be affected by the powerful pressure like the others.
Teacher Li Wei still really worried about Tang Li Xue''s safety, so he used his protection type treasure to protect her too.
Teacher Li Wei threw a silver bell toward Tang Li Xue, the silver bell was floating above Tang Li Xue''s head and covered her with silver light protection.
Tang Li Xue almost blurted out reflexively that she did not need any protection, but she quickly swallowed back her words after realized that even the Councillor Junjie''s powerful team have a hard time resisting the pressure and thanked Teacher Li Wei for it.
"Little Xue, we only have one chance, so don''t miss it! Are you ready now?" Instructor Mei Lan inquired to Tang Li Xue with her [Telepathy].
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned solemn and nodded back to Instructor Mei Lan.
After more than ten minutes of walking slowly in caution, Tang Li Xue finally spotted the glutton egg again that currently hovering in the middle of the za.
Tang Li Xue tugged Instructor Mei Lan''s sleeve lightly while pointing at the glutton egg with her snout.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded silently at Tang Li Xue signaled that she understood, and she took a deep breath.
"AAAAAARRRRGGGGGGHHHHH~~!!!" Instructor Mei Lan screamed suddenly with an ear-piercing voice amplified by many times with her [Heavenly Sound] divine ability.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth to endure the pain in her eardrum and the dizziness in her mind.
Thankfully, she already activated her [Golden Body] beforehand and has Teacher Li Wei''s silver bell protection to reduce the damage taken from it.
While the others focused their attention on Instructor Mei Lan in shock, Tang Li Xue pretended to be blown away by Instructor Mei Lan''s sudden attack and flew toward the glutton egg.
Who knows Teacher Li Wei appeared out of nowhere and caught Tang Li Xue''s furry body before Tang Li Xue could grab the glutton egg with her paws.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to cry so badly right now, but no tears came out.
Instructor Mei Lan already staged such a good opportunity for her, but it was thwarted by Teacher Li Wei''s sudden caring move.
Chapter 209 - 209: The Frightening Prowess of Spirit Beast Form!
Chapter 209 - 209: The Frightening Prowess of Spirit Beast Form!
Instructor Mei Lan took a peek at Tang Li Xue from the corner of her eyes. She immediately realized from Tang Li Xue''s position in Teacher Li Wei''s embrace and her pitiful stare that their first n had already failed.
''Sigh... I know it will not be so easy. n B then!'' Instructor Mei Lan gritted her teeth and started to howl loudly as if she was being possessed by the evil spirit.
.....
...
.
An hour ago at Tang Li Xue''s living room...
"Acting as if you are being possessed by the powerful evil spirit?" Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise.
"Yes, we have no choice if our first n failed. Sigh... I do not want to do this too, but you said, only you can sense that egg location and retrieve it back along with its evil presence and immense pressure."?Instructor Mei Lan said in frustration while keep rubbing her forehead with her slender fingers.
"But... Instructor Mei Lan... what if the higher-ups suspected youter?" Tang Li Xue asked with a tone full of worry.
Instructor Mei Lan waved her palm signaled Tang Li Xue not to worry and exined: "You do not need to worry about me. Both of my parents are also higher-ups in Myriad Foxes Academy of Lightwind Continent Branch here. The other higher-ups will probably decide to only quarantine and inspect me closely for some time before releasing me. They will never dare to do anything to me."
Instructor Mei Lan stared at Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression and continued: "But you are different! You have no strong backing like me in Myriad Foxes Academy. It will be your dead end if the higher-ups are suspecting you in cahoots with evil being from the Undead Race. They would probably kill you on the spot without even bothering to inspect you."
"Instructor Lan... but... there is no need for you to go this far. I... I can stealthy go there by myself and retrieve the egg." Tang Li Xue''s eyes reddened. She felt really touched by Instructor Mei Lan''s sacrifice and care for her.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and replied: "You think the higher-ups are that fool? Even I can see through your stealth-type divine ability let alone them! Once they caught you there, your life will definitely over!"
"But..." Tang Li Xue murmured while trying to think of another way out.
"There is no but! You only need to do what I told you. I will act as if I am being possessed by an evil being, and you will take that chance to retrieve that egg." Instructor Mei Lan interrupted Tang Li Xue''s words.
"All of the higher-ups including my father will be there, so they could definitely restrain me in a few seconds. You must take this chance when everyone''s attention is focusing on me to take that egg back and also remember to wait for the right timing before retrieving that egg!" Instructor Mei Lan continued to exin her n once again.
Actually, Instructor Mei Lan has many other ns in her mind, and this ''possessed'' n was the most stupid one among all of her ns. But this ''possessed'' n also the one which carried the least risk for any higher-ups to suspect Tang Li Xue.
Even if the higher-ups interrogated Instructor Mei Lanter, she could easily lie her way out by saying she could not remember anything when she was being possessed by the evil being.
.....
...
.
Currently, at the core area in the middle of the za inside the Auction House...
Teacher Li Wei injected his healing power into Tang Li Xue''s furry body to heal her wound from Instructor Mei Lan''s [Heavenly Sound] sudden attack.
"GGGGRRRRRR~~!!!" Instructor Mei Lan growled menacingly at them. Her pair of eyes turnedpletely red like blood, and she looked extremely intimidating in her ox-sized fox form.
Instructor Mei Lan''s acting was so convincing if Tang Li Xue did not know that Instructor Mei Lan was only acting beforehand, she would probably think that Instructor Mei Lan was really possessed by a powerful evil spirit now.
"Lan''er? What are you..." Councillor Junjie tried to approach Instructor Mei Lan full of worry.
RRRROOOOOAAAAAARRRRRR~~!!!
Instructor Mei Lan roared loudly, and several hundreds of thin sharp swords instantly formed using her [Vibration Construct].
"Old Jun, watch out!" One of the people in Councillor Junjie shouted from behind to warn him.
They stepped forward and wanted to help Councillor Junjie, but Councillor Junjie raised one of his hands to stop them.
Councillor Junjie''s eyes turned serious under Instructor Mei Lan''s killing move, and one hundred meters tall ethereal ck fox avatar instantly condensed around his body.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
Several hundreds of thin sharp swords crashed onto Councillor Junjie''s ethereal ck fox avatar and all of it shattered like fragile ss unable to even touch his skin.
Tang Li Xue took this chance to wiggle out from Teacher Li Wei''s embrace and jumped down to the ground.
Tang Li Xue nned to silently retrieve the egg back into her system inventory, but she could not take her eyes off from the scene in front of her.
Tang Li Xue took a peek at the ethereal ck fox avatar''s tails and eximed in shock: ''Four tails! So powerful! Is this the Spirit Beast Form? Oh crap, it seems Instructor Lan could not hold it any longer! I have no more time to waste! I must hurry!''
Tang Li Xue did not want Teacher Li Wei to get in her way again, so she silently activated her [Ethereal Form] and her furry figure vanished into thin air.
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan has predicted, no one here has any time to pay any attention to the vanishing Tang Li Xue when Instructor Mei Lan was rampaging around and attacking everybody.
Instructor Mei Lan roared loudly again while using her [Demonic Tune] and [Heavenly Sound] at the same time at full power.
The astounding destructive power of sound was spreading out made the extremely hard tiles below her feet and everything around her shredded into dust.
Unfortunately, even the powerful attack at that scale still failed to touch Councillor Junjie, who currently stood straight at the center of the ethereal ck fox avatar.
Councillor Junjie stretched out his right hand towards Instructor Mei Lan, and his ethereal ck fox avatar also followed his movement then stretched out his right paw towards Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan growled and wanted to teleport away using her skill to dodge, but she could not even move any of her muscles at all as if the ethereal ck fox avatar locked the space around her using its power ofw!
BOOOOOOMMMMM~~!!!
The giant paw of the ethereal ck fox avatar pinned down Instructor Mei Lan''s furry figure without leaving her any room for struggling.
"Young Master Li! Can you please check what happens to Lan''er and see if you can treat her back to normal?" Councillor Junjie asked Teacher Li Wei with an anxious tone.
Teacher Li Wei nodded to Councillor Junjie with a solemn expression and carefully approached Instructor Mei Lan.
While Tang Li Xue already arrived beside the egg and ready to retrieve back the egg into her system inventory since a half-second ago, but she was still waiting patiently for the right timing.
Teacher Li Wei touched Instructor Mei Lan''s forehead, and the pure milky white light shone from his palm.
Tang Li Xue immediately touched the egg with her paw and stored it in her system inventory made the thick ck miasma and overwhelming pressure inside the auction housepletely vanished in an instant.
Instructor Mei Lan, Councillor Junjie, Teacher Li Wei, and the others felt reallyfortable as if the heavy mountain has been lifted off from their shoulders.
"The miasma and pressure have vanished?"
"It''s already over just like that?"
"Maybe the evil creature is scared of us after watching Old Jun''s power and decided to hide for now! We cannot let our guard down yet!"
"So what should we do now? Continue our investigation to find the clue about that evil creature whereabouts?"
Councillor Junjie''s team started to discuss noisily with each other while Councillor Junjie himself canceled his ethereal ck fox avatar and approached Instructor Mei Lan to check her condition.
"Thank you very much to Young Master Li for helping our family, Lan''er. Your purification and healing type divine abilities are astounding as always!" Councillor Junjie sighed in relief after he made sure that Instructor Mei Lan was alright and thanked Teacher Li Wei politely.
Teacher Li Wei was still in deep thought. He quickly shook his head and quickly exined: "It''s not me. In fact, I did not detect any evil presence from Miss Lan at all previously. I only cast a healing spell to heal her wounds before."
"Eh? Then how could..." Councillor Junjie frowned deeply and wanted to ask back, but he was interrupted by someone''s shout.
"INSTRUCTOR LAN!!!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a tone full of worry and anxiety after she canceled her [Ethereal Form] and changed back into her human form then wore back her mask.
Tang Li Xue ran towards Instructor Mei Lan and pretended to be so sad.
"Urgh..." Instructor Mei Lan slowly opened her eyes and changed back to her human form.
"What happens? How could I suddenly fell unconscious here?" Instructor Mei Lan got up from the ground and held her forehead. She put on a grimaced expression as if she was having a great headache.
"Kid, the first thing for you to remember is to never take that thing out again except in your room since there is a spatial formation there that separates the house inside the room with space outside. Second, only the two of us could know about this thing, so never tell the third person. Lastly, if you dare to lose that thing again, I will make sure to skin you alive!" Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue with a stern tone using her [Telepathy].
Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue thought this problem will end here, but they will never guess that this problem will blow out and create a bigger problem for them in the near future.
Chapter 210 - 210: Another Challenge!
Chapter 210 - 210: Another Challenge!
Ding!
[Quest Completed!]
[Gained: Level +1, Stat Point +100 (+25), Skill Point +15 (+4), 200(+50) Deity Coins]
Ding!
[Congrattion! You have achieved level 6! Stats Point +100, Skill Point +15]
Tang Li Xue grasped her fist in excitement when she finallypleted the quest from her system.
Instructor Mei Lan offered to escort Tang Li Xue back, but Teacher Li Wei, Councillor Junjie, and the others strongly rejected that idea because they were worried if Instructor Mei Lan would go berserk again.
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan has predicted before, they nned to put her in quarantine for some time to observe her closely if being possessed by that evil being will bring some negative effect to her or not.
"Don''t bezy just because I don''t watch over all of you! Remember to keep attending Mixed sses if I am not there to teach you all!" Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue and told her to tell the others.
In the end, Teacher Li Wei was the one who escorted Tang Li Xue back to Residential Building.
Teacher Li Wei flicked at Tang Li Xue''s forehead gently andughed mischievously at her. He also warned Tang Li Xue: "Remember to not bete again for your Inscription Lesson tomorrow, or I will punish you this time!"
Teacher Li Wei''s flick made a tinkling sound when it hit Tang Li Xue''s fox mask. Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead and puffed her cheek in annoyance while staring at Teacher Li Wei resentfully, but Teacher Li Wei already walked away from her.
Tang Li Xue entered her room and inserted her bronze card into the tiny ck box behind the room''s door.
Tang Li Xue could only sigh in relief after she entered her bedroom andy down on her bed.
Tang Li Xue took off her fox mask and wiped her cold sweat with her long-sleeve before she took out the glutton egg from her system inventory to check its current state.
The moment when Tang Li Xue took the egg out, her entire house shook violently under the immense pressure and made rumbling sounds as if it could crumble down anytime.
The thick ck miasma started to spread out in an instant to the entire house and finally even filled the courtyard.
Tang Li Xue tried tomunicate with the glutton egg in her grasp using their mind connection, but it still did not respond at all.
''It seems this glutton egg is entering deep hibernation after consuming so many beast cores and precious treasures.'' Tang Li Xue thought for a while before she bit the tip of her index finger and dripped her blood onto the glutton egg.
BADUM! BADUM! BADUM! BADUM! BADUM!
After Tang Li Xue''s blood was absorbed by the glutton egg, she could faintly feel the powerful heartbeat full of vitalitying from within the glutton egg.
For some unknown reasons, Tang Li Xue felt that she must pour much more of her blood onto the glutton egg.
Tang Li Xue followed her instinct and used her sharp ws to slice her wrist.
Tang Li Xue''s fresh blood streamed down, bathed the glutton egg in that crimson thick liquid.
CCCCRRRRSSSSSS~~!!!
When Tang Li Xue''s warm fresh blood met with the glutton egg, it made the loud sizzling sound as if a hot piece of metal drenched with cold water.
The glutton egg kept greedily absorbing Tang Li Xue''s warm fresh blood.
The surrounding ck thick miasma and overwhelming pressure were getting lighter and lighter, while the heartbeat from within the glutton egg was getting more and more powerful.
Tang Li Xue''s [Regeneration] skill automatically activated, and it healed the wound at her wrist in a few seconds.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and sliced her wrist again with her sharp w, then poured out her blood onto the glutton egg.
She kept repeating this many times for almost an hour until the glutton egg felt satisfied and stopped absorbing her fresh blood.
If it was not for her powerful [Regeneration] skill, which kept regenerating the fresh blood within her body, Tang Li Xue would already have dried up.
The immense pressure and thick ck miasma from the egg were alsopletely vanished, but the ck runes on the egg''s surface were getting more and more dense and profound.
Even Tang Li Xue will feel dizziness and nausea if she stared at the ck runes on the egg''s surface for more than a few seconds.
"Sigh... Glutton egg, you already eat so many good things and drink so much of my blood, you must hatch quickly and grow stronger so you can help me in battle like Yaya and Phoenix of Pride!" Tang Li Xue whispered to the egg and rubbed it gently before stored it back into her system inventory.
Tang Li Xue did not forget to add her free Stat Points bit by bit into her Spirit Stat, but she immediately stopped when she felt the headache got too unbearable, and she almost fainted.
In the end, she managed to add 30 free Stat Points into her Spirit Stat increased it from 270 to 300, and felt her mind got a bit sharper than before.
After pondering it for a while, Tang Li Xue decided not to sleep for tonight and continued her cultivation using the stockpile of her low-tier spirit stones until morning.
Ding!
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level achieved the Rank 9 Qi Condensation Stage! All stat +200]
"Sigh... It''s quite long, but I finally manage to reach the Rank 9 Qi Condensation Stage! I only need 1 more level to reach the peak of Qi Condensation Stage, and then I can break through to Acupuncture Opening Stage!" Tang Li Xue muttered in excitement, and a beautiful smile has bloomed on her face.
"Should I use this [Level Up Pill] to increase my cultivation level?" Tang Li Xue tapped her chin and considered it for a few moments.
[Level Up Pill]: Increases the level of the one who eats it by 1 level.
Tang Li Xue has 5 of these [Level Up Pills] in her system inventory and feels really reluctant to consume it now because she felt it was kind of a waste to use it now. She would rather use itter after she reached the higher level since she would need a monstrous amount of EXP to level up by then.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and gritted her teeth in reluctance, but she still decided to save these 5 [Level Up Pills] forter.
Tang Li Xue continued her cultivation session, and unknowingly, the morning has arrived.
For the first time, Tang Li Xue felt really lonely without Yaya''s presence.
She peeked at Yaya''s current condition and find out that Yaya was still suffering from the [War Goddess Mode] bacsh. It seems her perfect copy, Yaya, and Phoenix of Pride need two more days to recover from it.
Tang Li Xue took a bath before went out of her room and met with everyone. She also conveyed Instructor Mei Lan''s message to everyone about Instructor Mei Lan''s quarantine, and they all must attend the Mixed ss until Instructor Mei Lan finished her quarantine period and came out.
Hei Yinghao, Bing Yi, Li Jing, and the others asked Tang Li Xue about what happened to Instructor Mei Lanst night, but Tang Li Xue did not dare to tell them any of it since it concerned Instructor Mei Lan''s reputation. Especially when the loose mouthed Huang Hao was here with them!
When Tang Li Xue and her group arrived at Education Building''s entrance, she was obstructed again but by three people this time.
Tang Li Xue observed them for a moment.
One woman, two men.
The woman was quite a beauty with long braided red hair. She looked seductive but heroic.
One of the men was chubby with ponytailed blue hair, but his face was really expressionless as if it was carved from the wood.
However, their leader was clearly the man who stood in the middle of those two. He has short tidy hair but long bangs with a cold smile on his face.
All three of them wore ck robes, so they were actually the students from the Elite ss!
"MOGUI!" Hei Yinghao, Bing Yi, Li Jing, and the others shouted angrily and instantly put up their guards to the maximum.
Tang Li Xue only frowned a bit, and she crossed her hands then asked: "We are busy right now, so you all better tell us quickly what do you all want?!"
The short-haired man, Mogui stepped closer to Tang Li Xue, but Hei Yinghao immediately stepped forward to stop him from approaching Tang Li Xue.
BBBAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
No one knew what Mogui has done, but Hei Yinghao''s body flew several meters backward and crashed hard onto the Nine-Tailed Fox statue at the entrance.
Hei Yinghao coughed out several mouthfuls of blood and staring at Mogui angrily.
Mogui kept approaching Tang Li Xue step by step with a cold smile on his face, but Tang Li Xue did not flinch or step back at all. She only stared back at Mogui coldly.
Sniff... Sniff... Sniff...
Mogui sniffed at Tang Li Xue''s pleasant fragrance from few inches away and sneered.
"I smell my brother''s blood from you. It''s you, isn''t it? The one who killed my little brother?" Mogui asked Tang Li Xue with his monotonous hoarse tone.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and pondered: ''Can he really smell his little brother''s blood from me, or is he only bluffing at me? I really doubt it if he really can smell it... I fought with that [Demonic Blood Fox] more than a month ago after all!''
Chapter 211 - 211: Formal Etiquette!
Chapter 211 - 211: Formal Etiquette!
After thinking it for a while, Tang Li Xue decided to tell Mogui the truth since she did not kill the [Demonic Blood Fox] with her own hands after all.
"I did not kill your little brother. He is the one who wanted to kill me first, and then we fought. I managed to defeat him, but he ran away sessfully from me at that time. Unfortunately, he was killed by humans instead." Tang Li Xue told everything to Mogui leisurely.
Mogui silently stared at Tang Li Xue for a few moments to judge if she was telling the truth or lying to him.
"You do not need to worry. I already ughtered almost all humans at the second trial, so it could be said that I already took revenge for your little brother. You do not need to thank me for that, but if you really want to thank me so badly, you can give me several tens of thousands of credits. I will never refuse your gift of gratitude." Tang Li Xue giggled and shamelessly asked for the reward.
Moguiughed too when he heard Tang Li Xue''s shameless words.
"You are really a funny one. We can be good friends." Mogui said slowly with a smile on his face.
"Unfortunately, you were the main cause of my little brother''s death, so I have to make you regret that you did it." Mogui''s smile vanishedpletely and was reced by a cold expressionless face.
Tang Li Xue frowned and tried to deny it: "I already said, I am not the one who..."
"But my little brother will never be killed by those weak humans if you did not defeat him beforehand!" Mogui interrupted Tang Li Xue''s words and stated his reason.
Tang Li Xue chuckled and replied with a cold tone: "Oh, so you think I should just stand there silently and let him kill me without resisting at all? Who do you think you and your little brother are to act so arrogant here? The sole owner of this Myriad Foxes Academy?"
"I challenge you and your team, do you dare to ept it?" Mogui did not bother to answer Tang Li Xue''s sarcasm and directly challenge her with his hoarse cold voice.
After winning the sparring matches for more than three times in a row, Tang Li Xue''s team could not refuse Mogui''s challenge, so she tried to increase the bet instead.
"It will be too boring and a waste of my precious time to fight without betting anything. Do you dare to bet 10,000 credits?" Tang Li Xue asked with azy tone.
"I will bet 50,000 credits! Deal?" Mogui sneered coldly at Tang Li Xue and increased the bet even more.
"Deal! But my team is really busy in these three days, so our sparring match will be held three dayster!" Tang Li Xue nodded in agreement, but she tried to postpone the sparring match until her perfect copy recoveredpletely from the bacsh of [War Goddess Mode].
Mogui frowned deeper and tried to argue: "Three days are too long! I will only wait until tomorrow!"
"Our internal organs are still injured after thest sparring match. Are all of you as the noble and lofty Elite ss Students shameless enough to challenge injured people?" Tang Li Xue sneered while staring at Mogui with eyes full of disdain.
Mogui gritted his teeth and held back his anger, and said with a tone full of rage: "All right! Three days from now on, I will wait for you all on the second floor! All of you better prepare more credits to pay for your medical treatment, or you all will not be able to walk back home! Humph!"
Mogui turned away in fury and walked away along with two other people from his team.
Tang Li Xue tried to peek at Mogui''s team status with her basic [All Knowing Eyes], but unfortunately, she failed to see anything.
In fact, Tang Li Xue''s basic [All Knowing Eyes] could not see anyone''s status ever since she entered this Myriad Foxes Academy.
Tang Li Xue suspected that everyone''s badge just like her bronze badge was actually protecting them from any peeking-type ability like her basic [All Knowing Eyes].
Tang Li Xue could only sigh in resignation and pondered: ''This basic [All Knowing Eyes] is getting more and more useless! I must find a way to upgrade it as soon as possible...''
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and the others approached Hei Yinghao then asked for his condition worriedly.
Hei Yinghao only shook his head and talked to Tang Li Xue full of worry: "Xue, he is very strong. I am afraid we are not their match. I and Ice Girl will be fine, but that guy has a really deep grudge against you. What if he tried to kill you in the sparring matchter? I..."
"You don''t need to worry about me. Let''s enter our mixed ss for today now before we are toote!" Tang Li Xue waved her palm in a rxed manner and urged them to enter the ss now.
Hei Yinghao, Bing Yi, Li Jing, and the others still felt really worried about Tang Li Xue, but they still followed her words and entered today''s mixed ssroom.
No Executor ss Students dared to challenge Tang Li Xue and her team anymore today, but they still stared at Tang Li Xue and her team with eyes filled with anger.
On contrary, the Inspector ss Students looked at Tang Li Xue and her team with eyes full of admiration.
Tang Li Xue did not have any free time to worry about their stares, because she was actually felt really worried in her heart!
50,000 credits was not a small sum at all!
Almost all Elite ss Students were already in the [Rare] grade, so ording to Tang Li Xue''s guess, Mogui and his team should be already in the [Rare] grade too.
Compared with Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao, who were still in the [Umon] grade, their difference was quite huge!
Moreover, Mogui and his team already received longer education at Myriad Foxes Academypared to Tang Li Xue''s team and Elite sses always received the best education and treatmentpared to the other two sses, Inspector ss and Executor ss.
Although, Mogui and his team were still far weaker than Instructor Mei Lan, but Tang Li Xue could not use her [Divine Possession] with Yaya or her me of Pride when she was facing themter.
''Even with my perfect copy''s help, my chance of winning is only up to 40-50 percent at most.'' Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead and tried to simte the sparring match in her mind.
Although, Tang Li Xue did not know the true ability of Mogui and his team but [Spirit Perception] could help her vaguely predict the match.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could forcefully hold back two people, but Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao would certainly lose sooner orter, and after that, the match would go out of control until she was defeated too in the end!
While Tang Li Xue was still contemting how she could win against Mogui and his team, the teacher for mixed ss today has already entered the ssroom.
Today''s teacher was actually quite familiar with Tang Li Xue and the others.
It was the teacher with green short hair, Su Jian. The one who taught them about Immortal World''s Topography before.
She still wore a light green dress as usual. Even her simple and approachable aura was still radiating strongly like always, but no student dared to disrespect or look down on this female teacher after she has beaten the one of Elite ss Students before.
"Good morning, everyone! I am your teacher for today''s mixed ss, Su Jian. You can call me Teacher Su. Today, I will teach all of you about the formal etiquette among Beast ns. This lesson is quite important, so please pay attention carefully!" Teacher Su introduced herself with her usual soothing voice and even showed them her simple smile filled with kindness.
''Eh? Formal etiquette among Beast ns? Interesting!'' Tang Li Xue raised her eyebrow and smiled in curiosity. She decided to pay more attention to the lesson.
"We foxes from the Fox n have never cared about this formal etiquette, but the other Beast ns are different, some of them are even very concerned about this." Teacher Su exined patiently with a soothing tone.
"First rule and the most important rule in formal etiquette is to introduce yourself using your species name, not your real name. The beast races only call their close friends by their real name! So remember, if you met with the other beast races mention your species name to introduce yourself, not your real name!" Teacher Su warned all the students with a stern tone.
One of the red-robed students raised her hand and asked curiously: "Teacher Su, why we must mention our species name and not our real name?"
Teacher Su chuckled and answered: "Hehe... The reason is actually very simple. It is because our ancestor was the nine-tailed divine fox, so no matter what the other call us, we are still foxes. But imagine if you call Golden Crow''s Descendant as Fire Chicken? I bet they would skin you alive on the spot."
Most of the students in the ssroomughed loudly at Teacher Su''s exnation.
"The situation is bad too if you call the Fire Chicken as Golden Crow''s Descendant because it means you belittle the Golden Crow n, and their n would probably hunt you down fiercely. So remember to never call the other Beast Races'' species incorrectly. If you all don''t know his or her species then you can just call them by ''You'', ''Fellow Beast'', or ''Comrade''." Teacher Su continued her exnation.
Chapter 212 - 212: Tang Li Xues Crazy Idea!
Chapter 212 - 212: Tang Li Xue''s Crazy Idea!
Teacher Su kept exining the formal etiquette one by one, but the rest of them were the obvious ones, such as not stepping into thend under the reign of the other Beast ns without permission, not to approach the unfamiliar members of the other Beast ns carelessly within five steps, and so on.
The mixed ss lesson for today was pretty boring, but Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the others still listen to it attentively because these kinds of unspoken rules were actually very important when they were traveling outside of Myriad Foxes Academy in the future.
After concluding her lesson about the formal etiquette, Teacher Su gave all of the students in the ssroom the chance to ask anything they did not understand about today''s lesson.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue and the others did not have any mood to ask anything, since their minds were still heavily upied by their sparring match against Mogui''s team three dayster.
''Sigh... it seems I must rely on my inscription again this time. I should try to inscribe several powerful buff talismans to enhance the overall strength of my perfect copy and me... Wait, I also must enhance the strength of Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao to increase our odds of winning!'' Tang Li Xue pondered when Teacher Su closed up the question and answer session then went out of the ssroom with the others.
Tang Li Xue quickly bid her farewell to Bing Yi and the others, because she still has Teacher Li Wei''s Inscription lesson to attend, and she also nned to ask Teacher Li Wei for some advice to raise her chance of winning.
"What a miracle! So you are not toote today. Let me guess... you must have something to ask or request from me. Am I right?" Teacher Li Wei stated while chuckling at Tang Li Xue.
Teacher Li Wei wore back his usual fox mask today to hide his handsome face.
Tang Li Xue pouted at Teacher Li Wei, but she really could not deny it since she really wanted to ask something to raise her chance of winning.
Tang Li Xue told Teacher Li Wei everything about what happened in this morning and Mogui''s challenge to her team.
"Teacher Li, can you teach me some powerful runes so I can make some talismans from it to defeat themter?" Tang Li Xue asked Teacher Li Wei with a pleading tone.
Teacher Li Weiughed at Tang Li Xue and teased her: "Do you think it is so easy to sessfully inscribe higher ranking talisman? Besides that, using talismans could only raise your strength by a bit, and it still cannot bridge the gap between Demonic Beast and Beast Lord. Do you know why?"
"Because Beast Lord''s strength is far more powerful than Demonic Beast?" Tang Li Xue replied with a puzzled tone.
Teacher Li Wei shook his head and exined: "If the difference between the two of them are only about strength, speed, and toughness, it definitely can be covered by powerful buff talismans and clever strategy. Unfortunately, the gap between beast ranks is farrger than that!"
"The biggest gap between them lies in their divine ability. You should already know each time any beast evolves, they will have a chance to get more divine ability. Moreover, the Elite Students from Elite sses have a minimum of 2 divine abilities that empower each other." Teacher Li Wei reminded Tang Li Xue while led her to the empty ssroom.
Tang Li Xue almost wanted to p herself, how could she forget about this Divine Abilities Set.
From Teacher Li Wei''s exnation, all of the Elite Students would at least have two divine abilities in one set just like Instructor Mei Lan''s [Demonic Tune] and [Heavenly Sound].
''Sigh... What a troublesome opponents!'' Tang Li Xue sighed in exasperation.
"So all Elite Students have two divine abilities or more in one set like all the teachers have?" Tang Li Xue asked Teacher Li Wei to confirm her suspicion.
Teacher Li Wei chuckled at Tang Li Xue''s question and answered: "You are looking down too much on the teacher in the Education Department. How could youpare the teachers and students? All teachers are definitely far stronger than any students. In fact, all beast lord rank teachers in the Education Department are already in the bottleneck, they only need onest step to evolve into Spirit Beast."
Tang Li Xue nodded in realization and thought: ''So the beast lord rank teachers in the Education Department only need to wait for the chance to evolve into Spirit Beast!''
"Teacher Li Wei, is there any simple way to defeat the team from Elite ss?" Tang Li Xue asked Teacher Li Wei with a pleading gaze.
Teacher Li Wei smiled gently at Tang Li Xue and replied: "Of course there is only one way!"
"Really?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in surprise, and her topaz blue eyes shone brighter in anticipation.
Teacher Li Wei nodded while keep smiling at Tang Li Xue.
"Just make your team evolve into Beast Lord Rank too." Teacher Li Weiughed jokingly at Tang Li Xue.
"Make them... evolve... into... Beast Lord Rank..." Tang Li Xue murmured and felt as if lighting struck her mind as the crazy idea appeared in her mind so suddenly from Teacher Li Wei''s joke.
"Oh, My God! I really can''t believe that I am so stupid! How could I not think of a simple solution like this?!" Tang Li Xue shouted dumbfoundedly and immediately stood up from her seat.
"Teacher Li, I am so sorry! I have another urgent matter to attend to today, so I must skip your lesson today! I promise I will make it up tomorrow!" Tang Li Xue did not wait for Teacher Li Wei''s reply and dashed out from the ssroom, leaving the astonished Teacher Li Wei alone in the ssroom.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue went out of Education Building as fast as she could and tried her hardest to catch up after Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
But Tang Li Xue failed to find them even after she reached the Residential Building.
''Oh right, they must be eating their lunch in the restaurant on the first floor!'' Tang Li Xue entered the Residential Building and heading straight to the luxurious restaurant.
"Eh, Little Xue? Aren''t you said that you must attend the Inscription Lesson with Teacher Li now?" Li Jing noticed Tang Li Xue entered the luxurious restaurant and asked curiously.
"Ah, I cancel it for today! Where are Silly Fox and Bingbing go?" Tang Li Xue looked around, but she only saw Li Jing, Huang Hao, and Gan Aomiao in the restaurant, so she asked them.
"I asked them to eat with us before, but they refused it. They said they wanted to use all of their time to practice together for three days so they would not get beaten up so badlyter. I think they are probably in their room right now." Li Jing replied Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue bid Li Jing and the others farewell and heading to their room.
Tang Li Xue decided to knock on Hei Yinghao''s door and Bing Yi''s door several times, but no one responded.
Tang Li Xue did not give up and kept knocking because she was sure that Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi would definitely practice very hard right now in their rooms.
"Who the hell are..." Bing Yi yelled out in anger while opened the door of Hei Yinghao''s room.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently when she saw Bing Yi''s current condition.
Bing Yi currently wore very messy clothes, and she was drenched with sweat.
"Little... Little... Xue! Wha... Why are you here?" Bing Yi asked in panic and quickly tidied her clothes.
"Huff... Huff... Who knocked on my door?" Hei Yinghao asked while panting heavily and full of sweat.
Current Hei Yinghao wore untidy loose clothes. His six-pack abs and slender muscr body were visible through the gap of his clothes.
"X...Xue! Why are you here?!" Hei Yinghao also asked in panic and fixed his clothes in hurry.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently again.
''Why does it seem like I caught these two people in a.d.u.l.tery?!''
''You only have an intense sparring session together, right? Why do you two need to be that panic when I saw you two?!''
''Sigh... Why does this scene feel like in the drama where the girlfriend caught her boyfriend and her best friend cheating? Oh well, whatever...'' Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead and sighed in resignation.
Actually, Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi were training very hard, but they did not n to tell Tang Li Xue at all about this because they were afraid that Tang Li Xue will be anxious like them too if they told her how strong Mogui and his team were.
Tang Li Xue waved her palm and smiled at them while exined: "I skip my Inscription Lesson for today because I suddenly thought of a n to increase our winning chance against Mogui''s teamter."
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi stared at each other in confusion before invited Tang Li Xue to enter Hei Yinghao''s room too.
All of them sat together in Hei Yinghao''s living room.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi stared at Tang Li Xue with impatient shone from their eyes.
Tang Li Xueughed at their funny impatient expression and said: "What if I said that I can make the two of you evolve into [Rare]... err... I mean into Beast Lord right now? Do you two believe me?"
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi widened their eyes and dropped their jaws in shock and disbelief.
"Little Xue, you... you are really not joking, right?" Bing Yi stuttered and asked with a doubtful tone.
"I always believe in Xue! No, I always 100% believe in Xue''s words!" Hei Yinghao said with a tone full of confidence and trust.
Tang Li Xue only smiled at their reply.
It was impossible for anyone to help the other to evolve, but Tang Li Xue was different!
Because she has [Level Up Pill] in her possession!
Chapter 213 - 213: Hei Yinghaos Crisis!
Chapter 213 - 213: Hei Yinghao''s Crisis!
"If you can really trust me, then give your badge to me. I will hold it for you now, and I will give it back to you after you sessfully evolve." Tang Li Xue stared at them while kept smiling.
"Only that? There is no other requirement?" Bing Yi asked with a puzzled tone while taking out her bronze badge from her space pouch.
But when Bing Yi almost gave it to Tang Li Xue, Hei Yinghao quickly intercepted Tang Li Xue. He did not let Tang Li Xue took Bing Yi''s badge.
"Silly fox? What are you..." Tang Li Xue asked in a slightly angry tone, but before she finished her words, Hei Yinghao interrupted her words halfway.
"Xue, please tell me honestly. What you will do next would not bring you some inconvenience or danger, right? I never heard that someone can help the other evolve before, and I would rather not evolve further for the rest of my life if that needs you to sacrifice something important to you like your lifespan or strength." Hei Yinghao said to Tang Li Xue with a solemn tone full of determination.
Tang Li Xue stunned for a few moments, and her heart was flooding with warmness. Her heart was extremely touched by Hei Yinghao''s concern for her.
It was clear that Hei Yinghao was very worried if Tang Li Xue will sacrifice something important for her to help them evolve further.
Tang Li Xue felt that Hei Yinghao was very identical to her big brother in this aspect. Both of them were funny and silly, but they cherish her a lot.
Tang Li Xue chuckled gently at Hei Yinghao''s worried expression and thought: ''This Silly Fox is quite cute like this. Maybe adding him as one of my future male concubines is not a bad choice.''
It was unknown if Hei Yinghao would be angry, sad, or happy if he found out what Tang Li Xue was thinking right now.
"You do not need to worry about me. I will be fine. I have some pills which could help any beast to evolve once. I already use it once, so I cannot use it anymore. But I still need to check if you two fulfill all the requirements for the evolution first before make you consume it. That''s why I need you two to let me hold your badge first so I can check your condition." Tang Li Xue giggled while leisurely exined to them to ease their worry.
Of course, Tang Li Xue lied to them. Any [Level Up Pill] was really precious for her too, but if she told them that the pills could also help her be stronger or even evolve further in the future, these two will certainly refuse her offer and tell her to use it for herself.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi sighed in relief after they heard Tang Li Xue''s exnation.
Both of them took out their bronze badge and gave it to Tang Li Xue voluntarily.
"But I want you two to remember! This will be the secret between us, so never tell this to anyone! Not even to Li Jing and the others, understand?! If anyone asked you two about it, just tell them that the pressure from the sparring match against the Elite ss Team triggered your potential and made you two evolve further." Tang Li Xue reminded them with a stern tone.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi nodded simultaneously to Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression like a pair of woodpeckers.
Tang Li Xue giggled at their reaction and activated her basic [All Knowing Eyes].
''I only have five [Level Up Pills] in my system inventory. Hopefully, it is enough to help these two evolve into [Rare] grade beast!'' Tang Li Xue thought nervously while checked at their stats.
-----------------------------------------------
[Species: Fox Sith (Two-Tailed)]
[Qualification: Lord]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 40]
[HP: 48,600/48,600]
------------------------------------------------
[Species: White cial Fox (Two-Tailed)]
[Qualification: Elite]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 38]
[HP: 28,300/28,300]
-------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she inspected their current level with her Basic [All Knowing Eyes].
''Silly Fox is already in bottleneck to the next grade. He probably only needs 1 [Level Up Pill] to evolve. Bingbing is still a bit far, so she needs 3 [Level Up Pill] to evolve. Urgh... So I need to use 4 [Level Up Pills] for them! I can level up 4 levels with that... Sigh... It''s quite hurt...'' Tang Li Xue grumbled in her heart, but she quickly shook her head to push away all the bad thoughts.
''How could I think like that?! These two are my preciousrades. I will probably need to go with them toplete the dangerous mission outside the Myriad Foxes Academy in the future.'' Tang Li Xue thought while smiled at Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
"Bingbing will go to the back courtyard, and Silly Fox will go to the front courtyard. Prepare yourself! The evolution process can be really dangerous without any proper preparation! We will immediately begin when you are ready!" Tang Li Xue instructed them while throwing their badges in her hands into her space pouch.
Actually, Tang Li Xue was overestimating the evolution process of the other beasts. It was true they will feel a lot of pain and itchiness, but no beast would face such a dangerous heaven-defying phenomenon like Tang Li Xue, because only Tang Li Xue had an OP system, divine treasure, and several powerful pets.
After an hour or so, Tang Li Xue went to the front courtyard to meet with the Silly Fox.
"Are you ready?" Tang Li Xue asked Hei Yinghao with a solemn expression.
Hei Yinghao slowly opened his obsidian ck eyes and kept staring at Tang Li Xue''s beautiful slender figure for a few moments as if he wanted to etch her perfect figure into his mind and heart.
"I am ready! We can begin now!" Hei Yinghao took a deep breath and replied with a resolute tone.
Tang Li Xue nodded to Hei Yinghao and told him: "Close your eyes and open your mouth."
All the items from Tang Li Xue''s system were invisible and undetectable to anyone but Tang Li Xue.
She did not want Hei Yinghao to doubt her, and she also did not want to waste any more time to exin everything if she showed the invisible and undetectable [Level Up Pill] to him.
Hei Yinghao held full trust in Tang Li Xue, so he did what she told him to do.
Tang Li Xue took out one [Level Up Pill] from her system inventory and flicked it into Hei Yinghao''s mouth.
Hei Yinghao felt something entered his mouth and immediately swallowed it.
When the [Level Up Pill] entered his body, he felt his strength increased, and his vitality energy got richer.
The invisible chain that shackled him from evolving further was shattered without any resistance.
Hei Yinghao broke from his bottleneck and instantly rushed to the next level. The moment he reached level 41, his evolution requirement has been fulfilled, and his evolution process has finally begun.
The dark cloud started to gather in the sky above Hei Yinghao.
GLUDUG... GLUDUG... GLUDUG...
Hei Yinghao gritted his teeth to withstand the unbelievable pain and itchiness that kept assaulting his body as the ck destructive force covered his entire body from tip to toe and tempering it continuously from inside out.
BBBAAAAAAAAANGGGG~!!!
The ck lightning made from thepression of ck destructive force shed from the ck could and struck Hei Yinghao''s body smashed him to the ground mercilessly.
" Silly Fox!" Tang Li Xue called Hei Yinghao with a tone full of worry. She dashed toward him, ready to block the next ck lightning for him.
"Stop there, Tang Li Xue!" Hei Yinghao shouted with a hoarse voice. Hei Yinghao never called Tang Li Xue by her full name before, he usually called her by her given name to show his endearment to her, but this time he called her so rudely by her full name for the first time.
The fresh blood kept flowing out from his mouth when he shouted at Tang Li Xue. He looked extremely pitiful, but the determination shone from his eyed did not weaken in the slightest.
"Xue... please... do not help me... You already help me to evolve so... how could I face you in the future if I need your help again to pass this little trial?" Hei Yinghao tried to smile at Tang Li Xue to ease her worry, but another fierce ck lightning struck down to him once again!
BAAAAAAAAANNNNGGG~~!!!
The ck lightning was so powerful this time that it left a deep crater on the ground and buried Hei Yinghao deep into it, but he slowly crawled out from the deep crater with his weak body bathed in his own blood.
Tang Li Xue stared at the thick ck cloud, which still got even thicker rather than dispersing, and she decided to approach Hei Yinghao once again.
"STOP! Xue, if I want to be a true man who deserves to be with you... then I must face this alone. Please understand me! If I really want to be stronger, then I must face this alone! Go and help Ice Girl to evolve now! Leave me alone!" Hei Yinghao shouted loudly to Tang Li Xue and scolded her.
Which men would want a girl they like to see them in their most pitiful state like this? That was why he was trying so hard to drive Tang Li Xue away, so she did not see his most pathetic state.
Tang Li Xue bit her pinkish lips in hesitation and mumbled: "But..."
"GO AWAY!" Hei Yinghao yelled out loud as the stronger ck lightning struck him again!
BAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGG~~!!!
Tang Li Xue closed her reddened eyes and turned around. She could not bear to see it any longer.
"Silly Fox, don''t you dare to die! I will never forgive you if you die because I help you to evolve prematurely! Did you hear me?! I... I will... I will not let you rest peacefully if you dare to die! I will beat you up until you wake up from your slumber!" Tang Li Xue shouted at Hei Yinghao as her tears trickled down from her face.
Tang Li Xue ran toward the back courtyard where Bing Yi has been waiting for her without looking back.
Hei Yinghaoughed at Tang Li Xue''s gibberish words, but his heart was filled with warmness and determination.
"Sigh... Xue... Cough... Cough... How could I die before I even confess my feeling to you? I am only willing to die in your embrace, not here." Hei Yinghao smiled gently and murmured while coughed out a few mouthfuls of fresh blood.
Hei Yinghao slowly tried to stand up with his shaky body. It looked as if he could crumble apart anytime, but he still held on with his determination.
GLUDUG... GLUDUG... GLUDUG...
The ck cloud became thicker and thicker as time passed as if it grew more and more powerful instead of weakened.
"Come! We will see who willst till the end! You or me!" Hei Yinghao smiled full of confidence and challenged the thick ck cloud in the sky above him.
Chapter 214 - 214: Tang Li Xues Secret Preparation!
Chapter 214 - 214: Tang Li Xue''s Secret Preparation!
Tang Li Xue wiped her tears from her mask with her sleeve, and slowly approached the back courtyard while kept thinking deeply.
''Both Silly Fox and Bingbing are really good foxes, but they are also too stubborn. They will not let me help them when they undergo their evolution process. I should make some preparations to help Bing Yi secretly first before I make Bing Yi evolve this time!'' Tang Li Xue put her slender finger on her chin and thought for a while.
When Tang Li Xue arrived at the back courtyard, Bing Yi already waited for her and asked her with an anxious tone: "Little Xue, will Silly Fox be okay? Those thunder sounds are so loud, and those ck lightning are so scarily powerful!"
Bing Yi did not see Hei Yinghao''s evolution process, but she could still see that ck cloud and ck lightning from the back courtyard.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and replied with a firm tone: "Do not worry, he will be okay... No, he will surely be okay! Now, it''s your turn. Bingbing, you are different from Silly Fox. I need to strengthen your body first before you can evolve. Now, close your eyes and open your mouth!"
Bing Yi''s expression turned solemn as she nodded to Tang Li Xue and followed what Tang Li Xue told her to do.
Tang Li Xue took out two [Power Up Pills] at once from her system inventory and flicked it all into Bing Yi''s mouth.
Two [Power Up Pills] flew into Bing Yi''s mouth, and she swallowed it all at once.
The moment when two [Power Up Pills] entered her stomach and dissolved in her body, Bing Yi immediately felt her strength increasing more and more at an incredible pace!
Her body got a lot more powerful. Even her vitality energy became far more plentiful and thicker than before.
BANG~!!!
Bing Yi''s level breakthrough the bottleneck and increased from 38 to 39 without facing any resistance!
But it did not just stop there, Bing Yi could felt that the pill''s effect on her body was still plentiful and kept increasing her strength more and more.
Bing Yi involuntarily m.o.a.ned loudly in pleasure while she was savoring the incredible effect of Tang Li Xue''s [Level Up Pill] spreading on every inch of her body.
BANG~!!!
Bing Yi''s level breakthrough again from 39 to 40 in only a few seconds!
The effect of [Level Up Pill] finally subsided after Bing Yi reached level 40.
Bing Yi slowly opened her eyes and breathed out the cold vapor from her mouth.
She smiled happily while grasped her fist and felt a great increase in her strength.
"Little Xue, I... I feel a lot stronger than before now! Thank you very much!" Bing Yi giggled and thanked Tang Li Xue with a tone full of gratefulness.
She happily ran to Tang Li Xue and hugged her while humming in glee, then spun together like a pair of love birds.
"Okay, that''s enough. I will feel dizzy if you kept doing this. You must get used to your new strength first for a few hours before we can begin your evolution process." Tang Li Xueughed and bowed her body before took several steps backward to get away from Bing Yi.
Bing Yi pouted in disappointment when Tang Li Xue escaped from her hug, but she still followed Tang Li Xue''s instruction and practicing in the back courtyard to get used to her current new strength.
Tang Li Xue entered Hei Yinghao''s house through the door from the back courtyard and sat in the living room.
''Thankfully, Bingbing did not feel suspicious at all. Now, I must use these several hours to create some talismans to help her pass her evolution process safely!'' Tang Li Xue thought while sighed in relief.
She took out her golden [Inscription Pen] from her system inventory. She also took out a bottle filled with the [Rare] grade beast blood and several stacks of nk talismans from her space pouch.
''Let''s begin!'' Tang Li Xue took a deep breath, and her expression turned solemn when she held the golden [Inscription Pen] tightly in her grasp and focused all of her minds onto the nk talisman in front of her.
She dipped the tip of the golden [Inscription Pen] into the bottle filled with the [Rare] grade beast blood and began to inscribe a rune onto the nk talisman.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Numbness +2]
[ Effect: Numbing the sense of pain, -50% agility, -50% perception for 10 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Reduced the negative buff effect by 30%. Duration +5 minutes.]
[+2 Effect: Reduced the negative buff effect by 50%. Duration +10 minutes.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Iron Skin +2]
[[ Effect: Toughness stats +20%, Damage Reduction +15% for 10 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Toughness stats +10%. Damage Reduction +5%. Duration +5 minutes.]
[+2 Effect: Toughness stats +20%. Damage Reduction +10%. Duration +10 minutes.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Regeneration +2]
[Effect: Activated Regeneration skill. (Heal 1% of maximum HP every 5 seconds for 180 seconds.)]
[+1 Effect: Heal +0.5% of maximum HP every 5 seconds. Duration +60 seconds.]
[+2 Effect: Heal +1% of maximum HP every 5 seconds. Duration +120 seconds.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
It seemed Tang Li Xue''s sess rate was on fire today since the life of her best friend might be depending on these talismanster, so she sessfully made each one of [Talisman of Numbness +2], [Talisman of Iron Skin +2], and [Talisman of Regeneration +2] in only ten tries.
Moreover, all of them have +2 effects!
''These three talismans should be enough. There is no need for more strength or speed to sessfully undergo the evolution process, so I think I do not need to make [Talisman of Giant Strength] and [Talisman of Lightning Speed].'' Tang Li Xue thought for a while, but she immediately frowned when she remembered the horrible ck lightning that kept striking Hei Yinghao until now.
''Bingbing has ice elemental type power. It seems I need to make a strong talisman to increase her resistance to cold or frost!'' Tang Li Xue concluded before taking her golden [Inscription Pen] again into her grasp and searching for the suitable rune in the list of Inscription rune in her mind.
''Water resistance rune... is not quite right.''
''Ice resistance... is too weak.''
''Sigh... why aren''t there any stronger effect rune among these basic runes?''
''Wait... what if Ibine the effects of these two runes into one?''
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter, and she began to inscribe both of the runes onto the nk talisman.
BOFF... BOFF... BOFF... BOFF... BOFF... BOFF...
Tang Li Xue failed many times, but she neither gave up nor anxious. On contrary, she became even more determined and focused.
When she failed, she immediately knew her mistake and fix it then repeated it again and again before she finally seeded in her thirty-fifth tries!
Ding!
[Host sessfully inscribed the Talisman of Water and Frost Resistance +3!]
[Inscriptionist''s proficiency has increased!]
[Congrattion! Inscriptionist grade has been upgraded to level 1 (Apprentice)!]
Tang Li Xue stunned silly by the system notification.
There was a lot of new knowledge about inscription and runes injected into Tang Li Xue''s mind, but she did not feel dizzy or headache at all like before because her Spirit stats already far higher than before.
She impatiently identified the talisman''s effect with her Basic [All Knowing Eyes].
-----------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Water and Frost Resistance +3]
[Effect: Water and Frost Resistance +30%, Reduced the damage received from Water and Frost Elemental by 15% for 15 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Water and Frost Resistance +15%, Reduced the damage received from Water and Frost Elemental by 10% for 5 minutes.]
[+2 Effect: Water and Frost Resistance +30%, Reduced the damage received from Water and Frost Elemental by 15% for 10 minutes.]
[+3 Effect: Water and Frost Resistance +45%, Reduced the damage received from Water and Frost Elemental by 20% for 15 minutes.]
-----------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue jumped in surprise while held the [Talisman of Water and Frost Resistance +3] tightly in her grasp.
''[Talisman of Water and Frost Resistance +3]?! It has a +3 effect?! Uwehehehe... Finally, this is my second +3 talisman I managed to make!'' Tang Li Xueughed in pride.
"So this talisman can increase the Water and Frost Resistance by 120% and reduced the damage received from Water and Frost Elemental by 60% for 45 minutes! Oh My God, with this OP talisman, I am 100% sure Bingbing would pass her evolution safely!" Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips and skipping back to the back courtyard happily.
But her mood instantly plunged down to the bottom when she saw that the fierce ck lightning still kept striking down mercilessly until now.
''At least it means that Silly Fox still alive until now... Come on, Silly Fox! You can do it!'' Tang Li Xue mumbled and pointed her fist to the ck cloud above Hei Yinghao to silently encourage him.
Tang Li Xue approached Bing Yi and asked her with a solemn tone: "How about it, Bingbing? Are you ready now?"
Bing Yi took a deep breath and nodded to Tang Li Xue with eyes full of determination.
"Close your eyes and open your mouth." Tang Li Xue told Bing Yi what to do like before, and Bing Yi followed it without any doubt.
Tang Li Xue threw four talismans onto Bing Yi at once!
The four talismans instantly entered Bing Yi''s body and gave Bing Yi four different types of buffs!
Then Tang Li Xue took out one [Level Up Pill] from her system inventory and flicked it into Bing Yi''s mouth.
When Bing Yi swallowed down the [Level Up Pill], she immediately felt her strength increasing again like before.
BANG~!!!
After the [Level Up Pill] increased Bing Yi''s overall strength, Bing Yi''s level broke from 40 to 41 in an instant.
Bing Yi thought the effect of [Level Up Pill] was over like previously, but she promptly realized that something was different.
The requirement for Bing Yi''s evolution has been fulfilled, and the evolution process has triggered it!
Her evolution process has finally begun!
"Hopefully, everything will go smoothly this time." Tang Li Xue mumbled and prayed as she kept observing Bing Yi''s evolution process nervously.
The temperature in the entire area kept dropping rapidly in an instant.
WENG... WENG... WENG...
The cloud above the area also became thicker and thicker.
"Don''t tell me there will be lightning again this time?!" Tang Li Xue murmured while frowned deeper.
On contrary to Tang Li Xue''s guess, there was no lightning or rain this time, but there was cold substance began to pour down from the sky.
''Is it snowing?'' Tang Li Xue caught it with her hand and inspected it more closely.
''No, this is... ice?'' Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise.
At first, the ice was only at the size of a fingernail andpletely harmless, but the ice became bigger and sharper as time goes by!
Even the cold frosty wind was also blowing stronger and stronger!
"What the hell! This is a fierce blizzard!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she immediately ran into the house.
Tang Li Xue looked at Bing Yi and found out that Bing Yi was already encased by thick ice like a cocoon.
Chapter 215 - 215: Wits End!
Chapter 215 - 215: Wit''s End!
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips twitched slightly as she murmured in a worried tone: "Even this house will notst for long and will definitely crumble sooner orter if the ice blizzard kept getting heavier and heavier like this..."
Tang Li Xue decided to use her [Energy Maniption] to reinforce the house from inside so it will not crumble down so easily under the ice blizzard continuous pounding from outside.
''Silly Fox... Bingbing... I already do what I can to help you evolve, so now I can only pray for your safety and sess...'' Tang Li Xue thought while grasped her fist tighter.
"By the way, how can I get out of this Silly Fox''s ce and go back to my own room now? Will it affect those two if I pull Silly Fox''s bronze card from that ck tiny box behind the door? Sigh... Forget it... I will just wait for them to finish their evolution process patiently here." Tang Li Xueined a bit before sighed and sat on the sofa in the living room.
She sat in the lotus position and took out a low-tier spirit stone from her space pouch, then started to continue her cultivation.
Her twopanions were currently evolving into the [Rare] Grade beast, so how could she wasted her time to dilly dally around without doing anything.
''Soon, I will catch up to them and be the [Rare] Grade beast too!'' Tang Li Xue thought full of determination.
.....
...
.
Unknowingly, 42 hours has already passed...
Hei Yinghao felt his energy was getting more and more depleted as he assaulted nonstop by the ck lightning one after another.
He understood that he was currently facing the most dangerous trial where he will need to receive the ck lightning continuous tempering.
This was the do-or-die challenge where Hei Yinghao would need to finish the tempering and make his body immune to the ck lightning first or die before he could finish on doing it!
Hei Yinghao already canceled his iplete [Transfiguration: Human Form] and revert back to his fox form, so he could use all of his true strength to resist the ck lightning, but who knew that the power of the ck lightning also became a lot more powerful than before!
In fact, Hei Yinghao was already at his wit''s end.
He already wanted to give up so many times, but every time he remembered Tang Li Xue''s tears and her encouragement shout, he gritted his teeth then somehow managed to withstand the ck lightning''s assault.
"Just a bit more... I will only need to hold a bit more... to meet with Xue... and see her smile once more..." Hei Yinghao whispered to himself as all of the ck furs on his body charred to ashes.
BOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOMMM~!!!
Several bolts of ck lightning struck some of his limbs and made it exploded into blood mist.
The pain was too unbearable. Hei Yinghao felt like he already wanted to give up and die, but he still gritted his teeth and murmured to himself: "Come on, Hei Yinghao! It is alright if you die... but if you die now, you will make Xue very sad. You will make her cry and me herself for helping you evolve! Therefore you cannot die! At least, not now!"
BOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOMMM~!!!
This time the several more powerful bolts of ck lightning smashed his shoulder into a bloody mess. A bolt of ck lightning even struck his back and prated through his stomach.
Hei Yinghao puked out several mouthfuls of blood. He felt his consciousness was starting to fade more and more.
But when Tang Li Xue''s slender figure appeared in his mind, he gritted his teeth again and bit his tongue to regain a bit of his consciousness.
"I must not give up now... I already go this far... a bit more... only a bit more... and I can proudly meet with Xue again... with my new strength... I am sure that I can help her... to protect her... and to defeat her enemies..." Hei Yinghao roared to himself.
BOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOMMM~!!!
The ck lightning got more and more powerful! It could prate through Hei Yinghao''s body now, filled his body with several fist-sized holes!
Hei Yinghao could no longer talk or move any of his limbs, but he still proudly raised his head and howled loudly to the sky.
HHHOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWLLLLLL~~~!!!
''I cannot die now! Not right now! I will never make Xue cry! I will be the man who will make Xue happy!'' Hei Yinghao shouted in his mind.
BBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The giant ck lightning sted from the sky and shot toward Hei Yinghao''s spine!
BBBAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
It easily prated Hei Yinghao''s spine and shattered his beast core to dust!
Different from the fragile human who was filled with weakness everywhere, the Beast ns have very strong vitality thanks to their beast core. They could recover from any kind of wounds, no matter how bad it was.
The Beast ns only have two weaknesses: the brain, and the beast core.
Now, the giant ck lightning already shattered one of Hei Yinghao''s weaknesses. The source of his vitality energy, which could recover any kind of wounds, the beast core.
Without his beast core, the current Hei Yinghao was no different from the crippled humans without their cultivation and Dantian.
Any beast would certainly fall into the ultimate despair if this happened to them. They would rather choose to die than live as a useless crippled beast.
But Hei Yinghao did not have any time to feel despair even after he was losing his beast core!
What he terrified the most right now was to make Tang Li Xue cried and me herself for the rest of her life because of his death!
"UOOOOOOOAAAAAHHHH~!!!" Hei Yinghao used all of hisst strength to shout loudly and ignited the strongest passion in his heart!
At that instant, Hei Yinghao''s spirit exploded out!
If Tang Li Xue could peek at Hei Yinghao''s stats right now, she would certainly drop her jaw to the ground in surprise. She increased her spirit stats bit by bit every day while withstood unbearable headache, but currently, Hei Yinghao''s spirit stats improved so rapidly nonstop!
50...
100...
300...
500...
800...
1000!!!
And it still kept increasing without any sign of stopping at all!
Hei Yinghao''s pair of obsidian ck eyes shone with mysterious dark grey light!
His shattered beast core was actually slowly condensed once more under the control of his spirit power!
Hei Yinghao used his incredible high spirit stat to forcefully condense his shattered beast core!
BBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
As if the heaven itself was angry that Hei Yinghao was still alive, the giant ck lightning struck down once more!
This time it aimed at Hei Yinghao''s head!
The giant ck lightning threatened to crush Hei Yinghao''s brain!
Hei Yinghao slowly raised his head, and the mysterious dark grey light in his eyes shone brighter!
BAAAAAAAAANGGGG~!!!
The giant ck lightning hit an invisible barrier and shattered into countless tiny sparks.
Hei Yinghao even redirected the countless tiny sparks of the giant ck lightning with the strength of his spirit and used it to help him form his beast core!
The giant ck lightning shed many times toward Hei Yinghao, but it still failed to strike him.
It even helped Hei Yinghao to condense his beast core more and more.
After the beast core has been formed, Hei Yinghao''s body was once again filled with vitality energy. All of the wounds on his body were starting to regenerate.
BOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOMMM~!!!
As if the sky got angrier by what Hei Yinghao has done, the ck lightning shed more frequently, and its strength also tripled than before.
"Sigh... It''s futile. You can''t hurt me anymore." Hei Yinghao sighed in relief, but his eyes got brightened when an extremely bold idea shed in his mind.
Since there were more ck lightning attacking him right now, why not just use it to condense one more beast core?
BOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOMMM~!!!
Hei Yinghao used the strength of his spirit to absorb all the fierce ck lightning aimed at him and kneaded it into another beast core!
Hei Yinghao was probably the first and only beast in the entire Immortal World who has two beast cores in his body!
His current vitality energy was twice more abundant and denser than before! Even his regeneration improved by more than three times!
It only took him half an hour or so topletely recover from all of his lethal wounds.
Since the ck lightning still did not stop, Hei Yinghao nned to use it to temper his body.
Hei Yinghao lifted his spirit barrier and let the powerful ck lightning struck on his body again and again!
The powerful ck lightning could no longer threaten him. On the contrary, it only helped him tempering his body as if the powerful cksmith tempering the steel into the condensed steel!
Hei Yinghao''s body was glistening coldly under the continuous tempering. His ck furs became smoother and shinier, while his body became more polished and far stronger than before as if it was the treasure made from the precious unbreakable ck jade.
The ck cloud got thinner and thinner before finally dispersedpletely when all the ck lightning waspletely exhausted.
Hei Yinghao slowly opened his eyes, and the mysterious dark grey light in his eyes slowly faded away.
Hei Yinghao stood up and slowly examined his new body.
He was already as tall as a warhorse right now, and three robust cktails were swaying behind him.
His body looked more majestic and more refined, but more slender than before. He felt his entire body was brimming with unimaginable strength.
There were also several sharp ck crystals grown out from his limbs and body as if he wore ck crystal armor.
His enemies would be shredded into pieces if he crashed onto them with this sharp ck crystal armor.
Hei Yinghao''s spirit sense could even cover the entire front courtyard, house, and back courtyard. He could sense everything so crystal clear right now.
Thanks to his unbelievable high spirit stat, his current [Spirit Perception] was far sharper and covering a far wider range than Tang Li Xue!
Hei Yinghao also received some information about his new divine ability in his mind.
Just like before, he also got two new divine abilities after he evolved into [Rare] grade beast!
Chapter 216 - 216: The Shattered Dream!
Chapter 216 - 216: The Shattered Dream!
No one knows, but Hei Yinghao was actually a crossbreeding descendant from two different Beast Races.
His father was from [Cat Sith] species. The [Cat Sith] was also known as the royal bloodline species amongst the Cats, all the Kings of Cats were from the [Cat Sith] species.
But his father abandoned his royal title when he fell madly in love with the female from the fox race, and in the end, gave birth to him.
Hei Yinghao always mocked and bullied by any cat race he met, because of it.
He ran away from home because he hated his father''s choice of abandoning his royal title for a woman, but now after he fell madly in love with Tang Li Xue, he finally understood his father''s feelings at that time.
How could one Beast Race give birth to crossbreed descendants after mating with the other Beast Race?
The answer was simple. Any beast after they reached Spirit Beast rank, they could conceive after mating with the other Race, even with Human Race.
Unfortunately, the price for that was too steep. Those beasts who dare to marry with the other Beast Race will get exiled from both of their races or ns.
Just like Hei Yinghao''s father and mother, both of them got exiled out from both of their ns because of that.
(If the consequence of marriage between two different Beast Races was already this terrible, we could easily imagine the consequence of marriage between Human and Beast! Now we also knew the reason why the Fake Dragon decided to secretly seal Tang Li Xue''s memory about Xiao Hei before!)
But at least, their descendants could still be epted by both ns since the Beast Races'' policy stated that the crossbreed between two races was strictly forbidden, but it was the parents who vited it, not their children. Their children were innocent.
This was the reason why Hei Yinghao could easily enter the Myriad Foxes Academy without anyone objected it.
Of course, the main reason was that the poption of female foxespletely outnumbered the poption of male foxes by several times so, amongst all the beast races, the fox race was actually the race who did the most crossbreed mating.
The fox race also has a reallyx policy about crossbreed mating between two different Beast Races.
This was also the reason why Hei Yinghao chose to enter Fox Home rather than Cat n.
There were several very good reasons why all the Beast Races heavily forbid the crossbreed between two different races.
However, the most important reason was 95% of all the crossbreed descendants between two different races will only resulting in trashy beasts without any divine ability because their two bloodlines from two different races will be rejecting and suppressing each other just like fire and water.
Fortunately, Hei Yinghao belongs to the rest of 5% where the two bloodlines from two different races blended perfectly just like fire and oil. He even got 2 different sets of divine abilities from 2 different races each time he evolved!
Hei Yinghao already has [Blood Burst] and [Destruction Force] when he was in [Umon] grade.
But now, he got 2 new divine abilities from those 2 different sets: [Blood Ignition] and [Lightning of Destruction].
[Blood Ignition] would burn the blood in his body and his vitality energy to massively increase his overall stats for a certain period of time. He could even use it with [Blood Burst] and increasing his overall stats even further!
[Lightning of Destruction] was almost the upgraded version of [Destruction Force].
[Destruction Force] was slow because he needed to charge the destructive energy before shooting it to his enemy, but [Lightning of Destruction] was different, he could shot it at any time he wants.
He could even set the trajectory before shooting it out and make the trajectory course curved, dived, or straight made it became far more unpredictable.
Hei Yinghao could even use this [Lightning of Destruction] along with [Destruction Force]. When he used both of them at once, he will charge the destructive energy for a while before shooting out several times more powerful [Lightning of Destruction] toward his enemy!
The pros were both of these divine abilities were very powerful, the cons were both of these divine abilities will consume much vitality energy.
Thankfully, Hei Yinghao has 2 beast cores in his body now!
So he has twice more vitality energy reserve than the other beasts, and his vitality energy could recovering twice faster than the other beasts too.
Hei Yinghao activated his iplete [Transfiguration: Human Form] and changed back to his human form.
He realized that he became more muscr and manly than before. He also became a lot more handsome.
Hei Yinghao chuckled happily and ran into his house impatiently to show his new handsome self to Tang Li Xue.
But he forgot that his bronze badge was in Tang Li Xue''s hand, so the automatic clothes did not cover his n.a.k.e.d body like usual this time.
In short, he was still in his birthday suit right now.
.....
...
.
Bing Yi fell into a deep sleep inside the cocoon of ice.
She dreamed about her gentle father... her naggy mother... her cool and strong big sister... and her cute little sister...
They were all living in seclusion at the deep mountain, but they live their life happily every day there.
Until one day when the heavy blizzard struck their mountain...
Bing Yi''s parents always told all of their children to hunt for their own food, and Bing Yi was currently hunting her prey in the middle of the mountain like usual when the heavy blizzard suddenly assaulted out of nowhere.
As [White cial Fox], Bing Yi did not affect by cold weather at all, and she still could move easily in the middle of thick snow.
But she became so irritated. All of her prey would definitely hideaway in their nest because of this heavy blizzard.
"Sigh... it seems I am fated to starving for a few days because of this blizzard." Bing Yi grumbled and sighed in frustration.
She could tunnel into the snow to create shelter from this heavy blizzard, but somehow her heart got so restless today, so she decided to go straight home.
Bing Yi''s family home was a deep cave in the middle of the mountain.
Usually, Bing Yi could already hear the sound of her little sister, naggy mother, and gentle father from outside.
Strangely, she could not hear anything from outside today!
Bing Yi felt even more anxious as she moved her limbs faster and faster.
Bing Yi dashed hastily and entered the cave, but her sharp nose could already smell the pungent stench of blood from the entrance!
Bing Yi''s mind went nk when she saw her little sister, father, and mother were lying down lifelessly in the puddle of blood!
She still could not ept the reality in front of her eyes.
She felt as if she was still in a nightmare.
Bing Yi bit her tongue, trying to wake up from this terrible nightmare, but the paining from her tongue confirmed that everything was not a dream.
At the center of the cave, her cold big sister was still undergoing her evolution process to be a Beast Lord.
The blizzard outside was actually the phenomenon created by her big sister''s evolution!
Bing Yi even saw her cold big sister consuming a beast core to assist her evolution process and make it faster.
Somehow Bing Yi knew that the aura of the beast core which her big sister already consumed was actually from her mother!
GRRRRRRAAAAAAWWWWWWWRRRRRRRR~~!!!
Her sadness waspletely reced by fury and hatred as she pounced toward her elder sister!
Unfortunately, Bing Yi was not a match for her elder sister after the evolution process almost finished.
Her elder sister pped Bing Yi to the ground. Her elder sister''s leisure attack made many of Bing Yi''s bones shattered, and almost all of her internal organs were fatally injured.
Bing Yi coughed out several mouthfuls of blood, but she still kept staring at her elder sister full of deep anger and hatred.
Her elder sister grasped Bing Yi''s fragile neck with her ws. She could easily cut Bing Yi''s head now, but she did not do it. She pulled Bing Yi closer to her instead.
"How weak! My little sister, you are so weak and useless. I will only stain my w if I kill the unworthy you now!" Bing Yi''s elder sister said with a tone full of mocking and disgust.
Her elder sister threw her away to the side of the cave as if she was throwing away trash.
"I will go to the Foxes Home now. If you want your revenge, then you can follow me there. Remember to be stronger, and be someone I deserve to kill before challenging me!" Bing Yi''s elder sister said herst words before leaving Bing Yi alone in that cave.
Bing Yi''s consciousness had faded as she passed out from the fatal wounds she sustained...
When Bing Yi opened her eyes back, she was already in the Foxes Home.
It was actually a simple vige where many foxes live side by side in harmony.
Bing Yi even met with the little white fox, which resembled her little sister here, but her mind was fully upied by her revenge, so shepletely ignored the little white fox.
Bing Yi''s personalitypletely changed because of her family''s death, she became cold, introverted, and unsociable, so no one wanted to get close to her. They avoided her like a gue.
Only the little white fox dared to get close to her. Over a long period of time, the little white fox finally managed to melt Bing Yi''s frozen heart and became her only close friend.
However, her elder sister once again appeared in front of her and in the little white fox in front of her eyes!
Bing Yi''s eyes turned crimson red as her fury and hatred became even deeper and deeper!
"BIIIIIIINNNNNNGGGG SSHHUUUIIIIIII~~!!! I WILL KILL YOU!" Bing Yi shouted out as loud as she could as the dream and illusion in front of her eyes broke to pieces!
Even the thick ice cocoon which encased her inside it started to crack.
The cracks spread wider and wider before finally...
PPRRRRAAAAAAANNNNGGG~!!!
It shattered into countless crystal ice dust!
Chapter 217 - 217: Evolved Bing Yi Versus Evolved Hei Yinghao!
Chapter 217 - 217: Evolved Bing Yi Versus Evolved Hei Yinghao!
When Bing Yi emerged out from the shattered ice cocoon, she was already in her new fox form.
Three white-colored tails with the dagger-like tip were fluttering behind her, and her white sturdy body has already grown to be almost twice bigger than Tibetan Mastiff.
The surrounding frigid blizzard started to swirl around Bing Yi and got absorbed into her back.
In a few minutes, the blizzard haspletely died down, but on Bing Yi''s back, there was a pair of ice wings condensed from the frosty blizzard wind.
Each of her white furs kept emitting the chilling icy aura.
Bing Yi slowly opened her white eyes. The deep hatred and fury slowly faded away as she recalled that she was still in Hei Yinghao''s backyard undergoing her evolution process under Tang Li Xue''s help.
Bing Yi took a deep breath to calm her raging mood, and she stared at one of her own furry paws while muttered and gritted her teeth impatiently: "Bing Shui, I have already evolved into Beast Lord too now! I already catch up to you! Soon... Soon, I will definitely kill you with my own hands!"
After Bing Yi calmed down a lot, she entered Hei Yinghao''s house to meet with Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao.
.....
...
.
When Bing Yi walked into the living room, Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes immediately brightened as she slowly admired Bing Yi''s new fox form.
Tang Li Xue raised her thumb and praised Bing Yi with a tone full of admiration: "Bingbing, you look so cool and awesome! I am sure the two of us can win tomorrow match easily!"
Bing Yi blushed slightly when Tang Li Xue gently stroked her cold furs.
Tang Li Xue gave Bing Yi''s bronze badge back to her, so she did not bepletely n.a.k.e.d after she turned back into her human form.
When Bing Yi transformed back into her human form, she realized that Hei Yinghao sat at the corner of the living room while kept staring at Tang Li Xue with a wronged expression.
There were deep red palm marks on both Hei Yinghao''s right and left cheeks.
Tang Li Xue waspletely dumbfounded when Hei Yinghao entered the living room before, and he even dared to show off his fully n.a.k.e.d body so proudly to Tang Li Xue.
Of course, Hei Yinghao was awarded two ps to both of his cheeks by Tang Li Xue after that.
Although, Tang Li Xue was dly admired Hei Yinghao''s manly muscr body inside her heart, but she still needs to punish Hei Yinghao for that, or she would not know what to do if Hei Yinghao started to show off his n.a.k.e.d body every day to her.
"Just ignore that pervert exhibitionism. Bingbing, please tell me what your new divine ability is!" Tang Li Xue asked Bing Yi in a tone brimming with excitement and curiosity.
''What? Pervert exhib... what is that?'' Bing Yi thought with a dumbfounded expression.
But Bing Yi quickly threw it to the back of her mind and exined her new divine ability to Tang Li Xue.
Bing Yi did not get 2 divine abilities like Hei Yinghao. She only got one new divine ability, but it was extremely powerful and lethal!
Her new divine ability was an ice elemental type divine ability called [Corrosive Frost].
Bing Yi''s first divine ability was [Freezing Field], it made her capable of freezing anything and controlling all the ice within some range.
Her freezing ability could only stop her enemies from moving for a few moments or slowing them down.
But when she was using her [Freezing Field] along with this [Corrosive Frost], the freezing effect will be so harmful, and everything she froze will be invaded and corroded by the icy power before theypletely transformed into ice statues!
''What a vicious divine ability?! So isn''t that mean all creatures will die if they turned into ice statues?'' Tang Li Xue eximed in shock and horror.
Frozen into an ice statue and transformed into an ice statue were two different things. The former means the target was only trapped inside the ice, while thetter means the target was already turned into the ice itself.
Hei Yinghao puffed his cheek and felt even more wronged and jealous when he saw Tang Li Xue was smiling gently and kept staring at Bing Yi with eyes full of amazement.
Hei Yinghao stood up and said to Bing Yi with a hint of hostility and provocation: "Humph! You only get one divine ability and already so proud of it! Just so you know, it is only mediocre at best! I got two new divine abilities!"
"Oh? You get two new divine abilities at once?! What kind of divine abilities you get?" Bing Yi asked curiously.
Tang Li Xue was also staring at Hei Yinghao with eyes brimming with curiosity.
Hei Yinghao raised his chin and put his smug face. He coughed up a few times to clear his throat and ready to exin the power of his new divine abilities, but he immediately changed his mind.
"Want to know the power of my new divine abilities? Dream on! Ice Girl, if you want to know, let''s have a sparring match in the front courtyard, and I will show it to you! Do you dare to ept it?" Hei Yinghao challenged Bing Yi tantly.
If Tang Li Xue who asked him, he would dly exin every detail of his two new divine abilities to her!
But since the one who asked him was this Ice Girl, Hei Yinghao used this chance to challenge this Ice Girl and show Tang Li Xue, who was more awesome and cooler between them!
Bing Yi chuckled and proudly replied: "All right! Let''s go to the front courtyard now and see whose new divine ability is more powerful!"
Bing Yi perfectly understood Hei Yinghao''s intention, but she will never back down in front of Tang Li Xue, so she boldly epted Hei Yinghao''s challenge.
Besides, both of them were so eager to try their new divine abilities and strength inbat, so this sparring match was perfect for them to familiarize all of it in realbat!
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and thought: ''These two already wanted to fight after finished their evolution? Hei... Hei... Hei... At least let me go back to my room first! I want to sleep so badly right now!''
But she still had no other choice other than following them to the front courtyard and watch the sparring battle between Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
After all of them arrived at the front courtyard, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao pointed Tang Li Xue as the judge for their match before they stood facing each other.
"Ready!" Tang Li Xue shouted with her sweet melodious voice.
"BEGIN!"
As usual Bing Yi immediately activated her [Freezing Field].
Different from before she was in her [Umon] grade, her [Freezing Field]''s coverage was so wide right now and could cover the entire front courtyard, house, and even the back courtyard!
Her [Freezing Field] effect was alsopletely different from before! The moment Bing Yi activated it, the entire area was struck by the heavy blizzard just like in her evolution process before!
Bing Yi also tried to control her [Freezing Field] to make sure she will not hurt Tang Li Xue before activating her [Corrosive Frost] too simultaneously!
Under her [Corrosive Frost] effect, everything she froze transformed into ice even Hei Yinghao!
"Err... Bingbing, aren''t you too mean with him? What if he identally died here?" Tang Li Xue stared at the frozen Hei Yinghao with eyes full of worry and pity.
Bing Yi frowned deeper. She thought Hei Yinghao would be super strong after he evolved into Beast Lord, that was the reason why she went all out from the very beginning.
"Should I cancel my divine abilities now?" Bing Yi murmured doubtfully.
But before Bing Yi could cancel her divine abilities, the familiar mocking voice resounded from inside the ice statue in front of her.
"Is this it? So your new strength is only at this level?"
Bzzzt... Bzzzt... BBBAAAAAANGGG~!!!
The ice statue was shattered into dust, and Hei Yinghao stepped out uninjured.
The ck lightning was emitting out from Hei Yinghao''s body as if he was wearing the armor of ck lightning.
"All right, I already saw your new divine ability. So now, it''s my turn!" Hei Yinghao talked with a tone full of arrogance while smiling smugly as if he wanted to show his cool side to Tang Li Xue so badly.
Hei Yinghao''s eyes turned red when he activated his [Blood Burst].
"Hmm... For the warming up, let''s try double amplification first." Hei Yinghao mumbled and chuckled while activating his [Blood Ignition].
[Blood Ignition] - Double Amplification!
The aura and pressure from Hei Yinghao instantly doubled as he warned Bing Yi: "I will attack you now so... be careful!"
Without Hei Yinghao''s warning, Bing Yi already put her guard to maximum, but she still could not see Hei Yinghao''s movement at all!
It was as if Hei Yinghao teleported in front of her eyes in an instant!
BBBBAAAAAAAAANGG~!!!
Bing Yi crossed her hands to defend against Hei Yinghao''s punch, but she still threw off tens of meters behind, and one of her arms was fractured.
Bing Yi did not dare to look down on Hei Yinghao, so she immediately used her strength to instantly build the thick ice wall in front of her!
"[Blood Ignition]... Quadruple Amplification!" Hei Yinghao shouted as the aura and pressure emitting out from his body doubled once more!
Chapter 218 - 218: Two Options!
Chapter 218 - 218: Two Options!
Hei Yinghao''s figure disappeared in an instant from the ce where he stood before.
BBBOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
Bing Yi''s thick wall of ice shattered into tiny pieces like ss, and Hei Yinghao once again appeared in front of her eyes like before.
Bing Yi wanted to block Hei Yinghao''s attack, but it was toote because Hei Yinghao''s fist already arrived in front of her eyes.
BAAAAANG~~!!!
Bing Yi gritted her teeth and prepared to receive Hei Yinghao''s punch, but who knows that Hei Yinghao''s fist stopped right in front of her face.
Tang Li Xue was already stood between Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao. She grabbed Hei Yinghao''s wrist to stop his punch.
"That is enough, you two! Do not forget that we still have our decisive match against Mogui tomorrow!" Tang Li Xue warned Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao with a stern tone.
However, Tang Li Xue was secretly very pleased with Hei Yinghao''s [Blood Ignition] in her heart.
Tang Li Xue tried to copy Hei Yinghao''s [Blood Ignition] after she saw its amazing effect when he used his [Blood Ignition] ¨C Double Amplification.
She also activated [Blood Ignition] ¨C Quadruple Amplification the moment Hei Yinghao''s used it and even managed to catch Hei Yinghao''s wrist to stop his punch before hitting Bing Yi''s face.
"Oh¡ okay¡" Hei Yinghaoughed apologetically to Tang Li Xue and turned off his [Blood Burst] and [Blood Ignition].
"Xue, as you already see! I am stronger, cooler, and more awesome than Ice Girl!" Hei Yinghao''s eyes were sparkling brightly. His excited expression showed as if he wanted to say: ''please, praise me and like me more than that Ice Girl!''
Tang Li Xue only rolled her eyes and said with a disdainful tone: "How could you feel so proud and happy after beating a pitiful girl like Bingbing?!"
Tang Li Xue ignored the dumbfounded Hei Yinghao and checked for Bing Yi''s wound.
Her wound was not severe at all. With [Rare] grade demonic beast''s high recovery ability, she could restore back to her best condition in only a few hours.
But Tang Li Xue still decided to use one of her [Talisman of Regeneration +2] to help Bing Ti recover faster.
Both Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi ignored Hei Yinghao, who already went into his sulking mode and put his wronged expression while kept staring at Tang Li Xue like before.
They discussed the reason why Bing Yi''s divine ability seemed a lot weaker than Hei Yinghao and how to make it a lot more powerful.
In the end, both Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi reached the same conclusion.
"Elemental Compression¡" Tang Li Xue murmured in a daze while kept thinking deeply.
Bing Yi nodded to Tang Li Xue and exined clearer: "I think if I can use ''Elemental Compression'' topress my [Freezing Field] and make its area of coverage smaller but stronger then it will definitely improve the effectiveness of my [Corrosive Frost] and make it much more lethal than before."
After many trials and errors with the help of Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao, Bing Yi finally managed to improve the control of her divine abilities by a lot and improved her [Corrosive Frost] to be more lethal.
Unknowingly, the sun has already risen, and the day they had to face the Mogui''s team had finally arrived.
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi went back to their respective room first to take a bath.
When Tang Li Xue entered back into her room, she immediately summoned out Yaya from her system storage.
"Yayaya~~" Yaya jumped to Tang Li Xue and hugged her neck.
Yaya even kept raining Tang Li Xue with many kisses onto her cheeks.
Yaya told Tang Li Xue about how she kept missing Tang Li Xue in these three days even when she was unconscious and suffered from the bacsh of [War Goddess Mode].
Tang Li Xue held Yaya and kissed both of her cheeks whileforted Yaya: "All right, I know Yaya miss me. I always miss Yaya too in these three days! These three days feel so long and lonely without Yaya apany me."
Yaya sniffled and hugged Tang Li Xue''s neck again while kept patting Tang Li Xue gently as if she wanted tofort Tang Li Xue back.
Yaya whispered to Tang Li Xue with their mental connection and said: "Yaya will never leave Xue alone again and make Xue lonely anymore. Yaya promise to always be by Xue''s side from now on."
Tang Li Xue giggled happily after she heard Yaya''s deration and kissed Yaya once again before suggested to Yaya: "Let''s go and take a bath together now! We must go to attend the ss in less than an hour."
Tang Li Xue brought Yaya to the bathroom and took a quick bath together before went out to meet with Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others again.
Li Jing and the others asked with a tone full of worry about why Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao did not attend any ss in these two days.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao replied honestly to Li Jing and the others that they were undergoing a crucial evolution process in these two days, so they could not attend any ss.
Of course, they did not tell anything about how Tang Li Xue helped them evolved into Beast Lord at all.
Li Jing and the others could only stare at Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao with eyes full of envy and jealousy, but they still congratted Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao for their evolution.
Tang Li Xue and the other was about to enter the Education Building together, but they were obstructed by someone again like usual.
But this time they reflexively wanted to turn back and ran away!
"You three surely have the great courage to dare to skip ss for two days!" Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently at Tang Li Xue and the others as usual but the menacing aura radiated from her slender figure was enough to make them shuddered in fear.
"Wa¡ wait, Instructor Lan! Silly Fox and Bingbing were undergoing their evolution into Beast Lord in those two days! That is why we could not attend any ss!" Tang Li Xue quickly exined before Instructor Mei Lan could punish them or reduce their credits because of that.
"Eh? Really?" Instructor Mei Lan observed Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao for a few moments.
Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes were glittering brighter and brighter, the longer she stared at Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
"Good, good, you two are really good!" Instructor Mei Lan giggled and praised them in admiration.
"Congrattion on you two! I give Little Xue 10,000 credits for the preparation of her evolution before. I should give you 50,000 credits each to you two for your preparation before evolution, but I will still give it to you two now. Just think of it as your congrattory gift." Instructor Mei Lan nodded at Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao in satisfaction and took out her white jade badge from her space pouch.
Two white lights shot out from Instructor Mei Lan''s white jade badge and entered into the bronze badge of Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao werepletely dumbfounded. They never thought that they could get 50,000 credits so easily like this.
Just 5,000 credits were such a huge amount for them now so getting 50,000 credits so suddenly like this made them felt like a beggar who became a millionaire in an instant.
Now they did not need to worry about not having enough credits for betting with Mogui''s teamter.
"Let''s go in! We will enter our ssroom and begin today''s lesson!" Instructor Mei Lan said as she led Tang Li Xue and the others into the Education Building.
"By the way, only Bing Yi and Silly Fox who evolved into Beast Lord then why Little Xue also skipped the ss for two days? Minus 2,000 credits for Little Xue as the punishment!" Instructor Mei Lan spoke as she deduced Tang Li Xue''s credits casually.
Tang Li Xue almost wanted to cry when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words. She already erased her presence to the most minimum, hoping for Instructor Mei Lan to forget about her.
But Instructor Mei Lan still remembered to punish her in the end.
"Instructor Lan, it¡ it is not my fault! I was inside Silly Fox''s room when both of them evolve into Beast Lord! So how could I go out of the room in that kind of situation?!" Tang Li Xue tried to argue.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at Tang Li Xue and chuckled then said: "Oh, really? Then why did you not call for the Residential Building staff with themunication rune at the ck box behind the door?"
Tang Li Xue: "....."
''Wait is there really a function like that? Why did I never know about that?'' Tang Li Xue stared quizzically at Hei Yinghao, Bing Yi, Li Jing, and the others, but they only shrugged at her indicated that they also did not know about that.
Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips twitched a bit in discontentment, but she could only swallow her dissatisfaction.
After entered their ssroom, Instructor Mei Lan asked Tang Li Xue and her team with the solemn expression: "Your team is quite strong now. So it is the time for me as your Instructor to give you two options to consider."
"Eh? Two options? What options?" Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao looked confused and asked Instructor Mei Lan together.
"I can either give the three of you the letter of rmendation to promote you all to the Elite ss, or you all can also choose to keep staying at Inspector ss with me as your instructor. Which one will you choose?" Instructor Mei Lan smiled at them and patiently waited for their answer.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao looked at each other in confusion and hesitation. This question was too sudden, so they did not even know what to choose or which option was better for their future.
Chapter 219 - 219: Less Than 50 Percent Chance!
Chapter 219 - 219: Less Than 50 Percent Chance!
"Um... Instructor Lan, can you exin it more clearly to us?" Hei Yinghao asked Instructor Mei Lan in puzzlement.
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi also nodded toward Instructor Mei Lan as if they were waiting for Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled when she saw the eager expression of Hei Yinghao, Tang Li Xue, and Bing Yi.
Instructor Mei Lan coughed to clear her throat and began to exin: "As you already know before, with the letter of rmendation from me, the three of you can be promoted into Elite ss Students."
"Unlike the Inspector ss or the Executor ss, thepetition in Elite ss is much fiercer. The resources they get are determined by their cement on the ranking board. In short, the higher your ranking, the more resources you will get." Instructor Mei Lan even patiently exined the system in the Elite ss so they could think more clearly.
Even Li Jing, Huang Hao, and Gan Aomiao listened to Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation carefully too since they would also need to choose their future path sooner orter, just like Tang Li Xue''s team now after they evolve into Beast Lord in the future.
"What kind of resources we can get after joining the Elite ss?" Bing Yi squinted her eyes and asked Instructor Mei Lan.
Bing Yi''s purpose was to kill her elder sister andplete her revenge, so she must be stronger as soon as possible... at least, stronger than her elder sister.
"As I said before, the resources vary ording to the ranking. The ranking split into the top 10, top 30, top 50, top 100, top 200, top 300, and so on. But even if you all get the lowest ranking, you can still get 1,000 credits every week and 5,000 credits every month." Instructor Mei Lan smiled at Bing Yi and replied.
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes and eximed in her mind: ''Damn! So even the weakest Elite ss Students will get 9,000 credits every month without doing anything?!''
Even Tang Li Xue felt really tempted to join Elite ss right now, but she immediately frowned deeper.
If Instructor Mei Lan really nned to push them to join the Elite ss, then she should be looked sad or hesitant right now. But she looked the same as usual with a gentle smile on her face instead, as if she was confident that Tang Li Xue''s team will definitely choose to stay with her.
In fact, Tang Li Xue did not want to join the Elite ss at all.
It was true that Tang Li Xue need more resources like high-level [Rare] grade beast cores, credits, etc, but she could still get it all by bing a Master Inscriptionistter.
Tang Li Xue already had some treasures that could attract all the people''s greed, and she probably would get more divine treasures in the future.
If she was careless and identally leaked the information about it, she would probably be hunted by so many beasts and people at once relentlessly even if she ran to the end of the world.
In this vast Immortal World, genius creatures and prodigy were littering everywhere. She already met with the super cunning Fatty Uncle of Asura Demon Sect and the meticulous smart Instructor Mei Lan in this Myriad Foxes Academy.
Imagine it... Tang Li Xue only reincarnated into this Immortal World for less than a half year, but she already met with two smart people that could find her secret with only their hypothesis.
Tang Li Xue also only came to the two ces, and she already met with two geniuses like them!
Who knows if the other ces have geniuses with the sharp and shrewd mind like them too!
That was the reason why Tang Li Xue preferred to stay low-key as long as possible. At least until she reached Spirit Beast rank, so she will not attract any unwanted attention of greedy old foxes or people prematurely.
Tang Li Xue took a peek at Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi from the corner of her eyes to judge what they will choose.
Hei Yinghao looked so rxed and did not care at all. It was clear he would definitely always follow Tang Li Xue, no matter what Tang Li Xue will choose, even if Tang Li Xue chose to leave Myriad Foxes Academy, he would still choose to follow her too.
Bing Yi still looked very hesitant. She wanted to join Elite ss and get more resources for her to grow stronger faster... but she also wanted to keep staying with Tang Li Xue so badly.
Tang Li Xue swallowed her saliva to calm down herself and asked Instructor Mei Lan: "What we will get if we choose to keep staying in Inspector ss as your students?"
"Nothing..." Instructor Mei Lan''s was smiling wider and said leisurely.
Tang Li Xue almost slipped down from her chair and fell down to the ground, when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s reply.
"No... what? Nothing? We will get nothing from staying as your students?" Tang Li Xue''s voice pitched up a notch when she screamed in bewilderment.
Instructor Mei Lanughed at Tang Li Xue exaggerating expression of shock andzily replied: "Yes, you will get nothing at all."
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao felt extremely disappointed.
It was true they were hesitating right now because they still wanted to stay as Instructor Mei Lan''s students, but at least, this stinky Instructor Mei Lan should offer them some benefits first to them right.
Even the scammers should offer some benefit first to their victims before they could extort their victims!
"But... I can allow you to follow me when I carry out my mission in the human world." Instructor Mei Lan continued her exnation.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao felt incredibly baffled by Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
What was the point in following her to carry out the missions in the human world?
''Wait... Wait a minute...'' Tang Li Xue frowned and immediately thinking deeply.
''What is the job of Inspector again? Isn''t it to find the missing fox''s rtives, find precious herbs, heavenly fruits, some precious items, and so on? Since we would be the first people who find all of that, then doesn''t it mean we can...'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter in realization, and she licked her pinkish lips.
Instructor Mei Lanughed when she saw Tang Li Xue''s radiant expression, and she said: "It seems only Little Xue who can think of the true benefit from the second option."
Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others stared at Tang Li Xue with eyes full of confusion.
"The mission I receive will usually something like ''Find 10 stalks of Soul Strengthening Grass''. Do you really think there will be only 10 stalks of Soul Strengthening Grass in the ce where I found it?" Instructor Mei Lan sneered at their naivet¨¦ and exined in a mocking tone.
Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others turned brighter after they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words!
"I choose to stay in Inspector ss! I am Instructor Lan''s student! So how could I be the other Instructor''s student in the Elite ss?!" Tang Li Xue announced with a righteous tone. Her body was glowing with the heroic aura as if she sacrificed the incredible chance only to remain as Instructor Mei Lan''s student.
"I choose to follow Xue and stay in Inspector ss! I, Hei Yinghao will always follow Xue! Even if she is going to the deepest part of the abyss or the highestnd of heaven!" Hei Yinghao announced with a righteous tone too. His body was also glowing with heroic aura.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes while thought: ''Why are you saying it so righteously?! If you are righteous, then doesn''t it mean that all the stalkers in the world are the righteous knights too!''
Unlike Tang Li Xue and Hei Ying Hao, Bing Yi was still hesitating to choose between two options.
"There is no need to get anxious. You can think this carefully in these two weeks." Instructor Mei Lan said as she patted Bing Yi''s shoulder.
Instructor Mei Lan turned her attention back to Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao. She instructed them with a serious expression: "Before I can bring you two out from this Myriad Foxes Academy to carry out the mission with me, you two need to upgrade your bronze badge to silver badge first. The exam to upgrade it will be held in two weeks from now."
"The exam... will not be easy. So you must be really prepared for that. Little Xue, since you are that Sissy Boy''s student, then it means you are an Insciptionist. Make as many buff and life-saving talisman as you can and share some of it to Little Silly Fox." Instructor Mei Lan stared at Tang Li Xue and instructed her.
Tang Li Xue nodded to Instructor Mei Lan. She felt really curious about how hard this exam will be that, even until the sadist Instructor Mei Lan said ''not easy''.
After instructing them, Instructor Mei Lan started her lesson for today.
It seemed Instructor Mei Lan already secretly knew about their iing match with Mogui''s team, so she taught them about Elemental Compression today.
Instructor Mei Lan even stated clearly: "I already know about your match against Elite ss Teamter, but without any mastery about this Elemental Compression, your winning chance against is actually less than 50 percent."
"Even after Bingbing and Silly Fox evolved into Beast Lord plus me and my clone?" Tang Li Xue frowned and asked in an unconvincing manner.
With Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Tang Li Xue, and her perfect copy, their match would basically four against three!
So how could they still only have less than 50 percent chance of winning?!
"Yes, even after Bing Yi and Silly Fox evolved into Beast Lord plus you and your clone..." Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and confirmed her statement again.
"Why?" Tang Li Xue asked again. She still remained unconvincing by Instructor Mei Lan''s statement.
It was not that Tang Li Xue started to get arrogant or something, but with her current overall stats, which she got from her cultivation and level, she should be able to fight against any [Rare] grade beast.
"I do not know what is your species, you are already quite strong in themon Demonic Beast rank, but I do know that your current strength already on the same level as any Beast Lord. Unfortunately, the three of you only evolved just recently. Oh, well... even if you all lose this time, you will still get some valuable lessons from this match." Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently at Tang Li Xue and replied.
Chapter 220 - 220: Mass Destruction Weapon!
Chapter 220 - 220: Mass Destruction Weapon!
Chapter 220: Mass Destruction Weapon!
''Lo... what?! Losing 50,000 credits bet for getting some valuable lessons?! Are you kidding me?! No way!'' Tang Li Xue bit her pinkish lips, and her expression was filled with unwillingness.
''If we really have no way to win, I rather use my strongest move than losing 50,000 credits!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and took out something from her system inventory.
[Great Cmity Sticker]: Bad Luck is not contagious, but Great Cmity is very contagious. This mass destruction weapon could bring chaos and destruction to your world.
P.S to the user: Beware! Ran as far away as you can after you stick this sticker on your target! Safety is not guaranteed! Be surely prepared to die when you use this sticker!
''Holysh*t~!!!'' Tang Li Xue''s heart screamed loudly in danger and horror when she read the [Great Cmity Sticker]''s description.
Her hands trembled violently, and the sticker slipped out from her grasp, but she immediately caught it again.
Tang Li Xue almost wanted to throw this mass destruction weapon in her hand away out of reflex, but in the end, she decided to carefully put it into her system inventory again.
''What the hell with this sticker?! For God''s sake, the effect is too terrifying! C... Can I just trade this mass destruction weapon... I mean this [Great Cmity Sticker] with the usual eco-friendly [Bad Luck Sticker]?'' Tang Li Xue pouted and puffed her cheeks in dejected.
"Instructor Lan, can you tell us the reason? Can we win if we fix our weakness as soon as possible?" Bing Yi was also not convinced and asked Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan Chuckled when she heard Bing Yi''s question and shook her head.
She slowly exined to Tang Li Xue''s team more clearly: "When you are in Demonic Beast Rank, you only need to use more strength and more speed than your opponent to win. But when you reached Beast Lord Rank, you would also need two more specs to win against your opponent: Spirit and Control!"
"Spirit is used for sensing your opponents'' movements and resist against their mental type attack such as illusion, hypnotism, etc. While control means your mastery over your own divine abilities, and this ''Elemental Compression'' is one of the most important aspects of control." Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as usual and locked her gaze at Tang Li Xue.
"The concrete example is when I cut your attack with my vibration de in ourst sparring match. What do you think the reason is?" Instructor Mei Lan giggled.
Tang Li Xue frowned as she tried to recall herst battle with Instructor Mei Lan in her mind.
She managed to remember the moment when Instructor Mei Lan used her thin vibration de to cut her condensed [Sun Dragon w] in two.
Even in her ss, Instructor Mei Lan was meticulous enough to not mention any clue about Tang Li Xue''s deep blue me or the dragon w condensed from that, so Tang Li Xue''s secret will not leak out.
"Um... Uh... maybe because my attack is not solid enough?" Tang Li Xue held her chin with her slender fingers and answered with an unsure tone.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and said: "Your answer is only half correct. The reason is that I have higher mastery and control over my divine abilities, so the weapons I condensed from my divine ability are more powerful, more solid, more lethal, sharper, and more difficult to destroy than yours."
Tang Li Xue thought for a moment: ''But...e to think of it... my [Sun Dragon w], [Sun Dragon Fangs], and [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] arepletely different from the usual Elemental Compression because the usual Elemental Compression can only condense inanimate objects such as sword, spear, arrow, and so on, while my three divine abilities are more like animate objects. It seems I still do not excavate their true potential yet!''
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering brighter in hope and anticipation when she realized that.
"Okay, kids! I don''t know how much you can grasp, but I will teach you all about Elemental Compression today. I can only hope that this lesson will increase your winning chance by a bit." Instructor Mei Lan pped her hands and dered with a gentle smile on her face.
"Wait a minute, Instructor Lan! Can I ask onest question before we begin the lesson?" Tang Li Xue raised her right hand and asked with a solemn expression.
"Yes?" Instructor Mei Lan raised her eyebrow and nodded.
"How high the ranking of Mogui... I mean our opponent''s team in Elite ss?" Tang Li Xue asked while staring curiously at Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled and replied: "They dare to challenge and bully the team from the other ss like you without feeling any shame as the student from Elite ss, do you really think they could ce high in the ranking board?"
"So Mogui... our opponent''s team is actually ced at the most bottom rank in the Elite ss Student''s ranking board? We only have less than 50% chance of winning against one of the weakest teams in the Elite ss?" Tang Li Xue raised her voice in disbelief and asked Instructor Mei Lan again.
Instructor Mei Lan did not answer, she onlyughed at Tang Li Xue, then started to teach all of them about some theories of Elemental Compression.
But even without Instructor Mei Lan''s answer anything, her mockingugh was already enough to tell Tang Li Xue that her words were all correct.
.....
...
.
Instructor Mei Lan''s ss was finally over after a few hours of intense cram for the knowledge about the Elemental Compression to Tang Li Xue and the others.
Tang Li Xue and the others'' knowledge about the Elemental Compression have deepened, but the theory was no more than empty words if they could not use or apply it in the real-life battle.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao bid their farewell to Li Jing and the others, then heading to the second floor.
At first, Li Jing and the others wanted to watch their sparring match, but it would make Tang Li Xue''s team looks bad if they lose, so Li Jing and the others decided to go back to the Residential Building first.
"We have not seen you guys in these two days, so we thought you guys had already run away. But it seems we are wrong." The ponytailed blue hair guy from Mogui''s team sneered at Tang Li Xue''s team while mocking them with a tone full of sarcastic.
"At least, they still have some guts to get beaten by us since they dare toe here." The long braided red hair beauty replied as if she was really sure that their team would win today.
"So, are you nning to fight with us using your stinky mouth here? If you really nned to do that, then congrattion! You have already won! Your mouth is the stinkiest among us!" Tang Li Xue sneered back at them.
The blue-haired guy and the braided red hair beauty stared at Tang Li Xue angrily, looked as if they could not wait to p Tang Li Xue''s mouth.
"I already booked a sparring room. I know you all already impatient to fight, so let''s not waste any more time here and get in now!" Mogui said coldly to urge them.
Both of their team already wanted to fight so badly, but it did not mean they could fight here. They would get fined and harsh punishment if they dared to do a brainless thing like that.
They could fight to their heart content in the sparring room anyway, so why they need to fight in the lobby like this.
The blue-haired guy and the braided red hair beauty harrumphed at Tang Li Xue then followed Mogui from behind.
Tang Li Xue, Hei Yinghao, and Bing Yi also followed them and entered the sparring room.
Mogui did not say anything to Tang Li Xue''s team and only silently transferred his 50,000 credits to the referee then waited for Tang Li Xue''s team to do the same.
Tang Li Xue also took out her bronze card and transferred 50,000 credits to the referee.
Mogui sneered disdainfully at Tang Li Xue after she already transferred her 50,000 credits to the referee and said with a generous tone as if he deliberately yielded some advantages to Tang Li Xue''s Team: "You can choose the arena you prefer so you will not have any excuse if you lose against uster."
Tang Li Xue did not even bother to be polite. She shouted loudly after she took a peek at the room number on the wall: "Sparring Room Number 963, choosing arena: Snowy Mountain Peak!"
The surrounding scene started to distorted, and the surrounding temperature instantly dropped to the minus.
They immediately found themselves in the middle of the snowy mountain peak.
If the enemies chose, extremely hot temperature environment like at the volcano, Bing Yi''s divine abilities would basically crippled.
But in this cold environment, Bing Yi''s divine abilities would probably strengthen by two or three times!
Strangely, they still did not start to attack each other, but only started to appraise their enemies.
Tang Li Xue secretly took several talismans out from her space pouch. She used those talismans by throwing them to Hei Yinghao, Bing Yi, and herself!
All of those talismans instantly activated when it stuck onto their bodies as the dimyer of light covered their bodies.
Tang Li Xue, Hei Yinghao, and Bing Yi felt more strength surging up from within their bodies in an instant.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi realized what Tang Li Xue had done, but they did not mind it at all, since they need it to increase their chance of winning even if it only by a little bit.
After activating all the talisman buffs, Tang Li Xue walked toward Mogui, but Hei Yinghao stretched his hand to stop her.
"Xue, he is mine. I already lose once to him. But this time... I must win to reim my honor!" Hei Yinghao said to Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression.
This was the first time, Tang Li Xue saw Hei Yinghao''s solemn expression with some trace of anger and impatience.
Tang Li Xue giggled softly. She nodded to Hei Yinghao and thought: ''He is surely much cooler and more handsome like this. At least, he does not look so silly anymore.''
Bing Yi already approached the cold chubby guy with ponytailed blue hair, so the only remaining enemy for Tang Li Xue to face was the seductive beauty with long braided red hair.
Each of them already chose their respective foe, and they aggressively pounced toward each other without any hesitation!
Chapter 221 - 221: Fierce Battle on the Snowy Mountain Peak!
Chapter 221 - 221: ?Fierce Battle on the Snowy Mountain Peak!
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure turned invisible in an instant.
She also stealthy activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy in [Ethereal Form], so both of them were in the invisible mode right now.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao already dashed swiftly toward their targets, but when they almost meet head to head with their targets, they jumped backward instead at thest moment!
"Wha..." The chubby guy with ponytailed blue hair wanted to mock Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao, but before he could finish what he said...
[Tidal Wave]!
Tang Li Xue was not afraid or hesitating to summon out her martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent] in her [Ethereal Form] since no one could see her martial soul while she was in her [Ethereal Form] anyway.
She even used her [Golden Winged Serpent]''s big move, [Tidal Wave] as the grand opening of their battle!
On this Snowy Mountain Peak filled with snow everywhere, [Tidal Wave] would not simply calling normal water but freezing water with minus temperature mixed with ice and snow!
RUMBLE... RUMBLE... RUMBLEEEE~~!!!
The effect was better than what Tang Li Xue had imagined!
She actually managed to summon the giant avnche!
''Err... Isn''t this a bit too much?'' Tang Li Xue thought as she widened her eyes in surprise.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy jumped to the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s back, and the [Golden Winged Serpent] was flying upward to avoid the giant avnche.
While Hei Yinghao kept staying close to Bing Yi, and she used her divine ability to control the ice elemental to make the giant avnche split as if there was an invisible barrier around them.
BBBBBAAAAAANNNNNNGGGGGG~~!!!
Mogui and his team did not have any time to react before the avnche hit them square in their face.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy carefully observed their opponents'' situations from above, and she managed to saw that Mogui and his team were still calmly defending themselves with their divine abilities even under the onught of the heavy avnche.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy jumped down from the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s back andnded beside Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi.
Then Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy turned off her [Ethereal Form] and hastily instructed to Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi: "Bingbing, activate your [Freezing Field] now! Silly Fox, focus your fire toward there!"
At first, when Tang Li Xue told Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi about her n before they went up to the second floor, they still felt confused about Tang Li Xue''s n, but they still decided to follow her n nheless, because they heldpletely trust in Tang Li Xue.
Even now, they still decided to follow her words and did what Tang Li Xue told them to do.
Bing Yi immediately activated her [Freezing Field], and the blizzard started to blow out of nowhere!
Their surrounding minus temperature dropped even lower and lower. The cold weather on the snowy mountain peak became much colder than before.
Even Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao started to shiver a bit under this extremely cold temperature.
Hei Yinghao used his [Destruction Force] to gather the ck destructive force on his palm for a few moments, and he shot out the .u.mtion of his [Lightning of Destruction] at the direction where Tang Li Xue was pointing to!
The thick ck pir of lightningpressed from the devastating destruction force sted away the snow, ice, and freezing water in front of Hei Yinghao!
The target was the chubby guy with ponytailed blue hair!
Tang Li Xue''s n was simple. She wanted to defeat the weakest one among the Mogui''s team as swiftly as possible so they could drag the rest of his team into the 2 on 1 fight.
Why did we targeting the weakest one and not the strongest one? At first, Tang Li Xue nned to do so, but she quickly changed her mind after she heard from Instructor Mei Lan about how strong Mogui''s team was.
The chubby guy with ponytailed blue hair was still busily blocking the heavy avnche in front of him, so he did not have any free time to sense where Tang Li Xue''s team was or put his guard to anticipate Tang Li Xue''s team attacks.
BBBBOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
The destructive pir of ck lightning came out of nowhere and struck the blue-haired chubby guy''s barrier!
Even this chubby guy''s solid barrier failed to block this devastatingly powerful ck lightning and shattered without any resistance!
The blue-haired chubby guy has the divine ability identical to Zhiruo''s student who wielding the [cial Barrier] divine ability, but the barrier this guy created did not have the freezing effect like [cial Barrier].
However, this blue-haired chubby guy could easily adjust the size and thickness of his barrier in an instant, if he made his barrier thinner than the paper, its sharpness would even surpass the guillotine!
A troublesome divine ability which could defend and attack at the same time, so Tang Li Xue concluded that this chubby guy must be get rid of first!
Okay... Actually, Tang Li Xue only despised the chubby or fatty men for the obvious reason. That was why she targeted him first¡
When the destructive pir of ck lightning struck his chubby body, the blue-haired guy did not even have any time to scream as his fat body scorched and thrown off tens of meters away!
Without giving any time for him to breath, the heavy avnche mmed onto his scorched body and buried him deep under the snow!
Fortunately, the thin gold barrier made by the referee protected him in thest moment, so at least, he would safe for now.
Tang Li Xue smiled and grasped her fist tightly in delight, but she immediately noticed that Mogui actually wanted to do the same thing to them too!
"Watch out~!!!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shouted to warn Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao as she created a thick jade-like white wall with her [Energy Maniption] in front of her.
BBBBOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
Along with the deafening booming sound, the thick jade-like white wall exploded into tiny pieces.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy coughed out several mouthfuls of blood and thrown backward!
Hei Yinghao moved almost in an instant and caught the perfect copy''s slender body before she faced the same fate with the blue-haired chubby guy.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper as her expression turned solemn. Tang Li Xue could sense her perfect copy''s current condition clearly, and the wound she sustained was quite bad.
''Just like what Instructor Lan told us, this bast*rd is really strong! Change of n¡ I should try to finish one more of them so we can fight this Mogui together! I can only hope we can raise our chance when we fight him in 4 on1 battle!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she gritted her teeth.
Tang Li Xue ordered her [Golden Winged Serpent] to flying toward where the long braided red hair beauty was!
Although it seemed quite long, but the heavy avnche would onlyst for one or two minutes, so Tang Li Xue only had a few seconds left to ambush the red-haired beauty!
Tang Li Xue unsummoned her [Golden Winged Serpent] on the midair, and her slender figure plunged down straight toward where the red-haired beauty was!
Tang Li Xue somersault several times on the midair andnded gracefully behind the red hair beauty that still crossed her hands to resist the assault from the heavy avnche.
Tang Li Xue turned off her [Ethereal Form] at the same time as when she used her [Moon Splitter]! She also condensed a wall with her [Energy Maniption] to withstand the avnche, so it will not bury her.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue already trained this [Moon Splitter] diligently in these two days, and raised its level to 5, so its lethality already increased by several times than before!
The red hair beauty immediately noticed Tang Li Xue the moment when Tang Li Xue turned off her [Ethereal Form], but it was already toote!
CLLAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGG~!!!
The red hair beauty flew several meters away and crashed onto the heavy avnche!
Tang Li Xue''s n was going well, and she should be happy for it¡ but somehow, thatst sound as if the hard steel shed with the other hard steel made her frown deeper.
Tang Li Xue raised both of her hands and realized that her hands were actually trembling hard as the numb sensation was spreading through his entire arms.
''Damn! Why it feels like I am striking a piece of hard metal rather than a life fox! Is that girl wearing the thick metal armor under her dress?!'' Tang Li Xue thought and gritted her teeth.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] again, and her slender figure vanished into thin air like a ghost.
The heavy avnche haspletely died down a half-second after Tang Li Xue struck the red-haired beauty.
"So is this your only n? Hehe¡ Not bad! But it is still not enough to take us down¡" Mogui said as he leisurely walked out from the thick snow.
"At least, we manage to take two of your people!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied as she wiped the blood on her mouth with her long white sleeve.
Mogui only chuckled at Tang Li Xue''s copy as he said: "Really?"
BBBBOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
The red-haired beauty jumped out from the under the snow and roared angrily: "Who the hell dares to ambush me from behind?! Prepare to die!"
The slender body of red-haired beauty was instantly bulging up!
Her transformation was truly shocking!
Even Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy dropped her jaws in shock as they thought: ''Damn! What the hell with that divine ability?! Why don''t you change your name to female h*lk instead!''
Chapter 222 - 222: Tenacious Monster!
Chapter 222 - 222: Tenacious Monster!
The divine ability of this red-haired beauty was quite OP. It did not only increase her defense but also her strength significantly!
Normally, Tang Li Xue would copy this kind of OP divine ability without any hesitation and use it right away to fight head to head with this red-haired beauty.
Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips twitched a bit as she stared at the giant red-haired beauty current form and thought: ''But... but... she looks so... hideous and ugly now! Doesn''t it mean I will be like her if I copied and used her divine ability? NO WAY!''
In fact, she could not be even called red-haired beauty anymore... She should be called red-haired burly, red-haired bulky, or even red-haired ugly!
Her 180 cm tall seductive hourss-like body had transformed into 5 meters tall burly body.
Each of her limbs was as thick as the ancient tree trunk!
Even Hei Yinghao''s muscr body was no more than a little twigpared to this red-haired burly girl!
Although, her skin did not change color into green, but all of her teeth became sharper like a shark''s jaw. Her entire veins also bulging out and kept pulsing made her looked more horrifying and monstrous.
RRRRROOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRRRRRR~~!!!
The red-haired burly girl opened her mouth full of sharp teeth and roared out loud to Tang Li Xue''s team.
"Silly Fox! You and Bingbing will face Mogui first. Try to stall for the time as long as possible until I defeat that red-haired mons... red-haired girl." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy whispered to Hei Yinghao.
"Eh? But Xue... that red-haired girl looks very strong! Just let Bingbing help you, okay?! I can fight against that Mogui alone!" Hei Yinghao frowned and said his thought to Tang Li Xue.
Bing Yi also nodded at Hei Yinghao''s n. She was also worried that Tang Li Xue would hurt so badly against that savage-looking burly girl.
Tang Li Xue''s copy shook her head to refuse Hei Yinghao''s offer and replied: "You two don''t need to worry about me. I have my own n. I will never be defeated by this red-haired girl."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also had [Regeneration] skill, so she already fully recovered from Mogui''s sneaky attack after a few minutes.
Tang Li Xue did not want to hear Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao''s persistent persuasion anymore, so she dashed toward the red-haired burly girl.
The red-haired burly girl did not wait for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to attack her first, she immediately pounced toward the perfect copy and swung her thick arm without holding any of her strength back!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waved her palm, and she instantly created a ten meters thick wall in front of her with her [Energy Maniption]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
The ten meters thick wall shattered into countless tiny pieces under the red-haired burly girl''s powerful attack!
But the red-haired burly girl failed to find Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy figure after she destroyed the thick wall.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy canceled her [Ethereal Form], and she appeared out of nowhere on the left side of the red-haired burly girl!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already activated her [Golden Body] divine ability to raise her overall defense capabilities, so the recoil from attacking this red-haired burly girl will not make her hands'' turned numb like before.
''[Blood Ignition]... Quadruple Amplification... plus... [Moon Splitter]!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shouted in her mind, and she activated both at once.
The eyes of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy turned red like blood as she crossed her arms and waved both of them simultaneously executing a cross chop while wielding both of her palms like a pair of sharp knives.
Each of her palms was shooting out extremely sharp silver light sh!
BAAAAAANNNNGGG~~!!!
Two silver light shes hit the red-haired burly girl''s left waist!
Her blood spurted out from her gaping wounds only for a moment before the bleedingpletely stopped. Even the gaping wounds immediately closed again under the pressure of her massive muscles, only leaving two red lines on her bulky skin.
RRRRROOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRRRRRR~~!!!
The red-haired burly girl roared loudly in anger and swung her giant fist toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only sneered coldly as she activated her [Ethereal Form] again, and her body vanished into thin air once again like before.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
The red-haired burly girl''s powerful fist passed through the perfect copy''s transparent body and only hit the snowy ground under her feet.
It could be said Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] made her almost untouchable by any physical attack no matter how strong it was.
This was also the reason why Tang Li Xue did not leave this red-haired burly girl to Bing Yi or Hei Yinghao since both of them would certainly be facing many difficulties if they face this red-haired burly girl head-on, but she was different! Her [Ethereal Form] could perfectly counter this red-haired girl OP divine ability.
''But this level of toughness and tenacity is really troublesome! If this continues, my perfect copy will certainly get exhausted first before that female h*lk! Should I leave this female h*lk to my perfect copy for now and tidy up that Mogui first?'' The real Tang Li Xue who still hid herself deeply from the start frowned deeper and pondering carefully.
''No... These two are very strong. It will be better if I observe their strength and find their weakness first while waiting for any opening to finish any one of them in one fatal attack!'' Tang Li Xue''s eyes glinted coldly as she decided on her next n.
With her [Five Senses Enhancement] divine ability, all of her senses were unbelievable sharp, and she could sense what happens in two battles very clearly.
With her skills such as [Concentration], [Focus], [Strengthen Willpower], [Sharpen Mind], [Calction], [Prediction], and [Intelligence Enhancement], she could easily multitasking to find her opponents'' opening and weakness.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy activated the [Blood Ignition] she copied from Hei Yinghao previously with Quadruple Amplification, her movement became so swift, and she kept attacking the red-haired burly girl so rapidly.
The stomach...?wrist... thigh... calf... chest... even armpit!
But all of her attacks could only inflict superficial wounds to the red-haired burly girl!
The red-haired burly girl''s injuries kept closing the moment Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wounded her!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy jumped as she used her [Moon Splitter] again!
PPPPUUUUUFFFFFF~~!!!
She managed to create a cross gaping wound at the red-haired burly girl''s neck!
The blood spurted out profusely from her neck for only a half-second before it closing again just like before.
The red-haired burly girl roared loudly in anger and swung her giant fist toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy again, but she activated her [Ethereal Form] again and vanished once again.
''Damn! Just how tenacious is this monster!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gritted her teeth in annoyance as she condensed out tens of sharp swords with her [Energy Maniption].
More than thirty sharp white swords flew toward the red-haired burly girl at once, leaving many white streaks of sh across the air!
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
The red-haired burly girl swung her pair of giant fists around and shattered many swords at once so easily as if she swatting the weak flies, while the rest of the sharp swords failed to even prate her thick muscles and crumbled by itself.
RRRRROOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRRRRRR~~!!!
The red-haired burly girl roared loudly toward the sky in anger, and her burly body inted again from 5 meters tall to 8 meters tall!
Even all of her thick muscles became even thicker now!
''Oh,e on! Don''t tell me this monster can be stronger again?! Even her vitality energy bes richer? She also seems even more energetic than before! Does he really have inexhaustible stamina?'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy grumbled in frustration as her mood sank to the bottom.
The real Tang Li Xue could only shake her head as she decided to observe Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao''s battle with Mogui.

Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao approached Mogui while Moguizily yawned as he patiently waited for them.
"Oh? Have you already finished your discussion? I almost fall asleep because of it..." Mogui sneered at them.
"You are quite patient, aren''t you?" Hei Yinghaoughed mockingly at Mogui.
Mogui smiled coldly and replied: "Of course I am! Because now, I can teach you that any crafty n and scheme will be futile in front of the absolute strength!"
Mogui''s body emitted out the thick ck smoke!
Moguipressed... condensed... then solidified the thick ck smoke onto his skin!
Although, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were current Mogui''s opponent right now, but it could not stop them from admiring Mogui''s mastery over his divine abilities and Elemental Compression.
[Demonic Form]!
It did not take long for Mogui to finish his transformation!
The current Mogui looked like a ck demon with a pair of solid bat-like wings on his back.
He even has a pair of protruding demon horns on the top of his head other than his fox ears!
"Come!" Mogui waved his hand. His voice became even more hoarse and dry than before.
"Let''s go now!" Hei Yinghao shouted in excitement as he activated his [Blood Burst].
[Blood Ignition]... Eight Times Amplification!
Hei Yinghao even activated his [Lightning of Destruction] to cover his entire body as if he was wearing the armor of ck lightning!
While Bing Yi focused her mind onpressing the area of effect of her [Freezing Field] to increase its effectiveness by several times!
Bing Yi''s [Freezing Field] domain only covered 20 meters right now, but the temperature around her was so cold that any creatures who step into it would freeze in an instant!
Unfortunately, it failed to freeze Mogui as he leisurely stood inside Bing Yi''s [Freezing Field] domain.
Bing Yi knew her [Freezing Field] would not be able to affect Mogui, so she activated her new divine ability without any hesitation!
[Corrosive Frost]!
Chapter 223 - 223: Mogui’s Terrifying Prowess!
Chapter 223 - 223: Mogui¡¯s Terrifying Prowess!
Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡
Mogui was really surprised that the frost started to spread around the corrosive thin barrier on the top of his skin in his [Demonic Form].
Usually, the thin barrier will not only protect him from any harm but also melt everything he touched while he was in his [Demonic Form]! But now, his thin barrier was the one corroded by the frost and slowly turned it into fragile ice.
Mogui stared coldly at Bing Yi. He nned to crush this cold little girl first, but Hei Yinghao will not let it happen as he appeared in front of Mogui in an instant!
BBBAAAAAAANGGGG~!!!
Even with Hei Yinghao''s current inconceivable speed, Mogui''s reflexes still did not lose to Hei Yinghao at all since he could raise his hand and threw his fist to meet with Hei Yinghao''s powerful fist.
Both Mogui and Hei Yinghao took three steps backward.
"Ooooh? You have already got far stronger thanst time." Mogui praised Hei Yinghao, but his eyes glinted coldly as unnoticeable killing intent shone from the deepest of his eyes.
Hei Yinghao gritted his teeth and stared back at Mogui in shock and disbelief. He already activated his [Blood Burst] and [Blood Ignition] - Eight Times Amplification, his strength and speed should be already extremely explosive!
He even used his [Lightning of Destruction] on top of those all to increase his lethality to the maximum but still failed to even hurt this Mogui!
Tang Li Xue who observed their battle silently from afar frowned deeply and thought: ''As we expected, this Mogui is really troublesome too! While this female h*lk is somehow getting stronger and stronger the longer the fight went on! Sigh¡ It seems no student in the Elite ss is weak at all!''
In fact, even the blue-haired guy they already defeated before was far from weak.
If this red-haired burly girl was the tanker, then the blue-haired guy was the hunter. He could wield his sharp barriers like guillotine des, and he can control so many of them at once like his own fingers with great precision.
If Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao failed to defeat him swiftly, their team would certainly be in much greater trouble than now.
''Apparently, I must help Bingbing and Silly Fox a bit¡ but without anyone realizing it, so I can still mount a fatal surprise attack in the critical momentter!'' Tang Li Xue thought for a bit before licking her pinkish lips in excitement.
[Mirror of the Moon] active!
Copy Start!
Name: Corrosive Frost
Type: Divine Ability
Copy Completed!
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate at all and activated her [Corrosive Frost] too!
Two identical [Corrosive Frost] divine abilities superimposed and empowered each other in an instant!
The effect of two identical divine abilities superimposed with each other was not as simple as one plus one equal to two!
The effect would certainly be multiplied by many times!
Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡
Mogui was still fighting fiercely with Hei Yinghao in closebat, but his speed and strength did not lose at all with Hei Yinghao! Even though Hei Yinghao already increased his overall stats to the maximum with his divine abilities!
However, Mogui immediately realized that his movement was getting slower and slower. The frost was actually began to corroding his barrier faster and faster, it even started to corroding his muscles and skin!
The reason why Mogui could still maintain his thin corrosive barrier was that he used his vitality energy to maintain the barrier and make it regenerate faster than the corrosive effect of the [Corrosive Frost].
But now, the [Corrosive Frost]''s effect increased by many times and managed to prate his thin corrosive barrier!
For the first time, Mogui felt a bit anxious as he gritted his teeth in hateful and increased his vitality energy output by several times to regenerate his barrier faster.
When Mogui stunned for only a few millisecond, Hei Yinghao instantly realized it and took that chance to increase his [Lightning of Destruction] output then focused it on his fist¡
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Hei Yinghao''s fist imbued with hispressed [Lightning of Destruction] struck Mogui''s chest!
Mogui was thrown off tens of meters backward, but he recovered quickly and somersaults for a few times on mid-air, thennded heavily on the snowy ground.
Mogui''s body still slid several meters backward even after hended, and his feet left two long trails on the snowy ground.
Mogui held his chest in pain, but he still looked uninjured thanks to his solid ck armor in his [Demonic Form].
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in amazement and thought: ''Tsk¡ what an annoying divine ability! It enhanced his defense by so much! Looks like I will not be able to defeat this Mogui in one decisive surprise attack¡''
''It seems I must finish this battle first before focusing on Mogui! I am pretty sure we have to grind his stamina slowly and make him exhausted before we can defeat him. Even if the four of us ganged up against him alone, our win is still uncertain¡'' Tang Li Xue pondered in her mind.
Tang Li Xue watched back at the battle between her perfect copy and the red-haired burly girl¡ or calling her with the red-haired giant monster would be more appropriate now.
Her body already grew to twenty meters tall, even her looks turned far more monstrous and hideous than before!
Her white smooth skin also changed into thick rough red skin. All attacks from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only barely left scratches on her rough red skin now.
CLAAAAAANK~~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used her [Moon Splitter] toward the red-haired giant monster, but it made a sound as if she was striking a hard metal. She could only leave cross scratches on the red-haired giant monster''s skin again.
----------------------------------------------------------
Ding!
[Imperial Moon Dancer - Moon Splitter has increased to Mastered!]
[You have unlocked Imperial Moon Dancer ¨C Moonlight sh Step (Lv1)!]
----------------------------------------------------------
''Eh? What? Woah! I manage to unlock a new skill from my Imperial Moon Dancer Battle Style!'' Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in surprise for a moment, but a beautiful smile immediately bloomed on her face after that.
Tang Li Xue never thought she would get a new skill in the middle of a fierce battle like this.
But the surprise she got was not over yet...
----------------------------------------------------------
Ding!
[Blink (Mastered) and Moonlight sh Step (Lv1) can bebined into Moonlight Flickering sh Step with the cost of 5 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?
----------------------------------------------------------
''Wow! It can even bebined?! And¡ it only needs 5 Skill Points! So cheap!'' Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips and thought for a moment.
The ordinary skill from the skill list in Tang Li Xue''s system could only be upgraded 3 times at maximum, so this [Blink] skill already reached its limit after it upgraded from [Sprint] and [Dash].
Thisbination came at the right timing because Tang Li Xue''s [Blink] already reached [Mastered] level just recently.
''Yes!''
[You have gained Imperial Moon Dancer ¨C Moonlight Flickering sh Step (Lv1)!]
''I want to test this [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] immediately, but before that¡'' Tang Li Xue whispered in her mind.
Tang Li Xue stopped hesitating and dumped 500 of her free Stat Points to her Strength Stat, increasing her current 1,000 points of Strength Stat to 1,500 points while decreasing the stock of her free Stats Points from 1154 to 654!
With her [Innate: Strength] passive divine ability, which tripled her strength stat''s value, her current strength reached 4,500 points!
Adding 2,100 points from her cultivation, her strength had reached 6,600 points!
Not to mention the bonus percentage stats she got from her (Explorer) title, talismans, weapon, and equipment!
[Explorer] title: All stats +20% when the host at the ce he/she never visited before¡ and Tang Li Xue was clearly never came to this Snowy Mountain Peak!
Tang Li Xue even used Hei Yinghao''s [Blood Ignition] with Quadruple Amplification!
ROOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRR~!!!
The red-haired giant monster roared out loud in fury. She stomped her feet again and again trying to tten Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
She even used both of her giant fists to madly punched at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and leaving many deep holes on the snowy ground!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy started to feel tired, even her breath already turned ragged after she kept attacking while frantically dodged the red-haired giant monster''s relentless ferocious attacks.
Repeatedly turned on and off her [Ethereal Form] have drained more of her stamina than what she thought before, so she started to dodge the red-haired giant monster''s relentless attacks instead.
It probably would only take once hit from this red-haired giant monster to turn Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy into a thin meat patty.
But after Tang Li Xue has obtained [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], her perfect copy''s way of movement and rhythm waspletely changed.
She could dodge all of the red-haired giant monster''s attacks effortlessly, sometimes she would move so fast and leaving several after images, sometimes she would move so slow and let all of the red-haired giant monster''s attacks missed by itself!
The red-haired giant monster started to get even angrier, but the figure of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copypletely vanished from her view before appearing right in front of her eyes!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waved both of her palms, and created two long sharpnces with her [Energy Maniption]!
PUUUUUUUFF~!!! PUUUUUUF~!!!
Two long sharpnces lodged deeply into the red-haired giant monster''s eyes!
ROOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRR~!!!
The red-haired giant monster roared loudly in pain, but she did not try to cover her injured eyes but pped both of her hands toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instead!
The red-haired giant monster used her full strength in this attack, if it managed to hit Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, she would certainly turn into a thin meat patty!
CCCLAAAAAAAAPPPP~!!!
Chapter 224 - 224: Moonlight Flickering Flash Step!
Chapter 224 - 224: Moonlight Flickering sh Step!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy twisted her flexible body at a weird angle to dodge the red-haired giant monster''s powerful p by the narrowest margin!
But the powerful rolling shockwave from the p still pushed the perfect copy''s lithe body away!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy swiftly backflipped on the mid-air and her slender figure was flickered and vanished beforending gracefully at one of the red-haired giant monster''s forearms!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy dashed with lightning speed on the top of the red-haired giant monster''s forearms to the shoulder!
Her slender figure shed right and left to avoid being grabbed by the red-haired giant monster''s giant palm!
[Energy Maniption]!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waved her palm and the sharpnce instantly condensed from her energy, then shooting toward the red-haired giant monster''s left ear!
PPPPPUUUUUUFFFF~~!!!
The sharpnce pierced deeply into the red-haired giant monster''s left ear hole until the fresh blood spurted out profusely.
ROOOOOOAAAAAAAAAARRR~!!!
The red-haired giant monster roared out loud with deafening sound in pain and rage.
The real Tang Li Xue already dropped her jaw in surprise and forgot to close it for a few moments.
''Woooaaahh! Look at how my perfect copy moves... so fast, so efficient, and so unpredictable! This [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] is far more powerful than I have expected!'' Tang Li Xue admired her own copy''s movement and thought in amazement.
Of course, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could still dodge all of those attacks with [Ethereal Form], but she would need to turn it on and off repeatedly like before, which would deplete her vitality energy and stamina faster.
But with this [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy not only could move faster and avoid all of the red-haired giant monster''s attacks in a streamlined way but also could save her vitality energy and stamina in the most efficient way.
Meanwhile, the red-haired giant monster was currently trying very hard to p Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy using both of her palms.
BAAAANGG~!!! BAAAANGG~!!! BAAAANGG~!!!
Each time the red-haired giant monster pped her own body part while trying to crush Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, it made a loud pping sound.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used her [Energy Maniption] again and created a long rope with a grappling hook at the end of the rope.
When she was almost crushed by the powerful p of the red-haired giant monster, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy jumped several times from the red-haired giant monster''s left shoulder to the top of the head and then to the right shoulder before leaping down behind her.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy swiftly threw the grappling hook, it coiling around the red-haired giant monster''s neck, and then the grappling hook stuck on her rough red skin at her neck.
The perfect copy''s body stopped right at the red-haired giant monster''s butt!
''I want to see how you withstand this!'' The real Tang Li Xueughed evilly while dashed with full speed from behind the red-haired giant monster.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was held the long rope tightly with her right hand while waved her left hand and used her [Energy Maniption]!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used most of her stamina and vitality energy to create a giant five meters tall spear.
Following the movement of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy left-hand, the thick five meters tall spear flew with lightning speed...
PPPPPUUUUUUFFFF~~!!!
And the thick five meters tall sharp spear mercilessly stabbed into the red-haired giant monster''s butt!
AAAAAAAUUUUUWWWOOOOOO~~!!!
The red-haired giant monster cried in pain with an ear-shattering deafening voice! Several drops of tears and snot came out from her eyes and nose.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy loosened her grasp on the long rope in her right hand andnded gracefully on the snowy ground.
But she immediately held the long rope tightly again with both of her hands after that and ran as fast as she could from the red-haired giant monster.
The red-haired giant monster wanted to pull out the thick five meters tall sharp spear from her *ss, but before she could do that, the rope on her neck tightened up suddenly, and she almost fell backward because of it.
The red-haired giant monster intended to forcefully break the rope on her neck, but once again... before she could do that...
The real Tang Li Xue was running toward the red-haired giant monster with her full lightning-like speed, leaving a silver-white streak behind her, before finally canceled her [Ethereal Form]!
[Blood Ignition] - Quadruple Amplification... Active!!!
With her full strength without holding anything back, Tang Li Xue kicked the back tip of the thick five meters tall sharp spear!
BBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
Along with the deafening thunderous sound, the thick sharp spear sunk even deeper into the red-haired giant monster''s *ss!
PPPPPUUUUUUFFFF~~!!!
The fresh blood gushed out profusely like a fountain from the red-haired giant monster''s *ss.
UUUUUWWWOOOOOOGGGHHHHHH~~!!!
The red-haired giant monster cried in pain even louder than thest time!
But Tang Li Xue did not care about it, she immediately grabbed the long rope tightly and helped her perfect copy to pull it back too. She even used her [Energy Maniption] and transferred her vitality energy to make the long rope sturdier than before!
The red-haired giant monster''s feet already turned limp because of Tang Li Xue''s merciless attack, so she immediately fell backward because Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy pulled the long rope which coiling on her neck tightly.
PPPPPUUUUUUFFFF~~!!!
The red-haired giant monster forced to fell backward and sat on her wounded butt. The thick five meters tall sharp spear which stuck deeply in her *ss pierce even deeper into it!
BBBOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
This time the red-haired giant monster did not scream or cry loudly anymore. She only fell down limply on the snowy ground and lied down there without moving anymore.
Tang Li Xue approached the red-haired giant monster to check her current condition, but she still raised her vignt to the maximum.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she saw the red-haired giant monster''s eyes already rolled back, and the white foam frothing out from her mouth.
''It seems she already knocked out for real. Sigh... this is really not easy at all. Fortunately, I obtained this OP [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] at thest moment... who knows if I can win against this monster if my perfect copy must keep relying on the [Ethereal Form] repeatedly to dodge this monster''s crazy attacks like before.''
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and checked her perfect copy''s condition next...
Her perfect copy only has a few grazes and scratches on her body, but her stamina and vitality energy were alreadypletely exhausted as she lied on the snowy ground while breathing heavily. She could not even move her fingers anymore now.
Tang Li Xue decided to unsummon her perfect copy. Her perfect copy could not fight anymore anyway under that extreme exhaustion.
Tang Li Xue looked at the unconscious red-haired giant monster for thest time and said: "You are lucky I did not stick that giant spear from the front or¡ forget it."
Of course, Tang Li Xue was only talking nonsense, if she dared to do that from the front, she and her perfect copy would probably already ttened by the red-haired giant monster.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and turned invisible again just like before. She decided to head toward where Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi were fighting against Mogui as soon as possible.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were facing big trouble right now after Mogui activated another divine ability.
BBBAAAANGG~!!!
Hei Yinghao punched Mogui''s stomach with all of his strength, but his attack bounced back to him instead and thrown him off several meters backward.
Hei Yinghao somersaulted on the mid-air andnded in a half-kneeling position, leaving a deep long trail on the snowy ground.
But the recoil from the reflected attack still hit his internal organ and hurt him. He coughed out several mouthfuls of blood when he tried to stand up.
"Come on! Attack me more! Is this it? Is this all of your power? So pathetic! Tsk... So disappointing! I started to get bored now. I will start with you then..." Mogui mocked Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi harshly with his coarse dreadful voice before he slowly walked toward Bing Yi.
His cruel smile looked more hideous and abominable in his [Demonic Form].
Bing Yi waved her palm, and tens of sharp icicles were shooting toward Mogui.
But Mogui did not even need to dodge, all the sharp icicles immediately shattered into dust the moment it touched Mogui''s body.
Bing Yi frowned deeply. She waved both of her hands and creating threerge swords at once.
The threerge swords flew toward Mogui, but he did not have any n to dodge it at all and still leisurely walking to Bing Yi.
BAAANG~~!!! BAAANG~~!!! BAAANG~~!!!
The threerge swords exploded to crystal dust again when it touched Mogui again!
Bing Yi''s expression turned more solemn. She stomped her feet once and pped her hands.
Under Bing Yi''s ice power, the thick wall of ice instantly created around Mogui.
The thick wall of ice formed a dome-shaped prison like an igloo without any entrance and trapped Mogui within it.
"Since I cannot hurt you with my power, then I will imprison you! But it still far from enough! More! More! MOOOORRREEEEE~~!!!" Bing Yi murmured softly, but she shouted thest word loudly.
The wall of ice became thicker and thicker as more time passed, and the dome-shaped prison got bigger and bigger!
Even Hei Yinghao stared at the dome-shaped prison in amazement as his wounds started to recover slowly.
Chapter 225 - 225: Tang Li Xue VS Mogui!
Chapter 225 - 225: Tang Li Xue VS Mogui!
BBBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
The streak of ck shadow jumped out from the ground below Bing Yi''s feet and struck Bing Yi''s jaw all of a sudden, leaving Bing Yi with no time to react or dodge.
"Wha... What?! Hees from under the ground?!" Hei Yinghao mumbled in surprise, but his body already dashed swiftly toward Bing Yi to help her.
That ck shadow was actually Mogui, who dug the small tunnel under the dome-shaped prison and came out from the underground near Bing Yi.
Bing Yi''s slender body got thrown off several meters upward, and she spurted out a mouthful of blood when her jaw got crushed by Mogui''s powerful fist.
When a powerful melee fighter like Mogui appeared so close to Bing Yi, she herself knew that she was already defeated, but she still tried to muster all of her ice power andunch onest attack to at least injure Mogui.
Unfortunately, Mogui already knew it one step ahead beforehand and threw another attack to Bing Yi''s chest before she couldunch herst attack!
Mogui''s ck figure shed once again as he jumped with lightning speed toward Bing Yi andnded his lethal kick onto Bing Yi''s chest!
CRRRAAAAACCCKKK~!!!
Mogui''s kick sunk so deeply into Bing Yi''s chest shattered all of her b.r.e.a.s.tbones and fatally wounded several of her internal organs!
"Ice Girl!" Hei Yinghao shouted with a tone full of worry as he swiftly caught Bing Yi''s limp body.
"Kekeke... You do not need to worry about her. Soon I will make you in the same condition as her!" Mogui sneered evilly at Hei Yinghao.
A pair of ck demon wings behind him unfurled, and his ck figure flickered when he flew at breakneck speed toward Hei Yinghao!
Hei Yinghao: ''?!''
Hei Yinghao''s posture was still unsteadily in mid-air after he jumped to catch Bing Yi, so he practically could not dodge any attack now. He also could not even block any attack because both of his hands were upied by holding the unconscious Bing Yi now.
Of course, Hei Yinghao could use the unconscious Bing Yi as a shield or threw her away to block Mogui''s attack, but Hei Yinghao would never do something cruel like that. Mogui could see that and tried to take that chance to finish both of them at once!
"Bwahahaha~!!!" Mogui crazilyughed as he threw a powerful kick toward the unconscious Bing Yi mercilessly!
Mogui deliberately did that to let Hei Yinghao used his body to protect Bing Yi!
''Dammit! This *sshole!'' Hei Yinghao gritted teeth and twisted his body while holding the unconscious Bing Yi tighter in his arms.
It was clear that Hei Yinghao nned to use his back as a shield to receive Mogui''s powerful kick!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGG~~!!!
Hei Yinghao waited for a moment until his feetnded on the snowy ground again. He felt strange since Mogui''s attack did not reach him, so he turned around to check it.
Hei Yinghao found out that Mogui was the one who was thrown off several meters backward this time as a familiar beautiful slender figure filled with heroic aura appeared in front of him.
"Xue!" Hei Yinghao''s obsidian ck eyes were glittering with passion and affection when he shouted Tang Li Xue''s name.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head to Hei Yinghao and told him: "Bring Bingbing to somewhere safe as quickly as possible. We will face this guy together after that!"
The dim gold protection shield from the referee was already protecting Bing Yi right now, but they still could not be so sure if it will be enough to protect the dying Bing Yi from any stray attack or shockwave.
Hei Yinghao nodded back to Tang Li Xue and brought Bing Yi away as fast as he could to the safe ce.
"So you have already defeated my teammate. As I expected from the person who killed my little brother, your strength did not disappoint me at all." Mogui praised Tang Li Xue with his hoarse heavy voice.
He got up leisurely. It seemed Tang Li Xue''s attack did not hurt him at all.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply. Although, she never expected that her full power attack would instantly defeat this Mogui, but at least, she felt it should be enough to hurt him.
Who knew that Mogui still remained unharmed even after he received such a powerful surprise attack from Tang Li Xue?!
''His defense is very strong! This will be troublesome! If only I have a defense pration skill or technique... Sigh... I really should try to steal the manual of the [Heaven Splitting Wave] technique from Asura Demon Sect before. The defense pration technique is too useful to fight against the resilient demonic beast like this Mogui or the previous red-haired monster.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in depression.
Mogui pped his demon wings again and flew toward Tang Li Xue with unimaginable speed.
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate and used her newest Battle Style she obtained in the previous fight!
She easily dodged Mogui''s charge by twisting her upper body, but Mogui did not give up and threw rapid punches toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue flexibly tilted her body right and left so swiftly leaving several afterimages every time she moved her body!
None of Mogui''s rapid attacks could even touch the hem of her white clothes!
After obtained the [Moon Splitter], Tang Li Xue was still confused about the difference between the skills and Battle Style.
However, Tang Li Xue understood everything clearly now after she obtained this [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
Skills were just like the skill in the game, it could not be changed, and the way of its application was also quite limited. When the level increased, it will be more a bit powerful, but that was all of it.
Battle Style was different from skills. It could be changed or modified ording to the user''s preference and situation. The way of its application was also very wide. When the level increased, it means the user will be more proficient in using it.
Any skills also required the user to activate it in order to use it, but Battle Style came from the bloodline of the user, so the user will use it reflexively.
Just like how Tang Li Xue used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge all of Mogui''s attacks right now instead of dodging randomly ording to her instinct like before.
Added all of her skills like such as [Concentration], [Increase Evasion], [Increase uracy], [Decrease Reaction-Time], [Focus], [Strengthen Willpower],?[Sharpen Mind], [Calction], [Prediction], and [Intelligence Enhancement] plus her [Spirit Perception], Tang Li Xue could even dodge all of Mogui''s attacks with her eyes closed!
Tang Li Xue flicked her fingers, and [Moon Splitter] was shooting out in an instant.
After [Moon Splitter] reached the Mastered level, Tang Li Xue did not need to make the exaggerating moves with both of her hands anymore to shot it out. Just one flick of fingers was enough.
The three meters cross silver light shed out and hit right at Mogui''s chest!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGG~~!!!
This blow should be enough to cut even an armored enemy to four pieces, yet Mogui still remained unwounded at all even after he took it head-on!
He only took several steps backward!
"Kekeke¡ Fast and powerful! So interesting! So exciting! You are far more entertaining than the previous two!" Moguiughed evilly whileplimented Tang Li Xue again.
"Xue! I have already put Ice Girl somewhere safe ten kilometers away from here!" Hei Yinghao ran back to Tang Li Xue''s side with a silly smile on his face.
Tang Li Xue did not say anything to Hei Yinghao and started to think deeply.
''Now what? Should I drag this battle as long as possible and chipping his stamina bit by bit until hepletely exhausted before defeating him¡ But what if he has more stamina than us, and we are exhausted first before him¡''
''Or??? maybe I and Silly Fox should go all out right now and try to defeat him with our full strength as fast as possible?''
Tang Li Xue still remained indecisive, so she decided to ask Hei Yinghao: "What kind of divine abilities or Battle Style he used when he fought against you before?"
"Umm¡ He is very strong and fast¡ as strong and fast as me after I use my [Blood Ignition] - Eight Times Amplification! But the most annoying is his divine ability to reflect back any blow! It is really nasty!" Hei Yinghao tried to remember for a few moments before exined everything to Tang Li Xue.
"He is as strong and fast as you after you use Eight Times Amplification? Impossible!" Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise and raised her voice a bit in disbelief.
"That''s true!" Hei Yinghao whispered back to Tang Li Xue.
''But why I feel that he is not that fast when fighting against me before? Is he holding back his strength? That''s impossible, right?'' Tang Li Xue thought harder and frowned deeper.
Tang Li Xue''s skills such as [Concentration], [Focus], [Sharpen Mind], [Calction], [Prediction], and [Intelligence Enhancement] plus her [Spirit Perception] helped her to deduce some important clues about Mogui''s divine abilities.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter after she grasped the weakness of Mogui''s divine abilities.
"Oi, oi, oi! Have you two finished your discussion? I am starting to get bored here!" Mogui yawned while asked Tang Li Xue and Tang Li Xue with a tone full of arrogance and confidence.
"Of course, we are already done¡" Tang Li Xue replied and smiled back at Mogui.
Chapter 226 - 226: Fatal Weakness!
Chapter 226 - 226: Fatal Weakness!
"Let''s go, Xue! We can surely win against him if we face him together!" Hei Yinghao said to Tang Li Xue with a tone full of excitement.
However, Tang Li Xue shook her head and replied: "No, I will face him alone."
"X... Xue! Why?!" Hei Yinghao cried out to Tang Li Xue. His eyes became teary, and his face turned pale as if Tang Li Xue chose to abandon him.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes at him and whispered: "I got a clue about this Mogui''s divine ability and weakness. I will fight him alone, but you must always be ready to attack with your most powerful ck lightning any time ording to my sign. Do you understand?"
Hei Yinghao''s expression turned solemn after he heard Tang Li Xue''s exnation. He nodded back to Tang Li Xue and replied: "I understand! Xue, do not worry! I will be ready at any time!"
After hearing Hei Yinghao''s reply, Tang Li Xue''s slender figure shed as she dashed toward Hei Yinghao with unimaginable speed leaving several afterimages behind her!
It was obvious that she unconsciously used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] again to be able to move like that, as though the [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] itself already integrated deeply into every part of her body.
This was the difference between ordinary skills and Battle Style engraved deeply in the bloodline!
Mogui grinned widely at Tang Li Xue made his hideous face turned even more horrifying.
Tang Li Xue sneered mischievously at Mogui as if she was teasing him before she did something unexpected...
[Divine Possession!]
[Divine Possession duration: 00:30:00]
Yes, Tang Li Xue really did something unexpected this time!
She actually decided to enter the [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya in her system storage!
Before this sparring match against Mogui''s team, Tang Li Xue already discussed some strategies with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao. One of them was to let Tang Li Xue ''hide'' Yaya so Tang Li Xue could enter [Divine Possession] mode anytime with Yaya.
Was this against the rules?
Of course not! Yaya was Tang Li Xue''spanion and one of their precious teammate after all!
But Tang Li Xue''s team would never let any person from Mogui''s team to realize this at all, because who knows if they made this as an excuse to not admit their defeat or renege from paying for their losing bet.
Four pairs of crystal-like rainbow fairy wings sprouted out from Tang Li Xue''s back, and the silver tiara decorated with many glittering green emeralds appeared on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
Even the tip of Tang Li Xue''s gorgeous silky smooth silver hair changed color into green.
It was clear from all of those and the longer duration of [Divine Possession] that the synchronization level between Tang Li Xue and Yaya got higher than before.
Tang Li Xue felt the euphoric feeling spreading through her entire body when the Yaya''s wind elemental blended with all of her energies in her body.
However, Tang Li Xue immediately grimaced in aggravation when the scorching heat sensation was rising from her Dantian.
She knew this must be caused by the Phoenix of Pride inside her Dantian. It did not like it when Tang Li Xue only did [Divine Possession] with Yaya, so it also wanted toe out and assimte with Tang Li Xue.
The Phoenix of Pride''s feeling right now was the same as when the parent was only ying with only the younger child, but the older child also wanted to join and y with its parent too.
Tang Li Xue tried to persuade and pacify the Phoenix of Pride for a few seconds before itplied with Tang Li Xue''s wish and went back to sleep.
Both Yaya and the Phoenix of Pride were pure and innocent. They were good kids. Although, they would do something naughty from the time to time, but Tang Li Xue did not mind it at all since it was their way to grow and be more matureter.
Tang Li Xue also honestly felt bad for treating the Phoenix of Pride like that, but she did not have any other choice since she did not want to expose the Phoenix of Pride yet... at least, not until she managed to reach Spirit Beast rank!
With Yaya''s blessing as Wind Elemental Spirit, skills, and divine ability such as [Fast Flight], [Gale Step], [Extreme Speed], and [Wind God''s Eyes]bined with Tang Li Xue''s [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], Tang Li Xue''s current speed already reached inconceivable level!
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure instantly vanished from Mogui''s eyes!
The reason was not that she used her [Ethereal Form] to be invisible, but because she was moving too fast for Mogui to see with his n.a.k.e.d eyes!
"Wha..." Mogui eximed in shock, but before he could finish his words... something hard already struck his face!
BBBAAAAAAAAANNNGGGG~~!!!
Tang Li Xue shot a [High-Pressure Air Bullet], and it managed to hit Mogui''s face, but he merely took two steps back.
[Wind Sword]!
Thirty [Wind Swords] lined up neatly around with Tang Li Xue and Mogui at the center!
"Elemental Compression!" Tang Li Xue murmured while controlled her wind power in such a meticulous manner.
Each of two [Wind Swords] was merging into one. The thirty [Wind Sword] was decreasing into fifteen [Wind Swords] in an instant, but the aura it gave was twice more terrifying than before!
"Not yet! Again!" Tang Li Xue yelled and controlled her wind power even more meticulous than before.
This time, each of three [Wind Swords] was merging into one!
The fifteen extremely sharp [Wind Swords] wasbined into five [Wind Swords], the sharpness aura it gave was enough to send a chill on everyone''s spine!
"GO!" Tang Li Xue shouted and waved her hand.
Following Tang Li Xue''s order, fivepressed [Wind Swords] bared their sharp edge to Mogui and shed toward him!
PUUFFF~~!!! PUUFFF~~!!! PUUFFF~~!!!
The twopressed [Wind Swords] actually failed to prate Mogui''s chest and stomach, but the rest three managed to pierce his neck, left cheek, and back. Although, it could only prate a few centimeters deep.
Tang Li Xue mercilessly controlled the fivepressed [Wind Swords] to continuously stab at Mogui''s weak points while kept using her [Wind des] and [High-Pressure Air Bullet] to harass him from a few meters away.
"GUUUAAAARRRGGGHHHH~~!!!" Mogui roared out loud. The fivepressed [Wind Swords] were bounced off the moment it touched his body and shattered back into the wind.
"Silly Fox!" Tang Li Xue shouted at Hei Yinghao while activating her [Mirror of the Moon] to copy Mogui''s divine ability.
[Mirror of the Moon]!
Copy Start!
Name: Demonic Providence
Type: Divine Ability
Copy Completed!
Hei Yinghao already used his [Destruction Force] to gather the ck destructive force on his palm a few minutes before and waited patiently for Tang Li Xue''s next instruction.
When Hei Yinghao heard Tang Li Xue''s call, he immediately used the .u.mtion of his ck destructive force and shot out the concentrated [Lightning of Destruction] toward Mogui!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
Thepressed [Lightning of Destruction] struck Mogui''s armored body made him flew several tens of meters backward!
The ck lightning of destruction stopped for a moment before spreading around his entire body.
Mogui''s pride ck armor was filled with countless cracks as it received the devastating lethal strike from the ck lightning for Mogui.
Thispressed [Lightning of Destruction] was far more lethal than the previous one Hei Yinghao shot toward the blue-haired guy.
Tang Li Xue took a peek at the effect of Mogui''s divine ability she copied just now.
------------------------------------------------------------------
[Demonic Providence]: Increased user''s strength and agility ording to the number of attacks received by the user. (Each stack add 5% strength and agility)
The user can also discharge 20 stacks to activate the [Reflection] effect (Reflect back any kind of attack).
(Stack: 0/65) (The maximum number of stacks determined by the user''s defense)
------------------------------------------------------------------
''Ooohh¡ this [Demonic Providence] is pretty awesome! Combine this with that demonic armor-type divine ability of his, no wonder he is so powerful¡ This divine ability must be also the reason why he keeps provoking us to attack him first.'' Tang Li Xue nodded her head in understanding and tried to activate her [Golden Body] divine ability.
The sheen of golden light covered Tang Li Xue''s entire body, and the maximum number of the stacks increased from 65 to 105.
''No wonder Silly Fox and Bingbing almost defeated by this Mogui! With Bingbing''s [Corrosive Frost], Mogui''s [Demonic Providence] should be increased so rapidly to maximum! That also the reason why Mogui can fight with the speed and strength almost surpasses even the Silly Fox with his Eight Amplification before!'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Bing Yi''s [Corrosive Frost] was damage over time (DoT) attack after all. While every time Mogui received the damage or attack, his stack will increase by 1, which means his strength and agility will increase by 5%!
"GUUUAAARRRGGHH~!!! I am going to... No, I will definitely kill you all!" Mogui roared loudly. His hoarse voice was clearly filled with exploding rage.
He slowly stood up again and his ck armor, which was filled with countless cracks started to recover at amazing speed.
It only took less than one minute for Mogui topletely recover his [Demonic Form] to its usual state without any crack!
The expression of Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao turned very solemn.
They thought Hei Yinghao''s powerful lethal attack should be enough to defeat this Mogui, but who knew that they stillpletely underestimated how strong Mogui defense was.
''What a troublesome enemy! With this [Demonic Providence], he will only be more powerful along with the increase of his stacks'' .u.mtion if we gang up on him or keep attacking him repeatedly. We can only defeat him in a single fatal attack, but his [Reflection] effect could reflect back any kind of attack in exchange for 20 stacks!'' Tang Li Xue sighed out in annoyance and frustration.
Chapter 227 - 227: Merciless Tang Li Xue!
Chapter 227 - 227: Merciless Tang Li Xue!
While Tang Li Xue still grumbled in her mind, Mogui already angrily dashed toward her.
Mogui threw many punches madly at Tang Li Xue, but all of it was futile since it could not touch even the hem of Tang Li Xue''s clothes.
All of Mogui''s attacks could not even touch Tang Li Xue previously when she only used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], let alone now that Tang Li Xue already entered [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya and gained Yaya''s [Extreme Speed] and [Wind God''s Eyes].
''Fortunately, this Mogui do not have any powerful offense-type divine ability... Eeeh... Wait a minute..." Tang Li Xue murmured softly in slight relief.
But she immediately recalled the scene when Mogui shot the sneaky powerful long-range attack and almost defeated her team in the middle of the avnche. Fortunately, her perfect copy had protected them all with the thick wall created from her [Energy Maniption] before.
Tang Li Xue caught a glimpse of Mogui''s crafty evil smile with her [Wind God''s Eyes] and instantly realized that he will definitely do something bad soon.
"Silly Fox, watch ou..." Tang Li Xue shouted anxiously to warn Hei Yinghao, but Mogui interrupted her before she could finish her words.
"It''s already toote!" Mogui whispered to Tang Li Xue with a tone full of mockingughter.
[Extermination st]!
Mogui opened one of his fists, and the intense purple light already .u.mted on his palm!
Weng~!!! Weng~!!! Weng~!!!
The intense purple energy already .u.mted to the brim and ready to explode out any time!
Tang Li Xue could already feel the immense destructive demonic power gathered on the top of Mogui''s palm even from a half meter away!
BBBWWWOOOOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
Mogui hurled the immense demonic energy on his palm to Tang Li Xue!
The ballpressed from the tremendous demonic force magnified many times after it left Mogui''s palm!
''Dammit! I can dodge this extremely powerful attack, but it will certainly hit Silly Fox! Should I still dodge it or forcefully block it?'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and pondered carefully.
With her skills such as [Concentration], [Focus], [Strengthen Willpower], [Sharpen Mind], [Calction], [Prediction], [Intelligence Enhancement], Tang Li Xue''s mind spun far faster than normal. Even a few milliseconds felt like a half minute in her mind.
Unfortunately, she still ran out of time so quickly, and the ballpressed from the tremendous demonic force already arrived right in front of her!
''Ahhh! What if this extremely powerful attack identally crippled or even killed Silly Fox?! BLOCK IT! I MUST BLOCK IT!'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind and activated her [Energy Maniption].
A thick solid wall made from half of her total energy instantly condensed in front of her!
Tang Li Xue also activated her [Wind Barrier] and [Golden Body] simultaneously.
Tang Li Xue thought since her perfect copy could block this extremely powerful attack once before, then she definitely could also do it too now!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue failed to notice that Mogui''s attack this time was several times more powerful than before!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
The thick solid wall in front of Tang Li Xue evaporated into nothingness the moment the ball of tremendous demonic force touched it!
The ball of tremendous demonic force did not stop there but kept heading towards Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue could only grit her teeth and clench her fist while crossed her arms in front of her and put her defensive stance.
[Blood Ignition] - Twelve Times Amplification!
Who knows that Hei Yinghao activated his [Blood Burst] and the highest [Blood Ignition] amplification he could use right now!
His masculine figure turned blur, and he instantly appeared beside Tang Li Xue then pushed her away from the track of the tremendous demonic force ball!
"Xue... you should have put more trust in me..." Hei Yinghao whispered to Tang Li Xue with a tone full of frustration and disappointment.
Tang Li Xue watched Hei Yinghao smiled full of bitter irony to her before the tremendous demonic force struck his defenseless body!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
The overwhelming explosion has urred the moment when the ballpressed from the tremendous demonic force crashed onto Hei Yinghao!
The violent rolling shockwaves blew Tang Li Xue away farther and thrown her off several tens of meters away, but she quickly pped her crystal-like fairy wings to stabilize herself.
She was stunned silly when she saw Hei Yinghao''s broken body had tossed dozen of meters away like a broken rag doll in front of her eyes.
Tang Li Xue anxiously flew using all of her speed to catch Hei Yinghao''s broken body, but Mogui swiftly got in her way, and prevent her from getting close to the Hei Yinghao.
"Kekekeke... Where do you want to go,dy? Our battle is not over yet! How could you leave me alone and go to the other man? You still have not satisfied me yet after all!" Mogui said as heughed mockingly at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and stared at Mogui full of rage and hatred.
"So you are not satisfied yet and still want to y? Then I will y with you now! I hope you will not quit halfway!" Tang Li Xue replied with a chilling cold tone, which will make anyone who heard it felt as if they plunged into the middle of tundra.
Right now, Tang Li Xue was feeling very guilty to Hei Yinghao.
Many thoughts were swirling around Tang Li Xue''s chaotic mind.
''If only I believe in him more and dodge that attack... Silly Fox will certainly be able to dodge it too...''
''If only I stopped hesitating earlier and go all out since the very start...''
''If only...''
But there was no ''if'' in the real battle!
For the first time, Tang Li Xue learned the cruelty on the battlefield!
''Hesitating or having mercy to your enemies is the same as being cruel to yourself and your teammates!'' Tang Li Xue finally learned the true meaning of this sentence in a hard way.
Fortunately, this was still in Sparring Match and not on the real life or death battlefield!
Soon, Tang Li Xue turned all of her guilty feelings into rage and hatred toward Mogui as she opened her skill list window from her system!
[Increase uracy (Lv4) and Increase Evasion (Lv4) can bebined into Divine Ability [Auto Correction] with cost 0 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''YES!''
[You have gained Divine Ability (Auto-Correction)]
After that, Tang Li Xue pulled something out from her system inventory...
Of course, she would not use her [Great Cmity Sticker] in the sparring match like this. She actually took out her golden [Inscription Pen] from her system inventory!
Tang Li Xue twirled the golden [Inscription Pen] in her grasp skillfully, but Mogui could only stare skeptically at Tang Li Xue since he could not see the golden [Inscription Pen] in Tang Li Xue''s grasp.
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure shed as she pped her four pairs of crystal-like fairy wings, and she instantly appeared in front of Mogui!
Mogui: ''?!''
Mogui reflexively threw his kick toward Tang Li Xue, but she avoided it so easily.
Mogui felt a stinging pain in his chest, and he stared down at his bleeding chest.
He immediately realized that the wound on his chest was actually a rune that Tang Li Xue had engraved on his chest!
It seemed Tang Li Xue used the golden [Inscription Pen] in her grasp to carve an inscription rune on Mogui''s chest!
"Lin, explode!" Tang Li Xue made a hand sign and shouted loudly at Mogui.
KAAABBBOOOOOMMM~!!!
Mogui took several steps backward and coughed a mouthful of ck blood.
He wiped the ck blood from his mouth with his hand, but his expression showed that he was still too shocked and did not dare to believe that Tang Li Xue could harm him in this way!
If the rune inscribed on the nk talisman paper, amulet, or treasure, there was no need to make any hand sign or shouting ''Lin'' to active it, but it was different if Tang Li Xue inscribed the rune onto her opponent''s body! She needs to do it in order to trigger the rune engraved on her opponent''s body!
When Mogui woke up from his daze, Tang Li Xue already silently appeared behind him!
He anxiously threw himself at Tang Li Xue! Tang Li Xue might be faster than him, but Mogui has full confidence to defeat Tang Li Xue if he could hold Tang Li Xue in his grasp!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue only needed to activate her [Ethereal Form] to dodge Mogui''s moves!
When Mogui''s body passed through Tang Li Xue''s transparent body, she made another hand sign and slowly muttered: "Lin, corrode and ze!"
BBBAAAAAAAAAANGGGG~!!!
Mogui fell down, and his face nted onto the snowy ground when the ''corrosive'' rune and ''ze'' rune engraved on his shoulder activated!
Both runes had activated at the same time and started to wretch havocking Mogui''s body from the inside out!
It even began to corroding and burning Mogui''s internal organs bit by bit!
Tang Li Xue did not n to stop there. She turned off her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure appeared once again.
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure shed again, and she appeared beside Mogui, who still struggling to stand up.
The golden [Inscription Pen] in her grasp was moving at such unbelievable speed!
With all of her skills such as [Concentration], [Focus], [Strengthen Willpower], [Decrease Reaction-Time], [Sharpen Mind], [Calction], [Prediction], [Intelligence Enhancement] working at its maximum potential, Tang Li Xue''s brain could process the information about the rune she wanted to inscribe by many times faster than before!
While her newest divine ability, the [Auto Correction] will correct every tiny mistake she made!
Her speed in inscribing the rune already increased by many times and reached the precedence level!
"Lin, Paralyze!"
"Lin, Frozen!"
"Lin, Tremor!"
Chapter 228 - 228: How to Use Her Beauty Correctly!
Chapter 228 - 228: How to Use Her Beauty Correctly!
Mogui tried to dodging and attacking Tang Li Xue so many times, but Tang Li Xue in her [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya was simply too fast for Mogui to catch.
The current Mogui was no different than a boxing sandbag for Tang Li Xue.
Mogui threw a powerful spinning hook kick with his right leg to Tang Li Xue again, but Tang Li Xue only need to flexibly bend her slender body to dodge it while engraved another rune onto Mogui''s pivot left leg.
"Lin, Smash!" Tang Li Xue murmured while making another hand sign.
CRAAAAAACCKK~~!!!
"AAAARRRGGGHHH~!!!" Mogui tried to muffle his painful scream but failed to do so.
He pathetically fell down on the snowy ground again when the bones in his left leg bent to a strange angle because of Tang Li Xue''s engraved rune.
Mogui was terrifyingly strong. His ck armor made from [Demonic Form] divine ability has defense capability far surpassed even Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Body], and it could even recover almost instantly as long as Mogui still have any vitality energy.
While [Demonic Providence] could provide him with extra strength and agility, it even has the [Reflection]''s effect, which could reflect back any kind of attack!
His [Extermination st] was also an extremely powerful killing move. It only took one attack of this [Extermination st] to almost killed the resilient Hei Yinghao.
Technically, it was almost impossible for Tang Li Xue to defeat Mogui alone with her current prowess. Even after she entered [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya, Tang Li Xue would only possess far higher agility, but stillcking any powerful killing move to defeat Mogui.
Unfortunately for Mogui, Tang Li Xue has the godly golden [Inscription Pen] from her system!
-------------------------------------------------------------------
[Effect 6: Pration (Can prate any kind of surface or carve any inscription in any kind of surface)]
[Effect 7: Invulnerable Object (Cannot be broken by any kind of powers or tools)]
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Just these two OP effects already enough to thrashing Mogui''s formidable defense as if it was made from paper.
[Pration] could easily prate Mogui''s [Demonic Form] and engraved the rune directly into his ck armor and flesh!
Even if his ck armor could recover instantly with his vitality energy, but he could not do the same with his skin or flesh!
Mogui even already activated his [Reflection] effect several times, but all of those were only futile efforts because Tang Li Xue''s golden [Inscription Pen] has [Invulnerable Object]''s effect which means it could never be broken, destroyed, or affected by any kind of powers or tools!
It was not an exaggeration at all to call this golden [Inscription Pen] as a godly object.
The aspect that Tang Li Xuemented from this golden [Inscription Pen] was its inability to change its size.
Imagine if this golden [Inscription Pen] could grow bigger and be a spear just like Uncle Sun''s Ruyi Jingu Bang, it would certainly be a godly weapon without equal!
Tang Li Xue excitedly imagined it, but the golden [Inscription Pen] in her grasp did not stop moving and kept torturing Mogui again and again.
"Lin, Slow!"
"Lin, Decrease Strength!"
"Lin, Reduced Defense!"
Tang Li Xue kept murmuring and made several hand signs to activate the rune she engraved on Mogui''s body.
Half of them were to torture Mogui, while the rest of them were to decreasing Mogui''s stats.
Mogui''s appearance looked so miserable right now as he kneeled on one of his knees, but there was an unnoticeable sly evil glint in the deepest part of his eyes.
After fifteen minutes or so since Tang Li Xue started to torture Mogui''s by engraving the runes onto his body and activating it again and again, Mogui''s [Demonic Form] or the ck armor that protected his entire body finally crumbled apart into countless tiny pieces.
''This is my chance! I must defeat him before he can regenerate his new ck armor again! It is now or never!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she took a peek at the battle log in her system.
[Mirror of the Moon]!
Copy Start!
Name: Extermination st
Type: Divine Ability
Copy Completed!
Yes, Tang Li Xue did not remain idle at all when Mogui throw his [Extermination st] toward her and Hei Yinghao previously.
In fact, Tang Li Xue had already nned to throw her own [Extermination st] to meet with Mogui''s [Extermination st] before.
Unfortunately, she instantly realized that idea was not feasible at all since it took quite a long time to .u.mte the powerful enough destructive demonic power on her palm.
But now, it was different! Because Tang Li Xue engraved the runes on Mogui''s body with her right hand, while .u.mting the powerful destructive demonic power on her left hand in these few minutes!
''[Blood Ignition] - Quadruple Amplification!'' Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to activate Hei Yinghao''s divine ability to increase the power of her [Extermination st] even more!
"Mogui... your previous torture is for Bingbing''s payback, and now... this is for Silly Fox''s payback!" Tang Li Xue said with a chilling tone to Mogui before she tossed the powerful destructive demonic force .u.mted to the brim on her palm toward Mogui.
Mogui''s was putting an extremely startled expression for a few moments before he was grinning evilly at Tang Li Xue and replied: "Finally... Kekekeke~~! Finally, you fell into my trap!"
"What a fool b*tch! Do you really think I need to be in my [Demonic Form] to activate the attack reflection effect?! Idiot! My attack reflection effect and my [Demonic Form] are two separate divine abilities!" Mogui mocked Tang Li Xue with a tone full of arrogance.
Mogui thought that Tang Li Xue did not know about that fact, but on contrary, Tang Li Xue already knew it from the very start after she copied Mogui''s [Demonic Providence] with her [Mirror of the Moon]!
Then why Tang Li Xue dared to gamble everything by throwing her [Extermination st] to Mogui?
Naturally, because she already had her own means to prevent Mogui from using his [Reflection]!
For the first time, Tang Li Xue decided to disperse the fox mask she created from her [Energy Maniption], which always covered her peerlessly beautiful face, and showed it to Mogui at thest moment.
The bbering arrogant Mogui was instantly captivated under Tang Li Xue''s peerlessly beautiful face.
Tang Li Xue did not need to smile at all, even her cold chilling expression was already more than enough to make Mogui lost his arrogant bearing and be stupefied.
Everything seemed to turn blur and lose its color in an instant, nothing was matter anymore in Mogui''s mind, and only the peerless beauty in front of his eyes was the matter.
A pair of mesmerizing topaz blue eyes filled with innocent and youth, smooth silky long silver hair, seductive pinkish cherry blossom lips, and smooth white jade-like skin.
Mogui could not even think or remember anything anymore when he saw the true beauty in front of his eyes, which already surpass even perfection and make all the celestial beauties lose their charm.
A few milliseconds
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Extermination st] struck right at Mogui''s chest and exploded violently!
Even Tang Li Xue''s slender figure was thrown backward for several meters because of its powerful shockwave!
Tang Li Xue giggled coldly and thought: ''Even I need more than ten minutes to recover my mind from my own reflection on the mirror! As for you... I doubt you can even recover your mind even if I give you fifteen minutes!''
''Come to think about it... this beautiful face is really useful to stun any people for a few minutes! Next time, I must use it more carefully at the right timing like this since it could even turn the battle situation around easily if it used at the right timing!'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind and nodded in satisfaction to herself.
However, Tang Li Xue did not dare to lower her vignce at all, not until the referee itself announce the winner.
What if that Mogui still could survive from herst fatal attack, and even started to mount his counter attack.
Tang Li Xue took a peek at the remaining duration of her [Divine Possession] with Yaya in the battle log from her system.
[Divine Possession duration: 00:08:31]
''Only eight minutes left¡ I hope myst attack is enough to knock out that Mogui or¡''
But before Tang Li Xue could finish her thought, her surrounding scene started to distort, and she went back to the sparring room.
"Inspector ssTeam wins!" The faceless referee announced with a monotonous tone.
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes in exhaustion and exhaled in relief. She even staggered a bit as tiredness started to flood her entire body.
Tang Li Xue quickly canceled her [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya, and the unconscious Yaya automatically returned back into the system storage room.
The faceless referee transferred 100,000 credits to Tang Li Xue''s bronze badge before faded away into the formation inside the room. 50,000 credits were Tang Li Xue''s credits, while the rest 50,000 credits were the winning bet she got from Mogui''s team.
Tang Li Xue silently raised her bronze badge to ept it, but she did not feel happy at all. On contrary, this win felt like a painful big p on their face.
Today''s match could not be said that Tang Li Xue''s team has won because of their own effort.
Tang Li Xue''s team could only win against Mogui''s team because the match was actually 6 against 3.
Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Tang Li Xue, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, [Golden Winged Serpent], and Yaya¡
Without any of these six, Tang Li Xue''s team would certainly lose to Mogui''s team!
.....And do not forget that Mogui''s team was one of the weakest teams in Elite ss!
''Sigh¡ I am still too weak¡ I need to get stronger! It seems I need to train more¡ I also need to strengthen many aspects to make myself stronger as soon as possible¡'' Tang Li Xue absentmindedly thought while wore back her fox mask and waited for the medical squad toe.
''I need to deepen my knowledge about the inscription, train my proficiency in my divine abilities¡ I also need to understand more about Elemental Compression¡?Battle Style is also very important¡ sigh¡ I also must learn a defense pration martial art as soon as possible¡ It seems I must use my [Premium Cultivation Voucher] to do that.'' Tang Li Xue pondered carefully when the medical squad entered the sparring room and carried all the injured ones away.
Tang Li Xue thought deeply as she followed them from behind and heading to the medical ward too. She kept analyzed her mistakes and weakness from today''s match carefully, so she could try to fix her weakness while swore to never ever repeat her mistakes again in the future.
Chapter 229 - 229: The True Gap in Reality!
Chapter 229 - 229: The True Gap in Reality!
After arrived at the medical ward, Tang Li Xue opened Yaya''s status window in her system and pressed the > button to take her out from the system storage room.
Currently, Yaya was suffering the bacsh from [Divine Possession] like usual after she entered the [Divine Possession] mode with Tang Li Xue. Cold sweat kept pouring out profusely from her entire body, and she gritted her white pearly teeth to withstand the unbearable pain, which assaulting her entire body.
Then why Tang Li Xue was still fine?
Shouldn''t she suffer the bacsh from [Divine Possession] just like Yaya now?
Obviously, the reason was obviously because she secretly used the [Damage Transfer] and transferred all the damage she received in the battle along with the bacsh from the [Divine Possession] to her [Twin Moons]''s perfect copy!
Tang Li Xue immediately paid 3,000 credits to the medical squad to heal Yaya, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao.
Bing Yi''s wounds were the lightest among them, so it would only take a minute or two for the medical squad to fully heal her.
Yaya actually did not hurt at all, but the bacsh from [Divine Possession] was a bit severe. It took more or less ten minutes for the medical squad to cure her symptom.
Hei Yinghao''s injuries were the most severe among them. He basically took Mogui''s extremely powerful [Extermination st] head-on with his body.
Hei Yinghao''s body had turned ck. His chest had sunk so deeply inside. His skin and flesh were rotting, and some of it started to fall apart.
Tang Li Xue could not bear to see his current condition and almost burst into tears when she saw him lied down on the medical ward''s bed with almost undetectable breaths.
Even with the medical squad''s incredible healing prowess, they still needed more than an hour topletely heal all of Hei Yinghao''s fatal injuries and restore his pitiful state back to normal.
Tang Li Xue stared in amazement at the fully recovered Hei Yinghao and thought: ''The healing technique in this Immortal World is really awesome! If only I can bring my big brother into this Immortal World, then even his vegetative state can definitely be cured too...''
''Sigh... Let''s forget it for now! How could it be so easy to cross the world?! I definitely need to reach Deity rank first before I can do something like that... and who knows how long it will take me to reach that rank!'' Tang Li Xue shook her head and immediately shoved away that unrealistic thought from her mind.
After Tang Li Xue waiting for one hour or so, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and Yaya finally woke up.
Yaya pounced on Tang Li Xue as usual and hugged her cheek. Yaya also rained Tang Li Xue with many kisses.
Tang Li Xue smiled gently and kissed Yaya back once before she took out her bronze card and transferred the 17,000 credits each to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao''s bronze badge.
However, there was no joy or happiness in their expression even after they won today''s battle and got 50,000 credits from Mogui''s team.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao clearly understood that they could only win the battle because Mogui''s team looked down on them from the start.
If they fought with Mogui''s team once again, Tang Li Xue''s team has more than seventy percent chance of losing.
Because Mogui''s team will not look down on them anymore and be wary from the very start. They would certainly refuse to fight in 1 on 1 battle like before and decide to fight in 3 on 3 team battle.
Imagine if that fatty blue-haired guy trapped them with his barrier, the red-haired monster assaulted them with her monstrous strength, while Mogui protected his teammates with his divine abilities!
Forget about defeating them, it would be a miracle if Tang Li Xue''s team could even hold on for more than ten minutes against them.
That was the reason why Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao was very depressed and frustrated right now. They could not even hold on for more than ten minutes against one of the weakest teams in Elite ss.
Tang Li Xue opened her mouth and wanted tofort them, but she did not know what to say.
"I am leaving..." Hei Yinghao said with a firm tone and stood up from his bed.
He nodded to Tang Li Xue and went out of the medical ward alone.
But Tang Li Xue could see his pair of obsidian ck eyes were burning with the desire to get stronger to the point of insanity. It made Tang Li Xue feel scared and worry that he will do something crazy.
"Wait..." Tang Li Xue called Hei Yinghao and tried to stop him. She wanted tofort him for a bit and gave him some advice but before she could do so...
"I am going too..." Bing Yi also stood up from her bed and went out of the medical ward too.
Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips twitched violently and thought: ''What is wrong with these two? They are clearly acting strange! I hope they will not do something foolish like searching for the dark power or sign the contract with the devil...''
Tang Li Xue brought Yaya with her and followed Bing Yi from behind.
Bing Yi was actually heading out from the Education Building, but Tang Li Xue met with Teacher Li Wei at the Education Building''s entrance.
"You surely have great guts to skip my ss for two days in a row without informing me at all! You even dare toete today!" Teacher Li Wei said angrily to Tang Li Xue while gritted his teeth in rage and pinched her cheek so hard until she cried loudly.
"Aih~~!!! Aih~~!!! Pwechel Lee, I am weeelly sooyyy~! Pweese spaale mee~! (Teacher Li, I am really sorry! Please spare me!)" Tang Li Xue tried to apologize while Teacher Li Wei still pinched tightly and pulled her cheek until it stretched.
Tang Li Xue regretted it very much. She should pay 1,000 credits more to the medical squad andpletely healed her perfect copy too, so her perfect copy could take her ce now.
Unfortunately, it was already toote. Tang Li Xue could only wave her hand to Yaya and told Yaya to take her ce to follow Bing Yi through the connection in their mind.
''Even when facing the danger like this, Mommy Tang is still thinking about her friends first. As Yaya expected from Mommy Tang! Not only beautiful but also kind!'' Yaya thought as she saluted Tang Li Xue and quickly flew away to follow Bing Yi.
Then Teacher Li Wei pulled Tang Li Xue''s cheek and dragged her back into the ssroom...
.....
...
.
Bing Yi neither heading back to Residential Building to eat the lunch nor heading to the mission hall to take some missions and get more credits, but she was heading to the teacher and instructor courtyards behind the Education Building instead.
"Is this luxurious courtyard really Instructor Lan''s house? I will try to knock on the door first..." Bing Yi murmured to herself before knocked on the door a few times.
Tok... Tok... Tok... Tok... Tok...
"The door is not locked. You can enter..." The gentle voice resounded from inside the luxurious house.
Bing Yi''s eyes immediately turned brighter when she heard this familiar gentle voice.
"Excuse me, Instructor Lan!" Bing Yi said and pushed open the door then entered the living room.
Instructor Lan leisurely sat on the sofa while reading an ancient book in her hands, but she closed the ancient book and put it on the table when Bing Yi entered.
"You do not need to be so nervous! You can sit down now and slowly tell me the reason for you toe here." Instructor Lan said with a gentle tone and took out two empty tea-cups from the nearby cupboard.
Instructor Lan set the two empty tea-cups on the table and poured the tea from the teapot into it.
"Xue''s Little Friend, you can also sit and drink this tea. This spirit tea leaves are harvested from the Summersouth Continent. It''s refreshing and delicious. I am sure you will like it." Instructor Lan giggled and sat down back at the sofa.
The hovering Yaya got really embarrassed because she was discovered by Instructor Mei Lan right after she slipped into the living room.
"Yaya~~!!!" Yaya immediately babbled and lowered her head to apologize to Instructor Mei Lan with a blushing face.
Yaya slowly flew down andnded on the table, then bashfully drank the spirit tea in the cup.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled, she thought Yaya looked so cute and adorable right now like her little master before (loli Tang Li Xue).
Instructor Mei Lan patted Yaya''s tiny head gently with her fingers.
"You¡ why are you here? Are you following me here?" Bing Yi widened her eyes in surprise and asked.
Instructor Mei Lanughed and exined patiently to Bing Yi: "Little Xue should be really worried about you so she decided to follow you from behind before. But I guess she must be caught by that little Sissy Wei, and forced to attend his ss. That is why she told this little friend to follow you in her ce."
Bing Yi nodded her head in understanding. The warm and cozy feeling started to spread in her heart: ''Little Xue... Is really the best! I really like her a lot! Therefore¡ I must not make her disappointed¡ I should not be a burden to her¡ I will never want to be a burden for anyone ever again!''
Bing Yi''s eyes shone brighter as her will to get stronger was burning even fiercer than ever.
"Instructor Lan¡ I want to be stronger! Far stronger than the current me! Please, train me hard from now on! I don''t care if I must sweat blood or break some bones every day! PLEASE TEACH ME HOW TO BECOME STRONGER~!!!" Bing Yi shouted with a firm tone and lowered her head until it almost touched the table.
Chapter 230 - 230: Forgotten Effect!
Chapter 230 - 230: Forgotten Effect!
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and replied with a gentle smile on her face: "All right, I will teach you! ...And remember what you have said today! I will never ept any regretful words from you in the future..."
Bing Yi shuddered a bit after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s reply and started to doubt a little whether asking a demon-like Instructor such as Instructor Mei Lan to teach her was the right move or not.
But she gritted her teeth as her eyes shed with firm resolve: ''I must be stronger! To protect Little Xue... to avenge my little sister, my father, and my mother''s death... and to y my older sister!''
"Thank you very much, Instructor Lan!" Bing Yi politely thanked and bowed her head to Instructor Mei Lan.
"But only youe to me huh... I thought you three wille to me after losing the battle against that Elite Team." Instructor Mei Lan said with a tone full of disappointment and puckered her lips.
"Err... Actually, we are not losing... We are winning because of Little Xue''s preparation and strategy. Also, because our opponents underestimate us too much." Bing Yi murmured softly and exined to Instructor Mei Lan.
"Oh? So you all have won! Not bad!" Instructor Mei Lan raised her eyebrow in surprise and praised sincerely.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at the cute little Yaya who was currently sipping the hot spirit tea bit by bit and said: "Little one, tell your little master that she must join our special training tomorrow with her real self! As for the Sissy Wei''s Inscription lesson, just tell her copy present in her ce!"
Because Yaya''s mind connected directly to Tang Li Xue''s mind, Yaya could easily convey Instructor Mei Lan''s message to Tang Li Xue.
.....
...
.
The current Tang Li Xue was still in the ssroom with Teacher Li Wei. Teacher Li Wei was currently even punished her to recite the Book about 10,000 Runes out loud.
Tang Li Xue shuddered violently when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s message from Yaya. She really wanted to cry so badly, but there were no tearse out.
''Oh, God... So I must attend these two Demon Instructors'' sses at the same time starting tomorrow?! You must be kidding with me!'' Tang Li Xue cried in her heart.
After reciting all of it and made Tang Li Xue''s tongue almost detached from her mouth, Teacher Li Wei made her write everything she recited in the empty book.
It was really a hell punishment for Tang Li Xue, and Teacher Li Wei only let Tang Li Xue went home after she finished writing it without any single mistake.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue has skills such as [Concentration], [Focus], [Strengthen Willpower], [Sharpen Mind], [Calction], [Prediction], [Intelligence Enhancement], and [Auto-Correction].
Yes, the [Auto-Correction] also helped her greatly by fixing any minor mistake she made!
For the first time, Tang Li Xue experienced the greatness of this [Auto-Correction] divine ability! In short, this [Auto-Correction] divine ability would help her correcting any kind of minor mistake she made!
Without all of these OP skills and divine ability, she would probably need to pull all-nighters for 2-3 days to finish this Teacher Li Wei''s assignment.
Tang Li Xue dragged herpletely exhausted body back to meet with Yaya, and both of them were heading back to the Residential Building together.
Tang Li Xue brought Yaya to the luxurious restaurant on the first floor of the Residential Building, and both of them ate some delicious expensive delicacies to celebrate their winning against Mogui''s team.
Surprisingly, these delicious expensive delicacies managed to make Yaya leveled up to level 2.
''It seems the more expensive the foods here are, the more energy and EXP it contains... I should eat more expensive foods if I have more creditster to gain more EXP. Sigh... but it surely expensive... just this one dinner makes me spend more than 7,000 credits.'' Tang Li Xue pondered for a while.
After finished eating their dinner until they were full, Yaya immediately fell asleep so Tang Li Xue carried her in her palm and brought her back to the bedroom.
Tang Li Xue also wanted to sleep right away so badly after she put the sleeping Yaya on the top of the soft pillow.
"No, I can''t sleep just yet! I must use the [Premium Cultivation Voucher] and pick an overpowered defense pration martial art! Something even more powerful than even the [Heaven Splitting Wave] from Asura Demon Sect!" Tang Li Xue said with a firm tone while licked her pinkish lips.
But when Tang Li Xue took out the [Premium Cultivation Voucher] from her system inventory, she remembered something that she had long forgotten before.
"That''s right! I almost forgot about the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]''s third effect!" Tang Li Xue shouted softly in excitement so she would not identally wake Yaya up.
--------------------------------------------------------
[Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]
[Description: The Holy-Rank Divine Treasure belongs to the strongest of four Dragon Kings, the Sun Dragon King. This pearl is the culmination of its lifetime cultivation and effort but it shattered when the Sun Dragon King self-destructed itself inside the God''s Battlefield.]
[Effect 1: Auto refining, purifying, and strengthening any kind of me. elerate its growth and cultivation.]
[Effect 2: Storing the essence of Sun Dragon King''s me, Pure Yang Sun me.]
[Effect 3: Projecting all of the Sun Dragon King''s memories and experience into the owner''s mind.]
[Effect 4: ???]
[Effect 5: ???]
[Effect 6: ???]
--------------------------------------------------------
''If I can find some powerful martial arts from the Sun Dragon King''s memories, I do not need to use this precious [Premium Cultivation Voucher]!'' Tang Li Xue thought while grinned widely.
Previously, Tang Li Xue did not dare to touch this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] because she thought of it as a bomb that nted inside her Dantian and ready to explode anytime.
But now, the situation has changed after Tang Li Xue possessed her [Twin Moons] divine ability!
The [Damage Transfer]''s skill from [Twin Moons] divine ability will automatically be activated and will send all the damage to her perfect copy if this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in her Dantian suddenly exploded.
In short, her perfect copy from the [Twin Moons] divine ability will die in her ce instead if something untoward happened. Surely, it would need 9 nights for her perfect copy topletely recovered, but it was far better than if the real Tang Li Xue really died.
Despite having her perfect copy as the safety, Tang Li Xue was still quite reluctant to do so.
The reason was simple... It was because this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] almost killed her twice!
The first time when the Blue Phoenix of Pride brought it entered her Dantian, and the second time when Tang Li Xue evolved into [Umon] grade.
''Should I really do this... or should I just use my [Premium Cultivation Voucher]? But I only need to project all of the Sun Dragon King''s memories into my mind, so I don''t think something dangerous will happen... It is not like I want to use the Pure Yang Sun me, right?'' Tang Li Xue put her slender fingers on her chin and pondered her options carefully for a few minutes.
"Do it! I will do it! No, I need to do it! I have Holy-Rank Divine Treasure! Why I must let it rot in my inventory... err... I mean in my Dantian?! Isn''t this the same as having a treasure in my grasp but too afraid to use it?!" Tang Li Xue said with a firm tone and grasped her fist tighter.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and stored the [Premium Cultivation Voucher] back into her system inventory then summoned out her perfect copy.
The bacsh from [Divine Possession] onlysted for several hours, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was already fully recovered right now.
Tang Li Xue slowly closed her eyes, and her consciousness entered into her Dantian.
The Blue Phoenix of Pride immediately woke up from its slumber and excitedly chirped to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue chuckled and patted the Blue Phoenix of Pride gently.
Although, the Blue Phoenix of Pride always seemed arrogant and unreasonable, but its behavior was actually like a little child the same as Yaya.
After appeasing the Blue Phoenix of Pride for a while and made it back to sleep, Tang Li Xue finally approached the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] at the center of her Dantian.
Compared to Tang Li Xue''s tiny consciousness right now, the current [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] looked like a giant golden sun.
''Now what should I do? Just touch it?'' Tang Li Xue thought as she tried to poke the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] with her index finger.
''Eh? It did not feel hot at all?!'' Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise and reluctantly stretched her palm to touch it.
Strangely, the current [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] did not feel hot at all. On contrary, it felt warm and soothing.
''Sofortable¡ so cozy¡'' Tang Li Xue yawned as her eyelid turned heavier and heavier.
However, Tang Li Xue immediately shook her head and to clear her mind. She almost identally fell asleep here.
''Tsk¡ Now I know why thiszy bird really likes to sleep here!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue.
Tang Li Xue began to try all the methods in her mind to activate the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]''s third effect!
From kicking and punching it to chanting some magic words such as open sesame, hocus pocus, abracadabra, sim s bim, shazam, and so on, even try to lick it with her tongue but all of those were failed.
Tang Li Xue felt a great headache after she pushed and racked her brain to maximum¡
''Wait a minute¡ In any wuxia movie or novel, the user must use their blood essence to refine their magic treasure¡ There is no such thing as blood essence here, but maybe I can use my blood to activate it?'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter when she thought that.
Tang Li Xue''s consciousness was currently in her own Dantian so she did not have any choice other than slice her own flesh a bit to take a drip of her blood.
Thanks to her [Regeneration] skill, the tiny woundpletely healed in less than 5 seconds.
Tang Li Xue flicked a drop of her blood on the top of her index finger toward the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl].
FFFWWOOOOOSSSSSHHH~!!!
The blinding golden light was shining from [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]!
''SUCCESS~!!!'' Tang Li Xue smiled in excitement, but her vision immediately turned dark as if she lost her consciousness but¡
''Eh? I am still conscious? Why is it so dark here? Where is the light switch?'' Tang Li Xue thought while frowned deeper.
It was really a strange feeling¡ Especially since Tang Li Xue already has [Night Vision] skill. Technically, she should always be able to see everything so clearly in the dark.
''Whatever¡ Maybe I should upgrade my [Night Vision] skill? It already reached mastered level for a long time anyway.'' Tang Li Xue thought as she tried to open her skill list window in her system to upgrade her [Night Vision].
But she actually failed to open it!
Tang Li Xue started to be more panicked and anxious after she failed to open her system window so many times!
Chapter 231 - 231: Projecting!
Chapter 231 - 231: Projecting!
''Calm down, Li Tang Xue...I mean Tang Li Xue! Maybe I am in an illusion or even a dream... No, I should be in the Sun Dragon King''s memories, right?!'' Tang Li Xue forced herself to calm down and thought more clearly.
Her deduction from the facts seemed very usible, but there was nothing happened at all even after she waited for a very long time!
In theplete darkness where she could not see anything, Tang Li Xue herself did not know how much time has already passed, but she honestly felt that she already waited for many days or even several months.
Strangely, she did not feel hungry or thirsty at all...
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as her mind was on the verge of insanity in the endless waiting amidst thisplete darkness, so she finally decided: ''Let''s try to walk out from here!''
Tang Li Xue tried to move her rigid limbs, but she felt the weakness spreading from her entire body. She could not even stand up properly and could only crawl forward.
Moreover, the ground where she stood was extremely unstable and moved violently every time she crawled forward.
Bonk~!!!
Her head collided with something solid, and Tang Li Xue felt a bit of pain on her forehead.
''There is a wall here?'' Tang Li Xue pondered for a few moments before decided to throw a punch at the wall in front of her.
BANG~!!! Crack...
Although, Tang Li Xue felt her body was strangely limp now, but her punch was strangely effective!
Her weak punch managed to make a tiny crack on the wall. A blinding white light shone from behind the crack!
After waiting for who knows how long, this white light shone from behind the crack was no different from the ray of hope for tang Li Xue.
''A light?! Finally... Finally... a way out!'' Tang Li Xue thought in excitement and threw more punches to the crack repeatedly.
She felt stinging paining from both of her fists, but she did not care and punched the crack again and again.
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
The cracks on the wall started to spread bigger and bigger...
Crack... Crack... Crack...
Finally, the wall crumbled, and Tang Li Xue crawled outside...
The sunlight was too blinding for Tang Li Xue''s eyes that just came out from the darkest ce, so she closed her eyes and took a deep breath instead.
For the first time after so long, the fresh air finally entered her lung. The sunlight which bathed her entire body felt so warm and cozy.
After a few tens of minutes, Tang Li Xue''s eyes began to get used to the dazzling sunlight, so she started to observe her current surroundings.
''Eh? Where... the hell am I?!'' Tang Li Xue agape in shock as she watched her surrounding environment in awe.
She was currently in the thick jungle!
....And it was not the usual thick jungle at all!
All the trees here were hundreds of meters tall and dozens of meters thick! The colors also differ from one another: green, red, violet, purple, yellow, and so on.
Moreover, there were many kinds of beasts that Tang Li Xue had never seen before.
Mountain-sized stone gori, a pack of rainbow-colored birds, ck-winged wyrm, and so on.
Besides that... Tang Li Xue had actually just crawled out from an egg!
''Holysh*t! What is this sense of d¨¦j¨¤ vu?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in a daze as she started to inspect her current body carefully.
Just like what she had guessed, she was in the body of a red dragon baby now!
Before Tang Li Xue could wake up from her daze, a colossal golden eagle already dived down toward her!
KKKKKEEEEEEAAAAAAKKKK~~!!!
The colossal golden eagle cried loudly as itnded in front of Tang Li Xue so swiftly!
''Wha...'' Before Tang Li Xue has any time to react, the colossal golden eagle already thrust its sharp beak toward Tang Li Xue.
PPPUUUUFFF~~!!!
''Damn... it... hurts...'' Tang Li Xue thought as the colossal golden eagle mped her body tightly with its sharp beak.
The unbearable crushing pain was spreading to her entire body.
Tang Li Xue already faced the situation where she almost died several times, but this was the first time she would die for real...
Tang Li Xue''s vision turned dark... when the colossal golden eagle tore her upper body and swallowed it whole...
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue suddenly opened her topaz blue eyes and jumped down from her bed in alert!
She looked at her surroundings full of vignt and realized that she was actually still in her own bedroom right now.
"Puuhaaaah... Cough... Cough... Cough... What an awful experience!" Tang Li Xueined as her breath turned rough, and she coughed out continuously.
The first thing Tang Li Xue did was to check how much time had passed right now.
She felt that she had already lived between a few months to one year in that dark space... err... in that egg after all.
Surprisingly, Yaya was still asleep peacefully on her bed, and it was still in the middle of the night just like before.
After a meticulous check, Tang Li Xue realized that only less than one minute had passed in reality!
"It seems I got a wrong idea about this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]''s third effect previously. I thought I would only see the memories of the Sun Dragon King like watching a 3D movie. But if it''s really like that, its effect will not say ''projecting'' but ''show'' or ''disy'' instead." Tang Li Xue murmured while in deep thought.
"This true purpose of this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]''s third effect is probably to train the new dragon descendant by using the Sun Dragon King''s memories." Tang Li Xue concluded as her topaz blue eyes shone brighter and brighter in realization.
"Imagine if I can experience what the Sun Dragon King has been through in its entire life, from its birth and survival in that strange forest until it became the true most powerful dragon king in history?! Oh My God! This third effect is priceless too! In fact, the first three effects of this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] are so priceless that it feels unreal!" Tang Li Xue said as she licked her pinkish lips in joy and excitement.
What has the current Tang Li Xuecked the most right now?
EXPERIENCE!
Tang Li Xue wasted almost all of her previous life in hospital, and she only reincarnated into this Immortal World for less than five months!
Therefore, the thing shecked the most right now was experience whether life experience, battle experience, survival experience, and so on, Tang Li Xuecked in all of them.
''Moreover, this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] still has three more unknown effects!'' Tang Li Xue thought, and her smile turned even wider.
However, Tang Li Xue also knew that the more precious this [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] was, the more people will go crazy and do anything to obtain it.
Tang Li Xue herself did not have any confidence to protect it with her current strength, and she did not know if anyone could deduce or guess that this priceless Holy-Rank divine treasure was currently in her hands just like what Instructor Mei Lan did.
''There is no point in worrying about something I cannot do... I should just need to focus on what I must do right now! Be stronger faster!'' Tang Li Xue thought as her eyes shone with firm determination to get strong.
Tang Li Xue lied down on her bed and let her consciousness entered her Dantian again. Tang Li Xue dripped her blood on the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] again just like before.
Currently, she already knew what she needs to do, so she immediately broke the egg and crawled out from it.
Tang Li Xue did not wait for the colossal golden eagle toe and run as fast as she could from where she was.
KKKKKEEEEEEAAAAAAKKKK~~!!!
But the colossal golden eagle was way faster than Tang Li Xue and caught up to her in no time.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in frustration and tried to hide on the nearby giant tree.
PPPUUUUFFF~~!!!
The giant tree and tang Li Xue split in two like tofu under the sharp talon of the colossal golden eagle, and Tang Li Xue died again.
''Again!'' Tang Li Xue entered the Sun Dragon King''s memories for the third time.
After went out of the egg, Tang Li Xue dug a hole and hid in there for a while. The colossal golden eagle did not notice her, but she still died in the giant serpent''s mouth.
The fourth time, Tang Li Xue went into the river to drink some water and got eaten by countless piranha-like fishes.
The fifth time, Tang Li Xue tried to fight the giant serpent and died miserably.
The sixth time... died...
The tenth time... died...
The fiftieth time... still died...
The sixtieth time... still got eaten by the colossal golden eagle and died...
.....
...
.
In less than one hour, Tang Li Xue already died more than sixty times!
Tang Li Xue''s eyes turned bloodshot, and her face also became pale.
She has [Regeneration] skill, so sixty drops of blood were nothing for her, but the problem was her mental exhaustion.
She did not get injured or killed for real, but the pain and the death she felt was so real.
"Fuuuuhhh... Calm down, Tang Li Xue! Think!" Tang Li Xue murmured and decided to stop for a while then thought deeply with the help of all her skill such as: [Concentration], [Focus], [Strengthen Willpower], [Sharpen Mind], [Calction], [Prediction], [Intelligence Enhancement] working at its maximum.
"I am a dragon for God''s Sake, why am I so weak?! This does not make sense at all!" Tang Li Xueined in frustration.
But when Tang Li Xue saw the current sleeping Yaya, something very important shed in her mind.
"Eh... Wait a minute... At that time, when Yaya hatched out from the egg... Didn''t she eat her own egg crust?" Tang Li Xue whispered softly as her eyes turned brighter.
Chapter 232 - 232: Huge Improvement in One Night!
Chapter 232 - 232: Huge Improvement in One Night!
Tang Li Xue dripped her blood onto the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] and entered the Sun Dragon King''s memories again.
The first thing she did after she hatched from the egg was to eat the egg crust cleanly.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had guessed before, the crust of the dragon egg contained a lot of energy inside it, and her body got a lot stronger after eating it!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue needed to use her precious time to eat the egg crust. So right after she ate it, the colossal golden eagle already dived down toward her!
''If I did not eat the egg crust, I will be too weak to survive in this dangerous jungle. But if I use my time to eat the egg crust, this huge bird will surelye to eat me. It seems I have no choice other than facing this huge bird!'' Tang Li Xue assessed her situation in an instant.
KKKKKEEEEEEAAAAAAKKKK~~!!!
When the colossal golden eagle''s sharp talon came toward her, Tang Li Xue immediately rolled to her right side to dodge it!
"GUUUUOOOOAAARRRRR~~!!!" Tang Li Xue roared while pounced onto the colossal golden eagle and bit the upper part of its talon.
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue managed to sink her sharp fangs deep into the upper part of the colossal golden eagle''s talon though she was only a baby red dragon now, but her fangs were already very sharp.
''Ooohh?! As I expected from the true dragon''s fangs! At first, I only nned to intimidate this huge bird¡ but who knows that the effect is much better than I imagined!'' Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise and decided to bite harder using all of her strength.
KKKKKEEEEEEAAAAAAKKKK~~!!!
The colossal golden eagle roared in pain and fury.
The way it angrily stared at Tang Li Xue while looking down on her coldly, as if it was trying to say: ''You tiny worm! You are only a snack for me! So how dare you bite me?!''
Then the colossal golden eagle used its sharp beak to peck at Tang Li Xue!
''UUUOOOOHHHH~~!!! That''s dangerous!'' Tang Li Xue quickly loosened her jaws and jumped to the right side to dodge the colossal golden eagle''s peck.
But the colossal golden eagle did not give up at all and rapidly pecked at Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue was forced to miserably dodge all of it¡ sometimes she rolled and sometimes she jumped.
After dodged all of the colossal golden eagle''s pecks several times, Tang Li Xue identally slipped and got swallowed whole by it.
Again¡ she died!
"Dammit!" Tang Li Xue cursed while gritted her teeth in frustration.
"Should I abandon the egg crust to survive from that huge bird? No, I am quite sure that eating the egg crust is the only way to survive." Tang Li Xue murmured and pondered deeply before shook her head to deny it.
"It''s true that I will grow stronger if I eat the egg crust, but I would not have any more time to move or hide before that huge birdes. Does it mean the Sun Dragon King really managed to win against that huge bird just after it hatched from the egg?!" Tang Li Xue said doubtfully.
After considered it for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue concluded: ''It seems there is no other way other than defeating that huge bird! Geez, forced to face such a huge and powerful boss in the first battle¡ What a shitty game is this?! Sigh...''
And so¡ Tang Li Xue entered the Sun Dragon King''s memories¡
Hatching from the egg¡
Eating the egg crust¡
Fighting fiercely against the first boss, the [Colossal Golden Eagle]¡
Then died again and again¡
Six hourster¡ The 492nd time for Tang Li Xue fought against the colossal golden eagle¡
The colossal golden eagle tried to peck Tang Li Xue again and its speed also quite fast.
Tang Li Xue only tilted her body a bit, and the colossal golden eagle''s sharp beak missed her by a few millimeters from Tang Li Xue.
When the colossal golden eagle''s sharp beak passed her, Tang Li Xue to a step forward instead and¡
PPPUUUUFFFF~~!!!
Her tiny but sharp dragon ws shed deep onto the colossal golden eagle''s eyes!
KKKKKEEEEEEAAAAAAKKKK~~!!!
The colossal golden eagle raised its head and roared in pain. The rage built up in its heart exploded, and it swore to kill this tiny worm who dared to hurt it at all costs.
After entered the world in the Sun Dragon King''s memories for so many times, Tang Li Xue already long realized that all the creatures here were quite smart but very arrogant.
She also deduced that this jungle should be somewhere in the world higher than Immortal World where she resided right now. This jungle might be even in the Divine World that her [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] always mentioned before.
However, all of those were not important right now. The most important part was Tang Li Xue''s growth after she fought the colossal golden eagle for 492 times and died for 491 times.
Her growth was too astonishing to be said¡
In her first battle, she could only desperately jump and roll around on the ground like a real worm to dodge the colossal golden eagle''s attacks.
She made so many awkward and pointless moves that were too miserable to see.
But now after trying for 492 times and died for 491 times, all of her movements were extremely smooth like the flowing water and the floating cloud.
No more awkward and pointless moves... she could even dodge while thinking and thenunching the counterattack right at her enemy''s fatal points at the same time!
Actually, Tang Li Xue should be able to do this a long time ago, but she waspletely spoiled by her system, her overpowered skills and divine abilities, Spirit Perception, high stats from her cultivation and level, [Divine Possession] with Yaya, and so on.
But in this Sun Dragon King''s memories, she could not rely on any of those and was forced to face everything by herself like now.
Who knew that it would really draw her hidden potential and stimted her growth significantly!
The colossal golden eagle lost its right eye under Tang Li Xue''s baby dragon w, but it became angrier instead of running away in fear.
The colossal golden eagle stared at the ce where Tang Li Xue has stood before with its left eye, but Tang Li Xue was no longer there.
It looked around to find Tang Li Xue''s silhouette but still failed to find her.
''Yoo¡ big buddy! Are you searching for me? Are you started to miss me? Okay, here is the gift for you!''
Tang Li Xue appeared from above the colossal golden eagle while sneered mockingly at it and¡ shed its left eye with her tiny sharp ws too!
PPPUUUUFFFF~~!!!
With this attack, Tang Li Xue finally managed to make the colossal golden eagle blind.
When Tang Li Xue shed the colossal golden eagle''s right eye before, Tang Li Xue also used her other w to hold on tightly to the colossal golden eagle''s feathers on its head.
After that, the colossal golden eagle raised its huge head to roar in pain, but actually, Tang Li Xue also followed its head movement because she held onto the feathers on its head.
Using the momentum of the colossal golden eagle''s movement, Tang Li Xue somersaulted a few times in the mid-air after she released the feathers in her grasp before finallynded gracefully on the top of the colossal golden eagle''s head.
Her skilled maneuver could even make the circus tr.a.p.eze run away in shame.
Then Tang Li Xue only need to head toward the colossal golden eagle''s left eye and shed at it like what already happened just now.
Tang Li Xue did not really know if this huge eagle has the other way to perceive its prey, but usually, the eagle only depends on its sharp eyes to detect its prey.
So with both of its eyes blinded, this huge golden eagle was basically already crippled.
Tang Li Xue used her tiny dragon ws to tear the colossal golden eagle''s flesh bit by bit and greedily ate it!
In this Sun Dragon King''s memories, Tang Li Xue was currently a red dragon baby who just hatched from the egg, so she was extremely starving right now.
''Fuhahahahaha¡ Foolish bird! Brainless bird! Idiotic bird! After dying in your hands for hundreds of times, finally¡ this is my revenge!'' Tang Li Xue thought proudly as she ate the colossal golden eagle''s meat.
KKKKKEEEEEEAAAAAAKKKK~~!!!
Who knew that this colossal golden eagle still did not give up, and it flew toward the sky with Tang Li Xue on its neck.
''Dammit! You are still so persistent! Just die and be my food already!'' Tang Li Xue cursed angrily and devoured the colossal golden eagle''s meat quicker.
The colossal golden eagle got weaker and weaker before finally losing all of its strength and dropped down from the sky!
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and held the colossal golden eagle''s feathers tightly then¡
BBBBOOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
It was clear that the colossal golden eagle was quite powerful since even its dead body did not turn into a meat patty even after dropped down from an altitude over 50,000-70,000 feet.
Tang Li Xue crawled down from the top of the colossal golden eagle. Although she was not hurt at all, but she still felt dizzy and nausea for a while.
After Tang Li Xue cleared up her dizziness, she immediately realized that she was currently surrounded by huge carnivorous nts like Venus Flytrap.
''Oh, no! Don''t tell me¡'' Before Tang Li Xue could finish her thought¡ the giant Venus Flytrap already opened its maw and swallowed Tang Li Xue whole.
Tang Li Xue died for the 492nd time¡
When Tang Li Xue opened her eyes, the warm sunlight already entered her bedroom through the gap between her windows.
Even Yaya already woke up and tried to wake her up too.
"So it''s already morning¡ Sigh¡ Let''s stop here and take a bath. Today is Instructor Lan''s ss so I don''t want to bete." Tang Li Xue murmured weakly.
She wobbled to the bathroom with Yaya to take a bath and heading out from her room to meet with Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others.
Strangely, not only Tang Li Xue who looked very haggard among them, but Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao also looked very haggard.
"What are you three doingst night? Threesome overnight? Brother Hei, how does it feel? Spicy and cold? Hehehehehe¡" Huang Haoughed jokingly at Tang Li Xue and her team.
Chapter 233 - 233: Their Own Respective Path!
Chapter 233 - 233: Their Own Respective Path!
But Huang Hao immediately shut his mouth after being stared at Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao.
The mood of Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao right now were quite bad, so they let Huang Hao off with only one kick. Usually, if their mood were good, they would not mind giving Huang Hao two or three more punches in the face so he would look like a panda.
All of them were heading to the Education Building together, and Li Jing asked them why they looked haggard like that on their way.
Of course, Tang Li Xue would never tell them that she pull an all-nighter to enter the Sun Dragon King''s memories, facing the colossal golden eagle continuously, and died for 492 times.
So Tang Li Xue only told them that Teacher Li Wei punished her because she did not attend his Inscription ss for two days and gave her tons of assignments yesterday.
While Bing Yi told everyone that she already began to attend Instructor Mei Lan''s special training from yesterday noon until this morning. In fact, she did not sleep even a wink at all. She only took a quick bath and change her tattered clothes before went out again to attend Instructor Mei Lan''s morning ss with everyone.
When everyone including Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao asked her about what kind of training she hadst night, Bing Yi''s body shuddered violently, and she refused to tell anything about it.
After looking at Bing Yi''s reaction, Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva and started to think about a safe way to refuse Instructor Mei Lan''s special trainingter.
Hei Yinghao''s story was the most interesting among them¡
"I begged Teacher Bai to teach me how to be stronger like him for the entire night! Tsk¡ If it were not for I had to attend Instructor Lan''s ss today, I would probably still stick close to Teacher Bai and keep begging at him." Hei Yinghao clicked his tongue andined in regret.
"Eh? Wha¡ What?! Begging? To Teacher Bai?!" Tang Li Xue''s sweet voice increased by a notch and asked Hei Yinghao with a dumbfounded expression.
Even Bing Yi, Li Jing, and the others were stupefied in shock and forget to close their mouth.
Although all of them wanted to ask for more detail from Hei Yinghao so badly out of curiosity, but they already arrived at the Education Building and Instructor Mei Lan already waited for them at the entrance.
When Instructor Mei Lan led them all to their ssroom, she asked Hei Yinghao: "Bingbing and Little Xue already decided to participate in my special training after today''s ss, so how about you, Little Hei?"
Hei Yinghao''s obsidian ck eyes shone brighter in excitement. ''So if I attend this special training, I can spend more time with Xue?! I want to take part too! But¡''
Hei Yinghao gritted his teeth and replied: "I am so sorry, Instructor Lan... but I have to refuse your offer this time¡"
Instructor Mei Lan raised her eyebrow in surprise and asked again: "Oh? Why?"
As their Instructor and Teacher, Instructor Mei Lan already knew all of her students'' attitudes and habits.
Usually, Hei Yinghao would never refuse something rted to Tang Li Xue. If he could have any chance to spend more of his time with Tang Li Xue even only for one or two more seconds, he would never refuse it.
Then Hei Yinghao told Instructor Mei Lan about his decision to beg Teacher Bai so Teacher Bai will teach him more about close quarterbat battle.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently at Hei Yinghao and praised him: "Hoo¡ You really make a good choice this time. That Drunkard Bai is the best fighter in close range battle. No one dares to fight against him within ten steps. Even I will be defeated by him in less than 10 moves if I try to fight him within ten steps."
"That is how he got the nickname ''Ten-Steps Demon''. But Drunkard Bai is famous for hisziness, the students that he teach personally in these ten years can be counted with one hand. So do not ever get your hopes up too high." Instructor Mei Lan kindly advised Hei Yinghao with her gentle voice.
Hei Yinghao nodded to Instructor Mei Lan and reassured her: "Do not worry, Instructor Lan! Teacher Bai already refused me for 216 times yesterday, but I kept sticking close to him and begging. He almost gives up this morning, but unfortunately, I must attend Instructor Lan''s ss this morning so¡"
"What? Wait¡ Wait a minute¡ He almost gives up? Just by sticking close and begging to him? That is impossible, right? What did you do to him other than that until he almost gives up?" Instructor Mei Lan asked with a skeptical tone.
"Yep! I follow him so closely, stick to him like glue, and follow him everywhere while keep begging at him¡ to his house, to the restaurant, to the liquor store, everywhere! Even to the toilet¡" Hei Yinghao told his story and raised his head proudly.
Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and the others halted their step and turned around after they heard Hei Yinghao''s story and stared at him weirdly as if they were staring at a maniac.
Even Tang Li Xue started to get afraid of Hei Yinghao¡
''I admit that he is very tenacious, but if he used his tenacity for something like stalking people¡'' Tang Li Xue thought as she started to feel pity toward Teacher Bai.
Not long after that, they entered their ssroom and Instructor Mei Lan began her lesson about their specialty as Inspector.
''Covering their own track'' and ''detecting their enemies track'' was a must to have skills, so Instructor Mei Lan started to teach them meticulously.
Before dismissing her ss, Instructor Mei Lan even gave them some thick books about precious herbs, rare metals, treasures, and so on then instructed them to memorize it all in one week or they will receive a severe penalty.
After Instructor Mei Lan dismissed her ss, Li Jing and her team went back to Residential Building to eat their lunch and took some missions in the mission hall like usual.
Hei Yinghao''s figure already vanished after Instructor Mei Lan''s ss was over. It was clear that he went to stalk Teacher Bai closely again while kept begging Teacher Bai to teach him.
"Oh, I almost forget to ask you about it. So¡ about your little friend''s teacher, are you already decided which one you will choose? I mean what kind of teacher your little friend want? We can ask around today before we begin our special training." Instructor Mei Lan turned around and asked Tang Li Xue.
"Ah! I also almost forget about it!" Tang Li Xue widened her eyes and patted her forehead.
Tang Li Xue tried to ask Yaya who still sat sleepily on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
Yaya''s answer was simple: ''I want the stronger teacher!''
"Instructor Lan, she wants the strongest wind-elemental teacher to teach her. Is there someone you can rmend?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan curiously.
"The strongest wind-elemental teacher, huh¡ There is¡ but¡ it will be quite troublesome." Instructor Mei Lan murmured softly while frowned deeply.
"That person does not like the crowd, so I can only bring your little friend and ask. How about this¡ I will bring you two to my courtyard and arrange your training set first before I bring your little friend to ask. But do not expect too much, that person already retired. I can only try to ask if that person can asionally teach your little friend." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi.
"That¡ person? Who is that person?" Tang Li Xue asked curiously.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at Tang Li Xue and yfully flicked her forehead before replied: "That''s a secret!"
Instructor Mei Lan brought Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi to her courtyard and gave each of them a pair of bracelets.
Bing Yi already began her special training yesterday so she already knew what these bracelets were. She wore it silently on her wrist without asked anything.
But Tang Li Xue saw these bracelets for the first time so she asked Instructor Mei Lan with a tone full of curiosity: "Instructor Lan, what is the function of these bracelets? Don''t tell me these bracelets can be heavy and we must wear these heavy bracelets while running around the courtyard?!"
''Anyone who heard about the special training and looked at these pair of bracelets would probably think about the same thing too, right?!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she examined the bracelet carefully.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at Tang Li Xue''s remark and asked back: "Of course not! Are you nning to train your body that way and be a burly woman?"
Tang Li Xue recalled the h*lk-like red-haired woman after she transformed¡ Her unsightly muscles and ugly orc-like face made Tang Li Xue instantly shuddered in fear, and she shook her head furiously.
"This bracelet''s function is to measure the elementalpression you make. Look at this!" Instructor Mei Lan said as she wore a pair of bracelets and used her divine ability to leisurely form a vibration de.
Weeeng~~!!!
The number ''566'' appeared on the top of the bracelet''s surface.
"This ''566'' is my elementalpression''s score when I condense this vibration de. Your objective for today is to reach the ''100'' score." Instructor Mei Lan instructed Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi.
Chapter 234 - 234: Yayas Teacher!
Chapter 234 - 234: Yaya''s Teacher!
Chapter 234: Yaya''s Teacher!
Tang Li Xue wore a pair of bracelets on both of her wrists and activated her [Energy Maniption] to create a jade-like white spear.
Tang Li Xue took a peek at the number appeared on the surface of her bracelets...''27''
''Whaaat?! 27?! Only 27!'' Tang Li Xue frowned and puckered her lips in dejection.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at Tang Li Xue''s disappointed expression and said: "Try to use your spear to attack Bingbing''s ice sword."
Bing Yi also already created an ice sword with her divine abilities such as [Freezing Field] and [Corrosive Frost].
Bing Yi''s ice sword was also rated higher than Tang Li Xue''s white spear by her pair of bracelets. The number ''56'' appeared on Bing Yi''s bracelet.
Tang Li Xue nodded to Bing Yi and followed what Instructor Mei Lan told her to do. Tang Li Xue controlled her white spear and made it flew toward Bing Yi''s ice sword.
The scene was no different than throwing an egg to the boulder, Tang Li Xue''s white spear split in two by Bing Yi''s ice sword without any resistance.
Tang Li Xue dumbfounded watching at how easily her white spear got split in two by Bing Yi''s ice sword.
"Like what you have seen, the number on that bracelet shows how much high yourpression rate is. The higher the number on the bracelet means the thing you condensed from your divine abilities is more powerful too." Instructor Mei Lan exined patiently with her gentle tone.
Bing Yi patted Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and tried tofort her: "Cheer up, Little Xue! My elementalpression rate is only at ''24'' yesterday. With more training, I am sure we can reach ''100'' today!"
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled at them and gave them a few more pointers before she brought Yaya with her to meet with Yaya''s future teacher.
At first, the stubborn Yaya did not want to get separated from Tang Li Xue.
But after Tang Li Xue persuaded her a few times, Yaya finally yielded and decided to follow what Tang Li Xue has told her to do.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in satisfaction. Compared to when Yaya still in the [Umon] Grade, the current [Rare] grade Yaya was already a lot more matured.
She always followed Tang Li Xue quietly without making any fuss now, and she also became a lot more obedient than before because she started to understand that what Tang Li Xue did was for her own good.
Tang Li Xue followed Instructor Mei Lan''s pointer and condensed two white swords with her [Energy Maniption] then began to merge it into one sword.
Bing Yi could not do this since the things she condensed were made from her ice-elemental divine abilities, but Tang Li Xue condensed her things from her own pure energy! So something likes merging andpressing several identical creations into one should be far easier than what Bing Yi has done.
''Sess!'' Tang Li Xue smiled full of excitement after she managed to merge two white swords into one.
Tang Li Xue stared at the number on her bracelet surface... ''54''
''Thepression rate doubled from before?! I see... So if I merged three swords, doesn''t it mean the number will be tripled? Let''s try it!'' Tang Li Xue deduced as her topaz blue eyes shone brighter in realization.
Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips and condensed one more white sword with her [Energy Maniption] divine ability then she tried to merge that white sword with the previous merged white sword.
However, the energy immediately went berserk when Tang Li Xue merged the third sword into the previous sword. It was as if she was trying to insert two bottles amount of water into one bottle.
BAAAAANGGGG~~!!!
Both white swords exploded into the white fog the moment it merged into one...
''Sigh... I guess it will not be that easy, huh... Again!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and tried to do it again but more meticulous and careful this time.
.....
...
.
Instructor Mei Lan brought Yaya out from the Education Building and took out a transport disc from her space pouch.
Both of them rode the transport disc and went toward the south area of Myriad Foxes Academy.
Although the transport disc moved very fast, it still took them half an hour to reach the ce they were headed to.
When Yaya and Instructor Mei Lan got off from the transport disc, they already arrived at the front gate of a luxurious vi.
"Let''s go, Little One! Make sure to follow me closely, or you will get lost." Instructor Mei Lan chuckled softly and warned Yaya.
Yaya put solemn expression and nodded back to Instructor Mei Lan. She even flew toward Instructor Mei Lan and sat on her left shoulder.
Instructor Mei Lanughed at what Yaya did because Tang Li Xue also did the same thing in the first entrance trial before.
Instructor Mei Lan took out her white jade badge and pointed it at the majestic front gate.
KREEEEKKK~~!!!
Surprisingly, the majestic front gate opened by itself after that...
Instructor Mei Lan leisurely entered the luxurious vi''s courtyard as if she was taking a stroll in her own courtyard.
They met with several maids or servants with fox ears and furry tail on their way to enter the vi, but all of them did not stop Instructor Mei Lan and only bowed respectfully at her.
If Tang Li Xue or anyone saw this scene, they would surely think that this luxurious vi really belongs to Instructor Mei Lan.
When Instructor Mei Lan and Bing Yi entered the vi, a handsome head butler bowed politely and greeted them: "Wee home, Young Miss Lan. Madam is drinking tea alone in the garden right now. Do you like to meet her?"
"Yes, bring me to her." Instructor Mei Lan said while nodded to the head butler with a gentle smile on her face.
Yaya stared at Instructor Mei Lan and the head butler back and forth in confusion.
There were many things Yaya wanted to ask but did not know where she should start, so she decided to keep silent instead. She could not say anything other than ''yayaya~~'' anyway...
"It''s my pleasure to do so." The head butler bowed politely at Instructor Mei Lan again and escorted them into the open garden inside the vi.
In the middle of the heavenly-like beautiful garden, there was a beautifuldy who sat on the chair.
She wore a long apricot-colored dress. Her tall and voluptuous body was oozing out irresistible maturity and gentleness, which could make any male yearn for her.
Her beauty almost transcendence any fairy, and her soothing aura gave a serene and peaceful feeling to anyone who near her.
She leisurely took the teacup on the tea table and carefully sniffed it to enjoy the tea fragrance aroma before sipped it slowly to enjoy its taste.
Each of her movements was a true portrait of elegance and tenderness.
But the most noticeable trait of this maturedy was her 60% - 70% resemnce with Instructor Mei Lan''s appearance.
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression softened when she saw this maturedy, and she impatiently ran toward this maturedy''s direction.
"Eh, Lan''er?" A beautiful and charming smile bloomed on the maturedy''s stunning face.
"Mom!" Instructor Mei Lan called the maturedy while excitedly hugged her.
Yaya who sat at Instructor Mei Lan''s shoulder: ''?!''
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue who got the shocking message from her mind connection with Yaya: ''Whuuuaaattt?! Mo¡ Mooommm?!''
BBBAAAAAAANNGG~~!!!
The two swords she merged into one exploded right on Tang Li Xue''s face when she lost her concentration because of that shocking news.
"Cough¡ Cough¡ Cough¡" Tang Li Xue caught unprepared and coughed violently.
Fortunately, her fox mask withstood most of the impact from the explosion, so she did not look so messy and dirty.
¡..
¡
.
Yes, the maturedy''s name was Mei Qingzhu. She was Councillor Junjie''s wife and Instructor Mei Lan''s mother.
After joking around for a few moments and filled this lonely beautiful garden with their bell-like cute giggles, Mei Qingzhu gave Instructor Mei Lan a cup of tea, and Instructor Mei Lan started to tell Mei Qingzhu the main reason for her toe here.
"So you want me to teach this Little Friend? Lan''er, you know that I already retired, right?" Mei Qingzhu frowned a bit, but she immediately smiled brightly again when she saw the cute Yaya staring at her.
Mei Qingzhu even took Yaya from Instructor Mei Lan''s shoulder and embraced Yaya in her bountiful b.r.e.a.s.t.
"I know mom¡ but this Little One needs a teacher with wind-elemental divine abilities and the strongest one at that. She is the descendent of the top-ranked wind-elemental spirit, so it would be a pity if someone ipetent teaches her. Mom¡ pleeeeeaase!" Instructor Mei Lan said with a pitiful tone.
Instructor Mei Lan already started to execute her ''cute begging'' tactic. She never showed this to anyone, not even her father, only to her mother. And it would increase her sess rate by 50%!
As for the other 50%... Her mom seems alreadypletely fell for Yaya''s cuteness so Instructor Mei Lan was very sure that¡
"Geez¡ Only this once, okay?! And remember to not tell your father about this! He is a jealous fox, so~¡ you know, right?" Mei Qingzhu warned Instructor Mei Lan and giggled when Yaya tried to act cute to her just so she will not refuse to teach Yaya.
''See?! It is 100% sess!'' Instructor Mei Lan grasped her fist in rejoice.
Chapter 235 - 235: Tenacious and Persistent!
Chapter 235 - 235: Tenacious and Persistent!
Mei Qingzhu chatted with Instructor Mei Lan for a few hours before she told Instructor Mei Lan to leave Yaya for a few days here so she could teach Yaya some basics about wind-elemental first.
Usually, Yaya''s parents as the wind-elemental spirit should be the ones who taught her, but Tang Li Xue already took Yaya from her parents since she hatched out from the egg.
Tang Li Xue also did not know anything about wind-elemental even now, so how could she teach Yaya about it.
These basics were more about general knowledge, but it was very important and a must to learn before Mei Qingzhu could teach anything more profound to Yaya.
One of the examples was a wind de could never be able to cut the firewall, but the vacuum de could!
Everyone knew that wind-elemental weakness was fire-elemental, but what if the wind-elemental user created a vacuum room without any air and confined the fire-elemental inside it? Even any fire-elemental users would be powerless inside it.
But of course, every elemental user has its own ace in the hole.
If wind-elemental users have the power to create a vacuum, then the fire-elemental users have the power of thermal radiation which could bypass any medium such as air or liquid.
All of these were the parts of the basics, and it would easily change the tides of the battle if any elemental user could use it carefully to raise their advantage.
At first, Yaya wanted to refuse it so badly and almost wanted to throw a big tantrum, but Tang Li Xue quicklyforted her with their connection in their mind.
Yaya finally calmed down after a few minutes, but she still pouted in dissatisfaction.
But Yaya''s attitude immediately changed 180 degrees after Mei Qingzhu took out so many nutritious snacks for Yaya to eat.
All of them looked very expensive and precious, such as Wind-Affinity Fruit, 3,000 years old Wind-Elemental Ginseng, and so on.
Yaya''s emerald green eyes instantly turned even greener. She hugged Mei Qingzhu affectionately and rained her with kisses.
Mei Qingzhu giggled at the cute Yaya, and she even started to feed Yaya carefully as if Yaya was her own child instead of Instructor Mei Lan.
The forgotten Instructor Mei Lan''s mouth twitched violently: "....."
The forgotten Tang Li Xue did not know whether tough or cry: "....."
When Instructor Mei Lan found that her mother has liked Yaya so much, she immediately bid her farewell and heading back to her courtyard behind the Education Building.
.....
...
.
While Instructor Mei Lan was heading back, someone unexpected came to Instructor Mei Lan''s courtyard and shouted impolitely from outside.
"OOOIIIIII~~!!! CRAZY DEMON!"
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi stopped their training and frowned deeply in annoyance when they heard that disturbing loud shout with a hoarse male voice.
"Who is that?" Tang Li Xue asked Bing Yi.
Bing Yi shook her head and replied: "Maybe some hooligans are looking for trouble... Let''s go and check it together!"
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi were heading together to the front gate, but that impolite guy already kept knocking on the gate loudly.
"Stop! Stop it! Why are you..." Bing Yi screamed in anger and wanted to curse loudly at the impatient person when she opened the gate, but her words stuck in her throat after she saw who knocked on the gate.
Even Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise and subconsciously called: "Teacher Bai?!"
Yes, this drunkard with messy looks was so eye-catching that even Bing Yi and Tang Li Xue would never forget his appearance after looked at him once.
Teacher Bai Wuchen waved his hand while saying in a tone full or annoyance: "Forget all of those boring greetings and bring your crazy Instructor here quickly! I am really going insane for real if this little brat keeps sticking to me for any longer!"
Teacher Bai Wuchen pointed his index finger downward...
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi eyes followed Teacher Bai Wuchen''s finger then they saw the battered Hei Yinghao held onto Teacher Bai Wuchen''s thigh tightly.
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi did not know anymore whether they should pity Hei Yinghao as one of their teammates orugh at Hei Yinghao''s stubbornness.
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi also knew that Teacher Bai Wuchen already used any means at his disposal to rejected and shooed Hei Yinghao away but failed.
Teacher Bai Wuchen should even already beat Hei Yinghao to half-dead, but Hei Yinghao still refused to give up and clinging to him tightly.
Even Teacher Bai Wuchen''s usual drunk state and slurred manner of talking were no longer to be seen today because his patience to face Hei Yinghao was already running out.
"Err¡ Is that guy alright? He seems cked out already, right?" Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva and asked curiously.
Tang Li Xue wanted to approach and check Hei Yinghao''s condition, but she was afraid that Hei Yinghao would cling tightly onto her thigh instead.
"I don''t know! And I don''t care either! I want you to take this persistent leech back! Right away! Right now! This instant!" Teacher Bai Wuchen shouted while gnashed his teeth in rage.
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi looked at each other, but both of them did not move at all. It was clear both of them were afraid if this Silly Fox would cling tightly onto them.
Bing Yi cleared her throat and replied politely: "Teacher Bai, Instructor Mei Lan is not at home today. Can you¡e back here tomorrow, please? Don''t worry, we will notify Instructor Mei Lan about this after shees backter."
"WHAAAAATTT?! Not home?! Tomorrow?! No way! Impossible! I will die in anger if I wait until tomorrow! I don''t care where she is! Tell her to bring her pest-like student way from me right now!" Teacher Bai Wuchen staggered a bit, but he quickly shouted back at Bing Yi with a forceful tone.
"Teacher Bai, he only wants to be your student and learn from you. Why do you need to make it hard for him? Just teach him some of your knowledge or skill to him." Tang Li Xue felt a bit sorry for Hei Yinghao, so she tried to persuade Teacher Bai Wuchen.
Tang Li Xue was in a very good mood right now since Yaya managed to find such a generous and great teacher today, so she tried to help Hei Yinghao too.
Teacher Bai Wuchen clicked his tongue and exined: "Do you think that is so easy? He is not bad¡ Very tenacious and persistent! Unfortunately, he is less talented than you in [Spirit Perception]. I rather teach a talented student like you than¡ wait¡ wait a minute¡"
A sh of inspiration entered Teacher Bai Wuchen''s mind as his gloomy expression brightened a lot.
The gloomy and angry Teacher Bai Wuchen smiled brightly at Tang Li Xue and patted her shoulder gently.
But in Tang Li Xue''s vision, Teacher Bai Wuchen''s smile looked perverse and crafty. She immediately took a few steps backward and threatened: "Teacher Bai, that''s s.e.x.u.a.l harassment. I will shout out loud if you dare to touch me again."
Teacher Bai Wuchen''s expression darkened again when he heard Tang Li Xue''s threat: ''Why there are no sane students in that Crazy Demon''s ss?!''
Teacher Bai Wuchen forced himself to smile again and exined with his softest tone: "Little girl, this guy may have a stronger spirit than you, but you definitely have more talent in the [Spirit Perception] than him!"
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter, and her heart started to brim with pride after she heard Teacher Bai Wuchen''s words. She bashfully asked back: "Really?"
Bing Yi already felt something was not right, but she still did not know the reason for it. So she could only stare at Teacher Bai Wuchen skeptically without saying anything.
"It''s true! I dare to swear on it by my name!" Teacher Bai Wuchen raised his three fingers toward the sky.
"Uwehehehe¡ So I am really that great?" Tang Li Xue giggled with a shy expression while touching her own cheeks.
"Of course! You are that great! So, what if I teach you along with this guy? But if this guy still does not get it, you can teach him in my ce! How about it?" Teacher Bai Wuchen told Tang Li Xue after praised her.
"What?! I will teach him in your ce?! No, No, No, No! I am too busy for that!" Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock and immediately rejected it.
In order to attend Instructor Mei Lan''s special training, her perfect copy told Teacher Li Wei to change the ce from the ssroom to Teacher Li Wei''s courtyard, which only a few blocks away from here.
But now this Teacher Bai Wuchen also wanted her to attend his training or ss too?!
''Doesn''t it mean I must split myself into three to attend three different lessons?! No way! It''s already exhausting enough to learn 2 different things at once, let alone three! And¡ it''s not like I really can split myself into three¡'' Tang Li Xue pondered in her mind.
In fact, Tang Li Xue was quite tempted to learn more about [Spirit Perception], since it clearly could make her a lot stronger too, if she managed to master it. But she also afraid that she bite more than she can chew and get choked by it in the end.
"Little Girl, it would be a big shame if your talent in [Spirit Perception] got wasted! [Elemental Compression] is good, but it''s not quite suitable for you. [Elemental Compression] is more suitable for a mid to long-range fighter like that cold girl over there, but it''s not really useful for the close-range fighter! Which opponent is stupid enough to wait until you finish your [Elemental Compression] before attacking you?" Teacher Bai Wuchen kept pressing Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue nodded as she thought that what Teacher Bai Wuchen said made sense, but Tang Li Xue aimed to be an all-rounder fighter, and she needs this [Elemental Compression] to further improve her [Energy Maniption] so she couldbine it with her [Sun Dragon w] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] along with Yaya''s wind-elementalpression into one super OP skill in [War Goddess Mode]ter.
After some fierce discussions between Teacher Bai Wuchen and Tang Li Xue, both of them finally decided that Tang Li Xue would attend Teacher Bai Wuchen''s lesson 5 days a week while the rest 2 days, Tang Li Xue will use it to attend Instructor Mei Lan''s special training.
The almost dying Hei Yinghao immediately revived and became very excited when Teacher Bai Wuchen said he would teach Hei Yinghao along with Tang Li Xue.
The three of them were happy with the result, but Bing Yi still felt that Tang Li Xue fell into Teacher Bai Wuchen''s scheme.
Bing Yi''s guess did not wrong at all, and Tang Li Xue only found it outter when she was attending Teacher Bai Wuchen''s ss that he taught her about [Spirit Perception] while she must teach it to Hei Yinghao again and again until hepletely understood about it.
Hei Yinghao was not as silly as he looks, but something about spirit or soul was not something that could be understood with only exnation with the mouth.
In fact, Tang Li Xue could only understand it because she spent some Deity Coins to understand it.
Moreover, Instructor Mei Lan enraged when she heard what happened and raised Tang Li Xue''s training difficulty by several levels. Tang Li Xue also mustplete her training first before she could go home.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to cry so badly when she was almost torn by these three strict teachers'' lessons!
Fortunately, the result of that ss, training, and lesson was not in vain at all since it made her grow faster than anyone else!
Added her training in Sun Dragon King''s memories every night into the equation, Tang Li Xue''s growth every day could only be described as leaps and bounds!
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi also steadily grew stronger under the tutge of Teacher Bai Wuchen and Instructor Mei Lan!
Unknowingly, two weeks had already passed, and their trial to upgrade their bronze badge into the silver badge has arrived!
Chapter 236 - 236: Preparation for the Silver-Rank Trial!
Chapter 236 - 236: Preparation for the Silver-Rank Trial!
When the skies turned dark, in the middle of midnight...
Tang Li Xue finallypleted Instructor Mei Lan''s special training for today, and Instructor Mei Lan let her go back home, but she also reminded Tang Li Xue toe early in the morning to the mission hall for attending the Silver-Rank Trial.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head to Instructor Mei Lan before dragged her exhausted body back toward the Residential Building.
Yaya already finished her lesson earlier than Tang Li Xue today, and she followed Tang Li Xue back to the Residential Building too.
The exhausted Yaya immediately went to sleep in the bedroom after she took a quick bath with Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue could not do the same because she must prepare herself for tomorrow''s Silver-Rank Trial properly first.
If Tang Li Xue managed to upgrade her bronze badge to the silver badge, she could gain the qualification to go out from Myriad Foxes Academy andpleted some high-grade missions with Instructor Mei Lan!
Not only she could gain more experience, but she could also get more precious resources to increase her level, cultivation, Martial Soul, Phoenix of Pride''s level, and Yaya''s level.
Tang Li Xue sat on top of her bed and took a deep breath to clear her mind before she opened her status window in her system to check it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Her Martial Soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent] still stayed at level 1 until now because she focused all of her EXP she got to increase her cultivation level.
Actually, she could use several mid-tier spirit stones in her space pouch to reach Acupuncture Opening Stage right now, but the human cultivation aura she emitted when she tried to breakthrough will surely draw so much unwanted attention!
So Tang Li Xue decided to postpone it for now and upgrade her badge first. She could try to break through and reach the Acupuncture Opening Stage in the human worldter when she went out with Instructor Mei Lan toplete a mission.
''The stats I get from my cultivation are very high... but why I feel like the effect it brings to me is not as good as the stats I get from my level?''
''Come to think of it... I already have 2,400 at every stats when I am only at Qi Condensation Stage. Doesn''t it mean I will have several tens of thousands at every stats in the Core Formation Stageter?''
''If the Core Formation Stage is really that OP, then why an expert at the peak Core Formation Stage like the fatty uncle from Asura Demon Sect could only fight toe to toe with the High level [Rare] grade demonic beast like Fake Dragon?''
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead in bewilderment with her slender fingers, but she could not find the reason even after thinking about it for tens of minutes.
''There are only two reasons that I can think of now. First, all of these stats numbers from cultivation are false, and the system showed these numbers from a different scale or perspective from the stats numbers of my level.''
''The second reason is there should be a special way to use these stats, and I cannot utilize these stats numbers from cultivation to its fullest. The special way that I do not know or learn yet... for example... Martial Arts!''
Tang Li Xue squinted her eyes in deep thought, but she immediately shook her head and decided to forget it for now.
It was impossible for her to learn a martial art in one night anyway even if she used herst [Premium Cultivation Voucher] right now, and there was no way she would dare to use any human martial art in front of the eyes of the examiner.
Tang Li Xue smiled brighter when she saw her hard work to learn about [Spirit Perception] from Teacher Bai Wuchen finally paid off, and the [Spirit Perception] appeared as one of her divine abilities in her status window right now.
But there was also a new problem cropped from this...
[(Five Senses Enhancement) and (Spirit Perception) divine abilities can bebined into Divine Ability [Extrasensory Perception] with costs 100 Skill Points. Do you want tobine it now?]
''Sigh... So [Five Senses Enhancement] and [Spirit Perception] can bebined into one... But I just mastered this [Spirit Perception] and many of its functions! If Ibine it into one, doesn''t it mean I will not have [Spirit Perception] anymore?! Haaaiiihhhh... Such a difficult choice! What should I do now?'' Tang Li Xue pursed her lips in annoyance.
''Also, 100 Skill Points are not cheap! It''s extremely expensive, okay?! It''s about half of my total Skill Points I have been saving until now! And here I want to save it until it reached 300 and used it tobine my three innate divine abilities, [Innate: Strength], [Innate: Agility], [Innate: Toughness] into one! Haih... another difficult choice!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she pped her forehead in frustration.
There were also many of her skills which already reached the Mastered level, but Tang Li Xue still did not dare to spend her Skill Points carelessly.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and thought: ''I should just upgrade a few skills that I need the most in the critical situation. As for that [Extrasensory Perception]... oh well, I hope this divine ability really worth more than my 100 Skill Points, or I would probably die from frustration!''
''YES!''
[You have gained divine ability (Extrasensory Perception)]
The moment Tang Li Xue finishedbining the [Five Senses Enhancement] and [Spirit Perception] into one be the [Extrasensory Perception], she felt as if the canal was created between the five rivers and the spring.
The feeling was indescribable. Even if she closed her eyes, Tang Li Xue could still see everything around her so clearly.
Even though she did not drink the cold tea on the table, she could already know its taste as if she already drank it.
''Woooaaahhh... This is super incredible!'' Tang Li Xue dumbfounded in astonishment, and she quickly checked the [Extrasensory Perception]''s description in her status window.
[Extrasensory Perception]: Itbines the enhanced five senses and the precise Spirit Perception into one, and allows for the recognition of things that couldn''t be felt before.
''So, doesn''t it means I can still use my [Spirit Perception], but it bes more urate because it alreadybined with my five enhanced senses?! What an OP divine ability!'' Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva to calm herself down.
''All right... Let''s continue!'' Tang Li Xue chose some of her Mastered level skills to upgrade it further.
[EXP Augmentation skill already reached Mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to EXP Amplification with costs 50 Skill Points?]
''Haih... Another expensive skill! But [EXP Augmentation] is already extremely useful and [EXP Amplification] sounds more wonderful than [EXP Augmentation]... Alright! Here goes nothing! YES!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and chose ''Yes''.
[EXP Augmentation upgraded to EXP Amplification Ability!]
Tang Li Xue nervously opened the [EXP Amplification]''s window to check the percentage of EXP distribution.
[EXP Amplification Status:]
[Level: 200 %]
[Cultivation: 100%]
[Martial Soul: -]
Tang Li Xue: ''?!''
Tang Li Xue''s smile grew wider after she saw the [EXP Amplification]''s status window and turned into stiflingughter in a few minutes. She would alreadyugh out loud if Yaya did not sleep beside her now.
''Next!'' Tang Li Xue happily pressed the next mastered level skill that she wanted to upgrade.
[Regeneration skill already reached the Mastered level. Do you want to upgrade it to High-Speed Regeneration with 15 Skill Points?]
''15 Skill Points are quite expensive too, but this is one of my life-saving skills that already saved my life so many times. YES!'' Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to upgrade this one at all.
[Regeneration Ability upgraded to High-Speed Regeneration Ability!]
Tang Li Xue opened the description of [High-Speed Regeneration] from her skill window and read it to check its improvement.
[High-Speed Regeneration]: Recover 1% of the user''s maximum HP every 2 seconds.
The amount it recovered did not change at all and still at 1% of maximum HP, but the ''every 5 seconds'' part decreased again to ''every 2 seconds'' right now!
It means that this [High-Speed Regeneration] skill would heal all of Tang Li Xue''s wounds 2.5 times faster than before!
''This is great! But... Sigh... I only have 40 total Skill Points left!'' Tang Li Xuemented the Skill Points she already used and almost cried out loud because of it.
There were still [High Jump], [Night Vision], and [Climb], which already reached Mastered Level too, but Tang Li Xue did not have any n to waste her remaining Skill Points to upgrade those skills.
She could use her [Energy Maniption] to create a footing such as a flying sword or a transport disc and fly, so she did not have any reason to jump or climb around anymore.
[Night Vision] skill was already good enough to see in the dark ce too, so Tang Li Xue did not have any reason to upgrade it further.
Tang Li Xue took out the glutton egg from her system inventory to examine its condition closely, but just like usual, there was no reaction from the glutton egg at all as if it was a dead egg, but the ck runes on its surface became more and more abstruse and clearer.
Tang Li Xue did not dare to look at the glutton egg for too long. Just one look at the ck runes on the glutton egg''s surface was enough to make Tang Li Xue felt dizzy and nauseous.
Tang Li Xue could feel the glutton egg''s current condition clearly from their mental connection.
Currently, the glutton egg was in deep hibernation after it consumed so many priceless nutritious things in the Auction House before.
Tang Li Xue also kept pouring much of her blood onto the glutton egg to strengthen their mental connection once every few days.
''I can feel it from our connection that this glutton egg is ready to hatch. Perhaps in only a few days... But I really hope it will not do something stupid like hatching in front of the examiner or in the trial ce!'' Tang Li Xue frowned deeply.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this stupid glutton egg would do it to mess with her.
''Should I leave this egg alone in this room? No! Who knows what kind of cmity this egg will doter without my supervision?!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and threw the glutton egg back into her system inventory.
Tang Li Xue started to put her free Stat Points to her Spirit stat. She already did this daily every day and managed to increase her Spirit stat to 720 in two weeks.
Tang Li Xue immediately stopped when she felt the pain in her mind became too unbearable, and she almost passed out because of it.
Her Spirit stat increased from 720 to 780 today, while her free Stat Points decreased from 234 to 174.
After did everything she could to strengthen herself, Tang Li Xue decided to open Yaya''s status window to check Yaya''s growth after she received daily private lessons with Instructor Mei Lan''s mom.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[True Name: Yaya] >
[Species: Tempest Fairy Princess]
[Grade: Rare (Childhood)]
[Type: Wind Elemental Spirit (Elf-Type)]
[Level 7]
Divine Ability: [Wind God''s Endowment], [Extreme Speed], [Wind God''s Eyes], [Shockwave Impact]
[HP: 24,300/24,300]
Strength: 1170
Agility: 1850
Toughness: 900
[Skill: Fast Flight (Lv3), Compressed Wind de (Lv1), Cyclone Storm (Lv1), Breezing Step (Lv 1), High-Pressure Air Bullet (Lv3), Hurricane Barrier (Lv1), Tempest Prison (Lv1), Multiple Wind Clones (Lv 1), Compressed Wind Sword (Lv1), Vacuum sh (Lv1), Whirlwind Vacuum Wave (Lv1)]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yaya''s level had increased from level 2 to level 7 in only 2 weeks thanks to all the nutritious snacks that Instructor Mei Lan''s mom gave to Yaya every day!
Tang Li Xue was really astonished when she saw that almost all of Yaya''s skills had been upgraded under Instructor Mei Lan''s mom tutge.
The vast difference between the Elemental Spirit and Demonic Beast could clearly be seen right now.
Even though Tang Li Xue has her system to assist her growth, but it was pale inparison to Yaya''s growth!
Of course, the nutritious snacks and Instructor Mei Lan''s mom also held a big role in Yaya''s growth, but Elemental Spirit already fated to be a prodigy the moment it was born.
''Tsk, Tsk, Tsk... She even got a new divine ability! This [Wind God''s Endowment] is really too godly!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in amazement and checked Yaya''s new divine ability in curiosity.
[Shockwave Impact]: The power to create or control the sharp change of pressure caused by the wind, air, explosion, or sound.
''This divine ability... is really vague and hard to understand?! Oh well, I can see it sooner orter when Yaya uses it in battleter.'' Tang Li Xue smiled happily and patted the sleeping Yaya''s head gently.
''All right! Now I only have one more thing to do...'' Tang Li Xue cleared her throat in nervousness and took out a jade box from her space pouch.
Tang Li Xue dispelled the lock inscription on the jade box and slowly opened it.
There were three crystal balls that sat inside the jade box.
These three crystal balls were the high-level [Rare] grade beast cores!
Of course, Tang Li Xue already had enough credits to buy these three high-level [Rare] grade beast cores before, but she did not do it!
The reason was simple. It was because she nned to use the best quality of high-level [Rare] grade beast cores to awaken her [Regalia of Eclipse] 1st power!
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not dare toe into the Auction House again, so she decided to ask for Teacher Li Wei''s help to buy it.
Teacher Li Wei even gave her a huge discount and only asked for 500,000 credits for these three highest quality high-level [Rare] grade beast cores.
''Bullsh*t!!! 500,000 credits for these three high-level [Rare] grade beast cores?! He is clearly extorting me, alright?!'' Tang Li Xue cursed Teacher Li Wei in her heart.
Chapter 237 - 237: Silver-Rank Trial Mission! Start!
Chapter 237 - 237: Silver-Rank Trial Mission! Start!
Tang Li Xue actually wronged Teacher Li Wei in this matter.
There was a huge difference between the normal quality and the best quality of high-level [Rare] grade beast core!
The normal quality was quite easy to find, but the best quality of high-level [Rare] grade beast core means that [Rare] grade demonic beast was only a half-step away from the Spirit Beast rank!
That was the reason why the price of the best quality high-level [Rare] grade beast core has far more expensive than the normal quality. Its price should be even higher than 300,000 credits, so three of those best quality high-level [Rare] grade beast cores should be priced at 1,000,000 credits or more!
500,000 credits for three best quality high-level [Rare] grade beast cores were definitely super cheap!
In fact, the person who sold these three best quality high-level [Rare] grade beast cores to Teacher Li Wei took quite a loss, but they dly did so just to maintain a good connection with renowned Master Inscriptionist like Teacher Li Wei.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath before she held one of the high-level [Rare] grade beast cores with both of her palms and touched it on her pink lips.
All of the high-level [Rare] grade beast cores were far bigger than her own fist, so Tang Li Xue could not just swallow it like a pill. She could only devour the vitality energy inside it slowly.
The pure vitality energy from the high-level [Rare] grade beast core on her lips began to enter into Tang Li Xue''s mouth.
The high-level [Rare] grade beast core in her grasp started to shrink bit by bit when Tang Li Xue devoured the vitality energy contained within it.
Tang Li Xue frowned a bit and started to get anxious when she realized that there was no notification from her system.
Usually, the moment Tang Li Xue ate or swallowed something, her system gave some notifications about [EXP Gained!], but today was the only exception.
She could feel that the massive amount of vitality energy kept entering her body, but all of those did not turn into EXP, yet it was flowing into the space between her eyebrows instead.
The high-level [Rare] grade beast core in Tang Li Xue''s hand kept shrinking, and after half an hour, the size was only as big as a marble. It only took five more minutes for Tang Li Xue to finished devouring it all without leaving anything behind.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ding!
[Chain Side-Quest (I): The Quest for Power]
[Quest: Consume 3 Human''s High-Rank Golden Cores/ High-level [Rare] grade beast cores (1/3)]
[Reward: Regalia of Eclipse 1st Power!]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she read the notification from her system after she finished devouring one of the high-level [Rare] grade beast cores.
The most noticeable change was (0/3) changed into (1/3).
''It works! Yosh... Let''s do this!'' Tang Li Xue smiled brighter and took another high-level [Rare] grade beast core then began to devour it again.
It took more than an hour for Tang Li Xue to devour all the three best quality of high-level [Rare] grade beast cores.
Ding!
[Quest: Chain Side-Quest (I): The Quest for Power haspleted!]
[Reward: Regalia of Eclipse 1st Power!]
WEEEEEEEEENGGG~~!!!
The massive amount of vitality energy concentrated in the space between Tang Li Xue''s eyebrows.
Tang Li Xue also felt that her Spirit Power was being drained so quickly, but there was nothing she could do right now other then gritted her teeth and waited until it was over.
Tang Li Xue did not realize that there was a mysterious eye was appeared between her eyebrows.
The mysterious eye was so beautiful yet looks ethereal. nced at this mysterious eye was the same as staring directly at the Eclipse itself.
The mysterious eye slowly closed again and disappeared, as if it never appeared at all.
While Tang Li Xue slowly opened her eyes and shook her head to clear her dizziness. Her Spirit Power was almost dried, so her face was very pale right now.
But Tang Li Xue did not worry about it since she only needs to sleep in one night to recover from it. She swiftly opened her system notification instead.
Ding!
[The Eye of Eclipse has sessfully been formed!]
[The user has partially awakened the Power of Regalia!]
[Awakening the Regalia of Eclipse 1st Power: Eclipse of Desire!]
Ding!
[Chain Side-Quest (II): The Quest for Power]
[Quest: Consume 5 Human''s High-Rank Golden Cores (0/5)]
[Reward: Regalia of Eclipse 2nd Power!]
''Another Side-Quest? But no option to use High-level [Rare] grade beast cores right now?! Tsk! So I must use 5 Human''s High-Rank Golden Cores now? What Golden Cores anyway?! Is it associated with the Core Formation Stage cultivator?'' Tang Li Xue has so many questions in her mind, but she decided to put it aside for now and checked the effect of her new power.
There was an additional line in Tang Li Xue''s status window right now.
Regalia: Eclipse [Eclipse of Desire]
Tang Li Xue tapped the [Eclipse of Desire] to read its description.
[Eclipse of Desire]: locks the target''s mind and soul within their own desire make them unable to return to reality.
(The number of targets and the might of this power depend on the user''s Spirit stat.)
(The duration of this power depends on the target''s attachment with their desire.)
(The number of targets: 1)
(Cooldown: 3 nights)
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief again and wiped the cold sweat on her forehead while thought: ''Fortunately, I already raised my Spirit stat all the way to 780 or this [Eclipse of Desire] would be another useless power to me right now!''
Tang Li Xue really wanted to test this [Eclipse of Desire] so badly right now, but unfortunately, it was the illusion type ability, so she could only use it on the living being.
Tang Li Xue decided to not go into the Sun Dragon King''s memories today and went to sleep right away for a few hours to restore her exhausted Spirit Power.
.....
...
.
Yaya woke Tang Li Xue up very early in the morning and both of them took a bath together before went out of their room to meet with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Not only Tang Li Xue, but Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao also improved much more than before thanks to the difficult training from Instructor Mei Lan and inhumane lessons from Teacher Bai Wuchen.
The three of them were filled with confidence, and they were quite impatient to test their current prowess in this Silver-Rank Trial.
"Let''s go to the mission hall now!" Tang Li Xue said while giggled at Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao smiled and nodded back to Tang Li Xue.
Yaya whozily sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head and Tang Li Xue were heading out from the Residential Building together with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
It did not take long for them to reach the Mission Hall.
The three of them took out the Rmendation Letter from Instructor Mei Lan and gave it to the front desk staff.
The front desk staff recorded their names in her book and instructed them: "You three can enter room D-3 first and wait for the examiner there."
Tang Li Xue nodded to the front desk staff, and she entered the room, which the front desk staff pointed to with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
There were 70-100 people already waiting inside the room since they already came before them.
From their uniform and robe, Tang Li Xue and the others knew that all of these people were the students from Education Building too just like them.
Most of them were the red-robed students from Executor ss, while some of them were blue-robed students from Inspector ss like them. There were even several ck-robed students from Elite ss.
When Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao?pushed open the room''s door, everyone in the room stared at Tang Li Xue and the others for a moment, but they immediately lost their interest after they realized
that Tang Li Xue and the others were not the examiners.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao also did not bother to talk to any of them. They took seats at the corner of the rooms and only waited for the examiner toe patiently.
They waited for half an hour in the room before the two examiners entered the room.
The examiners were not the old men like what Tang Li Xue imagined in her mind. On the contrary, the two examiners were two beautiful youngdies like Instructor Mei Lan, but their expression was cold.
The two examiners stood in front of the crowds and scanned every people in the room quietly for a few moments.
"Our badge is not only the symbol of our identity but also showing what we are capable of. Holding the Silver Badge is meaningless if you all cannot evenpleting the simplest D-Grade mission. So the first step of the Silver-Rank Trial is toplete a random simplest D-Grade mission!" One of the two examiners announced.
''Uwaaah¡ As I expected from the Fox Race! The custom is really different from humans! It starts right to the point without any introduction and meaningless courtesy! Teacher Zhiruo and Instructor Mei Lan are also like this in the entry trial before!'' Tang Li Xue smiled nostalgically.
Under the two examiners'' guide, the crowd split into three based on their sses: Inspector ss, Executor ss, and Elite ss.
The reason for that was simple. It was because the three sses would get a random D-Grade mission from the examiners ording to their specialty soon.
Not long after that, the two examiners started to hand out a bamboo tube to each of them ording to their ss.
''A bamboo tube~?! What is the use of this thing?'' Tang Li Xue examined the bamboo tube in her grasp carefully in curiosity.
Chapter 238 - 238: Tang Li Xues First Mission!
Chapter 238 - 238: Tang Li Xue''s First Mission!
The crowds were also confused like Tang Li Xue, but one of the examiners also immediately exined about the bamboo tubes after they distributed it to everyone.
"All of the crucial information about your mission is contained inside that bamboo tube. The information about the mission very vital, who knows if someone with the evil intention set a trap or hijack that mission?! So in order to keep the information safe and only the fox who takes the mission know. We, the foxes from the mission hall stored the information inside that bamboo tube."?The examiner said with a monotonous tone.
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding and thought: ''These people from the mission hall are surely more meticulous than I thought!''
All the D-Grade missions or higher written on the mission board were very vague, such as: ''assassinate Core Formation Stage cultivator'', '' harvest a miracle fruit in a ce with the C-Grade danger level'', and so on.
It was impossible to know the Core Formation Stage cultivator''s identity or the ce where they could find the target just from looking at the mission board.
Only after they took the mission and given the bamboo tube containing the hidden crucial information from the staff of the mission hall that they could finally carry out that mission andplete it to get the reward.
"Every time you take the mission out of Myriad Foxes Academy, you will certainly get this bamboo tube. If you open the bamboo tube and tap it onto your forehead, all information about the mission will be transferred directly into your mind just like how the jade slip works." The examiner continued her exnation.
"If you meet with any danger you cannot handle in your mission, you can also crush this bamboo tube to ask for the help from the rescue team of the Myriad Foxes Academy, but it also means that your reward will go to the rescue team and you will not get anything from your mission." The other examiner added with a yful teasing tone.
"After youplete your mission, do not forget to give that bamboo tube back to the staff of the mission hall, or your reward would be canceled! You can open your bamboo tube and carry out your mission now! Remember, you have toplete your mission in a week, or you will be disqualified! Good luck!" After finished saying her words, the two examiners went out of the room.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao looked at each other and smiled. The three of them opened their own bamboo tube and tapped it onto their forehead.
D-Grade Escorting Mission:
Escort the disciples from the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association to buy some rare herbs in the south of the Lightwind Continent, Capital City of Hong Empire, Quanhai City.
Mission objective:
- Protect the disciples from the pharmacy and alchemist.
- Buy all the required rare herbs.
Reward: 5,000 credits
''Ooohhh?! Only escorting mission? This should be not that hard!'' Tang Li Xue''s eyes turned brighter after she saw her mission.
"I get an escort mission. What about you guys?" Tang Li Xue asked Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao with a tone full of curiosity.
"I get a mission to pick up some precious herbs in the forest." Bing Yi said with an unhappy tone.
It seems she thought her mission was not challenging enough.
"My mission is to track a human criminal and kill him! I only need to bring back his head toplete my mission." Hei Yinghao told his mission to Tang Li Xue while grinned happily. On contrary to Bing Yi, he seemed very pleased with his current mission.
Since they got different missions in different locations, they could only bid farewell to each other and split up to carry out their own respective mission.
Tang Li Xue went out of the mission hall with Yaya, and they were heading to the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association together.
When Tang Li Xue arrived there, she wanted to enter the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association building, but they got obstructed by the guards in front of the gate.
"Halt! Take out your Pharmacy and Alchemist Association''s badge, rmendation letter, or invitation letter to enter! Get lost if you do not have any of it!" One of the two guards shouted with a stern tone to Tang Li Xue.
"I just receive an escort mission from the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association. You can check this bamboo tube if you do not believe me." Tang Li Xue replied while took out the bamboo tube from her space pouch.
The guards took the bamboo tube from Tang Li Xue and tapped it into their forehead to check the content of the mission.
One of the guards nodded to his fellow guards before giving back the bamboo tube to Tang Li Xue and said: "Follow me! I will escort you to meet the disciples in charge of purchasing those herbs."
Tang Li Xue smiled at the guard and nodded.
At first, the guard escorted Tang Li Xue to the front desk in the front hall and Tang Li Xue needed to register her personal information, such as name, species, and so on.
After that, the guard brought Tang Li Xue into the waiting room, where the two disciples from the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association who already waiting for her toe since an hour ago.
One of the disciples was a young girl from the pharmacy department, while the other one was a young man from the Alchemist Department.
Both of their appearances looked average at best, but the way they raised their chin and looked down on Tang Li Xue made them appear extremely arrogant and small-minded.
"Uh... Hi! My name is Tang Li Xue, nice to meet with you all!" Tang Li Xue waved her hand and introduced herself to the two disciples of the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association.
However, both of them did not bother to reply to Tang Li Xue at all. They only stared at Tang Li Xue from the tip to toe as if they were trying to evaluate Tang Li Xue''s prowess.
"You look really weak though! Can you escort us safely? I really doubt it! Whatever... Let''s go now so we can finish this quickly!" The guy from Alchemist Department did not even bother to introduce himself and walked toward the entrance.
Tang Li Xue also did not bother to get angry at them. She rolled her eyes in annoyance.
Yaya puffed her cheek cutely in anger. She really wanted to tear these two ungrateful foxes into tiny pieces with her new skills, but she also knew that she would surely bring big trouble to her beloved Xue if she really did that, so she could only hold back her anger for now.
Tang Li Xue giggled at Yaya and picked her from the top of her head then kissed her a few times tofort her.
The two of them started ying around and giggling happily for a few minutes while kept following the two disciples from behind.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya only stopped ying around after they reached the gigantic room.
"Woah! This is the second time I see this enormous hall, but really¡ it still looks so amazing!" Tang Li Xue murmured while opened her eyes in surprise.
Tang Li Xue followed the two disciples and stepped into the gigantic bright hall.
Tang Li Xue silently stared at the disciples when both of them took the ck cloak and wore it to cover their body and head.
When one of the disciples saw that Tang Li Xue only watching at them, he rolled his eyes and said with a tone filled with ridicule: "Are you stupid or what?! We are going to the human city to buy our things! Are you really going there like that?!"
''Oh, yes! I almost forgot about that! Hehe¡'' Tang Li Xueughed at herself in irony. Because she always took human form in this Myriad Foxes Academy, she started to think that it was normal for her to appear like this.
She almost forgot that even though she might be in the human form right now, but she was not the real human. She still has a pair of fox ears and a furry tail.
She would certainly be hunted by the humans if she entered the human city with this kind of appearance.
But the problem was Tang Li Xue did not have any cloak or clothes to cover her fox ears and a furry tail.
''I should buy more spare clothes and cloak!'' Tang Li Xuemented in her heart.
Fortunately, the female disciple took pity on Tang Li Xue and gave her spare cloak to Tang Li Xue.
"Thank you very much! I will¡" Tang Li Xueughed bashfully and thanked but before she could finish her words.
"You do not need to thank or give that cloak back to me. I just want this assignment as soon as possible. That''s all." The female disciple quickly replied.
"Tsk! Such a useless escort! If we can leave without any escort, then we should just¡" The male disciple started to grit his teeth andined.
"That''s enough! Let''s go!" The female disciple clearly did not want to waste any more time and jumped up to one of the giant stone rings.
Tang Li Xue quickly dr.a.p.ed the ck cloak on her shoulder. The ck cloak perfectly covered her fox ears and a furry tail. It even covered Yaya, who sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
But the naughty Yaya pushed the ck hood upward a bit so she could see the scene in front of her.
The female disciple took out a gold ticket from her space pouch and tore it. The moment the gold ticket tear in two, the space in front of them split into two showed the scene in the middle of the lush forest.
Both disciples entered the space gate without any hesitation, and Tang Li Xue swiftly followed them from behind.
''Oh, right! I should try to set this mission as a quest in my system, so I can get some rewards from my system too!'' Tang Li Xue smiled brighter as she thought about that.
Chapter 239 - 239: Hard Level Difficulty!
Chapter 239 - 239: Hard Level Difficulty!
It only took a few moments for the two disciples and Tang Li Xue to step out from the space gate.
The space gate immediately closed and vanished after the three of them stepped out from it, leaving them all in the middle of the lush forest now.
''System!'' Tang Li Xue tried to send her thought and ask the quest from her system.
Actually, Tang Li Xue also wanted to do this too before she fought with Mogui''s team.
But she quickly changed her mind and decided to not do it after she heard that her chance of winning was only less than 50 percent from Instructor Mei Lan.
However, Tang Li Xue thought that this mission was only the simplest D-Grade mission, so she should be able to do it.
-----------------------------------------------------

[Requirement: Absolute obedience from the conceited disciples.]

-----------------------------------------------------
''What the... Hard level difficulty quest?! Isn''t this just the simplest D-Grade escorting mission?'' Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock when she read the notification from her system.
Tang Li Xue had alreadypleted several quests from her system by now, and she already realized that the level of difficulty from the system''s quest was proportional to her current level and strength.
In short, the current quest''s difficulty was ''Hard'' even with her current strength and the help of her perfect copy, Yaya, Phoenix of Pride, and her martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent]!
''Requirement toplete this quest is the ''Absolute obedience from these two disciples''?! What does it mean?! This is more like a clue rather than a requirement! And asking for these two arrogant foxes to obey me is an almost impossible task to begin with...'' Tang Li Xue groaned in her heart.
Tang Li Xue thought she was lucky enough to get a mission where she only needs to watch for the disciples to go shopping while sight-seeing in the human''s city with Yaya...
Who knew that she actually got a mission where she needs to take care of the two spoiled disciples, not only from the external threat but also from themselves so they would not make or involve in any problem!
Tang Li Xue sighed in frustration, but she quickly cheered herself up: ''Fuuuh... That''s okay! I am a human before! With my rich knowledge in human society, I have full confidence toplete this quest and mission!''
Actually..... How could Tang Li Xue have rich knowledge in human society when she spent almost all of her time lying down in the hospital...?
Rustle... Rustle... Rustle...
All of them only stepped out from the space gate just a few moments ago, and the two disciples still looked at the map in their grasp, trying to figure out which route they should take to reach Quanhai City.
However, Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] already caught something dangerous approaching them fast.
Tang Li Xue immediately activated her [Ethereal Form] and her slender figure vanished into thin air along with Yaya.
She also activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability to summon out her perfect copy.
''Your job is to try befriended with these two disciples and seek their cooperation. Try to get their trust and make them listen to your word. Do not worry about any danger, I and Yaya will protect you all from behind!'' Tang Li Xue told her perfect copy about her current task.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nodded at Tang Li Xue before approaching the two disciples from the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association.
"Be careful! Some wolvese toward us from our right side!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy whispered to the two disciples and warned them with a stern tone.
"Nonsense! How can you sense them if I cannot sense them at all?! We are still trying to find the safest and fastest route to Quanhai City with this map! Go away! Don''t bother us doing our job!" The male disciple rebuked Tang Li Xue in a harsh manner.
The perfect copy''s mouth twitched violently in annoyance.
She stared pleadingly at the real Tang Li Xue. As if she was begging to exchange her job with the real Tang Li Xue.
Of course, the real Tang Li Xue ignored her perfect copy''s plead and pretended to not realized her begging stare.
Actually, Tang Li Xue rather chose to face Mogui''s team once more than get in contact with these arrogant two disciples... but she could not ignore the requirement shown by her system so she told her perfect copy to do it instead.
''Six... Eight... Twelve green wolves! But they do not look strong, so it should be okay.'' Tang Li Xue used her [Extrasensory Perception] to peek at all the green wolves which tried to surround them before pounced toward them at once.
[Species: Green Scaled Wolf]
[Qualification: Normal]
[Grade: Umon]
[Level: 25]
[HP:21,800/21,800]
The [Green Scaled Wolves] level varied from 21 to 25, but the strongest among them was only level 25, but they were not very strong but very cunning.
They used the tall bushes as their cover and moved quietly with almost inaudible sound to approach Tang Li Xue''s group. They even stealthy surrounded them from all directions now.
In fact, if Tang Li Xue did not have detect-type divine ability such as [Five Senses Enhancement] or [Extrasensory Perception], she would never realize any of these [Green Scaled Wolves]''s movement at all.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy groaned in her heart, but there was nothing she could do to make these two disciples move. She could only activate her [Energy Maniption] and created ten white jade-like swords from her vitality energy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copypressed her ten white jade-like swords into two when the twelve [Green Scaled Wolves] jumped out from the tall bushes around them from all directions at the same time.
SWIIIISH~!!! SWIIIISH~!!!
The twopressed white jade-like swords vanished from everyone''s view the moment they moved!
After thepression, not only the two white jade-like swords became many times more durable and sharper than before, but it could also move many times faster than before!
The two white swords shed away leaving two white streaks on the air and...
PUUUFFF~~!!! PUUUUFF~~!!! PUUUFFF~~!!!
shed seven [Green Scaled Wolves] in two at once easily like tofu!
The other five [Green Scaled Wolves] scared out of their wits. They wanted nothing but escape from here as fast as possible.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s copy would not let that happen, as her two white swords shed away once again and tore the rest five [Green Scaled Wolves] into two too without giving any chance for them tond their feet on the ground.
"AAAAHHHH~!!!"
The real Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were startled by the female disciple''s sudden scream.
Both of them were really sure that no [Green Scaled Wolves] or any foes coulde close without being noticed by their powerful detection of [Extrasensory Perception] so how could...
"The blood sshed onto our map!!!" The female disciple shouted in anger, and her expression distorted in disgust.
The male disciple gritted his teeth and stared angrily at Tang Li Xue''s copy then shouted with a tone full of anger: "This is your fault! You already noticed those wolves approaching us since long ago, why do you need to y them all here?! You can go a bit far away and y them there!"
Tang Li Xue''s copy rolled her eyes when she heard the make disciple''sint. She was toozy to argue with him and took a peek at the map from behind.
The wolf''s blood sshed onto the map, but the map itself was made from the good beast skin so the map was actually still in good condition. They only need to wipe the blood away with a handkerchief or dry cloth.
"You can just wipe the blood away, but first, we must get away from here as soon as possible. The smell of blood is too strong here. It will certainly attract more beasts, possibly even stronger beasts." Tang Li Xue''s copy said to them and warned them again.
"Bullsh*t! Don''t tell me that you actually exhausted from ying those trashy beasts and cannot even defeat a few more beasts?! If we roam around randomly in the unknown forest, we will definitely get lost even with the map in our hands! Are you stupid or what?!" The male disciple shouted loudly with a shrill voice out of anger.
Tang Li Xue''s copy rubbed her forehead in frustration, and she started to feel a great headache.
''Sigh¡ I cannot stand this anymore! I will really go crazy soon and y these two with my own hands if this keeps going like this! No, who knows if my OP system will get taken away from me if my quest failed here?! Should I justmit suicide right now to force my original to take my ce? It seems that is the only way¡'' Tang Li Xue''s copy sighed and pondered carefully.
''Oi, Oi, Oi~!!! Are you in a rebellious phase or something?! How could you think something dangerous like that?!'' The expression of the real Tang Li Xue darkened a lot, and she immediately sent her thoughts to scold her copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stared at the real Tang Li Xue with contempt in her eyes.
''All right! I understand! Just do what I told you for now¡ we will exchange our role every hour. Are you happy now?'' The real Tang Li Xue finally yielded under her perfect copy contempt gaze.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy smiled and nodded happily to the real Tang Li Xue.
''Tsk! How could this happen?! Usually, my perfect copy is so obedient and will neverin even when I use her as a sacrifice?! Are you trying to say that death is a lot better than befriended with these two disciples?'' The real Tang Li Xue also rubbed her forehead in frustration.
RRROOOOOOAAAAAARRRR~~!!!
The expression of both Tang Li Xue turned solemn when they heard the loud roaring from behind them.
Chapter 240 - 240: Heading to Quanhai City!
Chapter 240 - 240: Heading to Quanhai City!
It was actually a deafening roar from the [Rare] grade demonic beast. It seems already noticing the presence of Tang Li Xue''s group and heading toward them swiftly along with its mob.
"Uhh¡ Guys, I think we really should move from here now! Something stronger is heading this way!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy urged the two disciples once more.
"Shut up! Do not urge us or we might make a mistake!" The female disciple angrily shouted to Tang Li Xue. But she already took out a cloth and wiped the blood on the map cleanly.
Tang Li Xue used her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability to peeked at the [Rare] grade demonic beast who approaching them.
[Species: Obsidian Bear King]
[Qualification: Normal]
[Grade: Rare]
[Level: 24]
[HP: 199,100/199,100]
That [Rare] grade demonic beast was actually a big savage ck bear, but the way it ttened everything on its way made it more like a giant bulldozer instead.
All the ck furs on its muscr giant body shone with metallic light as if that big savage ck bear was wearing ck armor.
Just one look was already enough to tell that this giant ck bear was the type that has the tough defense and powerful strength butcking in agility.
''Sigh¡ This bear is the type I hate the most! It is better to avoid frontal contact with it¡'' The real Tang Li Xue grimaced and started to ponder her next move swiftly.
The defense-type opponent like Mogui and this ck bear was the type Tang Li Xue hated the most because she was severelycking in the term of offense.
Of course, she could use her deep-blue me of Pride to easily defeat them, but Tang Li Xue did not want anyone to see her me of Pride.
Tang Li Xue did not want anyone to get any clue about her divine treasure the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl], so she already decided under Instructor Mei Lan''s advice that the moment she used her me of Pride, she must silence all the witnesses forever cleanly.
Unfortunately, she could not do that to these two disciples or she would fail in both of her mission and quest.
Tang Li Xue could also use her golden [Inscription Pen] like when she defeated Mogui, but she must enter [Divine Possession] state with Yaya and be fast enough to dodge all attacks while inscribing the runes on her opponent''s body.
"Yaya ya yaya~~! Yayaya! Yaya!" Yaya babbled to Tang Li Xue and patted her chest with a proud expression.
Tang Li Xue chuckled when she heard Yaya said that ''I have already be strong enough~! I can defeat that big guy alone now! Let me fight!''
Tang Li Xue patted Yaya''s head gently and consoled her: ''Calm down, Strong Little Lady! This is not your turn yet. We do not even need to fight here.''
''What a pain¡ let''s just force them and bring them away from here now!'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind.
''But¡ they still do not want to go? What should I do? Drag them away?'' Tang Li Xue''s copyined.
''Just knock them out for now! You will only need to exin that they were knocked out by an invisible bearter!'' The real Tang Li Xuezily replied with her consciousness.
Tang Li Xue''s copy stared at the real Tang Li Xue in amazement: ''Are you a genius or what?!''
The real Tang Li Xue only rolled her eyes and did not bother to reply. She used her [Energy Maniption] to create a big flying disc.
BAAAAAAANGGG~!!! BAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
While her perfect copy grasped her fist tightly and struck the two disciples head heavily from behind when both of them anxiously trying to determine their traveling route on the map as soon as possible.
The two disciples fell unconscious and nted their faces onto the grassy ground first. The thick blood flowed out profusely from their injured head.
If someone saw this scene they would think that Tang Li Xue ambushed them from behind to kill both of them.
''Are you stupid?! Do you really need to strike them that hard?!'' The real Tang Li Xue quickly checked the two disciples'' condition.
''I¡ I don''t know that they are that weak! I thought they should be quite strong since they are from the Fox Race too so I use more strength. I swear it''s not because I want to vent my anger and frustration to them.'' Tang Li Xue''s copy exined while dragged the female disciple and threw her to the flying disc harshly like a broken doll.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched when she saw what her copy did while she tried to carefully put the male disciple to the flying disc.
RRROOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRR~~!!!
The [Obsidian Bear King] already dashed out from the nearby bushed and pounced toward them.
Tang Li Xue and her copy hastily jumped to the flying disc.
"GO~!!!" Tang Li Xue controlled the flying disc and it instantly soared into the sky.
However, the [Obsidian Bear King] still did not give up that easily. It chased after them and jumped to smash the flying disc with its giant bear ws.
It was really surprising that despite having such a giant-sized body, the [Obsidian Bear King] could still jump so high by just using its enormous strength!
The real Tang Li Xue put all of her concentration to control and stabilize the flying disc, so she could not get distracted now.
This was the difference between using the [Elemental Compression] or ability like [Energy Maniption] to fly and using the real treasure or artifact such as flying sword, transport disc, and so on to fly.
The real treasure or artifact already has several runes that would automatically stabilize it and the user only needs to input the simple order such as the direction and speed.
Since the real Tang Li Xue currently could not anything, her perfect copy decided to hinder the [Obsidian Bear King]!
The twopressed white swords she created before shed toward the [Obsidian Bear King]!
CLAAAAAAANNKK~!!! CLAAAAAAANNKK~!!!
When the twopressed white swords stabbed onto the jumping [Obsidian Bear King] in the mid-air, both of it bounced off instead as if it met with the hard steel wall!
The attack of twopressed white swords only managed to cut a few strands of ck metallic fur from the [Obsidian Bear King]''s body.
"Damn it! Is this really a bear or a tank?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy grumbled.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy canceled her [Transfiguration: Human Form] and turned back into her fox form.
Two white silvery tails and one golden me tail fluttered behind her back. When she turned back into her fox form, her overall stats increased by three times!
With a single thought, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instantly created out thirty white jade-like swords hovering around her.
[Elemental Compression]!
The thirty white jade-like swordspressed into one silver-colored sword under the control of Tang Li Xue''s copy.
The [Obsidian Bear King]''s beastly instinct sensed the dangerous aura from the silver-colored sword and raised both of its thick arms to defend its chest and head.
''Let''s see how tough you are! Take this!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waved her paw and the silver-colored sword vanished leaving behind only a silvery-white streak on its way.
PPPPPPUUUUFFFF~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy aimed at the [Obsidian Bear King]''s brain, but the silver-colored sword only managed to pierce its thick arms and the tip stopped right at its forehead.
''It can even block that?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in surprise.
But the recoil from the silver-colored sword managed to push the [Obsidian Bear King] backward, and it dropped back onto the ground while the Tang Li Xue''s flying disc flew higher and higher then vanished into the cloud.
However, this short battle opened Tang Li Xue''s eyes once again. That [Obsidian Bear King] only has [Normal] qualification, but it still managed to block one of Tang Li Xue''s powerful attacks.
???There are still so many foxes stronger than me in the Myriad Foxes Academy. While there are so many Beast Races in this Immortal World¡ and countless geniuses from the Human Race too¡ who knows how many strong creatures in Undead Race. Sigh¡ It seems I have be toocent because of my growth recently. With my current strength, I still must be careful to protect myself.'' Tang Li Xue warned herself in her heart.
The real Tang Li Xue drove the flying disc, while her perfect copy activated her [Transfiguration: Human Form] again and turned back into her human form.
Her perfect copy took the map from the two disciples'' grasp and examined it carefully.
[Scanning the map using the skill (Mapping Sense)¡]
[Scanningplete!]
Tang Li Xue''s copy stared at the 3D map inside her consciousness. There was a red dot marking their current position inside that 3D map.
With this 3D map and the red dot marking, it was impossible for them to get lost. They only need to fly while following this 3D map and make the red dot marking heading to Quanhai City!
''Woah! This skill is so practical! Oh, yeah¡ I can put a single tracker with this [Mapping Sense]! Let''s put the tracker on one of these two disciples, who knows if we get separated with themter!'' Tang Li Xue thought.
The real Tang Li Xue put her tracker to the female disciple''s neck, while her perfect copy put her tracker to the male disciple''s neck.
After that, Tang Li Xue started to increase her flying disc''s speed, and all of them heading to Quanhai City.
Yaya flew out from Tang Li Xue''s hood and looked at the scene around them full of curiosity and excitement.
Chapter 241 - 241: Make Trouble at the Front Gate!
Chapter 241 - 241: Make Trouble at the Front Gate!
When Tang Li Xue''s flying disc approached Quanhai City, she decided tond a few miles away from the major road leading to Quanhai City''s gate because she did not want to draw any attention.
Yaya has already fallen asleep on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head while Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy kept looking after their surrounding from any iing threat in her [Ethereal Form]¡ Okay, actually, it was the real Tang Li Xue''s turn tomunicate with the two conceited disciples now.
Tang Li Xue took out two [Talisman of Regeneration +2] from her space pouch and threw each of it toward the two disciples.
Actually, all of the demonic beast''s bodies already have incredible regeneration thanks to their abundant vitality energy in their beast cores.
Even these two disciples'' wound was almostpletely recovered after a few hours.
But Tang Li Xue did not want them to realize that there was a wound behind their head, who knows if they would get suspicious to Tang Li Xueter andined to the mission hall because of it.
With the help of [Talisman of Regeneration +2] healing effect, the wound on the two disciples'' heads slowly healed andpletely vanished without any trace in less than a minute.
A few nights before taking this Silver-Rank Trial, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had already made many kinds of talismans as preparation for emergency situations.
She also made tons of these [Talisman of Regeneration +2], many of them were even [Talisman of Regeneration +3], while only several of them were [Talisman of Regeneration +4].
It did not take long for the two disciples to regain their consciousness after their woundpletely recovered.
"What... What happen... where are we now?" The female disciple rubbed her forehead to ease her headache while tried to stand up, but she immediately staggered and almost fell onto the ground again.
Tang Li Xue swiftly caught the female disciple''s arm so she would not fell and asked: "Are you alright? You do not need to push yourself. Just take a rest for a while."
"What happens? Why are we here? Thest time I remember, we are still in the deep forest." The male disciple asked while his face grimaced in pain, and he started to massage his forehead too.
"We¡ err¡ got poisoned by an unknown beast in that forest¡ and you two have passed out¡ umm¡ Fortunately, I have¡ uhh¡ the poison''s antidote, so I carried you two here and feed you two the antidote. In short, everything is okay right now, and we are only a few miles away from Quanhai City. Let''s go!" Tang Li Xue hastily walked toward the major road to Quanhai City.
Both disciples looked at each other in confusion and felt unconvinced with Tang Li Xue''s exnation, but they did not have any other choice other than believe her since both of them did not know what really happened before.
Both disciples quickly stood up and followed Tang Li Xue from behind.
The three of them quickly adjusted their ck cloak so it wouldpletely cover their fox ears and tail before blending with the crowds of humans and heading toward Quanhai City with them.
There was nearly a hundred-foot tall solid stone wall surrounded the Quanhai City, protecting the city from any external harm such as demonic beast or bandits.
Countless armored guards took turns patrolling above the stone wall.
Even Yaya woke up the moment they reached Quanhai City and observed her surrounding in excitement and curiosity.
Several armored guards in front of Quanhai City''s giant gate were carefully inspecting the identity doc.u.ments and the goods of all the people who wanted to enter the city. It probably took the guards ten minutes of inspecting one group of merchants before allowed them to enter the city.
Tang Li Xue''s group was already queuing up, but they were still so far away from the Quanhai City''s gate.
They would probably need to wait for several days before they could enter the Quanhai City at this rate.
"This is too long! Oi, you are quite strong, aren''t you? Can you just bring us to enter by force?" The male discipleined and said to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently and screamed in her heart: ''Are you an idiot? You want to make trouble in front of their door, but you want to shop peacefully inside their territory?! Dream on! Kid, this world is not as nice as you think! Do you really think this city is your Association''s building or your mommy''s home?!''
Tang Li Xue swallowed her dissatisfaction and tried to warn them softly: "Please, don''t act rashly¡ We still do not know how many strong cultivators currently living inside this city! Let me think for a moment about how to enter this city as soon as possible¡"
"Oh, yes... before that¡ can I ask you something?" Tang Li Xue smiled at the two disciples and asked.
The two disciples did not bother to reply and only nodded their headszily.
"Is this your first time out of Myriad Foxes Academy?" Tang Li Xue asked with a polite tone.
The two disciples nodded their headszily again.
"Oh¡ so this is also your first time buying something?" Tang Li Xue asked again while smiled gently.
"Tsk¡ Argh¡ why are you keep asking so many questions?! Yes, this is our first time! Are you satisfied?! Now, use your brain to think about how we can enter the city soon or I will break in forcefully from the front! I don''t believe that there is a strong human cultivator in this kind of backwater city!" The female disciple cried at Tang Li Xue to vent her annoyance and anger.
Tang Li Xue nodded with a nk smile on her face and thought: ''Finished¡ I am really finished this time! These two pampered good-for-nothing disciples definitely have parents with important positions at Pharmacy and Alchemist Association. If not, how could they suddenly receive this kind of important assignment outside the Myriad Foxes Academy without any experience?! I even started to doubt it if they could even buy the proper herbs inside Quanhai Cityter!''
At this moment, Tang Li Xue finally realized why this quest got ''Hard'' rate difficulty from her system.
''No! I really cannot put the fate of my mission and quest in their questionable ability!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she gritted her teeth.
With her skills such as [Concentration],[Focus], [Strengthen Willpower],?[Sharpen Mind], [Calction], [Prediction], [Intelligence Enhancement], Tang Li Xue started to devise several proper backup ns in her mind.
Not long after that, her invisible perfect copy stepped forward and nodded toward Tang Li Xue.
"Let''s go! I will bring you two to enter the city now!" Tang Li Xue whispered to the two disciples.
The eyes of the bored two disciples immediately lit up when they heard Tang Li Xue''s words, and they hastily followed Tang Li Xue from behind.
"I hope that you two can follow my instruction from now on, and please try to not talk to anyer." Tang Li Xue warned them, but she also tried to soften her tone, so these two disciples did not feel offended by her words.
But these two disciples did not reply and only frowned deeply: ''Even all the other disciples and elders in Pharmacy and Alchemist Association always ttered us, why we must listen to an unknown fox like you here?!''
The three of them approached the gate while several guards inspecting several carriages of the group of the merchant.
After the armored guards finished checking their identity doc.u.ments and goods in their carriages, the armored guards finally let them entered the gate.
"Wait a minute! I am sorry¡ but you identally dropped this behind." Tang Li Xue jogged toward the group of merchants while holding a small sack in her hands.
When all the people''s attention including all the guards focused on the sack in Tang Li Xue''s grasp, suddenly¡
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
An ear-deafening explosion has urred behind them!
The entire street was thrown into chaos and panic!
All the people there started to screaming and running around like crowds of headless chickens!
The expression of all the guards turned solemn, and they hastily unsheathed their weapons before rushing toward where the explosion happened.
RRROOOOOOAAAAAARRRR~~!!!
A silhouette of the silver-white fox dashing on the ground was currently fighting fiercely against the golden-winged dragon flying in the sky!
Of course, the silver-white fox was actually Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, while the golden-winged dragon was actually Tang Li Xue''s martial soul, the [Winged Golden Serpent].
Tang Li Xue nned to use them as a distraction and take the advantage of this chaos to slip into Quanhai City.
"Let''s go! Follow me closely!" Tang Li Xue turned around and said with a stern tone.
But those two disciples were no longer following behind Tang Li Xue anymore and ran toward the direction of the explosion too!
''Oh, no! What the hell are these two crazy disciples trying to do?!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart. She really wanted to cry and give up this mission so badly right now.
Tang Li Xue''s speed with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] was many times faster than them, so she easily caught up to them.
"Wait! Stop! What are two want to do?! We should enter the city right now!" Tang Li Xue whispered to them.
"Of course, we are going to help that poor little fox! Look at that fox! How can you not feel sorry when that poor fox get bullied by those guards and giant gold snake?!" The male disciple shouted at Tang Li Xue angrily.
Tang Li Xue almost passed out in anger when she heard the male disciple''s words. She already used her perfect copy and martial soul to staged this amazing distraction scene, but these two made all of her effort in vain.
Chapter 242 - 242: Slipping into Quanhai City!
Chapter 242 - 242: Slipping into Quanhai City!
KREEEKK... BAAAAAM!
The thick steel double gate has shut so tightly, and Tang Li Xue''s group could no longer slip into the Quanhai City.
The countless armored guards have lined up on the top of the hundred-foot tall solid stone wall and pushed out the Lesser Spirit Cannon out, then aimed it at the [Golden Winged Serpent] in the sky.
Some of the armored guards took out their bows and aimed their arrows at the white-silver fox in front of the gate.
All of their movements were neat and precise as if they already trained this countless times.
While Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in anger and frustration, she really wanted to strangle these two stupid disciples to death.
To make it worse, the two disciples started to kill the guards who attacking her perfect copy with their ws...
Yes, with their CLAWS!
''Sigh... Which humans attack and kill people with their ws?! Why don''t you just scream and tell the whole guards on the top of the wall that you two are foxes in human form?!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she almost fainted in anger.
If Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in her fox form really wanted to kill these guards, even if the number of these guards was ten times of now, she still could easily kill them all alone in a few seconds.
The reason these guards were still alive until now because she did not want to kill any innocent people.
The guards on the top of the wall started to shower them with their arrows while shot all of their Lesser Spirit Cannons, which using mid-tier spirit stones as fuel toward the [Golden Winged Serpent].
The situation immediately turned even more chaotic, like in the middle of the battlefield between the beasts and humans.
''Aiiihhh... What to do now?! Fuuuuhhh... Calm down, Tang Li Xue! Let''s bring these two idiots out from here first for now!'' Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm herself and dashed toward the two disciples.
With her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], Tang Li Xue''s speed was so fast that it seemed as if she blended with the surrounding scene and vanished in front of these humans'' eyes.
Tang Li Xue swiftly grabbed the two disciples'' cor from behind and dragged them away from the Quanhai City''s gate forcefully.
"Hei! What are you..." The male disciple wanted to shout at Tang Li Xue angrily, but he identally bit his tongue because Tang Li Xue forcefully dragging the two of them while moving at high speed.
The female disciple already started to feel dizzy and nauseous, so she could not say anyin or shout like the male disciple.
After Tang Li Xue ran for quite some distance, her martial soul [Golden Winged Serpent] and perfect copy automatically unsummoned and vanished from everyone''s view.
Tang Li Xue only stopped after she ran several tens of miles away from Quanhai City and released her grasp on the two disciples'' cor.
The two disciples coughed out violently when Tang Li Xue released them.
"Why don''t you two listen to me?! Why?! It is such a good chance! If you listen to my words, we should already enter Quanhai City right now!" Tang Li Xue said while gritted her teeth and tried to hold her anger, but sheined a bit to them.
Tang Li Xue immediately activated her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure turned invisible, then she activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability too to summon out her perfect copy.
"My high blood pressure is acting up, and I feel like I am going crazy soon. Please help me this time and rece me to talk nicely to those two for now or I might be losing my patience and y those two out of anger." Tang Li Xue told her perfect copy while rubbed her forehead to calm herself down.
"See?! I told you so! Now you know why I want tomit suicide before so you can take my ce!" Tang Li Xue''s copyughed at the real Tang Li Xue.
"Sigh... But we do not have any other choice other than babysitting them... Fortunately, there are two of us to handle them, and Yaya is so obedient today so the situation is still barely manageable... It seems we have no other choice other than using n B..." The real Tang Li Xue murmured while pondering carefully.
Yaya puffed her chest proudly as if she was saying: ''Look, I am already a grown-up now!''
Tang Li Xue giggled softly and patted Yaya''s head gently.
After the two disciples took a few breathes and calmed down, they started to screaming and shouting to Tang Li Xue''s copy.
"How dare you do that to us?! Are you tired of living?! Do you really want to kill us?! If we report this back as an attempt to murder us, you will instantly be executed when we back to Myriad Foxes Academy!" The male disciple roared angrily and spurted his saliva everywhere.
Tang Li Xue''s copy did not care about his angry words, but she took several steps backward to avoid his saliva.
"You dare to abandon your fellow fox at Quanhai City''s front gate and even trying to kill us. We will surely report this incident to our superiorter. I do not care how you do it, you must bring us into the city right now!" The female disciple told Tang Li Xue in a cold tone.
While both of the disciples scolded to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nonstop, the real Tang Li Xue already went behind them and clenched her fist tightly.
She canceled her [Ethereal Form] and appeared behind the two disciples, but they still did not realize it at all.
The real Tang Li Xue raised her tiny fist and...
BAAAAAAANGGG~!!! BAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
Swung her fist down forcefully twice!
Her fist struck the two disciples'' head heavily from behind and made them fell unconscious again. Both of them fell down and nted their faces onto the grassy ground.
The thick blood flowed out profusely from their injured heads again more than before.
"You... Are you really wanted to kill them? How could you strike them so hard?!" Tang Li Xue''s copy dumbfoundedly asked.
"Do not worry! They should be quite strong since they are from the Fox Race too, that is why I use more strength. I swear it''s not because I want to vent my anger and frustration to them." Tang Li Xue replied leisurely.
The mouth of Tang Li Xue''s copy twitched violently: ''Isn''t that the excuse I told you before?''
Tang Li Xue grabbed their legs and threw them to the medium-rank Space Pouch, which she bought from the store before.
Currently, Tang Li Xue has two space pouches.
Currently, Tang Li Xue has two space pouches. The Extreme-Rank Space Pouch she got from the Fake Dragon, and she used it to put all of her belonging, but unfortunately, she could not put any living creature there.
So she bought the medium-rank Space Pouch to put some living creatures inside... as her emergency food supplies.
But now, she threw the two disciples into the medium-rank Space Pouch, which contains all of her cattle... err... I mean her food supplies.
"Haaahhh... I should have done this from the very start instead of doing such a troublesome act!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she took a deep breath of fresh air as if she relieved from the heavy burden.
Tang Li Xue unsummoned her perfect copy and activated her [Ethereal Form] again. Her slender figure turnedpletely invisible along with her two space pouches too.
She sprinted back toward Quanhai City and arrived at the hundred-foot tall stone wall in a few minutes.
With her [Ethereal Form] ability, Tang Li Xue''s transparent figure easily passed through the thick stone wall and stepped into Quanhai City.
Actually, Tang Li Xue could do this since the beginning, but she also knew that the two arrogant disciples would never agree to enter her medium-rank Space Pouch and blend in with her¡ food supplies there. That was why she never asked those two disciples about this.
''Sigh... there is one more problem now! I do not have the list of precious herbs they need to buy! So I should wake them up once more? Just to ask them to buy the herbs? What if they making a fuss or problem againter?! Urgh¡ but I have no other choice!'' Tang Li Xue pondered and gritted her teeth in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue turned off her [Ethereal Form] in the dark alley, and her slender figure once again appeared.
She pulled her ck hood to cover her fox ears and her suspicious fox mask before walked out from the dark alley and blending with the crowds on the street.
The main street in the middle of Quanhai City was filled with people. It was extremely crowded and noisy, especially in the daytime like now.
Yaya stepped down from the top of Tang Li Xue''s head to her shoulder, just to look around in excitement and satisfy her curiosity.
Although the Myriad Foxes Academy looked far more astonishing and luxurious than this city, but this was the first time Yaya entered a human city like Quanhai City.
The feeling and atmosphere this city gave werepletely different from Myriad Foxes Academy.
Actually, this was also the first time for Tang Li Xue to enter the human city after she reincarnated into this world, but she just could not get off her mind from her mission and quest, so she did not have any mood to enjoy the scenery or sight-seeing around this city right now.
Chapter 243 - 243: Bottomless Idiocy!
Chapter 243 - 243: Bottomless Idiocy!
After Tang Li Xue entered deep into Quanhai City, she wanted to bring out these two disciples from her medium-rank Space Pouch first and wake up these two disciples to ask about what they had to buy.
But there was no secluded ce with no one around here, all crook and cranny of this city were packed full of people.
Tang Li Xue wanted to rent a room in the inn at the heart of Quanhai City and woke up these two disciples inside the room, but Tang Li Xue immediately realized her current biggest problem...
She has no money!
Forget about renting a room, she did not even have any cent to buy one candied fruit!
''Sigh... It seems I really have no other choice other than wake those two...'' Tang Li Xue thought as she rubbed her forehead in frustration.
Tang Li Xue took a turn and entered the nearby dark alley while activating her [Ethereal Form] again. Her slender figure vanished once again under some people''s watch.
Those people rubbed their eyes a few times before shaking their heads and think of that scene as an illusion.
With her [Ethereal Form] ability, Tang Li Xue could easily pass through any wall and obstacle without being noticed by anyone, so she stealthy entered the inn.
Tang Li Xue passed through the locked door easily and slipped into an empty room inside the inn.
She took out the two unconscious disciples from her medium-rank Space Pouch and threw them onto the floor before used her [Talisman of Regeneration +2] onto them again to cure the wound on their head.
This time it took a few minutes for them to regain their consciousness, and they started to stand up wobbly like a pair of drunken people.
"What happen again this time?!" The male disciple wanted to shout out loud angrily at first, but he was immediately assaulted by dizziness and headache then staggered around. He almost fell onto the floor again if Tang Li Xue did not hold his shoulder firmly to prevent him from falling.
"We... were ambushed by the guards from behind... and you two almost got caught before... then I bravely safe the two of you away from them...?and run into Quanhai City. We are inside Quanhai City''s inn right now." Tang Li Xue exined vaguely to them.
"Oh, so we already inside the city now?" The female disciple asked with a skeptical tone.
"Yes, we are currently inside Quanhai City''s inn right now. You only need to buy all the herbs you want, and then we can go back to Myriad Foxes Academy." Tang Li Xue said calmly, but her heart was not calm at all. In fact, she was really nervous.
''I swear if they dare to say that they want to sight-seeing around the city after buying all the herbs, I would definitely knock them out againter and forcefully bring them back to Myriad Foxes Academy whether they like it or not!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she silently gnashed her teeth.
"Then what are we waiting for right now?! Let''s go now and finish this assignment quickly!" The male disciple said with a stern tone and walked toward the door.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she heard that.
BBBAAAAAAANGGG~~!!!
The male disciple pushed the door, but it was locked. Unfortunately, it was toote for him to halt his step, so his head smashed heavily onto the locked door.
"Damn it! Are you stupid?! Why did you lock this door?! Open it now!" The male disciple shouted angrily at Tang Li Xue while rubbed the lump on his head to ease the pain.
Tang Li Xue only rolled her eyes in annoyance. She did not even bother to reply.
Tang Li Xue created a sharp dagger with her [Energy Maniption] divine ability and easily cut the lock on the door with it.
"By the way, why do our clothes smell so bad like this? It smells like... cattle manure..." The female disciple grimaced and said with a tone full of disgust.
Tang Li Xue''s cold sweat started to pour out crazily when she heard the female disciple''s words.
"Ah, maybe your clothes touched some horse feces when you got caught by the guards before..." Tang Li Xue quickly said to cover her mistake.
The two disciples took turns to enter the room again and changed their smelly clothes with the new one from their space pouch before they went out from the inn together with Tang Li Xue.
Thankfully, the people from the inn did not get suspicious of them because there were too many people whoe and go from the inn.
Before Tang Li Xue entered the inn, she already looked around Quanhai City to find the biggest pharmacy inside this city.
So Tang Li Xue''s task right now was only to lead these two disciples to that biggest pharmacy so they can buy all the things they need there.
''Fiuh... There should be no more problems after this. But I must ask about what they need to buy there just in case if they do something stupid or make some troubles again.'' Tang Li Xue pondered her next move carefully.
Her system judged that this mission was a ''Hard'' difficulty quest after all. It means she would meet with many difficulties toplete this quest.
"I am sorry, but can I ask what you need to buy here? Please, do not get me wrong, but I need to know what you want to buy here so I can bring you two to the right store to buy it." Tang Li Xue asked politely to the female disciple since she seemed a bit more reasonable than the male disciple.
The female disciple looked at Tang Li Xue suspiciously and pondered about it for a few moments.
"Pfffttt... Bwahahaha... So you want to know what we need to buy?! Even if we show that to you, an uneducated fox like you would never understand it! You do not even have any basic knowledge about herbs, pharmacy, or alchemist!" The male disciple sneered at Tang Li Xue and started to insult her nonstop.
"Can you even tell the difference between the bad quality herb and the good quality herb?!"
"I dare to bet that you would not even know if the shopkeeper scams you and give you a normal grass while saying it is the precious herbs!"
.....
Tang Li Xue ignored all of the male disciple''s insults as if she did not hear anything.
Tang Li Xue also realized that her [Strengthen Willpower] skill rapidly increasing while she was with these two disciplestely.
Her [Strengthen Willpower] was only at level 5 before, but now, it already reached Mastered Level in only one day.
The female disciple took a piece of paper from her space pouch and gave it to Tang Li Xue, but her expression and eyes were filled with contempt.
Tang Li Xue smiled and nodded to the female disciple before she took the piece of paper from the female disciple and looked at it.
Ingredients for:
Bloodline Strengthening Pill
Vitality Rejuvenation Pill
Body Reforming Pill
Bone Hardening Pill
.....
...
.
There were twelve kinds of pills in the list, but this paper only wrote about the pills, not the herbs they need to buy.
"Err... so we need to buy all of these pills? Not the herbs?" Tang Li Xue raised her head and asked in confusion.
"Stuuuupiiid~~!!! What we have to buy are the ingredients to make all of these pills! Bwahahaha... How about that? An uneducated idiot like you does not even understand what we have to buy here, right?! So you should just shut up and follow us! What you need to do is only guarding our safety, understand?!" The male disciple sneered at Tang Li Xue and mocked her again.
Tang Li Xue could only sigh in resignation this time since she did not know any ingredient to make any of these pills.
''I hope everything would be smooth and all right... It should be okay, right? We only need to buy the pills'' ingredients and go back to Myriad Foxes Academy to finish our mission!'' Tang Li Xueforted herself in her heart.
It only took them a half-hour of walking to reach the biggest pharmacy in Quanhai City.
When Tang Li Xue and the two disciples entered the pharmacy''s entrance and approached the front desk, the shopkeeper immediatelye over to meet them with a smiling face.
"Good evening to young master and young missus, wee to Caoyao Pharmacy. Our Caoyao Pharmacy is also known as the biggest pharmacy in Quanhai City. Young master and young missus, please tell me what kind of herbs you all want to buy, we will surely do our best to bring it to you at the market prices!" The shopkeeper politely greeted and exined.
The shopkeeper looked really old with a long white beard and mustache. His face was also filled with wrinkles, but he also seemed so experienced in this thing since he sounds really convincing like a salesman expert in Tang Li Xue''s previous life.
"Really? This shabby and dirty old shop is the best pharmacy in Quanhai City? It''s more like a scam store which selling fake medicine and herb! I warn you old human, if you dare to scam me, I will surely skin you alive and dip your body into a boiled corrosive poison!" The male disciple snorted in disdain and threatened the shopkeeper.
Tang Li Xue facepalmed when she heard the male disciple''s mocking and threatening words.
Fortunately, the shopkeeper was patient enough. Only his expression turned darker, and he did not call the guards to kick them out.
The shopkeeper probably thought that they wereing from influential families, so he did not dare to do something rashly.
"We want to buy 100 sets of 100 years old or older silver ginseng, 50 sets of 100 years old or older ck purple mushroom¡" The female disciple recited a really long list of herbs and materials to concoct the pills.
The shopkeeper quickly recorded what the female disciple wanted to buy.
At first, his face was full of delight since he thought a rich customer finallye to buy all of their stocks, but his expression immediately turned strange.
The reason for his suspicion was because this customer bought too many rare goods at once without any necessary negotiation.
Usually, only the rich merchants would buy these many goods from them. They were usually also haggling for the cheaper prices before making the preparation in a few days to transport the goods into the other ce and sold it there.
The female disciple finally stopped reciting after mentioned more than 150 kinds of herbs and materials.
The shopkeeper stopped writing after he wrote everything and put down his brush.
"Honorable miss, the total price of everything is 891,784 gold coins, 592 silver coins, 721 bronze coins. Please pay half in advance first, and we will pack all the goods for you. After you check everything and make sure all of our goods are authentic, you can pay the rest." The shopkeeper still patiently exined to them.
"Gold coins? Silver coin? I have more than one million credits on my card! You can deduce the payment from my card! Then you can buy several hundreds of tons of gold with those credits!" The female disciple said with a tone full of arrogance and took out a golden card from her space pouch.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned nk. She really wanted to abandon these two idiots right here and now so badly.
''Do these two idiots think they are still at the Myriad Foxes Academy or something?! Oh, My God! How could they want to buy those goods with their credits from Myriad Foxes Academy?! How the hell their brains work?!'' Tang Li Xue cursed as she almost fainted in anger.
Just like what Tang Li Xue has predicted, the shopkeeper''s face flushed red with anger, and he shouted out loud in an instant: "You little b*tch, how dare you tricking and toying with me like fool?! Guards! Break all of their limbs and throw them out right now!"
Chapter 244: Big Trouble!
Chapter 244: Big Trouble!
The several muscr guards with fierce looks approached Tang Li Xue and the two disciples from all directions without leaving them any room to escape.
All of the guards looked strong, but they were actually very weak in Tang Li Xue''s eyes. Their cultivation was only at Body Tempering Stage. ;
If Tang Li Xue wanted to kill them all, she only needs one swipe of her w to behead all of them.
Of course, Tang Li Xue would not kill anyone unreasonably.
Tang Li Xue could also easily use her [Ethereal Form] if she wanted to escape from this store, but she could not bring these two disciples with her.
"Wait a minute, everyone! Please, calm down! I..." Tang Li Xue shouted as she tried to calm down the guard and ceased them from attacking her and the two disciples.
"Impudent fools! Who do you think you are?! How dare you try to attack us?! As I expected, this store is a scam, and now you want to rob us, right?! JUST DIE, you wicked human robbers!" The male disciple shouted as if he was the right one.
"STOP IT!" Tang Li Xue yelled to stop the male disciple, but unfortunately, it was already toote for her to make a move to stop him.
The several guards already charged toward the male disciple, while the male disciple also dashed towards them.
PPPUUUUUFFF~~!!! PPPUUUUUFFF~~!!! PPPUUUUUFFF~~!!!
The male disciple cut the three guards into pieces easily with his sharp ws.
Tang Li Xue also got surrounded by the four guards, but she activated her [Ethereal Form] to get away from them and moved to stop the two disciples from killing anyone here. Unfortunately, she was still one step toote, and the two disciples already started to kill a few guards.
Even the female disciples already brandished her ws a few times and in several guards too.
Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration and despair when she saw the unsalvageable situation in front of her eyes.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHH~~!!! Mur... murder... murderer! Help!" The shopkeeper screamed in fear and horror.
He took a few steps backward, slipped, and fell down to the floor while kept trembling in fear. Tang Li Xue could see a yellow liquid wetting his pants.
"DIE! You scammer!" The male disciple shouted as he charged toward the shopkeeper with his sharp ws.
"Dammit! Stop it! That''s enough!" Tang Li Xue said and gnashed her teeth in anger.
Tang Li Xue turned off her [Ethereal Form] and grabbed the back of the male disciple''s cor with her right hand, then she ran toward the female disciple who still cruelly in the other guards.
Tang Li Xue also grabbed the back of the female disciple''s cor with her left hand and dragged the two disciples forcefully out from the pharmacy.
Her movement speed with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] was very fast. In front of the other eyes, Tang Li Xue and the two disciples seemed to instantly vanish from their sight.
The street in front of the pharmacy was packed with the crowds of people who came to check after they heard the shopkeeper''s shout, so Tang Li Xue lithely jumped onto one rooftop to another while kept dragging the two disciples.
While kept running as far as she could from that pharmacy store, Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth once again in anger and annoyance.
''Damn it! These two idiots are really... incurable anymore! How could they enter someone''s store and wanted to buy anything with the card that can only be used in Myriad Foxes Academy?! Did they think they are still in Myriad Foxes Academy! Arrrgghhh... So hateful! I am really pissed off now! Maybe I should just...''
A sliver of murderous intent appeared in the deepest part of her topaz blue eyes, but it immediately faded away in a few moments.
''Fuuuhhh... Calm down, Tang Li Xue! The parents of these two idiots should hold important positions in Myriad Foxes Academy. They can even have the gold-rank cards even when they have the mentally handicapped disease! So do not be rash and do something that can ruin your own future!''
The two disciples felt as if they were choked when their cors were pulled by Tang Li Xue.
They wanted to speak and scold Tang Li Xue to release them now, but Tang Li Xue did not give them any chance and increased her speed even more. The violent shaking and fierce wind made them choked on their own saliva and coughed violently.
With Tang Li Xue''s current speed, it only took her ten minutes or so to reach the corner of Quanhai City.
The environment here was dirty, and it seemed to be the slum where all the gangsters and hoodlums flocking together.
When Tang Li Xue arrived here and released the two disciples, several sinister-looking men looked at them with a perverted gaze.
The two disciples still squatted down and coughed violently while rubbed their own painful necks.
The sinister-looking men approached Tang Li Xue''s group with malicious intent in their minds, but the silent and obedient Yaya made the first move before Tang Li Xue did anything.
With one wave of her tiny hand, Yaya shot out several of [Air Bullets] toward all of the sinister-looking men. All the [Air Bullets] were precisely struck at their heads and knocked them out unconscious in an instant.
Thankfully, Yaya already carefully controlled her strength and reduced all of her [Air Bullets] power by a lot or all of these men''s heads would burst out like the watermelon.
Tang Li Xue patted Yaya''s head gently and whispered thanks to her softly. Yaya giggled happily and kissed Tang Li Xue''s cheek once.
After the two disciples calmed down, they started to yell angrily at Tang Li Xue.
"You useless piece of trash! Your job should be to protect and help us! Why the hell are you helping that human instead?!" The male disciple shouted angrily at Tang Li Xue.
"If you do not want to help, then get lost from our face! Do not get in our way toplete our task!" The male disciple did not stop and continued to scold Tang Li Xue on and on.
"I will surely report all you did back to the mission hall! I will make sure you get punished heavily by themter!" The female disciple added with a cold tone.
The killing intent in Tang Li Xue''s eyes grew thicker the longer she was with these two disciples. Her patience was growing thinner and thinner.
''Sigh... It seems my [Strengthen Willpower] has already reached Mastered Level. I should upgrade it immediately, or I might be identally in these two in anger sooner orter...'' Tang Li Xue thought as she sighed quietly trying to calm down her anger.
Tang Li Xue opened her system window and tapped at her [Strengthen Willpower] skill.
[Strengthen Willpower skill already reached Mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Indomitable Will with costs 10 Skill Points?]
''10 Skill Points! It''s quite expensive... but I have no choice right now. I feel like I will go crazy soon if I spend more time with these two disciples. YES!''
[Strengthen Willpower upgraded to Indomitable Will Ability!]
With this, Tang Li Xue only has 30 free Skill Points left.
After Tang Li Xue upgraded her [Strengthen Willpower] to [Indomitable Will], she felt really refreshed, and her mind felt clear from any distraction.
She still felt really angry and annoying in her heart, but her mind waspletely unaffected by all of those negative feelings.
Usually, if someone felt angry, anxious, or panic in their heart, their mind would be chaotic too and could no longer work properly anymore.
But with this [Indomitable Will], Tang Li Xue''s mind could still work at 100% or even more, and she could ponder all of her decisions carefully without any distraction from her heart.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she felt her murderous intent toward these two pampered disciples was already under her control.
Tang Li Xue raised her palm to stop these two disciples from their angry bbering.
"You know this is Quanhai City and not in the Myriad Foxes Academy, right?" Tang Li Xue asked with a monotonous unfeeling tone.
"What are you talking about?! Of course, we..." The male disciple replied while sneered at Tang Li Xue.
"Then why did you want to pay for everything you buy with your card? It was normal for that shopkeeper to get angry at you. But you even killed so many people there!" Tang Li Xue said and pressed them with her reason.
"But... But they want to..." The male disciple started to falter, but he still tried to argue back.
"I know they wanted to break our limbs, but do you think the weaklings like them really have the power to do that? We can even run away from there, and they would never be able to catch us!" Tang Li Xue shook her head while rebuked with a disappointed tone.
"What''s wrong with you?! How dare you tell us to run away?! They wanted to hurt us, so of course, we have to fight back! How could we run away from any Human Race?! We will taint the pride of Fox Race if we do that!" The female disciple clenched his teeth in anger and helped the male disciple to argue.
Tang Li Xue stopped trying to advise them. It was not because she was angry or something. She was very calm like still water right now, thanks to her new skill, the [Indomitable Will].
Tang Li Xue knew she was not very smart, but she felt her intelligence started to fall even more when she was arguing with these two.
Tang Li Xue stopped paying attention to their meaningless babbling for excuses and started to think about her next move.
''Sigh¡ I do not have any gold coin to pay for those pills'' ingredients too, but I have spirit stones produced by my martial spirit! ording to Instructor Mei Lan, the spirit stones are worthless for the beast race, but extremely valuable for all human cultivators to boost their cultivation speed.''
''But now, I bet it is already toote! As the biggest pharmacy in Quanhai City, the owner should have many strong backing and connections here. We should already be the fugitive in this Quanhai City by now.'' Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead in hesitation.
Chapter 245: Even Bigger Trouble!
Chapter 245: Even Bigger Trouble!
Tang Li Xue secretly activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability when the two disciples were still busily debating and shouting at Tang Li Xue and each other.
Tang Li Xue did not even want to know what they were talking about right now.
Her perfect copy activated the [Ethereal Form] the moment she summoned out. Her slender figure instantly turned invisible, and even the two disciples failed to notice her presence.
Tang Li Xue immediately told her perfect copy to observe the current situation on the crowded street in Quanhai City right now.
Her perfect copy could not separate too far away from Tang Li Xue, or she would be automatically unsummoned, but with her current Spirit Stat, one or two kilometers away should not be a problem.
Tang Li Xue raised her palm to stop them from talking and said: "All right! That is enough! Silence! Shut up! It is already toote to make a fuss about it now since you two have already done it. Let''s focus on our next move now!"
Tang Li Xue took out the jade inscription pen she got from Teacher Wei, a bottle of blood beast, and several stacks of nk talisman papers.
"I want you two to write all the herbs and ingredients you need to concoct all the pills on those lists now." Tang Li Xue said as she handed all the things in her grasp to the two disciples.
Although, Tang Li Xue heard everything when the female disciple mentioned everything they need to buy to the shopkeeper before, but there were more than 150 kinds of herbs and ingredients with different amounts. So, of course, Tang Li Xue could not remember all of them with only one mention.
"What?! Why should we tell you that? We can buy all of those ourselves! You only need to..." The male disciple shouted back at Tang Li Xue.
"Do you know our current situation right now? We have already be the fugitive in Quanhai City. The mayor of Quanhai City has already given the order to lock all the gates and forbid anyone to leave the city for now. The patrol guards already spread out everywhere to search for us, and they even started to distribute our pictures everywhere." Tang Li Xue exined the information she got from her perfect copy.
Actually, Tang Li Xue was caught off guard by the speed of their response.
The mayor of Quanhai City actually already started to mobilize the city guards when Tang Li Xue still thought she has at least a few hours of time before the guards making their move and will try to arrest them.
She always thought that the human civilization in this Immortal World was far inferiorpared to her previous world just like in the wuxia movie or novel.
But in reality, the civilization in the Immortal World was not at all inferior to her previous world at all. In fact, it might be even a lot more superior with specialized professions such as crafter and inscriptionist.
This was the reason for Tang Li Xue''s misperception of this world, which led to her current miscalction.
For example, Tang Li Xue thought there was no phone in this world. Therefore, she thought the information transmission in this world was still using the letter.
But this was a big mistake. Anyone could easilymunicate with other people using themunication talisman, and the function was not inferior to the mobile phone at all.
It was true that themunication talisman could only cover several hundred miles away, but it was more than enough to be used inside the city or sect.
They will only use the letter if the person they want to contact was too far away and outside the reach of theirmunication talisman.
The moment when Tang Li Xue dragged the two disciples out from the pharmacy, the shopkeeper used hismunication talisman to call the pharmacy''s true owner.
The pharmacy''s owner got really angry after heard what happened and called the mayor of Quanhai City toin while the mayor of Quanhai City quickly called the head guard and told him to handle it swiftly.
The head guard moved quickly to the pharmacy and met with the shopkeeper. He asked the shopkeeper to describe their features clearly, make the pictures based on it, then started to distribute the pictures to the patrol guards.
"So what? Why do we need to write it for you?! Don''t tell me you are nning to buy it all yourself and bring it back to the Myriad Foxes Academy just so you can steal our credit?! No way! We must buy it together!" The male disciple jumped backward and shouted at Tang Li Xue with a stance full of vignce.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and thought: ''I do not even know what to call you anymore... Stupid or Idiot? If I really want to steal your credit, I can easily rob it from you AFTER you bought all of it. Also, my mission is to protect you two to buy those things, not to bring those things back to Pharmacy and Alchemist Association!''
Tang Li Xue tried to exin and persuade the two disciples several times, but they still refused to tell Tang Li Xue about it. They even threatened Tang Li Xue that they will abort their assignment and go back to Myriad Foxes Academy then me everything on Tang Li Xue.
Finally, Tang Li Xue snapped out and summoned her perfect copy back. Her invisible perfect copy approached the two disciples from behind before turning off her [Ethereal Form].
She raised her tiny fist and...
BAAAAAAANGGG~!!! BAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
Knocked out the two disciples!
Her fist struck the two disciples'' head heavily from behind for the third time and made them fell unconscious again. Both of them fell down and nted their faces onto the dirty slum ground.
The thick blood flowed out profusely from their wounded heads, but Tang Li Xue did not even care about them and threw them into her medium-rank space pouch.
Tang Li Xue started to search for something from her extreme-rank space pouch for a few moments before pulling out a piece of paper.
There were twelve kinds of pills written on the paper. She remembered it all in a few moments before taking out the spatial ring from her space pouch.
Currently, Tang Li Xue did not know any herbs or ingredients to make any of these pills, but it did not mean Tang Li Xue could not learn it.
This spatial ring was something she stole from the renowned alchemist from Asura Demon Sect before.
There were many books about alchemists, forms, and recipes inside this spatial ring.
At first, Tang Li Xue did not have any interest in alchemist or concocting the pill before, so she never touched this spatial ring anymore.
But now, she was forced to read these books one by one to find the form of these twelve pills.
Tang Li Xue did not want to waste much of her time, so she used her precious deity coins to learn the books one by one.
The price to learn each of these books was not expensive only around 3-10 deity coins, but there were hundreds of books in the spatial ring, while she only had a little over 4,000 deity coins in her system.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in hatred and anger while thinking: ''Damn it! If these two idiots just tell me all the ingredients and herbs needed to make these pills, then I do not need to waste my deity coins like this!''
After she almost spent 2,000 deity coins toprehend hundreds of books, she was assaulted by severe headache for a few moments as arge amount of knowledge about alchemist flooded into her mind.
Herbs¡
Ingredients¡
Pill concocting techniques¡
Fire controlling techniques¡
The countless basic pill forms¡
And so on.
¡..
Ding!
[You have gained the basic knowledge and insight about the Alchemist Sub-Profession.]
[The Alchemist level is set to level 1 (beginner).]
''What?!'' Tang Li Xue widened her eyes and shock.
She anxiously opened her window status in her system to check her current sub-profession.
[Sub-Profession: Inscriptionist (Level 4: Apprentice), Alchemist (Level 1: Beginner)]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw her Inscriptionist sub-profession was still there and not reced by Alchemist.
''So now I am an Inscriptionist and also an Alchemist?! Two sub-professions in a few months after I reincarnated into this world! Isn''t that mean I am a super genius right now?!'' Tang Li Xue giggled happily.
She looked at the paper with the list of pills written in it, and her smile curved even wider.
Not only she has all the knowledge about ingredients and herbs needed to concoct these pills, she even has the knowledge about how to concoct all of the pills.
Of course, having the knowledge to concoct it and concoct it for real were two separate matters.
It was the same as having the knowledge about the runes and inscribed it onto the nk talisman.
Without any experience or divine treasure like her golden [Inscription Pen] to help her, who knows how small her chance to sessfully concoct the pill.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form], and her body turned invisible. Her perfect copy nodded to her and also did the same.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy shared the same mind, so her perfect copy also knew what they need to buy right now.
Tang Li Xue decided to separate the list of the things she needs to buy into two.
She and her perfect copy will go to two different pharmacy stores to reduce the risk of being caught by the patrol guards.
They could alsoplete their job twice faster with half effort this way.
Unfortunately, fate did not allow her to have it her way.
When Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were heading toward the two different pharmacy stores at the corner of Quanhai City, the glutton egg in Tang Li Xue system inventory gave a strange reaction, which triggered the system''s alert notification.
Ding!
[Warning! Detecting the sign of life in the Companion Egg is getting stronger!]
[Companion Egg will hatch in 15 minutes!]
[Warning! System inventory cannot hold any living creature!]
[Forcefully ejecting out the Companion Egg from the system inventory¡]
[10¡ 9¡ 8...]
''What the heck!'' Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw and jumped backward in shock.
Chapter 246: Promise!
Chapter 246: Promise!
The image when the glutton egg went out of control in the Auction House shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
Thankfully, all the foxes in the Myriad Foxes Academy were quite strong. With their sharp instinct beasts, all of them retreated out from the Auction House before the miasma and pressure could kill any of them.
The weakest foxes in Myriad Foxes Academy were already at [Umon] grade, but there was only a handful of them. The majority of the foxes in Myriad Foxes Academy were already at [Rare] grade.
But Tang Li Xue was currently in the crowded part of the city where the majority of them were only civilians without any cultivation.
If something like in the Auction House happened again this time here...
Tang Li Xue''s body shuddered violently. She did not even dare to imagine what will happen to these humanster.
Tang Li Xue''s heart was extremely anxious and panicking, but her mind was still strangely clear and calm thanks to her [Indomitable Will]''s skill.
She swiftly took the [Amulet of Teleportation] she got from Teacher Li Wei previously from her space pouch and instantly activated it.
Her invisible figure teleported to the nearby stone wall, which stood tall to protect the Quanhai city from any external threat.
''Luckily, I went to the pharmacy at the corner of Quanhai City, so I am not that far away from outside the city! But I am still too slow at this speed! Yaya~!!!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and called Yaya in her mind.
Yaya still sat quietly on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head. She did not know Tang Li Xue''s current predicament, but she could feel Tang Li Xue''s anxiousness from their mental connection.
Yaya''s expression turned solemn too, and she immediately nodded her head when she heard Tang Li Xue''s call.
Yaya''s tiny body turned into a sh of green light and entered Tang Li Xue''s forehead.
[Divine Possession Mode]!
The four pairs of crystal-like fairy wings sprouted from Tang Li Xue''s back.
Her topaz blue eyes changed its color into emerald green, and a glittering tiara appeared on the top of her head.
The tip of her silky smooth silver hair was also dyed with green color right now.
Tang Li Xue pped her four pairs of fairy wings behind her back and activated the [Fast Flight] skill.
Tang Li Xue also immediately used Yaya''s new movement skill, [Breezing Step], which the upgraded version of the [Gale Step], but it was several times faster than before.
Combined with her own [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], her current speed already far surpassed her previous maximum speed by several folds!
With her [Ethereal Form], the solid stone wall in front of her would never be able to obstruct her.
Her transparent figure easily passed through the solid stone wall.
Tang Li Xue flew as fast as she could, and as far as she could from Quanhai City.
In a blink of an eye, Tang Li Xue already several hundred miles from Quanhai City, but she still did not stop and kept flying farther and farther.
3... 2... 1...
BBBAAAAAAAAANGGG~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Companion Egg] ejected out from her system inventory. If anyone saw what happen right now, it looked as if an egg appeared out of thin air.
Tang Li Xue was currently still flying at high-speed in the sky, so the [Companion Egg] instantly plunged down after it appeared.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and quickly took a sharp downward dive. She managed to catch the [Companion Egg] right before it could hit the ground.
But when Tang Li Xue caught the [Companion Egg] in her arms, something strange happened.
All of the ck runes on the glutton egg''s surface became even more vibrant and clearer. The ck runes blended with the glutton egg, and it started to shine with the ominous ck light.
The grasses and bushes below the [Companion Egg] started to wither and dried in an instant, and this strange phenomenon started to spread around with an unimaginable speed.
The forest around Tang Li Xue already started to withered too!
Tang Li Xue was stunned silly when she saw what happened, but she immediately realized what happens after she sensed the vitality from the [Companion Egg] was growing stronger.
The glutton egg was actually devouring the vitality and life force from all the creatures around it since she needs a lot of energy toplete its hatching process!
All the trees, the nts, the beasts, and the humans in the forest started to wilt and died in only a few seconds.
The power of the glutton egg began to grow stronger and stronger after it devoured the life force and vitality from countless living beings! So the area of its devouring power also got wider and wider!
1 mile... 3 miles... 5 miles... 8 miles... and it still kept growing wider and wider as if the glutton egg wanted to devour the entire life force and vitality in this continent!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue waspletely unaffected by the glutton egg''s devouring power or she would certainly already be a drying corpse like the other creatures around her.
It was a horrible scene to see.
Everything around her turnedpletely deste, devoid of any life in only a few seconds.
Even Tang Li Xue started to feel extreme fear and horror creeping in her mind and heart when the evil aura from the egg was growing stronger and stronger.
''Damn it! This cannot go on! Who knows how many lives would die if this continued like this!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth as cold sweat damped her forehead and clothes.
Tang Li Xue hugged the glutton egg tightly and flying upward with her full speed.
Her n was simple. There should be fewer living beings in the sky so she only needs to fly as high as she could to minimize the living creatures that will be devoured by the glutton egg.
Tang Li Xue''s mind spun faster as she pondered her doubts and choices carefully.
''Maybe I am making a big mistake...''
''What if this egg is an evil spawn?''
''What if I cannot control the creature in this eggter?''
''What if it devoured everything in this world and killed all the living beings in the future? Doesn''t that mean it was my mistake that brought this world to annihtion?''
''Should I... just destroy this evil egg right now before the vile creatures inside this egg could be born into this world?''
Tang Li Xue''s eyes glinted coldly as the savageness and cruelty shed in the deepest part of her eyes.
The evil thought started to appear in her mind along with countless excuses.
''Yes, you should do Tang Li Xue! The evil creature inside this egg would never bring any good to you or this world! Look... Even its aura is so terrifying and wicked! Punish it for its wickedness!''
''You have the OP system anyway! You definitely can get more eggs in the future! Phoenix, Dragon, Pixiu, Qilin... you can get whatever you wantter! All of them are more powerful and tamepared to this egg! So you don''t need to hesitate! Destroy it now!''
''This egg is already so evil when it is still an egg. Do you think it won''t devour its owner after it hatched?! You are only a weak fox right now! What can you do if it wants to devour youter?! Destroy it now so it will not be a threat to youter!''
''You already have Yaya and Phoenix of Pride now. Can you even feed the glutton creature in that egg once it hatches? The glutton creature inside that egg would certainly be eating far more than Yaya and Phoenix of Prideter. Can you even support its growth? Destroy it now before it can be your burden!''
Tang Li Xue stopped flying upward, and her eyes stared coldly at the egg in her embrace. She raised her sharp w, and the deep blue me started to imbue her sharp w with its color.
Just when her sharp w almost touched the egg, the image of Yaya and Phoenix of Pride was shed in her mind.
She met with both of them by coincidence.
She felt really unlucky when she met with those two.
Burned by deep blue me until almost turned into ashes...
Chased by the scary adult wind elemental and almost got killed by her...
But now... both of them were her only close family in this lonely world filled with danger. She could not even imagine the day without them.
Tang Li Xue bit her pink lips until it bled to clear her mind and she took a deep breath...
"SSSHHHHUUUUUUUUUUTTT UUUUUUPPPPP~~!!!" Tang Li Xue shouted as loud as she could to dispel all of the evil thoughts inside her mind.
Tang Li Xue did not realize these evil thoughts were all appearing because the intense evil aura from the glutton egg also started to affect her feeling.
Although the intense evil aura could not hurt Tang Li Xue as the glutton egg''s master, but it still could amplify her negative emotion in her heart hundreds of times.
Thankfully, her [Indomitable Will] once again helped her and prevented her negative emotions from affecting her mind, then impaired her decision-making ability.
"Punish? Destroy? Burden? How could you think something like that?! The child inside this egg is innocent! It did not do it because it likes it! It did it because it was hungry! So... how could I kill it because of such pitiful reasons like that?!" Tang Li Xue shook her head as if she was disappointed in herself.
"If I really do that... doesn''t it mean I am the same as all the irresponsible mothers who abort or kill their babies because they were poor and could not support their children?" Tang Li Xue said with a tone full of resolute.
Abandoned by her father with all the heavy debt in her previous life has left a deep incurable mental scar in Tang Li Xue''s heart. For her, all the parents who abort or abandon their babies or children were no different than her scummy father.
"I admit that I am not a good master... If I am a good master, I would never let you ate everything from the auction house forcefully for free. I will also never let you devour vitality and life force from any innocent creatures before you hatched like this. I know¡ As your master, I should provide you with everything you need." Tang Li Xue admitted all of her mistakes to the glutton egg.
"I cannot give everything you wanted before and maybe so in the future too. But at the very least, I can promise that I will never betray you if you never betray me first. I will never try to kill you as long as you never try to kill me either. I don''t care even if the entire world bes your enemies, I will do my best to protect you." Tang Li Xue swore with all of her heart.
The [Companion Egg] in Tang Li Xue''s embrace shuddered a bit as if it was touched by Tang Li Xue''s words.
"Now, as your master, I will give all of my resources to you so you do not need to take any innocent lives anymore!" Tang Li Xue said to the glutton egg as she took several mid-tier spirit stones from her space pouch and pushed it to the glutton egg.
These mid-tier spirit stones were produced by Tang Li Xue''s martial soul using its [Refining Spirit Energy] unique skill. Unfortunately, her [Golden Winged Serpent] martial soul could only produce one mid-tier spirit stone every ten days, so each of these mid-tier spirit stone was really precious for Tang Li Xue''s cultivation.
Tang Li Xue even decided to use the low-tier spirit stones for her cultivationtely and save these several mid-tier spirit stones for herself to use after she entered Acupuncture Opening Stageter.
But now, she decided to give all of her treasured mid-tier spirit stones to the glutton egg instead!
The glutton egg greedily gobbled the abundant energy from the mid-tier spirit stones. Each of the mid-tier spirit stones was bigger than Tang Li Xue''s fist, but it shrunk rapidly, and now, each of them was only as big as golf balls.
Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡
The tiny crack started to appear on the glutton egg''s surface. That tiny crack started to spread around swiftly to the entire egg''s surface.
Chapter 247: The Glutton Egg Has Hatched!
Chapter 247: The Glutton Egg Has Hatched!
It did not take long for the glutton egg to devour all of Tang Li Xue''s mid-tier spirit stones, Tang Li Xue started to take out her low-tier spirit stones and let the glutton egg absorb it.
There were hundreds of low-tier spirit stones in Tang Li Xue''s space pouch, Tang Li Xue took out fifty of it at once, but the glutton egg devoured it all in only a blink of an eye.
Tang Li Xue felt her heart was bleeding every time she took out her precious spirit stones, which she saved up so carefully until now.
She did not even dare to use it sovishly to increase her cultivation every day and set it aside some of it for her saving.
Every time she saved her spirit stones, she already started to excitedly imagine what kind of godly treasure she could buy with these many spirit stones.
There was no need for her to buy a pricelessplete divine treasure.
Buying a tiny shard of super-powerful divine treasure was already more than enough for her since she could restore it using the [Restoration Elixir] in her system inventory just like what she had already done to her [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] before!
She really hoped to get a divine weapon this time. Something powerful enough to st all of her enemies into dust like Xuanyuan Sword, Hou Yi''s Bow, and so on¡
But now, she spent all of it to feed this glutton egg¡
She felt as if a child who saved her money in a piggy bank diligently every day to buy her favorite toy but finally forced to use all of her savings to feed her pet right now.
But Tang Li Xue still gritted her teeth and took out herst batch of low-tier spirit stones. Her eyes were glittering brightly with determination without any slightest hesitation.
"You little glutton, just how many more you want to eat?! I already have no more to give you right now, but you still have not hatched yet?!" Tang Li Xue murmured while searched for something to feed the glutton in her space pouch.
In the end, she took out all the talismans in her space pouch along with all the bottles contained the beast''s blood.
The glutton egg devoured all of it too indiscriminately in only a few moments, and all the cracks on its surface spread even more!
Tang Li Xue even gave her [Amulet of Teleportation] to glutton egg, and the amulet was consumed in only less than a second.
Tang Li Xue tried to take something out again from her space pouch, but there were only a jade inscription pen and many nk talisman papers in Tang Li Xue''s space pouch.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth again and took out herst [Level Up Pill] from her system inventory, then gave it to the glutton egg.
WWWEEEEEEEENNNGGG~!!!
All the ck runes blended into the egg, and the blinding ck light shone from the glutton egg''s surface.
No¡ Rather than ''shone'' the ck light from the glutton egg seemed to devour all the surrounding lights instead and made the scenery around them turned darker and darker.
"Is it still not enough?!" Tang Li Xue said in exasperation.
She took out a few items from her system inventory such as [Greater Lucky Sticker], [Restoration Elixir], [2 Times EXP Card], and so on, but the glutton egg did not seem to want any of it.
"You damn picky eater¡ Sigh¡ Fine! If you do not want any of those then just eat my energy!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and put her palm at the glutton egg''s surface.
She started to inject her own vitality energy, Qi, and spirit energy into the glutton egg.
''Sigh¡ Oh, little egg... Oh, little egg¡ You may have an intense evil aura, but I would never believe that there is any creature born to be evil.''
Unlike before, I will never expect you to be extremely powerful or OP in the future.''
''I also do not wish for you to always fight by my side and facing danger with me like Yaya and Phoenix of Prideter.''
''I only hope you¡ to grow healthy and full of love.''
''May your life will always be blessed with happiness andughter without any speck of pain and sorrow.''
When Tang Li Xue felt all of her energy almost dried, she immediately used her [Damage Transfer] to transfer her fatigue to her perfect copy and took all of her perfect copy''s energy reserve.
Tang Li Xue''s tiredness immediately vanished, and she was filled back with energy, but she transferred her restored vitality energy, Qi, and spirit energy to the glutton egg without stopping.
It did not take too long for Tang Li Xue''s entire energies to run out again, but when that happens¡ two kinds of different elemental energies were flowing into her body.
"Where do these energiese from?! Ahahaha¡ I understand¡ so it''s you guys!" Tang Li Xue felt baffled for a moment, but she immediately realized the source of these energies.
It wasing from Yaya and Phoenix of Pride!
"Thank you¡" Tang Li Xue murmured with a gentle smile on her face as warmness filled her heart.
Crack????? Crack¡ Crack¡ BBBAAAAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
The glutton egg finally shattered after Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Phoenix of Pride almost exhausted their entire energies and stamina!
But all of the falling egg crusts were immediately devoured in an instant by the newly born creature.
Tang Li Xue could not see the newly born creature clearly because of the blinding ck light from the egg crusts, but she finally could see its form clearly when the ck light subsided, and the surrounding scene returned to normal.
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes and dropped her jaw in shock for a few moments.
She squinted her eyes and rubbed her eyes several times to make sure she did not see it wrong.
Because of an intense evil aura from the egg, Tang Li Xue expected something like an evil dragon or something even more disgusting like a gue queen bug, but the reality was actually far from all of those.
It was actually an extremely cute little kitten!
Its current size was even slightly smaller than the previously newborn Yaya.
Its ck furs were so smooth and soft, extremelyfortable to touch.
It also has a pair of tiny sheep horns on the top of its head, a pair of tiny undeveloped pair of bat-like wings on its back, and a pointed tail like a devil''s tail.
This little kitten even has the third eye on its furry forehead. The color of its third eye was entirely ck like obsidian, but its iris was crimson red like the color of blood.
Its pair of eyes were still closed tightly, but it seems to use its third eye to see everything.
The little ck kitten looked around full of curiosity for a few moments before it was staring at Tang Li Xue.
"Nya~~!" The little ck kitten gently licked Tang Li Xue''s palm.
Tang Li Xue woke up from her daze when she felt the ticklish sensation from her palm and murmured: "C¡ Cute! Uwaaaahhhh! So cute! How could something this cute exist in this world?!"
Tang Li Xue giggled happily as she stared at the little ck kitten full of adoration. She held the little kitten with both of his hands and raised it highly before hugging it gently.
Tang Li Xue yed with it and even kissed it a few times before reluctantly stopped and opened her system log.
Ding!
[Congrattion! You got the secondpanion pet!]
[Yourpanion pet''s space has reached the maximum! You need to level up and evolve more to increase yourpanion pet''s space.]
[Do you want to give it a new name? Yes/No]
"So I can only have 2panion pets for now?! Luckily, the system did not count the Phoenix of Pride as one of mypanion pets." Tang Li Xuemented while kept patting the little ck kitten in her embrace.
Tang Li Xue activated her [All-Knowing Eyes] to see the little ck kitten''s status data, but strangely, she failed to see anything.
"This is really strange¡ I can see Yaya''s status clearly after she hatched from the egg before. Why can''t I see the status of this little kitten now?" Tang Li Xue murmured and frowned a bit.
Tang Li Xue decided to open her status window from the system, and checked the little kitten''s status from her pet status window.
--------------------------------------------------------
[Species: Taotie]
[Grade: ?????? (Cub)]
[Type: ?????]
[Level 1]
Divine Ability: (Undefined)
[HP: ???????/???????]
Strength: ??????
Agility: ??????
Toughness: ??????
Spirit: ??????
[Skill: (Undefined)]
--------------------------------------------------------
The corner of Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched in annoyance when she saw that many questions in the little kitten''s status window.
Tang Li Xue raised the little ck kitten and brought it closer to her face.
"So¡ uh¡ I am really confused by this useless data! Are you strong or not?" Tang Li Xue looked at the little ck kitten and tried to ask it.
"Nyaaaa~!" The little ck kitten jumped out from Tang Li Xue''s grasp andnded gracefully on her shoulder, then licked her cheek a few times.
Tang Li Xue was a little bit surprised that this weak-looking tiny ck kitten could easily escape from her grasp like that.
"Ahahaha¡ That''s tickles! All right, who cares about stats and ability! You are very cute, and I really like it. That''s already more than enough." Tang Li Xue said as she smiled happily.
Suddenly, she felt really stupid for being overly worried about evil stuff and destroying the world before.
"Its species is a Taotie¡ It sounds quite familiar. Is it one of the feline races or breeds like Scottish Fold or Persian?" Tang Li Xue murmured as she tried to remember the familiar name and used her slender finger to tap her chin.
"Ah, let''s forget it since I cannot remember it now anyway! I will try to find some information about it from [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide]ter. The most important thing now is¡ your name! What kind of name should I give you?" Tang Li Xue pondered carefully.
"How about ''Little Glutton'' since you are such a big glutton? Hm¡ but it doesn''t sound nice. Then Little ck ( Xiao Hei)¡ why do I feel like I have already used this name before somewhere? Wait, what about Little Kitty?! It sounds good, right?!" Tang Li Xue''s eyes brightened.
"Nyaaaa~!!!" The little kitten quickly shook its head furiously.
"Eh? You can understand my words? Ah right, our minds have already connected so of course, you can understand me. You are quite picky, don''t you?!" Tang Li Xue felt really surprised by how high this little kitten''s intelligence when it was just came out from its egg.
"Little Baby?"
The little kitten shook its head furiously again¡
"Little Meow?"
The little kitten shook its head furiously again¡
"Little Fluffy?"
The little kitten shook its head even more furiously¡
¡..
¡
.
"Okay, I know what you want now. You want a cool bad-ass name instead of a cute name, right? Then how about ''Loki''¡ Cool and bad-ass name, right?" Tang Li Xue asked with a proud expression.
The little ck kitten tilted its tiny head in confusion.
"That is the name of one of the Norse Mythology Gods in my previous world. Loki is the Trickster God, known for being neither fully good nor evil, but he is really smart and powerful." Tang Li Xue exined.
The little ck kitten hesitated for a few moments before nodded its tiny head in reluctance.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when the little ck kitten finally agreed to the name she gave to it.
Ding!
[Did you name yourpanion pet ''Loki''?]
''Yes!''
[Companion pet''s true name confirmed! Initializing connection with host¡ Connection Bridge established!]
After Tang Li Xue received the sess notification from her system, she could feel her connection with Little Loki became extremely close.
''Wait¡ so our mind connection was only established just now? Then how could Little Loki understand my words before?'' Tang Li Xue held Little Loki and stared at it skeptically.
"Nyaaaa~!" Litte Loki cutely meowed and gently licked at Tang Li Xue''s hand.
''Oh, well¡ who cares about that as long as it''s cute!'' Tang Li Xueughed happily and embraced Little Loki.
But when she wanted to fly back to Quanhai City¡
"HALT!" A majestic voice stopped Tang Li Xue from moving.
''Damn it! I forgot a lot of things because I was too focused on hatching Little Loki before! With all of themotions, the nearby cultivators would definitelye here to check if any precious treasure was born or appeared here!'' Tang Li Xue''s mind started working fast when she heard that voice calling for her.
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability managed to sense more than twenty cultivators came toward her right now, but only six of them worthy enough of her attention.
''I should get away from here as fast as possible before they catch me!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she activated her [Ethereal Form] again.
Chapter 248: Pursuit!
Chapter 248: Pursuit!
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure turned invisible. She took a peek at her [Divine Possession] mode''s duration in her system log, and it was only less than eight minutes left.
But she did not have much energy left and almostpletely exhausted after she gave almost all of her energy to help Little Loki hatch before.
''This should be more than enough for me to escape from these people!'' Tang Li Xue thought.
Yet Tang Li Xue clearly still far too underestimated all of these human cultivators.
How could Tang Li Xue think that she can escape from here so easily under the noses of these human cultivators?!
"Do you not hear me?! I SAID HALT!!!" The old man with the long white beard shouted louder.
That old man wore an elegant-looking purple robe and clothes. He also rode on the top of an azure sword.
There was a jade insignia hanging on his waist, and ''Immortal Sword Sect''s Elder'' was written on the jade insignia surface.
There were five disciples, one old granny, and one middle-aged bald man riding on the flying swords too and followed closely behind the old man.
Three Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators!
The old man angrily unsheathed the ancient sword on his waist and brandished it toward where Tang Li Xue had vanished before.
The lightning pir shot out from the old man''s ancient sword, and it split up into countless lightning bolts!
''Holysh*t!'' Tang Li Xue screamed in shock in her mind as her heart almost jumped out from her throat.
With Tang Li Xue''s speed in [Divine Possession] mode, she was already flying a few tens of meters away in a blink of an eye from the old man and his people, but it was still impossible for her to outrun this rain of lightning bolts!
It was clear that the old man did not n to kill Tang Li Xue since these lightning bolts were not strong enough to even hurt the current Tang Li Xue.
The old man should have nned to catch Tang Li Xue first and forced her to talkter.
If even one spark of these lightning bolts managed to hit the current invisible Tang Li Xue, her [Ethereal Form] would be automatically canceled, and she would be visible again in front of the other''s eyes.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as her expression turned really solemn, and she hugged Little Loki tighter in her embrace.
Several of Tang Li Xue''s skills such as [Concentration], [Decrease Reaction-Time], [Focus], [Indomitable Will], [Sharpen Mind], [Calction], [Prediction], and [Intelligence Enhancement] pushed her brain to work surpassing the limit, made her felt stinging terrible headache right at this moment, but she did not care at all.
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure started to flickering right and left to dodge the several lightning bolts.
She even bent her body several times flexibly as if she was dancing in the middle of lightning bolts'' rain!
But she still realized that her movement speed was not fast enough to dodge the iing dense lightning bolts.
[Breezing Step]!
Tang Li Xue''s movement speed was already very fast actually because of Yaya''s passive divine ability, [Extreme Speed], but her current movement speed increased even more by several times!
However, Tang Li Xue immediately realized that all of her senses were not quick enough to detect where the lightning woulde...
''Not yet!'' Tang Li Xue''s eyes shone brighter with firm determination.
Tang Li Xue dumped all of her 174 free Stat Points to her Spirit Stat, increasing her Spirit Stat from 780 to 954 in an instant!
Tang Li Xue felt the incredible headache assaulting her mind as if her brain was going to blow up, but she gritted her teeth and forced herself to endure it. Thankfully, her [Indomitable Will] helped her a lot to maintain her calmness and clear mind.
Then Tang Li Xue pushed her [Extrasensory Perception] to work at maximum while activated one more of Yaya''s divine abilities!
[Wind God''s Eyes]!
Tang Li Xue''s emerald green eyes were glittering brightly like a pair of green stars as she started to see the movement of lightning bolts slowed down a bit, and she could faintly see where it wouldndter.
BAAAM~!!! BAAAM~!!! BAAAM~!!! BAAAM~!!! BAAAM~!!!
Tang Li Xue currently pushed all of her abilities past her limit. She momentarily has the extremely high speed, highly flexible body to avoid any attacks, and the connected super senses could see everything around her so clearly along with what will happen in a few secondster!
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, some lightning bolts started to crash onto each other several times and bouncing everywhere unpredictably.
The power of bouncing lightning bolts was decreasing a lot, and it would not be able to even scratch Tang Li Xue, but it was more than enough to cancel Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] even if it only managed to touch the corner of her sleeve.
When several sparks of lightning bolts almost touched Tang Li Xue... Her flexible slender figure started to reflexively move in such strange and unnatural ways.
[Auto Correction]!
Then she spun several times in mid-air while twisted her slender waist...
BAAAM~!!! BAAAM~!!! BAAAM~!!! BZZZT... BZZZT...
All the bouncing lightning bolts missed her by a few millimeters!
She felt really dizzy and stopped moving for a moment, but she was already out from the rain of lightning bolts'' area right now.
Tang Li Xue bit her pink lips to clear her mind, and hastily checked Little Loki''s current condition in her embrace.
"Nya~!" Little Loki felt a bit suffocated, so it struggled out a bit in Tang Li Xue''s embrace to take a few breaths.
Tang Li Xue let out a sigh of relief after she made sure that Little Loki was fine, but she shuddered a bit when she thought about what she had done just now.
Tang Li Xue could not help but feel amazed at herself.
''Woah, I... I really managed to dodge all of those lightning bolts?! Oh, My God! Just how amazing I am?!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she clicked her tongue in admiration.
Tang Li Xue still felt an unbearable headache stinging her mind, but she forced herself to continue her flight and tried to find a safe ce for her to rest.
.....
The old man with the ancient sword in his hand frowned deeply while looking at his surroundings carefully, but he failed to find the ck-cloaked person he was trying to catch before.
"Elder Shang, where is that person? Is that person using a space treasure or talisman to escape from here?" The middle-aged bald man tried to ask.
"That is impossible. If that cloaked person used space treasure to escape, there should be some space fluctuations here, and I can use that to track it back to the cloaked person. But I do not feel any space fluctuation here." The old granny expressed her opinion.
"This is really strange... Since there is no space fluctuation, that person should not be far from here. Then how could that person avoid all of my lightning marks?!" The old man called Elder Shang said with a tone full of disbelief.
Elder Shang''s previous attacks were not to hurt his targets but to leave a mark on his targets so he can track them easily.
Among all the elementals, lightning was undisputedly the fastest. Although lightning elemental was not as flexible and unpredictable as the wind elemental, but no one could dodge it once the lightning already locked at them.
The way to dodge the attack from lightning elemental was to predict the direction of the attack before it shot out and dodged it right at the moment it shot out.
That was the reason why Elder Shang would never believe that there was someone who could dodge his rain of lightning bolts here.
Of course, Tang Li Xue could only sessfully do that, thanks to the overpowered divine abilities and several useful skills of Yaya and herself.
The sulking Elder Shang turned around and asked the old granny: "Can you track that cloaked person?"
The old granny thought for a few moments before taking out a golden Bagua Compass from her spatial ring.
The old granny was grinning happily after she checked the golden Bagua Compass in her grasp.
"It seems there are some slivers of evil aura left on that cloaked person. We did not choose the wrong target at all. What happened here should have some connections with that cloaked person. With thispass, I can track that cloaked person by following the evil aura on that person''s body." The old granny said to Elder Shang with an excited tone.
"Good! Lead the way! Let''s go to catch that person now before that person is going too far away from us!" Elder Shang nodded to the old granny and told her to use her golden Bagua Compass to chase after Tang Li Xue''s track.
...
...
.
The skies above have turned dark as the sun went down the horizon.
Tang Li Xue currently used her remaining energy to fly as fast and far away as she could from those people from Immortal Sword Sect.
However, Tang Li Xue decided to not heading back to Quanhai City for now.
If she spent all of her energy and the duration of her [Divine Possession] mode has expired, it would mean she would fall unconscious in exhaustion. While her perfect copy and Yaya would need to face the violent bacsh after using the [Divine Possession] mode at that time.
Tang Li Xue would bepletely defenseless!
If she went back to Quanhai City in that defenseless condition like that, no one could tell her fate if she met a molester, robber, or raperter.
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to fly up to the mountain and dug a deep cave there.
She did not forget to cover the deep cave''s entrance carefully so no one could tell that there was a cave here even if someone identally passed in front of this cave.
"I am really tired to death now... Sigh... Let''s sleep together, Little Loki!" Tang Li Xue said as she smiled and kissed Little Loki gently.
When [Divine Possession] duration was over, and the bacsh started to attack her, Tang Li Xue immediately used [Damage Transfer] and transferred the bacsh to her perfect copy.
The suffering Yaya was currently resting in her system pet storage, so she could recover faster from the bacsh there.
The extreme exhaustion and terrible headache made Tang Li Xue''s consciousness turned blurrier and blurrier. She hugged Little Loki in her embrace and fell asleep in an instant.
Tang Li Xue did not know that the group of people from Immortal Sword Sect have a way to track her, and they already almost reached the mountain where she was sleeping right now!
In fact, the old granny''s golden Bagua Compass did not track Tang Li Xue, but the little ck kitten in her embrace, but it did not make any difference since they were in the same ce right now.
Chapter 249: (Spoiler Title At the Bottom of This Chapter)
Chapter 249: (Spoiler Title At the Bottom of This Chapter)
Under the darkness of night and the cover of thick snow, the deep cave that Tang Li Xue dug was hidden so well.
It was impossible for anyone or any creature to identally found it without any specialized skills or tools.
Even with the help of old granny''s golden Bagua Compass, which could track the evil aura from Little Loki, the group of people from the Immortal Sword Sect still have a hard time to find Tang Li Xue''s cave.
Although the people from the Immortal Sword Sect were moving quite slow to track Tang Li Xue''s cave, but there was no doubt that they were approaching step by step closer to her hiding ce.
"Elder Shang, what should we do if what caused the previous horrible incident was from the newborn evil treasure or newborn evil creature? Should we keep it or destroy it?" The middle-aged bald man asked the old man called Elder Shang with a curious tone.
"Hahaha... Good or evil is determined by the one who wields it! It does not matter if it is an evil treasure, an evil being, or something else as long as we can use it, then why do we not take it?! From the phenomenon it shown before, the power of that thing is certainly far from weak!" Elder Shang said while squinted his eyes.
"That''s right. It would be best for our Immortal Sword Sect if we held it rather than the people from the other sects, especially those evil spawns from demon sects!" The old granny added while she looked at her golden Bagua Compass and kept leading in front of them.
Even though they were saying something like that, but a trace of undisguisable greed shed in the deepest part of their eyes.
It was almost certain that Tang Li Xue''s fate would be more than just miserable if these people managed to find her hiding ce.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue was still very tired physically and mentally, so she was still currently fast asleep very deeply.
But the sleeping tiny ck kitten in Tang Li Xue''s warm embrace suddenly opened its third eye.
Its third eye was shining with the eerie blood-red light inside the dark cave.
The tiny ck kitten, Little Loki slipped out easily from Tang Li Xue''s tight embrace.
"Nya~~!" Little Loki cutely licked the sleeping Tang Li Xue''s cheek a few times before walked toward the covered cave entrance.
Little Loki''s tiny furry figurepletely vanished, and it teleported out of the cave in an instant.
If Tang Li Xue could see what Little Loki did just now, she would certainly realize that the ability it used was identical with the effect of her [Amulet of Teleportation] which she got previously from Teacher Li Wei, but that amulet should have been eaten by Little Loki already before hatching.
Little Loki did not do anything nor going anywhere.
It only sat patiently in front of Tang Li Xue''s covered cave entrance without doing anything.
Not long after that, the group of people from Immortal Sword Sect finally arrived in front of Tang Li Xue''s covered cave entrance after followed the direction given by the old granny''s golden Bagua Compass.
"Eh? There is a little kitten here? What is this little kitten doing here?" One of the female disciples from Immortal Sword Sect said as she tried to approach Little Loki.
"Halt! Watch out, everyone! This little one is not simple at all! Look! It has a pair of horns and a pair of demon wings! This little one should be the cub of the evil beast!" Elder Shang quickly raised his hand to stop the female disciple froming near Little Loki and warned all of his disciples with a stern tone.
Then right at this moment...
A pair of eyes other than Little Loki''s third eye...
A pair of eyes which Little Loki always closed so tightly...
Slowly began to open!
Little Loki''s pair of eyes werepletely dark, darker than even the night without any moonlight.
It looked very eerie and horrible even these people from Immortal Sword Sect who already fought with many demons and ghosts before felt shocked and spooked by it.
They subconsciously wanted to take a step back to keep their distance from this eerie little kitten, but they immediately felt something even more dreadful happened to their bodies right now!
They could not move their bodies at all!
Even the three Foundation Establishment Stage Experts from the Immortal Sword Sect also were no exception!
All of them also could not move even a single part of their bodies at all!
They could not even move any of their fingers!
Again... If Tang Li Xue could see this scene right now, she would immediately realize that this effect used by Little Loki was identical with [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] from the ancient stone disc which she got from the second trial of the entry trial to Myriad Foxes Academy before.
But the fate of this ancient stone disc was the same as the [Amulet of Teleportation], all of them were devoured by Little Loki before hatching.
The effect of the [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] was to seal all the senses and movement of all living beings inside it.
But Little Loki purposely did not seal all of these people''s senses.
Little Loki only sealed their ability to speak, so they could not shouting or screaming.
It was clear Little Loki did not want these people to wake the sleeping Tang Li Xue.
However, these people could still hear or see everything clearly.
Little Loki stared at them for a few moments before stretched its lips revealing its row sharp teeth.
All the people from Immortal Sword Sect shuddered in fear and horror when they saw Little Loki''s frightening evil grin.
Even Tang Li Xue would never think Little Loki cute anymore if she saw its current terrifying evil grin.
All the people from Immortal Sword Sect thought only one thing right now: ''Oh, My God! This little kitten is so scary! I... I want to go home so badly!''
They wanted nothing more than turn around and ran away as far as they could from here right now, but they still could not move their bodies at all.
Little Loki slowly walked toward them.
The old granny with golden Bagua Compass was at the very front since she was the one who led this group of people here, so Little Loki arrived in front of her first.
When Little Loki stood right in front of the old granny, the needlepass of her golden Bagua Compass in her grasp went crazy as if it detected something immeasurably evil nearby.
BAAAAANG~!!!
The golden Bagua Compass exploded into tiny pieces.
The old granny''s breaths turned heavy after she saw her golden Bagua Compass exaggerated reaction.
Her face turnedpletely pale like a piece of white paper. She became even more panicked and scared.
''Senior... No! Ancestor...Please, forgive this useless old one! I... I am really sorry! I dare to swear, It... It is not me! It is the old man behind me who wants to...'' The old granny begged and asked for forgiveness in her heart, but before she could finish it...
Little Loki already opened its tiny cute mouth.
As if a tiny ck hole opened inside Little Loki''s tiny mouth, the old granny was sucked into its mouth leaving nothing behind!
Little Loki licked its lips, but its expression showed that it was not satisfied yet.
It walked again and approached the old man with an ancient-looking sword in his grasp.
Elder Shang was really scared out of his wits right now.
He used all of his effort to move his body.
He wanted nothing more other than getting out from here!
Unfortunately, he still failed to even move his toe, so how could he run away from Little Loki now.
''AAAAAHHHH~~!!! You evil spawn! I will never forgive you! I will curse you...''
Before Elder Shang could finish his curse in his heart, Little Loki already opened its tiny mouth again and swallowed Elder Shang like a snack.
''Please... forgive me! I...''
Little Loki devoured the female disciple in one gulp.
''Uwaaahhh~!!! Our sect will never forgive you! The Sect Head will surely hunt you...''
Little Loki sucked the middle-aged bald man in one slurp.
Just like that, Little Loki effortlessly gobbled the eight people from the Immortal Sword Sect without leaving anything behind.
Little Loki looked around with an innocent expression as if it still did not feel full and want to eat more snacks, but it could not find anything to eat anymore.
Little Loki closed its pair of eerie ck eyes before walked back to the covered cave entrance and teleported back inside.
Little Loki licked Tang Li Xue''s cheek a few times before snuggled back into Tang Li Xue''s warm tight embrace.
Little Loki yawned sleepily and fell into deep slumber under Tang Li Xue''s warm embrace.
.....
...
.
The next morning, Tang Li Xue slowly opened her eyes.
Usually, Tang Li Xue always woke up on the top of her warm bed inside his bedroom in Myriad Foxes Academy, so she still felt a bit strange when she woke up inside the dark cave just like now.
It took her a few whiles to clear her sleepiness and remember what happened yesterday.
"Yaaaa... Lazy Little Loki, wake up now! It''s already morning!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she poked Little Loki''s soft cheek a few times to wake it up.
"Nyaaa~!!!" Little Loki meowed as it sleepily opened its third eye.
Tang Li Xue nned to introduce Little Loki to its two siblings, Yaya and Phoenix of Pride.
But she immediately remembered something really important which shepletely forgot before!
"Oh, no! Those two silly disciples! I hope they did not turn into dried corpses yet or I would be damned for sure! Their parents would surely hunt me down!" Tang Li Xue shouted and jumped in shock and panic.
She took out her medium-rank space pouch and pulled out the two disciples from inside it to check on their condition.
Chapter 250: Penniless Tang Li Xue!
Chapter 250: Penniless Tang Li Xue!
The two disciples sat on the ground silently for a few moments with confused expressions stered on their faces.
"Aaaahhh! Why is it so dark all of a sudden right now?! Who dared to turn off the light?!" The female disciple shrill scream resounded in the dark cave.
BBBAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
The male disciple tried to stand up, but his head hit the cave''s ceiling instead, then he stumbled backward and fell to the ground again.
Tang Li Xue dug this deep cave in a hurryst night.
She was mentally and physically exhausted yesterday. All she wanted was to fall asleep as soon as she could, so she only dug it carelessly and made it deeper to make it safer.
She did not even make this cave bigger than necessary since she only nned to use it to sleep for one night.
The cave was tall enough for barely 160 cm tall Tang Li Xue, but the male disciple was more than 180 cm tall. He was one head taller than Tang Li Xue, so it was not strange that his head hit the cave''s ceiling when he stood up.
Actually, this cave that Tang Li Xue made was extremely cramped now after two more people suddenly appeared in there.
"Bast*rd! Who dares to hit my head?! I swear I will surely..." The male disciple shouted out loud while tried to stand up again.
BBBAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
But his head hit the cave''s ceiling again... and he fell onto the ground for the second time.
Tang Li Xue almost wanted tough at the male disciples, but she quickly stifled herughter and exined patiently to the two disciples: "I am really sorry. We were ambushed by several groups of human bandits yesterday. They knocked out you two and almost sold you two to the ve trader. Fortunately, I managed to save the two of youst night before it was toote."
"But they are still persistently chasing after us. That is why I made this cave for us to hide." Tang Li Xue told her lies to the two disciples without flinching at all. Even her expression was really solemn.
"Bandits?!" The female disciple screamed, and her cold expression turned into panic.
"So what if they are bandits?! Don''t tell me you as our escort cannot even defeat a handful of human bandits?! So pathetic and useless! How dare you run with your tail between your legs against those pieces of sh*ts?! Where is your pride as the Fox Race?!" The male disciple sneered at Tang Li Xue and kept mocking at her while rubbed his swollen head.
"That is right! How could you are not protecting us from them and even let them harm us?! You are clearly not doing your job!" The female disciple also started to argue and med Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was toozy to keep arguing with them, so she onlyzily rolled her eyes back and started to gently stroking Little Loki''s smooth fur while quietly listen to their nonstop mocking andints.
Little Loki''s third eye stared at the two disciples in annoyance as an evil glint of light shed in the deep part of its third eye. It was clear that this little ck kitten started to lose its patience.
But Little Loki immediately closed its eye in pleasure when Tang Li started to move her slender finger to caress its soft ck furs. Little Loki even purred softly in joy.
Tang Li Xue did not realize that her yful act to Little Loki had just saved the lives of these two disciples from the fatal disaster.
Tang Li Xue nned to let these two disciples vent their anger and displeasure to her as much as they like now until they werepletely satisfied or exhausted from doing it.
She had her [Indomitable Will] skill anyway. The harsh mocking of these two disciples could no longer affect her heart or mind.
Tang Li Xue''s current mind and heart were extremely calm, like spring water without any ripple.
But Tang Li Xue was still clearly underestimating these two disciples'' way of thinking.
Unfortunately, it was already toote for Tang Li Xue to stop it when they were bbering about canceling the mission, give up on their assignment, and going back to Myriad Foxes Academy right away.
"What?! Wait a minute, so you want to give up and go back to Myriad Foxes Academy right now?! How... Cough... Calm down yourself first! We already this far, so how could we..." Tang Li Xue tried to persuade them, but they immediately threw their tantrum at her again.
"You still dare to say it?! Isn''t this because of your fault?! If you are not so useless, we will never be trapped in this pathetic situation! This has happened because you are so trashy and weak!" The female disciple screamed loudly at Tang Li Xue as if Tang Li Xue made a grave mistake.
"I don''t care anymore! I will go back to Myriad Foxes Academy right now, whether you like it or not! I will report our failure as your fault! I am sure our senior will not me us because you are really so useless! How could weplete our assignment with a burden escort like you?!" The male disciple shouted and added while pointed his finger at Tang Li Xue.
''These two spoiled children want to give up on their assignment, then what the hell will happen to my mission and quest?! Will it count as a fail? Damn it! I cannot let them do that! I don''t care anymore whether they like it or not! Even if I must drag or force them, I would definitelyplete this mission no matter what it takes!'' Tang Li Xue thought decisively.
For the first time, Tang Li Xue started to feel her [Indomitable Will] skill was still not strong enough to handle these two disciples.
While the two disciples still scold Tang Li Xue harshly while kept pointing their fingers at her nose, Tang Li Xue secretly activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used her [Ethereal Form] in an instant. Her slender figure became invisible without being detected by the two disciples.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stealthy approached the two disciples from behind and deactivated her [Ethereal Form] then...
BAAAAAANGGG~!!! BAAAAAANGGG~!!!
Struck the two disciples'' heads again heavily from behind for the third time!
This time Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used a bit more strength than the previous two times until the faces of two disciples smashed onto the floor and nted deeply there.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to check these two idiotic disciples'' conditions and threw them into her medium-rank space pouch.
"My biggest problem right now is... I am penniless. I already spent all of my spirit stones to feed Little Loki before it hatched from its egg. Sigh... what should I do now to get all of those pills'' ingredients?" Tang Li Xue pondered her next move carefully while kept caressing Little Loki in her embrace.
"Should I just steal it all? It should be easy for me with my perfect copy and [Ethereal Form]... No! This is a bad habit! If I steal once then I will steal again and again in the future! Sigh... I cannot let myself be trapped in that hole of sin." Tang Li Xue shook her head to deny that stealing n.
"Oh, right! I am an Apprentice-rank Inscriptionist right now! Why the hell I need to steal?! I can just make a few talismans right now and sell it in Quanhai City!" Tang Li Xue''s eyes turned brighter, and she excitedly took out a batch of nk paper talismans from her space pouch.
Tang Li Xue gave the jade inscription pen to her perfect copy, and she took out her golden [Inscription Pen] from her system inventory for her own use.
Tang Li Xue put the sleepy Little Loki on her side and summoned out a few deep-blue fireballs to illuminating the dark cave.
She could sense everything perfectly in the dark cave with her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability, but she would need to put her entire focus and all of her attention to inscribing the talisman right now, so a few illuminations will immensely help her.
Tang Li Xue casually created a table with her [Energy Maniption], then she started to work together with her perfect copy to inscribe several types of talismans in the dark cave.
They did not have any more beast blood in the space pouch to use as the ink, but they could use their own blood as the recement.
Thanks to Teacher Li Wei''s teaching and her current high Spirit Stat, the sess rate of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy in creating talismans were quite highpared to the first time they made the talismans.
Even without the golden [Inscription Pen] from her system, Tang Li Xue''s sess rate in creating talismans was at 40-50 percent.
With help from golden [Inscription Pen]''s godly effect, Tang Li Xue''s sess rate could reach 80-90 percent!
Little Loki did not interrupt Tang Li Xue at all when she was continuously making the talismans.
It only observed Tang Li Xue''s movement carefully from her side without making any sounds.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy spent several hours to inscribed more than a hundred talismans.
They made several kinds of talismans from the low-ranked basic level to the intermediate-ranked basic level.
Tang Li Xue stored several buff-type talismans for herself. The buff talismans such as [Talisman of Regeneration +3], [Talisman of Giant Strength +2], [Talisman of Lightning Speed +2], [Talisman of Iron Skin +2], and so on would definitely helpful if she met with an unexpected emergency situationter.
After finished her preparation, Tang Li Xue unsummoned her perfect copy and brought Little Loki out from the dark cave.
Tang Li Xue used her [Energy Maniption] to create a flying disc. She rode on it with Little Loki in her embrace and flew back toward the direction of Quanhai City.
Chapter 251: Tang Li Xues Dilemma!
Chapter 251: Tang Li Xue''s Dilemma!
Tang Li Xuended a few miles away from Quanhai City and walked by foot there.
Tang Li Xue also did not bother to enter through the front gate of Quanhai City since she did not have any identity documents for the guards to check. She activated her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure turned invisible, then she passed through the city wall easily.
Tang Li Xue summoned out her perfect copy again inside Quanhai City and gave half of her talismans to her perfect copy.
"I hope we can sell all of these talismans twice faster with both of us working together." Tang Li Xue murmured.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only nodded before took the several stacks of talismans and went to the other street to sell it while the real Tang Li Xue searched for the most crowded ce to sell it.
Tang Li Xue decided to sell her talismans at the main street in the heart of Quanhai City.
Many other vendors here were selling candied fruit,dies'' essories, antique items, meat buns, and many other more.
She used her [Energy Maniption] divine ability and created a simple booth with only one wave of her hand.
If she was in Myriad Foxes Academy, every fox there would think it was normal and would not pay any attention to her, but in Quanhai City, her magic-like performance immediately attracted much attention from the crowds.
"Eh, that person makes that stand by waving only one hand!" One of the people on the street pointed his finger at Tang Li Xue''s booth.
"That person must be a cultivator with high cultivation! I wonder what kind of items that person would sell. Dear, let''s see it for a moment!" The girl said as she pulled the man beside her to Tang Li Xue''s booth.
.....
Tang Li Xue quickly disyed several types of talismans in his booth while pondering carefully about the price.
''ording to the standard price of these talismans in Myriad Foxes Academy, it should be no problem to sell it for several tens of low-tier spirit stones per talisman. I don''t know the exact price of low-tier spirit stone in the human city, but it should be enough for me to buy those pill''s ingredients, right?!'' Tang Li Xue thought for a moment.
''Since I am in a hurry now, I should sell my talisman cheaply at 10 low-tier spirit stones!'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
Normally, that price was super cheap especially when all of Tang Li Xue''s talismans were enhanced talismans with far greater effect than any normal basic talismans.
Any type of enhanced basic talisman should have worth more than even 100 low-tier spirit stones.
While any lowest-tier spirit stones should have worth more than 1,000 gold coins. Even if the rich merchant has so many gold coins, they usually could not buy it since the cultivator rarely sold their spirit stones which could boost their cultivation speed for any worldly item like money or gold.
In short, if Tang Li Xue managed to sell some of her talismans and get several tens of low-tier spirit stones, she should be able to buy all of those pill''s ingredients easily from any pharmacy.
Unfortunately, the inexperienced Tang Li Xue forgot that most of the people in Quanhai City were normal civilians, not cultivators!
Only a handful of them have cultivation high enough to be called cultivators, but they would never roam around the street in the middle of the day like these normal people.
"Cheap powerful talisman!?10 low-tier spirit stones each!" Tang Li Xue deliberately lowered her tone and made it more masculine. Combined with her fox mask and ck cloak, no one could tell if she was a man or woman.
The moment Tang Li Xue shouted her price, all the crowds in front of her froze with silly expressions on their faces.
It only took a few seconds for the crowds to disperse after they heard Tang Li Xue''s shout.
Many of them wanted to curse Tang Li Xue after they heard the price of her merchandise, but they did not dare to do it because the consequence of offending the cultivator in this human society was really harsh. They would usually either be crippled or instantly executed by that cultivator.
Actually, the situation in reality, was far worse than depicted in any wuxia novel or movie.
There were no police or righteous heroes in the reality.
In this Immortal world where strength determined everything, the greedy humans usually would only think about their own benefit and how to fulfill their desire. They would never waste their precious time to help anyone poor, weak, or pitiful people like in the movie.
What could they get from helping them any way other than their admiration?
Treasure? No.
Precious herbs? No.
Martial Art Manual? Also no.
On the contrary, there would be some possibilities for them to encounter some enemies out of their league if they have bad luck and died in vain in the end.
The main point was ''there is no merit in helping poor, weak, or useless people'' so mostly cultivators in Immortal World would never do it.
Of course, all of these were not Tang Li Xue''s problems right now.
Her main problem right now was that no one bought any of her talismans after she had been shouting for several hours until past the afternoon and the sun began to set.
Her perfect copy also had the same fate as her, not even a single of her talismans were sold.
Tang Li Xue sat behind her booth and rubbed her forehead with her right hand while her left hand kept gently stroking on Little Loki''s smooth ck furs.
Little Loki currently sleptfortably on Tang Li Xue''sp.
"I... make a big mistake... How could I think of selling my talisman to these civilians?! Let''s give up for today and find an auction house to sell these talismans tomorrow!" Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment while stored back all of her talismans on her booth.
The sky was already turned dark anyway and almost all of the people already went back to their homes. The main street in front of her was almost devoid of people.
But when she wanted to disperse the booth she made from her [Energy Maniption], someone crashed hard onto her booth.
Tang Li Xue''s [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] automatically activated, and she reflexively took a step back before her booth fell along with that person.
Tang Li Xue frowned and stared at the person who crashed onto her booth in displeasure.
This person was actually a young girl of the same age as her.
She wore a luxurious dress and quite pretty for the human standard.
But her current appearance was really messy. Even her luxurious dress tore in several ces revealing her white smooth skin.
Tang Li Xue recognized this young girl. She happily looked at the talismans on Tang Li Xue''s booth with her boyfriend or her brother before, but she did not buy any of Tang Li Xue''s talismans in the end.
"He... Help! Mister, please help! Robbers are chasing after me!" The young girl begged Tang Li Xue with her sweet voice.
This young girl should havee here because she thought Tang Li Xue was a strong cultivator who could generously help her to defeat the robbers.
Several men came chasing after her, and one of them even shouted: "Get back here, you b*tch! How dare you run from us?!"
Tang Li Xue subconsciously wanted to help the young girl, but she immediately realized that these men were not ordinary as well thanks to her [Extrasensory Perception] and her several skills.
They wore ck clothes like usual robbers, but the quality of their weapons was quite good. They even wore inner armor under their ck clothes.
Moreover, these robbers could alsomit crimes in the middle of Quanhai City like this without being stopped or arrested by the city guards, while Tang Li Xue herself became a fugitive.
It was clear from these facts that the background of these ''robbers'' was far from ordinary.
Only one word came into Tang Li Xue''s mind right now after she deduced everything... ''Trouble!''
In one of Instructor Mei Lan''s recent lesson, she exined that the power structure in human society was extremelyplicated. It was the world where human bites human.
Instructor Mei Lan already harshly reminded Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the others, again and again, to never get involved in any kind of dispute in human society.
They were from the Beast Race after all!
There was no need for them to help or even get involved in any human race dispute.
As the disguised beast in the middle of human society, they should always remain low-key and never attract any attention.
That was one of the most important requirements for them to blend in the middle of human society without attracting any unwanted mishap.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue already broke it when she helped Little Loki hatched from its egg before.
She already attracted too much attention at that time, and she even almost got caught by the people from Immortal Sword Sect.
Tang Li Xue did not want to repeat her mistake, so she hugged Little Loki and walked away from the young girl as if she did not see anything.
The eyes of the young girl were full of expectation as she was staring at Tang Li Xue before, but now, it turned into despair.
"Hehehe... Little b*tch, we will make sure you regret it for running away from us?!" One of the robbers sneered as he forcefully pulled the young girl''s tattered dress and tore arge part of the dress.
"Kyaaaaaaaa~~!!! Stop it! I... I am sorry! I promise I will follow you now!" The young girl screamed in fear and quickly covered her chest area while sobbed softly as she tried to hold back her cry.
"Bwahahahaha... Just stripe her naked right here right now!?Let''s take turns to rape her on this street right now and let all the passers-by see it as her punishment!" The other robber with a fierce face licked his lips.
Chapter 252: Tricky Human World Full of Twist!
Chapter 252: Tricky Human World Full of Twist!
The several ck-clothed robbers started to hold the young girl on the ground while the other one ripped her clothes bit by bit.
The panicked young girl cried and screamed out loud in fright tried to ask for help from someone to rescue her, but no one dared to help her.
All the people who walked on that street hastily ran away as far as they could from there.
While everyone whose houses or stores were on that street immediately closed their window and door tightly, pretending as if they did not hear anything.
The eyes of the young girl turned dim when she realized no one would help her.
She closed her eyes in resignation as her tears poured out from the corner of her eyes.
BBBAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
Those several ck-clothed robbers were thrown off several steps away from the young girl.
When the young girl opened back her eyes, a gant figure wearing an elegant-looking azure robe was already standing in front of her with a silver spear in his hand.
There was a familiar jade insignia hanging on his waist, but with ''Immortal Sword Sect''s Core Disciple'' written on its surface.
Several ck-clothed robbers stood back up and pointed their finger in anger at the young man then shouted with a tone filled with anger: "Bast*rd! Who the f*ck are you?! Do you really want to die so badly?! How dare you bother our business?! Do you know who we are?!"
The azure robed young man sneered mockingly at the ck-clothed robbers and replied: "All the scums from 2nd Prince Manor are really getting worse andwless every day."
Several ck-clothed robbers only noticed the jade insignia hung on the young man''s waist after a few moments, and their faces immediately turned pale.
"You... You are Immortal Sword Sect''s Core Disciple!" One of the ck-clothed robbers shouted out in surprise.
"S... So what?! Any immortal cultivator should never bully civilians, or we can report you back to your Immortal Sword Sect so you will get punishedter!" The leader of ck-clothed robbers tried to look brave and warned the azure robed young man.
These ck-clothed robbers were actually the shadow guards of the 2nd prince from the Hong Empire.
That was the reason why these ck-clothed robbers could do whatever they want in this Quanhai City without getting caught by the city guards.
In fact, the city guards and even the city mayor must always be fawning over them so they could put some good words to the higher official so the city guards and the city mayor could get promoted easier.
Unfortunately for them, the azure robed young man did not care about their pitiful threat at all andughed mockingly at them instead.
"Do you really think my honorable Immortal Sword Sect would care about the fate of the scums like you all?! You all do not need to worry. I will not kill any of you..." The azure robed young man muttered.
The ck-clothed robbers sighed in relief after they heard the young man''s words.
"But it does not mean I cannot beat you all to half-dead, right?" The azure robed young man chuckled as he raised his silver spear and pointed it toward the ck-clothed robbers.
The silver spear in the azure robed young man''s grasp started to move in a strange manner as if it was a long silver snake rather than a long spear!
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
The silver long spear moved rapidly sweeping all the ck-clothed robbers easily like a bunch of broken twigs.
All of the ck-clothed robbers were thrown off several meters away, and their bodies crashed hard onto the houses beside the street, then spurted several mouthfuls of blood from their mouths.
All of the ck-clothed robbers did not have any time to care about their wounds. They immediately stood up and ran away as fast and far away as they could from the azure robed young man.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, who stood near them sighed in relief after she saw what happened.
Yes, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was already there from the very start!
When the real Tang Li Xue walked away from here, she stealthy summoned out her perfect copy in [Ethereal Form].
But when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to make her move secretly to save the young beauty, this azure robed young man already made his move first.
In the end, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only silently stood there and watched all the movie-like scenes unfolded in front of her eyes.
''Tsk, tsk, tsk... So this is what they call ''the handsome prince saving a damsel in distress''! It is good. I do not need to step in and expose myself. Who wants to see ''the fox beauty saving a damsel in distress'' scene anyway?! A handsome man is clearly more suitable for that role!''?Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nodded while kept watching the scene in front of her.
Unfortunately, she did not have any popcorn and c right now.
It only took a few strikes for the azure robed young man to beat all the ck-clothed robbers.
''That''s spear technique is so exquisite! Not bad! Now the beautiful girl only needs to fall in love with the handsome young man and live happily ever after.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought and concluded that the clich¨¦ stories usually ended up like that.
Just like what Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had guessed, the young girl approached the handsome young man with a blushed face while covered her almost naked body.
"Th... thank you... thank you very much, young master. I... I do not know how I should thank young master. I... I..." The young girl tried to thank the handsome young man, but she could not hold her tears and cry again.
The young girl looked really fragile and pitiful.
Any men in this situation would surely covered the young girl with their clothes, hugged her gently, andforted her with sweet words before escorted her back to her home.
But the azure robed young man was not moved at all. He only stared at the young girl with his pair of cold eyes as if he was trying to appraise her.
Then suddenly... the azure robed young man used the silver spear in his grasp to stab the young girl''s chest without any warning!
''What the...'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her eyes in shock.
All of those happened so suddenly that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not have any time to reach at all.
It was already toote for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to save the young girl from being impaled by the young man''s sharp silver spear!
But then something unexpected urred again in front of the perfect copy''s eyes.
The young girl sneered as she waved her palm and a blood-colored shield covered her entire body.
BAAAAAAAAANG~!!!
The young man''s silver spear and the young girl''s blood shield fiercely collided!
The young girl took a few steps back, but the young man only took one step back.
However, the young man did not give up that easily.
He thrust his silver spear once again toward the young girl!
This time, the young girl already prepared herself and took out a blood-colored whip from her hidden spatial ring.
When the young girl swung her blood-colored whip to the young man, the silver spear in the young man''s grasp moved to defend against it.
BAAAAAAAAANG~!!!
The silver spear and the blood-colored whip collided heavily in the air and created a few sparks of fire!
The young girl swiftly took a few steps backward to keep her distance from the young man before giggling in ascivious manner.
She did not even bother to cover her almost naked body anymore.
"Hi, handsome guy from Immortal Swords Sect! And here I thought all the people in Immortal Swords Sect are stinky old men with long beards. By the way, how did you know?" The young girl giggled and asked the young man with a sweet tone as if she was trying to seduce him.
"There are many cases of missing people in this Quanhai Citytely, but some of them found as drying corpses. So you are the main culprit behind all of these cases! The demoness from Blood Devil Sect!" The young man shouted, but his face turned even more solemn after he realized the young girl''s formidable prowess.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy almost tripped and fell down when she saw the unexpected plot twist.
The young girl giggled even harder as the blood-colored fog started to cover her entire body.
In a few moments, the blood-colored fog condensed and became a blood-colored dress that covered the young girl''s almost naked body.
"Handsome guy, you are so heartless. So you attacked me randomly without knowing anything? What if I am really an innocent young girl who needed your help? Doesn''t it mean you already killed me unjustly?" The young girl said as she put a pitiful wronged expression with teary eyes.
The young manughed out loud and replied: "So what?! Since I saved you from those scums, doesn''t it mean your life is mine right now? How about giving your life to me here?"
"Humph! You are a cruel man just like the other men! Boring guy... I do not want to y with you anymore!" The young girl said while pouted cutely.
All of the young girl''s movements were so enticing and seductive,bined with her voluptuous young body, she clearly could make any men go crazy with lust.
"You want to run away?! Dream on!" The young man shouted as he threw the silver spear in his grasp toward the young girl.
The silver spear flew toward the young girl, but it only pierced the blood-colored fog in the end. The young girl was nowhere to be seen anymore.
"Damn it!" The young man gnashed his teeth in anger.
All the people from the demon sects have their own strange unique martial arts.
If the Asura Demon Sect''s martial arts emphasized power and offense, then the Blood Devil Sect''s martial arts emphasized the cultivation speed by absorbing the blood from the other people.
Moreover, the Blood Devil Sect has many strange spells, and this Blood Fog was one of them. It clearly can be used to defend, attack, and even to escape!
The young man was only one step away from killing the young girl.
If only the young girl set her blood shieldte by 0.1 seconds, he would certainly already impale the young girl''s heart with his silver spear! So how could he did not feel frustrated?!
The young man left that ce in a hurry since he needed to inform his master about this as soon as he could.
ording to his instinct, the appearance of this demoness in this Quanhai City was not a coincidence at all.
How could the demoness from Blood Devil Sect appear in this Quanhai City alone?!
There should be an even bigger scheme that the Blood Devil Sect made in this Quanhai City!
Only Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy that stood in that ce alone, she even forgot to close her mouth in shock.
''Mommy Lan... Oh, no, I mean Instructor Lan! The human world... is so scary! I want to go home! I miss the peaceful Myriad Foxes Academy so badly! Even Mogui looks a lot cuter than the viins and viinesses in this human world!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy screamed in her heart and shuddered.
The real Tang Li Xue turned off her [Twin Moons] divine ability and unsummoned her perfect copy.
The penniless Tang Li Xue did not even have any money to sleep for one night in the inn. So she decided to activate her [Ethereal Form] and stealthily entered the empty room in the inn.
With Tang Li Xue''s current strength, she could even hold to not sleep for more than one month.
Tang Li Xue also did not n to sleep tonight. She only wanted a quiet ce to continue her cultivation while thinking about her next n.
Chapter 253: Targeted!
Chapter 253: Targeted!
.....
...
.
The azure robed young man went back to the ce where he stayed hurriedly.
There was a golden signboard hung on the luxurious big gate. The exquisite words ''Crown Prince Manor'' was written on the golden signboard.
The azure-robed young man walked toward the pavilion in the middle of therge pond.
Inside the majestic-looking pavilion, a young man was wearing a pair of white robes and clothes. The upper half of his face was covered by a silver mask except his mouth.
He has long silky smooth ck hair and a pair of sharp obsidian ck eyes. The strong and cold aura emitted from his body was enough to make any weaker people cower in fear.
He also has a jade insignia hanging on his waist with ''Immortal Sword Sect''s Elder'' written on its surface.
Surprisingly, this white-robed young man was already holding the Elder position in Immortal Sword Sect despite his age was not that much older than the azure robed young man!
The white-robed young man was currently sat and ying chess alone in the pavilion.
"Core Disciple Ye Zhen greets Elder Yang. There is something urgent that I must report to Elder Yang." The azure robed young man named Ye Zhen said as he politely gave a fist and palm salute to the masked man.
Ye Zhen nced at this Elder Yang with the pair of eyes full of admiration. It was clear that Ye Zhen idolized this Elder Yang so much.
This Elder Yang came joining Immortal Sword Sect only a few months ago, but the sect master of Immortal Sword Sect appreciated him very much and gave him the ''Honorable Elder'' position almost immediately.
At first, many elders in the Immortal Sword Sect disagreed with the sect master''s sudden decision, but all of them were forced to shut up the moment when this Elder Yang showed his martial prowess in front of everyone.
A Core Formation Stage Expert!
Moreover, a Core Formation Stage Expert less than 20 years old!
It was legendary, far rarer than Qilin Horn!
Especially in a ce which farcked in spiritual energy like this Lightwind Continent!
The probability of this happening was probably the same as finding a pr bear in the middle of the desert.
Elder Yang''s background was really mysterious, and no one knew where he came from.
Some elders said he came from the Central Continent to avoid the chase of the powerhouses there.
The others said he was an illegitimate descendant of the former sect master and came back to the Immortal Sword Sect to take the sect master position.
Despite all of those rumors, no one could deny this Elder Yang''s unmatched monstrous talent. They only dared to talk behind his back.
"Speak." Elder Yang said with a cold uncaring tone. He did not bother to raise his head. His eyes were still fully focused on the chessboard in front of him.
Ye Zhen started to tell Elder Yang about what happened before in detail without leaving anything behind.
When Ye Zhen''s story reached the part where the Demoness from Blood Devil Sect escaped, Elder Yang raised his hand to stop Ye Zhen from talking.
"Strange." Elder Yang murmured while frowned deeper.
"Elder Yang, can you enlighten me which part is strange?" Ye Zhen tried to probe.
"Everything." Elder Yang said as he stopped ying the chess and finally stared back at Ye Zhen as if he was asking, ''have you really not notice anything strange?'' with his nce.
Ye Zhen put on the confused expression and started to think which part of his story was strange.
"That ck robbers are the 2nd prince people, and the 2nd prince is suspected of conspiring with the demon sect to get the throne for himself." Elder Yang pointed out the clue for Ye Chen.
Ye Zhen nodded, but he still remained clueless about what was strange.
Hong Empire was one of the many human countries under the Immortal Sword Sect''s jurisdiction.
The current emperor of the Hong Empire was nothing more than a puppet pointed by the Immortal Sword Sect to govern the Hong Empire.
The current crown prince was also no different from the emperor. He was another puppet under the Immortal Sword Sect control.
But this 2nd prince was different. He was cunning and ambitious. He was not willing to stay under the Immortal Sword Sect''s control and started to collude with the demon sect to forcefully seize the throne from the crown prince.
The main problem right now was that they do not have any evidence pointing to the 2nd prince!
Everything was only based on their own conclusion.
Of course, they could just kill the 2nd prince right now without any need for evidence, but it will ruin their name as one of the four virtuous sects.
In fact, the Immortal Sword Sect had already sent several of their people to secretly assassinate the 2nd prince, but all of them mysteriously disappeared without any trace.
Immortal Sword Sect''s secret agent from the information division in Quanhai City managed to somehow get the information about the 2nd prince''s strange movement and the presence of demon sect people in Quanhai Citytely.
Ye Zhen and Elder Yang were sent to secretly investigate the 2nd prince''s strange movements and eliminate all the demon sect people in Quanhai City while at it.
However, all the demon sects'' people clearly could not be underestimated. The reason for all the demon sects could survive until now was clearly because of their ability to escape and hide.
Although, the five virtuous sects called themselves righteous and sincere, but what they always did was no more than seizing all the cultivation resources from these mortal countries, kingdoms, and empires under them.
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan taught to Tang Li Xue and her friends, all humans were not only cunning but also treacherous and sinister in nature, while all the beasts were wild and savage but at least, their way of thinking was simple.
It was hard to tell which one was stronger between Beast Race and Human Race, but the Human Race was clearly far more superior in terms of scheming.
Not to mention deceiving other races like Beast Race, Human Race could even cheat and deceive their own people with the same level intelligence as them.
Thus the Beast Race always taught all of their own youngsters to never believe or meddle about anything in the human world.
Elder Yang continued his exnation with a grim expression: "If we concluded that the 2nd prince was conspiring with the demon sect like Blood Devil Sect, then why 2nd prince people assaulted the demoness from Blood Devil Sect without knowing it?"
Ye Zhen''s mind immediately caught the clue from Elder Yang''s words and said in realization: "Oh, I see! So Elder Yang is suspecting those robbers and demoness put on some fake acts to deceive me?"
"Not you. From your story, they already put their act before you are there. So, they were doing those performances to deceive someone before you. Is there someone else other than you? If so, they must be targeting that person." Elder Yang said with a tone full of confidence.
"Someone else other than me? Why do they need to go that far? They only need to catch that person right away, right?" Ye Zhen asked. He still felt unconvinced.
"Then what if that person was one of us and actually the trap set by us? Their act was nothing more than the action to probe that person. Since they already see you, they should have already confirmed, that person has nothing to do with us, and they will definitely make their move on that person now." Elder Yang exined patiently to Ye Zhen.
"Um... But I do not see other people there..." Ye Zhen tried to remember the scene when he fought, but there was no one other than him there.
Then he immediately realized the wrecked booth there and widened his eyes in shock.
Tang Li Xue''s appearance was so suspicious, so of course, Ye Zhen already secretly checked at her before.
He suspected that the ck-cloaked Tang Li Xue was the person from the demon sect and watched her closely for an hour or so, but failed to notice anything strange.
In the end, Ye Zhen concluded that Tang Li Xue was only another scammer cultivator that tried to scam the civilians'' money and decided to stop to keep an eye on her.
The main reason for that was because he could not detect Tang Li Xue''s cultivation thanks to her passive [Conceal] divine ability from her [Ethereal Form].
"That ck-cloaked person! Don''t tell me the target of that demoness is that scammer! Oh, no! If that is true, that person is in danger right now!" Ye Zhen shouted in surprise, and he immediately turned around to chase after the ck-cloaked person.
"Stop!" Elder Yang quickly stopped him.
Ye Zhen halted his step and looked back at Elder Yang quizzically.
"Since the demoness from Blood Devil Sect already saw you before, we can assume that all the people from Blood Devil Sect already knew about our existence here. It is too dangerous for you to move alone!" Elder Yang warned Ye Zhen sternly.
"You are lucky there is no elder from Blood Devil Sect there before or you would have already died by now. Moreover, I cannot move from here since I need to protect the emperor and crown prince. Fortunately, I have already asked for more reinforcement from the sect since two days ago. We can only wait until they arrive here." Elder Yang assured Ye Zhen.
"Reinforcement? What if they only send several core disciples? It is clearly far from enough." Ye Zhen asked with a worried tone.
"Don''t worry. I already ask for Elder Shang, Granny Gui, and Elder Zheng to personallye here." Elder Yang replied as he continued ying the chess again.
"Oooohhh! With Elder Shang''s powerful thunder spells, Granny Gui''s Feng Shui''s Formation, and Elder Zheng''s Imprable Seemless Diamond Body, those demons from Blood Devil Sect would stand no chance at all!" Ye Zhen shouted in shock and excitement.
"That''s true. So we only need to wait for them toe here before making our move and clean all of those demons in one sweep from Quanhai City including that 2nd prince." Elder Yang muttered to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen nodded and decided to sit patiently on the chair in the pavilion.
Unfortunately for them, their reinforcement was already fated to nevere. Because all of them had already digested in Little Loki''s stomach before they could even step into Quanhai City.
.....
...
.
Little Loki currently fell asleepfortably on Tang Li Xue''sp, while Tang Li Xue still diligently cultivated the [Crimson Phoenix] of her [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art].
She did not have any spirit stone in her possession anymore, so she did not have any other choice other than cultivating bit by bit.
She was trying to umte her Qi until it reached the critical point where it was enough to breakthrough from Qi Condensation Stage to Acupuncture Opening Stage.
It would certainly take a lot longer time than using the mid-tier spirit stone to breakthrough like before, but she really did not have any more choice.
But the sudden sound of door-knocking woke her up from her focused state...
Knock... Knock... Knock...
Chapter 254: Indulgence Powder!
Chapter 254: Indulgence Powder!
Tang Li Xue opened her eyes and frowned.
She quickly stopped her cultivation and took the ck cloak beside her, then wore it to cover her silver furred foxtail and used the hood to cover the pair of silver fox ears on the top of her head.
Tang Li Xue also used her [Energy Maniption] to instantly create the fox mask to cover her wlessly beautiful face again as usual.
Tang Li Xue took the sleeping Little Loki on herp into her embrace before walked toward the door, but before she could open it, the person in front of Tang Li Xue''s room knocked on the door again a few times.
Knock... Knock... Knock...
Actually, Tang Li Xue already knew who was standing in front of the room with her [Extrasensory Perception].
It was actually a cute waitress with the tray in her hands. She was bringing a teapot and some snacks with that tray.
But Tang Li Xue''s sharp [Extrasensory Perception] also detected something strange from this waitress.
''The pungent smell of blood stuck on her body¡ is the same as that young girl from before¡'' Tang Li Xue thought silently.
Yes, Tang Li Xue also detected the same pungent smell of blood from the young girl who almost got raped before.
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] actually already detected this pungent smell of blood since the first time she saw the young girl browsed on the talismans she sold in the morning.
However, Tang Li Xue did not think much about it since there were many reasons for someone to smell like that, especially women.
Maybe she was a chef in a big restaurant and cut many chickens and pigs to cook everyday¡
Maybe she was a female butcher and cut many beasts'' raw meats every day¡
Tang Li Xue felt a bit suspicious, but she immediately shook her head.
''She is a waitress in this inn, so maybe she also cut many pigs or chickens to cook for today.'' Tang Li Xue concluded.
Of course, Tang Li Xue had never even smelled the reek of blood that stunk until this level, not even from any butchers or chefs.
It was not the pungent stench that could be smelled with the sharp sense of smell, but the reek which came from someone''s soul and aura.
But Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] was an extraordinary perception-type divine ability that could even detect anyone''s nature, so it was not strange if it could detect something which could not be detected by any other person.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not know exactly about the true greatness of her [Extrasensory Perception], and she would also never thought that someone would be targeting her since this was the first time for her to appear in the human world in her human form.
She did not even have any acquaintance or enemies yet in the human world, so how could she be the target for anyone!
''But this is truly strange! How could this waitress know that I am staying in this room? I should have sneaked into this room with my [Ethereal Form] without anyone realized it before!'' Tang Li Xue pondered for a moment.
''Whatever¡ Let''s just see what she wants to do first. If she asks me to get out from here right now, then I will have no choice other than sneaking into another inn. Sigh¡ If only I have more money...'' Tang Li Xuemented in her heart.
Thus Tang Li Xue did not hold any suspicion, and she nonchntly opened the door.
The waitress politely bowed to Tang Li Xue and said a few words of exnation about these snacks and tea were the free service from the inn with a gentle smile on her face.
Tang Li Xue frowned a bit, but she still let the waitress entered her room.
However, when the waitress walked to the table in the middle of the room to put the tray contained teapot and snacks, she identally stumbled and fell down!
PRAAAAANK~~!!!
The tray, teapot, and tes hit the ground first and shattered into tiny pieces!
But Tang Li Xue reflexively caught the waitress''s shoulder before she fell onto the ground and pulled the waitress toward her.
Tang Li Xue used a bit too much force, so the waitress''s body bumped lightly into her chest.
The waitress was so close with Tang Li Xue, so Tang Li Xue identally took a whiff of the perfume on the waitress''s body.
It smelled very strange. Even Tang Li Xue with her knowledge of Beginner-rank Alchemist was failed to recognize the purpose or ingredients of this perfume.
Tang Li Xue started to feel dizzy and sleepy all of a sudden.
She staggered backward for a few steps until she leaned onto the wall behind her. She even almost dropped Little Loki in her embrace.
Tang Li Xue held her forehead with one of her hands as her vision turned blurry.
"Hooo¡ so you can still maintain your reasoning and consciousness even after sniffing my Indulgence Powder. You are really quite impressive! Fortunately, I approached you carefully and not using force or I might already fail by now." The seductive voice rang in Tang Li Xue''s ears.
Tang Li Xue''s blurry eyes could not see everything clearly, but with her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue could clearly sense that the person talking to her was actually the waitress in the room.
Her innocent demeanor haspletely changed into seductive and domineering.
The waitress ripped the skin mask on her face and her waitress clothes revealing her true enchanting face and voluptuous naked body.
But the blood-colored fog immediately appeared and covered her naked body. The blood-colored fog formed a sexy crimson dress worn by the former waitress.
''Wait a minute... This crazy girl seems familiar... Wasn''t this girl the one who almost got raped in front of my stall before?'' Tang Li Xue screamed in her heart when she saw the crimson dressed girl''s appearance with her [Extrasensory Perception].
"Wh¡ What? What are you¡ doing to me? Why?" Tang Li Xue asked the red-dressed girl.
In Tang Li Xue''s current state, even saying a few words like this was already very taxing for her.
There were many questions Tang Li Xue wanted to ask this woman, but right now, she only wanted to distract this woman for a moment.
"Do you just asking me about what am I giving to you or why am I attacking you? Hm¡ All right! I will exin as much as I can to you before you passed out." The crimson-dresseddy said while giggled in a seductive way as she sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s bed and crossed her legs revealing her long smooth pair of legs.
Tang Li Xue secretly summoned out her perfect copy in the [Ethereal Form], so the crimson dresseddy could not see or detect her perfect copy.
But when Tang Li Xue wanted to use the [Damage Transfer] to transfer that Indulgence Powder''s effect to her perfect copy, something unexpected happened in her body.
The [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline in her body was activated and burned all of Indulgence Powder''s residue in her blood into nothingness!
While the [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline in her body was also activated andpletely nullified all of the negative effects of that Indulgence Powder from her body almost in an instant.
Tang Li Xue''s mind turned clear at that moment, and her vision was no longer blurry.
She also did not feel sleepy or dizzy anymore.
''Awesome! So this is the true power of my two bloodlines?! No, the power of my bloodlines should be more than this! I should go to the library and read more about the bloodline after I go back to Myriad Foxes Academyter!'' Tang Li Xue thought in excitement.
However, Tang Li Xue did not forget to maintain her act and still appeared as if she was affected by the Indulgence Powder from the crimson dresseddy.
She wanted to hear the reason why this crimson dresseddy assaulted her.
"That Indulgence Powder is a rare poison concocted by my Blood Devil Sect. We used the virgin blood from 100 different men and women then mixed it with the rare type of beast blood. This powder could even knock out any Foundation Establishment Stage Expert in one whiff and sent them into their desired dream." The crimson dresseddy patiently exined.
"Even I need to drink the antidote first before using it as perfume or I will be knocked out in a single whiff too. Unfortunately, this Indulgence Powder is so rare and hard to make, if not, my Blood Devil Sect would already be a number one sect in Lightwind Continent." The crimson dresseddy with the displeasure tone.
Why this crimson dresseddy did not attack Tang Li Xue now? The reason for that was because she was still slightly wary of Tang Li Xue''s retaliation.
That was why she decided to stall for more time by talking like this and wait for the Indulgence Powder to make Tang Li Xue passed out before sucked the blood in Tang Li Xue''s body dry.
"The cultivation in my Blood Devil Sect is unique. While the other people need the spirit stones to increase their cultivation speed, we, the people from the Blood Devil Sect need human blood to increase our cultivation speed." The crimson dresseddy said as she seductively licked her red lips and loudly gulped her saliva.
She looked at Tang Li Xue impatiently as if she stared at the most delicious delicacy and could not wait to devour it.
''Eh? Why does it sound a lot like a vampire? Is everyone in this girl''s sect a vampire?'' Tang Li Xue thought doubtfully.
"Your blood is so vigorous and filled with vitality. It''s very suitable for my cultivation. I could even faintly detect the ancient bloodline contained in your blood. It must be super delicious! I wonder how many ranks I will increase after I drank all of your blood! I might be even breaking through to Foundation Establishment Stage in one go!" The crimson-dresseddy said with an excited tone.
The corner of Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips twitched violently.
''Damn it! So this crazy woman is attacking me because of my bloodlines?!'' Tang Li Xue shouted in her mind.
Chapter 255: The Kind and Beautiful Young Lady!
Chapter 255: The Kind and Beautiful Young Lady!
While Tang Li Xue still kept putting up on act as if she was still under the effect of Indulgence Powder, her perfect copy already stealthy went right behind the crimson dresseddy.
Right now, Tang Li Xue was still carefully pondering about what she would need to do to this crazy crimson dresseddy next.
Tang Li Xue did not have any grievance or hatred with this crazydy, and Tang Li Xue truthfully did not want to kill her, but this crazydy also attacked her without any reason.
When Tang Li Xue was still hesitating in making her decision, one of Instructor Mei Lan''s lessons about this topic was shed in her mind.
.....
...
.
"When you are all in the human world, remember to always stay low-key and never do something that could draw any attention to yourself. Even if any human kept provoking you, you only need to ignore them." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others.
Hei Yinghao raised one of his hands and asked: "Then what should we do if they attacked us first?"
Instructor Mei Lan giggled and patiently replied: "It depends on your situation at that time. If you are in a crowded ce, you should run away first. It would be best if you can get away from them, but if you cannot..."
Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes turned cold as she continued: "Lure them to the quiet ce and finish them all in one go."
"The Human Race is a social creature, so the probability of them having someone important or strong to back them up was really high. You will never know if your human''s opponents would call for more people to fight against you, and they even might be someone stronger than you." Instructor Mei Lan exined with a solemn expression.
"You should run away if some humans attacked you in a crowded area to avoid any suspicion, but if you are in a quiet ce... kill all of them off swiftly without mercy to avoid any trouble and get out as quickly as you can from there!" Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue and the others.
"You must always remember to never show any leniency toward any human. They are cunning and sinister creatures. Any words thate from their mouths are mostly lies, so you should never believe what they said even if they promise something while begging you to spare their lives." Instructor Mei Lan said as she concluded her lesson that day.
.....
...
.
The hesitation in Tang Li Xue''s eyes has vanished and reced by a glint of coldness.
The unnoticeable murderous intent has bloomed in her heart.
''That is right. She was the one who tried to kill me first, so why should I spare her?! Little girl, you only have yourself to me since you are targeting the wrong person... I mean the wrong beast.'' Tang Li Xue said in her heart as she pretended to lose her consciousness.
The crimson dresseddy already patiently waited for a few minutes while talked a few random things, but she started to lose her patience when she saw that Tang Li Xue still has not passed out yet.
After she saw Tang Li Xue has already passed out, the crimson dresseddy stood up from Tang Li Xue''s bed and vigntly approached Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also stealthy approached the crimson dresseddy from behind.
Who knew that the crimson dresseddy did not n to get too close to the unconscious Tang Li Xue. She suddenly took out her blood-colored whip andshed it toward the unconscious Tang Li Xue.
BBWWWOOOOOSSSSHHH~!!!
Tang Li Xue did indeed close her eyes and pretended to be fainting, but her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability kept watching on the crimson dresseddy every movement.
The moment when the blood-colored whip almost touched her, she immediately activated her [Ethereal Form]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
The wall behind Tang Li Xue got sted into pieces!
At the same time as that, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy turned off her [Ethereal Form] divine ability and appeared behind the crimson dresseddy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy flicked her slender fingers and shot out the cross silvery light sh toward the crimson dresseddy in an instant.
[Moon Splitter]!
The crimson dresseddy''s expression turned grim, but she already prepared to defend against Tang Li Xue''s counterattack.
The crimson dresseddy activated her blood barrier as soon as possible to block the [Moon Splitter]!
But Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Splitter] has incredible sharpness. The silver light cross sliced the blood barrier easily like cutting on the tomato.
The crimson dresseddy forced to turn around and used the blood-colored whip in her grasp to defend against Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Splitter].
BBBAAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
The silver light cross struck the blood-colored whip hard, but it was failed to cut through the blood-colored whip.
It was clear that the blood-colored whip in the crimson dresseddy''s grasp was not as simple as it looked.
But the crimson dresseddy staggered a few steps backward because of the powerful force contained in Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Splitter].
Unfortunately, the real Tang Li Xue still stood behind the crimson dresseddy in her [Ethereal Form], waiting for this moment to deal the finishing blow to the crimson dresseddy!
The real Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form] and waved her hand while using her [Energy Maniption] to instantly create five white jade-like swords.
The five white jade-like swords simultaneously flew toward the crimson dresseddy.
It turned into five white shes andbined into one silver sword right before it pierced the crimson dresseddy''s blood barrier from behind and created a fist-sized hole on her back.
The expression of crimson dresseddy turned nk as she spurted out several mouthfuls of blood from her mouth.
She stared at the fist-sized hole on her chest in disbelief for a moment before turned around looked at the real Tang Li Xue behind her.
"You¡ two¡" The crimson dresseddy dreadfully stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in front of her with an expression filled with confusion.
She still did not understand why there were two Tang Li Xues here, and both of them were real!
The crimson dresseddy looked as if she wanted to ask about it, but unfortunately, it was already toote.
Her vision turned dark as her consciousness faded away, and her life finally lost forever.
When Tang Li Xue saw the crimson dresseddy''s lifeless body limply dropped onto the cold floor, she still did not let her guard down or felt happy at all.
Tang Li Xue quickly waved her hand and sent out the deep-blue me of pride to burn the dead body into nothingness without leaving anything behind.
But of course, Tang Li Xue would never forget to take the precious spatial ring from the crimson dresseddy''s corpse before she burned it.
Tang Li Xue threw the spatial ring into her space pouch and quickly activated her [Ethereal Form] then her slender figure turned invisible.
While Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy made sure to not leave any clue in that room for a few moments, the real Tang Li Xue was already quickly fled from that ce as quickly as possible.
The inn where she stayed before was in the middle of Quanhai City, but she stealthy ran toward the southeast of the Quanhai City right now.
Tang Li Xue did not any inn here since the corner of Quanhai City was mostly the slum where the gangsters and the criminals were flocking together.
In short, this corner of Quanhai City was the red light district. There were ck markets, brothels, gambling houses, and so on here.
Tang Li Xue did not mind it and slipped into an empty stable with her [Ethereal Form].
She sat on the mound of straw and put the sleeping Little Loki on herp before taking out the spatial ring she got from the crimson dresseddy.
Tang Li Xue sent her Qi and consciousness into the crimson dresseddy''s spatial ring to check its content.
There were many barrels of blood in there.
''Tsk! Why the hell the content of this spatial ring feels familiar?!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue.
It was actually quite simr to the content of [Demonic Blood Fox]''s space pouch before¡
Tang Li Xue did not n to use or touch this blood. She nned to dump it all somewhere outside Quanhai City to avoid suspicion after shepleted her mission and quest in this cityter.
There were some martial arts books, but all of them must using blood to cultivate or activate it.
Tang Li Xue also did not interesting in these kinds of martial arts, which must use human blood. She lost interest after peeked at it for a few minutes.
The level of these martial arts was also too low and could not bepared with even a tenth of [Heaven Splitting Wave] at all.
However, Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes immediately shone brighter after she saw the next items in this spatial ring!
Gold coins!
Low-tier spirit stones!
There were not many of them. Only several chests of gold coins and several pouches of low-tier spirit stones.
If the previous Tang Li Xue in Myriad Foxes Academy saw this, she would probably haveined in disappointment on how poor of this crimson dresseddy was.
But right now, she was extremely poor that she did not even have a penny in her pocket.
These gold coins and low-tier spirit stones came too timely, just when she was in dire need of it to finish her mission and quest!
Tang Li Xue felt really touched, and she almost cried in tears because of it.
''To think there was a kind youngdy that delivered this to me when I needed them it the most¡ Instructor Lan, you are really wrong. Not all humans are that sinister. Compared to those two annoying foxes, this crazy... I mean this beautiful youngdy is very nice! Look, she even gave me the money toplete my mission!'' Tang Li Xue murmured in her heart as she started to count the gold coins in the spatial ring.
If the dead crimson dresseddy could hear Tang Li Xue''s thought right now, she would probably jump back here from theherworld and cursed Tang Li Xue with countless profanities.
Chapter 256: Undercurrent Surging!
Chapter 256: Undercurrent Surging!
...
...
.
Tang Li Xue did not know that somewhere inside the slum area near the stable where she was staying, the core disciples and elders of Blood Devil Sect were discussing something rted to her.
"The life tablet of one of our core disciples has broken just now." The elder with a skull mask told the other elders inside the darkroom.
"Whose life tablet?" The old elder with a ck mask asked.
"It is Xiangyi''s life tablet." The elder with a skull mask replied.
"Sigh... Such a pity! That littless is really talented, but she is really mischievous. She cannot even sit tight for only a single day." The old elder with a ck mask shook his head and said in a mournful tone.
"Do you know who did it?" The voluptuous woman with a demon mask asked, but anyone could sense the anger and resentment contained in her voice.
"I do not know. But ording to the 2nd prince''s people, that littless fought with the core disciple from Immortal Sword Sect about an hour ago. Maybe that core disciple from Immortal Sword Sect chased after her and managed to kill her in the end." The elder with a skull mask answered with a monotonous cold tone.
"Impossible! I remember that she still has some Indulgence Powder left. With that, she should be able to turn the tide of the battle and kill that core disciple of the Immortal Sword Sect easily!" The voluptuous woman with a demon mask yelled at the elder with a skull mask.
The elder with a skull mask sneered and replied with a mocking tone: "I heard that male disciple of the Immortal Sword Sect is really handsome. Maybe she let down her guard and got seduced by that handsome disciple, then got killed by him before she has a chance to use the Indulgence Powder."
The voluptuous woman with a demon mask on her face gnashed her teeth and stared angrily at the elder with a skull mask, but before they could argue further with each other, the old elder with the ck mask quickly interrupted them.
"That is enough!" The old elder with the ck mask''s loud shout stopped the two elders from saying anything.
"It seems that the people from the Immortal Sword Sect are already aware of our presence in this Quanhai City. The reason they still have not done any move to us yet must be because they are still waiting for more reinforcement from the Immortal Sword Sect!" The old elder with the ck mask told them his deduction.
".....We are running out of time." The elder with a skull mask murmured.
"Are our preparations for ''that'' alreadypleted?" The old elder with the ck mask asked the voluptuous woman with a demon mask.
"Almost! I just need a few more hours toplete it. We should be able to use it in the morning. But... I do not have time to check and test it... maybe there will be some problems that will ur when we use ''that''ter... Are you sure we must use it tomorrow morning?" The voluptuous woman with a demon mask answered in an unsure tone.
"We do not have any other choice! We will lose our chance if the reinforcement from the Immortal Sword Sect has alreadye." The elder with a skull mask said in an impatient manner.
The old elder with the ck mask pondered in a few moments before said with a resolute tone: "That is right! We do not have any more time to spare. We will use that thing tomorrow morning! Then we must retreat from Quanhai City as soon as possible before the reinforcement from the Immortal Sword Secte."
The voluptuous woman with a demon mask and the elder with a skull mask nodded in agreement.
The three of them went out from the dark secret room, and they hastily did all the things they must do.
Quanhai City''s next morning was fated to not be peaceful with what these three elders from Blood Devil Sect had nned to do!
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue was currently still oblivious to all of that. She continued her cultivation peacefully in the empty and quiet stable until the next morning.
Little Loki yawned widely and jumped from Tang Li Xue''sp onto her embrace.
"Good morning, Little Loki!" Tang Li Xue giggled as she gently stroked Little Loki''s soft ck fur.
"Oh, yes... I almost forgot." Tang Li Xue murmured.
She opened Yaya''s status window and tapped on the [[Summon]] button to summon out Yaya from her system''s storage.
Yaya has passed her bacsh period since yesterday, but she was extremely exhausted because of it, so she fell asleep all day yesterday.
"Yayaya~~!" Yaya excitedly flew toward Tang Li Xue and hugged her neck, then rained Tang Li Xue''s cheek with many of her kisses.
Tang Li Xue also sent her consciousness into her Dantian. She urged the Blue Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian to wake up and came out for a moment.
Blue Phoenix of Pride flew out from Tang Li Xue''s Dantian albeit unwillingly.
"Okay, Little Loki... This blue me bird is your oldest sibling, Pride. This cute fairy is your 2nd sibling, Yaya. Yaya and Pride, this ck kitty is your youngest sibling, Little Loki. Now we are a family of four! Yaay~~!" Tang Li Xue introduced them to each other while pped her hands.
On the contrary to Tang Li Xue''s expectation, the three of them were not excited at all after meeting with each other.
The three of them were staring at each other silently with solemn expressions.
The thick aura of rivalry between them was burning very fiercely as the unseen spark of lightning shed from their re.
"Nyaaa~~!" Little Loki was the first to meowed in bored, and itzily jumped back into Tang Li Xue''s embrace.
The Blue Phoenix of Pride flew back into Tang Li Xue''s Dantian, while Yaya obediently sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure turned invisible. She decided to leave the stable very early in the morning, so anyone could not see her stayed here.
Just like usual, when Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form], her pets like Yaya and Little Loki was also turned invisible too along with her.
Tang Li Xue did not know the exact reason, but her heart feels really restless this morning as if something bad would happen soon.
It might be because of her sharp [Extrasensory Perception] which sensed something or maybe her skills such as [Sharpen Mind], [Calction], [Prediction], [Intelligence Enhancement] and so on predicted something vague ahead of time.
In short, Tang Li Xue really did not like this feeling, so she nned toplete her mission in this Quanhai City and went back to Myriad Foxes Academy as soon as possible.
Tang Li Xue decided to summon out her perfect copy in [Ethereal Form] too and went to the two different pharmacy stores.
With so many gold coins and some low-tier spirit stones in her current possession, Tang Li Xue easily bought every herb and ingredient she needs to concoct those pills in the list gave by those two disciples.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue could easily appraise the quality of the herbs and ingredients with her knowledge as a Beginner-rank Alchemist.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy went into several pharmacy stores and bought the best quality herbs and ingredients there.
It took Tang Li Xue two hours to finish her assignment even with her perfect copy''s help.
''Sigh... This is those two''s fault! If they had not caused any trouble at the biggest pharmacy store in Quanhai City before, I would only need to go to that store. I do not need to go to the several small pharmacy stores in the corner of Quanhai City one by one like this...'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anger.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
''Fiuh... Oh, well... Thankfully, this is all over now. I only need to go back into that forest and let these two troublemaker disciples open the space gate back to Myriad Foxes Academy.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
Tang Li Xue knew that these two troublemaker disciples would definitely throw a big tantrum at her if she took them out from her medium-rank space pouch now.
Who knew what kind of big trouble they would create, so she did not n to let them out here in Quanhai City.
She would only need to let them out from her medium-rank space pouch after she went back into that unknown forest.
If they dared to make any big trouble or ruckus in that unknown forest, she would only need to make them into bait for that big bear there and forced them to open the space gate back to Myriad Foxes Academy.
Tang Li Xue turned off her [Twin Moons] divine ability and unsummoned her perfect copy.
She dashed swiftly to the thick stone wall which surrounded and protected Quanhai City from any external threat.
With her [Ethereal Form], Tang Li Xue''s transparent figure easily passed through the thick stone wall.
Again, for an unknown reason, Tang Li Xue''s heartfelt a lot calmer after she went out from Quanhai City.
Tang Li Xue sprinted quickly until she was a few miles away from Quanhai City before she turned off her [Ethereal Form] and created a flying disc with her [Energy Maniption].
''Someday... I wille back again to this Quanhai City to leisurely sightseeing with Little Loki and Yaya.'' Tang Li Xue smiled gently as she rode on the top of her flying disc and stared back at Quanghai City for onest time.
But Tang Li Xue''s gentle smile turned into shock... when something strange happened to Quanhai City!
A massive blood-colored barrier was covering the entire Quanhai City!
"What... the hell... is that?" Tang Li Xue murmured as she widened her eyes in disbelief.
Even thezy Little Loki raised its tiny furry head and stared at Quanghai City.
There was a glint of excitement and hunger in its third eye.
Tang Li Xue subconsciously felt that this blood-colored barrier was really bad news for all the creatures inside Quanghai City.
''What to do now? What should I do now? Should I abandon it and go back to Myriad Foxes Academy now? Or... no, no, no... There is no way I am going back there!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and pondered carefully.
''That is not my problem anyway, right? For God''s Sake, I am a fox from the Fox Race! Why the hell I have to help those people from the Human Race?!'' Tang Li Xue thought.
''There is no guarantee they would feel d if they knew someone from Beast Race helped them... and there is also no guarantee that I have enough strength to help them too, right?!'' Tang Li Xueforted herself as she flew away from Quanhai City.
Chapter 257: Blood Draining Formation Barrier!
Chapter 257: Blood Draining Formation Barrier!
Despite all of her thoughts to go back as soon as possible to Myriad Foxes Academy, Tang Li Xue still could not bear to abandon all the people in Quanhai City in the end.
Although, Hong Empire was already declined a lot because of the fierce power struggle between the crown prince and the 2nd prince, which made it appeared not as grandiose as the other human empires, but as the Capital City of Hong Empire, Quanhai City was quite crowded with people.
While Quanhai City did not look that big and majestic like the other capital cities or Myriad Foxes Academy, there should be more than a million people currently living inside Quanhai City now!
If that blood-colored barrier has a really sinister effect just like what Tang Li Xue had felt... then it means more than one million people living inside Quanhai City now would perish sooner orter today!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she stopped driving her flying disc from flying farther from Quanhai City.
''Sigh... Am I really that moron? Am I really going toe back to Quanhai City and do the thankless job? Am I really going to risk my life for all the people I don''t even know?'' Tang Li Xue started to question her reasoning in her mind.
"Nyaaa~~!!!" Little Loki squirmed out from Tang Li Xue''s embrace and cutely looked at the direction of Quanhai City as if it was worry that Tang Li Xue would abandon the city.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes widened in surprise, and she immediately patted Little Loki''s head gently.
"You are right, Little Loki! How could I be such a cruel fox and abandon the life of one million people in front of me just like that?! If I really do that, the reason I train until now will lose all of its meaning! Just like the sharp sword without its meaning, it would be nothing more than a tool for murder!" Tang Li Xue grasped her fist and said with a tone filled with a firm will.
"Let''s go, Little Loki! We wille back now!" Tang Li Xue stroke Little Loki''s smooth ck fur gently as she drove her flying disc back to Quanhai City.
Little Loki rolled its third eyes as if it thought: ''Please... Who told you to help those worthless people? I just feel very hungry right now, and I smell some delicious snacks in that city.''
Usually, Tang Li Xue could feel what her pets have currently thought from their mind connection. In fact, she already read Yaya and Phoenix of Pride''s thoughts countless times before.
But Little Loki was different from Yaya and Phoenix of Pride. It could easily block their mind connection and prevent Tang Li Xue from reading its mind.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not know all of these, and she already stealthilynded her flying disc near the blood-colored barrier.
Tang Li Xue jumped down from her flying disc and activated her [Ethereal Form]. Her slender figure turned transparent once again.
Tang Li Xue carried Little Loki in her embrace and walked to the blood-colored barrier.
BBBAAAAAAAANGGG~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s transparent head bumped onto the blood-colored barrier, and her [Ethereal Form] was automatically canceled in an instant as a bit of her vitality energy and blood was drained by the blood-colored barrier.
"Eh? I cannot enter Quanhai City using my [Ethereal Form] anymore?!" Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and murmured while rubbed her forehead.
Fortunately, she only walked slowly... if she dashed with her full speed before crashed her forehead onto the blood-colored barrier, she would probably have an extra big bump on her forehead right now.
Tang Li Xue opened her right palm, and a cluster of the deep-blue me of pride has bloomed on the top of her palm.
The intense scorching temperature from the deep-blue me was spreading out made the surrounding temperature rising rapidly.
Tang Li Xue pushed the deep-blue me of pride on her palm to the blood-colored barrier in front of her.
crrrrssss~~!!!
The moment when the deep-blue me of pride touched the blood-colored barrier, it made horrible sizzling sounds.
Tang Li Xue thought her deep-blue me of pride would definitely more than capable of evaporating a portion of this blood-colored barrier and made a hole for her to enter back into the city.
But she immediately realized that she was severely underestimated the might of this blood-colored barrier in front of her!
The deep-blue me of pride really managed to evaporate the small portion of the blood-colored barrier and turned it into the blood-colored fog, leaving a fist-sized hole in the blood-colored barrier.
But the blood-colored fog immediately wrapped the deep-blue me of pride and turned back into the blood-colored liquid.
It looked as if the blood-colored liquid swallowed the deep-blue me of pride instead!
Then the blood-colored liquid flew back into the fist-sized hole and covered it back like before.
"Impossible! It swallowed my me of Pride instead?!" Tang Li Xue yelled in disbelief.
Tang Li Xue felt a bit fortunate since she did not use her bare fist or kick to forcefully break this blood-colored barrier before.
Who knew if this blood-colored liquid would swallow her fist or foot instead if she did that¡
This was the first time Tang Li Xue met with something that could subdue her me of Pride.
Tang Li Xue knew that it was normal for the fire elemental to be subdued by the water elemental, but her me of Pride was not the normal fire elemental!
Usually, her Deep-Blue me of Pride could evaporate any kind of liquid, ice, even metal it touched into nothingness!
"This blood-colored liquid is not normal at all! Sigh¡ What should I do now to enter back into the city? Should I try to use other skills or divine abilities? Maybe [Sun Dragon w] or [Sun Dragon Fangs] can break it?" Tang Li Xue frowned and pondered carefully.
"If only I were within the city right now, I could make this barrier stop working from inside just like when I stopped that whatever heaven formation in the second trial before..." Tang Li Xue murmured regretfully.
Since this blood-colored barrier could cover the entire Quanhai City, it was clear that whatever controlled or powered this thing with energy should be located at the heart of Quanhai City.
Tang Li Xue nned to use her [Ethereal Form] to infiltrate the heart of Quanhai City and do something to stop this barrier.
Little Loki nced at Tang Li Xue for a moment and cutely tilted its furry head in confusion as if it did not get why Tang Li Xue found it difficult to break such a brittle red barrier.
Little Loki jumped out from Tang Li Xue''s embrace and gracefullynded on the ground. It leisurely approached the blood-colored barrier and sat right in front of it.
"Little Loki, that is dangerous! What are you¡" Tang Li Xue shouted in panic as she stretched out her hands to catch Little Loki before it could touch the blood-colored barrier.
But she stunned silly in an instant when she saw the unbelievable scene in front of her eyes.
Little Loki opened its tiny mouth, and the blood-colored barrier in front of it turned into arge amount of blood-colored liquid then rushed into its tiny mouth!
The scene was extremely bizarre!
The tiny little ck kitten smaller than Tang Li Xue''s slender palm could actually easily devour arge amount of blood-colored liquid!
Little Loki stopped devouring the blood-colored liquid after it managed to create arge ten-meters hole in diameter on the blood-colored barrier.
Little Loki greedily licked its lips as if it just drank a bowl of delicious warm milk.
"Nyaaa~!" Little Loki jumped back into the stunned Tang Li Xue''s embrace and urged her to enter the city with its gaze.
Little Loki clearly did not really interested in drinking all of that blood-colored liquid. It was far more interested in something inside Quanhai City.
Tang Li Xue still stunned silly, and she even forgot to close her mouth in shock.
Tang Li Xue knew that Little Loki was a big eater since it was already such a big glutton when it was still in its egg form... but this blood-colored barrier was clearly not food! It was a dangerous substance that could even swallow her deep-blue me of Pride!
Moreover, this was the first time Tang Li Xue saw Little Loki''s true ability, so it was natural for her to show this kind of reaction.
Tang Li Xue woke up from her daze immediately when she realized that the blood-colored barrier was slowly started to close the big hole.
Tang Li Xue quickly stepped inside the area covered by the blood-colored barrier, but right outside the solid stone wall.
When Tang Li Xue entered that area, she instantly felt her Qi and blood kept being drained bit by bit from her body by the blood-colored barrier.
"This sinister barrier! Don''t tell me this barrier keep draining the stamina and blood from all the people inside it?!" Tang Li Xue''s expression turned dark.
Even the quiet and obedient Yaya, who sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head, expressed that she felt really ufortable right now.
Tang Li Xue did not feel that bad since she has [High-Speed Regeneration] which kept replenishing her blood.
-25, -22, +1000, -26, -19, +1000¡..
The decrease of her HP every second was minuscule, while her [High-Speed Regeneration] skill could heal 1% of her maximum HP every 2 seconds!
But all the people inside Quanhai City did not have Tang Li Xue''s [High-Speed Regeneration]! They were also far weaker and have a lot less HP than her!
If even Yaya felt very ufortable like that, anyone could be easily imagined what those civilians in Quanhai City felt right now!
''This is really bad! The weak children could die in a few minutes! I must hurry!'' Tang Li Xue thought urgently.
Tang Li Xue tried to activate her [Ethereal Form] so she could easily pass through the city wall and slipped into the city just like before.
But her [Ethereal Form] was immediately canceled under the effect of the blood-colored barrier constant draining!
''Sigh¡ Great! So I must infiltrate into the city and stop this sinister bloody barrier from working without my [Ethereal Form]?! Who knows how many strong cultivators I will meet on my wayter?! Don''t tell me that I must defeat them one by one before facing a big final boss just like in the RPG games?'' Tang Li Xue shrugged and thought as she suddenly felt her motivation weakened a lot.
She really wanted to change her mind and went directly back to Myriad Foxes Academy if it was still possible right now.
Chapter 258: Reinforcement!
Chapter 258: Reinforcement!
Of course, Tang Li Xue only grumbled in her heart. She did not really n to go back out after Little Loki used its ability to make them enter this bloody barrier.
Tang Li Xue used her [Energy Maniption] to create a footing and used it to climb the tall stone wall.
After she reached the top of the wall, she only needed to jump down to the other side of the stone wall to enter back into Quanhai City.
Tang Li Xue used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and her slender figurended gracefully on the ground.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned grim when she saw all of the civilians of Quanghai City have already passed out. Especially the street, there were many people passed out on the side and the middle of the street.
Tang Li Xue checked their condition for a moment to make sure they were not dead yet.
''Their faces are already pale, and their breaths be weaker. If that bloody barrier keeps draining their energy and blood like this, they would certainly be dry corpses in 15-20 minutes! I do not have much time! I must hurry!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to sprint towards the heart of Quanhai City.
Her graceful figure was moving so fast, leaving several afterimages on her way.
She was carefully avoiding the fainted people lying down on the street, and her silhouette was flickering to the right and left, her speed was not slowing down at all.
But when Tang Li Xue arrived a few miles away from the heart of Quanhai City, she was forced into hiding. Because there were several people in crimson-colored robes guarded the way to the center of Quanhai City.
Tang Li Xue deployed her [Extrasensory Perception] to the maximum. She tried to detect how many crimson-robed guards guarded in front of her.
''One... three... five... eight... ten... Okay, there are many of them!'' Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched as she gave up counting on their number.
In short, there were at least thirty to fifty crimson-robed guards scattered everywhere.
Their cultivation levels were varied. Tang Li Xue could not even sense the cultivation of some of them.
However, Tang Li Xue guessed there should be at least ten worthy people among these guards, which could give her enough trouble.
Moreover, all of them held some kind of whistle in their mouth to call for help.
If Tang Li Xue recklessly charged in and defeated a few of these crimson-robed guards, the others would certainly call for more help with this whistle, and she would be surrounded by all of them in no time.
''Troublesome!'' Tang Li Xue groaned as her mind spun quickly, trying to think of some ns.
She did not even have any spare time to waste fighting against these guards...
The easiest n was to use Yaya as a diversion. Yaya only needs to draw the attention of all those crimson-robed guards while she stealthily dashed toward the center of Quanhai City.
Tang Li Xue immediately denied this n.
Tang Li Xue was already traumatized in using Yaya as a diversion since Yaya previously almost died in the second trial of Myriad Foxes Academy''s entry.
She already swore to never use Yaya as a diversion anymore since then.
"Ya~!!! Yayaya~!" Yaya flew from the top of Tang Li Xue''s head and hovered in front of Tang Li Xue''s face with a firm expression on her tiny little face.
Yaya knew what Tang Li Xue had thought. She tried to tell Tang Li Xue that the current her was on a different level from the previous her.
Yaya assured Tang Li Xue that she was ready this time and the incident like before would never happen anymore.
Tang Li Xue pondered carefully for a few moments while Yaya kept persuading Tang Li Xue to let her fight against these bad people and open the way for Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue also knew that Yaya had already be a lot stronger than before. She has already evolved into [Rare] grade and gained 3 more new divine abilities such as [Extreme Speed], [Wind God''s Eyes], and thest one which even Tang Li Xue had never seen Yaya used before, [Shockwave Impact].
Yaya was usually well-behaved and quiet, but in her heart, she was actually also itching to fight.
She wanted to try to use her new divine abilities and tested her current battle prowess too.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in the unwillingness and said with a solemn tone: "All right, you can go! But you definitely cannot go alone! Pride will also go with you. You two must work together to draw their attention, understand?!"
Yaya puffed her cheek and pouted in dissatisfaction, but she still reluctantly nodded her head to Tang Li Xue since she knew Tang Li Xue did this because she was worry about her safety.
"Sigh... if only we can call for reinforcement from Myriad Foxes Academy or have more people to help us..." Tang Li Xuemented in frustration.
Tang Li Xue could call for help from Myriad Foxes Academy if she destroyed the mission''s bamboo tube, but she would be deemed to have failed this mission if she really has done that.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not want that to happen since it also means she has failed her system''s quest too if she failed this mission!
"Ah! That is right! Don''t I have two more people in my space pouch?!" Tang Li Xue eximed as her topaz blue eyes brightened when she remembered the two disciples in her medium-rank space pouch.
Tang Li Xue went into a deste alley first before pulling out the two disciples from her medium-rank space pouch. She knew these two would definitely make a big ruckus once she pulled them out from there.
"Damn you! How dare you..." As if proofed that Tang Li Xue was right. The male disciple shouted loudly as soon as Tang Li Xue released them.
"Sssshhhhh~~!!!" Tang Li Xue put her index finger on her pink lips and signaled them to keep quiet.
The female disciple also wanted to angrily scold Tang Li Xue, but she immediately felt something was not right.
When the two disciples'' attention was on Tang Li Xue, she pointed her index finger upward.
The two disciples stared skeptically at Tang Li Xue before reluctantly raised their heads and looked above.
The two disciples immediately scared silly and yelled: "What is that bloody thing?!"
The blood-colored barrier looked different from insidepared to outside.
From the outside, the barrier looked like the curtain condensed from the blood. But from the inside, the blood barrier was a bit transparent, and anyone inside could see the scene outside the blood barrier.
Anyone inside could also see the countless pulsating blood veins scattered on every corner of the blood-colored barrier. It looked quite gory and disgusting.
"Can you two feel it? That disgusting barrier kept draining our blood and stamina bit by bit. That thing is covering the entire Quanhai City, so we cannot go out from this city anymore. If we do not stop that thing, it would certainly turn us into dried corpses in a few hours." Tang Li Xue stated the current condition clearly to these two arrogant disciples.
Tang Li Xue hoped these two disciples could hear her instruction this time and help her to distract those crimson-robed guards with Yaya.
Tang Li Xue would never believe that the parents of these two silkpants just letting them ventured outside the Myriad Foxes Academy without giving them something to protect themselves from any harm!
As long as they did not get ambushed from behind like what Tang Li Xue has done to them, they should be able to protect their own lives!
"You... You... what the hell do you n to do?! Don''t tell me you nned to fight the mastermind who make that thing and stopped it from working? Stupid! Moron! Let''s just escape out of this city quickly! Don''t tell me you cannot even break that ugly looking barrier?!" The male disciple protested to Tang Li Xue with a harsh tone.
But from his stuttered tone and trembling voice, anyone could see that he was really afraid right now.
The female disciple quickly nodded with the shivered body as if she approved the male disciple''s suggestion.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and replied with an innocent expression: "Why do I need help from you two if that bloody barrier can be destroyed so easily?! I should have already fled out of this city by now and bring you two back with me to Myriad Foxes Academy!"
If these two disciples knew that Tang Li Xue brought them into the city again after she went out of the city, they would probably strangle her to death by now.
The two disciples might be looked very arrogant and reckless at first, but their courage was almost non-existent.
They kept demanding Tang Li Xue to bring them to escape or hide from that wicked mastermind who created the bloody barrier.
After wasting her precious time in trying to persuade them for doing her bidding, Tang Li Xue finally snapped out and punched their faces with her fist!
BBAAAAAAAAANNGG~!!! BBAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
"Shut up, you cowards! You two said that ''humans are trash'', but what about you two right now? You two are even afraid to face those trash humans! Are you two really from my great Fox Race?! Because I would be very embarrassed if I have the same race as the cowards like you two!" Tang Li Xue kept mocking the two disciples until their faces turned red from embarrassment.
"Aaaahhhh¡ That is enough! Who says I am afraid of them?! I only want to remain low-profile! If I really want it, those trash humans are nothing to me! I can crush them easily with my almighty paws!" The male disciple jumped as if his fox tail had been stepped on and shouted back in anger.
"Th¡ That is true! How¡ how could we afraid of those weak humans?! Those inferior creatures are nothing to us! Let''s teach them a harsh lesson to remind them of their inferior ce!" The female disciple added timidly.
"Good! How could we, as the strong prideful Fox Race afraid of those trashy humans?! We will make sure to beat them all until they kowtow and apologize to us! Glory to the Fox Race!" Tang Li Xue encouraged them more with her speech.
"Glory to the Fox Race!" The male disciple grasped his fist in excitement and shouted.
"Glory to the Fox Race!" The female disciple''s mood was also swept away by Tang Li Xue''s speech, and she yelled enthusiastically with them.
"Defeat that trashy human race!" Tang Li Xue shouted again.
"Defeat that trashy human race!" The two disciples followed Tang Li Xue and yelled again in agitation.
''All right¡ As I expected from the two pampered silkpants, they are maybe arrogant and braindead, but they are really easy to manipte. Sigh¡ at least, they are still salvageable.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in relief in her heart.
Chapter 259: Familiar Person!
Chapter 259: Familiar Person!
Tang Li Xue led the two disciples, and all of them dashed back toward the center of Quanhai City while Tang Li Xue briefed them clearly about her n on their way.
"What we need to do right now is extremely simple. You two will only need to gather all the crimson-robed guards and distract them for a few minutes, while I would slip into the center of Quanhai City and stop this bloody barrier from working." Tang Li Xue exined patiently to the two disciples.
"It should not be hard for you two to face those low-ranked trashy human guards, right? Besides that, the strongest few people should be guarding right at the center of Quanhai City, and I would be the one who will face them all." Tang Li Xue tried to provoke their ego with her words.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had expected, these two ignorant disciples immediately became arrogant once more as Tang Li Xue''s words boosted their courage even more.
"Tsk! So we only need to face those low-ranked trashy human guards?! So boring! I thought we will face the strongest human in this Quanhai City! And you... Are you really sure that you can defeat those few strongest humans alone? Do you really not need our help?" The male disciple asked with a smug tone.
"Hahaha... Thanks for your kind offer, but there is no need for you to worry. I only need to turn off this bloody barrier so we can get out from here. I do not actually need to defeat them all." Tang Li Xue replied while giggled.
''Oh, no... Please, just no! If these two idiots make a huge blunder at the crucial timing, my reincarnated life that has just begun would certainly end! I rather have my trusted perfect copy than these two braindead idiots!'' Tang Li Xue''s mind and heart screamed in protest at the same time.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned for Yaya and Phoenix of Pride to be the bait and draw the attention of those crimson-robed guards, but now, she changed her mind since there were already these two disciples that would do that job.
As usual, Tang Li Xue did not n to show the Phoenix of Pride to any fox in Myriad Foxes Academy besides Instructor Mei Lan, so she decided to bring the Phoenix of Pride with her.
Tang Li Xue assigned Yaya to help these two disciples on facing those crimson-robed guards alone as insurance.
She also told Yaya to keep an eye on these two disciples, so they would not run away or do something strange to ruin her n and really do their job properly.
After that, Tang Li Xue stared at Little Loki, who was lyingfortably in her embrace, and said: "As for you, Little Loki¡ You should hide for a while in the system storage. This is for your own good, so please bear with it patiently for now. I will bring you out once all of this is over!"
"Nyaaaa~!!!" Little Loki squirmed out from Tang Li Xue''s embrace and shook its tiny furry head furiously to reject Tang Li Xue''s decision.
Tang Li Xue did not care about Little Loki''s reaction and opened Little Loki''s status window in her system then press the [[Store]] beside its true name.
Little Loki''s tiny ck figure vanished from Tang Li Xue''s embrace in an instant.
When all of them spotted some crimson-robed guards from distance, the two disciples quickly took out a golden pellet from their space pouch.
Tang Li Xue stared at the golden pellet in their grasp curiously and asked with a tone filled with curiosity: "What is that? Some kind of strength-enhancing pill?"
Tang Li Xue already has all the knowledge at the Beginner Alchemist level, but she still could not recognize this golden pellet''s name or function at all.
It was clear from that fact, this golden pellet was far from simple. It should be one of the items their parents gave them to protect them in the perilous situation.
The two disciples red at Tang Li Xue in disdain and mocked her a bit: "It is normal for a peasant like you to never see this kind of priceless pill."
"This pill is called Spirit God Pellet. It is made from thebination of several different kinds of spirit beast''s blood, many precious herbs, and rare ingredients. This Spirit God Pellet can awaken and strengthen the power within the user''s bloodline. It would make the user many times stronger in one hour... but the user will enter 24 hours period of weakness after that." The female disciple exined.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes brightened, and she asked with the fawned expression: "Ummm... Do you have more of that pill? Can I have some of it?"
"Do you think this priceless pill is a cabbage or something?! No, each of us only has one!" The female disciple replied with a tone filled with displeasure.
Both of them quickly popped the Spirit God Pellet into their mouth as if they were afraid that Tang Li Xue would rob it from them.
''Tsk! Cheapskate! Ah, what a waste! That golden pill will be more useful if I am the one who used it! Such a shame...'' Tang Li Xue puckered her pink lips and pouted.
After they swallowed that golden pill, the face of those two disciples turned red and savage.
They immediately turned back into their fox form and howled loudly.
AAAWWWWWOOOOOOO~~!!!
The powerful beast aura exploded out from within their body as they kept howling louder.
The pressure and aura emanating from their body were growing stronger and stronger!
The two of them were clearly only at [Umon] grade like Tang Li Xue, but their current aura was already surpassing most of [Rare] grade level demonic beast!
"C... Crazy! This is really crazy! Just how powerful is the efficacy of that golden pellet until it can make those two useless foxes reach this level?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in shock and disbelief as she waspletely taken back by their transformation.
"Good luck to you two! Don''t worry about anything and go all out! Take all of those pathetic weaklings down! I will leave mypanion, Yaya here, to assist and protect you two!" Tang Li Xue whispered to the two foxes before she went hiding behind one of the stores on the side of the street.
The loud howl of the two disciples in their fox form already managed to attract the attention of all the crimson-robed guards as they started to blow their whistle loudly to call for more help!
RRRAAAAAAWWWWRRR~~!!!
The two disciples in their fox form dashed really fast.
They already arrived in front of the several crimson-robed guards when the guards only have a moment to blow their whistle.
The two disciples started to tear the several crimson-robed guards with their sharp fangs and ws!
They had in the several crimson-robed guards in only a sh!
Tang Li Xue could hardly believe her eyes as she eximed in shock: ''Holysh*t! Those two are unbelievably strong now!''
At first, Tang Li Xue was still worried if these two morons would die and their parents would me her for it, but it seemed that her worry waspletely unnecessary right now.
The other crimson-robed guards swiftly came toward the two disciples and surrounded them from all directions.
Tang Li Xue quickly took this chance to jump onto the roof. She dashed swiftly while jumped from one building to another.
Since all the crimson-robed guards'' attention was attracted to the two disciples in their fox form, Tang Li Xue could easily slip past them without anyone realizing it.
With their unstoppable momentum, the two disciples were like a pair of ferocious meat grinders. While Yaya supported them from behind, and she attacked the crimson-robed guards on their rear with deadly wind-elemental ranged attacks.
[Hurricane Barrier]!
[Tempest Prison]!
[Compressed Wind de]!
Tang Li Xue also became more assured when she nced at their current incredible momentum from afar before she went further and further away from there.
Tang Li Xue lowered her head while she kept running on the top of the buildings on the side of the street.
Many crimson-robed guards were heading towards where the two disciples and Yaya were fighting against the guards right now.
Several of them were wearing armbands, which showed their identity as the squad captains. These squad captains were surely troublesome to deal with, but she had no choice other than leaving them to Yaya and the two disciples.
With her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], Tang Li Xue managed to reach the center of Quanhai City in only one minute or even less.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~~!!!
Tang Li Xue swiftly jumped down from the top of the building and hid in the gap between two buildings the moment she heard that explosion.
She stuck out her head a bit to peek at the source of the explosion.
Then she saw two people stood on their flying sword and hovering above the luxurious manor while warily staring at each other.
One of them was an old man with white hair and wore crimson-colored luxurious clothes and a ck expressionless mask that covered his entire face.
The other one was a young man with silky long ck hair and wore a white set of clothes and a silver mask that covered the upper half of his face.
Tang Li Xue did not dare to act rashly since she did not know which one of them was her enemy.
She was forced to wait and observed the situation for now.
''Damn it! This is all because of this shitty bloody barrier''s effect! If not for this barrier, I could easily use my [Ethereal Form] to slip inside there!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart.
Tang Li Xue frowned a bit when she nced at the young guy with a silver mask.
She also did not know why, but the figure of this silver-masked man felt really familiar to her.
Then she identally noticed the jade insignia hanging on his waist with ''Immortal Sword Sect''s Elder'' written on its surface.
''What the hell?! So he was in the same group as the old bast*rd who tried to catch me before! Tsk! Both of them are bad people then!'' Tang Li Xue concluded as she gnashed her teeth in anger and hatred.
Chapter 260: (Spoiler Title At the Bottom of This Chapter)
Chapter 260: (Spoiler Title At the Bottom of This Chapter)
Suddenly, Tang Li Xue felt the Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian wake up, and it became really restless as if it met with something that provoked its existence.
Tang Li Xue quickly suppressed it, so it would not jump out from her Dantian all of sudden at this dangerous timing.
Tang Li Xue sent her thought to the Phoenix of Pride and tried to warn it: ''Woah, calm down, little guy! What is wrong with you? We will get caught by those two bad people there if you go out now!''
The old man with a ck mask on his face was frowned and took a nce at the ce where Tang Li Xue hid right now.
Tang Li Xue quickly pulled back her head and hid back behind the building.
Her heart was beating so quickly right now.
Somehow she got a feeling that the old man with a ck mask knew that she was currently hiding behind this building.
If he did not currently face the tough opponent like that young man with a silver mask right now, he would definitely chase after her by now.
''It should be impossible, right? I maybe cannot use my [Ethereal Form] right now, but I still have its [Conceal] passive effect. Combined with my [Art of Concealment], even the Core Formation Stage Experts like the uncle from Asura Demon Sect should no longer be able to detect me anymore!'' Tang Li Xue pondered for a while.
At this time, the Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian answered Tang Li Xue''s confusion, and it sent its thought to Tang Li Xue''s mind.
''What?! You are saying that ck-masked old man does not sense me, but you... and the main reason for that is because he has another one of the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
Yes, the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits could sense each other when their location was close enough to each other like now!
If Phoenix of Pride belonged to the fire elemental spirit of the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits, then ording to Phoenix of Pride, that old man with a ck mask has the water elemental spirit of the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits!
The Crimson Blood of Lust!
Moreover, it was the perfect counter elemental for Tang Li Xue''s Deep-Blue me of Pride!
''Ah! So that is why my me of Pride did not work and failed to make a hole on this bloody barrier before!'' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind.
Tang Li Xue''s Deep-Blue me of Pride should have much higher potential than this Crimson Blood of Lust since it already started to absorb the [Pure Yang Sun me] bit by bit, which generated by the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl].
But the potential was not the same with the true strength, just like the genius cultivator did not have enough strength to defeat the powerful matured cultivator!
Who knew how long this ck-masked old man nurtured his Crimson Blood of Lust, but it was already much more matured than Tang Li Xue''s Deep-Blue me of Pride!
In fact, the ck-masked old man really wanted to rush as fast as he could toward the ce where Tang Li Xue hid right now.
Unfortunately, this silver-masked young man in front of him could not be taken lightly at all even though he was still so young.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk¡ You are still so young, yet you already reach the early Core Formation Stage. It is hard to imagine what you will be ten or twenty years from now. Sigh¡ it seems the young generation will surpass us the old generation soon." The ck-masked old man sighed while praised the silver-masked young man.
"Young man, I really do not want to kill a talented young seed like you right now. I will open the way out on the Blood Draining Barrier for you to escape. You can go away safely from Quanhai City." The ck-masked old man said generously.
Of course, the ck-masked old man was not really that generous. The reason for that was because his Crimson Blood of Lust kept urging him to check that location.
The Crimson Blood of Lust did not bother to exin everything in detail like what Phoenix of Pride did to Tang Li Xue, it only said something there could make it a lot stronger.
The silver-masked young man only sneered and replied with a mocking tone: "Why? Are you afraid? Afraid that I will beat you to the pulp? Senile old man, if you are really afraid of me, then just dispel this barrier and go away with the tail between your legs from here. Out of my respect for elderly people like you, I promise to not chase you. How about it?"
"Presumptuous! Young man, I will teach you how to talk properly to the elder in the ce of your parents right now!" The expression of the ck-masked old man turnedpletely dark as he shouted full of anger.
The body of the ck-masked old man started to release the blood-colored fog.
The ck-masked old man made a few hand gestures, and the blood-colored fog immediately solidified into a giant blood-colored dragon!
"Blood Flood Dragon, go and destroy that arrogant young man!" The ck-masked old man ordered.
This was the martial art thatbined the ck-masked old man''s blood cultivation art with his martial soul!
It was really powerful and fearsome!
The silver-masked young man did not sign of anxiety or scared at all. He chuckled softly and made a few hand gestures too.
WEEEEEEEEENG~!!!
The thick ck Qi burst out from the silver-masked young man, and it instantly took the form of the giant pair of ck hands!
RRROOOOOOOAAAAAAAAARRR~!!!
The massive and majestic Blood Flood Dragon let out the deafening roar as if it felt its dignity had been challenged by those giant pair of ck hands.
It flew with lightning speed toward the giant pair of ck hands and brandished its pair of sharp dragon ws toward it.
The giant pair of ck hands countered with a heavy fist to meet with Blood Flood Dragon''s sharp ws.
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Both of them flew backward for a few meters, but immediately charged toward each other again and again!
¡..
¡
.
''Yes! Finally, they already started to fight against each other! Fiuh¡ Let''s take a detour from here and enter that manor from the other side for our own safety!'' Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, and she decided her next n in an instant.
She immediately used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to get away from here as soon as possible.
The battle between those two Core Formation Experts was too fierce.
If Tang Li Xue kept sitting and waiting here, she would certainly be dragged into their fight sooner orter.
Something like ''Fishing in the Troubled Waters'' was only looked easy in the movie or novel.
In reality, taking advantage in the chaotic battle, especially between two super experts like them were almost impossible.
Since both of them would surely save their several trump cards for thest moment when their life got threatened before using them.
The Crimson Blood of Lust inside the ck-masked old man''s body got more anxious and irritated when it sensed that Tang Li Xue and her Phoenix of Pride has gone farther and farther away from it.
The ck-masked old man got hesitated for a few moments because he felt his current opponent, this silver-masked young man was not simple at all.
He really wanted to fight all out and used the Crimson Blood of Lust to in this silver-masked young man as soon as possible without giving this young man any chance to use his true strength or his trump card.
After a few tens of seconds of hesitation, the ck-masked old man finally yielded and let his Crimson Blood of Lust did whatever it wants.
The ck-masked old man used his Blood Flood Dragon as the cover and secretly summoned out the Crimson Blood of Lust from his body.
"Remember to finish your matter quickly ande back here as soon as possible!" The ck-masked old man whispered with a stern tone.
Different from the Phoenix of Pride, the Crimson Blood of Lust took a dark crimson snake as its form.
The dark crimson snake was currently only as big as a small worm, but it could easily change its size in an instant.
Imagine if this tiny dark crimson snake entered the body of its target through any wounds, ear, nose, or mouth?!
It could do almost everything to its target!
It could control the target''s body, alter the target''s body, it could even read or changed the target''s mind or memories!
This was the true power of the Crimson Blood of Lust!
The dark crimson snake nodded nonchntly to the ck-masked old man for a moment, and it quickly turned into a red sh to chase after Tang Li Xue.
The young man with the silver mask was actually realized what the ck-masked old man has done, but he did not know the real purpose behind the ck-masked old man''s action, so he could only raise his vignce more.
The two of them kept exchanging blows one after another more violently, destroying almost all the buildings around the mayor''s mansion.
But the mayor''s mansion below them was still remained unscathed at all because it was protected by the thick protection barrier made by the other three elders from the ck-masked old man''s side.
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue kept sprinting at her full speed.
Her slender figure was flickering around while she was carefully maneuvering around to avoid any meaningless fight with the crimson-robed guards.
But not many crimson-robed guards around here anymore since most of them were already heading to where Yaya and the two disciples were.
Tang Li Xue started to feel really worried about Yaya''s condition.
She carefully tried to feel Yaya''s current condition through the connection in their mind.
On contrary to Tang Li Xue''s worry, Yaya currently did not feel scared or worried at all, she even felt really excited and contented.
Tang Li Xue felt relieved after checking Yaya''s condition. At least, she was not in any danger or wounded right now.
Strangely, no crimson-robed guards were heading toward the direction of the mayor''s mansion, although the battle there was the most fierce and intense.
It seemed that their higher up already warn them sternly to never approach the mayor''s mansion in any situation.
These crimson-robed guards were useless in the fight with that caliber anyway. They would not be able to provide any help and will only throw their lives away if they carelessly approached the mayor''s mansion.
''Watch out! It ising here!'' The Phoenix of Pride could not talk yet, but it could still give a stern warning to Tang Li Xue through their mental connection.
"What?! What do you mean by ing here''? Those red guards?" Tang Li Xue asked in puzzlement as she increased her [Extrasensory Perception]''s output to the maximum.
Chapter 261: Pride VS Lust!
Chapter 261: Pride VS Lust!
However, Tang Li Xue thought some crimson-robed guards were catching up to her, and it made her almost failed to notice a tiny hair-sized dark crimson snake like a thin needle shed toward her Dantian.
''What the hell is that?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in rm as she moved her slender body and reflexively used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge it.
The speed of this tiny hair-sized dark crimson snake was lightning fast.
When Tang Li Xue turned her body to the right side to dodge it, the tiny dark crimson snake also twisted its body and adjusted its flight angle!
It changed its course and chasing after Tang Li Xue''s Dantian as if it was targeting something inside Tang Li Xue''s Dantian!
It was toote for Tang Li Xue to dodge since the tiny hair-sized dark crimson snake was already so close to her, so she decided to face it head-on instead!
But before Tang Li Xue could use any of her battle skills or divine abilities, the Phoenix of Pride already swiftly flew out from her Dantian and collided head to head with the needle-sized dark crimson snake!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The violent collision between the two of them caused a big explosion.
The extremely hot deep-blue me was spreading everywhere, evaporated everything it touches into nothingness.
The deep-blue me could not hurt Tang Li Xue, but the powerful shockwave from their collision threw Tang Li Xue several meters backward.
Her slender body crashed onto the nearby building wall heavily like a cannonball, and the building wall copsed in an instant.
Tang Li Xue did not have any spare time to check her injuries, and her [High-Speed Regeneration] could automatically heal her wounds over time anyway.
Tang Li Xue hastily equipped her [Critical Strikers] and [Shadow Striders].
Previously, Tang Li Xue decided to not use these two pieces of equipment since she was afraid that she would be dependent on it.
She never used it even once, not even under the intense training of Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Bai Wuchen.
She did not even use it when she was facing Mogui and his team since that sparring match was not a life-threatening battle.
But now it was different, she was facing a life or death battle!
In this kind of situation, she would never hesitate to go all out!
Tang Li Xue also took several different kinds of talisman from her space pouch and used it on herself!
[Talisman of Giant Strength +3]!
[Talisman of Lightning Speed +3]!
[Talisman of Iron Skin +3]!
Tang Li Xue also used her newly invented talisman to herself this time.
----------------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Scorching me +3]
[ Effect: Fire Elemental Attack power +25%, Burning Ailment Effect +15%, Fire Elemental Area of Effect +10% for 10 minutes.]
[+1 Effect: Fire Elemental Attack power +15%, Burning Ailment Effect +10%, Fire Elemental Area of Effect +5%. Duration +5 minutes.]
[+2 Effect: Fire Elemental Attack power +25%, Burning Ailment Effect +15%, Fire Elemental Area of Effect +10%. Duration +10 minutes.]
[+3 Effect: Fire Elemental Attack power +35%, Burning Ailment Effect +20%, Fire Elemental Area of Effect +15%. Duration +15 minutes.]
----------------------------------------------------------
Different from Yaya which has her own divine abilities and level, the Phoenix of Pride''s power wasing from Tang Li Xue.
The stronger Tang Li Xue was, the stronger her Phoenix of Pride would be!
That was the reason why she used this [Talisman of Scorching me +3] on herself and not on the Phoenix of Pride.
With this [Talisman of Scorching me +3], the Phoenix of Pride would get 100% increase in its attacking power, 60% increase in its burning effect, and 40% increase in its Area of Effect attack for 40 minutes!
Tang Li Xue also activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy without any hesitation.
After finished her preparation for battle, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy used their [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and dashed hastily toward where the Phoenix of Pride fought with the hair-sized dark crimson snake.
The situation did not look good for the Phoenix of Pride right now.
Previously, the Phoenix of Pride used its extremely hot deep-blue me to attack the hair-sized dark crimson snake, and it created a big explosion upon their heavy collision.
But the hair-sized dark crimson snake clearly did not afraid of the Phoenix of Pride''s me!
The big explosion even failed to injure the hair-sized dark crimson snake since it could alternate between three forms: solid form, liquid form, and gas form.
The hair-sized dark crimson snake momentarily turned itself into the gas form, and it turned into blood-colored fog, which the main reason why the big explosion failed to hurt it.
After the explosion, the dark crimson snake changed its form once again from the blood-colored fog into a bigger snake and coiled around the Phoenix of Pride''s me body!
Yes, not only the dark crimson snake could change into three forms, it could even change its body size!
But the change of its body size did not affect its speed and power at all!
Its movement still remained lightning fast, and its strength was also very powerful!
In short, this dark crimson snake''s overall strength was not inferior at allpared with the Blood Flood Dragon created by the ck-masked old man, but it certainly could move a lot faster than that Blood Flood Dragon!
The Phoenix of Pride who was currently entangled by the dark crimson snake could not even break free from it after struggling for a few moments!
Sssshhhh~~!!!
The dark crimson snake hissed toward the Phoenix of Pride''s face. It even greedily licked its lips as if it wanted to eat the most delicious delicacy.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy arrived in time.
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy waved their hand and sent two [Moon Splitters] toward the dark crimson snake.
Two sharp cross-shaped silver lights carefully shed the dark crimson snake''s body without touching the Phoenix of Pride.
The two [Moon Splitters] easily shed the dark crimson snake''s body, but the two [Moon Splitters] failed to cut the dark crimson snake''s body!
The feeling Tang Li Xue got was like cutting the water.
She managed to cut it, but that did not mean it did be cut into two or three parts after being cut.
''What a troublesome opponent!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she frowned deeply.
This was the first time Tang Li Xue facing the elemental spirit, and she did not even have any clue on how to defeat it.
''Sigh ... I should have studied more diligently while I am at the Myriad Foxes Academy before...'' Tang Li Xue sighed in frustration.
It was already toote for her to regret it now, but she decided to read more books about the elemental spirit in the education department''s library after she went back to Myriad Foxes Academyter.
The dark crimson snake did not even bother to nce at Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy and opened its mouth widely instead!
It seemed the dark crimson snake nned to swallow the Phoenix of Pride whole in one big gulp!
Of course, Tang Li Xue would never let that happen!
She and her perfect copy immediately held the dark crimson snake''s head together.
The [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] already elerated the Phoenix of Pride''s growth by a lot.
It already grew bigger than the palm-size and already almost reached the arm-size right now.
However, the dark crimson snake adjusted its size to ensnare the Phoenix of Pride with its body.
With the dark crimson snake''s current size, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could hold the dark crimson snake''s perfectly in their grasp.
Unfortunately, their current strength was far from enough to stop the dark crimson snake''s movement.
With one single flick of its slippery body, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were thrown a few meters away.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy never thought that this dark crimson snake''s strength was so powerful despite its small size.
After flinging Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy away, the dark crimson snake opened its wide mouth once again.
"Damn it! That snake is strong!" Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
[Blood Ignition] - Quadruple Amplification¡ Active!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy activated the divine ability they copied from Hei Yinghao at the same time.
Both of them moved so swiftly and held the dark crimson snake again.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy gritted their teeth and used all of their strength to pull the dark crimson snake away from the Phoenix of Pride.
But the dark crimson snake did not budge even one bit even after Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy used their entire strength. It only felt even more annoyed by the action of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s mind spun faster, trying to think of a way to release the Phoenix of Pride out of this sinister snake''s grasp.
Suddenly, the head of the dark crimson snake magnified by tens of times in an instant!
Shhhhaaaaaaaa~~!!!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy did not have any time to react when the dark crimson snake''s head pounced at them all of a sudden.
They could not use their [Ethereal Form] under the effect of the blood barrier.
The dark crimson snake''s head movement was too fast for their [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge, and they also stood so near with the dark crimson snake until they could feel its slippery skin in their grasp.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could only activate their defensive divine ability, the [Golden Body] to defend themselves.
Chapter 262:Bloodline Resonance! Perfect Assimilation!
Chapter 262:Bloodline Resonance! Perfect Assimtion!
CHOMP~!!!
The dark crimson snake''s big head swallowed Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy upper body.
The scene in front of Tang Li Xue''s eyes was so scary like in the movie.
So the upper body of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was already in the dark crimson snake''s giant mouth, while her lower body was still struggling to free herself.
The dark crimson snake lifted the body of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in its mouth.
The dark crimson snake raised its huge head upward and made Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy position turned upside down with her pair of legs facing the sky.
The body of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy slowly entered deeper into the dark crimson snake''s mouth.
It would probably only take a few more seconds before the dark crimson snake swallowed Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy whole!
Tang Li Xue quickly canceled her [Twin Moons] divine ability to unsummon her perfect copy.
The body of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, which still stuck in the dark crimson snake''s huge mouth, disappeared in an instant after the real Tang Li Xue unsummoned her.
The dark crimson snake felt confused for a few moments when its food all of a sudden vanished from its mouth, but it did not dwell too much on it and looked at its surroundings to find its next target.
It did not even take a half-second for the dark crimson snake to lock its gaze on Tang Li Xue and determined her as its next target.
Shhhhaaaaaaaa~~!!!
The dark crimson snake bared its fangs and hissed to Tang Li Xue. The dark crimson snake was clearly preparing itself to attack Tang Li Xue.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue already took some distance from the dark crimson snake after she realized how strong that snake was.
The dark crimson snake decided to not chase after Tang Li Xue and impatiently opened its mouth once again to swallow the Phoenix of Pride in its grasp.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anger.
Thankfully, her [Indomitable Will] skill kept her mind cool and clear from any distraction so she could still think of some way out.
''Ah, that''s right! How can I be this stupid now? I can still use that!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter, and she smiled mischievously.
The moment when the dark crimson snake pounced toward the entangled Phoenix of Pride, Tang Li Xue had shouted out: "Assimtion!"
The Phoenix of Pride''s me body turned into a ball of deep-blue light and flew toward Tang Li Xue!
The ball of deep-blue light entered Tang Li Xue''s body through her chest, and the deep-blue me exploded out from her slender body!
The feeling Tang Li Xue got this time waspletely different from the previous one.
Her blood was boiling hot as if every cell in her body started to awaken.
RRROOOOOOOOAAAARRRR~~!!!
An earth-shattering dragon roar echoed in Tang Li Xue''s mind like the mythical beast rising from its long slumber.
''This is...?! My Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline is finally reacting?!'' Tang Li Xue gasped her breath in shock.
Tang Li Xue never realized before, but every time she dripped a drop of her blood onto [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] and entered the Sun Dragon King''s memories, the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] was actually also increased her Pure Sun Dragon bloodline''s purity bit by bit.
Although, Tang Li Xue''s current Pure Sun Dragon bloodline was still far from 100% purity, but it already increased so muchpared with the previous Tang Li Xue before she ever entered the Sun Dragon King''s memories.
The Phoenix of Pride and the Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline inside Tang Li Xue''s body started to resonance with each other. Theirpatibility had reached an unimaginable level, especially since the Phoenix of Pride also already absorbed a bit of Pure Yang Sun me from the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl].
The strength and heat of her deep-blue me of Pride kept rising without losing any momentum at all.
Tang Li Xue''s Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline and the assimtion with the Phoenix of Pride were working like adding fire to gasoline. It made the strength of her deep-blue me strength exploded and reached another level!
"Hot... Ouch, ouch, ouch~!!! Hot! It''s really hot! This me... I am burned alive by it!" Tang Li Xue groaned in pain.
The Phoenix of Pride who already absorbed a bit of Pure Yang Sun me had unimaginable potential, and the Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline was also divine-ranked beast bloodline, both of them were equally amazing.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue was still at [Umon] grade demonic beast right now. She was clearly far toocking as the vessel for both of them!
But the dark crimson snake did not care about what happened to Tang Li Xue or her current transformation.
The dark crimson snake felt really angry at Tang Li Xue right now!
''How dare this tiny weak creature snatch my food?!''
That''s what the dark crimson snake was probably thinking right now!
The dark crimson snake magnified its body size by many times and made it looked like a giant dark crimson python!
Sssshhhh~~!!!
The dark crimson snake greedily opened itsrge mouth.
It seems that this dark crimson snake nned to swallow Tang Li Xue along with the Phoenix of Pride at once in one gulp. That was the only reason why it erged its body-size.
The dark crimson snake pounced on the burning Tang Li Xue.
Despite having the massive body, its movement was still as swift as before!
The moment it moved, the dark crimson snake turned into a streak of crimson sh!
Tang Li Xue was still in extreme agony. Her body included her masked face turned red like a prawn and emitting a faint smoke as if she was fried from inside out.
She only realized it after the dark crimson snake''s huge mouth was already in front of her face!
It was already toote for Tang Li Xue to dodge it even with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
Since she could not dodge or avoid it, Tang Li Xue decided to attack it head-on instead!
[Sun Dragon w]¡ plus [Energy Maniption]!
A pair of colossal deep-blue colored dragon ws were instantly created from the me of Pride!
"Compressed!" Tang Li Xue yelled while making a hand gesture.
The ten meters pair of colossal deep-blue colored dragon ws has shrunk into two meters, but the heat and strength emitted from it increased by a few times instead.
BBBAAAAAAAAAANGGGG~~!!!
The pair of strong dragon ws actually managed to stop the dark crimson snake''s jaw from closing and swallow Tang Li Xue!
The dark crimson snake tried to close its mouth a few times but failed, so it nned to retract its huge head and prepare to attack for the second time.
Tang Li Xue felt the extreme heat in her body alleviated a lot after she used the [Sun Dragon w], and she immediately realized something crucial.
Oh? So I only need to release the me out of my body to mitigate the heat in my body? Hehehe... That is so easy!" Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and giggled happily.
However, the extreme heat in her body was quickly built up again and became unbearable again in only a few tens of seconds after Tang Li Xue used her [Sun Dragon w].
"Okay, big guy! Your turn is already over. It is ''our'' turn right now!" Tang Li Xue said while sneered at the dark crimson snake.
Tang Li Xue''s current slender body was wrapped by the deep-blue me. Her pair of topaz blue eyes had changed its color into the deep blue.
Even her furry tail, fox ears, and smooth silver were turned into deep-blue mes as if she was the true queen of blue me.
The dark crimson snake became even angrier after it heard Tang Li Xue''s words.
But before the dark crimson snake couldunch another attack on Tang Li Xue, she already activated another divine ability to attack the dark crimson snake!
[Sun Dragon Fangs]¡ plus [Energy Maniption]!
Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue me exploded out in an instant, and it took the form of a massive dragon''s head!
RRROOOOOOOOAAAARRRR~~!!!
The massive deep-blue dragon''s head roared out loud to the sky!
"Compressed!" Tang Li Xue shouted again while making a simple hand gesture.
The twelve meters massive dragon''s head had shrunk into two meters too, but the scorching heat it emitted out was increased by many times. Its pressure and strength also kept growing by many times.
"Bite that snake to death!" Tang Li Xue ordered out loud.
CHOMP~!!!
The deep-blue dragon''s head bit the dark crimson snake''s neck with all of its strength.
The dragon''s fangspressed from the deep-blue me of Pride was not only sharp but also have unimaginable heat!
Crrrrrsssss~~!!!
It sank deeper and deeper without any resistance while evaporating the part of the dark crimson snake into red steam!
The dragon''s fangs forcefully pulled the dark crimson snake''s neck until the dark crimson snake''s huge head separated from its body and dropped heavily onto the ground!
"Is it really over now?" Tang Li Xue murmured with a doubtful tone.
Tang Li Xue knew that she did not have much more time.
The fainted people of Quanhai City would grow weaker for every second she wasted to fight this snake.
Blub¡ Blub¡ Blub¡
The huge head of the dark crimson snake on the ground melted into a blood-like liquid and flew back into its body along with the red steam on the air.
The blood-like liquid and the red steam attached back to the dark crimson snake''s body and formed back into the snake''s head!
No¡ It was not only one huge snake head this time, but TWO!
Ppppssshhhh~~!!! Ppppssshhhh~~!!!
The giant two-headed dark crimson snake hissed angrily toward Tang Li Xue!
"Sigh¡ I know it would not be that easy!" Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth andined.
Her slender body started to burning again as the heat within her body gradually built up and surpassed her maximum heat tolerance.
Tang Li Xue hastily activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy out.
She also opened Little Loki''s window status and pressed the [[Summon]] button there to bring out Little Loki from her system pet storage.
"Nyaaa~~!" Little Loki meowed to Tang Li Xue as if it wanted toin to her.
Tang Li Xue did not spare any look to Little Loki and immediately threw it to her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue was afraid that Little Loki will get burn to nothingness if she touched it for too long.
Naturally, it was only Tang Li Xue overthinking about it. Little Loki did not even feel anything when Tang Li Xue touched it.
''We are running out of time. You must slip into the biggest mansion at the center of Quanhai City as soon as possible! There is probably a strong barrier there, but Little Loki can surely make a hole for you to enter! There should be a core formation for this bloody barrier in there, and you only need to destroy it. Go now!'' Tang Li Xue sent her thought to her perfect copy.
The giant two-headed dark crimson snake pounced toward Tang Li Xue''s direction with a speed even higher than before!
Little Loki stared at the giant two-headed dark crimson snake for a while and squinted its third eye in hunger.
The two-headed dark crimson snake immediately stiffened and jumped backward in panic. It suddenly felt afraid without knowing the reason¡ as if a snake was being stared by a majestic eagle.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nodded to the real Tang Li Xue and brought Little Loki in her embrace away from there.
Little Loki also stopped staring at the two-headed dark crimson snake and nced in the direction of the mayor''s mansion in excitement.
It seems something inside the mayor''s mansion attracted Little Loki''s appetite more than the two-headed dark crimson snake, so it decided to forget about the two-headed dark crimson snake for now.
The Blood of Lust, which in the form of a two-headed dark crimson snake could finally feel relief, but it still remained oblivious about the reason why she felt afraid before.
"All right! Let''s start our second round!" Tang Li Xue said as the blue-me dragon head was hovering above her head, and a pair of blue-me dragon ws was hovering on her left and right side.
Tang Li Xue even used her [Energy Maniption] and created tens of deep-blue me swords behind her.
She was overflowing with me energy right now until it almost burned her body, so she chose this method to spend some of it.
Chapter 263: Worst Compatibility?!
Chapter 263: Worst Compatibility?!
"Compressed!" Tang Li Xue said as she carefully controlled more than twenty deep-blue me swords andbined all of them into fourpressed me swords.
These fourpressed me swords were not only very sharp but also kept radiating extremely hot temperatures, which scorching everything near them!
"Go!" Tang Li Xue ordered with a cold tone as she waved her delicate white hand toward the two-headed dark crimson snake.
Tang Li Xue''s control over her me of Pride was already improved so much after she has entered the memories from Sun Dragon King so many times every day.
''This [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] is really awesome! I should train more often in Sun Dragon King''s memories so I can use my me of Pride''s abilities more proficientlyter!'' Tang Li Xue silently thought.
The fourpressed me swords shed and leaving a long streak of deep-blue me. They swiftly chopped the two-headed dark crimson snake from four different angles.
But just like before, Tang Li Xue got the feeling as if she was cutting the water.
In short, it was futile to cut this Blood of Lust with any sharp weapon!
Shhhhaaaaaaaa~~!!!
The giant two-headed dark crimson snake jumped forward and stretched out one of its huge head toward Tang Li Xue.
Despite its massive size now, its current speed surprisingly did not decrease at all! On the contrary, it seems a bit faster than before!
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to use her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge the giant two-headed dark crimson snake''s attack.
She even added two more skills to increase her speed!
[Phoenix Wings]!
[Fire Dash]!
Tang Li Xuepressed a pair of deep-blue me wings behind her back with thebination of her [Energy Maniption] and thepression of me energy.
Tang Li Xue even used the deep-blue me of Pride''s power to achieve jet propulsion and increased her speed by several times like a rocket.
BBBAAAAAAAAMMM~~!!!
One of the two heads of the dark crimson snake missed Tang Li Xue and only managed to smash the ground below her, but the other snakehead already chased after the flying Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s fourpressed me swords already flew back, and all of them were currently hovering obediently behind her back.
Tang Li Xue could only gracefully dodged all of the giant two-headed dark crimson snake''s attacks after she utilized her other divine abilities and skills too such as: [Auto Correction], [Extrasensory Perception], [Concentration], [Decrease Reaction-Time],[Focus], [Indomitable Will],?[Sharpen Mind], [Calction], [Prediction], and [Intelligence Enhancement].
Tang Li Xue waved her delicate hand once more, and one of the fourpressed me swords flew towards one of the two giant snakeheads.
The two-headed dark crimson snake sneered at Tang Li Xue as if itughed at Tang Li Xue''s futile action.
However, Tang Li Xue also sneered back at them while softly muttered: "Detonate!"
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
Tang Li Xue detonated thepressed me sword the moment it cut one of the two dark crimson snakeheads and made it exploded into the blood mist!
"One more left!" Tang Li Xue excitedly controlled the three otherpressed me swords and shot it toward the dark crimson snake!
This was Tang Li Xue''s true aim when she created the fourpressed me swords.
She already knew that the dark crimson snake could not be cut by the sharp weapons since even her [Moon Splitter] failed to cut it before, so she nned to blow it up like this instead!
"Detonate all!" Tang Li Xue ordered when the threepressed me swords stabbed into the dark crimson snake''s head, body, and tail.
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
The three simultaneous great explosions havepletely destroyed the dark crimson snake''s body and turned it into the blood mist without leaving anything behind.
"Is it working?" Tang Li Xue murmured doubtfully since the blood mist in front of her was giving her an ominous feeling.
As if answering for Tang Li Xue''s doubt, the blood mist in front of her started to gather and coagted!
"Sigh... So even THAT explosion is not enough to defeat it?!" Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
The blood mist turned into blood-colored liquid before solidified back into the snake form.
But this time, not only it became twice bigger than before, but it also has extra three heads!
Five-headed humongous dark crimson snake!
Tang Li Xue gasped a deep breath in shock as she stared at the mansion-sized snake in front of her in disbelief.
The ten big pairs of glowing red eyes stared down at Tang Li Xue made her shuddered slightly in fear.
''Damn it! Is your other name Hydra or Yamata-no-Orochi?!'' Tang Li Xue cursed as the cold sweat poured out from her forehead and back.
Shhhhaaaaaaaa~~!!!
The five humongous snakeheads bared their fangs to Tang Li Xue, and two of them immediately shed to attack Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and jumped up to dodge their attacks, but the other three humongous snakeheads followed Tang Li Xue''s movement and chased after her.
Tang Li Xue carefully utilized her [Phoenix Wings] and [Fire Dash] again to dodge their assaults, but there were simply too many of them this time!
She could no longer dodge all of their violent rapid attacks like before. She would certainly be a snack for these five humongous snakeheads sooner orter if she did not do something very quickly.
Tang Li Xue finally realized her mistake now.
The fire and explosion were clearly ineffective against this dark crimson snake!
Amongst all of the 7 elementals, the water elemental spirit like this dark crimson snake was the least afraid of the fire elemental. Not to mention that this dark crimson snake was not the normal water elemental spirit!
If this dark crimson snake was the normal water elemental spirit, then Tang Li Xue might still have a sliver chance of winning with her me of Pride even if that normal water elemental spirit was a lot stronger than her.
But this dark crimson snake was the Blood of Lust, another one of 7 Earthly Desire Spirits just like her me of Pride!
Trying to win against it using her current me of Pride was the same as trying to evaporate a bucket of water with a candle me!
This dark crimson snake was clearly unafraid of heat and burn. In fact, the reason Tang Li Xue could fight against it until this far was that she was relying on brute force.
In short, Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride has the worst ipatibility with this Blood of Lust!
"Tsk! Since you are unafraid of my fire, then how about water?! Come out, my martial soul! [Golden Winged Serpent]!" Tang Li Xue yelled as she finally summoned out her martial soul.
RRROOOOOOOOAAAARRRR~~!!!
The majestic serpent d in golden scales was spreading its wide wings while roared to the sky.
Although, the [Golden Winged Serpent] was not as big as the five-headed humongous dark crimson snake, but the pressure and aura emitted out from its body were only a bit inferior to the five-headed humongous dark crimson snake.
It was thanks to the Pure Yang Dragon Bloodline in Tang Li Xue''s veins, which got purer and purer than before, and it made [Golden Winged Serpent] get stronger bit by bit too, although its level was not increasing yet and still at level 1.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue still felt really worried right now.
Using her water elemental martial soul to fight the water elemental from 7 earthly desire spirits sounded really unwise, but she did not have any other choice right now unless she could summon Yaya back onto her side and enter the [War Goddess mode].
''No, I cannot! If I call Yaya back right now, those two idiotic disciples would surely be in big trouble! If even one of them died in this battle, I could never be able to exin myself to their parents! Sigh¡ troublesome!'' Tang Li Xue sighed in frustration while dodging the rapid attacks of the five-headed dark crimson snake.
Unfortunately, she could not dodge all of the five snakeheads'' rapid simultaneous attacks, and some of them crashed hard onto Tang Li Xue''s slender body like a heavy truck.
Tang Li Xue already used one of the [Sun Dragon ws] to defend against that attack, but it got destroyed by one of the five snakeheads'' heavy attack before the other snakehead smashed directly onto Tang Li Xue''s chest.
Tang Li Xue coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood, and her body was thrown off tens of meters away.
Tang Li Xue collided with several buildings behind her, and all of them copsed into ruins.
Tang Li Xue only stopped after leaving a long deep trail on the street.
Obviously, the five-headed dark crimson snake would not let Tang Li Xue go until she and Phoenix of Pride entered its stomach, so it immediately chased after Tang Li Xue and ready tond another heavy strike onto her!
RRROOOOOOOOAAAARRRR~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Winged Serpent] also chased after the five-headed dark crimson snake and bit one of its necks to stop it from attacking Tang Li Xue, but the five-headed dark crimson snake clearly has another four necks and four heads.
The other two humongous snakeheads mercilessly bit the [Golden Winged Serpent] neck and body, while the other two were targeting Tang Li Xue.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Winged Serpent] entire body was protected by its thick golden scales made it the perfect tanker for resisting the five-headed dark crimson snake''s attacks!
[Compressed Fire Bomb]!
Tang Li Xue still has one more [Sun Dragon w], and there was the maximumpressed Fire Bomb in the dragon w''s grasp!
Tang Li Xue waved her delicate left hand, and the [Sun Dragon w] threw the [Compressed Fire Bomb] in its grasp toward the two humongous snakeheads which was heading toward Tang Li Xue.
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
The explosion this time was far more tremendous than the previous four.
Not only the five-headed dark crimson snake destroyed into the bloody mist, Tang Li Xue and her [Golden Winged Serpent]?also thrown off again by the explosion shockwave.
Tang Li Xue crashed onto several buildings and buried under the rubbles, but she could easily jump out from the rubbles with her current strength.
Tang Li Xue could onlyst until now after receiving several heavy strikes from the dark crimson snake was all because of her [High-Speed Regeneration] skill.
However, Tang Li Xue still decided to use her [Talisman of Regeneration +3] on herself to speed up her injuries recovery.
Somehow, her instinct told her that this battle was still far from over.
Tang Li Xue''s heart sank when the blood mist gathered and coagted again into blood liquid just like before.
The blood liquid solidified and took the snake''s form almost twice bigger than before!
Nine humongous heads!
Nine -headed dark crimson snake!
It seems the dark crimson snake thought that five snakeheads were not enough to defeat and eat Tang Li Xue, so it decided to add four more this time!
Tang Li Xue shook her head and smiled full of irony.
She silently prayed in her heart: ''Oh¡ My¡God! I am really going to die this time if this keep continues like this! My perfect copy¡ You are my only hope! Please hurry up before I really got eaten by this ugly snake!''
Chapter 264: The Enemy Of My Enemy Is My Friend!
Chapter 264: The Enemy Of My Enemy Is My Friend!
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy dashed toward the mayor''s mansion with her full speed.
She even used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] continuously without caring about her current stamina.
''There it is!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought as she halted her step.
There was the thin transparent red barrier that covered the mayor''s mansion like a giant dome. This was the reason why the mayor''s mansion still intact until now even when the two powerful Core Formation Stage Experts were fighting near its entrance.
This red barrier might look thin and transparentpared with the giant bloody barrier which covered the entire Quanhai City, but the former certainly much stronger and resilient than thetter.
"Little Loki, I can only count on you right now! Can you¡" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tried to ask Little Loki in her embrace for help, but before she could finish her words, Little Loki already opened its tiny mouth.
The thin red barrier in front of them started to distort, and a part of the thin red barrier was sucked into Little Loki''s mouth.
The scene was really bizarre and hard to believe.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already saw this once from the real Tang Li Xue''s memories when Little Loki sucked the bloody barrier outside Quanhai City before, so she did not feel that surprised anymore now.
Little Loki stopped devouring the thin red barrier after it managed to create therge five-meter hole in diameter on the barrier.
Therge five-meter hole started to slowly close again, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not waste any more time and jumped over the stone wall to enter the mayor''s mansion without any hesitation.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still could not use her [Ethereal Form], but her [Art of Concealment] helped a lot this time since all of the crimson-robed guards in the mayor''s mansion could not even detect her presence.
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and shed toward the crimson-robed guards who were currently guarding at the back door in an instant.
Her slender palm danced around and three jade-like swords instantly created from her [Energy Maniption] divine ability.
The three jade-like swords moved so swiftly and in all the crimson-robed guards in front of the door before they could even unsheathe their weapons.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy entered the mayor''s mansion through this back door. It actually led her to the kitchen.
There was nothing worth her notice here, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sprinted deeper into the mansion.
After passed through the long corridor and stepped into the big hall at the center of the mansion, Tang Li Xue started to feel dizzy because there were so many doors and stairs here.
"Tsk! This mansion is surprisingly quite big! But I don''t have any more time to y hide and seek here! The heck¡ I do not even know what I am searching for now?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy murmured in frustration as her three jade-like swords moved swiftly and in a few crimson-robed guards in the hall easily.
There were clearly no strong guards in this mansion and the number of crimson-robed guards here was also too little. It seems the leader of these mysterious groups had a lot of confidence in their thin red barrier outside.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still confused about what to do¡
"Nyaaa~~!!!" Little Loki licked the smooth wrist of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nced at Little Loki in her embrace andforted it: "Little Loki, I know you must be hungry now, but we have something important to do right now, so please be patient. I will surely buy you a lot of delicious foods after this, okay?"
"Nya~ Nya~!!!" Little Loki pointed its tiny paws toward the stair on the south area, and then it pointed its tiny paws again upward.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned and looked at Little Loki skeptically before asking: "You mean we must climbing up that stairs and heading to the higher floor?"
"Nyaw~~!!!" Little Loki nodded its tiny furry head cutely.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hesitated for a few moments before decided to follow Little Loki''s instruction.
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not dare to let her guard''s down at all, and she kept mobilizing her [Extrasensory Perception] at the maximum ever since she entered this mansion until now.
It was quite tiring, but she did not want to fall into any trap in the middle of the enemy''s ce.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy climbed the stair to the second floor, and she followed the direction where Little Loki pointed to her.
However, when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy turned to the right at the intersection in the long corridor¡
''DANGER~!!!''
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy reflexively used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and tilted her flexible slender body to the left side.
A silver spear thrust toward the perfect copy''s head from behind!
The silver spear should have missed Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy now, but the tip quickly changed its trajectory in an instant and chased after the perfect copy''s neck right now!
The sensing ability of [Extrasensory Perception] was very sharp, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could already feel it a few milliseconds before it changed trajectory!
''Shit! This person is good!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined in her heart.
[Auto Correction]!
[0.53 degree to the right¡ Correction¡]
With the power of this divine ability, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy subconsciously lowered her knees for a bit.
BBAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
The silver spear grazed Tang Li Xue''s fox mask and embedded deeply onto the wall on her right side.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy turned around to see her attacker, while the three jade-like swords which kept hovering above her shed toward her attacker!
The attacker pulled his silver spear and quickly jumped a few steps backward to keep his distance with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but the three flying jade-like swords kept chasing after him.
The attacker stabbed his silver spear rapidly, and his quick martial arts created many silver glowing afterimages of his silver spears!
BAAANG~!!! BAAANG~!!! BAAANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not put much energy into creating these three swords before, and she did not even use elementalpression on creating it either, so the attacker''s counterattack managed to shatter her three jade-like swords into countless pieces like ss.
Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡
The fox mask on Tang Li Xue''s face cracked and shattered too.
The previous attack had actually left several tiny cracks on her fox mask, but it only crumbled now after the tiny cracks had spread now.
Even her ck hood flew backward a bit because of the shockwave before.
Thankfully, her pair of furry fox ears were still covered by her ck hood.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was in a hurry, so she did not have any time to cover her peerlessly beautiful face like the shy human girl right now.
She wanted to kill this attacker as fast as possible, but she stiffened when she saw her attacker.
''This person is¡ the handsome man who saved that blood witch from the several rapers before!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in her mind.
Yes, this person''s identity was actually Ye Zhen, the Immortal Sword Sect''s Core Disciple.
Just like Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Ye Zhen also secretly sneaked into this mansion, while the elder from his Immortal Sword Sect, Elder Yang, was fighting to distract the ck-masked old man outside.
Unlike Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Ye Zhen used a spatial-type treasure to bypass the thin red barrier outside the mansion.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stared at the jade insignia on Ye Zhen''s waist and read the ''Immortal Sword Sect''s Core Disciple'' written on its surface.
While Ye Zhen waspletely stunned by Tang Li Xue''s appearance after her fox mask was destroyed.
Clear and delicate smooth skin as white as snow¡
Seductive pinkish lips like ripe cherry blossom...
Mesmerizing pair of topaz blue eyes filled with innocence charm without any impurities and long silver eyshes¡
Her silky silver hair and eyebrows matched really perfectly with her milky snow skin enhanced her peerless beauty by many times.
The innocent-looking maiden in front of him clearly possessed the matchless beauty that could make any fairies, flowers, and stars lost their charms.
Since his birth until now, all in Ye Zhen''s head was only about martial arts and cultivation.
The only person he ever admired was Elder Yang.
Even the almost naked blood witch from before was failed to move Ye Zhen''s heart.
But right at this moment¡ he had finally found someone who could make him even more infatuated than martial arts and cultivation.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already knew that the man in front of her must have been captivated by her beauty just like what happened to Mogui before.
She could even make a sneaky move to kill this man right now, and she has more than 80% chance of sess, but she chose not to do it in the end.
''This person is the core disciple from Immortal Sword Sect. He should be in the same group as the Elder of Immortal Sword Sect outside. His goal should be the same as mine! To stop this blood barrier!'' Tang Li Xue''s eyes brightened after she realized it.
''The enemy of my enemy is my friend! Two people are clearly better than one! If I offer him to cooperate with me, he should be happy to ept it, right?! Our purpose is the same after all!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought.
Chapter 265: Black Shard!
Chapter 265: ck Shard!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy cleared her throat and smiled gently at Ye Zhen while nervously pulled her ck hood a bit and make sure that her silver fox ears were still covered by it.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gave a palm fist salute to the handsome disciple and greeted him with a polite tone: "Xiao Xue greets the young hero of the Immortal Sword Sect. Xiao Xue believes there is a misunderstanding between us."
Of course, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was not stupid enough to mention her real full name here...
Tang Li Xue''s greets woke Ye Zhen from his daze, and he almost dropped the silver spear in his grasp.
Tang Li Xue''s sweet voice and gentle smile made Ye Zhen adored her even more.
Ye Zhen opened his mouth several times and tried to greet Tang Li Xue too, but no voice came out from his throat.
It seemed he was too nervous now and even forgot how to talk.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought Ye Zhen did not believe her words, so she tried to exin herself again: "Xiao Xue is a wandering cultivator and only wants to stay for a few days in this Quanhai City. Who knows that the viins from the demon sect would set their eyes on this city, so of course, Xiao Xue could not just stay quiet and do nothing."
"Thus, Xiao Xue slipped into this building to stop these viins from the demon sect in the hope of saving Quanhai City''s people. Xiao Xue believes the young hero of the Immortal Sword Sect should have the same objective as Xiao Xue, right?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy concluded her exnation.
Ye Zhen felt really awkward and embarrassed right now. Even his face turned red because of it.
He did not only sneak attack this nice and beautiful girl from behind before but he also almost killed this innocent girl.
Ye Zhen coughed a few times to calm his extremely fast heartbeat, which almost leaped out from his mouth before he replied to Tang Li Xue: "Greetings to Young Miss Xiao Xue! You can call me Ye Zhen. I really have to apologize to you first. I almost hurt you before because of my reckless behavior, and I even attacked you from behind."
"Young Master Ye Zhen does not have to worry about that. I understand it very clearly because I will definitely do the same as you if our situation was reversed before. Let''s forget it and focus on what we need to do now. Honestly... I think we do not have much time left right now. How about we cooperate to defeat these viins from the demon sect? I am sure we can do it faster that way." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy offered to work together.
The mind of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and the real Tang Li Xue were connected, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy knew that her real self was in a dangerous situation right now.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not want to waste any more of her time to fight or talk to this disciple of the Immortal Sword Sect, so she decided to offer cooperation with him without further ado.
"Of course, I would dly do that! Please do not worry, Young Miss Xiao Xue! I, Ye Zhen, will surely protect you from any harm!" Ye Zhen''s eyes shone brighter in delight, and he replied with a tone full of excitement.
Ye Zhen admired Tang Li Xue even more now. Not only she was extremely beautiful, but she was also righteous and brave.
In the cultivation world, the woman who was too meek and fainthearted did not well-liked by the strong cultivator.
Any strong cultivator would certainly want to find a lifepanion who could follow by their side and not someone who will be their burden.
Of course, Ye Zhen also felt the same as them, and someone like Tang Li Xue matched his taste perfectly.
While Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes when she heard Ye Zhen would protect her.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not bother to argue with Ye Zhen and patted Little Loki''s furry head.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not notice that Little Loki in her embrace stared at Ye Zhen with its third eye in annoyance.
Ye Zhen felt really nervous when he stood side by side with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
He took out a Fengshui Compass from his spatial ring. It seems he would use this Fengshui Compass to determine their direction.
"Young Miss Xiao Xue, things will get more dangerous from now, on so please follow me from behind closely!" Ye Zhen kindly reminded Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only nodded and stood closer to Ye Zhen before she used her [Energy Maniption] to make another fox mask to cover her face.
Ye Zhen felt even more nervous as Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stood so close to him right now.
The atmosphere was really awkward, but both of them kept heading deeper and deeper into the second-floor mansion.
They met with several crimson-robed guards guarding at the long corridor, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Ye Zhen could easily defeat them.
It took them less than one minute to reach a big hall on the second floor.
Ye Zhen hurriedly raised his palm to stop Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from advancing and put his index finger onto his lips then whispered: "Shhh... we are here!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly halted her step and peeked at the big hall from behind the corridor.
There was a small blood pool in the middle of the big hall.
Two people sat in the lotus position beside the small blood pool while kept chanting the unknown mantra.
There was also a ck shard fragment hovering above the small blood pool.
The ck shard emitted a frightening amount of sinister aura.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Ye Zhen felt suffocating now because of that aura.
They could even see the thick crimson aura from the ck shard flowing out to the hole on the ceiling and connected to the two barriers outside, the barrier which protected the mansion and the barrier which covered the entire Quanhai City.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her eyes in surprise when she stared at the ck shard.
''That is... THE FRAGMENT OF DIVINE TREASURE!!!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy astounded and screamed in her heart.
Even Little Loki in Tang Li Xue''s embrace raised its furry head and greedily stared at the ck shard as if it could not wait to swallow that shard in its mouth.
"The cultivation of those two masked people is high. They must be the elders of the demon sect. But the situation is not really that hopeless yet. They put all of their attention on the ck thing at the center of that blood pool. If we can sessfullynd a sudden fatal attack on one of them, we will have the chance to turn the table." Ye Zhen whispered Tang Li Xue his n.
Ye Zhen could not see the current cultivation of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy because of her [Conceal] passive divine ability, but he could guess that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was quite strong since she could dodge his all-out sneak attack before.
"All right, I understand! Who will attack first, you or me? Or maybe we should attack together?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nodded and asked Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen shook his head and replied: "It is too dangerous. Who knows if they set some traps there, so I will be the one who attacks first! You can attack after me, but be sure to aim for the one I attacked, understand? We must finish one of them as soon as possible."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to refuse the idea since she has better stealth ability with her [Conceal] passive divine ability and partially learned the [Art of Concealment], but Ye Zhen already jumped out from their hiding ce and shed toward the man with a skull mask with his silver spear in his grasp.
Actually, Ye Zhen''s stealth-type martial art was not inferior at all to Tang Li Xue''s [Art of Concealment]. If not, how could he sneak attacked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from behind with her [Extrasensory Perception] detection activated?
Just like what Ye Zhen predicted before, these people from Blood Devil Sect really had set the trap to detect the intruder!
Ye Zhen felt his body touches something!
''This is¡ invisible threads?!'' Ye Zhen thought as he immediately halted his step or he would be shredded to tiny pieces by these sharp invisible threads.
However, Ye Zhen still refused to give up on his sudden attack!
He twisted his waist and threw the silver spear in his grasp toward the skull masked man!
BWOOOOOOOOSSHHH~~!!!
"Who is there?!" The two elders from Blood Devil Sect immediately realized that an intruder touched the trap they set and shouted.
When they turned their head around to look at the intruder, Ye Zhen''s silver spear already almost reached the skull masked man.
Unfortunately, the skull masked man still has a few milliseconds to shift his body a bit.
Ye Zhen''s silver spear failed to prate the skull masked man''s heart, but it managed to pierce the skull masked man''s shoulder instead!
"Arrrgghh!!! Ba*tard! Who dares to hurt me?!" The skull masked man screamed in pain and cursed out loud.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already sprinted out from her hiding ce too, but she left Little Loki at her hiding ce and strictly ordered it kept hiding there.
Her [Extrasensory Perception] immediately detected the sharp invisible threads around the blood pool, it even entangled Ye Zhen''s body right now, and he could no longer move or it would cut him to pieces.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy kept dashing with her full speed and flicked her finger toward Ye Zhen.
[Moon Splitter]!
Chapter 266: Between Life and Death!
Chapter 266: Between Life and Death!
The perfect copy''s [Moon Splitter] easily cut off all the invisible threads that entangled Ye Zhen''s body.
The perfect copy''s [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability worked at maximum in sensing the two enemies'' every movement, and her mind was thinking faster thanks to all of her skills.
''That skull masked man is injured, but that demon-masked aunt does not even help him now. It seems someone has to suppress and take control of that divine treasure''s fragment so it will not go out of control. In short, that demon-masked aunt cannot move right now!'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
The demon-masked woman did not actually look old maybe she was 25-30 years old if anyone looked at her smooth skin and voluptuous curvy body.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy clearly loathed the voluptuous woman with a demon mask because that woman has a pair of bigger ''assets'' than her.
''Humph! So what if she has bigger assets?! I am sure it will sag soon! I will take her down first no matter what it takes!'' Tang Li Xue snorted in disdain.
Despite her mind scattered here and there, the perfect copy''s every movement was still swift and precise as she used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and shed toward the demon-masked woman.
"Stop there!" The skull-masked man shouted in anger.
He pulled the silver spear which prated deeply into his shoulder and threw it toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with all of his strength.
The silver spear flew twice faster than before when Ye Zhen threw it toward the skull masked man!
BBBAAAAAAAANGG~~!!!
''Damn it!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her teeth as she was forced to swiftly jump backward to dodge the silver spear which aimed toward her.
The silver spear missed her by a few inches and plugged deeply into the floor right in front of her.
It could be easily imagined how amazing the power behind it if this silver spear hit her slender body, it would sure prate through her body.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stopped her step for a moment, but Ye Zhen already caught up to her from behind and grabbed the spear in front of her while kept charging toward the woman with the demon mask at his full speed.
The expression of skull masked man immediately turned grim, and he started to make a few hand gestures while chanting an unknown mantra with his mouth.
The blood in the small pool started to squirming and churning violently.
The sprinting Ye Zhen started to hesitate for a moment and decreased his speed, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy reminded him from behind: "Do not stop! Go! I will cover you from behind!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not want to use her [Energy Maniption] divine ability since the ability to create something out from nothing seems too eye-catching.
She was afraid this Ye Zhen would realize that she was not a human and stabbed her from behind at the critical moment.
''My [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], [Moon Splitter], and [Blood Ignition] should be enough to handle this situation for now. I do not even need to fight with these two viins. I just need to take that fragment of Divine Treasure and stop the blood barrier!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy decided on her heart.
A crimson shadow jumped out from the blood pool and shed toward Ye Zhen!
''[Blood Ignition] - Double Amplification plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not hesitate and used both at the same time.
BBBAAAAAAAANGG~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy threw a sharp kick with her right foot to the crimson shadow the moment before it could touch Ye Zhen.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy winced a bit when she felt a stinging pain from her right foot: ''That is hurt! What the hell am I kicking?! A piece of metal?''
The crimson shadow twisted flexibly in mid-air andnded steadily right in front of the demon-masked woman.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy finally could see the crimson shadow''s true form clearly.
It was actually a robust blood-colored tiger with many sharp spikes on its body as if it was wearing spiked armor covering its entire body.
''This blood tiger looks familiar... Ah, this technique is identical with how that old elder created the Blood Flood Dragon?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in her mind.
Ye Zhen did not even look at the blood tiger. He mercilessly thrust his sharp silver spear rapidly, and his target was the demon-masked woman behind the blood tiger!
nk! nk! nk! nk! nk! nk!
The blood tiger actually stood up with its two feet and used its robust body to protect the demon-masked woman from Ye Zhen''s torrent of attacks!
"This blood tiger is really tough, and its body is also hard like a steel statue!" Ye Zhen murmured in surprise.
ROOOOAAAAARRRR~!!!
The blood armored tiger roared in anger. It pounced toward Ye Zhen and brandished its sharp w heavily.
''[Blood Ignition] - Quadruple Amplification!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy raised her power output once again with the divine ability she copied from Hei Yinghao.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy ran past Ye Zhen and used her [Moon Splitter] toward the blood armored tiger!
BBBAAAAAAAANGG~~!!!
The perfect copy''s [Moon Splitter] did not manage to split the blood armored tiger in two, but it managed to leave a deep gash and push it a few steps backward.
The blood armored tiger''s sharp w also missed Ye Zhen by a few centimeters.
''Chance!'' Ye Zhen immediately took this rare opportunity when the blood armored tiger still stood unsteadily and swept the blood armored tiger''s feet with his silver spear using all of his strength.
The blood armored tiger''s body fell heavily down onto the floor after Ye Zhen squatted down and used his silver spear to sweep the blood armored tiger''s feet.
The teamwork between Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Ye Zhen was almost wless. Anyone would never believe it if they told the others that they were working together for the first time today.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also did not let this opportunity pass and jumped over the blood armored tiger toward the demon-masked woman.
The demon-masked woman was still closing her eyes and busily chanting the unknown mantra non-stop while kept making many hand gestures. Her cold sweat kept pouring out and made her forehead and back wet.
It seemed the deduction of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was right. These two elders should have done whatever they did together, but now their burden fell onto this demon-masked woman''s shoulder alone after the skull masked man got injured.
As a result of that, this demon-masked woman was currently defenseless right now!
[Moon Splitter]!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to wave her hand and threw her [Moon Splitter] toward the demon-masked woman, but her wrist was grasped by someone in an instant! She failed to use her [Moon Splitter]!
The skull-masked man has already arrived behind Tang Li Xue?????s perfect copy and Ye Zhen!
He even stopped Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from attacking the demon-masked woman!
Actually, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already sensed the skull-masked man''s presence with her [Extrasensory Perception], but she miscalcted the skull-masked man''s speed.
The skull-masked man actually used a strange martial art technique to increase his speed by several-folds for a short distance.
The skull-masked man held the perfect copy''s wrist tightly with his right hand and threw a powerful palm attack with his left palm!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could not dodge his attack since the skull-masked man held her wrist so tightly. She could only raise her other hand and activated her [Golden Body] divine ability to defend herself.
BBBAAAAAAAANGG~~!!! CRACK~!!!
The hand used by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to defend was broken, and the skull-masked man''s palm heavily struck her chest.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took a few steps backward and spurted out a mouthful of blood.
The skull-masked man did not expect that some of his attack power reflected back by Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Body], so he released Tang Li Xue''s wrist and took a few steps back too.
The skull-masked man did not hurt that much since the [Golden Body] only reflected 25% of his attack power back, but his body still felt really ufortable.
If even the skull-masked man felt that bad after received only 25% of his own attack power, the current condition of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was certainly a lot worse than him.
"Miss Xiao Xue!" Ye Zhen shouted with a tone full of worry.
He immediately moved swiftly and held Tang Li Xue''s shoulder, then pulled her back.
They were currently sandwiched between the skull-masked man and the blood armored tiger.
If both of them attacked Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from both sides, the situation would be fatal for Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
Of course, the blood armored tiger would not let them off so easily!
RROOOOOAAAAAARRR~!!!
It pounced to Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy once again while swung its sharp w toward them!
Ye Zhen skillfully spun his silver spear to deflect the blood armored tiger heavy w!
BBBAAAAAAAANGG~~!!!
Ye Zhen took a few steps back as the blood raised from his throat, but he immediately swallowed it down again since he did not want to appear weak in front of Tang Li Xue.
"Young Miss Xiao Xue, are you all right? Your hand¡" Ye Zhen said as he checked Tang Li Xue''s condition anxiously.
The right hand of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was dangling powerlessly on her right shoulder, but she still raised her left hand to signal Ye Zhen to stop worrying about her.
"Young Master Ye, I am all right! You do not need to worry about me. But our current situation is not looking good¡" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said as she frowned deeply.
The strength of this skull-masked man was a lot stronger than she expected. She did not have any chance of winning even if she joined hand with Ye Zhen.
Even if she turned back into her fox form and got three times more powerful, Tang Li Xue thought she should only have 50% chance of winning in one on one battle with this skull-masked man.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy coughed another mouthful of blood again, and she felt her wound actually got worsened.
''This¡ It seems I got hit by the strange martial art from that skull-masked man. This is bad¡ His blood energy already invaded my body and started to corrode my internal organ!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought as she groped her long-sleeve and tried to find something.
''Ahhhh! My real self! You ve driver a*shole! How can you forget to give me something really important like the talisman?! The heck, not only you did not give me any buff talisman, but you also did not even give me the [Talisman of Regeneration] to heal myself!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wasmented in her heart. She really wanted to cry so badly right now.
Chapter 267: New Plan!
Chapter 267: New n!
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue was currently facing the nine-headed humongous dark crimson snake in her fox form.
She did not have any other choice since she would certainly die if she did not turn back into her fox form to use her full strength.
BBBAAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent] was thrown tens of meters away and crashed onto many buildings on the roadside.
Although, the size of Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Winged Serpent] could be said to be quite humongous too, but the nine-headed dark crimson snake was more than five times bigger than [Golden Winged Serpent].
Fortunately, the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s overpowered passive skills such as [Golden Scale] and [Dragon Blessing] helped it a lot to withstand all deadly attacks from the nine-headed dark crimson snake.
However, several cracks started to appear on the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s thick golden scales. It seemed the deadly attacks from the nine-headed dark crimson snake was still too much for the [Golden Winged Serpent] to take at its current [Umon] grade.
But the [Golden Winged Serpent] immediately used its [Healing Bubble] to heal its injuries and restored its cracked golden scales.
Actually, this healing-type unique skill was the main reason for it to survive from the nine-headed dark crimson snake''s heavy attack until now.
[Healing Bubble]: Covered the target/wound with a water bubble to increase the HP regeneration by 300% and heal the target for 500 HP every second.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to let her [Golden Winged Serpent] use the [Tidal Wave] unique skill since the [Golden Winged Serpent] would get several times stronger if it fought in the water because of his [High Water Affinity].
But after Tang Li Xue pondered carefully again, fighting against the water elemental spirit in the water sounded really reckless and inly stupid, so she immediately rejected that idea.
Tang Li Xue really has her hands full in this battle.
It was true she could use her [Golden Winged Serpent] as a shield to protect herself for now, but the nine-headed dark crimson snake was not an idiot.
In fact, some of its nine snakeheads almost swallowed Tang Li Xue several times.
While Tang Li Xue did not only need to avoid being swallowed by it and dodged its deadly attacks, she also needed to pick the unconscious humans on the streets or buildings so they would not crush to death.
Currently, Tang Li Xue has almost one hundred humans in her medium-rank space pouch.
''Ah, dammit, dammit! Why the hell I must save all of these humans?! I am a fox right now, not a saint or goddess! Wait... I am the future goddess... a deity candidate... so saving any living creatures from cmity is my responsibility! That must be it... My karma will umte after I saving them and I can be a deity easier in the future.'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and thought.
She tried to convince herself that she did not do all of these troublesome things for free.
After throwing the [Golden Winged Serpent] away, the nine-headed dark crimson snake started to target Tang Li Xue again!
Psssshhhhaaaaaaaa~~!!!
The nine-headed dark crimson snake opened their nine giant mouths at the same time and aimed at Tang Li Xue at the same time!
''Wait... what are you trying to do? Whaaa...'' Tang Li Xue screamed in her mind when each of the nine snakeheads shot a blood-colored cannonball toward her!
[Extrasensory Perception]!
[Blood Ignition] - Quadruple Amplification!
Tang Li Xue jumped around agilely, leaving several afterimages and silver streak of light on her way while the blood-colored cannonball flew past a few centimeters from her one by one.
Even the silver fur on her body could feel the violent winding from the cannonballs'' movement.
BAAAAM~~!!! BAAAAM~~!!! BAAAAM~~!!!
Tang Li Xue saw that the blood cannonballs did not explode like the usual cannonball, but it sttered instead and be a sticky substance like super glue.
''Damn! So it wants to restrict my movement first before swallowing me now? This cunning snake! It must be thinking that I am too fast for it to catch right now so it decided to do this!'' Tang Li Xue frowned deeply.
At this time, the thought of her perfect copy transferred into her mind.
''Ahhhh! My real self! You ve driver a*shole! How can you forget to give me something really important like the talisman?! The heck, not only you did not give me any buff talisman, but you also did not even give me the [Talisman of Regeneration] to heal myself!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wasmented.
''Oi, oi, oi! That is not my fault, okay? Even you also forget about it, don''t you?! And why the hell do you call me a ve driver?! We are one, okay?! So this is our will!'' The real Tang Li Xueined.
''All right! Let''s stop our meaningless argument! Both of our situations are not looking good¡ We clearly need to think of a new n fast!'' The real Tang Li Xue suggested.
''New n?! What n?! This bloody Qi is too lethal! I am on the verge of dying now!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy grumbled.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were connected in mind and soul.
They were one and the same, but with two different minds just like two connectedputers with one user, so the Tang Li Xue was aware of her perfect copy''s current situation just like how her perfect copy was aware of the real Tang Li Xue''s current situation.
''Sigh¡ It seems we do not have any other choice other than sacrificing you this time¡'' The real Tang Li Xue sighed in frustration.
''What?! You¡ You heartless fox! How could you throw me away after you used me like this?!'' The perfect copyined with a voice filled with agony.
The real Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched as she replied with an angry tone: ''Stop whining! You willpletely recover in 9 nights anyway! Just do as we nned in our mind now!''
The real Tang Li Xue reprimanded her perfect copy as she threw another two [Compressed Fire Bombs] to counter the sticky blood cannonball.
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy pouted and pursed her pink lips in dissatisfaction.
Although she was only a perfect copy, and she would automatically recover after 9 nights, but no one ever liked the feeling of death.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood again as she staggered a bit.
"Young Miss Xiao Xue! Please hold on!" Ye Zhen quickly supported her from behind with a worried look as he channeled his Qi into the perfect copy''s body.
Unfortunately, the blood Qi invaded the perfect copy''s body was more powerful and tyrannical. Ye Zhen''s Qi could hardly do anything to it, and could only slow down its corrosive effect on the perfect copy''s inner organ.
"Elder Demoness, are you all right?" The skull masked man asked.
??Shut up! I almost died because of you! Finish them quickly and help me control the demonic fragment! I can only forcefully control it for another 5 minutes at most!" The demon masked woman gnashed her teeth in anger and shouted to the skull masked man.
"That is more than enough. I will defeat them in 4¡ No, 3 minutes should be more than enough!" The skull masked man said with his hoarse voice while snickered coldly.
''Aih¡ it seems I really have no other choice¡ Sigh¡ ''Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered in her heart.
"Young Master Ye, I am all right. Please, prepare yourself! We will attack them again together just like before. The better we finish this battle, the faster I can rest and restore myself from this internal injury." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy whispered to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen nodded to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a solemn expression.
He grasped his silver spear tighter and set his battle stance with his silver spear aimed at the skull masked man.
While the battle between them entered the final phase, which will decide their life and death, Little Loki stuck its cute head out from its hiding ce to peek at them with an expression filled with confusion.
Little Loki was a mythical beast''s cub, so it was very smart.
With only one single look, it could already see through all of these humans'' martial arts along with its advantage and weakness.
But no matter how smart it was, Little Loki only hatched out from its egg for two days! Its current mentality was no different than a human''s baby!
It wanted to jump out from its hiding ce and help Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy now, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already ordered it sternly to nevere out unless she told it to do so.
Actually, Little Loki was already drooling and wanted to eat that ck shard so badly since the first time it set its eyes upon it.
As for those two masked elders? In the eyes of Little Loki, they were nothing more than appetizers, just like the potato beside the sirloin steak.
In short, Little Loki''s current situation was like a little child drooling after looking at the delicious warm food on the table, but its mother said they would have to wait for a few more hours until dinner time.
Do not think that Little Loki does not know everything that happened when it still has not hatched out from its egg!
In fact, Little Loki knew clearly what happened when it was still an egg before!
That was including when it was greedily devoured many things in Auction House of Myriad Foxes Academy and even Tang Li Xue''s sincere vow before it hatched out from its egg!
Regarding the case about it greedily devoured many things in Auction House of Myriad Foxes Academy, Little Loki still felt really guilty about it since it brought many troubles to Tang Li Xue, but Little Loki could not help it because it was very starving at that time.
This was also the main reason why it did not dare to jump out and ate that delicious ck shard¡ because it was afraid to repeat its mistake and brought trouble for Tang Li Xue again.
It was still okay before because Little Loki honestly did not really care about what Tang Li Xue''s feeling at that time¡ until it heard Tang Li Xue''s sincere vow and felt touched by it.
No one realized¡
Not even Tang Li Xue realized it¡ that the time when Tang Li Xue was overwhelmed by the evil aura which whispered to destroy Little Loki''s egg, it was actually Little Loki''s itself who was trying to test Tang Li Xue''s attitude toward it!
Chapter 268: Little Lokis Thought!
Chapter 268: Little Loki''s Thought!
If Tang Li Xue really tried to destroy Little Loki''s egg at that time¡ she would probably already turn into a dried corpse by now!
All of the four evil monarch beasts were not only super powerful, but they were also highly-intelligent, cunning, sinister, and merciless even though they were still at their egg stage.
All of these were embedded deep into their natural characteristic and the most important part of their survivability.
Different from the egg of the other mythical creatures like the four mythical guardian beasts, Dragons, Qilins, and many other more, the four evil monarch beasts were loathed by all of the living beings in every world.
Almost all of the living beings would try to destroy them before they hatch out from their egg because of their evil tendencies and sinister characteristic.
As for their parents? All of the four evil monarch beasts were never the type to babysitting their babies or children like the other creatures. They would dump their egg in the random lower-tier world and let them grow by themselves.
As for their babies or children would be able to survive or not, they did not care about it.
''The stronger will survive while the weak will die sooner orter'' was the creed of all the beasts, and the four evil monarch beasts put this rule into work even more than the others.
Naturally, the eggs of these four evil monarch beasts should have their own ways to survive!
The options to kill anyone since they were at their egg phase or even killing the one who adopted them were one of their ways to survive.
They would keep an eye on their babysitter ever since they were in their egg phase. If they found their babysitter would do something untoward to them, such as trying to kill them, inform the deity-ranked creatures about them, and so on, they would certainly y their babysitter.
Honestly, it was hard to tell if Tang Li Xue''s luck was good or bad when she managed to get Little Loki''s egg from her system. But the system itself was not wrong since the prize from Tang Li Xue''s system waspletely random.
All the items, skills, treasures, knowledge, orpanion eggs from Tang Li Xue''s system were something the system copied from Divine World.
Except for something like [Double EXP Card], [Great Cmity Sticker], [Greater Lucky Sticker], and so on, which were generated from the system itself.
So technically, Tang Li Xue could even get an ordinarypanion dog or chicken from Divine World if she was really unlucky.
Anyway, for Tang Li Xue to survive until now and even managed to get Little Loki''s approval was surely one of the biggest miracles because Little Loki, as the cub of evil monarch beasts, definitely has a very high requirement for its master.
(Babysitter and Master were two different things. Tang Li Xue was only Little Loki''s babysitter when it was still in its egg, but Tang Li Xue was officially Little Loki''s master right now after it hatched, she gave it the true name, and Little Loki epted it.)
At first, Little Loki''s rating over Tang Li Xue was only average at best, maybe only 20 out of 100, and it never nned to ept Tang Li Xue as its master.
All mythical beasts including four evil monarch beasts have very high pride and self-esteem after all.
How could a mere weak mortal beast be its master?!
Moreover, Little Loki also heard that Tang Li Xue always said something bad about itself, like calling it a glutton egg.
She never even gave any delicious and nutritious foods to it until it was too starved and had no other choice other than devoured everything in the Auction House of the Myriad Foxes Academy by itself.
Little Loki knew that was a stupid, reckless, and dangerous move. If spirit beast-ranked foxes from the Myriad Foxes Academy managed to find it, even Little Loki did not have any confidence to defeat or escape from them all.
But Little Loki could not help it, it was too starving at that time.
Little Loki''s rating over Tang Li Xue increased quite a bit after that to 50 out of 100 since Tang Li Xue helped it by hiding it from those spirit beast-ranked foxes from Myriad Foxes Academy.
But Little Loki still did not n to ept Tang Li Xue as its master even after that incident.
Weak, naggy, wishy-washy, brainless... No redeemable features at all!
Little Loki determined to never ept Tang Li Xue as its master!
After pondered it carefully, Little Loki thought that it also did not want to kill Tang Li Xue, so it decided to only run away after it hatched out from the egg.
But Little Loki was still worried that Tang Li Xue would do something which could bring danger to it, like divulging the information about it as the cub of a powerful evil beast to the powerful higher-ups of Myriad Foxes Academy!
As the cub of Evil Monarch beast, Little Loki was notpletely unreasonable. It did not care about the life or death of any strangers, but it owed Tang Li Xue for protected it, fed it, and even used her own blood to nourish it.
''To kill or not to kill?''
Little Loki in its egg phase hesitated for a long time¡
In the end, Little Loki decided to give onest test to Tang Li Xue when it hatched from its egg!
The evil and sinister aura from Little Loki invaded Tang Li Xue''s heart and mind, whispered her to destroy Little Loki before it hatched¡
Tang Li Xue''s choice was being tested at this moment with her life at stake!
If she chose to spare the egg in her grasp, then she could continue on living¡
If she lost herself and chose to destroy the egg in her grasp, then sorry¡ it would be a dead-end for her.
Tang Li Xue''s life and death would be determined at that moment!
But Tang Li Xue did something out of Little Loki''s expectation!
"I cannot give everything you wanted before and maybe so in the future too. But at the very least, I can promise that I will never betray you if you never betray me first. I will never try to kill you as long as you never try to kill me either. I don''t care even if the entire world bes your enemies, I will do my best to protect you."
Tang Li Xue''s clumsy but sincere vow was keep ringing in Little Loki''s mind and heart.
A vow like this might sounds clich¨¦ and boring for others, but for Little Loki, this vow was the best and the most beautiful it ever heard, the one which touched the deepest part of its heart.
In the cold world that no one else it could trust, this clumsy but sincere vow was like a glimmer of warm light in the midst of cold darkness.
With Little Loki''s ability, it could feel Tang Li Xue''s sincerity and honesty in her every word.
Little Loki was deeply moved and silently cried inside its egg when it heard that vow.
In the cruel world where no one cares about it¡ Its life was destined to never be peaceful and full of dangers¡ It must never trust anyone and tread its step carefully¡ Even its own parents dumped it carelessly like trash.
Only this weak and brainless woman epted it regardless of its species and still vow to protect it even after she knew how sinister and evil it was from its presence and aura!
Right at that time, Little Loki thought that receiving a weak and brainless but sincere master like Tang Li Xue was not bad at all.
Thus Little Loki epted the true name given by Tang Li Xue and finally recognized her as its master.
No one knew¡ not even Tang Li Xue knew¡ that her vow was the true reason for Little Loki to ept her as its master, and probably no one will know it too in the future.
Currently, Little Loki was still in a deep dilemma.
''To help or not?''
Little Loki was very smart, even though it was still a 2 or 3 days cub. It already knew that Tang Li Xue in front of it was only a clone of the real Tang Li Xue.
The real Tang Li Xue was not in any danger at all.
Little Loki also knew the real extent of Tang Li Xue''s power.
With Tang Li Xue''s current strength, even if she could not win, she could definitely run away anytime she wants.
After pondered it carefully for a while, Little Loki decided not to help for now and observed the situation first.
Not only because it did not want to vite Tang Li Xue''s instruction, but also because it was hoping for its weak master to grow in this battle and be stronger as quickly as possible.
Despite all of its thoughts, Little Loki still squinted its third eye, and it was ready to help Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy anytime.
.....
¡
.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Ye Zhen already charged once again toward the skull masked man and his blood armored tiger which guarding the woman with a demon mask!
The skull masked man did not feel afraid andughed out loud instead while said: "It seems you two are really tired of living! Then I will grant your wish right now!"
The inner organs of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy kept deteriorating fast, and this would be her only chance!
Their battle was finally reaching the climax!
RRROOOOOOOAAAAAARRR~~!!!
The blood armored tiger pounced toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Ye Zhen while brandished both of its heavy and sharp ws toward them!
The skull masked man also took out the ck saber from its spatial ring, but he did not take any initiative to attack and only stood there to protect the woman with a demon mask.
"Young Master Ye, please block that tiger for a minute for me!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked Ye Zhen.
"But¡" Ye Zhen was worried about the perfect copy''s condition. He knew that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nned to fight against the skull masked man alone again.
"Trust me!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said to convince Ye Zhen.
"All right! Please be careful, Miss Xiao Xue!" Ye Zhen gritted his teeth and decided to follow the n of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Chapter 269: Impeccable Timing!
Chapter 269: Impable Timing!
Ye Zhen did not n to sh head-on with the strong blood armored tiger.
He immediately gripped his silver spear with both of his hands and used the sweeping move to the blood armored tiger''s torso.
BAAAAAAANG~!!!
''So heavy! But I can do it!'' Ye Zhen gnashed his teeth.
Both of his wrists felt really painful and both of his arms started to tremble a bit, but he still grasped his silver spear tightly in his hands.
Ye Zhen''s sweeping attack made the blood armored tiger''s heavy body shifted a bit and its lethal attackpletely missed its target.
Ye Zhen''s silver spear has a longer reach than the blood armored tiger''s ws after all, so Ye Zhen''s attack would surely hit the blood armored tiger body''s first.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The blood armored tiger''s heavy ws missed Ye Zhen by a few inches and smashed the floor beside him, leaving really deep and long cracks on it.
Ye Zhen gasped in surprise and thought: ''If that attack hit me, I will surely crush me into meat paste in one attack! I must be more careful from now on and keep the proper distance with this tiger.''
RRROOOOOOOAAAAAARRR~~!!!
The blood armored tiger roared angrily and dashed to Ye Zhen once again.
Ye Zhen thrust his silver spear toward the blood armored tiger rapidly. Ye Zhen''s rapid attacks rained upon the blood armored tiger''s body and continuously made harsh nking sounds as if striking metal with metal.
The blood armored tiger did not even budge and kept sprinting toward Ye Zhen to crash its spiked armored body with Ye Zhen''s body.
Ye Zhen instantly knew what the blood armored tiger nned to do. He immediately used his silver spear as a pole and nted it on the ground then propelled himself up.
The blood armored tiger failed to crash onto Ye Zhen and started to look around to find where he was right now.
While Ye Zhen currently somersaulted a few times in the mid-air and used all of his strength to kick the roof of that hall to propelled himself back down toward the blood armored tiger.
Ye Zhen used his current momentum plus his body weight, and he even focused all of his Qi onto the tip of his silver spear to impale the blood armored tiger''s head!
''Die!!!'' Ye Zhen yelled in his mind while gritted his teeth and gripped his silver spear tighter in his grasp.
PPUUUUUUUFFFF~!!!
Ye Zhen''s sharp silver spear imbued with all of his remaining Qi pierced the blood armored tiger''s back head and prated to below its jaw, then pinned it onto the floor!
The blood armored tiger could not die since it was not a real living being. It was only a creature made from abination of the skull masked man''s martial soul and blood martial art after all.
The blood armored tiger tried to struggle to release itself, but it was futile. Ye Zhen''s silver spear pinned its head tightly on the floor, and even his silver spear''s tip embedded really deep in the floor.
Ye Zhen already did what he could and fulfilled Tang Li Xue''s request, but hepletely spent all of his stamina and Qi in return.
Ye Zhen was panting heavily, and his sweat drenched his face and body. He could barely stand up right now.
He would not be able to escape or retreat safely from here if the n of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy really failedter. He would surely die with her here.
But Ye Zhen still fully believed in Tang Li Xue that she would surely seed.
Ye Zhen watched the battle of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and the skull masked man intently from afar, but the battle between them was almost over too.
.....
...
.
One minute ago...
The body of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was on the verge of copse and her internal injuries got worse as time went on, but she still did not hesitate to activate her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] along with her [Blood Ignition] - Quadruple Amplification.
She was only Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy. So she did not have the real Tang Li Xue''s OP bloodlines or me of Pride to counter the corrosive blood Qi which destroying her body from inside.
This was herst struggle for winning!
"Die, Little Brat!" The skull masked man yelled at the top of his lungs while shed his ck saber toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
The Blood Qi coated on his ck saber was many times thicker than the one he used on his palm to attack Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy previously.
There was no doubt that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy would turn into bloody pulp if this attack hit her!
The Blood Qi sh was very quick as it shed toward Tang Li Xue in an instant, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately got down.
The Blood Qi sh only managed to sever a few strands of the perfect copy''s silky silver hair.
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not only stop at dodging that Blood Qi sh!
She used her speed momentum and used sliding tackle toward the skull masked man!
BANG~!!!
"What?!" The skull masked man said in surprise and staggered a bit when the perfect copy''s feet hit his feet.
''Oi, the timing is really perfect now! Be sure to not miss it!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shouted to the real Tang Li Xue through their mental connection.
.....
...
.
The real Tang Li Xue, who was currently facing the nine-headed dark crimson snake in her fox form, suddenly activated her [Transfiguration: Human Form], and she turned back into her human form.
The nine-headed dark crimson snake did not know why Tang Li Xue did that, but it definitely knew that Tang Li Xue was far weaker in her human form after battling with her for more than ten minutes, and it would never miss this chance!
Nine humongous snakeheads opened their giant mouth at the same time and pounced toward Tang Li Xue as if they could not wait to eat her anymore.
''[Swap]!'' Tang Li Xue used her skill and traded ce with her perfect copy at the most crucial moment!
[Swap]: The user exchanged the position with the copy.
CRACK~!!!
One of the nine humongous snakeheads finally managed to eat Tang Li Xue, and it savored the taste of her tender meat in its mouth.
However, the nine-headed dark crimson snake immediately felt something was not right!
SSSHHHHHHAAAAAARRRR~~!!!
The nine-headed dark crimson snake hissed angrily toward the sky!
It immediately realized that it actually got cheated by Tang Li Xue!
It felt as if it was eating a dumpling while looking forward to the meat stuffed inside it, but the dumpling was actually empty without anything stuffed inside it.
The nine-headed dark crimson snake sniffed its surrounding for a while. After it finally found the trace of me of Pride in Tang Li Xue, it immediately headed toward the direction of the mansion with full speed.
This was the main reason why Tang Li Xue did not swap position with her perfect copy earlier, and why she must wait for the right timing to swap position with her perfect copy.
If the real Tang Li Xue swapped her position with her perfect copy too early, the nine-headed dark crimson snake would definitely realize it since it could sense the me of Pride in Tang Li Xue''s body.
Then if the nine-headed dark crimson snake chased after Tang Li Xue and came too early to the mansion before Tang Li Xue could defeat that skull masked man and demon masked woman, they would definitely join hand to face Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, and Ye Zhen!
It would be really over once that happened since Tang Li Xue''s team would definitely lose and be obliterated by them!
.....
...
.
The scene in front of Tang Li Xue''s vision instantly changed from the huge mouth of the snakehead to the skull masked man, who was currently shing his ck saber towards Tang Li Xue that lying down on the floor in front of him.
[Eclipse of Desire]!
Tang Li Xue used her newest power to the skull masked man without any hesitation!
The reason why Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not use this [Eclipse of Desire] before was because she could not use it, just like she could not use the divine abilities from her [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline such as [Sun Dragon w], [Sun Dragon Fangs], and [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes].
Only the real Tang Li Xue could use all of those.
The mysterious eye between Tang Li Xue''s eyebrows was opened in one moment.
In that instant, the skull masked man saw all the scenes in front of his eyes was faded away and reced by an ethereal eclipse.
The skull masked man closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, the ck saber in his grasp already cut Tang Li Xue in two.
"Tsk! Like a fly flying into the fire! What a fool!" The skull masked man sneered at Tang Li Xue''s stupidity.
The skull masked man''s blood armored tiger also managed to break away from Ye Zhen''s silver spear in a few seconds and killed Ye Zhen in one swipe of its w.
WEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
The terrifying pressure descended onto the hall where they were in, and a dazzling crimson light shone throughout the entire Quanhai City!
"We did it! We finally seeded in recovering our sect''s divine treasure!" The demon masked woman yelled in joy and happiness while shielded her vision from the blinding crimson light.
"What?! How could it be?! How could the blood of these weak citizens of a small city like this Quanhai City be enough to restore our sect''s divine treasure?!" The skull masked man eximed in disbelief.
"It seems the two people you killed before had some kind of precious treasure in their body. After they die, the energy from their precious treasure was sucked by our sect''s divine treasure and made it recovered in an instant! This is really a great blessing for us! Our sect''s patriarch would surely richly reward us!" The demon masked woman excitedly said to the skull masked man.
It was really hard to believe, but the terrifying pressure and aura that came from the fragment of divine treasure could not be faked!
When the blinding crimson light subsided bit by bit, the demon masked woman and the skull masked man could finally see the true form of their Devil Blood Sect''s divine treasure!
It was actually an exquisite crimson mirror!
The frame color was ck and carved full of tiny abstruse runes, while the mirror at the center of the frame was red like blood.
The exquisite crimson mirror slowly flew and approached the skull masked man.
The skull masked man felt puzzled and raised his vignce. He was afraid that the exquisite crimson mirror would suck his blood dry, just like what happened to all the citizens of Quanhai City.
WEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
The exquisite crimson mirror shone once again, and this time, it showed the reflection of the skull masked man wearing the luxurious garment for the Blood Devil sect''s patriarch.
"This¡ This is me? Are¡ Are you saying this is my future?!" The skull masked man trembled while murmured in disbelief.
The skull masked man stretched his hand, tried to touch the reflection of himself in the mirror with an intoxicated expression.
When he touched his own reflection in the mirror, the exquisite crimson mirror turned into a sh of red light and entered his palm.
The cultivation of the skull masked man started to increase significantly without any sign of stopping¡
High-Rank Foundation Establishment Stage!
Peak-Rank Foundation Establishment Stage!
Instantly breakthrough to Low-Rank/Early Core Formation Stage!
Mid-Rank Core Formation Stage!
High-Rank Core Formation Stage!
Peak-Rank Core Formation Stage!
Instantly breakthrough to Low-Rank/Early Nascent Soul Stage!
The skull masked man''s cultivation finally stopped increasing after it reached the Peak of Nascent Soul Stage!
"Hehehe¡ BWAHAHAHAHAHA~!!!" The skull masked man maniacallyughed as his body was bathed by the crimson light from the exquisite crimson mirror in his right palm.

Chapter 270: Little Loki Making a Move!
.....
...
.
When the ethereal eclipse light from Tang Li Xue''s mysterious eye illuminated the skull masked man, he already fell into the illusion from Tang Li Xue''s [Eclipse of Desire].
The skull masked man''s eyes turned nk and soulless, but the ck saber in his grasp was still shing toward Tang Li Xue because of the momentum and strength used by the skull masked man previously.
Before the skull masked man''s ck saber could touch Tang Li Xue, she already used one of her equipment skills, the [Shadow sh], and vanished from where she was before.
[Shadow sh]: Teleport to any shadow up to 100 meters away in an instant. Cooldown: 10 minutes.
Using the [Shadow sh], Tang Li Xue instantly teleported to the demon masked woman''s shadow on the floor behind that woman.
[Sun Dragon w]!
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to condense the [Sun Dragon w] from her deep-blue me of Pride and [Energy Maniption].
The extremely high temperature from the [Sun Dragon w] was spreading around the hall in the 2nd-floor mansion in an instant, burning all the furniture and melting all the metal in the hall.
"Who?! Wha..." Because of the unbearable heating from behind her, the demon masked woman finally noticed Tang Li Xue, who already appeared behind her. Unfortunately, it was already toote.
Tang Li Xue already thrust the sharp and scorching [Sun Dragon w] to the demon masked woman''s back!
PPPUUUUUUFFFF~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon w] stabbed deep into the demon masked woman''s back until it prated through her front chest.
The extremely hot temperature instantly evaporated the blood in the demon masked woman''s body.
She did not even have any time to feel pain or screaming and died almost in an instant.
It only took a moment for her corpse to turn into nothingness under the Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue me of Pride!
The demon-masked woman was also an expert of Foundation Establishment Stage at the same level as the skull-masked man.
It was impossible for Tang Li Xue to instantly kill her like this under normal circumstances.
Fortunately, the demon-masked woman put all of her Qi, energy, and focus on controlling the fragment of divine treasure, so Tang Li Xue could easily sneak attacked this demon-masked woman and kill her in one fatal attack.
After killing the demon-masked woman, Tang Li Xue stretched out her right hand.
Her [Sun Dragon w] flew toward the ck fragment of divine treasure in the middle of the blood pool to take it and also to stop the blood barrier outside from working.
The blood pool instantly evaporated when Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon w] flew right above it.
But before Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon w] could grasp it...
WEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
The terrifying pressure descended onto the hall, and a blinding crimson light illuminated the mansion.
"What?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise as her [Sun Dragon w] broke apart and destroyed before it could touch the ck fragment of divine treasure.
Of course, what happened now was not something good like in the skull masked man''s dream!
The ck fragment of divine treasure did not get restored, but the enormous energy inside it became unstable and started to go berserk instead!
This was also the reason why the demon masked woman tried her hardest to suppress and control this ck fragment of divine treasure before!
In fact, these people from Blood Devil Sect were trying to do something far beyond their abilities.
It was true they could pour the blood, power, and life energy from many people to restore this divine treasure from Divine World, but they did not even know how many lives they would need to sacrifice for them to sessfully do so!
What they were doing right now was no more than trying to fill an entire ocean with a teacup.
But all of that was not important anymore right now. The ck shard was still a fragment of divine treasure, so the energy contained in there was simply immeasurable.
If the immeasurable energy inside that ck shard really went berserk and exploded, not only this Quanhai City would disappear from the map, even the Lightwind Continent would suffer substantial damage!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue and Ye Zhen did not know any of this. If not, they would not dare to carelessly stop the demon masked woman or even killed her.
"Oh, no!!! This looks bad! What should I do now?!" Tang Li Xue murmured anxiously, and she started to panic when the pressureing from the ck shard kept increasingly dangerous in every second passing.
"Young Miss Xiao! Retreat from there quickly! We must get out of here now!" The exhausted Ye Zhen shouted to Tang Li Xue from behind.
Ye Zhen tried to approach Tang Li Xue, so he could pull her hand and bring her out from this mansion. But he could not even take a step closer to the blood pool because the pressure emitted by the ck shard was getting more and more intense.
The cracks already started to fill the mansion''s wall. This mansion probably could not hold on any longer and could copse at any moment.
Just when their situation was getting worse, and the ck shard in the middle of the blood pool trembled more violently...
"Nyaaa~~!!!" Little Loki rolled its third eye as if it already knew this would happen, and it finally ran out from its hiding ce behind the corridor.
Tang Li Xue could no longer stand under the immense pressure of ck shard and forced to fell on her knee, but her sharp [Extrasensory Perception] managed to detect Little Loki ran toward her.
"Little Loki, stop! Do note here! It is really dangerous! Go away!" Tang Li Xue anxiously shouted to Little Loki to warn it while waved her hand to shoo it away.
Little Loki did not listen to Tang Li Xue''s words this time and kept running toward her with its tiny short furry feet. It looked really cute, and anyone who saw Little Loki right now would have an urge to hug it.
However, they were not in that kind of mood and situation to do that. Tang Li Xue was the closest one with the ck shard, so she was currently in the most dangerous situation.
CRACK... CRACK... CRACK... CRACK... CRACK...
The mansion''s ceiling already started to copse, and the fond was the first one to fell apart.
Tang Li Xue felt her body was really ufortable and powerless as if her strength was sealed by something powerful.
She also felt her blood and internal organs wanted to leave her body and flew towards the ck shard. Thankfully, the divine treasure in her body, the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl], and her [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline protected her life to some extent.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue could not wield the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in her Dantian yet, so it could not help her much.
Little Loki went in front of Tang Li Xue and sat leisurely there.
In that instant, Tang Li Xue felt her strength miraculously returned to her body, and even all of her ufortable feeling had vanished too.
Little Loki opened its tiny little mouth, and the ck shard hovering in the middle of the empty pool was sucked into its mouth!
The immense pressure and the crimson light in the hall instantly disappeared!
Even the thin red barrier covered the mansion and the blood barrier enveloped Quanhai City hadpletely dissipated too!
Tang Li Xue nced at the hole on the ceiling and sighed in relief as she saw no more blood barrier outside.
But she quickly remembered that Little Loki had already eaten that dangerous fragment of divine treasure, so she quickly took Little Loki into her embrace and anxiously checked for its current condition.
"Little Loki is only falling asleep? Sigh... It seems the energy contained in that divine treasure''s fragment is too much for Little Loki to handle right now, so it needs to fall asleep first to slowly digest it? That is good then. At least, Little Loki is all right." Tang Li Xue murmured and sighed in relief again.
Tang Li Xue smiled softly in gratitude while kept caressing Little Loki''s soft and smooth ck fur gently.
Tang Li Xue really felt grateful and touched by Little Loki this time. Despite Tang Li Xue''s stern warning, Little Loki still chose to face the danger to save her.
Tang Li Xue gently kissed Little Loki''s forehead before she stored it in her system''s pet storage.
ording to the experience from Yaya, all thepanion pets usually recovered much quicker from any injuries or bacsh in the system''s storagepared to the outside.
Tang Li Xue stood up and patted the dust away from her white clothes and ck cloak while scanning her surrounding with her [Extrasensory Perception].
The skull masked man was still alive and breathing, but he was still drowned deep in the dream made by Tang Li Xue''s [Eclipse of Desire].
While he was in that condition, his blood armored tiger automatically canceled and turned back into a puddle of blood.
Ye Zhen was also still alive, but he already passed out. He waspletely exhausted before, so he did not have any more strength to resist the increasingly heavy pressure from the fragment of divine treasure for long.
Ye Zhen could just run away out from this mansion alone before, but he still insisted on bringing Tang Li Xue out with him, so he forced his exhausted body too far just to approach Tang Li Xue and lost his consciousness before he could touch her.
"Should I kill both of them to silence them? No¡ this Young Master Ye is a good guy. It is a shame to kill a good guy like him. His condition is stable, he should be all right. He is only passed out from exhaustion. As for this skull masked man¡" Tang Li Xue murmured to herself, but her eyes turned cold when she nced at the skull masked man.
But before she could do anything to the skull masked man, her [Extrasensory Perception] immediately sensed something powerful and dangerous approaching here fast!
"Oh, no! Those two Core Formation Experts areing here! I must run away from here right now!" Tang Li Xue said with an anxious tone as she immediately activated her [Ethereal Form] and turned invisible.
Without the bloody barrier''s draining effect, Tang Li Xue could finally use her [Ethereal Form] again to escape from here!
Tang Li Xue''s transparent body easily passed through several walls in the mansion one by one before jumping down from the mansion.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
A few seconds after Tang Li Xue escaped from the mansion, the 2nd floor of the mansion waspletely blown out, and the two Core Formation Experts were hovering with the flying sword under their feet above the mansion.
Chapter 271: Escaping!
Chapter 271: Escaping!
The silver masked young man was holding the unconscious Ye Zhen in his grasp, and the ck-masked old man was holding the dazed skull masked man in his grasp.
The silver masked young man was still calm. In his opinion, Ye Zhen was already doing a very good job of stopping the blood barrier from working.
On the contrary to the silver masked young man''s mood, the ck-masked old man''s expression was turned dark like the bottom of a pot.
He has alreadye here as fast as he could, but he still could not find any sign of their sect''s divine treasure fragment. He could not even find the demon masked woman''s whereabouts.
When the ck-masked old man checked the demon masked woman''s life tablet in his spatial ring, he realized that her life tablet had already been shattered. It means she was already dead!
The ck-masked old man''s face turned even paler. He immediately channeled his Qi to the skull masked man to wake him up as soon as possible.
The ck-masked old man impatiently wanted to ask about what happened and where their sect''s divine treasure fragment was.
There was no wound on the skull masked man''s body, so he was probably trapped in the enemy''s illusion or hypnosis right now.
The ck-masked old man thought he only needed to use his Qi to forcefully help the skull masked man to break free from his illusion or hypnosis.
But the ck-masked old man has clearly underestimated the power of Tang Li Xue''s [Eclipse of Desire] too much!
[Eclipse of Desire]: locks the target''s mind and soul within their own desire make them unable to return to reality.
(The number of targets and the might of this power depend on the user''s Spirit stat.)
(The duration of this power depends on the target''s attachment with their desire.)
Tang Li Xue''s spirit stat already almost reached 1,000 right now, and the duration of this [Eclipse of Desire] was proportional to the target''s attachment to their desire.
If Tang Li Xue used her [Eclipse of Desire] to the dark crimson snake, it could probably only affect the dark crimson snake for a few seconds at most.
But for an ambitious person like the skull masked man, the effect could probablyst for a very very long time. There was even a high chance that the skull-masked man himself chose to indulge in his own desire and refused to wake up forever.
The ck-masked old man got even more irritated after he failed to wake the skull masked man in his grasp several times.
His eyes turned red in anger and irritation as he stared at Ye Zhen in the silver masked young man''s grasp.
Since he could not wake the skull-masked man, the ck-masked old man nned to steal Ye Zhen from the silver masked young man''s hand and used the soul searching technique on Ye Zhen.
Of course, the silver masked young man knew what was in the ck-masked old man''s mind from watching his expression.
The silver masked young manughed and said with a mocking tone: "What do you want old man? Do you still want to have ''fun'' with me? Come! But I doubt that your old senile body canst for any longer!"
What the silver masked young man had said waspletely right.
The ck-masked old man already fought his hardest against the silver masked young man before, but he could not evennd any hit.
On the contrary, the silver masked young man seemed so leisurely when fought against the ck-masked old man.
It was as if the ck-masked old man was already sprinted with all of his strength, but the silver masked young man could still catch up to him while jogging leisurely.
The silver masked young man did not even summon out his martial soul yet from start to finish.
It was clear the silver masked young man did not want to use his true strength to fight the ck-masked old man for some reason, if not, the ck-masked old man should have already defeated by the silver masked young man by now.
''Cocky bast*rd! Let''s see if you can still remain cocky like now after I assimted with Lust! Lust! Where are you?! Can you hear me?! I do not care what you are doing right now, you muste back to me now!'' The ck-masked old man shouted angrily to the dark crimson snake in his mind and ordered it sternly with his mental connection.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue in her [Ethereal Form] was still being chased by the humongous nine-headed dark crimson snake from behind right now!
SSSSHHHHHHHAAA~~!!!
''Damn it! This nine-headed giant worm is really persistent in chasing me! Big dude, you cannot even see or touch me now! Just go back to your owner and ask for your food from him!'' Tang Li Xue grumbled in annoyance.
That was right.
The humongous nine-headed dark crimson snake could detect Tang Li Xue''s whereabouts from sensing the me of Pride assimted in her body, but it actually could not see her at all.
Since the humongous nine-headed dark crimson snake could not see Tang Li Xue, it could only indiscriminately attack everything ording to its sense and instinct in the hope to luckily hit Tang Li Xue to cancel her invisible mode.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not only turn invisible, but she also immune to any physical attack! Any physical attack would only harmlessly pass through her transparent body.
The nine-headed dark crimson snake already used its gigantic tail and giant nine snakeheads to sweep toward Tang Li Xue several times, but all of those efforts were futile.
Tang Li Xue wanted to run towards where Yaya and those two disciples were then brought them out from here as soon as possible, but she clearly could not bring this humongous nine-headed dark crimson snake with her!
The fragment of divine treasure was clearly a super important object for the skull-masked man and his faction, but it had already been eaten by Little Loki.
It was not hard to guess who had that fragment of divine treasure even though no one had seen the person who took it.
There were only the unconscious Ye Zhen and the skull-masked man left in that hall while only Tang Li Xue was missing from there. So both Ye Zhen and the skull-masked man would definitely know that Tang Li Xue who took it if they managed to regain their consciousnesster.
When Tang Li Xue imagined that the skull-masked man, ck-masked old man, and all of the red-robed guards furiously chased after her to get back that fragment of divine treasure. She started to shudder in fear and horror.
''That seems really bad! I must bring Yaya and those two idiot disciples out from this Quanhai City as soon as possible and go back to Myriad Foxes Academy before Ye Zhen and that masked man wakes up!'' Tang Li Xue immediately decided.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue already moved more than a hundred unconscious civilians she saved before from her medium-ranked space pouch onto a safe ce near the mansion before she got chased again by this nine-headed dark crimson snake now.
If she did not do it before, she probably would not have any more time to do it under the hot pursuit of this ferocious nine-headed dark crimson snake.
Tang Li Xue stopped to care about the nine-headed dark crimson snake and headed in the direction of Yaya and the two disciples.
Right at this time, the nine-headed dark crimson snake got a stern order from the ck-masked old man toe back to him right now.
It hesitated for a while before finally decided to¡
Ignore the stern order from its master and kept pursuing Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue felt really helpless this time.
The Phoenix of Pride already ran out of juice long ago after Tang Li Xue slew the demon masked woman before. Their perfect assimtion automatically got canceled, and the Phoenix of Pride fell asleep in her Dantian again because of exhaustion.
Although, the perfect assimtion with Phoenix of Pride did not have any bacsh like entered [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya, but Tang Li Xue started to feel her fatigue encroaching on her body right now.
Her movement became even more sluggish, and the sense of weakness was spreading on all her limbs.
''Come on, my body! Please, hold on for a bit longer! We only need to find those two disciples! Then I will enter [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya and bring those two disciples away from this Quanhai City!'' Tang Li Xue encouraged herself while thinking about her next n.
Tang Li Xue was very sure that the nine-headed dark crimson snake behind her would never be able to catch up with her lightning speed after she entered the [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya.
It only took ten minutes or so for Tang Li Xue to reach Yaya''s location.
"Wha¡ what is that monstrous creature?! Big Sis Fairy, let''s run away! There is no way we can win against that thing!"
Tang Li Xue could already hear the male disciple''s unpleasant voice from tens of meters away with her [Extrasensory Perception].
Tang Li Xue was already breathing heavily.
Her stamina was already exhausted, and her vision already turned blurry.
''Yaya! Divine Possession! Now!'' Tang Li Xue told Yaya with their mental connection.
Yaya was still a dozen meters away from Tang Li Xue, but she already turned into green light and shot toward Tang Li Xue, then sunk into Tang Li Xue''s forehead.
The four pairs of crystal-like fairy wings sprouted from Tang Li Xue''s back.
Her topaz blue eyes changed their color into emerald green, and a glittering tiara appeared on the top of her head.
The tip of her silky smooth silver hair was also dyed with green color.
[Divine Possession Duration: 00:05:00]
The Divine Possession''s duration was far a lot shorter than usual. It seemed not only Tang Li Xue, but even Yaya was also exhausted.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes when she saw the two brainless disciples ran away farther from her.
After Tang Li Xue entered the [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya, her [Ethereal Form] automatically canceled, and the nine-headed dark crimson snake could finally see her once again!
The nine-headed dark crimson snake would never let this chance go!
It immediately opened its nine huge mouths, and rapidly shot the blood cannonballs from it.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Chapter 272: Blood of Lust! Assimilate!
Chapter 272: Blood of Lust! Assimte!
Tang Li Xue''s lithe body reflexively used the [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge all of the blood cannonballs.
After entering [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya, Tang Li Xue''s movement waspletely different from before.
[Extreme Speed] already increased the effect of Tang Li Xue''s agility by 4 times, and her maximum speed by 5 times.
Moreover, she also has [Breezing Step] and [Fast Flight] activated at the same time, increased her current speed by several more times.
While the [Wind God''s Eyes] capable to see through any kind of movement no matter how fast it was, and it could even predict the next few moves of her opponents.
If Tang Li Xue in perfect assimtion with Phoenix of Pride could be described as the strongest cannon: explosive, powerful, and destructive. Then Tang Li Xue in her [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya could be described as the fastest assassin: swift, efficient, and deadly.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] could sense everything in her surrounding very clearly. She could even activate her [Ethereal Form] again to dodge all of the physical attacks easily.
In short, it was almost impossible to touch the current Tang Li Xue in her [Divine Possession Mode] with all of her skills and divine abilities activated.
Only something like arge AOE (Area of Effect) attack could probably hit her.
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure flickered several times, leaving several afterimages wherever she went. Not even one of those many blood cannonballs could even touch the corner of her sleeve.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to teach this nine-headed humongous dark crimson snake a very harsh lesson right now, but she did not have much stamina and time left to do that, so she decided to just grab the two disciples as soon as possible.
The two disciples had already been hit by a few stray blood cannonballs.
Thankfully, all of those blood cannonballs were not lethal at all, since the nine-headed dark crimson snake did not want to kill Tang Li Xue but want to eat her and the Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian.
The function of those super sticky blood cannonballs was to stop Tang Li Xue from moving around, so the dark crimson snake could eat her easily.
The two disciples were currently stuck on the middle street, and they could no longer move just like a pair of flies trapped in the spider''s web.
Tang Li Xue did not want to waste any more of her time to release them carefully from that sticky blood, so she immediately used the [Compressed Wind de] to cut a small part of the street below the two disciples and shoved them all into her medium-rank space pouch.
But right at this moment, her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed two people were flying really fast toward her direction.
''Oh, no! They areing here already?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed nervously as she stared at the sky while frowned deeply.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure immediately turned invisible again.
Several blood cannonballs still flew towards her, but all of them could not touch her and only passed through her transparent body.
"Old man, why are you running away right now? Let''s y together for a little bit longer!" The silver masked young manughed yfully and threw another fist attack in the old man''s direction.
His ck Qi condensed into a ck gauntlet and shot toward the ck-masked old man.
BBBAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGG~~!!!
The ck-masked old man created a blood shield in time with his Blood Qi to defend against the silver masked young man''s attack, but it shattered as soon as the destructive attack crashed onto it.
The ck-masked old man was thrown off several meters from his flying sword and plunged from the sky!
"Blood of Lust! Come! Assimte with me now!" The ck-masked old man shouted to the nine-headed humongous dark crimson snake below him.
The nine-headed humongous dark crimson snake turned back into its liquid form. Arge amount of blood made it looks like the river of blood, and it was surging toward the sky!
Tang Li Xue felt baffled by the sudden change in front of her eyes, but her sense did not feel relieved at all.
On the contrary, she felt in even greater danger right now.
''I must escape now!'' Tang Li Xue decided at that moment.
Tang Li Xue pped her crystal-like fairy wings, and her invisible figure flew swiftly toward Quanhai City''s outskirt.
Meanwhile, the river of blood condensed into a drop of dark blood and entered back into the ck-masked old man''s body after pierced the skin in his palm.
"Assimte!" The ck-masked old man yelled as his wrinkled old skin tightened.
The ck-masked old man looked as if he went back to his twenty years old now. His white hair and white long beard also turned ck again.
Even his scary skinny bony body transformed into a strong muscr body now, and each part of his body was filled with vitality without any sign of withering at all.
But the color of his pale old skin also strangely turned into red like blood now.
The terrifying aura and pressure radiated out from the ck-masked old man''s muscr body. In fact, he could not be called an old man anymore from his current appearance.
Even the silver masked young man widened his eyes in surprise and was stunned in disbelief after he saw the huge transformation of the ck-masked old man.
But after assimting with the Blood of Lust, the ck-masked old man also felt its unbearable thirst to devour the me of Pride.
The ck-masked old man nced at the direction where Tang Li Xue was heading for a moment, but he immediately shook his head.
"It is futile! Your target is moving too fast! We will not be able to catch up anymore! Now stop your whining and just follow my order!" The ck-masked old man said with a tone filled with impatience.
The ck-masked old man was flying without even using his flying sword anymore right now after he assimted with the Blood of Lust.
The ck-masked old man leisurely threw a palm attack towards the silver masked young man.
The thick blood Qi solidified into arge red-colored palm and reached the silver masked young man in a sh.
The silver masked young man quickly threw another powerful fist attack to counter therge blood palm.
BBBAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGG~~!!!
This time, it was the silver masked young man''s turn to get thrown off several meters away, but he quickly stabilized the flying sword under his feet, and he even gulped down the blood in his throat.
The expression of the silver masked young man immediately turned really solemn. He never thought that the strength of the ck-masked old man could improve this much.
"Hehehe... Bwahahahaha... What is wrong, young man? Why do I feel that you are not so strong anymore now? Don''t tell me this is the only extent of your strength? I will be really disappointed if that is really the truth. Come on, young man! Entertain this old man more!" The ck-masked old manughed maniacally and taunted the silver masked young man.
"Sigh... It seems I cannot afford to hold back anymore." The silver masked young man murmured softly as his obsidian ck eyes turned sharper.
"Thene! Show me your best, young man!" The ck-masked old man said with a tone full of confidence.
" Awake... Nine Petal Blood Lotus!" The silver masked young man said coldly.
The intense crimson light illuminated the entire corner of Quanhai City as the Nine Petal Blood Lotus dazzlingly bloomed above the silver masked young man!
Even Tang Li Xue who already flew out from Quanhai City stared back in surprise at the Nine Petal Blood Lotus from afar.
With her [Wind God''s Eyes], she could even look at the Nine Petal Blood Lotus clearly from several miles away.
"That is... a flower? What kind of flower is that? Why it feels so familiar to me?" Tang Li Xue muttered in a daze.
The expression of the ck-masked old man turned pale in an instant while he pointed his index finger at the silver masked young man.
"You... you are not the elder from Immortal Sword Sect! You... you are... the former patriarch of..."?The expression of ck-masked old man said while stuttered in disbelief and shock. But before he could finish his words, the silver masked young man already interrupted him halfway.
The Nine Petal Blood Lotus above the silver masked young man already transformed into a blood-colored sword and flew into his grasp.
"Since you already knew it, I cannot let you live anymore. Die now!" The silver masked young man said with a freezing tone filled with murderous intent.
The silver masked young man''s figure shed toward the ck-masked old man, and he swiftly swung his blood-colored sword toward him.
The ck-masked old man summoned out his martial soul, the [Blood Flood Dragon], and used it to block the silver masked young man''s sudden sword attack.
With the boost he got from assimting with Blood of Lust, the [Blood Flood Dragon]''s strength had been enhanced by multiple times stronger than before too.
RRROOOOOOOOAAAAARRRR~~!!!
The [Blood Flood Dragon] roared out loud toward the sky and brandished its sharp ws to counter the silver masked young man''s sword attack!
PPPUUUUUUUUUUFFF~~!!!
But the anticipated st and violent shockwave did not appear at all!
The silver masked young man''s blood-colored sword easily cut the [Blood Flood Dragon] like a big piece of tofu.
Even the ck-masked old man did not expect this kind of oue!
The [Blood Flood Dragon] was thebination of his blood transformation art and his martial soul, so the ck-masked old man''s soul got injured after the silver masked young man''s blood-colored sword cut the [Blood Flood Dragon]''s ws.
The silver masked young manughed back at the ck-masked old man and mocked: "My Nine Petal Blood Lotus is the nemesis of all blood! I wonder how you n to counter against it now?!"
Chapter 273: Sniping!
Chapter 273: Sniping!
The [Nine Petal Blood Lotus] was an extremely rare type of flower. Every kind of blood, no matter what its characteristics such as poisonous, corrosive, freezing, scorching, and so on, were nothing more than fertilizer for this flower.
This silver masked young man has the [Nine Petal Blood Lotus] as his martial soul, so saying his martial soul as the true nemesis of all kinds of blood, blood-type martial arts, or blood-type spells was not wrong at all.
The ck-masked old man immediately unsummoned his martial soul, the [Blood Flood Dragon], before the silver masked young man cut it into tiny pieces.
Fortunately, the silver masked young man only managed to cut the [Blood Flood Dragon]''s ws, so the ck-masked old man''s soul did not get injured that much.
If the ck-masked old man made his [Blood Flood Dragon] charged recklessly to the silver masked young man, and it got shed in two, the ck-masked old man''s soul would be severely injured, and he would pass out in an instant.
The ck-masked old man clearly did not want to face such a troublesome opponent like this silver masked young man in a life or death battle, so he tried to negotiate: "Sigh¡ young man, we are on the same side. Why do we need to fight each other like this? You do not need to worry. I will promise not to tell anyone about your true identity. I swear that I¡"
"Any promise and swear from the Demon Sect''s people is worth nothing! And¡ I am no longer on your ''side''! There is nothing for us to talk about anymore! You can die now!" The silver masked young man replied with a cold tone and flew swiftly toward the ck-masked old man once again.
How could the silver masked young man let this ck-masked old man go after his true identity got discovered by this ck-masked old man?
The only way to silence this ck-masked old man was to kill him!
"Arrogant little brat! Do you really think I have no other way to deal with you?!" The ck-masked old man screamed angrily as his entire body let out the blood fog.
"What a futile effort?!"The silver masked young man murmured while sneered coldly.
The blood-colored sword in the silver masked young man''s grasp shone with dim crimson light, and the blood fog was sucked by it!
The ck-masked old man became even more anxious when he saw what happened.
"You little brat! You will regret it for pushing me this far! Blood of Lust!" The ck-masked old man yelled out loud with an angry tone.
Tens of bloody hands condensed by the Blood of Lust sprouted out from the ck-masked old man''s back in an instant!
"Break this impertinent young brat for me!" The ck-masked old man ordered with his hoarse voice.
"Nine Petal Blood Lotus, devour!" The silver masked young man muttered coldly.
He gripped the blood-colored sword tighter, and the dim crimson light from the blood-colored sword became even brighter and brighter!
The tens of robust bloody hands were heading toward the silver masked young man, threatening to rip him apart, but the bright crimson light from the blood-colored sword already started to devour them before they could even touch the silver masked young man.
When the tens of bloody hands reached the silver masked young man, all of them were already withered and posed no threat to him anymore.
The silver masked young man casually shed all the withered bloody hands, and all of it sucked into his blood-colored sword without leaving anything behind.
The silver masked young man was already driving the flying sword under his feet to approach the ck-masked old man a few moments ago to deal a finishing blow. But with the help of Blood of Lust, the ck-masked old man could fly without using any treasure, and he could fly very fast too!
The distance between them was still 2-3 meters, and it did not increase or decrease at all.
The silver masked young man could not catch up to the ck-masked old man, while the ck-masked old man could not get away from the silver masked young man.
The ck-masked old man threw several lethal attacks on the silver masked young man, but the silver masked young man solved them all without breaking any sweat.
It was true that the ck-masked old man got several times more powerful after assimting with the Blood of Lust, but the blood-colored sword in silver masked young man''s grasp could render any offensive or defensive blood art useless.
The silver masked young man also threw several powerful attacks to the ck-masked old man, but the ck-masked old man was currently more powerful than him, so all of his attacks could not break the ck-masked old man''s defense.
To defeat the ck-masked old man, the silver masked young man needs to sh or stab the ck-masked old man with his blood-colored sword, but he could not even approach the ck-masked old man with his current speed.
In short, their battle was in a stalemate right now.
Suddenly, the tide of the battle changed again!
The ck-masked old man realized that he could not win against the silver masked young man using his blood art. So he decided to use something else!
Of course, the ck-masked old man did not have any other art than his blood art. If he had it, he already used it long ago.
But it did not mean he could not use any other way to use his blood art!
The ck-masked old man took out a fist-sized crystal orb from his spatial ring.
Normally, this fist-sized crystal orb was only used to store a bit amount of Qi so they could use it to replenish their Qi at a critical time.
However, the ck-masked old man was nning to use it for something different this time!
The ck-masked old man grinned slyly as he threw the fist-sized crystal orb to the silver masked young man after he filled the fist-sized crystal orb with his own Qi.
The silver masked young man did not know what the ck-masked old man wanted to do, but he was obviously not foolish enough to touch or catch that fist-sized crystal orb, so he shed it in two with his blood-colored sword instead.
BBAAAAAAAAAAAAANGG~~!!!
The fist-sized crystal orb exploded the moment it got cut in two!
The blood Qi was stored in the fist-sized crystal orb before, so the blood-colored sword could not absorb it fast enough after it exploded.
The sliver of blood Qi solidified into several blood bolts in an instant and shed toward the silver masked young man!
The silver masked young man used his blood-colored sword to defend against it, but he only managed to block most of it with his sword.
The two blood bolts embedded deeply into his right shoulder and his left waist.
"Hahahahaa! It really works! Die, you little brat!" The ck-masked old manughed maniacally and took out nine fist-sized crystal orbs this time.
Ten of these crystal orbs worth almost the same as one mid-tier spirit stone.
Honestly, the ck-masked old man felt really painful for sacrificing these crystal orbs, but he did not have any other choice now. Between his life and wealth, the ck-masked old man would obviously choose his life.
After filling the nine fist-sized crystal orbs to brim with his blood Qi, the ck-masked old man threw it all at once to the silver masked young man.
The silver masked young man urged the flying swords under his feet to retreat, but unfortunately, it was already toote for him to do that!
"Since I cannot avoid it, then I just need to face it head-on!" The silver masked young man said as he raised his blood-colored sword.
There was no sliver of fear or despair in his cold obsidian ck eyes, only indifference toward his own life and death.
But at that time, when the nine fist-sized crystal orbs flew almost reached the silver masked young man, and the ck-masked old man already shouted out loud with eager tone: "Detonate!"
Something unexpected happened!
Apressed wind arrow emitted an amazing heavy pressure propelled by the vacuum whirlwind was flying past the silver masked young man''s left side!
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
The nine fist-sized crystal orbs exploded at the same time, but all of the blood Qi contained inside it was sucked by the vacuum whirlwind!
"Wha..." The ck-masked old man was too shocked to react.
PPPUUUUUUUUFFF~~!!!
The ck-masked old man coughed out a mouthful of blood.
All of those things have happened too fast for the ck-masked old man''s brain to process, but when the ck-masked old man nced at his chest, there was already a huge gaping hole in the center of his chest.
The silver masked young man could even see the scene behind the ck-masked old man through that huge gaping hole.
"No... No, No, NOOOO~~!!! This is... impossible! I... cough... I should already win... cough... I... should have alive! I... NO! I must remain alive! I will not die!" The ck-masked old man muttered incoherently.
As if responding to the ck-masked old man''s strong will to live, the Blood of Lust in his body started to wiggle and closed the huge hole in his chest.
Of course, the silver masked young man would never miss this chance and let the ck-masked old man recover!
The silver masked young man immediately charged toward the ck-masked old man!
The blood-colored sword on his grasp shed several times, and the ck-masked old man''s body was cut into several pieces!
Chapter 274: Yayas New Ability!
Chapter 274: Yaya''s New Ability!
The blood-colored sword started to mercilessly devour the ck-masked old man''s blood.
The spirit-type elemental spirits like Blood of Lust or me of Pride were really hard to kill, but they would die too, as long as their master died.
Right now, the Blood of Lust was already on the verge of dying. It could only wiggle around and begged for the silver masked young man for help.
"Eh? This is... blood-type elemental spirit?! Tsk, Tsk, Tsk... So this is the reason why that old man suddenly bes so strong!" The silver masked young man muttered softly.
The silver masked young man already saw the ck-masked old man absorbed the huge nine-headed crimson snake, but he only thought it was one of his blood art before.
He never thought that the ck-masked old man would have something so rare like this blood-type elemental spirit.
"You want me to help you? No problem. No one can help you once your master died, you are destined to follow him too. But I have [Nine Petal Blood Lotus] as my martial soul. Only I can help you keep your life." The silver masked young man said as he smiled slyly.
"You can choose, submit to me or die here?" The silver masked young man asked with a cold tone.
The Blood of Lust was only a half step from death, so it could only vaguely form a word ''submit'' with its liquid form.
The silver masked young manughed in satisfaction and used the blood-colored sword in his grasp to give some vitality to the Blood of Lust.
The process was the reverse of how the blood-colored sword devoured the blood. It used its strength to recover the Blood of Lust instead now.
After regaining some of its strength back, the Blood of Lust flew toward the silver masked young man and entered his body through his wound before starting the assimtion process.
The silver masked young man felt a disgusting feeling creeping through his body. This Blood of Lust was a used ''tool'' of that ck-masked old man after all.
Actually, the silver masked young man did not want to touch or assimte with this Blood of Lust at all, but he also realized that he really needed to get stronger as soon as possible.
The Blood of Lust was in weakened condition after all, so it could not use a fancy technique like how the me of Pride enhanced Tang Li Xue''s constitution in their assimtion process.
Blood of Lust and silver masked young man epted each other, so the assimtion process waspleted in only a few minutes.
The Blood of Lust could finally sigh in relief. As long as it could get the recement master, its vitality would not continuously decrease inrge amounts until it died like before.
The Blood of Lust immediately entered a deep slumber to recover its lost strength and vitality.
It would probably take a few tens of years for the Blood of Lust topletely recover.
But if the silver masked young man used his [Nine Petal Blood Lotus] to help the Blood of Lust recover, it might return to its full strength much sooner than expected.
The silver masked young man took the ck-masked old man''s spatial ring and turned around to stare at the direction where the wind arrow hade before.
"I wonder... who is the one helping me before?" The silver masked young man murmured.
.....
...
.
A few moments ago...
Tang Li Xue was still flying away as far as she could from Quanhai City, but she kept checking the battle between the silver masked young man and the ck-masked old men with her [Wind God''s Eyes].
Tang Li Xue also never expected that Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes] was this powerful. She could still see the battle between them from more than 50 miles away.
"Oh, no! That silver masked man seems to be in big trouble! if that old man won, would that mean the annoying crimson snake will chase after me again?!" Tang Li Xue groaned in annoyance.
Right at this moment, Yaya suggested Tang Li Xue to help the silver masked young man.
"Help him? How? I don''t want to go back there again!" Tang Li Xue protested.
Then Yaya told Tang Li Xue to use her new divine ability, [Shockwave Impact], plus her new skill, [Whirlwind Vacuum Wave].
"Your new divine ability and skill? What is the use of this [Shockwave Impact] and [Whirlwind Vacuum Wave] any way?" Tang Li Xue asked curiously.
Yaya transmitted her knowledge about her new divine ability and new skill to Tang Li Xue''s mind in that instant.
[Shockwave Impact] and [Whirlwind Vacuum Wave] was actually a set of powerful divine ability and terrifying skill taught by Instructor Mei Lan''s mother herself to Yaya.
[Shockwave Impact]: The power to create or control the sharp change of pressure caused by the wind, air, explosion, or sound.
It sounds very confusing at first, but it was actually a very OP divine ability if the user could use it correctly.
Moreover, this [Shockwave Impact] could be applied not only in battle but in many other things as well.
[Whirlwind Vacuum Wave] was also the same as [Shockwave Impact]. In fact, both of them were one set of abilities.
Both could be used to increase the user''s burst speed or firepower.
Even Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in awe after received the knowledge about [Shockwave Impact] and [Whirlwind Vacuum Wave] from Yaya.
"What an awesome set of abilities?! As we expected from Instructor Lan''s mom, even the skill and divine ability she taught to Yaya is on a different scale than the other teacher!" Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction.
Instructor Lan''s mom even gave Yaya many nutritious snacks, which made Yaya''s level increased faster than Tang Li Xue.
"All right! There is no more time! That silver masked man will really die at this rate!" Tang Li Xue started to get nervous when the ck-masked old man took out nine crystal orbs from his spatial ring.
She used herst strand of energy to create a white bow, and she used most of Yaya''s wind elemental energy to create a wind arrow.
This wind arrow was imbued with the [Shockwave Impact] divine ability to increase its lethality by many times.
Under the [Shockwave Impact]''s effect, the direction of this wind arrow would not change, and the speed would also not decrease even if it got hit by wind, air, explosion, or sound.
Tang Li Xue nocked the wind arrow onto her white bow and pulled the bowstring.
"Ah... This is my first time to hold a bow, and you tell me to shoot someone from more than fifty miles away?! This is crazy! In my previous world, 2.2 miles is already an almost impossible shot and the farthest sniper shot! The heck, it is with a sniper rifle while I am here shooting an arrow with a bow!" Tang Li Xueined again and again.
"Sigh... Forget it... Forgive me, young man... if I miss this shot or if I identally hit you with this shot, then you can only me on your bad luck!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she licked her pinkish lips.
Despite herint and grumbling, Tang Li Xue was actually always very eager and excited to try new things.
The reason was that she had been confined in the hospital room for too long in her previous life. So in this new life, Tang Li Xue was very eager to try new things and exploring new ces.
The moment when Tang Li Xue unleashed the wind arrow from her bow, she used her [Whirlwind Vacuum Wave] to propel the wind arrow.
The wind arrow shed away toward where the silver masked young man and the ck-masked old man was fighting.
Strangely, Tang Li Xue''s wind arrow did not get any slower the farther it flew!
On the contrary, it got faster and faster under the [Whirlwind Vacuum Wave]''s propelling effect!
It even added the spin effect to the wind arrow, and its spin got faster and faster too, the farther it flew!
In short, Tang Li Xue''s wind arrow got even more powerful and faster, the longer it flew!
After Tang Li Xue''s wind arrow covered more than fifty miles of distance and arrived at the ck-masked old man''s chest, the speed and power behind the wind arrow already reached an unfathomable level!
Even the Core Formation Stage Expert like the ck-masked old man did not have enough time to react or defend himself before Tang Li Xue''s wind arrow prated his chest.
Of course, this was all possible because the ck-masked old man was currently fighting in the fierce battle against the silver masked young man, and he did not have any free time to pay attention to his surroundings.
Normally, any strong cultivator would always remain alert to their surrounding, so they would certainly know if an arrow wasing towards them from more than fifty miles away.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she saw her wind arrow hit right on her target''s chest.
She did not have any time to feel happy or joy as the extreme exhaustion flooded her entire body.
Tang Li Xue was forced tond in the middle of the forest. She quickly dug a small cave behind the bush for her hiding ce.
Tang Li Xue nced at her [Divine Possession Mode] duration at her system''s log.
[Divine Possession Duration: 00:00:23]
''Great... So I am not onlypletely exhausted, but I also must face the bacsh from the [Divine Possession Mode]?! Sigh...'' Tang Li Xue thought in frustration.
This time Tang Li Xue was really run out of any options.
Phoenix of Pride waspletely exhausted too and fell into a deep sleep in Tang Li Xue''s Dantian.
Little Loki also fell into a deep sleep to digest the fragment of divine treasure it devoured before.
Her perfect copy had been killed by the nine-headed humongous dark crimson snake, and it would take 9 nights to recover.
Tang Li Xue herself and Yaya were alreadypletely exhausted too, and both of them would need to face the bacsh from the [Divine Possession Mode] soon.
Tang Li Xue could not help but felt really worried and insecure this time while she covered the cave entrance she made.
She did not even have any items to protect herself, such as [Substitution Doll], and so on.
As for those two disciples¡ let''s just forget about them. It would be good already if they did not make more trouble for Tang Li Xue.
"I can only hope everything would be alright¡" Tang Li Xue murmured softly as the duration of her [Divine Possession Mode] was up, and the bacsh started to assault her entire body.
The unconscious Yaya automatically entered the system''s pet storage. She was recovering her stamina bit by bit while facing the bacsh effect from the [Divine Possession Mode] there.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and muffled her painful groan. The extreme exhaustion made her wants to fall asleep, but the painful bacsh kept her conscious awake.
Tang Li Xue kept teetering on the brink between asleep and awake. It really felt much worse than facing only the painful bacsh.
Chapter 275: First Meeting!
Chapter 275: First Meeting!
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, reality did not always work ording to her wishes. That was the reason why anyone should always be prepared for the worst situation.
Just like what happened now¡
Tang Li Xue was very sure that no one could detect where she was hiding with thebination of her [Conceal] passive ability and the [Art of Concealment] she trained until she reached proficient level.
But not everyone detected their enemies or preys through their five senses or their enemies'' presence!
It did not take long for the sky to turn dark after Tang Li Xue dug her hidden cave to face the bacsh from [Divine Possession] with Yaya.
When the night hase, many nocturnal predators started toe out from their nest and hunt for their prey to fill their hungry stomachs.
------------------------------------------------------------
[Species: Purple Poisonous Tarant]
[Qualification: Normal]
[Grade: Rare]
[Level: 15]
[HP: 146,500/146,500]
------------------------------------------------------------
This powerful [Purple Poisonous Tarant] was one of the most powerful nocturnal predators in this unknown forest.
Moreover, the [Purple Poisonous Tarant] did not find its prey with its five senses, but by feeling the vibrations of potential prey through their feet and the hairs on their body. When the prey was detected, they moved fast and literally pounced on them.
Different from the other tarants, the venom from [Purple Poisonous Tarant] was especially ferocious. Its venom did not only paralyze its prey but also turned its prey into the liquid, so the [Purple Poisonous Tarant] can eat it.
Right now, this steed-sized [Purple Poisonous Tarant] managed to detect Tang Li Xue''s hidden cave and swiftly creeping toward it.
It carefully dug the closed entrance with its front legs and put its head into the hidden cave. Its eight terrifying eyes stared greedily at the suffering Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was still suffering from the [Divine Possession Mode]''s bacsh and still unconscious. Her stamina did not recover even a bit until now because the unbearable pain from the bacsh would sap all of her stamina immediately after she recovered a bit of it.
The [Purple Poisonous Tarant] grabbed Tang Li Xue''s body with sturdy front legs and brought her closer to its mouth.
Just when the [Purple Poisonous Tarant] opened its mouth to bite Tang Li Xue''s body and inject its lethal venom into her body¡
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGGG~~!!!
The [Purple Poisonous Tarant]''s huge body was thrown off several meters away, and Tang Li Xue''s slender body fell from its front legs'' grip.
A white shadow quickly shed and caught Tang Li Xue before she could fall and hit the ground.
The white shadow was actually Elder Yang from Immortal Sword Sect!
He used his flying sword and flew at his full speed to the direction where the wind arrow came from. He wanted to find the person who saved him and thanked that person properly. He even wanted to offer some gifts of gratitude to that person.
In Elder Yang''s mind, the one who saved him must be an elder with unmatchable martial art prowess.
That elder was traveling around the world with a bow on his back.
When that elder met with any injustice or viins like the ck-masked old man, he will use his bow and arrow to execute them on the spot.
s, he failed to find that elder even after traveling more than fifty miles away from Quanhai City and met with this damsel in distress instead.
Elder Yang actually did not even realize this damsel in distress before because he flew so high in the sky. But the Blood of Lust assimted in his body suddenly reacted when Elder Yang flew above her.
Elder Yang thought there was a treasure here, so he decided to check it for a moment only to find this ck-cloaked woman who almost got eaten alive by a huge spider.
HIIIIIIISSSSSSS~~!!!
The [Purple Poisonous Tarant] hissed in anger and pounced aggressively towards Elder Yang!
"SCRAM!!!" Elder Yang shouted in annoyance as he threw a kick toward [Purple Poisonous Tarant].
BAAAAANG~~!!!
[Purple Poisonous Tarant] flew backward again for a few meters, while Elder Yang took a few steps back.
Elder Yang frowned deeply and murmured: "This insect is quite troublesome to deal with... and I do not have much Qi left after facing that old man for so long."
The [Purple Poisonous Tarant] was the true predator and could be said to be the king of this unknown forest.
The [Purple Poisonous Tarant] was the [Rare] grade demonic beast after all, not a mere [Umon] demonic beast.
Obviously, even the Core Formation Stage Expert like Elder Yang could not defeat it that easily as if flipping his own hand. Moreover, the [Purple Poisonous Tarant] has a really tough carapace, and it did not even use its powerful divine ability yet.
Although Elder Yang felt he could defeat this [Purple Poisonous Tarant]?in one minute if he fought seriously, he obviously did not want to waste his remaining Qi and time to y this [Purple Poisonous Tarant].
So, Elder Yang decided to take out his flying sword from his spatial ring and jumped on top of it with Tang Li Xue in his arms.
Elder Yang quickly drove his flying sword and soared into the sky!
HIIIIIIISSSSSSS~~!!!
The [Purple Poisonous Tarant] hissed loudly again in anger, and it spurted out its poisonous sticky web towards the flying Elder Yang. It tried to catch Elder Yang and Tang Li Xue with its poisonous sticky web and dragged them down from the sky.
Elder Yang controlled the flying sword under his feet swiftly to avoid the sticky web while increased his flying speed more and more until it reached his maximum speed.
The [Purple Poisonous Tarant] kept hissing angrily, but it could not fly, so it could only curse Elder Yang in its mind for stealing its delicious and nutritious prey.
Elder Yang thought for a while and decided to not fly back to Quanhai City.
There will definitely be a very bigmotion after the people in Quanhai City regain their consciousness.
It was true that Elder Yang, Tang Li Xue, and Ye Zhen already stopped the blood barrier from sucking the blood and vitality of Quanhai City''s people as soon as they could to minimize the damage.
But some of the weaker people, such as elder people, sickly people, children, babies, and so on, would definitely pass away first.
It was just impossible to save everyone. They could only try to save most of them.
About a third of Quanhai City''s poption may have already died from that blood barrier''s effect.
Elder Yang already channeled some of his Qi to Ye Zhen before he chased after the ck-masked old man, so Ye Zhen already regained his consciousness earlier.
Elder Yang also ordered Ye Zhen to help the current weakened Quanhai City''s people and appeased themotionter after the people in Quanhai City regained their consciousness.
He also told Ye Zhen to exin the truth to the Quanhai City''s governor so they could handle the aftermath.
Elder Yang sighed and shook his head. He decided to stop thinking about it and helped the fox-masked girl in his arms to recover first.
After flying for a while, Elder Yangnded on the valley and brought the unconscious Tang Li Xue into the natural cave.
Elder Yang put the unconscious Tang Li Xue and touched her wrist to check on her condition.
He frowned deeper after he diagnosed Tang Li Xue''s condition since he failed to find the cause of her illness. The physiques of humans and beasts werepletely different after all.
Although Tang Li Xue looked identical to any human right now, it was still impossible to diagnose her body with the human''s body standards.
Elder Yang thought for a while again before he took out two pills from his spatial ring. It was Intermediate Antidote Pill and Intermediate Qi Restoring Pill.
He stuffed both pills into Tang Li Xue''s mouth while murmured to her: "I can only help you this far. You can only count on yourself to recover hereafter."
Elder Yang went out of the cave after that. He did not even touch Tang Li Xue''s fox mask, ck cloak, or hood which covered her face and head.
Everyone has their own secret, and Elder Yang knew about this the most, just like how he must wear this silver mask to cover his face.
¡..
¡
.
The bacsh from [Divine Possession Mode]sted for several hours before itpletely subsided.
After the painful bacsh subsided, Tang Li Xue finally could fall asleep in peace to recover her Qi, vitality energy, and stamina.
The next morning, Tang Li Xue was awoken by the fragrant smell of roasted meat.
It was such a familiar fragrance¡ The fragrant that she craved so badly from time to time.
She did not fully recover all of her energy yet, but at least, she could already move around unhindered right now thanks to Elder Yang''s Intermediate Qi Restoring Pill.
Tang Li Xue''s long silver eyshes fluttered slightly as she slowly opened her topaz blue eyes.
She got up and looked around the unfamiliar cave in confusion.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply. She quickly checked her body, space pouches, spatial rings, fox mask, her white clothes, her ck cloak, and ck hood.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she made sure nothing was missing or changing from her limbs and clothes to her belonging, but she did not dare to lower her vignce yet.
She decided to get up and walked out from the cave to look for the source of the mouth-watering fragrance.
After Tang Li Xue went out of the cave, she saw the young man with a silver mask on his face and wearing a set of white clothes was roasting meat meticulously beside the campfire.
His steady sitting figure was ovepping with the ck-robed man in Tang Li Xue''s eyes.
For some unknown reason, Tang Li Xue saw the man in the ck robe was grilling meat while chatting and teasing someone happily instead of the silver-masked man right now.
Unfortunately, the face of the ck-robed man was very blurry. Tang Li Xue could not see his expression clearly, but somehow, she knew that the ck-robed man was very happy.
Tang Li Xue felt really dizzy, and she shook her head.
The person in front of her eyes turned back into the silver masked young man again, and she haspletely forgotten about the ck-robed man again.
"You woke up already? How is your body? Do you still feeling¡" The silver masked young man turned around and asked Tang Li Xue, but he immediately stunned silly when she saw Tang Li Xue''s pair of familiar topaz blue eyes.
It was a pair of most beautiful and mesmerizing eyes, but that was not the reason why Elder Yang dumbfounded right now...
"Xiao¡ Bai?" The silver masked young man subconsciously muttered.
Chapter 276: Delicious Roasted Meat!
Chapter 276: Delicious Roasted Meat!
Tang Li Xue stared angrily at the dumbfounded Elder Yang.
''Little White (Xiao Bai)?! What do you mean Little? Are you blind or something? I am Big White, okay?! .....All right, I am not that big, but I am not that small either! My size should be average, and I am still in the growing phase!'' Tang Li Xue angrily thought as she puffed her chest to make it look bigger.
Tang Li Xue pouted in anger, but she still chose to sit beside the silver-masked young man in the end, while the silver-masked young man kept staring at Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes from the side.
"Young Master, can you stop staring at me like that? Look, your roasted meat is almost burnt." Tang Li Xue reminded, but her tone was tinged with displeasure.
"Eh? Roasted¡" Tang Li Xue''s reminder woke Elder Yang from his daze, and he quickly pulled his roasted meat away from the campfire.
However, some parts of the roasted meat were already charred and turned ck.
Elder Yang frowned in displeasure, and he nonchntly threw the charred roasted meat away.
Elder Yang did not particrly like to eat roasted meat that much, but it had be his daily habit to roasting the meat every morning and offered it to histe Xiao Bai who had died a few months ago.
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure immediately shed as she automatically used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to swiftly catch the roasted meat that had been charred before it could touch the ground.
Elder Yang widened his eyes in surprise at how fast Tang Li Xue could move.
Elder Yang guarded the cave entrance because he thought Tang Li Xue was a normal girl without any martial art prowess.
Usually, the stronger cultivator could sense the cultivation stage of the weaker cultivator.
But Tang Li Xue''s [Conceal] passive ability could hide her cultivation stage even from the people who have stronger cultivation than her like this Elder Yang.
"How could you throw your food away just like that?! Do you even know how many people die in starvation every day? You can just give it to me if you do not want it." Tang Li Xue mumbled incoherently with her mouth full after taking arge bite of the roasted meat in her grasp.
No one would understand it better than Tang Li Xue since she already felt it in her previous life. Whether, when she was too sick and could not eat anything... or when she had no money to buy any food and was forced to drink a lot of water to fill her empty stomach. In short, she already faced all of those in her previous life.
Ironically, her life as a fox now was actually far more blissful than her previous life when she lived as a human.
When Elder Yang saw Tang Li Xue greedily ate the charred roasted meat he made, his cold expression cracked as his lips curved a bit upward.
Tang Li Xue''s way of eating reminded him of the first time his Xiao Bai greedily ate his roasted meat in the cave on the periphery of the Moonlight Forest.
"That roasted meat is already burnt. Just throw it away before you get a stomach ache. I will make you a new one." Elder Yang said as he took out some raw meat from his spatial ring and seasoned the raw meat with several seasonings like spice, cumin, salt, and so on before roasting it again.
Tang Li Xue''s eyes lit up, and she replied: "All right! You can make some more¡ Actually, you can make a lot more if you want..."
However, Tang Li Xue did not throw away the charred roasted meat in her grasp. She ate it cleanly and only leaving the bones behind.
The roasted meat was only charred a bit, so it still tasted quite delicious and just tasted bitter than usual.
After fifteen minutes or so, Elder Yang''s fragrant roasted meat was ready to be served. Elder Yang gave one to Tang Li Xue, but she devoured it so quickly and even asked for more.
Elder Yang gave Tang Li Xue another one with a gentle smile on his face and asked her: "Is the roasted meat I cook taste that delicious?"
Tang Li Xue thought for a moment before nodded her head and replied with the mouth filled with grease: "It''s not bad! Are you a culinary master on the pilgrimage?"
Elder Yang chuckled when he heard Tang Li Xue''s funny question.
Tang Li Xue knew that Elder Yang''s true identity was an elder from Immortal Sword Sect, but she genuinely thought Elder Yang was also a culinary master. Just like she was an Apprentice level Inscriptionist, but she was also a beginner level Alchemist.
Elder Yang watched Tang Li Xue ate his roasted meat greedily one after another with a gentle smile on his cold face while reminiscing his time with histe Xiao Bai before.
Same pair of clear innocent topaz blue eyes, same favorite food, and same way of eating¡
Elder Yang sighed as he thought that if his Xiao Bai reincarnated as a human, she would probably look more or less like a maskeddy in front of him right now.
''But that is impossible¡ Xiao Bai only died a few months ago while this youngdy is probably already fifteen years old now.'' Elder Yang thought while shook his head in disappointment.
In the end, Elder Yang did not even eat any of the roasted meats. All of the fragrant roasted meats were devoured by Tang Li Xue alone.
After finished eating, Tang Li Xue asked Elder Yang about what happened before and why she was here.
Elder Yang told Tang Li Xue everything from how the [Purple Poisonous Tarant] almost ate her, then he happened to be passing there to search for someone who saved him before and saved her from it.
Tang Li Xue nodded absentmindedly and thought for a while: ''Hmm¡ So this silver-masked man came to find the person who helped him which was me! Then he identally saved me while at it? Wait a minute... That incident happened because I was so exhausted after saving you from that old man, right?! So it is not my fault, but yours! Tsk... Then I do not need to apologize or say thank you! You should be the one thanking me instead!''
"Thank you¡" Tang Li Xue still decided to thank Elder Yang out of courtesy, but she added ''for the roasted meat'' in her heart.
"It was nothing." Elder Yang replied with a leisure tone.
He hesitated for a while before asking Tang Li Xue again: "Where do you want to go now? I can take you there."
Usually, Elder Yang would never ask or did something so troublesome like this to anyone, but thedy in front of him reminded him a lot of histe Xiao Bai, so he decided to help her once more.
"Eh? Uhh¡ No, there is no need for you to do that. My destination ce is quite near here. I can reach there on foot." Tang Li Xue was caught off guard by Elder Yang''s offer, and she quickly rejected him.
Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips twitched and pondered: ''There is no way I can tell him that my destination ce is Myriad Foxes Academy, right? Thankfully, he does not seem to realize yet that I am not a human. He probably would not even save me before if he knew it.''
''Oh, well¡ This guy can really cook some delicious roasted meat, but he is a human race elder from Immortal Sword Sect. Just from his identity alone, we definitely cannot be friends in the future. It seems our fate ends here. We are destined to be enemies sooner orter.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head in disappointment.
''It''s just I do not want to face the Core Formation Stage Expert like him for now, and it would be bad if he suddenly realized that I am not a human¡ I still have not even fully recovered yet. Both Phoenix of Pride and Yaya also are still in a deep sleep to recover too. Sigh¡ It seems the best way is for us to part here.'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
"Thank you very much for the Young Master''s kindness. I appreciate the Young Master''s offer, but I do not want to owe Young Master even more." Tang Li Xue said with a polite tone to Elder Yang.
"You do not need to feel ufortable. I know you are not weak, but you just recovered from your illness. Many dangers are lurking everywhere, and I do not want the person I saved to get killed on the way." Elder Yang clearly stated his intention to Tang Li Xue.
''Urgh¡ why is this person so pushy? There is no way other than using my sure way!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she gritted her teeth.
"Young Master¡ Actually, I already have a husband. I am afraid he will get angry If he saw meing back home with you. I hope you can understand my predicament." Tang Li Xue said with a sad tone and even put a pitiful expression.
Elder Yang chuckled a bit when she saw Tang Li Xue acting pitifully in front of him.
For some reason, Elder Yang could detect that Tang Li Xue was started to lie to him.
After pondering the reason for a while, Elder Yang finally remembered that histe Xiao Bai would also act the same like this when she asked for the roasted meat after making some mistakes.
His Xiao Bai would also act pitifully in front of him like this with her teary pair of topaz blue eyes. Usually, he would tease his Xiao Bai again and again until she got really angry before heforted her with some delicious roasted meat to calm her anger.
Looking at Tang Li Xue, who acted pitifully like His Xiao Bai, the long-lost mischievousness in Elder Yang''s cold heart started rekindling again.
"Oh, really?" Elder Yang raised his eyebrow and asked.
"Of course, it''s true." Tang Li Xue immediately replied.
"Come to think of it, I never asked for your name before. Who is your name?" Elder Yang asked nonchntly.
"Chou Nu (Ugly Girl)." Tang Li Xue immediately replied once again.
"All right, Young Miss Chou¡ what is the name of your husband? Who knows if I know him too?!" Elder Yang smiled and asked again. It seems he wanted to know how far Tang Li Xue could lie.
"Chou Jiahuo (Ugly Guy)." Tang Li Xue replied with a tone filled with annoyance.
"Ooh, so your husband is Brother Jiahuo. I know him! We are the best childhood friends! I am sure he will be grateful if I escort you home safely!" Elder Yang pped his hand and said to Tang Li Xue with an excited tone.
"What?! You really know someone named Chou Jiahuo?!" Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise and asked back in disbelief.
Chapter 277: Returning to Myriad Foxes Academy!
Chapter 277: Returning to Myriad Foxes Academy!
Elder Yang chuckled softly at Tang Li Xue''s funny reaction.
While Tang Li Xue got even angrier after she realized that Elder Yang was only teased her. She red in anger at Elder Yang and said: "I do not know if you really know my husband or not, but it is not good for a married woman like me to hang around with any other man besides my husband. Farewell, Young Master!"
Tang Li Xue gave the fist and palm salute to Elder Yang before turned around and walked away from him.
Elder Yang pondered for a few moments before took out something from his spatial ring and threw it to Tang Li Xue while shouted: "Catch this!"
WHIIISSSH~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] immediately sensed something flying fast toward her, so she swiftly turned around and caught the item thrown by Elder Yang to her.
"This is..." Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise when she saw the item in her grasp.
It was actually a jade insignia with ''The Elder of Immortal Sword Sect'' written on its surface. There was also the ''Yang'' word written at the center of the jade insignia.
"My name is Yang Zhiyun, the Honorary Elder of Immortal Sword Sect. If you met with any trouble on your way home, just show that jade insignia, and say you are my good friend." Elder Yang introduced himself while exining about the jade insignia.
"It can probably solve all your troubles with any people in Lightwind Continent. But it still cannot save you if you meet with any ferocious demonic beast, so I still think it would be much safer to just let me escort you back..." Elder Yang continued.
Tang Li Xue''s eyes brightened when she saw the jade insignia, and she quickly stored it carefully in her space pouch.
Immortal Sword Sect was the sect recognized by everyone as the biggest and the strongest virtuous sect in Lightwind Continent right now. The sect was even kept expanding furiously until today without any sign of stopping.
There were probably hundreds or even thousands of elders in the Immortal Sword Sect. But the Honorary Elder was reserved only for the most important few people who valued greatly by the sect master himself.
The rumor said the reason for the Immortal Sword Sect could expand so quickly like now because it was backed by the strong powerhouse from the other continent.
But it was not Tang Li Xue''s business to worry about for now. In short, the Immortal Sword Sect was very powerful and influential right now. So, this jade insignia would definitely prove to be of great use to her sooner orter.
"Young Master Yang, thank you very much for your generous gift. There is no need for an honorable person like you to personally escort me back home. I will excuse myself now. Please take care of yourself." Tang Li Xue''s smile bloomed beautifully at Elder Yang, and she waved her hand to say goodbye to him.
After received the precious jade insignia as a gift from Elder Yang, Tang Li Xue''s attitude toward him changed 180 degrees. She became more polite and even smiled friendly at him before bid her farewell to him right now.
Elder Yang was dumbfounded for a few moments by Tang Li Xue''s sudden change of attitude. He chuckled softly as he kept staring at Tang Li Xue''s back, which went farther and farther away from him.
A sense of loss and loneliness flooded his heart as Tang Li Xue vanished from his vision.
Elder Yang also did not know the reason why. But he also felt this way when histe Xiao Bai died.
''Why do I feel this way? Maybe because that girl is so identical to Xiao Bai... but... she is not Xiao Bai in the end...'' Elder Yang sighed and decided to stop thinking about it.
He took out the flying sword from his spatial ring and jumped on top of it.
Elder Yang controlled the flying sword under his feet and speedily flew back to the direction of Immortal Sword Sect.
Elder Yang took one more nce at the direction where Tang Li Xue was heading for onest time before entering the sea of clouds.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue dashed away from Elder Yang and entered the nearby forest, but she still did not lower her vignce at all.
With her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue kept watching on Elder Yang''s every movement carefully until she went far enough and could not sense Elder Yang anymore.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and used her [Energy Maniption] to create a flying disc.
She rode on the top of her flying disc and flew towards the forest where the hidden space gate was located.
On the way, Tang Li Xue took out the two disciples from her medium-rank space pouch and put them on top of her flying disc too.
The two disciples have blood-like sticky substances all over their bodies, and they stuck so tightly to the stone block, which was the small part of the street in Quanhai City. Tang Li Xue had to cut it, so she could take the two disciples away with her from Quanhai City.
"Mhffff... Mppphhhff... Mpfhhh..." The male disciple red fiercely at Tang Li Xue. He seemed to have something to say to Tang Li Xue. He probably wanted to shout angrily to scold and curse at Tang Li Xue again.
The female disciple was the same. She red at Tang Li Xue and seemed to have something harsh to say to Tang Li Xue too.
Unfortunately for both of them, not only their bodies were sticking so tightly with the stone block, but their upper and lower lips were also sticking so tightly, and they could not open their mouth.
Tang Li Xue felt really d that she never touched this super sticky blood before, even after battling so fiercely against the nine-headed humongous dark crimson snake for such a long time.
Tang Li Xue ignored the sharp re from the two of them and exined: "You two do not need to worry anymore. I already bring you two out from Quanhai City, and we are on our way back to Myriad Foxes Academy right now."
The two disciples sighed in relief at the same time after they heard Tang Li Xue''s exnation.
"The problem right now is I do not know what exactly this sticky substance so I cannot free you two from it. But if the two of you still cannot move like this, then how could we open the space gate back to Myriad Foxes Academy?" Tang Li Xue said as she was lying through her teeth.
Of course, she could free them from that sticky blood-like substance if she wanted to. But it was just too troublesome, and who knows if these two troublemakers would make more trouble or even scold her rather than thank herter if she freed them.
What if they made arge ruckus or brainlessly shouting out loud in the forestter and identally called the [Obsidian Bear King] again just like before, Tang Li Xue could only fight fiercely against the [Obsidian Bear King] again while crying in anger and frustration.
''Nope! Just no! I will not let them free just yet! I just need to find those ticket things from their space pouch to open the space gate and throw them back to the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association in Myriad Foxes Academy!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and decided firmly in her heart.
"That''s why I need to find the ticket back to Myriad Foxes Academy in your space pouch. I hope you two can understand." Tang Li Xue said to the two disciples before she started to think about how she should get their space pouches without touching the sticky blood-like substance since she did not want to stick to them.
"Hummppphh¡ Mmmmuuhhhhpph¡" The two disciples started to struggle as if they wanted to refuse Tang Li Xue from taking their space pouches.
The stone block below them started to crack, but they still could not move, since their sticky body did not only stick at the stone block but also with their other body parts.
They even felt in extreme pain right now because when they forced themselves to move, their other body parts made loud cracking sounds as if something was broken.
Tang Li Xue did not mind their reaction. She created a few white daggers with her [Energy Maniption] and started to poke them using it.
Each time Tang Li Xue poked them using the white daggers, they would scream with their muffled voice.
Of course, Tang Li Xue only poked gently at them to find their space pouches. She did not really stab her daggers too deeply¡ She did not mean to hurt them or exact revenge for her grievance¡ Oh well, maybe just a little bit¡
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to find their space pouches, which were hidden in their long sleeves, but Tang Li Xue pretended to not realize it and stabbed them a few more times¡ I mean poked at them gently with her daggers to check if they hid more space pouches¡ really¡ it was not because of her grievance with them at all.
After carefully taking their space pouches without touching them, she began to rummage through them.
Different from the spatial ring of the human race, which could only be opened by the owner, the space pouch of the beast race could be opened by anyone, so Tang Li Xue could easily insert her hands into the space pouch and search for the ticket.
There seems to be a lot of good things inside their space pouches. Although Tang Li Xue did not know how to use any of them, but she could still sell them for a lot of credit in Myriad Foxes Academyter.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not take all of them. It would be bad if these two scions of important foxes from Pharmacy and Alchemist Association informed their parents or higher-ups about it.
She only took a golden ticket from their space pouches¡ Okay, maybe along with a few unnoticeable items¡ those two disciples were extremely rich anyway. They probably would not notice it if two or three things were missing from their space pouches, right?
After taking the golden ticket from their space pouches, Tang Li Xue returned their space pouches and threw the two of them back into her medium-rank space pouch.
When Tang Li Xue had approached the forest, she immediately activated her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure turned invisible.
All the demonic beasts in the forest included the [Obsidian Bear King] could no longer detect her presence or see her anymore.
She leisurely sprinted towards the ce, where she arrived in this forest for the first time.
It did not take her long to find that ce, since she already scanned the map of this entire ce from the two disciples into her consciousness before.
After reached that ce, Tang Li Xue silently canceled her [Ethereal Form] and took out the golden ticket from her space pouch.
The moment Tang Li Xue tore the golden ticket in her grasp in two, the space in front of her split into two!
Tang Li Xue quickly stepped into the space gate before it closed.
A few seconds after Tang Li Xue entered the space gate, the space gate was closed, and the space inside the forest rippled a bit. The scene inside the forest returned to normal like before, as if nothing happened here.
Chapter 278: High Fever!
Chapter 278: High Fever!
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes, she already stood on the giant stone ring in the enormous bright hall.
There were many foxes in their human form wearing a ck cloak in this enormous bright hall. Some of them were entering the space gates, while the others were exiting the space gates on the top of the giant stone rings.
Tang Li Xue quickly jumped down from the giant stone ring and exited from the enormous bright hall.
Tang Li Xue took off her ck cloak, revealing her fluffy silver foxtail and her pair of cute silver fox ears.
She took a deep breath when she saw the familiar majestic city in front of her eyes and murmured: "Finally, I am back!"
Tang Li Xue felt that she really wanted to cry in relief and joy so badly. She only went out from this Myriad Foxes Academy for a few days, but she felt as if she had already gone from here for a few years.
From babysat those two most problematic pampered disciples in the forest until she must infiltrate into Quanhai City to buy something they need...
Then she got chased like a criminal in Quanhai City until Little Loki''s hatched from its egg...
Moreover, she got chased by the greedy robbers from Immortal Sword Sect...
She even got stalked by a perverted sexydy in the red dress...
Somehow she made the stupidest decision to infiltrated back into Quanhai City to dispel the blood barrier and must face the monstrous nine-headed dark crimson snake...
In the end, she even almost got killed by that ugly tarant and was forced to ept the help from her future enemy, that Yang... something, the elder from Immortal Sword Sect...
Too many things happened after she left the Myriad Foxes Academy that Tang Li Xue still wondered about how lucky she was to still keep her little life until now even after facing those disasters one after another.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm her mood before she decided to head directly toward the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association.
Tang Li Xue did not stay for too long in the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association. She gave the two disciples who were sticking on the stone blocks to the front desk staff.
Tang Li Xue also took out the necessary herbs and ingredients to make the pills and gave them to the front desk staff too.
The front desk staff was stunned silly for a few moments when she was looking at the two disciples'' condition. While Tang Li Xue exined clearly what happened in Quanhai City and why these two disciples could sticking on those stone blocks like that.
After made sure the two disciples were actually unharmed, the front desk staff took out the necessary documents as proof that Tang Li Xuepleted the mission given by the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association and gave it to Tang Li Xue.
Of course, Tang Li Xue already healed all of their wounds with [Talisman of Regeneration +2] before bringing them here. That was the reason why they werepletely unharmed now.
Tang Li Xue brought the necessary documents to the mission hall and gave them to the front desk staff of the mission hall along with her mission''s bamboo tube.
"Congrattion! You are the seventh person toplete the D-Grade mission. From now on, you are a Silver Badge holder." The front desk staff gave a graceful bow and congratted Tang Li Xue with a gentle smile on her face.

-----------------------------------------------------
''Phew¡Atst, this quest ispleted! Unfortunately, I did not get a perfect evaluation¡ Oh well, the quest is really hard this time. I should be grateful since I managed toplete it with my life still intact.'' Tang Li Xue thought.
There were two parts where Tang Li Xue had failed to do. That was probably the main reason why she did not get the perfect evaluation in this quest.
[Quest: (Bodyguard) protect the conceited disciples of the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association from any harm and help them finish their assignments!]
First, Tang Li Xue harmed the two disciples herself multiple times, and she even stabbed them a few times in the end.
Although she healed both of them using her [Talisman of Regeneration +2] and brought them inpletely unharmed condition back to Pharmacy and Alchemist Association, the system probably already reduced Tang Li Xue''s score from that.
Second, she failed to get absolute obedience from those two disciples. In fact, Tang Li Xue even half-forced the two of them to help her baiting so many crimson-robed guards before.
Just from these two points was more than enough to make the system cut Tang Li Xue''s score by half. So she definitely could not get the perfect evaluation this time.
Tang Li Xue did not mind it very much, since she already knew that this quest was too hard for her to handle.
"Thank you very much!" Tang Li Xue happily replied while nodded back to the front desk staff.
Tang Li Xue needed to give her bronze badge and bronze card to the front desk staff first. The front desk staff took only half an hour to upgrade Tang Li Xue''s bronze badge and bronze card to Silver Rank.
The front desk staff inputted the mission Tang Li Xue haspleted into the mission hall''s record, but she widened her eyes in shock and read the documents, again and again, to make sure she did not read it wrong.
When the front desk staff gave the silver badge and silver card back to Tang Li Xue, she stared weirdly at Tang Li Xue. It was a mixed gaze between awe, disbelief, and pity.
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] was extremely sharp, so how could she do not detected the front desk staff''s strange gaze.
"Uh... why are you looking at me like that?" Tang Li Xue asked curiously.
"Please pardon me for my impoliteness, but... can I ask you something?" The front desk staff asked while kept fidgeting.
Tang Li Xue felt a bit hesitant, but she still nodded.
"Are you... reallypleted that mission?" The front desk staff spoke softly to Tang Li Xue.
"What mission? Isn''t the details of the mission Ipleted already written in the documents?" Tang Li Xue asked doubtfully.
"So... you reallypleted the escort mission of the two disciples of the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association?!" The front desk staff screamed in surprise and disbelief. She realized that she made a mistake and quickly covered her mouth, but it was already toote...
"What?! Someone alreadypleted that ursed mission?! Impossible!"
"EHHHH~!!! That legendary mission? The mission to escort those annoying pampered kids from Pharmacy and Alchemist Association?! Someonepleted it?! How is that possible?!"
"Where¡ Where is the hero whopleted the mission with the two demons from Pharmacy and Alchemist Association?! I want to see it!"
A group of foxes in their human form started to dash out from the several different rooms to check on the one whopleted that mission.
Tang Li Xue did not want to be a center of attention, so she quickly stored her silver badge and silver card in her space pouch, then sprinted out from the mission hall.
"Wa¡ Wait a minute¡ Young Miss¡" The front desk staff tried to call Tang Li Xue back, but Tang Li Xue already went out of the mission hall and ran back to the Residential Building.
''What''s wrong with these people¡ err¡ I mean foxes?! Is it really necessary for them to act that way? I onlypleted the simplest D-Grade mission, right?!'' Tang Li Xue grumbled.
When she arrived back at the Residential Building, the first thing Tang Li Xue did was to enter the luxurious restaurant on the first floor and ate many delicious delicacies until her stomach was about to burst.
All of the foods she ate today were really delicious, but she still somewhat feels that the roasted meat made by Elder Yang was more up to her taste and made her crave for more and more from time to time.
''I wonder why? Maybe that Elder Yang put something addictive in his roasted meat?'' Tang Li Xue pondered while she walked back to her room.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue still did not remember that Elder Yang''s roasted meat was actually the first delicious food she ever tasted before. Maybe that was the reason why she found it so addictive.
When Tang Li Xue entered back into her bedroom, she immediately slumped on her soft andfortable bed. She did not care even if it was still midday and slept so tightly until the next morning.
¡..
¡
.
The next morning, Tang Li Xue woke up veryte.
The first thing she did was to check Yaya''s current condition.
Yaya was alreadypletely recovered from the [Divine Possession Mode]''s bacsh, and even her stamina was also recoveredpletely.
When Tang Li Xue summoned out Yaya from her system''s pet storage, Yaya immediately pounced onto Tang Li Xue and kissed her cheek so many times.
Tang Li Xue yed around and teased Yaya for a while. Both of themughed and giggled happily while rolling over on the top of the soft bed.
After that, Tang Li Xue also checked the conditions of Phoenix of Pride and Little Loki.
The deep-blue Phoenix of Pride was alreadypletely recovered too, but it was stillzily sleeping near the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in Tang Li Xue''s Dantian.
The [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] kept strengthening and elerating the Phoenix of Pride growth and cultivation bit by bit.
The Phoenix of Pride also kept absorbing the [Pure Yang Sun me] stored inside the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl], although the amount was very minuscule every day.
With the help of [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl], the Phoenix of Pride could probably catch up to Blood of Lust''s growth after one or two years.
As for Little Loki''s current condition, Tang Li Xue was not really sure too, but it seems quite bad.
Its small ck furry body was actually burning hot!
"Is Little Loki having a high fever right now? But how could a high-grade beast like Little Loki get a high fever?! This does not make sense at all!" Tang Li Xue murmured while frowned deeply.
Tang Li Xue''s heart was very anxious and worried about Little Loki''s current condition. But her mind was still cool and rational thanks to her [Indomitable Will].
Tang Li Xue pondered carefully about her next step and what she needed to do to cure Little Loki''s illness for a few moments. She decided to check on her [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] first to find some clues about Little Loki''s species.
Chapter 279: Four Evil Fiend Beasts!
Chapter 279: Four Evil Fiend Beasts!
Tang Li Xue took out the [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] from her system inventory.
Although, this [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] only looked like an ancient-looking thick book, but there were truly many kinds of different information recorded inside this [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide].
The information contained inside this thick book of [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] probably more than the entire international-ss library.
Tang Li Xue also did not understand how her system recorded all of that information in a single book like this [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide].
"My system should just make this [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide]''s form into a tablet instead of an ancient book like this... It will look more high-tech that way!" Tang Li Xueined a bit.
Tang Li Xue would probably need to read this [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide]''s content diligently every day for at least several years to finish reading it.
Tang Li Xue opened the [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] and found a bit of information about Little Loki''s species, Tao Tie, in the Myth and Legend section.
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise and shock when she read about Tao Tie''s information.
Tao Tie, The Leader of Four Evil Fiend Beasts, The Four Perils!
Every world or realm always consisted of Yin and Yang, Evil and Goods, Destruction and Rebirth...
Both sides were equally important to maintain the world bnce, so that world or realm would not crumble apart.
In the Yang''s side or the good side, there were Four Mythical Guardian Beasts: Azure Dragon, Crimson Phoenix, ck Tortoise, and White Tiger.
While in the Yin''s side or in the evil side, there were Four Evil Fiend Beasts.
Hun Dun, the Evil Fiend Beast symbolized the Chaotic Torrent, capable of controlling its target''s emotions, yet it cannot distinguish right from wrong, and always do anything it likes, creating chaos everywhere.
Qiong Qi, the Evil Fiend Beast symbolized the Destitute Strangeness. A monstrous creature that can speak allnguages, good at confusing any creatures'' mind, its hobby was triggering wars and likes to make anyone in conflict toward each other.
Tao Wu, the Evil Fiend Beast symbolized the Ignorant Stump. An arrogant and stubborn beast with peerless might, it thrashes wildly through any realm and fights any living being it encounters to the death. Reviled for its ignorance and cruelty, it was given its unttering name as a stupid beast.
Tao Tie, the Evil Fiend Beast symbolized the Ravenous Gluttony, the leader of four Evil Fiend Beasts, a greedy monster that always hungry. It devours everything it sees, and it will grow even more powerful every time it eats.
At first, these Four Evil Fiend Beasts'' prowess was on par with Four Mythical Guardian Beasts.
But after many powerful mythical beasts such as Qilin, Nine-Tailed Fox, Pixiu, Fenghuang, Four Dragon Kings, and so on joined Yang side or good side, the bncew of Divine World gave the Four Evil Fiend Beasts even more power to bnce it.
The current Four Evil Fiend Beasts were so powerful that even all of the Four Mythical Guardian Beasts could only fight on par with one of them.
Especially their leader, Tao Tie, the peak matured Tao Tie could practically devour an entire high-ranking realm like Immortal World in one single gulp!
Tao Tie was an almost invincible being even in the entire Divine World. Its existence was akin to natural disasters like the flood or earthquake in the mortal world.
Currently, no God in Divine World was stupid enough to fight one on one with matured Tao Tie no matter how strong they were.
There must be hundreds of Gods to sufficiently drive Tao Tie away from their world or realm, and more than half of them were fated to perish every time in one sh.
Tao Tie did not have any weakness and almost impossible to be killed.
But it did not mean Tao Tie itself was invincible, eternal, or undying.
In fact, there was only one way to kill Tao Tie.
Tao Tie could eat anything without exception, and Tao Tie''s power would certainly grow stronger every time it ate something.
However, what if Tao Tie ate too many things until it could no longer control its own massive growth of power?
In short, the only way to kill Tao Tie was to make it overeating until its own devouring power went out of control and devoured its own body and soul!
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock and even forgot to close it for a while.
''This... This is really crazy! Little Loki is so awesome! Too OP! Wait a minute... Doesn''t it mean I will have a nearly invincible battle pet in the future?'' Tang Li Xue thought as she gulped her saliva loudly.
Tang Li Xue grabbed Little Loki on herp and lifting it high while spinning around whileughing happily for a few moments.
After she calmed down her excited and cheerful mood, Tang Li Xue wanted to close the [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] and stored it back into her system''s item inventory, but she realized that there was still some unnoticeable words written below the page about Four Evil Fiend Beasts.
(PS.1: If you get any eggs of Four Evil Fiend Beasts, you can store them first until you use them as the main pill ingredient for Fiend Body Essence Pill. But if you somehow get Tao Tie''s egg, please destroy it immediately on the spot before it could devour anything and turn into a huge disaster to any realm.)
(PS.2: MAKE SURE TO NEVER HATCH THE EGG OF EVIL FIEND BEASTS AND MAKE THEM YOUR COMPANION PET!!! All the Evil Fiend Beasts are treacherous and extremely wicked. They would surely bring misfortune, harm, and death to their master!)
(PS.3: Even if they somewhat do not cause the death of their master, their master would still be hunted down by all the Gods and their followers sooner orter until they met with the horrible end. SO, BE SURE TO NEVER EVER HATCH THE EGG OF EVIL FIEND BEASTS, ESPECIALLY TAO TIE, UNLESS YOU ARE TIRED OF LIVING!!!)
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Cold sweat started to damp her forehead and the back of her clothes.
Her brain felt short-circuited and could not process thest notes quite well, so she read thest notes carefully again and again before taking a really deep breath.
"Uuuuhhhyaaaaa~~!!! Why¡ Why¡ Why¡ do you only tell me now?!" Tang Li Xue screamed hysterically in panic and anxiousness.
"Wait¡ wait a minute¡ I do not even know whose egg it is?! I got that egg from the system! So how the hell I know which creature inside that egg?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in resentment and med it all on her unreliable system.
"S, s, s, s, should I throw it away now?! It is not toote for me to throw it away right now, right?" Tang Li Xue stuttered in fear and almost threw down Little Loki in her embrace.
But when she nced at Little Loki''s cute sleeping expression just like an innocent tiny kitten with overwhelming cuteness, her heart melted, and she hugged Little Loki gently in her warm embrace again.
"Sigh¡ No, no, no, no¡. Definitely no way! I already vow to never betray or abandon Little Loki before it hatched! How could I change my mind now just because these notes say so?!" Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and strengthened her wavering resolve.
Tang Li Xue did not realize it, but Little Loki in her embrace could still hear everything she said very clearly, even in its unhealthy condition. Its tiny little mouth involuntarily curved slightly upward in relief and d.
Tang Li Xue stored back the [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] into her system''s item inventory.
All this time, Tang Li Xue always felt that her system was very reliable, but now, she felt really unhappy because her system actually gave her something so dangerous like Tao Tie''s egg!
Honestly, Little Loki in her embrace was like a ticking time bomb ced on her body, but she really did not have any heart to abandon or throw it away.
No¡ she would never ever throw Little Loki away like her father dumped her sickly self and her big brother away.
But at least, Tang Li Xue got many clues from the information about the Four Evil Fiend Beasts from her [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide].
Thanks to that critical information, she could take some precautions to prevent Little Loki''s identity from leaking to anyone.
"I have 2 most important things to do now! First, I must find some ways to disguise Little Loki''s appearance and aura before anyone noticed it. Second, I need to find a way to cure his high fever." Tang Li Xue concluded while her slender soft hand kept gently stroking Little Loki''s smooth ck fur.
Tang Li Xue also got some clues about Little Loki''s illness from the information in the [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide].
Little Loki probably could not control its power right now since its power must be growing too quickly after it greedily devoured the fragment of divine treasure from the blood pool before.
Little Loki''s tiny little body was currently overheating when it was automatically trying to suppress the overflowing power it got from the fragment of divine treasure.
If Little Loki forcefully devoured more fragments of divine treasure now, its devouring power would surely go out of control and devoured itself just like what already exined in the [Immortal World''s Newbie Guide] about how Tao Tie died.
"In short, the true cause of Little Loki''s illness is because its body as the vessel is not developed or strong enough to contain its own power. I must find a way to strengthen its tiny body as soon as possible before its power grew too strong and devoured Little Loki itself!" Tang Li Xue said as her topaz blue eyes shone with determination.
Chapter 280: Got Caught!
Chapter 280: Got Caught!
Tang Li Xue with her limited knowledge did not know how to strengthen Little Loki''s tiny body, so she decided to ask someone more knowledgeable.
Amongst all the people Tang Li Xue knew, Instructor Mei Lan was surely the most knowledgeable.
Tang Li Xue stored the feverish Little Loki back into her system pet storage, so Little Loki could sleep undisturbed there.
Tang Li Xue took a bath with Yaya before leaving their room together.
She tried to knocking Bing Yi''s room and Hei Yinghao''s room to check if they already came back from their mission.
But it seems both of them were still carrying out their mission outside the Myriad Foxes Academy and still had note back yet.
Since they still have some time before the ss time was over, Tang Li Xue decided to bring Yaya to the luxurious restaurant on the first floor of the Residential Building.
Although Tang Li Xue did not have many credits left in her silver card, but she still had more than enough to treat Yaya to eat some expensive luxurious meals to celebrate their missionpletion today.
''I spend most of my credits to buy the three best quality of High-Level [Rare] grade beast cores before. I really should make more talismans if I have some free time and sell it to replenish my credits.'' Tang Li Xue silently thought while gobbling the delicious foods in front of her.
After eating to their heart''s content and both of them felt really full, Tang Li Xue brought Yaya out from the Residential Building and heading to the Education Building.
Tang Li Xue decided to not enter the Education Building and heading directly to Instructor Mei Lan''s courtyard behind the Education Building.
She did not want to meet with Teacher Li Wei yet for today because if she met with him now, he would certainly drag her away to attend his private lesson about the inscription in the ssroom.
Tang Li Xue knocked on Instructor Mei Lan''s front gate a few times, but she got no response. She did not give up and knocked it several more times, but still got no response.
It seems Instructor Mei Lan was still teaching the students in her ss, so Tang Li Xue decided to wait for Instructor Mei Lan for a while in front of the gate.
However, Instructor Mei Lan still did note back to her courtyard even after Tang Li Xue waited for more than one hour.
Tang Li Xue instead ran into Teacher Li Wei, who wanted to return to his courtyard.
Tang Li Xue immediately activated her [Ethereal Form] to escape from Teacher Li Wei, but unfortunately, it was already toote since Teacher Li Wei had already seen her from afar.
Teacher Li Wei waved one of his hands toward the vanishing Tang Li Xue, and a faint dim azure light shot out in an instant.
The faint dim azure light formed into the ''Restrain'' rune and shed toward the invisible Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge it, and she nned to get away from there as fast as she could. Who knew that Teacher Li Wei ''Restrain'' rune did not aim at her but on the ground below her feet.
WWEEEEEEEENGG~!!!
The ground below Tang Li Xue''s feet lighted up with dim azure light, and a huge ''Restrain'' rune was formed in the radius of 3 meters, restraining everything in that radius from moving.
Even Tang Li Xue, in her [Ethereal Form], was not spared from the effect of the ''Restrain'' rune. She gritted her teeth and tried to forcefully move her feet. Unfortunately, that was only a futile effort since she still could not move any of her body parts.
Teacher Li Wei leisurely walked toward Tang Li Xue''s direction while waving his hand again. This time he shot the ''Reveal'' rune toward Tang Li Xue.
The dazzling golden light shone like sunlight in Tang Li Xue''s direction, but Tang Li Xue remained in her invisible state, and her [Ethereal Form] still had not been canceled.
"Eh, what skill is that? Not bad, it can even resist my ''Reveal'' rune. Let''s see if you can resist this!" Teacher Li Wei chuckled and waved his hand for the third time.
This time he decided to use the ''Freezing'' rune on the invisible Tang Li Xue!
The temperature around Tang Li Xue immediately dropped in an instant, even the ground below her feet already covered by white frost.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue''s slender figure to be covered by white frost too, and she turned into an ice statue, even her [Ethereal Form] was canceled at the same time.
When the freezing coldness started to invade her inside, Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride subconsciously countered with its extremely high temperature to warm Tang Li Xue''s body.
The white frost wrapped Tang Li Xue''s body has started to melt, and she broke free from it without any trouble.
But Teacher Li Wei already stood right in front of Tang Li Xue after she freed herself from the ice.
"Little Lass, you really did already ask my permission to take the silver badge trial before, but you should notify it immediately after youpleted your mission ande back here! But here you are, wandering around like a naughty fox without attending any sses!" Teacher Li Wei scolded Tang Li Xue like a little kid that skipping school.
"Teacher Wei, I¡ Uhh¡ that is my n too! I nned to notify Instructor Lan first about my return before notifying you and Teacher Bai." Tang Li Xue replied while lowered her head in guilty.
Teacher Li Wei raised his eyebrow and asked with a stern tone: "Then why do you run away from me just now?"
Tang Li Xue: "¡.."
Actually, Tang Li Xue nned to strengthen Little Loki''s body as soon as possible after she asked Instructor Mei Lan about how to do it.
She would only attend the sses after she resolved Little Loki''s critical illness.
Teacher Li Wei''s face twitched under his fox mask in anger when he stared at the unrepentant Tang Li Xue.
Teacher Li Wei pinched Tang Li Xue''s squishy white cheek and pulled her toward him: "Come with me! We will begin our inscription lesson now at my ce! You do not have any other work to do now anyway, right?!"
"Aiyaaaa~~!!! It''s hurt! Teacher Wei, it really is hurt! Can¡ Can we talk? But please release my cheek first! I am sorry, but I really cannot attend the ss for now! I really have something important to do!" Tang Li Xue yelled and begged at Teacher Li Wei.
Teacher Li Wei released Tang Li Xue''s cheek and stared at her intently: "This is the second time! Do not try to run away from me again for the third time or I will really make you regret it, understand?!"
Tang Li Xue nodded obediently at Teacher Li Wei.
Teacher Li Wei''s heart softened a bit, and he asked again: "Speak! What ''something important'' you need to do today?"
"Mypanion is in critical condition right now. I must find a way to strengthen its sickly body as soon as possible or the consequence would be unimaginable! Teacher Wei, do you have some way to do that?" Tang Li Xue asked Teacher Li Wei with a solemn expression.
Teacher Li Wei thought deeply for a few moments before asked Tang Li Xue again: "I have several ways, but can you let me check at the condition of your friend first? There is some chance that your friend''s condition would be worsened if we just give something random to your friend without carefully identifying the root cause."
"This¡ Mypanion told me to not let anyone see it in that condition before. But¡ Teacher Wei, you do not need to worry about it! I can guarantee that mypanion only needs to strengthen its body to recover from its illness!" Tang Li Xue replied with a tone filled with confidence after she pondered it for a while.
Of course, she would never let anyone see her Little Loki before she could find a way to disguise its form.
The only one who ever saw Little Loki until now was the core disciple of Immortal Sword Sect, Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen was a martial art maniac, so he only ever read books about martial arts before. He was only 16-17 years old too, so his knowledge was not that deep yet.
But Teacher Li Wei was different!
Not only he was already several hundred years old, but he was also the prodigy in Inscription art. He must have already read countless books from different fields of knowledge until now.
His knowledge was surely unfathomably deep.
Tang Li Xue really did not dare to let Teacher Li Wei see her Little Loki!
Teacher Li Wei stared suspiciously at Tang Li Xue, but he determined that Tang Li Xue was not lying to him at all because her expression was filled with anxiousness and worry right now.
"All right, follow me! I will tell you the way to strengthen your friend''s body at my ce." Teacher Li Wei led Tang Li Xue to his courtyard.
"Thank you very much, Teacher Wei!" Tang Li Xue felt relieved and happily thanked him.
"Little Lass, do not feel too happy just yet! There is nothing free in this world! If you want to get something, you must trade it with something of equal value in return. Do you understand what it means?" Teacher Li Wei chuckled mischievously at Tang Li Xue.
Chapter 281: Three Black Jade Boxes!
Chapter 281: Three ck Jade Boxes!
"Something of equal value in return?" Tang Li Xue asked back to Teacher Li Wei while quizzically tilted her head.
Teacher Li Wei found Tang Li Xue''s little movement quite cute, and he really wanted to pinch her cheek again, but he decided not to do it after he saw Tang Li Xue''s reddened cheek because of his forceful pinch before.
"I will tell you about itter. Let''s walk to my ce first!" Teacher Li Wei replied as he brought Tang Li Xue and Yaya to his ce.
After he opened the front gate and let Tang Li Xue enter, Teacher Li Wei told Tang Li Xue to sit on the stone chair in his courtyard first, while Teacher Li Wei entered his house for a few moments to take something.
Tang Li Xue patiently waited for Teacher Li Wei while ying around with Yaya in the courtyard.
After ten minutes or so, Teacher Li Wei went out of his house with a tray in his hands. There were a teapot, several empty cups, and several tes of snacks on his tray.
"I am sorry, but my house is really messy now, so I cannot let you enter." Teacher Li Wei said to Tang Li Xue while he poured the hot tea from the teapot onto Tang Li Xue''s empty cup and Yaya''s empty cup.
"That is not a problem. I really do not mind it. So, Teacher Wei, what about..." Tang Li Xue impatiently wanted to ask about how to strengthen Little Loki''s body, but she was immediately distracted by the fragrance tea in front of her.
Even the tiny Yaya already started to sip the tea in front of her bit by bit with her tiny mouth.
Yaya already told Tang Li Xue about the extremely delicious spirit tea she drank at Instructor Mei Lan''s ce and her mother''s ce before.
Tang Li Xue felt really curious about it and wanted to try it so badly, but Instructor Mei Lan never gave her even a cup of it when Tang Li Xue did the special training in Instructor Mei Lan''s ce with Bing Yi.
"Is... Is this the famous spirit tea?" Tang Li Xue asked as she took the cup and sipped the tea slowly to taste it.
She immediately the warm sensation was spreading through her entire body, made her moaning slightly infortable.
Tang Li Xue sensed that all the fatigue lingering on her body washed away in an instant. Even her heart and mind felt strangely serene now.
"This tea... is amazing!" Tang Li Xue murmured in surprise and disbelief as she poured the tea from the teapot onto her empty cup again and sipped it slowly.
Teacher Li Wei chuckled at Tang Li Xue''s reaction and slowly exined: "Close, but not quite right. This tea is called Rejuvenation Tea. If Spirit Tea can help us restore our vitality energy and help our cultivation. Then this Rejuvenation Tea can help us heal our hidden wounds and calm our tension."
"Spirit Tea is the best to drink after we train hard, but this Rejuvenation Tea is the best to drink afterpleting the arduous mission." Teacher Li Wei patiently told to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue gratefully nodded to Teacher Li Wei and thanked him. She knew Teacher Li Wei especially give this tea to help her heal her hidden wounds.
There were many delicious mouth-watering snacks on the table. Just one looks and anyone would know that these snacks were not the usual simple dishes.
It seems Teacher Li Wei''s true identity was far greater than what Tang Li Xue has expected before.
In the Auction House before, Tang Li Xue realized that even Instructor Mei Lan''s father must be polite when he talked to Teacher Li Wei, and Instructor Mei Lan''s father also always wanted to match Instructor Mei Lan with Teacher Li Wei so badly.
''Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk... Handsome, rich, have an incredible status, and young... not really young, but at least he looks young, right?! Teacher Li Wei really has all the qualifications like the main male character in the novel! As his beloved student, I surely must hug his thigh tighter to get more benefit!'' Tang Li Xue silently thought in her mind.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s stomach was alreadypletely full right now, so she could not eat anymore.
But it did not apply to Yaya.
Although, Yaya''s stomach was also really full previously, but Yaya, as an elemental spirit, could digest the food and turned it into energy far faster than any other race.
Right now, Yaya already started to greedily eat the delicious snacks on the table with amazing speed like the locust swarm.
Tang Li Xue could only watch as Yaya consumed those delicious looking snacks with a blissful expression.
"All right, let''s talk about our matter now! There are many ways to strengthen the body immediately, but most of them would bring some harmful effects in the future. I am sure you will not want this to happen, right?"?Teacher Li Wei asked to probe Tang Li Xue''s problem.
"Of course not! I want something with immediate results but without any harmful effects. Teacher Wei, please! Can you find a way?" Tang Li Xue asked coquettishly.
Teacher Li Wei chuckled at how Tang Li Xue behaved. He really wanted tough at her now, but he muffled hisughter and replied: "I have several ways without any harmful effects. I will exin it slowly one by one now, so listen carefully! You can choose one of themter depending on your friend''s need and situation."
Teacher Li Wei took out three ck jade boxes from his space pouch andid them on the table in front of Tang Li Xue.
Teacher Li Wei opened the first ck jade box on the left.
There was an apple-like fruit with azure color inside the ck jade box. The fruit kept emitting an irresistible freezing aura.
Even the nearby Tang Li Xue and Yaya started to shiver because of its cold aura.
"This precious fruit is called Spring Ice Fruit from Eversnow Continent. This fruit can strengthen the body immediately after your friend ate it. There is no harmful effect, but your friend must withstand its extremely cold aura when the fruit is strengthening your friend''s body." Teacher Li Wei introduced the fruit''s effect and its side effect.
Tang Li Xue pondered carefully for a few moments while staring intently at the Spring Ice Fruit in the ck jade box.
Teacher Li Wei let Tang Li Xue think for a few seconds before he opened the ck jade box in the middle of the table.
This time, there was a purple-colored crystal in the size of Tang Li Xue''s fist. The purple-colored crystal was shining dim with purple light and exuded the eerie aura that made Tang Li Xue and Yaya really ufortable.
"This purple crystal is called Yin Vein Crystal from ck Yin Continent. The energy contained inside this crystal can strengthen the body too. There is no harmful effect, and your friend does not need to withstand any pain or cold aura." Teacher Li Wei exined all the pros first.
"Unfortunately, the energy mixed with Yin Poison, so your friend must refine the energy inside it carefully before absorb it. If your friend identally absorbs the Yin Poison, your friend''s life would be in a far more dangerous situation." Teacher Li Wei continued to tell the cons.
Tang Li Xue immediately shook her head and rejected this Yin Vein Crystal.
Little Loki was still unconscious, so how could it refine the energy inside this Yin Vein Crystal carefully and separate it with the Yin Poison?
Moreover, Tang Li Xue really did not really sure if little Loki immune to this Yin Poison or not.
She would never put her bet on Little Loki''s life if the chance was not 100%.
Teacher Li Wei nodded at Tang Li Xue and opened the third ck jade box on the stone table.
There was a stack of ck talismans that sat inside the third jade box. The number was not that much, maybe only ten ck talismans.
There were mysterious shiny golden-colored runes inscribed on all of the ck talismans. Even Tang Li Xue could not recognize the purpose or the type of these golden-colored runes.
"These ck talismans are called Metal Body Refinement Talisman. Among these three, these ck talismans give the most optimal result in strengthening the body. It can even make the body impervious to any normal weapons. The Fox Race in Ancient City fought a bloody battle with the human race to get these ancient talismans." Teacher Li Wei told Tang Li Xue about the history behind these ck talismans.
Tang Li Xue stared at the ten ck talismans in awe and admiration.
Teacher Li Wei chuckled and added: "Actually, I only borrow these Metal Body Refinement Talismans from my close friends to learn about the runes inscribed on them. You are lucky that I already learned the runes yesterday or I will never give these talismans to you."
Tang Li Xue stared at the Metal Body Refinement Talismans and at the Spring Ice Fruit. She still hesitated in choosing between these two.
"These ten ck talismans are one set, so it cannot be used one by one separately. You must use it all at once on one target. The user also needs someone else to activate it. So you cannot use it alone." Teacher Li Wei patiently exined how to use ck talismans, but he immediately noticed Tang Li Xue''s confused looks, so he gave an easy to understand example to her.
"If your friend is the strengthening target of these ck talismans, then you need to control these talismans carefully until all the runes inscribed in all of these talismans arepletely absorbed by your friend''s body." Teacher Li Wei fell silent after he exined everything. He wanted to give Tang Li Xue some time to decided her choice carefully.
Chapter 282: Teacher Li Weis Demand!
Chapter 282: Teacher Li Wei''s Demand!
''Little Loki can even eat the blood barrier at Quanhai City without any problem, so eating this Spring Ice Fruit should be no problem too, but I still have some doubts if the effect of this Spring Ice Fruit will work on Little Loki.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head and eliminated Spring Ice Fruit in her mind.
''It seems these ancient ck talismans, Metal Body Refinement Talisman, are the most reliable, and even the effect were also the greatest amongst all. Moreover, these ancient ck talismans applied directly to Little Loki''s body and strengthened its body directly from outside.'' Tang Li Xue has decided her choice
''I also do not need to worry if Little Lokipletely digested it and nullified the strengthening effect by turning it into its energy since Little Loki would not eat it like Spring Ice Fruit.'' Tang Li Xue thought, and she stretched her hands to take the ancient ck talismans, but Teacher Li Wei moved faster and immediately stored back all the three ck jade boxes into his space pouch.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned dark in an instant, and she asked Teacher Li Wei with a frustrated tone while pouting: "Teacher Wei, are you only teasing me? You already promised to help me¡"
Teacher Li Weiughed at Tang Li Xue while replying: "Since when I promise to help you? I only said that I will tell you the way to strengthen your friend''s body."
"But did you forget that I also said ''there is nothing free in this world''? If you want to get something, you must trade it with something of equal value in return." Teacher Li Wei said to Tang Li Xue with a teasing tone.
"There is nothing free in this world? Something of equal value in return? But¡ Teacher Wei¡ But I do not have something valuable enough to trade with that Metal Body Refinement Talisman?!" Tang Li Xue answered Teacher Li Wei with a tone and expression filled with desperation.
Teacher Li Wei chuckled and leisurely replied: "Simple.
You can just pay it using your body."
Tang Li Xue swiftly hugged her own body while staring vigntly at Teacher Li Wei as if she was staring at a pervert.
Teacher Li Weiughed out loud at Tang Li Xue''s reaction and said: "What kind of dirty thing are you thinking, littless? You are still a tiny fox toddler, but already have dirty thoughts like that."
Teacher Li Wei cleared his throat and exined seriously this time: "What I want to say is that you can take this Metal Body Refinement Talisman, but you need to do something for me in return. This Metal Body Refinement Talisman is very precious. In fact, it is the most precious one amongst the three, so you need to do at least three things for me. How about it? If you agree with it, we will sign the contract together, and I will immediately give it to you."
Tang Li Xue pondered for a few moments before replied in reluctance: "Two things. I will only do two things for you at most, and your requests also must not against my conscience. Doing something like harming Instructor Lan or betraying Myriad Foxes Academy is surely out of question!"
Teacher Li Wei stunned silly for a while beforeughing out loud again while saying: "Little Lass¡ You¡ You are really funny¡ so funny! Do you think you are in the human faction where they are betraying one against another? Little Lass... Oh, Little Lass... In the Beast Race, even the worst beast will never do something to harm their own race. And also, do you really think you can harm that Dummy Lan with your pathetic level of strength?"
"It seems you have failed to understand your Instructor''s true strength. She is pampering all of her students too much including. That is why I always called her Dummy Lan. Listen up, Little Lass! That Dummy Lan has a very scary level of strength, even I would never dare to underestimate her. The reason why she appears a bit weak in front of all of her students is because she does not want to hurt all of you with her true power." Teacher Li Wei genuinely warned Tang Li Xue for her own goods.
"Actually, all of her students that died outside the Myriad Foxes Academy before also misunderstood Dummy Lan''s true strength. That is the reason why they paid dearly with their life. I know you and your friends will follow Dummy Lan when she is doing her mission outside of the Myriad Foxes Academy from now on, so I will give you a piece of advice." Teacher Li Wei said as his expression turned solemn.
"Trust her fully and always do what she ordered you to do." Teacher Li Wei stayed quiet for a few moments to give Tang Li Xue sometime to process his words.
"I always fully trust Instructor Mei Lan¡ But what Teacher Wei means by misunderstood her strength?" Tang Li Xue asked in confusion.
Teacher Li Wei shook his head and patiently exined again: "Dummy Lan has a very very powerful and really wide area of effect divine abilities, and what she has already shown to you all in your training was only the tip of the iceberg, a tiny sliver of her true prowess. But if you and your friends near her, she would never be able to use it at its full strength, or you all would be turned into fox corpses in an instant."
"To be exact, bringing you all on her mission is like bringing a few heavy burdens on her mission. Not only she needs toplete her mission, but she also needs to carefully watch your movement all the time while controlling her strength in battle just so she would not identally hurt you all too. Honestly, I personally think that you all are not ready for this, it''s still too early for you and your friends to do this." Teacher Li Wei concluded his exnation.
Tang Li Xue went silent after she heard Teacher Li Wei''s exnation. For the first time, she finally realized how much Instructor Mei Lan cherished and pampered her, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao.
The time when she was doing the mission with two pampered disciples shed in her mind.
''If I follow Instructor Lan on her mission¡ I¡ Will I be the same as them? A burden for Instructor Lan¡'' Tang Li Xue also realized that she was stillcking a lot in many areaspared with her Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan did not bring Tang Li Xue and the others to help herplete the mission but in order for them to gain more experience and grow faster under the pressure.
"Doesn''t it mean I should not stay near Instructor Lan when she is fighting someone strong?" Tang Li Xue asked Teacher Li Wei.
Teacher Li Wei shook his head again and replied: "You do not need to think too much. You and your friends still have no experience, so how could you all judge the situation clearly. You all just need to follow Dummy Lan''s order and never trying to act smart on your own, then everything will be all right."
"Okay! Let''s get back to our main topic!" Teacher Li Wei took a bigger talisman paper from his space pouch and wrote something on it, using his inscription pen and his own blood as the ink.
"I still have something important to do, so I don''t have time to bargain with you. Actually, two requests are far from enough to be traded with Metal Body Refinement Talisman, but I will reluctantly ept it because you are my own student. Use your blood to sign on this agreement, and you can take the Metal Body Refinement Talisman away." Teacher Li Wei gave the big yellow talisman paper to Tang Li Xue.
"Teacher Wei¡ why do we need to be this formal? Just promise between us is not enough?" Tang Li Xue felt offended by what Teacher Li Wei did. She felt Teacher Li Wei did not trust her.
Teacher Li Wei chuckled at Tang Li Xue''s question and replied: "Little Lass, do you really think you are trustworthy enough? You probably will run away or pretend not to understand if I asked you to do something without any proof like this."
Tang Li Xue pouted and begrudgingly bit her thumb, then sticking her thumb on the yellow talisman paper.
After giving back the yellow talisman paper to Teacher Li Wei, Teacher Li Wei took out the ck jade box containing the ten ancient ck talismans from his space pouch and gave it to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue happily epted it. She checked the content of the ck jade box to make sure Teacher Li Wei did not give her the wrong one before storing it into her space pouch.
After talking and asking for a few things, Tang Li Xue bid her farewell to Teacher Li Wei and brought Yaya out from Teacher Li Wei''s ce.
Tang Li Xue was really afraid that Little Loki''s condition would be worsened, so she brought Yaya and hastily heading directly back together to the Residential Building.
When Tang Li Xue and Yaya arrived in front of her room''s door, someone unexpected already waited for them there.
"Eh... Instructor Lan! Why are you here?" Tang Li Xue yelled in surprise.
Instructor Mei Lan already spotted Tang Li Xue and Yaya first, so she only giggled and waved her hand at them.
Chapter 283: Instructor Mei Lans Interrogation!
Chapter 283: Instructor Mei Lan''s Interrogation!
Tang Li Xue waited in front of Instructor Mei Lan''s front gate for quite a long time, but it seems Instructor Mei Lan waited in front of Tang Li Xue''s room for a long time ago too.
Tang Li Xueughed at how they could miss their timing to meet with each other like this. If she knew it, she would rather just wait patiently in her room for Instructor Mei Lan toe.
"I have something to ask and something to give to you. Let''s discuss this at your ce." Instructor Mei Lan said with a gentle smile on her face, but her obsidian eyes kept staring at Tang Li Xue full of curiosity.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shivered violently when she sensed Instructor Mei Lan''s probing stare.
Somehow, Tang Li Xue felt Instructor Mei Lan actually came to interrogate her today instead.
Tang Li Xue suddenly felt that she did not want to meet with Instructor Mei Lan anymore now.
She already had Metal Body Refinement Talisman from Teacher Li Wei to treat Little Loki''s illness anyway.
Unfortunately, it was already toote for Tang Li Xue to regret it now, and she could not drive Instructor Mei Lan away too.
Tang Li Xue reluctantly invited Instructor Mei Lan to sit in her living room.
Tang Li Xue did not have any valuable tea like Spirit Tea or Rejuvenation Tea, so she only served a cup of in water to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan sat leisurely on the sofa in Tang Li Xue''s living room while crossed her long slender legs.
Her sitting posture was elegant and perfect, just like a nobledy. She slowly took a sip of the in water in her cup while kept staring judgingly at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue did not dare to meet Instructor Mei Lan''s stare, so her topaz blue eyes stared nkly at the other ce to avoid it.
Instructor Mei Lan could detect from Tang Li Xue''s habit that she had definitely done something horrible or involved in something messy outside of the Myriad Foxes Academy if she started to act like this.
Instructor Mei Lan did not try to pry any information about what Tang Li Xue had done outside of the Myriad Foxes Academy for now. On the contrary, she told some good news to Tang Li Xue first.
"I heard you manage toplete the legendary escort mission from the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association. Not bad, Little Xue! You have really grown up!" Instructor Mei Lan generously praised Tang Li Xue.
"Eh? Legendary escort mission? Instructor Lan, why is that mission called legendary? Isn''t it only a D-grade mission?" Tang Li Xue asked in puzzlement.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled at Tang Li Xue and patiently exined: "The reason is simple. The mission is indeed only at D-grade, but the difficulty has risen exponentially because of the personality of the people who need to be escorted. You should already know about them, right?"
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding and replied: "Ahhh¡ Yes, the two pampered disciples from Pharmacy and Alchemist Association really like to make things a lot difficult."
"That is right. The mission difficulty may have even risen to C-Grade, while the mission''s reward still stays the same. The silver ranked foxes did not dare to take the mission, but the gold-ranked foxes would never want to take lower difficulty mission since the reward is not worthy of their effort." Instructor Mei Lan concluded her exnation still with a gentle smile on her face.
"The foxes in the mission hall already know this mission''s level of difficulty? Isn''t that means some of the foxes already taken that mission before and escort them out of the Myriad Foxes Academy?" Tang Li Xue asked curiously, but she immediately caught something from Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation.
"Eh? Mission''s reward? Eeeeehhhh?! There is a reward forpleting that mission? But¡ But the staff from the mission hall did not give me anything before!" Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise and eximed with a tone filled with displeasure.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at Tang Li Xue''s expression and replied: "Yes, some foxes already took the mission before, but some of them immediately give up after they meet with the disciples from Pharmacy and Alchemist Association. A few of them even got into a squabble with the disciples, and they almost fought with each other."
"The reward for the mission is only 10,000 credits at first, but the Pharmacy and Alchemist Association increased it to 50,000 credits just recently. The mission hall was really satisfied with your achievement so they added it again to 80,000 credits." Instructor Mei Lan said as she took her white jade badge.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering brightly, and she quickly took out her silver badge too to receive her mission reward while grinning happily.
''Earning 80,000 credits whilepleting the Silver-Trial mission! This is what I call killing two birds with one stone! Hehehe¡'' Tang Li Xue thought in delight.
"Wait a minute¡ Why do I feel like you are still hiding something important from me?" Instructor Mei Lan murmured as if she was pondering something.
Tang Li Xue''s expression immediately turned dark.
''I am really too na?ve! I should have known that Instructor Mei Lan would never be kind enough to deliver my mission''s reward onto my front door. So this is her true intention!'' Tang Li Xue started to feel a headache.
"Ins¡ Instructor Mei Lan¡ We¡ We can talk about thatter. Please give me my mission reward first... Actually, there is nothing important happened in my mission¡" Tang Li Xue murmured, but she still did not dare to look directly at Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes glinted with sharpness when she heard Tang Li Xue''s words.
Instructor Mei Lan already knew Tang Li Xue long enough to recognize all of her habits.
If there was really nothing that happened in her mission, Tang Li Xue would say ''there is nothing interesting happened'' instead of ''there is nothing important happened''.
Since she said so, it means some important events should have been happening while she was doing her mission in Quanhai City.
With Instructor Mei Lan''s high intelligence, she could surely know everything if she investigated it for a bit.
But Instructor Mei Lan did not want to do it. She wanted Tang Li Xue to tell everything to her ording to her own will.
Instructor Mei Lan wanted to nt this habit in Tang Li Xue bit by bit, so Tang Li Xue would talk everything to her honestly without holding anything back.
"Hummm¡ so nothing important happened¡ But that sticky blood substance seems quite important to me. That is all right. I will not disturb your rest anymore. I will go back now." Instructor Mei Lan stood out from her seat and walked toward the exit door.
"Instructor Lan, please wait¡ my reward is¡" Tang Li Xue stopped Instructor Mei Lan and asked anxiously.
"What reward? I never said that your mission reward is with me, right? Ask for it yourself at the mission hall!" Instructor Mei Lan replied with an oblivious tone.
Tang Li Xue''s lips twitched violently when she saw Instructor Mei Lan started to act shamelessly like this.
If Tang Li Xue went to the mission hall right now, they would certainly say that they already gave it to her guardian since Instructor Mei Lan was the one who gave her the rmendation letter before.
But if Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan againter after she went to the mission hall, Instructor Mei Lan would surely pretend not to know about it like now.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only sigh in resignation, and she started to tell Instructor Mei Lan everything that happened in her escorting mission at Quanhai City.
Of course, she did not tell Instructor Mei Lan anything about Little Loki and how Little Loki''s egg hatched before.
Tang Li Xue also told Instructor Mei Lan that the people from the Immortal Sword Sect were the ones who took the fragment of divine treasure from the blood pool in the end.
With Instructor Mei Lan''s sharp mind, she also realized that Tang Li Xue omitted some important parts of the story, but she did not mind it at all.
Instructor Mei Lan''s true aim was not to find out or interfere with Tang Li Xue''s affairs, but to teach Tang Li Xue about her wrongdoings.
After listened to Tang Li Xue''s story to end, Instructor Mei Lan started to lecture Tang Li Xue.
"Why do you keep yielding to those two idiots? You should teach them one or two harsh lessons so they will listen to you. In the mission, it is really important to establish your authority. You should show them who is in charge!"
"Are you stupid? Why do you let them do whatever they want at the front gate? You do not even need to create such a bigmotion. You only need to steal the documents from the others. Don''t tell me you can''t even steal from the weak humans?"
"You even let them act like that in the pharmacy store?! Are you crazy? You really should thank your luck! If someone powerful backing that store, your life would have already forfeited by now!"
¡..
¡
.
Instructor Mei Lan scolded Tang Li Xue and told her about her mistakes. She hoped that Tang Li Xue could fix it and not repeat her mistake in the future.
Tang Li Xue could feel her ears heated up by Instructor Mei Lan''s harsh scold, but she learned a lot from it too.
After a few hours, Instructor Mei Lan finally gave Tang Li Xue her deserved mission reward before bid farewell to Tang Li Xue and went home.
Instructor Mei Lan also warned Tang Li Xue sternly to attend the ss and the special training tomorrow before she was going home.
Tang Li Xue could only groan and beg Instructor Mei Lan to give her some time to rest, but Instructor Mei Lanpletely ignored her pleading.
Chapter 284: Hei Yinghao and Bing Yis return!
Chapter 284: Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi''s return!
The sky outside already turned dark when Instructor Mei Lan went back from Tang Li Xue''s ce.
Tang Li Xue entered her bedroom and sat on the top of her bed before she took out Little Loki from her system pet storage and put it in front of her.
Yaya also sat on the top of her pillow on the bed and yawned widely in sleepiness.
Tang Li Xue also took out the ck jade box from inside her space pouch and opened it. There were ten ancient ck talismans stored inside the ck jade box.
Tang Li Xue grabbed the ten ancient ck talismans, but her hands trembled a little in nervousness.
"I hope these ck talismans could really cure the Little Loki''s illness... Because I really do not want to ask for another helps from Teacher Wei." Tang Li Xue murmured while puckered her pink lips in dissatisfaction.
She was actually really not willing to give two requests for Teacher Li Wei. Because it would be quite troublesome if Teacher Li Wei asked for something out of Tang Li Xue''s capability.
She could only hope Teacher Li Wei did not ask for something despicable tooter, like giving her divine treasure to him or something like that.
Tang Li Xue sighed in frustration while gently stroking Little Loki''s soft and smooth ck fur.
"Little Loki, I already do everything I can to get these ck talismans. I hope it can help you and make you get better soon." Tang Li Xue whispered to Little Loki.
The ten ancient ck talismans were actually one set of Metal Body Refinement Talisman. The tenplicated abstruse runes inscribed into ten ancient ck talismans were actually oneplete array just like a clock and its gears.
Tang Li Xue''s inscriptionist level was still too low, so she could not understand any of theseplicated abstruse runes yet.
These ten ancient ck talismans should be used at once at the same time on one target in order for it to works.
Tang Li Xue as the talismans'' controller must also carefully control the output of the array, so Little Loki could absorb the Metal Body Refinement Array safely without any unwanted side effects.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm her nerves but her expression turned solemn, then she threw the ten ancient ck talismans towards Little Loki at once.
The eight ancient ck talismans were immediately arranged by themselves in the form of the eight-pointed star diagram, while thest two ancient ck talismans were orbiting on the top of its target, the Little Loki.
WWEEEEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
The eight-pointed star diagram shone with dazzling golden light, and the dazzling golden light was shooting towards the center of two ancient ck talismans above Little Loki.
The golden light became a lot dimmer when it rained upon the unconscious Little Loki because Tang Li Xue deliberately decreased the intensity. She nned to see if the unconscious Little Loki could really absorb the baptism of Metal Body Refinement array or not.
After making sure that Little Loki could really absorb it, Tang Li Xue slowly increased the output intensity bit by bit.
"Damn it! This is more tiring than I thought... If I have my perfect copy''s help right now, controlling these talismans should be much easier..." Tang Li Xueined while her sweat kept pouring out from her forehead.
"Sigh... I still need to wait eight more days until my [Twin Moons] divine ability finishes its cooldown, who knows if Little Loki can really hold on until then! I can only hope Little Loki canpletely absorb the baptism of Metal Body Refinement array before Ipletely exhausted." Tang Li Xue murmured as she shook her head and decided to focus more on controlling all the talismans instead.
As if the unconscious Little Loki could hear Tang Li Xue''s words, it started to greedily absorb the baptism of Metal Body Refinement array.
At first, Tang Li Xue did not dare to let Little Loki absorbed too much of it at once, but after she sensed Little Loki''s eagerness through her mental connection, she started to increase the output intensity more and more.
Although the speed of Little Loki''s absorption has greatly increased, but the absorption process would still take at least two or three hours toplete, while Tang Li Xue could probably only be able to persist for more than an hour.
Tang Li Xue tried to think of a way to make her staminast longer, but she still could not think of any way out.
WWEEEEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
Suddenly, Tang Li Xue felt her load somewhat lightened a lot, and she widened her eyes in disbelief.
She looked around in puzzlement and managed to found out the one who helped her¡
"Yaya!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
Yes, Yaya was the one who helped her in controlling the Metal Body Refinement Array.
"Yaya, thank you¡ I promise to treat you to a lot of delicious food tomorrow! You can eat as many as you want." Tang Li Xue giggled and said to Yaya.
"Ya? Yayaya~~!!!" Yaya happily babbled. She really wanted to rush toward Tang Li Xue and showered Tang Li Xue with her kisses, but she could not move right now.
Both of them fully focused on controlling the Metal Body Refinement Array.
The baptism process was finallypleted after three hours.
The exhausted Yaya immediately fell asleep on the soft pillow.
Tang Li Xue was also very exhausted. She really wanted to go directly asleep on her soft bed too, but she forced herself to remain sober and checked on Little Loki''s condition.
Tang Li Xue was still afraid if the Metal Body Refinement Talisman would make Little Loki''s condition even worse.
Fortunately, what Tang Li Xue has feared did not happen.
On the contrary, Little Loki''s high fever has started to rapidly go down.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and slumped limply on her softfortable bed as her consciousness faded away, and she fell asleep too in exhaustion just like Yaya.
The next morning, Tang Li Xue woke upte again. Yaya was also very exhausted yesterday, so she could not wake up early like usual.
Tang Li Xue checked Little Loki''s condition again, but find that it was only asleep right now.
It seems Little Loki already all right, but Little Loki still needs some time to digest the enormous amount of energy contained in the divine treasure''s fragment.
Little Loki would only regain its consciousness after itpletely digested everything.
Tang Li Xue stored the sleeping Little Loki back into her system pet storage before she brought Yaya and took a bath together.
Tang Li Xue hastily dashed toward the Education Building, but she was stille toote and got punished by Instructor Mei Lan.
After the ss was over, Tang Li Xue realized that she could not summon out her perfect copy yet, so¡ which additional lessons she should take? Instructor Mei Lan''s special training, Teacher Li Wei''s Inscriptionist lesson, or Teacher Bai Wuchen''s spirit andbat training?
For the first time, Tang Li Xue realized the difficulty of not having her perfect copy to rece her.
She was forced to attend three additional lessons at once after the ss by those heartless Teachers and Instructors!
Neither the three of them wanted to budge if Tang Li Xue did not attend even one of them. She would be surely punished harshly by that teacher.
After undergoing the lessons and training like hell in a few days, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao finallypleted their mission and came back to the Myriad Foxes Academy too.
Tang Li Xue weed them back happily, and the three of them have a feast in the luxurious restaurant on the first floor of the Residential Building together.
Tang Li Xue told Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao all of her grievances in these few days from her nightmare difficulty mission until hell-like training and lessons from the Instructor Mei Lan and two teachers.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao did not know whether to cry orugh at Tang Li Xue''s story, but they told Tang Li Xue about their mission too in return.
It seems there was no easy mission that was given to them by the mission hall.
Hei Yinghao thought his mission to hunt the criminal and kill him was the easiest one, but he waspletely wrong.
The criminal Hei Yinghao need to hunt was actually a professional thief and an expert of disguise.
Hei Yinghao hunted the criminal tirelessly day and night, but the criminal was still capable of escaping from him again and again.
In fact, Hei Yinghao already caught the criminal more than five times, but the criminal still managed to slip away from Hei Yinghao like a magician and blend into the crowd by disguising himself.
If not for Hei Yinghao''s sharp [Spirit Perception]bined with his super-speed and reflexes, it was probably impossible for him to in the criminal in the end andplete his mission just like now.
Tang Li Xue stared pitifully at Hei Yinghao.
At first, Tang Li Xue also felt really envious of Hei Yinghao when she carried out her mission with the two annoying disciples from Pharmacy and Alchemist Association.
She thought it would be best if her mission was to kill these two annoying disciples instead.
However, Tang Li Xue also felt strange that Hei Yinghao got an assassination mission even though he came from Inspector ss.
Now she finally knew the reason why Hei Yinghao got that mission¡
It was because the mission hall needs someone from Inspector ss to track and find a slippery target like that thief before killing him.
Chapter 285: Little Loki Woke Up!
Chapter 285: Little Loki Woke Up!
Tang Li Xue pondered carefully for a while on how she couldplete the mission if she was the one who received Hei Yinghao''s mission.
''Hmm... My [Extrasensory Perception] is the upgrade version of [Spirit Perception], so my detection skill should be sharper and better than Silly Fox. I also have Yaya and my perfect copy, so catching that slippery thief should be easier for me to do too.'' Tang Li Xue concluded that she could definitelyplete Hei Yinghao''s mission more easily than Hei Yinghao himself.
Even Bing Yi''s mission, which they all thought to be the most boring mission among them, was actually much harder than it should be.
She must pick the precious herbs from the [Rare] grade demonic beast''sir!
Moreover, there were not only one, but two [Rare] grade demonic beasts living in thatir!
They were a pair of [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars], and both of them were equally swift and powerful.
Of course, Bing Yi would not dare to forcefully break into their and take the precious herb from the two[ Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars] just like that.
Even Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao would not dare to do that.
So Bing Yi decided to carefully watch the habit of two [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars] in a few days.
After observed their schedule for a few days, Bing Yi realized that the two [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars] would take turns to hunt for their foods every day, so both of them would never leave theirir empty.
Bing Yi decided to make her move when one of the two [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars] went out of theirir to hunt!
Bing Yi could not fight a long battle with the [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguar] since the other [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguar] coulde back anytime, so she used her concentrated [Freezing Field] to freeze the [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguar] for a few moments and used that time to take the precious herbs inside theirir.
After the [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguar] broke free from Bing Yi''s freeze, Bing Yi immediately escaped from their as fast as she could.
The [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguar] chased after Bing Yi so fiercely while howled loudly to call for itspanion.
It did not take long for the other [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguar] to arrive and chasing after Bing Yi too.
Bing Yi was not an agile type like Hei Yinghao or the versatile type like Tang Li Xue, so she could not shake off the two [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars]''s chasing. While the two [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguar] have the speed at least twice faster than her.
Fortunately, Bing Yi could use her freezing power to hinder the two [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars] from catching up to her.
Bing Yi got chased by the two [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars] for a few days.
Every time the two [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars] got close to her, she would freeze them into ice statues for a few seconds, so they could not attack her.
When Bing Yi almost gotpletely exhausted, she managed to reach her teleportation point. She used her golden ticket and entered the space gate before the two [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars] could free themselves from her freezing effect.
For the first time, Bing Yi really thanked Instructor Mei Lan for the hellish training that improved her stamina a lot, reduced her cast time, and made her able to move around unhindered while kept casting her divine ability without any interruption.
Tang Li Xue pondered carefully again on what she would do if she was in the same situation as Bing Yi.
''It should be a piece of cake for me, right? I have my [Ethereal Form], so I can easily waltz into their by using it, take the precious herbs under those two [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars]''s noses, and used my [Ethereal Form] to escape. '' Tang Li Xue nodded her head.
She was really satisfied with her current all-rounder skills and divine abilities.
''Even if I cannot use my [Ethereal Form], I can still face the two [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars] head-on if I want to. If I count myself, my perfect copy, my martial soul, and Yaya, it will be four against one. I doubt those two [Saber-Tooth Shadow Jaguars] are tough enough to face four of us at once!'' Tang Li Xue thought full of confidence.
After eating the delicious foods to their heart content, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao decided to go back to their own respective room and sleep for today.
Tang Li Xue also went back to her room with Yaya, but she immediately summoned out Little Loki from her system pet storage to check on its condition.
In these few days, Little Loki''s high fever had already gone down, but it still in a deep sleep as usual to digest the abundant energy of divine fragment.
Just when Tang Li Xue started to get really worried if Little Loki would never regain its consciousness¡
"Nyaaa~~!!!" Little Loki yawned cutely while slowly opened its third eye.
It used its tiny paw to rub its closed pair of eyes beforezily stretched its stiff small body.
"Little Loki!" Tang Li Xue happily called Little Loki. She immediately picked up the tiny Little Loki and gently embraced it.
The jealous Yaya could only puff her cheek in displeasure and stared at Little Loki in irritation.
Tang Li Xueughed at the childish Yaya and hugged her too with the other hand.
"Yaya, you cannot act like that. Little Loki is your little brother. As his big sister, how could you always feel jealous of your little brother?" Tang Li Xue gently told Yaya.
Yaya nodded while smiling in contentment at Tang Li Xue''s embrace.
Yaya looked at Little Loki and started to babble: "Ya¡ Yayaya~!"
"Nyan nyaa~!" Little Loki leisurely replied.
From their mental connection, Tang Li Xue could understand that Yaya apologized to Little Loki and Little Loki magnanimously told Yaya that it did not mind.
Somehow Tang Li Xue could feel that Little Loki''s mentality was a lot more mature than both Yaya and Phoenix of Pride, although it hatched from its egg just recently.
Yaya immediately fell asleep under Tang Li Xue''s warm embrace. Despite always looking energetic, she was actually quite exhausted today. Because she just finished taking the lesson and training of Instructor Mei Lan''s mother.
Tang Li Xue put the sleeping Yaya on the soft bed and covered her with a warm nket.
Little Loki just woke up from a few days of sleeping, so it did not feel sleepy anymore. Little Loki even told Tang Li Xue that it has already grown much more powerful than before after absorbed the energy of the divine treasure''s fragment.
Tang Li Xue''s eyes brightened and she curiously asked Little Loki: "Really? How strong you are right now?"
Little Loki thought for a while.
It did not want Tang Li Xue to depend on it too much.
Little Loki knew that it would definitely meet with many strong enemies in the future, so it wanted Tang Li Xue to be strong and dependable too. At least, strong enough to not be a burden.
Little Loki humbly pointed back at Tang Li Xue. It wanted to tell Tang Li Xue that it has already as strong as her.
Tang Li Xueughed off at Little Loki and patted its tiny furry head gently: " All right, Little Loki is so amazing~! Little Loki can eat this as a reward then."
Tang Li Xue obviously did not believe Little Loki''s words at all.
Tang Li Xue even gave tens of [Umon] grade demonic beast cores to Little Loki as its snacks. Different from the [Rare] grade demonic beast cores, the [Umon] grade demonic beast cores like these were not expensive at all since the number was too much in the market.
Little Loki rolled its third eye at Tang Li Xue, but it still happily ate all of the [Umon] grade demonic beast cores Tang Li Xue gave to it.
Actually, Little Loki''s current prowess was really hard to be estimated even by itself.
Little Loki''s power lies in its ability to devour everything, but its current cub body could not hold much more energy.
Even after it received the baptism of Metal Body Refinement Talisman, which strengthen its cub body by a lot, but the energy from divine treasure''s fragment was too much for it to handle.
Currently, Little Loki was like a full water container.
Eating a little snack like these [Umon] grade demonic beast cores was still alright, but if it devoured something like a Foundation Establishment Expert or [Rare] grade demonic beast core, the power in its tiny body would be too much for it to handle again, and it would enter the samea condition like before.
Normally, any Taotie''s cub like Little Loki would enter a deep long sleep for hundreds to thousands of years until their tiny cub''s body grew up more, and they were ready to devour another batch of energy to increase their cultivation further.
But Little Loki was unwilling to do that. It did not want to make Tang Li Xue worry, and it wanted to see Tang Li Xue grow step by step closely by her side just like Yaya and Phoenix of Pride.
Unknowing even by itself, Little Loki''s bond and attachment to Tang Li Xue right now was in no way inferior to Yaya and Phoenix of Pride at all.
The oblivious Tang Li Xue did not know any of these things. She put down Little Loki gently on herp and stroked its smooth soft fur a few times while used her other hand to open her status window in her system.
Tang Li Xue''s Spirit stat was currently at 954. She put 46 free stat points into her Spirit stat to increase it to 1,000.
As usual, a great headache started to assault her mind for a few moments, but after that, she felt something strange happening to her soul¡
It was a weird sensation, but veryfortable¡
As if her consciousness and soul were connected to something pure and got purified by that thing¡
"RRROOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAARRRR~~!!!"
Chapter 286: Partial Merge!
Chapter 286: Partial Merge!
Tang Li Xue''s martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], wasing out on its own and roaring out loud above Tang Li Xue''s house.
[Golden Winged Serpent] flew in circles above Tang Li Xue''s house and courtyard in rejoice, while Tang Li Xue still sat in the lotus position with her eyes closed on her bed.
Tang Li Xue also did not understand what was happening to her right now, but she could feel that it was not something bad at all. On the contrary, it must be something very beneficial to her.
''It seems after my Spirit stat reaches 1,000, my soul and consciousness managed to breakthrough some limitation. Hopefully, I can get something good¡ like new divine ability or upgrade¡'' Tang Li Xue thought while giggling in delight.
Even her silky silver furry fox tail was wagging right and left in excitement.
Tang Li Xue kept her eyes closed and enjoyed thefortable sensationing from the core of her soul.
She could also feel her connection with her martial soul was getting stronger and stronger.
She could control her martial soul far easier now, and she also felt that all of her sensespletely connected with her martial soul.
If before she could only see what her martial soul sees, then right now, she could also sense everything that her martial soul''s sense.
If her martial soul was something she controlled remotely before like a flying sword, then right now, her martial soul had already be a part of herself... an extension of herself like her own limbs.
Tang Li Xue''s martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], has the water elemental, so it has the power of purification, although it was not very strong like the light elemental.
When the connection between the [Golden Winged Serpent] and Tang Li Xue''s soul strengthened, Tang Li Xue''s soul was also purified by the water elemental power of the [Golden Winged Serpent].
Thanks to the purification effect, Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] be a lot sharper and sensitive than before. Even the power of her soul has grown more powerful and steadier despite her Spirit stat still remained at 1,000 points.
"RRROOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAARRRR~~!!!"
The [Golden Winged Serpent] roared out loud once more and shed toward Tang Li Xue''s direction.
Just before its huge golden body almost crashed onto the roof above Tang Li Xue''s bedroom, it turned into blinding golden light and flew past through the roof beforending on Tang Li Xue''s slender body.
The warm and dazzling golden light wrapped Tang Li Xue''s body for a few moments before shrunk little by little.
In the end, the dazzling golden light only covered both of Tang Li Xue''s hands and solidified into something.
When Tang Li Xue opened her eyes, she stared dumbfounded at her hands.
"What the hell is this? A pair of golden gauntlets?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in surprise.
A pair of golden gauntlets wrapped Tang Li Xue''s entire forearm from her palm to her elbow, and each of the golden gauntlet''s finger was very sharp like dragon ws.
The pair of golden gauntlets made Tang Li Xue''s pair of cute tiny palms looked a lot bigger than usual. It definitely looked much more menacing and dangerous than her usual cute tiny white palm.
"This¡ is not bad¡ It looks really cool and impressive¡" Tang Li Xue murmured as she carefully inspected the pair of golden gauntlets on her hands.
The more she stared at it, the fonder she became with it.
Tang Li Xue immediately understood what happened the moment she saw the pair of golden gauntlets on her hands.
Martial Soul Compression!
Just like that Yang¡ something, the elder of Immortal Sword Sectpressed his lotus martial soul into the crimson-colored sword.
Tang Li Xue could alsopress her martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent], into a pair of golden gauntlets right now!
"Its appearance is really cool, but why the color is gold?! It looks too eye-catching! Can I try to change its color? Its color should be silver, so it would match the color of my hair and fur!" Tang Li Xue frowned deeply andined.
Of course, the color could not be changed no matter how much Tang Li Xueined. The color of the weaponpressed from the martial soul would always correspond with the color of the martial soul''s true form.
Just like how the swordpressed from the [Nine Petal Blood Lotus] have blood-red color, the pair of gauntletspressed from the [Golden Winged Serpent] would also have shiny-golden color.
Tang Li Xue immediately sensed Little Loki and Yaya stared nkly at her after she woke up from her daze.
Tang Li Xue blushed in embarrassment. She reached out her hands to pat at the heads of Little Loki and Yaya but realized that she was still wearing the golden gauntlets, so she pulled her hands again.
Since she still wore the golden gauntlets on her hands, she decided to test the power of her golden gauntlets for a bit.
Tang Li Xue could feel that her hands'' speed and strength increased several times after wearing this pair of golden gauntlets, but the benefit she got was not only that.
Tang Li Xue waved her hand, and the water inside the teapot flew out under her control.
"How interesting! So I can also use all of [Golden Winged Serpent]''s unique skills when I wear these golden gauntlets!" Tang Li Xue said as she smiled again in excitement.
Tang Li Xue unsummoned her martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent], and her pair of golden gauntlets on her hands also vanished into thin air.
Tang Li Xue told Yaya and Little Loki to go back to sleep. She apanied them until they fell asleepfortably on the soft bed.
After that, Tang Li Xue sat on the lotus position again, and her consciousness entered into her Dantian.
She dripped a drop of her blood onto the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl], and she entered the Sun Dragon King''s memories again.
This already became Tang Li Xue''s habit every night.
Although, she was still exhausted because of the harsh training from Instructor Mei Lan, the stressful Inscription Lesson from Teacher Li Wei, and the exhausting Spirit Perception Training from Teacher Bai Wuchen, but she would still set aside a few hours to dive into Sun Dragon King''s memories before sleeping.
Tang Li Xue could already survive several days in Sun Dragon King''s memories but still could not survive past the ten days.
She even started to think this Sun Dragon King''s memories were a scam made by Sun Dragon King itself.
How could a mere dragon''s cub survive in this kind of dangerous environment?!
But it was actually only Tang Li Xue''s narrow-mindedness.
All the mythical beasts were powerful because they were always harsh in training and tempering themselves, so how could they pamper their cubs or their children. Almost all of them were equally ruthless to their descendant too.
Although they were not very cruel like how the four evil fiend beasts threw their cubs away and abandon them without any care, but they would still quite ruthless to temper their cubs.
Actually, not only the Sun Dragon King''s parents, who threw their ready to hatch eggs in the middle of the dangerous forest but the other mythical beasts would also do that.
It was like the trial for their children, something like how the baby learns to crawl.
Of course, it was only in the past. Currently, the number of mythical beasts already dwindled a lot, so no mythical beasts'' parents crazy enough to do that anymore.
They would only use this kind of memories projection to train their cubs or children.
The reason why the ancient mythical beast dared to do that because their cubs usually already have high intelligence the moment they were born, just like how Little Loki right now.
Not only do they have a sturdy body and mighty strength, but they also have powerful divine ability since birth!
Tang Li Xue did not know any of that, and she also did not have the peerless beast instinct just like any mythical beasts'' cubs, so it was very hard for her to only pass the beginning part of this Sun Dragon King''s memories.
Survived for 4 days¡ then died under the giant eagle''s w¡
Survived for 5 days¡ then died again after got swallowed by a big venus trap¡
Survived for 3 days¡ then died under the huge monkey''s beating¡
Tang Li Xue spent almost 1 month of survival training in the Sun Dragon King''s memories, but only a few minutes had passed in the real world.
Tang Li Xue only decided to stop after her consciousness turned blurry because of her extreme exhaustion.
It was not her body that was very exhausted, but her mind and soul.
She crawled on her bed and fell asleep so tightly with Yaya and Little Loki until morning.
Yaya was the first to wake up early in the morning. She immediately woke up Tang Li Xue too.
Tang Li Xuezily rose from her bed while yawning widely.
She brought Yaya and took a bath together.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to take Little Loki out with her, but she did not want anyone to see Little Loki''s true form yet. She could only apologize sincerely to Little Loki and made a promise to find a way to disguise its form as soon as possible before stored it into her system pet storage.
After that, Tang Li Xue hastily went out from her room with Yaya to meet with Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others.
All of them went out together from the Residential Building and swiftly heading onto the Education Building.
Chapter 287: Foxes Hunting Festival!
Chapter 287: Foxes Hunting Festival!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, Li Jing, Hei Yinghao, and the others arrived in the ss on time, so they would not get punished by Instructor Mei Lan.
A few seconds after they all arrived, Instructor Mei Lan also entered into the ssroom while smiled gently as usual to them and said: "All of you are really lucky today."
Tang Li Xue and the others shuddered violently by Instructor Mei Lan''s simple words.
It was clear that Instructor Mei Lan already nned to torture¡ I mean punish them harshly if they werete today.
"All right, everyone. Before we start our lesson for today, I will announce something important first." Instructor Mei Lan said to everyone with a solemn expression from in front of the ss.
"Li Jing, Gan Aomiao, Huang Hao, and Hei Yinghao! All of you must also attend my special training along with Little Xue and Bingbing after ss starting today!" Instructor Mei Lan announced to them.
"Eh? Why Instructor Lan? I still have to attend my training session with Teacher Bai after ss." Hei Yinghao replied in disagreement.
"Instructor Lan, what is the purpose of this special training? Honestly, I do not even have any credits to eat my lunch today, so I want to take some missions from the Mission Hall to obtain some credits frompleting it." Huang Hao also added while groaning.
Li Jing and Gan Aomiao were smarter than those two male foxes. They knew that Instructor Mei Lan would never force them to attend something they did not want unless something urgent would about toe up soon.
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi already started to attend Instructor Lan''s torturous special training from a few weeks ago until now, so it did not make any difference for them. In fact, they were more than happy to have several friends to share their suffering.
"Quiet!" Instructor Mei Lan only needs one word to silenced them all and made them did not dare to protest anymore.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at them one by one with a serious expression before saying: "The Foxes Hunting Festival will begin three months from now. But all of you are still too weak and far from ready topete with the other foxes just yet. Therefore I will whip you all into shape starting from today!"
"Foxes Hunting Festival?!" Tang Li Xue and the others murmured in confusion.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at their confused expression, and her solemn face turned back into her usual rxed expression again.
"Foxes Hunting Festival is thepetition which is held once every ten years in the branch of Myriad Foxes Academy at every continent." Instructor Mei Lan told them.
"Woah?! All the branches of Myriad Foxes Academy from every continent will attend thispetition?! What a hugepetition!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise and awe.
"All the young foxes from every branch of Myriad Foxes Academy would be sent into a veryrge special space by several Spirit Beast level Foxes in their branch of Myriad Foxes Academy. In that space, there were countless precious resources from miracle fruits to incredible precious herbs, but you mustpete with the other foxes to obtain them." Instructor Mei Lan patiently exined to them.
"There are no rules in that space. You can rob and even kill the other foxes inside that space. The foxes you have killed would not die. They would simply be kicked out from that space and sent back to the branch of Myriad Foxes Academy where they came from." Instructor Mei Lan continued her exnation with a gentle smile on her face.
All of them immediately cheered out happily when they heard it except Li Jing and Tang Li Xue.
It was true they could grab any precious resources they want inside that closed space, but¡ they mustpete with the other hundreds of thousands of foxes from all Myriad Foxes Academy''s branches!
Forget aboutpeting with the elite foxes from the other continents... Tang Li Xue did not even have any confidence inpeting with all the elite foxes from the backwater ce like this Lightwind Continent''s branch.
''Wait a minute¡ why the hell I mustpete and fight with the other elite [Rare] grade foxes?! I should just simply steal the precious resources from them using my [Ethereal Form] then escape! Hehehe¡ Uwahahaha¡ I am so smart!'' Tang Li Xue started to giggle happily on her own.
Looked at the daydreaming Tang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan already knew what she was thinking about right now, Instructor Mei Lan only smirked at Tang Li Xue''s ignorance.
But Instructor Mei Lan did not say anything to Tang Li Xue.
The reason why thispetition held was not only to hone all the young foxes'' skills but also to teach the ignorant and pampered young foxes about the cruelness of the world. It would also teach the arrogant andcent elite foxes that there were many foxes better than themselves out there.
"All right, everyone! We will begin our lesson for today!" Instructor Mei Lan said to all of them and started to teach them about somemon knowledge in the human world.
For Tang Li Xue, thismon knowledge was something that she already knew, but the other foxes like Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao still did not know about it.
Fortunately, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao did not interact much with any human in their silver-rank trial mission. Without any human world''smon knowledge, they probably would not even know if they were sold by some ruffians onto the ve market.
Instructor Mei Lan also taught them about the currency in the human world such as bronze coins, silver coins, and gold coins, along with how to count them.
After the ss was over, Instructor Mei Lan led them all onto the second floor and entered the sparring room.
"Instructor Lan, are we going to y hide and seek again just like before?" Tang Li Xue asked curiously.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled at Tang Li Xue and replied: "Nope! This time I am not going to join in the game. You all will be the only ones who y the hide and seek!"
Instructor Mei Lan gave everyone a tiny bell and told them to tie it onto their waist.
"From now on, everyone other than yourself is your enemies! Your job right now is to take this tiny bell from everyone! The game will end after one of you manages to get the six bells. The winner will get 500 credits, while all the losers will lose 100 credits. Any question?" Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently while exined.
Li Jing raised her hands and asked: "Instructor Lan, we can use all means to get the bells, right? Like setting some traps or cooperate with the other yers?"
Instructor Mei Lan raised her eyebrow a bit at Li Jing''s question, but she still nodded her head and said: "You can do anything to win. Deceiving, cheating, trapping, and swindling are permitted since everything like those are also allowed in the Foxes Hunting Festival."
"Little one, you can go to my mother''s ce now to attend your training and lesson. Your master can surely manage this on her own." Instructor Mei Lan said to Yaya, who hid behind Tang Li Xue to secretly participate in this game, but she still got caught by Instructor Mei Lan and got sent out of the sparring room.
Yaya puffed her cheek cutely and pouted. Tang Li Xueforted her for a bit with their mental connection before Yaya reluctantly went to the ce of Instructor Mei Lan''s mother while kept sulking alone.
Instructor Mei Lan knew that Li Jing would definitely use some scheme to win since Li Jing asked something like that from her, but Instructor Mei Lan did not really care about it and shouted: "Okay, let''s the game start now! Sparring Room Number 2148, Training Mode: Dense Jungle. Nighttime. Level 10. Start!"
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
''At least, we are not in the trap house again like before. Too many dangerous traps there, and it even almost got me before!'' Tang Li Xueined.
"Ah¡ I will warn all of you again. This dense jungle is actually almost as dangerous as the trap house so¡ be really careful and do not make too much noise." Instructor Mei Lanughed with her sweet voice, but the content of her words made Tang Li Xue and the others groaned in frustration.
Their surrounding scene was faded away as usual and everything turned dark in an instant.
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes again, her [Night Vision]''s ability automatically activated, and she could clearly see her surroundings, although it was very dark here.
Tang Li Xue carefully looked around her and realized she was currently in the middle of the dense forest.
There were many giant trees and dense tall grasses that covered her vision. She could barely see anything with her eyes, but fortunately, her [Extrasensory Perception] already became a lot sharper than before and the area of her detection also got a lot wider.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure instantly turned transparent.
Chapter 288: Hunting Practice!
Chapter 288: Hunting Practice!
Tang Li Xue used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and agilely dashing forward.
Her slender figure flickered around, leaving several afterimages behind as she was sprinting with her full speed.
With her [Ethereal Form], Tang Li Xue could pass through every solid thing unhindered, so she did not need to avoid any trees or brambles.
In this dense jungle, Tang Li Xue should be able to move everywhere easily with her [Ethereal Form] without being detected by anyone but¡
CLIIIING~~!!! CLIIIING~~!!! CLIIIING~~!!! CLIIIING~~!!!
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply, and she immediately halted her step.
When Tang Li Xue stopped sprinting, the loud sound of the bell that came from the small bell tied on her waist gradually stopped ringing as well.
Tang Li Xue tried to walk much slower. The small bell tied on her waist started to ringing again but not so loud like before.
"What a troublesome bell! Sigh¡ Instructor Lan really knows how to increase the game difficulty for us!" Tang Li Xue murmured while smiled in irony.
With this bell tied on their waist, it was almost impossible for them to sneak attack the others from behind.
Tang Li Xue pondered it for a few moments and decided to not mind the loud sound of the bell. She kept dashing forward with her full speed to find the others and rob their small bell as soon as possible.
She has her [Extrasensory Perception] any way to detect everything in her surrounding clearly.
She decided to only decrease her speed after she got closer to her targetter.
But Tang Li Xue once again underestimated Instructor Mei Lan''s warning!
When Instructor Mei Lan said: ''be really careful and do not make too much noise!'', she really meant what she said!
SSSHHH~!!!
A finger-sized poisonous snake jumped out toward Tang Li Xue in an instant from behind the bushes.
Tang Li Xue already detected it with her [Extrasensory Perception] before the poisonous snake made any move before.
Although the poisonous snake''s attack could not touch her in the [Ethereal Form], but Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] felt something strange from its poison.
Tang Li Xue did not want to take a risk by touching the poison from the poisonous snake, so she canceled her [Ethereal Form] and began to retaliate.
She leisurely waved her palm and shooting out the [Moon Splitter], which easily sliced the poisonous snake''s body into three tiny parts.
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, the poisonous snake''s incident was only the beginning.
Not only the other poisonous snakes started to assault her, but many other strange bugs also began to charging toward her.
"Ah, I am really so stupid! How could Instructor Lan''s words be so simple?! I should have known it! The sound of this small bell is designed to attract the bugs and beasts in these forests! The louder it ringing, the more bugs and beasts it will attract! I am sure the more bells we have, the more bugs and beasts it will attract too!" Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
These bugs and beasts did not possess any threat to Tang Li Xue, but it was extremely tedious and time-wasting to deal with them.
Tang Li Xue tried to activate her [Ethereal Form] again to get away from them, but her [Ethereal Form] was immediately canceled by the bugs'' attacks!
Yes, each of the bug''s attack actually contained the fire elemental.
Although it was not that strong and could not hurt Tang Li Xue, but it was enough to cancel her [Ethereal Form]!
"Even these tiny bugs have the elemental attack to cancel my [Ethereal Form]?! Sigh¡ Why it seems like Instructor Lan is especially targeting me in this hide and seeks game? This is not fair!" Tang Li Xue started toin.
Actually, Instructor Mei Lan did not intentionally target Tang Li Xue at all.
In fact, any foxes participating in Fox Hunting Festival would receive something to detect the other foxes in the vicinity, so it was almost impossible to sneak attacking anyone in the Fox Hunting Festival.
It could be something like a detection talisman, jade tablet, and so on.
Instructor Mei Lan designed this hide and seek game to get them used to the battle in a chaotic situation like this, while the loud sound of their bell could scatter their concentration anytime and made them distracted by it.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in exasperation.
She expanded her [Extrasensory Perception]''s detection to her maximum radius.
She did not detect anyone near her, so she licked her pinkish lips with a mischievous smile on her face and murmured: "me of Pride... clean them all for me!"
BBBWOOOSSSHHH~~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure started emitting intense heat as the deep-blue me burst out from her body.
The deep-blue me formed a spherical barrier of me. The spherical me barrier was spreading out wider and wider, burning all the annoying bugs and beasts near Tang Li Xue to nothingness.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she cleaned up every insect in her vicinity.
"It seems I really cannot make too much noise or these insects and tiny beasts wille to me like a flood¡" Tang Li Xue whispered to herself. She really has learned her lesson this time.
"Eh?" Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] managed to detect Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and Gan Aomiao approaching her fast.
Tang Li Xue immediately activated her [Ethereal Form] again, and her slender figure vanished into thin air.
She wanted to get away from here and wait for the three of them to fight each other until they were all exhausted. But she decided to not move at all from here since the bell on her waist would ring if she moved around.
The ringing sounds of three bells reverberated through the dense jungle. It was especially loud and clear under the quiet night sky.
It only took a few seconds for Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and Gan Aomiao to meet with each other, and they started to fight against each other.
Tang Li Xue did not join their battle and only watching at them from a few tens of meters away.
There was barrennd under her feet until a few meters away from her because she used her me of Pride to burn everything on her surrounding, but it seems Hei Yinghao and the other did not think much of it.
[Blood Burst]!
[Blood Ignition] ¨C Quadruple Amplification!
Hei Yinghao did not hold back at all, and instantly activated two of his powerful divine abilities.
His speed and strength were increased by multiple folds that Li Jing and Gan Aomiao did not even have any time to react before he already reached them!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAANGGG~~!!!
Hei Yinghao thought he could definitely catch the two of them off guard, and defeat them in one move, but he clearly underestimated Li Jing and Gan Aomiao too much.
They were all the students under Instructor Mei Lan''s tutge, so how could only Tang Li Xue''s team have grown stronger than before?!
Of course, Li Jing''s team also has grown a lot stronger than before. Although all of them were not evolved into [Rare] grade yet like Bing Yi or Hei Yinghao, but they were not that far from it!
[Samantha, Barrier of Tranquillity]!
Hei Yinghao''s punchnded heavily on the golden barrier made by Li Jing''s Buddhist Mantra!
The golden barrier cracked a bit but still stood tall resiliently protecting Li Jing and Gan Aomiao from Hei Yinghao''s assault!
Hei Yinghao knew he would not be able to destroy the golden barrier with his few normal attacks, so he instantly decided to go all out.
[Destruction Force]!
[Lightning of Destruction]!
The ck lightning umted on Hei Yinghao''s right fist, the terrifying crackling sounding from it made the Li Jing and Gan Aomiao in horror.
They knew in an instant if they let Hei Yinghao attack them with that ck lightning, they would surely be defeated in one strike!
Fortunately, Gan Aomiao already made her preparation since a few seconds ago when Li Jing set her golden barrier to protect them!
[Mind Burst]!
This was Gan Aomiao''s new skill derived from her [Mind Hacking] divine ability!
On the contrary of taking control of her enemy''s mind like her [Mind Hacking] divine ability, which was almost impossible to do if she faced with someone stronger than her like Hei Yinghao, this [Mind Burst] overloaded her target''s mind with countless useless information in an instant.
It would make her target lost their concentration and felt a terrible headache in their mind.
It was especially effective on Hei Yinghao, which need great focus, control, and concentration to use his [Destruction Force] and [Lightning of Destruction]!
Thepressed ck lightning on Hei Yinghao''s right fist went berserk when Hei Yinghao lost his control over it.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The ck lightning exploded and struck Hei Yinghao himself heavily until he was thrown off several meters away!
Hei Yinghao tried to stand up swiftly, but coughed out several mouthfuls of blood from his mouth instead!
Li Jing would never let Hei Yinghao recover so easily. She immediately chanted some Buddhist Sutras again to seal Hei Yinghao''s movement!
Hei Yinghao felt his body get heavier and heavier.
He gritted his teeth and still forced himself to stand up.
Chapter 289: Bing Yis New Power!
Chapter 289: Bing Yi''s New Power!
Unfortunately for Hei Yinghao, Li Jing already finished preparing several different seals to obstruct his movement.
Several Buddhist symbols were hovering around Hei Yinghao, then golden chains shot out from those symbols and binding Hei Yinghao''s four limbs.
Hei Yinghao tried to use all of his strength to forcefully break free from the golden chain''s binding, but before he could do that, Gan Aomiao assaulted him once again with her [Mind Burst]!
Hei Yinghao felt a burst of headache and nausea striking his mind.
Even his [Blood Burst] and [Blood Ignition] were canceled as a result since both of them need a certain amount of concentration to maintain
Although, [Blood Burst] and [Blood Ignition] needed much lower requirements of focus and concentration than [Destruction Force] and [Lightning of Destruction], but Hei Yinghao was not in the right condition to wield any of them right now.
While Hei Yinghao still felt really dizzy and staggering, Li Jing swiftly jumped forward and took the small bell tied on Hei Yinghao''s waist.
After Li Jing took the small bell away from Hei Yinghao, Hei Yinghao''s body gradually turned transparent before hepletely vanished.
He had been kicked out from the dense jungle and went back to the sparring room where Instructor Mei Lan still watched their battle from a huge water-screen.
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Hei Yinghao, who was still looking around in confusion, and said: "It seems you learn almost nothing from that drunkard. From now on, you do not need to attend that drunkard lesson anymore. I will make sure to train you ''very diligently'' so you will be a new fox in one week!"
Instructor Mei Lan said leisurely with a gentle smile on her face, but Hei Yinghao''s body shuddered violently in fear.
He immediately knew that Instructor Mei Lan would certainly train him to the point of almost death from now on.
Hei Yinghao really wanted to cry, but no tear came out, just like how he wanted to refuse the intense training so badly but did not dare to say it.
¡..
Back to the dense jungle where Tang Li Xue had watched the battle from a few tens of meters away¡
Tang Li Xue was really dumbfounded by the result of the battle.
She thought the Silly Fox, Hei Yinghao, would easily win since both Li Jing and Gan Aomiao were still at [Umon] grade foxes after all.
Who knew that Li Jing and Gan Aomiao''s perfectbination of divine abilities could render all of Hei Yinghao''s divine abilities useless like that?!
In fact, Li Jing and Gan Aomiao would never be able to really defeat Hei Yinghao even with their perfectbination of divine abilities.
Hei Yinghao has a great resilient body. He could certainly get used to their assault''s pattern soon, then began his counterattackter.
Unfortunately, this game did not need anyone to beat the others in battle. They only need to take the bell from the others!
After Li Jing took Hei Yinghao''s bell, the bell automatically tied onto her waist, so she currently had two little bells tied on her waist.
''Looks like this is the time for me to make my move!'' Tang Li Xue thought when she saw Li Jing and Gan Aomiao started to walk away from here.
However, Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] detected someone wasing fast this way!
''Bingbing?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise in her mind.
It seems Bing Yi was attracted by the loud sound of the battle and came here to join the fun.
There were two little bells hung on Bing Yi''s waist too!
Bing Yi must have already defeated Huang Hao and took the little bell from him beforeing here!
Tang Li Xue felt really unhappy right now.
How could she be the only one with one bell on her waist right now?!
She even forgot that Gan Aomiao also only had one little bell on her waist just like her.
But Tang Li Xue decided to still not make any moves from the ce she stood and waited for a better opportunity.
It did not take long for Bing Yi to meet with Li Jing and Gan Aomiao.
The three of them started to fight without saying anything!
Bing Yi did not hesitate to disy her new skill! The one she learned from Elemental Compression''s lesson!
[Frozen Tundra]!
The dense jungle around them was immediately covered by a thickyer of white frost!
This was the upgraded version of her [Freezing Field].
Bing Yi''s divine ability did not change. Her divine ability was still [Freezing Field], but shepressed the wide range of [Freezing Field] into a smaller radius to increase the freezing power by manifold.
Different from before when she fought against Mogui and did a random attempt topress her [Freezing Field], which in return made most of her freezing power scattered into waste. This [Frozen Tundra] waspressed under the proper guidance of Instructor Mei Lan!
Of course, this [Frozen Tundra] used much more Vitality Energy and intense concentration to maintain it than the usual [Freezing Field], but it was definitely worth it since it increased her ice power by manifold too!
The dense jungle around them was immediately covered by a thickyer of white frost!
Li Jing and Gan Aomiao were frozen into ice statues before they could do anything by Bing Yi''s [Frozen Tundra]!
''Oh, crap!'' Tang Li Xue groaned when the extremely cold blizzard sted toward her.
Even Tang Li Xue, who hid a few tens of meters away from Li Jing and Gan Aomiao, got attacked by the freezing st from Bing Yi''s [Frozen Tundra].
Although she was quite far enough away from Bing Yi, and she did not get frozen, but her [Ethereal Form] was still automatically canceled when she received the minuscule amount of damage from the cold st.
Bing Yi nced at Tang Li Xue for a moment and yfully threw a mischievous smile at her.
Tang Li Xueughed back at Bing Yi while scratching her head in embarrassment.
All elemental Area of Effect (AoE) skills were really the bane of her [Ethereal Form].
Bing Yi waved her hand toward the Li Jing and Gan Aomiao and used another one of her new skills.
[Frost Burst]!
The extremely cold wind started to swirl violently around the frozen Li Jing and Gan Aomiao!
CCCLLLAAAAAAAAANNKKK~!!!
The violent swirling cold wind froze Li Jing and Gan Aomiao further from the two ice statues into two pirs of ice!
Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡
The two pirs of ice cracked and shattered into tiny pieces in a few moments.
Li Jing and Gan Aomiao fell unconscious because of hypothermia, and both of them fell onto the white snowy ground after the ice around them shattered.
In fact, if Bing Yi did not deliberately decrease her freezing power output, Li Jing and Gan Aomiao''s bodies would already turn into ice and be shattered too, just like those two pirs of ice.
Bing Yi took leisurely took the small bell on their waist.
Li Jing and Gan Aomiao''s bodies gradually turned transparent too, and they got kicked out of the dense jungle back into the sparring room like Hei Yinghao.
With this, Bing Yi has five small bells tied on her waist, while Tang Li Xue only has one small bell.
Bing Yi and Tang Li Xue were facing each other right now.
Both of them put solemn expression as if they were ready to fight with each other, but¡
"Little Xue~~!" Bing Yi ran toward Tang Li Xue and hugged her.
"Look, Little Xue! I have five bells now! We already won!" Bing Yi smugly said to Tang Li Xue while proudly showing the five little bells tied on her waist.
Tang Li Xue giggled at Bing Yi''s behavior and replied with a rxed tone: "Bing Bing, You know¡ We should be fighting with each other right now, right? Why are you running to me like this?!"
Bing Yi and Tang Li Xue were always close like two sisters, while Bing Yi always treated Hei Yinghao like the third-wheel nuisance.
Of course, Tang Li Xue always tried to treat Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao the same way, but she still felt closer to Bing Yi because they have the same gender and in the same team too.
"Who cares about that?! Little Xue, if you want it, I can give them all to you now!" Bing Yi said while kept giggling, but her mischievous hands kept touching Tang Li Xue''s breast and waist.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched a bit as she pushed Bing Yi''s hands.
''This girl is really like to touch me here and there¡'' Tang Li Xue helplessly thought.
But Instructor Mei Lan''s voice echoed through the dense jungle before Bing Yi could deliberately give her bells to Tang Li Xue: "Cough¡ Cough¡ I will double your training schedule from now on if you two do not fight now! I will also double the training schedule of the one who loses between you two from now on!"
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi immediately jumped backward and distanced themselves.
"Little Xue¡ I am really sorry! But¡ But I have something to do, so I cannot die yet! Please forgive your Big Sister!" Bing Yi said to Tang Li Xue with a miserable tone as if she was forced by Instructor Mei Lan to kill Tang Li Xue.
But doubled their intense training schedule might be really no different from killing them¡
Chapter 290: Water VS Ice!
Chapter 290: Water VS Ice!
Tang Li Xue''s mood grew solemn.
Amongst the three of them, Bing Yi''s progress was the most apparent.
After undergoing intense training in the Elemental Compression from Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi''s ice power has transformed and improved by leap and bound.
Even if Hei Yinghao fought all out against the current Bing Yi, he would surely face a lot of trouble to defeat her.
Of course, if we counted Yaya too, the improvement Yaya got after she learned the Elemental Compression from Instructor Mei Lan''s mother was actually much richer than Bing Yi because she managed to learn a new divine ability.
Instructor Mei Lan also ordered Tang Li Xue to undergo intense training in the Elemental Compression with Bing Yi to increase her power and control over me of Pride while Tang Li Xue did not dare to use her me of Pride in the Myriad Foxes Academy.
Currently, Tang Li Xue did not have any way to fight against Bing Yi since she did not want to use her me of Pride in the Myriad Foxes Academy.
The cooldown of her [Twin Moons] divine ability was still four to five more days.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue could not use the divine ability copied by her perfect copy since her perfect copy was still in dead condition until the cooldown of her [Twin Moons] finished, so her [Mirror of the Moon] could only copy one divine ability for now.
While the effect of [Eclipse of Desire] was too horrible, and Tang Li Xue did not dare to use it at Bing Yi.
Tang Li Xue had not even sure if that skull-masked man managed to break out from [Eclipse of Desire]''s effect until now.
In only a few seconds, many different thoughts had swirled in Tang Li Xue''s mind, but she still had not found any way to fight against Bing Yi''s horrible freezing power.
"Little Xue... My stamina is getting depleted quickly... I cannot maintain this [Frozen Tundra] for too long. Can we start now?" Bing Yi asked for Tang Li Xue''s confirmation.
"Wait, wait, wait a minute! I am not ready yet! Let me think for a bit! Just a few couple more seconds!" Tang Li Xue replied still with a solemn expression.
"All... All right, just a few more seconds, okay?" Bing Yi asked again with a bit anxious tone.
The expression of Instructor Mei Lan turned weird, and even her red lips twitched violently in aggravation when she watched at the interaction between Bing Yi and Tang Li Xue from the water-screen.
She really wanted to knock hard on their head when they started to act like this.
But she could not help it since Tang Li Xue was the favorite darling of both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
In fact, if Hei Yinghao was the one facing Tang Li Xue right now. He would surely give up instantly and threw all of his bells at Tang Li Xue without any hesitation regardless of the consequence, like doubling the training schedule.
However, if the fight was between Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao instead of Tang Li Xue, they would never yield to each other and fight all out to gain Tang Li Xue''s attention.
The winner would surely be mocking the loser in front of Tang Li Xue for more than a month, just like when Hei Yinghao had won against Bing Yi after they evolved into [Rare] grade before.
When everyone waited for Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi to fight against each other, Tang Li Xue suddenly have thought, why not use this chance to test her new power!
Her partial merge with her martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent]!
That pair of menacing golden gauntlets!
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering brightly in excitement like a pair of blue stars. The more she thought it, the more she liked her idea.
Of course, Tang Li Xue would not let Bing Yi see her summoning out her martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent], so she activated her [Ethereal Form] and vanished from Bing Yi''s sight in an instant.
Bing Yi had been already on standby since a few minutes ago, so she immediately threw an attack toward Tang Li Xue''s direction.
[Frost Burst]!
Bing Yi waved her hand, and an extremely cold wind started to swirl violently around the ce where Tang Li Xue stood up before.
CCCLLLAAAAAAAAANNKKK~!!!
The violent swirling cold wind created arge pir of ice, but Tang Li Xue has already swiftly retreated from there.
RRROOOOOOOAAAAAARRR~~!!!
The loud dragon roar echoed through the entire dense forest, frightened all the beasts living inside that dense forest.
Tang Li Xue''s invisible [Golden Winged Serpent] soared onto the sky above Tang Li Xue in excitement.
After the [Golden Winged Serpent] flew in a circle once, it descended from the sky toward Tang Li Xue and turned into dazzling golden light, but no one could see it except Tang Li Xue herself because both [Golden Winged Serpent] and Tang Li Xue were still in [Ethereal Form].
The dazzling golden light wrapped Tang Li Xue''s arms in her [Ethereal Form] and solidified into a pair of golden gauntlets.
Bing Yi still failed to find Tang Li Xue''s location, so she expanded the radius of her [Frozen Tundra] bit by bit to force Tang Li Xue out from her [Ethereal Form]!
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao were already fought or sparred together so many times in these few months, so of course, they already knew each other skills and divine abilities along with its w, just like Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] would get canceled if she got hit by any elemental attack!
It only took less than a second for the invisible Tang Li Xue to get hit by the cold freezing aura from Bing Yi''s [Frozen Tundra], and her [Ethereal Form] also got canceled.
After Tang Li Xue appeared once again in Bing Yi''s vision, Bing Yi immediately bombarded Tang Li Xue with her ice skillsbo, just like what she did to Li Jing and Gan Aomiao!
[Frozen st]!
Bing Yi waved her hand and sted apressed chilling aura onto Tang Li Xue''s direction mercilessly!
Tang Li Xue did not panic at all.
On the contrary, she was smiling excitedly like a child who wanted to try her new toy.
Tang Li Xue also waved one of her hands which was wrapped by the golden gauntlet.
[Summon Water]!
[Water Control]!
This [Summon Water] was the simplified form of [Summon Rain].
At first, Tang Li Xue did not know what the true function of this ability, but she finally knew it now!
It was the skill to revert the water elemental in the other form like solid state (ice and snow) or gaseous state (water vapor including fog and clouds) back into a liquid state (water).
The surrounding snow and ice followed Tang Li Xue''smand and turned back into the water, shielding her from Bing Yi''s attack!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAANGG~~!!!
Bing Yi''s [Frozen st] instantly froze the water that shielded Tang Li Xue, but it was only for a moment. When Tang Li Xue used her [Summon Water], the frozen water turned back to a liquid and flowed ording to Tang Li Xue''s control!
Bing Yi waspletely dumbfounded by Tang Li Xue''s new ability.
"This¡ Little Xue, you are really full of surprises! So this is your new power?!" Bing Yi asked in disbelief.
"Hehehe, impressive, right?!" Tang Li Xue smugly asked back.
Even Instructor Mei Lan, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others who watched their battle from the water-screen in the sparring room were stunned silly by Tang Li Xue''s new ability.
"That should be¡" Instructor Mei Lan murmured while frowned and thought for a while.
Then her eyes brightened when she remembered the power of Tang Li Xue''s martial soul when she evolved into [Rare] grade before.
Instructor Mei Lan immediately realized what was going on and where Tang Li Xue''s golden gauntlets came from.
"Partial merge? What an impressive kid!" Instructor Mei Lan murmured again in astonishment. She kept staring at Tang Li Xue and smiling gently as always.
"Okay, Little Xue¡ you are really amazing! I will go all out from now on! Please be careful!" Bing Yi giggled and increased her freezing power output without holding back.
The temperature around them drastically dropped even more, and the fierce blizzard started to blow.
Tang Li Xue chuckled softly, and she immediately used her other ability, [Summon Rain]!
BBBWWWOOOOOOOSSSHHH~~!!!
Heavy rain started to pour down around Tang Li Xue!
The weather around Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi looked extremely bizarre right now!
Half of the area has a fierce blizzard, while the other half has heavy rain!
Tang Li Xue slowly raised both of her arms which were covered by the pair of golden gauntlets, and each droplet of water began to float around her.
Tang Li Xue looked like the Water Goddess herself right now!
Arge amount of water assembled more and more!
''Not yet!'' Tang Li Xue whispered in her mind.
[Blood Ignition] ¨C Quadruple Amplification!
Tang Li Xue even used the divine ability she copied from Hei Yinghao to temporarily amplified her strength!
[Tidal Wave]!
Tang Li Xue used the unique skill that almost washed Mogui and his team away in one sweep to Bing Yi!
Chapter 291: Got Scolded!
Chapter 291: Got Scolded!
Bing Yi was in a huge dilemma right now.
She could use her [Frozen st] to freeze all the water before it touched her, but Tang Li Xue could use her [Summon Water] to turn back the frozen water back into liquid!
Moreover, Tang Li Xue''s [Tidal Wave] was a unique skill with the wide Area of Effect (AoE), so Bing Yi could not dodge it at all!
Bing Yi gritted her teeth and decided to use her [Frozen st] once more to freeze the violent current of a tidal wave in front of her!
BWOOOOSSSHH~!!!
Bing Yi waved her slender hand, and thepressed freezing air st out to meet face to face with the violent current of a tidal wave!
Crack... Crack... Crack...
The violent tidal wave turnedpletely into solid ice when it met with thepressed freezing air st!
However, Tang Li Xue also waved her hand which was covered by the golden gauntlet, and used her [Summon Water] skill to turn back the frozen tidal wave into the water!
SPLAAAAASHHH~!!!
The huge amount of water engulfed Bing Yi in an instant!
Although, Bing Yi''s [Frozen st] managed to kill the violent momentum of the tidal wave, but the huge amount of water was enough to drown her!
Instructor Mei Lan who watched from the big water-screen in the sparring room closed her eyes and shook her head in disappointment while murmured: "It is over. Bingbing has lost."
Even Tang Li Xue also thought so and grinning happily.
Tang Li Xue has the power to control water, so when Bing Yi submerged in a huge amount of water from the tidal wave, her fate has also been sealed.
It could be said Bing Yi''s fate was on Tang Li Xue''s palm right now.
"Hehehe... Hmm... Bingbing, what should I do to you now?" Tang Li Xue giggled with a mischievous smile.
Bing Yi felt suffocated, but her mind was still clear, then she started to struggle out from Tang Li Xue''s control right now.
[Frost Burst]!
The extremely cold aura started to swirl violently around Bing Yi stirred the water around her body!
The violent swirl of water started to freeze and created arge pir of ice!
Therge pir of ice became Bing Yi''s foothold and brought Bing Yi out from the water, but¡
"Sigh¡ It is only a futile effort." Tang Li Xue shook her head and used her [Summon Water] skill again to turn therge pir of ice back into the water.
Just with only one simple move, Tang Li Xue made Bing Yi plunged again into the sea of water.
SPLAAAAASHHH~!!!
"Naughty Bingbing¡ I seem I must do something to make you more obedient." Tang Li Xue giggled again and murmured with a mischievous tone.
Tang Li Xue started to twirl her index finger and the sea of water began to churning.
The sea of water was actually spinning faster and faster!
"Hmm¡ This move is not bad! Let''s call this [Water Tornado] maybe?" Tang Li Xue pondered while kept twirling her index finger.
BWOOOOSSSHH~!!!
The spinning sea of water already turned into a terrifying giant water tornado while the poor Bing Yi was trapped in the middle of it!
The poor Bing Yi kept spinning along with the water tornado.
The cultivator or beast with high cultivation could hold their breath underwater for several tens of minutes without any problem but being caught in a state of constantly getting shaking, spinning, tossing, and turning violently like this was a different story.
Bing Yi already felt dizzy and nauseous.
Her consciousness started to fade away, and she finally fell unconscious.
Tang Li Xue became a bit panicked when she saw Bing Yi fell unconscious. She regretted immediately what she had done.
Tang Li Xue quickly canceled the [Water Tornado] and took Bing Yi out of the water.
She sighed in relief after making sure that Bing Yi was all right and only passed out.
Tang Li Xue took the five small bells tied on Bing Yi''s waist and managed to be the winner of this hide-and-seek game.
Bing Yi was immediately sent out from the dense jungle after Tang Li Xue took all of her bells.
Tang Li Xue was also sent back into the sparring room a few seconds after Bing Yi.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at them one by one before her gaze fell onto the pair of golden gauntlets wore by Tang Li Xue.
"Not bad, Little Xue! Your improvement really did not disappoint me. It seems you even have the new ability now." Instructor Mei Lan said while chuckled at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue felt embarrassed when Instructor Mei Lan stared at her, so she unsummoned her martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent], and the pair of golden gauntlets on her arms also vanished into thin air.
"On the contrary, Bingbing¡ you are quite disappointing." Instructor Mei Lan said as she nced at Bing Yi who already regained her consciousness back.
Bing Yi lowered her head in guilty and replied softly: "I¡ I am sorry, Instructor Lan."
"Do you know why you are lost to Little Xue?" Instructor Mei Lan asked with a cold expression.
Bing Yi thought for a moment before answered: "Maybe because¡ Little Xue is stronger than me?"
"Wrong! She is not that strong. Her control over her new ability is also very crude and messy. It is clear that she has only acquired her new ability very recently and only used it once or twice. If she used high pressured water to attack you, your situation would be far worse!" Instructor Mei Lan did not hold back and said her opinion.
Tang Li Xue became dumbfounded and thought: ''Wha¡ wait a minute¡ Why it seems like Instructor Lan is scolding me instead?!''
"Little Xue had just acquired her new ability, so it ispletely eptable. But you¡ sigh¡ You are hesitating, right? You even fail to believe the power you have tempered all this time. If you continue like this, all of your intense training will just go to waste." Instructor Mei Lan scolded Bing Yi with a tone filled with disappointment.
Bing Yi lowered her head even more in guilty and murmured softly: "I¡ I am sorry, Instructor Lan. I will make sure to fix it."
Instructor Mei Lan stared again at them one by one and told to all of them: "This applies to all of you too. When you are facing the others, no matter how powerful they look, no matter if their elemental is your weakness¡ If you lose your belief in your own strength, your chance of winning is already decreased by 50%."
"Bingbing''s fight is a clear example of that. She started to hesitate midway and lost the confidence of her own power. After hesitating, she tried to think of a way to defeat her enemy with her wits."
"Big mistake! Imagine if she went all out in using her freezing power without giving Little Xue any chance to use her new skill?" Instructor Mei Lan asked, then paused for a bit while looked at their expression.
"I can use my skill to turn Bingbing''s ice into water¡ So it means I can only use my skill after she used her skill to freeze my water. If she attacks me rapidly without leaving me any chance to use my skill, then¡ I will certainly lose." Tang Li Xue pondered carefully while unconsciously murmured.
Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes brightened as she nodded to Tang Li Xue and said: "Smart! If Bingbing trusts her power and keep pushing you with her freezing divine ability. You will certainly lose because she has better control over her power. Moreover, she has the elementalpression ability! In short, she already held the advantage in terms of speed, control, and power. Unfortunately, she was flustered when she saw your new ability."
"You must trust your own ability, but it does not mean you can be overconfident and charge blindly at your enemies without thinking! The battle of Silly Fox is the concrete proof of this!" Instructor Mei Lan said while smacked the back of Hei Yinghao''s head really hard.
"Instructor Lan¡ you are being partial here. You never hit Ice Girl, but why do you always hit my head every time I make a mistake?!" Hei Yinghao said with a wronged expression as he rubbed his painful back head.
Instructor Mei Lan red at Hei Yinghao and replied with an angry tone: "Because you deserve it! You already know that there are two of them, but why do you still attack them frontally without any n?! Moreover, you are still trying to attack them instead of retreating after you failed in your first attack?! Are you an idiot or what?! No... just how stupid you are?!"
Gan Aomiao and Li Jingughed at Hei Yinghao, but they immediately fell silent and lowered their head when Instructor Mei Lan stared at them too.
"You two still dare tough at him?! You two are not that different from him, so you have no right tough at him! Why do you two also trying to face Bingbing head-on? You already know that Bingbing held an absolute advantage over her range! Bingbing range of attack is almost twice farther than you two, but you two still try to face her head-on instead of trying to ambush her from behind! Very stupid!" Instructor Mei Lan reprimanded them harshly too.
Everyone got scolded by Instructor Mei Lan one by one except Tang Li Xue and Huang Hao.
Instructor Mei Lan could not scold Tang Li Xue because it was the first time Tang Li Xue used her new ability, so she only gave some advice to Tang Li Xue to improve her new ability more.
As for Huang Hao, Instructor Mei Lan knew how futile it was to scold him, so she only let him do what he wants.
The user of [Shadow Clones] should be able to grasp many strategies to prevail in battle, but Huang Hao was clearly toozy to read any book or to learn anything, so Instructor Mei Lan gave uppletely on educating this guy.
After the scolding session, Instructor Mei Lan dragged them all toward her courtyard behind the education building, and all of them started their intense hell training lesson there.
Chapter 292: Tang Li Xues Resolve!
Chapter 292: Tang Li Xue''s Resolve!
The sky already turned dark when Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, Li Jing, and the others finished their intense hell training lesson.
All of them dragged their extremely exhausted body back into the Residential Building except for Tang Li Xue.
Currently, Tang Li Xue sat in Instructor Mei Lan''s living room with Yaya.
Yaya already finished her lesson with Instructor Mei Lan''s mother earlier than Tang Li Xue and already came back to meet Tang Li Xue in Instructor Mei Lan''s courtyard an hour before.
Instructor Mei Lan sat elegantly with her legs crossed in front of Tang Li Xue and Yaya.
She sipped on the tea on her cup and said to Tang Li Xue: "I still have something important to do, so you better speak now! What do you want to ask?"
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a moment before steeled her will and asked: "Instructor Lan, do you know some treasures that can change someone''s aurapletely and hid some of their features like our foxtail or fox ears?"
Instructor Mei Lan raised her eyebrow and stared intensely at Tang Li Xue for a few moments.
"You are¡ nning to cover up something, aren''t you? Whatever you want to do, I must warn you. Never... Ever... Create more trouble in Myriad Foxes Academy!" Instructor Mei Lan said with a stern tone as she squinted her eyes in suspicion.
Cold sweat poured out from Tang Li Xue''s forehead, and she stuttered: "Wha¡ What are you talking about Instructor Lan?! Of¡ Of course, I will never create trouble in Myriad Foxes Academy! I just want to find some ways to cover my foxtail and fox ear when we travel in the human worldter."
Instructor Mei Lan sneered at Tang Li Xue and said with a leisure tone: "To cover your foxtail and fox ear? What ame excuse¡ What about that troublemaking egg you take from the Auction House before? I bet it already hatched, right? Let me guess¡ That egg hatched when you did your mission in the human world before, and now you are searching for some ways to cover all of its traits so no one could recognize its evil aura and appearance. Am I right?"
''Damn it! How could you know all of it?! Instructor Lan, are you sure that you are not a psychic or something?!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she felt as if she had been pped by Instructor Mei Lan, but she still gritted her teeth.
"Wha¡ What are you talking about¡" Tang Li Xue''s mind was already short-circuited, and she almost blurted out the exact same words that she said previously to Instructor Lan before, but Instructor Mei Lan immediately interrupted her.
"Oh, so you are still trying to deny it?! I bet that troublemaking egg must have created a hugemotion when it hatched. What if I ordered a few students to search for some clues at the Quanhai City to¡" Instructor Mei Lan said while sneered at Tang Li Xue.
"AAAHHH~!!! Stop it! I am really sorry for lying to you, My Kind-hearted Instructor Lan! It is my fault! What you are saying is right?! So please help your student in distress just this once! I... I do not want to ask any more help from that Miser Teacher Wei!" Tang Li Xue shouted and bowed her head until it bumped hard onto the tea table in front of her.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at Tang Li Xue and said: "You are really not good at lying. Why should you bother to tell me a meaningless lie?! Just tell me the truth from the very beginning. Call out your pet now. I want to see it."
"Instructor Lan¡" Tang Li Xue said with a coquettish tone to Instructor Mei Lan.
"Do not waste any more time and call out your pet now! I am not the Sissy Wei. It is futile for you to act flirtatious like that in front of me!" Instructor Mei Lan said with a stern tone.
Tang Li Xue bit her lips lightly in hesitation.
She was really afraid if Instructor Mei Lan recognized Little Loki''s species.
To be exact, Tang Li Xue was very afraid if Instructor Mei Lan decided to kill Little Loki on the spot after she identified Little Loki''s species as one of the Four Evil Fiend Beasts!
"Instructor Lan¡ I¡ am sorry¡ I cannot follow your order now! But you can rest assured! I promise to take care of it really well and would never let it do something bad anymore! So¡ please! Trust me!" Tang Li Xue vowed with a serious expression while staring straight into Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes.
Instructor Mei Lan was also staring at Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes to judge everything from Tang Li Xue''s expression.
With Instructor Mei Lan''s intelligence, how could she did not detect something was not right from Tang Li Xue''s resolute words?!
At first, Instructor Mei Lan wanted to check the species of the beast hatched from that sinister egg¡
If the creature was something evil or sinister, then she would probably forcefully confiscate it from Tang Li Xue and slew it somewhere else where no one sees it, since Instructor Mei Lan was afraid that the sinister creature would hurt or even kill Tang Li Xue.
But from Tang Li Xue''s attitude, Instructor Mei Lan concluded that Tang Li Xue already knew how sinister that creature was and still decided to raise it!
Moreover, it seems the creature was not that simple! Not only evil or sinister¡ but something more than that¡ something cmitous even!
There were many things she wanted to ask¡
There were many things she doubted¡
But Instructor Mei Lan decided not to ask or say anything except for one: "Are you really sure that you can take full responsibility for raising it? What will you do if that creature did something crazy to ruin our Myriad Foxes Academy?!"
"YES, I will take full responsibility for it! If it dares to do something like that¡ I will be surely the first person to y it!" Tang Li Xue replied without any hesitation.
"Good! I hope you will always remember what you are saying now." Instructor Mei Lan said as a gentle satisfied smile bloomed on her beautiful face.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief¡
''Thankfully, Instructor Lan still underestimated Little Loki''s species. I wonder what she would do if she knew Little Loki would not only have the strength to ruin the Myriad Foxes Academy but all the countless worlds and realms, including Divine World¡'' Tang Li Xue started to shudder violently. She did not dare to think about the consequences anymore.
Instructor Mei Lan pondered for a few moments and shook her head: "I do not have any treasure with the effect to conceal the creature''s trait¡"
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes and sighed in great disappointment.
She already braved herself to ask Instructor Mei Lan about it, but her effort was ended up in vain.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled at Tang Li Xue''s despaired look and continued: "But I do know the ce where you can buy the treasure with that effect."
Tang Li Xue''s despaired expression immediately reced by an excited expression and she asked again: "Really? I¡ I can buy it?! Where?! Where can I buy it?! In the human world?!"
"Calm down¡ It is still in the Myriad Foxes Academy, not far from here. You can buy it from Auction House." Instructor Mei Lan replied with a leisure tone while sipped the tea in her cup again.
Tang Li Xue''s cheerful expression turned dark again and she asked: "EEhhhh¡ Auction House? Really? But¡ I doubt they will sell treasure like that¡ And the price would be also¡"
Instructor Mei Lanughed and exined: "It is true they will never sell the treasure with that effect because the treasure like that can be used by any fox to infiltrate human society easily. But it is different now."
"Different? What is different?" Tang Li Xue asked in puzzlement.
"Annual Auction." Instructor Mei Lan replied shortly.
Tang Li Xue still put the puzzled expression. She waspletely oblivious to the difference between the Annual Auction and the normal auction.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and exined again: "Do you know what your egg was doing on the Auction House beforepletely ruining their image? They are starting to lose the trust of their customers. The merchant without the trust from their customers is destined to face bankruptcy sooner orter!"
"That is why they are nning to organize the grandest Annual Auction in three days from now to restore their prestige. They would certainly auction many precious treasures, priceless herbs, miracle fruits, and so on. I am really sure they will sell the item you needter." Instructor Mei Lan said the tone full of confidence.
Tang Li Xue nodded absentmindedly while thinking: ''Sigh¡ I hope the price would be quite cheap or I would never be able to buy it! It seems I must work extra hard to make many talismans in these three days. I hope I can get enough credits by selling all the talismans onto Teacher Weiter."
Tang Li Xue bid her farewell to Instructor Mei Lan and brought Yaya back with her to the Residential Building.
After both of them eating to their heart content in the luxurious restaurant on the first floor, they came back to their room together.
Yaya fell asleep almost in an instant when shey down on the soft bed in the bedroom, while Tang Li Xue rolled her long sleeve and took out her golden [Inscription Pen] from her system''s item inventory.
Tang Li Xue decided to not take any sleep in these three days and pulled all-nighters to inscribe as many talismans as she could.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya''s schedule for the next three days was still the same, and without knowing, the three days had passed.
Instructor Mei Lan dismissed her ss earlier today and brought all of her students to take a look at the Grand Annual Auction in Auction House.
Chapter 293: Grandest Annual Auction!
Chapter 293: Grandest Annual Auction!
Even though it was still in the middle of the day right now while the Annual Auction would be held at dawn around 17.00-18.00 o''clock but all the streets heading to Auction House were already weaved with streams of people... err... I mean foxes in their human form and extremely bustling.
The sounds of discussion about the auction that would be held in the Auction House today could be heard everywhere.
When looking down at Myriad Foxes Academy from the sky, one would be able to see that the streets that lead to everywhere and were like spider webs in Myriad Foxes Academy were filled with mighty streams and oceans of foxes, and all of them were heading towards the Auction House.
Amidst them were high-ranking officers that sat on treasured carriages, fox girls that had rare beast pets, and young students from the Education Department that moved in groups of three to five, causing it to be an unprecedentedly grand scene.
The entrance of the Auction House that was 500 meters wide was already so tightly packed that it was impossible to go through when Instructor Mei Lan and the others arrived, and the number of people that hade to participate in the auction today was obvious.
Tang Li Xue noticed that amongst the foxes that hade to participate in the auction, they were separated into three types. Most of them paid 3,000 credits to participate, but many of them also used the ordinary silver invitation.
They all entered through the front without any attendant receiving them.
Thest type was a fine gold VIP invitation that only a handful of people possessed, and the arrival of these people was weed by special attendants.
Moreover, they walked in through a specially opened VIP pathway. They did not need to line up at the main entrance of Auction House like the others.
This was probably the difference between ordinary people... err... foxes and VIPs.
During the process of lining up to enter the Auction House, most of the foxes in their human form were discussing animatedly, and all of them held extremely great anticipation and curiosity towards the auction that was about to begin.
"I do not know if it is true or not, but some staff from the Auction House said they would sell Five Elemental Fruits today."
"What?! Five Elemental Fruits?! Are you joking?! They really nned to sell that?! Tsk, Tsk, Tsk... I must buy that fruit today!"
"That is only Five Elemental Fruit... I heard they will even sell Bloodline Purifying Pill and Evolution Breakthrough Pill. The Auction House is really going all out this time."
" Bloodline Purifying Pill and Evolution Breakthrough Pill~!!! No way, right?!"
"T... They must be crazy for being willing to sell those out!"
"You all don''t know about this? During the auction this time, a huge number of rare and precious treasures will be appearing, and only those with invitations possess the qualifications to bid, understand?"
''Only those with invitations have the qualifications to bid? Then what about those who pay 3,000 credits?'' Tang Li Xue thought in puzzlement.
Tang Li Xue decided to ask that to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled at Tang Li Xue and exined patiently to her: "Those who pay 3,000 credits can only witnessing as spectators, and they do not have the qualifications to participate in the auction."
"They pay 3,000 credits to only witness as spectators?! They are really stupid, right?! I prefer to use those credits to buy my lunch!" Huang Hao said with a disdainful tone.
Almost all the foxes here have a pair of sharp ears, so they could hear Huang Hao''s disdainful words very clearly.
All of them red at Huang Hao in anger as if they wanted to kill him on the spot.
Their sharp murderous intent made Huang Hao shuddered in fear. He immediately hid behind Instructor Mei Lan and lowered his head timidly.
Instructor Mei Lan pped the back of Huang Hao''s head and told him to apologize to everyone here.
Huang Hao obediently followed Instructor Mei Lan''s words and reluctantly bowed his head while apologizing to everyone.
"Well, well, well... what an insolent student do you have here?! Mei Lan, you should stop pampering your students and break one or two of their limbs every time they make a mistake so they will learn to not repeat their mistake anymore."
A feminine yet flirtatious sound came from behind them.
Huang Hao almost fainted when he heard the cruel words said by that feminine yet flirtatious sound.
"Humph! Zhiruo, you should mind your own business! Just teach your own students so they will not lose to my students too badly next time!" Instructor Mei Lan replied without turning her head.
With her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue already knew who said those words even without turning her head. It was the red-haired sexy Instructor, Zhiruo.
Red-haired Instructor Zhiruo also came with all of her students to the Auction House.
"Aw~~! How could you are acting so cold to me, Mei Lan?! Are you already forgetting how we spend a night together in the middle of the forest?" Zhiruo spoke to Instructor Mei Lan with an aggravated tonebined with her flirtatious voice was enough to make anyone''s imagination run wild.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes andzily replied: "Do you mean the night we spend to supervise the second trial of entry test to Myriad Foxes Academy before?!"
"Ai~~! Mei Lan, you are not fun at all!" Zhiruo puckered her cherry red lips and pouted, but she still asked many questions to Instructor Mei Lan. Although Instructor Mei Lan onlyzily answered a few of her questions while ignored her teasing.
While Instructor Mei Lan and Instructor Zhiruo were talking to each other, one of Instructor Zhiruo''s students, the petite loli orange-haired girl, approached Tang Li Xue and greeted her.
"Hiya! Beautiful silver-haired sister!" The petite orange-haired girl said cheerfully to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue reflexively took a few steps back from the petite orange-haired girl.
Tang Li Xue was still traumatized and instinctual afraid of this petite orange-haired girl who even dared to self-destructed herself in the sparring match before.
However, the ck short-haired girl swiftly hugged Tang Li Xue from behind when Tang Li Xue took a few steps backward. She even whispered softly onto Tang Li Xue''s sensitive fox ear: "Where are you going to run, my lovely cute silver fox?"
When Tang Li Xue felt the warm breath of the ck short-haired girl on her fox ear, Tang Li Xue''s face behind her fox mask was blushed a bit since their pose right now was quite intimate.
Tang Li Xue wanted to push the ck short-haired girl away angrily, but someone fuse already blew up before she could do that.
FWOOOOOOOOSSHH~!!!
The temperature around them drastically dropped in an instant, and the ground below their feet was covered by a thinyer of frost.
Bing Yi angrily fired tens of sharp [Ice Bolts] at the ck short-haired girl to separate her from Tang Li Xue, but the ck short-haired girl easily neutralized Bing Yi''s attack with her [cial Barrier].
The swift Hei Yinghao activated his [Blood Burst] and already arrived beside the ck short-haired girl in an instant.
Hei Yinghao impolitely kicked the ck short-haired girl away from Tang Li Xue without any hesitation.
Both Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi stood at the left and right sides of Tang Li Xue while ring vigntly at Instructor Zhiruo''s students as if they were afraid that Tang Li Xue would be taken away from them.
"That is hurt! Handsome guy, can''t you treat a woman gentler?" The ck short-haired girl said to Hei Yinghao with a tone filled with annoyance.
"In my eyes, only Little Xue is a woman. The rest of you including that Ice Girl over there are no more than foxes without male reproductive organs." Hei Yinghao answered mercilessly with a cold tone.
Tang Li Xue: "¡.."
Bing Yi: "¡.."
The others: "¡.."
Hei Yinghao''s touching words were rewarded with a heavy p on the head from Instructor Mei Lan.
While they were talking and joking with each other, all of them unknowingly arrived at the entrance of VIPs.
Both Instructor Mei Lan and Zhiruo took out the gold VIP invitation from their space pouch to walk in the auction area under the warm wee of two female attendants.
"Woah, both Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Zhiruo have gold VIP invitation! Are all teachers from the Education Department really that rich?" All of their students eximed in shock and admiration.
They immediately followed Instructor Mei Lan and Zhiruo closely from behind. There were too many people here, and they were afraid to get lost or separated from their teacher.
The auction area was extremelyrge, vast, and magnificent, and it seemed to upy an area twice bigger than the baseball stadium. Obviously, an expert that possessed great ability had opened up an enormous space here. The surrounding buildings were divided into two floors and they formed a circr shape that surrounded an enormous jade tform at the center.
The VIP rooms were on the second floor, and the VIP room Instructor Mei Lan, Instructor Zhiruo, and all of their students were in faced the jade tform directly. Their field of vision was extremely vast, allowing them to be able to see everything in their surroundings from within the room, yet the people on the outside were unable to see the situation within the VIP room.
The VIP room was notrge, yet was decorated extremely tastefully, and when one sat within it and looked down at the surroundings, it was indeed capable of allowing one to arouse the feeling of being superior and in control of everything.
Chapter 294: Treasures Ranking!
Chapter 294: Treasures Ranking!
On the table in the middle of the VIP room, there were many delicious snacks served on the te and a pot filled with warm spirit tea.
"Esteemed Guests, you can let me know if you require any service, I''ll be just outside the VIP room." The female attendant bowed as she finished speaking, and then she turned around and left.
"VIP rooms are great. There''re soft couches to sit on, delicious snacks, and even spirit tea to drink!" Tang Li Xue grinned as she sat on a coach withfort.
Yaya already flew away from Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and poured some spirit tea from the teapot into her cup and Tang Li Xue''s cup.
Instructor Zhiruo and all of her students also bid their farewell to Instructor Mei Lan and the others before they entered the other VIP room beside Instructor Mei Lan''s VIP room.
Instructor Mei Lan sat on the left side of Tang Li Xue, followed by Li Jing, Gan Aomiao, and Huang Hao. While Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were still debating intensely on who would sit on Tang Li Xue''s right side.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as always and told them: "All of you do not have an invitation, so you cannot bid in this Annual Auction. But you all can tell me if some good stuff that arouses your interest appears in the auction this time, I will bid it for you all. Of course, you all still need to pay it by yourself!"
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and pondered carefully: ''I only managed to get 100,000 credits by selling all my handmade talismans to Teacher Li Wei. Added my savings and the missionpletion reward, I only have a bit more than 200,000 credits... Sigh... Hopefully, it is enough to buy the item to conceal or disguise Little Loki''s traits.''
''I do not need anything with too marvelous effects... A treasure that can hide its sinister evil aura, ck horns, bat wings, and devil-like pointed tail will be enough.'' Tang Li Xue determined the item she wanted to buy in her mind.
They still need to wait for a few hours before the Annual Auction would begin, so Instructor Mei Lan used this chance to teach her students a few important things.
"All of you should already know that the basic form of the inscription is Rune. The string of Runes will form an Inscription, and the string of Inscriptions will form an Array."Instructor Mei Lan leisurely exined to them while they enjoyed the delicious snacks on the table.
"The Master Inscriptionist usually carved several Arrays onto the treasure. The more Arrays that treasure have, the more valuable it will be. But do you all know the treasure rank ssification from the Arrays it has? If anyone of you can answer this question, I will buy anything you want in this auction as long as the price is still under a million credits." Instructor Mei Lan giggled mischievously.
Tang Li Xue and the others werepletely dumbfounded by Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
One million credits!!!
Isn''t this the same as giving them one million credits to spend in this Annual Auction?!
Unfortunately, Instructor Mei Lan had not taught them any about these yet, so most of them still did not know the answer to her question... except the always knowledgeable Li Jing... and Tang Li Xue who had been taught by Teacher Li Wei about it!
Li Jing immediately raised her hand to answer Instructor Mei Lan''s question, but Tang Li Xue already raised her hand half a second faster than Li Jing.
"Yep, Little Xue first!" Instructor Mei Lan smiled while pointed at Tang Li Xue to signaled her to answer the question.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and said: "Any precious treasure can be ssified into three ranks ording to the number of arrays carved onto it."
"The lowest one is called Magic Treasure has one to nine Arrays. The rank above it is called Spirit Treasure has more than ten Arrays, and thest one is called Supreme Treasure has more than one hundred Arrays!" Tang Li Xue concluded her exnation.
"90% correct! Li Jing, do you have a better answer than Little Xue?"?Instructor Mei Lan nced at Li Jing and asked.
Li Jing puckered her red lips and pouted, but she still shook her head.
"All right, Little Xue¡ You can bid on any item you liketer, but no more than one million credits. You must use your own credits if you want to buy something more pricy than that. Is that clear?" Instructor Mei Lan warned sternly.
"I understand. Thank you very much, Instructor Lan!" Tang Li Xue happily nodded her head like a woodpecker.
Tang Li Xue knew in her heart that Instructor Mei Lan''s reason for doing this was to help her buy the item to conceal Little Loki''s traits since she already asked Instructor Mei Lan about it three days ago.
Tang Li Xue felt really touched but also really embarrassed because Instructor Mei Lan already helped her too many times.
Tang Li Xue silently carved Instructor Mei Lan''s kindness inside her heart and swore to reciprocate it by many times someday in the future.
"Actually, above Supreme Treasure rank, there is still Heavenly Treasure rank." Instructor Mei Lan said with a mysterious smile on her beautiful face.
"Eh? There is the Heavenly Treasure rank above the Supreme Treasure rank? Why do I never hear it from Teacher Wei before?" Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes and asked curiously.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled and sarcastically said: "Because no matter how talented he is, he will never be able to create anything on the Heavenly Treasure rank! That is why he never told you anything about that before!"
"Oi, Dummy Lan! Do not talk nonsense to my disciple! Little Xue, you do not need to listen to Dummy Lan?! Heavenly Treasure rank? Bullsh*t!" Teacher Li Wei''s voice resounded in Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue''s mind through a telepathic way.
"Heavenly Treasure is actually included in Supreme Treasure too, but it got recognized by Immortal World''s heavenlyw. Only 1,000 best Supreme Treasures registered in Heavenly Treasure Ranking List can be called Heavenly Treasures." Teacher Li Wei exined to Tang Li Xue in more detail.
"1,000 Heavenly Treasures are the best of the best created by many famous Inscriptionist Grandmasters since ancient times until now. You can imagine how hard it is to create the treasure qualified enough to enter the Heavenly Treasure Ranking List. That Dummy Lan is too dummy to even understand that!" Teacher Li Wei mocked Instructor Mei Lan again.
Tang Li Xue realized that Teacher Li Wei was actually in the VIP room beside them.
Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei started to arguing fiercely and mocking each other.
Time passed quickly and the Annual Auction this year was finally begun.
An ear-splitting bell ringing sound could be heard throughout the entire auction hall. It instantly calmed down the noise. After that, a beautiful and elegant foxdy in a purple sexy dress slowly descended from above andnded right onto the stage.
The foxdy on the jade stage was very beautiful, and her hourss-like figure was truly voluptuous.
Her beautiful dress fluttered with every soft breeze passing by. Her enchanting face carried a friendly smile, leaving more than just a good impression on all those who watched her. Furthermore, this beautiful foxdy had reached a very high rank, probably already in Spirit Beast rank.
Cough¡
When the beautiful foxdynded on the auction stage, she cleared her throat and looked around. After that, with a loud sweet and clear voice, she said, "Wee friends, wee to this year''s auction! I''m the auctioneer, Zhao Mengli, and I''ll be the ceremony mistress for today''s auction. Without further ado, let''s begin the auction now!"
The whole audience became silent. Everyone stared at the auction stage, waiting for Zhao Mengli to bring out the first auction item.
Zhao Mengli didn''t disappoint the audience this time, he didn''t give another long-winded speech. With a flip of her palm, an azure-colored fruit in the jade box instantly appeared. The azure colored fruit was constantly producing a buzzing sound, and it was glowing in a cold shine.
The apple-like azure fruit also kept emitting an irresistible freezing aura that made the temperature around the Auction House dropped by several degrees.
"This precious fruit is called Spring Ice Fruit from Eversnow Continent. This fruit can strengthen the body and expel any impurities out. There is no harmful effect, other than the extremely cold aura. Not only you will be a lot stronger without any side effects after you eat this fruit, but you will also look more handsome or beautiful!" Zhao Mengli exined with a soothing smile on her mesmerizing face.
"The starting price of this Spring Ice Fruit is 300,000 credits. The price increment should be more than 10,000 credits. The auction starts now!" Zhao Mengli shouted with her sweet voice.
Zhao Mengli announced a starting price that wasn''t too high.
"310,000 credits!"
"340,000 credits!"
"380,000 credits!"
...
The audience sitting downstairs kept bidding fiercely.
However, Tang Li Xue was already dumbfounded when she saw the familiar fruit in the auctioneer''s grasp.
"Isn''t this freezing fruit that belongs to Teacher Wei?! The one he offered to me with the other two items in exchange for two requests from me before! So Teacher Wei already nned to auction it in this Annual Auction since the very beginning?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in surprise.
Chapter 295: Specially Designed Disguising Device!
Chapter 295: Specially Designed Disguising Device!
Tang Li Xue puffed her cheek in annoyance.
She felt that she got scammed by Teacher Li Wei because she would rather pay with credits than having to do two troublesome requests for anyone.
''Sigh¡ Unfortunately, it is already toote for me. I can only hope for Teacher Li Wei to not ask me to do something too troublesometer.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation.
While Tang Li Xue still drowned in her own thought, the bidding for Spring Ice Fruit already almost reached the peak.
"400,000 credits!"
"420,000 credits!"
"One million credits!" The big shot in one of the VIP rooms immediately named a very high price and shut up the other bidders.
Even Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the others dropped their jaws at the price.
''Eh, wait a minute¡ this voice sounds familiar. Where have I heard of it before?'' Tang Li Xue thought while tried to recall it.
Instructor Mei Lan sneered coldly while said with a scornful tone: "As expected from the overly rich Inscriptionist Association, they have too many credits in their pocket and cannot wait to spend it."
"Ah¡ I remember it! This voice belongs to Teacher Li Wei''s fan, that crazy girl! Uh¡ What is her name again?" Tang Li Xue murmured, but Instructor Mei Lan could still hear her words clearly.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at Tang Li Xue''s remark and exined: "That voice belongs to Zi Yan. She is an Inscriptionist Master and also Sissy Wei''s chaser, just like what you have said."
"Her status in Inscriptionist Association is really high because she is the little sister of the President of the Inscriptionist Association, Zi Hua. Both of them are not good foxes, so be sure to never get too close to them. Do you understand?" Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue with a very stern tone.
"Instructor Lan, I understand that very clearly because¡" Tang Li Xueughed, and she started to tell Instructor Mei Lan about what happened before when she registered as a member of the Inscriptionist Association with Teacher Li Wei''s help.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled out loud after she heard Tang Li Xue''s story, and she began to mischievously tease Teacher Li Wei beside their room with her telepathy: "Sissy Wei, you are really popr, aren''t you? Why do you not just receive that Zi Yan''s feeling for you so my father would never matchmaking me with you again?"
Teacher Li Wei gnashed his teeth and replied with telepathy too: "Shut up! Dummy Lan, you should just handle your own matters! I really want to see which fool guy would dare to marry a savage woman like you! I hope you will not be an unmarried old virgin womanter!"
At first, Instructor Mei Lan also really worried about Tang Li Xue after she heard the story, but she immediately calmed down when she remembered Teacher Li Wei''s mysterious background and status and concluded that Zi Yan and Zi Hua would never dare to hurt Tang Li Xue as long as she was under Teacher Li Wei''s protection.
After finished counting until ten and no one bid higher anymore, Zhao Mengli announced that the Spring Ice Fruit was finally sold for one million credits.
"The second item is the Gold Heart Soil. The finest soil to cultivate precious herbs and miracle fruits. It is suitable to grow all types of precious herbs or miracle fruits, especially soul strengthening-type fruits or herbs. There is no further need to describe its effectiveness. Moreover, it can speed up the growth process up to 10 times! Although it is only one trunk, it is more than enough to grow two or three roots of any herbs that you like." Zhao Mengli exined to the crowds while showing her mesmerizing smile.
"The starting bid for this Gold Heart Soil is 500,000 credits!"
An old alchemist immediately shouted out loud: "One million credits! This Gold Elemental Soil must be mine!"
"Old fox, who do you think you are?! 1,200,000 credits!" Another alchemist was bidding for it too.
It was clear that this Gold Heart Soil was really precious to any alchemist since all of them started to bid higher and higher so fiercely.
"It can speed up the growth process by 10 times?! Doesn''t it mean it only needs 10 years to grow 100 years herbs?! What a godlike soil?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in amazement.
"It certainly is a good thing. Unfortunately, it can only be used once. After the precious herbs matured, that Gold Heart Soil will turn into ordinary soil." Instructor Mei Lan exined while shook her head in disappointment.
"2,000,000 credits!"
Tang Li Xue''s pinkish lips twitched violently when she heard this ursed voice.
Who else if it was not the male disciple from Alchemist and Pharmacy Association who she escorted out of Myriad Foxes Academy toplete her mission for Silver-Trial badge upgrade before?!
2,000,000 credits was a very high price, so no one dared to bid higher anymore, but Tang Li Xue knew this disciple''s arrogant personality, and she really wanted to teach him a lesson so badly.
"Instructor Lan, please help me bid for this thing! 2,100,000 credits!" Tang Li Xue anxiously asked for Instructor Mei Lan''s help.
"Why do you need this soil for?" Instructor Mei Lan frowned and asked.
Tang Li Xue giggled mischievously and replied: "I do not need this soil. I just want to prank that person¡ Hurry, Instructor Lan! I will tell you about itter!"
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled in amusement and shouted: "2,100,000 credits!"
"3,000,000 credits!" The male disciple shouted again without any hesitation.
"This kid is really crazy! Now I understand why you want to y some prank on him!" Instructor Mei Lanughed for a moment before shouted again: "3,100,000 credits!"
The male disciple: "4,000,000 credits!"
Instructor Mei Lan: "4,100,000 credits!"
The male disciple: "10,000,000 credits!"
Instructor Mei Lan subconsciously shouted: "5,100¡ What?! Err¡ I give up¡"
Instructor Mei Lan stared nkly at Tang Li Xue and asked: "Is this person''s head got kicked by a donkey before or what?"
With 10 million credits, they just needed to buy more than ten of the already matured precious herbs or miracle fruits. There was no need to nt them using the Gold Heart Soil and waited tens of years for it to reach maturity.
Even Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and the others were still stunned silly by the male disciple''s useless disy of wealth.
After a few moments, Tang Li Xue woke up from her daze andughed at Instructor Mei Lan''s response. She exined: "He is the crazy pampered disciple from Alchemist and Pharmacy Association. I escorted him and his sister in my silver-trial mission before."
Instructor Mei Lan immediately understood everything after she heard Tang Li Xue''s words and said while pitched Tang Li Xue''s soft cheek: "Poor Little Xue¡ You must be suffering a lot when escorting them."
After counting until ten, Zhao Mengli announced the Gold Heart Soil was sold to the male disciple for ten million credits.
The third item was one of Teacher Li Wei''s items again. It was a purple-colored crystal in the size of a fist.
"This purple crystal is called Yin Vein Crystal from ck Yin Continent. The energy contained inside this crystal not only can strengthen the body but also can make you immune to any mid-ranking poison or lower! If you have yin-type Vitality Energy, this Yin Vein Crystal can add Yin Poison in your Vitality Energy made each your attack far more lethal to your enemies!" Zhou Mengli patiently exined to the audience.
"The starting bid for this Yin Vein Crystal is 1,000,000 credits!"
"1,200,000 credits!"
"1,300,000 credits!"
In the end, the Yin Vein Crystal was bought by Zhi Yan too for 2,000,000 credits. It seemed she already knew that Teacher Li Wei was the one who auctioned these two items and deliberately bid for the higher price to please Teacher Li Wei.
But Teacher Li Wei did not feel happy, pleased, or excited at all. This amount of credits was nothing to him.
Let alone these few millions of credits, even tens of millions of credits could not enter his eyes.
Tang Li Xue might have thought that Teacher Li Wei was already nning to auction off his items before he offered them to her, but the reason was that he was actually toozy to store these items back in his warehouse again, so he decided to auction them off instead of throwing them away.
These two items were the most useless and worthless things in his collection after all.
The only good thing was that Metal Body Refinement Talisman, but it also worthless to him right now since he already learned all the runes. He could even make an upgraded version of Metal Body Refinement Talisman right now if he really wants to.
Teacher Li Wei took the three items out for Tang Li Xue to choose because he did not know the root cause and the severity of Little Loki''s decease.
The fourth item was a strange ck ring.
Zhou Mengli cleared her throat and started to exin: "This ck ring may look a bit strange and ugly, but do not get tricked by its appearance. It is deliberately designed like this to not look too eye-catching."
"This ck ring is actually a disguising device at mid-grade Magic Treasure Rank. It has 6 Arrays inscribed on it and specially designed for the fox like us to disguise perfectly as a human. There is no need to doubt its effect because not even the human expert at Nascent Soul Stage can look through it!" Zhou Mengli exined to the crowds with an excited tone.
"I know all of you still doubt its effect, so please allow me to demonstrate the true ability of this disguising device to you all!" Zhou Mengli said as she wore the ck ring and used her Vitality Energy to activate it.
Chapter 296: Wind Conquering Pearl!
Chapter 296: Wind Conquering Pearl!
The moment when Zhou Mengli activated the ck ring, her furry foxtail and fox ears vanished in an instant.
Even her oppressive aura as Spirit Beast rank had disappeared.
Right now, Zhou Mengli really looked like an ordinary pretty human girl.
"As you all can see, the effect of this ck ring is really wondrous. I bet none of you can see through my disguise now, right? Hehe¡ The starting bid for this Disguising Device is 500,000 credits! Let''s start the bid!" Zhou Mengli giggled cutely and said.
"520,000 credits!"
"550,000 credits!"
"560,000 credits!"
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the others stared dumbfoundedly at Zhao Mengli in amazement.
What Zhao Mengli had said was right. None of them could see through her disguise, not even Tang Li Xue''s basic level [All Knowing Eyes]!
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at their reaction and slowly advised Tang Li Xue: "This disguise-type magic treasure is not bad. I suggest you just buy it. Even if your little friend cannot use it, this disguise-type magic treasure would be very useful to youter."
Tang Li Xue pondered carefully for a while. Instructor Mei Lan will only help her buy something at 1,000,000 credits, while she has about 200,000 credits in her silver card, so she could only buy something at 1,200,000 credits.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue nned to buy something with a greater effect than just a disguising device to hide the aura, foxtail, and fox ears. A device with an identical effect with her [Ethereal Form] would be the best.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and said: "I know you have an amazing stealth-type divine ability, but from your current reaction right now, it seems you still do not know the weakness of your own stealth-type divine ability."
"Eh? The weakness of my [Ethereal Form]?" Tang Li Xue murmured while stared at Instructor Mei Lan in confusion.
"That is right. Did you hear what that auctioneer said just now? Even the human expert at Nascent Soul Stage cannot see through that disguising device. It means that ck ring have some arrays to conceal even the soul of the user." Instructor Mei Lan patiently exined while sipped the spirit tea on her cup.
"Your stealth-type divine ability does not have this kind of ability to conceal your soul. So, if you are facing the human expert at Nascent Soul Stage or any beast at Spirit Beast rank, they could detect you in an instant because they could sense all the soul in a certain radius." Instructor Mei Lan concluded her exnation.
"What?! All human experts at Nascent Soul Stage or any beast at Spirit Beast rank can detect me in my [Ethereal Form]?! But¡ when I used my [Ethereal Form] that time to take the egg in auction house¡ it seems no one detect it?" Tang Li Xue asked again in puzzlement.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and replied: "Why do you think I need to stage such a stupid drama and make a bigmotion before telling you to take the egg? I just have to tell you to use your stealth-type divine ability to take the egg, right?"
"Listen up, Little Xue! Never be toocent of yourself! Nothing is perfect in this world. No matter how powerful the ability, it would certainly have some weaknesses. The best we can do is only covering the weakness of our ability with another ability to make it looks perfect. Do you understand?" Instructor Mei Lan sternly warned Tang Li Xue, but she also stared at the others one by one.
Instructor Mei Lan''s advice was actually aimed at all of her students, not just Tang Li Xue.
After hearing Instructor Mei Lan''s words, Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and stared expectantly at Instructor Mei Lan, then nodded to her.
While the bid of the disguising device already reached 650,000 credits, Instructor Mei Lan shouted her bid too: "1,000,000 credits!"
Tang Li Xue almost fell from her couch when she heard Instructor Mei Lan increased the bid by almost 40% at once.
"Ins¡ Instructor Lan¡ why¡ why do not we y it safe and increase the bid bit by bit like the others?" Tang Li Xue hesitantly asked with a bad expression.
She really felt bad to spend so many credits at once like this. Moreover, Instructor Mei Lan increased the bid so much at once.
In Tang Li Xue''s opinion, they could buy it for 700,000-800,000 credits. There was no need for them to push the price until 1,000,000 credits.
Instructor Mei Lan sneered at Tang Li Xue''s naivet¨¦ and said: "Do you really think you can buy this disguising device for 700,000-800,000 credits?"
Tang Li Xue frowned and asked with a curious tone: "We can''t?"
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and replied: "The price estimation of mid-grade disguise-type magic treasure should be around 900,000-1,000,000 credits. If we increase the bid little by little, then the price would definitely more than 1,000,000 credits in the end. By pushing the bid to the price limit at once, we can make the others give up in an instant."
"But what if the other bid more than 1,000,000 credits?" Tang Li Xue asked again.
"Then we will give up¡" Instructor Mei Lan leisurely replied.
Tang Li Xue: "¡.."
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan had estimated, no one dared to increase the bid anymore, and Tang Li Xue managed to get the ck ring for 1,000,000 credits.
Tang Li Xue still did not know if the ck ring could work in hiding Little Loki''s trait, but she could only y that it would work.
The auction continued as usual, but Tang Li Xue did not have any more credits to buy anything, so she only watched in excitement like the others.
The fifth item was another magic treasure called Inferno Bangle. It could increase the fire attack of any creature who wore it by 50%. Someone from another VIP room bought it for 1,380,000 credits.
The sixth item was a peak-grade magic treasure with 9 arrays called Wind Conquering Pearl. It could increase the power of any wind-elemental ability by 25% while decreasing the power of the opponent''s wind elemental ability by 75%.
The first enhancing effect seemed tockpared to Inferno Bangle, but the second effect was too godly. It could basically cripple any wind-elemental user! Even the starting bid for this Wind Conquering Pearl was 1,000,000 credits.
Tang Li Xue did not feel interested in this Wind Conquering Pearl, but someone has a different opinion than her.
"Yaya~!!! Ya ya yayaya ya!" The silent and obedient Yaya immediately flew toward Tang Li Xue and babbling in excitement while pointing at the Wind Conquering Pearl on the stage.
"What?! You¡ you want that pearl?" Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in disbelief.
Yaya nodded her tiny head repeatedly while kept staring hopefully at Tang Li Xue with her glittering pair of emerald green eyes.
Yaya was always obedient, and she never asked anything from Tang Li Xue. Only this time... she begged Tang Li Xue to buy her something. Tang Li Xue wanted to buy it for her very much, but the problem was... she has no credits!
She only has 200,000 credits, while the starting price of this pearl is already one million credits!
"Yaya¡ I¡ I am really sorry¡ but it is too expensive¡ I do not have enough money to buy it¡" Tang Li Xue apologized to Yaya while blushing in embarrassment.
Yaya felt dejected in an instant, but she also understood Tang Li Xue''s predicament, so she decided to not throw a meaningless tantrum or ask for it anymore.
"Little one, you really want this?" Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently and asked Yaya.
Yaya immediately felt revitalized again and nodded her tiny head rapidly with an expression filled with excitement.
"Do not feel too happy first, I still do not know if we can win this bid or not!" Instructor Mei Lan giggled, and stroke Yaya''s head gently.
The bidding of Wind Conquering Pearl already reached 1,280,000 credits, but Instructor Mei Lan increased the price to 1,500,000 credits in an instant.
Unfortunately, someone from another VIP room increased the bid to 1,550,000 credits this time and started the bidding war with Instructor Mei Lan.
"1,600,000 credits!"
"1,700,000 credits!"
"1,750,000 credits!"
"1,800,000 credits!"
Instructor Mei Lan managed to win the bid only after she increased the price to 2,000,000 credits.
Honestly, two million credits was a bit too expensive for even for peak-grade magic treasure.
Usually, the price of any peak-grade magic treasure was only at 1,500,000 credits. Even if this Wind Conquering Pearl has such a godly effect for suppressing any wind-elemental ability user, the price should be only around 1,700,000-1,800,000 credits.
In fact, Instructor Mei Lan already wanted to give up after the price reach 1,800,000 credits, but under Yaya''s insistence, she decided to raise the bid to 2,000,000 credits.
Yaya got very happy and jumped to Instructor Mei Lan, then showered her with many kisses.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled happily at Yaya and kissed Yaya''s forehead once.
Tang Li Xue felt really ufortable since she became more indebted to Instructor Mei Lan now, so she rebuked Yaya a bit: "Yaya, is that pearl really good? You even force Instructor Lan to buy it at a lot higher price for you!"
Yaya yfully stuck out her tongue to Tang Li Xue while whispered to Tang Li Xue through their mental connection: "You will see how useful it will beter!"
Tang Li Xueughed at Yaya''s yful reaction, and she mischievously poked Yaya''s head with her index finger.
After Wind Conquering Pearl, the item auctioned at the stage got more and more precious. The bidding price had also increasing higher and higher!
The seventh item, secret weapon-type Spirit Treasure with eighteen arrays called Demon ying Needle sold for 4,250,000 credits.
The eighth item, Bloodline Purifying Pill¡ sold for 8,580,000 credits.
The ninth item, Evolution Breakthrough Pill¡ sold for 12,500,000 credits.
Chapter 297: Crazy War of Bidding!
Chapter 297: Crazy War of Bidding!
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and the others stunned silly, and almost drooled at the price of Bloodline Purifying Pill and Evolution Breakthrough Pill.
"Ins¡ Instructor Lan, if I be an Alchemist too, can I concoct those extremely expensive pills too?" Bing Yi asked Instructor Mei Lan with glittering eyes.
Bing Yi''s question immediately caught Tang Li Xue''s attention, and she also stared at Instructor Mei Lan with eyes full of hope.
She had already be a Beginner-rank Alchemist, but she never tried to concoct any pill.
However, Tang Li Xue was more than willing to learn how to concoct the pill if she could make the pills as expensive as those two auctioned pills!
Not only Bing Yi and Tang Li Xue, even Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others were really tempted to be Alchemists and learn how to concoct the pills.
Instructor Mei Lan Laughed at their enthusiasm and said: "Do you think making those pills is so easy? It will take tens to hundreds of years to learn, and even if you are all lucky enough to be a master level Alchemist, the sess rate of concocting rare pills like those two is not that big, about 20-30 percent."
"But it does not matter, all kinds of professions can easily make you rich once you manage to reach master level, so you all can choose carefully which profession suits you the most. Honestly, you are all still too young for that. Any profession would be meaningless if you are too weak to even defend yourself. All of you just need to learn how to fight and survive properly for now." Instructor Mei Lan suggested to Bing Yi and the others.
Actually, Instructor Mei Lan omitted many details on her suggestion to keep her student''s feelings.
Such as something like... Only foxes with a strong backing, having a lot of money, or an amazing background could ever think about learning the Sub-Profession.
Because no matter what Sub-Professions they would choose, it would need to burn a lot of credits to buy their needs and¡ proper teacher to teach them!
From the two crazy disciples from Alchemist and Pharmacy Association until Teacher Li Wei, which one of them did not have a powerful background to support them?!
Because they would need a lot of credits to buy the ingredients, herbs, talismans, inscription pen, and so on!
Moreover, all the master-level in any profession were super busy with their own businesses. They already had a lot of credits, so just paying them with credits was far from enough to attract their interest. That was why to be their disciple anyone would also need a strong connection to rmend them.
It could be said that a case like Tang Li Xue, where she could be the disciple of Teacher Li Wei was very rare. The probability was probably even less than walked on the street and found a lottery to win one billion dors.
Instructor Mei Lan did not want to taint her students'' innocent minds yet with this problem, so she did not tell them for now.
All of her students have her as their backing anyway. If they became more matured or strongerter, Instructor Mei Lan would naturally rmend them to some teachers ording to the sub-profession they have chosenter.
Ten more items got auctioned and the price of each of them got higher and higher.
The twentieth item was a Supreme Treasure called Nine Phoenix me Furnace with 126 Arrays inscribed on it.
The audience became crazy in an instant especially all the guests in VIP rooms.
Who knew that Instructor Zhiruo was also an Alchemist, and she had a fierce bidding war with the two crazy disciples from Alchemist and Pharmacy Association.
In the end, the two crazy disciples from Alchemist and Pharmacy Association managed to win the bid and bought the Nine Phoenix me Furnace for 286,500,000 credits.
Tang Li Xue and the others were already stupefied and even forget to close their mouth by how rich those two disciples were.
Instructor Mei Lanughed at their dumbfounded expression again and said with a joking tone: "That is still nothing. The price of thest three items should be much higher than that stupid furnace. You all better prepare your heart because I will not carry you if you fainted here."
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan had said to Tang Li Xue and the others, Zhao Mengli also announced to all the audience the same thing not long after that.
"All Esteemed Guests, the Annual Auction this year is almost over, but I am sure thesest three items will not disappoint all of you." Zhao Mengli said with a mysterious beautiful smile on her pretty face.
Zhao Mengli took out a scroll and unfurled it for everyone to see: "The firstst item is this [Cherry Blossom of the Four Seasons] painting. This is thetest beautiful work of the Mysterious Master Mian, so I do not need to exin anymore how much it worth, right?"
When Tang Li Xue and the others stared at the painting, their surrounding scene immediately changed.
It was as if they were really sat in the middle of many Cherry Blossom trees!
They could even smell the fragrance of Cherry Blossom and the change of weather around them!
The Cherry Blossom trees fluttered slightly when the wind gently blowing. Many of Cherry Blossom Flowers fell because of it.
Tang Li Xue caught one of the Cherry Blossom''s petals, and she could really feel it in her touch.
"This is impossible¡ Is this an illusion or not?! But¡ I still wear the ring ne on my neck! I should be able to sense it if I really fall into any illusion?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in disbelief.
--------------------------------------------------------------
[Huang Family Heirloom Ring]
[Description: The treasure of Huang Family''s Head that was passed down from generation to generation]
[Effect 1: Illusion Immunity (The wearer can sense it when they fall under the illusion effect and they can break out from it anytime they want)]
[Effect 2: Luck +30]
[Effect 3: ???]
--------------------------------------------------------------
"This is what all the Master Level Painters can do. If they want it, they can trap you all in their painting for eternity." Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as usual and exined.
"Humph! That is no more than a cheap trick! Painter is no more than a useless profession! Besides, that picture can only trap the weak-minded creatures!" Teacher Li Wei harshly criticized it.
"Sissy Wei¡ do you really want to die so badly?!" Instructor Mei Lan said with a threatening tone.
When Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei argued fiercely again each other, all the guests already turned crazy.
"What the¡ That painting is the masterpiece of the Mysterious Master Mian?! Priceless treasure¡ It is really the priceless treasure!"
"Impossible! Isn''t the Mysterious Master Mian already retired many years ago?! Is that really a real one?!"
"Shut up, all of you! Hurry! Let''s just start the bid already!"
Zhao Mengli smiled in satisfaction after she saw all the guests'' reaction and said: "All Esteemed Guests should already know the [Cherry Blossom of the Four Seasons]''s pricelessness, so I will not set the starting bid. I will let All Esteemed Guests determine it. Let''s start the bid now!"
"100,000,000 credits!"
"Scram! You want to buy Master Mian''s masterpiece for a mere 100 million credits?! Dream on! 300,000,000 credits!"
"350,000,000 credits!"
"380,000,000 credits!"
"400,000,000 credits!"
"Th¡ They are all crazy!" Tang Li Xue murmured in disbelief as she almost slipped down from her couch.
This [Cherry Blossom of the Four Seasons] painting was sold for 877,000,000 credits in the end.
Zhao Mengli giggled while said: "All right, I know everyone already got impatient to see the secondst item! Let''s just get started!"
This time Zhao Mengli took out a silver disc.
Zhao Mengli took a deep breath and said all in one breath: "This is the space-time Supreme Treasure called Stopping Diagram with 356 Arrays. Thetest masterpiece creation of legendary Master Inscriptionist, Master Li Wei."
All the guests fell silent for a few moments before shouting out loud all at once!
"WOOOOOAAAAAHHHH~~~!!!"
"Is¡ Is that thetest creation of Master Li Wei?! I must buy it at all cost!"
"Oh God, 356 Arrays! As we expected from the future Grandmaster Li Wei!"
Zhao Mengli smiled mischievously and injected her Vitality Energy to [Stopping Diagram].
The silver disc, [Stopping Diagram], started to spinning and let out the bright silvery glow.
WWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNGGG~!!!
In that instant, all the guests stopped moving and fell silent like statues.
"This is the true power of this [Stopping Diagram]! It can create a domain where the time and space stay still as long as the [Stopping Diagram] spinning. Of course, it spends a lot of Vitality Energy to activate it, but as you can see... the effect is truly worth it!" Zhao Mengli exined while giggled softly.
"Just like before, I will not set the starting bid. I would just let all Esteemed Guests determine its worth! Let''s start the bidding!" Zhao Mengli said as she turned off the [Stopping Diagram]''s effect.
"500,000,000 credits~!"
"Wants to buy space-time Supreme Treasure created by Master Li Wei for only 500 million credits?! Begone! 650,000,000 credits!"
"700,000,000 credits!"
Tang Li Xue almost fainted on the spot and had a mental breakdown when she heard Teacher Li Wei''s name and the hundreds of millions of credits.
They were both inscriptionists, but why were their abilities so different?!
"I will be really happy and smile in my sleep if my creation can make a hundredth of Teacher Li Wei''s creation¡" Tang Li Xue really wanted to cry so much in misery, but there were no tearse out.
"Hoo? Even my creation is not the mainst item of this Annual Auction? Interesting! It seems we can look forward more on thest itemter. By the way, the price of my creation is higher than your useless painting! Dummy Lan, you better start to respect me more from now on!" Teacher Li Wei tantly said to Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue: "Wut?!"
Bing Yi: "What?!"
Hei Yinghao: "Eeeeehhhh?!"
The others: "Impossible?! "
Chapter 298: End of the Auction!
Chapter 298: End of the Auction!
"Ins¡ Instructor Lan¡ That Cherry Blossom thing is yours?!" Tang Li Xue asked while widened her topaz blue eyes in shock.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes andzily replied: "It is called [Cherry Blossom of the Four Seasons]. Unlike Sissy Wei, painting is only my side hobby. Usually, I would never sell any of my work if I do not need more credits."
"But I need those credits to buy some protection items for you three as insurance when you three follow me on the mission outside Myriad Foxes Academyter. You three can look forward to it." Instructor Mei Lan chuckled.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao felt really touched by Instructor Mei Lan''s concern for them.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled when she saw the touched expression of Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao and said leisurely while dismissively waved her hand: "You three do not need to put that kind of faces. I already said it before, right? Any master-level profession can earn a lot of credits easily."
"In fact, this [Cherry Blossom of the Four Seasons] is the worst one amongst my works. I can easily make another one exactly like this in a few hours. Unlike someone from the room beside us! Tsk, tsk tsk¡ Supreme Treasure with 356 Arrays! I wonder how long he made it¡ Five years? No, that is too short. It should be around 7-8 years, right?!" Instructor Mei Lan said with a sarcastic tone.
"It is for four years and eight months! Hei, the stupid Dummy Lan! Unlike your useless painting, my Supreme Treasure can momentarily freeze the time and space in a certain radius! The strength of my creation is only below the Heavenly Treasure!" Teacher Li Wei felt offended and replied with a cold tone.
"Ssshhh¡ four years and eight months?! Oh my, my, my¡ How many paintings can I make in those three years? Hundreds? Maybe thousands? If I sell all of those paintings, how many Supreme Treasures can I buy with those credits? Tens? Nope¡ Should be enough to buy a few hundred or more, right?" Instructor Mei Lan said while stretched her fingers out as if she was counting something.
With that, Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan started to argue fiercely with each other again.
Although they were saying that, but those were not the truth, and they were mostly only joking.
Teacher Li Wei really spent almost five years to create that [Stopping Diagram], but it was because he used most of his time to experiment in trial and error until he finally seeded in creating it. If he wanted to create another one right now, he only needs one or two weeks at most since he already knew perfectly how to make it.
It was the same for Instructor Mei Lan¡
Although she said she could make hundreds or even thousands of paintings, but it was only a bluff.
It was impossible for a person¡ or rather a fox like Instructor Mei Lan to cope in her room for the entire four years and drawing the paintings all days!
She could only probably create a few paintings at most in a year, and that if she has enough free time and mood to do that.
In fact, Instructor Mei Lan was too busy with her own works, missions, and teaching or training her students every day until she did not even have enough time and mood to hold the paintbrush anymore. That was the reason why the auction''s audience said the Mysterious Master Mian had retired a few years ago.
Just like what Teacher Li Wei had predicted before, his creation, the [Stopping Diagram], was sold for almost twice the price of Instructor Mei Lan''s [Cherry Blossom of the Four Seasons]. It was sold at 1,450,000,000 credits.
''What the hell..... How many zero again is that?!'' Tang Li Xue thought with a dumbfounded expression. Even her drool was almost dripping onto her couch.
"Instructor Lan, the one who made that painting is you?! But why they said it was the work of Master Mian?" Bing Yi asked curiously.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and replied: "That is just my alias. I only shortened it from my name."
"Pffftt¡ Mian (t) is really a suitable name for you¡" Teacher Li Wei said while muffled hisughter.
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression darkened a lot, and they started to mock each other harshly.
Zhao Mengli took a deep breath, and her expression turned solemn in an instant.
"All Esteemed Guests, our Annual Auction this year is almost reaching the end, and all of you should be already know that thest item would be the best item auctioned this year." Zhao Mengli said with a serious tone.
"I know all of you are already impatient to know what thest item is, so let''s see it now!" Zhao Mengli bowed to the audience and waved her hand.
Thest item did not appear on Zhao Mengli''s hand this time, but it was brought onto the stage by two more Spirit beast rank foxes.
Thest item was still covered with red cloth, so they could not see it. But all audience could feel thest item was far from ordinary since three Spirit beast rank foxes were guarding it now on the stage!
Zhao Mengli gave a gentle beautiful smile to all the audience before pulling the red cloth.
Thest item was actually a dpidated scroll stored inside the transparent ss box.
"That thing is¡" Even Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei stopped arguing and mocking each other and stared at the dpidated scroll with solemn expressions.
Zhao Mengli slowly exined: "Do not look down on this old scroll because ourst item might actually be the most precious one in this century. This old scroll is actually a map of the secret space."
All the audience immediately shouted out loud in surprise and started to mor loudly in disbelief and confusion.
Only Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and the others were still stared at the old scroll in puzzlement.
"Instructor Lan, what is secret space?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan first before the others.
But Instructor Mei Lan felt speechless too right now. It took a few seconds before she woke up from her daze and answered Tang Li Xue''s question.
"It is hard to exin. The secret space is a hidden ce like our Myriad Foxes Academy. Anyone needs a special method to be able to enter it. No one knows what is contained inside it. It could bend rich in resources or the fallen ancient sect along with its lost inheritance. In short, the secret space is really precious beyond everyone''s imagination." Instructor Mei Lan patiently exined.
However, Tang Li Xue and the others still showed their confused expression.
Because they thought how an abandonednd or the fallen ancient sect could be so precious in their eyes?!
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes in annoyance and immediately gave a concrete example: "For example, if this Myriad Foxes Academy somehow got abandoned or fall one day. Do you think we can take all the precious things with us? Do not be too naive! If somehow we faced the cmity of destruction, the most we can only take is about 20-30 percent of it."
"Moreover, for the blessednd or the fallen sect to capable to have the secret space like our Myriad Foxes Academy, it means that their resources and strength are almost equal or maybe even stronger than us! Imagine if 60-80 percent of Myriad Foxes Academy''s total resources belong to only one fox..." Instructor Mei Lan concluded her exnation with a stern expression.
''What the hell¡?! 60-80 percent of Myriad Foxes Academy''s total resources!!!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes almost jumped out of their sockets.
Zhao Mengli did not even say anything about the starting bid, but all the audience already started to shout their bid by themselves!
"10,000,000,000 credits!"
"Scram! That map is mine! 15,000,000,000 credits!"
"C¡ crazy!" Tang Li Xue almost passed out by their monstrous amount of bid.
"30,000,000,000 credits!"
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw when she heard Teacher Li Wei''s voice.
''Holysh*t! Teacher Wei is so God damn rich! Why the hell he still wants to extort me before?!'' Tang Li Xue grumbled in her heart.
"32,000,000,000 credits!"
"35,000,000,000 credits!"
"40,000,000,000 credits!"
''And here I am still thinking 500,000 credits is already really a lot¡ I even need almost 2 weeks to get it.'' Tang Li Xue thought dispiritedly.
If the other students from education knew Tang Li Xue''s thought they would probably strangle her to death on the spot.
500,000 credits was really a lot, especially for a new disciple that not even entered Myriad Foxes Academy for one year!
The bid for the dpidated scroll was actually much crazier than Tang Li Xue and the others expected.
Even the insanely rich Teacher Li Wei got pressured a lot by the other super-wealthy foxes from the other VIP rooms.
This kind of bidding was out of their league. Even someone like Instructor Mei Lan, Instructor Zhiruo, and the two disciples from Alchemist and Pharmacy Association could not participate in the auction on this level.
Teacher Li Wei finally managed to win the bid after increased the price to 145,000,000,000 credits!
The Annual Auction this year finally came to end, and all the foxes on the first floor were dispersed immediately.
Some of them were still waiting in VIP rooms for a few moments until the attendant brought the item they previously won into the VIP rooms before they paid for it.
Chapter 299: The Secret Within [Wind Conquering Pearl]!
Chapter 299: The Secret Within [Wind Conquering Pearl]!
Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the others have also waited patiently in their VIP room while eating the delicious snacks and drinking the spirit tea.
After a few moments, the female attendant knocked on their VIP room''s door a few times before entered and brought the items Instructor Mei Lan bought with her.
The beautiful female attendant smiled gently to all of them and asked politely: "Esteemed Guest, you have bought disguise-type Magic treasure for 1,000,000 credits and [Wind Conquering Pearl] for 2,000,000 credits. You have also sold the [Cherry Blossom of the Four Seasons] painting for 877,000,000 credits.?So you still have 874,000,000 credits left. Should I transfer all of it into your ount now?"
Instructor Mei Lan nodded her head and took out her white jade card from her space pouch while replied: "Yes, just transfer all the credits into my card now."
The beautiful female attendant nodded to Instructor Mei Lan and transferred all of 874,000,000 credits into her white jade card.
"Thank you very much for using our service. I sincerely hope all Esteemed Guests are satisfied with our service." The beautiful female attendant said while bowed politely.
Instructor Mei Lan gave the disguise-type Magic treasure to Tang Li Xue and the [Wind Conquering Pearl] to Yaya.
Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Li Jing, and the others could only stare at Tang Li Xue and Yaya with eyes full of envy.
Yaya flew around happily after received the [Wind Conquering Pearl] and kissed Instructor Mei Lan''s cheek a few times more.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at Yaya''s excited expression and pinched Yaya''s soft cheek gently.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently while thinking: ''The hell?! Isn''t Fake Dragon said that the Elf-type Elemental Spirit would only treat me as her closest kin and treat the others with hostility?! This is bad! It seems Yaya has almost be a money-grubber! I should teach her more strictly from now on, so she would not get cheated by the other moneybagster!''
Of course, only Tang Li Xue thought too much about it.
Yaya''s intelligence already quite high right now after she evolved into [Rare] grade, so she could certainly distinguish between friends or strangers.
"Little Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox! You three will follow me to carry out my monthly mission outside Myriad Foxes Academy three days from now on, so I will give you two days off to prepare yourselves. Do not forget to assemble at my courtyard on the third day really early in the morning!" Instructor Mei Lan warned them with a stern tone.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao replied: "Understood, Instructor Lan!"
"Good! All of you can disperse and return to your ce now." Instructor Mei Lan nodded while smiling with a satisfied expression.
The sky already turned dark when all of them went out from Auction House together.
Instructor Mei Lan parted with them halfway, since she went back to her house on the back of the Education Department Building rather than to the Residential Building like all of them.
Tang Li Xue brought Yaya and the others to the luxurious restaurant on the first floor of the Residential Building and treated them all for dinner.
Instructor Mei Lan brought two items for Yaya and her while they got nothing today after all.
Tang Li Xue felt a bit guilty, so she decided to treat them for dinner now.
After eating their dinner until they felt really full, they went back into their respective room.
Tang Li Xue brought Yaya back into her bedroom and summoned Little Loki out from her system pet storage.
"Nyaaa~!!!"
It seems Little Loki missed Tang Li Xue a lot since it got confined in the system''s pet storage from the early morning until night today.
Little Loki jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and licked her soft cheek again and again.
"Ahahaha¡ I know you miss me so much because I miss you a lot too. You must be bored to death in that cramped storage, right? I am really sorry, Little Loki! But you do not need to worry about it anymore! Jajang~! Look at this!" Tang Li Xue cheerfully took out the ck ring from her space pouch and proudly showed it to Little Loki.
This ck ring was none other than the disguise-type magic treasure given by Instructor Mei Lan to her.
Little Loki''s third eyes widened in excitement when it saw the ck ring on Tang Li Xue''s grasp.
"Nyaaa~! Nyaaaa~!!!" As if Little Loki thanked Tang Li Xue for her gift, it licked Tang Li Xue''s face many more times.
"Ahaha¡ All right, that enough. My face will be filled with your saliva if you keep lick me like that." Tang Li Xue said with a joking tone while pinched Little Loki''s soft tiny cheek.
After ying around with Little Loki for a few moments, Tang Li Xue started to use her Vitality Energy to change the size of the ck ring.
Yes, the size of the ck ring could be changed at will. The user only needed to input a bit of Vitality Energy to adjust it ording to their will.
Tang Li Xue nned to make this ck ring bigger, so Little Loki could wear it on its neck like a choker.
"This ck ring is an expensive disguise-type magic treasure specially designed for any fox to disguise as human. Hopefully, you can use it to hide your evil aura, ck horns, wings, and pointed tail, so you can roam freely without any worry to..." Tang Li Xue patiently exined to Little Loki.
Little Loki rolled its third eyes. It obvious Little Loki already knew the function of this ck ring without any need for Tang Li Xue to exin it. If not, how could it feel so happy when it saw the ck ring just now.
Sometimes Little Loki started to worry about its master''s IQ just like now.
Without waiting for Tang Li Xue to finish her exnation, Little Loki already opened its mouth, and the ck ring on Tang Li Xue''s grasp was sucked into its mouth.
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock.
" You¡ You¡ How could you swallow it like that?! That is not food! Hurry, vomit that out again!" Tang Li Xue shouted in panic.
That was 1,000,000 credits worth of Magic Treasure, but Little Loki devoured it just like a snack.
Tang Li Xue never knew Little Loki''s ability to replicate any ability from anything it swallowed, so she was afraid that the expensive disguise-type magic treasure she got from Instructor Mei Lan would get wasted just like that.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to scold Little Loki right now, but she felt that Little Loki was still too little to understand its mistake.
Tang Li Xue thought Little Loki misunderstanding her intent and assumed that she gave it a snack.
"Sigh¡ It is over¡ But this is all my mistakes¡ I cannot me it on anyone else¡" Tang Li Xue murmured with a nk expression.
Drowned in her misery, Tang Li Xue failed to notice Little Loki''s change.
The pair of ck sheep''s horn, the bat-like wings, and the devil-like pointed tail on Little Lokipletely vanished into thin air!
Even its oppressive evil and sinister aura could not be sensed anymore!
Right now, Little Loki''s appearance looks like an ordinary cute ck kitten!
Little Loki frowned at Tang Li Xue, who remained oblivious of its change, so it decided to do something to draw her attention.
"Nyaaaa~! Nya~ Nya~!" Little Loki meowed while jumped onto Tang Li Xue''sp.
Tang Li Xue jumped in surprise when she nced at Little Loki''s current appearance.
"It¡ It still works! Wahahaha¡ So the ck ring is still working even in your stomach?! As I expected from a magic treasure! So amazing!" Tang Li Xueughed in excitement while lifted Little Loki high and embraced it in her soft bosom.
Little Loki rolled its third eye and thought: "It is not that ck ring, but it is me who is amazing¡ Oh well, whatever makes you happy¡"
BBBWWWOOOOOOOOOSSSHHHH~!!!
Suddenly, a very strong wind blew fiercely in Tang Li Xue''s bedroom!
"Wha¡ What is happening?!" Tang Li Xue asked while looked around in confusion.
After entered the bedroom, Yaya actually already took out her [Wind Conquering Pearl] from her own tiny space pouch. She even already examined it carefully from every angle.
Yaya was a wind-elemental spirit, so she was very sensitive about something involved wind-elemental.
Her sense as wind-elemental spirit told her this [Wind Conquering Pearl] held a very big secret.
She was very sure about it, but her mood worsened after she failed to find anything useful when she examined the [Wind Conquering Pearl].
Moreover, she was forced to look at her mommy, Tang Li Xue was ying around happily with her little brother without her!
Yaya puffed her cheek in anger and jealousy.
She lost all of her curiosity and excited mood to examine the [Wind Conquering Pearl] in her grasp.
Out of anger, Yaya used her new powerful ability [Vacuum sh] to cut the [Wind Conquering Pearl] in two!
Who knows somethingpletely unexpected was happening in front of her eyes right now!
When the [Wind Conquering Pearl] was cut in two by Yaya, something hidden inside it waspletely revealed!
"This is impossible, right?! That is¡ the wind-elemental spirit?! No way! Is that really the spirit-type elemental spirit?!" Tang Li Xue stared at the ball of wind in the middle of her bedroom in shock and disbelief.
No one would expect that the spirit-type elemental spirit was actually hidden inside a Magic Treasure, the [Wind Conquering Pearl]!
Chapter 300: Spirit Fusion!
Chapter 300: Spirit Fusion!
The wind-elemental spirit hidden within the [Wind Conquering Pearl] was the same type as her Blue Phoenix of Pride!
However, her Blue Phoenix of Pride already evolved from Embryo Form to Fetus/Fetal Form, while this wind-elemental spirit was still in the earliest period of its Embryo Form.
Moreover, her Blue Phoenix of Pride was one of the highest-ranked elemental spirits in Immortal World since it was one of the Seven Earthly Desire Spirits.
Furthermore, her Blue Phoenix of Pride has always been assimted with a minuscule amount of Pure Yang Sun me''s essence stored inside the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] every day until now.
Tang Li Xue was very sure her Blue Phoenix of Pride would grow into something more amazing sooner orter andpletely surpassing the other Seven Earthly Desire Spirits.
In short, this wind-elemental spirit might be really precious to others, but it was almost worthless for Tang Li Xue.
When Tang Li Xue was still busily thinking about what she would do to this wind-elemental spirit, whether she should sell it or return it to Instructor Mei Lan, something unexpected was happening again!
That hovering ball of swirling wind was filled with countless tiny green lights like fireflies that made it look more mysterious and beautiful.
The fist-sized ball of swirling wind actually started to slowly approach Yaya!
Yaya was stunnedpletely and did not know what to do, so she unconsciously stretched her hand to touch the ball of swirling wind.
"Yaya!!!" Tang Li Xue shouted in a panic to stop Yaya, but it was already toote.
Yaya''s tip of slender tiny finger already touched the ball of swirling wind!
FWOOOOOSSSHHH~~!!!
The ball of swirling wind was actually sucked into Yaya''s tiny body, and the dense sparkling tiny green lights surrounded her body right now!
The Yaya who was currently hovering immediately fainted and fell down.
Fortunately, there was a soft bed underneath her, so her body fell on top of it.
Tang Li Xue swiftly dashed toward Yaya to check on her condition, but¡
"Nyaaa~! Nyaaa~!" Little Loki moved quicker than Tang Li Xue and jumped down from her shoulder, then stood in front of the unconscious Yaya.
Little Lokimunicated with Tang Li Xue through their mental connection and told her not to worry about Yaya.
"Eh? Little Loki stop ying around! Look¡ Yaya seems suffering a lot of pain now!" Tang Li Xue frowned and said with an angry tone.
BBWWOOOOOSSSHHH~~!!!
The barrier wind started to cover the unconscious Yaya like a cocoon.
"NyaNyaNya~!" Little Loki waved its tiny ck paw to reassure Tang Li Xue and told her not to worry.
However, Tang Li Xue still hesitated for a few whiles.
Little Loki rolled its third eye and sent a short exnation to Tang Li Xue''s mind through their mental connection.
[Spirit Fusion]!
That was the name of the phenomenon that happened to Yaya and that spirit-type wind-elemental spirit right now.
The elemental spirits from Elf-type and spirit-type who possessed the same elemental could actually fuse into one!
The two of them would have a symbiotic rtionship with each other, and both of them would gain so much benefit from this [Spirit Fusion].
It could improve both of their growth much faster. It could even increase all of their abilities and overall stats by several levels.
This [Spirit Fusion] was actually the only way for all Elf-type elemental spirits to conceive their child.
Right now, both Yaya and that spirit-type wind-elemental spirit were still in the process called [Tuning].
The two of them were still adapting and adjusting their bodies to fit each other.
It was almost the same process as when the deep-blue me of Pride assimted into Tang Li Xue''s body before.
But both Yaya and that wind-elemental spirit were both from Elemental Spirit Race, so they would be integrated deeper than Tang Li Xue and Phoenix of Pride, and the benefit they would get will also exceed Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she received a bit of information from Little Loki.
"Thank you, Little Loki! You¡ you are so smart!" Tang Li Xue said in amazement and gently patted Little Loki''s furry head.
Tang Li Xue fell silent for a while and pondered the information given by Little Loki for a while.
"Wait a minute¡ Con, con, con, conceive?! What?! What the hell?! This [Spirit Fusion] can make Yaya pregnant?! No, no, no, no way! I, your mommy, Tang Li Xue would never let it happen! What to do! I must cancel their fusion now!" The calmed Tang Li Xue shouted in surprise and jumped around again in panic.
Little Loki rubbed its tiny paw onto its furry head in frustration and exined again through their mental connection.
It was still far too early to think about conceiving and pregnancy, because in order to reach that state, both of them must enter their Adult/Mature Form first.
Yaya would need to evolve 3 times again to reach her Mature Form, while that spirit-type elemental spirit would need to evolve 5 more times.
How long it would take for them to reach that?
Usually, it would probably take several tens of thousands of years for any elemental spirits to naturally reach that state. Even with proper nurturing with countless precious resources, both of them would need several hundreds of years to reach maturity.
''Anyway, do you even have countless precious resources to nurture them properly?!''
Tang Li Xue was staring silently at Little Loki, while Little Loki was also staring at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue sat beside Little Loki and gently patted Little Loki''s furry head again.
"You are right. It is too early for me to think about that. I should just let them do what they want. They are still toddlers after all." Tang Li Xue murmured while nodded her head as if she finally understood Little Loki''s exnation.
Since Yaya upied her bedroom, Tang Li Xue decided to train her [Art of Concealment] in the courtyard to clear her mind.
She could not sleep anyway because she was still worried about Yaya''s condition.
After a few hours, Yaya''s [Tuning] process with the spirit-type wind-elemental spirit was finallypleted, and the wind cocoon around Yaya also automatically dispersed.
Tang Li Xue anxiously checked Yaya''s condition only to find that she fell asleep in exhaustion.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, and she tried to examine Yaya''s change more closely.
Yaya''s appearance was still the same as always, but there were several sparks of green lights which always hovering around her right now.
Since Tang Li Xue could not find anything changed in Yaya''s appearance, she opened Yaya''s window status from her system to look if Yaya has something new.

----------
"Hmmm¡ Yaya''s stats get some boosts¡ What is this [Fusion skill]? It seems interesting! Wind of Kindness?" Tang Li Xue murmured softly to not awake the sleeping Yaya, but her topaz blue eyes brightened a lot when she saw [Wind of Kindness].
"Don''t tell me this [Wind of Kindness] is one of the Seven Heavenly Will Spirits?! It should be it, right?! Kindness¡ Doesn''t it mean I already have one of the Seven Earthly Desire Spirits and one of the Seven Heavenly Will Spirits?! I really hope so!" Tang Li Xue excitedly whispered to herself.
After calmed down her excited mood, Tang Li Xue started to make many talismans with her Golden [Inscription Pen] as the preparation to carry out the mission with Instructor Mei Lan two dayster.
It took her more than one day to make that many talismans. She divided the portion of her talismans to four, so she could give it to Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and her perfect copyter.
Tang Li Xue also decided to test Yaya''s two new [Fusion Skills] to know their effects.
The effect was not that powerful but very practical and useful.
Healing Gust could heal HP for 300 every second, relieve pain, and reduce fatigue, plus it could also increase the wind-elemental ability of allies by 25%.
Dissonance Melody could make all the foes in a certain radius have sore eyes and feel dizzy, thus decreased their uracy by a lot. It also made the surrounding wind turned chaotic, so it would decrease the power of the opponent''s wind elemental ability by 75%.
Both of them were used for support, but crazily useful in battle.
Unknowingly, the two days had already passed, and it was the time for Tang Li Xue to meet with Instructor Mei Lan.
Chapter 301: Silent Clash!
Chapter 301: Silent sh!
Tang Li Xue took a bath together with Yaya and Little Loki very early in the morning, then went out from her room to meet with Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi.
"Eh? Little Xue, is that your newpanion? Waaa~~!!! How cute?! Let me carry it!" Bing Yi''s eyes brightened, and she smiled happily when she saw Little Loki''s cute appearance.
But when Bing Yi stretched her hands to touch Little Loki in Tang Li Xue''s embrace¡
"Meoo~~!!!" Little Loki meowed in displeasure, and it slipped out from Tang Li Xue''s embrace, then jumped to Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder.
"Little Loki, Bingbing is my best friend, so you do not need to afraid of her¡ Come! Just let her caress your fur for a bit!" Tang Li Xueforted Little Loki while giggled at Little Loki''s timidness.
Bing Yi nodded her head repeatedly with a silly smile on her face and opened her hands as if she was waiting for Little Loki to jump toward her.
"Nyaaa~!!!" Little Loki looked away haughtily from Bing Yi. It was clear Little Loki rejected to be touched by her.
"Pffft¡ Bwahahaha¡ Poor Ice Girl, it does not even want to look at your face anymore! Little thing,e here, Daddy Yinghao will give you this if you y with Daddy Yonghao now!" Hei Yinghao said while taking out a dried fish from his space pouch to tempt Little Loki.
All of them already knew this mission with Instructor Mei Lan would not be easy, so they brought many rations with them in their space pouches for emergency situations.
Tang Li Xue probably brought much more rations in her space pouch than Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi because she must feed Yaya and Little Loki too on their wayter.
"Humph! What a despicable trick?!" Bing Yi angrily said.
Little Loki did not move at all at Hei Yinghao''s temptation. It only stared silently at Hei Yinghao with disdain.
Hei Yinghao did not feel angry andughed at Little Loki instead.
"Little thing, I am not trying to trick you. Here! You can eat it first before ying with Daddy Hei Yinghao! How about it?!" Hei Yinghao said as he pushed the dried fish he was holding to Little Loki.
Little Loki narrowed its third eye dangerously in irritation.
It could be said Little Loki really has a great temperament as the strongest one amongst the Four Evil Fiend Beasts.
Which Evil Fiend Beasts would spare these two foxes if they teased any of Evil Fiend Beasts this far?!
Of course, it was mainly because Little Loki identified these two as Tang Li Xue''s best friends, if not, these two would be already entered its mouth like the people from Immortal Sword Sect before.
"Stop it¡ My Little Loki only eats Beast Cores. Do not give it any random food! What if it got stomachacheter?!" Tang Li Xue said while brushed Hei Yinghao''s hand aside, which still holding a dried fish.
"O¡oh, I am sorry. So, it only ate Beast Cores? I do not bring any Beast Cores with me now¡" Hei Yinghao replied while scratched his head in guilt.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao chatted and joked with each other while walked out from the Residential Building and heading toward the Education Department Building.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao tried to talk to Little Loki on their way, but itpletely ignored them and onlyzilyying down on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder.
While Yaya also sat obediently on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head and yawned in boredom.
"Oh, yes! Bingbing, Silly Fox, take this!" Tang Li Xue threw a stack of talismans to each of them.
"This¡" Hei Yinghao stared nkly at a stack of talismans in her grasp.
"We would never know what will happen in our journeyter, so it would better if we prepared from now on. I give these to you two now, so we can prepare for the worst situation in the future. Do not be a miser and just use them as you like! You can ask more from me if you already used all of it. I make a lot of it in these two days." Tang Li Xue generously said to them.
"Little Xue¡ Uwaaahhhh~!!! My Little Xue is really the kindest and the best! I really love you to death!" Bing Yi said with a touched tone while she jumped onto Tang Li Xue and hugged Tang Li Xue''s soft body tightly.
"Little Xue, I really love you to death too!" Hei Yinghao imitated Bing Yi''s touched tone and jumped toward Tang Li Xue too, but he only got kicked away by Bing Yi and Tang Li Xue.
It did not take long for them to reach the Education Department Building.
Instructor Mei Lan already waited for them at the building''s entrance.
"Good morning, Instructor Lan!" The three of them greeted Instructor Mei Lan together.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded at the three of them with the usual gentle smile on her beautiful face, but her gaze immediately fell onto Little Loki, whoid downzily on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder.
Little Loki sensed Instructor Mei Lan''s gaze, so it raised its furry head and stared back at Instructor Mei Lan with its third eye.
Their stare locked at each other for a few moments.
Instructor Mei Lan was always afraid that Tang Li Xue would ''invite the wolf into her own house'' (bring something disastrous that will bring cmity to herself), so she was trying to carefully size up Little Loki now.
No one knew what Instructor Mei Lan would do if she knew that Tang Li Xue did not only invite the wolf but something far even more terrible and disastrous than that, one that will bring cmity not only to herself but also to every creature in any realm.
While Little Loki also evaluated Instructor Mei Lan too at the same time.
Little Loki rated Instructor Mei Lan as someone prudent, vignt, smart, and powerful.
The type that Little Loki hated the most!
Usually, when met with someone like Instructor Mei Lan, Little Loki would either kill them on the spot if they were weaker than it or hide to not be found by them if they were stronger than it.
But right now, Little Loki could not kill her nor hide from her, which made it in a really awkward situation.
After a few moments of tense situation that could only be felt between Instructor Mei Lan and Little Loki, Instructor Mei Lan finally giggled and asked: "Your ck kitten is really smart! Is thate out from ''that'' egg?"
"Ah? Yes, that''s right! Little Loki came out from ''that'' egg." Tang Li Xue replied honestly.
"Hm¡ Little Xue, you should be more careful, though. The PET that too smart is not good for its master. Who knows if it stabbed you from behind someday?!" Instructor Mei Lan deliberately warned Tang Li Xue with a stern tone.
Little Loki''s wary stare at Instructor Mei Lan turned extremely hostile in an instant, but there was a trace of panic and flustered as it looked at Tang Li Xue for a few moments.
"Ahahaha¡ Instructor Lan is really too wary. Little Loki is certainly very smart, but it still too little right now. I am sure I can nurture it to be a greatpanion like Yayater!" Tang Li Xue brushed off Instructor Mei Lan''s advice.
Little Loki felt really relieved when it heard Tang Li Xue''s words, but it still stared at Instructor Mei Lan with great hostility.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled when she saw the change in Little Loki''s expression.
Her advice and offending words before were all intentional to test Little Loki''s attitude to Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan also felt relief now, because she could read everything from Little Loki''s expression just now that it really cares for Tang Li Xue and did not have any intention of betraying her... at least for now.
If Little Loki acted as if it did not care or even attacked her without any shred of worry about Tang Li Xue''s personal opinion, then she would really need to make Tang Li Xue give up on nurturing this little sinister kitten at all cost.
After all Little Loki was not Yaya, who always acted without thinking!
Smart creatures like Little Loki always acted properly based on their mind after analyzing the situation carefully. Only when they felt panicked and afraid of losing something important that they would act out of their way.
One look with a trace of panic and flustered was enough for Instructor Mei Lan to tell how much Little Loki cared about Tang Li Xue.
Thankfully, the silent sh between the two smart creatures, Instructor Mei Lan and Little Loki, ended up peacefully this time.
No one knew about their silent sh, not even Tang Li Xue herself.
Instructor Mei Lan led Tang Li Xue, Hei Yinghao, and Bing Yi into the ssroom.
There were no Li Jing, Huang Hao, and Gan Aomiao in the ss today.
When Bing Yi asked Instructor Mei Lan about why Li Jing''s group was not attending today''s ss, Instructor Mei Lan answered that those three would be attending mixed sses from now on until they came back from the mission.
"All right! Stop asking about others! We will begin today''s lesson now!" Instructor Mei Lan shouted to them.
Chapter 302: Three Magic Treasures!
Chapter 302: Three Magic Treasures!
"Today, I will not teach you all about anything, but I will only tell the three of you the ABSOLUTE RULES you must obey no matter what happens in every situationter!" Instructor Mei Lan said as her expression turned really serious and even her tone became very stern.
The expressions of Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao also became really tense.
"First Rule! My order is always absolute! So, when I ordered you to do something, just do it as swiftly as you can in that instant without any dy! Do not say or ask anything unless I permit you to do so!
"Second Rule! Never leave farther than five steps from me unless I tell you to do so!
"Third Rule! Never talk, ask, or say anything to anyone even among yourselves unless I permit you to do it!
"Fourth Rule! If you have something important¡ I mean something REALLY REALLY IMPORTANT to tell me, then you can tell me using your [Telepathy] skill! Never say it out if I do not permit you to do so even if you only talk about it softly!"
"Fifth Rule! Never try to act alone without my permission!
"Sixth Rule! Outside of Myriad Foxes Academy, we are normal humans! Never tell or let anyone know about your identity as a Foxes! Not even if you meet the others from the Fox Race outside Myriad Foxes Academy!
"Seventh Rule...
¡..
Instructor Mei Lan''s absolute rules were really simple, but all of them were extremely important.
There were rules like ''never start a fight with humans, even if those humans were the ones who started the fight first, just ran away from them''!
''But if those humans still insisted on chasing or targeting us, you could eliminate them swiftly without leaving any evidence or trace behind!''
There were also rules like ''never trust anyone outside Myriad Foxes Academy other than our own team!''
There were almost thirty absolute rules, but Instructor Mei Lan mentioned them, again and again, to instill them deeply into the mind of her students.
After making sure that Tang Li Xue and the otherspletely remembered it by telling them to repeat the rules one by one, Instructor Mei Lan finally moved to the other lesson for today.
Instructor Mei Lan took out something from her space pouch and gave them the three items each.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao looked at the three items in front of them with expressions filled with puzzlement.
A folding hand fan, a traditional oilpaper umbre, and a ck cloak~!!!
Tang Li Xue knew this ck cloak would be used to cover their furry foxtail, and the hood would be used to cover their fox ears, but these folding hand fan and traditional oilpaper umbre¡
''I really do not understand! What the hell are these folding hand fan and traditional oilpaper umbre used for?!'' Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao thought at the same time, but they did not dare to ask Instructor Mei Lan about it.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at their constipated looks and took Bing Yi''s folding hand fan.
"Little Xue, can you set a defensive wall with your divine ability on the empty corner there?" Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue while pointed her finger at the right corner of the ssroom.
Tang Li Xue did not understand what Instructor Mei Lan want to do, but she still obeyed Instructor Mei Lan''s words and set a defensive wall with her [Energy Maniption] divine ability.
Instructor Mei Lan elegantly unfolded the folding hand fan and swiftly waved it in the direction of the defensive wall!
SWOOOSSSHHH~!!! TTTSSSSSSSSHH~~!!!
The defensive wall Tang Li Xue made was filled with many tiny holes in an instant!
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao dropped their jaws in shock and disbelief.
"Wha¡ What is just happening?!" Bing Yi murmured with a stunned expression.
"This... Is this the legendary Hidden Weapon?!" Tang Li Xue shouted with an excited tone.
Tang Li Xue ran to check on the defensive wall and Yaya also followed her from behind curiously.
Little Loki did not any sign of interest. It still did not move and onlyzilyying down on the top of Tang Li Xue''s desk.
"This is¡ ck needles? It is so corrosive! So these ck needles are poisonous!" Tang Li Xue said when she looked at the many ck needles pierced deeply onto the ssroom''s wall behind the defensive wall in amazement.
"Do not look down on this folding hand fan. This fan is actually a Magic Treasure with 9 Arrays. Not only it can shoot poisonous needles, but it also has a poisonous dagger hidden in it!" Instructor Mei Lan exined while closed the unfolding hand fan a bit, and the ck dagger tip emerged from inside it.
"When this fan is unfolded, it can also be used as a shield. The material used to make it is not fabric or paper, but Beast Lord''s skin, so it is very sturdy and not easy to be prated by any sharp weapon." Instructor Mei Lan returned the unfolding hand fan to Bing Yi.
Instructor Mei Lan took a traditional oilpaper umbre and exined again: "This umbre is the same. It cannot only be used as an umbre when opened, but it can also act as a shield too, and¡"
Instructor Mei Lan aimed the closed oilpaper umbre at the defensive wall once again and opened it!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
The defensive wall had shattered into dust!
Even the ssroom wall behind it has arge hole now!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue, Yaya, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao already ran a bit far away from the defensive wall.
''Holysh*t?! That is not a Hidden Weapon at all! Is that an RPG (Rocket Propeller Grenade)?!'' Tang Li Xue thought with a fearful look as she watched therge hole on the ssroom''s wall.
"This umbre also has Hidden Exploding Bullet. As you can see, you can use it to make a hole on the wall to escape, or you can also use it to take down arge number of crowds." Instructor Mei Lan continued her exnation while closed the umbre again.
"If you turned the handle in the clockwise direction, you can unsheathe the poisonous sword hidden inside the shaft." Instructor Mei Lan said, as she unsheathed the ck sword and showed it to Tang Li Xue and the others.
Tang Li Xue and the others watched at the poisonous sword with expressions filled with amazement again.
Instructor Mei Lan sheathed the ck sword back into the umbre and returned it again to Bing Yi, then she took the ck cloak now.
However, before Instructor Mei Lan exined about the ck cloak''s function, Hei Yinghao decided to ask with a curious tone: "Instructor Lan, we are from the prideful Beast Race, why do we need to use any weapons like humans?"
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently like always before¡ pped the back of Hei Yinghao''s head so hard and said: "Do you already forget the sixth rule? Outside of Myriad Foxes Academy, we are normal humans, and normal humans always fighting with weapons like this!"
"Uhhh¡ Instructor Lan, I do not think any normal humans will fight with hidden weapons like this¡ This is really too luxurious." Tang Li Xue also decided to say her opinion.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and replied: "That is why I said to never pick any fight without any proper reason. I even told you all to run away from any conflict."
"But luxurious weapons like these also have their own merit. For example, we can intimidate our enemies and said that we are from some powerful background to make them hesitate or they might be even giving up without fighting." Instructor Mei Lanughed with a cunning expression.
It seems the veteran Instructor Mei Lan already used this strategy so many times to confuse her enemies in the human world.
Tang Li Xue and the others nodded, and their expressions were filled with enlightenment.
"All right! Next is this ck cloak. This ck cloak is filled with protection arrays, so it is impervious to fire, water, and sharp weapons. It is also equipped with a wind resistance array, so you do not have to be afraid that it would get blown away by the wind, then your fox ears and foxtail get seen by the others. Also¡" Instructor Mei Lan patiently exined again.
Tang Li Xue and the others started to tense up again. They were looking forward to the amazing effect of this ck cloak.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled while injected some of her Vitality Energy into an array hidden in the ck cloak.
BBBWWWOOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
A pair of huge ck bat-like wings appeared behind Instructor Mei Lan in an instant, and she started to flying swiftly for a fewps inside the ssroom!
Instructor Mei Lan was flying really fast, leaving several ck shadows on her path!
"Wooooahhh~!!!?That is really cool!" Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao eximed in surprise and pped their hands excitedly when they saw Instructor Mei Lan flying.
As for Tang Li Xue, she already flew so many times when she was in [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya, so looking at Instructor Mei Lan flew in these huge ck bat-like wings did not excite her as much as the other two Magic Treasures with hidden weapons.
She could even use her [Energy Maniption] to create something and flew by riding on it. The feeling was not that different from flying with those huge ck bat-like wings.
After Instructor Mei Lan gracefullynded again in front of them, she continued her exnation: "If you inject your Vitality Energy into this ck cloak, you can activate the ck Wing Array, and you can fly very swiftly. But you must be really careful though since it would drain your Vitality Energy really fast. It is unsuitable for traveling in long-distance, so use it only when you want to escape quickly."
After exined everything, Instructor Mei Lan started to meticulously instruct them one by one on how to use the three Magic Treasures properly for a few hours before telling Tang Li Xue and the others about the mission they would carry onter.
Chapter 303: Troublesome B-Grade Mission!
Chapter 303: Troublesome B-Grade Mission!
"Like all of you already knew, D-grade mission is for a silver badge holder, C-grade mission is for a gold badge holder, B-grade mission is for tinum badge holder, and A-grade mission is for a jade badge holder. So, what I am about to do now is to carry you three so you three can increase your badge rank faster this way." Instructor Mei Lan reminded them.
"Usually, when I am carrying out the mission alone, I always take the A-grade mission. But since this is still your first time following me in carrying out my mission and we still need to adapt to each other, I am trying to reduce the mission grade to B. I also intentionally take the B-grade mission with the lowest risk." Instructor Mei Lan said with a strict tone. She also stared at them one by one with a solemn expression.
"I do not expect you all to do anything to help me inpleting this mission. I just want to see if you can follow all of my rules! If anyone of you cannot follow it or vite any of my rules, I will immediately kick you out after this mission!" After announcing her intention, Instructor Mei Lan took out the mission bamboo tube from her space pouch and gave it to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue tapped the mission bamboo tube onto her forehead, and the information about the mission rushed her mind in an instant.
This B-grade mission was¡ not really dangerous like what Instructor Mei Lan had already said, but it was very troublesome toplete!
Lin Family was one of the most renowned cultivator families in the Lightwind Continent.
Renowned cultivator families held less power than any empire, while any empire was under powerful sects'' control. This was the power order in Lightwind Continent!
Of course, it did not apply outside Lightwind Continent since there were many powerful empires outside Lightwind Continent. It was called the cultivator''s empire.
There were also cultivator families with much more powerful than even the cultivator''s empires called Sage Families.
But all of those were not important right now. The most important thing was ''The Lin Family does not hold that much power in Lightwind Continent''.
The reason why cultivator families like Lin Family were so feared in the Lightwind continent was because of their connection with the powerful sects!
For example, some of the older generation from the Lin Family managed to hold some important positions in the five virtuous sects, while some of their younger generations managed to be Core Disciples from those sects.
It made the five virtuous sects hold Lin Family in high regard and even protect them from any harm.
The most problematic part was this...
Some years ago, the Lin Family got an ancient treasure map and decided to search for it.
They sent tens of elders and many of their young generation to find the treasure, but the ruin where the treasure was buried had already be the Dragon''sir!
Well¡ Not really¡ As you all already know, there was no dragon in Immortal World.
The dragon race was one of the Mythical Beast races, so they only exist in Divine World.
It was more like Lizard''s Nest, but the ignorant humans in Immortal World always called Lizard Race as Dragon.
A huge battle between the Lin Family and a family of Lizard Race inevitably happened.
It was a really terrifying battlest for ten days and ten nights.
The family of Lizard Race almost wiped out. All their young children had died. The female lizard was crippled. Only the head-family, the male lizard, still remained strong even after defeating so much of Lin Family''s elders.
Lin Family lost so much in this terrifying battle too. They lost three-fourth of the people they sent there, but they managed to take almost all of the ancient treasures.
The ancient treasures they managed to find were quite good. But that was not the thing they want the most!
What was the most important thing the human race in Immortal World always sought?
Powerful Martial Art Manual!
The Ancient Martial Art Manual was the most important thingpared to any ancient treasure because no matter how strong the ancient treasure, it could only be used by one person, but the Ancient Martial Art Manual was different!
Any older generation or the younger generation could try to learn it!
With the powerful Ancient Martial Art Manuals, Lin Family could even try to rise and be a sect. Their family might even join five virtuous sects as the sixth virtuous sect sooner orter in the future.
Unfortunately, all of those were only a pipe dream now.
Because the Lin Family could only take half of the Ancient Martial Art''s scroll in that chaotic battle.
That male Lizard was also not a fool either. He knew perfectly what all of these greedy humans want and mustered hisst strength to take half of the Ancient Martial Art''s scroll before running away.
Of course, the Lin Family would never give up after all the sacrifices they had been made until now.
The Lin Family held the Female Lizard in custody right now, and they demanded to trade the crippled Female Lizard with the half of ancient scroll from the male Lizard!
The Lin Family was afraid that the male Lizard would ask for reinforcement, so they also asked for reinforcement from one of the five virtuous sects, the Oracle Mountain Sect.
The Lin Family promised to give the Oracle Mountain Sect half of ancient treasures and a copy of the Ancient Martial Art Manual, so the Oracle Mountain Sect went all out and sent many of their elders with the highest cultivation to help Lin Family.
Meanwhile, just like what the Lin Family had predicted. The male Lizard had already reported what had happened to the mainir of the Lizard Race and asked for reinforcement to help him take back the female lizard.
Lizard Race was known to have excessive pride even among all of the Beast Races because they believe that they were the true descendant of the Dragon Race.
They were always arrogant and tyrannical, so how could they take this kind of humiliation from the Human Race?!
Lizard Race sent tens of their Beast Lords or the [Rare] grade demonic beasts at once to tten the Lin Family once and for all!
If you ask, why did they not sent any Spirit Beast? It was all because the Spirit Beasts were grouped as the upper echelon, so they could not be easily deployed.
Do not think that the Spirit Beasts were the strongest in Immortal World and could do whatever they want!
The Human Race actually also have cultivators at the same power level as Spirit Beasts!
If they were all sent out to fight each other, the war would inevitably break between Beast Race and Human Race!
Both Beast Race and Human Race could not allow that to happen yet! Not when the dreadful Undead Race was still trying to conquer the entire Immortal World for themselves while both Beast Race and Human Race could only barely hold them off from advancing further.
However, it did not mean the Human Race and the Beast Race could not maneuver in the dark to topple each other from behind the scene.
For example, just like what Instructor Mei Lan and the others wanted to do right now.
The Intel Department of Foxes Race was the most advance amongst all the Beast Races because Fox Race could easily slip into the human society to look for crucial information.
ording to the Intel Department of Foxes Race, after they were tracing the origin and legend, they found that Ancient Martial Art Manual was far more horrible than what the Lin Family and Lizard Race had ever expected!
It was actually the Heaven-Rank Martial Art Manual!
If any human race managed to cultivate in that Heaven-Rank Martial Art Manual untilpletion, they would have the power to control the Law in the Immortal World!
The power to control the Law in the Immortal World was the true strength of Human God, which stood on par with their Beast God ([Ancient]-Grade Spirit Beast)!
The Ancient Martial Art Manual that can create the Human God¡ it was the worst nightmare for the Beast Race! It even far too horrible to imagine!
The reason why this mission was only at B-grade and not A-grade or even S-Grade was because Lizard Race already made their move first. All they need to do was to make sure the Ancient Martial Art scroll did not fall into Human Race''s hands!
In short, they need to take the Ancient Martial Art scroll from both Lin Family''s hand and Lizard Race''s hand, then destroy it as soon as possible!
They were also permitted to use any means at their disposal!
They could help Lizard Race to destroy the Lin Family while taking half of the Ancient Martial Art scroll from both of them and destroying it.
They could also choose to sneak into the Lin Family and Lizard Race to steal the half of Ancient Martial Art scroll from both of them, then destroying it.
However, they have to make sure that the Ancient Martial Art scroll should definitely be destroyed in the end!
¡..
Tang Li Xue sucked a deep breath after processing the information from the mission bamboo tube in her mind, while she gave the mission bamboo tube to Bing Yi.
Bing Yi took the mission bamboo tube and tapped it onto her forehead too before giving it to Hei Yinghao.
After tapping the mission bamboo tube onto his forehead, Hei Yinghao wanted to give it back to Instructor Mei Lan. But Yaya swiftly took it, and she tapped it onto her forehead too before giving it back to Instructor Mei Lan.
It took all of them a few minutes to process the information from the mission bamboo tube.
Chapter 304: Wind Riding Bird!
Chapter 304: Wind Riding Bird!
"So... Instructor Lan, what is our n to take that Ancient Martial Art Scroll?" Tang Li Xue asked in puzzlement.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao nodded their heads and stared at Instructor Mei Lan too.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue thought to use her [Ethereal Form] to infiltrate both the Lin Family''s residence and Lizard Race''s temporary camp, then stole the Ancient Martial Art Scroll from them.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan knew exactly what her student was thinking about right now.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled while nced at Tang Li Xue and said: "Do you really think that you can easily slip into their ce with your divine ability and steal the Ancient Martial Art Scroll from them? How naive! Why do you think the Lin Family asked help from Oracle Mountain Sect and not from the strongest sect in Lightwind Continent, the Immortal Sword Sect?"
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao shook their heads simultaneously.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and continued her exnation: "Because the Oracle Mountain Sect is the sect specialized in Feng Shui and divination. In terms of defending a base, Oracle Mountain Sect is much more superior to the Immortal Sword Sect. The expert from Oracle Mountain Sect can set formation or array to confuse and kill their enemies."
"Meanwhile, Lizard Race always thought they have the strongest body in Immortal World since they believe they are the true descendant of Dragon Race. Where do you think they would store their most important thing to prevent it from getting stolen?" Instructor Mei Lan smirked at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was stunned silly by Instructor Mei Lan''s statement.
Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva loudly and said with a nervous tone: "Don''t¡ Don''t tell me they store it inside their bodies? Hahaha¡ Would they really swallow that half of Ancient Martial Art Scroll?! What if they identally digest it? Tha¡ That is impossible, right?"
Instructor Mei Lanughed while replied: "Correct! One of them would definitely swallow it and store it inside their body! How can you steal it? As for identally digest it, you do not need to worry about that. Lizard Race may be arrogant and tyrannical, but they are not a bunch of fools."
"It''s almost time. Today''s ss is over now! Let''s go!" Instructor Mei Lan announced to all of them suddenly.
"Eh? But¡ how about our strategy or n?" Hei Yinghao asked in puzzlement.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and told them: "How can we make the sure n or effective strategy if we do not even look at the situation there? We will go there and see the situation first before making the next decision."
"Eh? What? We are going to carry on the mission now?! I thought we will at least depart tomorrow morning!" Tang Li Xue said as she chased after Instructor Mei Lan, who already went out of the ssroom with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
The sleeping Little Loki already jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder while Yaya alreadynded on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head and satzily there.
They all went out from the Education Department building and rode Instructor Mei Lan''s flying disc, then flying to the east part of Myriad Foxes Academy.
"Instructor Lan, where are we going now? This direction is¡ not to the Space Gate Hall, so we are not heading out of Myriad Foxes Academy?" Bing Yi asked with a skeptical tone.
"We will go to the stable first to pick your travelingpanion first before going out." Instructor Mei Lan answered with a short reply.
"EEEHHHH?! OUR TRAVELING COMPANION?! WHO?!" Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao shouted in puzzlement.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at their simultaneous reaction, but she did not exin it further.
Instructor Mei Lan''s flying disc was really fast, so it only took them a few minutes to reach the east part of Myriad Foxes Academy.
There were many farms and stables with different creatures on the east part of Myriad Foxes Academy.
Right now, Tang Li Xue and the others finally knew where their foods came from.
Instructor Mei Lannded her flying disc and brought her three students into one of the stables.
Tang Li Xue and the others thought Instructor Mei Lan brought them here to buy some horses so they could ride them to travelter, but they were wrong.
This stable was not for the horse!
"This is¡" Tang Li Xue murmured in amazement when she saw many big birds with long legs and necks lined up neatly in the stable.
"They are called Wind Riding Bird. They can run faster than a horse on thend, fly faster than an eagle in the air, and swim faster than a dolphin in the water." Instructor Mei Lan said as she patted the feathery neck of Wind Riding Bird.
"The most amazing about them is not their speed but their stamina. They can run, fly, and swim for more than two weeks without rest! Oh¡ but be sure to not push them that far or they will die. You can let them run, fly, and swim for a week non-stop, but you must give them rest for at least one night." Instructor Mei Lan patiently exined to Tang Li Xue and the others.
"Woaaaahhhh¡ Not only they can run on thend, but they can also swim in the water and fly in the sky?! That is really amazing!" Hei Yinghao approached one of the Wind Riding Bird and stared at it with glittering eyes.
Tang Li Xue also stared strangely at the Wind Riding Bird, but the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.
''What the hell?! This¡ Isn''t this bird looks identical with choco** from FF?!'' Tang Li Xue thought.
"Listen up! This Wind Riding Bird is really smart, and they can save you in a crucial moment! They are not only your mount but your important futurepanion, so treat them well! Pick one that suited you the most, then tell me! I will teach you how to tame them properlyter." Instructor Mei Lan instructed them.
The Wind Riding Birds here have many different colors and temperaments, so Instructor Mei Lan told them to choose carefully.
Hei Yinghao decided to choose the ck one with a fierce look and temperament.
Even Tang Li Xue doubted that Hei Yinghao could tame it properlyter, but she did not say anything to him.
Bing Yi chose the azure-colored Wind Riding Bird with a docile temperament.
Tang Li Xue looked at the Wind Riding Birds in the stable one by one.
She was interested in the pink-colored Wind Riding Bird.
This pink colored Wind Riding Bird looked active and easy to get along with, so Tang Li Xue decided to choose it, but when Tang Li Xue approached it¡
"Nyaaaa~!!! Meow¡ Nyan~ Nya~!" Little Loki shook its furry head, then pointed at the white-colored Wind Riding Bird.
"Eh? Little Loki? You want me to choose that one? Why?" Tang Li Xue asked in puzzlement.
"Nyanya~!" Little Loki pointed its tiny paw at Tang Li Xue.
"Because it suits me the most? Really?" Tang Li Xue asked again with a skeptical tone.
"Nyaaaan~!" Little Loki put a smug expression and patted its furry chest with its tiny paw as if it was saying ''believe in me''.
Tang Li Xue pondered carefully for a few moments while observed the white-colored Wind Riding Bird carefully.
Actually, the white-colored Wind Riding Bird''s temperament was too cold and reserved for Tang Li Xue''s taste.
However, Tang Li Xue still decided to follow Little Loki''s suggestion and choose the white-colored Wind Riding Bird in the end.
Little Loki also sighed in relief, and it wiped its furry forehead after Tang Li Xue had chosen the white-colored Wind Riding Bird.
Pink colored Wind Riding Bird was not bad, but it has an identical personality to Tang Li Xue.
Little Loki could imagine the endless trouble these two would bring if they were together. That was why it urged Tang Li Xue to choose the white one.
The white-colored Wind Riding Bird might be looked cold and reserved, but it was actually a deep thinker type with an analytical and detail-oriented mind.
It would never do anything rash and would certainly prove its own worth in the critical moment.
In short, the white-colored Wind Riding Bird was the opposite type of Tang Li Xue, and its temperament was more identical to Instructor Mei Lan.
After choosing their own Wind Riding Bird, Instructor Mei Lan gave each of them some purple-colored carrots.
"This fruit is called Spirit Dew Cucumber. It is the favorite food of all Wind Riding Birds. They never eat this in this stable before, so you will be its master sooner orter if you give this Spirit Dew Cucumber every day while training them to obey your order." Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue and the others.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao gave a Spirit Dew Cucumber to the Wind Riding Bird they have chosen, and their Wind Riding Bird became much friendlier to them.
"All right! You all can put them into your Medium-Rank space pouch, but remember to feed them Spirit Dew Cucumber every day. You just need to give them one Spirit Dew Cucumber every day and do not forget to train them a bit to follow your every order. You can punish them by not giving any Spirit Dew Cucumber in a day if they dare to disobey your words." Instructor Mei Lan instructed them again.
After finished their business in this Wind Riding Bird''s stable, Instructor Mei Lan brought all of them to the Space Gate Hall.
Chapter 305: The Air Raid!
Chapter 305: The Air Raid!
On the top of the tall misty mountain peak that rose to the height of twenty thousand meters, the Lin Family''s private residence was located here for hundreds of years ago.
Although the Lin Family was not as powerful as any empires with hundreds of thousand armies at their disposal, but their foundation was very solid, since they have many strong connections with the Five Virtuous Sects.
Something like gettingpletely wiped out by any powerhouse was unthinkable for the Lin Family, but now...
The atmosphere inside the hall was very tense.
The temperature on the top mountain peak should be quite cold, but many elders and the young generations of the Lin Family were sweating profusely in anxiousness right now.
"Family Head Lin, you do not need to worry! The protection array from Oracle Mountain Sect is imprable. We even use our Demon Subduing Pole as the eye of the array. We will even make those stupid demonic beasts regret it!" The elder with long white eyebrows from Oracle Mountain Sect reassured Family Head Lin.
"That is right! The only way to destroy our array is to find the Demon Subduing Pole first and destroy it. Forget about destroying it, those stupid demonic beasts probably cannot even find it! Hahaha..." The old grandma from Oracle Mountain Sect added.
With Lin Family''s connectionwork, how could they not find a group of giant lizards flying straight toward their ce?!
"Thank you very much, fellow Daoists of Oracle Mountain Sect! I am counting on you all to protect our home." Family Head Lin said while saluted politely to all the elders of Oracle Mountain Sect.
But in his heart, heined: ''Of course, you all are not worried! Because this ce is not your home!''
The elders of the Oracle Mountain Sect already arrived at Lin Family''s private residence yesterday at noon, and they immediately set the protection array along with trapping formation in one night.
What they need to do right now was only to wait for the giant lizard from Lizard n toe and trapped them in their formation.
All of them waited patiently for several hours in this grandiose hall of Lin Family''s residence.
However, in the middle of the night, the giant lizard from Lizard n finally reached this Lin Family''s residence!
There were thirty flying giant lizards in total.
Although, Lizard Race was known for its arrogant and tyrannical temperament, but they certainly have more than enough strength to back it up!
The thirty flying giant lizards were flying much faster than any modern jet ne, but they could still stay neatly in V formation.
It was truly a spectacr sight underneath the colorful sea of stars, but their tremendous killing intent was enough to make anyone that saw them shaken in fright and horror.
Some of the giant flying lizards sneered when they saw the majestic golden barrier protecting the Lin Family''s residence.
Countless abstruse golden runes were rotating slowly on the surface of the majestic golden barrier made it looked even more unfathomable.
One of the giant flying lizards sneered mockingly and said: "Hehehe¡ Other stupid humans who try to challenge the might of our Lizard Race with this kind of toy! They must be thinking of trapping us and killing us slowly one by one now! How naive!"
"Aiya~~! I hope their formation is strong enough for us to y around for a while or this will be really boring! This is my first outing after five thousand years, so I do not want to go back home again in one or two days." The other giant flying lizard replied in a joking manner.
"Bwahahaha¡ You are hoping too much from those useless humans! It would be such a great achievement if their pathetic formation can reach a thousandth of the great formation made by the Fox Race." The other oneughed it off.
"All Units, we already close to our target now, so be more serious! Remember, even a tiger always used its full strength when it hunts a rabbit! Us, the Lizard Race, is the true descendant of the Dragon Race, so you better not do something to embarrass our ancestor! We will crush them with our full strength!" The leader of the giant flying lizards who flew at the most front shouted.
The leader of the giant flying lizards has the biggest size amongst all the giant flying lizards here.
It has thick brown scales covered its giant body and a pair of really wide bat-like wings, but the most eye-catching was its pair of blood-colored crimson eyes, which shone brightly like a pair of stars in the middle of the night.
"Crush them! For the glory of our Lizard Race!"
"Crush them! For the glory of our Lizard Race!"
"Crush them! For the glory of our Lizard Race!"
All the giant flying lizards roared simultaneously.
If Fox Race educated their young generation with knowledge like in the University, then Lizard Race trained their young generation strictly like Military School.
"Change! I Formation!" The leader of giant flying lizardsmanded them.
It only took them 0.2 seconds to change from V formation to I formation.
When they flew above the golden barrier, the leader of giant flying lizards shouted itsmand again: "Lock the target in 3 seconds! 3¡ 2¡ 1¡ SHOT!"
Thirty giant flying lizards aimed their full-powered divine ability on one point of the golden barrier!
Their precision was terrifyingly urate! Their timing also perfect!
It was as if they were already trained in doing these countless times before!
Even the modern jet fighter could not reach the level of uracy like them.
EVIL FLAME!
ACID BLAST!
GRAVITY BOMB!
EXTERMINATION BURST!
¡..
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
The devastating explosion wiped everything on several tens of miles in radius to dust!
Trees, grasses, bushes, the river, theke, even the beasts werepletely erased, leaving only barrennd of nothingness!
Thirty destructive divine abilities fired at once with the same timing on the same spot!
The effect was truly unimaginable!
The golden barrier did not look that majestic anymore because the countless shining golden runes already dimmed a lot by the devastating explosion, and there were several thin hair sized cracks at its surface now.
"This¡ How¡ How¡ How could it be?! How could they be this strong?!" Some elders of the Oracle Mountain Sect already stuttered in panic.
"They¡ They are too strong for us to handle! This¡ Isn''t it better if we retreat now? It is not worth it to defend Lin Family''s ce with our lives!" The old grandma from Oracle Mountain Sect shouted in fear.
"No! You¡ How could you leave us just like that?! You already promise to protect us!" The Lin Family Head also shouted back in an agitated tone.
"EVERYONE! CALM DOWN! If we are going out and scatter now, those cruel demonic beasts would certainly hunt us one by one! What we can do right now is onlybined our strength to defend this ce! Everyone! Channel all your Qi to the Demon Subduing Pole to strengthen the protection formation! We will start the trapping array too now!" The elder with long white eyebrows shouted to calm down the crowds.
All the people from Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect awake from their panicked state and started to channel their Qi profusely into the Demon Subduing Pole in the middle of the hall!
The golden barrier started to recover to its majestic state once more.
All the thin cracks also vanished from its surface, and the dim runes began to shining brighter.
"Oh? It seems they started to consume their own strength to restore that barrier. Aiya~! This is so disappointing! That fragile thing will probably break in two or three attacks. Hei, you all... Want to bet on how many attacks that fragile barrier can hold? I bet ten vitality stones for two attacks!" The one of flying giant lizardszily said.
"They should have many people in that big mansion. I think they can hold another three attacks. I bet fifteen vitality stones for three attacks!" The other flying giant lizards replied.
"Interesting¡ Ten vitality stones for three attacks!"
"I am poor right now, so I will only bet five vitality stones for two attacks!"
"I also bet fifteen vitality stones for three attacks!"
¡..
All the people inside the Lin Family''s residence would probably puke out a few mouthfuls of blood if they could hear what these flying giant lizards were talking about right now.
"Turn back! Prepare for the second attack!" The leader of flying giant lizards shouted again with a stern tone.
"Yes, Leader!" The other flying giant lizards replied simultaneously.
All of them already flew past above the Lin Family''s residence, but they turned back and flew toward the Lin Family''s residence once again.
Their speed did not even decrease when they turned back, and their neat formation looked so solid that it did not even look messy for a single moment even when they were joking with each other!
In modern terms, they were basically the well-organized flying tank, which not only could take any hits with their hard scales but also strikes harder than any units with their destructive divine abilities.
They also have perfect timing and great uracy to back them up!
When the thirty flying giant lizards wanted tounch their second attack toward the Lin Family''s residence, there were four people in ck cloaks riding on the flying birds approached fast toward the Lin Family''s residence too.
"This is bad! It seems those stupid humans underestimated the Lizard Race too much, so they only set oneyer of defense formation. Change of n! We willnd here now before those lizards find us!" Instructor Mei Lan said to her students.
Chapter 306: Tang Li Xues New Task!
Chapter 306: Tang Li Xue''s New Task!
Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the others made their Wind Riding Birdnded on the hill about one hundred miles away from Lin Family''s residence.
"We do not have much time! We must save Lin Family''s residence now before itpletely copsed! Little Xue, take this Array Strengthening Stone!" Instructor Mei Lan said with a solemn expression as she threw a white fist-sized cube to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue easily caught the Array Strengthening Stone that Instructor Mei Lan has thrown to her.
She wanted to ask many things, but she remembered Instructor Mei Lan''s first rule to never talk or ask without permission, so she could only wait for Instructor Mei Lan''s further instruction.
"You only need to slip into Lin Family''s residence with your stealth-type divine ability and throw this Array Strengthening Stone onto the eye of the protection formation to strengthen it. You can go now!"?Instructor Mei Lan concluded her instruction and waved her hand signaled Tang Li Xue to go.
''What?! That''s it?! How the hell should I exin to the people guarding insideter?! Should I just say: ''Tehe~ I identally get lost and arrive here, so I decided to help you all?'' The heck! They will never believe that!'' Tang Li Xue thought dumbfoundedly.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply and ordered once more: "What are you waiting for? Go now!"
Of course, this was actually Instructor Mei Lan''s first test to Tang Li Xue to see if Tang Li Xue could handle the situation properly.
Amongst the three of her students, Tang Li Xue has the most life-saving skills.
[Ethereal Form], [Twin Moons], Deep-Blue me of Pride, [Divine Possession] with Yaya, [War Goddess Mode]¡
In short, Instructor Mei Lan nned to train and use Tang Li Xue more than Bing Yi and Hei Yinghaoter in her mission.
She urged Tang Li Xue to help Lin Family out from their predicament anyway, so she was 100% sure that the Lin Family would never try to kill or hurt Tang Li Xue even if Tang Li Xue said something wrong to themter.
Tang Li Xue could only puff her cheek and pouted in displeasure, but she still obeyed Instructor Mei Lan''s order and activated her [Ethereal Form] after storing her white-colored Wind Riding Bird into her medium-rank space pouch.
Her slender figure turned invisible in an instant, and she used the [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dash as fast as she could toward the Lin Family''s residence.
Meanwhile, the thirty giant flying lizards in the sky already flew above the Lin Family''s residence again and already released all of their incredibly destructive divine abilities once more!
Their timing and uracy were perfect like always!
''Yaya!'' Tang Li Xue whispered with their mental connection.
Yaya sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head like usual. She nodded her head with a serious expression on her cute tiny face.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
A devastating secondbined attack struck right at the same spot as the firstbined attack on the golden barrier for the second time!
The terrifying explosion shockwave started to wipe out everything on several tens of miles in radius!
[Shockwave Impact]!
[Shockwave Impact]: The power to create or control the sharp change of pressure caused by the wind, air, explosion, or sound.
Right at this moment, only Tang Li Xue waspletely unaffected under the effect of Yaya''s [Shockwave Impact].
She could still move freely and swiftly with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], so she kept heading straight to Lin Family''s residence.
With her [Ethereal Form], the invisible Tang Li Xue easily passed through the golden barrier.
However, the scene in front of her eyes was not the luxurious mansion of the Lin Family, but the forest filled with thick fog.
What a bunch of fools! What is the use in putting the illusion array inside the protection barrier?! Thankfully I still wear my ring ne, so I ampletely unaffected by any illusion.'' Tang Li Xueined in her mind.
But all of these could not be fully med on the people from Oracle Mountain Sect.
Because they nned to wear out the Lizard Race first by baiting them to continuously attacks the protection barrier before trapping them in the illusion array and kill them one by one.
The people from Oracle Mountain Sect always thought the Lizard Race would never do something rash because they held the female lizard as a hostage.
Unfortunately, they werepletely wrong.
The Lizard Race motto was to never negotiate with enemies, especially with the cunning and treacherous Human Race in particr!
You held one of the people from my race as a hostage?! So what? I will tten your home and sent all of your people to theherworld to apany her!
When the male lizard asked for the reinforcement from Lizard Race, he already knew too that they would never help him to retrieve his beloved one from those humans, but at the very least, the people from Lizard Race could help his beloved one free from all of her suffering as the human''s prisoner.
¡..
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as usual when she watched Tang Li Xue manage to enter the Lin Family''s residence.
"Let''s go!" Instructor Mei Lan said to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao stared at each other in confusion.
They thought they would only need to wait for Tang Li Xue to finish her task first before proceeding to the next move, but it seemed Instructor Mei Lan already nned their next n since the very start when she gave Tang Li Xue the task.
"Instructor Lan, where are we going? What about Little Xue?" Hei Yinghao could not hold it anymore and ask Instructor Mei Lan with a soft voice.
Instructor Mei Lan red coldly at Hei Yinghao, made him shrugged his head timidly in guilt.
"This is your first offense. I will kick you back and never bring you with me again if you do the second offense!" Instructor Mei Lan warned sternly.
Hei Yinghao timidly nodded his head.
"You do not need to worry. Little Xue is quite dependable. She also has Yaya and that ck kitten with her, so she should be all right."?Instructor Mei Lan said to assure Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi.
"Little Xue already has her own role to y in this stage. We should make our move to get into our own role too." Instructor Mei Lan smiled mysteriously.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi still did not understand, so they could only stare at Instructor Mei Lan in puzzlement.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at them, but she did not bother to exin anything as she stored her own green-colored Wind Riding Bird into her mid-rank space pouch.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi also stored their Wind Riding Bird and quickly followed Instructor Mei Lan closely from behind.
Instructor Mei Lan moved swiftly to descend from the hill and proceed to head toward the south.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi did not realize it, but Instructor Mei Lan actually used her sound-type divine ability as a sonar to detect everything around the area clearly.
"It should be around here¡" Instructor Mei Lan murmured.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi felt really curious about what Instructor Mei Lan wanted to find, but they could not ask it because Instructor Mei Lan still did not permit them to say anything.
"There! Be sure to follow closely behind me!" Instructor Mei Lan told Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi as she increased her speed even more.
Not long after that, the three of them entered the valley, and Instructor Mei Lan started to climb swiftly upward from the valley until she reached the edge of the cliff.
Hei Yinghao has stronger physical strength so he could follow Instructor Mei Lan closely without any difficulty, but Bing Yi faced so much difficulty since her physical strength was the lowest among them.
After the three of them climbed onto the edge of the cliff, they saw a giant lizard sat there while staring in the direction of Lin Family''s residence with a sad expression.
This giant lizard was identical to the western dragon, and it has crystal-like scales covered its giant body.
Its scales have the same color as its eyes. All of it was shone dimly with grey color.
"Hi, Respectable Lizard!" Instructor Mei Lan greeted the giant lizard with her sweet voice.
The giant lizard woke up from its daze when it heard Instructor Mei Lan''s sweet voice.
RRROOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRR~!!!
The giant lizard roared full of anger when it saw Instructor Mei Lan and the others.
"DIE HUMANS!" The giant lizard cursed loudly as it brandished its big sharp w toward them.
"Wait! I am not human!" Instructor Mei Lan shouted back while uncovered her ck hood.
The giant lizard''s big w paused on midair when it looked at a pair of ck fox ears on the top of Instructor Mei Lan''s head.
"You two, open your hood too!" Instructor Mei Lan ordered Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi nodded and opened their hood too to show their fox ears to the giant lizard.
"You three are the foxes from Fox Race?! What are you doing here?!" The giant lizard widened itsrge eyes in surprise and asked with a hoarse voice.
The hostile aura from the giant lizard had vanished, and it lowered its vignce, but it did not mean the giant lizard trusted Instructor Mei Lan and the otherspletely.
In Beast Race''s circle, the Fox Race was well known for its cleverness and the urate information they held.
Many beasts from Beast Race bought the information from Fox Race or asked Fox Race to do something for them with expensive payment.
This was also the reason why the mission hall in Myriad Foxes Academy always had so many important missions posted there.
Instructor Mei Lan put her gentle smile again and said: "Respectable Lizard Lord, the reinforcements from your race are really powerful, but you should already know that they would never help you rescue your partner, right?"
The giant lizard squinted itsrge eyes in suspicion and replied: "I already know it, so?"
Instructor Mei Lanughed and said again with the sweet enchanting voice like a devil: "What if I am saying that I can help you save your partner from that human base?"
The giant lizard: ''?!''
The giant lizard widened its eyes in surprise as its breath turned heavy, and it murmured: "You¡ You can really help me save my beloved one from there?! You¡ You are not lying, right?"
Chapter 307: Now What?!
Chapter 307: Now What?!
"Of course, I am not lying! Everyone should already know it, right? The Fox Race never deceives any Beast Race. We only deceive Human Race." Instructor Mei Lan replied to reassured the giant lizard.
The giant lizard took a deep breath to regain itsposure and murmured with a doubtful tone again while stared in the direction of the Lin Family''s Residence: "But¡ Is it really possible?"
"Do you think it''s already toote? Because your friends from Lizard Race willpletely destroy that human base in a moment?" Instructor Mei Lan chuckled while asked back.
The giant lizard thought for a while and nodded its giant head to answer Instructor Mei Lan''s question.
"You do not need to worry. That human base will certainly not get destroyed today. But I still need your promise on our payment if we somehow managed to rescue yourpanion from thereter. As you already know, we, the foxes from Fox Race, never do anything for free. You can rest reassured since we will only ept the payment after we managed to rescue yourpanionter." Instructor Mei Lan tried to persuade the giant lizard again.
The giant lizard hesitated for a while again before gnashed its sharp fangs to firm its resolve and said with a tone filled with sorrow: "Respectable Lady of Fox Race, please¡ please help my beloved one out from the grasp of those cruel humans! All of my children have been killed by them... I... I have no one anymore... I actually nned to kill myself after my beloved one diedter."
"But your words have given me a glimmer of hope¡ I¡ I can pay you with anything I have! I can give you my life! You can take any part of my body or even make me your mount if you want it! SO¡ PLEASE¡ Please¡ Save my beloved one!" The giant lizard lowered its head until it touched the ground and begged Instructor Mei Lan.
It would take enormous courage for the prideful and arrogant Lizard Race to bow and beg with teary eyes like this.
Not to mention Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao, even the usual sadist Instructor Mei Lan felt a bit touched at the giant lizard''s love and sincerity to its female partner.
"You do not need to give me any of your body parts or be my mount as payment. I only want half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual you take from the Lin Family before. It should be still in your possession, right?" Instructor Mei Lan inquired to the giant lizard.
"That half of Ancient Martial Art Manual? I still have it with me since Lizard Race did not want it. What do you want it for? That thing ispletely useless for a beast like us!" The giant lizard asked in disbelief.
The giant lizard thought Instructor Mei Lan would ask for something exorbitant, but she only asked for a useless thing like the half of Ancient Martial Art Manual.
For Human Race, all of the Ancient Martial Art Manuals were priceless treasures. But for Beast Race, those things were nothing more than trashy dpidated paper, which more useless than even toilet paper.
"This is something rted to our mission this time. So, do you agree with my condition or not?" Instructor Mei Lan asked with a stern tone.
"Of¡ Of course, I agree with it! This trash is useless for me anyway. You can take it right now¡ Do you really only want this thing? You... You will not lie to me, will you? You will definitely save my beloved one, right?" The giant lizard asked in disbelief. It also opened its giant mouth and spewed out half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual onto its w, then offered to Instructor Mei Lan.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao dropped their jaws in surprise and thought: ''It really stored that thing inside its body?! I¡ I thought Instructor Lan only guessed it blindly before!''
Instructor Mei Lan dly took half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual from the giant lizard and threw it into her space pouch while said: "You do not need to worry. You only need to wait here for a few days. We will escort your partner back here. But you must know that we cannot guarantee her condition because we still do not know what those humans do to your partner before, so... you must prepare yourself and do not put your hopes too high. You should have already know the human''s cruelty, right?"
The giant lizard nodded and murmured: "I¡ I already know it¡ I would be already satisfied if I can see or talk to her onest time. I would be d too, even if you only bring her dead body back to me. At the very least, I can get buried together with herter."
Instructor Mei Lan nodded to the giant lizard and stared in the direction of Lin Family''s residence too.
She was waiting for Tang Li Xue toplete the task.
¡..
¡
.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~~!!!
This was the thirdbined attackunched by the thirty flying giant lizards from the night sky.
The golden barrier already filled with cracks, and some parts of it already copsed.
It certainly could not take any more devastatingbined strike from those thirty flying giant lizards!
Tang Li Xue also realized that she almost ran out of time.
Currently, Tang Li Xue already broke out from the illusion array and managed to enter the Lin Family''s residence.
"Damn it! This is not residence! This is definitely the grand pce! How the hell can I find the eye of protection formation in the ce as big as this?!" Tang Li Xueined, but her movement did not slow down at all.
She already fully utilized her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to run around and her [Extrasensory Perception] to detect everything around her, but she still did not have any clue about where she must heading right now.
Little Loki, who sat on Tang Li Xue''s shoulder, was in a dilemma too right now.
It could just have pinpointed the location they should be heading to Tang Li Xue with its paw right now, but Little Loki also realized that it would not make Tang Li Xue grow if it helped her each time she face any trouble.
In the end, Little Loki decided not to help Tang Li Xue unless she faced life-threatening danger.
However, Little Loki still chose to at least give Tang Li Xue a little help¡
"Meoooww~! Nyaa¡ Nyaaa~!" Little Loki meowed while patted at Tang Li Xue''s shoulder, then tapped its paw onto its forehead.
"What? I should calm myself first?! Do not feel anxious and think carefully? Little Loki, we are running out of time right now. If we did not strengthen the barrier soon, we would be ttened along with this ce!" Tang Li Xue said with a worried tone, but she immediately remembered something.
Tang Li Xue already decided to find some people and asked them about it, but all the people she met were only lowly servants, so they did not know anything useful.
"Ah, you are right! Why should I search for it by myself?!" Tang Li Xue said as she pped her forehead.
Tang Li Xue summoned out her [Golden Winged Serpent] and her perfect copy.
She also asked Yaya and white Wind Riding Bird to help her search for the eye of protection formation.
Little Loki shook its furry head in disappointment, but it did not say anything anymore to help Tang Li Xue.
"There!" Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering brighter when her perfect copy detect many people inside the center hall with her [Extrasensory Perception].
Tang Li Xue urged her perfect copy to approach that center hall as soon as possible.
The situation in this center hall was not looking good.
All the people from Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect were already thrown into panic and chaos.
They shouted at each other in anger and fright. They also med each other uglily.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still in [Ethereal Form] too, so no one inside the center hall realized that she silently moved closer to the eye of the protective barrier.
''What is that thing? A golden pir? It seems that golden pir is the eye of the barrier!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought while she examined the golden pir carefully.
When her perfect copy had moved closer enough, the real Tang Li Xue used [Swap] skill to exchange her position with her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue took out the Array Strengthening Stone from her space pouch while canceled her [Ethereal Form] at the same time.
"Who?! Who are you?! What are you doing here?!" Some people who guarded the Demon Subduing Pole closely shouted in surprise.
But it was already toote for them to stop Tang Li Xue since she already threw the Array Strengthening Stone as hard as she could toward the Demon Subduing Pole in the middle of the center hall.
WWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNGGGG~!!!
The Array Strengthening Stone started to resonance with the Demon Subduing Pole and let out a loud voice!
In that instant, the dying protection barrier was awakened once more!
All the cracks were restored in the blink of an eye!
Even the copsed part started to regenerate rapidly!
The almost copsed protection barrierpletely regained its former glory in only a few seconds!
However, the people in the center hall were already in panic and chaos right now, so the moment the guards shouted, they already charged angrily toward Tang Li Xue to catch her.
"Holysh*t! These ungrateful people! Ie here with so much difficulty to help them, but here they tried to kill me now!" Tang Li Xue grumbled softly.
Although she knew that they were only doing this in the spur of the moment, because they have not yet realized the golden barrier had already been restored by her, but she still felt really ufortable when more than thirty Foundation Establishment Experts and some Core Formation Experts tried to catch her.
''I already fulfill the task given by Instructor Lan, but now what?! What I need to do now?! I cannot just let these people catch me just like that, right?'' Tang Li Xue''s mind spun faster to think a way out.
Chapter 308: Envoy from Immortal Sword Sect!
Chapter 308: Envoy from Immortal Sword Sect!
Two Core Formation Experts from Oracle Mountain Sect already swiftly appeared behind Tang Li Xue.
Just when they almost seized Tang Li Xue, she immediately activated her [Ethereal Form] again to avoid them.
Tang Li Xue took a few steps back before canceled her [Ethereal Form] to make herself appear in everyone''s view.
Her consecutive movements made her seemed as if she moved too fast for them to see and suddenly appeared behind them.
It made them even warier toward her, and they started to hesitate.
"Halt! I am not your enemy! Look! I even help you restore the protection barrier!" Tang Li Xue quickly said to stop them from attacking her again while pointed her index finger upward.
All of the people in the center hall nced at the golden protection barrier above them and found that it was alreadypletely fixed. The golden barrier had regained its former glory again¡ No, the barrier should be much stronger than before since it was already reinforced by the Array Strengthening Stone.
BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
This was the fourthbined attack from the thirty flying giant lizards from the sky, but unlike before, the golden barrier only rippled a bit under their devastatingbined attack.
There was not even a bit of crack on its surface this time!
Most people in this center hall were already exhausted because they already injected so much Qi onto the Demon Subduing Pole to try to restore the golden barrier twice before.
They already knew how hard to restore this golden barrier, but this ck-cloaked person could even strengthen it to this degree!
They did not say anything to Tang Li Xue. They stared at Tang Li Xue with eyes filled with gratitude and admiration.
Even the expressions of the two arrogant Core Formation Experts from Oracle Mountain Sect turned friendlier and gentler when they looked at Tang Li Xue now.
"Young friend¡ We, the people from Oracle Mountain Sect, express our gratitude for your help. I am Elder Wu Ming of Oracle Mountain Sect. Young friend, can you tell us your name and where do youe from?" One of the two Core Formation Experts from Oracle Mountain Sect, the old elder with long eyebrows, Elder Wu Ming, asked Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s head started to hurt when she thought about how she could introduce herself.
But her topaz blue eyes immediately brightened like a pair of blue stars when a brilliant idea came into her mind.
Tang Li Xue took out a jade insignia from her space pouch and showed it to everyone in the center hall.
"That emblem is¡?!" Elder Wu Ming widened his eyes in surprise when he saw the jade insignia in Tang Li Xue''s grasp.
"No way?! So, you are from¡" The other Core Formation Experts from Oracle Mountain Sect pointed at the jade insignia in shock too.
It was the jade insignia with ''The Elder of Immortal Sword Sect'' carved on its surface. There was also the ''Yang'' word written at the center of the jade insignia.
"That is right! I am the Honorary Elder of Immortal Sword Sect, Yang.... Elder Yang.... ''s envoy. My name is Xiao Bai!" Tang Li Xue tried to say with a prideful tone.
At first, she wanted to im to be the Elder Yang himself, but she even forgot that Elder Yang''s full name right now, and she still did not even know anything about that Elder Yang.
Moreover, Elder Yang was a man, while she was undoubtedly a young girl from her petite body frame and her sweet feminine voice.
If she imed to be Elder Yang, all of these people would certainly feel suspicious. They would certainly ask something about Elder Yang from herter to check her identity, but she could certainly not be able to answer any of it.
In short, she would undoubtedly be discovered on the spot by them if she imed to be Elder Yang!
As for why she used Xiao Bai''s name¡ It was because that Elder Yang called her by that name once before.
"Ah! So, this missy is the Elder Yang''s envoy!"
"All of us already heard Elder Yang''s famous name before!"
"Who does not know Elder Yang?! He is the youngest Core Formation Expert in the Lightwind Continent''s history!"
"As we should expect from the most talented young man in the Lightwind Continent''s history. Even his envoy is so powerful! She can easily avoid the attack from two Core Formation Experts!"
All the people in the center hall started to discuss it noisily.
"Young Miss Xiao Bai, we are honored to meet with you! If you did not help us on time tonight, we would certainly have already died by now. Thank you very much for your help. We owe you with our lives." Elder Wu Ming said as he bowed his head a bit and gave fist palm salute to Tang Li Xue.
The other people in the center hall also followed Elder Wu Ming and thanked Tang Li Xue for her help.
"All of you do not need to worry about it. I am doing this under my master''s order. He also ordered three other envoys other than me toe here soon. All of you must be already knew the reason why he sent us here, right?" Tang Li Xue still said with a prideful tone.
The two Core Formation Experts from Oracle Mountain Sect nced at each other secretly in surprise.
''How could that young brat from Immortal Sword Sect know it?! Is there a spy among us?! But how could they send the secret message under this situation?!''
''Calm down! Do not fall under her trap! Try to inquire about it more clearly if they really know it or only guessing about something!''
These two Core Formation Experts from Oracle Mountain Sect conversed with each other with only their nce in a single moment.
"Young Miss Xiao Bai, I am really sorry, but we really do not know the intention of Honorable Elder Yang to help us. Can you enlighten us about it?" Elder Wu Ming said again with a polite tone.
"That is right. We really do not know. One of the Lin Family''s people is our outer sect elder, and he asks for our help to save his family from annihtion. We, the people from Oracle Mountain Sect, have a strong sense of camaraderie, so wee here to save his family from those beasts. We really do not have any other motive other than that." The other Core Formation Experts added.
Tang Li Xue''s expression darkened in an instant.
''These people... they said something nice like owing me their lives before, but now they pretend not to know anything when I mention about the treasure they got. What a group of ungrateful bast*rds?!'' Tang Li Xue cursed them in her heart.
"Honorable Elders, you all are really good at joking. My master does not care about the ancient treasures that you all got from the treasure map, our Immortal Sword Sect nevercks any treasures, but he is very interested in the half of Ancient Martial Art Manual. So, please... I, Xian Bai, humbly ask Honorable Elders to not make my job more difficult." Tang Li Xue said with a more polite tone, but with a tint of annoyance mixed in it.
Tang Li Xue also gave fist palm salute to the two elders of Oracle Mountain Sect with a solemn expression.
She even mentioned ''our Immortal Sword Sect'' to intimidate them.
"This... Uh... I am sorry, Young Miss Xiao Bai, but we cannot make this decision alone. We must discuss this further with the other fellow Daoists from Oracle Mountain Sect and Lin Family. Unfortunately, we are still not out of the dangers yet now, so we can only postpone it forter." Elder Wu Ming replied vaguely to Tang Li Xue.
"All right, we will discuss it after we are out of the dangers, and myradese here." Tang Li Xue said with a cold tone.
Tang Li Xue knew these people definitely tried to stall for more time. They want to make her help them until the end, but these scums did not even want to give any assurance to give that half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual to her.
If possible, they probably want to get Tang Li Xue''s help for free without giving anything in return.
This was the true greedy nature of humans... They felt gratitude when she saved their lives, but started to hesitate when she asked for something precious as payment.
''No wonder Instructor Mei Lan warns us repeatedly to never believe in any human. If I believe everything they have said, they would probably scam all of my possessions, and sell me to the ve trader, while I still happily count their money for them.'' Tang Li Xue thought as she felt really pissed off.
''But this is good for me too... because I can ask Instructor Lan about our next moveter. Oh, I also must report what happened here to Instructor Mei Lan as soon as possible.'' Tang Li Xue thought again.
From this conversation, Tang Li Xue also realized another benefit of her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability.
She could faintly detect the hidden intention of the people around her with it. She could even faintly detect if they were telling lies or not.
Of course, it was only a faint feeling for now since her Spirit Stat was not high enough.
She did not realize this function before because Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and Teacher Wei have always been frank with her.
''Sigh... If I know about this ability earlier, I could avoid many problems in my previous mission... Forget it... The most important thing right now is that my knowledge about my own divine ability has increased, and I should learn about how to use them more properly in the future.'' Tang Li Xue tried to motivate herself.
Of course, her Spirit Stat was even lower than now at that time. That was the reason why she failed to notice it before.
The thirty flying giant lizards threw another twenty or so of their powerfulbined attacks to the golden barrier, but different from before, the golden barrier did not even show any sign of weakening, even after it received so many of their powerfulbined attacks continuously.
Those giant lizards were not fools. They immediately realized that the people inside the barrier should receive some help from the formation expert to reinforce their protection formation now.
Any attempt to break this golden barrier would remain futile even if they bombarded it until dawn, so they decided to momentarily retreat for now to search for a way to crack it.
Chapter 309: Human Cruelty!
Chapter 309: Human Cruelty!
Tang Li Xue used her [Swap] skill to exchange her location with her perfect copy again.
She decided to let her perfect copy chat with those people in the center hall, while she met again with Yaya and the white-colored Wind Riding Bird.
Tang Li Xue unsummoned her martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent], and stored the white-colored Wind Riding Bird back into her space pouch before taking out themunication talisman to contact Instructor Mei Lan.
But it seems the golden barrier also made any people inside it unable to use any form ofmunication to contact any people outside the barrier, so Tang Li Xue could not contact Instructor Mei Lan too at this moment.
''Sigh¡ Looks like I must wait for them to lift the golden protection barrier before I can contact Instructor Lan¡ I have no other task to do for now. I can use this free time to look around this Lin Family''s pce. Perhaps it can be useful for meter if I know more about this ce.'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind.
Of course, Tang Li Xue also did not want anyone to see her here when her perfect copy was still in the center hall, so she activated her [Ethereal Form] before leisurely looking around the Lin Family''s ce with Yaya and Little Loki.
After more than one hour of walking all over the ce inside the golden barrier, Tang Li Xue more or less knew every corner of this Lin Family''s ce.
Of course, her perfect copy also did not remain idle in this one hour. Her perfect copy chatted with some people in the center hall, trying to find the whereabouts of the half Ancient Martial Art Manual in this Lin Family''s ce.
Unfortunately, all the people in the center hall were really tight-lipped, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still has not managed to find any information about it.
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue subconsciously walked back toward the old looking temple again. She already looked around this ce before but failed to find anything worth her notice.
"This ce is really strange! There is clearly nothing here, but why is this ce guarded so tightly by many armored guards?" Tang Li Xue frowned and murmured while in deep thought.
With her [Ethereal Form], Tang Li Xue easily passed through the locked door without being detected by any guard, then she stealthy slipped inside the old looking temple again.
The interior of the old temple looked simple.
The lighting in the old temple was also quite dim since there were only several candles used to illuminate the temple''s interior.
There were several warrior statues with different poses lined neatly on the left and right sides.
There was also a big altar in the front with several ques ced in that altar.
The atmosphere seems really eerie, but that was all. There was nothing strange in this temple at all.
Even after Tang Li Xue searched around repeatedly for so many times, she still failed to find anything suspicious.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper.
She closed her eyes and pondered for a while.
Her sharp nose felt really ufortable because the smell of incense inside here was too thick.
"Eh¡ Wait a minute¡ I already sniffed the smell of incense before, but the scent should not be as thick and annoying as this! It seems like¡ they are trying to use this smell of incense to cover something!" Tang Li Xue murmured and widened her eyes as she realized this.
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to push her [Extrasensory Perception] to maximum!
Her [Extrasensory Perception] still failed to find anything, but it managed to detect the faint scent hidden by the smell of incense!
"This is¡?the smell of blood?! The smell is really faint, but¡ I am sure this is the smell of blood. If I trace it back to the source of this smell¡ I should be able to find something useful, right?" Tang Li Xue smirked as she tried to use her [Extrasensory Perception] to find the direction of this blood smell.
It did not take her long to find the source of blood smell wasing from the underground of the old looking temple.
It seems she must trigger some kind of mechanism to open the way to the underground, but Tang Li Xue was toozy to do that since it was too time-consuming and no one could tell if it was actually a trap or not.
Rather than doing something risky like that, she better used her [Ethereal Form] to passed through the ground and find the hidden way in the underground.
Tang Li Xue found a long dark corridor under the ground.
At the end of the dark corridor, there was a very long spiral staircase heading deeper into the underground.
The deeper Tang Li Xue entered the underground, the more pungent the smell of blood has be.
When she arrived at the most bottom part of the underground way, not only she smelled the pungent smell of blood, but she also smelled the disgusting smell of rotting corpse here.
If not for the effect of her [Indomitable Will] skill, she would probably already puke out because of the unbearable stink.
"Is this the hidden dungeon to imprison the criminal or their enemies?" Tang Li Xue murmured while looked around the dungeon.
Tang Li Xue also apologized to Yaya and Little Loki first before storing them back into her system pet storage.
Just from the unbearable pungent smell alone, Tang Li Xue could already guess that this ce was not a nice ce to look at.
That was why she would not let Yaya and Little Loki see it.
¡..
There were so many prisons here separated by thick walls and steel doors.
Inside some prisons, there were some dried corpses where the rats started to gnaw on them.
There were also some of the prisoners that remained alive by eating the cockroaches and rats here.
It was so dark here, and Tang Li Xue could only see everything clearly thanks to her [Night Vision] skill.
''It seems there is nothing worth my notice here. I will take a quick look at its interior swiftly before going out. Who knows if they dare to throw me into hereter if they know that I am lying to them?! At least I would already know all the routes here, so I can escape quickly from here.'' Tang Li Xue thought carefully.
It only took a few minutes for her to reach the deepest part of this dark hidden dungeon.
There was a huge prison here, and there was also a pool of blood in the middle of the prison.
Drip¡ Drip¡ Drip¡ Drip¡ Drip¡
Tang Li Xue had just realized that the blood in the pool actually came from above, so she looked upward.
Her topaz blue pupil was dted when she saw something so horrible that sent a chill onto her spine.
Even with her [Indomitable Will], Tang Li Xue almost could not hold down her urge to throw up.
Above this huge prison, a huge creature was hanged there with a lot of chains embed deep into its flesh.
It was hard to recognize this huge creature because it only looked like a big lump of meat.
But Tang Li Xue could guess from the shape, that this big lump of meat was actually the female lizard.
In Tang Li Xue''s information, this female lizard was taken by Lin Family as a hostage to be exchanged with the other half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual.
However, it seems Lin Family also given up on the exchange after they heard the news about the thirty flying big lizard heading toward their residence one or two days ago.
So they decided to take every valuable part of this female lizard''s body from its body!
They pulled all of its scales to make armors with it.
They also pulled all of its fangs and ws to make weapons with it.
They even skinned its outeryer skin to make clothes, because even without its scales, the lizard race still has a thinyer of skin with beautiful shiny color.
They also took out its pair of eyes as an ingredient to make essories.
While its tongue, limbs, and tail were also ingredients for rare and delicious delicacies.
As for the reason why they did not kill this female lizard and let it live until now.
It was because the blood from Lizard Race was really valuable since it contained a dragon''s blood. Although their dragon bloodline was very thin, but it could be made into many kinds of supplements and life-prolonging elixir.
Lin Family nned to squeeze out every worth from this female lizard by not killing it!
They wrung her blood dry like this, but still feed it with some cheap elixirs. Those cheap elixirs were not enough to cure the fatal wound of this female lizard, but it was enough to let her blood regenerate continuously.
Moreover, the body of the Beast Race was really tenacious, and they were not easy to die unless their head got cut or their beast core was taken, especially Lizard Race because they have the strongest body amongst the Beast Race.
Tang Li Xue felt really sorry for this female lizard.
Maybe... No... The death was definitely much morefortable to it than live like livestock like this.
''What should I do? Should I just kill her to release her from all of her sufferings?'' Tang Li Xue considered it carefully.
This matter was quite important, so Tang Li Xue did not dare to act rashly.
Chapter 310: Instructor Mei Lans Stern Warning!
Chapter 310: Instructor Mei Lan''s Stern Warning!
In the end, Tang Li Xue did not dare to kill nor save the pitiful female lizard without Instructor Mei Lan''s permission.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to save this pitiful female lizard so badly from its misery, but she also did not want to ruin Instructor Mei Lan''s mission because of her action.
''Sigh¡ Maybe I cannot save her for now, but it does not mean that I cannot help her alleviate the pain by a bit, right?'' Tang Li Xue thought as she canceled her [Ethereal Form].
Tang Li Xue took out [Talisman of Numbness +3] and [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from her space pouch, then threw it to the bloody skinless female lizard.
Tang Li Xue also created a white flying disc with her [Energy maniption]. She rode on it to approach the hanged female lizard and whispered to her with a gentle tone: "I am really sorry¡ I cannot help you for now. This is the best I can do now. But you do not need to feel worried. Once I finish my mission here, I will definitelye here to save you and bring you out from here."
"So, please... Hold on for a bit longer. Do not give up just yet! I am sure your husband must be still waiting for you toe back now." Tang Li Xue ended her talk and activated her [Ethereal Form] once again.
Tang Li Xue did not know if the female lizard could hear her words or not right now, but at the very least, she hoped her words could give some motivation for the female lizard to keep on living.
When she almost went out from the female lizard''s prison, she nced back once more at the pitiful female lizard in reluctance before shook her head and swiftly went out from the hidden dungeon.
After she saw what these humans have done to the pitiful female lizard, Tang Li Xue felt her heart was boiling with rage right now.
She thought these people from the Lin Family were deserved to be destroyed by those angry lizards!
Although, the pitiful female lizard was a beast, but they could just kill her swiftly before dismembering her body parts.
Dismembered her body parts, then keeping her alive to continuously take her blood was really too cruel!
Tang Li Xue really could not forgive this kind of cruelness!
When Tang Li Xue went out from the old temple, the golden barrier has already been lifted by now, and her perfect copy also already took back the Array Strengthening Stone, but she promised to lend it to them once more if those lizards assaulted them againter.
Tang Li Xue took out themunication talisman to contact Instructor Mei Lan, and unlike before, her call really reached Instructor Mei Lan now.
After Instructor Mei Lan picked her call, Tang Li Xue immediately told Instructor Mei Lan everything. From how she impersonated as The Envoy of Immortal Sword Sect until how she tried to find the location of that half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual but still failed to find any clue about it for now.
Tang Li Xue also told Instructor Mei Lan about the female lizard''s horrible condition now and asked if she could try to save it now or not.
"You are doing great to not act rashly under that situation. I will head there right now. We will discuss our next moveter after we meet again." Instructor Mei Lan''s sweet voice resounded from Tang Li Xue''smunication talisman.
"All right." Tang Li Xue nodded, but before she could disconnect theirmunication¡
"Wait¡ You said you get that badge from Elder Yang directly. How close are you with that Elder Yang?" Instructor Mei Lan asked again from Tang Li Xue''smunication talisman.
Tang Li Xue took a few moments to process Instructor Mei Lan''s question.
"Eh? No, no, it is a misunderstanding! I¡ I swear that I am really not that close to him! He only gives that badge to me after saving me from a giant spider before. He wanted to escort me back to Myriad Foxes Academy, but when I refused his offer, he gave me this badge instead. He said it can protect me and help me get home safely." Tang Li Xue exined it clearly to Instructor Mei Lan.
She was afraid that Instructor Mei Lan has a misunderstanding and thought that she has a romantic rtionship with a human.
Moreover, he was not a normal human either.
The Honorary Elder of Immortal Sword Sect held much greater significance than the usual Elder like Outer Sect Elder, Inner Sect Elder, and so on.
Even the Grand Elder of Immortal Sword Sect must greet and speak with him politely.
"That is good. It seems there will be no problem for uster." Instructor Mei Lan said again.
"Eh? What?" Tang Li Xue asked in puzzlement.
"Little Xue, do you really think that those people from Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect are fools who will believe everything you said to them? If I am not wrong, they should be asking about your identity validation to Immortal Sword Sect now." Instructor Mei Lanzily replied.
"Oh, no! Doesn''t it mean my fake envoy identity would be exposed sooner?! What should I do now?! Should I escape from here as soon as possible?" Tang Li Xue asked in a flustered and panicked manner.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled at Tang Li Xue and replied again: "You do not need to worry. ording to your story, I guess that Elder Yang should fall for you now. Oh, no... not fall just yet... Maybe have ''some interest in you'' is more correct. So, he will not do something to harm you, at least¡ for now."
Tang Li Xue felt a bit confused at Instructor Mei Lan''s words, but she sighed in relief when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''sst sentence.
"Little Xue, you can have as many connections with humans as you want. You can also have as many male humans fall for you as you want. But remember! Never trust any humans! Never leak your identity as Fox Race to them! Not even one!" Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue with a stern tone.
"And the most important one is¡ Never fall in love with a human! Do you understand?!" Instructor Mei Lan shouted her warn to Tang Li Xue with her most stern tone.
"All¡ All right! I understand! I can befriend any humans, but I must never trust them and fall in love with them, right?!" Tang Li Xue shouted too to show that she understood it.
"Good¡ Just like now, our connection with humans can help us toplete our mission in the human worldter. We can also gather a lot of important information faster if we have more connections with humans. So, befriended with them would definitely beneficial for us." Instructor Mei Lan continued to tell her advice, not only to Tang Li Xue but also to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao beside her.
"Just remember to keep a proper distance from them. Not too close, but not too distant. We from the Fox Race have a very beautiful appearance, so we can easily make any male humans fall for us. We can use our enchanting appearance as our weapon and make those males into our tools. But we are not human in the end... and if they know your identity. Your end will definitely be more miserable than that female lizard." Instructor Mei Lan concluded her speech.
After Tang Li Xue ended up her call, she took some time to process all of Instructor Mei Lan''s words while summoned out Yaya and Little Loki from her system pet storage.
''Ah, well¡ In short, I can be friends with any humans, right? Since I already get permission from Instructor Lan, then there is no problem anymore.''
''As for falling for a human, that is probably only ever happening in the story. I never even have any time to spend with others other than Bingbing, Silly Fox, Teacher Wei, and Instructor Lan until now and probably in the future too.''
''Hmm¡ Silly Fox is not bad. He always expressed his love for me in a silly way, and it makes me so embarrassed until I ignore him every time he does it, but it also makes him quite cute. Maybe, I should... Sigh... Forget it! Honestly, the romance things like this are still too early for me.''
''First, I need to get a lot stronger to not be a burden to Instructor Lan! Also, my first goal is to travel around the Immortal World, to see the beautiful scenes in this world. I already cooped inside the hospital room for too long in my previous life, so I do not want to get cooped again inside the house with my husband and child. That would be extremely boring!''
''I have decided it¡ I will only look for a spouse after I am bored in traveling around this Immortal Worldter!''
Tang Li Xue shook her head and chuckled freely after she clearly decided what she needs to do for now and what she would do in the near futureter.
Tang Li Xue used her [Swap] skill again to exchange location with her perfect copy, then she led the people in the center hall to greet Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao, which already arrived at the front gate of Lin Family''s residence.
Meanwhile, just like what Instructor Mei Lan had already predicted, the Elders of Oracle Mountain Sect already ordered some of their people to inquire about Tang Li Xue''s identity from Elder Yang of Immortal Sword Sect.
Because, even though Tang Li Xue has Elder Yang''s jade insignia, but it could notpletely eliminate the possibility that she was impersonating as the envoy of Elder Yang.
That half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual was really important for them, and they actually not willing to give it away just like that.
But they would not have any other choice if Elder Yang of Immortal Sword Sect really asked for it from them.
The reputation of Immortal Sword Sect as the strongest sect in Lightwind Continent was not just for a show after all.
Moreover, the Immortal Sword Sect still kept expanding at an astonishing rate from a few years ago until now. Many people spected that the Immortal Sword Sect actually have backing from the superpower with an immense background in Central Continent.
That was the reason why even Oracle Mountain Sect did not dare to confront Immortal Sword Sect and would probably choose to yield to their will if Tang Li Xue was really an envoy from Immortal Sword Sect.
¡..
¡
.
At one of the most beautiful mountain peaks in the Immortal Sword Sect, there was a luxurious residence build on there.
This luxurious residence was several times more majestic than Lin Family''s residence.
This ce was Elder Yang Zhiyun''s temporary dwelling ce.
Currently, Elder Yang was still practicing in controlling his newly obtained power.
The Blood of Lust was flowing out from the tip of his finger.
Elder Yang leisurely waved his hand toward the giant boulder in his courtyard.
At first, nothing happened to the giant boulder¡ but after a few seconds¡
Crack¡ Crack¡ Crack¡ BOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The giant boulder was split in two like tofu.
"Not bad¡" Elder Yang muttered.
"Honorable Elder Yang, Young Master Ye Zhen is asking in to meet with you. He also brings the captive from Blood Devil Sect here." The servant politely informed Elder Yang.
"Let him in!" Elder Yang instructed the servant as he walked into the pavilion and sat in there while leisurely sipped on his tea.
Not long after that, Ye Zhen, the core disciple of Elder Yang, entered the pavilion too while bringing a tied person with him.
This tied person was the elder from Blood Devil Sect, the one who wore the skull mask before and almost killed Tang Li Xue in Quanhai City.
He was actually a quite handsome middle-aged man under his skull mask, but that was not important now.
The eyes of this elder of Blood Devil Sect were still nk and unfocused.
Sometimes he looked serious, but sometimes heughed happily by himself.
No matter how anyone tried to talk to him, he never answered it.
Ye Zhen even already tortured him, but his reaction was still the same as now.
It was as if this person was drowned in his own delusion and could no longer get out from it.
Chapter 311: Xiao Hei!
Chapter 311: Xiao Hei!
The upper half of Elder Yang''s face was still covered by a silver mask as usual, but Ye Zhen could tell from Elder Yang''s eyes that he frowned deeply in displeasure as he saw the unresponsive condition of this elder from Blood Devil Sect.
There were many things that Elder Yang wanted to ask this elder from the Blood Devil Sect, but this elder of the Blood Devil Sect certainly could not answer anything in this condition.
"How is it?" Elder Yang asked Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen shook his head and replied: "I already do everything I can do. Whip torture, acid poison, throw him into the freezing room... I even use a high-temperature heated knife to slice his tendon, but he is still not wake up."
Elder Yang stood up from his seat and approached the elder of the Blood Devil Sect, then examined his condition once more.
"Is this hypnosis technique? No... It seems like his consciousness, heart, and mind are locked in somewhere else. He cannot even feel any pain or suffering anymore. The person who did this to him is really amazing. You said the person who did this is a girl, right? Tell me everything you know about her! Name, appearance, everything..." Elder Yang said to Ye Zhen.
An image of the innocent-looking maiden with matchless beauty shed in Ye Zhen''s mind once more and made him fall into a daze.
Elder Yang frowned again when Ye Zhen did not answer his question, so he nced at Ye Zhen and called: "Ye Zhen?"
Ye Zhen woke up from his daze and be a bit flustered, but he quickly calmed himself down.
When Ye Zhen opened his mouth to answer Elder Yang''s question, his heart was refused his will to reveal anything about Tang Li Xue to Elder Yang.
Ye Zhen started to hesitate. He admired Elder Yang very much, but he did not want Elder Yang to know anything about Miss Xiao Xue.
Maybe it was because he was afraid that Elder Yang would hunt down Miss Xiao Xue.
"She is a really beautiful girl in a ck cloak." In the end, Ye Zhen decided to only vaguely describe her appearance.
"A girl with a beautiful face? She did not wear any mask like a fox mask?" Elder Yang asked again with a skeptical tone.
"Uh... No." Ye Zhen answered half-heartedly.
At first, Xiao Xue wore a fox mask, but Ye Zhen broke it when he ambushed her from behind before, but Xiao Xue immediately reced it and wore another fox mask after that. At least, Ye Zhen himself did not think he was lying since he saw Xiao Xue without her fox mask...
"Really? Then try to draw her appearance for me." Elder Yang said as he took out an empty scroll, a bottle of ink, and a paintbrush from his spatial ring then ced it on the stone table in the center of the pavilion.
"Ah?! I... I must draw her appearance?! But... But I cannot draw!" Ye Zhen jumped in surprise, and he immediately refused it.
But Elder Yang still waited for Ye Zhen to draw patiently.
Just when Ye Zhen held the paintbrush in hesitation with a sour face, another disciple with ck uniform entered Elder Yang''s pavilion too.
"Greeting to Honorable Elder Yang. This humble disciple has something important to report." The disciple in ck uniform bowed politely to Elder Yang.
Ye Zhen''s eyes brightened as he said: "Ah, it seems this fellow disciple has something really important to tell Elder Yang, then I will excuse myself for now."
"All right, you can leave now." Elder Yang waved his hand, signaling Ye Zhen to leave.
Ye Zhen swiftly took the Elder from Blood Devil Sect and ran out from Elder Yang''s pavilion, but before he could run far from it, Elder Yang shouted to remind him: "Do not forget to hand over your painting to me tomorrow! As for that man, you can get rid of him now."
Ye Zhen almost stumbled and fell when he heard Elder Yang''s words. Ye Zhen really wanted to cry, but there were no tearse out.
He was a martial art maniac and never learned how to paint before!
Elder Yang smiled while shook his head in Ye Zhen''s silliness.
Elder Yang already detected the extreme reluctance of Ye Zhen''s expression and words when he asked about that woman.
''It seems that woman must be really beautiful to even make that Ye brat fall so hard for her.'' Elder Yang thought.
"Speak!" Elder Yang said to the disciple in ck uniform.
"Report to Honorable Elder Yang. The elder of Oracle Mountain Sect contacted us to verify if Honorable Elder Yang really sent four envoys to Misty Mountain Peak." The disciple in ck uniform bowed his head politely and reported.
"Four envoys? Did you ask for their appearance or their trait clearly?" Elder Yang raised his eyebrow in suspicion and asked.
"Yes!?They said all of those envoys wore ck cloaks, and the three of those four envoys are young girls. Two of those young girls are very beautiful, while thest girl has your jade insignia, and she wore a fox mask to cover her face. Thest girl with the fox mask was the one who introduced herself as your envoy. She also said her name is Xiao Bai." The disciple in ck uniform replied almost immediately.
"Oh?! A girl with a fox mask? That Chou Nu (Ugly Girl)¡ How dare she use my name?! She even dares to use my Xiao Bai''s name!" Elder Yang scolded Tang Li Xue with his mouth, but he himself did not realize that his expression became much gentler now, when he recalled those pair of mesmerizing topaz blue eyes which identical to histe Xiao Bai.
Elder Yang chuckled while thinking for a while.
"Contact that elder of Oracle Mountain Sect and say that those people are really my envoys, so try to fulfill all of their requests as much as possible." Elder Yang ordered the disciple in ck uniform before waved his hand signaled the disciple to leave.
The disciple in ck uniform bowed once more to Elder Yang before hastily went out from the pavilion, but before that¡
Elder Yang added one more order: "Tell to the elder of Oracle Mountain Sect that all of my envoys are really important to me, especially the one with a fox mask, so they must protect all of my envoys at all cost. If they dare to hurt my envoys, I will surely make them regret it!"
The disciple in ck uniform shuddered slightly and immediately replied: "Understood!"
Elder Yang chuckled again and thought: ''That little girl¡ what did she want to do at Misty Mountain Peak? Forget it... I will ask her myself if I meet with her again next time."
When he made sure he was really alone, Elder Yang decided to open his silver mask that covered his face.
His handsome and cold face was revealed once more.
If anyone from Asura Demon Sect saw his appearance now, they would immediately recognize him because this Elder Yang Zhiyun was actually the former Patriarch of the Asura Demon Sect, Mo Zhiyun!
Previously, Tang Li Xue always called him Xiao Hei before all of her memories about him were sealed by the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
Elder Yang closed his eyes and muttered with a mourning tone: "Xiao Bai¡"
Elder Yang or maybe we rather called him with Xiao Hei now¡ wanted to go back to the Asura Demon Sect after his grandfather came back at first.
But he immediately remembered the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s words about his grandfather actually used him and histe father as whetstones for his uncle.
So, he decided to wait for a while and see the situation first¡
However, his grandfather did not even punish his uncle and even instantly promote him to the next patriarch when he came back.
His grandfather did not even ask for his news or to look at his dead body!
From that, Xiao Hei finally realized that all of the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s words were true.
He and histe father was nothing more than chess pieces that can be sacrificed anytime in front of his grandfather''s eyes.
Xiao Hei felt very angry and resentful after that!
He wanted to take revenge!
He did not feel that close to his father, but his Xiao Bai was different!
His Xiao Bai already saved him several times, so how could he did not take revenge for her death!
That was the reason why he joined the strongest virtuous sect, the Immortal Sword Sect!
Actually, Xiao Hei''s adventure was no less exciting than Tang Li Xue at all.
After he almost got killed by his uncle, Mo Chonglin, Xiao Hei got randomly teleported by Tang Li Xue''s [Substitute Doll], and he identally teleported into the Asura Demon Sect''s hidden inheritance ground!
The requirement to open this Asura Demon Sect''s hidden inheritance ground was very harsh.
First, the Asura Demon Sect must be on the verge of copse from external invasion. What did it mean?
It means the sect protection array must get destroyed, and the most sacred ce of the Asura Demon Sect, the ancestral hall, must get burned to ashes!
identally, the sect protection array was forcefully destroyed by the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard when they were escaping from the Asura Demon Sect.
Tang Li Xue also identally burned the ancestral hall to ashes when she awakened the Phoenix of Pride.
The second requirement was... of course, only Asura Demon Sect''s patriarch could enter the hidden inheritance ground and obtained the Asura Demon King inheritance.
At that time, Xiao Hei was still the rightful patriarch of the Asura Demon Sect, since Mo Chonglin still has not been crowned as the next patriarch of the Asura Demon Sect by his grandfather yet.
So, Xiao Hei managed to get Asura Demon Inheritance, [Asura Demon King Scripture] there which made his cultivation advance by leap and bounds.
He vowed to exact his revenge for Xiao Bai and y Mo Chonglin after that!
Unfortunately, his grandfather gave the blood essence of Asura Demon to Mo Chonglin.
The blood essence of Asura Demon should be used for Xiao Hei to breakthrough from Core Formation Stage to Nascent Soul Stageter, and his grandfather already promised it to him.
But in the end, his grandfather gave it to his uncle!
By using that blood essence of Asura Demon, Mo Chonglin managed to breakthrough from Core Formation Stage to Nascent Soul Stage!
So, Xiao Hei was forced to wait for the right opportunity right now¡
Although Xiao Hei''s cultivation already increased by leap and bound, but his cultivation was still only at Core Formation Stage, while his uncle was at the early Nascent Soul Stage now.
The difference between Core Formation Stage and Nascent Soul Stage was even vaster than Foundation Establishment Stage and Core Formation Stage.
If Xiao Hei at his Foundation Establishment Stage could not even defeat his uncle at Core Formation Stage, then now, his chance of winning would be even more hopeless.
That was the reason why he decided to join Immortal Sword Sect.
He wanted to use Immortal Sword Sect''s power to ruin Asura Demon Sect, and to exact his revenge on his uncle!
"Xiao Bai¡ I will definitely get your revenge and kill Mo Chonglin! No matter what it takes..." Xiao Hei muttered with a cold tone filled with murderous intent.
Chapter 312: Four Tasks To Do!
Chapter 312: Four Tasks To Do!
¡..
After the people from the Lin Family and the Elder of Oracle Mountain Sect chatted with Tang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan, and the other for more than an hour, they escorted Tang Li Xue''s group to their own respective room to rest.
But currently, Tang Li Xue was having a secret meeting with Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao in her room.
Instructor Mei Lan took a ck pearl out from her space pouch and threw it upward.
The ck pearl spun slowly on mid-air, and it started to shine with dim crimson light.
The dim crimson light covered the entire corner of Tang Li Xue''s room.
Instructor Mei Lan sat on the seat at the center of the room and exined to all of her students: "This is a magic treasure called Prohibition Pearl. It can prevent anyone from eavesdropping on our conversation. You can talk and ask anything you want right now."
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as she slowly sipped her tea while waited for Tang Li Xue and the others to ask any questions to her.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao thought a bit about what they really wanted to ask Instructor Mei Lan, so Tang Li Xue took this opportunity to ask first.
"Instructor Lan, I know that there are two ways to break the array or formation. We can either forcefully break it with greater strength or find the eye core of the formation and destroy it. Is there a fast way to find the eye core of the formation?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a curious tone.
Instructor Mei Lan raised her eyebrow and asked back: "Aren''t you manage to find the eye core of the golden barrier before? How do you find it?"
Tang Li Xue replied while blushed slightly: "That¡ I only find it by chance."
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Little Loki, who lying downzily on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder and thought: ''This cute little kitty is surprisingly very strict even to its master!''
Instructor Mei Lan smirked and exined: "The eye core of the formation is always at the center of that formation. If you draw a circle, then the midpoint of that circle is where the eye core is. I am not a Master Inscriptionist, so I only know that much."
"You should ask Sissy Wei to teach you more about array and formationter because that knowledge is very important for survival. You are lucky this time since the one who set the formation ispletely amateur. If that Sissy Wei who set it, he would certainly ce several eye core''s dummies along with many dangerous traps. You will certainly die without knowing if you try to approach the eye of formation he set." Instructor Mei Lan concluded her exnation.
"Understood! But Instructor Lan, you said you do not know much about the formation, so how could you destroy the formation all this time?" Tang Li Xue asked again.
Instructor Mei Lanughed at Tang Li Xue''s silly question and replied with a leisure tone: "By force of course!"
Instructor Mei Lan raised her slender white palm and showed it to Tang Li Xue, then the air around her slender white palm started to vibrate violently.
Even with her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue could barely sense anything other than the abnormal flow of air around Instructor Mei Lan''s palm, but her heart somehow started to palpitate in fear.
''This should be her [Demonic Tune] divine ability, but Instructor Lanpressed its power to the extreme level. It makes the air around her palm vibrating so intensely¡ This technique works like a chainsaw¡ No, it should countless times more dangerous than a chainsaw. Extreme sharpness and intense vibration¡ Tsk, tsk, tsk¡ No wonder, she should be able to cut any protection barrier like soft tofu with that.'' Tang Li Xue thought in awe.
"Instructor Lan, I always feel really strange. Why must we do something secretly like this? We must even hide our Myriad Foxes Academy at a ce where any humans cannot find us. Are Human Race really that strong that we must fear them?" Hei Yinghao asked Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and answered: "The strength of Human Race is on par with the entire Beast Race. So if you ask, are the Human Race stronger than our Fox Race? Then yes, they are much stronger than our Fox Race alone."
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xue and said: "Do you remember when I said your end will definitely be more miserable than that female lizard if any humans know about our identity? That is an empty warning at all. This is also rted to the reason why our Fox Race needs to hide from Human Race."
Instructor Mei Lan smirked coldly and asked: "Do you know what beast race is the most sought after by the human race?"
Tang Li Xue loudly gulped her saliva in nervousness and murmured: "Is... Is it our Fox Race? Instructor Lan, you are really not pulling our legs, right? Are you only trying to scare us?"
"Unfortunately, this is the truth. Our Fox Race is the most wanted by Human Race since ancient times. Our tails can be made into longevity medicine to extend their lifespan. All of the female humans want to drink our blood to obtain evesting beauty. Yet those are not the main reason why we became the most wanted race by Human Race." Instructor Mei Lan slowly exined.
Tang Li Xue also nodded her head in understanding and thought deeply.
Although those two effects were quite amazing, but many other items could achieve the same effects in this Immortal World.
"Is the reason... our beauty?" Bing Yi muttered.
Instructor Mei?Lan nodded and replied: "Smart! That is correct! Our Race is known as the most beautiful Race. In fact, many of our Fox Race got caught by humans through history, and they were forced to marry the people in power like the king or emperor. That is the reason why they called the sexually attractive women as vixen now."
"They will cut all your tails and used it as longevity medicine. They will also drink your blood daily to maintain their young looks. While using your body to vent their lust every day¡ But you are not a human, so you do not have any right as a human. You are no more than pet or ve for them." Instructor Mei Lan patiently told to them.
"Thus, all of you must remember this well. If any human managed to find your identity as a fox, kill them as soon as possible, then erase all of your traces and tracks from there! Even if that human is kids, humans with mental illness, or mutes! No human could know about our identity as a fox!" Instructor Mei Lan reminded them with a stern tone once again.
Tang Li Xue, Hei Yinghao, and Bing Yi quickly nodded their head with serious expressions.
Instructor Mei Lan''s serious expression turned back to her gentle smiling face when she saw all of her students understood her words.
Instructor Mei Lanughed and said: "All right! Let''s talk about our next task now! We have four tasks to do now, and we must finish them in the right order. I will exin it one by one and give some task to all of you."
"First, we must find the half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual as soon as possible and take it into our grasp."
"Second, we have to make sure there is no copy from this half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual in the hands of Lin Family or Oracle Mountain Sect. If there are, then we must destroy it first."
"Third, we have to save that female lizard and bring it out from here without being noticed by anyone, then hand that female lizard back to the male lizard."
"Fourth, we have to make sure all the people here from Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect died in the hand of Lizard Race without any survivor left."
Instructor Mei Lan stopped talking and stared at Tang Li Xue and others one by one, then asked: "Up to here, do you understand everything clearly?"
Tang Li Xue and the others obediently nodded their head, but Tang Li Xue immediately asked again: "Eh? We need to make all the people from Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect died here? Really? But¡ but there are some small children here!"
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply at Tang Li Xue''s words and asked: "Little Xue, you are really weird¡ You know from the information we got that the Lin Family killed all the children of that female lizard, right?"
At first, Instructor Mei Lan thought that Tang Li Xue was only a na?ve and innocent little fox which only need to be taught properly to understand everything clearly, but from Tang Li Xue''s weird question just now, Instructor Mei Lan has a hunch that Tang Li Xue''s world perception was really weird.
It was as if Tang Li Xue did note from this world¡
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head to drive away that ridiculous thought.
Tang Li Xue scratched her head and said in hesitation: "That¡ That is right¡ But¡"
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and interrupted Tang Li Xue''s words: "You do not need to worry about that since that is my task, not yours. We need more time to find the half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual here, so we need someone to keep those thirty giant lizards of Lizard Race busy for a while."
"Your task is to keep those thirty giant lizards busy until we finish the first two tasks, then you will do the third task while I, Bingbing, and Silly Fox, will do the fourth task." Instructor Mei Lan said nonchntly.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and replied: "Oh¡ Sigh¡ So, I do not need to do that kind of cruel job¡"
"Wait¡ what? Instructor Lan, what did you said I must do now?" Tang Li Xue jumped in shock and asked Instructor Mei Lan again.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as usual and patted Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder: "I believe you can do it! Good luck!"
Chapter 313: Extreme Yin Technique!
Chapter 313: Extreme Yin Technique!
"Se¡ Seriously?! I¡ I am doing this alone?! Instructor Lan, I might be not ready for this¡" Tang Li Xue said to Instructor Mei Lan while stuttered.
Hei Yinghao nodded and assisted Tang Li Xue''s words: "Instructor Lan, this task is too dangerous for Little Xue alone! At least, please let me and Ice Girl help her!"
Bing Yi also nodded her head repeatedly.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head in disagreement and said: "Honestly, the two of you will only be Little Xue''s burden. Little Xue has several life-saving abilities that make her capable of advancing and retreating at will. This is the reason why I give her this task. But if you follow her, not only she must make those thirty powerful lizards busy for some time, but she also must protect you from them."
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi felt really dejected after they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at Tang Li Xue after saying all of that.
Watching the gentle smile on Instructor Mei Lan''s expression, Tang Li Xue''s danger instinct kicked in, and she subconsciously took a few steps backward.
"But if you do not like that task, we can exchange our task. Our team task is to find half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual. You already failed to find any clue about it despite already asked around for a few hours before, so I nned to take a bit heavier measure." Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue.
"A bit heavier measure?" Tang Li Xue asked with a curious tone.
I n to catch a few people from Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect, then torture them until they say the whereabouts of the half Ancient Martial Art Manual. If they still refuse to say it, I probably will have to use an extra measure. Do you want to know what my extra measure is?" Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue as her smile turned even gentler, but a glint of cruelness shed in her eyes.
Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva in nervousness and replied: "No¡
I¡ will definitely make those lizards busy as long as I can! Instructor Lan, you do not need to worry about it!"
"All right, you can go now!" Instructor Mei Lan waved her hand signaled Tang Li Xue to leave now.
But Tang Li Xue still did not leave the room. She rubbed her hand in anticipation and approached Instructor Mei Lan with a weird smile on her face.
"What do you want to ask again this time?" Instructor Mei Lan asked with a hint of annoyance.
"No, no, no¡ I do not want to ask anything. I hear from Bingbing that Instructor Lan already has half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual from the male lizard. Can I see it for a moment?" Tang Li Xue asked with a tone filled with excitement.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at Tang Li Xue with suspicion and asked: "Any martial art manual is useless for us, the beast race. Why do you want to see it?"
"No¡ Nothing! I am just very curious about the content of the legendary heaven-rank Ancient Martial Art Manual." Tang Li Xue replied nervously.
Instructor Mei Lan still felt suspicious by Tang Li Xue''s behavior, but she still took out the half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual from her space pouch and gave it to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue swiftly took the ancient-looking scroll from Instructor Mei Lan and impatiently unfurled it to see its content.
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise when she saw the content of the ancient-looking scroll.
She felt really shocked by the content of this half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual.
"..... What the hell with thisnguage?! I do not understand any of it at all! What is this aliennguage?! Instructor Lan, are you really sure that you did not get scammed by that male lizard? Maybe he gave you a fake scroll?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a disappointed tone.
"Do you think I am really that stupid?! This is the ancientnguage. This Ancient Martial Art Manual should be written from the old era more than a million years ago." Instructor Mei Lan smacked the back of Tang Li Xue''s head in anger and made Yaya, whozily sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head almost fell down.
''Wait a minute, my system can even decipher the Secret Coded Message in Asura Demon Sect before¡ So, it should be able to make meprehend this Ancient Martial Art Manual too, right? Let''s try!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she tapped the content of half Ancient Martial Art Manual and willed her system to work.
[Do you want toprehend The Ancient Martial Art: Extreme Yin Technique (First-Half) with cost 500 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
''Wohooo~!!! I really love you so much, my super convenient system! If you are a person, I would already marry you by now!'' Lang Li Xue almost cannot hold her urge to kiss her system''s confirmation disy.
''I need to use 500 Deity Coins to learn it?! It is very expensive! Even my [Four Mythical Guardian Beast] only cost 210 Deity Coins before! Well, it is only the Crimson Phoenix part, but still¡ aren''t 500 Deity Coins too expensive for only half part of that Ancient Martial Art Manual?'' Tang Li Xue groaned in her mind.
Tang Li Xue peeked at the current total of her Deity Coins at her status window and found out that she currently has over 2,000 Deity Coins in her savings.
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a few moments and pondered it carefully before decided it.
She gritted her teeth and shouted in her mind: ''Instructor Lan will definitely destroy this Ancient Martial Art Manualter, so I only have a few chances to learn it. Uarrrgghh¡ Here Ie ~! My first martial art! YES!''
Tang Li Xue expected a head-splitting headache to assault her mind, so she closed her eyes and gritted her teeth to endure it, but she only felt nausea and dizziness when the knowledge about the half of Ancient Martial Art Manual entered her brain.
''It did not feel painful at all?! It seems this is another effect of increasing my Spirit Stat¡ So, I also need a higher Spirit Stat to learn more powerful art, in order to nullify any painful bacsh like before? Damn, the Spirit Stat is really important! Looks like I still need to increase my Spirit Stat even more even after it reached 1,000.'' Tang Li Xue thought.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan only smiled and looked at Tang Li Xue''s change of expression from time to time in amusement from beside her.
When Tang Li Xue raised her head and her gaze met with the staring from Instructor Mei Lan and the others, she also smiled back at them in awkwardness.
Tang Li Xue returned the ancient-looking scroll to Instructor Mei Lan and thanked her. She also wanted to ask for Instructor Mei Lan to show the other half of Ancient Manual to her before destroying itter, but she felt too embarrassed to say it.
Instructor Mei Lan could already read Tang Li Xue''s intention from her bodynguage, so she said to Tang Li Xue: "It seems this half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual is quite useful to you. Do not worry! I will definitely show the other half part to you firstter."
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes brightened, and she happily said: "Thank you very much, Instructor Lan! I will go now!"
Tang Li Xue bid her farewell to Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao.
She also bid her farewell to the people from Oracle Mountain Sect and Lin Family and said to them that she has an urgent task from Elder Yang, so she needed to go back first.
After sprinted a few miles away from Lin Family''s residence, Tang Li Xue took out her white-colored Wind Riding Bird and drove it to chase after the thirty flying lizards.
It might be quite hard to locate a group of tiny birds on the top of this Misty Mountain Peak, but thirty giant lizards were really too easy to find since they were too eye-catching!
However, the biggest problem for Tang Li Xue was not to find the location of the thirty giant lizards, but how to make them busy until Instructor Mei Lan and the others finished their task!
"Also¡ what is wrong with my system?! Is it broken or something?! It refused to give me any quest when I try to slip into the golden barrier, and now, it still did not give me any quest too!" Tang Li Xue grumbled in frustration.
In the previous mission with the two arrogant disciples of Alchemist and Pharmacy Association, Tang Li Xue thought she made a mistake by taking the quest from her system too early.
If she asked the quests for infiltrated the Quanhai City, defeated the red-dresseddy, stopped the blood barrier to saving the people from Quanhai City, took the fragment of Divine Treasure, helped Elder Yang from Immortal Sword Sect, and so on¡ Didn''t it mean she could get multiple rewards from only one mission?!
Tang Li Xue tried her theory in this mission but it seems failed...
''Tsk! This system is really way too smart, right?! Is it noticed my intention, so it did not give me anymore quest because of it?! What a cheapskate system! What is wrong with giving more rewards to me?! I need a lot of levels to evolve to [Rare] grade this time!'' Tang Li Xueined to her system in her mind.
Unknowingly, Tang Li Xue already arrived at the ce where those thirty giant lizards took a rest.
"Now what?! Should I just get close to them and make them busy by talking to them? Maybe telling them the story of ''One thousand and One Nights''?" Tang Li Xue murmured as her mind started to think off some ns.
Chapter 314: Heavenly Yang Art!
Chapter 314: Heavenly Yang Art!
While thinking of some ns to make those thirty giant lizards busy for some time, Tang Li Xue also used this chance to check [Extreme Yin Technique] in her mind.
The content of this [Extreme Yin Technique] was really cryptic and hard to understand, but Tang Li Xue did not need to understand everything since she only wanted to read some information about its introduction now, so she could do it with ease.
The [Extreme Yin Technique] was only the first half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual, but it can be trained separately from the other half, the [Heavenly Yang Art].
However, the might of the Ancient Martial Art Manual would be quite limited. Although it was still very powerful, but it would bring harm to anyone who trained it.
If the [Extreme Yin Technique] was the negative part, then the [Heavenly Yang Art] was the positive part.
Too many negative part or positive part would bring imbnce to the body, and it would certainly make the body crumble from inside out.
But even if someone managed to get the two parts, it did not mean they could justbine them into one. Only someone with heaven-defyingprehension ability could decipher it andbine it into one.
Tang Li Xue did not mind this part at all, because no matter how high anyone''sprehension ability was, could they surpass her system in deciphering this Ancient Martial Art Manual?!
If anyone somehow managed tobine the [Extreme Yin Technique] part and the [Heavenly Yang Art] part into one, they would get [Extreme Yin and Yang Heavenly Form], which contained the most mysteriousw, thew of Yin and Yang.
"[Extreme Yin and Yang Heavenly Form]? It sounds really OP! I hope Instructor Lan willply with my requestter and show me the [Heavenly Yang Art] part before destroying all of that Ancient Martial Art Manual." Tang Li Xue murmured with an excited tone.
After calmed herself down, Tang Li Xue tried to approach the thirty giant lizards more.
She was tens of miles away from them before, so it was hard to see what those thirty giant lizards were currently doing when there was the thick mist covered her vision.
The thirty giant lizards were apparently having a rest in the grassy valley now.
It was not strange at all since these thirty giant lizards let out so many of their powerfulbined attacks to destroy the golden barrier just an hour ago or so.
They must be really exhausted now and probably need to have several hours of rest to restore themselves back to their peak.
"I still have so much time to think some sure ns¡ But I must make sure to make them busyter until Instructor Lan and the otherplete their task! Eh¡ that¡ Is that the leader of those giant lizards?!" Tang Li Xue said while widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise.
Thick brown scales, huge sturdy bat-like wings, and the eye-catching blood-colored crimson eyes¡ Such a familiar figure!
Tang Li Xue sucked a deep breath and said with a disbelief tone: "Fake Dragon?!"
Yes, the group leader of these giant Lizards was actually Tang Li Xue''s old mommy¡ err I mean her old friend, the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]!
Tang Li Xue felt so happy when she saw her first friend, and she almost impatiently jumped out from her hiding ce to greet the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard], but she immediately remembered Instructor Mei Lan''s advice for her.
¡..
"Do not forget to take off your ck cloak to show your fox tail and ears before you confront those lizardster." Instructor Mei Lan said her advice before Tang Li Xue left the Lin Family''s residence.
"Eh? Why?" Tang Li Xue asked.
"You wear that ck cloak to make yourself looks like a human, so you can blend easily with the other humans. But it will only make you die faster if you meet with those lizards while looking like a human. It would be even better if you return to your fox form when you meet with them." Instructor Mei Lan exined to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding and thought: ''That is right... All the beasts hate humans so much if we meet with any of the beasts while looking like a human, it is the same as asking to be killed by them!''
¡..
''Ah, I almost forgot it!'' Tang Li Xue giggled as she took off her ck cloak and stored it into her space pouch.
Tang Li Xue pondered for a while and decided to meet with Fake Dragon in her human form to surprise it.
Tang Li Xue jumped out from her hiding ce and ran toward the ce where those thirty giant lizards took their rest.
"Watch out! There is human here!" One of the giant lizards suddenly shouted out loud to warn the others.
The others swiftly stared at where Tang Li Xue came from.
Most of them immediately realized that Tang Li Xue was not a human from her fluttering gorgeous silver fox tail and ears, but some of them instantly attacked her without thinking!
[Acid Spray]!
[Corrosive Breath]!
Tang Li Xue swiftly used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] in reflex to dodge the iing attacks.
She gracefully lowered her body to avoid the first attack, and the green [Acid Spray] harmlessly passed through above Tang Li Xue''s head.
Then Tang Li Xue twisted her slender waist while jumped up to dodge the second attack. The [Corrosive Breath] hit the ground below her and made a horrible sizzling sound while some corrosive liquid almost sshed onto her, but Tang Li Xue suddenly spun on mid-air when she twisted her slender waist, and she sessfully dodged all the corrosive liquid.
"Stop!" Tang Li Xue and the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] shouted at the same time to stop them from attacking.
Tang Li Xue wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve and shouted angrily at them: "Are you blind?! Can you see that I have fox ears and tail?!"
"We¡ We are really sorry, Fox Missy¡ We have the human extermination mission now, so we are a bit nervous now." The lizards who attacked her immediately apologized to her.
"Fox Missy, we apologize for our carelessness, but this is not entirely our mistake. At least, you must tell us about your intention first before carelessly approaching us. If not, then we have the right to prevent you froming near us." [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] said to Tang Li Xue with a cold tone.
Tang Li Xue smiled smugly and replied to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]: "Aiya~! You act really cold and distant now after you have a high position in your n?! Hm... Don''t tell me you already forget your promise to me before?!"
The other lizards swiftly stared at their squad leader with wide eyes in amazement.
"Woah! Leader! Tsk, tsk, tsk¡ Here we thought about why our leader always rejected the girls from our Lizard n¡ So he already has a girl from Fox Race! Tsk, tsk, tsk¡ No wonder! Compared to the gentle and beautiful fox girl, our lizard girls are really too crude and fierce!" One of the lizards told the other lizards.
The lizards started to whisper with each other about it while stared at Tang Li Xue with ascivious gaze.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] stared at the other lizards with colder re, and it made the other lizards stopped whispering with each other, then their expression turned more serious.
"Fox Missy, I am sorry, but I am very sure that I do not know you. Please leave if you do not have something important to discuss with us!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] told Tang Li Xue with a hint of hostility in his tone.
Tang Li Xue frowned in displeasure and took off her fox mask from her peerlessly beautiful face as she said: "You?! This is me your ''Little Lass''! The tiny silver fox from Asura Demon Sect! We run away together from there before! Do you remember?! I am already grown up, so you maybe cannot recognize me anymore¡"
All the lizards including the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] stunned in an instant as if their souls were sucked by her when they saw Tang Li Xue''s beauty.
Her long silky straight silver hair was already very bewitching whenbined with her mesmerizing pair of topaz blue eyes and smooth snow-white skin, but when she took off her fox mask, her beauty became too stunning to describe.
"Oh, God¡ Can someone pinch me? I want to know if this is a dream or not. If this is a dream, I will certainly risk my life to touch that girl even if our leader killed meter! But if this is reality, then¡ forget it."
"This¡ is bad! It''s all over for me! I mean¡ I will probably see all the girls in our n as mud after this¡ So how could I marry one of themter?!"
"Are all the females from the fox race are this beautiful? I hear that there are a lot more females in the fox race than males¡ I want to offer myself to marry any single female fox... What do you think I should do for them to ept me?"
"You all should dream on! I would ept it even if they make me the second or third husband!"
All the lizards started to make a fuss and squabble with each other loudly, but all of their stares still locked on Tang Li Xue.
"SILENCE!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] roared out loud to wake the other lizard from their daze.
All the lizards quieted down again in an instant at the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''s sternmand.
"Fox Missy, I know you are a stunning beauty, but I will really appreciate it if you do not unt your appearance here! Please get away from us now or we will start to attack you soon! I will give you ten seconds to get lost from here!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] shouted to Tang Li Xue with a bone-piercing cold tone mixed with heavy murderous intent.
Chapter 315: Begone!
Chapter 315: Begone!
Tang Li Xue waspletely dumbfounded by the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''s harsh words.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] already started to countdown with its coarse voice: "10... 9... 8... 6... 5..."
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anger and shouted to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]: "You heartless liar! You promised that you will be my mount if I manage to release you before! But now, you act as if you have already forgotten everything about me!"
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] did not care and still counted down as if it did not hear her shouting: "4¡ 3¡ 2¡ 1¡ 0¡"
Tang Li Xue''s eyes started to get teary at the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] heartless words.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] was her first friend in this Immortal World.
When she felt so lonely, only the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] would talk and care about her... Only she would help her in time where she needs it before.
So, how could she just ept it when her first best friend in this world treated her in a very cold manner like this?!
Tang Li Xue did not know that when the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] saw her teary eyes, it started to hesitate.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''s heart felt so painful and suffocating as if it had just done something it should never do.
''Is it possible that I have really known her before? But... how is it possible?! Unless...'' The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] pondered carefully for a few moments and managed to grab some clues with its sharp wits.
"It''s already more than 10 seconds! Begone now!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] mercilessly shouted to Tang Li Xue while grabbed the back of Tang Li Xue''s cor with the tip of its giant ws and threw her far away.
Tang Li Xue wanted to struggle out from the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''s grasp and cursed at it harshly before, but she immediately canceled that intention when she saw the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] winked secretly at her.
Tang Li Xue pouted in anger, but she could only ept it when the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] threw her away.
The other giant lizards felt Tang Li Xue was really pitiful, and they wanted to say a few words to stand up for her, but when the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] red at them, the other giant lizards decided to not say anything anymore.
Tang Li Xue flew quite far away from the group of giant lizards.
Yaya sat silently on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head, but she immediately used a tiny bit of her wind power to slowdown Tang Li Xue''s falling speed, so Tang Li Xue couldnd easily on the ground.
"Thanks, Yaya!" Tang Li Xue patted Yaya''s head, and Yaya giggled happily at her.
"Yaya is really the best! Unlike of that ungrateful Fake Dragon! How could it pretend to not know me after I helped it out from Asura Demon Sect?! If it does not want to be my mount, then it just needs to say so! I will certainly not force it to do it anyway!" Tang Li Xue grumbled in anger.
Yaya only frowned and nodded in agreement at Tang Li Xue''s words.
Meanwhile, Little Loki onlyzily yawned as itid on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder as usual. Managing rtionships were not one of its skills as one of the Four Fiend Beasts, so it certainly could not help Tang Li Xue in this matter.
"But that ungrateful Fake Dragon winked at me just now... what does it mean? Does it pretend not to know me because of some other reason?" Tang Li Xue mumbled to herself and frowned deeper.
"What do you guys think about its wink? Is it signaled me to do something for it or maybe it told me to pretend not to know it too? Argh... This is so confusing!" Tang Li Xue groaned again.
"Ya, yayaaya~!" Yaya said to Tang Li Xue after thinking for a while.
"You mean that Fake Dragon asking me to wait for it? It will meet with meter? Really?" Tang Li Xue asked with a skeptic tone.
Little Loki still did not say anything, but it only nodded its tiny furry head, signified that it also agreed with Yaya''s spection.
Tang Li Xue thought for a few moments and pped her hands while said: "All right! Then let''s wait for that Fake Dragon toe! But we still need to keep our eyes on those giant lizards... We cannot let them attack Lin Family''s residence again before Instructor Lan and the otherspleted their tasks!"
Tang Li Xue nced at Yaya and Little Loki with a warm smile on her face.
''It is really nice... to have my own family now...'' Tang Li Xue thought as sheughed softly.
If there was no Yaya and Little Loki by her side tofort her at this time, she might have already cried by now because she got forgotten by Fake Dragon.
Tang Li Xue did not know if Fake Dragon really forgot about her or just pretending to forget about her, but her sharp [Extrasensory Perception] faintly detected from its stare and tone that Fake Dragon really did not remember her at all.
But this matter was really strange for Tang Li Xue to think of, so she decided to ask Fake Dragonter if it really decided toe to meet her.
Even if Fake Dragon lied to her, and it did note to meet with her, she would surelye over to it again to ask about it sooner orter.
After all, this case was really strange!
What if someone read Fake Dragon''s mind before and find the secret of her divine treasure, then that someone decided to erase a part of Fake Dragon''s mind about that?!
The more Tang Li Xue thought about it, the more certain she was about it!
''Anyway... I will wait patiently for now to get the answer from Fake Dragon!'' Tang Li Xue decided while keeping track of every movement of those thirty giant lizards from afar.
In her free time, Tang Li Xue decided to use her free Stat Points to increase her Agility stat from 1,000 to 1,500 and her Spirit stat from 1,000 to 1,100.
Her free Stat Points had shrunk from 729 to 129.
Tang Li Xue''s mind was assaulted by a terrible piercing headache for a few moments, but she already got used to it by now.
After the piercing headache was gone, Tang Li Xue felt her mind got a bit clearer, and her sense also got sharper. But her mind became quite exhausted now, and she really wanted to go to sleep.
Of course, Tang Li Xue knew that she could not fall asleep now, so she gritted her teeth to endure her sleepiness.
Tang Li Xue decided to move her body around to make herself get used to her new level of agility.
Her joint became a lot more flexible. Her reaction speed also turned out much faster than before.
She could even move much more agile now.
''Sigh... I need more free Stat Points, but why the hell my system did not give me any quest now?! Come on, system!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart, but her system still did not give her any reply.
Tang Li Xue could only sigh in frustration.
.....
...
.
The thirty giant lizards kept guarding full of vignce.
They were guarding each other in rotation. Fifteen giant lizards took asleep to recover their stamina while the other fifteen were surrounding them to guard them against any harm.
After 5 hours or so, the fifteen giant lizards who already recovered their stamina were guarding, while the other fifteen who were still exhausted fell asleep.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] took this chance to get away from the other giant lizards.
"I will patrol around here to check at our surroundings. All of you do not need to follow me, just guard here carefully." The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] ordered to its squad as it spread itsrge bat-like wings and pped it.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] swiftly flew away into the distance, leaving the other lizards.
"That Fake Dragon has gone! Let''s follow the direction of its flight!" Tang Li Xue whispered to wake Yaya, who was still sleeping at the top of a nearby tree branch.
Tang Li Xue brought Yaya away with her to follow the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard], while Little Loki never separated from Tang Li Xue and always liedzily on her right shoulder from the start.
With her improved speed plus her level 5 [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], Tang Li Xue could easily follow the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard], even though she was only sprinting on the ground while the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] was flying in the sky.
It did not take the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] too long before it descended back onto the ground after flying for tens of miles away from its group.
Tang Li Xue also did not use her [Ethereal Form] to sneak close to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard], so the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] could immediately notice Tang Li Xue when she approached.
Under the night sky, the tiny silver fox and the giant winged lizard met with each other again after almost a half year of separation, just like when they first meet in the Confinement Fortress before, but they were in a different situation right now.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] wanted to greet Tang Li Xue first, but it did not know what to talk about to her.
In the end, Tang Li Xue was the first one who asked the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]: "You... Please tell me honestly! Do you really not remember anything about me anymore? Or do you only pretend to not know me in front of those other lizards?"
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] did not say anything and only stared silently at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue did not know what it was thinking right now. It might be felt nostalgic after almost a half years of separation with her, or it might ponder if Tang Li Xue currently lied to it or not.
But the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] suddenly raised itsrge w and tapped Tang Li Xue''s forehead.
Tang Li Xue reflexively wanted to dodge it, but she decided not to avoid it in the end.
She only stood up without moving and let the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] tapped her forehead with its w.
Chapter 316: White Lies!
Chapter 316: White Lies!
Tang Li Xue still fully trusted the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard], even though it alreadypletely forgotten everything about her, but she did not believe that the nature of [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] would change so quickly in this half a year.
But Little Loki was different, it did not have any contact with this [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] before today, so it remained fully vignt to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard].
Little Loki sat straight on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder while its eerie third eye vigntly locked on the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard].
If the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] dared to do something untoward to Tang Li Xue, Little Loki would be ready to swallow the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] a whole even if Little Loki might need to sacrifice itself to do so.
Meanwhile, Yaya was a lot rxed than Little Loki since she already met with the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] before, even though it was only for a short time before they got separated, but she already knew that Tang Li Xue was really close to this [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard].
However, it did not mean Yaya could like the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] or fully trusted it because of that.
On the contrary, Yaya felt so much displeased with the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard], because this giant winged lizard almost made her mommy, Tang Li Xue, cry before.
If she was not afraid of being scolded by Tang Li Xue, Yaya would have already pounce to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] and taught this arrogant lizard a very harsh lesson!
Currently, Yaya was floating beside Tang Li Xue while ring at the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard].
CLAAAA?CK~!!!
Who knew that the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] only flicked Tang Li Xue''s forehead lightly with its giant w andughed at her!
"Bwahahaha¡ Of course, I remember you! How could I forget such a silly Little Lass like you?!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] said to Tang Li Xue with a mocked tone.
"You¡ You are really a big bast*rd! How could you make a joke like that, you jerk?!" Tang Li Xue shouted to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] with the tone filled with grievance while rubbed her reddened forehead.
"Stupid Little Lass, we are in front of my subordinated before¡ You do not want them to be suspicious about our secret, aren''t you?! So, how could I act so friendly with you in front of all of them?! If they reported about you to our higher up, they would certainly feel suspicious and investigate everything about you. If they managed to find some clues, then it would be really bad for both of us!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] exined clearly to Tang Li Xue.
"All right¡ all right! I understand! You are really still so talkative like before! Tsk¡ Here I think you have already be a lot cooler than before! It turns out you are still the same as usual." Tang Li Xue puffed her cheeks in annoyance.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] smiled as it stretched its giant w again and patted Tang Li Xue''s head, then said: "You have really grown up really quickly. Not only have you evolved and be a lot stronger than before, but you also be so beautiful that I almost cannot recognize you anymore."
"It seems you got treated really well in Fox''s Home. I am really relieved now. So, I do not need to worry sick about you anymore. It would probably not take too long for you to upy an important position there. At that time, you better not get your revenge and pretend to not recognize me too, okay?!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] said in a teasing tone.
"Dream on! Hehehe¡ At that time, not only I will pretend not to recognize you, but I would also order all of my subordinates to ride on the top of you too!" Tang Li Xue giggled while replied yfully.
"Oi, oi, oi, oi¡ How could you do that to me?! I am the one who brought you there!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] immediately protested.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and said: "You only bring me halfway there!"
Tang Li Xue and the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] were bantering, teasing, and joking at each other just like before after they escaped from Asura Demon Sect.
They were talking and chatting as if there was nothing wrong between them anymore.
But the real truth was¡
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] actually really did not remember anything about Tang Li Xue at all right now!
However, the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] trusted its own heart the most.
When it saw Tang Li Xue''s teary eyes before, the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] felt its heart was so painful, much more painful than being stabbed by thousand knives!
Therefore, the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] has believed that this Little Lass might be really held a very important position in its heart before.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''s previous head flick was to check if its past self ever put something to this girl.
The result was really shocking.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] managed to detect the [Winged Lizard Blessing] and the [Mind Seal] on Tang Li Xue!
The [Winged Lizard Blessing] was still all right. It was like a form of protection given by the elder to the younger generation, so if something dangerous happened to that younger generation, the elder could sense it and came to aid that younger generation.
For the Beast Race, the Blessing could also help to protect the souls of younger ones, so humans could not enve them with their taming techniques.
Of course, Tang Li Xue at her current level did not need this [Winged Lizard Blessing] anymore, so the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] could easily conclude that it met with Tang Li Xue in her younger and much weaker phase before she evolved like now.
The most important thing was its past self even gave Tang Li Xue the [Mind Seal] to seal a tiny part of her memories!
The [Mind Maniption] divine ability was the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] biggest secret.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] had always been afraid about its [Mind Maniption] divine ability would get known by someone someday, so it decided to never use it and never told anyone about it!
Anyone already knew that their Lizard n hated Human Race the most evenpared to the other Beast Race.
Imagine if the n Head of Lizard n known about its [Mind Maniption] divine ability, and ordered it to use it to brainwash or enve the younger generation from Human Race.
It was not like the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] care about the fate of the Human Race, but the situation of Immortal World right now waspletely bnced.
However, this bnce was very fragile.
If n Head of Lizard n used its [Mind Maniption] to ruin this fragile bnce between them, who knew if Undead Race would gain the advantage in the warter on because of the dispute between Lizard Race and Human Race and even used this chance to consume Beast Race and Human Race once and for all!
The reason why the Asura Demon Sect could know vaguely about the power of its [Mind Maniption] divine ability before was that they used their irvoyant Technique to peek into the future.
In short, its past self must have treasured this ''Little Lass'' so much that it did not mind the risk of its [Mind Maniption] got to know by the others.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] was really d to trust its heart, and believe in Tang Li Xue.
It stared at Tang Li Xue with a gentle smile on its scary lizard face, and then it used one of its divine abilities.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''srge lizard body started to shrink very quickly.
Tang Li Xue waspletely dumbfounded when the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] had changed into its human form.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''s human form was a quite handsome man with the age around 30 years old.
He looked a little old, and his handsomeness was still quite far from Hei Yinghao, Teacher Li Wei, and Xiao Hei. But he certainly looked more mature and heroic than any of them right now.
"You¡ You¡" Tang Li Xue stuttered in shock while pointed her index finger at the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard].
"I? I, what? Do I look so handsome right now, and it makes you stupefied that much?!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] yfully said to Tang Li Xue.
"Uh¡ No¡ you actually look a bit old and ugly¡ I mean I always thought of you as a female lizard before! I even always called you Mommy inside my mind!" Tang Li Xue honestly blurted out.
"You! What an insolent Little Lass?!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] gritted his teeth in anger while pointed back at Tang Li Xue.
Both of them nced at each other silently for a few moments beforeughing out loud together.
Suddenly, Tang Li Xue jumped toward the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] and hugged him tightly.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''s mind felt nk for a while, but he also hugged Tang Li Xue back.
"I miss you so much, Fake Dragon¡" Tang Li Xue said with teary eyes.
"Me too, Little Lass¡" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] replied.
"..... Will you treat me well too in the future?" Tang Li Xue asked with a reluctant tone.
"Definitely!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] immediately replied with a certain tone.
"All right¡ I hope¡ you will always remember your answer today." Tang Li Xue murmured to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] again.
Actually, with her sharp [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue already detected that the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] had lied to her.
Tang Li Xue could not tell clearly which part of the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''s words was a lie, but her hunch told her that the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] was actually really have forgotten everything about her.
He only pretended to remember about her... to not hurt her... to not make her sad.
But his words really made Tang Li Xue felt touched right now.
Even though the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] hadpletely forgotten everything about her, but he still decided to put his full trust in her.
He still pampered and cared for her just like before¡
"Certainly!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] with a certain tone again.
Chapter 317: Never Show Any Mercy!
Chapter 317: Never Show Any Mercy!
After the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] hugged Tang Li Xue for a few minutes, he turned back again to his dragon-like form.
"So, you can change into the human form too... Why do you so rarely change into your human form and always in your beast form?" Tang Li Xue asked with a curious tone.
"We, the Lizard n, are different from your Fox Race. My Lizard n always hates Human Race very much, so we would never change into a human form unless we faced a life-threatening danger." The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] exined to Tang Li Xue.
"Come to think of it¡ why do you not use your human form to escape from Asura Demon Sect before?" Tang Li Xue asked again curiously.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] rolled his eyes and replied: "Do you really think that it would be that easy to escape from the [Blood Sealing Chain]?"
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] exined: "The [Blood Sealing Chain] drained all of my powers before, and I cannot use any of my divine abilities except for my [Nirvana me] that I slowly umte inside my body."
Tang Li Xue and the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] chatted about many things. Tang Li Xue even told him about her purpose ofing here.
"Oh? So, your team''s mission is to find that Ancient Martial Art Manual and destroy it?" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] asked Tang Li Xue for confirmation.
Tang Li Xuezily sat on the grassy ground and leaned her shoulder at the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''s giant lizard body while replied: "Yep! That is why you must make your group wait for us to find that Ancient Martial Art Manual first before attacking that Lin Family''s residence."
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] thought for a while before said: "That is not a big problem, but I cannot make my squad wait for too long or they will be suspicious of me. Those people from Oracle Mountain Sect are not a group of idiots too. They should have already contact their sect to ask for more backup, so our time is actually very limited."
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in worry after she heard the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''s answer.
"It seems quite bad, isn''t it? Maybe I should contact my Instructor to tell her about this?" Tang Li Xue said with a worried tone.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] stopped Tang Li Xue and said: "You do not need to worry. All Instructors of Inspector sses from Fox Race have high intelligence and so much experience in that field. All of them have much sharper minds and a lot smarter than me, so there is no way she did not realize this before!"
"In my opinion, the reason for your Instructor still has notpleted the task yet until now was because she used this chance to teach your teammate and let them gain more experience." The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] concluded his exnation.
"Each of Beast Race has its own area of advantage over the others. Lizard n has strong bodies. Bird n is the sovereign of the skies because they have a pair of fast wings. Sea Beast Races has their high poption. While your Fox Race has this." The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] said as he poked Tang Li Xue''s forehead again.
"My Fox Race well-known for our high intelligence?" Tang Li Xue asked.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] rolled his eyes again at Tang Li Xue''s ignorance and exined: "Of course! Why do you think that your race has such very abundant resources? Because your Fox Race is well-known for its wide informationwork, and all the other Beast Race buy countless important information from your Fox Race daily!"
"Countless foxes even sessfully infiltrate deeply into countless human organizations. If Human Race nned something bad for our Beast Race, Fox Race should be the first one to know! For the entire Beast Races, the Fox Race is the unreceable eyes, ears, and nose!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] said with awe.
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in disbelief, and she quickly nodded her head to show she already understood.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] smiled and said: "But I am really surprised that you did not say anything to defend those humans."
"Eh? Why do I need to defend those humans?" Tang Li Xue asked in puzzlement.
"Because you always lenient to humans..." The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] tilted his giant head a bit when he replied. His memories about Tang Li Xue had already been erased, but strangely, he still knew this part of Tang Li Xue''s personality.
"I... Sigh... " Tang Li Xue tried to exin herself, but she could only sigh.
Tang Li Xue told her meeting with the pitiful female lizard in the underground dungeon to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard].
For some reason, she did not feel any pity for the Lin Family because of what they did to this pitiful female lizard.
Not only the Lin Family attacked their of the lizard family first, but they also killed all of the lizard family''s children and caught the female lizard, then treated that female lizard so cruelly like that.
.....
...
.
While Tang Li Xue chatted peacefully with the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard], the situation in the Lin Family''s residence was not looking good at all for Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were currently interrogating several people from both the Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect, but they still refused to say anything about the whereabouts of the other half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual.
Several hours ago, after Tang Li Xue left Lin Family''s residence, Instructor Mei Lan gave the task to find the clue about the whereabouts of the other half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Instructor Mei Lan gave them 10 hours time limit toplete this task, but right now, their time limit was almost over, and they still failed to find any clue about it!
"Maybe... they really do not know about the location of the half Ancient Martial Art Manual? Let''s just kill them and look for a few more important people to interrogate?!" Bing Yi frowned and suggested to Hei Yinghao.
Hei Yinghao even already used his [Lightning of Destruction] to torture these people just now.
Every part of the body that was touched by his [Lightning of Destruction] turned into dust in an instant, and these people could only scream in fear and horror.
"Sigh... But these people are the close confidant of those important people. Are they really do not know any crucial information about the whereabouts of that half Ancient Martial Art Manual?! Moreover, the cultivations of those important people are quite high!" Hei Yinghao gnashed his teeth and said with a frustrated tone.
Bing Yi also shrugged her shoulder in helplessness.
.....
Both of them also did not want to do this task. Although they did not hold anypassion to any humans like Tang Li Xue, but cruelly torturing them and forcing them to say the crucial information they have known would leave a bad taste in their mouths.
Both of them prefer to kill the humans directly rather than toying and torturing them slowly like these.
But Instructor Mei Lan insisted that they must be able to do this in the near future.
Instructor Mei Lan said to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao strictly before she gave them this task: "Little Xue has all-rounded skills and many life-saving skills. She can be a perfect scout-type inspector in the future, but currently, she has a fatal weakness. She is too softhearted! That is why I want you two to cover this weakness of her as her teammate for now."
Bing Yi always treated Tang Li Xue really well, but she was actually a cold-hearted fox.
Meanwhile, Hei Yinghao already traveled to many dangerous ces and faced many enemies. He also already ughtered many creatures in his adventure including humans.
The reason why Myriad Fox Academy grouped their new students into three foxes per group was for them to cover each other weaknesses like this.
At first, Instructor Mei Lan did not mind it too much, because she decided to let the three of them learn from each other for now.
But she suddenly changed her mind and hastened their training session, because the Fox Hunting Festival would being soon!
There were countless cultivation resources ced in the separated space where the Fox Hunting Festival would be held.
If Tang Li Xue and the others could survive longer in that separated space, they would be able to gain so much advantage and increase their strength by leaps and boundster!
"Remember to always remain vignt, and never show any mercy to your enemies!" Instructor Mei Lan gave Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi her advice before chasing them out of her room to do their task.
.....
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao decided to y all of the people they interrogated before.
Hei Yinghao also used his [Lightning of Destruction] to get rid of their corpses, so they would not leave any trace.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were heading together to the courtyard of Lin Family''s elders. They wanted to catch a few Lin Family''s elders to interrogate them too.
"This... will be really hard! I mean... killing them is not hard, but abducting them without attracting any attention from other people seems so hard! It is almost impossible! These elders are the martial art expert at Foundation Establishment Stage!" Hei Yinghao frowned deeply andined.
Bing Yi stared coldly at Hei Yinghao and said: "Then do you have any better idea?!"
Chapter 318: Discord!
Chapter 318: Discord!
Hei Yinghao thought for a moment, but he could only shake his head and said: "Looks like we have no other choice¡ You will go first and use your [Frozen st] to freeze him, then I will use my [Blood Burst] and [Blood Ignition] to knock him off in one move. How about it?"
Bing Yi red at Hei Yinghao and said with a tone filled with annoyance: "Why do I need to listen to you? Who do you think you are? How dare you order me around?!"
Hei Yinghao became speechless in an instant, then shouted back in anger: "Do you really think I want to spend my precious time with you?! If not for this task from Instructor Mei Lan, I would have already left you alone and chase after my Little Xue by now!"
Bing Yi rolled her eyes andzily replied: "Silly Fox¡ If not for this task from Instructor Mei Lan, you will not be the first one to chase after Little Xue, but me!"
This was Instructor Mei Lan''s miscalction.
When there was Tang Li Xue among them, these two were usually acted friendly and tolerated each other very much, but without Tang Li Xue, they kept arguing with each other on and on, wasted so much of their time.
After arguing fiercely for 15 minutes or so, Hei Yinghao finally got sick over it and said: "All right, shut up! Then we will do it just like before! You will target one, and I will target one too! We will bring them to Little Xue''s room and interrogate them together thereter!"
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi decided to split up and targeted the two different higher-ups from the Lin Family.
Instructor Mei Lan who had been stealthily following them from behind had shaken her head in disappointment.
''Sigh¡ these two are really¡ far worse than I have imagined before!'' Instructor Mei Lan sighed, but she still decided to quietly follow them again from behind.
Although, Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi had split up, but the courtyard of their targets were close to each other, so Instructor Mei Lan could still observe the movements of those two disciples of her.
This was themon problem faced by the team formed for the first time.
Usually, they would fight to determine the team leader, and the other two must follow that team leader''s orderter on.
However, Tang Li Xue''s team had never faced this kind of dispute.
Both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao had decided to follow Tang Li Xue and make her their leader. Even though Tang Li Xue never ordered them around, but both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao would do everything they can to help Tang Li Xue toplete the mission.
However, Instructor Mei Lan thought their synergies with each other were so good before. That was the reason why she decided to bring them along with her when she carried her mission like this.
''I am really too hasty this time¡ It seems they are not ready for this.'' Instructor Mei Lan thought as she pondered for a while.
''I will try to warn them harshlyter, then I will see their next performanceter in the next mission. If they still act like this, then...'' Instructor Mei Lan squinted her eyes.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao moved swiftly and sneaked silently into their target''s ce.
They jumped from the wall and entered from the backyard, then easily broke the lock of the backdoor.
But the cultivators at Foundation Establishment Stage already have sharp senses while Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao did not have any stealth-type divine ability like Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form], passive ability: [Conceal], or learn the [Art of Concealment], so they immediately got discovered.
"Who is there?!"
"Who dares to sneak into my ce?!"
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao knew that they had already been discovered by the people in the house, so both of them immediately rushed in and decided to attack the people in the house!
However, before they could start the fight¡
[Heavenly Sound]... Third Song: Dreamy Luby!
Anguid but nice to hear song started to enter everyone''s ears.
Everyone in the radius of this song started to feel very sleepy including Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
One by one began to fall deep asleep, and their bodies fell onto the ground. They were even snoring loudly.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao tried to resist it, but even they could onlyst for a few minutes before fell into a deep sleep too.
¡..
¡
.
Both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were thrown into a pool in the courtyard, and they immediately opened their eyes in panic, then swam onto the edge of the pool.
After they jumped out from the pool, they immediately realized that the one who had thrown them into the pool was Instructor Mei Lan.
"Instructor Lan, why¡ why do you throw us into here?" Hei Yinghao asked.
Instructor Mei Lan red at both of them, but Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao did not dare to see into her eyes.
"You two really make me very disappointed. Don''t you two know what teamwork means? Also... your way of thinking is too rigid and inflexible! Why do you two need to slip into their house? Sigh..." Instructor Mei Lan did not know what to say to them anymore since there were just too many things that went wrong.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao felt even guiltier and did not dare to raise their heads.
Instructor Mei Lan thought for a few moments before took out a crystal ball from her space pouch and gave them to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
"Instructor Lan, what is this?" Bing Yi asked curiously.
"This is the spying-type device. As long as I wear this white hairpin, you can see what I do through this crystal ball. I want you to go back to Little Xue''s room and look at how Iplete this task. Do you two understand?" Instructor Mei Lan exined as she showed them amon-looking white hairpin.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao quickly nodded their head simultaneously and quickly ran back to Tang Li Xue''s room.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and walked toward the courtyard of Lin Family''s Patriarch.
When she almost arrived there, Instructor Mei Lan took out a jug of wine before approached the courtyard of Lin Family''s Patriarch.
She also pulled her ck hood a bit to make her elegant beautiful face more visible to anyone who was looking at her.
Instructor Mei Lan knocked at the gate of the Lin Family''s Patriarch ce a few times.
Not long after that, the butler of Lin Family''s Patriarch came to open the gate, and he greeted Instructor Mei Lan politely.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently and said: "I only want to drink this Nine Fragrance Wine with Lin Family''s Patriarch while chatting with him for a bit. But if Lin Family''s Patriarch is too busy right now, then I can..."
Before Instructor Mei Lan finished her words, Lin Family''s Patriarch already replied from inside: "Pleasee inside, Miss Envoy. I hope you do not mind my humble residence."
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao, who watched at Instructor Mei Lan from the crystal ball, had dropped their jaws in awe at Instructor Mei Lan''s way.
She just walked into the courtyard of Lin Family''s Patriarch tantly!
But Lin Family''s Patriarch was an expert at Core Formation Stage. He was on apletely different level with the elders at Foundation Establishment Stage!
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao started to feel really worried about Instructor Mei Lan''s safety.
Meanwhile, the butler led Instructor Mei Lan to enter the courtyard and heading toward the inner garden where Lin Family''s Patriarch already waited for her.
Instructor Mei Lan started to assess Lin Family''s Patriarch the moment she saw him.
She already saw Lin Family''s Patriarch before when he greeted her in front of the entrance of Lin Family''s residence, but she could not evaluate him at that time since there were too many people previously.
Lin Family''s Patriarch was already a few hundred years old, but he still looked young, maybe around 25-30 years old.
His appearance was average at best, but the pressure emitted from his body was quite scary.
The eyes of Lin Family''s Patriarch immediately brightened a lot when he saw Instructor Mei Lan''s charming beauty.
Instructor Mei Lan''s beauty gave a different feeling from Tang Li Xue''s stunning beauty.
If Tang Li Xue''s beauty could make anyone who looked at her dumbfounded, then Instructor Mei Lan''s beauty would make anyone who saw her feel awe andfortable.
It would make her appear gentle and graceful. Anyone will certainly have a good feeling toward her after they saw her appearance.
Lin Family''s Patriarch stood up and saluted Instructor Mei Lan while smiled at her: "Miss Envoy, you are really beautiful. I, Lin Xuan, really admire you very much."
Instructor Mei Lan covered her mouth with her long sleeve and giggled softly.
She appeared so elegant and lovely right now. Even Lin Family''s Patriarch could almost not be able to hold the urge to hug her right now.
But Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao already shuddered in fear and horror when they saw how Instructor Mei Lan acting.
Not to mention Lin Family''s Patriarch, even both of them would fall into Instructor Mei Lan''s sweet trap if they did not know Instructor Mei Lan''s objective right now!
"So the name of Lin Family''s Patriarch is Lin Xuan. Patriarch Lin is really a sweet talker. Patriarch Lin does not need to be so polite to me. You can call me by my name, Mei Hua." Instructor Mei Lan said while giving fist palm salute to Patriarch Lin, but her gentle and enticing smile never left her beautiful face.
Chapter 319: A Deadly Poisonous Apple!
Chapter 319: A Deadly Poisonous Apple!
"Mei Hua¡ What a beautiful name! Truly a befitting name for a charming person like you!" Patriarch Lin generously praised while invited Instructor Mei Lan to sit across him.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded to Patriarch Lin and sat on the chair across the Patriarch Lin. She also put the jug of wine onto the table in front of her.
"This Nine Fragrance Wine is made from nine different kinds of rare flowers mixed with the water from the Spirit Spring. I just want Patriarch Lin to taste it while chatting with me to calm my tense nerve." Instructor Mei Lan said softly as her face blushed slightly.
Right now, she looked like a simple-hearted maiden who currently very nervous because she was in a dangerous situation where those thirty giant lizards could attack any time.
Patriarch Linughed and said: "Of course, I am more than willing to apany Miss Mei to chat."
Instructor Mei Lan smiled with a gentle expression to Patriarch Lin while uncorked the bottle of Nine Fragrance Wine and poured it onto the two cups on the table.
"Cheers!" Instructor Mei Lan raised her cup and drank the content in one gulp.
Patriarch Lin was an old veteran who already led the Lin Family for hundreds of years. He was not a dumbstruck old fool who will fall into any honey trap so easily. If he was that type of person, then the Lin Family would already fall apart a long time ago.
After he made sure that Instructor Mei Lan already drank the wine first, Patriarch Lin also raised his cup and said: "Cheers too!"
Patriarch Lin drank the content of his cup in one gulp, just like Instructor Mei Lan, but he secretly used his Qi to wrap the wine after it entered his throat.
"This wine is really amazing! It is quite strong, but the taste is incredibly good. It also contains rich spirit energy that can increase the speed of our cultivation! Miss Mei, can I know where do you buy this wine?" Patriarch Lin praised Instructor Mei Lan''s wine and asked where it was from.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled happily and said: "I am really d that my wine suit Patriarch Lin''s taste. This Nine Fragrance Wine is actually my handmade. If Patriarch Lin really likes it, then I can give you a few jars of this wer."
Of course, this Nine Fragrance Wine was not Instructor Mei Lan''s handmade! She bought it from the tavern in Myriad Foxes Academy before.
The price of this Nine Fragrance Wine was not expensive at all, and the tavern in Myriad Foxes Academy has many kinds of wine which far more expensive than this one.
But Instructor Mei Lan would never buy or give such expensive wine for any humans!
After that, Instructor Mei Lan and Patriarch Lin started to chat happily with each other about wine.
Sometimes they would teasing, praising,ughing, and giggling at each other.
Then Instructor Mei Lan started to tell the sad story about her life.
Of course, it was only a fake story! There was no way she would tell the real story about her life to Patriarch Lin.
It was only meant to draw some sympathy from Patriarch Lin.
Instructor Mei Lan cleverly told about how she lost her family since she was little and finally got adopted by the Elder from Immortal Sword Sect, while she also asked about Patriarch Lin''s family.
However, Patriarch Lin only vaguely answered Instructor Mei Lan''s question.
Instructor Mei Lan still maintained her charming and gentle smile while thought: ''As I expect, the Lin Family already evacuated their wives and their younger generations to hide in another ce, possibly in the nearby city. Only the butlers, servants, outer disciples, inner disciples, elders, and this Patriarch Lin are still here.''
''I do not know if they bring some copies with them, but the real half of Ancient Martial Art Manual should be in this Patriarch Lin''s hand. Because he needs to use it as a bargaining chip with Oracle Mountain Sect and Immortal Sword Sect to protect their family.'' Instructor Mei Lan concluded.
After chatting for about an hour or so, Instructor Mei Lan borrowed a Guqin from Patriarch Lin and decided to y some songs to entertain Patriarch Lin.
The moment when Instructor Mei Lan plucked the strings of the Guqin, the lovely melody started to y out, made everyone who heard it subconsciously closed their eyes and smiled in enjoyment.
Combined with Instructor Mei Lan''s sweet voice and her bewitching gentle smile, it was enough to make everyone drunk in her charm.
This was the reason why Tang Li Xue''s charm was still not enough to match Instructor Mei Lan even with her unmatched beautiful face.
Unlike Tang Li Xue''s tomboyish manner, Instructor Mei Lan always looked gentle and elegant. She also a master in singing, painting, and ying musical instruments.
Any man who spent some time with Instructor Mei Lan would only crave to have her more and more.
Of course, it would only work if they did not know her true nature like Teacher Li Wei¡ As for Hei Yinghao, he already trembled in fear with Bing Yi in Tang Li Xue''s room.
Even Hei Yinghao did not have any confidence in himself if he was in the same situation as Patriarch Lin, since he would probably act the same as him if he never met with his Tang Li Xue and have known Instructor Mei Lan''s true nature.
Currently, Patriarch Lin was alreadypletely drunk in Instructor Mei Lan''s charm.
His ears kept listening to Gujin''s beautiful melody and Instructor Mei Lan''s lovely song, while his eyes could no longer look away from Instructor Mei Lan''s mesmerizing gentle smile and enchanting face.
A tint of lust and possessiveness started to invade his heart, and it got even more intense as more time went on.
After Instructor Mei Lan finished her song, Patriarch Lin immediately pped his hands in admiration and praised Instructor Mei Lan even more exaggerated than before.
"Patriarch Lin, I will feel more embarrassed if you are praising me that much¡ Hehehe¡" Instructor Mei Lan giggled shyly as her enchanting face reddened more like a ripe apple.
It made Patriarch Lin turned giddy and impatient. He could not wait to take a bite and taste this ripe apple!
Unfortunately, he did not know that this ripe apple was actually a deadly poisonous apple.
After that, Patriarch Lin and Instructor Mei Lan drank more wine together while kept chatting.
Patriarch Lin even generously took out his most prized wine, but the alcohol content was much higher than Instructor Mei Lan''s Nine Fragrance Wine.
Both Patriarch Lin and Instructor Mei Lan drank the wine happily for one hour before Instructor Mei Lan said that she must go back now.
Patriarch Lin offered to escort her back to her ce, but Instructor Mei Lan refused it by saying that she did not want to trouble him.
However, when Instructor Mei Lan stood from her seat... she identally stumbled forward!
Patriarch Lin moved swiftly to catch Instructor Mei Lan''s body before she could drop onto the ground.
But when he hugged Instructor Mei Lan''s body, the floral fragrance from her had drifted into Patriarch Lin''s nose.
Moreover, the softness of Instructor Mei Lan''s body already drove him onto the edge of insanity from her irresistible charm.
"Miss Mei! Miss Envoy Mei!" Patriarch Lin called Instructor Mei Lan several times while patted her back gently, but it seems Instructor Mei Lan was already too drunk to wake up.
A glint of delight shed in the deepest part of Patriarch Lin''s eyes.
Patriarch Lin immediately carried the currently unconscious Instructor Mei Lan like a princess into his mansion.
The guards and head butler immediately saw Patriarch Lin carried Instructor Mei Lan, but they did not dare to say anything and only bowed their heads respectfully to Patriarch Lin.
"No one can enter my room or bother me from now on! If anyonees to see me, just say that I am not at home! Understand?!" Patriarch Lin ordered all of his people with a firm tone.
"Understood, Patriarch!" All of the people in the mansion replied at the same time.
Patriarch Lin carried Instructor Mei Lan into his own room and swiftly locked the door. He even turned on the device to turn his room into soundproof.
Meanwhile, both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were shouting at the same time!
Of course, they were not shouting because they were worried about Instructor Mei Lan.
On the contrary, they were shouting in excitement because they were impressed at Instructor Mei Lan''s method!
While they were struggling on how to abduct the elders, their Instructor Mei Lan could make the person with the greatest authority here brought her into an isted room!
Wasn''t this the same as offering himself to get interrogated by Instructor Mei Lan?!
Even a Core Formation Stage Expert like Patriarch Lin, if he locked himself with their Instructor Mei Lan inside an isted room, it was clearly much more dangerous than bringing a hungry monster and locked himself inside the room with it!
Just like what Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao had expected, Instructor Mei Lan immediately bared her fangs after Patriarch Lin carried her onto his bed.
Instructor Mei Lan silently took out the folding hand fan hidden inside her long sleeve and¡
Instructor Mei Lan used the poisonous dagger hidden in the folding hand fan to stab at Patriarch Lin''s Dantian!
PPPUUUUFFFF~!!!
Patriarch Lin carried Instructor Mei Lan in princess carry, and she stuck very closely to him.
So, Patriarch Lin couldn''t see what Instructor Mei Lan did, nor he had enough time to dodge her sudden attack!
Instructor Mei Lan''s hidden poisonous dagger lodged so deeply into Patriarch Lin''s Dantian and pierced at his core at the center of his Dantian!
Just like the role of the Beast Core to any beast, the core of Core Formation Stage Expert hold the same importance to the human cultivator!
When the core had broken, it meant the cultivation of that human cultivator waspletely crippled, just like what happen to Patriarch Lin right now!
Chapter 320: Interrogation!
Chapter 320: Interrogation!
When Patriarch Lin felt stabbing pain from his Dantian, he immediately threw away Instructor Mei Lan, who was in his arms.
Unfortunately, it was already toote. Patriarch Lin could feel that his cultivation was slipping continuously out from his body like the water draining out of the pool.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan had already anticipated it, so when Patriarch Lin threw her away, she immediately somersaulted on mid-air before her feet gracefullynded on the ground.
"YOU!!! Cough¡ Cough¡" Patriarch Lin shouted while pointed his index finger at Instructor Mei Lan angrily. However, he coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood before he could finish saying his words.
"Patriarch Lin, I already ruined your core, so you are only a crippled person right now. I suggest you give up your futile resistance. Be a good boy and surrender yourself to me. Maybe I will give you some rewardster." Instructor Mei Lan said with a teasing tone with an enticing gentle smile on her face.
"B*tch! Even if I die today, I must bring you down with me!" Patriarch Lin screamed in anger.
Fresh blood kept dripping out from his mouth, and his eyes were bloodshot.
Patriarch Lin was no longer looked like a dignified man, but he looked like an insane person right now.
As if he was losing all of hismon senses, Patriarch Lin pounced toward Instructor Mei Lan in anger and hatred.
However, it was impossible for the current Patriarch Lin to fight against Instructor Mei Lan.
Even if Patriarch Lin still has his cultivation and fought against Instructor Mei Lan with all of his strength, he would probably only have less than a 50% chance of winning. Let alone now when his cultivation and strength continuously flowed out from his body like a punctured balloon.
Instructor Mei Lan agilely stepped aside to dodge Patriarch Lin and swiftly kicked his abdomen, which made the poisonous dagger lodged in his Dantian pierced much deeper!
Patriarch Lin spurted a few mouthfuls of blood from his mouth as he limply kneeled on the ground and groaned in pain.
Instructor Mei Langiggled happily and said: "Patriarch Lin, I actually really want to y around and flirt with you for a bit longer, but unfortunately, my time is very limited right now. So, you can tell me everything you know by yourself or maybe you will like it more if I help you to do it? Which one do you like more?"
Her speaking tone was so seductive, and her honey-coated voice was so sweet as if she was coaxing Patriarch Lin to talk.
"Hehehehe¡ You want to know the whereabouts of the Ancient Martial Art Manual?! DREAM ON! I will never tell you even if you kill or torture me!" Patriarch Lin grinned maniacally and replied to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lansighed in disappointment and said: "Aihhh~!!! I want to do this in a more peaceful method and give you a swift painless death, but it seems you do not appreciate it at all.?What a pity?! Oh well, you forced me to do this¡ It looks like I do not have another choice other than doing this in a hard way."
"Just kidding~!!! Actually, I like the hard way much more than the peaceful method. Patriarch Lin, it seems we are really well-matched with each other. I hope you will enjoy our y."Instructor Mei Lan said as she giggled at Patriarch Lin. She looked like a mischievous young girl who yed a prank on an adult man right now.
Instructor Mei Lan gently took Patriarch Lin''s limp pair of hands and then¡ forcefully twisted it until it made a loud cracking sound!
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH~!!!"Patriarch Lin screamed out loud in pain.
His cultivation was crippled, so he did not have enough strength to fight back against Instructor Mei Lan.
Moreover, the corrosive poison from the poisonous dagger that lodged deep inside his Dantian already started to assault his inner organs.
Even Bing Yi and HeiYinghao could not bear to watch the tragic fate of Patriarch Lin.
Fall into the hands of their sadistic Instructor Mei Lan in that powerless condition was the worst possible ending for Patriarch Lin.
It would be much better for him if he just died under thebined attack of those thirty giant lizards before rather than fall into Instructor Mei Lan''s hand like now.
Instructor Mei Lan tortured Patriarch Lin for an hour or so until his mind on the verge of breaking.
Patriarch Lin even told Instructor Mei Lan false information, which somehow got discovered almost immediately by Instructor Mei Lan.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan returned his deed in an instant by letting him enjoying more of her painful torture.
"Looks like It is the time..." Instructor Mei Lan murmured as she used her divine ability on Patriarch Lin.
[Heavenly Sound] divine ability... Second Song: Hypnosis Melody!
This skill was the reason why Instructor Mei Lan must keep cruelly torturing Patriarch Lin until his mind almost copsed.
Because this [Second Song: Hypnosis Melody] would never work on people with strong willpower and powerful cultivation.
For this skill to work,?Instructor Mei Lan must cripple Patriarch Lin''s cultivation first before chipped his willpower bit by bit until it weakened considerably, just like now.
Patriarch Lin''s stare, which filled with anger and hatred, turned nk when he heard the soothing song from Instructor Mei Lan.
After that, Instructor Mei Lan asked one question after another to Patriarch Lin which was still under hypnotic effect.
Patriarch Lin readily answered Instructor Mei Lan''s every question in detail.
After Instructor Mei Lan''s targets fell under the control of her [Second Song: Hypnosis Melody], there was no secret she could not know from her targets.
She could even know how many times that Patriarch Lin had cheated in his entire life with other women other than his wife or how many illegitimate children he had with the other women if she wanted to.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan did not care about any of that and only asked the crucial information about their mission from Patriarch Lin.
Such as the location of the half Ancient Martial Art Manual...
Do you make any copy of that half Ancient Martial Art Manual?
How many copies do you make? Who do you give it to?
The whereabouts of the rest of the Lin Family...
Did they get protection from anyone like the people from the Oracle Mountain Sect?
Instructor Mei Lan even asked every detail of the smallest things to minimize the risk and maximize the chance of sess.
She even asked about the ce where the female lizard was imprisoned, even though Tang Li Xue already told her about it in detail.
It was not because she was afraid that Tang Li Xue lied to her, but because she was afraid that there was an invisible dangerous trap there, which Tang Li Xue had missed before.
After getting so much information from Patriarch Lin, Instructor Mei Lan decided not to kill Patriarch Lin yet and even helped him to remove the corrosive poison from her poisonous dagger.
Of course, it was not because she decided to spare Patriarch Lin''s life, but because she felt that this Patriarch Lin still held so much important information in his mind, so Instructor Mei Lan decided to bring him out with her to extract more information from himter.
The current Patriarch Lin did not have any of his cultivation anyway. He was only a crippled person now, so he could not even threaten any of her students.
Instructor Mei Lan threw Patriarch Lin into her medium-rank space pouch and told her green-colored Wind Riding Bird to always keep an eye on him inside there.
Instructor Mei Lan also did not forget to take all of Patriarch Lin''s spatial devices such as the spatial ring, spatial pendant, and so on before that.
"Let''s see... He said he stored the key of the secret room in his spatial ring." Instructor Mei Lan murmured as she took Patriarch Lin''s spatial ring.
Every beast certainly could not open any human''s spatial ring because they need Qi to do so, while Beast Race only has Vitality Energy unless they managed to evolve into Spirit Beast and changed into their human form.
This was themon knowledge of all people from the Human Race.
But... how could the high intelligence Fox Race still did not have any way to crack it after thousands of years?!
Instructor Mei Lan leisurely took out a twopartment ss box from her space pouch.
She put Patriarch Lin''s spatial ring in one of the twopartment, while she put an empty backup space pouch into the otherpartment.
Instructor Mei Lan closed the twopartment ss box for a few moments before opened it again.
Surprisingly, Patriarch Lin''s spatial ring had already shattered to pieces, but all of its content was already moved to the space pouch inside the twopartment ss box!
Instructor Mei Lan rummaged the content of the space pouch for a while before finally managed to find the key for the secret room.
The secret room was located inside Patriarch Lin''s room and that was where Instructor Mei Lan was right now.
Instructor Mei Lan easily found the secret underground room and opened the hidden door with the key in her hand.
It did not take long for Instructor Mei Lan to find the half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual stored inside there and took it.
Instructor Mei Lan did not take any other thing stored inside there. She even quickly made a fake Ancient Martial Art Manual and stored it back into the secret underground room.
Instructor Mei Lan locked the secret underground room back and hid it back just like before.
She also did not forget to clean up all the blood, trace, and mark in Patriarch Lin''s room.
No one would find anything strange in this room even if Patriarch Lin went missing for several more days from now.
At that time, this Lin Family''s residence would probably already raze to the ground by those giant lizards.
Afterpleted all of her tasks there, Instructor Mei Lan easily slipped out from Patriarch Lin''s mansion without being found by the others and went back to Tang Li Xue''s room to meet again with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Actually, this incident was not entirely Patriarch Lin''s mistake. Even if the other female assassin employed the same method as Instructor Mei Lan, their chance of seeding was almost none.
Patriarch Lin was an old veteran with several hundred years old life experience after all. He has very rich experience in facing all kinds of assassination.
But Instructor Mei Lan''s [Art of Concealment] had already reached a much higher level than Tang Li Xue.
She could conceal all of her true feeling and intent perfectly, including her killing intent.
All the old experts in the Core Formation Stage like Mo Chonglin or Patriarch Lin have very sharp perception. They could immediately sense any hatred, anger, or killing intent from the others toward them.
Chapter 321: The Next Task!
Chapter 321: The Next Task!
But Patriarch Lin''s sharp perception was the reason for his own downfall this time when he was facing Instructor Mei Lan.
Patriarch Lin put so much confidence in his sharp perception to detect any malicious intent or killing intent from anyone near him, but he failed to notice any of that intent from Instructor Mei Lan, which led him to his current fate.
"Do you understand anything from my action?"Instructor Mei Lan asked Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao with a doubtful tone.
Bing Yi and HeiYinghao pondered for a few moments before replied Instructor Mei Lan''s question.
"Instructor Lan, how could I seduce a man if I am a male fox?" Hei Yinghao put a puzzled expression and asked back to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes in disappointment. She ignored HeiYinghao and asked Bing Yi: "How about you, Bingbing?"
Bing Yi hesitated for a while before answered Instructor Mei Lan''s question: "I think Instructor Lan did not mean for us to follow all of her methods in the exact same way. Instructor Lan only wants to tell us that we must not think to use force all the time, and we must use our minds to think of the most efficient way toplete our objective. Is that right?"
Instructor Mei Lan smiled again in satisfaction after she heard Bing Yi''s reply.
"That is correct! Using force to finish our task will certainly make it faster and easier. But you must consider the situation when you are carrying your task first! Location, the number of your enemies, their strength, their equipment, and so on... Many things could easily make you lose your life if you act rashly using force toplete your task." Instructor Mei Lan warned them with a stern tone.
"That is the difference between Executor ss students and Inspector ss students. Executor ss students have powerful battle-purpose divine abilities, so they are more suitable in using force toplete their task. While Executor ss students have flexible multi-purpose divine abilities, we are more suitable in using strategies toplete our task. Moreover, many things can be easily solved if you use this more..." Instructor Mei Lan said as she pointed at her forehead.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi nodded their head in understanding.
It could be said what Instructor Mei Lan did this time really opened their eyes.
If Instructor Mei Lan decided to use the forceful method like Hei Yinghao or Bing Yi, she would definitely have a really hard time defeating Patriarch Lin in the head-on battle.
She would need a lot of effort to fight with Patriarch Lin, and she would certainly exhaust a lot of Vitality Energy and even get hurt in that battle.
Not to mention the fierce battle between them would surely attract the attention of many people.
If the other two Core Formation Stage Expert from Oracle Mountain Sect decided to help Patriarch Lin, Instructor Mei Lan would definitely fall into greater danger!
At that time, no one will know if they could safely escape out from Lin Family''s residence even if Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi helped Instructor Mei Lan to face her opponents.
All in all, Instructor Mei Lan''s work was really perfect.
In fact, Instructor Mei Lan could silence all the guards and butlers in Patriarch Lin''s mansion forever to erase all the witnesses, and then no one would ever know what she had done except for Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
However, Instructor Mei Lan thought that step waspletely unnecessary because those thirty giant lizards would certainly do it for her in a few more hours.
Their current task was only to save the female lizard and bring her back to the male lizard.
Tang Li Xue had already told Instructor Mei Lan and the others every detail about the location of the underground dungeon where the female lizard was held.
Moreover, Instructor Mei Lan managed to get even more detailed information about it from Patriarch Lin''s mouth when she hypnotized him with her song and interrogated him.
However, Instructor Mei Lan tried to contact Tang Li Xue before doing that rescue task since she needs to tell Tang Li Xue to leave those giant lizards ande back here right now.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was still chatting happily with the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard].
So happily until Yaya and Little Loki felt really jealous. Both of them sulked at Tang Li Xue and stared unfriendly to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard].
Tang Li Xueughed at their childish behavior and then decided to introduce both of them to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]: "I almost forgot to introduce you to my family... Fake Dragon, this beautiful wind fairy is Yaya, and that cute ck kitten is Little Loki. Yaya, Little Loki, say hello to my best friend, Fake Dragon!"
Yaya immediately put her smug expression when Tang Li Xue called her as one of the family, while only called the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] as the best friend.
Even the calm and collected Little Loki felt really happy and satisfied when Tang Li Xue called it as her family.
"Oho? Hi, two cute little ones!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]ughed and greeted both Yaya and Little Loki.
He raised his w to pat at the heads of Yaya and Little Loki, just like what he had done to Tang Li Xue before, but both of them red at him, so he awkwardly decided to not do it.
Tang Li Xueughed at how they interact with each other amusedly.
Right at this moment, she suddenly got a call from Instructor Mei Lan through hermunication talisman.
Tang Li Xue immediately picked up the call from Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan did not talk much with Tang Li Xue through themunication talisman.
Instructor Mei Lan only told Tang Li Xue that she already got the other half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual from the patriarch of the Lin Family.
Instructor Mei Lan also told Tang Li Xue to let those giant lizards immediately attack the Lin Family''s residence, while she, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao would save the female lizard right now.
The biggest problem they will face right now was that there were so many rms and traps ced inside that underground dungeon.
Tang Li Xue was very lucky before because she did not touch anything at that time. If she identally triggered these rms and traps, she would certainly get siege by so many people from the Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect, then get caught by them.
Even if they somewhat managed to reach the ce where the female lizard was detained without triggering any rm or trap like Tang Li Xue, those rms and traps would certainly get triggered if Instructor Mei Lan and the others tried to bring the female lizard out from there.
Their only chance was to use the moment of chaos when those thirty giant lizards assaulted the Lin Family''s Residence for the second time to bring the female lizard out from that ce and escaped out from Lin Family''s Residence.
"I understand, Instructor Lan. Uh... Actually, the squad leader of these giant lizards is my old best friend. So, I can tell them to adjust the timing of their attack with you if you want it. How about it?" Tang Li Xue nodded, then she asked back to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan: "....."
Instructor Mei Lan fell speechless for a few moments.
"Hello, Instructor Lan? Are you still there?" Tang Li Xue asked again.
"Don''t tell me the squad leader of those giant lizards is the lizard you saved back in the Asura Demon Sect?!" Instructor Mei Lan asked in disbelief.
"Eh? Ah, that is right! I almost forget that you already know about it..." Tang Li Xue pped her forehead.
Actually, Tang Li Xue really forgot that Instructor Mei Lan already knew everything from how she escaped from Asura Demon Sect with Fake Dragon until how she managed to get the divine treasure from the volcano (Tang Li Xue did not get the divine treasure from the volcano, but Instructor Mei Lan thought so).
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan still felt shocked at Tang Li Xue''s luck.
The random lizard she had saved from the Asura Demon Sect before turned out to be a big shot of Lizard n!
The squad leader seemed insignificant to Human Race, but it has apletely different meaning in the Lizard n.
All the squad leaders in the Lizard n were actually the candidate for the future head of the Lizard n. They werepeting with each other to get the best result and got acknowledged by the elders and the current head of the Lizard n.
Instructor Mei Lan pondered carefully for a while before decided.
"All right then! Little Xue, You can follow that lizard squad leader for now. But you must let me know if you and those giant lizards already reached Lin Family''s residence, understand?" Instructor Mei Lan asked with a stern tone.
"I understand!" Tang Li Xue replied with a serious tone.
"Good! Immediately call me if you meet with some problems or mishaps." Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue before ended their call.
After that, Tang Li Xue told everything to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] and asked his permission to follow him for now.
"That is not a problem. But we must be really careful, so my subordinates would not feel suspicious to us." The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] murmured while pondered carefully.
All of his subordinates were certainly loyal to him, but the hierarchy in Lizard n was very strict like in the military.
For example, if the elders from the Lizard n ordered all of his subordinates to kill the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard], then they must definitely do it even if they were very loyal to him and did not want to do it at all or they would be charged as the treason and could even get executed.
Chapter 322: Adjust The Timing!
Chapter 322: Adjust The Timing!
In short, even though all of his subordinates were very loyal to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard], but they would still need to follow the order from all the higher-ups.
If the higher-ups of Lizard n ordered some of his subordinates to report everything that happened on this mission to them, then his subordinates would not hesitate to tell everything to the higher-ups, including how Tang Li Xue came to their squad and acted as if she was an old friend of their squad leader.
Tang Li Xue and the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] discussed for a while about how they should act in front of the giant lizard squad to not make that squad and the higher-ups felt suspicious toward both of them.
In the end, Tang Li Xue and the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] decided to act as childhood friends who had not met each other for a very long time.
It was actually Tang Li Xue''s idea from the novel she read in her previous life. It was a very cliche excuse, but 100% works in every novel story.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] was already thousands of years old anyway. Having a few hundreds of childhood friends from the other beast races were not strange at all, and it was normal for him to forget some of them.
After discussing it, the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] brought Tang Li Xue with him back toward the giant Lizard camp.
Tang Li Xue rode on the back of the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] with Yaya and Little Loki, but the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] suddenly said to Tang Li Xue: "Oh, right... Little Lass, you can wear back your fox mask and ck cloak right now. You do not need to worry. My subordinates will never dare to attack you with me escorting you here."
"Uh... All right..." Tang Li Xue felt confused at the Fake Dragon''s sudden request, but she decided not to ask and wore back her fox mask and ck cloak.
Actually, the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] also did not know why, but he just felt really ufortable and annoyed when all of his subordinates ogled Tang Li Xue''s beautiful appearance before. That was the reason why he told Tang Li Xue to cover herself again with her fox mask and ck cloak.
It did not take long for the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] to bring Tang Li Xue and her twopanions back to his squad camp.
"Eh? Our Squad Leader hase back!" One of the giant lizards on guarding duty eximed when it saw the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]nded on the ground near there.
"How about it? Is heing back alone or..." The other giant lizard immediately asked.
"Yes! I win the bet! Squad Leader really brings that stunning beauty back! Woohoo... Where are your vitality stones?! Gimme, gimme..." The ck giant lizard shouted as it jumped in delight.
"Tsk... Squad Leader, how can you betray our trust like this?! We thought you are gay and beauty means nothing to you at all!" The giant lizard team who lost the bet shouted in disappointment.
The expression of the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] immediately ckened like a bottom of a pot, while Tang Li Xue almostughed out loud when she heard their conversation.
"Do all of you really have no other job to do?! All right, then I will give all of you a big job to do! Get ready to sortie in ten minutes! We will attack that humans'' dwelling ce again!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] shouted with a cold tone to all of his subordinates.
"Understood!" All of the giant lizards shouted at the same time
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] wanted to brief them on the current situation and told all of his subordinates about Tang Li Xue and her Instructor''s n.
But the flirty giant lizard sneakily asked Tang Li Xue before the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] could do that: "Hi, little beauty! Why do you wear that ugly mask and gloomy ck cloak to cover your charming face now? You should have more confidence in yourself and do not need to be shy to show yourself..."
"Eh? Really? But sorry, I can''t. Your Squad Leader is the one who told me to cover myself..." Tang Li Xue innocently replied to reject the flirty giant lizard''s suggestion.
The other giant lizards who identally heard Tang Li Xue''s reply stared at the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] with the ''I know what you feel'' sign and snickered at him.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... I never know that our Squad Leader is such a possessive guy. He even feels jealous at us when we only..." One of the giant lizards whispered to its friend, but the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] immediately interrupted them with his shout before they could discuss it.
"It seems I give you all too much time! One minute! No one can talk anymore! Or I will punish all of you very harshly!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] roared in anger.
All of the giant lizards hastened their preparation, and they hastily awoke the other giant lizards who still fell asleep.
In only less than one minute, all of them were already lined up neatly in front of the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard].
It was truly a sight to behold when the thirty powerful giant lizards lined up so tidily like this.
It was not strange if the army of humans were the ones who did this, but these thirty giant lizards were very powerful [Rare] grade demonic beasts! Each of them has the strength to rival Core Formation Stage from the Human Race.
Even Tang Li Xue was a bit intimidated by thebination of their pressure, although she already knew that they were on the same side as her right now.
There was no trace of flirty or yfulness anymore in their expression right now. They looked cold and expressionless.
At this moment, these thirty giant lizards were one set of the mighty killing machines to obliterate the Lin Family.
"Destination: Lin Family''s Residence! Our objective:plete obliteration of Lin Family! Take off!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] roared hismand before unfurled his wide pair of bat-like wings and swiftly pped it.
The other giant lizards followed the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''s movement and all of them soared into the sky right at the same time.
While Tang Li Xue and her twopanions rode on the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard]''s back and contacted Instructor Mei Lan that she and the giant lizard squad were already on their way to the Lin Family''s Residence right now.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] also exined to all of his subordinates that Tang Li Xue was his old forgotten childhood friend, but her purpose here was not to meet with him.
The mission of Tang Li Xue''s team was to make sure that the Ancient Martial Art Manual from the Ancient Ruin got destroyed as soon as possible and saved the female lizard from the Lin Family''s ce.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] even told his subordinates that the reason for their first assault failure because Tang Li Xue''s team helped the human to defend their base.
But she did that because she needs to save the female lizard from the Lin Family''s ce first before she could let their squad obliterate the Lin Family''s ce.
"I... I am really sorry about it. But that is my mission, so I..." Tang Li Xue felt guilty, so she decided to apologize, but one of the giant lizards immediately interrupted her before she could finish her words.
"Shhh... Little Beauty, we understand how you feel really well. Do you really think we do not want to save our own kin from the clutches of those cruel humans? Sigh... But, we have our own set of rules in Lizard n, so we cannot do anything about it. We actually want to say thanks to you." One of the giant lizards sincerely said to Tang Li Xue.
" That is right! How can we hate you if what you are doing is only trying to save one of our kin?! Tsk, tsk, tsk... A stunning beauty with a kind and a pure heart... Squad Leader, I really have a crush on her, so if you dare to hurt the heart of this Little Beauty, I will surely take her from you!" The other giant lizard yfully said to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] whileughed.
"Shut up and listen! Our first job is to draw the attention of those humans in that ce to us for a few minutes, while the team from Fox Race will make their moves. After they managed toplete their objective, then we could finallyplete our own objective to obliterate that humans'' ce. Do you all understand?" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] ended his exnation with a stern tone.
"Understood!" The other lizards immediately replied simultaneously.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she heard the warm replies from all of the giant lizards.
But Tang Li Xue was still really worried about Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao.
''I hope Instructor Lan and the others will stay safe, and they will be able to save that pitiful female lizard from the underground dungeon.'' Tang Li Xue prayed in her heart.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan immediately brought Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao to the old-looking temple at the corner of Lin Family''s ce after she received the call from Tang Li Xue that she and the squad of the giant lizards were on their way toward here.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao wanted to ask about their n to save the female lizard, but they held themselves back when they remembered Instructor Mei Lan''s rules.
Instructor Mei Lan knew what they were thinking and said to them: "We do not need to move sneakily this time. We will break in forcefully from the front!"
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao widened their eyes in disbelief and dropped their jaws in shock.
''Isn''t this move too rough and violent? Will we really be alrightter if we are doing it this way in the middle of the enemy''s base?!'' Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao thought, as they really did not get what was in Instructor Mei Lan''s mind.
Chapter 323: Infiltrate By Force!
Chapter 323: Infiltrate By Force!
Instructor Mei Lan only smiled mysteriously when she saw the nk expressions on Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao faces.
Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to exin anything and said: "Let''s go! Remember! Do not kill the guards and do not use any of your divine abilities! You just need to knock them out!"
After saying that, Instructor Mei Lan immediately sprinted with her full speed toward the old-looking temple. Her slender figure turned into a ck sh, only leaving a streak of ck afterimages behind.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao also followed closely behind Instructor Mei Lan.
Many guards were patrolling around the old-looking temple. Some of them managed to notice Instructor Mei Lan and her two students in that instant when they rushed toward the old-looking temple, but before those guards could shout to inform their other fellow guards¡
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao swiftly swung the traditional umbres in their grasps toward those guards'' heads!
It only took them a few seconds to knock out those tens of patrolling guards. All of the patrolling guards fell onto the ground one by one like falling leaves.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao felt confused for a moment.
Should they hide these unconscious guards and wore their clothes to disguise like them, then slip stealthily into the old-looking temple?
But Instructor Mei Lan immediately instructed them: "Do not stop! Keep moving! We will enter the temple and save that female lizard right now!"
After pummeled all the patrolling guards around her until they have fainted, Instructor Mei Lan led her two students to keep pressing toward the old-looking temple.
Some of the guards who stood in front of the temple''s entrance realized what Instructor Mei Lan and her two students had done from afar.
They hastily whistled out loud to warn their fellow guards while unsheathed their weapons to face Instructor Mei Lan and her two students.
However, these guards were only the normal guards. Their cultivations were still far from those elite disciples of the Lin Family.
Moreover, even the cultivations of the elite disciples of the Lin Family were still far inferiorpared to the core disciples from the five virtuous sects and four evil sects like Ye Zhen, the core disciple of Immortal Swords Sect, or the crimson-dresseddy, the core disciple of Blood Devil Sect.
In short, the cultivations of these guards were at most only at the early-level or mid-level of the Qi Condensation Stage.
Each of Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao alone could easily ughter all of these guards in only a few moments if they disyed their divine abilities.
Even without using their divine abilities, these guards still could not evennd any hits on Instructor Mei Lan and the others. All these guards could do was only slowing them down a bit.
Despite the overwhelming number of guards that keep oning, Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao still managed to enter the old-looking temple.
They did not even bother to look for the mechanism to open the secret door to the underground dungeon.
They decided right away to use the Hidden Exploding Bullet from their umbres to open the way there.
BOOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao opened their umbre, and each of them shot one Hidden Exploding Bullet toward the ground at the center of an old-looking temple. It managed to create arge gaping hole on the ground.
Tang Li Xue already told Instructor Mei Lan and the others about the location of this underground dungeon before, so they could decide in an instant where they should shot their Hidden Exploding Bullet just now.
Instructor Mei Lan''s group did not hesitate and swiftly jumped into the hole on the ground.
"Watch out! There are many traps in this corridor! Bingbing! Use your [Freezing Field] to freeze everything around us!" Instructor Mei Lan warned them while ordered Bing Yi.
After she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s order, Bing Yi immediately opened her [Freezing Field] divine ability in full st. Everything around them was covered with thick white frost in an instant.
Even the traps on the floor, walls, and ceiling of this dark corridor were frozen and could not be triggered anymore even if they identally touched it.
This time Bing Yi was the one who led in front of them. Her [Freezing Field] had the ability to freeze all the traps around them after all, so it could make them pass through this dark and long corridor much easier.
Of course, Tang Li Xue with her [Ethereal Form] had it easier than them since she could not touch or trigger any trap in her [Ethereal Form]. She easily walked past this dark long corridor filled with deathly traps without even realizing any it before.
After going through that dark long corridor, Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao arrived at a very long spiral staircase that heading straight to the deep underground.
''Bingbing, stop! There is another kind of traps ced in this spiral staircase! Bingbing, Silly Fox, look carefully at where I stepped and follow me closely from behind!" Instructor Mei Lan ordered them once more.
From the information she got from Patriarch Lin after she hypnotized him, every rung of this long spiral staircase was divided into three sections.
Every time they stepped on the wrong section, they would trigger a dangerous trap. So, they must step onto the correct section between these three sections in every rung.
Instructor Mei Lan led in front of Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao again while remembered the sequence of the correct section she got from the hypnotized Patriarch Lin before: ''Right, right, left, middle, left, middle, right, left¡''
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao only needed to follow Instructor Mei Lan''s steps from behind.
This long spiral staircase slowed them down a lot. It took them more or less ten minutes to climb down this spiral staircase when it would only take them a few seconds if not for these annoying traps.
Once again, Tang Li Xue in her [Ethereal Form], did not even know about this kind of trap before, and she only casually walked past it without facing any difficulties.
When Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao reached the most bottom part of the underground way, they were assaulted by the pungent smell of blood and the disgusting smell of rotten corpses.
Instructor Mei Lan and Hei Yinghao only frowned deeply, but they did not really bother by it.
While Bing Yi puked out because of the unbearable disgusting stink.
As foxes, sniffed the scent of pungent blood did not bother them at all, including Bing Yi.
The one that made them disgusted and made Bing Yi puked was the pungent smell of rotten corpses.
"Let''s go and finish this quickly, so we can go out of here as soon as we can!" Instructor Mei Lan said to them.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi nodded to Instructor Mei Lan and followed behind her again, then they proceed forward to the dark dungeon where the Lin Family imprisoned all of their enemies.
There were so many prisons here separated by thick walls and steel doors.
Many of the people imprisoned inside them had died and turned into dried corpses, then the cockroaches and rats inside here gnawed on those dried corpses.
The prisoners that still alive by eating those cockroaches and rats immediately reacted when they saw Instructor Mei Lan and the others passed in front of their prisons.
Some of them who still have some sanity left in them begged for Instructor Mei Lan''s group to release them, while those who have already consumed by their insanityughed and harassed Instructor Mei Lan''s group with dirty words.
Instructor Mei Lan, Hei Yinghao, and Bing Yi did not have any intention to interact or release these people, so they ignored these prisoners and walked past their prisons to head toward the deepest part of this underground dungeon.
There was a huge prison in the deepest part of the underground dungeon.
Instructor Mei Lan took out a key from her space pouch and used it to open this huge prison.
Instructor Mei Lan got this key from Patriarch Lin''s spatial ring, and she managed to find out the purpose of this key after she interrogated Patriarch Lin in the hypnotized state.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had told them, there was the blood pool at the center of this huge prison, and the female lizard was hanged above that blood pool.
There were a lot of chains embed deep into the female lizard''s flesh to keep her giant body hanged above the blood pool like that.
Tang Li Xue already told the condition of the female lizard to Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao in detail before.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao also already prepared themselves after they heard Tang Li Xue''s story, but hearing the story and seeing it with their own eyes were twopletely different things!
They could even barely recognize the female lizard right now since she looked like a big lump of meat.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao gnashed their teeth and even their eyes turned bloodshot in extreme anger. Both of them immediately rushed forward to save the poor female lizard.
Instructor Mei Lan was a lot calmer than her two students since she already saw these scenes many times before, although she still felt anger burning in her heart, but she did not forget to warn her students: "Wait!"
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao halted their step and stared at Instructor Mei Lan in confusion as if they were asking Instructor Mei Lan why she stopped them from saving that poor female lizard.
Instructor Mei Lan took out [Talisman of Numbness +3] and [Talisman of Regeneration +3] she got from Tang Li Xue and threw it to the poor female lizard.
Chapter 324: Countless Deadly Traps!
Chapter 324: Countless Deadly Traps!
The [Talisman of Numbness +3] alleviated the female lizard''s pain, while [Talisman of Regeneration +3] started to heal the female lizard''s wound.
Tang Li Xue already used these two talismans before, but it was clearly far from enough topletely cure all of the female lizard''s wounds.
The heavily wounded female lizard would at least need another three or four [Talisman of Regeneration +3] topletely stop its profuse bleeding and recover its lost limbs.
The female lizard''s wounds were far too heavy after all. It was not simply stabbing or shing wounds, so it would take more time for [Talisman of Regeneration +3] to heal all of its wounds.
The recovery effect of [Talisman of Regeneration +3] was also gradual over time, and it would probably take one or two hours for the female lizard to recoverpletely.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao clearly did not have that much time to wait for it right now.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao with a stern expression and said: "Listen up! There are so many dangerous traps installed in this huge prison, and it would be activated at once when we try to set that lizard free.
Not only that, but the emergency rm would also automatically ringing to call all the experts from the Lin Family."
"Therefore, we will only have one chance to do this. Bingbing, Silly Fox, you two can go out from this ce first. Leave this task to free this lizard to me. I will catch up to you two very soon." Instructor Mei Lan said to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao exchanged nces for a moment in confusion, and then both of them stared at Instructor Mei Lan with the eyes full of worry.
Instructor Mei Lanughed leisurely when she saw Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao''s worried expressions, then said to them: "You two do not need to worry. I already did many missions that much more dangerous than this. How could a mere B-Grade mission like this take me down?!"
"Go! I will catch up to you two very soon!" Instructor Mei Lan ordered Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao while pushed their shoulders.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao hesitated for a while before gritted their teeth and sprinted out from the huge prison.
Both of them felt really useless and powerless right now. They felt that they were nothing more but the burdens to Instructor Mei Lan.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan brought them with her into this underground dungeon was not because she needs their help but for them to gain more experience.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled gently as she saw the backs of Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao getting farther and farther from behind.
She felt really d that her students were so attached to her. But she also felt really worried since most of her students died before because of their worry for her like them.
Instructor Mei Lan''s divine abilities were really powerful and extremely destructive, but it would attack any target around her indiscriminately.
This was also the reason why she needed to drive Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao out of here first.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at the hanged female lizard with a solemn expression and murmured: "All right, this is quite troublesome, but Lizard n is well-known for their toughness. I hope this lizard can hold out for a second. "
Instructor Mei Lan took a deep breath before jumped toward the hanged female lizard.
Her palm was infused to the brim with thepressed vibration from her [Demonic Tune] divine ability. The intense vibration on her palm even made the space around it continue to tremble slightly.
[Vibration de]!
Instructor Mei Lan waved her palm around and chopped at the chains embedded deep into the female lizard''s flesh.
The sharpness of Instructor Mei Lan''s [Vibration de] had reached such an unimaginable level that it could easily sever all of the chains without any resistance like cutting a piece of paper.
However, the danger that Instructor Mei Lan would face only begin now!
CLAAAANGG~!!! CLAAAANGG~!!! CLAAAANGG~!!!
The deafening sound of the bell echoed through the entire Lin Family''s residence.
The people of the Lin Family immediately knew the meaning of this bell, and all of them were hastily heading to the old-looking temple as soon as possible.
The people of the Oracle Mountain Sect still felt confused when they heard this deafening sound of the bell. Some of them even felt panicked because they thought the giant lizards started to attack them again.
However, the people of the Oracle Mountain Sect quickly calmed down after the people from the Lin Family exined it to them.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan already started to face the deadly traps triggered when she set free the female lizard from those chains.
Countless poisonous arrows flew mercilessly toward her from all directions at once!
"Child''s y." Instructor Mei Lan calmly smiled and leisurely snapped her fingers.
CLAAAACK~!!!
Instructor Mei Lan did not use her [Heavenly Sound] divine ability to amplify the snapping sound since she was afraid of identally killing the wounded female lizard, so she decided to only use the vibration effect from her [Demonic Tune] divine ability to repel all the iing poisonous arrows.
BAAAAANGGG~!!!
As if bumping onto an invisible barrier, all the flying poisonous arrows were bouncing off when Instructor Mei Lan snapped her fingers.
Instructor Mei Lan lithely stepped onto one of the falling poisonous arrows on mid-air and jumped closer toward the falling female lizard since Instructor Mei Lan already cut all the chains which bound its giant body.
However, the other lethal traps instantly activated before Instructor Mei Lan have any time to grab the falling female lizard.
PPOOOFFF~!!! PPOOOFFF~!!! PPOOOFFF~!!! PPOOOFFF~!!!
Four wides shot out from four different directions toward Instructor Mei Lan at once!
"Electrics? Such a boring old fashioned trap." Instructor Mei Lan sneered mockingly as she condensed four invisible and thin vibration swords with her [Demonic Tune] divine ability in an instant.
The four invisible vibration swords shed so swiftly and sliced the four electrics so easily into many tiny pieces, while Instructor Mei Lan nimbly caught the falling female lizard and threw it into her mid-rank space pouch.
But there were still so many deadly traps activated at once while Instructor Mei Lan still jumped on mid-air and not yetnded on the ground!
WWEEEEEEEENGG~!!!
This time, the killing array engraved on the huge prison''s ceiling activated.
The huge pressure pressed onto Instructor Mei Lan''s body like a huge hammer as if it was trying to crush her body with immense weight.
The killing array carved on the ground also activated at the same time and created countless spears of light!
There was no ce to hide from these.
There was no way to dodge these.
However, Instructor Mei Lan did not panic at all. She still looked calm andposed, no different from how she was usually.
"The sequence of these traps are quite good, I can replicate these traps to train Little Xue and the otherster. It would be bad if they meet with traps like this in Fox Hunting Festival after all." Instructor Mei Lan calmly murmured.
Just when the countless spears of light almost pierced her slender body, Instructor Mei Lan pped her hands while activated both of her [Demonic Tune] and [Heavenly Sound] at once.
CLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAPPP~~!!!
Both of her divine abilities enhanced each other pushed its power to another level!
The [Heavenly Sound] did not only amplify the volume of the sound but also enhanced the extreme vibration of [Demonic Tune] by many times!
When the extreme vibration from Instructor Mei Lan''s deafening pping sound made the wall around her, the floor below, and even the ceiling shuddered violently.
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
The many deep cracks started to spread around the huge underground dungeon like the interconnected spider webs.
The killing arrays carved on the ceiling and the ground were forcefully terminated because of these deep cracks, but it also made the entire underground dungeon shook violently as if it could copse anytime.
"Oops¡ This looks really bad! Sigh¡ It seems I overdo it again this time. I better get out of here now!" Instructor Mei Lan said to herself like a mischievous child after doing a prank. It was clear from her words that this was not the first time she did this kind of thing.
When Instructor Mei Lan''s feetnded back on the ground, it was only a few seconds had passed, but the huge prison where she was currently located was almost falling apart since it was filled with countless deep cracks everywhere.
Instructor Mei Lan immediately dashed out from the huge prison, but the speed of this underground dungeon copsing was too fast.
Huge debris started to fall one by one from above!
Even some thick stone walls began to crumble!
The prisoners in their prisons screamed and shouted in panic, asking for help, but Instructor Mei Lan did not pay any heed to them.
"Sigh¡ I hope both Bingbing and Silly Fox are already go out from here." Instructor Mei Lan sighed in worry as several huge rubbles almost fell down and squashed her.
[Demonic Tune] variation move: [Grinding Strike]!
Instructor Mei Lan struck out her fist toward the several huge rubbles above her and¡
PPPOOOOOOOOOFFF~!!!
Those several huge rubbles made from solid stones turned into dust before Instructor Mei Lan''s fist even touched it!
"Cough¡ Cough¡ I hate dust. I really want to take a clean bath so badly now." Instructor Mei Lan pursed her lips and murmured in displeasure.
Chapter 325: Surrounded From All Sides!
Chapter 325: Surrounded From All Sides!
"All right, this is too troublesome! Why do I need to get out from the entrance when I can make my own way out from here?!" Instructor Mei Lan said as she started to crouch.
Instructor Mei Lan put most of her strength on her feet and jumped straight upwards!
Her slender body flew upwards with an amazing speed just like a cannon shellunched from below.
Just when Instructor Mei Lan''s face almost crashed onto the stone ceiling filled with deep cracks, she struck out her fist forward toward the stone ceiling!
[Demonic Tune] variation move: [Grinding Strike]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
When Instructor Mei Lan''s slender fist almost touched the stone ceiling, the intense air vibration around her fist already ground the stone ceiling into dust.
Instructor Mei Lan did not just stop until there.
Her slender body kept shooting upwards while the intense air vibration around her fist burrowed a hole in the stone ceiling for her to go through.
The underground dungeon was located hundreds of meters under the ground, but Instructor Mei Lan nned to burrow a hole with her [Grinding Strike] until she went back out.
Of course, she could not jump that high. Instructor Mei Lan immediately lost her momentum and almost fall back down, but she swiftly took out a flying disc from her space pouch and used it as her foothold.
Instructor Mei Lan controlled the flying disc under her feet and flew upwards again while kept using her [Grinding Strike] to continue burrowing a hole upwards.
It did not take long for her to see a glimpse of light in front of her.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Instructor Mei Lan jumped out from the hole she made as she reached the surface.
She took a deep breath in relief when she finally saw the blue sky above her again.
"Eh? I wonder where are Bingbing and Silly Fox right now? I hope they manage to go out by now. I will be a huge pain if I must go back to save them." Instructor Mei Lan murmured as she put her finger on her chin.
[Heavenly Sound] detection move: [Sonar]!
Instructor Mei Lan immediately detected the location of Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao with her [Sonar].
Both of them were still inside the underground dungeon, and they were currently still climbing the long spiral staircase.
It took them several minutes for them to descend from that long spiral staircase before, but it was because Instructor Mei Lan intentionally slowed down her step just so Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao could easily follow her from behind.
If Instructor Mei Lan was alone, she could go through this long spiral staircase easily in a few seconds.
Right now, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao still faced a lot of difficulties because of the dangerous traps ced on this long spiral staircase, while the underground dungeon already started to copse behind them!
"Ice Girl, we are running out of time! Can you lead the way faster?!" Hei Yinghaoined to Bing Yi with an irritated tone.
"Shut up! Why don''t you just be the one who leads the way if you want to do it faster than me?!" Bing Yi angrily shouted at Hei Yinghao.
Hei Yinghao could not remember the correct sequence section in every rung like Bing Yi. That was the reason why Bing Yi was the one who led the way right now.
But no matter how good Bing Yi''s ability to remember, she only saw Instructor Mei Lan going through this long spiral staircase once. Moreover, she needs to recall the section sequence in reverse because they were not descending the staircase like before, but they were currently ascending the staircase right now.
Bing Yi''s mind already pushed to the limit right now, but she still needs more time.
Meanwhile, the earthquake got more and more violent. The speed of the underground dungeon copsing also became faster and faster.
The deep cracks were already spreading everywhere.
Huge debris kept falling from the copsed ceiling.
Many stone walls already began to crumble apart.
All of those got closer and closer to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao''s location.
Just when the deep cracks started to spread on the spiral staircase below their feet,?Hei Yinghao finally decided to make his move.
Hei Yinghao held Bing Yi''s smooth hand and pulled her closer toward him.
"What are you¡" Bing Yi shouted angrily at Hei Yinghao, but before she could finish her words, Hei Yinghao already carried Bing Yi away in the princess carry style.
"We are running out of time! Hold on tight and grit your teeth! I will not take any responsibility if you bite your own tongue!" Hei Yinghao warned Bing Yi with a stern tone.
[Blood Burst] active!
[Blood Ignition] ¨C Twelve Amplification active!
Hei Yinghao activated both of his [Blood Burst] and [Blood Ignition] at his utmost limit in that instant!
Hei Yinghao''s figure turned into a ck sh as he ascending the spiral staircase with lightning speed!
He did not bother to care anymore about the dangerous traps ced on the spiral staircase.
Every time Hei Yinghao stepped onto the next rung the dangerous traps were triggered.
Hundreds of poisonous arrows shot out from the wall, me wall, sharp spikes appeared on the ground, trap holes,ndmines made from exploding talismans, and many other types of traps more...
However, Hei Yinghao was moving way too fast, so when those dangerous traps triggered, he already went more than ten steps away from it.
"GGGUUUUUUOOOOAAAAAHHHH~!!!" Hei Yinghao shouted out loud as he pushed himself to past his limit.
His main problem was not those dangerous traps anymore, but the copsing underground dungeon!
No matter how fast he sprinted, he could no longer keep up with the speed of the underground dungeon copsing!
The spiral staircase, the stone wall, and even the ceiling already started to fall apart!
Hei Yinghao threw Bing Yi onto his left shoulder and carried her like a sack now. He used his left hand to hold Bing Yi''s buttock, while started to umte the ck destructive energy on his right palm.
[Destruction Force]!
"Bast*rd! Pervert! Where do you think you are touching me?!" Bing Yi gritted her teeth in anger and embarrassment as she cursed Hei Yinghao out loud.
Hei Yinghao did not have any time to think about Bing Yi''s shout, he kept umting the ck destructive energy with his [Destruction Force] divine ability while kept sprinting at his full speed.
RUUUMMBLEE~!!! RUUUMMBLEE~!!! RUUUMMBLEE~!!!
The earthquake got much more intense as everything around them crumbled apart!
Hei Yinghao swiftly jumped when he reached the top of the long spiral staircase!
Right when he managed to go through it, the long spiral staircase finally could not hold on anymore and fell apart, shattered into pieces, then fell onto the bottom of the underground dungeon.
Hei Yinghao did not stop and kept on running. There was still the long dark corridor filled with dangerous traps in front of him.
But it seems their time was up as the ceiling above them had finally copsed!
There was nowhere for them to run anymore!
Everything around them already copsed at the same time!
If they did not do something right now, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao would certainly be buried alive in here!
At this critical moment, Hei Yinghao chose to inject his vitality energy into his ck cloak.
There was a pair of ck wings appeared on his back, and he hastily used it to fly upwards in that instant.
Just when the huge rubbles from the copsed ceiling almost squashed him and Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao waved his right palm and unleashed the [Destruction Force] umted on his palm.
The ck destructive lightning shed on the top of his palm as Hei Yinghao converted the umted ck [Destruction Force] into even more violent and powerful [Lightning of Destruction]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The extremely powerful and destructive ck lightning destroyed everything on its path.
The huge rubbles and the cracked ceiling had turned into dust the moment it touched the destructive ck lightning.
Unfortunately, the strength of Hei Yinghao''s [Lightning of Destruction] lied in its lethality, unlike Instructor Mei Lan''s [Grinding Strike] which had a high prating effect.
The good news was Hei Yinghao already so close to the surface when he already climbed up the long spiral staircase, so his [Lightning of Destruction] still had enough power to bring him and Bing Yi to break onto the surface.
BBBAAAAAANG~!!!
Hei Yinghao took a deep breath when he finally broke out to the surface and saw the blue night sky above him!
But the extreme exhaustion started to assault his body when he rxed for a bit.
Hei Yinghao''s consciousness began to fade away, and he fell into a deep slumber.
"Wa¡ Idiotic Silly Fox! Why do you sleep now?! We still need to fly right now!" Bing Yi already separated from Hie Yinghao, and she activated her ck cloak too and flew above the copsing ground, but Hei Yinghao plunged down instead right now.
Bing Yi gritted her teeth and reluctantly caught the falling Hei Yinghao before he dived back down onto the copsing ground.
Since the underground dungeon already copsed, the ground around here had lost its support and already started to cave in, then sank deeper down.
The old-looking temple near them had already long fell apart because of an intense earthquake.
Even the guards there already dispersed, and they might already notify their higher-ups about this.
Bing Yi held the unconscious Hei Yinghao by his cor while kept staring at the copsed ground with a worried expression.
"I hope Instructor Lan already went out from there¡" Bing Yi murmured, but before she could finish her words¡
"Oh, sure! I already went out from there long ago! How can you two be so slow?!" Instructor Mei Lanined from behind Bing Yi.
Bing Yi turned around in surprise to see Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan already sat leisurely on the top of her flying disc while staring at Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao with a gentle smile on her face and said: "It seems I need to increase your training a lot moreter. Ah, well¡ this is not the right time for us to discuss this."
Instructor Mei Lan ended her speech as she nced around.
There were 70-100 people or maybe more already surrounded them from all directions with angry expressions.
All of them stood on their flying swords, while Instructor Mei Lan sat on her flying disc. Bing Yi still carried the unconscious Hei Yinghao and hovering with the pair of wings from her ck cloak.
Chapter 326: Reinforcements From the Sky!
Chapter 326: Reinforcements From the Sky!
"Envoys of Immortal Sword Sect, what is the meaning of this?! Do you team up with those ugly lizards to ruin our ce?!" One of the elders from the Lin Family shouted in anger.
"Uhh¡ Will you believe it if we are saying that we are only passing by here?" Instructor Mei Lan sneered and replied with a leisure tone.
Bing Yi got even more nervous by Instructor Mei Lan''s provocative reply.
They were still getting surrounded by these many people after all. It would be bad for them if these people attacked them at once.
"Stop joking around! Even if you all are really the Envoys of Immortal Sword Sect, we will still hold you ountable for this!" The other elder from the Lin Family screamed angrily at them.
Meanwhile, the two Core Formation Stage experts from Oracle Mountain Sect only watched from the side.
The people of Oracle Mountain Sect did not dare to make any rash move since they already checked the authenticity of Instructor Mei Lan''s group identities as the Envoys of Immortal Sword Sect.
Elder Yang even gave them a stern warning to not hurt his envoys or he will make them regret it.
It was true that Oracle Mountain Sect really wanted to get the reward promised by the Lin Family, but they would never antagonize Immortal Sword Sect because of it.
Waged war with the most prominent Virtuous Sect for a mere Lin Family was simply far from worth it. Thus the Oracle Mountain Sect would never do something stupid like that.
Just when Instructor Mei Lan wanted to say something to buy some more time, themunication talisman hid in her clothes was starting to lit.
"Whatever, we will take all of you under our custody first and ask for Immortal Sword Sect for further exnationter." The oldest elder from the Lin Family decided.
Instructor Mei Lan took out hermunication talisman and picked up the call from Tang Li Xue.
"You arete! I am already waiting for you since one or two minutes ago!" Instructor Mei Lan said before Tang Li Xue could ask anything.
"Oh, oh, all right! Then, we will begin now! Instructor Lan, brace for the impact!" Tang Li Xue''s sweet immature voice resounded from Instructor Mei Lan''smunication talisman.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
An earthshattering explosion urred as the protective barrier that covered the entire Lin Family''s residence had shattered to pieces.
Thirty giant lizards descended in neat formation toward where the people from Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect had congregated right now.
"Im¡ Impossible! This is impossible! How could we do not know if these lizardse to us?! Howe our people did not notify us about this?!" The oldest elder of the Lin Family shouted in fear and horror as his body shuddered violently.
The people of Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect were immediately thrown into chaos right now, and they started to run around in panic.
"Muahahaha¡ Sister-inw, your [Talismans of Stealthy] are so amazing! These stupid humans did not even realize that we already fly above their nose before!" The giant green lizards happily praised Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes in displeasure and said: "Stop calling me Sister-inw! I am not your Sister-inw!"
She almost spent all of her newly invented [Talismans of Stealthy +2] to make these thirty giant lizards invisible by the people in the Lin Family''s residence, and it made her wallet bleeding quite badly.
''Of course, my talismans are amazing! I wonder how many credits I can get if I sold those thirty [Talismans of Stealthy +2]?! Sigh¡ Oh well, at least everything went well right now!'' Tang Li Xue positively thought.
Thirty giant lizards were so tough and powerful like a group of flying tanks. Adding Tang Li Xue''s [Talismans of Stealthy +2] to make them invisible into ount, these giant lizards were destruction bringer weapons right now.
Although their stealth mode was broken when they attacked the protective barrier, but they only need to fight head-on with the people from Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect right now.
Thirty [Rare] grade demonic beasts were on par with thirty Core Formation Experts.
But each of these [Rare] grade giant lizards were certainly much more powerful than ordinary [Rare] grade demonic beasts like Bing Yi, Mogui, and the others.
Moreover, they were not only powerful, but also well-trained, orderly, and they have tough bodies capable of taking many heavy strikes.
Even if the Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect had sixty or ever ny Core Formation Experts, they probably would never be able to hold an advantage in fighting against these thirty [Rare] grade giant lizards in close-quarterbat battle like this.
What was happening right now was only a one-sided ughter.
Thirty giant lizards dived down in V formation.
The people of Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect did not have any other choice than threw some random ranged attacks in the hope to bring a few of those thirty giant lizards down.
Unfortunately, all of their efforts were futile.
The scale of the giant lizards was too tough and thick.
Their ranged attacks only made the giant lizards feel a bit itch.
Even the ranged attacks from two Core Formation Experts of Oracle Mountain Sect could only slow down the speed of several giant lizards.
When the range between the giant lizards and the people of Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect were only less than 200 meters away, the [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] finally shouted his order: "Attack!"
[Nirvana me]!
[Acid st]!
[Gravity Bomb]!
[Death Breath]!
¡..
Thirty giant lizards threw their most powerful attacks at once toward the crowds of humans without any mercy!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The barrage of ear-splitting explosions happened at once wiping out so many people in one go!
Fortunately, Instructor Mei Lan already brought Bing Yi and the unconscious Hei Yinghao a bit far away from the center of those explosions or they would probably already engulfed by the shockwave from those explosions.
"Sister-inw... Your teacher and friends are really good to us! They even generously gathered all of these people here just so we can wipe them out at once!" The ck lizard said to Tang Li Xue with a tone filled with amazement.
Tang Li Xue: "¡.."
"Okay, just call me whatever you like! Sigh¡ Fake Dragon, I need to go to meet with my teacher and friend right now." Tang Li Xue told the [Red Eyes Winged Lizard].
"All right, you can go now! We will cover you."?The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] replied.
Tang Li Xue nodded at the [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] and jumped down from his back while bringing Yaya and Little Loki with her.
When her feet touched the ground, Tang Li Xue''s slender figure immediately turned into white sh as she used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dash toward Instructor Mei Lan and the others.
"Instructor Lan! What are we going to do right now? Help the giant lizard squad to wipe Lin Family away?" Tang Li Xue innocently asked after she arrived beside Instructor Mei Lan.
"Uwaaah¡ Little Xue! I really miss you! Are you okay? Do you get hurt? Did those ugly lizards bully you?" Bing Yi said with a worried tone as she threw the unconscious Hei Yinghao away and hugged Tang Li Xue tightly.
"Ahaha¡ That''s tickles! No, they are really nice to me." Tang Li Xue giggled while answered Bing Yi''s question.
Little Loki still actedzily as always on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder, but Yaya felt really annoyed when Bing Yi hugged Tang Li Xue, so she stared angrily at Bing Yi from the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
"Nope, we need to go now. We will leave this ce in the hands of this Lizard Squad." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue.
"Eh? Is that really all right? I mean to let the lizards handle it?" Tang Li Xue skeptically asked.
Instructor Mei Lan pointed to the battlefield with her chin and asked back to Tang Li Xue: "Do you really think they will need our help to get rid of those people?"
Tang Li Xue turned around and nced at the battle between the lizards and humans, then her mouth twitched a bit at the scene in front of her eyes.
Most people had already been wiped out by the barrage of powerful attacks before. The rest of the people were wounded or even crippled without any hope of counterattacking.
In fact, the giant lizards were only ying around by chasing the wounded people and eating anyone who fell from exhaustion.
"Let''s go! We still have two other tasks to do. First, we need to return this female lizard to its spouse. Second, we need to wipe out the rest of the Lin Family who hid themselves with the copies of half Ancient Martial Art Manual." Instructor Mei Lan said as she led Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi out from the Lin Family''s residence.
Bing Yi pulled the unconscious Hei Yinghao and followed Instructor Mei Lan from behind.
While Tang Li Xue nced at the [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] who still currently fighting with the people of the Lin Family, she was a bit reluctant to leave after meeting with her old friend.
The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] realized Tang Li Xue''s gaze and whispered to her with his [Telepathy] ability: "Little Lass, you have grown up a lot. I am really d that you already have a very dependable teacher and trustablepanions right now. Go! We will surely meet again soon!"
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth to chase away her reluctance and resolutely nodded to the [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] before running to follow Instructor Mei Lan.
The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] sighed with mixed feeling as he watched Tang Li Xue''s back get farther and farther away from him.
The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] started to ponder deeply for the reason why his memories about this Little Lass got erased.
He began to analyze it carefully from his own point of view.
''The ability to erase any part of memories so urately without any side effect... Only my [Mind Maniption] divine ability that can do it. But why? Why do I need to go that far?'' The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] fell in deep thought.
Chapter 327: The Red Eyes Winged Lizards Hypothesis!
Chapter 327: The Red Eyes Winged Lizard''s Hypothesis!
The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard]''s squad was already more than enough to hunt the scattered people of the Lin Family.
''Calm down¡ The one who erased my memories is myself. So I would definitely not do something detrimental to myself¡'' The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] analyzed everything carefully from his own point of view included the choice that himself would make in some certain condition.
The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] was not as bright and smart as Instructor Mei Lan, but he lived longer than her and definitely had much more life experience which made him wiser than he looks.
''Unless¡ I do it for that Little Lass! But what is the reason?''
''To protect that Little Lass from something? From What?''
''The clue I get from talking with that Little Lass is that my past self still remembers her before I separated myself from her. So the time when I erase my memories is between after my separation with Little Lass and before I reached Lizard n.'' The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] squinted his crimson-red eyes after he deduced this far.
''So my past self erased the memories about that Little Lass to protect her from Lizard n?! But¡ Why?''
''Unless that Little Lass had something that Lizard n wants so badly in her possession! Something that Lizard n really wants¡ Oh, My God¡ Divine Treasure from that volcano!'' The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] shuddered violently when he concluded.
It took a few minutes for the [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] to calm down himself and continued his deduction: ''Wait a minute¡ ording to my personality, I would never erase the memories that precious with that Little Lass so carelessly. I will probably put a tight seal on that memories and put the timer on it so the seal would automatically be undone in about¡ half a year or a year.''
The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] narrowed his eyes as murderous intent shed in the deepest part of his blood-red eyes: ''The reason for the memories got erased now must be some higher-ups from Lizard n tried to read my mind which triggered the seal and automatically erased it before the higher-ups can read it.''
''Sigh¡ It seems even the higher-ups from my own n cannot be fully trusted. I must move carefully from now on.'' The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] warned himself as he stared at his own lizard squad coldly.
The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] almost made a mistake when he tried to trust the higher-ups of the Lizard n before, so he decided to not make any more mistakes.
It means he could not trust his own lizard squad too!
Of course, the [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] was not crazy enough, so he did not n to intimidate, threaten, or kill his own squad.
He only nned to erase the memories about Tang Li Xue from everyone''s mind in his own lizard squad.
With his [Mind Maniption], the [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] could even easily create fake memoriester to rece it, something like the cooperation with Fox Race still happening but without Tang Li Xue''s assistance.
''Sigh¡ Little Lass, I will do everything I can do to cover for you, but ''treasuring a jade ring bes a crime''. Someone would bound to know about it someday, the only way to protect that divine treasure and yourself are for you to be strong enough to protect it! I can only hope you can be that strong before anyone knows about it.'' The [Red Eyes Winged Lizard] thought as he stared at the ce where Tang Li Xue headed before.
¡..
¡
.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan and all of her students already went out from Lin Family''s residence.
Instructor Mei Lan sprinted through the valley with Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi followed closely behind her.
Bing Yi was still piggybacking the unconscious Hei Yinghao behind his back. Although, she really hated doing it, but she did not have any other choice since Instructor Mei Lan already ordered her to do so.
While Tang Li Xue nced at Instructor Mei Lan several times already from behind, she opened her mouth a few times, looking as if she wanted to ask something from Instructor Mei Lan but still hesitating in doing it.
Instructor Mei Lan already realized it, but she only chuckled softly and pretend to not know it.
Instructor Mei Lan knew what Tang Li Xue wanted to ask from her, but their mission had toe first. She nned toplete their mission first before handing the Ancient Martial Art Manual in her possession to Tang Li Xue.
It did not take long for Instructor Mei Lan and her students to reach the edge of the cliff where they promised to meet with the male lizard before.
Actually, the male lizard had always waited for them since a few days ago here.
The male lizard felt delighted when he saw Instructor Mei Lan and her students, but he did not drop his guard yet because Instructor Mei Lan and her students still covered themselves with ck cloaks and hoods.
The male lizard already knew how cunning the humans were, so he was afraid that Instructor Mei Lan and her students were the humans in disguise.
"It''s me, the Inspector of Fox Race. Fortunately, we manage to save your spouse from Lin Family''s prison with her life intact."?Instructor Mei Lan said while uncovered her hood to show her face and pair of fox ears.
The male lizard''s eyes became teary when he heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words, and he immediately said: "Thank you! Thank you very much! I¡ I owe you all my life! I¡"
Instructor Mei Lan raised her palm to stop the male lizard from bbering and said: "Do not be too happy just yet. Your spouse is still alive, but her condition is¡ quite bad. You should prepare yourself before I take her out."
The male lizard staggered a bit.
He gritted his fangs in anger and sadness.
RRROOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRR~!!!
The male lizard roared out loud to release outrage.
It took him a few minutes before he could calm himself down.
Instructor Mei Lan patiently waited for the male lizard to calm down, while Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi already raised their vignce to the maximum to defend themselves if the male lizard suddenly went berserk and attacking them.
"I¡ I am sorry. I almost lost myself. I am ready! You can bring my beloved one out. I will ept her whatever she is right now." The male lizard took a deep breath and said apologetically to Instructor Mei Lan.
"All right." Instructor Mei Lan replied as she took the female lizard from her space pouch and put her in front of the male lizard.
Although Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue already gave the female lizard two [Talisman of Regeneration +3], and it made the female lizard recovered a lot until it did not looks like a big lump of meat anymore like before.
But the female lizard still looked so bloody and skinless without any limbs and spine since Lin Family already forcefully took them.
The female lizard also did not have any ws, fangs, scales, horns, wings, and eyes anymore.
Even the tough-looking male lizard immediately bawled out loud when he saw the pitiful condition of his beloved wife.
Sadness, pity, relief, delight, and anger were mixed into one.
"Her skins, limbs, and eyes can still be recovered with our talisman." Instructor Mei Lanforted the male lizard while nced at Tang Li Xue to ask for more [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from her.
Tang Li Xue''s expression darkened a lot when Instructor Mei Lan asked for more of her talismans.
''I already gave thirty [Talisman of Stealthy +2] to those giant lizards, and now I must give my [Talisman of Regeneration] too?! How many credits I can get if I sell that many talismans?! Two hundred thousand? Three hundred thousand? Or maybe even more?'' Tang Li Xue thought as she really wanted to cry so badly right now.
She did not have that many [Talisman of Regeneration +3] so Tang Li Xue decided to take out all of her [Talisman of Regeneration +2]?and reluctantly handed it to Instructor Mei Lan.
There were at least twenty or thirty [Talisman of Regeneration +2]?in that stack.
Instructor Mei Lan gave all of those [Talisman of Regeneration +2] to the male lizard and said: "This is [Talisman of Regeneration]. You can use one every half hour to recover your spouse. It will help her recover skins, limbs, and eyes. As for her spine, scales, horns, wings, and the other¡ I am sorry, but it seems you must ask our Fox Race''s Medical Department to know how to restore them."
"Thank you¡ Thank you very much." The male lizard did not hesitate and epted it.
The male lizard kept thanking Instructor Mei Lan and said that he would definitely do everything if she needs his helpter.
They exchanged some pleasantries before Instructor Mei Lan bid farewell to him.
But before she went away from there, Instructor Mei Lan gave one more gift to the male lizard.
She took out the crippled Patriarch Lin from her space pouch and gave it to the male lizard.
The male lizard looked so surprised when Instructor Mei Lan did that, but Instructor Mei Lan did not mind his reaction and left with all of her students.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Tang Li Xue took out their Wind Riding Birds from their space pouches.
The Wind Riding Birds immediately soared into the skies after Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and Bing Yi rode on their backs.
They could faintly hear the painfulst shout from Patriarch Lin from behind, but no one really cared about his fate.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled when she looked at Tang Li Xue''s sulked expression.
Instructor Mei Lan knew that Tang Li Xue was upset because she used so many of her talismans in this mission.
Instructor Mei Lan took out something from her space pouch and threw it to Tang Li Xue: "Here! Take it!"
Tang Li Xue reflexively caught it with both of her hands. When she nced at what Instructor Mei Lan had thrown to her, she instantly realized that it was the two parts of the Ancient Martial Art Manual: Heavenly Yang Art and Extreme Yin Technique!
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at Tang Li Xue''s dumbfounded expression and did not forget to remind her again: "Destroy it as soon as you remember the content! Also, never tell the content to anyone! Especially to any humans, got it?!"
"Oh? Ah¡ I understand! Instructor Lan, I promise to immediately destroy it after Iprehend it!" It took a few moments before Tang Li Xue woke up from her daze and replied.
Instructor Mei Lanughed at Tang Li Xue''s replied. Forget aboutprehending the content, it was very hard to even read that Ancient Martial Art Manual written in the ancientnguage.
Instructor Mei Lan gave it to Tang Li Xue only to let her satisfy her curiosity.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan would never think that Tang Li Xue has the trantor far mightier than even go*gle and Ba*du, her system.
Chapter 328: [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula]!
Chapter 328: [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]!
Tang Li Xue smiled happily as she unfurled the other half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual about the Heavenly Yang Art.
She put a pondering expression, but she secretly tapped the content of the half Ancient Martial Art Manual and urged her system to work.
Ding!
[Do you want toprehend The Ancient Martial Art: Heavenly Yang Art (Second-Half) with cost 500 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
''All right¡ Here goes nothing! YES!'' Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and replied to her system.
Dizziness and nausea assaulted her mind just like before as the knowledge about the half Ancient Martial Art Manual: Heavenly Wang Art flooded into her mind in an instant.
After she made sure that all the knowledge about theplete Ancient Martial Art Manual entered her mind, Tang Li Xue decided to burn the two scrolls of the Ancient Martial Art Manual with her deep-blue me of pride into nothingness.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded to Tang Li Xue when she saw Tang Li Xue burned the Ancient Martial Art Manual.
It took a few hours for Hei Yinghao to regain his consciousness and recovered from his exhaustion.
Bing Yi started to rebuke Hei Yinghao when he regained his consciousness, but Hei Yinghao did not heed her and approached Tang Li Xue to flirt with her.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have time to y with Hei Yinghao right now.
Tang Li Xue was currently feeding Yaya with delicious foods she bought from the luxurious restaurant at the Residential Building before, and she was also feeding Little Loki with [Umon] grade Beast Cores she bought from Teacher Li Wei.
However, her mind was still pondering deeply about the Ancient Martial Art Manual in her mind.
The content of the Ancient Martial Art Manual was too abstruse for her to understand, and she did not even get how could these two Ancient Martial Art Manual rte to each other?!
The content of these Heavenly Yang Art and Extreme Yin Technique looks like two separated arts and did not seem to be rted to each other at all!
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead in confusion.
She already spent 1,000 Deity Coins toprehend these Heavenly Yang Art and Extreme Yin Technique, so of course, she wanted to get the maximum benefit from it.
Tang Li Xue could also learn these two martial arts separately, but the requirement to learn them was very stringent.
She doubted she could learn these two ancient martial arts in such a short time. It would probably take her several years to grasp it.
Rather than waste so much time learning the two iplete ancient martial arts, she would rather choose to learn oneplete OP ancient martial art, thebination of these two iplete ancient martial arts!
Tang Li Xue thought for a while before saying to her system in her mind: ''System, can you help me tobine these two ancient martial arts into one?''
Ding!
[Many data has been damaged and lost when these two Ancient Martial Arts separated in two.]
[System will match the fragmented martial arts with the record from the database. The cost for the ess will be 500 Deity Coins. Do you agree? Yes/No]
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath when she saw the message log from her system.
''500 Deity Coins again?! What the hell?! It is so expensive! Grrr¡ This money eating system is so¡?!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl white teeth in anger and frustration.
"What''s wrong, Little Xue? Do you have constipation now?" Hei Yinghao earnestly asked with a worried tone.
But the current Tang Li Xue was still angry and pissed off, so she immediately kicked Hei Yinghao away.
Hei Yinghao almost fell down from his ck Wind Riding Bird, but he quickly grabbed the neck of his ck Wind Riding Bird to stabilize himself.
Hei Yinghao put his wronged expression again while stared pitifully from behind.
Bing Yiughed mockingly at Hei Yinghao and started to ridicule him which made both of them argued with each other again.
While Instructor Mei Lan did not mind them and kept leading the way in front of them all.
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes to calm down herself for a moment before taking her choice: ''I hope this system will not disappoint me this time. YES!''
Ding!
[Found the matching martial art in the record from the database!]
[Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]¡ [Matching level is at 57.12%.]
''What?! [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]? Not [Extreme Yin and Yang Heavenly Form]?'' Tang Li Xue felt an even greater headache right now when she saw the different name of ancient martial art from her system.
''System, why the hell is the name different from what is written in those ancient martial art manuals?! Thebined version should be called [Extreme Yin and Yang Heavenly Form], right?!'' Tang Li Xue asked her system.
Ding!
[There is no martial art named [Extreme Yin and Yang Heavenly Form] recorded in the system''s database.]
[The only reason for that should be the [Extreme Yin and Yang Heavenly Form] is the simplified lesser version of the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] to make it easier to learned and mastered.]
''Simplified lesser version? Heaven-rank Ancient Martial Art Manual is only the simplified lesser version? Then just how powerful is this [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]?!'' Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise and delight.
''It seems I hit a jackpot this time! Uwehehehe¡ Muahahaha¡'' Tang Li Xue almost wanted tough out loud, but she forcefully suppressed it since she was with Instructor Mei Lan and the others right now.
They would probably think she already go crazy if she did that in front of them.
''All right! Let''s see just how powerful is this [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]!'' Tang Li Xue thought while seductively licked her pink lips.
Tang Li Xue pondered deeply for a few moments.
Her smile slowly faded away and was reced by a deep frown.
''Eh¡ What? What a minute¡ System, why I can''t understand any of this thing?'' Tang Li Xue asked her system again.
Ding!
[Do you want toprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] with cost 1,000 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
Tang Li Xue almost passed out in dejection and anger when she saw the message log from her system.
''The hell?! I must pay 1,000 Deity coins again?! Ooh,e on! I already spent 1,500 Deity Coins toprehend the two Ancient Martial Arts and find the matchingbination for it! I only have a little bit more than 600 Deity Coins right now! How the hell I could pay for that?!'' Tang Li Xue screamed to her system in her mind.
She felt like she had been badly scammed by her own system right now.
Ding!
[The original cost toprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] is 3,000 Deity Coins. The system already took the previous payment into ount and appropriately deducts the cost.]
''This system¡ why does it feel like a multi-level marketing salesman right now?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed with an odd expression.
''Sigh¡ Whatever¡ It seems I must start to gather 400 Deity Coins to pay for it¡ No, I need about 200 Deity Coins too to learn the next part of the [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] after I breakthrough to Acupuncture Opening Stage¡ So I need 600 Deity Coins right now.'' Tang Li Xue pondered her next move carefully.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone with delight as she thought: ''That is right! I am ready to breakthrough to Acupuncture Opening Stage right now. Why don''t I take this chance while I traveling outside of Myriad Foxes Academy with Instructor Lan to breakthrough?!''
''I can even get Instructor Lan''s protection for free when I breakthrough to Acupuncture Opening Stageter! Ehehehe¡ I am so smart!'' Tang Li Xue thought as her eyes shone brighter.
After determined her decision, Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and called: "Instructor Lan, can I ask for your help for a moment?"
"Hm? What?" Instructor Mei Lan turned around and asked with a curious expression.
"Errr¡ I got an epiphany when I read that Ancient Martial Art Manual, and it seems I will have some breakthrough in my cultivation." Tang Li Xue tried to exin, but only vaguely.
Instructor Mei Lan raised her eyebrow in amazement and asked again: "Breakthrough in cultivation? Do you mean you are ready to evolve again? To be a Beast Lord? How could it be so fast?! You evolved into a demonic beast just recently!"
Tang Li Xue immediately shook her head like a rattle drum to deny it and said: "No! I am not evolving. Um¡ Maybe something like minor evolution since I will be stronger, but I will not get a new divine ability."
Instructor Mei Lan pondered for a few moments while staring judgingly at Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan''s stare made Tang Li Xue really nervous, and she subconsciously lowered her head in guilt because of her dishonesty.
Just from this habit of hers, Instructor Mei Lan could already judge that Tang Li Xue lied to her, or maybe Tang Li Xue hid some truths from her.
Either way, Instructor Mei Lan did not mind it at all.
Anyone should have their own secret. Something that they did not want anyone else to know about it.
Even Instructor Mei Lan also had these kinds of secrets.
"Can you hold it for now? I will definitely help you, but we need toplete this mission as soon as possible first. Because who knows if the remains of the Lin Family will escape to somewhere else after they heard their family''s main residence already got destroyed by the Lizard nter." Instructor Mei Lan exined to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding to Instructor Mei Lan and replied: "That is okay. I understand. I can still hold for now."
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently at Tang Li Xue and patted her head a few times.
It only took them a few hours to arrive at the ce where the remains of the Lin Family resided now.
It was a small town quite far from Misty Mountain Peak.
The remains of the Lin Family live together inside the small mansion in the middle of this town.
Chapter 329: Is This Really The Right Thing To Do?
Chapter 329: Is This Really The Right Thing To Do?
Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the others urged their Wind Riding Birds tond a few miles from that small town.
They stored their Wind Riding Birds into their space pouches, and all of them decided to head toward the small town by walking to not draw any unwanted attention.
The entrance of this town looked a bit shabby.
There was ''Changwei Town'' carved on the wooden namete above the town''s entrance.
Instructor Mei Lan and her students blended with the crowds of people then entered the town with them.
Different from the tightly guarded Quanhai City, this Changwei Town was only a small town after all.
There should be only a few hundred people living in this Changwei Town.
All the houses here were made from the woods from the nearby forest. Almost all of the houses also looked shabby except for a few buildings at the center of the town.
Instructor Mei Lan led Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao to enter the biggest restaurant in this Changwei Town.
Although this restaurant was the best one in Changwei Town, but the standard still quite lowpared with any normal restaurant in a big city like Quanhai City.
Tang Li Xue and the others still followed Instructor Mei Lan''s rules by not talking since they entered this Changwei Town, but their eyes kept looking around brimming with curiosity.
For Tang Li Xue, this was only the second time she entered the town or city after she reincarnated into this Immortal World.
But for Bing Yi, this was her first time to enter the human''s town or city, so she looked the most curious among them all.
As for Hei Yinghao, he looked calm and collected like Instructor Mei Lan, so perhaps this was not only his first or second time.
Instructor Mei Lan chose the table at the left corner of the restaurant and sat on the seat there.
Tang Li Xue and the others followed Instructor Mei Lan and took a seat there too.
Instructor Mei Lan skilfully ordered some foods and drinks from the waiter while asked a few questions to look for some useful information.
"We want to move into this town in the next few days. Can I ask which house is on sale here? My family is quite big, so I want a quite big mansion in the center of the town." Instructor Mei Lan asked the waiter as she shoved a gold coin into the waiter''s hand.
The expression of the waiter changed from shocked to delight after he realized what was given by Instructor Mei Lan to him.
"But¡ It will be quite hard to buy the big mansion in the center of the town right now. There seems to be an important family that moving house into this town just recently and they just bought two biggest mansions in the center of the town." The waiter reluctantly told Instructor Mei Lan since he was afraid that Instructor Mei Lan would take the gold coin back after she heard it.
"Oh? An important family? Tell me everything you know about this family. I would like to see if I can buy that mansion from themter." Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and asked again.
The waiter dly told Instructor Mei Lan everything he knew about it.
This important family came into this Changwei Town was more than a week ago, and they seem to know Changwei Town''s mayor quite well since they could immediately buy the two biggest mansions at the heart of Changwei Town.
They also had so many experts with high cultivation worked as their guards.
Of course, the experts with high cultivation this waiter had mentioned were only at Qi Cultivation Stage or Acupuncture Opening Stage.
For a small town with Qi Cultivation Stage cultivator as their mayor, all of the cultivators at Qi Cultivation Stage or Acupuncture Opening Stage were already very powerful in their eyes.
Instructor Mei Lan thanked the waiter after she got all the necessary information from him, including the exact locations of those two mansions.
Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the others did not even touch any of the drinks and foods.
They immediately went out from that restaurant and heading to those two mansions.
Tang Li Xue could not hold her curiosity and asked Instructor Mei Lan: "Instructor Mei Lan, why we can''t touch any of the foods or drinks from humans? It is only the foods and drinks from restaurants, so they should be safe, right?"
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and replied: "That''s right. Those foods and drinks should be safe. But should you wait until it is not safe to not drink or eat it?! By that time, you should already lose your life, and it would be toote for you to regret it!"
"All of you must always remember to never eat any foods or drinks from the humans. But you can pretend to eat or drink in front of them if you must. You can also use some trick to let them think that you eat or drink it." Instructor Mei Lan warned her students in a stern tone.
After Instructor Mei Lan and her students walked a few tens of meters away from that restaurant, Instructor Mei Lan turned around and waved her sleeve toward that restaurant.
The people nearby did not find her movement strange at all, but Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao knew that Instructor Mei Lan actually sent out apressed vibration sword toward the restaurant.
The transparent vibration sword easily prated the wooden wall of the restaurant and in a few people in there, including the waiter they talked to just now.
"GYAAAA!!!"
"AAAAAHHH~!!!"
The people in that restaurant shouted in shock and fright.
The situation inside the restaurant became really chaotic as the people inside shouted and ran out from there.
"Also, never leave any witness or evidence behind. Many humans are quite smart, so they might be able to use it to track or trace it back to find us." Instructor Mei Lan said to all of her students before leading them toward the two mansions.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao did not feel it strange as they followed Instructor Mei Lan closely from behind.
Only Tang Li Xue still felt so shocked and bewildered.
She took a nce at the restaurant for a few moments before decided to chase after Instructor Mei Lan.
''Is¡ Is this really okay? That people did not even try to attack or hurt us, but we killed them just like that?! That... feel isn''t right!'' Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and think.
Tang Li Xue took a nce at Instructor Mei Lan for a moment, but she looked calm and unperturbed as usual.
Tang Li Xue also looked at Bing Yi and Hei Yinhao, but they still bantered with each other as usual.
Lastly, Tang Li Xue took a glimpse at Yaya and Little Loki, but they lookedzy and sleepy as usual too.
Tang Li Xue felt really ufortable with this situation, but she forced herself to not think about it further like them.
It did not take long for Instructor Mei Lan and all of her students to arrive at the two mansions.
It was already night by now, Instructor Mei Lan approached the two mansions with her students, but they immediately blocked by the guards before they even reached the gate of the mansion.
"Stop! Who are you people?! State your identity and business foring here or we will forcefully arrest you all!" The guards shouted to Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the others.
Instructor Mei Lan and the other wore their ck cloaks and used the ck hoods to cover their face, so they looked really suspicious right now.
"Excuse me, Mister Guard. We are the people sent by the town mayor to find Lin Family''s mansion, but it seems we are lost right now. Can you please tell us where the Lin Family''s mansion really is?" Instructor Mei Lan politely asked the guards while showed her delicate beautiful face to them.
The guards started to hesitate, and they nced toward each other for a few moments before one of them replied: "Wait a minute, we will tell our captain about this first. We probably will need to call the city mayor and asked him to attest for your identities."
However, Instructor Mei Lan already confirmed that this two side by side big mansions belonged to the remains of the Lin Family from their words.
"Bingbing and Silly Fox will go to the right mansion and kill everyone there. Do not let anyone live! I and Little Xue will take the left one." Instructor Mei Lan instructed her students with her [Telepathy] skill.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao nodded to Instructor Mei Lan with solemn expressions before they sprinted to the mansion on the right side.
And thus the night of massacre begins¡
Instructor Mei Lan leisurely waved her palm towards the two guards in front of the gate and¡
PPPUUUFFFFF~!!!
Their heads soundlessly fell onto the ground.
Withpressed vibration from her [Demonic Tune], Instructor Mei Lan''s had be the sharpest de capable of tearing even the steel or wall.
Instructor Mei Lan easily cut the front gate into tiny pieces like it was made from tofu and walked into the courtyard of the left mansion.
Tang Li Xue was still stunned silly right now.
She thought they would secretly sneak into the two mansions and assassinate the remains of the Lin Family.
She never thought that they would do it in this fashion.
''Wh¡ Why the hell are we doing it like it?! Isn''t this the job of Executor ss to assassinate people?!'' Tang Li Xue screamed in her mind.
"Little Xue, let''s go! Follow me closely! Do not fall behind!" Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue with a stern tone again.
Chapter 330: The Gray Colored World
Chapter 330: The Gray Colored World
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply.
She decided to store Yaya and Little Loki in her system pet storage because she was afraid that this massacre would bring bad influence to the immature Yaya and Little Loki.
After doing that, Tang Li Xue followed Instructor Mei Lan closely from behind.
Instructor Mei Lan led Tang Li Xue to enter deeper into the courtyard and heading to the mansion''s gate.
Meanwhile, the other guards or mercenaries from the Lin Family started to realize the presence of Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue.
Some of them rung the emergency bell while the others already unsheathed their weapons and charged toward Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan leisurely waved her palm. The intense vibration concentrated on her palm even made the space around her palm distorted a little.
She chopped the attacker''s weapons along with their body so easily like cutting the vegetables in the kitchen.
There was nothing much for Tang Li Xue to do, but she decided to condense twelve white-colored swords with her [Energy Maniption] andpressed it into four extremely sharp white-colored swords.
Different from Instructor Mei Lan who was ying everyone in her sight, Tang Li Xue was only ying the people who attacked her first.
Tang Li Xue''s deed did not go unnoticed by Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan silently sighed in disappointment.
Among all of her students, Instructor Mei Lan actually put most of her expectations on Tang Li Xue.
But right now, she finally realized Tang Li Xue''s weaknesses.
No, Instructor Mei Lan already knew about this soft part of Tang Li Xue before, but not to this extend.
Instructor Mei Lan thought that Tang Li Xue only looked naive and tender to her friends from Fox Race or the other Beast Race, but it seems she also acted like that even to the enemy of Beast Race, the Human Race.
From this mission, Instructor Mei Lan already showed the cruel part of the Human Race to Tang Li Xue, but she still acted so softly like this to Human Race.
''Sigh¡ It seems I am too hasty about this. No one will know the pain if they never fall and get injured after all. Let''s see if I can let Little Xue understand about itter¡'' Instructor Mei Lan thought as she kept ying all the guards who brandished their weapons towards her.
The pungent smell of blood permeated everywhere as blood sshed at every corner of this courtyard.
Even the flowers, grasses, and the water in the pool dyed in the crimson color of blood.
This was amon urrence for Instructor Mei Lan, but it was only the second time for Tang Li Xue.
The first time was when she ughtered the ck-clothed men in the second trial of entrance test to Myriad Foxes Academy because they almost killed her Yaya before.
At that time, Tang Li Xue had a clear conscience and felt that she was doing something right since those ck-clothed men were not weak, and they also already killed so many people and foxes.
But right now, Tang Li Xue was not sure, and she felt really hesitating.
When Tang Li Xue was still a little bit absentminded, it did not take long for Instructor Mei Lan to clear all the people in the courtyard.
After she made sure that there was no one left in the courtyard, Instructor Mei Lan led Tang Li Xue to enter the mansion.
Of course, the mansion''s gate was sealed shut so tightly from inside right now, but it did not prevent Instructor Mei Lan from going inside in the slightest.
With the intense vibration de concentrated on her palm, Instructor Mei Lan easily chopped the front gate into tiny pieces and entered the mansion.
When Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue entered the mansion, all the guards inside were already in neat formation and each of them held a strengthened crossbow in their hands.
"SHOOT!!!" The captain of the guards shouted just when Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue barged into the mansion.
PANG!!! PANG!!! PANG!!! PANG!!! PANG!!!
More than eighty arrows were released at once!
The tip of each arrow was carved with ''sharp'' and ''prate'' inscription to increase its lethality to the maximum.
Each of these arrows was also smeared with deadly poison, which was more than enough to even take the life of the Acupuncture Opening Stage Cultivator.
Tang Li Xue quickly used her [Energy Maniption] to create a wall to block all of those arrows, but Instructor Mei Lan already moved faster than her.
Instructor Mei Lan casually put a snapping fingers gesture and¡
CCCLAAAAANKKK~!!!
When Instructor Mei Lan snapped her fingers, the air around her started to vibrate so intensely, and it even began to spread with the sound speed.
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s wall and all of those arrows were exploded into pieces the moment that destructive vibrating air touched them.
The ear-deafening sound magnified many times by the [Heavenly Sound] divine ability plus the destructive air vibration created from [Demonic Tune] was always Instructor Mei Lan''s special unique move.
Even the current Tang Li Xue still felt really dizzy and nauseous when Instructor Mei Lan''s attack hit her.
She even almost coughed out a mouthful of blood right now, but she forcefully held it. It would be a big embarrassment if she did that in front of Instructor Mei Lan since they already sparred so many times, and she already received this move so many times from Instructor Mei Lan until now.
By ''spar'', Tang Li Xue means was that Instructor Mei Lan beat her along with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao down one-sidedly in the name of Fighting Lesson before.
As for all the guards in front of them, they have a much weaker constitution than Tang Li Xue, so their bodies already burst out like balloons since they could not withstand the intense air vibration.
Not only that, even themps, ss, vases, furniture, teapot, cups, and many other things were shattered to pieces because of Instructor Mei Lan''s attack.
The front hall went dark in that instant. The blood of those guards has dyed the cracked mansion floor and walls with their eerie crimson color.
Tang Li Xue''s feeling was affected too, and she became gloomy.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan waspletely unaffected, and she calmly scanned the entire mansion with her [Sonar] skill to find out how many people still alive inside this mansion.
"There are still some guards, maids, and butlers on the second floor, but most of the remnant from Lin Family take shelter in the secret underground room." Instructor Mei Lan murmured to let Tang Li Xue know.
"Sh¡ should I go to¡ kill the people on the second floor?" Tang Li Xue stuttered a bit when she talked to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xue and felt that Tang Li Xue''s condition was quite unsteady right now.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and replied: "No need. You do not need to do anything. You only need to follow me closely and watch me from behind."
After saying that, Instructor Mei Lan headed to the second floor while Tang Li Xue followed her order and only watched her from behind.
Instructor Mei Lan easily ughtered everyone on the second floor without leaving anyone alive before heading toward the secret underground room.
It seems they need some kind of key to trigger the mechanism and opened the way to the secret underground room.
But Instructor Mei Lan clearly did not need that.
She only needed to use her vibration de to chop everything on her way!
It only took a few minutes for Instructor Mei Lan to open a way to the secret underground room.
Tang Li Xue gasped in surprise when she arrived at the secret underground room with Instructor Mei Lan.
There were only some weak old grandmothers, powerless mothers hugged their own children or babies, and several young teens.
There were no more cultivators, guards, or anyone strong here.
Even the cultivation of these young teens was only at Body Tempering Stage.
Tang Li Xue saw hopelessness, despair, anger, hatred, and many other feelings shown from their eyes.
Some of the mothers even started to beg Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan to at least spare their babies or children, while their old grandmother cried to ask for their mercy.
"Ins¡ Instructor Lan, do we really need to¡" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a trembling voice.
But Instructor Mei Lan moved in an instant without waiting for Tang Li Xue to finish her words!
Instructor Mei Lan mercilessly waved her palm and chopped all of the living humans in her sight into tiny pieces with the vibration de concentrated on her palm.
When Tang Li Xue saw that scene with her own eyes, she reflexively wanted to stop Instructor Mei Lan, but in the end, she was still hesitating for a few moments.
In that few moments, Instructor Mei Lan had already in all the living humans in the secret underground room without caring about their age.
Babies, teens, young women, old women... She killed all of them.
When Tang Li Xue saw the dead bodies of those people, she started to puke.
Instructor Mei Lan did not pay any attention to the puking Tang Li Xue and said: "Let''s go! We will go to the left mansion to help Bingbing and Silly Fox."
When Instructor Mei Lan walked out from the secret underground room, she told a few more words to Tang Li Xue: "Those people should be d. At least those people died without any suffering. Do you remember what happened to that female lizard? Our fate will be much worse than that female lizard if we lose or get caught by any humans, so you should always remember. Human Race will be always our enemies."
Chapter 331: Emergency Mission!
Chapter 331: Emergency Mission!
Tang Li Xue was stunned for a few moments after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
''Sigh... Why the heck is it like this?! Here I thought I could lead a fulfilling life like the main characters from the Xianxia novels in my previous life. Be an immortal hero by exterminating evil and upholding justice.'' Tang Li Xueined in her mind.
''But... who is evil and who is right?! I do not even know what justice is anymore?! There is no ck or white in this world... Everything... is gray here.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation as she followed Instructor Mei Lan from behind with a depressed mood.
''But there is only one truth that I managed to know from all of these... Only someone with enough strength has the right to determine their own fate. In the end, everything still depends on the individual strength to achieve it.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
.....
...
.
When Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue arrived at the other mansion, the task was given by Instructor Mei Lan to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao was already half done.
With Hei Yinghao took the vanguard position, while Bing Yi took the rearguard position, the two of them easily killed every guard on the courtyard and forcefully broke into the mansion.
In fact, they were doing it so easily without any difficulty since they finally could use their divine abilities to fight.
Both of them currently already killed many of the guards inside the mansion.
With Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue came to help them, the task to ''clean'' this mansion was finished in only one or two minutes.
Just like in the first mansion, the remains of the Lin Family were hiding in the secret underground room below the mansion.
After Instructor Mei Lan and the others slew every living people on the first and second floor of the mansion, all of them were heading toward the secret underground room.
This time Instructor Mei Lan decided to not immediately kill all the people here.
It was clearly not because she felt pity or sorry for them, but because she wanted to ask about the copies of the half Ancient Martial Art Manual and if there were still the other remains of Lin Family alive somewhere else.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan used her [Heavenly Sound] divine ability, the [Second Song: Hypnosis Melody] to them, so they would not be able to choose to stay mum or tell any lie to her.
These remains of the Lin Family told Instructor Mei Lan that there were only two copies of the half Ancient Martial Art Manual.
One of the copies was with them, and the other one was with the Lin Family at the other mansion.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan already retrieved both of them and destroyed them. She only wanted to know if these people made more copies of this half Ancient Martial Art Manual without Patriarch Lin''s knowledge.
As for the other people of the Lin Family other than them, there was actually still a few left.
But they were not here because they could note back to defend their home or have gone missing for some reason.
For example, some younger generations of the Lin Family were the core disciples of virtuous sects. They were in closed-door cultivation to break through to a higher stage, so they were not allowed to get out by their masters.
Some elders of the Lin Family were even trapped in the closed space somewhere and waiting to be rescued, but the Lin Family could not send any help because they were facing the predicament against Lizard n too.
There were also several other cases like this, but it was truly too troublesome for Instructor Mei Lan to hunt them one by one in those kinds of situations.
After extracted all the information she needs from them, Instructor Mei Lan decided to mercilessly y all of them regardless of their age or gender just like before.
Instructor Mei Lan nced at the absentminded Tang Li Xue and her other students, then said: "Let''s get out from here now and do not forget to burn everything down, so we will not identally leave any clue or trace behind!"
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao nodded to Instructor Mei Lan and followed her to get out of this mansion.
Tang Li Xue also woke up from her daze and nodded at Instructor Mei Lan with a solemn expression.
Tang Li Xue waved her palm around to burn everything around her with her me of Pride, but Instructor Mei Lan immediately stopped her before she did that.
"Your deep-blue me is too eye-catching, so it would be easy for the other people to track it back to youter if you used it again in front of the others. It would be better if we use the ordinary me to burn everything." Instructor Mei Lan exined to Tang Li Xue.
"Oh, that is right... I am sorry, Instructor Lan." Tang Li Xue put out her deep-blue me of pride and apologized.
"It''s all right. All of you must remember... There is no such a thing as being too careful! Because being more careful would not hurt you, it will not only save your own life but also save all of yourrades'' lives. Sometimes even a tiny mistake could make you and all of yourrades lost your lives." Instructor Mei Lan gave another piece of important advice to her students.
Instructor Mei Lan lighted the fire with Tang Li Xue and the others, they started burning the Lin Family''s two mansions and their courtyards with that fire.
The fire was spreading very fast with the help of Instructor Mei Lan''s divine abilities.
Even Tang Li Xue and the others did not get how Instructor Mei Lan did it, but the fire was consuming the two mansions and their courtyards really fast.
When Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the others already went out of that mansion, the fire was already spreading everywhere, and it made many residents of Changwei Town wake up from their sleep.
Those residents of Changwei Town started shouting and screaming in panic.
The situation at the center of Changwei Town became very chaotic at that instant.
Tang Li Xue threw her [Talisman of Stealthy +2] to Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao to make them turned invisible, then she activated her [Ethereal Form] to turn herself invisible too.
Different from Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] divine ability, the [Talisman of Stealthy +2] only made the user much harder to notice than usual, but it was already more than enough to make them go out from the Changwei Town unnoticed by anyone here.
Actually, Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao could still easily slip out of Changwei Town without being noticed by anyone even without using Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Stealthy +2] because the situation at the center of Changwei Town was very chaotic right now with so many people ran back and forth while carrying some buckets of water to put down the raging fire.
But of course, just like what Instructor Mei Lan had said to Tang Li Xue and the others before: ''Being more careful would not hurt you, it will not only save your own life but also save all of yourrades'' lives.''
Changwei Town was not a big town after all, so Instructor Mei Lan and her students only need to sprint for ten minutes or so to run out from Changwei Town and entered the nearby forest.
It did not take long for them to distance themselves from Changwei Town and took out their Wind Riding Birds from their space pouches.
"Instructor Lan, is it all right to leave just like that? What if those citizens managed to put out the me?" Bing Yi asked Instructor Mei Lan with a curious tone.
Tang Li Xue already canceled her [Ethereal Form] divine ability and took out her white-colored Wind Riding Bird from her space pouch too, but she curiously nced over at Instructor Mei Lan to know the answer to Bing Yi''s question.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and replied: "Don''t worry. The me is already grown so big. They would at least need to work hard until dawn before they could manage to put out that me. At that time, almost everything in those two mansions would already turn into ashes."
Bing Yi, Tang Li Xue, and Hei Yinghao nodded in understanding after they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s reply.
All of them rode their own respective Wind Riding Bird, and the bird brought them soaring into the sky.
"Sigh¡ Finally, we can go back to Myriad Foxes Academy. I am quite tired mentally because of this mission. I want to take eat many delicious foods, take a clean bath, and sleep tightly on my soft bed." Tang Li Xueined while she also took this time to summon Yaya and Little Loki out from her system''s pet storage again.
"Ya! Yayaya~!!!"
"Nya~! Nya Nya¡ Meow~!!!"
It seems both Yaya and Little Loki have sulked because Tang Li Xue suddenly stored them in that ce, so they immediately grumbled to Tang Li Xue when she took them out.
Instructor Mei Lan sneered mockingly at Tang Li Xue''s statement, and shezily said: "Who said we wille back to Myriad Foxes Academy right now?"
Tang Li Xue: "Eh? Ehhhh?! What?!"
Bing Yi: "Really? Where are we going now?"
Hei Yinghao: "Instructor Lan, what do you mean?"
Tang Li Xue and the others eximed in shock and bewilderment.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at their chain reaction and exined: "I also nned to return to Myriad Foxes Academy after this mission at first. But I suddenly got an emergency mission from mission hallst night."
"E¡ Emergency Mission?!" Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao shouted in surprise at the same time.
"Yep! Surprisingly, it is even an A-grade emergency mission! So you better prepare yourself!" Instructor Mei Lan said as she giggled happily at their misfortune.
Chapter 332: Breakthrough to Acupuncture Opening Stage!
Chapter 332: Breakthrough to Acupuncture Opening Stage!
Tang Li Xue became a bit depressed after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
''Hopefully, it is not another cruel mission like the previous one. ying weak women, elderly people, children, and even babies really hurt my conscience so badly. I rather have the fight against the Evil Sects again rather than doing that.'' Tang Li Xue prayed sincerely in her heart.
"But before I exin about our next mission... Little Xue, you said that you want to do something like a ''breakthrough in cultivation'' or whatever it is. Where and when you want to do it? Do you want us to help you with something? You can say it to us now." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan''s sudden change of topic made Tang Li Xue quite surprised.
"Eh? AH! That''s right! I almost forget about that¡ Err... For the time, as soon as possible, of course. As for the ce, maybe somewhere remote. I would be rather defenselesster, so I hope all of you can help to protect me at that time." Tang Li Xue said to Instructor Mei Lan and the others.
Yaya was the first to respond to Tang Li Xue and patted her chest to reassure Tang Li Xue as if she was saying: ''You can count on me for this.''
"Nyaaa~!" Little Loki did not do something exaggerating like Yaya. It still satzily on Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and only patted Tang Li Xue''s shoulder with its paw.
Tang Li Xue giggled softly at them.
She gently caressed Little Loki''s furry head and Yaya''s tiny head while thanked them.
"That is not hard. All of you follow me! We will head to the southwest for two hundreds of miles or so from here." Instructor Mei Lan said as she led them toward the southwest.
It did not take long for them to arrive at the ce chosen by Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue thought it would be the remote forest, but Instructor Mei Lan actually chose the valley near the river.
Even Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao did not get why Instructor Mei Lan chose this ce.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at her students'' confused looks and exined: "All of you better do not look down on this valley! Do you all know that this valley is called Death Valley?"
"Death Valley?!" Tang Li Xue and the others eximed in surprise since the name of this ce was so ominous.
"Yep, Death Valley! Because the underground of this ce is filled with poisonous gas, and sometimes that poisonous gas would gush onto the surface. The poisonous gas is also quite dangerous. It is more than enough to kill any Demonic beast or Acupuncture Opening Stage Cultivator in one whiff." Instructor Mei Lan patiently exined to her students.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao immediately raised their guards to the maximum, and they started to look at their surroundings warily.
Instructor Mei Lanughed at their sudden reaction and said: "You all do not need to worry. Do you remember how my [Sonar] ability works? With my [Sonar] ability, I can easily detect which spot is the safest, or which spot is the most dangerous one here."
Tang Li Xue and the others immediately realized Instructor Mei Lan''s [Sonar] ability and sighed in relief.
Instructor Mei Lan led all of her students deeper into the Death Valley while kept using her [Sonar] ability to detect which spot would the poisonous gas gush out and avoid approaching that spot.
Instructor Mei Lan showed Tang Li Xue the safest ce at the center of that Death Valley and told Tang Li Xue to do her business there while Instructor Mei Lan herself, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao would guard a few hundred meters around her.
Tang Li Xue nodded with a solemn expression at Instructor Mei Lan and sat in the lotus position at the ce where Instructor Mei Lan showed to her.
Meanwhile, Yaya and Little Loki already jumped down from the top of Tang Li Xue''s head and shoulder, then guarding by her right and left sides closely.
Actually, Tang Li Xue felt really nervous and unwilling to do it here.
She would rather do it in her room at the Residential Building in the Myriad Foxes Academy than here, but she was afraid that her secret of having Dantian and could cultivate like a human before reaching Spirit Beast Rank would be revealed if she did it in her room.
''Sigh¡ Oh well, it is not like that I can back down after Instructor Lan brings me here. Let''s begin now! Umm¡ Let''s see¡ It seems I must choose my second Mythical Guardian Beast after Crimson Phoenix¡'' Tang Li Xue sighed and began to ponder carefully.
In order to breakthrough to Acupuncture Opening Stage, Tang Li Xue had to choose one of the four Mythical Guardian Beasts other than Crimson Phoenix which she already cultivated before.
Tang Li Xue did not have any skills or divine abilities with lightning elemental, so she immediately kicked the Azure Dragon of Lightning Elemental out from her mind for now.
In the end, Tang Li Xue felt really hesitant between the White Tiger of Wind Elemental or the ck Tortoise of Water Elemental.
If she chose the White Tiger, her elemental affinity with wind would boost so greatly.
Her time in [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya will extend longer, and she would probably also be much stronger in that form.
But if Tang Li Xue chose ck Tortoise, her elemental affinity with water would increase significantly.
The martial arts trained by the user were always tightly rted to their martial soul.
From that fact, Tang Li Xue could conclude in certain that Her [Golden Winged Serpent] would certainly grow so much stronger if she cultivated the ck Tortoise part of the [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art]!
"ck Tortoise will increase my water affinity and my defense, while White Tiger will increase my wind affinity and my speed. Sigh¡ what a hard choice?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in frustration while rubbed forehead and pondered carefully.
Choosing White Tiger was actually much practical because Tang Li Xue was usually fought in [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya, but she did not want to rely on Yaya too much.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and determined her choice: "Whatever! I must learn all the parts of the [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] in the end! Which one I choose first is not really that important! So, I will choose the ck Tortoise first!"
Ding!
[Do you want toprehend Four Mythical Beast Art (ck Tortoise) with cost 210 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
Tang Li Xue nced at her current Deity Coins in her window status¡ 631 Deity Coins left.
She took a deep breath and said in her mind: ''YES!''
After the system reduced the 210 Deity Coins from her window status, Tang Li Xue instantly understood the ck Tortoise part in the [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] as if the fog which covered some parts of her mind had been cleared out.
Tang Li Xue took out some mid-tier spirit stones from her space pouch and put them right in front of her.
These mid-tier spirit stones were produced by her own martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent], with its [Refining Spirit Energy] unique skill after Little Loki hatched from its egg. Tang Li Xue was slowly saving them up for her next cultivation breakthrough.
"All right! These mid-tier spirit stones should be more than enough, right?! I only consumed less than a tenth of the mid-tier spirit stone when I breakthrough to Qi Condensation Stage after all! Okay, let''s begin!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she took one of the mid-tier spirit stones.
Tang Li Xue started to lick the mid-tier spirit stone in her grasp just like before since she was afraid of getting choked to death because the size of each mid-tier spirit stone was even a bit bigger than her fist.
The mid-tier spirit stone melted bit by bits like candy or ice cream, and the steady stream of warm spiritual energy began to flow into Tang Li Xue''s body.
The warm spiritual energy was immediately converted into EXP by Tang Li Xue''s system.
[Exp Gained!]
[Exp Gained!]
[Exp Gained!]
¡..
Tang Li Xue also started to operate the ck Tortoise part of the [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] ording to what in her mind.
Just like the Crimson Phoenix part of [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] must be cultivated in the very hot ce full of fire and Yang element, this ck Tortoise part must be cultivated in a ce with so much water like ocean or river.
But just like how the me of Pride helped her before, this time her own martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent] was the one who helped her!
RRROOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR~!!!
The deafening roar resounded through the entire part of Death Valley as the giant golden-winged serpent summoned out on its own!
Tang Li Xue was still busily operating her cultivation, so she did not have any free time to control her [Golden Winged Serpent], but her martial soul, the majestic [Golden Winged Serpent], already knew what it must do to help its master.
[Summon Rain]!
Drip¡ Drip¡ Drip¡
The rainwater started to drip from the sky!
It only took a few seconds for the drizzle to turn into heavy rain with the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s unique skill to summon the rain!
The image of the tranquil but steady ck Tortoise began to form in Tang Li Xue''s mind when she used the energy from mid-tier spirit stone to cultivate the ck Tortoise part of Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art].
All the rainwater was stopped and floating on the mid-air as the faint groaning sound of tortoise from time to time.
Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Winged Serpent] also started to roar in excitement as if it happily greeted the ck Tortoise.
BBBWOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
All the water around Tang Li Xue began to swirling with her as the center!
Not long after that, all the water in Death Valley also began to swirling with Tang Li Xue as the center!
In a few minutes, all of that water formed the transparent figure of Tortoise groaning onto the sky.
Chapter 333: Eerie Little Black Kitten!
Chapter 333: Eerie Little ck Kitten!
The giant transparent figure of the tortoise and its deafening groan made Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao, who watched Tang Li Xue from afar, agape in disbelief and shock.
Even Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and smiled ironically, then murmured: "Little Xue, oh, Little Xue¡ Is this only a minor evolution for you?! This is the same as when any beast evolves into Beast Lord!"
"Instructor Lan, will my Little Xue be all right? Will she get suffocated inside that water tortoise?" Hei Yinghao asked Instructor Mei Lan with a worried tone.
Instructor Mei Lan used her [Sonar] ability to detect Tang Li Xue''s condition and replied to Hei Yinghao: "Do not worry, she is more than just good right now. In fact, her strength is still steadily increasing even when she is inside that water tortoise. But it would probably take her a while to umte and stabilize her cultivation."
"Little Xue''s ability is getting stranger and stranger. I do not even get it anymore! She can copy all of our divine abilities, but where did she get the ability to control the water like this?! But I hope she will be okay¡ since the process seems quite dangerous right now!" Bing Yi said while frowned deeply in worry.
"...She will be all right. Her vital organs are still working really well, and her heart is also still beating so strongly. Even the momentum of her aura still keeps climbing up and getting more powerful as the time goes on." Instructor Mei Lan said tofort Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Actually, even Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were not really clear about what Tang Li Xue''s divine abilities really were, but they knew that Tang Li Xue has the divine ability with the power to copy the other divine abilities.
That was why the two of them did not feel anything strange even when Tang Li Xue almost used her deep-blue me of Pride to burn down the mansion previously, or when Tang Li Xue suddenly wore a pair of golden gauntlets and used the divine ability to control the water in the sparring match against Bing Yi before.
However, triggering this kind of phenomenon amid her cultivation breakthrough was certainly too strange and more than just eye-catching.
But Instructor Mei Lan was still calm and unperturbed as always.
She already knew almost all of Tang Li Xue''s secrets anyway.
Instructor Mei Lan guessed that this breakthrough should be rted to Tang Li Xue''s martial soul.
Although, her guess was not quite right, but at least she almost guessed half of it right.
Because something drastic was really happening to her martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent] right now!
Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Winged Serpent] was actually started to coil around the tortoise created from arge amount of water!
In the legend, the ck Tortoise Deity or Xuanwu was thought to be the spiritual creature symbolizing longevity. Its figure was always depicted as the copper ck Tortoise entwined with a snake.
Tang Li Xue''s Tortoise was clearlycking that snake part until her own [Golden Winged Serpent] made up for thatck.
Tang Li Xue was in the middle of the Tortoise. She was submerged by the huge amount of water, but strangely, she did not feel any difort at all, and she could even still breathe as usual.
A steady stream of spiritual energy from the water kept flowing into Tang Li Xue''s body to assist Tang Li Xue''s breakthrough into Acupuncture Opening Stage.
The water elemental spiritual energy flowed in all of her veins and umted inside her Dantian.
This umtion process actually took a few days toplete.
Fortunately, there were Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Yaya, and Little Loki who helped to protect her from any demonic beast or human cultivator that tried to get close to her.
After a few days had passed, there was no more water around Tang Li Xue anymore. All the water had been absorbed by Tang Li Xue.
If someone looked at Tang Li Xue''s Dantian right now, they would certainly very shocked, because the room in her Dantian was divided in two!
The half one looked like the world filled with crimson, deep-blue, and gold mes, while the other half looked like the world of the ocean filled with water!
This was the sign that Tang Li Xue already managed to reach Acupuncture Opening Stage.
Inside the ocean world in Tang Li Xue''s Dantian, her martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent] was swimming around so freely and happily.
Tang Li Xue could feel that her [Golden Winged Serpent] got a steady stream of EXP while it was swimming in the ocean world inside her Dantian.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes and checked her current cultivation level from her window status.

----------
She sighed in relief when she saw her Cultivation Level already reach the Rank 1 Acupuncture Opening Stage in her window status.
''Damn! I am still level 10?! Sigh¡ It seems I must take more quests to increase it faster. I need more Stat Points, but I need more Skill Points the most right now. There are so many things I want to do with Skill Points!'' Tang Li Xue started to ponder her next step.
''Buying new skills to try some newbinations to get more powerful divine abilities,bining all of my innate divine abilities into a higher-grade divine ability, upgrading the almost useless [All Knowing Eyes (Basic)]¡ Argh, too many things I need to do~!!!'' Tang Li Xue groaned as she held her forehead in frustration.
After a few whiles, Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and calmed herself down, then whispered to herself: "All right, one step at a time. At least I managed to get a bit stronger now."
Tang Li Xue stood up andzily stretched her rigid body for a few moments before decided to meet with Instructor Mei Lan and the others.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Yaya, and Little Loki have actually formed a circle formation when protecting Tang Li Xue in the middle of it.
In these few days, Instructor Mei Lan and the others kept killing every demonic beast or human cultivator that got attracted by Tang Li Xue''s breakthrough phenomenon because those beasts or people thought there was a natural precious treasure was born there.
Thankfully, Instructor Mei Lan helped Tang Li Xue by choosing a remote ce like this Death Valley so not many beasts or people noticed the abnormal phenomenon.
If Tang Li Xue did her cultivation breakthrough in the popted ce, even Instructor Mei Lan and the others might not be able to keep all of those beasts or people away from Tang Li Xue.
When Tang Li Xue walked toward Instructor Mei Lan, she saw some dead bodies of beasts or humans under the feet of Instructor Mei Lan and the others including Yaya.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao immediately happily hugged Tang Li Xue and asked if she was okay in a worried tone.
Tang Li Xue giggled at them and exined that she was not only okay, but she also got stronger than before.
Meanwhile, Yaya already swiftly pounced toward Tang Li Xue and rained her with many kisses. Tang Li Xueughed and kissed Yaya back on her cheek.
Little Loki jumped to Tang Li Xue too, and she immediately caught Little Loki, then give it a thank you kiss on its furry forehead.
The atmosphere around them was really cozy and warm.
Only Instructor Mei Lan''s attention was not directed at Tang Li Xue this time, but at the little ck kitten in Tang Li Xue''s embrace.
Instructor Mei Lan always kept tracking the situation around them with her [Sonar] skill.
She was always the first one to know when some beasts or people were approaching them.
But strangely, her [Sonar] skill could not detect Little Loki''s whereabouts at all. Even Instructor Mei Lan herself did not know how Little Loki did it.
Instructor Mei Lan also always carefully warned the others when there were some people or some beasts wereing toward them.
She especially took special notice of Little Loki''s direction because she was afraid that this little ck kitten would not be able to drive away all of its foes.
Instructor Mei Lan did not know Little Loki''s true ability yet after all.
However, Instructor Mei Lan immediately noticed something eerie every time there were some people or some beasts ran toward Little Loki''s direction.
Her [Sonar] skill detected that those people or beasts have vanished like a thin air all of a sudden.
There was no blood spilled.
There were no dead bodies.
There was not even screaming or groaning.
Chapter 334: Emergency A-Grade Mission!
Chapter 334: Emergency A-Grade Mission!
Well... Of course, Little Loki did not leave any trace or dead bodies... It was because it always swallowed all of its targets as a whole.
Instructor Mei Lan squinted her eyes as she stared judgingly at Little Loki in Tang Li Xue''s embrace.
Little Loki noticed Instructor Mei Lan''s stare and stared back at her with its third eye, looking as if it was threatening her.
Their stare locked at each other for a few moments.
"Instructor Lan, I am already done with my cultivation breakthrough. What is our mission now? Where would we go this time?" Tang Li Xue innocently asked Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue''s question identally broke the tense atmosphere between Little Loki and Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan coughed awkwardly and took out the bamboo tube that contained the information about their mission from her space pouch, then gave it to Tang Li Xue first.
Tang Li Xue took the bamboo tube from Instructor Mei Lan''s grasp and tapped it onto her forehead.
The information about the emergency mission rushed into her mind in an instant.
Tang Li Xue thought that the previous B-Grade mission was already very troublesome toplete, but the difficulty of this emergency A-Grade mission even far surpassed the previous B-Grade mission.
However, Tang Li Xue did not really quite understand this A-Grade mission...
Their destination ce this time was Tang Feng City.
Tang Feng City was the imperial city of the Feng Dynasty.
In terms of size, Tang Feng City was several tens of times bigger than Quanhai City.
In terms of splendor, if Tang Feng City was at the level of a luxurious pce, then Quanhai City was only at the level of the dpidated hut.
The reason for this was because the Hong Empire was only an old wilted empire.
Hong Empire was already struck by so many internal and external conflicts that it almost copsed by itself right now.
On the contrary to Hong Empire, Feng Empire was the biggest and the strongest empire in Lightwind Continent.
In terms of elite armies, Feng Empire has more than ten million fully trained elite armies, while Hong Empire only has a total of one hundred thousand armies.
Feng Empire could easily crush Hong Empire any time they wanted it.
The reason why Feng Empire did not do so was that both Feng Empire and Hong Empire were under the same faction, the Immortal Sword Sect''s faction.
It could be said that Feng Empire could reach the current height was due to the full support of the Immortal Sword Sect.
As the strongest virtuous sect, Immortal Sword Sect surely must maintain its image.
Immortal Sword Sect has the most disciples and elderspared to the other sects, so they certainly need more cultivation resourcespared to the other sects. But they could not just invade the other kingdoms or empires then im their cultivation resources like a group of bandits, right?!
That was the reason why Immortal Sword Sect helped the Feng Empire to raise so quickly until it reached the level of the strongest empire in Lightwind Continent!
Immortal Sword Sect used the Feng Empire as their sword to conquer the other empires or kingdoms and took their cultivation resources!
If those empires submit, then Immortal Sword Sect would let them continue to exist, and they only need to offer 70% to 80% of their cultivation resources to Immortal Sword Sect just like Hong Empire.
If those empires refused, then Immortal Sword Sect would use Feng Empire to tten them and forcefully take all of their cultivation resources without defiling Immortal Sword Sect''s reputation.
The immortal Sword Sect even acted as a mediator between Feng Empire and those empires.
Immortal Sword Sect put the righteous acts in front of those small kingdoms or empires and helped them to negotiate with Feng Empire while it was nothing more than just a pretense.
Immortal Sword Sect was ying their part as the good guys, while Feng Empire was ying their part as the bad guys.
Even Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in amazement when sheprehended the information until this part.
In short, different from the previous Quanhai City, their current destination, Tang Feng City, was certainly filled with hidden dragons and crouching tigers (many hidden experts), so Instructor Mei Lan and the others must move really carefully this time.
As for their mission this time...
There were actually serial murders going on in Tang Feng Citytely, and a few hundreds of people from important backgrounds had already died right now.
Of course, this was not the business of Fox Race if it only involved the people from the human race.
But some traces showed that the culprit was from their Fox Race!
Meanwhile, the Immortal Sword Sect already sent their best people to investigate this case about three hours before this mission was released.
Immortal Sword Sect did not only want to find the culprit but also executed the culprit on the spot.
But the mission of Instructor Mei Lan and her students was to find the culprit, and if the culprit was really from their Fox Race, then they must forcefully drag it back to Myriad Foxes Academy.
If the culprit was from the Human Race, then they could kill that person on the spot.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue processed the information in her mind carefully while giving the bamboo tube to Bing Yi.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao took turns to tap the bamboo tube onto their forehead.
After Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao finished, Yaya and Little Loki also took the bamboo tube, then tapped it onto their head.
"Instructor Lan, I still do not really get it... This A-Grade mission tells us to save the culprit of those serial murders and bring it back with us if the culprit is from our Fox Race? Is the Information Department really sure that the culprit is from our Fox Race? Also, why do we need to go this far for the culprit of the serial murders?!" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan in confusion.
Instructor Mei Lan did not answer Tang Li Xue''s question immediately. She took out a small transparent bottle and gave it to Tang Li Xue for her to look at.
Tang Li Xue caught the small transparent bottle and stared at the content carefully.
The content of the small transparent bottle was actually a few strands of pink-colored fox furs.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi also approached Tang Li Xue and looked at the content of the small transparent bottle.
The impatient Hei Yinghao impatiently asked first: "Is this the fox furs?! From that culprit of the serial murders?!"
Instructor Mei Lan slowly exined to them: "That is right! This is the fox furs from one of us. The Information Department even already confirmed the identity of the owner of these fox furs. But they still did not dare to make any careless move since they were afraid that this was actually a trap set by those humans for our Fox Race."
"Rather than our previous B-Grade mission where we need to kill people, our mission as Inspector would usually more like this. We usually deal with the delicate problems between Fox Race and Human Race." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue and the others.
"But it seems our mission this time is much more troublesome than I thought it to be..." Instructor Mei Lan murmured.
Tang Li Xue heard Instructor Mei Lan''sst sentence, so she nced at Instructor Mei Lan and asked with a surprised tone: "This mission is troublesome even for you, Instructor Lan?!"
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi also stared at Instructor Mei Lan with worried expressions after they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled at their expression and exined: "Actually, the mission itself is not that troublesome, but if we take the identity of these fox furs'' owner into ount, the difficulty would increase by many times for us."
"Identity... of the culprit?!" Tang Li Xue, Hei Yinghao, and Bing Yi skeptically shouted at the same time.
"Yes, the owner of these fox furs is the daughter of the Education Department''s council. She fell in love with a male human and eloped with him tens of years before. Her father, one of the Education Department''s councils, angrily disowned her as his daughter after that. But the blood is always thicker than water, although his father said so, but he immediately released this emergency mission once they heard the news about his daughter." Instructor Mei Lan concluded her exnation.
Tang Li Xue and the others nodded their head in understanding after they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation.
The culprit of those serial murders might actually the daughter of an important higher-up in Myriad Foxes Academy.
In short, no matter if the culprit of those serial murders was a human or a fox, they must drag the daughter of that important higher-up back into Myriad Foxes Academy!
Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue and the others the information about the culprit: "The daughter of that Education Department''s council is actually my old ssmate from Inspector ss. Her name is Zuo Hongzhuang. She has illusion-type divine abilities. She can easily disguise herself as anyone. It will not be easy for us to find her."
"She is also a really meticulous fox, so it is impossible for her to carelessly leave her fur behind for us to find. In my opinion, she must be in some kind of trouble and purposefully leave her furs behind so we can find it." Instructor Mei Lan carefully deduced it.
The mouths of Tang Li Xue, Hei Yinghao, and Bing Yi were twitched violently.
This was only their second mission, and they must face the other Inspector Instructor at the level of their Instructor Mei Lan?!
You must be joking, right?!
"Oh right... I almost forgot to tell you. She is already at spirit beast rank. Although, she is only a fake spirit beast rank. So all of you must be really careful if you meet with herter." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue and the others with a rxed tone.
Instructor Mei Lan''s words this time made Tang Li Xue and the others lost all of their hope.
Chapter 335: Arrive at Tang Feng City!
Chapter 335: Arrive at Tang Feng City!
Once any Beast Lord or [Rare] Grade demonic beast evolved into Spirit Beast rank, they would need to pick between two options: stay in their beast form or gain the real human form.
The Fake Spirit Beast rank was referring to the spirit beast who chose to stay in their beast form.
Because the Fake Spirit Beast rank did not have the Spirit Beast Form like the one who chose the second option, their battle prowess was significantly lower than the one who has the Spirit Beast Form.
Of course, even the Fake Spirit Beast rank certainly has much stronger battle prowess than all of thembined!
Tang Li Xue and the others really did not understand why Instructor Mei Lan still had so much confidence and even epted this emergency mission.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at Tang Li Xue and the others when she saw their worried and gloomy expressions.
"Why do you have to worry so much? Even if she eloped with a human before, it does not mean she bes our enemy, right? She is still a fox like us after all. The worst thing she is going to do to you all would only just temporarily knock out all of you for a while." Instructor Mei Lan said as she keptughing at her students.
Tang Li Xue and the others sighed in relief when they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
"But... how can weplete our mission if all of us cannot even defeat her?" Bing Yi asked Instructor Mei Lan with a confused tone.
"You all do not have to worry about how to beat her. The one who will face herter would be me." Instructor Mei Lan replied to Bing Yi without any hesitation, and her tone also really firm.
"There is no way I will lose to a foolish fox who eloped with a human." Instructor Mei Lan said while sneered mockingly.
Instructor Mei Lan''s cold sneer sent a chill onto the spine of Tang Li Xue and the others. They immediately took a few steps back in reflex.
"All right! That is it for our briefing this time! We will continue our discussion after we look at the situation there. Let''s not waste anymore of our time and make our way to Tang Feng City right now! We alreadyte for almost a week thanks to Little Xue''s business!" Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue and the others before leading them out of the Death Valley with her [Sonar] ability.
After all of them safely went out from the Death Valley, they took out their respective Wind Riding Bird from their space pouch.
They rode on the back of their Wind Riding Bird and soared on the sky together.
Instructor Mei Lan led them to fly toward the Tang Feng City for several days.
The closer they were to Tang Feng City, the more obstacles they met on their way.
It could not be helped since Tang Feng City was one of the biggest cities in the Lightwind Continent.
While Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and Bing Yi looked like a group of beautiful youngdies on their way home to Tang Feng City with only the young inexperienced bodyguard, Hei Yinghao, escorting them.
There were quite many people attracted by their beauties like some groups of idiotic bandits, reckless brain-dead young masters, perverted ve traders, and so on came to look for trouble with Instructor Mei Lan''s group.
At first, Tang Li Xue did not want to kill anyone of them and only wanted to teach them a lesson, but Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue that those annoying people would call for their reinforcement and kept oning if she let them live.
In the end, Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao decided to follow Instructor Mei Lan''s advice and in anyone who came looking for trouble with them.
Then just like what Instructor Mei Lan told them, the people who came looking for trouble with them were kept decreasing until they finally managed to reach Tang Feng City several dayster.
Under Instructor Mei Lan''s instruction, Tang Li Xue and the others brought their Wind Riding Bird tond several miles away from Tang Feng City.
All of them stored back their Wind Riding Bird into their space pouch and walked toward Tang Feng City by foot.
On their way, Instructor Mei Lan suddenly warned Tang Li Xue: "Your fox mask is too conspicuous. It will only make you look suspicious, and it would be bad if you attract the attention of city guards. They will drag you to their camp, and you will probably get interrogated by them. It would be better if you take it off now."
"Eh? Take my mask off now? But... will I attract more attention that way?" Tang Li Xue asked while putting a troubled expression.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao kept staring at Tang Li Xue''s mask with sparkling eyes. Their eyes were filled with curiosity and eagerness to see Tang Li Xue''s face.
Previously, they also wanted to know Tang Li Xue''s face so badly, but they were afraid of making Tang Li Xue sad if her face was actually scarred, disfigured, or something like that. That was why they never ask about that to Tang Li Xue.
But right now, Instructor Mei Lan herself asked Tang Li Xue to take off the mask to not make her attract a lot of attention.
So... of course, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao would not miss this chance to see Tang Li Xue''s real face to satisfy their curiosity.
However, Instructor Mei Lan took out something and gave it to Tang Li Xue while saying: "You can put on this veil to cover your face if you do not want the others to see your face."
Tang Li Xue took the veil from Instructor Mei Lan and examined it.
The veil seems to be made from special silk fabric. It was really thin like cicada''s wing and almost transparent.
Tang Li Xue really did not understand what was in Instructor Mei Lan''s mind since it would not make any difference if she wore this veil or not.
Instructor Mei Lan knew what Tang Li Xue was thinking right now, so she exined: "This veil is called Cloud Covering Veil. If you wore it to cover your face, it would be like the cloud that would make the others unable to see your face."
"Wha... So magical?! Thank you very much, Instructor Lan!" Tang Li Xue happily epted the veil and dispersed the fox mask on her face since it was made from her [Energy Maniption] divine ability.
In that instant, her stunningly beautiful face could clearly be seen by everyone there.
Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and even Instructor Mei Lan werepletely bewitched by her extremely charming appearance.
All of them were dazzled for a few moments until Tang Li Xue covered back her face with the Cloud Covering Veil.
"How do I look right now? Can any of you see my face now?" Tang Li Xue innocently asked them.
Tang Li Xue''s sudden question woke them up from their awestruck state.
Hei Yinghao dashed to Tang Li Xue and swiftly held her hands so tightly, then said to her with a very serious expression: "Little... Little Xue! Let''s marry right away! Right now! As soon as possible! I will surely make you happ..."
But Bing Yi kicked him away before he could finish his wedding proposal and said: "Get lost! Little Xue is only mine alone! Little Xue, please be with me forever! I will..."
Again, before Bing Yi could finish her words, Hei Yinghao already interrupted her by pushed her away from Tang Li Xue while saying: "Go away! What do you mean to be by with you forever?! Can even you make little cubs with Little Xue?!"
Meanwhile, Yaya puffed her cheek in annoyance when Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao started to fight over Tang Li Xue and thought: ''What do you all mean by marrying and be with you forever?! Mommy Xue always belongs to Yaya alone!''
Then Yaya started to join the fight for Tang Li Xue and shot several of her [High-Pressure Air Bullets] to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Meanwhile, Little Loki was stillzily lied down on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder. It only nced at the fight between the three of them and yawned sleepily without any care.
Tang Li Xue blinked again and again in confusion, then nced at the most reliable among them, Instructor Mei Lan, and asked: "Errr... Instructor Lan, no one can see my face anymore, right? I am afraid my look will bring us a lot more troubleter."
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled at Tang Li Xue and said: "You do not need to worry, no one can see your appearance when you put on that Cloud Covering Veil. Having an appearance that is too beautiful will definitely bring a lot of trouble for you, but it does not mean you will not have any merit by having it."
"In the legend of our Fox Race, there is a very weak fox without any powerful or destructive divine ability, but she has unmatchable beauty like you... No, perhaps she even more beautiful than you." Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue about the ancient story from Fox Race.
"It was told that with her beauty alone, she ruined many heroes and rulers from the human race. She even managed to seduce many n heads and emperors from Human Race, then brought them into conflict with each other. She brought ruin to all of those ns and empires without even fighting at all." Instructor Mei Lan concluded her story.
Instructor Mei Lan''s story even made Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi stopped fighting and dropped their jaw in awe.
Even Tang Li Xue''s expression turned weird right now after she listened to Instructor Mei Lan''s story.
''I... do not to seduce any heroes or emperors... I hope Instructor Mei Lan will not make me do that!'' Tang Li Xue sincerely prayed in her heart.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled at her students'' stunned expression and warned all of her students with a stern tone: "All right! That is enough! Stop ying around! We will enter Tang Feng City right now! Remember about all of my rules! All of it will apply once we enter Tang Feng City!"
Chapter 336: Easily Entered Tang Feng City!
Chapter 336: Easily Entered Tang Feng City!
Instructor Mei Lan led her students to approach the majestic south gate of Tang Feng City.
As the capital city of the strongest and biggest empire of Lightwind Continent, even the protection walls and the city gates of Tang Feng City were much more majestic and grander than Quanhai City.
The protection walls that surrounded Tang Feng City were not only tall but also very sturdy. It was shone with mysterious dim silvery light.
Tang Li Xue did not know where this mysterious dim silver light came from, but some rare ingredients should have been added to the protection wall to make it sturdier and tougher than any ordinary stone walls.
Tang Li Xue was not sure if she could pass through these protection walls with her [Ethereal Form] divine ability like when she passed through the protection wall of Quanhai City.
There were so many elite guards guarding on the top of the walls, but the most amazing of all was that there were Spirit Cannons mounted on the top of the protection walls every 2-4 meters away from each other.
If the previous thirty powerful giant lizards who destroyed the Lin Family were attacking here, Tang Li Xue was very sure they would be turned into a group of meat pies in a few seconds by these Spirit Cannons.
Tang Li Xue started to get nervous and restless because she felt like she was walking right into her enemy''s base right now.
Tang Li Xue followed silently behind Instructor Mei Lan with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
She watched as Instructor Mei Lan gave a pouch filled with gold coins to the grocery merchant, and said to them that she would give the grocery merchant more gold coins if the grocery merchant managed to bring them all into Tang Feng City.
This grocery merchant has all of the necessary documents anyway, and they only need to verily to those guards that Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the others were the youngdies of the rich family from their hometown who wanted to sightsee in Tang Feng City.
Instructor Mei Lan and all of her students waited patiently with the group of grocery merchants. They queued up for several hours until noon before they reached the gate and greeted the Tang Feng City''s gatekeepers.
At first, the gatekeepers grumbled andined a lot about it until Instructor Mei Lan silently shoved a pouch filled with gold coins to every gatekeeper guarding there.
These gatekeepers already took a peek at the beautiful appearance of Instructor Mei Lan and Bing Yi, so they acted like that to make things difficult for them.
They also tried to check Tang Li Xue''s face, but there was something that covered her face and made it looks strangely blurry as if a cloud of smoke or fog covered her face.
It was clear that these gatekeepers targeted Instructor Mei Lan and Bing Yi from their behavior.
If Instructor Mei Lan''s group did not give them any benefit, they would not let Instructor Mei Lan''s group pass that easily.
Even if Instructor Mei Lan''s group did not have any gold coins or money, Instructor Mei Lan''s group could still pay them with their body by spending a night with them and satisfy their lust.
All of the gatekeepers grinned happily after received the gold coins, they even warmly weed Instructor Mei Lan and her students into their Tang Feng City and even said that they would pick up an experienced guide to help Instructor Mei Lan and her students sightseeing at Tang Feng City.
Instructor Mei Lan refused their offer and told them that they already have some acquaintances in Tang Feng City, and those acquaintances could bring them around as guides.
Tang Li Xue almost fainted in shock and depression at how easy Instructor Mei Lan brought all of them into Tang Feng City.
When she remembered how many difficulties she must face in order to bring the two disciples from Alchemist and Pharmacy Association into Quanhai City before, Tang Li Xue suddenly had an urge tomit suicide with a block of tofu.
''Sigh¡ No matter in my previous life or this life, money and wealth will always keep this world go around. Money and wealth maybe could not resolve all the problems, but they can at least solve a lot of problems. It can certainly make the big problem smaller, and the small problem vanished.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in frustration.
Once Instructor Mei Lan and her students inside Tang Feng City, Instructor Mei Lan gave the grocery merchant another pouch filled with gold coins as thank you gift.
The grocery merchant happily epted it and said that they would dly help Instructor Mei Lan if she needed their help again.
Instructor Mei Lan did not hesitate to ask for their help to find any information about the recent serial murder case in Tang Feng City. She even acted terrified in front of them as if she was looking for that information because she was afraid that she would be the next target of that serial murder.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao were more afraid of Instructor Mei Lan than became the target of serial murder after they saw how realistic her act was.
Instructor Mei Lan really looked like a terrified aristocraticdy right now, and the grocery merchant easily believed her, thenforted her by saying that they would certainly look for all the information about the serial murderter.
Instructor Mei Lan humbly thanked them again and told them that they could find her in the luxurious inn at the center of Tang Feng Cityter. She also promised to pay them more gold coins if they managed to find any information about the serial murder.
After bid her farewell to the grocery merchant, Instructor Mei Lan whispered to her students while leading them to the center of Tang Feng City: "Bring out your umbre and fan. Use the fan to cover your face and use the umbre to cover yourself a bit from the light."
There were so many people near the entrance of Tang Feng City and some of them even the cultivators, so it was not really strange when Tang Li Xue and the others took out the umbre and fan from their space pouch.
When Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the others used the fan to cover the lower half of their faces while fanning themselves with it, they looked less conspicuous and more elegant now.
With the help of the umbre, the sunlight also did not hit them as much as before either, so it would be even more difficult to notice or find them among the crowd of people in Tang Feng City.
These were only some little details to cover themselves, and many other people did these unconsciously in any town or city, but it could make them avoid a lot of trouble because of their looks.
"Remember to never let go of your umbre and fan in the city! You only have these things to protect yourselves since you definitely cannot use any of your abilities or skills here!" Instructor Mei Lan warned them sternly with her [Telepathy] skill.
Nieeegghhh~!!!
"Step aside! All of you step aside!" Ady who wore a mboyant blue dress shouted out loud while rode her steed so fast in the middle of the busy street.
All the people included Instructor Mei Lan and her students swiftly ran to the side of the street, so they would not get trampled by thatdy''s steed.
Unfortunately, there was someone unlucky enough to get tripped at that timing!
It was a pregnant wife with a little child in her grasp!
"AAAAAHHHH~~!!!" The pregnant wife screamed out loud in fright while hugged her little child tightly and let her back faced the steed to protect her little child from harm.
At the crucial time when the charging steed almost trampled on the pregnant wife and her little child¡
BBBAAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
The sturdy steed flew several meters backward while thedy in mboyant blue dress fell onto the ground.
"UUUUUAAAAAAAHHHHHHH~!!! Who?! Who dares to harm this princess?! Guards! All guardse here right now! This instant!" Thedy in mboyant blue dress screamed and shouted in a spoiled manner.
Meanwhile, the helper aided the pregnant wife to stand and asked: "Are you all right? Do I need to call a doctor for you?"
The helper was ady in a fox mask. She wore a ck cloak to cover herself, and she has long silky smooth silver hair which almost touched her knee.
Who else if she was not Tang Li Xue.....''s perfect copy.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao stared at Tang Li Xue beside them silently with strange gazes after they saw the youngdy who saved the pregnant wife.
"Th¡ Thank you so much, youngdy! But you better get out of here¡ or get out of this city as soon as possible! Thatdy you just kicked is one of the princesses of Feng Empire!" The pregnant wife anxiously whispered to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and ran away from there with her little child as fast as she could.
It only took a few seconds before tens of elite guards caught up with thedy in a mboyant blue dress.
It seems they already followed closely behind her to guard her, but this princess herself ran so quickly with her steed and created some distance with her own guards, made them unable to save her in time.
"You all stupid guards! Why do you not even save me before I fall?! I do not care! You all must catch that masked woman for me! I want to torture her until she wishes that she is dead!" Thedy in mboyant blue dress shouted to all of her guards.
"Yes, Princess!" All of the guards in silver armor shouted simultaneously while surrounded Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from all sides.
Actually, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to run away at the same time as the pregnant wife, but the gatekeepers and patrolling guards already surrounded her first before these silver armored guards.
With these many guards besieged her from all directions, it was already impossible for her to escape without resistance.
Moreover, she could not use any of her divine abilities or skills here, because the consequence would be even more unimaginable if the people here knew that there were some demonic beasts in human form among them.
Tang Li Xue prefers to sacrifice her perfect copy rather than let her use any of her divine abilities or skills to fight back.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan already swiftly grabbed the real Tang Li Xue''s hand in anger and dragged her away from there.
Chapter 337: Tang Li Xues First Martial Art!
Chapter 337: Tang Li Xue''s First Martial Art!
When all of those elite guards in silver armor and the gatekeepers approached Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to apprehend her¡
"HALT~!!!" Someone shouted to stop those elite guards and gatekeepers from touching Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
That person dashed toward Tang Li Xue''s direction and immediately jumped above to avoid the crowd of people, thennded right in front of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"You are¡ Young Master Ye?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in surprise.
Yes, the man in front of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy right now was the core disciple of Immortal Sword Sect, Ye Zhen.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy met with this Ye Zhen before when she was in Quanhai City.
Previously, both of them fought together against the people of the Blood Devil Sect and managed to stop the blood barrier to save all the citizens of Quanhai City.
Currently, Ye Zhen wore his uniform of Immortal Sword Sect and still looked handsome like before.
Although he did not look as handsome as Hei Yinghao, but different from Hei Yinghao who looked masculine and manly, this Ye Zhen appeared more slender and elegant which made him look more suave than Hei Yinghao.
The reason why the elite guards and gatekeepers hesitated in making a move on Ye Zhen was that they already recognized his uniform and knew that he was the disciple from Immortal Sword Sect.
Thedy in the mboyant blue dress got angrier when she saw all of her elite guards and gatekeepers hesitated in obeying her words.
Her angry heart was burning even more fiercely by the me of jealousy when she saw there was a handsome man with amazing background protecting the girl in a fox mask (Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy).
Thedy in the mboyant blue dress became even more determined to harm and torture the girl in a fox mask right now.
"What are all of you doing?! Standing there without doing anything! Do all of you want to disobey my order?! Do you all want to get punished and fired?! Just beat up that guy for a bit and catch that girl for me! I will take all of the responsibility for it!" Thedy in the mboyant blue dress screamed in a shrill voice like a banshee.
These were the words that all of the elite guards and gatekeepers waiting for.
They did not want to disobey this pampered princess, but they also did not want to offend the people from Immortal Sword Sect.
All of them were only small and disposable characters after all. If they made the wrong move or took the wrong decision, they could easily be sacrificed.
But it was different if the pampered princess already promised to take all of the responsibility in front of these many people!
All of the elite guards and gatekeepers started to fiercely pounce toward Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Ye Zhen pulled out his silver spear from his spatial ring and used the blunt part of his silver spear to sweep all of the guards who charged toward him.
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
The blunt part of his silver spear hit right at their right cheek and knocked out those guards unconscious in an instant, then made all of them spun a few times on mid-air beforended a few meters backward.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy who stood behind Ye Zhen also got attacked by a few guards from behind.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to gracefully dodge all of their attacks like a dancing butterfly, but there were simply too many of them, and she surely could not keep only dodging all of their attacks like this.
''Sigh¡ This is too troublesome?! Wait a minute¡ why don''t I use this chance to test my new martial art I get from breaking through to Acupuncture Opening Stage with ck Tortoise Chapter of [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art]!'' The topaz blue eyes of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shone brighter when she remembered about that.
Actually, every time Tang Li Xue cultivated her [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] and breakthrough, she would get a new ancient martial art skill, so technically, Tang Li Xue could get four powerful ancient martial arts if she cultivated her [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] until she reached Nascent Soul Stage.
Back then, Tang Li Xue managed to condense the [Seed of Phoenix me] when she cultivated in Crimson Phoenix Chapter of [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] and breakthrough to Qi Condensation Stage.
Under normal circumstances, she should have been able to use the ancient martial art from Crimson Phoenix Chapter, the [Phoenix me], in her Qi Condensation Stage.
Unfortunately, that [Seed of Phoenix me] was devoured by her me of Pride, so she could no longer use the [Phoenix me] anymore, but it made her me of Pride evolved into Phoenix of Pride in return, and it had grown a lot more powerful since then.
But now, she managed to condense the [Ocean of Water] inside her Dantian when she breakthrough to Acupuncture Opening Stage with ck Tortoise Chapter of [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art]!
Thankfully, her [Ocean of Water] did not get devoured by her martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent], just like what happened previously with her [Seed of Phoenix me] and me of Pride.
On the contrary, Tang Li Xue managed to strengthen her [Ocean of Water] continuously thanks to her [Golden Winged Serpent].
The rtion between her [Golden Winged Serpent] and her [Ocean of Water] were mutual, both of them continuously got benefit from each other.
The [Golden Winged Serpent] continuously strengthened the [Ocean of Water] with its water elemental power, while the [Ocean of Water] kept providing EXP for the [Golden Winged Serpent].
For the first time, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to use the ancient martial art skill from the [Ocean of Water] right now!
The pure water elemental Qi flowed out from the [Ocean of Water] in her Dantian, then circted in her veins and meridians!
''Let''s see how good is this?! The ancient martial art of ck Tortoise¡ [Water Mirage]!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy whispered in her mind.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy dodged the attacks of four gatekeepers, the three elite guards in silver armor suddenly appeared behind her, and they stretched their hands to apprehend her.
But in that instant when they touched Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy¡
SPLAAAASSHHH~!!!
The body of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy broke apart and turned into seawater!
"What?!" All the elite guards and gatekeepers around her got really shocked and thrown into confusion.
At that time, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suddenly appeared behind the three elite guards and hit them from behind to knock them out.
"Hm¡ So this is the ability of my [Water Mirage]?! I can use it to create water clones? Not bad! Let''s see how many I can create at once!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy grinned mischievously.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used her [Water Mirage], previously she only wanted to try it, so she only used a sliver of its power, but this time she pushed it to the maximum!
Suddenly, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was split into twenty identical Tang Li Xues!
No one here could even distinguish which one was real and fake!
Even Ye Zhen got baffled by Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] right now.
He already knew that Tang Li Xue was not weak since he already fought side by side with her in Quanhai City before, but she never used this kind of martial art in front of him before.
Ye Zhenughed and shook his head in admiration, then thought: ''Young Miss Xiao is really exceptional. Not only a rare peerless beauty, but she is also an extremely talented female cultivator! Maybe I should take her to meet my master and see if my master can convince her to join our Immortal Sword Sect and take her as his new disciple.''
Ye Zhen started to ponder carefully while fighting leisurely against all of these elite guards and gatekeepers.
The two sides started to fight with each other fiercely, but no matter what those gatekeepers and elite guards did, they could no longer catch Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy anymore.
They already destroyed several water clones of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but she kept splitting every time they did that, and her number was constantly at twenty!
In fact, if Tang Li Xue got stronger, she could even make hundreds of water clones at once!
At that time, it would be difficult for anyone to defeat her unless they could find the original her and knocked her unconscious or kill her.
''This ancient martial art is crazily powerful! If I, as the perfect copy, can create twenty water clones at once, then my real self can also create twenty water clones¡ If I and my real self used it at once... Uwehehehe¡ we can create forty water clones at once!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy imagined as she easily knocked the elite guards and gatekeepers one by one.
Moreover, all of her water clones could move as fast as her in [Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
Each of Tang Li Xue''s water clones could move around so fast that she left several afterimages behind her!
It was not surprising that she could confuse all these gatekeepers and elite guards, and then knocked them easily one by one like this.
Even Ye Zhen would have a hard time fighting against Tang Li Xue even if she only used her [Water Mirage].
It only took a few minutes for Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to knock out all so many elite guards and gatekeepers.
Unfortunately for them, this ce was the home ground of the princess in a mboyant blue dress.
The number of elite guards and gatekeepers here was not only fifty or seventy, but millions!
At the moment when Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy managed to defeat the 50-70 of elite guards and gatekeepers, but the other hundreds of them already came to face them!
This time they even brought special crossbows and inscription arrows to face Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy knew that the situation was not looking good for them, and both of them started to frown deeply.
Hundreds of elite guards equipped with special crossbows and inscription arrows already surrounded them.
All of them were ready to fire their arrows toward Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy at once!
Chapter 338: Meeting Again!
Chapter 338: Meeting Again!
"That is right! Shoot! Shoot at them right now!" The princess in the mboyant blue dress happily cheered from the side.
This princess in the mboyant blue dress looked yful and naive, but her behavior was cruel and immature. It seems she got pampered too much until she could not even distinguish between right and wrong.
In this pampered princess in the mboyant blue dress, Tang Li Xue faintly saw her future self if she followed Instructor Mei Lan''s instructor and stopped caring about any humans.
She was a human too in her previous life after all.
If she could follow Instructor Mei Lan''s words and abandon her humanity that easily, did it also mean she could also abandon the Beast Race, Fox Race, and Myriad Foxes Academy too in the future?!
No¡ the worst one was that if she could even abandon even her friends and family for her own selfishness, for her own benefit, or maybe for her own safety!
When the ''family'' word came into her mind, the image of several people came shed in her head.
The image of her brother who sacrificed so many things for her¡
The image of Yaya who almost died while desperately protecting her from ck-clothed men in the second trial to enter Myriad Foxes Academy¡
The image of Little Loki who almost died in fever because it forcefully devoured the almost exploded fragment of divine treasure in Quanhai City¡
Fake Dragon¡ Instructor Mei Lan¡?Silly Fox¡ Bingbing¡ Teacher Li Wei¡ Teacher Bai Wuchen¡
Tang Li Xue really did not want to be the kind of person¡ err¡ fox who could abandon any of them in the future for whatever reason!
After pondered all of those for a while, Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in firm determination, and she did not feel any regret in saving that pregnant woman with her little child!
Even if she knew that she would face this kind of dire situation before, she would still choose to do it!
The situation right now was very different from the Lin Family after all. Since the entire Lin Family should take the responsibility for killing the children of the Lizard Family and torturing the female lizard, while this pregnant woman and her little child werepletely innocent.
At least that was what Tang Li Xue believed right in now.
Although it was notpletely right to kill the innocent children and babies of the Lin Family, but who knew if they tried to take revenge for their family after they have grown upter in the future.
There were too many stories about this that Tang Li Xue had read in her previous life, so Tang Li Xue did not really think that Instructor Mei Lan waspletely wrong in doing such a cruel thing as ying all the children and babies of the Lin Family.
"Young Miss Xiao, It seems our situation is quite bad right now. Do you feel any regret in saving that woman before?" Ye Zhen asked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a teasing tone while stood bravely in front of her.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy giggled freely as if she was released from all of her restraints and replied: "I am not regretting it at all! I will do it again even if I face the same situation again."
"But it is different with you. Young Master Ye, you have nothing to do with all of these. You can still back out from all of these things, and they would not dare to make things difficult for you at all. Actually, you do not need to worry about me. I have full confidence in getting out from here safely. So, if you are not sure, can you just please back out from all of these right now?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked Ye Zhen back with a worried tone.
The current Tang Li Xue who was in trouble right now was only her perfect copy from her [Twin Moons] divine ability. Even if the current Tang Li Xue got killedter, the real Tang Li Xue could summon her out again after she finished the cooldown of [Twin Moons] divine ability in the next nine nights.
However, it waspletely different from Ye Zhen! If he died here, he will really lose his life forever.
Of course, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could not let Ye Zhen died just like that in front of her!
But she had to use her [Energy Maniption] to create a protective wall or barrier around themter, and it would surely uncover her identity as a demonic beast in human form.
Strangely, there was no fear in Ye Zhen''s eyes, and heughed at Tang Li Xue''s reaction.
Ye Zhen felt even more fascinated by Tang Li Xue after he heard her honest reply. Not only she has a kind heart to help a helpless nobody without feeling any regret in the face of this dire situation, but she even felt worried about his safety right now, more than her own safety.
Ye Zhen said with a reassured tone and a confident smile on his face to appease Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "Young Miss Xiao, you do not have to worry about my safety. You do not need to be afraid about your own safety too. Because... our savior will be here in a moment."
"Savior? Who?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked in puzzlement.
Meanwhile, all of the elite guards were still hesitating in shooting Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, because Ye Zhen''s uniform had shown his identity as Immortal Sword Sect''s disciple.
But under the urge of the princess in the mboyant blue dress, all of the elite guards had no other choice but to obey hermand.
Just when they almost pressed the trigger to shot the inscription arrow from their crossbow to Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy¡
"Hold it!" Someone shouted from afar to stop them.
The princess in the mboyant blue dress gnashed her teeth in annoyance and anger. She turned around in the direction where that sound came from while shouted out loud: "Shut up! Who dares to stop me from¡"
But she immediately halted her shout when she realized who shouted at all of the guards and her to stop them.
Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also simultaneously looked toward where the sound came from.
Two men rode their horse and approached Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
One of the men wore the majestic robe with the ck color mixed with the golden color along with a golden crown above his head, while the other men wore a pure untainted white robe with a silver mask on his face.
Both Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue knew perfectly well the man who wore the silver mask was.
Who else if he was not Ye Zhen''s master, Elder Yang, the Honorable Elder of Immortal Sword Sect!
Tang Li Xue really had an urge to run away right now.
For some unknown reasons, she really did not want to meet with this Elder Yang again.
"Greeting to Elder Yang and Crown Prince Feng!" Ye Zhen quickly bowed politely to Elder Yang and Crown Prince Feng.
Actually, Ye Zhen was already with Elder Yang and Crown Prince Feng before, and he only came here to check themotion under Elder Yang''s order.
That was the reason why Ye Zhen was so sure that Elder Yang and Crown Prince Feng woulde toward him if she did not run back to report what happened to them after a while.
Crown Prince Feng seemed really annoyed and angry by themotion created in front of Tang Feng City right now.
He was actually assigned to apany Elder Yang to look around Tang Feng City today by his royal father, the Emperor.
What was in his royal father''s mind could easily be guessed by anyone.
Crown Prince Feng was the future emperor of the Feng Empire, and this Elder Yang was actually rumored to be the future Patriarch of Immortal Sword Sect.
Of course, his royal father, the Emperor, wanted Crown Prince Feng as his favorite son to have a good rtionship with the future Patriarch of Immortal Sword Sect.
Elder Yang still looked cold and unapproachable as usual, but there was a faint mischievous smile appeared on his face when he nced at the familiar girl in fox mask beside Ye Zhen.
"What''s going on here?!" Crown Prince Feng nced fiercely at the princess in the mboyant blue dress and all of the elite guards here, then asked with a cold and stern tone.
The princess in the mboyant blue dress and all of the elite guards were intimidated and felt terrified by Crown Prince Feng''s fierce aura. No one dared to answer his question, all of them only lowered their heads in guilt and fear.
"SPEAK!" Crown Prince Feng shouted with a forceful tone.
The captain of the elite guards finally did not dare to disobey and immediately went forward, then kneeled politely in front of the Crown Prince Feng and told everything to him.
He did not even dare to tell any lie or leave any truth behind, so he told exactly what happened from the start to finish to Crown Prince Feng.
The expression of Crown Prince Feng turned darker after he heard the truth.
He never minds it if his sister did something unreasonable like this on any other day, but today was different!
If the future Patriarch of Immortal Sword Sect, this Elder Yang, thought that all of the people from the Feng Royal Family were cruel, immature, and unreasonable like his sister, it would certainly ruin their rtionship in the future!
Who knew if this Elder Yang even thought of something like recing their Feng Royal Family with another family which more humble and easier to controlter in the future after he became the Patriarch of Immortal Sword Sect?!
"Little Xian! Come here!" Crown Prince Feng shouted angrily to his little sister.
"All¡ All right, First Big Brother!" The princess in the mboyant blue dress, Little Xian, hastily approached Crown Prince Feng.
"Apologize to Big Brother Ye and thisdy right now!" Crown Prince Feng ordered Little Xian with a stern tone.
"First Big Brother! But I am not wrong... They are the ones who..." Little Xian wanted to reject in a spoiled manner as usual, but Crown Prince Feng immediately cut her words.
"SHUT UP! Apologize to them right now or I will punish you by confining you in your room for one week!" Crown Prince Feng shouted in anger to Little Xian.
Chapter 339: Blackmail!
Chapter 339: ckmail!
The princess in the mboyant blue dress, Little Xian, nced pleadingly at his First Big Brother, Crown Prince Feng.
She clearly did not want to apologize in front of all of these citizens of Tang Feng City.
She felt that she would lose so much face (felt really humiliated) if she did it.
Normally, Crown Prince Feng would yield to Little Xian pleading, and he would probably only threw some money at the victim of her bully. But he could not do it right now, since he was apanying Elder Yang today.
Moreover, one of the bullying targets of her little sister was Elder Yang''s disciple, while the girl was the acquaintance of Elder Yang''s disciple.
Under the stern stare of Crown Prince Feng, Little Xian had no other choice but to apologize to Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"I... I am sorry... I am wrong..." Little Xian lowered her head and apologized, but she secretly red at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with the eyes filled with anger and hatred as if she was saying: ''You might win in this round, but just watch out for your backter! I will surely take my revenge sooner orter.''
With her sharp [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability, how could Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy not realize Little Xian''s re and its meaning?! But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only rolled her eyes in annoyance, but she did not mind it too much.
''I am only the perfect copy from [Twin Moons] divine ability anyway! If you want toe and find me to take your revengeter, you are wee to try it! Bwehehehe... Can you even find me if my original self did not even summon me outter?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy mocked Little Xian in her mind.
"That is all right, but please be more careful when you ride your horse in the future. All the people in the street are your own people too. It would be bad if the name of Feng Royal Family got stained because of simple things like that." Ye Zhen kindly reminded Little Xian.
Little Xian blushed and shyly replied: "I... I understand... I will be more careful in the future."
The corner mouth of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy twitched a bit as the vein popped on her forehead in anger.
''Hei, hei, hei, hei~!!! Why the hell are you treating us so differently with each other?! Little Princess, you are a sexist, aren''t you?! You must be a sexist!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined in her mind.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still felt angry and annoyed by the Little Xian attitude toward her and Ye Zhen, Elder Yang approached and greeted her.
"Long time no see, Young Miss Chou (ugly, hideous, unsightly)." Elder Yang calmly greeted Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a faint smile on his face.
The silver mask only covered the upper half of Elder Yang''s face after all, so everyone could see the faint smile on his face.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy reflexively replied in anger since her mood already quite bad right now: "Who the hell are you calling ugly?! You are the one that ugly! Your entire family is ugly!"
Elder Yang did not feel angry or irritated after he heard the rude reply from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
He only chuckled and calmly replied: "But you are the one who introduced your name as Chou Nu (Ugly Girl) before. You even said that you already have a husband named Chou Jiahuo (Ugly Guy)."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy got stunned by Elder Yang''s reply and hesitantly said while puckered her lips in vexation: "That is¡ right¡?but still¡ you must not call any girl, Ugly, right?! At least call me Young Miss Nu!"
Crown Prince Feng and Little Xian felt really surprised when they heard Elder Yang and the girl in the fox mask conversed with each other casually in front of them just like that.
Even Ye Zhen felt very shocked when he heard his apathetic cold master, Elder Yang, spoke so casually with Young Miss Xiao, so he asked them in confusion: "Elder Yang, Young Miss Xiao¡ you two¡ already know each other?"
Elder Yang raised his eyebrow when he heard Ye Zhen''s words, and he chuckled and asked while stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "Young Miss Xiao? Ah, so your nickname is Xiao this time? Ye Zhen, what full name did she said to you?"
"Eh? What? Young Miss Xiao said her full name is Xiao Xue." Ye Zhen widened his eyes in confusion and answered without thinking.
"Xiao Xue? Chou Nu? Mysterious Young Miss, I wonder just how many names do you have until now?" Elder Yangughed while asked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a teasing tone.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gulped her saliva in nervousness as the cold sweat started to pour out from her forehead in guilt.
"What?! You¡ you cannot me me for hiding my real name from you before! Just look at yourself in the mirror! Wearing a silver mask to cover your face and walking alone in the middle of the forest¡ Just from all of these, it already more than enough to make me feel suspicious at you!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said to defend herself.
Elder Yangughed out loud when he heard the words from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and replied: "Young Miss Xiao¡ Shhhh¡ it does not seem right for me¡ No, I do not like this nickname at all. I still prefer to call you Young Miss Chou, so I will keep calling you with that from now on. Young Miss Chou, do you ever look yourself in the mirror too?"
"You¡ You did not only wear a fox mask to cover your face, you even use a ck hood to cover your head and a ck cloak to cover your body! From the tip of your head to your toe, your appearance is clearly a lot more suspicious than me!" Elder Yang kept bbering nonstop.
This talkative version of Elder Yang was never even be seen by his own disciple, Ye Zhen, before.
So, the current Ye Zhen waspletely stunned. He dropped his jaw in shock and became speechless for a couple of while.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only rolled her eyes in annoyance when she heard Elder Yang bbering about her, but Elder Yang''s next words made her jumped up in the panic.
"You even dare to use my jade insignia and im that you and your friends are my envoys to enter Lin Family''s residence. Oh, I also heard from the secret intelligence of Immortal Sword Sect just recently that the Lin Family is already..." Elder Yang''s sound got softer as he approached Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy more until she could even feel Elder Yang''s warm breath on her right ear.
"AAAHHHH~!!!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shouted out loud in a panic to prevent anyone from hearing Elder Yang''s words and hastily covered Elder Yang''s mouth with her slender palm to stop him from talking.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her teeth in resentment, and she whispered back to Elder Yang''s left ear: "Listen¡ I have a mid-tier spirit stone with me. I can give it to you if you promise me to forget everything about that thing. Okay, one might be not enough for you¡ I will give you two mid-tier spirit stones! How about it?"
Previously, Tang Li Xue had a few mid-tier spirit stones with her, but she already used most of them for her breakthrough to Acupuncture Opening Stage, so she only has one or two mid-tier spirit stones left right now.
Elder Yang chuckled and replied: "Little girl, do you seriously think to bribe the honorable elder of Immortal Sword Sect with only one or two mid-tier spirit stones? Are you sure you are not joking with me?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gritted her teeth again to resist her urge to choke this Elder Yang to death, but she said to him with a nicer tone this time: "Then what do you want from me? Just so you know, my most precious possession is only these two mid-tier spirit stones. I have nothing else to give you besides of that."
"What I want, huh¡ let see¡ how about apanying me to drink tea and sight-seeing around for a few days while I am in this Tang Feng City? You can see that I feel quite bored right now. I hope you can entertain me in these few days until I forget my boredom." Elder Yang pondered for a few moments before replied to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Only that? I only need to apany you for a few days, and you will forget everything about ''that thing''?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked with a skeptical tone.
"No, not only apany¡ You must also entertain me and make me forget my boredom." Elder Yang corrected the words from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hesitated for a few moments and looked as if she was currently pondering it carefully.
But actually, her real self was currently asking for Instructor Mei Lan''s opinion right now.
A few seconds after the real Tang Li Xue heard Instructor Mei Lan''s reply, her perfect copy finally replied to Elder Yang too: "All right, no problem! I also have the n to take a look around this Tang Feng City. Doing so while entertaining you will not spend a lot of my time and effort."
"Good! Let''s go! Continue with our trip¡" Elder Yang smiled when he heard the answer from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, then he said to the stunned Ye Zhen and Crown Prince Feng.
Chapter 340: Got Noticed!
Chapter 340: Got Noticed!
Elder Yang and Crown Prince Feng rode on their own respective horse again to continue on their trip.
Ye Zhen and Little Xian were also given horses by the elite guards there, so they could follow Elder Yang and Crown Prince Feng too.
Even Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was also given a horse, so she could ride it like Ye Zhen and the others, but...
"Err... I... I cannot ride the horse. You all do not need to worry about me. I will follow you on foot." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy timidly said to Elder Yang and the others who still waited for her to ride on her horse and follow them on their trip.
In her previous life, Tang Li Xue spent all of her time in the hospital, and she was a fox in this current life, so how could she learn how to ride the horse?!
If anyone asked: ''Why she could ride the Wind Riding Bird?'', then the answer was she never actually rode on the Wind Riding Bird.
It was more like the Wind Riding Bird carried her with it.
All of Wind Riding Birds from Myriad Foxes Academy were already trained. They were not only deft but also very clever and have a sharp sense of danger.
Different from any horse that depends on the riding skill of its rider to control it, the Wind Riding Birds only need a bit of instruction from its rider.
Even something like ''fly straight to the right or left until you find a mountain'', ''keep flying at low altitude while in this valley'', or ''full speed travel to the south or west'', the Wind Riding Birds would immediately understand it and obeyed it without any need for further instruction.
Heck, the owner of the Wind Riding Bird could even sleep on the top of it after they gave their instruction to their Wind Riding Bird.
This was also the reason why Instructor Mei Lan said something like: ''The Wind Riding Bird you choose will not only be your mount, but will also be your importantpanion, so treat them well!''
The reason why Instructor Mei Lan said so was that there were so many lives of the foxes saved by their own Wind Riding Bird previously when they were on the verge of death in their mission.
Of course, what their Wind Riding Bird would do in any critical situation was dictated by their own respective nature and temperament. That was also why Instructor Mei Lan said to pick the Wind Riding Bird that suited them the most.
Because there were several different things that any Wind Riding Bird could do in the critical situation that will bring the different oue for its owner.
For example when their owner got lethal injuries in the middle of the mission... some of the timid ones would choose to hastily escape and bring their owner back to Myriad Foxes Academy, while some of the careful ones would choose to hide their owner, and it will search for some healing herbs or medicine to help their owner recover from their injuries first.
Some of the brave ones might even choose to fight to the death with their enemies to protect their owner.
In short, Wind Riding Bird could not bepared with any horse, so do not expect any foxes in human form with rich experience in riding Wind Riding Bird to be able to ride the horse skillfully too.
Little Xian sneered mockingly at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but before she could ridicule Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy for her inability to ride on the horse...
Both Ye Zhen and Elder Yang already offered their hand to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy at the same time.
While Ye Zhen and Elder Yang nced at each other strangely, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt confused so she innocently asked them: "What do you guys want to do? Holding hand with each other?"
Both Ye Zhen and Elder Yang almost fell from their horse when they heard the question from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Crown Prince Feng almostughed out loud at them, but he forcefully muffled it and covered his mouth, while Little Xian was currently madly jealous at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy. She gritted her teeth and red venomously at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Young Miss Xiao, we know you cannot ride the horse, so we offer our help to bring you touring around Tang Feng City on our horse with us." Ye Zhen smiled and exined clearly to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Oh? All right... Thank you, I will trouble you then." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied while smiled at Ye Zhen, and then she stretched to grasp Ye Zhen''s hand.
" Cough... Cough... Entertain... Cough... I am starting to get bored now." But Elder Yang''s cough and unclear words stopped Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from holding Ye Zhen''s hand.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy red at Elder Yang in anger before deciding to grasp Elder Yang''s hand.
Elder Yang pulled the smooth hand of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and let her sat in front of him.
Ye Zhen felt really disappointed in his heart, but he could not say it out loud, while Little Xian stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sharply like a dagger from behind.
Their group was finally continuing their trip in sight-seeing Tang Feng City today.
Crown Prince Feng and Elder Yang rode at the front, while Ye Zhen and Little Xian followed them from behind.
Behind Ye Zhen and Little Xian, there were three long lines of the elite guards marched up in the neat formation. They kept silently following Crown Prince Feng''s group from behind.
At the street where Crown Prince Feng''s group passed by, All of the people there bowed their backs deeply to show their respect to the royal family.
This was one of the rules in Tang Feng City, and it applied to everyone in Tang Feng City.
As someone from the modern world in her previous life, Tang Li Xue really did not like this rule. But she did not dare to say anything about it in front of Crown Prince Feng''s face.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned deeply in bad mood andined to Elder Yang: "I do not like it... You are too close. Can I just sit behind you?"
Elder Yang raised his eyebrow and calmly rejected it with a faint mischievous smile on his face: "Nope, you can''t. I never let the people I do not trust yet sit behind me."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "But I also do not trust you, so why do I need to sit in front of you?! Isn''t a gentleman with high cultivation like you supposed to concede more to a weak young girl like me?"
Elder Yangughed at the statement from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and lightly said to her: "I am sorry, but I am someone who yearns for true gender equality. I believe women and men have equal potential inside them, and they could reach the same height if they work hard."
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to ridicule him, Elder Yang immediately said again with a teasing tone while chuckled: "But if you insist, you can just turn around so we will be facing with each other face to face. Our problem will be solved with that, right?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy looked at Elder Yang strangely while dropped her jaw in shock. She became speechless for a few moments before murmured to him: "Do you always acting so shameless to the other girls like this too?"
Elder Yang got chocked by the question from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and replied softly: "No, of course not. I only behave like this with you."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sneered mockingly at Elder Yang''s words. Of course, she would never believe?Elder Yang''s nonsense.
Elder Yangughed softly when he saw the mocking sneer of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy. He instantly knew that Tang Li Xue did not believe any of his words.
Elder Yang looked fondly at the pair of mesmerizing topaz blue eyes of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and said: "You do not believe my words? Honestly, I will never treat you this well if not for your eyes. Your sky blue colored eyes are... so beautiful... It indulges me in many fond memories every time I see it. It cleansed me and helped to keep me away from insanity..."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy blushed slightly when she heard Elder Yang''s honest words. She turned away her head and did not dare to see Elder Yang''s eyes directly anymore.
Fortunately, Elder Yang did not say anything like Tang Li Xue was actually resembled histe pet or something like that. If not, Tang Li Xue would probably get so angry, and she probably could no longer hold the urge to kick him down from the horse.
The direction in which the Crown Prince Feng''s group was currently heading by chance was where Instructor Mei Lan''s group was located right now.
The real Tang Li Xue already told Instructor Mei Lan and the others, so they already knew about it.
But all of them did not think too much about it because it was impossible for them to get noticed by Crown Prince Feng''s group.
Tang Li Xue''s stunningly beautiful face (the real one) was already covered by Cloud Covering Veil, so no one could probably see through it and saw her resemnce with her perfect copy.
Unfortunately, neither Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, or anyone could know that Elder Yang also had one of the Seven Earthly Desire Spirits, the Blood of Lust, just like Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride!
The Seven Worldly Desire Spirits were able to detect each other when their rtives appeared near them
The Seven Earthly Desire Spirits were able to detect each other when their kin appeared in the radius of their detection.
In the other words, Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride and Elder Yang''s Blood of Lust could detect each other when they were close enough.
The reason why Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride could not detect Elder Yang''s Blood of Lust in the forest before was that the Blood of Lust had gotten so weak after its previous master died.
When Elder Yang rode his horse with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and passed by Instructor Mei Lan''s group who currently bowed their back deeply just so they did not get noticed by any people from Crown Prince Feng''s group.
Elder Yang frowned a bit in annoyance when he felt the Blood of Lust contained in his body became really restless and tried tomunicate with him.
The Blood of Lust did not only convey its hungry feeling to Elder Yang, but it also pointed its target to Elder Yang.
Elder Yang did not take the Blood of Lust''s message seriously. For him, the Blood of Lust was only the weapon for him to take his revenge, nothing more. He did not have any time to care about the Blood of Lust''s will, and he will never satisfy its desire to devour the river of blood like the people from the Blood Devil Sect.
But Elder Yang still subconsciously took a nce at the person who his Blood of Lust pointed to.
Elder Yang widened his eyes in an instant when he nced at the real Tang Li Xue.
To be precise, he was not looking at the real Tang Li Xue, but at the Ring Ne, she wore around her neck!
Chapter 341: Scolded Harshly!
Chapter 341: Scolded Harshly!
¡..
¡
.
Five to ten minutes before Elder Yang met with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy...
Just right after Instructor Mei Lan grabbed the real Tang Li Xue''s hand in anger and dragging her away from the ce where her perfect copy was currently fighting against the elite guards of the Little Xian with the assist of Ye Zhen.
Instructor Mei Lan kept dragging Tang Li Xue away until they entered the dark alley while Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao silently followed them from behind.
After walking a while, that dark alley actually brought all of them to the other main street of Tang Feng City.
Instructor Mei Lan finally released Tang Li Xue''s hand after they went quite far from the scene of the battle.
Instructor Mei Lan red angrily at Tang Li Xue without saying anything, but it only made Tang Li Xue felt more scared to Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue lowered her head in guilt and stuttered apologetically to Instructor Mei Lan: "Instructor Lan¡ I¡ I am really sorry¡ I understand that I am wrong, but¡ that pregnant woman and her little child are really pitiful... I just¡ I just cannot bear to see them..."
Without waiting for Tang Li Xue to finish her words, Instructor Mei Lan swiftly stretched her hand and easily grabbed Tang Li Xue''s left fox ear under her ck hood, then Instructor Mei Lan forcefully pulled it upward in aggravation!
"AAAHHHH~!!! Pain! Pain! Instructor Lan, I know that I am wrong! Please forgive me!" Tang Li Xue shouted in pain while kept apologizing to Instructor Mei Lan.
But Instructor Mei Lan still did not release Tang Li Xue''s left fox ear and even scold her harshly: "Do you really understand what are you doing?! Just from her extremely luxurious dress anyone with a proper brain could tell that she must be from the royal family! Do not mention to offend someone from the highest echelon like her, we must not even catch the attention of anyone from the low or mid echelon like the guard''s captain, rich merchant, and so on!"
"Little Xue! What you are doing just now, not only can potentially make us fail this mission, but we can also be the wanted criminal by the entire Feng Empire!"
"You already know that Feng Empire is the biggest empire in Lightwind Continent, right?! If we became their wanted criminal, they would surely put a high bounty on our head, then we would get chased around by many human cultivators!"
"If that happens, we will certainly face a lot of difficulties and dangers toplete any mission in Lightwind Continent in the future!"
"In the worst case, your deed will force our team to move away from Lightwind Continent to the other continent for a few hundred years until the case got forgotten by the time."
Instructor Mei Lan kept mentioning the dire consequence of Tang Li Xue''s deed one by one without any mercy.
In a situation like this where Tang Li Xue got scolded too harshly by Instructor Mei Lan, Hei Yinghao would usually force himself to say something to lighten Tang Li Xue''s punishment.
"But¡ Instructor Lan, the situation is not that bad, right? Little Xue is not an idiot, and I bet she knows the consequence of her action really well. That is why she only used her clone to do it rather than jumping out herself to save that pregnant woman." Hei Yinghao said to back Tang Li Xue up.
"That is right¡ There are so many people wearing a ck cloak with a hood like us in this Tang Feng City. I am really sure that no one will think that we have any connection with Little Xue''s clone at all. We are not even there to see what she is doing right now." Bing Yi also said some words to help Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head in disappointment while loosened her grip on Tang Li Xue''s left fox ear to let her go and said: "All of you still do not understand it. Sometimes, even a very tiny mistake is more than enough to bring disaster to all the foxes in the team. At that time, it would be toote for all of you to me anyone or feel any regret."
Tang Li Xue, Hei Yinghao, and Bing Yi fell silent, and they did not dare to say anything anymore to refute Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
"Remember¡" Just when Instructor Mei Lan wanted to say her piece of advice to all her students¡
Tang Li Xue suddenly let out a sound of surprise: "Eh? AH~!"
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply and asked Tang Li Xue with a dire skeptical tone: "What? Why do you look so surprised? Don''t tell me your clone is doing something even more severe like identally killing that princess of Feng Empire?!"
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes and said with reassured words: "Of course not! Do not worry, Instructor Lan. I will never dare to do anything suicidal like that! It is just that¡ my perfect copy identally meets with Elder Yang from Immortal Sword Sect."
"Elder Yang from Immortal Sword Sect? It seems he was sent here by Immortal Sword Sect to investigate the serial murder too just like us. Someone important like him will never appear alone in Tang Feng City to find the murderer. Some expert cultivators at Core Formation Stage or even Nascent Soul Stage might protect him from behind. It looks like our mission is harder than I have predicted before¡" Instructor Mei Lan frowned and murmured her guess.
"This bast*rd¡ how dare he call me ugly?!" Tang Li Xue''s expression turned dark as she gnashed her teeth and whispered softly to herself in annoyance.
"Eh? What did you say? Who called you ugly?" Instructor Mei Lan heard it perfectly even though Tang Li Xue only whispered it softly, but she did not quite understand the situation so she asked Tang Li Xue to ascertain it.
"Ah? Uhhh¡ No, I mean¡ Damn it! This bast*rd! He even brought up how I previously use his jade insignia and im to be his envoy right now?! If I did not stop him in time, he even wants to bring up about the destruction of Lin Family in front of my face!" Tang Li Xue said as she gritted her teeth in anger.
Instructor Mei Lan pondered carefully for a while and said to Tang Li Xue: "Try to ask what he wants from you."
"Uh¡ Alright, wait a minute...¡.. Okay, he already said it¡" Tang Li Xue instantly replied with a weird expression.
"Oh? What he said to you?" Instructor Mei Lan raised her eyebrow and asked again.
Even Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao stared at Tang Li Xue with eyes filled with curiosity.
"Err¡ He wants me to apany him to drink tea and sight-seeing around Tang Feng City for a few days. He also said I can entertain him in these few days to make him forget his boredom. What should I do, Instructor Lan? Should I really ept his offer or not?" Tang Li Xue replied with a reluctant tone.
Instructor Mei Lan: "¡.."
Bing Yi: "¡.."
Hei Yinghao: "¡.."
All of them fell speechless for a few moments, and their expressions also turned weird.
"ept it then! Why not?! We can even probably get some crucial information about the serial murder from their side if your clone stays with them. Besides, you will not face any danger even if something untoward happens since it is only your clone." Instructor Mei Lan gave her consent to Tang Li Xue.
"Okay!" Tang Li Xue nodded and let her perfect copy agreed on Elder Yang''s request.
"How is it?" Instructor Mei Lan asked again with a curious tone and serious expression.
"No problem¡ He seems quite happy with it." Tang Li Xue replied.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao sighed in relief after they heard Tang Li Xue''s reply.
"Good job! Not bad, Little Xue. Although you are not quite bright, but your luck is really strong as always. However, you should always remember to never act so rashly like before! When you are carrying out the mission outside of Myriad Foxes Academy, you responsible for not only your own life but also for the lives of your entire team." Instructor Mei Lan praised Tang Li Xue a bit, but she also did not forget to remind Tang Li Xue once more.
Tang Li Xue nodded with a solemn expression to Instructor Mei Lan, signified that she understood it clearly.
"All right! Then your next task is to use your clone to secretly find some clues or information about serial murder from their side. Be really careful and do not let anyone there know what you are doing! I, Bingbing, and Silly Fox will look around Tang Feng City to find any information from the local people here." Instructor Mei Lan started handing out the task to all of them.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao listened carefully to Instructor Mei Lan''s instruction.
This was their first A-Grade mission after all, so the three of them were actually quite nervous right now.
Only the foxes with the white jade badges like Instructor Mei Lan could take the A-Grade mission from Mission Hall, while the three of them only have silver badges right now.
Honestly, this emergency A-Grade mission was outssed three of them by three levels, so they felt a bit inferior and afraid of making a mistake that will ruin this mission.
Instructor Mei Lan looked at the tense expression of her students and immediately knew that the three of them were quite nervous right now.
Usually, the tense people¡ or rather¡ the tense foxes like them tended to make a fatal mistake in the crucial situationter if they continued being like this.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled at her students to calm their nerves and said: "But first, let''s find the luxurious inn for us to stay for a few days. We justpleted a B-Grade mission, so all of you must be really tired right now. We will take a bath and eat the local delicacies in this Tang Feng City as our dinner, then sleep tight for tonight. We will talk about what we are going to do tomorrow."
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao felt relief after they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words this time. The three of them started to chat happily with each other while followed Instructor Mei Lan from behind.
"Uh¡ Instructor Lan, Elder Yang''s group wille from the opposite direction from us in a few moments. Should we avoid or hide from them?" Tang Li Xue told Instructor Mei Lan and asked.
Instructor Mei Lan could already see Elder Yang''s group from afar, and she replied to Tang Li Xue: "It will make us looks more suspicious if we run or hide from them right now. Let''s just follow the others and bow our back towards them!"
Chapter 342: Dispute Over the Ring Necklace!
Chapter 342: Dispute Over the Ring Ne!
"Eh? Must we really bow our back to them?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a strange tone.
Tang Li Xue always thought that Beast Race was looking down on Human Race and would never bow down to them, but it seems she was wrong.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes andzily replied with her [Telepathy] skill: "Why not? It is not like we let them brand the master-servant contract into our souls. Everything is all right as long as it does not bring any harm to us."
"Even if they tell us to kneel and kowtow in front of them?" Tang Li Xue asked again with an even weirder expression.
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xue as if she was looking at an idiot and replied again with her [Telepathy] skill: "So what?! Kneel? Aren''t we foxes always walking with our four limbs in our true form?! What is the difference between that and kneeling?! Kowtow? Aren''t we foxes always sleeping in that position when we are in our true form?! Little Xue, we might be in the human form right now, but it does not mean we will need to follow their every logic and way of thinking."
"All of you must always remember that we are Fox Race disguising in human form. We can learn all the customs, ethics, logic, ways of thinking, and so on from humans. But all of those are only to make us ''act'' more naturally as a human, so we can carry out our mission a lot easier in the human world! It is not to make us be a human!" Instructor Mei Lan warned all of her students sternly with her [Telepathy] skill.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao nodded their heads in understanding, while Tang Li Xue was stunned silly for a few moments before nodded her head too.
Now she finally understood the reason for it after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
For Beast Race, their knowledge about humans was only their weapon to infiltrate human society and gain more ess to information and resources from Human Race.
These ''kneel'' and ''kowtow'' were the perfect example for that.
If any humans were ordered to ''kneel'' and ''kowtow'', they would think of it as humiliation, or it could also be their way to show their submission to their superior.
For any proud or arrogant humans, they would probably choose death rather than? ''kneel'' and ''kowtow'' in front of others.
For the Beast Race, ''kneel'' and ''kowtow'' were simply their usual act of walking and sleeping. They would not feel humiliated even if they were ''kneel'' and ''kowtow'' in front of all the humans.
Just from this, we can see that Beast Race and Human Race werepletely different in so many ways, especially their logic and way of thinking. That was why they could not see each other eye to eye.
While Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue conversed with each other, Elder Yang''s group almost reached the main street in front of them.
All the people there already started to bow their backs toward Elder Yang''s group to show their respect to Crown Prince Feng.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao also immediately followed the other people around them and bowed their backs toward Elder Yang''s group.
Only Tang Li Xue felt really hesitant to do so.
''The heck?! Even my perfect copy did not need to bow so submissively to them before! Then why the hell do I need to bow toward them?!''? Tang Li Xue puckered her pinkish lips in displeasure andined in her heart.
At that time, the Phoenix of Pride inside Tang Li Xue''s Dantian almost jumped out again just like when she saw the old man with a ck mask in Quanhai City before.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned solemn in that instant. She quickly gritted her teeth to suppress her Phoenix of Pride.
It would be really bad if her Phoenix of Pride suddenly jumped out in the middle of Tang Feng City!
''Damn it! Little guy, what the hell is wrong with you now?! You always sleep so deeply when I am fighting against any enemies, but you always suddenly acting up in the really dangerous timing! Just calm down for now, okay?! We can talk about what you wantter!'' Tang Li Xue warned the Phoenix of Pride.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes when she saw that Tang Li Xue was still unmoving. She quickly grabbed Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder and pushed it down to make Tang Li Xue bow.
Clink¡ Clink¡ Clink¡
Because she suddenly bowed, the ring ne she wore on her neck, which was usually hidden under her clothes came out on its own.
At this timing, Elder Yang subconsciously took a nce toward the real Tang Li Xue right now.
The cultivator with a higher cultivation level did not only have greater strength but all of their senses will also get a lot sharper.
Although the distance between Elder Yang and the real Tang Li Xue was quite far, but he could still see Tang Li Xue''s ring ne so clearly from there.
Elder Yang widened his eyes in an instant when he saw the very familiar-looking ring hung on the real Tang Li Xue''s neck.
Elder Yang swiftly jumped down from his horse without saying anything.
His sudden action almost made Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy who was sitting in front of him fell from the horse.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] in that instant to flip on the mid-air andnded gracefully on the ground.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy red Elder Yang in fury, but before she could scold him, Elder Yang''s figure already shed toward the real Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan gripped Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder tighter and quickly pulled her back.
When Elder Yang appeared in front of the real Tang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan already stood in front of the real Tang Li Xue like a mother hen protecting her chick.
Even if Elder Yang had any intention of harming the real Tang Li Xue right now, he would probably not be able to even touch the tip of her hair anymore since she was already under Instructor Mei Lan''s protection right now.
Elder Yang did not do anything after that. He only red at Instructor Mei Lan in annoyance for a few moments before trying to look at the ring ne on Tang Li Xue''s neck.
Unfortunately, Elder Yang could not see Tang Li Xue or the ring ne on her neck anymore since Instructor Mei Lan already stood right in front of Tang Li Xue to cover her.
"Your Excellency, is there anything you need from us? My disciple is only an ignorant young child, so if she identally does something to offend you before, then allow me, as her master, to apologize to you on her stead." Instructor Mei Lan politely said to Elder Yang while greeted him with the fist palm salute.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily chased after Elder Yang from behind.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to exin that Instructor Mei Lan and her real self were her travelingpanions, but she shut her mouth and fell silent after she received the stern warning nce from Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy really did not understand why Instructor Mei Lan did not let her admit that they werepanions in front of Elder Yang.
But Instructor Mei Lan was actually being careful on Elder Yang''s motive on approaching them so suddenly.
Unless Instructor Mei Lan found Elder Yang''s true motive on suddenly approaching them, she would not let Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy acknowledged them as herpanions.
But Instructor Mei Lan was actually being careful on Elder Yang''s motive on approaching them so suddenly.
Unless Instructor Mei Lan found Elder Yang''s true motive on suddenly approaching them, she would not let Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy acknowledged them as herpanions.
Because they would have more insurance if they stay separated into two sides like this.
Even if Instructor Mei Lan''s side got caughtter by Elder Yang''s side, then Tang Li Xue could still swap ce with her perfect copy to escape and ask for help from Myriad Foxes Academy.
Currently, Instructor Mei Lan looked so beautiful and gentle as usual. Any male who saw her would usually have a good impression on her or even became fond of her in an instant.
But it did not seem to affect Elder Yang at all. He spoke to Instructor Mei Lan with a cold and distant tone while saluted back to Instructor Mei Lan: "Elder Yang of Immortal Sword Sect greets Young Miss. Your student did not make any mistake to me. I am really sorry for startling you and your students just now."
"It is just the ring ne on your student''s neck feels really familiar to me. Can I ask permission to see it for a moment?" Elder Yang politely asked Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned a bit and felt quite hesitant. She was not sure if the ring ne on Tang Li Xue''s neck was this Elder Yang''s real objective or he might only deliberately make trouble with their group for some unknown reasons.
"Little Xue, where did you get your ring ne from? Is it only an ordinary ring ne or the precious treasure?" Instructor Mei Lan secretly asked the real Tang Li Xue behind her with [Telepathy] skill.
Chapter 343: Greatly Disappointed!
Chapter 343: Greatly Disappointed!
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she tried to remember where she got her ring ne from.
Not only she could not remember anything about her ring ne, but she even got assaulted by the stinging headache instead.
"I¡ I cannot remember where I got this ring ne, but it is an incredibly precious treasure." Tang Li Xue whispered back to Instructor Mei Lan with her [Telepathy] skill.
Tang Li Xue still could not use her [Telepathy] skill tomunicate with the person she wanted as skillful as Instructor Mei Lan, but she could still barely do it right now because Instructor Mei Lan stood so close to her.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply as well when she heard Tang Li Xue called her ring ne an incredible precious treasure.
Instructor Mei Lan knew really well about humans'' bottomless greediness.
Just from this, she could already predict that this Elder Yang would never give up so easily in getting a hold of Tang Li Xue''s ring ne.
Just like how Instructor Mei Lan had predicted, Elder Yang did not give up, and he became even more irritated when he saw Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue''s hesitation, and he decided to say: "I am really sorry for my impoliteness. How about if I buy that ring ne from you? You can just mention any price you want to me, and I will definitely pay it to you."
Instructor Mei Lan silently nced at Tang Li Xue to ask for her opinion.
If Instructor Mei Lan was allowed to choose, she would rather choose to sell the ring ne to Elder Yang than facing a lot of trouble sooner orter because of it.
But the ring ne was Tang Li Xue''s possession, so she must ask for Tang Li Xue''s consent first before deciding it.
Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head to express her disagreement.
Tang Li Xue''s ring ne has three wondrous effects.
The first effect was Illusion Immunity. With this effect, the owner of this ring ne would never need to fear any illusion!
Just from this first effect, it was more than enough to make Tang Li Xue''s ne priceless.
Not to mention the second effect of this ring ne, [Luck +30]!
Tang Li Xue already browsed through the treasures sold in Myriad Foxes Academy''s auction house before, and the treasures that increasing Luck stat was really rare.
Of course, there were some that were sold in Myriad Foxes Academy''s auction house, but mostly only increased the luck by +1, +2, or +3.
The treasure with Luck +5 stat was the highest Tang Li Xue ever seen in Myriad Foxes Academy''s auction house, and it was sold at an astronomical price, while this ring ne increased the luck by 30! The effect was six times stronger than that treasure!
Moreover, Luck was a really peculiar stat.
Having 10 treasures with the [+1 Luck] effect did not mean the owner would have [+10 Luck].
On the contrary, it would only make it counterproductive and decrease the owner''s luck instead.
For the treasure with the effect to increase the luck stat, having one with the highest luck stat effect like Tang Li Xue''s ring ne was the best option.
Tang Li Xue''s ring ne even has the third unknown effect. Tang Li Xue''s [All Knowing Eyes (basic)] could not see this third unknown effect, but Tang Li Xue herself dared to bet that this third effect was surely much greater than its first and second effect!
In short, Tang Lu Xue would surely never sell this precious ring ne to anyone!
ording to Tang Li Xue, this Elder Yang of Immortal Sword Sect as a genius from the human race should have extensive knowledge about precious treasures.
This Elder Yang must have already known the effect of her ring ne in one nce and thought that Tang Li Xue still did not know about the true wondrous effects of this ring ne. Thus he decided to fool her and buy the ring ne from her at a cheap price!
In Tang Li Xue''s imagination, Elder Yang in front of her smirked slyly at her right now.
Tang Lu Xue''s fury erupted when she thought that, and the vein of anger popped on her head.
She fearlessly took one step closer to Elder Yang and said with a cold chilling tone: "I am sorry, but this ring ne is not for sale."
Elder Yang put on a troubled expression when she stared at the ring on Tang Li Xue''s neck more closely.
If he was only 50% sure before, then right now he was 90% sure that the ring on Tang Li Xue''s neck was the ring given by his mother to him before she disappeared, but then he decided to give it to his Xiao Bai before they escaped from Asura Demon Sect together with the giant lizard.
Tang Li Xue sneered coldly when she saw Elder Yang''s troubled expression and said in her heart with the tone filled with disgust: ''Acting! Continue to acting! But I will never give or sell this ring ne to you!''
But inside her heart, Tang Li Xue felt greatly disappointed in this Elder Yang.
She already saw the greediness from Immortal Sword Sect''s elders before when Little Loki hatched from its egg. Those elders even chased after her and almost killed her before.
Of course, Tang Li Xue still did not know that those greedy elders had already been digested by her Little Loki and probably would never know anything about it.
Tang Li Xue thought this Elder Yang was different from those greedy elders of the Immortal Sword Sect...
She thought he was not a bad person...
She thought he was a kind-hearted and honest human because he helped her without touching or asking for any reward from her before.
And... his roasted meat was also quite delicious...
But it seems everything was only her delusion.
''Maybe... Instructor Lan is right... Maybe... there really aren''t any good humans... Each one of them must have an ulterior motive in approaching me. I should not trust any human so easily like this Elder Yang in the future... Sigh, I miss you so much, big brother.'' Tang Li Xue thought in her heart. Her big brother might be the only human she could ever trust while sighing in longing to meet him.
Elder Yang did not give up that easily and continued to offer to Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan: "Young Miss seems to misunderstand my meaning. I will not only pay you with money or treasures, but I can also grant any of your requests. If you want to be the aristocrat family in Feng Empire or even the elder of Immortal Sword Sect, I can give that status to you."
This time, not only all the people around here stunned silly by Elder Yang''s words, even Crown Prince Feng and Little Xian dropped their jaw in shock.
Because not even the Emperor of Feng Empire could throw this promise so easily.
The Emperor needed agreement from many sides to crowned the new aristocrat family, especially from Immortal Sword Sect''s side.
But this Elder Yang could easily promise them that!
It made even the Crown Prince Feng wonder, just how big the authority of this Elder Yang in the Immortal Sword Sect right now?!
However, Elder Yang did not finish his offer to Tang Li Xue yet.
He threw an even tempting offer that could not be refused by anyone to her: "I can even grant it if you want to be the new sovereign and grant you the title of Empress. Of course, I cannot crown you as the Empress of this Feng Empire, but it is not a big problem if you choose the smaller Empire. But you do not need to worry. I can even promise to support your empireter until it bes on par with Feng Empire in the future. How about it?"
Of course, it was not that easy. It might take fifty to one hundred years or maybe even longer for her small empire to reach Feng Empire level, but the promise from the most terrifying genius of Lightwind Continent and as the next head of Immortal Sword Sect was more than enough to assure anyone at this point.
Tang Li Xue was very surprised. She almost slipped out and fell when she heard Elder Yang''s tempting offer.
Honestly, she was a bit tempted to take it. In fact, she would probably immediately ept it if she was reincarnated as a human and not a fox...
Even Crown Prince Feng and Little Xian almost fainted in shock when they heard Elder Yang''s promise just now.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan fell into deep thinking and carefully concluded: ''His offer maybe sounds so tempting, but there are a lot of traps knotted with it. If we ept it, then it is the same as we enter the same side as him. We will no longer have any other choice than obey his every wordter. What is the difference between that and be his puppet?!''
''Tsk, what a smart and calctive guy?! As I always expect, this guy is really dangerous. It is better to get rid of him earlier if we have a chance in the future.'' Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes glinted coldly as the thick murderous intent shed in the deepest part of her eyes.
No one here could detect it including Elder Yang himself, but Tang Li Xue with her sharp [Extrasensory Perception] could faintly detect it.
Her slender figure shuddered slightly in fright and the thought to ept Elder Yang''s offer vanished from her mind in that instant.
Tang Li Xue replied to Elder Yang again with a cold tone: "Elder Yang, I am really sorry, but this ring ne is irreceable to me, so I really cannot sell it to you."
Chapter 344: Tang Li Xues Anger!
Chapter 344: Tang Li Xue''s Anger!
Crown Prince Feng sighed in relief silently when he heard Tang Li Xue''s refusion.
Crown Prince Feng really did not understand what was in this Elder Yang''s mind to make that kind of promise to this unknown girl.
Did Elder Yang not know how many resources would be needed to create another Empire equal to Feng Empire?!
Also, if Elder Yang really wanted that ring ne so badly, Crown Prince Feng could easily send some of his people to negotiate with this unknown girlter.
In the worst case, if this unknown girl still refused to give up her ring ne, they could easily make her mysteriously vanished from this Tang Feng City and take the ring ne from her.
This Tang Feng City was the capital city of the Feng Empire after all. The territory where their authority was the strongest, and they could easily do whatever they want here!
Of course, Crown Prince Feng would never do something despicable in front of so many citizens, and he also did not dare to interrupt Elder Yang''s discussion with that unknown girl.
Crown Prince Feng decided to stay silent for now, but he already secretly decided in his heart to take that ring ne from Tang Li Xueter even if he needs to use coercion.
Meanwhile, Elder Yang frowned deeply in frustration and pondered for a few moments.
Actually, Elder Yang did not even know any effect of that ring ne like what Tang Li Xue used him.
He only remembered his mother only said that ring will ward any bad luck and bring him more fortune if he always kept it with him all the time.
That was the reason why Elder Yang or Xiao Hei gave it to his Xiao Bai before.
He wanted that ring to protect his Xiao Bai from any bad luck and harm.
Unfortunately, his wish was not granted at that time¡ That ring failed to protect his Xiao Bai, and his Xiao Bai was killed by his own uncle, Mo Chonglin''s hands!
For Elder Yang, the ring ne was an important memento that contained the memories of his mother and his Xiao Bai, so he really wanted to get a hold of it as soon as possible.
After thinking for a while, Elder Yang decided to intimidate Tang Li Xue a little and said: "Young Miss, I do not know where you got that ring ne, but that ring ne is actually mine before. That ring ne is actually a very important memento for me¡"
"I know it is my fault because I lost it before, and I truly thank Young Miss a lot for finding it, but I hope you can return that ring ne to me right now. I promise I will grant any of your wishes as long as it is within my capability." Elder Yang softened his words and offered to grant Tang Li Xue''s wishes again in exchange for her ring ne.
Tang Li Xue sneered at Elder Yang with disgust and mocking feelings mixed up in it, then she said to Elder Yang again with her previous cold chilling tone: "You said you are called Elder Yang, so I guess your surname should be Yang, right?"
Just from Tang Li Xue''s unfriendly tone, Elder Yang already knew that Tang Li Xue would notply with his request so easily.
Elder Yang frowned in displeasure, but he still politely answered Tang Li Xue''s question: "That is right. My surname is Yang. Is there something wrong with it?"
"What a big liar?! Then why the name of this ring is [Huang Family Heirloom Ring]?! It is clear from its name that this ring belongs to Huang Family, not Yang Family!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a cold but righteous tone to Elder Yang.
"Is this the true behavior of the honorable elder of Immortal Sword Sect?! You see something you like on the other person, and then you will im it to be yours?! I really doubt that you even have any interest in fulfilling any of your promisester, even after I give this ring ne to you!" Tang Li Xue shouted louder to let her words be heard by everyone there to embarrass Elder Yang.
Tang Li Xue did not hold back at all, and her words were really rude this time. Just like a sharp dagger, her every word was sharp and merciless aimed to shred Elder Yang''s reputation in front of all of these citizens.
It could not be helped since Tang Li Xue could not hold her temper anymore. She felt her mind and heart were already burning with extreme fury toward this Elder Yang.
While Elder Yang widened his eyes in shock and disbelief and murmured: "You¡ how¡ could¡ How could you know my mother''s family surname?! Is there really any name carved on that ring? Impossible! There should be nothing carved on that ring! Then, how could you¡ This is impossible¡"
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes in exasperation and thought: ''What a bast*rd?! He still dares to say that Huang is his mother''s family surname!''
''Doesn''t it mean if I said I make a mistake and change the ring''s name right now, he can still also change it into his nephew''s family surname, aunt''s family surname, cousin''s family surname, and so on?!''
''Bravo! What a clever big liar?! As I expect from the genius human! Even your way of bullshitting is on another level from the other humans!''
Tang Li Xue suddenly felt that she could no longer converse with this shameless bast*rd Elder Yang anymore.
Every time she said something to argue with this Elder Yang, he could perfectly turn it over and made it as if she was the one in wrong.
Her fury already reached the breaking point that she almost went insane because of it.
Both Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi wanted to step in and helped Tang Li Xue out, but they immediately canceled their intention after they got a stern warning re from Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan actually also had a headache when she thought about how to resolve this situation peacefully.
From their conversation, both Tang Li Xue and Elder Yang refused to give up, and both of them imed that the ring ne was theirs from the start.
Instructor Mei Lan also noticed from the way of Crown Prince Feng and that little princess stared at Tang Li Xue that both of them were never nning to settle this problem in a peaceful way.
Tang Li Xue might be thinking that Elder Yang was unreasonable and scummy, but in Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes that Elder Yang was actually a quite honest and sincere person.
Anyone with power and authority like the Elders of Immortal Sword Sect or Crown Prince Feng usually resorted to all underhanded methods to get what they wanted with minimum cost or even without any cost at all, especially when they faced someone with an unclear background like them.
But someone with a high position like Elder Yang even bothered to negotiate with them and even promised to grant their wishes in exchange for Tang Li Xue''s ring ne.? Those all were already enough to show that he was a good and sincere person.
''Sigh¡ This is really my blunder. If I know both of them are so hard-headed, I would not allow Little Xue to speak directly to this Elder Yang.''? Instructor Mei Lan thought as she sighed in regret.
However, the one who was having the biggest headache right now was not Instructor Mei Lan nor Tang Li Xue, but Elder Yang himself!
''How could this be?! This should be impossible! Only myself, my mother herself, andstly, my father knows about my mother''s real surname! Not even my grandfather or Mo Chonglin knew my mother''s real surname! Then how could this girl know my mother''s real surname?!'' Elder Yang bit his lips in anxiety.
''Is she guessing it randomly? Impossible! There are more than hundreds of thousands of surnames out there, how could she guess it correctly right at this timing! And¡ she also sounds so sure about it too!'' Elder Yang immediately denied this possibility.
''Wait¡ Wait a minute¡ Let''s calm down first and think about it really carefully from another perspective¡'' Elder Yang took a deep breath to calm down himself, and he started to think deeply once again by himself for a few moments.
''What if the ring on this girl''s neck is not really the ring I gave to Xiao Bai before?''
''What if this girl''s ring and my mother''s ring are actually a pair of identical rings of Huang Family?!''
''The possibility of this is quite big! But¡ doesn''t it mean that this girl is actually the rtive from my mother''s family side?! She might be even my cousin or my nephew from my mother''s family side!''
The more Elder Yang thought about it, the more he was sure that his deduction was most likely the real truth.
After concluded about that, Elder Yang suddenly felt really guilty toward this young girl who might be his cousin or nephew.
Of course, Elder Yang would never conclude that his deduction was 100% correct without checking it first, so he decided to ask Tang Li Xue a few questions with the intention to probe her background right now: "Young Miss, I am really sorry for my audacity. You are saying that your ring ne''s name is [Huang Family Heirloom Ring]. Does it mean Young Miss surname is Huang?"
Tang Li Xue''s patience finally snapped when she heard Elder Yang''s probing question. She felt that Elder Yang actually mocked her for possessing the ring from Huang Family, although she was not from Huang Family.
In short, Tang Li Xue thought that Elder Yang was actually mocking her for stealing from other people, so he was not wrong from trying to take or steal the ring ne from her too.
"Shut up! I really regret saving the life of scum like you before! I should just let you die in Quanhai City!" Tang Li Xue said as she gnashed her teeth in great anger.
Tang Li Xue even threw a powerful kick toward Elder Yang''s stomach out of anger.
But because of the difference between their heights, Tang Li Xue''s powerful kick was actually aimed toward Elder Yang''s crotch right now!
Chapter 345: Chaotic Situation!
Chapter 345: Chaotic Situation!
Elder Yang really did not expect Tang Li Xue to suddenly attack him without any reason like this.
However, Elder Yang was the Core Formation Stage Expert cultivator capable of battling the opponents with several levels higher than him.
It was hard to tell who will win even if Elder Yang fought seriously against Tang Li Xue in her [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya.
As for Tang Li Xue''s Phoenix of Pride, Elder Yang already has the Blood of Lust topletely counter it.
In short, Elder Yang has more than seventy percent chance of winning against Tang Li Xue if they fought with the intention of killing each other.
Thus, it was almost impossible for the current Tang Li Xue without entering [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya tond a clear blow on Elder Yang.
Elder Yang''s figure turned into a sh as he swiftly jumped backward to dodge Tang Li Xue''s kick, but¡
BANG~!!!
His body actually collided hard with someone who stood behind him, and he flew forward instead right at this moment!
"Upppsss~ I am really sorry¡" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said while secretly sneered mockingly at Elder Yang.
Elder Yang did not have any time to get angry at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy or move away to dodge anymore!
Meanwhile, the kick from Tang Li Xue that already lost her patience was quite powerful.
She probably put about eighty percent of her strength in her kick this time!
Although her powerful kick was far from enough to kill Elder Yang in one attack but if she managed tond it on Elder Yang''s crotch, it would be more than enough to cripple his manly part!
At the crucial moment when Tang Li Xue''s powerful kick almost hit Elder Yang''s crotch¡
[Blood of Lust]''s first ability¡ [Blood Shield]!
Elder Yang controlled the power of his [Blood of Lust] carefully while hastily waved his hand to block Tang Li Xue''s kick.
Elder Yang''s blood sipped out from his skin and created the crimson-colored shield right in front of him!
Just when Elder Yang used his [Blood of Lust], the [Phoenix of Pride] in Tang Li Xue''s body opened its zing deep blue eyes!
The extremely hot deep blue me burst out from Tang Li Xue''s kick as it crashed hard onto Elder Yang''s [Blood Shield]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
An explosion happened as two Tang Li Xue''s deep blue zing kick struck Elder Yang''s [Blood Shield].
Elder Yang''s [Blood Shield] was filled with cracks, but Tang Li Xue herself bounced a few meters away.
She spun her body in the air and easilynded on the ground, but her feet still leave a long deep trail on the ground before she could stop herself from retreating.
Actually, Elder Yang already showed Tang Li Xue some mercy just now because he did not want to hurt Tang Li Xue.
Imagine if Elder Yang did not only create a in [Blood Shield], but a [Blood Shield] filled with many sharp spikes?!
Tang Li Xue''s feet would probably already pierced by some of those many sharp spikes right now.
Although, that kind of little wound was nothing for Tang Li Xue because her [High-Speed Regeneration] skill could heal it in only a few seconds.
Actually, Tang Li Xue was usually quite passive and, she would never attack the other first without any right reason.
But her emotion was quite unstable and especially explosive right now because the raging emotion from her [Phoenix of Pride] when it managed to detect the [Blood of Lust] in Elder Yang''s body affected her feeling too.
All the normal citizens started shouting and running away from there in a panic. The situation quickly turned really chaotic when all the panicked people there ran around like headless chickens.
Ye Zhen wanted to sprint toward his master, Elder Yang''s side, to help him if needed, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suddenly blocked his way before he could do that.
Ye Zhen became confused since he did not understand why Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did that.
When Ye Zhen stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and wanted to ask why she blocked him¡
"B*tch! How dare you attack Honorable Elder Yang in the middle of our city?!" Little Xian screamed in anger at Tang Li Xue.
"Guards! Arrest her right now!" Crown Prince Feng also shouted and all of the elite guards behind him immediately charged forward to capture Tang Li Xue.
Of course, both Crown Prince Feng and Little Xian would never dare to face Tang Li Xue by themselves since they already saw how powerful Tang Li Xue was when she kicked Elder Yang''s [Blood Shield].
Both Crown Prince Feng and Little Xian would probably die in one kick if Tang Li Xue attacked them with the same amount of strength as before.
Meanwhile, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao nced at each other with a solemn expression, and they dashed forward in that instant to help Tang Li Xue.
The deep blue me of pride already wrapped Tang Li Xue''s slender figure, and she was ready to attack Elder Yang once again!
But Instructor Mei Lan immediately shouted to stop Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao from attacking anyone: "Halt!"
"Stop!" Elder Yang also yelled at the same time as Instructor Mei Lan to stop all of the guards from detaining Tang Li Xue.
At that moment after Instructor Mei Lan and Elder Yang shouted to stop, all the people there included all of the normal citizens and elite guards nearby, did not dare to move around so carelessly.
The situation was very tense that it made all the people there feel choked. They did not even dare to breathe loudly right now.
Even Instructor Mei Lan also felt really nervous right now.
When the situation turned chaotic just now, her [Sonar] ability managed to detect several powerful auras emitting from high-level cultivators.
''It seems my previous guess is not wrong¡ This Elder Yang is really secretly protected by several very strong cultivators from Immortal Sword Sect! His shout just now is not only to stop all these guards but also to stop those protectors from making a move to us!'' Instructor Mei Lan thought in her mind.
''It is really a close call¡ If I make a reckless move just now to kill this Elder Yang, we would probably not be able to leave this city alive anymore right now.'' Instructor Mei Lan sighed in relief as cold sweat almost flown out from her forehead.
In fact, the Immortal Sword Sect already send some elders to this Tang Feng City to investigate the serial murder a few days ago, but they failed to find any clues, and some of them even went missing without leaving any trace.
That was the reason why Immortal Sword Sect''s Patriarch decided to send a really smart person like Elder Yang to investigate it.
Of course, Immortal Sword Sect''s Patriarch would never let Elder Yang have an ident, so he also sent several most powerful elders to protect him.
Elder Yang himself already reached the peak of the Mid-Rank Core Formation Stage, but he was more than capable to fight on toe against High-Rank Core Formation Stage.
So, the cultivation of each elder sent by Immortal Sword Sect''s Patriarch to protect Elder Yang must be higher and stronger than even High-Rank Core Formation Stage!
"Honorable Elder Yang, I deeply apologize for my student''s impudence. My student is still a little girl, so she is very impatient and hot-headed. It seems I failed to teach her about manners. I hope Elder Yang will not take her mistake to heart and punish her too heavily." Instructor Mei Lan said as she humbly lowered her head to apologize to Elder Yang.
Actually, Elder Yang really wanted to retaliate against Tang Li Xue so badly for attacking him so viciously!
How could he just forgive someone who nearly crippled his manly part with such a powerful kick?!
If he failed to defend against her attack before, his manly part would probably be roasted by her deep blue me to nothingness by now!
Although, Elder Yang was very angry right now, but he was still so clear-headed to think.
If the girl in front of him right now was really his rtive from his mother''s family, then surely he could not recklessly arrest or punish her.
"Young teacher, please raise your head. This is not the mistake of you or your student at all. You all do not need to worry. It is only a small misunderstanding between us. I will hold your student ountable for that." Elder Yang said with a gentler tone this time.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently and nodded to Elder Yang, then called Tang Li Xue with a stern pissed tone: "Little Xue! Come here!"
Tang Li Xue reluctantly approached Instructor Mei Lan while lowered her head in guilt.
She did not feel wrong about arguing with Elder Yang before at all, but she admitted it in her heart that attacking Elder Yang so suddenly and viciously was her big mistake.
They were still in the middle of their enemy''s territory after all. Attacking Elder Yang here was apletely unwise choice.
Her reckless act almost threw Instructor Mei Lan and the other into the middle of an irreversible dangerous situation!
"Kneel and apologize to Elder Yang right now!" Instructor Mei Lan ordered Tang Li Xue with a stern cold voice.
Elder Yang felt ufortable when he heard that and quickly said: "Uh, Young Teacher¡ you do not need to do this. I really do not mind it anymore. Actually, it could be said what happened before is my mistake since I suddenly asked to buy your student''s ring ne. It was natural for her to get angry at me because her ring ne must be quite important for her."
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head to reject Elder Yang''s kindness and said: "No! Even though she feels angry or offended, she should not attack Honourable Elder Yang so viciously like that! If her attack really hurt Honourable Elder Yang previously, even if she pays it with her life right now, it will not be enough to atone for her sin!"
Chapter 346: End of Dispute!
Chapter 346: End of Dispute!
Tang Li Xue bit her lips lightly in reluctance, but she still decided to follow Instructor Mei Lan''s words and bent her knees to kneel toward Elder Yang.
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan had said before, kneeling or kowtowing was nothing important to beast race.
However, Human Race took it as an important gesture to show their repentance, submission, or resignation.
Instructor Mei Lan thought it was better to take a step back at this point and show their sincerity to apologize by ordering Tang Li Xue to do that.
But before Tang Li Xue could kneel, Elder Yang already stepped forward and grabbed her arm to stop her from kneeling to him.
"You can stand up now. There is really no need for you to do this. This is only a misunderstanding. Can we just forget everything that happened before and start over from the beginning?" Elder Yang smiled while said to Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue nced at Elder Yang with confusion in her eyes: "Eh?!"
Instructor Mei Lan also asked Elder Yang in puzzlement: "Honorable Elder Yang, what do you mean by that?"
Elder Yang chuckled as he gave fist palm salute to Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue while said: "Nice to meet you, young beautifuldies. My name is Yang Zhiyun, but everyone usually calls me Elder Yang of Immortal Sword Sect. May I know your name too?"
Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue were stunned for a while, then they giggled at Elder Yang when they realized Elder Yang''s intention.
Elder Yang wanted to forget all of the previous displeased incidents and started from the beginning again as if they only meet right now and began to introduce themselves.
"My name is Lan. My student usually called me, Instructor Lan. I am only a rogue cultivator that likes to travel to all ces." Instructor Mei Lan saluted back to Elder Yang and introduced herself.
After that, Elder Yang and Instructor Mei Lan fell silent to wait for Tang Li Xue to introduce herself, but he only stood silently beside Instructor Mei Lan without saying anything since she felt that she already introduced herself twice to Elder Yang.
Tang Li Xue only realized that the one who did that was her perfect copy previously after Instructor Mei Lan pinched her waist from behind and ring at her.
"I¡ My name is Little Xue, and I¡ am one of Instructor Lan''s students. I am also a rogue cultivator and always traveling around with Instructor Lan." Tang Li Xue half-heartedly introduced herself to Elder Yang.
"Little Bing¡ Instructor Lan''s student and a rogue cultivator too." Bing Yi introduced herself with short words.
"I am Big Hei! Instructor Lan''s student, a rogue cultivator, and Little Xue''s future husband! Remember my name well, if you dare to approach or bother my future wife again, I will surely will¡" Hei Yinghao said with menacing tone to Elder Yang, but before he could finish his words, Instructor Mei Lan already pped his head hard from behind to stop him from talking.
Instructor Mei Lan humbly apologized to Elder Yang again with a gentle smile on her face, but Elder Yang quickly said that he did not mind it at all.
On the contrary, he said that he really liked Hei Yinghao''s straightforward personality and generously praised Hei Yinghao for his courage.
Meanwhile, Ye Zhen felt confused because Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also introduced herself as Xiao Xue to him before when they met for the first time in Quanhai City. (Little Xue = Xiao Xue)
Ye Zhen approached Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and whispered to her: "Young Miss Xiao, is that girl your acquaintance? Her name is identical with yours!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes at Ye Zhen and red at him for a few moments before repliedzily: "It is only coincidental. Is that really so strange? This world is so big, and Xiao Xue is a general name. There must be many people named Xiao Xue other than me."
Ye Zhen pondered for a while and felt that the words from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy made sense.
"You are right. I almost thought that she is your twin sister since she has an almost identical voice to you." Ye Zhen whispered to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy again.
The real Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy almost slipped and fell down in surprise when they heard Ye Zhen''s words.
But out of the people here, Crown Prince Feng and Little Xian were the only people that were still very pissed and gloomy.
Little Xian was a pampered princess, and she already got used to doing whatever she wanted before, so she could not understand why someone with a high-position like Elder Feng must act courteously to several nobodies like Instructor Mei Lan and Tang? Li Xue.
Little Xian really wanted to order all of the elite guards to arrest Instructor Mei Lan and all of her students, then executed them all in front of the citizens for their impudence.
Unfortunately, she could not contradict Elder Yang''s will, so she could not do anything for now.
Crown Prince Feng actually felt much worse than Little Xian.
All of these elite guards here should listen to him, but all of them seemed to obey Elder Yang''s words more because they immediately froze when Elder Yang shouted ''Halt!'' before.
As the first person who ordered all of these elite guards, it actually put Crown Prince Feng in an awkward position when his own squad of elite guards listened more to the outsider''s order like Elder Yang.
Although Crown Prince Feng knew the reason why all of these elite guards obeyed Elder Yang must be because his royal father, the Emperor, ordered them to do so, but still¡ it made him feel so embarrassing!
Moreover, it happened in front of all of these citizens of Tang Feng City. It truly made him as the Crown Prince of Feng Empire lost so much face! (It made him feel very embarrassed in front of all these people.)
But just like Little Xian, Crown Prince Feng could not contradict Elder Yang at all since not even his royal father, the emperor, dared to do so¡ then he has no other choice than swallow all of his displeasure and anger.
Even though Crown Prince Feng did not dare to get angry or have any Crown Prince Feng to Elder Yang, but it did not mean that he also did not dare to touch these rogue cultivator''sdies.
Crown Prince Feng secretly red venomously at Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the others from behind Elder Yang.
He especially red at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with greed.
Instructor Mei Lan with her sharp alertness and bright mind along with Tang Li Xue with her sharp [Extrasensory Perception] immediately noticed Crown Prince Feng''s bad intention from his re, but they still acted naturally as if they did not notice it at all.
Elder Yang invited Instructor Mei Lan and her students to sightseeing the scene in Tang Feng City together with his group, and Instructor Mei Lan decided to ept Elder Yang''s invitation after pondered it carefully for a moment.
Instructor Mei Lan could calcte that they must be facing a lot of trouble from Crown Prince Feng if she decided to go separate from Elder Yang now.
For her and all of her students to stay safe longer in Tang Feng City and couldplete their mission without facing much trouble, she must approach Elder Yang and gained protection from him.
Instructor Mei Lan did not know the reason for Elder Yang''s sudden change of attitude toward them or his intention for approaching them, but she could guess that everything should be rted to the ring ne on Tang Li Xue''s neck.
Elder Yang conversed with Instructor Mei Lan for thirty minutes or so while looking around the scene in Tang Feng City.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao only followed them silently from behind with Little Xian and Crown Prince Feng, while Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy walked together with Ye Zhen behind all of them.
Ye Zhen tried to strike some conversation many times with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but she only replied with ''uh'', ''ah'', ''okay'', or ''alright''.
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan had guessed, Elder Yang started to ask about Tang Li Xue''s background or origin after some time.
Although, Elder Yang asked really carefully while inserting some light questions about hobbies, tea, or something, but how could someone with a sharp and bright mind like Instructor Mei Lan did not realize it.
''He is¡ trying to figure out Little Xue''s background? Hehehe¡ So Little Xue''s ring ne really holds great meaning for him. All right, I can use this fact to exploit him instead.'' Instructor Mei Lan sneered coldly in her heart.
Instructor Mei Lan started to answer all of Elder Yang''s question vaguely that it made Elder Yang more frustrated since he could not get any crucial information about Tang Li Xue''s real identity from Instructor Mei Lan''s mouth.
Since Elder Yang still could not ascertain Tang Li Xue''s real identity, so of course, Elder Yang could not let them go just like that.
At the end of their sightseeing, Elder Yang decided to invite them to stay in the Imperial Pce of Feng Empire.
He said that the building where he lived inside Imperial Pce right now was really huge, so it was not a problem for all of them to stay there.
This was what Instructor Mei Lan actually wants!
But of course, she did not immediately ept it just like that. She still pretended to feel really hesitant and even asked for some time to discuss it with all of her students to make it more natural.
After five minutes or so, Instructor Mei Lan and all of her students finally decided to ept Elder Yang''s offer and followed him to enter the Imperial Pce of Feng Empire together.
Chapter 347: Entering Imperial Palace!
Chapter 347: Entering Imperial Pce!
The sky already turned dark when Elder Yang''s group and Instructor Mei Lan''s group reached the Imperial Pce of Feng Empire at the north of Tang Feng City.
The Imperial Pce of Feng Empire was very majestic and luxurious, very befitting as the Imperial Pce of the strongest empire in Lightwind Continent.
Unfortunately, it was still quiteckingpared with the Foxes Home, Lightwind Continent branch of Myriad Foxes Academy.
It was understandable since Myriad Foxes Academy was build using massive formations arranged by many of Fox Race''s Inscriptionist Masters before.
That was the reason why Myriad Foxes Academy looked not only far more luxurious and majestic than this Imperial Pce of Feng Empire but also looked much more abstruse and unfathomable with countlessplicated dimension arrays and protective formations contained at every corner of Myriad Foxes Academy.
Elder Yang brought Instructor Mei Lan and her students to his personal pce inside Imperial Pce named Cherry Blossom Spring Pce.
It was located in a quiet secluded part of Imperial Pce, but the scenery of many cherry blossoms here was really breathtakingly beautiful.
Emperor of Feng Empire purposely chose this ce as the lodging ce of all honorable guests from Immortal Sword Sect.
After bringing Instructor Mei Lan and her students to chose the courtyard they liked in Cherry Blossom Spring Pce, Elder Yang invited Instructor Mei Lan and her students to attend the night banquet, but Instructor Mei Lan immediately refused it on the grounds of being tired because they just arrived in Tang Feng City early this morning.
Elder Yang also tried to coax Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to attend the night banquet with him.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rejected his invitation by saying that she felt very sleepy and she wanted to go sleep right away now.
Elder Yang felt really disappointed by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Instructor Mei Lan''s refusal, but he still decided to attend the night banquet with Crown Prince Feng, Little Xian, and Ye Zhen.
When Elder Yang and the other left, Instructor Mei Lan signaled to her three students to follow her and all of them entered Instructor Mei Lan''s room to discuss their next move.
Tang Li Xue followed Instructor Mei Lan to enter Instructor Mei Lan''s room with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao, but she told her perfect copy to act as if she did not know them and go back to her own room.
After all of them entered the room, Instructor Mei Lan took out the ck Prohibition Pearl from her space pouch and used it to prevent anyone from spying or eavesdropping on their conversation.
The ck Prohibition Pearl spun silently on mid-air at the center of the room, and its dim crimson light covered the entire room in an instant.
Instructor Mei Lan took a seat on her bed and crossed her long slender legs while putting on a stern expression.
Then said to Tang Li Xue while kept staring sharply at her: "Tell me everything you know about that ring ne. And I really mean EVERYTHING without leaving any single thing behind."
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi were starting to feel sorry for Tang Li Xue right now.
It seemed Tang Li Xue would get a lot of harsh scold from Instructor Mei Lan for the entire night.
Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation and put on a sorry expression, but she actually activated her [Swap] skill in secret to exchange her position with her perfect copy.
Since they shared the same mind, so of course, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy knew what her real self wanted her to do in that instant.
''What an irresponsible jerk?! Why the hell do you want me to get scolded for something I did not even do?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her teeth in anger at her real self.
''Hey, hey, hey! We are one and the same! How can you curse yourself like that?!'' The real Tang Li Xue thought in displeasure.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and her real self started to argue with each other inside their mind.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan''s expression turned darker when she saw the face of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and said to her with a cold chilling voice: "What are you doing here? Where is the original Little Xue?! Call her toe here right now!"
"Eh?! What the.....?! How could Instructor Lan realize it?! Oh, crap!!!" Tang Li Xue felt confused at first, but she immediately pped her forehead in regret after she remembered that she and her perfect copy wore a different mask right now.
Tang Li Xue''s real self was currently wearing Cloud Covering Veil, while her perfect copy was wearing the usual fox mask.
Although Tang Li Xue really felt satisfied with Cloud Covering Veil''s ability topletely cover her face until no one could even see the color of her eyes before, but it was quite inconvenient at a time like this when Tang Li Xue needed her perfect copy to rece her.
That was right... Not even Elder Yang could see through Tang Li Xue''s Cloud Covering Veil and saw the color of her topaz blue eyes. All the people could only see her face really vaguely since it was covered by a white cloud or mist.
If Elder Yang had seen Tang Li Xue''s eyes colorbined with the ring ne in her possession, he would probably already suspect Tang Li Xue''s identity as his Xiao Bai.
Elder Yang might even suspect that Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy have a close connection with each other since they have the same eyes color and voice.
Because of her deed, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy got scolded even more fiercely by Instructor Mei Lan for an hour or so, while Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were forced to wait until Instructor Mei Lan finished her scold session.
After getting scold until her ears felt burning, Tang Li Xue started to tell Instructor Mei Lan everything she knew about her ring ne.
Of course, Tang Li Xue could only tell everything about her ring ne from the description she saw with her Basic [All Knowing Eyes].
---------------------
[Huang Family Heirloom Ring]
[Description: The treasure of Huang Family''s Head that was passed down from generation to generation.]
[Effect 1: Illusion Immunity (The wearer can feel it when they fall under the illusion effect and they can break out from it anytime they want)]
[Effect 2: Luck +30]
[Effect 3: ???]
---------------------
"The second effect of that ring is not bad, but its first effect is especially godlike. Only Supreme Treasure with more than a hundred arrays could have an Immunity effect. Unfortunately, we still do not know anything about its third effect right now. So, I cannot say its true worth of that ring for sure." Instructor Mei Lan said when she finally recognized Tang Li Xue''s ring ne as something worth keeping.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
"But what happened today is still your mistake! If you tell me about your ring ne from the very start, then I can give you a lot of advice, and the earlier blunder will not happen." Instructor Mei Lan still scolded Tang Li Xue about it.
"For example, I can suggest you give it to Sissy Wei, so he can take a look and analyze the hidden inscription in that ring. Not only he can help you to camouge its appearance, but he can also even help you to identify the third effect of your ring." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue again.
"Even if by any chance, Sissy Wei is too busy to help you... I can still at least offer you something to hide it from everyone''s eyes like your Cloud Covering Veil." Instructor Mei Lan spoke again, and each of her words stabbed deep into Tang Li Xue''s heart like a sharp dagger made her more and more guilty than before.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled in satisfaction after she saw Tang Li Xue''s face already covered with guilt and regret.
But Instructor Mei Lan''s expression immediately turned serious as she said to all of her students: "All right! Before we discuss our next move and divide the task we must do, I will tell you all first about the threat that we might faceter."
The expression of Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao turned really serious in an instant when they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
"Our first threat is, of course,es from the culprit of serial murder. Even though I said that the culprit of serial murder is probably the fox from our race, Zuo Hongzhuang, but that was only based on the fox fur found at the crime scene, and that still has not been proven to be 100% true just yet." Instructor Mei Lan exined patiently to Tang Li Xue and the other.
"Even if the culprit of serial murder is really Zuo Hongzhuang, but there is still no guarantee that she will not hurt or even kill uster. Because we might know her identity as a fox, but she probably does not know our identity as foxes too! The chance of friendly fire will between us is actually quite high, so all of you must be really careful." Instructor Mei Lan warned all of her students clearly.
Instructor Mei Lan wanted all of her students to never let their guards down even if their foes wereing from their own race, and she might spare their lives, but only if the culprit knew their identity as her fellow fox race beforehand.
"However, the biggest threat that we might faceter is noting from Zuo Hongzhuan, but from someone else..." Instructor Mei Lan muttered as she frowned deeply.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao nced toward each other in confusion and asked back Instructor Mei Lan in unison: "Then who?"
Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes glinted coldly as she replied: "The Crown Prince of Feng Empire that we meet earlier."
Chapter 348: Unexpected Turn of Events!
Chapter 348: Unexpected Turn of Events!
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao were taken aback when Instructor Mei Lan mentioned Crown Prince Feng was their biggest threat for them right now.
"Why? I mean... I can feel his hostility and greed when that Crown Prince Feng stared at me before, but I still really do not get it why." Tang Li Xue asked while frowned and pursed her pink lips cutely.
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xue in amazement and said: "So, you can even feel that now? Not bad! It seems you have really started to grow up. Although, your growth is still far from enough, so you better work harder from now on to make up for it."
Tang Li Xue blushed a bit when she got praised by Instructor Mei Lan. She nodded to Instructor Mei Lan and said: "I will give my best effort to work harder."
Even though Instructor Mei Lan said so to motivate Tang Li Xue, but she was actually quite impressed by the speed of Tang Li Xue''s progress.
Tang Li Xue had not even entered Myriad Foxes Academy for one year after all, but her growth was surely the most conspicuous amongst her peer.
"That Crown Prince Feng is a really tricky person and a very hard person to deal with. He is still young, smart, patient, knows how to stay low profile, always looks humble and refined in front of others. But he is actually an ambitious and greedy person." Instructor Mei Lan told all of her students about her deduction of Crown Prince Feng''s true nature.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched a bit in shock when she heard Instructor Me Lan exined about Crown Prince Feng and muttered in her heart: ''We... only see Crown Prince Feng once today, right?! He did not even do anything to draw anyone''s attention at all today, right? Then how the hell Instructor Lan can conclude so many things about Crown Prince Feng''s character? Sigh... Instructor Lan is really a monster!''
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xue and said: "If I am not wrong, Crown Prince Feng''s target should be you, Little Xue, so you must be really careful from now on."
"Eh? Why?! The one I kicked today is not even him." Tang Li Xue felt shocked, and she asked Instructor Mei Lan with a disbelief tone.
Instructor Mei Lan cleared her throat and began to exin Crown Prince Feng''s motive for targeting Tang Li Xue one by one: "Just like I said before, he is a greedy and ambitious person. He probably will target you sooner orter because he managed to find many valuable things on you."
"First, he noticed your deep blue me as the high-ranking me. He may even have some methods to forcefully extract it out from you and re-refine it to make your me belongs to him."
"Second, he also noticed your littlepanion, Yaya. She may hide in your hood before, but Crown Prince Feng managed to saw her for a moment when you bounced backward after kicking Elder Yang''s blood shield."
"He probably wants to tame your littlepanion after killing you. Even if she could not be tamed, Crown Prince Feng could still use her as the main ingredient to concoct a pill called Wind Taming Pill. If Crown Prince Feng consumed that pill, he can get a tenth wind elemental power of yourpanion."
Instructor Mei Lan wanted to continue her exnation, but the sleepy Yaya peeked out from Tang Li Xue''s hood when she heard her name was called, but she immediately raged out after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
"Ya~?! Yayaya!!!" Yaya babbled in anger. Even her face turned pink because of her intense fury, but she looked much cuter instead of menacing.
Tang Li Xue patted Yaya''s tiny head for a few moments to calm Yaya down.
Meanwhile, Little Loki stillzily asleep undisturbed on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder as always. It looked really did not care at all about the Crown Prince this or the Serial Killer that.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at Yaya''s cuteness, but she quickly returned to her solemn expression and continue her exnation.
"Third, he also wants to get your ring ne to please Elder Yang. See? He could get three birds in one stone if she managed to catch you. So, why not?" Instructor Mei Lan chuckled as she nced yfully at Tang Li Xue.
But Instructor Mei Lan actually did not feel nervous at all, since they already managed to get under Elder Yang''s protection for now.
At least it will make Crown Prince Feng did not dare to target them openly. He can only do it secretly behind Elder Yang''s back.
Moreover, Crown Prince Feng did not even have that many powerful cultivators under him.
Completely different from Elder Yang which has so many powerful cultivators from the Immortal Sword Sect that kept protecting him secretly from behind.
With her [Ethereal Form], Tang Li Xue could probably escape or hide from the pursuit of Crown Prince Feng''s men quite easily.
"Th... then... Instructor Lan, what should I do now? Wait a minute... Aren''t we still Elder Yang''s guests right now? Doesn''t it mean he would never dare to touch us as long as Elder Yang still with us?" Tang Li Xue felt nervous at first, but her topaz blue eyes quickly brightened when she remembered that Elder Yang was still on their side, at least for now.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes at Tang Li Xue''s statement andzily replied: "You are really too naive. Do you really n to stick with Elder Yang all the time? Do you forget about the serial murder? Crown Prince Feng can easily use that as his excuse. He can secretly catch you when you are alone, take all of your possessions, and dump your dead body anywhere, then said that you are just another victim of the Serial Killer."
Tang Li Xue grimaced in annoyance and asked Instructor Mei Lan again: "Then, what should I do, Instructor Lan? Should I just hide here, inside Elder Yang''s pce, for now?"
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled softly and just when she wanted to divide the tasks to her three students, she finally realized that Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao was already overslept on their seat.
Instructor Mei Lan kicked the two of them in anger until they fell from their chairs.
"Enemies attack?! You cowards, how dare you attacked me when I am still sleeping?!" Hei Yinghao quickly stood up and shouted in anger.
"What?! Really?! Where are the enemies?!" Even Bing Yi believed Hei Yinghao''s speech and swiftly increased her vignce to the maximum.
Only after a few moments they finally realized that Instructor Mei Lan was the one who kicked them until they fell from their seats.
"What? You two want to beat me up because I wake you up from your sweet dream?!" Instructor Mei Lan raised her eyebrow and asked in a leisure tone, but the pressure emitted out from her body was really terrifying.
"I... I am sorry, Instructor Lan." Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao lowered their head and apologized to Instructor Mei Lan in unison.
"You two really think..." Instructor Mei Lan wanted to scold Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao harshly for ten minutes or so, but she halted her words when she heard the drizzling sounding from outside their room.
Instructor Mei Lan suddenly walked toward the door and opened it to look at the rain that already started pouring down.
RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡
The sound of thunder started rumbling from the distance as the lightning shed brightly on the sky.
"What an ominous day... It seems something bad might happen again tonight." Instructor Mei Lan murmured as she frowned deeply.
Hei Yinghao wanted tough out loud after he heard Instructor Mei Lan''s poetic words, but he quickly muffled it because he did not want to get scolded more by Instructor Mei Lan.
Bing Yi did notugh at Instructor Mei Lan, but she muttered softly to Instructor Mei Lan: "It is only heavy rain. Our Little Xue can easily make heavy rain anytime she wants with her ability."
Instructor Mei Lan smiled while shook her head in her students'' naivete.
"Every elemental have their own advantage, so all of you better not looking down on it. Just like this thunderstorm... This weather is actually created from thebination of water, wind, and lightning elementals." Instructor Mei Lan started to exin to her three students.
"Under this thunderstorm, any kind of detection-type ability cannot work well. Even my [Sonar] ability will be greatly restricted by this thunderstorm. While anyone with stealth-type ability can ambush their opponents much easier in this kind of weather, so all of you must be really careful when you are facing this kind of weather in the wilderness." Instructor Mei Lan warned her three students with a stern tone.
After listened to Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation, Tang Li Xue tried to extending her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability to sense everything outside the room, but her [Extrasensory Perception] immediately became fuzzy under the thunderstorm.
Tang Li Xue understood in an instant from that. The thunderstorm in Immortal World and the thunderstorm in her previous world were different.
In her previous world, there was no spiritual energy there, so the people there have much weaker bodies than in this Immortal World, but they created the technology to make up for that.
On the contrary to her previous world, there was really abundant spiritual energy here, and it made all the people and beasts here can cultivate. They could be unlimitedly stronger until they reached God-level.
Not only that, even the elemental such as Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, and Lightning could gain consciousness and be the spirit, then cultivate just like the other living being!
But the natural disasters in this Immortal World were also much fiercer and dangerous than her previous world. Maybe it was also affected by the abundant spiritual energy and became much more terrifying too.
"For your safety, all of you will sleep here tonight. I know that all of you are already tired today. You all can sleep now." Instructor Mei Lan said to all of her students.
"Eh? What about our task for tomorrow?" Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise and asked.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned and thought for a while before replied: "We will think about it tomorrow. Go sleep now¡ Starting from tomorrow, we will probably be very busy for a few days, so all of you better use this precious time to get some proper sleep. You can sleep on my bed, I will sleep on the sofa."
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao nodded to Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi jumped happily onto the bed to sleep.
Hei Yinghao quickly followed them from behind to sleep beside Tang Li Xue, but he got kicked by Bing Yi and Tang Li Xue.
In the end, Hei Yinghao could only sit in the corner of the room and sleep on the floor there with a wronged pitiful expression.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, Yaya, and Little Loki to fell asleep sofortably on the bed.
Hei Yinghao felt really disappointed and wronged, but he also fell asleep in only a few minutes.
Instructor Mei Lan also closed her eyes on the sofa, but she did not actually sleep since she needs to guard her students'' safety tonight.
¡..

RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡
It was already midnight and almost everyone already fell asleep at this time.
The heavy rain poured down heavier and heavier as the time passed.
The thunder kept rumbling out loud, while lightning kept shing non-stop in the sky.
In a certain room of the Imperial Pce, a person with a ck cloak was holding a human head while the body was on the ground.
The human head was actually the Crown Prince Feng!
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan had predicted, tonight''s incident would certainly be the night where the peace of the entire Tang Feng City got shattered.
Chapter 349: The Night of Bloodbath!
Chapter 349: The Night of Bloodbath!
The night banquet thrown by the Emperor of Feng Empire to wee Elder Yang and the other elders of Immortal Sword Sect was truly splendid.
The night banquet was attended by the prime minister, princesses, princes, and almost all important officials of the Feng Empire.
All of them were hurried to greet Elder Yang and impatiently wanted to forge some connection with him.
Those people''s enthusiasm almost overwhelmed Elder Yang.
Unfortunately, the night banquet was forced to end up earlier because of the sudden thunderstorm tonight.
All the people that attended the night banquet returned to their room earlier, including Crown Prince Feng.
Actually, all of Feng Empire''s officials stayed overnight in the Imperial pce because they could note back to their home under the fierce thunderstorm.
But many of those important officials decided to drink wine with the other officials until morning, so the situation in the Imperial Pce tonight was really merry tonight.
Many important officials were actually invited Elder Fang and Crown Prince Feng to join them, but both of them rejected the invitation.
Elder Fang would investigate the serial murder very early tomorrow, so he wanted to get enough sleep tonight.
Meanwhile, Crown Prince Feng needed to n something with his subordinates, so he also decided to return earlier to his room.
Crown Prince Feng secretly gathered all of his subordinate leaders and started the meeting between them.
Fifteen minutes or so before Crown Prince Feng was killed...
"This subordinate greets Crown Prince!" All of the Crown Prince''s subordinate leaders kneeled politely and gave fist palm salute toward the Crown Prince Feng.
Crown Prince Feng smiled at them and said: "Stand up! You all do not need to act so formally. Let''s sit first. I need to discuss something important with you all."
"Thank you, Crown Prince!" All of the subordinate leaders said in unison and stood up, then all of them sat on the seat that Crown Prince already prepared for them.
Crown Prince Feng''s expression turned serious and said: "I called all of you here because I have something for you to do."
All of the subordinate leaders were taken aback by Crown Prince Feng''s words, and they immediately replied: "Crown Prince, please do not hesitate to say it. We will definitely do it for you!"
"I want all of you to send your most trusted and capable subordinates to catch someone for me, but she is under Elder Yang''s protection for now." Crown Prince Feng told them his true intention with a solemn expression.
"This¡" All of the subordinate leaders began to nce at each other in uneasiness.
It could not be helped if they hesitated or even afraid of the consequence of this order.
All the other people tried very hard to please or approach Elder Yang, but the order from Crown Prince Feng right now would certainly make them offend Elder Yang instead.
Crown Prince Feng chuckled at their hesitated expression and said: "You all do not need to worry. I will never let you do something to ruin yourself. Actually, today¡"
Crown Prince Feng proceeded to tell all of the subordinate leaders about what happened today between Instructor Mei Lan and the real Tang Li Xue.
All of the subordinate leaders finally understood the intention of Crown Prince Feng and sighed in relief.
They would certainly refuse Crown Prince Feng''smand if he ordered them to catch Elder Yang''s rtive or another elder of Immortal Sword Sect.
But after hearing that their target was only someone Elder Yang met in the middle of the street today, they finally felt relieved.
"If we can get that ring ne from that girl and give it to Elder Yangter, he will certainly owe us for that. But you all must remember to not kill her immediately. Bring her to me first, so I can interrogate her about where she found that ring ne." Crown Prince Feng specified his order in detail to all of the subordinate leaders.
Of course, Crown Prince Feng only told them half of the truth.
The reason he wanted them to catch Tang Li Xue and bring her to him was not only for the ring ne but also to extract the high-ranking me spirit from her body and took the Wind Elemental Spirit from her.
"Oh right, she seems to have a Wind Elemental Spirit with her, so you must be really careful, so she does not escape from your grasp. You must also catch and bring that Wind Elemental Spirit to me." Crown Prince Feng told to them again.
"Crown Prince, you do not need to worry about it. We will definitely send our best people andpleted this mission for you." One of the leaders immediately replied while the other leaders nodded to agree.
"Good! I am counting on you for this, so do not disappoint me." Crown Prince Feng smiled and nodded in satisfaction.
Crown Prince Feng began to tell them about Tang Li Xue''s prowess when she was facing Elder Yang today, and he also told them about Instructor Mei Lan and the other two of her students.
All the people in the room including Crown Prince Feng began to discuss the most proficient way to immobilize Instructor Mei Lan''s group and caught Tang Li Xue.
But suddenly... all themps in Crown Prince Feng''s room went out in an instant.
"Protect the Crown Prince!" All of the subordinate leaders shouted in unison.
These leaders were the veteran in the art of war. They already faced this kind of situation so many times before.
They moved so swiftly and unsheathed their weapon. They dashed to surround Crown Prince Feng to protect him from any harm.
But there was nothing that happened after that.
Inside the dark and quiet room, only the drizzling sound of heavy rain and rumbling of thunder from outside could be heard.
RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The deafening sound of thunder only made the people in the room felt even more nervous.
Crown Prince Feng''s forehead was already drenched in a cold sweat.
He vigntly looked around him, but he could not see anything at all in this darkness.
Crown Prince Feng gulped his saliva to calm himself down, but all of a sudden¡
PUUUUFFF~!!!
"Die killer~!!!" One of the leaders shouted in anger and stabbed the other leader from behind!
SLAAASSSHHH~!!!
"Damn traitor~!!! How dare you?!" The other leader screamed out loud in anger and beheaded that leader.
In that instant, all the leaders in the room started attacking and killing each other by themselves.
CLANK~!!! CLANK~!!! CLANK~!!!
Even Crown Prince Feng did not understand what has happened in front of his eyes.
"STOP~!!! All of you¡ STOP RIGHT NOW~!!!" Crown Prince Feng shouted as loud as he could in a panic to stop them, but all the leaders acted as if they went insane and could no longer hear his words.
Crown Prince Feng did not even dare to approach those leaders that were fighting so fiercely with bloodshot eyes without any regard for their own lives as if they were possessed by something.
From ten to seven¡
From seven to four¡
From four to two¡
The brave leaders who already fought in so many deadly battles fall one by one in this room.
Their authority might be lower than generals since generals have their own armies, but these leaders hold great authority over imperial guards that protect the Imperial Pce.
All of them have a bright future ahead of them, but unfortunately for them, they were fated to meet their ends here tonight.
Their blood and organs sshed everywhere, painted the room with the eerie crimson color.
It only took a few minutes for those brave leaders to kill each other, only leaving onest person standing.
Crown Prince Feng was already scared out of his wits.
His face turnedpletely pale. He wanted to puke out everything inside his stomach because of the pungent smell of blood and the horrible scene in front of his eyes.
Crown Prince Feng immediately covered his nose and mouth with his long sleeve to stop himself from puking while approached thest leader and asked: "Are¡ are you alright? Wha¡ What exactly is happening? Why do you all¡"
But before Crown Prince Feng finished his words, thest standing leader stabbed his own chest and killed himself!
PPPSSSHHHH~!!!
The spurting blood sshed onto Crown Prince Feng''s face and some drops of blood even entered his eyes!
"AAARRGGHHH~!!!" Crown Prince Feng screamed out loud in fright and pain, then ran blindly toward the door.
All Crown Prince Feng wanted to do right now was to escape from this ursed room as soon as possible!
Unfortunately, the door could not be opened.
Crown Prince Feng was sure that he never locked the door before, but he did not have any time to ponder about that.
He kicked the door with all of his strength but still failed to break it.
Crown Prince Feng gnashed his teeth and refused to give up.
He kicked the door again and again but still failed to break it despite all of his efforts.
"This is impossible¡ Unless¡ If I am¡ inside an array?" Crown Prince Feng murmured as his eyes lost all of the hope.
The room reverted to its previous quietness right now, but it only made Crown Prince Feng more scared than before since he did not have any people to protect him anymore right now.
RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The deafening sound of thunder broke the silence as the dazzling lightning made the darkroom bright with its shing light.
Suddenly, there was someone wearing a ck cloak who stood silently right in front of Crown Prince Feng.
"AAAHHH~!!! You¡ You¡ Get away from me! Guards! Guards!" Crown Prince Feng screamed in fright and horror as he hastily took a few steps back to keep his distance from the ck-cloaked person.
Meanwhile, the ck cloak person leisurely took a step forward to approach Crown Prince Feng.
It did not take long before Crown Prince Feng got cornered as his back bumped into a wall behind him.
Crown Prince Feng could no longer retreat backward, so he decided to take a risk instead.
By chance, there was a sword from the fallen leaders on his feet.
He quickly took the sword from the ground and swung it toward the ck-cloaked person with all of his strength.
PPPUUUFFF~!!!
The ck-cloaked person was cut into two by Crown Prince Feng''s sword!
Crown Prince Feng waspletely dumbfounded by how easily he killed the ck-cloaked person.
But he immediatelyughed maniacally in delight and said: "BWAHAHAHAHA... Serve your right! How dare you try to attack me?!"
At this moment, the figure of the ck-cloaked person was distorted and then turned onto thest standing leader from before!
That leader already died, but his eyes stared at Crown Prince Feng in shock and disbelief. As if he could not believe that Crown Prince Feng would suddenly brandish his sword and kill him at this moment.
Chapter 350: Finally, Another Quest!
Chapter 350: Finally, Another Quest!
Crown Prince Feng released his sword in fright and shock.
He retreated backward again until he bumped hard onto the wall behind him.
He felt his energy had been drained by the tension and could no longer stand up, so he identally fell and sat on the floor.
Clear liquid started to wet his pant and the pungent smell of urine was started to spreading in the air.
There was no more haughtiness and dignity left in Crown Prince Feng''s current appearance.
Crown Prince Feng could no longer hold on. He felt like he will lose his mind soon if he kept staying in this room flooded with blood and littered with dead bodies, so he started shouting out loud again: "AAAAAHHHH~!!! Help! Guards! Guards! Please, help me! HEEEELLLLPPP~!!! ANYONE, HELP ME~!!!"
Suddenly, there was a husky voice that replied to Crown Prince Feng''s shout: "There is no one who will help you tonight. But you do not need to worry. I will send the ''others'' to catch up to you soon, including your father and mother."
After saying that, the ck-cloaked person appeared once again in front of Crown Prince Feng.
The ck-cloaked person strangled Crown Prince Feng''s neck so tightly until Crown Prince Feng felt suffocated and could not breathe.
The ck-cloaked person lifted the sitting Crown Prince Feng until he slowly stood up, then finally Crown Prince Feng''s body was floating on mid-air under the ck-cloaked person''s strong vice-like grip.
Crown Prince Feng''s mouth pped open and closed like a fish out from the water. His eyes also turned bloodshot, and his face turned purple.
The ck-cloaked person kept strangling Crown Prince Feng while used the other hand to grip Crown Prince Feng''s forehead.
CRACK~!!! CRACK~!!! CRACK~!!!
The ck-cloaked person applied its strength onto its grip until Crown Prince Feng''s head twisted in such an unnatural way.
Crown Prince Feng did not immediately die. He could still feel the unimaginable pain as his vision tilted to the direction it should not be able to.
CRAAAAAACCKKKK~!!! PPPPSSSHHHH~!!!
The ck-cloaked person used its strength to twist Crown Prince Feng''s head until it separated from his body and the blood sprayed everywhere like the blood rain.
Crown Prince Feng could see his own headless body in hisst moment right before his consciousness fell into eternal oblivion.
The ck-cloaked person was still holding the Crown Prince Feng''s head in his grasp and kept mumbling with its hoarse voice: "One more down... But it''s still not enough...This is still far from enough... More! More!"
RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡
Under the bright sh of lightning, the ck-cloaked person''s bloodshot eyes were revealed. The eyes were filled with hatred and killing intent.
But the ck-cloaked person vanished again after a few moments just like before, and the room went back to its usual stillness.
.....
...
.
In Instructor Mei Lan''s room, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao already fell asleep so tightly, but Tang Li Xue still stayed awake until now.
Tang Li Xue could not fall asleep, even though she still closed her eyes for some time. So she decided to check on her status window in her system.
Many of her skills had already reached the mastered level, so she decided to upgrade some of them now.
''Telepathy, Concentration, Decrease Reaction-Time, Focus, Sharpen Mind, Calction, Prediction, and Intelligence Enhancement... These are the eight skills that I want to upgrade now, but I must spend 10 Skill Points to upgrade each of them!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she checked her skills on her status window.
''The heck, that is so expensive! I only have 146 Skill Points right now, and I must spend 80 of them just to upgrade my skills?! That is more than half of my Skill Points'' saving!'' Tang Li Xueined in her mind.
Tang Li Xue became very reluctant to upgrade these skills because she already nned to use her Skill Points tobine her three innate divine abilities into one since long ago.
Tang Li Xue really did not want to spend any of her Skill Points but it seems she would need to upgrade these eight skills to finish her new current quest.
Yes, Tang Li Xue finally managed to trigger a new quest before she entered Tang Feng City today.
Tang Li Xue nced at her system notification log.
------------------
[Quest: (Inspector) The cold-blooded serial killer is currently lurking in Tang Feng City. Many lives have already fallen in its hands. Help Instructor Mei Lan catch that cold-blooded serial killer and stop it from doing more ughter.]
[Difficulty: Hard]
[Requirement: Keen Senses and High-level of Intelligence]
[Reward: Level +3(+1), Stat Point +300(+75), Skill Point +45(+11), 400(+100) Deity Coins]
[Requirement for Perfect Evaluation: Defeat the Serial Killer by your own hands.]
[Additional Reward: Skill Point +100]
------------------
There was a new line in this new questpared to the previous other quests that Tang Li Xue hadpleted before. It was telling about the requirement to get the perfect evaluation.
''What the hell?! Defeat the Serial Killer by my own hands?! So you are telling me to face the serial killer at the Spirit Beast rank alone?! Why don''t you just tell me tomit suicide with a block of tofu right now?! Sigh... System, why the hell is you so unreasonable?!'' Tang Li Xue grumbled in her heart.
But Tang Li Xue must admit that despite the almost impossible requirement for the Perfect Evaluation, the Additional Reward was surely very enticing.
It was 100 Skill Points!!!
What Tang Li Xue needed the most right now was the Skill Points and Deity Coins toprehend her new Ancient Martial Art, [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and thought: ''Calm down, Tang Li Xue! You must be more realistic. It is futile if you lost your life when trying to chase that Perfect Evaluation for the additional reward!''
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth to push away her hesitation as she chose the first skill to upgrade.
[Telepathy skill already reached mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Lock-On Telepathy with costs of 10 Skill Points? Yes/No]
''[Lock-On Telepathy]?! It sounds good... YES!'' Tang Li Xue licked her silently pink lips and agreed to upgrade it.
[Telepathy upgraded to Lock-On Telepathy Ability.]
Tang Li Xue''s [Telepathy] skill was always sluggish when she tried tomunicate secretly with anyone specifically, and she could only do it from very close like when she was standing right beside the target.
But after her [Telepathy] skill upgraded to [Lock-On Telepathy] right now, she felt that she could do it wlessly without using much effort even from tens of meters away as if telepathy had be second nature for her.
''Next! Let''s upgrade [Calction] Skill first!'' Tang Li Xue took a deep breath again and chose [Calction] skill.
[Calction skill already reached mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Precise Calction with costs of 10 Skill Points? Yes/No]
''[Precise Calction]?! WOW~!!! This sounds so OP! YES!'' Tang Li Xue gasped in awe and agreed again.
[Calction upgraded to Precise Calction.]
Tang Li Xue immediately felt that she could calcte everything very easily inside her mind in an instant.
Unfortunately, this [Precise Calction] was really wasted on an unschrly type of person like Tang Li Xue, who spent most of her previous life in the hospital rather than school.
The skill to calcte everything so precisely inside her mind in an instant was truly an impressive OP skill, but applying it in everyday life or even in the middle of fierce battle was another matter altogether.
Tang Li Xue would need to learn a lot of mathematic forms and how to apply them first before she could use this [Precise Calction] skill to its fullest potential, but unfortunately, no mathematician could teach her on this subject anymore in this Immortal World.
''This skill is pretty OP¡ I can probably easily be a great mathematician if I am still in my previous life. But it seems quite useless to have it now... Oh, well... At least, I can count my money easier with this skill. Next! [Focus] skill!'' Tang Li Xue imagined for a while but immediately decided to move on to upgrading the next skill.
[Focus skill already reached mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Intense Focus with costs of 10 Skill Points? Yes/No]
''[Intense Focus]? Doesn''t sound so impressive, but¡ Let''s upgrade it now and see it! YES!'' Tang Li Xue licked her lips and approved the upgrade notification.
[Focus upgraded to Intense Focus.]
After the [Focus] skill upgraded into [Intense Focus], Tang Li Xue felt that her mind turned much clearer in that instant.
Tang Li Xue felt that she could easily think deeply, analyze, and focus on whatever she was doing under any pressure or any condition anytime without feeling distracted.
''This skill is awesome! It''s especially really useful when I am fighting in the middle of a fierce battle! I can keep my head cool with my [Indomitable Will] skill and maintain my focus with this [Intense Focus] skill. Not bad¡ Next! Upgrade [Prediction] skill!'' Tang Li Xue excitedly chose to upgrade the next skill.
[Prediction skill already reached mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to urate Prediction with costs of 10 Skill Points? Yes/No]
''Woah, [urate Prediction]~! Just from the name alone is already enough to tell that this skill is OP and very practical! There is no need to hesitate anymore to upgrade this skill! Absolutely YES!'' Tang Li Xue unhesitatingly chose yes.
[Prediction upgraded to urate Prediction.]
Tang Li Xue felt in an instant that she could predict everything on her surrounding in a radius of several meters with this [urate Prediction].
The feeling from this [urate Prediction] skill was much more superior to the previous [Prediction] where she could only faintly predict her opponent''s movement before.
Of course, the effect of this [urate Prediction] skill was still far inferior to Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes], but that all made sense since Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes] was an OP divine ability of Wind Elemental Spirit while [urate Prediction] was only ssified as usual skill.
However, Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes] could only predict everything in Yaya''s field of vision, while the [urate Prediction] skill in a radius of several meters from Tang Li Xue.
''AMAZING~! This skill is truly amazing! I really cannot wait to try this skill in the real battle!'' Tang Li Xue gasped in awe from the indescribable wonderful feeling given by this [urate Prediction] skill.
Unfortunately, this [urate Prediction] skill also has a fatal weaknesspared to Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes] divine ability, if the enemy''s speed surpassed Tang Li Xue, then she would still not be able to do anything, even if she could predict where her enemy will attacks.
Meanwhile, Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes] could still see through any kind of attacks or movements, no matter how fast it was, and predict it several moves earlier than Tang Li Xue''s [urate Prediction] skill.
Anyway, Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes] and Tang Li Xue''s [urate Prediction] have their own strength and weakness, so both of them wouldplement each other when Tang Li Xue entered [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya and would make them more powerful in that mode.
Chapter 351: Improved Tang Li Xue!
Chapter 351: Improved Tang Li Xue!
''All right! Next! Upgrade Decrease Reaction-Time! This skill is quite important in battle, so I hope it can be even more useful after I upgrade it...'' Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and chose [Decrease Reaction-Time].
[Decrease Reaction-Time skill already reached mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Increase Reaction Speed with costs of 10 Skill Points? Yes/No]
''[Increase Reaction Speed]? It does not seem that much different from [Decrease Reaction-Time]... I wonder if it''s really worth upgrading? Oh well... YES!'' Tang Li Xue pushed her hesitation and approved the upgrade.
[Decrease Reaction-Time skill upgraded to Increase Reaction Speed.]
Tang Li Xue frowned a bit since she did not feel that different after this upgrade, but it did not take long for her to realize the difference.
Imagine if Tang Li Xue suddenly got attacked by the person right beside her in the middle of the crowd, she would probably need 0.3 seconds to think and another 0.3 seconds to react, so she needed 0.6 seconds in total.
Although 0.6 seconds did seem very short, but if the attacker was more powerful than Tang Li Xue, and he was the expert in assassination skill, then 0.6 seconds was more than enough for Tang Li Xue to lose her life a few times.
But with the help of the [Decrease Reaction-Time] skill from before, Tang Li Xue could reduce the time to think and react to half, from 0.6 seconds to 0.4 seconds.
After the [Decrease Reaction-Time] skill upgraded to [Increase Reaction Speed] skill, Tang Li Xue might still need 0.2 seconds to think, but she could react in an instant with her reflexes, which made her almost impossible to get assassinated in an instant.
This [Increase Reaction Speed] could also help Tang Li Xue reacted to dodge, block, or even counterattack when she was facing the enemies with some unexpected abilities like teleport, stealthy, and so on, then attacking her from an unexpected angle, which made it very useful in the real battle.
''This skill is... Not bad! Okay, next! Upgrade [Sharpen Mind]!'' Tang Li Xue chose to upgrade the [Sharpen Mind] skill.
[Sharpen Mind skill already reached mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Razor-Sharp Mind with costs of 10 Skill Points? Yes/No]
''[Razor-Sharp Mind]? Does it mean my mind will get sharper than before? Of course, YES~!'' Tang Li Xue joyfully approved the upgrade again.
[Sharpen Mind skill upgraded to Razor-Sharp Mind.]
Surprisingly, the ability of this [Razor-Sharp Mind] skill actually covered up the weakness of 0.2 seconds of dy time to think from before!
This [Razor-Sharp Mind] skill made Tang Li Xue able to think very quickly and instantly take the discerning decision in any crucial moment.
The ability of this [Razor-Sharp Mind] skill might be even more important than the previous [Increase Reaction Speed]!
Equipped with these many convenient skills would certainly make Tang Li Xue much more powerful than before.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue wascking too much in terms of experience and knowledge, which would severely impair her ability to use all of these skills to their fullest potential.
''What a great skill?! Okay... With this, I only have two more skills to upgrade! Let''s start with [Concentration] skill first! Upgrade!'' Tang Li Xue decided.
[Concentration skill already reached mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Improved Concentration with costs of 10 Skill Points? Yes/No]
''[Improved Concentration]... I actually still do not get it... What is the difference between [Focus] and [Concentration]?! Aren''t the two of them actually the same things? Oh well... Let''s see the effect! YES~!'' Tang Li Xue approved with a doubtful tone.
[Concentration skill upgraded to Improved Concentration.]
The effects of [Intense Focus] and [Improved Concentration] were certainly very different.
The [Intense Focus] skill would make Tang Li Xue able to think deeply, analyze, and focus on whatever she was doing under any pressure or any condition anytime without feeling distracted.
But ''focused on something without feeling distracted'' was not necessarily good, especially in the middle of the fierce battle where she could lose her life at any time.
Meanwhile, the ability of [Improved Concentration] could actually be used to cover that situation.
In short, [Intense Focus] skill might be good, but it will make Tang Li Xue''s attention confined in a smaller and smaller area, only on something that Tang Li Xue was focused on doing.
While [Improved Concentration] would make Tang Li Xue''s attention to everything around her expanding much greater than usual, made her able to detect all of her allies and opponents'' every movement, and use all of her abilities at the right timing.
[Intense Focus] skill will help Tang Li Xue achieved an incredible focus where everything around her slowed down, noise fell silent and shuts out everything else other than the clear goal.
Of course, Tang Li Xue still could not tell the difference between the two of these skills at all right now...
''Eiii~! Who says I cannot tell the difference?! I... I swear I can feel that all of my senses including my [Extrasensory Perception] be sharper than before... probably... perhaps... maybe... Forget it! Let''s upgrade thest skill, [Intelligence Enhancement]! Upgrade!'' Tang Li Xue moved on and upgraded herst mastered level skill.
[Intelligence Enhancement skill already reached mastered. Do you want to upgrade it to Advanced Intelligence Enhancement with costs of 10 Skill Points? Yes/No]
''Tsk, tsk, tsk~! [Advanced Intelligence Enhancement]?! This is surely my favorite skill among all the eight skills! So... Of course, YES!'' Tang Li Xue agreed without any hesitation this time.
[Intelligence Enhancement skill upgraded to Advanced Intelligence Enhancement.]
Tang Li Xue instantly felt that many things she could not understand before had be clear.
Thanks to this [Advanced Intelligence Enhancement], Tang Li Xue could learn andprehend everything much easier from now on.
''Sofortable! This feeling is truly unimaginable! It feels like I can think of any difficult answer without feeling any headache anymore!'' Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips in joy.
Tang Li Xue really wanted tough out loud to express her excitement so badly right now, but she could not do it because there were so many sleeping people in this room.
After upgrading all of the necessary skills, Tang Li Xue nned to go straight to sleep since she needs to wake up very early tomorrow.
Unfortunately, she could not fall asleep because of her overflowing excitement and eagerness to test her new upgraded skills.
In the end, she decided to send her consciousness to her Dantian and dripped a drop of her blood onto [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] to enter Sun Dragon King''s memories.
Tang Li Xue certainly could not use all of her skills and divine abilities in Sun Dragon King''s memories, but the passive effect of [Intense Focus], [Improved Concentration], [Advanced Intelligence Enhancement], and so on still affected Tang Li Xue to heightened her overall survivability.
She also realized many things that she failed to realize before.
For example, she actually got the ability to spit the dragon me on the 2nd day, but the fire she can create was too small, just like a tiny spark of me.
The previous Tang Li Xue did not even notice this detail because the dragon me she could spit was too small.
Even if the previous her noticed it, she would definitely just ignore it since that tiny spark of me could probably not even wound the weakest creature in this extremely dangerous forest.
But with all of her new upgraded skills, the current Tang Li Xue was different than before.
What kind of power made Sun Dragon King became the strongest of the Four Dragon Kings?
Of course, it was its Pure Yang Sun me!
This tiny spark of the me should be the embryonic form of Pure Yang Sun me!
Rather than relying on her tiny dragon fangs and ws, she should nurture this tiny spark of Pure Yang Sun me instead.
With that idea in her mind, Tang Li Xue started to hunt for the weaker creatures while kept hiding or escaping from the stronger ones.
The previous Tang Li Xue always thought about preserving her life and survives as long as possible, and she also did the same way as this in her real life.
But right now, the current Tang Li Xue finally knew how futile it was.
In order to survive, she could not just remain passive and wait until everything was over, she needs to seize everything with her own hands.
This fact was not only applied in the dream world, but also in the real world!
That was the reason why so many people and beasts fought with each other for cultivation resources so fiercely!
They could not just remain passive and wait for their foes to give them mercy by sparing their lives, aren''t they?!
Tang Li Xue also realized the true function of [Intense Focus] and [Improved Concentration].
[Intense Focus] skill will help Tang Li Xue achieved an incredible focus where everything around her slowed down and lost track of time, noise fell silent and shuts out everything else other than her one clear goal.
On the contrary, [Improved Concentration] skill will keep on track of her surrounding in minute detail with all of her senses which heightened to the maximum potential, made her able to analyze everything carefully with a clear mind to defeat her opponents or assist her allies.
[Indomitable Will] kept her emotion in check and stayed clear in any dire situation.
[Advanced Intelligence Enhancement] made her smarter, so she could think of many ideas and strategies that she could not think of before.
In short, almost all of her new upgraded skills were perfectly fit with each other (excluding the [Lock-On Telepathy]). It was not strange that the seven skills could bebined into one OP divine abilityter in the near future.
With her improved intelligence, Tang Li Xue could even cleverly provoked the stronger beasts and bait them into the area of giant Venus Traps, made them fight with each other, then took advantage of their exhaustion to y the stronger beasts and took the beast core.
Tang Li Xue did not absorb the energy from the beast core to nurture her body but using it to nurture the dragon me.
The dragon me kept growing more and more powerful and bigger under Tang Li Xue''s care.
In only a few days, the tiny spark of dragon me had grown up into the size of a baby fist, but the heat emitted from it was tremendous.
Surely, that baby fist-sized fist dragon me was not powerful enough to kill any big creature, but it was more than enough to kill the strong but small creature.
Tang Li Xue immediately set her eyes on the white unicorn living in theke area and managed to y it using her dragon me by hiding inside theke, then ambushing the white unicorn when it wanted to drink the water from theke.
It was a high-risk high-return action.
The white unicorn has the powerful lightning-type divine ability.
If Tang Li Xue got found out and zapped by the white unicorn''s lightning, she would certainly die in one st.
Fortunately, it was a huge sess for Tang Li Xue.
But the lives in the dangerous forest were not as easy as any ce in Immortal World, right after Tang Li Xue managed to kill the white unicorn, its dead body and its beast core almost got stolen by another powerful Storm Hawk.
Thanks to her [urate Prediction] and [Increase Reaction Speed], Tang Li Xue could swiftly decide in a single moment to take the white unicorn''s beast core before the Storm Hawk could swoop down to take it and immediately jumped into theke to hide under the water while swam to the other safe ce.
With the immense energy of the beast core from the white unicorn, Tang Li Xue''s dragon me grown much more powerful again, it grew from the size of a baby fist to the size of a ser ball right now.
After entering this world of memories so many times, only this time Tang Li Xue couldfortably live in this world like this.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue started to feel conceited with her own strength and began to be greedier.
This was truly a big blunder for anyone, not just Tang Li Xue¡
When anyone held great strength, they will feel conceited.
Once anyone feels the great benefit of something, they will want more and more of it, to the point they want to get all of it for themselves.
Thus, everything started to get down for Tang Li Xue before she finally got in by the king of the forest on her 21st day in that forest.
Nheless, this was the longest time for Tang Li Xue to manage to survive in the world of Sun Dragon King''s memories.
Usually, she could only survive for less than a week inside the Sun Dragon King''s memories.
Tang Li Xue tried to enter the Sun Dragon King''s memories again and again until her mind waspletely exhausted, but the longest she could survive was only for 23 days there.
In her extreme mental exhaustion, it did not take long for Tang Li Xue to fall into a deep slumber like Yaya, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao.
Chapter 352: Get Suspected!
Chapter 352: Get Suspected!
While the others already fell into a deep sleep, only Instructor Mei Lan and Little Loki remained awake tonight.
The usualzy and sleepy Little Loki sat beside the sleeping Tang Li Xue while staring toward the closed window.
The others might not be able to sense anything under this thunderstorm, but Little Loki''s sharp senses as one of the mighty Four Evil Fiend Beasts could still feel the intense killing intent, and arge amount of blood had been spilled from somewhere outside.
This made Little Loki somewhat uneasy, so it decided to stay awake tonight and guard Tang Li Xue against any harm from outside.
Instructor Mei Lan opened her eyes and nced at Little Loki, who was sitting beside the sleeping Tang Li Xue.
She could not sense anything happening on the outside like Little Loki, but her intuition could tell from Little Loki''s restless behavior that something terrible was currently happening outside.
Little Loki sensed that Instructor Mei Lan looked toward it, so Little Lokie nced back to Instructor Mei Lan and their eyes met with each other for a few moments.
But Little Loki quickly lost interest, then it decided to ignore Instructor Mei Lan and staring back at the closed window again.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled in amusement when she saw Little Loki trying to act so smugly and mature in its tiny kitten body.
Instructor Mei Lan actually always remained vignt at Little Loki before because she had a doubt that Little Loki would hurt Tang Li Xue sooner orter.
But right now, Instructor Mei Lan was finally convinced that Little Loki was really caring for Tang Li Xue and concerned about Tang Li Xue''s safety.
Both of them did not talk or said anything, but they stayed overnight to guard.
The fierce thunderstorm also persisted for an entire night, but it gradually died down when the dawn came.
When the morning arrived, and the patrolling guards started their duty, some of them immediately realized something horrible had happenedst night.
It did not take long for the news to spread around, and the higher-up to knew about it!
¡..
¡
.
BAAAAANG~!!!
The door of Instructor Mei Lan''s room was kicked open by someone, and many imperial guards immediately rushed into the room!
Instructor Mei Lan already knew their existence a few moments ago before they barged into her room with her [Sonar] ability, so she did not panic at all.
But the sleeping Tang Li Xue, Yaya, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao awoke from their sleep in that instant in surprise.
Moreover, they immediately saw so many imperial guards surrounded them when they opened their eyes, so they instantly raised their guard to the maximum and wanted to fight those imperial guards.
Especially Yaya, she really hated anyone who dares to disturb her sleep the most other than Tang Li Xue of course.
Fortunately, they fell asleep while kept wearing their ck cloak and hoodst night, so their identity as the foxes from Fox Race did not get revealed yet.
Tang Li Xue and the others finally knew why one of Instructor Mei Lan''s rules said that they must keep wearing and never ever remove their ck cloak and hood outside of Myriad Foxes Academy.
"Stop! Do not resist! It seems there is some misunderstanding here. May I ask the reason why so many of youe here so early into our room this morning?" Instructor Mei Lan warned all of her students while asking for the reason.
The captain of the imperial guards stared at Instructor Mei Lan and the others one by one in suspicion.
But his expression softened a bit after he saw the beautiful faces of Instructor Mei Lan and Bing Yi.
No men could resist the charm of beautiful women, so even the captain of the imperial guards let his guard down a bit in front of Instructor Mei Lan.
But the captain of the imperial guards did not dare to answer Instructor Mei Lan''s question since the answer was really sensitive and concerning the reputation of the entire Feng Empire.
He asked Instructor Mei Lan an interrogating question instead: "Do all of you stay in this room together fromst night until this morning?"
Instructor Mei Lan put on a confused expression while replied: "Yes, that is right. Some of my female students were afraid of thunder, so we decided to sleep in one roomst night. Is there something wrong with it? Are we viting the rules of Imperial Pce by doing that?"
Instructor Mei Lan kept conversing with the captain of the imperial guards while nced secretly toward Tang Li Xue and whispered with her [Telepathy] skill to Tang Li Xue: "Your clone is still in the other room, right? Try to use it to find some information about what happenedst night."
Tang Li Xue secretly nodded back to Instructor Mei Lan and replied with her [Lock-On Telepathy]: "No imperial guards are barging into my perfect copy''s room yet. But the Core Disciple of Immortal Sword Sect, Ye Zhen, already came to meet with me in front of my room. I will try to ask about it from him."
In the end, the captain of the imperial guards asked Instructor Mei Lan and her students to keep staying inside this room since the Imperial Guards need to interrogate and investigate them further.
Instructor Mei Lan and the others were forced toply with their request and kept staying in the room for now.
All of them could not roam around to search for information or clues since all of these Imperial Guards kept watching them, so they have no choice other than to rely on Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to look for it now.
¡..
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already returned to her roomst night after getting scolded by Instructor Mei Lan, and she slept therest night.
When the Imperial Guards barged into her real self room, she also woke up in surprise at the same time.
Strangely, there were no Imperial Guards stormed into her room, but Ye Zhen already waited in front of her room.
Ye Zhen wanted to knock on the door of her room, but she could already sense him with her sharp [Extrasensory Perception].
Knock... Knock... Knock...
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily fixed her ck cloak and hood to cover her fox ears and foxtail, then wear back her fox mask to cover her face before shouting: "Who is there?"
"Young Miss Xiao, it is me, Ye Zhen." Ye Zhen replied from in front of the door.
"Ah¡ So, it is Young Master Ye. You cane in!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied with a sleepy voice while opened the door for Ye Zhen to enter.
Ye Zhen smiled gently at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy while asked: "Good morning, Young Miss Xiao. Did you sleep wellst night?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied with a yful tone: "Do you know that there is a huge thunderstormst night? How could I sleep under that kind of weather? I only managed to get good quick sleep this morning, and you wake me up so early. You better have a good exnation for interrupting my sleep, or I will get really angry at you soon."
Ye Zhenughed bashfully at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and said: "Young Miss Xiao, I¡"
But before Ye Zhen could finish his words, someone hase to interrupt his conversation with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Chou Nu!" Elder Yang shouted with a worried tone while his figure shed in an instant into the room of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
He saw that Tang Li Xue''s door was open, so he thought something bad happened to her.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes again and said with a mocking tone: "Elder Yang, can you knock on the door first before entering into a girl''s room? Or maybe forcefully enter the girl''s room without being invited is actually your hobby? "
Elder Yang blushed slightly in embarrassment after he heard Tang Li Xue''s mocking question, but he immediately turned his attention to Ye Zhen and said with a warning tone: "What are doing here? Do you know that there are so many things you need to do right now? Go and join the investigation team!"
"Ah?! All¡ All right, Elder Yang! Uhh¡ Young Miss Xiao, I am sorry, but I must go right now¡ Please be really careful from now on and¡" Ye Zhen epted Elder Yang''s order, then he bid his farewell to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and reminded her.
Elder Yang frowned and said again with a cold tone: "Do not waste any more time, go now!"
Ye Zhen unwillingly went out from the room of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and heading toward the entrance of Cherry Blossom Spring Pce to meet with the other elders of Immortal Sword Sect.
"Eh, wait¡" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to stop Ye Zhen and asked what happenedst night from him, but it was already toote since Ye Zhen was already gone from her room.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned and pursed her pinkish lips in annoyance while ring at Elder Yang.
Elder Yang spread his hands in helplessness and said with a convincing tone: "Why do you look at me like that? I did not make it up. He really has so many things to do right now."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in helplessness. She actually did not want to talk or say anything to Elder Yang, but it seems she did not have any other choice right now.
"I am really confused and curious right now. Why do you and Ye Zhene into my room so early in the morning?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy unwillingly asked Elder Yang with an irritated tone.
Elder Yang raised his eyebrow and asked back while smirking at her: "Do you really want to know so badly?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes for the third time this morning.
This was the reason why she really hated to talk with Elder Yang. He did not only ckmail her before but he also often replied to her question with another question.
Chapter 353: Elder Yangs Terms!
Chapter 353: Elder Yang''s Terms!
"It is all right if you do not want to tell me. I can just chase after Ye Zhen right now and ask the reason from him by myself." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said while suddenly stood up from her seat and took a few steps to head out from her room.
Elder Yang felt surprised, but he immediately grabbed Tang Li Xue''s smooth white hand to stop her from wandering by herself: "Eh? Wait! The situation outside is quite chaotic and dangerous, so you better not roaming around alone for now."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned in displeasure and pulled her smooth hand from Elder Yang''s grasp while asked with a curious tone: "What do you mean by chaotic and dangerous? Is there something terrible that happened outsidest night?"
Elder Yang hesitated for a few moments on whether he should tell the truth to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy or not because this matter was really vital for investigation, and Elder Yang actually did not want to let many unrted people know about it.
Especially for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, since Elder Yang thought that telling about this matter to her would only bring her more harm than good.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sensed the hesitation from Elder Yang with her [Extrasensory Perception], she quickly put a coquettish act and said with an alluring beautiful smile on her face: "Elder Yang~, you look very handsome today. I bet all the girls who see you today will fall head over heel with you."
Although she still wore her fox mask, but it only covered the upper half of her stunningly beautiful face, so Elder Yang could still saw her alluring smile very clearly.
Even someone with a steady will like Elder Yang was made dumbfounded for a few seconds in awestruck by her innocent but charming smile.
It took Elder Yang a while to wake up from his daze and chuckled in amusement at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy while said with a teasing tone: "Really? Does it mean you also fall head over heel with my handsomeness today?"
"Of Course, n.... no doubt that I almost fall head over heel with you just now. You are so handsome today after all! Ehehehe... All right, can you please tell me what happenedst night, please~ Handsome Elder Yang?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy almost denied her own praise words in an instant, but she quickly recovered and praised Elder Yang again while giggled cutely and asked him a question with a coquettish tone.
Elder Yang sighed in resignation at Tang Li Xue''s behavior. The way she acted and her sparkling topaz blue eyes really reminded him of histe Xiao Bai when it begged for food or something from him.
He really could not refuse his Xiao Bai''s request previously after it started to act like that, nor he also had the heart to refuse the request from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy right now after she persuaded him like that.
Elder Yang fondly stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy. He did not immediately answer Tang Li Xue''s question but stated his terms first: "I will tell you everything about what happenedst night, but you must promise to obey my terms first."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy started to get pissed, and she frowned deeply in displeased, then asked: "Terms?"
Elder Yang proceeded to tell Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy about all of his terms: "First, you must never tell anyone about everything I will tell youter. Second, you must always follow me really close to where ever I go from now on. You do not need to ask for the reason. If you swear to follow all of my terms, then you will definitely know the reason after I tell you everythingter."
This time, it was Tang Li Xue''s turn to hesitate since she really could not fulfill any of those two terms.
First, she must tell every information she got to Instructor Mei Lan and the others sooner orter, so she clearly could not fulfill Elder Yang''s first terms.
Second, as Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, she could not go too far from her original self for now, maybe only about several miles away right now, so she also could not fulfill the second terms to always follow Elder Yang closely to somewhere far from her real self.
The previous Tang Li Xue would definitely reject to follow Elder Yang''s terms angrily in an instant and scolded Elder Yang back for his unreasonable terms.
But the current Tang Li Xue had already grown up much smarter than the previous Tang Li Xue thanks to her several upgraded skills.
"I understand. I will definitely try to follow all of your terms." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied with a serious expression.
Yes, she did not promise to definitely follow it... she only said that she would TRY to follow Elder Yang''s terms.
Well... At least, she was trying, right? Although, she would definitely not obey those terms to the end.
Elder Yang nodded and smiled in satisfaction after he heard the reply from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Let''s go! I will tell you everything that happenedst night on our way to the crime scene." Elder Yang said to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy as he walked out of her room.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily closed the door of her room before followed Elder Yang closely from behind.
On their way out from Cherry Blossom Spring Pce, Elder Yang started to tell Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy everything.
From Elder Yang''s story, Tang Li Xue immediately knew that the situation in Imperial Pce right now was actually far worse than what Instructor Mei Lan had predicted.
Instructor Mei Lan had predicted that there would be someone get killed by the serial killerst night, but the serial killer actually slew more than a third of important officials from Feng Empire that attended the banquetst night.
This terrible news had shaken the entire Imperial Pce of Feng Empire this morning!
Previously, the culprit of serial murder was already killed so many people in Tang Feng City too, and most of them also officials of the Feng Empire, the rest of the victims were the families of those officials and the strong cultivators that got hired to guard them.
But at least, all of those victims were killed outside of Imperial Pce!
However, that cold-blooded serial killer finally found its way to somehow infiltrate into Imperial Pcest night and slew so many people here in the middle of a thunderstorm!
This fact created a huge uproar in the Imperial Pce of Feng Empire because that cold-blooded serial killer finally could threaten all of the people from the Imperial Family living in the Imperial Pce, including the Emperor, Empress, and so on!
The seed of fear, horror, doubt, and suspicion started to spread to all of the people in Imperial Pce, and many kinds of rumors started to spread among the important officials and the upper echelons of the Feng Empire.
ording to the number of people who get killedst night, many people concluded that the serial killer was actually not one person, but a group of people or maybe many groups of people, since it was impossible for only one person to kill so many people at once in a single night under that kind of extreme weather.
Some people said that the serial killer was actually the group of important officials that attended the night banquetst night, so it was better to just drive all of them out from Imperial Pce for the safety of Emperor and Empress.
While the other people said that the serial killer was actually a group of people who secretly blended in Imperial Guards and took advantage of the thunderstormst night tomit the massacre. Their true motive was to carry out the rebellion to overthrow the current tyrannical Royal Family.
Some even said that the serial killer was mixed with the maids, servants, or butlers in the Imperial Pce, so the serial killer could easily kill the victim while the target let their guard down. That group of people might be from the kingdom or empire who lost to Feng Empire in the war before, so they only wanted to take revenge for their own people.
There was also the other spection that said the serial killer was actually a group of beautiful girls invited by Elder Yang into the Imperial Pce as the guests yesterday. Those girls were actually not humans but the demons in human skin that wanted to devour the lives of all humans in Imperial Pce.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was nearly slipped and fell onto the ground when she heard thest random spection from other peopleing out from Elder Yang''s mouth.
Elder Yang hastily wanted to help Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy while asked: "What happen to you? Do you feel sick right now? Should I call the Imperial Physician here to check your condition?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy raised her palm to stop Elder Yang from touching her and replied while forced a smile out: "It is all right. I am only too shocked by that funny spection you said just now. You do not really believe that nonsense, aren''t you?"
Elder Yang chuckled in amusement while looking at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and said: "Of course not! Do you really take me for the kind of person who will believe those baseless rumors? But the current situation is not looking good for them. Although I already tried to stand up for them in this early morning, but there are just too many people who wanted to use them as scapegoats."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned deeply and asked in confusion with an annoyed tone: "Eh? But¡ why? I really do not get it... It is not like those girls offend any of them, right? Then why they want to use those girls as scapegoats?"
Elder Yang sneered in disgust while exined to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy patiently with a cold tone: "Do you know that the Emperor already issued an emergency decree in anger to seal the entire Imperial pce in this early morning? In short, no one can get in ore out from this Imperial Pce from now on until the culprit of serial murder is found by my people from Immortal Sword Sect."
"Who wants to stay in the Imperial Pce where the cold-blooded serial killer is still roaming around? They only want to execute some random people without any authority and power in this Imperial Pce as an excuse, so the emperor can lift the seal and allow all of them to return to their own homes. The group of petty cowards like them still wants to look loyal and courageous in front of the emperor make me want to puke at their sight." Elder Yang mocked them with a tone filled with loathing and disgust.
Chapter 354: We Are Really Counting on You!
Chapter 354: We Are Really Counting on You!
The expression of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy went dark in an instant after she heard Elder Yang''s words.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy bit her pink lips in worry before decided to ask with a hesitant tone: "You¡ will keep standing up for those girls, right? You will neverply with those groups of petty cowards, right?"
Elder Yang raised his eyebrow and nced at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, then asked back with a curious tone: "I wonder why do you always seem to care so much with those girls? You also acted like this when I was argued with them yesterday. Are you sure that they are not your friends or something?"
Thanks to her several upgraded skillsst night, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could remain really calm and did not panic under Elder Yang''s doubtful questions.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyzily replied: "Because they are the same people like me. They are also rogue cultivators without any authority and power that wandering around randomly to many ces, just like me. Oh, wait... There is something strange here... why don''t those officials make me into a scapegoat too?"
Elder Yang chuckled and said: "Do you think that those rotten officials really do not want to do that?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief before eximed in surprise: "Those rotten bast*rds really want to do that to me too?!"
Elder Yang immediately put up a smug expression and said: "Of course! Who do you think defended you from them? It is me! Without my help, you and those girls would be already detained in the dungeon and would be executed sooner orter. So, you should feel more grateful to me and treat me better from now on."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes at Elder Yang and replied with a mocking tone: "Honorable Elder Yang, please think carefully about it again. Do you really think those girls and me can enter the Imperial Pce of Feng Empire without the invitation from you? That is impossible, right?"
"In other words, we are all in this mess because of the invitation from you. If we somehow got detained or executed here, then all of those would be your fault, your sin! So, you better do your best to stand for us because it is your responsibility for bringing us into this mess. You should be the one that feels grateful and treat me better from now on since I am not ming you for all of these." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy cleverly reversed Elder Yang''s words while smiled mischievously.
Elder Yang: "..."
Elder Yang became speechless by the statement from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy. He subconsciously dropped his jaw and widened his eyes in shock, then forgot to close it for a few moments.
After saying all of those statements, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt really satisfied to see Elder Yang''s dumbfounded expression, so she decided to walk ahead of Elder Yang and left him behind.
Elder Yang woke up from his dumbfounded state after a few moments and said while pointing his finger to his left: "Uh¡ you are heading in the wrong direction. We should be heading this way."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy almost stumbled and fell when she heard Elder Yang''s words, but she quickly steadied herself and turned around to head toward the direction where Elder Yang pointed.
Both of them kept talking and teasing each other in their way until they arrived at one of the crime scenes where all the officials in the room got ughtered without any mercy.
This crime scene was the closest one to Elder Yang''s Cherry Blossom Spring Pce. That was the reason why Elder Yang decided to inspect this ce first.
At first, Elder did not let Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy get close to the crime scene because the scene here was too gruesome for a young girl like her to see.
However, Elder Yang finally gave up under the insistent of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and let here into the crime scene, but with the condition that she was not allowed to touch anything here without Elder Yang''s permission.
¡..
¡
.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan, the real Tang Li Xue, and the others still got detained inside the room where they sleptst night.
So many imperial guards kept watching them inside the room and guarding outside the door and windows.
There was really no way for them to secretly slip out without being seen by these imperial guards since these imperial guards kept watching their every movement so closely.
They were not even allowed to go to the toilet until now.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan and all of her students could defeat all of these Imperial Guards very easily and forcefully break out from here, but they would certainly be the most wanted fugitives of the entire Tang Feng City.
But even the most powerful amongst them, Instructor Mei Lan, needs to stay really wary against the elders who protect Elder Yang, so they could not afford to do something reckless like that now.
Moreover, they still need to find the serial killer who currently hid in the Imperial Pce right now, so doing something brainless like that really did not make any sense at all.
Even Instructor Mei Lan was at her wit''s end right now, and she could not find a way out from this deadlock situation.
At this moment, the real Tang Li Xue started to tell all the information she got from Elder Yang to Instructor Mei Lan with her newly acquired [Lock-On Telepathy] skill.
"From the information that Little Xue''s clone got, our situation seems worse than I thought. Fortunately, that Elder Yang is nice enough to stand up for us this time, but we still do not know how far he would defend us, and I really do not like to put our fate in the human''s hands. We cannot remain passive like this. We need to do something really fast right now." Instructor Mei Lan whispered to all of her students with her [Telepathy] skill.
"But Instructor Lan, what should we do? We cannot even go to the toilet under these guards'' watch right now! Should I just freeze all of them with my divine ability?" Bing Yi replied to Instructor Mei Lan with her [Telepathy] while gnashed her teeth in hatred and anger.
Bing Yi looked as if she could no longer hold herself back from attacking these rude imperial guards and teach them a very harsh lesson that they would never forget in their entire life.
"What a stupid Ice Girl?! Do you really think Instructor Lan really afraid of these nobodies?! Just one snap of her finger is more than enough to knock out all of these guards! What Instructor Lan wary of is the powerful cultivators from Immortal Sword Sect! They are the reason why we cannot make any reckless move right now. Since we cannot afford to attract their attention and be their target while searching for the serial killer!" Hei Yinghao mercilessly mocked Bing Yi with his [Telepathy] skill.
Although both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were not really skilled yet in their [Telepathy] skills tomunicate with some specific targets like Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue, but they still could use it tomunicate right now since they were so close to each other.
Bing Yi red at Hei Yinghao in anger for a few moments before turned her face away from him and decided to ignore him from now on.
"Instructor Lan, there is something that I still do not understand yet. That is true that the existence of Elder Yang and his several powerful protectors makes us and the serial killer very wary of them right now, and we cannot take any rash action because of them. But what about before Elder Yang came here? What is the true objective of the serial killer? Why didn''t she finish off all of her targets and run far away from this city before Elder Yang came here? I really do not get it¡" The real Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan in confusion with her [Lock-On Telepathy] skill.
Instructor Mei Lan was stunned while kept staring at the real Tang Li Xue in amazement.
Tang Li Xue sensed Instructor Mei Lan''s exaggerating reaction and became really embarrassed.
"Err¡ Instructor Lan, I am sorry, but¡ do I said something wrong or weird just now? Why do you look at me like that?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with [Lock-On Telepathy] while blushed.
"No¡ Nothing strange or wrong at all. It''s just... you seem a lot more reliable, mature, and smarter todaypared to you from yesterday. You from yesterday will never even think that far and detailed." Instructor Mei Lan replied to Tang Li Xue in a strange doubtful tone with her [Telepathy].
"Ah?! Uhh¡ Really? Why I do not feel any different from yesterday?!" Tang Li Xue tried to deny it.
Instructor Mei Lan kept staring at Tang Li Xue while thinking deeply.
It made Tang Li Xue feel even more nervous under Instructor Mei Lan''s intense stare, and she did not dare to stare back at Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes.
Well¡ It was not like she could tell Instructor Mei Lan that she used many of her Skill Points to upgrade many of her skills with her systemst night, right?
"All right, I have decided it. Little Xue, I will send you out from here soon to investigate the whereabouts of the serial killer and find her true identity in this Imperial Pce." Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently and said to Tang Li Xue with her [Telepathy] while secretly patted on Tang Li Xue''s shoulder.
"Eh? WHAT?! Ins¡ Instructor Lan, you are kidding with me, right? Even if you managed to send me out from here, I might not even be able to catch the serial killer''s tail before getting knocked out by her! I am just a [Umon] grade¡ uhh¡ I mean, I am just a demonic beast! I am not even a Beast Lord like Bingbing and Silly Fox, while the serial killer is a Spirit Beast level monster!" Tang Li Xue immediatelyined to Instructor Mei Lan with a darkened expression.
"Who told you to catch the serial killer? I only told you to investigate her whereabouts and find her true identity in Imperial Pce, right? Oh¡ remember to do it secretly without being found by her. And then you only need toe back here and tell me everything. That is not so hard, right?" Instructor Mei Lan tried to persuade Tang Li Xue with her words in a solemn expression.
Tang Li Xue instantly thought: ''Not so hard, my *ss?! For God''s sake, that is the suicide mission, isn''t it?! Isn''t it?!''
"Instructor Lan, I really cannot¡" Tang Li Xue tried to reject Instructor Mei Lan''s n again, but Instructor Me Lan immediately interrupted Tang Li Xue''s words before she could finish it.
"All right! It is decided then! Little Xue, I am really counting on you! NO! We are really counting on you! Our fate is in your hands right now!" Instructor Mei Lan put an even more solemn expression and encouraged Tang Li Xue while secretly patted her shoulder again.
Tang Li Xue almost fainted in an instant when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
It seems Instructor Mei Lan already made up her mind, so Tang Li Xue could no longer reject this suicide mission anymore.
Chapter 355: Instructor Mei Lans Plan!
Chapter 355: Instructor Mei Lan''s n!
"All right, everyone! This is the n...." Instructor Mei Lan proceeded to tell Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao about her n since the n needs their cooperation.
After Instructor Mei Lan told her n to all of her students, the only thing left for them was to execute it wlessly without any mistake.
"AAARRRGGGHHHH~!!!" Hei Yinghao suddenly groaned out loud in pain while holding his stomach to draw the attention of all guards.
Just like how they nned it before, all of the imperial guards'' attentions focused on Hei Yinghao in that instant.
Hei Yinghao hastily ran toward the door while kept holding his stomach. When he faced the imperial guards who guarded the door, he immediately said: "I... I cannot hold it anymore! Please, let me go to the toilet right now! I need to take a crap immediately."
The imperial guards nced at each other in bafflement after they heard Hei Yinghao''s words, and then one of them replied: "Wait a minute, we will need to ask for our captain''s permission first."
When one of the imperial guards wanted to go outside to ask, Hei Yinghao quickly shouted again to him: "Please, be hurry! I really cannot hold it for much longer anymore! ARRRGGHHH~!!! PLEASE, BE FASTER~!"
While Hei Yinghao drawing all of the imperial guards'' attention with his acting and shouting, Instructor Mei Lan kept rubbing her hands together.
She actually used her [Demonic Tune] and [Heavenly Sound] divine abilities to secretly create inaudible ultrasonic sound.
The inaudible ultrasonic voice she made easily made all the imperial guards in the room feel dizzy, nauseous, and headache.
But the imperial guards already trained daily in harsh conditions, so they could easily grit their teeth to withstand the effect.
Of course, the main reason they could withstand Instructor Mei Lan''s sound wave attack right now because she was still holding back most of her strength.
Instructor Mei Lan''s purpose was not to make them fainted after all but to make these imperial guards unable to focus and realize what they were doing right now.
Meanwhile, Bing Yi held Tang Li Xue''s hand and channeling her freezing power to Tang Li Xue''s body.
Bing Yi''s freezing power made Tang Li Xue''s body covered by a thinyer of frost, but it was not over yet. Bing Yi still kept channeling her freezing power non-stop to Tang Li Xue''s body.
In only a few seconds, Tang Li Xue''s body was already encased by a thickyer of ice because of Bing Yi''s freezing power.
Normally, Tang Li Xue would be already frozen, but Tang Li Xue skillfully covered her body with water using her Water Controlling Technique she got from the [ck Tortoise] chapter of [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art].
While Bing Yi skillfully controlled her freezing power to freeze only the water and create a thickyer of ice on the surface of Tang Li Xue''s body, not to attack Tang Li Xue nor to freeze her.
Their objective was to create an identical ice statue of Tang Li Xue within the shortest amount of time without being noticed by any imperial guards.
But the most difficult part of their n was for Tang Li Xue to get out from the ice statue without breaking it.
Why did they need to do all of these troublesome things like this while Tang Li Xue could easily get out of this room by her [Ethereal Form] divine ability?
The reason for that was because Tang Li Xue needs to leave this room without being noticed by any imperial guards to not make a hugemotion.
In order to do that, they need to create an identical ice statue of Tang Li Xue to take her ce and that identical ice statue needs to wear Tang Li Xue''s clothes, Cloud Covering Veil, ck cloak, and ck hood!
Well, it was not like all of the imperial guards here could see Tang Li Xue''s appearance since almost her entire body was covered by her white clothes, ck cloak, and ck hood right now, while her face was covered by Cloud Covering Veil.
"Little Loki, Yaya, I will put you two into my system storage first for a few minutes, okay? I will summon you two out again after I manage to go out from here." Tang Li Xue exined to Yaya and Little Loki with her [Lock-On Telepathy] and swiftly opened their status window in her system, then stored the two of them into her system''s storage space.
After the identical ice statue of Tang Li Xue had been created by freezing the water that covered Tang Li Xue''s entire body, it was finally time for Tang Li Xue to get out from the ice statue without breaking it.
The cold sweat poured out from Bing Yi''s forehead because of her nervousness.
It made sense since Bing Yi never even practiced doing something like this before, but now, Instructor Mei Lan suddenly urged her to do delicate work like this without any single mistake.
Bing Yi took a deep breath to calm herself down before putting her right hand on Tang Li Xue''s back to disperse the ice there and let Tang Li Xue out from the ice statue.
Because the ice on Tang Li Xue''s back melted, the water slowly trickled down and wetted the bed where Bing Yi and Tang Li Xue sat together right now.
Both Bing Yi and Tang Li Xue were really scared that some imperial guards would notice what they were currently doing because of this, so they tried to hasten the process.
The set of white clothes Tang Li Xue wore were actually automatically created by her silver badge she got from the Mission Hall of Myriad Foxes Academy, and she stored it in her space pouch right now.
In short, she could not bring even her space pouch with her or the white clothes would vanish when she was going far enough from there!
Wait a minute¡ Doesn''t it mean she would run all around the ce naked without her clothes and cloak?!
No worries!
Tang Li Xue used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] while turned off her iplete [Transfiguration: Human Form] and turned back into her fox form, then swiftly jumped out from the back of her ice statue that had already been melted by Bing Yi before.
After that, she activated the equipment skill from the [Shadow Striders]: [Shadow sh] to teleport outside the room and instantly appeared on the blind spot of the imperial guards.
[Shadow sh: Teleport to any shadow up to 100 meters away in an instant. Cooldown: 10 minutes. ]
Tang Li Xue managed to find this blind spot thanks to her several upgraded skills that help her analyzed the situation around the room and the sharp sense of her [Extrasensory Perception]!
Tang Li Xue did all of those series of movements in an instant, and her movement was lightning fast!
Even if some imperial guards kept watching at her in the room before, they would probably not notice anything strange other than her ck cloak that pped like it was blown by the wind.
At this point, Tang Li Xue only needs to activate her [Ethereal Form] divine ability to turn herself invisible and ran out of this Cherry Blossom Spring Pce to carry out the mission given by Instructor Mei Lan to her.
¡..
After Tang Li Xue managed to escape from the room and left her identical ice statue intact while wearing all of her clothes behind, Bing Yi finally could sigh in relief.
However, Bing Yi''s relief did notst long when several imperial guards realized that the bed where she and Tang Li Xue''s ice statue sat was currently wet.
Bing Yi felt really nervous, and she quickly tidied up the ck cloak of Tang Li Xue''s ice statue to cover itself more.
Even Instructor Mei Lan was ready to make her move after she saw the reaction of several imperial guards.
Contrary to Bing Yi and Instructor Mei Lan''s expectation, the several imperial guards only sneered at them while looking at their bodies with lewd expressions.
Apparently, those imperial guards thought that Instructor Mei Lan and the others were wetting themselves out of fright and nervousness.
Both Bing Yi and Instructor Mei Lan nced at each other and sighed in relief at the same time.
As for Hei Yinghao, the captain of Imperial Guards still did not permit him to go to the toilet even after he was begging and whining.
The captain of the Imperial Guards only give a chamber pot to Hei Yinghao and told Hei Yinghao to take a crap there in front of the captain himself.
Hei Yinghao really wanted to cry right now, but he did not have any other choice other than trying to do it in order for him to not get suspected.
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue did not have any clue about the identity of the serial killer yet, nor she knew the serial killer''s motive to kill so many people, but at least, she could faintly guess the serial killer''s next target.
Just from this fact, anyone could tell that the intelligence of the current Tang Li Xue was already improved quite a lotpared to yesterday because of her several upgraded skills.
''The serial killer used so much effort to slip into Feng Empire''s Imperial Pce¡ If I am not wrong, then the serial killer''s target should have the person from the Feng Imperial Family... or even might be the entire people in Feng Imperial Family!'' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind.
''Oh well¡ there is no way for me to know what is in the serial killer''s mind without any clue or trace¡ It seems I must go to the Imperial Family''s pce. That serial killer should be there to hide while looking for a chance to kill her target!'' Tang Li Xue decided the next step she would take right now.
''But first¡ Let''s find a set of clothes to wear first¡ It is really ufortable to stay in the fox form while roaming around the Imperial Pce like this. I cannot even use my ws to grab on something properly! A set of maid''s clothes would be the best since I can even disguise myself while wearing it.'' Tang Li Xue thought while looking around to find a maid''s room.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue felt much morefortable when she was in her fox formpared to when she was in her human form.
Maybe this was all because her true form was a fox right now, and she was not a human anymore.
But using her fox form to roam around the Imperial Pce filled with humans was the same as a suicide move.
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan had told her before, her [Ethereal Form] might be really convenient to use in hiding, infiltration, and escape, but it was far from invincible.
Chapter 356: Finding the Maid Outfit!
Chapter 356: Finding the Maid Outfit!
Especially for the human cultivator at Nascent Soul Stage or the beast in Spirit Beast Level that could sense anyone in the vicinity through their soul, Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] divine ability could not hide in from the people and beasts at this level since they would immediately know her position by sensing the position of her soul.
But it did not mean that her [Ethereal Form] divine ability would bepletely useless in front of the human cultivator at Nascent Soul Stage or the beast in Spirit Beast Level!
At least, the passive ability of her [Ethereal Form] divine ability, [Conceal], would still hide her identity as a fox in human form along with her aura, trail, cultivation level, and her body scent from them.
If Tang Li Xue disguised herself as one of the maids and blended in with the other maids in this Imperial Pce, then even the human cultivator at Nascent Soul Stage or the beast in Spirit Beast Level would not be able to tell her apart from the real maids.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue faced an even bigger problem, and she needs to solve it first before she could blend in with the other maids in the Imperial Pce.
Her extremely stunning beautiful face was too eye-catching for an infiltration and investigation mission like this!
If she ran around the Imperial Pce to investigate the serial killer with her extremely beautiful face while wearing a maid outfit... just how many perverted officials would order her to clean their room then forcefully push her down on their bed?!
Just imagining how much trouble she would face was already more than enough to make Tang Li Xue trembled in fear.
''How troublesome?! I cannot even cover my face with a mask if I disguise myself as a maid. But I will surely get suspected if I roam around the Imperial Pce while wearing the other type of clothes. Oh, well... I will think about thatter! Let''s find the ce where the maid and servant live first!'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind.
Then... it did not take long for Tang Li Xue to get lost in this big Imperial pce.
There were too many ces and buildings in this big Imperial pce such as Hall of Ancestry Worship, Pottery Gallery, Treasury Gallery, Painting Gallery, Hall of Cultivation, Imperial Library, Imperial Study, Hall of Military Prowess, Hall of Literacy Exhibition, Headquarter of Imperial Guards, and so many more.
Not to mention there were so many different pces and halls for the rtive of the Imperial Family, distinguished guests, and important officials to stay.
Of course, Myriad Foxes Academy was actually much bigger than this Imperial Pce, but the previous Tang Li Xue with her Bronze Badge could only ess less than 20% of it.
Even the current Tang Li Xue with her Silver Badge could only ess about 30% or so like Battle Arena, Night Market, and so on, but she still did not have any free time to visit those ces yet.
Moreover, Myriad Foxes Academy has so many foxes in their human form or fox form walking around and shops along the street, so Tang Li Xue could just ask for the right direction from them.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue could not ask for the right direction from anyone here since she was in her fox form right now! She could not even turn back into human form for now since she would bepletely naked without any single sheet to cover her body if she turned back into a human.
''Darn it! Who the hell built this Imperial Pce?! I really want to bite them to death right now! This ce should be called Maze Pce rather than Imperial Pce! Also, where the hell all the people here?! Other than the patrolling imperial guards, I did not even see a single servant or maid passed by!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anger whileined in her mind.
After the massacre incidentst night, all the maids, servants, and butlers would need to undergo the intense identity check in their respective hall to clean them from all suspicion. This was the reason why Tang Li Xue could not find any maids, servants, and butlers passed by until now.
Tang Li Xue did not know anything about this yet, so she still tried to find some maids on her way to follow them back to their ce then steal¡ I mean to borrow their outfit to disguise herself.
Tang Li Xue roamed around the Imperial Pce aimlessly for one hour or so before shouted in frustration inside her mind: ''All right! This is enough! I would just check the random room one by one from now on! I would just wear any random woman''s clothes I find and start to investigate the Imperial Family''s Pce!''
Just when Tang Li Xue had decided to do that, her [Extrasensory Perception] suddenly detected something hiding behind the bushes on a corner of the garden.
Rustle¡ Rustle¡ Rustle¡
Tang Li Xue immediately raised her guard to the maximum and focused her [Extrasensory Perception] to where that rustling sound came from, but she still did not dare to approach it so carelessly.
''Eh?! One person? No, there are two people hiding there! Who are they?! Why are they hiding there in the daytime like this?! Don''t tell me that they are the serial killers?! To think there are two serial killers, and both of them are hiding here together!'' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind.
Tang Li Xue carefully extended her sense of [Extrasensory Perception] toward the area behind the bushes, in hope that the two serial killers failed to notice her presence.
Tang Li Xue did not hope too much.
She only wanted to see the current appearance or face of the two serial killers before swiftly escaped from here as fast as she could and reported back the information she got to Instructor Mei Lan.
But the scene behind the bushes waspletely different from what was in Tang Li Xue''s mind¡
"Ahn~!!! Is that really okay? For us doing something like this in the middle of the day?" The female voice talked with an erotic tone.
"That is all right. Almost all of the imperial guards are guarding those coward officials while all of the maids, servants, chefs, and butlers are still undergoing identity check." The male voice talked with a ragged voice.
"Ah, ah, ah¡ But I also need to undergo identity check too¡" The female said as her voice became even more seductive.
"Hehehe¡ What are you afraid of? I am the captain of the Imperial Guard right now. I only need a few words to confirm your identity. Hehehe¡ All you need to worry right now is how to satisfy my lust." The male voice replied with a lecherous tone.
"Ahn~!!! So rough!? Imperial Guard''s captain¡ you are really so lewd!" The female said while giggled in a lustful tone.
That female spoke in such a seductive way that it burned the lust of the Imperial Guard''s captain more fiercely, and then they copted with each other more passionately.
Tang Li Xue: ''¡..''
Tang Li Xue waspletely speechless right now.
The difference between the truth and what was in her mind was too far that she could not process it in a while.
After woke up from her daze and calmed down herself, Tang Li Xue started to gnash her teeth in anger and cursed those perverted two in her mind: ''Darn it! These adultery pair are really impudent! How dare they do an obscene thing like this in the broad daylight?! Scared me to death!''
''Urrrgghhh¡ This is so disturbing, especially since I see something like this using my [Extrasensory Perception]! Give me back my innocent, you darned perverted pair!'' Tang Li Xue kept cursing the perverted couple, but her expression immediately changed when she saw the female''s maid outfit hid inside the bushes.
''This is it?! Just when I need it the most right now... What great timing?!'' Tang Li Xue''s heart turned 180 degrees from anger to delight.
Tang Li Xue did not only find the female''s maid outfit but also the male''s imperial guard uniform and his armor were hidden inside the bushes near them with her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability.
Tang Li Xue thought deeply for a while, she made a n to take the maid outfit from inside the bushes without being noticed by the perverted couple.
Since Tang Li Xue could not hold anything in her [Ethereal Form] divine ability, she needs to cancel it the moment she grabbed the maid outfit.
But if she canceled her [Ethereal Form] divine ability, then she would no longer in an invisible state and anyone could see her very clearly, let alone her fox form was very eye-catching with her silky smooth shiny silver fur.
''All right, the easiest way is to distract their attention first with something!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she licked her sharp fangs and secretly activated her [Energy Maniption] to create a sharp white sword.
Of course, she did not n to kill the perverted couple without any reason. She only wanted to use this sharp white sword to cut the branch of the tree nearby to distract them for a moment.
SWIIISSSHHH~!!!
The sharp white sword turned into a white sh and easily cut the branch of a nearby tree like a piece of paper.
BRRRAAAKKK~!!!
The branch of that tree fell onto the ground and made a quite loud sound.
The perverted couple gasped in shock and immediately got down to hide in the bushes.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form] and used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to swiftly grab the maid outfit hidden in the bushes nearby in an instant.
''Oh, well¡ I may as well take the imperial guard uniform and armor to teach this adulterous couple a harsh lesson! I want to see if they will really go back to their cepletely naked!'' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind while giggled mischievously.
Tang Li Xue only need to touch all the clothes and armor, then used her equipment skill, [Shadow sh], to instantly teleported from there to another shadow.
Chapter 357: Investigation!
Chapter 357: Investigation!
Tang Li Xue appeared one hundred meters away in an instant under the tree shade with the maid outfit, imperial guard uniform, and imperial guard''s armor in front of her.
Tang Li Xue did not bring any space pouch with her right now, so she certainly could not bring all of these clothes with her.
She immediately decided to abandon the imperial guard''s armor because she could not even carry it with her mouth or pair of ws since she was still in her fox form right now.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and spat out the deep blue colored me of pride from her mouth.
She used [Fire Breath] skill to burn the imperial guard''s armor into nothingness in less than a second and quickly disperse the me of pride before it spreading and burn any other thing.
When Tang Li Xue wanted to bring the maid outfit and imperial guard uniform with her mouth to the safer ce, she suddenly groaned andined in her mind: ''Uerrrggghhh... This imperial guard uniform stinks so badly! Just how long has it been since hest washed his clothes?!''
''Here I think to keep it with me as my spare clothes... But the stink of this uniform is really too disgusting and unbearable! Sigh... It seems I will just keep the maid outfit.'' Tang Li Xue thought as she decided to burn the imperial guard uniform into nothingness with her me of pride too.
Tang Li Xue picked the maid outfit with her mouth and ran as fast as she could with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to find a safe and remote ce.
When she was in her fox form, Tang Li Xue''s overall stats were three times higher than when she was in her human form.
With her current speed, the human cultivator at the Acupuncture Opening Stage or below would not be able to see any of her movement right now.
¡..
¡
.
As the real Tang Li Xue did what she needed to do, her perfect copy did not remain idle.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still staying beside Elder Yang while carefully examined the crime scene and the dead bodies of the serial killer''s victim there.
"The several bruises from palm, fist, w, and kick¡? There are also strangle marks and the fatal wound from the sharp weapon¡ The causes of their death are so varying and strange. It looks like they killed each other rather than got killed by the serial killer." Elder Yang stated the result of his autopsy on the dead bodies in the crime scene.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not feel it was strange at all since she already knew some information about the serial killer from Instructor Mei Lan that the serial killer could use illusion-type divine abilities to confuse her enemies and could easily make her enemies kill each other.
"In my opinion, this serial killer can use some martial art or spell to confuse the victim, such as creating the illusion, mind control, or hypnosis. Since the serial killer was using indirect art like that to kill all of the victims, it will be more difficult for us to track it since we cannot find any clue or evidence. What a troublesome opponent¡" Elder Yang frowned deeply and muttered the result of his deduction.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her blue topaz eyes in surprise when she heard Elder Yang''s words.
She nced at Elder Yang in amazement and asked: "You can find out that much just from looking at the dead bodies?"
Usually, the other people would think that the victims fought with many people at once, which caused those various wounds on the victims'' dead bodies.
Elder Yang looked back at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and chuckled while replied: "There are so many things we can get from the dead bodies if we looked at them carefully. From the cultivation stage of the ones who killed them to theirst moment before their death..."
"From the state of their wounds, the cultivation stages of their killer are quite simr to them. If their enemies overwhelm them with more numbers, then they should not have made this kind of expression at theirst moment¡ Their expression right now shows disbelief and anger¡ as if they were betrayed by someone near to them. But all the victims are here, died. So, no one can betray each other. Moreover, there are no traces of other people being found here, which means..." Elder Yang started to state all the clues he got from his observation to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy dropped her jaw in shock and thought: ''The brain of this Elder Yang is so unbelievably bright! As I expected from a genius of the human race! No wonder Instructor Mei Lan always reminded me to be careful around him¡ and Instructor Mei Lan also said to find the right opportunity to kill him before he bes a nemesis for Beast Race in the future.''
While Elder Yang tried to impress Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with his deduction, the urge for killing Elder Yang hidden inside the heart of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy got thickened.
Of course, she would never do that before she managed toplete the mission to catch the serial killer and brought the serial killer back to Myriad Foxes Academy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy pondered for a few moments before decided to tell Elder Yang about something she knew to exchange it with some information from him.
"I really did not get it why do you need to do it this way¡ I think it is pretty clear that the serial killer''s target to enter Imperial Pce is to assassinate someone from the Royal Family. Why did you not just guard the Feng Royal Family and wait for the serial killer to jump out of its own?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked in confusion.
Elder Yangughed out loud after he heard the words from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and replied: "Your question is really looking down on the serial killer''s intelligence. You better not look down on this serial killer, because in fact, this serial killer is much smarter than you think."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy showed a confused expression to Elder Yang, so he could exin it more clearly to her.
Elder Yang smiled smugly and asked: "Why do you think the serial killer killed so many peoplest night?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tilted her head cutely to think, and it made Elder Yang wanted to pinch her soft-looking cheek so badly.
Elder Yang shook his head to clear his mind from distraction and exined again: "Honestly, I can already guess the serial killer''s target yesterday before the massacre incident, so I told some of the elders from my Immortal Sword Sect to guard the Feng Imperial Family earlier yesterday."
"But it seems the serial killer knew about my intention, so that serial killer deliberately massacred so many peoplest night. As if the serial killer tried to tell me: ''So what if you guard all the Feng Empire''s Imperial Family. I can still kill as many people as I want, so you better catch me soon before I kill everyst person in this Imperial City.'' Well, the serial killer''s hidden message is probably something like this¡" Elder Yang continued his exnation while approached Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"In short, that serial killer challenged me¡ or maybe even forced me to catch it first before the serial killer kills many more peopleter." Elder Yang concluded his exnation.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy became speechless after she heard Elder Yang''s exnation. She dropped her jaw and stared weirdly at Elder Yang.
''What the hell?! Is this the duel between the serial killer and a genius detective?! Oh no¡ I mean between the two geniuses! Damn! Even with all of my upgraded skills, my current level is still quite far from them!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought in admiration.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy cleared her throat to calm down herself before asked again: "Then what would you do right now? Can you really find the serial killer to stop or even catch it without any clue like this?"
Elder Yang pondered for a while before shook his head and sighed in resignation.
"This is a really thorny problem. Who knows if that serial killer might even already infiltrate between the Feng Imperial Family right now and only need to wait for me to let down my guard to finish all the people in Imperial Family in one go." Elder Yang said with a frustrated tone.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy became even more surprised when she heard Elder Yang''s words and asked again: "Eh? What?! Why do you think like that?"
Elder Yang chuckled in irony and answered: "Imperial Family has so many secrets and dirty deeds that they do not want us to know, so guarding them closely for twenty-four hours every day is impossible. It was the same forst night. It would not be strange if the serial killer already disguised as their close guards or servant while waiting for the right opportunity."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took a deep breath and stopped asking for more questions while processing the information she already got carefully in her mind.
"Let''s go! We will go to the next crime scene. I hope we can get some important clues this time." Elder Yang smiled at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and led her toward the direction of the next crime scene.
Chapter 358: Battle of Wits!
Chapter 358: Battle of Wits!
.....
...
.
The real Tang Li Xue also got all of the information that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy managed to get from Elder Yang.
She started to contemte all the information she got carefully to devise her next n while still looking at a safe and remote ce to get changed.
Of course, she also did not want to get changed in the open space like in the garden or behind the building. That was the reason why Tang Li Xue was still looking for an empty room until now.
She could also build a small empty room with her [Energy Maniption] if she wanted to, but it would be too eye-catching since Tang Li Xue would usually use her moon energy to create something with her [Energy Maniption], and her every creation usually have the faint shiny white color like the moon.
Tang Li Xue could also use the energy from her me of Pride to create something with her [Energy Maniption], but it would be even more conspicuous with the bright deep-blue color, just like her me of Pride.
''All right! Let''s sum up all the information my perfect copy get while looking for a remote empty room.'' Tang Li Xue thought while sprinting so fast with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
Every time she passed by the patrolling guards or the gatekeepers, no one could see her figure at all, so all of those guards only thought that she was only a passing wind.
''First, the serial killer might be already disguised herself and blend amid the Feng Imperial Family or the people close to them while waiting for the right opportunity to strike.''
''Second, several powerful Elders from Immortal Sword Sect are currently still guarding the Feng Imperial Family, which make even the serial killer wary of them and do not dare to do anything recklessly.''
''Third, the serial killer deliberately killed so many peoplest night to force Elder Yang to make his move first. The serial killer is clearly waiting for Elder Yang to take his people to catch a wrong target. At that time, the guards around the Feng Imperial Family would be thinning a lot, and it would be the right time for the serial killer to finish off her target.''
Tang Li Xue became quite proud of herself when she could deduce everything until this far.
But then her expression turned really urgent as a terrifying revtion suddenly shed in her mind.
''Wait a minute... There is something strange here... Why the hell the serial killer only made her move and started to kill so many people in Imperial Pce AFTER Instructor Lan, me, and the others came here?! I am sure the thunderstormst night was not the reason, right?''
''Don''t tell me...?! Holysh*t! That serial killer deliberately did that to implicate us into this mess?! And also... that sly Elder Yang might be already got suspicious of us too, that was the reason why he let those imperial guards detain us in our room!''
''What a cunning fox?! Uh..... I mean a cunning human. He should have been able to help Instructor Lan, me, and the others just like how he helped my perfect copy to clear all the suspicions with only a few words. Those officials and imperial guards definitely would not dare to oppose him anyway. But he did not do it, and it was already more than enough to show his suspicions to us!''
''No... Even all of those might be only his excuse! Maybe the imperial guards detain us in our room under the direct order of Elder Yang himself! Tsk, tsk, tsk... What an evil scheming man!''
After she thought of that, Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anger and cursed Elder Yang many more times in her heart.
After running around for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue finally found an empty room somewhere deste.
This ce was called the Hall of Purity and Tranquility. It seems like this ce was used to exile some guilty younger generations for some time, so they could calm down and carefully ponder the mistakes they had already made here.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not know or care about something like that. She immediately picked one of the empty rooms there and entered it while brought the maid outfit with her mouth.
Even though Tang Li Xue already made sure that there was no one else here other than her with [Extrasensory Perception], but she still felt a bit insecure, so she decided to create ayer of the cover wall around her with [Energy Maniption].
Tang Li Xue activated her iplete divine ability [Transfiguration: Human Form] again to turn back from her fox form into her human form.
The rustling sound of cloth could be heard very clearly in the empty room when Tang Li Xue started to put on the maid outfit.
"This is so ufortable... There is no underwear here, and the size of this maid outfit is really big! Just how fat is the owner of this outfit?! It is so loose when I put it on..." Tang Li Xue frowned whileined softly in disappointment.
All of the maids in this Imperial Pce were already going through strict selection before, so all of the maids here actually had proportional figures and not fat or ugly at all.
The reason for that was because the maids in this Imperial Pce also have the obligation to satisfy the passion of the guests, officials, and their higher-ups to make all of them contented living here.
There were even some of the maids here who were lucky enough to be brought home by the important guests or officials and be appointed as the concubines by them.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not know any about these things. If she knew it, she would probably refuse to disguise herself as a maid right now.
The height of the maid who wore the maid outfit before was definitely more than 170 cm, and her figure was also a bit plump with a quite good curve.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s height was only a little bit taller than 150 cm with an ideal slender figure.
So, it was not strange at all when Tang Li Xue wore the maid outfit, it looked baggy and loose-fitting.
Although, the maid outfit still looked really good on her more than her usual clothes, since she looked more charming and seductive when she was wearing it.
But Tang Li Xue clearly did not like it that way because she wanted to look ordinary and inconspicuous when wearing it, so she could blend in easily with the other maids.
Moreover, she showed a bit of her jade-like white skin when she was wearing this maid outfit because of how oversized it was, especially on the part of her shoulder.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply in dissatisfaction after she tried to wear the maid outfit.
She waved her hand and used her [Energy Maniption] to create a full-body mirror in front of her.
Tang Li Xue looked at the reflection of herself on the white mirror and clicked her tongue in amazement.
"No matter how many times I see my own reflection, I still cannot stop myself but be fascinated by my own beauty." Tang Li Xue murmured to herself while putting on a seductive pose and a dazzling smile on her stunningly beautiful face.
Compared to her extremely pitiful skinny and sickly appearance in her previous life, the difference was too vast like heaven and earth.
Tang Li Xue almost wanted to cry when she remembered about it again.
Unfortunately, the person she wanted to share and brag about this fact the most, her big brother, was not here with her in this Immortal World.
"I am really satisfied with my current wless looks¡ except for one thing¡" Tang Li Xue murmured again while staring at her reflection''s chest on the mirror in displeasure.
Her barely C-Cup pair of breasts was really an eyesore in Tang Li Xue''s eyes.
However, Tang Li Xue did not have any time to think about how to fix that right now since she was still busy thinking about other things.
There were too many things she needs to hide if she wanted to disguise as a maid, blend in with the other maids, and infiltrate the Imperial Family''s personal pce.
Her furry silvery-white foxtail, her cute-looking pair of fox ears, her mesmerizing pair of topaz blue eyes, her long silky smooth shiny silver hair, her bewitching pink lips, and her stunningly beautiful face¡ Even her jade-like snow-white skin looked really captivating and could easily attract anyone''s eyes.
Tang Li Xue pursed her lips and said: "Aren''t there a bit too much to hide? The heck, it seems impossible to hide everything! Sigh... What should I do now? Now I know why Instructor Mei Lan wanted us to wear the long ck cloak and ck hood."
"Oh, right¡ I do not even have a pair of shoes to wear right now." Tang Li Xue murmured as she put her slender finger on her chin to think.
With the help of her several upgraded skills, Tang Li Xue''s mind was thinking really fast, and she started devising some ns in her mind.
Unfortunately, herck of knowledge and experience restricted her ability to think and make proper ns. That was the main biggest difference between her and the sharp-minded people like Instructor Mei Lan, the serial killer, Elder Yang, and Mo Chonglin.
"Should I just imitate Instructor Lan''s n in Lin Family''s residence and seduce an Imperial Family member to bring me into his ce? No, I can''t. That n is too risky and reckless. Besides that, Instructor Lan''s situation at that time ispletely different from me right now." Tang Li Xue pondered her next move carefully.
Chapter 359: Asking For Assistance!
Chapter 359: Asking For Assistance!
"How about disguising as one of the imperial guards to infiltrate there?" Tang Li Xue murmured, but she quickly shook her head to deny the idea.
"Even imperial guards probably could not approach Imperial Family''s Pce for now, since only the trusted guards, maids, or servants of Imperial Family could enter there right now."? Tang Li Xue said while she bit her pink lips in frustration.
Tang Li Xue kept thinking about a precise way to enter the Imperial Family''s Pce while waved her hand to disperse the full-body mirror and ayer of the cover wall around her that she created from her [Energy Maniption] divine ability before.
Tang Li Xue narrowed her topaz blue eyes and thought: ''It seems it would be hard for me to infiltrate the Imperial Family''s Pce without anyone''s assistance, but that should not be a big problem for my perfect copy.''
''Furthermore, my perfect copy looks quite close already to Elder Yang right now, and that Elder Yang also seems to fawn on her a lot. Luckily, I have already escaped from the imperial guards'' custody, so the range restriction between me and my perfect copy is no longer a problem.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
''Perfect copy, I can only be counting on you to do it in my ce. I do not care if you must seducing, ttering, or coaxing that Elder Yang first for now. You should definitely ask him to help you enter Imperial Family''s Pce so you can look for the serial killerter!'' Tang Li Xue thought while told her perfect copy of what she must do right now.
The real Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy was one being and one soul, but with two bodies and two minds, so her perfect copy knew in an instant what the real Tang Li Xue was currently thinking even though they were quite far from each other right now.
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, who was currently still chatting happily with Elder Yang, suddenly froze when she caught what the real Tang Li Xue was thinking right now.
"Chou Nu (Ugly Girl)? Are you all right? Your face looks a bit pale. If you feel tired or sick, then I can bring you to take a rest at the nearby pavilion." Elder Yang asked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a worried tone.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy smiled at Elder Yang and said with to reassure him: "I am all right. It is just that I am a bit under the weather today. But you do not need to worry. I will be okay after drinking a few cups of teater. And also, please never call me Chou Nu ever again!"
Elder Yang chuckled and replied with a yful tone: "Why not? You are the one who says your name is Chou Nu! So I will always call you that from now on! Chou Nu~! Chou Nu~! Why are you so unsightly (Chou)?!"
The pink lips of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy twitched as she stared at Elder Yang in anger and annoyance.
In the end, she decided to walk faster and ignored Elder Yang.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also took this brief moment toin to the real Tang Li Xue and sent her thought: ''Are you kidding with me?! That is the mission given by Instructor Lan to you! Why the hell must I do that for you?! You can just swap ce with me and do that by yourself!''
The real Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied by thinking: ''My perfect copy, do you forget about the current outfit I am wearing right now? The incident with Instructor Lan before should be a lesson for us. We should not rely too much on our [Swap] skill, especially when we are wearing different masks or clothes unless we are facing some life-threatening issues.''
The outfit of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy always identical to the real Tang Li Xue when she first summoned it out, so if the real Tang Li Xue unsummoned her perfect copy and summoned her out again right now, then her perfect copy would wear the maid outfit too just like her right now.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was actually also aware of that, but she just did not want to beg Elder Yang to help her enter Imperial Family''s Pce. Who knew if this cunning man would ckmail her againter when she asked him to do that, just like before.
The real Tang Li Xue send her thought again to her perfect copy: ''I know what you are thinking, but we do not have any other choice for now since we really need his assistance. However, you do not have to worry too much about it. I would prepare another backup n in case if Elder Yang refused to fulfill your request to enter Imperial Family''s Pce.''
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gasped in shock and disbelief when she read what was in the real Tang Li Xue''s mind and muttered in her mind: ''You nned to seduce¡ Err¡ I mean asking for help from that core disciple Ye Zhen?! Isn''t his position a bit too low to help you with that? Are you sure he can really help you?''
Real Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and replied with a gloomy expression: ''We only familiar with two people here, Elder Yang and Ye Zhen. Who else are we going to ask for help other than these two people? The emperor of Feng Empire himself? Sigh¡ I can only hope anyone of them can help us to enter Imperial Family''s Pce. But we still must find the serial killer first before them and report back to Instructor Lan.''
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nodded her head sympathetically andforted her real self: ''Instructor Lan really gave us a really hard mission this time. But try to look at the bright side, the quest we get from the system is also set in Hard Difficulty because of that, and we will get a pretty good reward if we manage toplete it, right?''
''All right, let''s stop our discussion here and begin to do our own part from now on. I hope we are quite lucky this time.'' The real Tang Li Xue prayed in her heart.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still walking hastily in a daze, Elder Yang suddenly called her from behind and said: "Uh¡ Chou Nu, you are heading in the wrong direction. We should be heading this way."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "¡.."
She suddenly halted her step and turned back to re at Elder Yang while said in an angry tone: "You are doing it on purpose, aren''t you?!"
Elder Yang chuckled at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and replied: "Chou Nu, why do you always want to walk so quickly in front of me if you do not even know the ce we are heading to? You do not even know the direction! And now you even me me for showing the right direction to you?"
"I¡ I..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could not rebuke Elder Yang''s words.
"How about this? I will let you lead the way in front of me from now on, and I will just follow you quietly from behind. Would you be satisfied with this?" Elder Yang said again with a mischievous smile on his face.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy bit her pink lips in annoyance, but she admitted it that she could not win in any argument against this Elder Yang, so she could only make ame excuse to dodge it: "It is because you are walking too slow! The sky would turn dark soon if I keep following you dilly-dally around."
Elder Yangughed at the reply from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, and he kept teasing her again and again.
The helpless Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only swallow her annoyance since she always lost to Elder Yang in argue.
¡..
¡
.
The real Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw that the rtionship between her perfect copy and Elder Yang seemed pretty close already.
There was at least about sixty to seventy percent chance of sess if her perfect copy asked Elder Yang to bring her into Imperial Family''s Pce right now.
Tang Li Xue wanted to use her [Ethereal Form] divine ability, but before she could activate it, she managed to see a folded grey-colored nket on the bed beside her.
Tang Li Xue took that grey-colored nket to wrap her body like a cloak to cover her furry silver fox tail and a pair of fox ears on the top of her head.
''Not bad! At least, it can help me cover my fox tail and fox ears for now. No one can probably see me when I activated my [Ethereal Form] divine ability, but I certainly cannot meet that Ye Zhen in my [Ethereal Form], right?'' Tang Li Xue thought while nodded in satisfaction.
After that, Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure turned invisible in an instant.
She easily passed through all the building''s wall with her [Ethereal Form] and went out from the Hall of Purity and Tranquility.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue got lost again inside this vast Imperial Pce when she was looking for Ye Zhen''s whereabouts.
It was true that Tang Li Xue has Mastered level [Mapping Sense] skill, but this was the first time she ever entered and roaming around this vast Imperial Pce, so it was not strange that she could easily get lost here.
''Oh, right! I almost forget to use this [Mapping Sense] special skill and leave a tracking mark on that Elder Yang, so I can easily keep on track of his every movementter! My perfect copy, I will leave this task to you too!'' Tang Li Xue thought while she kept sprinting so fast with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only roll her eyes in annoyance when she received that thought.
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did notin and decided to carry it out soon since leaving a tracking mark on someone important like Elder Yang to monitor his every movement was a must.
Chapter 360: Sudden Dangerous Situation!
Chapter 360: Sudden Dangerous Situation!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy made it as if she identally bumped her hand on Elder Yang''s hand and left the tracking mark on his hand.
Elder Yang immediately realized the sudden strange move of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but he did not think too much about it and teasing her instead because of it.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue finally managed to spot Ye Zhen from afar after a few hours of searching all around the ce in Imperial Pce.
Ye Zhen was currently escorting the Crown Prince along with several other Core Disciples of Immortal Sword Sect.
Yes, you did not hear or read it wrong... they were really currently escorting the Crown Prince!
It was a really hair-raising matter, but neither Tang Li Xue nor Ye Zhen and the other people knew that the Crown Prince actually had already died sincest night.
Tang Li Xue immediately waved her palm on her face and used her [Energy Maniption] divine ability to create a simr fox mask with the one that her perfect copy wore to cover her face.
After making sure that her foxtail and fox ears were well covered by the grey-colored nket like wearing a cloak and hood for a few moments, it was only then Tang Li Xue decided to approach Ye Zhen''s group.
Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form] so everyone could see clearly her figure again before she ran toward Ye Zhen and his group.
But suddenly, an enormous pressure pressed onto Tang Li Xue''s body without any warning, made her could not move and suffocating.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth to withstand it but the enormous pressure kept pressing her body with the intention to crush her into a bloody pulp.
''Damn it! Who the hell dare to attack me so suddenly in the Imperial Pce''s ground?!'' Tang Li Xue thought angrily as her mind started to think fast about how to get out of this perilous situation.
The figure of an old man wearing an elegant-looking purple robe suddenly shed in front of Tang Li Xue.
That old man swiftly reached his hand toward Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue knew in an instant that this old man did not have any good intention toward her, so she immediately activated the equipment skill from the [Shadow Striders]: [Shadow sh] to teleport toward the shadow near Ye Zhen.
From the old man''s purple outfit, Tang Li Xue could already guess the real identity of this old man in an instant.
The elder of Immortal Sword Sect!
This old man must be the one tasked to protect the crown prince''s safety from the serial killer!
"Young Master Ye, help me!" Tang Li Xue shouted to Ye Zhen in the hope for him to exin to the old man that she was not their enemy.
Ye Zhen turned around to look at the one called his name, and he was very surprised to find that Tang Li Xue already stood so near without him realizing it.
"Young Miss Xiao?!" Ye Zhen smiled and called back with a delighted tone.
Tang Li Xue ran swiftly to Ye Zhen and quickly hid behind him before the old man could attack her again like before.
Ye Zhen instantly realized why Tang Li Xue hid behind him when he saw the old man approached him.
Ye Zhen greeted the old man and exined: "Core Disciple Ye Zhen greets Elder Wu! I am sorry, Elder Wu, but Young Miss Xiao is my close friend. If she makes some troubles and offends you, then I will apologize to you in her ce."
The old man frowned deeply. He felt really humiliated right now because a mere young girl like Tang Li Xue could escape from the grasp of a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator like him.
"Is she really your close friend?" The old man asked. He actually wanted to teach this little girl a lesson, but he did not want to offend Elder Yang''s disciple because of it.
"That is right. She is also Elder Yang''s friend." Ye Zhen said. He even deliberately mentioned his master''s name, so Elder Wu could let go of his grievance to Tang Li Xue.
Just like what Ye Zhen had expected Elder Wu chose to retreat after he said Elder Yang''s name.
"Oh, so this young miss is the friend of Disciple Ye and Elder Yang! Young miss, you might be Elder Yang''s admirer and want to wear a mask to imitate him, but you better not do it in Imperial pce, especially when we are still under the threat of a hidden serial killer." Elder Wu warned Tang Li Xue before shed and disappear from everyone''s view again, just like before.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and thought: ''That was really close! I almost got killed by that old man! Nascent Soul Stage Expert is so scary!''
But Tang Li Xue could finally gauge her current strengthpared to the human cultivator after this encounter.
She did not have any chance of winning if she was fighting one on one against Core Formation Stage Cultivator without any help.
She has a more or less forty percent chance of winning if she entered [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya.
If she entered [War Goddess Mode] with Yaya and Phoenix of Pride, then she would have a high chance of winning!
But she would not even have any chance of winning against Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, even if she entered [War Goddess Mode] with Yaya and Phoenix of Pride!
Of course, this was only crude spection because some genius rank of the human cultivators like Elder Yang could easily fight the people with much higher cultivation than themselves.
Moreover, after Elder Yang managed to obtain one of Seven Earthly Desire Spirits, Blood of Lust, his battle prowess soared again to an unimaginable level than before.
''I wonder if Instructor Mei Lan can win against Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator in one on one battle?'' Tang Li Xue curiously thought in her mind.
"Young Master Ye, thank you very much for your help! Sigh... I almost got killed in an instant by that elder before." Tang Li Xue said while smiled at Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen''s mouth twitched violently when he paid more attention to Tang Li Xue and watched her from the head to toe.
Now, he knew why Elder Wu suddenly attacked Tang Li Xue without any warning before... The problem was actually not only on her wearing a mask, wasn''t it?!
Even Crown Prince Feng and the other core disciples kept staring at Tang Li Xue with strange gazes right now.
Not only she barefooted right now without wearing any shoes, but she also wore an oversized maid outfit and cover herself with a grey-colored nket. (The length of outfit from more than 170cm tall maid was clearly too long for the 150cm Tang Li Xue, so anyone could see it from her feet.)
Tang Li Xue felt really embarrassed by their stares and quickly exined while blushed: "Uhh... I am sorry for my inappropriate appearance. I... identally fell into the pond before and drenched my clothes, so I have no other choice than to borrow the clothes from the maid and appear like this."
"Huh, really? I think you had just slept with a man and got your clothes stolen by someone, right?!" A girl from the core disciple''s group mocked Tang Li Xue with a scornful tone while sneering scornfully.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue almost slipped and fell in surprise when she heard the girl''s random mocking words.
''Are you a seer or something?! How could you guessed it so precisely?!'' Tang Li Xue screamed in her mind.
Well, except that she was the one who stole it from the others in that situation...
Ye Zhen frowned in displeasure and rebuked her: "Junior Martial Sister Jian! That is not something that a girl like you should mention! Please maintain your image as the core disciple of Immortal Sword Sect in front of others!"
"Humph! So what?! Senior Martial Brother Ye! I just mentioned the truth in front of everyone, so no one will not get seduced by an immoral vixen like her!" Junior Martial Sister Jian shouted back at Ye Zhen in aggravation.
Tang Li Xue felt her heart almost jumped out of her throat when the girl called her a vixen.
''Girl... are you really sure that you are not a seer or diviner?! How the hell almost all of your words are correct?! Maybe I should really find a way to get rid of her before anyone realized her talent as a seer?'' Tang Li Xue screamed again in her mind.
"Junior Martial Sister Jian! That is enough! If you still embarrass yourself like this, I will not let you follow me around anymore after this!" Ye Zhen said to his Junior Martial Sister with a cold and angry tone.
Junior Martial Sister Jian did not dare to say anything anymore. She could only gnash her teeth in anger and red venomously at Tang Li Xue.
''Hey, hey, hey! I do not even say anything to you yet, right?! Why do you re at me like that?! You should get angry at your Senior Brother Ye, not me!'' Tang Li Xue thought, but she acted as if she did not notice Junior Martial Sister Jian and looked at Crown Prince Feng instead.
Crown Prince Feng immediately noticed that Tang Li Xue nced at him, so he looked at Tang Li Xue too and nodded while smiling to greet her.
Even Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability failed to sense anything strange on Crown Prince Feng, but somehow Tang Li Xue could still perceive that Crown Prince Feng seemed to behave differently from yesterday.
Chapter 361: Teach A Lesson!
Chapter 361: Teach A Lesson!
''Somehow, I feel that his temperament is... changed from yesterday?'' Tang Li Xue thought in surprise.
Crown Prince Feng might seem open-minded and have a good temperament yesterday, but Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] could still faintly sense that Crown Prince Feng only did so in front of Elder Yang to get a good impression.
Crown Prince Feng''s true nature was far from what he showed to Elder Yang.
However, Crown Prince Feng let out a gentler and kinder aura today, and it made him seem much more approachable.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and decided to not think too much about it. She only met Crown Prince Feng twice since yesterday after all, so it made sense that she could not judge Crown Prince Feng''s true nature really clearly.
Ye Zhen approached Crown Prince Feng and asked Tang Li Xue''s behalf: "Crown Prince Feng, please forgive for my insolence, but can you please help Young Miss Xiao to find a pair of clothes that matched her size?"
Tang Li Xue was taken aback by Ye Zhen''s sudden request and immediately tried to refuse it: "No need. I... am quitefortable in these clothes, so you all do not need to worry about it."
The expressions of Ye Zhen and Crown Prince Feng turned weird in that instant, and they stared pitifully at Tang Li Xue, while Junior Sister Jian sneered and stared even more mockingly at Tang Li Xue.
Even the other core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect also stared pitifully at Tang Li Xue.
"What? Why do you all staring at me like that?" Tang Li Xue innocently asked them.
Ye Zhen patted Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and said: "Young Miss Xiao, your life must be really difficult and harsh all this time until you can even say that these clothesfortable."
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched, and she almost blurted out: ''What do you mean my life is difficult and harsh?! Uhh... Wait... Okay... my life is really difficult and harsh until now... But I am far from poor, okay?! I am far richer than any of you! Do any of you even have one mid-tier spirit stone with you right now? Nope, right?! I... All right, I also do not have it with me right now... but I have several of it in my space pouch!''
Crown Prince Feng also said to Tang Li Xue with aforting tone: "Young Miss Xiao, we have many spare martial art clothes in Equipment Hall. You can take as many martial art clothes as you like there, and you do not need to pay any of it."
"No, it cannot be like that. How could she not pay for it?! If any random women can take as many clothes as they want, then the spare clothes in Imperial Pce will be empty in no time!" Junior Sister Jian said her disagreement.
Ye Zhen almost facepalmed in shame when he heard his Junior Sister Jian said that.
Even Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes in this? Junior Sister Jian''s idiocy and thought: ''Little Girl, did you just curse Feng Empire to go bankrupt?! Also, how many people do you think can enter Imperial Pce like us? You are clearly thinking too much about it!''
In the end, Ye Zhen was the one who apologized to Tang Li Xue and Crown Prince Feng for the impolite words of his Junior Sister Jian. He even offered to pay for it on Tang Li Xue''s behalf, but Crown Prince Feng immediately rejected it.
All of them chatted while heading together to Equipment Hall, but Junior Sister Jian kept staring venomously at Tang Li Xue.
Of course, Tang Li Xue, with her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability, could easily sense that Junior Sister Jian''s stare that filled with jealously, resentment, and anger.
Tang Li Xue felt as if her skin was pricked by her stare, and It made Tang Li Xue felt really ufortable, but she could not do anything, so she could only decide to ignore it.
On their way, Tang Li Xue chatted happily with Ye Zhen and some core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect, but Crown Prince Feng only listened to them closely.
It did not take long for all of them to reach Equipment Hall.
Just like its name, Equipment Hall did not only store spare martial art clothes, but also many kinds of weapons and various kinds of armor.
It was not an armory, but more like an exhibition room to disy many kinds of weapons and various kinds of armor.
Crown Prince Feng ordered several maids there to look for the martial art clothes at Tang Li Xue''s size and helped Tang Li Xue to try them in an empty room.
The maids immediately led Tang Li Xue to the empty room to measure her size before looking for the right-sized clothes for her.
As someone really poor in her previous life, Tang Li Xue a bit fascinated when she saw the maids brought several beautiful looking martial art clothes for her to try.
It was true that Myriad Foxes Academy has more advanced civilization, but the fashion there seems too in since Fox Race never think to develop it.
"Wait, what do you want to do?" Tang Li Xue vigntly asked when the maids approached her and pulled the nket that covered her body.
"Your highness told us to help you to try the martial art clothes, so we..." One of the maids exined to Tang Li Xue.
But Tang Li Xue immediately cut her words and said: "There is no need for that. I can get changed by myself. You all can go out now."
''Help me try the clothes?! What about my foxtail and fox ears?! You must be joking! There is no way I can let them see it!'' Tang Li Xue said in her mind.
All the maids looked very troubled after they heard Tang Li Xue''s reply.
"You do not need to worry too much. I will say to Crown Prince Fengter that I am notfortable letting the others help me get changed, so it is not your fault." Tang Li Xue reassured them.
All the maids still looked unconvinced, but they could not force Tang Li Xue, so they did not have any other choice than listened to Tang Li Xue''s words.
Just when all the maids almost got out of the room, Tang Li Xue called them again: "Wait!"
All the maids thought that Tang Li Xue changed her mind, so they looked hopeful at her.
"Err... Do you have underwear or undergarment in my size too? Oh, a cloak and a hat too?" Tang Li Xue asked all the maids while blushed hard.
All the maids felt disappointed again, but they still fulfilled Tang Li Xue''s request and looked for it.
It took ten minutes longer for all the maids this time to find what Tang Li Xue wants.
After receiving all of it from the maids, Tang Li Xue drove all of the maids out of the room and locked the door from inside.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and started to undress only after she made sure that no one peeking at her with her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability.
Several beautiful martial art clothes at her size were already prepared by the maids for her, so Tang Li Xue only needs to pick anyone she liked.
Tang Li Xue chose the light blue colored one and swiftly changed her maid outfit into that light blue colored martial art clothes.
There was already a full-body mirror prepared inside the room, so Tang Li Xue did not need to create it with her [Energy Maniption] again like before.
''Hmm... Not bad! Actually, It looks really good, especially because I am the one that wearing it! But this underwear, undergarment, and clothes feel ufortable. It feelspletely different with the clothes created by the silver badge from Myriad Foxes Academy.'' Tang Li Xueined a bit.
Yes, the clothes in Myriad Foxes Academy looked really in since they did not bother about fashion, but they developed more about practical value likefort, disguise, protection, cold-proof, fireproof, and so on.
There were two types of hats given by the maids to Tang Li Xue, Chinese Veiled Hat and Fur Hat.
Tang Li Xue already wore a fox mask, so she decided to choose Fur Hat.
When she wore the Fur Hat, it perfectly covered her pair of furry fox ears, so no one could see her fox ear without pulling out the Fur Hat first.
But Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she saw the cloak prepared by the maid.
It was actually a short cloak, so it could not cover her foxtail.
''Should I just wear the nket again to cover my foxtail? No... It will only make the other suspicious to me...'' Tang Li Xue pondered carefully.
After thinking for a while, Tang Li Xue picked up the skirt from several other martial art clothes and wore it to cover her foxtail.
In the end, Tang Li Xue wore threeyers of skirt to cover her foxtail and to not make it stand out.
After making sure that her fox ears and foxtail were covered really well, Tang Li Xue finally decided to unlock the door and went out of the room to meet with Ye Zhen and his group.
When Ye Zhen and the other core disciples saw Tang Li Xue''s current appearance, they werepletely blown away and speechless for a while in awe.
Although Tang Li Xue still wore her fox mask to cover her face, but without a thick nket or ck cloak to cover her smooth jade-like white skin and long silky shiny silver hair, her hidden beauty was clear for anyone to see right now.
Only two people here did not feel happy at Tang Li Xue''s current stunning appearance right now.
The first person was Ye Zhen. He felt his heart was really ufortable when all the men here ogled Tang Li Xue''s stunning looks like this.
The second person was obviously Junior Sister Jian. Usually, she was the most doted girl in this group of core disciples, and everyone was fawning over her because of her beauty.
But right now, Tang Li Xue took her ce and attracted everyone''s attention just like that!
How could someone prideful Junior Martial Sister Jian epted being overshadowed by a nobody like Tang Li Xue?!
Junior Martial Sister Jian already secretly made a n in her mind to teach Tang Li Xue a harsh lesson and embarrass her in front of all the people.
Chapter 362: Hidden Evil Intention!
Chapter 362: Hidden Evil Intention!
While the other people were still stunned silly by her stunning looks, Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] also managed to detect the reaction of two people that was out of her expectation.
The first one was Ye Zhen. Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] somehow detected a glint of passion, unwillingness, and jealousy mixed in Ye Zhen''s eyes.
Since there were so many of Ye Zhen''s feelings mixed together, the clueless Tang Li Xue could only perceive his unhappiness.
Tang Li Xue really did not get why Ye Zhen felt unhappy about her, but she did not think much about it.
The second one was Crown Prince Feng.
Although Crown Prince Feng put on a pretense as if he was also fascinated by her stunning looks, but Tang Li Xue with her sharp [Extrasensory Perception], could feel disdain feeling hidden inside Crown Prince Feng''s heart.
''Weird¡ Is this Crown Prince Feng gay or something? Wait a minute! That Ye Zhen also felt unhappy with me when he saw my beautiful appearance¡ Don''t say he behaved like that because he was afraid that Crown Prince Feng would be attracted to me?! Tsk, tsk, tsk... So these two already have THAT kind of rtionship, and it was already developed that far!'' Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise as her own delusion ran wild.
"Young Miss Xiao, you are so beautiful in that clothes! We are quite sure that your face should be very beautiful too. But it makes us wonder why do you cover your face with that fox mask?" One of the male core disciples approached Tang Li Xue and asked with a curious tone.
"That is right! Why do you need to cover your face with that mask? It only makes us more curious! Why don''t you take this opportunity to unt your beautiful face to us and open our eyes? Right, guys?!" The other male core disciple said, followed by the loud cheers of all the male core disciples.
"Open the mask!"
"Yeah, show your face to us!"
¡..
All the male core disciples repeatedly cheered loudly for Tang Li Xue to open her fox mask in front of them.
"No, I¡" Tang Li Xue wanted to reject the request from all the male core disciples, but Ye Zhen already made his move to stop them first before Tang Li Xue could finish her words.
"Stop it, all of you! What all of you are doing right now will only make Young Miss Xiao feel ufortable! There must be someplex reasons why Young Miss Xiao wore that mask to cover her face, so all of you must never force her like that." Ye Zhen rebuked his fellow core disciples with a stern tone.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, and she smiled sweetly while nodded at Ye Zhen to thank him.
Ye Zhen also smiled and nodded back at Tang Li Xue.
Ye Zhen felt quite satisfied since he was probably the only one that ever saw Tang Li Xue''s true appearance behind her fox mask before.
It made him felt that he have some special rtionship with Tang Li Xue because of it, so how could he let these fellow core disciples forced Tang Li Xue to open her mask in front of them.
"Crown Prince Feng, thank you very much for these clothes." Tang Li Xue said while smiled at Crown Prince Feng.
Crown Prince Feng waved his hand and replied: "It''s alright, don''t think too much about it. No one whoes here will touch the spare clothes anyway unless their own clothes are drenched with sweat or rainwater. You can even take a few more pairs of clothes if you want."
"No, thank you. These clothes are already more than enough. Oh, right ... Where will we be going right now?" Tang Li Xue rejected Crown Prince Feng''s offer and asked Ye Zhen about their destination ce.
"We are heading to the crime scene to meet with Elder Yang." Ye Zhen casually answered Tang Li Xue''s question.
Tang Li Xue almost slipped and fell when she heard Ye Zhen''s reply.
She was searching for this Ye Zhen for so long previously, but he and his group actually wanted to meet with Elder Yang right now.
Moreover, her perfect copy was currently still walking together with Elder Yang.
It would not be funny if Ye Zhen and his group brought the real Tang Li Xue to meet with her own perfect copy and Elder Yang!
All of them would definitely think that the serial killer was actually disguised herself between Tang Li Xue or her perfect copy.
Anyway, the oue was clearly not what Tang Li Xue wanted!
''Darn it! What should I do now? Should I just say some random excuse and separate myself from them?'' Tang Li Xue''s mind was currently thinking harder and faster to find the way out from this awkward situation.
"Let''s go! It is not good to keep Elder Yang waiting for us too long. We may even get punished by himter!" Ye Zhen urged all the people here.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth, but she still decided to follow them from behind while kept thinking a way out.
Just when all of them exited from Equipment Hall together, Junior Martial Sister Jian suddenly approached Tang Li Xue from behind in secret while taking out a thin but sharp needle.
With her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue could perceive everyone''s movement very clearly, so she immediately realized that this Sister Jian clearly did not have any good intention toward her and wanted to do something to harm her.
Tang Li Xue could just shout to call help to stop Sister Jian from harming her, but in that instant, Tang Li Xue suddenly get a n to use this Sister Jian to stop their group from meeting with Elder Yang.
Tang Li Xue snickered mischievously as she let Sister Jian did what she wanted to do for now.
Sister Jian pretended as if she identally bumped lightly into Tang Li Xue as she chased after Ye Zhen from behind. At the same time as that, she tried to poke Tang Li Xue with that thin and sharp silver needle.
Tang Li Xue did not know what was wrong with this thin and sharp silver needle or if that needle was poisoned or not.
Although Tang Li Xue herself immune to any poison thanks to her [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline, but she still clearly did not want to use her body to try the effect of that needle.
Tang Li Xue secretly activated her [Energy Maniption] to create a small soft te under her sleeve to resist the needle.
Puff¡
The sharp and thin silver needle prated the small soft te easily under Tang Li Xue''s sleeve, and Sister Jian smiled coldly in satisfaction when she felt her silver needle managed to prate something soft like Tang Li Xue''s skin.
Sister Jian secretly stored back the needle into her spatial ring, then she pretended to chase after Ye Zhen and talked cheerfully with him.
But Ye Zhen seems not that interested in talking with his Junior Martial Sister Jian and only casually replied with one or two words.
On contrary, Ye Zhen seems very interested in talking with Tang Li Xue and asked her so many things.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s mind was too preupied right now, so she only answered Ye Zhen''s questions by saying ''Oh'', ''I see'', ''Maybe'', ''Take guess'', and so on.
Tang Li Xue intentionally slowed down her step, so Ye Zhen, Sister Jian, Crown Prince Feng, and the others walked in front of her, then she used this opportunity to check at the small soft te easily under her sleeve.
''Just like what I have guessed before, that Jian girl is really smear something on that sharp needle of hers. I wonder what is the effect of this transparent liquid that sticks on this te? Let''s see it now!'' Tang Li Xue licked her pinkish lips in curiosity.
Tang Li Xue sneered mischievously as she used her [Energy Maniption] divine ability to reshape the small soft te form onto an identical thin and sharp needle, just like what that Junior Martial Sister Jian tried to use to poke Tang Li Xue before. But the color of Tang Li Xue''s needle was white, not silver like Martial Sister Jian has.
Tang Li Xue hastened her step to chase after Junior Martial Sister Jian and Ye Zhen from behind.
She also made sure that her distance was still quite far from Crown Prince Feng since she did not want what she was doing right now to identally attract the attention of the Nascent Soul Stage Elder, who was currently guarding Crown Prince Feng.
When Tang Li Xue was close enough with Junior Martial Sister Jian and Ye Zhen, Tang Li Xue decided to throw her thin and sharp white needle to Junior Martial Sister Jian from beside her.
With a single flick of her index finger, the sharp white needle turned into a sh as it flew with lightning speed toward the Junior Martial Sister Jian.
Tang Li Xue''s thin and sharp white needle managed to pierce Junior Martial Sister Jian''s waist, but Junior Martial Sister Jian also realized that something stabbed into her waist and quickly checked it in reflex.
However, Tang Li Xue moved much faster than Junior Martial Sister Jian!
She swiftly used her [Energy Maniption] to turn back her thin and sharp white needle into moon energy, then made it dispersed so it could no longer be detected by anyone, including Junior Martial Sister Jian herself.
''Let''s see what that transparent liquid can do! I hope it works fast enough since we are not that far from my perfect copy and Elder Yang anymore.'' Tang Li Xue silently prayed in her heart.
Chapter 363: Suspicion!
Chapter 363: Suspicion!
Junior Martial Sister Jian nced at Tang Li Xue and clenched her fist harder while wondering why her poison did not show its effect yet until now.
Tang Li Xue sensed the gaze from Junior Martial Sister Jian, so she looked back at Junior Sister Jian and smiled at her.
Tang Li Xue''s smile was so sweet and innocent. Anyone who saw this smile would instantly be smitten by her beauty, and they would probably never be able to detect any mischievous intention behind her smile.
Looking at Tang Li Xue''s mesmerizing smile, the jealousy and envy in Junior Sister Jian''s heart were burning more fiercely. She could not wait to tear Tang Li Xue''s face into pieces and see if Tang Li Xue could still smile by then.
Getting hated by so many narrow-minded females was the biggest demerit of having excessive beauty, and also the reason why Tang Li Xue chose to cover her stunningly beautiful face with a fox mask.
Getting hated by this Junior Sister Jian or the Princess of Feng Empire was still within Tang Li Xue''s eptable range. But if she attracted the hatred and jealously from the higher-ups of Myriad Foxes Academy¡ her peaceful days in Myriad Foxes Academy would probablye to an end!
Actually, Tang Li Xue was very nervous and afraid when she attracted hatred and jealousy from Zi Yan of the Inscriptionist Association before. Thankfully, Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan protected her from Zi Yan, so there was nothing happened to her until now.
''But I still need to remain vignt of that Zi Yan. No one can tell if she really already forgot about me right now or she was just bidding her time to find the right timing when I lowered my guards down to strike me down. '' Tang Li Xue warned herself in her mind.
While Tang Li Xue was still in deep thought, the effect of the transparent liquid that Tang Li Xue tried on Junior Sister Jian was finally started to work.
Junior Martial Sister Jian grimaced and started twisting around her body ufortably.
"What is wrong with my body? Why do I feel like this¡?!" Junior Martial Sister Jian murmured with confusion as her body felt very hot, and her face turned red like a prawn.
However, she immediately realized that the symptom she felt right now was identical to the effect of her own poison she used on Tang Li Xue before.
''This is impossible?! Did I identally hurt myself with that needle before?!'' Junior Martial Sister Jian widened her eyes and dropped her jaw in disbelief as she thought about that.
Tang Li Xue noticed Junior Sister Jian''s abnormality from her strange body''s movement in an instant with her [Extrasensory Perception] and sighed in relief: ''Oh? Did that liquid finally show its effect? Fortunately, the effect is finally working right now¡ If not, I probably must leave this group first before they meet with Elder Yang and my perfect copy.''
''Let''s see it~! I hope that liquid is not lethal or this matter would be quite troublesome.'' Tang Li Xue thought again while looking at Junior Sister Jian with curiosity.
After a few moments, Junior Martial Sister Jian finally could not hold on to the effect of the poison anymore and screaming in a shrill tragic voice: "AAAAAAHHHHHH~!!!"
Junior Martial Sister Jian suddenly fell onto the ground and rolling around while kept scratching all over her body with her fingers.
Junior Sister Jian was scratching her body very hard until the clothes she wore tore along with her reddened skin.
She scratched the skin on her body until it was bleeding, and her blood seeped onto her torn clothes.
Ye Zhen, Crown Prince Feng, and the other core disciples who still chatted with each other were taken aback by Junior Sister Jian''s sudden strange behavior that they could not react on time to stop her.
No one of them did not know what exactly happened to Junior Sister Jian, so no one dared to make any carelessly move to help her, especially since they looked at Junior Sister Jian''s reddened skin and her strange conduct right now.
Ye Zhen was the first one who decided to make a move to help Junior Sister Jian by holding both of her hands tightly to stop her from scratching her own body until her skin was torn and bleeding.
''Tsk, tsk, tsk~! Boring~! So, it is only itchy poison?! I had already suffered the worst itchiness every time I previously evolved. Itchiness at this level means nothingpared to what I already felt before.'' Tang Li Xue thought lightly as she watched Junior Sister Jian''s performance from behind the other core disciples.
Just when Tang Li Xue thought so, Junior Sister Jian''s behavior became even stranger when Ye Zhen held both of her hands so tightly to stop her from scratching herself.
"Aaaahhnnnn~!!!"? Junior Sister Jian suddenly moaned loudly in a seductive way.
Her strange reaction made Ye Zhen frowned in annoyance, and he raised his guard even more against Junior Sister Jian.
"Senior Martial Bother Ye~, my body is so hot~! Please help me~! Hold me tighter~! You are so handsome... I¡ I want you¡" Junior Sister Jian said in a slurred tone as if she was drunk before she jumped forward and pounced toward Ye Zhen as if she wanted to forcefully kiss Ye Zhen''s lips.
Ye Zhen was too shocked by Junior Sister Jian''s sudden move, but he already raised his guard to the maximum before, so when Junior Sister Jian suddenly pounced to him, he reflexively raised his right feet and kicked her away.
PPPOOOWWW~!!!
Ye Zhen even forgot to hold back most of his strength, so his kick was quite powerful, and he managed to send Junior Sister Jian to fly several meters away from him.
After flying backward several meters away, Junior Sister Jian groaned in pain, and she started rolling around on the ground again while kept scratching her body again and again with most of her strength.
Almost all of her clothes she wore were torn because she scratched her own body too hard, and she almostpletely naked right now.
But no one had the heart to see her almost naked body since Junior Sister Jian''s body was already filled with ghastly bleeding scratches now.
Everyone here felt very sorry for Junior Sister Jian, but they did not know what to do to help her out. Except for Tang Li Xue, of course, since she would be the one who was in Junior Sister Jian''s ce right now if she was a normal powerless girl, just like in her previous life.
For the first time, Tang Li Xue felt the pleasure and delight of being the strong and powerful one.
''So this is what the main characters in all the novels feel when they counterattacked the schemes from the viins or bullies. Not bad... Oh no, this is quite bad... Since I might get addicted to this feeling~! Hehehehe...'' Tang Li Xue thought as she held down herughter while watching Junior Sister Jian made a fool of herself.
''But the Nascent Soul Stage elder of Immortal Sword Sect that guarding Crown Prince Feng is really cold. It seems he did not even have any n or intention to help that Jian Girl at all!'' Tang Li Xue concluded.
But that was all made sense since the elder''s mission was to secretly guard Crown Prince Feng and to catch the culprit of serial murders if she appearedter.
So, that Nascent Soul Stage elder did not really care about how these core disciples ying around with each other since it was not his mission to babysitting these core disciples anyway.
And also, the mission of these core disciples was actually to help all of the elders of the Immortal Sword Sect here, not the other way around.
Junior Martial Sister Jian still felt unbelievable itchiness all over her body, but Ye Zhen''s merciless kick made her feel unbearable pain on her abdomen until her mind sobered.
Junior Martial Sister Jian red at Tang Li Xue with a pair of bloodshot eyes filled with murderous intent and screamed with a shrill voice: "You¡ This must be your doing! B*tch, vixen, sl*t, how dare you did this to me?!"
Ye Zhen and the others were taken aback by the statement from Junior Martial Sister Jian and nced suspiciously at Tang Li Xue, but they still mostly did not believe Sister Jian''s usation to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue still put an oblivious expression and innocently said: "Eh? What? What are you talking about? I do not even understand it at all."
"B*tch, you still dare to deny it! I¡ I will kill you right now!" Junior Sister Jian gnashed her teeth in intense anger and sprinted toward Tang Li Xue with an aura filled with dense killing intent.
Ye Zhen swiftly shifted his body and stood in front of Tang Li Xue to protect her from the insane-looking Junior Sister Jian.
"Stop it! Junior Martial Sister Jian, that is enough! Rather than attacking random people to vent your anger and difort, you should cover your body first and check your condition to the imperial physician as soon as possible." Ye Zhen rebuked Junior Sister Jian with a stern tone.
"Senior Martial Brother Ye¡ you¡ you still dare to stand up for an outsider like her! Do you even have a heart?! Look at me! I am like this because of her, and you still try to protect her! Senior Martial Brother Ye, I am really disappointed in you!" Junior Martial Sister Jian said to Ye Zhen with teary eyes and sobbing loudly.
"I¡ I do not mean to¡" Ye Zhen started to hesitate.
"Young Master Ye, you can stand aside for now. I believe Sister Jian only has a misunderstanding with me. Everything should be all right after I exined it clearly to her." Tang Li Xue said to Ye Zhen while smiled gently at him.
Junior Martial Sister Jian sneered maliciously when she heard Tang Li Xue''s words.
But Tang Li Xueughed out loud at this Junior Sister Jian''s stupidity in her heart and thought: ''Fool! Do you really think that your Brother Ye is trying to protect me from you by standing between us?! What a naive and stupid girl~! That Brother Ye is actually trying to stop you from getting beaten by me!''
Ye Zhen already saw Tang Li Xue''s true battle prowess when they fought together in Quanhai City before, so he actually wanted to stop Junior Sister Jian from fighting against Tang Li Xue by rebuked her and gave his advice to her.
Junior Sister Jian was still his Junior Martial Sister after all, so Ye Zhen did not want her to get beaten by Tang Li Xue after she was suffering until she looked like a pitiful beggar.
Unfortunately, she did not appreciate Ye Zhen''s good intentions at all and even used him of defending an outsider like Tang Li Xue.
Chapter 364: First Battle After Upgrade Skills!
Chapter 364: First Battle After Upgrade Skills!
Ye Zhen could only sigh helplessness and disappointment when he looked at Junior Martial Sister Jian, who refused to listen to his advice and did not even understand his good intention.
It was true that Ye Zhen did not believe Junior Martial Sister Jian''s usation to Tang Li Xue at all, but he tried to stop Junior Martial Sister Jian from attacking Tang Li Xue for her own goodness.
Since Junior Martial Sister Jian and Tang Li Xue already decided to sort their problem out between themselves, then Ye Zhen and the others did not have any more right to intervene in the problem between them.
Ye Zhen nced at Tang Li Xue with a worried expression for a moment, but Tang Li Xue only smiled and nodded toward him to reassure him that everything would be all right.
Ye Zhen sighed again and finally decided to step aside and let Junior Martial Sister Jian and Tang Li Xue talk to each other.
Junior Martial Sister Jian gnashed her teeth until her gum was bleeding while ring at Tang Li Xue in intense rage and hatred with his bloodshot eyes,bined with her bloody torn-up clothes, body filled with countless bleeding scratches, and her face was also filled with so many bloody scratches¡ Junior Martial Sister Jian''s current appearance was truly too terrifying to look at.
If the current Junior Martial Sister Jian suddenly jumped out to greet the people in the middle of the night, those people would probably think that she was the evil spirit and ran away in fright.
Even some of the core disciples there did not have the heart to see their usually beautiful Junior Martial Sister Jian looked so horrible like this.
They really wanted to help their Junior Martial Sister Jian and brought her to Imperial Physician to check on her condition and cure all of her wounds as soon as possible, so it would not leave any scars on her face and body.
But it seems the emotion of Junior Martial Sister Jian was really unstable right now, just like a bomb that was ready to blow up anytime.
She even dared to oppose and shouted at the Captain of Core disciples in this current mission, Senior martial Brother Ye Zhen which she never dared to do before.
On one side, Ye Zhen and the other core disciples did not believe Junior Martial Sister Jian''s usation to Tang Li Xue at all and wanted to stand up for Tang Li Xue since her stunning beauty made them wanted to protect her from any harm.
While on the other side, Junior Martial Sister Jian was the core disciple of the Immortal Sword Sect and one of their own people. In short, Junior Martial Sister Jian was like their own blood sister.
In the end, all of the core disciples decided to let Junior Martial Sister Jian and Tang Li Xue solve the problem between the two of them by themselves, just like Ye Zhen.
Meanwhile, Crown Prince Feng only watched silently from the side with an unnoticeable cold sneer since the very start as if he was watching a show.
Crown Prince Feng''s strange behavior did not go unnoticed by Tang Li Xue with her [Extrasensory Perception], since she kept sensing everything around her with that divine ability.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as a faint suspicion to Crown Prince Feng starting to bloom in her heart.
Just when Tang Li Xue was pondering carefully about her suspicion of Crown Prince Feng, Junior Martial Sister Jian suddenly screamed angrily to Tang Li Xue: "You sl*tty vixen, how dare you poison me?!"
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when Junior Sister Jian''s sudden shrill scream interrupted her thinking.
Tang Li Xue replied in an annoyed tone: "I am not deaf yet, so you do not need to scream so loudly to me. And also, didn''t I already say it before? I do not even understand what you are talking about, so can you stop asking the same question again and again? It is starting to piss me off."
"You coward sl*tty vixen!!! You still try to deny it! I clearly already pierced you with the Heart Piercer Needle smeared with the Six Colored Firelight Flower''s poison before! How could you still be okay until now?! How could it was me that feel the effect of the poison if you did not do anything?! It is you! It must be you that harm me!" Junior Sister Jian screamed again with a shrill voice.
Intense fury and hatred already filled her mind and made her unable to think clearly, so she just blurted out everything that she had already done before in front of all the people here.
"Oh~! So you are the one that attacked me first with that whatever needle smeared with poison, then you me me because you were attacked by the effect of the poison right now while I am still all right?! Heh¡ So funny~! Is this how the Immortal Sword Sect''s core disciples always conduct themselves outside their sect?" Tang Li Xue said while sneered coldly.
Ye Zhen and the other core disciples started to frown deeply after they heard the conversation between Junior Sister Jian and Tang Li Xue.
They finally knew why Junior Martial Sister Jian always insisted on ming Tang Li Xue for what previously happened to her.
"Shut up, shut up, shut up~!!! I am Immortal Sword Sect''s core disciple! I have every right to do whatever I want to a poor peasant like you! How dare you, a poor peasant, do this to me?! I will make sure you have the most horrible death! I will never let you die so quickly... I will torture you slowly until you keep begging me to kill you!" Junior Martial Sister Jian yelled to Tang Li Xue with a hoarse voice because she screamed too much and too loudly.
"It is futile. You will not be able to do that with your current strength¡ and you are still talking too loud. You better stop it or I will make you regret it." Tang Li Xuezily replied to Junior Sister Jian.
"AHHHH~!!! You sl*tty vixen, dieeeee~!!!" Junior Martial Sister Jian screamed much louder than before while pounced angrily toward Tang Li Xue.
Although Junior Martial Sister Jian''s fury and hatred toward Tang Li Xue already reached the peak until she was almost insane, but she could still use her martial arts skill against Tang Li Xue.
[Sweeping Cyclone Kick]!
Junior Martial Sister Jian tried to sweep Tang Li Xue with her powerful horizontal kick. She did not hold back her strength at all, so her kick was quite powerful until it created a small cyclone that even interrupted Tang Li Xue''s movement.
Unfortunately, Junior Martial Sister Jian''s cultivation was still at the Acupuncture Opening Stage, so her strength still could not match Tang Li Xue yet.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue''sbat prowess was already improved by a lot because she already upgraded her several skills yesterday, and she even managed to hold on much longer in Sun Dragon King''s memories which in return strengthen her [Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline].
Although Tang Li Xue''s overall stats were still the same as yesterday and did not increase at all, but the current Tang Li Xue was clearly a lot stronger than yesterday.
Tang Li Xue''s [urate Prediction] skill already predicted Junior Martial Sister Jian''s move a half-second earlier, just from looking at her body posture and the way she used her Qi.
[Razor-Sharp Mind] skill kept her mind stay clear and undisturbed.
[Increase Reaction Speed] skill made Junior Martial Sister Jian''s move a lot slower in Tang Li Xue''s eyes.
While [Intense Focus] and [Improved Concentration] made Tang Li Xue able to find many ws in Martial Sister Jian''s move and precisely find many ways to counter her attack.
This was the firstbat experience Tang Li Xue has after her several skills were upgraded, so she was still very surprised on how it works. Even though she already fought so many times in Sun Dragon King''s memoriesst night, but it was stillpletely different from now, since she did not even use her own body when she was inside there¡
Tang Li Xue only leisurely took a step backward to easily dodge Junior Martial Sister Jian''s [Sweeping Cyclone Kick].
The wind from the small cyclone created by Junior Sister Jian''s [Sweeping Cyclone Kick] only managed to harmlessly brush off Tang Li Xue''s clothes and made her clothes pped violently.
Tang Li Xue quickly grabbed the fur hat she wore on the top of her head, so it would not identally be blown away by the wind and revealed her pair of silver fox ears.
''Fiuh... That was close... My hat is almost blown away by the wind. I should be more careful next time.'' Tang Li Xue thought and sighed in relief while fixed her tilted fur hat.
Of course, Junior Martial Sister Jian did not give up after Tang Li Xue managed to avoid her first attack.
She kept pouncing ferociously toward Tang Li Xue and used another martial art skill.
[Crouching Tiger w]!
Junior Martial Sister Jian''s two palms formed a pair of ws, and even her Qi formed a pair of gold tiger ws as if she was wearing a pair of tiger gauntlets.
At this time, Junior Martial Sister Jian even summoned out her martial soul!
Martial Soul: [Demonic me Leopard]!
RRROOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR~!!!
A two meters tall ck leopard suddenly jumped out toward Tang Li Xue!
The two meters tall ck leopard did not only have a sturdy body but also covered with deep crimson me as if it wasing out from the hell.
Chapter 365: Connection Between Martial Arts and Qi!
Chapter 365: Connection Between Martial Arts and Qi!
Tang Li Xue swiftly somersaulted backward several times to dodge the simultaneously fierce attacks of Junior Martial Sister Jian and her martial soul: [Demonic me Leopard].
Tang Li Xue''s slender and lithe figure was gracefully moving around so swiftly to dodge the lethal attacks, just like a dancing butterfly that was teasing the people who watched it with its iparable beauty.
Sometimes she would stop moving and made Junior Martial Sister Jian''s sharp [Crouching Tiger w] that empowered by Qi missed by a few centimeters from her face...
Sometimes she would bend her knees and bow down her hack to let the [Demonic me Leopard]''s giant me w passed above her head...
Tang Li Xue could start her counterattack anytime, but she wanted to use this rare opportunity to customize herself with her several newly upgraded skills.
She also wanted to use this rare opportunity to observe how the human cultivator used their martial arts and Qi to fight while getting herself used to fighting with both the human cultivator and the martial soul.
Previously, she also fought with the skull masked man of the Blood Devil Sect in Quanhai City. But she was in a hurry to stop the blood barrier at that time, and she also did not have her several newly upgraded skills yet, so she could not urately inspect the skull masked man''s martial arts and Qi like now.
With her several upgraded skillsbined with her sharp [Extrasensory Perception], not only Tang Li Xue could predict all of the next movement of Junior Martial Sister Jian and [Demonic me Leopard] ahead of time but she also could see their every martial art movement and how their Qi works to empowering their martial art prowess.
''So this is how to use Qi and martial arts. Qi cannot be utilized without martial arts. Cultivation technique like my [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] is only the way to cultivate Qi, but I must use learn martial arts to use my Qi properly!'' Tang Li Xue gasped in realization.
''Sigh... No wonder my overall stats did not improve that great even after I received so many stats boost from my cultivation. So, I must learn martial art first! All right... at least I know what I need to do right now.'' Tang Li Xue said in her mind.
All this time, what Tang Li Xue had done was like storing the powerful legendary sword in the warehouse without having any clue on how to wield it and hoped it would make her stronger somehow.
Meanwhile, Junior Martial Sister Jian and her martial soul: [Demonic me Leopard], became even more agitated and angrier as their fierce rapid attacks still failed to even graze the hem of Tang Li Xue''s clothes after a few minutes had passed.
"[Demonic me Leopard], assimte!" Junior Martial Sister Jian suddenly stopped her assault on Tang Li Xue and shouted out loud to her martial soul.
RRROOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRRR~!!!
The [Demonic me Leopard] roared out loud toward the sky to answer its master call, and its two meters tall body immediately turned into a sh of flickering deep crimson me, then flew toward Junior Martial Sister Jian.
The sh of flickering deep crimson me enveloped Junior Martial Sister Jian''s palms and then turned into a pair of ck gloves.
The pair of ck gloves that Junior Martial Sister Jian wore in her hands were still covered in the burning hot deep crimson me.
The temperature of the deep crimson me was really high, and it was more than enough to even melt the steel in a single touch. So it could be easily imagined what would happen if Junior Martial Sister Jian touched someone while wearing that pair of ck gloves.
The other core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect approached Ye Zhen and nced at him with worried expressions.
One of the core disciples even braved himself and asked Ye Zhen: "Senior Martial Brother Ye, should we stop this fight right now before it is toote? Junior Martial Sister Jian is really serious right now. It seems she intended to finish off Young Miss Xiao."
"That is right. Even though Junior Martial Sister Jian is one of us, but we cannot just let her run so rampant and kill Young Miss Xiao because of her jealousy and anger. Her sinister behavior will ruin our sect''s good reputation as one of the five virtuous sects." The other core disciple said too.
"All of you, calm down. I know what to do. I will definitely stop their battle if they have gone too far. But as you all can see, neither Young Miss Xiao nor Junior Martial Sister Jian seems does not want to stop fighting each other. If we suddenly jump in to stop them, they may even start to attack us." Ye Zhen replied tofort the other core disciples.
Ye Zhen chuckled and said again: "But all of you do not need to worry. Young Miss Xiao is not a weak young girl that needs our protection. In fact, she is really strong, and I believe that she surely can defeat Junior Martial Sister Jian if she is fighting seriously. I do not know exactly what she is doing right now, but it seems she wants to use this battle as an opportunity to understand something."
After Ye Zhen said that, the other core disciples immediately calmed down. They could see that Tang Li Xue could dodge all the attacks from Junior Martial Sister Jian and [Demonic me Leopard] easily without attacking back at all before, so Tang Li Xue was definitely far from being weak.
However, this time it was different.
Since Junior Martial Sister Jian decided to finish off Tang Li Xue, she would definitely go all out. She would not only use her martial soul assimtion, but she would definitely also use her other ace in the hole.
Just like what Ye Zhen and the other core disciples had predicted, Junior Martial Sister Jian''s every movement started to undergo aplete change.
If Junior Martial Sister Jian''s previous fierce rapid attacks were like the violent torrent of river water that threatened to forcefully drown her opponent with her attacks, then her current movement was graceful and slow like calm water without any ripple in theke.
''That is... Tai Chi? No... The movement set ispletely different from what I see on TV before. But the concept should not be that different. What is she trying to do now?'' Tang Li Xue pondered while kept watching Junior Martial Sister Jian''s slow but graceful movements.
''Don''t tell me after she failed to touch me with her fierce rapid attacks, she decided to use soft martial arts against me? I know the theory about the softness can beat the hardness or something like that, but can she even touch me with that slow martial art?'' Tang Li Xue doubtfully thought.
Tang Li Xue never had any experience in facing this kind of soft and slow martial art, so she did not know the true strength and weakness of it.
''This is interesting! Come on, let''s see what you can do to me!'' Tang Li Xue thought while she smiled sweetly at Junior Martial Sister Jian as if she was trying to enticing Junior Martial Sister Jian.
Junior Martial Sister Jian''s rage was burning even more fiercely when she saw Tang Li Xue''s enticing sweet smile.
She felt Tang Li Xue provoking her instead with that enticing smile.
Junior Martial Sister Jian really wanted to tear down Tang Li Xue''s face so badly and see if Tang Li Xue could still smile so sweetly like now after she ripped apart Tang Li Xue''s face with her [Gloves of Demonic me].
Nheless, Junior Martial Sister Jian still gnashed her teeth to suppress her intense burning rage and sessfully maintained her tranquility stance.
Junior Martial Sister Jian suddenly jumped toward Tang Li Xue.
She did not move very fast, but her body''s movement was so strange as if her body was weightless and floating on mid-air.
But the expression of Ye Zhen and the other core disciples instantly changed from calm into shock and disbelief when they saw how Junior Martial Sister Jian moved right now.
"[Drifting Clouds Palms]!" One of the core disciples shouted in surprise.
"To think Junior Martial Sister Jian could already master [Drifting Clouds Palms] until this level... So fearsome!" The other core disciple said while clicked his tongue in awe.
Ye Zhen frowned deeply as he nced at Tang Li Xue with a worried expression.
[Drifting Clouds Palms]''s strength lied in its unpredictability. It was truly hard to predict, dodge, or block the attacks from [Drifting Clouds Palms].
When the opponent thought she would attack, she will back off instead...
When the opponent thought she would attack their head, she will suddenly change the direction and attack their shoulder instead...
[Drifting Clouds Palms]''s weakness only lied in itsck of lethality to finish off her opponent in one decisive move.
To do so, the wielder of [Drifting Clouds Palms] must target the opponent''s most vital point.
But when [Drifting Clouds Palms]bined with the lethality of Junior Martial Sister Jian''s [Gloves of Demonic me], the strength became too fearsome to imagine...
It would be really hard to avoid or block Junior Martial Sister Jian''s attack, but just one touch from her [Gloves of Demonic me] was more than enough to deal a substantial amount of damage to her opponent.
Of course, Tang Li Xue still did not know any about those, so she was still fearlessly facing the approaching Junior Martial Sister Jian without even using her [Golden Winged Serpent''s Gauntlets].
Junior Martial Sister Jian sneered coldly at Tang Li Xue''s ignorance. She did not even bother to hide her intense murderous intent toward Tang Li Xue and screamed: "You dare to face my [Drifting Clouds Palms] with empty hands?! Just die, you idiot!"
Junior Martial Sister Jian''s palms movement suddenly turned blurry and created several afterimages.
Even Tang Li Xue with her [urate Prediction] skills suddenly could no longer predict Junior Martial Sister Jian''s movements very clearly like before.
But it did not mean Tang Li Xue could not react to Junior Martial Sister Jian''s attacks at all...
Her other skills such as [Increase Reaction Speed], [Razor-Sharp Mind], [Intense Focus], [Improved Concentration], and so onbined with her powerful passive divine abilities such as [Auto Correction] and [Extrasensory Perception] was more than enough to cope with Junior Martial Sister Jian''s strange movements.
Tang Li Xue swayed her lithe body to the right and left to dodge Junior Martial Sister Jian''s attempt to grab her.
After exchanging moves tens of times, Junior Martial Sister Jian''s hands which wore [Gloves of Demonic me], almost touched Tang Li Xue''s lithe body a few times, but Tang Li Xue still managed to avoid it by one or two centimeters.
Strangely, Junior Martial Sister Jian did not panic at all, but she sneered colder instead.
Ye Zhen and Tang Li Xue managed to see Junior Martial Sister Jian''s cold sneer, but it was already toote because Junior Martial Sister Jian already changed back her martial technique from [Drifting Clouds Palms] to [Crouching Tiger w]!
"Young Miss Xiao, watch out!" Ye Zhen shouted to warn Tang Li Xue, but unfortunately, it was already far toote.
With her fierce [Crouching Tiger w], Junior Martial Sister Jian finally managed to caught Tang Li Xue off guard and used that chance to grabbed Tang Li Xue''s right wrist very tightly with her left hand!
CCCCRRRRRSSSSSSSHHHHHH~!!!
The scorching temperature of Junior Martial Sister Jian''s [Gloves of Demonic me] roasted Tang Li Xue''s right wrist until it made the horrible sizzling sound.
"Ouch~!!!" Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and winced in pain.
She tried to pull her right wrist to release her right hand from Junior Martial Sister Jian''s grasp, but Junior Martial Sister Jian grabbed her wrist too tightly and refused to let her go no matter what.
"Hahahahaha~!!! Finally, I caught you~! I would like to see if you can still smile so sweetly like before after I rip your beautiful face apart with my own hand!" Junior Martial Sister Jian said whileughed out loud maniacally and stretched her right hand to touch Tang Li Xue''s face.
Chapter 366: My Own White Knight!
Chapter 366: My Own White Knight!
But before the right hand of Junior Martial Sister Jian could touch Tang Li Xue''s face, Tang Li Xue already swiftly moved her left hand and caught Junior Martial Sister Jian''s right wrist.
So their position right now was Junior Martial Sister Jian''s left hand grasped Tang Li Xue''s right wrist, while Tang Li Xue''s left hand held Martial Sister Jian''s right wrist.
Tang Li Xue red at Junior Martial Sister Jian and said to her with a chilling tone: "You are starting to piss me off¡"
Junior Martial Sister Jian was a bit taken aback when Tang Li Xue let out a sliver of killing intent toward her, but she quickly calmed herself down and replied while sneered with a mocking expression: "So what? What can you do other than dodging and running away?"
After she said that, Junior Martial Sister Jian clenched her left hand''s grip with all of her strength with the intention to crush Tang Li Xue''s right wrist and forcefully pulled it away to separate Tang Li Xue''s wrist from her arm.
With her high temperature [Gloves of Demonic me] covered her entire palms, Junior Martial Sister Jian could even melt featured steel in one touch. So she was very sure that she could easily break off Tang Li Xue''s right wrist, just like how she broke a fragile dry twig.
Unfortunately, Junior Martial Sister Jian still did not know anything about Tang Li Xue''s very high resistance to heat and fire thanks to her assimtion with me of Pride and [Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline] she got from the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in her Dantian.
In fact, Junior Martial Sister Jian''s [Gloves of Demonic me] only managed to burn a bit of Tang Li Xue''s skin. It could not even evaporate Tang Li Xue''s blood and ruin the vein on her wrist, not to mention damaging the bones on her wrist.
If Tang Li Xue was in her Fox Form, the me and heat from Junior Martial Sister Jian''s [Gloves of Demonic me] would not even be able to hurt her fur or skin.
However, no one knew any about Tang Li Xue''s abilities yet, so Ye Zhen and the other core disciples wanted to make their moves to help Tang Li Xue out since they saw the situation already turned bad for Tang Li Xue.
Just when Ye Zhen approached and wanted to jump in to help Tang Li Xue from the grasp of Junior Martial Sister Jian''s [Gloves of Demonic me]¡
"Stop it! Young Master Ye, thank you for your concern, but I do not need your help yet, so please do not interfere in our fight." Tang Li Xue nced at Ye Zhen and said with a tone filled with resolve.
Junior Martial Sister Jian became more anxious when she saw Ye Zhen and the other core disciples wanted to stop her fight with Tang Li Xue, so she gritted her teeth and used all of her strength to break Tang Li Xue''s right wrist.
Despite all of her effort, Junior Martial Sister Jian still failed to break Tang Li Xue''s wrist bone.
''This is impossible?! How could her wrist bone even stronger than featured steel?! Even Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator is not this tough!'' Junior Martial Sister Jian screamed in her mind.
Meanwhile, Ye Zhen started to hesitate after he heard Tang Li Xue reject his help.
"But at this rate, your hand will¡" Ye Zhen said as he saw Tang Li Xue''s scorched wrist. He gritted his teeth to push away his hesitation, and he still nned to step in and help Tang Li Xue even after she already rejected his help.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and shouted with a rude tone toward Ye Zhen while red at him in anger: "Go away! I do not need your help!"
''Why do the men always want to act like the white knight? Do they really think all women want to be like Cindere? I am sorry, men... but I am already too tired to act like a Cindere waiting for the white knight or prince to save me from all of my suffering in my previous life.'' Tang Li Xue whispered in her heart.
''In this life, I will be my own white knight!'' Tang Li Xue said full of determination.
CRAAAACCCKKKK~!!!
A horrible sound of bone breaking resounded through the air.
However, it was not Tang Li Xue''s right wrist that broke but Junior Martial Sister Jian''s right wrist.
"AAAAAHHHHH~!!!" Junior Martial Sister Jian screamed out loud in pain.
Junior Martial Sister Jian gnashed her teeth to withstand the pain as she quickly raised her foot to kick Tang Li Xue away and maintain some distance from her.
Tang Li Xue already predicted Junior Martial Sister Jian''s movement half-second ahead of time with her [urate Prediction] skill.
BANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue already raised one of her knees to stop Junior Martial Sister Jian''s kick.
Junior Martial Sister Jian released her grasp on Tang Li Xue''s right wrist and used her left hand to chop at Tang Li Xue''s neck. She believed if she managed tond this attack, Tang Li Xue would definitely receive a substantial amount of damage.
But once again, Tang Li Xue already predicted Junior Martial Sister Jian''s move half-second ahead of time¡
After Junior Martial Sister Jian released her grasp on Tang Li Xue''s right wrist, it was Tang Li Xue''s turn to catch Junior Martial Sister Jian''s left wrist with her right hand to stop Junior Martial Sister Jian''s chopping motion toward her neck.
"You Sl*tty B*tch, release me right now!" Junior Martial Sister Jian screamed with a shrill voice in intense fury while kept pulling both of her hands to release her hands from Tang Li Xue''s tight grasp.
Tang Li Xue sneered coldly toward Junior Martial Sister Jian. She secretly used her [Energy Maniption] to strengthen the fox mask that covered her face while pulled her head back a bit.
Then she forcefully pulled both of Junior Martial Sister Jian''s hands until Junior Martial Sister Jian''s body flew toward her!
BBBAAAAAAAAAANGGGG~!!! CCRAAAAACCKKK~!!!
Tang Li Xue actually used a headbutt attack to strike Junior Martial Sister Jian''s face until it made a very loud sound of bone breaking!
Ye Zhen and the other core disciples dropped their jaw in shock and disbelief.
Even the always calm and cold Crown Prince Feng widened his eyes in surprise.
No one here could believe that a graceful stunning beauty like Tang Li Xue would use such a barbaric move to fight.
With her nose and mouth bleeding profusely, Junior Martial Sister Jian flew backward limply, but of course, Tang Li Xue would not let her off that easily.
Tang Li Xue still grasped both of Junior Martial Sister Jian''s wrists very tightly as she tugged Junior Martial Sister Jian once more toward her while she pulled her head back a bit again!
BBBAAAAAAAAAANGGGG~!!! CCRAAAAACCKKK~!!!
BBBAAAAAAAAAANGGGG~!!! CCRAAAAACCKKK~!!!
BBBAAAAAAAAAANGGGG~!!! CCRAAAAACCKKK~!!!
Tang Li Xue did the headbutt attack to strike Junior Martial Sister Jian''s face, again and again, several more times until her face and fox mask were covered with Junior Martial Sister Jian''s blood before she decided to release her grasp on Junior Martial Sister Jian''s wrist.
The dumbfounded Ye Zhen and the other core disciples even forgot to stop Tang Li Xue from torturing their Junior Martial Sister Jian with her barbaric movement.
They only woke up from their daze when Junior Martial Sister Jian dropped limply onto the ground as if she had already fainted.
"She is pretty tough, but it is not that hard." Tang Li Xue murmured as she wiped the blood on her fox mask and face with her sleeve.
"Young¡ Young Miss Xiao¡ are¡ are you really okay?" Ye Zhen asked Tang Li Xue with a hesitant tone.
"I am okay. You should help her instead. It seems she needs your help more than me." Tang Li Xue nonchntly replied while pointed her finger at the fainted Junior Martial Sister Jian.
"Uh¡ No¡ I mean, is your right hand okay?" Ye Zhen asked Tang Li Xue again more clearly.
"Oh, my right hand is all right too. I have a potent burn medicine in my room. If I used it tonight, this burn wound would bepletely healed tomorrow." Tang Li Xue replied while pulled her sleeve to cover her wounded right wrist.
Actually, Tang Li Xue''s right wrist had already been perfectly healed right now without even leaving any scars thanks to her [High-Speed Regeneration] skill.
Of course, she did not want to let Ye Zhen or the others know about it since it was too unbelievable especially considered Junior Martial Sister Jian''s high temperature [Gloves of Demonic me].
If Junior Martial Sister Jian did not touch Tang Li Xue''s hand but the other girl, their hand would probably already crippled by now.
While Tang Li Xue and Ye Zhen were still chatting with each other, the fainted Junior Martial Sister Jian already slowly started to regain her consciousness again.
Many core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect already surrounded Junior Martial Sister Jian when she opened her eyes.
These core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect already fed Junior Martial Sister Jian with Blood Clotting Pill to stop her bleeding and Wound Recovering Pill to heal her wound.
That was the reason why the fainted Junior Martial Sister Jian could regain her consciousness so quickly and recovered a bit from her wounds.
However, it seems Junior Martial Sister Jian still did not admit her defeat to Tang Li Xue because she immediately stood up and looked for Tang Li Xue once again.
When she saw Tang Li Xue still nonchntly chatted with Ye Zhen as if nothing happened before, the envy, jealousy, intense hatred, and extreme anger in Junior Martial Sister''s heart started to burn even more fiercely than ever.
Junior Martial Sister Jian took out a pair of w weapon from her spatial ring and wore it before summoned out her martial soul and assimted with it again.
But with a pair of w weapons, the lethality of Junior Martial Sister Jian''s [Gloves of Demonic me] increased by several notches than before.
Then Junior Martial Sister Jian suddenly sneak-attacked Tang Li Xue again from behind without even shouting or giving any sign like before.
It seems Junior Martial Sister Jian had already given up on taking down Tang Li Xue in a straightforward manner and decided to kill Tang Li Xue with the sneak attack from the blind spot.
Normally, she would never do something disgraceful like this, but the current Junior Martial Sister Jian had already been blinded by intense hatred and extreme fury in her heart, so she would definitely use any mean to kill Tang Li Xue even it means she would disgrace herself or even die together with Tang Li Xue in process.
Chapter 367: Transcendence State!
Chapter 367: Transcendence State!
Even Ye Zhen, who was currently stood beside Tang Li Xue and chatted with her, had failed to find out that Junior Martial Sister Jian tried to sneak attacking Tang Li Xue from behind them.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue has her sharp [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability could sense everything around her in a certain radius very clearly, including everyone''s hidden intention.
There was no way Tang Li Xue''s sharp [Extrasensory Perception] could miss Junior Martial Sister Jian''s dense murderous intent toward her.
Tang Li Xue could feel her skin got pricked by Junior Martial Sister Jian''s extreme killing intent that came flooding her from behind.
SSWWWISSSHH~!!!
When Junior Martial Sister Jian suddenly pounced and stabbed her w weapon toward Tang Li Xue''s spine from behind, Tang Li Xue also suddenly turned her slender body aside and made Junior Martial Sister Jian''s w weapon attack missed Tang Li Xue by a few centimeters.
Junior Martial Sister Jian''s w attack that filled with murderous intent only managed to cut a few strands of Tang Li Xue''s silky silver hair as she still dashed forward because of her momentum.
"You are courting death!" Tang Li Xue murmured with a cold tone when Junior Martial Sister Jian passed behind her.
Tang Li Xue twisted her body while thrusting her elbow toward Junior Martial Sister Jian''s neck right before Junior Martial Sister Jian passed by her.
BBBAAAAAANGGG~!!!
Junior Martial Sister Jian flew a few meters backward like a kite without string after Tang Li Xue''s elbow hit heavily right at her neck.
Junior Martial Sister Jian immediately stabilized her body posture, so she did not fall and rolling pathetically on the ground, but her feet still nted deeply on the ground and left a deep long trail before she could stop herself from moving backward.
At first, Junior Martial Sister Jian looked as if she did not affect by Tang Li Xue''s elbow attack, but after a few breathes, she finally could not hold on anymore and violently cough a few mouthfuls of blood: "Cough¡ Cough¡ Cough¡"
At this point, even Ye Zhen and the other core disciples werepletely stunned in disbelieve that Junior Martial Sister Jian dared to use such a despicable means to attack Tang Li Xue from behind and with a weapon too.
"AAARRGGHHH~!!!" Junior Martial Sister Jian screamed with a hoarse voice. Her neck was still hurt so much because of Tang Li Xue''s elbow attack before, but her sense of pain waspletely dulled right now because of her intense fury at Tang Li Xue.
Junior Martial Sister Jian sprinted toward Tang Li Xue once again.
This time she used both of her [Drifting Clouds Palms] and [Crouching Tiger w] at the same time.
Sometimes her right hand used the [Drifting Clouds Palms] while her left hand used the [Crouching Tiger w], and sometimes she would use it otherwise.
Junior Martial Sister Jian went all out to defeat Tang Li Xue this time, and she even managed to breakthrough in the middle of her battle with Tang Li Xue, then reached the state where she could not even dare to imagine before.
Soft type martial art and fierce type martial artpletely blended into one made Junior Martial Sister Jian''s current technique seems so unpredictable and dangerous.
Even Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she sensed Junior Martial Sister Jian''s transformation this time, and she started to raise her vignce.
''Sigh¡ My martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], is too eye-catching, so I really do not want to show it in front of all of these core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect. What do to now?'' Tang Li Xue hesitated for a moment.
''Sigh... All right then¡ Let''s try to use [Mirror of the Moon] and see how much I can copy her martial arts! I wonder if it will copy that palm technique or the w technique since she is using it at the same time right now.'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind.
)
Just when Junior Martial Sister Jian''s w weapon almost reached Tang Li Xue¡
---------------------------------------------------
[Mirror of the Moon], Active!
Copy Start!
Name: Combination of [Drifting Clouds Palms] and [Crouching Tiger w] (Transcendence State)
Type: Martial Art
Copy Completed!
---------------------------------------------------
''Eh?! What?! My [Mirror of the Moon] actually managed to copy both of them! Lucky~! And also¡ what the hell is this Transcendence State?'' Tang Li Xue was baffled when she peeked at her system''s notification log.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have any more time to ponder about it since Junior Martial Sister Jian already arrived right in front of her and shed the w weapon toward her neck.
Tang Li Xue ducked her body to avoid it, but Junior Martial Sister Jian quickly performed a weird movement and changed the angle of her attack like a slippery eel and targeted Tang Li Xue''s heart instead.
''So troublesome¡ Let''s try to use thesebination martial arts too and see how it can do!'' Tang Li Xue decided in an instant.
Combination of [Drifting Clouds Palms] and [Crouching Tiger w] (Transcendence State)!
When Tang Li Xue used thebination of martial arts like Junior Martial Sister Jian, she immediately entered a strange state too.
Everything around her seemed to slow down, and all of her senses became a lot sharper than usual. She could also visualize Junior Martial Sister Jian''s next movement much clearer than before as if she entered the same realm as Junior Martial Sister Jian right now.
''Woah~! What a cool technique?! So she is in this kind of state right now?! No wonder she can predict my movement ahead of time and swiftly counter it.'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in amazement.
''So, she is just like the main characters in the novels or movies when they got cornered by thest boss, then they awakened the sleeping power within them and in thest boss. Unfortunately for you, yourst boss is me, little girl. My [Mirror of the Moon] can perfectly copy your state and technique, and my overall stats are also much higher than yours.'' Tang Li Xue thought as she almost wanted tough out loud.
BBBAAAANNGGGG~!!!
Junior Martial Sister Jian actually used [Drifting Clouds Palms] to make her move fluidly and slippery like an eel in the water, but who knew that Tang Li Xue also used the same technique as her to stop her attack.
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Junior Martial Sister Jian kept using the unpredictable [Drifting Clouds Palms], but with the terrifying rapid speed of [Crouching Tiger w]!
While Tang Li Xue kept brushing aside all of Junior Martial Sister Jian''s attacks effortlessly.
Tang Li Xue''s every movement alsopletely changed right now. It became very subtle and fluidic.
''Eh¡ this [Drifting Clouds Palms] is actually¡ pretty good~! It seems so easy to use! I wonder if it is because I have the water elemental martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent]? Uwehehe¡ Let''s step up to the higher notch then and see how much you can keep up with me!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she mischievously licked her pinkish lips.
Junior Martial Sister Jian gnashed her teeth in frustration while kept attacking Tang Li Xue.
[Transcendence State] was a wonderful state of the human cultivator when they performed the martial arts, which they mastered the most to the unimaginable level and pushed it to enter Transcendence State.
It was a very rare state like [Enlightenment State] that could only be entered by the tremendous amount of luck, and no one could easily enter that state even after they trained their martial arts for a long time.
They would certainly be several times stronger in that state, but they would also be exhausted faster in that state.
That state would even ruin their body from inside out if their body was not strong enough to support the Transcendence State of those martial arts.
Currently, Junior Martial Sister Jian was forcing herself to fight against Tang Li Xue in the same state, while she did not have a powerful and tough body like Tang Li Xue.
It was clear that Junior Martial Sister Jian was currently withstanding immense pressure and undergoing unbearable pain, but no matter what she was using whether [Drifting Clouds Palms] or [Crouching Tiger w], everything was pushed aside by Tang Li Xue.
CREK¡ CREK¡ CREK¡ CREK¡ CREK¡
Before Junior Martial Sister Jian knew it, both of her hands already fell and hang on limply on her shoulders, and she could no longer move any of them.
"Im...pos...sible¡ how can you do it¡?" Junior Martial Sister Jian feebly asked in disbelief.
"Of course with [Crouching Tiger w]. You do not know how to do it?" Tang Li Xue asked back with a leisure tone.
Junior Martial Sister Jian widened her eyes in fear and disbelief.
How could she believe that Tang Li Xue could catch her hands while she was in Transcendence State with her own martial technique, [Crouching Tiger w]?!
Not only Tang Li Xue could avoid all of the lethal attacks she performed using [Gloves of Demonic me] and her w weapon, Tang Li Xue even managed to dislocate her wrists and bone joints while fighting at the high-speed like that?!
Junior Martial Sister Jian stared at Tang Li Xue as if she was staring at a living monster.
"Whatever¡ It seems you are already satisfied. It is my turn right now, so you better prepare yourself." Tang Li Xue said again without waiting for Junior Martial Sister Jian''s reply.
After she ended her words, Tang Li Xue clenched both of her palms into a pair of fists.
Tang Li Xue utilized [Drifting Clouds Palms] again, but this time, she performed it with her fists rather than her palms.
Her every movement was still unpredictable, subtle, and fluidic like before, but the lethality of her every attack was increased by several levels!
Meanwhile, Junior Martial Sister Jian could not even move any of her hands since Tang Li Xue already dislocated the bone joints and wrist bones, so how could she defend herself from Tang Li Xue''s fierce attacks?!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Tang Li Xue''s powerful rapid fists rained upon Junior Martial Sister Jian''s face and body without any mercy as if she was not punching a living human but a punching bag.
Just like the torrent of the tsunami, all of Tang Li Xue''s fist attacks came crashing down onto Junior Martial Sister Jian until it made many loud crunching noises of bone breaking.
It was true that Tang Li Xue could not kill this Junior Martial Sister Jian in front of Ye Zhen and all of the core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect, not to mention that there was a hidden powerful elder from Immortal Sword Sect here.
But Tang Li Xue determined to break all of this Junior Martial Sister Jian''s bones until she could no longer move for half a year or might be even longer.
After Tang Li Xue''s countless heavy fists hit Junior Martial Sister Jian, she flew several meters backward beforending onto the ground and rolling several more meters backward.
All of the core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect, including Ye Zhen, dropped their jaws in shock and surprise.
All of them werepletely dumbfounded at Junior Martial Sister Jian''s [Transcendence State], but they became even more dumbfounded when they saw Tang Li Xue effortlessly used the same martial arts as their Junior Martial Sister Jian to defeat her.
"Junior Martial Sister Jian~!" Some of the core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect shouted to Junior Martial Sister Jian and immediately ran toward her to check on her condition.
Although Junior Martial Sister Jian had already done several despicable deeds, but she was still their Junior Martial Sister from the same sect after all.
"Uh¡ Young Miss Xiao, are¡ are you all right?" Ye Zhen asked Tang Li Xue while took a quick nce at Junior Martial Sister Jian.
"I am all right. You should quickly help her instead. I am sorry, but it seems I am overdone it a bit. I admit that I am really pissed off since she kept trying to kill me again and again." Tang Li Xue replied to Ye Zhen while said some excuses from beating up Junior Martial Sister Jian.
Ye Zhen sighed in relief when the other core disciples already checked on Junior Martial Sister Jian''s condition and found out that she was still alive but only fainted for now.
Chapter 368: Chaotic Situation!
Chapter 368: Chaotic Situation!
Ye Zhen nced at Crown Prince Feng and saluted to him while said: "Your highness, I am sorry, but can we ask for the Imperial Physician to check on my Junior Martial Sister Jian to treat her wounds and prescribe some medicine for her?"
"Of course, you can. Let''s bring her quickly to the Hall of Healing and Recovery. Almost all of the Imperial Physicians are living there, except for some Imperial Physicians that got called to examine the dead bodies of the serial murder''s victims." Crown Prince Feng smiled at Ye Zhen and replied.
Ye Zhen smiled back to Crown Prince Feng as he nodded his head and thanked Crown Prince Feng for his generosity.
After that, Ye Zhen urged his fellow core disciples to carry the unconscious Junior Martial Sister Jian and bring her toward the Hall of Healing and Recovery.
On their way, Ye Zhen also apologized to Tang Li Xue for Junior Martial Sister Jian''s impudence.
He even generously said that he would grant any of Tang Li Xue''s requests to repay her for his Junior Martial Sister Jian''s impudence as long as it was still within his capability to do it.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes brightened like a pair of stars when she heard Ye Zhen''s words, and she immediately requested for Ye Zhen to bring her to stand guard on the Imperial Family''s Pce with him.
At first, Ye Zhen tried to refuse Tang Li Xue''s request since it was too dangerous. It was amon secret that the serial killer''s target was actually the Imperial Family, though no one dared to say it openly.
But after Tang Li Xue tried coquettishly persuading Ye Zhen for a few minutes, Ye Zhen gave up under Tang Li Xue''s insistent and promised to bring her to stand guard at Imperial Family''s Pce with him from now on.
With this, Tang Li Xue''s first goal had been fulfilled.
She could finally enter the personal pce where the Imperial Family was living together openly right now.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief as she felt as if the burden on her shoulders had been partially lifted.
When all of them arrived at the Hall of Healing and Recovery, Tang Li Xue nced at Crown Prince Feng from the corner of her eyes in suspicion.
She still did not dare to draw any conclusions because she still did not understand Crown Prince Feng''s exact habit and true nature.
''It seems I can only observe this Crown Prince Feng closely for now. Sigh... Instructor Lan, why do you give me this mission? This is too heavy for me...'' Tang Li Xue thought in frustration while she rubbed her forehead.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still apanying Elder Yang to visit the other crime scene and checked on the dead bodies there.
But how could Elder Yang did not realize when the real Tang Li Xue and Junior Martial Sister Jian were fighting fiercely, not that far away from him?!
Elder Yang frowned deeply as he nced toward the direction where the real Tang Li Xue and Junior Martial Sister Jian fought with each other and mumbled in displeasure: "These little kids¡ Are they still unaware of our current situation yet? How can they still have time to ying around when the serial killer is still lurking around behind us?!"
"Let''s go there right now! How dare they fight with each other in this kind of situation?! I will make sure to scold all of them harshly." Elder Yang said to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and turned around to head toward Ye Zhen and the others.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy started to get anxious and quickly grabbed Ye Zhen''s hand, then said: "Wait a minute¡"
Elder Yang looked at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in confusion and asked: "Why? Do you still have something to do here?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy opened and closed her mouth while pondering carefully what excuse she would say to Elder Yang, so he would not go there and identally meet with her real self.
"I¡ still want to be alone with you¡ so¡ can you stay with me here for now?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy murmured while blushed slightly in embarrassment.
Elder Yang widened his eyes in surprise by Tang Li Xue''s words.
He chuckled happily while seized Tang Li Xue''s smooth hand and said with a gentle voice: "Your request is none other than my wish, youngdy! There will be no one other than the two of us today."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy giggled at Elder Yang''s sweet talk and said again: "All right then¡ there will be no one other than the two of us today."
Then the two of them started to walk together while chatting and flirting happily with each other.
''Er¡ I hate to bother your happy time with that human, but please do not forget your task to ask him to bring you home¡ Cough¡ No, I mean to bring you to guard Imperial Family''s Pce togetherter. Hehehe...'' The real Tang Li Xue sent her thought to her perfect copy with a yful tone.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes and replied in her mind: ''Why don''t you just swap with me and spend your time with him instead? All right, you do not need to worry about my task. Just focus on your fight with that crazy girl. It would be a huge embarrassment if you caught off guard and lost to that crazy girl.''
But somehow, the real Tang Li Xue or her perfect copy could feel that Elder Yang''s rough but warm hand in her grasp felt really familiar. The warmness from him gave a sense of security andfort that Tang Li Xue had been missed before.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shook her head to drive away all of the distracting thoughts and decided to focus onpleting her current task given by Instructor Mei Lan to her real self.
After walking around together for a while, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also requested Elder Yang to bring her to stand guard on the Imperial Family''s Pce so she could stay together with him longer.
At first, Elder Yang frowned deeply and refused her request sternly by saying that it was too dangerous for her because the serial killer was surely still lurking around there to target the Feng Imperial Family.
But after Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy persistently persuaded him with a flirtatious spoiled tone, Elder Yang finally yielded to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and gave her permission to enter the Imperial Family''s Pce with himter.
Of course, Elder Yang demanded Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to always stay close to him in the Imperial Family''s Pceter, so he could protect her from the serial killer.
''All right, that was easier than I thought¡ With this, I and my real self can enter the Imperial Family''s Pce and try to find out about the whereabouts of the serial killer there. Anyway, what should we do to find that serial killer there?'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy started to ponder.
''Sigh¡ Do not ask me about that, I do not know too. That serial killer is a spirit beast, a master of illusion, and also an inspector at Instructor Mei Lan''s level, so I doubt we can easily find her whereabouts.'' The real Tang Li Xue thought.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy have different minds, so they could easily think from two different perspectives and discuss it to draw the most ideal ns for both of them to do.
''By the way, that Crown Prince Feng is a bit suspicious, so I decided to observe him closely for now while watching at the other people around him in the Imperial Family''s Pceter. Who knows if I managed to find some clues about the serial killerter?!'' Tang Li Xue decided her next move.
''All right, then I will stay close with this Elder Yang for now. He is the brain of these people from Immortal Sword Sect, so all the information and clues they have got would be delivered to him first.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also decided what she wanted to do.
The Pce where all of the Imperial Family currently lived together was called Imperial Garden.
Tang Li Xue decided to stay with Ye Zhen and the other core disciples to guarding and patrolling the Imperial Family''s Pce overnight. She decided to do that in order to observe Crown Prince Feng and the other people living in Imperial Family''s Pce closely.
Meanwhile, her perfect copy would stay closely with Elder Yang in the pavilion at the center of Imperial Family''s Pce, and every guard from every Imperial Family''s member must report to him every half an hour tonight.
If the guard from that Imperial Family''s member failed to do so on time, then Elder Yang and the guardian elder would immediatelye toward them to check on their condition.
With so many arrangements to prevent the serial killer from making a move, every Imperial Family member felt more reassured tonight.
Although, they still could not fall asleep in peace because the serial killer was still lurking around in the Imperial Pce, but at the very least, they could feel reassured about their safety.
Who knew that this peaceful quiet night did not evenst until morning before something horrible happening!
The Emperor of the Feng Empire already had one Empress and eight concubines until now.
But six of the eight concubines got killed tonight, and their dead bodies were hanged naked together at the gate of the Imperial Pce without even their personal guards realizing it.
It was hard to tell when these six concubines had been killed, but to think even their personal guards failed to notice anything abnormal and kept reporting it like normal even after six concubines died¡
The assassination prowess of this serial killer was too great to estimate.
Even Elder Yang and the several guardian elders have an intense headache right now.
Meantime, the situation in the Imperial Garden already turned very chaotic and almost out of control as all of the Imperial Family members became panicked in fright and horror.
Chapter 369: Reporting Back To Instructor Mei Lan!
Chapter 369: Reporting Back To Instructor Mei Lan!
Despite the surveince of several Nascent Soul Stage Elders of Immortal Sword Sect, the serial killer could still do something cruel like this under their noses.
At first, all of the Imperial Family members still fully trusted the protection from the several Nascent Soul Stage Elders and quite sure that the serial killer would never dare make a move here in Imperial Garden.
But right now, all of the Imperial Family memberspletely lost their trust in the protection from the several Nascent Soul Stage Elders, and they already have their own ns to do.
Both the Emperor of Feng Empire and Elder Yang has a really great headache right now when facing theint from all the Imperial Family members.
The family members of the dead concubines such as princes and princesses insisted the Emperor and Elder Yang do the total investigation to find the culprit of serial murder and executed the culprit as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, the Imperial Family members that did not have any connection with the dead concubines wanted to protect their own life and family, so they want the Emperor and Elder Yang to just let them get out from Tang Feng City as soon as possible and escape as far as they could from here.
All of them were debating about what to do next so fiercely in a big hall inside Imperial Garden until the dawn has arrived.
The Emperor and Elder Yang decided to adjourn the meeting and rest for a few hours to let all the people here calmed down a bit.
Actually, Tang Li Xue also has a great headache right now though she did not even attend the meeting with Elder Yang.
''Sigh... How the hell the serial killer even did it under our noses like that? At first, I thought Crown Prince Feng is actually the serial killer. Butst night, me and Ye Zhen chatted with him for almost an entire night in his room, so I am pretty sure he could notmit that murders.'' Tang Li Xue grimaced as she rubbed her forehead while kept thinking.
''It seems it is impossible for us to find the serial killer on our own. Even that Elder Yang is facing so much difficulty to track her right now. Should I try to contact Instructor Lan with my Communication Talisman now? If I reported all the information we find to her, Instructor Lan could probably think of something that we miss and we can ask for further instruction from her.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked.
Different from Tang Li Xue that left everything behind when she escaped from the detention room with the help of Instructor Mei Lan and the others, her perfect copy still has her own space pouch contained many kinds of talisman inside it.
It was the lesson Tang Li Xue got in Quanhai City when her perfect copy faced the skull masked man without any talisman to assist or heal her.
After that incident, Tang Li Xue gave a space pouch to her perfect copy that contained several mid-tier spirit stones and many kinds of talisman inside it.
It seemed her arrangement finally paid off right now, and her perfect copy could use the Communication Talisman in her space pouch to contact Instructor Mei Lan.
''All right, you can contact Instructor Lan right now. You just need to tell her all of the information we got, but you do not need to tell Instructor Lan about my wrong blind guess to Crown Prince Feng¡ Since it really is embarrassing for me¡'' Tang Li Xue told her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy told Elder Yang that she wants to go to the toilet. Then she was secretly looking for a secluded ce before taking out the Communication Talisman and using it to contact Instructor Mei Lan.
Inside her room, Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao were still being watched closely by many Imperial Guards.
Some of them already have some suspicion of Tang Li Xue''s ice statue, and one of them even already reported it to the Imperial Guard''s captain.
But something more urgent suddenly happened when several concubines were found dead, and the Imperial Guard''s captain did not have any more time to pay his attention to Instructor Mei Lan and the others.
Meanwhile, the Imperial Guards there did not dare to make any move without their captain''s order.
Actually, the Imperial Guards did not have any more reason to detain Instructor Mei Lan and the others since the serial murder still happened even after Instructor Mei Lan and the others got detained like this.
However, the situation in Imperial Pce became too chaotic right now, so no one remembered to lift the detention order for Instructor Mei Lan and the others.
Instructor Mei Lan who still closed her eyeszily to rest, suddenly opened her eyes when the Communication Talisman that she stuffed in the clothes on her chest vibrated.
Instructor Mei Lan secretly took the Communication Talisman from her chest while pretending to fix her clothes and put the Communication Talisman in her ck hood when she was pretending to pull the hood to cover her face more.
"Instructor Lan¡ something big had already happened." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said to Instructor Mei Lan through the Communication talisman.
"Tell me everything you find and what happened clearly, including any clues you manage to find. Be sure to not miss anything." Instructor Mei Lan replied with a soft voice.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy started to tell every information she managed to find from Elder Yang and her own finding to Instructor Mei Lan, including the massacre of several concubines in Imperial Garden.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled softly after she heard everything from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and murmured: "Just like before, she still likes to y with everyone''s mind. Her way to stir everyone''s feeling ording to her will is still as terrifying as ever."
"y with everyone''s mind? Stir everyone''s feeling?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked in confusion.
"It was clear from what she was doing to those concubines'' dead bodies. She wants to make everyone''s there feel restless in fear and panic. She wants them to quarrel with each other. Right now, all the people there must feel like several living fishes in the boiling pot. If they jumped out from the boiling pot, they would die. But if they kept staying in the boiling pot, they would die too." Instructor Mei Lan exined.
"I really do not understand it. Why she did not just kill all of her targets at once and just escape quickly from here?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked again.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and replied with azy tone: "Because her targets are still heavily guarded by someone powerful."
"I dare to bet right now that Elder Yang does not have so many Nascent Soul Stage Elders with him, at least, three or four¡ One for guarding the Emperor, one for guarding the Empress, one for guarding himself, and thest one is patrolling around in secret to find the culprit of serial murder." Instructor Mei Lan started to exin again.
"The serial killer''s target must be the Emperor and the Empress, but they are being guarded by Nascent Soul Stage Elders, so she clearly could not attack them right now. She did not have any other choice than to stir the situation around like this in order to force all of the Nascent Soul Stage Elders to make their move to find and catch her. While she will use that opportunity to strike the Emperor and the Empress, then killed them in one sweep." Instructor Mei Lan concluded her exnation.
"But I still do not understand it¡ why does she need to do something so troublesome like this if she really is a Spirit rank beast? She can just swiftly attack head-on to kill the Emperor and Empress, then quickly escape from there, right?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked again in puzzlement.
"Not bad! You really have improved a lot since you already can think that far. I have a few spections about that, but I only sure about thirty to forty percent about it. Let''s forget it for now because we can only blindly guess it for now without any further evidence or clue." Instructor Mei Lan said as she shook her head.
"Let''s talk about your guess for now¡ You already observe so many people out there, right? So, you must have someone you suspect, right? Tell me more clearly about it." This time, it was Instructor Mei Lan''s turn to ask Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Aaahhh?! Someone I suspect?! I¡ I have no¡" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy started to stutter.
"Come on, do not lie to me. I know from your reaction that you have someone you suspect." Instructor Mei Lan said while chuckled.
"I¡ all right. I suspect the Crown Prince Feng before, but yesterday night, I and several core disciples spent our time to chat with him, so he definitely is not the killer of those concubines." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy exined in embarrassment.
"Too na?ve! If you are suspecting someone, then you must never let your guard down just because he has a perfect alibi that night. On the contrary, you must do your best to confirm if he is really the culprit or not." Instructor Mei Lan rebuked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"I¡ I am sorry! But, what should I do to do that?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked.
"Listen, the Emperor would definitely hold avish banquet tonight to calm down the people there¡" Instructor Mei Lan replied.
"Wait a minute¡ Instructor Lan, how could you know that the Emperor would hold avish banquet tonight?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suddenly asked again curiously.
Instructor Mei Lan''s lips twitched as she thought: ''Little Xue has certainly be smarter than before, but her habit to ask the stupid question from time to time still remains unchanged.''
"Just think about it¡ the situation there is almost uncontroble, and all the people were very restless, so the Emperor would definitely need to do something to calm down the people there. I want you to use the chance in that banquet to seduce that Crown Prince Feng and check if he really is the culprit or not." Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy about what she needs to do.
"Wha¡ WHAT?! I must seduce that Crown Prince Feng in that banquet?! Instructor Lan, you must be joking, right?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy raised her voice in shock and disbelief.
"Why not?! We already know the serial killer is a woman, so she will not be able to sleep with you if Crown Prince Feng is really the culprit." Instructor Mei Lan said again.
"But what if Crown Prince Feng is not the culprit in disguise, but really the real Crown Prince Feng?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked back.
"Then you just have to knock him out until morninges and pretend as if you already slept with him. Easy, right? Don''t tell me that you cannot even win against a weak pampered prince like him." Instructor Mei Lan replied with a nonchnt tone.
Chapter 370: Decisive Night!
Chapter 370: Decisive Night!
"What if I just attack him head-on to test if he really is the disguised culprit or not?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked in reluctance.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and said: "You can do that if you do not afraid to get killed by the nearby Nascent Soul Stage Elder."
"But I... do not feel that it is right to seduce someone I do not even like... and I also do not want to seduce someone I barely know..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied.
"Little Xue, I do not know why, but it seems you are really easy to get affected by the human''s way of thinking. Listen up, we may blend with human society a lot in our mission, but we must never lose ourselves. Because we are the foxes from Fox Race, and we are not humans. So, human customs and manners never apply to us." Instructor Mei Lan preached Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy again.
"In human customs and manners, seducing anyone you do not like means you are an easy woman, cheap woman, sl*t, or whatever it called. But in our Fox Race, it is considered asmon. No... In fact, the more people you can seduce to follow your every whim, it means you have a higher charm than the other foxes. You can even be proud of that." Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy about Fox Race''smon custom.
Actually, Instructor Mei Lan med her negligence for not teaching Tang Li Xue and the others about this subject in more depth previously.
This was also the reason why the newbie foxes need to undergo a few years of education in the Education Department before they were allowed to upgrade their badge to silver and went into the human world to carry out the mission.
But Instructor Mei Lan concluded that Tang Li Xue and the others were already prepared for this since they had shown astonishing growth in these few months. That was why she decided to let them follow her on the mission and trained them while at it.
In fact, Tang Li Xue was already showing unbelievable growth in only these two missions. Unfortunately, the growth of her strength, IQ, and EQ were not well-bnced in Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes.
Tang Li Xue''s IQ and strength had already shown quite a lot of increase, while her EQ remained stagnant in Instructor Mei Lan''s opinion.
"Sigh... What a pity... you can actually do so many things with your peerless stunning beauty, but with your current way of thinking... that is really such a huge waste on you. I dare to bet that your stunning beauty will only create more troubles rather than benefits for you in the future with your soft and naive attitude." Instructor Mei Lanmented.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not even dare to refute that Instructor Mei Lan''s words at this point.
"All right, let''s skip that for now and continue with our current discussion. Judging from your personality, I doubt that you are only blindly suspecting that Crown Prince Feng without any proof, right? At the very least, he must have done something suspicious in front of your eyes. Tell me everything about it." Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hesitated for a while before decided to tell Instructor Mei Lan about what happened yesterday noon, including her battle with Junior Martial Sister Jian.
"Crown Prince Feng''s behavior haspletely changedpared to the first time we met him before, but I am still not very sure about it since we only knew him for only one or two days. I also suspected that he used an unknown method to make Junior Martial Sister Jian''s emotion became out of control in order to test my strength." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy concluded her story.
If Crown Prince Feng was here to hear Tang Li Xue''s words, he would certainly very surprised. Because Tang Li Xue could still observe his every movement carefully even when she was still fighting so fiercely against Junior Martial Sister Jian before.
"Since you already have some right reasons to suspect him, then why do you need to hesitate now? Just do as I told you. Prepare yourself, and try to seduce him in the banquet tonight." Instructor Mei Lan giggled and said to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy again.
"I¡ All right then. I will try to do it tonight. But what if the current Crown Prince Feng was really the serial killer in disguise. My strength is far from enough to catch her." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said herst attempt to reject.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and said in a mocking tone: "Do you only pretend to forget, or do you seriously forget about your perfect clone and swap skill? You can easily swap with your perfect clone if the situation was not good... or you can just use your perfect clone to seduce that Crown Prince Feng while your real self only needs to watch from the side."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "¡.."
''All right, I really cannot outsmart Instructor Lan yet¡ Sigh¡'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only sigh in regret and ept the task from Instructor Mei Lan.
After giving a few more instructions to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Instructor Mei Lan turned off themunication.
"Get some rest now and prepare yourself. We will make our move tonight." Instructor Mei Lan told Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao using her [Telepathy].
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao widened their eyes in surprise and asked simultaneously with their [Telepathy] skill: "Little Xue already found the identity of the serial killer?!"
"Nope, not yet. But she is not that far away from the truth. Also, our time is almost up. The serial killer will definitely make her move to strike all of her targets tonight." Instructor Mei Lan replied to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
"What? Our time is already almost up? So fast? But we have only arrived here for two or three days!" Hei Yinghao asked again in disbelief.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and exined: "Even Little Xue already has some suspicion and found some clue about the serial killer''s identity. Little Xue''s rival, that Elder Yang, is much smarter than her. I am sure that he definitely already guessed the identity of the serial killer too, and he might even already make some ns to ambush her tonight."
"So, tonight is the decisive night. The serial killer, the people from Immortal Sword Sect, and we would move at the same time? Does it mean we will be facing great danger tonight?" Bing Yi asked in a skeptical tone.
"That is right, but we have no other choice. Do not worry, everything would be all right. Just make sure that you two do not go too far away from meter, be sure to always remember my rules in your mind, and always obey my every instruction." Instructor Mei Lan told Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi with a stern tone.
After told Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi everything they need to do, Instructor Mei Lan decided to take some rest until the sky turned dark.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi also decided to take some rest and sleep for now.
¡..
¡
.
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan had predicted, the invitation to attend the banquet tonight was sent to all the people in this Imperial Garden, and all the people must attend it without any exception.
Anyone who dared to miss tonight''s banquet would get punished very harshly or even get executedter.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was having a great headache about the task given by Instructor Mei Lan to her right now.
''How the hell can I seduce someone again?! Sigh¡ I do not even have any experience or knowledge about this at all. Should I wear a sexy outfit and put on some makeup? Uaaarrgghhh... I really do not know!'' Tang Li Xue let out a frustrated cry in her heart.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sent her thoughts and mocked the real Tang Li Xue: ''Wear a sexy outfit and put on some makeup?! Pfffttt¡ You are not in your previous world right now. From Bingbing''s story, Instructor Lan seduced her target with only her gentle gesture, sweet voice, and wine. What if you try to copy her?''
''Stupid~! Instructor Lan is already a veteran! A professional! How can an amateur like us imitate her way?! Sigh¡ Forget it! We do not even have a sexy outfit or makeup tools here. Let''s think about itter at the banquet. My reliable perfect copy, I am counting on you for this, so do not let me down.'' Tang Li Xue thought while sighed in resignation.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes in distress, but she already epted this task directly from Instructor Mei Lan, so she could no longer shrug it off.
''By the way, this Elder Yang is disappeared a lot today. Usually, he will keep me apany when he has some free time, but he seems so busy today.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought as she started to feel suspicious.
''Same¡ I also did not see that Ye Zhen today. It seems they are doing something in secret behind us. Don''t tell me that they already found the serial killer and nned to catch her right now?! It should be impossible, right? They could not even find any clue to track the serial killer right now.'' The real Tang Li Xue pondered carefully.
''They might not know about the identity of serial killer yet, but they definitely nned to do something in the banquet tonight to baiting her out! That was the only reason why they did not even bother to bring us with them or tell us about it!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy added.
Chapter 371: Night Banquet!
Chapter 371: Night Banquet!
''Sigh... It seems the banquet tonight is destined not to be a peaceful one. Anyway, I will leave everything in your hands, my perfect copy. Please, do your best toplete the task given by Instructor Lan!'' Tang Li Xue encouraged her own perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: ''.....''
''Don''t know why, but why does the encouragement from my real self feel like a mocking instead.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue spent most of her time loitering around the Imperial Garden to look after some clues that might be identally left behind by the serial killer.
But Tang Li Xue let her perfect copy stayed in her own room since she surely did not want anyone to meet with both her real self and her perfect copy at the same time.
Unfortunately, she did not find anything suspicious today until the sky turned dark, and unknowingly, it was already the time for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to attend the night banquet.
She still had not seen either Elder Yang or Ye Zhen today, but both of them were still concerned about her well-being, and each of them even ordered the maid to send her a beautiful dress for her to wear at the banquet tonight.
Ye Zhen sent a light blue-colored dress with several lotuses motive. It looks beautiful and very suitable for her. Even Tang Li Xue liked it a lot in only one look.
If Tang Li Xue wore it, she would look like an untainted lotus goddess descending to the earth.
Unfortunately, this light blue-colored dress did not eye-catching enough. It seems Ye Zhen spent quite a lot of time picking this dress that was very suited to Tang Li Xue''s usual preference.
But Tang Li Xue needs to wear something very eye-catching tonight to attract Crown Prince Feng''s attention to her.
Tang Li Xue took a nce at the beautiful dress given by Elder Yang.
It was actually a pink-colored dress with cherry blossom motive. It also looks beautiful but would give the opposite aura from the light blue-colored dress given by Ye Zhen.
If Tang Li Xue wore it, she would look more girlish and lovely. It would be hard to imagine if she acted coquettishly while wearing this pink-colored dress, everyone would probably forget all of their anxiousness and wants to pamper her with everything they have.
"I will wear this pink dress to the night banquet then¡ Oh, wrong. I mean, my perfect copy will wear this pink dress to the night banquet." Tang Li Xue murmured as she touched the pink dress to examine it more closely.
''It is really soft andfortable to touch. It seems the materials to make this pink dress must be really rare and expensive.'' Tang Li Xue evaluated the pink dress in her grasp quite highly.
It did not take long for her perfect copy toe back into Tang Li Xue''s room.
Tang Li Xue quickly helped her perfect copy to wear the pink dress.
There were actually some maids that waiting outside to help her get changed, but Tang Li Xue refused their help since she did not want to let those maids knew that there were two Tang Li Xues in the room.
After helping her perfect copy wore the pink dress, Tang Li Xue took off the fox mask that covered her perfect copy''s face and only let her wear the princess short hooded cape to cover her fox ears.
As for her fox tail, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only needs to hide it under her dress.
"You do not need to cover your face tonight since your task is to seduce Crown Prince Feng. Do not forget to keep your distance from Ye Zhen and Elder Yang tonight. I am afraid Crown Prince Feng will not even dare to sit near you if you are too close to both of them." Tang Li Xue reminded her perfect copy again.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes and said in a disdainful tone: "Are you stupid or what?! Do you know that our minds are connected?! There is no need for you to mention any about it! As long as you still remember it, then it also means that I also remember it!"
"Sorry¡ Hehehe¡ You know¡ That is our bad habit. Good luck to you then!" Tang Li Xue justughed it off while pushed her perfect copy out from her room.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took a deep breath to decrease her nervousness as she started heading to the ce where the night banquet was being held tonight.
But her expression immediately changed when she sensed that both Ye Zhen and Elder Yang were actually heading toward her.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy already used the [Mapping Sense] skill to nt the tracker on Ye Zhen and Elder Yang, so she could track their location easily, anytime she wants it.
Both Ye Zhen and Elder Yang must be nned to pick her up and go to the night banquet together, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not want to look too close with any of them tonight, so she decided to take a bit longer detour.
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy met with someone unexpected instead on her way toward where the night banquet being held.
"Greeting to the Empress of Feng Empire. May Your Highness always healthy and have a long life." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy politely said as she bowed deeply to the middle-aged woman with majestic crimson phoenix dress.
Yes, there was no need to doubt this middle-aged woman''s identity anymore. Even the most stupid people could easily guess it from her majestic crimson phoenix dress. She was even guarded closely by several fierce-looking guards and beautiful maids.
But her identity was actually not that important for Tang Li Xue¡ Tang Li Xue was more worried about this Empress''s attitude to her.
If this Empress''s attitude was a narrow-minded and overbearing person, she would certainly not like Tang Li Xue''s current stunning looks.
She would certainly be filled with envy and jealousy, just like the previous Junior Martial Sister Jian, and probably started scheming to harm Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Oh, heaven¡ Little Girl, you look so beautiful like a fairy. I wonder where are youe from?" On the contrary to Tang Li Xue''s expectation, the Empress smiled gently at Tang Li Xue and even greeted her with a friendly tone.
"Answering Your Highness''s question, this humble one''s name is Xiao Xue. I am only a guest invited by Elder Yang to attend the banquet tonight." Tang Li Xue was quite stunned by the Empress''s friendly response, but she still quickly replied to her question since she was afraid that the Empress would be displeased toward her because of that.
"Get up, you do not need to be so formal with me. Your name is Xiao Xue? Little Snow?! Even your name is also very lovely, just like you. Come closer, Xiao Xue. I am also heading to the banquet right now, so let''s head there together." The empress said to Tang Li Xue while smiled gently at her.
For some unknown reasons, Tang Li Xue suddenly felt that Empress''s smile was almost identical to Instructor Mei Lan''s gentle smile, so the body of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tensed up in an instant, and she immediately raised her guard to the maximum in reflex.
But the [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not detect any malicious intention from the Empress.
''Sigh¡ This might be a trauma I got from Instructor Lan''s torturous training. It seems I will need some time to get used to seeing an actual gentle smile like this Empress''s smile instead of Instructor Lan''s fake smile.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in relief as she vigntly approached the Empress and heading toward the night banquet together.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and the Empress to arrive at the location of the night banquet.
The night banquet was actually being held in the center of the Imperial Garden, where the view was the most beautiful with many kinds of colorful flowers blooming and many fireflies flying around those flowers.
Usually, all of the people that attended the luxurious night banquet like this would feel very happy and honored, so the situation would be very joyful, merry, and cheerful.
Unfortunately, the current timing when this night banquet was held on was not quite right, with the serial killer might be still loitering around them and waiting to aim for their necks.
Everyone that attending this night banquet was feel restless and insecure. They did not even dare to touch the drink and food since they were afraid if the serial killer put the poison in it.
But when the Empress brought Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy into the night banquet, everyone instantly forgot about everything as their mind turned nk by Tang Li Xue''s breathtaking beauty.
Moonlight shone upon her slender body, and she seemed like a beautiful fairy that had descended upon the world as her pink dress fluttering slightly under night wind.
Her long and lustrous silver hair fell upon her shoulders, entuating her white delicate, and matchless beautiful face.
Her skin looked like polished jade, so smooth and white without any impurity.
Not to mention her pair of mesmerizing topaz blue eyes that almost stole everyone''s soul away in one nce.
All of the people in the banquet forgot to close their dropped jaw, and they could no longer take their eyes off from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy anymore.
Some of them even forgot to swallow the wine or saliva in their mouth and started to drool.
Even the Emperor who sat at the highest seat almost embarrassed himself when he kept staring at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with the pair of eyes almost fell out from its socket.
Chapter 372: Making Their Move!
Chapter 372: Making Their Move!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy carefully observed her surrounding with her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability.
''There are so many members of Imperial Family gathered to attend this night banquet tonight. If the serial killer used her illusion-type divine ability to confuse all of the people here and make them start to kill each other¡ The consequence would be too terrible to imagine!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought while frowned deeply.
''I wonder what was in that Elder Yang''s mind and what his n was. But it seems he really has high confidence in his n since he even dares to stake the lives of all people here as his bait.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy concluded.
While Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still dazed because she was thinking deeply, the Empress already led her toward the Emperor and let her sat beside Crown Prince Feng.
The Empress herself sat right beside the Emperor at the highest seat.
After taking her seat, the Empress nced at the Emperor and all the other guests in the banquet that was still stunned silly by Tang Li Xue''s breath-taking beauty. She giggled softly and said: "Everyone, the name of this young miss is Xiao Xue, and she is the personal guest of Elder Yang. I know that she is really beautiful, like a fairy. But all of you will make her ufortable if you kept staring at her like that."
The Empress''s voice sounded very clear in the banquet hall, which waspletely quiet just a moment ago, and it immediately broke everyone out from their dumbfounded state.
Everyone, including the Emperor, lowered their head in embarrassment, but they still secretly nced at Tang Li Xue from time to time.
All the people in this Immortal World were more handsome and beautiful than Tang Li Xue''s previous modern world because this Immortal World was free from all pollution and contamination.
Moreover, everyone in this Immortal World started their cultivation since they were really young. Every Cultivation breakthrough would make them secrete the impurities hidden in their bodies and made their figure ideal.
Amongst Human Race and Beast Race, the beauty of Fox Race was surpassing most of them, while Tang Li Xue''s beauty could even be ced at the top of the Fox Race.
So, it was not strange that all of these people could not even take their eyes off from Tang Li Xue, and their eyes would subconsciously look at her again and again.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, who already sat on the seat beside Crown Prince Feng, kept observing Crown Prince Feng''s every movement and reaction.
Of course, she did not observe him with her eyes, but she observed him secretly using her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability.
At first, Crown Prince Feng''s reaction was the same as everyone''s, but he could recover from his dazed state much quicker than the others, then he also quickly acted as usual without showing anything strange.
However, Tang Li Xue''s suspicion of him became much stronger instead because of this.
If Tang Li Xue''s suspicion to Crown Prince Feng was only at thirty to forty percent previously, then now, her suspicion has grown to sixty to seventy percent.
Most of the males, especially human males, would usually act embarrassed and did not dare to make eye contact with her at first, but they would still frequently ncing toward her.
But this Crown Prince Feng quickly adjusted himself and pretended as if he did not recognize her instead.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy became even more determined to test this Crown Prince Feng.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also felt a bit suspicious at the Empress''s intention since the Empress let her sat beside Crown Prince Feng.
''Maybe because she appreciates my beauty and wants to matchmake me with her son, that Crown Prince Feng? But we only meet once, so it did not make any sense. Oh, well¡ That is not that important, so let''s forget it for now. Let''s focus on approaching Crown Prince Feng first!'' Tang Li Xue decided it in her heart.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy turned her head toward Crown Prince Feng while smiled friendly at him and said: "Xiao Xue greets Crown Prince Feng. I hope my presence does not disturb you."
Crown Prince Feng only shed his smile back at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and nodded to her, then he turned around and talked to his brother beside him again.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was stunned for a moment by Crown Prince Feng''s tant intention to avoid her.
''What the hell?! He can even ignore a beauty like me?! All right! I am 100% sure that he is an impostor right now! But¡ what should I do right now? I cannot just apprehend him in front of the others just like that, right?'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy started to think, but she immediately sensed something with her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability.
Some people among the crowd were staring at her with eyes filled with envy and jealousy, but someone actually dared to stare at her with eyes filled with malicious intent.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took a nce toward where that stare came from, she immediately realized that it was actuallying from Princess Xian, the princess she met at the entrance of Tang Feng City before.
As if the problem faced by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was not enough, both Elder Yang and Ye Zhen finally arrived together at the night banquet.
When both Elder Yang and Ye Zhen saw Tang Li Xue''s breath-taking beauty, their first reaction was the same as the others.
Their mind turned nk in an instant, and they werepletely dumbfounded for a few whiles.
Everything around them seems turned blur, and they could only see Tang Li Xue''s dazzling beauty under the moonlight in their sight.
Ye Zhen already saw Tang Li Xue''s true appearance before in Quanhai City, so he could recover from his daze a bit faster than Elder Yang. But even so, his eyes still could not look away from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s slender figure turned into something else in Elder Yang''s eyes.
That silky and smooth silver hair that shining under the moonlight¡
A pair of dazzling topaz blue colored eyes that so beautiful like a pair of stars¡
Even her way of moving and behaving...
"Xiao Bai¡ Are you really Xiao Bai''s reincarnation? No... It should be impossible. Xiao Bai died not even a year ago, while this girl''s age is probably already fifteen to sixteen years old." Elder Yang muttered in a daze.
Elder Yang shook his head as his mood turned gloomy. He did not have any more moods to enjoy the banquet or Tang Li Xue''s stunningly beautiful look.
All he wanted to do right now was only drinking wine under the moonlight while reminiscing his short but very enjoyable time with his Xiao Bai before.
"Young Miss Xiao! So you already here!" Ye Zhen greeted Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a joyful smile on his face.
"Young Master Ye, I wonder why I did not see you at all today. So, you took a stroll around with Elder Yang this whole day." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said while giggling at Ye Zhen.
"Ah, it is¡ not like that. Actually, I, Elder Yang, and many other people are really busy today preparing for tonight''s banquet. But I personally still feel a lot of regrets since I cannot apany you today. I hope you do not get angry at me because of that." Ye Zhen replied to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a half-joking tone.
"Of course¡ Yes! I am really angry, so you have to give me a lot of delicious food tonight! Hehehe¡ I am joking. I know you are very busy today." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said to Ye Zhen while giggling happily.
While chatted happily with Ye Zhen, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took a nce at Elder Yang, who already sat on his seat right beside the Emperor.
The Emperor put on a ttery expression, and it could be easily guessed that he must be currently boot-licking Elder Yang with hispliment and ttery.
Elder Yang himself did not really pay attention to what the Emperor was talking about and only absentmindedly nodded his head from time to time.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also did not know why, but she felt that Elder Yang seemed like not being himself today.
Elder Yang would usually approach and greet her first, then he would start to pull her toward him, and if she tried to resist him, he would definitely use something to ckmail her like before.
''So strange¡ Is he actually the other people impersonate as Elder Yang, just like Crown Prince Feng? It is impossible, right? With so many Nascent Soul Stage elders protecting him, who even had the guts to impersonate himself as him?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately denied the possibility in her mind.
''Oh well¡ It is nice of him to act like a good boy tonight, so I do not need to waste more of my energy dealing with him. All right, my real self... you better call Instructor Lan right now and tell her that this Crown Prince Feng is an impostor! Don''t forget to ask about what we should do next!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy screamed in her mind while kept chatting happily with Ye Zhen.
¡..
¡
.
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue actually already took the Communication Talisman from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy before she helped her perfect copy to change her dress, so she could easily call Instructor Mei Lan right now.
Tang Li Xue took the Communication Talisman and used it to contact Instructor Mei Lan with it. It did not take long for Instructor Mei Lan to pick up Tang Li Xue''s call.
Tang Li Xue told everything that happened today and Crown Prince Feng''s avoidance toward her to Instructor Mei Lan in detail.
"Where are you right now? We already reached the entrance of Imperial Garden. We will pick you up right now." Instructor Mei Lan said with a solemn tone.
"Eh? What? We? So, Bingbing, Silly Fox, and you already escaped from those Imperial Guards ande to Imperial Garden?!" Tang Li Xue replied in surprise.
Chapter 373: Sudden Blinding Light!
Chapter 373: Sudden Blinding Light!
"Yes. We must make our move tonight, or the situation would be really bad for our target. We will meet up right now and stealthy heading to the night banquet together." Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue their next n.
"All right, I understand! I am in my room right now, the 3rd room on the right side of Imperial Garden." Instructor Mei Lan told Instructor Mei Lan her current location.
"Stay there and get ready. We will head there first to pick you up." Instructor Mei Lan said before turned off the Communication Talisman.
After storing her Communication Talisman back into her space pouch, Tang Li Xue opened her system''s status window, then she decided to summon Yaya and Little Loki out from her system''s storage.
Little Loki still looked nonchnt andzy as usual. It gracefully jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s shoulder while yawned, and then itid downzily on Tang Li Xue''s shoulder as if it wanted to continue its nap.
While the hot-headed Yaya was already fuming in rage because Tang Li Xue put her too long in the system''s storage, so she immediatelyined and pouted in anger when Tang Li Xue summoned her out right now.
Even Tang Li Xue needed to coax Yaya for a few minutes and bribed her with some delicious snacks before Yaya''s anger subsided.
"You two, listen up... We will be carrying on a very dangerous and important mission with Instructor Lan and the others tonight. So, I hope we can work together toplete this mission. I also hope that you two can listen to my every instructionter and never do something reckless, do you understand?" Tang Li Xue said to Yaya and Little Loki with a very stern tone.
Yaya''s expression also turned solemn as she nodded to Tang Li Xue, signified that she understood it.
Little Loki stillid downzily on Tang Li Xue''s shoulder. It did not raise its head but only nodded its head a bit.
Tang Li Xue smiled in satisfaction and felt reassured by Yaya and Little Loki''s response, so she decided to gently pat the heads of Yaya and Little Loki.
Tang Li Xue joked and yed around with Yaya and Little Loki for a few minutes in her room while waiting for Instructor Mei Lan and the others to arrive.
It did not take long for Instructor Mei Lan and the others to reach Tang Li Xue''s room.
When Tang Li Xue opened her room''s door and let them entered her room first, Instructor Mei Lan took out Tang Li Xue''s space pouch from her sleeve and gave it back to Tang Li Xue along with a set of ck clothes.
"Little Xue! I miss you so much!" Hei Yinghao immediately jumped toward Tang Li Xue as soon as she opened the door, but Tang Li Xue only turned her body a bit to dodge him.
"Little Xue! I miss you very much!" Bing Yi did the same thing as Hei Yinghao and hugged Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue did not mind her and even hugged her back.
Hei Yinghao immediately put his usual wronged expression as if Tang Li Xue had bullied him as he pouted at Tang Li Xue.
"Quickly change your clothes into these ck clothes first! You do not want all the people in the banquet to recognize your appearance and put a high bounty for your head in the future, right?" Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue with a teasing smile on her face.
Tang Li Xue was stunned for a moment when she suddenly received a set of ck clothes from Instructor Mei Lan, but her expression turned serious as she quickly replied: "Oh¡ Okay. I get it."
Not only Instructor Mei Lan but even Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were already wearing aplete set of ck clothes from head to toe. No one could recognize them anymore when anyone saw them right now.
Tang Li Xue used her [Ethereal Form] divine ability to pass through the wall and went into the empty room next to her own room to get changed.
After she got changed, Tang Li Xue noticed that this set of ck clothes were not that simple. There were some hidden inscriptions inscribed on these ck clothes that could shut the aura, breathes, scent, and so on of the one who wore them.
Though it was not that useful for Tang Li Xue since her [Ethereal Form] divine ability already has [Conceal] passive skill that could do all of those.
But at least this set of ck clothes would help her cover her face, her silver hair, her fox ears, her foxtail, and even her most easy to recognize topaz blue eyes were covered by the shade effect thanks to this set of ck clothes.
After making sure that she managed to cover everything from her face to her fox ears and foxtail from her own reflection in the silver mirror created from her [Energy Maniption], Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] again and went back to her room where Instructor Mei Lan and the others were already waiting for her.
"I am ready. Should we go to the night banquet right now?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a curious tone.
"Your clone is currently attending that night banquet now, right? Describe the current situation of that night banquet as clearly as you can to me while we are on our way toward there." Instructor Mei Lan ordered Tang Li Xue while leading her and the others out from the room, then all of them were heading together toward the center of Imperial Pce.
Tang Li Xue told the current situation of the night banquet to Instructor Mei Lan without missing any single detail. She even told Instructor Mei Lan about her previous coincidental meeting with the Empress and how she was led by the Empress to sit beside Crown Prince Feng.
Actually, there was nothing important that happened in the night banquet until now.
A few minutes after Elder Yang and Ye Zhen arrived at the banquet, the Emperor started his long speech about this and that.
In short, the Emperor told everyone to calm down and do not be afraid of the serial killer. On the contrary, they must hold the dignity of the Imperial Family and work together to capture the hiding serial killer.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in boredness and thought: ''Old man, it is easy for you to say that, but who would dare to put their life to work together in capturing the serial killer? All of the people here already indulged themselves too long in wealth and authority, so how could you urge them to do something dangerous like that.''
Just when the real Tang Li Xue and the others almost reached the location of the banquet, Instructor Mei Lan immediately raised her hand and whispered: "Halt! We will get caught if we are too close, so we can only wait here."
Instructor Mei Lan told the others while led them to hide on the top of the nearby big tree.
The big tree was quite high, so they could watch the night banquet from the top of that big tree. Although, they were still quite far away from the banquet''s location, so they could not see it that clearly.
"Instructor Lan, what are we waiting for? Would we wait until the banquet is over to make our move and catch that serial killer?" Bing Yi whispered to Instructor Mei Lan and asked with a curious tone.
"No, we will wait for the people from Immortal Sword Sect and that serial killer to make their move first." Instructor Mei Lan replied while kept observing the night banquet from the top of the big tree.
Tang Li Xue nced at Instructor Mei Lan in confusion and pondered: ''So, we will wait for them to sh with each other first?! I really did not get it¡ Why do we need to wait like this? Aren''t we going to get more advantage if we make our move first?''
''I know that the people of Immortal Sword Sect have several Nascent Soul Stage Elders protecting them there, but we can easily threaten them with the lives of so many people there, including Elder Yang. Then we can use that chance to catch that serial killer and escape as fast as we can from here, right?'' Tang Li Xue already secretly formted a n in her mind.
Of course, she would not execute it without Instructor Mei Lan''s permission, so she nced at Instructor Mei Lan in confusion.
Instructor Mei Lan seemed to be able to read what was inside Tang Li Xue''s mind as she suddenly giggled at Tang Li Xue and said: "I know you are confused why we must wait like this because we can get a lot of advantage if we made our moves first. Hmm..."
Instructor Mei Lan thought for a while before chucked and said to Tang Li Xue again: "It would be too bothersome to exin it with words. Let''s just wait and see. You will definitely understand the reason for this sooner orter."
Tang Li Xue tilted her head cutely in confusion, but she still decided to follow Instructor Mei Lan''s words and wait patiently while feeding Yaya and Little Loki with a lot of delicious foods since she did not feed them since yesterday.
After a long and tedious speech, the Emperor finally raised his cup to toast with all the people who attend the banquet tonight.
BBBWWWWWOOOOOSSSHHHHH~!!!
But suddenly, the floor below their feet shone with blinding white light.
All the people at the banquet were so surprised that they dropped the cup on their grasp in shock. Many of them started to panic and screaming in fright.
Chapter 374: Forced Inspection!
Chapter 374: Forced Inspection!
''It is finally begun!'' The expression of Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, Tang Li Xue, and her perfect copy immediately became stern.
The blinding white light rose toward the night sky and turned into a giant cage of light.
The giant cage of light confined all the guests, including the Emperor, Empress, Crown Prince Feng, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, and even Elder Yang inside it.
All the guests in the night banquet were already running around in panic like the crowds of the headless chickens, but the Emperor still looked very calm as he slowly stood up from his golden dragon seat.
"Everyone, calm down! Do not move and stay where you are if you do not want to die!" The Emperor suddenly shouted out loud with a solemn expression.
But all of the people here were too anxious and panicked to listen to the Emperor''s order right now.
Some of them were even identally pushed away by the crowds and fell toward the cage of light.
"AAAAARRGGHHHH~!!!"
"AAAAHHHHHH~!!!"
The moment their bodies touched the cage of light, their bodies were actually engulfed by the cage of light and turned into ashes in only a few seconds.
The other people who saw that scene felt very horrified in an instant. They screamed in fright and quickly back out as far as they could from the cage of light.
In the end, they did not have any other choice than to obey the order from the Emperor and stopped moving around so carelessly in panic like before.
The Emperor looked around and waited patiently for all the people here to calm down first before talking again.
"Do all of you stupid and coward people have calm down? I actually wanted to exin that this array of Revealing Light Swords was created by our guests from Immortal Sword Sect to catch the serial killer disguised himself and hid among us. But since all of you did not listen to my order, then I want to let all of you see the effect of this array with your own eyes to make you calm down." The Emperor said to everyone with a cold tone.
All the guests there became dumbfounded by Emperor''s cold words.
They could not believe that the Emperor has a heart to not even warn them about this matter beforehand.
All of them here were the members of the Imperial Family after all. Although, most of them were only distant rtives of the emperor such as the emperor''s uncle, the nephews from the Emperor''s uncle, the cousins of the Emperors, and so on, but they still have some blood rtions with the Emperor.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy secretly sneered mockingly at the Emperor and thought: ''What ame excuse is that?! What he wanted the most must be for the serial killer to act on impulse and jumped out to escape when the array was suddenly activated before. Unfortunately, the serial killer is smarter than he thought, so the serial killer still did not make any move yet until now.''
''But since he said it like that, then it means he and the people from Immortal Sword Sect have their next n that required obedience from all the people here. I wonder what their next n is?'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy pondered for a few moments while silently nced at Elder Yang from the corner of her eyes.
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not bother mentioning what was on her mind or asking Elder Yang anything. She only raised her cup and drank her tea while silently watching the performance in front of her.
She also kept tracking Crown Prince Feng''s every movement carefully with her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability, so she would notice it in an instant if Crown Prince Feng suddenly made his move.
¡..
¡
.
The real Tang Li Xue watched the cage of light in awe from afar and asked Instructor Mei Lan with a soft curious tone: "Instructor Lan, how could you guess that they already prepared such a grandiose trap for the serial killer?"
"It''s only my hunch. You can guess many things and avoid it too if you have more knowledge and experience in the future." Instructor Mei Lan replied to Tang Li Xue.
"Aren''t this bad for the serial killer and us? We could not barge in to catch or help out the serial killer anymore with that cage of light obstructing us like this, and the serial killer also could not escape from there even if she used her illusion-type divine ability." Hei Yinghao frowned deeply and asked.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded her head while frowned deeper too in worry.
She pondered for a while before replied: "Let''s wait for now and see what will happen next first before deciding what we will doter. I am quite curious about what they will do now to find the serial killer."
¡..
¡
.
While Instructor Mei Lan and the others chatted quietly on the top of a big tree, the Emperor and Elder Yang prepared something for ten minutes or so.
After that, the Emperor called all the maids and servants, then ordered them to distribute a cup of wine to every person there.
"This is the special wine prepared by Elder Yang from Immortal Sword Sect that would forcefully expose the serial killer''s disguise, so everyone here must drink it without any exception! If you refuse to drink it, then you would be confirmed as the serial killer and executed on the spot! So everyone, cheers!" The Emperor shouted out loud with a cold tone.
Then the Emperor drank a cup of wine in one gulp without any hesitation as an example for the others and flipped his cup upside down to show that it was already emptied.
All of the Emperor''s most trusted subjects immediately imitated the Emperor and drank the wine in one gulp without any hesitation too.
Some of the guests there still felt hesitant and afraid, but in the end, they decided to grit their teeth and drink the wine too with their eyes closed.
The only people left who still have not drunk the Elder Yang''s special wine yet were the Imperial Family members.
They were already pampered too much by the Emperor''s backing and authority. They always act arrogantly all this time, so they were not ustomed when they got forced to do something like this.
Some of them even dared to question the Emperor''s order right now and shouted: "Uncle, this wine can really force the serial killer out? Then doesn''t it mean this wine is poisoned? I¡ I do not want to drink something poisoned¡ Can I¡"
The person talking was actually the Emperor''s cousin, but before he could even finish his words, the Emperor himself already gave a signal by waving his hand, and suddenly the head of that person flew away from his body.
All the people nearby him yelled and screamed in shock and fright as they immediately distanced themselves from the headless corpse.
"Pick one! Drink it now or DIEEE~!" The Emperor mercilessly shouted with cold killing intent.
Most people here were still unwilling to drink the wine, but they did not have any other choice right now.
They could only grit their teeth to push away their reluctance and closed their eyes, then drank the wine in one gulp.
After a few whiles, Elder Yang suddenly stood up from his seat and pointed at several people from the crowds, then said: "Kill all of these people! They dare to pretend to drink the wine while secretly get rid of it."
The elders of the Immortal Sword Sect did not even bother to ask for the Emperor''s confirmation. They moved almost in an instant and beheaded the people that Elder Yang had pointed before in a blink of an eye.
The Emperor closed his eyes in pain and sadness. He actually did not want to do this to his own people. These people here were his family members after all.
But he did not have any choice other than followed Elder Yang''s n in order to catch the serial killer.
All the people here could no longer hesitate, and they immediately drank the special wine in fright.
Only several people with the highest position in Feng Empire still have not drunk the special wine yet.
Such as the Empress Dowager, the Empress, the Emperor''s concubines, Crown Prince Feng, the other princes, princesses, and so on...
Of course, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was also one of them.
She held the cup that contains the special wine and carefully tried to detect something strange from it with her [Extrasensory Perception] while kept staring at it.
Unfortunately, she still did not manage to find anything strange contained in this wine yet.
''Even if this wine has poison in it, there should not be a problem for me, right? My [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline can probably neutralize it, right? Sigh... Unfortunately, I still do not know if my [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline could really neutralize all kinds of poison or not.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought while kept hesitating.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nced at Crown Prince Feng and saw that he was also hesitating in drinking the wine.
''That Elder Yang is really damned! Is this wine only the deception to bait out the serial killer or not?'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy bit her pink lips while cursing Elder Yang in her heart.
She was only a perfect copy of Tang Li Xue, so of course, she did not afraid of death, but she really afraid that her identity as a fox would be uncovered if she drank this special wine.
Chapter 375: Instructor Mei Lans Brilliant Advice!
Chapter 375: Instructor Mei Lan''s Brilliant Advice!
Even the real Tang Li Xue started to feel hesitant and pondered her next action carefully.
"Tell us what happened there in more detail to us." Instructor Mei Lan instantly knew in a single nce from Tang Li Xue''s current expression that she was in a dilemma right now, so she decided to ask about it.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao also stared at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with curiosity and worry.
In fact, Instructor Mei Lan and the others could no longer see what happened there anymore right now because the location of the night banquet had already beenpletely covered by the cage of light.
"Instructor Lan¡" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anxiousness and started to tell what happened inside the cage of light without missing any single detail.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply after she heard all of the information from Tang Li Xue and muttered: "I never think that they will go that far to find the serial killer. It seems they are really anxious this time."
After pondering it carefully for a while, Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes suddenly brightened a lot and said: "Ah, that is right! It is already ''that'' time! I see... So, that is why they anxiously wanted to find the serial killer andplete their mission as soon as possible."
"Th... ''That''?! What is ''that''?! They have something more important to do after this mission?!" Hei Yinghao asked with a curious tone.
"Yes! It almost the time for Inheritance Ground Tablet to open." Instructor Mei Lan nodded while replied to Hei Yinghao.
This time, it was Bing Yi who got curious and asked: "Inheritance Ground Tablet?! What is that? Is that the ce''s name or a treasure''s name? But Instructor Lan said open¡ So, it should the name of a ce, right? Can we get something good from there?"
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and answered Bing Yi''s question: "It is a separated pocket dimension. There are so many good things inside there, but we, Beast Race, could not learn martial arts, so we cannot enter there. Except if¡"
Instructor Mei Lan halted her words while nced at Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan thought that Tang Li Xue already have a martial soul, so she could probably learn martial arts too, right?
Even if Tang Li Xue could not learn any martial arts yet, but she could still copy it with her [Mirror of the Moon] divine ability, right?
However, Instructor Mei Lan was still only half-sure if Tang Li Xue could really enter Inheritance Ground Tablet with copied martial arts.
Also, Foxes Hunting Festival was only less than two months away from now.
Even though there were so many good things at Inheritance Ground Tablet, but how could it bepared to the Foxes Hunting Festival that would be participated by all the foxes under the Spirit Beast Rank in Immortal World!
The difference in scale between Inheritance Ground Tablet and Foxes Hunting Festival was just toorge, just like the unknown localpetition and the grandest world-level tournament.
But then again, Tang Li Xue''s strength was still too low right now, if her strength did not make a lot more progress than her current self, she would be destined to not be able to gain much from the fiercepetition in Foxes Hunting Festival where all kinds of terrifying genius foxes would participate.
Instructor Mei Lan wanted to let Tang Li Xue and the others participate in Foxes Hunting Festival for the first time to open their eyes and see all geniuses from the other branches of Myriad Foxes Academy from the other continents to suppress their self-satisfaction and arrogance but, of course, she also did not want them to fail too early since it would be too embarrassing for her as their instructor.
"Let''s forget about that for now and focus on our current mission first. We will discuss that after we managed toplete this missionter." Instructor Mei Lan said to her three students.
"Ummm¡ Instructor Lan, should my perfect copy drink that special wine or not? Is there some chance that special wine is only a bluff to scare the serial killer so she would expose herself? Or¡ maybe I should just make my perfect copy retreat by unsummoning it?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a tone filled with anxiousness.
Instructor Mei Lan pondered carefully for a few moments before replied: "It would be better if you can make your perfect clone avoid drinking it. Looking at their effort and the sacrifice they have been made, the chance of that Elder Yang to only bluffing is really infinitesimal."
"The clearest evidence of this is that even your perfect clone cannot detect anything wrong with that special wine. If they really want to bluff the serial killer, at least they would need to make that the serial killer could detect something strange contained in that special wine, right? The reason why you cannot sense anything strange in that special wine means that they do their best to not let anyone sense or realize about what is contained inside the special wine." Instructor Mei Lan once again showed her terrifying deduction to her students.
Tang Li Xue nodded in realization and replied: "I understand! But¡ what should my perfect copy do right now? It seems they force everyone inside the cage of light to drink it without any exception!"
Instructor Mei Lan giggled gently when she heard Tang Li Xue''s words, and a trace of mischievousness shone from her eyes.
Tang Li Xue and the other shuddered in fright when they saw Instructor Mei Lan acted like this.
"That is easy! You only need to tantly refuse to drink it." Instructor Mei Lan replied with a nonchnt tone.
"Wh¡ What?! How can it be that easy?! Instructor Lan, please stop joking with me! They already killed every single person who dares to refuse to drink it already without any mercy!" Tang Li Xue widened her eyes and answered in disbelief.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and gave some hints to Tang Li Xue: "Stupid! The identity of your perfect clone is different from the real you. Don''t tell me that you really forget who invite your clone to Imperial Pce and the banquet tonight?!"
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter like a pair of stars andughed free of worry right now after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words and, she said without thinking: "That is right! I am really so stupid! How could I not even realize this yet?! Ais... Instructor Lan, you are really the true genius!"
Instructor Mei Lan also smiled at Tang Li Xue. She became even fonder at Tang Li Xue since Tang Li Xue managed to decipher her advice with only a few hints, so she decided to add a few more suggestions for Tang Li Xue: "Actually, you do not need to refuse to drink the special wine so tantly. You only need to say that you will only drink it after everyone there drank it. It is not difficult, right?"
Tang Li Xue nodded at Instructor Mei Lan and told it to her perfect copy.
¡..
¡
.
Meanwhile, at the night banquet inside the cage of light, the eyes of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also brightened in confidence as she thought: ''As I expected from Instructor Lan, such a genius n¡ Sigh¡ Even with my several upgraded skills, I am still so far from her.''
"All right! All the guests have already drunk Elder Yang''s special wine! Now it is the turn of all the people who sit at the high-ranking seat." The Emperor said while looking at all the people sitting on the high-ranking seat.
The people who sat on the high-ranking seat were all the people with the closest rtionship with the Emperor, such as Empress Dowager, the Empress, the Emperor''s concubines, Crown Prince Feng, the other princes, princesses, and so on.
Since Tang Li Xue was led by the Empress to sat beside Crown Prince Feng, so she was sat on the high-ranking seat too right now, including all of the core disciples from Immortal Sword Sect like Ye Zhen and his group too.
All of the core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect have full trust in Elder Yang, so all of them drank the special wine without any hesitation at all.
But not all of the other people who sat on the high-ranking seat fully trusted Elder Yang.
Empress Dowager, the Empress, the Emperor''s concubines, Crown Prince Feng, the other princes, princesses, and so on, have really high positions in Feng Empire, just below the Emperor himself, so they were not willing to drink something that might be a lethal poison just like that.
"All of you are not an exception for this rule. Drink it now or got executed on the spot!" The Emperor shouted to all of them with a stern voice as if he was giving an Imperial Decree.
Without any other choice left, they could only gnashed their teeth and closed their eyes to push away their fear and hesitation, then drank the special wine in one gulp.
In ten minutes or so, almost all the people who sat on the high-ranking seat already drunk Elder Yang''s special wine, except for Empress Dowager, the Empress, Crown Prince Feng, and¡ Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Ye Zhen already saw that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not have any intention to drink the wine a few minutes ago, but he did not have any power here to make an exception since Elder Yang already said that everyone here must drink it.
He also did not dare to persuade Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy since he could see that Tang Li Xue was ?already determined to not drink it at all from her resolute eyes.
Elder Yang only realized that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had not drunk his wine now, so he tried to coax her to drink it.
Elder Yang smiled gently at her and said: "Miss Chou, why have you not drink my special brewed wine yet? I can guarantee that my wine is not poisonous at all with my name, so you can drink it without any worries."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyughed mockingly and said: "Elder Yang, first you invite me toe into the Imperial Pce while the serial killer is still hiding inside it. Then, you invite me again toe at the night banquet to only get locked up like this, and now, you want to force me to drink your wine?!"
Chapter 376: Discovered!
Chapter 376: Discovered!
Elder Yang got stunned and muttered in surprise to defend himself: "I¡ I am sorry, but I do not have any meaning to¡"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately cut his words and said with a cold tone: "It looks like I have to remind you again. All of this mess here has nothing to do with me. You are the one who dragged me into this mess. I should still be happily enjoying my sight-seeing to look at the scenery around Tang Feng City without any care about the serial killer and whatever it is if you did not drag me here. Elder Yang do you really hate me so much that you even bothered to do all of these to me?"
Elder Yang felt very guilty after he heard the ming words from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy. He wanted to apologize to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but before he could say anything¡
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly added again: "Oh, and also¡ Do not forget that I did not even want to follow you toe here at first, but it was you who kept forcing me toe here! You even ckmail me into apanying you for a few days in the end! I actually do not want to embarrass you by saying all of these in front of so many people, but it seems you really did not have any guilty conscience at all, so I am forced to do this."
Any beauty could easily trigger anyone''s pity and yearn, not to mention a stunning kingdom-toppling beauty like Tang Li Xue. All of the people here already felt extremely pitiful to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
From the perspective of all the people here, her every word was true. She had nothing to do at all with all of this mess.
If not for Elder Yang''s invitation that made her a special guest here, she would certainly not involve in any of this mess.
It could be said the one who wronged her the most was Elder Yang.
She must have a very good temperament and great patience since she did not even throw any tantrums and med Elder Yang for it until now.
After thinking about it, all of the people here started to think that Elder Yang was really bullying her too much.
Elder Yang: "¡.."
Elder Yang already becamepletely speechless right now. He did not even know what to say anymore.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy pushed the cup of wine on her table and said again with a chilling cold tone: "Anyway, I do not want to drink this possibly poisoned wine of yours. I want to see if you really would kill me because of it. I also want to see if all of these are actually your n to push me to death."
Elder Yang nced at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy for a few moments in silence, while Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was staring back fearlessly at Elder Yang.
For some unknown reason, Elder Yang''s heart winched in terrible pain when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stared at him with a pair of cold chilling topaz blue eyes as if she was staring at a malicious stranger.
''Stop it!''
''Do not stare at me! Don''t you dare to stare at me like that with Xiao Bai''s eyes!''
''I¡ really cannot stand it¡ No, I really hate it! If you kept staring at me like that¡ I might really do something bad to you¡''
Elder Yang''s expression turned darker as his figure immediately shed, and he appeared in front of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in an instant.
''Holy crap! He is already starting to y rough now! Oh no, this is bad¡ I might push him too far just now!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy started to regret her recent pushy action.
Actually, she only wanted to bluff Elder Yang to trigger his guilty conscience toward her. But if he started to get angry at her, she already nned to take a step back and said that at least she would be thest one who will drink that special wer.
Unfortunately for her, it looked like Elder Yang did not n to let her say anything anymore.
"Wait, I¡" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said as she wanted to exin it, but Elder Yang already stood right in front of her.
Elder Yang suddenly stretched his hand forward, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already prepared herself.
She nned to avoid Elder Yang''s hand, but who knew that Elder Yang actually did not n to touch Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Elder Yang''s hand actually grabbed the cup of wine in front of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and drank it himself in one gulp.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waspletely dumbfounded. She widened her eyes and dropped her jaw without realizing it.
Even the Emperor and the other people were also dumbfounded by Elder Yang''s action.
After drank the wine in the cup, Elder Yang crushed the cup in his grasp into dust, and then he stretched his hand again toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
This time, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still in her dumbfounded state, so she did not even have time to avoid Elder Yang''s hand.
Elder Yang firmly grasped the chin of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy between his thumb and index finger.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy winced in pain when Elder Yang used too much strength to hold her chin. She wanted to shout in anger and scold Elder Yang for it, but her words were stuck on her throat when she saw Elder Yang''s eyes.
Elder Yang''s obsidian eyes have a tint of crimson light at the center of them.
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] could faintly feel insanity and madness hidden deep inside his obsidian eyes. It made Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shivered a bit in shock and fright.
Elder Yang bent his body forward and got closer to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy until their faces were only a few centimeters away from each other, then expressionlessly muttered: "You do not like my wine, right? I already drink it for you. So, can you stop staring at me like that and give me your bright smile?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could even feel Elder Yang''s hot breathes on her skin right now, but she suddenly felt that something bad will happen if she refused to do it.
It was not her [Extrasensory Perception] that sensed it, but it was more like her hunch.
So, she subconsciously curved her pink lips upward and smiled beautifully like the most beautiful flower blooming to Elder Yang.
After looking at her captivating smile, all of the ufortable dark feelings in Elder Yang''s heart had vanished in an instant.
He smiled gently back at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy while softly pinched her delicate nose and said: "Good. You are really beautiful, but you will be even sweeter and lovely if you smile like this often."
Elder Yang released her nose and walked back to his seat while said: "Miss Chou is my guest. I am the one who personally invited her toe here, so she does not need to drink the wine, but the others must still drink it without any exception!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in relief when Elder Yang got away from her.
''Wait a minute¡ why the hell do I need to feel relief or afraid of him?! Tsk, he even dares to take advantage of me?! I swear I would definitely make him pay for this sooner orter!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought as she pouted her pink lips in displeasure.
That meant only Empress Dowager, the Empress, and Crown Prince Feng that must drink the special wine yet since everyone in this banquet already drank it.
At first, the Empress Dowager did not want to drink this suspicious wine and wanted to argue about it, but she felt much more reassured now since even Elder Yang had already drunk it before her.
The old Empress Dowager raised her cup and drank the wine in one gulp too withoutining.
Meanwhile, Crown Prince Feng still felt really hesitant whether to drink it or not.
The Empress seemed to realize Crown Prince Feng''s hesitation and decided to say something tofort him: "I always believe Elder Yang would never do something to harm us. Since everyone here already drank it, and nothing strange happened to them, then there is no reason for us to worry about it."
"I understand, Royal Mother! Then this son will drink it first to make it sure!" Crown Prince Feng said with a firm tone as he raised his cup and drank the wine in one gulp too.
The Empress smiled gently at her son and nodded at him in approval.
Just when the Empress wanted to praise her son for it, Crown Prince Feng''s expression suddenly turned pale and¡
PPPUUUUFFFFFFF~!!!
He spurted a few mouthfuls of fresh blood from his mouth.
The expressions of the Emperor and the Empress turned aghast in that instant, and they immediately shouted with a worried tone: "Feng er!"
All the people there were also very shocked because of it, but their reaction was one step tootepared to the Emperor and the Empress since both of them already ran toward Crown Prince Feng in haste to check on his condition.
But both the Emperor and the Empress immediately stopped by Elder Yang from approaching the seriously wounded Crown Prince Feng.
Elder Yang exined to them with a cold tone: "Do not approach him so carelessly! He is not your beloved son, Crown Prince Feng, but he is the serial killer in disguise!"
Chapter 377: Struggling to Survive!
Chapter 377: Struggling to Survive!
"What?!" The Emperor and the Empress shouted in surprise at the same time and stared at Crown Prince Feng with a gaze filled with suspicion.
The situation there was turned chaotic in that instant as all of the guests were looking suspiciously at Crown Prince Feng while whispered loudly to each other.
The frail-looking body of the Empress started to shudder violently, and she asked Elder Yang with a trembling voice: "Elder... Elder Yang... If this person is only the serial killer disguising as my son... then where is my real son? Can... Can you... help us find..."
But Elder Yang immediately shook his head before the Empress could finish his word and said with a regretful tone: "I am sorry, but looking at this serial killer''s previous ruthless conduct, this serial killer definitely would never spare Crown Prince Feng''s life and only held him as a hostage. I feel very sorry for the death of your son, but it should be the more reason for us to never let this serial killer escape and kill more people!?"
"My... My beloved son... Feng...? Feng..." The Empress muttered as her body trembled violently, and she passed out because of her shock and sadness for losing her son.
"Ming er!" The Emperor shouted while he ran to catch the fainted Empress before she could fall onto the floor.
Not only the Empress but even the Empress Dowager also fainted when she heard Elder Yang''s words.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly stood up from her seat. She frowned deeply while staring at the kneeling fake Crown Prince Feng.
The fake Crown Prince Feng was so pale, and his blood kept dripping out from his mouth. He seems to sustain serious injuries and looked very weak right now.
''This situation is not looking good at all! Our mission would definitely end up fail if it continues like this! And also, to hell with Elder Yang! What a big liar?! He even dared to say: ''my wine is not poisonous at all, I can guarantee it with my name''! That special wine is clearly poisonous! What a bast*rd!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy continuously cursed Elder Yang in her mind while pondered how to help the serial killer get out of the current situation in haste.
All of the elders from Immortal Sword Sect already surrounded the serial killer from all directions while the core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect swiftly stood in front of all of the guests and instructed them to stay away from the serial killer.
It seems the core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect already prepared to activate some arrays to protect all of the guests from the effect of the fierce battle between the elders of Immortal Sword Sect and the serial killerter.
"Do not kill him yet! Try to catch him alive. I want to interrogate the motive behind his crime." Elder Yang said to all of the elders of Immortal Sword Sect.
All of the elders of the Immortal Sword Sect did not say anything but they only nodded their heads toward Elder Yang.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy carefully observed the cultivation level of these Immortal Sword Sect''s elders from the side and thought: ''Six Core Formation Stage Elders and¡ three Nascent Soul Stage Elders! But Instructor Mei Lan concluded that there should be four Nascent Soul Stage Elders... It looks like there is still one more Nascent Soul Stage Elder that is still hiding to protect Elder Yang from behind.''
When all of the elders of the Immortal Sword Sect made their move to apprehend Crown Prince Feng, the serial killer who still in her disguise as Crown Prince Feng already thought her own n to escape from this situation.
Crown Prince Feng''s pair of eyes shone with mysterious purple light, and all of the elders that wanted to apprehend him started to feel dizzy and nauseous.
The mysterious purple light from his eyes did not only affecting all of the elders from the Immortal Sword Sect around him but also all of the people inside the cage of light!
All of the guests, all of the core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect, including the Emperor of Feng Empire, were affected by the mysterious purple light as all of their eyes started to shine with that mysterious purple light.
But the mysterious purple light has only limited effect on Core Formation Stage elders and Elder Yang.
The mysterious purple light tried to affect their mind and trapped them into some illusions, but the Core Formation Stage elders and Elder Yang kept struggling to resist the effect of that mysterious purple light.
As for the Nascent Soul Stage elders, they were only barely affected by the mysterious purple light. Other than feeling dizzy, headache, and nauseous, they did not even feel any illusion effect of the mysterious purple light.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was also in the effect of the mysterious purple light.
The scene in front of her eyes has changed, and the people around her looked as if they became her enemies that exuded the threatening aura.
But thanks to her quite high Spirit stat, several upgraded skills, and her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability, she could still sense everything around her very clearly, and it did not affect her that much.
''This divine ability is really powerful, but why do I feel that her strength is still not on the level of Spirit rank beast yet? Wait a minute¡ don''t tell me that she is greatly weakened right now because of her serious injuries! This is really bad!'' The expression of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy turned grim when she thought that.
If even Tang Li Xue could realize it, how could Elder Yang did not realize it too?! So Elder Yang immediately ordered the three Nascent Soul Stage elders that currently still hesitating on making their move since they were afraid that Elder Yang has an ident because of that.
"Knock him out right now!" Elder Yang quickly shouted.
After the three Nascent Soul Stage elders heard? Elder Yang''s shout, they immediately approached Crown Prince Feng and swiftly struck their palms to his head.
Crown Prince Feng did not want to get caught by them, so he hastily bent down his back to avoid their strike.
But how could the greatly weakened Crown Prince Feng keep dodging the joint assault of the three Nascent Soul Stage elders?!
The three Nascent Soul Stage elders only attacked for two or three more strikes to cornered Crown Prince Feng and left him with no more way to dodge any more strike.
In fact, if not for the three Nascent Soul Stage elders held their full strength back so they would not identally kill the Crown Prince Feng, they would certainly have already killed Crown Prince Feng since their first attack.
Crown Prince Feng gnashed his teeth as his serious injuries got even more worsened right now because he kept forcing himself to swiftly dodge the iing attack, so he decided to try a different approach this time: "Stop it! If you do not stop now, I will make sure that everyone here will die with me!"
After Crown Prince Feng said so, all of the guests, all of the core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect, and the Emperor of Feng Empire started to grimace in pain while holding their neck as if they got strangled tightly by something right now.
"I might be greatly weakened right now because of my injuries, so I cannot affect you right now with my divine ability, but I can still use it to control all the weaker people here! I can kill all of them as easy as I turned my own palm!" Crown Prince Feng said while sneered coldly at Elder Yang.
Elder Yang silently stared at Crown Prince Feng for a few moments before replied with a nonchnt tone: "Your effort to resist is only futile. I already guess your power beforehand, so I already make a sufficient preparation to counter it."
"Oh, really? Then I really want to see if your sufficient preparation can make any difference right now!" Crown Prince Fengughed maniacally as he activated his divine ability once again, and his target this time was¡ the Emperor of Feng Empire!
The eyes of the Emperor rolled onto the back of his head, and his face started to turn purple.
It seemed that Crown Prince Feng really nned to kill the Emperor of Feng Empire for his revenge and warning to Elder Yang. It was clear that he nned to get ''two birds in one stone'' with his current action.
Elder Yang did not get anxious or panicked. He only shook his head and waved his hand.
In that instant, the Emperor suddenly fainted and fell limply onto the floor.
No, it was not only the Emperor¡ with Elder Yang''s hand wave, every person that drank his special wine fell unconscious in that instant!
All of the guests, all of the core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect, and the Emperor fainted at the same time when Elder Yang waved his hand!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her eyes and dropped her jaw in shock.
''This?! Don''t tell that this is the effect of his special wine?! But¡ how could it be?! That special wine can seriously injure the serial killer and make everyone else fainted with only a wave of his hand?! Really?! I wonder what kind of poison or drug mixed inside that special wine?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought in disbelief.
''Anyway, this situation had turned out for the worst right now! It seems this serial killer would get caught or killed by the people from Immortal Sword Sect if we still did not make our moves soon! I must tell the current situation to Instructor Mei Lan and ask for her further instruction.'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind.
Chapter 378: Giving a Help in Secret!
Chapter 378: Giving a Help in Secret!
"Instructor Lan, I have really bad news." Tang Li Xue said to Instructor Mei Lan with a stern expression.
Instructor Mei Lan only nced back at Tang Li Xue and waited for Tang Li Xue to tell her the bad news.
Tang Li Xue did not want to waste any of her time ying a guessing game with Instructor Mei Lan, so she immediately told everything that happened inside the cage of light to Instructor Mei Lan in detail.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply after she heard everything from Tang Li Xue and muttered softly: "This is very strange¡ Something seems not right here. If the serial killer''s identity is really Zuo Hongzhuang, then it should be impossible for a fox as smart as her to get caught so easily by those people from Immortal Sword Sect like this."
Tang Li Xue felt surprised by Instructor Mei Lan''s suspicion, so she decided to ask again: "Then what should we do now? Should we still secretly observe what will happen from the side like now?"
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and replied with a solemn tone: "No, whether the serial killer is really Zuo Hongzhuang or not, we should never let her fall into those people of Immortal Sword Sect before we can make sure her real identity. It seems we must make our moves now, but¡"
Instructor Mei Lan stared at the cage of light from the top of the big tree and grumbled in displeasure: "That cage of light is really annoying. If my guess is right, that cage of light cannot be breached so easily. I presume we need at least ten minutes or maybe more even if I use my every means to break through it."
"Even Instructor Lan would need at least ten minutes or more?! Just how strong is that cage of light?!" Hei Yinghao suddenly spoke in shock.
Bing Yi did not say anything, but even she widened her eyes in surprise and disbelief at Instructor Mei Lan''s statement.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes at her three overreacted students and exined: "Oracle Mountain Sect may be a sect that proficient in formations and arrays, but their elders'' overall strength is quite low. That cage of light may seem not profound enough and easier to crack, but do not forget that it is supported by the four Nascent Soul Stage elders. Do all of you really think I can overpower the four Nascent Soul Stage elders and destroy the barrier they set together so easily?"
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao finally understood where the real difficulty lies after hearing Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation.
"What should we do, Instructor Lan? It looks like that serial killer cannot hold on for much longer, let alone for ten minutes or more." Tang Li Xue asked with an anxious tone.
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xue and replied: "Is there a need to ask something obvious like that? Then you must do something to help that serial killer, so she couldst for ten minutes or so to not get caught or killed by those elders of Immortal Sword Sect."
"What?! M... ME~?! Instructor Lan, you must be joking with me, right? I cannot even defeat Core Formation Stage cultivator by myself, so how could I help that serial killer fight against those several Nascent Soul Stage elders?! I will just kill myself if I do that!" Tang Li Xue said while quickly shook her head to reject Instructor Mei Lan''s suggestion.
Instructor Mei Lanughed at Tang Li Xue''s words and criticized her a bit: "Silly girl, do I really said that you must help the serial killer by fighting head-on against those Nascent Soul Stage elders? Can''t you even think of a n without using violence? There are actually many ways for you to help her without even fighting head-on with anyone."
Tang Li Xue blushed in embarrassment when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words and murmured: "I am really sorry, Instructor Lan, but I..."
"All right, since our time is very tight, so I will just tell you what you need to do now. But next time, be sure to be more flexible in your way of thinking. Resorting violence and fighting head-on should be ourst resort, especially since we are not from the rude Lizard n but well-educated Fox Race." Instructor Mei Lan cut Tang Li Xue''s words and said again.
Instructor Mei Lan actually said all of these not only to lecture Tang Li Xue but also to tell Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi about it.
After that, Instructor Mei Lan immediately told Tang Li Xue about everything she must do to help out the serial killer.
The n actually needs cooperation with the serial killer who was still disguised as Crown Prince Feng to work, but Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue were very sure that she would agree to do it since this n was clearly to help her out after all.
While Tang Li Xuemunicated with her perfect copy and told her about the n from Instructor Mei Lan, Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao already started their own task to breach the cage of light.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, only a few moments had passed in the cage of light, but the situation of fake Crown Prince Feng had considerably deteriorated than before.
The fake Crown Prince Feng kept struggling fiercely even after the three Nascent Soul Stage elders fought together to catch him.
One of the three Nascent Soul Stage elders even already grabbed one of the fake Crown Prince Feng''s hands just now, but he forcefully pulled back with all of his strength, and it made his wrist snapped and his forearm was separated from his upper elbow.
His blood was sttering everywhere, and his face turned even paler as he coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood again, but his expression still looked cold and determined as usual. He did not even scream or shout in pain.
However, losing his left hand made the fighting more difficult for the fake Crown Prince Feng.
It did not take long for the other Nascent Soul Stage elders to grab his right shoulder, but once again, Crown Prince Feng forcefully took a step back using all of his remaining strength, and it made the bones at his right shoulder broke.
Although he managed to escape from that Nascent Soul Stage elder''s powerful clutch, but it created a gaping wound on his right shoulder.
At this rate, it would only take a few more moves from the three Nascent Soul Stage elders to bring down the fake Crown Prince Feng and catch him since there was no ce to escape in this cage of light.
Even if the fake Crown Prince Feng decided to attack Elder Yang or the other unconscious people here like the Emperor, Empress, or the others in desperation, the fourth Nascent Soul Stage elder that was currently in hiding would prevent him from doing that.
And also, the special wine that Elder Yang gave to everyone previously could help to protect them at the most crucial timeter.
Everyone might be curious about what was contained in that special wine, including Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan.
Was it poisons, drugs, or anesthetic?
But no one could guess that Elder Yang was actually only blended his own blood that contained [Blood of Lust] with ordinary wine to create it.
When his tiny drop of [Blood of Lust] entered any person''s body, he could still easily control it and do many things to that person with it.
For example, he could scan that person''s real look,? gender, or even race from inside that person''s body. That was the reason why Elder Yang could know that Crown Prince Feng was a fake one.
Not only that, if that person was weaker than him, then he could make them fainted or even kill them in only a single thought.
Even someone powerful like the fake Crown Prince Feng could get seriously injured when Elder Yang detonated that tiny drop of [Blood of Lust] from inside his body.
Of course, to do all of those things, the user of [Blood of Lust] needs to have perfect control over it. Even the previous owner of [Blood of Lust], the elder from Blood Devil Sect, could not do it, but Elder Yang could easily do it.
It was concrete proof that his title as the greatest human genius in Lightwind Continent was not only for a show.
Even everything that happened in this night banquet was already in Elder Yang''s prediction, and there was no ce for the fake Crown Prince Feng to escape from his wless n.
Just like the spider web, it would strangle the fake Crown Prince Feng slowly but sure until he could no longer move in the end.
Unfortunately, there were still a few things that were still out of expectation even for the prudent genius like Elder Yang...
For example, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy refused to drink his special wine before, and it left a hole where both Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and the fake Crown Prince Feng could exploit ording to Instructor Mei Lan''s n!
Just when the fake Crown Prince Feng fell into a more precarious situation as one of Nascent Soul Stage elders grabbed his right hand this time tightly, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy finally decided to help out the fake Crown Prince Feng.
''Use your illusion to me quickly. Don''t worry... I am on your side. My people will help us out from here soon, so we only need to stall for ten minutes.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy secretly whispered to the fake Crown Prince Feng with her [Lock-On Telepathy] skill.
Chapter 379: Taking a Hostage!
Chapter 379: Taking a Hostage!
The fake Crown Prince Feng secretly nced at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in surprise, and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nodded at him to reassure him.
The fake Crown Prince Feng quickly regained hisposure.
His right hand had already been grabbed so tightly by the Nascent Soul Stage elder, and he almost lost his right hand too right now, so he would definitely get caught in a couple more seconds.
He knew that he did not have any other choice than to believe in Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy for now.
Crown Prince Feng''s pair of eyes started shining with mysterious purple light once again, just like before.
Topaz blue eyes of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also shone with mysterious purple light, and she became dazed in that instant.
Actually, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could resist the effect of the fake Crown Prince Feng''s illusion-type divine ability, but she decided to not resist it this time and let the illusion affected her mind.
''I am a nobody for them, so having me in your control may not be enough for you to bargain with them, so you MUST use me to approach that Elder Yang right after you took control of me and take him as your hostage too.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy warned the fake Crown Prince Feng with a stern tone using her [Lock-On Telepathy] skill.
The fake Crown Prince Feng felt really surprised again when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could still maintain her awareness even after she voluntarily fell into his illusion-type divine ability. She could even still use her [Lock-On Telepathy] skill and give him some advice.
But the fake Crown Prince Feng immediately carried out the advice from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy without any hesitation this time.
Of course, Elder Yang and the other Nascent Soul Stage elders also realized that the fake Crown Prince Feng was currently nned to do something since his eyes suddenly shone with mysterious purple light.
"Quickly arrest him now! You can knock him out if he still tried to resist!" Elder Yang ordered the Nascent Soul Stage elders in a solemn tone while frowned deeper.
The Nascent Soul Stage elders also increased their movement and attack speed to subdue the fake Crown Prince Feng as quickly as possible.
The Nascent Soul Stage elder that grabbed the fake Crown Prince Feng''s right hand even deliberately dislocated the joints until it made a loud cracking noise, so the fake Crown Prince Feng could no longer fight them back.
Just when the Nascent Soul Stage elders almost brought down the fake Crown Prince Feng, suddenly¡
"HALT~!!!" A luscious sweet voice shouted out of nowhere.
The three Nascent Soul Stage elders reflexively turned around toward where the voice came from.
They were very shocked when they saw that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already held a military sword she got from nearby fainted guards and put it on Elder Yang''s neck from behind.
But the three Nascent Soul Stage elders immediately realized that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was currently under the effect of fake Crown Prince Feng''s illusion ability when they saw her eyes were shone with mysterious purple light now.
The fake Crown Prince Feng coldlyughed and said: "Hehehe¡ Do you really actually think that my life is already in your grasp?! Unfortunately for you all, I managed to get your leader because you are looking down on me too much."
When the other two Nascent Soul Stage elders wanted to just kill the fake Crown Prince Feng out of anger, the oldest Nascent Soul Stage elder immediately raised his hand to stop them and nced at Elder Yang for further instruction.
"What do you want? We can discuss it slowly as long as you release her from your illusion." Elder Yang calmly said with azy tone as if the one who got threatened was not him at all.
"Dream on! Do you really think I am a fool?! First, let me kill that dumb Emperor, then you need to dispel this light barrier as fast as possible and let me escape from here. Only then I will release that girl and you!" The fake Crown Prince Feng replied with a coarse voice as fresh blood kept flowing out from his mouth.
Elder Yang quickly shook his head and said: "I am sorry, but I cannot let you kill the Emperor even if you threaten my life. But I can still let you out from here if you let Miss Chou go. You can even use me as your hostage until you go out from here. How about it?"
The fake Crown Prince Feng pondered it carefully for a few moments while he kept staring suspiciously at Elder Yang''s expression.
"All right, that Emperor can keep his life for now. But I will never release that girl or you until I managed to get away from here! Now, open this light barrier and let me out from here!" The fake Crown Prince Feng replied again.
"Okay¡ This Revealing Light Swords Formation is set by those three elders and me. It is incredibly hard to dispel it, so it will take quite a lot of time to do it. You need to wait patiently for it since I must be moving around to point at the hidden runes to those three elders so they can disperse it for us. Do you agree with it?" Elder Yang exined to the fake Crown Prince Feng and asked for permission to move around.
"This¡" The fake Crown Prince Feng knew that everything Elder Yang told him was true, but how could he let Elder Yang go just like that.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could sense that the fake Crown Prince Feng started to hesitate, so she immediately reminded him again with her [Lock-On Telepathy]: ''Do not be fooled by him! He is the mastermind of all these traps, so he is really smart and cunning! Just stick with the first n and stall for ten minutes until my peoplee to bring us out from here!''
The fake Crown Prince Feng nodded his head a bit to signal that he understood.
"I do not want to hear any of your excuses!" The fake Crown Prince Feng shouted back in anger to Elder Yang as he controlled Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to drag Elder Yang closer toward him.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still pointing the military sword very close to Elder Yang''s neck while walking toward the fake Crown Prince Feng, so Elder Yang did not have any other choice than to follow her.
But after Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy brought Elder Yang close enough to the fake Crown Prince Feng, Elder Yang''s eyes glinted coldly as he suddenly flicked the military sword on his neck away with his finger.
Of course, he did not actually use his finger to knock the military sword away. He made his finger bleed with his own nail in secret while distracting the fake Crown Prince Feng with his conversation, then condense a small blood knife on his index finger using the [Blood of Lust] in his blood.
The sharpness of the small blood knife condensed from his blood was far surpassing the military sword, and it easily cut the military sword in the grasp of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in two.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had lost control of her body, including her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability because she was still under the effect of the fake Crown Prince Feng''s illusion-type divine ability.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only sense everything with her five senses right now, so she failed to notice what Elder Yang secretly did before because she was still stood right behind Elder Yang while pointing the military sword in her grasp to Elder Yang''s neck.
If she sensed it with her [Extrasensory Perception], she would already warn the fake Crown Prince Feng about it. Unfortunately, it was already toote now.
''Damn, I knew it! He is such a cunning and dishonest fellow! He even dared to ckmail me in front of so many people like it was nothing before! So how could he treat the unknown serial killer so sincere here?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined and cursed Elder Yang for his crooked behavior in her mind.
Under Elder Yang''s perfect control, the blood knife on his index finger changed into a thin but very sharp thread of blood!
The thread of blood shed so quickly and coiled around the fake Crown Prince Feng''s neck in an instant!
The fake Crown Prince Feng wanted to duck down to dodge the thread of blood, but his movement speed was a bit slow since the sharp blood thread was already wrapped around his neck.
Elder Yang only needed one pull to separate the fake Crown Prince Feng''s head from his neck.
''This is bad! I cannot just watch and let this happen!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately realized it and decided to make his move to help the fake Crown Prince Feng.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy swiftly swung her palm and chopped toward the sharp thread of blood that extended from Elder Yang''s hand to Crown Prince Feng''s neck.
Her palm was coating with beautiful silver light, and it created a silver arc on the air as she swung it downward toward the sharp thread of blood.
[Moon Splitter]!
Elder Yang: "?!"
The sharp thread of blood that extended from Elder Yang''s hand to Crown Prince Feng''s neck was cut by Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Splitter].
Elder Yang felt quite surprised by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy swiftly reaction time because the reaction of any person under the mind-control or illusion usually got slowed down a lot, and all of their senses would turn dull, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy seemedpletely unaffected by it right now.
Chapter 380: Execution Signal!
Chapter 380: Execution Signal!
Elder Yang immediately changed his n.
Even though the sharp thread of blood had been severed by [Moon Splitter] from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but half the thread of blood already coiled on the fake Crown Prince Feng''s neck.
Under Elder Yang''s wless control, the thread of blood on the fake Crown Prince Feng''s neck was tightening all of a sudden.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy knew Elder Yang would never give up that easily, and she already observed Elder Yang''s every movement after she severed the sharp thread of blood.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately realized it when half the thread of blood on the fake Crown Prince Feng''s neck was tightening up, so her palm was shing with silvery light once more as she swung forward toward the fake Crown Prince Feng''s neck with lightning speed.
Because she executed her [Moon Splitter] in a hurry at this moment, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy subconsciously incorporated the [Combination of [Drifting Clouds Palms] and [Crouching Tiger w] (Transcendence State)] that she copied from Junior Martial Sister Jian yesterday into her [Moon Splitter].
The end result was actually out of her expectation.
[You have incorporated the essence of martial arts into Moon Splitter. Your mastery over Moon Splitter had increased by leap and bound.]
[Congrattion! You have upgraded Moon Splitter to Moonlight sh!]
[Moonlight sh!]
Even Elder Yang and the fake Crown Prince Feng failed to see the movement of Tang Li Xue''s palm this time since she swung her palm with unbelievable speed.
They could only saw a silver light shed, and the sharp thread of blood on the fake Crown Prince Feng''s neck had already been cut into small pieces.
''Eh? What... [Moonlight sh]?! It is an upgrade version of my [Moon Splitter]?! So, the skill can also get upgraded by itself just like that?! No... The system notification said the skill got upgraded because I incorporated the essence of martial arts into it? Woah, this is awesome! Doesn''t it mean I can incorporate all of the martial arts I copied with [Mirror of the Moon] with my skill?!'' Tang Li Xue''s eyes brightened a lot when she thought about it.
Unfortunately, it was not an appropriate time to think about it since their predicament was far from over yet.
The three Nascent Soul Stage elders already decided to make their moves too right at this time as they approached the fake Crown Prince Feng and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from three different directions.
''Damn it! This looks bad! I really do not want to fight head-on with any Nascent Soul Stage cultivator yet!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought in anxiousness.
But both the fake Crown Prince Feng and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already surrounded by the three Nascent Soul Stage elders in an instant, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to grab Elder Yang again as her hostage, but Elder Yang stood a bit far away from her right now.
Right at this crucial timing, the fake Crown Prince Feng suddenly jumped toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from behind and grabbed her neck tightly with his w, then shouted: "Stop! Do note close or I will kill her this instant!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes in annoyance and said to the fake Crown Prince Feng with her [Lock-On Telepathy]: ''You idiot! Why the hell do you still taking me as your hostage?! Didn''t I already say that I am a nobody for them?! They will never care about my life or death at all!''
''Do I still have any other choice right now?! At least, I still have to try it, right?'' The fake Crown Prince Feng shouted back to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in exasperation with his own [Telepathy] skill.
But the three Nascent Soul Stage elders only hesitated for a few moments before decided to keep approaching the fake Crown Prince Feng.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was nothing more than a nobody for them after all. It did not matter if she identally got killed here.
They only hesitated for a few moments because it was really a pity for a peerless beauty like Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to get killed here.
Unfortunately, these three Nascent Soul Stage elders already passed their puberty a very long time ago.? They were already so old and even almost reached the end of their life, so how could they still got seduced by Tang Li Xue''s beauty.
''Uargh~!!! I knew it! They will never care about me at all! But it is still hurt my feeling when they started attacking just like that without caring about my safety even one bit¡'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought while sighed in frustration as she readied herself to at least avoid or defend herself from the powerful attacks of these three Nascent Soul Stage elders.
"Halt!" Elder Yang shouted all of a sudden to stop the three Nascent Soul Stage elders from attacking.
Elder Yang red at the fake Crown Prince Feng, and his eyes were filled with frightening killing intent.
Even the fake Crown Prince Feng was shuddered in shock and horror by Elder Yang''s sudden change.
''You are lying! Look! He seems super care about your safety! Are you sure that you are really not on his side?'' The fake Crown Prince Fengined to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy using his [Telepathy] skill.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes and replied with her [Lock-On Telepathy]: ''Just focus on doing your part without any mistakes this time. Do not take unnecessary actions anymore! We only need to stall for ten minutes right now. You just need to talk or chat with him for ten minutes until my people arrive.''
"Let her go right now and I will promise to let you go, if not, I will definitely make you regret not dying so soon." Elder Yang spoke with a cold chilling tone.
"You are really making fun of me, aren''t you?! Do you really think I will believe your empty words for the second time?!" The fake Crown Prince Feng gnashed his teeth in anger and shouted back at Elder Yang.
''Correction¡ you never even believe any of his words for the first time, so howe there is a second time?'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined using her [Lock-On Telepathy].
The fake Crown Prince Feng was stunned for a moment and replied: ''Oh, really?! So, you are going to stand up for your boyfriend in this kind of situation?!''
''... He is not my boyfriend. I will throw you to those Nascent Soul Stage elders if you dare to say it like that again!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy threatened the fake Crown Prince Feng in annoyance.
"So, what do you want us to do right now?" Elder Yang asked the fake Crown Prince Feng with a cold chilling tone.
"Dispel this light barrier first. We will discuss it further after you managed to carry it out." The fake Crown Prince Feng immediately replied while tightened his grip on Tang Li Xue''s neck.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy started to feel suffocating when the fake Crown Prince Feng choked her neck.
''This bast*rd! If she is not the important Zuo... whatever it is, I will make sure to choke him to deathter after all of this over!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy cursed the fake Crown Prince Feng in her heart.
"Just like I have exined to you before, this Revealing Light Swords Formation is incredibly hard to dispel. It will take quite a lot of time to do it since I and those three elders need to move around to look for the hidden key runes and disperse it one by one¡" Elder Yang said again like his previous words.
But the fake Crown Prince Feng did not have any patience to listen to Elder Yang''s exnation for the second time and immediately cut him halfway.
"Shut up! I do not want to hear your exnation anymore! All of your words are only bullshit to make me lower my guard!" The fake Crown Prince Feng shouted in anger again.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy almost fainted by this fake Crown Prince Feng''s idiocy.
''Didn''t I just say that you need to stall for ten minutes? Why the hell do you shut him up like that instead?! Aihh¡'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy grumbled at the fake Crown Prince Feng.
The fake Crown Prince Feng immediately realized his mistake when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said it to him.
He quickly took a deep breath to calm down the raging emotion in his heart.
Then the fake Crown Prince Feng began to discuss it earnestly with Elder Yang instead.
Although the fake Crown Prince Feng looked earnest, but he was actually talking in circles with Elder Yang to stall for more time.
Someone as smart and cunning as Elder Yang definitely noticed it after five to seven minutes of meaningless discussion with the fake Crown Prince Feng.
''Strange, he looks very angry before, so I think he is going to lose control very soon. I never thought that he can regain hisposure so soon. Also, what is his true purpose of talking in circles like this? Is he trying to wait until the four elderspletely exhausted and the light barrier wears out by itself? It is possible¡ Or maybe... is he waiting for his reinforcement toe? It is possible too...'' Elder Yang pondered it carefully for a few moments.
''Anyway, I cannot let him buy more time or the situation will deteriorate and be a disadvantage for me!'' Elder Yang decided in his heart.
Elder Yang nodded his head while kept discussing the terms with the fake Crown Prince Feng, but he was actually giving a signal to the still hidden fourth Nascent Soul Stage elder.
Elder Yang gave permission to the hidden fourth Nascent Soul Stage elder to y the fake Crown Prince Feng instantly in one move without injuring Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
It was clear that Elder Yang hadpletely given up on interrogating the fake Crown Prince Feng and decided to just execute him on the spot.
Chapter 381: Escaping Out from the Formation!
Chapter 381: Escaping Out from the Formation!
The fourth Nascent Soul Stage elder was actually the master of assassination, so he could even remain undetected from Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] until now and secretly guard Elder Yang''s safety from behind.
The current hiding Nascent Soul Stage elder responded almost immediately after Elder Yang had given him a signal to execute the fake Crown Prince Feng on the spot.
The fourth Nascent Soul Stage elder shed stealthily toward the fake Crown Prince Feng from behind.
The fake Crown Prince Feng was currently still discussing the terms to release Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with Elder Yang to stall for more time, and he did not sense the fourth Nascent Soul Stage elder''s movement at all.
The fourth Nascent Soul Stage elder''s every movement was not only very swift but alsopletely undetectable without creating any sound or even gust of wind.
When the fourth Nascent Soul Stage elder arrived right behind the fake Crown Prince Feng, not even Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had realized it.
SWISH~!!!
The fourth Nascent Soul Stage elder swiftly swung his palm toward the fake Crown Prince Feng''s head from behind.
If this palm strike managed to hit fake Crown Prince Feng''s head, his brain would turn into mush, and he would die in an instant.
But just right before the palm strike struck the fake Crown Prince Feng''s head from behind, suddenly¡
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
There was a deafening sound of an explosioning from the right side of the light barrier.
To make it much worse, Instructor Mei Lan even used her [Heavenly Sound] divine ability to amplify the deafening volume of the explosion by many times.
An earth-shattering sound of the explosion was more than enough to shock the four Nascent Soul Stage elders and stun them for a few moments.
Elder Yang had already guessed before that the fake Crown Prince Feng was currently stalling for more time until his reinforcement came, but he never thought that his reinforcements could break their Revealing Light Swords Formation this easily in such a short time.
However, He was already more prepared than the others, so the earth-shattering sound of the explosion did not affect him as much as the others.
He immediately retreated a few meters backward to keep his distance from the big explosion and the fake Crown Prince Feng.
The four Nascent Soul Stage elders woke up from their daze after a few moments and decided to retreat too.
All of them stood around Elder Yang in an instant to protect him from the iing threat.
Meanwhile, the fake Crown Prince Feng and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was already dashing with their full speed toward where that explosion sound came from.
''Sprint faster toward that spot where that explosion came from whilst our enemies are still confused and wary!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shouted to the fake Crown Prince Feng with her [Lock-On Telepathy] skill.
''I always want to ask you about this¡ You are from Fox Race too, right? Why do we need to run away from them if the reinforcements from Fox Race havee? Why don''t we just ughter them all to show them the true might of Fox Race?!'' The fake Crown Prince Feng asked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with his [Telepathy] skill while kept running madly toward the direction of the explosion.
''So, she already knew that I am from the Fox Race? And¡ she said ''too'' so she is also a fox, just like us? So, it is true that she is that Zuo? But... why do I feel something is very strange here?'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy pondered carefully while using her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dash toward Instructor Mei Lan.
''Ah, right! Her current image is very different from what Instructor Lan had told us before. She seems so immature and did not look like a veteran inspector at all like Instructor Lan. And¡ she also seems very unfamiliar with Fox Race and Myriad Foxes Academy at all.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy deduced while deeply frowned as she nced suspiciously at the fake Crown Prince Feng.
''Is he really that Zuo or not? Sigh... I am really confused right now. Whatever... It is not the right time to doubt him for now. I will just let Instructor Mei Lan judge himter after we get out from here.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had decided it in her heart.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied to the fake Crown Prince Feng and exined patiently with her [Lock-On Telepathy] skill: ''Just so you know, my reinforcements are only four foxes, but only one of them can fight on par with one Nascent Soul Stage cultivator. If those four Nascent Soul Stage elders are ganging on us together, we would surely be defeated by them! You better sprint faster, so we can escape from here as soon as possible.''
The fake Crown Prince Feng looked at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in shock and identally shouted out loud: "What?!"
Elder Yang immediately felt that something was not right when he realized that the fake Crown Prince Feng and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy were sprinting together toward the direction of the explosion, so he quickly instructed the elders by his side: "We will chase and catch them now before they can escape out from here. You can kill the serial killer, but do not hurt Young Miss Chou. She is innocent and still under the effect of the illusion after all."
"Elder Wu and Elder Fang can go first to catch up with them, but please be more careful. We still do not know how many people his reinforcements are and how strong they are. If you feel something is not right, then you can immediately retreat and report it to me first." Elder Yang also told the other two elders to go on first.
It did not take long for the fake Crown Prince Feng and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to reach the ce where the explosion happened before.
There was a hole in the cage of light''s wall there. It seems Instructor Mei Lan used some forceful method to make that hole.
The fake Crown Prince Feng and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy jumped out from the cage of light without any hesitation.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the real Tang Li Xue, who was still garbed in ck clothes, already waited for the two of them there.
"GO!" Instructor Mei Lan said to all of them.
All of Instructor Mei Lan''s students hastily pulled the fake Crown Prince Feng and sprinting away from the cage of light.
Meanwhile, the two Nascent Soul Stage elders also reached that hole at the cage of light''s wall.
But just as the two of them wanted to jump out from there too, Instructor Mei Lan immediately appeared behind that hole and struck her slender palm toward them.
[Demonic Tune] plus [Heavenly Sound]¡ [Fatal Vibration Strike]: 3rd echo!
BBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The sudden powerful strike from Instructor Mei Lanpletely caught the two Nascent Soul Stage elders off guard.
The two Nascent Soul Stage elders flew tens of meters backward and coughed several mouthfuls of blood.
Afternding a powerful lethal strike at the two Nascent Soul Stage elders, Instructor Mei Lan quickly took something out from her space pouch and threw it toward the hole at the cage of light''s wall.
The item that Instructor Mei Lan had thrown immediately dispersed in that instant, and then the hole at the cage of light''s wall in front of her was fixed in only a few seconds.
A few secondster, Elder Yang and the other two Nascent Soul Stage elders arrived there too, but it was already toote. The hole at the cage of light''s wall was already fixedpletely.
The two Nascent Soul Stage elders that got seriously wounded by Instructor Mei Lan quickly reported what happened to them to Elder Yang.
"So, there is only one powerful person at the Nascent Soul Stage level amongst them. The situation is not as bad as I thought. Let''s quickly cancel this Revealing Light Swords Formation and chase after them." Elder Yang calmly instructed.
"Elder Yang, where do you know that there is only a powerful person amongst them? What if there is more than one Nascent Soul Stage expert with them?" One of the wounded Nascent Soul Stage elders asked Elder Yang with a curious tone.
"Because they will certainly not decided to waste a treasure to cover this wall only to slow us down if they have more than one Nascent Soul Stage cultivator amongst them." Elder Yang replied with his deduction.
"If it was me, I would immediately kill you two after I managed to catch you off guard and seriously wound the two of you. It means only the three of us left, and they might decide to just fight against us since they have more numbers if you include that fake Crown Prince Feng and Young Miss Chou too." Elder Yang briefly exined to them.
After Elder Yang exined everything, the confinement formation had been lifted off by the four Nascent Soul Stage elders too, and they started to chase after Instructor Mei Lan and the others again.
It was clear that Elder Yang had lied when he told the fake Crown Prince Feng that it took a very long time to lift this formation before.
¡..
¡
.
Instructor Mei Lan quickly caught up with Tang Li Xue and the others.
All of them were heading out from the Imperial Pce as fast as they could.
But Instructor Mei Lan suddenly frowned deeply when she observed every movement of the fake Crown Prince Feng.
"You are injured very seriously. You will only slow us down at this rate, and they will certainly catch up to us very soon. It will be better if you return to your fox form and let us carry you." Instructor Mei Lan advised the fake Crown Prince Feng.
With her improved intelligence, Tang Li Xue immediately realized that Instructor Mei Lan actually probed at the fake Crown Prince Feng to look at his fox form and check if he was really Zuo Hongzhuang or not.
Chapter 382: Fierce Chasing!
Chapter 382: Fierce Chasing!
"No, I am fine. If I am really slow all of you down, then all of you can just leave me here. With my divine ability, I can easily disguise as anyone and blend into the crowds to escape." The fake Crown Prince Feng shook his head and refused to follow Instructor Mei Lan''s advice.
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately told her a piece of bad news: "You cannot do that anymore. I am pretty sure that Elder Yang must already put some tracker on you through that special wine of his. No matter where you run or hide, that Elder Yang and his people definitely can find you using that tracker."
The fake Crown Prince Feng frowned deeply and asked: "This... is really troublesome. Can you just help me remove that tracker from me? After that, I can take care of myself, and all of you do not even need to escort me out from here anymore."
Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to answer the fake Crown Prince Feng''s stupid question.
If they really knew how to remove the tracker, why did they need to dy it until now while Elder Yang and his people were still chasing after them from behind because of it?
But Instructor Mei Lan''s suspicion of the fake Crown Prince Feng''s identity had grown stronger now.
After she heard his behavior from Tang Li Xue before, Instructor Mei Lan had already doubted about 50 percent that the fake Crown Prince Feng was not Zuo Hongzhuang, but now, her suspicion had grown to 70 to 80 percent.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned and began to ponder everything deeper.
From what Tang Li Xue had told her before, Instructor Mei Lan already knew about the secret conversation between Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and this fake Crown Prince Feng about him admitting as one of the Fox Race, but Instructor Mei Lan was 80 percent sure that he was not the fox they were looking for.
Instructor Mei Lan wanted to probe this fake Crown Prince Feng''s true identity further, but unfortunately, Elder Yang and the four Nascent Soul Stage elders would never let them have any time to think about anything in peace as they already arrived tens of meters behind them.
Elder Yang and the four Nascent Soul Stage elders were riding on the top of their flying sword, so
their speed was very fast.
Instructor Mei Lan gritted her teeth and instructed all of her students: "Take out your Wind Riding Bird from your space pouch and ride on it. We will leave here as soon as possible!"
Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and Tang Li Xue quickly took out their Wind Riding Bird from their space pouch, then jumped onto it.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sat behind the real Tang Li Xue, while the fake Crown Prince Feng sat behind Hei Yinghao.
All of Wind Riding Birds pped their wings and soared onto the sky with lightning speed.
"To think they already right behind us after Instructor Lan restored the formation to buy some time... They are really fast!" Bing Yi mumbled in annoyance.
Instructor Mei Lan already told all of them about her n before they opened a hole in the cage of light, but they thought Elder Yang and his people would still need a few minutes to broke free from that cage of light.
Instructor Mei Lan, the fake Crown Prince Feng, Tang Li Xue, and the others hastily urged their Wind Riding Bird to increase their flying speed to maximum just so Elder Yang and his people would not catch up to them too soon.
Instructor Mei Lan secretly nodded toward the real Tang Li Xue, and she took out a [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from her space pouch, then threw it toward the fake Crown Prince Feng.
The [Talisman of Regeneration +3] turned into a sh of green light and entered the fake Crown Prince Feng''s body.
At first, the fake Crown Prince Feng felt rmed by Tang Li Xue''s sudden action, but he immediately felt that his serious injuries started recovering much faster right now under the effect of [Talisman of Regeneration +3].
"Thank you." The fake Crown Prince Feng said while nodded at Tang Li Xue.
As for the reason why Tang Li Xue did not use her [Talisman of Regeneration] earlier to recover the fake Crown Prince Feng, it was because Instructor Mei Lan wanted to use the fake Crown Prince Feng''s serious injuries to checking his identity first, but it seems the arrival of Elder Yang and the four Nascent Soul Stage elders made Instructor Mei Lan changed her mind.
"This is bad! They are still faster than us! They will certainly catch up with us at this rate!" Hei Yinghao frowned as he looked behind and checked the distance between Elder Yang and him, then muttered his warning to the others.
"Watch out!" Tang Li Xue suddenly shouted to warn the others again.
With her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability, Tang Li Xue could easily sense her surrounding very clearly and even predict them a few seconds ahead of time with her several upgraded skills.
Elder Yang and the four Nascent Soul Stage elders were stood on the top of their own flying sword and swiftly chasing after Tang Li Xue''s group closely from behind.
Once they were closer to Tang Li Xue''s group, the four Nascent Soul Stage elders started to throw several ranged strikes to slow down Tang Li Xue''s group.
[Lightning Hammer sh]!
[Winter Wind st]!
[Storm Soaring Strike]!
[Death me Barrage]!
The powerful lethal strikes of lightning, ice, wind, and fire were flying toward Tang Li Xue''s group from behind with unbelievable speed.
"Spread out!" Instructor Mei Lan shouted her instruction.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and Tang Li Xue immediately pulled the rein of their Wind Riding Bird, then made them swiftly flew toward four different directions: up, down, right, and left.
The four extremely powerful attacks from four Nascent Soul Stage elders barely passed behind them and struck the residential area below them.
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
It did not only created a veryrge explosion and deep crater, but the me started to quickly spread everywhere in the residential area near the Imperial Pce.
Many of the citizens living there were seriously wounded because of it, and they started to scream and shout for help.
The situation became extremely chaotic.
However, that huge explosion was only the beginning of the fierce tag game that would happen in the sky above Imperial City of Feng Empire tonight.
There were four Wind Riding Birds, and there were four Nascent Soul Stage elders too.
But the four Nascent Soul Stage elders were focused more on chasing after the Wind Riding Birds with fake Crown Prince Feng and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy on it.
Tang Li Xue''s Wind Riding Bird skillfully flew swiftly right and left while altering its height from the ground.
Sometimes it would dive down below until it almost touched the ground.
Sometimes it would soar toward the sky and st through the cloud.
But the two Nascent Soul Stage elders and Elder Yang kept sticking to her closely from behind.
"Damn it! They are so persistent!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and grumbled in anger.
"Oi! Stopzing around and help me to fend them off from our tail!" Tang Li Xueined to her perfect copy.
Yaya still sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head under her ck hood, but she was more than eager to help Tang Li Xue out right now.
While Little Loki was stillzily lied down on her right shoulder below her cloak, it seems Little Loki did not even bother to think about helping Tang Li Xue at all.
But Tang Li Xue also did not want Yaya and Little Loki to help her out right now, since it would be the same as exposing her identity to Elder Yang.
Elder Yang already saw Yaya and Little Loki before when he wanted to take the ring ne from Tang Li Xue, so he would certainly recognize them in one nce if he managed to see them.
It waspletely different for her own perfect copy since the current setting should be that her perfect copy was still trapped in the fake Crown Prince Feng''s illusion, so she could attack whoever she wants without any repercussion.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes and replied: "We do not have any powerful ranged attack other than using [Energy Maniption] and me of Pride. But using both of them would expose our identity. Are you really sure that you want me to use it?"
"So what?! You can just copy any of their martial arts with [Mirror of the Moon] and throw it back onto their face!" Tang Li Xue replied with a disdain tone.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could not assimte with her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], and Tang Li Xue also did not want to summon it out since it was too eye-catching and easy to recognize.
Moreover, if her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], got destroyed by those Nascent Soul Stage elders, Tang Li Xue''s soul would also sustain very serious injuries.
Different from physical injuries, it would need a long time to recover from soul injuries, and her [High-Speed Regeneration] would not be able to help her to recover from that kind of wound.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not hesitate to do what the real Tang Li Xue told her.
---------------------------------------------------
[Mirror of the Moon], Active!
Copy Start!
Name: [Lightning Hammer sh]
Type: Martial Art
Copy Completed!
---------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy turned around and waved her hand toward the two Nascent Soul Stage Elders that were still chasing behind her.
A purple lightning hammer flew toward the two Nascent Soul Stage Elders, but the size of the hammer was several times smaller than the one used by the Nascent Soul Stage Elder.
The two Nascent Soul Stage Elders did not even bother to avoid it and struck back instead with their own martial art.
[Lightning Hammer sh]!
[Storm Soaring Strike]!
BOOOOMM~!!!
The [Lightning Hammer sh] from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was destroyed in an instant as the two powerful strikes flew toward Tang Li Xue''s Wind Riding Bird again.
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy already guessed that their attack could not even scratch the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator like these elders because the difference between their levels of strength was still too far, so they have already long prepared for it.
In fact, they would already long get caught if not for the swift flying speed and skillful flying technique of their Wind Riding Birds.
Tang Li Xue''s Wind Riding Bird hastily pped its wing and flew upward all of a sudden. It sessfully avoided the powerful strikes of the Nascent Soul Stage Elders for several times.
But all of these were far from over, since every time the Wind Riding Bird changed its direction to swiftly avoid the attacking toward it, the Nascent Soul Stage Elders behind them also managed to get a half step closer toward them.
At this rate, it would not take long for the Nascent Soul Stage Elders behind them to catch up and capture them.
Chapter 383: Miraculous Black Marbles!
Chapter 383: Miraculous ck Marbles!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy became more anxious when she saw the two Nascent Soul Stage Elders got closer and closer from behind her, then said with a worried tone: "Oh My God! They almost caught up with us! Can your white chicken fly faster than this?!"
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and angrily replied: "Shut up! They are Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, yet you want to outrun them that easily?! Please stop dreaming! We might even already get caught by those Nascent Soul Stage elders if I did not keep giving it the Spirit Dew Cucumber right now to encourage it to fly with its highest speed!"
But their anxiousness was notpletely unfounded since the two Nascent Soul Stage Elders were only a half-meter away from them.
If Elder Yang ordered Nascent Soul Stage Elders to kill them instead of rescuing Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, they had probably already been killed right now.
This was also the reason why Instructor Mei Lan decided to assist HeiYinghao and the fake Crown Prince Feng instead of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy.
Because Elder Yang and the other two Nascent Soul Stage Elders were really nning to hunt and kill the fake Crown Prince Feng.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan also already set a backup n for Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy at a critical moment like this...
Just when the two Nascent Soul Stage elders almost caught Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy, Bing Yi was suddenly diving down from the cloud toward them!
The two Nascent Soul Stage elders have sharp spirit sense, and they already predicted that something wasing toward them really fast.
"Bingbing! Watch out!" Tang Li Xue quickly shouted to warn Bing Yi above her.
But when the two Nascent Soul Stage elders prepared to strike down Bing Yi, Bing Yi quickly threw something toward them while said with a cold tone: "Eat this!"
Bing Yi was actually thrown out two small ck marbles.
The two Nascent Soul Stage elders could not guess the true function of these small ck marbles, so their reaction was a half-step toote to avoid it.
"What... is that things? Bombs? Grenades?" Tang Li Xue mumbled in a daze as she turned her head behind and watched the two tiny ck marbles carefully.
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGG~!!!
The two small ck marbles exploded right before they almost touched the two Nascent Soul Stage elders.
However, the effect was not like what Tang Li Xue had expected.
After the two small ck marbles exploded, it was actually not spewing fire everywhere like the bomb, but it turned into two ck spheres that confined the two Nascent Soul Stage elders inside it.
"Quick, let''s run away now! Instructor Lan said that things can only restrain them for three to five seconds at most!" Bing Yi said to Tang Li Xue while she hastily rode her Wind Riding Bird away from there.
After hearing Bing Yi''s words, Tang Li Xue also quickly patted her Wind Riding Bird and told it to fly as far away as possible from the two Nascent Soul Stage elders that were still confined inside the two ck spheres.
1 second...
In the first second, two ck spheres already had a bit of crack because the two Nascent Soul Stage elders used their powerful martial arts to pound it from inside.
2 second...
In only two seconds, two ck spheres almost could not hold on anymore, and it was already filled with cracks everywhere.
3 second...
At the third second, the rune inscribed on the surface of ck spheres became a lot dimmer.
4 second...
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The two ck spheres had finally shattered to pieces, and the two Nascent Soul Stage elders swiftly controlled their flying swords to chase after Tang Li Xue again.
They could not sense or track Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy anymore, so they decided to drive the flying sword under their feet toward the direction where Tang Li Xue flew before.
The two Nascent Soul Stage elders flew really fast until they exited Tang Feng City, but they still had not managed to spot Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy at all.
The two Nascent Soul Stage elders started to get anxious and look around the Tang Feng City''s periphery while asked anyone they met there to find where Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy flying to.
Unfortunately, they could not find any information about it at all since¡ Tang Li Xue was actually still inside Tang Feng City!
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi rode their Wind Riding Bird and jumped out from behind the two-floor brothel building.
"Damn! That was quick! That ck barrier can onlyst for 4 seconds?! Thankfully, we are smart enough to hide behind this building instead of flying out Tang Feng City." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in surprise while looking toward where the two Nascent Soul Stage elders were flying.
"Instructor Mei Lan says that Array Sphere couldst more than six hours if used against Core Formation Stage cultivators. But Nascent Soul Stage cultivators are just too powerful, so it can onlyst for 4 seconds." Bing Yi exined to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Real Tang Li Xue nodded in gratitude while smiling at Bing Yi and said: "Thank you for your help, Bingbing. Those Array Spheres might onlyst for four seconds, but that thing seems to also seal all the senses of those Nascent Soul elders and made them unaware of what happens outside of the ck sphere. That was the only reason why we can hide from them this easily."
"Little Xue¡ you do not need to say thank you to me because saving you is my own will." Bing Yi acted as if she was really moved and jumped to hug Tang Li Xue while smiled happily.
Yaya, who sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head and hidden under Tang Li Xue''s ck hood, puffed her cheek cutely in displeasure and jealousy.
While Little Loki felt a bit upset since Bing Yi''s hug interrupted its sleep.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes at them and warned: "Just so you two know, this is still far from over. Those two Nascent Soul elders might be cannot us right now, but what if they decided to go back and help that Elder Yang chasing after Silly Fox and the fake Crown Prince? I am afraid that even Instructor Lan might not be able to prevent them from getting caught if that really happens."
The expression of Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi immediately turned grim once more after they heard that.
"Bingbing, do you have more of those Array Spheres?" Tang Li Xue looked at Bing Yi and asked her.
Bing Yi nced back at Tang Li Xue while shook her head and replied: "No, Instructor Lan only gave me two Array Spheres."
"Let''s go to help Silly Fox and Instructor Lan right now while those two Nascent Soul elders are still feeling confused and searching blindly for us." Tang Li Xue said to Bing Yi as she rode her Wind Riding Bird to fly toward Elder Yang''s direction.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy already left a track from [Mapping Sense] skill on Elder Yang''s body before, so she could find his whereabouts easily anytime with her [Mapping Sense] skill.
Bing Yi quickly made her Wind Riding Bird follow Tang Li Xue from behind.
Both of their Wind Riding Bird pped their wings and flew swiftly toward the other side of Tang Feng City.
Tang Li Xue began to think deeply on the top of her Wind Riding Bird and tried to formte possible ns to get out of this dangerous situation.
"Instructor Lan should not have any more Array Sphere with her, or she might only have one with her right now¡ because if she has more than one,bined with the two Array Spheres that Bingbing had with her before, she would have more than four Array Spheres at total. She would definitely already use it to restrain the four Nascent Soul Stage elders and take Elder Yang as her hostage if she really had that much Array Spheres." Tang Li Xue murmured her deduction.
After thinking for a while, Tang Li Xue seems still could not think of any n, so she turned around and nced at her perfect copy.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already knew what her real self was thinking before she said anything, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately eximed in surprise and displeasure: "What?! You want to use me as a hostage again to threaten Elder Yang again! Come on, that is already old! That fake Crown Prince already used it so many times inside that light barrier before!"
"Do we have any other choice right now?! At least that Elder Yang still seems really care about you now. I bet he is already seduced by your peerless beauty and impatient to bring you back to his home. I am sure we can definitely use it to our advantage." Tang Li Xue replied while snickered mischievously at her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not bother to say anything and only rolled her eyes in resignation.
Bing Yi only stared weirdly at Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy while silently eavesdropping on their conversation from behind.
She started to think that Tang Li Xue was already lost her mind in anxiousness and started to talk to herself.
¡..
¡
.
Meanwhile, the chasing between Elder Yang and the other two Nascent Soul Stage elders with Hei Yinghao and the fake Crown Prince Feng was much more excited and dangerous.
Different from the Nascent Soul Stage elders that chasing after Tang Li Xue to rescue Miss Chou Nu or her perfect copy, Elder Yang and the other two Nascent Soul Stage elders were chasing after the fake Crown Prince Feng to y him, so they did not hold back their attack at all.
Chapter 384: Fatal Sneak Attack!
Chapter 384: Fatal Sneak Attack!
[Whirlwind Freezing st]!
[Death me Twister]!
The destructive attack from the two Nascent Soul Stage eldersbined into one the moment it released.
The [Whirlwind Freezing st] was like a typhoon made from icy wind that propelled the lethal dark crimson me ahead.
While [Death me Twister] slowly merged with the icy typhoon, increasing the lethality and destructive power by several levels.
The fake Crown Prince Feng, who turned his head to look behind, was gasped in shock when he saw thebined attack from the two Nascent Soul Stage elders zoomed so fast right onto his face.
The fake Crown Prince Feng wanted to shout to warn Hei Yinghao, but it was already toote since thebined powerful attack was too fast, and it had already arrived a few inches behind him!
Just when the deadlybined attack almost hit the fake Crown Prince Feng and Hei Yinghao from behind, their Wind Riding Bird suddenly spun while it kept flying forward without slowing down at all.
BBWWOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
The deadlybined attack from the two Nascent Soul Stage elders barely missed them by a few centimeters.
"WWAAAAAHHHH~!!! I will fall! I will really fall!" The fake Crown Prince Feng screamed in fright.
It was not strange for him to scream since the current position of the fake Crown Prince Feng and Hei Yinghao was upside down because Wind Riding Bird they rode suddenly spun on mid-air with great speed.
Hei Yinghao was still all right since he held the rein tightly with both of his hands and hugged the saddle on the Wind Riding Bird''s body tightly with both of his feet.
But the fake Crown Prince Feng did not hold onto anything at all, so when the Wind Riding Bird suddenly spun on mid-air, he identally fell from the back of Wind Riding Bird!
"AAAAHHH~!!! I am really falling!" The fake Crown Prince Feng shouted out loud. He really wanted to cry so badly right now.
The fake Crown Prince Feng suddenly felt that something tugging his right foot.
The fake Crown Prince Feng sighed in relief since he thought Hei Yinghao was the one who helped him.
Unfortunately, he immediately found out that he waspletely wrong when he looked at the thin crimson thread bounded on his right foot.
The fake Crown Prince Feng was very familiar with this thin crimson thread since it was the same thread that almost took his head off before!
It was the blood thread created by Elder Yang''s [Blood of Lust]!
Elder Yang used his blood thread to bind the fake Crown Prince Feng''s right leg and forcefully pulled the fake Crown Prince Feng toward him!
"AAAAHHH~!!! Help me!" The fake Crown Prince Feng screamed while tried to release his right leg from Elder Yang''s blood thread by kicking it away with his left leg, but his effort was futile since the blood thread was binding his right leg too tightly.
Just when the fake Crown Prince Feng was swiftly flying toward Elder Yang because Elder Yang pulled the blood thread with all of his strength, Wind Riding Bird already turned around with lightning speed, and Hei Yinghao suddenly grabbed the fake Crown Prince Feng''s left wrist.
Although the fake Crown Prince Feng stopped flying toward Elder Yang right now because Hei Yinghao was pulling his left hand from the opposite direction, but he was in incredible pain right now.
The fake Crown Prince Feng felt as if his body would split in two soon when Elder Yang and Hei Yinghao were in a tug of war using his limbs with all of their strength.
CRACK¡ CRACK¡ CRACK¡ CRACK¡ CRACK¡
The bones at his left hand and his right leg even started to let out several loud cracking noises. It seems some of his bone joints were already dislocated because of their pull.
Meanwhile, the two Nascent Soul Stage elders rode their flying swords to swiftly approach Hei Yinghao from his right side and left side.
The palms of the two Nascent Soul Stage elders already shone brightly when they focused their Qi on the top of their palms to deliver the finishing blow to Hei Yinghao and his Wind Riding Bird.
But a shadow suddenly shed toward one of the Nascent Soul Stage elders on the right side from above and¡
[Demonic Tune] plus [Heavenly Sound]¡ [Fatal Vibration Strike]: 3rd echo!
Instructor Mei Lan suddenly appeared and aimed to strike one of the Nascent Soul Stage elders right on his head to kill him in one stroke.
But the two Nascent Soul Stage elders were clearly already very wary of any sudden sneak attack, so when Instructor Mei Lan aimed her powerful strike at his head, that Nascent Soul Stage elder already twisted his body to dodge her lethal strike.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Instructor Mei Lan''s sneaky lethal strike failed to hit that Nascent Soul Stage elder''s head, but it still managed to strike the Nascent Soul Stage elder''s right shoulder in the end!
CCRRRAAAAAAAACCCCKKK~!!!
PPUUUUFFFF~!!!
The shoulder bones of that Nascent Soul Stage elder werepletely crushed to pieces while the fleshes at his right shoulder were burst under the intense destructive vibration force of Instructor Mei Lan''s strike from thebination of her two divine abilities.
The Nascent Soul Stage elder spurted several mouthfuls of blood, while the blood at his shoulder sttered everywhere like the rain of blood.
That Nascent Soul Stage elder could no longer control his flying sword to support his body, so his body and flying sword plunged from the sky.
Instructor Mei Lan divided her [Fatal Vibration Strike] into different levels based on the elementalpression level.
Since her divine abilities were sound-based, so she decided to call it ''Echo''.
[Fatal Vibration Strike]: 3rd echo was very powerful, but she needs at least a few seconds topress the vibration and sound to reach the level of the 3rd echo.
In those few seconds, she would leave an opening, and it would be fatal if anyone was attacking her when she was in the process ofpressing it.
That was the reason why she could only use this [Fatal Vibration Strike]: 3rd echo for sneak attack and could not use it when she was fighting head-on with anyone.
"Elder Wu!" The other Nascent Soul Stage elder shouted out loud with a worried tone as he controlled his flying sword to save the fall Nascent Soul Stage elder before he fell onto the ground.
Instructor Mei Lan did not have time to pay any attention to these two Nascent Soul Stage elders as she hastily nced at the fake Crown Prince Feng''s right leg that was bound by Elder Yang''s blood thread.
Instructor Mei Lan quickly created an invisible sword with her [Vibration Construct]. The invisible vibration sword shed toward the fake Crown Prince Feng''s right leg and easily cut the blood thread.
"Go! I will stall them for a while!" Instructor Mei Lan instructed Hei Yinghao with a stern tone.
Hei Yinghao nodded at Instructor Mei Lan and pulled the fake Crown Prince Feng to make him sit on the Wind Riding Bird again before ordered the Wind Riding Bird to fly out from Tang Feng City as fast as possible.
Of course, Elder Yang would never let the fake Crown Prince Feng and Hei Yinghao escape that easily from him. He immediately controlled the flying sword under his feet to chase after them.
Instructor Mei Lan instructed her Wind Riding Bird to obstruct Elder Yang, but before she could do that, someone already moved faster and obstructed in front of her first!
"I am going to chase after that serial killer. So I will leave her to you two." Elder Yang murmured as he passed behind the two Nascent Soul Stage elders.
The two Nascent Soul Stage elders did not say anything, but they only nodded at Elder Yang.
Instructor Mei Lan sighed in annoyance while murmured: "I knew it... This would never be that easy."
The Nascent Soul Stage cultivator was on apletely different levelpared to the cultivator at the lower stage.
They would not die even if their body got destroyed.
Even if their body got destroyed, they could still use their Nascent Soul to escape and take over the other person''s body.
Of course, their cultivation would drastically decrease after they took over the other person''s body, but it was only temporary. It would only take several years for them to reach their true cultivation level and get back their true strength.
In short, to kill the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, anyone needs to destroy their Nascent Soul. Nascent Soul was very fragile when the body was destroyed, but it could escape everywhere from entering the ground, flying onto the sky, and so on.
Moreover, Instructor Mei Lan did not destroy the Nascent Soul Stage elder''s body at all. She only crushed his shoulder and made him lost control of his flying sword.
That Nascent Soul Stage elder was weakened a bit, but that was all. Even his bleeding was alreadypletely stopped, and the serious wound at his shoulder already started to recover right now because he already ate some recovery pills just now.
This time, it was Instructor Mei Lan''s turn to run as the two Nascent Soul Stage elders were chasing after her crazily to take their revenge.
¡..
¡
.
The Wind Riding Bird that brought Hei Yinghao and the fake Crown Prince Feng were almost flying out from Tang Feng City, but unfortunately for them, Elder Yang was still following them from behind.
Elder Yang got closer and closer toward the Wind Riding Bird as the time passed, then Elder Yang abruptly summoned out his martial soul.
"Drink their blood until dry¡ [Nine Petal Blood Lotus]!" Elder Yang murmured as arge crimson lotus bloomed above him.
Chapter 385: Perilous Aerial Pursuit!
Chapter 385: Perilous Aerial Pursuit!
Therge [Nine Petal Blood Lotus] above Elder Yang shone brightly with the eerie crimson light that illuminated the night sky.
Then the shining [Nine Petal Blood Lotus] turned into a crimson blood sword and flew to Elder Yang''s hand.
The crimson blood sword in Elder Yang''s grasp started to turn even redder when it began to absorb Elder Yang''s blood.
That was Elder Yang''s idea to utilize his martial soul, [Nine Petal Blood Lotus], and [Blood of Lust] contained in his blood to increase his battle prowess further.
By letting his blood be absorbed by the crimson blood sword, the power of his crimson blood sword would increase by several times, and he could even control his blood to change the form of his crimson blood sword''s edge.
For example like now¡
There were still a few meters of distance between Elder yang with fake Crown Prince Feng and Hei Yinghao, but Elder Yang still shed the crimson blood sword in his grasp toward them.
In that instant, the edge of Elder Yang''s crimson blood sword turned flexible like a whip, and itshed toward the fake Crown Prince Feng and Hei Yinghao.
The fake Crown Prince Feng, who kept looking behind to observe their distance with Elder Yang, immediately widened his eyes in surprise and shouted to warn Hei Yinghao: "Watch o¡"
Hei Yinghao has an even higher Spirit stat than Tang Li Xue, so his [Spirit Perception] was very sharp.
Without even looking at Elder Yang or hearing the warning from fake Crown Prince Feng, he could already sense Elder Yang''s crimson blood sword wasshing toward him like a sharp whip.
If the sharp whip from the edge of Elder Yang''s crimson blood sword hit them, there was no doubt that they would be cut in two!
Hei Yinghao gritted his teeth as he swiftly released his Wind Riding Bird''s rein and took out the traditional umbre he got from Instructor Mei Lan in Myriad Foxes Academy before, then opened it to deflect Elder Yang''s crimson blood sword.
BBAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
Elder Yang''s flexible crimson blood sword struck Hei Yinghao''s traditional umbre very hard like a meteor.
That heavy hit did not affect Hei Yinghao much, but the Wind Riding Bird he rode was thrown off its course because of it and started to spin uncontrobly mid-air.
"AAAAAHHHH~!!!" The fake Crown Prince Feng screamed in fear, and he quickly hugged Hei Yinghao very tightly from behind because he did not want to fall from Wind Riding Bird and got caught by Elder Yang''s blood thread again, just like what happened before.
But Hei Yinghao did not even hold his Wind Riding Bird''s rein right now, so the centrifugal force from the spin and fierce wind almost thrown him off from his Wind Riding Bird.
Hei Yinghao''s legs clenched at the Wind Riding Bird''s body tighter to stabilized himself and prevented himself from being thrown off, but the fake Crown Prince Feng suddenly hugged him very tightly from behind!
Hei Yinghao''s leg could no longer support himself and the fake Crown Prince Feng anymore, so both of them were thrown off from the Wind Riding Bird''s back!
Elder Yang would never let this chance go, so he swiftly shed his crimson blood sword again toward Hei Yinghao and the fake Crown Prince Feng!
The edge of his crimson blood sword turned flexible again as it livelyshed toward Hei Yinghao and the fake Crown Prince Feng like a hungry snake.
At this crucial moment, Hei Yinghao gritted his teeth and activated his divine abilities!
[Blood Burst] active!
[Blood Ignition] ¨C Twelve Amplification active!
Hei Yinghao activated both of his [Blood Burst] and [Blood Ignition] at his utmost limit in this instant!
He raised the traditional umbre in his right hand''s grasp to block Elder Yang''s attack while he reached out his left hand to seize the rein of his Wind Riding Bird at lightning speed.
BBAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
Elder Yang''s crimson blood sword struck Hei Yinghao''s traditional umbre very heavily again.
Elder Yang''s strike was stronger and heavier thanst time too!
It had thrown Hei Yinghao and the fake Crown Prince Feng off farther from the Wind Riding Bird, just right before Hei Yinghao could grab the rein of his Wind Riding Bird!
"AAAHHHH~!!! We are falling! We are falling~!!!" The fake Crown Prince Feng screamed out loud in fright, but he kept hugging Hei Yinghao tightly from behind.
"Shut up! Release me right now and hold onto my hand tightly!" Hei Yinghao shouted to the fake Crown Prince Feng with an angry tone.
Thankfully the fake Crown Prince Feng still listened to Hei Yinghao''s instruction in this critical moment and released his hug to Hei Yinghao, then hold Hei Yinghao''s hand tightly.
But right at that timing, Elder Yang''s third strike had alreadye andshing toward the fake Crown Prince Feng and Hei Yinghao again!
Hei Yinghao did not panic as he started to inject his Vitality Energy into his ck cloak.
BWOOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
The array hidden inside the ck cloak was activated, and a pair of huge ck bat-like wings was spreading open!
Hei Yinghao flew back in a sh toward his Wind Riding Bird while swiftly avoid Elder Yang''s third lethal strike at the same time!
Hei Yinghao returned onto his Wind Riding Bird''s back along with the fake Crown Prince Feng since the fake Crown Prince Feng kept holding his right hand tightly, so he flew back to Wind Riding Bird with Hei Yinghao.
Hei Yinghao checked his traditional umbre for a moment and realized that there were two long gashes on his traditional umbre''s surface.
It seems his traditional umbre could only block a few more strikes from Elder Yang before it brokepletely.
Unfortunately, their previous movement was already being read by Elder Yang, and Elder Yang already made a move ahead of them.
"Checkmate." Elder Yang murmured as he rode his flying sword right below the Wind Riding Bird right now.
If he attacked the fake Crown Prince Feng and Hei Yinghao from here, they would never be able to dodge it anymore.
But Elder Yang knew that Hei Yinghao might be able to block his attack againter, while the Wind Riding Bird would definitely not be able to block his attack from here!
So Elder Yang''s next target was not Hei Yinghao nor the fake Crown Prince Feng but the Wind Riding Bird!
Just when Elder Yang raised his crimson blood sword tosh his fourth strike toward Hei Yinghao''s Wind Riding Bird from below¡
The [Blood of Lust] hidden in his blood suddenly gave him a feeling of intense hunger as if it really wanted to devour something near so badly.
"STOP THERE RIGHT NOW IF YOU DO NOT WANT HER TO DIE~!!!" A sweet feminine voice shouted toward Elder Yang from behind.
Elder Yang turned around to see the source of that lovely sweet voice.
Elder Yang turned around to look at the source of that sweet luscious voice and realized that a ck-clothed woman was currently holding at Miss Chou Nu''s neck from behind.
Yes, it was Tang Li Xue who sat on her Wind Riding Bird while holding at her perfect copy''s neck from behind¡ since she nned to use her perfect copy as a hostage to threaten Elder Yang.
Elder Yang frowned deeply, but he still decided to lower the crimson blood sword in his grasp.
Hei Yinghao''s eyes brightened a lot when he saw Tang Li Xue, and he happily shouted while waved his hands at Tang Li Xue: "Little¡ Uhh¡ I feel really d that you are already safe right now."
Tang Li Xue stared at Hei Yinghao and said: "Go now! I will hold him off for you!"
"What?! But¡" Hei Yinghao was quite surprised by Tang Li Xue''s words, and he started to hesitate.
How could he just run away and leave his sweetheart behind like this?! He much preferred to let this fake Crown Prince Feng run away alone while he would fight against Elder Yang together with Tang Li Xue.
But the nearby Bing Yi quickly added with a smug tone: "Yes! Just go away, you annoying third-wheel! Leave this enemy for Little¡ woman and me to face!"
Hei Yinghao''s mouth twitched violently in displeasure when he heard Bing Yi''s words. Suddenly, he really did not want to go away from here anymore, no matter what will happen.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes in vexation and said: "Both of you, just go together and escort him away from here!"
"Ehhhh~! But I want to¡" Bing Yi frowned in and protested to Tang Li Xue, but before she could finish her words, Tang Li Xue already interrupted again.
"You two must remember our mission! Thepletion of the mission will always be our priority!" Tang Li Xue warned Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao with a very stern tone.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were shocked by Tang Li Xue''s seriousness.
Tang Li Xue added a few more words with her [Lock-On Telepathy] skill toward Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao: ''You do not need to worry about me. I have many escape skills. I can even use my stealth-type divine ability to escape alone, but I cannot bring all of you with me.''
Of course, Tang Li Xue could actually throw them into her space pouch, but Elder Yang should still be able to track her down.
The tracker that Elder Yang had put on the fake Crown Prince Feng was the most problematic and annoying right now.
It could be said the fake Crown Prince Feng was their biggest burden because Elder Yang could track his location no matter where he would run.
Both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao also understand that, so they nodded to Tang Li Xue and quickly instructed their Wind Riding Bird to fly away from there.
There was only Tang Li Xue and Elder Yang here right now, facing each other as enemies.
Illuminated by the moonlight under the night skies, the reunion between Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai was far from touching or heartwarming, especially since they were ready to kill each other at every moment if not for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy as a hostage.
Chapter 386: Elder Yang VS Tang Li Xue!
Chapter 386: Elder Yang VS Tang Li Xue!
"I already let all of them go. Should you honor your promise and let her go too?" Elder Yang said to Tang Li Xue with a chilling cold tone.
Tang Li Xue chuckled and replied smugly: "What do you mean by ''honor my promise''? I never promise you anything, aren''t I? I only said: ''stop there if you do not want her to die'', right?"
"What do you want me to do so you can let her go?" Elder Yang did not want to engage in a nonsense talk with Tang Li Xue and asked directly what she wants.
"Simple! I just want you to let me go, and you must not chase after me anymore. You do not need to worry! I will definitely release her after I run a bit far away from here." Tang Li Xue immediately answered.
"That could not be done. Who knows if you will decide to silence her forever after I let you get away from here. What if I promise to let you go AFTER you release her right now?" Elder Yang offered his terms to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xueughed mockingly at Elder Yang''s offer and said: "Do you really think I am a fool? You will definitely try to arrest me after I release her, right? Then you will use me as a hostage to bait the others back and catch all of them in one go, right?"
Although Tang Li Xue looked as if she was only having a casual chat with Elder Yang, but her [Extrasensory Perception] was always tracking Elder Yang''s every movement carefully.
From what her perfect copy had experienced, Tang Li Xue knew about Elder Yang''s cunningness very well.
Even the fake Crown Prince Feng fell into this Elder Yang''s trick in the cage of light before and almost lost his head.
Elder Yang sighed in disappointment and murmured: "Looks like we will never reach an agreement. It seems there is no other way than to fight each other."
Tang Li Xue''s five senses were very sharp, so she heard Elder Yang''s words very clearly.
"What did you say? Do you really not care anymore about this girl''s life?" Tang Li Xue asked Elder Yang with an angry tone, but she became quite nervous and anxious in her heart.
Elder Yang stared back at Tang Li Xue and sneered coldly while said: "Of course, I care. But¡"
Suddenly, something jumped from the cor of the perfect copy''s clothes toward the real Tang LiXue''s face!
Tang LiXue reflexively used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step]and swiftly jumped backward to dodge it, but unfortunately, she was still a tiny bit too slow.
PPPUUUFFF~!!!
Something very sharp had stabbed into her eyes!
"What the hell is this?! Red¡ needles? No, these are blood needles! But how could this thing¡" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock. She could not believe that something dangerous like these could tuck into her perfect copy''s clothes without her knowledge.
But Tang Li Xue''s words were stuck in her throat when she remembered who gave the pink dress to her perfect copy before.
''Damn it! I knew that pink dress was given by Elder Yang to my perfect copy before attending the night banquet, but I would never expect that he would slip something dangerous like this into its cor! Did he already feel suspicious at my perfect copy''s identity, so he put something like that to kill her if my perfect copy was proven to be the serial killer before? Argh, I should just choose the light blue dress given by Ye Zhen before!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anger while her mind hastily thought.
Actually, Elder Yang only put a few drops of his blood into the cor of the pink dress before gifting it to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy as a form of insurance and protection for her.
Because he was afraid that something out of his prediction would happen tonight and threaten the life of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
It was already proven that Elder Yang''s prediction waspletely on the spot since the life of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was already threatened twice tonight.
Elder Yang did not trigger these blood needles previously because he knew that the fake Crown Prince Feng would never hurt Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy before he came out from the light barrier.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was also under the effect of the fake Crown Prince Feng''s illusion, and he did not know how far the fake Crown Prince Feng''s illusion could control her. What if the fake Crown Prince Feng could still hurt Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy even after Elder Yang saved her from the fake Crown Prince Feng''s hands?!
Thus Elder Yang decided to wait for the more perfect timing to trigger these blood needles, and it was... right at this moment!
Elder Yang shed his crimson blood sword toward Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy, right when Tang Li Xue reflexively jumped backward to dodge the blood needles.
The edge of the crimson blood sword not only turned flexible but also split into many thin blood threads.
Several thin blood threads tied the body of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and pulled her toward Elder Yang.
Not only that, the rest of the thin blood threads even started attacking the real Tang Li Xue!
With her sharp [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue could still easily sense every thin blood thread that attacking her even without seeing with her eyes.
She pulled the rein of her Wind Riding Bird a bit upward and urged it to fly upwards to avoid the thin blood threads!
Tang Li Xue''s Wind Riding Bird immediately understood Tang Li Xue''s intention and pped its wings rapidly as it flew swiftly toward the cloud above it, but when it happens...
CLLLIIIINGGG~!!!
''Eh? What the hell is that sound?'' Tang Li Xue felt rmed in an instant, but unfortunately, it was still toote for her.
That metallic sound actually came from the ring ne around her neck!
Elder Yang''s blood threads attack was actually no more than a diversion, and his true target was to take this ring ne from Tang Li Xue''s neck!
Elder Yang skillfully controlled the blood needles that pierced Tang Li Xue''s eyes, and he made it as if the blood needles fell by themselves because of Tang Li Xue''s violent movement.
Then he changed it into a small hook to take the ring ne at Tang Li Xue''s neck while Tang Li Xue''s attention waspletely distracted by the blood threads attack.
When Tang Li Xue''s Wind Riding Bird flew upward toward the cloud, one of the blood threads joined with the small hook and pulled the ring ne from Tang Li Xue''s neck, then flew back toward Elder Yang.
All of his movements were very smooth as if he was a master fisherman that caught a fish.
Even Tang Li Xue agape in shock and disbelief.
She could hardly believe that Elder Yang could not only steal her hostage but also her precious treasure so easily.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath, and she finally saw Elder Yang as someone really dangerous to her for the first time.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy had the same memories after all.
Although she knew Elder Yang was her opponent, but she still has some soft spot for him because of her perfect copy''s memories with Elder Yang.
However, Tang Li Xue finally understood that treating Elder Yang like that would only backfire on her.
Her perfect copy was Elder Yang''s cherished friend, but she was Elder Yang''s enemy!
"Since when did you know my identity?" Tang Li Xue asked Elder Yang as she slowly opened her eyes again to stare at him.
Although Elder Yang''s blood needles attack was fatal enough to make any human blind, but Tang Li Xue was from Beast Race.
Elder Yang''s blood needles attack was nothing more than a scratch for any Beast Race since they could recover from any fatal wounds as long as their beast core was untouched.
Besides, Tang Li Xue has [High-Speed Regeneration] skill, and it made her self recovery ability above the other beasts. She only needed a few seconds topletely recover from those light wounds.
"From the very beginning, when you came to me. I do not know if you feel it too, but something inside me will starting to rage on if you came close to me." Elder Yang honestly answered Tang Li Xue''s question.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she heard Elder Yang''s answer.
Her me of Pride also acted the same way as Elder Yang had exined, so Tang Li Xue immediately knew where the problem lies in an instant.
''So his blood transformation abilities is not from his martial soul, but because he has one of the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits?!'' Tang Li Xue pondered carefully.
Suddenly, the Deep-Blue Phoenix of Pride that slept inside Tang Li Xue''s Dantian had woken up and told something very shocking to Tang Li Xue.
''Eh? What?! You are saying that you sensed Quanhai City''s blood monster from within him?! But that... It should be impossible, right? That blood monster might be one of the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits, but it belongs to the ck-masked old man from the demonic sect, and I already finished him off at Quanhai City with a super long-ranged arrow.'' Tang Li Xue replied to the Phoenix of Pride with her thought.
The Phoenix of Pride in Tang Li Xue''s Dantian started to throw a tantrum in anger because Tang Li Xue doubted its words.
''Listen to me, you little brat! No matter how great your fellows from the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits, they would still definitely die if the master they assimted died, right? So how the hell can it jump to another person and assimte with a new master?! It would still make sense if their cultivation is far too different apart and the previous master is still alive, but both of them are at Core Formation Stage, and I clearly already killed that old man with a super long-ranged arrow!'' Tang Li Xue expressed her doubt to the Phoenix of Pride.
But the Phoenix of Pride still affirmed to Tang Li Xue very firmly that it would never sense it wrongly.
''Oh, well... Whatever... No matter if he has one of the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits or not, he is still the enemy we need to defeat now. It is also good that you already awake from your sleep right now. Let''s go, Pride! You want to get your revenge and defeat it by yourself, aren''t you?'' Tang Li Xue smiled as she said to the Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian.
YYIIIIIIIIIII~!!!
The Phoenix of Pride shrilled loudly in excitement as it started to merge with Tang Li Xue.
[Perfect Assimtion]!
The extremely hot deep-blue me exploded out from Tang Li Xue''s slender body!
The feeling Tang Li Xue felt right now was a lot stronger than what she felt in Quanhai City before.
The [Pure Sun Dragon] Bloodline in her body and veins was boiling hot in excitement and euphoria.
Every cell in her body started to awaken like the mythical beast awoken from its long slumber.
Even Elder Yang was forced to retreat when he felt the sheer unbearable heating from Tang Li Xue''s body.
"Miss Chou, are you all right?" Elder Yang turned around and asked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, who stood on the top of his flying sword too with a worried tone.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shook her head and replied: "It is okay. I am all right."
"It will get more dangerous from now on here. You should get as far away from here as possible. I will give the control of this flying sword to you, so you can just fly away from here with it." Elder Yang told her with a stern tone.
"You want me to run away from here? But... I want to fight together with you..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied with a reluctant tone. Of course, she was only put an act in front of Elder Yang to gain his trust.
When Elder Yang and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy chatted, the real Tang Li Xue already unfurled her pair of deep-blue Phoenix wings and flew without her Wind Riding Bird.
Tang Li Xue pped the pair of deep-blue Phoenix wings on her back, and she swiftly flew with lightning speed toward Elder Yang!
Chapter 387: Pride VS Lust Rematch!
Chapter 387: Pride VS Lust Rematch!
[Sun Dragon ws]!
Two deep-blue mes swirled on Tang Li Xue''s left and right side, then it condensed into a pair of deep-blue dragon ws.
The dragon ws were emitting a frighteningly high temperature that made the surrounding air seemed dry in an instant like in the scorching desert.
Even Elder Yang could feel the searing heat on his skin as if he was already incinerated by ordinary me, even though the [Sun Dragon ws] did not even touch him yet.
"Watch out! Retreat now!" Elder Yang shouted with a solemn expression as he hastily jumped forward and controlled his flying sword to quickly fly backward, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, who still stood on the top of the flying sword, did not get involved in their life-threatening duel.
Tang Li Xue sneered coldly as she saw Elder Yang jumped right toward her instead!
She swung her right palm using all of her strength while pped her Phoenix Wings condensed from the deep-blue me of Pride on her back to increase her speed even more!
The right [Sun Dragon w] followed the movement of Tang Li Xue''s right hand and brandished its extremely high-temperature w toward Elder Yang.
[Blood of Lust]''s first ability... [Blood Shield]!
The crimson blood sword in Elder Yang''s grasp absorbed more of his blood, and the blood on the edge of the crimson blood sword got a lot thickened.
Elder Yang put on the guard stance and held the crimson blood sword nted in front of him.
The blood on the crimson blood sword formed a thick [Blood Shield] in an instant, and it hardened like an unbreakable steel shield.
It only took several milliseconds for Tang Li Xue''s right [Sun Dragon w] to finally meet with Elder Yang''s thick [Blood Shield] after hepletely formed it!
Pride VS Lust.
Fire VS Water.
Both of them were from 7 Earthly Desire Spirits.
The [Blood of Lust] was actually much more matured and a lot stronger than [me of Pride] before, but it got badly impaired when its previous master, the ck-masked old man, was killed by Elder Yang... or rather Tang Li Xue''s arrow.
It even got forcefully subjugated by Elder Yang''s martial soul, so the strength between [Blood of Lust] and [me of Pride] was more or less on the same level right now.
There was the question when the sh between the strongest sword against the strongest shield happens, which one would win?
The answer was actually very simple.
When the equally powerful sword and shield shed against each other, the result was depending on their user''s strength, skill, and ability!
Tang Li Xue was lost to Elder Yang in their previous sh in Tang Feng City before because she only relied on her [me of Pride] to attack Elder Yang.
But right now?
In the [Perfect Assimtion] mode, she perfectly assimted the [me of Pride] and the [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline in her body, it pushed the me strength by several levels higher.
Moreover, she was even using one of her most offensive divine abilities, [Sun Dragon ws], with it!
Of course, it did not mean Elder Yang would certainly lose because he was also using his martial soul, [Nine Petal Blood Lotus], and Core Formation Stage''s Qi to boost the strength of his [Blood of Lust] by several levels too!
Tang Li Xue''s right [Sun Dragon w] pounded very hard onto Elder Yang thick [Blood Shield]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Elder Yang''s [Blood Shield] exploded to pieces by Tang Li Xue''s right [Sun Dragon w], and he was thrown off tens of meters backward on the sky, but he was only lightly injured because of it!
Tang Li Xue''s current main objective right now was to retrieve her ring ne back from Elder Yang, and she would not mind pounding Elder Yang several more times until his face was ck and blue.
Beating the super genius from the human race until he begged for mercy and gave back her ring ne...
just imagining it made Tang Li Xue''s blood boil with excitement, and her heart was beating with anticipation.
That was why Tang Li Xue would never let Elder Yang off that easily.
Tang Li Xue pped her deep-blue Phoenix Wing and shed forward to approach Elder Yang again.
Elder Yang stared at Tang Li Xue without any expression while making a grasping gesture.
The shattered thick [Blood Shield] turned back into the liquid form and assembled into several sharp blood daggers.
The several sharp blood daggers shot toward Tang Li Xue''s back, and their speed was unbelievable fast like the bullets fired from the rifle.
With her sharp [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue could already sense the several sharp blood daggers flew toward her from behind even without turned her head around.
Tang Li Xue started spinning violently in the air to dodge the several sharp blood daggers behind her.
The center of gravity and the direction of her flight becamepletely unpredictable as she was wiggling to left and right, up and down.
Even the several sharp blood daggers could no longer lock onto Tang Li Xue''s body anymore and missed a few inches from its target.
But under Elder Yang''s perfect control, the several sharp blood daggers stopped on mid-air after it missed Tang Li Xue and turned around facing Tang Li Xue, then shooting toward her again.
Tang Li Xue, who still spinning unpredictably, easily dodged the several sharp blood daggers again.
However, the several sharp blood daggers were still relentlessly chasing after Tang Li Xue like a group of homing missiles.
Meanwhile, Elder Yang himself did not stand still and do nothing. He took out tens of flying swords from her spatial ring and scattered them around him.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper when she saw what Elder Yang had done with her [Extrasensory Perception] and thought in suspicion: ''What does he n to do? Don''t tell me he really thought that these blood daggers and those flying swords could really kill me just because I choose to dodge all of them now?''
The reason why Tang Li Xue chose to ignore the blood daggers and decided to only avoid them was because she knew that the [Blood of Lust] could easily change between three forms: gas (vapor), liquid, and solid.
Even if she decided topletely evaporate these blood daggers with her extremely high temperature [me of Pride], they could still instantly change from vapor into solid again.
''Truly a troublesome and annoying Earthly Desire Spirit! Here I thought I already eliminated it along with that old man from Demonic Sect in Quanhai City before. Sigh... Are the other Earthly Desire Spirits also like this?'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in distress.
Though the several sharp blood daggers slowdown Tang Li Xue a bit, but she still managed to reach Elder Yang in only a few seconds!
Tang Li Xue swung both of her hands in cross sh move now, and a pair of deep-blue dragon ws on her right and left side followed the movement of her hands in an instant by attacking Elder Yang with the same motion!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
But Elder Yang was no longer there!
He did not stand on the top of that flying sword anymore andpletely vanished from Tang Li Xue''s vision!
''What the...?! How could he...'' Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock, but before her mind could process what Elder Yang had done, Elder Yang already began his counterattack to Tang Li Xue.
[Consecutive Whip shes]!
Elder Yang rapidly swung his crimson blood sword as the edge of his crimson blood sword turned flexible at the same time.
Elder Yang''s rapid attacks were crashing toward Tang Li Xue from above her head, so she did not have enough time to counterattack or dodge it, so she decided to protect her head and back with both of her hands.
The pair of [Sun Dragon ws] followed the movement of Tang Li Xue''s hands and crossed above Tang Li Xue''s body to block Elder Yang''s rapid attacks.
BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG...
Elder Yang''s fierce attacks mercilessly rained upon Tang Li Xue from above.
Tang Li Xue started to lose her altitude and plunged from the sky because Elder Yang''s fierce attacks kept pressing her down.
While Elder Yang jumped from one flying sword to another flying sword, again and again, to keep sticking with Tang Li Xue and shing his crimson blood sword toward her continuously.
Elder Yang did not even give Tang Li Xue any more chances to initiate any attack.
''Damn! So he nned to use all of his flying swords like this?! He is using them as the footholds for him to gain his mobility in the sky since he does not have any wings or ability to fly by himself!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as she used all of her focus to block Elder Yang''s rapid fierce attacks.
Elder Yang''s attacks did not onlye from above Tang Li Xue anymore but from all directions now!
If not for her [Extrasensory Perception]bined with her several upgrade skills such as: [Razor-Sharp Mind], [Precise Calction], [urate Prediction], [Improved Concentration], [Increase Reaction Speed], and [Intense Focus], it would be impossible for Tang Li Xue to block all of Elder Yang''s rapid fierce attacks like this.
Elder Yang also realized that even his intense rapid attacks were still far from enough to injure Tang Li Xue, so he immediately controlled the several sharp blood daggers to shot toward Tang Li Xue too.
Just when the several sharp blood daggers almost lodged onto Tang Li Xue''s back, she suddenly murmured to Elder Yang: "This is it? Is this what you only capable of? Then it is my turn now."
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The several sharp blood daggers along with the flexible edge of Elder Yang''s crimson blood sword evaporated in an instant as a loud shrill of phoenix cry reverberated through the sky!
YYYIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~!!!
Even Elder Yang''s body was thrown off by several tens of meters again because of the explosion, and some parts of his body were scorched by iparably high temperature from Tang Li Xue''s direction.
Elder Yang widened his eyes in shock and disbelief as he stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect slender figure under the moonlight.
Tang Li Xue''s entire body waspletely wrapped by the extremely hot deep-blue me without any opening at all.
"I want to see if you can still touch me after I wear my [Phoenix Cloak]." Tang Li Xue said as she stared back fearlessly at Elder Yang.
This [Phoenix Cloak] skill was the upgraded version of Tang Li Xue''s previous skill, [me Cloak].
Butpared to the previous [me Cloak] which was only made from the mass of me of Pride, this [Phoenix Cloak] made from the intensepression of deep-blue me of Pride and emitting the super high-temperature several times of the ordinary [me Cloak].
Chapter 388: Elder Yangs True Prowess!
Chapter 388: Elder Yang''s True Prowess!
With the super high temperature of [Phoenix Cloak] covering her entire body, Tang Li Xue only need to approach Elder Yang to roast him alive.
Not to mention if she managed to touch Elder Yang directly, his entire body might even be evaporated in an instant.
Elder Yang frowned deeply when he felt the unbelievable scorching temperature on his surrounding with his skin, and Tang Li Xue was still tens of meters away from him right now.
He could already easily imagine how worse it would be if Tang Li Xue tried to initiate close-quarterbat with him right now.
Just like Elder Yang has predicted, Tang Li Xue pped her pair of deep-blue Phoenix Wings and shed toward Elder Yang. It seemed she was really eager to approach Elder Yang and fight close-quarterbat with him.
Of course, Elder Yang would never follow Tang Li Xue''s will.
He quickly took another flying sword from his spatial ring and rode it to keep his distance from Tang Li Xue.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s flying speed with her Phoenix Wing was quite fast. To be exact, it was a bit faster than the speed of Elder Yang''s flying sword, so it was not that easy for Elder Yang to stay away from Tang Li Xue.
"Come on! Don''t you want to catch me? Why are you running away from me instead? But do you really think that you can get away so easily from me?" Tang Li Xue said in a mocking tone while giggled mischievously.
The pair of Phoenix Wing behind Tang Li Xue''s back suddenly distorted as it changed into something else.
Elder Yang immediately felt rmed as he injected more of his blood onto his crimson blood sword.
BBBWWOOOOOOOOOSSSSHHH~!!!
The deafening sound suddenly blew out behind Tang Li Xue, and her slender figure shed toward Elder Yang with the speed several times faster than before!
"What?! How could..." Elder Yang widened his eyes in shock and shouted in disbelief, but Tang Li Xue already arrived right in front of his eyes even before he could finish his words.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon ws] once again struck heavily onto Elder Yang''s [Blood Shield].
This time, Elder Yang''s [Blood Shield] did not only shattered butpletely evaporated in an instant when Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon ws] smashed it!
It seems the searing heat of Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon ws] further increased when Tang Li Xue activated her [Phoenix Cloak].
The principle was not too difficult to understand because the bigger the me, the hotter it would be.
As for why tang Li Xue could suddenly flying several times faster than before, it was because she used the rocket boost principle bypressed her [me of Pride], then detonated it to propel herself forward.
It was more or less the upgraded version of her previous [Fire Dash] skill, and she decided to call it [Sun Dragon sh] because she could only use it thanks to her [Pure Sun Dragon] Bloodline that gave her perfect control over the me of Pride.
Of course, she could only fly forward using this [Sun Dragon sh] unless she could detonate anotherpressed [me of Pride] on her right side to turn left, just like the rocket ignited their propellers to turn.
But Tang Li Xue''s control over the me of Pride had not reached that level yet. Even to use [Sun Dragon sh] once, she would need a few seconds topress her [me of Pride] before she could detonate it.
The flying sword under Elder Yang''s feet was melted under Tang Li Xue''s high temperature, and Elder Yang was thrown off backward tens of meters again.
Elder Yang was wounded by Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon w] attack, but most of its destructive force was received by his [Blood Shield] until it waspletely evaporated.
The searing heat emitted by Tang Li Xue was actually the one that hurt Elder Yang the most.
Elder Yang gritted his teeth to withstand the searing pain from all over his body. He felt as if he was being roasted alive by the extremely high temperature emitting by Tang Li Xue.
''I do not want to reveal too much of my strength here, but it seems I have no other choice right now. Sigh... I can only hope that the Elders of Immortal Sword Sect would not feel too suspicious if they managed to catch a glimpse of it.'' Elder Yang regretfully thought in his mind.
How could Tang Li Xue thrash the super-genius of Lightwind Continent from Human Race so easily?!
Moreover, he already reached the mid-rank Core Formation Stage. It was two and half entire stages above Tang Li Xue.
In fact, Elder Yang relied only on his [Blood of Lust] and his martial soul, [Nine Petal Blood Lotus], to fight against Tang Li Xue from the start.
He never even used his martial arts at all!
Whereas Human Race''s biggest advantage over the Beast Race was in their countless vary of martial arts that made them extremely adaptable in any kind of situation and unpredictable to Beast Race.
But Tang Li Xue failed to realize it, and she became even more confident instead because she managed to knock Elder Yang back again and again.
BBBWWOOOOOOOOOSSSSHHH~!!!
Tang Li Xue bravely used her [Sun Dragon sh] once more to swiftly chasing after the thrown off Elder Yang while swung her right hand toward him.
The right [Sun Dragon w] precisely followed the movement of Tang Li Xue''s right hand in an instant and swung down toward Elder Yang.
If Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon w] managed to sh onto Elder Yang''s body, it would certainly not only leave any gaping bleeding wounds but something much worse than that.
But Elder Yang was already decided to show some fraction of his true prowess to teach Tang Li Xue a lesson.
Just when Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon w] almost tore Elder Yang''s chest, the thick ck Qi suddenly burst out and enveloped Elder Yang''s entire body!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
There was no explosion this time¡ The thick ck Qi around Elder Yang''s body effortlessly blocked Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon w]!
"What the hell is that?!" Tang Li Xue frowned and eximed in surprise.
She immediately felt rmed and decided to fly away to keep some distance from the thick ck Qi that enveloped Elder Yang''s body.
But she found out that the right [Sun Dragon w] was stuck on the thick ck Qi, and she could no longer pull it away.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and decided to abandon the right [Sun Dragon w] in that instant, then retreated away from the thick ck Qi since her [Extrasensory Perception] already sensed that the thick ck Qi gave a very dangerous feeling to her.
A few seconds after Tang Li Xue retreated from it, the thick ck Qi morphed into the giant pair of ck hands!
The giant pair of ck hands were covered by thick ck scales, and it also has sharp ws at the tip of every finger.
The giant pair of ck hands really did not look like human hands at all. It looked more like demon hands.
Elder Yang emerged out again after the thick ck Qipletely formed into the giant pair of ck demon hands.
The right ck demon hand was actually grasping at the right [Sun Dragon w] very tightly that was the reason why Tang Li Xue could not pull it away or make it budge from there.
Elder Yang red at Tang Li Xue while making a squeezing gesture with his right hand, then right at that moment, the ck demon''s right hand followed the movement of Elder Yang''s right hand and crushed the [Sun Dragon w] in its grasp!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The [Sun Dragon w] was made from the condensation andpression of Tang Li Xue''s [me of Pride], so it immediately exploded the moment it got crushed by the ck demon''s right hand.
The extremely high temperature from the explosion could no longer hurt Elder Yang since the faint ck Qi was still protecting his entire body like a barrier.
Now, it was Tang Li Xue''s turn to feel shocked and disbelief¡
The [Sun Dragon w] was one of her most powerful offensive divine abilities, but Elder Yang could easily resolve it like it was nothing at all.
"This is it? Is this what you only capable of?" Elder Yang said to Tang Li Xue.
Yes, Elder Yang repeated what Tang Li Xue had said to him before.
Tang Li Xue''s face turned red in embarrassment when Elder Yang threw her own words back into her face.
If Tang Li Xue did not wear a veil to make her facepletely blurry and unrecognizable, Elder Yang would definitely be mesmerized by her innocent yet adorable blushing expression.
Unfortunately, Elder Yang could not see it at all, so he mercilessly continued to say the next part of Tang Li Xue''s previous words: "Then it is my turn now."
Elder Yang made a few hand signs while said to Tang Li Xue again: "Your control over your elemental spirit is quite good, but your way of using it is too crude. You rely too much on your elemental spirit. I will let you have a glimpse of the correct way to use the elemental spirit."
Afterpleted his hand signs, Elder Yang bit his right thumb and his blood started to flown out profusely to the giant pair of ck demon hands.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not want to let Elder Yang finish what Elder Yang wanted to do, but her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed that she would be in great danger if she carelessly approached Elder Yang while the giant pair of ck demon hands were still protecting him.
Because her [urate Prediction] skill estimated that if she approached Elder Yang right now, she would definitely get caught into the grasp of those giant pair of ck demon hands, and she could not get out so easily with her current strength.
Then she would be forced to choose between get crushed by those giant pair of ck demon hands and died or use her [Swap] skill to switch her ce with her perfect copy and let her perfect copy die in her ce.
Tang Li Xue did not want any of it to happen, so she decided to not carelessly approach Elder Yang or let him approach her.
It only took a few seconds for Elder Yang to transfer a small part of his blood to the giant pair of ck demon hands.
There were shining crimson-like veins at the giant pair of ck demon hands right now.
The shining crimson-like veins made the giant pair of ck demon hands looked much more eerie, intimidating, and terrifying than before.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue already condensed another [Sun Dragon w] with her [me of Pride] too.
"Are you ready? I will start attacking you now." Elder Yang even kindly reminded Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue felt even more suspicious at Elder Yang and became warier toward him, but she still decided to reply: "I am ready¡"
Elder Yang immediately threw a punch toward Tang Li Xue, right after she said that she was ready, and the ck demon''s giant right hand floated on Elder Yang''s right side vanished in an instant.
Tang Li Xue reflexively crossed both of her hands in front of her chest to defend herself as fast as she could.
The pair of [Sun Dragon ws] swiftly followed the movement of Tang Li Xue''s hands and crossed right in front of Tang Li Xue to protect her.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The pair of [Sun Dragon ws] was crumbled and exploded by the powerful punch from the ck demon hand.
The ck demon fist still did not stop and smashed heavily onto Tang Li Xue''s slender body!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAANGG~!!~
Tang Li Xue suddenly understood why Elder Yang kindly reminded her about it.
It was because he was confident that Tang Li Xue would still fail to defend from his attack even if he reminded her first!
In short, Elder Yang reminded Tang Li Xue first before attacking was not out of his kindness, but to mock her instead.
Chapter 389: Escaping From Elder Yang!
Chapter 389: Escaping From Elder Yang!
Tang Li Xue could hear the terrifying sounds of cracking when so many bones in her body started to fracture and broke to pieces under the immense strength of the ck demon fist, some of her weaker internal organs even already imploded because of it.
Right at this moment, Tang Li Xue could feel what it was like when an ordinary person got hit by a high-speed truck.
Some part of Tang Li Xue''s mind suddenly felt really relieved that she did not get transmigrated into another world by the truck crashing ident like some clich¨¦ main protagonists in many novels.
If her resistance to pain was not high enough because she had a very sickly body in her previous life and withstood many painful experiences in this life, Tang Li Xue might already be bawling and screaming in pain right now.
-39,671!
The monstrous amount of damage had appeared on Tang Li Xue''s system notification.
This might be Tang Li Xue''s first time had received the amount of damage with five-digit numbers.
Almost half of her total HP was depleted, and it was only Elder Yang''s first attack! It was clear for anyone to see that Elder Yang did not even put all of his strength into this first attack.
Tang Li Xue''s consciousness started to get blurred, and she spurted out out several mouthfuls of blood along with some small pieces of her internal organs from her mouth.
Her slender body was thrown off limply more than thirty meters backward and kept falling from the sky with a quite high speed.
Yaya could no longer watch it silently anymore from under Tang Li Xue''s hood.
She swiftly flew out from under Tang Li Xue''s hood and caught Tang Li Xue''s hood from above to prevent Tang Li Xue from falling off and rammed onto the hard ground.
Fortunately, Yaya was really strong despite her tiny body size, so she could easily stop Tang Li Xue''s falling momentum and support Tang Li Xue''s body in the sky.
Tang Li Xue''s white-colored Wind Riding Bird also reacted really fast and quickly flew toward Tang Li Xue and Yaya.
When Yaya saw that the white Wind Riding Bird already arrived near her, she immediately put the half-fainted Tang Li Xue onto its soft feathered back.
Although Tang Li Xue''s condition was quite worse, but her [High-Speed Regeneration] skill already started working to gradually heal her wounds. It probably only took several minutes for all of Tang Li Xue''s wounds topletely recovered.
But of course, Elder Yang would never wait that long patiently until Tang Li Xuepletely recovered.
While Tang Li Xue was still in a groggy state, Elder Yang already initiated another attack toward Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the Wind Riding Bird.
Elder Yang already rode on his flying sword and flying very quickly toward them while making a grasping gesture with his right hand.
Followed Elder Yang''s hand gesture, the giant right hand of the ck demon opened its palm and flew with unbelievable speed toward Tang Li Xue''s group as if it was trying to catch all of them into its grasp.
Yaya was the fastest to react and waved both of her tiny hands toward the giant ck demon hand.
[Compressed Wind de]!
BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡
Several extremely sharp [Compressed Wind des] shot toward the giant ck demon hand under Yaya''s control.
But all of Yaya''s [Compressed Wind des] even failed to leave any scratch on the giant ck demon hand.
Yaya realized in an instant that she could not destroy the giant ck demon''s hand by herself.
Even the fire elemental like [me of Pride] with the destructive power as its biggest advantage was failed to destroy that giant ck demon hand, let alone her wind elemental which biggest advantage was on its speed.
So Yaya immediately decided to change her strategy.
Rather than try to destroy it, Yaya chose to slow down its speed as much as possible instead this time.
Yaya herself, with her extremely high speed, could easily dodge the giant ck demon''s hand, but Wind Riding Bird and Tang Li Xue were unable to.
Yaya herself, with its extremely high speed, could easily avoid the giant ck demon hand, but Wind Riding Bird and the half-fainted Tang Li Xue were unable to do it.
Yaya swung both of her tiny hands forward again, and the air on her surrounding solidified in that instant.
[High-Pressure Air Bullet]!
Tens of [High-Pressure Air Bullets] shot toward the giant ck demon hand with the speed faster than wind.
BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡
Yayapressed these [High-Pressure Air Bullets] intending to knock away the giant ck demon hand, but it seems all of her [High-Pressure Air Bullets] did not even affect the giant ck demon hand at all.
The Wind Riding Bird already flew away as fast as it could, but the giant ck demon hand was still getting closer and closer toward it.
It would probably only took several milliseconds for the giant ck demon hand to grab the Wind Riding Bird along with Tang Li Xue and the others on its back.
However, Yaya gritted her teeth with a very firm expression and refused to give up.
[Tempest Prison]!
The small typhoonpressed from the surrounding wind and air imprisoned the giant ck demon hand within it, but it only took less than half-second for the giant ck demon hand to forcefully tear through it.
The giant ck demon hand kept approaching the Wind Riding Bird, and it only less than one meter behind them.
''Not yet!'' Yaya still refused to give up until the very end!
[Hurricane Barrier]!
The tempest of wind started raging around Wind Riding Bird and Yaya, then the raging wind formed a tornado wall around them.
Unfortunately, Yaya''s [Hurricane Barrier] was still far from enough to stop the giant ck demon hand.
The giant ck demon hand broke through Yaya''s [Hurricane Barrier] by force and made a grasping motion as if it wanted to grab onto the Wind Riding Bird, Tang Li Xue, and Yaya.
Yaya thought that she was already strong enough, and she was so eager to try out her new strength, but right now, she finally realized that her strength was still far from enough to protect Tang Li Xue and herself.
''Is it really hopeless?'' Yaya thought as she felt really disappointed with herself.
Just when the giant ck demon hand almost caught the Wind Riding Bird, Tang Li Xue, and Yaya into its grasp¡
Thezy little Loki suddenly jumped out from under Tang Li Xue''s ck cloak and gracefullynded on the top of Wind Riding Bird''s head, just right beside Yaya right now.
Little Loki fearless stared at the giant ck demon hand that came closer and closer toward them while patted at Yaya''s tiny head as if it was trying to say: ''you are quite good already. You can leave it to me now.''
The size of Little Loki was actually still a bit smaller than Yaya, but it looked really dependable right now.
When the giant ck demon hand touched the Wind Riding Bird and closed its palm, Little Loki suddenly opened its mouth and¡
BBBWWWOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
The giant ck demon hand was sucked into Little Loki''s mouth!
The scene was absolutely bizarre since a tiny-sized Little Loki with its mouth that might be even smaller than a ping pong ball could devour the giant ck demon hand as big as arge truck.
Yaya dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief.
Even Elder Yang blinked his eyes again and again since he could not believe what he had seen with his own eyes.
Little Loki licked its mouth as if he just ate something delicious, then it stared at Elder Yang with its third eye while its pair of eyes remain closed as usual.
When Elder Yang''s eyes met with Little Loki''s third eye¡ Suddenly, a dreadful feeling flooded into Elder Yang''s heart.
Elder Yang abruptly retreated a few tens of meters from the Wind Riding Bird to keep more distance from Little Loki.
"What kind of monster is that?" Elder Yang murmured fearfully while frowned deeper.
Elder Yang did not know the reason why he felt fear toward a little ck kitten like Little Loki.
Elder Yang never felt any fear toward anyone before.
Not with Mo Chonglin¡ Not with his grandfather¡ Not with Immortal Sword Sect''s Patriarch¡
Elder Yang did not even know Little Loki''s species yet.
His fear wasing from something in the deepest of his soul, just like what the mouse felt when it met with a cat, but much worse than that.
But it all made sense since Little Loki let out his terrifying aura on purpose to threaten Elder Yang.
Who was Little Loki?
It was Taotie, the strongest of Four Evil Fiend Beasts!
The apex predator in Divine World was feared by everyone, including Gods and Deities alike.
Then why Little Loki did not just devour Elder Yang in one gulp?
Actually, Little Loki could easily do that, but it will fall into deep sleep again just like before since Elder Yang had an abnormallyrge amount of spirit energy inside his body.
It might be rted to the inheritance of the Asura Demon King he got before, and that might be also the reason why Elder Yang could improve his cultivation so fast.
Anyway, Little Loki did not want to devour Elder Yang and fall back into a deep sleep like before if it was not really necessary, so it decided to threaten Elder Yang with its terrifying aura instead.
Wind Riding Bird quickly took this chance to p its wings and brought Tang Li Xue and her group to get away from there as fast as possible.
Elder Yang really wanted to chase after Tang Li Xue and her group, but Little Loki''s presence made him felt that something worst will happen if he decided to do it.
Elder Yang gritted his teeth and pondered it carefully for a few moments.
Meanwhile, the two Nascent Soul Stage Elders that chased after Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi before finally came toward Elder Yang to meet with him.
Elder Yang wanted to order them to chase after Tang Li Xue''s group instead, but he suddenly felt something really bad happening right now.
"Not good!" Elder Yang shouted in an anxious tone.
Elder Yang made everyone in the night banquet drank his special wine that already mixed with his blood before, so he could easily expose the serial killer''s disguise and track anyone of them anywhere.
But right now, Elder Yang could feel that those fainted people in the night banquet area actually got killed one by one right at this moment!
"How could it be?! Did the serial killer actually have more aplices?" Elder Yang murmured in disbelief.
The two Nascent Soul Stage Elders who just came here looked at Elder Yang and knew in an instant that something was not right, so they decided to ask him: "Elder Yang, what happen?"
Chapter 390: Ulterior Motive!
Chapter 390: Ulterior Motive!
"We must get back to Imperial Pce now! There is something bad happening there!" Elder Yang replied to the two Nascent Soul Stage elders, but he did not bother to exin it very clearly because they already ran out of time.
Elder Yang rode his flying sword toward the direction of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy while the two Nascent Soul Stage elders followed him closely from behind.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was currently still riding on the top of Elder Yang''s previous flying sword and hid under Elder Yang''s instruction.
She had actually watched the battle between Elder Yang and her real self really clearly from afar.
Then why did she not do anything to help the real Tang Li Xue?
The answer to this question would be revealed sooner orter¡
"Are you all right? Those people did not injure you, right?" Elder Yang asked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in a worried tone when he approached her.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and softly said while weakly smiled in regret: "I am okay... But I am really sorry for bing a burden to you and your people. I even held as hostage twice tonight."
Her fragile weak smilebined with her peerless beauty looked so beautiful as the blooming white lotus under the moonlight.
No one would probably have the heart to me her after seeing this fragile yet stunning smile of hers.
Just like what Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had predicted, Elder Yang immediately replied with aforting tone: "That is all right. You do not need to apologize because all of those are not your fault. Even if those people did not take you as their hostage, they could take any random people as their hostage, so you do not need to feel guilty about it."
"There is something bad happening in Imperial Pce right now, so we must return there as soon as possible. How about you? I know you must have been quite frightened already, but I still suggest for you to stick with us at least until everything is over. It would be really bad if those ck-clothed people caught you again without our knowledge and locked you up at somewhere we do not know, then use you as a hostage to threaten us." Elder Yang exined to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to persuade her to always stick with them until all of these werepletely over.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nodded back at Elder Yang with a solemn expression and said: "I understand. I will follow you until everything is over. Let''s not waste any more time here and go back to Imperial Pce now before it is toote."
Elder Yang smiled at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and nodded at her. He felt really d for Tang Li Xue''s concern.
Elder Yang did not want Tang Li Xue to feel ufortable, so he decided to take out a luxurious-looking carriage from his spatial ring.
Elder Yang only rode this luxurious-looking carriage if he traveled to a faraway ce and need several days to reach there, but he decided to make an exception right now and let Tang Li Xue rode it with him to head toward the Imperial Pce.
The two Nascent Soul Stage Elders did not say anything. They rode on the top of their flying sword and only silently escorting behind the luxurious carriage.
"This carriage is sofortable." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in amazement while her eyes darted around to carefully inspect the luxurious carriage interior.
Elder Yang chuckled when he saw the excited Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy since she looked so innocent and childish at the same time.
"I can give it to you if you really like it." Elder Yang said as he sat on the opposite seat from Tang Li Xue.
"Eh? Is that really okay? This carriage looks very luxurious, so it must be really expensive, right?"? Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked.
"Yes, it is really expensive, but I will still give it to you if you really like it." Elder Yang replied nonchntly.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stared suspiciously at Elder Yang and asked again: "Really? You will not use it to ckmail me againter, aren''t you? I remember you gave me your jade insigniast time, and I used it to enter Lin Family''s residence, but you used it to ckmail mest time."
Elder Yangughed out loud when he heard the words from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy puffed her cheek and pouted cutely while said: "Humph, I would never dare to receive any more things from you again because of it. So what if this carriage looks luxurious andfortable, I bet it will be destroyed in an instant if someone attacked from outside. Besides that, can this carriage even prevent anyone outside from sensing or hearing us?"
Elder Yang muffled hisughter and started to exin patiently: "Do not look down on this carriage. It has very strong defensive arrays carved on it. Even Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator would need to attack more than ten times to break through its defensive arrays. Those defensive arrays also prevent any outsider from sensing or hearing us."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her eyes in disbelief and eximed again in surprise: "Is this carriage really that powerful?! Then how can you want to give it to me just like that? Elder Yang, you are bing more and more suspicious. I am getting more afraid of receiving it from you now. You definitely have an ulterior motive to me, aren''t you?"
Elder Yangughed again and said: "This carriage given by Immortal Sword Sect''s Patriarch to me. I can just give this carriage to you and said to Patriarch that it got destroyed in battle, then he will definitely give me a new er."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy dropped her jaw at Elder Yang''s shamelessness and replied in surprise: "You are really¡"
COUGH¡ COUGH¡ COUGH¡
But before she could finish her words, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suddenly coughed out several mouthfuls of blood.
"Miss Chou!" Elder Yang felt really shocked by it, and he worriedly held the shoulder of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, then started to channel his Qi toward her to check on her condition.
Elder Yang immediately detected very serious internal injuries from the body of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, so he quickly took out a bottle of Internal Wound Recovery pills from his spatial ring.
"Elder Yang¡ I have¡ something very important¡ to say to you¡ can youe closer to me¡" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy weakly said to Elder Yang.
Elder Yangplied the request from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and came closer to her while uncorked the bottle of Internal Wound Recovery pills in his grasp.
Right now, Elder Yang''s face was only a few centimeters from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy. She could even feel Elder Yang''s warm breathes on her face.
"I¡ Cough¡ I actually... have a..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said as she kept staring earnestly at Elder Yang''s eyes.
"Yes, what you have for me?" Elder Yang stared back at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a gentle and caring gaze while tried to feed her the Internal Wound Recovery pill.
Then all of a sudden, the stunningly beautiful Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy changed into a girlpletely covered in ck clothes!
"Big surprise for you!" The real Tang Li Xue continued her perfect copy''s words while activated her most effective hidden trump card!
Regalia of Eclipse¡ [Eclipse of Desire]!
The mysterious eye between Tang Li Xue''s eyebrows was opened at that one moment.
In that instant, Elder Yang saw that all of the scenes in front of his eyes was faded away and reced by an ethereal eclipse.
Then Elder Yang''s eyes turned nk and soulless as if his soul was taken by Tang Li Xue''s mysterious eye.
Of course, Elder Yang''s soul was still in his own body, but only his consciousness that fallen into the illusion from Tang Li Xue''s [Eclipse of Desire].
"Haiyahh~! Elder Yang~! Oh, Elder Yang~! No matter how smart or scheming you are, you still fall into my trap in the end. Tsk, tsk, tsk¡ It is really not wrong that the proverb said: Beauty''s embrace is the grave for all heroes." Tang Li Xue said as she released herself from Elder Yang''s embrace and pushed Elder Yang back into his seat.
"Wait¡ It is me that was in his embrace, right? Oh, well¡ Whatever!" Tang Li Xue murmured and giggled happily as she took Elder Yang''s spatial ring from his finger.
Tang Li Xue carefully checked Elder Yang''s spatial ring and eximed in shock: "Woah~!!! There are so many expensive-looking things here! What a rich person?! Tsk, tsk, tsk¡ It seems I really struck gold¡ No! I struck a gold mine this time! Woah¡ Just look at this small mountain of Spirit Stones¡"
After checking the content carefully, Tang Li Xue took out her ring ne from Elder Yang''s spatial ring and wore it on her neck again.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she wore the ring ne again and murmured to herself: "Strange¡ Why do I feel that this ring ne is very important to me? I only lost it for a few minutes, but I already felt really anxious and uneasy before. Sigh... I wonder where do I get this ring ne before? If it is really very important for me, then why I cannot even remember where I get it from..."
Tang Li Xue shook her head and decided to forget about all of those unimportant things for new.
She focused her mind on something in front of her eyes right now¡
Yes, she was staring at the nk-looking Elder Yang and pondered carefully her next move!
"Now, what should I do to you? Should I just kill you right now to eliminate the threat from the most terrifying genius of the Human Race in Lightwind Continent?" Tang Li Xue said while smiled coldly at Elder Yang.
"Or maybe I could just cripple your cultivation once and for all, so you can quit your life as a cultivator and live like a normal person? At least you can still live as a merchant, farmer, schr, or even martial art teacher that way." Tang Li Xue said again as she gently patted Elder Yang''s cheek and squished it.
Tang Li Xue pondered her choices really carefully, but he immediately remembered Instructor Mei Lan''s words to kill Elder Yang if she had a chance to do it.
Tang Li Xue''s eyes glinted with cold light as she raised her right palm, and it started to glow with a silver radiance.
Chapter 391: Fragment of Forgotten Memories!
Chapter 391: Fragment of Forgotten Memories!
[Moonlight sh]!
Elder Yang''s fate waspletely in Tang Li Xue''s hand right now.
If Tang Li Xue decided to stab at Elder Yang''s heart or take Elder Yang''s head, then Elder Yang would definitely dead.
But if Tang Li Xue used her [Moonlight sh] and stabbed her palm at Elder Yang''s Dantian, then his cultivation would certainly be crippled, and he could no longer be a cultivator for the rest of his life.
Actually, Tang Li Xue already stabbed her palm toward Elder Yang''s neck after she recalled Instructor Mei Lan''s words to kill Elder Yang if she had a chance to do it in the future.
But somehow her palm stopped moving by itself after it reached a few centimeters from Elder Yang''s neck.
Cold sweat started to drip from her forehead as Tang Li Xue''s heart was beating so fast that she felt suffocated, and she even started to breathe heavily.
For some unknown reason, Tang Li Xue felt her heart was screaming that she should not do anything to harm Elder Yang, and she would make the biggest sin if she did anything untoward to Elder Yang.
Then Tang Li Xue''s memories when he first met with Elder Yang started toe to her mind.
"Is the roasted meat I cook taste that delicious?"
"Come to think of it, I never asked for your name before. Who is your name?"
"All right, Young Miss Chou¡ what is the name of your husband? Who knows if I know him too?!"
"My name is Yang Zhiyun, the Honorary Elder of Immortal Sword Sect. If you met with any trouble on your way home, just show that jade insignia, and say you are my good friend."
¡..
Tang Li Xue began to hesitate and pondered it more carefully: ''This Elder Yang¡ is really not a bad person¡ No, he is a very friendly and kind-hearted person. Maybe I should not kill someone nice like him¡''
''Sigh¡ Unfortunately, he is the super genius from Immortal Sword Sect, so he would definitely be a strong enemy for my Fox Race sooner orter. At the very least, I must cripple his cultivation before it happens! Who knows if he would take the lives of Bingbing, Silly Fox, or maybe the other foxes in the future!'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth to steel her resolve as she used her [Moonlight sh] and swiftly thrust her palm toward Elder Yang''s Dantian.
But unconsciously, Tang Li Xue stopped her palm again after it reached a few centimeters from Elder Yang''s Dantian.
''Damn it! Just what the hell is happening to me?! Is it really this hard for me to kill someone before? It should not be, right? For God''s sake, I already ughtered so many people in the second trial to enter Myriad Foxes Academy before!'' Tang Li Xue bit her pinkish lips in a dilemma as she started to sweat more profusely.
When Tang Li Xue''s mind shed intensely with her reasoning, the memories seal that Fake Dragon put on Tang Li Xue''s mind started to crack a bit without her realizing it.
Tang Li Xue suddenly felt a stinging headache in her mind, then one single scene that she should not even remember suddenly shed in her mind!
¡..
She was still in her [Common] grade, [Moon Fox] form.
Her stomach was bloated as she felt really full as shezilyid down on the ground inside the cave located in Moonlight Forest with her furry stomach facing upward.
There was some lingering grease of very delicious roasted meat in her mouth and lips.
She really wanted to have more of these roasted meats, but unfortunately, her stomach could not fit for even a mouthful of it anymore.
She felt really sleepy right now, but before she could close her eyes to take some nap¡ She suddenly heard a masculine voice from beside her.
"Xiao Bai, This Seat¡ I need to leave this ce and go back to my sect. I owe you my life but that is not my reason why I invite you¡ What I really want to say is that I really like you! Would you like to go back with me to my sect?" He said with a tone filled with gentleness and pleading.
Tang Li Xue could feel the sincerity and longing from his voice.
She nced toward the source of the masculine voice and realized that there was a handsome and young-looking man sat right beside her.
She stared right at that handsome man''s glittering eyes which filled with anxiousness and hope.
It really made her wanted to¡ reject his request so tantly on his face and see his despaired looks on that handsome face!
¡..
The scene in her mind was cut off until there, and Tang Li Xue could only remember that part.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes as the stinging headache in her mind hadpletely vanished too.
"This¡ What the hell is this? An illusion? Or maybe a dream?" Tang Li Xue murmured in confusion while frowned deeply.
"Xiao Bai¡ That man called me Xiao Bai? Don''t tell me¡" Tang Li Xue whispered to herself again while nced suspiciously at the nk-looking Elder Yang in front of her.
Tang Li Xue reluctantly reached her hands to Elder Yang''s face and grabbed at the silver mask that covered his face, then slowly removed it to see Elder Yang''s true appearance.
When Tang Li Xue saw Elder Yang''s handsome face that identical to the person in her memories, she gasped in shock and eximed softly: "Just as I thought¡ He is really the person in my dream just now!"
"Is it really just a dream? But why do I feel that scene is really familiar as if I have really experienced it before." Tang Li Xue said as she put her slender finger on her chin and started pondering everything more carefully.
Although she felt really hesitant about hurting Elder Yang right now because of that sudden memories, but she did not want to waste her own effort after she was going this far.
It was not easy to put Elder Yang into this situation after all.
Tang Li Xue could just activate her [Damage Transfer] skill to transfer all of her wounds into her perfect copy earlier, so she would not make Yaya and Little Loki worried about her before.
But Tang Li Xue decided to not do it and restrained herself until thest moment.
Anyway, she could still easily switch ce with her perfect copy using her [Swap] skill anytime, even if she got caught by Elder Yang previously and took that chance to reverse the situation like now.
As long as Elder Yang did not suspect or being wary of her perfect copy, then Tang Li Xue would definitely safe.
Yes, it was only IF Elder Yang did not suspect or being wary of her perfect copy that she could pull something like this.
In short, she would probably only had this one chance to kill or cripple Elder Yang!
If she decided to spare Elder Yang today, then there was a high chance that she would never have a chance like this anymore in the future since if Elder Yang regained his consciousness, he would immediately realize what had happened to him and might even starting to crazily hunt her and her perfect copy in rage.
When drowning in her hesitation and thoughts, Tang Li Xue failed to notice that the ring ne on her neck was kept shining with a dim azure light all this time.
This ring ne was given by Elder Yang''s mother to protect Elder Yang himself after all, so it automatically activated when Tang Li Xue used her [Eclipse of Desire] to trap Elder Yang''s soul into the illusion.
Tang Li Xue would never think that the ring ne on her neck was actually currently helping Elder Yang to get out from the effect of her [Eclipse of Desire] after she took it out from Elder Yang''s spatial ring until now.
While Tang Li Xue still hesitating on what to do, Elder Yang slowly but surely started to break out from the effect of Tang Li Xue''s [Eclipse of Desire] and regained his consciousness back.
Even one of Elder Yang''s fingers already began to twitch a bit right now!
Under the effect of Tang Li Xue''s [Eclipse of Desire], Elder Yang felt that he had a very long sweet dream.
In his dream, he reunited with her mother, and somehow his father was actually not dead.
The current cultivation of his father and mother was much higher than him, so both of them got really angry when he told them what had his grandfather and Mo Chonglin did to him.
After that, the three of them stormed together into Asura Demon Sect.
It did not take long for them to take control over Asura Demon Sect and banished his grandfather and Mo Chonglin out from the sect.
Elder Yang also found his Xiao Bai that actually still alive but detained by Mo Chonglin in the cage inside the Patriarch room.
Everything was so joyous after all of those were over.
His mother really spoiled him, and his father admired his amazing talent in martial arts.
Most of his time was used to apanying her mother, but sometimes he would have a sparring match with his father.
Elder Yang would also y with his Xiao Bai and teasing her if he had free time and nothing to do.
Until someday when Elder Yang apanying his mother, she suddenly smiled at him and asked: "Are you happy, right now?"
Elder Yang stared at his mother in confusion and replied with a gentle smile on his face: "Eh? Of course, I am happy right now. Because I have you, father, and Xiao Bai by my side now."
However, his mother''s expression turned sad as she said: "That is not what I mean¡ Sigh¡ I am really sorry, my child. I cannot apany you by your side all this time. This is my fault. You should have a happy life like this if not for me¡"
Elder Yang quickly interrupted his mother''s words and tried tofort her: "Mother¡ You do not need to think too much about it. Everything is all right now, isn''t it? That is what the most important."
His mother stared at Elder Yang and reached her hands to touch his handsome face: "I am really d that you have grown up into a proper man. I know that you are happy here, but here is not your ce. You must return immediately before it is toote."
"Mother? What do you mean by that?" Elder Yang frowned and asked in puzzlement.
His mother pushed him away while saying herst advice with a gentle smile and tearful expression on her face: "Zhiyun¡ You must not sad even if you do not have me and your father by your side anymore. But I am sure that you will be okay since you still have your Xiao Bai by your side. Please send my regard to that cute and sweet little girl. Be safe and always remember to treat her well!"
Chapter 392: Got Exposed!
Chapter 392: Got Exposed!
"What are you talking about, Mot..." Elder Yang did not understand what her mother was talking about, so he wanted to ask it, but his vision suddenly became blurry, and it turnedpletely dark after a few moments as if someone turned off the light all of a sudden in the middle of the night.
The eyshes of the nk-looking Elder Yang started fluttering slightly, but Tang Li Xue still did not realize it because Tang Li Xue was currently facing the hardest choice in her life.
It could be said that Tang Li Xue''s n was so perfect this time, since Tang Li Xue only need to use her [Swap] skill again to switch her location again with her perfect copy, and unsummon her perfect copy to escape from that ce after she killed Elder Yang.
Then she only needs to escape back to Myriad Foxes Academy with Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and that serial killer! What could those Nascent Soul Stage Elders do to her since she already disappeared from there when they realized that Elder Yang already died?!
"Guaaahhhh~!!! This is really going to drive me crazy! What the hell with this scene in my memories?! Do I really know him before?! Should I kill him or not?! Maybe I should only cripple his cultivation? But what if he is my forgotten close friend or my long-lost concubine or something?!" Tang Li Xue started to mumble with an anxious tone while holding her forehead.
In the end, Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and did what she always do if she could not make any decision to choose or do something... Postpone it until she could decide itter!
Yes, Tang Li Xue had decided to just let Elder Yang go for now...
But of course, Tang Li Xue would never let this Elder Yang go just like that without telling him about his debt of life to her so he could pay it back to her in the future... Uh, well... At least, he would not hold any grudge to her, right...?
Tang Li Xue took out her golden [Inscription Pen] from her system inventory and pricked Elder Yang''s finger with it to use his blood as ink.
Then Tang Li Xue used her golden [Inscription Pen] to write something on Elder Yang''s chest on the top of his white robe.
Tang Li Xue still had not realized that Elder Yang already regained his consciousness backpletely. The light of life had returned into his dead-looking eyes as if his soul already entered back into his body.
Elder Yang almost struck Tang Li Xue with all of his strength in reflex, but he immediately realized that Tang Li Xue did not mean any harm to him or he should be already dead by now.
Elder Yang only stared strangely at Tang Li Xue who was still busily writing on his chest right now.
"Okay... It is done!" Tang Li Xue murmured in satisfaction as she patted at Elder Yang''s chest to make sure that her handwriting already dried and would not fade.
When Tang Li Xue raised back her head, her topaz blue eyes directly met with Elder Yang''s eyes.
"Eh, why does he look a little bit different from before?" Tang Li Xue mumbled while frowned deeply.
Tang Li Xue reached out her hands toward Elder Yang''s face and pinched his cheek again while said: "Tsk, tsk, tsk... Such a handsome and masculine face... Although, you are still not as handsome as the male foxes from Myriad Foxes Academy, but you definitely look more manly than them.
"Unfortunately, your handsome look is still too much inferiorpared to my peerless beauty, so you certainly cannot be my main husband or Consort. But do not worry, at least I would reluctantly appoint you to be one of my Imperial Concubines in the future if you kneel and beg me." Tang Li Xue murmured as she giggled mischievously while kept ying with Elder Yang''s cheek.
Emperor''s harem usually consisted of 1 Queen/Empress, 3 Consorts, and 9 Imperial Concubines. Each Kingdom or Dynasties in history might have a different ranking system, but at least, this was the system in Tang Li Xue''s delusion.
Of course, she did not really n on building her own harem... At least for now...
Every man could have a dream of having many beautiful wives, so why women could not have a dream of having many handsome husbands, right?!
Elder Yang''s expression turned darker when Tang Li Xue squished his cheek, but he instantly widened his eyes in shock and disbelief after he heard Tang Li Xue''s words.
Err... I did not mean Tang Li Xue''s words about making him one of her Imperial Concubines but before that...
''Foxes? Myriad Foxes Academy? This is impossible... Don''t tell me that she is really...?!'' Elder Yang shouted in his mind as he swiftly reached his right hand toward Tang Li Xue''s covered face.
Elder Yang already grabbed at Tang Li Xue''s ck hood and veil tightly.
With her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue''s reaction speed was not less swift than Elder Yang as she quickly pulled away backward in reflex to make some distance between herself and Elder Yang.
Because of Tang Li Xue''s sudden forceful movement and Elder Yang''s tight grab, her ck hood and veil started to tear!
KKKRRREEEAAAAAKKK~!!!
Then right at this moment, under the dim moonlight inside the luxurious carriage, Tang Li Xue''s breathtaking beauty showed itself once again in front of Elder Yang''s eyes.
Her long and silky silver hair was fluttering because of her quick movement.
The smooth and delicate snow-like skin enhanced her matchless beautiful face as the moonlight shone upon her made her look unreal and ethereal like a Moon Goddess.
But what made Elder Yang halted his breath until his heart almost jumped out of his throat was Tang Li Xue''s pair of alluring topaz blue eyes and a pair of silver furred fox ears on the top of her head.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned ashen when she realized that Elder Yangpletely tore off her ck hood and veil since it means that her identity as a fox in human form was already exposed to Elder Yang!
"How could you..." Tang Li Xue murmured in shock and disbelief. She really could not believe that Elder Yang could free himself so easily from her [Eclipse of Desire].
Tang Li Xue knew that her [Eclipse of Desire] definitely could not affect Elder Yang for too long, but in her opinion, at least Elder Yang would probably need several hours or a few days to get out from that effect.
Of course, she still did not know that Elder Yang could wake up from the effect of her [Eclipse of Desire] so fast because of the power from the ring ne on her neck.
However, Elder Yang immediately approached Tang Li Xue before she could finish her words.
Elder Yang quickly held Tang Li Xue''s hand tightly and shouted with a tone mixed between happiness and anxiousness: "Are you... XIAO BAI?! YOU ARE REALLY XIAO BAI, AREN''T YOU?! SO YOU ARE REALLY NOT DIED YET!"
Tang Li Xue wanted to use her [Moonlight sh] skill in reflex to cut Elder Yang''s hands before he could touch her, but she decided to restrain that urge at thest moment because her [Extrasensory Perception] strangely did not sense any hostility or animositying from Elder Yang.
On the contrary, her [Extrasensory Perception] felt overflowing blissfulness, relief, and strong possessivenessing from Elder Yang.
Anyway, Tang Li Xue did not want Elder Yang to catch her off guard even when she did not detect any hostility from Elder Yang.
What if he decided to attack her when she lowered her guard in front of himter? So she decided to active her [Swap] skill and switched ce with her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue had decided to let her perfect copy negotiate with Elder Yang in her ce instead. It was probably the wisest decision she could think of at this moment.
Elder Yang became really disappointed when Tang Li Xue switched ces with her perfect copy since her tight ck clothes changed into a pink dress in an instant.
Elder Yang wanted to ask Tang Li Xue again if she was really his Xiao Bai, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already talked to him first: "You should be d that I decided to spare your life because of our rtionship until now. I do not need you to repay me back for it anymore. I just hope that you will not disclose my identity to others."
"You do not need to worry about it. I will never..." Elder Yang solemnly promised Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but Tang Li Xue''s next word made Elder Yang almost lost his mind in anger.
"After today, we will go back to our own separate path. Even if we meet again in the future, I hope you will act as if you did not recognize me. We will not know each other anymore from now on."? Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy mercilessly said to Elder Yang.
Elder Yang dropped his jaw and stunned in disbelief when he heard what Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy told him.
''How could she cut the ties between us just like that?! Xiao Bai... Are you really such a heartless and ungrateful fox?!'' Elder Yang thought in his mind.
"I will promise to not disclose your identity to any other people, but you must answer some of my questions first." Elder Yang said to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a serious expression.
Chapter 393: Hidden Scheme!
Chapter 393: Hidden Scheme!
"Three questions. I will only answer three questions from you, and I will not answer any question about something personal." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stated her terms to Elder Yang.
Elder Yang nodded his head without any hesitation and said with the solemn expression: "All right. First, are you my Xiao Bai or not?"
"I... do not know..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to deny it in an instant and said: ''I am not.''
But she started to feel unsure right now because of a scene with Elder Yang that suddenly appeared in her mind before.
Elder Yang frowned when he heard the reply from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and asked again: "You do not know...? What do you mean that you do not know?!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy bit her pink lips and pondered it for a few moments if she should answer it honestly or not before replied: "I am... still unsure about that. I mean, I am really sure that I had never met you before we met in the forest near Quanhai City."
"But I suddenly had a dream just now that you called me Xiao Bai, and you said something like owing me your life, then invited me to leave my forest and follow you back to your sect." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy calmly stated as she carefully looked at Elder Yang''s expression to judge his reaction.
Elder Yang''s eyes brightened a lot after he heard the words from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and murmured with a joyous tone: "I know it! You are really my Xiao Bai! At that time, I was..."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy raised her palm to stop Elder Yang from speaking and said with a firm tone: "Just so you know, I am one hundred percent sure that I never enter ore into Immortal Sword Sect before, so I am still quite sure that I have no connection to you at all before."
Elder Yang''s expression turned ashen once again when she heard the strong denial from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Actually, Elder Yang was already very sure that Tang Li Xue was his Xiao Bai right now from her familiar mesmerizing topaz blue eyes, silky smooth silver hair, and that ring ne in her possession, but he wanted to know the reason why Tang Li Xue kept denying it and act as if he was a stranger to her.
But now, Elder Yang finally knew the reason for it after he carefully deduced it from Tang Li Xue''s every word...
''So she did not remember anything about me at all other than that dream of hers...'' Elder Yang thought in his mind as his heart was feeling very painful as if it was pierced by thousands of needles.
Subconsciously, Elder Yang released his grip on Tang Li Xue''s hand and closed his eyes in sorrow.
The time was trickling slowly...
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had waited patiently for five minutes, but Elder Yang only lowered his head in silence as if he was mourning something.
Tang Li Xue did not understand nor did she really care about it, but she started to lose her patience from waiting for Elder Yang''s response, so she decided to say something to Elder Yang first: "You already asked two questions. You can ask one more question to me."
Elder Yang slowly raised his head again and opened his eyes, then stared silently at Tang Li Xue''s stunning face for a few moments.
Then he suddenly swung both of his palms!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy swiftly raised both of her hands too in reflex to defend herself.
CCLLLAAAAAAAAPP~!!!
But both of Elder Yang''s palms were only heavily pped his own cheeks until it turned really red and swollen.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her eyes and stared at Elder Yang with a weird gaze as if she was staring at a lunatic.
''I am such a coward! So what if she forgot everything about me! At least, she is still healthy and alive right now. As long as she is still alive, we can make as many memories as we want in the future. So why do I need to feel so down and disappointed now?!'' Elder Yang thought as he stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and smiled gently at her.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shuddered slightly under Elder Yang''s stare, and she impatiently said to him again: "I do not have much time anymore, so quickly ask your third question!"
Elder Yang stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a bright expression for a while before shook his head and replied: "There is no need for that. I have decided to save my third question forter."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her eyes in bafflement and asked for confirmation from Elder Yang: "Eh... what? Are you sure you want to save your third question forter? Are you really sure about it? Just so you know, there will be no guarantee that we will meet again in the future."
Elder Yangughed at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy after he heard her words and replied: "You do not need to worry about that. I am very sure that we will meet again in the future as long as you wear that ring ne."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned deeply when she heard Elder Yang''s words, and she started to suspect that Elder Yang put something to her ring ne like a tracker.
In fact, the real Tang Li Xue has already started carefully inspecting the ring ne she was wearing.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy red at Elder Yang to get some clues from his current expression, but Elder Yang was still smiling gently while stared back at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy without saying anything.
"Sigh¡ If you really do not want to ask any questions from me anymore, then I will go now. Do not forget your promise to never disclose my identity to others!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in relief and reminded Elder Yang again.
Just when the real Tang Li Xue wanted to unsummon her perfect copy from there, Elder Yang suddenly spoke¡
"Wait a minute!" Elder Yang stopped Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from leaving.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt annoyed and asked Elder Yang with an impatient tone: "What? Do you change your mind and want to ask me yourst question?"
"No, it is not about that. I believe you will not feel safe if it is only me that knew your secret. So I decided to tell you my secret too, to make you feel more secure." Elder Yang replied while chuckled at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Secret? What secret?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt curious and asked as her topaz blue eyes glittered brighter.
Elder Yang approached Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy until she could even feel his warm breathes on her sensitive ear and blushed slightly.
Elder Yang whispered to her right ear: "Actually, I am the former Patriarch of one of the Demonic Sects, Asura Demon Sect. I infiltrate into Immortal Sword Sect and join as one of their Honorary Elder only to hide from the Asura Demon Sect''s pursue. That was the reason why I need to wear this silver mask to hide my face from the public."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waspletely stunned by Elder Yang''s statement, and she dropped her jaw in shock.
"I also n to use Immortal Sword Sect''s support to exact my revenge to Asura Demon Sect sooner orter. How about that? If you disclose my secret to the public, not only I will be abandoned and chased out from Immortal Sword Sect, I will also get hunted by the Asura Demon Sect again." Elder Yang whispered again to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tilted her head cutely and stared at Elder Yang again to judge if he told any lie to her or not, but her [Extrasensory Perception] did not sense even a bit of lie from Elder Yang at all.
Elder Yang''s face and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy were really close until they could feel each other warm breathes now.
"Why are you telling me this?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a tone filled with suspicion.
Elder Yang replied with aforting tone: "As I said before, it is to make you feel more secure because I do not want you to worry all the time about me disclosing your secret. At least it will make you feel safer right now after I told you about my secret, right?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy slowly nodded her head in reluctance while kept staring suspiciously at Elder Yang.
Elder Yang smiled at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and took this chance while they were still so close to each other to gently kiss the forehead of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to dodge it, but it was already toote since Elder Yang''s lips already gently touched her forehead.
Tang Li Xue thought that she would feel disgusted and angry, but contrary to her expectation, she did not feel like that at all.
It was such a familiar and nostalgic feeling as if her forehead had already been kissed like this so many times by Elder Yang before.
Actually, Xiao Hei already kissed Tang Li Xue''s forehead so many times before when she was still in her fox form whenever he wanted to go sleep or went to work and left her alone in his room.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy vanished before Elder Yang even has time to see her reaction since the real Tang Li Xue decided to unsummon it from a few miles away from there.
Tang Li Xue decided to do so because she did not want Elder Yang to see her blushing expression.
Elder Yang closed his eyes and felt a bit lonely but he still smiled, then murmured to himself: "Xiao Bai... I am looking forward to our next meeting. I hope we can spend more time together in our next meeting."
It did not take long for Elder Yang''s luxurious carriage and the two Nascent Soul Elders that followed behind Elder Yang''s carriage to reach Imperial Pce after that.
¡..
¡
.
Ten minutes or so before Elder Yang''s luxurious carriage and the two Nascent Soul Elders arrived at the Imperial Pce, no one knew it, but Instructor Mei Lan already entered the Imperial Pce first before them, and she already approached the location of tonight''s banquet.
"AAAAAARRRGGGHHHH~!!!" The male deafening scream echoed from the location of tonight''s banquet.
Instructor Mei Lan hastened her step toward the location of tonight''s banquet, and then she saw that the ce was actually already littered with so many corpses.
There was no doubt that the people here already died since their bodies were already torn to pieces by something¡
Instructor Mei Lan found that there was still someone that stood at the location of tonight''s banquet.
"I know that you are still here, Zuo Hongzhuang." Instructor Mei Lan spoke to the person who stood in the middle of that mountain of corpses.
Chapter 394: Boundless Greed!
Chapter 394: Boundless Greed!
The woman in a majestic crimson phoenix dress slowly turned around and nced at Instructor Mei Lan, then leisurely said: "So you are here, Mei Lan. I know you will realize it sooner orter."
This woman was actually the Empress of the Feng Empire.
Currently, her right hand was choking the Emperor''s neck in her grasp and lifted him until his feet left the ground, while her left hand was holding the Emperor''s severed right hand that she forcefully tore from his shoulder earlier.
The Emperor felt suffocated, and his two arms had already been cut by the Empress. He already felt hopeless, but looking at Instructor Mei Lan came toward them made him see a glitter of hope again as he tried to speak while being choked: "H...help... me... Ple...Please..."
Instructor Mei Lan did not even take a nce at the blood-covered Emperor in the grasp of the Empress and sat on one of the nearby seats, then said: "We still have at least five minutes free time before the Elders of Immortal Sword Secte back here. You can tell me your story."
The Empressughed out loud after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words and said: "Is there any meaning for that? You would still forcefully drag me back into Myriad Foxes Academy, right?"
Instructor Mei Lan smiled at the Empress and replied with a leisure tone: "At least I may give you a hand in your revenge before forcefully drag you back into Myriad Foxes Academy if your story interests me."
The Empress smiled in irony as she canceled her illusion-type divine ability, and her disguise as the Empress of Feng Empire slowly faded away.
Zuo Hongzhuang finally decided to show her real appearance to Instructor Mei Lan and the Emperor.
Zuo Hongzhuang had long and straight pink hair. She tied in a twin-looped hairstyle decorated with a luxurious-looking jade hairpin.
Like the other vixens from Fox Race, Zuo Hongzhuang was also a top rare beautypared with human''s females. Even though her beauty still could not bepared to Tang Li Xue''s stunning beauty but she had her own advantage over Tang Li Xue, like Instructor Mei Lan.
If Instructor Mei Lan has a gentle and refined type of beauty that could slowly entice and indulge the opposite sex, then Zuo Hongzhuang was more like a delicate beauty that incited the pity and yearning of the opposite sex, then made them wants to spoil her more and more.
Right now, Zuo Hongzhuang''s crimson eyes red at the Emperor with great hatred and fury.
"Y¡ You are¡ Hong er?!" The Emperor stuttered, and his speaking tone was filled with shock and fear.
Zuo Hongzhuang started to speak with the Emperor, and her tone was still filled with hatred and anger, but her intention was actually to let Instructor Mei Lan know about everything.
After graduating from Myriad Foxes Academy, all the students could choose their future profession.
Mei Lan chose to be a teacher in the Education Department, but Zuo Hongzhuang chose to be a spy in the human world.
Zuo Hongzhuang infiltrated Feng Empire as a spy from Fox Race and took an identity as the distant rtive of an important official in the Feng Empire.
With her top beautiful appearance, she managed to attract many men from different backgrounds. But she also drew many jealous women, and some of them have very powerful backgrounds, like the rtive of Empress or Prime Minister.
They even started to deploy many dirty methods to harm her.
Of course, Zuo Hongzhuang did not afraid of them, but all of the men that tried to approach her before canceled their intention and took some distance from her instead because of that, and it certainly hindered her job to gather as much information as a spy from Fox Race.
At her most difficult time, only two people voluntarily helped her despite all the dangers and difficulties.
The first person was the Crown Prince of Feng Empire, Feng Long.
The second person was the Second Prince of Feng Empire and the current Feng Emperor that she tortured, Feng Tian.
Both of them have high positions and the candidate of the next Emperor of the Feng Empire.
Zuo Hongzhuang slowly fell in love with these two individuals because they kept approaching and helping her again and again.
It was actually a fatal ident since she never nned to fell in love with any humans, but the matter of feeling was really random andpletely unpredictable sometimes.
If Tang Li Xue heard Zuo Hongzhuang''s story too right now, she might find her story identical to some romance drama novels or series in her previous life.
Zuo Hongzhuang knew that she was not a human but a fox in human form, so Feng Long and Feng Tian might not ept her true identity.
Then she decided to give Feng Long and Feng Tian a chance by telling them that she would only marry the person who dared to abandon everything for her and live in seclusion with her.
Zuo Hongzhuang was ready to get disappointed by this. It would not be strange if both Feng Long and Feng Tian refused her offer and decided to leave her.
But the Crown Prince of Feng Empire, Feng Long, decided to abandon everything!
His wealth, his chance to be the next Emperor of Feng Empire, his authority, including his status as a Crown Prince... He gave it all to the second prince, Feng Tian, for the sake to be with Zuo Hongzhuang.
Zuo Hongzhuang felt moved by Feng Long''s sacrifice, and she decided to tell him her true identity as a fox in human form to Feng Long.
Just like what Zuo Hongzhuang had expected, if Feng Long even dared to abandon everything for her, then he would definitely ept her identity as a fox in human form too.
Their marriage was not approved by both of their families, but they decided to elope and seclude themselves from the others in the quiet mountain.
With Zuo Hongzhuang''s strength as Spirit Ranked Beast, the beast in this quiet mountain would never be able to harm them, and she could easily set an illusion barrier so no human would enter their ce.
Zuo Hongzhuang lived happily with Feng Long in the deepest part of that quiet mountain.
It should be a happy ending until there, but most humans always have boundless greed.
Even if Feng Long did not have that kind of greed, but it did not mean that his little brother, the second prince, Feng Tian, also like that.
After Feng Tian managed to be an Emperor of the Feng Empire by using dirty means to poisoned the previous Emperor, his royal father, his yearning to possess Zuo Hongzhuang became stronger day by day.
Feng Tian deliberately spread rumors about the previous Emperor''s fatal illness to bait his older brother, Feng Long, out of his seclusion.
Just like what he already predicted, Feng Long really came out of his seclusion to meet their dying father.
At that time, Zuo Hongzhuang was actually pregnant with their baby.
Feng Long fell under Feng Tian''s scheme and got caught, but unfortunately, Zuo Hongzhuang could not save him at that time because of her pregnancy.
The pregnancy period of Beast Race waspletely different from Human Race.
The pregnancy period would take longer than a year depending on the grade level of the beast. The higher the grade level of the beast and the richer the Vitality Energy contained inside their beast core, the longer it would take them to give birth to their babies.
They would also not be able to use their divine abilities in their pregnancy period.
Zuo Hongzhuang needed one year and four months to give birth to her baby.
In that one year and four months, her husband, Feng Long got cruelly tortured by Feng Tian, but Feng Fong still refused to tell any clue about the location of Zuo Hongzhuang until he died in gruesome death.
Because Feng Long knew that Zuo Hongzhuang was still pregnant, and she would not be able to defend herself if Feng Tian came to seize her at this time.
When Zuo Hongzhuang heard the news about Feng Long''s death, she fell into deep sorrow and despair.
She really wanted to avenge his death so badly, but after giving birth, she exhausted most essence in her beast core and greatly weakened.
This was another weakness of Beast Race though it only applied to females¡
If the female Beast Race gave birth to their cub or baby, they would enter a weakened period for many years!
Zuo Hongzhuang decided to patiently recover herself first and took care of her baby until her baby was strong enough to pass the trial to enter Myriad Foxes Academy while kept looking at the information and the people who were involved in her husband''s death.
That was the reason why Zuo Hongzhuang made her move to avenge her husband''s death just recently.
¡..
¡
.
"Wait a minute¡ There is something I still do not understand. If you want your child to enter Myriad Foxes Academy, then why do you bring him here to help you?" Instructor Mei Lan asked with a curious tone.
"¡..That child is my daughter. Sigh¡ she is just too stubborn and did not want to listen to me. She said she rather follow me to avenge her father''s death rather than joining Myriad Foxes Academy." Zuo Hongzhuang shook her head in disappointment.
"Oh, so she is a girl! Really... I guess she is just like her mother in that aspect... Then why do you deliberately leave some trace for us to track? You want us to bring your daughter back to Myriad Foxes Academy?" Instructor Mei Lan asked again.
"That is right. Please, I want you to bring her back to Myriad Foxes Academy. At least, she would be safe there... and my father might even dote on her very much..." Zuo Hongzhuang replied to Instructor Mei Lan with a half-begging tone.
"Then what about you?" Instructor Mei Lan asked for the third time while stood from her seat.
Zuo Hongzhuang frowned deeply and replied in annoyance: "I still have some unfinished business to take care of. I wille back to Myriad Foxes Academyter."
"What a big Liar~! You must be too ashamed toe back to Myriad Foxes Academy and meet with your parents, right? You have too much pride and too stubborn to do that, so you n to sacrifice yourself here and try to kill some Elders of Immortal Sword Sect. You even go so far as to push your daughter to us rather than bring her back yourself to Myriad Foxes Academy." Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and spoke with a mocking tone.
Zuo Hongzhuang shook her head and exined: "I hand her over to you because I trust you, Mei Lan. I am sure that you can bring her back to Myriad Foxes Academy without my help."
"No matter what you say, I will still drag you back to Myriad Foxes Academy with me. Even if I must forcefully break your four limbs, pull out all your tails, or cripple you first before you yield to me." Instructor Mei Lan said with an excited smile on her face as she cracked her knuckles.
Chapter 395: Zuo Hongzhuangs Insanity!
Chapter 395: Zuo Hongzhuang''s Insanity!
Zuo Hongzhuang giggled and said: "Do you really think that you can still win against me right now? I am a Spirit Rank Beast, and you are only a peak Rank Beast Lord."
Instructor Mei Lan could evolve into a ''fake'' Spirit Rank Beast like Zuo Hongzhuang since long ago before Zuo Hongzhuang even evolved into a ''fake'' Spirit Rank Beast.
But Instructor Mei Lan chose not to do it since she aimed to evolve into a ''true'' Spirit Rank Beast like her parents.
Meanwhile, Zuo Hongzhuang knew that she did not have the talent as high as Instructor Mei Lan, so she chose to evolve into a ''fake'' Spirit Rank Beast.
Although Zuo Hongzhuang felt inferior to Instructor Mei Lan, but at least for now, Zuo Hongzhuang knew that she was more powerful than Instructor Mei Lan.
However, Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and started to exin her deduction: "If you really have your full strength as a Spirit Rank Beast, you do not need to be so afraid of some Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators."
"From your story, you had been alone all this time after your husband died, so you must not have received or consumed any medicines to recover your strength after you give birth to your child." Instructor Mei Lan kept speaking as she slowly approached Zuo Hongzhuang.
"Without those recovery medicines, it would take too long for you to recover your strength to the peak, so I presume your current strength is not even reached fifty percent of your peak strength." After Instructor Mei Lan finished her words, she already arrived right in front of Zuo Hongzhuang.
Zuo Hongzhuang also decided to stop ying around with her prey and tightened her grip on the Emperor''s neck.
"Wa... Wait... a..." The Emperor could also feel it, so he immediately tried to stall for more time.
But? Zuo Hongzhuang obviously would not listen to him and...
CRAAAAACCCKKK~!!!
She broke the Emperor''s neck, then cut his head off mercilessly until the head fell onto the ground and the blood spurting profusely from its neck.
"You already killed the mastermind of your husband''s death, and you alreadypleted your revenge. Why you cannot just follow me and return to Myriad Foxes Academy like a good girl?" Instructor Mei Lan asked Zuo Hongzhuang with a curious tone.
Zuo Hongzhuang snickered coldly and replied: "Do you mean these useless people or this puppet emperor? All of them are nothing more than receable dolls for the Immortal Sword Sect."
"They are nothing more than a group of clown impersonating as influential people under the order of the Immortal Sword Sect. ying them all will only worsen the Immortal Sword Sect''s reputation. That is all." Zuo Hongzhuang gritted her teeth in intense hatred and anger.
"Then what did you n to do now? Destroying Immortal Sword Sect alone? That is impossible, right? You might not even be able to dent their front gate with your current strength." Instructor Mei Lan mocked Zuo Hongzhuang and sneered at her.
Zuo Hongzhuang did not mind Instructor Mei Lan''s mocking and slowly replied with a cold chilling smile on her face: "Immortal Sword Sect sent a super genius here to catch me, you know about that too, right? Moreover, he is rumored to be a future Patriarch of the Immortal Sword Sect. I wonder what will happen if I kill him in front of all of his guardian elders."
Instructor Mei Lan squinted her eyes and inhaled a deep breath while eximed in surprise: "So you are nning to trade your life to kill him?! You are¡ insane! But that is the reason why I have to drag you back to Myriad Foxes Academy more with me."
After she ended her words, Instructor Mei Lan suddenly thrust her palm toward Zuo Hongzhuang!
[Demonic Tune] plus [Heavenly Sound]¡ [Fatal Vibration Strike]: 3rd echo!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
This was definitely one of Instructor Mei Lan''s most powerful killing blows, and it was certainly more than capable of ying Zuo Hongzhuang in one strike if it hit her.
Moreover, Instructor Mei Lan initiated a sneak attack when Zuo Hongzhuang had not prepared herself yet.
Instructor Mei Lan''s palm struck Zuo Hongzhuang right on the center of her chest, and Zuo Hongzhuang''s body was crushed into a bloody pulp under Instructor Mei Lan''s [Fatal Vibration Strike].
PPPUUUUUUUUUUUFFFF~!!!
The blood from the crushed body was spurting everywhere as if there was blood rain from the sky.
If Tang Li Xue and the others were here, they would already shout in panic and use Instructor Mei Lan of murdering their mission target, but Instructor Mei Lan did not panic at all. On the contrary, she was very calm right now.
Her current opponent, Zuo Hongzhuang, was a veteran inspector just like her, so Instructor Mei Lan believed it was impossible for her to kill Zuo Hongzhuang so easily in one move.
Her current opponent was too strong and too smart for that to happen. So much so that she did not even have 100 percent confidence in defeating her.
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan had predicted, the crushed dead body turned out to be the headless body of the already dead emperor.
''Tsk, what an annoying divine ability?! Fortunately, there are no Little Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox here. So I can use my strength to its fullest potential right now without bringing any danger to them.'' Instructor Mei Lan thought as she made a snapping fingers motion.
[Demonic Tune] plus [Heavenly Sound]¡ Wave st!
CCLLAAAAAAAAAAACCKKK~!!!
With her divine abilities, Instructor Mei Lan boosted the sound volume of her fingers snap by many times and added the destructive vibration on the top of it.
An extremely loud and destructive sound wave sted everything nearby Instructor Mei Lan into dust.
The corpses, seats, tables, grasses, and all kinds of decorations were sted away by Instructor Mei Lan''s finger snap.
Zuo Hongzhuang gasped in shock when she saw Instructor Mei Lan''s strength.
She already knew about Instructor Mei Lan''s divine abilities and already took some distance from Instructor Mei Lan.
But her eardrums were still painful ringing despite she already covered it with her both of her palms beforehand.
''What violent and powerful divine abilities?! She has already grown so much more powerful than before I left Myriad Foxes Academy! Sigh... Meanwhile, I am only getting much weaker than before... I am really so pathetic¡'' Zuo Hongzhuang thought in surprise and sighed in resignation at Instructor Mei Lan''s growth.
"It is all right if you want to y hide and seek with me, then I will just tten this whole area to find you!" Instructor Mei Lan said as she giggled mischievously and took a stance to p her hands.
''Oh, no! This looks bad! I must retreat farther from here!'' Zuo Hongzhuang thought while she swiftly turned around and ran away from there.
[Demonic Tune] plus [Heavenly Sound]¡ Catastrophe!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
When Instructor Mei Lan pped her hands, the ground below her feet and all nearby buildings started to copse.
The vibration power contained in Instructor Mei Lan''s apuse was several times more destructive than before, so it no longer affected only the small things like the grasses or seats, but something much bigger than it too.
It even managed to create a strong earthquake that made the ground and buildings crumbled away!
After the effect of Instructor Mei Lan''s attack was over, the banquet area already turned into a deste ce without any buildings or things left. Even the ground below her feet was filled with deep cracks, and there were deep holes everywhere.
"Mei Lan, are you crazy?! Do you really want to destroy the entire Imperial Pce and kill me here?!" Zuo Hongzhuang screamed to Instructor Mei Lan in anger.
Instructor Mei Lanughed out loud and said: "That is right, so you better give up and follow me back to Myriad Foxes Academy now before I really identally kill you."
Zuo Hongzhuang sighed again and replied: "I actually do not want to fight with you seriously but¡ sigh¡ it seems I really have no choice now."
Illusion type Divine ability: [Rippling Reflection]¡ [Inverted Reality]!
"Fall under the reality that I construct, Mei Lan¡" Zuo Hongzhuang murmured to Instructor Mei Lan.
¡..
When Instructor Mei Lan opened her eyes, she already went back to a few minutes ago where she still sat on the nearby seat and watched at Zuo Hongzhuang choked at the Emperor''s neck.
"What is this? An illusion? Did I already fall under Zuo Hongzhuang''s illusion?" Instructor Mei Lan whispered while frowned deeply.
Instructor Mei Lan did not think too much about it and jumped from her seat, then dashed toward Zuo Hongzhuang and gave her a kick!
BANG~!!!
Zuo Hongzhuang was thrown off several meters away because of Instructor Mei Lan''s powerful kick, but Instructor Mei Lan did not n to end it just like that.
[Demonic Tune] variation move: [Grinding Strike]!
Instructor Mei Lan threw her fist right toward Zuo Hongzhuang''s face without any mercy!
PPPUUUUUUUUUUUFFFF~!!!
Instructor Mei Lan''s fistnded right at Zuo Hongzhuang''s face and made Zuo Hongzhuang''s head exploded like a watermelon.
All of Instructor Mei Lan''s senses¡ from her sense of touch of hitting Zuo Hongzhuang''s head, the pungent smell of blood in her nose, everything she felt was not an illusion.
She even activated her [Heavenly Sound] detection move: [Sonar], and it sensed that everything that happened was real.
But after a few moments when she opened her eyes again¡
She already went back again to a few minutes ago when she still sat on the nearby seat and watched at Zuo Hongzhuang choked the Emperor''s neck.
"What kind of illusion is this?! It is so powerful!" Instructor Mei Lan eximed in shock and disbelief.
Chapter 396: Instructor Mei Lan VS Zuo Hongzhuang!
Chapter 396: Instructor Mei Lan VS Zuo Hongzhuang!
Instructor Mei Lan put her slender finger on her chin and thinking a way to break out of Zuo Hongzhuang''s illusion for a few moments.
"No good¡ I cannot think of any easy way out from this illusion. It seems I can only use the hard way to break out from it.? Oh well, I like the hard way more anyway." Instructor Mei Lan mumbled, then she softly chuckled as she charged toward Zuo Hongzhuang and attacked her again.
[Demonic Tune] variation move: [Grinding Strike]!
BAAAAAANG¡ BOOOOM¡ PPPUUUUUFFF¡
Even if the reality turned back over and over again, Instructor Mei Lan kept charging toward Zuo Hongzhuang, then she killed Zuo Hongzhuang again and again in this illusion for more than thirty times.
Zuo Hongzhuang shook her head and advised Instructor Mei Lan before she got killed again: "Mei Lan, all of your effort is only futile. You will never be able to get out from my [Inverted Reality] with force. You should just wait patiently here until my illusion is run out."
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at Zuo Hongzhuang''s statement and replied with a leisure tone: "You mean I will automatically get released from this illusion once you have died, so I should just wait patiently for that to happen, right? Nope! No way! That is not going to happen."
Zuo Hongzhuang frowned in annoyance and retorted in a chilling tone: "Then I did like to see how long you will be able to keep up doing that!"
"Oh, you do not need to worry about that. I was only testing the waters before... and to vent out some of my anger to your illusion. I must admit that it really makes me a lot relieved. As for the way to break out from your illusion, I already managed to find it a while ago." Instructor Mei Lan blurted out with a teasing smile on her face.
"That is impossible! Stop bluffing! There is no way you can break out from my [Inverted Reality] without any external help!" Zuo Hongzhuang spontaneously shouted in disbelief and anger.
"This [Inverted Reality] of yours is the illusion made to trap my conscious inside it, right? Then what will happen if there is no ''me'' in this [Inverted Reality] of yours?" Instructor Mei Lan gave a hint while kept smiling at Zuo Hongzhuang.
Zuo Hongzhuang widened her eyes and eximed in a surprised tone: "Do not tell me that you nned to¡"
Instructor Mei Lan immediately interrupted Zuo Hongzhuang''s words and said whileughing: "Correct! But there is no reward for you..."
Instructor Mei Lan raised her smooth right palm and used her [Grinding Strike] again. However, this time her target was not Zuo Hongzhuang but her own left chest.
PPPUUUUFFFF~!!!
Instructor Mei Lan''s right palm pierced deep into her own left chest, and her blood spurting out profusely drenched the ground below her feet with her own blood.
Although Instructor Mei Lan already prepared herself for this, but the unbelievable pain she felt right now was so real that it made her almost fall onto her knees and scream out loud.
However, Instructor Mei Lan chose to grit her teeth and silently withstood the unbelievable pain as her consciousness turned blurry and the scene in front of her turned dark.
¡..
¡
.
The next moment when Instructor Mei Lan opened her eyes, she already broke out from Zuo Hongzhuang''s [Inverted Reality] and returned to the real reality.
"Pfffft¡ Cough¡ Cough¡ Cough¡" Zuo Hongzhuang was assaulted by the violent bacsh when Instructor Mei Lan managed to break out from her [Inverted Reality] and coughed out several mouthfuls of blood.
Even Instructor Mei Lan did not get spared by the violent bacsh and also coughed out several mouthfuls of blood from her mouth.
Actually, there were only two ways to break out of Zuo Hongzhuang''s [Inverted Reality].
The first way was like what Zuo Hongzhuang had told Instructor Mei Lan before. It was to have external help from other people or treasure such as Tang Li Xue''s ring ne.
Instructor Mei Lan obviously did not have anyone or any treasure to help her.
The second way was to have stronger consciousness than the person, who cast the [Inverted Reality], Zuo Hongzhuang herself¡ or in Tang Li Xue''snguage, it means Instructor Mei Lan need to have a higher Spirit stat than Zuo Hongzhuang, to be able to break out forcefully from her illusion.
Obviously, Instructor Mei Lan''s Spirit stat could not be higher than Zuo Hongzhuang since Zuo Hongzhuang was already in Spirit Beast Rank, while Instructor Mei Lan was only at the peak of Beast Lord Rank.
That was the reason why Zuo Hongzhuang was so confident that Instructor Mei Lan would never be able to break out from her [Inverted Reality].
What Instructor Mei Lan had done just now was the same as forcefully self-destructing herself to terminate Zuo Hongzhuang''s illusion.
It was nothing more than a forceful suicidal move, just like how the prisoner in the jail rammed his head heavily to the steel bars to get out from there.
Even Zuo Hongzhuang never thought that Instructor Mei Lan would use this way to get out from her illusion, thus resulted in both herself and Instructor Mei Lan inflicted by heavy injuries right now.
Both Zuo Hongzhuang and Instructor Mei Lan staggered, and they would already faint if not for their ego and pride that keep them awake.
Instructor Mei Lan quickly took out the [Talisman Of Regeneration +3] that Tang Li Xue gave to her before from her space pouch and used it on herself.
Instructor Mei Lan''s internal injuries were actually much heavier than Zuo Hongzhuang, but it could still be treated with [Talisman Of Regeneration +3] since she was still only at the peak of Beast Lord Rank.
Meanwhile, it was much harder for Zuo Hongzhuang to treat her own injuries because any basic talisman like this [Talisman Of Regeneration] will not work on Spirit Beast Rank.
"You are really insane!" Zuo Hongzhuang said as she gnashed her teeth in anger.
Instructor Mei Lanughed as she wiped the blood on her mouth and replied: "No, you are the one that insane. If you just follow me back obediently to Myriad Foxes Academy, all of these will not happen, and I did not need to do such a suicidal move!"
"Nonsense! Mei Lan, you better return to Myriad Foxes Academy right now, or I will not hold myself back anymore. You should understand it too, right? If I did not set such a loophole in my [Inverted Reality], you would already be dead right now!" Zuo Hongzhuang retorted in dejection.
"Don''t get me wrong. I admit that it is my mistake for letting you cast your illusion onto me. It seems I was looking down on you too much because I still treated you as a sickly fox before. But it will never happen again from now on." Instructor Mei Lan sneered while eximed to Zuo Hongzhuang.
None of them wanted to give in to others, so there was only one way to decide it. Fight again until one of them admitted their defeat!
Just like what Instructor Mei Lan had said just now, she really did not n to let Zuo Hongzhuang cast another illusion onto her this time.
[Vibration Construct]!
[Vibration Wires]!
Everything Instructor Mei Lan created using her [Vibration Construct] was transparent, and this time she used her [Vibration Construct] to create many thin wires at once!
These thin invisible wires were really hard to detect and avoided. The result could be easily be imagined if someone bound by these thin invisible wires. They would definitely look like a bug that got caught in the spider web.
Moreover, these thin invisible wires were actually very sharp and kept vibrating violently!
It could even easily cut any steel like tofu!
However, Zuo Hongzhuang already had her own way to avoid getting caught by these invisible thin wires.
Illusion type Divine ability: [Rippling Reflection]¡ [Phantom Mirages]!
Zuo Hongzhuang''s figure suddenly split into four, then from four into eight, from eight to sixteen, and so on.
"What is that?! It is almost the same as Huang Boy''s divine ability, [Shadow Clone]. But it should be impossible for Zuo Hongzhuang to have that kind of divine ability. The principle behind it should be different. She must have used her Illusion type divine ability to create many false reflections of herself!" Instructor Mei Lan calmly deduced.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and dered: "But no matter how good your false reflections are, the real you would still never be able to escape from my [Vibration Wires]!"
After finished her words, Instructor Mei Lan controlled some of the [Vibration Wires] to bind all of Zuo Hongzhuang''s reflections since Instructor Mei Lan was very sure that the real Zuo Hongzhuang should be still among them.
But on the contrary to Instructor Mei Lan''s expectation, all of her [Vibration Wires] passed through all of Zuo Hongzhuang''s reflections as if all of them were only illusions made by Zuo Hongzhuang.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply as her expression turned more solemn now.
"With my [Phantom Mirages], I will be the phantom, and the phantom is me. All of my mirages are me, yet all of them are my illusion, thus I am the illusion itself!" Zuo Hongzhuang slowly murmured to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan pondered Zuo Hongzhuang''s words carefully and thought of a way to break her illusion skill again, but Zuo Hongzhuang would never give Instructor Mei Lan any free time to think anymore and let all of her [Phantom Mirages] charged toward Instructor Mei Lan at once.
Instructor Mei Lan controlled her [Vibration Wires] to stop all of Zuo Hongzhuang''s [Phantom Mirages] from approaching her, but all of those [Phantom Mirages] easily passed through the [Vibration Wires] as if they were a group of ghosts that could not be touched by any material things.
Chapter 397: 4th Echo!
Chapter 397: 4th Echo!
''I wonder why all of these Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms are trying to approach me? Are they only trying to hit me from close range? But I clearly have more advantage in close-range battle... I bet they can do something more than that... Something much dangerous than just hitting me from close range. Anyway, it would be much safer to never let them approach me at all.'' Instructor Mei Lan thought in her mind.
Instructor Mei Lan activated both of her divine abilities, [Demonic Tune] and [Heavenly Sound], then snapped her fingers again.
[Wave st]!
CCLLAAAAAAAAAAACCKKK~!!!
The loud sound of finger snap and its destructive vibration started to spread out around Instructor Mei Lan, destroying everything it touched to dust.
But unfortunately, Instructor Mei Lan''s [Wave st] did not affect any of Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms at all as they kept getting closer and closer to Instructor Mei Lan.
"What a troublesome skill is that?!" Instructor Mei Lan groaned.
Just as Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms almost reached her, Instructor Mei Lan snapped her fingers again, but she used apletely different skill than before this time.
[Sonic Blink]!
Instructor Mei Lan''s figure vanished in that instant, and she appeared more than ten meters from the ce where she stood before.
Instructor Mei Lan used this skill before when she had a sparring match against Tang Li Xue in [War Goddess Mode].
At that time, Tang Li Xue thought that Instructor Mei Lan teleported every time she snapped her fingers, but it was actually not true.
Instructor Mei Lan only cleverly used her sound-based divine abilities to push herself with unbelievable speed.
It was almost the same as how Tang Li Xue used her [Sun Dragon sh] to push herself forward, but Instructor Mei Lan''s [Sonic Blink] was far much faster than that until anyone could not see her movement at all, but unfortunately, the range of her movement was limited when using [Sonic Blink].
All of Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms did not give up that easily, and they were still relentlessly chasing after Instructor Mei Lan.
Since her sound-based attack was failed to hit any of Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms, Instructor Mei Lan immediately decided to try something new.
Her [Vibration Wires] started to swipe against each other intensely until the me was sparking and burn the [Vibration Wires].
The [Vibration Wires]pletely turned into me wires, then all of the me wires started to intertwine with each other and became a thick me whip in an instant.
"Let''s see if this me whip of mine can touch you or not!" Instructor Mei Lan said as she controlled the thick me whip and whipped it toward Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms.
BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡
The thick me whip was not only managed to hurt Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms, but it even burned them to nothingness.
"It works! So their weakness is really the fire!" Instructor Mei Lan murmured as her eyes brightened slightly.
Instructor Mei Lan moved her me whip faster and whipped it around to clean all of Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms in her sight.
BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡
All of Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms had been cleaned by her me whip, but Instructor Mei Lan failed to find the real Zuo Hongzhuang among them.
"It seems that distraction is really working... I want to see if you really can get out from my [Inverted Reality] for the second time now!" Zuo Hongzhuang dered to Instructor Mei Lan.
"I will not let you cast that skill!" Instructor Mei Lan replied as she snapped her fingers again and used her [Sonic Blink] to appear right in front of Zuo Hongzhuang.
[Demonic Tune] variation move: [Grinding Strike]!
But when Instructor Mei Lan''s palm swiftly struck at Zuo Hongzhuang''s body, her palm was actually passed through Zuo Hongzhuang''s body!
Zuo Hongzhuangughed as her phantom body passed through Instructor Mei Lan''s body and murmured: "In the end, you still jump into my trap by own will¡"
When Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantom body passed through Instructor Mei Lan''s body, Instructor Mei Lan felt intense pain all over her body as if her soul was torn off from her body.
Instructor Mei Lan gritted her teeth to withstood the unbearable pain as she limply fell onto her knees. Even her me whip crumbled apart because her concentration got disturbed.
"Cough¡ cough¡ cough¡" Instructor Mei Lan coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood again as her internal wounds got worsened.
"Mei Lan, why don''t you just give up and go back to Myriad Foxes Academy now?" Zuo Hongzhuang advised Instructor Mei Lan once again.
Instructor Mei Lan wiped the blood on her mouth with her sleeve and replied: "Why don''t you just give up ande with me back to Myriad Foxes Academy now?"
Zuo Hongzhuang shook her head as her pink furred fox ears twitched in annoyance, and she blurted out: "You are so stubborn!"
Instructor Mei Lan sighed and said: "If I try to fight against you in close range battle, you will hit me with your [Phantom Mirages], but if I keep my distance from you and attack from afar, then you will trap me with your [Inverted Reality]. Your skill is truly troublesome to deal with..."
"You already know that, and yet why do you still..." Zuo Hongzhuang angrily shouted, but Instructor Mei Lan immediately cut her words halfway.
"It seems we are almost running out of time, so I will get more serious from now on." Instructor Mei Lan spoke with a leisure tone as she stood up again and took out another [Talisman of Regeneration +3], then used it again on herself.
"Stop talking nonsense. If you really have stronger power, then why do you need to wait until now to use it?!" Zuo Hongzhuang chided Instructor Mei Lan harshly.
"You already knew that there are many levels of intensity in elementalpression. The more amount of elemental energy wepressed using our divine ability, the more powerful it will be. Although, we would also need intense concentration and greater control to do it." Instructor Mei Lan slowly exined.
Zuo Hongzhuang frowned deeply and wondered: "Why are you telling me this now?"
Instructor Mei Lan ignored Zuo Hongzhuang''s question and continued: "In my case, I measured the degree of my sound-based divine abilities''pression with [Echo]."
"I usually used [1st Echo] to spar with my students."
"I mostly used [2st Echo] to face my most foes."
"But when fighting against powerful opponents such as against you just now or those Nascent Soul Stage elders before, I pushed myself to use [3rd Echo]."
"The question is... do you know how many levels of [Echo] I can use?"
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled as she concluded her exnation and asked back at Zuo Hongzhuang.
"So you are saying that you can increase your strength by one level higher than now? But all of those are futile if you cannot even touch me in my [Phantom Mirages]!" Zuo Hongzhuang sneered at Instructor Mei Lan as she activated her [Phantom Mirages] again.
Zuo Hongzhuang''s figure split again into many phantoms identical to herself. Even Instructor Mei Lan could not sense which one of them was real or fake.
All of Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms sprinted swiftly toward Instructor Mei Lan again just like before.
Instructor Mei Lan took a deep breath and muttered with a confident smile on her face: "Actually, I canpress my divine abilities and push it until [5th Echo], but [4th Echo] should be more than enough to deal with the weakened you."
"Nonsense! You are just trying to stall for more time and wait for your reinforcement to arrive. But you should already know that those are futile since all of your inexperienced students would never be able to defeat me!" one of Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms yelled at Instructor Mei Lan.
Just when all of Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms almost touched Instructor Mei Lan, Instructor Mei Lan suddenly jumped upward really high while stretched both of her hands toward the night sky.
"[Demonic Tune] plus [Heavenly Sound]¡ [4th Echo]... [Banishment Tremor]!" Instructor Mei Lan murmured as she forcefully swung both of her hands downward toward Zuo Hongzhuang''s phantoms on the ground.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The earth-shattering explosion much greater than any previous one was happening right below Instructor Mei Lan. But the range of earth-shattering explosion was actually really limited since Instructor Mei Lan only focused on the area below her right now.
KREEEAAAKK...
The clothes fabric that covered both of Instructor Mei Lan''s hands was tearing to pieces.
CRACK... CRACK... CRACK...
"Guh!!!" Instructor Mei Lan groaned in pain as all of the bones at both of her hands started to shatter to pieces and bent out of shape under the immense powerful pressure of her [4th Echo] sound and vibrationpression.
This was the reason why Instructor Mei Lan never used the sound and vibrationpression beyond [3rd Echo] so casually.
It was because she would get badly injured too, every time she used the [4th Echo]!
As for the [5th Echo], it was probably a suicidal move, something that would probably make her die together with her enemies.
There was no doubt that Instructor Mei Lan was already very very powerful right now, and she surpassed most of other Beast Lord rank or [Rare] grade beast. But unfortunately, her ability was limited by her own physique.
In Tang Li Xue''s term, Instructor Mei Lan''s strength stat was too high, but her Toughness stat has already reached the limit and could no longer support her own strength.
Actually, the solution for this was quite simple. Instructor Mei Lan only needs to evolve further and enter the Spirit Beast Rank like Zuo Hongzhuang. But she obviously did not want that and decided to wait patiently for the right opportunity to evolve into a ''true'' Spirit Beast Rank like her parents.
PPPUUUUFFF~!!!
Instructor Mei Lan spurted a few mouthfuls of blood from her mouth, and the explosion shockwave pushed her higher toward the sky. She was drifting in the mid-air like a boat in the middle of the storm.
Chapter 398: Waiting for Instructor Mei Lan!
Chapter 398: Waiting for Instructor Mei Lan!
Suddenly, a silhouette was flying out from Instructor Mei Lan''s space pouch that she hung on her neck.
It was actually Instructor Mei Lan''s green-colored Wind Riding Bird.
It seems the green-colored Wind Riding Bird sensed that Instructor Mei Lan called for it and swiftly flew out from her space pouch.
"Daoqie (Cabbage), I can only count on you now. Please do not forget to bring that Zuo Hongzhuang too before you fly out from this city..." Instructor Mei Lan weakly muttered before she fell unconscious.
The green-colored Wind Riding Bird quickly pped its wings and swiftly caught the unconscious Instructor Mei Lan before she fell onto the ground, then threw her onto its back.
Then the green-colored Wind Riding Bird proceed to look for Zuo Hongzhuang ording to Instructor Mei Lan''s order, but it did not know where to began when it saw therge and deep hole on the ground below it.
It took the green-colored Wind Riding Bird a while to find the fainted Zuo Hongzhuang inside therge and deep hole.
Instructor Mei Lan was currently in aa because of her severe injuries, but Zuo Hongzhuang''s condition seems even worse than Instructor Mei Lan''s condition.
The green-colored Wind Riding Bird put down the fainted Instructor Mei Lan and used its beak to search for something in Instructor Mei Lan''s space pouch.
The green-colored Wind Riding Bird took out a stack of [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from Instructor Mei Lan''s space pouch with its beak, then used those [Talisman of Regeneration +3] on Zuo Hongzhuang and Instructor Mei Lan.
After making sure that the condition of Zuo Hongzhuang and Instructor Mei Lan became a bit better, the green-colored Wind Riding Bird threw both of them onto its back and pped its wings rapidly to soar onto the sky, then flew swiftly out of the Imperial Pce as fast as possible.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Elder Yang had already gotten off from his carriage, and two Nascent Soul Stage elders followed closely behind him.
He also already wore back the silver mask to cover his face.
All of them entered the Imperial Pce, and many people from Imperial Pce hastily notified him about the earth-shattering battle that happened in Imperial Garden more than ten minutes ago.
But the Emperor already released a decree to not let anyone approach Imperial Garden until further notice this morning, so the Imperial Guards did not dare to check it.
Some gatekeepers also reported to Elder Yang that they had spotted a big green bird flew out from the east gate of Imperial Garden just now.
"Elder Yang, what should we do? Should we just split up to check it?" One of the Nascent Soul Stage elders asked for Elder Yang''s opinion with a grim expression.
Elder Yang pondered for a while before replied: "Yes, we need to split up here. You two will go together to check the Imperial Garden. Remember always to be really careful! I do not know why they fight against each other, but I bet the two people fighting in Imperial Garden must be very powerful from how the Imperial Guards described the sound and explosion from their battle."
The other Nascent Soul Stage elder frowned and muttered with a tone filled with worry: "But... does it mean Elder Yang will chase after that big green bird alone? This is not good. What if you meet with the serial killer halfway? Our first priority is to protect your life so how could we let you wander alone without any protection?!"
"That is right. What if one of us stays with Elder Yang and chase after that big green bird together, while the other check the Imperial Garden alone?" The first Nascent Soul Stage elder suggested.
Elder Yang shook his head and "No, that will not do. The enemies in the Imperial Garden clearly much stronger, so you two must check it together. You all do not need to worry about me. I am not a weakling. If I really cannot win against the serial killer, at least I am quite sure that I can escape unscathed from him."
"This..." The two Nascent Soul Stage elders looked toward each other in hesitation and tried to persuade Elder Yang several more times again, but Elder Yang rejected their suggestion and remained firm to his decision.
The two Nascent Soul Stage elders felt helpless, and they could only follow Elder Yang''s decision, but they still reminded Elder Yang to use his signal re if he fell into any dangerter.
Elder Yang and the two Nascent Soul Stage elders knew that they did not have much time, so they immediately bid their farewell and flew using their flying swords to their own destination ce.
''From the information I get, it seems the battle in Imperial Pce is just finished, and the survivor in that battle mounted on the green bird to escape out from Tang Feng City.'' Elder Yang easily deduced everything in his mind.
''I will check it first. If that person is from Fox Race, it means that person is Xiao Bai''s friend, so I will let it go. But if that person is not from Fox Race...'' Elder Yang''s eyes glinted coldly after he decided what he would do.
That was also the reason why Elder Yang did not let any of the two Nascent Soul Stage elders followed him just now.
Because he surely could not spare anyone or let them go like that in front of the Nascent Soul Stage elder''s eyes.
It did not take long for Elder Yang to catch up with Instructor Mei Lan''s green Wind Riding Bird.
It only took Elder Yang several minutes with his flying sword since the green Wind Riding Bird could not fly too fast with two severely injured foxes on its back.
The green Wind Riding Bird certainly did not want the unconscious Instructor Mei Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang to fall from its back when they were flying quite high in the sky. It also could not tie them onto its own back because it only has a pair of bird ws used to run on the ground.
However, the green Wind Riding Bird became really anxious and panicked when it realized that Elder Yang was slowly closing the distance between them from behind.
The green Wind Riding Bird pped its wings more rapidly to fly even faster, but the unconscious Instructor Mei Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang started to slip from its back and fell instead because of the fierce wind.
The green Wind Riding Bird plunged swiftly from the sky and caught the unconscious Instructor Mei Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang with its pair of bird ws before they smashed onto the ground.
Unfortunately, that small ident gave Elder Yang ample time to catch up to it, and he was currently already floating right in front of the green Wind Riding Bird.
The green Wind Riding Bird knew that it could no longer escape from Elder Yang since he was already so close to it. The green Wind Riding Bird prepared for thest struggle and fought with its life at the line.
Elder Yang did not even bother to be wary of the green Wind Riding Bird, since the green Wind Riding Bird was nothing more than a weak mount in Elder Yang''s eyes.
With her current strength, he could easily kill the green Wind Riding Bird anytime if he really wanted it.
Elder Yang nced at the two unconscious girls in the grasp of the green Wind Riding Bird''s ws.
Instructor Mei Lan''s ck veil and ck hood had long been torn in her battle against Zuo Hongzhuang before.
While Zuo Hongzhuang already canceled her disguise and turned back into her real appearance before she even fought against Instructor Mei Lan.
Elder Yang could see the real appearance of Instructor Mei Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang very clearly.
He frowned deeply and thought with hesitation: ''Both of them have fox ears? So both of them are from Fox Race? I wonder if they are really Xiao Bai''s friends...''
Elder Yang controlled his flying sword to fly slowly forward and tried to approach the fainted Instructor Mei Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang.
"KKKEEEAAAAAAKKK~!!!" The green Wind Riding Bird chirped threateningly at Elder Yang as if a hen tried to protect its chicks.
"You do not need to worry. If I really want to kill or catch all of you, I can do it easily right now, no matter how much you struggle. I only want to check on their current condition." Elder Yang casually said to the green Wind Riding Bird while kept approaching the fainted Instructor Mei Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang.
The green Wind Riding Bird was unwilling to let Elder Yang approach the fainted Instructor Mei Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang, but it also knew that it did not have any other choice than toply with his will right now.
Elder Yang immediately recognized Instructor Mei Lan after he saw Instructor Mei Lan''s blood-covered appearance from close and eximed: "Ah, I know this girl. She was in one group with Xiao Bai when I invite them to enter Imperial Pce before. It seems they really are Xiao Bai''s friends."
The green Wind Riding Bird kept vigntly staring at Elder Yang and ready to react if he did something strange to the fainted Instructor Mei Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang, but Elder Yang did not mind it and checked on the condition of the fainted two.
Elder Yang frowned deeper and murmured: "Their condition is not too good. They are too heavily wounded. If they are human, they would certainly already dead by now. But at least, their life is not in danger. Moreover, Beast Race is really tenacious, so they should be able to recover sooner orter."
Elder Yang took out two Wound Recovery Pills and two Blood Replenishing Pills, then wanted to give them to the fainted Instructor Mei Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang.
But the suspicious green Wind Riding Bird did not let it, and it quickly intercepted Elder Yang.
The annoyed Elder Yang popped the pills into his own mouth and patiently exined to the green Wind Riding Bird: "Look, these pills are only medicine to help them recover from their wounds."
The green Wind Riding Bird felt more assured after Elder Yang proved that his pills were not dangerous, then it finally let Elder Yang feed his pills to the fainted Instructor Mei Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang.
"You can go now. Just be more careful on your way!" Elder Yang said as he waved his hand to chase the green Wind Riding Bird away.
The green Wind Riding Bird was bbergasted by Elder Yang''s words and opened its beak in disbelief.
Elder Yang chuckled and said with a mocking tone: "What? Do you really want me to catch you and those people, then bring all of you back to Imperial Pce?"
When it heard Elder Yang''s mocking words, the green Wind Riding Bird immediately chirped in panic and flew away as fast as possible to escape out from Tang Feng City.
Elder Yang wanted to fly back to Imperial Pce, but after pondered it for a few moments, he decided to escort the green Wind Riding Bird out from the Tang Feng City from afar.
"Sigh¡ It would be bad if something happened to them here. Xiao Bai does not remember anything about me anymore, but I can still approach her step by step like the first time we met, but if something bad happened to her friends here, she might think that I am the culprit and hate me for it." Elder Yang murmured and sighed in worry.
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue already rode on her Wind Riding Bird and flying further and further away from Tang Feng City to catch up with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao a few minutes ago.
She was no longer heavily injured since she already used [Damage Transfer] skill to transfer all of her wounds to her perfect copy previously when her perfect copy was still in Elder Yang''s luxurious carriage.
It did not take long for her to catch up with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao that already waited for her a few tens of miles away from Tang Feng City.
The fake Crown Prince Feng was also still staying with them, so the four of them only need to wait for Instructor Mei Lan to meet with them here.
Chapter 399: Tang Li Xues Idea!
Chapter 399: Tang Li Xue''s Idea!
Before entered Tang Feng City, Instructor Mei Lan and the others already surveyed the surrounding area of Tang Feng City and decided where they should wait to meet with each other if they got separated and hastily escaped from Tang Feng City like what happened right now.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the fake Crown Prince Feng were currently sat in the middle of the dim forest, only illuminated by the moonlight.
Making a campfire in this kind of situation might be the best decision in Tang Li Xue''s previous world because it could warm their body and scare away any beast such as bugs or snakes.
But it was a really unwise decision in this Immortal World because it would attract many stronger wild beasts or bandits instead, so Tang Li Xue and the others decided to not make any campfire.
"Hei, why did your leader take so long toe here? She will definitely bring my mother back with her too, right? Hei, do not ignore me and answer my questions!" The anxious fake Crown Prince Feng yapped nonstop toward Tang Li Xue and the others.
But Tang Li Xue and the others did not even bother to pay any attention to this fussy fake Crown Prince Feng and silently waited for Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue gently stroked at the heads of Little Loki and Yaya, who lied down on her soft and warmp after she apologized and praised them for what they had done to help her escape from Elder Yang before.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue had so many problems swirling in her mind to think and ponder carefully, such as the mysterious scene with Elder Yang that suddenly appeared in her mind, her identity as the fox in human form that got discovered by Elder Yang, and Elder Yang''s shocking secret that he told to her...
Which part of these she would report to Instructor Mei Lanter? Everything? Or she has to keep some of it as her secret? But she already promised to Elder Yang to never tell his secret to anyone before!
So, Tang Li Xue certainly did not have any free time to leisurely chat with fussy fake Crown Prince Feng.
Little Loki and Yaya were still small after all, while it was already past midnight right now, so they were already dozing and felt really sleepy.
Meanwhile, Bing Yi sat right beside Tang Li Xue and peacefully leaning toward Tang Li Xue''s shoulder with a bit smile on her face.
Tang Li Xue was indifferent to the fussy fake Crown Prince Feng while Bing Yi always looked cold and unfriendly toward other people than Tang Li Xue.
So the responsibility for taking care andmunicate with the fussy fake Crown Prince Feng was automatically fell into Hei Yinghao''s shoulder.
From Hei Yinghao chat with the fake Crown Prince Feng, they already knew that he was not alone in Imperial Pce.
They also finally knew that Zuo Hongzhuang was the fake Crown Prince Feng''s mother.
The serial killer and the mastermind of all of these incidents were also the fake Crown Prince Feng''s mother, not this burden¡ I mean the fake Crown Prince Feng.
At first, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao wanted to go back to Tang Feng City and told Instructor Mei Lan about all of these facts, but Tang Li Xue immediately stopped them and warned: "I think Instructor Lan should already guess something like this before and find some ways to deal with it. But whether Instructor Lan already guessed about this or not, we definitely cannot go back to Tang Feng City anymore for now."
"Why? We can escape from them once, so we definitely can escape from them for the second time too, right?" Hei Yinghao asked with a curious tone.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and replied with a mocking tone: "Na?ve! If we go back to Tang Feng City right now, we will only be a bunch of burdens to Instructor Lan and adding more of her jobs. Those Nascent Soul Stage elders are not a bunch of brainless people. We will definitely get caught by them if we dare to go back into Tang Feng City again."
Tang Li Xue already had a taste of it and fought one on one against Elder Yang before. He was really powerful, and his cultivation was still only at Core Formation Stage!
If they were facing head-on against four Nascent Soul Stage elders without any sufficient preparation like before¡ Tang Li Xue did not even dare to imagine the result!
In fact, their first escape was only sessful because of the element of surprise. They entered the banquet scene swiftly and escaped from there as quickly as possible with the fake Crown Prince Feng.
But they were still almost get caught by Elder Yang so many times if not for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy acted as a hostage twice to get them out from that dire situation!
In the end, after discussed it together for a while, they finally decided to patiently wait for Instructor Mei Lan here.
Although they seem to be patiently waited and acted normally right now, but this waiting was still really painful for them.
This was only their first A Grade mission, and their opponents were overpowered them by several levels. Forget about four Nascent Soul Stage elders, they could not even defeat one Nascent Soul Stage elder without Instructor Mei Lan''s help!
In the case of something worst happened like if their Instructor Mei Lan got caught by those people from Immortal Sword Sect, they might be panicked and do not know what they must do next.
Fortunately, that kind of worst-case did not happen.
After waited for quite a while, they finally saw Instructor Mei Lan''s green-colored Wind Riding Bird flew toward them from afar.
"Sigh¡ Instructor Lan finallye. I wonder if she brought that Zuo with her or not? I really do not want to go back into that city again¡" Bing Yi sighed in relief as she stood up and stared at the green-colored Wind Riding Bird.
When the green-colored Wind Riding Birdnded a few meters from them, they saw the unconscious Instructor Mei Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang on its back.
"Instructor Lan!" Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao shouted with a worried tone together and ran to check at Instructor Mei Lan''s condition.
"Mom!" The fake Crown Prince Feng also shouted and ran toward Zuo Hongzhuang.
"Stop there! Let me check on their condition first. We do not know if there are some traps or poisons put on them, so we better be more careful. You guys better stay here and do not carelessly approach them." Tang Li Xue quickly warned them with a stern tone.
The fake Crown Prince Feng, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao quickly halted their step and hesitated for a few moments.
"But Little Xue, it is dangerous for you too¡" Bing Yi protested to Tang Li Xue, and Hei Yinghao also nodded his head.
"Hehe¡ are you forget what Instructor Lan had said before. I have more life-saving skillspared to you two, so I would be okay." Tang Li Xue replied as sheughed confidently.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and approached the green-colored Wind Riding Bird to check on the condition of unconscious Instructor Mei Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang.
After using her [Extrasensory Perception] and making sure that everything was safe,? Tang Li Xue turned off her [Ethereal Form] and touched both of them.
"They are okay. It looks like they were heavily injured before, but their injures already have gotten better. Instructor Lan might use the [Talisman of Regeneration +3] I gave to her before to heal their wounds." Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she checked their condition.
"Eh? What is this?" Tang Li Xue identally found a piece of cloth stuck on Instructor Mei Lan''s tattered ck clothes.
It was actually a white handkerchief written with blood.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply but she still decided to read it.
''You write that I owe you two lives, so they are my first down payment to you. But don''t worry, my life is still yours.''
Tang Li Xue crumpled the white handkerchief in shock and disbelief.
Because she previously wrote something like ''you owe me two lives now! Don''t forget to pay it back to meter!'' on Elder Yang''s white robe after she decided to spare him inside the luxurious carriage before.
"Holysh*t! So, Instructor Lan and this Zuo really almost get caught by him?! But why did he release them again? Is it because he wants to pay his debt to me? His two lives to trade with the lives of Instructor Lan and this Zuo?" Tang Li Xue murmured in confusion.
Tang Li Xue bit her pink lips in hesitation, but she still decided to keep this white handkerchief for herself and decided not to tell about it to anyone.
When Tang Li Xue wanted to get both Instructor Lan and Zuo Hongzhuang off from the green Wind Riding Bird''s back, she suddenly got a sh of inspiration.
"Oh, wait¡ wait a minute... Isn''t this a big chance for me?!" Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering like a pair of blue stars.
Tang Li Xue opened the quest log in her system and found that her quest was actually notpleted yet.
------------------
[Quest: (Inspector) The cold-blooded serial killer is currently lurking in Tang Feng City. Many lives have already fallen in its hands. Help Instructor Mei Lan catch that cold-blooded serial killer and stop it from doing more ughter.]
[Difficulty: Hard]
[Requirement: Keen Senses and High-level of Intelligence]
[Reward: Level +3(+1), Stat Point +300(+75), Skill Point +45(+11), 400(+100) Deity Coins]
[Requirement for Perfect Evaluation: Defeat the Serial Killer by your own hands.]
[Additional Reward: Skill Point +100]
------------------
"Defeat the serial killer by my own hands¡ Uwehehehe¡ Let''s try it and see!" Tang Li Xueughed mischievously as she took out something from her space pouch.
Chapter 400: Quest and Mission Completed!
Chapter 400: Quest and Mission Completed!
The item that Tang Li Xue took out from her space pouch was actually the thick ck chain.
This thick ck chain was the [Blood Sealing Chain] that was previously used to bind Red Eyes Winged Lizard in Asura Demon Sect, and Tang Li Xue used this [Blood Sealing Chain] to bind Zuo Hongzhuang right now.
The fake Crown Prince Feng immediately realized Tang Li Xue''s action and shouted in anger: "What are you doing?! Stop it! Do not touch my mom!"
The fake Crown Prince Feng dashed as fast as he could toward Tang Li Xue to stop her from tying Zuo Hongzhuang, but he was immediately stopped by Hei Yinghao before he could approach Tang Li Xue.
"Quickly arrest him too!" Tang Li Xue told Hei Yinghao while she was still busily tying Zuo Hongzhuang with her [Blood Sealing Chain] tightly.
Bing Yi nodded at Tang Li Xue and executed her request without any hesitation.
Meanwhile, Hei Yinghao was still hesitating and decided to ask Tang Li Xue: "This...Err...? Aren''t we too harsh to them? They are still the offspring from the higher up of Myriad Foxes Academy after all. I am afraid we will get into troubleter if we treat them too harshly."
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and replied with her deduction: "Both Instructor Lan and this Zuo were heavily injured before, but thankfully they are already all right now. That was the reason why they fell unconscious. Judged by their wounds, the cause of it was not human''s martial arts, but because they fought against each other."
Tang Li Xue was not a doctor or physician, but it was not that hard to determine the cause of their wounds.
The injuries caused by human martial arts will definitely leave the residue of their Qi that would still wreak havoc in the body of the target, and it would make the injuries harder to recover than usual, just like what happened to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy when faced against the skull-masked man in Quanhai City.
But it would not work on the real Tang Li Xue at all because her two high-rank bloodlines and me of Pride in her veins that would act as the immune system and neutralize or rather... purify any kind of dangerous substance, Qi, or Poison invaded her body.
Hei Yinghao widened his eyes in surprise and eximed: "What?! So, they are like this because they fought against each other?!"
While Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao chatted with each other, Bing Yi already froze the fake Crown Prince Feng with her [Freezing Field] divine ability and brought the frozen fake Crown Prince Feng to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue decided to tie the frozen fake Crown Prince Feng together with the unconscious Zuo Hongzhuang with her [Blood Sealing Chain].
''Come on... Come on... Look, I defeat the serial killer with my own hands, right?! I mean I tied her with my own tools and using my own hands, right?! So please¡ please, let me have that additional 100 Skill Point! I really need it SO BADLY right now!'' Tang Li Xue prayed in her heart.
But her system still did not give her any response, so Tang Li Xue could only sigh in disappointment.
''It seems I must bring them back to Myriad Foxes Academy toplete the A Grade mission and system''s quest at the same time so the system could proceed to give me the reward of the quest.'' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind.
After tied the unconscious Zuo Hongzhuang and the frozen fake Crown Prince Feng tightly together, Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao took out their respective Wind Riding Bird from their space pouch and rode on it.
Tang Li Xue decided to bring the tied Zuo Hongzhuang and the fake Crown Prince Feng on her Wind Riding Bird''s back.
Bing Yi brought the still unconscious Instructor Mei Lan on its Wind Riding Bird''s back while Instructor Mei Lan''s green-colored Wind Riding Bird followed her closely from behind.
All of the Wind Riding Birds pped their wings and soaring to the night sky together. Their destination was of course to return to Myriad Foxes Academy as soon as possible.
It only took fifteen minutes or so for Instructor Mei Lan to regain her consciousness again because Bing Yi used Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Regeneration +3] on Instructor Mei Lan on their way back to Myriad Foxes Academy.
Fortunately for them, they did not meet any mishap on their way back under Instructor Mei Lan''s guidance.
Even with the endurance and speed of their Wind Riding Birds, it still took them a few days to return to the ce where they went out from Myriad Foxes Academy before.
They ordered their Wind Riding Birds tond in the middle of the forest near theke.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao already changed back to their student white uniform with their inspector blue robe, while Instructor Mei Lan also already changed her tattered ck clothes with her usual graceful white dress.
Tang Li Xue also already wore back her Fox Mask to cover her stunningly beautiful face.
Instructor Mei Lan took out her white jade badge from her space pouch and raised it to open the way back into Myriad Foxes Academy.
After the space gate has opened, they brought the tied Zuo Hongzhuang and the fake Crown Prince Feng with them then entered the space gate together.
When they got out from the space gate, they stood in the middle of the giant ring in the giant bright room.
"Haaahhh¡ Atst, wee back home¡ I am really tired and want to sleep so badly right now." Hei Yinghao said as he opened his mouth very wide and yawned.
Even Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi felt the same as Hei Yinghao right now as they felt really tired physically and mentally because theypleted the two troublesome missions consecutively.
"Bear with it for now. We just need to bring these two and report back to Mission Hall, then our mission will be officiallypleted, and all of you would free to do whatever you want afterward." Instructor Mei Lanforted them.
Tang Li Xue''s eyes were glittering brightly after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words because it means her quest will finally bepleted too, and she could im the reward from her system.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao obediently followed Instructor Mei Lan to the mission hall while brought the tied Zuo Hongzhuang and the fake Crown Prince Feng with them.
Zuo Hongzhuang and the fake Crown Prince Feng did not struggle and silently followed them. It seems they already knew that no one would hurt them here in Myriad Foxes Academy so they were very cooperative.
But being tied with Tang Li Xue''s [Blood Sealing Chain] drained them of all of their Vitality Energy and stamina, so they would not even be able to put up any fight even if they want to resist.
Instructor Mei Lan and the others easily brought the two of them to the mission hall.
"Little Xue, you can take back that ck chain right now. You do not want the people from the mission hall to take your ck chain along with these two, right?" Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue while giggled at her.
"Oh¡ All right, I will take it now." Tang Li Xue quickly took the [Blood Sealing Chain] back and stored it carefully into her space pouch.
This [Blood Sealing Chain] was clearly her only treasure with the function to catch and bind her targets, so she surely did not want to donate it to Mission Hall.
"All right, all of you only need to wait here. I am going to bring these two into the Mission Hall since if we enter there together, the people from the Mission Hall will ask all of us to report everything we do on our mission in detail. It will certainly take a lot more time." Instructor Mei Lan exined to them.
A Grade and B Grade missions were very important after all, so the people from the Mission Hall also need to record all of the information in great detail about everything that happened to avoid any mishap in the future.
For example in this mission, Instructor Mei Lan''s group met with the people from Immortal Sword Sect and already got recognized by them, so in the near future, the people from the Mission Hall would never send them into the mission rted to the Immortal Sword Sect again to avoid any ident.
In short, any kind of information would sometimes make a great difference between life and death, so Mission Hall never took even the most trivial and dull information lightly.
Mission Hall''s motto was ''no information waspletely useless. Depend on the creature that applies it, any kind of information could be useful or even vital.''
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei YInghao nodded their head to Instructor Mei Lan and patiently waited for her in front of Mission Hall while Instructor Mei Lan brought Zuo Hongzhuang and the fake Crown Prince Feng into the Mission Hall.
It did not take long before Tang Li Xue received a notification from her system after Instructor Mei Lan entered the Mission Hall''s building.
-----------------------------------------------------
Ding!
[Quest Completed!]

[Congrattion! You have achieved level 14! Stat Points +100, Skill Point +15]
-----------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue clenched her fist in excitement and thought: ''Yes! I really got a Perfect Evaluation! Muahahaha... 100 Skill Points! Damn, that is a lot! Almost equal to seven times level up! Sigh¡ Luckily, I am smart enough to realize the loophole in the quest''s exnation at thest moment.''
There were two key sentences that made Tang Li Xue realized it when she saw the quest notification for thest time.
''Help Instructor Mei Lan catch that cold-blooded serial killer and stop it from doing more ughter.''
''Defeat the Serial Killer by your own hands.''
These sentences might seem contradictory to each other, but the meaning was actually quite clear.
It means Tang Li Xue must help Instructor Mei Lan to catch the serial killer, but she must also catch the serial killer with her own hands to get a Perfect Evaluation.
Tang Li Xue nced at the total Deity Coins in her status window since she wanted to use it toprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form].
[921 Deity Coins]
''Ah, damn it! I need to pay 1,000 Deity Coins toprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]. It means I still need to get about 80 Deity Coins more to be able to buy it!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in annoyance.
While Tang Li Xue was still in her own world, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao already sat under a nearby tree and snooze in drowsiness.
At that time, some of their acquaintance went out from Mission Hall, and they identally met with Tang Li Xue''s group, who was currently waiting in front of the Mission Hall''s building.
"Mogui!" Tang Li Xue shouted in surprise as she tried to warn Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao while raised her vignce to the maximum.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao immediately woke up from their light sleep and immediately stood up in shock while facing Mogui''s group.
"It is you!" Mogui and his group also shouted in surprise.
It looks like Mogui and his friends also did not expect that they will meet with Tang Li Xue''s group here, and it made Tang Li Xue calmed down a bit.
''It seems these scourges are note to meet with us on purpose. I hope they will not make things difficult for us again since we already defeat them in the fair and square match before.'' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind.

Both Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi puffed their chest to intimidate Mogui''s group as they stood gantly in front of Tang Li Xue, and they looked ready to confront Mogui''s group.
"What do you looking at? Go away! If not, we will beat all of you again until you lie on the bed for another month!" Hei Yinghao put fierce expression and threatened Mogui''s group right on their face.
"That is right! Go away!" Bing Yi also shouted to scare Mogui''s group.
"You¡!!!" The chubby guy with a blue-haired ponytail gnashed his teeth in anger and shouted in anger to Tang Li Xue''s group, but Mogui immediately raised his palm to stop him.
Even the red-haired beauty red at Tang Li Xue with the pair of eyes filled with murderous intent.
If they were not in front of a public ce such as this Mission Hall, she would certainly already pounce toward Tang Li Xue and exact her revenge by stuffing a pole into Tang Li Xue''s ''back door'', just like what Tang Li Xue had done to her in their sparring match before.
Mogui walked toward Tang Li Xue''s group, but he ignored both Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi and calmly walked past them. He only halted his step after he stood right in front of Tang Li Xue.
"You¡" Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao thought that Mogui wanted to sneak attacking Tang Li Xue, so they immediately moved to attack Mogui from behind, but Tang Li Xue raised her palm to stop them from making any reckless move.
Forget about a public ce like Mission Hall, they even almost got harshly punished when they fought in front of their own room in the Residential Building before.
If they dared to start a fight in a public ce like Mission Hall, the punishment they would receive surely many times more severe.
Tang Li Xue was also very sure that Mogui and his group also did not dare to attack them recklessly here, thus she was also not afraid of them.
"What do you want? Another sparring match?" Tang Li Xue smiled at Mogui without any fear and asked with a nonchnt tone.
Tang Li Xue might be a bit nervous and afraid when Mogui challenged her before, but right now, she has already be a lot stronger and smarter than before.
The current Tang Li Xue had a lot of confidence that she could definitely make a wless n and have more than enough strength to defeat Mogui''s group cleanly.
Moreover, both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao also have already grown a lot stronger too under Instructor Mei Lan''s hellish level training.
Tang Li Xue''s team was on apletely different levelpared to when they were facing Mogui''s group before and could only barely win because Tang Li Xue exploited the amazing effect of her mighty Golden [Inscription Pen].
[Effect 6: Pration (Can prate any kind of surface or carve any inscription in any kind of surface)]
With this effect, forget about Mogui''s ck armor created from his own divine ability, Tang Li Xue could even carve any runes she wants at the true dragon''s scales.
Despite Tang Li Xue''s prediction, Mogui suddenly moved his hand swiftly toward Tang Li Xue.
''What?! He really dares to attack me here?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in disbelief.
It was true that she was very surprised, but she did not panic at all.
Tang Li Xue also quickly raised her hands to defend herself against Mogui''s attack.
She already prepared herself to withstand some pain to counterattacking, but contrary to her expectation, she did not feel any pain at all.
Mogui only grasped at the palm of her hands gently, then kneeled right in front of her.
"Oh, My Charming Goddess, the most beautiful maiden among all I have ever met. I can no longer forget your dazzling beauty anymore ever since I saw your true appearance for the first time in our fateful duel. You havepletely taken my soul since then, and I have always dreamed of you every single night. So, please¡ Please marry me right now! I promise you that I will certainly make you happy and cherish you more than anyone else." Mogui spoke his speech while kept staring at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with adoration.
Tang Li Xue: "¡.."
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi: "¡.."
Red-haired beauty and the chubby guy with blue-haired ponytail: "¡.."
Everyone dropped their jaw in shock and becamepletely speechless for one full minute.
Even Tang Li Xue''s mind felt dizzy and great headache after she heard Mogui''s confession.
Just when Tang Li Xue and the others wanted to react, all of them suddenly heard the sound of pping hands from behind Mogui''s group¡
"Tsk, tsk, tsk¡ To think that you already be so low until you dare to kneel in front of the trash group from the trashy ss. No wonder you always at the bottom of our Elite ss! Why don''t you bring your team and just transfer to their trashy ss since you are not worthy to be in the Elite ss anyway?!" The male voice mercilessly mocked Mogui.
"Who is there?! How dare you¡" The chubby guy with a blue-haired ponytail shouted in anger and turned his body around, but he immediately halted his words and shrunk back while timidly lowered his head.
Mogui stood up and nced at the source of the voice, then found out that the one who spoke was actually the students from Elite ss like him too.
But different from him, which belongs to the lowest echelon of Elite ss, they were the true elites from the middle echelon of Elite ss.
There were also three people in this group as usual but the pressure of their aura made the other did not dare to approach them.
The first person was a beautiful cold looking girl with long white hair. She looked sixty to seventy percent identical to Bing Yi.
Tang Li Xue immediately recognized this girl.
This cold girl was actually the White cial Fox that Tang Li Xue had met in the entry trial of Myriad Foxes Academy.
She was also Zi Yan''s disciple, and Tang Li Xue had met her in Inscriptionist Association when she took the entry exam.
The second person was an arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair.
Tang Li Xue felt as if her eyes got prickled when she nced at this guy with purple curling hair, even though he did not even do anything and only stood there quietly.
Thest one was also a thin guy with long straight hair, but strangely, half of his hair has white color while the other half has ck color.
This guy with ck and white hair looked always smile, but there was no doubt that he was the most vicious among this group since he was the one who mercilessly mocked Mogui just now.
Mogui frowned in annoyance when his precious confession time got interrupted, so he decided to reply with a cold tone: "What I am doing is my own business. You do not have any rtion with me, so why do you need to care about what I am doing. Besides that, I entered Myriad Foxes Academy first, so my seniority is higher than all of you. ording to etiquette, then you must call me as Senior."
Normally, Mogui would never talk back to this middle echelon group of Elite ss like this, since it was the same as asking to be beaten, but his ego refused to bow down right now, especially in front of the girl he liked.
The thin guy with ck and white hair was stunned silly by Mogui''s reply for a few moments before burstughing out loud.
Meanwhile, the arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair felt pissed off and frowned deeply, then he suddenly raised his right hand and flicked his finger toward Mogui.
The purple lightning was flickering on the top of the arrogant-looking guy''s finger, and the purple lightning was shooting toward Mogui.
Mogui already raised his vignce to the maximum and activated his [Demonic Form] divine ability, then condensing a solid ck armor on his chest.
But the purple lightning was too fast!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGGGGG~!!!
The purple lightning hit right at Mogui''s chest before he could even finish his [Demonic Form] and finish condensing his ck armor.
His ck armor was shattered, and Mogui''s body flew tens of meters backward until he mmed onto another building''s wall behind him.
''F¡ Fast! That is too fast! I can only see it when the purple lightning is shing at the tip of his finger!'' Tang Li Xue thought in awe as she raised her guards even more.
She did not even have any confidence to dodge or block that purple lightning attack.
Usually, any powerful move needs time to charge or do elementalpression, like half-second or one second, but this arrogant-looking guy did it so casually like he was only doing a light jab.
Tang Li Xue also finally identified this arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair.
He was actually the [Elite] grade, [Thunder and Lightning Caller Fox], she met during the entry exam of Myriad Foxes Academy.
Mogui gnashed his teeth in shame and anger. He tried to stand up again, but¡
BBBZZZZTTT¡ BBZZZTTT¡
The purple lightning was spreading around his body andpletely paralyzed him in an instant.
Forget about standing up again, he could not even move any of his limbs anymore for now.
Twitching the tip of his fingers was all he could do right now.
"MOGUI~!" The red-haired beauty and the blue-haired chubby guy with a ponytail ran toward Mogui to help him.
"Know your ce, lowly insect! If you want us to call you Senior, at least make yourself stronger until you can put a good fight against me." The arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair muttered with a monotonous tone.
These guys looked annoying and arrogant to the max, but they were extremely powerful. Even Mogui''s group did not dare to retort any of their mocking and could only swallow it silently.
Both Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao really did not want to sh with them unless it was really necessary.
But Bing Yi did not seem to think so¡
Bing Yi gritted her teeth in intense anger while screamed out loud with a tone filled with an unimaginable amount of hatred: "BING¡ SHUI¡!!!"
Then she dashed toward the beautiful cold looking girl with long white hair while activated both of her divine abilities, [Freezing Field] and [Corrosive Frost] without holding back at all.
The area around them was covered with a thick frost in an instant, and Bing Yi also arrived in front of Bing Shui in a blink of an eye.
Chapter 402: Bing Yis Team VS Bing Shuis Team!
Chapter 402: Bing Yi''s Team VS Bing Shui''s Team!
Bing Yi swiftly swung her fist using all of her strength toward Bing Shui''s face.
She really wanted to pound the face of this traitorous demon so badly until it became blood pulp.
But her fist stopped a few inches right before it could hit Bing Shui''s face.
Bing Yi gnashed her teeth in annoyance and looked downward.
She immediately realized that her feet were actually already frozen along with the floor below her feet, and she could not take another step closer to Bing Shui.
"Bing Yi, you have grown up and be stronger, but it is still not enough to face me." Bing Shui muttered with a cold tone as if she was talking to a stranger rather than her own little sister.
"Die, you traitor!" Bing Yi screamed with a shrill voice filled with intense resentment.
Bing Yipressed her freezing power on the top of her palm and pushed it toward Bing Shui.
[Freezing st]!
The freezing powerpressed into the form of a small ball shot toward Bing Shui, but Bing Shui''s calm expression did not show any change or reaction at all.
BBBAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
The ballpressed from the freezing power exploded and dispersed right before it even hit Bing Shui!
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper in worry and thought: ''Her control over ice elemental already reached this degree?! This is bad! Can Bingbing''s strength even match her at this point?''
The arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair also frowned deeply in aggravation, but of course, it was for a different reason with Tang Li Xue.
"Can you stop ying around? We have more important things to do today." The arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair reprimanded Bing Shui with an annoyed tone.
"She is the one attacking me first. I do not even do anything yet." Bing Shui coldly replied the arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair.
Meanwhile, Bing Yi kept attacking Bing Shui with her ice-type divine ability, but Bing Shui effortlessly dispersed all of Bing Yi''s attacks using her own ice-type divine ability.
The arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair looked even more displeased as he red at Bing Yi.
Then he took one step forward.
It seems he wanted to attack Bing Yi too since he did not want to waste any more of his precious time for a bunch of the trashes like Bing Yi, Mogui, and the others.
"Hei, Sissy Guy! You want to gang up against a girl! What a coward?! At least pick someone on your size!" Hei Yinghao mocked the arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair and took a step forward toward him too.
The arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair sneered and replied with a scornful tone: "Someone on my size? You? Are you even worth it?"
Hei Yinghao suddenly waved his palm toward the arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair and the destructive ck lightning shot out toward him!
[Lightning of Destruction]!
"Hooo¡ Not bad¡ for a trash level student." The arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair murmured as he suddenly flicked his sleeve.
Then a terrifying purple lightning bolt descended down out of nowhere and struck Hei Yinghao''s destructive ck lightning.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Hei Yinghao''s [Lightning of Destruction] was canceled out each other when it met against the terrifying purple lightning bolt.
But the attack from the arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair did not end just like that.
RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Another terrifying purple lightning bolt struck down again, but this time, its target was Hei Yinghao himself.
[Blood Burst] Activated!
[Blood Ignition]¡ Eight Times Amplification!
Hei Yinghao''s overall strength soared in an instant when he activated both of his divine abilities, but the terrifying purple lightning bolt was still too much faster for him!
Hei Yinghao was forced to jump backward until he fell onto the ground to dodge it.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
But before Hei Yinghao could take any breath, another terrifying purple lightning bolt struck down for the third time!
Hei Yinghao gnashed his teeth as he decided to roll to his left side to dodge it this time.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
However, the fourth terrifying purple lightning bolt already struck down again for the fourth time!
Hei Yinghao needs to charge for half a second to shot out his [Lightning of Destruction], but this arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair could actually attack nonstop with his terrifying purple lightning without any pause at all and each of his attacks was actually as powerful as Hei Yinghao''s [Lightning of Destruction] or might be even more powerful!
"I want to see how long you can keep dodging my [Thunder Storm]." The arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair sneered at Hei Yinghao as he watched Hei Yinghao kept rolling on the ground like a rat in heat.
Tang Li Xue could not watch it anymore, so she decided to take a step forward and help the bullied Hei Yinghao.
But before Tang Li Xue had any chance to help Hei Yinghao, the smiling guy with ck and white hair already obstructed Tang Li Xue''s way, then said with a teasing tone: "Hi, maskeddy! It is not good to bother others ying, so please allow me to apany you this time. I happen to want to see your real face behind that mask. I want to know how beautiful your face until you can make that guy so infatuated to you."
"I do not have any free time to y with you! Get lost!" Tang Li Xue shouted in annoyance as she used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to nimbly run past the smiling guy with ck and white hair.
Her every movement was very nimble and flexible but looked really graceful.
It seems Tang Li Xue''s [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] had improved a lot, and it finally managed to reach Mastered level after Tang Li Xue helped Instructor Mei Lan toplete two hard missions outside Myriad Foxes Academy.
----------------------------------------------------------
Ding!
[Imperial Moon Dancer - Moonlight Flickering sh Step has increased to Mastered!]
[You have unlocked Imperial Moon Dancer ¨C Moon Shattering Strike (Lv1)!]
----------------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue felt surprised and happy to get a new skill, but this was not the right timing to test it since she did not know how powerful this new skill.
''But ording to its name, [Moon Shattering Strike]¡ It should be very powerful, right? I should forget it for now¡ I must quickly help Silly Fox first right now before he got struck by those purple lightning and turned into a roasted fox.'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind.
The guy with ck and white hair sneered sinisterly at Tang Li Xue and took out something from behind him, then threw it toward Tang Li Xue from behind.
Of course, Tang Li Xue already sensed his every movement clearly with her [Extrasensory Perception], and immediately knew what he had already done behind her.
''A sneak attack? What did he throw? A dagger?'' Tang Li Xue felt a bit surprised since a fox like him was using a human weapon.
With her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], Tang Li Xue''s speed was really fast. She tilted her flexible body to the right side to easily dodge the dagger thrown by the guy with ck and white hair.
The dagger passed a few inches from her left shoulder, and Tang Li Xue finally realized something: ''That is not a dagger! That is¡ a sharpened fang?!''
Then all of a sudden, the dagger¡ or rather a sharpened fang¡ changed into the guy with ck and white hair in an instant!
"What the¡" Tang Li Xue was very shocked, but before she had any time to react or finish her words, the guy with ck and white hair already mercilessly threw a strong kick toward Tang Li Xue''s face.
BBBAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
The powerful kick from the guy with ck and white hairnded right on Tang Li Xue''s face!
ording to the strength he used, this guy with ck and white hair did not have any intention to see Tang Li Xue''s face at all!
On the contrary, he should be intending to disfigure Tang Li Xue''s face with this powerful kick.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue could react fast to stop sprinting forward and jump backward on time to mitigate some strength of the powerful kick.
The powerful kick from the guy with ck and white hair managed to smash Tang Li Xue''s fox mask, but Tang Li Xue already nimbly somersault backward and even wanted to deliver a somersault kick toward the chin of the guy with ck and white hair.
But the guy with ck and white hair switched ce again with his sharpened fang and appeared right behind Tang Li Xue in an instant again!
The guy with ck and white hairughed in a sinister way and threw another sharp kick toward Tang Li Xue from behind when Tang Li Xue was still somersault backward, and her feet were still in the mid-air.
Tang Li Xue could only grit her teeth and crossed both of her hands in front of her face to defend herself, then used [Energy Maniption] to create a shield on her hands.
Suddenly, a small typhoon covered Tang Li Xue''s entire body to protect her from any harm.
BBWWOOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
[Hurricane Barrier]!
Yaya, who sat silently on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head all this time, finally decided to make her move to help Tang Li Xue.
The powerful sharp kick from the guy with ck and white hair shed with Yaya''s [Hurricane Barrier] and Tang Li Xue''s white shield created from her [Energy Maniption].
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGGG~!!!
Yaya''s [Hurricane Barrier] dispersed under the destructive power from the fast sharp kick and even Tang Li Xue''s white shield was shattered to pieces.
Tang Li Xue flew backward several meters, but she did not get injured at all, thanks to the protection from Yaya''s [Hurricane Barrier] and the white shield.
However, the merciless guy with ck and white hair did not n to spare Tang Li Xue!
He switched ce for the third time with his sharpened fang and appeared right behind Tang Li Xue in an instant!
He was ready to deliver another lethal attack toward Tang Li Xue from behind!
.....
Mogui''s body was still paralyzed by the purple lightning, but he still could mutter slowly to his team.
"Help¡ them¡" Mogui talked with a slurred tone since his entire body was still felt numb, but it was enough to make his teammates understand his intention.
"What?! Why do we need to help them?! Besides that, you should already know that we are not the match of those foxes from middle ranks at all." The red-haired beautyined.
"Brother Mogui should mean that we can use those people to help us defeat those foxes from middle ranks to raise our name. Who knows if we can reach middle rankster with their help, right?!" The blue-haired chubby guy with a ponytail exined while his eyes glinted coldly at Bing Yi''s team.
He really could no longer stand this arrogant team from the middle ranks anymore, so that was the reason why he even bothers to persuade his teammate right now.
Chapter 403: Harsh Penalty!
Chapter 403: Harsh Penalty!
"Arghhh¡ All right! I get it! But I will never help that despicable fox masked girl!" The red-haired beauty gnashed her teeth and groaned in displeasure, but she still decided to help Tang Li Xue''s team in the end.
The red-haired beauty activated her divine ability, and her slender body immediately turned into a burly three-meter giant as she rushed toward Bing Yi to assist her in facing Bing Shui.
Meanwhile, the blue-haired chubby guy with a ponytail decided to help Hei Yinghao since he saw that Tang Li Xue already had her little wind elemental spirit helping her on facing the smiling guy with ck and white hair.
The blue-haired chubby guy used his divine ability to create a barrier to save Hei Yinghao from the rapid bombardment of the terrifying purple lightning bolt.
Although the barrier made by the blue-haired chubby guy could only withstand one or two attacks of the terrifying purple lightning bolt, but he could rapidly create several barriers at once to defend against the non-stop terrifying purple lightning bolt, giving Hei Yinghao enough time to breathes and began to counterattack.
ording to Tang Li Xue''s system, Hei Yinghao''s qualification was actually higher than the arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair, but he only evolved to [Rare] grade beast just recently.
So, it made sense that he certainly could not control his two new divine abilities as good as the arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair that already evolved into [Rare] grade beast since who knew how long.
Bing Yi''s case was also the same as Hei Yinghao''s case.
Bing Yi actually has equal qualifications with her big sister, Bing Shui.
But Bing Shui already evolved to [Rare] grade beast long before Bing Yi, so her control over her divine abilities was several levels higher than Bing Yi.
Moreover, both Bing Yi and Bing Shui were wielding ice-type divine abilities, so it made the difference between them could be seen more clearly.
Thankfully, the two foxes from Mogui''s team were helping them right now. Although they still definitely could not win against Bing Shui''s team, but at least, it would buy them enough time to defend themselves from getting harmed by Bing Shui''s team for now.
¡..
¡
.
Just when the smiling guy with ck and white hair wanted to attack Tang Li Xue from behind, Tang Li Xue suddenly activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned her perfect copy out.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy appeared out of nothing so suddenly, and she pouched toward the smiling guy with ck and white hair.
The smiling guy with ck and white hair was so shocked when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suddenly appeared right in front of him, so he did not have any time to react when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was thrusting her palm that was coated with silver light toward his face.
[Moonlight sh]!
After Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Splitter] evolved into [Moonlight sh], it instantly became Tang Li Xue''s fastest skill among the other skills she has, which could perfectly be used for sneak attack or assassination.
When the fingertip of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy almost pierced the chest of the guy with ck and white hair and made a gaping hole there, he already swiftly activated his skill to switched ce again with his sharpened fang.
CLAAAAAANGGGG~!!!
The [Moonlight sh] from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only managed to sh with his sharpened fang and made it flew several tens of meters backward, but the sharpened fang immediately flew again toward Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy.
Meanwhile, Yaya who still sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head already twirled the tip of her finger and pointing it toward the guy with ck and white hair.
Under Yaya''s perfect control over surrounding air and wind, it waspressed into several tens of air bullets in an instant and shot toward the guy with ck and white hair.
[High-Pressure Air Bullet]!
But the guy with ck and white hair switched ce with his sharpened fang again before Yaya''s [High-Pressure Air Bullet] could hit him.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy already predicted his move one step ahead, and both of them already threw a kick toward the sharpened fang right before the guy with ck and white hair switched ce with it!
The guy with ck and white hair did not hesitate to throw a powerful sharp kick to meet with the kick from Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy.
BBBBAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGGG~!!!
Unexpectedly, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were the ones who got thrown off backward whilst spun several times on mid-air under the powerful kick from the guy with ck and white hair.
Even after their feetnded on the ground, they were still forced to take several steps backward, and their foot was really painful as if the bones of their foot were almost shattered by the powerful kick from the guy with ck and white hair.
''What a monster is he?! How could his kick is so powerful?!'' Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy eximed in surprise.
"Ha¡AHAHAHAHAHA¡ This is so fun~!!! This is so exciting~!!! Come on~! Let''s y again~!!! This time, let''s add it to four to make it more fun~!" The guy with ck and white hairughed maniacally while he took out another three sharpened fangs.
Four sharpened fangs were mysteriously floating above him and ready to fly toward Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy again.
The expression of Yaya, Tang Li Xue, and her perfect copy turned more solemn.
Even Tang Li Xue already faced so much difficulty in facing this guy with ck and white hair when he only used one sharpened fang.
If he added three more sharpened fangs, and he could swapping ce anytime anywhere with all of the sharpened fangs¡ Tang Li Xue found it really hard to imagine how she could defeat him.
The guy with ck and white hair was smiling with a sinister expression as he waved his hand toward Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy, then the four sharpened fangs, which floating above his head, were swiftly shot toward them at the same time, but¡
"STOP RIGHT THERE!!!"
Then all of a sudden, the terrifying heavy pressure pressed down onto all of them at once!
All the people from Tang Li Xue''s team and Mogui''s team fell on their knees and grimaced in pain.
Even the blood in their body was ring up. They might cough out a few mouthfuls of blood if they did not try their hardest to resist it.
As for Bing Shui''s team, their pride did not allow them to kneel down like the others, so they decided to use all of their strength to resist it.
It could be easily imagined how much pain they had felt right now in order to resist the terrifying heavy pressure from their grimaced expression.
All of their faces already turnedpletely red, and it almost turned purple, but they still refused to kneel.
Thankfully, the elder who stopped them from fighting each other did not have any intention to embarrass them or harm them at all, so that elder did not increase the terrifying heavy pressure further.
"I am sure all of you already know that it is strictly forbidden to fight anywhere inside Myriad Foxes Academy except in the Battle Arena or Training Room. Let alone the public ce like here!"
The voice they heard was very archaic, so it was hard to determine the gender of the one who speaks, but there was no doubt that fox was certainly very powerful.
"We¡ we are very sorry, elder¡" Everyone, including Bing Shui''s team, apologized to the elder who spoke to them in unison.
Bing Shui''s team might be very arrogant, but they were not a bunch of fools. They knew their own limitation, especially when they were facing a super-powerful elder like this one.
"Who among you all that attacked first?" The elder asked again with a stern tone.
Tang Li Xue''s team and Mogui''s team immediately raised their index finger, then pointed at the arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair at the same time.
The guy with curling purple hair might be too arrogant, unreasonable, and overbearing, but he was not a coward nor a liar.
"It is me who attacked first. Elder, you can punish me if you want to." The guy with curling purple hair said without any fear in his purple eyes.
Even Tang Li Xue started to admire this guy with curling purple hair a bit.
Rather than that hateful smiling guy with ck and white hair, Tang Li Xue liked this guy with curling purple hair a bit more.
Arrogant and self-confident were the two sides of the same coin after all.
The guy with curling purple hair has a lot of confidence in his own abilities, so he has the right to be arrogant.
He was surely different from the brainless young masters or viins who were extremely arrogant but have nothing to be proud of, like in the many novels that Tang Li Xue had already read in her previous life.
In the end, the elder imposed a quite harsh penalty on that guy with curling purple hair and his team.
100,000 Credits per fox!
So, Bing Shui''s team was penalized to pay 300,000 Credits in total.
That was quite hurt since even Tang Li Xue only has a bit more than 300,000 Credits in her savings.
Of course, Tang Li Xue''s team and Mogui''s team also got penalized by that elder, but they only need to pay 30,000 Credits per fox, so it was 90,000 Credits per team.
It was still quite hurt for them, but at least, they only need to pay less than a third of Bing Shui''s team.
Bing Shui''s team and Mogui''s team quickly left there after they paid their penalty, but Tang Li Xue''s team still decided to wait patiently for Instructor Mei Lan to finish her business at Mission Hall.
From the start to finish, no one had seen the real appearance of the elder that scolded them all, but no one also dared to ask about it too.
¡..
¡
.
"You are quite heartless to your students as always, huh¡ Teacher Lan~!" The voluptuous blonde beauty giggled at Instructor Mei Lan who stood right beside her after she scolded and penalized Tang Li Xue and the others.
"Rong Jie, you know too, right? I do not want my students to be too arrogant after they help meplete two hard missions in a row. Rather than advising or scolding them, this kind of stuff works the best to motivate them and erase their arrogance at once." Instructor Mei Lanughed while replied to the voluptuous blonde beauty with a yful tone.
Yes, the elder who scolded Tang Li Xue and the others before was actually Rong Jie, one of the top ten experts in this Myriad Foxes Academy of Lightwind Branch.
Chapter 404: Two Options for Tang Li Xue!
Chapter 404: Two Options for Tang Li Xue!
With Rong Jie''s strength, she already sensed the battle between Tang Li Xue''s team and Bing Shui''s team from the very start, and she could stop them anytime she wants.
Actually, she wanted to stop them from fighting and scold them a lot earlier, but Instructor Mei Lan asked for Rong Jie''s help to let her students ying around for a while against Bing Shui''s team since Instructor Mei Lan wanted to let her students have more sense of urgency to be stronger.
Moreover, the structure of Bing Shui''s team was almost identical to Tang Li Xue''s team since both teams did not have any healer or tanker.
Bing Shui have almost identical divine abilities with Bing Yi, both of them held the semi-support role in their respective team, and their role was to harass their opponent by freezing them, they could even create the ice wall to defend their team from attack, or hurl ice javelin toward their opponent.
But obviously, Bing Shui could do her role as semi-support much better than Bing Yi. Not only she has much better control over her divine abilities than Bing Yi, but she was also an Inscriptionist on top of that!
While Hei Yinghao and the arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair also held the same role as DPS (the person who responsible for dealing high amounts of damage to their enemies) in their respective team.
But again, the arrogant-looking guy with curling purple hair was clearly much better than Hei Yinghao in doing his role as DPS.
His purple lightning was not only terrifyingly powerful, but it also has high lethality and high defense pration ability, and it could even paralyze anyone who got hit by it for a while.
Even Mogui with his high defense divine ability was defeated in one move by him!
Meanwhile, both Tang Li Xue and the smiling guy with ck and white hair were holding the assassin role.
Their job was to weaken or take down any opponent who let down their guard with a sudden attack or stealth attack as fast as possible since Tang Li Xue has her [Ethereal Form] while the smiling guy with ck and white hair could switch ce with any of his sharpened fangs.
However, the smiling guy with ck and white hair clearly could do his job better since he seems could wield a lot of his sharpened fangs at once, and he could switch ces with any of them anytime anywhere he wants.
He could use his divine ability to easily dodge any attack, escaping from his enemies, harass his enemies from time to time, and even ambush his enemies anytime anywhere he wants it.
In short, Tang Li Xue''s team waspletely surpassed by Bing Shui''s team in all aspects!
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao sat under the nearby tree to rest while still patiently waiting for Instructor Mei Lan to finish her business in Mission Hall.
Tang Li Xue was currently patting Yaya''s tiny head to calm her down since Yaya seems to still feel very angry and displeased with the smiling guy with ck and white hair.
Little Loki was unmovingly slept on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder from the very start until now.
It was really a big mystery that it could still stay asleep and did not fall from Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder when Tang Li Xue already somersaulted on mid-air and fought so fiercely against the smiling guy with ck and white hair before.
Well¡ Actually, Little Loki knew what had already happened before, but all of it was nothing more than some groups of children ying around with each other in its eyes.
Little Loki knew very clearly that they would never dare to kill each other inside Myriad Foxes Academy anyway, so there was no need for him to help Tang Li Xue.
Moreover, Little Loki also could not just devour anyone here like what it has done outside Myriad Foxes Academy, and it did not want any elder or higher-up here to get some clues about its identity by doing that.
Currently, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao sat while lowered their head until their forehead touched their knees as if their world was almost copsed.
"Why are you guys look as if you lose all of your money like that? Cheer up! It is not like we lost to them yet. Even if we really lost to them, so what?! We only need to train harder and be stronger than them soon!" Tang Li Xue tried to cheer them up.
"Little Xue, it is easy for you to say that. You are still in the demonic beast rank, so you do not need to worry so much even if you lost a bit from your opponent since your opponent is already at Beast Lord Rank. But we already reach Beast Lord Rank, and we still lost against them¡ This is really so embarrassing!" Hei Yinghao replied with a frustrating tone.
Bing Yi did not say anything, but she sobbed and nodded to agree with Hei Yinghao''s statement.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and retorted: "You two evolved into Beast Lord Rank just recently, and it was also because of my help while they already evolved into Beast Lord Rank for so long. It all makes sense that you need to put a lot more effort than them if you really want to catch up with them."
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi felt embarrassed when they heard Tang Li Xue''s reasonable words.
"Oh, right¡ Little Xue, why did you face so much difficulty when you faced the guy with ck and white hair? Can you just activated your divine ability and turned invisible, then hit him from behind just like what you usually did?" Bing Yi curiously asked.
Tang Li Xue grimaced as she replied full of grievance: "I want to do it too, but I can''t!"
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi gasped in shock, then asked: "Eh? What? You cannot use your stealth-type divine ability? But¡ why?"
"I don''t know too. But my¡ instinct told me that my situation would get worsened if I used my stealth-type divine ability." Tang Li Xue replied in confusion.
It was Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] that sense something was not right with the attack from the guy with ck and white hair and if she used her [Ethereal Form], then his attack would only strike her harder than usual.
"I am really surprised.? You can even sense something like that now¡ Looks like it is not just your intelligence that has grown."? Instructor Mei Lan chuckled as she approached Tang Li Xue and the others.
"Instructor Lan!" Tang Li Xue, Hei Yinghao, and Bing Yi greeted Instructor Mei Lan in unison.
"That purple-haired boy may be the strongest amongst those three, but the ck-and-white-haired boy is undisputedly the most dangerous one amongst them because of his divine ability, so you should be really careful and never let your guard down the next time you face him." Instructor Mei Lan warned her three students with a stern tone.
"His divine ability is that dangerous? So his divine ability is not only about switching ces with his fangs, right?" Tang Li Xue skeptically asked.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled and said: "Any teacher is prohibited from leaking any information about any student, but I can give you a clue that you may not realize when you are facing him before. Can you feel that his attack became a lot stronger every time he switches ce with his fang?"
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in shock as her brain was catching some inspiration from Instructor Mei Lan''s clue, and he unconsciously blurted out: "That is right! His attack became more and more powerful every time he switched ces with his fang in battle! Switch ce... while increasing the power of his attack... Don''t tell me his attack is imbued with Space elemental?! That was the reason why my [Ethereal Form] will not work against it?!"
"Not bad¡ you are quite capable now. All right, I know that you all already tired and want to go back to sleep. I will distribute your reward ording to your contribution now." Instructor Mei Lan dered to Tang Li Xue and the others.
Tang Li Xue got 300,000 credits as her reward since she was the most meritorious among them.
While Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao only got 100,000 credits each.
Instructor Mei Lan also announced that the three of them must attend her special hellish level training from very early tomorrow until the time for Fox Hunting Festival was being heldter.
Just when Tang Li Xue and the others turned around to head back toward Residential Building, Instructor Mei Lan suddenly called Tang Li Xue: "Little Xue!"
"Eh? Instructor Lan? Do you need something from me?" Tang Li Xue asked in confusion.
"For you, I will give two options for you to choose. You can join in my special training like the others or secretly enter the human''s Inheritance Ground Tablet. Which one do you choose?" Instructor Mei Lan stated to Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression.
"Inheritance Ground Tablet?!" Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao eximed in surprise.
Instructor Mei Lan already mentioned it briefly when they carried their mission in the Imperial Pce of Feng Empire before, but all of them thought that only humans could enter that ce.
"Instructor Lan, we can really enter that ce?" Hei Yinghao asked with sparkling eyes filled with excitement.
He really liked adventuring to unknown ces since before he joined Myriad Foxes Academy, and he still liked it even now.
"The other beasts surely cannot! But I am sure that Little Xue can!" Instructor Mei Lan stated again with confidence.
"Why?! Is that ce really that dangerous? Then Little Xue is better not going there." Bing Yi asked in worry.
"Instructor Lan, in your opinion is it better for me to go there or stay here and training diligently with the others?" Tang Li Xue curiously asked for Instructor Mei Lan''s opinion.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled at their expression and replied to Tang Li Xue''s question in a rxed manner: "In my opinion, you should go to Inheritance Ground Tablet if you want to be stronger in the shortest time possible before Fox Hunting Festival."
"The reason for that is simple. Both Bingbing and Silly Fox just evolved into Beast Lord Rank, and they need to train hard to control their new divine ability more perfectly, but you are different from them. The one you need the most right now is not the control over your divine abilities but the battle experience. A lot of battle experience against all kinds of opponents in many different kinds of situations to broaden your knowledge and horizon." Instructor Mei Lan patiently exined to Tang Li Xue.
Chapter 405: [Moon Shattering Strike]!
Chapter 405: [Moon Shattering Strike]!
"Little Xue, you already have several powerful divine abilities, but your decision-making is still too muchckingpared with the others, and it would be proven to be fatal sooner orter. To be blunt, you are too soft to others, and it frequently makes you hesitant to make any ruthless decision." Instructor Mei Lan criticized Tang Li Xue.
"I am still too soft to others? Really?" Tang Li Xue muttered and thought for a while, but she did not think so and felt that she already ruthless enough.
Both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao nodded in agreement, then muttered: "That is right. Our Little Xue is too soft and kind. But that is also her good point."
Instructor Mei Lan knew what was Tang Li Xue thinking of, so she decided to give a clear example: "When someone attacks you, you always reflexively decided to either dodge it or block it, right? Just like when you are facing that ck-and-white-haired boy. Imagine what will happen if he attacks you after he umted enough Space elemental power by switching ces several times with his fangs?"
"That¡ will be really bad¡" Tang Li Xue was stunned when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
"You should already know by now, right? The only way to fight against that ck-and-white-haired boy is not to either dodge or block his attack but by attacking him head-on. If you created several sharp swords with your divine abilities and used them to attack him with the intention to kill before, that ck-and-white-haired boy would not even be able to get close to you at all." Instructor Mei Lan said with a nonchnt tone as she easily found a way to counter the ck-and-white-haired guy.
Tang Li Xue also realized her weakness.
Both she and the ck-and-white-haired guy knew that they could not kill anyone here, but the viciousness in their attack waspletely on a whole different level.
Tang Li Xue only fought to defend herself, while the ck-and-white-haired guy fought with the intention to cripple Tang Li Xue.
In a real battle, viciousness could frequently be a deciding factor and make the weaker person able to kill the stronger opponent.
"I understand. I will go to Inheritance Ground Tablet." Tang Li Xue had decided and gave her answer to Instructor Mei Lan with a determined tone.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled in satisfaction by Tang Li Xue''s choice and warned her: "That is good! But you must remember that you can only use martial arts in Inheritance Ground Tablet. You must not use all of your divine abilities, battle skills from your bloodline, and even your deep-blue me there."
Tang Li Xue''s body stiffened after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s warning since she could only use [Water Mirage] as her martial art.
"But Instructor Lan, I can only use one defensive martial arts¡" Tang Li Xue replied in hesitation.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes at Tang Li Xue and retorted: "Why do you need to be so perplexed? You can just use your divine ability to copy anyone martial arts there, right?"
Tang Li Xue was taken aback by Instructor Mei Lan''s words and asked again: "But you just said that I cannot use any divine abilities there?"
"Please use your brain for a bit and be more flexible. That is right¡ I said you cannot use all of your divine abilities there. But you can copy any martial arts BEFORE you enter Inheritance Ground Tablet, right? You can even summon out your perfect copy before entered there and let her act as your twin sister." Instructor Mei Lan patiently suggested.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering brightly after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s suggestion, and she pped her forehead toment her stupidity.
"All right, you all can go back now. Little Xue, you cane to my ce along with them very early tomorrow. I will tell you the location of the Inheritance Ground Tablet and how to get there. I will also give two tickets for you, so you can exit and re-enter Myriad Foxes Academyter." Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue and the others.
When Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao turned around and wanted to head back to Residential Building, Instructor Mei Lan suddenly spoke to Tang Li Xue again from behind: "Oh, right¡ I almost forget. You also cannot bring your little friend to Inheritance Ground Tablet since my mother asked you to leave your little friend in her ce starting tomorrow. It seems my mother wants to train her further before the Fox Hunting Festival."
"Oh, I understand." Tang Li Xue nodded to Instructor Mei Lan before she bid her farewell to Instructor Mei Lan.
Yaya, who sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head, put a sour expression and started to throw a tantrum since she wanted to keep staying with Tang Li Xue and did not want to be left behind in Myriad Foxes Academy.
"Yaya, do you forget what that ck-and-white-haired guy and his team said to us before they are leaving?" Tang Li Xue whispered to Yaya with a solemn expression.
The expressions of Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao also turned solemn when they heard Tang Li Xue''s question.
Yes, Bing Shui''s team also left a few words to Tang Li Xue''s team before they were leaving.
They said: "We will meet again at Fox Hunting Festival. I hope you all would get much stronger than now, so all of you will not disappoint uster."
"You say you want to get stronger as soon as possible and help me to defeat that ck-and-white-haired guy, right? Then this is your chance for that! Remember to train harder and do not ck off." Tang Li Xue cheered Yaya as she smiled gently at her and patted her tiny head a few times.
Yaya became fired up and more determined after she heard Tang Li Xue''s cheer. She nodded her tiny head and looked as if she could not wait to train harder and be stronger as soon as possible.
After they went back to Residential Building, Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao impatiently ran to enter the luxurious restaurant on the first floor and ordered their own respective favorite delicacies.
They only left Myriad Foxes Academy for more or less one month to carry out their mission, but they already missed the delicious foods here so badly.
Even Yaya seems to also miss the delicacies here and ate so heartily right now.
Although Tang Li Xue had already taken out some foods here to feed Yaya outside Myriad Foxes Academy, but Yaya seems to like the freshly cooked foods more.
Tang Li Xue started to suspect that Yaya has a space pouch in her stomach since Yaya could eat so many foods or might be even more than Tang Li Xue herself.
After they felt full, and their stomach bloated like a frog. Tang Li Xue and the others decided to go back to their respective room.
Tang Li Xue used her silver card to enter her room, then she brought Yaya and Little Loki straight to the bathroom and took a bath together.
Yaya likes cleanliness, so she did not mind when Tang Li Xue bathed her.
But Little Loki seems to really hate it.
It red at Tang Li Xue and kept squirming ufortably when Tang Li Xue bathed it.
"Oh,e on! You are not a real cat, but a godlike Taotie, aren''t you? So stop struggling and just ept your fate to get bathed by me!" Tang Li Xueughed as she teased Little Loki.
''Presumptuous! The great me is the cleanest amongst all of you! I always use a spell to clean myself every hour, so stop spraying me with that dirty water filled with germs! Ei, Ei, Ei... Stop it... Stop it... I said stop that!'' Little Loki angrily meowed when Tang Li Xue flushed it with the water.
After taking a bath, Tang Li Xue dried out the wet Yaya and Little Loki with the towel, then let them sleep together on the bed.
It only took one or two minutes for them to fell deep asleep, although the two of them seem to already sleep much longer than Tang Li Xue on their way back to Myriad Foxes Academy before.
Tang Li Xue also felt really tired and wanted to sleep with them so badly, but she still has so many things to do before that.
Moreover, she did not have much more time since she might need to go to Inheritance Ground Tablet tomorrow.
Tang Li Xue summoned out her perfect copy. She took out the golden [Inscription Pen] from her system storage and gave it to her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue told her perfect copy to make all of the necessary talismans for them to use at Inheritance Ground Tabletter.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue herself decided to go to the backyard to test the new bloodline skill she managed to get today.
Tang Li Xue faced arge boulder that she specially prepared to test the new bloodline skill, then threw a fist toward it!
[Moon Shattering Strike]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Therge boulder exploded and turned into dust the moment when Tang Li Xue''s fist struck it!
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw and stared at her own fist in shock.
"This new skill is awesome!" Tang Li Xue shouted in surprise and delight.
The [Moon Shattering Strike] was actually a defense prating strike, but the secret behind it was different from [Heaven Splitting Wave] from Asura Demon Sect.
[Heaven Splitting Wave] could multiply the strength of the user''s strike, hit the opponent multiple times, and bypass any defense depending on theyers of the [Heaven Splitting Wave] that the user has mastered.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Shattering Strike] was injecting thepression of her Vitality Energy into the target''s body and made it explode at once from inside out.
[Heaven Splitting Wave] was certainly more powerful and prative once it reached the ninthyer, but Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Shattering Strike] was more lethal and destructive.
"Wait a minute¡ My [Moonlight sh] is the result ofbining martial art and bloodline skill¡ I wonder if this [Moon Shattering Strike] can also bebined with [Heaven Splitting Wave] and make it much stronger?" Tang Li Xue murmured to herself as her topaz blue eyes shone brighter in excitement.
Chapter 406: Departed to Inheritance Ground Tablet!
Chapter 406: Departed to Inheritance Ground Tablet!
"[Heaven Splitting Wave] is the secret martial art from Asura Demon Sect, right? I wonder if that Elder Yang knew about it... or he might even already learn [Heaven Splitting Wave] because he said that he was the former patriarch of Asura Demon Sect before." Tang Li Xue recalled the secret that Elder Yang had told her in the carriage before.
"Former patriarch of Asura Demon Sect? Maybe before I entered Asura Demon Sect since I am sure that I never meet with him inside there before." Tang Li Xue deduced.
But Tang Li Xue suddenly recalled the unknown memories of her and Elder Yang in the cave inside Moonlight Forest, and she frowned deeper.
This problem really nagged her mind, but she could not remember her first meeting with Elder Yang at all.
"Forget it! Since I cannot remember it now, I will think about itter. Who knows if I already remember it by then." Tang Li Xue murmured as she shook her head.
She decided to throw all of those things to the back of her mind and focus on what she needs to do right now.... preparing to depart toward Inheritance Ground Tablet tomorrow.
Tang Li Xue went back to her study room and took out Elder Yang''s spatial ring from inside her clothes.
Tang Li Xue felt embarrassed and ufortable when she stared at Elder Yang''s spatial ring, so she blurted out: "Should I just take it as my spoil of war? Or should I return this to him the next time I meet him?"
"Oh, well¡ I will use what I can use for now and return the rest to him the next time I meet again with himter¡ Of course, only if he asked for me to return it, and only if there is still something left after I used it¡ Uwehehehe¡" Tang Li Xue giggled with a cunning smile on his face.
Although, she already said that, Tang Li Xue still moved the small mountain of Spirit Stones and severalrge chests of gold coins into her space pouch.
She only left all of the expensive-looking things and countless bottles of pills because she did not know the purpose of those things and how to use it properly.
In fact, Tang Li Xue probably would not return it if she knew how to use those things properly and the function of each of those pills.
"Eh, there are several martial art manuals stored here?!" Tang Li Xue took out several old scrolls from Elder Yang''s spatial ring and examined it.
[Imperial Sky Sword Technique]
[Ten Thousand Swords Mystery]
[Ancient Aura Flowing Art]
[Mountain Splitting shes]
¡.
Most of these martial art manuals were about sword martial arts, but Tang Li Xue preferred to fight empty-handed.
It was because Tang Li Xue thought of using martial art not only in his human form but also when she was in her fox form too, and she certainly could not use any weapon such as a sword when she was in her fox form.
"I already copy [Drifting Cloud Palms] and [Crouching Tiger w] in [Transcendence State] from that Immortal Sword Sect''s female disciple anyway. I am quite sure that those martial arts should be enough for me to use in Inheritance Ground Tabletter." Tang Li Xue pondered carefully.
"Besides that, I cannot afford to waste any of my Deity Coins or my time to learn these random martial arts. I only need 80 Deity Coins more toprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]. After that, I would certainly use most of my time to learn it, and I will not have any more time to learn anything else. Not to mention that I still must continue to learn about Inscription." Tang Li Xue muttered in depression as she rubbed her forehead to ease her headache.
"Sigh... So much to learn... but so little time to do it... and here I thought that I can take it easy since I have my perfect copy to do my work..." Tang Li Xueined again.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and decided to train her [Art of Concealment] for a few hours before she decided to take out the Spirit Stones from her space pouch and used them for her cultivation.
A small mountain of Spirit Stones might look like a lot, but most of them were only low-tier Spirit Stones, while only several tens of them were mid-tier Spirit Stones.
Tang Li Xue dly used them one by one to increase her cultivation further.
Without realizing it, the next morning has already arrived, and Tang Li Xue did not even have any free time to sleep until now.
Tang Li Xue woke Yaya and Little Loki up and took them to the bathroom to take a bath together.
After changed her clothes, Tang Li Xue brought Yaya and Little Loki out of her room to meet with Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi.
On contrary to Tang Li Xue''s expectations, Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi actually looked more haggard than the sleepless Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched, and she chided them with a tone filled with worry: "You two... sigh... it looks like you two are still felt bothered by what happened yesterday. Didn''t I already tell you two to not think about it too much? So what if we really lost to them. We only need to train harder and be stronger than them soon."
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi nodded at Tang Li Xue''s words.
"That is why we are training and have sparring matches together for the entire night." Hei Yinghao replied while yawned widely.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and murmured: "With your condition right now, you two will certainly unable toplete today''s training with Instructor Lan."
"Why not?! Our spirits are burning with passion! I am sure we will be able to pass all the training with a perfect score!" Hei Yinghao replied full of confidence.
Tang Li Xue chuckled and exined: "Do you remember what Instructor Lan had told us yesterday? Instructor Lan''s normal training is already a nightmare for us. Moreover, she said that she would give us ''Special Hellish Level'' Training. Could you even dare to imagine the intensity of your training today?"
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi started to shudder in fear and horror, but it was already toote for them to regret it.
Tang Li Xueughed and scared them about it several times when they were heading together to Instructor Mei Lan''s ce behind Education Department Building.
On the midway, Tang Li Xue bid her farewell to Yaya since Yaya would attend special training at the ce of Instructor Mei Lan''s mother from now on until Foxes Hunting Festival.
Tang Li Xue would certainly miss Yaya since Yaya was usually always with her every day, but she did not worry about Yaya at all since Instructor Mei Lan''s mother was spoiling Yaya very much with so many nutritious and delicious snacks and foods.
In fact, even Instructor Mei Lan sometimesined to Tang Li Xue that her mother was actually treating Yaya better than Instructor Mei Lan herself as her mother''s biological daughter.
But usually, her mother only replied that Instructor Mei Lan had already grown up so old, while Yaya was still a few months baby, so Yaya needs mother''s love more than the current Instructor Mei Lan.
"Sigh¡ I feel a bit lonely without Yaya. Little Loki¡ there are only the two of us right now. Let''s do our best from now on!" Tang Li Xue said as she hugged Little Loki tightly in her embrace.
"Nyaa~!" As if trying tofort Tang Li Xue, Little Loki licked her fingers a few times and lied down quietly in her embrace.
After Tang Li Xue and the others arrived at Instructor Mei Lan''s ce, Instructor Mei Lan let Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao entered the training ground first, while she exined about Inheritance Ground Tablet more clearly to Tang Li Xue.
"Inheritance Ground Tablet is the name of a ce, but it is not really a ce." Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue a confusing sentence.
Instructor Mei Lan giggled when she saw Tang Li Xue''s confused expression.
Instructor Mei Lan gave a map of Inheritance Ground Tablet''s location and two golden tickets to Tang Li Xue, then she told Tang Li Xue to open the map.
"As you can see from the map, the name of the ce you should go is Cang Yuan Mountain. At the top of Cang Yuan Mountain, you can find arge stone tablet, and the name of that tablet is Inheritance Ground Tablet." Instructor Mei Lan patiently started exining to Tang Li Xue.
"There is a sealed space inside Inheritance Ground Tablet that will only open once every five years, and only the human cultivators under Foundation Establishment Stage can enter there. But you must be careful since they can breakthrough into Foundation Establishment Stage AFTER they enter Inheritance Ground Tablet."
"The purpose of that ce is to test the martial art prowess of the cultivators, so all of the people would need to undergo many trials after they enter there, and every time they pass a trial, they will get a reward. It is easy to understand, right?"
"In short, there are countless Ancient Inheritances inside Inheritance Ground Tablet, and all you need to do after you enter there is to find as many Inheritance Buildings as you can and pass all the trials there to get all the cultivation resources and empty those Inheritance Buildings. Your time inside Inheritance Ground Tablet is only one month, so use it carefully."
"After you are forced out from Inheritance Ground Tablet one monthter, go back to Myriad Foxes Academy as soon as you can since Foxes Hunting Festival is only one or two weeks away after that. Do you understand?" Instructor Mei Lan concluded her long exnation and asked Tang Li Xue with a stern tone.
Chapter 407: Get into Trouble!
Chapter 407: Get into Trouble!
"I understand about that, but... Instructor Lan, there is something that I still do not get it. Why can''t I use my me of Pride there? Aren''t there quite many humans that assimted with the elemental spirits?" Tang Li Xue asked in confusion.
"You can actually use your High-Ranking me there, but it would be better if you do not use it at all. Ourst two missions draw too much unwanted attention, and I am quite sure many people already saw your deep-blue me since it was so easy to recognize. You should never underestimate your High-Ranking me elemental spirit''s attraction and the greediness of the Human Race." Instructor Mei Lan answered Tang Li Xue''s doubt.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned solemn when she understood Instructor Mei Lan''s meaning, and she nodded her head at Instructor Mei Lan.
In short, Instructor Mei Lan did not want Tang Li Xue to get hunted by many powerful humans after she was forced out from Inheritance Ground Tablet one monthter.
Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride even managed to attract the true Crown Prince Feng''s greed before, and he almost made a move to abduct Tang Li Xue to extract out the me of Pride from her, even though Tang Li Xue was still under Elder Yang''s protection at that time.
Unfortunately, Zuo Hongzhuang slew the true Crown Prince Feng first before he could carry out his n to abduct Tang Li Xue, then let her daughter disguised as him.
Those young disciples might not be able to match Tang Li Xue or catch her, but there would definitely many powerful cultivators that came to Cang Yuan Mountainter.
Although powerful cultivators could not enter Inheritance Ground Tablet, but their job was to escort and guard the safety of the important disciples of their sect.
Instructor Mei Lan did not want Tang Li Xue besieged by these powerful cultivators on her way back to Myriad Foxes Academy one monthter that was the reason why she forbid Tang Li Xue from using her me of Pride in Inheritance Ground Tablet.
After she got all the crucial information from Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue bid her farewell to Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao, then heading to the space gate hall.
After Tang Li Xue was gone from there, Instructor Mei Lan giggled mischievously.
It was true that she already told almost all of the crucial information to Tang Li Xue¡ Yes, it was ALMOST, not ALL.
Instructor Mei Lan wanted to test Tang Li Xue''s skill as an inspector, so she purposely omitted several parts of crucial information.
Anyway, it was not a bad experience even if Tang Li Xue failed to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet. She could stille back to Myriad Foxes Academy again, albeit with empty hands¡
At least, she would get an important lesson, right? An important lesson to never 100% believed in the information she got because sometimes the information could be wrong, changed, or iplete depending on the change of the situation after they came into the scene to carry out the mission.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao already trembled in fright when they saw Instructor Mei Lan''s mysterious giggle.
It was a really bad omen because there would definitely be something bad that happened to them every time Instructor Mei Lan giggled like that.
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue did not know about all of that.
Currently, she already entered the space gate hall with Little Loki.
Tang Li Xue took out a ck cloak from her space pouch and wore it to cover her fox ears and foxtail before she jumped onto one of the giant stone rings.
When Tang Li Xue tore the gold ticket in her hand, the space in front of her split in two and showed the lush forest scenery.
Tang Li Xue walked out from the giant stone rings and entered the lush forest.
She let her white Wind Riding Bird out from her Medium-Rank Space Pouch and feed it a few Spirit Dew Cucumbers.
"KEAAAK~! KEEEAAK~!" The white Wind Riding Bird chirped in delight and snuggled its head to Tang Li Xue''s warm embrace.
Little Loki, who lied down on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder like usual, red at the white Wind Riding Bird in displeasure.
How could the white Wind Riding Bird withstood the frightening aura of Taotie? The white Wind Riding Bird hastily withdrew its head while shivered in fear.
Tang Li Xue did not notice it at all as she quickly mounted onto the white Wind Riding Bird''s back and told it to fly toward the direction shown on the map.
Cang Yuan Mountain was quite far away from the lush forest where Tang Li Xue appeared after she passed the Myriad Foxes Academy''s space gate.
Even though Tang Li Xue rode on the very fast Wind Riding Bird, but it would probably take a few days for her to arrive at Cang Yuan Mountain.
Although the Wind Riding Bird from Myriad Foxes Academy already trained to be very tenacious and could fly for one week non-stop, but Tang Li Xue did not want to push her white Wind Riding Bird that far, so she usually let it rest for a few hours every day and feed it a few Spirit Dew Cucumbers regrly.
It could be said that Tang Li Xue''s journey was very smooth, but she did not realize that it was actually because Little Loki intentionally helped her by letting a sliver of its terrifying aura intimidate the nearby beasts so they did not dare to approach them.
Of course, she still sometimes met with a group of bandits or robbers on her way, but Little Loki let Tang Li Xue deal with them by herself.
They were not that strong anyway, and Tang Li Xue could easily defeat them.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue could use that chance to practice using the Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palms] and [Crouching Tiger w] so she could use it smoother in Inheritance Ground Tabletter.
After three days of heading to Cang Yuan Mountain, Tang Li Xue realized that there were so many cultivators that were heading in the same direction as her right now.
Many male cultivators even tried to flirt with her and invited her to join their group since they saw her alone.
Tang Li Xue refused all of their invites and ignored their ttery and sweet talk.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not know that the more she tried to reject them and act cold to them, the more they would be attracted to her.
Furthermore, they could guess that Tang Li Xue was a super beauty even though she wore a fox mask to cover her face because they could still see her pinkish lips, slender perfect figure, smooth white skin like porcin, and her silky silver long hair.
In fact, by covering her face with a fox mask, Tang Li Xue only made them more curious about her extremely beautiful face.
Some shameless perverted ones even dared to try to touch Tang Li Xue and forced her to follow him, and Tang Li Xue immediately taught him a harsh lesson on the spot without any hesitation.
Tang Li Xue purposely beat those shameless perverted people harder since she hoped that her martial prowess would scare the other males away so they would stop annoy her anymore.
But she forgot that this Immortal World was not her previous world!
On the contrary to her previous world, the greater the cultivation level of the female, the more men would admire her in this Immortal World.
Actually, almost all the men in Immortal World would prefer the average-looking girl with high cultivation, rather than an extremely beautiful girl with low cultivation.
There were many reasons why they choose it that way.
The first reason and most important reason, the men with high cultivation usually could not control their strength when they were having¡ intercourse with their mate, so if their mate cultivation was too low, they might identally hurt or even kill her while they were doing the deed.
The second reason was longevity. The high-level cultivators would aging much slower and could easily live up to hundreds or even thousands of years without any problem, while the low-level cultivators would aging much faster and could only live one hundred years at maximum.
There were many other reasons, but these two reasons were already more than enough to make the talented young men think twice before choosing a partner with low cultivation.
As for an extremely beautiful girl with high cultivation like Tang Li Xue, she was a dream for any man.
But Tang Li Xue still did not get about all of these at all since she never has any rtionship with other men than her big brother in her previous life.
Even in this life, her male friends could be counted in one hand.
Of course, the most shameless ones that kept trying to court her were only Hei Yinghao and Elder Yang.
But even these two looked not that shameless anymore right now in Tang Li Xue''s eyes.
At least, these two still knew their limit and did not try to grope her like these shameless perverted here.
She pondered in confusion: ''This is really strange¡ Why the hell do those people keeping to me?! I already went out twice from Myriad Foxes Academy to carry out the mission in my human form before, but why have I not encountered something like this before?''
After thinking for a while, Tang Li Xue concluded that it might be because she was traveling alone right now, so she decided to summon out her perfect copy to apany her.
Chapter 408: Elder Yangs fiancée?!
Chapter 408: Elder Yang''s fianc¨¦e?!
"From now on, you will be the one who deals with all of those annoying men that try to approach us." Tang Li Xue told her perfect copy about her task after she activated [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned her out.
Actually, there was no need for Tang Li Xue to tell what her perfect copy needs to do since her perfect copy already knew it.
Their minds were still connected with each other after all, even though they were in two different bodies.
But it was just Tang Li Xue''s habit since she prefers to treat her perfect copy as apanion rather than a part of herself or her tool.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes andined: "Why does it have to be me? Can''t you just deal with them by yourself? Don''t tell me that you cannot even handle them by yourself?"
Some people might confuse by the reason why Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were sometimes chatting with each other like this.
It was because Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was not a clone without any feeling like Huang Hao''s shadow clones or Yaya''s wind clones that their only purpose was to distract and confuse the enemies.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy has her own personality and mind. She could get angry, disappointed, happy, sad, and so on.
In short, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy is the second Tang Li Xue.
Her mindset and personality were perfectly identical to the real Tang Li Xue and their mind was connected with each other since she was the ''perfect copy'' of the real Tang Li Xue.
But her perfect copy''s ''feeling'' might not be the same as the real Tang Li Xue!
For example, when Tang Li Xue ordered her perfect copy to work on something while she was beingzy herself, then there was a high chance that her perfect copy would get angry or displeased toward her.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue herself was always behaving quite well, so her perfect copy was also behaving like that.
Imagine if the person who did use the [Twin Moons] divine ability was azy, selfish, short-tempered, or vicious person, then that person''s perfect copy would also behaving identically to that person.
With their bad personality, there might even a high chance that person and his perfect copy to fight or kill each other.
If that person was a coward and did not dare to fight anyone, then his perfect copy would be identical to him andpletely useless in the fight too.
This was actually the biggest weakness of Tang Li Xue''s [Twin Moons] divine ability.
"Hei, I already deal with them by myself from yesterday! I even already beat up a few of them! So, today is your turn!" Tang Li Xue scold back her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still felt unwilling since she felt it was too troublesome, but she still decided to ept her task.
"You do not need to worry. We will arrive at Cang Yuan Mountain in two days. We probably do not need to deal with them anymore after we enter Inheritance Ground Tabletter." Tang Li Xue tried tofort her perfect copy in the end.
After that, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy started to travel together toward Cang Yuan Mountain.
There were actually more men who tried to approach and flirt with them on their way, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy skilfully drove all of them away by saying that she and her real self was actually a pair of sweethearts or lovers, and they hated men very much.
The real Tang Li Xue, who currently embraced Little Loki while drank the water from the leather bag, almost choked herself when she heard it.
Strangely, the method of her perfect copy was quite effective to drive away most of them.
Of course, there were still some shameless and perverted ones that got more excited instead when they heard it and tried harder to approach them instead, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only need to beat them up to kick them away.
"They are really annoying! Why don''t we just use [Ethereal Form] to avoid them?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked.
"You already knew the reason anyway, so why do you even need to ask? Sigh¡ I do not want us to depend too much on our divine abilities. Especially since we cannot even use them in Inheritance Ground Tabletter. If we identally used our divine abilities in reflex inside there, the situation would turn bad for us." The real Tang Li Xue replied.
"Sigh¡ Forget it. Chatting between ourselves is really not fun since we already knew what was in each other minds beforehand. Compared to you, chatting with Elder Yang feels not bad at all. I wonder what is he doing right now? Would hee to Cang Yuan Mountain to escort the disciples from Immortal Sword Sect?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy murmured as she started to think about Elder Yang.
The real Tang Li Xue put a disgusted expression, but she has the same mindset as her perfect copy after all.
Since her perfect copy was curious about that, then it means the real Tang Li Xue also felt curious about it, especially after she recalled the scene between her and Elder Yang inside the cave in Moonlight Forest from her mind.
¡..

.
At Immortal Sword Sect, on the top of Supreme Sword Peak, there was a big luxurious pce where the Immortal Sword Sect''s Patriarch lived in.
Currently, the old Patriarch was having a chat with his most beloved great-granddaughter.
The old Patriarch might have very high cultivation and looked very imposing to others, but in front of his most beloved great-granddaughter, he was only a kind and gentle grandfather who kept spoiling his great-granddaughter.
"What?! 1st Grandpa, you want to send Yangyang to escort our disciple to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet?" The great-granddaughter shouted in shock and puffed her cheek cutely in resentment.
The great-granddaughter of Immortal Sword Sect''s Patriarch was called Rongrong.
She wore a beautiful light blue dress and a matching armor set that made her looked heroic and elegant at the same time.
Rongrong was very beautiful for a human standard like a supermodel in Tang Li Xue''s previous world, but of course, her beauty was still below Fox Race standard as the most beautiful race.
"Rongrong, Elder Yang may be your fiancee and future husband, but he is also the future Patriarch of Immortal Sword Sect." The old Patriarch patientlyforted her most beloved great-granddaughter, Rongrong.
"I know about that, but you already send him to Tang Feng City five days ago! Why do you must send him again in this task? You can just give it to the other elders! Most of them have nothing to do and dilly-dally around every day anyway!" Rongrong bluntly said.
"Those elders already too old to do anything important, but Elder Yang is different. He is still so young, so there are still many things for him to learn. You must understand his position." The old Patriarch praised Elder Yang a bit to appease Rongrong since he knew that this great-granddaughter was crazy with Elder Yang.
Then the old Patriarch finally told his real reason to Rongrong: "Besides that, Elder Yang''s failure in Tang Feng City made several elders feel that Elder Yang is still unprepared and too young to hold the title of Young Patriarch''s candidate, so they even ask me to revoke his title. They even ask me to punish him quite harshly as a lesson for him."
"By giving this task to him, I can make him stay away from Immortal Sword Sect for one month, then use that time to appease those elders so they could change their mind and made them forget about his failure." The old Patriarch concluded his exnation.
But Rongrong was already extremely pampered since a child, so she was always unreasonable and would never change her mind once she decided on something.
"I do not want to know, and I do not care! I have never spent my time with Yangyang anymore since two months ago, so I want Yangyang to keep apany me for one month before he can go and do his job!" Rongrong insisted while pouted at her great-grandfather.
The old Patriarch rubbed his forehead that filled with wrinkles to ease his headache, but he really could not make up his mind to reject this naughty great-granddaughter''s wish.
The old Patriarch finally yielded and said: "All right, I will punish his failure at Tang Feng City by ordering him to copy 10,000 martial art manuals in the library. You can apany him while he is doing that and even bring him some tea and snack to chat with him. How about that?"
"Yay, 1st Granpa is really the best! Rongrong love 1st Granpa the best!" Rongrong shouted in excitement and jumped toward the old Patriarch, then repeatedly kissed his cheek.
"Don''t be too happy about it. Just so you know, doing it in this way will hurt his prestige in front of the Elders and disciples, since everyone could see that I stand up for him too much." The old Patriarch scolded Rongrong a bit.
"So what?! He can still gain his prestige again easily. He is still young after all. When my Yangyang breakthrough from the Core Formation Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage, I want to see if those old elders still dare to say anything." Rongrong dered while yfully sticking out her tongue.
Chapter 409: Elder Yangs Circumstances!
Chapter 409: Elder Yang''s Circumstances!
After Rongrong persuaded the old Patriarch, the old Patriarch decided to call Elder Yang and announced his punishment for the failed mission in Tang Feng City.
Actually, no one cares really about how many people died in Tang Feng City or the massacre of the Feng Royal Family in the Immortal Sword Sect.
The Emperor of Feng Empire and the Feng Royal Family might look impressive in eyes of the normal civilians or the normal people, but they were nothing more than a group of puppets for the Immortal Sword Sect.
They could be easily reced anytime by Immortal Sword Sect.
If the Feng Emperor or his Feng Royal Family dared to disobey Immortal Sword Sect or they looked unpleasant in the eyes of Immortal Sword Sect''s Patriarch, the old Patriarch could easily wipe out all of them in an instant and put another person and family, then stick the name of ''Feng Emperor'' and ''Feng Royal Family'' to them.
All of those people might be receable, but Elder Yang should at least caught all the culprits of those massacre incidents and brought them back to Immortal Sword Sect, so the Patriarch and the Elders from Immortal Sword Sect could punish and torment the culprits in front of the mass to warn anyone who dares to challenge Immortal Sword Sect''s authority.
Unfortunately, Elder Yang failed to catch the culprits of those incidents, and it would certainly ruin the Immortal Sword Sect''s prestige to some extent.
It was the same as the police department in Tang Li Xue''s previous world that failed to catch the serial killer after he killed so many people, and it would certainly make the citizens lost some trust in the police department.
If even the citizens lost their trust in the police department, then it also means many criminals would dare to do misdeed openly since they were no longer afraid of the police department.
Moreover, Immortal Sword Sect already took 70% to 80% of all their vassals'' cultivation resources under the pretext to guarantee their safety even from Feng Empire''s subjugation.
So, Immortal Sword Sect should at least do something to make them feel safe and protected, right?
If Immortal Sword Sect lost its prestige in front of these vassals, no one could tell if they would band together to oppose Immortal Sword Sectter.
Those were the reasons why quite many of the elders from the Immortal Sword Sect stated that Elder Yang was still too young and unfit yet to be the candidate of Immortal Sword Sect''s young Patriarch.
Of course, it was also because those elders have hidden motives like they already supported the other people to take Patriarch position and only used Elder Yang''s first failure to kick him when he was down.
Elder Yang was not the only one that was a genius in Lightwind Continent after all.
There were many others geniuses that Immortal Sword Sect already nurtured since they were very young to take the role of the future young Patriarch.
All of those young geniuses possessed their own superiority over others.
Rainbow Radiant Physique, Sword Heart Intent, Yin and Yang Eyes, Golden Sun Daoist Physique, and so on.
There were also several middle-aged elders that have high ambition and already nned to take the throne of the Immortal Sword Sect''s Patriarch a long time ago.
Thepetition for the Patriarch''s Crown of the strongest sect in Lightwind Continent was actually very fierce and cruel beyond anyone''s imagination.
Compared to reality, the novels and movies that Tang Li Xue had read and seen in her previous life were nothing more than the child''s tales.
But despite all of their best efforts and the amount of blood they had been spilled until now, the most beloved great-granddaughter suddenly brought back a man one day, and the old Patriarch crowned him as the young Patriarch of Immortal Sword Sect one monthter.
Even though they already acknowledged Elder Yang''s talent in cultivation after they saw his cultivation level, but not all of them could just simply ept that he was really better or superior to them.
Those people started to look for observing everything Elder Yang do and trying to find his weakness, but Elder Yang was simply too perfect for them to topple.
Of course, Elder Yang was not actually that perfect, but he was the former young Patriarch from Asura Demon Sect after all.
With his rich experience as the former young Patriarch of the Asura Demon Sect, he could easily avoid making any mistake and appear to look perfect in front of others.
He was very sure that these people from the virtuous sect could never match the level of cunningness of his uncle, Mo Chonglin.
Meanwhile, Elder Yang himself could stand on equal ground without losing to Mo Chonglin for several years despite hisck of experience and support. It was already more than enough to show his high IQ and peerless talent.
Right now, Elder Yang received his punishment to copy 10,000 martial art manuals in the library from the old Patriarch withoutining.
The old Patriarch looked that Elder Yang seems gloomy and down, so he tried to encourage him a bit: "You do not need to feel so frustrated about this. One or two failures arepletely normal since it means that you still have something to learn. It is good enough to know your mistake and try to fix it as soon as possible."
Elder Yang bowed his head a bit and politely saluted to old Patriarch: "I understand. Patriarch, thank you for your advice and leniency."
The old Patriarch waved his hand and told Elder Yang, then drove him out from the room: "All right, you can go to the library right now to receive your punishment. Oh, Rongrong seems to really miss you. You can go to meet her first before you go to the library."
After went out from the old Patriarch''s ce, Elder Yang sighed.
Of course, he did not sigh or felt down because of his failure in Tang Feng City like what the old Patriarch had thought.
Elder Yang felt gloomy because he was trapped in this current situation because of his urge to avenge the death of Xiao Bai and his father.
But right now, his Xiao Bai was still alive, and his urge for revenge diminished greatly.
It was not like that he did not want to avenge his father, but he did not even that close to his father.
Elder Yang''s father was always busy taking care of the sect, raising his cultivation, and training his martial arts.
He even rarely interacted with Elder Yang when Elder Yang was still a little child. Nor did he ever have time to celebrate Elder Yang''s birthday before.
Elder Yang doubted that his father even knew his birthday, or maybe his father simply did not care about it at all.
It was a sad truth, but Elder Yang''s feeling for his father was actually much lesser than his feeling for his Xiao Bai.
Blinded by extreme hatred to Mo Chonglin and his urge to avenge his Xiao Bai''s death, Elder Yang deliberately leaked the information about the most beloved great-granddaughter of Immortal Sword Sect''s old Patriarch that secretly sneaked out from the Immortal Sword Sect and came to sightseeing in Tang Feng City.
This information attracted the attention of all the Immortal Sword Sect''s enemies for sure, especially the fellow from four evil sects.
Elder Yang actually managed to get this information after exhausted so many efforts, resources, and manpower.
At first, he nned to abduct Rongrong and used her to threaten Immortal Sword Sect when he was still the Young Patriarch from Asura Demon Sect.
But after he was kicked out from Asura Demon Sect, he changed his mind and used this information to bait the people from four evil sects to attack Rongrong, then at the most crucial moment, he suddenly appeared and saved Rongrong from those people.
His handsome appearance, his high cultivation, and his heroic bearing managed to make Rongrong fell madly in love with him at the first sight.
Then Elder Yang cleverly used Rongrong''s adoration to him and managed to persuade her to bring him back to Immortal Sword Sect.
Through his connection with Rongrong, Elder Yang also managed to forge the connection with the old Patriarch, Rongrong''s parents, and many important higher-ups in the Immortal Sword Sect which finally awarded him the title of Young Patriarch Candidate.
Of course, those people did not give that position for free! How could they give such an important position to a new outsider like Elder Yang?!
The answer for that was because Elder Yang already engaged Rongrong first before he got that position.
The old Patriarch, Rongrong''s parents, and many other people actually opposed this at first, but Rongrong was already madly in love with Elder Yang that she already almost lost her mind.
She even threatened tomit suicide if her parents, the old Patriarch, and the other elders dared to oppose their rtionship.
Of course, Elder Yang also acted as if he was madly in love with Rongrong too at that time.
He even expressed that he was willing to die together with Rongrong if their rtionship was not approved by Rongrong''s parents, the old Patriarch, and the other elders.
Elder Yang''s statement fueled Rongrong''s madness to the point that she really almostmitted suicide.
Finally, Rongrong''s parents, the old Patriarch, and the other elders did not have any other choice and decided to approve their rtionship.
Thankfully, Elder Yang was not useless trash that could only be a leech to Rongrong.
Because he was very talented and have really high cultivation at his young age, the old Patriarch also decided to push him to be the candidate of Young Patriarch.
Elder yang was actually quite close to his objective of using the Immortal Sword Sect to destroy the Asura Demon Sect, but after he managed to find out the fact that his Xiao Bai was actually still alive, he suddenly felt that he was making a big mistake.
Yes, his biggest mistake was that he already engaged with Rongrong, and Rongrong was fall madly in love with him to the point that she could no longer live without him.
It was in his n to make Rongrong like that at first, but he was regretting it very much now.
With Rongrong fell in love so deeply with him like that, how could he approach his Xiao Bai too right now?
So what if he managed to get close with his Xiao Bai? What he would do then? Marry her?
Would Rongrong kind enough to even let him approach any other girl beside her?
Of course, Elder Yang really wanted to cancel his engagement with Rongrong so badly, but how could he do it so easily after he was already gone this far?!
Rongrong''s parents, the old Patriarch, and all the elders from Immortal Sword Sect would certainly skin him alive if he dared to even mention it.
Chapter 410: Incoming Menace!
Chapter 410: Iing Menace!
Even Elder Yang could hardly believe that a smart person like him could get trapped in his own deed like now.
But it really could not be helped since he was blinded by extreme hatred at that time, and he already prepared to sacrifice everything, even his own life to take revenge on Mo Chonglin and his cruel grandfather.
Elder Yang sighed with a heavy heart while pondered his next future movement carefully: ''If I just run away from Immortal Sword Sect, I will be a fugitive of both Asura Demon Sect and Immortal Sword Sect.''
''No, that is the most stupid move. Asura Demon Sect could not bepared to Immortal Sword Sect at all. It is still fine to be a fugitive of Asura Demon Sect, but be a fugitive of Immortal Sword Sect is a whole different matter altogether!'' Elder Yang groaned in his heart.
Asura Demon Sect and the other Evil Sects were nothing more than a group of rats that could only hide or move secretly behind the shadow, but Immortal Sword Sect was the local lion here, the true king of Lightwind Continent.
''Should I just fake my own death to deceive Rongrong and all the people from Immortal Sword Sect? This idea is not a bad idea, but they can check if I am really dead or not from my life tablet. If I want this idea to work, then I must start from my life tablet in Ancestral Temple first.'' Elder Yang decided in his heart.
The life tablets of all elders from the Immortal Sword Sect were stored in Ancestral Temple.
If their life tablets stored in there suddenly shattered, then it means those elders already passed away.
From the shattered life tablets, the people from Immortal Sword Sect could even check thest scene that passed away elders had seen, thus they would immediately know the reason or the true culprit who killed their elders in an instant, and they could hunt the culprit from that clue.
Of course, not every culprit who killed the elders from Immortal Sword Sect could be traced with this method.
If the cultivation of the culprit was too high, or if the culprit used some kind of special treasure or the treasure used to y them was too highly ranked, then the soul of those elders would vanish in an instant, and the shattered life tablet could not catch thest scene after they died.
The perfect example was the elders who previously died in Taotie''s mouth...
How could the mere life tablets catch thest scene of something that entered the mouth of the most terrifying and the strongest beast in the four evil fiend beasts?!
Even now the death of those elders was still a mystery for the people from the Immortal Sword Sect, but no one dared to investigate it since they were afraid that those dead elders identally offended an extremely powerful being that could erase their existence in an instant.
''This is strange¡ Those elders that escorted me to Tang Feng City should already tell the old Patriarch about my close rtionship with Xiao Bai, but why he did not ask me about it?'' Elder Yang frowned and felt a bit suspicious, but he decided to not think too much since no one asked him about it.
In the end, Elder Yang decided to not meet with Rongrong today since his heart and mind still felt so messy right now, and he decided to head directly to the library to receive his punishment there.
Elder Yang did not know that the old Patriarch actually did not know about that matter yet¡
¡.
¡
.
A few days ago when Elder Yang and the other elders came back to Immortal Sword Sect, Elder Yang himself must report everything that happened in Tang Feng City to the old Patriarch, especially since he was failed to catch any of the culprits of the serial murder and even let them all escape without getting any clue about their true identity.
But Elder Yang and the old Patriarch did not know that while Elder Yang was reporting to the old Patriarch, the other elders were actually got called by Rongrong.
The four Nascent Soul Stage elders did not hold anything back and told what happened in Tang Feng City to Rongrong, including Elder Yang that actively flirting with Tang Li Xue there.
"Thank you very much for telling me all about these, elders. Can all of you help me once more by not telling the part where my Yangyang yed around with that girl to anyone, including my 1st Grandpa?" Rongrong humbly asked for the elders to hide the truth about Elder Yang flirted with Tang Li Xue from everyone.
"This¡" The four Nascent Soul Stage elders hesitated for a while.
Rongrong smiled at them while waved her hand toward her maid as if she was asking her maid to take out something.
Rongrong''s maid understood in an instant and took out a wooden box from the drawer at the dressing table.
Rongrong took the wooden box from her maid and gave it to the four Nascent Soul Stage elders while exined: "Elders do not need to worry. I can reassure you all that you will not get punished even if my 1st Grandpa knows about itter. All of you should already know that my 1st Granpa alwaysplies with my every wish, right? Inside this box is my gratitude gift from me to all of you, please ept it."
The four Nascent Soul Stage elders still looked at each other and felt hesitant about epting Rongrong''s gift.
"Inside this box, there are four Poison Body Pills. It is concocted from nine galldders from nine different types of Beast Lord-ranked Snakes. By consuming it, you will immune to more than 3,000 poisons, and every sliver of your Qi would be mixed with undetectable lethal poisonous Qi." Rongrong exined the effect of her gift to the four Nascent Soul Stage elders.
The eyes of the four Nascent Soul Stage elders shone brighter in greediness after they heard Rongrong''s exnation, and they happily epted her gift.
"Nephew Rong, if you feel jealous of that girl, we can even help you secretly kill her without being discovered by Elder Yang. How about it?" The four Nascent Soul Stage elders felt really happy with Rongrong''s generous gift, but they also felt ufortable since they felt as if they cheated Rongrong so they decided to offer their help to her instead.
"Thank you for your offer, Elders. But you all do not need to go that far. My Yangyang is still very young, so it is normal for him to flirt with one or two other young girls. I do not mind if he has several more concubinester. I, Rongrong, am already more than satisfied to have Yangyang by my side." Rongrong said with a gentle tone.
The expressions of the four elders changed after they heard it, and they admired Rongrong more.
"But Rongrong feel a bit curious about that girl. Is she really that beautiful?" Rongrong giggled and asked with a yful tone.
"Yes, that girl is very beautiful like a fairy¡ No, maybe even more than that¡" One of the four elders could not hold their fondness of Tang Li Xue''s beauty and praised her generously in front of Rongrong.
"Oh, really? More beautiful than me?" Rongrong stopped smiling and asked again.
"This¡ Uh¡" The four elders did not dare to answer this question, but they also did not dare to lie, so they could only lower their heads and act confused.
"Elders'' reaction makes me more and more curious about that girl''s appearance. Can anyone of you paint her appearance for me?" Rongrong smiled again as usual and asked for the third time.
The four elders still felt hesitant, but one of them braved himself and replied: "It''s not that we do not want to paint her appearance for you, Nephew Rong. But no matter how good our painting skill is, it certainly could not express even a tenth of that girl''s true appearance."
"Oh? She is that beautiful?!" Rongrong felt skeptical.
"But Nephew Rong do not need to worry. You can find that girl easily if you really want to. The appearance of that girl is too beautiful, so she always covers her face with a fox mask and ck cloak to avoid any trouble. She also has long silky and shiny silver hair. In short, she is very easy to recognize." The other elders quickly added.
"I see... No wonder, Yangyang is so infatuated with her. Thank you very much for your help, Elders. I will not bother all of you anymore since you all must be tired right now." Rongrong politely saluted the four elders and bid them farewell.
After the four elders went out of her room, Rongrong''s expression turned gloomy, and she quickly took a piece of paper, then write something on it.
After she finished writing, Rongrong folded that paper and insert it into an envelope, then sealed it tightly.
"Susu, can I believe in you?" Rongrong asked her maid with a solemn expression.
The maid named Susu immediately kneeled in front of Rongrong and said: "Do not worry Young Miss. Susu will do everything for Young Miss even if Susu needs to sacrifice her life for Young Miss, Susu will not refuse!"
"Good! I trust you! Give this letter to Assassin Tower and remember to not let anyone see you or get any clue about this letter." Rongrong whispered to her maid while gave her maid a letter.
The maid felt puzzled and decided to ask: "Young Miss, I do not understand. Why do you not let those elders kill that girl instead of paying Assassin Tower to do it?"
Rongrong replied with a cold expression: "Are you really sure those four elders can keep their mouths shut forever? What if they divulge it to my Yangyang after he became the Young Patriarchter, doesn''t it mean Yangyang would hate me forever for that? I cannot afford that to happen! That is the reason why I refused their offer and doing it in such a roundabout way like this."
"Young Miss is so smart! Susu understood it now!" The maid replied to Rongrong in admiration.
Rongrong nodded to her maid and waved her hand signaled her to go: "You can go now. Remember to be really careful!"
After her maid went out from the room, Rongrong sneered coldly and murmured: "Only dead men can keep their mouths shut forever. I will use that maid to indirectlymunicate with Assassin Tower. After that girl killed by the assassins from Assassin Tower, I just need to get rid of that maid forever, and no one could rte that girl''s death with me anymore."
Of course, Rongrong could never get rid of the four Nascent Soul Stage elders just like that. It was the reason why Rongrong did not ept their offer to kill Tang Li Xue.
But get rid of one maid was not a big problem for Rongrong and no one would bother to notice if an insignificant maid was suddenly missing forever from here.

.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy finally arrived at the foot of Cang Yang Mountain after traveling for five days from the dense forest where the Myriad Foxes Academy''s space gate teleported her to.
Actually, Tang Li Xue wanted to bring Little Loki and her perfect copy to directly climb Cang Yang Mountain, but she immediately realized that there were many young cultivators waited at the tavern on the foot of Cang Yang Mountain.
"This is really strange. Why don''t they climb Cang Yang Mountain right away to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet as soon as possible?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy murmured in confusion.
Tang Li Xue also frowned and replied: "Let''s enter that tavern first. We can ask some information about that from any cultivator inside that tavernter."
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki in her embrace and led her perfect copy to enter the tavern while kept caressing Little Loki''s smooth ck fur.
The tavern itself was quite big and luxurious, but inside the tavern was actually quite crowded with many cultivators.
Luckily, there was still an empty table left for Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy quickly sat on the seat at that empty table and ordered some food and tea from the waiter.
Different from her previous penniless self at Tang Feng City, the current Tang Li Xue has so many gold coins in her space pouch right now, and she could order as many foods as she wants¡
Well, she actually took them from Elder Yang''s spatial ring, but it was not important anymore since Tang Li Xue already considered it as her own money right now.
Tang Li Xue wanted to ask for some information from the waiter after he brought their ordered foods and drinks to their tableter by giving him one or two gold coins, but something unexpected happens before that¡
A group of girls in an azure blue dress that just entered the tavern were heading toward Tang Li Xue''s table after they looked around for a few moments.
One of the girls suddenly threw a gold coin to Tang Li Xue''s face while said with a cold and arrogant tone: "This table belongs to us. You can take this gold coin for yourpensation."
Tang Li Xue swiftly raised her right hand and caught the gold coin before it struck her fox mask.
Honestly, she was pretty pissed off with this group of girls'' arrogant attitude and wanted to beat them up so badly by herself, but she did not want to wake the sleeping Little Loki in her embrace, so she only blinked toward her perfect copy.
Their minds were connected with each other, so of course, her perfect copy understood what Tang Li Xue wanted her to do in an instant.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes in annoyance, and then she secretly kicked that girl''s leg from behind.
BAAANG~!!!
Because of the kick from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, the girl who previously threw the gold coin toward Tang Li Xue''s face looked as if she suddenly kneeled in front of Tang Li Xue right now.
"I ept your apology. Now take your money and buy yourself another table." Tang Li Xue blurted as she flicked the gold coin back toward that girl''s face.
Even though it seems like Tang Li Xue only flicked the gold coin lightly, but she actually used some of her strength to flick it.
The gold coin flew like a bullet and struck the girl''s nose until her nose was bleeding a bit.
"How dare you?!" The group of girls in azure blue dress gritted their teeth in anger and unsheathed their weapons.
From the other cultivators'' conversation, Tang Li Xue managed to overhear some information from them.
There group of girls in azure blue dress were actually from White Crane Sect.
The White Crane Sect was one of the Five Virtuous Sects in Lightwind Continent, but they only epted females as their disciples.
In fact, there was no male in White Crane Sect, even the Patriarch and all of the elders from the White Crane Sect were also women.
It was rumored that all women in White Crane Sect were very otherworldly beautiful like fairies.
It was every man''s dream to marry the woman from White Crane Sect.
Everywhere these girls from White Crane Sect were going, they would be ttered by every man from the other sect, and they fought to get the attention of these girls from White Crane Sect.
That was also the reason why these girls dared to act so arrogantly. It was because those men''s tteries inted their ego.
But the most important reason that they dared to do it was that Tang Li Xue''s group only have two people and one kitten, while the other cultivators'' group have at least ten people or more.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already stood up from her seat to face them, so the real Tang Li Xue did not even bother to think about them anymore.
She saw that the waiter hesitated on approaching her table to bring the ordered foods and drinks because of themotion, so she decided to wave her hand while smiling to call him here.
The waiter still felt hesitant, but he still decided to bring the ordered foods and drinks onto Tang Li Xue''s table.
Tang Li Xue immediately paid for all of the foods and drinks she ordered, but she also slipped a gold coin to the waiter and started to ask him a few questions.
¡..
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy began to fight against the group of girls from White Crane Sect alone.
The two girls from White Crane Sect waved their swords toward the shoulder of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with the intention to cut her arms.
Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palms]!
The two swords passed through the body of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy harmlessly!
It was a very strange scene to be seen as if Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was actually not a human but a ghost.
Then Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suddenly took a step forward and swiftly struck the shoulder of both two girls from White Crane Sect at once with both of her palms.
BAAANG~!!! BAAANG~!!!
The two girls flew backward and spun several times on midair while spurted a few mouthfuls of blood.
They almost fell heavily onto the nearby table, but the cultivators at that table quickly pulled their table, so it did not get struck by the two girls'' bodies.
The battles between cultivators were the normal urrences for these cultivators, so they did not really mind it and watched the fight with interest instead.
They were especially interested in the strange martial art that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was using right now.
''This [Drifting Cloud Palms] is really awesome! That girl from Immortal Sword Sect is surely a fool to not even be able to use this [Drifting Cloud Palms] properly!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy clicked her tongue in amazement.
[Crouching Tiger w] was the w-type martial arts used to sh, grab, crush, and tear the enemies.
In Tang Li Xue''s eyes, it was normal for any martial art to be used to defeat the enemies, but [Drifting Cloud Palms] was a bit different.
It was a very strange martial art that not only could be used to strike the enemies but also to parry, dodge, and counterattack.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy defeated the girls from White Crane Sect so easily one by one.
She even took some of her time to y around with them using her Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palms], but no matter how much they attacked her, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy remained untouchable.
"Back off!" A sweet but cold voice suddenly warned all the girls from behind.
Then a young girl in a white dress shed toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in an instant, leaving a long trail of frozen in each of her every step.
The young girl in a white dress threw her palm toward the chest of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy pushed her palm forward to meet with it!
If the young girl''s attack could still sneak attacking Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy despite her having [Extrasensory Perception], [Increase Reaction Speed], [urate Prediction], and all of her other skills, then Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy better kill herself with a block of tofu on the spot.
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
The young girl in a white dress was thrown off several meters backward, but she quickly spun elegantly on mid-air, and her every movement created several snowkes around her.
Meanwhile, everything around Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waspletely frozen by the young girl''s extremely cold Qi.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy countered her attack with her Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palms], so she did not get harmed by it.
"It is Snow Fairy from White Crane Sect, Meng Ying!"
"Woah, she is so beautiful and elegant as always!"
"That elegant move must be her Snow Dance Steps."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk¡ It looks like his Frozen Moon Arts already improved again."
¡..
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she heard the conversation from the surrounding cultivators.
''Why the hell is she called Snow Fairy?! How dare she call herself the Snow Fairy?! I should be the one called that since I am more beautiful and much stronger than her! ¡ And my name is Tang Li Xue (Beautiful Snow) after all!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart.
Chapter 412: Requirements to Enter Inheritance Ground Tablet?!
Chapter 412: Requirements to Enter Inheritance Ground Tablet?!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes and rebuked with their mind connection: ''Why do you want to be called Snow Fairy? You do not even have any martial art or skill rted to snow or ice. If you really want a title so badly, Moon Fairy is more suitable for us than Snow Fairy.''
''Who said I do not know any martial art rted to snow?! Look! I learned it now!'' The real Tang Li Xue rebuked back.
[Mirror of the Moon] activated!
[Copy Start]!
Name: 8thyer of Snow Dance Steps
Type: Movement-Type Martial Art
[Copy Completed]!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy became speechless in a few moments before replied in annoyance: ''¡.. Just how childish you are?! Why the hell do you even need to rece Silly Fox''s [Blood Ignition] divine ability for thatme martial art?!''
''We can copy Silly Fox''s [Blood Ignition] divine ability againter after we return to Myriad Foxes Academy. We cannot even use [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] inside Inheritance Ground Tabletter, so having one Movement-Type Martial Art to rece it is a quite good choice.'' The real Tang Li Xue stated her reason.
''You are really good at finding a reasonable excuse, aren''t you? But you should remember that our mind is connected together, so you cannot lie to me¡'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy retorted.
Although Tang Li Xue argued back and forth with her perfect copy for a while with their mental connection, but only a few seconds had actually passed in the real world.
"Please forgive for my audacity. I am Meng Ying, the core disciple of the White Crane Sect. Can I ask why young miss suddenly attack myrades?" Meng Ying saluted Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and politely asked with an expressionless face.
''What a big liar?! So this is the legendary ''white lotus''?! The one that always acts pure and innocent in front of others, but actually scheming behind everyone''s back!'' The real Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue with a mixed feeling between amazement and disgust.
With her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue could sense that this Meng Ying was lying to her in an instant.
It was clear this Meng Ying turned a blind eye when her so-calledrades bullied the others, but she suddenlyunched a sneak attack on Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy when herrades were beaten by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy before.
After her sudden sneak attack failed and knew that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was not an easy target to deal with, she immediately changed her stance and pretended as if she did not know what was going on before.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to spit on the face of the girl like this the most when she saw them in her previous life''s novels and movies, but who knew that she would meet with the real one in real life right now.
''Just you watch! She will push all of the mistakes to her so-calledrades, then apologized on their behalf to look as if she is taking the me for them. Tsk, she just wants everyone to see herself as a saint!'' Tang Li Xue predicted as she took an apple from the table and leisurely bit it as if she was watching a theatrical drama.
"One of yourrades forced to upy my table and even threw a gold coin to my face. I already politely refuse their offer by throwing back the gold coin to her face, but the others got angry with me instead and started to attack me." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied to Meng Ying.
Meng Ying''s eyes turned cold as she stared at one of herrades that have her nose bleeding and said: "I see, so that is what happened."
The girl with a bleeding nose only lowered her head in guilty, and she did not dare to look at Meng Ying.
"Our team does not need a rash and impertinent person like you. There is no need for you to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet with us anymore. You can go back to White Crane Sect now." Meng Ying coldly said to the girl with a bleeding nose.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned deeply, and she suddenly lost interest in fighting with this group of girls, while thought: ''Are they a group of cultivators or what?! No, maybe they are a group of actresses?''
''See? I told you so! Just beat her up until she is begging for your mercy..... I really want to say that, but there is no need for us to continue to push them too far for now. They are from a big sect, and there should be some elders from their sect escorting secretly behind them. It is unwise for us to look for trouble with them before we enter Inheritance Ground Tablet.'' The real Tang Li Xue instructed her perfect copy.
"I, Meng Ying, offer my apologies for offending young miss. If young miss still feels displeased, young miss can strike me once to calm your anger." Meng Ying saluted politely to Tang Li Xue again.
"There is no need for that. It is only a small misunderstanding between us." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy smiled at Meng Ying.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy engaged in polite conversation with Meng Ying for a few minutes, while the real Tang Li Xue already lost interest in their meaningless talk and started to ask a few more questions from the waiter.
Tang Li Xue poured the tea onto her perfect copy''s cup when her perfect copy sat back on her seat and looked exhausted.
"Good job! As I expect from¡ myself?" Tang Li Xue murmured inughter.
"It is really tiring to deal with a scheming girl like her. She kept asking this and that in such a roundabout way to check our identity! I do not want to deal with her anymore. Next time, you must deal with her yourself!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy groaned and drank the tea in her cup with one gulp.
"Oh,e on! Don''t say it like that! We are one and the same, right? Okay, let''s forget that matter for now¡ We have more important matters to think and discuss right now." Tang Li Xue said as she took a crispy roasted pork belly with her chopstick and bit on it.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also took her chopstick and started to eat, but her mind was in deep thought.
Both of them already knew by now that the information from Instructor Mei Lan was actually iplete, but they managed to get some important information from the waiter after paid him a few gold coins.
Entering Inheritance Ground Tablet was actually not as easy as Instructor Mei Lan told them before.
There were several others requirements they need to meet in order for them to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet.
One, the age of participants must be lower than twenty years old, and their cultivation must not be higher than Acupuncture Opening Stage.
Two, the participant must have an ancient jade emblem to enter the Inheritance Ground Tablet.
The first requirement was not a problem for Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue did not have any ancient jade emblem with her.
Actually, it was not only Tang Li Xue that did not have any ancient jade emblem, but all of the people here did not have it too.
There were one hundred jade pieces scattered all around Cang Yuan Mountain, and everyone must look for the ''Heaven'' jade piece and the ''Earth'' jade piece, thenbined them into one to get aplete ancient jade emblem.
After they got aplete ancient jade emblem, they could head directly to the Peak of Cang Yuan Mountain to find Inheritance Ground Tablet and used thatplete ancient jade emblem to enter the sealed space in Inheritance Ground Tablet.
From this information, Tang Li Xue could easily deduce that only fifty people could enter Inheritance Ground Tablet in the end.
Meanwhile, there were several hundred or even thousands of cultivators here... Thepetition would certainly be really fierceter on.
Moreover, the guardian elders from all the big sects could only remain on the foot of Cang Yuan Mountain and wait for their young disciples toe back one monthter since they could not even enter Cang Yuan Mountain along with their young disciples.
"Hundreds of Cultivators but only fifty people could enter. Sigh¡ Thepetition to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet will be really cruel and bloody. I really do not understand why they make the requirement like this?! Compared to this, Fox Hunting Festival is certainly morepetitive but the young foxes do not need to risk their life to enter it." Tang Li Xue muttered to herself.
"We stillck 80 Deity Coins to pay for [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]prehension, right? Why you don''t try to trigger a quest to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gave a reasonable suggestion.
Tang Li Xue nodded to her perfect copy and took a deep breath before calling the system with her thought.
Ding!
----------------------------------------------------
[Quest: (Entry Pass) Find ''Heaven'' and ''Earth'' jade pieces, then use them to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet in 12 hours after Cang Yang Mountain Pass has opened!]
[Difficulty: Normal]
[Reward: Level +1, Stat Point+100 (+25), Skill Point+15(+4), 80(+20) Deity Coins]
----------------------------------------------------
''Tsk, such a stinky reward?! But the difficulty is only set at ''Normal'', so it should not be that hard for me toplete. Whatever¡ At least I can get enough Deity Coins toprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] after Iplete this questter.'' Tang Li Xue impatiently licked her pink lips.
Chapter 413: Restriction?!
Chapter 413: Restriction?!
After eating to their fill, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy went out from the tavern and headed closer to the foot of Cang Yang Mountain.
There were still two days before they could enter Cang Yang Mountain, so they decided to travel around the foot of Cang Yang Mountain to look around.
Cang Yang Mountain was a very tall mountain, and it was covered by the thick white fog.
Many young and old cultivators waited patiently at the foot of Cang Yang Mountain, but they did not remain idle. All of them sat in the lotus position and diligently proceed with their cultivation.
Young cultivators should be the participant, while the old cultivator should be their guardian.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy looked upward to observe Cang Yang Mountain, but she started toin a bit when she saw the thick white fog that covered Cang Yang Mountain: "I hate fog¡ It makes me remember our first entry trial of Myriad Foxes Academy."
The real Tang Li Xue silently nodded her head in agreement.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tried to enter the thick white fog area and look if there was really a barrier there.
But despite having [Extrasensory Perception], she still walked around in a circle and came out again from the same spot she entered before after walking for a few seconds inside the thick white fog.
The real Tang Li Xue felt amazed and muttered: "I wonder if this is the space-type barrier or illusion-type barrier?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shrugged her shoulder and said: "It seems there is no way anyone can climb the mountain first before the others. We can only wait patiently for another two days."
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy decided to set a camp near the foot of Cang Yang Mountain like the other cultivators.
There were no beasts in the vicinity of Cang Yang Mountain''s foot, so it was quite safe. But some cultivators will fight against each other from the time to time.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy stayed inside their tent for these two days to not attract any attention, so there were no male humans who saw them or tried to get acquainted with them again like before.
The real Tang Li Xue continued with her cultivation, while her perfect copy experimented to make several new talismans with the golden [Inscription Pen].
Two days passed quickly in a blink of an eye, and all of the cultivators including Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were already getting ready to climb Cang Yang Mountain.
FWOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
The thick white fog on the foot of Cang Yang Mountain started to move upward onto Cang Yang Mountain''s body, and it made the white fog on the foot of Cang Yang Mountain got much thinner than before.
When they saw that, all of the cultivators dashed at the same time to climb Cang Yang Mountain as fast as they could.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy also ran to climb Cang Yang Mountain, but they were quite rxedpared to the others.
Although, the white fog has already been thinned a lot than before, but there were many tall trees and bushes in front of all of them. All of those greatly restricted the vision of all the cultivators and Tang Li Xue.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy have [Extrasensory Perception], so they could still sense everything around them clearly.
''All of the cultivators who climb Cang Yang Mountain are only at Acupuncture Opening Stage. Even if they break through to the early Foundation Establishment Stage, they are still not my match, so there is no need for me to rush. I can rob anyer after they managed to get theplete ancient jade emblem.'' Tang Li Xue nonchntly thought.
Tang Li Xue thought that she managed to fight for a while against Elder Yang without losing, and he was at least at mid-rank Core Formation Stage, so she was very confident that she was the strongest person in Cang Yang Mountain right now.
Unfortunately, her confidence waspletely shattered the moment she climbed Cang Yang Mountain for tens of meters.
Ding!
[You have entered Prohibition Area.]
[Your Beast Cultivation System is sealed.]
[All of the stats, skills, bloodline battle style, and divine abilities from your Beast Cultivation System are no longer avable until you get out from the Prohibition Area.]
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy almost stumbled and fell when they felt their strength was suddenly decreasing so much in an instant.
"Our Beast Cultivation System is sealed?! Who the hell created this damned Cang Yang Mountain?! Just how mighty the creator of this Inheritance Ground Tablet that he could create the prohibition area to seal my Beast Cultivation System like this?!" Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise when she saw the notification from her system and started toin.
If Instructor Mei Lan was here, she would definitely roll her eyes at Tang Li Xue and said in a disdainful tone to Tang Li Xue: "If Inheritance Ground Tablet is so easy to infiltrate, our Fox Race would already clear out all of the resources and treasures from that ce since long ago."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shuddered a bit in anxiousness. She nced at the real Tang Li Xue and muttered: "If all of our abilities and overall stats in Beast Cultivation System really got sealed¡ Does it mean we only have the strength of Rank 1 Acupuncture Opening Stage cultivation?"
The real Tang Li Xue became speechless.
After her Beast Cultivation System got sealed, even her [Extrasensory Perception] got reduced back to the level of [Spirit Perception], and its range also got restricted further by the mysterious white fog.
Right now, the [Spirit Perception]''s range of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy was no more than three steps around them.
"All of the cultivators here are already reach high-rank (Rank 8-9) Acupuncture Opening Stage or even Peak Acupuncture Opening Stage! How could wepete with them with only the early Acupuncture Opening Stage?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy whispered as she got more anxious.
The real Tang Li Xue finally knew why her system gave her a quest now.
In short, Tang Li Xue''s system would never give any quest that she could bepleted so easily.
Even the normal difficulty quest would need quite a lot of her efforts toplete.
The real Tang Li Xue took a deep breath andforted herself: "Calm down. The quest from the system stated that the difficulty is only normal. It means we only need to throw a hard effort toplete it, but the threat level is still quite lowpared to hard level difficulty. Everything will be okay."
"The threat level is low you said?! Do not forget that we are the only fox in the middle of human cultivators right now, and we take the Inheritance trial for human cultivators too right now! We will certainly meet our doom if our identity is identally discovered by anyone here." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined in agitation.
"Sigh¡ We should already know from the start that the system will never give us any free and easy quest for us toplete. Moreover, there is no Instructor Mei Lan to guide and help us this time..." The real Tang Li Xue also grumbled.
"Nyaaaooo~!!!"
Little Loki suddenly struggled out from Tang Li Xue''s embrace and jumped down, then its tiny ck figure was shed toward their right side.
"Little Loki! Do not be naughty! You can easily get lost here!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she quickly chased after Little Loki.
After running for a few meters to the right side, Little Loki suddenly jumped again and scratched on something in front of it.
"AAAAAAARGGGHHH~!!!" A male voice suddenly shouted out in pain.
"There is actually a person who is secretly following us!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in surprise as she also moved toward that voice.
''Damn it! Did he eavesdropping our conversation before?! Oh crap?! We must quickly kill him no! We cannot afford to let him spread about it!'' Tang Li Xue quickly thought while she also told her perfect copy on what to do.
They were previously talking about Beast System Cultivation and fox among human cultivators after all!
This male cultivator was using some kind of martial art to make himself invisible, and he kept his distance several meters behind Tang Li Xue''s group. That was the reason why Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy failed to notice him.
That male cultivator realized that Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy already knew about his location and chased after him, so he quickly escaped from there.
But Little Loki was persistently clinging on him and even bit his shoulder right now.
[8thyer of Snow Dance Steps]!
Tang Li Xue suddenly used the martial art she copied from the Snow Fairy to chase after the male cultivator.
Her body started to emit a cold aura and countless tiny crystal snowkes were falling around her.
Her movement speed increased by several times, and the ce she stepped was also covered with snow in an instant.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy simultaneously activated [Snow Dance Steps] to quickly catch up with the invisible male cultivator.
Transcendence State [Crouching Tiger w]!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not hesitate to use Transcendence State [Crouching Tiger w] to attack the invisible male cultivator from behind.
The invisible male cultivator seems to sense the attack from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, and he suddenly turned around, then threw a powerful roundhouse kick toward her.
[Spinning Meteor Kick]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The two attacks collided violently with each other!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was thrown off several meters backward, while the invisible male cultivator deliberately used the momentum of collusion to jump forward and create some distance with the real Tang Li Xue.
''Damn! Be careful! He is very strong! Err¡ No, we are the ones that be a lot weaker now, so we must be careful of all other cultivators.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tried to warn the real Tang Li Xue.
Chapter 414: The Weakest Participant and The Weakest Team!
Chapter 414: The Weakest Participant and The Weakest Team!
The invisible male cultivator pped his own body several times to smack away Little Loki, but Little Loki agilely dodged all of his attacks by jumping to his right shoulder, the top of his head, or his left shoulder while kept biting and scratching him.
All of Little Loki''s attacks could only leave some light wounds on the invisible male cultivator, but it made Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy knew the location of the invisible male cultivator.
Of course, Little Loki could easily kill or devour this invisible male cultivator, but it did not want to spoil Tang Li Xue, and this weak male cultivator did not even qualified for it.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could usually sense anyone or anything invisible in a radius several tens of meters from them with [Extrasensory Perception], but right now, they could only rely on their [Spirit Perception] which could only vaguely sense two or three steps from them.
''Thankfully, I already equipped myself with [Critical Strikers] and [Shadow Striders] before climbing this Cang Yang Mountain. It seems Equipment Skills can still be used as usual here.'' Tang Li Xue thought as she used [Snow Dance Steps] to get closer to the invisible male cultivator.
When Tang Li Xue reached the invisible male cultivator and ran right beside him, the invisible male cultivator threw his fist toward Tang Li Xue''s chest.
[Angry Wolf Fist]!
Tang Li Xue could see the shadow of the wolf angrily dash toward her while bared its fangs, ready to tear her body to pieces.
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to use her Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palms] and threw her palm to meet with the shadow of an angry wolf.
But when the shadow of the angry wolf pounced toward Tang Li Xue to sh with her palm, the shadow of the angry wolf only harmlessly passed her palm and body as if she was only an illusion.
Of course, the shadow of the angry wolf was not actually passed through Tang Li Xue''s body like when she used [Ethereal Form].
[Drifting Cloud Palms] lies in its unpredictability and could easily be used to deceive the enemy''s senses and sight.
Tang Li Xue was never nned to sh head-on with the invisible male cultivator''s attack.
She already knew that her opponent was a lot stronger than her in this ce, so she decided to use [Drifting Cloud Palms] to cleverly parry his attack instead.
Then she did not hesitate to use Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger w] to catch the invisible male cultivator''s neck. It was clear that she nned to kill her enemy by crushing his neck with this move.
In this kind of situation where everyone was a lot stronger than her, she could no longer afford to be lenient to anyone. It was her that would be killed sooner orter if she still kept hesitating like usual.
The faint majestic roar of the tiger was echoed as Tang Li Xue''s Qi formed a sharp tiger w!
The invisible male cultivator quickly ducked and rolled on the ground to dodge Tang Li Xue''s [Crouching Tiger w].
''Damn it! My martial art technique is a lot better than him, but he has high-rank Acupuncture Opening Stage cultivation, so he is not only much stronger than me but also much more agile. I cannot let him drag this fight any longer.'' Tang Li Xue deduced while gnashed her teeth in anger.
There were no more people around them right now because all of the other cultivators already climbed to the higher area.
If Tang Li Xue wasted too much time fighting with this invisible male cultivator, all of the ancient jade emblems would be taken by the other cultivators.
Tang Li Xue nced at her perfect copy and nodded toward her as a signal.
Their tiny action was realized by the invisible male cultivator, and he became wary toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in that instant.
Unfortunately for him, their signal was only Tang Li Xue''s n to distract his attention for a moment since she did not really need to give any signal to her perfect copy when their mind was already connected with each other.
[Shadow sh]!
Tang Li Xue activated her equipment skill and teleported to the invisible male cultivator''s shadow below his feet in that instant!
PPPUUUFFF~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Crouching Tiger w] prated the invisible male cultivator''s chest swiftly without any resistance, destroyed the invisible male cultivator''s inner organs, including his heart.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and thought: ''Luckily, he did not wear any body protection. If not, I must use [Final Strike] to deal the finishing blow.''
That male cultivator was broken out from his invisible state, and he became visible again when he was dying. He stared at Tang Li Xue as if he found it strange and could not believe that Tang Li Xue could suddenly appear below him.
The blood flowed out profusely from his chest and mouth, and after a few seconds, the life in his eyes faded away as he finally lost his life.
Tang Li Xue pulled her hand from the male cultivator''s chest, and his lifeless body fell limply onto the grassy ground.
Tang Li Xue still pondered for a while if she should bury or burn the male cultivator corpse to show some of her respect to him, but her perfect copy immediately called her: "Let''s go! Come on, just leave his corpse there alone! I bet nobody would bother to bury anyone they kill here. We do not have much time anymore!"
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and flicked her finger toward the corpse. A tiny wisp of her deep-blue me of Pride flew toward the corpse and burned it to nothingness in only one or two seconds.
Little Loki already jumped back onto Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder and sat there quietly after the male cultivator was killed by Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy hastily continued to climb the Cang Yang Mountain.
"You are still too soft! You must remember that we are the weakest cultivators here! When we are weaker than the others, we need to make it up with ruthlessness! No... Not only we are the weakest cultivators here, but we also have the least team members among the other cultivators." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy warned her real self.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and replied: "I know¡ I know¡ But all of this dy was because of your fault before! Not me! You better not mention anything about¡ our origin and race here."
There was no limitation about the people who could enter Cang Yang Mountain, so there were many rich young masters that hiring Acupuncture Opening Stage Cultivators to help them. Many of them brought about thirty Acupuncture Opening Stage Cultivators as their bodyguards.
Even core disciples from the five Virtue Sects were grouping with other core disciples from their own sects. The Snow Fairy''s team of White Crane Sect from before has more than ten high-rank Acupuncture Opening Stage Cultivators in her team.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s team only pathetically consisted of three people... One among them was her own perfect copy, while the other one was only a tiny ck kitten.
Tang Li Xue''s mood turned sour and gloomy when she realized it and grumbled in her heart: ''How the hell I couldpete with the other with this kind of team?! Also, why are there only fiftyplete ancient jade emblems?! There are too few of those emblems, but there are so many of us!''
"Nyaaaa~!!!"
Thezy Little Loki suddenly jumped out from Tang Li Xue''s embrace again and waved her tiny paw toward Tang Li Xue as if it instructed Tang Li Xue to follow it.
"Eh? What happens, Little Loki? Don''t tell me there is another cultivator that trying to ambush or follow us?!" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki with an urgent tone.
"Nyan¡ Nyaaaaw Mew¡" Little Loki shook its tiny furry head and made a circle gesture with its tiny paw, then dashed toward the northwest.
The topaz blue eyes of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy was glittering brighter in excitement as they slowly nced at each other and muttered: "The ancient jade emblem~!"
But they quickly closed each other mouths with their palm. Tang Li Xue covered her perfect copy''s mouth, while her perfect copy covered the real Tang Li Xue''s mouth.
Both of them quickly removed their palm, and hissed to silence each other: "SSSSHHHH~!!!"
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy quickly followed Little Loki from behind. After a few minutes, they finally arrived at therge trees, but there were already many cultivators there, and they fought fiercely against each other.
''Tsk, those people already arrived here first before us. One among them must have already taken the half of ancient jade emblem. What should we do now? Wait until both teams exhausted before we snatch the half of the ancient jade emblem from them or abandon it and search for another one?'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked while all of them hide inside nearby thick bushes.
Tang Li Xue caught Little Loki and hugged it, so Little Loki would not recklessly run toward the middle of the fierce battle between two teams.
After pondered for a while and made up a n, Tang Li Xue finally decided and sent her instruction to her perfect copy: ''Let''s snatch the half of the ancient jade emblem from them! There are too many cultivators here, and we would never know if we will really manage to find the ancient jade emblem before the others.''
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nodded and replied: ''Actually, we can use [Shadow Walker] effect from [Shadow Striders] boots to stay invisible at nightter, then try to snatch theplete ancient jade emblem from the other team. But I doubt that the other teams do not have any cultivators with martial art or spell to sense invisible enemies.''
''[Shadow sh]''s cooldown already finished. But it can only make one of us teleport to any shadow 100 meters from us. You already know my n, right?'' Tang Li Xue sneered slyly and patted at her perfect copy''s shoulder.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes and grumbled in dissatisfaction: ''So, it is my job again?! This is not fair!''
Chapter 415: The True Power of Inscriptionist!
Chapter 415: The True Power of Inscriptionist!
''Whatever... I can use this chance to test all of my new talismans anyway... Uwehehehe...'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rubbed her palms while sneered in excitement.
''Tsk, you keptining about unfairness, but I always know that you always want a chance to experiment with your newly made talismans, right?!'' Tang Li Xue mocked at her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue always busily honed her [Art of Concealment], application of her divine abilities, and improved her cultivation, while her perfect copy was always in charge of making talismans and improved her skills in runes and inscriptions.
Tang Li Xue''s inscriptionist level already reached [Level 10: Apprentice] after her perfect copy made so many basic buff-type talismans until now.
Previously, Tang Li Xue never really needs to rely on other talismans than buff-type talismans since her all-round divine abilities were already more than enough to handle any dangerous situation, but right now, she finally decided to rely on the other type of talismans since she could not use all of her divine abilities here.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took out a [Talisman of Stealthy +3] from her space pouch and stuck it on her own body. Her body immediately turned transparent as she entered an invisible state.
Usually, she could use [Ethereal Form] divine ability to turn invisible, but she did not have any other choice than to rely on this [Talisman of Stealthy +3] right now.
''All right! I will begin now! Wish me good luck, my real self! Adios~!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy smiled mischievously as she jumped out from bushes and dashed toward the fierce battle between two teams.
''Oy! Do not forget your true objective to take the half ancient jade emblem!'' Tang Li Xue worriedly warned her perfect copy again.
Well¡ all of the talismans were made by her perfect copy, so it made sense that her perfect copy was so excited to test its effect.
The minds of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy connected with each other, but it did not mean they would always have the same feeling too.
For example like now, Tang Li Xue never really trained her inscription skill, and she was not the one who made those new talismans. All of those were her perfect copy''s job, so the real Tang Li Xue did not as enthusiastic as her perfect copy to test the effect of newly made talismans.
''Sigh¡ I wonder if everything is really going to be all right?! Don''t get me wrong¡ I do not worry about my perfect copy since she can easily escape with [Shadow sh] if the situation got worse for her. It is just¡ Those new talismans are actually¡ quite powerful and dangerous¡ I hope she will not overdone it'' Tang Li Xue bit her lips in worry.
Tang Li Xue sat leisurely behind the bushes and gently stroke Little Loki''s furry head while silently prayed for all of those poor souls that would be guinea pigs for her perfect copy''s newly made talismans.
¡..
¡
.
''Hmm¡ Which newly made talismans that I need to test first to get maximum effect?'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy started to ponder for a few moments, but several sudden strayed attacks almost hit her.
Luckily, she was fast enough to step back to dodge it.
''Are they crazy or what?! Why they need to fight so fiercely to kill each other when we are still so far away from the top of Cang Yang Mountain right now. Had they never considered what if the other group of cultivators came hereter to take the half of the ancient jade emblem after they fought to the death to get it? I bet almost half of them are dead by now.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned when she realized so many corpses already scattered there.
''Oh well¡ since they really wanted to die so badly, it would such a big shame if I did not honor their sacrifice.'' The topaz blue eyes of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy glinted coldly as she took two stacks of her newly made talismans from her space pouch.
This was another difference between Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy.
Because of her experience in her previous life, Tang Li Xue''s temperament was milder and merciful.
Although, her perfect copy also had those memories, but she did not experience it by herself, so the perfect copy''s temperament was a bit mischievous and more ruthless than the real one.
The two stacks of the newly made talismans she took out were [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3] and [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3].
Both of them were thebination of two different runes inscribed into a single talisman.
For example [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3], was thebination of [Stealth] rune and [Explosion] rune. It made the talismanpletely invisible, with the effect of a powerful explosion if triggered!
Meanwhile, [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] was thebination of [Stealth] rune and [Illusion] rune.
[Stealth] rune made this talismanpletely invisible from others too, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy strangelybined it with [Illusion] rune used for disguise?!
Invisibility and disguise might sound mismatched, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already had a perfect n on how to utilize it in this kind of chaotic situation.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy slowly walked while spreading the [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3] everywhere on the grassy ground below the feet of those fighting cultivators.
Meanwhile, she secretly stuck the [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] onto the body of some cultivators that still busily fighting among themselves.
Even when she was still in her invisible state, but sometimes there would be straying attacks flying toward her, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy easily avoid it, and sometimes she just pulled the nearby cultivators, then used them as her shield.
''Tsk, There are too many people here.
I don''t even know anymore which cultivator that holds the half ancient jade emblem.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned in annoyance when she kept spreading the [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3] and sticking [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] onto the body of nearby cultivators.
It took her a while, but she found a handsome young cultivator who was under siege by so many other cultivators while his bodyguards kept protecting him from them.
The battle to protect that handsome young cultivator against the cultivators who wants to catch him was much fiercer and bloody, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could deduce that the handsome young cultivator should be the one who held the half of ancient jade emblem.
Tang Li Xue stealthy approached the handsome young cultivator, and she immediately could sense the half of ancient jade emblem with her [Spirit Perception] after the distance between them were close enough.
''Eh? Why did he not store half of the ancient jade emblem into his spatial ring? Or maybe... the ancient jade emblem cannot be stored into spatial treasure like spatial ring or space pouch? This is quite troublesome. It seems I must deploy a bit reckless measure to get it.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought as she secretly got more closer to the handsome young cultivator.
The cultivator beside him immediately sensed something and stared at the invisible Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in suspicion.
''Oh, crap! There is a cultivator with the sharp [Spirit Perception] beside him! It seems he already prepared the countermeasure to prevent invisible enemies from closing to him.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy groaned in her heart.
She decided to use [Snow Dance Step] in that instant!
"Watch out! There is¡" The cultivator with the sharp [Spirit Perception] shouted out loud, but Tang Li Xue already arrived right in front of him and used her Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger w] to grab at his neck.
CRAAAACK~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy broke his neck with her [Crouching Tiger w] and instantly killed him in one move.
The handsome young cultivator got frightened and startled by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sudden appearance since she broke out from her invisible state when she used Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger w] to kill the cultivator with the sharp [Spirit Perception].
"Help~!!! There is an enemy here!" The handsome young cultivator shouted out loud for help.
His bodyguards quickly turned around and found Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already stood among them.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy swiftly charged toward the handsome young cultivator with [Snow Dance Step], but several of his bodyguards already stood right in front of the handsome young cultivator to protect him.
''Damn it! They are really fast! As I already expected, their cultivation level is far above mine. They might be high-rank Acupuncture Opening Stage Cultivators.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined in frustration, but she still did not give up and used her Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palms] without any hesitation.
"Kill her! Kill her immediately right now!" The handsome young cultivator shouted in panic and anger.
Three of his bodyguards charged toward Tang Li Xue and brandished the sharp saber in their hands toward her!
CLANG¡ CLANG¡ CLANG¡
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy spun her palms and hit the blunt side to deflect all of their sharp sabers while step closer toward the three of them in one move.
The three bodyguards could not use their sharp sabers since Tang Li Xue was too close with them right now, so some of them decided to kick her while the other decided to hit her with his elbow.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly somersault backward to dodge all of their attacks, but it also made her farther from her target, while the other weaker bodyguards already surround her from all sides.
No one realized that when she moved around to dodge and somersault backward, she was actually already spreading her [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3] everywhere below her opponents'' feet.
"Sigh¡ Please do not me me since all of you do not give me any other choice." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in an exaggerating manner.
"There is someone who said that art is an explosion¡ but for me, many explosions like fireworks are the true art, so please enjoy it to your heart content!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyughed mischievously while she made a hand gesture to trigger all of her [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3].
Chapter 416: True Elite Team!
Chapter 416: True Elite Team!
The real Tang Li Xue, who hid behind the thick bushes not far from the battlefield between two cultivator''s teams, quickly covered Little Loki''s furry ears while sealed her own silver fox ears with her Qi.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
¡..
After Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy triggered the [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3], the terrifying explosions continuously urred at this moment on the battlefield between two cultivator''s teams.
The thick dust and smoke were flying everywhere, mixed with the surrounding white fog, and it made all the cultivators there had a hard time knowing what currently happened.
Many cultivators, who were too busy fighting with each other before, were screaming in panic and fright right now.
Only one could describe their current situation here¡ CHAOS.
After the continuously terrifying explosions subsided, some unlucky cultivators were standing too close with the [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3] and got killed by the explosions from those talismans, but most of them were only lightly or heavily injured by it.
About sixty to seventy percent of them still survived from the effect of the [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3], and they could still move around despite their injuries.
The handsome young cultivator, who held the half of ancient jade emblem, was also still alive and only lightly injured, but he was clearly frightened silly by the current chaotic situation and did not know what he needed to do right now.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly took this chance to approach the handsome young cultivator and took half of the ancient jade emblem tucked in his belt along with his spatial ring on his finger before she kicked him away like useless trash.
The handsome young cultivator quickly woke up from his daze and shouted out loud to ask for help!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy knew that she certainly still could not match all of these injured cultivators alone if she tried to fight them head-on.
But of course, the n of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy would not end until here!
"This is my final gift for all of you. [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3], active!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy murmured while giggled softly as she made another hand gesture to trigger another kind of newly made talisman.
When she triggered [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] used for disguising, the appearance of all cultivators with [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] stuck on their body was changed to identical with Tang Li Xue''s look with a ck cloak and fox mask.
Under the extreme situation where the thick dust, choking smoke, and white fog covered their vision and senses¡? the angry and frustrated cultivators there started to fight crazily again with each other.
Most of them knew that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was the one who made all of these traps to snatch half of the ancient jade emblem from them, so their anger especially aimed toward her right now¡ or the cultivators that currently disguised as her right now to be exact¡
While all of those cultivators were fighting crazily to kill each other, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy activated [Shadow sh] and teleported to the shade beside the real Tang Li Xue, who was still waiting for her behind the thick bushes near the battlefield.
"I get it!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy happily took out half of the ancient jade emblem and observed it more closely.
It was the half of a white ancient jade emblem with ''Heaven'' carved on it.
"Great! We only need one more ''Heaven'' part and two ''Earth'' parts. Then we can head directly to the peak of Cang Yang Mountain to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet. Let''s go and continue our way!" Tang Li Xue urged her perfect copy.
"All right! Let''s go! But it will be better if each of us used this [Talisman of Stealthy +3] to make us invisible." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy warned while proudly stuck the [Talisman of Stealthy +3] to herself, the real Tang Li Xue, and Little Loki''s back.
Tang Li Xue thought that her perfect copy''s suggestion made sense, but she still decided to stare at her perfect copy and asked: "You are really sure this talisman is really [Talisman of Stealthy +3], right? If you dare to stick that [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3] to us¡ we will make sure that you will regret it."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes and replied: "Oh,e on! How can I make such a stupid mistake?! We are one and the same, right? How could you not trust yourself for something like that?"
"Because we are one and the same that I cannot even trust you would not make such a stupid mistake¡" Tang Li Xue suspiciously said.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waspletely dumbfounded by her real self''s words¡
¡..
¡
.
Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, and Little Loki continued on their way to the peak of Cang Yang Mountain again.
After each of them used [Talisman of Stealthy +3], they were traveling in an invisible state right now to not attract any attention, but each [Talisman of Stealthy +3] could onlyst for about fifteen minutes, so it was actually quite wasteful to keep using it until they reach the peak of Cang Yang Mountain.
"We are already halfway to the peak of Cang Yang Mountain right now¡ Little Loki, did you sense any half of the ancient jade emblem that appears near us again?" Tang Li Xue asked while patted at Little Loki''s furry head gently.
But Little Loki only shook its furry head and lowered its head again, then back to sleep as usual.
"This is really strange. I feel something is not right here." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered while slowly pondered carefully.
Tang Li Xue also frowned deeply and nodded her head in agreement.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nced at the real Tang Li Xue and asked: "What should we do now? Should we just wait at the peak of Cang Yang Mountain and rob someone else twoplete ancient jade emblem there?"
"Since even we can think something despicable like that so easily, I am sure there are many people who think the same as us. The peak of Cang Yang Mountain would surely be the bloody battlefield for all cultivators, so I prefer that we gather our ownplete ancient jade emblems before we silently sneak into Inheritance Ground Tabletter." Tang Li Xue exined her deduction.
"That is true! Fighting at the peak of Cang Yang Mountain to snatch twoplete jade emblems from other cultivators would be very dangerous for us, especially since we are the weakest cultivators with the fewest teammate here." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy added a few words.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy let out a frustrated sigh in unison.
Finally, they decided to not head directly to the peak of Cang Yang Mountain and searching for another half of ancient jade emblems.
They met with several groups of cultivators on their way, but fortunately, they kept using [Talisman of Stealthy +3] to be invisible, so they did not attract any unwanted attention from those other groups of cultivators on their way.
Little Loki sensed that some of those groups of cultivators have some parts of ancient jade emblems with them, but there were more than ten cultivators in each of those groups of cultivators, and all of them already reach high-rank Acupuncture Opening Stage.
''Ahhhh~!!! This is really frustrating! Can we just use the same method as before and snatch their half ancient jade emblem?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined as she silently observed one of the group from behind the nearby tree.
''Don''t be stupid¡ You can seed before because two sides of cultivators'' groups were too busy fighting against each other. But right now, they do not fight against each other, and only vigntly stared at each other. I am 100% sure that you would pulverize to blood pulp if you did what you do previously here.'' Tang Li Xue warned her perfect copy.
''Eh¡ look at that~! Isn''t that our acquaintance, the Snow Fairy, Meng Ying? So she brings her team here to fight head-on with the groups of cultivators here? Tsk, tsk, tsk¡ How bold! But this development is also good since it will give me a chance to sneakily snatch some of the ancient jade emblem''s parts!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copymented in excitement.
But the real Tang Li Xue frowned deeply instead since she did not believe that the genius cultivators would act that rash without any proper n.
''There are only females in White Crane Sect, but why there are many male cultivators in their group?! Also¡ Some of those male cultivators feel familiar¡ Wait a minute, aren''t they core disciples from Immortal Sword Sect?! Look at that rascal! Isn''t he Ye Zhen?!'' The real Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
Their group wore three sets of different uniforms and different colors: azure blue, light purple, and white.
From the symbol on their uniform, Tang Li Xue deduced that their teams consisted of the core disciples from three different virtuous sects: White Crane Sect, Immortal Sword Sect, and Oracle Mountain Sect.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy groaned again in frustration.
This kind of team formed from the best core disciples of the three biggest virtuous sects in Lightwind Continent was truly troublesome.
''No wonder we did not find any part of ancient jade emblem until now. All of them were probably already taken by them! They even n to take the ancient jade emblem''s parts from those other cultivators'' groups right now!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined.
There were more than forty cultivators on thebination team of virtuous sects'' core disciples.
They certainly nned to dominate almost all of fiftyplete jade emblems for their own team, so all the core disciples from their team of virtuous sects would enter Inheritance Ground Tablet.
''This is really troublesome. The best core disciples from three virtuous sects blended into one team! How the hell we could take the ancient jade emblems from them?!'' Tang Li Xue alsomented in annoyance.
Chapter 417: Tang Li Xue’s Plan!
Chapter 417: Tang Li Xue¡¯s n!
While Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy pondered their next move carefully, the three virtuous sects'' teams already tried to pressure the other cultivators'' teams to give up and hand over their ancient jade emblem''s parts.
But the overall numbers of other cultivators'' teams were more than twice the total of the three virtuous sects'' teams, so there was no way they would give up to the three virtuous sects'' teams without fighting.
The situation became really tense when all of the cultivators started to unsheathe their weapons. Thick murderous intent permeated the surrounding atmosphere as they were ready to fight to the death.
Tang Li Xue shook her head in disagreement with their will to fight to the end.
Although their number was more than twice as much as three virtuous sects'' teams, but the battle prowess of elite core disciples from three virtuous sects was more than enough to make up for that.
Every elite core disciple of the three virtuous sects definitely possessed extremely high martial prowess, and each of them could even beat five rogue cultivators at the same level of cultivation as them.
(Rogue Cultivators: Cultivators that did not join any sect or faction. They might be failed to join because their potential was too low, and they failed in the trial to join, or maybe they were already too old to join.)
Their extremely high martial prowess was due to the hundred thousand years umted martial inheritance of five virtuous sects.
They probably have millions of different martial art techniques with different grades.
The core disciples of five virtuous sects definitely learned the strong martial art techniques that suited them the best from their own respective sect, while the rogue cultivators could only learn what they might be identally found or from their family inheritance.
But it was also the reason why this chance to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet and get the martial inheritance from powerful cultivators was very very important for the rogue cultivators.
This chance was so important for them that all of these rogue cultivators were ready to risk their lives for it.
However, their will to fight against the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sects was no different than suicide in Tang Li Xue''s eyes.
''Hei, stop daydreaming! They already started to kill each other! What should we do right now? Should we take this chance to stealthy charge into the battlefield with [Talisman of Stealthy +3] and steal some ancient jade emblems from any random cultivators?'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used their mental connection to ask.
The real Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and replied: ''Do you really think those core disciples from the Five Virtuous Sects are a bunch of naive fools? There are many core disciples in the Five Virtuous Sects, and I am sure that they already choose their team''s lineup carefully, so their team should be all-rounded with some people.''
''Even if we charged into there in the invisible state, we will definitely get detected in an instant by those core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sects. What should we do then? Ask for forgiveness from them? Seduce that Ye Zhen so he would stand up for us?'' The real Tang Li Xue reprimanded her perfect copy.
The mouth of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy became speechless, and she pouted her pink lips in frustration.
Tang Li Xue silently observed the battlefield and analyzed the overall martial prowess of those core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sects.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy began to carefully simte several possible ns and the sess rate of those ns in their minds.
''I have [Water Mirage], [Snow Dance Step], Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger w] and [Drifting Cloud Palms], buff talismans to strengthen myself and my newly made talismans too¡ I can also use my equipment skills such as [Shadow sh] and [Final Strike]. If I got cornered, I can even use [me of Pride] or assimte with [Phoenix of Pride]. Not bad... But I should try my best to not use [me of Pride] or assimte with [Phoenix of Pride] unless in the life-threatening situation.''
Even after considering everything she had, Tang Li Xue only has 30% confidence in taking the ancient jade emblem from the Five Virtuous Sects'' teams.
Of course, she could also try to join Immortal Sword Sect''s team since her rtionship with Ye Zhen was quite good, but she really did not want to beg to join them for getting the ancient jade talisman for free unless she did not have any other choice.
''Maybe¡ we should just give up and look for another team to snatch. Those elite disciples from the Five Virtuous Sects are really too strong for us to handle now.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suggested when she started to lose her confidence after she saw how those elite core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sects fighting.
The battle was almost over in only a few minutes with the overwhelming victory of the core disciples'' teams.
Most of the rogue cultivators already got killed or lied down on the grassy ground while groaning in pain, while no one from the teams of elite core disciples from Five Virtuous Sects was injured.
''This is really too tragic to see¡'' Tang Li Xue thought as she felt really sorry for those rogue cultivators'' teams.
Then Tang Li Xue managed to catch a glimpse of several other core disciples gave parts of the ancient jade emblem they managed to find from the rogue cultivators to their respective team leaders such as Meng Ying from White Crane Sect, Ye Zhen from Immortal Sword, and one more elite core disciple should be the team leader from Oracle Mountain Sect.
''So they let their team leaders hold all of the ancient jade emblem''s parts! That is great! It will make us easier to snatch it!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in delight.
The real Tang Li Xue nodded in agreement.
Letting the strongest cultivators amongst them held all of the ancient jade emblems might sound reasonable, but it also gave an opening for Tang Li Xue to exploit.
She already formted a pretty good n to snatch the ancient jade emblems based on this fact.
''Let''s wait for a few more hours until the nightes before executing our n. You can make more [Hidden Exploding Talisman] and [Stealth Illusion Talisman] while I will keep trailing them carefully.'' The real Tang Li Xue instructed to her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes, but she still decided to start making more [Hidden Exploding Talisman], [Talisman of Stealthy], and [Stealth Illusion Talisman] since all of these talismans were crucial for their n.
It did not take long for the teams of core disciples from the Five Virtuous Sects to realize that someone actually observed and followed them.
Tang Li Xue did not know what method they used to detect her, but she immediately realized it when she saw the change in their movements.
''Fortunately, they only seem to be able to detect that they are currently being observed or followed by the others, but they still cannot sense the location of the person who observes or follows them.'' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind.
However, Tang Li Xue still frowned deeply as her worry had also grown.
The core disciples'' teams from the Five Virtuous Sects might be cannot detect or sense the location of the person who observes or follows them, but they would certainly be much warier because of it.
''Sigh¡ it will certainly be harder for me to snatch their ancient jade emblems like this. Oh, well... the white fog here greatly restricted my [Spirit Perception] and make me only be able to sense in radius two or three steps. I am sure they are also in the same condition as me, so my n should have work.'' Tang Li Xue thought to assure herself.
In a few hours, the core disciples'' teams from the Five Virtuous Sects climbed higher toward the peak of Cang Yang Mountain while kept robbing the ancient jade emblem from the other teams on their way.
Tang Li Xue guessed that each of their team leaders should already hold more than threeplete ancient jade emblems.
After the sky turned dark, the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sects already climbed quite far and probably almost halfway to the peak of Cang Yang Mountain. They decided to take some rest now while waiting for the other teams to catch up with them, so they could take the ancient jade emblem from those other teams.
''They even set the formation to hide and protect their camp! What should we do now? Should we still carry on with our n? I still think that it is better for us to just target the other teams rather than them. They are too powerful and dangerous for our current strength.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tried to persuade.
But the real Tang Li Xue shook her head and replied: ''Ie here to hone myself and preparing myself for the more dangerous Fox Hunting Festival, so why do I need to avoid hardship and only choose the easier method. All right! Stop your whining and go now!''
''You say something like hone yourself as if you will do it yourself, but you still pushed me to do it in the end!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy focused her mind as she tried to lock on Meng Ying''s shadow and prepared to use [Shadow sh] to instantly teleported to Meng Ying''s shadow.
Why Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could lock at Meng Ying''s shadow when they were quite far away from each other right now?
It was because Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already put the [Tracker] from her [Mapping Sense] skill to Meng Ying when she exchanged move with Meng Ying in the tavern before!
Chapter 418: Clash Against Snow Fairy!
Chapter 418: sh Against Snow Fairy!
At first, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only afraid that the Snow Fairy, Meng Ying, would scheming to take revenge on her and ambush her on the way to the Cang Yang Mountain, so she decided to put the tracker on Meng Ying.
Who knew that it was Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instead that used the [Tracker] to ambush the Snow Fairy, Meng Ying, right now?!
''Sigh... Life was really unpredictable and full of twists and turns...'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought as her body instantly teleported to Meng Ying''s shadow.
The range of [Shadow sh] teleportation was only 300 meters.
So, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not have any other choice than using [Talisman of Stealthy] to turn invisible, then approached the camp by herself as near as possible until she almost touched the protective formation on their camp before activating [Shadow sh] to teleport toward Meng Ying''s shadow.
Although Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still invisible due to the effect of [Talisman of Stealthy], but Meng Ying still managed to detect her presence in an instant after Tang Li Xue teleported into Meng Ying''s tent.
"Who is there?! Come out!" Meng Ying shouted as she instantly woke up from her meditation state and increased her vignce to the maximum.
''How the hell she could detect me as soon as I teleported into her tent! It seems not only [Ethereal Form] divine ability cannot be used here, but also its [Conceal] passive divine ability is also not working at all!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy cursed in her heart.
But it was already toote for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to retreat now!
She would rather choose to rob the ancient jade emblems from Meng Ying with force or failed and die while doing it!
''Uh... Well, it is not like I am really going to die anyway. For the first time, I am a little bit d that I am only a perfect copy, so I will get resurrected nine dayster even if I die here.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in resignation as she fearlessly charged toward Meng Ying.
Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger w] plus [Final Strike]!
Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger w] was the strongest martial art that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could use right now, and the weapon skill, [Final Strike], would triple its attack power and added 30% attack speed on the top of it!
Moreover, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already used all types of buff talismans to strengthen herself before she used [Shadow sh] to teleport here, such as [Talisman of Giant Strength +3], [Talisman of Lightning Speed +3], [Talisman of Iron Skin +3], and so on.
It could be said Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already used her every ounce of strength she could muster in this attack!
Meng Ying immediately sensed the terrifying threating from behind her, so she quickly used her [Snow Dance Step] to swiftly turn around and threw her palm toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, who was already broke out from her invisible state!
[Frost Purgatory Palm]!
Meng Ying also mobilized most of her Freezing Qi and focused it onto her palm with the intention to mercilessly kill the intruder with this one attack!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Crouching Tiger w] shed face to face against Meng Ying''s [Frost Purgatory Palm]!
The powerful shockwave from the sh between Freezing Qi and Violent Sharp Qi shred all the things around them to pieces and covered the ground below their feet with a thickyer of ice.
Meng Ying''s right hand was wounded and bleeding profusely, while her long-sleeve waspletely torn into shred by the Violent Sharp Qi from Tang Li Xue''s [Crouching Tiger w].
Meng Ying took a few steps back. She tried to endure it and pretended to look strong, but in the end, she still could not hold it and fell on her knee, then coughed out several mouthfuls of blood.
Meanwhile, the figure of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was alreadypletely covered with a thickyer of ice. She already turned into Ice sculpture under the effect of Meng Ying''s extremely cold Freezing Qi.
The breath of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already greatly weakened as she already entered into aa right now.
''Damn it! That Meng Ying is really powerful! That Meng Ying could still counterattack so fiercely when my perfect copy ambushed her with [Crouching Tiger w] plus [Final Strike]! This is bad¡ My perfect copy ispletely frozen and already in a dying state. She could not do anything anymore in that condition. It seems I must change my n and enter the stage earlier now!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and put down Little Loki on her embrace to the ground, then reminded it to stay here and wait for her for a while.
Tang Li Xue tried to use [Swap] skill to change position with her perfect copy.
Luckily, all of the skills from [Twin Moons] divine ability such as [Swap], [Damage Transfer], [Shared Senses], and [Merge] seemed to still can be used in Cang Yang Mountain.
Tang Li Xue also did not really understand the reason why she could still use it, but she deduced that all of these skills might not be grouped with divine abilities, but with themonly used skills or spells like [Spirit Perception] and so on.
In Meng Ying''s eyes, Tang Li Xue seemed to recover from the frozen state in an instant, even though Tang Li Xue was actually only swapping location with her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue swiftly dashed toward Meng Ying with her full speed.
Tang Li Xue knew that she could not afford to waste even one second because the big explosion and the great shockwave from the sh between her perfect copy and Meng Ying definitely already attracted the attention of all core disciples from Five Virtuous Sect.
In fact, all of them should already rush toward here as soon as possible, and it would probably only take a few seconds for them to reach here.
"It is you!" Meng Ying was very shocked when she saw Tang Li Xue with her familiar ck cloak and fox mask appeared in front of her.
Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palms]!
[Water Mirage]!
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to use both [Drifting Cloud Palms] and [Water Mirage] to approach Meng Ying.
Her slender figure was split into eight and approached Meng Ying from eight different directions, while [Drifting Cloud Palms] made her figure looked blurry and hard to get hit.
Meng Ying tried to struggle to face Tang Li Xue, but she was already heavily wounded, and even her right hand was quite badly injured by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy before.
PPPUUFFF¡ PPPUUFFF¡ PPPUUFFF¡
Meng Yingnded a few kicks and hits to Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage], but all of those were only fakes as all of them exploded like a group of bubbles.
BBBAAAANGGG~!!!
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue managed to approach Meng Ying from behind andnded a palm hit onto her back!
Meng Ying coughed out another few mouthfuls of blood as she fell onto the ground.
Tang Li Xue could already saw several figures from the white fog that approaching fast toward her, so she immediately made a hand gesture and activated the two [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] stuck on Meng Ying''s body and her body.
Yes¡ When Tang Li Xuended a palm hit onto Meng Ying''s back, she was actually also sticking a [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] onto Meng Ying''s back.
In that instant, Tang Li Xue''s figure changed into Meng Ying, while Meng Ying''s figure changed to Tang Li Xue under the effect of [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3].
"Senior Sister Meng! We heard a very loud voice from here just now. Is there something that happened here? This..." One of the young girls from the White Crane Sect asked with a worried tone, but she immediately realized that Meng Ying''s tent has already been destroyed.
"Do not worry. I am all right. There is an intrudere into my tent to steal the ancient jade emblems, but I already defeat her." Tang Li Xue imitated Meng Ying''s voice with her [Lock-On Telepathy] while moved her lips as if she was really talking.
"Ohhh¡ So fast! Senior Sister Meng is really strong!"
"Yes¡ how could a random cultivator dare to sneak into Senior Sister Meng''s tent to steal?! That cultivator is really courting death!"
¡..
While all of the young girls from the White Crane Sect sung their praise for Meng Ying.
Tang Li Xue that still disguising as Meng Ying used [Snow Dance Step] to approach the real Meng Ying that was still in Tang Li Xue''s form.
She deliberately used [Snow Dance Step] in front of all of the White Crane Sect''s core disciples, so they would not doubt her disguise even a bit.
Meng Ying''s internal injuries became a lot worse because of Tang Li Xue''s strike, and she almost fainted on the spot, but she still used all of the strength left in her body to shout and warned her teammates: "Don''t believe¡"
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue already arrived right in front of her and stuffed Meng Ying''s mouth with her shoes before she could finish her words.
Meng Ying red at Tang Li Xue in disbelief and thought: ''How dare she stuff something so dirty into my mouth?! I will kill you... I will certainly kill youter!''
BBBAAAANGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue mercilessly struck Meng Ying''s head, who stillid on the ground, with her fist until arge bump appeared, and she fainted in that instant.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and started groped Meng Ying''s clothes to look for the ancient jade emblems.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to find a leather pouch that contained sixplete ancient jade emblems and four ''Heaven'' parts of ancient jade emblems.
''This is great! I am already halfway to sess! I only need to find a way out from this formation and escape as quickly as possible from here.'' Tang Li Xue thought about her next move.
Chapter 419: Decisive Move!
Chapter 419: Decisive Move!
Tang Li Xue shoved the leather pouch that contained sixplete ancient jade emblems and four ''Heaven'' parts of ancient jade emblems into her clothes.
"Oh? This fox masked woman is quite familiar¡"
"Isn''t she the girl we fought in the tavern before?!"
"Ah, you are right! She is the girl with fox mask in the tavern before!"
"Senior Sister Meng, since this person dare toe here to steal from us, why don''t we just kill her right now?"
Some other girls from White Crane Sect, who fought against Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in the tavern previously, recognized Tang Li Xue''s appearance in an instant, and one of them even suggested ying her as soon as possible.
"That is right! Let''s just kill her right now! If I do not remember it wrong, she has anotherpanion with her in the tavern before." The other girl from White Crane Sect unsheathed her sword and brandished it toward the neck of the fake ''Tang Li Xue'' that was still unconscious on the ground.
"HALT~!!! Stop there~!!!" Tang Li Xue who was still disguising as Meng Ying quickly stopped that girl from killing the unconscious fake ''Tang Li Xue'' who was actually the real Meng Ying.
All of the young girls from the White Crane Sect turned their heads and stared at Tang Li Xue in unison as if they were asking for further instruction from her.
Tang Li Xue felt a bit nervous when she was being stared at by all of the young girls from the White Crane Sect like this.
Tang Li Xue blinked her eyes again and again, then slowly cleared her throat before muttered with Meng Ying''s voice: "Err¡ I think she is still useful for us, so it is such a pity to kill her just like that. We can interrogate her about herpanion''s whereaboutster. We still need some ''Earth'' parts of ancient jade emblems. Who knows if herpanion will have some of ''Heaven'' parts of ancient jade emblems, right?"
Of course, Tang Li Xue has her own reason for stopping these young girls of the White Crane Sect from killing the unconscious fake ''Tang Li Xue''¡
First, Tang Li Xue felt that it was too cruel if she let this young core disciple kill their own most respected senior martial sister, especially when she already ''forcefully borrow'' their ancient jade emblems.
Second, the disguise that Tang Li Xue put onto the unconscious fake ''Tang Li Xue'' would be uncovered in an instant if the fake ''Tang Li Xue'' was attacked a few times or killed!
.....All right¡ Actually, the second reason was about 70% true, while the first reason was only about 30% true...
All of the young girls of the White Crane Sect nodded their heads in agreement after they heard Tang Li Xue''s excuse.
"Then let me tie her first and hang her upside down on the tree. Don''t worry, Senior Sister Meng! I will let her taste my 18 [Art of Tortures]!" One of the female core disciples from the White Crane Sect said as she took a rope and ready to tie the unconscious ''Tang Li Xue''.
Tang Li Xue became speechless andined in her mind: ''That is scary, all right! Are you girls really cannot think of anything else other than torturing and killing?! Sigh... These girls are really cold-blooded and uncute at all! Are all female cultivators act like this?''
"All of you do not need to worry too much about her. Just leave her here and let me handle it... You all can go back to your tent. We still need to fight and climb again tomorrow, so you all should have enough rest to recover yourselves to your peak condition." Tang Li Xue instructed all young girls from the White Crane Sect with a gentle tone.
All of the young girls widened their eyes in shock and disbelief.
The way they stared at Tang Li Xue started to change after they heard Tang Li Xue''s words.
Tang Li Xue could feel that all of the young girls from the White Crane Sect stared at her weirdly.
Tang Li Xue''s heart was beating faster as she became even more nervous. She decided to ask: "Is there something wrong? .....Did I say something strange?"
The young girls from the White Crane Sect nced at each other for a while, then one of them reluctantly replied: "Uh... No... It is just that... Senior Sister Meng, you usually never act like this... Usually, you always spend all your time to improve cultivation and never care about anything else... but now..."
"That is right... Usually, you always leave it for us to deal with it..." The other young girl from the White Crane Sect added.
''Oh, crap?! It seems I have misspoken! This Meng Ying is not the type that ''act cold outside but warm inside'' like Bingbing! She is the type that acts cold to anyone, including herself. Tsk, what should I do now?'' Tang Li Xue started to be more anxious and panic in her heart, but her expression still looked cold and expressionless like the real Meng Ying.
Her mind was also still very calm as she started to ponder her next move more carefully: ''Should I just continue disguising as Meng Ying like this and wait for the right time to get out from here? Or should I take Meng Ying as my hostage and use her to forcefully get out from here?''
After careful consideration, Tang Li Xue decided to keep disguising as Meng Ying like this and wait until morning.
At that time, they would definitely deactivate this protective formation, then she could look for some random excuse to split up from this team and escape toward the peak of Cang Yang Mountain after that.
"I¡ am only afraid that all of you haveck sleep and would not be able to fight properly. I do not want the elder from our sect to me me if some of you lost your life because of it." Tang Li Xue replied with her excuse.
The young girls from the White Crane Sect still felt suspicious since ''Senior Sister Meng Ying'' in front of them was really strange, but they still could not point it exactly which part of her was strange yet, so they decided to stay silent.
When Tang Li Xue tried to think of some way to make them believe in her more, she suddenly remembered: ''Wait a minute... I almost forget about my frozen perfect copy and Little Loki. I left both of them at the thick bushes right outside this protective formation. Sigh... How the hell I could bring them to escape with meter?! I wonder if they will identally get caught by someone if I wait for a few more hours until morning?''
Tang Li Xue suddenly felt all of her ns were starting to fall apart just because of one wrong move.
Actually, Tang Li Xue''s n at the beginning was for her perfect copy to take Meng Ying down with a sudden sneak attack after using [Shadow sh] to teleport into her room.
Then her perfect copy only needs to store the unconscious Meng Ying in her space pouch before recing Meng Ying''s ce and disguising as Meng Ying.
After that, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only needs to keep disguising as Meng Ying until she found a way to escapeter.
Who knew that Meng Ying could still detect Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy the moment Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy teleported into her tent and even retaliated so fiercely.
Not only Meng Ying managed to defeat her perfect copy, even the real Tang Li Xue almost got discovered by the young girl teams from White Crane Sect and besieged by them if she did not manage to beat Meng Ying on time and swapped their appearance with her [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3].
''If only I have one more second¡ No, even half more second is more than enough for me to...'' Tang Li Xueined in her mind, but suddenly, her system gave her a warning.
Ding!
[The time toplete (Entry Pass) quest is almost up! You only have 3 more hours toplete it!]
Tang Li Xue reflexively pped her own forehead in frustration after she read the warning notification from her system.
''Damn it! How can I forget that my current quest has a time limit?! So, I only have 3 hours left to reach the peak of Cang Yang Mountain and enter the Ground Inheritance Tablet?! What a big liar! How the hell this quest is only at ''normal'' level difficulty?! It should be at least in the hard or even nightmare level difficulty, right?!'' Tang Li Xue suddenly felt that she made a huge blunder and got scammed by her own system this time.
Looking at the eyes of the young girls from the White Crane Sect that still felt suspicious at her, Tang Li Xue decided to not waste any more time here and grabbed the fake ''Tang Li Xue'' on the ground, then used [Swap] skill again to switch the location with her perfect copy.
In that instant, the fake Meng Ying in front of the young girls from the White Crane Sect changed into a block of ice, which was actually Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy that got frozen by Meng Ying''s martial art.
This decisive move means that Tang Li Xue decided to abandon her perfect copy since she could not summon out or unsummon her perfect copy here in Cang Yang Mountain or Inheritance Ground Tablet!
Chapter 420: Relentless Pursuit!
Chapter 420: Relentless Pursuit!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in dejection, but she has no other choice than to do this.
The protective formation around the camp of the Five Virtuous Sect''s core disciple teams acted as confinement for Tang Li Xue instead right now, and it was created by the Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples.
She could not get out from the protective formation unless the Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples removed it tomorrow morning.
Then why Tang Li Xue did not use [Shadow sh] to teleport out from the protective formation again just like how she teleported into Meng Ying''s tent?
It was not that she did not want to do it but because she could not do it.
Tang Li Xue''s [Spirit Perception] and vision could not sense or see too far because of the white fog, so she did not dare to teleport blindly using [Shadow sh] because it was too risky.
That was also the reason why Tang Li Xue told her perfect copy to teleport into Meng Ying''s tent instead of doing it herself since her perfect copy would not die anyway if something untoward happened when she teleported... like if she stuck in the wall or tree after teleport...
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used the tracker from [Mapping Sense] as her pointer to teleport into Meng Ying''s tent, and the real Tang Li Xue could also use her perfect copy as a pointer to teleport out from the protective formation using [Shadow sh], but again¡ the risk for doing that was too high. What if her body stuck in the tree or bushes after she teleported?!
So, Tang Li Xue decided to abandon her dying perfect copy instead by using [Swap] skill to switch her location with her dying perfect copy.
It was really unfortunate since if Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only got seriously injured and did not get frozen and went into aa, the real Tang Li Xue could easily use [Shadow sh] to teleport out from the formation since her perfect copy could still see and sense everything around herself very clearly.
Tang Li Xue took the sleeping Little Loki into her embrace and sprinted as fast as she could toward the direction of the peak of Cang Yang Mountain.
Actually, Tang Li Xue already took out her white Wind Riding Bird and tried to ride it to the peak of Cang Yang Mountain, but it seems her white Wind Riding Bird was greatly weakened in this Cang Yang Mountain.
Tang Li Xue''s white Wind Riding Bird could not even fly at all or move too far before it exhausted after Tang Li Xue rode on it.
Tang Li Xue deduced that the prohibition area set on this Cang Yang Mountain did not only affect her but would also affect all of the beasts.
In short, all of the beasts that entered Cang Yang Mountain would be greatly weakened. That was the reason why there was almost no beast dared to enter climb Cang Yang Mountain.
Now, Tang Li Xue understood why Instructor Mei Lan said that only Tan Li Xue could enter Inheritance Ground Tablet.
''Wait a minute¡ what if I try to ride on my [Golden Winged Serpent] to Cang Yang Mountain''s peak?!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she tried to summon out her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent].
Unfortunately, she found out that she also could not summon out her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], in this Cang Yang Mountain.
''Damn it! So, this is the reason why I never see anyone summon out their martial soul after we entered Cang Yang Mountain until now. It is because no one can summon out their martial soul here! So, everyone can only purely rely on their martial arts to fight here!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in annoyance.
''Thankfully, I managed to snatch this Meng Ying right in front of those core disciples from White Crane Sect as insurance. Even if those core disciples from Five Virtuous Sect managed to catch up with me, I can use this fake Snow Fairy as a hostage.'' Tang Li Xue thought as she felt a bit reassured.
After considered it for a few moments while kept sprinting toward the peak of Cang Yang Mountain, Tang Li Xue finally decided to active [Merge] skill rather than have her perfect copy got killed by the young girls from White Crane Sect.
[Merge]: Merge the perfect copy with the user''s body. Doubled the user''s overall stats for 1 hour! (The copy needs to be sacrificed to activate this ability.)
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy that got left in the camp of White Crane Sect''s core disciples suddenly vanished in that instant, while the real Tang Li Xue felt that her overall stats doubled in an instant.
The camp of White Crane Sect''s core disciples already turned chaotic in panic and confusion when Tang Li Xue, who disguised as Meng Ying, suddenly vanished and reced by her frozen perfect copy, but the situation became even more chaotic when the frozen perfect copy suddenly vanished too right in front of their eyes right now.
However, the chaotic situation onlysted for a few minutes or so before the young girls from White Crane Sect calmed down, and they immediately decided to quickly notify the core disciples from the other Virtuous Sect about this incident.
Only the most elite core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect came into Cang Yang Mountain to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet, so they could immediately deduce what happened quite urately and decided to chase after Tang Li Xue.
As for how they could know where Tang Li Xue was heading to right now, it was because they have some way to detect the location of Meng Ying that was held by Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue already sprinted as fast as she could toward the peak of Cang Yang Mountain, and after she merged with her perfect copy, her current running speed was twice faster than her usual speed, but the core disciples'' teams from the Five Virtuous Sect could still slowly catch up to her using their own means.
After one hour, the effect from [Merge] skill finally faded away and Tang Li Xue''s speed decreased back to usual.
Without the effect of [Merge] skill, the core disciples'' teams from the Five Virtuous Sect could chase after Tang Li Xue much quicker than before, and it only took them ten to fifteen minutes for them to see Tang Li Xue''s back.
''They catch up really quick! Sigh¡ I only have less than 2 hours left to reach the peak of Cang Yang Mountain. I hope I can really reach there before the time is up.'' Tang Li Xue prayed in her heart.
Tang Li Xue turned her head around and frowned deeply when she saw the core disciples'' teams from the Five Virtuous Sect got closer and closer to her from behind.
She did not hesitate to use [Talisman of Lightning Speed +3] and [Talisman of Wind Step +3] on herself to further increase her speed.
One of the core disciples from Immortal Sword Sect immediately recognized Tang Li Xue when he saw Tang Li Xue turned her head around and eximed in surprise: "That girl in fox mask seems familiar¡ Eh, wait a minute¡ Isn''t that Young Miss Xiao?"
Ye Zhen, who was running at the very front of the team, also immediately recognized Tang Li Xue, and he currently hesitated on what to do.
"Senior Brother Ye, what should we do? Should we really help the girls from White Crane Sect to catch Young Miss Xiao?" The other core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect asked Ye Zhen.
All cultivators would have sharper senses, the higher cultivation they have. So, some core disciples of the White Crane Sect could still faintly hear the conversation between the core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect, even though they were already talking with an almost audible voice.
One of the young girls from the White Crane Sect increased her speed to approach the core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect and asked them with a suspicious tone: "What do you all say? Is that fox masked girl your acquaintance?"
The core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect opened their mouths to reply but hesitated on what to say.
Luckily, Ye Zhen quickly nced at them and gave a signal for them to shut up.
Ye Zhen smiled at the young girls from the White Crane Sect and replied: "No, we do not know her, but she is a bit simr to one of our friends that like to wear a fox mask to cover her face."
The core disciples from the White Crane Sect still red at Ye Zhen and the other core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect with suspicion and doubt.
But they did not have any free time to argue with Ye Zhen and the other core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect at this crucial time since they almost caught up to Tang Li Xue, so they could only choose to stop interrogating Ye Zhen and the other core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect right now.
When the young girls from the White Crane Sect chose to focus on chasing after Tang Li Xue again, the other core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect secretly nced at Ye Zhen to ask for his further instruction.
The other core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect immediately realized that Ye Zhen slowly decreased his speed to look as if he began to get exhausted. They instantly understood and imitated Ye Zhen too.
The ancient jade emblems that Tang Li Xue stole were not theirs anyway, and Meng Ying was also not their people, so the core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect decided to not help the young girls from the White Crane Sect to catch Tang Li Xue.
But of course, they could not tantly help Tang Li Xue since they carried the name of Immortal Sword Sect with them too. It would tarnish their sect''s name if the core disciples from the other Virtuous Sect spread the words that the core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect deliberately sent a person to steal the ancient jade emblems from them.
In short, they could only help Tang Li Xue to this extend.
Meanwhile, the core disciples from the White Crane Sect and Oracle Mountain Sect already started to assault Tang Li Xue from behind with their ranged attacks!
Chapter 421: Stairway to Inheritance Ground Tablet!
Chapter 421: Stairway to Inheritance Ground Tablet!
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] got sealed along with all of her other divine abilities and her Beast Cultivation System in this Cang Yang Mountain.
Even her [Spirit Perception] was severely limited here, and it could only sense everything in a radius of two or three steps around her, so she did not have any other choice than to turn her head and keep ncing at the core disciples of Five Virtuous Sects that chasing behind her to check the distance between them.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized that the distance between them kept getting closer and closer even though she already used [Talisman of Lightning Speed +3] and [Talisman of Wind Step +3] to increase her speed.
Tang Li Xue''s scalp went numb when she saw the core disciples from the White Crane Sect and Oracle Mountain Sect started to attack her from behind with their ranged attacks in unison after they managed to get a few meters behind her back.
[Flying Sword Intent]!
[Ice Sealing Arrow]!
[Sky Rendering? sh]!
[Searing Ray]!
¡..
Several tens of different kinds of attacks were hailing upon Tang Li Xue from behind.
Tang Li Xue would not feel that worried and anxious if these attacks shot toward her when she could use her divine abilities since she has many options to block them. She could condense wall or shield with her [Energy Maniption]; she could use [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge them; she could even st all of those attacks with [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs].
But now? She almost has no other option than to dodge it with [Snow Dance Step], or she would certainly turn into a bloody pulp!
Of course, she could also enter [Perfect Assimtion] mode with her Phoenix of Pride, but that was thest option she would take if she has no other option anymore.
The grass and soil under Tang Li Xue''s feet were covered by a thickyer of ice in an instant when Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to use [Snow Dance Step] to increase her speed further and started to run in a zigzag pattern!
BOOOOOMMM~!!!
BOOOOOMMM~!!!
BOOOOOMMM~!!!
¡..
All attacks struck the ce where Tang Li Xue has stood before and left several deep craters on the ground.
Tang Li Xue admitted that the effect of this [Snow Dance Step] was quite good, and the rain of the snowke looked really cool.
But the burst speed boost and flexibility of [Snow Dance Step] was still far inferiorpared to Tang Li Xue''s [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
It made sense since Tang Li Xue''s [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] was theplete merge between [Blink] skill and bloodline battle style, [Moonlight sh Step], while [Snow Dance Step] that she copied from Meng Ying was only a high-grade martial art and Meng Ying did not even train it to reach Transcendence State yet.
Tang Li Xue already started to miss her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] so badly now after she knew how great it was.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she managed to avoid their first attacks and gnashed her teeth in anger: ''These brainless people¡ Are they just a bunch of idiots with muscles or what?! Why the hell they dare to attack me so mercilessly like that?! Do they really forget that I still have that fake Snow Fairy in my grasp right now?!''
When the core disciples from the White Crane Sect and Oracle Mountain Sect wanted to simultaneously attack Tang Li Xue from behind again for the second time, Tang Li Xue took Meng Ying out from her space pouch and carried Meng Ying on her shoulder, so the core disciples from the White Crane Sect and Oracle Mountain Sect could see Meng Ying clearly.
Of course, Tang Li Xue already tied Meng Ying with her [Blood Sealing Chain] when she was still unconscious before, so Meng Ying could not even struggle free from Tang Li Xue''s grasp now.
Meng Ying could only re at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with anger and killing intent. If her re can kill people, Tang Li Xue would surely already die hundreds of times right now.
"Despicable!"
"Insolent! How dare you kidnap our Senior Sister Meng!"
"Coward!"
"Release her now and fight me one on one if you dare?!"
¡..
The core disciples from the White Crane Sect and Oracle Mountain Sect began to repeatedly curse and provoke Tang Li Xue out loud, but they did not dare to attack Tang Li Xue again from behind.
Tang Li Xue did not reply to any of them and only rolled her eyes in disdain, then thought: ''All right¡ I already confirm it. So, they are really a group of brainless idiots. Here I have your beloved Senior Sister Meng in my hand, then what makes you think that I will not use her as my shield?! In fact, I can even toss her to block a few of your attacks before!''
Tang Li Xue started to ponder her next move carefully while kept sprinting at her full speed.
''Should I stop for a moment and use this fake Snow Fairy''s life to threaten them to not chase after me? Nope... It is clearly a bad move. If they managed to surround me when I stopped running and threatening them, the situation would be even worse. Sigh... Looks like I have no other choice than keep running like this until I reach the peak of Cang Yang Mountain and enter Inheritance Ground Tablet.'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
Tang Li Xue kept running at full speed and using both [Talisman of Lightning Speed +3] and [Talisman of Wind Step +3] again and again after the effect was run out, but she did not keep using [Snow Dance Step] since her Qi was still quite limited because her current cultivation was only at Rank 1 Acupuncture Opening Stage.
Meanwhile, the current cultivation of all core disciples from Five Virtuous Sects was already at Rank 9 or even Peak of Acupuncture Opening Stage, and some of them were ready to breakthrough to Foundation Establishment Stage in Inheritance Ground Tabletter.
So, their running speed was still faster than Tang Li Xue even when she already used [Talisman of Lightning Speed +3] and [Talisman of Wind Step +3].
Although they did not dare to attack Tang Li Xue because she used Meng Ying as her shield, but they slowly caught up to her and encircle her from all directions while kept looking for an opening or opportunity to bring her down and took Meng Ying back safely from her.
''There are already five people in front of me, four people on my right side, and six people on my left side. As for the people right behind me...
Three, six, seven, eight... oh well, there are surely a lot of them... Damn it! Just how far is that Cang Yang Mountain''s peak?! I already kept running with my full speed for almost two hours!'' Tang Li Xue started toin in her mind.
Then suddenly¡
SWWOOOOSHHH~!!!
Several core disciples of Oracle Mountain Sect whipped the ropes towards Tang Li Xue from four different directions with the intention of tying Tang Li Xue''s limbs!
While the young girls of the White Crane Sect started to target Tang Li Xue''s feet with their ice-type ranged attacks to freeze her feet and slow her down.
''I knew they are up to something no good!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in her mind.
She immediately used Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palms] and skillfully deflected the ropes with her palms.
Tang Li Xue''s steps also became erratic and ice-type ranged attacks from the young girls of the White Crane Sectpletely missed.
''Awesome! This Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palms] is convenient and easy to use! It seems this martial art is really suitable for me! Maybe because I am currently cultivating ck Tortoise part of [Four Mythical Guardian Beast]?'' Tang Li Xue thought in delight.
Tang Li Xue swiftly used [Water Mirage], and her slender figure was split into many in an instant.
Each of Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones ran in different directions and made the core disciples of Five Virtuous Sect confused.
"What a despicable move?! What should we do now? we cannot attack her since Senior Sister Meng is still in her hands, but she will get away if it continues like this!"
"So what?! We should just attack her! I bet Senior Sister Meng will not mind if we hurt her a bit as long as we manage to catch that thief!"
"Are you crazy?! What if we identally kill Senior Sister Meng?!"
¡..
The core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect started to argue in agitation and confusion.
The real Tang Li Xue quickly took this chance to take out three [Talisman of Stealthy +3] from her space pouch and used them on herself, Meng Ying, and Little Loki who sat silently on her right shoulder below her cloak.
After a few minutes, the core disciples of Five Virtuous Sect still decided to not attack Tang Li Xue carelessly and only used ropes to bind Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones.
When Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones were bound by the treasured ropes from core disciples of Five Virtuous Sect, they burst like a bubble and turned into the water.
"All of them are fakes?! Where is the real one?" One of the core disciples from the Oracle Mountain Sect eximed in surprise.
"Do not need to worry! No matter where she runs to, we can track her down easily as long as she is still holding Senior Sister Meng''s leather pouch that contains our ancient jade emblems!" The young girl from White Crane Sect took out Bagua Compass from her spatial ring and led the other core disciples to chase after Tang Li Xue again.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue, who already ran quite far from the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect, managed to arrive at the long jade staircase.
The long staircase seems to be made from a material simr to white jade, and it looked really extravagant and majestic.
Chapter 422: Why Is It So Heavy?!
Chapter 422: Why Is It So Heavy?!
''Staircase? Is this staircase heading to Cang Yang Mountain''s peak?'' Tang Li Xue thought while frowned deeply.
She actually did not really like the straight environment like this majestic staircase since there would be no big trees and thick bushes to cover herself and made her hard to be seen by the people who chase after her right now.
With the straight environment here, the core disciples of the White Crane Sect and Oracle Mountain Sect could easily aim at Tang Li Xue''s back from behind.
''Tsk¡ There are tall cliffs on the left and the right side of this staircase. It seems I have no other way to reach the Peak of Cang Yang Mountain other than climbing this staircase.'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance, but she did not slow down her speed at all and climbed the staircase without any hesitation.
It only took a few minutes for the core disciples of Five Virtuous Sect that chased after Tang Li Xue to arrive at the staircase too.
"Bwahahahaha~!!! What an idiot?! How dare she try to climb up the staircase to Inheritance Ground Tablet while being chased by us?!" One of the male core disciples from Oracle Mountain Sectughed mockingly at Tang Li Xue''s attempt to climb the staircase.
The young girls of White Crane Sect sneered mockingly at Tang Li Xue too, and one of them even said: "I bet that despicable thief does not know that this staircase is actually the trial to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet. That is the only reason why she still decided to run toward here. If she knew about the effect of this staircase, she would certainly try to escape from our pursuit first before attempting to climb up this staircase."
"Since that thief does not have any clue about something as crucial as that, it means she does not have any connection to anyone Virtuous Sect. I am really sorry to doubting you all before, Senior Brother Ye and fellow cultivators from Immortal Sword Sect." The other young girls from White Crane Sect saluted and apologized politely to all core disciples from Immortal Sword Sect.
"It is all right. Let''s just forget about it. Misunderstanding like that is quitemon, especially since that thief can freely enter and escape from our protective formation." Ye Zhen replied in a rxed manner with a gentle smile on his face.
However, Ye Zhen''s heart was actually very anxious and worried about Tang Li Xue right now.
Even several male core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect also nced at Ye Zhen with a worried expression.
It was obvious that these male core disciples of Immortal Sword Sect, who already befriended with Tang Li Xue in Feng Empire''s Imperial Pce before, did not want Tang Li Xue to get killed or got caught and tortured to death by the core disciples of the White Crane Sect and Oracle Mountain Sect.
Ye Zhen already started to ponder carefully on what he should do if Tang Li Xue really got caught by themter.
"All right, let''s stop chatting for now and chase after that thief again!" The young girl of the White Crane Sect impatiently urged the others.
"Why do we need to be so hurried?! Let''s just rx! Do you really think that thief can really climb to the Peak of Cang Yang Mountain in one go without taking any time to rest or adapting herself? That is absolutely impossible, all right?!" The male core disciples from Oracle Mountain Sect said with a sarcastic tone while sneered mockingly.
The young girl of the White Crane Sect rolled her eyes and replied: "I know it is really impossible. But what if that thief decided to do something stupid or suicidal like jumping from the cliff on the right or left side of the staircase to escape from our pursuit while bringing our Senior Sister Meng? I dare to bet that despicable thief also does not know that no one can fly in Cang Yang Mountain even if they are using any flying treasure."
The expressions of all core disciples from the White Crane Sect turned grim after they heard it, and they decided to quickly chase after Tang Li Xue again.
Yes, the entire area of Cang Yang Mountain was heavily restricted. Not only the beast cultivation system would get sealed but no one could fly in this area too.
Well¡ If everyone could fly directly to the Peak of Cang Yang Mountain to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet using flying beast or flying treasure like flying sword after they managed to theplete Ancient Jade Emblem, everything would be meaningless since the reason why the Human Race ancestor built the Inheritance Ground Tablet was to train and test the younger generation of Human Race before letting them im their reward in Inheritance Ground Tabletter.
¡..
¡
.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue finally learned the wretched effect of this staircase after she climbed it for a while.
"Huff¡ Huff¡ Huff¡ What the hell?! There is something really wrong with this staircase?! Why my body is getting heavier the higher I climb it up?!" Tang Li Xue grumbled while her breath became more and more ragged.
Tang Li Xue already sensed that something was wrong with this staircase after she had climbed the first few steps, but she still did not have any clue about where it had gone wrong.
After she had climbed more than thirty steps, she finally realized that her body became heavier and hard to move like it was made from lead, but at least, she could still move her body after she mustered some effort.
After she had climbed more than eighty steps right now, Tang Li Xue felt that her body became so heavy like she was carried a big boulder on her shoulder. Her breathes turned rough, and she could hardly move any of her limbs.
Tang Li Xue started to hesitate if she should rest for a bit to recover her stamina or keep climbing this staircase until she reached the peak.
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, the core disciples of Five Virtuous Sect already climbed the staircase too and almost managed to catch up to her.
Although Tang Li Xue could not see very clearly because of the white fog, but she could still hear their step get closer and closer from behind her.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and decided to take out [Talisman of Giant Strength +3] and [Talisman of Greater Force +3], then used them on herself.
As for Meng Ying, Tang Li Xue already threw her into the space pouch when she felt something was not right about this staircase, if not, Tang Li Xue would certainly not be able to carry Meng Ying anymore after she took eighty steps.
Both [Talisman of Giant Strength +3] and [Talisman of Greater Force +3] have the effect of increasing Tang Li Xue''s strength, so she immediately felt that her body became lighter.
Tang Li Xue quickly increased her speed and climbed higher to keep her distance from the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect.
Tang Li Xue knew that she certainly could not go down this stair anymore or she would get caught by the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect, so she decided to climb the staircase as high as she could and used the pressure effect from the staircase to prevent them getting close to her.
She did not have any other choice anyway since her hunch said that the Inheritance Ground Tablet was certainly located at the top of this staircase.
But Tang Li Xue had miscalcted it this time¡
Those core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect have much higher cultivation than her, so they clearly have more strength and endurance than her!
As time passed, the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect slowly but sure getting closer and closer to Tang Li Xue from behind.
After Tang Li Xue had climbed more than 130 steps, Tang Li Xue was already very exhausted, and she almost could not take another step anymore.
Her vision turned blurry because of her extreme fatigue, and she could only crawl very slowly to climb another step forward as if she was carrying a heavy mountain on her back.
In fact, Tang Li Xue certainly could even reach this far without the buff from [Talisman of Giant Strength +3] and [Talisman of Greater Force +3].
The core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect already arrived three to five meters behind her, but they did not look any better.
All of them were already sweating profusely and breathing heavily.
They could only drag their feet to climb the stair, and each step they took was very slow as if each of their foot were tied to a very heavy iron ball like a prisoner so they would not be able to run away from the jail.
The core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect did not even have any breath to waste to curse or shout at Tang Li Xue anymore, but they certainly kept cursing Tang Li Xue in their hearts for her persistence.
However, there was no doubt that the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect were kept decreasing the distance between them and Tang Li Xue.
It would probably not take long for the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect to catch up with Tang Li Xue.
But there was one more problem to tackle even if the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect managed to catch up with Tang Li Xue¡ How could they arrest Tang Li Xue and save Meng Ming when they could not even raise their hands and could only slowly drag their feet to move?!
Chapter 423: Give a Hand!
Chapter 423: Give a Hand!
The chasing game between Tang Li Xue and the core disciples of Five Virtuous Sect was actually reallyical since their speed was very slow like the racing game between snails, even the walking baby might be even faster than them now.
If anyone saw them without knowing or feeling the immense pressure from the staircase, they would certainlyugh mockingly at them.
Tang Li Xue finally could no longer move all of her limbs after taking 142 steps, and she could only lie down limply on the stair while breathing heavily.
The pressure from the staircase was already too unbearable for her to handle, and she almost got crushed by the immense pressure.
Her internal organs almost fell apart because of it, and some of them were already injured quite badly right now.
The correct way to pass this staircase trial, ording to the information from the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect, was to take 5 to 10 steps first and then let their bodies adapted to the pressure for a few hours.
They only need to repeat that process again and again until they reached the top. That process would temper their bodies, train their physical strength, and strengthen their will. All of those would make the foundation of their cultivation became much more solid than before.
What Tang Li Xue had done right now by quickly climb to 142 steps at once was actually very harmful to herself, and the probability of getting killed by the immense pressure was exceedingly high.
The core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect actually never thought that Tang Li Xue could climb this far at once before. They estimated that Tang Li Xue could only climb to 50 to 60 steps before she would sumb to the pressure and could no longer be able to move.
But all of those were no longer important since the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect finally managed to catch up to Tang Li Xue.
5 steps¡
3 steps¡
1 steps¡
"Hehehe¡ Huff¡ Finally¡ Huff¡ We caught you~! Huff¡ Wait¡ Huff¡ until we¡ Huff¡ rest for a while¡ Huff¡ before we¡ Huff¡ kick you down from¡ Huff¡ here¡" One of the young girls from White Crane Sect murmured resentfully while kept panting crazily.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and mustered all of her strength to force herself to move, but she could only make her limbs twitches slightly.
''Is this it for me? Am I fated to die here? There is no way, right? Is there still something I can do?! Something like... Sigh... It seems I have no way other than entering [Perfect Assimtion] Mode with Phoenix of Pride, right? I wonder if I can withstand this overwhelming pressure and reach the Peak of Cang Yang Mountain after entering [Perfect Assimtion] Mode with Phoenix of Pride...'' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind.
Of course, she would never enter [Perfect Assimtion] Mode with Phoenix of Pride just like that.
She decided to wait until the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect approached her before entered [Perfect Assimtion] Mode with Phoenix of Pride and caught the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect off guard by exploding them to nothingness with her me of Pride.
But Tang Li Xue clearly had forgotten someone other than herself here who could help her out from this situation.
Little Loki sat in a rxed manner beside Tang Li Xue, and it seemed that Little Loki was not affected by the pressure from the staircase even one bit.
Little Loki could already guess what Tang Li Xue had nned in her mind from the resolute glint that shed in her eyes.
Little Loki rolled its third eye in disappointment. It could actually help Tang Li Xue anytime but decided to not do it because it wanted Tang Li Xue to quickly grow stronger.
However, Little Loki also did not want Tang Li Xue to expose her [Perfect Assimtion] Mode with Phoenix of Pride to the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect yet.
Many people already watched Tang Li Xue used her me of Pride in Tang Feng City before, but only two people realized that Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue me of Pride was a high-ranking me spirit, Crown Prince Feng and Elder Yang (Nascent Soul Stage elders were only secretly protecting Elder Yang from afar, so they only knew that Tang Li Xue kicked Elder Yang at that time).
Crown Prince Feng has already died, and Elder Yang actually has some deep connection with Tang Li Xue, so he would not spread the news that Tang Li Xue actually has assimted with a high-ranking me spirit.
If more people had seen her using me of Pride, the probability that more people would recognize it as the high-ranking me spirit would increase too.
The worst case was that the news got spread, and Tang Li Xue would be targeted by many cultivators because of her me of Pride.
The reason for that was because the high-ranking me spirit was too much more valuable than any high-ranking elemental spirit!
From alchemist, refiner, cksmith, crafter, chef, and so on, which sub-profession did not use me?!
By possessing the high-ranking me spirit, their ability in their respective sub-profession would certainly increase dramatically!
Also, sh head-on to the more than thirty core disciples of Five Virtuous Sect with cultivation much higher than her here waspletely unwise.
In the end, Little Loki decided to give Tang Li Xue a little bit of help.
Little Loki jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s chest and slowly opened its always closed pair of terrifying dark eyes a bit.
Little Loki only opened it a bit, but it was already more than enough to negate the effect of the staircase around Tang Li Xue!
In that instant, Tang Li Xue felt her entire body and limbs were extremelyfortable.
The air finally could fill her lungs, and her blood could flow freely in her veins. Different from before that she could hardly breathe as if she was squashed by a big mountain, and even her blood had so much difficulty at flowing in her veins.
Tang Li Xue suddenly stood up and took a deep breath of fresh air that was filled with dense spiritual energy.
But she was also raising her guard to the maximum because she was afraid that the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect would be freed from the tremendous pressure as well, just like her.
Of course, it was only Tang Li Xue''s blind guess since there was no way Little Loki would help the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect to lift the heavy pressure on them too.
Tang Li Xue quickly took a few steps back to keep her distance from the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect that was already so close to her.
The core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect were so surprised when Tang Li Xue could suddenly move freely as if she waspletely unaffected by the heavy pressure from the staircase.
They widened their eyes and dropped their jaws in shock, but they still could not shout, ask, or curse Tang Li Xue, since they were still panting heavily because of extreme exhaustion.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she realized that all core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect were still affected by the heavy pressure from the staircase and still could not move freely like her.
She started to ponder for a while about the reason why the pressure from the staircase could no longer affect her all of a sudden.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to guess that Little Loki was the one who helped her to negate the pressure effect from the staircase.
Tang Li Xue happily lifted Little Loki in delight and rained it with kisses. She also gave Little Loki several Umon-Grade beast cores as snacks while said her thanks to it.
After pleasing Little Loki, Tang Li Xue stared at the core disciples of the Five Virtue Sects who were still breathing hard and could barely even move their limbs.
After pleasing Little Loki, Tang Li Xue stared at the core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect that were still panting heavily and could hardly even move their limbs.
Tang Li Xue grinned mischievously at them and began to walk to approach them.
The young girls from the White Crane Sect and the core disciples from Oracle Mountain Sect started to palpitate in fear and horror.
Imagine if you were in a ce where you could hardly move your body while your enemy could move freely without any restriction... your enemy could torture, grill, strip, or even kill you ording to her will.
That was what the core disciples of the White Crane Sect and Oracle Mountain Sect felt right now!
Tang Li Xue pointed her index finger to one of the female core disciples and shouted with a smug tone: "You! Yes, you there! You said you will kick me down from this staircase, right? Now, I will let you feel it first with your own body!"
"I¡ Huff¡ I am not¡ Huff¡" The female core disciple from White Crane Sect tried to deny it, but Tang Li Xue already mercilessly kicked her abdomen without waiting for her to finish her words.
BAAAAANG~!!!
"AAAAHHHHHHH~!!!" The female core disciple from White Crane Sect shouted out loud in pain and fright.
Her body flew backward like a cannonball, then crashed heavily onto the lower rung.
She was spurting a few mouthfuls of blood in that instant, but it did not stop until that!
Her body started to roll down the staircase...
BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG...
Her body fell heavily on each rung because of the immense pressure effect from the staircase and left a long trail of blood on the staircase.
Tang Li Xue''s lips twitched a bit in shock. She never thought that the immense pressure effect from the staircase would make the fall damage became much more lethal.
''Err¡ Am I too cruel to her? Actually, I only want to teach her a lesson, but that fall is really dangerous, and it can even kill her, right? Err¡ I actually nned to kick them down one by one from this staircase, but what if I identally kill all of them¡ Sigh... It is really not easy to be a good person... I mean a good fox...'' Tang Li Xue groaned in her mind.
Although Tang Li Xue has an upper hand right now, but it did not mean that she would always have an upper handter.
If she decided to spare these core disciples of Five Virtuous Sect here right now, but what if she met again with them inside Inheritance Ground Tablet, would they spare her too, just like how she spared them?
Tang Li Xue even afraid if these core disciples of the Five Virtuous Sect would ask the elders from their sect, that still waited outside of Cang Yang Mountain right now, to catch or kill her after she went out from Inheritance Ground Tablet one monthter!
Chapter 424: Entering Inheritance Ground Tablet!
Chapter 424: Entering Inheritance Ground Tablet!
''Forget it... I will just let them off for now. I can easily escape from them anyway after I got out from Cang Yang Mountainter since my divine abilities and Beast Cultivation System would recover.'' Tang Li Xue thought while shook her head.
As for if she met with them again inside Inheritance Ground Tablet? Tang Li Xue already thought of some way to prevent that.
Tang Li Xue walked toward the leader of Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples and tried to take the leather pouch that contained the ancient jade emblems from his clothes.
It was easy to recognize the leader of each Virtuous Sect since the other core disciples always asked or listened to their respective leader''s orders like Meng Ying and Ye Zhen.
The leader of Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples tried to resist, but he could not even move any of his limbs properly under the effect of enormous pressure, so how could he even oppose Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue easily took the leather pouch from the leader of Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples.
When she checked the content of the leather pouch, Tang Li Xue found eightplete ancient jade emblems and two ''Earth'' parts of ancient jade emblems.
With this, Tang Li Xue actually managed to get a third of totalplete ancient jade emblems in this Cang Yang Mountain!
Tang Li Xue sneered smugly and thought: ''If I bring all of theseplete ancient jade emblems with me into Inheritance Ground Tablet, doesn''t it mean the number of mypetitors would decrease by a third?! Uwehehehe¡ I am so smart!''
Tang Li Xue nced at Ye Zhen and the other core disciples from Immortal Sword Sect, who were standing at the very back.
Actually, Tang Li Xue also wanted to take theirplete ancient jade emblems to decrease the number of herpetitors even more, but she also realized that Ye Zhen and the other core disciples from Immortal Sword Sect did not attack or even try to catch her, like the core disciples from the other Five VIrtuous Sect before.
Tang Li Xue sighed and decided to not take theirplete ancient jade emblems because of it.
Tang Li Xue took out Meng Ying, who was still bound with [Blood Sealing Chain], from her space pouch and threw her back toward her group from White Crane Sect.
She did not need Meng Ying anymore as her hostage after she entered the Inheritance Ground Tablet anyway.
When Tang Li Xue threw Meng Ying away, she also forcefully pulled back the [Blood Sealing Chain] to take it back.
BAAAAANGGG~!!!
Meng Ying''s body spun on mid-air because of Tang Li Xue''s pull as she crashed hard onto the other female core disciples from the White Crane Sect.
"AAAAHHHH~!!!"
"GYAAAA~!!!"
The female core disciples from the White Crane Sect screamed out loud as Meng Ying''s body crashed onto them, and they toppled down from the stairs. The process was like a bowling ball striking the pins.
Their fall started snowballing as the female core disciples from the White Crane Sect crashed onto the core disciples from Oracle Mountain Sect, and even Immortal Sword Sect too.
From two to five, from five to eight, from eight to eleven, and so on¡
In the end, all the core disciples from the Five Virtuous Sect rolled down from the stairs together until they reached the bottom of the stairs.
Tang Li Xue blinked her topaz blue eyes again and again in surprise and thought: ''Err¡ I swear I never n for that to happen¡ That fall looks quite bad¡ I hope no one died¡''
But Tang Li Xue did not n to climb down the stairs to check their condition. She only prayed for their safety and continued to climb the stair to reach the top.
When Tang Li Xue reached the top, she was in awe when she saw a gigantic ancient stone tablet standing firmly at the highest peak of Cang Yang Mountain.
"Woah~! Is this giant monument the one called Inheritance Ground Tablet? I wonder what should I do to enter it?" Tang Li Xue murmured in confusion.
Tang Li Xue took out one of theplete ancient jade emblems from the leather pouch and held it up toward the gigantic ancient stone tablet.
WEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
The gigantic ancient stone tablet shone brightly all of a sudden, and Tang Li Xue was pulled into the ancient stone tablet without any chance to resist at all.
¡..
¡
.
When Tang Li Xue opened her eyes, she could not see anything and everything around her was so dark.
"I cannot even see anything here even with [Night VIsion] skill?! Oh, wait a minute¡ Is my [Night VIsion] skill also sealed here? Sigh... I cannot sense anything, and I cannot even hear anything here...What the hell am I supposed to do then?!" Tang Li Xueined while frowned deeply.
Fortunately, that situation did notst long, and Tang Li Xue immediately saw a glimmer of lighting toward her.
That glimmer of light gradually got bigger and bigger before it finally swallowed Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue tried to blink her eyes to see what in front of her, but the scene in front of Tang Li Xue was very blurry right now.
The scene in front of her eyes gradually got clearer, and Tang Li Xue suddenly found herself in the middle of the graveyard.
Thend was barren that was iparably dead, and there was thicker white fog covered this area.
The pungent smell of rotten corpses assaulted Tang Li Xue''s nostrils. It was made sense since this ce was littered with skeletons and dried corpses.
There was no flower or weed in this ce, not even a bit of greenery could be seen.
It seemed like the nts or weeds were unable to endure the fearsome aura of death.
"Urggghhh¡ Why the hell is it like this?! I thought Inheritance Ground Tablet is a heaven-like ce filled with fortuitous opportunities and divine medicine! Tsk! I have a really bad feeling about this ce!" Tang Li Xue groaned while frowned even deeper.
Tang Li Xue could not stand the eerie atmosphere in this ce, so she immediately walked in the random direction in the hope to get out of this ce as soon as possible, but suddenly¡
KREEEK¡ KRAAAAK¡ KREEEEKK¡ KRAAAAK¡
Tang Li Xue heard unpleasant sounds around her.
It was actuallying from the skeletons and dried corpses!
All the skeletons and dried corpses started to raise and stand up after they sensed Tang Li Xue''s living aura.
All of them were wearing tattered armor. These armors might have been tough and extraordinary in the past, but as time passed, the Spirit Qi within them was lost, and they had long be rags.
Those skeletons and dried corpses were now wearing those armors and holding broken weapons to fight.
Tang Li Xue''s body shuddered a bit in surprise and dread, but she quickly calmed down herself as she saw many skeletons and dried corpses started to charge toward her from all directions at once!
Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palm]!
Tang Li Xue raised both of her palms, and the [Blur] weapon effect from her [Critical Strikers] automatically activated as both of her palms turned blurry and hard to see.
When the skeletons and dried corpses brandished their broken weapons toward Tang Li Xue, she spun both of her palms to repel them!
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
Their battle styles were extremely simple and savage. There was no use of martial arts at all, just the simplest swinging of weapons to attacks non-stop.
However, from their shing weapons'' loud and vigorous sounds, it was evident that the battle prowess of these dried corpses and skeletons was far from weak.
The strength of each skeleton and dried corpse could bepared to normal mid-rank Acupuncture Opening Stage cultivators. It was obvious they were heroic skeletons or corpses from ancient times!
Even Tang Li Xue''s expression turned solemn when she felt her palm became numb after she only parried the attacks from several of them.
[Water Mirage]!
BWWWOOOSSHHH~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure split into many identical figures in an instant, and they started to dash toward several different directions in unison.
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, these ancient skeletons and dried corpses could not see, smell, or hear. They detected Tang Li Xue based on her living aura and vitality from her body.
Even though Tang Li Xue already used [Water Mirage] to create many of her clones, the ancient skeletons and dried corpses did not get confused by them and still persistently attacking the real Tang Li Xue with their broken weapons.
"Damn it! They are only brainless corpses and skeletons, but they are much more annoying than the living people!" Tang Li Xue muttered in annoyance as she took several side steps to avoid their attacks.
The skeletons and dried corpses kept chasing after Tang Li Xue and shed their broken weapons toward her again.
This time Tang Li Xue did not avoid or parry their attacks, she used her Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palm] and their shes passed through her body harmlessly.
Their shes were not actually really pass through her body like when Tang Li Xue used her [Ethereal Form], she only swayed her body right and left really fast and made it looked like that.
Tang Li Xue quickly took a step forward and thrust both of her palms toward the chests of two skeletons.
BAAANG~!!! BAAANG~!!!
The two skeletons shattered to pieces in one hit and their remains were thrown backward for several meters.
But after a moment, the bones of those two skeletons flew and assembled by themselves again, then returned to usual as if they did not receive any attack from Tang Li Xue.
Chapter 425: New Quest! Defeat 1,000 Lesser Evil Spirits!
Chapter 425: New Quest! Defeat 1,000 Lesser Evil Spirits!
Tang Li Xue kicked several other skeletons and dried corpses until their body shattered, but they immediately recovered to normal again in a few moments.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and eximed in annoyance: "These creatures are really troublesome! Besides that, can they even be killed?"
Meanwhile, the number of resurrected skeletons and dried corpses kept increasing steadily.
From 30 to 50, from 50 to 80, and so on¡
Some of them approached Tang Li Xue from the farther area, while most of them crawled out from the barren ground.
Currently, there were already more than 100 of them besieging Tang Li Xue from all directions and continuously shed their weapons toward her.
The pressure Tang Li Xue was currently facing also keep increasing, and she was starting to get anxious since she could not even kill a single one of them while their numbers kept increasing at an rming speed.
Ding!
-----------------------------------------------------
[Entry Pass Quest Completed!]
[Gained: Level +1, Stat Point+100 (+25), Skill Point+15(+4), 80(+20) Deity Coins]
Ding!
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level achieved Rank 2 Acupuncture Opening Stage! All Stats +500]
-----------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue sighed out in relief after she received thepleted quest notification from her system.
''That is actually quite a close one. I should be more careful with the time-limited quest in the future.'' Tang Li Xue warned herself.
Tang Li Xue''s mind kept pondering her next move while she kept using her Transcendence State [Drifting Cloud Palm] to agilely dodge or parry all of the attacks from the skeletons and dried corpses.
''Should I just run away from here? But where do I need to run to? I do not even know any damn thing about this Inheritance Ground tablet! Furthermore, these creatures are really annoying! They keep resurrecting nonstop, and I cannot even move around freely because of them.'' Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
When Tang Li Xue was still busily defending herself against the armies of skeletons and dried corpses, her system suddenly gave her another notification¡
Ding!
-----------------------------------------------------
[Quest: (1st Inheritance Trial) Defeat 1,000 Lesser Evil Spirits in 6 hours to get the Inheritance of Evil Ghost Emperor! (0/1000)]
[Difficulty: Normal]
[Reward: Level +1, Stat Point+100 (+25), Skill Point+15(+4), 80(+20) Deity Coins]
-----------------------------------------------------
"What the hell?! Another time-limited quest?! System, are you kidding with me?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in anger and surprise.
She could not even kill one skeleton or dried corpse right now since they kept recover to normal in a few moments even after Tang Li Xue struck them with her full strength, but her system gave her quest to kill 1,000 of them!
Tang Li Xue even almost failed to dodge the attacks from several skeletons and dried corpses because of that sudden quest.
For the first time, their broken weapons finally managed to tear Tang Li Xue''s ck cloak and white robe, then grazed her snow-white skin, leaving a few scratches on her upper arm, shoulder, and left thigh.
Then Tang Li Xue also realized another horrible truth¡
Her [High-Speed Regeneration] did not help her heal the wound like usual!
It seems even her [High-Speed Regeneration] and most of her other skills could not work in Inheritance Ground Tablet!
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned even more solemn.
''Damn it! Doesn''t it mean if I got fatally injured here, I can only depend on my [Talisman of Regeneration]?! This is really bad! It takes quite a long time for [Talisman of Regeneration] to recover any internal or severe wounds. If I got wounded here in the middle of these evil spirits encirclement, I would certainly die!'' Tang Li Xue pondered carefully in her mind.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to decide to stop holding back and used her me of Pride since she could no longer afford to keep her me of Pride as secret in this life-threatening situation.
It was not like anyone could see her using me of Pride here anyway.
BBBWWOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
Deep-blue-colored me burst out from Tang Li Xue''s slender figure.
Several armored skeletons and dried corpses near her burned to nothingness in that instant.
"All right¡ I must admit that it feels really good to burn enemies with my me of Pride!" Tang Li Xue muttered while giggled happily.
Tang Li Xue carefully controlled the deep-blue me of Pride and condensed a pair of deep-blue me wings on her back.
[Phoenix Wing]!
Tang Li Xue pped the deep-blue [Phoenix Wing] on her back to fly, but no matter how hard she ps her [Phoenix Wing], her body still stayed on the ground.
"Sigh¡ As I expected, it seems no one can fly in Inheritance Ground Tablet even with a pair of wings. It is really unfortunate¡" Tang Li Xue muttered in disappointment.
Tang Li Xue thought that she could find the direction easier if she could fly and look at the Inheritance Ground Tablet from above, but it seems she was still too na?ve.
How could the owner or creator of Inheritance Ground Tablet let all the trial entrants escape from the inheritance trial as they liked by flying?!
Since Tang Li Xue could not use her [Phoenix Wing] on her back to fly, then she decided to use it for fighting!
When another wave of armored skeletons and dried corpses charged toward her from all directions, Tang Li Xue suddenly spun her body, and the deep-blue [Phoenix Wing] on her back scorched several skeletons and dried corpses to nothingness.
Tang Li Xue nced at the kill count in her quest log to see how many Lesser Evil Spirits she had killed.
(23/1000)
Tang Li Xue suddenly felt that she lost all of her motivation and did not want to do this anymore¡
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and thought: ''All right, cheer up Tang Li Xue! You have managed to y 23 Lesser Evil Spirits in less than one minute! 1000 Lesser Evil Spirits in 6 hours should be easy, right?! There are 360 minutes in 6 hours after all! Logically speaking, if I can y 23 Lesser Evil Spirits every minute, I canplete the quest in less than 1 hour, right?!''
After she pondered it for a few moments, her topaz blue eyes lit up in excitement, and she started to use her deep-blue me of Pride to kill the skeletons and dried corpses in a frenzied manner.
[Fire Wall]!
With one wave of her hand, Tang Li Xue created a deep-blue firewall to burn all the skeletons and dried corpses in front of her at once.
(47/1000)
Tang Li Xue took a few moments of that time when the skeletons and dried corpses could not approach her topress her me of Pride until it formed a small deep-blue fireball on the top of her palm that emitting extremely high temperature.
Then she threw thepressed deep-blue fireball onto the direction where the skeletons and dried corpses were the most packed.
[Fire Bomb]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
(69/1000)
A devastating explosion destroyed many skeletons and dried corpses into nothingness in an instant, and Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue me of Pride started to spread around, then burning the nearby skeletons and dried corpses!
It did not take long before those burning skeletons and dried corpses were reduced to nothingness by the extremely hot me of Pride.
(87/1000)
¡..
(106/1000)
Tang Li Xue kept using her me of Pride to kill the armored skeletons and dried corpses. It only took her less than 5 minutes to kill more than 100 of them.
Tang Li Xue thought she could kill 1000 Lesser Evil Spirits easily in less than 1 hour if she kept doing it like this, but unfortunately for her, the armored skeletons and dried corpses started to do something out of her expectation right now.
The armies of armored skeletons and dried corpses stopped rushing toward Tang Li Xue and started to congregate in one spot.
"What are they doing?" Tang Li Xue murmured while frowned deeply in confusion.
Tang Li Xue''s bad feeling got stronger when she saw that the armies of armored skeletons and dried corpses started to blend and fuse into something much more horrible.
Tang Li Xue decided to not wait for them to finish the process and attacked her fiercely with her me of Pride!
[Fire Breath]!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and blew arge amount of deep-blue me of Pride toward the armies of armored skeletons and dried corpses that still in the process of fusing themselves.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The extremely hot deep-blue me of Pride flooded the armies of armored skeletons and dried corpses and swallowed them into the sea of deep-blue mes in only a few seconds.
Logically, Tang Li Xue should have killed at least 30 to 50 armored skeletons and dried corpses at once with her [Fire Breath], but when she nced at her kill count in her quest notification¡
(106/1000)
"Impossible! How could I fail to kill even one of them with my [Fire Breath]?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise and disbelief.
But she immediately understood the reason for that after she saw a more than 10 meters tall armored giant skeleton with a terrifying ominous aura rise from the middle of the deep-blue mes'' sea.
"What the hell is that creature¡?!" Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in shock.
The giant armored skeleton stared menacingly at Tang Li Xue. It did not have any eyes, but a pair of red lights inside its skull made Tang Li Xue shuddered a bit in fear.
RRROOOOOAAAAAAAARRRR~!!!
The giant armored skeleton dropped its jawbone and roared out loud.
Tang Li Xue quickly closed her ears, but she still felt very ufortable, and her consciousness started to fade away.
The roar from the giant armored skeleton was not a sound attack like Instructor Mei Lan''s divine ability, but a mental attack that assaulted its target''s soul directly!
While Tang Li Xue was still staggered and stunned by its mental attack, the giant armored skeleton jumped out from the sea of deep-blue me and pounced toward Tang Li Xue while brandished the giant saber in its grasp toward her!
Chapter 426: All Out Battle Against 4 Giant Armored Skeletons!
Chapter 426: All Out Battle Against 4 Giant Armored Skeletons!
Little Loki, who was always lying down silently on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder all the time, quickly stood up with a stern expression. It was ready to help Tang Li Xue at the most crucial time.
BBBOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The giant armored skeleton swung its giant saber down with all of its strength. The moment its giant saber crashed down, the thick death Qi that wrapped the giant saber destroyed the barren ground in a radius of five meters around it.
The thick death Qi from the giant saber even extended for more than 10 meters and created a deep crack on the ground in front of the giant armored skeleton.
If this devastating attack really hit Tang Li Xue, there was no doubt that she would be crushed and turned into a pool of blood.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue managed to regain her consciousness at thest moment and swiftly jumped to her right side, then roll for a few times right before the giant saber struck down the ground where she stood before.
Although she managed to avoid the fatal strike from the giant armored skeleton, but the shockwave from the collision moderately injured her. Some sliver of Death Qi even already seeped into her body and wreak havoc on her internal organs.
Tang Li Xue swiftly took out several talismans from her space pouch such as [Talisman of Regeneration +3] to recover her wounds, [Talisman of Lightning Speed +3] and [Talisman of Wind Step +3] to increase her speed and reflex, [Talisman of Giant Strength +3] and [Talisman of Greater Force +3] to increase her overall strength, and so on.
The giant armored skeleton gripped its giant saber harder and swung the giant saber horizontally toward Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue quickly jumped up to dodge the giant saber, but unfortunately, that sh was only a feint move!
The giant armored skeleton charged forward toward Tang Li Xue and used its armored body to crash onto Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue twisted her body on mid-air to dodge it, but her move was one step toote. She could only raise both of her hands and crossed them in front of her chest to defend herself.
BBBAAAAAAAAANNNGGGG~!!!
The giant armored skeleton''s body crashed heavily onto Tang Li Xue until she flew backward like a cannonball and collided hard onto the barren ground, creating a deep crater on it.
Tang Li Xue coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, and her right hand was twisted to a strange angle.
Tang Li Xue coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood. Even her right hand was broken and twisted to a weird angle because of the force from the crash.
''You are kidding with me, right?! That giant skeleton is not only be more powerful and sturdier, but it can even use martial arts and feint move now?! Damn it! Isn''t it too OP to face any Acupuncture Opening Stage Cultivator?! I am 100 percent sure that this giant skeleton can easily thrash those core disciples from Five Virtuous Sect!'' Tang Li Xueined and cursed in her heart.
When Tang Li Xue saw that the other armies of skeletons and dried corpses merged into another three giant armored skeletons, Tang Li Xue realized that it was the time for her to fight all out or she would really die here soon enough.
''Oiii~!!! Wake up, you Lazy Bird! It is the time for us to get serious or we will really get killed here!'' Tang Li Xue shouted to wake the sleeping Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian.
YYYIIIIIIIII~!!!
The Phoenix of Pride looked really pissed off as Tang Li Xue called it Lazy Bird, but Tang Li Xue did not bother to argue with it and urged the Phoenix of Pride to merge with her.
[Perfect Assimtion]!
The scorching deep-blue me exploded out from Tang Li Xue''s slender body, and the temperature around the graveyard drastically increased in an instant as if a tiny sun was descending onto this ce.
The thick Death Qi in the graveyard seems thin out and reced by the extremely hot fire elemental.
The [Pure Sun Dragon] Bloodline in her body and veins that seems sleeping after she entered Cang Yang Mountain began to awaken again and became more active than ever.
Like an awakened mythical me dragon, Tang Li Xue could faintly hear a dragon roaring from her blood as every cell in her body that has a very high affinity with fire elemental assimted perfectly with the Phoenix of Pride.
Even the nearby armored giant skeleton unconsciously took a few steps backward when it sensed the sheer intense heat emitting out from Tang Li Xue''s body.
Tang Li Xue red at the armored giant skeleton in front of her.
The deep-blue mes were flickering fiercely at the deepest part of her eyes as she said: "All right! It is my turn now!"
[Sun Dragon sh]!
BBBOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xuepressed the me of Pride and detonated it to propel herself forward. Her speed was so fast even though she could not change the direction midway when she used her [Sun Dragon sh].
Tang Li Xuepressed her me of Pride onto her left hand and swung it toward the armored giant skeleton!
[Sun Dragon Fist]!
When Tang Li Xue swung her left fist, the fist created from thepression of deep-blue me of Pride erged in an instant and struck the armored giant skeleton heavily!
BBBAAAAAAAAANNNGGGG~!!!
The armored giant skeleton raised its giant saber to block it, but its giant saber melted in an instant and its arms shattered by Tang Li Xue''s strike, even its gigantic body flew tens of meters backward before it fell heavily onto the barren ground.
After entering [Perfect Assimtion] mode with Phoenix of Pride, Tang Li Xue''s control over her me of Pride raised so much.
Thanks to that, the temperature and explosive power of her me of Pride also increased by several levels!
Tang Li Xue took a nce at her kill count in her system''s quest log to see how much it increased after she defeated such a big skeleton.
(106/1000)
''What a tough big guy?! Even that attack still failed to kill it! Oh well¡ if one attack is not enough, then I only need to strike it for another three or five times until it turned to ashes!'' Tang Li Xue decided as she used [Sun Dragon sh] again to move toward the armored giant skeleton that already lost both of its bone arms and half of its giant body.
But Tang Li Xue could sense it that the Death Qi from this graveyard started to recover the armored giant skeleton''s body.
''This is really troublesome! I better crush itpletely now before it fully recovers!'' Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she decided in her mind.
Tang Li Xue still could not use her broken right hand, but she could still use her left hand to pound the armored giant skeleton with her [Sun Dragon Fist].
But the other three armored giant skeletons did not wait until Tang Li Xue crushed one of them and charged fearlessly toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue ignored them and focused on destroying the half-destroyed armored giant skeleton in front of her.
She condensed another fist of deep-blue me and struck the armored giant skeleton again and again.
After striking it four times, the armored giant skeleton finally burned into nothingness under Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue me of pride.
(206/1000)
''Woah~! 100 kill count per giant skeleton. Not bad! So, I need to kill eight more toplete the quest. I wonder what I will get from this... whatever Emperor Inheritance¡'' Tang Li Xue licked her pink lips in excitement and curiosity.
When Tang Li Xue destroyed one armored giant skeleton, the other three armored giant skeletons already surrounded Tang Li Xue from three different directions, and they started to attack Tang Li Xue from her right, left, and front side at once.
Tang Li Xue never had a n to fight the three armored giant skeletons head-on at once, so she quickly avoided all of their attacks with Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palm] and got out from their encirclement using [Sun Dragon sh].
''Tsk! Unfortunately, I cannot use [Sun Dragon w] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] since all of my divine abilities got sealed here. If not, I can win this battle much easier.'' Tang Li Xue grumbled in her mind.
Suddenly, Tang Li Xue''s eyes shone brighter as a sh of inspiration came into her mind.
"Ah! That is right! Indeed, I cannot use [Sun Dragon w] here, but I can try to use tiger w instead!" Tang Li Xue eximed in excitement.
Tang Li Xue no longer hesitated and put it into practice.
Tang Li Xue started topress the me of Pride on her left hand and applied it to the martial art, Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger w].
Tang Li Xue''s left hand executed a w move and brandished toward one of the three armored giant skeletons from behind.
RRROOOOOOAAAAAARRR~!!!
A deafening roar of a tiger echoed through the entire graveyard as a tiger w condensed from me of Pride erged in an instant and tore that armored giant skeleton to pieces.
The ferocious sharp Qi and extremely high temperature from the me of Pride blended into one as it turned that armored giant skeleton into nothingness in only a few seconds.
"Awesome~! I never thought that the result would be much better than I expected!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise and joy.
Tang Li Xue started to grinning happily as she used the new technique she just created to kill the other two armored giant skeletons.
She named the technique, [me Tiger w].
"Eh¡ Is it over already?" Tang Li Xue murmured as she felt strange because there was no more armored giant skeleton that appeared.
She nced at the kill count in her system''s quest log again.
(506/1000)
"I still need to kill 500 more¡ But I cannot even see or find another evil spirit anymore here. I wonder if they scared of me and went to hide?" Tang Li Xue''s expression turned sour.
Just when Tang Li Xue started to get anxious since she has no more enemies she could kill toplete her quest¡
RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡
The barren ground at the entire graveyard started to shake violently.
"What?! An earthquake at this timing?!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she frowned deeply.
CRACK¡ CRACK¡ CRACK¡
The ground under her feet started to crack.
The cracking kept spreading until it formed a deep chasm and the extremely thick Death Qi burst out from inside the chasm.
Tang Li Xue''s body suddenly shuddered violently when she saw a skeleton arm as big as the previous armored giant skeleton reached out from the deep chasm.
Yes, it was only a skeleton arm, but it was already as big as a giant armored skeleton over ten meters tall!
It was really hard to imagine how big this giant skeleton after all of its bodying out from the deep chasm!
"Err¡ Excuse me! Can I just cancel this quest and run away from here right now?! I am really scared of that giant creature, okay?!" Tang Li Xue tried to ask her system.
Chapter 427: [Spiral Sphere Bomb]!
Chapter 427: [Spiral Sphere Bomb]!
Of course, her system would never answer Tang Li Xue''s meaningless question, so Tang Li Xue could only think of some way to defeat this super big skeleton.
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to use her newly created technique, [me Tiger w], to tear the gigantic arm of the super big skeleton.
Tang Li Xuepressed the deep-blue me of Pride onto the tip of her left hand''s fingers and waved it toward the gigantic arm that appeared from the deep chasm.
When Tang Li Xue waved her left hand, the deep-blue me of Pride umted on her left hand erged in the form of a giant tiger w.
BBBAAAAAAAAAANNNGGG~!!!
This [me Tiger w] was powerful enough to tear the previous four armored giant skeletons easily, but it could not even make a dent on the gigantic arm of this super big skeleton!
''Damn it! How could that giant pile of bones be so hard and sturdy?! Just how many tons of milk has it already drunk?!'' Tang Li Xue stunned in shock whileined in her heart.
The gigantic pair of skeleton arms that already went out from the deep chasm held tightly onto the barren ground. It looked as if the super big skeleton wanted to climb out from the deep chasm.
It did not take long for the giant skull of the super big skeleton to appear from the deep chasm!
Tang Li Xue started to get anxious since she could not even leave a scratch on the super big skeleton when she was already in the [Perfect Assimtion] mode with Phoenix of Pride and used her most powerful technique.
Yes... Among her other skills and techniques, [me Tiger w] could be said the most powerful since itbined the destructive force and extremely high temperature of me of Pride with the Ferocious Sharp Qi from the Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger w].
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth as she refused to give up and decided to put her palms together topress her me of Pride on the space between her palms.
She put all of her concentration to carefully control the deep-blue me of Pride and focused her me of Pride on one point.
Tang Li Xue tried to condense [me Bomb], but thepression volume and density of this [me Bomb] were onpletely different levels from the previous [me Bomb] she ever made.
But after 10 seconds or so, the deep-blue colored [me Bomb] that was already as big as a tennis ball started to get warped out of shape as if it was ready to explode anytime.
''Sigh¡ My control over me of Pride is only at this level even when I am still in [Perfect Assimtion] mode with Phoenix of Pride?! So, this is the limit of mypression?!'' Tang Li Xue felt a bit disappointed at the result of her [me Bomb]''s extremepression.
The current [me Bomb] was already several times more powerful than the previous [me Bomb] version, but Tang Li Xue''s hunch felt that it was still far from enough to destroy the super big skeleton that still trying to crawl out from the deep chasm.
Tang Li Xue bit her lips and tried topress more of her me of Pride into [me Bomb], but it only became more unstable and almost out of control.
Just when she almost gave up and decided to throw the enhanced [me Bomb] toward the super big skeleton, Tang Li Xue''s mind suddenly struck by a sh of inspiration again.
''Wait a minute¡ what if... Just what if I add the power of rotation into the center of me Bomb]?!'' Tang Li Xue thought as her eyes shone brighter in excitement.
This was the brilliant idea she got from the most powerful skill of the main character in her favorite anime.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and concentrate to add spin onto her [me Bomb].
She started to imagine a small cyclone at the center core of [me Bomb]¡
It did not mean that she made the ball of [me Bomb] spinning, but thepression energy of [me of Pride] that was spinning.
After Tang Li Xue added the power of rotation, the [me Bomb] became much stabler and destructive than before.
Then she began topress more of her [me of Pride] and added it into the [me Bomb] to increase the explosive power and the extremely high temperature to reach an unprecedented level.
2 times¡
4 times¡
6 times¡
8 times¡?!
The explosion power and the scorching temperature of current [me Bomb] already reached eight times of the previous enhanced [me Bomb]!
The current [me Bomb] was already as big as a ser ball, and the destructive power emanating from it was more than enough to make anyone, including Tang Li Xue herself, tremble in fear.
Tang Li Xue did not dare to add more of her [me of Pride]''spression into the [me Bomb] since she felt it would go out of control and explode in an instant if she did so.
"So, this is my new [me Bomb]¡ Tsk, tsk, tsk¡ Not bad at all for my first try, right?! Let''s just call it¡ [Spiral Sphere Bomb]!" Tang Li Xue muttered in satisfaction.
Tang Li Xue nced at the super big skeleton and carefully approached it.
The upper half of the super big skeleton''s body already crawled out from the deep chasm with great difficulty.
The upper half of the super big skeleton was already more than twenty meters tall! So, it means this super big skeleton''s full-body size was probably already reached fifty meters tall.
RRROOOOOOOAAAAAARRR~!!!
The super big skeleton seems to realize that Tang Li Xue approached to hurt it, so that super big skeleton roared out loud with deafening sound to attack Tang Li Xue''s soul with its mental attack.
Tang Li Xue threw her [Spiral Sphere Bomb] toward the super big skeleton''s open mouth just right when it roared out loud tounch its powerful mental attack!
She quickly used her [Snow Dance Step] and [Sun Dragon sh] to keep her distance from the super big skeleton so the [Spiral Sphere Bomb]''s explosion would not affect her, but its powerful mental attack managed to strike Tang Li Xue from behind and suddenly stunned her.
Luckily, her [Snow Dance Step] and [Sun Dragon sh] still propelled her body to jump away from the super big skeleton¡
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The devastating explosion was triggered when Tang Li Xue''s [Spiral Sphere Bomb] entered the super big skeleton''s mouth.
The terrifying destructive shockwave was rolling around like a giant tsunami that could swallow any town.
Even Tang Li Xue would not get away unscathed even though she has already thrown off tens of meters from the super big skeleton because of her [Snow Dance Step] and [Sun Dragon sh].
She would probably get badly injured and entered aa if the shockwave from the great explosion hit her body from behind.
Luckily, Little Loki decided to lend her a hand again this time...
Little Loki opened its always closed pair of mysterious ck eyes that looked like a pair of ck holes.
In that instant, the space around Tang Li Xue was isted, and both of them were teleported fifty meters from there.
The devastating explosion created a giant deep-blue colored dome and destroyed everything into nothingness within that scope.
After a few moments, the thick smoke raised to the sky like a gigantic mushroom.
This time, it took Tang Li Xue a few moments longer than before to wake up from her stunned state and dizziness.
Even so, she was stillpletely dumbfounded and shocked when she witnessed the after-effect of her [Spiral Sphere Bomb].
Tang Li Xue jumped while eximed in excitement: "Awesome! This is really awesome! I bet this is more than enough to turn that stupidly big skeleton to¡"
But before Tang Li Xue could finish her words¡
RRROOOOOOOAAAAAARRR~!!!
A deafening roar echoed from the middle of the explosion area.
Although, there was thick smoke and dust that covered the entire area, but Tang Li Xue could easily guess that the deafening roar wasing from the super big skeleton.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned pale as she murmured in disbelief: "Impossible¡ How could it remain alive after being hit by my [Spiral Sphere Bomb]! Is that gigantic skeleton really impossible to defeat?! So, my only choice is only to run away from it?! Then what about my quest?! Should I abandon it too?!"
Tang Li Xue took a peek at her kill count in her system''s quest log, and just like what she had already expected, the kill count still remained at (506/1000).
"What should I do?! Should I really run away from here now? But my quest¡" Tang Li Xue started to hesitate, but it did not take long for her to realize that something was not right.
''Eh, wait a minute... Let me read the current quest again¡'' Tang Li Xue decided to check her current quest log again.
-----------------------------------------------------
[Quest: (1st Inheritance Trial) Defeat 1,000 Lesser Evil Spirits in 6 hours to get the Inheritance of Evil Ghost Emperor! (506/1000)]
[Difficulty: Normal]
[Reward: Level +1, Stat Point+100 (+25), Skill Point+15(+4), 80(+20) Deity Coins]
-----------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently when she saw the difficulty of the quest.
''How the hell the difficulty is only at normal?! It should be Hard or even Nightmare, right?'' Tang Li Xue thought while frowned deeply.
But the system would never lie to Tang Li Xue! Since it said the difficulty was only at the Normal level, then it means Tang Li Xue could stillplete it with some effort, and the quest should be only at low risk too.
"It seems I did it in a wrong way since the very start¡ The quest indeed said I must defeat 1,000 Lesser Evil Spirits in 6 hours, but it never said that I must defeat them in head-on battle¡ There should something... or maybe a correct way to defeat 1,000 Lesser Evil Spirits? with only a little effort!" Tang Li Xue muttered while her eyes were glittering brighter.
Chapter 428: Evil Ghost Emperor!
Chapter 428: Evil Ghost Emperor!
Tang Li Xue''s mind was working at the fastest rate to find the solution to get out of this precarious situation.
It was true that the upper part of the gigantic skeleton was alreadypletely destroyed by Tang Li Xue''s [Spiral Sphere Bomb] before, but it immediately recovered back to normal after it absorbed the thick Death Qi from inside the deep chasm.
It seems the only way to defeat it was only to destroy its bodypletely with [me of Pride] without leaving anything behind just like what Tang Li Xue had done to the previous armored skeletons and dried corpses before.
But looking at the size of the more than fifty meters tall super big skeleton, Tang Li Xue knew that she would not be able to do it unless she entered [War Goddess Mode] by assimting with both Yaya and Phoenix of Pride.
Currently, this super big skeleton almost climbed out from the deep chasm, and it looked pretty angry at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was 100 percent sure that this super big skeleton would certainly crazily hunt her if it managed to climb out from the deep chasm, so right now was her only chance to think of a way to defeat it.
"Eh¡? Wait a minute... The skeletons and dried corpses can recover because they absorb the thick Death Qi around this graveyard. Then where this thick Death Qie from? If the source of the gigantic skeleton''s energy is from the Death Qi, then what will happen if I make the Death Qi vanished?" Tang Li Xue murmured as her eyes were glittering brighter.
RRROOOOOOOAAAAAARRR~!!!
The fifty meters tall gigantic skeleton roared to the sky as it jumped out from the deep chasm.
The entire graveyard shook violently when the fifty meters tall gigantic skeletonnded on the barren ground.
The super big skeleton turned its giant skull head and the pair of red light inside its empty eyes red menacingly at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue stared back fearlessly at the fifty meters tall gigantic skeleton and even smiled mockingly at it.
The fifty meters tall gigantic skeleton roared furiously at Tang Li Xue again, but Tang Li Xue has already guarded her consciousness tightly this time, so the effect was only minimal to her.
Then the fifty meters tall gigantic skeleton sprinted toward Tang Li Xue.
Each of its heavy steps made the ground shook violently.
Just when that fifty meters tall gigantic skeleton almost stomped Tang Li Xue to death, Tang Li Xue''s slender figure disappeared all of a sudden.
[Shadow sh]!
Tang Li Xue used [Shadow sh] to teleport to the shadow near the deep chasm.
Tang Li Xue sneered at the gigantic skeleton while waved at it as if saying goodbye to the gigantic skeleton before jumping into the deep chasm.
''The thickest Death Qi is gushing out from this deep chasm, so the source of the Death Qi should being from here. If I can find the source of the Death Qi and stop it from producing out any Death Qi, then it would not take long for that gigantic skeleton to run out of gas and stop moving! As I expect from myself, so smart!'' Tang Li Xue analyzed carefully while giggled proudly.
Little Loki rolled its third eye in disdain as if it wanted to say: ''Oh, please... You only realized it now after you almost lost your life, and you still dare to say that you are smart?!''
Tang Li Xue agilely jumped from the right wall to the left wall, then from the left wall to the right wall, and so on to decrease her falling speed.
After a few moments, Tang Li Xuended into the deepest part of the chasm, but the scene in front of her eyes waspletely different from what she imagined before.
The deepest part of the chasm was actually looked like an ancient temple made from solid stone.
There were many giant stone statues of demons and ghosts lined on the left and the right side of the long corridor.
The long corridor itself was dark, but the eyes of those giant stone statues of demons and ghosts shone with the mysterious green light illuminating the way.
Tang Li Xue raised her vignce to the maximum since this ancient temple looked so sinister and eerie.
RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡ RUMBLE¡
Tang Li Xue heard the loud rumbling noise from above, and when she tilted her head upward, she saw many boulders fell from above.
She quickly used [Snow Dance Step] and dashed forward to avoid the fallingrge boulders without any hesitation while grumbled: "Tsk, that super big skeleton surely stubborn! It still thinks to hunt me with boulders even after I got here!"
Of course, the gigantic skeleton was not stupid enough to enter the deep chasm again, since it would certainly get stuck again like before if it jumped back into the deep chasm.
It rather chose to wait for Tang Li Xue outside while kept throwing the giant boulders to harass Tang Li Xue.
After sprinting for a while, Tang Li Xue arrived at therge stone gate.
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a few moments before decided to push open therge stone gate.
When Tang Li Xue opened therge stone gate, the thicker Death Qi burst out from behind the stone gate.
The high-concentration Death Qi pricked Tang Li Xue''s delicate white skin, it made Tang Li Xue really ufortable and dizzy, but it also means that she was closer to the source of the Death Qi.
Behind the huge stone gate was actually a big hall with a luxurious-looking altar in the center of it.
Tang Li Xue stepped into the big hall while vigntly observe the surroundings and muttered: "This big hall looks like a tribute hall¡ Eh, what is that?"
Tang Li Xue''s eyes focused on the item floating at the top of the luxurious-looking altar.
It was a ck-colored stick¡ or rather a ck-colored wand that looked ancient and mysterious. The highest concentration of Death Qi was swirling around the ck wand, and it made Tang Li Xue could not see the ck wand clearly.
"There is it! That ck wand is definitely the source of Death Qi! Now, what should I do? Should I take it? But that thing looks ominous and dangerous¡ Maybe I should destroy it instead?" Tang Li Xue started to hesitate as she approached the luxurious-looking altar.
After pondered for a while, Tang Li Xue decided to reach out her hand to take the ck-colored wand that floating on the top of the altar.
If she was at the other ce than Inheritance Ground Tablet, Tang Li Xue would surely choose to destroy it instead, since she did not want to take any risk.
But this ce was Inheritance Ground Tablet. The purpose of this ce was for the younger generation of human cultivators to inherit the knowledge and treasures from their predecessors.
BBBWWWOOOSSSHHH~!!!
When Tang Li Xue grasped the ck-colored wand, the thick Death Qi around the graveyard started churning and sucked into the wand.
Tang Li Xue smiled victoriously at the scene in front of her eyes and giggled happily: "Uwehehehe¡ It seems my guess is correct this time."
What Tang Li Xue did not expect that even the super big skeleton was actually also got sucked into the wand!
The scene was really bizarre since the super big skeleton became transparent like a ghost when it sucked into the wand in Tang Li Xue''s hand.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and thought that the inheritance trial was finally over, but when she wanted to check the status of her quest at her system¡ the memories that were not her own started flooding into her mind!
Evil Ghost Emperor¡
It was the name of the owner of this inheritance site.
Evil Ghost Emperor was actually the native cultivator of the Lightwind Continent more than 70,000 years ago.
But after his cultivation reached the peak of Nascent Soul Stage, it was stuck at the bottleneck for hundreds of years until he decided to go on a journey toward the other continent.
Evil Ghost Emperor was wandered from one continent to another until he finally reached the biggest continent, Central Continent.
He joined one of the powerhouses at the Central Continent and managed to improve his cultivation to an unimaginable level because of the thick Spiritual Energy and the rich inheritance at the Central Continent.
But his happiness did notst long since all of the cultivators at the Central Continent must fight Undead Race after they were powerful enough.
The reason why the weaker cultivators were not allowed to fight Undead Race was that they would only be cannon fodder and threw their lives meaninglessly away.
Meanwhile, the Undead Race could raise the dead to be their foot soldier, the meaningless death on the human side would only add the number of the Undead Race''s armies.
In the fierce war against Undead Race, the Death Qi from the Undead Race managed to invade the body of the Evil Ghost Emperor when he fought against the Undead Race''s armies, and that crippled his cultivation.
At that point, even the superpower behind Evil Ghost Emperor abandoned him, and he reached the lowest point in his life.
However, the Evil Ghost Emperor refused to give up and decided to study the power of the Undead Race in depth. He even dared to infiltrate into Undead Race Camp and stole some of their arts.
He researched the Undead Race power and arts for more than fifty years before he finally managed to regain back his cultivation¡ No, he actually reached the level far higher than he ever reaches before!
Human Race with the power of Undead Race!
Chapter 429: The Amazing Inheritance of the Evil Ghost Emperor!
Chapter 429: The Amazing Inheritance of the Evil Ghost Emperor!
No one among the Human Race or Beast Race could ever wield the power of the Undead Race.
The Evil Ghost Emperor was probably the only exception for that.
For thousands of years, the Evil Ghost Emperor contributed a lot to the war against the Undead Race at the Central Continent.
On contrary to his title as Evil Ghost Emperor, his attitude and behavior were actually far from evil. He confronted the Undead Race''s armies so many times and saved countless people on the Central Continent with his armies of living corpses and skeletons.
Even though the Undead Race higher-up prioritized hunting down the Evil Ghost Emperor, but no one could kill him until the end.
The Evil Ghost Emperor died not because he got killed by anyone but because his lifespan was over.
When his lifespan was almost over, the Evil Ghost Emperor still did not have any offspring because he was always too busy with his research about the powers and dark arts of the Undead Race, so he never married in his entire life.
The Evil Ghost Emperor decided to leave his inheritance in his hometown, Lightwind Continent, in this Inheritance Ground Tablet, so the young generation in Lightwind Continent could follow his step and be strong enough to face Undead Race in the future.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her eyes after she processed all of the information in her mind, but she was still stunned for a while in awe.
Tang Li Xue did not inherit the memories of Evil Ghost Emperor, perhaps because the Evil Ghost Emperor himself was worried that the consciousness of the younger generation who obtained his inheritance would not be strong enough to handle it.
The information in Tang Li Xue''s mind was only about Evil Ghost Emperor''s short history, but that was only the least important among all of the information she got from the ck wand.
There was still the information about the ck wand in her grasp and the instruction on how to wield it properly!
"Rank 832nd in Heavenly Treasure Ranking List¡ [Scepter of Disaster]¡" Tang Li Xue slowly muttered in amazement.
Only 1,000 best of the best treasures since ancient time until now could get Immortal World''s Heavenly Law recognition and enter Heavenly Treasure Ranking List. The ck wand in Tang Li Xue''s grasp was exactly one of those 1,000 best Heavenly Treasures in Immortal World!
Even Tang Li Xue''s famous Inscription master, Teacher Li Wei, could not create any treasure at the level of Heavenly Treasures!
Of course, this [Scepter of Disaster] was not created by Evil Ghost Emperor himself¡
In fact, this [Scepter of Disaster] was one of the most important treasures from Undead Race, and the Evil Ghost Emperor actually stole it from them.
This [Scepter of Disaster] was so powerful beyond belief, and it has so many functions. Even Evil Ghost Emperor himself was only able to discover some of its functions through his lifelong research.
Such as producing and controlling Death Qi, storing the corpses and souls of dead creatures, greatly enhanced dark arts and curse spells, and many more¡
Other than that, Tang Li Xue also got Evil Ghost Emperor''s overpowered cultivation manual, [Death Revtion Sutra] along with many dark arts and curse spells.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have any n to abandon her current cultivation manual, [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art], and changed it into [Death Revtion Sutra].
Without cultivating [Death Revtion Sutra], Tang Li Xue would not have Death Qi in her Dantian, and she could not use all of the dark arts and curse spells from Evil Ghost Emperor''s inheritance.
It was such a pity since [Death Revtion Sutra] was a very powerful cultivation manual, but Tang Li Xue has three strong reasons why she decided to not cultivate it.
First, the requirement to cultivate [Death Revtion Sutra] was too harsh. Actually, Tang Li Xue could no longer cultivate it since she was already cultivating [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art].
If she really wanted to cultivate [Death Revtion Sutra], Tang Li Xue must cripple her Dantian first and destroyed the cultivation foundation that she built with [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art], then start all over again, just like Evil Ghost Emperor.
Second, [Death Revtion Sutra] was designed for Human Race to cultivate, while Tang Li Xue was a beast. Although she currently has Dantian like a human, but there was no guarantee that [Death Revtion Sutra] would suitable for her.
But [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] was different. It was the cultivation manual derived from Four Mythical Guardian Beast if Tang Li Xue cultivated [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] until she reached Nascent Soul Stage, she would have four nascent souls with the form of Four Mythical Guardian Beasts!
Third, the cultivators who cultivated this [Death Revtion Sutra] must continue refining Death Qi in his or her Dantian to increase their cultivation, and Death Qi itself was the ominous energy from the dead creatures. In short, all of the creatures would emanate Death Qi after they have died.
Thus, all of the cultivators other than from Undead Race who cultivated Death Qi would surely have a ghastly appearance!
As someone who has a peerless stunning beauty appearance, how could Tang Li Xue ept that?!
Tang Li Xue already has such a ghastly appearance in her previous life because of her incurable illness, so of course, she did not want her appearance to be like that again in this lifetime.
Other than [Scepter of Disaster] and [Death Revtion Sutra], there was one more important inheritance from Evil Ghost Emperor imprinted in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
For Tang Li Xue, this third inheritance might be the most important one for her and the one she needed the most right now.
Ancient Martial Art Technique, [Essence Devouring Technique]¡
This [Essence Devouring Technique] was a very evil Ancient Martial Art Technique. After mastering it, the cultivator could devour all kinds of energy from their opponents and convert it for their own use.
For example, if Tang Li Xue mastered [Essence Devouring Technique], she could devour enemy''s Qi, life essence, Vitality Energy, and whatsoever, then convert it to increase her own cultivation, or she could also use it to recover her own Qi and Vitality Energy.
Of course, this [Essence Devouring Technique] also has several shorings even though it was a very OP Ancient Martial Art Technique.
First, there must be physical contact between the user and the target for this [Essence Devouring Technique] to work.
However, there was a lot of ambiguity about the meaning of this ''physical contact'' in the [Essence Devouring Technique].
For some reason, Tang Li Xue felt that this [Essence Devouring Technique] could bebined with her [Energy Maniption] divine ability to make it much more fearsome since everything she made from [Energy Maniption] seems could be counted as her body part too.
Second, the user could increase their own cultivation really fast by using this [Essence Devouring Technique] to devour the energy from another creature, but it could also make the foundation of their cultivation became not solid enough.
If the foundation of their cultivation was not solid enough, any cultivator would find it harder to break through to the higher stage in the future.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue''s evolution and cultivation breakthrough were all managed by her system, so she did not need to worry about it at all.
Tang Li Xue herself probably did not even have any clue about what Foundation of Cultivation was?!
If someone asked her about it, she probably asked back if the Foundation of Cultivation can be eaten or not...
Third, there were many impurities mixed in the energy devoured from the opponent. If those impurities umted too much in the body of any cultivator, it would be a fatal poison that hindering any cultivator from breakthrough to a higher stageter on.
It could even make their cultivation deviate, and the consequence would be really fatal. That cultivator could even lose his or her life if that really happened!
But then again... Tang Li Xue did not need to worry about that since any poison or impurities would be instantly purified or burned by her [Imperial Moon Fox] and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodlines.
In short, this [Essence Devouring Technique] fit so perfectly with Tang Li Xue that she could not even find any drawback from mastering or using it.
Tang Li Xue inhaled deeply and murmured: "Well... I only have 1,000 Deity Coins toprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]... But let''s check the price toprehend this [Essence Devouring Technique] first. At Least, I can umte more Deity Coins to learn itter."
Ding!
-----------------------------------------------------
[1st Inheritance Trial Quest Completed!]

-----------------------------------------------------

[Do you want toprehend [Essence Devouring Technique] with cost 500 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
-----------------------------------------------------
"Oh? 500 Deity Coins, huh... It is not that expensive for such an OP Ancient Martial Art Technique... I hope I can collect 500 Deity Coins in this one month." Tang Li Xue said as she hoped to get more quests from her system in this Inheritance Ground Tablet, so she could umte 500 Deity Coins more.
Tang Li Xue decided not to recklessly aim for another inheritance. She rested in this ancient temple for two days to recover her injuries, stamina, and Qi first.
She was chased by the core disciples from the Five Virtuous Sect, climbed up the trial staircase to reach the Peak of Cang Yang Mountain, then fought with so many dried corpses and skeletons nonstop after all.
After she rested long enough and went back to her optimum condition, Tang Li Xue came out from the ancient temple and began to search for another inheritance.
There were so many inheritances from weaker cultivators to powerful cultivators in this Inheritance Ground Tablet, but Tang Li Xue only has a limited time here.
Tang Li Xue''s problem right now was how to find the best inheritance in this Inheritance Ground Tablet.
Just when Tang Li Xue felt confused about where she would head to find the high-tier inheritance like this Evil Ghost Emperor or even better...
"Nyaaa~!" Little Loki meowed as it jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s shoulder, then it headed toward the southeast.
"Little Loki! Where are you going?! It is too dangerous here, so you must always stick near with me!" Tang Li Xue rebuked Little Loki while she quickly chased after it.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to catch up with Little Loki, and she quickly hugged Little Loki, so it would not wander around randomly anymore.
Little Loki rolled its third eye and quickly meowed again while pointed its tiny paw toward the southeast.
"You are asking me to go there? Can you sense something you need from there?" Tang Li Xue asked in puzzlement.
Little Loki shook its tiny furry head.
Tang Li Xue became even more puzzled by Little Loki''s reply and asked again: "What do you mean then? I really do not understand it."
Little Loki pointed its tiny paw toward Tang Li Xue before it pointed again toward the southeast.
"Eh? I get it! So you are saying that there is something good for me there?" Tang Li Xue asked as her topaz blue eyes shone brighter in realization.
Chapter 430: 2nd Inheritance and Hard Difficulty Quest!
Chapter 430: 2nd Inheritance and Hard Difficulty Quest!
Little Loki nodded its tiny furry head rapidly.
Tang Li Xue''s eyes were glittering brighter when she saw Little Loki nodded, then she asked again with an excited tone: "Little Loki, can you really sense which direction has the best inheritance?"
Little Loki rolled its third eye again at Tang Li Xue''s obliviousness.
How could it know which direction has the best inheritance?! It only pointed in the direction which gave the most delicious smell.
As Taotie, Little Loki should always devour precious treasures or hunt powerful prey to ease its insatiable hunger.
The most delicious smell for Little Loki could only mean it find the precious treasures or... powerful prey for it to consume!
Tang Li Xue thought Little Loki really has the ability to detect the treasures and became even more excited.
She did not hesitate to sprint toward the direction Little Loki pointed to.
It did not take long for her to get out from the graveyard area and entered the area with many green hills.
The contrast between the barren ground in the graveyard area and lush grassy ground in the green hills area was quite strange, but Tang Li Xue did not mind it and kept running past many green hills.
After sprinting leisurely for several hours while feeding Little Loki with many Umon Grade beast cores as snacks, Tang Li Xue finally arrived at a gigantic Crystal Pce Tomb.
Tang Li Xue stared at the magnificent Crystal Pce Tomb in awe for a few moments and slowly muttered in amazement: "This is really crazy¡ I bet the material used to build this Crystal Pce should be really expensive! Ssshhh¡ I wonder how many spirit stones I can get by selling it?!"
Compared to this grand Crystal Pce Tomb, the Evil Ghost Emperor''s ancient stone temple looked too shabby.
Little Loki almost stumbled and fell from Tang Li Xue''s shoulder when it heard Tang Li Xue''s words.
Little Loki pped its tiny paw onto its forehead as it thought: ''Do you even know what that pce is made of? It is made purely from spirit stones and then sealed with manyplicated arrays, so the Spirit Energy would not disperse! Selling the pce made from pure spirit stones to get spirit stones is apletely brainless thing to do¡''
But Little Loki did not bother to waste its effort to tell Tang Li Xue about it. It was not like Tang Li Xue could bring that grand Crystal Pce Tomb back with her anyway.
Little Loki had decided that the fate of this grand Crystal Pce Tomb was to enter its stomachter.
Of course, Little Loki would not greedily devour everything for itself. Firstly, it would let its inexperienced master search for her own fortuitous opportunities inside.
Tang Li Xue carefully observed the exterior of the grand Crystal Pce Tomb to find the gate to enter.
Tang Li Xue must admit that this Crystal Pce Tomb was truly enormous since she needed to spend more than one hour just to find the front gate.
When Tang Li Xue touched the majestic looking gate, suddenly an archaic voice resounded in her mind.
"Fated young one, since you have arrived at my gate, it means you have a fate with me, Heavenly Sword Immortal. BUT having fate and luck is far from enough to get my acknowledgment."
"Talent,prehension, intelligence, strength, and so on... There are still so many factors that can determine someone''s quality other than just fate and luck."
"As the sessor of Heavenly Sword Immortal''s inheritance, you need to have all of those. I already left several trials to test your overall qualities. The trials will be very dangerous, and you cannot give up halfway."
"Once you decided to enter this gate and take the trials, you will only have two choices, pass all the trials and get my inheritance or die! So, think about it carefully before entering..."
KREEAAAKKK¡
After the archaic voice vanished, the majestic looking gate slowly opened as if it permitted Tang Li Xue to enter.
The dumbfounded Tang Li Xue quickly took several steps back after she heard the archaic voice''s warning.
"Wait... What?! Another Trial again?! I have had enough of these trials! Why do I need to pass the trials to get the inheritance?! That is too troublesome!" Tang Li Xueined while started to ponder her choices carefully.
Little Loki stared at Tang Li Xue with eyes filled with ridicule and thought: ''Do you really think these ancient cultivators are doing charity or something?! They are looking for the right sessor to hold their inheritance! These old cultivators spent their entire lives to increase their cultivation and collect precious treasures, so it is not strange that they want to give some trials to look for the best sessor.''
Actually, it could not be said that it was all Tang Li Xue''s fault for not understand it since most of the Main Characters in the novels she read usually got their fortuitous opportunities too easily, like finding pebbles in the middle of the street.
After a few moments, Tang Li Xue managed to deduce some clues from the previous words of archaic voice and the grand Crystal Pce Tomb.
Just from the owner''s name, Heavenly Sword Immortal, and this grand building, Tang Li Xue could already deduce that the owner of this grand Crystal Pce Tomb was on apletely different level than the previous Evil Ghost Emperor.
So, of course, the owner of this grand building would certainly have much higher expectations for his sessor than the previous Evil Ghost Emperor.
In short, the trials given by this Heavenly Sword Immortal would probably much more dangerous and harder than the trials she already faced before.
While Tang Li Xue hesitated for a few minutes in front of the already opened gate, Little Loki started to lose its patience at Tang Li Xue''s indecision.
''What are you hesitating for?! Do you forget that I am here! Even if there is no way outter, I can easily make it for you! I can even devour this entire tomb in one gulp!'' Little Loki thought as it used its teleportation ability to teleport Tang Li Xue a few meters forward and entered the gate.
But Little Loki never nned to help Tang Li Xue pass all the trials since it also wanted Tang Li Xue to gain more experience and became stronger quickly.
When Tang Li Xue entered the grand Crystal Pce Tomb, the gate behind her instantly closed by itself.
"Eh¡ What happens?!" Tang Li Xue, who was in deep thought before, immediately realized that something was not right.
Unfortunately, it was already toote for her to step out from the grand Crystal Pce Tomb since the gate behind her was not only closed by itself but already disappearedpletely.
*Ding!
-----------------------------------------------------
[Quest: (Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Inheritance Trials) Heavenly Sword Immortal was a renowned ancient cultivator hundreds of thousands of years ago, but he suddenly went missing. Be his sessor and get his inheritance will be the first crucial step to reach Deity Rank. (1/5)]
[Difficulty: Hard]
[Reward: Level +3 (+1), Stat Point+300 (+75), Skill Point+45(+11), 500(+125) Deity Coins, Comprehension Pill]
-----------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue''s eyes almost fell out of its socket when she saw the quest suddenly given by her system, especially when she saw ''first crucial step to reach Deity Rank'' words.
When Tang Li Xue read the quest log in her system, the archaic voice echoed again in her mind.
"Congrattion, Fated young one! You have passed my first trial, the trial of courage!"
"The second trial will be a dangerous one, so be careful if you do not want to lose your life!"
"The second trial, the trial of martial art''s prowess willmence now!"
Tang Li Xue was stunned silly when she heard that she passed the first trial without even doing anything.
After the archaic voice stopped talking, the surrounding scene quickly became blurry, and Tang Li Xue suddenly found herself in the middle of a big closed room.
She was surrounded by thick crystal walls, and the surrounding crystal walls were engraved with mysterious ancient murals.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched violently in annoyance. She did not even have any time to think about what happened since everything happened too quickly and so suddenly.
When Tang Li Xue was wondering what this second trial was about, a transparent man abruptly jumped out from the mysterious ancient murals engraved on the crystal wall in front of her.
The body of this transparent man looked as if it was made from the crystal, and it wielded a crystal sword as its weapon.
" Sigh... So, I only need to defeat this crystal man, right? I hope it is not too powerful..." Tang Li Xue muttered while sighed in relief.
Little Loki took a nce at the mysterious ancient murals engraved on the crystal wall and immediately found that this martial art''s prowess trial was surely not as simple as Tang Li Xue''s think, since the mysterious ancient murals looked like a set of sword martial arts technique.
But before Little Loki has the time to warn Tang Li Xue about it, the transparent man thrust the crystal sword on its grasp toward Tang Li Xue''s neck all of a sudden.
Tang Li Xue swiftly raised her palm and used Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palm] to parry the crystal sword.
Her hands turned blurry in an instant and split into many several afterimages like an illusion.
BBBAAAANGGG~!!!
When Tang Li Xue smacked the blunt side of the crystal sword with her palm, the crystal sword and her palm bounced off.
Both Tang Li Xue and the crystal man took two steps backward because of the impact of the collision.
Tang Li Xue frowned a bit by the crystal man''s strength, but she did not think much of it.
"Rank 3 Acupuncture Opening Stage... So, it has the same cultivation, speed, and strength as me. Between the two of us, only the one who has stronger martial art prowess would be the one who will prevail, huh..." Tang Li Xuemented while clicked her tongue.
Chapter 431: Lethal Softness VS Extreme Hardness!
Chapter 431: Lethal Softness VS Extreme Hardness!
BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡
Tang Li Xue kept using her Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palm] and [Crouching Tiger w] to fight against the crystal man, but she still could not get the upper hand even after fighting for ten minutes or so.
The sword technique of this crystal man was quite strange.
It seems like the sword technique was focused on killing the opponent at any cost... Something like you cannd any of your attack on me or even cut any of my limbs, but I will certainly take your life.
In short, the sword technique was very ferocious and filled with killing intent, abandoning any form of defense to kill the enemy.
The crystal man was fighting as if it was ready to lose its life as long as it could kill Tang Li Xue, but of course, Tang Li Xue never has any intention to die together with the crystal man, so she fell more and more into disadvantage situation and forced to mostly defend from the crystal man''s lethal attacks.
"Damn it! What kind of cheating battle is this?! Fighting against a lifeless crystal puppet with a set of suicide sword techniques without losing my life?! You must be joking with me, right?!" Tang Li Xue groaned as she executed Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palm] and used her palm to parry another sword attack from the crystal man.
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to stop holding back and just used her me of Pride to create six [me Arrows], then shot all of it toward the crystal man from six different directions at once.
The crystal man''s set of sword techniques have extremely powerful offensive power, but the defense was non-existent.
The crystal man tried to defend itself by shing Tang Li Xue''s [me Arrows], but it only managed to knock down two [me Arrows].
The other four of Tang Li Xue''s [me Arrows] easily prated the crystal man''s body and pinned it onto the ground.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, but when she thought that she managed toplete this trial of martial art''s prowess¡ another crystal man walked out from the mysterious ancient murals engraved on another crystal wall.
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise as her expression turned more solemn.
"There are 4 crystal walls at total engraved with 4 different ancient murals. Don''t tell me I need to fight 4 crystal puppets with 4 different sword techniques?!" Tang Li Xue muttered her guess while observed the mysterious ancient murals.
Tang Li Xue was currently confined in a big closed room, while the crystal walls on her front, right, left, and back sides were engraved with 4 different ancient murals.
Upon examining it closer, Tang Li Xue realized that the ancient murals engraved on the crystal walls were actually the set of sword techniques that would be used by the crystal puppet to fight her.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper after she examined the ancient murals engraved on the crystal walls.
These ancient murals were like the cheats given to her to defeat the crystal puppets, but Tang Li Xue never believed that the owner of this crystal pce tomb would be that lenient to his sessor candidate.
Suddenly, Tang Li Xue has the premonition that these ancient murals and the crystal puppets were only preparation given to her before the real thing started.
Tang Li Xue shook her head as she decided to focus on defeating the crystal puppet in front of her first.
The current crystal puppet was theplete opposite of the previous one that was super aggressive.
This crystal puppet was quite docile and patient¡ It did not even attack Tang Li Xue when she observed the ancient murals closely for a few moments before.
Tang Li Xue nced at the mysterious ancient murals where the crystal puppet came out from.
Just like what she had predicted, the current crystal puppet was focused on defense, and its fighting style was using softness to break the hardness. The characteristic was almost identical to her [Drifting Cloud Palm].
Tang Li Xue created another six [me Arrows] with her me of Pride and shot all of them at once from six different directions!
SWOSH... SWOSH¡ SWOSH¡ SWOSH¡ SWOSH¡ SWOSH¡
The six [me Arrows] whizzed toward the crystal puppet in unison as the scorching temperature started to spread around the closed room.
The crystal puppet leisurely raised its crystal sword to meet the [me Arrows] in front of it.
Surprisingly, the crystal sword in the crystal puppet''s grasp did not block, cut, or knockdown Tang Li Xue''s [me Arrow], but guiding it instead.
The crystal sword''s movements were not too fast nor too slow.
Each of the crystal sword''s movements was elegant and charming, like dancing.
The crystal sword controlled the movement of Tang Li Xue''s [Fire Arrows] one by one, and finally, the six [Fire Arrows] were obediently following the movement of the crystal sword in a few moves like the group of sheep followed their shepherd.
When the tip of the crystal sword pointed at Tang Li Xue, the six [Fire Arrows] flew back towards Tang Li Xue instead with a speed more than doubled from before!
If these [Fire Arrows] were not created from her me of Pride, Tang Li Xue would be in big trouble right now.
But since the [Fire Arrows] were created from her me of Pride that was like a part of her own body, Tang Li Xue easily dispersed it with one wave of her hand.
Tang Li Xue suddenly realized that the current crystal puppet was actually much more troublesome than the previous one.
Not only was the characteristic of its sword techniques identical to her Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palm], but it was much more profound than that.
Using soft technique or Taichi-like movement with a sword was much harder than using both palms like her [Drifting Cloud Palm] since it required a long time of practice and a high degree of technique mastery.
After pondered for a few moments, Tang Li Xue decided to probe the crystal puppet again using her Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger w], then she nned to catch the crystal puppet off guard and finish it off using her [me Tiger w].
RROOOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRR~!!!
The loud sound of tiger roar echoed in the closed room when Tang Li Xue condensed a pair of tiger ws using her Qi and brandished it toward the crystal puppet.
The crystal puppet leisurely raised its crystal sword again and thrust it toward Tang Li Xue.
When Tang Li Xue thought that her tiger w attack would collide violently with the crystal puppet''s sword, the tiger w changed the direction on its own as if it was avoiding the crystal puppet''s sword, while the sword kept heading toward Tang Li Xue''s neck!
Tang Li Xue immediately used the Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palm], and she immediately tilted her head to the right side to dodge the sword attack.
Usually, this move from [Drifting Cloud Palm] would give an illusion as if the sword harmlessly passed through Tang Li Xue''s neck.
But this time, the tip of the crystal sword was bending looked as if it was chasing Tang Li Xue''s neck!
"Impossible! What the hell is that?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise when she was caughtpletely off guard instead by the crystal sword''s weird movement!
Just when Little Loki, who sat on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder, was prepared to help her, Tang Li Xue decided to enter [Perfect Assimtion] mode with Phoenix of Pride again.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The deep-blue me of Pride exploded out from Tang Li Xue''s body and thrown off the crystal puppet along with its crystal sword backward for tens of meters until it crashed onto the crystal wall behind it.
Tang Li Xue did not give any time for the crystal puppet to recover and quickly threw [me Tiger w] toward it!
RROOOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRR~!!!
The loud tiger roar resounded again as the scorching [me Tiger w] shed at the crystal puppet from above its head.
The crystal puppet raised its crystal sword and swiftly spun it.
In that instant, the scorching [me Tiger w] turned back into a lump of deep-blue me of Pride and dispersed onto the ground.
Tang Li Xue no longer dared to fight head-on against this crystal puppet since its sword technique was too strange and troublesome to deal with.
This crystal puppet''s soft type sword technique could also easily deal against her Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palm] and [Crouching Tiger w], so she chose to madly attack the crystal puppet with her me of Pride instead this time.
"All right¡ I know your sword technique is so mysterious and capable to neutralize any attack. Then I really want to know how you neutralize this?!" Tang Li Xue angrily muttered to the crystal puppet.
[Fire Wall]!
BBBWWWOOOOOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
The wall of deep-blue me surrounded the crystal puppet from all directions without leaving any gap for it to hide or escape.
Chapter 432: Sword Techniques That Can Cut Through Everything!
Chapter 432: Sword Techniques That Can Cut Through Everything!
No matter how good the crystal puppet''s sword technique, Tang Li Xue was sure that the crystal puppet could not get out from me of Pride''s encirclement.
Tang Li Xue carefully controlled the deep-blue [me Wall], and it started to approach the crystal puppet from all sides.
The crystal puppet raised its crystal sword and began to spin while waving its sword around.
As if Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue [me Wall] was stirred by the crystal sword''s movements, the deep-blue [me Wall] started to spin too and dispersed bit by bit.
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in amazement at the crystal puppet''s magnificent sword technique.
"Is that crystal sword really a normal sword and not a treasure?! Do you really mean it can even do something like that with only a normal sword?! You must be kidding with me!" Tang Li Xue eximed in disbelief.
Tang Li Xue must admit that this crystal puppet was truly formidable, but it did not mean she would give up just like that and let the crystal puppet did whatever it wants!
Tang Li Xue added more and more of her deep-blue me of Pride, then used it to maintain the [me Wall].
What she has currently done was the same as adding the oil into the fire so it would not get extinguished.
Tang Li Xue also put all of her focus to control the [me Wall], so it would not get dispersed by the crystal puppet''s sword technique.
Meanwhile, the crystal puppet kept spinning while swinging its sword to disperse the deep-blue mes around it.
It was truly a fierce battle. The me of Pride could not approach the crystal puppet, but the temperature of Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride was too high for the crystal puppet to handle.
The deep-blue me of Pride slowly roasted the crystal puppet without touching it and after ten minutes or so had passed, the body of the crystal puppet could no longer withstand the searing heat and crumbled apart into crystal dust.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief while muttered: "Sigh¡ With this, I already defeat half of the crystal puppets. I only need to defeat two more."
After a few moments, the third crystal puppet jumped out from another set of mysterious ancient murals engraved on another crystal wall.
The first crystal puppet was using a standard crystal sword, and the second crystal puppet was using a flexible crystal sword.
Different from the previous two crystal puppets, the third crystal puppet was using a bigger crystal sword.
The big crystal sword that the third crystal puppet was currently wielding was almost as tall as itself.
The third crystal puppet did not wait patiently for Tang Li Xue to prepare herself like the second crystal puppet and immediately swung down its heavy-looking big sword vertically toward Tang Li Xue.
After she fought against the previous two powerful crystal puppets, Tang Li Xue did not dare to look down on this third crystal puppet.
Tang Li Xue quickly used [Snow Dance Step] to dodge the crystal puppet''s big sword attack and created some distance with the crystal puppet.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Who knew that the ground shook violently when the crystal puppet''s big sword struck the crystal tiles on the ground.
The attack from the crystal puppet split several extremely hard crystal tiles and left a deep crease on the ground that extended for several meters forward.
Tang Li Xue almost tripped and tumbled down because of the tremor on the ground.
Her expression turned pale in an instant when she realized how powerful the sword attack from this third crystal puppet.
Tang Li Xue no longer dared to fight this third crystal puppet head-on in the close range, so she decided to use the previous strategy she used to defeat the second crystal puppet again.
[me Arrows]!
Tang Li Xue created twelve [me Arrows] from her me of Pride in an instant and shot them towards the third crystal puppet from all directions.
The third crystal puppet spun its body and forcefully swung its big crystal sword 360 degrees.
BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡ BANG¡
All Tang Li Xue''s twelve [me Arrows] were cut by the third crystal puppet''s big sword, but all of those were only a distraction.
[me Wall]!
The scorching deep-blue [me Wall] rise from all sides, encircled the third crystal puppet from all directions at once.
Tang Li Xue pped her palms and the scorching deep-blue [me Wall] began to approach the third crystal puppet from all sides.
The third crystal puppet jumped while twisting its waist on mid-air and brandishing its big crystal sword horizontally.
In that instant, the deep-blue [me Wall] was split in two before extinguished.
It was truly a strange scene to behold¡ How could the deep-blue [me Wall] and the surrounding sea of deep-blue mes split in two at once then get extinguished in one sh?!
However, Tang Li Xue could faintly feel that her control over her me of Pride was actually got ''cut'' by that single sh too.
"What the hell is that sh?! Don''t tell me this crystal puppet''s sword techniques are more powerful and profound than the previous crystal puppet?! Damn it! Then how could I win against the fourth crystal puppetter on?!" Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
After extinguishing all of Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue me of Pride, the third crystal puppet fearlessly strode toward Tang Li Xue with the big crystal sword in its grasp.
Tang Li Xue anxiously used her [Snow Dance Step] to run from the third crystal puppet and approached the mysterious ancient murals where this third crystal puppet came out from.
Although Tang Li Xue did not really understand the ancientnguage written on these ancient murals, but she could still understand a bit from the pictures engraved there.
Although Tang Li Xue did not understand the ancientnguage written on these ancient murals, but she could still understand a bit from the pictures engraved there.
[From simplicity toplex, then fromplex back again to simplicity]...
Without any fancy moves...
[Sword Technique that focused solely on Sword Intent]...
[One sh can cut through everything]...
[Wielding something heavy as if wielding something light]...
[Paragon Sword Technique]!
Tang Li Xue''s lips twitched violently. She was still oblivious about anything rted to sword techniques, but she was not a fool.
Just from looking at these pictures of sword techniques, she could already feel that this sword technique was far from ordinary.
But Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she peeked on the pictures of sword techniques.
Although, the third crystal puppet''s sword techniques were the most fearsome among all, but it was not unfathomable like the second crystal puppet''s sword techniques.
The keyword to defeat it was ''fromplex back again to simplicity''.
Since the moves were simple, then it was easier to predict!
Tang Li Xue was no longer hesitating and immediately used her [Water Mirage].
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure was split into four, then from four to eight, and so on¡
After Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirages] was split into twenty-four, they started to scatter everywhere to avoid the third crystal puppet.
The third crystal puppet swung its big crystal sword around until it created a sword wave that split even the surrounding air and sound!
PUFF¡ PUFF¡ PUFF¡ PUFF¡ PUFF¡ PUFF¡
Nine of Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirages] was cut in two in that instant.
Those nine [Water Mirages] burst out like bubbles and turned back into the water.
The third crystal puppet kept swinging its big crystal sword, and the sword waves from it cut Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirages] again and again.
But Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirages] kept splitting, and the number kept increasing too!
Unfortunately, the third crystal puppet was cutting Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirages] faster, so all of Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirages] vanished in only a few moments.
When the third crystal puppet found the real Tang Li Xue, it swung its big crystal sword vertically as if it wanted to cut Tang Li Xue in two from above her head.
"Damn it! This third crystal puppet is really too strong! Even [Water Mirage] cannot stall enough time for me! But this should be enough, right?" Tang Li Xueined, but then she slowly raised the deep-blue ball of me hovering on the palm of her hand.
[Spiral Sphere Bomb]!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have enough time topress more of her me of Pride into this [Spiral Sphere Bomb], so its explosive power should be much weaker than the one she used against the gigantic skeleton before.
But it should be enough since the crystal puppet was quite fragile!
Just when the third crystal puppet''s big sword almost shed onto Tang Li Xue''s head, Tang Li Xue suddenly threw the [Spiral Sphere Bomb] onto its body!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Earth-shattering explosion urred when Tang Li Xue''s [Spiral Sphere Bomb] struck the third crystal puppet''s body.
The third crystal puppet''s body was shattered into crystal dust in an instant while Tang Li Xue herself was thrown off backward because of the terrifying explosion wave.
Her body crashed heavily onto the crystal wall behind her until she coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood.
Luckily, the deep-blue me of Pride could not hurt her, or she would already turn into nothingness under its extremely high temperature, but she still got injured quite heavily because of the terrifying explosion wave.
Tang Li Xue actually could throw [Spiral Sphere Bomb] from the distance, but she was afraid that her [Spiral Sphere Bomb] would get cut and neutralize by the third crystal puppet again like her [me Wall] and [me Arrows].
Well... At least, she finally managed to defeat the third crystal puppet.
It was a risky gamble since Tang Li Xue would definitely die if the third crystal puppet''s big sword cut her in two first.
Fortunately, the third crystal puppet''s sword techniques were rather simplepared to the second crystal puppet, so Tang Li Xue could predict it easily and counterattack.
Chapter 433: Tang Li Xue’s Despair!
Chapter 433: Tang Li Xue¡¯s Despair!
¡..
¡
.
When Tang Li Xue was undergoing the second trial in the grand Crystal Pce Tomb and fighting against the crystal puppets, the core disciples of Five Virtuous Sects finally managed to reach the top of Cang Yang Mountain.
One of the young girls from White Crane Sect gnashed her teeth in anger andined: "This is all because of that damned thief! If not for her, we would already enter Inheritance Ground Tablet since a few days ago!"
"That is right! She even dares to steal all of our Ancient Jade Emblems! Next time we meet that damned thief, we must definitely kill her at all cost!" One of the core disciples from the Oracle Mountain Sect also added with an angry tone.
"All right, that is enough! Our time is quite limited, so we should quickly pick the people that will enter the Inheritance Ground Tablet." Meng Ying coldly said with a warning tone.
There were only fifty Ancient Jade Emblems in total, but Tang Li Xue herself brought more than fifteen Ancient Jade Emblems with her when she entered the Inheritance Ground Tablet.
So, there were only more than thirty Ancient Jade Emblems left that could be used as the key to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet.
After working so hard in these few days by snatching the Ancient Jade Emblems from other cultivators that climbed the staircase to reach the top of Cang Yang Mountain, the core disciples from both the White Crane Sect and Oracle Mountain Sect finally managed to collect some Ancient Jade Emblems to make up their loss.
Of course, the number of Ancient Jade Emblems was still not enough for all of them to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet, so they could only pick a few of them to enter there.
Among the groups of core disciples from the three Virtuous Sects here, only the Immortal Sword Sect''s group was not affected since Tang Li Xue did not take their Ancient Jade Emblems, so all of them could enter Inheritance Ground Tablet.
The White Crane Sect has five Ancient Jade Emblems, so Meng Ying picked another four of herrades to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet with her.
The Oracle Mountain Sect has seven Ancient Jade Emblems since they were the master of Formation, they could easily trap many cultivators at once with the formation and snatched their Ancient Jade Emblems.
The Oracle Mountain Sect has more Ancient Jade Emblems than White Crane Sect since they were proficient in the formation. They could easily trap many cultivators at once with the formation and snatched their Ancient Jade Emblems.
The Oracle Mountain Sect has seven Ancient Jade Emblems.
Beiming Chu, the leader of core disciples from the Oracle Mountain Sect, picked six of hisrades to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet with him.
Meanwhile, there were sixteen core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect, including Ye Zhen, so all of them would enter Inheritance Ground Tablet since they managed to collect sixteen Ancient Jade Emblems.
There were still a few Ancient Jade Emblems left out there, but they did not have any more patience to search for them since the Inheritance Ground Tablet would only open for one month while they were already wasting several days of those precious time.
After choosing the people who will enter the Inheritance Ground Tablet, the respective leader of the three core disciples from three Virtuous Sects took out the map from their spatial ring.
If Tang Li Xue saw this map, she would immediately realize that this map was actually the map of Inheritance Ground Tablet.
The core disciples from Five Virtuous Sects already entered this Inheritance Ground Tablet many times before, so of course, they have the map of it.
But the map was only roughly sketched, and there were still many ces that remain unexplored until now.
The reason these three leaders took out their respective maps was to divide the area they wanted to explore.
After debating for an hour or so, they finally finished assigning the area they wanted to explore, then they started to prepare themselves to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet.
Since they would be teleported randomly after they entered Inheritance Ground Tablet, they must set some kind of way to detect andmunicate with the people from their respective groups.
"If you find that damned thief, do not kill her immediately. Just catch her first. I want to torture her so badly until she begs for me to kill her!" Meng Ying told Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu with a tone filled with murderous intent.
Beiming Chu nodded his head without any hesitation, but Ye Zhen pretended to be in deep thought and ignored Meng Ying''s words.
Then all of them took their respective Ancient Jade Emblems and held them up toward the gigantic ancient stone tablet.
WEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
The gigantic ancient stone tablet on the top of Cang Yang Mountain shone brightly, and it suddenly pulled all the people who were holding Ancient Jade Emblem.
¡..
¡
.
After defeating the third crystal puppet, Tang Li Xue immediately took out several talismans from her Space Pouch.
She predicted that the next crystal puppet should be even more powerful than the previous three crystal puppets, so she decided to improve her strength a bit by using several buff Talismans on herself such as [Talisman of Lightning Speed +3], [Talisman of Wind Step +3], [Talisman of Giant Strength +3], [Talisman of Greater Force +3], and so on.
She also used [Talisman of Regeneration +3] to recover her current rather serious injuries.
Since her [High-Speed Regeneration] skill was sealed along with all of her skills and divine abilities in this Inheritance Ground Tablet, she could only rely on this
[Talisman of Regeneration +3]? to cure her injuries.
After a few moments, the fourth crystal puppet jumped out from thest set of mysterious ancient murals engraved on the crystal wall.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she raised her vignce to the maximum while muttered: "This crystal puppet should be thest one I must defeat to pass this second trial. I hope this crystal puppet is not too troublesome to deal with..."
But all of a sudden, the fourth crystal puppet vanished from Tang Li Xue''s view¡
Tang Li Xue''s heart grew cold in that instant, and a terrible premonition flooded her mind.
Without having any time to think, Tang Li Xue''s reflex kicked in a sh, and her slender body moved very swiftly by itself.
She nimbly somersaulted backward, and right at that time when her body was still hanging horizontally on the mid-air, something cold shed a few millimeters above her nose and cut several strands of her silky silver front hairs.
SWIIIIFFFTT~!!!
When the cold wind blew her face, Tang Li Xue''s heart was palpitating in intense fear.
If she moved toote for even 0.01 second, her head would probably fly off from her neck by now!
After Tang Li Xuended back gracefully on the ground, she quickly looked around to find that the fourth crystal puppet already stood leisurely behind her with its crystal sword still inside the sheath.
CRACK¡ KLACK¡
Tang Li Xue''s fox mask and her ck hood were cut in two, then fell onto the ground, revealing her peerless stunning beautiful face and a pair of silver fox ears on the top of her head.
Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva to calm down her nervousness and fright, but her forehead and back were still drenched with her cold sweat.
Forget about defeating this fourth crystal puppet, she could not even see its movement at all!
Tang Li Xue really wanted to curse the owner of this Crystal Pce Tomb with all of the profanities words she knew right now.
''Damn it! Is he really looking for a sessor for his inheritance?! I bet he just wants to kill everyone that tries to take his inheritance, right?! What a bast*rd?!'' Tang Li Xue groaned in anger.
Tang Li Xue quickly dashed toward the mysterious ancient murals where this fourth crystal puppet came out from.
Without even a slight chance of winning, she could only hope this cheat sheet¡ err... I mean these ancient murals could give her a clue in defeating the fourth crystal puppet.
But the fourth crystal puppet would not let Tang Li Xue do whatever she liked so easily, it calmly touched the hilt of its crystal sword, and its figure vanished once again.
Tang Li Xue did not even have any time to take a nce at the mysterious ancient murals before she saw the fourth crystal puppet vanished from where it stood again.
Tang Li Xue could only avoid the fourth crystal puppet''s first attack because of her luck, so she did not dare to gamble with her life and try to dodge it for the second time.
She rather chose to block this second attack, so she decided to raise both of her hands and put them in front of her in a blocking stance.
BBBAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue felt something heavily strike her hands until they went so painful and numb. Even her body was thrown off several meters backward, but she quickly stabilized herself before her body smashed onto the crystal wall behind her.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue was wearing her glove weapon, [Critical Strikers]. If not, her hands and even her body would probably already cut into pieces by the fourth crystal puppet''s sword attack.
But the durability of [Critical Strikers] fell by 53 points in only one strike from this fourth crystal puppet.
[Durability: 447/500]
The durability of [Critical Strikers] will gradually recover over time, but if she kept using her [Critical Strikers] to block nine more attacks from this fourth crystal puppet, her [Critical Strikers] would certainly break apart sooner orter.
Chapter 434: The Last Insane Part of Second Trial!
Chapter 434: The Last Insane Part of Second Trial!
Tang Li Xue shook both of her palms to ease the pain and relieved the numb sensation on both of her arms.
But she did not dare to remain idle for too long since it would be bad if the fourth crystal puppet attacked her again when she lowered guard a bit.
Tang Li Xue immediately decided to use her [Water Mirage] again to confuse the fourth crystal puppet and used it to buy her enough time to peek at the mysterious ancient murals where this fourth crystal puppet came out from!
In only a few moments, Tang Li Xue''s slender figure was split into four, then from four to eight, and so on¡
After Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirages] was split into twenty-four identical figures of Tang Li Xue, they started to run in random directions to confuse the fourth crystal puppet.
The fourth crystal puppet still looked calm as ever as it grasped the hilt of its sheathed crystal sword.
Then the fourth crystal puppet vanished again in that instant¡
SWISH¡ SWISH¡ SWISH¡ SWISH¡ SWISH¡
Tang Li Xue could not even see any of the fourth crystal puppet''s moves or how it unsheathed its sword.
She could only see most of her [Water Mirages] suddenly cut in two in an instant.
PUFF¡ PUFF¡ PUFF¡ PUFF¡ PUFF¡ PUFF¡
Most of her [Water Mirages] burst out like bubbles and turned back to the water.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and dashed toward the mysterious ancient murals again.
Of course, the fourth crystal puppet would not let her approach the mysterious ancient murals.
Its figure shed once again as it swung its sword toward Tang Li Xue''s neck from behind!
However, Tang Li Xue suddenly ducked down and rolled forward on the ground.
Her posture was really embarrassing and unsightly, but she could not afford to worry about that since her life was at stake right now.
Just like Tang Li Xue had predicted, her unexpected movement was really caught the fourth crystal puppet off guard.
The fourth crystal puppet''s sword passed few millimeters above Tang Li Xue''s head, and it only managed to cut a few strands of her silver hair.
Tang Li Xue knew that her disgraceful moves could only buy her one or two seconds at most, so she quickly took a peek at the mysterious ancient murals to get some crucial clues on how to defeat the fourth crystal puppet.
[In martial art, speed is everything.]
[If you can move and attack faster than your opponent, you can kill your opponent before they can even do anything.]
[Therefore, speed always determines the winner!]
[Martial art that focused on speed... Abandon everything to obtain the supreme speed]¡
[Cut your opponent before they cut you]¡
[Kill your opponent before they kill you]¡
[Supreme Speed Sword Style]¡
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched violently again while thinking: ''These four sword martial arts¡ are powerful, but they are really strange, right? Each of them has a ring fatal w. I wonder if the owner of this Crystal Pce Tomb deliberately makes it like that¡''
The first sword technique was the super offensive style sword technique that abandoned all defense.
The second sword technique was the super defensive style sword that could only defend, waiting for the opponent to attack, and then counterattack.
The third sword technique was the sword art focused on sharpening sword intent to cut through everything, but the moves were too simple.
The current fourth sword technique might look the most overpowered amongst all, but it actually has the biggest wpared to the other three sword technique.
In short, this fourth sword technique did not have anything worth mentioning other than its super speed.
The moves were too simple¡ Even simpler than the third sword technique¡
The uracy of this fourth sword technique will also fall greatly when it moves at high speed¡
The strength of this fourth sword technique was also average at best, and the defense was nonexistent.
Tang Li Xue was quite lucky since if not for that biggest w, this fourth crystal puppet should already kill her with its first attack.
After looking at the pictures of the fourth sword techniques on the murals, Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and was no longer afraid to face it like before.
"Sigh... Unfortunately, I cannot use my [Energy Maniption] divine ability here. If not for that, defeating the fourth crystal puppet would be much easier¡" Tang Li Xue muttered as she stood up facing the fourth crystal puppet.
When the fourth crystal puppet touched the hilt of its sword again, Tang Li Xue instantly knew that it would attack her again, and she swiftly took out something from her space pouch.
Just like Tang Li Xue had predicted, the figure of the fourth crystal puppet vanished once again in an instant.
From the start of their battle until now, Tang Li Xue could not even see this fourth crystal puppet unsheathed its sword. The moment it touched the hilt of its sword, it vanished from her view in an instant, and after the fourth crystal puppet attacked her, its sword already sheathed back into its scabbard.
But this time, Tang Li Xue already prepared for that this time.
She already knew from the mysterious ancient murals that the sword techniques of this fourth crystal puppet have only consisted of the quick draw and swift sh like cutting grass.
The sword techniques werepletelycking in variety which was the reason why Tang Li Xue''s head was still on her neck until now.
When the fourth crystal puppet shed toward her, Tang Li Xue quickly squatted down to dodge the fourth crystal puppet''s sword attack while throwing something from below.
[Blood Sealing Chain]!
Tang Li Xue randomly threw out her [Blood Sealing Chain] from below.
Just like what she had predicted, the fourth crystal puppet was moving too fast, so it did not have enough time to dodge it!
BAAANG~!!!
The [Blood Sealing Chain] tangled the fourth crystal puppet''s feet when its feet identally bumped onto the [Blood Sealing Chain].
Because it moved with its top speed, the fourth crystal puppet''s body was thrown forward like a cannonball when its feet suddenly got bound by [Blood Sealing Chain].
BBBOOOOOOOOOOM~!!!
The head of the fourth crystal puppet crashed heavily onto the crystal wall and shattered into tiny pieces of crystal along with its body.
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise. She never thought that the fourth crystal puppet would be destroyed in such aical way.
"Sigh... Atst... With this, I should have managed to pass the second trial. I hope the third trial would not be this hard." Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
Tang Li Xue nned to take some rest for one or two days to recover her exhausted mind, body, Qi, and stamina before taking the third trial, but something unbelievable was happening in front of her eyes.
"This is... im...possible..." Tang Li Xue slowly muttered in disbelief as she saw four crystal puppets jumped out at once from the four ancient murals engraved on the four crystal walls.
"No way! You are kidding me, right?! Are you saying that I must fight with four puppets at once now to pass this trial?! This is insane!" Tang Li Xue said with an anxious and panicked tone.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and quickly dashed toward the nearest crystal wall and quickly touched the ancient murals engraved on it.
*Ding!
[Do you want toprehend Sword Art of Mystic Harmony with cost 75 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
This [Sword Art of Mystic Harmony] was the sword technique of the second crystal puppet.
Tang Li Xue could actuallyprehend all four sword techniques engraved on the four ancient murals and used the w from each sword technique to easily defeat each crystal puppet.
But she did not want to waste any of her Deity Coins to learn any of it! That was the reason why she decided to defeat the four crystal puppets in such roundabout ways.
Unfortunately, she has no more choice right now.
Facing the four crystal puppets at once head-on without exploiting their w was the same as tantamount to suicide!
"YES!" Tang Li Xue confirmed without hesitation.
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes as the information about [Sword Art of Mystic Harmony] rushed into her mind in that instant.
This [Sword Art of Mystic Harmony] was quite profound, but it was still simpler and easier to understand than [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art].
The peculiar sharpness shed on the deep of her topaz blue eyes.
Tang Li Xue suddenly turned around and stretched her right hand.
Right at that timing, the fourth crystal puppet''s super fast sword attack came toward her.
When the fourth crystal puppet''s sword flew swiftly above Tang Li Xue''s right hand, she suddenly spun her right hand upward, and the super-fast sword suddenly flew uncontrobly upward. The movement track of the sword formedrge L.
BBBAAAAAAAANNNGGG~!!!
The fourth crystal puppet was moving too fast, so it could not react fast enough, and its body crashed to Tang Li Xue.
However, Tang Li Xue already prepared for that and pushed her left elbow forward, so when the fourth crystal puppet crashed onto her, her left elbow sessfully struck it and made it flew backward for several meters.
Tang Li Xue became dumbfounded and muttered in shock: "This [Sword Art of Mystic Harmony] is awesome!"
If she held a sword in her right or left hand, this fourth crystal puppet should have already split in two by her by now.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have any time to feel happy since the first crystal puppet and third crystal puppet already brandished their sword toward her in unison.
Chapter 435: Successfully Comprehending Four Sword Techniques!
Chapter 435: Sessfully Comprehending Four Sword Techniques!
The first crystal puppet''s attack has great lethality, while the third crystal puppet has the sharpest sword attack since it honed its sword intent to the extreme level.
Getting shed by anyone of them would be very fatal, so Tang Li Xue immediately decided to use [Snow Dance Step] to dodge their attacks.
BBBAAAAAANGGG~!!! BBBAAAAAANGGG~!!!
The first and third crystal puppet''s sword struck the crystal wall behind Tang Li Xue instead, but the crystal wall remains unscratched by their attack.
Tang Li Xue took that chance to touch the other ancient murals engraved on another crystal wall.
*Ding!
[Do you want toprehend Supreme Speed Sword Style with cost 100 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
"Yes!" Tang Li Xue confirmed again without any hesitation.
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes as she quickly digested the information of [Supreme Speed Sword Style] that flooded into her mind in that instant.
This [Supreme Speed Sword Style] was focused on speed rather than sword technique.
It could be said [Supreme Speed Sword Style] was an offensive type of light body technique that could bebined with any sword technique.
Peculiar step to reach the highest speed in the shortest amount of time, profound body posture to increase the body flexibility and burst speed, fastest sword draw technique, and so on...
Tang Li Xue was lucky that the fourth crystal puppet was only using [Supreme Speed Sword Style] while only randomly waved its crystal sword around like a novice swordsman.
If the owner of Crystal Pce Tomb put another profound sword technique for the fourth crystal puppet to use, Tang Li Xue''s body should have already been cut to several parts by the fourth crystal puppet''s sword right now.
In short, this [Supreme Speed Sword Style] should have been used with other profound sword techniques to show its true prowess. Of course, the user of this [Supreme Speed Sword Style] should also have very fast body reflexes and reaction speed to support it too.
When Tang Li Xue opened her eyes again, Tang Li Xue became dumbfounded, and she could only drop her jaw in surprise.
"This [Supreme Speed Sword Style]... is basically made for me, right?! This is really crazy... I wonder how fast I will be if I used it with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step]ter..." Tang Li Xue muttered while gulped her saliva.
Moreover, with her skills such as [Increase Reaction Speed], [urate Prediction], [Precise Calction], and so on along with her divine ability such as [Auto Correction] and [Extrasensory Perception]... it was hard to imagine anyone who could use this [Supreme Speed Sword Style] better than her...
Tang Li Xue smiled as her topaz blue eyes shone brighter in excitement, then she said full of confidence: "With this [Supreme Speed Sword Style], I am sure that I can defeat them all!"
Tang Li Xue turned her body around to face the four crystal puppets, but she was immediately greeted by the sword attacks from the first crystal puppet and third puppet.
Tang Li Xue smirked mischievously as she silently dragged her right foot one step back.
Just when the first crystal puppet''s sword and third crystal puppet''s sword almost shed Tang Li Xue''s body and tore her body onto four parts...
SSWWOOOOOSSHHH~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s figure suddenly disappeared from their view and then...
[me Tiger w]!
BBBAAAANGG~!!! BBBAAAANGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue wanted to use her [me Tiger w] to tear the first crystal puppet and third crystal puppet to pieces, but who knew that the second crystal puppet immediately supported them with [Sword Art of Mystic Harmony] from behind and dispersed her [me Tiger w] on time.
So, Tang Li Xue only managed to strike both the first crystal puppet and third crystal puppet with her palms.
The essence of [Sword Art of Mystic Harmony] technique was all about defending and counterattacking, so after the second crystal puppet dispersed Tang Li Xue''s attack, it started to stab its crystal sword toward Tang Li Xue''s chest.
"This second puppet is really troublesome." Tang Li Xue muttered as she frowned deeply.
Tang Li Xue knew how troublesome the defensive ability of this [Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], especially after sheprehended it herself.
Tang Li Xue immediately used [Sword Art of Mystic Harmony] too to defend against the second puppet''s attack.
Since Tang Li Xue did not have any sword, so she could only use her palm as a recement. She still has her glove weapon, [Critical Strikers], protecting her hands anyway.
The second puppet quickly twisted its wrist, then the tip of the second puppet''s flexible sword swiftly changed direction unpredictably as if it avoided Tang Li Xue''s palm and changed its target from Tang Li Xue''s chest to Tang Li Xue''s throat.
CCLLLAAAAANGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue swiftly smacked the blunt side of the second puppet''s sword before the tip could pierce or slice her throat.
Tang Li Xue managed to block the second puppet''s attack, but she still did not dare to attack the second puppet carelessly, since its [Sword Art of Mystic Harmony] could counterattack her easily.
In the end, Tang Li Xue immediately chose to use [Supreme Speed Sword Style] to move toward the third crystal puppet''s ancient murals.
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure vanished from the second crystal puppet''s view in that instant as she swiftly dashed to the other crystal wall and stretched her right hand to touch the ancient murals engraved on it.
*Ding!
[Do you want toprehend Paragon Sword Technique with cost 90 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
"Yes!" Tang Li Xue chose to ept it with a firm tone.
When the information about the Paragon Sword Technique entered her mind, Tang Li Xue already used her [Snow Dance Step] to move toward thest crystal wall and touched thest ancient murals engraved on it.
*Ding!
[Do you want toprehend Chivalrous Sword Art with cost 50 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a few moments whether she should learn this first crystal puppet''s sword technique or not since she thought that this sword technique might be the weakest amongst the four sword techniques.
But she gritted her teeth and decided to learn it in the end, because she felt that these four sword techniques might be rted to each other: "Yes!"
The information about Chivalrous Sword Art entered Tang Li Xue''s mind in that instant.
With that, Tang Li Xue finally managed to learn the four sword techniques engraved on the four crystal walls in this closed room.
First sword technique, [Chivalrous Sword Art]¡
Second sword technique, [Sword Art of Mystic Harmony]¡
Third sword technique, [Paragon Sword Technique]¡
Fourth sword technique, [Supreme Speed Sword Style]¡
Each with their own merit and weakness¡
For some reason, Tang Li Xue could feel that these four sword techniques could bebined like Heavenly Yang Art and Extreme Yin Technique¡
Unfortunately, the crystal puppets already started to attack her again, and she did not have enough time to ponder about it carefully.
Tang Li Xue also could not afford to spend more Deity Coins for that, because she already nned to use her Deity Coins toprehend Yin Yang Chaotic Formter.
"Sigh¡ I already spent 315 Deity Coins to learn these four sword techniques. I hope they can help me deal with these four crystal puppets." Tang Li Xue hoped as she raised her left hands and used [Sword Art of Mystic Harmony] to deflect the lightning-speed sword attack from the fourth crystal puppet.
Unfortunately, the attack from the fourth crystal puppet was too fast, and Tang Li Xue moved a few milliseconds toote, so the lightning-speed sword attack heavily struck Tang Li Xue''s left palm instead.
BBBAAAAAAAAAANG~!!!
[Durability: 391/500]
The durability of her [Critical Strikers] fell again when the fourth crystal puppet''s sword attack struck Tang Li Xue''s palm, and she took a few steps backward, even her left palm felt numb and unresponsive for a few moments.
But after she forcefully blocked the fourth crystal puppet''s attack, the first and third crystal puppets immediately followed up and brandished their sword toward her again from her right and left sides simultaneously.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and started to spin her upper body while her feet took a circr step, then she forcefully brandished her right palm like swing a sword.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spin¡
BBBAAAANGG~!!! BBBAAAANGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s right palm struck right at the wrist of the first and third crystal puppets until they almost released the sword in their grasp.
''If I want to defeat them easier, then I must destroy their defense first¡'' Tang Li Xue thought as she activated her equipment skill, Shadow sh, and teleported to the second crystal puppet''s shadow.
The second crystal puppet quickly raised its sword to defend itself.
The second crystal puppet''s defense was really troublesome. Moreover, it always used its sword techniques to assist the other three crystal puppets at the crucial timing to deflect Tang Li Xue''s attack, so Tang Li Xue did not really any other choice than to defeat this second crystal puppet first before she could defeat the others.
Tang Li Xue used [Paragon Sword Technique] andbined it with her me of Pride to create a [me Sword].
However, This [me Sword] was abnormally sharp since it was also created from thepression of Tang Li Xue''s Qi and [Paragon Sword Technique]''s sharpest sword intent!
Tang Li Xue decided to call it¡ [Paragon me Sword]!
BBBWWOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
Tang Li Xue held the [Paragon me Sword] tightly with both of her hands and forcefully swung it down with all of her strength.
The second crystal puppet gracefully moved its flexible sword to redirect it toward another direction, but unfortunately, the super intense heat from [Paragon me Sword] melted its flexible sword even before the sword could touch it.
After the extremely high temperature of the [Paragon me Sword] melted the second crystal puppet''s sword, it shed down with unstoppable force and smote the second crystal puppet''s body until itpletely evaporated and left nothing behind.
Chapter 436: The Third Trial, Trial of Wits!
Chapter 436: The Third Trial, Trial of Wits!
''It seems my guess is right¡ The only way to defeat the unbreakable defense is simply to attack it with the strongest attack that can destroy any defense.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
Other than felt relieved, she also became quite excited since the power of her [Paragon me Sword]pletely exceeded her expectation.
Right after Tang Li Xue defeated the second crystal puppet, the fourth crystal puppet already used its [Supreme Speed Sword Style] to attack Tang Li Xue from behind.
The fourth crystal puppet''s figure vanished from everyone''s view as it shed with unmatchable speed toward Tang Li Xue while unsheathed its crystal sword from the scabbard.
However, Tang Li Xue already predicted it ahead of time, and her slender figure also vanished from where she stood before!
''I already knew you will take this chance to sneak attacking me from behind, you cowardly bast*rd!'' Tang Li Xue thought angrily.
Yes, Tang Li Xue decided to use [Supreme Speed Sword Style] too to face the fourth crystal puppet head-on now!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
[Supreme Speed Sword Style] versus [Supreme Speed Sword Style]¡
Tang Li Xue and the fourth crystal puppet shed against each other with lightning speed that could no longer be seen with naked eyes.
Unfortunately for the fourth crystal puppet, Tang Li Xue had something that the fourth crystal puppet did not have.
Thebination of [me Sword] created from thepression of her me of Pride and coated with the sharpest sword intent from the [Paragon Sword Technique]¡ [Paragon me Sword] which can cut through everything and has extremely high temperature!
Tang Li Xue also added more sword technique on top of that¡ [Chivalrous Sword Art], Trading Blow!
It was the sword move to deal 200% damage to the enemy while received 60% to 70% damage from the enemy.
After trading one strike, both of them stopped moving.
The right sleeve of Tang Li Xue''s white clothes was sliced by the fourth crystal puppet and fell to the floor. The smooth snow-white skin of her right arm could be seen by everyone.
It would be a bit embarrassing for Tang Li Xue if anyone saw her current sleeveless clothes, but she did not need to worry about that since there were only crystal puppets here.
BBBAAAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
Meanwhile, the fourth crystal puppet was cleaved in two by Tang Li Xue''s [Paragon me Sword], and its body burst into nothingness after a few moments.
With that, there were only first and third crystal puppets left in this closed room.
Both the first and third crystal puppets started to attack Tang Li Xue again.
Both of them dashed fearlessly toward Tang Li Xue and jumped while using all of their strength to swing down their crystal sword like a heavy hammer of judgment.
Tang Li Xue no longer nned to block or dodge their attacks anymore. She wanted to try how powerful her current attack power was!
Tang Li Xue lowered her [Paragon me Sword] until it touched the ground and put it behind her while tightly held it with both of her hands.
Then Tang Li Xue twisted her waist and used all of her strength to sh the [Paragon me Sword] in her grasp upward!
''This is not enough! More power! More strength!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as her [Paragon Sword Technique] drained more of her Qi to create the sharper and stronger sword aura.
[Chivalrous Sword Art], Trading Blow!
Weapon skill, [Final Strike]!
The [Paragon me Sword] started to flicker for a moment before it started to burn more fiercely, and the size began to growrger.
The [Paragon me Sword] Tang Li Xue created was only about ny centimeters long, but it grew to two meters long in a blink of an eye right now!
The terrifying heat and matchless sharpness radiated from the two meters long [Paragon me Sword]!
Even the first and third crystal puppets felt intimidated by the horrifying aura emitted from Tang Li Xue''s [Paragon me Sword].
Unfortunately, it was already toote for them to retreat now since Tang Li Xue''s [Paragon me Sword] already arrived right in front of them!
The first and third crystal puppets could only use all of their strength to face Tang Li Xue''s [Paragon me Sword] head-on!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The first crystal puppet was the first one that could not hold on from Tang Li Xue''s powerful strike. The crystal sword in its grasp evaporated along with its body leaving nothing behind.
Meanwhile, the third crystal puppet''s big sword managed to sh head-on against Tang Li Xue''s [Paragon me Sword]!
Since the third crystal puppet coated its big sword with the powerful sword intent from its [Paragon Sword Technique], its big sword could still hold on against Tang Li Xue''s [Paragon me Sword].
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s strength was far more superior than the third crystal puppet because her [Final Strike] and [Trading Blow] increased her strength by several times in this strike.
The body of the third crystal puppet was the one not powerful enough to withstand Tang Li Xue''s strike.
The third crystal puppet sted by Tang Li Xue''s strike, and the cracks started to spread around its body as it was thrown off backward violently.
The terrifying heatwave incinerated its body before it could crash onto the crystal wall behind it and shattered to pieces. The extremely high temperature burned its crystal body into nothingness in only an instant.
Even after defeating all the four crystal puppets, Tang Li Xue still did not dare to lower her vignce at all.
Previously, she immediately lowered her guard after defeating the fourth crystal puppet and almost got killed by them after all.
Thankfully, it was really over this time since the archaic voice resounded in her mind again.
"Congrattion, Fated young one! You have passed my second trial, the trial of martial art''s prowess!"
"The third trial will be even more dangerous and harder than the second trial, so you can decide to give up and retreat if you want."
"You cane out from the entrance gate if you decided to give up. But if you decided to continue, you can proceed forward and enter the blue gate in front of you."
"The third trial, Trial of Wits willmence after you enter that blue gate, so choose it wisely!"
After the archaic voice stopped talking, two gates have appeared in an instant for Tang Li Xue to choose from.
The crystal gate behind her could lead her to exit the Crystal Pce Tomb, while the blue gate would lead her to the third trial.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, and she finally decided to disperse the [Paragon me Sword] in her grasp.
She also canceled the [Perfect Assimtion] mode with her Phoenix of Pride.
The intense feeling of exhaustion assaulted her entire body, and she started to stagger a bit.
She decided to sit on the ground while leaned on the crystal wall behind her.
Meanwhile, her Phoenix of Pride already immediately went back to sleep and absorbed the pure Yang Energy emitted from the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in Tang Li Xue''s Dantian after Tang Li Xue canceled the [Perfect Assimtion] mode.
''My Qi and stamina are almost empty. This [Paragon me Sword] is surely very powerful, but the consumption of Qi and stamina when wielding it was insane. I probably might not even be able to sustain it for more than fifteen minutes.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Tang Li Xue decided to take a rest for two or three days in this second trial room to recover her injuries, mind, Qi, and stamina first before proceeding to the next trial.
Comprehending Four Sword Techniques in only a few moments might sound incredible, but it actually taxed Tang Li Xue''s mind too much.
Of course, Tang Li Xue also did not forget to feed the well-behaved Little Loki with the umon-grade beast cores she stored in her space pouch and stored back the [Blood Sealing Chain] into her space pouch.
After rested for three days, Tang Li Xue''s mind finally felt refreshed again, and all of her wounds alsopletely recovered. Even her body, Qi, and stamina were also restored to optimum condition.
"All right then¡ Here goes nothing! Trial of Wits? Hehehe¡ I may find it hard if the trial is about fighting something powerful since my Beast Cultivation System is sealed right now, but I do not believe that I can fail in the test of wits and intelligence!" Tang Li Xue said with a tone filled with confidence as she smirked yfully.
Tang Li Xue pushed the blue gate in front of her with her right hand while her left hand was holding Little Loki in her embrace, then she stepped into the room behind the blue gate without any hesitation.
WWWEEEEEEEEEENNGGG~!!!
After Tang Li Xue passed the blue gate, it disappeared in an instant, and Tang Li Xue could no longer retreat from this trial.
She did not have any other choice than to pass this third trial.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply since there was nothing here other than the several long corridors with many intersections, while there were indestructible crystal walls covered the upper, right, and left sides.
After pondered for a few moments, Tang Li Xue pped her hands and muttered in realization: "I get it! This entire room is a big maze! So, the Trial of Wits should be about how to get out of this maze!"
"Sigh¡ But it also means that there are so many dangerous traps ced in this big maze. Thus, I must proceed carefully to avoid all the dangerous traps here while trying to find the right direction to exit from this maze... What a troublesome trial!" Tang Li Xue groaned with a frustrated tone.
Chapter 437: Tang Li Xue’s Way of Cheating!
Chapter 437: Tang Li Xue¡¯s Way of Cheating!
Regarding the way to get out of the maze, Instructor Mei Lan had already trained Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao in this using the sparring room on the 2nd floor of the Education Building.
Instructor Mei Lan even yed hide and seek with them in the sparring room that projected the maze-like pce filled with dangerous traps before.
It was heavy torture for Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao... But Tang Li Xue had to admit that Instructor Mei Lan''s hellish training really worked wonders since she was not even flustered, anxious, or panicked when she was facing this kind of dangerous maze in front of her right now.
Other than troublesome, Tang Li Xue never thought that she would not be able to find a way out from this maze. It would only take more of her time and effort.
"Urgh... This third trial would be a piece of cake if I can use all of my skills and divine abilities here... Sigh... Oh, well... I have a limited time in Inheritance Ground Tablet, so I really do not want to waste it here. It seems I can only apologize to the owner of this Crystal Pce Tomb since I will cheat a bit now..." Tang Li Xue mumbled while smirked mischievously.
When Tang Li Xue wanted to take out something from her space pouch, she realized that the current clothes she wore were already in tatter because of her previous battle against the crystal puppets, and she looked really improper.
If any males saw her current appearance, their blood might spurt out profusely from their noses because of it.
Tang Li Xue''s stunning face blushed in embarrassment. She hesitated for a few moments before decided to take out a set of spare white clothes.
She put Little Loki in her embrace onto the floor that was covered with crystal ceramic tile, and then she told it to patiently stay put for a few moments while patted its tiny furry head gently.
Tang Li Xue wore the ck cloak first to cover her body before she started to undress and changed to the new set of clothes since it would be really awkward if someone else suddenly took the third trial too and arrived here.
Little Loki looked a bit annoyed since it always felt that wearing clothes werepletely unnecessary and thought that Tang Li Xue was actually more beautiful without wearing them.
If Tang Li Xue knew what Little Loki thought, she would probably be dumbfounded and think that Little Loki was a perverted little child.
After changing her tattered clothes to the new ones, Tang Li Xue looked much cleaner and purer like the new fairy that very recently descended from heaven and still untouched by any impurities.
Tang Li Xue also did not forget to cover the pair of silver fox ears on the top of her head with the ck hood before she took Little Loki into her embrace again.
As for her peerlessly beautiful face, she could not cover it since she did not have any spare mask.
Tang Li Xue always created the fox mask to cover her peerlessly beautiful face with her [Energy Maniption] divine ability, while she could not use any divine ability in this Inheritance Ground Tablet.
"All right, this is good enough already! Then it is time for me to get serious!" Tang Li Xue smiled charmingly as she put Little Loki on her right shoulder and took out something from her space pouch again.
It was a ck long wand with a ck orb on the top of it.
The ck deathly aura emitted out from it was more than enough to make any creature shivering in horror and fear.
The Heavenly Treasure ranking 832¡ [Scepter of Disaster].
Tang Li Xue injected her thoughts into the [Scepter of Disaster] ording to the instruction from Evil Ghost Emperor''s inheritance.
After sensed the faint connection with the [Scepter of Disaster], Tang Li Xue started to carefully control the small part of [Scepter of Disaster]''s power and muttered: "Come out my subordinates and heed for my order! Spread out and search for the exit from this ce for me now!"
After Tang Li Xue blurted out her order, the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp began to emit the ck gas, which was contained the thick Death Qi in all directions.
A few moments after the thick Death Qi spreading out in the giant maze, hundreds of armored skeletons and dried corpses started to charge out from the thick Death Qi.
Hundreds of armored skeletons and dried corpses immediately carried out Tang Li Xue''s order and spread out all toward all directions to look for the exit from this giant maze.
Several deathly traps were activated in an instant when the armored skeletons and dried corpses entered that area.
PUFF¡ PUFF¡ PUFF¡ PUFF¡ PUFF¡ PUFF¡
Hundreds of arrows carved with pration rune were shooting out from the right and left sides toward the armies of armored skeletons and dried corpses at once.
Each of these deathly arrows could easily prate the protection of any Qi and armor.
If Tang Li Xue identally triggered it when she entered this area, her slender body would certainly be filled with holes right now.
Actually, the deathly arrows carved with pration rune already filled the armies of armored skeletons and dried corpses with holes right now.
But these armies of death could not be killed with such a thing!
The armies of armored skeletons and dried corpses only need to absorb a bit of Death Qi, and they recovered back to normal again.
Just like when Tang Li Xue faced them, these armored skeletons and dried corpses could not be killed or wounded at all.
The only way to defeat them was by destroying thempletely to nothingness, like how Tang Li Xue used her deep-blue me of Pride and burned them into nothingness.
Tang Li Xue inhaled in awe when she saw her armies of death carrying out her order and fearlessly facing those deathly traps like it was nothing at all.
"This army is really amazing! Sigh¡ I really regret destroying half of them with my own hands before. I wonder what should I do to replenish them again?" Tang Li Xue sighed in regret and started to ponder some ways to replenish the army of death that she destroyed before.
However, Tang Li Xue immediately realized that she did not need to do anything.
There were quite many corpses and skeletons of the cultivators who failed in this third trial previously, and their dead bodies were scattered all around this giant maze.
When the thick Death Qi touched several of those corpses and skeletons, those dead bodies started to twitch and stood up, then begun to join the armies of armored skeletons and dried corpses.
"Interesting! So, I only need to find the corpses or skeletons of any creatures, then I only need to inject them with the Death Qi from [Scepter of Disaster] to resurrect them?! That is so easy!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise, and she felt more excited.
Of course, there must be a limit to the number of corpses or skeletons that the [Scepter of Disaster] could resurrect.
The strength of the corpses or skeletons resurrected by the [Scepter of Disaster] also decreased greatly, but Tang Li Xue did not really care about all of those.
It was not like she would use this army of death to wage the war everywhere and started the world domination quest anyway...
She felt more excited and happy because she at least has more tools at her disposal to increase her survival, and because it looks cool!
Err... Well... Actually, thetter reason was more likely than the former...
The armies of dried corpses and skeletons fearlessly charged forward, but the farther they proceed, the more dangerous and the trickier the traps they would face.
The pitfall traps that were covered with illusion rune and the bottom filled with man-eating bugs¡
Formation cage that trapped the armies of dried corpses and skeletons and followed by thebination of several lethal killing arrays that shredded them to pieces¡
Invisible angle snare traps equipped with sharp sword intent which would cut one or two limbs once it triggered¡
Several gigantic heavy balls would sometimes be rolling out from nowhere and crushed the armies of dried corpses and skeletons with their unbearable weight¡
Landmines were created from many invisible explosion talismans, and if one identally triggered, it would immediately trigger a very dangerous chain of explosions that could even kill a group of powerful cultivators¡
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched violently after she saw many of those deathly traps andined in anger: "I am starting to wonder if the owner of this Crystal Pce Tomb is really looking for a sessor or he just does not want anyone to touch his inheritance at all?! Is he kidding me?! All of these traps are more than enough to take the life of any Acupuncture Opening Stage Cultivator!"
Chapter 438: Hungry Beast Souls!
Chapter 438: Hungry Beast Souls!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue has the [Scepter of Disaster], so she could use the armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons to explore all of the paths in this maze.
This giant maze room was actually moreplicated than Tang Li Xue''s thought.
Even with so many dried corpses and armored skeletons helped her pass through countless dangerous traps and explored all of the paths ahead of her, Tang Li Xue still stuck many times by the dead-end intersections.
Just so you know, Tang Li Xue was actually very bad at this kind of maze trial since she was really easy to get lost.
In fact, Tang Li Xue already lost her way several times previously until she finally learned [Ethereal Form] to pass through any obstacles and [Mapping Sense] to not get lost on her way.
Tang Li Xue''s armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons might be could not be killed with arrows or des, but they were vulnerable to me and thunder traps, so their numbers kept decreasing bit by bit as Tang Li Xue proceed forward deeper into the maze to find the way out.
Although, there were several corpses and skeletons of the previous trial taker in the maze, but their numbers still could not make up for the loss.
477...
421...
389...
334...
298...
243¡
Tang Li Xue started to get more nervous and anxious when the total number of her army of death already dwindled by more than half while she still did not know how far she was right now from the exit of this maze.
"Damn it! This maze is really troublesome! Sigh¡ If only I can use my [Ethereal Form] divine ability here, getting out from this maze would be really easy to do!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth andined.
After pondering her next moves for a few moments, Tang Li Xue immediately decided to change her strategy.
[Water Mirage]!
When Tang Li Xue used her [Water Mirage], her slender figure started to split into four, then from four to eight, and so on...
Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] split into twenty-four identical figures of her in an instant, and they started to scatter away to several paths and ran ahead of the armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons.
"This way, I can check what kind of traps lies ahead without losing any of my armies. Even if I run out of Qi or stamina because I used [Water Mirage] too much, I can just take some rest for a while to recover." Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction and felt she was really smart to think of this n.
It could be said this perfect n of hers was really a game-changer since Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirages] always ran ahead first as the scout, then it would be the ones who will trigger the dangerous traps first.
After the [Water Mirages] checked what kinds of traps ahead of them, Tang Li Xue only need to think of a way to pass through them.
If the traps ahead of them were only de or arrow traps, the armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons could easily pass through those traps with their undying bodies.
As for Tang Li Xue herself, she could easily pass those traps as long as already she knew their pattern.
If the traps ahead of them were fire or lightning traps, Tang Li Xue must think of a way to disarm those traps first before she and her armies of death continued their way.
Tang Li Xue no longer lost any of her armies of death in this way, but it did not mean her n has no demerit at all.
Their exploring speed actually dropped quite significantly since Tang Li Xue needed to take some rest once in a while to replenish her Qi and stamina after she used [Water Mirage] tens of times to scout the several paths ahead of them.
The deeper they proceeded, the paths of this maze became even moreplicated, and the traps also became even trickier and dangerous than before.
After two days of exploring the big maze, severalplicated paths finally converged into one great hall.
But Tang Li Xue still did not dare to lower her guard even a bit, so she decided to let one squad of her armies of death and her [Water Mirage] enter that great hall first.
After one squad of the armored skeletons and Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirages] entered the great hall, there was nothing strange or dangerous happened at first so Tang Li Xue decided to lead all of her armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons to enter the great hall too...
BOOOMM~!!! BOOOMM~!!! BOOOMM~!!!
But the thick crystal walls suddenly fell from above after all of them entered the great hall and all of the paths got blocked by those crystal walls in that instant!
"What the hell is happening?! How could..." Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise, but before she could finish her words...
RRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRR~!!!
The crystal wall on the ceiling suddenly opened, and several two meters tall ck hungry beasts jumped down into the great hall from the hole in the ceiling!
The appearance of those beasts looked like two-headed ck dogs.
Their bodies were burly and brimming with strength, but strangely, they sometimes also looked transparent, like a lump of ck smoke.
Before Tang Li Xue had any chance to react, those two-headed ck dogs already pounced toward Tang Li Xue''s armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons.
Those two-headed ck dogs greedily tore Tang Li Xue''s armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons apart with their sharp fangs and ate them like hungry tigers in the middle of sheep''s flock.
Tang Li Xue''s armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons might be could not be killed by arrows and des, but getting eaten by these hungry beasts was a different matter altogether.
Tang Li Xue''s blood rushed to her head as she felt the intense anger surging in her heart.
Tang Li Xue immediately used [Supreme Speed Sword Style] without any hesitation, and her slender figure vanished in that instant.
Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger w]!
PUUFFF~!!!
When Tang Li Xue appeared once again, she already managed to tear the stomach part from one of the hungry beasts with her [Crouching Tiger w].
However, the flesh that dropped from the stomach part of the hungry beast turned into ck smoke after a few moments, and that hungry beast recovered back to normal.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she saw that scene and clicked her tongue in annoyance: "Tsk... What a troublesome creature?! If the physical attack will not work, then how about my me of Pride!"
From the previous scene, Tang Li Xue had already deduced that these two-headed ck dogs were actually some kind of evil spirit almost identical with her armies of death, but more powerful, smarter, and more advanced.
That was also the reason why they did not starve to death when they were already imprisoned here for so long.
Just when Tang Li Xue wanted to burn those hungry two-headed ck dogs with her me of Pride and quickly kill them to avoid losing more of her armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons, a sh of inspiration suddenly struck her mind.
''Wait a minute... These two-headed ck dogs are a group of evil spirits that almost identical to my armies of undead, right? So, can I use the [Scepter of Disaster] to tame them and make them a part of my armies too? It should be possible, right?!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering with excitement as she thought about it.
Tang Li Xue raised the [Scepter of Disaster] in her left hand''s grasp and pointed it toward the group of two meters tall two-headed ck dogs that were still greedily eating her armies of death, and then...
Nothing happened...
"Err... What should I do now? Should I just hit them with this [Scepter of Disaster]? Or maybe I should chant some mantras or something?" Tang Li Xue tilted her head and murmured in confusion.
But who knew that the group of two-headed ck dogs suddenly stared at Tang Li Xue when she pointed the [Scepter of Disaster] toward them.
Tang Li Xue''s body shuddered violently when she was greedily stared at by the group of two-headed ck dogs as if those two-headed ck dogs could not wait to swallow her whole.
The group of two-headed ck dogs ignored the armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons in that instant and dashed with their full speed, then pounced toward Tang Li Xue as if Tang Li Xue was the most delicious delicacy while the others were just appetizers.
"Damn it! Why the hell are they targeting me right now?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and immediately used [Snow Dance Step] to keep her distance from those two-headed ck dogs.
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, those two-headed ck dogs were faster than her even though she already used [Snow Dance Step] to increase her speed.
It did not take long for those two-headed ck dogs to corner Tang Li Xue and encircling her from all directions.
Although those two-headed ck dogs were all hungry and greedy, but their teamwork was surprisingly impable!
When those two-headed ck dogs opened their jaws to tear TangLi Xue''s body and eat her, she suddenly spun her upper body while her feet swiftly took a circr step, then she forcefully brandished her right palm like swinging a sword.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spin!
BAANG~!!! BAANG~!!! BAANG~!!! BAANG~!!!
The four two-headed ck dogs were thrown off backward for several meters as Tang Li Xue''s right palm struck their jaws heavily, but the other two-headed ck dogs already followed up with another attack to shred Tang Li Xue apart and ate her.
Chapter 439: Sucked!
Chapter 439: Sucked!
Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palms]!
Tang Li Xue swung her body to the right and left in quick session to dodge the biting attack from the other five two-headed ck dogs.
Since her movement was so swift, the scene looked as if the five two-headed ck dogs just passed through her body.
But when the five two-headed ck dogs passed through her, Tang Li Xue struck their waist with her palms.
BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG...
The five two-headed ck dogs were also thrown off several meters because of her strike, but they immediately stood up and charged toward Tang Li Xue again.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper and started to ponder: ''This is really meaningless... They really cannot be hurt by any physical attack. Sigh... I am quite sure that I can kill them with my me of Pride, but I really do not want to kill them! What I want is to tame them and make them join my armies! But... how?!''
Tang Li Xue nced at the [Scepter of Disaster] in her right hand''s grasp for one moment.
''Maybe I should just hit them with this [Scepter of Disaster]? But... what if this [Scepter of Disaster] got damaged because I treat it too roughly! It is Heavenly Treasure ranked 832nd! I might cry a bucket of tears if it got damaged or even destroyed!'' Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration and hesitation as she dodged the rapid attacks from several two-headed ck dogs with her [Drifting Cloud Palms] again.
In the end, Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and chose to try to hit them with the [Scepter of Disaster] instead.
Since she already learned several good sword techniques in the previous trial, Tang Li Xue decided to hold and use the [Scepter of Disaster] like using a sword.
When one of the two-headed ck dogs pounced toward her and opened its mouth filled with sharp fangs to bite her...
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
Tang Li Xue suddenly stabbed at the two-headed ck dog''s left eyes using the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp!
PPPUUUFFF~!!!
The [Scepter of Disaster] pierced deep into the two-headed ck dog''s left eyes, but there was no blooding out, only ck smoke.
However, something out of Tang Li Xue''s expectation was happening all of a sudden!
That two-headed ck dog was actually sucked into the [Scepter of Disaster]!
The two-headed ck dog struggled for a few moments to run away but to no avail. Its body turned into a lump of ck smoke and sucked into the [Scepter of Disaster] in only one or two seconds.
Even Tang Li Xue herself waspletely dumbfounded when she saw the bizarre scene in front of her.
The other two-headed ck dogs reacted really fast when they saw one of theirrades got sucked into the [Scepter of Disaster] in Tang Li Xue''s grasp.
They quickly stopped charging recklessly toward Tang Li Xue like before and only red at Tan Li Xue warily while kept their distance from Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue tried to send her thoughts into the [Scepter of Disaster] to check what was happening just now.
She managed to sense the presence of that two-headed ck dog in an instant, but when she located it ording to her [Spirit Perception], she saw the two-headed ck dog was actually trapped in the space inside the [Scepter of Disaster].
Strangely, the two-headed ck dog that was trapped inside the [Scepter of Disaster] did not go rampage at all. It did not even struggle to try toe out from the [Scepter of Disaster]''s space.
In fact, the two-headed ck dog looked veryfortable and happily howled while bathing in the thick Death Qi produced by the [Scepter of Disaster].
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched violently when she saw that...
"Oh well¡ I should just hit them all with this [Scepter of Disaster] and suck them all into space in my [Scepter of Disaster] for now. I can think about how to tame themter after I went out from this Inheritance Ground Tabletter." Tang Li Xue held her chin with her slender fingers and absentmindedly muttered her next n.
GRRRR~!!! WOOFF~!!! WOOFF~!!! WOOFF~!!!
The other two-headed ck dogs no longer dared to carelessly approach and attack Tang Li Xue, so when Tang Li Xue stared at them, they only dared to bark at her to intimidate her.
However, Tang Li Xue only grinned mischievously at them and said to them: "All right, naughty puppies~! It is alreadyte, so it is time for all of you to get home~!"
The group of two-headed ck dogs started to shudder violently when they saw Tang Li Xue''s smile.
They growled at Tang Li Xue while raised their vignce to the maximum, but all of those were futile as Tang Li Xue''s slender figure suddenly disappear in an instant from their view.
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], sh Draw!
This technique was the one that the previous fourth crystal puppet used the most.
The [Supreme Speed Sword Style] were the techniques focused on speed rather than sword technique, so it only has very few offensive sword techniques.
This [sh Draw] was the simplest and the easiest to execute since it only consisted of three moves: unsheathed the sword from the scabbard, shed the sword toward the enemy, and sheathed it back into the scabbard in quick session.
However, it must be executed so swiftly that the enemy would not even realize that the sword ever left from its scabbard at all.
Tang Li Xue''s [Scepter of Disaster] did not have any scabbard, and she did not even use a sword to fight right now. So, she was only using the rudimental form of this [sh Draw] to attack the group of two-headed ck dogs.
BBBAAAAAAAANNGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Scepter of Disaster] struck precisely at the jaw of one of the two-headed ck dogs until its two meters burly body spun a few times on mid-air, but before it couldnd back onto the ground, that two-headed ck dog sucked into the [Scepter of Disaster].
The other three two-headed ck dogs already rushed toward Tang Li Xue from behind, but Tang Li Xue already predicted that ahead of time.
She already spun her upper body while her feet quickly took a circr step and turned around, then she swung the [Scepter of Disaster] with all of her strength like swinging a sword.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spin!
BAANG~!!! BAANG~!!! BAANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Scepter of Disaster] smacked the three two-headed ck dogs'' left cheek until they fell and their jaws mmed onto the ground.
When those three two-headed ck dogs still felt dizzy and dazed, they already sucked into Tang Li Xue''s [Scepter of Disaster].
After the other two-headed ck dogs saw theirrades got sucked one by one by Tang Li Xue''s [Scepter of Disaster], they became even more frenzied than before and started insanely attacking Tang Li Xue at once from all directions!
Tang Li Xue did not be anxious or afraid because of their attack from all directions, but she giggled mockingly at them instead.
When they were charged toward Tang Li Xue from all directions and opened their jaws to tear Tang Li Xue''s fragile-looking body to pieces¡
"What a group of stupid puppies~!" Tang Li Xue ridiculed the group of two-headed ck dogs as she suddenly jumped really high.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The heads of two-headed ck dogs crashed really hard against each other, and some of them even identally bit each other.
Tang Li Xue somersaulted on mid-air a few times tost a bit longer on mid-air, then she swiftly stabbed the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp downward!
[Chivalrous Sword Art], Meteor Break!
All of the techniques in [Chivalrous Sword Art] were very powerful, but they were also inflicting some damage to the user and full of opening for the enemy to exploit.
This [Chivalrous Sword Art] was very dangerous if it was used carelessly, but it would be really fatal and deathly for the enemies if used at the right timing, such as right now!
All of the two-headed ck dogs were still in a confused state and dizzy when Tang Li Xue''s [Meteor Break] suddenly smashed down like a heavy giant hammer onto their head!
The power of this [Meteor Break] was surprisingly astonishing as it managed to break the two-headed ck dogs'' muzzle or even some of their head.
However, these two-headed ck dogs were a type of evil spirit, so they could remain alive and even recover quite quickly even when Tang Li Xue already smashed their head or muzzle.
Unfortunately for them, the [Scepter of Disaster] in Tang Li Xue''s grasp already sucked all of them before they could even recoverpletely.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she managed to suck all of the two-headed ck dogs into the space inside her [Scepter of Disaster], but she still did not dare to lower her guard at all.
Tang Li Xue carefully looked around the great hall to find any clue to get out of this maze.
After one hour or so, Tang Li Xue finally managed to find several stone discs puzzle on the crystal wall.
The stone discs puzzle was quite difficult, but Tang Li Xue managed to solve it after tinkered it for a few hours.
The crystal wall in front of her suddenly opened upward, and when Tang Li Xue and her armies of death stepped out from that great hall, the crystal wall closed back again.
''I see... So, the owner of this Crystal Pce Tomb did not actually want the trial takers to defeat those two-headed puppies. He wants one of the trial takers to solve thisplicated puzzle while the other trial takers to hold those two-headed puppies for some time.'' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind.
''Aihhh~! So, that is the reason why the previous trial is also very difficult! All of these trials should be done in a group, not taken solo like what I am doing right now!'' Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
When she saw her armies of dried corpses and armored skeletons that already dwindled to only 100 or so, Tang Li Xue became even more frustrated and regretful.
Chapter 440: Instructor Mei Lan’s Hellish Training!
Chapter 440: Instructor Mei Lan¡¯s Hellish Training!
.....
...
.
Myriad Foxes Academy, Instructor Mei Lan''s Residence, behind the Education Department Building...
It was a sunny day right now, and the sun was already so high in the sky since it was already noon.
It should be a perfect time to rx and rest or have lunch, but...
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Hei Yinghao crashed heavily onto the wall and coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood.
Fortunately, all the walls around Instructor Mei Lan''s residence were already covered with several protection arrays.
If not, these walls would certainly have been destroyed already since Hei Yanghao already crashed heavily onto them so many times after he took Instructor Mei Lan''s hellish training.
Hei Yinghao actually has one on one sparring battle session against Instructor Mei Lan right the moment after Tang Li Xue left the Myriad Foxes Academy to head toward Inheritance Ground Tablet until right at this moment.
Of course, Hei Yinghao was never won even once when he was sparring against Instructor Mei Lan. In fact, he even got beaten ck and blue instead by Instructor Mei Lan.
"Are you deaf, idiot, or what?! I already said you must move and attack quicker! Are you already forget how do you lose to that purple-haired boy?!" Instructor Mei Lan scolded Hei Yinghao harshly as she mercilessly threw another powerful attack toward him.
[Demonic Tune], Vibration Construct... Giant Fist!
Hei Yinghao gritted his teeth to muster his strength and quickly jumped to the left side.
BBBAAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
The transparent [Giant Fist] smashed onto the wall where he leaned on before.
But before Hei Yinghao could do anything, Instructor Mei Lan''s right knee was already rammed onto his chin!
BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG...
After that, Instructor Mei Lan''s left knee followed up and struck Hei Yinghao''s right cheek before Hei Yinghao''s body could even be thrown off backward because of her attack, then Instructor Mei Lannded other kicks to his neck, chest, and nose.
It was truly a mercilessbo...
Each of Instructor Mei Lan''s attacks was more than enough to knock out any cultivator at the peak of the Acupuncture Opening Stage in one strike, but she pounded Hei Yinghao''s body again and again with those powerful attacks in quick session.
"You are actually not weaker than that purple-haired boy at all, but how can you lose to him? The answer lies in the speed of his elementalpression and the mastery over divine abilities."
"He has already evolved into Beast Lord Level quite a long time ago, while you just evolved into Beast Lord very recently. So, he has much higher control and mastery of his divine abilities than you. The speed of his elementalpression is also already much faster, and his way of using them is much neater than yours."
"In short, you are still too green and inexperienced to face him! Normally, it would take several years for you to learn how to control your new divine abilities perfectly and smoothly cast elementalpression as if you are breathing."
"But you said you want to defeat him so badly to restore your honor in front of Little Xue, right? Is this the only extent of your resolve?!"
Instructor Mei Lan kept scolding Hei Yinghao while kept beating him up mercilessly with her chain ofbos, without even giving him any chance to breathe or retaliate.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan did not n to kill or torture Hei Yinghao in this non-stop sparring battle session.
Instructor Mei Lan was trying to enact a life and death battle situation for Hei Yinghao in this sparring battle.
The purpose of this was to push Hei Yinghao to surpass his limit and also to let him learn how to use divine abilities and elementalpression properly directly with his body.
Rather than learning it through theories and practicing it step by step, why not just use the muscle memories to forcefully learn it, right? That was what Instructor Mei Lan trying to do right now.
Although it would be a very dangerous thing to do, but it was the only way to master something faster without learning it step by step.
Even Tang Li Xue with her system was only able toprehend any technique in an instant, but she was still unable to master them in an instant...
To master divine abilities or martial art techniques, there was almost no other way than to train over and over again for a long time.
After the sky turned dark, Instructor Mei Lan finally let Hei Yinghao off and warned him: "You only have one hour to rest. Come back here again after you eat your dinner and do not forget to use Little Xue''s [Talisman of Regeneration] to recover all of your wounds."
"Huff¡ Huff¡Instructor Lan¡ Huff¡ Where is¡ Huff¡ Ice Girl? Huff¡ Why didn''t she get beaten up just like me? Cough¡ Cough¡" Hei Yinghao asked as he lied down on the ground and breathed heavily.
Instructor Mei Lan smirked coldly at Hei Yinghao and asked back: "She is on vacation at thefortable sauna right now. Why do you ask? Do you want me to send you there too?"
Hei Yinghao''s exhausted body shuddered violently when he saw Instructor Mei Lan''s smirk, and he quickly shook his head like a rattle drum while looking at Instructor Mei Lan in fear and horror.
fortable sauna my *ss! Hahaha... Instructor Lan is giving a vacation to her student? That is one hundred percent impossible! I would never believe it even in my dream!'' Hei Yinghao shouted in his mind.
When Hei Yinghao dragged his battered and exhausted body to eat his dinner and recovered his wounds, Instructor Mei Lan was also eating her dinner while contemting.
''Sigh¡ Amongst the three, this silly fox is the one that makes me worry the most.''
''Little Xue may look a bit unreliable and too soft, but she is the most talented amongst them, so I do not need to worry about her at all. She is the type that can certainly grow up under any situation.''
''As for Bingbing, her talent is the worst one amongst the three, but she has a powerful determination that pushes her into the borderline of obsession. She is the type that can sacrifice anything, even her own life, to achieve what she wants. With that kind of willpower, she surely can reach a great height in the future.''
''As for this Silly Fox¡ His talent is much higher than Bingbing and only slightly below Little Xue¡ The most problematic part is that he has almost no motivation to move forward. Defeating that purple-haired boy is his only reason for training so hard now, and after defeating that purple-haired boy, he would certainly start to ck off again like before.''
Instructor Mei Lan pinched her chin and squinted her eyes after she pondered it carefully for a few moments.
An image of a silver masked guy with ck hair appeared in her mind¡ It was Elder Yang she had met in Tang Feng City before. She also remembered that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was actually quite close with that Elder Yang.
''It seems I need to take some drastic measure to motivate this Silly Fox again in the future...'' Instructor Mei Lan thought as she smirked again.
If Hei Yinghao saw Instructor Mei Lan''s smirk again, he would certainly shudder in fear and horror again like before.
¡..
¡
.
Instructor Mei Lan actually did not lie at all when she told Hei Yinghao that Bing Yi was ''on vacation at thefortable sauna'' right now.
Instructor Mei Lan even deliberately searched for Magma Dragon Vein and nted it under the cave before she threw Bing Yi inside it, then sealed its entrancepletely with several confinement arrays.
Because of the Magma Dragon Vein, that cave became a sauna room in an instant with the temperature several thousand degrees, enough to even melt a steel te in a few seconds.
In order for Bing Yi to survive, she must mobilize her freezing power to the maximum, but that was still far from enough to resist the extremely high temperature here!
She also must skillfullypress her freezing power to form a cold barrier around her body.
But that kind of task was too difficult for the current Bing Yi to do it right now¡ In fact, it was almost impossible for her to achieve that right now.
It was like forcing a baby, who hasn''t learned how to walk properly yet, to run across the street.
Bing Yi''s clothes were burnedpletely the moment when Instructor Mei Lan threw her into this cave.
Bing Yi waspletely naked right now, but the scene inside the cave was far from erotic.
Bing Yi''s body was already roasted by the scorching heat and horrible burnt wounds spread on all parts of her body.
Her face, chest, arm, feet, and so on already turned ck like a burnt corpse.
Her breath was very weak, but her body was still emitting a faint cold chill even though she was only half-conscious right now.
In the deepest of Bing Yi''s consciousness, she knew that she would really die if shepletely lost consciousness in this cave.
That was the reason why she instinctively retained a sliver of her consciousness even though she was already in this condition.
The scene when she talked with Instructor Mei Lan before was shing in her mind...
"Instructor Lan... I want to be strong! Strong enough until I can defeat my sister, Bing Shui, in the Fox Hunting Festivalter! So, please help me!" Bing Yi shouted as she kneeled and kowtowed to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply in displeasure and immediately replied: "That is impossible. I can train you to be stronger, but to make you strong enough to defeat your sister in such a short time is impossible."
Bing Yi gnashed her teeth in hatred and anger toward Bing Shui, then said: "But I must..."
"Bingbing! I know what you want, but you must remember that there is no shortcut to bing stronger." Instructor Mei Lan warned Bing Yi with a stern tone.
Chapter 441: Overpowered Gate Guardian!
Chapter 441: Overpowered Gate Guardian!
"I know that there is no shortcut to bing stronger, but Fox Hunting Festival is a big chance for every fox to grow stronger, so I am afraid Bing Shui will get much stronger after she enters there. So much stronger¡ that I cannot catch up to her again¡" Bing Yi revealed her fear and anxiety to Instructor Mei Lan honestly.
Instructor Mei Lan dropped her jaw in disbelief, and she almost dropped the teacup in her grasp when she heard Bing Yi''s worry.
Luckily, she has not drunk the tea in her cup yet, or she might already spurt it out onto Bing Yi''s face.
Instructor Mei Lan smirked at Bing Yi''s naive way of thinking and started to rebuke her: "Kid, you really like to think too much, don''t you? What kind of event do you think the Fox Hunting Festival is? Charity event from the higher-ups to make all of you, the younger generation foxes, grow stronger? HELL NO!"
"That is the real bloody battlefield replication prepared for all of you, the younger generation foxes that living your every day in peace, to taste the true war!"
"Sigh... Bingbing, do you know how many foxes from our Lightwind Continent Branch participate in Fox Hunting Festival? Hundreds!"
"And... you should already know that we are one of the farthest continents from Central Continent, so the density of the spiritual energy in our continent is the lowest, which made all of the cultivators and beasts here much harder to have cultivation breakthrough or evolve to the higher rank."
"In short, our quota is also affected because of it... and we only have the least participant quota among the other continents."
"Just so you know, your sister''s team might be one of the elite teams, but they do not even enter the top 100 in the elite team rank. Her team is only one of the middle ranks."
"Do not need to mention middle ranks team like your sister''s team, even the strongest top 10 elite teams from our Lightwind Continent Branch need to be really careful or they might get crushed by any random team from Central Continent."
Instructor Mei Lan concluded her scolding session and sipped the teacup in her grasp.
It was true that countless resources would appear in Hunting Fox Festival, but countless foxes from different continents wouldpete and fight over them.
The weaker foxes would just fall before they could even grab or do anything in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
While the stronger foxes would probably manage to im some resources until they fell under the ws of the strongest foxes.
To sum it all up, all of the higher-ups from Myriad Foxes Academy of Lightwind Continent Branch, including Instructor Mei Lan herself, never put their hopes in newbie groups like Tang Li Xue''s group or middle-rank elite groups like Bing Shui''s group.
The reason the higher-ups let them participate in Foxes Hunting Festival was no more than to gain more experience and to open their eyes to see the true abilities of the real elite foxes.
Of course, it was still not that easy¡ Since they must also have strong background support!
Tang Li Xue''s group has Instructor Mei Lan''s support, while Bing Shui''s group has Zi Yan''s support. If not for that, it would be impossible for them to participate in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
"I understand, Instructor Lan¡ But I still want to get much stronger with faster way! Is there really no other way for that?" Bing Yi asked Instructor Mei Lan again with a tone filled with stubbornness.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at Bing Yi''s unyielding expression and sighed, but she did not immediately refuse Bing Yi''s request this time.
Instructor Mei Lan closed her eyes to think of some ways while her slender finger rhythmically tapped the tea table.
Just when Bing Yi almost ran out of patience and wanted to say something to urge Instructor Mei Lan again, Instructor Mei Lan suddenly raised her hand and asked with a stern tone: "I have one way to make you much stronger in a short time, BUT¡ your chance of dying will be as high as 90%. Do you still dare to try it?"
Bing Yi''s expression turned solemn, but she nodded her head without any hesitation.
After that, Instructor Mei Lan threw Bing Yi into the scorching cave, then sealed its entrancepletely with several confinement arrays.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan did not forget to give Bing Yi a way out.
Instructor Mei Lan gave Bing Yi a stone badge and told Bing Yi to crush it if she could not hold on anymore, then she would automatically be thrown out from the cave.
However, Bing Yi did not appreciate it at all. She immediately threw the stone badge into her space pouch after she entered the cave and decided to never use it even if she died.
Bing Yi did not have any intention of giving up halfway. She would seed or die while doing it!
Even right now, when her life was still tethering between life and death, Bing Yi still did not have any intention to crush the stone tablet and giving up halfway.
''Bing¡ Shui¡ I will¡ surely have¡ my revenge¡''
¡..

.
While Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi were currently undergoing their respective hellish training, Tang Li Xue also did not remain idle.
She already proceeded deeper into the maze and met with the other strange ghostly creatures other than the [Two-Headed ck Dogs].
Currently, Tang Li Xue had already faced more than twenty [Death Wraith] with the appearance like the grim reaper in the next room after the great hall and more than thirty [Flying Head Ghosts] in thest room.
Of course, she already defeated all of them and sucked them into her [Scepter of Disaster].
Although, Tang Li Xue still did not know the way to tame them yet right now, but she was really sure that she could tame all of them sooner orter.
After taking some rest to feed Little Loki with Beast Cores and recover herself from all the wounds and exhaustion, she decided to continue on her way.
Her armies of death already dwindled again and left with only thirty-something.
It was so pitiful that Tang Li Xue almost wanted to cry and mourn for their sacrifice.
Tang Li Xue and her armies of death vigntly walked on the long corridor.
She was already so sure that there would be many dangerous traps here and prepared herself to face them, but contrary to her expectation, there was nothing strange that happened in this long corridor.
When Tang Li Xue and her armies of death walked past the long corridor, they entered a big circr hall.
"This ce is... a colosseum?" Tang Li Xue tilted her head and muttered in confusion.
BOOOOOM~!!!
Then suddenly, the long corridor behind them was blocked by a thick crystal wall.
"Tsk! This kind of old trick again... I wonder what kind of creature would jump out this time." Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in displeasure.
Rumble... Rumble... Rumble...Rumble...
The entire colosseum shook violently all of a sudden as the giant gate across the colosseum started to open upward like a giant beast''s mouth.
A pair of big red eyes were shining in the darkness behind that giant gate¡
RRROOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRR~!!!
Tang Li Xue quickly covered her ears to withstand the roaring sound, but she still felt dizzy and nauseous because of it.
If the roaring sound wasing from the beast, Tang Li Xue certainly has some confidence in withstanding it since she already sparred against Instructor Mei Lan so many times before.
But this roaring sound was really strange. It was like the mixed sound between the friction of many metals, beast roar, and ghost screeching.
Even Tang Li Xue still could not guess what kind of creature lurking in that darkness even after she heard its roaring sound.
BOOOM¡ BOOOM¡ BOOOM¡ BOOOM¡ BOOOM¡
The giant creature started to slowly walk out from the darkness.
Each step it took made the colosseum ground trembled violently.
Tang Li Xue''s heart palpitated with mixed fear and anticipation as she held the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp tighter.
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise and disbelief when she saw the true form of that creature and muttered: "What kind of creature is that?!"
The creature was actually a gigantic bone dragon... or it might be one of the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard''s elders from Lizard n, but that was not the weird part.
What made Tang Li Xue amazed was the entire body of a gigantic bone dragon covered with the metallic sheen and countless sharp des.
It was like the mecha machine that Tang Li Xue saw in anime in her previous life.
The consequence would simply unimaginable if Tang Li Xue''s fragile-looking body was bumped by that metallic body filled with sharp des. Her body would certainly shred to tiny pieces in an instant.
Just like what Tang Li Xue has predicted just now, the gigantic metal bone dragon swiftly sprinted toward Tang Li Xue without any fear!
"Oh no! Damn it, this is bad! Everyone disperses! Spread around! No, they are not fast enough... Juste back to the [Scepter of Disaster]!" Tang Li Xue started to panic as she gave a series of orders to her armies of death.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue was still one step too slow...
The gigantic metal bone dragon tore apart all of her remaining armies of death like a sharp de cut through a bunch of rag clothes in one straight move.
Tang Li Xue quickly used [Supreme Speed Sword Style] in that instant right before the gigantic metal bone dragon almost crashed onto her, and her slender figure vanished in an instant as she shed to the other corner of the colosseum.
"It should be okay, right...? My armies should not die because of physical strike or des." Tang Li Xue tried tofort herself.
Chapter 442: [Purple Ghost Flame] VS [Flame of Pride]!
Chapter 442: [Purple Ghost me] VS [me of Pride]!
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, when her armies of death began to recover themselves, the gigantic metal bone dragon emitted a suction force and absorbed the Death Qi from Tang Li Xue''s armies of death.
The Death Qi around Tang Li Xue''s armies of death dried in only a few moments, and they could only fall lifelessly back onto the colosseum''s floor.
"What?! What the hell is happening?! Is that¡ thing just absorbing the Death Qi from my armies?!" Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and disbelief.
The gigantic metal bone dragon turned its menacing head to face Tang Li Xue and bared its sharp metal fangs toward her again.
RRROOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRR~!!!
Tang Li Xue quickly put up her battle stance to face the gigantic metal bone dragon, but she was immediately thrown into confusion.
What could she use to face this gigantic metal bone dragon?
Her fragile-looking arms or legs? They might snap into two as the gigantic metal bone dragon run her down like a high-speed truck...
The [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp? But it did not look like a weapon customized for close-range fights at all... Tang Li Xue might really cry a bucket of tears if the Heavenly Treasure ranking 832nd got ruined here because she used it carelessly as a stick to beat an enemy with a metal body like this gigantic metal bone dragon...
When Tang Li Zue still hesitated on what to do, the gigantic metal bone dragon already pped its giant pair of heavy metal wings toward Tang Li Xue!
SHRING... SHRING... SHRING... SHRING... SHRING...
Many sharp metal des shot out from its giant pair of heavy metal wings and flew toward Tang Li Xue at once!
Tang Li Xue''s expression also turned solemn as she raised the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp to block its attack.
Tang Li Xue''s upper body suddenly spun while her feet swiftly took a circr step, then she forcefully brandished the [Scepter of Disaster] like swinging a sword with all of her might.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spin!
BAANG~!!! BAANG~!!! BAANG~!!! BAANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue managed to block several tens of sharp metal des, but the otherrge number of sharp metal des were ready to swallow her and tear her apart into bloody pulps.
Puff... Puff... Puff... Puff... Puff...
Some of the sharp metal des already flew past her defense, then managed to cut some parts of her ck cloak and the sleeves of her white clothes.
"Tsk, there are just too many of them! I cannot block all of them!" Tang Li Xueined as she decided to roll to her right side instead.
CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... CLANG...
Arge number of sharp metal des struck the ce where Tang Li Xue has stood before, along with the wall behind her.
If Tang Li Xue was even one step toote to dodge them, her body might probably already have been nailed to the wall or ground right now.
But the danger Tang Li Xue faced was far from over.
RRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRR~!!!
The gigantic metal bone dragon already rushed toward Tang Li Xue, who was still on the ground but already tried to stand up, and it opened itsrge maw to bite Tang Li Xue.
"Damn it! This monster is really not nning on giving me any time to even take a breath!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anger as she tried to roll around again to dodge the gigantic metal bone dragon''s bite.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!!
When the head of the gigantic metal bone dragon struck the ground, Tang Li Xue already managed to roll out from there. She quickly kicked the ground and stood up, then kept her distance with the gigantic metal bone dragon again.
However, the gigantic metal bone dragon already opened its giant jaw again and aimed it at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue did not know what this gigantic metal bone dragon was trying to do right now, but she had a hunch that it was definitely not something good or beneficial for her.
"Now what?! What is this monster trying to do right now?" Tang Li Xue murmured as she raised her vignce to the maximum.
WEEEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
The chilling aura suddenly umted in the deepest part of the gigantic metal bone dragon''s mouth, and it started to shine with intense purple light.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered violently as she widened her eyes in surprise when she sensed the destructive power umted in the gigantic metal bone dragon''s mouth.
"That move looks much dangerous than before!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she started to calcte her next move.
The gigantic metal bone dragon''s next attack might take quite some time to charge, but Tang Li Xue knew that it would not be easy for her to dodge or block that next attackter.
"Since I might not be able to avoid or block it, then I will just meet it head-on!" Tang Li Xue said with a firm tone as she urged the Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian to wake up.
[Perfect Assimtion]!
YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~!!!
A deafening Phoenix''s cry resounded through the entire colosseum as the Phoenix of Pride rose from its slumber and assimted with Tang Li Xue.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The deep-blue me of Pride exploded out from Tang Li Xue''s body, and her slender figure was d in deep-blue me of Pride in that instant.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as the deep-blue me of Pride gathered and umted in her body...
BWOOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
The gigantic metal bone dragon shot out a pir of purple light toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue suddenly opened her topaz blue eyes as the deep-blue light shone from the deepest part of her eyes, then she blew out all of the me of Pride that she already umted at once.
[Fire Breath]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue me of Pride shed head-on against the pir of purple light from the gigantic metal bone dragon.
The two of them were equally powerful, and neither one of them would yield to the other, but unfortunately, Tang Li Xue only had less time to umte her deep-blue me of Pride previously, which in return made her fall into a bit of disadvantage in their sh right now.
Her deep-blue me of Pride was slowly pushed back bit by bit by the pir of purple light shot by the gigantic metal bone dragon.
''Damn it! I still could not win against it head-on?! How irritating?! Should I dodge it to the side while my [me Breath] slowed it down?'' Tang Li Xue cursed and groaned in her mind, but she already decided on what to do in her mind.
[Sun Dragon sh]!
Tang Li Xue swiftlypressed her deep-blue me of Pride onto her feet, then forcefully detonated it to propel herself toward her left side.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM~!!!
The pir of purple light shot by the gigantic metal bone dragon struck the ground where Tang Li Xue had stood just now and created arge deep crater on it.
Tang Li Xue has managed to avoid the pir of purple light, but the gigantic metal bone dragon already anticipated her movement ahead of time and pounced toward Tang Li Xue right after she dodged the pir of purple light.
RROOOAAAAARRRR~!!!
The gigantic metal bone dragon brandished its giant metal w toward Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in frustration since she could no longer avoid the gigantic metal bone dragon''s attack anymore after she was using [Sun Dragon sh] to move.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Redirection Flow!
This was the technique to alter the trajectory of the opponent''s attack by redirecting the flow of power to the other direction.
With this [Redirection Flow], Tang Li Xue waved her right hand and tried to redirect the gigantic metal bone dragon''s massive w attack to another direction.
BBBAAAAAAAAAAANNNNGGGGG~!!!
The gigantic metal bone dragon''s massive w struck the ground on the right side beside Tang Li Xue and left several long deep gashes on it.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue felt her right hand felt numb, and there was a long bleeding scratch on her arm since there were many sharp parts like spikes on the massive w of a gigantic metal bone dragon.
RRROOOOOAAAAAAARRRR~!!!
After its w attack was deflected by Tang Li Xue and hit the ground, the gigantic metal bone dragon opened its massive metal jaw this time and intended to bite Tang Li Xue off instead.
Tang Li Xue already swiftlypressed the deep-blue me of Pride onto her feet, but with such a massive metal head, Tang Li Xue could not dodge its attack anymore even if she used [Sun Dragon sh] again to dash.
Left with no other option, Tang Li Xue decided to jump upward, since if not, the gigantic metal bone dragon would bite off the upper half of her body instead.
But doing so seemed like she jumped right into the mouth of the gigantic metal bone dragon and swallowed alive by it.
Of course, the gigantic metal bone dragon did not n to spat Tang Li Xue out again and dly swallowed her a whole.
BBWWWOOOOOOSSSSHHH~!!!
Not only that, but the gigantic metal bone dragon also stimted the Purple Ghost me in its body to incinerate Tang Li Xue inside its mouth.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue already used her deep-blue me of Pride to condense a cloak of me to protect herself from the gigantic metal bone dragon''s Purple Ghost me.
[Phoenix Cloak]!
Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue me of Pride and the gigantic metal bone dragon''s Purple Ghost me shed head-on once more.
But this time, the deep-blue me of Pride cloaked and protected Tang Li Xue from all harm while the Purple Ghost me wanted to burn her to cinders.
"Damn it! It cannot continue like this anymore, if not, I will certainly be exhausted sooner orter and die here! Sigh... It seems I can only go all out from here and stake it all..." Tang Li Xue murmured as cold sweat started to damp her forehead and back.
Chapter 443: [Perpetual Slash]!
Chapter 443: [Perpetual sh]!
Tang Li Xue stored the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp back into her space pouch, then she took a deep breath as her expression turned colder and more solemn.
"All right... let''s begin! This is a big gamble. Win or die would be decided here in a few moments." Tang Li Xue said as she took a deep breath and began to ignite all of the me of Pride in her body at once without any n to reserve it even one bit.
The deep blue me of Pride from Tang Li Xue''s body became increasingly hotter, and the [Phoenix Cloak] around her body started to flicker violently.
BWWWOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
The [Phoenix Cloak] managed to push away all of the gigantic metal bone dragon''s Purple Ghost me in that instant, and Tang Li Xue immediately used that chance to condense all of her deep-blue me of Pride into something even more powerful.
[Paragon me Sword]!
The deep-blue me sword was created from the condensation of her entire me of Pride and the sea of me Qi in her Dantian.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue could not use her Vitality Energy and Mental Energy here since they were all sealed along with her divine abilities and skills. If not, this deep-blue me sword could be more than twice as powerful as it has right now.
Tang Li Xue grasped the deep-blue me sword tightly with both of her hands, and she could feel the powerful pulse from the deep-blue me sword that connected to herself.
It was as if the sword itself was the part of her body...
But the gigantic metal bone dragon''s Purple Ghost me already started to assault Tang Li Xue once again from all directions and threatened to engulf her a whole, then burned her body and soul to dust.
The deep-blue light shone from the deepest part of Tang Li Xue''s eyes as she suddenly twisted her upper body and swung the deep-blue me sword in her grasp with all of her might.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spin!
When Tang Li Xue brandished the zing deep-blue me sword in her grasp, the sea of Purple Ghost me around her was split into two in a blink of an eye, but Tang Li Xue did not n to end her move until there...
"UOOOOOOHHHHH~!!! Pierce through everything, [Paragon me Sword]!" Tang Li Xue bellowed out loud as she suddenly jumped upward and thrust the deep-blue me sword in her grasp toward the ceiling.
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGG~!!!
The deep-blue me sword in Tang Li Xue''s grasp stabbed through the metal ceiling until the tip exited through the gigantic metal bone dragon''s spine.
RRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRR~!!!
The gigantic metal bone dragon could not feel any pain even though Tang Li Xue stabbed through its body, but it still could feel that Tang Li Xue started to struggle to get out from its body, so it roared out loud to arouse the Purple Ghost me in its body to attack Tang Li Xue more fiercely.
"It is already toote for you to make your move... Just go back into your deep slumber and sleep forever. You are no longer belong to this world." Tang Li Xue whispered to the gigantic metal bone dragon as she jumped out from therge crack on its back.
After finished herst words, Tang Li Xue raised the zing deep-blue me sword in her grasp once more until it reached above her head, and then she swung it down with all of her remaining strength while injected all of her remaining Qi and me of Pride into the zing deep-blue me sword.
[Paragon Sword Technique], Perpetual sh!
The zing deep-blue me sword in Tang Li Xue''s grasp has grown bigger until it reached taller than two meters in that instant.
The sharpest sword Qi and sword intentpressed in the [Paragon me Sword] also explosively increased right at this moment.
It could be said this [Perpetual sh] was the most powerful move in [Paragon Sword Technique]. It was the sword technique that staked everything in one sh.
This [Perpetual sh]''s sword move will keep shing the target until it shredded the target to pieces or until the energy waspletely spent.
Just like now, all of the energies from Tang Li Xue''s [Paragon me Sword] werepletely spend after Tang Li Xue used [Perpetual sh], but her sh created a swirling deep-blue me dancing around like a huge tempest of deep-blue me.
CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... CLANG...
The huge tempest of deep-blue me rained upon the gigantic metal bone dragon, brought down the sharpest sword intent, sword Qi, and extremely hot deep-blue me with them.
All of those storms of energies started to tear the gigantic metal bone dragon at once from its giant pair of metal wings, dismantled ityer byyer like the sharpest chef''s knives.
RRROOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRRRR~!!!
The unresigned gigantic metal bone dragon roared angrily toward Tang Li Xue, but there was still nothing it could do to get out from the tempest of Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh].
CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... BBAAAAAAAANNGG~!!!
After cutting the giant pair of metal wings to pieces, the huge tempest of deep-blue me and sharpest sword intent began to tear through the gigantic metal bone dragon''s sturdy metal body and des-filled metal limbs.
RRROOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRRRR~!!!
The gigantic metal bone dragon roared toward the ceiling for onest time as Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] ripped it apart to pieces.
Even the thick metallic armor could not do anything to defend against the extremely high temperature that could melt everything and the sharpest sword intent that could cut through everything.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue vigntly looked at the gigantic metal bone dragon that turned into scraps of metal under the barrage shes of the stormy tempest of deep-blue mes without missing any single moment.
This was herst attack and herst struggle to win after all. She would bepletely spent all of her remaining strength and would not be able to muster any more strength to attack or struggle after this.
If the gigantic metal bone dragon somehow survived this final attack of hers, Tang Li Xue might be the one to lose in the end.
After she saw the gigantic metal bone dragon had been cut down into scraps of metal by her [Perpetual sh], Tang Li Xue finally could not hold on anymore and fell on her knee too as the extreme exhaustion flooded every part of her body.
Tang Li Xue was breathing heavily, and she felt really dizzy because of theck of Qi and stamina. She was sweating profusely as she already tried to recover her Qi and stamina as fast as she could.
"Huff... Huff... Huff... Thank God, it really works... If not, the situation would be really dangerous for me right now..." Tang Li Xue sighed in relief as she sat on the ground and took a deep breath to calm down.
Tang Li Xue took out a leather water pouch and drank a big gulp of water from it.
PPPFFFFFFFFTTT~!!!
Tang Li Xue spurted out the water in her mouth when she saw an intense purple light shone from under the demolished metal body of the gigantic metal bone dragon.
Tang Li Xue quickly stood up in vignt, but she staggered around instead like a drunken person since her Qi and stamina were alreadypletely spent, and all of her limbs felt really powerless.
But Tang Li Xue still forcefully dragged her exhausted body to check what that intense purple light really was.
"This is... the source of Purple Ghost me!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise after she dug out the intense purple light from under the metal rubbles of the gigantic metal bone dragon.
Just when Tang Li Xue tried to touch the source of Purple Ghost me to examine it more closely, the Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian suddenly flew out and greedily swallowed the source of Purple Ghost me right in front of Tang Li Xue''s eyes.
Tang Li Xue: .....
Tang Li Xue did not even have any time to react or scold the Phoenix of Pride before it flew back into her Dantian and went back to sleep to digest the source of Purple Ghost me.
Under the continuous nourishment of [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl], the? Phoenix of Pride could easily recover much faster than how Tang Li Xue was recovering her Qi and stamina.
The Phoenix of Pride would certainly grow much strongerter after itpletely digested the source of Purple Ghost me.
However, Tang Li Xue still felt very displeased and angry with the Phoenix of Pride since it swallowed the source of Purple Ghost me without her permission again, just like how it consumed her seed of Phoenix''s me before without her permission too before.
"It seems I must scold that damned bird properlyter! How could that damned bird consume every good thing without asking for my permission EVERY DAMN TIME?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in displeasure and scolded the Phoenix of Pride while she continued to take a rest again to recover her Qi and stamina.
Nyaaaaaannn~!!!
Tang Li Xue immediately realized Little Loki who still sat silently on her right shoulder since the very start.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue almost forgot about Little Loki all this time when she fought so fiercely against the gigantic metal bone dragon before.
"Little Loki! Are you all right?" Tang Li Xue worriedly asked while checked Little Loki carefully.
She sighed in relief after making sure Little Loki waspletely all right and uninjured.
Actually, Little Loki itself was never in danger at all. With its [Instant Teleportation] it got from consuming the [Amulet of Teleportation] from Teacher Li Wei, it could easily teleport around to avoid any danger.
"That is right! Little Loki is still the best! You are so much better than that egoistic damned bird! Let''s just forget about that egoistic damned bird! Who cares about it anyway..." Tang Li Xue praised Little Loki while kept patting its tiny furry head gently.
When Tang Li Xue still took a rest and feed Little Loki with the beast cores, the archaic voice resounded in her mind again all of a sudden.
"Congrattion, Fated young one! You have passed my third trial, the Trial of Wits!"
Chapter 444: The Fourth Trial, Trial of Talent and Aptitude!
Chapter 444: The Fourth Trial, Trial of Talent and Aptitude!
"Honestly, I never thought you will really defeat that ancient weapon. You actually only need to stall for more time against the ancient weapon and crack the puzzle on thest gate to pass this trial."
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes in disdain and thought: ''Do you really think it was easy to stall for the time against that horrible thing and cracking the puzzle on the gate while at it?! That monster almost tear me apart so many times when I fought against it before! If I identally made just one single slip, that monster would have already turned me into minced meat by now!''
"Sigh... But this ending might be good for that ancient weapon since it might be a form of release for it. That ancient weapon is actually a dead lizard beast, but we, Human Race decided to use it as an ingredient to create a perfect weapon to fight Undead Race because of its sturdy body."
"By using its sturdy body as a vessel, we smelted the reinforced steel into its sturdy body to make it more powerful and sturdier, then we attached the high-ranking me source as the energy source. Unfortunately, the shortsighted Beast Race forbade this kind of practice, and the project was forced to shut down in the end."
The archaic voice sighed as he sounded so disappointed and frustrated.
However, Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered violently instead after she heard the words from the archaic voice, and her mouth also twitched in dissatisfaction.
''So, this is the reason why Beast Race hates Human Race so much. Human Race is always disregard everything to reach their objective like always! Tsk, tsk, tsk... How can they use the dead body to create something like that?!'' Tang Li Xueined in her mind.
But she did not want to waste her breath to argue with the will of a dead person, so she decided to not say anything back.
"Anyway, you have passed the third trial, the Trial of Wits, so you have the right to take the fourth trial, the Trial of Talent and Aptitude."
"Just like before, the fourth trial will be even more dangerous and difficult than the third trial, so you can decide to give up and retreat if you want."
"You cane out from the blue gate if you decided to give up. But if you decided to continue, you can proceed forward and enter the red gate in front of you."
"The fourth trial, the Trial of Talent and Aptitude, will begin as soon as you enter that red gate, so you can take your time to rest and think your options wisely for now."
The archaic voice stopped speaking again after he exined everything to Tang Li Xue, and the two gates appeared in an instant in front of Tang Li Xue for her to choose from.
There was a red gate in front of her that would bring her to the next trial, while the blue gate on her left side would lead her to retreat from the trial and exit the Crystal Pce Tomb.
Of course, Tang Li Xue never nned to retreat after she was going this far, but she still decided to take a rest for three days in this third trialst room to recover all of her injuries, Qi, and stamina first before proceeding to the next trial.
After resting for a few days, Tang Li Xue''s Qi and stamina were finally restoredpletely, and all of her wounds also recovered. It could be said that her body, Qi, and stamina were already restored back to optimum condition.
"Test of wits and intelligence? What a big liar?! If I am not strong enough, I would still get killed even if I have high intelligence in this trial! I will never believe in that liar''s words again!" Tang Li Xue nagged in displeasure.
"Trial of Talent and Aptitude, huh... Whatever... Strength seems like the only thing that matters in all the trials. I already went this far, so I hope my strength will be enough to pass all the trials." Tang Li Xue prayed as she pushed the red gate in front of her with her right hand while her left hand kept hugging Little Loki in her embrace, then she stepped into the next room behind the red gate vigntly.
Surprisingly, there was only a vast empty room in the next room.
WWWEEEEEEEEEENNGGG~!!!
After Tang Li Xue and Little Loki passed the red gate and stepped into the next room, the red gate was disappeared in that instant, and Tang Li Xue could no longer retreat from this trial anymore.
Her only choice was only to pass this Fourth Trial, Trial of Talent and Aptitude before she could choose to retreat or to proceed again.
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and searched for a clue about the fourth trial in the entire vast empty room.
After a few whiles, she only managed to find an old altar at the north side of the room, and there was a crystal orb floating on the top of the old altar.
The crystal orb was really eye-catching since it kept emitting mysterious faint white light and ancient aura.
"What should I do now? There is nothing in this room! That voice also did not tell me what to do in this fourth trial at all! Damn it! Should I just touch that crystal orb to enter the fourth trial?" Tang Li Xue grumbled while she kept staring suspiciously at the crystal orb floating on the top of the old altar.
Tang Li Xue bit her pink lips in hesitation.
Actually, she really did not want to touch this suspicious-looking crystal orb since no one will know what will happen after she touched it, but it seems she really has no other choice right now.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth to push away her hesitation as she slowly stretched her left hand to touch the crystal orb.
PPPYYYAAAAAAAAAAASSSHHHH~!!!
The mysterious faint white light became blinding light the moment Tang Li Xue patted the crystal orb with her left hand.
Tang Li Xue quickly wanted to pull her left palm from the crystal orb in reflex, but she could not even move it at all as if her left palm was stuck with the crystal orb.
Nyaaaaaaan~!!!
Little Loki already vigntly stood on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder and growled softly toward the crystal orb.
Just when Little Loki wanted to make its move to help out Tang Li Xue, the archaic voice suddenly resounded again in the mind of Tang Li Xue and Little Loki.
"Analyzeplete... Cultivation at Rank 3 Acupuncture Opening Stage, the current age is under one year. Aptitude''s final score is beyond excellent."
"Initializing the fourth trial, the Trial of Talent... Build a suitable model as the target''s opponent... Complete! The fourth trial starts!"
After the archaic voice stopped talking, Tang Li Xue could already remove her left palm from the crystal orb, but she still did not dare to drop her guard even for one bit since the archaic voice said that the fourth trial has officially started now.
The crystal orb also stopped shining so brightly and returned back into its dim light once again.
But Tang Li Xue did not have any free time to care about the condition of the crystal orb since she already put all of her attention to the center of the empty room where something seems crawling out from nothingness.
"I understand now! So, this room is the same as the sparring room in the Education Department at Myriad Foxes Academy! It can also project something out from nowhere." Tang Li Xue murmured as her topaz blue eyes shone brighter in understanding.
Tang Li Xue quickly took out the [Scepter of Disaster] from her space pouch and gripped it tightly like a sword, then pointed it toward the center of the room.
When Tang Li Xue already fully prepared herself to face whatever horrible creature that wille out to face her in this fourth trial, she was madepletely dumbfounded by the appearance of her opponent in front of her.
Eaaahh~! Aaahhh~! Oooooh~!
Well... It was actually a cute-looking male baby with a bald head who wore baggy white clothes...
Tang Li Xue: .....
Little Loki: .....
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were too speechless and dumbfounded to even react.
They only kept staring at the cute-looking male baby for a few moments without moving or say anything as their brain still slowly processed what was in front of their eyes.
Eaaaaaaaahh~!
The cute-looking male baby looked the scene around excitedly for a while, then he seems to be attracted to Tang Li Xue and Little Loki, so he immediately crawled toward them.
Tang Li Xue swiftly jumped backward to keep her distance from the cute-looking male baby and vigntly pointed the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp toward the male baby.
"That was really close! I almost got cheated to drop my guard because of his cute appearance. This... tiny creature should be my opponent for this fourth trial, right? So, he deliberately put this kind of deceitful appearance to let me drop my guard?! What a horrible devious scheme!" Tang Li Xue said as cold sweat started to pour from her forehead.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth as she braved herself to attack the cute-looking male baby and brandished the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp toward him while shouted: "Take this, you deceitful creature~!"
SMAAAAAAAAAAACK~!!!
Although, Tang Li Xue thought and said something like that, but she clearly did not have the heart to hurt or attack the male baby so her [Scepter of Disaster] only smacked the male baby''s head lightly.
But despite that, the male baby still rolled back a few times because of Tang Li Xue''s smack, and he started to sob while staring at Tang Li Xue with a wronged expression.
OOOEEEEEE~!!! OOOEEEEEE~!!! OOOEEEEEE~!!!
Then the male baby began to bawl out loud uncontrobly...
Tang Li Xue: .....
Little Loki: .....
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki became speechless and dumbfounded once more since they did not know what to do anymore.
Chapter 445: Accused of Cheating?
Chapter 445: used of Cheating?
"Damn it! What is this fourth trial all about? What should I do in this fourth trial? Defeating this baby, babysitting this baby, or what?!" Tang Li Xueined in a frustrated tone.
Tang Li Xue felt really sorry for the cute-looking male baby that currently still bawling out loud.
She really wanted to hug and appeased the male baby to stop it from crying, but she still felt skeptical and afraid that the male baby was only the trap prepared by the trial to catch her off guard.
When Tang Li Xue still felt confused about what she must do next, the archaic voice suddenly spoke to her again: "This is...?! How could your age be less than one year old?! Your age is clearly around fifteen years old right now! You are cheating!"
Tang Li Xue blinked her topaz blue eyes again and again in disbelief with a dumbfounded expression as her mind was still slowly processing what the archaic voice had said to her.
"Eh? What did you just say?! EEEEEHHHHH?! What? Me? Cheating? Are you kidding me?! I do not even understand anything about the mechanism of the test or the trial until now! How the hell can I even cheat?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in disbelief and anger to defend herself.
"Since cheating has been detected, another suitable model will be build based on the target''s current age as the target''s opponent... Complete!" The archaic voice said again without any care about Tang Li Xue''s opinion and scold.
The crystal orb that floating on the top of the altar shone so brightly once again without Tang Li Xue touched it this time.
"Damn it! This bast*rd is really pissing me off!" Tang Li Xue cursed while gritted her teeth in anger and annoyance since she could feel that the situation was not looking good for her.
From the archaic voice''s words, Tang Li Xue managed to get some clues about this fourth trial.
In short, Tang Li Xue guessed that the crystal orb tested her cultivation''s aptitude based on her current age and current cultivation rank, then it would create an enemy for her to face based on her age and cultivation rank to test her battle prowess and martial art''s talent.
Tang Li Xue figured out that she only need to defeat that enemy to pass this fourth trial.
Tang Li Xue also knew that the crystal orb made a mistake before since it created an enemy based on her current age, this one-year-old male baby, for her to face before.
Actually, the crystal orb did not make any mistake at all since Tang Li Xue''s current age was really less than one year old, but the will of this crystal pce tomb''s owner seemed to use Tang Li Xue of cheating right now.
So, it seems the will of this crystal pce tomb''s owner would use the crystal orb right now to create another much more powerful opponent for Tang Li Xue to face based on her appearance as fifteen years old girl.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had guessed just now, the will of this crystal pce tomb''s owner really used the crystal orb to create a fifteen years old enemy for her to face in this fourth trial.
A fifteen years old handsome male who wore luxurious ck clothes and held a cool-looking ck-colored treasured sword was summoned out by the crystal orb this time.
Even without her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability, Tang Li Xue could still sense how powerful this handsome male was from his intimidating aura.
Tang Li Xue immediately raised her vignce to the maximum as she raised the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp toward the handsome male and put her battle stance.
"This is me when I am fifteen years old. Since I have not reached Immortal rank yet, you can call my current self Tian Jian (Heavenly Sword). Your objective is to use all of your martial arts, weapons, treasures, skills... You can use your everything to defeat my current fifteen years old self. You can even use any poison or hidden spell if you want to." The handsome male named Tian Jian said to Tang Li Xue with a monotonous tone.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied with an angry tone: "Use my everything to fight you? Your current cultivation is already at Foundation Establishment Stage, so how could I win against you even if I use my everything?! You used me of cheating before, but you are the one that is clearly cheating right now!"
"I am not cheating. My cultivation when I am fifteen years old was truly at Rank 3 Foundation Establishment Stage, only half step away from reaching Rank 4." Tian Jian answered Tang Li Xue with a monotonous tone again.
Tang Li Xue sneered in disdain and retorted: "Only the young people below twenty years old with the cultivation not higher than Acupuncture Opening Stage could enter here. You should know about this too, right?"
"But now, you give me a Rank 3 Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator as my opponent? If you do not want to hand over your inheritance so badly, why do you even need to bother to give an impossible trial like this? Just seal your tomb somewhere safe and put many protection arrays, so nobody could enter your tomb forever!" Tang Li Xue mocked mercilessly with a resentful tone.
"That is true, but all of you can still breakthrough to Foundation Establishment Stage after entering this Inheritance Ground Tablet. In fact, you should be d since you face my fifteen years old self and not my twenty years old self instead." Tian Jian calmly retorted Tang Li Xue.
"Your twenty years old self?" Tang Li Xue frowned deeply in suspicion as she softly murmured.
"The cultivation of my twenty years old self is already at the peak of Core Formation Stage, only one step away from Nascent Soul Stage." Tian Jian said again with a monotonous tone.
Tang Li Xue almost slipped and fell in shock when she heard Tian Jian''s reply.
"All right, our talking time is over. We only need to talk with our strength from now on! But before we fight..." Tian Jian muttered as he red at the male baby that still bawling out loud near Tang Li Xue, then he suddenly thrust his treasured ck sword toward the male baby.
"Watch out!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a stern tone to the male baby as her slender body reflexively shed toward the male baby to save him from Tian Jian''s attack.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Redirection Flow!
Tang Li Xue brandished the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp to meet with Tian Jian''s treasured ck sword.
Then Tang Li Xue skillfully redirected his powerful sword thrust toward the other direction with [Redirection Flow] when her [Scepter of Disaster] shed against Tian Jian''s treasured ck sword.
BAAAAAAANG~!!!
Tian Jian''s treasured ck sword stabbed deeply onto the ground beside the male baby instead because of Tang Li Xue''s [Redirection Flow].
However, Tian Jian quickly stretched his left hand to strangle the male baby''s neck, but Tang Li Xue would never let him do what he wanted.
She immediately spun her upper body while her feet swiftly took a circr step, then she forcefully shed the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp like swinging a sword with all of her strength.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spin!
BAAAAAAAAAAANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Scepter of Disaster] struck Tian Jian''s left hand heavily until it was thrown back, but Tian Jian only took one step back when Tang Li Xue already used all of her strength in that sh.
His left hand did not even get injured by Tang Li Xue''s strike.
It could easily be seen how far the strength difference between Tang Li Xue and Tian Jian was from this.
"Tsk, damn it! If only I wield the real sharp sword instead of this blunt scepter, I should have already cut off his left hand by now!" Tang Li Xue spoke in a regretful tone, while her left hand already grabbed the male baby and hugged him in her embrace.
Tang Li Xue quickly jumped back to keep her distance from Tian Jian, but unfortunately, Tian Jian already anticipated that and stabbed his treasured ck sword repeatedly toward Tang Li Xue.
[Heaven Sword Technique], Flooding Stabs!
Tian Jian thrust his treasured ck sword so fast toward Tang Li Xue until he created so many afterimages of his treasured ck sword. It looked like Tang Li Xue was assaulted by a tsunami of ck swords.
Tang Li Xue felt dumbfounded, and she dropped her jaw in shock, but she reacted very fast as she raised the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp again.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
Tang Li Xue suddenly thrust her [Scepter of Disaster] forward to meet with Tian Jian''s [Flooding Stabs].
CLAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Scepter of Disaster] shed violently head-on against Tian Jian''s treasured ck sword.
Tang Li Xue''s [Tracing Counter] was actually used to trace the enemy''s weakness and stabbed right through it.
No matter how fast that enemy movement to avoid or parry it, the [Tracing Counter] would track and chase after it.
Of course, [Tracing Counter] also has its weakness. It could only be used to counter the enemy''s attack and could not be used to attack the enemy freely.
However, Tang Li Xue used her [Tracing Counter], not to attack his weakness, but to track Tian Jian''s treasured ck sword that moved so fast to stop his attack just now.
Yet Tang Li Xue was the one who got thrown off several meters backward after her attack shed head-on against Tian Jian''s attack.
She quickly somersaulted until her feet nted back onto the ground, but she was still forced to take a few steps back again after that because the momentum from Tian Jian''s attack was too powerful.
Even after she stabilized herself, her right hand still felt numb and trembling violently. She could not even hold the [Scepter of Disaster] properly right now.
"YOU BAST*RD... How could you mercilessly try to kill a baby just like that?! He is only an innocent baby! He does not even have any strength to retaliate!" Tang Li Xue scolded Tian Jian with an angry tone.
Chapter 446: One-Sided Battle!
Chapter 446: One-Sided Battle!
"That baby is a mistake created by this fourth trial because you cheated about your age earlier, so it is my job as a new test model to eliminate that mistake to set this fourth trial back to the proper path and test your talent in martial arts." Tian Jian replied to Tang Li Xue with a monotonous tone.
"A mistake created by this fourth trial? What do you mean by that? Eh... Wait a minute... I never cheat about my age!" Tang Li Xue asked back in confusion, but she immediately became angry again.
However, Tian Jian did not care about Tang Li Xue''s words and started to attack the baby in her embrace again.
Tian Jian raised his ck treasured sword toward the ceiling, and his terrifying sword Qi began to umte on his ck treasured sword.
Even Tang Li Xue could sense the dreadful auraing from Tian Jian''s ck treasured sword.
She knew in an instant that Tian Jian''s next attack would be powerful enough to break her defense and kill her along with the baby in her embrace.
Tang Li Xue instantly decided to dodge Tian Jian''s next attack instead of blocking or parrying it.
When Tian Jian swung his ck treasured sword down with all of his might, Tang Li Xue also simultaneously used her [Supreme Speed Sword Style] and [Snow Dance Step] at the same time to dodge it.
The beautiful snowke started raining down upon Tang Li Xue, and the tiled floor below her feet was covered with a thinyer of frost, then her slender figure swiftly shed away as she took her steps ording to the [Supreme Speed Sword Style].
[Heaven Sword Technique], Heaven Splitting sh!
BBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue was barely able to avoid Tian Jian''s powerful attack on time, and his powerful attack struck the tiled floor under Tang Li Xue''s feet where Tang Lu Xue had stood before instead.
Tian Jian''s sh was so powerful that it even managed to split the tiled floor and leave a very deep and long fissure on it, but it was not over until there yet.
The sharp sword Qi from Tian Jian''s sh made a terrific shockwave that was shot forward until it collided with the wall and created a deep vertical crack on the wall.
The terrific shockwave from Tian Jian''s sh even affected the dodging Tang Li Xue.
It shredded the back part of her ck cloak to pieces, only leaving the ck hood to cover her head, and also wounded her internally, even though the terrific shockwave created from Tian Jian''s sharp sword Qi only managed to graze her back.
PUUUFT~!!!
Tang Li Xue spurted out a mouthful of blood as she stumbled forward because the terrifying shockwave grazed her back.
Tian Jian saw that Tang Li Xue currently staggered forward, and he would never let this chance go.
He immediately thrust the ck treasured sword in his grasp toward Tang Li Xue''s defenseless back.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth as she could clearly sense that her current situation was very dire, and her life was in great danger.
Just when Tian Jian''s ck treasured sword almost stabbed onto Tang Li Xue''s back, Tang Li Xue used her [Shadow Striders]''s equipment skill in an instant without any hesitation.
[Shadow sh]!
Tang Li Xue instantly teleported onto the shadow created by the left side of the wall and made Tian Jian''s stab missed.
Tang Li Xue was breathing heavily as cold sweat already damped her forehead and back.
She quickly put the cute-looking male baby onto the tiled floor since she already realized that she would definitely get killed by Tian Jian sooner orter if she kept fighting against Tian Jian while she must also holding the male baby with her left hand and protecting him from Tian Jian''s attack.
She also put Little Loki, who always silently sat on her right shoulder, onto the tiled floor, just right beside the cute-looking male baby.
"Little Loki, please help me guard this little one here, okay? I promise I will give you a lot of snackster after this fourth trial is over." Tang Li Xue said to Little Loki as she patted Little Loki''s furry head and smiled gently at it.
Little Loki looked in a bit of daze, and it did not even pay attention to Tang Li Xue''s plead as it kept observing the cute-looking male baby with a suspicious stare.
Tang Li Xue did not have any spare time to pay attention to Little Loki''s response or expression clearly since she currently prepared her mind to fight against the powerful Tian Jian head-on.
Meanwhile, Tian Jian was already chasing after Tang Li Xue while brandishing his treasured ck sword toward her from behind, but Tang Li Xue also already swiftly turned around and charged toward him instead.
Tian Jian fearlessly held his treasured ck sword tightly with both of his hands when he saw Tang Li Xue swiftly charged toward him.
Suddenly, the treasured ck sword in Tian Jian''s grasp vanished along with both of his hands because both of his hands were moving too fast for anyone to see.
[Heaven Sword Technique], Rainbow Cutter!
Tang Li Xue''s expression instantly turned solemn when she saw Tian Jian''s fearsome sword technique.
However, she forcefully suppressed the strong urge to step back and keep her distance from Tian Jian, then used her own sword technique to counter Tian Jian''s attack.
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], sh Draw!
The technique used the most by the previous fourth crystal puppet in the second trial... The simplest offense sword technique in [Supreme Speed Sword Style], but the fastest among all sword techniques that Tang Li Xue has learned until now.
Yes, Tang Li Xue had decided to use her fastest speed type sword technique to fight head-on against Tian Jian''s speed type sword technique!
Of course, she also added her [Snow Dance Step] to increase her speed even further.
Tang Li Xue even condensed [Paragon Sword Technique]''s sharpest sword intent and made it enveloped the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp.
This move would make the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp much sharper than any normal sword!
But those were not all.
She also decided to use the weapon skill from [Critical Strikers]!
[Final Strike]!
This [Final Strike] would further increase the strength of her current attack by three times and the speed of her attack by 30%!
Tang Li Xue intended to forcefully make Tian Jian revealing an opening with this attack, then she could utilize that opening to defeat him.
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure had vanished as she shed faster than anyone''s eyes could see toward Tian Jian, and then she swiftly swung the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp toward Tian Jian.
CLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Scepter of Disaster] shed head-on heavily against Tian Jian''s treasured ck sword!
Their sh was so violent that it created an enormous shockwave and fire sparks.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth as she used all of her might to push the [Scepter of Disaster] in her tight grasp forward.
Even Tang Li Xue already used her every effort and technique in this strike, but Tian Jian could still easily swing his treasured ck sword until Tang Li Xue was thrown off backward.
"I am still easily pushed back even with the [Final Strike]''s power amplification effect?! Damn it! Just how far the difference between our strength!" Tang Li Xue scolded between her teeth in displeasure as she quicklynded her feet back onto the ground and stopped her flying momentum before she could crash onto the wall behind her.
But just when Tang Li Xue prepared herself to fight against Tian Jian again, everything she saw suddenly got distorted, and the scene in her eyes turned really blurry.
PPPUUUUUUUUUUUFFF~!!!
Suddenly, there was a long wound extended from her left shoulder to her right waist.
Tang Li Xue felt her body became weak, and she dropped on her knee as she spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood.
"I... I got injured?! How could it be? Since when I... Cough... Cough... Cough..." Tang Li Xue asked in confusion, but she immediately coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood since her blood started to flood her lung because of her horrible sh wound.
"It seems my first sh is too shallow since you are still alive right now. You are really lucky because your strike managed to stop my second sh. If not for that, your body should already split into many parts by now." Tian Jian said as he stared at Tang Li Xue with an expressionless face.
The total sh in Tian Jian''s [Rainbow Cutter] sword technique was the same as the color of the rainbow.
Seven colors... Seven shes...
Moreover, the speed and power of his sh would be doubled in each sh!
Tian Jian''s words were not sarcasm, and it was honestly true.
Tang Li Xue was really lucky since she managed to stop Tian Jian''s second sh!
If it was the third sh, fourth sh, fifth sh, sixth sh, or even seventh sh from Tian Jian''s [Rainbow Cutter]... Then Tang Li Xue would surely not be able to stop it since she could only barely able to stop his second sh!
''Tsk! This is all because that damned egoistic bird is still fast asleep to digest the source of Purple Ghost me! If not for that, I am sure I can... Sigh... All right, I admit it is my mistake. I should not call you damned or egoistic, soe on... Wake up quickly and help me fight this powerful bast*rd... or I might die soon, and your fate would be no different than me!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she tried to wake up the Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian, who was still fast asleep until now.
Chapter 447: The Worst Situation for Tang Li Xue!
Chapter 447: The Worst Situation for Tang Li Xue!
Unfortunately, the Phoenix of Pride in Tang Li Xue''s Dantian was still fast asleep despite Tang Li Xue''s plea for it to wake up and help her now.
The source of Purple Ghost me contained an enormous amount of me elemental energy after it umted for such a very long period of time since the gigantic metal bone dragon fell asleep all this time in the Crystal Pce Tomb.
Even for the Phoenix of Pride, it would still need at least two weeks to one month topletely digest the source of Purple Ghost me and improved itself to be a lot more powerful.
But it also means Tang Li Xue could probably no longer enter [Perfect Assimtion Mode] with her Phoenix of Pride until she was kicked out from this Inheritance Ground Tabletter.
This was clearly another big disadvantage for Tang Li Xue in this Inheritance Ground Tablet since her Beast Cultivation System already got sealed along with all of her skills and divine abilities.
It seems Tang Li Xue could only rely on her own cultivation and martial arts from now on as long as she was still in this Inheritance Ground Tablet.
Tang Li Xue was currently still on her knees since her body still felt really weak because her wound was too heavy.
However, Tang Li Xue already took an opportunity when she previously spoke with Tian Jian to secretly took out some [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from her space pouch and used it to heal herself.
But Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Regeneration +3] was the type that heals the wounds over time and not in an instant, so it would at least need a few minutes for Tang Li Xue''s wounds to feel better after she used the [Talisman of Regeneration +3] on herself.
Of course, Tian Jian was not patient enough to wait a few minutes for Tang Li Xue to recover her wounds!
Tian Jian already raised the treasured ck sword in his grasp and prepared to attack once again, but his target was not Tang Li Xue this time!
Tian Jian was suddenly dashing toward the cute-looking male baby that was currently still sitting beside Little Loki and thrust his treasured ck sword toward the male baby again.
"Damn it, how dare you...?! Stop there!" Tang Li Xue shouted with an anxious tone mixed with an angry tone as she saw Tian Jian started attacking the male baby again.
Tang Li Xue quickly jumped forward to stand up and sprint toward the male baby to protect him.
Unfortunately, her heavy wounds were still not recovered enough even with the effect from her [Talisman of Regeneration +3], and it made her body still feel weak, so Tang Li Xue stumbled forward instead because of it after she jumped forward.
Tang Li Xue fell onto the tiled floor right now, and she could only watch helplessly as Tian Jian stabbed his treasured ck sword toward the neck of the cute-looking male baby.
Just when the tip of Tian Jian''s treasured ck sword was only a few inches away from the male baby''s defenseless neck, and Tang Li Xue could only close her eyes in her powerlessness, but Little Loki suddenly patted the male baby''s shoulder with its tiny paw at thest moment.
Little Loki''s expression was filled with displeasure and disgust when it touched the male baby''s shoulder.
It seemed Little Loki, with its identity as one of the four Evil Fiend Beasts, really did not like to touch or help other creatures than Tang Li Xue.
Although Little Loki was really unwilling to help the cute-looking male baby, but it still chose toply with Tang Li Xue''s request.
When Tian Jian almost stabbed the male baby''s neck, Little Loki activated its [Instant Teleportation], the skill it managed to get after consuming the [Amulet of Teleportation] from Teacher Li Wei before, and Little Loki also brought the male baby with it.
Both Little Loki and the cute-looking male baby instantly teleported to the other farthest corner from this vast room.
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGG~!!!
Tian Jian''s treasured ck sword stabbed so deeply onto the tiled floor where the male baby had sat before Little Loki brought him away with its [Instant Teleportation].
Tian Jian''s powerful stab even managed to instantly split several hard tiles in front of him. If Tian Jian''s lethal sword thrust managed to strike the male baby''s neck, there was no doubt that the male baby would die in an instant without any time to feel pain.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw that Little Loki had managed to save the male baby at the most critical moment.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to ease the pain from her heavy wound as she tried to stand up again.
But she still staggered a bit when she stood up, and she even coughed out another few mouthfuls of blood.
Meanwhile, Tian Jian frowned deeply in displeasure since he failed to kill the male baby for the second time.
Tian Jian turned around to face Little Loki and the male baby at the farthest corner of this vast room, and he seemed to want to attack them again.
However, Tang Li Xue could already read Tian Jian''s intention from his stare, and she immediately raised the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp, then charged toward Tian Jian to stop him from attacking Little Loki and the male baby.
"It is only a futile effort. You are still far from my match." Tian Jian shook his head and said to Tang Li Xue.
"So what?! It is not like you will let me out from this crystal pce tomb even if I am not your match or lost to you, right?" Tang Li Xue replied with a tone filled with anger and resentment.
Tang Li Xue condensed [Paragon Sword Technique]''s sharpest sword intent and made it enveloped the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp once again to make it as sharp as a treasured sword.
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly jumped upward and shed the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp vertically toward Tian Jian''s head from above.
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, Tian Jian''s overall swordsmanship was much more skillful than her, who only learned all of her sword techniques about a week ago in the second trial.
CLAAAAAAAAANKKK~!!!
With one single heavy sweep of his treasured ck sword, Tian Jian managed to easily parry Tang Li Xue''s vertical sh to his head.
Tang Li Xue took a few steps back because of how powerful Tian Jian''s sweep was, and each of her steps even left a deep footprint on the tiled floor.
She gritted her teeth to resist the pain from his heavy wound that almost got healed thanks to her [Talisman of Regeneration +3], but it tore open again because of the violent impact of her fight against Tian Jian.
Tian Jian approached Tang Li Xue and swung his treasured ck sword rapidly toward her.
But Tang Li Xue quickly held her [Scepter of Disaster] with both of her hands and put all of her concentration on trying to block all of Tian Jian''s rapid strikes.
CLANK... CLANK... CLANK... CLANK... CLANK...
Each of Tian Jian''s strikes was as heavy as a cannon shot.
Even both of Tang Li Xue''s palms started to bleed profusely, and her heavy wounds got worsened when she was only blocking the rapid strikes from Tian Jian.
Tian Jian kept retreating again and again as she blocked Tian Jian''s rapid strikes and fresh blood started to flow out from the heavy wound on her chest.
After Tang Li Xue blocked all of Tian Jian''s rapid strikes, she tried to stab at Tian Jian again with the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp.
However, Tian Jian could easily parry or avoid all of Tang Li Xue''s attacks, and he could even counterattack Tang Li Xue easily every time.
After traded strikes several times, Tang Li Xue only fell more and more to disadvantage since Tian Jian''s swordsmanship was much more superior to her, even Tian Jian''s strength and speed were also much more superior to her.
In short, Tang Li Xue would never be able to win against Tian Jian unless a miracle happens soon before Tang Li Xue got killed by Tian Jian.
Meanwhile, Little Loki frowned even deeper in worry when it saw Tang Li Xue fell into a more disadvantaged situation.
From Tang Li Xue''s heavy wound and profuse bleeding, Little Loki immediately knew that it must help Tang Li Xue soon or Tang Li Xue would certainly lose her lifeter.
Little Loki finally wanted to make its move to help Tang Li Xue, but before that, Little Loki took a nce at the cute-looking male baby with an eye filled with suspicion again.
The cute-looking male baby looked very innocent and oblivious to everything, and that male baby was currently dozing in sleepiness while sucking his little thumb.
The scenes where Tian Jian tried to kill the male baby several times despite Tian Jian himself could defeat Tang Li Xue quickly shed in Little Loki''s mind.
After pondering for a few moments in hesitation, Little Loki finally decided to do something to the male baby first before it would help Tang Li Xue to fight against Tian Jian.
CLAAAAANGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue held her [Scepter of Disaster] nted in front of her, and she managed to block another heavy sh from Tian Jian.
But she was thrown off backward again until she crashed heavily onto the wall behind her.
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s slender body was even stuck quite deep on the wall.
Tang Li Xue spurted out several mouthfuls of blood, and she groaned in pain as her heavy wound got a lot worsened.
Tian Jian already charged swiftly toward Tang Li Xue again.
It seems Tian Jian wanted to deal Tang Li Xue a finishing blow to take her life without any shred of mercy.
[Heaven Sword Technique], Rainbow Cutter!
The treasured ck sword in Tian Jian''s grasp suddenly vanished for the second time, along with both of his hands that held his treasured ck sword.
Chapter 448: Late Awakening?!
Chapter 448: Late Awakening?!
Tang Li Xue still felt dizzy, and even her sight became blurry while her body also felt weaker than before.
However, Tang Li Xue could still sense Tian Jian''s terrifying murderous intenting toward her, so she immediately gritted her teeth and bit the tip of her tongue to make her consciousness clearer.
She quickly jumped out from the crack on the wall, but Tian Jian greeted her with the first sh of his [Rainbow Cutter] in that instant.
"Damn it! Since I cannot win against you, then I will just drag you down together with me!" Tang Li Xue angrily shouted at Tian Jian.
Tang Li Xue condensed [Paragon Sword Technique]''s sharpest sword intent and enveloped it onto the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp for the third time.
Then she used all of her remaining Qi in one go to execute herst trump card that she could use right now.
[Paragon Sword Technique], Perpetual sh!
Tang Li Xue also added one more sword technique on top of that¡ [Chivalrous Sword Art], Trading Blow!
This [Trading Blow] was the sword move to deal 200% damage to the enemy while received about 70% damage from the enemy.
While [Perpetual sh] was one of Tang Li Xue''s fiercest trump cards, the sword move that will continue to sh the target until it shredded the target to pieces or until the energy used to execute it waspletely depleted.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue herself knew that both of these [Trading Blow] and [Perpetual sh] were still far from enough to defeat the powerful Tian Jian.
That was the reason why she never staked her life and spent all of her remaining Qi in one go by using both [Trading Blow] and [Perpetual sh] until now.
But Tang Li Xue had no other choice right now and was forced to use both of them since she would certainly die if she did not retaliate with her all-out effort, and Tian Jian would surely finish her life by using his [Rainbow Cutter]!
''If only I can enter [Perfect Assimtion] mode with Phoenix of Pride, and use my [Paragon me Sword] along with [Final Strike], [Trading Blow], and [Perpetual sh]... I might have more than sixty percent chance to break this Tian Jian''s defense and kill him in one all-out attack. But now... sigh...'' Tang Li Xue thought while sighed in resignation as she swung down the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp with all of her remaining strength.
BBWWOOOOOOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s all-out sh instantly drained all of the remaining Qi in her Dantian to create a violent swirl condensed from the countless invisible sharp sword intents that dancing around like a huge tempest of des.
PPUUUUFFF~!!!
Tang Li Xue spurted several mouthfuls of blood again from the rebound impact of her [Trading Blow], and her worsened heavy wound became much worse now because of it.
All of the Qi in her Dantian was already spentpletely, and without the support from her Qi to stop the bleeding, the bleeding from the heavy wound on her chest flew out much more profusely than before.
Not only Tang Li Xue became dizzy and almost lost consciousness, but her expression also became much paler than usual.
She did not have any more strength to even stand up and fell on her knees again.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] met head-on against the first sh of Tian Jian''s [Rainbow Cutter].
CLANG~!!!
However, the swirling shes from Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] kept rapidly shing at Tian Jian without any sign of stopping or weakening.
While Tian Jian also kept countering Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] with the continuation from his [Rainbow Cutter]''s shes.
Second sh, third sh, fourth sh, fifth sh...
CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!!
Each of Tian Jian''s shes has double the power and speed of the previous sh.
It was truly a terrifying sword technique.
Even Tang Li Xue could no longer see or sense the movement of Tian Jian''s ck treasured sword at all.
It also means Tang Li Xue would not be able to dodge or parry the shes after the fourth sh of Tian Jian''s [Rainbow Cutter] even if she was in her optimal state with her Beast Cultivation System and all of her divine abilities unsealed back to normal.
All energy and Qi that Tang Li Xue used to generate her [Perpetual sh] began to get depleted, and the violent rapid swirling shes became weaker and weaker.
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes in resignation, but her heart was still burning with the will to live.
She already lived her previous life under imaginable suffering because of her deadly illness.
She spent almost all of her life inside the hospital room because of her weak body, and she lived in fear every day since her weak heart could suddenly stop anytime.
But Tang Li Xue was living quite happily and freely in this Immortal World in this current life.
''Ahhhhh~!!! I really do not want to die... I want to continue living in this world... There are still so many things I want to do here...'' Tang Li Xue thought in grief and unwillingness.
All of the familiar faces that Tang Li Xue had met in this Immortal World started to sh one by one in her mind.
''If I really died here, what will happen to Little Lokiter...''
''I also want to see Yaya again and see how much she improve right now...''
''I already miss Instructor Lan and Bingbing very much... err... I think I forget someone... AH~! Silly Fox! All right, I also miss him a bit... I wonder what kind of hellish training both of them are doing right now...''
''I also wonder what is that flirty Elder Yang doing right now? I think he must be flirting with another woman right now. That flirty Elder Yang... Someday, I will surely uncover his true rotten nature. With his handsome face and flirty attitude, I am sure he already broke the heart of countless women after he yed with them until he was bored.''
''Fake Dragon... I am really curious why Fake Dragon could not remember me at all... Is it rted to the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in my Dantian? I should find out some clues about why the memories about me got erased from the Fake Dragon''s mind!''
''There is also Fox Hunting Festival... Sigh... That is one of the grandest events in Myriad Foxes Academy. I really want to participate in that Fox Hunting Festival at least once so badly and see what kind of event is that.''
''So many things for me to do... I should not die here before I finish all of them... I MUST NOT DIE HERE... I WILL NEVER DIE HERE~!!!'' Tang Li Xue shouted in her thought as she opened her eyes all of a sudden.
A mysterious golden light shed in the deepest of her right topaz blue eyes, while an abstruse white light shed in the deepest of her left topaz blue eyes.
When Tang Li Xue''s will of life was burning much more fiercely than ever, she suddenly felt the [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline that flowing in her vein also became scorching hot as if it was responding to her will.
Even the [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline in her body started to act strangely.
The [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline made Tang Li Xue''s body became scorching hot, the [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline made Tang Li Xue''s mind became a lot calmer and cool.
The long heavy wound at Tang Li Xue''s chest suddenly dried, then it was covered with the scab in an instant because of the effect from [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline.
The [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline also removed the weak feeling from Tang Li Xue''s body. She immediately felt energetic and even stronger than before.
Meanwhile, the [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline caused Tang Li Xue''s mind could think much faster than usual, and the scene she saw in front of her eyes became much slower than usual as if everything she saw was moving in slow motion.
Suddenly, Tang Li Xue felt that she could win against Tian Jian in her current strengthened condition... if she still has all of her Qi and stamina.
Well... Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue already spent all of her Qi and stamina right now. She could not even use any of her sword techniques anymore, so she still has no chance of winning against Tian Jian at all, even with her current strengthened condition.
However, something unexpected by everyone suddenly happened!
Just when Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] has gotten much weaker, and the energy to condense it almostpletely depleted, the cute-looking male baby suddenly appeared at the center of the tempest created from countless invisible sharp sword intents.
"What?! OH, NO~!!!" Tang Li Xue shouted in panic and anxiousness as she stretched her right hand as quickly as she could to save the male baby by pulling him out from her [Perpetual sh].
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not move fast enough, and the male baby was shredded to pieces by the countless invisible sharp sword intents.
But strangely, there was no blood spilled.
When countless sharp sword intents tore the male baby apart, the body of the cute-looking male baby was shattered to pieces as if he was made from crystal.
Tang Li Xue felt really dejected and sorrowful.
She only met the cute-looking male baby today, but she was already very fond of him and really wanted to adopt him as her little brother.
Tang Li Xue immediately knew the culprit who made the male baby got killed just now.
Tang Li Xue nced at Little Loki with a pair of topaz blue eyes that filled with confusion and disappointment as if she was currently asking Little Loki why it did something cruel like that.
She felt really upset and broken-hearted by what Little Loki had just done.
Chapter 449: A Loophole? Bugged Trial?
Chapter 449: A Loophole? Bugged Trial?
Tang Li Xue really wanted to run toward Little Loki and ask why it did such a despicable act right now, but she was alreadypletely exhausted all of her Qi and stamina.
Even with the astonishing effects of her two awakened bloodlines, [Pure Sun Dragon] and [Imperial Moon Fox], which currently dispelled all of her tiredness and the sluggish feeling from her exhausted body, they only allowed her to freely move all of her limbs and also greatly increased her physical strength.
But she still could not use any of her martial art techniques anymore since her Qi alreadypletely dried up.
Moreover, Tian Jian also already managed to disperse Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] with his [Rainbow Cutter] without even receiving any scratch at all.
If Tian Jian attacked Tang Li Xue with his [Rainbow Cutter] technique again right now, Tang Li Xue would certainly not be able to defend herself anymore and got killed by him in an instant.
It seems Tang Li Xue''s fate had already been decided... It was almost certain that she would get defeated and got in by Tian Jian soon.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and still refused to give up even after she has realized that she already has no chance of winning against Tian Jian.
However, something shocking unexpectedly happened right in front of her eyes!
Tian Jian''s body suddenly turned transparent bit by bit after the cute-looking baby had died!
It was as if Tian Jian''s body slowly faded away and turned invisible.
Tang Li Xue immediately increased her vignce to the maximum since she thought Tian Jian used another sword technique to turn himself invisible right now.
But when Tang Li Xue slowly stood up from her kneeling position and put her battle stance while raised her [ Scepter of Disaster] again to face Tian Jian''s next attack, she suddenly heard the archaic voice spoke in her mind.
"Sigh... Fated young one, you are really lucky. Your pet cat is very smart. It seems your pet is far from ordinary. I really wonder what kind of species is that three-eyed ck cat? Cat Sith? Feline Race? Forget it... Congrattion, Fated young one! You have passed my fourth trial, the Trial of Talent and Aptitude!"
''Eh, what? What did you say just now? EHHHHHHH... I... I HAVE PASSED THE TRIAL?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in shock as she dropped her jaw and became dumbfounded in an instant.
"Your situation is really unique and has never happened before, so it identally created a loophole in the fourth trial''s rule for you to exploit. The rule to pass this fourth trial is to defeat only ''one'' model build by the crystal orb, but there are ''two'' models created by the crystal orb this time." Tian Jian patiently exined to Tang Li Xue.
"This is also the reason why I kept targeting that baby before. If I am the one that managed to kill that baby before, your only way to get past this fourth trial is by defeating me." Tian Jian shook his head in disappointment as his body kept fading away, and he almostpletely vanished.
"Sigh... Unfortunately, it seems my rash actions only made your cat pet became suspicious of that baby instead. So it decided to throw the baby onto your attack in the crucial moment when your situation is very desperate." Tian Jian ended his exnation, and his bodypletely disappeared now.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes turned bright in an instant after she heard Tian Jian''s exnation.
"Loophole? No, this is... a bug in the trial''s system! How could it be?! I cannot believe something like this can happen!" Tang Li Xue absentmindedly muttered in disbelief.
Nyaaaaa~!
Meanwhile, Little Loki already walked toward Tang Li Xue and rubbed its tiny furry head on Tang Li Xue''s feet with a pitiful wronged expression.
When Tang Li Xue saw Little Loki, a guilty feeling immediately assaulted her heart.
She felt guilty because she stared at Little Loki with an using re before, and her action must have hurt Little Loki''s feelings.
Tang Li Xue smiled gently at Little Loki as she quickly held Little Loki and embraced it tight on her warm chest while trying to appease it: " Little Loki, I am really sorry. You did that to save me, but I unreasonably used you of it instead. I promise I will give you many delicious snackster when we get back to make up for that. How about it?"
Nyaaw~!
Little Loki happily meowed as it was contently lying down its furry head on Tang Li Xue''s soft chest.
But Tang Li Xue also secretly felt that Little Loki''s previous action was too vicious.
It was still all right for now because the cute-looking male baby was only a model created by the crystal orb, but what if it was reced with a real living baby? Or even her close friend like Yaya, Bingbing, Silly Fox, or Instructor Lan?
Would Little Loki also sacrifice them if someday Tang Li Xue faced the same desperate situation as before?
Tang Li Xue shook her head to push away her worry, but she silently decided to educate Little Loki more in the future.
''Little Loki is still a newborn cub anyway. Even though it is very smart and quite vicious because of its extraordinary species as one of the four Evil Fiend Beasts, but Little Loki is still a cub. I can slowly educate it with love and affection. I will never believe that I cannot nurture it into a proper loving warm-hearted adultter!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she was filled with confidence.
Tang Li Xue still felt perplexed, so she decided to ask the archaic voice: "Let me ask a few questions since I still feel puzzled. This bug... Uhhh... I mean this loophole is quite ridiculous. Can you, as the owner''s will of this Crystal Pce Tomb, fix it? You can even remove that male baby to erase that loophole, right?"
"Sigh... If only it is really that easy. However, all of the trials in this tomb had already been decided by the living me before he died, and my job as hisst strand of will is to supervise for all Fated Young Ones when they undergo all the trials."
"I can only adjust the rules in any trial for a bit, just like when I created another model for you to face in this fourth trial. I do not have absolute authority to decide everything. If not, I can just disqualify you for cheating and kick you out from this tomb instead of creating another model for you to face."
The archaic voice answered Tang Li Xue''s question with a frustrated and helpless tone.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips curved upward in gloating after she heard the archaic voice''s answer.
''I get it! In short, thisst strand of will left behind by the owner of this Crystal Pce Tomb before he died can only work like an AI (Artificial Intelligent) to supervise all the trials and make sure that everything is working as it should be. But he cannot override the rules that had already been made by the real owner of this tomb!'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
"I see~! I see~! So, you do not have absolute authority over everything in this tomb! But your action seems like you are the real owner of this tomb~! You even use me of cheating without any proof! That really offends me as the trial taker! Sigh... Maybe I should just give up right now and spread the words that this Crystal Pce Tomb is only a big scam ce." Tang Li Xue blurted out with a mixed smug tone and mocking tone to vent all of her dissatisfaction since she was used of cheating by this AI... err... I mean this tomb owner''s will.
"¡.." The tomb owner''s will became speechless in that instant.
"Hehehehe... I wonder if anyone will dare to take the trial in this ce after I spread itter. All right, where is the exit gate? I want to give up on this scamming trial... ups, sorry... I mean this tomb''s trial." Tang Li Xueughed mischievously as she kept gently petting Little Loki in her embrace.
After Tang Li Xue had spoken all of her dissatisfaction, the blue gate and red gate suddenly appeared on the wall of the vast empty room.
Tang Li Xue really has decided to give up on thest trial since thest trial must be the most dangerous and the hardest trial among all of the trials.
She already almost got killed in this fourth trial, so her chance of passing the fifth trial was almost none.
Tian Jian was too powerful for her to face, and Tang Li Xue would certainly get killed for real if she must face another opponent as powerful as Tian Jian or might be even more powerful than him in thest trial.
"The blue gate to give up and the red gate to proceed onto thest trial, right?" Tang Li Xue asked to make sure the owner''s will did not y her and switch the color of the gate this time.
"That... is true... You can enter the blue gate if you decided to give up, or you can proceed to enter the red gate if you decided to take the fifth trial..." The archaic voice answered Tang Li Xue''s question again, but his tone was still filled with disbelief, shock, and bewilderment.
Tang Li Xue walked toward the blue gate, but when she almost push open the blue gate...
"WAIT~!!! Wait for a minute... Please..." The archaic voice called Tang Li Xue with an anxious tone.
Chapter 450: The Last Trial... Begin!
Chapter 450: The Last Trial... Begin!
Tang Li Xue halted her movement to push open the blue gate when she heard the archaic voice from the will of the tomb owner requested her to wait.
Tang Li Xue cunningly squinted her topaz blue eyes as she curved her pink lips upward a bit.
"Wait for a minute? Why? Do you want to say something to persuade me? Just so you know, I will never take any of your trials! It is okay if you want to give the inheritance for free to me right now. After all, I already passed four of your trials. But if you want me to take thatst trial, then I am sorry... I still cherish my life very much! No matter how good your inheritance is, my life is still the most important for me." Tang Li Xue dered to the tomb owner''s will.
''Humph~! I still have the OP system from Uncle Sun anyway. Who cares about yourme inheritance?! Well, I still want it a bit... But I believe that I will certainly surpass your Immortal Rank and reach Deity Rank sooner orter with my OP system. At that time, I swear I will turn your Crystal Pce Tomb upside down!'' Tang Li Xue added in her mind.
The tomb owner''s will fell silent for a few moments as if he was considering something.
After a few moments, the will of the tomb owner replied to Tang Li Xue: "I cannot give you the inheritance if you do not pass thest trial yet. That is something beyond what my authority can do."
"All right, so there is nothing more we can discuss. Goodbye!" Tang Li Xue angrily shouted as she tried to push open the blue gate again.
"Wait! But I can promise to you that thest trial is not dangerous at all!" The Tomb Owner''s Will quickly blurted to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue halted her movement again and turned around, then asked with a skeptical tone: "Not dangerous at all? Really?"
"Yes, thest trial is not life-threatening since it is the trial to test... yourprehension." The Tomb Owner''s Will told Tang Li Xue about thest trial, but his tone was filled with reluctance.
It seems the Tomb Owner''s Will actually did not want to leak it to Tang Li Xue that thest trial did not have any danger at all.
Tang Li Xue frowned a bit since she still felt doubtful at the words from the Tomb Owner''s Will.
''I still wonder why do you decide to tell me about this? From your previous trials and actions, you seem to make it difficult for me, and I even almost lost my life several times. It is as if you do not want me... or maybe even anyone to take your inheritance." Tang Li Xue tried to probe the Tomb Owner''s Will.
Tang Li Xue really did not want to die yet, so she must take every step carefully!
Moreover, she was currently not talking to the ordinary person right now, but the strand of will from the Immortal Ranked Cultivator.
The Immortal Ranked Cultivator already lived for many centuries or even several millenniums, so he clearly has much more experience and knowledge than Tang Li Xue. He was surely much smarter than her too.
However, Tang Li Xue already read too many novels where the ancient cultivator''s soul only used their inheritance to bait many cultivators, but that ancient cultivator''s soul was actually plotting to take over the body of the strongest living cultivator.
So, she was really careful about taking her next decision right now.
"Make it difficult for you?! I do not want anyone to take the inheritance?! I understand... so, the level of all the trials is too hard for you. Sigh..." The Tomb Owner''s Will sounded shocked, and he sighed in disappointment.
Before Tang Li Xue has any chance to say anything, the Tomb Owner''s Will added again with a depressed tone: "As I already expected, the level of cultivators in this backward continent is too low. The trial''s difficulty set by my living self is not high. It is actually still below average at best when it is put on the Central Continent."
"Sigh... Such a huge disappointment, since my inheritance can even make any other Immortal Ranked Cultivators go crazy with greed if it is put on the Central Continent." The Tomb Owner''s Will muttered softly.
Tang Li Xue''s soft supple ears twitched a little bit when she heard thest sentence from Tomb Owner''s Will.
"Eh, what? What did you say just now? Your inheritance can even make any other Immortal Ranked Cultivators go crazy with greed?!" Tang Li Xue asked with a tone filled with curiosity as her topaz blue eyes were glittering brightly like a pair of blue stars.
"But wait a minute... There is something strange here... if your inheritance is that great, then why don''t you just put your inheritance at Central Continent? I bet there are much better geniuses there to inherit your inheritancepared to this Lightwind Continent. I am quite sure they can pass all of your dangerous trials easily." Tang Li Xue felt there was something strange from the words of Tomb Owner''s Will, so she decided to ask frankly.
"You are right. There are too many geniuses in Central Continent. Because of the extremely thick spiritual energy, many heavenly physiques are born there, such as Crimson Sun Physique, Frigid Ice Physique, Sword Emperor Physique, and so on. The potential from each of them is simply not something you can even imagine. My living self also has one heavenly physique called Heavenly Sword Physique, and it became my Immortal title in the end." Tomb Owner''s Will agreed on what Tang Li Xue had said and even exined it further.
"I get it, then why did you put..." Tang Li Xue impatiently tried to ask again, but Tomb Owner''s Will immediately cut her words halfway.
"No, you still do not get it. My living self actuallyes from Central Continent, so I have many Immortal Ranked enemies there. But I am sorry since I cannot tell you more than this unless if you managed to pass the fifth trial and get the inheritance." After telling Tang Li Xue all of those, Tomb Owner''s Will fell silent once more as if he was waiting for Tang Li Xue to make up her decision.
While Tang Li Xue digesting the information given by the Tomb Owner''s Will, Tang Li Xue took several [Umon] Grade Beast Cores from her space pouch and slowly feed them to Little Loki in her embrace.
''I see... The inheritance from this Heavenly Sword Immortal is so great that it can attract the greed from Immortal Ranked Cultivators, and this Heavenly Sword Immortal seems to have many enemies at Central Continent.'' Tang Li Xue deeply thought.
From those two clues, Tang Li Xue could conclude that Heavenly Sword Immortal managed to have a great fortuitous encounter and got something that could even attract the greed of many Immortal Ranked Cultivators!
It seems the great fortuitous encounter was too terrific that even the Heavenly Sword Immortal could only escape from Central Continent to avoid the chase from many other Immortal Ranked Cultivators and ran to this backward Lightwind Continent to hide.
''The inheritance of this Heavenly Sword Immortal is getting more and more interesting~! I am really curious about what kind of item can attract the greed of so many Immortal Ranked Cultivators.'' Tang Li Xue beautifully smiled like a blooming white lotus when she thought about the inheritance.
After so many considerations, Tang Li Xue finally decided to take the fifth and thest trial.
Of course, she did not immediately undergo thest trial since her Qi and stamina were stillpletely exhausted. Even her body was also riddled with so many injuries, and some of them were fatal enough to make any normal human lost their life.
Tang Li Xue took out a bed from her space pouch and put the sleepy Little Loki on the bed.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue herself used several [Talisman of Regeneration +3] to slowly recover her wounds.
After one or two hours, all of her wounds already closed, and she almostpletely recovered, but unfortunately, it will take a much longer time to recover her Qi and stamina since she did not have any items like [Talisman of Regeneration +3] to recover her Qi and stamina quickly.
Tang Li Xue sat on the lotus position on the bed and began to slowly recover her Qi and stamina.
.....
...
.
It took a longer time than the previous trial for Tang Li Xue to go back to her optimal condition... about two or three days longer.
"Let''s go, Little Loki!" Tang Li Xue said while smiled gently at Little Loki.
Nyaaaaaw~!
Little Loki jumped onto Tang Li Xue, and Tang Li Xue quickly caught it.
She hugged and teased Little Loki for a few moments before she put Litte Loki on her right shoulder, then walked toward the red gate.
"The trial of Comprehension, huh... I wonder what kind of trial is that." Tang Li Xue giggled while she pushed open the red gate.
After Tang Li Xue and Little Loki passed the red gate and stepped into the next trial''s ce, the red gate was disappeared in that instant like usual, and Tang Li Xue could no longer retreat from thisst trial anymore unless shepleted it.
Tang Li Xue thought that she would arrive in another room again, but she waspletely wrong this time.
She had actually arrived at the long and dark cave instead!
"This is...?! Why the hell I am in this dark cave?! What should Iprehend in this kind of ce?! Damn it! I have a bad feeling about this!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she frowned deeper.
Chapter 451: [Heavenly Sword Immortals Manual]!
Chapter 451: [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual]!
Tang Li Xue took out a mid-tier spirit stone from her space pouch and used it to illuminate her way since all mid-tier spirit stones were emitting a faint light.
The light from the mid-tier spirit stone was too dim, so it was far from enough from illuminating the way in front of Tang Li Xue like a shlight, but she could still see everything clearly with her fox eyes.
There were countless ancient-looking murals carved on the entire cave''s right and left walls, ceiling, and even the floor.
Tang Li Xue explored the dark cave for a few hours, but she still failed to find any clues on how toplete thisst trial.
Tang Li Xue only kept walking forward from the beginning until now in this few hours, but she still could not see the end of the cave.
"This cave is really strange... Why does it seem that I only walk in the circle all this time?" Tang Li Xue murmured and frowned deeply while pondering her next moves for a while.
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to take out many low-tier spirit stones from her space pouch and dropped them one by one on her way while kept walking forward like before.
In about an hour or so, Tang Li Xue''s expression turned dark and gloomy when she saw low-tier spirit stones that she already dropped on the ground before.
"Damn it! So, my guess is right. We are only walking in the circle all this time!" Tang Li Xue cursed while gnashed her teeth in anger since she already wasted several hours of her time walking in the circle in this dark cave.
Tang Li Xue really was really having a great headache right now... because this dark cave only has one way! She could only walk forward or turned around and walk back to the path he had already walked before.
Nya~ Nyaaan~ Nyaaaaaw~!
Just when Tang Li Xue felt gloomy and confused about what she needs to do in this dark cave toplete thest trial, Little Loki, who still sat leisurely on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder, suddenly meowed while pointing its small furry paw onto the cave''s wall.
"What is it, Little Loki? Is there something strange there? Let''s take a look together then." Tang Li Xue asked as she erased her gloomy expression and reced it with a gentle smile on her extremely beautiful face.
Tang Li Xue took Little Loki from her shoulder and hugged it while gently patting its tiny furry head as she approached the cave''s wall that Little Loki pointed before.
"What is wrong with this wall? Is there a secret path behind it? Or maybe a strange item like the crystal orb in the previous trial is hidden behind it?" Tang Li Xue raised Little Loki and asked to it again with a tone filled with curiosity.
"Nya~ Nya~" Little Loki meowed while profusely shook its furry little head to deny all Tang Li Xue''s questions.
Tang Li Xue frowned in confusion, then she put her slender finger on her chin and muttered while thinking deeply: "Are you trying to tell me that these ancient murals might be our way toplete thisst trial?"
"Nyaaaaaw~!" Little Loki finally nodded its tiny furry head signaled that it thought so.
Tang Li Xue stared at the ancient murals carved on the cave''s wall with a serious expression for ten minutes or so before nodded her head and blurted out: "All right..... I have absolutely no idea what these pictures mean."
Little Loki almost slipped out from Tang Li Xue''s embrace and fell when it heard Tang Li Xue''s word.
It rolled its third eye in scorn while thinking: ''Then why do you keep staring at those murals for so long if you cannot even understand any of it?!''
Tang Li Xue coughed with an embarrassed expression when she felt Little Loki''s scorning gaze, so she tried to state her deduction to Little Loki to make up for it: "Cough... I think these ancient murals are not that simple to read or understand. It should be written with some kind of code to confuse us, and we must carefully decode it to clear thisst trial."
Little Loki nodded its tiny furry head again, but Litte Loki also became more pessimistic at Tang Li Xue on clearing this fifth trial since Little Loki knew that Tang Li Xue''s brain was not that bright after sticking together with her all this time.
Tang Li Xue stretched her right hand to touch the ancient murals on the wall, but the archaic voice suddenly spoke to her again right after Tang Li Xue''s right palm was touching the ancient murals on the cave''s wall.
"Not bad... Your guess is correct. These ancient murals were personally encoded by my real self when he was alive and carved onto this spatial cave."
"The ancient murals here are actually recorded everything I managed toprehend in my life before I died, from all of my martial art techniques, all cultivation methods I knew, and even my cultivation''s experiences."
"Your task this time is to decode these ancient murals andprehend at least 30% of the overall content. Your time is only three days, so use it well... Sigh... forget it... I know you will never be able to decode andprehend them in three days... Since you are the first one to go this far, I will be more lenient and give you seven days toprehend them."
"If the seven days of your time are up, and you failed toprehend 30% of the overall content, you will only be kicked out from this tomb. I did not lie to you, right? No live threatening danger at all in thisst trial."
"But you do not need to feel disappointed if you failed to pass thisst trial. Although you will not get my inheritance, but I am pretty sure that the content of these ancient murals is more than enough to make up for all of your efforts."
The Tomb Owner''s Will ended his exnation, but Tang Li Xue twitched her pink lips in displeasure since she could detect a trace of mocking in his tone.
The Tomb Owner''s Will was clearly looking down at her, and he even bothered to say a few words tofort Tang Li Xue as if he was so sure that Tang Li Xue would certainly fail to pass thisst trial.
''Damn, this old man is clearly looking down on me, right? Did he really think that I am so stupid and surely cannotplete hismest trial?! Tsk! How dare he... Then I will show him how smart am I and make him gawking at my greatness!'' Tang Li Xue thought while fuming in anger at the Tomb Owner''s Will.
Tang Li Xue sneered coldly and said back to the Tomb Owner''s Will: "Three days? Seven days? Do you really think I need that long to decode these ancient murals! Comprehend only 30% of its content? Hehehe... You really think too highly of your records! With my superior intelligence, I only need thirty minutes toprehend ALL of the content!"
Even Little Loki in Tang Li Xue''s embrace dropped its jaw in shock and becamepletely dumbfounded for a few moments when it heard Tang Li Xue''s cocky deration.
"Young one, do not get too conceited. Do you know what you are talking about? You even need more than one hour to go around the cave, then how could youprehend all of the content in just half an hour?" The Tomb Owner''s Will surprisingly gave a logical reply instead of scolding Tang Li Xue.
Even Tang Li Xue herself became speechless for a few moments because of the reply from the Tomb Owner''s Will.
"Cough... Cough... You do not need to worry about it. I already memorize every ancient mural engraved on the ground, walls, and ceiling when I walked around the cave before. I only need to decode every ancient mural in my mind right now, so thirty minutes is more than enough to finish it." Tang Li Xue immediately said a random reason that she could think about to cover it.
"All right then... I will respect your wish. Starting now, you will only have thirty minutes to decode andprehend all of the ancient murals carved in this cave. If you failed to do it, I will kick you out from this tomb." The Tomb Owner''s Will easily yielded and changed the rule ording to Tang Li Xue''s conceited deration.
Tang Li Xue still felt really dissatisfied since her provocation failed to make the Tomb Owner''s Will angry.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not be blindly confident in her intelligence without any proper reason.
Even Tang Li Xue herself would never believe if she could really do that, but fortunately, she has an OP cheat.
[Do you want toprehend [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual] at the cost of 700 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
Tang Li Xue got this notification from her system the moment when she touched the ancient murals engraved on the wall.
When Tang Li Xue wanted to approve it, she suddenly felt unwilling and heartache since her total Deity Coins was only a bit more than 700.
Because if she spent 700 Deity Coins toprehend this [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual], she would not have any more Deity Coins toprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], and she surely needs much longer time to umte 1000 Deity Coins.
"But wait a minute... there is something strange here. There are so many things written in this cave, but it only cost 700 Deity Coin, but why I must spend 1000 Deity Coins to learn [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in confusion.
Chapter 452: What?! Accused of Cheating Again?!
Chapter 452: What?! used of Cheating Again?!
Ding!
[The reason is simple. The [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] is much more profound and harder toprehend than [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual].]
[Moreover, this [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual] already contains the detailed note from Heavenly Sword Immortal, including all of his experiences and insights, soprehending all of them will not need to take too much effort.]
[The price actually will be much lower if not for the sheer amount of contents of this [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual] that covers all of Heavenly Sword Immortal''s lifetime knowledge about martial arts and cultivation.]
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding after she heard the exnation from her system.
''All right then... Let''s begin now since we only have thirty minutes toprehend all of them!'' Tang Li Xue thought, but she started to hesitate for a few moments.
''Sigh... After I look at it again, there are so many of them. I wonder if my mind can withstand it... Oh, well... It is already toote to back out from this after going this far anyway. YES!'' Tang Li Xue steeled her will and approved to spend 700 of her Deity Coins toprehend all of the contents of the ancient murals.
BAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
All of the information from the ancient murals flooded Tang Li Xue''s mind in an instant like a great tsunami.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth to withstood the unbearable stinging pain that almost broke her mind.
It had been a while since she felt this kind of pain since her mind already strengthened a lot after she increased her Spirit stat to 1100.
Thest time she felt this level of pain was when she used her system toprehend [Four Mythical Guardian Beasts Art] in Asura Demon Sect before.
But at that time, she still did not have Spirit stat in her system''s stats yet, so she could not strengthen her mind like now.
The splitting headache made Tang Li Xue''s body covered with cold sweat.
She staggered and fell on her knees, then she pounded her fist onto the ground to vent out her pain.
BOOM~!!!
"GUUUUUUUUAAAAAAARRRRHHHH~!!!" Tang Li Xue held her head and shouted in pain.
Even Little Loki was caught off guard by Tang Li Xue''s exaggerated reaction and jumped out from Tang Li Xue''s embrace.
Little Loki did not know what happen to Tang Li Xue, and it started to be anxious and panicked since it did not know what to do to help Tang Li Xue.
Nyaaa~!
Little Loki jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder and licked Tang Li Xue''s right cheek as if it tried tofort Tang Li Xue and asked what happen to her.
However, Tang Li Xue was currently using all of her strength and mind to withstand the unbearable pain, so she did not have time to pay attention to the worried Little Loki.
Thankfully, the unbearable stinging pain onlysted for a few minutes before it subsided bit by bit, which mean that theprehension process was finally over.
All of the knowledge contained in all ancient murals in this cave already entered Tang Li Xue''s mind, but it might take quite a long time for her to process everything.
At least she already got all of the knowledge, and she could pass thisst trial easily.
Of course, executing or learning all of the martial arts or cultivation techniques from those ancient murals was a different matter altogether.
Fortunately, there was no requirement for her to execute any martial arts or cultivation techniques from those ancient murals or she might fail thisst trial since the martial arts or cultivation techniques from those ancient murals were on a different level than the previous four sword techniques at the second trial.
"Cough¡ Cough¡ Cough¡ Damn it! That was truly intense¡ Huff¡ Huff¡ That kind of pain¡ I really do not want to feel it anymore¡ Huuuffff¡" Tang Li Xue murmured while panting in exhaustion.
The cold sweat on her face kept dripping onto the floor as she supported her body with her hands in a kneeling position.
In fact, she really wanted to lie down on the ground for a few minutes to take a rest, but she did not want to make Little Loki more worry, so she decided to sit on the ground instead and embraced Little Loki again.
Little Loki kept staring at Tang Li Xue''s face with a worried expression.
Tang Li Xue smiled gently at Little Loki and patting its tiny furry head, then said: "What''s wrong, Little Loki? Are you worried about me? Hehe... You do not need to worry. I am alright. I only use some secret methods toprehend all of these ancient murals. It was a bit painful, but the pain has vanished now."
Tang Li Xue already spent about ten to fifteen minutes, so she decided to do a quick review of all of the content of ancient murals in her mind in her remaining time.
After another fifteen minutes had passed, the archaic voice suddenly whispered into Tang Li Xue''s mind again: "All right, it is already thirty minutes. Your time is already up. Are you sure you alreadyprehend everything in these thirty minutes? I can still extend your time to one week if you regret it and beg to me now."
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched violently in anger when she heard the Tomb Owner''s Will asked her to ''beg'' him.
"Hehehe... Easy peasy~! I already memorize andprehend all of them! These things are not even a challenge for me. If not for the sheer amount of contents of these... ancient murals, I can evenprehend all of them in less than one minute!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a mocking tone.
It was as if she was trying to say: ''All of these are your entire life experiences and insights in cultivation and martial arts?! Are you stupid or something?! Look, I canprehend all of them in only thirty minutes!''
The Tomb Owner''s Will still felt skeptical at Tang Li Xue, so he replied: "Okay... then I will test how far youprehend the content of these ancient murals right now. I will ask you some random questions from the content of the ancient murals, and you only need to answer them."
After that, the Tomb Owner''s Will asked ten questions to Tang Li Xue, and all of his questions were really taken randomly from some parts of the ancient murals.
Even though Tang Li Xue had not processed almost all of the knowledge she just got from ancient murals, but Tang Li Xue could still answer all of the Tomb Owner''s questions really easily.
It was like a teacher gave an oral quiz to a student, but the student actually already memorized all the answers beforehand.
The Tomb Owner''s Will became speechless for a few minutes in astonishment, then he started to ask Tang Li Xue another ten questions, but his questions were much harder to answer and more profound than the previous questions.
Fortunately, his questions were still from the content of ancient murals, so Tang Li Xue could still answer all of them easily.
The Tomb Owner''s Will muttered with a dispirited tone as if he began to question the meaning of his life: "Sigh..... You... have... passed thest trial..."
Tang Li Xue smiled triumphantly as she grasped his fist tightly and made a victory pose while Little Loki still sat on her right shoulder.
"All right! Since I already pass all of the arduous trials with so much difficulty, it is time for me to im my reward. Where is your inheritance?" Tang Li Xue said as she licked her pink lips and rubbed her palms impatiently.
"No, no, no... This is impossible! I still cannot believe it at all! You must be cheating!" The Tomb Owner''s Will shouted in Tang Li Xue''s mind with his archaic voice.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes in disdain and replied with an angry and chilling tone: "Old man, this is the second time you use me of cheating! Do not test my patience and bottom line, or I will make you will regret itter!"
"Cough... Cough... I am sorry... It is not my intent to do so... But this is just too unbelievable. Just one more test, okay? I will test yourprehension of these ancient murals one more time. I promise I will not doubt you anymore and lead you directly to the ce of inheritance after that. I just need to make sure for onest time. How about it?" The Tomb Owner''s Will sounded guilty, but he still asked Tang Li Xue with a begging tone.
Tang Li Xue felt angry and really unwilling to take another test, but she did not have any other choice.
''Okay, he said that he only wanted to test myprehension of the content of ancient murals... It should be easy for me, and it will not waste too much of my time since I alreadyprehend all the content of the ancient murals anyway.'' Tang Li Xue thought as she calmed down.
Chapter 453: Place of Inheritance!
Chapter 453: ce of Inheritance!
"All right, I agree. BUT this will be thest test, and you must give me the inheritance immediately after you test me!" Tang Li Xue replied to Tomb Owner''s Will.
"Yes, I promise I will lead you immediately to the ce of inheritance after you pass myst test. The test is also quite simple. You only need to put your palm onto the glowing mural on the wall." The Tomb Owner''s Will spoke directly into Tang Li Xue''s mind.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply since thest test''s method was actually out of her expectation.
She thought the Tomb Owner''s Will would only ask her a few more difficult questions about the content of ancient murals.
Suddenly, one of the ancient murals on the cave''s right wall started to shine with dim blue light.
"Put your palm onto the glowing mural on the right wall. All of the ancient murals that you alreadyprehend will start to shine tooter." The Tomb Owner''s Will exined to Tang Li Xue with usual his archaic voice.
Tang Li Xue walked to approach the glowing mural on the right wall and tried to examine it for a few moments.
She hesitated for a while but still gritted her teeth to steel her resolve and stretched her right palm to touch the glowing mural.
WEEEEEEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
A sonorous sound echoed in the dark cave the moment when Tang Li Xue''s right palm touched the glowing mural on the right wall.
Tang Li Xue almost pulled her right hand in reflex when she heard the sound, but the Tomb Owner''s Will quickly spoke into Tang Li Xue''s mind to warn her: "Do not move! Do not remove your hand from that glowing mural, or the test will fail!"
Tang Li Xue decided not to move her right hand after she heard the warning from Tomb Owner''s Will, and she took a deep breath to calm down herself.
Meanwhile, the surrounding ancient murals started to lit up too with dim blue light one by one.
5... 10... 20... 30... 50... 70... 100... 120... 150... 180... 200...
In only a few minutes, all of the ancient murals around Tang Li Xue already glowing like fireflies, but it was still not over yet!
The glowing ancient murals began to spreading to another side of the dark cave.
300... 500... 800... 1000... 1500... 2000... 3000... 4000... 5000... 7000... 9000...
After more than fifteen minutes, all of the ancient murals engraved on the dark cave''s right and left wall, ceiling, and floor already shone with dim blue light.
Tang Li Xue did not really understand what happened right now, so she asked with a doubtful tone: "Err... All ancient murals are glowing, so it means I managed to pass the test, right?"
However, the Tomb Owner''s Will was too dumbfounded to answer Tang Li Xue''s question right now.
Only after Tang Li Xue called for him many times that he replied to Tang Li Xue with a lethargic and heavy tone: "Yes... you... passed..."
Tang Li Xue''s bright smile bloomed beautifully after she heard the confirmation from Tomb Owner''s Will.
"Great! Now, where is my inheritance?! You better take me quickly to there. I am very busy you know! I already spend half of my remaining time to stay in Inheritance Ground Tablet in your tomb!" Tang Li Xue impatiently said to the Tomb Owner''s Will with a cheeky tone.
The Tomb Owner''s Will sighed with mixed feelings of resignation and admiration at Tang Li Xue''sprehension that was beyondmon sense.
WEEEEEEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
The high-pitched sound reverberated again in the dark cave as everything around Tang Li Xue started to copse.
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes again, she suddenly found herself in the middle of the corridor, and there was a pair of giant majestic golden gates that stood right in front of her.
"These golden gates... The ce of inheritance should be behind these golden gates, right?" Tang Li Xue murmured in hesitation, but her topaz blue eyes immediately shone brightly as she impatiently pushed open the majestic golden gates and entered the room behind them.
Tang Li Xue already imagined a vast room filled with rich heavenly resources such as several mountains of spirit stones, hundreds or even thousands of precious heavenly herbs, and hundreds of shelves filled with extraordinary pills in bottles...
Not to mention the rare heavenly artifacts or treasures such as armors, swords, amulets, and so on...
Tang Li Xue''s drool almost flowed out from her mouth just by imagining them.
Unfortunately, the room behind the majestic golden gates was not like what Tang Li Xue had imagined in her mind.
There was a huge room behind the majestic golden gates, but instead of heavenly herbs or treasures, this huge room was filled with countless swords that stabbed onto the ground.
"Is this... the inheritance room? But... but... why are there only swords here?! Where are the treasures?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise mixed with anger.
"Treasures? Do you mean the inheritance? All of the swords here are the inheritance itself. Each of these swords represents different inheritance. You only need carefully choose one of the swords here, and you will receive the inheritance behind itter." The Tomb Owner''s Will exined to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips were twitching in annoyance. She felt like she just got scammed by this Tomb Owner''s Will.
"Are you kidding me?! I thought I would get everything in this Crystal Pce Tomb since I already passed all the trials with so much difficulty!" Tang Li Xue blurted out to ask the Tomb Owner''s Will.
"Fated young one, aren''t you too greedy?! I admit that you are really a rare genius, but it is still too risky to put all of the hope to one inheritor after all. Moreover, you alreadyprehend all of the martial art techniques, my lifetime experience, and insights. All of those are the most important inheritance here." The Tomb Owner''s Will replied to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply while nodded her head in understanding.
In short, this crystal tomb''s owner divided his inheritance into many parts, so he could have many inheritors.
The reason why these old cultivators put their inheritance here was that because they did not want their martial arts or name to disappear forever in the river of time.
They wanted to find a rare genius as their inheritor, so that inheritor could use their martial arts and made it renowned through the entire Immortal World.
But there was also the risk that rare geniuses would die before they became strong enough and became famous...
So, Tang Li Xue understood why the crystal tomb''s owner split his inheritance into many parts to have more inheritors instead of just one.
Moreover, she was a genius from Fox Race and not from Human Race, so it was impossible for her to just shout out something like ''I am Tang Li Xue, the inheritor of Heavenly Sword Immortal!'' for everyone to know.
She would definitely hide it for a quite long time since no [Umon] grade beast could have human Qi or even use martial art techniques.
Only [Epic] Grade Beast or the True Spirit Beast Rank that already got their real human form could do it.
Since Tang Li Xue knew that she would only get a small part of Heavenly Sword Immortal''s inheritance, she did not want to waste any of her precious time here and quickly asked again: "All right, I understand. So, I just need to pick one of the swords here, right?"
Tang Li Xue calcted that she only has about half a month left to stay in this Inheritance Ground Tablet.
She just wanted to randomly pick one sword and go out of here quickly, so she could find another inheritance or fortuitous encounter in this Inheritance Ground Tablet, but the Tomb Owner''s Will added a few more words that managed to attract her interest again.
"Sigh... I will give you one crucial piece of information since you are a really rare genius that managed toprehend all of the content in thest trial." The Tomb Owner''s Will spoke again into Tang Li Xue''s mind.
"Oh? Important information?" Tang Li Xue blinked her topaz blue eyes and felt quite interested.
"I already told you that when I was alive, I was chased by many enemies and forced to flee from Central Continent, then ran to this remote Lightwind Continent. The reason for that is because I managed to obtain something incredibly precious. That incredibly precious item is included in the inheritance among one of these swords." The Tomb Owner''s Will suddenly revealed something shocking.
"An incredibly precious item?! What kind of item is that?! Don''t tell me that it is one of the Heavenly Treasure Rank?" Tang Li Xue quickly asked again with a tone filled with amazement.
"No, it is not a Heavenly Treasure Rank..." The Tomb Owner''s Will replied with a serious tone.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned gloomy, and she immediately lost all of her interest again.
"But it is something much more precious than any treasure in Heavenly Treasure Rank. If I did not quickly take it and escaped out from Central Continent, this item would certainly create a huge bloodbath among all of the Immortal powerhouses in the Central Continent. The consequence is simply unimaginable." The Tomb Owner''s Will added again with a proud tone as if he already did something good to save the Central Continent from a great cmity.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz eyes shone brightly in excitement like a pair of stars after she heard the words from Tomb Owner''s Will.
''Something much more precious than any treasure in Heavenly Treasure Rank?! Can create a huge bloodbath?! Don''t tell me... it is a Divine Treasure?! Oh... My... God... It should be a Divine Treasure, right?!'' Tang Li Xue thought as her heart was beating faster and faster.

Chapter 454: So Many Legendary Swords!
"Okay, that is all information that I can give to you. As for how you can pick the correct sword to get that inheritance,? I cannot help you with it. It is all entirely dependent on your luck. Remember, you can only pick one sword, so choose carefully.? Go, Young Fated One! I can only pray for you to have good luck." The Tomb Owner''s Will encouraged Tang Li Xue and went silent again.
"Ehhhh~! At least give me a few clues about the correct sword for that inheritance! Something like the pattern on the sword, the sword''s color, and so on. Please~! Heeeiii~!" Tang Li Xue tried to call the Tomb Owner''s Will with a coquettish tone that could melt the heart of any male.
Unfortunately, the Tomb Owner''s Will was only a strand of will from thete real tomb owner, so he certainly could not be seduced.
It seems the Tomb Owner''s Will did not want to bother Tang Li Xue when she was choosing the sword, so he did not reply to Tang Li Xue anymore no matter how loud Tang Li Xue called him.
Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction.
Since she had no choice other than to pick the sword randomly, she decided to take her time and began to walk around the vast room while examining the sword one by one.
This vast room was several timesrger than a baseball stadium, so there were probably several hundred or might even more than one thousand swords here.
Moreover, each sword was different from another.
No sword looked identical to the other sword.
Tang Li Xue was surprised after she examined a few swords around her.
She realized that all of the swords here were actually not simple at all.
Most of them could even bepared with the treasures in Heavenly Treasure Rank if only the power to kill the enemies that count.
When Tang Li Xue approached a blood-colored sword with a ck hilt, it let out an oppressing aura that even made Tang Li Xue felt dreadful and ufortable.
Even the blood inside Tang Li Xue''s body started to churning, and she almost coughed out a mouthful of blood.
Tang Li Xue immediately decided to stay away from that sword and walked in another direction.
After that, Tang Li Xue met many other bizarre and terrifying swords, and each one of them was so extraordinary that Tang Li Xue made Tang Li Xue tempted to pick any of them¡
There was a golden sword that radiating the majestic aura. When Tang Li Xue first saw it, she suddenly had an urge to kneel as if she met with an absolute king.
Tang Li Xue shook her head to reject the urge to kneel and continue to walk.
There was also a purple-edged sword that emitting the intense demonic aura. When Tang Li Xue tried to approach it and the purple light from the sword reflected in her topaz blue eyes, she suddenly felt a strong impulse to ughter every living thing she ever knew or saw.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue''s spirit stat was already quite high, so she could still barely resist the effect of demonic aura from the purple-edged sword and quickly kept her distance from it.
There was even a gigantic ancient-looking sword that several tens of meters tall at the center of the vast room. The gigantic ancient-looking sword was shrouded with several thick chains.
Tang Li Xue did not felt anything special from this gigantic ancient sword after she examined and touched it for about ten minutes, so she decided to just ignore it since she could not wield it anyway even if she decided to take it.
After walking around the room for more than one hour, Tang Li Xue identally saw an old rusted sword at the right corner of the vast room.
The color of this sword was ck, and it was already full of rust, but strangely, it gave Tang Li Xue a sense of familiarity when she saw it.
The tip was already broken. Even this sword''s edge was already dull and jagged as if it already used to fight in countless battles before.
There was nothing worth noticing from this broken sword, and it looked like a piece of junk that no one would want.
In fact, Tang Li Xue would not even waste her time taking a nce at it if she did not feel a sense of familiarity from this ck rusted sword.
"This sword... seems a bit familiar to me... Hmm... I wonder where I saw it before." Tang Li Xue murmured as she tapped her slender finger onto her chin and started to ponder.
After a few moments, Tang Li Xue could not recall anything about this ck rusted sword, so she decided to just ignore it and began to look at another sword, but before she could do that...
Nyaaaaaaaww~!
Little Loki suddenly meowed while tapped its tiny soft paw onto Tang Li Xue''s shoulder.
"Eh? Little Loki? What''s wrong? Do you want to take a pee or poop? Uhhh... But there is no restroom here..." Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki as she took Little Loki from her shoulder and hugged it while gently patted its tiny furry head.
"Nyan... Nyaan~!" Little Loki shook its tiny furry head to deny it.
It seems that was not what Little Loki was trying to tell Tang Li Xue.
Little Loki pointed its little paw to the rusted ck sword, and then it used both of its little paws to pull down both of its furry cheeks to imitate a cold-looking expression.
Tang Li Xue still felt confused about what Little Loki was trying to tell her for a few moments, but her topaz blue eyes shone brighter all of a sudden.
"AH~!!! I get it now~! That cold expression is... Tian Jian''s expression! That is right! This rusted ck sword is actually Tian Jian''s ck treasured sword!" Tang Li Xue shouted in surprise, and she immediately inspected the rusted ck sword more closely to confirm her guess.
It was not strange that Tang Li Xue almost could not remember this rusted ck sword since the ck treasured sword used by Tian Jian in the previous fourth trial looked so sharp and precious as if it was made from the highest quality ck jade while this current rusted ck sword looked so... pathetic beyond belief.
"But why was a sword that was already covered in rust and broken like this still ced here where all of the important inheritances were gathered? Hmmm... Something smells fishy here..." Tang Li Xue muttered softly while biting her pink lips and pondering deeply.
"ording to the Tian Jian''s model I faced in the fourth trial, this rusted ck sword should be the sword used by Heavenly Sword Immortal when he is still young. So, he should still have held some attachment to this rusted ck sword in thest moment of his life." Tang Li Xue started to unconsciously murmur her deduction.
"In short, I think there is some small chance that he might hide his most precious inheritance behind this rusted ck sword... Tsk, so now... Should I choose to gamble everything and pick this rusted ck sword, or should I just pick any other random powerful sword?" Tang Li Xue concluded while frowned in hesitation as she kept staring at the rusted ck sword as if she wanted to find anything strange at it.
It could be said if Tang Li Xue chose to pick this rusted ck sword, and it turned out that this rusted ck sword was nothing more than a piece of rusted junk, then it means Tang Li Xue had wasted so much of her time and effort to pass the five trials for nothing.
Of course, she could also choose any other random powerful sword.
There were so many powerful treasured swords here after all.
From Golden Emperor Sword, Silver Saint Sword, Demonic Purple Sword, Gravity Stone Sword, and many more... All of them were so precious, and any one of them was more than enough to make any cultivators go crazy with greed.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue still did not felt interested in sword art even until this point after she learned some sword martial art techniques... So, she decided to take a gamble by picking the rusted ck sword in the end.
She thought she probably might rarely use them again after she got out from this Inheritance Ground Tablet and got back all of her divine abilities and skills...
Moreover, she must get much stronger quickly to participate in Fox Hunting Festival, and she certainly could not use any of her martial arts in Fox Hunting Festivalter.
"All right, I choose this sword!" Tang Li Xue shouted out loud as she grasped the hilt of the rusted ck sword tightly and pulled it out from the ground.
But when she did that, the rusted ck sword in her grasp started to be filled with cracks as if it would shatter at any moment.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched violently in regret. She began to doubt if her choice was really correct or not.
"That rusted sword? Are you really sure that you will choose that sword?" The Tomb Owner''s Will asked Tang Li Xue with a tone filled with surprise and disbelief.
"I....." Tang Li Xue paused her words, and she really hesitated right now.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and gritted her teeth while steeled her resolve, then continued: "Yes, I will choose this sword!"
CRACK... CRACK... CRACK... CRACK... CRACK...
After Tang Li Xue shouted out her choice, the rusted ck sword in her grasp started to crumble apart bit by bit.
Chapter 455: Heavenly Sword Immortals Most Precious Inheritance!
Chapter 455: Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Most Precious Inheritance!
Tang Li Xue''s heart sank when she saw the rusted ck swordpletely shattered apart into tiny pieces and fell to the ground after a few whiles.
Even the hilt of the rusted ck sword in her grasp was also crumbled to pieces leaving nothing behind.
"How could this sword... Sigh... it seems my deduction is wrong. Damn it! Does it mean all of my effort to pass the five trials turns out futile?! Haiiisss... So, I waste so much of my time in this tomb to get nothing?!" Tang Li Xue cursed between her pearl white teeth while gnashed her teeth in anger and unwillingness.
But she quickly took a deep breath to calm down after a few moments while tried to console herself: "Sigh... Forget it... At least, I still managed toprehend four sword martial art techniques in the second trial plus [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual] in that dark cave. I also managed to get the source of Purple Ghost me in the third trial that made Phoenix of Pride evolve to be more powerful."
Just when Tang Li Xue wanted to ask the Tomb Owner''s Will to send her out from here...
"Nyaaaaan~! Nyaaaww~!"
Little Loki that currently sat on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder, suddenly meowed while tapped its tiny soft paw onto Tang Li Xue''s shoulder again to call her.
"Hm? What is wrong, Little Loki?" Tang Li Xue asked while grabbed Little Loki from her right shoulder and embraced it in her soft bosom.
"Meo~!"
However, Little Loki suddenly jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s embrace and approached the pile of tiny fragments from the shattered rusted sword.
Watching Little Loki''s action, Tang Li Xue also decided to crouch down and examined the pile of tiny fragments from the shattered rusted sword closer while asked Little Loki again but with a curious tone this time: "Little Loki? What are you looking for? Did you notice something interesting there? Eh? Wait a minute... What is that?"
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise when she saw a transparent tiny sword mixed among the pile of shattered fragments from the rusted ck sword.
The size of the transparent tiny sword was even smaller than Tang Li Xue''s pinky finger that the reason why she failed to notice it until now.
Tang Li Xue stretched her right hand to grab the transparent tiny sword since she wanted to examine it closer.
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue''s right hand failed to touch that transparent tiny sword and only passed right through it as if she was trying to touch an illusion.
"It actually cannot be touched?! This sword... is very strange! What kind of sword is this?" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock.
"Congrattions, Fated Young One! Sigh... I cannot believe you were not blinded by the temptation of these many powerful treasured swords and even dared to choose that rusted broken sword. Your wits, resolve, and boldness is highlymendable." The Tomb Owner''s Willmended Tang Li Xue in awe.
"To think you really had sessfully chosen the most important inheritance among all of these many inheritances... It seems you really have a high affinity and fate with it." The Tomb Owner''s Will said again with a tone filled with admiration and resignation.
"What?! This... tiny transparent sword is the inheritance you are talking about before?! The one that can create a huge bloodbath among all of the Immortal powerhouses in the Central Continent?! You must be kidding with me, right?" Tang Li Xue blurted out in disbelief.
"It will take too long to exin it, and I know you do not have much time left in Inheritance Ground Tablet. You will certainly know the reason why this inheritance is so precious soon anyway after you get it, so I will not waste any time exining it. Let''s start the imnt process now!" The Tomb Owner''s Will replied to Tang Li Xue.
SWOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
After the Tomb Owner''s Will finished his words, the transparent tiny sword suddenly shed toward Tang Li Xue''s face!
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki never expected that the transparent tiny sword would suddenly move so fast, so both of them did not have any time to react at all.
When they realized it, the transparent tiny sword already entered Tang Li Xue''s forehead and vanished from their view.
"AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHH~!!!" Tang Li Xue shouted out loud when the head-splitting pain assaulted her mind all of a sudden after the transparent tiny sword entered her forehead.
Tang Li Xue fell onto the ground with both of her hands holding her head, and she started rolling on the ground while kept screaming in pain.
Meanwhile, Little Loki felt lost and did not know what it must do to cure Tang Li Xue''s pain, so it could only bare its teeth to its surrounding in anger as if it tried to threaten the Tomb Owner''s Will to relieve Tang Li Xue''s pain.
GGGGRRRRRR~!!! Nyaaaaaww~!!!
"Do not worry, little friend. I only imnt the tiny transparent sword into her mind and integrate it into her sea of consciousness since that sword is the inheritance she had already chosen. Although the process is a bit painful, but I can guarantee the oue will satisfy both of you and her." The Tomb Owner''s Will exined to Little Loki.
Little Loki calmed down after it heard the exnation from the Tomb Owner''s Will, but it rolled its third eye when the Tomb Owner''s Will said ''a bit painful''.
Little Loki nced at Tang Li Xue that still kept shouting in pain while rolling on the ground with worry. Even her face and clothes were already soaked in her cold sweat.
''You said that this is only a bit painful?!'' Little Loki thought.
Luckily, Tang Li Xue''s head-splitting headache onlysted for about fifteen minutes or so before it dissipated bit by bit.
After the head-splitting painpletely subsided, Tang Li Xue''s appearance looked really disheveled. Even her face looked dirty since it was already covered with her own sweat, tear, and snot.
She could not even think anything for a few minutes after the head-splitting pain had subsided.
"Huff... Cough... Cough... Cough... What... the hell... Huff... Huff... Huff... are you doing to me?" Tang Li Xue asked with great difficulty while breathing heavily.
Tang Li Xue''s mind still felt extremely dizzy, but she still forced herself to ask the Tomb Owner''s Will since she did not hear what he had exined to Little Loki before.
The Tomb Owner''s Will did not bother to exin again to Tang Li Xue and only replied: "Try to check your sea of consciousness first."
"My sea... of consciousness?" Tang Li Xue murmured in confusion.
Tang Li Xue felt skeptical at the Tomb Owner''s Will, and she frowned deeply, but she still decided to close her eyes and check her sea of consciousness.
Tang Li Xue felt baffled in an instant when she saw the tiny transparent sword was floating right above her sea of consciousness.
Tang Li Xue immediately understood what the Tomb Owner''s Will did to her just now.
Instead of feeling happy or curious, Tang Li Xue felt even more scared and nervous.
The sea of consciousness was the most important part of every soul.
In short, the sea of consciousness was something like the brain in any human''s body.
In fact, the sea of consciousness was actually much more important than the brain for all cultivators or beasts since theirprehension ability, control of divine ability or Qi, and cultivation speed depended on it.
If the sea of consciousness was damaged even if it was just a tiny bit, it would hinder their control of divine ability or Qi, their cultivation would be stuck in the current stage, and theirprehension ability would get crippled.
If the sea of consciousness was damaged quite heavily, anyone would turn into an idiot in an instant.
Integrating the tiny transparent sword into her sea of consciousness was a very dangerous action, akin to imnting a chip into a normal human''s brain with surgery.
Tang Li Xue quickly checked her sea of consciousness in anxiousness.
She only sighed in relief after checking several times to make sure that her sea of consciousness waspletely intact and undamaged.
But after that, Tang Li Xue became really angry and scolded the Tomb Owner''s Will: "Damn you! How dare you do something dangerous like that without asking for my opinion first?! What if my sea of consciousness identally got damaged, and I turn into an idiot?!"
"Young sessor, you are worrying too much. I already spent the rest of my life researching about it after I fled from Central Continent and entered this Lightwind Continent, so how could I make such a stupid blunder." The Tomb Owner''s Will replied with a displeased tone.
"A stupid blunder you say?! Do you think you are a god or something?! Even the greatest surgeon can still make a mistake!" Tang Li Xue shouted back again with an angry tone.
"What is ''surgeon''?" The Tomb Owner''s Will asked.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
"Forget it. I will give you the rest of your inheritance now. Are you ready to ept it? I already ask, so don''t wher and say that I do it without asking again!" The Tomb Owner''s Will blurted to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining brighter when she heard the words from the Tomb Owner''s Will, but she immediately turned vignt and said: "Eh? There is still more inheritance for me?! Wait for a second... Is it something very painful like before? I rather not ept it if I must suffer like before."
The Tomb Owner''s Will was toozy to reply to Tang Li Xue''s question, and he just gave the rest of the inheritance to Tang Li Xue.
WEEEEEEEEENGGGG~!!!
A blinding light suddenly shone right above Tang Li Xue, and two items appeared from that blinding light.
Tang Li Xue immediately stretched both of her hands to catch the two falling items.
Tang Li Xue nced at the two items that she caught and found out that they were actually a burnt scroll and a dpidated thick book.
Chapter 456: [Soul Slaying Sword]!
Chapter 456: [Soul ying Sword]!
When Tang Li Xue saw the two items in her grasp, she felt really disappointed since she thought these two items did not seem that useful for her.
Actually, Tang Li Xue much prefer divine pills or heavenly fruits that could quickly increase her strength or made her gain more divine abilities rather than any martial art manuals.
She already has [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], [The Art of Concealment], and [Essence Devouring Technique] to learn anyway.
Those three arts have different purposes, and Tang Li Xue did not want to abandon any of them, so those three arts should be more than enough to keep her busy for a while.
Not to mention she also has [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual] in her mind that she had notpletely digested yet.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and asked with a tone filled with displeasure: "What are these things? A burnt scroll and a thick book?! Don''t tell me these two trashes¡ Cough¡ Cough¡ I mean these two items... oh and also that useless tiny sword are the only inheritance I got?!"
" You...! How rude! Young one, you really do not know how to appreciate the real treasures! If some people from the Central Continent know that you have these two items right now, you will surely get robbed and killed by them right after you step out from this tomb!" Tomb Owner''s Will felt insulted by Tang Li Xue''s exmation and immediately scolded her back.
Tang Li Xue did not want to waste more of her precious time in Inheritance Ground Tablet to argue with the Tomb Owner''s Will, so she decided to yield to him and said: "All right, I get it. I am sorry, okay? What are these things? Ancient martial art manual?"
"Ancient martial art manual you said?! Of course not! That burnt scroll is a divine rank martial art manual from Divine World! I identally found it when I investigated the remnant of a falling meteor!" Tomb Owner''s Will quickly exined with an agitated tone, so Tang Li Xue would know the true worth of the two items in her grasp.
"Eh... Divine... WHAT?! Divine rank martial art manual from Divine World?! Are you serious? You... You are not kidding with me, aren''t you?" Tang Li Xue jumped back and widened her eyes in shock while she asked the Tomb Owner''s Will with high pitched tone.
Tang Li Xue did not wait for the reply from Tomb Owner''s Will and impatiently unfurled the burnt scroll in her grasp.
But she immediately frowned deeper when she saw the content of the burnt scroll.
The scroll itself already burnt so badly, and only about 20 percent of the content could still be read while the rest already got burnt.
In Tang Li Xue''s opinion, the content of this scroll might be already undecipherable, since the scroll itself was already badly damaged.
Of course, the value of this burnt scroll would be still immeasurable and could make any immortal powerhouse go crazy in greed if the content of this burnt scroll was truly a Divine rank martial art from Divine World.
''Is the content of this scroll really Divine Rank Martial Art? Then... let''s check it... System!'' Tang Li Xue doubtfully thought as she raised her right hand and touched the content of the burnt scroll with her palm.
Ding!
[More than eighty percent of the information recorded in this scroll had been badly damaged.]
[System will match the content of the badly damaged scroll with the record from the database. The cost for the ess will be 6,500 Deity Coins. Do you agree? Yes/No]
''What the hell! 6,500 Deity Coins?! And... that is to just restore the content! The cost toprehend it must be even more expensive than that! Ooh,e on! System, you must be joking with me, right?! How the hell can I pay that much?!'' Tang Li Xue groaned andined to her system.
The most expensive art that Tang Li Xue had ever seen until now was [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], and it was only cost 3,000 Deity Coins in total toprehend it if she did not alreadyprehend [Extreme Yin Technique] and [Heavenly Yang Art].
[It is because the content of this badly damaged scroll is much more profound and valuable than the previous [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form].]
''Eh? Really? Can you help me check which one is more precious? The content of this burnt scroll or the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in my Dantian?'' Tang Li Xue tried to probe if her system could help herpare which one was more valuable between the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] and the Divine Martial Art written in the burnt scroll.
[The information recorded in the badly damaged scroll is 317 percent more valuable than the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl].]
''Oh... My... God~! The content of this lousy burnt scroll is actually worth 3 times more than my [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]?! Are you really serious?!'' Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have enough Deity Coins right now, or she would certainly let her system restore the content of this burnt scroll andprehend it on the spot.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm herself down, but the Tomb Owner''s Will thought that Tang Li Xue did not believe his words, so he asked: "If you do not believe me, then I can give you one more chance to rece them for another inheritance. How about that?"
She swiftly stored the burnt scroll into her space pouch since she was really afraid that the Tomb Owner''s Will would take back the burnt scroll from her.
"Thank you, there is no need for that! I like burnt-out things! They taste more delicious and also more fragrant." Tang Li Xue said as she smiled magnanimously with a tone as if she truly epted some loss.
The Tomb Owner''s Will: "....."
''This young one... she did not really n to eat that precious scrollter, right?'' The Tomb Owner''s Will doubtfully thought.
Tang Li Xue immediately tried to change the subject and asked: "Then what is this thick book? This is not a dictionary, right? Just so you know, I really hate reading any dictionary!"
"That is the result of my lifelong research to decipher the content of that burnt scroll. It was really hard since the scroll is too badly damaged, but I managed to find out most of the content through many experiments, trials, and errors." The Tomb Owner''s Will said with a proud tone.
"Hmm... So, you are saying that the content of this thick book is only the spection you deduce from the burnt scroll?" Tang Li Xue inquired in a skeptical tone.
"Spec... ''Spection'' you said?! Of course not! I really managed to restore the content of the burnt-out scroll in the end! That tiny transparent sword is the actual proof! No, I already named it Soul ying Sword before I passed away!" The Tomb Owner''s Will angrily shouted to scold Tang Li Xue.
"Soul ying Sword? Such a grandiose name... Is that tiny sword really that formidable? I thought it can only be used to kill some weak normal chicken with its puny size." Tang Li Xuezily said as shepletely looked down at the tiny transparent sword.
However, Tang Li Xue still decided to open the thick book and touched the content of the thick book with her right palm to let her system check it for her.
When she opened the first page, there was only [Soul ying Sword] written on it with a crooked font.
It seems the owner of this Crystal Pce Tomb really nned to name it [Soul ying Sword] in hisst moment.
''System, can you help me check how much the simrity between the content of this thick book and the content of the burnt scroll?'' Tang Li Xue thought as she tried to ask her system.
[Checking... The matching level is at 21.7% with the original content.]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief. At least her system was not greedy enough to ask for some Deity Coins to check that kind of information.
''Damn! Only about 21% is correct?! This Heavenly Sword Immortal really wasted most of his life for nothing!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in her mind.
''Wait a minute... System, can I know what the title of the content of the burnt scroll is?'' Tang Li Xue once again tried to ask for some information from her system.
[Checking... The title is [Divine Soul Forge].]
''[Divine Soul Forge]? Woah... Even the name is already super OP! Ahhh, I cannot wait to learn it!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brightly in excitement.
But then she immediately grumbled in disappointment: ''Sigh... Forget it. I do not even have 1,000 Deity Coins toprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] right now. Let''s take step by step for now. I shouldprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] and [Essence Devouring Technique] first.''
"Can only be used to kill some weak normal chicken? Puny size? Young one, your sight is really limited by your pathetic level of cultivation. Just so you know, you can use that puny [Soul ying Sword] to easily y any Nascent Soul Stage cultivator in one strike even with your current cultivation if you can use it correctly." The Tomb Owner''s Will bragged to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue did not say anything and only red disdainfully at the Tomb Owner''s Will as if he was saying something stupid like ''you can buy a mansion with a dried weed''.
"Sigh... if you really do not believe my words, I can let you choose..." The Tomb Owner''s Will wanted to let Tang Li Xue pick another inheritance if she really did not believe his words, but Tang Li Xue surely did not want to change her current inheritance, so she interrupted his words halfway.
"All right! So, all of these are the inheritance I got, right? You can send me out right now. You see... My time is really precious, and I am actually very busy! I must pick another important inheritance after this!" Tang Li Xue suddenly blurted out as she quickly stored the thick book into her space pouch too.
"Nope, you still have three more items as your inheritance. Do you still want to ept it? You can also choose to abandon it and quit from this tomb if you want to save your precious time. How about it?" The Tomb Owner''s Will asked Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
"Why don''t you said so before? Do you really need to give me two items first? Just hurry up and bring all of them out in one go." Tang Li Xue replied with an annoyed tone.
Chapter 457 Onward To the Next Inheritance!
Chapter 457 Onward To the Next Inheritance!
Unfortunately, thest three items were not that precious.
The first item was a silver bracelet adorned with a blue crystal orb called [Qi Storing Bracelet], and the function was to store the wearer Qi. The stored Qi could be used to replenish the wearer''s Qi if it were exhausted during the battle.
''Not bad... I can use this [Qi Storing Bracelet] to replenish my Qi after I used [Perpetual sh].'' Tang Li Xue thought as she wore the [Qi Storing Bracelet] on her left wrist.
When Tang Li Xue wore the [Qi Storing Bracelet], the bracelet started to absorb her Qi bit by bit over time. Tang Li Xue knew that the [Qi Storing Bracelet] already automatically began to store her Qi after she wore it.
The second item was a bottle of pills. There were five pills stored inside the bottle, and those pills were called [Foundation Establishment Pill].
[Foundation Establishment Pill] was usually used by Acupuncture Opening Stage cultivators to breakthrough to Foundation Establishment Stage and help them build a more solid cultivation foundation.
But Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators could also use [Foundation Establishment Pill] to improve their cultivation, so this [Foundation Establishment Pill] was actually quite rare, especially in a remote ce like Lightwind Continent.
Tang Li Xue happily epted a bottle of [Foundation Establishment Pill] with a satisfied smile on her stunningly beautiful face, and she quickly kept it in her space pouch.
She decided to eat itter on when she wanted to break through to Foundation Establishment Stage.
The third item was of course... a sword. It was a very beautiful white sword like a piece of art called [Frost Swan Sword].
Although [Frost Swan Sword] could not bepared with the powerful treasured swords in the Inheritance Room, but it was also quite lethal.
Tang Li Xue could sense a threatening chilling aura emitted from it.
Moreover, this [Frost Swan Sword] really suited Tang Li Xue. When Tang Li Xue wielded it, the white color of her [Frost Swan Sword] seems blended perfectly with her white dress and long silver hair.
Actually, this third item was a bonus given by the Tomb Owner''s Will to Tang Li Xue.
The Tomb Owner''s Will already observed Tang Li Xue''s battles all this time. He knew that Tang Li Xue did not have any sword to use, so she could only use her [Scepter of Disaster] as the recement and wield it like a sword.
''How embarrassing! How could the inheritor of Heavenly Sword Immortal do not have any proper sword to use?!'' The Tomb Owner''s Will thought before, so he decided to freely give this [Frost Swan Sword] to Tang Li Xue.
"That is it? Do you have more items to give me? Don''t worry! I am not a choosy person, so I can ept all..." Tang Li Xue said with a friendly smile, but the Tomb Owner''s Will already kicked her out from the Crystal Pce Tomb before she could finish her words.
Tang Li Xue instantly teleported out from the Crystal Pce Tomb, and she appeared at the front gate of Crystal Pce Tomb.
"What an impolite person?! At least he needs to wait for me to finish talking first before kicking me out, right?!" Tang Li Xue grumbled in displeasure as she took Little Loki onto her embrace and walked away from the Crystal Pce Tomb.
*Ding!

Tang Li Xue felt an incredible sense offort washed her entire body when her cultivation level continuously breakthrough for four times in a row.
She closed her eyes in delight to sense her strength that kept growing explosively in a while.
Follow new episodes on the lightno?velpub.c?om tform.
After her strength stopped increasing, Tang Li Xue slowly opened back her topaz blue eyes.
She smiled and said with a happy tone: "Rank 7 Acupuncture Opening Stage! With this, I am only 3 ranks away from the Peak of Acupuncture Opening Stage, then I can consume the [Foundation Establishment Pills] to break through to Foundation Establishment Stage!"
Tang Li Xue''s mood was really good, so she grabbed Little Loki, that silently sat on her right shoulder, and happily hugged it.
"Little Loki, can you sense which direction we can find a more precious inheritance just like before?" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki while gently patted its tiny furry head.
Little Loki was hesitating for a few moments.
Little Loki was currently hesitating not because it could not sense any precious inheritance anymore but because it could sense several precious inheritances on the same level scattered in different directions.
After pondering carefully for a while, Little Loki finally raised its tiny paw and pointed toward the south. The reason Little Loki picked that direction was because... well... it was the closest one among the other inheritance ces.
"Oh, that way? All right, let''s go quickly before the inheritance got taken by the other cultivators! It is already about two weeks since I entered this Inheritance Ground Tablet. The other cultivators should have already entered this Inheritance Ground Tablet too." Tang Li Xue muttered with a solemn tone to Little Loki while she kept petting its soft ck fur.
Tang Li Xue immediately executed [Snow Dance Step], and her slender figure swiftly dashed toward the south while she kept embracing Little Loki.
Strangely, the surrounding lush green hills were getting more vibrant and the surrounding nts seem to be more flourishing the more Tang Li Xue headed to the south.
Even the surrounding spiritual energy became even denser, but the surrounding air also became more humid, so the white fog around Tang Li Xue became thicker too.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue became quite uneasy when her vision was covered by this white fog.
She would have great confidence if she still has her [Extrasensory Perception], but unfortunately, her [Extrasensory Perception] was sealed here, and even the detection range of her [Spirit Perception] got restricted so much too.
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to slow down her speed and raised her vignce to the maximum.
Since Tang Li Xue slowed down her speed a lot, it took her more than half a day to reach the destination ce.
Tang Li Xue thought she would find another tomb, temple, or ruin containing another inheritance at her destination ce, but contrary to her expectation, she only found a vast field here.
"Wait a minute... Don''t tell me that this is... Herb Field?! No, this should be called Herb Garden! Oh, My God! All of these are precious herbs and fruits?! Just how many precious herbs were nted here?! One hundred? No, it should be much more than that!" Tang Li Xue muttered in shock as her heart started beating faster.
Actually, there were not only precious herbs but there were also many kinds of nts that were nted here, such as brambles, trees filled with strange fruits, and so on.
"Uwehehehehe... So, all of these precious herbs and fruits would be mine?! Oops... my saliva is almost flowing out." Tang Li Xue muttered as sheughed strangely.
"Nyaw~!!!" But Little Loki suddenly jumped out from Tang Li Xue''s embrace andnded on her right shoulder, then it bared its fangs toward Tang Li Xue''s right.
Tang Li Xue swiftly brought Little Loki and jumped into a nearby bush.
She squatted down and hid behind the bush while executed her [Art of Concealment] to hid her breath and aura to make her more undetectable.
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly heard a male voiceing from in front of the bush: "Eh, I am quite sure that I hear a cat''s voiceing from here. Is it hide in the bushes?"
"Are you sure you really hear a cat''s sound? A cat? Here in the middle of the herb garden? Hahaha... I am sure you are just being delusional." The other male voice mocked the first male.
"No way! My family is raising fifteen cats at home. So, how could I hear it wrong?" The first male replied with a displeasure tone.
Tang Li Xue raised her right hand and pushed the bush in front of her eyes a bit to peek at them.
There were three people, but Tang Li Xue did not know anyone of them.
Two males and one girl...
However, Tang Li Xue recognized the identical clothes they currently wore since she already got chased by them before she entered this Inheritance Ground Tablet.
''That uniform... they are the core disciples from Oracle Mountain Sect! Damn it! So, they already got here first!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth while frowned deeply.

"Oh, shut up you two! Just focus onpleting our job for now! Do you want to get punished by our senior brother again?!" The girl scolded the two males while she put a talisman onto the grassy ground and used some kind of long pen to inscribe something on the ground.
"All right!" The two males replied in unison, and they also did the same thing as that girl just now.
''What are they doing?! Wait... This is... I get it! They are actually setting a formation! I see... They want to conceal this herb garden from the other cultivators with arge concealment formation and harvest all of these precious herbs and fruits alone!'' Tang Li Xue immediately understood after she saw the inscription on the ground.
Chapter 458 Sudden Scream!
Chapter 458 Sudden Scream!
There were so many precious nts in this ancient herb garden.
Golden ginseng over 70,000 years old, Vitality Revitalizing Grass over 50,000 years old, Blood Cleansing Mushroom over 80,000 years, and many more...
Each of those precious nts was priceless material for pill making and needed to be harvested carefully, or they might be ruined.
It might need more than two weeks for the Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples to carefully harvest so many precious nts.
Who knew how many other cultivators would find this herb garden other than them in those two weeks!
So, the Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples nned to hide this herb garden with concealment formation, so they could harvest all of the precious nts here in peace.
''What to do now? Should I just ambush and beat them all before they find me? There are only three core disciples here anyway. I believe I can defeat the three of them swiftly with my current sword martial arts and my new [Frost Swan Sword].'' Tang Li Xue thought with an eager expression.
Little Loki already also put an eager cute expression as it licked its tiny right w.
''No, that will not work. Since there are three Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples here, it means the other Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples should be around here too.'' Tang Li Xue immediately shook her head to reject her previous idea.
The cultivation of three Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples here was already at High-Rank Acupuncture Opening Stage.
Tang Li Xue already reached Rank 7 Acupuncture Opening Stage after shepleted herst quest, so it means she also already reached High-Rank Acupuncture Opening Stage.
(Low Rank is Rank 1-3, Mid Rank is 4-6, High Rank is around Rank 7-9, Peak Rank is Rank 10.)
With surprise element from ambush and her lethal sword techniquesbined with her [Frost Swan Sword], she has the confidence to swiftly defeating two or three High-Rank Acupuncture Opening Stage cultivators, but if there were more than that...
''Sigh... It would be bad if they shout to call more friends. There is no way my two hands can fight head-on against more than six hands at once, so let''s be patient for now and wait for the right timing.'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind as she slowly retreated farther from the bushes.
Tang Li Xue carefully distanced herself from the three Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples, so she would not get discovered by them.
But when she took a few steps back, suddenly...
"AAAAAAAHHHHHH~!!! HEEEEELLLLPPPP~!!!"
"GYAAAAAAA~!!! AAAARRGGGGHH~!!!"
"MON... MONSTER~!!! RRUUUNNNNN~!!!"
Tang Li Xue was suddenly startled by several shouts from a farther ce ahead of them.
"Not good! There is something bad happened at our camp! Let''s go back now!" The female core disciple said to the two male core disciples with an anxious tone.
The two male core disciples nodded their heads in agreement with a solemn expression.
The three of them quickly ran back to their camp.
''Hmm... So, they already set a camp nearby. I wonder what happened there? Should I follow them?'' Tang Li Xue frowned and pondered her next move carefully.
Carelessly approaching an enemy camp was certainly a very dangerous option, since she could easily get caught.
It was still all right before since she could use her perfect copy as a decoy to escape.
She could even use [Swap] skill to switch ces with her perfect copy in a crucial moment, or use her [Damage Transfer] skill to transfer all the damage she received to her perfect copy.
But Tang Li Xue was alone right now without her perfect copy to help her!
No one could save or help her if she got surrounded and got caught!
In the end, Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth to steel her resolve and decided to follow the three Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples from behind.
''I should at least check their camp location and what kind of creature is attacking them right now. It should be all right. I am sure they will not find me if I check then from afar.'' Tang Li Xueforted herself.
''But before that...'' Tang Li Xue took out something from her
system''s inventory.
It was actually [Premium Armor Chest]. Tang Li Xue got it from the added reward of herst quest since she got a Perfect Evaluation.
Little Loki jumped out from Tang Li Xue''s embrace and curiously approached the [Premium Armor Chest].
''Let''s see what I can get from this [Premium Armor Chest]! I hope I can get something useful to increase my strength.'' Tang Li Xue prayed in her heart as she tried to open the [Premium Armor Chest].
[Please choose the armor part you want to get first before opening the Premium Armor Chest.]
Several armor parts appeared in Tang Li Xue''s mind, such as helmet, armguard, inner armor, outer armor, greave, boot, skirt, even essories like a ring, pendant, bracelet, and so on.
After careful consideration, Tang Li Xue decided to choose armor since she already has [Critical Strikers] to protect her hands and [Shadow Striders] to protect her feet.
But there were two armor choices avable... inner armor and outer armor!
In Tang Li Xue''s mind, the outer armor should be like te armor. It was heavier but provide better protection.
While inner armor should be like chainmail that could be worn under the clothes.
"All right, I choose inner armor." Tang Li Xue muttered.
In Tang Li Xue''s opinion, the heavy outer armor would reduce her speed and flexibility if she wore it now.
Meanwhile, she needed agility the most right now if she wanted to ambush anyone or retreat from that ce swiftly.
That was the reason why she decided to choose inner armor instead since inner armor would not hinder her movement.

EXTRA STORY
[Big Glutton, Little Loki]
When the Tomb Owner''s Will exined the function of [Qi Storing celet], [Foundation Establishment Pill], and [Frost Swan Sword] one by one to Tang Li Xue, Little Loki already stared at the three items and drooled.
Nyaaa~!
Little Loki jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s chest and put a pitiful begging expression. Even its third eye became teary.
Chapter 459 Creepy Herb Garden!
"Nice! This inner armor looks awesome, and its overall stats enhancement is also very good!" Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes brightened in excitement as she admired the [Arcane Tunic] in her grasp.
The [Arcane Tunic] has a light blue color. It did not only look nice but also light and soft when Tang Li Xue held it.
Tang Li Xue undressed her white dress first, then she put on the [Arcane Tunic] before she wore her white dress again.
She decided to wear her white dress on the top of the [Arcane Tunic].
Tang Li Xue tried to move around swiftly while executed several sword techniques in session.
She felt even more impressed by the [Arcane Tunic] since it felt reallyfortable to wear and did not hinder her movement at all.
Tang Li Xue patted her chest and smiled in satisfaction at the [Arcane Tunic] she just got, then she quickly brought Little Loki and chased after the three Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples.
But Tang Li Xue still did not dare to carelessly approach their camp, so she decided to climb onto the tall giant tree near the camp to look at the situation first.
"Calm down! Do not panic! Gather in one ce and set the defense formation quickly!" The older core disciples shouted to warn the frightened core disciples as he quickly unsheathed his sword and waved it several times as if he tried to cut something.
"Senior Brother~!"
"All right, Senior Brother~!"
The other frightened core disciples quickly regained their senses and gathered around their Senior Brother.
This Senior Brother was actually the leader of Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples, Beiming Chu. He held the same position as Ye Zhen from Immortal Sword Sect and Meng Ying from White Crane Sect.
''Eh? There are only seven of them? Why are there so few of them? Sigh... I thought there would be tens of them in their camp.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, but she also felt a bit strange since there were so few of them.
If the Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples could hear Tang Li Xue''s thoughts, they might be vomiting a few liters of blood in anger and shouted out: "Who do you think stole all of our ancient jade emblems before?! It is YOU, right?! So, how could youin that there are so few of us now!"
Nevertheless, Tang Li Xue was still not powerful enough to defeat all of them, even though there were only seven of them here since the three among them had already breakthrough from Acupuncture Opening Stage and reached the early Foundation Establishment Pill Stage.
Moreover, they seem currently facing something horrible right now, so Tang Li Xue decided to observe them for now while waiting for the right opportunity to strike.
''This white fog is really pissing me off. I cannot even see what they are currently fighting clearly!'' Tang Li Xue grumbled in annoyance.
.....
"Senior Brother, we already set a tripleyer of defense formation!" The female core disciples reported to Beiming Chu.
"Good! But do not lower your guard down yet! We still do not know what we are facing right now!" Beiming Chu warned the other core disciples with a solemn tone.
The other Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples nodded at Beiming Chu.
They also unsheathed their respective weapons while facing in different directions as if they were prepared to defend against the attack from all sides.
One second... Three seconds... Five seconds... Ten seconds...
Each second in this kind of dangerous situation was truly nerve-wracking, and it felt very long.
Just when some of them gulped their saliva to calm down themselves...
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The ground under their feet exploded!
"AAAAHHH~!!! SENIOR BROTHER, HEEELPPPP ME! SOMETHING IS PULLING..." But before he could finish his words, that male core disciple was pulled into the ground and vanished.
"Watch your feet, everyone! That creature bypasses our defense formation from underground!" Beiming Chu warned everyone while brandished his sword using all of his strength toward the hole on the ground where that male core disciple was pulled into.
BOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Beiming Chu''s sword made the ground exploded, but he failed to find anything there.
Even the missing male core disciple could no longer be found in that hole.
The other core disciples shuddered in fear as they distanced themselves from the hole on the ground.
But one of them identally stepped out from the protection formation while doing that!
BBBWOOOOOOOOSSSHHHH~!!!
Suddenly, that female core disciple was pulled backward by something powerful.
She was very frightened and immediately shouted for help: "HEEEELPPP~!!! HELP ME EVERYONE~!!! THERE IS SOMETHING..."
"Tsk!!! Don''t you dare to look down on me!" Beiming Chu gnashed his teeth and clicked his tongue in anger as he swung his sword and cut something that pulled the female core disciple backward.
The female core disciple fell onto the ground, but she quickly crawled back into the defense formation in fright.
Beiming Chu helped the female core disciple to get up, but he saw something that binding the female core disciple.
"This is... a vine?" Beiming Chu murmured as he frowned deeply.
He swiftly cut the vine that binding the female core disciple''s body with his sword and examined it closer, but the thick vine quickly withered and turned to dust after he held it.
RUMBLE... RUMBLE... RUMBLE...RUMBLE... RUMBLE...
Then the grassy ground below their feet suddenly trembled violently.
"Sh*t! Disperse now! Watch out for your feet! Do not let that vine catch your feet!" Beiming Chu shouted as he quickly retreated from the ce he stood before.
The other core disciples immediately followed Beiming Chu''s instruction...
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The ground where they stood before exploded again, but the explosion was much greater than before!
"How could it be?! Don''t tell me that this is..." Even Beiming Chu muttered while shuddered in horror right now.
.....
Tang Li Xue squinted her topaz blue eyes and thought with a solemn expression: ''Invisible vines? No, it should be a man-eating nt equipped with invisible vines. To think such a terrifying creature is currently hiding in this Herb Garden!''
However, Tang Li Xue quickly remembered the herb garden in Asura Demon Sect that she infiltrated before.
''There should be many more terrifying creatures living here like in that ce. Sigh... If only I can use my me of Pride right now, I can easily burn any dangerous nts.'' Tang Li Xue thought while she shook her head in disappointment.
Many dangerous types of nts in the Immortal World were very powerful, and they might even have dangerous strange abilities.
Moreover, they were very resilient since they have very strong vitality and regeneration.
Thankfully, most of them were afraid of me.
Of course, they were afraid of the Spirit mes used to fight, not the normal me used to cook foods.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue still could not use her me of Pride since the Phoenix Of Pride was still fall asleep to digest the source of Purple Ghost me right now.
''Ahhh, damn it! With these kinds of dangerous nts littering around here like this one, how could I calmly harvest these many precious herbs and fruits?!'' Tang Li Xue groaned in dejection.
When Tang Li Xue still pondered her next n carefully...
Little Loki, that sat quietly on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder all this time, suddenly used its tiny furry paw to pat Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder several times.
Tang Li Xue nced at Little Loki with a gentle smile on her face.
But when Tang Li Xue wanted to ask why Little Loki called her, Little Loki used its right paw to touch Tang Li Xue''s pink lips, while it put its left paw to its mouth, signaled Tang Li Xue to not make any sound.
Then Little Loki pointed its left paw downward.
Tang Li Xue still felt puzzled, but she still decided to take a nce below where Little Loki''s left paw pointed to.
Tang Li Xue suddenly shuddered when she saw the scene below her.
She was currently sat on the thick trunk of the tall giant tree, but who knew that this tall giant tree was actually the creature that currently attacking the Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples!
How could Tang Li Xue know about that?
Because currently, the tall giant tree opened its mouth filled with sharp teeth and chewing one of the Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples that it seized through the underground with its invisible vine just now.
CRUNCH... CRUNCH... CRUNCH... CRUNCH... CRUNCH...
Tang Li Xue reflexively almost wanted to shout out loud in shock and fright, but Little Loki quickly used its tiny paw to close Tang Li Xue''s mouth, so she would not make any sound.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized what Little Loki means and nodded at Little Loki with a serious expression to show that she understood.
This carnivorous tree actually detected its prey from the sound!
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue did not shout or make any loud sound when she was so near to this carnivorous tree until now, or she might already be a snack for this carnivorous tree too.
Tang Li Xue immediately wanted to keep her distance from this carnivorous tree before it could lock her location.
The carnivorous tree might be not targeting her for now, but who knew if it realized Tang Li Xue''s presence after it defeated and eaten all of Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples over there!
''I must quickly get away from here! but... how?'' Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth in nervousness, but she did not dare to move carelessly because she was afraid of alerting this giant carnivorous tree.
Just when Tang Li Xue still thinking about what to do right now, the situation of Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples already deteriorated so much under the relentless attacks from the invisible vines.
Finally, Beiming Chu was forced to take the worst decision and instructed all of hisrades to run separately in different directions to increase their survival chance.
''Oh, no! What the hell is he doing?!'' Tang Li Xue''s expression turned darker when she saw Beiming Chu swiftly dashed toward her direction while kept dodging the attack from the invisible vines that chasing behind him.
Chapter 460: Join Hands!
Chapter 460: Join Hands!
Tang Li Xue became more anxious when she saw Beiming Chu got closer and closer to her current location.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue did not dare to jump or move around recklessly from the tree trunk she currently stood right now since she was afraid that the giant carnivorous tree would notice her.
¡®Come on, man! Don¡¯te here! Go away! You will die if you run toward here! Not only that, but you will also drag me to die with you too!¡¯ Tang Li Xue nervously shooed Beiming Chu away in her mind.
Who knew Beiming Chu shouted out loud toward Tang Li Xue¡¯s direction instead: ¡°Come here and get me, you disgusting creature! Do you really think I am afraid of you?! I, Beiming Chu, The leader of core disciples from Oracle Mountain Sect, challenge you to fight one on one against me!¡±
¡®What the hell?! He is crazy! Did he lost his mind in fear and panic?!¡¯ Tang Li Xue became dumbfounded in an instant when she heard Beiming Chu¡¯s loud shout.
But Tang Li Xue immediately realized that Beiming Chu did that to attract the attention of the giant carnivorous tree.
He used himself as bait to distract this giant carnivorous tree, so it would not targeting hisrades first, and hisrades would have enough time to escape from here.
Tang Li Xue began to admire this Beiming Chu¡¯s courage and loyalty after she was aware of what was Beiming Chu trying to do.
Furthermore, Tang Li Xue also realized that Beiming Chu also has an exceptional observation skill since he could know the location of this giant carnivorous tree with so little clue in the middle of this white fog.
When Beiming Chu arrived near the giant carnivorous tree, he suddenly jumped while spun his body in mid-air.
His green-colored Qi poured out from his Dantian toward his right arm and umted onto the sword in his grasp until it was shining with green light, then he swung it with all of his strength.
[Air Burst sh]!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
The violent wind sh created from Beiming Chu¡¯s Qi heavily stroke the giant body of the carnivorous tree.
It seems Beiming Chu nned to cut down this giant carnivorous tree with his strongest single strike.
The giant body of the carnivorous tree shook greatly, and even Tang Li Xue, which stood silently on one of its branches, almost slipped and fell from the carnivorous tree, but she quickly leaned on the main trunk to stabilize herself.
RRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRR~!!!
The giant carnivorous tree roared out loud in pain and anger.
Beiming Chu¡¯s [Air Burst sh] managed to cut the main trunk of the giant carnivorous tree quite deeply, but it failed to topple down the giant carnivorous tree.
Moreover, the deep-cut wound was rapidly recovering with a speed that could be seen with naked eyes.
Beiming Chu gnashed his teeth in anger and disappointment since his all-out attack failed to take down the giant carnivorous tree.
But his eyes swiftly scanned all parts of the carnivorous tree to find its weak point, and right at that time, he finally realized that there was a person currently stood at one of the carnivorous tree¡¯s branches.
Yes, Beiming Chu finally saw Tang Li Xue.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue did not wear her fox mask anymore right now since it was shattered during her battle with the crystal puppets in the second trial to get the inheritance of Heavenly Sword Immortal before.
Beiming Chu did not recognize Tang Li Xue as the one who robbed his team¡¯s ancient jade emblems.
However¡ As usual, Tang Li Xue¡¯s incredible beauty mesmerized Beiming Chu the moment he saw her.
Just like the other people, Beiming Chu also fell into a daze as he could not take his eyes off Tang Li Xue.
While the angry carnivorous tree currently used many of its invisible vines to attack the dumbfounded Beiming Chu at once!
If this attack managed to strike the current defenseless Beiming Chu, there was no doubt that Beiming Chu would be killed in an instant!
When Tang Li Xue saw that, she reflexively shouted to warn Beiming Chu: ¡°Watch out! Get down quickly!¡±
Tang Li Xue¡¯s shout immediately awoke Beiming Chu from his daze.
He reflexively followed Tang Li Xue¡¯s words and quickly squatted down.
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
The sharp invisible vines from the carnivorous tree struck the tree behind Beiming Chu instead, and the sharp invisible vines prated the thick tree trunk easily.
It could be easily imagined if they hit Beiming Chu¡¯s body, they would certainly make Beiming Chu¡¯s body filled with many holes!
Cold sweat poured out profusely from Tang Li Xue¡¯s forehead.
¡°Ah¡ I have really done it¡¡± Tang Li Xue just realized that she identally did a stupid thing to warn Beiming Chu.
Even Little Loki rolled its third eye and facepalmed with its paw at Tang Li Xue¡¯s stupid act.
RRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRR~!!!
The carnivorous tree roared out loud in anger as it started to il its branches violently to throw off Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue could not stand on the carnivorous tree¡¯s branch anymore in that kind of situation, so she decided to jump down quickly, but before her feet couldnd on the ground, several invisible vines suddenly shot out from the ground right below her.
Tang Li Xue¡¯s expression turned solemn as she took out her [Frost Swan Sword] from her space pouch.
Just when Tang Li Xue wanted to use her [Frost Swan Sword] to fend off the several invisible vines that attacking her, Beiming Chu suddenly shed toward her and cut off those invisible vines first.
Tang Li Xue was surprised by Beiming Chu¡¯s action.
But Tang Li Xue did not lower her guard at all as her feet gracefullynded on the ground.
Beiming Chu sensed Tang Li Xue¡¯s suspicious re, so he turned around to face Tang Li Xue and smiled at her.
Beiming Chu saluted at Tang Li Xue and said: ¡°I am Bei Mingchu, the core disciple of Oracle Mountain Sect. Thank you very much for your help, young miss. If it were not for your warning, I would be dead by now. I, Beiming Chu, owe you my life.¡±
Tang Li Xue¡¯s pink lips curved upward as she realized something and thought: ¡®I see¡ So, he does not recognize me. It makes sense since I do not wear any mask right now.¡¯
¡°Oh, so you are Brother Beiming. I am Xue¡ Xue Chengmei. You do not need to thank me for¡¡± Tang Li Xue saluted Beiming Chu too, but before she could finish her words¡
¡°Watch out!¡± Beiming Chu suddenly shouted as he pushed Tang Li Xue away.
BBOOOOOMMM~!!!
Several invisible vines shot out from the ground under their feet again, but Beiming Chu and Tang Li Xue managed to barely avoid it.
Those several invisible vines flew quickly toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue raised the [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp to block them.
Her upper body suddenly spun while her feet swiftly took a circr step, then she swung the [Frost Swan Sword] rapidly several times.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
Not only Tang Li Xue managed to cut all of the invisible vines that attacking her, but even her [Frost Swan Sword] froze all of the invisible vines that she cut to prevent them from regenerating.
Beiming Chu widened his eyes in amazement.
¡°Miss Xue is really amazing. I, Beiming Chu, really admire your strength and elegance.¡± Beiming Chu praised Tang Li Xue with fascinated expression.
¡°Thank you, you are very strong too.¡± Tang Li Xue smiled back and nodded at Beiming Chu, but her dazzling smile made Beiming Chu blushed instead.
Unfortunately, the carnivorous tree was not an idiot.
It immediately pulled its frozen vines until it smashed onto the ground and shattered.
After the frozen part shattered, its invisible vines started to grow crazily again, and it used its invisible vines to attack both Tang Li Xue and Beiming Chu again.
¡°This carnivorous tree has rapid regeneration. We can only take it down in one strike, or it will keep regenerating.¡± Tang Li Xue muttered to Beiming Chu.
¡°I think so too. That is why I used half of my Qi to execute my strongest martial art technique to take it down before. But I still failed to bring it down¡¡± Beiming Chu replied to Tang Li Xue with an embarrassed tone.
¡°I understand. Let me try it this time. Can you make it busy and protect me for a few moments?¡± Tang Li Xue asked Beiming Chu with a serious expression.
¡°Leave it to me, Miss Xue! I promise to never let it touch you as long as I am still alive!¡± Beiming Chu nodded at Tang Li Xue as he stood in front of her while swinging his sword to cut tens of invisible vines that kept attacking them.
¡°Then I will trust my life to you, Brother Beiming.¡± Tang Li Xue replied as she raised the [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp.
Tang Li Xue poured her Qi onto her [Frost Swan Sword] to condense the sharpest sword intent and wrapped it on her [Frost Swan Sword].
[Paragon Sword Technique]!
Of course, she would never use [Perpetual sh] since it would drain all of her Qi in one go, then it made herpletely exhausted and defenseless for a few hours.
Tang Li Xue still did not trust Beiming Chu at all.
She was still aware that Beiming Chu would sooner orter realize that she was the one who robbed him and Meng Ying before.
Who knew if he would suddenly stab her from behindter.
When terrifying sharpest sword intent condensed from [Paragon Sword Technique]pletely wrapped Tang Li Xue¡¯s [Frost Swan Sword], even Beiming Chu shuddered when he felt a terrible sense of dangering from Tang Li Xue¡¯s sword.
¡°Go forward, Brother Beiming! Help me open the way! I will take that tree down with my sword!¡± Tang Li Xue instructed Beiming Chu.
Chapter 461: Close Victory!
Chapter 461: Close Victory!
Beiming Chu nodded his head and followed Tang Li Xue''s instruction without any hesitation.
He kicked the ground and dashed toward the giant carnivorous tree with his full speed while swinging his sword around to deflect the rapid attacks from so many invisible vines.
Tang Li Xue followed right behind Beiming Chu while she kept swiftly shifting her body to the right and left to closely avoid the attacks of the invisible vines that were continuously targeting her from the side, rear, and below.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s Qi kept steadily umting at the [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp to condense an even more terrifying sharpest sword intent.
However, the number of invisible vines that attacking them seemed to increase faster than they could imagine.
Even Beiming Chu started to have a hard time blocking them all and got injured by them little by little.
The relentless attacks from so many invisible vines managed to graze Beiming Chu''s shoulder, waist, arm, and thigh.
Fortunately, they were not fatal, and they were not deep enough to hinder Beiming Chu''s movement.
"This is bad! Miss Xue, there are just too many of them! I cannot block them all alone!" Beiming Chu blurted out to Tang Li Xue with a frustrated tone as one of the invisible vines struck his wrist and almost made him dropped the sword in his grasp.
Right after Beiming Chu spoke, one invisible vine managed to slip past his defense and bound his right ankle.
"OH, NO!" Beiming Chu shouted as he tried to cut the invisible vine that binding his right ankle, but the invisible vine quickly pulled upward and hanged him upside down.
Tang Li Xue swiftly swung her [Frost Swan Sword] to cut the invisible vine and released Beiming Chu.
But when Beiming Chu dropped back onto the ground, the other invisible vines were already moved swiftly and bound Beiming Chu''s right and left hands to restrain his movement.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized that she would fall into the passive situation if she kept helping Beiming Chu and blocking the invisible vines.
"Hold on! Just do your best not to die until I cut down that carnivorous tree!" Tang Li Xue muttered to Beiming Chu as she jumped onto Beiming Chu''s shoulder from behind and jumped again toward the giant carnivorous tree.
RRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRRRR~!!!
The giant carnivorous tree roared out loud, and it seems to be angrier when it sensed that Tang Li Xue got closer and closer to it.
It looked like even the giant carnivorous tree felt threatened by Tang Li Xue''s [Paragon Sword Technique] wrapped on her [Frost Swan Sword].
After using several of his invisible vines to tied down Beiming Chu and made him unable to move anymore, the giant carnivorous tree did not even think to kill Beiming Chu first, and it immediately urged all of its invisible vines to attack Tang Li Xue at once from all directions.
Hundreds of invisible vines flooded toward Tang Li Xue like a giant tsunami.
Tang Li Xue knew she could not block them all, and she also did not even have any space to dodge them too.
When those hundreds of invisible vines almost struck Tang Li Xue...
BBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
Hundreds of invisible vines only managed to strike an empty ground.
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure suddenly vanished right before those hundreds of invisible vines hit her!
[Shadow sh]!
Tang Li Xue teleported onto the giant carnivorous tree''s shade 100 meters from where she was stood before!
[Water Mirage]!
Tang Li Xue was only several meters away from the giant carnivorous tree, but she also knew that there would be more danger the closer she was toward the giant carnivorous tree.
So, Tang Li Xue decided to use [Water Mirage] to probe the way ahead of her and also confuse the giant carnivorous tree.
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure was split into four, then from four into eight, and so on...
When Tang Li Xue split into twenty-four identical figures, all of them sprinted toward the giant carnivorous tree at once!
Of course, the giant carnivorous tree did not stay still to wait for Tang Li Xue to cut it.
The giant carnivorous tree immediately controlled hundreds of invisible vines to attack twenty-four Tang Li Xues from behind!
PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF...
Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirages] got destroyed and burst out like water bubbles, they turned back into water one by one by the fierce attacks from the invisible vines.
Seven meters...
Five meters...
Three meters...
When Tang Li Xue was only two meters away from the giant carnivorous tree and was ready to swing her [Frost Swan Sword] to cut down the carnivorous tree...
BWOOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
The giant carnivorous tree suddenly opened its massive mouth filled with sharp teeth, and something resembling a tongue... or maybe a root was shooting out from its massive mouth!
The speed was inconceivable fast that Tang Li Xue did not even have any time to react at all!
If Tang Li Xue failed to block it, there was no doubt that this root would prate her chest and fatally wounded her!
Little Loki already quickly stood up on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder and was ready to help Tang Li Xue block this root.
But suddenly, Little Loki sensed a transparent barrier enveloped Tang Li Xue''s entire body.
[Arcane Barrier]!
Arcane Barrier: Create a spell shield that reduces the damage taken by half. Duration: 30 Second. Cooldown: 20 minutes.
At the critical moment, Tang Li Xue activated the equipment skill from her new inner armor, the [Arcane Tunic].
Moreover, [Arcane Tunic] has a 20% damage reduction, so Tang Li Xue would probably only receive 30% to 40% damage from the giant carnivorous tree''s sudden attack.
BBAAAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
The giant carnivorous tree''s tongue mercilessly struck Tang Li Xue''s chest heavily!
-16,743!
[Arcane Tunic]''s durability: 476/500!
Even under the protection of her [Arcane Tunic] and [Arcane Barrier], Tang Li Xue still coughed out a mouthful of blood as some of her internal organs were injured.
''Damn it! More than 16,000 damage! If I do not wear [Arcane Tunic] and use [Arcane Barrier], I would probably take three times more damage than that!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she muffled her groan.
However, Tang Li Xue suddenly felt her wound recovered a bit after that.
+2,512!
This was actually the effect of [Arcane Shroud], the equipment effect of her [Arcane Tunic].
Arcane Shroud: Absorb 15% of the damage taken and turn it into HP.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue did not get thrown off backward from the giant carnivorous tree''s heavy strike thanks to all of those!
"Die, you cursed tree!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she swung the [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp with all of her might.
Tang Li Xue also guessed that her [Paragon Sword Technique] might not be powerful enough to take down the giant carnivorous tree in one attack, so she added two more skills on top of that.
[Chivalrous Sword Art], Trading Blow!
A sword technique from [Chivalrous Sword Art] that deal 200% damage to the enemy while the user will receive 60% damage.
Plus... [Critical Striker]''s Weapon Skill... [Final Strike]!
Final Strike: Deal 3x damage, Critical Rate +20%, Attack Speed+ 30%. Cooldown: 1 hour.
Tang Li Xue held her [Frost Swan Sword] with both of her hands so tightly, and she was chopping the giant carnivorous tree horizontally!
PSSSHHH~!!!
The main trunk of the giant carnivorous tree was really hard. Both of Tang Li Xue''s palms started to bleed, but she did not halt her chopping movement at all.
CREEEEEEEEEAAAAAAKKKK~!!!
The giant carnivorous tree let out a painful deafening screak.
The giant carnivorous tree did not want to die, so it quickly urged its rapid regeneration to heal its wound before Tang Li Xue chopped down its body.
Unfortunately, the giant carnivorous tree forgot about something important...
The freezing aura from Tang Li Xue''s [Frost Swan Sword] could prevent its rapid regeneration!
It means the giant carnivorous tree could not regenerate the frozen part of its body unless it got rid of the frozen part first.
CRACK... CRACK... CRACK... CRACK... CRACK...
The giant trunk of the carnivorous tree began to nt.
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Then the giant carnivorous tree finally toppled down after Tang Li Xue chopped it down.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
When she rxed her tense muscle, exhaustion and pain began to flood her body, so she fell limply onto the grassy ground and sat down for a few moments there.
"Uhhh... Miss Xue? Do you sessfully take that creature down? Can you help me to cut these vines if you are already free?" Beiming Chu asked Tang Li Xue with an embarrassed tone.
Currently, Beiming Chu''s body was still bound by many vines, so he was still unable to move.
"Oh, all right. Wait for a minute... I will release you now." After used one of her [Talisman of Renegeration +3] to herself, Tang Li Xue stood up and walked toward Beiming Chu.
The [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp glinted coldly as Tang Li Xue slowly approached Beiming Chu.
''This is a really good chance, isn''t it? He cannot move at all right now, so I can easily behead him in one strike!'' Tang Li Xue pondered in her mind.
Tang Li Xue narrowed her topaz blue eyes dangerously as she emitted out a faint murderous intent.
"To think you really can cut that tree monster in one strike. Miss Xue, you are not only beautiful but also really strong! I admire you even more! Sigh... My cultivation is higher than yours, but my strength is not as good as yours. I really feel ashamed." Beiming Chu did not realize Tang Li Xue''s intention to kill him and praising her again.
Chapter 462: Clingy Beiming Chu!
Chapter 462: Clingy Beiming Chu!
Tang Li Xue stared coldly at the tied Beiming Chu while pondered her options carefully.
After a few moments, Tang Li Xue finally loosened her grip on the [Frost Swan Sword] and sighed: ''Sigh... I am still too soft. Although I knew that it will be a fatal weakness, but... I really cannot act so decisively like Instructor Mei Lan.''
''All right, I cannot kill him unless he tried to kill me first. But it does not mean that I cannot use him at all, right?! I can still use him as a hostage and exchange him with something valuable from the other Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples.'' Tang Li Xue thought as she put her slim finger onto her chin.
"Err... Hello? Miss Xue? Can you set me free from these vines now?" Beiming Chu muttered with an embarrassed tone as he tried to wiggle his body to free himself, but the vines bound his body tighter instead.
''Ais... Just forget it. It will only make me look despicable if I act like that. He is a good person anyway since he did not abandon me and run away alone when that carnivorous tree targeted me before, so it is not nice for me to treat him like that. Sigh... This is the fault of my previous life''s memories and also my brother who always told me to treat a sincere person with sincerity.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head.
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a bit, but in the end, she still swung her [Frost Swan Sword] several times to cut all of the vines that tied Beiming Chu.
When Tang Li Xue busily released Beiming Chu from the vines, Little Loki already jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder and approached the giant carnivorous tree that had already been chopped down by Tang Li Xue.
Neither Tang Li Xue nor Beiming Chu realized that the giant carnivorous tree was actually still alive!
As one of the treasured trees, the trunk of this giant carnivorous tree could be used as the main material to craft treasured weapons.
The reason for that was because this giant carnivorous tree has enormous vitality, and it was very resilient, so it means that it would not immediately die even after Tang Li Xue chopped it down.
It waited patiently and pretended to die until now while it actually nned tounch a sneak attack on Tang Li Xue when she dropped down her guard and put away her [Frost Swan Sword] back into her space pouchter.
Unfortunately, the giant carnivorous tree''s act still could not fool Little Loki''s third eye.
Nyaaaw~!!!
When the carnivorous tree realized that Little Loki approached it from Little Loki''s voice, the carnivorous tree immediately urged all of its vines to attack Little Loki, Tang Li Xue, and Beiming Chu at once.
However, the giant carnivorous tree instantly fell dreadful as it actually could not move any of its vines!
Apparently, the giant carnivorous tree was already affected by Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]!
Little Loki stared at the helpless giant carnivorous tree, then Little Loki stretched its lips revealing its row of sharp teeth.
Although the giant carnivorous tree did not have any eyes to see Little Loki''s frightening evil grin, but its sense was screaming in horror under Little Loki''s eerie aura.
Then Little Loki opened its tiny mouth widely.
BWOOOOOSSSHH~!!!
A giant carnivorous tree that was taller than one hundred meters was actually sucked into Little Loki''s tiny mouth in one gulp!
After Little Loki swallowed the entire giant carnivorous tree, it licked its lips with a satisfied expression as if it had just eaten a delicious delicacy, then it ran back toward Tang Li Xue and jumped onto her right shoulder.
Little Loki yawned and curled on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder to sleep and digest the energy it got from the giant carnivorous tree.
Meanwhile, Beiming Chu quickly stood up after Tang Li Xue released him from the vines of the carnivorous tree.
Beiming Chu smiled at Tang Li Xue while he stored his sword into his spatial ring and said to Tang Li Xue as he scratched the back of his head in guilt: "Thank you very much, Miss Xue! Ah, I am also very sorry, Miss Xue. I really did not mean to pull you into danger."
"Don''t worry about it. I understand. It is not your fault." Tang Li Xue nodded and smiled back at Beiming Chu.
Beiming Chu blushed hard when he saw Tang Li Xue''s dazzling smile.
He lowered his head and did not dare to stare directly at Tang Li Xue anymore.
When Tang Li Xue saw Beiming Chu''s silly blushing expression, she giggled lightly since his expression felt really familiar.
''This guy... looks a lot like Silly Fox. Sigh... I started to miss Silly Fox, Bingbing, Yaya, and Instructor Mei Lan again. I wonder what they are doing right now...'' Tang Li Xue sighed.
"Eh? Wait a minute... where is that giant tree?" Beiming Chu asked as he stared at the ce where the giant carnivorous tree stood up before.
Tang Li Xue quickly turned around to check it, but she also quickly realized what happened as she red at the sleeping Little Loki on her right shoulder.
But Tang Li Xue still decided to act surprised and said: "How can that carnivorous tree disappear? I see... So, that carnivorous tree must be pretending to be dead when I cut it down!"
"Yes, it should have run away when you tried to release me from its vines before. Sigh... I actually want to y that evil tree to avenge my deadrades. But... Forget it! At least, my otherrades, Miss Chu, and I are still alive now." Beiming Chu murmured while shaking his head in disappointment.
Tang Li Xue quickly shifted the topic and said her farewell to Beiming Chu.
However, Beiming Chu invited Tang Li Xue to join his team instead.
He even generously offered to give her a 50% share of the precious herbs and fruits they will harvest from this herb gardenter.
"50 percent? Are you really sure to give me so much?" Tang Li Xue raised her eyebrow in suspicion.
"Yep, I and myrades will only take 50%, and you can take the other 50%. You can even pick the precious herbs and fruit firstter. How about it? Please, do not refuse my offer, Miss Xue. This is my only way to return your favor for saving my life before." Beiming Chu said while gave fist palm salute to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue did not immediately agree to Beiming Chu''s enticing offer.
She put her slender finger on her chin and started to ponder her options.
The Beiming Chu''s offer might be very attractive since many hands to harvest this herb garden was certainly much faster than only use her two hands.
Moreover, she would get 50% of the harvest... but the risk was also too high for Tang Li Xue.
Beiming Chu might be failed to recognize Tang Li Xue as the one who stole all of their ancient jade emblems before, but it did not mean the other core disciples of the Oracle Mountain Sect would not recognize her too.
If that really happenedter, then Tang Li Xue would be trapped in the middle of enemies like a bird trapped in the cage...
''It is an enticing offer but too dangerous for me to ept. Let''s just refuse it.'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind.
"I am sorry, Brother Beiming, but I have something important I must do as soon as possible." Tang Li Xue tried to politely refuse.
"Something important to do? In this herb garden? But there might be more dangerous creatures living in this herb garden. It is too dangerous for you to travel alone here. What if I apany you to..." Beiming Chu blurted out with a tone filled with worried, but Tang Li Xue quickly interrupted his words.
"No need! Uhh... I mean... I know you must quickly find yourrades first, right? Who knows if yourrades are facing the other dangerous creatures, so you must find them as soon as possible. You do not need to worry about me. I have many means to keep my life. See youter, Brother Beiming!" Tang Li Xue quickly bid farewell to Beiming Chu and dashed toward the deeper area of the Herb Garden.
Beiming Chu still wanted to offer to follow Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue''s slender figure already disappeared under the effect of white fog, tall trees, and bushes.
''Urgh... That guy is so clingy... Even more clingy than Silly Fox!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart as she wiped the cold sweat on her forehead.
She felt quite nervous when she spoke with Beiming Chu because she was afraid that Beiming Chu would suddenly find out about her identity.
But at least, Tang Li Xue had realized something crucial from the previous battle... It seems the current level of her [Art of Concealment] was good enough to remain undetected by the nt such as the previous carnivorous tree.
''Those core disciples of Oracle Mountain Sect would certainly harvest all the precious herbs and fruits from their vicinity first. So, my only option is to head into the deepest part of this Herb Garden. I bet the most precious herbs or fruits should have been hidden in the deepest part of this Herb Garden, just like the herb garden in Asura Demon Sect I rob before.'' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind.
Chapter 463: Horrifying Swamp!
Chapter 463: Horrifying Swamp!
Tang Li Xue increased her speed as she silently activated her [Art of Concealment] and [Snow Dance Step] to travel faster onto the deepest part of Herb Garden.
Her slender figure turned into a sh as she agilely dashed to the right and left to avoid crashing onto the trees.
Sometimes, she also swiftly jumped several times to pass the bushes in front of her.
On her way, Tang Li Xue managed to spot many other carnivorous trees hiding among so many trees in this herb garden.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue did not make any noise,bined with her [Art of Concealment] to hide her breath and aura, those carnivorous trees did not notice Tang Li Xue''s presence at all.
''This herb garden is so dangerous! If I do not have the [Art of Concealment], I will definitely face a lot of trouble right now! Sigh... I doubt those disciples from Oracle Mountain Sect can preserve their life if they enter deeper into this herb garden.'' Tang Li Xue thought as she frowned deeply.
But Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head: ''Whatever... Their life is not my business. Why the hell should I worry about their safety?! I am not even their friend! They should be alright as long as they only harvest the precious herbs on the periphery of this herb garden.''
Tang Li Xue increased her speed as her figure shed toward the deeper part of the herb garden.
After half an hour, she finally managed to pass the creepy forest area and entered the swamp area.
Tang Li Xue quickly halted her step when she saw the swamp area in front of her.
''Urgh... Why is there a swamp here?! I really hate swamp!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart.
Well... since this swamp made her remember the first trial when she wanted to join the Myriad Foxes Academy...
The hungry crocodiles that could pounce out from the swamp and the huge birds that could dive down from the sky at any moment that time greatly traumatized Tang Li Xue.
''No, I bet there is definitely something more dangerous than those hungry crocodiles hiding inside this swamp. Without any protection, this herb garden would have been emptied long ago.'' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind.
In Tang Li Xue''s opinion, there should be something horrible protecting each area of this herb garden.
Perhaps she must even face something more horrible than the previous carnivorous trees the deeper she entered this herb garden.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and gritted her teeth to suppress her uneasiness, then she bravely jumped into the swamp!
[Snow Dance Step]!
The moment Tang Li Xue''s feet stepped into the swamp, the muddy water under her feet was frozen in an instant.
Swooosshh~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure once again swiftly dashed forward toward the deeper part of Herb Garden, but her feet stepped onto the frozen muddy water without sinking into the swamp.
There were actually quite many precious herbs grown in this swamp such as eight thousand years old rainbow Inkberry, five thousand years pure water elemental lily, ten thousand years moon lotus, and so on.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have any free time to harvest them one by one.
Besides that, Tang Li Xue also felt a dreadful vibe from the swamp beneath her feet as if something terrible was observing her move and waiting for her to let down her guard.
But it was not Tang Li Xue''s nature to retreat halfway once she decided to do something, so she only decided to increase her speed to the maximum to quickly pass this spooky swamp area.
The cold aura emitted by Tang Li Xue''s [Snow Dance Step] became colder, and Tang Li Xue''s speed instantly increased more than twice!
Of course, her Qi consumption also doubled right now, but Tang Li Xue did not mind it at all.
''It is worth it as long as I can cross this swamp quicker. I can take some restter after I managed to enter the Herb Garden''s deepest area anyway.'' Tang Li Xue thought as she sighed.
However, when Tang Li Xue arrived in the middle of the swamp area... something unexpected suddenly happened!
SPLAAAASSSHHH~!!! BBOOOOOOOOOOMM~!!!
Many ck shadows suddenly jumped out from the swamp and pounced toward Tang Li Xue from all directions!
''Damn it! I knew it! There should be many hideous things hiding in this swamp! Luckily, I did not let down my guard at all!'' Tang Li Xue cursed as she circted the Qi in her Dantian.
Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palm]!
Tang Li Xue quickly rotated both of her palms to parry their sudden attacks.
Her slender figure immediately turned illusory while both of her hands turned blurry and split into many afterimages when she released her Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palm].
BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG... BANG...
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure spun 360 degrees as she used both of her palms to swiftly pped away those ck shadows.
The slimy feeling she felt from her palms made her extremely disgusted.
Tang Li Xue quickly shook away both of her palms in disgust while groaned: "Eurgh... what are those disgusting slimy things? Swamp snakes? No... Those are... leeches?!"
Those ck shadows were big leeches to be exact since each of their sizes was even bigger than Tang Li Xue''s arm.
Tang Li Xue''s expression immediately turned pale because... the advantage of leeches was never on their size but actually on their overwhelming numbers hidden in the swamp!
''QUICKLY RUN~!!!'' Tang Li Xue''s sharp perception screamed.
Tang Li Xue quickly executed her [Snow Dance Step] again, and she dashed forward with her full speed.
RUMBLE... RUMBLE... RUMBLE... RUMBLE... RUMBLE...
The entire swamp started to tremble violently, and the calm muddy water became tumultuous as if the giant beast that was sleeping within the swamp began to wake up.
Tang Li Xue staggered for a bit, but she quickly stabilized herself and kept sprinting forward to get out from this horrifying swamp as soon as possible.
But Tang Li Xue immediately saw a terrifying scene that made her spine went numb.
A sea of big leeches actually started to emerge out from under the swamp!
They wereing toward Tang Li Xue from all directions as if they wanted to submerge Tang Li Xue and swallow her in one gulp!
''Damn it! This looks bad! What should I do now?!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anxiousness as she took out [Frost Swan Sword] from her space pouch.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spin!
Tang Li Xue raised the [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp as her upper body suddenly spun while her feet still executed [Snow Dance Step] and swiftly took a circr step, then she swung the [Frost Swan Sword] rapidly so times until it created many afterimages.
PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF...
Tang Li Xue cut down so many big leeches around her with the [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp, but there were simply too many big leeches for her to block them all.
In the end, some of them managed to slip past her defense and struck her body.
However, Tang Li Xue instantly activated her [Arcane Tunic]''s Equipment Skill to protect herself right before that happened.
[Arcane Barrier]!
Arcane Barrier: Create a spell shield that reduces the damage taken by half. Duration: 30 Second. Cooldown: 20 minutes.
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
Five big leeches not only heavily struck Tang Li Xue''s slender body, but they also stuck on her arms, legs, and shoulder.
Their sharp fangs sank onto Tang Li Xue''s flesh, then they began to suck her blood.
Tang Li Xue spurt out a mouthful of blood as she took a few steps back.
She also quickly cut down all the big leeches that currently sucking her blood with her [Frost Swan Sword], then she immediately used [Talisman of Regeneration +3] to herself to stop the bleeding and heal her wounds.
Fortunately, she already activated [Arcane Barrier], so her wounds were only skin deep.
But it seems the scent of her blood was so special thanks to her two overpowered bloodlines that it arouse the other big leeches and made them went crazy.
Those big leeches assaulted Tang Li Xue at once from all directions again, but this time, their number was much greater than before.
They looked like a giant ck tsunami that wanted to engulf Tang Li Xue''s small figure.
''Oh, no! Dangerous! This situation... seems to get much worse!'' Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock as she froze in fright and did not know what to do anymore.
Just when the giant ck tsunami created from the countless big leeches almost swallowed Tang Li Xue''s petite body, she immediately used another Equipment Skill from her boots, [Shadow Striders]!
[Shadow sh]!
Tang Li Xue instantly teleported onto the shade of big tree 100 meters from her previous location!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The giant ck tsunami created from the countless big leeches failed to swallow Tang Li Xue, but it became even fiercer than before, and they started to blindly attacking everything around them!
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate and quickly ran as fast as she could from them with her [Snow Dance Step], but the big tree where she teleported before could not run just like her, so it shredded to pieces in an instant.
There was 100 meters distance between Tang Li Xue and the giant ck tsunami of big leeches, but it did not take long for the giant ck tsunami of big leeches to catch up to Tang Li Xue.
Since Tang Li Xue still need to defend herself from the other big leeches that kept attacking her from random directions.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue''s speed was still far from the giant ck tsunami of big leeches since those big leeches clearly could move much faster than her in the swamp, just like fish in the water.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm herself down while muttered to herself: "It seems I do not have any other choice. I can only gamble by using [Perpetual sh] to open the way for myself."
Chapter 464: Life or Death Situation!
Chapter 464: Life or Death Situation!
The giant ck tsunami of big leeches kept getting closer and closer to Tang Li Xue from behind, but Tang Li Xue patiently keptpressing the sharpest sword Qi and sword intent at the [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp.
Just when the giant ck tsunami of big leeches almost caught up to Tang Li Xue and swallowed her, she suddenly stopped running away and turned around to face it.
"You are hungry?! Then eat this, you disgusting things!" Tang Li Xue angrily shouted as she swung down the [Frost Swan Sword] in with all of her might.
[Paragon Sword Technique]... Perpetual sh!
The sharpest sword Qi and sword intent umted at her [Frost Swan Sword] exploded when Tang Li Xue brandished it toward the giant ck tsunami of big leeches!
Tang Li Xue''s sh created a huge swirling sharp des tempest made from the sharpest sword Qi and sword intent.
The huge tempest of sharp des crashed head-on with the giant ck tsunami of big leeches!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] mercilessly tore so many big leeches, but unfortunately, there were too many big leeches and Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] only managed to create a big hole at the giant ck tsunami.
Those big leeches did not eat any blood yet so only ck mucus that sttering out onto the muddy swamp after Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] shredded them.
But the big hole at the center of the giant ck tsunami immediately closed in only a few moments.
Although Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] managed to y hundreds of the big leeches at once, it was only like taking a bucket of water from theke and would not affect them too much.
The power of Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] was devastatingly powerful as usual, but Tang Li Xue exhausted the entire Qi in her Dantian each time she used it.
Currently, Tang Li Xue was breathing heavily in exhaustion, and she felt her consciousness started to get blurred, but the bracelet on her wrist quickly shone with dim blue light, then her exhausted Qi quickly filled up again to normal.
Usually, Tang Li Xue would not even be able to move anymore after she executed her [Perpetual sh], but thankfully, Tang Li Xue already have this [Qi storing Bracelet] now, so she could immediately replenish the exhausted Qi in her Dantian with the Qi that she already stored at her [Qi storing Bracelet] beforehand.
"Woah! This [Qi storing Bracelet] is truly an awesome treasure!" Tang Li Xue eximed in astonishment.
''This [Qi storing celet] can recharge my Qi for three times. So, it means I can use [Perpetual sh] four times before Ipletely exhausted!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she nodded in satisfaction.
Tang Li Xue did not wait for the giant ck tsunami of big leeches to recover, and she already swiftly dashed several tens of meters away from them.
Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] might be terrifyingly powerful, but it could only hold back the giant ck tsunami of big leeches for ten seconds or so.
Those big leeches still did not give up and quickly chased after Tang Li Xue again.
Moreover, that giant ck tsunami of big leeches seems to possess a bit of intelligence because they started to split into several smaller hills and pursuit Tang Li Xue from different directions.
"What are they doing? What stupid leeches! If they split themselves like that, their speed will slow down a lot due to their smaller group size. Whatever... It means I can easily escape from..." Before Tang Li Xue could finish her mocking words, the entire muddy swamp already began to shake again.
RUMBLE... RUMBLE... RUMBLE... RUMBLE... RUMBLE...
Many more big leeches that sleep inside the swamp seem to awaken, and they began to gather into several small ck hills too.
Some of them were approaching from Tang Li Xue''s right and left sides, but most of them were approaching from in front of Tang Li Xue.
While the several smaller hills of big leeches split from the giant ck tsunami kept chasing Tang Li Xue from behind.
"Damn it! I take back my words... So troublesome! There are just too many of them!" Tang Li Xue groaned andined when she saw many small hills of big leeches came toward her from all directions.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she raised the [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp and infused her Qi into it.
Several small hills of big leeches greedily pounced toward Tang Li Xue from all directions to suck her blood, while Tang Li Xue suddenly spun her slender body and swung the [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp rapidly in session.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF... PUFF...
The [Frost Swan Sword] in Tang Li Xue''s grasp easily cut tens of big leeches into pieces at once.
However, there were still so many big leeches that jumped toward her while she only has one sword in her grasp, so some of them managed to pass through Tang Li Xue''s guard and bit onto her flesh.
"Owch! That''s hurt! Don''t touch me, you disgusting things!" Tang Li Xue angrily shouted with a tone filled with disgust as she quickly brandished the [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp again.
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Rapid Quick shes!
This [Rapid Quick shes] was several times much faster than [Repelling Spins], but it was fully focused on offense while [Repelling Spins] was fully focused on defense.
When Tang Li Xue executed this [Rapid Quick shes], she swung the [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp as fast as she could and as much as she could to dealt as much damage to the enemies.
Tang Li Xue cut more and more big leeches that tried to attack her, but their number seems did not decrease at all... On the contrary, their number increased faster than Tang Li Xue could kill.
Little Loki that idly sat on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder all this time already stood up and was ready to assist Tang Li Xue if she fell into a life-threatening dangerous situationter.
Little Loki already wanted to help Tang Li Xue right now, but just thinking of swallowing so many of these disgusting leeches already made Little Loki want to puke.
Well... It might even lose its appetite for several months if he swallowed them...
So, Little Loki, the picky eater, was unwilling to lower itself by swallowing these disgusting leeches, so it decided to wait until thest moment when Tang Li Xue urgently needed its assistance.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue got more and more anxious as the number of big leeches that attacking her kept increasing exponentially.
Tang Li Xue must admit that the current ''divide and conquer'' tactic of these big leeches was greatly overwhelmed her rather than when these big leeches gathered into one giant ck tsunami.
Several big leeches already bit and stuck at her legs, shoulders, and arms.
They refused to let go and kept sucking on Tang Li Xue''s blood until Tang Li Xue cut them off.
But even after Tang Li Xue cut them off, the other big leeches would bit and stuck onto her again.
"This is really bad! They will certainly suck all of my blood until I be a dried corpse if it keeps going on like this. I should quickly get away from here! Urgh..." Tang Li Xue muttered as she gnashed her teeth to suppress her anxiousness.
She kept cutting and repelling away all of the big leeches that attacking her while kept running with her [Snow Dance Step] to pass this horrifying swamp as soon as possible.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue''s body to be riddled with many injuries because of the big leeches'' bite.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue''s excellent equipment such as [Arcane Tunic], [Critical Strikers], and [Shadow Striders] protected some parts of her body.
Her fresh blood was flowing out profusely and dripping onto the muddy swamp, and it made the other hungry big leeches became even more frenzied.
''Please... Hold on a bit longer, my body... Just a bit longer, and we can get out from...'' Tang Li Xue tried to encourage herself to lessen the pain from her wounds, but then she suddenly felt dizzy and weak because her wounds were bleeding too much, and the big leeches were already sucking so much of her blood too.
Tang Li Xue stumbled forward, and she almost dropped her knee to the muddy swamp under her feet that was already frozen because of the effect from [Snow Dance Step].
The countless big leeches that surrounded Tang Li Xue would never miss this moment!
They immediately jumped toward Tang Li Xue at once andpletely drowned Tang Li Xue''s slender figure in one move!
CRACK... CRACK... CRACK... CRACK... CRACK...
The frozen water under Tang Li Xue''s feet could no longer support thebined weight of Tang Li Xue and those big leeches.
SPLOOOOSSSSHHHH~!!!
Tang Li Xue fell onto the muddy water as her slender figure was wrapped by so many big leeches from head to toe.
''Is this the end? Am I going to die here?'' Tang Li Xue thought as her consciousness started to be blurry.
Little Loki still frowned in unwillingness, but it finally opened its mouth when it sensed that Tang Li Xue almost lost her consciousness, and many big leeches already started to bite her flesh to suck her blood.
Just when Little Loki wanted to devour all big leeches into its mouth, something unexpected suddenly happened!
Little Loki suddenly sensed a terrifying aura exploded out from Tang Li Xue as she slowly opened her topaz blue eyes again, so Little Loki decided to wait for a while and see what Tang Li Xue would do next in this crucial situation.
Actually, Tang Li Xue suddenly felt her consciousness became clear in that instant. Even Tang Li Xue did not know the reason why it happened.
A faint white light was shining from the deepest of Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes as she slowly thought: ''What is this? Why are there so many white lines?''
In front of Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes, there were so many white lines.
Each of those white lines seems toe out from every big leech.
The countless white linesing from countless big leeches were connected and congregated into one ce.
Chapter 465: The Might of [Soul Slaying Sword]!
Chapter 465: The Might of [Soul ying Sword]!
''Eh... This is the effect of my [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline! But... what are those? white threads?'' Tang Li Xue thought as she suddenly felt the cool sensation from her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline.
The effect of [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline was still the same as before.
It made Tang Li Xue''s mind felt a lot calmer and cool. So, she could think a lot faster and became more focused.
The scene in front of her topaz blue eyes also slowed down a lot slower than usual, as if everything she saw was moving in slow motion.
But Tang Li Xue did not see these white threads thest time her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline activated...
Then Tang Li Xue quickly realized that her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline was actually connected to something inside her mind, and it kept profusely draining her mental energy.
Tang Li Xue immediately checked what was draining her mental energy and found out that the culprit was actually the tiny transparent sword floating at the center of her sea of consciousness.
''So, those white threads are the effect of this tiny sword? What is that for? Erm... If I am not wrong, that tomb owner''s soul called it [Soul ying Sword]. Soul ying... Don''t tell me all of these white threads are the souls of those disgusting leeches?! So, I can kill all of them if I cut all of those white threads with the tiny sword?'' Under the effect of her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline, Tang Li Xue''s mind was moving quickly to deduce everything.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue knew her limit very well, so she shook her head and thought: ''That is impossible to do. I can only barely use this [Soul ying Sword]''s ability with the help of my [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline.''
''I probably can only wield this [Soul ying Sword] once, then I will probably deplete all of my mental energy after that and passed out. There is no way I can y all of them in one strike, so I will definitely die after I passed outter.'' Tang Li Xue pondered her next action carefully.
''But if I did not do anything to get out from this crucial situation, these leeches will suck all of my blood soon. Then I will pass out and died too... sigh... What a dilemma...'' Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation.
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to gamble and use the [Soul ying Sword] even though she must deplete all of her mental energy by doing that.
Tang Li Xue focused her mind on the [Soul ying Sword] that floating at the center of her sea of consciousness.
WEEEEEEENGG~!!!
The [Soul ying Sword] trembled violently as if it wanted to break away from Tang Li Xue''s control.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and shouted telepathically toward the [Soul ying Sword]: ''Shut up little thing! You are sitting inside my mind and keep feeding on my mental energy all this time! So, it means you are mine from now on, and you must listen to my every order!''
After scolding the [Soul ying Sword], Tang Li Xue could feel that its resistance seemed decreased by a lot, but it still trembled slightly as if it was still unwilling to listen to the master much weaker than itself.
Tang Li Xue did not care about the [Soul ying Sword]''s feeling and reluctance as she immediately urged the [Soul ying Sword] to fly out from her mind.
It was truly hard for the current Tang Li Xue to control the [Soul ying Sword]. It was like a child trying to ride a powerful unicorn.
But her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline acted like a tight rein that assisted her to control the [Soul ying Sword].
"UOOOOHHHH~!!! GO, CUT THEM ALL!" Tang Li Xue bellowed out loud as she swung her right hand with great difficulty.
The [Soul ying Sword] followed the movement of Tang Li Xue''s right hand as it shed out from Tang Li Xue''s forehead, and its target was... the ce where all of the white threads connected and congregated!
The [Soul ying Sword] flew so swiftly without creating any sound or ripple in the water, added with its transparent form, the [Soul ying Sword] waspletely undetected.
Moreover, the [Soul ying Sword] was a spirit weapon, so it could moving unhindered in the water and passed through any solid material or defense, then cut the target''s soul directly without being hindered by the target''s body, so it would be futile even if the target has a sturdy body.
Currently, the [Soul ying Sword] shed very swiftly like a lightning bolt toward the ce where all of the white threads connected and congregated while cutting all the white threads on its path.
PPPUUUUFFFF~!!!
The [Soul ying Sword] easily severed all of the white threads that connected and congregated together!
After that, the [Soul ying Sword] flew back toward Tang Li Xue and entered back into Tang Li Xue''s forehead.
The [Soul ying Sword] was floating back on the top of Tang Li Xue''s sea of consciousness, but it looked much weaker and fragile than before.
It seems Tang Li Xue would not be able to use this [Soul ying Sword] in a short time until it recovered from its weakened state.
Tang Li Xue did not have any time to look at the result of her desperate attack using the [Soul ying Sword] as her consciousness became blurry, and she passed out again.
Little Loki sensed that Tang Li Xue lost her consciousness again since her mental energy waspletely spent.
Little Loki tapped its small furry paw onto Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder and teleported out from inside the swamp with her.
Of course, Little Loki''s teleport was not powerful enough to bring both of them out from the swamp area, so Little Loki only brought Tang Li Xue to the top of the giant tree near them.
Tang Li Xueid down on one of the branches of the giant tree while Little Loki sat on the top of her slender body.
With one blow of its breath, Little Loki dried Tang Li Xue''s wet clothes in an instant, then it decided to patiently wait for Tang Li Xue until she recovered her mental energy and regained her consciousness.
After checking and making sure that Tang Li Xue was all right, Little Loki nced back at the swamp below the giant tree.
Countless big leeches were floating on the swamp water.
Their number was so many that they dyed the entire surface of swamp water with their ck color.
But all of them could no longer move or threaten Tang Li Xue anymore since they were already dead.
Even Little Loki was very surprised at the might of Tang Li Xue''s [Soul ying Sword], and it subconsciously licked its lips while wondering what was the taste of that tiny transparent sword... It should be delicious, right?
Unfortunately, the [Soul ying Sword] already merged with Tang Li Xue''s soul, so Little Loki could not eat it, or Tang Li Xue''s soul would suffer a heavy bacsh.
.....
...
After a few days, Tang Li Xue finally recovered some of her mental energy and slowly woke up from her deep slumber.
"Shhhh... Ow~ Ow~ Ow~ My head~!" Tang Li Xue held her head while hissing in pain.
Tang Li Xue almost slipped from the branch and fell from the tree because of a head-splitting headache and dizziness.
Her terrible headache was the side effect of using her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline to use the power beyond her limit.
But she quickly forgot her terrible headache when she saw the swamp filled with countless dead big ck leeches.
"Oh... My... God... All of them died? What the hell has happened? Who kill them?" Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw and murmured in shock.
Little Loki pointed its tiny furry paw at Tang Li Xue herself.
"Eh, what do you say? ME?! I am the one who killed them all?! How can it be?! Are you kidding me? I do not even do anything... err... wait a minute... I vaguely remember that I do something, but I cannot remember it clearly." Tang Li Xue muttered in confusion while rubbed her forehead to ease her head-splitting headache and dizziness.
Yes, Tang Li Xue wielded the [Soul ying Sword] in a half-conscious state before under the effect of her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline, so she could not remember what she had done before really clearly.
Anyway, Tang Li Xue sighed in relief since she was still alive right now, and she could also pass this swamp area without any need to face the threat of these big leeches anymore.
Although Tang Li Xue still have a great headache and dizziness, but her Qi and stamina were already in optimum condition after a few days of rest, so she decided to continue her way.
For some unknown reason, this swamp area still gave her an eerie and unsettling feeling, so she wanted to pass this swamp area as soon as possible.
Tang Li Xue executed her [Snow Dance Step] as she jumped down from the giant tree''s branch.
Her slender figurended gracefully on the muddy swamp, and the muddy swamp water instantly froze when Tang Li Xue''s feet touched it.
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate and swiftly dashed forward with her full speed.
"Urgh... I hate the slimy feeling when I stepped on these dead leeches... It feels so disgusting!" Tang Li Xue groaned in disgust, but she did not slow down her speed at all.
Even with Tang Li Xue''s speed with her [Snow Dance Step], she still needed a few hours to pass the vast swamp area.
Tang Li Xue felt relieved when she finally stepped out from the swamp, and her feetnded on the grassy solid ground.
Tang Li Xue kept sprinting even after she passed the swamp area, while Little Loki that sat leisurely on her right shoulder as usual squinted its third eye as it stared back at the swamp behind Tang Li Xue.
BLURP... BLURP... BLURP... BLURP... BLURP...
The giant eyes slowly emerged from the bottom of the swamp and red at Tang Li Xue from behind.
The giant eyes'' re silently shed with Little Loki''s stare for a few moments.
Tang Li Xue got farther and farther from the swamp, but Little Loki and the giant eyes kept ring at each other.
In the end, the giant eyes submerged again into the bottom of the swamp without doing anything.
.....
Tang Li Xue thought she would enter the forest again after she passed from the swamp area, but no... she actually entered the flower field this time.
The countless colorful flowers under the starry night sky were truly breathtakingly beautiful.
Even Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and decided to stop running to admire the amazingly beautiful scenery in front of her for a while.
Chapter 466: Flower Fairies!
Chapter 466: Flower Fairies!
"This ce is so beautiful..." Tang Li Xue murmured with a tone filled with admiration as she observed the breathtaking scenery around her in amazement.
Every beautiful flower in this flower field was emitting a different color of dim light.
Crimson, violet, yellow, blue, white, green, pink, orange...
It was a truly magnificent scene to behold.
Just one nce, Tang Li Xue could easily guess that all of the flowers in this flower field were very precious herbs.
On the contrary to Tang Li Xue''s rxed attitude, Little Loki had frowned its third eye deeply in worry instead.
"Woah, all of these flowers are so lovely. It would be a pity to pluck and eat them. Hmmm... Maybe I should just rent them in my courtyard at Myriad Foxes Academyter." Tang Li Xuespoke as she squatted down to pick some beautiful glowing flowers.
But something suddenly unexpected happened before Tang Li Xue could touch the beautiful glowing flowers!
Something small swiftly jumped out from inside that beautiful flower!
Tang Li Xue instantly jumped backward in surprise, and she quickly took out her [Frost Swan Sword] from her space pouch.
Just when Tang Li Xue wanted to attack that small creature with her [Frost Swan Sword], she immediately halted her attack as she saw the familiar small creature in front of her.
A palm-sized girl with a pair of wings fluttering behind her back was like two pink flower petals, and she wore a pink dress made from pink flower petals.
The appearance of this palm-sized small girl was forty to fifty percent identical to Yaya.
"You are... a fairy? No... To be exact, you are a flower fairy, right?" Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise as she asked the small flower fairy in front of her.
Tang Li Xue stepped closer to the small flower fairy to observe her closer, but the small flower fairy puffed her cheek in displeasure as she red at Tang Li Xue with anger.
It seems the little fairy was angry at Tang Li Xue since Tang Li Xue interrupted her rest.
Then the little flower fairy took a deep breath and blew it toward Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue dropped her guard since the little flower fairy looked harmless and has some simrities with Yaya, so she did not expect that the docile-looking little flower fairy would suddenly attack her like this.
Tang Li Xue immediately wanted to keep her distance from the little flower fairy, but unfortunately, she was a bit toote since she already inhaled some breath from the flower fairy.
Tang Li Xue instantly felt dizzy and weak. Her slender body was swaying to the left and right.
It seems the flower fairy''s breath contained some poison.
Although the poison was not lethal, but it could weaken Tang Li Xue for some time.
The flower fairy took the chance when Tang Li Xue was dizzy and weak, then charged toward her.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue''s [Imperial Moon Fox] and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline immediately neutralized the poison, and she felt refreshed in an instant.
When Tang Li Xue saw the flower fairy swiftly charged toward her, she subconsciously defended herself by swinging her palm and pping away the flower fairy.
PLAAAAAAAACKK~!!!
The flower fairy was thrown off several meters by Tang Li Xue''s p, then she fell on the top of another flower.
The flower fairy was dumbfounded for a few moments before her eyes became teary, and she began to bawl out loud.
"Oops... Uh... I am sorry... But that is not my fault, okay! That is your fault for suddenly attacking me! Little One, I did not mean to hurt you, and I am not your enemy. I am just passing by here. So, you must not unreasonably attack me again, okay? Or I will not hesitate to spank your butt to punish you." Tang Li Xue warned the bawling flower fairy with a gentle tone.
However, the tiny flower fairy kept bawling loudly as if she did not hear Tang Li Xue''s words.
After a few whiles, several flower buds started to bloom, and then several other flower fairies with different colors were flying out from those flowers.
The tiny flower fairy that Tang Li Xue pped was pink, while these several flower fairies have different colors such as light blue, purple, yellow, and so on, but their form was identical to the pink flower fairy.
"Eh? There are so many flower fairies! I see... So, this flower field is the habitation of flower fairies!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
The pink flower fairy spoke to herrades withnguage that Tang Li Xue could not understand, but the pink flower fairy kept pointing her small index finger toward Tang Li Xue with a wronged expression as if she was bullied by Tang Li Xue just now.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned darker since the direction of the current situation seems unfavorable for her.
Just like Tang Li Xue had guessed, the several flower fairies angrily red at Tang Li Xue while scolding her with theirnguage.
Tang Li Xue could not understand what they were talking about, but she could guess that these flower fairies seemed to be very angry toward her.
"I... I really do not mean any harm! The previous incident is just an ident, and your friend is the one attacking me first! I swear that I am just passing by here! Understand?" Tang Li Xue tried to exin while moved both of her hands like she was using signnguage for the flower fairies to easily understand her intention.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s action was only made the situation worsened since the flower fairies thought that Tang Li Xue was mocking them.
The flower fairies scolded Tang Li Xue louder while waved their tiny hands as if they wanted to chase her out from their home.
"Err... I know, I know... You all want me to get out from here as soon as possible, right? But Ie from here, while my destination is there." Tang Li Xue spoke while pointed behind her, then she pointed her index finger in the direction across the flower field in the end.
The flower fairies became angrier since they thought Tang Li Xue wanted to invade their home since Tang Li Xue pointed at the flower field in the end.
The several tiny flower fairies turned into several shes as they flew swiftly to surround Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue instantly knew that her persuasion has failed, so she immediately raised her vignce to the maximum and raised the [Frost Swan Sword] in her grasp to defend herself.
The several tiny flower fairies blew their poisonous breath toward Tang Li Xue to weaken her first, but the pink flower fairy quickly warned herrades that Tang Li Xue was actually immune to their poison.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue felt dizzy and weak again, but her [Imperial Moon Fox] and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline immediately negated the poison''s effect from the flower fairies.
The several tiny flower fairies also acted fast by changing their battle strategy.
This time, the several flower fairies that were flying swiftly and kept encircling Tang Li Xue started to emit mysterious light from their tiny bodies.
Tang Li Xue really did not want to hurt these cute-looking flower fairies.
Tang Li Xue could also sense that these flower fairies were actually not evil, and they only attacked her because they thought that Tang Li Xue will invade their home, so she decided to only block their attack for now.
But of course, Tang Li Xue would not hesitate to retaliate or even y these flower fairies if she did not have any other choice, or if she felt her life was threatened.
"Damn it! Stop it! I only want to..." Tang Li Xue shouted with an aggravated tone to exin her intention, but before she could finish her words... Tang Li Xue suddenly found herself was thrown into a vast ocean.
"What?! How could this be?! Where am I? Is this teleportation?! They teleported me away from their ce?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise and disbelief.
However, she immediately sensed something was not right.
"This feeling... is the same as thest trial to enter Myriad Foxes Academy, that Bridge of Sincerity trial! So, this is only an illusion?! What a powerful illusion?! I can even feel this water temperature and the heat of the sun!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a startled tone when she realized it.
Tang Li Xue''s guess was correct.
This was the ability of the flower fairies, [Illusion Domain].
Different from Wind Elemental Spirit like Yaya, the flower fairies were born from several hundred thousand years old flowers.
The flower fairy was actually really rare since several hundred thousand years old flowers would immediately be picked and used as pill ingredients before the flower could mature or they might wilt before they could be flower fairies.
The flower fairy might do not have powerful offensive skills like Wind Elemental Spirit, but they could use powerful poison to disable their enemies, and their [Illusion Domain] was even more powerful since they could even burn or drown their enemies using it.
Unfortunately for those flower fairies, their powerful [Illusion Domain] was destined to be useless against Tang Li Xue since Tang Li Xue has a treasure that couldpletely counter any illusion type ability.

Chapter 467: Pacifying the Flower Fairies!
"Hehehe... Thanks to this ring ne, I can detect any illusion, and I can also easily get out of it anytime I want! Thankfully, I can take this ring ne back from that pervert Elder Yang." Tang Li Xue smiled full of confidence as she patted her chest to touch the ring ne she wore on her neck.
Then Tang Li Xue began to close her eyes and focused her mind.
RUMBLE... RUMBLE... RUMBLE... RUMBLE... RUMBLE...
The surrounding ocean scene shook greatly, and many cracks started to spread as if the space around Tang Li Xue would copse.
BAAAAAAAAAANNNGGG~!!!
With one thought, Tang Li Xue easily broke the powerful [Illusion Domain] set by several Flower Fairies!
The several Flower Fairies that surrounded Tang Li Xue received a bacsh since Tang Li Xue forcefully broke out from their [Illusion Domain], and they got thrown off backward, then fell onto the flower field.
The several Flower Fairies were heavily injured by the bacsh, and their faces turned pale like white paper, but they did not cough out any blood at all, maybe because the flower fairy was born from the flower, so they did not bleed like beast or human.
But the several flower fairies gotpletely frightened by Tang Li Xue. They stared at Tang Li Xue while trembling in fear as if they were watching a scary monster.
Their frightened pale expression made Tang Li Xue felt a bit guilty, so she tried to say something tofort the heavily injured flower fairies: "Err... I am sorry, I swear I really did not mean to hurt you all... Are you all right?"
The colorful eyes of the several flower fairies became teary...
WAAAAAAA~!!! WAAAAAAA~!!! WAAAAAAA~!!!
Then they started to bawl out loud like the first pink flower faeries...
Tang Li Xue: "....."
''Why do I feel like I was just bullying a group of kindergarten kids? No, no, no... It is not my fault, okay?! They are clearly the ones who attacked me first!'' Tang Li Xue thought as her expression turned darker while scratched the back of her head in frustration since she did not know what to do anymore.
Little Loki, who sat on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder, only rolled its third eye while staring at the whiny flower fairies in disdain.
''Eh, wait a minute... Kindergarten kids?! That is right! Since they are acting like a bunch of naughty children, then I should just treat them like kindergartners.'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes turned brighter as she took out several candies from her space pouch.
These candies were actually prepared by Tang Li Xue to cheer Yaya up when Yaya became restless or sulking.
"All right, you all please stop crying, okay? Look, big sister has something delicious for all of you. I am sure all of you will like it." Tang Li Xue said as she put a gentle smile on her beautiful face while approached the bawling flower fairies and offered them the candies on the top of her palm.
Several flower fairies stopped crying out loud, then they stared at the candies on Tang Li Xue''s palm with eyes filled with curiosity.
However, something unexpected happened before the several flower fairies could take or taste Tang Li Xue''s candies.
BBWWOOOOOOOOOSSHHH~!!!
Tang Li Xue suddenly felt a terrifying pressure pressed upon her slender body and made her breath stagnant.
Even the expression of rxed Little Loki immediately became solemn as it stood on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder and prepared to assist Tang Li Xue if she got attacked.
"What the hell is this?! This overwhelming pressure... Oppressing aura... There is something horribleing here! Not good! I must get out from here as soon as possible!" Tang Li Xue murmured with a trembling voice as she prepared to run as fast as she could while turned her head toward the direction where the terrifying pressureing from to check.
Unfortunately, it was already toote for Tang Li Xue to flee from there as the owner of the terrifying pressure already floating near Tang Li Xue.
The terrifying pressure was actuallying from another flower fairy.
But this flower fairy was as tall as Tang Li Xue, and she wore a rainbow-colored flower dress and flower petal crown on the top of her head.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized the identity of this flower fairy in one nce...
The queen of flower fairies!
This queen of flower fairies might be not as powerful as Yaya''s mother, the queen of Wind Fairy... but her strength was certainly more than enough to crush the current Tang Li Xue in one attack!
Tang Li Xue did not dare to flee again since the queen of flower fairies could instantly appear near her, then it means that the speed of this queen of flower fairies was surely much faster than her.
Several flower fairies immediately flew toward the queen of flower fairies like a group of spoiled children ran toward their mother.
Then the several flower fairies talked to the queen of flower fairies with thenguage that Tang Li Xue could not understand while pointed their tiny index fingers toward Tang Li Xue.
It seems the several flower fairies informed Tang Li Xue''s bad behavior toward them to the queen of flower fairies.
Tang Li Xue did not want the queen of flower fairies to misunderstand her intention, so she immediately stepped forward and tried to exin her intention to the queen of flower fairies.
"Ehehehe... Hi Fairy Older Sister, you are so beautiful... I am Tang Li Xue. I am just passing through here. I aming from there, and I want to go there. Do you understand?" Cold sweat poured out from Tang Li Xue''s forehead in nervousness. She put on her kindest smile and exined to the queen of flower fairies with a polite tone while adding some signnguage using her hands so the queen of flower fairies could easier understand her intention.
Fortunately, the queen of flower fairies was much more mature and wise than the kindergarten flower fairies. She did not unreasonably attack Tang Li Xue like the immature flower fairies.
The queen of flower fairies observed Tang Li Xue with eyes filled with curiosity. It seems the queen of flower fairies never saw a human, so Tang Li Xue was the first person she ever saw until now, and she was very curious about Tang Li Xue.
The queen of flower fairies flew closer to Tang Li Xue to observe Tang Li Xue closer, while Tang Li Xue could only endure it as she really did not dare to more or run carelessly.
Sniff... Sniff... Sniff...
The queen of flower fairies began to fly around Tang Li Xue while sniffed at Tang Li Xue.
''Err... What the hell is this queen doing? Why is she sniffing me? Does she have a smell fetish or something? Oh, no... This is bad! I never take a bath after I went out of the Myriad Foxes Academy! Will she kill me if I smell bad?'' Tang Li Xue anxiously thought as she became more nervous.
Most cultivators would actually not take a bath anymore since they could easily clean themselves using their Qi or some simple spell.
But Tang Li Xue usually brought her habits from her previous life, and she always took a bath twice a day when she was staying in Myriad Foxes Academy.
Of course, she did not have any time to take a bath after she went out from Myriad Foxes Academy since she was rushing toward this Inheritance Ground Tablet before and fought in so many fierce battles after she entered the Inheritance Ground Tablet until now, so she did not take any bath and only clean herself using her Qi until now.
Well... To be exact, there was no clean water or bathroom here, or Tang Li Xue would surely already take a bath...
Actually, Tang Li Xue''s body did not smell bad at all. On contrary, her slender body has an intoxicating feminine sweet-scented. It was the characteristic of [Imperial Moon Fox] as the most captivating fox kind.
Tang Li Xue did not know that the queen of flower fairies actually has the ability to perceive the nature of any creature from their smell.
After sniffing at Tang Li Xue for a few moments, the queen of flower fairies seemed to have a good opinion of Tang Li Xue since she smiled kindly and nodded at Tang Li Xue.
The queen of flower fairies instantly knew that Tang Li Xue was a good person without any malice, and Tang Li Xue also did not have any intention to hurt any flower fairies at all.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw the kind smile from the queen of flower fairies.
Tang Li Xue quickly smiled and nodded back at the queen of flower fairies.
But the kind smile from the queen of flower fairies immediately turned into a frown and loathe when she saw Little Loki on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder.
Little Loki also red back toward the queen of flower fairies while sneered in disdain.
Tang Li Xue became confused about what happened, and she instantly has a bad feeling about this.
''Damn... Oh,e on! Everything will be okay, right? This fairy queen can sense Little Loki''s hidden evil aura? This big boss fairy queen will not bully a little cub like Little Loki, right?'' Tang Li Xue worriedly thought.
''Little Loki is also really... Haih... Why the hell does it needs to provoke such a terrifying creature like that fairy queen?! Sigh...'' Tang Li Xue grumbled in frustration.
Chapter 468: A Huge Gift!
Chapter 468: A Huge Gift!
The queen of flower fairies and Little Loki kept staring at each other with loathing expressions.
Even Tang Li Xue could faintly sense the thick aura of hostility between the two.
Tang Li Xue felt even more nervous for each passing second, and even her heartbeat became erratic.
Then Tang Li Xue raised her right hand and wiped the cold sweat on her forehead.
When Tang Li Xue wiped her forehead with her sleeve, the queen of flower fairies stopped staring at Little Loki, but the fairy queen curiously stared at the candies in Tang Li Xue''s right-hand grasp.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized that the fairy queen stared at her right now, and she became extremely tense.
Tang Li Xue stopped wiping her cold sweat and lowered her right hand, but the fairy queen''s stare kept following the candies in Tang Li Xue''s right hand.
Tang Li Xue also nced at her right hand and finally realized that she was still holding some candies in her grasp.
''Eh? Don''t tell me this fairy queen wants... to try this candy?'' Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise.
"Err... This is candy. It is sweet and delicious. Do you want to try it?" Tang Li Xue said with a smiling expression as she offered the several candies in her right hand to the fairy queen.
The queen of flower fairies hesitated for a while. It seems the fairy queen became wary toward Tang Li Xue because of the hidden evil aura from Little Loki but she still took one candy on Tang Li Xue''s palm.
After taking the candy from Tang Li Xue, the queen of flower fairies curiously observed the candy closer.
Tang Li Xue felt the queen of flower fairies still did not understand her words, so she decided to take one candy and popped it into her mouth to show that the candy was actually some kind of food.
The queen of flower fairies hesitated again and sniffed the candy for some time.
The Tang Li Xue''s candies were actually candied fruit.
It was made from some small sour or sweet fruit simr to cherry or date fruit, then dipped into sugar, syrup, and honey.
When the queen of flower fairies sniffed the candy, the fragrant sweet scent of fruit, honey, and sugar was enticing her taste buds.
The queen of flower fairies licked the candy first to taste it, and her expression turned into joy, then she also put the candy into her mouth.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief at first, then she wanted tough out loud when she saw the fairy queen''s blissful expression.
Of course, she did not dare tough in front of the fairy queen''s face since she was afraid that the fairy queen thought that she was mocking the fairy queen.
The other small flower fairies also curiously approached Tang Li Xue when they saw the blissful expression on the fairy queen''s face.
Tang Li Xue smiled gently at them and gave candy to each of them.
When the small flower fairies tasted Tang Li Xue''s candies, they instantly fell in love with it, and their expression also turned blissful.
After a few moments, the queen of flower fairies had finished eating the candy, and her blissful expression turned into frustration, then she stared pitifully at Tang Li Xue as if she was asking for more candy.
Tang Li Xueughed for real this time, then she took a small bag filled with candies and gave it to the fairy queen.
The fairy queen''s beautiful eyes shone brightly when she saw a bag of candies. She took it from Tang Li Xue, then bowed a bit to show her gratitude.
"Ahahaha... No need to be polite. A bag of candy is actually pretty cheap. Ah, right... But you have always lived here, so you probably cannot buy them outside." Tang Li Xue suddenly felt sad for this fairy queen and flower fairies, since they might stay in this Inheritance Ground Tablet forever.
The fairy queen suddenly vanished from Tang Li Xue''s view for a few moments, then she appeared again with [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] in her hand and offered it to Tang Li Xue.
"Eh? This is for me?" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
The fairy queen nodded with a kind smile on her face.
"But... this flower looks so precious. It is surely a thousand times more precious than a bag of candy. I... I cannot ept this." Tang Li Xue hesitated and tried to refuse the [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower].
If she epted this [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] for a bag of candy, then she would feel like a swindler that exchanging a copper coin with a spirit stone.
But the fairy queen seems to not mind it at all and kept pushing the [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue reluctantly epted the [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] since the fairy queen kept insisted for Tang Li Xue to ept it.
The fairy queen nodded in satisfaction after Tang Li Xue epted the [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] and stored it in her space pouch.
Tang Li Xue felt guilty since she felt as if she had just scammed the fairy queen, so she took every kind of food in her space pouch and let the fairy queen and little flower fairies tasted them.
Then Tang Li Xue found out that the fairy queen and flower fairies could not eat meat, but they really like sweets such as candies, cakes, and fruits.
After learned about that, Tang Li Xue gave them all the cakes and fruits she stored in her space pouch.
The fairy queen happily epted them.
After ying and eating together with the beautiful fairy queen and cute tiny flower fairies for a few hours, Tang Li Xue bid farewell to them and continued her journey.
The fairy queen and tiny flower fairies even escorted Tang Li Xue to pass the flower field.
Tang Li Xue waved her hand to them and used her [Snow Dance Step] to hastily dash deeper to the herb garden.
No, it should have been called herb valley since the size of this herb garden was too big to be called a ''garden''.
"Fiuhhh... That is really scary. Luckily, that flower fairy queen is gentle and kind. Unlike wind fairy queen that looks cold and unapproachable." Tang Li Xue muttered while sighed in relief.
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly grabbed Little Loki that sat on her right shoulder and scolded it: "Little Loki~! How could you provoke such a terrifying fairy queen?! You cannot do it like that again next time, okay?"
Nyaaaww~!!!
Little Loki pouted and turned away its furry head. It seems Little Loki did not want to follow Tang Li Xue''s words.
''Obviously, she was the one who started first. Why should I be the one that gives in?!'' Little Loki thought as it rolled its third eye.
Little Loki was Tao Tie, the king of Four Evil Fiend Beasts, so how could he lower his head to an inferior creature born from a mere flower like that flower fairy queen?!
In the end, Tang Li Xue was the one that decided to yield and said: "You... Sigh... How can you be so rebellious?! Forget it... You just need to pretend to sleep if we are in a simr situation next time. How about it? You can do it, right?"
Little Loki ignored Tang Li Xue and yawned, then it jumped out from Tang Li Xue''s grasp andnded on her right shoulder.
Little Loki curled its tiny furry body and went asleep.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
''All right, I assume that you agree with my idea.'' Tang Li Xue sighed again in resignation.
.....
After passed through the flower field, Tang Li Xue entered the vast meadow.
There was still white fog that faintly hindering her vision, but at least, Tang Li Xue could still see much clearer in this vast meadow since there were no big trees or thick bushes that blocking in front of her.
Tang Li Xue could also run faster in this vast meadow without being afraid of being bumped into something or being ambushed by some beasts.
However, Tang Li Xue felt even more insecure in this vast meadow instead rather than in the forest, swamp, or flower field.
Actually, there were many precious herbs in this vast meadow, but Tang Li Xue ignored all of them since her sharp sense warned her of some intense danger that woulde to her anytime.
Just when Tang Li Xue wanted to increase her speed to maximum...
Little Loki suddenly hooked its tail onto Tang Li Xue''s neck and jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s shoulder.
"What are you..." Tang Li Xue wanted to ask what Little Loki want to do in confusion, but she suddenly felt that she was pulled down by something heavy until she fell onto the grassy ground and lied down there.
Normally, Little Loki would not be able to pull Tang Li Xue down with its negligible weight, but Little Loki used a gravity ability it got from eating the treasured sword in Crystal Pce Tomb.
When Tang Li Xue almost lost her temper and scold Little Loki for its naughty deed, Little Loki suddenly covered Tang Li Xue''s pink lips with its paw while used its other paw to point upward.
Tang Li Xue still felt confused, but she still decided to shut up and followed Little Loki''s paw, then stared upward.
Tang Li Xue''s pupil shrank in horror when she saw something huge was flying in the sky.
Chapter 469: Critical Head-On Clash!
Chapter 469: Critical Head-On sh!
Tang Li Xue could not see the huge figure very clearly since it was flying under the starry night sky.
Tang Li Xue also could not sense any aura or pressure from the huge figure since it was flying so high in the sky, but her hunch made her heart palpitated in horror.
It might be because of her high Spirit Stat. Tang Li Xue''s sense of danger was very sharp, and her sense of danger kept screaming in fear when Tang Li Xue stared at the huge figure in the sky.
''What the hell is that creature?! A bird? A flying beast? Or maybe a flying puppet? No matter what creature it is, I am pretty sure that creature is much more dangerous and stronger than even the queen of flower fairies!'' Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she carefully observed the huge creature that was flying above her.
Tang Li Xue had already seen all guardians of each previous area, and she guessed that this huge flying creature should be the guardian of this meadow area.
Then the huge flying figure suddenly took a nosedive from the night sky toward where Tang Li Xue lied down!
"Oh, crap! It managed to find us!" Tang Li Xue eximed with an anxious tone as she quickly activated her [Snow Dance Step].
Her slender figure turned into a sh as she sprinted with her full speed to flee from the huge creature''s chasing.
Tang Li Xue already used her [Art of Concealment] to hide her breath and aura, but it seems the huge creature has a very sharp pair of eyes.
There was no big tree or bushes for Tang Li Xue to hide in this vast meadow, so the huge creature could easily spot Tang Li Xue even when it was flying so high in the sky.
Tang Li Xue''s speed with [Slow Dance Step] was very fast, but the speed of that flying creature was much faster than hers.
Like an experienced eagle that hunting for a rabbit, the huge flying creature dived down so fast from the sky, and it only took one moment for the huge flying creature to catch up with Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue immediately ducked and rolled down on the grassy ground, then she kept lying down to avoid the flying creature''s assault.
Right after Tang Li Xue ducked down, the swift flying creature passed right above Tang Li Xue, but it only managed to touch a few strands of Tang Li Xue''s long silky silver hair.
Those few strands of Tang Li Xue''s long silky silver hair were cut off in an instant to several pieces.
"Damn! If I ducked down too slow just now, that creature would surely take my head off!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise as she quickly raised her head to observe what kind of creature that attacked her right now.
It was a white-feathered giant owl...
Each of its feathers was shining with dim silver light like the moonlight. It might look beautiful, but each of them ?was very sharp and could cut through anything easily.
Tang Li Xue still could not sense any pressure or aura from this white-feathered giant owl, but her keen sense of danger kept screaming and warned her that this white-feathered giant owl was very dangerous.
RUN AWAY~!!!
Tang Li Xue immediately used her [Snow Dance Step] to flee as quickly as possible from the white-feathered giant owl.
She even add [Supreme Speed Sword Style] burst speed, and her slender figure turned into a sh as she moved away swiftly from the white-feathered giant owl.
But the speed of the white-feathered giant owl was many times higher than even Tang Li Xue''s highest burst speed.
When Tang Li Xue tried to distance herself from the white-feathered giant owl, it already turned around and flew very swiftly toward Tang Li Xue again.
"How the hell it can move so fast with that giant fat body?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth anxiously as her mind began to move quickly to find a way out from this dire situation.
Tang Li Xue already started to miss her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] very much.
If only she could use either [Ethereal Form] or [Eclipse of Desire], then she surely could escape this white-feathered giant owl.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue could not use any of her divine abilities or regalia here in Inheritance Ground Tablet...
The white-feathered giant owl was moving so fast, and it already appeared above Tang Li Xue when Tang Li Xue still tried to flee from it, then it pped its steel-like wings and descended while bared its huge silver ws toward Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s expression became more solemn as she muttered with an angry tone: "Since I cannot run away from it, then I better fight to the death against him!"
Tang Li Xue quickly took out the [Frost Swan Sword] from her space pouch when she saw the white-feathered giant owl zoomed toward her from above.
Little Loki that still sat on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder immediately stood up as it thought: ''Idiot! You will only die faster if you try to fight that creature head-on!''
Tang Li Xue could not read or hear Little Loki''s thoughts since she was still busily trying to execute some of her martial art moves to counter the white-feathered giant owl''s attack.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
Tang Li Xue let her sharp [Spirit Perception] guide the tip of her [Frost Swan Sword], and the tip of her [Frost Swan Sword] shed with the weak gap between the white-feathered giant owl''s silver w.
CLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue faintly heard a cracking sound as she felt stinging pain from her wrist.
The [Frost Swan Sword] in Tang Li Xue''s grasp before was spinning on mid-air as it was flying toward several tens of meters behind Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue stared at her broken wrist in shock and disbelief for a few moments.
The white-feathered giant owl quickly took this chance to sweep Tang Li Xue away with its silver w!
BAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s slender body was thrown off several tens of meters backward like a broken kite and crashed heavily onto the ground. She only stopped after leaving a long trail on the grassy ground.
Fortunately, the grassy ground was quite soft, so it could lessen the damage Tang Li Xue took from the collision.
If it was a hard stone floor, Tang Li Xue would certainly receive more lethal damage and even break several more of her bones.
Tang Li Xue sluggishly tried to stand up again, but she coughed out several mouthfuls of blood while doing it.
However, the white-feathered giant owl did not n to give Tang Li Xue any time to recover. It swiftly shed toward Tang Li Xue again!
Tang Li Xue still felt dizzy and weak, but she gritted her teeth and decided to use [Shadow sh] to dodge the white-feathered giant owl''s attack while distancing herself from it and use that little time to recover herself a bit.
Shadow sh: Teleport to any shadow up to 100 meters away in an instant. Cooldown: 10 minutes.
Tang Li Xue instantly teleported herself to the grass shade 100 meters away from her previous location.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The white-feathered giant owl swung its sharp w onto the ground where Tang Li Xue stood before.
The power of the white-feathered giant owl was so great that its w attack could create a giant deep create on the ground.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue quickly took [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from her space pouch and stuck it onto her body.
The [Talisman of Regeneration +3] activated in that instant and started to slowly heal Tang Li Xue''s heavy wounds over time.
The white-feathered giant owl immediately locked on Tang Li Xue''s new location and shed toward her for the third time.
It was already toote for Tang Li Xue to grab her [Frost Swan Sword] that was sixty meters from her, so she decided to take [Scepter of Disaster] from her space pouch to defend herself against the white-feathered giant owl''s attack.
Although, Tang Li Xue already knew that she could notpletely block the white-feathered giant owl''s attack since it was too powerful, but she did not have any other choice right now.
The white-feathered giant owl''s huge silver w shed toward Tang Li Xue again.
Tang Li Xue quickly raised the [Scepter of Disaster] to block it, but she felt like a child that tried to block a high-speed heavy truck.
"Damn it! I am really done for this time!" Tang Li Xue eximed desperately.
But suddenly, a ck shadow shed from Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder toward the white-feathered giant owl!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
The white-feathered giant owl''s huge silver w shed heavily against the ck shadow!
The white-feathered giant owl was thrown off several meters on mid-air, and it even spun several times on mid-air, but it quickly pped its huge white wings and stabilized itself in only a few seconds.
Meanwhile, the ck shadow mmed heavily onto the grassy ground. The tiny ck figure alreadynded on its four limbs, but the powerful sh still pushed it backward several tens of meters.
"LITTLE LOKI!!!" Tang Li Xue screamed full of worry.
Yes, it was Little Loki that helped Tang Li Xue block the white-feathered giant owl''s powerful attack this time.
But it was not easy even for Little Loki to block it...
Drip... Drip... Drip...
ck blood dripped out from Little Loki''s right paw and fell onto the grassy ground.
Crrrssss...
Little Loki''s ck blood acted like an acid that melted away everything it touched.
The grassy ground below Little Loki''s paw and around it already melted into ck liquid when Little Loki''s ck blood dripped onto it.
Chapter 470: Little Loki VS White Feathered Giant Owl!
Chapter 470: Little Loki VS White Feathered Giant Owl!
This was actually the first time Little Loki got hurt since it hatched from the egg until now.
Tang Li Xue quickly ran to approach the wounded Little Loki with an expression full of worry while taking out another [Talisman of Regeneration +3].
Tang Li Xue wanted to use to [Talisman of Regeneration +3] on Little Loki to heal Little Loki''s wounds, but before she could do that...
BBWWOOOOOOOOOOOSSHHH~!!!
The most terrifying pressure Tang Li Xue ever felt until now pressed her onto the grassy ground.
Tang Li Xue stumbled and fell because of the sudden appearance of that terrifying pressure.
She tried to stand up again, but the pressure was pressing her slender figure like a very heavy mountain, and she could not even move right now.
Tang Li Xue painstakingly raised her head to see where the terrifying pressure came from...
It was actuallying from the white-feathered giant owl!
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned pale in that instant.
She immediately realized that the reason why she could not feel any aura or pressure from the white-feathered giant owl before was because it did not take her seriously at all.
The white-feathered giant owl was only toying with her all this time!
It seems the white-feathered giant owl finally decided to get more serious and released its true enormous pressure and aura after its attack was countered by Little Loki just now.
''Oh, God... This pressure... This aura... There is no mistake... This fat owl is a genuine Spirit Beast! Damn, what the hell is a creature at this level doing here?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in fright and panic.
Tang Li Xue instantly fell into despair.
Even though this white-feathered giant owl was only a False Spirit Beast that failed to take the Human Tribtion Route and only took the Easiest Route to evolve, but it was not something that the current Tang Li Xue or Little Loki could face or defeat yet.
It was truly a hopeless situation...
The white-feathered giant owl kept pping its huge wings as it hovered slowly on mid-air and looked down on everything.
It nced at Tang Li Xue for a moment, but its eyes were full of arrogance as if it was staring at a worthless ant.
The white-feathered giant owl clearly did not take Tang Li Xue seriously at all since it felt that it could pitch Tang Li Xue to death anytime it wants.
But the white-feathered giant owl''s eyes turned a bit solemn when it stared at Little Loki.
Such a tiny body, but it has enough strength to block the white-feathered giant owl''s heavy attack.
Moreover, the white-feathered giant owl sensed a huge threat from the ck blood tickled down from Little Loki''s tiny furry paw.
That dangerous ck blood could probably melt even its steel-like feathers and dealt some injuries to it.
Although it was impossible for Little Loki''s tiny body to produce enough ck blood topletely drown the white-feathered giant owl and melted its entire huge body, but the white-feathered giant owl still did not want to let down its guard against such a creepy unknown creature like Little Loki.
A lion might toy around a weak ant to relieve its boredom, but it would still use its full strength to hunt the rabbit... It was a perfect metaphor to describe the current situation.
The white-feathered giant owl and Little Loki red at each other full of hostility.
The terrifying pressure and aura from the white-feathered giant owl did not affect Little Loki at all.
On contrary, the pressure from Little Loki''s bloodline as pure-blooded Tao Tie made the white-feathered giant owl felt extremely threatened and also made the white-feathered giant owl became more serious.
Little Loki lowered its body, ready to pounce toward the white-feathered giant owl anytime.
While the white-feathered giant owl still leisurely pped its huge wings and hovered in mid-air.
Both of them kept staring at each other without moving in the tranquil meadow apanied by only the rustling sound of grasses around them.
One second...
Two seconds...
In the third second, both Little Loki and the white-feathered giant owl suddenly moved at the same time!
A ck and white shadow crossed against each other with an incredible speed far surpassing the sound speed.
But the speed of the white-feathered giant owl was higher than Little Loki due to its enormous wings!
The white-feathered giant owl approached Little Loki first and aimed its huge sharp silver w to Little Loki''s back from above!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
''It vanished!'' The white-feathered giant owl thought in surprise when Little Loki suddenly disappeared right in front of its eyes, and its silver w only struck the empty grassy ground.
Right before the white-feathered giant owl''s huge silver w could sh Little Loki''s back, Little Loki actually used its [Instant Teleportation] skill to dodge it!
''I got you~!'' Little Loki sneered at the white-feathered giant owl.
Little Loki instantly teleported itself above the white-feathered giant owl, then it opened its tiny mouth as wide as it could...
[Heaven''s Devour]!
As if a tiny ck hole suddenly opened in Little Loki''s tiny mouth, the surrounding spiritual energy, grasses, soil, and even the surrounding space started to get sucked into Little Loki''s tiny mouth.
The white-feathered giant owl that was right in front of Little Loki was also get sucked, but before it could get couldpletely be swallowed by Little Loki, the white-feathered giant owl rapidly pped its huge wings to resist Little Loki''s sucking power and get away from Little Loki.
Little Loki''s devouring power that was sucking everything and the white-feathered giant owl''s flying force that wanted to get away from Little Loki shed like a tug of war.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue, who lied on the ground and still could not move, was actually getting sucked by Little Loki''s devouring power too and flew toward Little Loki!
Little Loki did not want to devour Tang Li Xue, so it could only give up its attempt and end its [Heaven''s Devour].
Little Loki shed toward Tang Li Xue and caught the cor of Tang Li Xue''s clothes on mid-air, then put her gently onto the grassy ground.
''Tsk~! Only a little bit more...'' Little Loki sighed in regret.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue felt dizzy and sick since she flew up and down with unbelievable speed.
Unlike Little Loki that could ignore the enormous pressure and aura from the white-feathered giant owl thanks to its godly species as pure-blooded Tao Tie, each of Tang Li Xue''s bones was already creaking under the terrifying pressure, and she could not even move her finger.
Her internal wounds were also getting worse, and she coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood again.
The white-feathered giant owl had a lingering fear after it tasted Little Loki''s true terrifying ability, so it no longer dared to carelessly approach Little Loki.
But it did not mean that the white-feathered giant owl would give up and go away since it could still attack Little Loki from afar!
Little Loki was worried about Tang Li Xue, but it could sense that the white-feathered giant owl already locked onto it and was ready tounch another attack from afar!
Little Loki immediately dashed away from Tang Li Xue, so the white-feathered giant owl''s next attack would not stray and hit Tang Li Xue.
The white-feathered giant owl pped its huge white wings toward Little Loki from the sky, and many of its silvery feathers were shooting toward Little Loki at once!
[Silver Feathers Storm]!
Hundreds of sharp silver feathers filled the night sky and showered toward Little Loki!
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
Little Loki swiftly jumped to the right and left to dodge the sharp silver feathers.
Sometimes, Little Loki also activated its [Instant Teleportation] repeatedly to avoid several sharp silver feathers that flying at once toward it, but it still could not get out from the wide attacking radius of the white-feathered giant owl''s [Silver Feathers Storm].
One of the sharp silver feathers managed to graze Little Loki''s shoulder and made him bleed again.
Little Loki wanted to open its mouth to activate its [Heaven''s Devour] again to devour all sharp silver feathers, but it took at least half-second or one second time to activate it, so it decided to use another skill instead first!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]!
All the sharp silver feathers around Little Loki suddenly stagnated on mid-air!
Then Little Loki opened its tiny mouth and activated [Heaven''s Devour], then all hundreds of sharp silver feathers were sucked and swallowed into its mouth in only a few moments.
At a nce, Little Loki seems to look even toe to toe against the white-feathered giant owl... But Little Loki was actually already got injured several times against the white-feathered giant owl, while the white-feathered giant owl still remained uninjured until now.
Actually, the white-feathered giant owl''s advantage was much more than that in all aspects such as strength, speed, defense, and abilities, but it was wary against Little Loki''s varying strange abilities, so it did not dare to be careless and decided to y safe against Little Loki.
"Cough... Cough... Who is that fat bird fight against right now? Is it Little Loki? Damn it! Urgh... How could a spirit beast like that fat bird appeared here?" Tang Li Xueined while coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood.
''Any beast should be greatly suppressed in this Inheritance Ground Tablet, and it should not be able to use any of its divine abilities here too... Then why is this fat bird still so powerful?'' Tang Li Xue''s mind started to think faster and clearer.
''Eh, it is really strange... Wait a minute... There is something incredibly wrong here... Since this fat bird can stay in this Inheritance Ground Tablet, then it means this fat bird is one of the inheritance guardians here. That was the reason why its strength did not get much restricted here like me!'' Tang Li Xue''s expression changed to a gloomy expression.
''The hell, who can defeat such incredibly powerful inheritance guardian at the Spirit Beast Level like this fat bird?! Aren''t only Acupuncture Opening Stage cultivators who can enter this Inheritance Ground Tablet?!'' Tang Li Xueined and cursed again in her mind.
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly realized something very crucial as her topaz blue eyes were shining brighter and brighter.
''Damn! Why am I so stupid?! Who said that I must defeat this fat bird to pass this meadow area?! Since there would be no one that could defeat such a powerful inheritance guardian, then it means there must be some other way for this fat bird to let us pass this area!!!'' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind with a dumbfounded expression.
Chapter 471: Close Call!
Chapter 471: Close Call!
Tang Li Xue closed her eyes, then she began to recall one by one the scene after she entered this creepy herb garden started to sh in her mind.
The moment when she stepped into the herb garden and met with Beiming Chu, then they fought together against the giant carnivorous tree...
''Nope, that giant carnivorous tree should not have any connection with this fat bird...'' Tang Li Xue thought.
The moment when she entered the horrifying swamp filled with blood-sucking big leeches and almost turned into a dried corpse because of them...
''Umm... those blood-sucking big leeches should not have any rtionship with this fat bird, right? Pass!'' Tang Li Xue shook her head.
Lastly, the moment when she got into the flower field and had some misunderstanding with the flower fairies until the queen of flower fairies came, then she almost had a quarrel with Little Loki...
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue eventually managed to pacify the queen of flower fairies and even got a very precious [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] from her...
''Eh, wait a minute... don''t tell me... Is it that [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower]?!'' Tang Li Xue suddenly opened her topaz blue eyes in surprise and disbelief.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body still could not move under the terrifying pressure and aura from the white-feathered giant owl, but she gritted her teeth and started to squirm her body as she forcefully tried to take out her space pouch.
Fortunately, the space pouch really slid out bit by bit from her clothes.
Only at this moment, Tang Li Xue was d that she did not have a pair of E-cup breasts, if not, the space pouch she stored in her clothes might not slide out easily like this.
When her space pouch managed to slip out from her clothes, Tang Li Xue quickly bit it with her mouth and used her thoughts to take out the [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower].
Tang Li Xue could not move too much so she could not see the fight between the white-feathered giant owl and Little Loki clearly, but she could guess that the situation might be really bad for Little Loki right now, since the white-feathered giant owl was too powerful!
''Little Loki, quickly bring that fat bird to me!'' Tang Li Xue hastily sent her thought to Little Loki.
Just like Tang Li Xue had guessed, Little Loki''s situation was really bad, and its small body was already filled with slicing wounds.
Little Loki''s ck blood kept trickling down onto the grassy ground and melted everything it touched into ck liquid.
Little Loki instantly felt confused and stunned when it heard Tang Li Xue''s sudden instruction.
Tang Li Xue could feel Little Loki''s confusion, so she immediately tried to reassure it: ''I do not have any time to exin it. Please believe in me this time and try to lead that fat bird to me!''
Little Loki still did not feel convinced by Tang Li Xue, but it also knew that it almost hit the limit, so Little Loki decided to put its bet on Tang Li Xue.
The white-feathered giant owl would never give any chance for Little Loki to recover or to think, and it alreadyunched another fierce attack toward Little Loki!
[Silver Feathers Storm]!
Hundreds of sharp silver feathers filled the night sky and showered toward Little Loki for the fourth time!
Little Loki could only groan in frustration as the white-feathered giant owl kept its distance from Little Loki like usual and only kept spamming its long-range attack.
Little Loki could only activate its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] again to stop all sharp silver feathers that were flying toward it.
However, the white-feathered giant owl immediatelyunched another follow-up attack!
[Cyclone st]!
A giant swirling vortex was shot toward Little Loki, and it even propelled forward all of the sharp silver feathers that halted on mid-air because of Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation].
Little Loki hesitated for a moment, but it immediately gritted its teeth and decided to trust Tang Li Xue''s instruction.
Little Loki quickly activated its [Instant Teleportation] right before the [Cyclone st] and the sharp silver feathers hit its tiny furry body.
Little Loki instantly teleported right beside Tang Li Xue that still lying down on the grassy ground.
Meanwhile, the white-feathered giant owl already swiftly locked on Little Loki''s position again and was ready tounch another attack toward Little Loki without any mercy.
With its incredible fast flight speed, the white-feathered giant owl flew right above Little Loki and Tang Li Xue, but it still did not forget to keep its distance from Little Loki since it was still wary of Little Loki''s devouring power.
It seemed that the white-feathered giant owl nned to attack Little Loki and Tang Li Xue at once right from above them!
Tang Li Xue anxiously took out the [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] from her space pouch, then she quickly bit its stem and waved the [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] toward the sky.
When the white-feathered giant owl saw the [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower], it quickly halted its attempt to attack and descended slowly toward Tang Li Xue.
However, the white-feathered giant owl did not forget to keep observing Little Loki, and it was ready to dodge if Little Lokiunched some attacks.
Little Loki threateningly bared its tiny fangs toward the white-feathered giant owl in the sky when it saw the white-feathered giant owl was descending toward them.
Little Loki prepared to attack the white-feathered giant owl again, but Tang Li Xue quickly stopped it: ''Little Loki, Stop! Do not attack that fat bird yet! Let''s see its reaction first!''
Little Loki reluctantly withdrew its killing intent against the white-feathered giant owl, but it jumped on the top of Tang Li Xue''s slender body instead.
Little Loki already nned to use [Instant Teleportation] and teleported together with Tang Li Xue if the white-feathered giant owl attacked themter.
The white-feathered giant owlnded in front of Tang Li Xue and lowered its huge head toward Tang Li Xue, but its target was not Tang Li Xue nor Little Loki.
The white-feathered giant owl actually tried to examine the [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] on Tang Li Xue closer.
Tang Li Xue was really nervous since the white-feathered giant owl''s huge head was so close in front of her face, while Little Loki growled toward the white-feathered giant owl.
Cold sweat poured down from Tang Li Xue''s forehead, and each second passing felt very long for her.
After a few nerve-wracking moments, the white-feathered giant owl raised its huge head again.
The white-feathered giant owl red angrily at Tang Li Xue as if it was trying to scold Tang Li Xue, why she did not show the flower to it from the start.
At least, it would not attack Tang Li Xue if she showed the flower to it from the start.
The white-feathered giant owl stopped paying attention to Tang Li Xue since Tang Li Xue had the [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower], but it red at Little Loki instead right now.
The white-feathered giant owl could ept if only Tang Li Xue entered the core area, but it was still greatly reluctant to let a very sinister creature like Little Loki enter the core area.
Yes, the white-feathered giant owl already sensed the thick ancient evil aura from Little Loki when it fought against Little Loki before.
There was no doubt that the bearer of the thick ancient evil aura like this would bring misfortune and cmity everywhere it goes.
So, the white-feathered giant owl pondered its options carefully since it might be the best option to just y this evil creature right here on the spot to cut the bud before it grows into a towering tree of cmity.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she sensed the white-feathered giant owl withdraw its terrifying pressure and aura that kept pressuring her until now.
Tang Li Xue stretched her body, but she felt her knees were still numb, so she decided to only sit on the grassy ground instead of trying to stand up.
When Tang Li Xue raised her head to take a nce at the white-feathered giant owl, she caught the white-feathered giant owl staring at Little Loki with eyes filled with killing intent.
Tang Li Xue shuddered in fright, and she immediately reached her hands toward Little Loki, then quickly hugged Little Loki tightly in her arms like a hen protecting her chick under its wings.
Crrrssss...
Little Loki''s tiny furry body was filled with wounds and its ck blood started to corrode Tang Li Xue''s fair skin the moment Tang Li Xue embraced Little Loki.
Tang Li Xue winced in pain for one moment, but she did not care and still embraced Little Loki tightly while staring back menacingly at the white-feathered giant owl.
The white-feathered giant owl widened its eyes in surprise and stared at Tang Li Xue in disbelief.
The white-feathered giant owl tilted its head in confusion while thinking: ''You are the weakest one here. Why do you want to protect such a vile creature?''
The white-feathered giant owl started to hesitate.
''Should it kill these two creatures? But its duty is to guard the core area of herb valley and only let the person approved by the flower fairies pass.''
''If it kills these two creatures, doesn''t it mean it failed to fulfill its duty?''
After pondering it carefully for a few moments, the white-feathered giant owl sighed.
BBBWWWOOOOOOOSSHHH~!!!
The white-feathered giant owl pped its huge wings and then it vanished from Tang Li Xue''s view.
In the end, the white-feathered giant owl thought that its duty was not to protect the world, so it decided to let Little Loki go.
Chapter 472: Towering World Tree!
Chapter 472: Towering World Tree!
Tang Li Xue carefully observed her surroundings and the night sky above her for a while.
She only sighed in relief after she made sure that the white-feathered giant owl was really already gone from there.
When all the tension she felt was gone, and she became rxed, Tang Li Xue felt her body be very weak, so she let go of Little Loki from her embrace andid down on the grassy ground while breathing heavily.
"That was really close... Fortunately, I realized the purpose of that [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] on time, if not... Sigh... Whatever... It is already over now." Tang Li Xue stopped talking and closed her eyes to rest.
Although, Tang Li Xue did not fight very fiercely like in the Crystal Tomb Pce, but resisting the terrifying pressure and aura from the white-feathered giant owl was more than enough to make herpletely exhausted.
If Tang Li Xue did not grit her teeth and held on until now, she would surely already fainted long ago because of it.
Meanwhile, Little Loki limply got out from Tang Li Xue''s embrace and then started to lick its own ck blood that melted some of Tang Li Xue''s skin and flesh.
"I am all right, Little Loki. You do not need to worry about me. Your wounds look much worse than mine, so you should just take a rest now." Tang Li Xue whispered to Little Loki with a hoarse voice while trying to take the [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from her space pouch.
But her hands were shaky, weak, and sluggish. It seemed both of her hands were wounded pretty badly because she hugged Little Loki before, so she could not even grip anything properly right now.
"Sigh... Forget it... Let''s just take a rest together for now..." Tang Li Xue muttered as she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep in exhaustion.
Little Loki did not stop as Tang Li Xue had requested it to do.
Little Loki knew that its ck blood was extremely corrosive and dangerous. If it did not clean it properly, then its ck blood might keep corroding Tang Li Xue''s flesh until even her bones will meltter.
Little Loki kept licking Tang Li Xue''s wound and only stopped after it checked a few more times to make sure that Tang Li Xue was really clean from its ck blood.
All wounds at Little Loki''s body already closed and stopped bleeding, since Little Loki has amazing regeneration ability as pure-blooded Tao Tie.
But Little Loki felt extremely exhausted after an intense battle against the white-feathered giant owl, so Little Loki instantly fell asleep on the top of Tang Li Xue''s body after it cleaned Tang Li Xue from its ck blood.
Tang Li Xue and Little Loki fell asleep together for three days straight without knowing it. Fortunately, there was nothing dangerous in this meadow other than the white-feathered giant owl, if not, it would be hard to tell if Tang Li Xue and Little Loki would have any strength to protect themselves.
When Tang Li Xue and Little Loki woke up from their deep sleep, all of their wounds were alreadypletely recovered.
They felt extremely refreshed, but their stomach was rumbling in hunger.
Tang Li Xue blushed a bit in embarrassment. She quickly took out the food stock that she bought from the luxurious restaurant on the first floor of the residential building before leaving the Myriad Fox Academy and ate it to relieve her hunger.
She also took out many [Umon] grade beast cores for Little Loki to eat.
After Tang Li Xue and Little Loki felt full, both of them stood up and took a deep breath while stretching their stiff body for a few moments.
"Let''s go, Little Loki! It would be bad if that fat bird changed its mind and decided to hunt us again. So, we should quickly reach the core area and rob... cough... I mean take everything we need there and get out as soon as possible from here." Tang Li Xue said to Little Loki with a solemn expression.
Little Loki jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder, and then Tang Li Xue took her [White Swan Sword] and [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] that still lied on the grassy ground nearby.
When Tang Li Xue grabbed the [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower], she unhappily nagged: "Tsk, we almost died because of that fairy queen! Why doesn''t she say something when she gave us this flower?! She can at least give us some sign or warn us about it, right? I thought this flower is a precious treasure before... Who knows that it is just a passport to pass this meadow area."
After unhappily grumbling for a while, Tang Li Xue threw both [White Swan Sword] and [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] into her space pouch, and she quickly executed her [Snow Dance Step] and continued her journey to the core area of this Herb Valley.
Actually, it was not the fairy flower queen''s fault since that was the purpose of this trial of alertness in this meadow area.
Moreover, the fairy flower queen usually only gave one of the shiny flowers from the flower field to any people that passed her trial of kindness, but the fairy flower queen gave Tang Li Xue [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] that was extremely precious.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue still did not know the true worth of this [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] since she could not use [Basic All-Knowing Eyes] here.
.....
Lucky for Tang Li Xue and Little Loki, they did not meet any more obstacles or enemies on their way, so their journey was very smooth this time.
The herbs and nts in this meadow area were actually far more precious than the other areas that Tang Li Xue had already passed through before.
Tang Li Xue was really tempted to pick some of these very precious herbs, but the existence of the white-feathered giant owl made her feel threatened and uneasy, so she decided to abandon all of those precious herbs in the end and hastily got out from the meadow area.
It took her a few hours to pass the meadow area even after she executed her [Snow Dance Step] to run at the full speed.
When Tang Li Xue managed to pass the meadow area, she saw another magnificent scene in front of her.
She halted her step and tilted her head upward as she eximed in awe and shock: "What a big tree?! What kind of tree is that?!"
Yes... On contrary to Tang Li Xue''s expectation, there was only one giant towering tree in the core area of this herb valley!
Giant or huge could not even properly describe the size of this tree since it was too big, bigger than even a mountain. Tang Li Xue even assumed that this towering tree might be the legendary world tree in Norse Mythology, Yggdrasil.
But Tang Li Xue felt very disappointed since she thought that there would be countless priceless herbs here instead of a useless towering tree.
Well... Something like herbs that could make her super-powerful after she ate it or at least allow her to have a few stages of cultivation breakthrough at once.
"Sigh... Forget it... Let''s get close and see if we can find something good there." Tang Li Xue muttered as she shook her head in disappointment.
However, Tang Li Xue still hoped to find something precious from that towering tree, at least something worthy enough to make up for her hard effort to reach here.
Tang Li Xue executed her [Snow Dance Step] again, but she did not dash with her full speed like before since she also decided to raise her vignce to the maximum.
Tang Li Xue already realized that every time she entered the new area in this herb valley, she always faced great difficulty as the trial, so she did not dare to drop her guard even for a second after she entered this core area.
"Hopefully, we will not meet any troublesome thing this time..." Tang Li Xue whispered with a worried tone as she jumped onto the big roots and ran on the top of it.
Different from the meadow area, the ground of this new area was covered by countless giant roots from the towering giant tree.
"Nyaaaaan~!" Little Loki meowed as it tapped onto Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder with its paw, then it pointed its paw toward a certain direction at the towering tree.
Tang Li Xue stared at Little Loki in confusion, but she still decided to look in the direction where Little Loki''s paw pointed at.
The towering tree was still quite far away from where Tang Li Xue at right now, but she could still see it clearly because there was no fog or mist here to limit her sight like in the previous area.
Then she saw the white-feathered giant owl perched on one of the towering giant tree''s branches.
As if the white-feathered giant owl sensed the stare from Little Loki and Tang Li Xue, it opened its sleepy eyes and stared back at them too.
Tang Li Xue immediately became tense when the white-feathered giant owl looked toward her.
Fortunately, the white-feathered giant owl only stared at them for a few moments before it closed its eyes again and ignored them.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after the white-feathered giant owl ignored her and Little Loki, but she still decided to proceed even more carefully.
''It seems that fat bird''s job is to guard this huge tree. Hmm... Since this huge tree has such a powerful guardian, then it means that there should be some extremely precious treasures stored here, right? Uwehehehe... I am really looking forward to it!'' Tang Li Xue slyly giggled as she put her finger on her chin to think.
Chapter 473: Sapphire Armored Wasps!
Chapter 473: Sapphire Armored Wasps!
When Tang Li Xue got closer to the towering tree, she instantly felt refreshed, joyous, and peaceful.
It was as if the towering tree in front of her washed every inch of her body with holy baptism.
Tang Li Xue felt a great urge to worship the towering world tree in great reverence.
Little Loki frowned deeply as it also realized the abnormal holy aura emitting by the towering world tree that could easily affect any creature''s mind if they approached it carelessly.
Little Loki tapped Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder again with its paw and the thin invisible energy seeped into Tang Li Xue''s body to awaken her from the influence of holy aura from the towering world tree.
Tang Li Xue immediately awoke from her semi-conscious state. She shook her head to clear her mind and eximed in shock: "What the hell is happening just now? Don''t tell me this huge tree has some kind of hypnotic power?! That is really scary!"
Tang Li Xue felt hesitant for a few moments as she pondered if she should continue her way to find the treasure at the towering world tree in front of her or should she just give up right now.
Anyway, her life was still more precious than any precious treasure, since she would never be able to enjoy the treasure if she lost her life in the end.
Just when Tang Li Xue was hesitating, Little Loki suddenly called her.
"Nya~!" Little Loki patted its furry chest proudly, then pointed its furry paw forward.
It seemed Little Loki wanted to tell Tang Li Xue to not worry since it was with her, and it could help her to cope up with any danger, including the influence from the towering world tree.
Tang Li Xue giggled as she took Little Loki from her right shoulder and kissed its forehead gently.
"All right, my cute little escort... Then I will be counting on you, okay?" Tang Li Xue said as she hugged Little Loki in her warm embrace and patted its tiny furry head gently.
Little Loki purred and closed its eyes infort when Tang Li Xue''s soft smooth hand gently caressed its ck fur.
Tang Li Xue proceed toward the towering world tree as she agilely jumped from one world tree''s root to another, but she still kept her vignt at maximum.
Although Little Loki said that it could protect her from any harm, but she still did not want to gamble her life and Little Loki''s life for the precious treasure hidden here.
In short, she already decided to give up and retreat from this ce if she met something exceedingly strange or dangerouster.
Her harvest in this Inheritance Ground Tablet was quite bountiful already anyway, and her strength already increased by leap and bound.
If she had enough time to digest all of her harvest in this Inheritance Ground Tablet, Tang Li Xue was quite sure that she could get a quite satisfying result in Fox Hunting Festivalter.
As Tang Li Xue got closer and closer to the towering world tree, the more awe-inspiring it looked.
d¦Á-|m
Even though the towering world tree looked so clear and so close to Tang Li Xue before, but she actually still need more than one hour of running to reach right under the towering world tree.
Right now, Tang Li Xue felt like an ant standing under the giant Banyan Tree.
The trunk of the towering world tree formed a gigantic spiral, and the crown of the towering world tree pierced into the cloud on the skies.
"This tree looks very impressive. I hope we can really find some valuable treasures here." Tang Li Xue muttered as she raised her head to look at the towering world tree.
Tang Li Xue jumped onto the towering world tree''s spiral trunk without any hesitation and swiftly ran on the tree trunk toward the top of the towering world tree.
But before she could climb far enough, Tang Li Xue sensed something quick flew toward her direction.
Tang Li Xue nimbly jumped onto the narrow space at the spiral tree trunk to hide while peeking to check at the creatures thating toward her.
"Those are... bees? No, that should be a group of giant wasps. Tsk, I knew this would not be that easy!" Tang Li Xue murmured with a displeased tone.
Each of those wasps was almost as big as Tang Li Xue herself, and their body was covered with sapphire armor.
Moreover, their flying speed was very high, and they moved in an orderly manner like one single entity.
Just one look and Tang Li Xue already could easily judge that these Sapphire Armored Wasps were not something easy to deal with.
Let alone these Sapphire Armored Wasps definitely has more than this one group since their nest should be around this towering world tree.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and tried to call softly: "System... Can you give me a quest or mission?"
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s system still did not give her any response at this time.
Actually, Tang Li Xue already tried to trigger some quest at colorful flower field, at the meadow, and when she was first staring at this towering world tree, but her system still did not give her any response.
It means that the system judged that Tang Li Xue could easily pass any trouble here with her current ability... or she has something... or she could use some clever words to easily pass those ces without any problem.
In short, Tang Li Xue''s system would never give her any quest or mission with a loophole for her to use.
As long as Tang Li Xue still has an easy way to pass that problem, then the quest would not be given.
Of course, Tang Li Xue already knew that fact after trying to trigger any quest so many times until now: "Sigh... What a cheapskate system! What''s wrong with giving me some free level once in a while?!"
After calming down, Tang Li Xue started to rack her brain to think of some way.
"Since System did not give me any quest, does it mean I have an easy way to deal with these Sapphire Wasps without fighting them just like when I am facing the Flower Fairy Queen and that fat bird? But... how?" Tang Li Xue muttered while biting her pink lips.
Tang Li Xue reached her slender hand toward her space pouch and took out [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] from her space pouch.
"Should I use this [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower] again? Show it toward them to let them let us pass? It should not be, right? Oh, well... I will just hold it, just in case if something simr will happen like when we are facing that fat bird." Tang Li Xue pondered carefully.
After considering it for a while, Tang Li Xue decided to just proceed carefully as usual, but she would hide if some groups of Sapphire Armored Wasps approached her.
Because of that, her speed once again reduced drastically.
If Tang Li Xue climbed with her full speed, she could reach the top of the towering world tree in less than half a day. But now, she still did not reach the top yet even after a few days had passed.
Thankfully, she finally reached the top on the fifth day after ying hide and seek with the Sapphire Armored Wasps until she was almost running out of her patience, but her time to stay in Inheritance Ground Tablet was almost run out because of that.
However, Tang Li Xue''s problem was not over yet like what she had hoped for.
On the contrary, she was met with a much bigger obstacle right now.
A Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive!
There were thousands... No, maybe tens of thousands of Sapphire Armored Wasps there!
"Holy... Mother... How the hell I can pass that thing?!" Tang Li Xue almost wanted to blurt out some vulgar curses when she saw the Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive.
She was already carefully enough on her way to avoid one or two groups of Sapphire Armored Wasps on her way, but here... there were hundreds of groups of Sapphire Armored Wasps!
In contrast with Tang Li Xue''s despair look, Little Loki, who sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder showed a very excited expression.
"Nyaaaan~!!! Nyaw, nyaw, meow..." Little Loki started to whisper something to Tang Li Xue''s ear.
"Eh, what? You say their royal jelly and honey is a treasure worth much more than any precious herbs! Wait a minute... The wasp does not produce honey or royal jelly, right?" Tang Li Xue asked with a skeptical tone.
Little Loki rolled its third eye in disdain and patiently told Tang Li Xue that Sapphire Wasp Hive only produced a few royal jelly and honey in hundreds of years, but they were very precious since they could change her physique into a powerful one and even make her awaken one Divine Ability.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining brightly in excitement when she heard Little Loki''s exnation.
She could ignore that ''change her physique into a powerful one'' since her physique was already quite strong, but awakening one Divine Ability was a different story. It was very tempting for her! ?
"Their sapphire armor looks beautiful and strong. It should be their special Divine Ability, right? If I can get that Divine Ability andbine it with my [Golden Body], my defense will be imprable, right? Uwehehehe..." Tang Li Xue muttered with an excited tone.
Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Body] was a powerful defense type Divine Ability, but it could only reduce any damage she received.
In short, she would still receive some damage if she got hit in her [Golden Body] form!
That was the reason why she chose to use her [Ethereal Form] in battle instead.
But if she couldbine her [Golden Body] with another armor type divine ability to withstand the damage, then it would be perfect!
[Golden Body] to increase the defense and reduce the damage she received, while the armor type divine ability to protect her body... Then it means she would no longer need to receive any damage!
Moreover, she even has [Arcane Tunic] to protect her body too right now!
Chapter 474: Stealing Food from the Tiger’s Mouth!
Chapter 474: Stealing Food from the Tiger¡¯s Mouth!
Tang Li Xue looked up toward the sky. It almost turned dark, and she decided to start devising some ns in her mind to steal the royal jelly and honey from the Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp.
It was a pity that she could not use her [Ethereal Form] to sneak into this Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive, or it would be a piece of cake for her to steal everything she wants and escape from there.
Thankfully, she still has the [Shadow Striders]''s equipment effect as a recement.
(Shadow Walker: Turned invisible in the dark ce.)
With this [Shadow Walker] andbined it with her [Art of Concealment], Tang Li Xue could turn invisible and undetectable at night.
As long as she could proceed carefully and avoid bright ces, Tang Li Xue hadplete confidence in sneaking in and stealing that extremely precious royal jelly and honey from this Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive.
Of course, [Shadow Walker] alone was far from enough, so Tang Li Xue also took out a few talismans left in her spatial pouch to check them.
"Tsk, there is only one stack of [Talisman of Regeneration +3] left... Sigh... I should use them more sparingly from now on."
"Four [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3]... Hmm... Not bad, but they are not really useful since they could not hurt those Sapphire Armored Wasps... Oh, wait... At least, I can still use them as a diversionter. Awesome!"
"Oh, there are still two [Stealth Talisman +3] left! Great! I can use them on Little Loki to make it invisible too! As for thest one, I can use it in an emergency situation to hide, or I can even use it to pass some bright cester!"
"Oho~ There are also five [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3]! Good thing! I can use them to add some chaos when I sneak inter! It should make my job easier!"
Tang Li Xue sorted all of her talismans while whispering and giggling with a pair of bright topaz blue eyes.
Even Little Loki stared at her strangely from behind.
After the sky turnedpletely dark, Tang Li Xue started to execute her n to steal the royal jelly and honey from this Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive.
There were tens of thousands of Sapphire Armored Wasps in this Gargantuan hive, but most of them only came in and out as if they were working on something.
Tang Li Xue did not want to waste her limited time investigating what were these Sapphire Armored Wasps doing, but she estimated that there were at least more than ten thousand Sapphire Armored Wasps constantly guarding the Gargantuan Hive.
Tang Li Xue wanted to use one of [Stealth Talisman +3] to make Little Loki turn invisible, but who knew that Little Loki could turn invisible with its own power.
Tang Li Xue smiled at Little Loki and gave it a thumb up, while Little Loki looked back smugly at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue giggled as she felt Little Loki was very cute. She could not resist pinching Little Loki''s cheek and patting its furry head gently.
After Little Loki jumped back onto her right shoulder, she turned around and dashed swiftly with her full speed toward the Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive.
Under the cover of night skies, the effect of [Shadow Walker] was activated, and Tang Li Xue''s slender figure turned invisible.
With her [Art of Concealment], Tang Li Xue silently hid her breath and aura. Even her feminine sweet body scent waspletely covered, and her heartbeat was slowed down a lot to make her undetectable by the guarding Sapphire Armored Wasps.
Tang Li Xue could easily pass hundreds of Sapphire Armored Wasps that guarding on the front of the Gargantuan Hive, but unfortunately, she immediately realized that her task would not be that easy after she sessfully entered the Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive.
Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive has a honeb shape. So, all of the entrances and tunnels were actually connected to each other.
After Tang Li Xue entered one of the holes randomly and entered pretty deep, she immediately realized it.
In short, this Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive was like a gigantic maze!
If Tang Li Xue was not careful and picked her road randomly, there was a high chance that she would only enter from one entrance hole and then exit back out from another hole, and it would be wasting so much of her time!
''Damn it! Why the hell are these Sapphire Armored Wasps made such aplicated nest?! Are they not afraid of getting lost in their own home?!'' Tang Li Xue silentlyined in her mind.
Just when Tang Li Xue felt confused and hesitant to continue her n or give up, Little Loki suddenly licked her left cheek.
"Meow~ Nyaan, Nyaw..." Little Loki meowed while patting its tiny furry chest, then pointing its furry paw toward the southeast.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes brightened like a pair of blue stars as she pped her own forehead and whispered with delighted tone: "Ah, how could I forget your ability to detect the treasure?! Awesome! Little Loki, you are truly my lucky star!"
Tang Li Xue dashed toward the direction where Little Loki pointed out without any hesitation.
d|
On her way, she did not forget to check the material of this Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp hive''s wall when there was no Sapphire Armored Wasp around.
BBAAAAAAANGGG~!!! CLAAAAAANNNKKK~!!!
Tang Li Xue tried to strike the wall of the Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp hive with her full powered kick and sh it with her [Frost Swan Sword], but she failed to leave any dent or faint scratch on the hive''s wall.
Even the frost effect of his [Frost Swan Sword] had absolutely no effect on this nest''s walls.
Tang Li Xue eximed in astonishment while holding her reddened hand in pain: "So hard! It might be even harder than the jade wall at the Myriad Fox Academy! I wonder what kind of material does those Sapphire Armored Wasps use to build this hive? Ummm... Okay, then let''s try to burn it instead this time..."
Tang Li Xue could not use her blue me of Pride yet since the Phoenix of Pride was still in the deep sleep to digest the source of Purple Ghost me, so she could only use her [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3] to test the hive''s wall.
BBBOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
"Oh, crap! The explosion was too loud! Let''s quickly get out of here before those Sapphire Armored Waspse!" Tang Li Xue realized as she quickly hugged Little Loki and executed her [Snow Dance Step].
Her slender figure turned into a sh in an instant as she swiftly dashed away from that explosion''s ce.
Before she got away from there, Tang Li Xue took a quick peek and her expression grimaced slightly when she saw that even her [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3] failed to leave any burn mark on the hive''s wall.
"Indestructible wall that impervious to any attack... Even ice and me have no effect at all... Sigh, so troublesome!" Tang Li Xue muttered.
Little Loki''s ability to find the precious treasures was certainly helpful for them to find the royal jelly and honey in this confusing maze-like Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive, but the real problem right now was how to get out from here AFTER they took those royal jelly and honeyter!
What if they got lostter under the chase of thousands of Sapphire Armored Wasps and could not get out from this Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive...
When Tang Li Xue was thinking hard of a way out to prevent that situation from happening in the future, the hundreds of Sapphire Armored Wasps suddenly came toward her at once.
The hundreds of Sapphire Armored Wasps lined up tidily and flew very quickly toward her in an orderly manner.
There were too many Sapphire Armored Wasps, so Tang Li Xue did not have any more space to hide or to avoid them.
At this rate, she would bump onto any of them soon! Even though Tang Li Xue was still in an invisible state but she would certainly get discovered if she bump onto them!
''Damn it! They areing here too fast! It is toote for us to run away from them! No choice... It is time for n B now!'' Tang Li Xue thought with a solemn expression as she took out her [Scepter of Disaster] from her space pouch.
Tang Li Xue imprisoned many evil spirits in her [Scepter of Disaster] before in the third trial of Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Inheritance Trials.
She nned to tame all of them slowly one by er to form her own evil spirit armies, but she chose to release some of them now as a diversion right now.
Tang Li Xue pointed the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp forward, and several two-headed ck dogs suddenly summoned out from the [Scepter of Disaster].
Then she swiftly activated her [Shadow Striders]''s equipment skill, [Shadow sh], to teleport away from there, so those several two-headed ck dogs would not have any chance to attack her.
(Shadow sh: Teleport to any shadow up to 100 meters away in an instant. Cooldown: 10 minutes.)
Those two-headed ck dogs were the hungry beast souls, so they would attack anyone in their sight to eat.
Although, Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were still in an invisible state but she was still unsure if those two-headed ck dogs could use their sharp sense to detect her and attack her on the spot, so she quickly decided to keep her distance from them.
Since those several two-headed ck dogs could not find Tang Li Xue and Little Loki, they pounced and attacked the armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps that flew toward them instead.
Hundreds of Sapphire Armored Wasps was not afraid and fighting head-on against several two-headed ck dogs!
There were so many Sapphire Armored Wasps, so logically, those Sapphire Armored Wasps could easily tear apart a few ck two-headed dogs with ease.
However, those ck two-headed dogs were not living creatures!
They were only hungry evil spirits without any physical body!
Any physical attack could not hurt them at all!
Chapter 475: An Even More Terrifying Monster!
Chapter 475: An Even More Terrifying Monster!
Other than a mouth that can bite even a metal, Sapphire Armored Wasps also has a sharp stinger that could beunched like a bullet and a pair of sharp sickle arms.
The armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps moved very swiftly andunched relentless attacks on the ck two-headed dogs that already viciously bit theirrades.
The merciless attacks from the Sapphire Armored Wasps managed to cut the body of ck two-headed dogs, but there was no blooding out, only ck smoke.
All the wounds on ck two-headed dogs'' bodies could recover almost instantly as if they were never gotten wounded at all before, while the attack from the group of ck two-headed dogs could hardly pierce the thick armor of Sapphire Armored Wasps.
While the two groups were locked in a deadlock battle, Tang Li Xue took this chance to sneak away from that battlefield ce as quickly as possible before she was discovered by anyone.
''Sigh... That was close... I should be more careful from now on. One slip can bring us into a dangerous situation.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in relief as she proceeded carefully deeper into Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive, Tang Li Xue found out that the guards were decreased a lotpared to before.
After sprinting for quite a long time, Tang Li Xue felt really dizzy since all the tunnels looked the same.
She felt as if she was walking around in the circle all this time.
If it was not for Little Loki''s ability to detect precious treasures and show her the right direction, she would have been already lost her way long ago, and it might take her a few months of exploration to find the ce where the Sapphire Armored Wasps store their precious royal jelly and honey.
"So, it was like this... This Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive actually has many floors like modern skyscraper buildings. Each floor also has many rooms to store foods, and some rooms also used to contain wasp eggs andrvas." Tang Li Xue muttered with a cautious tone as she peeked at the closely guarded rooms.
"Trying to pass this route seems to be very dangerous... Forget it, it is better for us to take some detour rather than take a high-risk route like this." Tang Li Xue said while patting at Little Loki''s little furry head in her embrace.
Despite what she was saying to Little Loki, Tang Li Xue herself was quite anxious inside since her time was quite limited.
Tang Li Xue''s time limit was until sunrise in the morning and her [Shadow Walker] would fade under the sunlight then her invisible state would be canceled by itself.
Even if she was using [Stealth Talisman +3] to turn herself invisible, its effect could only work for an hour or so.
Moreover, many worker-type Sapphire Armored Wasps that have rested at night might wake up in the morning to work, so it would be many times harder for her to sneak around and steal something from this Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive.
Tang Li Xue still decided to take a detour, but she did not hesitate to execute her [Snow Dance Step] to push her speed beyond her maximum speed limit.
[Snow Dance Step] would leave a thinyer of ice and snow under Tang Li Xue''s feet, and it might increase her chance of being discovered, but Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice in order to save some time.
Tang Li Xue almost got discovered by Sapphire Armored Wasps several times on her way, and she was forced to release several evil spirits from her [Scepter of Disaster] several times as a distraction before she could escape safely from them.
Tang Li Xue''s heart ached very much every time she sacrificed her evil spirits for distraction. They were supposed to be a part of her personal armies in the future!
''Aishhh... I hope those honey and royal jelly really worth my every effort and sacrifice, if not I might lose my temperter...'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl white teeth in sorrow.
After several hours of rushing carefully deeper into the nest with her [Snow Dance Step] while avoiding getting discovered on the way, she finally managed to arrive at the main core area, the center of Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive.
Tang Li Xue hid at the corner in one of the dark tunnels and stuck out her head to take a peek at the main core area.
The center core area of Gargantuan Sapphire Wasp Hive was actually a very spacious-looking hall.
The surrounding wall used to build this spacious hall seems special since it was glowing brightly with golden color.
Tang Li Xue certainly could not rely on her [Shadow Walker] to sneak into this spacious hall since [Shadow Walker] would only make her invisible in the dim and dark ce.
Moreover, there were at least more than one thousand Sapphire Armored Wasps hovering around in this spacious hall as if they were guarding something.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shivered slightly when she was peeking at a tightly guarded spacious hall.
The thought of retreating shed in her mind, but when she was started to falter and hesitate, Little Loki who sat on the top of her right shoulder began to act restless, and it suddenly let out a sound.
"Nyaw~! Nyaw~!" Little Loki meowed while using its tiny paw to tap Tang Li Xue''s shoulder, and then it pointed its tiny paw toward the center of a tightly guarded spacious hall.
"Hm? What''s wrong, Little Loki? Over there? What is that? That... that is... the royal jelly?!" Tang Li Xue asked while ncing at the direction where Little Loki''s tiny paw pointed at and noticed a small milky pond.
The small milky pond was covered with very thick spiritual energy in the form of shiny silver vapor.
d¦Á- |m
Even the surrounding space around the pool was slightly pulsating because the richness of spiritual energy contained in the royal jelly pond was too thick.
There were also several golden-colored ponds around the spacious hall. It seems these several golden-colored ponds were the honey.
The amount of honey was clearly tens of times richer than the total amount of royal jelly, but the effect and spiritual energy contained in the royal jelly might be more than a hundred more times effective and richer than the honey.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glittering as her happy smile bloom beautifully in excitement when she saw the small pool of viscous silvery royal jelly.
"I wonder how much EXP I can get if I drink all of that royal jelly?! Is it possible for me to evolve directly to [Rare] grade beast... Err... I mean evolve to a Beast Lord? Uwehehehe... Must take it! I must take all of it!" Tang Li Xue murmured with an excited tone.
As for the golden honey pools, Tang Li Xue certainly wanted to steal it too if she have some more spare timeter, but the royal jelly was still her top priority.
Tang Li Xue could certainly find some honey pools in the previous tightly guarded storage rooms if she searched carefully, but she did not do it because she was afraid of getting discovered before she could steal the royal jelly, that was the reason why she forbore until now.
Just when Tang Li Xue secretly observed the spacious hall to look for the gap on the patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps, her sense of danger was suddenly assaulted by a terrible threat.
Tang Li Xue''s entire slender body was trembling violently as she almost lost her breath in panic.
Tang Li Xue reflexively pulled her head and swiftly took a few steps back to distance herself from the spacious hall''s entrance, then she quicklyy down and kept her body as low as possible on the ground.
Tang Li Xue did not know that her swift reflex moves were triggered by her sharp [Spirit Perception] and high Spirit Stat just saved her life.
That sense of horrible life-threatening danger was lingering for a few more minutes before it disappearedpletely.
"Cough... Cough... Cough... What the hell is that?" Tang Li Xue murmured as she stopped holding her breath and coughed violently, even her face turned really pale.
"Nyaw~ Meow~!" Little Loki jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and stared at her full of worry.
"It is okay. I am all right." Tang Li Xue said as she tried to put a gentle smile while patting Little Loki''s tiny furry head.
After calming herself down and taking some time to appease Little Loki too, Tang Li Xue approached the entrance of the spacious hall again and stuck out her head to look at what had just threatened her just now.
After looking around for a while, she finally saw a different-looking wasp nested on the wide tform at the top of the royal jelly pool. There were also many sapphire eggs scattered around that different-looking wasp.
This different-looking wasp was five times bigger than the other normal Sapphire Armored Wasps, and the color of its armor was also a lot darker but shinier than them.
''Oh, my God... I almost forget that royal jelly is supposed to be the special food prepared for the queen bee... or the queen wasp since they need more nutritious food forying eggs.'' Tang Li Xue finally remembered a little bit ofmon knowledge about royal jelly.
As if sensing Tang Li Xue''s stare, the Sapphire Wasp Queen nced suspiciously at the tunnel where Tang Li Xue hide.
The feeling of life-threatening danger once again pressed on Tang Li Xue''s [Spirit Perception], so she quickly jumped back andid down on the floor again while holding her breath and used her [Art of Concealment] to suppress her presence to the lowest possible.
''Holy sh*t! So the dangerous feeling I sense from before was really from her!'' Tang Li Xue cursed in her heart.
''Damn monster! With that kind of monster guarding the royal jelly pool, how the hell I can steal the royal jelly under that monster nose and its armies?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in frustration and despair.
Not to mention Tang Li Xue, even Little Loki did not dare to make any sound carelessly under the threatening pressure of the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
Although Little Loki was not afraid of Sapphire Wasp Queen, but it was not a fool.
From the aura and pressure it emitted, this Sapphire Wasp Queen was clearly a lot more powerful than the White Feathered Giant Owl that Little Loki had faced before.
Little Loki knew that it could not even win against White Feathered Giant Owl let alone against this Sapphire Wasp Queen and its tens of thousands of armies.
If it recklessly jumped out from their hiding ce and tried to fight against this Sapphire Wasp Queen head-on to take the royal jelly, it was the same as asking to be beaten!
Little Loki itself has enough abilities to escape but it might drag Tang Li Xue into huge trouble, and she might even get killed because of it.
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue and Little Loki, the Sapphire Wasp Queen did not n to let it go easily this time, and it ordered many patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps to check at where Tang Li Xue and Little Loki hide right now.
Chapter 476: Tang Li Xue’s Crazy Plan!
Chapter 476: Tang Li Xue¡¯s Crazy n!
When Tang Li Xue sensed that more than one hundred Sapphire Armored Wasps were flying in neat formation toward the tunnel where she hid, she was startled and began to panic.
''Damn it! Did that Sapphire Wasp Queen discover us? No way, right? She would have sent more Sapphire Armored Wasps to catch us if she really already discovered us.'' Tang Li Xue''s mind deduced fast.
Surprisingly, she was still clear-headed, even though she was already in a dire situation.
''Oh, I get it! That Sapphire Wasp Queen should only vaguely feel it was being stared at by us before. Aiss, this Sapphire Wasp Queen is really such a troublesome monster! We were only staring at it for a few seconds, and it was from so far away, but it could still sense us?!'' Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
Tang Li Xue swiftly hugged Little Loki and brought it to retreat farther away from the tunnel connected with the spacious hall''s entrance with her.
But Tang Li Xue felt it was still far from enough since the one hundred patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps ordered by the Sapphire Wasp Queen might still discover her and Little Loki.
She and Little Loki would undoubtedly get caught sooner orter if the one hundred Sapphire Armored Wasps kept checking this entire tunnel carefully inch by inch, so her brain kept thinking of the best way out.
''This is not good... I do not want to keep wasting my time ying cat and mouse with these Sapphire Armored Wasps. This is the worst situation!'' Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as sheined in her heart.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath. She pinched her chin and started to think more carefully: ''Fuuh, calm down, Tang Li Xue... Hmm, rather than keep hiding and running away like this, I prefer to be more offensive and aggressive! Is it possible if we just forcefully take the royal jelly and run away as quickly as possible from here? But... how?''
In Tang Li Xue''s opinion, ''Forcefully'' taking the royal jelly in front of those ten thousand Sapphire Armored Wasps and their queen was almost an impossible mission!
It was the same as asking to be publicly executed on the spot!
Just when Tang Li Xue''s mind was in a mess, and she was almost ready to give up...
Little Loki suddenly jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s embrace and growled angrily at her: "Nyaw, meow, grrr...."
It seems Little Loki was angered by Tang Li Xue''s hesitation.
Then Little Loki dashed back toward the tightly guarded spacious hall without caring about Tang Li Xue''s opinion.
"Wait! Little Loki, what do you want to do?! Come back here now!" Tang Li Xue almost shouted out loud at Little Loki in a worried tone, but she quickly controlled her voice''s volume, so the nearby patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps would not hear her voice.
Tang Li Xue quickly chased after Little Loki before it did something ridiculous and got found out by the patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps.
However, the nearby patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps were not stupid.
They immediately realized where Tang Li Xue made amotion and quickly flew toward the dark tunnel where Tang Li Xue and Little Loki currently hid.
When the patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps met face to face with Little Loki, Little Loki mercilesslyunched a series of attacks toward them before they could do anything!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]!
More than ten patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps that came toward Little Loki were locked by Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] in an instant.
Just like Tang Li Xue in the second trial to enter Myriad Foxes Academy before, these patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps could not move, and all of their senses were sealed.
After all, these Sapphire Armored Wasps were far from as powerful as the white-feathered giant owl or the Sapphire Wasp Queen was, so Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] could still seal their senses and movement for quite some time.
Little Loki used another of its skill shortly after that without giving any chance for the patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps to grasp what just happened to them!
[Instant Teleportation]!
Little Loki''s little furry ck figure instantly vanished and appeared again right in front of the patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps.
Then Little Loki opened its tiny mouth as wide as it could toward them...
[Heaven''s Devour]!
Like a tiny ck hole suddenly opened in Little Loki''s tiny mouth, the surrounding spiritual energy, and even the surrounding space were trembling as they got sucked into Little Loki''s tiny mouth.
More than ten patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps that were previously bounded by Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] also got sucked one by one into Little Loki''s tiny mouth.
After eating all of the ten patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps, Little Loki burped and licked its lips, but it still felt unsatisfied.
All of these had happened in front of Tang Li Xue''s eyes!
Tang Li Xue waspletely stunned silly.
Tang Li Xue knew that Little Loki was very powerful as pure-blooded Tao Tie since it could even fight back and forth for a while against the white-feathered giant owl before.
But she did not know that all of Little Loki''s abilities would be this powerful!
After all, Tang Li Xue could not even move under the pressure of the white-feathered giant owl previously, so she could not observe the battle between Little Loki and the white-feathered giant owl clearly.
"Little Loki, you..." Tang Li Xue waspletely taken aback and did not know what she should say to Little Loki now.
While Little Loki stared back at Tang Li Xue nervously. It was afraid that Tang Li Xue would be frightened or even disgusted by its dreadful abilities.
Tang Li Xue sensed Little Loki''s mixed feelings, so she slowly raised her thumb and smiled gently at Little Loki.
Then she suddenly pointed her thumb downward and berated Little Loki without any mercy: "What? You want to get praised after doing something reckless and stupid like that?! Dream on, little guy! If you dare to do something dangerous like that again next time, I will surely spank hard your a*s!"
However, Tang Li Xue actually whined in her heart: ''Holyshit! This little crazy cat could really do all of those?! How the hell it can be so powerful when it is still only a cub?! Damn it, I am very envious~!''
Little Loki rolled its ck eyes in disdain andined back to Tang Li Xue: "Nyaw~ Meow~ Meow~"
"Eeeeehhh, what?! You want to be bait to buy some time for me to take the royal jelly and the honey?! No, no, no, no... Mommy will never agree... err... There is no way I will let you do something dangerous like that!"
Yes, Little Loki showed its fearsome abilities to Tang Li Xue because it wanted to suggest itself as bait to attract the attention of all Sapphire Armored Wasps including the Sapphire Wasp Queen in the tightly guarded spacious hall.
But how could Tang Li Xue let Little Loki take that kind of extremely dangerous role?!
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki did not want to back down, so they started to argue with each other.
Little Loki: Rawr~ Mew~ Meow~ Nyaw~! (I have [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] to control all of those smaller insects!)
Tang Li Xue: "No, no, no... that thing only works for the Sapphire Armored Wasps! What about the queen? It will not work, right?"
d¦Á- |m
Little Loki: "Meow~ Mew~ Meow~ Nyaw~!" (But I also have [Instant Teleportation] so I can retreat anytime!)
Tang Li Xue: "So what?! I also have [Shadow sh] so I can escape anytime too!"
Little Loki: "Mew~ Mew~ Nyaow~!" (Can you withstand the huge pressure from that huge insect? You cannot, right?! You cannot even use any of your divine abilities here!)
Tang Li Xue:.....
Keep arguing like this was not the right solution.
Moreover, the other patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps would realize sooner orter that ten or so of theirrades had already gone missing.
After pondering it for a while, Tang Li Xue finally got a good idea.
''System?'' Tang Li Xue tried tomunicate with her system to trigger a quest again.
Ding!
----------------------------------------------------
[Quest: (Mission Impossible) Collect the royal jelly and honey in the nest of Sapphire Armored Wasps!]
[Difficulty: Hard]
[Reward: ording to the amount of royal jelly and honey you collect. The more royal jelly and honey you collect, the richer the reward you would receiveter.]
----------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue: ''?!''
''Woah, nice! Finally sessfully triggered a new quest~! Where are you all this time, system?! I thought you got frightened and already ran away from me because of that fat bird before!'' Tang Li Xueined in delight.
As usual, her system would never reply to any unimportant question so Tang Li Xue started to think again: ''Only Hard level difficulty huh... Not as hard as I expect! But how could we...''
In Tang Li Xue''s estimation before, the difficulty should be at least Nightmare difficulty or higher since the royal jelly and the honey were not only guarded by ten thousand Sapphire Armored Wasps but also the spirit beast level, the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone with excitement as she got enlightened: ''Wait a minute... Little Loki''s abilities... and me with the help of [Stealth Talisman +3] and [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3]... Also adding several evil spirits from the [Scepter of Disaster]... I get it! Uwehehehe, this quest might be really not as hard as I thought it would be before!''
Tang Li Xue nced at Little Loki and nagged it again with a resolute tone: "Okay, I agree. BUT... you must follow all my ns to detail! And also, you must retreat if you face any unexpected dangerter! Do you get it?!"
Then Tang Li Xue hugged Little Loki closely and whispered her n right into its furry little ears.
Little Loki''s expression became strange when it heard Tang Li Xue''s n.
It was a crazy n... and very messy, but somehow, Little Loki concluded it might really work wonders in this kind of situation.
Tang Li Xue took out her [Scepter of Disaster], some of her [Stealth Talisman +3] and [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3], then gave them to Little Loki.
"You can go rampage now, Little Loki! But you must always remember to always stay alert and be really careful! Your safety should always be of the utmost importance!" Tang Li Xue smiled while encouraging Little Loki, but she also did not forget to remind Little Loki to stay safe.
Little Loki meowed at Tang Li Xue and licked her tender white cheek softly, then it jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s embrace and turned invisible once again.
Tang Li Xue could not help getting uneasy because the protagonist this time was Little Loki since only Little Loki could remain unaffected by the terrifying pressure from the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
Chapter 477: Chaotic Battlefield!
Chapter 477: Chaotic Battlefield!
''Anyway, it was already toote to retreat or regret it now.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head, and her topaz blue eyes shone with firmness.
Little Loki had been very greedy for the Sapphire Armored Wasps'' royal jelly and the honey.
If Tang Li Xue decided to retreat from here without doing anything, Little Loki might pretend toply with her wish at first, but it would surely sneak in here again by itselfter when Tang Li Xue did not pay attention to it.
Do not look at Little Loki always obedient to Tang Li Xue, but it was all because Little Loki acknowledged Tang Li Xue as its closepanion, not as its master!
Moreover, Tang Li Xue was also in dire need of this royal jelly and honey to increase her level quickly so she could evolve into [Rare] grade beast or beast lord as soon as possible.
Since both Little Loki and Tang Li Xue wanted this royal jelly and honey so badly, Tang Li Xue decided to use her system to determine the level of danger and difficulty of this stealing... cough, cough... I mean treasure hunting quest.
If it was hard-level difficulty or below, she would do it.
If it was nightmare-level difficulty or above, she would immediately retreat even if she had to tie Little Loki by her side and drag it back to Myriad Foxes Academy right here and now.
Thankfully, it was not as dangerous and difficult as she imagined.
Uhhh... To be exact, it was not that dangerous and difficult if Little Loki did it... If Tang Li Xue did it alone, the difficulty level would certainly be above Nightmare. It seems that everything was already calcted by her system.
Not long after that, loud sounds ofmotion reverberated not far from where Tang Li Xue hid.
"Okay, so it has already begun! Good luck, Little Loki" Tang Li Xue murmured as she took [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] from her space pouch and stuck it on her own body.
.....
...
.
After Little Loki went separated from Tang Li Xue, it immediately dashed toward the nearby patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps first!
Little Loki''s move was so fast that it looked like a sh of ck shadow!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Although Little Loki''s body was tiny like a cute little ck kitten, but its strength could not be trifled at all.
The several patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps did not even have any time to react, and they got pped flying easily by Little Loki until they heavily crashed onto the nest wall behind them.
Of course, those several Sapphire Armored Wasps did not get hurt at all since their most remarkable feature was their defense.
But Little Loki did not care about them and started to dash toward the spacious hall where the Sapphire Wasp Queen rested!
The other nearby patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps quickly realized that theirrades were getting attacked since the crashing sound was quite loud just now.
It did not take long before the more than ny or so patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps to got assembled, and all of them hastily chased after Little Loki.
However, no one knew that Little Loki silently stuck [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] onto several of them when it pped them before!
More than ny Sapphire Armored Wasps chased after Little Loki from behind toward the spacious hall, and they did not hesitate to shoot their sharp stinger toward Little Loki!
But Little Loki easily dodged all of their flying sharp stingers with running in a zig-zag pattern.
POP~ POP~ POP~ POP~
The flying sharp stingers pierced deep into the hard floor and wall of the nest.
One could imagine that if even one of these flying sharp stingers were to hit anyone''s body, it would surely leave a fist-sized hole in his/her body!
Once again, no one was aware that behind all of them, a weird Sapphire Armored Wasp silently followed all of them.
All Sapphire Armored Wasps were usually moving around by flying, but this weird Sapphire Armored Wasp was walking on the ground instead.
Yes, this weird Sapphire Armored Wasp was actually Tang Li Xue in disguise by using her [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3]!
Tang Li Xue''s task this time was only trying her best to mix with the crowd of Sapphire Armored Wasps in the midst of chaos, then she only needs to grab the royal jelly and honey as much as she could while Little Loki was attracting their attention and kept them busyter!
As Little Loki entered the spacious hall where the Sapphire Wasp Queen rested, it immediately activated the [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] that it already stuck on several Sapphire Armored Wasps before!
SWOOOSH~!
In that instant, the appearance of those several Sapphire Armored Wasps changed into ck little kittens, extremely identical to Little Loki itself!
So, at the same time when Little Loki and the chasing Sapphire Armored Wasps entered the spacious hall, it looked as if several Little Lokis assaulted the core of Sapphire Armored Wasps'' nest together!
''This is the timing! Little Loki do it now!'' Tang Li Xue whispered to Little Loki through their mental connection.
Before Tang Li Xue followed them all to enter the spacious hall, she quickly used one of her martial arts to add chaos!
[Water Mirage]!
Tang Li Xue''s body was split into many in an instant and also charged into the spacious hall!
Tang Li Xue was currently in Sapphire Armored Wasp''s form, but it was only an illusion after all, so her [Water Mirage] clones were still her normal slender feminine figure with a silver fox tail and a pair of silver furry ears.
Concurrently, Little Loki took out the [Scepter of Disaster] stored in the space pouch worn on its neck and hastily released all of the evil spirits [Scepter of Disaster] imprisoned inside it!
"GRRRRR~! ROOOAAAARRRR~!!!"
Many evil spirits in different forms were pouring out in that instant, and they started to attack whoever they had seen indiscriminately!
But since there were more than ten thousand Sapphire Armored Wasps in this spacious hall, so almost all evil spirits were attacking the Sapphire Armored Wasps.
Thus, there were suddenly four groups in this spacious hall: the Sapphire Armored Wasps, several ck Little Lokis, many evil spirits, and Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones!
The situation became extremely chaotic during this moment!
The previous patrolling Sapphire Armored Wasps were still chasing after the several ck Little Lokis to catch them.
Evil spirits were brutally pouncing and biting at the nearby Sapphire Armored Wasps like an army of hungry ghosts.
While Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones were... err, well... just running around and cheering for Little Loki since they did not have anybat capabilities.
All of those evil spirits could be said perfectly countered Sapphire Armored Wasps.
Why?
First, it was because evil spirits were not living creatures, so any physical attacks would not be effective against them. Meanwhile, all of the Sapphire Armored Wasps could only do physical attacks with both of their sharp sickle arms and sharp stinger.
Second, some of the attacks from evil spirits could bypass the solid physical defense of Sapphire Armored Wasps and directly attack their soul!
In short, the evil spirits could hold an advantage in the battle against the Sapphire Armored Wasps despite their overwhelming number.
Of course, there was an exception...
A Sapphire Armored Wasp with absolute power, enough to crush all of the evil spirits alone...
The Sapphire Wasp Queen!
WWEEEEENGGGG~!!! BBBUUUUUUUZZZ~!!!
The Sapphire Wasp Queen was currently very angry.
Imagine if many unknown people were abruptly barging into your room when you were sleeping, then attacking your family members without any clear reason.
Yes, that was what Sapphire Wasp Queen felt right now.
Sapphire Wasp Queen''s huge majestic figure pped its transparent wing rapidly in anger and let out a loud buzzing sound!
Terrifying enormous pressure suddenly pressed several ck Little Lokis, all evil spirits, and Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones onto the ground!
At the same time, the real Little Loki also activated one of its powerful abilities...
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Sapphire Wasp Queen''s terrifying pressure came from its condensed aura shed violently against Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]!
The battle between them entered a deadlock for now, and no one wanted to back down!
d¦Á-|m
Little Loki wielded its abilities much more skillfully than thest time it fought against the white-feathered giant owl.
Little Loki was only a newly hatched cub after all right now, so it extremelycked in terms of battle knowledge and experience, but it could grow and learn very quickly each time it fought!
Both Little Loki and Sapphire Wasp Queen were unaffected, but all creatures around them were the ones who suffered.
However, there was a third creature, who alsopletely unaffected by their battle in this hall...
Of course, it was Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue ignored the exciting scuffle between them and cleverly stuck close to the wall of the spacious hall from the beginning.
She moved slowly on the edge of the spacious hall, so she would not get affected by their battle in order to secretly get close to the royal jelly pool.
By using thebination of [Stealth Talisman +3] and [Art of Concealment] to remain invisible, plus [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] to disguise as Sapphire Armored Wasp, even Sapphire Wasp Queen did not realize that she secretly got close to the royal jelly pool.
Naturally, it was also thanks to Little Loki since it tried its best to attract the attention of the Sapphire Wasp Queen, so the Sapphire Wasp Queen did not have any time to pay attention to her or the royal jelly pool.
Tang Li Xue was very excited when she saw the royal jelly pool right in front of her.
Then she suddenly realized a very important problem right now...
"Uhhh... Wait a minute... where is the container to store the royal jelly?" Tang Li Xue muttered with an absentminded tone.
Chapter 478: Little Loki’s Aggravation!
Chapter 478: Little Loki¡¯s Aggravation!
Tang Li Xue started to panic.
She never thought of the problem of the container to store royal jelly and honey because she usually just dumped all of her items, treasures, and her harvest into her space pouch!
d¦Á- |m
But right now... Are you really sure to pour liquid things such as royal jelly and honey into the space pouch just like that?
Not to mention that the royal jelly and honey would get mixed, but there were also her clothes, underwear, weapons, food seasoning, rations, and other daily necessities stored in her space pouch!
If all of those got mixed with each other... even Tang Li Xue''s stomach began to churn just by imagining it.
As for throwing away all the content of her space pouch and recing it with royal jelly and honey... well, forget it. Because there were many important items stored inside her space pouch, such as a bottle of Foundation Establishment Pill, the burnt-out scroll, and the thick book from Heavenly Sword Immortal Inheritance.
"What to do... What to do...is there something... something I can use as a container?" Tang Li Xue muttered with an anxious tone while rummaging through her space pouch.
Then Tang Li Xue took out her [Frost Swan Sword] from her space pouch with a pair of sparkling eyes while saying: "AHHH, yes! Why don''t I just dig the entire pool at once?! With these pools as the container, it should not be a problem to store the royal jelly and the honey in my space pouch!"
Then Tang Li Xue started to poke and gouge the corner of the royal jelly''s pool...
The idea was beautiful, but the reality was harsh.
If the pool could be easily dug, then logically, this entire hive should be more fragile than the well-protected pool.
But since this entire hive was almost like an indestructible fortress, then reasonably, the royal jelly''s pool should be more unbreakable than even the hive''s wall!
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Little Loki was still busy fighting against the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen seems to slowly losing its patience, so it decided to get more serious right now!
The Sapphire Wasp Queen pped its transparent wings more rapidly, then its huge figure suddenly disappeared from Little Loki''s vision!
[sh and sh]!
With this [sh and sh] divine ability, the Sapphire Wasp Queen could increase its flying speed and attack speed by several times in a short time.
Little Loki''s danger perception was screaming to warn it of iing lethal danger, and Little Loki quickly activated its [Instant Teleportation].
When Little Loki''s tiny ck figure vanished...
SHRINGGGGG~!!!
There was suddenly ten meters long pit in the ce where Little Loki stood before!
Even the deep incision was as smooth as the mirror.
It seems this Sapphire Armored Wasp''s hive was not as unbreakable as imagined.
At least under the sickle arms of the Sapphire Wasp Queen, it could cut this entire hive like a sharp knife cut through butter and mud!
Little Loki''s spine went cold when it saw the smooth incision on the ground.
If that attack managed to graze Little Loki even just a little, then its tiny furry body would surely be cut in two by now!
Little Loki started to regret its reckless act as bait.
But it was already toote for that, so it could only grit its teeth and buy the time as long as it could for Tang Li Xue.
Yet, when Little Loki secretly peeked at what Tang Li Xue did right now, it almost had a heart attack in that instant.
Yes, Tang Li Xue was still poking and gouging the corner of the royal jelly pool!
Little Loki really wanted to run toward Tang Li Xue and cried out: ''Sister Xue, what the hell are you doing right now?! This... This is really not the time for you to y around, okay?!''
Unfortunately, the Sapphire Wasp Queen would never give Little Loki any chance toin to Tang Li Xue.
Looking that Little Loki managed to avoid its swift lethal attack, Sapphire Wasp Queen became even angrier.
Sapphire Wasp Queen felt Little Loki trample its dignity as queen in front of all of its subordinates!
It was the same as saying: "Hey, you are really a waste queen. You cannot even kill a little kitten like me! What a weak and useless big boss!"
Sapphire Wasp Queen was fuming in rage, and its huge figure disappear once again from everyone''s vision!
Little Loki sensed it again, but it did not know when and where the Sapphire Wasp Queen would attack, so it could only activate its [Instant Teleportation] again.
SHRINGGG~!!! SHRINGGG~!!! SHRINGGG~!!!
This time, the Sapphire Wasp Queen attacked three times in a row with its extremely sharp sickle arms!
Sapphire Wasp Queen even mercilessly chased after Little Loki after it teleported and kept attacking!
It instantly became the battle of speed versus teleportation!
However, Little Loki was clearly at a huge disadvantage since it could only rely on its danger perception to barely avoid the rapid lethal attacks from the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
Moreover, Little Loki could only fight defensively because it could not lock Sapphire Wasp Queen''s attack timing and location precisely, so it could not use its [Heaven''s Devour] to try to swallow the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
Little Loki growled and gnashed its teeth in annoyance, then it decided to use [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]!
Little Loki''s intention was at least to slow down the Sapphire Wasp Queen. After that, Little Loki just needed to find a chance to use its [Heaven''s Devour] to swallow the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
Sadly, Sapphire Wasp Queen did not fall for Little Loki''s trick.
It immediately used its aura pressure to counter Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] and the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s aura pressure collided violently!
Yet, the result was just like before.
Both of them shed and negated against each other.
Little Loki and Sapphire Wasp Queen were unaffected, but the others, such as the Sapphire Armored Wasps and the evil spirits, were not so lucky.
They almost crumbled apart under the shing shockwave.
Of course, Tang Li Xue''s fragile [Water Mirage] clones were the first to suffer. They were already shattered and turned into puddles of water since the first sh.
As for several fake Little Lokis, they were also already shredded to pieces long ago by both the Sapphire Armored Wasps and the evil spirits.
Until the end, they did not even know why their ownrades and their enemies would gang up on them together first.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue did now know about Little Loki''s frustration, and she also did not have any free time to care about what happened on the battlefield.
"UUUURRRYYAAAHHH~!!! Come on! Move out!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth as she stabbed her [Frost Swan Sword] into the corner of the royal jelly pool and tried to forcefully pry it out.
Tang Li Xue already tried her best and used all her strength to dig the royal jelly pool in these few minutes of time, but all of her efforts werepletely useless.
It was simply impossible for Tang Li Xue to dig out the entire pool.
Well... Unless she had great strength equal to Sapphire Wasp Queen and its extremely sharp sickle arm... then it might be possible.
"I, I cannot hold on anymore... Cough, cough, cough... Huff, huff, huff... Let me... Let me take a rest for a bit..." Tang Li Xue bowed down and muttered while panting heavily as she held her [Frost Swan Sword] and used it as a cane.
Tang Li Xue rummaged through her space pouch again to look for some drink to quench her thirst.
Who knew Tang Li Xue could unintentionally find an item that could solve her current predicament?!
An expensive-looking ring dropped out from inside her clothes and rolled on the ground, then Tang Li Xue slowly picked it out with a trembling hand.
Yes, this was Elder Yang''s spatial ring!
"I am really so stupid! How could I forget that I still have this thing?!" Tang Li Xue eximed with an excited tone while pping her forehead.
Then Tang Li Xue hurriedly threw all of the items in Elder Yang''s spatial ring into her space pouch!
When she transferred Elder Yang''s items into her space pouch, Tang Li Xue also found another interesting item among them.
A jade-like green gourd!
"This thing seems... a bit familiar... Wait a minute, don''t tell me that this is... a spatial gourd?! Just like Teacher Bai Wuchen''s wine gourd!" Tang Li Xue cried out in surprise while inspecting the green gourd closely.
When Tang Li Xue tried to unplug the green gourd to inspect what was stored inside it, the pungent smell of wine instantly wafted out from the gourd.
Tang Li Xue felt dizzy when she identally sniffed the pungent smell of wine, but she still felt extremely excited.
She often saw Teacher Bai Wuchen drinking wine from his gourd, and it was like a bottomless barrel.
Just like the spatial ring and space pouch, this spatial gourd was also a space-type treasure.
However, this spatial gourd was specialized for storing liquid form treasures!
Actually, it should be impossible to store the spatial gourd inside the spatial ring.
It could easily be seen that this spatial gourd was very special from that.
But Tang Li Xue would not think too deeply about it since this spatial gourd was what she exactly need right now!
Tang Li Xue hastily poured out the wine inside the gourd.
Thankfully, the wine inside the gourd was not that much, so it did not take long for Tang Li Xue to empty the gourd.
If Elder Yang saw what Tang Li Xue had done just now, he would probably spurt out several mouthfuls of blood.
This wine called [Forgotten Fragrance] was made from many treasured fruits and precious ingredients, and it was actually as precious as the royal jelly from this Sapphire Armored Wasp hive.
In the eyes of wine addicts such as Teacher Bai Wuchen and Elder Yang, this [Forgotten Fragrance] wine would surely be much more valuable than even the royal jelly!
Well... Tang Li Xue could only pray that Elder Yang would not ask her to return this [Forgotten Fragrance] wine to himter, or Tang Li Xue might need to sell herself to Elder Yang to pay for it.
Tang Li Xue still did not know about that, and she was still happily using the spatial gourd to collect the royal jelly while using the spatial ring to collect the honey.
Then she suddenly realized something strange...
"Eh, why has it be so quiet all of a sudden?" Tang Li Xue whispered with a puzzled tone while raising her head and ncing at the battlefield in the center of the spacious hall to check.
However, her stare was met with a pair of huge insect eyes instead!
"Holysh*t?!" Tang Li Xue blurted out loudly and jumped up in shock.
Chapter 479: So Close Yet So Far!
Chapter 479: So Close Yet So Far!
The Sapphire Wasp Queen had already noticed the suspicious things Tang Li Xue was doing since a few moments ago.
The reason why the Sapphire Wasp Queen did not attack Tang Li Xue right away was because Tang Li Xue was currently using [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] to disguise as Sapphire Armored Wasp right now.
However, Sapphire Wasp Queen immediately realized that Tang Li Xue was not one of its subordinates when Tang Li Xue identally shouted out in surprise just now!
WWEEEEENGGGG~!!! BBBUUUUUUUZZZ~!!! BBBUUUUUUUZZZ~!!!
The Sapphire Wasp Queen''s rage had reached the limit.
A heavy majestic pressure suddenly pressed onto Tang Li Xue''s slender figure.
But Tang Li Xue already had plenty of painful experiences about this move when she fought against the white-feathered giant owl previously.
So, of course, Tang Li Xue would not just stand there to receive that enormous aura pressure.
[Shadow sh]!
It was already toote for Tang Li Xue to dodge, so she could only activate one of her equipment skills!
(Shadow sh: Teleport to any shadow up to 100 meters away in an instant. Cooldown: 10 minutes.)
Tang Li Xue instantly teleported to the farthest dark area she could reach!
"Damn it! That was close!" Tang Li Xue groaned while wiping the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.
If that enormous pressure managed to press Tang Li Xue down, then she would surely get crippled in that instant just like when she faced the white-feathered giant owl before.
Tang Li Xue''s mind quickly calmed down under this critical situation, and she immediately scanned her surrounding first.
Tang Li Xue nced at the green gourd on the royal jelly pool.
The green gourd was still hovering above the royal jelly pool and rapidly sucking the royal jelly, but it should not take long for the green gourd to finish its job.
''Where is Little Loki? Don''t tell me that Little Loki is already...'' Tang Li Xue worriedly thought as she looked toward where Little Loki and Sapphire Wasp Queen fought just now.
Currently, Little Loki walked limply toward Tang Li Xue with its tongue sticking out.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw Little Loki was unharmed.
But it seemed that Little Loki waspletely exhausted because it was forced to keep using [Instant Teleportation] continuously to barely avoid Sapphire Wasp Queen''s swift lethal attack before.
Sapphire Wasp Queen did not n to let Tang Li Xue go with just one attack, so its huge body vanished again from everyone''s view as it activated its divine ability once again!
[sh and sh]!
Tang Li Xue had already long been wary of Sapphire Wasp Queen''s every move.
She hastily raised her [Frost Swan Sword] nted in front of her and took the defensive stance to defend herself.
Tang Li Xue closed her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes, and her spirit perception expanded to its maximum range as she tried to capture every change and move around her!
"It''s here!" Tang Li Xue eximed while she tilted her [Frost Swan Sword] to the right side.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Redirection Flow!
Tang Li Xue tried to redirect Sapphire Wasp Queen''s powerful lethal attack to the other direction with this [Redirection Flow], but she still underestimated the strength difference between herself and Sapphire Wasp Queen.
CCLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s slim figure flew backward more than ten meters like a cannon ball until she heavily crashed onto the hive wall.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and gritted her pearl white teeth as she felt a sharp pain run up on her spine.
Tang Li Xue hurriedly lifted her [Frost Swan Sword] again, but then...
CLINK~!
Tang Li Xue was stunned silly while staring at her [Frost Swan Sword] that was already broken in half.
Yes, her [Frost Swan Sword] was cut in two under the sickle arm attack from the Sapphire Wasp Queen!
"Eeeeeehhhh?! It... it broke in two just like that?! What kind of crappy product is this sword?! I mustin back to that tomb owner old man if I have a chanceter!" Tang Li Xueined with a tone filled with distress.
However, the effect of Sapphire Wasp Queen''s powerful lethal attack did not just end there...
Crimson color started spreading on Tang Li Xue''s pure white dress from her right shoulder to her left slender waist.
PPPUUUUUUUUUUUFFFF~!!!
-29,920!
[Arcane Tunic]''s durability: 384/500!
d¦Á- |m
Tang Li Xue''s crimson blood spurted out profusely from her wounds onto the ground, and she coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood.
But the equipment effect of her [Arcane Tunic] quickly triggered to heal her wound a bit.
+4,488!
(Arcane Shroud: Absorb 15% of the damage taken and turn it into HP.)
''Damn, more than 29,000 damage?! That is almost a third of my overall HP! Although, I did not have enough time to use [Arcane Barrier] just now, but I already used [Frost Swan Sword] plus [Redirection Flow] to parry its attack!'' Tang Li Xue thought in shock as she muffled her groan in pain.
Moreover, she was also wearing inner armor, [Arcane Tunic], under her graceful white dress, so around half of the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s attack power was blocked by her [Arcane Tunic].
Without all of those, Tang Li Xue''s slim figure would already split in two by Sapphire Wasp Queen''s powerful lethal attack!
Tang Li Xue hastily took out [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from her space pouch and stuck it on her chest to recover herself.
Sapphire Wasp Queen saw that Tang Li Xue managed to barely survive its first attack in astonishment.
Then it became even more irritated, so it decided tounch another attack to finish off Tang Li Xue!
Little Loki was shocked when it saw Tang Li Xue''s blood sttered out on the ground.
While Little Loki felt extremely worried at Tang Li Xue''s serious injury and nned to approach Tang Li Xue to check her wound, it sensed that Sapphire Wasp Queen wasunching another finishing attack toward Tang Li Xue!
Little Loki became extremely angry!
Little Loki swiftly used its [Instant Teleportation] again to teleport right in front of Tang Li Xue!
Then Little Loki opened its tiny mouth as wide as it could...
[Heaven''s Devour]!
Sapphire Wasp Queen''s huge silhouette already vanished one moment ago!
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki did not know where Sapphire Wasp Queen''s attack woulde from, but both of them knew that Sapphire Wasp Queen''s target would be Tang Li Xue this time!
Sapphire Wasp Queen might look down on Tang Li Xue, so it decided to attack Tang Li Xue head-on from the front to finish her off as soon as possible, so Sapphire Wasp Queen could focus back on killing Little Loki!
But at that time, Little Loki suddenly appeared in front of Tang Li Xue and used its [Heaven''s Devour]!
This whole situation was like: ''an insect flying into the fire''!
Unfortunately, Sapphire Wasp Queen was not like the other brainless insect...
Sapphire Wasp Queen immediately realized that something was not right when it sensed a powerful suction power like a tiny ck holeing from Little Loki''s tiny mouth.
So, Sapphire Wasp Queen quickly braked by pping its transparent wings faster and countering it by flying backward.
Despite that, Sapphire Wasp Queen''s reaction was a bit toote since it was already going too close to Little Loki!
So, even though Sapphire Wasp Queen already tried its best to get away from Little Loki, but it still got sucked closer and closer toward Little Loki!
Heavily injured Tang Li Xue felt her slim body was losing strength, so she kneeled on the ground to recover for a while.
However, she managed to see the green gourd that had already been filled with royal jelly was also flying toward Little Loki because of its suction power!
Tang Li Xue hastily jumped forward to catch the green gourd before the green gourd got sucked into Little Loki''s mouth.
Tang Li Xue''s sudden action shocked Little Loki very much.
Little Loki could only regretfully terminate its [Heaven''s Devour] before identally swallowing Tang Li Xue.
It was a bit unfortunate since Little Loki was already so close to devouring the Sapphire Wasp Queen just now.
"Let''s go, Little Loki! Our business here is already over! Let''s get out of here fast!" Tang Li Xue said to Little Loki as she picked up Little Loki into her embrace.
Sapphire Wasp Queen wanted to take this opportunity to attack both of Tang Li Xue and Little Loki at once, but Tang Li Xue swiftly took out something from her space pouch and threw it toward the Sapphire Wasp Queen!
Yes, what Tang Li Xue had thrown was her several [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3]!
BBOOOOOMM~!!! BBOOOOOMM~!!! BBOOOOOMM~!!!
These several explosions might not be strong enough to injure Sapphire Wasp Queen, but it was more than enough to blind it for a few moments!
Tang Li Xue took this opportunity to take the two broken parts of her [Frost Swan Sword] and then threw them into her space pouch before she hurriedly executed [Snow Dance Step] and dashed toward the entrance of the spacious hall.
WWEEEEENGGGG~!!!
Sapphire Wasp Queen was pping its wings rapidly to clear the fire and smoke!
But after its vision became clear, Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were nowhere to be found in this spacious hall anymore.
WWEEEEENGGGG~!!! BBBUUUUUUUZZZ~!!! BBBUUUUUUUZZZ~!!!
Sapphire Wasp Queen buzzed in extreme anger as it ordered its subordinates to chase after Tang Li Xue and Little Loki!
The armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps in this spacious hall flew unsteadily to chase after Tang Li Xue and Little Loki, but all of them crashed against each other or crashed onto the nearby wall instead.
Sapphire Wasp Queen was stunned by all of its subordinates'' strangeness.
Sapphire Wasp Queen became even angrier and med all of it on Tang Li Xue and Little Loki.
Well... Actually, no one had expected something like this to happen, even Tang Li Xue and Little Loki.
The reason for these Sapphire Armored Wasps'' strangeness was because of the [Forgotten Fragrance] wine that Tang Li Xue dumped out from the green gourd before.
Yes, those Sapphire Armored Wasps were drunk because of the scent of [Forgotten Fragrance] wine!
It wasmon knowledge that Wasps and bees have an extremely sensitive sense of smell and taste.
If Tang Li Xue did not learn [Art of Concealment] to cover her feminine sweet body scent, she would already get caught long ago before she could even enter this hive.
So, just the smell of an extremely high grade wine like this [Forgotten Fragrance] was enough to make them drunk for a few hours.
Of course, Sapphire Wasp Queen was an exception since it was very powerful, so the smell of [Forgotten Fragrance] would not affect it at all.
Sapphire Wasp Queen stared at the bloodstain on the ground with its huge insect eyes, and the light of inspiration shed inside them.
Sapphire Wasp Queen''s huge silhouette flew toward the entrance of the spacious hall too, as it followed the smell of Tang Li Xue''s blood.
Tang Li Xue might have [Art of Concealment] to conceal her track and smell, but the pungent smell of blood on her body was apletely different matter!
Unless Tang Li Xue''s heavy injuries could bepletely healed, then she took a clean bath and changed into new clean clothes, only then the pungent smell of blood on her body could be removed.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue was sprinting as fast as she could with her [Snow Dance Step].
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as she felt stinging pain from her wounds and injured internal organs.
It seems the heavy injuries that had been closed by the healing from [Talisman of Regeneration +3] were tearing open again.
But this was clearly not the time to worry about that!
Tang Li Xue knew she must get away from this hive as soon as possible before she could be besieged by the armies of ten thousand Sapphire Armored Wasps!
Chapter 480: Hot Pursuit!
Chapter 480: Hot Pursuit!
Meanwhile, Little Lokiy down weakly on Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder.
Little Loki had consumed too much energy in its battle against the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
As pure-blooded Tao Tie, Little Loki might possess powerful strength and divine abilities even though it was still a newborn cub, but it was stillpletelycking in the term of endurance.
Tao Tie''s advantage in battle was that it could quickly replenish its energy or grow stronger by devouring anything, including its enemies.
However, Little Loki did not have any chance to devour anything in the previous battle, so its energy was depleted so fast.
In short, both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were in a pretty bad state right now.
"Nyan~ Meow~ Mew~!" Little Loki feebly called Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue replied to Little Loki with a reassuring tone while panting heavily: "Huff, Huff... Don''t worry, Little Loki... I am all right."
Little Loki rolled its eyes and pointed its tiny paw toward Tang Li Xue''s space pouch hung on her left slender waist.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized what Little Loki wanted.
She quickly took out all the beast cores she stored in her space pouch and fed them to Little Loki.
Little Loki greedily devoured them all one by one, like eating peanuts.
"I take quite a lot of honey. Do you want to drink it too? How about taking a few sips of the royal jelly?" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki as she took out the green gourd and spatial ring.
Little Loki shook its furry head to reject them and fell asleep on Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder.
Sapphire Armored Wasp''s royal jelly and honey might contain a lot of energy, but Little Loki would certainly need a much longer time to digest them!
Yet, the present situation was not the right time for that since Little Loki needed to restore itsbat effectiveness as soon as possible.
d¦Á- |m
BBBUUUUUUUZZZ~!!!
Just when Tang Li Xue only slowed down a bit to feed Little Loki, a loud buzzing sound came toward her from behind!
"Sigh...Here we go again... Oh,e on! Can you give me just a little break?" Tang Li Xueined as she sped up her steps.
Unfortunately, no matter how fast Tang Li Xue sprinted, she would never be able to outrun the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
It did not take long for the Sapphire Wasp Queen to catch up with Tang Li Xue and Little Loki.
WWEEEEENGGGG~!!! BBBUUUUUUUZZZ~!!! BBBUUUUUUUZZZ~!!!
The Sapphire Wasp Queen became excited when it saw Tang Li Xue and Little Loki running right in front of it.
Tang Li Xue could sense that the Sapphire Wasp Queen had gotten closer and closer to her from behind, but she still did not have any solution for it.
"Aisss... If only I could use all of my divine abilities! I will have many ways to get out of here!" Tang Li Xue whined with a regretful tone.
Without many options from her divine abilities such as [Ethereal Form], [Energy Maniption], [Twin Moon], [Mirror of the Moon], and so on, Tang Li Xue could only struggle to survive by using her current one and only lifesaving skill...
[Water Mirage]!
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure was split into many in an instant!
Most of them split and ran toward the different intersections on the dark tunnel, but some of them were even recklessly jumping toward the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen was shocked by Tang Li Xue''s technique for a moment but that was all...
SHRINGGG~!!! SHRINGGG~!!! SHRINGGG~!!!
With several rapid swings of its extremely sharp sickle arms, those several Tang Li Xues were chopped into several pieces.
Those several Tang Li Xues were shattered into a puddle of water, but none of them were the real Tang Li Xue.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen watched as many other Tang Li Xues ran into several dark tunnels in different directions.
At first, the Sapphire Wasp Queen felt confused...
Then it decided to follow its extremely sharp sense of smell and tracked the one with the most pungent smell of blood.
Actually, all of Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones also have the smell of blood on their bodies, but the one who has the most pungent smell of blood was still the real Tang Li Xue!
The Sapphire Wasp Queen was quickly approaching the real Tang Li Xue again from behind!
"Huff... Huff... Huff... Cough, cough, this big insect is really annoying! How the hell it could know which one is the real me?!" Tang Li Xueined in annoyance while she panted in exhaustion and coughed out several mouthfuls of blood.
Even her vision started to get blurred, and her limbs felt weaker.
It seemed that too much of her blood had been spilled on the way, so she was starting to be anemic.
Meanwhile, the Sapphire Wasp Queen already arrived right behind Tang Li Xue and raised its sharp sickle arm!
Several of Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones which were running along with the real ones, quickly jumped toward the Sapphire Wasp Queen!
It was thest desperate move to stall for one or two seconds of time...
SHRINGGG~!!!
With only one clean swift sh, those several [Water Mirage] clones crumbled into a puddle of water.
They could only buy time less than a half second for the real Tang Li Xue...
Just when the Sapphire Wasp Queen wanted to sh at Tang Li Xue''s fragile looking back from behind, Little Loki suddenly opened its eerie dark eyes.
Little Loki swiftly jumped from Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder to the top of her head while ring back at the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen was shocked, and it flew backward in a hurry to keep its distance from Little Loki.
What happened before was still fresh in the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s mind!
The horror of almost getting swallowed alive by Little Loki before had be a nightmare for the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen felt that only by killing Little Loki it could wash this fear and shame.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s consciousness started to be fuzzy, but her survival instinct still urged her to keep running as fast as she could.
Fortunately, Little Loki woke up in time just now. If not, Tang Li Xue might have already been cut into two by Sapphire Wasp Queen''s extremely sharp sickle arms!
Little Loki nced worriedly at Tang Li Xue, but it did not have any spare time to ask about Tang Li Xue''s condition right now.
Sapphire Wasp Queen might not dare to get close to Little Loki, but it still has many ways to attack both Little Loki and Tang Li Xue from afar!
While keeping its distance, the Sapphire Wasp Queen pointed its buttock toward Little Loki and Tang Li Xue.
Then it shot its sharp stinger toward Tang Li Xue''s back!
But different from the sharp stinger of the ordinary Sapphire Armored Wasps, the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s sharp stinger suddenly split into many sharp stingers in an instant!
This was one of Sapphire Wasp Queen''s unique divine abilities, [Hail of Shadow Stinger]!
Little Loki waspletely undaunted. It opened its tiny mouth and activated its most powerful ability.
[Heaven''s Devour]!
Most of Sapphire Wasp Queen''s sharp stingers were sucked into Little Loki''s tiny mouth and became Little Loki''s food.
However, some of the sharp stingers collided with the hive floor and wall.
BBOOOOOMM~!!! BBOOOOOMM~!!! BBOOOOOMM~!!!
The Sapphire Wasp Queen''s sharp stingers actually created a chain of great explosions after they hit something!
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure was blown forward by the explosion, and she instantly became more sober.
"What the hell is that?! Did that huge insect use the grenade or rocketuncher?" Tang Li Xueined while gnashing her pearl-white teeth.
Despite her chatter, Tang Li Xue''s feet did not stop sprinting forward.
But there was one more crucial problem that Tang Li Xue had realized just now...
Err... well... it seems that she got lost right now...
Tang Li Xue even felt that she was only running in circles all this time!
Little Loki seemed to be able to read Tang Li Xue''s mind, and it immediately tapped at Tang Li Xue''s head while protested to her: "MEOW~! Nyaow~!"
"Hey, hey, hey! It is not my fault, okay?! Who told these wasps to build such aplicated hive?! What''s more, all of these tunnels and roads are so alike that they are hard to tell apart!" Tang Li Xue disagreed and tried to defend herself.
When Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were quarreling with each other, the Sapphire Wasp Queen mercilesslyunched another attack toward them!
The Sapphire Wasp Queen shot its sharp stinger again, and it instantly split into many sharp stingers just like before.
[Hail of Shadow Stinger]!
However, the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s target was not Tang Li Xue or Little Loki this time but the ceiling above their head!
BBOOOOOMM~!!! BBOOOOOMM~!!! BBOOOOOMM~!!!
A lot of debris started to fall from above like rain.
Tang Li Xue started to run in a zigzag pattern to avoid the debris, but she still had to decrease her speed a lot because of that.
The expression of Little Loki and Tang Li Xue looked grim.
Both of them quickly realized the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s true objective by doing that.
Not only its action could slow them down or block their way to prevent them from leaving its hive, but by creating a hugemotion like this, it could quickly summon the rest of guarding Sapphire Armored Wasps.
Of course, Little Loki could also help Tang Li Xue by clearing the debris with its [Heaven''s Devour] but overlooking the Sapphire Wasp Queen like that was the same as courting death.
It was unbelievable that a mere insect could have such a smart brain, unlike a certain fox... Little Loki thought as it felt slightly impressed with the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s n.
Chapter 481: Turnaround!
Chapter 481: Turnaround!
Just like what Little Loki and Tang Li Xue had predicted, it did not take long for the crowd of Sapphire Armored Wasps to swarm toward their direction.
Tang Li Xue halted her step when she saw a swarm of Sapphire Armored Wasps flying toward them from the tunnel in front of them.
Tang Li Xue tried to run in the other direction, but the other tunnels were also flooded by the swarm of Sapphire Armored Wasps too.
There was really no other route to escape anymore...
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki werepletely surrounded by the swarm of Sapphire Armored Wasps from all directions!
d|
"Err... is this the real checkmate? Is there still something we can still do? What if we forcefully breakthrough..." Tang Li Xue whispered to Little Loki as she silently scanned the surrounding.
But her surrounding was densely packed with the swarm of Sapphire Armored Wasps. There was not even a space for her to crawl without bumping into any of them!
"Forget it... Oh, yes! Little Loki, how about using your teleportation ability to get out of here?" Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone as she suggested to Little Loki.
Little Loki rolled its ck eyes and immediately denied Tang Li Xue''s suggestion: "Nyaaa~!"
If its [Instant Teleportation] could teleport Tang Li Xue and itself out from here that easily, then Little Loki would have already done so long ago!
But its [Instant Teleportation] could only do short-distance teleportation, and it could not bring anyone or anything bigger than itself.
Well, unless it could swallow them first...
WWEEEEENGGGG~!!! BBBUUUUUUUZZZ~!!! BBBUUUUUUUZZZ~!!!
The Sapphire Wasp Queen was buzzing out loud as if to dere its victory.
BBBUUUUUUUZZZ~!!! BBBUUUUUUUZZZ~!!!
The armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps were also following their queen and buzzing loudly.
Tang Li Xue''s furry silver fox ears became droopy as she felt apprehensive.
"Err... Hi, everyone! Good morning, my friends! Uhh... We... We are just kidding, guys... Ahahaha, don''t be angry! I can give it back all of your honey and royal jelly, but can you just let us go from here?" Tang Li Xue said in the most gentle tone and even showed her brightest smile.
All of thosebined with her stunning beautiful face and mesmerizing topaz blue eyes, any male would surely be bewitched and fell so hard for her.
Unfortunately, there were no males here to appreciate it, only one ck kitten and a lot of insects...
The Sapphire Wasp Queen and its armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps did not seem impressed by Tang Li Xue''s words.
Instead, all of them pointed their sharp stinger toward Tang Li Xue!
If all of them shot their sharp stinger at once toward Tang Li Xue from all directions, even Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour] could not ovee it.
Since Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour] could only cover one direction.
Tang Li Xue quickly raised both of her hands to surrender in panic while shouting: "Hey, hey, take it easy, guys! All right, it does not work at all... This doesn''t look good for us, Little Loki... Do you have any good idea?"
Little Loki also shook its furry head in frustration.
If it was alone, Little Loki might be able to escape from here with its [Instant Teleportation]...
But if Little Loki entered alone before, then it certainly could not get the honey and royal jelly under the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s watchful eyes!
Anyway, it was already toote for them to regret or think about anything right now...
Because the Sapphire Wasp Queen and all of the Sapphire Armored Wasps already shot their sharp stinger toward Tang Li Xue and Little Loki in unison!
DADADADADADADADADADADA~!!!
The rapid sound of their sharp stingers being fired all at once was like the horrible sound of death!
Just when both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki werepletely at their wit''s end in this hopeless situation...
Something that no one expected had suddenly happened!
The deep blue mes burst out from Tang Li Xue''s body all of a sudden!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The deep blue me engulfed all of the sharp stingers that were flying toward Tang Li Xue and burned them all into nothingness!
The extremely high temperature deep blue mes were even burning the hive''s floor, the surrounding walls, and even the ceiling like a paper castle!
The entire dark tunnel waspletely lit up by the deep blue mes!
The floor under Tang Li Xue''s feet burned away in only a few seconds, and Tang Li Xue''s slender figure continuously fell down...
1st floor... 2nd floor... 3rd floor... 4th floor¡ and so on¡
All the way until she fell out of the Sapphire Armored Wasp''s hive!
"This is... We manage to get out of the hive?! Just like that?!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she dropped her jaw in surprise.
YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~!!!
A deafening Phoenix''s cry resounded as it flew out from Tang Li Xue''s Dantian!
"Phoenix of Pride? You damn bird, you finally wake up!" Tang Li Xue eximed with an extremely excited tone while a beautiful relieved smile bloomed on her stunning face.
The Phoenix of Pride rolled its eyes at Tang Li Xue in disdain...
If you were thinking that it happened to awake by chance at that right time, then you were wrong!
The Phoenix of Pride could sense that Tang Li Xue was in grave danger when it was in deep slumber previously.
So, it could only forcefully urge the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] to help it digest the source of Purple Ghost me quicker!
Of course, around 30% of the power from the source of Purple Ghost me was absorbed by the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] as a consequence.
But there was no other way since it could not let Tang Li Xue die just like that.
"What a good bird~! I thought you are only an arrogant,zy, greedy, and egoist bird without any good traits, who knows you are so dependable!" Tang Li Xue praised the Phoenix of Pride and gave it a thumbs up.
Little Loki pouted as it felt a bit salty and jealous.
But the Phoenix of Pride did not feel happy at all for Tang Li Xue''s praise, it even had the urge to dump Tang Li Xue and go back to sleep.
"Meeow~! Nyaw~!" Little Loki meowed as it pointed its furry paw downward.
Little Loki warned Tang Li Xue that they were still falling down like a heavy rock, and it would not take long for them to m into the ground.
"Oh, that is right... I almost forgot... Let''s go, damn bird!" Tang Li Xue uttered as she pped her forehead and called for the Phoenix of Pride.
YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~!!!
The Phoenix of Pride let out a deafening cry as it flew toward Tang Li Xue and entered Tang Li Xue''s Dantian again.
[Perfect Assimtion]!
The Phoenix of Pride assimted with Tang Li Xue, and Tang Li Xue''s slender figure was d in the deep blue me of Pride in that instant!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as the deep blue me of Pride gathered and merged in every cell of her body...
She could also sense that the power of the deep blue me of Pride had grown many times stronger than before!
It seems the Phoenix of Pride had progressed quite significantly after it digested the source of Purple Ghost me.
Even the [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline in Tang Li Xue''s body and veins was boiling hotter than ever.
Then Tang Li Xue used an ability that she had not used yet since she entered this Inheritance Ground Tablet.
[Phoenix Wings]!
A pair of deep blue Phoenix wings unfurled on Tang Li Xue''s back.
Tang Li Xue pped her deep blue Phoenix wings and her slender figure soaring into the sky.
There was the flying prohibition covering the entire Inheritance Ground Tablet before.
Well... without that flying restriction, all cultivators that entered this Inheritance Ground Tablet would already use their flying sword or flying treasure to travel around and take the inheritances.
Of course, the creatures like the white feathered giant owl, flower fairies, and Sapphire Armored Wasps were not affected by this flying restriction since they were native creatures of this ce.
But it seems this towering world tree area was an exception since Tang Li Xue could use her [Phoenix Wings] to fly here.
''Although the me of Pride bes a lot stronger than before, but it also consumes much more energy.'' Tang Li Xue thought carefully.
''It also bes many times harder to control than before. Sigh... It seems I need to work hard to practice againter.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in detail.
Just when Tang Li Xue thought deeply, the Sapphire Wasp Queen along with the armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps also flew out from their hive.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen actually led the armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps to chase after Tang Li Xue in rage!
"Tsk, they are really persistent! So annoying!" Tang Li Xueined as she clicked her tongue in vexation.
Tang Li Xue hastily pped the [Phoenix Wings] on her back to increase her flying speed!
But the Sapphire Wasp Queen and the armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps quickly formed an arrow formation and their flying speed skyrocketed by several times in an instant!
"What an annoying group of insects?! You are really starting to irritate me! Don''t think the current me is still the same as the previous me!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in anger.
Tang Li Xue started to put her palms together andpress her deep blue me of Pride into the space between her palms!
Chapter 482: (Spoiler Title at the Bottom of This Chapter)
Chapter 482: (Spoiler Title at the Bottom of This Chapter)
Tang Li Xue carefully controlled the deep blue me of Pride and focused it on one point.
Unfortunately, the result was not so good...
Tang Li Xue''s control over the deep blue me of Pride had slipped down so much after it got upgraded and became many times stronger than before.
"Oh, crap~! This is not looking good!" Tang Li Xue spoke in panic as she quickly threw the deep blue me ball onto the armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps that chasing behind her.
The armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps really did not expect that Tang Li Xue would suddenly turn around and throw something toward them, so before they had any time to react...
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The tremendous explosion was instantly triggered!
The terrifying destructive shockwave was rolling around violently.
Even the nearby gigantic branches of the towering world tree were shaking because of it.
Surprisingly, the power of this failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] was several times stronger than theplete [Spiral Sphere Bomb] that Tang Li Xue had used before.
Tang Li Xue did not expect her failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] to be so powerful, and her slender figure was thrown tens of meters away.
It took a while for her to p the [Phoenix Wings] on her back to stop spinning in mid-air and stabilized herself.
"Holysh*t! That was really dangerous! I thought I was already a goner just now!" Tang Li Xue cussed with a relieved tone.
Tang Li Xue''s graceful white dress became even more tattered than before, and her silky smooth silver hair had also be disheveled.
Tang Li Xue hastily checked Little Loki, who sat on her left shoulder before.
Thankfully, Little Loki did not fall down when Tang Li Xue was thrown away before. It was all right, only felt a little bit dizzy.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and took two [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from her space, then used them on herself and Little Loki.
"Nyaow~!" Little Loki wanted to refuse, but Tang Li Xue ignored its rejection and still stuck the [Talisman of Regeneration +3] onto its furry back, then put Little Loki back onto her left shoulder.
After that, Tang Li Xue carefully examined the situation of the Sapphire Wasp Queen and its subordinates.
Tang Li Xue was a bit disappointed when she saw the Sapphire Wasp Queen waspletely fine, except for a few scorched marks on its sapphire armor.
However, many Sapphire Armored Wasps were already turned into coal and fell from the sky like a meteor shower.
Tang Li Xue immediately became energetic again as she happilyughed at the miserable Sapphire Armored Wasps and said with a gleeful tone: "Humph~! Now you know the consequence of looking down on me!"
Tang Li Xue actually did not want to go this far at the beginning, because she was the one who wronged them first.
Well, I mean... killing people... err, I mean killing insects after robbing them and burning their home sounds pretty... inhumane.
But Tang Li Xue finally ran out of her patience when the Sapphire Wasp Queen still brought so many of its subordinates to hunt her down after she escaped from their hive as if she was a pushover.
''Anyway, I am not a human anymore! I am a fox now, so it only makes sense if I act like a fox too.'' Tang Li Xue silently thought to ease her guilt.
Despite their miserable situation, the Sapphire Wasp Queen could still easily maintain the order of its subordinates and made them regroup in neat formation.
All of that happened very quickly, it might be only a few seconds.
From this, it could easily be seen that the Sapphire Wasp Queen was a very capable leader.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen angrily red at Tang Li Xue with its huge insect eyes.
Tang Li Xue also red back at the Sapphire Wasp Queen while smiling smugly, filled with confidence, and waving her slender finger to provoke them toe toward her.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen was fuming with rage at Tang Li Xue''s provocation, and it swiftly flew toward Tang Li Xue along with the rest of its subordinates.
This time, they have learned their lesson and their formation was changed from one huge arrow into twelve smaller arrows.
Tang Li Xue turned around and pped the [Phoenix Wings] to fly farther away from the Sapphire Wasp Queen and its armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps.
All of them were flying higher and higher while encircling the towering world tree!
The surrounding air seems to get thinner and thinner. Even their vision started to get restricted by the white mist.
"Looks like it is impossible for me to use [Spiral Sphere Bomb] with my current lousy control over me of Pride... Then just use the normal [me Bomb]!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she quickly decided.
Deep blue mes gathered on the top of Tang Li Xue''s smooth snowy palm as she tried to condense the [me Bomb].
Tang Li Xue''s current [me Bomb] was only as big as a tennis ball, but she did not try to add anypression power.
However, Tang Li Xue could sense that her current [me Bomb] should be as powerful as the previous [Spiral Sphere Bomb] before the me of Pride absorbed the source of Purple Ghost me.
"Not bad at all~! Go! Destroy those annoying insects for me!" Tang Li Xue encouraged as she threw the [me Bomb] toward the Sapphire Wasp Queen and its subordinates.
But Sapphire Wasp Queen and its subordinates were already prepared right now.
When they saw Tang Li Xue throwing something toward them, they were already spread around quickly while preparing to shoot their sharp stinger.
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [me Bomb] failed to hit anything this time, so it fell onto the ground and exploded just like that.
Tang Li Xue needed to slow down her speed to throw her [me Bomb] before, so it gave the Sapphire Wasp Queen and the armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps a chance to catch up to her.
DADADADADADADADA~!!!
d|
The Sapphire Wasp Queen and the armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps shot their sharp stinger toward Tang Li Xue in unison when they managed to get close enough to her!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl white teeth in annoyance while condensing a cloak of deep blue me to protect herself from all their sharp stingers.
[Phoenix Cloak]!
Tang Li Xue''s deep-blue me of Pride wrapped her slim figure and burned all flying sharp stingers into nothingness!
Tang Li Xue waspletely unharmed by their flying sharp stingers'' attacks, but she also realized that she already consumed too much energy.
She might only be able to use the [Phoenix Cloak] two or three times and fly with [Phoenix Wings] for a few more minutes before she waspletely exhausted.
She also quickly concluded that [me Bomb] and [Spiral Sphere Bomb] were really not suitable for the aerial battle.
Why?
Because itcked speed so they could be avoided easily!
Tang Li Xue could hit them on the first time because the Sapphire Wasp Queen and the armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps did not expect her to have such a powerful technique.
''Damn it! [me Bomb] will not work anymore now?! So what should I do now?!'' Tang Li Xue thought as her expression turned even more gloomy, then she started to think of an effective n.
After all, Tang Li Xue still has a few other skills she has not used yet.
''How about [Fire Breath]? Meh... No, it will not work too. The attacking range is too short.'' Tang Li Xue immediately rejected it.
''[me Arrow] is pretty good, but it can only hit one target... There are more than ten thousand Sapphire Armored Wasps! Do you really expect me to shoot more than ten thousand [me Arrows] to kill all of them one by one? No, no, no... I would have already run out of energy before I could do it! Rejected!'' Tang Li Xue shook her head like a rattle drum.
When Tang Li Xue was in deep thinking mode, the Sapphire Wasp Queen and its subordinates started attacking Tang Li Xue again with their bullet-like sharp stinger!
DADADADADADADADADADA~!!!
But different from before, they did not shoot their sharp stingers in unison from all directions like before.
They took turns shooting their sharp stingers to slowly wear down Tang Li Xue instead!
Tang Li Xue had no choice other than to maintain her [Phoenix Cloak] to block their attack, but it also mean that she would be exhausted faster.
"Damn, these annoying insects! Do you really want to fight to the death against me?! Okay, if that is what you want! I will give it to you right away!" Tang Li Xue shouted at them in anger.
This time, Tang Li Xue hadpletely gone berserk.
Even the [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline in her body and veins seemed to sense Tang Li Xue''s rage and became searing hotter!
The deep blue me of Pride seems to be much docile and easier to control in that instant.
Tang Li Xue put her palms together andpressed her deep blue me of Pride into the space between her palms!
However, she did not n to make [me Bomb] nor [Spiral Sphere Bomb] this time...
She nned to condense [me Arrow] but also added the power ofpression and spin!
Thepressed deep blue mes started to distort, but Tang Li Xue did not make it into a ball form.
Instead, she made them into a spiral form with the power of rotation like a small cyclone!
She wanted to create apressed [Spiral me Arrow] that possessed extremely high speed and high explosive power!
Chapter 483: Stunned Silly!
Chapter 483: Stunned Silly!
Tang Li Xue put all of her concentration and focused carefully on controlling the deep blue me of Pride, so she did not have any free time to pay attention to her surrounding.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen noticed Tang Li Xue''s strange action and nned tounch a swift sneak attack toward Tang Li Xue with its [sh and sh] ability.
It wanted to assassinate Tang Li Xue from close range with its unparalleled sharp sickle arms!
But Little Loki already sensed it and jumped from Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder onto the top of her head while kept ring vigntly at the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
d|
The Sapphire Wasp Queen quickly halted its sneaky action when it saw Little Loki and immediately kept its distance from Tang Li Xue again.
It was not stupid enough to repeat what had happened in the spacious hall of its hive before.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen had no choice other than to continue its previous n to exhaust Tang Li Xue first.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen and the armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps kept continuously shooting their sharp stingers toward Tang Li Xue, but all of them were burned into nothingness by Tang Li Xue''s [Phoenix Cloak] before they could touch her.
It should be impossible for the normal Tang Li Xue to maintain [Phoenix Cloak] while focused on doing such aplicated task as condensing thepressed [Spiral me Arrow].
However, the [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline in her body seems to be identally awakened by thebination of Tang Li Xue''s rage and the Phoenix of Pride''s newly upgraded power!
''Come on! Compress more! Compact more! Spin faster! Add more power and heat!'' Tang Li Xue shouted in her mind.
At first, thepressed [Spiral me Arrow] was as big as a javelin, but it began to deform and shrink under Tang Li Xue''spression.
Then a bizarre thing that Tang Li Xue had not expected was happening...
The deep blue color of the me of Pride strangely changed color to light purple!
Because thepressed [Spiral me Arrow] was spinning too fast like apressed tiny cyclone, it began to bloat!
"Not good! Why the hell did it be like this?! Is it going to fail again? Why is the color turning purple too?" Tang Li Xue muttered with a tone full of frustration and bewilderment.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl white teeth as she felt extremely unwilling to give up since this might be her only chance to defeat the Sapphire Queen Wasp and its subordinates.
With her current remaining energy, it should be impossible for her to create the secondpressed [Spiral me Arrow].
In the end, she decided to not throw the deformed [Spiral me Arrow] away like the previous failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb].
Cold sweat wet Tang Li Xue''s back and forehead as she tried her best to control the distorted [Spiral me Arrow] and revert it back to the previous shape again.
Unfortunately, her effort was meaningless...
"Damn, this is not working at all! It is really going to explode at this rate!" Tang Li Xue''s sweet voice trembled as she felt the extreme heat radiating from the distorted [Spiral me Arrow].
If this deformed [Spiral me Arrow] exploded right now... forget about being injured or disfigured, even her jade-like white bare feet would evaporate without any trace!
But it was already toote for Tang Li Xue to throw away the deformed [Spiral me Arrow] right now!
Moreover, Little Loki did not realize Tang Li Xue''s dire crisis at all, since it was still busily on guard against the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s sneaky move.
If Little Loki was aware of the crises, then it might only need to use its [Heaven''s Devour] to swallow the deformed [Spiral me Arrow] to resolve it.
In that hopeless situation...
Just when the deformed [Spiral me Arrow] was on the verge of exploding...
Tang Li Xue suddenly got a sh of enlightenment...
Well, since she was already going to die anyway, why not add more mes, more heat, more spin, and morepression...
Who knows if she could drag those annoying insects along down with her into the underworld with this crazy move...
''Uwehehehehe... Even if I die, I don''t want to die alone! It is not my first experience to die anyway!'' Tang Li Xue thought to convince herself.
Tang Li Xuepletely released her control over the deformed [Spiral me Arrow] and madly added everything into it!
It was clearly an insane move.
Normally, it would certainly be exploded in an instant, just like throwing a grenade into the fire.
But on the contrary, the deformed [Spiral me Arrow] strangely became more stable instead in this way!
When Tang Li Xue was almostpletely running out of energy, the [Spiral me Arrow] finally stabilized and would not suddenly explode anymore!
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.
Then her pink lips twitched in dissatisfaction when she observed the [Spiral me Arrow] hovering on the top of her palm...
Err... Well, it could not be called [Spiral me Arrow] anymore since the form became a sphere like the usual [Spiral Sphere Bomb], except the color became dark purple now.
However, Tang Li Xue did not know that Little Loki watched the dark purple [Spiral Sphere Bomb] in horror from the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
Because Little Loki could sense a monstrous amount of destructive power from the dark purple [Spiral Sphere Bomb].
Suddenly, Tang Li Xue''s deep blue [Phoenix Cloak] and [Phoenix Wings] flickered like a dying candle.
"Damn it! I already run out of time!" Tang Li Xue muttered in panic.
Tang Li Xue''s own energy was actually exhausted long ago.
She currently only borrowed the energy from the Phoenix of Pride with [Perfect Assimtion] mode.
But the Phoenix of Pride was also almost running out of energy right now!
Tang Li Xue could only probablyst for a few more seconds at best.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as she looked at the dark purple [Spiral Sphere Bomb] and thought resolutely: ''I can only gamble with this thing. I am counting on you, brother! My fate is in your hand... err, no... in your power? Whatever... Just please, don''t disappoint me!''
Tang Li Xue slowed down her flying speed to let the Sapphire Wasp Queen along with its armies catch up to her from behind.
''Life or death is up to fate! It''s all or nothing! If I can hit them with this, then I win! If they could avoid it then... it will be really over!'' Tang Li Xue nervously thought again when she sensed the approaching Sapphire Wasp Queen and its armies.
When they almost caught up and prepared to besiege her, Tang Li Xue squinted her topaz blue eyes as she suddenly flipped on mid-air and stared face to face with the iing Sapphire Wasp Queen and its armies.
"Eat this, you bunch of bast*rds!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she raised the dark purple [Spiral Sphere Bomb] on the top of her palm.
Nheless, the Sapphire Wasp Queen and the armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps were already prepared, and they immediately spread out to avoid what Tang Li Xue wanted to throw toward them.
Tang Li Xue had no choice, so she decided to ignore the rest of the small fries and only focused on throwing the dark purple [Spiral Sphere Bomb] toward the Sapphire Wasp Queen!
But something unexpected happened again!
The dark purple [Spiral Sphere Bomb] actually did not fly from Tang Li Xue''s palm toward the Sapphire Wasp Queen but swelled and became bigger instead!
"What the hell is hap..." Before Tang Li Xue could finish her words...
The dark purple sphere suddenly shot out a huge pir of deep purple light!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
The huge pir of deep purple light was like a weapon of mass destruction, destroying everything in its path!
It did not only sweep the Sapphire Wasp Queen and its armies of Sapphire Armored Wasps but also several gigantic branches of the towering world tree and the jungle on the foot of the towering world tree.
After leaving an enormous deep crack in the towering world tree and the ground under its feet, the huge pir of deep purple light finally exhausted as it became smaller and smaller until itpletely vanished along with the dark purple sphere.
Tang Li Xue: "...."
Little Loki: "...."
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki dropped their jaw in shock and werepletely stunned silly.
After a few moments, Tang Li Xue muttered in shock: "Holy moly... This... Is this really the skill I used just now? Why is it simr to a certain ultimate move in dragon anime?"
Even Little Loki''s scald went numb when it watched the power of Tang Li Xue''s move just now.
"Oh well, let''s just call it, [Purple Destruction Wave]! Uwehehehe, now I have one more powerful..." Before Tang Li Xue could finish her words again... the deep blue [Phoenix Wings] behind her back suddenly disappeared, and her consciousness became blurry.
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure plunged down from the sky as she fell unconscious.
Even Phoenix of Pride could not help her anymore since it already fell back into a deep slumber again after its energy waspletely depleted by Tang Li Xue.
Luckily, there was still Little Loki, who still have some spare energy after it digested all the beast cores given by Tang Li Xue before.
Little Loki hastily activated its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] right before Tang Li Xue''s slim figure crashed onto the ground.
Then the unconscious Tang Li Xue halted in mid-air before she fell slowly onto the ground.
"Nyaw~!" Little Loki worriedly jumped toward Li Xue''s face and licked her cheek to try to wake her up.
Chapter 484: Leaving Inheritance Ground Tablet!
Chapter 484: Leaving Inheritance Ground Tablet!
Even though Little Loki failed to wake up Tang Li Xue, but at least, it was already made sure that Tang Li Xue was all right. She was only too exhausted and only need some time to rest.
After making sure the surrounding was safe for Tang Li Xue, Little Loki nced coldly toward the huge towering tree as if it sensed something.
Then its ck furry silhouette vanished as it used [Instant Teleportation] repeatedly to go toward somewhere near the huge towering tree.
¡..
¡
.
Somewhere near the towering world tree, something crawled out from the enormous deep crack at the towering world tree.
This was actually the Sapphire Wasp Queen!
The Sapphire Wasp Queen''s defense really deserved to be called the unbreakable.
Even under the direct devastating attack of Tang Li Xue''s [Purple Destruction Wave], it could not only survive but also still remain conscious.
Unfortunately, all Sapphire Armored Wasps were not as lucky and powerful as their queen, so all of them got wiped out by Tang Li Xue''s [Purple Destruction Wave].
Even though the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s current appearance looked pretty miserable, but it actually did not get hurt that badly.
Other than a few scratches and some scorching marks on its crystal-like armored body, the Sapphire Wasp Queen was pretty much quite healthy.
For the Sapphire Wasp Queen, its current situation might be no different than if a normal human identally bumped into something while walking and then fell onto the ground.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen was a False Spirit Beast after all.
Although its overall strength might be suppressed in this Inheritance Ground Tablet, but it still would not be that easy to kill it.
However, losing all of its subordinates was apletely different matter... It was extremely painful for the Sapphire Wasp Queen!
Those Sapphire Armored Wasps were not only its subordinates but also its children!
The cold light of anger and cruelty shed in the deep of Sapphire Wasp Queen''s huge bug eyes.
It swore in its heart to make those two little thieves pay with their lives, no matter what it takes!
Then a little ck silhouette suddenly appeared right in front of the Sapphire Wasp Queen!
Yes, this little ck silhouette was Little Loki who came over here after it sensed the aura from the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen was very startled. It reflexively wanted to retreat to keep its distance from Little Loki.
But its huge crystal-like body was tilted toward the right side and fell to the ground instead.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen stood up again and tried to fly up, but it fell to the ground again.
When the Sapphire Wasp Queen turned its head to check, only then it realized... Its pair of transparent wings were already broken by Tang Li Xue''s devastating attack before!
Little Loki red at the crippled Sapphire Wasp Queen and stretched its lips revealing its row sharp teeth.
It finally showed its signature frightening evil grin again.
The evil aura hidden in its tiny body was also slowly revealed, and its immeasurable evil aura waspletely released.
Even Little Loki''s disguise was also canceled, showing its pointed devil tail, a pair of tiny sheep horns, and a pair of bat-like demon wings.
The Sapphire Wasp Queen shuddered in fear and horror as it sensed Little Loki''s immeasurable evil aura.
It was as if the Sapphire Wasp Queen staring directly into the deepest abyss!
When it watched Little Loki open its tiny mouth, the Sapphire Wasp Queen started to regret it...
Why did it keep chasing after Tang Li Xue and Little Loki after they escaped from its nest before?
Why didn''t it just give up back then and let them go?
Unfortunately, it was already toote to regret it right now...
[Heaven''s Devour]!
As if a tiny ck hole opened inside Little Loki''s tiny mouth, the Sapphire Wasp Queen was sucked into its mouth without leaving anything behind!
Without mobility from its wings, the Sapphire Wasp Queen could not avoid or get away from Little Loki at all.
Even its unparalleled sharp sickle arms and unbreakable defense werepletely useless under Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour].
Once Tao Tie swallowed something, it was already over.
Scenario like staying alive in its stomach and then splitting the stomach from the inside to get out would never happen.
After gobbling the Sapphire Wasp Queen, Little Loki licked its lips with a satisfied expression.
Little Loki restrained its evil aura and turned on its disguise again.
Its demonic appearance turned back into a cute and innocent little kitten.
Little Loki took a deep look at the top of the towering world tree with its sharp but eerie ck eyes...
It could vaguely see several crystal fruits hanging on top of the towering world tree.
Little Loki greedily stared at the crystal fruits.
These crystal fruits should be many times more precious than the Sapphire Armored Wasps'' royal jelly!
But Little Loki hastily shook its furry head in disappointment.
Since those crystal fruits were many times more precious than the royal jelly, then it means their guardian should be also many times more powerful than the Sapphire Wasp Queen.
Although Little Loki was very greedy, and it really wanted to steal a few crystal fruits so badly to taste them, but it also very worried about Tang Li Xue''s safety.
Little Loki did not want to leave the defenseless Tang Li Xue away for too long.
Little Loki quickly ran back toward the unconscious Tang Li Xue.
After licking Tang Li Xue''s cheek a few more times, it snuggled back into Tang Li Xue''s warm tight embrace.
Little Loki yawned sleepily and fell asleep to digest the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s power it just devoured.
Of course, Little Loki''s sharp danger sense was still fully working.
If someone dared to jump close and threaten Tang Li Xue''s safety, Little Loki would not mind adding another few snacks after eating the main meal just now.
.....

When Tang Li Xue was still unconscious, her system gave a few sounds of warning.

-----------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue did not realize it since she was still sleeping deeply.
The time had passed, and the skies turned dark, but Tang Li Xue still did not wake up.
Then the sky brightened again under the sunlight... Tang Li Xue still asleepfortably.
Until the skies were covered with the dark cloud, and then the rainwater started to drop from the skies...
Drip... Drip... Drip... Drip... Drip... Drip...
Tang Li Xue''s thick eyshes began to flutter when several drops of rainwater hit her beautiful face, and she slowly opened her shiny topaz blue eyes.
d|
Tang Li Xue slowly got up while yawningzily, but her slender hands still hugged the sleeping Little Loki tightly like a little plush toy.
Tang Li Xue observed her surrounding and frowned a bit while muttering: "This is... err... where is this?"
She was actually in the middle of the unknown jungle right now.
She could not even see the towering world tree anymore.
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly realized and said: "Ahhh... I get it! My time in the Inheritance Ground Tablet should be already up! So, that is why I got kicked out and dumped here!"
Tang Li Xue cheerfully took a deep breath and said: "Sigh~! It is so good to be alive!"
She casually took out the white-colored [Wind Riding Bird] then feed it a few Spirit Dew Cucumbers before jumping onto the [Wind Riding Bird]''s back.
"Let''s go, buddy! We are going back home!" Tang Li Xue said as she patted [Wind Riding Bird]''s head.
The [Wind Riding Bird] swiftly pped its wings and soared into the sky.
Sitting rxedly on the [Wind Riding Bird]''s back, Tang Li Xue began to recount her harvest in the Inheritance Ground Tablet.
"Ah, this [Frost Swan Sword] is already broken... it is such a pity. I should be able to sell it for a hefty price in the auction house if it is still in good condition. But maybe I can find someone to fix itter... Well, forget it! Just keep it for now."
"There is also a ranked Heavenly Treasure, [Scepter of Disaster]! It is still in Little Loki''s hands. I will ask Little Loki to return it to meter. This thing is priceless, so I will never sell it! I will just use it by myself!"
"I also got many good martial art techniques such as: [Death Revtion Sutra], [Essence Devouring Technique], [Four Basic Immortal Sword Techniques], and [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual]. Well, most of them are useless to me since I mostly use my divine abilities and regalia, but I am still looking forward to learning [Essence Devouring Technique]."
"The most precious harvest should be the Royal Jelly and Honey from Sapphire Armored Wasps'' hive! Tsk, tsk, tsk... I wonder what kind of divine ability I would get by consuming them?! How many levels I could increaseter?! I really can''t wait for it!"
"No, no, no... the most precious should be still the [Soul ying Sword] and [Divine Soul Forge]! Unfortunately, I could not use the [Soul ying Sword] yet and I also could not learn [Divine Soul Forge] too, so they were useless for me currently."
Tang Li Xue muttered one by one while appraising their value in her mind.
"Oh, right! The quest from the system! It should be alreadypleted, right?! I wonder what I get as the reward forpleting it?!" Tang Li Xue shouted with an excited tone.
Chapter 485: Re-Encounter!
Tang Li Xue was dumbfounded when she opened her system interface and read a string of messages on there.
"Oh? So, I get [Substitute Doll] and [Silver Lottery Ticket]? Well, not bad at all~! Unfortunately, I did not have enough time to pack all of the honey in the hive before. If I did it, then the reward I get should be much more than these." Tang Li Xue shook her head in disappointment.
There were actually many pools filled with honey in the spacious hall of the hive, but Tang Li Xue only managed to take a few pools of honey before she got discovered by Sapphire Wasp Queen before.
"Woah, I can already breakthrough to Foundation Establishment Stage? Nice~! Before that, I mustprehend the of the [Four Mythical Beast Art] first? That is okay. Thankfully, I have enough Deity Coins now. I will breakthrough when I go back to my roomter." Tang Li Xue muttered while sighing in relief.
"By the way, what the hell is this system upgrade?!" Tang Li Xue eximed while frowning deeply.
Tang Li Xue tried to open her status window, but the system did not respond at all.
Then she tried to take out some items stored in the system storage but failed.
Tang Li Xue became nervous, but she quickly calmed down when she saw the time countdown.
[Estimatedpletion time: 29:47:11]
"So, the system will work again as usual after this time countdown is over, right? Hopefully so..." Tang Li Xue whispered with a worried tone.
After that, Tang Li Xue lost her good mood to appreciate all of her harvests.
She absentmindedly sat on the [Wind Riding Bird]''s back while impatiently waiting for the system upgrade toplete.
The rainwater was pouring down denser as the drizzling rain became heavy rain.
Tang Li Xue was also be drenched.
Only then she realized that she was still wearing tattered clothes because of the fierce battle from before.
Even her [Arcane Tunic] was ripped by Sapphire Wasp Queen''s sharp scythe arm attack before.
Luckily, the equipment from the system could automatically recover as long as the durability did not reach 0, so her [Arcane Tunic] would certainly recover and be as good as new after some time.
All of her wounds were also already long healed without any scars, thanks to her [High-Speed Regeneration].
But the problem was that she was almost half naked and showed off her snow-white smooth skin everywhere.
Tang Li Xue felt very embarrassed, so she quickly patted the [Wind Riding Bird]''s head to instruct it tond somewhere for a short while.
After the [Wind Riding Bird]nded in the middle of the jungle, Tang Li Xue jumped behind the thick bushes, then changed her tattered clothes into the spare clothes from her space pouch.
When Tang Li Xue hid behind the bushes to change her clothes, several ck-clothed men already flew toward where Tang Li Xuended just now.
"Hehehehe... Elder He, is this the ''person'' you saw a few moments ago?" One of the ck-clothed men said with a mocking tone while sneering and pointing his finger at the [Wind Riding Bird].
The white [Wind Riding Bird] red at the ck-clothed men vigntly, but it did not make any rash move since it could sense the powerful aura from these ck-clothed men.
"This...This is not my fault, okay?! It is so far away from us! I could only see a white speck before, so I thought someone was passing by here! ...And it is raining heavily right now too!" The other ck-clothed man replied to defend himself while shrugging his shoulder.
Fortunately, all [Wind Riding Birds] nurtured by Myriad Foxes Academy as the student''s travelingpanions have soft feathers, so Tang Li Xue did not need to put a saddle onto it.
If the [Wind Riding Bird] wore a saddle, those ck-clothed men would already guess that this [Wind Riding Bird] had an owner, and she should be nearby.
"All right... That''s enough, you guys! Let''s quickly go back! We have more important things to do! If those righteous sect disciples escape, we will definitely pay it with our livester!" The third ck-clothed man with a hoarse voice warned the others.
Several ck-clothed men ignored the white [Wind Riding Bird] and flew back toward where they came from previously.
Tang Li Xue already sensed them long ago with her [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability, and she quickly hid by using [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment].
Different from when she was in Inheritance Ground Tablet before, all of Tang Li Xue''s passive-type and active-type divine abilities have fully functioned now.
It was almost impossible to catch her off guard with her current set of skills and divine abilities, such as: [Extrasensory Perception], [Improved Concentration], [Razor-Sharp Mind], [urate Prediction], [Precise Calction], [Intense Focus], and so on.
Not only did Tang Li Xue eavesdrop on their conversation just now, she even secretly put [Mapping Sense]''s tracker onto them.
Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form], and her slender figure appeared again in front of the [Wind Riding Bird].
"Did you get startled? I am sorry, buddy~! I will not leave you alone again, okay?" Tang Li Xue coaxed the [Wind Riding Bird] while petting its head and feeding it with a Spirit Dew Cucumber.
''Those suspicious guys are certainly not good people... They also talked about righteous sect disciples?! Hmm... it sounds really fishy!" Tang Li Xue murmured with a tone filled with curiosity while thinking deeply.
After pondering it for a while, Tang Li Xue decided to check what those ck-clothed people were doing to satisfy her curiosity.
"Let''s go, buddy! Follow those people just now! But pay attention to the distance between us! Don''t let them know we are following them! Understand?" Tang Li Xue ordered as she jumped onto the [Wind Riding Bird]''s back again and patted its head.
"KEEAAAAK~! KEAAAK~!" The white [Wind Riding Bird] chirped and nodded its head before it pped its wings and soared into the sky.
After flying for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue saw that she was already close enough to those ck-clothed men from the [Mapping Sense]''s tracker she put on them, then Tang Li Xue ordered the white [Wind Riding Bird] tond.
Tang Li Xue put the white [Wind Riding Bird] and the sleeping Little Loki into her space pouch before she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] again.
Her slender figure turned invisible, and all of her traces, such as her body scent, aura, movement sound, etc werepletely covered.
Tang Li Xue carefully approached those ck-clothed men hiding ce.
The surrounding was still a dense jungle with many bushes and tall trees, but Tang Li Xue immediately found a hidden cave nearby.
Tang Li Xue suddenly had a bad premonition, but after considering it for a few moments, she still decided to enter the hidden cave.
''It should be okay, right? I have all my divine abilities right now, so it should be all right! I will only check what they are doing a little bit, then I will retreat quickly from hereter!'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
The hidden cave''s entrance waspletely dark, but it was not a problem for Tang Li Xue since she has Master-level [Night Vision].
There were many hidden traps installed at the entrance of the hidden cave, but Tang Li Xue in her [Ethereal Form] would not trigger any of them even if she stepped onto them.
After fifty meters or so, the cave started to brighten because there were many torches hanging on the right and left sides of the cave.
Tang Li Xue did not hastily step deeper into the cave since the [Mapping Sense]''s tracker she put on those ck-clothed people showed that she was already very close to their current position.
Tang Li Xue took a peek at what those ck-clothed people were currently doing and found that they were dragging some chained disheveled people into the prison.
Tang Li Xue felt those chained people''s tattered uniform clothes were quite familiar.
"Don''t tell me all of the prisoners are from the righteous sect?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in her mind.
Tang Li Xue braved herself to step closer and observed those prisoners from up close.
She was in an invisible and untraceable state anyway!
Then she really found a few familiar faces inside those prisons¡
Chief of Oracle Mountain Sect''s core disciples, Beiming Chu!
Chief of White Crane Sect''s core disciples, Snow Fairy, Meng Ying!
Chief of Immortal Sword Sect''s core disciples, Ye Zhen!
''Holysh*t! These ck-clothed people really dare to catch these big fishes from those righteous sects! Are they really not afraid of being hunted and ughtered by those righteous sectster?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in shock.
Then Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] suddenly sensed a very powerful aura entering this hidden cave and getting closer and closer to her current location!
Tang Li Xue guessed it should be the BIG BOSS of these ck-clothed people that wereing here!
Tang Li Xue was a little panicked, but her [Indomitable Will] quickly activated and calmed her down.
She hastily stepped toward one of the prisons.
With her [Ethereal Form], Tang Li Xue easily passed through the prison bars.
There were many prisoners bound with chains in this prison and Tang Li Xue hid among them.
Of course, she was still in the invisible and untrackable state with her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] turned on.
"How is it? How many people have we already caught?" The BIG BOSS asked the ck-clothed people.
When she took a peek at the BIG BOSS''s appearance, Tang Li Xue sucked a deep breath and hastily closed her mouth with her palm before she could scream in shock...
It was another familiar face!
The new sect leader of the Asura Demon Sect, one of the four evil sects!
Mo Chonglin!
Chapter 486: Tang Li Xue’s Decision!
For Tang Li Xue, Mo Chonglin might not be the strongest enemy she had ever faced, but he was surely the most dreadful one.
Why?
Because he has a very high IQ! He could easily predict what you will do next from your habit and mindset!
He has no bottom line and no weakness to exploit! Because he has no attachment to anything! Things such as honor, morals, ethics, rules, family, friends, underlings, and so on were all disposable for him!
He was also cold-blooded, extremely cruel, and decisive! Once he made his move, he would make sure to cut the grass and root cleanly in one swift move! (Well, Xiao Hei was an exception since he could only escape death back then because of Tang Li Xue''s cheating help.)
Everything was nothing more than a chess piece in his eyes, everything he had could be used as a sacrifice to reach his goal!
The type of person you absolutely did not want to mess with the most!
Once you offended him, you would surely be schemed and calcted to death by him!
Even Tang Li Xue was currently shivering in fright when she saw Mo Chonglin again.
After all, Mo Chonglin had already killed her twice before!
It was inevitable that the horrible experience with Mo Chonglin left some psychological shadows on Tang Li Xue.
Meeting Mo Chonglin here waspletely unexpected for Tang Li Xue, but there was one more thing that made Tang Li Xue horrified...
So young!
Yes, if the previous Mo Chonglin was a fat and bald middle-aged man, but the current Mo Chonglin was a handsome young man!
Of course, it was not because Mo Chonglin disguised himself, but because his cultivation was already breakthrough to Nascent Soul Stage, and he sessfully improved his lifespan by several times!
Honestly, Tang Li Xue herself would not recognize the current Mo Chonglin with his current appearance if not for her [All Knowing Eyes (Basic)] helped her just now.
[Mo Chonglin]
[Description: Your old mortal enemy! The new sect leader of the Asura Demon Sect, one of the four evil sects!]
[Cultivation Level: 1st Rank of Nascent Soul Stage]
[HP:???????/???????]
This was all of Mo Chonglin''s information that Tang Li Xue could see with her [All Knowing Eyes (Basic)].
As for the other ck-clothed men, the information wrote that they were the elders of the Asura Demon Sect, and all of their cultivation had reached Core Formation Stage.
When Mo Chonglin sensed that someone was peeking at him, he stared back toward the prison where Tang Li Xue currently hid.
Tang Li Xue quickly turned off her [All Knowing Eyes (Basic)] and closed her topaz blue eyes.
Thankfully, many other prisoners were also curiously staring at Mo Chonglin, so he did not feel too suspicious.
It was just that being stared at [All Knowing Eyes (Basic)] was somewhat special, like being stared at naked, so Mo Chonglin felt a bit disturbed just now.
Just when Mo Chonglin walked toward the prison where Tang Li Xue hid right now to check it, one of the ck-clothed men quickly approached him.
Mo Chonglin halted his step and asked the ck-clothed man: "How many people had we caught?"
"Report to Patriarch! We had caught a total of fourteen people right now. Should we wait a few more days to catch more people?" One of the ck-clothed men politely answered Mo Chonglin.
"No, we cannot wait any longer! Those big guys from righteous sects are not fools. They will certainly realize it soon, and they will definitely send more peopleter. Gather all of them, we will begin it now." Mo Chonglin casually ordered the ck-clothed men, then waited for them to do his order.
"Understood!" The ck-clothed men answered in unison.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw Mo Chonglin go further away from her prison.
''Gather all of them? Begin now? I thought he would use those core disciples to ckmail their sect forrge amounts of cultivation resources, but it seems I was wrong. What does he n to do with them?'' Tang Li Xue curiously thought, but somehow she already had a bad feeling about it.
Those ck-clothed men moved fast. They already started to open some prisons and dragged those chained disciples out.
Even the prison where Tang Li Xue hid was not spared, all of them were also dragged out by those ck-clothed men, but Tang Li Xue did not n to do anything rash yet, so she only silently watched them while kept hiding in the prison.
Those ck-clothed men gathered all of the caught disciples in the center of the cave.
Then those ck-clothed men made all of the chained disciples line up neatly in front of Mo Chonglin.
"Wh... What do you want to do?! You already take all of our spatial rings! What more do you want from us?" One of the chained disciples asked with a nervous tone.
"Bast*rd! Do you know who are we?! We are the righteous sect''s core disciples! Release us right now or our sect will never forgive you!" Another chained disciple angrily shouted.
The other chained disciples also shouted and cursed angrily.
They were the proud core disciples from righteous sects, so most people they met were usually ttering them.
Even the elders from their sects usually respected and spoiled them very much.
But Mo Chonglin and the ck-clothed menpletely ignored all of their screams and pleas.
"Do it now!" Mo Chonglin suddenly shouted.
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
The ck-clothed men struck the navel of those chained disciples until they flew back several meters while spurting a few mouthfuls of blood!
The ck-clothed men actually dared to crush the Dantian of all chained disciples and crippled their cultivation!
Tang Li Xue waspletely shocked by the sudden dramatic change.
After crippling all of those chained disciples'' cultivation, Mo Chonglin approached the chained disciple on the far right and ced his hand on the chained disciple''s forehead!
"AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH~!!!" The chained disciple screamed in pain and started to struggle, but it was only a futile resistance.
Not to mention that he already lost his cultivation, even if he still had his cultivation, he was still far from Mo Chonglin''s match.
After all, the cultivation level of these core disciples was only Acupuncture Opening Stage or Foundation Building Stage at most.
Meanwhile, Mo Chonglin''s cultivation had reached Nascent Soul Stage!
It was on the same level as their sect''s patriarch or ancestor!
After a few moments, that chained disciple stopped moving and breathed hisst.
Mo Chonglin''s cruelty once again opened Tang Li Xue''s eyes.
She also recognized what Mo Chonglin did to that chained disciple.
He was using [Soul Scour Technique] on him!
Tang Li Xue was terrified as she managed to guess Mo Chonglin''s objective this time.
He nned to use [Soul Scour Technique] to every one of those core disciples to peek at their memories!
After all, the most precious inheritance from Inheritance Ground Tablet was not only about treasures, pills, or herbs, but the inheritance of knowledge such as cultivation techniques, martial art skills, pill recipes, and so on.
Well... In short, Mo Chonglin never nned to let any of them go!
Because [Soul Scour Technique] would destroy its target soul.
Even if they were extremely lucky enough to survive, they would only be mindless idiots, like a piece of nk paper devoid of all memories and intelligence.
The other chained disciples shouted and screamed as one of them died just like that.
But the ck-clothed men made swift moves and broke their limbs, so they would not be able to struggle or try to run away anymore.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... Look at these female disciples from White Crane Sect, they are really tender and enticing. It is such a pity for them to die just like that. How about taking a few of them home as a ything?" One of the ck-clothed men asked with a yful tone while sneering lewdly.
"Stop making trouble! Do you want to get punished by our patriarchter? If you can stand it, then you can bring some of those dolls home." The other ck-clothed man replied with a mocking tone.
The first ck-clothed man shuddered in horror and quickly shook his head while saying: "Forget it!"
The other ck-clothed menughed at him.
Mo Chonglin did not care about them, and still busily used the [Soul Scour Technique] to the second chained disciple.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue started to panic...
Because if she did not act soon, all of those disciples would certainly die!
''Damn it! Where are the guardian elder of those core disciples?! Why don''t they help their own disciples now? Didn''t every righteous sect will assign some Core Formation Stage''s elders to escort their core disciples here?!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in annoyance.
However, it was not that those Core Formation Stage''s elders did not care or did not want toe to help them, but it was because they were already dead!
Why did you think Mo Chonglin came into the cavete?
It was because he cleaned those Core Formation Stage''s elders first!
While he assigned the Core Formation Stage elders from the Asura Demon sect to catch those core disciples!
''What to do? Should I just ignore them and retreat from here alone?'' Tang Li Xue thought in hesitation.
''No way! I owe some debt of gratitude to that Ye Zhen... He helped me a lot in Quanhai City before. Well, he is also one of my human friends, so I definitely could not just ignore him to die here.''
''I had also fought side by side with that Beiming Chu in the creepy herb garden before... All right, it might be impossible for me to help them all, but taking these two to escape with meter should not be a problem, right?'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
''But before that...'' Tang Li Xue used [Energy Maniption] to condense a fox mask to cover her stunning face and a hooded white coat to cover her silver fox tail and fluffy fox ears.
"Ah, I also need a dependable helper... Go out now, [Twin Moon]!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she summoned out her perfect copy.
Another slender figure very identical to Tang Li Xue instantly appeared by her side.
The perfect copy stared at Tang Li Xue with cold and indifferent eyes, then said: "You always only called me when you face some difficulty. I want to abstain this time! I want to go on strike!"
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "All right, stop sulking! I already know what you want! Don''t worry, you will also have your own fair share of royal jelly and honeyter!"
A beautiful smile instantly bloomed on the perfect copy''s mesmerizing face as she spoke: "Do you think I am a person like that?! Helping people is my hobby, okay?! Let''s go now before that old man killed all of them!"
The perfect copy activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], then her figure also turned invisible.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and quickly followed her perfect copy from behind.
Chapter 487: Epic Rescue!
Actually, Tang Li Xue did not have enough courage to act recklessly like this in front of Mo Chonglin for now.
But there was one reason that gave Tang Li Xue enough confidence to rescue people...
It was because of the heavy rain outside that gave her some ideas!
"Come! My beloved martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent]!" Tang Li Xue muttered softly.
When the [Golden Winged Serpent] appeared, it usually soared into the sky and roared happily, but this time Tang Li Xue instantly changed it into a pair of golden gauntlets, so it would not make any noise to warn the enemies.
Tang Li Xue walked out of the prison. She easily passed through the prison bars with her [Ethereal Form].
She quickly headed toward the center of the cave and approached the chained Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu from behind.
No ck-clothed men noticed that she was currently standing so close to them because she was still in the invisible and untraceable state with both her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] turned on.
But normally, Mo Chonglin could still notice her because the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator could already sense the presence of souls from all nearby creatures through their Nascent Soul level''s divine sense.
Fortunately, Mo Chonglin was still too busy tinkering with the other chained core disciples, so he failed to notice Tang Li Xue''s presence there.
Don''t look at the [Soul Scour Technique] seems to be so convenient to use, but this technique was actually very taxing and risky!
Imagine absorbing a person''s lifetime memories and knowledge from baby until adult in only a few breaths... It will certainly put a huge burden on Mo Chonglin''s brain and soul!
If he was not powerful enough to bear that burden, Mo Chonglin himself could lose his own sense of identity and think of himself as the person he soul-scoured before, or the worst effect was that his soul would break and scatter, then he would suddenly die.
Of course, Mo Chonglin was the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, so he was more than strong enough, but he still need to put all of his attention and focus to digest and organize the knowledge and memories he extracted from these disciples.
That was the reason why Mo Chonglin failed to notice Tang Li Xue''s presence until now even though she was standing so close there.
''It is almost their turn... Let''s begin now or it would be toote to save them and we can only collect their corpses! I am counting on you! Go, [Golden Winged Serpent]!'' Tang Li Xue instructed as she raised the golden gauntlet.
Blub¡ Blub¡ Blub¡ Blub¡ Blub¡ SHUAAA~ SHUAAA~ SHUAAA~
The sounds of water gathering and bing a big wave were mixed with the sound of heavy rain.
"Err¡ Did you all hear something?" One of the ck-clothed men asked as he seemed to hear the sound of water.
"Hear what?" The other ck-clothed man asked back.
"A sound like... water moving?" The first ck-clothed man replied with an uncertain tone.
"Are you sick? There is heavy rain outside! Of course, there will be the sound of water!" The other ck-clothed man spoke with a mocking tone while sneering at hisrade''s stupidity.
"No, no, no... The sound is not like rain at all. It was more like the sound of waves on the ocean. I think we should..." The first ck-clothed man replied and frowned deeply.
Before he could finish his words...
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The cave where they hid was suddenly assaulted by the huge tide!
But it was actually one of the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s unique skills, [Tidal Wave]!
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to use [Perfect Assimtion] with the Phoenix of Pride, but she quickly remembered that Mo Chonglin probably already noticed her deep blue colored me of Pride back then, so she decided to use her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent] this time!
Even though the entire cave was already filled with water, but Tang Li Xue''s movement was unhindered at all.
On the contrary, she was like a fish in the water thanks to the power of three [Golden Winged Serpent]''s abilities!
[Water Control]: The power to control water like your own limbs.
[Greater Water Sense]: Granted underwater breathing ability and the power to sense the vibrations in water, making you capable to detect everything inside the water.
[High Water Affinity]: Increased movement speed by 5 times, all stats by 3 times, and all of the water/ice elemental attacks by 200%, while decreasing all of the water/ice elemental damage received by 80% (Activated only in the ce with a lot of water).
When everyone was caught in surprise by the sudden [Tidal Wave], Tang Li Xue swiftly made her move!
She struck the nape of Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu from behind until they fell unconscious, so they would not struggle or shout, then threw them into his mid-rank space pouch.
She did it all in less than one breath.
With this, Tang Li Xue''s job was already half-done.
She only needs to get out of here right now!
Of course, those ck-clothed men would not let it happen that easily, but they were not the ones who act the fastest here!
BBBWWOOOOOOOOOOSSHHH~!!!
With one sh of his martial soul, [Purple Thunder Crescent de], the water that flooded the entire cave was split in two by Mo Chonglin!
Moreover, his purple thunder sh was still heading toward Tang Li Xue!
The purple thunder sh was too fast for Tang Li Xue to dodge, so she could only raise her hands and used the golden gauntlets to defend herself while also activating her defense-type divine ability, [Golden Body]!
Her entire body seemed to be covered by golden light in that instant!
BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Despite all of the crazy buffs she received from her [Golden Winged Serpent] in golden gauntlet form and [Golden Body], Tang Li Xue''s slender body still flew backward and crashed hard onto the cave wall under Mo Chonglin''s attack.
''Damn it! He is too strong! Tsk~! So, I still cannot be his opponent yet even for now! But it is still my win this time~!'' Tang Li Xue thought while smiling happily.
Mo Chonglin red coldly at Tang Li Xue. His eyes were filled with killing intent.
Then he ordered his subordinates: "Activate the Confinement Formation now! Don''t let anyone get away!"
One of the ck-clothed men took out a metal te and injected his Qi into it.
The entire cave was quickly covered by manyplicated rune patterns in that instant!
Mo Chonglin mercilesslyunched another attack toward Tang Li Xue with his [Purple Thunder Crescent de]...
Anyway... Did any of you ever ask where Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy went now? Why had she not helped Tang Li Xue until now?
Well, the answer was because her perfect copy was already run away as far as she could from this cave, even before Tang Li Xue even made her first move!
While Mo Chonglin ordered his subordinate to lock the entire cave with Confinement Formation, Tang Li Xue had already activated the [Swap] skill from [Twin Moon] divine ability to exchange position with her perfect copy!
After that, she quickly unsummoned her perfect copy as fast as she could before Mo Chonglin could kill her perfect copy with his [Purple Thunder Crescent de].
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy vanished just right before Mo Chonglin''s [Purple Thunder Crescent de] could touch her perfect copy.
"So~ Easy peasy lemon squeezy~! I am not even breaking a sweat here~!" Tang Li Xue said as she happily celebrated her victory.
Even so, Tang Li Xue would never look down on Mo Chonglin''s cleverness because of her small victory.
She quickly summoned out her perfect copy again.
In that instant, the perfect copy appeared again right in front of the real Tang Li Xue.
"Holysh*t! That was a close one! Do you know that I almost died just now?! His Crescent de was right in front of my face!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediatelyined non-stop.
"All right, okay, I get it! We don''t have much time to waste here! They will certainly chase after us soon! So, we will go on separate ways now. You go west and I will go east!" Tang Li Xue hastily replied.
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy activated [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] once again to turn invisible and untraceable, then sprinted in two different directions to confuse the enemies.
Well... Actually, only Mo Chonglin could probably detect them with his Nascent Soul Stage Cultivation, but there was nothing wrong to be more careful against someone so cunning.
In this way, even if Mo Chonglin managed to catch up with Tang Li Xue, she could still easily escape by repeating the previous trick!
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to sprint with her fastest skill to get away as far as she could from here!
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
Comparing the speed of [Snow Dance Step] with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], was the same asparing a bicycle with a racing car.
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step]''s speed was so fast that Tang Li Xue seemed to do close-range teleportation, and she would only leave several afterimages every time she moves.
But right now, Tang Li Xue was still in [Ethereal Form], so she would not leave any trace at all such as afterimages or footprints.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue would receive the [High Water Affinity] passive buff under heavy rain, so she was running five times faster than usual!
If anyone forgot about [Golden Body]''s buff power:
* Increased physical defense and elemental resistance by 50%.
* Reduced any damage received by 30%.
* Reflected back any iing physical attack by 25% (calcted before any defense or damage reduction)
* Increased health regeneration by 100%.
* Any damage you received below 100 points would be nullified.
Chapter 488: Sorrow And Grief!
Tang Li Xue kept running non-stop until she went out of the vast jungle and passed several small viges.
When Tang Li Xue turned her head, she could see the tall Cang Yuan Mountain from afar.
From this distance, Tang Li Xue concluded that she should be already a few hundred miles away from Cang Yuan Mountain.
Even her perfect copy already went out of range from her [Twin Moon]''s radius and automatically unsummoned.
But Tang Li Xue still did not n to let her guard down!
Because on her way, Tang Li Xue saw many other cultivators flying in the skies as if they were looking for something, and it made her very nervous.
Tang Li Xue quickly summoned out her perfect copy again.
Just like before, they were heading in two different directions again.
Until the sun went down and the skies turned dark, Tang Li Xue pped her forehead as she realized something important.
"I am really an idiot. Why do I need to be so cautious here?! It should be them that need to be cautious!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she halted her step and smiled in relief.
If Tang Li Xue was facing a brainless dead viin like in her previous life''s novels, then those viins would certainly chase after her to the end of the world out of anger.
But Mo Chonglin was clearly an extremely cunning bast*rd, so he would not chase after her, but he would bring his people to retreat and hide themselves as soon as possible!
Why?
Because Mo Chonglin and the elders of the Asura Demon Sect just killed the elders and core disciples from four righteous sects!
It was alreadymon sense that every important member of any big sect would leave their life trace in some kind of treasure or device such as a lifemp, a vitality jade te, and so on.
So, if any important member of the big sect died, their respective sect would immediately know!
Another example of this treasure was the gigantic ck stone monument from Myriad Foxes Academy.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and the other foxes had already written their names on this gigantic ck stone monument the moment when they got epted into the Myriad Foxes Academy before.
Just like what had been exined by the beautiful blonde fox before...
The golden name on the ck stone monument means alive and healthy. If it turned into red light, it means they were critically injured and needed immediate help. The dim blue light names mean they already died.
So, if someday Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and the other foxes lost their life outside, everyone in Myriad Foxes Academy would know that they had already died.
If Mo Chonglin and the elders of the Asura Demon Sect were still stupidly chasing after Tang Li Xue right now, then they would surely get encircled and caught by the four righteous sects soon!
"That cunning baldy... well, he is not bald anymore... whatever, I will still call him baldy uncle! That baldy uncle and his people surely already ran away and hid like a turtle by now!" Tang Li Xue said with a certain tone as she stopped running crazily like before.
Since it was already midnight, and it was still drizzling right now, Tang Li Xue decided to take shelter in the nearby abandoned temple.
Tang Li Xue made a bonfire inside the abandoned temple, then took out the unconscious Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu from her mid-rank space pouch.
Tang Li Xue might not be afraid of cold, and she could also instantly dry her wet clothes by emitting a bit of heat from her deep blue me of Pride, but these unconscious two were different.
Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu were only ordinary mortals now, since their Dantian were already crippled by Mo Chonglin''s people, and their cultivation was already lost.
Tang Li Xue held their shoulder and channeled a bit of her Qi into their body to wake them up.
It did not take long for Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu to wake up after that, but both of them still felt dizzy and very ufortable right now.
Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu shook their head, and it took a while for them to clear their mind.
Ye Zhen''s eyes brightened when he saw Tang Li Xue, and he immediately recognized her since Tang Li Xue also wore a fox mask when they first met in Quanhai City before.
"Miss Xiao Xue! So, it is you who helped us out!" Ye Zhen uttered with a tone filled with excitement.
"Thank you very much, Miss Xiao Xue. Without your rescue, we would be already died by now." Ye Zhen uttered with a grateful tone as he bowed to thank Tang Li Xue.
"But our cultivation is already..." Beiming Chu muttered with an empty look.
Tang Li Xue''s expression also became gloomy and replied with a depressed tone: "I am sorry... If only I can save you two faster, then maybe you two would not..."
Ye Zhen quickly intercepted Tang Li Xue''s words by saying: "Miss Xiao Xue, please don''t apologize to us. This is not your fault at all. It is those viins from the demon sect that are guilty!"
"Miss... Xiao Xue, right? I am sorry Miss Xiao Xue, but can you please leave us alone for a few minutes?" Beiming Chu asked Tang Li Xue politely with a sad expression.
"Why? Err... This... all right..." Tang Li Xue was stunned and hesitantly replied.
Tang Li Xue stood up and slowly walked out of the abandoned temple while feeling puzzled.
Although, it seems impolite to tell a girl to wait outside when the weather was cold and rainy like this, but Tang Li Xue did not feel offended or annoyed.
Because Tang Li Xue immediately realized the reason for their absurd request when she heard sobbing and crying sounds from the abandoned temple with her sharp sense of hearing.
It might take decades of persistence and hard work to reach their previous level of cultivation, but it was allpletely wasted now.
Even if they could somehow restore their Dantian, they must start their cultivation from the very beginning.
Moreover, they need a high-grade precious healing pill or rebirth herb in order to restore their Dantian.
But ording to the current situation, their sect might have it, but their sect would probably not give it to Beiming Chu and Ye Zhen.
Because it was simply not worth it to give such precious things to people that had already lost their worth. Unless Beiming Chu and Ye Zhen have some important connection such as the son of the patriarch or supreme elder.
Tang Li Xue sighed in pity and sorrow.
Unfortunately, even Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Regeneration +3] could not restore their Dantian. Only the [Recovery Pill] that Tang Li Xue obtained from the system before could do it.
But Tang Li Xue already consumed all of her [Recovery Pills] long ago...
Then suddenly, a sh of inspiration came into Tang Li Xue''s mind.
"Wait a minute... I still have [Death Revtion Sutra]!" Tang Li Xue uttered with an excited tone as her topaz blue eyes were shining.
ording to the inheritance of the Evil Ghost Emperor that Tang Li Xue had received before, the cultivator must cripple their Dantian first and restart their cultivation from the beginning if they want to cultivate [Death Revtion Sutra].
Wasn''t this harsh requirement fit with Beiming Chu and Ye Zhen''s current situation?
Then Tang Li Xue fell into a dilemma once again...
This [Death Revtion Sutra] was surely very powerful, but it also seems very evil.
Well, you could easily see it from the name of Evil Ghost Emperor.
The cultivator of this [Death Revtion Sutra] would take the Necromancer route, and it could control many ghosts and corpses.
If Tang Li Xue gave it to them just like that, then they used it to do evil deeds like ughtering countless innocent people to extract their souls to make ghost ves... then the consequences would be extremely bad!
Even Tang Li Xue did not dare to imagine it.
''Sigh... So, should I give it to them? Or... maybe just forget it?'' Tang Li Xue thought in hesitation.
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to give [Death Revtion Sutra] only to Ye Zhen.
Because she only met Beiming Chu once, and she still did not know his true character.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue already knew that Ye Zhen was a person with strong righteousness. He was also upright and polite.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue still felt indebted to Ye Zhen, so she decided to give this [Death Revtion Sutra] to pay it off.
From now on, she and Ye Zhen would not owe anything to each other.
Tang Li Xue activated [Twin Moon] divine ability once again to summon out her perfect copy.
Before her perfect copy could say anything, Tang Li Xue immediately said: "Help me write all of the content of [Death Revtion Sutra] in this white fabric!"
"What?! You called me out just to do something like that?! Why don''t you do it by yourself?! I refuse to do it! This is clone abuse! I will sue you!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy started to bber angrily.
Tang Li Xue red at her and said: "Do you still want your share of royal jelly and honey?"
"All right, where is the pen and ink?!" The perfect copy quickly replied.
Tang Li Xue gave the pen and beast blood ink to her perfect copy, then threw her perfect copy into her mid-rank space pouch so she could write quietly in there.
Chapter 489: Ye Zhens New Life!
After one hour or so, Tang Li Xue entered the abandoned temple again.
Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu already calmed down a lot, but both of them looked more haggard, and their eyes were red.
Tang Li Xue also realized that their eyes were filled with misery and despair.
It waspletely reasonable because most cultivators considered their cultivation to be more important than their lives.
The purpose of almost all cultivators in their life was to breakthrough to the higher realm, obtain immortality, reach the Dao, and became a fairy or god.
Of course, there were also other reasons such as revenge, family happiness, wealth, and so on, but it was only the minority.
Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu were the cultivation genius... before. They proudly stood above their genius peers and even became the chief of core disciples from their respective righteous sects.
That was the reason why losing their cultivation was the same as losing their only purpose in life for both Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu.
Tang Li Xue could not find any right words to cheer them up, so she could take out some meats and prepare the barbeque for them.
After eating until they were full, Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu quickly fell asleep in exhaustion.
It was truly a rough day for them, let alone that they were only ordinary mortals right now, and they were still internally injured.
But Tang Li Xue could not apany them for too long since she was almost running out of time.
Foxes Hunting Festival was about to begin, so she must rush back to Myriad Foxes Academy as soon as possible.
Tang Li Xue waited for two hours or so before her perfect copy jumped out from the mid-rank space pouch after finishing her work.
The mid-rank space pouch could only be used for storing, not imprisoning, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could easily retreat out from it.
The perfect copy gave the fabric written with [Death Revtion Sutra] to Tang Li Xue, then Tang Li Xue packed it with some rations and money.
Tang Li Xue slipped the bundle into Ye Zhen''s clothes.
Tang Li Xue did not use any spatial ring to store them because all spatial rings could only be opened with spiritual Qi.
After doing that, Tang Li Xue stared at Ye Zhen for a while and muttered: "I wish you good luck, my human friend..."
Then Tang Li Xue walked out from the abandoned temple and jumped onto [Wind Riding Bird]''s back.
The perfect copy also quickly followed and sat behind Tang Li Xue while asking: "Why don''t you escort them back directly to their sect? Are you not worried about their safety?"
"I am not their nanny..." Tang Li Xuezily answered.
"What if they died on the way before could reach their sect? It would be such a pity after we spent a lot of time and effort to save them before, right?" The perfect copy asked again with a curious tone.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and did not bother to answer her perfect copy''s question again.
The white [Wind Riding Bird] already started pping its wings and soaring into the skies.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had said, she was not their nanny, parents, rtives, or lover.
Why the hell did she have to escort those two men straight to their sect?!
Moreover, the risk of doing that was too high!
What if their sect suddenly found out that she was not human and then arrested her?
That was the reason why giving them some provisions, along with some silver coins and gold coins was the best she could do for them.
.....
...
.
After a few hours, Ye Zhen slowly woke up from his sleep while muttering: "Good morning, Miss Xiao Xue..."
Beiming Chu was still sleeping, so Ye Zhen decided to look around the abandoned temple but still failed to find Tang Li Xue.
Ye Zhen was very disappointed when he realized that Tang Li Xue was already left.
But he quickly shook his head in irony while whispering: "Like a toad wishing to eat swan meat... No, I could not even be considered a toad right now. I am just a weak ant. While Miss Xiao Xue is like a phoenix flying in the nine heavens... Sigh..."
After drowning in his sorrow for a while, Ye Zhen sensed something inside his clothes.
Ye Zhen took the bundle given by Tang Li Xue out and hastily checked the content.
A gentle smile emerged from Ye Zhen''s gloomy face as he said: "As expected... Miss Xiao Xue is so gentle, kind, and considerate. She still thinks of us before she leaves."
Ye Zhen checked the item given by Tang Li Xue one by one.
Dried jerky, dried fruits, ration bread, a normal pouch filled with silver coins and gold coins, and... a white cloth?!
Ye Zhen found that there was something written on the white cloth.
At first, he thought it was only a farewell letter from Tang Li Xue, but his expression gradually turned serious after he had carefully read the content.
"This is... [Death Revtion Sutra]? And the way to cultivate it is to cripple your Dantian and rebuild your foundation?!" Ye Zhen uttered in disbelief.
This [Death Revtion Sutra] was the cultivation technique that was extremely suitable for their current situation!
But then Ye Zhen fell into a panic because this [Death Revtion Sutra] was certainly not a cultivation technique from a righteous path!
Ye Zhen did not know that Tang Li Xue got this [Death Revtion Sutra] from the Inheritance Ground Tablet.
He thought Tang Li Xue took out this [Death Revtion Sutra] from her elder, her master, or even her sect.
No matter who she got it from, it also meant that Tang Li Xue''s background was not from the righteous path too!
She might be even a cultivator from one of the Four Evil Sects!
Ye Zhen thought that it might also be the reason why she would always wear a fox mask and hooded cloak to cover herself.
Well, Ye Zhen''s guess was actually half right.
Tan Li Xue was not the cultivator of the righteous path, but she was also not from any Four Evil Sects.
Err... She was not even a human in the first ce...
Ye Zhen did not hate or resent Tang Li Xue at all because of it.
On the contrary, Ye Zhen thought Tang Li Xue might know that he and the other disciples were about to be killed because Tang Li Xue was a member of one of the Four Evil Sects.
Ye Zhen made up the drama in his mind and deepened his misunderstanding of Tang Li Xue...
He started to think Tang Li Xue might didn''t really want to join the evil sect, but she did not have any other choice.
Ye Zhen was afraid that what Tang Li Xue had done to help them would be detrimental to Tang Li Xue herself and bring her some hidden dangerter on instead, so he started to think deeply...
No one should know about Tang Li Xue being involved in this incident since Tang Li Xue covered herself with a fox mask and hooded clothes.
Ye Zhen sighed in relief... But he quickly became tense again...
NO!
Ye Zhen remembered that there was one more person who knew Miss Xiao Xue''s name...
Ye Zhen nced at the sleeping Beiming Chu.
Ye Zhen hit his own head as he remembered that he mentioned Xiao Xue''s name in front of Beiming Chu yesterday!
"I am really so stupid!" Ye Zhen uttered with a frustrated tone.
"NO! It is not toote yet! I can still fix this error!" Ye Zhen spoke with a freezing cold tone.
Ye Zhen hastily ran out from the abandoned temple and found a sharp branch nearby, then he quickly went back to the abandoned temple.
Ye Zhen carefully approached Beiming Chu, and then...
PUUUUUUFFFFF~!!!
The sharp branch in Ye Zhen''s hand stabbed deeply into Beiming Chu''s throat!
Beiming Chu opened his eyes wide and stared at Ye Zhen in disbelief...
In thest moment of his life, Beiming Chu did not even know why Ye Zhen killed him.
After Beiming Chu breathed hisst, Ye Zhen released the sharp branch and sat on the floor in disbelief.
Then he stared at his bloodstained hands in doubt.
"what have I done?! Why am I doing this?! How could I kill Brother Beiming with my own hands?!" Ye Zhen shouted in guilt.
It took a while for Ye Zhen to gradually calmed down and said: "No, I must do this! For Miss Xiao Xue''s safety... even killing hundreds, thousands, or millions of Brother Beiming, I am willing to do it!"
At first, he still felt afraid, hesitant, and guilty...
Then Ye Zhen closed his eyes and took out Tang Li Xue''s white cloth with his bloodstained hands and held it close to him.
When the sweet floral scent from the white cloth entered his nostril, every fear, hesitation, guilt, despair, and misery seemed to fade away.
It was as if he gained a new life...
"Yes, I have already gained a new life... A new life given by Xiao Xue..." Ye Zhen muttered in intoxication.
The moment Ye Zhen opened his eyes again, his gaze waspletely changed.
It became much more cold and determined.
When he lost his cultivation before, most parts of his heart died along with it.
But right now, there was new life meaning, new ambition, and... new obsession born in the deepest part of his heart.
He wanted to be a dragon!
He did not care if it would be an evil dragon, a ck dragon, or a demon dragon, but at least, it should be good enough to be matched with the phoenix flying in the nine heavens!
"From now on, Beiming Chu and Ye Zhen are already dead. Henceforth, my name is... Death Lord!" Ye Zhen said to himself.
There was no merit even if he went back to the sect.
On the contrary, the sect might interrogate or even read his mind using some treasure and then kick him out of the sect since he was nothing more than a crippled person now.
Bing a loose cultivator was the only choice for him.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue did not know what had happened in the abandoned temple after she left there.
When Tang Li Xue departed from the abandoned temple, the skies were still dark.
The weather was still cloudy and drizzling, so no stars could be seen.
But after flying for a few hours, the ck cloud finally dispersed, and the morning sun was blooming.
Tang Li Xue yawned as she enjoyed the scenery of the beautiful morning sunrise.
Chapter 490: Little Girl!
Tang Li Xue checked Little Loki''s condition, but it was not awake yet and was still fast asleep in her mid-rank space pouch.
It seems Little Loki needs some time to digest Sapphire Wasp Queen''s power and many ancient swords it had devoured before.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not know that Little Loki had devoured all of those, so she started to worry about Little Loki''s condition.
But there was nothing Tang Li Xue could do for Little Loki, so she could only let Little Loki sleep peacefully for now.
Then Tang Li Xue checked how long for her system toplete the upgrade.
[Estimatedpletion time: 07:32:45]
Well, only seven and a half more hours for the upgrade toplete... It was not that long anymore.
Tang Li Xue felt a bit hungry right now, but she already gave the rest of her ration to Ye Zhen before.
She decided to visit the nearby town and eat some delicious meals in the most luxurious restaurant there.
When Tang Li Xue imagined the delicious Braised Pork Belly, Kung Pao Chicken, and so on, she started to gulp her saliva.
She missed the delicious delicacies from the luxurious restaurant at Myriad Foxes Academy.
Tang Li Xue brought many delicious foods from that luxurious restaurant before she went to Inheritance Ground Tablet, but she had already eaten all of them long ago.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to see a small town, and she urged the white [Wind Riding Bird] tond near that small town.
However, Tang Li Xue saw the scene she hated the most in front of the small town''s entrance before she could enter the small town.
A few thugs tried to coerce an underage little girl to follow them somewhere.
Moreover, the little girl was actually around 70% simr to the previous Loli Tang Li Xue.
The little girl was a stunning beauty embryo, and she also has silver hair, but she had a pair of blood crimson eyes instead of Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes.
The little girl looked so naive and innocent.
Even facing those thugs'' coercion, she still remained calm and smiled brightly to refuse their request to follow them.
Those few thugs began to run out of patience, and they forcefully grabbed the little girl''s wrist.
It seems they wanted to forcefully drag the little girl to follow them.
But no one dared to help the little girl even at this point, as these thugs seemed to be the members of the famous local gang in this small town.
Tang Li Xue could not bear to look at what they did anymore and decided to make her move.
Tang Li Xue''s slim figure shed as she appeared right in front of the little girl.
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue pped all the thugs until they fell onto the ground and coughed out a mouthful of blood.
Although Tang Li Xue did not even use one percent of her strength to p these mortal thugs, but it was more than enough to teach them a lesson.
Even their teeth were scattered on the ground because of Tang Li Xue''s p.
"Go away, you bunch of scumbags!" Tang Li Xue shouted angrily at those thugs.
"You damn b*tch! How dare you treat us like this?! Do you know who we are?! We are the members of Blood Axe Gang!" One of the thugs angrily shouted back at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and muttered in annoyance: "What a cliche line for the small bully! Listen up! I don''t care if you are from Blood Axe Gang or Blood Sword Gang, get out of my sight right now or..."
BOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue condensed a white sword with her [Energy Maniption], and the white sword flew down like a guillotine, creating more than ten meters of cracks in the ground.
The several mortal thugs got frightened by Tang Li Xue''s move and almost pissed on their pants.
They quickly ran away with the tail between their legs.
Tang Li Xue turned around and stared at the little girl, then smiled gently toward her while asking: "Little girl, are you feeling scared? Don''t worry! With big sister here, those guys would not dare to touch you again!"
"Big sister, I am not afraid!" The little girl replied with a leisurely tone.
The little girl was actually still smiling silly, without any trace of fear on her face.
Tang Li Xue did not even know anymore if this little girl was too naive and brave or if she was just mentally disabled.
"Err... then it is okay... Oh, yeah! Where is your home? Big sister will escort you back home." Tang Li Xue said as she gently patted the little girl''s head.
The little girl shook her head and answered: "I cannot go home yet."
"Eh, why? Are your parents mad at you? Did you do something wrong to piss them off?" Tang Li Xue asked again with a perplexed tone.
"No, I am a good girl! My daddy gives me a task to find a key. If I can find that key, then I can go back home." The little girl denied it and exined more clearly.
"What? A... key? What kind of key? House key?" Tang Li Xue frowned as she felt it became even more troublesome than she imagined.
"My servants are currently searching for it now. They will definitely find it soon!" The little girl spoke with confidence.
"Ah, I see! That is why you are here alone right now! So, your servants are currently searching for that key!" Tang Li Xue uttered in an understanding tone.
Tang Li Xue observed the little girl''s clothes, she was currently wearing a beautiful white dress like a little princess, so Tang Li Xue did not doubt that this little girl was from a rich family.
But Tang Li Xue still felt pissed off at the little girl''s father, how could he give such a difficult task to a 10 or 11-year-old girl?!
What if she got kidnapped by those thugs and got sold to a brothel?!
"Let''s go, little girl! Big Sister will bring you to eat delicious food first, and then Big Sister will help you look for your servantster!" Tang Li Xue said as she held the little girl''s small hand.
"Oh, right! Big Sister almost forgot! What is your name? What should Big Sister call you?" Tang Li Xue inquired as both of them entered the small town together.
"My servants usually call me the Seventh Princess. Big sister can call me Seventh!" The little girl stated while patting her chest.
"Woah, so you are a little princess! All right, Big Sister will call you Seventh from now on. Big Sister''s name is Tang Li Xue. You can call me Big Sister Xue from now on." Tang Li Xue also introduced herself while giggling at the Seventh''s cute act.
Tang Li Xue did not really care if the Seventh was the real princess of the royal family or not.
It would not affect her too much anyway since she was not a human.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, the several thugs that Tang Li Xue had beaten up before were actually run onto their gang''s boss to ask for help.
"Boss! That b*tch is really too cocky! She even dares to look down on our Blood Axe Gang! She said she did not care about any Blood Axe Gang or Blood Sword Gang, she can easily trample on us!" One of the thugs exined to his boss.
"That is right! Boss, let''s call all of our brothers and teach that b*tch a lesson she will never forget! Hehehe, let her be our ything for a few days then we will sell her to brothelter!" Another thug added with a lecherous expression.
The boss of Blood Axe Gang was also a cultivator.
That was the reason why these thugs held so much confidence in their boss.
Of course, his cultivation level was not high. He was only at the third rank of the Qi Condensation Stage.
His cultivation talent was too low, and his age was too old.
Well, if his cultivation talent was high, he would not be a small gang boss in this small town but already joined the big sect.
But the boss of this Blood Axe Gang was clearly not a rash and stupid person since he could have his current achievement with his low cultivation talent.
"Wait a minute... Did you just say that girl has silver hair, blue eyes, and wear a fox mask?" The boss inquired again with a firm tone.
The several thugs nodded in unison.
"All right, I understand. You can call the others, but you only need to keep an eye on her! She is not someone you ordinary mortals can provoke! Do you understand?" The boss gave instructions with a severe tone.
"We understand, boss! We will only keep an eye on that b*tch so she would not hide or run! We will wait for you to make your move!" The several thugs replied with serious expressions.
"Good! You can go now!" The boss waved his hand impatiently.
After his thugs went away to look for Tang Li Xue, the boss took out amunication talisman from his spatial ring, then called someone using it.
No one knew it yet, but this boss of Blood Axe Gang was actually the lowest rank member of Assassin Tower!
He had identally seen the mission about the girl with silver hair, blue eyes, and wearing a fox mask on the mission board when he was taking a look at some low-rank missions one week ago.
Of course, this mission was on the high-rank assassination mission!
Blood Axe Gang''s boss took a nce at it because the reward was too rich, and the priority level was also so high.
Just by providing the whereabouts information about this girl to Assassin Tower, anyone would get a hefty reward.
Blood Axe Gang''s boss knew he would not be able to assassinate Tang Li Xue with his current cultivation, but providing her whereabouts information to Assassin Tower should not be a big problem!
Blood Axe Gang''s boss called the Assassin Tower''s agent using hismunication talisman.
He told the agent that Tang Li Xue was currently in his town, and his subordinates were also currently keeping a close eye on her.
The agent replied that the Blood Axe Gang''s boss could im the reward from the Assassin Tower after the information was confirmed.
After Blood Axe Gang''s boss hung up themunication talisman, heughed happily in excitement.
"I do not even need to do anything, and I can get a rich reward from the headquarter! Sigh... Sometimes my luck is even scaring myself!" Blood Axe Gang''s boss said with a sarcastic tone.
Chapter 491: Assassination!
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue still did not know that a huge problem was secretly approaching her.
Currently, she was still leisurely walking hand in hand with the Seventh in the middle of the small town.
Seventh Princess stepped closer to Tang Li Xue and hugged Tang Li Xue''s arm while innocently saying: "Big Sister Xue, you smell so good! I really want to eat Big Sister Xue!"
Seventh Princess sniffed at Tang Li Xue and narrowed her eyes in intoxication as if she was smelling the scent of ultimate delicacy.
Tang Li Xue did not think of it seriously and joked back whileughing merrily: "Then you need to grow up first before you can eat me."
"All right! That is the promise! Seventh will also promise to grow up faster, so Big Sister Xue will not wait for too long!" Seventh Princess replied while jumping around happily.
Tang Li Xue alsoughed at Seventh Princess''s cuteness and patted her head.
After walking around the small town for a while, Seventh Princess''s attention seemed to be captivated by something.
When Tang Li Xue followed Seventh Princess''s eyesight, Tang Li Xue found out that she was actually attracted by the candied hawthorn stick sold by a peddler.
Tang Li Xue smiled gently as she pulled Seventh Princess to approach the candied hawthorn stick''s peddler.
Tang Li Xue bought two candied hawthorn sticks for Seventh Princess and two for herself.
Sightseeing the beautiful surrounding scenery of the mountains and river from the small town while eating candied hawthorn sticks and chatting happily with Seventh Princess made Tang Li Xue.
The sadness and anxiety from her long journey seem to be washed away right now.
Despite Tang Li Xue''s carefree and sloppy attitude, what happened to Beiming Chu and Ye Zhen still made her quite depressed.
Because Tang Li Xue was still in the process of getting used to living in this new world, and she had only lived in two different ces for some time until now.
In the Asura Demon Sect, she learned about this world''s cruelty and intrigue.
In the Myriad Foxes Academy, she learned the knowledge she needed to survive, the correct way to use her strength, and also found several close friends.
But no matter how much she saw it, she still could not get used to this world''s cruelty, especially that scummy baldy uncle, Mo Chonglin!
That scummy baldy uncle was always treating human lives as worthless as wild grass on the roadside.
After all, Tang Li Xue''s previous world was quite peaceful. Any murderer would be punished with imprisonment for life or no less than ten years.
However, murder was extremely normal in this world, especially for the powerful such as cultivators.
Although Tang Li Xue had also killed many people in the 2nd trial to enter Myriad Foxes Academy before, but she could not help it since all of them were her mission''s target, and she would also feel ufortable every time she did it.
''Wait a minute... I am a fox right now. Why should I feel guilty and ufortable when I kill humans? Because I am also human in my previous life? Then if I kill any fox in the future, would I also feel guilty and ufortable? Or would I only treat it like killing ordinary cattle?'' Tang Li Xue suddenly felt confused.
"Big Sister Xue, this restaurant looks good! How about we eat here?" Seventh Princess asked while shaking Tang Li Xue''s hand.
Tang Li Xue woke up from her stupor because of Seventh Princess''s call.
Unknowingly, she already stood in front of a two-floor luxurious-looking restaurant located at the center of this small town.
"This restaurant looks good. Okay, we will just eat here! Let''s go in, Seventh!" Tang Li Xue replied while smiling and nodding her head in satisfaction.
When Tang Li Xue entered the two-floor luxurious-looking restaurant, Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] sensed that many people were secretly spying on her.
But Tang Li Xue failed to notice them since she was absent-minded when she walked on the road before.
Tang Li Xue sensed that these people did not have any cultivation. They were clearly only ordinary mortals, Tang Li Xue could quickly guess their identity just from this fact.
''Tsk! These small thugs are really annoying. They do not even know how to give up! It seems I must give them a harsher lessonter or they will keep pestering me!'' Tang Li Xue thought while frowning deeply.
Tang Li Xue had decided to break one or two of their limbster if they dared to bother her or Little Seventh again.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to think about those thugs anymore when she saw a male waiter approach her.
Tang Li Xue immediately reserved a VIP room since she did not want these thugs to keep staring at her while she was eatingter.
The waiter took Tang Li Xue and Seventh Princess into the empty VIP room on the second floor.
From this second-floor VIP room, Tang Li Xue and Seventh Princess could see the street and shops in front of the luxurious restaurant from the window.
Tang Li Xue ordered all the signature dishes and the most expensive tea from this luxurious restaurant.
She has a lot of money anyway, so she did not afraid to spend them.
Well... Actually, it was Elder Yang''s money to be exact... Tang Li Xue stole... cough, I mean obtained them from Elder Yang''s spatial ring...
''Who cares about that, right?! It is in my hands right now, so it is my money!'' Tang Li Xue thought smugly.
It did not take long for the several signature dishes and a pot of expensive tea to be delivered to Tang Li Xue''s VIP room.
Seventh Princess quickly tasted them one by one while squinted her eyes happily.
Tang Li Xue chuckled when she saw Seventh Princess''s blissful expression, and she also took a pair of chopsticks then started to taste the dishes too.
These signature dishes tasted delicious, but they still could not match the dishes from the Myriad Foxes Academy''s restaurant.
If Myriad Foxes Academy''s restaurant was rated nine out of ten, then Tang Li Xue rated this restaurant six out of ten.
As for the food rated ten out of ten...
Tang Li Xue suddenly remembered Elder Yang''s fragrant roasted meat... and subconsciously gulped her saliva.
But she quickly shook her head to clear her mind and muttered: "Tsk, why do I suddenly think about that scumbag yboy?! It must be because I am too hungry! Let''s eat, eat, eat!"
The chopsticks in Tang Li Xue''s hands moved faster as she kept stuffing food into her mouth.
Seventh Princess smiled wider, and she also stuffed food into Tang Li Xue''s mouth.
It only took less than ten minutes for Tang Li Xue and Seventh Princess to clean all the dishes.
Tang Li Xue immediately felt something was not right!
She felt some substance start to corrode her internal organs all of a sudden!
"Damn it! These foods are poisoned!" Tang Li Xue spoke as her expression became cold.
The [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline in her body was working fast. It immediately activated and burned all traces of fatal poison residue in her blood and internal organs into nothingness!
The [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline in her body was also activated simultaneously andpletely nullified all of the negative effects of that fatal poison from her body almost in an instant.
Tang Li Xue waspletely unaffected by the fatal poison.
However, Tang Li Xue quickly realized that she did not eat these poisonous foods alone!
Seventh Princess also ate these poisonous foods!
Tang Li Xue started to panic.
She quickly jumped closer to Little Seventh and asked with a trembling voice filled with worry: "Sev... Seventh! The food is poisoned! You...quickly vomit them all out!"
However, Seventh Princess''s response was out of Tang Li Xue''s expectations.
"Um? The food is poisoned? Really? But I don''t feel anything?" Seventh Princess asked cutely while tilting her head in confusion.
Tang Li Xue checked Little Seventh''s condition carefully.
After making sure that Little Seventh waspletely fine, Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
Then Tang Li Xue frowned deeply again while muttering in confusion: "That is so strange... I am sure the food is poisoned, but why Little Seventh ispletely unaffected?"
Before Tang Li Xue could think for the reason, her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed that something dangerous wasing toward her from the roof!
Tang Li Xue swiftly pushed Little Seventh onto the wall and stood in front of Little Seventh to protect her.
BBAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGGG~!!!
Several ck-clothed men suddenly broke into Tang Li Xue''s VIP Room from the roof.
All of them held sharp sabers, and they swiftly attacked Tang Li Xue in unison.
Tang Li Xue condensed a white sword with her [Energy Maniption] and held it in her right hand.
Tang Li Xue hastily took circr steps, then swung the white sword in her grasp rapidly.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
Those several ck-clothed men took several steps back because of the impact, but Tang Li Xue also took a step back.
Tang Li Xue activated her [All Knowing Eyes (Basic)] to see their information.
[Chang San]
[Description: A veteran assassin with more than 50 years of experience. The high-ranking member of Assassin Tower.]
[Cultivation Level: 3rd Rank of Core Formation Stage]
[HP:145,000/145,000]
The other ck-clothed men also had the same information, only their name was different, and their cultivation was ranging between the 3rd to 5th Rank of Core Formation Stage.
''Veteran assassins? High-ranking members of Assassin Tower? What is Assassin Tower? One of the Four Evil Sects?'' Tang Li Xue thought while frowning deeply.
Chapter 492: The Weight of Life!
Tang Li Xue''s mind was working fast, and she instantly deduced that someone should be hiring these veteran assassins to kill her!
But who?
She only reincarnated into this world less than two years now, how could she already have an enemy out of nothing?!
Err... Someone from Asura Demon Sect? Could these assassins sent by Mo Chonglin to kill or silence her?
It should be impossible, right?!
She only met Mo Chonglin yesterday after all, and the four righteous sects should be hunting for him crazily right now!
So, he should be too busy hiding his tail for now!
How could he have the free time to hire some veteran assassins to take her head?!
Someone from Myriad Foxes Academy? A fox hired human assassins?
You must be kidding me, right?
It was even more impossible!
In short, the person who hired these veteran assassins to kill her must be a human for sure!
But after thinking about it for a while, Tang Li Xue still failed to recall anyone she had ever offended before.
Of course, there were also several small cannon fodder level characters that she had a small conflict with before such as the previous thugs, Junior Martial Sister Jian from Immortal Sword Sect, and so on.
But these people should not have enough authority, connection, or resources to hire these several Core Formation Stage veteran assassins to kill her.
''Is it possible if these assassins find the wrong target? No way! These people are veteran assassins with more than 50 years of experience, not a bunch of newbies!'' Tang Li Xue immediately denied the idea.
While Tang Li Xue was still carefully thinking deeply, the ck-clothed assassins alreadyunched another attack on her!
"Damn it!" Tang Li Xue cursed while gritting her teeth in anger.
Tang Li Xue swiftly hugged Little Seventh who stood silently behind her.
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The wall behind Tang Li Xue was shattered to pieces because of the ck-clothed assassins'' powerful attack, but Tang Li Xue was already vanished from there.
She already jumped down from the second floor of the luxurious restaurant with Little Seventh in her embrace.
After shended in the middle of the street, Tang Li Xue quickly used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] again, and her slim figure seemed to flicker, then disappear from the street.
Several ck-clothed assassins also quickly jumped down from the second floor of the luxurious restaurant to catch up with Tang Li Xue, but they failed to find Tang Li Xue''s trace.
One of the ck-clothed assassins took out hismunication talisman and said: "This is team one. The target is already missing from the starting point! Be careful, the target has extremely high-level movement technique!"
"Got it! Don''t worry, our ''nose'' will track her again. She will not be able to escape from our grasp." The voice from themunication talisman replied with a cold tone.
"Oh, right! The target took a small girl when she ran away from us. Maybe we can use that small girl to get an advantage over the target." the ck-clothed assassin reminded.
"Okay, noted! We get it. Team two already move to chase after the target." The voice from themunication talisman said before he hung up.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue already entered the alley and hid behind one of the buildings.
Tang Li Xue released Little Seventh from her embrace and worriedly checked her condition.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she made sure that Little Seventh waspletely all right.
"Are you scared, Little Seventh? I am sorry... This is my fault. Those people should be after me." Tang Li Xue apologized with a guilty tone while patting Little Seventh''s head.
But Tang Li Xue did not expect that Little Seventh still has a silly naive smile on her face as if she was not afraid at all.
"No, Seventh is not afraid. Because Big Sister Xue is here with Seventh. Big Sister Xue will surely protect Seventh, right?" Little Seventh innocently said with her usual cheerful tone.
Tang Li Xue smiled gently, but her topaz blue eyes shone with strong determination as she softly squeezed Little Seventh''s cheek and said: "Of course! Big Sister Xue will never let those bad people hurt Little Seventh."
"I..." Little Seventh nodded at Tang Li Xue while kept smiling, but before she could finish her sentence...
Several ck-clothed assassins jumped down from the top of the building while throwing secret weapons at Tang Li Xue and Little Seventh.
"Watch out!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she used [Energy Maniption] to condense a transparent barrier in front of her and Little Seventh.
CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!!
The sharp and poisonous secret weapons rained upon Tang Li Xue and Little Seventh, but all of them were blocked by the transparent barrier.
"Damn it! These annoying scums!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she gnashed her teeth in anger.
Several ck-clothed assassins quickly realized that their secret weapons were not working, so they unsheathed their saber and charged toward Tang Li Xue.
BBOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Their simultaneous saber attack shattered the transparent barrier, so Tang Li Xue could only raise the white sword in her grasp instead to block their attack.
The simultaneous attack from several Core Formation Stage veteran assassins was extremely powerful!
Moreover, their attack was fast and came from all directions!
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue had already breakthrough to the peak of the Acupuncture Opening Stage, plus her overall stats as a demonic beast and many powerful passive divine abilities... Tang Li Xue could still barely fight toe-to-toe against these several Core Formation Stage veteran assassins!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Redirection Flow!
The white sword in Tang Li Xue''s grasp was dancing rapidly as she redirected their simultaneous attack toward her right side.
BBOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Their powerful attack actually made the entire building behind Tang Li Xue crumbled apart!
After using all of their strength to attack Tang Li Xue, even these veteran assassins would reveal their w and opening for one moment.
Tang Li Xue would never let this chance go!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
Tang Li Xue''s white sword was shing swiftly toward their fatal w!
Several ck-clothed assassins hastily jumped backward as if they already knew that Tang Li Xue wouldunch a fatal counterattack toward them.
"Do it now! Kill them all!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a solemn tone.
Who knew that the other Tang Li Xue suddenly appeared behind these several ck-clothed assassins as if she already waited for the right moment to attack?!
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Rapid Quick shes!
[Rapid Quick shes] was several times faster than [Repelling Spins], since it was focused more on offense to quickly kill the enemies, while [Repelling Spins] was focused more on blocking the enemy''s attack.
It was currently Tang Li Xue''s fastest sword technique!
PUUFFF~!!! PUUFFF~!!! PUUFFF~!!! PUUFFF~!!! PUUFFF~!!!
Sandwiched between two Tang Li Xues from both front and behind, even these veteran assassins could no longer dodge or defend anymore and finally got in by Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue actually already sensed these ck-clothed assassins with her [Extrasensory Perception] long ago.
So, she secretly summoned out her perfect copy using [Twin Moon] divine ability when she entered the alley, then instructed her perfect copy to hide herself using [Ethereal Form] and waited for the right timing to attack.
After ying several ck-clothed assassins, Tang Li Xue quickly checked Little Seventh''s condition again.
The shockwave from the battle between Core Formation Stage cultivators was more than enough to identally kill any nearby ordinary mortal if she was not careful!
That was why Tang Li Xue was so worried about Little Seventh right now.
"Waaaahhh~! There are two Big Sister Xue!" Little Seventh cheerfully eximed while kept looking curiously at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and exined: "All right, Little Seventh! It is time for us to go! You can y with the second Big Sister Xue after we get out from here, okay?"
Little Seventh obediently nodded, and then Tang Li Xue quickly carried Little Seventh again while saying to her perfect copy: "I will leave those assassins to you. Just distract them for some time until I bring Little Seventh out from this town, and then you can retreat."
"Okay~! No problem~!" Perfect Copy dly epted her task this time.
She clearly preferred fighting against these assassins rather than bing Little Seventh''s babysitter.
Because she could easily retreat with [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment] anytime if she was alone.
If she became Little Seventh''s babysitter, she clearly could not do it like that since she must protect Little Seventh all the time.
For the first time, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy learned how heavy the weight of life was!
It was actually so heavy that Tang Li Xue felt suffocated by its weight!
Well, Tang Li Xue once protected two pharmacy students, but it was only toplete the mission from Myriad Foxes Academy.
Right now, she did it with her own will, and the person she protected was only an ordinary mortal this time!
Tang Li Xue piggybacked Little Seventh on her back and used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] once again.
Her slim figure flickered and vanished as she sprinted toward the edge of the small town to get out from the assassins chasing.
Tang Li Xue already thought of keeping Little Seventh in her mid-rank space pouch for a while until she got out from the assassin''s chase.
But she immediately denied the idea because Little Loki was still sleeping inside her mid-rank space pouch.
If this naive and innocent Little Seventh curiously approached Little Loki, then Little Loki subconsciously treated her as an enemy and devour her... Well, forget it... it was better and safer to just carry Little Seventh like this.
Chapter 493: Heavy Casualties!
Tang Li Xue was sprinting swiftly in the zigzag pattern to the edge of this small town with Little Seventh on her back while avoiding bumping into any pedestrians.
But suddenly, two assassins disguised as peddlers on the roadside jumped over from their stalls toward Tang Li Xue and shed their knives at Tang Li Xue''s neck!
Even Tang Li Xue did not expect this attack woulde toward her all of a sudden since she only focused her [Extrasensory Perception] to detect the movement of any ck-clothed assassins in these crowds of people.
The two assassins'' knives were already right in front of Tang Li Xue''s eyes!
It was already toote for Tang Li Xue to block their attack, so Tang Li Xue could only try to dodge them!
Tang Li Xue''s slim figure swiftly leaned backward until her head was on her back as if she was ying limbo.
SHRINGGGGG~!!!
The two assassins'' knives passed right above Tang Li Xue''s chin, and they only managed to cut a few strands of her silky smooth silver hair.
Tang Li Xue did not pay any heed to those two disguised assassins and quickly dashed again with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
''Holysh*t! That was a close one! I should be more careful next time!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she wiped a cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.
For the first time, Tang Li Xue felt lucky that she did not have a pair of big melons on her chest.
If she had them, those two assassins'' knives would surely already chopped them off by now!
"Little Seventh, are you still okay? That attack just now did not hurt you, right?" Tang Li Xue asked with a worried tone.
"Wahahahaha~! That was so much fun! Big Sister Xue, do it again~! Do it again~!" Little Seventh cheered with her usual carefree happy tone.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched in frustration.
This kid almost got killed with her just now, but she was stillughing happily as if she was having so much fun.
Tang Li Xue was 80% sure that Little Seventh has... Intellectual Disability.
But that did not diminish Tang Li Xue''s desire to protect Little Seventh.
On the contrary, Tang Li Xue''s desire to protect Little Seventh became much stronger than before.
Little Seventh''s appearance was 70% resemble her, and Little Seventh was also ''sick''.
When Tang Li Xue looks at Little Seventh, it was as if she was looking at her past self in her previous life.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her white teeth in determination as she swore to protect Little Seventh in her heart.
Meanwhile, several ck-clothed assassins were already chasing after her closely from behind.
Tang Li Xue''s expression gradually became even more solemn as she thought: ''This is strange. How could these assassins track me down so quickly and precisely?''
Tang Li Xue immediatelymunicated with her perfect copy using the mental connection between them.
Her perfect copy also got attacked by some assassins, but not as many and frequently as her.
''Are they already put some kind of tracker on me? But... when and how did they put it on me? Since in that luxurious restaurant?'' Tang Li Xue deduced carefully in her mind while frowning deeply.
The several ck-clothed assassins who were chasing behind Tang Li Xue immediately realized that they could not match Tang Li Xue''s speed and got farther and farther from her, so they immediately changed their strategy.
Several ck-clothed assassins took out something from their spatial ring and threw it toward Tang Li Xue from behind.
Tang Li Xue already sensed their move with [Extrasensory Perception] and quickly performed [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
Her slim figure shed to the right and left to avoid the ck-clothed assassins'' secret weapons, but...
BAAAAAANG~! BAAAAAANG~! BAAAAAANG~!
All of their secret weapons suddenly exploded!
"Damn it! These people are really shameless!" Tang Li Xue cursed as she hastily used [Energy Maniption] again to create a transparent barrier to protect herself and Little Seventh.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue did not afraid of these little explosions and fires at all.
She already yed with high-ranking mes, the me of Pride, and even won against the spirit beast, Sapphire Queen Wasp, in the Inheritance Ground Tablet.
How could she be afraid of these ordinary mes?!
But Little Seventh was different from her, Tang Li Xue was really afraid that these mes would hurt or even disfigure Little Seventh''s jade-like appearance.
Those assassins'' secret weapons did not only explode, but they were also spreading fire everywhere, burning the surrounding peddler''s stalls, carts, and buildings!
Pedestrians, peddlers, shopkeepers, and so on were screaming and running around in panic.
The entire street was thrown into chaos in that instant!
Many pedestrians got burned by the mes and screamed asking for help.
Shopkeepers were running around to find water to put out the mes in their shops.
Peddlers moved quickly to secure their merchandise and money.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue suddenly felt dizzy and ufortable!
Yes, even the smoke from the explosion was actually poisonous!
But as usual, Tang Li Xue''s [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline was working quickly to burn all of the poison in her body to nothingness, while her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodlinepletely nullified all of the negative effects from the poison.
"Holysh*t! These bast*rds! They even dare to use poisonous smoke in this crowded ce! They never even take civilians'' lives into consideration!" Tang Li Xue eximed as she felt anger raising from her heart.
Actually, most cultivators have never cared about the lives of ordinary mortals.
So, it was normal for these cold-blooded assassins to disregard the thousand of ordinary mortal''s lives just to catch Tang Li Xue.
On the contrary, Tang Li Xue actually has many other powerful skills, but she did not dare to use them yet here.
As anyone could see, Tang Li Xue only used her martial art skills to fight those assassins until now.
It was because she was afraid of identally hurting or even killing the ordinary mortals in this small town!
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and stopped running when she saw the chaotic situation in front of her eyes.
Several ck-clothed assassins took this chance to unsheathe their weapons and started to attack Tang Li Xue.
''Wake up my martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent]!'' Tang Li Xue urged in her mind.
A majestic golden light suddenly shone from Tang Li Xue''s body and it made several ck-clothed assassins more cautious.
They swiftly canceled their attack and took a few steps back to keep their distance from Tang Li Xue for now.
RRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRR~!!!
The loud dragon roar echoed through the entire river and mountain, frightening all the ordinary people living in this small town.
The [Golden Winged Serpent] was soaring into the sky above the small town and flew around the small town.
Under Tang Li Xue''s instruction, the [Golden Winged Serpent] started to use one of its unique skills.
[Summon Rain]!
The heavy rain was suddenly pouring from the skies, extinguishing the mes that burned the street and buildings!
While the cold humid wind dispersed the poisonous gas before it could spread and poisoned many more ordinary mortals in this small town.
Several ck-clothed assassins nced at each other and then started to summon out their martial soul too!
However, Tang Li Xue would not let them do that!
Because the battle would certainly spread, be more fierce, and took more innocent lives!
Tang Li Xue instructed her [Golden Winged Serpent] to use its [Water Control] and the surrounding rainwater trapped the several ck-clothed assassins.
[Water Prison]!
Each of several ck-clothed assassins was trapped inside the floating water ball along with their martial soul!
This [Water Prison] was not that powerful, so it could only restrain them for a few moments at most, but Tang Li Xue already prepared another attack for them!
[Golden Winged Serpent] was hovering above Tang Li Xue while staring indifferently at the trapped ck-clothed assassins, then it opened its mouth.
[Water Cannon st]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The highlypressed water cannon sprayed toward those trapped ck-clothed assassins!
Like ying billiards, those trapped ck-clothed assassins flew very far away across the street and river when [Golden Winged Serpent]''s attack struck them.
Tang Li Xue did not care about their dead or alive, she immediately ordered her [Golden Winged Serpent] to use [Healing Bubble], and its target was the surrounding wounded and poisoned mortals.
(Healing Bubble: Covered the target with a water bubble to increase the HP regeneration by 300% and heal the target for 500 HP every second.)
All the wounded and poisoned people were covered by [Healing Bubble] in an instant.
Their burn wounds recovered rapidly, while the poisoned people with purple faces also detoxified rapidly.
For powerful people with a lot of HP, healing 500 HP every second might looks a bit slow, but for these ordinary mortals, it was more than enough to fully heal them in one or two seconds.
All people on the street along with their families thought it was the [Golden Winged Serpent] who saved them, and they quickly kneeled while praying: "Thank you, Dragon God, for your help and blessing!"
Tang Li Xue smiled but she did not n to stay here for too long.
Tang Li Xue jumped high andnded on the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s back along with Little Seventh.
"let''s go fast, [Golden Winged Serpent]! We need to get out of this little town quickly, if not, the same tragic incident will certainly happen again soon!" Tang Li Xue said with a solemn expression.
[Golden Winged Serpent] roared out loud once again, and it flew swiftly toward the edge of the small town.
But how could all of the veteran assassins from Assassin Tower let Tang Li Xue go so easily?!
They also immediately took out their flying treasure and hastily chased after Tang Li Xue.
Chapter 494: Fierce Hunt!
While [Golden Winged Serpent] was flying toward the edge of the small town, Tang Li Xue quickly put Little Seventh down and checked her condition again.
"Waaaahhh~! A golden dragon! So cool! It looks so impressive! Is this golden dragon Big Sister Xue''s pet?" Little Seventh excitedly said as she squatted down and touched the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s golden body and scales.
Tang Li Xue was relieved that Little Seventh waspletely all right and energetic as usual.
However, Tang Li Xue quickly panicked when she saw Little Seventh run back and forth happily on [Golden Winged Serpent]''s back.
If Little Seventh slipped and fell down from this height, she would certainly be smashed into meat paste!
Tang Li Xue quickly grabbed Little Seventh and held her tightly.
"Little girl, can you act a bit calmer and cautious? Sigh... forget it." Tang Li Xue wanted to scold Little Seventh a bit, but she suddenly remembered that Little Seventh was an abnormal little girl.
Before Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Winged Serpent] could fly far, the other veteran assassin''s team already caught up with them!
They were riding their own flying treasure such as flying swords, flying disks, flying chariots, and so on.
Those several assassins took out some kind of chain weapon and threw them toward Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Winged Serpent]!
CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!!
With the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s huge golden body, it was not easy to dodge all of those chain weapons thrown by several assassins.
Several long-chain weapons managed to entangle [Golden Winged Serpent]''s wings and tail.
When the several chain weapons were pulled violently by those several assassins, the [Golden Winged Serpent] was forced to stop flying forward!
The [Golden Winged Serpent] roared angrily and started to resist by writhing and twisting its huge golden body.
Even Tang Li Xue and Little Seventh almost fell from the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s back.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue already held Little Seventh and grabbed tightly at the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s golden scales.
Tang Li Xue put Little Seventh on her back again while saying: "Hold on tight, Little Seventh! Big Sister is going to try to cut those chains!"
Little Seventh obediently hugged Tang Li Xue tightly from behind like a ko.
Tang Li Xue hurriedly jumped onto [Golden Winged Serpent]''s wings to cut those binding chains, but those several assassins already ran along those chains and jumped onto [Golden Winged Serpent]''s back too!
However, the [Golden Winged Serpent] was shining with golden light all of a sudden!
Who knew that Tang Li Xue suddenly changed her strategy and changed her [Golden Winged Serpent]''s form into a pair of golden gauntlets!
"I got you, idiot assassins~! Hello, idiot assassins~! Goodbye, idiot assassins~!" Tang Li Xue shouted while smiling smugly.
The surrounding rainwater converged on the several assassins and trapped them in the [Water Prison]!
Then Tang Li Xue followed it up with another attack to push them far away!
[Water Cannon st]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The highlypressed water cannon sprayed toward those trapped assassins!
Those trapped assassins flew very far away across the small town and mountain just like their previousrades.
Killing Core Formation Stage cultivators was surely not easy, so throwing them far away like this was Tang Li Xue''s only solution for now.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body also fell down rapidly, but she quickly used [Energy Maniption] to create a flying disk under her feet.
After that, Tang Li Xue drove it to fly again toward the edge of the small town.
Unfortunately, another team of veteran assassins already blocked right in front of her.
Tang Li Xue''s expression became very solemn as she scolded in an angry tone: "Damn it! They are so well prepared!"
Tang Li Xue had no choice other than to re-summon her perfect copy this time, so they could fight together against these veteran assassins.
"Err... ten, twelve, fifteen, twenty... Damn, there are so many of them here! Can we really win against them?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked with a pessimist tone.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "We don''t need to win. We just need to survive and escape from them."
"Then that is the easiest thing to do! Why don''t we..." Perfect copy blurted out confidently, but she immediately shut up when she nced at Little Seventh.
Yes, Tang Li Xue could easily get out of these assassins'' chase with her divine abilities, but it was different for Little Seventh.
While Tang Li Xue was bickering with her perfect copy, the assassin''s team received another piece of information from their teammates through theirmunication talisman: "Report! The target seems to be immune to poison. Her martial soul can control water, and it can also heal wounds rapidly. Be careful!"
"Okay, we get it! So, the only way to kill her is to behead her." The assassin''s team leader replied before he hung up themunication connection.
Tang Li Xue already secretly overheard their conversation with her [Extrasensory Perception], and she whispered to her perfect copy: "Get ready! They are starting to get more serious now!"
The perfect copy nodded at Tang Li Xue as she red cautiously at the assassin''s team.
Under the heavy rain, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were flying head to head against the team consisting of more than twenty veteran assassins!
Those twenty veteran assassins immediately surrounded Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy while unsheathing their weapons.
''I will leave the defense to you! I will only focus on offense!'' Tang Li Xuemunicated with her perfect copy through their mental connection.
When those veteran assassins brandished their weapons toward Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy suddenly spun while holding the condensed white sword.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
After the perfect copy repelled the assassins'' attack, the real Tang Li Xue shouted as she jumped forward: "Little Seventh, quickly close your eyes!"
As Little Seventh followed Tang Li Xue''s order and closed her eyes, the real Tang Li Xue swiftly took this chance tounch a fatal attack on those assassins!
[Moonlight sh]!
Tang Li Xue''s palm which was covered by golden gauntlets instantly moved with unbelievable speed.
No one could see the movement of Tang Li Xue''s palm, even these veteran assassins with more than 50 years of experience.
PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!!
The heads of six veteran assassins were cut by Tang Li Xue''s palm and flew away from their body.
But other assassins swiftlyunched another attack on Tang Li Xue without any fear or hesitation!
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was already prepared for that...
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Redirection Flow!
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue simultaneouslyunched a counterattack against those assassins!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!!
Unfortunately, those assassins were already very cautious, so they barely managed to parry Tang Li Xue''s counterattack this time.
But Tang Li Xue''s [Tracing Counter] at least managed to wound them.
Those veteran ck-clothed assassins wanted to surround Tang Li Xue and attack her from all sides. They nned to use the principle: ''two hands would never be able to defend against their forty hands''.
Unfortunately, they never thought that Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could cooperate too well, so their n backfired instead.
Well... Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were basically connected like right eye and left eye or right arm and left arm, so how could they cooperate badly?!
"Change of strategy! Just bind them all first!" The leader of the assassin''s team ordered.
The rest of the ck-clothed assassins took out their chain weapons from their spatial ring and threw them toward Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy.
"Tsk, another old dirty trick!" The perfect copy clicked her tongue in annoyance while waving her white sword to block their chain weapons.
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
But their chain weapons entangled the perfect copy''s white sword along with her arm and neck instead.
Even the real Tang Li Xue also got bound with her perfect copy along with Little Seventh piggybacked on her back.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy tried to struggle by breaking or cutting the chains, but it was all futile.
It seems these chains were specially made to bind a powerful assassination target like her.
"Finish them all now!" The leader shouted as he charged toward Tang Li Xue with a saber in his hands.
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy gritted their teeth and activated their defensive divine ability, [Golden Body], plus equipment skill from her [Arcane Tunic], [Arcane Barrier]!
(Arcane Barrier: Create a spell shield that reduces the damage taken by half. Duration: 30 Seconds. Cooldown: 20 minutes.)
CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!!
All of the assassins shed repeatedly at Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy, but they only managed to leave superficial wounds.
However, when one of their attacks almostnded on Little Seventh behind Tang Li Xue...
Tang Li Xue''s rage was instantly ignited as golden mes burned inside her topaz blue eyes!
Even the [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline in her body seems to be identally awakened again!
Tang Li Xue''s shouted in anger: "DON''T YOU DARE... TO TOUCH LITTLE SEVENTH~!!!"
[Moon Shattering Strike]!
Tang Li Xue''s vitality energy suddenly exploded outward shattered all of the chains!
Even the nearby assassins exploded into blood mist in that instant!
When Tang Li Xue awoke from her angry state, there was no more assassin around her for now.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, but she also deeply realized that Little Seventh would be in mortal danger as long as Little Seventh followed her.
Chapter 495: I Happen To Like It Too!
Tang Li Xue controlled the flying disk condensed from [Energy Maniption] under her feet to quickly fly forward again, while she put Little Seventh down from her back.
"Little Seventh, those bad guys'' target is Big Sister Xue, so Big Sister Xue can no longer apany you. Big Sister Xue is so sorry, but Little Seventh has to run away alone after we reach the jungle near this small town. Did Little Seventh understand? Can Little Seventh do it?" Tang Li Xue tried to persuade Little Seventh.
Little Seventh puckered her lips in disappointment and replied: "But Seventh still wants to be with Big Sister Xue..."
Tang Li Xue smiled sadly and exined: "Big Sister Xue know... Big Sister also wants to be with Little Seventh, but it will put Little Seventh in great danger."
"Little Seventh do not need to worry. Big Sister Xue will certainly look for Little Seventh after getting rid of these bad guys, okay?" Tang Li Xue continued while patting Little Seventh''s head.
Little Seventh reluctantly nodded her head, but her expression became gloomy.
Tang Li Xue smiled as she kissed Little Seventh''s forehead and whispered: "Good girl... Little Seventh is really cute and brave. Big Sister Xue believes Little Seventh can do it."
.....
...
.
However, there was actually someone in a worse mood than them right now...
"Losing contact with the fifth and sixth team. There is a high chance that they have already been taken down by our target." Assassin Tower''s information agent reported with hismunication talisman.
"Fifth and sixth team?! There should be more than twenty people, right? But the target took all of them down alone?! Overseer, are you sure that this target is someone we can assassinate? Herbat power is obviously too much higher than the estimated information!" One of the assassinsined from hismunication talisman.
The information agent was also very upset about losing around twenty-five veteran assassins but still failed to kill the target.
This was really not a good sign since it means the target''s strength was much higher than the information given by the hirer.
"Raise the target''s level from rank B to rank A. Hunt will continue as usual, but be sure to be careful! All of you only need to track the target and wear her down slowly. When our Rank A assassins arrive here, we will finish her off." The information agent instructed with a cold tone.
Rank B veteran assassins have 1st rank to 6th rank Core Formation Stage cultivation with more than 50 years of assassin''s experience.
Rank A veteran assassins have 7th rank to 9th rank Core Formation Stage cultivation with more than 90% assassination sess rate.
Of course, there were also Rank S veteran assassins with Nascent Soul Stage cultivation, but Tang Li Xue''s cultivation was clearly only at the peak of the Acupuncture Opening Stage...
She had not even reached Foundation Establishment Stage yet!
Assassin Tower put Tang Li Xue in Rank B target before, because the hirer''s information said that Tang Li Xue could escape even from the chase of several Core Formation Stage cultivators.
Who knew that Tang Li Xue could actually y more than twenty of their Rank B veteran assassins alone!
Unfortunately, it was already toote for them to regret having underestimated Tang Li Xue earlier.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue finally got out of the small town and flew above the nearby forest.
But there were still several persistent ck-clothed assassins that kept chasing behind her.
Unlike before, these several ck-clothed assassins did not dare to fight at close range against Tang Li Xue, they carefully kept their distance andunched attacks toward her from afar.
All kinds of secret weapons, talismans, and spells were thrown by these ck-clothed assassins toward Tang Li Xue.
BOOOOOMM~!!! BOOOOOMM~!!! BOOOOOMM~!!!
The transparent shield condensed from the perfect copy''s [Energy Maniption] divine ability was broken again for the third time.
"Oi, oi, oi... Can you think of something to counter them quickly?! They are clearly trying to wear us down first now!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined while she condensed another transparent shield to block ck-clothed assassins'' attacks.
"Shut up! Just do your job properly! Let me think calmly!" Tang Li Xue replied angrily, but she still carefully drove the flying disk in a zigzag pattern to avoid half of the ck-clothed assassins'' attacks.
Tang Li Xue actually wanted to let Little Seventh go after they went out of the little town, but she immediately canceled her intention since they were being chased so persistently by these ck-clothed assassins.
What if Little Seventh identally got hit by these assassins'' strayed attack before she could run far?!
That was the reason why Tang Li Xue kept looking for an opportunity to slip away from these assassins'' chase rather than fighting them head-on.
Moreover, these assassins became much more cautious and slippery than before, so it would not be an easy task for Tang Li Xue if she wanted to y them like the previous assassins.
''Damn it! If only they are flocking together like before, I can certainly y them down together!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in annoyance.
When Tang Li Xue tried to avoid another attack from the ck-clothed assassins, their attack still managed to strike the edge of Tang Li Xue''s flying disk!
BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s flying disk shook greatly and filled with cracks in that instant!
Even Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were standing unsteadily.
At this time, Little Seventh''s feet identally slipped from the flying disk!
"Little Seventh!" Tang Li Xue shouted in panic as she quickly charged forward and stuck out her right hand to catch the falling Little Seventh.
Little Seventh also stuck out her hands to grab Tang Li Xue''s hand.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue failed to catch Little Seventh''s hands, and Little Seventh still fell down from the flying disk!
Tang Li Xue hurriedly drove the flying disk to suddenly dive down and chased after the falling Little Seventh before she could fall onto the ground!
Several ck-clothed assassins saw what had happened and took this chance tounch fiercer attacks on Tang Li Xue!
BAAAAANG~!!! BAAAAANG~!!! BAAAAANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s flying disk finally could not hold on anymore and shattered to pieces under their attacks.
"These annoying scums!" Tang Li Xue cursed as she red at them coldly.
When several ck-clothed assassinsunched another wave of fierce attacks toward Tang Li Xue, she hastily grabbed her perfect copy''s right hand and threw it downward toward Little Seventh, so her perfect copy could catch Little Seventh.
Just as the fierce ranged attacks almost hit Tang Li Xue''s slender figure...
Her body was instantly shrouded in thick deep blue mes!
"Let''s go, dumb bird! We will show them what the good and beautiful explosion truly is!" Tang Li Xue murmured as a loud phoenix''s crisp chirp echoed from inside her body.
[Perfect Assimtion]!
[Phoenix Cloak]!
[Phoenix Wings]!
BAAAAANG~!!! BAAAAANG~!!! BAAAAANG~!!!
The ck-clothed assassins'' fierce ranged attacksnded on Tang Li Xue''s slim figure, but all of them were blocked by her [Phoenix Cloak]!
Tang Li Xue pped the deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back, and her slim figure stopped falling down and soaring into the sky again.
With one wave of her right hand, tens of [me Arrows] instantly formed and flew toward the ck-clothed assassins!
However, several ck-clothed assassins were already prepared as they swiftly raised their defensive treasure to defend themselves from Tang Li Xue''s [me Arrows].
Unfortunately for them, Tang Li Xue''s target was not their body, but the flying treasure under their feet!
BBOOOOOOMMM~!!! BBOOOOOOMMM~!!! BBOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The flying treasures under the ck-clothed assassins'' feet were also shattered to pieces, and they fell down from the sky too!
Those ck-clothed assassins hastily wanted to take out another flying treasure from their spatial ring, but Tang Li Xue would not let them do it so easily.
[Water Control]!
[Combined Water Prison]!
Those several ck-clothed assassins were trapped in the water ball, but it did not only end there!
Several water balls each containing one ck-clothed assassin suddenly gathered in one point andbined into one huge water ball.
"You like to y with explosions, right? Good, I happen to like it too!" Tang Li Xue said with a chilling tone as she condensed several deep blue [Fire Bombs] at once on the top of her palm.
In fact, Tang Li Xue really wanted to throw her [Spiral Sphere Bomb] toward them right now. Unfortunately, she could notpress [Spiral Sphere Bomb] for now because of herck of control over her upgraded me of Pride.
"It is not a big problem! Since I cannot throw a big one, then I will just need to make up for it with quantity! Taste these [Fire Bombs] condensed from the powered-up me of Pride!" Tang Li Xue spoke as she threw several deep blue [Fire Bombs] toward therge water ball which contained several assassins.
BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Several [Fire Bombs] exploded violently, sweeping the surrounding rainwater and cloud!
Even Tang Li Xue was thrown off backward for few meters because of the explosion''s shockwave.
"HOI~!!! Are you crazy?! Do you really want to kill us along with those guys?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined as she protected herself along with Little Seventh in her embrace with a transparent barrier created from [Energy Maniption].
While Tang Li Xue fought, her perfect copy already caught Little Seventh before she could fall onto the ground and quickly condensed another flying disk with [Energy Maniption], then soaring farther into the sky.
But they were still affected by the great explosion''s shockwave despite their distance from the great explosion was actually much farther than the real Tang Li Xue.
When the dust and smoke were cleared by the wind and rainwater, Tang Li Xue made sure that those several assassins already evaporated into nothingness under her several [Fire Bombs] explosions.
Tang Li Xue grumbled in dissatisfaction: "Damn, I cannot even find their spatial rings anymore! Bad decision! I should have not killed them with an explosion!"
Chapter 496: Checkmate?
After finishing off all of the assassins that were chasing after her before, Tang Li Xue immediately chose a rtively remote part of the jungle tond.
Tang Li Xue jumped down from the flying disk and put down Little Seventh, and said to Little Seventh with an unwilling tone: "Little Seventh, it is time for you to go."
"Big Sister Xue... will we meet again in the future?" Little Seventh asked with a sad tone.
"Don''t worry! We will certainly meet again soon!" Tang Li Xue replied while showing her gentle smile and patting Little Seventh''s head.
After pondering it for a while, Tang Li Xue still did not feel reassured, so she took out her white [Wind Riding Bird].
Tang Li Xue fed the white [Wind Riding Bird] with a Spirit Dew Cucumber while giving her instruction: "Listen up, you will escort Little Seventh from now on. You just need to bring her to find her servants or parentster, then you cane back after that. Understand?"
KKEAAAAKKK~!!!
The white [Wind Riding Bird] chirped while nodding its head in understanding.
"Good bird... Thank you." Tang Li Xue said again as she patted the [Wind Riding Bird]''s head and gave it another Spirit Dew Cucumber.
Tang Li Xue turned around to face Little Seventh again and exined: "This is Big Sister Xue''s mount. It will protect you and bring you back to your home."
Tang Li Xue embraced Little Seventh and kissed Little Seventh''s forehead before putting her on the [Wind Riding Bird]''s back.
"Go quickly now! Before those bad guyse again!" Tang Li Xue uttered as she patted at the [Wind Riding Bird] head.
KKEAAAAKKK~!!!
The white [Wind Riding Bird] pped its wings and quickly soared into the sky.
"Big Sister Xue~!!!" Little Seventh shouted unwillingly while waving her tiny hands at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was also waving her hands to Little Seventh and replied: "Keep healthy and stay safe! We will certainly meet again soon!"
After sending Little Seventh away, Tang Li Xue nned to attract those assassins'' attention for some time until Little Seventh fled far enough.
Then she could easily retreat with her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment]ter.
So what if those assassins have some way to track her?!
As long as she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], Tang Li Xue has full confidence that even those assassins would never be able to find her!
"Let''s go too! Those persistent assassins would definitelye after us again very soon." The perfect copy reminded Tang Li Xue and patted her shoulder.
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy jumped back onto the flying disk and flew in opposite directions from Little Seventh to draw the attention of the assassins, so those assassins would only chase them.
.....
...
.
Unfortunately, not everything in this world could go ording to everyone''s n...
Assassin Tower''s information agent frowned deeply at this time after he received the information from the target''s tracker.
"Fools! Sigh... Even the Ninth team is out of contact too right now. Eh, the targets are actually split up now?!" The information agent muttered as he considered their next action.
Tang Li Xue always thought these assassins only put the tracker on her alone.
But she never realized that these assassins actually put the tracker on BOTH Tang Li Xue and Little Seventh when they entered the two-floor luxurious restaurant before!
So, this information agent immediately found out that Tang Li Xue and Little Seventh already split up just now.
The information agent took out hismunication talisman and contacted the rest of the assassin teams.
"The targets had separated from each other and ran in two different directions. The first, second, and third teams will go after the first target. The fourth, seventh, and eighth teams will chase the second target." The information agent gave further instructions through hismunication talisman.
"I shall warn all of you again. Our main target rank has been raised to Rank A. She had taken down three of our teams so far. So, be sure to really careful when any of you meet with our main target." The information agent warned with a stern tone.
"All of you only need to stick with her and slowly wear her down while waiting for our Rank A assassins'' reinforcement toe!" The information agent reassured his teammates.
After thinking about it for a few moments, the information agent added some instructions again: "It would be better if any of you could catch the additional target alive. We can use her as our hostageter to force our main target to surrender. It will definitely make our task much easier."
"We got it! Keep our distance from the dangerous main target while slowly wearing her down and capturing the additional target, right?" the team leader replied from themunication talisman.
"Good! I wish you all the best of luck." The information agent hung up hismunication talisman.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue tried her best to drive her flying disk as fast as she could.
"Damn, they are already here! How could the speed of their flying treasures be so high?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined in annoyance as she sensed several ck-clothed assassins already almost caught up to them.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "They are veteran assassins, so of course, they should be very fast. Chasing and killing their target is already their daily job. If they are slow, all of their assassination targets would already escape from them!"
These ck-clothed assassins repeat what the previous assassins did.
They only cleverly kept their distance from Tang Li Xue while throwing all kinds of secret weapons, talismans, and spells toward her.
However, the current ck-clothed assassins kept an even farther distance from Tang Li Xuepared to the previous assassins.
It seemed they already learned from the previous assassins'' mistakes.
"Tsk, they are even more vignt and annoying than the previous assassins. Uh, wait a minute... Can they even hit us from that distance?" The perfect copy doubtfully asked.
BOOOOOMM~!!! BOOOOOMM~!!! BOOOOOMM~!!!
Most secret weapons, talismans, and spells exploded before they could even reach Tang Li Xue...
"Pfffttt~! They are really stupid." The perfect copy mocked while giggling at those assassins.
"They are not stupid. Those scums are trying to exhaust us physically and mentally with their indiscriminate attacks." Tang Li Xue told her guess.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper while thinking: ''But their movement is still strange... It is as if they were waiting for something. Waiting for their reinforcement? So, they called even stronger assassins to kill me?''
"I see, so ying many of theirrades before made them re-evaluate my strength to a higher level. Tsk, so troublesome! But this is also good for us since we need to stall more time for Little Seventh to escape." Tang Li Xue muttered her conclusion.
What happened next was just like what Tang Li Xue had guessed.
Those ck-clothed assassins kept throwing attacks toward Tang Li Xue, even though none of their attacks could hit her since their distance was too far.
But they still did not care and kept attacking her.
When Tang Li Xue slowed her flying disk, those assassins hastily retreat further.
It looked so strange, as if they were ying a chasing game instead of being seriously wanted to kill each other.
But this was what Tang Li Xue had wanted...
Attract all of these assassins to focus on her and made thempletely forget about Little Seventh.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue still did not know that the assassins'' information agent had already dispatched another assassin teams to capture Little Seventh!
.....
...
.
At this time, Little Seventh still satzily on the back of the [Wind Riding Bird].
The [Wind Riding Bird] tried its best to fly at the highest speed, but Little Seventh yawned instead, and then she held her t stomach.
"Oops, I am still hungry." Little Seventh muttered while frowning.
"Aiya~! What to do? I am so hungry~! Should I just eat you right now, white chicken?" Little Seventh said as she smiled sweetly, but her words were not sweet at all.
The [Wind Riding Bird] almost fell down when it heard Little Seventh''s words.
If the [Wind Riding Bird] could talk, it probably wanted to protest and scolded: ''Do you have a heart? I am trying so hard here to bring you back home, but you want to eat me instead!''
"Ai, forget it~! Big Sister Xue would definitely get sad or even scold me if I eat her mount." Little Seventh uttered with a reluctant tone, then she absentmindedly thought about what she wanted to eat after she went back hometer.
While Little Seventh was busily thinking about what to eat, several assassin teams already caught up and got closer and closer to her from behind.
"We finally found the additional target! We will proceed to catch her alive!" One of the ck-clothed assassins reported through hismunication talisman.
All of the ck-clothed assassins simultaneously took out chain weapons from their spatial rings and waited patiently until they were close enough to the [Wind Riding Bird].
The [Wind Riding Bird] already sensed their hostility.
It became panicked and pped its wings more rapidly to increase its flying speed even more.
Unfortunately, the [Wind Riding Bird]''s effort was futile.
After getting close enough, those ck-clothed assassins threw their chain weapons toward the [Wind Riding Bird].
Several chain weapons sessfully bound the [Wind Riding Bird]''s head, wings, body, and feet.
Then those ck-clothed assassins pulled the [Wind Riding Bird] down and forced it tond.
The [Wind Riding Bird] tried to struggle to free itself, but how could its meager strength match those several Core Formation Stage assassins?!
It did not even take those several ck-clothed assassins much effort to pull down the [Wind Riding Bird] and made itnd in the nearby forest.
Chapter 497: Indescribable Horror!
One of the assassin team''s leaders took out hismunication talisman and reported to the information agent: "The additional target has already been taken into our custody. We are currently waiting for further instruction."
All of the assassins did not even bother to tie or put any restrictions on Little Seventh since they did not sense any cultivation from her.
Meanwhile, the innocent naive smile on Little Seventh''s cute face became even more apparent until her crimson eyes squinted into the crescent-shaped.
Little Seventh jumped down from the bounded [Wind Riding Bird]''s back and started to look at the ck-clothed assassins one by one.
Little Seventh pointed her slender finger at the ck-clothed assassins and muttered softly: "One, two, three, four, five... thirty people. Hum~! Not bad, barely enough..."
One of the ck-clothed assassins noticed that Little Seventh was still smiling naively and said with a mocking tone while sneering: "Look, guys! This little one is still smiling so stupidly even in this situation. Hahahaha~! Is she stupid or what?"
"Now, I understand why our main target always wanted to protect this one. This little girl should be mentally retarded!" Another ck-clothed assassin ridiculed Little Seventh too.
The usual innocent naive smile still stered on Little Seventh''s cute face as if she did not understand their ridicule at all.
Little Seventh bowed her head and lifted her long white skirt a bit, then said with an innocent and polite tone: "Hi, Gentlemen. My name is Seventh Princess. It is a pleasure to meet you all. As an introductory gift, please watch my dance. I hope you all will be pleased."
All of the ck-clothed assassins looked at each other in confusion.
Before those ck-clothed assassins could respond, Little Seventh already raised both of her slim hands and spun her slender body around.
Little Seventh already started dancing like a beautiful little elf in the middle of the forest.
Her every movement was light but lively. It highlighted her naive and innocent temperament even more.
From the beginning, her innocent naive smile never left her stunning yet immature face.
Sometimes she yfully jumped, sometimes she lifted her skirt a bit showing her snow-white calf and spinning around happily.
All of the ck-clothed assassins were fascinated by Little Seventh''s beautiful dance and momentarily forgot what they should do.
No one had realized that the current sky during the day started to turn dark bit by bit.
Even the surrounding nts such as grasses, bushes, huge trees, and so on began to wither slowly without anyone noticing.
Little Seventh''s long silver hair followed her movement as she knelled and waved her smooth hands around while giggling happily.
Little Seventh''s beauty was shining like the brightest gem right now.
Even though her immature appearance looked like she was only 12 years old, but her pure and innocent aura made all the males yearn to pamper and caress her in affection.
One of the ck-clothed assassins raised his right hand to wipe away his drool, but he felt something hard touch his mouth.
When he looked down to check it, what he saw was a bony hand instead!
"WAAAAAAAAHHH~!!!" That assassin screamed in shock and fear.
How could his hand suddenly be a piece of rotting bone?!
Then he turned around, but what he saw was even more shocking right now.
All of his teammates already turned into a bunch of rotting skeletons!
"Hey, old man! Why are you screaming?" One of the rotting skeletons asked with displeased tone as he took a nce at the assassin who screamed just now.
"What are you... AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH~!!!" After that rotting skeleton asked, he also screamed in horror.
The other ck-clothed assassins quickly woke up from their fascination because of the scream.
When they looked around only to see the rotting skeletons around them...
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH~!!!" Shouting and screaming of fear and horror were spreading around the forest.
But the surrounding forest was alreadypletely withered.
When their scream echoed, the surrounding withering trees, grasses, and bushes turned into dust in that instant.
All of the assassins were very frightened.
They tried to urge their Qi to take out their flying treasure from their spatial ring.
They wanted to get out of this spooky ce as soon as possible, but they immediately found out that their Dantian already withered.
They did not have even a sliver of their cultivation anymore.
All of them were only ordinary mortals right now!
"Help me~!!!" One of the ck-clothed assassins that already turned into rotting skeletons reached his hand to Little Seventh to ask for her help in despair.
But before he could reach Little Seventh, that assassin turned into dust too.
One by one the ck-clothed assassins turned into dust, leaving only their ck clothes on the barren ground.
In the end, only Little Seventh was the only one left in this entire area, still with her innocent naive smile on her immature face.
Little Seventh lifted her skirt a bit and politely said again: "Thank you for watching my dance everyone. I hope all of you will enjoy your eternal rest."
Then Little Seventh patted her t stomach and blurted: "It tastes bad. But at least, I am not feeling hungry anymore."
Little Seventh turned around and nced at the white [Wind Riding Bird] that was still tied by several chains and could not move.
The white [Wind Riding Bird] was trembling hard in dread.
When Little Seventh nced at it, the white [Wind Riding Bird] almost passed out on the spot.
Little Seventh walked to approach the [Wind Riding Bird] still with an innocent naive smile on her face and said softly with a yful tone: "Hmm~! What should I do to you now, little birdie~? Should I eat you too, or should I let you go back to Big Sister Xue~?"
The white [Wind Riding Bird] rapidly shook its head as if it was begging Little Seventh to not eat it.
Little Seventh giggled as she reached her right hand toward the white [Wind Riding Bird].
The white [Wind Riding Bird] was really passed out in fright right now while its mouth spat out white foam.
BBAAAAAAAAAAANGG~!!!
Little Seventh easily tore all of the chains that bound the white [Wind Riding Bird] with her bare hand.
"Hey, you silly little bird! Stop sleeping! Let''s go back to meet with Big Sister Xue again!" Little Seventh shouted while patting the [Wind Riding Bird]''s head.
However, something jumped out from the shadow all of a sudden!
It was actually two meters slender man wearing an ancient servant outfit.
The slender man kneeled down and bowed his head, then said politely: "Servant pays homage to Her Highness Seventh Princess."
"Her Highness Seventh Princess, this... Your time here is limited. Please, her highness! Considerpleting your mission first!" The slender man kowtowed until his head touched the ground.
The innocent naive smile on Little Seventh''s immature face finally disappear as she uttered with a chilling tone: "Huh? What? You, lowly servant, dare to tell me what to do?"
RUMBLE~!!! RUMBLE~!!! RUMBLE~!!!
The ck cloud began to cover the sun and sky.
Many cracks were spreading on the slender servant''s body.
There was no blood flowing out of his body, but ck gas instead.
It was clear that this slender servant was not from the human race or beast n!
Moreover, this slender servant was a hundred or even might be a thousand times stronger than those previous assassins, but he still could not even withstand Little Seventh''s aura pressure.
"Sigh..."
Another person slowly walked out from the shadow.
This time, it was an old man in an ancient formal robe holding a tail whisk.
"So, it is Eunuch Gao. What? You also want to order me what to do too?" Little Seventh asked while sneering coldly.
If Tang Li Xue saw the current Little Seventh, she probably would not recognize the current Little Seventh.
Because the majestic and cold aura emitted by the current Little Seventh waspletely different from her usual carefree and innocent aura.
The old man did not kneel to Little Seventh.
He only bowed his head and greeted politely: "Eunuch Gao pays homage to Her Highness Seventh Princess."
"How could I, lowly eunuch, dare to tell Her Highness Seventh Princess what to do... But this lowly one is really surprised. To think this rural ind has something that could attract the interest of Her Highness Seventh Princess." Eunuch Gao inquired while smiling kindly.
Little Seventh''s mood instantly changed back to cheerful and carefree as she showed her naive innocent smile again while replying: "Un~! I met someone very interesting in the previous small town."
"Oh? I see! We left Her Highness Seventh Princess in that small town before because Her Highness said she was hungry. Who knew Her Highness Seventh Princess could meet a fated person that attract Her Highness''s interest there?! Congrattion! Congrattion!" Eunuch Gao ttered Little Seventh while giving a congrattory salute to her.
Yes, Little Seventh originally wanted to consume the entire small town before!
If Tang Li Xue did not arrive on time to ''save'' Little Seventh from those thugs before, the fate of all the people in the small town would already be the same as the current assassins!
"Sigh... It is really a big surprise. Her Highness can find someone interesting in this rural ind without any people stronger than Nascent Soul Stage. Fate is really working mysteriously." Eunuch Gao added.
Little Seventh giggled even more happily as she cheerfully told Eunuch Gao about her favorite Big Sister Xue.
Eunuch Gao patiently listened to Little Seventh''s story with a kind smile on his old face.
After Little Seventh finished her story, Eunuch Gao politely suggested: "This lowly one understands Her Highness''s joy. But Her Highness, our time toplete the task is limited. Our portal back onlysts for a few more days. If we failed toplete our task, this lowly one was afraid Her Highness''s Royal Father might get angry at us."
When Eunuch Gao mentioned her royal father, Little Seventh started to hesitate.
"How about this? We focus onpleting our task first this time. After we go back home, this lowly one will beg His Majesty, so Her Highness cane here again next time. How about it?" Eunuch Gao tried to persuade Little Seventh.
"Hummm~! All right! That is the promise then!" Little Seventh shouted with a cheerful tone.
"How could this lowly one lied to Her Highness?" Eunuch Gaoughed.
"By the way, has Eunuch Gao already gotten any information about the key''s whereabouts?" Little Seventh impatiently asked.
"Yes, Her Highness. This lowly one finds out that the key was stored in the human''s inheritance ce called Inheritance Ground Tablet." Eunuch Gao shared the information he got.
"Okay, what are we waiting for~?! Let''s go now!" Little Seventh spoke again with an impatient tone as she took a few steps forward first.
Then she halted her step and turned around while muttering: "Oh, right~! I almost forgot about you~!"
Little Seventh approached the white [Wind Riding Bird], who pretended to be unconscious until now and had almost been forgotten by everyone there.
The white [Wind Riding Bird] was trembling again in fright as she watched the Little Seventh in horror.
"Don''t worry, little chicken! I will not eat you. But I have to erase your memories about what you had seen here." Little Seventh exined as she put her right hand on the [Wind Riding Bird]''s head.
The [Wind Riding Bird] really fainted as Little Seventh forcefully erased a small part of the [Wind Riding Bird]''s memories.
After that, Little Seventh walked slowly together with the slender servant and Eunuch Gao, but with each step they took, they would instantly appear hundreds of miles away!
"Oh, right~! When will mying-of-age ceremony be held?" Little Seventh asked with a tone filled with curiosity.
"Um? Maybe around four years, seven months, twenty-three days away from today. Why is Her Highness suddenly asking about that now?" Eunuch Gao asked back.
"Nevermind~!" Little Seventh replied with a yful tone while giggling happily.
Chapter 498: Disappearing!
.....
...
.
"Err... Just so you know, the number of assassins chasing after us seems to keep increasing!" Perfect copy informed Tang Li Xue with a frustrated tone.
At first, it was only seven or eight ck-clothed assassins that were chasing after them, but now, there were already more than fifteen ck-clothed assassins.
But it all made sense since the flying speed and cultivation level of each assassin were different.
The first seven or eight assassins to arrive was the one with the 5th or 6th Rank of Core Formation Stage Cultivation plus their higher level flying treasure, so naturally they could catch up with Tang Li Xue faster than the others.
"I know! I can also sense all of them with [Extrasensory Perception]! Just try to hold on a little bit longer!" Tang Li Xue stated solemnly.
Tang Li Xue still did not know about what had happened on Little Seventh''s side just now, so she was still desperately trying to stall for more time and attract these assassins'' attention just so Little Seventh could run further.
Fortunately, these ck-clothed assassins still remained cautious of her fatal counterattack, so they still decided to keep their distance from her and only throw attacks from afar to wear her down slowly.
Thus, the current situation was actually not as bad as Tang Li Xue previously imagined.
If these ck-clothed assassins threw their lives away by crazily attacking her one by one like a bunch of rabid dogs, then Tang Li Xue would certainly have already been exhausted to death much earlier.
Another wave of attacks almost struck Tang Li Xue''s flying disk, but she quickly drove her flying disk in the Z pattern to dodge it.
Her perfect copy had also already prepared to defend by condensing a transparent shield with her [Energy Maniption] to block the iing attacks if they somewhat still hit them.
"Damn it! Aren''t Core Formation Stage Cultivators supposed to be rare? How could there be so many of them gathered here just to hunt us down?!" The perfect copyined again while gnashing her pearl-white teeth in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and also felt puzzled by it.
But Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy did not know that Assassin Tower was actually a loose organization.
Anyone could put in the bounty task to Assassin Tower, and anyone could register as an assassin in Assassin Tower.
Most of these ck-clothed assassins here might probably be elders from the four evil sects or even from the five virtuous sects who were hiding their identities.
After all, it was every cultivator''s desire to always wanted to obtain more cultivation resources, so they could get stronger and breakthrough to a higher cultivation level.
As long as any cultivator has a lot of cultivation resources such as spirit stones, they could easily buy pills, treasures, precious herbs, talismans, formations, hire bodyguards, build their own sect, and so on to increase their strength and self-protection or increase the speed of their cultivation.
The cultivation resources here were the same as money in Tang Li Xue''s previous world.
No, cultivation resources should be many times more precious than money because many things still could not be bought with money.
Compared to individual cultivation talent, cultivation resources were actually very much more important.
Did you have a low-rank spiritual root?
Then spent hundreds of times of cultivation resources, and your cultivation will surely catch up with top-rank spiritual roots!
Did your cultivation face a bottleneck?
Then spent a lot of cultivation resources to buy a barrier-breaking pill!
One barrier-breaking pill was not enough to make you breakthrough the bottleneck?
Then spam hundreds of barrier-breaking pills! Even if you are a donkey or mentally retarded, you will surely breakthrough to a higher rank!
Did your martial art talent orprehension level suck?
No worries! Just spent tons of cultivation resources to buy millions of talismans, and you no longer need to learn any spell or martial art!
Of course, the main reason why the cultivation level of this Lightwind Continent was too low because the high-level cultivation resources here were too scarce.
Well... In short, it was not strange that so many assassins came here to hunt Tang Li Xue since the bounty reward was extremely rich.
As for the reason why so many Core Formation Stage Assassins could gather so quickly in this small town to hunt Tang Li Xue down... It was actually closely rted to the previous incident caused by Mo Chonglin and his people!
Yes, most of these assassins were actually the elders from five virtuous sects with the intention to search for their missing core disciples.
But when they received the bounty information about Tang Li Xue from the agent of Assassin Tower, they immediately came here instead to kill Tang Li Xue first.
At first, they thought this would be an easy task with rich rewards, but who knew that they underestimated Tang Li Xue too much!
Moreover, these ck-clothed assassins already spent so much effort and talismans, so they were unwilling to give up halfway even though many of theirrades had already been killed by Tang Li Xue before.
Thirty ck-clothed assassins gathered here together to chase Tang Li Xue right now, and they became even more courageous as they bombarded Tang Li Xue even more frequently.
BOOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tried her best to defend against their bombardment with her [Energy Maniption], but the transparent shield she condensed was shattered again and again.
"This is not good! Their attacks are getting more and more fiercer than before! Why don''t you use your blue mes again and kick their *ss?!" The perfect copy suggested in panic.
Tang Li Xue replied angrily: "Do you think my stamina is unlimited?! I already used [Golden Winged Serpent] to heal a whole street full of people and used me of Pride to condense several [Fire Bombs] before! My stamina is already almost exhausted!"
"Then what the hell are you waiting for?! Do you want to die so badly?! Let''s just retreat from here as soon as possible!" The perfect copy scolded back.
When Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy quarreled with each other, the groups of assassinsunched another wave of bombardment toward them!
BOOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOOMMM~!!! BOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue drove her flying disk to dodge them, but around a third of their attacks still managed to hit the perfect copy''s transparent shield and her flying disk.
The transparent shield was shattered again to pieces and even her flying disk was filled with countless cracks now.
"We cannot hold on anymore!" The perfect copy warned with a solemn tone.
"I know! Just hold on a little bit longer... They clearly wait for a stronger assassin''s reinforcement team toe here before finishing us together! After their reinforcemente here to hunt us, we will retreat from here immediately!" Tang Li Xue exined her intention.
Tang Li Xue was afraid if she retreated right now, the stronger assassin''s reinforcement team would chase after Little Seventh instead.
"You idiot, you still think about that little girl even in a critical time like this! What if we are too exhausted to retreatter when their reinforcements arrive here!" The perfect copy grabbed Tang Li Xue''s cor and scolded her more harshly.
Although Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy have one soul, but they have two different bodies and two different minds, so sometimes their idea might not match with each other.
It might be the same as your mind wanting to study to get good grades, but your body wants to sleep instead.
"Ok, I get it! Let their attacks hit us, and we will pretend to fall to the ground! Then we will use [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to escape from here." Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth and finally agreed with her perfect copy.
With her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue already sensed that the group of ck-clothed assassins behind them hadunched another wave of attack.
Tang Li Xue deliberately slowed down her flying disk a bit and let a few attacks strike her flying disk.
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Her flying disk shattered to pieces and both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy fell down from the sky.
"They fall down! Let''s finish them off now!" One of the ck-clothed assassins shouted excitedly.
"Wait! What if this is their scheme to lure us closer to them?! I think we should stick to our original n and not act rashly." The other assassin suggested calmly.
"Coward! How could you be an assassin with that kind of timid spirit!" The first assassin sneered mockingly.
Some of the assassins started to argue, but the assassin''s leader started to appease them: "All right, that is enough! We will stick to our original n. Don''t forget that these young girls have already taken down three teams of ourrades, so we should not underestimate them!"
Unfortunately for these assassins, their current choice was the one Tang Li Xue hoped for the most.
As she and her perfect copynded in the nearby forest, they quickly activated their [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment].
Their slender figures turned invisible, and all of their traces werepletely covered in that instant.
''As usual, we will be running in two different directions to be safer.'' Tang Li Xue instructed her perfect copy from their mental connection.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nodded, and then she used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to run toward the east.
The real Tang Li Xue also used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], but she ran toward the west.
Meanwhile, the ck-clothed assassins werepletely puzzled since Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy seemed to have vanished into thin air.
Chapter 499: System Upgrade!
Just like what Tang Li Xue had expected, those ck-clothed assassins could no longer track her as long as she has [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] activated.
But after Tang Li Xue waspletely exhausted and decided to take rest to recover her stamina, they could immediately track Tang Li Xue again.
"These annoying scums! Oh,e on guys! Until when will you continue to follow me?! Do you all really not have any other target or work to do?!" Tang Li Xueined while gnashing her pearl-white teeth in exasperation.
Tang Li Xue also realized that maintaining both [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] would drain her stamina rapidly, let alone if she also used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to travel quicker.
So, it also made her waste more than half of her time resting and recovering his stamina!
In short, she would run out of time to participate in the Foxes Hunting Festival at this rate!
Just when Tang Li Xue was thinking hard about how to break out of this situation...
[Estimatedpletion time: 00:00:00]
[System upgrade has beenpleted!]
"System! Finally, you wake up from your sleep!" Tang Li Xue eximed in excitement.
"Okay... First, open my status window! I want to see what has changed!" Tang Li Xue instructed with an impatient tone.

Her status window''s change was actually not much. Even Tang Li Xue only discovered a few differences.
First, her elemental spirit, Blue Phoenix of Pride, upgraded to Baby Form.
Although, Tang Li Xue did not know what was the difference, but she still knew that it means her Blue Phoenix of Pride had grown much stronger than before.
As for the second change...
"Hey, system! Why the hell did all of the stats I got from my cultivation disappear?" Tang Li Xue asked angrily.
[The added stats did not disappear. The system just simplifies it, so the host will not get confused.]
[ording to the host''s current cultivation level, the overall stats increase will reach over 9,000.]
[However, it does not mean the stats from the cultivation level will perfectly superimpose with the host''s stats as a beast.]
[After all, the sources of those two powers are different. One is spiritual Qi, and the other is blood vitality.]
Tang Li Xue frowned and concluded: "I see what you mean there. So, since those two powers are frompletely different systems... it means one plus one will not get two as the result... So, you decided not to include the stats from cultivation to the stats from the beast system, right?"
[Exactly correct!]
After getting the answer, Tang Li Xue did not bother to care about it anymore.
As long as her system did not deliberately downgrade her power and make her weaker, Tang Li Xue did not really care what her system wrote in her status window.
Then the third change should be the added information about her martial arts and equipment.
But it seems only the equipment she got from the system would be recorded in her status window since it did not write anything about the [Frost Swan Sword]... Well... Although, it was already broken.
"System, can you introduce your new features after you got upgraded?" Tang Li Xue tried to ask her system.
[Of course, host.]
[The first update is about skills and divine abilities.]
[Combining any skills and divine abilities will bepletely free without any skill point cost from now on.]
"Wha... What?! Free?! For real?!" Tang Li Xue stammered in shock and excitement.
[Yes, but with the condition that all the requiredbining skills must reach the [mastered] level.]
"So, the skills must reach [mastered] level first before it can bebined into divine ability..." Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding.
[Host does not need to worry since the host can also pay some skill points now to quickly increase the skill level.]
Tang Li Xue felt as if she was doused with cold water.
She thought her system has became kinder and given her a big discount, who knew that it actually asked her to spend the skill points to increase her skill level instead right now?!
"System, why do I think that you are bing more and more like MLM sales?" Tang Li Xue asked in annoyance.
[Thank you for the praise, host.]
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Jokes aside, Tang Li Xue still thought that the new update could make her save some skill points to buy more new skills in the future. Well... as long as she was patient enough to not uselessly spend her skill points to increase her skill level.
"Any other new updates other than this?" Tang Li Xue asked again curiously.
[The second update is about equipment.]
[Host should have already noticed that every piece of equipment Host obtains from the system has the level.]
[Host can now level up your equipment''s level by paying some Deity Coins.]
Tang Li Xue almost got a heart attack when she read the information given by her system.
"Deity Coins again?! Come on, system! I am already short of Deity Coins toprehend the new cultivation technique, and now you are adding one more way to spend Deity Coins?! System... you are indeed very ruthless!" Tang Li Xue scolded while gritting her teeth in resentment.
[Thank you for the praise, host. You are wee.]
Tang Li Xue: "....."
"System, please just stated all of your updates at once before I really got a heart attack!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a frustrated tone.
[Thest update is the system mall has already been opened for Host.]
[All the items sold in the system mall are consumable items that the host has already obtained throughpleting quests before. So, if Host acquires other new consumable items, they will also be sold in the system mall in the future.]
[Host can check it on the system mall window anytime.]
"System mall?" Tang Li Xue murmured doubtfully and tried to open the system mall window.
[Recovery Pill: 1000 Deity Coins]
[Stamina Pill: 1000 Deity Coins]
[Detoxification Pill: 1000 Deity Coins]
[Comprehension Pill: 3000 Deity Coins]
[2 Times EXP Card: 1000 Deity Coins]
"Expensive! What the hell with this price?! It is all so extremely expensive!" Tang Li Xue shouted in disbelief.
"Emm... System, I still have six [2 Times EXP Card]. Can I sell it to the mall?" Tang Li Xue tried to ask.
[Sorry, but Host can only buy items from the system mall, not sell. Since it is called MALL, not scrap store. The system mall will never serve any returns of goods after you buy them, so never think about it!]
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched in anger.
"What the hell?! Aren''t this damned system mall too realistic?! I thought it would be the same as in the game! Something like we can sell the item at half of the buying price! Worst online mall ever! Zero star review!" Tang Li Xueined in frustration.
After calming down, Tang Li Xue asked again: "Oh, right... Why doesn''t this system mall sell [Lucky Sticker], [Substitute Doll], [Restoration Elixir], and all kinds of lottery tickets? Those should be consumable items too, right? Those kinds of items are the ones I need the most!"
[Because those are special consumable items. The host can only obtain those items bypleting the system quest.]
Tang Li Xue immediately closed the system mall window, since she could not afford to spend her precious Deity Coins to buy these extremely expensive consumable items.
''All right... I have more than 1500 umted free stat points. I should just use all of them to increase my strength.'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind.
Strength: 1,500 ---> 1,900
Agility: 1,500 ---> 1,900
Toughness: 1,000 ---> 1,400
Spirit: 1,100 ---> 1,500
A huge amount of energy spread around Tang Li Xue''s slender body in that instant.
Tang Li Xue suddenly fell down onto the ground as she was writhing in pain because of the huge amount of energy strengthening and tempering every part of her body and spirit.
Even her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] were automatically canceled right now.
Chapter 500: Combining Three Divine Abilities!
Fortunately, the pain did notst long, only around five minutes or so.
"Fiuh~! I almost forgot the consequence of suddenly increasing all stats, especially the spirit stat by arge amount at once..." Tang Li Xue muttered with a lingering fear as she wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.
But it could not be helped since Tang Li Xue really need more stamina, power, and speed in order to run away from those annoying assassins.
Tang Li Xue stood up again and patted her clothes to clean away the dirt and dust on her.
When Tang Li Xue felt the surging strength from her slender body, a captivating smile was blooming on her stunning face.
Her overall power at least increased by more than 30 percentpared to before.
Tang Li Xue examined her status window once again and muttered her conclusion: "So, [Soul ying Sword] is actually ssified as a martial art. This is an extremely powerful weap... err... technique. It is such a pity that I still cannot wield it freely ording to my will."
"This [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual] is another set of overpowered martial arts. It is the upgraded version of the [Four Basic Immortal Sword Techniques] which I usually use... but I also cannot use it for now since I must reach Core Formation Stage first before I can use it." Tang Li Xue said as she shook her head in disappointment.
As for her Divine Abilities and Battle Style, each of them were powerful too, but Tang Li Xue realized that she actuallycked Crowd Control (CC) type divine ability and Area of Effect (AoE) type offensive divine ability.
Of course, it would be an entirely different matter if she used [Divine Possession] with Yaya or [Perfect Assimtion] with Blue Phoenix of Pride!
But what if she was in some special situation like in the previous Inheritance Ground Tablet where she must somewhat face it alone without the help of these two?
''I should use my skill points to buy good skills to cover these weaknesses soon. Hopefully, I canbine them into powerful divine abilities. Well, maybeter after I went back to Myriad Foxes Academy.'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
She actually also has [Eclipse of Desire] regalia as a Crowd Control skill, but it could only be used on a single target, and the cooldown was also too long (3 nights cooldown after use).
"Eh? The [Eclipse of Desire] can actually be used on 2 targets now?! So good! It seems raising my spirit stat to 1500 was the right decision." Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
"OH~!!! Wait a minute... That is right~! I almost forgot one of the most important things I have been waiting for since a long time ago!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a very excited tone.
Tang Li Xue impatiently opened her status window in her system again and tapped the three of her divine abilities.
[(Innate: Strength), (Innate: Agility), and (Innate: Toughness) can bebined into Divine Ability [???]. Do you want tobine it now? Yes/No]
Yes, Tang Li Xue had long since saved her skill points tobine these three divine abilities.
Previously, Tang Li Xue need 300 Skill Points tobine these three divine abilities into a more powerful divine ability, but who knew that her system upgrade made itpletely free right now!
''Do you still need to ask?! Of course, [Yes]!'' Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to agree.
[Thebination of these three divine abilities also has three different development directions.]
[1. (Unmatched Power): Grant three times effect from Agility and Toughness stats, five times from Strength stat. Active effect: (Berserk Power: Increase the effect of Strength stat by five more times and grant Fearless buff for 15 minutes duration. Cooldown: 1 hour)]
[2. (Super Speed): Grant three times effect from Strength and Toughness stats, five times from Agility stat. Active effect: (Wings of Freedom: Increase the effect of Agility stat by five more times and grant Fast Flight buff for 15 minutes duration. Cooldown: 1 hour)]
[3. (Unbreakable Defense): Grant three times effect from Agility and Strength stats, five times from Toughness stat. Active effect: (Immovable as Mountain: Increase the effect of Toughness stat by five more times and grant Protection Barrier buff for 15 minutes duration. Cooldown: 1 hour)]
[Host, please choose your own preference direction! 1/2/3]
Tang Li Xue: ''?!''
"What the hell?! Three different development directions? This... This is so awesome!" Tang Li Xue cried out in surprise.
"But these three divine abilities are all so good... Can I just have all three of them?" Tang Li Xue asked while begging with her teary topaz blue eyes.
This time, her system did not even bother to answer her request.
"Tsk, what a cheapskate! Umm... Anyway, what are the effects of these buffs?" Tang Li Xue asked again in confusion while pointing her slender finger at the screen.
[Fearless: Unaffected by pain, confusion, paralysis, and stun.]
[Fast Flight: Grant flying ability unaffected by wind friction or sound barrier.]
[Protection Barrier: Grant barrier with triple defense and the same durability as full HP.]
"Woaaahhh~! All of these buffs are so powerful and very useful!" Tang Li Xuemented excitedly.
But it also made Tang Li Xue have a great headache and even more hesitant about which one she had to choose.
First, Tang Li Xue immediately excluded [Unbreakable Defense] since she already has [Golden Body] as her defensive divine ability, and she also might get another defensive divine ability from the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s royal jellyter.
Actually, [Unmatched Power] has the highest potential among the three, since more strength multiplier meant Tang Li Xue''s power will get several times stronger in [Divine Possession] or [Perfect Assimtion] mode.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s current situation as if forcing her to choose [Super Speed]...
Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth and unwillingly chose [Super Speed] in order for her to increase her speed even more, so she could go back to Myriad Foxes Academy on time.
[Congrattion, Host! You have got a new divine ability, (Super Speed).]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she obtained her new [Super Speed] divine ability and decided to test her current speed immediately.
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
SWOOOOSSSHH~!!!
Her slender figure vanished in an instant as she sprinted forward as fast as she could.
"Amazing~! My current speed is almost twice faster than before! Not only that..." Tang Li Xue eximed in satisfaction.
She also felt her surrounding were moving much slower than before.
It means her reflex and thinking speed also increased by almost twice too.
Her body also became a lot more flexible and resilient than before.
"Not yet! This is not my full speed yet! Activate [Wings of Freedom]!" Tang Li Xue yelled as she urged her [Super Speed]''s active effect.
BWOOOOOOSHHH~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s speed increased by twice again, and her slender figure was soaring rapidly into the sky!
(5 times agility from [Super Speed] plus 5 times agility from [Wings of Freedom], so her speed only increased twice after she used [Wings of Freedom], or 10 times Agility stat. It was NOT 5x5=25 times Agility stat!)
Previously, Tang Li Xue could only fly after she condensed a flying disk or flying sword with her [Energy Maniption], but she could not fly by herself like Sup*rman.
However, she could do it too right now after she activated her [Wings of Freedom]!
"This is awesome~! The sense of freedom ispletely different! It is so addictive!" Tang Li Xueughed happily as she swam on the cloud like a dragon.
With her current high speed, Tang Li Xue was no longer afraid of those annoying assassins easily catching up with her again, so she did not bother to activate her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] anymore.
.....
...
.
In these few days on her way back to Myriad Foxes Academy, she rarely met with assassins again.
By relying on her current extremely high speed, even if those assassins could track her, but they still could not catch up to her at all.
Tang Li Xue also met with Rank A veteran assassins with 7th rank to 9th rank Core Formation Stage cultivation on her way back, but she could easily escape from them using her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment].
"Damn it! It seems these assassins alreadypletely read the direction of my journey. It is getting harder and harder to escape from them. But this is not a big problem... I am not that far away from the space gate back to Myriad Foxes Academy anymore." Tang Li Xue muttered as her expression turned more solemn.
But suddenly...
KKKEAAAAAAKKK~!!!
The flying Tang Li Xue heard a familiar chirping sound.
Then she actually saw the white [Wind Riding Bird] actually flying toward her.
"Hey, it is you! Not bad, to think you can catch up to me with my current speed!" Tang Li Xue praised as she flew closer to the white [Wind Riding Bird], and then she sighed in relief.
Since this [Wind Riding Bird] could safely meet with her here, it means Little Seventh was all right, and she might already go back to her home.
Tang Li Xue''s speed might be several times faster than before, but [Wind Riding Bird]''s strong point was their endurance. They could fly non-stop for many days without rest.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue needs to rest and hide many times on her way back, so it wasted a lot of her time.
"Good bird! You must be flying without rest until now to catch up to me, right?" Tang Li Xue said as she patted [Wind Riding Bird] and feed it with several Spirit Dew Cucumbers.
"How about it? Did Little Seventh already meet with her servants or parents? Or did you escort her directly back to her home?" Tang Li Xue tried to ask [Wind Riding Bird].
However, the white [Wind Riding Bird] tilted its head in confusion instead when it heard Tang Li Xue''s question as if it did not understand what Tang Li Xue had talked about.
Tang Li Xue frowned when she saw the [Wind Riding Bird]''s reaction.
"Forget it... We will talk about it again wee back hometer." Tang Li Xue muttered as she threw the [Wind Riding Bird] into her mid-rank space pouch.
[Eclipse of Desire]''s power if anyone forgot about it:
[Eclipse of Desire]: locks the target''s mind and soul within their own desire, making them unable to return to reality.
(The number of targets and the might of this power depend on the user''s Spirit stat.)
(The duration of this power''s effect depends on the target''s attachment to their desire.)
(The number of targets: 2)
(Cooldown: 3 nights)
Chapter 501: Sealing Formation!
Just when Tang Li Xue wanted to continue her way back to Myriad Foxes Academy, her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed several people flying fast toward her current location.
After increasing her Spirit stats by a lot at once before, Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] has a much wider detection range right now.
"Damn it! Are they really nning to pester me endlessly to death?!" Tang Li Xue grumbled in aggravation.
Tang Li Xuended on the nearby mountain since her [Wings of Freedom]''s duration has run out, then she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to hide from those assassins that wille after her.
Tang Li Xue thought this time it would be the same as before, but who knew that those assassins were already prepared many traps to catch her after they confirmed her traveling direction now!
Normally, the other assassination targets would take a lot of detours to confuse the chasing assassins or hide themselves for some time until the assassins give up on chasing them.
But Tang Li Xue was in a hurry to participate in the Foxes Hunting Festival, so she did not have any free time to do those tricks.
BAAAAANG~!!!
"Owwuch~!" Tang Li Xue''s forehead bumped hard into something when she was running down the mountain until she took several steps back.
Tang Li Xue rubbed her painful swollen forehead while suspiciously sticking out her right hand to grope, and her right hand seemed to touch something transparent.
BZZZZTTT~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s right hand bounced back violently and feel numb.
She found out that there was actually an invisible barrier blocking in front of her.
"This is a formation? So they finally decided to be a lot more serious!" Tang Li Xue murmured in a solemn tone.
Tang Li Xue turned on her [All Knowing Eyes] to examine the transparent wall.
Even her [Extrasensory Perception] failed to detect this formation before, so it was surely an extraordinary one.
[Five Elementals Sealing Formation]
[Description: High-level formation with the power of five elementals: wind, water, lightning, fire, and earth. All five elementals bnced with each other, forming aplete cycle to suppress any creature sealed inside it.]
[Weakness: Have very powerful sealing power and almost unbreakable from the inside but fragile against attack from the outside.]
"Damn, they really mean it now! Using this kind of powerful sealing formation to catch me! I am really ttered, but I feel that I still don''t deserve this yet, right?! I have not even rebelled against heaven or stolen any peach of immortality!" Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
"But there is something new from the information given by [All Knowing Eyes]... Weakness?" Tang Li Xue uttered in surprise.
Tang Li Xue never saw this ''weakness'' information before when she used [All Knowing Eyes], maybe this was another benefit from the much higher Spirit stat.
Since this ''Weakness'' information told her that this [Five Elementals Sealing Formation] was ''almost unbreakable from the inside'', then Tang Li Xue would not waste her stamina and energy to break it from the inside with force.
Tang Li Xue used her [Twin Moon] divine ability as she tried to summon her perfect copy outside this [Five Elementals Sealing Formation], so she could use [Swap] skill to exchange position with her perfect copyter.
Unfortunately, it was aplete failure since her perfect copy was summoned inside the [Five Elementals Sealing Formation] instead.
"What a troublesome formation! So, this is what it means by having ''very powerful sealing power''." Tang Li Xue eximed in annoyance.
"Aren''t these assassins too persistent? I wonder how much is the bounty reward given to buy our head?" The perfect copy added with a curious tone.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to reply to her perfect copy''s question.
She frowned deeper while tapping her smooth white chin and thought for a while.
Finally, she decided to try it one more time.
This time, Tang Li Xue used [Shadow sh] to teleport to the tree shade outside the [Five Elementals Sealing Formation]!
(Shadow sh: Teleport to any shadow up to 100 meters away in an instant. Cooldown: 10 minutes.)
However, she failed once again and teleported to the nearby bush''s shadow instead.
It was as if she bumped again into the transparent wall when teleporting and bounced back to a nearby shadow.
"Sigh... So, it is all in vain." Tang Li Xue muttered with a disappointed tone.
"How about using your deep blue mes to set this entire mountain on fire? Or even tten this entire mountain using explosion?" Her perfect copy tried to give a suggestion.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "It is useless. I bet this perverted sealing formation should also cover the entire ground too."
As Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy discussed what they should do next, several ck-clothed assassins already got closer to their location.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy already detected them with [Extrasensory Perception].
Both of them quickly activated their [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to hide from those assassins.
When those ck-clothed assassins arrived at Tang Li Xue''s location, they did not find anyone there.
"Be careful! The target clearly has a way to turn invisible and cover her track. She might be still nearby!" One of the ck-clothed assassins warned his teammates.
Tang Li Xue scanned these ck-clothed assassins with her [All Knowing Eyes] and discovered that most of them actually has 7th rank to 9th rank Core Formation Stage cultivation.
''The strength of these assassins is way stronger than the previous assassins we met in the small town. They should be elite assassin squads especially formed to hunt us down!'' The perfect copy eximed from their mental connection.
''We will do it as usual. You will distract their attention, then I will ambush and finish them off with me of Prideter.'' Tang Li Xue instructed with her mind.
The perfect copy nodded in understanding, then she began to silently approach those vignt ck-clothed assassins.
But before the perfect copy could do anything to those assassins, she suddenly touched something cold without realizing it, and her [Ethereal Form] got canceled!
It was actually several thin and transparent threads!
"Damn it! What the hell are these things?!" The perfect copy bellowed angrily.
Those several thin and transparent threads ensnared the perfect copy''s slender body in an instant!
"Hahahaha~! So, you finally fall into my [Ice Silkworm Wire] trap!" One of the ck-clothed assassinsughed mockingly.
The perfect copy swiftly condensed several white swords with her [Energy Maniption], and those several white swords flew at high speed under the perfect copy''s control to cut the thin transparent threads.
Unfortunately, several thin and transparent threads were actually very durable and tough, even the several sharp white swords could not cut them at all.
"It is useless! My [Ice Silkworm Wire] cannot be cut so easily! " The ck-clothed assassin sneered at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Stop wasting time ying around! I have another target after this. Just take off her head quickly, and weplete our mission now." The other ck-clothed assassin scolded him.
Tang Li Xue frowned with a solemn expression as she used her [All Knowing Eyes] to observe those thin and transparent threads.
[Ice Silkworm Wire]
[Description: Wire woven from Ice Silkworm thread. It was extremely cold since it contained ice element.]
[Weakness: Tough and durable, so it cannot be cut or broken easily by force, but it is extremely vulnerable to fire.]
''So, its weakness is fire. Then it would be easy to solve!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she urged her deep blue Phoenix of Pride to wake up and perform [Perfect Assimtion] with her.
Since [Ethereal Form] could not be activated simultaneously with [Perfect Assimtion], so Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] automatically got canceled.
But out of Tang Li Xue''s expectation, she actually failed to enter [Perfect Assimtion] mode with Phoenix of Pride!
So, Tang Li Xue suddenly appeared in the middle of those ck-clothed assassins, but she failed to use [Perfect Assimtion]!
Tang Li Xue: "....."
All of the ck-clothed assassins: "....."
"Err... hello everyone?" Tang Li Xue awkwardly greeted them.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue secretly tried to enter [Perfect Assimtion] mode again or tried to use the deep blue me of Pride to burn away those [Ice Silkworm Wires].
But all of her efforts were in vain.
It seems this [Five Elementals Sealing Formation] also suppressed her me of Pride, so she could not use it here!
"There is actually another one?! By the way, which one is our target? Both of them look identical. Are they twins?" One of the ck-clothed assassins asked with a curious tone.
"Who cares if they are twins or which one of them is real or fake? Just take both of their heads toplete our mission! Let''s go! Kill them now!" The assassin''s leader bellowed angrily.
"Damn it!" Tang Li Xue cursed as she put her battle stance.
Tang Li Xue quickly unsummoned her perfect copy, and then re-summoned her again, so her perfect copy would be released from those [Ice Silkworm Wire]''s entanglement.
However, Tang Li Xue was still at a huge disadvantage right now, even though her perfect copy managed to get out from the [Ice Silkworm Wire]''s entanglement.
Moreover, it would be game over if the real Tang Li Xue got ensnared by those [Ice Silkworm Wires] instead since she could not use her me of Pride here!
Just when Tang Li Xue thought that this would be a hard and deadly fight...
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
There was a huge explosion happened right above their heads!
The transparent [Five Elementals Sealing Formation] was filled with cracks and shattered to pieces all of a sudden!
"Wha... What the hell is happening?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in shock.
Chapter 502: Rescue Squad!
"Impossible! How could our [Five Elementals Sealing Formation] possibly be destroyed?! What are those people doing outside?!" One of the ck-clothed assassins shouted in anger.
Actually, there were also many ck-clothed assassins ced outside to guard the formation.
Who knew that their [Five Elementals Sealing Formation] still got destroyed by someone from outside like this in the end.
"This feeling... Don''t tell me..." Tang Li Xue muttered in disbelief.
A tiny figure suddenly shed out from the shattered formation and flew down from the sky toward Tang Li Xue very quickly.
PLOP~!!!
The tiny figure crashed right onto Tang Li Xue''s face!
Tang Li Xue peeled away the tiny figure from her face while excitedly shouting: "YAYA~!!!"
"Yayayaya~!" Yaya happily flew toward Tang Li Xue''s face again and kissed her cheek several times.
Tang Li Xueughed in delight and kissed Yaya back.
"Yaya, how did you get here alone? The world outside is very dangerous, you know?!" Tang Li Xue asked with a worried tone while hugging Little Yaya dotingly.
But before Yaya could answer Tang Li Xue''s question, another three figuresnded near Tang Li Xue.
"She did note here alone." A mature female voice replied to Tang Li Xue''s question.
"Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, Teacher Bai Wuchen!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
Even Tang Li Xue would never expect this kind of all-star teacher team woulde here to help her!
Instructor Mei Lan knocked Tang Li Xue''s head and yfully said: "Is this the right time for you to daydream? Get yourself together! We still have to face many opponents here."
Although, Instructor Mei Lan said they have to face many opponents, but her tone was light. It was clear that she did not take these assassins seriously.
Teacher Li Wei smiled at Tang Li Xue and stated with a joking tone: "You owe me one more now."
Instructor Mei Lan''s happy expression turned cold as she red at Teacher Li Wei and scolded: "Sissy Wei, no one asked you toe here with us before. You are the one who begs to follow us!"
Teacher Li Wei became sullen and replied angrily: "Dummy Lan, do not talk nonsense! I just happened to have something to do outside!"
Instructor Mei Lan sneered and asked mockingly: "So, you are alsoing with us here by chance?!"
"Hic... Can you two stop your quarrel for now?! Hic... Look, this human reinforcement already arrived here." Teacher Bai Wuchen interrupted their conversation.
Yes, the reason why these assassins here did not rashly attack Tang Li Xue''s team yet was because they waited for reinforcement from outside to arrive first!
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the three teachers werepletely surrounded by fifty ck-clothed assassins.
However, Tang Li Xue did not feel intimidated by them at all.
"Sissy Wei, protect both of them well!" Instructor Mei Lan told to Teacher Li Wei.
Then Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Bai Wuchen stepped forward to face those ck-clothed assassins.
"Instructor Lan, I can also fight, so let''s crush them together!" Tang Li Xue tried to persuade Instructor Mei Lan.
"You do not need to do anything. If you fight alongside them, you will only be their burden and make them unable to unleash their true strength." Teacher Li Wei exined as he took out a jade amulet and threw it upward.
WWEEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
Teacher Li Wei''s jade amulet emitted white light as the protection formation carved on it was turned on and protected both Tang Li Xue and Yaya.
Tang Li Xue still frowned and felt skeptical at Teacher Li Wei''s previous words.
She felt that her strength had already grown a lot now, so how could she still be a burden for Instructor Mei Lan.
Teacher Li Wei could easily read Tang Li Xue''s inner thoughts. He chuckled at her and muttered: "You will understand what I mean soon."
"LET''S GO~!!! KILL THEM ALL~!!!" The assassin''s team leader bellowed out loud.
"Let''s begin now, Drunkard Bai!" Instructor Mei Lan urged Teacher Bai Wuchen.
Teacher Bai Wuchen uncorked his wine gourd and drank several gulps of wine while activating his divine ability, [Drunken Haze]!
[Drunken Haze]: Forcing the user to enter the drunken state, the user can inflict the other targets with the drunken state twice more powerful than what the user feels. (If the user is a drinker, the effect inflicted on others will be many times more powerful, and the Area of Effect will also be muchrger.)
All the surrounding ck-clothes assassins suddenly wobbled and felt extremely dizzy!
Then it was Instructor Mei Lan''s turn...
[Vibration Construct]!
[Vibration Wires]!
Anything Instructor Mei Lan created using her [Vibration Construct] was transparent.
As usual, Instructor Mei Lan used her [Vibration Construct] to create many thin invisible wires at once that encircled all of the ck-clothed assassins!
These assassins looked like a group of bugs surrounded by the spider web!
Moreover, these thin invisible wires were very sharp and had very high-frequency vibrations!
They could even cut steel very easily like tofu!
As for the finishing touch...
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as always and put on her snapping finger motion.
[Demonic Tune] plus [Heavenly Sound]!
CLAAACK~~!!!
A deafening sound of finger-snapping was spreading through the entire mountain and river carrying the frightening destructive vibration along with it!
All of those drunken assassins were thrown off by Instructor Mei Lan''s finger-snapping attack and got entangled in her [Vibration Wires]!
Then Instructor Mei Lan made a grasping motion with her hand and her [Vibration Wires] suddenly tightened...
Tang Li Xue quickly covered Yaya''s eyes with her palm before...
PPUUUFFFF~!!! PPUUUFFFF~!!! PPUUUFFFF~!!!
Those ck-clothed assassins were mutted into minced meat without any chance to fight back at all!
Even Tang Li Xue was stunned silly by how easily Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Bai Wuchen massacred those annoying assassins!
However, Tang Li Xue must admit that their divine abilitiesbo was so perfect!
Suddenly got heavily drunk by Teacher Bai Wuchen''s [Drunken Haze], then got struck by Instructor Mei Lan''s destructive finger-snapping attack...The ears, brains, and minds of those assassins would be already turned into mush under that divine abilitiesbo!
Then Instructor Mei Lan only needs to finish them off using her [Vibration Wires]...
Those ck-clothed assassins surely died without even having any time to think about what hit them!
"Did you look at that? If you fight alongside them, they will never be able to use that kind of indiscriminate attack freely like that!" Teacher Li Wei added to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue tapped her smooth chin and thought deeply: ''Both Teacher Bai Wuchen''s [Drunken Haze] and Instructor Mei Lan''s finger-snapping attack have the effect to paralyze or stun the surrounding enemies. Sigh... I must create my own Crown Control type skill or divine ability like them too as soon as possible.''
"Instructor Lan, why did youe here? Did you know that I was in trouble, so youe here to help me out?" Tang Li Xue curiously asked because their arrival timing was really on time.
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression turned solemn as she nced at Teacher Bai Wuchen and Teacher Li Wei.
"This is not the right ce for us to discuss this. Who knows if these humans'' reinforcement wille again?! Let''s go back to our home first!" Teacher Li Wei replied while taking out his [Wind Riding Bird].
Tang Li Xue put Yaya on the top of her head and took out her white [Wind Riding Bird] from her mid-rank space pouch too.
"Oh, right. Those assassins surely put some kind of tracker on your body. Let me clean it for you first!" Teacher Li Wei said as he took another talisman and stuck it onto Tang Li Xue''s back.
Teacher Li Wei''s talisman seems to melt onto Tang Li Xue and cover Tang Li Xue''s entire body for a few moments, then disappear.
"Thank you, Teacher Li Wei. You really should teach me how to make this kind of talismanter!" Tang Li Xue thanked Teacher Li Wei while him to teach her.
"No problem." Teacher Li Wei replied while smiling at Tang Li Xue.
All of them rode their own [Wind Riding Bird] and soared into the dawn sky together.
It only took them around two days to reach the hidden space gate in the middle of the forest near the valley.
Thankfully, they did not meet any mishaps on their way back.
Maybe they gave up because Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Bai Wuchen had killed so many of them before...
Or maybe it was because they could no longer track Tang Li Xue''s location anymore...
Anyway, Tang Li Xue''s group did not meet with assassins anymore on their way back.
They ordered their Wind Riding Birds tond there, and Instructor Mei Lan took out her white jade badge from her space pouch, then raised it to open the hidden space gate back to Myriad Foxes Academy.
After the space gate has opened, all of them stepped forward and entered the space gate together.
When they got out from the space gate, they stood in the middle of the giant ring inside the giant bright room.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and eximed in relief: "Huuuaaaaahh~!!! I finallye back home! I only leave for one month or so, but it feels so long!"
"All right, since we have alreadye back home safely... Then we will tell you why we bring Yaya out to look for you before." Instructor Mei Lan spoke as she took out a bamboo tube from her space pouch and gave it to Tang Li Xue.
The power of Instructor Mei Lan''s two divine abilities:
[Demonic Tune]: Amplify the sound''s vibration by many folds ording to the user''s strength.
[Heavenly Sound]: Amplify the sound''s volume by many folds ording to the user''s strength.
Chapter 503: Shocking News!
Tang Li Xue frowned while looking curiously at Instructor Mei Lan and the bamboo tube.
Tang Li Xue still felt confused at Instructor Mei Lan''s vague words, but she still obediently took the bamboo tube from Instructor Mei Lan and slowly tapped it on her forehead while closing her eyes.
Then Tang Li Xue saw a majestic tall mountain covered with white mist.
However, Tang Li Xue felt that this majestic tall mountain was somewhat quite familiar to her...
"Wait a minute... This... This is Cang Yuan Mountain, right?! But... but... but... where the hell is the huge Inheritance Ground Tablet on the top of the mountain?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock as she suddenly opened her topaz blue eyes in disbelief.
"That is right! The Inheritance Ground Tablet suddenly disappeared without any trace from Cang Yuan Mountain a few days ago. We were worried something bad happened to you, so we bring Yaya to look for you." Instructor Mei Lan exined more clearly.
"Ya yayaya~!!!" Yaya babbled while staring at Tang Li Xue with a worried look.
Tang Li Xue still felt stupefied by the previous shocking scene, but she also felt warm by the concern of Yaya, Instructor Mei Lan, and the other two teachers.
So, Instructor Mei Lan and two teachers brought Yaya out with them because they wanted to use Yaya''s mental connection with Tang Li Xue to track Tang Li Xue''s whereabouts before.
"Is that news really true? But how could that huge Inheritance Ground Tablet suddenly disappear without any trace?!" Tang Li Xue asked with a tone filled with disbelief.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes again and replied: "We all know about it, but it does not rule out the possibility that Asura Demon Sect got assistance from another continent''s higher-level powerhouse."
"Sigh... There are so many spections, but wepletelyck crucial information. The problem was that all the people and cultivators around Cang Yang Mountain at that time also vanished without any trace too. There are no witnesses at all." Teacher Li Wei blurted another piece of information.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue got a chill on her spine right now.
If she did not leave Cang Yang Mountain and decided to hide or rest there for a few more days before... then would she also vanish without a trace too right now?!
No wonder Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and Teacher Bai Wuchen hastily brought Yaya to find her before!
But Tang Li Xue still felt very strange about this incident.
It was like the thieves wanting to steal something important, then they thought that it was too troublesome to look for it so they just took the entire house instead.
That was too sloppy, right?
And also... If they were a high-level powerhouse from another continent stronger than anyone else in this Lightwind Continent just like Teacher Bai Wuchen said, then why did they need to be so sneaky?
Did they need to be afraid of misceneous weak cultivators from this Lightwind Continent?
''Unless they did it in this way to hide something... Urgh... something like... wait a minute, what if they were not from the human race?! Sigh... My guess is getting more and more ridiculous. Just forget it! This is not my job anyway.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head to clear her confused mind.
"All right, that is enough. We are not getting anywhere with only this kind of vague information." Instructor Mei Lan dismissed their discussion.
Instructor Mei Lan faced Tang Li Xue again and kindly reminded her: "The situation outside will be very chaotic, so it will be best if you do not go out alone anymore from now on. Even if we go out again together for a missionter, you must be much more careful."
"I understand, Instructor Lan." Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding.
Then Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan again in reluctance: "Err... Instructor Lan... about those assassins. Can you help me find who hired them to kill me?"
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as she replied with a light tone: "That is easy to do. Those humans should be the killers from Assassin Tower. It is a loose organization, so I am sure, we have some fox agents nted there."
"I will tell you the information tomorrow. You should go back home and take a rest for today. But do not forget to go to ss earlier tomorrow." Instructor Mei Lan chuckled as she waved her hand to Tang Li Xue and walked away toward Education Department with the other two teachers.
Tang Li Xue also slowly walked back toward the direction of the Residential Building with Yaya sitting on her shoulder.
She enjoyed the crowded street scenery of Myriad Foxes Academy.
Different from when she was in the human city or town, all the people... or rather foxes in human form here had a furry tail and a pair of fox ears too, so she did not need to cover her tail and fox ears.
Tang Li Xue felt much more rxed herepared to the world outside.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue and Yaya to reach Residential Building, but she did not go directly to her room.
Tang Li Xue decided to bring Yaya to the luxurious restaurant on the first floor of the Residential Building and treat Yaya to eating some expensive luxurious delicacies to celebrate that she sessfully avoid disaster and safelying back to Myriad Foxes Academy again today.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya greedily gobbled the delicious expensive meals to their heart content until they were full, and their stomach bloated a bit.
But after that, Tang Li Xue felt the pain of spending her credits to pay for it.
''Sigh... I should work harder to make more talismans and sell themter to replenish my thinning credits.'' Tang Li Xue thought with a depressed expression.
Tang Li Xue brought Yaya to get on the hovering disc up to the 32nd floor.
But before Tang Li Xue entered her room, she decided to knock on the Silly Fox room and Bingbing room to say hi to them first.
She did not see these two for more than one month, so she kind of missed them too.
Unfortunately, it looked like both Silly Fox and Bingbing were not in their room right now.
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment and went back to enter her room.
It was still the same closet-sized room at first until Tang Li Xue inserted her card into the ck tiny box behind the door.
Then the surrounding scenery suddenly changed, and she was in front of therge courtyard full of beautiful flowers now.
"Huff~! Finally~! My home sweet home~!" Tang Li Xue took a deep breath while walking toward a two-story ancient Chinese house in the middle of the courtyard.
The first Tang Li Xue did after she entered her house was to undress and brought Yaya to take a warm bath with her!
It was extremelyfortable after a long journey that Tang Li Xue soaked in the warm flower bath for almost one hour.
After going out of the bathroom with Yaya, Tang Li Xue quickly headed to her bedroom and jumped onto her beloved soft bed, then fell fast asleep instantly with Yaya.
.....
...
.
When Tang Li Xue woke up again, the skies outside the window already turned dark.
Tang Li Xue sat on her soft bed while muttering in an excited tone: "This is the time~!"
Tang Li Xue did not wake up the sleeping Yaya.
She took out several items from her space pouch and system storage, then line them up in front of her.
Six [2 Times EXP Cards]...
Sapphire Armored Wasp''s Royal Jelly stored in the Green Gourd...
Sapphire Armored Wasp''s Honey stored in the spatial ring...
[Comprehension Pill]...
"Hmmm~! What should I do first?" Tang Li Xue whispered while cutely tilting her head.
Tang Li Xue peeked at Green Gourd and the spatial ring.
She took out a bit of Royal Jelly and Honey from Sapphire Armored Wasps then checked them with her [All Knowing Eyes] first to look at their effects.
[Sapphire Armored Wasp''s Royal Jelly]
[Description: Extremely high nutritious jelly secreted by Sapphire Armored Wasps. Used to feed wasprvae and queen wasps.]
[Effect: Increase Strength, Toughness, and Agility by a lot. First-time consumption will have a one hundred percent chance to awaken defense-type divine ability ording to the consumer race.]
[Sapphire Armored Wasp''s Honey]
[Description: A sweet nutritious product made by Sapphire Armored Wasps that is endowed with yummy vor and a lot of medicinal uses.]
[Effect: Cures any wounds, disabilities, disease, poison, curse, silence, paralyze, confusion, blind, mute, deaf, concussion, soul injury, and so on. ]
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath after she read the effect of the royal jelly and honey.
"Aren''t these two things too powerful for God''s sake? It feels rather wasteful to just consume all of them to increase my level..." Tang Li Xue murmured while frowning.
Then she decided to keep half of the Royal Jelly and Honey for future use.
She also wanted to share them with Silly Fox, Bingbing, and Instructor Mei Lanter. Oh, right... Teacher Bai Wuchen and Teacher Li Wei too, since they also went to save her before.
"All right, I will do thatter. For now... Let''s use some Deity Coins toprehend a martial art first, then consume [Comprehension Pill] to master it faster!" Tang Li Xue said as she opened her system status window.
There were two powerful martial art secret techniques that Tang Li Xue wanted to learn... [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] and [Essence Devouring Technique]!
Unfortunately, she only has a little bit more than 1300 Deity Coins right now. While she needs to spend 1500 Deity Coins if she wanted to learn both of them...
Chapter 504: Defense Type Divine Ability!
''Comprehending [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] would cost 1000 Deity Coins, while [Essence Devouring Technique] would cost 500 Deity Coins...'' Tang Li Xue checked the cost of two martial arts one by one.
"Damn it! Why do I only have 1300 Deity Coins?! I stillck 200 Deity Coins! System, can you please give me a 20 or 30 percent discount this time, so I canprehend both of them? Pretty please~!" Tang Li Xue tried to beg from her system.
But the system did not even bother to answer her unreasonable request and acted as if it did not hear anything.
"Tsk~! Cheapskate system~! Zero star review~!" Tang Li Xueined in displeasure.
Tang Li Xue tapped her smooth chin with her slender finger and started to ponder carefully.
In the long run [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] was certainly a much better choice, since it could help Tang Li Xue bring out the power of her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline as the medium of Yin and Yang.
Butprehending [Essence Devouring Technique] would certainly help Tang Li Xue right away since it could cover one of her biggest weaknesses, her sustainability.
Tang Li Xue''s divine abilities might be very powerful, but they also consume too much of her energy or stamina.
The most obvious examples were when she passed out from extreme exhaustion after defeating Sapphire Wasp Queen, or when she was almost exhausted after killing tens of assassins and was forced to flee from the rest of them before.
However, it would be a different story if Tang Li Xue has [Essence Devouring Technique] back then.
Not only did Tang Li Xue could recover her energy or stamina from devouring their essence after killing them, but she could also gain EXP too!
You should know that Tang Li Xue did not gain EXP from killing the living creatures, but by eating them!
In short, mastering [Essence Devouring Technique] would not only increase her sustainability but also give her one more way to gain EXP!
Getting more EXP means that she could level up faster and evolve faster in the future!
After considering carefully it for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth and made a decision in her heart.
*Ding!
[Do you want toprehend the (Essence Devouring Technique) at the cost of 500 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
After hesitating again for a few seconds, Tang Li Xue finally chose ''Yes''.
Tang Li Xue had a hunch that she would really need this [Essence Devouring Technique] soon.
Especially since she would be participating in the Foxes Hunting Festival a few dayster.
The information about [Essence Devouring Technique] flooded into her mind in that instant.
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes as she quickly digested the information about [Essence Devouring Technique].
Tang Li Xue already knew that this [Essence Devouring Technique] was a very evil Ancient Martial Art Technique before, but there was more detailed information about it after shepletelyprehended it.
This [Essence Devouring Technique] was actually made by imitating the horror ability of the Undead Race!
By mastering it, Tang Li Xue would be able to devour all kinds of energy from her surroundings and opponents, then convert it for her own use.
If Tang Li Xue mastered [Essence Devouring Technique], she could easily devour the enemy''s Qi, life force, Vitality Energy, soul power, and so on until the enemy turned into dust, then convert it to increase her own cultivation, level, or she could also use it to recover her own stamina, Qi, and Vitality Energy.
But unfortunately, this [Essence Devouring Technique] was still much weaker if itpared to the true ability of the Undead Race.
One of the biggest differences was that this [Essence Devouring Technique] could only be activated if there was physical contact between the user and the target.
Meanwhile, Undead Race''s ability could devour all of the energies from the opponent several miles away without even touching them!
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes after digesting all of the information about [Essence Devouring Technique] while muttering in amazement: "What an amazingly powerful technique..."
"If I could master it quickly and wield it along with my [Energy Maniption] divine ability, then the power of this [Essence Devouring Technique] would be even more unimaginable." Tang Li Xue said with an excited tone.
Yes, if she could integrate [Essence Devouring Technique] and [Energy Maniption], then everything she condensed from [Energy Maniption] divine ability such as the usual white swords, arrows, javelins, and so on could trigger the Essence Devouring effect every time they touched the enemies!
"Okay, all I need to do is to keep practicing this [Essence Devouring Technique] until Ipletely mastered it. If I practice after I swallowing the [Comprehension Pill], I can proficiently wield it in one night, but that is forter!" Tang Li Xue spoke as she stared at the Green Gourd right now.
Tang Li Xue used her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy jumped down from the bed and excitedly yelled: "Is it already time for me to taste the royal jelly and honey?"
Tang Li Xue nodded and told her perfect copy: "That is right. You take two bottles from the kitchen first."
Perfect copy impatiently ran out from the bedroom using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], her slim figure shed to the kitchen and retrieved two bottles from the cab, then shed back into the bedroom again.
It did not even take her a tenth second to do it with her current super speed.
Tang Li Xue poured out the Sapphire Armored Wasp''s royal jelly from the Green Gourd into the two bottles.
Why did Tang Li Xue suddenly share the royal jelly with her perfect copy right now?
Tang Li Xue actually got a sh of inspiration after she saw the effect''s description from the royal jelly with her [All Knowing Eyes].
[First-time consumption will have a one hundred percent chance to awaken defense-type divine ability ording to the consumer race.]
Then what will happen if she and her perfect copy consumed the royal jelly at the same time?!
Will both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy awaken the same defense-type divine ability or different defense-type divine ability?
This really made Tang Li Xue very curious, so she decided to share the royal jelly with her perfect copy right now and drank it simultaneously with her perfect copy!
"All right... On my count. 3, 2, 1, GO! Drink it!" Tang Li Xue instructed while gulping all the royal jelly in the bottle.
Her perfect copy also drank it at the same time as her.
*Ding!
[You have consumed a precious treasure and sessfully arouse your (Pure Sun Dragon) bloodline. You have awakened (Sun Dragon Armor) divine ability!]
*Ding!
[Your perfect copy has consumed a precious treasure and sessfully arouse your (Imperial Moon Fox) bloodline. You have awakened (Moon Emperor Protection) divine ability!]
"Sess~!!! From now on, I will have three defense-type divine abilities~! Ahahaha~!!!" Tang Li Xue shouted whileughing excitedly.
But it was actually not over yet...
*Ding!
[(Sun Dragon Armor) and (Moon Emperor Protection) had shing elements, so they started to have violent confrontations with each other!]
"Wha... What?! How could..." Before Tang Li Xue could finish her words...
Tang Li Xue suddenly felt her entire body be extremely hot, then one secondter, she became extremely cold... It kept changing like that every second!
It was truly a hellish experience!
Just when Tang Li Xue almost passed out...
*Ding!
[Under the effect of (Golden Body) divine ability, both (Sun Dragon Armor) and (Moon Emperor Protection) started to blend into one with it!]
[Congrattion! You have obtained (Sun And Moon Aegis) divine ability!]
The hot and cold effect subsided, but Tang Li Xue was covered in sweat, and her stunning face became extremely pale.
"Huff, huff, huff... Damn it! That was too dangerous... I really should not be too greedy." Tang Li Xueined while breathing heavily.
After calming down and taking a few minutes of rest, Tang Li Xue checked the effect of her new divine ability.
[Sun And Moon Aegis]:
*Increase overall defense (physical and elemental) and status resistance by 100%.
*Reduce any damage received by 30%.
*Reflect 25% of the damage you received as pure damage to your nearby opponents.
*Every 1% of your lost HP will increase your health regeneration by 10%.
*Automatically resist deadly blows 3 times a day.
*Purify any debuff, poison, or curse every 5 seconds.
*Any damage you receive under 1000 points would be nullified.
*Active effect: Grant Sun And Moon Protection (Became invulnerable for 1,5 seconds. Cooldown: 1 day)
Tang Li Xue instantly became dumbfounded when she saw the overpowered effect of her new divine ability, [Sun And Moon Aegis].
"What the hell?! This, this... Isn''t this divine ability too powerful?!" Tang Li Xue stammered in shock and disbelief.
Moreover, this [Sun And Moon Aegis] was a passive divine ability, so Tang Li Xue did not need to manually activate it, and it will not interrupt [Ethereal Form] anymore like the previous [Golden Body]!
"Worth it~! All of my sufferings before are very worth it! Ahahahaha~!" Tang Li Xue yelled happily in excitement.
"And it is not over yet~! There is one more powerful ability that I can obtain~! Uwehehehe..." Tang Li Xue murmured as she smiled from ear to ear.
Tang Li Xue took out five Golden Cores from her space pouch.
Yes, these five Golden Cores were obtained after Instructor Mei Lan killed those high-ranking assassins with Teacher Bai Wuchen before!
Tang Li Xue begged Instructor Mei Lan to give these five Golden Cores to her since Tang Li Xue really need these five Golden Cores toplete the Chain Side Quest (II) from her system and obtain the 2nd power from Regalia of Eclipse!
Chapter 505: Regalia of Eclipse 2nd Power!
"Okay, let''s begin~!" Tang Li Xue yelled in an impatient tone.
She took one of the five Golden Cores and threw it into her mouth.
The Golden Core melted in Tang Li Xue''s mouth and turned into pure spiritual energy.
Just like before, the spiritual energy from the Golden Core did not turn into EXP to increase Tang Li Xue''s level but it flowed into the space between her eyebrows instead.
*Ding!
[Chain Side-Quest (II): The Quest for Power]
[Quest: Consume 5 Human''s High-Rank Golden Cores (1/5)]
[Reward: Regalia of Eclipse 2nd Power!]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she read the notification from her system after she finished devouring one of the Golden Cores.
"All right, continue!" Tang Li Xue took another Golden Core and started to digest it again one by one.
After half an hour, Tang Li Xue finally digested all of the five Golden Cores.
*Ding!
[Quest: Chain Side-Quest (II): The Quest for Power has beenpleted!]
[Reward: Regalia of Eclipse 2nd Power!]
WEEEEEEEEENGGG~~!!!
Massive amounts of spiritual energy, vitality energy, and spirit power drained rapidly from Tang Li Xue''s slim body and sucked into the space between Tang Li Xue''s eyebrows!
"I knew this will happen! Thankfully, I am already much more prepared right now!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she took out a small hill of Spirit Stones and piled them around her bed.
Then Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes and started to focus on absorbing the spiritual energy from the surrounding spirit stones.
When Tang Li Xue awakened the 1st power from the Regalia of Eclipse before, it almost sucked dry all of her Vitality Energy and Spiritual Energy in her body.
But unfortunately, Tang Li Xue still underestimated the massive amount of energy needed to awaken this 2nd power from the Regalia of Eclipse!
Even after she absorbs the spiritual energy from the surrounding spirit stones at her fastest speed, Tang Li Xue still failed to keep up with the speed of the Regalia of Eclipse draining all of the energy from her body!
Her perfect copy quickly put the palms of her hands onto Tang Li Xue''s back from behind.
She also helped Tang Li Xue to absorb the spiritual energy from the surrounding spirit stones, and then transferred them to Tang Li Xue.
The mysterious eye of the eclipse appeared once again between her eyebrows.
The mysterious eye of the eclipse was so beautiful yet looked ethereal as before, but there was a trace of ancient breath leaking out this time.
The surrounding space began to tremble and distort, even thin cracks started to spread on the wall of Tang Li Xue''s bedroom.
Yaya who was fast asleep was woken up by themotion created by Tang Li Xue.
"Ya? Yayaya~?!" Yaya babbled with a worried tone when she saw Tang Li Xue''s pale face.
Yaya immediately knew that something was wrong with Tang Li Xue, so she quickly turned into green light and flew toward Tang Li Xue, then merged into her body.
[Divine Possession]!
Four pairs of beautiful crystal-like fairy wings emerged from Tang Li Xue''s back.
Her topaz blue eyes also turned light green like a pair of green emeralds and a silver tiara decorated with many glittering green gems on the top of her head.
*Ding!
[Divine Possession has been initialized by Yaya!]
The previous Yaya might not be able to help Tang Li Xue much, but the current Yaya was different!
Before Yaya was trained by Instructor Mei Lan''s mother, Mei Qingzhu, Yaya was only at one digit level, but after she received strict training from Mei Qingzhu for more than one month, Yaya had grown to level 21 now!
Tang Li Xue''s stamina instantly recovered by arge amount and even her pace face also turned rosy again.
Currently, energy consumption from awakening the 2nd power of Regalia of Ecpilse and the spiritual energy absorption from the surrounding spirit stones finally reached the bnce.
After fifteen minutes or so, Tang Li Xue slowly opened her eyes and exhaled the turbid breath.
"Damn! That was too close!" Tang Li Xueined as she wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.
If all of the spiritual energy, vitality energy, and soul power in her body got drained before, the Eclipse of Desire would start to drain her life force!
At that time, her lifespan would keep decreasing, and she would be like a mummy!
Although, it was still possible to recover themter with precious treasures such as the Sapphire Armored Wasp''s honey, but it would take a lot of time!
Foxes Hunting Festival was only a few days away from now, so how could Tang Li Xue recuperate herself slowly!
*Ding!
[The Eye of Eclipse has been sessfully strengthened!]
[The user has awakened the 2nd Power from the Regalia of Eclipse!]
[The Regalia of Eclipse 2st Power: Eclipse of Sins!]
*Ding!
[Chain Side-Quest (III): The Quest for Power]
[Quest: Evolve to (Rare) Grade Beast.]
[Reward: Regalia of Eclipse 3rd Power!]
"Eclipse of Sins? And also... a new chain side quest?" Tang Li Xue muttered as she read the notification from her system.
Tang Li Xue impatiently opened her status window and looked at the information of her Regalia of Eclipse.
Regalia: Eclipse [Eclipse of Desire, Eclipse of Sins]
Tang Li Xue tapped the [Eclipse of Sins] to read the description of this new power.
[Eclipse of Sins]: Condemn the target for all the mistakes, sins, and crimes that the target hasmitted throughout their life.
Effect: The target would see or perceive the illusion from time to time and get weakened, slowed, and received damage over time from the illusion. The target would also receive more damage from the user''s attack at this time.
(The number of targets and the might of this power depend on the user''s Spirit stat.)
(The duration of this power depends on the sins and crimes that the target had been done in their lifetime.)
(The number of targets: 1)
(Cooldown: 3 days)
"What the hell is this?! Err... the power of this [Eclipse of Sins] is a bit confusing, but it sounds very powerful, right? Well... since there are so many debuffs effects inflicted on the enemy..." Tang Li Xue whispered with an uncertain tone.
Tang Li Xue nced at the pale perfect copy and really wanted to test the power of this [Eclipse of Sins] on her so badly.
The pale perfect copy could easily read Tang Li Xue''s intention since their mind was connected, and her expression turned cold in an instant.
She also stared back at Tang Li Xue and scolded: "You heartless human... No, I mean you heartless fox! I just use all of my strength to help you get that [Eclipse of Sin], but you want to use me as a guinea pig to test that [Eclipse of Sin] instead!"
Tang Li Xue also became awkward and embarrassed.
Thankfully, Little Yaya canceled their [Divine Possession] and worriedly hugged Tang Li Xue''s face to break her embarrassment.
"Thank you very much for your help, everyone!" Tang Li Xue said to Yaya and her perfect copy.
"Humph~! It''s not like I really want to help you, okay?!" The perfect copy replied coldly while turning her face away.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Since when did you change your character set to tsundere... Ok, whatever... you can just do what you like!
Actually, Tang Li Xue nned to use all of 2 times EXP cards and consume more Sapphire Armored Wasp''s royal jelly and honey to rapidly increase her EXP and level, but she was already exhausted physically and mentally now, so she decided to do it tomorrow instead.
''There is no need to rush so anxiously. I still have a few more days to prepare before the Foxes Hunting Festival starts!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she calmed down her mood.
"Sigh... Let''s go to sleep again! I also must get up early tomorrow to attend Instructor Mei Lan''s ss. If Iete, Instructor Mei Lan would surely make me regret living!" Tang Li Xue murmured while shuddering in fear.
Tang Li Xue hugged Little Yaya and jumped onto her soft bed again.
But before she went to sleep, she threw the prehension Pill] to her perfect copy and instructed: "You can recover your spiritual Qi first, then take this pill and start practicing [Essence Devouring Technique]."
After giving instructions, Tang Li Xueid down on her soft bed with Yaya in her embrace and fell asleep.
The Perfect copy: "....."
"You are really a heartless fox..." The perfect copyined softly, but she still put the prehension Pill] on her pink lips and swallowed it, then start practicing [Essence Devouring Technique].
When the prehension Pill] melted in her body, theprehension and training speed of the perfect copy instantly increased by many folds in an instant!
"Sigh... It is such a pity for a powerful effect... If both of us train [Essence Devouring Technique] together right now, the speed of mastering it would certainly increase again." The perfect copy whispered with a regretful tone.
But she quickly closed her topaz blue eyes again and focused on performing [Essence Devouring Technique].
.....
...
.
As the morning sunlight entered the bedroom through the gap in the closed window, Yaya slowly opened her emerald green eyes.
Yayazily flew out from Tang Li Xue''s embrace while rubbing her sleepy eyes.
Yaya opened all of the windows and let the morning sunlight spread into the bedroom, then she started to wake Tang Li Xue up.
"Oh shoot! We are almostte!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she hastily jumped down from the bed and brought Yaya to take a quick bath together.
After wearing their clothes neatly in front of the mirror and tidying their hair, Tang Li Xue faced her perfect copy and said with a stern tone: " You can follow me to Education Department Building, but you have to keep practicing [Essence Devouring Technique] in the empty ssroom or training roomter. Don''t bezy! We only have a few more days before the Foxes Hunting Festival started!"
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "Just rest assured! I know what to do!"
After increasing her Spirit stat by a lot, the movement range of her perfect copy became a lot farther.
It should not be a problem even if her perfect copy stayed outside the building while she attend Instructor Mei Lan''s ss inside the Education Department Building as long as her perfect copy did not go out from Myriad Foxes Academy.
Yaya, Tang Li Xue, and her perfect copy went out of the room together, but Tang Li Xue still decided to knock on Silly Fox''s room and Bingbing''s room to check if they were at home.
After receiving no answer for a few minutes or so, Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment.
In the end, she decided to give up and went out of the Residential Building with Yaya and her perfect copy, then quickly headed toward the Education Department Building.
Chapter 506: Bloody Treasure Island!
Meanwhile, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao had finished their special training and also heading into the ssroom to attend Instructor Mei Lan''s ss too.
The aura of both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao hadpletely changed maybe because they were affected by Instructor Mei Lan''s hell-level special training.
Bing Yi let out an extremely cold aura that rejects all people... or foxes, giving them the sense of distance thousands of miles away.
While Hei Yinghao gave a very sharp murderous aura as if he wanted to kill every creature he met.
When both of them met in the corridor in front of the ssroom, their aura shed violently with each other!
"Step aside, Ice Block! Let me enter the ss first!" Hei Yinghao said with a hoarse voice mixed with thick killing intent.
"It is you who should step aside, Silly Fox. Only I can enter the ss first!" Bing Yi red coldly at Hei Yinghao and replied with an alienated chilling tone.
Hei Yinghao''s wicked killing intent became much thicker as he warned with a heavy tone: "Ice Block, do you want to die so badly?"
Bing Yi squinted her eyes dangerously as her chilling aura became much colder until the entire corridor was covered with thin frost.
Bing Yi red at Hei Yinghao and answered with an icy tone: "Silly Fox, you have be so arrogant now. It looks like I need to make you remember where your ce is."
Hei Yinghao emitted a few sparks of his ck lightning and the surrounding thin ice covering the corridor started to crack, then shattered like fragile porcin.
CRACK~!!! CRACK~!!! CRACK~!!!
But Bing Yi refused to lose and emitted an even colder frosty aura!
Hei Yinghao''s ck lightning and Bing Yi''s extremely cold frosty aura shed violently!
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi were too focused on suppressing each other aura, and they failed to notice that Tang Li Xue already walked in the corridor and heading toward the ssroom.
When Tang Li Xue approached the ssroom, she saw Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi facing each other.
Tang Li Xue immediately felt extremely happy since she did not see them for more than a month, so she missed both of them a lot.
Tang Li Xue ran toward them, but she immediately realized that the atmosphere between them was not right, so she asked with a curious tone: "What are you two doing here? Why don''t you two enter the ssroom? Is the ssroom still locked?"
"Little Xue~!!!" Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao shouted in surprise at the same time.
Bing Yi''s extremely cold temperament and aura melted in that instant as her eyes became teary, and she quickly hugged Tang Li Xue.
"Little Xue~!!! I really miss you so much~! Little Xue, you do not know how much I suffer this month~! U, I even almost died!" Bing Yi cried like a big baby while tightly hugged and seekingfort from Tang Li Xue.
Hei Yinghao stared at Bing Yi with eyes full of envy.
Tang Li Xue patted Bing Yi''s back and consoled her: "I understand, Bingbing. I also almost died several times this month. But we got much stronger now, right? So, our sacrifice and effort were not in vain."
Meanwhile, Yaya puffed her cheek cutely in jealousy, then she quickly pushed Bing Yi away to separate her from Tang Li Xue.
After that, Hei Yinghao imitated Bing Yi''s act before and opened his arms, then ran toward Tang Li Xue while saying: "Little Xue~!!! I really miss you so much too~! Little Xue, you do not know how much I suffer this month~! U, I even almost died in the hands of that devilish Instructor Lan many times!"
Both Yaya and Bing Yi quickly blocked in front of Tang Li Xue like a pair of bodyguards while staring full of disdain at Hei Yinghao.
Who knew that the ssroom''s door slowly opened while there was a gentle sounding out from behind the door: "Ohh~, so I am a devilish instructor now?"
Hei Yinghao''s body instantly became tense and stiffened.
As he hesitatingly turned his head to see the ssroom''s door, Instructor Mei Lan already stood there with her signature gentle smile on her soft beautiful face like Guanyin Bodhisattva.
But Hei Yinghao''s reaction was so exaggerated as if what he saw was a demon lord or ghost god.
His expression turned into fear and horror as he swiftly ran and hid timidly behind Tang Li Xue instead.
It looks like Instructor Mei Lan''s special training really gave Hei Yinghao an unforgettable mental scar.
"I seem the special training I give you is still too lenient. Don''t worry, next time I will be sure to increase the difficulty. Now, let''s all enter the ssroom now. We will begin the lesson soon." Instructor Mei Lan instructed as she ignored Hei Yinghao''s mournful cry and entered the ssroom again, then sat leisurely on the teacher''s seat.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, Yaya, and Hei Yinghao quickly followed and entered the ssroom too.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue was very curious about what kind of hellish special training Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao had received from Instructor Mei Lan before, but this was clearly not the right time to ask about it.
Tang Li Xue decided to ask them after Instructor Mei Lan''s lesson was over, and they walked back to Residential Buildingter.
"There are only two more days left before the Foxes Hunting Festival start. So, today, I will exin to all of you what you need to prepare and do when the Foxes Hunting Festival startster." Instructor Mei Lan slowly stated with her gentle and soothing voice.
Instructor Mei Lan distributed a jade badge to each of them one by one except for Yaya, since Yaya would follow Tang Li Xueter.
"You can drip your blood into that jade badgeter. When the Foxes Hunting Festival starts, you will be sucked into that jade badge to participate in the festival, so you do not need to panicter." Instructor Mei Lan exined clearly.
"After that, you will be sent to the rich isted ind full of treasures, but of course, those treasures would not appear all at once. They would only appear one by one. The first to appear would be the least valuable ones, and then they will gradually be more and more valuable and precious as time passed." Instructor Mei Lan added with a solemn tone.
"From this, you should understand, right? It means the longer youst in this Foxes Hunting Festival, the more likely you will obtain much more precious treasurester!" Instructor Mei Lan pointed out the crucial information to them.
Tang Li Xue frowned a bit as she thought for a while and raised her right hand to ask.
Instructor Mei Lan pointed her slender finger at Tang Li Xue to let her ask the question.
"Instructor Lan, you said we mustst longer in the festival to obtain more precious treasures, so what if we have a dispute with other foxes over those precious treasures? Should we kill them, beat them up, or just restrain them? If we are banned from killing other foxes, doesn''t it means all of us canst until the end of the festival?" Tang Li Xue asked her puzzlement.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and exined again: "Oh, right... I almost forget to tell you about that. Even if you get killed in the Foxes Hunting Festival, you will not really die. You will just get kicked out of that treasure ind and go back to where youe from. That jade badge will also automatically shatter."
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in understanding.
"Because of that, you do not need to hesitate to kill any foxes you have met, since the other foxes will also never spare your life tooter. That treasure ind will be a giant meat grinder." Instructor Mei Lan warned them with a harsh tone.
Instructor Mei Lan thought for a few moments and gave another example: "All of you should have heard about Gu. The way to create Gu is to gather hundreds of poisonous insects and sealed all of them in a huge jar. They will start devouring each other until only one strongest insect is left. This Foxes Hunting Festival adopted the same principle as that Gu."
Instructor Mei Lan let them digest the information she told them for one or two minutes while checking out her students'' expressions one by one.
''These little ones look brimming with confidence now. It seems their arrogance be a bit inted after they got a little stronger. At this rate, they would certainly make rash moves and onlyst a few days at best in Foxes Hunting Festivalter.'' Instructor Mei Lan concluded.
Although, Instructor Mei Lan said that she only wanted her three students to gain more experience in the Foxes Hunting Festival, but she actually also secretly hoped that her students could obtain some benefit in the Foxes Hunting Festivalter.
After hesitating for a while, Instructor Mei Lan decided to give them several more hints and warnings.
Instructor Mei Lan took a deep breath and continued her lesson again: "I know all of you feel that you are already strong enough. But I still honestly suggest that the first thing you should do after you arrive at the treasure ind is to hide yourself."
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao instantly frowned deeply and asked in a disapproving tone: "Why?"
Different from Tang Li Xue who has the stealth-type divine ability, the divine abilities of both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were more about the frontal battle.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and replied with a cold tone: "Do you really think all of the foxes participating in the Foxes Hunting Festival are soft persimmons? Those foxes are top geniuses in their own continent or ce."
"Meanwhile, you three could only barely count as geniuses since you do not have enough time, experience, and training to mature yourselves. In fact, you three are still not qualified to participate in this grand event of the Foxes Hunting Festival yet." Instructor Mei Lan let them know some harsh truths.
"If not for the three rmendations from me, Sissy Wei, and Drunkard Bai plus my old man pulled some strings from inside, you three would really not be able to take part in this grand festival." Instructor Mei Lan added.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao looked at each other in bewilderment and shame.
Tang Li Xue decided to ask again to clear her confusion: "Then Instructor Lan... How can we obtain some precious treasures if we only hide ourselves? Can we just steal them from those genius foxes?"
Instructor Mei Lan pondered for a while again, but she still decided to tell them another piece of important information so they could survive longer on that bloody treasure ind.
"Sigh... All right. Next, I will tell you a few phases of the situation that would happen after you enter the treasure ind. This will also be thest piece of information I can give to you all." Instructor Mei Lan uttered with a solemn expression.
Chapter 507: Prey, Predator, and Apex Predator!
"Eh, what? A few phases of the situation? What does that mean?" Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi asked simultaneously in bewilderment.
Even Tang Li Xue with her knowledge of novels, animes, and games, still failed to understand Instructor Mei Lan''s cryptic words.
"At first when you all enter that treasure ind, you will be teleported to a random location. At that time, the ughter festival would truly begin. This is the first phase that will divide all of you into two categories, predator and prey." Instructor Mei Lan slowly exined.
But Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao became even more confused.
Tang Li Xue raised her hand again and asked again: "Err... Should we find the precious treasures first before we fight with others to seize them?".
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and replied: "It would be toote by then. What would happen if many weaker foxes cooperate to seize those treasures? Even stronger genius foxes would get overwhelmed if they wanted to seize those treasures from so many foxes alone."
"That is the reason why the stronger genius foxes would immediately weed as many weaker foxes as they could the moment when they enter the treasure ind." Instructor Mei Lan paused a bit before she continued again.
"This is the most important phase where the stronger genius foxes would scramble to determine their own territory and be the predator for the weaker foxes." Instructor Mei Lan stated clearer.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao nodded their head in understanding.
"After cleaning all of the weaker foxes from their territory, those genius foxes... or we should call them predators now, could leisurely take or even consume any precious treasures that appear in their territory. This is the end of the first phase, and it would also be your first safe point if you can survive until this step." Instructor Mei Lan said as she stared at her students one by one.
Instructor Mei Lan told the next information with a calm tone: "Then it will be the time to enter the second phase where those predators would sh against each other to determine the true king, we usually called it the apex predator!"
"The apex predator will not kill the predators from other territories, it will only beat them up. It is because the apex predator will not want to spend so much of its time collecting precious treasures from so many territories."
"So, those defeated predators must be the apex predator''s vassals instead, and those vassals also must offer around 50% to 70% of the precious treasures they found in their territory to the apex predator."
Instructor Mei Lan ended her exnation and to a few sips of tea to moisten her throat.
Tang Li Xue and the others werepletely stunned by the information given by Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and asked Tang Li Xue and the others: "Next, I will ask you. Which one do you think you will beter? Prey, predator, or apex predator?"
"That... we..." Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao started to hesitate and began to think about which one they would be.
''Ummm... I have obtained several new overpowered abilities now... After my cultivation breakthrough to Foundation Establishment Stage and increasing my level with royal jelly and honey from Sapphire Armored Wasps, I should at least be able to be the predator, right?'' Tang Li Xue considered carefully.
"Before you answer my question, you should know that the strongest team from our continent could only barely be the predator. Even Bingbing''s older sister team could only be prey once they enter the treasure ind." Instructor Mei Lanmented while ncing at Bing Yi.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao fell silent for a few while as their expression turned gloomy.
"So... we can only be the prey too?" Hei Yinghao muttered with an unwilling tone.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled at Hei Yinghao''s question and replied with a light tone: "That is why I said you all must hide first and patiently wait for the chance to grab or steal some precious treasures or resources to strengthen yourselves."
"You all can also use this chance to observe those geniuses closer to widen your horizon and gain more experience. I, as your teacher, believe that the three of you will certainly surpass those geniuses someday in the future." Instructor Mei Lan consoled them with her usual gentle tone.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao became less depressed as they heard Instructor Mei Lan''sfort.
As for Tang Li Xue?
Well... She has her system, so she actually did not need Instructor Mei Lan''sfort at all.
She believes that she will certainly surpass those geniuses faster than anyone!
No... Actually, Tang Li Xue felt that she only need to evolve one more time and reached the Beast Lord grade, the same grade as Silly Fox, Bingbing, and those geniuses, in order to surpass them all!
In Demonic Beast Grade or [Umon] Grade, she could already match those with Beast Lord grade or [Rare] Grade...
If she reached Beast Lord grade or [Rare] Gradeter, didn''t it mean she could even defeat those Spirit Beasts easily?!
''Tsk, tsk, tsk... As I expect from the greatest genius such as myself! Even I was frightened by my own talent sometimes!'' Tang Li Xue thought smugly.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded in satisfaction when she saw that Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao toned down their arrogance now.
But if Instructor Mei Lan knew what Tang Li Xue was thinking right now, she would probably smack hard Tang Li Xue''s head in annoyance.
She wasted so many words and saliva to break their arrogance, but Tang Li Xue only got more conceited instead.
Then Instructor Mei Lan continued her lesson again: "All right, that''s it about the Foxes Hunting Festival. Now, we will discuss another matter. If you three, immature brats, are the prey, and the strongest foxes in each continent are the predators, then who do you think the apex predator is?"
Instructor Mei Lan''s question clearly pulled the trio''s curiosity once again.
"Old fox with a lot of experience?" Bing Yi guessed.
"It should be a peerless genius with the blood of an ancient holy beast, right?" Hei Yinghao randomly said.
"No, no, no... I think it must be a fox with the protagonist temte and has a lot of lucky encounters!" Tang Li Xue answered while imagining the main character in novels or movies.
"Well, not bad. But all of your guess is only a little bit correct." Instructor Mei Lan shook her head.
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression turned more solemn as she muttered: "It is the peerless genius foxes from Central Continent."
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao became dumbfounded by Instructor Mei Lan''s answer.
However, Tang Li Xue was not as surprised as the other two.
Because Tang Li Xue had already heard some clues about how far the standard of the Central Continentpared to the other small continents such as their Lightwind Continent from the previous inheritances she got from Inheritance Ground Tablet before.
Both Evil Ghost Emperor and Heavenly Sword Immortal were also cultivators from the Central Continent.
They left their inheritance in a remote ce such as Lightwind Continent because they were run away from the Central Continent for different reasons.
"Why?" Are the genius foxes from Central Continent really that strong?" Hei Yinghao asked again with an unconvinced tone.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and thought that her students were really still too tender and innocent.
Instructor Mei Lan began to patiently exin to her students: "There are several reasons why all the creatures from Central Continent are much stronger than other continents."
"First, their poption is hundreds of times more than the other continents, so there would make sense if they have more geniuses, and thepetition there would also be much fiercer than the other continents."
"Second, there are constantly fierce battles and even tragic wars between the three races: Beast, Human, and Undead. So, they certainly will receive more tempering and experience in battles and wars."
"Third, the spiritual energy there is also many times thickerpared to the other continents. So, breaking through in cultivation or evolving to higher grade are many times easier in Central Continent."
"Fourth, this might be the most important reason above all. There are so many high-level treasures or resources there. Even legendary-level treasures or resources are avable there. The top-rank powerhouses might even have mythical-level treasures or resources."
Instructor Mei Lan took a deep breath and added one more shocking piece of information:
"Just so you know, there was an ordinary jungle boar who identally eat a mythical-level resource, Dragon Blood Fruit, and sessfully evolve into Dragon Horned Boar there. Its strength is almost equal to the True Spirit Beast."
This time, not only Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao, even Tang Li Xue almost dropped her jaw in shock.
That was the True Spirit Beast! Not the suppressed False Spirit Beast that Tang Li Xue had faced in Inheritance Ground Tablet!
Almost have equal strength to that kind of monster?! Are you kidding me?!
Instructor Mei Lan smiled in satisfaction when she saw her three students be speechless in an instant.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan did not tell them that Mythical-level resources were actually very very rare like a phoenix feather or qilin horn.
Even every top-rank powerhouses in Central Continent probably only have two or three Mythical-level resources stored carefully in their deepest warehouse.
"In short, those genius foxes from the Central Continent have a lot of experience in fiercepetition between their peer, bloody battles, and tragic wars against other races plus they should also already receive high-level resources or even above. So, how could you threepete with them?" Instructor Mei Lan said as she pushed down their confidence again.
For Instructor Mei Lan, it was all right to be a little bit cowardly rather than have excessive confidence. At least, the cowardly foxes usually lived much longer than the arrogant foxes.
Chapter 508: Two Fox Tribes in Central Continent!
After beating down her students'' arrogance, Instructor Mei Lan continued her lesson: "The power structures of Central Continent are extremelyplicated. There are so many high-level resources there, but it also means that it would create many more conflicts of interest even between each of the three races."
"Even our Fox Race is not an exception. In Central Continent, Fox Race is split into two different factions called Qing Qiu Fox Tribe and Tu Shan Fox Tribe." Instructor Mei Lan told her three students another shocking truth.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and asked with a puzzled tone: "Our Fox Race divided into two different factions in Central Continent? But... Why?"
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao also stared at Instructor Mei Lan with eyes filled with curiosity.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled at them and answered: "Because the two factions have different opinions on what they should focus on."
"Tu Shan Tribe wants to nurture genius foxes with the highest talent, potential, and growth speed, while Qing Qiu Tribe wants to focus on bloodline purity and the power of the bloodline. Two factions develop on twopletely different paths." Instructor Mei Lan exined to clear their confusion.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao only got more confused instead by Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation.
No... They could understand Tu Shan Tribe''s intent, but they still did not understand what Qing Qiu Tribe wants from their bloodline.
Instructor Mei Lan immediately understood their expression and added even more details: "It was said that the inheritance from our bloodline was unlimited. If we can unearth even a bit of it, we can awaken extremely powerful abilities."
Instructor Mei Lan knew that her three students were still bewildered, so she told them an example: "You three should have already known the power of [Battle Style] awaken from each of your bloodlines, right?"
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao nodded in unison.
"[Battle Style] hidden in our bloodline itself is already quite powerful and almost as strong as Divine Ability. But other than [Battle Style], there is actually one more type of powerful ability that every beast can awaken from their bloodline. This powerful ability was said to even surpass the power of Divine Ability." Instructor Mei Lan whispered to them as if she told them secret information.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao became even more curious, so they leaned forward to Instructor Mei Lan and asked: "What kind of ability is that?"
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and muttered to them slowly: "It is the mysterious but extremely powerful ability hidden in the high purity bloodline inherited from our ancestor called... [Regalia]!"
"Re... Regalia?" Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao uttered with amazement.
Tang Li Xue blinked her topaz blue eyes and dumbfoundedly thought: ''Err... wait a minute... Why does it sound so familiar?'' Puuuufff~! Isn''t that talking about my [Regalia of Eclipse]?!''
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression turned serious as she revealed another truth:
"Because Qing Qiu Tribe was aiming to awaken the power of [Regalia], they wanted to separate the foxes with high bloodline purity as the royal fox family and the ordinary grassroots foxes with low bloodline purity."
"The high bloodline purity foxes could only marry among themselves, and they would receive many high-level resources or above to nurture their strength."
"Of course, many grassroots foxes with low bloodline purity were not convinced by this, since some grassroots foxes actually have extremely high potential and a powerful set of Divine Abilities. Why did they need to bow their heads to the work for the royal fox family?!"
"Thus, they separated themselves from Qing Qiu Fox Tribe and created Tu Shan Fox Tribe."
Instructor Mei Lan ended her story and took another sip of her tea.
The eyes of Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao were glittering like stars as they asked impatiently: "Instructor Lan, can we also awaken the power of [Regalia]?"
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and replied with a harsh tone: "Stop daydreaming~! it is impossible for outsider foxes with a mixed bloodline like us to awaken [Regalia]!"
"[Regalia] is the powerful ability inherited from their ancestor. Do you think your ancestor is a Nine-Tailed Sky Fox or something? Will such a godlike beast even want to live in this kind of remote ce like our Lightwind Continent where the spiritual energy is so thin?!" Instructor Mei Lan sneered at them.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched violently and silently thought: ''I am sorry everyone. There is one fox over here that already awaken [Regalia]...''
When Instructor Mei Lan stared at the silent Tang Li Xue, Tang Li Xue quickly averted her eyes.
Instructor Mei Lan has such a scary mindreading skill, even Tang Li Xue was very afraid that Instructor Mei Lan could really read her mind right now.
But Tang Li Xue did not know that Instructor Mei Lan had already guessed some clues from her strange behavior.
''This Little Xue is really... sigh... She has human cultivation, can summon out martial soul, have many powerful divine abilities while only in the Demonic Beast grade, and so on... Don''t tell me she also has Regalia too?! I am really curious now. Little Xue, where are you obtaining all of those from?'' Instructor Mei Lan asked in her heart curiously.
But no matter how smart Instructor Mei Lan was, she could never guess that Tang Li Xue actually got all of those from her system.
"So, you three must remember! If you someday go to Central Continent, you can only join Tu Shan Fox Tribe. Only Tu Shan Fox Tribe might appreciate your talent and potential, then give you some chances to prove yourselves. If you join Qing Qiu Fox Tribe, you will only be ves for that royal foxes family." Instructor Mei Lan gave a stern warning to her three students.
"Of course, if you sessfully awaken [Regalia] someday, you can join Qing Qiu Fox Tribe and be a true member of the royal fox family. You can certainly receive much more high-level resources or above easily." Instructor Mei Lan added while staring at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue guiltily lowered her head and did not say anything.
"All right, That is it for today! The ss is over now!" Instructor Mei Lan dered while standing up from the teacher''s seat.
"Thank you for the lesson, Instructor Lan!" Both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao said politely to Instructor Mei Lan.
However, Tang Li Xue still frowned and thought deeply, so she did not say anything.
''Instructor Lan, Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and the others might join Tu Shan Fox Tribe in the future... But what about me?'' Tang Li Xue pondered carefully.
Like Instructor and the other two, Tang Li Xue naturally wanted to join Tu Shan Fox Tribe too along with them, but her hunch said she will certainly have a conflict with Qing Qiu Fox Tribe if she really did that.
Qing Qiu Fox Tribe valued [Regalia] power very much. They wanted to maintain the high-purity bloodline, which was why they only allow high-purity bloodline foxes to marry among themselves.
If Qing Qiu Fox Tribe knew that she had awakened [Regalia] power, how could they let her mix with grassroots foxes in Tu Shan Fox Tribe?!
''Sigh... My head is hurt... Whatever~!!! That is the problem in the future, so let''s just leave it for the future me to solve it! Good luck and please be strong, future me~!'' Tang Li Xue decided to do her usual thing, since she could not solve the problem now, then just forget it and do what she could do now.
Even though Tang Li Xue thought so, she still wanted to prepare herself earlier, and the first thing she must do was to look for more information.
Tang Li Xue approached Instructor Mei Lan before she could walk out the ssroom''s door and asked: "Instructor Lan~! Can you tell me more details about those two fox tribes in Central Continent? I am really curious about them!"
Instructor Mei Lan stared intensely at Tang Li Xue for a few moments until Tang Li Xue could not hold on anymore and averted Instructor Mei Lan''s gaze.
Then Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as usual and took out a book with a blue cover from her space pouch and gave it to Tang Li Xue while saying: "This is the book containing the more detailed information about those two fox tribes."
"Usually, this book would only be given to the foxes who wish to go to Central Continent to seek higher evolution opportunities. Now, I will lend it to you first." Instructor Mei Lan made it clear to Tang Li Xue, and it means Tang Li Xue should never disclose the information about the two fox tribes n this book to other foxes without permission.
But Tang Li Xue was very shocked instead and asked with an anxious tone: "Instructor Lan... Since you have this book, does it mean you n to go to Central Continent soon to seek evolution opportunities?"
Instructor Mei Lan smiled more tenderly when she saw Tang Li Xue''s anxious look.
She patted Tang Li Xue''s head and said with a reassuring tone: "Not yet... At least, I will keep teaching you three until the three of you be more mature and can take good care of yourselves."
Tang Li Xue became even sadder when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s answer since it means the three of them would probably be Instructor Mei Lan''sst students in this Lightwind Continent.
Even the mood of Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao became gloomy when they heard the conversation between Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue from behind.
Chapter 509: Painful Betrayal?!
"You all don''t need to be that sad or worried about me. On the contrary, you should hope that I will go quickly to Central Continent, arrive safely there, and sessfully evolve into a Spirit Beast, so you three would have solid backing in the future." Instructor Mei Lan tried to cheer them up.
The mood of Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao did not change at all, and they still fell silent while staring at Instructor Mei Lan in sorrow.
The ssroom atmosphere seems to be gloomy and depressing.
Even Instructor Mei Lan did not know what to say anymore to cheer her three students'' gloomy mood.
Tang Li Xue did not like the current gloomy situation, so she quickly changed the topic of their conversation and asked: "Oh, right... Instructor Lan, did you manage to get the information about who hired the previous assassins to kill me?"
But Instructor Mei Lan''s expression became much more solemn instead.
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao, then said to them, "You two can go back home first. I still have something to discuss with Little Xue."
Instructor Mei Lan waved her hand signaling Tang Li Xue to follow her before she left the ssroom and headed back to her residence near the Education Department Building.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao felt doubtful at Instructor Mei Lan''s sudden serious expression. However, they still obediently said goodbye to Tang Li Xue and went back to Residential Building first.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue followed Instructor Mei Lan closely from behind after she bid farewell to Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao.
Yaya still sat quietly on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head since the ss started until now.
After they arrived at Instructor Mei Lan''s residence, Instructor Mei Lan let Tang Li Xue and Yaya in and served each of them a cup of tea.
Tang Li Xue could not hold herself and asked impatiently again: "Instructor Lan, did you already know who hired those assassins to kill me? Is it someone powerful that I cannot touch yet?"
Instructor Mei Lan leisurely sat on the opposite seat of Tang Li Xue, and she slowly took a sip of her tea.
Then Instructor Mei Lan stared at Tang Li Xue and replied: "No... The hirer is certainly a powerful person, and it might even be someone you know very well."
Instructor Mei Lan took out several sheets of paper from her space pouch and gave them to Tang Li Xue to read.
Tang Li Xue took those several sheets of paper in bewilderment and read the content written on them.
"This is the contract copy between Assassin Tower and the hirer. As you can see from the contract, the hirer is actually someone from Immortal Sword Sect." Instructor Mei Lan exined clearer to Tang Li Xue.
"Based on the abundant bounty reward of cultivation resources, high-rank martial art manuals, and high-rank cultivation technique, the one behind it should be someone who holds very high authority in Immortal Sword Sect, it might even have a much higher position than any ordinary elders." Instructor Mei Lan gave Tang Li Xue another obvious clue.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned pale in an instant and shouted reflexively in disbelief: "Impossible~!!! There is no way he would..."
"Why is it impossible? Little Xue, I never forbid you to have any rtionship with humans, but you should NEVER lose your logical thinking and only just rely on your heart." Instructor Mei Lan frowned in irritation and quickly interrupted Tang Li Xue''s words.
Instructor Mei Lan softened her tone and gave Tang Li Xue some suggestions again: "Little Xue, I know that you be quite close to that Elder Yang from Immortal Sword Sect in Tang Feng City before, but humans are despicable and scheming creatures. You should not trust them so easily!"
"But Elder Yang should have not wanted to kill you suddenly without a good reason. Can you recall or think of any good reasons why he suddenly wants to kill you now?" Instructor Mei Lan began to interrogate Tang Li Xue carefully.
Tang Li Xue''s mind was in a great mess.
The feeling of anger, sadness, disappointment, shock, and disbelief was mixed into one in her heart.
After hesitating for a while, Tang Li Xue started to talk again to Instructor Mei Lan: "Actually, he... already knew that I am not a human but a fox in human form. He tore off my hood and veil before and saw my fox ears and tail."
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply as she felt that this reason was not strong enough to hire those professional assassins from Assassin Tower to hunt Tang Li Xue.
"Anything else?" Instructor Mei Lan asked again with a suspicious tone.
"Then he also told me about..." Tang Li Xue almost blurted out Elder Yang''s secret about his true identity and purpose to join Immortal Sword Sect, but the scene before she parted with Elder Yang at Tang Feng City shed in her mind.
....
"All right. First, are you my Xiao Bai or not?"
"I... don''t know..."
"I know it! You must be my Xiao Bai!"
"Why are you telling me this secret?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a tone filled with suspicion.
Elder Yang replied with aforting tone: "As I said before, it is to make you feel more secure because I do not want you to worry all the time about me disclosing your secret. At least it will make you feel safer right now after I told you about my secret, right?"
Then Elder Yang kissed Tang Li Xue''s forehead gently before she disappear from Tang Feng City.
"Xiao Bai... I am looking forward to our next meeting. I hope we can spend more time together in our next meeting." Elder Yang''s gentle but lonely voice drifted away with his carriage.
.....
Tang Li Xue suddenly found that she could not say any more words about Elder Yang''s secret even to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan sighed in distress.
Instructor Mei Lan has excellent face-reading skills, and she could already guess many things just from Tang Li Xue''s expression.
Instructor Mei Lan knew that Tang Li Xue probably already found the reason why that Elder Yang wanted to kill her, but she was in a state of denial.
Instructor Mei Lan wanted to forbid Tang Li Xue to meet ormunicate again with Elder Yang in the future, but love and feeling were the most unpredictable things.
She was afraid Zuo Hongzhuang''s tragedy would repeat once again.
At that time, she along with Zuo Hongzhuang''s parents also rejected Zuo Hongzhuang''s rtionship with a human, but in the end, Zuo Hongzhuang ran away from home to marry that human.
No... Tang Li Xue''s case was probably much worse than Zuo Hongzhuang''s tragedy.
At least, Zuo Hongzhuang''s human husband truly loved her, while on the contrary, Elder Yang hired veteran assassins to kill Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression also turned extremely cold as she thought that Elder Yang was actually toying with Tang Li Xue''s feelings.
Tang Li Xue might be simpleminded, softhearted, and naive, but she was also the most talented student Instructor Mei Lan ever had.
In the end, Instructor Mei Lan could only put her trust in Tang Li Xue since this was her personal problem and only Tang Li Xue herself have the full right to decide what she would do next.
"Listen to me, Little Xue... No matter what you decide to doter, you must remember that you are no longer alone. There are me, Bingbing, and Silly Fox here that will apany you." Instructor Mei Lan tried tofort Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan wanted to say that even if Tang Li Xue decided to kill Elder Yangter, then she, Bingbing, and Hei Yinghao would definitely help her to do it with all of our strength, but that did not seem the appropriate thing to said in this situation, so she did not say it.
Tang Li Xue smiled sadly as her cold heart became warmer and said: "I know... Thank you very much, Instructor Lan."
"Yaaaa~!!! Yayayayaaaa~!!!" This time, even Yaya flew onto Tang Li Xue''s face and patted her chest, then hugged Tang Li Xue''s cheek.
It seems Yaya also wanted to say that she would surely also apany Tang Li Xue anytime too.
Tang Li Xue giggled as she gently kissed Yaya and muttered: "I know... I will apany Yaya too."
Even Instructor Mei Lan also chucked at Yaya''s cute reaction.
"Thank you, Instructor Mei Lan for the information." Tang Li Xue nodded politely at Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan patted her head and said: "Don''t worry about it. You are my student, so how could I keep quiet and ignore what happened to you."
Tang Li Xue held Yaya and stood up from her seat, then bid her farewell to Instructor Mei Lan.
Before Tang Li Xue left Instructor Mei Lan''s residence, Instructor Mei Lan kindly have her one more reminder: "Oh, right... You better not use ''that'' in Foxes Hunting Festival recklessly, especially in front of Qing Qiu''s foxes."
Tang Li Xue nodded solemnly at Instructor Mei Lan.
She instantly understood Instructor Mei Lan''s meaning, ''that'' in Instructor Mei Lan''s words meant her [Regalia of Desire].
Tang Li Xue absentmindedly headed back toward Residential Building.
There was seems two voices in her mind.
The first voice wanted her to believe that it was impossible for Elder Yang to hire those assassins to kill her.
While the second voice kept persuading that Elder Yang was only a despicable person.
''Elder Yang only told you about his made-up secret to let you believe in him and let your guard down at that time so you would not kill him to cover your secret!''
''You have already been deceived by him!''
''He held a grudge against you since you disguised as a pretty human girl to deceive him and y with his feeling!''
''So, he wanted to kill you so badly!''
''Why do you still want to protect him even now!''
When Tang Li Xue went back to Residential Building and entered her room, she held her head and screamed in annoyance: "Uaaaarghhhh~!!! Shut up... Shut the hell up~!!!"
"So what if he is the assassin''s hirer, so what if he is not?! I no longer care about that! From now on, Elder Yang will have nothing to do with me, Tang Li Xue! I am me, and he is him!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a firm tone.
"Tsk~!!! Handsome man will only affect the speed at which I level up my level~!" Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue while using her [Twin Moon] divine ability to summon out her perfect copy.
She instructed her perfect copy to keep practicing [Essense Devouring Technique] while she prepared herself to break through to Foundation Establishment Stage.
''What? Did you expect me to cry like a distressed heroine in the romance drama?! Dream on~!!! I already fight against deadly diseases for many years in my previous life without giving up until the end! A bit of heartache like this is nothing to me!'' Tang Li Xue thought disdainfully in her heart.
Chapter 510: Another White Lie!
Chapter 510: Another White Lie!
.....
After Tang Li Xue went home, Instructor Mei Lan sat alone in the living room of her residence while thinking deeply.
Just when she took her cup of tea and wanted to drink the tea, a woman''s cold sound echoed from behind her.
"Your scheming nature never changes. I am not really fond of that part of yours, Sister Lan."
"Sister Hongzhuang... Why did you eavesdrop on my conversation with Little Xue just now? Did you have no other things to do?" Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to turn her head. She calmly sipped her tea and asked with a t tone.
Yes, the one who lived inside this residence with Instructor Mei Lan was Zuo Hongzhuang.
Zuo Hongzhuang should have been punished by thew department, but thanks to the authority of Zuo Hongzhuang''s parents and Instructor Mei Lan''s parents, she was only sentenced not to leave Myriad Foxes Academy for 30 years.
But Zuo Hongzhuang was still too embarrassed to go back home and live together with her parents again.
In the end, Zuo Hongzhuang decided to only send her daughter back to live with her parents while she lived with Instructor Mei Lan here.
Zuo Hongzhuang did not answer Instructor Mei Lan''s question.
Zuo Hongzhuang took a cup of tea and sat beside Instructor Mei Lan while asking with a displeased tone: "Why did you lie to your little student?"
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and replied: "When did I lie to Little Xue? I only said the one behind it should be someone who holds very high authority in Immortal Sword Sect. I never said that Elder Yang is the one who did it from the very beginning."
Zuo Hongzhuang sneered and muttered in a mocking tone: "You are always like this. ying word games and mind games to confuse anyone''s mind. You also did the same thing to me too before! Sowed the seed of doubt and deceit! I almost broke up with my husband because of you back then! If it was not for..."
"I did it for your own good before! Even this time, I also did it for Little Xue''s good! If you listened to my suggestion before, you will not end up pathetically like this!" Instructor Mei Lan shouted angrily.
Instructor Mei Lan red coldly at Zuo Hongzhuang and uttered in a cold tone: "Listen! Do not interfere in Little Xue''s affair! I have no right to meddle in your love affair before, so I did not stop you when you elope with that human. But if you dare toy your hands in Little Xue''s affair this time... then I will never forgive you!"
Zuo Hongzhuang fell silent for a few minutes when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s cold words.
With Fox Race''s precise information and Instructor Mei Lan''s high intelligence, it was not hard to deduce that the true culprit who hired the assassins was actually Elder Yang''s fiance.
But Instructor Mei Lan did not tell her deduction to Tang Li Xue.
On the contrary, she used her deceptive words to cleverly steer Tang Li Xue''s mind to think that Elder Yang was the culprit instead.
The reason for Instructor Mei Lan to do that was also simple, it was because she did not like Tang Li Xue getting too close to any human, especially Elder Yang from Immortal Sword Sect.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan would not tantly say it to Tang Li Xue.
She already learned a lot from Zuo Hongzhuang''s previous affair.
Usually, the more you try to forbid someone to do something, the more that person wanted to do it.
So, rather than forbidding or forcing them not to do it, this kind of soft deception would work the best.
"Why do you need to go that far? Little Xue also has every right to determine her choice. You should just tell her the truth." Zuo Hongzhuang tried to persuade Instructor Mei Lan.
However, Instructor Mei Lan''s expression turned even colder as she replied: "I am her teacher, so I have the right to help her to determine the right choice. Little Xue is different from you. She is a genius. Her talent and potential are much higher than mine. So, I don''t want her to ruin her future by making the wrong choice like you."
"You should just think about the future of yourself and your daughter instead. Uncle Zuo is still chill and indifferent as usual, but Aunt Zuo seems to not like your daughter very much." Instructor Mei Lan said as she stood up and entered her bedroom.
Zuo Hongzhuang shook her head in disappointment and murmured sadly: "You are still too overprotective of your students as usual..."
Instructor Mei Lan might look gentle and easy to talk with, but if it was something involving her students, she usually became extremely stubborn and acted like a tigress protecting her cubs.
With Instructor Mei Lan''s sight, she could easily judge that Elder Yang was a one-in-thousand-years genius.
Right now, he might be only a small snake in the pond, but someday in the future, he would certainly enter the ocean and be a true dragon.
In short, Elder Yang would certainly be one of the strong pirs of the Human Race in the future.
Tang Li Xue was also a genius on par with Elder Yang or might be even better than him in Instructor Mei Lan''s opinion.
If Tang Li Xue did not die early, Instructor Mei Lan dared to guarantee that she would certainly be one of the fox race''s leaders in the future.
So, Tang Li Xue and Elder Yang were not destined to be together, since both of them were the future leader from the two opposite races!
Actually, Instructor Mei Lan already had a thought to kill Elder Yang before he matured and became a huge trouble for Beast Race in the future.
The reason why Instructor Mei Lan did not make any move to kill Elder Yang until now was because the heaven''s chosen like this Elder Yang usually has protection from the heaven itself.
Making rash moves to kill this kind of person would have the opposite effect instead. He would not die but grow stronger even faster. Moreover, there were always several Nascent Soul Stage Guardian Elders from Immortal Sword Sect that always secretly protected him.
Inside her bedroom, Instructor Mei Lan muttered with a cold expression: "But it is all right... I have also prepared a trump card to deal with him."
Instructor Mei Lan thought Hei Yinghao as her sound drifted with the wind: "No, he is not ready yet... He still needs more polishing before he canpete with that human."
.....
...
.
d|
Tang Li Xue entered her bedroom and jumped onto the top of her bed.
She folded her legs and sat on her soft bed in the lotus position, while Yaya sat on the pillow and patiently guard Tang Li Xue since Yaya was worried that an ident like before would happen again.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and muttered with a firm tone: "Let''s begin now~! System~!"
--------------------------------------------------------------
*Ding!
[Do you want toprehend Four Mythical Beast Art (White Tiger) with the cost of 210 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
--------------------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and muttered: "Thankfully, I still have more than 800 Deity Coins."
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and chose ''YES'' without any hesitation.
The system reduced 210 Deity Coins from her leaving only more than 600 Deity Coins, and theplete knowledge of the White Tiger part in [Four Mythical Beast Art] flooded into her mind.
Tang Li Xue instantlyprehended all of the White Tiger chapter parts as if the fog which covered another part of [Four Mythical Beast Art] in her mind had been cleared out.
Tang Li Xue poured out a small hill of spirit stones from her space pouch again like before and put them right in front of her.
"Sigh... My umted spirit stones are getting less and less. Umm, well... Although, I got most of them for free from Elder Yang''s spatial ring before." Tang Li Xue subconsciously said, but her mood became gloomy again when she recalled Elder Yang''s ''betrayal'' again.
"All right, that is enough! This is the time to break through to Foundation Establishment Stage, not the time to be sad!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she patted her cheek to cheer herself up.
--------------------------------------------------------------
*Ding!
[Your cultivation had reached the limit of the Acupuncture Opening Stage. Do you want to break through to Foundation Establishment Stage? Yes/No]
--------------------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes and started to run the White Tiger Chapter of [Four Mythical Beast Art] while saying in her mind: ''YES!''
Previously, the Crimson Phoenix chapter must be cultivated in a very hot ce full of fire and Yang elements, but Tang Li Xue skipped that requirement because she was assisted by her me of Pride.
The ck Tortoise chapter must be cultivated in a ce with so much water like in the middle of theke, ocean, or river, but Tang Li Xue skipped this requirement too because she has her own martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent], who helped her.
It was the same this time too...
The White Tiger chapter must be cultivated in a ce with a lot of wind like a ce near a storm or typhoon, but there was Yaya here to help Tang Li Xue, right? So, there was no need for Tang Li Xue to worry about this requirement too.
Thest chapter of the [Four Mythical Beast Art], Azure Dragon chapter, would be a bit difficult though since Tang Li Xue needs to cultivate in a ce with a lot of lightningter... But that was the problem when Tang Li Xue break through to Core Formation Stage in the future.
Chapter 511: Chapter 511: Substantial Improvement!
Chapter 511: Substantial Improvement!
"Yaya~! Let''s begin~!" Tang Li Xue nodded to Yaya as she ran the White Tiger Chapter of [Four Mythical Beast Art] more intensely to break through to the higher cultivation stage.
There would be no bottleneck barrier or any obstruction since Tang Li Xue has the help of her system, but she still needs a lot of wind energy right now to condense the White Tiger image in her Dantian.
Yaya nodded back at Tang Li Xue with a serious expression while raising her tiny hands toward Tang Li Xue and summoned out a small typhoon that covered Tang Li Xue''s slender figure.
[Hurricane Barrier]!
This was one of Yaya''s most powerful defense skills, but she was using it now to assist Tang Li Xue''s breakthrough.
The image of the ferocious White Tiger began to form above Tang Li Xue''s head as she was operating the White Tiger Chapter of [Four Mythical Beast Art] to absorb the surrounding wind energy.
RRROOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR~!!!
The image of the White Tiger started to be alive as it roared out loud toward the sky.
BBBWOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
The surrounding small typhoon and hurricane barrier began to swirl with Tang Li Xue as the center!
Even the surrounding air seems to be thinner as the image of the White Tiger became clearer and bigger!
In a few minutes, the giant figure of a white tigerpletely formed, and it roared again toward the sky as if announcing its rebirth to the world!
The wind outside Tang Li Xue''s house was blowing even harder and almost turned into a hurricane storm.
But this phenomenon was actually caused by Tang Li Xue that greedily absorb the surrounding wind energy with the help of Yaya.
A steady stream of spiritual energy from the surrounding spirit stones flowed into Tang Li Xue''s body to fill Tang Li Xue''s slender body and raised her cultivation level to the Foundation Establishment Stage.
The wind element spiritual energy poured into all of her meridians and umted inside her Dantian.
Previously, this umtion process might need a few days toplete, but with the help of Yaya and so many spirit stones, Tang Li Xue managed toplete it in only a few hours.
The surrounding air around Tang Li Xue''s house also became extremely thin.
Thankfully, there was no ordinary beast or mortal around here or they might have already been suffocated to death since a few hours ago.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s Dantian was divided into three areas right now!
d¦Á- |m
The first area was filled with mes of different colors such as crimson me, deep blue me, dark purple me, and golden me.
At the center of this me area, there was a [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] floating peacefully above, while The deep blue Phoenix of Pride was sleeping right below it.
The second area was the vast ocean area.
Both Tang Li Xue''s martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent], and a huge ck Tortoise were swimming around so freely and happily here.
While thest third area was a tall mountain that was always blown by the fierce wind.
Majestic and ferocious White Tiger lived in this area alone like a king of the mountain.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes and sighed in relief.
She quickly checked Little Yaya out of worry, but Little Yaya was already fast asleep because of exhaustion.
After making sure that Yaya was all right, Tang Li Xue started to curiously check her current cultivation level from her window status.
There were only two lines that were changed...
Cultivation Level: Rank 1 Foundation Establishment Stage
Cultivation Technique: Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art (Crimson Phoenix, ck Tortoise, White Tiger)
An extremely beautiful smile bloomed on Tang Li Xue''s stunning face, and she nodded her head in satisfaction.
"Yes, yes, yes... This is what I should really focus on doing right now~! This feeling of breaking through to a higher stage, leveling up, and getting stronger is really addictive~! As I expect, man will only affect the speed at which I level up and get stronger~!"Tang Li Xue spoke in a relieved tone as her mood became much better than before.
Tang Li Xue impatiently left her house and headed to the courtyard in front of her house.
Just like before when Tang Li Xue breakthrough using the Crimson Phoenix Chapter, and she got [Phoenix Fire Seed] which had already been swallowed by the Phoenix of Pride.
Or when she breakthrough using the ck Tortoise Chapter and got [Water Mirage].
This time, when Tang Li Xue breakthrough using the White Tiger Chapter, she also got another skill called [Tiger Roaring sh]!
Tang Li Xue''s courtyard was very messy right now because of the wind storm caused by her previous cultivation breakthrough.
But she did not care about that now since she really wanted to see how strong this [Tiger Roaring sh] was!
Tang Li Xue nced at a tall decoration boulder and decided to use it as her test target.
[Tiger Roaring sh]!
When Tang Li Xue executed the [Tiger Roaring sh], the deafening tiger roar echoed through this entire personal space.
RRROOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR~!!!
An obscure white tiger silhouette appeared behind Tang Li Xue as the terrifying oppressive aura exploded out.
Tang Li Xue''s palm formed into a w, then she waved it toward the tall decoration boulder.
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The tall decoration boulder exploded into dust before Tang Li Xue''s palm could even touch it!
Tang Li Xue stared nkly at her own palm as she sucked a deep breath in astonishment.
She really did not expect that this [Tiger Roaring sh] was so effective and powerful!
Of course, this [Tiger Roaring sh] was still not as powerful as her [Moon Shattering Strike], but these two skills have different roles and utilization.
[Moon Shattering Strike] was the defense pration strike. The concept was to focus all of the strength on the palm and made it explode the moment the palm touched the target.
While [Tiger Roaring sh] was more like Crowd Control damaging skill. Bypressing the spiritual energy to form the White Tiger image, it would let out an oppressive deafening roar to stun the surrounding enemies, and Tang Li Xue could use the intense vibration from the roar to destroy the target.
"I see... So, this [Tiger Roaring sh] is like a simplified version of Instructor Mei Lan''s divine abilities! So cool~!" Tang Li Xue eximed excitedly.
Not only this [Tiger Roaring sh] was a Crowd Control (CC) skill with a wide Area of Effect (AoE), but the destructive power of this skill was also very strong.
Tang Li Xue sighed again as she said in amazement: "As I expected from the martial arts obtained from the high-level cultivation technique, [Four Mythical Beasts Art]. All of them are so useful and powerful! I am really looking forward to the next martial arts from [Azure Dragon] Chapter."
Tang Li Xue entered her house again in a happy mood and prepared to do the next step.
Yes, the next step was to level up crazily by using the stacked effect of [2 Times EXP Cards] plus consuming the honey and royal jelly from Sapphire Armored Wasps!
Tang Li Xue sat cross-legged on her bed again and took out the six [2 Times EXP Cards] from her system storage, then she also took out the Green Gourd filled with royal jelly and a spatial ring filled with honey.
Tang Li Xue also called her perfect copy to help her consume this royal jelly and honeyter.
Of course, her perfect copy dly followed Tang Li Xue''s request since she also wanted to try the taste of these two rare cultivation resources, but her perfect copy suddenly asked something difficult: "If you use that six [2 Times EXP Cards] on yourself, will I also get its buff?"
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Tang Li Xue was stumped by her perfect copy''s question since she also never tried it before.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she also remembered that each time she stacked the effect of [2 Times EXP Cards], the buff duration would keep decreasing.
"The royal jelly should provide more EXP than honey. We still have quite many royal jelly, so it is better if we consume royal jelly first while the effect of [2 Times EXP Cards] still running." Tang Li Xue instructed her perfect copy as she started to activate the [2 Times EXP Cards].
When Tang Li Xue tapped the [2 Times EXP Cards] onto her chest...
*Ding!
[2 times EXP buff duration: 01:00:00]
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly poured the royal jelly from the Green Gourd onto a bottle and drank it.
[EXP gained!]
The perfect copy shook her head in disappointment while saying: "I did not get the buff."
Tang Li Xue quickly tapped four more [2 Times EXP Cards] onto her chest while she tapped the remaining one more [2 Times EXP Cards] onto her perfect copy.
2X¡ 4X... 8X¡ 16X¡ 32X¡
[32 times EXP buff duration: 00:30:00]
While her perfect copy only has 2 times EXP buff with one hour duration.
"Let''s go~! Quickly eat~! Eat as much as you can~!" Tang Li Xue urged her perfect copy as she greedily poured the royal jelly directly from the Green Gourd into her mouth.
[EXP gained!]
[EXP gained!]
.....
*Ding!
[Congrattion! You have achieved level 15! Stat Point +100, Skill Point +15]
[EXP gained!]
[EXP gained!]
[EXP gained!]
.....
*Ding!
[Congrattion! You have achieved level 16! Stat Point +100, Skill Point +15]
Tang Li Xue''s level kept soaring at breakneck speed.
It should have been a happy asion.
But for the first time, Tang Li Xue learned what it means to eat until you want to vomit but you must keep eating them.
The Sapphire Armored Wasp''s royal jelly might be extremely sweet and delicious as if they were melted in the mouth.
But the current Tang Li Xue ate too much of it until her stomach was bloated, but she kept forcefully stuffing the royal jelly into her mouth... that was the true indescribable suffering...
Chapter 512: Chapter 512: Sweat, Tears, and...
Chapter 512: Sweat, Tears, and...
After thirty minutes duration of 32 times EXP buff ended, Tang Li Xuey limply on her bed with a bloated stomach.
"Bleeechh~!!! I... I cannot eat anymore... Urggghhh, my stomach is so ufortable... I cannot hold it anymore... System, my EXP and level will not decrease if I puke out all of the royal jellies in my stomach, right?" Tang Li Xue asked with great difficulty.
[Host, do not need to worry. All of the essence from the royal jelly had already been extracted and converted into EXP to strengthen Host.]
[Even if Host vomits all of them out now, it will not affect Host EXP or level at all.]
"All right... That is good... Now, I can... rest easy..." Tang Li Xue muttered while having difficulty breathing.
Despite that, she still chose to hold back with all of her strength since she felt it was inappropriate for a wless and extremely beautiful girl like her to do something so embarrassing, like vomiting.
"Urrgghh... Then... Can I also stop drinking this royal jelly? I... I also cannot hold on anymore..." Perfect copy asked Tang Li Xue while holding her mouth, so she would not identally vomit out.
"The duration of your 2 times EXP buff is still 30 minutes remaining. Just vomit them all out on the toilet first and eat more again until the buff duration is run out!" Tang Li Xue told her perfect copy merciless instruction.
Anyway, it was not her who vomited but only her perfect clone, so it was all right...
"You... you are really a ruthless one... How could you... Urrrbbbhhh~!!!" The perfect copyined, but before she could scold Tang Li Xue... she hastily dashed toward the bathroom.
.....
...
.
After one hour, the fierce battle between Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy versus royal jelly finally ended.
It was a bloody battle filled with sweat, tears, and... vomit, but Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy finally managed to survive until the end.
This should be one of the hardest battles for Tang Li Xue after she reincarnated into this Immortal World.
Not even her divine abilities, skills, martial arts, Regalia, Little Yaya, Little Loki, Phoenix of Pride, and so on could help her to win this battle.
Tang Li Xue was still lying down on her bed, and she opened her system window to see her current level.
Tang Li Xue was too busy fighting against the royal jelly that she did not have any free time to see her system notification before.
"Fiuhh... Finally... It is over... and my level increased from level 14 to level 29 in one go! Muahahahaha... Urghhh... Ouch, my stomach..." Tang Li Xueughed excitedly as she jumped down from the bed, but she immediately grimaced in pain, then she quickly sat again on the bed while holding her bloated stomach.
From level 14 to level 29, Tang Li Xue jumped by the full 15 levels, so how could she not feel excited?!
It also means that she got 1500 stat points plus 225 skill points!
There was no meaning in keeping all of these points since Tang Li Xue needed more strength to survive in the Foxes Hunting Festival a few dayster, so she decided to use all of these points now!
Strength: 1,900 ---> 2,200
Agility:1,900 ---> 2,500
Toughness: 1,500 --->1,800
Spirit: 1,500 ---> 1,800
Tang Li Xue used all 1500 stat points in one go!
Since her agility has the highest effect thanks to her [Super Speed] passive divine ability, Tang Li Xue decided to put more stat points into it.
A Burst of stinging pain assaulted Tang Li Xue''s body and mind again, just like before.
Tang Li Xue curled on her bed while gnashing her pearl white teeth to withstand the tearing pain.
Tang Li Xue felt like her body and mind were forcefully torn apart, then put together again and again.
The unimaginable painsted for a few minutes.
After that, Tang Li Xue felt her body was much lighter and full of energy.
Tang Li Xue wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve whileining: "System, can you make me not feel this kind of unbearable pain anymore when I raise my stats in the future? I feel like I almost died again for the second time!"
[Of course, System can do it. Host only needs to pay 1,000 Deity Coins, and System will numb Host''s pain nerve, so Host will not feel any more pain in the strengthening process.]
[Does the host wants to turn on this feature, so System will automatically reduce 1,000 Deity Coins in the future strengthening process? Yes/No]
Tang Li Xue jumped as her blood pressure exploded, and she shouted angrily: "NO~!!! You bloodsucking system~! I must pay even for that kind of thing?! Moreover, it is 1000 Deity Coins?! This is clearly extortion!"
After venting her anger by scolding her system for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue calmed down again.
She sat on the bed and thought about what she must do next while muttering: "Sigh... Forget it... Now, I have to spend 580 Skill Points. Which kind of skill should I buy with it?"
Tang Li Xue opened the skill list in her system to see what to buy.
[Fire Elemental Resistance Up], [Water Elemental Resistance Up], [Wind Elemental Resistance Up], [Lightning Elemental Resistance Up], [Light Elemental Resistance Up], and [Darkness Elemental Resistance Up].
Seven elemental resistance skills in total, all priced at 10 Skill Points, so the total was 70 Skill Points.
Tang Li Xue was really tempted to buy them, but she decided to see the other skills first.
There were so many more new skills on the listpared to before after her System got upgraded. It even made Tang Li Xue dizzy.
[Deadly Envenom], [Telekinesis], [Spider Thread], [Demonic Curse], [Metal Skin], [Acid Blood], [Healing Tears], [Fire Breath]...
But of course, these better skills also cost a lot more Skill Points to buy. Their prices ranged from 50 to 200 Skill Points.
Tang Li Xue jumped down from the bed when she saw several divine abilities on the list!
"WOAAHHH~! There are even Divine Abilities for sale in the System now~?! So, I can also buy Divine Abilities using my Skill Points?! Awesome~!!!" Tang Li Xue eximed in amazement.
[Earth Prison]: 1,000 Skill Points
[Purifying Light]: 2,000 Skill Points
[Shadow Step]: 3,000 Skill Points
[Weaken Curse Aura]: 4,000 Skill Points
[Petrification Stare]:5,000 Skill Points

[Unmatched Power]: 10,000 Skill Points
[Unbreakable Defense]: 10,000 Skill Points
.....
Tang Li Xue: "....."
She could not even buy the cheapest Divine Ability!!!
"System, are you kidding me?! You put all of these extremely expensive Divine Abilities only to tease me, right? Since I can only look but cannot buy any of them, right?!" Tang Li Xue coldly said to her System.
[Please, Host do not need to worry. All prices given by the System are absolutely fair.]
[[For example, if Host bought both [Unmatched Power] and [Unbreakable Defense]ter. The effect of these two would stack with Host''s [Super Speed] divine ability, and the Host would get twelve times the effect from the Strength, Agility, and Toughness stats.]
"TWELVE TIMES?!" Tang Li Xue sucked a deep breath in shock.
[If Host activated all of the active effects from these three divine abilities: [Berserk Power], [Wings of Freedom], and [Immovable Mountain], Host would get seventeen times the effect from the Strength, Agility, and Toughness stats.]
"SEVENTEEN TIMES?!" Tang Li Xue shouted as her breath became heavier.
[That is right, and Host canbine the three of them into one to get a super powerful divine ability!]
"They can even bebined into one?! So amazing~!!!" Tang Li Xue shouted with an amazed expression.
Then Tang Li Xue thought for a moment andmented: "Wait a minute... System, do you really work as a sales now? You sound much more convincing than any Multi Level Marketing (MLM) Sales!"
Tang Li Xue decisively closed the list as she decided to umte more Skill Points to buy the ready-made Divine Abilities instead.
[Host can also use Skill Points to upgrade any current Skills and Divine Abilities now. But only [Mastered] level skills that could be upgraded to the higher grade.]
"Eh? I can also use Skill Points to upgrade my divine abilities now?" Tang Li Xue murmured in surprise as she quickly opened her status window and tried to upgrade one of her divine abilities.
[Divine Ability (Sun And Moon Aegis) can be evolved into a higher grade Divine Ability with the cost of 50,000 Skill Points. Do you want to evolve it now? Yes/No]
"50,000 Skill Points?! Why don''t you just rob it from the bank?! Errr... I mean, rob it from the System?!" Tang Li Xue sucked a deep breath and scolded while gnashing her pearl-white teeth.
[Thank you Host for your care, but it is impossible for anyone to rob the system.]
After Tang Li Xue calmed down her bad mood, she tried to upgrade her divine abilities one by one to find the lowest price among them.
Unsurprisingly, [Transfiguration: Human Form (Iplete)] was the cheapest one.
It only needs 250 Skill Points to upgrade.
But Tang Li Xue clearly would not use her precious Skill Points to upgrade this almost useless divine ability.
She could already guess that this iplete divine ability might evolve into theplete one, but so what if she could hide her fox ears and tail and look 100% like a human now?!
What Tang Li Xue really needed now was the divine ability that could make her stronger so she could survive or even dominate the iing Foxes Hunting Festival!
The second cheapest one was [All Knowing Eyes (Basic)]. The cost to upgrade it was 1,000 Skill Points.
This divine ability was extremely useful, and Tang Li Xue wanted to upgrade it so badly.
But unfortunately, Tang Li Xue could not afford it since she only has 580 Skill Points now.
The third cheapest upgrade price was one of the earliest divine abilities Tang Li Xue managed to get, [Ethereal Form].
This [Ethereal Form] was also the divine ability that Tang Li Xue used the most until now.
Unfortunately again, Tang Li Xue needs to spend 1,200 Skill Points to upgrade it, so Tang Li Xue also could not afford to upgrade it for now.
Tang Li Xue instantly fell into depression and sadness as she started toin again: "System, they are still so expensive! Can you give me a discount? How about a 99% discount as the first try upgrade?"
[Host does not need to worry. After the system upgrade, the Host reward forpleting the quest will increase several times from now on.]
[Not only Host can randomly trigger the quest by thinking about it, but System will also randomly give some quests from now on.]
[As long as Host diligentlypletes more quests and saves more Skill Points, Host could definitely upgrade or buy any divine abilities.]
Chapter 513: Final Preparation!
Tang Li Xue pouted when she read her System''s reply and said in displeased tone: "You are saying so much, but how is that different than telling me to work harder toplete more quests?"
However, Tang Li Xue at least got a piece of good news from her System''s bbering.
Her rewards forpleting the quest will increase by several times after the system upgrade...
"Not bad~! In short, System would get upgraded as long as I get stronger in the future, and the rewards I would get from the quest will also keep increasing, right?" Tang Li Xue asked for affirmation from her System.
[That is right.]
"One more thing I have wanted to ask since a long time ago. What will happen if I fail toplete the quest? Would I get punished for it?" This was the question that haunted Tang Li Xue since she got her system.
She was really afraid that her system would suddenly disappear after she failed toplete a quest someday.
[Nothing will happen other than Host will not get any reward.]
As if her System could read Tang Li Xue''s mind, it added a few more reassuring words.
[System''s only task is to nurture Host to be the strongest Deity. It will never force Host to do anything against your will, and it will also never do anything detrimental to Host.]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she heard her System''s answer.
Finally, she did not need to be afraid of any detrimental effect if she failed toplete any of her questster.
[Host can also choose to abort the epted quest anytime if Host feels the quest is too hard or impossible toplete.]
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise and eximed: "What?! I can also choose to abort it?! Why do you never say it before?!"
[Because Host never asked about it before.]
''Thank you very much for such a standard annoying answer...'' Tang Li Xue thought as she gnashed her pearl-white teeth in aggravation.
[Thank you for the praise, host. You are wee.]
Tang Li Xue: "....."
After taking a rest for half an hour or so, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy started to do their daily activities.
Her perfect copy began to practice [Essense Devouring Technique] while Tang Li Xue took out talisman papers and a few bottles of demonic beast blood from her space pouch.
She bought all of these on the way back to Residential Building yesterday, but she only has the spare time to make the talisman right now.
Tang Li Xue also took out the golden Inscription Pen from her system storage and started to focus on making several types of talismans.
Previously, Tang Li Xue could actually deal with those veteran assassins much easier if she still had some spare of her talismans.
So this time, Tang Li Xue had learned from the previous experience and decided to make more talismans as her emergency stock.
Tang Li Xue still did not know if she could use any of her weapons or talismans in the Foxes Hunting Festivalter, but having more talismans would not hurt since she could even use themter when she took another mission from the Mission Hall in the future.
Their time was already very tight, so Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy decided not to sleep today and focused on doing their own task until morning.
Even though Tang Li Xue still wanted to make some more talismans today, but she must attend Instructor Mei Lan''s ss first this morning, or who knows what kind of cruel punishment she would receiveter.
Tang Li Xue went to the bathroom while bringing Little Yaya, who had already woken up early, to take a quick bath with her.
Before she left her house, Tang Li Xue took a few bottles from her kitchen and filled all of them with the royal jelly and honey from Sapphire Armored Wasps.
She nned to give them to her Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan today.
Tang Li Xue also kept in her mind that she must also give this royal jelly to Little Yaya and Little Lokiter, so they could awaken their defense-type ability too.
As for Phoenix of Pride... Err... Could that mass of deep blue mes in the form of a big bird drink something like royal jelly or honey?
It should be impossible, right?
Not to mention its body has an extremely high temperature, so any kind of liquid like honey or royal jelly should be instantly evaporated when that dumb bird drinks them, right?
Tang Li Xue shook her head whileughing at her silly idea.
Giving drink to the me spirit... Which insane people could think this kind of out-of-box idea other than her?!
Tang Li Xue hastily pulled out her silver card from the tiny ck box behind the door, then the entire courtyard and house instantly turned into a closet-sized dark room.
When Tang Li Xue opened the door and went out of her room, she met with Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao, who wanted to knock on her door, but both of them quarreled instead about who will knock on the door first.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched as she thought in suspicion: ''These two can even quarrel about something as simple as that~?! Are they the incarnations of the gray cat and brown mouse from the cartoon?!''
But when Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao saw Tang Li Xue go out of her room, they stopped quarreling with each other then joking andughing with Tang Li Xue instead as if nothing happened just now.
It did not take long for the three of them to reach the Education Department Building and enter the ssroom where Instructor Mei Lan already waited for them.
When today''s lesson began, Instructor Mei Lan started to teach them how to hide well, how to erase their trace after the battles, how to track their enemy or prey, how to avoid being tracked by others, and so on.
All of these were necessary knowledge that they would really need in the future, even after they participated in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
After the lesson was almost over, Tang Li Xue raised her hand and asked a question: "Instructor Lan, have you ever participated in the Foxes Hunting Festival before?"
Instructor Mei Lan nodded with the usual gentle smile on her face and replied: "Yes, I have already participated three times before, so I cannot participate anymore now. Every fox can only participate in the Foxes Hunting Festival three times."
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in understanding and asked another question: "Since Instructor Lan already participated three times, could you give us a map of that Treasure Ind? Or... tell us some clues about where the most precious treasures would appear?"
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head this time and answered: "Treasure Ind would change every time it is held. All of the treasures would also appear in random locations."
Instructor Mei Lan warned her three students with a stern tone: "You three do not need to worry about those unnecessary things. No fox can get any information about Treasure Ind before the Fox Hunting Festival start, and no fox can do any cheating in the Foxes Hunting Festival. Only foxes with enough strength and abilities can get the benefit in Treasure Ind."
Instructor Mei Lan also added one more piece of advice: "You three must always remember to always in your fox formter. Since in human form, you can only use a third of your overall strength. The human form is only useful when you travel outside or enter human cities, but it will bepletely useless in the Foxes Hunting Festivalter."
Instructor Mei Lan was worried that Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao were too used to their human form, so they would forget to change back into their fox form during the Fox Hunting Festival.
Even if they decided to change from human form to fox formter in the battleter, it would be toote by then if they had already been in by their opponents first.
Since Tang Li Xue decided to stock up on some talismans yesterday, she decided to ask Instructor Mei Lan about it too: "Instructor Lan, can we use any weapons or talismans during the Fox Hunting Festival?"
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head again and replied: "You cannot bring any item into Treasure Land. Only your body will be teleported there."
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s answer.
As an inscriptionist, around a third of her strength depended on her talisman.
But this rule was actually a kind of protection for the grassroots foxes like them.
Imagine if those foxes from Central Continent bought advanced weapons and talismans from their ce to Treasure Ind... the foxes from the other continents or ces would certainly get obliterated by them easily!
Instructor Mei Lan smiled when she saw Tang Li Xue''s disappointed expression and added: "But it does not mean you cannot use any talisman there. Many foxes make their own talisman using tree bark and their own blood after they arrived there before."
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining like a pair of stars again when Instructor Mei Lan''s words gave her some inspiration.
Tang Li Xue did not ask any more questions after that, but Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao still asked some questions to Instructor Mei Lan.
Some of their questions did not even make sense, and Instructor Mei Lan scolded them as braindead instead.
After today''s lesson was over, Tang Li Xue took out several bottles of royal jelly and honey from her space pouch and distributed them to Bing Yi, Hei Yinghao, and Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue also told them where she got these royal jelly and honey from, along with the function of these royal jelly and honey.
"Instructor Lan, these royal jelly and honey should be ssified as high-level resources, right?" Tang Li Xue asked curiously.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded and corrected Tang Li Xue: "The honey should be a high-level resource. But this royal jelly is probably not... It should be included as a legendary-level resource!"
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao dropped their jaws in surprise.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes when they saw her three students'' disbelief expressions and said: "This royal jelly can 100% help us awaken defense-type divine ability! You should already know how precious divine ability is for any beast race!"
If Tang Li Xue knew that she had missed Mythical-Level resources, the Crystal Fruits on the top of the gigantic spiral World Tree, she would probably cry for several days in extreme regret.
Instructor Mei Lan notified them of another good news.
She actually gave her three students a few days off to prepare themselves and consume that royal jelly before the Foxes Hunting Festival began.
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao happily bid farewell to Instructor Mei Lan and went back to Residential Building together.
Tang Li Xue actually wanted to treat them to eat together at the luxurious restaurant on the first floor, but they seemed impatiently wanted to consume the royal jelly and awaken their defense-type divine ability, so Tang Li Xue could only eat together with Yaya.
After feeling full, Tang Li Xue brought Yaya back into her room and took out another bottle of royal jelly.
"Yaya~! Do you want to drink this royal jelly too? With this, you can also have one more defense skill~! You will be safer and stronger too when we fight together in Foxes Hunting Festivalter!" Tang Li Xue carefully coaxed Yaya.
Thankfully, Yaya was really an obedient child.
"Ya? Yayaya~!!!" After hearing Tang Li Xue''s words, Yaya dly uncorked the bottle and drank all of the royal jellies, then she quickly fell asleep to digest it.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to guard by Yaya''s side and wait until she woke up, but then Yaya still did not wake up until tomorrow.
Tang Li Xue panicked and took out themunication talisman from her space pouch and hastily called Instructor Mei Lan.
Who knew that Instructor Mei Lan scolded her instead since everyone would pass out for two or three days after they consumed legendary-level resources to awaken their divine ability...
Only then Tang Li Xue realized that she could absorb the royal jelly and awaken her defense-type divine ability so fast before because her system helped her.
"System, why do you never say anything about this before?!" Tang Li Xue angrily asked her system.
[Because Host never asked about it before.]
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Tang Li Xue decided to stop wasting her time and used her remaining time to train using her [Energy Maniption] with [Essense Devouring Technique].
Tang Li Xue did not even spend any of her time sleeping in these few days!
She also often sparred with her perfect copy to test her overall increased stats and divine abilitiesbination.
Tang Li Xue did not forget to daily check the condition of Little Loki and Yaya in these few days, but both of them were still asleep so tightly.
Finally, the time for the Foxes Hunting Festival to start hase!
Chapter 514: Foxes Hunting Festival... Start!
514 Chapter 514: Foxes Hunting Festival... Start!
Tang Li Xue stored the sleeping Yaya and Little Loki in her system''s pet storage before she went out of her room.
Today, the most awaited event, the Foxes Hunting Festival, would finally begin!
Tang Li Xue felt nervous but also excited because of it.
Instructor Mei Lan already called the three of them using Communication Talisman yesterday. She told the three of them toe to her house early today before the Foxes Hunting Festival started.
She knocked on the room door of Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao, so they could go together to Instructor Mei Lan''s house.
after waiting for one or two minutes, both Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao hastily went out of their room to meet with Tang Li Xue.
"Little Xue~!!! I miss you so much~!" When Bing Yi saw Tang Li Xue, she immediately shouted excitedly and hugged her.
Tang Li Xueughed as she replied yfully: "We just met a few days ago~! How could you miss me so soon?"
"A few days is very long! For my Little Xue, it is still far from enough, even if we meet every day! I want to tie my Little Xue, so you would always be on my side at all times!" Bing Yi uttered in an aggrieved tone as she put her head onto Tang Li Xue''s shoulder.
Hei Yinghao red enviously at Bing Yi, while Bing Yi nced provocatively at Hei Yinghao and put on a smug expression as if she was saying: ''You annoying third wheel, can you just go away alone and let me spend more time with my Little Xue!''
Hei Yinghao could not bear it anymore and decided to intercept them.
He pushed Bing Yi away from Tang Li Xue''s side and stuck closely in the middle of Bing Yi and Tang Li Xue, then spoke to Tang Li Xue with an excited smile on his face: "Little Xue, thank you very much for your royal jelly!"
"Don''t be polite like this. We are brother and sister under Instructor Lan, right? Sharing and caring are normal between brother, sister, and teacher." Tang Li Xue muttered while smiling beautifully.
Hei Yinghao was really moved as his eyes became teary, and he blurted with a solemn tone: " Xue~! You are really so kind to me~! No, I must pay you back no matter what! But I have nothing to pay you right now... How about I give my body to you? You can do whatever you want with my..."
Before he could finish his words, Bing Yi already kicked Hei Yinghao away in anger while scolding: "Who wants your useless smelly body?! You want to use such a cheap trick to deceive my Little Xue?! Dream on~!"
Both Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi started to quarrel again while Tang Li Xue was onlyughing at them "Did all of you three already bind your jade badge with your blood?" Instructor Mei Lan asked her
three students.
from the side.
Although they were always ying and joking around on the way, but it still did not take long for them to reach Instructor Mei Lan''s residence.
Hei Yinghao knocked on Instructor Mei Lan''s gate, and Instructor Mei Lan''s voice echoed from inside the residence: "You cane in now~!"
Tang Li Xue, Hei Yinghao, and Bing Yi stopped hesitating and entered the residence, but Instructor Mei Lan was already waiting for them in the living room.
"Did all of you three already bind your jade badge with your blood?" Instructor Mei Lan asked her three students.
Hei Yinghao and Bing Yi already bound their own jade badge with their blood, but Tang Li Xue has not done it yet.
So, Tang Li Xue hastily took out her jade badge from her space pouch and bit her finger, then dripped her blood onto the jade badge.
WWEEEEEENGGG~!!!
The jade badge in Tang Li Xue''s grasp was shining in a dim white light for a few moments before it calmed down again.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded and instructed her three students again: "You can sit now and put your jade badge on the table in front of you."
Tang Li Xue and the others followed Instructor Mei Lan''s words, then waited for the Foxes Hunting Festival to begin.
But their heart was getting more and more restless and nervous as time passed, so Tang Li Xue decided to ask some questions to Instructor Mei Lan instead.
"Instructor Lan, Yaya is still sleeping until now. Is she really okay?" Tang Li Xue asked with a worried tone.
After all, Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao also consumed the royal jelly, but they had already woken up yesterday and sessfully awakened their own respective defense-type divine ability.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled while replying: "Then it is good news for you. The longer she sleeps, the stronger the ability she will awakenter. It is not strange at all since Yaya is an elemental spirit. The ability she would awaken definitely be more powerful than us."
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation.
Tang Li Xue started to ask Hei Yinghao to use two of his divine abilities and copied both of them.
Hei Yinghao has five divine abilities in total...
[Blood Burst], [Blood Ignition], [Destruction Force], [Lightning of Destruction], and his new defense type divine ability, [Destruction Storm Field].
Tang Li Xue chose to copy his [Blood Burst] and [Blood Ignition].
Although [Destruction Force] and [Lightning of Destruction] were even more powerful, but even Hei Yinghao himself needed a lot of extra hell-level training from Instructor Mei Lan in order to control them well.
As for [Destruction Storm Field], even Hei Yinghao himself might not be able to control it that well yet.
If Tang Li Xue copied those three divine abilities, she would certainly not be able to wield them wellter, and she might even identally hurt herself.
But [Blood Burst] and [Blood Ignition] were different... Both of these divine abilities could forcefully increase the overall stats by several folds in a short duration of time, so they were extremely useful for battle or escape.
Meanwhile, Bing Yi has three divine abilities in total...
[Freezing Field], [Corrosive Frost], and her new defense type divine ability, [Ice Armored Titan].
Yes, [Ice Armored Titan] was actually a rare summoning type divine ability!
Bing Yi could even hide inside [Ice Armored Titan]''s body, so it also counts as a defensive type divine ability.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to copy Bing Yi''s [Ice Armored Titan] and tried to ride an ice Gunda... cough... an ice giant.
Unfortunately, the time was too tight, so she could only choose to copy more practical divine abilities to survive longer in the Foxes Hunting Festivalter.
One or two minutes after Tang Li Xue copied two of Hei Yinghao''s divine abilities, and they excitedly bragged about their new divine ability...
WWEEEEEENGGG~!!!
The three jade badges on the table were shining again while trembling violently.
Then there was a countdown written on the jade badge.
[10], [9], [8], [7],...
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently at the three of them and said: "Good luck to you all~! Be careful, and don''t be impatient!"
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xue with a serious expression and warned: "You better keep a low profile and never use your trump card carelessly! Especially in front of the genius foxes from Qing Qiu Fox Tribe!"
Tang Li Xue immediately understood that Instructor Mei Lan had warned her about [Regalia of Desire], so she nodded to Instructor Mei Lan with a solemn expression.
[3], [2], [1], [0]....
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao turned into white lights and entered their jade badge on the table, but their other items, such as their space pouch, clothes, and so on, were left behind.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes again.
She found that she was in the middle of the jungle, and she waspletely naked right now!
Recalling Instructor Mei Lan''s advice, Tang Li Xue hastily canceled her [Human Transfiguration] and turned back into her fox form.
Her three fox tails... or, to be exact, two silvery white tails like a pair of moons and one golden me tail like a morning sun were fluttering behind her.
The radius of her [Extrasensory Perception] increased by three times in an instant.
From her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue immediately sensed great danger, but she still did not know where it came from!
When Tang Li Xue turned around to run, a blinding light suddenly appeared in front of her sight.
"What the..." Tang Li Xue was extremely shocked, but it was already toote for her to do anything!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (2/3)]
Tang Li Xue was thrown off tens of meters away, but she was unharmed.
"Damn it~!!! Who dares to attack me just when I arrived here?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger.
Then Tang Li Xue immediately realized something horrible...
"Wait a minute... Does that mean I would already get eliminated just like that if [Sun And Moon Aegis] did not block that attack for me?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in astonishment and fear.
Tang Li Xue recalled that Instructor Mei Lan had already warned them before that she, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao would only be the prey for the strong genius foxes here, so they should quickly hide first.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs and felt extremely unwilling to let the one who had attacked her just now go.
But she still decided to follow Instructor Mei Lan''s warning.
She activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] and then quickly used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to run from there.
Your long awaited new arc is finally here~! \(>w<)/
Stay tuned and don''t forget to keep voting XD
Thank you very much for all your gifts, golden tickets, and votes! godadi
Chapter 515: Being Chased Again!
515 Chapter 515: Being Chased Again!
Tang Li Xue did not know that the fox who attacked her just now was also equally astonished.
This blue fox also arrived a few moments ago on the hill a hundred miles away from Tang Li Xue''s location.
Although all the foxes were sent to this Treasure Ind at the same time, but some foxes could instantly adapt and act properly like this blue fox, while the first-timer foxes like Tang Li Xue and the others needed more time to adapt.
This blue fox exploited this timing to quickly crouch while using its three tails to umte destructive energy and trying to find the nearby fox as its target.
Coincidentally, Tang Li Xue was the first fox to enter its scope-like vision, so it locked on Tang Li Xue and decided to finish her off in one shot.
But even after its lethal divine ability hit Tang Li Xue''s head precisely, Tang Li Xue was actually still unharmed!
"Impossible!!! How can that fox still be alive?! My [Extermination Ray] clearly hit its head!!!" The blue fox eximed in disbelief.
Its [Extermination Ray] divine ability was extremely powerful, and it always killed any enemy it met so far in one shot.
Tang Li Xue should be the first one who could survive unharmed from it!
"No, I must get out of here quickly before that foxe here!" The blue fox muttered in panic as it swiftly ran away from the hill.
However, when the blue fox just took a few steps back...
PPPUUUUUFFFF~!!!
A silver light shed down from the sky and split the blue fox''s head!
Strangely, there was no blood spilled. The body and head of the blue fox turned into a group of white light and disappeared.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy saw all of this scene from the top of a nearby tree with her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] activated.
Yes, Tang Li Xue might be run away as far as she could from this ce right now, but she still decided to use her [Twin Moons] to summon out her perfect copy and send her perfect copy to find the culprit who shot her head.
But just when her perfect copy wanted to make a move to test the strength of this blue fox... Someone else actually killed this blue fox first with one strike!
Yes, it was not Tang Li Xue or her perfect copy who killed this blue fox just now!
''What the hell is happening here?! Who dares to kill this queen''s prey?! I swear I will... err, praise you generously!'' The perfect copy angrily thought, but when she recalled that murderous silver light, she became a bit timid.
That silver light was flying very fast, beheaded the blue fox in an instant, and soaring again to the sky.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hesitated a bit, but she still decided to activate her [Super Speed]''s skill effect, [Wings of Freedom], and flew swiftly to chase after that silver light.
She wanted to see what kind of fox was using this powerful silver light to kill such a powerful blue fox in one move.
This was only Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy anyway, so she could unsummon her anytime if she faced any danger.
It did not take long for the perfect copy to find her target just by following the silver light.
It was actually a tailless blind white fox the size of an ox!
While the previous silver light was actually a silver sword!
After a few moments, another two silver swords wereing toward it.
The three silver swords blended with the blind white fox and became its three tails.
''Those three swords are actually that fox''s tails?! What a weird divine ability is that?!'' Tang Li Xe and her perfect copy thought in shock.
The perfect copy observed the blind white fox carefully and managed to find more details.
It was like its eyes seemed naturally blind since it was born, and its three tails were stained with a bit of blood.
It seems the previous blue fox was not its only victim!
Its three sword tails clearly harvested several other nearby foxes when this Foxes Hunting Festival had just started!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath while thinking: ''Is this the strength of the true predator?''
Then suddenly, one of the tails of that blind white fox turned again into a silver sword and...
BBAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
The silver light shed swiftly onto the perfect copy''s body before she could even react!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (2/3)]
The perfect copy was thrown off tens of meters and crashed hard onto several trees, but luckily, she was only get scratched.
Even her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] were automatically canceled because of the silver sword''s lethal attack!
''Damn it~! Why was that sword able to cut me when I was still in my [Ethereal Form]?!'' Perfect Copy gnashed her teeth in anger as she quickly stood up again.
But Tang Li Xue also got one piece of good news... The protection count of [Sun And Moon Aegis] between Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy was separated, so each of them could resist three deadly blows every day.
The silver sword turned around in the sky as if it could sense that the perfect copy was still alive, and it chased after her again!
Tang Li Xue hastily unsummoned her perfect copy, so her perfect copy suddenly disappeared from the previous location, and the silver sword lost its target.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue already ran away quite far away from the jungle area, but her [Extraordinary Perception] gave her many more warnings instead, as if there were extreme danger everywhere in every direction.
''Damn, what kind of hellish ce is this?! Chased by those veteran assassins was only child''s ypared to the danger of this ce!'' Tang Li Xueined in her mind.
Then she decided to call her system: ''System~! Give me a quest about this Foxes Hunting Festival now~!''
*Ding
-------------------------------------------------
[Quest: (Alice in Treasure Land) Survive the first phase of the cruel Foxes Hunting Festival!]
[Difficulty: Extremely Hard]
[Reward: Level +4 (+1), Stat Point +500 (+125), Skill Point +300 (+75), 3000 (+1000) Deity Coins]
[Additional Reward: ording to Host achievement in this first phase! If the Host chooses to only hide, then Host will not get any additional reward!]
-------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue frowned as she read the quest''s information and carefully thought: ''Survive the first phase, huh... ording to Instructor Lan, the first phase is where the stronger foxes will weed out the weaker foxes. Thus the true predator and prey would be clearly divided.''
''Moreover, the difficulty of this quest is actually Extremely Hard?! So, it means the difficulty is above Hard but still below Nightmare?'' Tang Li Xue silently concluded in her mind.
While Tang Li Xue busilymunicating with her system, one silver sword was already flying toward her from the sky!
Tang Li Xue immediately sensed it with her [Extraordinary Perception] andined: "How could that fox sword still track me when I already run this far?!"
But Tang Li Xue also sensed the familiar fluctuation from the approaching silver sword.
Yes, the silver sword was actually emitting [Spirit Perception]''s fluctuation!
''I see... So, each of the silver swords is acting as that fox''s eyes! This silver sword is actually not a normal sword, but the spirit sword! It can cut the target''s body and soul! That was the reason why it could cut my perfect copy while she was still in the [Ethereal Form] before!'' Tang Li Xue concluded Tang Li Xue could barely avoid its attacks every time by using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus 09:23
[Auto Correction] and [Extrasensory Perception].
in her mind.
The silver sword suddenly dived down swiftly toward Tang Li Xue like a guillotine!
"Sh*t!" Tang Li Xue cursed as she activated her [Super Speed]''s boosting effect, [Wings of Freedom], and used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
The grass and dirt flew away as the ground behind Tang Li Xue exploded!
The silver sword flew up once again after leaving a deep crater on the ground.
Tang Li Xue did not stop running, but this time, she soared into the sky with the [Fast Flight] buff effect!
The silver sword was still chasing after Tang Li Xue closely and attacked her again and again, but Tang Li Xue could barely avoid its attacks every time by using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Auto Correction] and [Extrasensory Perception].
"This is bad! If I cannot get rid of this persistent sword, the other two swords, and its owner wille to me soon!" Tang Li Xue muttered in agitation.
But it was already toote for Tang Li Xue to realize that because the other two silver swords were already flying toward her now.
Even the blind white fox was riding one of the two silver swords to chase after Tang Li Xue now!
''Since I cannot run away from this fox, then I can only fight to death against it!'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart as she urged the resting Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian to wake up.
However, before Tang Li Xue could enter [Perfect Assimtion] mode with the Phoenix of Pride...
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The blind white fox actually got hit by something invisible and crashed onto the ground!
''Eh? Someone is helping me?!'' Tang Li Xue looked around and found a red and white multicolored fox nearby on the top of the tree.
''Errr... I do not know that fox. It probably did not attack me because it could not see me. My [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] are still working after all.'' Tang Li Xue decided to take this chance to fly away quickly from here.
That was a close one!
Could Tang Li Xue reallyst until the end of the first phase?!
Stay tune to know XD

Chapter 516: The Might of the True Predator!
Unfortunately, one of the silver swords quickly blocked in front of Tang Li Xue again before Tang Li Xue could fly far!
"This annoying blind bast*rd~! You really think that I am just a weak, sick cat just because I do not intend to fight against you until now, right?! Then I will fulfill your wish now~! Let''s start, dumb bird~!" Tang Li Xue scolded as she called her Phoenix of Pride.
[Perfect Assimtion]!
In that instant, Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] was automatically canceled, and a beautiful silver fox d in deep blue me suddenly appeared in the sky.
However, the silver sword did not care about Tang Li Xue''s sudden transformation as it swiftly shed toward her mercilessly!
[Phoenix Cloak]!
BBAAAAAAANNNGGG~!!!
The silver sword was bounced off and spun tens of meters upward instead when it crashed onto Tang Li Xue''s [Phoenix Cloak].
Tang Li Xue turned around to face the blind white fox who already stood up again after it got struck by something invisible and fell down from the sky.
Tang Li Xuended on the ground, while the red and white multicolored fox also jumped down from the tree.
So, there were three foxes here vigntly facing each other.
Tang Li Xue, the blind white fox, and the red-white multicolored fox...
Tang Li Xue actually did not like this kind of situation very much since the fight between them would certainly attract the attention of the nearby foxes.
But she has no choice right now since the blind white fox seems to really hate her and wants to kill her so badly.
The blind white fox''s three silver swords shed once more; one was flying toward the red-white multicolored fox while the other two were flying toward Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was already prepared, and she used the divine ability that she had not used for a long time...
[Sun Dragon ws]!
Two deep blue [Sun Dragon ws] formed from Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride grabbed the two silver swords before they could attack Tang Li Xue and pinned them on the ground.
While Tang Li Xue herself already used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dash swiftly toward the blind white fox.
"I want to see what you can do without your three swords!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a cold tone.
Just when Tang Li Xue almost got close to the blind white fox, she actually got struck by something invisible!
BAAAAAAAANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s fox body was thrown back several meters, but she quickly somersaulted and stabilized herself.
Tang Li Xue resentfully red at the red-white multicolored fox who still busily blocked one of the silver swords and scolded: "Come on, you are its enemy too, aren''t you?! Why are you helping it instead?!"
"I want to attack that blind fox too! You are the one who is blocking my attack!" The red-white multicolored fox replied with a resentful tone.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes in annoyance, but she did not bother to argue with the red and white multicolored fox.
This was her first experience fighting in a three-way battle like this, and it was truly much more annoying than she thought, especially against the other two foxes that were not much weaker than herself.
Just when Tang Li Xue hesitated on who she should try to kill first, the blind white fox or the red-white multicolored fox...
At that moment, another surprise wasing toward them!
ROOOAAAAAAARRR~!!!
A ck monster''s mouth filled with sharp teeth suddenly jumped out from their own shadow and bit the three of them!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (1/3)]
CRUNCH~!!! CRUNCH~!!! CRUNCH~!!!
d¦Ás|
The ck monster''s mouth filled with sharp teeth crushed the red-white multicolored fox in one bite and gulped it down!
Tang Li Xue also got bitten, but her [Sun And Moon Aegis] resisted it for her, so she could quickly retreat out from the mouth of the ck monster using [Phoenix Cloak] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
The blind white fox reacted the fastest among them and dodged away swiftly, but the ck monster''s mouth still managed to tear one of its front limbs.
"Hiss... If I did not have the protection from [Sun And Moon Aegis], my fate would be the same as that red and white fox! What the hell are these disgusting things?" Tang Li Xue said with a tone filled with disgust as she grimaced slightly.
Then a ck fox as big as a chariot jumped out from the nearby tree shade.
"Grrrr~! Grrrr~!" Its red eyes growled loudly while staring greedily at Tang Li Xue and the blind white fox.
The three ck monster mouths filled with sharp teeth sunk again into the shadow and returned to the ck fox.
Those three ck monster mouths were actually the tails of this ck fox!
Watching the ck fox''s three tails open again while hissing like three worms'' mouths filled with sharp teeth made Tang Li Xue feel nauseous.
Different from the blind white fox, which gave her strong pressure as a powerful foe, this ck fox''s aura felt extremely creepy and disgusting.
"Jie Jie Jie Jie~!" The ck fox let out a very creepyugh as its three tails sank again into the shadow.
For the first time, Tang Li Xue encountered an enemy that she felt impossible to defeat and made her desperately want to run away.
Tang Li Xue''s mind was thinking fast, and she decided to use her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy in [Ethereal Form].
Tang Li Xue nned to let her perfect copy flee as far away as she could from here so Tang Li Xue herself could activate [Swap] skillter to exchange position with her perfect copy and escape easily from this disgusting ck fox.
But it seems that the ck fox already realized Tang Li Xue''s suspicious movement, and it certainly would not let Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy get away easily from here.
The three ck mouths filled with sharp teeth jumped out again from their shadow and attacked the three of them: Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, and the blind white fox!
The three of them already knew, so they could react much faster now!
Tang Li Xue controlled the pair of huge [Sun Dragon ws] to grab at the two ck mouths that targeting her and her perfect copy!
"GO NOW~!!! Leave them to me!" Tang Li Xue instructed her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not hesitate to activate [Wings of Freedom] and flew away quickly from there.
Meanwhile, the blind white fox used one of its silver swords to sh at the ck mouth that attacked it!
PPPUUUUFFFF~!!!
While the other two silver swords already flew toward the ck fox and mercilessly shed at the ck fox!
PPPUUUUFFFF~!!! PPPUUUUFFFF~!!!
The ck fox''s body was split into four parts because of the two silver swords'' attacks!
"Wha... That''s it?! That ck fox got killed just like that?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in astonishment.
However, her sharp [Extrasensory Perception] plus [urate Prediction] felt something was not right.
The creepy and disgusting feeling seems to get even stronger instead of disappearing!
Unfortunately, the blind white fox failed to sense it and used its three silver swords to frantically attack Tang Li Xue instead!
Tang Li Xue quickly used [Phoenix Cloak] again to block the attack from the three silver swords while scolding: "Stop it, you moron! That abomination fox is not dead yet!"
CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! PUUUFFF~!!!
One of the silver swords managed to prate Tang Li Xue''s [Phoenix Cloak] and grazed one of her legs.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger, but she did not n to attack back the blind white fox yet.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had predicted...
The two ck mouths filled with sharp teeth made their move and swallowed the three silver swords in one gulp!
The four body parts of the ck fox were wiggling as they started to bloat.
Those four body parts actually became four identical ck foxes!
Four ck foxes... and each of them has three tails that could be three disgusting ck mouths!
So now, twelve ck mouths filled with sharp teeth would attack them!
The four ck foxes squinted their red eyes and let out a disgustingugh: "Jie Jie Jie Jie~!"
The blind white fox hastily called its three silver swords back.
The three silver swords easily tore the tail mouth who swallowed them, and flew back to the blind white fox.
But the condition of the three silver swords looks bad, as if they were corroded by acid.
Tang Li Xue''s hunch felt even worse as it warned her even more loudly to run away quickly from this abomination fox.
Tang Li Xue could clearly sense that she stood no chance of winning against this kind of monster with an extremely strange set of divine abilities.
In that instant, Tang Li Xue decided to use the [Swap] skill and exchanged her location with her perfect copy!
''Just do it as usual, try to stall more time for me to retreat farther, and I will recall you backter!'' Tang Li Xue instructed her perfect copy from their mental connection.
This might be her only chance to retreat since the blind white fox was still alive and could make the ck fox busy for a while!
Meanwhile, the blind white fox started to lose its patience, so it controlled its three silver swords to rapidly attacks the four ck foxes!
SWOOOOOSH~!!! PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!!
The three silver swords shred the four ck foxes so quickly into countless small pieces in less than one second!
Even Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt that was not a really good decision as she contacted Tang Li Xue and asked: ''Uhh... Can you please just unsummon me right now? I feel something really bad will happen next...''
Chapter 517: Great Explosion!
Chapter 517: Great Explosion!
''What are you afraid of?! Nothing has happened yet! Just stay there for a few more minutes to observe the divine abilities of that ck fox and blind white fox! Who knows if we can find their weaknesster, and we can use it to defeat them!'' Tang Li Xue tried to encourage her perfect copy.
d¦Ás|
Her perfect copy did not even have spare time to reply as the remains of those four ck foxes were suddenly swelling bigger and bigger!
The blind white fox gritted its fangs and kept controlling its three silver swords to mercilessly cut the remains of the four ck foxes again and again!
Its three silver swords were also moving faster and faster; even Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could no longer see the three silver swords. She could only see three silver lights shing in the criss-cross pattern.
It was really too scary since Tang Li Xue herself could no longer avoid or block the relentless assault from the current three silver swords if they attacked her right now.
But despite all of those relentless three swords'' attacks, the remains of the ck fox still kept swelling instead!
The size of the ck fox''s remains was already swelling as big as a three-story building, and the extreme danger sensed by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy became even more apparent.
''Uhhh... I really think you should just...'' The perfect copy wanted toin to Tang Li Xue again, but before she could finish her words...
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Those remains of the ck fox actually exploded extremely violently!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (1/3)]
The perfect copy was thrown off tens of meters away until she crashed onto the nearby mountain.
Thanks to the [Sun And Moon Aegis] protection, she was only lightly wounded and bruised everywhere on her fox body; if not for that, she would already be turned into ashes by now.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could be sure that the blind white fox should already die under that great explosion since there was only a huge crater at the ce where they had fought just now.
"Damn it~! That abomination ck fox is truly insane! It even dares to do something like a suicide bomb to bring us down with it!" The perfect copy muttered angrily as she limply walked toward the ce where they fought before.
But then, her [Extraordinary Perception] sensed something in the air...
The burnt remains of the ck fox actually started to congregate together in the air!
"Holysh*t~! That abomination ck fox is still not dead yet!" The perfect copy eximed in surprise and disbelief.
''But it seems that ck fox still needs some time to form itself back to normal... What if you use [Swap] ande back here, then burn it with your me of Pride? You should be able to kill it, right?'' The perfect copy gave her suggestion to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and mercilessly threw several questions to her perfect copy:
''What if it swells and explodes again like before when I try to burn it with my me of Prideter?''
''So what if you managed to kill it? Do you even know if that was really its true actual body there?''
''What if its divine ability was something simr to our [Twin Moons], and its real body waited somewhere safe when its explosive clones fought against the other foxes under its control?''
''What if that crazy ck fox holds a grudge against us because we kill its explosive clones and send more of its explosive clones to hunt uster?''
The perfect copy: "....."
Tang Li Xue sighed and added: ''Our task right now is not to fight for the hegemony of true predators like the other foxes. We only need to survive this first phase intact.''
''Then... what should I do now? Should I wait for that ck fox to recover and stall for more time or retreat from here right now?'' The perfect copy asked in bewilderment.
Tang Li Xue thought for a few moments and decided to re-summon the perfect copy by her side.
There was nothing more to do there since Tang Li Xue was already fled quite far away, and the persistent blind white fox who kept chasing after her before had already died.
Of course, both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were still in the [Ethereal Form] now, and their [Art of Concealment] was also still covering up all of their traces and aura.
But running blindly like this was also clearly not a good decision...
There were too many powerful foes on this Treasure Ind, and Tang Li Xue would certainly bump into another one of them if she kept running blindly like this...
Tang Li Xue nned to quickly find Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao before, so they could fight together or protect each other easily.
However, Tang Li Xue quickly realized that her n was unrealistic for now, and there were several reasons for that.
First, Tang Li Xue found out that she could not fly too high on this Treasure Ind, only a few hundred meters at the highest, as if there were a prohibition covering the entire ind.
Second, Tang Li Xue also discovered when she flew that this Treasure Ind was actually very vast, like a continent!
Tang Li Xue finally knew why the true strongest fox king, the Apex Predator, would need many of its vassals to collect the precious treasures or cultivation resources for it in the second phase.
It was because the Apex Predator might be exhausted to death if it collected the precious treasures or cultivation resources one by one alone on this vast Treasure Ind.
After she found a quite safe zone in the jungle, Tang Li Xue decided to stop running blindly and hid in the hole of the giant tree to rest.
At least her [Extraordinary Perception] sensed that there were much fewer powerful foxes nearby here for now.
"Should we just hide quietly here until the first phase is over?" The perfect copy asked curiously.
Tang Li Xue shook her furry fox head and replied: "It is impossible for us to hide in one ce for a long time. The only way for us to survive is to rely on our [Extraordinary Perception] to avoid powerful foxes before we bump into them."
Yes, Tang Li Xue nned to run separately with her perfect copy while each of them would rely on their [Extraordinary Perception] to avoid facing powerful foes.
So, Tang Li Xue could also use [Swap] to switch positions with her perfect copy if she were to somehow identally run into a powerful opponent that she could not defeat or escape from it.
But before that, Tang Li Xue wanted to make some talismans first by using this tree bark and her own blood as the materials.
Her golden [Inscription Pen] was stored in her system storage, so unlike her space pouch or spatial ring, she could bring it with her to this Treasure Ind.
Unfortunately, no matter how good or perfect the n was, sometimes it could not keep up with the everchanging situation.
Before Tang Li Xue could even have enough time to rest or make some talismans¡
WWEEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
A pir of golden light suddenly appeared near the giant tree where Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were currently resting!
''Wha... What the hell is happening?! Are there any foxes attacking us?!" Tang Li Xue spoke as she put her battle stance.
"Nope, it does not seem so. But what is that pir of golden light?" The perfect copy muttered with a curious tone as she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] again and jumped onto the top of the giant tree to observe the pir of golden light.
"It is actually only a few hundred meters from us! Should we check what it is?" The perfect copy asked for Tang Li Xue''s opinion.
"No way~! I think I know what is happening! That golden pir of light should be the location where the precious treasure will be born! This is not good for us! We should quickly run away from here!" Tang Li Xue muttered in panic.
Tang Li Xue also hastily activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], then jumped down from the giant tree''s hole.
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy simultaneously used [Wings of Freedom] active skill to increase their speed even more as they quickly fled in two different directions.
But they were still one step toote since many foxes in that jungle area already noticed the pir of golden light and quickly headed toward it.
It only took a few minutes for Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy to bump against powerful foxes that could still sense them while their [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] were still activated.
Tang Li Xue was intercepted by a Purple Lightning Fox, while her perfect copy was attacked by a Green Fox with wood control type divine ability.
''This damn bloodthirsty foxes~! If you want to get that precious treasure, just go and get it now! Why the hell are you blocking and attacking me instead?!'' Tang Li Xue angrily thought while gnashing her fangs.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy did not realize that these foxes thought that both of them already got the precious treasure which was why the two of them ran away sneakily in the opposite direction.
Tang Li Xue did not want to fight with them for too long and attract more powerful opponents like before, so she decided to use one of her newly acquired abilities, [Tiger Roaring sh]!
Chapter 518: Incoming Extreme Danger!
518 Chapter 518: Iing Extreme Danger!
Several lightning bolts struck down, but Tang Li Xue dodged all of them using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] while moving in a zigzag pattern.
Because of the [Super Speed] plus [Wings of Freedom] effect, Tang Li Xue''s current speed was equal to ten times her Agility stat!
Her movement speed was so fast that her silver figure seemed to be flickering and teleporting to the right and left while leaving many afterimages!
Even the Purple Lightning Fox''s skills could not hit Tang Li Xue that easily.
After Tang Li Xue was close enough to the Purple Lightning Fox, only a few steps away from it...
But the Purple Lightning Fox sneered instead as if it was the one who baited Tang Li Xue to get close to it.
Just as the Purple Lightning Fox used its lightning domain divine ability to confine and finish off Tang Li Xue, Tang Li Xue''s [Tiger Roaring sh] exploded out as she used it along with the weapon skill of [Critical Strikers], [Final Strike]!
(Final Strike: Deal 3x damage, Critical Rate +20%, Attack Speed+ 30%. Cooldown: 1 hour.)
ROOOOOOAAAAAAAARRR~!!!
The image of the White Tiger behind Tang Li Xue became a lot bigger than usual!
The deafening roar from the [Tiger Roaring sh] became three times louder, and the destructive vibration force also became three times more powerful!
The Purple Lightning Fox was instantly stunned and felt extremely dizzy because of the deafening tiger roar, as if its mind was bashed with a huge hammer.
The destructive vibration force from the White Tiger''s ws tore the Purple Lightning Fox''s lightning domain andnded on the Purple Lightning Fox''s head!
PPPUUUUUFFFF~!!!
The Purple Lightning Fox''s body exploded into a group of white lights and disappeared.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] again, then continued to run away farther from the pir of golden light.
The fight looked simple and easy to win, but it was actually because Tang Li Xue used one of her trump cards, the [Final Strike], and it entered a one-hour cooldown, so Tang Li Xue would not be able to use it again in this one hour.
Without [Final Strike]''s power, Tang Li Xue''s [Tiger Roaring sh] would certainly not be able to stun the Purple Lightning Fox for a few moments.
It could only make the Purple Lightning Fox a bit dizzy at most, and the Purple Lightning Fox might even have a chance tounch a fatal counterattack on Tang Li Xue.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy faced a lot of trouble fighting against the Green Fox with wood control divine ability.
It was because they were currently in the middle of the dense jungle, so the Green Fox held a lot of advantage here.
Tang Li Xue did not want her perfect copy to waste so much of her time fighting against this Green Fox, so she quickly used [Twin Moons] twice to unsummon her perfect copy and recall her perfect copy to her side.
Then both of them started to run in two different directions again.
With this strategy, Tang Li Xue could avoid fighting against strong opponents since she could use [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy and repeat the previous ''unsummon and recall'' trick again.
Tang Li Xue already used this kind of trick many times before when she escaped from Mo Chonglin or from the veteran assassins, and it worked really well.
It also worked quite well right now until Tang Li Xue felt her body bump into something thin and invisible like a wire!
TWAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (0/3)]
Tang Li Xue''s furry fox body bounced back violently by several meters.
Even her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] were automatically canceled now.
Tang Li Xue quickly activated her basic [All Knowing Eyes] and found many invisible but extremely sharp thin wires stretched from one tree to another tree forming something like a barricade.
Unfortunately, her basic [All Knowing Eyes] could not see any information since she entered this Treasure Ind as if any information was covered by a thick mist.
There should be a prohibition put on this Treasure Ind to prevent any foxes from cheating by using eye techniques like her basic [All Knowing Eyes], wide searching techniques, and divining techniques.
"Damn it~! Who the hell put these dangerous things here?!" Tang Li Xue scolded while gnashing her fangs.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already stopped running as she carefully scanned her surrounding with the basic [All Knowing Eyes] and also found many invisible thin wires installed between the trees.
"Thankfully, I stop running on time. If I still recklessly continue to run, I might already bump into these dangerous wires too!" The perfect copy muttered as she sighed in relief.
But there was a big urgent problem they needed to face right now...
The real Tang Li Xue has used up all of her three times [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s protection!
It means Tang Li Xue would certainly get eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival if she got hit once more by a deadly blow!
Moreover, only a few hours had passed since the Foxes Hunting Festival started!
While [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s protection needs a 1-day cooldown before it can resist deadly blows three times again for Tang Li Xue.
While Tang Li Xue was in deep thought, her [Extrasensory Perception] suddenly sensed an extreme 07:41
dangering from above!
Even Tang Li Xue herself did not have any confidence that she could survive for 1 more day without the protection from the [Sun And Moon Aegis].
While Tang Li Xue was in deep thought, her [Extrasensory Perception] suddenly sensed an extreme dangering from above!
Tang Li Xue quickly used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to avoid it!
Just when Tang Li Xue''s furry silver figure shed toward the left side...
BBBAAAAAAAAAAANNGG~!!!
A huge gray fox covered with a thick carapace fell from above!
Tang Li Xue observed the huge gray fox carefully and muttered: "Tsk~! Another strange type of fox..."
The shape of this huge gray fox was really strange.
The three tails behind it were more like scorpion''s stingers.
While its entire body was covered by the thick gray carapace like an insect, and it also had many red eyes like a spider.
The previous invisible thin wires were probably this fox''s divine ability, and it could create something like spider webs... or maybe it should be called fox webs now.
"This is not good! If this insect fox can spurt out those extremely sharp thin wires like a spider spurt out its webs, then..." Tang Li Xue murmured with a solemn tone, but before she could finish her words...
The huge gray fox was already spewing the thin wires toward Tang Li Xue, and the speed was very fast!
Tang Li Xue quickly dodged using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], but the huge gray fox kept spewing its invisible thin wires until both Tang Li Xue and that gray fox were trapped inside the invisible thin wires.
"So, this is your way to trap your prey. But I do not want to y too long with you, so... goodbye!" Tang Li Xue yfully said to the gray fox as she used [Swap] to exchange position with her perfect copy and used ''unsummon and recall'' trick again.
Actually, Tang Li Xue still has many ways to deal with that huge gray fox, such as using her me of Pride to burn away all of its webs or using [Sun Dragon w] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] to beat the gray fox.
But that huge gray fox looked really sturdy and tanky, so Tang Li Xue was very sure that she would not be able to defeat it fast like the previous Purple Lightning Fox.
Then their battle would certainly attract more foxester, and she would need to fight in the three-way, four-way, or even five-way battle like before... just imagining it would give Tang Li Xue a headache.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy ran in two different directions again after activating their [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment].
''Sigh... I really need to upgrade my [Ethereal Form] quickly. This divine ability is getting more and more outdated.'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart.
Even her [Extrasensory Perception] needs to be upgraded too, since it sometimes failed to sense the trap and it was too slow to sense the iing danger.
''Sigh... So many things that need to be upgraded, but my Skill Points are too few...'' Tang Li Xue sighed in misery.
However, it seems Tang Li Xue''s luck has hit bottom without the luck blessing from her ring ne.
Before Tang Li Xue could run far, another misfortune actually fell onto her again!
Heavy rain was suddenly pouring down!
At first, Tang Li Xue did not think much about it, but her [Extrasensory Perception] actually gave her a warning of extreme danger!
"What the hell?! Extremely high danger? Is there something wrong with this rain? So, should I take shelter under a big tree?" Tang Li Xue muttered with a puzzled tone.
The area of this heavy rain was quite big since it even rained on her perfect copy, even though she was already several miles away from Tang Li Xue now.
So, Tang Li Xue also could not get away from this heavy rain at all, even if she used [Swap] skill to exchange position with her perfect copy this time!
-------------------------------------------
If any of you forgot, this was the effect of Tang Li Xue''s ring ne, which she got from Xiao Hei before but she could not bring it into the Fox Hunting Festival:
[Huang Family Heirloom Ring]
[Description: The treasure of Huang Family''s Head that was passed down from generation to generation.]
[Effect 1: Illusion Immunity (The wearer can feel it when they fall under the illusion effect, and they can break out from it anytime they want)]
[Effect 2: Luck +30]
[Effect 3: ???]
What kind of danger is hidden behind this heavy rain?
Stay tuned to know and don''t forget to keep voting using golden tickets or power stones XD
Thank you very much for all your gifts, golden tickets, and votes. (>w<) godadi
Chapter 519: Unforgiving Benevolent Rain!
Tang Li Xue''s [Wings of Freedom] effect had run out, but she kept running urgently without stopping.
The extreme danger warning from her [Extrasensory Perception] got stronger and stronger, reminding her to get out of this heavy rain''s radius.
Tang Li Xe felt extremely ufortable now.
It was as if a dagger was flying to her heart, but no matter how fast or far she tried to run away, the dagger kept getting closer to her heart instead.
"Wait a minute... Why the hell should I run from this damn rain?! Can I just evaporate them with my me of Pride?! Let''s try it~!" Tang Li Xue muttered in vexation as she entered the [Perfect Assimtion] with the deep blue Phoenix of Pride.
Her furry silver figure was shrouded by deep blue mes in that instant.
CRSSSSSSSHHH~!!!
When the water from heavy rain met with the deep blue me of Pride on Tang Li Xue''s body, it produced a loud sizzling sound and thick white water vapor.
However, something Tang Li Xue never imagined was actually happening!
Her deep blue me of Pride was slowly dimmed, and after a few dozen seconds, her deep blue me of Pride was actually got extinguished!
Her me of Pride has never been extinguished because of wind, water, ice, or anything before, but it actually got suppressed by this rainwater now!
The Phoenix of Pride seemspletely exhausted after it was drenched by this heavy rain with Tang Li Xue before, and it went asleep again in Tang Li Xue''s Dantian, under the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl], to recover itself.
Tang Li Xue''s expression changed to solemn as she finally understood the true horror of this heavy rain!
Tang Li Xue had no other choice than continue to run as quickly as she could to get out of this heavy rain.
''Damn it, hurry up~! Get out of here quickly! This abnormal rain must be created by a fox''s divine ability! This bast*rd wants to use the birth of the first treasure to get rid of most foxes in this jungle area at once!'' Tang Li Xue urged her perfect copy while exining her guess.
''I know~! But isn''t the area of this rain too big? Just how strong is the fox using this kind of rain divine ability?!'' The perfect copyined while groaning helplessly.
''Don''t think about it! Just think about how to get out of this situation as soon as possible! The dangerous feeling is getting heavier and heavier! The fox behind this will certainly make its move soon!'' Tang Li Xue scolded with a solemn expression.
.....
An aqua-blue fox observed the heavy rain from the top of the cliff near the jungle area.
The three tails of this aqua-blue fox were very strange. It looked like transparent liquid like water and flowy like a river.
An aqua-blue fox slowly opened its eyes as it murmured with azy tone: "It is time! Go clean those trash for me... [Benevolent Rain]!"
In that instant, the color of the rainwater slightly changed a bit to yellow, but no fox noticed this change yet.
Even Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy did not notice the color change.
Only their [Extrasensory Perception] gave a fatal warning to both of them!
"Sh*t! It finally begins! That bast*rd fox has started to make its move!" Tang Li Xue groaned in anger.
Tang Li Xue also made her first move by quickly using [Twin Moons] to unsummon her perfect copy.
Since both of them could not get out of the radius of this torrential rain in time, then Tang Li Xue decided to bear the danger alone.
Not because she was afraid that her perfect copy would die but because she could use the [Damage Transfer] skillter.
(Damage Transfer: The user will be able to transfer any damage she received to the perfect copy. If the user receives a sudden deadly blow, this skill will automatically activate and send lethal damage to the perfect copy.)
Yes, this [Damage Transfer] was Tang Li Xue''sst life-saving trump card. With this, she could transfer any damage she received from the rain to her perfect copyter!
Of course, Tang Li Xue also has [Substitute Doll] stored in her system now, but she still has not sure yet if this [Substitute Doll] would work first to save her life from danger or if the life-saving mechanism from the Foxes Hunting Festival would work first to kick her out of this Treasure Ind.
Anyway, Tang Li Xue did not intend to try it for now, maybeter if she really had no other choice anymore.
At this moment, Tang Li Xue suddenly felt her entire body hurt so much!
The surrounding bushes, grasses, and trees began to melt!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fang to withstand the extreme pain as her fox nose smelled the reek of blood from her own body.
But she still did not stop and kept running as fast as she could using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
-4679, -5368, -5931, -6124, -6829...
Her health bar kept decreasing rapidly under the power of heavy rain!
At the same time, the healing effect of her [Sun And Moon Aegis] and [High-Speed Regeneration] also began to work to cure all of her wounds.
+9999, - 7436, -8674, -9122, +9999, -9937, -10445, -11073...
Unfortunately, the power of heavy rain became stronger and stronger every second, so Tang Li Xue''s health bar was still decreasing at breakneck speed.
Even her body function kept deteriorating rapidly, and her running speed kept falling.
Tang Li Xue herself knew that she would notst long at this rate, so she quickly used her [Energy Maniption] to make a flying disc as an umbre to protect her from the heavy rain.
But the flying disc actually onlysted for a dozen seconds before it melted under the rainwater.
Tang Li Xue did not give up and continued to make another flying disc again and again as her umbre, but it drained her stamina and energy so rapidly.
BBOOOOOMMM~!!! BBOOOOOMMM~!!! BBOOOOOMMM~!!!
The surrounding big trees began to fall one by one, so Tang Li Xue could only slow down her running speed to avoid them.
As Tang Li Xue''s energy and stamina were almostpletely exhausted, she stopped using [Energy Maniption] and activated the [Sun And Moon Protection]!
(Sun And Moon Protection: Became invulnerable for 1,5 seconds.)
Tang Li Xue''s body was covered by dim white and golden light.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and increased her speed to the maximum in this 1,5 seconds.
Any obstacle in front of her forcefully crashed by her since she was invulnerable in these 1,5 seconds.
After 1,5 seconds were up, the heavy rain drenched Tang Li Xue''s body again.
Tang Li Xue could only use herst defense skill from her [Arcane Tunic] inner armor, [Arcane Barrier].
(Arcane Barrier: Create a spell shield that reduces the damage taken by half. Duration: 30 Seconds. Cooldown: 20 minutes.)
Although the damage taken from the heavy rain was already decreased by half in these 30 seconds, but it was still injuring Tang Li Xue''s body.
Her blood kept dripping onto the ground as she kept forcing herself to run farther and farther.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she never thought of giving up and only encouraged herself that she was only a little bit away from the boundary of heavy rain''s reach.
Even though some of her flesh and bones already melted, and her body started to fall apart, Tang Li Xue just kept running without any intention to stop!
*Ding!
[Detecting Host is in critical life-threatening condition. (Damage Transfer) skill automatically activated and transferred all of your injuries to the perfect copy!]
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (0/3)]
"What?! It can still be used like this?!" Tang Li Xue eximed as she was extremely shocked.
In that instant, Tang Li Xue''s body was restored to full health, and all of the wounds on her body vanished.
The [Damage Transfer] skill sent all of Tang Li Xue''s wounds to her perfect copy since Tang Li Xue''s life was in danger at that time, but [Sun And Moon Aegis] counted them as a deadly blow and nullified it for her perfect copy!
Even though it was good news for Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy, but unfortunately, it was not really that useful in this current dangerous situation.
The heavy rain quickly drenched Tang Li Xue''s body again and melting every inch of her body.
Tang Li Xue was really desperate this time!
She even already tried to control this rainwater with her [Water Control] from her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], but it waspletely a futile effort.
This heavy rain and rainwater were clearly under the control of that unknown fox, and its [Water Control] skill was far stronger than Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Winged Serpent].
Tang Li Xue decided to just summon out her [Golden Winged Serpent] this time, so it could help her resist the rainwater for her.
ROOOOOOOOOOAAAAAARRR~!!!
[Golden Winged Serpent] roared out loud as it spread its wings above Tang Li Xue.
The melting power contained in heavy rain got stronger and stronger.
Even Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Winged Serpent] probably could notst long, maybe only one or two minutes at best.
Tang Li Xue also urged her [Golden Winged Serpent] to use [Healing Bubble] on her, so she could at least recover her wounds in this one or two minutes.
But Tang Li Xue still did not stop sprinting with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] under the protection of her [Golden Winged Serpent].
Since this might be herst chance...
Tang Li Xue could not even think of any other n to stall for more time!
Chapter 520: Helplessness of the Weak!
With every passing second, the huge body of Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Winged Serpent] was corroded by the rainwater.
After thirty seconds or so, The wings of [Golden Winged Serpent] were already filled with holes, and it faced great difficulty in maintaining its flight with its huge heavy golden body.
After more than one minute had passed, none of the golden scales on the [Golden Winged Serpent] were still intact.
ROOOAAAAAARRRR~!!!
Its huge golden body and wings started to disintegrate into a group of white lights as it let out an angry deafening roar and crashed violently onto the ground.
The wounds on Tang Li Xue''s furry silver body were notpletely recovered yet, but the corrosive rainwater drenched her body once again.
"Really sorry, big guy~! I will repay back your meritter~! Err... How about I raise your levels by ten or soter?" Tang Li Xue tried to appease her [Golden Winged Serpent] in guilt as the [Golden Winged Serpent] turned into a white light and flew back into her Dantian to recover from its wounds.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs to withstand the pain as the rainwater started to corrode her silver furs, skin, and bones.
Her blood kept dripping onto the ground when she kept running as fast as she could using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
The surrounding grasses, bushes, and trees were already gone since a few moments ago.
The previous dense green jungle has be a barrennd.
An urge to give up and relieve herself from the pain appeared in Tang Li Xue''s heart, but she quickly shook her head to wipe that thought.
''Calm down, Tang Li Xue! It is still too early to give up right now! I still have one more life from the [Damage Transfer] skill.'' Tang Li Xue''s mind tried to encourage herself.
However, Tang Li Xue actually did not n to use thisst life-saving skill until thest moment because she was alreadypletely exhausted right now.
Even if she used [Damage Transfer] and transferred all of her wounds to her perfect copy to save herself, she would certainly faint sooner orter in exhaustion.
At that time, who would protect her when she passed out if not her perfect copy?!
Just when Tang Li Xue''s running speed was falling until she could no longer use [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], she finally saw a shade of the standing tree several hundred meters from her.
''Is that a tree?! That tree has not fallen yet, so it was not corroded by this damn heavy rain! So, it means that the tree is already out of this heavy rain''s radius! Hurry up~! It is not that far anymore!'' Tang Li Xue thought as her topaz blue eyes shone brighter, although her eyes were already almost blinded by the corrosive rainwater right now.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs one more as she forced herself to increase her running speed again.
''This is bad! I will not make it out at this rate!'' Tang Li Xue''s mind was thinking of a way out fast.
''Damn it~! There is no other way, then... [Shadow sh]!'' Tang Li Xue used herst equipment skill.
(Shadow sh: Teleport to any shadow up to 100 meters away in an instant. Cooldown: 10 minutes.)
Tang Li Xue used [Shadow sh], and her target was the shadow under that tree!
When Tang Li Xue instantly teleported into the shadow under that tree, there was no more rain falling from the sky on this location.
Tang Li Xue fell weakly onto the ground as her blood flowed onto the grassy ground under the tree.
Tang Li Xue was extremely exhausted, both mentally and physically.
Her consciousness was fading away, but she still used herst ounce of strength to use [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy.
''I will leave the rest to you...'' Tang Li Xue whispered to her perfect copy, then shepletely passed out.
"Sigh... I know what to do. You can just take a rest in peace." The perfect copy replied while patting Tang Li Xue''s bloody body.
If Tang Li Xue was still conscious right now, she would certainly p her perfect copy''s head and scold her by saying: "What do you mean by that?! I am not dead yet!"
Perfect copy''s [Extrasensory Perception] sensed something flying in the sky above her, so she stared upward at the sky.
Then she saw a clear river of water flying in the sky, and there was an aqua-blue fox riding on the top of that clear river of water as if it was surfing on the water wave.
"Tsk~! So, this is the fox who makes that heavy rain! This bast*rd is really pissing me off!" The perfect copy whispered softly with an angry tone.
Despite her anger, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy knew that it was not wise to provoke such a powerful fox for now, especially since the real Tang Li Xue was still extremely exhausted and fainted now.
It was only the first day, but Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were beaten up again and again.
They were forced to learn which one is the real predator and which one is the prey in hard way!
Luckily, the aqua-blue fox did not even bother to pay any attention to any small prey on the side of the road like Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy.
If not, Tang Li Xue might be really got eliminated on the first day of this Foxes Hunting Festival.
"That previous abomination ck fox... and also this blue fox... These damn predator foxes... Someday, I will certainly make them pay it back with interest! Humph~!" The perfect copy angrily said to vent her anger.
"Sigh... The most important thing to do right now is to bring this baggage to a hidden safe ce. So, we can recuperate safely, at least until tomorrow." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered as she gently wrapped her three tails onto Tang Li Xue''s body and put her on the back.
When the perfect copy was pondering carefully which direction to go...
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Something huge suddenly jumped out from below the ground under Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
Fortunately, the perfect copy''s [Extrasensory Perception] sensed it one second earlier and quickly jumped to the right side to avoid it.
The perfect copy quickly observed who attacked her just now and found out that it was actually the previous huge gray fox!
"This damn insect fox is still alive?! How could it be?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in shock.
But the perfect copy quickly realized it since this strange fox came out from underground, then it must be avoiding the corrosive heavy rain by traveling underground.
What made the perfect copy feel strange was that this strange insect fox could actually catch up with Tang Li Xue''s speed while traveling underground!
Well... Although Tang Li Xue''s speed had decreased a lot before to avoid the falling trees and because her wounds slowed her down, but under the [Super Speed]''s effect, Tang Li Xue''s speed should still be quite high!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not want to waste her time fighting this strange insect fox while she also should bring and protect the unconscious Tang Li Xue around, so she instantly decided to run away quickly!
However, the strange insect fox clearly did not want to let go of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy that easily!
It was spurting out its invisible thin webs again and hastily covered the entire area with her webs!
The perfect copy easily avoided the invisible thin webs spurted out on her, but she was not fast enough to get out from the web nest made by the strange insect fox!
So, the perfect copy was trapped inside the web nest with the unconscious Tang Li Xue on her back!
"Gegegege~!" The strange insect foxughed excitedly as it slowly approached Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy.
The perfect copy shuddered slightly when she heard the strange insect fox''sugh, and its many red eyes stared at her.
"You damn ugly fox! Why do you always want to target me?! Do you have a grudge against me?!" The perfect copy angrily shouted to the strange insect fox.
"Gegegege~! Because you are an extremely beautiful fox! Your figure, your color, your fur, and your eyes... everything is perfect! I love every beautiful thing! Yes... I love destroying all of the beautiful things! Gehahahahaha~!" The strange insect fox replied as itughed even more maniacally.
The perfect copy grimaced slightly as she muttered: "Sh*t! All of the fox elders in this fox''s ce must be crazy. How could they let such a fox with mental illness participate in a grand event like this Foxes Hunting Festival?!"
The strange insect fox did not bother to speak with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy anymore.
One of its three stinger tails suddenly stabbed toward the perfect copy!
The perfect copy swiftly used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and shed to the right side.
BAAAANGGG~!!!
The strange insect fox''s stinger tail only struck the ground. Not only was its stinger tail embedded deeply into the ground, but even the ground and grasses also quickly turned ck.
Its three stinger tails were extremely poisonous!
The perfect copy raised her vignt higher as she carefully kept on track of the three stinger tails because she did not only need to protect herself from those three stinger tails but also the unconscious Tang Li Xue.
''This damn ugly fox could clearly ensnare me with its invisible webs and kill me quickly, but it decided to y around instead!'' The perfect copy thought angrily.
Inside this web nest, the perfect copy clearly could not avoid anymore if the strange insect fox kept spurting out its invisible webs, but it decided to use to attack her with its stinger tails instead.
Even Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not believe this strange insect fox was so stupid that it could not think about something as easy as that.
Chapter 521: The Perfect Counterattack!
The strange insect fox kept attacking Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rapidly with its three stinger tails, and its attacking speed was getting faster and faster!
PUUUFFF~!!! PUUUFFF~!!!
The perfect copy tried her best to dodge the strange gray fox''s rapid poisonous stinger attacks, but her movement was greatly restricted in this narrow space inside the web nest, so some of its attacks still managed to graze her tail and leg.
The perfect copy''s wounds instantly turned ck under the effect of the lethal poison from the strange gray fox''s stinger.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy might not have [Imperial Moon Fox] or [Pure Sun Dragon] like the real Tang Li Xue to help her nullify the lethal poison, but one of the [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s effects saved her from this dangerous problem.
[Sun And Moon Aegis 6th effect: Purify any debuff, poison, or curse every 5 seconds.]
The wounds of the perfect copy turned from ck to the usual crimson blood color after five seconds.
Then the woundspletely healed under the recovery of [High-Speed Regeneration].
The strange gray fox did not lose its patience when it saw Tang Li Xue''s perfect copypletely recovered in only a few breaths.
On the contrary, the strange gray fox felt even more excited, as if it had found a more durable toy so it could y longer with that toy.
Meanwhile, the perfect copy started to think of a n to get out of this situation calmly with a solemn expression while kept dodging the strange gray fox''s rapid stinger attacks.
Although the strange gray fox''s stinger attacks were not effective at all against her right now, but her stamina and energy were limited.
Every time she got wounded and triggered the effect of [High-Speed Regeneration] and [Sun And Moon Aegis], it would consume some of her stamina and energy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy would certainly getpletely exhausted sooner orter at this rate!
"Fiuhhh... It seems I must take a risk now before I getpletely exhausted too! All right, here goes nothing~!" The perfect copy muttered as her topaz blue eyes red at the grinning strange gray fox.
When the strange gray fox''s stinger tails came toward her again, the perfect copy suddenly disappeared!
She used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] again!
However, she did not use it to dodge the iing attacks this time, but to get close to the strange gray fox!
"Any normal attack or fast attack like [Moonlight sh] may not work against your bulky armored body, but how about this~! [Moon Shattering Strike]!" The perfect copy shouted as she swung one of her tails toward the strange gray fox''s huge body.
The perfect copy''s tail struck the abdomen of the strange gray fox heavily!
BBAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
The strange gray fox only took a few steps back, but the strength of [Moon Shattering Strike] did not lie in its frontal striking power!
[Moon Shattering Strike] was a defense prating strike that injected thepression of destructive energy into the target''s body and made it explode at once from the inside out.
The strange gray fox coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood in disbelief.
Even though the perfect copy''s blow did not look that powerful, but some of the strange gray fox''s internal organs were probably already shattered to pieces under the power of her [Moon Shattering Strike].
When the strange gray fox stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in disbelief, she smugly said: "Brat, what do you looking at?! Do you want more of that? Then I will give you one more as you wish! Eat this!"
The perfect copy''s silver furry figure disappeared once more from the strange gray fox''s eyes as she used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to get close to it again.
This time, the perfect copy struck the strange gray fox''s abdomen from the other side with her head!
[Moon Shattering Strike]!
BBAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
The strange gray fox could not dodge in time, so it could only receive another [Moon Shattering Strike] from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
The strange gray fox staggered back and almost fell embarrassingly onto the ground!
But it quickly hooked its stinger tails to the invisible thin webs to stabilize itself.
The strange gray fox''s expression turned ugly in anger and embarrassment.
The strange gray fox never imagined that a weakling, which it had treated as a toy before, could actually hurt it this badly.
GROOOOOAAAAAAARRRRR~!!!
The strange gray fox roared angrily at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, then it began to spurt out the invisible thin webs toward her!
In this narrow web nest, the perfect copy could not avoid the invisible thin webs for long, so it did not take long for her to get ensnared by the invisible thin webs.
The entire furry silver body of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy was covered by the invisible thin webs, except their head.
"Gegegege~!" The strange gray foxughed mockingly at the ensnared perfect copy.
Strangely, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not look nervous or afraid at all.
The perfect copy also sneered back and spoke with a cold tone: "Why are you alreadyughing so happily? Do you really think that you already win?"
The strange gray fox''s expression also turned cold as it let out an intense murderous intent.
It seems the strange gray fox did not want to y with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy anymore.
The strange gray fox pounced toward Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy while opening its bloody mouth filled with sharp teeth.
It was clear that the strange gray fox wanted to tear Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy with its sharp fangs!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still smiling as she asked in a calm tone: "Oh, right... By the way, are you really sure that all of these webs around us are really yours?"
Suddenly, the surrounding thin webs were flying swiftly and tying the strange gray fox''s huge armored body!
Of course, these thin webs were not the strange gray fox''s webs.
These were actually the thin webs created by the perfect copy from her [Energy Maniption] and secretly blended them with the surrounding web nest!
The perfect copy stealthily did that before while dodging the strange gray fox''s stinger tail rapid attacks!
Without waiting for the strange gray fox to struggle to free itself from the binding webs, the perfect copy quickly used the skill that she diligently practiced in the few days before the Fox Hunting Festival started.
[Essence Devouring Technique]!
Countless thin webs that bound the strange gray fox began to drain the strange gray fox''s stamina and energy rapidly!
ROOOOOAAAAAAARRRRR~!!!
The strange gray fox roared angrily as it started to use its entire strength and struggle violently to get out from the thin webs'' binding!
The perfect copy''s thin webs could not withstand the strange gray fox''s great strength and began to snap one by one!
"It is useless! It is already toote for you to regret looking down on us!" The perfect copy muttered coldly as she urged her [Energy Maniption] to create many more webs to bind the strange gray fox''s huge body.
Meanwhile, her [Essence Devouring Technique] kept devouring the strange gray fox''s stamina and energy rapidly!
In the perfect copy''s eyes, the result of this battle was already determined the moment when the strange gray fox failed to notice her thin webs created from [Energy Maniption] mixed with the surrounding webs.
Continuously creating webs with her [Energy Maniption] might be exhausting, but the energy devoured from the strange gray fox could quickly cover it up.
The process was almost the same as using the energy from the strange gray fox to bind itself!
Just when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought that the strange gray fox would be exhausted to death by her [Essence Devouring Technique]...
The strange gray fox suddenly did something unexpected!
"Cancel the [Spider Scorpion Transformation]!" The strange gray fox shouted at that moment.
The strange gray fox instantly shrunk into the size of a German Shepherd dog, so the perfect copy''s webs could not bind it anymore.
Unlike before, the current gray fox looks like a normal fox, except it has three tails behind it.
"Woah~! You can transform into another fox form?! Is that your divine ability?" The perfect copy eximed in surprise.
"Yes, this is my divine ability. I am no longer tied, but you are still tied. So, is this my win?" The gray fox replied with a cold tone filled with murderous intent.
"Uh, well... Not really... What did you call your ability just now? Oh, right... [Spider Scorpion Transformation] activated!" The perfect copy calmly answered as she used the [Spider Scorpion Transformation]!
Yes, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used her [Mirror of the Moon] to copy the gray fox''s [Spider Scorpion Transformation] when she canceled it just now!
[Mirror of the Moon] activated!
[Copy Start]!
Name: [Spider Scorpion Transformation]
Type: Divine Ability
[Copy Completed]!
The perfect copy''s body suddenly swelled and was covered with a thick silver carapace!
All the thin webs covering her body were broken in that instant!
The current perfect copy''s body was identical to the previous gray fox, except for the color!
Her entire body was covered by the thick silvery white carapace like an insect, and it also had many topaz blue eyes like a spider.
She also has three poisonous stinger tails behind her!
The gray fox dropped its jaw in shock and disbelief when it saw the perfect copy''s transformation.
"Yuck~! What the hell is this form?! It is SOOO UGLY~! But, oh well... I will bear with it at least until I defeat you. Come on, brat~! Use your transformation again! I want to see which one of us is stronger! Your spider scorpion or my spider scorpion?!" The perfect copy said to the gray fox in a smug tone.
Chapter 522: Perfect Hiding Place!
Chapter 522: Perfect Hiding ce!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was actually not smug or overconfident at all.
In fact, she was deliberately acting like that to provoke the gray fox, so it would forget the unconscious Tang Li Xue.
The angrier the gray fox at her, the more it would focus on killing the perfect copy and ignoring the real Tang Li Xue.
For the perfect copy, the worst situation was the gray fox realized that she was only a clone and focused on attacking the unconscious Tang Li Xue instead.
If the gray fox somehownded a deadly blow toward the unconscious Tang Li Xue, her [Damage Transfer] skill would instantly get triggered, and she, as Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, would get killed instead as her recement.
If she died, it would take nine nights for her to get resurrected or for the [Twin Moons] to finish the cooldown... Well... In short, Tang Li Xue would certainly already got eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival by then.
As the perfect copy already predicted, the gray fox''s face turned red in anger while growling at the perfect copy.
It activated its [Spider Scorpion Transformation] again and changed back into its bulky insect-like form!
The huge gray fox spurted out a lot of thin webs from its mouth toward the perfect copy while charging toward it!
The perfect copy was not flustered. She also spurted out a lot of thin webs from her mouth to counter the huge gray fox.
Their thin webs hit each other, but those thin webs still could not stop both of their movement until they crashed into each other violently.
BBBAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
The huge gray fox took a dozen steps back. It staggered and felt a bit dizzy, while Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only took a half step back.
Thanks to the incredible effect of passive divine abilities such as: [Super Speed] and [Sun And Moon Aegis], the perfect copy held so much advantage against the huge gray fox under the same form!
The perfect copy immediately realized that the true power of [Mirror of Moon] could only be fully utilized if her overall stats were above her opponent.
Imagine if you and your opponent had the same ability, but your opponent could only deal 1 damage to you while you could deal 10 damage to it.
Yes, this was the true might of the [Mirror of Moon]!
As long as Tang Li Xue has higher overall stats or strength than her opponents, there would be almost no way for her opponent to counter her [Mirror of Moon].
Because any ability copied by [Mirror of Moon] would be re-adjusted ording to the user''s strength or stats!
Of course, something like divine abilities with extremely high difficulty to control or divine abilities that needsbination like what Instructor Mei Lan''s had was apletely different story¡
The perfect copy started to attack using her three stinger tails, but different from the previous huge gray fox''s rapid random attack, she incorporated something extra into her attacks!
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Rapid Quick shes!
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
The perfect copy''s three poisonous stinger tails were dancing swiftly as they stabbed into the huge gray fox''s fatal points like its head and neck!
The huge gray fox also used its three stinger tails to attack the perfect copy in anger.
However, the perfect copy swung her three tails to parry all of its attacks!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Redirection Flow!
None of the huge gray fox''s attacks managed tond on the perfect copy''s body, while the perfect copy was already prepared to counterattack again.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!!
The perfect copy''s three stinger tails stabbed deeply onto the huge gray fox''s front legs!
"AAAAOOOOOUUUUWWWWW~!!!" The huge gray fox roared in pain as its body was covered with ck wounds.
Unfortunately, the poison from the perfect copy''s three stinger tails was not that effective against the huge gray fox, maybe because it was still in the [Spider Scorpion Transformation], so its body has high poison resistance against the stinger''s poison.
The huge gray fox quickly realized that it could not win against Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy at this rate, so it hastily changed its strategy.
The huge gray fox canceled its [Spider Scorpion Transformation] and returned to its normal fox form.
The perfect copy immediately took this chance to attack the gray fox again!
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], sh Draw!
One of her three stinger tails vanished as it shed toward the gray fox at extremely high speed!
BAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
The perfect copy''s attack created a five meters deep crevice in the ground!
But the gray fox had already disappeared from there...
The gray fox easily dodged the perfect copy''s extremely fast attack because it activated its another divine ability!
[Sonic Bat Transformation]!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy failed to use her [Mirror of the Moon] on time to copy this divine ability since she was still in the [Spider Scorpion Transformation] right now.
If she wanted to copy this gray fox''s second divine ability, she needed to cancel the [Spider Scorpion Transformation] first and activate her [Mirror of the Moon] right when the gray fox used it.
The gray fox did not n to continue to fight against Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy anymore since it was already injured pretty badly right now.
The gray fox turned into a gray sh as it flew swiftly toward the south and disappeared from the perfect copy''s view in only a few seconds.
It looks like this [Sonic Bat Transformation] was the life-saving divine ability of the gray fox since the flying speed was extremely fast that it might be even faster than Tang Li Xue''s flying speed in [Wings of Freedom]''s buff before.
"Tsk~! Such a slippery little bast*rd!" The perfect copy muttered in annoyance.
But she did not bother to chase after the gray fox since she still needed to protect the unconscious Tang Li Xue and bring her to a safer ce.
The perfect copy canceled her [Spider Scorpion Transformation] while approaching the unconscious Tang Li Xue nearby.
Then she used her three tails to wrap the unconscious Tang Li Xue and put her onto the back.
Just when the perfect copy wanted to continue her journey, she suddenly stopped and pondered carefully: "Err... Which direction should I take? Wait a minute... maybe I should just take a rest here? It should be safe here, right? Since the previous horrible rain probably would already wipe most of the foxes in this area."
"But what if some foxes still managed to survive like that previous ugly gray fox and pester me again? What if that ugly gray foxes back here after it recovers all of its wounds to take revenge? No, I must look for a safer ce than here! But... Where?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hesitated again and again.
Then her topaz blue eyes suddenly shone brightly in excitement like a pair of glittering stars when a sh of inspiration came into her mind.
"Hahahaha~! I know the nearest safe ce! I bet no one will find us in these few days!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy happily said as she activated her [Spider Scorpion Transformation] again.
Her small furry figure immediately swelled bigger and bigger, then covered with the thick silvery white carapace.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue''s long eyshes trembled slightly as she slowly opened her topaz blue eyes.
Tang Li Xue slowly stood up with her four legs while yawning, then shezily stretched her body like a cat.
"Why is it so dark here? Is it already night?" Tang Li Xue muttered in a hoarse voice since her throat felt very dry right now.
"Stop daydreaming! It is noon right now! You already sleep for more than a day!" The perfect copy rolled her eyes and reminded Tang Li Xue.
Their mind was connected with each other, so it was impossible if Tang Li Xue did not know what she knew.
"Oh, right... It is because we are still in the underground right now..." Tang Li Xue muttered with azy tone.
Yes, the perfect copy got the idea from the gray fox because it escaped from the horrible rain through an underground tunnel it made by itself.
So, the perfect copy used the [Spider Scorpion Transformation] to dig the underground tunnel too and brought the unconscious Tang Li Xue to hide here together.
The perfect copy also carefully covered the entrance where she had started to dig before, so no one could find them until now.
She also dug pretty far, maybe more than 50 meters, so no one could sense their breath, presence, or aura from above the ground.
Actually, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to dig deeper until more than 100 meters, but there seems a wall under the ground that prevented her from digging deeper.
"So, one day has already passed?! That is great! It means the cooldown of [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s effect is already over! Each of us can resist another three deadly blows today!" Tang Li Xue said with a relieved tone mixed with a bit of happiness.
-----------------------------------------------------
[Mirror of the Moon]''s power if anyone forgot about it since it was Tang Li Xue''s first divine ability:
[Mirror of the Moon]: The user can copy one of any skill/divine ability/martial art that the user sees from any target.
(Note 1: The previously copied ability would be erased if the user copy more than one ability, and only thetest ability would be saved)
(Note 2: The ability that the user copy would be strengthened/weakened ording to the user''s current strength/stats)
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could use [Mirror of the Moon], so they could copy 2 different abilities now. Both of them could use these 2 different abilities since they were connected to each other.
Something like the bird''s flight ability could not be copied by [Mirror of the Moon] since the bird needs its wings to fly.
In short, [Mirror of the Moon] could not copy any ability that needs some special organ to use it, like the fish''s underwater breathing ability need fins.
That was the reason why Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also could not copy the huge gray fox''s ability to make invisible webs at first, but she finally could copy its [Spider Scorpion Transformation] when the gray fox canceled its divine ability.
Chapter 523: Deadly Game!
Chapter 523: Deadly Game!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and reminded: "Isn''t it better if we just hide here until the first phase is over? Why should we wander around at this time when those bloodthirsty predator foxes are still busily harvesting the lives of weaker foxes?"
"This... Err... Not a bad idea, but... Isn''t that too cowardly? It does not look like a protagonist at all! What if someone knows about this in the future? My image as an OP beautiful fox goddess will crumble!" Tang Li Xue started rambling on in a doubtful tone.
The perfect copy stared strangely at Tang Li Xue while her mouth twitched violently.
She almost could not hold back and scolded right on Tang Li Xue''s face.
The perfect copy took a deep breath and asked with a calmer tone: "Where did you get the thought that you are the protagonist?"
"Because I have system?" Tang Li Xue replied lightly.
"Then why do you think you are OP? You had already got defeated many times before! By Instructor Lan, Mo Chonglin, Elder Yang, huge owl, and so on... You even almost kicked the bucket several times already!" The perfect copy asked again with a colder voice.
"All right, I am just kidding... and I also said ''in the future'', aren''t I? Okay, how about this... You can stay here while I will go out alone to check the surrounding situation. Do not worry; I can easily use the usual ''swap and resummon'' trick If I meet with any dangerter." Tang Li Xue exined her n.
Actually, Tang Li Xue was unwilling to give up and hide without trying since she was still aiming to get some additional achievement rewards from the [Alice in Treasure Land] questter.
It was not life-threatening to die in this Foxes Hunting Festival anyway, so why not be a little bit brave and take some risk to get more rewards from her system''s quest?!
After some discussion between Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy, they finally decided to do just like what Tang Li Xue had said.
Tang Li Xue activated the [Spider Scorpion Transformation] divine ability, then her figure swelled bigger and covered with the thick silvery white carapace.
In her Spider Scorpion form, Tang Li Xue easily dug a tunnel out to above the ground.
When Tang Li Xue reached the surface, it was already dawn, and the sun was almost set.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath of fresh air since it was so suffocating in the underground before.
If Tang Li Xue was an ordinary mortal... or ordinary fox, she might already have been out of breath to death long ago.
"Hmmm... Which direction should I go now? But I would never go back in the direction of the previous rainy area!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a yful tone.
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to run in the direction where the sun was set.
Tang Li Xue canceled the [Spider Scorpion Transformation] while activating her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] as she ran swiftly toward the west.
However, Tang Li Xue did not meet with any other foxes after traveling for one or two hours this time.
''It seems the number of participants has decreased a lotpared to before after more than one day. At this rate, the first phase will probably be over in a week or so.'' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind.
Because the night sky in this Treasure Land was so dark without any moon or stars, several golden lights of the precious treasures could clearly be seen from afar right now.
The nearest precious treasure location was only a few hundred miles from Tang Li Xue''s current location, so she decided to take a look closer.
Different from before, when the precious treasure suddenly appeared near her hiding ce, she was fully prepared right now!
She has three times protection from the [Sun And Moon Aegis] now, and she could also use the ''steal and run'' strategy along with the ''swapping location and resummon'' trick with her perfect copy.
In short, the current Tang Li Xue has more than seventy percent confidence to sessfully steal these precious treasures from the other foxes!
When Tang Li Xue approached the pir of the golden light, she raised her vignce to the maximum, and she also urged her [Extrasensory Perception] to expand wider.
''Strange... Why is there no one here? But my [Extrasensory Perception] did not sense any danger at all. So, is this precious treasure free for me?!'' Tang Li Xue thought while frowning deeply.
After pondering carefully for a few moments, Tang Li Xue decisively approached the pir of the golden light to quickly snatch the precious treasure!
But who knew Tang Li Xue''s invisible figure actually got sucked into the pir of the golden light when she got closer to it!
''What the hell is happening..." Before Tang Li Xue could finish her words or do anything, she entered the pir of golden light and disappeared.
.....
...
.
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes again, she was not in the forest anymore but inside the huge closed room.
Other than her, there were actually five other foxes inside this huge closed room.
Thankfully, they were not besieging Tang Li Xue together the moment she arrived here.
Of course, maybe it was because Tang Li Xue was still in her [Ethereal Form], so they could not find her for now.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she still did not get what really happened to her right now.
Since no one had fought with each other yet, Tang Li Xue took this chance to observe her surrounding more carefully.
''This is a solid room. It should be hard for us to get out of here with force. But since the other foxes are still so calm right now, it means we should have some way to get out from hereter.''
''This huge closed room should have utilized the same space technology as the Education Department Building''s training rooms or Residential Building''s house inside the room.''
Tang Li Xue concluded one by one calmly.
Then she tried to sense her perfect copy, but her [Twin Moons] divine ability was actually got automatically canceled as if this huge closed room was in a different space from the Treasure Ind.
So, since the two ces were not in the same space, the [Twin Moons] measured that the distance between Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy was too far and automatically got canceled.
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment because she could no longer use the ''swapping location and resummon'' trick to instantly get out of this room.
When Tang Li Xue wanted to the center of this huge closed room, she saw a set of hologram-like numbers floating in mid-air.
[213]...
[212]...
[210]...
''Wait, the number is counting down! What does it mean? This ce will not explode after it reaches zero, right?'' Tang Li Xue muttered in her heart.
After looking around this huge closed room for a while, Tang Li Xue did not find any more clues, so she could only wait for the time countdown to reach zero like other foxes.
When the time almost reached zero, there were two other foxes arriving here, so there were seven foxes in total, including Tang Li Xue, inside this closed room.
[5], [4], [3], [2], [1], [0]....
Suddenly, a red pointer appeared above the head of one of the foxes!
''What does that mean? Damn it! I don''t get it at all!'' Tang Li Xue angrily thought.
However, the zero number floating in mid-air changed into a string of words!
[If your attack hits the fox with the red pointer, the red pointer will change to yours.]
[You all have 10 minutes, and thest fox with the red pointer will get the precious treasure.]
[Have a good fight, fox cubs! I wish you luck!]
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Just when Tang Li Xue finished reading the words, the previous fox with the red pointer was already sent flying by another fox and crashed onto the sturdy wall.
That fox turned into a group of white lights and disappeared!
Yes, it got eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival just like that!
''Damn! So, this is how we get the precious treasure?! We mustpete with each other first in this kind of deadly game?!'' Tang Li Xue was baffled at that instant.
Then many questions came into Tang Li Xue''s mind...
''So, should we y the same Tag game like this every time we get close to the pir of golden light to get the precious treasure? No way, right?! The game should be different for every treasure!''
''Now I know why those predator foxes want to eliminate the other foxes earlier. Because without any otherpetitor, the treasure in the pir of golden light would automatically fall into their hands without any need topete with others at all!''
''Urgghhh... Why didn''t Instructor Lan tell us about this before?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in frustration.
Actually, it was not Instructor Mei Lan''s fault since this kind of information was prohibited from being told to the students by the higher-ups of Myriad Foxes Academy.
It was the same as a teacher could tell to the students which part they should focus on learning before the exam, but the teacher could not tell the exact exam questions or answers to the students.
While Tang Li Xue was still in deep thought, the battle between the other six foxes was already extremely fierce!
Two other foxes could only hold for less than one minute and got eliminated too!
There were only four foxes left, including Tang Li Xue, that was still hiding quietly in her [Ethereal Form].
Chapter 524: Battle Royale!
Since the game of Tag had started, the battle between them was dominated by a light green fox.
Its divine ability was shooting an extremely powerful air bullet.
Moreover, its air bullet could bounce in mid-air like a rubber ball, and its course could be controlled ording to the light green fox''s will.
In short, its air bullet was too fast to dodge, too powerful to be blocked, and it could also bounce unpredictably in mid-air!
Two out of the three eliminated foxes were hit by this light green fox''s air bullets.
Even Tang Li Xue herself was not sure that she could 100 percent win against this light green fox in a life-or-death battle.
Tang Li Xue was very sure that this light green fox might be thest fox to win this treasure if she was not here to snatch it.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was already nning to wait until the other three foxes had killed each other until thest one was left.
Then she only needed to wait until thest second beforeunching a sneak attack on thatst fox to snatch the red pointer from it and get the precious treasure easily.
But out of everyone''s expectations, somethingpletely unexpected ruined Tang Li Xue''s n!
The yellow-colored fox suddenlyunched a counterattack!
WEEEENNNNNGGG~!!!
Before the light green fox could attack it, the yellow fox''s body was glowing blindingly bright all of a sudden!
"UARRGGGHH~!!! My eyes~!" Tang Li Xue groaned as she quickly covered her painful eyes with her paws.
Even Tang Li Xue''s [Extraordinary Perception] failed to notice this attack since it was not a dangerous life-threatening skill.
But it was more than enough to harm Tang Li Xue, and her [Ethereal Form] also got automatically canceled because of this!
The other two foxes were also roaring and screaming in pain while covering their eyes and rolling on the ground in pain.
This blinding light divine ability was so powerful that it did not only make the other foxes temporarily blind but also temporarily shut all of their senses, causing their sense of panic and fear to amplify many times!
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue''s [Imperial Sun and Moon Fox] bloodline and [Sun And Moon Aegis] divine ability immediately worked to dispel this panic and fear debuff in only a few moments.
Tang Li Xue could sense a cool sensation washing her heart and mind, making her a lot calmer in this chaotic situation.
Unfortunately, her temporary blindness and loss of all senses still persisted, so Tang Li Xue still could not see or sense anything at all.
Thest time Tang Li Xue felt like this was when the [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] sealed all of her senses and movement before, but the difference was that she could still move freely right now.
Tang Li Xue nned to wait patiently until her eyes and all of her senses to back to normal by themselves.
Since even her [Spirit Perception] or [Extrasensory Perception] also got shut down at this moment, so there was nothing she could do right now.
Who knew that the other three foxes did not think the same as Tang Li Xue at all?!
BBBAAAAAAAANNGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue felt something strike her body hard until she was thrown off several meters and crashed onto the hard wall!
''Ouch~!!! Who the hell dares to sneakily hit me?! Only I can sneak attack others, not otherwise!'' Tang Li Xue angrily scolded in her mind.
Actually, the other two foxes, except the yellow fox, were also in the same situation as Tang Li Xue, but they did not want to sit and wait quietly until their senses got back to normal like Tang Li Xue, so they decided to throw random attacks instead!
Meanwhile, the yellow fox already hid in the corner of the room and waited patiently for the other three foxes to kill each other with their random attacks!
When the second strike hit Tang Li Xue hard until she crashed down onto the floor...
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (2/3)]
Tang Li Xue realized that she could no longer wait anymore, so she decided to summon out her perfect copy instead!
[Twin Moons]!
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was summoned out, she immediately activated [Spider Scorpion Transformation]!
Without any hesitation, the perfect copy was quickly spurting out the invisible thin webs to ensnare the other three foxes!
But the yellow fox was hastily emitting an extremely hot light on its entire body.
Its light was not bright or blinding like before, but it could burn all of the invisible thin webs which covered its body.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned deeply as she thought: ''This little bast*rd is hiding so deeply! It is quite powerful but acting very low-key until now!''
The perfect copy took a nce at the center of the closed room...
[07:48]
"Tsk~! Only two minutes had passed! So, we must hold on for more than seven minutes or kill the other three foxes if we want to get the treasures. This is pretty troublesome!" The perfect copyined in annoyance.
The battle entered stalemate for quite some time since the other two foxes were ensnared by the perfect copy''s invisible thin webs, so the red pointer was on Tang Li Xue''s head right now.
The perfect copy was protecting Tang Li Xue, while the cautious yellow fox did not dare to make any move rashly.
After more than one minute, Tang Li Xue and the other two foxespletely recovered from the temporary blindness and loss of all senses.
[06:21]
The light green fox spun its body, and the invisible thin webs that covered its body were cut to pieces.
While thest magenta-colored fox was using its three tails to easily tear the invisible thin webs on its body.
If Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rashly attacked these two foxes before, she might get counterattacked by their hidden skills!
The perfect copy''s mouth twitched while she whispered in her heart: ''Damn, none of these genius foxes are simple! Each of them has their own hidden cards to turn the situation around if they are given a chance!''
There were still four foxes... No, five foxes, including Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, inside this closed room, but unlike before, no one dared to make a move rashly right now.
The magenta fox and light green fox stared viciously at Tang Li Xue since she was the one who currently held the red pointer.
But the yellow fox''s blinding divine ability was also extremely threatening to all of the foxes in this room right now!
If the yellow fox used that blinding divine ability at thest second when the time was almost up and it was holding the red pointer... the yellow fox would surely be the final winner!
So, the magenta fox and light green fox decided to eliminate the yellow fox first before targeting Tang Li Xue!
''Those two idiot foxes still fail to recognize our current situation. Sigh... Don''t look... Err... Forget it! I will un-summon you first for now.'' Tang Li Xue told her perfect copy.
After canceling the [Twin Moons] divine ability to un-summon her perfect copy, Tang Li Xue quickly turned around.
WEEEENNNNNGGG~!!!
The yellow-colored fox suddenly used the blinding divine ability once more!
The magenta fox and light green fox instantly fell to the ground and roared in pain.
Even after turning around and closing her eyes, Tang Li Xue found out that she was still a bit affected by it.
When she opened her topaz blue eyes, everything looked blurry, and all of her senses seemed to be in disorder.
Yes, this was their current situation, ording to Tang Li Xue''s conclusion...
They were in a stalemate!
If the magenta fox and light green fox decide to attack Tang Li Xue to rob her red pointer, then they need to fight fiercely against both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy.
The yellow fox only needs to wait patiently until thest second to use its blinding divine ability and rob the red pointer from the other fox to be thest winner.
But if they attacked the yellow fox first, then something like this would definitely happen again.
Of course, the one who could break this stalemate was Tang Li Xue herself!
But she was currently waiting patiently for the right time to act...
Meanwhile, the magenta fox and light green fox recovered their senses again after more than one minute.
Both of them growled angrily at the yellow fox, but they did not n to repeat what had just happened before, so they decided to just attack Tang Li Xue this time!
Tang Li Xue secretly took a nce at the timer at the center of the closed room.
[05:09]
Tang Li Xue used [Twin Moons] again to summon her perfect copy and instructed: ''You know what to do, right? Just help me stall for more time until thest moment!''
''Okay! But do you really think this simple n will work?'' The perfect copy replied as she activated the [Spider Scorpion Transformation].
''Hehehe... We will see itter~! You only need to do your part well and leave the rest to me.'' Tang Li Xue answered with a tone filled with confidence.
The perfect copy sighed as she stood in front of Tang Li Xue and faced the magenta fox and light green fox who charged swiftly toward her!
The light green fox opened its mouth and shot several air bullets rapidly toward the perfect copy!
While the magenta fox galloped closer toward the perfect copy as its three tails turned into three giant hands to punch Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy away!
Chapter 525: Comprehending New Skill From Battle!
The perfect copy activated the [Wings of Freedom] effect to enhance her speed while she was in [Spider Scorpion Transformation].
When the light green fox''s several lethal air bullets almost hit the perfect copy''s body...
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
The several lethal air bullets only managed to hit the perfect copy''s afterimage!
The perfect copy instantly appeared right in front of the magenta fox''s snout.
The magenta fox reacted fast as it swung its three tails in the form of three giant fists down!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
The perfect copy took circr steps as her three stinger tails suddenly spun violently!
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
The perfect copy''s three stinger tails pped away the magenta fox''s three tails in the form of giant fists!
Even her hard three stinger tails felt numb, as if she just struck three hard metal poles.
''Tsk~! It seems this fox is really good at close-range battle! It would be a bad idea to keep fighting melee with it.'' The perfect copy clicked her tongue in amazement as she jumped back to distance herself from the magenta fox.
But magenta fox did not n to let Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy go andunch another attack toward her!
The perfect copy prepared to counterattack, but her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed something dangerousing from behind her.
So, the perfect copy swiftly used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to sh toward the left side to avoid it.
The several air bullets shot by the light green fox bounced several times in mid-air and locked onto the perfect copy again, but it only managed to hit her afterimage once again.
After shooting past the perfect copy''s afterimage, those several lethal air bullets identally headed toward the magenta fox who charged toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy just now!
But the magenta fox cleverly used its three tails in the form of three giant hands to quickly wrap its body as a shield!
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
The magenta fox was pushed back dozen of meters, but it waspletely unharmed.
The magenta fox growled angrily at the light green fox, but the light green fox did not have any free time to pay attention to the magenta fox because it was already fighting against the real Tang Li Xue!
It became 2 on 2 battle!
Only the yellow fox did not do anything and waited patiently from the corner of the room.
However, Tang Li Xue surprisingly faced a lot of trouble against the light green fox since she did not want to get hit by any attack or her red pointer would get snatched by another fox.
The light green foxunched several lethal air bullets toward the real Tang Li Xue again for the third time after she dodged all of its previous attacks with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
"You really think I am afraid of you just because I am always dodging your attacks until now, right?" Tang Li Xue said in an angry tone.
Meanwhile, the previous air bullets shot by the light green fox already bounced several times in mid-air and headed toward Tang Li Xue at the same time.
Tens of lethal air bullets flew toward Tang Li Xue from all directions!
There was no space for her to dodge anymore this time!
Tang Li Xue shouted with a vigorous voice: "Let''s go, Dumb Bird~! [Perfect Assimtion] mode!"
BBWWWWWOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
The extremely hot deep blue mes shrouded Tang Li Xue''s graceful silver furry figure in an instant!
[Phoenix Cloak]!
Tang Li Xue instantly condensed a cloak of deep blue mes to protect herself!
Dense lethal air bullets were burned by the cloak of deep blue mes before they could even touch any of Tang Li Xue''s fur!
"Do you really think only you can y with bullets? Then try to eat my [Fiery Bullets]!" Tang Li Xue muttered coldly.
Tang Li Xue condensed several huge deep blue fireballs, but she carefullypressed them to be much smaller like bullets.
This was a new attack skill that Tang Li Xue by imitating the light green fox''s air bullets.
The light green fox was dumbfounded by Tang Li Xue''s sudden transformation, but it quickly woke up andunched another volley of attacks toward her.
At the same moment, Tang Li Xue also shot all of her [Fiery Bullets] toward the light green fox!
Tang Li Xue''s [Fiery Bullets] met head-on against the light green fox''s lethal air bullets!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
The result was actually a tie!
Both [Fiery Bullets] or the lethal air bullets, there was nothing left as if they were canceled each other.
However, Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining in excitement.
Different frompressing [me Arrow] or [Fire Bomb] to be [Purple Destruction Wave] or [Spiral Sphere Bomb], these [Fiery Bullets] were made bypressing normal me balls.
So, these [Fiery Bullets] were so much easier and faster to makepared to [me Arrow] or [Fire Bomb]!
In short, Tang Li Xue could make dozen of these [Fiery Bullets] at once, and she could make them in a second.
Tang Li Xue thought for a while and adjusted her [Fiery Bullets] skill again.
Rather than shooting all of them at once, she chose topress dozen of them at once but shoot them one by one rapidly, so she could shoot them non-stop!
"Eat this~! Tang Li Xue''s [Gatling Gun]~!" Tang Li Xue shouted with an excited tone.
The [Fiery Bullets] were shooting one by one rapidly toward the light green fox!
The light green fox also shot its lethal air bullets toward Tang Li Xue.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
Who knew the battle between these two foxes would be like a battle between two soldiers with firearms?!
Tang Li Xue''s [Fiery Bullet] has high explosive power; each of them is like a grenade.
While the light green fox''s air bullets were extremely sharp and more unpredictable with bouncing ability.
Their battle entered stalemate once again.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still busily fighting against the magenta fox all this time.
She secretly took a nce toward the timer at the center of the closed room again.
[2:47]
''Don''t get absorbed and y around too much! It is only two more minutes...'' The perfect copy notified Tang Li Xue through their mental connection.
But the magenta fox''s two tails in the form of giant hands suddenly pped toward the perfect copy.
The perfect could only dodge the magenta fox''s attack by using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] again.
However, the magenta fox suddenly used itsst tail to m on the ground and swiftly pounced toward the real Tang Li Xue!
"Damn! It can still use its tails to perform this kind of acrobatic move?! Watch out!" The perfect copy eximed in surprise and hastily warned the real Tang Li Xue.
Even Tang Li Xue and the light green fox were caught off guard by the magenta fox''s sudden move!
It was already toote for Tang Li Xue to avoid the magenta fox, so she could only try her best to defend herself!
[Phoenix Cloak]!
Tang Li Xue condensed another cloak to protect herself from any attack!
Unfortunately, the magenta fox''s three tails in the form of three giant hands clearly have very high defense and resistance to attacks, including heat, cold, or sharp weapons.
The magenta fox rained Tang Li Xue with three giant fists formed from its three tails!
BAAAANNNNG~!!! BAAAANNNNG~!!! BBBOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Phoenix Cloak] could block the first and second fist attacks, but it broke when the third fistnded!
Tang Li Xue was thrown off several meters by the magenta fox''s attack, but she quickly activated the [Wings of Freedom] effect too, and stopped in mid-air with the fast flight ability granted by the [Wings of Freedom] before she crashed onto the nearby wall.
At this time, Tang Li Xue''s red pointer has already moved to the magenta fox!
One of Tang Li Xue''s front legs was also broken by the magenta fox''s attack now, but it only took more or less ten seconds for her topletely recover.
The light green fox stopped attacking Tang Li Xue and changed its target to the magenta fox right now!
''Aihhh~! Look what you have done?! How could the red pointer be snatched by that fox so easily?!'' The perfect copyined to Tang Li Xue with their mental connection.
''There is no use crying over the spilled milk! There are still two minutes left! Let''s go! Quickly help me snatch the red pointer back!'' Tang Li Xue instructed as sheunched [Fiery Bullets] toward the magenta fox.
For Tang Li Xue and the light green fox, the magenta fox might be extremely hard to defeat due to its sturdy defense, but it would be easy if they only wanted to snatch the red pointer from the magenta fox.
But the magenta fox suddenly sneered cunningly toward them as it used a divine ability that it had never used until now!
The magenta fox was instantly wrapped by a small crystal dome!
When Tang Li Xue''s [Fiery Bullets] and the light green fox''s lethal air bullets struck the small crystal dome, they only managed to create a few ripples!
"What the hell is this?! Defense type divine ability? Then let''s see how strong your turtle shell is?!" Tang Li Xue angrily said as she created a deep blue [Fire Bomb] and threw it toward the small crystal dome.
However, Tang Li Xue''s [Fire Bomb] attack only managed to create a ripple when it hit the small crystal dome.
Her [Fire Bomb] did not even explode like usual, as if it got swallowed by the small crystal dome instead!
The light green fox also kept shooting its lethal air bullets toward a single point of the small crystal dome, but it was futile.
The magenta fox wasughing mockingly at them and even waving its paw to provoke the other foxes, including Tang Li Xue, to keep attacking its defense crystal dome.
It seems the magenta fox had absolute confidence in its defense divine ability that no one could break its defense dome.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took another nce at the timer at the center of the closed room and said with a solemn tone: "This is bad... That cunning fox really caught all of us off guard at the most crucial timing."
[00:59]
They only have less than one minute left to snatch the red pointer from the magenta fox!
The magenta fox''s defense-type divine ability clearly has many disadvantages, such as it could not move or attack when it was still inside that crystal dome, but it was a perfect trump card in this kind of situation.
Since the magenta fox could stall time as long as it wanted after it got the red pointer with this kind of defense-type divine ability!
Chapter 526: One Step Ahead of Everyone!
Tang Li Xueunched another attack on the crystal dome in anxiousness since their time was almost up.
[Fiery Bullets]!
Tang Li Xue shot thepressed fire bullets rapidly toward a single point on the crystal dome, just like what the light green fox was doing until now.
But after more than 20 seconds, both Tang Li Xue and the light green fox still failed to even leave any crack on the magenta fox''s defense crystal dome.
The magenta fox wasughing out loud as if it was mocking the futile effort of Tang Li Xue and the light green fox.
"Damn it~! Then let''s try if you can take this!" Tang Li Xue muttered in an angry tone as she activated the [Spider Scorpion Transformation] to increase her strength even more, then she whipped one of its three stinger tails toward the crystal dome.
[Moon Shattering Strike]!
BBAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGG~!!!
Magenta fox''s defense crystal dome was shaking violently as Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Shattering Strike] struck it heavily.
Even the magenta fox stoppedughing and stared at its defense crystal dome that shook like jelly in shock and disbelief.
Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Shattering Strike] might have extremely powerful defense pration power, but unfortunately, it was still far from enough to break the magenta fox''s defense crystal dome.
Magenta fox sighed in relief when its defense crystal dome stopped shaking and went back again to normal.
Tang Li Xue put on an expression of shock, anger, disbelief, and unwillingness.
While her perfect copy secretly took a nce at the timer in the center of the closed room.
[00:05]
''Only 5 seconds left! It is time for us to make our moves! Hope your n really works this time... or all of our efforts would be for nothing.'' The perfect copy told Tang Li Xue with their mental connection.
Yes, all of Tang Li Xue''s previous expressions were only her acting to wait until thest moment, so the other foxes would lower their guard against her!
Tang Li Xue suddenly showed her fangs as she revealed a confident sneer and used the divine ability that she rarely used until now...
[Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes]!
Tang Li Xue''s right eye was glowing a majestic golden light!
The magenta fox''s body inside the defense crystal dome was suddenly incinerated by golden mes!
Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] could bypass the magenta fox''s defense crystal dome and burn the magenta fox directly!
The magenta fox was screaming and wailing out loud in pain as its body was set on fire by Tang Li Xue''s fiery golden mes.
The red pointer above the magenta fox''s head moved to Tang Li Xue''s head in that instant!
[00:03]
Just when Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy thought that they were already winning...
The yellow fox who waited patiently all this time already pounced swiftly toward Tang Li Xue as its body began to glow!
"I already guess a little scheming bast*rd like you will definitely make your move at thest moment!" The perfect copy shouted in anger as she used [Energy Maniption] to create something in front of the real Tang Li Xue to protect her from the yellow fox''s sudden attack.
A mirror!
Yes, the perfect copy created a mirror wall in front of Tang Li Xue!
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy never used their [Energy Maniption] until now because they wanted to catch this yellow fox off guard with this tactic!
The yellow fox was astonished, but it was already toote for it to stop its blinding light divine ability from activating!
WEEEENNNNNGGG~!!!
The yellow fox''s body was shining blindingly bright in thatst second stunning every fox in this closed room... including itself!
[00:00]
When the time was up, all of the surviving foxes were kicked out of the closed room and teleported back to Treasure Ind.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes, and she found herself already in the middle of the valley.
"Where am... No! Wait a minute, where is my precious treasure?!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a bewildered tone.
But she quickly found a small wooden box in front of her.
"Woah~! Is this my reward?! I wonder what is inside it!" Tang Li Xue muttered impatiently as she quickly approached the small wooden box.
However, her perfect copy quickly stopped Tang Li Xue and reminded her: "Hold on for a minute~! What if there is a trap or dangerous item inside it?! You just stay away from that box and let me open it alone instead."
Tang Li Xue''s excitement was instantly extinguished like being doused with cold water.
It was like when you bought delicious food, but your parents said that food was not good for your health, and they ate that delicious food instead.
"Is there really any need to be too careful like that? I think this box should be safe! How could they put a trap or dangerous item as a reward, right?!" Tang Li Xue asked back with a disbelief tone.
The perfect copy rolled her eyes and advised: "There is nothing wrong with being more careful. Let alone this wooden box is given by someone you do not know."
"But... But... I still have [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s protection, right?! So, it should be all right for me to open this box by myself!" Tang Li Xue tried to argue with an unwilling tone.
"You only have 2 more protection from [Sun And Moon Aegis]. I still have full 3 [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s protection!" The perfect copy replied tly.
Finally, Tang Li Xue could only ept her perfect copy''s suggestion and walked farther sadly from the small wooden box.
The perfect copy nervously stared at the small wooden box for a few moments.
She slowly reached her paw toward the small wooden box with a solemn expression while gulping her saliva.
"Can you just open the box right away quickly?! You already spend too much time!" Tang Li Xue shouted angrily as she almost wanted to run and quickly opened the box by herself.
When the perfect copy cautiously opened the small wooden box...
The Phoenix of Pride inside Tang Li Xue''s Dantian suddenly flew out and shed toward the small wooden box!
Inside the small wooden box was a crimson fruit that emitted scorching heat.
The Phoenix of Pride swiftly grabbed the crimson fruit inside the small wooden box and engulfed the fruit with its deep blue mes.
It seems this was the Phoenix of Pride''s way of eating the scorching crimson fruit.
*Ding
[Your Phoenix of Pride had consumed the Crimson Sun Fruit. Its me power and all fire skills'' lethality increased by 20%!]
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock as she shouted in disbelief: "Increased me power and the lethality of fire skills by 20%?! That is quite a lot!"
The strength of Phoenix of Pride had already increased by several times after it digested the source of Purple Ghost me before, and now, its strength increased again by 20%!
Moreover, ording to what Instructor Mei Lan had said to them before, the precious treasures that appeared in the first phase of the Foxes Hunting Festival were the least valuable ones.
Then the treasures and resources would gradually be more and more valuable as time passed until the end of the Foxes Hunting Festival, the most valuable treasures would appear.
"This [Crimson Sun Fruit] appeared on the second or third day of the Foxes Hunting Festival, so this is also the least valuable treasure?! Now I really want to see what kind of treasure is the most valuable one!" Tang Li Xue murmured as her topaz blue eyes shone with excitement.
"Don''t you dare to think that far yet! Just so you know that we are really lucky this time. We did not meet with any monstrous predator like the previous rainy aqua fox or the abomination ck fox!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly reminded Tang Li Xue before she became overconfident.
The light green fox, magenta fox, and yellow fox might have quite a set of powerful divine abilities, but they have not reached the level of predator yet.
At least, no one of them could fight equally against the rainy aqua fox or the abomination ck fox.
On the contrary, the three of them might even get obliterated at once in less than one minute by any of those monstrous predators.
"If we really meet with monstrous predators like them in the game, we might already be eliminated before we can hold out until the end. You should know that there should be many other monstrous predators like them participating in this Foxes Hunting Festival." The perfect copy added a few more sentences to warn Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue quickly replied: "I know that we will certainly meet with monstrous predators sooner orter if we keep looking for the other precious treasures. But isn''t this what we must do?"
"Isn''t the real purpose of every fox participating in this Foxes Hunting Festival to get more treasures or resources to be stronger? So, how could we just hide cowardly and do nothing until the festival is over?!" Tang Li Xue said with a firm tone.
This time, the perfect copy did not deny Tang Li Xue''s words.
The perfect copy stared at Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression and answered: "That is why we must make more cautious ns before we enter any treasure game!"
After discussing it for a while, they decided that the perfect copy would be the first who approached the pir of golden light this time.
They wanted to see if the perfect copy could participate in the treasure game alone without the real Tang Li Xue.
If the perfect copy could really do it, then Tang Li Xue did not need to take a great risk to participate in the treasure game by herself anymore.
Unfortunately, their n could only be postponed when they identally bumped into an amazing event taking ce in this valley.
While Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were traveling in the valley toward another nearby pir of golden light stealthy in the [Ethereal Form], suddenly...
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Chapter 527: Accident Occurred!
Chapter 527: ident urred!
The cliff above the valley suddenly copsed!
Thendslide and huge stones fell like a giant tsunami!
Rumble~!!! Rumble~!!! Rumble~!!!
Tang Li Xue did not even have enough time to react as something enormous suddenly fell onto her!
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (1/3)]
Even after the protection from [Sun and Moon Aegis] resisted the blow from the enormous thing, Tang Li Xue still felt something extremely heavy press and rub her onto the ground as if it wanted to crush her into powder.
Tang Li Xue hastily used [Swap] skill to exchange position with her perfect copy!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already ran far ahead of her toward the nearest pir of golden light to check if there was any danger on their way.
However, misfortune still fell on the real Tang Li Xue rather than her perfect copy, who ran far ahead of her...
Tang Li Xue quickly deactivated her [Twin Moons] divine ability to un-summon her perfect copy before her perfect copy received another lethal blow, and her [Sun And Moon Aegis] protection was activated.
From several miles away, Tang Li Xue finally knew what had happened just now turned out was not a natural disaster, but the two enormous foxes fought against each other!
The battle between them was extremely spectacr, like in the Kaiju movie.
But Tang Li Xue did not have any desire to appreciate their spectacr battle after she almost identally got eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival because of their battle just now.
"Damn it~! Why the hell are you even fighting here?! If you want to fight, at least fight inside the treasure game space!" Tang Li Xue scolded as she activated her [Twin Moons] divine ability to summon out her perfect copy again.
The perfect copy stared at Tang Li Xue strangely for a while.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something dirty on my snout?" Tang Li Xue asked in confusion while touching her head and snout with her front paws.
"You still dare to ask! Why is your luck so bad?! Even something unreasonable like being squished to death by kaiju... err, I mean by the giant fox could happen to you!" The perfect copy angrily answered Tang Li Xue.
"You cannot me me for that, right? This Treasure Ind is the ce for the Foxes Hunting Festival, and any ce here is equally dangerous!" Tang Li Xue replied with a reasonable excuse.
The perfect copy could only sigh in resignation and reminded: "These two giant foxes might also be heading toward the same nearest treasure ce as us."
Tang Li Xue nodded and added in a solemn tone: "identally meeting with them here might not be that bad. Looking at the horrible strength they showed right now, these two giant foxes surely have already reached the predator ss. If we met them in the treasure gameter, we might really get eliminated early in this Fox Hunting Festival!"
The perfect copy nodded in agreement and said: "Let''s get out farther from here quick! It would be extremely bad if they targeted uster."
Tang Li Xue took another nce at the two giant foxes who were still fighting fiercely against each other.
One of them was a giant fox covered in orange mes, while the other one was covered in earth armor.
The me giant fox was at a slight disadvantage since the earth-armored fox had a much higher defense.
That was the reason why the me giant fox was knocked away by the earth-armored fox and crashed down onto the hill, then identally fell onto Tang Li Xue before.
Even Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] failed to sense any danger before since it waspletely an ident, and it happened too suddenly.
Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] also could not help her bypass the me giant fox''s body like a normal wall since the me giant fox''s body was infused with extremely powerful me power.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy hastily activated their [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] again.
Then both of them used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and ran swiftly in two different directions as usual.
They decided to choose another pir of golden light farther away from this valley, so they would not face these two giant foxes in the treasure gameter.
However, they clearly needed a much longer time to reach that ce.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue did not meet with any idents again on her way this time.
She saw more than a dozen of other foxes on her way, but those foxes could not detect her since she was still in [Ethereal Form], and Tang Li Xue also did not want to waste her time fighting against them, so she decided to just ignore them.
After the sun almost set, Tang Li Xue got out of the valley area and entered theke area.
There was a small ind in the middle of the hugeke, and the pir of the golden light was located on that small ind.
After hesitating for a few moments, Tang Li Xue decided to activate her [Wings of Freedom] effect and flew swiftly toward the small ind.
But before she could reach that small ind, theke water suddenly exploded as something shot out from underwater toward Tang Li Xue!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] already sensed something was targeting her from under theke just now, but the sudden sneak attack was too fast for Tang Li Xue to dodge.
So, she decided to strike back with force instead!
[Moon Shattering Strike]!
Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form] and activated her [Spider Scorpion Form] in an instant, and whipped her stinger tail toward something that was shooting toward her!
BBAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue was thrown back several meters, but she finally could clearly see what was attacking her just now.
"What the hell is that? A tentacle? Is it an octopus tentacle? No, it is so huge, so it should be the Kraken''s tentacle?" Tang Li Xue murmured with an unsure tone.
The one who attacked Tang Li Xue began to float out from the water.
It was actually another huge fox, but its body was like a giant Kraken instead.
It has two heads, the one on the front was a Kraken head, but the head behind it was a fox head.
Tang Li Xue was extremely disgusted by the form of this fox''s Kraken body, even more than the previous abomination ck fox.
''I know that there are countless divine abilities, but I never know that there is such a disgusting transformation-type divine ability like this one. I rather get eliminated earlier from this Foxes Hunting Festival than copy and using this kind of disgusting transformation-type divine ability!'' Tang Li Xue scolded in her mind.
''Be careful, don''t let your guard down just because it looks extremely disgusting! From its form, this fox should have a lot of advantage in water battle, so don''t get dragged by it into the water!'' The perfect copy reminded from their mental connection.
''I know~! I do not even want to fight against this disgusting one at all. I will just ignore it and fly quickly toward the small ind!'' Tang Li Xue replied as she turned around and quickly used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to fly faster toward the small ind.
Unfortunately, the huge Kraken fox could move faster than Tang Li Xue in the water!
It swiftly caught up to Tang Li Xue in less than one second, and its dozen enormous tentacles besieged Tang Li Xue from all directions!
By relying on her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and moved in a zigzag pattern to dodge the several enormous tentacles'' attacks!
But there were too many enormous tentacles, and Tang Li Xue clearly could not dodge them all.
When one of the enormous tentacles almost struck Tang Li Xue''s body, she hastily created a transparent shield by using her [Energy Maniption]!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAANNNGG~!!!
The power of the enormous tentacles was too strong that the transparent shield created by Tang Li Xue using her [Energy Maniption] was shattered in an instant!
That enormous tentacle struck Tang Li Xue''s body heavily after it shattered the transparent shield!
Luckily, the power of the enormous tentacle had already decreased a lot after it broke the transparent shield, and Tang Li Xue was still in her [Spider Scorpion Form], so she had carapace protection on her body.
The enormous tentacle''s attack only managed to slightly crack Tang Li Xue''s carapace, but Tang Li Xue''s body was mmed into theke!
''That is extremely bad! Quickly get out of the water!'' The perfect copy shouted anxiously in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
However, the giant Kraken fox already moved faster and used its enormous tentacles to entangle Tang Li Xue''s small silver furry body!
It seems the giant Kraken fox wanted to crush Tang Li Xue by squeezing her using its enormous tentacles!
''Sigh... It is already toote. Just use [Swap] now, and...'' The perfect copy gave a suggestion to Tang Li Xue, but before she could finish her words.
"Shut up! It is not over yet!" Tang Li Xue shouted angrily as her body started to glow with deep blue light.
[Perfect Assimtion]!
BBBWWWWWOOOOOOOOSSHHH~!!!
The giant Kraken fox felt extremely high temperature radiating from Tang Li Xue''s small body, so it reflexively loosened its enormous tentacles before its enormous tentacles got roasted by Tang Li Xue''s deep blue me of Pride.
The surroundingke water let out bubbles as they got boiled in an instant by Tang Li Xue''s deep blue me of Pride!
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue flew out from theke while her silver furry body was shrouded by deep blue mes.
Then she condensed a pair of deep blue [Phoenix Wings] behind her back and used [Sun Dragon sh] to boost her flight speed in an instant like a rocket.
Paired with her [Wings of Freedom]''s speed buff, even the giant Kraken fox could not catch up to Tang Li Xue anymore as she flew extremely swiftly toward the small ind.
''Are you really sure to enter the treasure game on that small ind? Since that huge disgusting fox already waited in thatke, it means that fox would surely enter the treasure game on the small ind too. Do you think we can defeat that fox head-onter?'' The perfect copy asked with a tone filled with hesitation.
''Don''t worry... Even though we might not be able to defeat itter, but I am sure we can retreat safely from it... Well, as long as the ce is not underwater.'' Tang Li Xue replied with an unsure tone.
''What if the treasure game is located underwaterter...'' The perfect copy asked again.
''Then we are really screwed up...'' Tang Li Xue answered.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: ''.....''
Chapter 528: Second Treasure Game Began!
Chapter 528: Second Treasure Game Began!
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to reach the pir of golden light located on the small ind in the middle of theke.
When Tang Li Xuended near the pir of golden light, she immediately re-summoned her perfect copy to her side and instructed her perfect copy to approach the pir of golden light alone.
Unfortunately, there was nothing happened at all, even after Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stood right on the pir of golden light.
Tang Li Xue sighed and said in a disappointed tone: "It seems only the real fox can participate in the treasure game."
"But it all makes sense since there are many other foxes with the clone-type divine ability in this Foxes Hunting Festival, like you or the abomination ck fox. If every fox''s clones could participate in the treasure game, then that abomination ck fox would be the biggest winner." The perfect copy tried tofort Tang Li Xue with a reason.
Tang Li Xue nodded in agreement and added: "Well, that is true! With its clone''s strange abilities to regenerate, divide, and explode, it would be extremely hard to defeat it if anyone could not find the real one."
"So, what do you want to do now? Do you still want to participate in this treasure game? Even if you mustpete against that huge Kraken fox?" The perfect copy asked for Tang Li Xue''s decision.
Tang Li Xue pondered for a few minutes in hesitation.
The strength of the previous huge Kraken fox might really reach the predator level if it was underwater.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue could get away from the huge Kraken fox before because it did not expect Tang Li Xue to have the power of a high-ranking spirit me.
So, Tang Li Xue could catch it off guard and took that chance in an instant to flee away as quickly as she could.
If Tang Li Xue got entangled in its enormous tentacles again in the future, the huge Kraken fox would surely already be prepared, and Tang Li Xue definitely would not be able to get out of its entanglement again.
Unless...
A sh of inspiration crossed Tang Li Xue''s mind as she muttered: "It is not impossible to defeat that huge Kraken fox even if the treasure game is underwater... but the risk might be quite high..."
The perfect copy stared at Tang Li Xue in astonishment and muttered: "You really like to take a high-risk gamble, don''t you?"
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "In this world... No, in any world, every creature would definitely need to take some risk between winning or losing, even dead or alive. Without any guts to take some risk, how can we obtain what we want?!"
Then Tang Li Xue dashed toward the pir of golden light without any hesitation.
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure entered the pir of golden light and disappeared.
At the same time, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also disappeared from there.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes and found herself inside the dark prison.
However, half of this dark prison was submerged in the water.
"So, this is the game space?! Inside the water prison?!" Tang Li Xue murmured while thinking deeply.
Tang Li Xue looked up and saw a countdown number on the ceiling.
[1624]...
[1623]...
[1622]...
"I see... So, I must wait for more than 1600 seconds before the game start... Err, that is around 25 to 30 minutes, right?!" Tang Li Xue said as she nodded in understanding.
When no one replied to her words, Tang Li Xue realized that her perfect copy was automatically un-summoned like before.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Twin Moons] to summon out her perfect copy again.
The perfect copy sighed in relief and uttered with a relieved tone: "At least this is not underwater."
Tang Li Xue approached the metal bars and activated her [Ethereal Form].
She tried to pass through the metal bars by using her [Ethereal Form] but failed.
Tang Li Xue bumped into an invisible wall in her [Ethereal Form], and she could no longer proceed further.
"It looks like we can only wait patiently here until the timer reaches zero..." Tang Li Xue informed her perfect copy.
The perfect copy replied with a solemn: "Yes... but that makes sense since some foxes may put a lot of traps first if they are allowed to move around freely before the game start."
Tang Li Xue nodded and added morements: "It is such a pity... If we can survey this entire ce first and map it with our [Mapping Sense] skill, we will surely hold a lot of advantage when the game starts."
"Speaking about traps, it makes me remember about our talisman. After this treasure game, maybe we should take some time to make some talismans. We might need itter." The perfect copy reminded Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in agreement.
When Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy discussed their strategies and what they needed to doter, the countdown timer finally almost reached zero after more than 26 minutes had passed.
[5], [4], [3], [2], [1], [0]....
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy kept staring at the water prison''s ceiling with a solemn expression.
CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!! CLANG~!!!
After the timer on the water prison''s ceiling reached zero, their prison bars were pulled upward, and the timer changed into a string of words!
[The red arrow will always point toward the treasure box''s location.]
[You have 1 hour to find the treasure box. Thest fox that is holding the treasure box after 1 hour has passed will win the game and get the precious treasure.]
[Have fun, fox cubs! I wish you luck!]
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy stared at each other in bewilderment since the rules of this game werepletely different from the previous game.
Then a small red arrow appeared in front of Tang Li Xue.
But strangely, the small red arrow was pointing at the wall behind Tang Li Xue instead.
"Is this red arrow broken or what? Why the hell is it pointing at the wall?!" The perfect copy frowned deeply and muttered in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue pondered for a few moments and deduced: "Err, I think this red arrow might always point toward the treasure box''s location, but it cannot detect any obstacle or wall. So, we must find the way to the treasure box''s location by ourselves."
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy went out of their water prison and found out that they were actually inside the huge water dungeon.
Since this was a water dungeon, almost all of the ces were half submerged in the water.
Some ces might even bepletely submerged in the water.
There were also a lot of corridors and channels connected to each other.
Tang Li Xue quickly pitched her snout andined with an angry tone: "Yuck~! What kind of water dungeon is this?! It is so smelly! It should be called underground sewer instead!"
The perfect copy resisted her urge to vomit because of the smell and carefully observed the surrounding.
"This might be a much more troublesome location than we thought. Not to mention the unbearable smell, there are also too many corridors and channels. The way to the treasure box would surely be veryplicated. If we are not careful, we can easily get lost." The perfect copymented with a solemn tone.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] once again and tried to pass through the nearby wall, but she failed again as she bumped into another invisible wall.
"Damn it! I cannot even cheat using my [Ethereal Form]! Just so you know, I really hate Dungeon Crawler-type games very much~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs andined in annoyance.
The perfect copy frowned as he approached the nearby wall too, and raised her paw.
[Moon Shattering Strike]!
BBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
The perfect copy''s powerful strike created a loud noise and generated some shockwaves, but it failed to even create a scratch on the wall.
"Despite its dpidated looks, all of these walls are extremely sturdy. It might be infused with the powerful earth element. That may be the reason why our [Ethereal Form] cannot pass through them like a normal wall." The perfect copy added another deduction.
"What makes it even more unbearable is that we must paddle to move around in this smelly water! It is so hard to move or jump around freely here! And also, using me of Pride to fight here would decrease its power by half." Tang Li Xue grumbled in displeasure.
The perfect copy sighed and muttered: "It seems we made a bad choice this time... Like what you have said before, we are really screwed up now."
The perfect copy stared at Tang Li Xue, while Tang Li Xue also stared back at the perfect copy. They were silent for a few moments...
"Hey, it is not my fault, okay?! Who knew the treasure game would be located in an unlucky ce like this!" Tang Li Xue tried to defend herself.
"I have not said anything yet..." The perfect copy replied.
"Our mind is connected with each other. I can read your mind." Tang Li Xue answered again.
The perfect copy: "....."
"Come on~! Cheer up a bit~! At least that huge Kraken fox also cannot move freely in the narrow channel like this, right?!" Tang Li Xue tried tofort her perfect copy.
But after Tang Li Xue said that, the entire water dungeon suddenly shook violently!
RUMBLE~!!! RUMBLE~!!! RUMBLE~!!! RUMBLE~!!! RUMBLE~!!!
Several tentacles went out from different channels and chased after them!
The duration of Tang Li Xue''s [Wings of Freedom] effect was already long over, so her perfect copy activated her [Wings of Freedom] effect instead.
The perfect copy quickly pulled Tang Li Xue with her paws and flew away swiftly from there while shouting with a hateful tone: "I hate your jinx mouth very much~!!!"
Chapter 529: Searching For the Treasure Box!
Chapter 529: Searching For the Treasure Box!
"Hey, this is not my fault, okay?! Who knows that ugly Kraken fox can still use its tentacles to explore this water dungeon!" Tang Li Xue replied with an unyielding tone.
"All right, this is not the right time for us to talk about whose fault it is! Can you think of a good n to get away from those tentacles'' pursuit?" The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and said while skillfully dodging the several Kraken''s tentacles that wanted to catch them.
The perfect copy flew swiftly above the water surface under the [Wings of Freedom]''s effect while pulling the real Tang Li Xue and entering one of the channels randomly.
"Err, let me think for a few moments~! From the book I have read before, each octopus tentacle has hundreds of suckers. This sucker serves as its senses of touch, taste, and smell to feel the surrounding environment and find its prey. Moreover, each of its tentacle function independently as if it has its own brain." Tang Li Xue blurted all the information she knew.
"Holysh*t~! That sounds like a bunch of bad news rather than helpful information!" The perfect copy gnashed her fangs andined.
From their [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could sense that some of those tentacles were still chasing after them!
"Damn it~! They are really persistent! Come on, think something fast~!" The perfect copy whined again while kept flying at high speed.
The path was extremelyplicated, and there were so many intersections.
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not have any free time to carefully ponder which way she needed to go right now, so she could only take a random route.
Sometimes she would take the left path a few times, sometimes she would just take a straight path, and sometimes she would take the right path one or two times...
"Hey, hey, hey~! Stop taking random paths like this~! What if we get lostter?!" Tang Li Xue hastily warned with a flustered tone.
"I am not flying randomly! I deliberately take a detour while following this red arrow, so we can quickly find the treasure box!" The perfect copy answered in a solemn voice.
Unfortunately, the perfect copy bumped into a dead end when she took a left turn!
"Damn it~! I really hatebyrinth!" The perfect copy cursed while gritting her fangs in anger.
When she wanted to turn around, the path behind her was already blocked by several Kraken tentacles!
Tang Li Xue sighed as she entered [Perfect Assimtion] mode again with the Phoenix of Pride while saying: "Sigh... Okay, let''s just stop ying around and destroy them quickly! We still need to split up and find the treasure box before any fox gets it first."
As her silver furry figure was shrouded by deep blue mes, Tang Li Xue condensed a pair of deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back.
She also activated her [Sun Dragon ws] divine ability and condensed a pair of deep blue dragon ws hovering on her left and right side!
"The size of these tentacles is smaller than when we fought in theke. It seems that Kraken Fox could control the size of its tentacles too. I don''t know if the strength of these tentacles would also decrease along with its size or not..." The perfect copy concluded after she saw the group of tentacles in front of her.
Those several tentacles already charged swiftly toward Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy as if they wanted to grab both of them violently.
Tang Li Xue pped her [Phoenix Wings] and rushed forward at high speed while each of her [Sun Dragon ws] grabbed two tentacles to stop their attack!
Meanwhile, her perfect copy already used [Spider Scorpion Transformation]. Her body swelled in an instant and was covered with a thick and hard carapace.
Not only that, but the perfect copy also activated the powerful divine ability she copied from Hei Yinghao!
[Blood Ignition] ¨C Quadruple Amplification Open!
The perfect copy''s overall stats soared once again, especially her agility stat since her [Wings of Freedom]''s buff was still in effect!
Of course, her stamina and energy were also decreasing rapidly.
This [Blood Ignition] divine ability was never intended to be used continuously in battle.
The correct way to use it was only to activate it when the user wanted to use the ultimate one-hit skill to finish the opponent in one move.
But since the perfect copy nned to finish off these tentacles quickly, she could only activate this [Blood Ignition].
The perfect copy''s silver furry figure suddenly vanished as she flew forward extremely swiftly and used one of her [Imperial Moon Dancer]''s battle style moves...
[Moonlight sh]!
While the real Tang Li Xue condensed a dragon head with her deep blue mes of Pride!
[Sun Dragon Fangs]!
The deep blue dragon head opened its jaw filled with sharp teeth and bit down until it tore several tentacles to pieces!
And the perfect copy''s [Moonlight sh] cut the rest of the tentacles into many small pieces!
Tang Li Xue quickly canceled her [Perfect Assimtion] while her perfect copy also turned off her [Blood Ignition] to save some stamina and energy.
Tang Li Xue condensed a flying disc with her [Energy Maniption] divine ability and stepped on it before she plunged into the water below her.
"Let''s split up now, so we can find the treasure box faster." Tang Li Xue instructed her perfect copy.
The perfect copy nodded toward Tang Li Xue and flew swiftly toward the right side.
Tang Li Xue thought for a while and decided to summon out her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], to help her look around theplicated path here.
Her [Golden Winged Serpent] was seriously injured in the previous deadly heavy rain.
Even though it had already recovered a lot, but it still could not fly around quickly like before.
However, it was not a problem since there was a lot of water here!
With its set of skills such as [High Water Affinity], [Greater Water Sense], and so on, the [Golden Winged Serpent] was more proficient in water than any fish.
Tang Li Xue also did not n to use her [Golden Winged Serpent] to fight yet; she only wanted to use it to help her find the right way toward the treasure box.
"Wake up, [Golden Winged Serpent]!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she summoned out her martial soul.
A majestic golden light suddenly shone from Tang Li Xue''s furry body!
The [Golden Winged Serpent] plunged down into the water under Tang Li Xue''s flying disc and swam around happily.
"You can go now! But remember to only swim in the ce where we never go before, so my [Mapping Sense] can record this entire dungeon quicker." Tang Li Xue instructed the [Golden Winged Serpent].
The [Golden Winged Serpent] nodded at Tang Li Xue and dived down, then swiftly swam away from there.
Tang Li Xue''s [Mapping Sense] would automatically record all the ces she ever visited in her mind.
The function was the same as the map in the game.
As long as she could record this entire water dungeon, she would never get lost in here anymore.
.....
Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, and the [Golden Winged Serpent] moved around swiftly to survey theplicated tunnels and paths in this water dungeon.
With the help of Tang Li Xue''s [Mapping Sense], the map of the water dungeon slowly formed in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
But when the map of the water dungeon finished about one-tenth...
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy actually met with another fox!
It was a white fox with ck spots on its body!
As the perfect copy met face to face with this ck-spotted white fox, the ck-spotted of this white fox suddenly shone with blue light!
BWOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
Several ice beams suddenly shot out from the ck spots on its body toward the perfect copy!
"What the...?!" The perfect copy eximed in shock and hastily used her [Energy Maniption] to condense a shield in front of her.
BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
When one of the ice beams struck the perfect copy''s shield, the shield instantly froze into a block of ice, then the second ice beam shattered the shield into pieces!
The perfect copy did not have enough time to condense another shield to protect herself as the third ice beam hit her body and made her freeze into an ice sculpture!
Without any pause, the fourth ice beam struck the perfect copy''s frozen body!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (2/3)]
The perfect copy recovered from the frozen state, but the fifth ice beam hit her again without any mercy and froze her again, then the sixth ice beam hit her body for the fourth time...
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (1/3)]
Just as the perfect copy was almost got hit by the seventh ice beam, she suddenly vanished!
Yes, Tang Li Xue hastily used the [Twin Moons] divine ability to re-summon the perfect copy onto her side!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were speechless, and they stared at each other in astonishment for a while.
The perfect copy gulped her saliva and said with a nervous tone: "Wha... What the hell is wrong with that fox?! How could it be so powerful?! I did not even have enough time to do anything at all!"
Tang Li Xue''s expression became solemn as she muttered: "That fox is definitely on the predator level. Sigh... We are really in big trouble now. I thought that Kraken Fox was already bad enough for us."
"Then what should we do? Should we just give up on this treasure game and wait until the time is up?" The perfect copy asked.
----------------------------------------------
This is the correct second treasure game rules:
[The red arrow will always point toward the treasure box''s location.]
[You have 1 hour to find the treasure box. Thest fox that is holding the treasure box after 1 hour has passed will win the game and get the precious treasure.]
Chapter 530: Three Predator-Level Foxes?!
Chapter 530: Three Predator-Level Foxes?!
Tang Li Xue shook her head unwillingly, but when she wanted to answer her perfect copy''s questions...
Tang Li Xue''s expression became very solemn as she sensed that her [Golden Winged Serpent] also met with some trouble right now!
.....
"ROOOOOAAAAAARRR~!!!"
The loud dragon-like roar echoed through the entire water dungeon when the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s huge scaled body was entangled by the Kraken Fox''s several enormous tentacles.
The [Golden Winged Serpent] tried to struggle to free itself using all of its strength, but it was only a futile effort under the absolute power of the Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles.
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
Cracks began to spread on the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s golden scales armor as the Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles squeezed the [Golden Winged Serpent] violently.
Tang Li Xue hastily summoned the [Golden Winged Serpent] back before it waspletely crushed by the Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles!
The [Golden Winged Serpent] turned into a white sh of light and flew back into Tang Li Xue''s Dantian to recover from its wounds.
"It seems I must find a way to quickly increase the level of [Golden Winged Serpent] soon. Level 8 is clearly too low!" Tang Li Xueined while frowning deeply.
"Looks like those Kraken Fox''s smaller tentacles have faster speed, but they are much weaker than the huge tentacles. It is obviously using the smaller tentacles to find its prey or survey the surrounding." The perfect copy muttered.
Both of them already fought with the Kraken Fox''s smaller tentacles before and felt a bit strange since they could defeat those smaller tentacles easier than they thought.
However, both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy realized now that if those smaller tentacles were like the fingers of the Kraken Fox, then its enormous tentacles were like the burly arms of the Kraken Fox.
They might be able to break the ''fingers'' quite easily before, but if they must face those enormous ''burly arms''ter... Well, the difficulty between the two was apletely different scale...
"Sigh... Damn it~! This is clearly not a game we can win at all! We should not choose this game before!" Tang Li Xue whined while holding her head with her paws.
The perfect copy pped the back of Tang Li Xue''s head with her paw and reminded with an angry tone: "Who the hell said something like ''without any guts to take some risk, how can we obtain what we want'' before, huh?! So, stop whining! It is already toote for you to regret it now! You better use our precious time to think of some good ns!"
"Do you think some good ns can be used to win against 2 Predator ss Foxes?! Stop dreaming!" Tang Li Xue angrily replied.
However, Tang Li Xue''s words triggered a sh of inspiration in their mind at that moment.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy stared at each other in astonishment and muttered in unison: "Wait a minute... Well, that is not impossible at all..."
"I already leave a tracker with [Mapping Sense] on that ck-spotted white fox." The perfect copy gave one more piece of information to Tang Li Xue.
"I know... But that ck-spotted white fox''s attacking type divine ability is too terribly powerful. It is too dangerous for us to even approach that ck-spotted white fox again." Tang Li Xue stated while frowning.
"In short, It is better for us to lure the Kraken Fox toward that ck-spotted white fox instead. So, all we need to do right now is to find the right timing to do it." The perfect copy spoke out her suggestion.
Tang Li Xue nodded in agreement and said: "But we still need to map out this entire water dungeon first with our [Mapping Sense], so we can move around easierter."
When Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy discussed their n in depth, Tang Li Xue realized that the direction of the red arrow had started to move!
"Eh? The small red arrow is moving?! No, someone already found the treasure box!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
The perfect copy also shocked and quickly uttered: "ording to the direction pointed by the red arrow... the fox who obtained the treasure box should not be those two predator-level foxes!"
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy quickly dashed in two different directions again!
Tang Li Xue nned to find the fox who obtained the treasure box, while her perfect copy wanted to find the Kraken Fox to leave a [Mapping Sense]''s tracker on it.
Because Tang Li Xue''s [Golden Winged Serpent] could not use [Mapping Sense] to leave any tracker to Kraken Fox before, so they still did not know the exact location of the Kraken Fox right now.
Of course, they would deliberately avoid the ck-spotted white fox for now.
With [Mapping Sense]''s tracker on the ck-spotted white fox, both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy knew its exact location and where it was heading very clearly.
After a few minutes of flying with a flying disc condensed with her [Energy Maniption], Tang Li Xue finally found another fox this time!
It was an orange fox with spiky furs.
Even though Tang Li Xue was already in her [Ethereal Form], the spiky-furred orange fox could still sense Tang Li Xue!
It turned its head toward Tang Li Xue''s location, but it did not bother to attack Tang Li Xue.
The spiky-furred orange fox turned into an orange sh and disappeared from Tang Li Xue''s vision.
"So fast?! Sigh... Another strongpetitor~!" Tang Li Xue murmured in an aggravation tone.
Tang Li Xue also flew in the same direction since the small red arrow pointed in this direction.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
When Tang Li Xue turned right on the intersection, she heard a loud lightning sound.
There were a few sparks of orange lightning left on the right channel, and the shattered body of a red fox as it turned into a group of white light and was eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned ugly as she whispered in disbelief: "This orange fox is not another predator-level fox, right? There is no way for three predator-level foxes to participate in the same game, right?"
Suddenly, Tang Li Xue had a really bad premonition about this treasure game...
Unfortunately, it was already toote for her to regret it now.
What she could do right now was to try her best.
However, Tang Li Xue quickly halted her flight when she realized that the previous ck-spotted white fox was actually heading toward the treasure box''s direction too.
"Eh, wait... That direction... If that ck-spotted white fox is heading in that direction right now, then it will certainly meet with..." Before Tang Li Xue could finish her words, another loud lightning sound reverberated through the entire channel again.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Thus the ck-spotted white fox met with the spiky-furred orange fox and began to fight against each other...
Tang Li Xue quickly flew further away from there since she did not want to identally get involved in their battle, but she suddenly halted.
"If I can copy that orange fox''s divine ability with my [Mirror of the Moon] divine ability, it will certainly be much more useful to me than the Silly Fox''s [Blood Ignition]!" Tang Li Xue muttered as her topaz blue eyes shone brighter in excitement.
Tang Li Xue had only caught a glimpse of the spiky-furred orange fox''s divine ability before, but she was sure that it had an extremely powerful elemental-type divine ability.
By turning its entire body into lightning, the spiky-furred orange fox could move at lightning speed, and it could also wield the destructive power of the lightning elemental.
"Well, it should be the same as the Raijin Form of Lord En... Cough... I must copy that divine ability whatever it takes!" Tang Li Xue said as she gnashed her fangs in excitement.
Tang Li Xue drove her flying disc and carefully flew back toward the channel where the ck-spotted white fox''s located.
But before she could even approach the channel...
BOOOOOOOOOOMM~!!! BOOOOOOOOOOMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue saw many ice beams shooting past right in front of her eyes, and the pulse of orange lightning was scattering; it was almost hitting her flying disc.
It was so scary that Tang Li Xue suddenly lost her courage to fly further forward.
She did not even enter their corridor yet or see any shadow of those two foxes, but their attacks almost identally hit her several times.
"Err, let''s forget it for now... Finding the treasure box should be my utmost priority now." Tang Li Xue nodded to convince herself as she quickly flew away from there.
There were many channels and corridors here, so Tang Li Xue could quickly find a detour route toward the treasure box''s location.
Strangely, the red arrow pointed toward the treasure box''s location also kept moving.
It seems the fox who held the treasure box also kept moving around.
''Damn it~! This will only make this treasure game much harder than the previous game!" Tang Li Xue cursed while increasing her flying speed.
While Tang Li Xue was ying hide and seek with the fox who held the treasure box, her perfect copy also faced a lot of difficulties in finding the Kraken Fox.
The duration of the perfect copy''s [Wings of Freedom] was already up too, so she could only travel around using a flying disc like Tang Li Xue.
However, the Kraken Fox usually hid in the deep water part of this water dungeon!
"Should I dive deep into the water? But I cannot even move freely underwater! Damn it! You give me another hard task to do!" The perfect copy cursed Tang Li Xue from their mental connection.
Chapter 531: Moving Treasure Box!
"What are you afraid of? You only need to leave a tracker on that Kraken Fox with [Mapping Sense] skill, and I will re-summon you back here quickly!" Tang Li Xue replied to her perfect copy from their mental connection.
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied while shuddering in disgust: "It is really easy for you to say that... I really hate its disgusting slimy tentacles! Especially the countless nauseous sucker holes on its tentacles, it can easily trigger trypophobia!"
"I never told you to touch that Kraken Fox''s body or observe its nauseous tentacles, right?! Stop being so fussy, and just do your job properly!" Tang Li Xue scolded in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue''s mood worsened because she failed to find the fox who was holding the treasure box until now.
The perfect copy could only gnash her fangs as she gritted her resolve and jumped into the water, then dived deeper.
The water in this water dungeon was not clean at all. It was turbid and stunk so badly, like in the sewer.
It was heavy torture for all the foxes in this treasure game since the foxes have a sharp sense of smell!
Deep in the turbid water, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could not see anything at all.
Luckily, she could still sense her surrounding quite clearly with her [Extrasensory Perception].
''It seems that Kraken Fox is not here anymore...'' The perfect copy muttered in her mind when she failed to find the Kraken Fox at the location where the [Golden Winged Serpent] had fought the Kraken Fox before.
Since she failed to find any trace of the Kraken Fox here after looking for five minutes or so, the perfect copy decided to survey the surrounding corridors and channels first.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was still looking for the treasure box until now.
About thirty minutes had almost passed since this treasure game had started.
So, Tang Li Xue only had thirty more minutes left to snatch the treasure box if she wanted to win this treasure game!
"Damn it~! I have not even seen any box yet until now!" Tang Li Xueined while she kept flying toward the direction where the red arrow was pointing at.
Tang Li Xue started to feel that the treasure box was avoiding her instead!
"Eh? Wait a minute... A moving treasure box... is avoiding me..." Tang Li Xue muttered as her mind suddenly caught another important hint.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter like a pair of stars as she blurted: "All of this time, I always thought that another fox had already gotten the treasure box, and then that fox took the treasure box to keep running away from the other foxes..."
"But what if... no fox has found that treasure box yet! It is the treasure box itself that keeps running away to avoid all the foxes from finding it!"
"Yes, this must be right! That was the reason why the rules said that we must find the treasure box and hold the treasure box until the time is up! It is because the treasure box could run or even escape by itself!" Tang Li Xue concluded excitedly.
Then Tang Li Xue''s expression became solemn again as she thought something and said: "Since that treasure box can keep running away from all the foxes, then it means the treasure box could also sense or find the location of all the foxes. Maybe it also has something simr to our red arrow... Sigh, this has be even more troublesome than I thought!"
If the first treasure game was to test the participants''bat power, then this second treasure game should be intended to test their deduction and tracking ability!
At first, Tang Li Xue thought this Foxes Hunting Festival would only test their battle power, but it seems she waspletely wrong.
This Foxes Hunting Festival was clearly not that simple!
"Aisss... This Foxes Hunting Festival is almost the same as the Inheritance Ground Tablet, but only on a much bigger scale! Now I know why Instructor Lan suggested that I should enter the Inheritance Ground Tablet first before." Tang Li Xue contemted while sighing again.
From all of the information that Tang Li Xue deduced, she also managed to think of another important clue.
Since the location of this treasure game was in the dim dungeon that was submerged 60 to 70 percent in the water, the treasure box could probably move freely in the water!
That was the only reason why Tang Li Xue failed to even see that treasure box until now!
Tang Li Xue hastily jumped down from the flying disc and dived deep into the turbid water to find the treasure box.
''Yuck~! Why the hell does the game maker need to make the water in this treasure game so dirty and smelly like this?!'' Tang Li Xueined in her mind and silently cursed the game maker.
But Tang Li Xue immediately found another problem after she dived into turbid water...
She might be able to sense the surrounding quite clearly in this turbid water using her [Extrasensory Perception], but she could not sense or see the red arrow that was pointing at the treasure box here!
''Damn it~! This treasure game is truly a big scam! How the hell can I find the treasure box like this?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in vexation.
When Tang Li Xue had a terrible headache about what she must do to find the treasure box as quickly as she could, her perfect copy suddenly muttered from their mental connection: "Err, I have one good news and one bad news here... Which one do you want to hear first?"
"Stop joking around! we do not have time much time left! Have you already done your job yet? Err... Wait... What the...?!" Tang Li Xue wanted to scold her perfect copy, but when she read her perfect copy''s mind through their mental connection, she was astonished that instant.
"Yes, the good news is I already found the Kraken Fox and left a tracker on its body. It was also too busy doing something, so it did not bother to chase after me." The perfect copy still spoke in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
"Uhh... Well, as for the bad news... the Kraken Fox is currently using its smaller tentacles to chase after a small box... By the way, that small fox is moving extremely fast under the water. Do you think that small box is the treasure box you are currently looking for?" The perfect copy uttered with an awkward tone.
"Please just stop your chatter and quickly follow them closely now! If you dare to lose track of that box, I swear I will make you starve to half-dead for a few months!" Tang Li Xue warned with an angry tone.
"Aye aye, sir~!" The perfect copy replied obediently.
Now, Tang Li Xue was facing another big problem...
There were still around twenty-five more minutes left.
Even if she managed to somehow obtain the treasure box now, could she hold the treasure box while facing the three predator-level foxes and stalling until the time was upter?!
Nope, that was clearly an impossible task to do!
So, there was only one thing she could do right now!
Pit the three of them to fight against each other!
When Tang Li Xue thought of some ns to do it, her perfect copy silently followed the Kraken Fox that was still keep chasing after the small box.
The Kraken Fox''s smaller tentacles could move extremely fast underwater, but surprisingly, the small box could move even faster than them!
Just when the Kraken Fox''s smaller tentacles almost trapped the small box on the wall, the small box actually entered the small hole in the wall and disappeared!
''Sh*t! So, it can escape that way?! No wonder the real me failed to find this box until now!'' The perfect copy thought in astonishment.
"Wha... What the hell?! What if that treasure box kept hiding in the hole until the time was up?! Doesn''t it mean no one can win this game?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in disbelief.
"Uhh, no... It should be impossible, right? I think that treasure box should probably only use this hole as a shortcut to go to another ce, and there might be many more other holes like this one in this entire water dungeon." The perfect copy guessed with an uncertain tone.
Meanwhile, the Kraken Fox became extremely irritable after it lost track of the treasure box just now.
When it sensed the sneaky perfect copy at the corner of the corridor, the Kraken Fox immediately decided to chase after her!
"This damned ugly fox~! Why are you taking out your anger on me when you are the one who cannot catch the treasure box?!" The perfect copy cursed the Kraken Fox in her heart while quickly swimming away from it.
"I already think of a good n. We will execute it now!" Tang Li Xue whispered to her perfect copy from their mental connection and sent the information about her n.
"Just like the small red arrow, that treasure box can also sense the location of all foxes, including me, in the same way. But you are different since you are my perfect copy, so it could not sense your location at all. Well, probably..." Tang Li Xue stated in an unsure tone.
''So, you are not sure yet, right?" The perfect copy muttered doubtfully.
"Yes, but we have no other choice right now. We can only try it. Let''s switch our task now! You will chase the treasure box while I will bait the Kraken Fox toward the other predator-level fox!" Tang Li Xue urged her perfect copy.
"But I do not have the red arrow to point me to the treasure box''s location... How could I find that treasure box alone?" The perfect copyined.
"Don''t worry! I will keep sending the direction of my red arrow to you with our mental connection! You only need to search the treasure box under the water based on the direction given by me!" Tang Li Xue said to her perfect copy with a tone filled with confidence.
While Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy whispered to each other with their mental connection, the Kraken Fox had already arrived right behind the perfect copy!
Just when the Kraken Fox reached its enormous tentacles to catch the perfect copy''s silver furry figure, Tang Li Xue already used the [Swap] skill to exchange position with her perfect copy!
Tang Li Xue awoke the deep blue Phoenix of Pride sleeping in her Dantian and entered [Perfect Assimtion] in an instant!
[Sun Dragon sh]!
Tang Li Xue quickly ignited her deep blue me of Pride as a booster like the rocket and dashed out from the water at extremely high speed!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM~!!!
Chapter 532: Strong Like a Kraken, But Cunning as a Fox!
Chapter 532: Strong Like a Kraken, But Cunning as a Fox!
Tang Li Xue jumped out from the water using her [Sun Dragon sh], but the Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles were still chasing after her closely from behind.
Tang Li Xue decided to get out of the water as quickly as she could because she was really not good at fighting in the water.
Even the power of her me of Pride would decrease by more than half if she fought in the water.
Moreover, it was truly not a wise choice to fight against Kraken Fox in its own domain.
There was a continuous loud sizzling sound as Tang Li Xue''s extremely high temperature deep blue me of Pride touched the surrounding water.
The nearest water to Tang Li Xue evaporated into white vapor in an instant, but most of the surrounding water was boiling and forming countless bubbles.
Tang Li Xue created a pair of deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back, so she could fly above the water.
The Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles were getting closer and closer to her, but she was undaunted even when she was facing the fierce attack from the enormous tentacles!
Tang Li Xue waved both her paws toward the enormous tentacles that whipped toward her!
[me Tiger ws]!
The deep blue mes condensed into tiger ws and collided with the enormous tentacles!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The deep blue tiger ws exploded when they shed against the enormous tentacles.
The deep blue tiger ws only managed to repel away the enormous tentacles but failed to even leave any wound on them.
"Damn it~! These giant tentacles are really much more powerful and tough than the smaller tentacles!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
Well, that was only the first reason...
The second reason was actually because Tang Li Xue''s [me Tiger ws] was already a bit outdated and no longer suitable for the current upgraded me of Pride.
Tang Li Xue''s [me Tiger ws] was created by incorporating the martial art she copied from one of the Immortal Sword Sect''s core disciples, [Crouching Tiger ws], with her me of Pride before.
But the power of this [Crouching Tiger ws] clearly could no longer bring out the true power of the current upgraded me of Pride!
"Tiger, huh... Oh, well... Then I just need to incorporate an even more powerful move with it! How about trying it with my [Tiger Roaring sh] then?! Let''s call it [me Tiger Roaring ws]!" Tang Li Xue murmured after she pondered carefully for a few moments.
When the Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles whipped toward Tang Li Xue again, she immediately condensed another pair of tiger ws with her deep blue me of Pride!
[me Tiger Roaring ws]!
The image of the White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes was condensed behind Tang Li Xue!
ROOOOOOAAAAAAAARRR~!!!
The deafening tiger roar reverberated through the entire nearby channels and corridors!
As the deep blue tiger ws shed toward the enormous tentacles, the extremely high temperature from me of Pride and the destructive vibration force from the [Tiger Roaring sh] blended perfectly and reinforced each other as they pushed the destructive power to a devastating level!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Even Tang Li Xue herself was never expecting that the power of her random newly self-created technique would be so powerful to that level!
The violent explosion and rolling shockwave were throwing Li Xue off several meters upward until she crashed onto the corridor''s ceiling.
Tang Li Xue rubbed her painful head with her paws, but her mood was quite pleasant when she saw two mutted enormous tentacles in amazement.
''Who knows that my new [me Tiger Roaring ws] would be so powerful?! But the energy and stamina consumption also increased by several times... It is clearly not a skill that I can spam continuously like [Fiery Bullets].'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Of course, Tang Li Xue also did not forget to keep sending her red arrow direction to her perfect copy with their mental connection even though she was currently facing the Kraken Fox.
The Kraken Fox''s two mutted enormous tentacles quickly grew back again and restored back to usual in only ten seconds or so!
Tang Li Xue''s expression became solemn as that made her realize the true strength of predator-level foxes.
If the ck-spotted white fox was an offense-type predator-level fox, and the spiky-furred orange fox was a speed-type predator-level fox.
Then this Kraken Fox was a defensive-type predator-level fox!
It has an stic and extremely tough giant body. It also has much faster self-regeneration than Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was quite sure that even the other two predator-level foxes would not be able to kill this monstrous Kraken Fox even if they teamed up to fight against it together.
The Kraken Fox immediately changed its strategy as it raised its other enormous tentacles and started to attack Tang Li Xue from all directions!
Tang Li Xue hastily contacted her perfect copy again: "Have you already found the treasure box yet?!"
"Not yet~! I saw it once just now, but it quickly fled away by entering the small hole in the wall again!" The perfect copy replied to Tang Li Xue.
"Can you please do it quicker?! Stalling time against Kraken Fox is not a joke! If I getpletely exhausted before the time is almost upter, our n would be ruined!" Tang Li Xueined as she pped the deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back to fly further from the Kraken Fox.
However, the enormous tentacles from other directions managed to catch up to Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue swiftly used her [Moon Shattering Strike] against those enormous tentacles while trying to incorporate it with her me of Pride again.
Unfortunately, she failed this time since she felt [Moon Shattering Strike] was notpatible with her deep blue me of Pride.
BBBAAAAAANNGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s small paw struck one of the enormous tentacles and pushed it away!
"Tsk~! It seems [Imperial Moon Dancer] Battle Style is notpatible with me of Pride, so they could not be incorporated." Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue while muttering her conclusion.
Then Tang Li Xue condensed several [Fiery Bullets] and shot them one by one continuously toward the approaching enormous tentacles!
BOOM~!!! BOOM~!!! BOOM~!!! BOOM~!!! BOOM~!!!
The [Fiery Bullets] exploded when it hit the enormous tentacles that surrounded Tang Li Xue!
But small explosions like that could not even leave any scar on the enormous tentacles. It could only slow their movement a bit.
"Uhhhh, there is a piece of bad news... You can try to check the [Mapping Sense]''s tracker." The perfect copy informed Tang Li Xue.
When Tang Li Xue checked her [Mapping Sense]''s tracker, she found out that the ck-spotted white fox was approaching her perfect copy''s location very quickly right now!
"Damn it! Where is that orange fox?! Did it already get defeated by that ck-spotted white fox or something?!" Tang Li Xue groaned in annoyance.
"I do not know! But you should already know that I could not evenst one minute against that ck-spotted white fox before if that fox got the treasure box first, then there would be nothing I can do to snatch it backter." The perfect copymented in frustration.
"All right, I understand! Let''s adjust our n a bit... There are still twenty minutes left before the time is up... We need to stall for twenty more minutes while keep tracking the treasure box''s location... Looks like we have no choice other than trying to pit this Kraken Fox with that ck-spotted white fox." Tang Li Xue pondered carefully her next n.
"It is up to you! Just do something quickly before this ck-spotted white fox can get the treasure box! So, what should I do right now?" The perfect copy asked for further instructions.
Meanwhile, the Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles already gotten used to Tang Li Xue''s [Fiery Bullets], and they could already ignore the [Fiery Bullets], then kept approaching Tang Li Xue swiftly!
"What a terrifying adaptability! This Kraken Fox might be even more monstrous than I thought before!" Tang Li Xue eximed in disbelief.
Tang Li Xue hastily used [Sun Dragon sh] to avoid the enormous tentacles before they could wrap around her.
But suddenly, something the Kraken Fox did somethingpletely unexpected!
PPUUUUUUUUUFFFFFF~!!!
Its huge head actually sprayed high-pressure water onto Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue failed to react since she was too busy keeping on track of every enormous tentacle just now!
The high-pressure water hit Tang Li Xue and pushed her away toward the enormous tentacles instead!
The enormous tentacles swiftly wrapped around Tang Li Xue and squeezed her with the intention to crush her into a meat patty!
"Sh*t~! This is really bad! I truly did not expect that Kraken Fox can still use this kind of move! So, this is what it means by strong like a Kraken, but still cunning as a fox!" Tang Li Xue spoke as she gnashed her fangs in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue did not have any choice other than quickly using her life-saving equipment skill, [Shadow sh]!
When Tang Li Xue used [Shadow sh], her silver furry figure instantly teleported into the shadow on the left side of the corridor.
With that, Tang Li Xue managed to get out of the enormous tentacles'' wrap, but her [Shadow sh] entered ten minutes cooldown, so she could no longer use it again in the next ten minutes!
"All right, I also cannot hold on anymore! This Kraken Fox is getting more and more annoying! Let''s just kiting this Kraken Fox to the treasure location and pit it against that ck-spotted white fox right now!" Tang Li Xue decided while telling her next n to her perfect copy.
Chapter 533: Timely Awaken!
Chapter 533: Timely Awaken!
Actually, Tang Li Xue nned to pit these three predator-level foxes against each other at thest minute, so they would get distracted and waste their time fighting against each other.
While Tang Li Xue herself would hold the treasure box while keep running away from them until the time was up.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s n could not keep up with the current change in the situation at all.
If anyone of the three predator-level foxes managed to get the treasure box first, even Tang Li Xue would not be able to snatch that treasure box from it so easilyter!
Moreover, if the three predator-level foxes fought against each other while snatching that treasure box from each other, Tang Li Xue would no longer have enough strength to participate in that kind of high-level battle.
"In short, the most important part of the n is timing! If the timing is right, then we will have a good chance to win this treasure game. If the timing is off, then we better give up on this treasure game earlier and avoid getting involved in the great battle between the three of them." Tang Li Xue murmured to herself.
"That is right... At least, we would not get eliminated earlier in this Foxes Hunting Festival earlier if we give up on this treasure gameter." Her perfect copy was added to Tang Li Xue.
"So, that is why you must find and catch the treasure box earlier than any fox! Come on, stop ying around and work harder!" Tang Li Xue warned her perfect copy while kept sending the direction of the treasure box''s location to her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue herself was still busily luring the Kraken Fox toward the location of the ck-spotted white fox right now!
After dodging its enormous tentacles'' attacks again, Tang Li Xue nced at the Kraken Fox that was still on the water.
Then she used her paw to pull down one of her eyelids and stick her tongue out toward Kraken Fox to mock it.
Kraken Fox instantly became even more enraged at Tang Li Xue''s provocation!
Kraken Fox used its high-pressure [Water Cannon] toward Tang Li Xue again, but this time, Tang Li Xue was already prepared for it, so she immediately used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge it!
After that, Tang Li Xue quickly used [Sun Dragon sh] to sh away farther from the Kraken Fox and all of its enormous tentacles.
The Kraken Fox hastily chased after Tang Li Xue, and its speed in the water was not slow at all!
Without using [Sun Dragon sh] or [Wings of Freedom]''s effect, Tang Li Xue''s full flying speed was actually slower than Kraken Fox''s swimming speed!
It only took a few seconds for the Kraken Fox, and it already caught up with Tang Li Xue even if she was already flying at full speed with her [Phoenix Wings]!
The Kraken Fox whipped all of its enormous tentacles crazily toward Tang Li Xue to smack her down into the water!
Of course, Tang Li Xue would not want to y into Kraken Fox''s domain since she already guessed that the Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles would also get much faster and stronger in the water.
Tang Li Xue condensed her deep blue me of Pride into a pair of dragon ws this time!
[Sun Dragon ws]!
Different from [me Tiger Roaring ws] which could only be used in one attack and then explode and disappear, her [Sun Dragon ws] couldst much longer in battle, so it could be used to attack and defend.
The [Sun Dragon ws] would remain in the battle until it got destroyed by the enemy, or Tang Li Xue herself dispelled it!
Moreover, Tang Li Xue could wield her [Sun Dragon ws] more flexibly with a defensive technique to block the crazy attacks
from Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
Tang Li Xue spun in mid-air, and her pair of [Sun Dragon ws] also followed her movement!
BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!! BANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue managed to repel all the enormous tentacles, but she was also thrown off more than ten meters back!
Tang Li Xue did not continue to fight with the Kraken Fox and quickly ran away from it again since her objective was only to lure this Kraken Fox to the location of the ck-spotted white fox.
The Kraken Fox also did not give up and kept chasing after Tang Li Xue again!
The Kraken Fox approached Tang Li Xue swiftly, but this time, it made something new.
One of its enormous tentacles suddenly wrapped itself like a giant lump of flesh and punched swiftly toward Tang Li Xue!
"What the hell is this...?!" Tang Li Xue was shocked as she reflexively used her martial art to block them again.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
Tang Li Xue spun with her [Sun Dragon ws], but the result waspletely different from before!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
If the previous enormous tentacles'' attacks were like a boxer''s jab, then right now, the enormous tentacles'' wrapped attacks were like a heavy hammer strike!
Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon ws] could not withstand this attack at all and exploded!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure was thrown off violently until she crashed onto the ceiling heavily and bounced down then fell into water like a rubber ball!
Tang Li Xue''s vision turned dark in that instant, and her consciousness became blurry as she felt her entire body struck heavily by a high-speed giant hammer just now!
As all of her senses became dull, and her mind slowly entered aatose state...
"Wake.....!"
"You.....!"
"Do..... die?!"
Tang Li Xue vaguely heard the voice of her perfect copy from their mental connection...
The Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles were already wrapped around the half-unconscious Tang Li Xue!
CRACK~!!! CRACK~!!! CRACK~!!!
As the Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles squeezed Tang Li Xue tighter and tighter until all of Tang Li Xue''s bones made loud cracking sounds.
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (0/3)]
"Damn it~! Wake up, you idiot~! HOYYYYYYY~!!! We will really get eliminated earlier if you do not wake up now!" The perfect copy kept shouting from their mental connection to wake up Tang Li Xue, but it was all only a futile effort.
The perfect copy started to get despaired.
The perfect copy realized that this was another weakness of [Twin Moons] divine ability...
Their [Swap] skill could only be triggered by the real Tang Li Xue, not the other way around!
So, her perfect copy could not do anything to help the unconscious Tang Li Xue now!
Since her [Wings of Freedom]''s effect already entered cooldown too, it would at least take around five to ten minutes even if she flew at her fastest speed toward Tang Li Xue''s location now by using this flying disc condensed from [Energy Maniption] divine ability.
Five to ten minutes was more than enough for the Kraken Fox to kill Tang Li Xue dozen times!
*Ding!
[Detecting Host is in critical life-threatening condition. (Damage Transfer) skill automatically activated and transferred all of your injuries to the perfect copy!]
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (0/3)]
In only less than ten seconds, the Kraken Fox would have already managed to kill Tang Li Xue twice if not for the [Sun And Moon Aegis] and [Damage Transfer] protecting her from the deadly blows!
"Sigh... Forget it... At least we already tried our best, right? With this, we will not feel any regretter. Urgh... but we will still certainly feel ashamed in front of Instructor Lanter..." The perfect copy sighed andmented in resignation.
Just when the perfect copy closed her topaz blue eyes and waited for [Damage Transfer] skill to trigger when Tang Li Xue received another deadly blow from the Kraken Fox...
BWOOOOOOOOOOSSSHHHH~!!!
Something out of their expectation happened again!
A huge hurricane suddenly appeared and blew away all of the Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles!
After being set free from the enormous tentacles'' entanglement, Tang Li Xue was floating in mid-air with a disbelief expression.
"This powerful wind power is... Yaya?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in shock.
*Ding!
[Divine Possession has been initialized by Yaya!]
Tang Li Xue could sense Yaya''s excited and delighted mood from their mental connection!
"Thank you very much, Yaya! Don''t worry... With your help, my n will have a much higher chance of sess!" Tang Li Xueughed as she replied to Yaya.
After entering [Divine Possession] with Yaya, Tang Li Xue also understood why it took so long for Yaya to awaken its defense-type divine ability after she drank the Sapphire Armored Wasp''s royal jelly.
It was because Yaya did the elemental fusion with [Wind of Kindness] before, so once she awaken the defense-type divine ability, the [Wind of Kindness] would also awaken the defense-type divine ability along with her!
In short, it was the same as Yaya had sessfully awakened two defense-type divine abilities at once!
"Wonderful~! As I expected from my favorite Yaya~!" Tang Li Xue praised Yaya with an excited tone.
When Tang Li Xue wanted to check Yaya''s two newly awakened defense-type divine abilities, the Kraken Fox angrily raised its enormous tentacles andshed them toward Tang Li Xue again!
"Tsk~! How annoying?! Forget it, I will check itter. Now, let''s do it ording to our n! Hey, stop daydreaming and continue doing your job properly, youzybum~!" Tang Li Xueined, then scolded her perfect copy.
"Sigh... I do not even know anymore if you are lucky or unlucky..." The perfect copy replied while sighing in relief.
However, the perfect copy still was obediently chasing after the treasure box as fast as she could ording to Tang Li Xue''s instruction.
Chapter 534: Twelve Minutes Countdown!
With Yaya''s passive agility enhancement divine ability, [Extreme Speed], that superimposed with Tang Li Xue''s passive divine ability, [Super Speed], plus Yaya''s skill, [Fast Flight], Tang Li Xue''s current speed became extremely fast like a st of wind!
Moreover, the enormous tentacles'' rapid angry attacks had be extremely slow and easy to predict in front of Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes]!
([Wind God''s Eyes]: A pair of eyes blessed by the Wind God itself. making these pair of eyes capable of seeing through any kind of movement no matter how fast or deceptive it is and predicting the next few moves urately.)
Tang Li Xue agilely flew right and left to avoid all of the enormous tentacles'' attacks!
Tang Li Xue easily dodged all of the Kraken Fox''s enormous tentacles attacks in a rxed manner.
She did not even activate [Wings of Freedom]''s effect, or use [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] yet!
Even Tang Li Xue herself found it really hard to believe how easily she could dodge these enormous tentacles attacks that gave her such a huge headache before.
Of course, her reaction was normal since it had already been so long since Tang Li Xue entered [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya.
Thest time she used [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya was when she just evolved into [Imperial Sun and Moon Fox] before.
But right now, her divine abilities, overall stats, battle experience, and so on had grown by leaps and bounds, so naturally, Tang Li Xue would also get much more powerful when she entered [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya than before!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... Come on, ugly fox~! Catch me again if you can, you slowpoke~!" Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue and provoked the Kraken Fox again.
Even though Tang Li Xue could easily run away from the Kraken Fox with her current speed in [Divine Possession] mode, but she deliberately slowed down so the Kraken Fox could still barely catch up with her.
But the deep blue Phoenix of Pride started toin to Tang Li Xue from inside her Dantian.
In short, the Phoenix of Pride felt extremely unhappy that Yaya suddenly kicked it out from Tang Li Xue''s body so their [Perfect Assimtion] was automatically canceled before Yaya forced Tang Li Xue to enter [Divine Possession] mode.
"Hey, hey, hey~! Stop fuming like that~! That was really an emergency situation, okay?! So, Yaya did not have any other choice than to do that!" Tang Li Xue said to Phoenix of Pride as she tried to pacify its rage.
Both [Perfect Assimtion] and [Divine Possession] have their own merit.
[Perfect Assimtion] would give unmatched explosive firepower while [Divine Possession] would give unparalleled speed.
But using [Perfect Assimtion] against this the Kraken Fox at this time was clearly an improper choice since Tang Li Xue did not n to fight against this Kraken Fox to death.
Since she nned to lure this Kraken Fox to meet and fight against the other two predator-level foxes, then [Divine Possession]''s unparalleled speed was the best choice!
The Kraken Fox shot high-pressure [Water Cannon] again toward Tang Li Xue to slow down her speed, but Tang Li Xue dodged it by only tilting her furry body to the left side without even looking at it.
''Since Yaya and Phoenix of Pride are already awake from their sleep, it means I can enter [War Goddess Mode] by assimting with both of them, right? Uwehehehe~ I think it should not be impossible to win against one or two predator-level foxes if I enter [War Goddess Mode], right?'' Tang Li Xue pondered happily as her confidence started to inte.
"Sigh... Please, stop thinking of a dangerous thing like that~! Both Yaya and Phoenix of Pride have also be a lot stronger than before, so the energy consumption in [War Goddess Mode] should be many more times than before. Do you want to pass out in exhaustion again like yesterday?!" The perfect copy reminded Tang Li Xue with a harsh tone.
"Err... We still have [Essence Devouring Technique], right? Can''t we cover the energy consumption in [War Goddess Mode] by using it?" Tang Li Xue asked as she felt a bit unwilling.
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "We only practiced... No, you never even practiced [Essence Devouring Technique] by yourself~! I only practiced it for a few days before the Foxes Hunting Festival begin and could only barely reach the entry level. How much energy do you think the entry level [Essence Devouring Technique] can absorb from enemies?"
Tang Li Xue: "....."
''Well, just forget it for now...'' Tang Li Xue muttered in her heart.
The Kraken Fox tried every means to catch or slow down Tang Li Xue, but all of them were futile because Tang Li Xue could easily avoid them all.
After five minutes or so had passed, the Kraken Fox failed to even touch Tang Li Xue''s fur, but they finally arrived at the corridor near the ck-spotted white fox!
Just when Tang Li Xue lured the Kraken Fox to turn at the intersection, the ck-spotted white fox suddenly shot many ice beams toward Tang Li Xue and Kraken Fox!
BOOM~!!! BOOM~!!! BOOM~!!! BOOM~!!! BOOM~!!!
Even with Tang Li Xue''s speed in [Divine Possession] mode, she faced a lot of difficulty to avoid these ice beams!
Her [Wind God''s Eyes] could see every ice beam clearly and predict their trajectory, but her speed was actually much slower than these ice beams!
"Damn it~!" Tang Li Xue cursed as she gritted her fangs in anger.
Since she could not avoid them, she hastily used [Hurricane Barrier] instead to block them!
A hurricane pir was instantly created with Tang Li Xue in its center!
When the ice beams struck the hurricane pir, the extreme coldness instantly spread on the hurricane, and Tang Li Xue''s [Hurricane Barrier] was frozen into a huge ice pole!
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~! BBAAAAAAAAAAAANNNG~!!!
The huge ice pole shattered into countless ice dust!
However, Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure was already disappeared from there!
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step]!
Tang Li Xue''s movement speed increased even more as she swiftly retreated further from the ck-spotted white fox.
Her perfect copy already faced this ck-spotted white fox before, so she knew really well that its ice beams were not only powerful but it could also shoot continuously without any pause!
However, the Kraken Fox''s fate was even more miserable than Tang Li Xue''s.
Many of its enormous tentacles were frozen by the ice beams.
The Kraken Fox could only use its other tentacles to destroy the ice on its frozen tentacles, but its frozen tentacles were actually shattered to countless crystal dust instead.
Although the Kraken Fox could regenerate them again in less than ten seconds, the Kraken Fox could still feel the pain and the coldness of freezing and losing its limbs.
The Kraken Fox disregarded Tang Li Xue and stared at the ck-spotted white fox full of anger and hatred instead right now.
The Kraken Fox whipped its enormous tentacles toward the ck-spotted white fox from different directions!
But the ck-spotted white fox was clearly not so easy to bully like Tang Li Xue, and it immediately retaliate by shooting many ice beams from the ck spots on its body!
Tang Li Xue swiftly retreated farther again from them, and let them fight against each other even more fiercely!
When Tang Li Xue sneered mockingly at them, her perfect copy contacted Tang Li Xue again from their mental connection.
"Err... I have one good news and one bad news... Which one do you want to hear first?" The perfect copy muttered with a solemn tone.
"Again with this routine?! Stop joking around! Have you got the treasure box yet?! Wait a minute... Damn it~! Why the hell is your luck so bad?!" Tang Li Xue scolded her perfect copy in annoyance, but when she read her perfect copy''s mind through their mental connection, she became speechless at her perfect copy''s bad luck in that instant.
Even though, Tang Li Xue probably already knew about them since she could read her perfect copy''s mind, the perfect copy still chose to say to Tang Li Xue: "Uh, well... The good news is I already find the treasure box..."
"As for the bad news... the treasure box is currently in the hand of that spiky-furred orange fox right now." The perfect copy uttered with a helpless tone.
"I am really sorry... I saw the treasure box first, but that orange fox came suddenly from the opposite corridor and managed to grab the treasure box earlier than me. I cannot match its extremely fast speed at all." The perfect copy apologized to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue hastily used the [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy, and then she used [Twin Moons] divine ability to re-summon her perfect copy to her side.
Tang Li Xue saw the spiky-furred orange fox already sensed her presence when she used [Swap] skill just now, so it stared at Tang Li Xue vigntly while hugging the treasure box tighter.
"Don''t worry! There are still less than twelve minutes left before the time is up... It should be enough for us to snatch that treasure box..." Tang Li Xue muttered with a solemn tone to her perfect copy.
BUZZ~!!! BUZZ~!!! BUZZ~!!!
Sparks of orange lightning spread on the spiky-furred orange fox''s body as it turned around and turned into a sh of orange lightning!
[Wings of Freedom]''s effect activated!
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step]!
Tang Li Xue''s furry figure also turned into a silver sh as she quickly chased after the spiky-furred orange fox!
At the same time, Tang Li Xue also activated another divine ability just when the spiky-furred orange fox transformed itself into a sh of orange lightning!
[Mirror of the Moon] activated!
[Copy Start]!
Name: [Lightning Form]!
Type: Divine Ability
[Copy Completed]!
Chapter 535: Lightning Speed Battle!
Chapter 535: Lightning Speed Battle!
Even though Tang Li Xue''s speed was already extremely fast, like a gust of wind, but the speed of the spiky-furred orange fox was much faster than Tang Li Xue''s since it transformed into a streak of orange lightning!
In a blink of an eye, the spiky-furred orange fox was already more than ten meters further from Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue also did not hesitate to use the divine ability she copied from this spiky-furred orange fox just now!
[Lightning Form]!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure instantly transformed into a streak of silver lightning!
The perfect copy was also used [Lightning Form] simultaneously with Tang Li Xue!
Two shes of silver lightning and one sh of orange lightning were chasing after each other from one corridor to another corridor!
Then the orange lightning turned to the left side and entered the narrow channel without even decreasing its speed at all!
But Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were different, they just copied [Lightning Form] only a few moments ago.
Both of them did not even have any time to familiarize themselves with this [Lightning Form], so they clearly could not control this [Lightning Form] as good as the spiky-furred orange fox.
"Damn it~! I cannot..." The perfect copy cursed, but before she could finish her words, one of the two silver streaks of lightning struck the solid wall in front of her.
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
After the perfect copy in her [Lightning Form] struck the solid wall, she turned back into her normal fox form.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue could barely turn to the left side and keep up with the spiky-furred orange fox.
BUZZ~!!! BUZZ~!!! BUZZ~!!!
However, her silver sh of lightning rubbed harshly onto the wall as she almost crashed onto the wall too like her perfect copy!
"Sh*t~! That was a close one~!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she sighed in relief.
Honestly, if not for [Extreme Speed], [Super Speed], and [Wings of Freedom]''s effect that increased her reaction speed by many times, and [Wind God''s Eyes] which grant her the ability to see the surrounding clearly even in this [Lightning Form], then Tang Li Xue would also crash onto the wall like her perfect copy.
High-grade divine abilities like this orange fox''s [Lightning Form], Silly Fox''s [Lightning of Destruction], or Instructor Mei Lan''s [Demonic Tune] need an extremely high level of control to wield it properly, so they could show their true power.
Meanwhile, it took a lot of practice to reach a high level of control to wield it properly!
That was the reason why Tang Li Xue rarely copied Silly Fox''s [Lightning of Destruction] or Instructor Mei Lan''s [Demonic Tune] with her [Mirror of the Moon] before.
When Tang Li Xue copied and used the [Lightning Form] from this orange fox, she once again realized the shoring of her [Mirror of the Moon].
''Tsk~! I should think about how to cover this [Mirror of the Moon]''s shoringster after this Foxes Hunting Festival is over. Since this weakness might be quite fatal in a life and death battle in the future...'' Tang Li Xue thought in her heart.
Of course, that was the problem to solveter.
Tang Li Xue''s only task right now was to snatch the treasure box from the spiky-furred orange fox before the time was up!
Her perfect copy activated [Lightning Form] again, then turned into a streak of lightning to catch up with Tang Li Xue and the spiky-furred orange fox.
Unfortunately, it was already toote.
In only a few seconds, both Tang Li Xue and the spiky-furred orange fox were already several channels away from the perfect copy!
Two lightning streaks, orange lightning and silver lightning, were keep chasing each other!
Tang Li Xue was currently a bit faster than the spiky-furred orange fox because she was still in [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya!
Tang Li Xue as a sh of silver lightning managed to catch up with the orange sh of lightning, but the spiky-furred orange fox skillfully took a sudden right turn and entered the narrow channel on the right side.
Tang Li Xue hastily slowed down and also took a right turn toward the narrow channel on the right side, but it made her fall behind the spiky-furred orange fox by one or two breaths!
The spiky-furred orange fox cleverly took a few twists and turns across several narrow channels leaving Tang Li Xue further and further behind!
This was Tang Li Xue''s first lightning-speed battle, so she was clearly not used to this yet.
''Damn it~! This is bad... The current energy consumption is much more rapid than I thought! Moreover, the lightning-speed battle like this is wearing me down physically and mentally!'' Tang Li Xue concluded with a solemn expression.
One single mistake or deviation could make Tang Li Xue crash onto the wall, ceiling, or the water below, and it would slow down her a lot!
Thankfully, her [Auto Correction] divine ability could cover all tiny mistakes or deviations Tang Li Xue made until now, so she could still barely chase after the spiky-furred orange fox.
But still... The pressure Tang Li Xue received in [Lightning Form] was not small, and she also could not even breathe when she was moving around in [Lightning Form]!
Only less than three minutes had passed since the spiky-furred orange fox got the treasure box and ran away, but Tang Li Xue felt as if it was already three days.
''Calm down, Tang Li Xue~! Be patient and the right timing will certainlye...'' Tang Li Xue thought to calm down her anxious heart when she saw the spiky-furred orange fox getting farther away from her.
Just when the orange streak of lightning took another turn to the left corridor, another silver lightning suddenly came in the opposite direction!
"UUURRRYYAAAAAAAAHHH~!!!" The perfect copy shouted as she gritted her fangs.
She charged toward the orange lightning while still in the form of silver lightning, with the intention to crash head-on onto the spiky-furred orange fox!
The spiky-furred orange fox was startled. It failed to sense the perfect copy because she activated [Art of Concealment] to cover her trace, breath, and aura.
''Woahhhh~!!! Good job~!'' Tang Li Xue encouraged her perfect copy in astonishment from behind with their mental connection.
The spiky-furred orange fox might be taken aback, but it did not panic at all since it already faced this kind of simr situation many times before.
Just when the silver lightning almost crashed into it, the surrounding speed suddenly slowed down a lot and entered slow motion in the spiky-furred orange fox''s vision, then it calmly shed in the zigzag pattern without even slowing down its speed!
It managed topletely avoid Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy without being touched at all!
After the spiky-furred orange fox easily dodged and passed, the perfect copy came toward Tang Li Xue instead right now!
"Tsk, you are so useless~!" Tang Li Xue ridiculed her perfect copy mercilessly.
The perfect copy: "....."
When her perfect copy almost crashed into Tang Li Xue, Tang Li Xue hastily un-summoned her using [Twin Moons] divine ability so they would not crash onto each other.
Then she summoned her perfect copy again while giving instructions with their mental connection: "That orange fox is too fast. At this rate, we will never catch up to it! Try to slow him down again. This time, try to use [Energy Maniption] instead."
Despite doing all of those, Tang Li Xue also did not slow down her speed since she did not want to get further from the spiky-furred orange fox.
Tang Li Xue started to ponder deeply: ''I am clearly faster than it in the straight path, but I need to slow down each time I turn... Strange, howe it did not slow down every time it turns?''
''Because its control over [Lightning Form] is much better than mine? But that zigzag dodge is a brilliant move... Doing that without slowing down its speed should be impossible, but that orange fox could do it so easily just now!''
''I see... There is only one reason left. That orange fox should have another divine ability that can be used perfectly with this [Lightning Form]. Just like Instructor Lan''s [Demonic Tune] and [Heavenly Sound]!'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
However, that was not Tang Li Xue''s current biggest problem...
Tang Li Xue''s biggest problem was that her current stamina and energy could onlyst for another three or four more minutes!
But there were still around seven more minutes left right now before the time was up!
Meanwhile, the perfect copy analyzed the spiky-furred orange fox''s current route from the [Mapping Sense]''s tracker that she had already secretly put on the spiky-furred orange fox before.
Since she wanted to build a trap with [Energy Maniption] and catch the spiky-furred orange fox off guard like before, the perfect copy needed to guess the orange fox''s next route first.
while Tang Li Xue was getting more and more anxious when the spiky-furred orange fox was getting farther from her with every turn, so she decided to make an earlier move!
[Shadow sh]!
Just as the spiky-furred orange fox took another turn, Tang Li Xue suddenly teleported to the shadow right in front of the orange lightning!
In that instant, the sh of silver lightning met face-to-face against the sh of orange lightning!
When the streak of orange lightning used another zigzag move to dodge the silver lightning, the silver lightning also turned around and followed the orange lightning!
CRACK~!!! CRACK~!!! BUZZ~!!! BUZZ~!!! BUZZ~!!!
The silver lightning and the orange lightning were shing and flying side by side while making a loud lightning friction sound!
Chapter 536: Another Trump Card Released!
Chapter 536: Another Trump Card Released!
Silver and orange lightning sparks were scattered everywhere in the corridor as the silver lightning and the orange lightning kept colliding violently with each other while running from one corridor to another corridor!
Each time the spiky-furred orange fox wanted to turn and enter the nearby narrow channel, Tang Li Xue would deliberately collide with the orange fox to make it deviate from its trajectory.
Normally, the spiky-furred orange fox would definitely crash onto the wall because of Tang Li Xue''s moves, but the spiky-furred orange fox could still quickly fix its trajectory and flew forward instead.
The spiky-furred orange fox wanted to get away from Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue kept sticking persistently to it!
Tang Li Xue actually wanted to take this chance to quickly snatch the treasure box from the spiky-furred orange fox, but it was not that easy since the spiky-furred orange fox was already very vignt.
Both Tang Li Xue and the spiky-furred orange fox entered the stalemate since they could not do anything to each other at this moment.
This spiky-furred orange fox was undoubtedly a predator-level fox, but why it faced so much difficulty when facing Tang Li Xue? Why it could not beat Tang Li Xue like the other predator-level foxes?
The answer was because this spiky-furred orange fox has extremely badpatibility with Tang Li Xue''s [Mirror of the Moon] divine ability.
The spiky-furred orange fox''s [Lightning Form] was definitely an extremely powerful divine ability.
But when Tang Li Xue copied it with [Mirror of the Moon] and transformed into a sh of silver lightning with [Lightning Form], she became immune to all lightning attacks!
That was also why they entered a stalemate right now...
Because they could not do anything to each other while both of them were still in [Lightning Form]!
In short, if Tang Li Xue did not copy the orange fox''s [Lightning Form], she would certainly have been electrocuted to death by the orange fox right now!
''Damn it~! This situation is not good at all! I will bepletely exhausted even sooner at this rate!'' Tang Li Xue thought nervously.
''Sigh... If only I can buy [Stamina Pill] from System, this problem can be easily solved.'' Tang Li Xuemented silently in her heart.
Unfortunately, the price of [Stamina Pill] in the system''s mall was 1,000 Deity Coins, but Tang Li Xue only has around 600 Deity Coins right now.
The spiky-furred orange fox seemed to get very annoyed by Tang Li Xue''s sticky action, and it started to do something iprehensible!
The spiky-furred orange fox shed in a zigzag trajectory again, but this time, it used this move to strike Tang Li Xue which kept sticking to it!
CRACKLE~!!! BOOOOOMM~!!! CRACKLE~!!! BOOOOOMM~!!!
''This damned fox?! So, you want to y rough right now?! All right, then I will y with you!'' Tang Li Xue thought in anger as she gnashed her fangs.
Tang Li Xue in her [Lightning Form] as the silver streak of lightning started to spin in a zigzag pattern!
BOOOOOMM~!!! BOOOOOMM~!!! BOOOOOMM~!!!
Silver lightning and orange lightning were traveling across one corridor to another; they were colliding against each other again and again while spinning in a zigzag trajectory!
When they busily fought against each other, they failed to realize that they already reached the end of thisst corridor, and there was only a solid wall in front of them!
''Sh*t~!!!'' Tang Li Xue and the spiky-furred orange fox cursed at the same time.
The spiky-furred orange fox activated its other divine ability, and its surrounding environment suddenly entered a slow motion for the orange fox alone, then it swiftly took a sharp turn!
However, Tang Li Xue clearly could not do the same clean sudden sharp turn in the [Lightning Form] as the orange fox!
Just when Tang Li Xue almost crashed onto the solid wall...
"UOOOOGGHHHH~! [Cyclone Storm], go~!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she hastily used one of Yaya''s strongest moves, [Cyclone Storm]!
With the help of [Cyclone Storm], Tang Li Xue suddenly did a U-turn right before she crashed into the wall by using the rotation of [Cyclone Storm]!
Normally, Tang Li Xue in [Lightning Form] would spin continuously after she entered the [Cyclone Storm], but she cleverly used Yaya''s [Wind Control] to dispel [Cyclone Storm] at the right time after she took a U-turn.
But it was still not the time for Tang Li Xue to feel relieved since her energy was drained faster after she used [Cyclone Storm] just now!
Moreover, the spiky-furred orange fox managed to get away from Tang Li Xue, and it also get a few meters ahead of her right now!
Tang Li Xue began to feel despaired...
She could onlyst another minute before she waspletely exhausted, while [Shadow sh] was still in about eight minutes cooldown...
Honestly, Tang Li Xue did not have any more trump cards she could use to catch up with the spiky-furred orange fox and snatch the treasure box from it...
Of course, Tang Li Xue could still use her [Regalia of Eclipse], but Instructor Mei Lan already secretly told her to never use it in this Foxes Hunting Festival before.
Tang Li Xue did not know if there were any powerful elder foxes secretly supervising this treasure game, so she did not dare to use her [Regalia of Eclipse] carelessly.
Because Tang Li Xue would certainly be forced to join Qing Qiu Tribe''s faction if any elder foxes knew that she already awakened her Regalia while she was still a demonic beast or [Umon]-grade beast.
''Sigh... Forget it~! Even though we lost this treasure game, but at least, we are not eliminated from the Foxes Hunting Festival, right?'' Tang Li Xue tried tofort herself.
When Tang Li Xue decided to give up on this treasure game, her perfect copy suddenly gave a shocking suggestion.
''Don''t give up yet~! We still have another trump card, right? Did you forget about that?!'' The perfect copy uttered to Tang Li Xue from their mental connection.
''You... Are you sure that we really need to use that?! If I use that then you will...'' Tang Li Xue asked back in hesitation.
''I do not mind it at all! You can use it now! As long as we win this game, so what if I ''die'' for nine nights!'' The perfect copy encouraged Tang Li Xue again.
Yes, Tang Li Xue still has one morest trump card in [Twin Moons] divine ability that she never used until now!
[Merge]: Merge the perfect copy with the user. Doubled the user''s overall stats in an instant for 1 hour! (The copy needs to be sacrificed to activate this ability.)
(If the perfect copy is destroyed or sacrificed, the user will need to take the moonlight bath for 9 nights to recover it.)
Tang Li Xue pondered carefully for a few moments.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue really did not want to use this [Merge] skill since sacrificing her perfect copy for one mere precious treasure was not worth it in Tang Li Xue''s opinion.
Tang Li Xue felt that she could survive in the Foxes Hunting Festival until now because of her perfect copy.
Without the [Swap] skill and [Damage Transfer] skill with her perfect copy, she would already get eliminated much earlier from this Foxes Hunting Festival!
''You are really stupid~! You just need to hide for nine nights and wait until I recoveredter! Now, stop hesitating and use it before it is toote!'' The perfect copy warned Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs while strengthening his resolve!
Her energy and stamina could onlyst for another ten seconds, so she did not have any more time to hesitate!
Tang Li Xue hastily activated the [Merge] skill!
At that moment, the perfect copy instantly vanished as she merged into one with Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue could feel her almost exhausted stamina and energy recover more than half in an instant!
Not only her overall stats were doubled, but all of her divine abilities, skills, martial arts, and so on became twice more powerful in this [Merge] mode!
Even her thinking speed had increased by two times while the surrounding speed felt slower by half!
[Divine Possession] mode with Yaya plus the [Merge] mode with her perfect copy!
Tang Li Xue felt that she could even beat and rub the Kraken Fox and the orange fox to the ground!
Even the rainy aqua fox and abomination ck fox... Err, forget it... These two foxes were much more troublesome than the Kraken Fox and the orange fox.
"There are only less than three minutes left before the time is up! But that is more than enough for me!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she suddenly increased her speed.
The silver streak of lightning easily caught up with the orange streak of lightning that was ten meters in front of it!
The spiky-furred orange fox was extremely shocked by Tang Li Xue''s sudden increase in speed.
But the spiky-furred orange fox did not panic as it swiftly turned to the right on the intersection!
It seems the spiky-furred orange fox wanted to use its previous trick to shake Tang Li Xue off.
Unfortunately, the current Tang Li Xue was already on a different levelpared to the previous Tang Li Xue.
When the streak of orange lightning shed toward the right side, the streak of silver lightning suddenly pushed the orange lightning forcefully!
The spiky-furred orange fox''s changed into disbelief as if it was saying: ''Impossible! How could this fox suddenly be so strong?!''
Tang Li Xue sneered mockingly as she kept pushing the orange lightning onto the wall and rubbing it along the corridor''s wall!
CRACKLE~!!! CRACKLE~!!! BUZZ~!!! BUZZ~!!!
The orange lightning made a loud crackling sound as the orange lightning was scattering on the right side of the wall and fell onto the water below.
Chapter 537: Fierce Battle to the Last Second!
Chapter 537: Fierce Battle to the Last Second!
When Tang Li Xue as a streak of silver lightning was rubbing and dragging the orange lightning along the corridor''s wall, the orange lightning tried to struggle free from the silver lightning''s grasp!
However, it was only a futile effort since the spiky-furred orange fox simply could not match Tang Li Xue that already be twice faster and more powerful than before.
After a few moments of intense struggle, Tang Li Xue felt the spiky-furred orange fox''s resistance be weaker, so she swiftly pushed the orange lightning downward onto the water below!
CRACKLE~!!! CRACKLE~!!! CRACKLE~!!! BOOOOOOOOOMM~!!!
As it made contact with the turbid water below them, the orange lightning was spreading on the entire water of the corridor as it made rapid crackling sounds and exploded!
The spiky-furred orange fox''s [Lightning Form] was dispelled, and it turned back from a streak of orange lightning into its usual fox form.
Tang Li Xue also canceled her [Lightning Form] and plunged into the water, then quickly swam toward the spiky-furred orange fox.
Just as Tang Li Xue forcefully grabbed the treasure box from the spiky-furred orange fox''s grasp, the spiky-furred orange fox suddenly opened its eyes again and turned back into its orange [Lightning Form]!
''This damned fox still has not given up yet~?! All right, if you want to get beaten so badly, bring it on!'' Tang Li Xue angrily thought as she also turned into her silver [Lightning Form]!
Orange lightning and silver lightning began their second round of battle under the water!
BUZZ~!!! CRACKLE~!!! CRACKLE~!!!
Orange lightning and silver lightning spread and dyed the water on the entire corridor with their blinding color of light!
Unlike in the air, the lightning in the water would spread out all over the water, which acts as a conductor.
Thus, the stamina and energy of both Tang Li Xue and the spiky-furred orange fox would be drained extremely fast when they transformed into their [Lightning Form] in the water!
But Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice right now since she would be electrocuted to death in the water if she did not transform into [Lightning Form] right now!
Only if she transformed into her [Lightning Form] that she would be immune to any lightning attack.
This spiky-furred orange fox clearly knew that it could no longer win against Tang Li Xue fairly after she used her [Merge] mode, so it decisively nned to exhaust Tang Li Xue by luring her into the water just now!
Of course, it was a gamble... No one knew whether the orange fox or Tang Li Xue will bepletely exhausted first!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue already grabbed the treasure box from the spiky-furred orange fox, but the spiky-furred orange fox was still holding the treasure box very tightly and nned to snatch it back.
Under the turbid water, orange lightning and silver lightning were struggling violently against each other to seize the treasure box!
BUZZ~!!! CRACKLE~!!! BUZZ~!!! CRACKLE~!!!
The time countdown has reached thest minute, but Tang Li Xue and the spiky-furred orange fox would never give up until thest moment!
''Sh*t~! This is not good~! Fighting against this damned orange fox under the water like this is a losing game!'' Tang Li Xue quickly realized.
Tang Li Xue who had a huge upper hand when she faced the orange fox in the air before was actually struggling to fight it in the water!
The reason was because Tang Li Xue did not have any experience in fighting underwater while she was in [Lightning Form], so her control over her [Lightning Form] was weakened by so much.
Tang Li Xue did not want to continue to keep struggling against the orange fox under the water like this, so she decisively used Yaya''s other powerful skill!
[Vacuum sh]!
Tang Li Xue only nned to disperse the surrounding water with this [Vacuum sh], but something unexpected was actually happening...
The spiky-furred orange fox in her orange [Lightning Form] was actually torn apart under Tang Li Xue''s [Vacuum sh] along with the surrounding water!
When the turbid water in the corridor was still split in two, Tang Li Xue took this chance to grab the treasure box and flew away quickly from there!
Of course, the spiky-furred orange fox did not die or get eliminated yet.
Tang Li Xue''s [Vacuum sh] could only momentarily break the spiky-furred orange fox''s orange [Lightning Form].
It only took a few seconds for the orange lightning to recover back to normal, but these few seconds were enough for Tang Li Xue to get away quite far from the spiky-furred orange fox.
Tang Li Xue was very excited right now as she was shing away extremely quickly from one corridor to another in her silver [Lightning Form].
There were only about twenty or thirty seconds left before the time was up...
But just when Tang Li Xue thought that she would certainly win this treasure game...
The ck-spotted white fox suddenly flew out from the left corridor channel and met face-to-face with Tang Li Xue!
''Damn it~! Why the hell this ugly white fox can appear here right at thisst moment?!'' Tang Li Xue groaned while gnashing her fangs in anger.
The ck-spotted white fox did not hesitate and instantly shot its many ice beams from the ck spots on its body toward Tang Li Xue when Tang Li Xue got closer to it!
Tang Li Xue did not have the orange fox''s divine ability that could make its surroundings enter slow-motion mode, so it was also impossible for her to dodge so many ice beams like the orange fox.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only dispel her [Lightning Form] and use a defensive skill to defend herself from the ck-spotted white fox''s barrage attacks!
[Hurricane Barrier]!
BWOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
A violent hurricane suddenly appeared around Tang Li Xue as its center!
BOOOMM~!!! BOOOMM~!!! BOOOMM~!!!
Many ice beams struck the violent hurricane barrier and froze it into a huge pir of ice, then that huge pir of ice shattered to countless ice dust under the barrage of ice beams!
When the [Hurricane Barrier] was broken, countless silver-furred foxes were pouring out in that instant and running away in all directions!
[Multiple Wind Clones] plus [Water Mirage]!
''Where is that useless Kraken Fox?! Don''t tell me that Kraken Fox is already kicked the bucket because of this damned white fox?!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue already tried to use her [Mirror of the Moon] to copy this ck-spotted white fox''s divine ability just now, but unfortunately, it failed!
Tang Li Xue also did not understand why it could fail, maybe because she did not have any ck spots on her body?!
Anyway, she only need to stall for ten more seconds or so, then she could win this treasure game!
However, the ck-spotted white fox was clearly not unwilling to let Tang Li Xue win just like that!
The ck spots on its body suddenly shone brighter in cold blue light that make the entire corridor covered in a thickyer of frost!
All of Tang Li Xue''s [Multiple Wind Clones] and [Water Mirage] clones were frozen in that instant!
All of Tang Li Xue''s clones crumbled and disappeared when they were frozen by the cold blue light leaving only the real Tang Li Xue alone!
Then the ck-spotted white fox opened its mouth wide toward Tang Li Xue!
[Ice st Cannon]!
A huge pir of cold blue light shot toward the frozen Tang Li Xue!
At thest second before the [Ice st Cannon] hit Tang Li Xue...
Tang Li Xue finally decided to use its final trump card!
*Ding!
[The user has entered perfect synchronization with Yaya and Phoenix of Pride!]
[Entering War Goddess Mode!]
[War Goddess Mode] with Yaya and Phoenix of Pride, plus [Merge] skill with her perfect copy!
This was Tang Li Xue''s current strongest form!
The surrounding thickyer of ice was instantly melted by the extreme heat emitted by the deep blue mes that shrouded Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The [Ice st Cannon] managed to strike Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue already condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and easily blocked the [Ice st Cannon] using her [Sun Dragon ws]!
The ck-spotted white fox did not continue to attack Tang Li Xue again.
It finally stared at the current Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression as if it faced a formidable opponent.
At this time, the orange fox was alsoing swiftly toward Tang Li Xue in its orange [Lightning Form]!
Tang Li Xue also stared angrily at the ck-spotted white fox and the spiky-furred orange fox!
When the ck-spotted white fox and the spiky-furred orange fox wanted to attack Tang Li Xue to forcefully snatch the treasure box from her, and Tang Li Xue wanted to attack them too to vent her anger...
[00:00]
WEEEEEEEENGGG~!!!
When the time was up, all of the surviving foxes were covered in white light and kicked out from the water dungeon, and teleported back to Treasure Ind!
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes, and she found herself already on the side of theke.
Just like before, all of the surviving foxes would be teleported randomly hundreds of meters around the previous pir of the golden light.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue was almostpletely exhausted right now, so she hastily transformed into silver [Lightning Form] and flew away from there as quickly as she could.
After flying a few hundred miles away, Tang Li Xue dispelled her [Lightning Form] and used [Spider Scorpion Transformation] to dig a tunnel underground to hide!
The treasure box in her grasp could not be opened in the water dungeon before, but it could already be opened right now.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have any free time to care about that treasure box for now.
After digging a deep tunnel, Tang Li Xue finally could not bear it anymore as her [War Goddess Mode] was automatically canceled.
Tang Li Xue hadpletely exhausted and fell into a deep sleep instantly.
Both Yaya and the deep blue Phoenix of Pride also copsed in exhaustion.
Yaya fell asleep on the top of Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body.
While Phoenix of Pride entered Tang Li Xue''s Dantian and fell asleep under the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl], so it could recover faster.
Chapter 538: Suffering Terrible Backlash!
Chapter 538: Suffering Terrible Bacsh!
Tang Li Xue''s current condition was actually not that good.
After using the [War Goddess Mode] and the [Merge] skill at the same time, the bacsh she received right now was even heavier than before when she was only using [War Goddess Mode].
Luckily, Tang Li Xue had already passed out because of extreme exhaustion, if she still remained conscious, she would be suffering unimaginable tearing pain all over her body right now.
However, Tang Li Xue''s breath was getting weaker and weaker as if her breathing would stop at any moment.
Yaya and Phoenix of Pride also received bacsh from [War Goddess Mode], but it was much lighter than Tang Li Xue.
Actually, Tang Li Xue herself was not getting stronger when she entered [War Goddess Mode]...
In short, Tang Li Xue only acted as a vessel to contain the power of both Yaya and Phoenix of Pride in [War Goddess Mode], so Tang Li Xue might seem many times stronger, but she actually only controls the power of three creatures in one body: her own power, Yaya, and Phoenix of Pride.
Plus she also used the [Merge] skill from [Twin Moons] to fuse with her perfect copy, so previously, Tang Li Xue''s body actually held the power of four creatures at once!
Moreover, both Yaya and Phoenix of Pride have already be a lot stronger than before, so the burden that Tang Li Xue must bear as their vessel in [War Goddess Mode] would also increase significantly.
It was still unknown until now if Tang Li Xue could survive this extremely violent bacsh, or if she might really get eliminated from the Hunting Foxes Festival because of it.
.....
While Tang Li Xue still fought against the [War Goddess Mode]''s violent bacsh in her sleep, the brown fox in the form of a mole rat sniffed something when it was moving in the underground.
Even though the underground was dark, but brown mole fox has an incredible sense of smell, touch, and hearing.
The brown mole fox sniffed carefully again and followed the smell until it reached the ce where Tang Li Xue was sleeping right now!
Yes, Tang Li Xue fought several times in the deep smelly turbid water before, and she still did not have any time to clean herself until now.
So, it was not strange that this brown mole fox with an incredibly sharp sense of smell could easily track where Tang Li Xue was hiding from her horrible stinky smell.
When the brown mole fox nced at the treasure box near the sleeping Tang Li Xue, it became very excited.
Then when it saw the sleeping Tang Li Xue and Yaya, its eyes glinted with a cold light.
Ordinary mole rats might have poor vision, but this brown mole fox was different. Not only it has night vision, but it could see everything in the dark very clearly.
At first, the brown mole fox was still hesitating for a few moments about whether this was Tang Li Xue''s trap or not.
But as the brown mole fox sensed that Tang Li Xue''s breath became weaker and weaker, it immediately realized that Tang Li Xue was dying.
The brown mole fox could easily guess that Tang Li Xue might be like this because she fought against another fox for this treasure box before.
The brown mole fox instantly decided to quickly cut down Tang Li Xue and Yaya, then took the treasure box before running away quickly from here!
The brown mole fox pounced swiftly toward Tang Li Xue and raised its sharp w while aiming at Tang Li Xue''s throat!
Just when the brown mole fox''s sharp w almost tore Tang Li Xue''s defenseless throat...
A tiny ck silhouette suddenly jumped out on the top of the sleeping Tang Li Xue!
The brown mole fox''s heart almost jumped out from its chest, and it swiftly jumped back into its tunnel hole!
The brown mole fox prepared to run away as quickly as it could from here, but it was still reluctantly peeking at the treasure box near the sleeping Tang Li Xue.
Then it identally saw the tiny creature that scaring it just now was actually only a palm-sized small ck kitten!
The brown mole fox halted its runaway movement and turned back again.
The brown mole fox walked toward the sleeping Tang Li Xue again and stared at the cute tiny ck kitten, then scolded: "Tsk, so it is only a small cute kitten! Scare this young miss to death!"
The small ck kitten stared at the brown mole fox cutely.
Meooww~!
The brown mole fox seemed to like the cute small kitten quite a bit, but it still could not endure the temptation of the treasure box.
"I am sorry, Little Kitty~! I will not hurt you and your master, but I need to take that treasure box! Don''t get angry at me, okay~?" The brown mole fox tried tofort the small ck kitten with its gentlest tone.
The brown mole fox jumped over the sleeping Tang Li Xue, but when it wanted to grab the treasure box...
Its vision was suddenly split into four!
''Eh? What is happening...?!'' The brown mole fox thought in puzzlement.
Only after a few moments, it finally realized that it was not her vision that was split, but it was her body that split into four parts!
Until itsst moment, the brown mole fox never thought that it was the previous small little kitten that killed it since the small little kitten did not let out any aura at all.
The brown mole fox''s body shattered and turned into a group of white lights, then disappeared.
nd¦Ásv¦Ål
"Nyaow Nyan Meoo~!!!" (Never call me, Little Kitty, you moron~!!!)
Little Loki angrily meowed, even though it looked even more cute instead.
The reason that Little Loki did not attack the brown mole fox was because it was only awake just now and still did not know whether the brown mole fox was an enemy or ally.
However, the brown mole fox''s previous conversation confirmed that it was an enemy.
At first, Little Loki wanted to eat the brown mole fox with its [Heaven''s Devour], but Little Loki instantly realized that this was an intentionally made world, and there was an extremely powerful creature supervising this entire world.
Little Loki immediately abandoned its intention to use [Heaven''s Devour] and used its newly acquired skill, [Scythe w Qi], instead!
It was the skill Little Loki acquired after integrating the [Ancient Sword Qi] from so many ancient swords it devoured from the Heavenly Sword Immortal''s tomb and the Sapphire Wasp Queen''s sharp scythe attack.
After making sure that the brown mole fox had really disappeared, Little Loki jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s furry body and hastily checked Tang Li Xue''s condition.
Little Loki''s expression turned very solemn in worry when it sensed Tang Li Xue''s critical condition.
Little Loki wanted to help Tang Li Xue to alleviate her extremely severe condition, but it did not have any healing skills at all.
Little Loki became incredibly upset and annoyed since it could not do anything to heal Tang Li Xue right now.
When Little Loki was confused and did not know what to do, it unintentionally nced at the treasure box beside Tang Li Xue.
Little Loki approached the treasure box and smelled a delicious fragrance from within the box.
Little Loki opened the treasure box with its tiny paws and found a three-colored herb inside the treasure box.
The delicious fragrance became much more intense after Little Loki opened the treasure box, even Little Loki started drooling just by smelling it.
Little Loki shook its head while trying its hardest to resist its instinct as pureblooded Taotie to devour this three-colored herb right away.
Little Loki wiped its drool with its paws and took the three-colored herb to Tang Li Xue.
Little Loki did not dare to grab this three-colored herb using its mouth since it was afraid that it identally swallowed the three-colored herb, so Little Loki grabbed it using its tiny paws instead.
Little Loki reluctantly nced at the three-colored herb, it took a quick lick at the three-colored herb before stuffing it into Tang Li Xue''s mouth.
Well, one lick to taste it was better than not tasting it at all, right?
At least, Little Loki thought so just now...
It could be seen from this that Little Loki actually really cared a lot about Tang Li Xue.
It could even restrain its instinct to devour everything especially delicious treasures as Taotie''s cub for Tang Li Xue.
Both Little Yaya and Little Loki''s timely awaken before were actually also not because of Tang Li Xue''s luck.
It was because they have a close mental connection with Tang Li Xue, so both Little Yaya and Little Loki could sense it when Tang Li Xue was in danger.
*Ding!
[You had consumed the 300 Years Old Immortal Herb.]
[Your Toughness stat increased by 1,200.]
[Your Strength and Spirit stat increased by 600.]
[You have awakened (Quick Restore) divine ability!]
*Ding!
[System detected Host''s current condition is critical!]
[Automatically activated (Quick Restore) divine ability to recover Host''s condition back to normal!]
When Little Loki saw Tang Li Xue''s breath quickly be stronger and stronger after she consumed the three-colored herb, Little Loki sighed in relief.
Then Little Loki started to regret and thought that maybe it only need to give Tang Li Xue a half of the three-colored herb before...
No, a half was still too much... Maybe one-third was enough to cure her severe critical condition... Well, let''s just forget it...
Little Lokizily stretched its body and jumped onto Tang Li Xue. It kicked away the sleeping Yaya and slept on top of Tang Li Xue''s warm furry body instead.
Chapter 539: Tang Li Xues Complete Team!
Chapter 539: Tang Li Xue''s Complete Team!
.....
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes and found herself still lying inside the dark underground tunnel.
At first, a sense of confusion shed in her eyes, but it quickly cleared up as she muttered with azy tone: "Ah, that is right... I passed out after winning the second treasure game..."
When Tang Li Xue tried to move her silver furry body, she felt a tearing pain spreading on her entire body.
Tang Li Xue winced in pain and eximed: "Hiss~! Ouch~! Ouch~! Ouch~! So painful~! What the hell is this?! Oh, right... This should be the bacsh from [War Goddess Mode]... That ugly ck-dotted fox, I will make sure to pay this back ten timester!"
Even though the severe bacsh had already been cured with her newly acquired [Quick Restore] divine ability, but the aftereffect was still torturing Tang Li Xue.
However, it was only mild aftereffects such as muscle pain, temporary weakness, splitting headache, and so on.
Tang Li Xue instantly deted and became evenzier to move around.
Whilezily lying down, Tang Li Xue sensed Little Loki nearby and happily spoke: "Oh? Little Loki~?! So, you already woke up~! I am so d that you... Err, what are you two doing?"
When Tang Li Xue turned her body around to see Little Loki, she saw her twopanion pets, Little Yaya and Little Loki, were currently staring at each other menacingly.
Yaya was ring angrily at Little Loki, while Little Loki was staring haughtily at Yaya...
Tang Li Xue was afraid that these two would fight each other, so she immediately warned them with a solemn tone: "All right, that is enough, you two. We are still in the Foxes Hunting Festival right now. There are many other powerful foxes here, so we must not quarrel with each other here, understand?!"
Humph~!!!
Both Little Loki and Yaya looked away from each other with annoyed expressions.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after Little Loki and Yaya stopped squabbling.
Then Tang Li Xue remembered that she still had an unopened treasure box from the second treasure game she won!
She ignored the muscle pain on her entire body and excitedly jumped toward the treasure box.
But she soon found out that the treasure box had already been opened, and it was already empty!
Tang Li Xue turned around and stared at Little Loki full of suspicion.
Yaya also nced at Little Loki and smiled, but her smile was mixed with mocking and gloating.
Little Loki''s haughty expression instantly turned into anger as it shouted while pointing its paw to Tang Li Xue: "Nyan nyaw meoww~!!!" (You ungrateful fox, I used the treasure inside that box to cure you before~!!!)
Tang Li Xue instantly felt embarrassed and replied with an appeasing tone: "Oh, really? Hehehe, I am sorry for suspecting you just now, Little Loki... As I expect from my favorite Little Loki, so smart and caring~!"
Afterforting the aggrieved Little Loki for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue impatiently checked her system''s previous information record.
"Three hundred years old Immortal Herb? Immortal... Wow, it sounds so amazing~!" Tang Li Xue murmured in amazement.
"Woah~! My Toughness stats increased by 1,200! Strength and Spirit stats also increased by 600! Isn''t that mean I got 2,400 free stat points by consuming this 300 Years Old Immortal Herb?!" Tang Li Xue eximed with a tone filled with excitement.
"So powerful~! Hahahaha~! It was not in vain that I use all of my efforts and even sacrifice my perfect copy to win that second treasure game~!" Tang Li Xueughed happily.
After calming herself down, Tang Li Xue began to check thest effect of 300 Years Old Immortal Herb.
Tang Li Xue inhaled a deep breath as she murmured with a curious tone: "It even gave me another divine ability?! The effect of this 300 Years Old Immortal Herb is too powerful, right?! Let see... [Quick Restore]... I wonder what is the effect of this divine ability..."
([Quick Restore]: Restore the user''s condition back to normal in 12 seconds. Cooldown: 24 hours. Note: This divine ability can only be used on the user, not another target.)
The [Quick Restore]''s description was extremely simple, but the effect was far from as simple as its description!
Because the description did not exin something like the amount of HP or what kind of bad status it could restore, then it means this [Quick Restore] could restore everything back to normal!
In short, no matter what happens to Tang Li Xue, this [Quick Restore] could restore Tang Li Xue back to her normal healthy self in 12 seconds!
Yes, even if Tang Li Xue was crippled or her limbs were cut, as long as she was still breathing and alive, she would be restored back to normal in 12 seconds!
Of course, the light seque such as pain, headache, momentary dull senses, and so on, would still persist for a longer period of time.
"Damn it~?! This [Quick Restore] is so OP~! Uwehehehehe, with this [Quick Restore], I will have one more life-saving divine ability!" Tang Li Xue excitedly said.
Of course, this [Quick Restore] was far from omnipotent, and Tang Li Xue also realized some of its weaknesses.
First, it took 12 seconds to restore Tang Li Xue back to normal, if she was killed before 12 seconds, then Tang Li Xue would still die.
Second, this [Quick Restore] could not restore Tang Li Xue''s stamina and energy, so using it when she waspletely exhausted would be futile.
Third, it could only be used on herself, so she could not use it on her allies such as Yaya, Loki, Instructor Lan, Bingbing, and so on if someday they got severely injured.
Despite that, Tang Li Xue still felt extremely satisfied with this [Quick Restore], because it could cure the horrible bacsh of [War Goddess Mode]!
With this [Quick Restore], Tang Li Xue did not need to be so wary of using [War Goddess Mode] from now on.
''Sigh... But my stamina and energy are still my biggest headache... Well, since I cannot solve it yet, let''s just forget for now...'' Tang Li Xue thought in resignation.
d¦Ásv¦Ål
Tang Li Xue started to ponder her next n carefully...
She was quite reluctant to move around without her perfect copy, and she nned to wait until her perfect copy was restored before participating in her third treasure game.
In the [Twin Moons]''s description, it was said that Tang Li Xue needs to take the moonlight bath for 9 nights to recover her perfect copy, but Tang Li Xue actually did not really need to wait under the moon for all 9 nights.
In fact, as long as Tang Li Xue absorbed the moonlight power for 9 nights, her perfect copy would recover, and she could use her [Twin Moons] again to summon out her perfect copy again.
Well, Tang Li Xue found out about this fact because she slept inside her room before, but her perfect copy still recovered after 9 nights...
"So, I already passed out for four days... Five more nights until my perfect copy ispletely restored..." Tang Li Xue murmured while thinking deeply.
Tang Li Xue was unwilling to wait for five nights without doing anything, especially since Little Yaya and Little Loki already awoke right now, and her full team was alreadypletely assembled!
Tang Li Xue, Little Yaya, Little Loki, Phoenix of Pride, [Golden Winged Serpent]...
Tang Li Xue felt extremely confident that their team of five could even face predator-level fox!
What make Tang Li Xue still hesitate was because she was still unsure if Little Loki and Little Yaya got killed in this Foxes Hunting Festival would they only got eliminated and kicked out from this event, or would they really die for real...
Because different from herself that entered this Foxes Hunting Festival using an official jade badge, both Little Loki and Little Yaya were brought by Tang Li Xue here using her cheating system!
If she died here, she would only get eliminated and kicked out from the official jade badge, then the official jade badge would probably shatter...
But what if Little Loki and Little Yaya died here?!
They entered this Foxes Hunting Festival illegally without any jade badge!
"Urghhh... What a headache~!" Tang Li Xue groaned in annoyance.
Just when Tang Li Xue hesitated on what to do next...
"Ya~!!!"
"Meow~!!!"
Both Little Loki and Yaya appeared in front of Tang Li Xue and patted at their chest with an expression filled with confidence as if saying to Tang Li Xue: "Don''t worry about it... Believe in us~!"
However, Little Loki and Yaya red at each other in dissatisfaction and started to squabble with each other again.
Tang Li Xueughed at them and patted their head gently with her paws while replying: "Both of you are right... We are strong! Why should we worry about dying?! In the worst situation, I can just put the two of you back into the system''s pet spaceter!"
After making a decision on what she wanted to do next, Tang Li Xue activated her [Spider Scorpion Transformation] and dug the tunnel out to the surface.
Yaya and Little Loki also stopped squabbling with each other. Little Loki jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s head, while Yaya sat on Tang Li Xue''s furry back.
After jumping out from the underground tunnel, Tang Li Xue took a deep breath of the fresh air outside, and said: "Yuck~! It smells so bad~! Damn, this smell is from that water dungeon''s dirty water!"
"It seems I need to take a bath first... But I do not want to take a bath in thatke!" Tang Li Xue murmured while shuddering in disgust when she remembered the nasty-looking Kraken Fox.
Tang Li Xue was not in a hurry to participate in her third treasure game.
Other than taking a bath, she also nned to take some time to create some talismans from the tree bark first.
Chapter 540: Preparation for the Next Treasure Game!
Chapter 540: Preparation for the Next Treasure Game!
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment].
Her silver furry figure vanished as she turned invisible and untrackable.
On her way, Tang Li Xue opened Yaya''s status window in her system and checked Yaya''s two new defense-type divine abilities.
([Traceless Wind Cover]: The user bes invisible by creating a wind cloak to shroud the entire body. The user will have a 50% damage reduction effect until the wind cloak is broken.)
([Wind Guardian Blessing]: Increase overall speed by 50%, and grant the user auto-dodge effect. Duration: 10 seconds (Depending on Agility stat). Note: auto-dodge will not work if the opponent''s attack speed is faster than the user''s speed, or if the AoE attack radius is toorge.)
"These two defense-type divine abilities are much better than I expected~! The first divine ability grants invisibility plus damage reduction effect, while the second divine ability grants speed boost buff plus auto-dodge effect." Tang Li Xue muttered in amazement.
Moreover, the effects of these two defense-type divine abilities would not sh with each other at all, so both of them could be used at the same time in many different situations.
Tang Li Xue was actually also itching to try to give the Sapphire Armored Wasp''s royal jelly to Little Loki and see what kind of divine ability it would awaken.
Unfortunately, she could not bring any items to this Foxes Hunting Festival, so she could only postpone this n forter until she got eliminated and sent back if she wanted to give the royal jelly to Little Loki.
Little Loki used its skill to turn invisible, while Little Yaya also used [Traceless Wind Cover] to be invisible.
The three of them traveled together toward the nearby mountain this time.
On their way, Tang Li Xue also saw many other foxes that rushed toward the pir of golden light, but Tang Li Xue did not n to greet or fight with them, so she simply ignored them all.
Some of the foxes even fought fiercely to kill each other, Tang Li Xue decided to just take a bit of detour since she did not want to identally get involved in their fight.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she sensed Yaya and Little Loki were very calm and vignt on their way.
If both Yaya and Little Loki recklessly attacked all the foxes they met on their way, Tang Li Xue might have another huge headache now.
After a few hours when the sun was almost set, Tang Li Xue finally found a clear river in the valley under the mountain.
Tang Li Xue happily jumped onto the river while canceling her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment].
However, when Tang Li Xuended her feet in the river...
SPPPLLAAAAASSHHH~!!!
A mouth full of sharp teeth suddenly appeared in front of Tang Li Xue''s snout!
There was a fox with [Shark Transformation] divine ability hiding in the river, and it was waiting for its prey to enter the water before attacking!
Tang Li Xue actually had already sensed this sneak attacker with her [Extrasensory Perception] since a few moments ago!
Just as Tang Li Xue wanted to use her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge this attack...
[Scythe w Qi]!
[Compressed Wind de]!
PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!! PUFF~!!!
The fox with [Shark Transformation] was cut into pieces under the merciless simultaneous attack of both Little Loki and Little Yaya, then it turned into a group of white light and disappeared!
Tang Li Xue: "....."
''Why do I feel like a useless young mistress guarded by two powerful bodyguards... Oh, well... At least we did not meet with any predator-level foxes yet until now.'' Tang Li Xue thought in her heart.
"Little Loki, Yaya~! Thank you very..." Tang Li Xue turned around to face Little Loki and Yaya, but before she could finish her words...
Ya~! Yaya ya~?!" (That is my prey~! I kill it first with my attack~!)
Mew meow~? Nyawnyaw~!" (Are you dreaming, kid? It clearly died because of my attack~!)
Yaya~?! Yayaayaa yaaa ya~! (Kid~?! I was born first before you, so you should call me big sister~!)
Little Loki no longer replied to Yaya and only stared at her full of disdain as if it was asking mockingly: ''Big sister?! Do you really think you deserve to be the big sister of meawesome me?!''
Then Little Loki and Yaya started to re at each other menacingly...
Tang Li Xue put her paw on her furry head with a facepalm pose and muttered: "You two... Sigh... Can you two get along well with each other?!"
YAAAAA~!!! (Impossible~!!!)
MEOWNYAW~!!! (Meompawssible~!!!)
Both Little Loki and Yaya replied at the same time and red at each other in anger again.
Tang Li Xue could even imagine a spark of me and lightning when their re shed with each other.
She has threepanions right now... Little Loki, Little Yaya, and Phoenix of Pride... But the three of them never liked each other and always quarrel when they met!
Tang Li Xue really did not get it at all, why they always acted like this when they met with each other...
d¦Ásv¦Ål m
She could understand if the greedy dumb bird, the Phoenix of Pride, was the one who acted like this, but Little Loki and Little Yaya were different.
Yaya was always obedient and sensible in front of Tang Li Xue.
While Little Loki was always behaving much more maturely than Tang Li Xue, and it always acted smart and wise in any situation.
But why when they met with each other, they would act childishly like this?!
Tang Li Xue started to suspect that her system give a bad debuff to them, something like [-100 IQ when yourpanion pets meet with each other].
"All right, you two, that is enough! Come here now! I will bathe both of you until clean!" Tang Li Xue said to Little Loki and Little Yaya with a stern tone.
Little Yaya activated her [Extreme Speed] and [Wind Guardian Blessing] to increase her speed as she flew swiftly toward Tang Li Xue!
However, Little Loki used [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] to lock Little Yaya until she could not move, then it used [Instant Teleportation] to appear right in front of Tang Li Xue in an instant.
When Yaya could move again, she was fuming in rage at Little Loki''s cheating move, so she used her wind control to blow Little Loki until Little Loki flew backward further from Tang Li Xue!
Both Little Loki and Yaya begin to fight fiercely... Well, they were not attacking to hurt each other, but they used their divine abilities and skills to make the other not approach Tang Li Xue instead.
Tang Li Xue pped her furry head with her paw again in frustration.
Tang Li Xue decided to ignore them and let them quarrel to their heart content first.
She activated the [Transfiguration: Human Form] to change into her human form.
Tang Li Xue was much morefortable taking a bath in her human form.
"Sigh... Unfortunately, I cannot bring any flower fragrance soap here... This unpleasant smell still persistently sticks to my body!" Tang Li Xueined as she took a bath in the river.
After making sure that she was not smelly anymore, Tang Li Xue also forcefully pulled both Yaya and Little Loki, then scrubbed both of them at the same time until they were also not smelly anymore.
Then Tang Li Xue de-activated her [Transfiguration: Human Form] and turned back into her silver-furred fox form.
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and Yaya toward the nearbyrge tree and dug a hole in thatrge tree to hide there for tonight.
When Little Loki and Yaya slept inside the tree hole, Tang Li Xue took many tree barks into the tree hole and activated her transfiguration to turn into her human form again, then she took out her golden inscription pen from her system storage.
Tang Li Xue pierced the golden inscription pen onto her palm to use her own blood as the ink to make the talisman.
With her [High-Speed Regeneration], it only took a dozen seconds for her superficial wound topletely recover.
"Hmm... What kind of talismans I should make? Buff-type talismans such as [Talisman of Giant Strength], [Talisman of Lightning Speed], and [Talisman of Iron Skin] are a must. [Talisman of Regeneration] is also very important... Then let''s make these four talismans first!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she took one tree bark.
Tang Li Xue''s expression became solemn as she started to carefully carve the rune using her inscription pen and her blood onto the tree bark.
BOOOFFF~!!!
The tree bark exploded and shattered to pieces!
The first attempt was a failure...
Tang Li Xue was not discouraged at all.
She took another tree bark and immediately started her second attempt.
BOOOFFF~!!!
The second attempt... failed again!
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and tried again.
Third attempt, fourth attempt, fifth attempt, sixth attempt...
BOOOFFF~!!! BOOOFFF~!!! BOOOFFF~!!! BOOOFFF~!!!
Tang Li Xue stopped for a while and took a deep breath to calm herself down.
"Sigh... Making the talisman with the talisman paper and making the talisman with the tree bark are really two different matters... The difficulty is clearly not on the same level." Tang Li Xue groaned in displeasure.
After calming down, Tang Li Xue was focusing all of her attention on the inscription pen in her hand, then she started to carve the rune slowly onto the tree bark.
It was ten times slower than when Tang Li Xue made the talisman using the talisman paper.
But she finally seeded this time!
Tang Li Xue excitedly raised her first sessfully made talisman from tree bark.
However, Tang Li Xue''s excitement immediately vanished when she saw the [Talisman of Giant Strength] did not have any additional stat like her usual talisman.
Chapter 541: Got Ambushed Again!
Chapter 541: Got Ambushed Again!
Tang Li Xue was a bit disappointed at the [Talisman of Giant Strength] without any additional stat, but she quickly regained herposure.
She took another tree bark and began to make another talisman nonstop until the morning sun was rising.
"Fuuuhh~! Around one sess in ten tries... It seems my talisman-making skill has degraded a bit... I need to practice more, and I also need to learn more from Teacher Li Wei after this Foxes Hunting Festival is over." Tang Li Xue muttered to herself.
After working for more than five hours, Tang Li Xue managed to create tens of different types of talismans.
But the result was still far from her expectation since only a few of them has additional plus stat, and almost all of those were [Talisman of Regeneration].
Maybe it was because she has [High-Speed Regeneration] skill, so the difficulty of making [Talisman of Regeneration] was much lower for herpared to the other types of talisman.
Tang Li Xue canceled her [Transfiguration] and turned back from her human form to her fox form again.
"All right, I am armed to the teeth right now~! It is time for us to enter the third treasure game~! So, you all need to wake up, little cuties~! It is already morning now, and we still have a job to do~!" Tang Li Xue said as she woke up the sleeping Little Loki and Yaya.
The funny thing was, Yaya and Little Loki actually slept while cuddling each other peacefully, while they were always squabbling when they were awake.
Yaya and Little Loki slowly woke up while yawning widely.
Both of themzily stretched their body together.
After their brain started working again, both of them quickly jumped back and distanced themselves from each other.
"Ya yaaayayaa~?!" (Why are you sleeping so close to me?!)
"Mew~?! Nyaw mew?! Nyaw mew meow~!" (Excuse mew?! Do you have any shame?! You are the one who hugs mew first~!)
Then they began to squabble with each other again as usual.
Tang Li Xue could only put her paw on her head in a facepalm pose with a helpless expression.
Tang Li Xue let them fuss with each other for a while so they would not be sleepy anymore, while she decided to find some vines first.
Using those vines, Tang Li Xue tied all of the talismans she already made on her neck and waist.
After that, Tang Li Xue ran back to the tree hole, but she found out that Little Loki and Yaya were still busily squabbling with each other.
Thankfully, they stopped quarreling under Tang Li Xue''s persuasion... or rather... threat might be more appropriate, and they finally could continue their trip in a peaceful manner.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], while Yaya and Little Loki were using their own skill to turn invisible too.
There were several pirs of golden light near Tang Li Xue''s location.
After pondering it carefully for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue decided to head toward the pir of golden light on the top of a nearby mountain.
On her way, Tang Li Xue met with several other foxes that fought fiercely against each other.
Tang Li Xue sighed in annoyance and took a bit of detour from their battlefield, since she did not want to have another ident again, just like when she identally got hit by the two giant foxes fought against each other before.
Tang Li Xue silentlyined in her heart: "Sigh... Why do they need to fight each other at every turn?! Isn''t it better if they just ignore each other and only fight in the treasure game instead?"
However, Tang Li Xue''s understanding of the treasure game was still too limited since she only participated in two treasure games until now.
But sooner orter, she would definitely learn the reason why the other foxes wanted to finish their opponents first before participating in the treasure game.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s luck was not that good this time.
Because when she almost reached the pir of golden light on the top of the mountain, it suddenly disappeared.
Tang Li Xue could only gnash her fangs in frustration.
But she could guess that the reason for the pir of golden light''s disappearance was because the treasure game had already started.
Tang Li Xuemented for a while...
Because she was extremely careful on her way, she wasted more than two hours to reach here.
Surprisingly, Little Loki and Yaya were quite united this time when they tried tofort Tang Li Xue.
When Tang Li Xue got rid of her frustration and determined her next destination, Little Loki and Yaya sat again on her head and back.
Tang Li Xue decided to use stop saving her energy and used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] right now as she was heading swiftly to the other pir of golden light in the valley under the mountain.
Tang Li Xue could actually fly much faster using [Lightning Form], but both Yaya and Little Loki would not be able to sit on her head and back like this, or they might get electrocuted by the silver lightning on her [Lightning Form].
d¦Ásv¦Ål
As for why Yaya and Little Loki could still sit on her back when she was still in [Ethereal Form], Tang Li Xue also did not know very clearly, but she guessed that it was because Yaya and Little Loki were herpanion pets.
Just like her clothes, spatial ring, and space pouch, Yaya and Little Loki might be also counted as her ''property'', so they could still touch her when she was in her [Ethereal Form].
Anyway, Tang Li Xue did not have any time to care about that right now because she was still busily rushing toward the valley under the mountain.
The green valley was extremely beautiful with colorful flowers and trees, but just as Tang Li Xue admired the amazing scenery around her...
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The grassy ground under her feet suddenly shook violently!
"Damn, I knew it would not be that easy~!" Tang Li Xue grumbled as she kept running swiftly with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] without any intention to stop.
Learning from her previous lesson, Tang Li Xue already expected there might be some foxes that would ambush her when she almost reached the pir of golden light, just like the previous Kraken Fox.
As for her first treasure game, she did not get ambushed because the treasure game had almost started at that time.
Tang Li Xue remembered that she arrived around 200 seconds before the first treasure game started or around 3,5 minutes...
Little Loki and Yaya already stared at each other vigntly while they were already putting their battle stance.
It was as if they were afraid that their prey would be taken by the other, and they did not have any chance to show their strength improvement to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue quickly warned the two of them by saying through their mental connection: "Calm down, you two little guys~! You two will have a lot of chances to show your powerter in the treasure game, but definitely not now~!"
"And you, Little Loki... Be sure to never use your devouring power here! This is a special ce and might be supervised by an extremely powerful elder fox, so I do not want it to guess your true identity from your devouring power! Do you understand clearly?!" Tang Li Xue warned with a very stern tone.
Little Loki rolled its eyes while thinking: "You only warned me now, really?! It is almost toote, okay?! If I devoured that brown mole fox before when you two were still sleeping, I would have already gotten discovered by now!"
But Little Loki still obediently nodded its tiny furry head at Tang Li Xue to show that it understood.
BAAAAAAAANNNGGG~!!!
A thick earth wall had suddenly grown from the ground and blocking on Tang Li Xue''s way!
Tang Li Xue could only halt her step since she could sense that this thick earth wall was imbued by earth energy, so Tang Li Xue could not pass through them using [Etheream Form].
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] could also sense that something dangerous wasing toward her from the ground under her feet.
"Little Loki, Yaya~! I will put you two into my space first! Just be good and bear with it for a while, I will certainly let you out again after I enter the treasure gameter, okay?" Tang Li Xue exined while using her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to swiftly dodge in a zigzag pattern toward the right and left sides.
BAAAAAAAANNNGGG~!!!
Several thick and sharp earth spikes stabbed out from where Tang Li Xue stood just now!
If her [Extrasensory Perception] failed to sense them, Tang Li Xue might be stabbed by those earth spikes like a raw barbeque right now!
But it did not mean that Tang Li Xue''s crisis was over!
Just when Tang Li Xue quickly put away both Yaya and Little Loki into her system''s pet space, a giant stone hand appeared right below Tang Li Xue''s feet, then it intended to grab and crush Tang Li Xue in one grasp!
[Lightning Form] activated!
In that instant, Tang Li Xue''s furry silver figure transformed into a streak of silver lightning!
The streak of silver lightning shed extremely quickly toward the pir of golden light, and it vanished as it entered the pir of golden light!
Even the earth-controlling fox that stood near the pir of golden light did not have any chance to react at all.
Chapter 542: Treacherous Treasure Game?!
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes and instantly saw a silver fox right in front of her eyes.
She swiftly jumped back in surprise while condensing a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] to defend herself from any attack.
But the silver fox in front of her also did the same action as her, she also jumped back quickly and condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws].
"Eh?! This is... apparently only a mirror... Damn it~! Scare me to death~!" Tang Li Xue spoke with an annoyed tone.
Tang Li Xue looked around and found that she was already inside the dungeon... again!
But this third treasure game was not in the water dungeon but in the mirror dungeon!
The surrounding walls, ceiling, and even the ground below her feet reflected Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure, and it really made Tang Li Xue dizzy just by looking at them.
After getting used to it for a while, Tang Li Xue decided to release Yaya and Little Loki from her system''s space.
At first, Yaya and Little Loki were also very surprised and ready tounch a quick attack on the mirror wall in front of them.
"Calm down, you two~! Those are only mirror reflections." Tang Li Xue quickly stopped them before they could attack the mirror wall.
On the top of the mirror wall''s reflection, Tang Li Xue found the usual countdown timer written in red digits.
[2143]...
[2142]...
[2141]...
"Err, 2140 seconds... So, the game will begin around 35 more minutes. Sigh... I thought the stinky water dungeon is already the worst one. Who knows that this time there will be a much moreplicated and confusing mirror dungeon?! Aissshh~!" Tang Li Xueined while sighing in resignation.
Yaya and Little Loki patted Tang Li Xue''s back tofort her.
Tang Li Xue felt amused at Yaya and Little Loki, then thought: ''It is really nice to have Yaya and Little Loki. Unlike my own perfect copy who alwaysins and mes me for everything! Humph~!"
Well... Actually, the perfect copy''s behavior from [Twin Mirrors] divine ability was undoubtedly 100% identical to the real one...
Time passed quickly as Tang Li Xue was ying around with Little Loki and Yaya, and the countdown timer finally reached zero.
Then the countdown timer changed into a string of words!
[Find Doppelganger and kill it.]
[The fox who killed the Doppelganger will be the winner and get the precious treasure.]
[Only the one with enough strength and wits can win this game, so good luck, fox cubs!]
"Eh, what?! Do... Doppel... ganger? What the hell does it mean?!" Tang Li Xue murmured while frowning in confusion.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
While Tang Li Xue was pondering carefully the rules of this treasure game, the mirror wall in front of her opened by itself revealing a new path.
"Doppelganger... So, I must kill my own clone or something like that? Sigh... This treasure game''s rule is not clear enough~! Moreover, finding my own Doppelganger in thisplicated mirror maze?! Are you kidding me?! That would be extremely troublesome~!" Tang Li Xue groaned in aggravation.
"Yaya, Little Loki, be sure to always stay close to me! It is really easy to get separated and get lost in this mirror maze!" Tang Li Xue sternly warned Yaya and Little Loki who already sat on her back.
Yaya nodded obediently, but she did not lower their guard at all, and her expression also became solemn.
As for Little Loki, it still lookedzy and rxed as usual, but it was always ready tounch any attack at any time.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], but strangely, the mirror walls around her still reflected her usual silver furry figure.
Tang Li Xue did not pay any attention to it and stepped forward vigntly.
Just like the water dungeon, there were many intersections and paths in this mirror dungeon.
But they were much narrower and more confusingpared to the water dungeon.
Even with her [Mapping Sense], Tang Li Xue was still facing a lot of difficulty in surveying this mirror maze because she did not have help from her perfect copy this time!
Everywhere looked the same and in every direction she saw her own reflections that made Tang Li Xue almost go crazy in confusion and difort.
After walking around for ten minutes or so, Tang Li Xue finally saw another fox!
It was a maroon-colored fox, but it looked in the other direction instead of Tang Li Xue''s direction.
Yaya quicklyunched an attack toward the maroon-colored fox in reflex!
[Compressed Wind des]!
Several sharp wind des flew swiftly toward the maroon-colored fox!
BAAAAAAAAAANGGG~!!!
But they struck something solid instead!
It seemed Yaya''s sharp wind des only managed to hit the maroon-colored fox''s reflection in the mirror wall.
However, Yaya immediately lost control of her several sharp wind des and it flew back toward her instead right now!
"Watch out~!" Tang Li Xue warned while she condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] with her deep blue mes of Pride!
Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon ws] easily blocked several sharp wind des and shattered them in one move.
"Damn it~! So, these mirror walls can also reflect back any attack if we identally strike them?! You must be kidding, right?!" Tang Li Xue said with a shocked tone.
Tang Li Xue realized how difficult the current treasure game was!
There were so many mirror reflections here, but they could not attack randomly at all!
Meanwhile, how to find the Doppelganger in the midst of so many mirror reflections was the biggest problem they must face right now!
Different from Yaya, the maroon-colored fox frowned deeply, but it did not hastilyunch any attack on Tang Li Xue''s group.
After thinking for a few moments, the maroon-colored fox sneered evilly at Tang Li Xue as its maroon-colored eyes shone brightly.
Tang Li Xue raised her vignce to the maximum, but she never thought that Yaya would do something out of expectation behind her instead?!
[Compressed Wind des]!
Yaya suddenly used [Compressed Wind des] toward Tang Li Xue from behind!
BBAAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
Luckily, Little Loki acted fast and used its [Scythe w Qi] to intercept Yaya''s [Compressed Wind des] before it could hit Tang Li Xue''s back!
Both Yaya and Little Loki were thrown off a few meters from Tang Li Xue!
''Wha... What did you two do? Why do you two fight with each other at a time like this?!" Tang Li Xue angrily scolded them.
"Meow nyaw mew~!" (She got controlled by that fox~!)
"What?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise, then she quickly noticed that there was a maroon light in Yaya''s emerald green eyes.
But before Tang Li Xue could do anything, Yayaunched another attack on her and Little Loki!
[Cyclone Storm]!
A huge hurricane condensed from countless wind des instantly appeared and moved swiftly toward Tang Li Xue and Little Loki!
Normally, Little Loki could easily solve this [Cyclone Storm] using its [Heaven''s Devour], but it clearly could not use its [Heaven''s Devour] here in this Foxes Hunting Festival!
Little Loki''s tiny figure was the first sucked into the huge hurricane!
Little Loki hastily used [Instant Teleportation] to teleport further away from there and keep its distance from Yaya''s [Cyclone Storm]!
Tang Li Xue awakened the Phoenix of Pride sleeping in her Dantian and hastily entered [Perfect Assimtion] with it!
A powerful attack like [Cyclone Storm] could only be resolved with another powerful attack!
So, Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to condense the deep blue [Fire Bomb] and threw it toward the huge hurricane!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
When Tang Li Xue''s deep blue [Fire Bomb] exploded, the huge hurricane also dispersed!
"Yaya, wake up~! We are your friends, not your enemies~!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she tried to wake Yaya from the maroon-colored fox''s mind control type divine ability.
But Yaya had vanished from there, and Tang Li Xue could not find Yaya anymore!
"Yaya? Where are you?! Eh, Little Loki?" Tang Li Xue shouted as she tried to call Yaya back, but she realized that Little Loki was also missing from her side right now!
Tang Li Xue tried to contact them through their mental connection, but it was not working at all.
Then Tang Li Xue tried to summon them back into her system''s pet space, but it was also a failure too!
It was the first time that Tang Li Xue''s system failed to do something!
Tang Li Xue became extremely panicked since she could not sense,municate, or summon the two of them back right now!
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Little Loki looked around and failed to find Tang Li Xue or Yaya, but it did not panic at all.
Little Loki quickly realized that something was not right and concluded: "So, there are separate spaces inside the mirror wall?! This is extremely tricky and troublesome."
Little Loki decided to wander around alone to find the Doppelganger.
Only by killing the Doppelganger quickly that they could get out of this confusing ce as soon as possible!
.....
...
.
Yaya shook her tiny head to clear her dizziness.
When Yaya opened her emerald green eyes, she saw Tang Li Xue already staring at her with an expression full of worry and asked: "Are you all right, Yaya? Do you want to rest first?"
Yaya shook her head again and signaled that she was all right, then she flew toward Tang Li Xue and sat on her back again as usual.
"Okay, we must find Little Loki first. It identally got separated from us just now." Tang Li Xue told Yaya.
When Tang Li Xue continued on her way, there was an imperceptibly cunning smile on her face, but Yaya failed to notice it.
Chapter 543: Panicked Tang Li Xue!
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue was currently running around blindly in a panic to find the missing Yaya and Little Loki.
Getting separated and lost in this kind of extremely confusing mirror maze was truly a nightmare for anyone.
Moreover, her mental connection with Yaya and Little Loki was somehowpletely disconnected right now.
Tang Li Xue was very afraid that something dangerous would happen to Little Loki or Yaya.
Unlike all of the foxes in this Foxes Hunting Festival, Little Loki and Yaya did not have the protection from the jade badge, so if Little Loki and Yaya died here, they would not only get eliminated like all foxes but would really die!
After sprinting randomly in this mirror maze for ten minutes or so, Tang Li Xue saw another fox again.
This time, it was a cinnamon-colored fox.
Tang Li Xue did not hastily attack the cinnamon-colored fox, since her attack would be reflected back if she identally struck the cinnamon-colored fox''s reflection on the mirror wall.
However, the cinnamon-colored foxunched an attack on Tang Li Xue first instead!
The cinnamon-colored fox suddenly shook its body and released countless pollens that almost could not be seen with the naked eye!
When its pollens touched the ground and mirror wall, it instantly grew into thick and long vines filled with barbs!
Tang Li Xue quickly used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to move further from the cinnamon-colored fox, but she bumped into a mirror wall behind her.
Then before Tang Li Xue could react, the long vines filled with barbs already entangled her body, even though Tang Li Xue was still in her [Ethereal Form]!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm her panicked mind as she urged her deep blue mes of Pride to burn the long vines filled with barbs that wrapped around her body!
Tang Li Xue''s deep blue mes of Pride did not only burning the long vines around her body but also spread very quickly and set all of the barbed long vines on fire!
By following the movement of her deep blue mes of Pride when it burned the barbed long vines, Tang Li Xue easily found the location of the real cinnamon-colored fox and mercilessly bombarded it with her [Sun Dragon Fangs]!
The deep blue majestic dragon head quickly formed above Tang Li Xue, and it bit down mercilessly toward the cinnamon-colored fox!
The cinnamon-colored fox wanted to use its wood-type divine ability to defend itself, but it was futile.
Wood-type divine ability was weak against fire-type divine ability, not to mention Tang Li Xue''s me was not an ordinary me at all!
BWOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
The cinnamon-colored fox was torn apart by Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon Fangs], and even its remains were burned by the deep blue mes, only leaving a group of white light and vanished.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief mixed with disappointment.
She felt relief because she did not meet with any troublesome predator-level fox yet until now.
While she felt disappointed because the fox she killed just now was not the Doppelganger.
If she managed to kill the Doppelganger, all participants would be kicked out of this treasure game, and she couldmunicate with Yaya and Little Loki again outside.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anxiousness, and she began to swiftly run around randomly again in the hope that she could find Yaya and Little Loki.
.....
...
.
Little Loki was wandering around randomly on the other side of the mirror maze while sighing in resignation.
If only it could use [Heaven''s Devour] here, this kind of tricky mirror maze could be easily broken in one gulp.
While thinking about what it must do to find the Doppelganger quicker, Little Loki found a ck and white striped fox in the mirror wall''s reflection.
Little Loki raised its vignce to the maximum and opened its third eye!
It immediatelyunched its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] to lock onto the ck and white striped fox''s location in an instant!
Little Loki jumped onto several mirror walls and used them as a springboard to pounce toward the ck and white striped fox!
[Scythe w Qi]!
The ck and white striped fox felt that all of its senses and movement were locked by Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation], but it did not panic at all.
Just when Little Loki''s [Scythe w Qi] was almost hitting the ck and white striped fox''s head, it suddenly activated its divine ability!
[Shadow Reflection]!
BAAAANGGG~!!!
The ck and white striped fox turned into shadow in that instant, and Little Loki''s [Scythe w Qi] struck the mirror on the floor instead, and the [Scythe w Qi] bounced back onto Little Loki!
Little Loki lithely spun its body in mid-air to avoid the bounced [Scythe w Qi], but it still managed to scratch Little Loki''s shoulder a bit.
When Little Lokinded lightly on the mirror floor, it stared at the ck and white striped fox with a solemn expression.
''This fox is strange. Is this the one called Doppelganger?'' Little Loki thought while carefully observing the ck and white striped fox in front of it.
The ck and white striped fox angrily stared at Little Loki and started tounch its counterattack!
[Light Reflection]!
Little Loki nned to use its [Instant Teleportation] and teleported right beside the ck and white striped fox, thenunch another fatal attack, but before it could do that, something fast and undetectable struck its tiny body!
BBBAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!
Little Loki''s tiny figure was thrown off until it crashed hard onto the mirror wall behind it!
Little Loki did not even know what hit it just now, but it hastily used its other skill before the ck and white striped fox could attack it again!
[sh and sh]!
This was [Sapphire Wasp Queen] divine ability that Little Loki got after consuming it.
This [sh and sh] gave a sudden burst of movement speed and attack speed in a short time to Little Loki!
Little Loki''s tiny figure vanished in an instant as it dashed forward with extremely fast speed andunched its [Scythe w Qi] toward the ck and white striped fox!
Unfortunately, the ck and white striped fox''s reaction was not slow...
[Shadow Reflection]!
Little Loki''s [Scythe w Qi] once again failed to hit the ck and white striped fox, and it struck the mirror wall behind it instead!
Little Loki''s eyes glinted with a cold light as it suddenly used [Instant Teleportation] and teleported to under the ck and white striped fox''s body, then waved its [Scythe w Qi] again!
Normally, this attack could certainly kill any opponent, but this ck and white striped fox was clearly not an ordinary opponent!
BAAAAAAAAANGGGGGG~!!!
Little Loki''s [Scythe w Qi] attack managed to strike the ck and white striped fox''s body, but Little Loki itself felt as if it did not hit anything at all!
The ck and white striped fox turned into a ck shadow and dispersed, but there was another ck and white striped fox behind it!
''Damn, I got tricked!'' Little Loki hastily thought, but it was already a bit toote when Little Loki realized it.
[Light and Shadow Reflection]!
Little Loki still could not see or sense the ck and white striped fox''s attack at all, but it quickly used its [Instant Teleportation] to teleport away further from it!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
However, the ck and white striped fox''s attack still struck Little Loki heavily as if it was already locked onto Little Loki''s body!
Little Loki''s tiny body was thrown off tens of meters and bounced onto several mirror walls, while its ck blood was sttered onto the mirror floor.
CCRRSSSS~!!!
Little Loki''s corrosive blood made a sizzling sound as it touched the mirror walls and mirror floor, but it failed to leave any mark on them.
It could be seen from this that the mirror walls and mirror floor might be almost indestructible for them.
Little Loki slowly got up while coughing out several mouthfuls of ck blood.
''This one is not only very powerful but its abilities are also extremely tricky... This foe is definitely much more troublesome than even the wasp queen!'' Little Loki concluded in its mind.
Yes, there was no doubt that this ck and white striped fox in front of Little Loki was the true predator-level fox!
Actually, the ck and white striped fox was also quite surprised since the tiny kitten in front of it could still survive under its lethal attack.
But it really did not matter since if one lethal attack failed to kill it, then the ck and white striped fox only need tounch a second attack toward it!
Just when the ck and white striped fox prepared tounch another lethal attack on Little Loki before it could recover...
Several [Compressed Wind des] suddenly came down from above toward the ck and white striped fox!
[Shadow Reflection]!
Several [Compressed Wind des] chopped the ck shadow into pieces, but the real ck and white striped fox was no longer there.
Little Loki looked around, then saw Tang Li Xue and Yaya already running toward it.
Little Loki sighed in relief, and it also happily ran toward them.
When Little Loki approached Tang Li Xue, Little Loki''s sharp sense of danger suddenly screamed to warn it of iing danger!
Little Loki thought the ck and white striped fox wasunching another attack toward it again, so Little Loki took a nce vigntly at the ck and white striped fox.
Who knew the one who attacked Little Loki this time was not the ck and white striped fox, but the fox in front of it!
[Moon Shattering Strike]!
Chapter 544: Little Loki’s Crisis!
When Tang Li Xue''s attack almost struck Little Loki''s tiny body, Little Loki already used its [Instant Teleportation] and teleported away to dozen of meters from Tang Li Xue.
Yaya who still sat on Tang Li Xue''s back felt confused by Tang Li Xue''s sudden iprehensible action.
"Yaya, I can sense it. That ck kitten is not the real Little Loki! I have heard that Doppelganger is a monster that can imitate anyone''s look! So, that ck kitten must be our target, the Doppelganger!" Tang Li Xue quickly exined to Yaya.
Yaya nodded her tiny head in understanding after she heard Tang Li Xue''s exnation and then red at Little Loki full of hostility.
"If we kill it, then we will win this game and obtain the precious treasure! Let''s go, Yaya! Hurry up and help me kill it quickly!" Tang Li Xue urged Yaya with a stern tone.
''Yaaa yaya~!" Yaya replied with a solemn expression as she pped her pair of transparent fairy wings on her back and charged toward Little Loki.
Little Loki frowned in hesitation.
Little Loki did not blindly get angry at Tang Li Xue since Tang Li Xue might really mistake itself for a Doppelganger just now.
But its hunch felt that there was somethingpletely off from the current Tang Li Xue in front of it, but before it could think or observe further, Yaya already flew toward it and started attacking it!
[Multiple Wind Clones]!
Yaya''s tiny green figure split into many identical Yayas in that instant!
Then Yayaunched her quickest skills, [High-Pressure Air Bullets]!
So many [High-Pressure Air Bullets] shot rapidly toward Little Loki like heavy rain!
Little Loki did not hesitate to use its skill to block all of Yaya''s attacks!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]!
The surrounding dense [High-Pressure Air Bullets] instantly froze in mid-air as if Little Loki pressed the pause button!
Even the movement of Yaya and her [Multiple Wind Clones] waspletely sealed, and they could no longer move under the effect of Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation].
However, Tang Li Xue quicklyunched an attack on Little Loki to assist Yaya from behind!
Tang Li Xue used her [Energy Maniption] to condense several dozen of white swords and controlled them to fly toward Little Loki at once!
Little Loki could only use its [Instant Teleportation] to retreat further again to avoid Tang Li Xue''s several dozen of white swords, but that also made Yaya get released from its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation].
While Tang Li Xue and Yaya were fighting against Little Loki, the ck and white striped fox had already silently retreated from there.
The ck and white striped fox might be extremely strong in the one-on-one battle, but its divine abilities were unsuitable for fighting more than one opponent.
Especially in a chaotic group battle like this, the w of its divine abilities would certainly be revealed soon, so it decided to y safe for now and retreated from here first.
Anyway, the ck and white striped fox thought that it would not be toote toe back and finish thest one who survive this battleter.
Meanwhile, Little Loki was facing a very difficult situation right now!
Yaya was relentlessly attacking it head-on while Tang Li Xue was always assisting Yaya and attacking it from behind!
Little Loki did not want to hurt Yaya or Tang Li Xue, so it could only dodge their attack with its [Instant Teleportation] or try to seal their attack and movement with [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation].
But this kind of situation was clearly bad for Little Loki since it would drain its energy rapidly!
Little Loki wanted to quickly retreat from there first.
However, Little Loki''s movement suddenly halted.
''Retreat?''
''Where to?''
Little Loki looked at Tang Li Xue and Yaya with a sorrowful expression.
''Isn''t this where I belong to?''
''Then why should I retreat from here?''
Yaya realized that Little Loki''s movement became more sluggish all of a sudden, and she decisively waved her [Vacuum sh] toward it!
PUUUUFFF~!!!
Little Loki tilted its tiny body to dodge Yaya''s [Vacuum sh], but it was half a step toote, so the [Vacuum sh] sliced a bit of flesh from its stomach!
Little Loki coughed out a few mouthfuls of its corrosive ck blood.
It pitifully raised its tiny head and stared at Yaya and Little Loki with teary eyes.
But Tang Li Xue''s next merciless words broke Little Loki''s heart and hope...
"Go, Yaya~! Finish it off right now~!" Tang Li Xue shouted with an excited tone.
Yaya nodded at Tang Li Xue while smiling happily, and she used its strongest move toward Little Loki without any hesitation!
[Cyclone Storm]!
Little Loki''s heart was filled with extreme disappointment and despair when it saw the excited expressions on Tang Li Xue and Yaya''s faces.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue was still cluelessly wandering around in the mirror maze.
"Damn it~! Just how big is this ce?! And why the hell is this ce look the same everywhere?!" Tang Li Xueined again while gritting her fangs in anger.
But after wandering back and forth for some time in confusion, Tang Li Xue finally saw another fox.
This time, she saw the previous maroon-colored fox again!
Tang Li Xue''s blood immediately raised to her head as her anger reached its peak when she saw this maroon-colored fox!
"This bast*rd was the one who made me separated from Little Loki and Yaya before~!" Tang Li Xue angrily said as she impatiently charged toward the maroon-colored fox.
The maroon-colored fox also quickly noticed Tang Li Xue from the mirror wall''s reflection.
Tang Li Xue could not differentiate which one was the real maroon-colored fox in the midst of so many mirror reflections, and she also could notunch any random attack since the mirror walls could reflect her attack back.
However, the previous battle against the cinnamon-colored fox gave her a brilliant idea to solve this problem!
Tang Li Xue woke up the deep blue Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian and entered [Perfect Assimtion] with it in an instant!
BWOOOOOOSSSHHH~!!!
The deep blue mes of Pride spread around quickly under Tang Li Xue''s control!
When the maroon-colored fox saw the deep blue mes of Pride approaching it, the maroon-colored fox quickly took a step back.
"There~!" Tang Li Xue shouted excitedly as she could sense the maroon-colored fox''s location by using her deep blue mes of Pride to grope around.
Tang Li Xue condensed a pair of deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back and swiftly flew toward the maroon-colored fox!
The maroon-colored fox''s expression became much colder when Tang Li Xue zoomed toward it!
Its maroon-colored eyes began to emit a bright purple glow!
Tang Li Xue''s movement suddenly halted as her topaz blue eyes also reflected the mysterious purple glow.
"Bast*rd, so this is the divine ability you used to control Yaya before?! Do you really think you can control me with it too?! Dream on~!" Tang Li Xue bellowed in anger.
Maroon-colored fox frowned in confusion as it thought: ''What is this crazy fox talking about? I am pretty sure this should be the first time I meet with her.''
Tang Li Xue struggled extremely hard to get out from the effect of the maroon-colored fox''s mind-control divine ability.
Unfortunately, it was futile since the maroon-colored fox has a much higher Spirit stat than Tang Li Xue.
Since she could not break free from the maroon-colored fox''s mind-control divine ability with force, Tang Li Xue decided to also use her eyes-type divine ability to counter it instead!
[Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes]!
Tang Li Xue''s right eye was suddenly glowing a majestic golden light!
BBBOOOOOOMMMMMMM~!!!
Maroon-colored fox''s body was instantly ignited by the golden mes!
Maroon-colored fox roared out loud and rolled on the floor in pain, even its mind-control divine ability was automatically canceled.
When Tang Li Xue regained control of her body back, she quickly asked the maroon-colored fox with a cold tone: "Tell me now, where did you bring Yaya?! Where is she right now?!"
"I... I really... do not know... what you are... talking about..." The maroon-colored fox replied weakly as the golden mes were burning its entire body.
''You damn liar~! You clearly controlled Yaya to attack me before, then Yaya disappeared after that! Where else would Yaya be if you did not bring her with you as a hostage?!" Tang Li Xue asked again with an even angrier tone.
But the maroon-colored fox alreadypletely burned to ashes and turned into a group of white light, then dissipated.
"Damn it~!" Tang Li Xue''s mood became even more depressed and gloomy when she did not get the answer she wanted from the maroon-colored fox until the end.
Just when Tang Li Xue pped her [Phoenix Wings] on her back to wander around again while thinking about what she needs to do to find Yaya and Little Loki as soon as possible...
Tang Li Xue identally saw another fox again.
While the ck and white striped fox also stared back at Tang Li Xue too.
"This fox... is strange..." Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as her deep blue me of Pride failed to grope the ck and white striped fox''s location as if this fox was actually inside the mirror wall.
After staring at Tang Li Xue for a while, the ck and white striped fox took a look around.
Then it suddenly ran toward one of the mirror walls and jumped out from that mirror wall!
"Wha... What the hell?! It can jump out from inside the mirror wall?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock and disbelief.
Chapter 545: Secret Passage to the Other Side of Mirror!
When Tang Li Xue was stunned in shock for a few moments, the ck and white striped fox already used its divine ability to attack Tang Li Xue without any hesitation!
[Light Reflection]!
BAAAAAAANNNGGG~!
Tang Li Xue''s body was thrown off several meters back until she crashed heavily onto the mirror wall behind her.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in pain as she slowly stood up again to face the ck and white striped fox.
Forget about dodging or blocking, Tang Li Xue could not even see this ck and white striped fox''s attack at all.
Fortunately, this ck and white striped fox''s attack was not lethal enough, and it did not even trigger Tang Li Xue''s [Sun And Moon Aegis] protection.
Meanwhile, a glimmer of excitement shed in the ck and white striped fox''s eyes when it stared at Tang Li Xue.
The ck and white striped fox thought that Tang Li Xue in front of it was the Doppelganger, so it thought that it would win this game if it killed this Tang Li Xue.
Of course, Tang Li Xue would not just stand idly just like that after this ck and white striped fox dared to suddenly attack her.
Tang Li Xue immediately urged the deep blue Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian to assimte with her again!
[Perfect Assimtion]!
BWOOOOOSSHHH~!
Her silver furry figure was instantly shrouded by extremely hot deep blue mes!
But the ck and white striped fox did not wait for Tang Li Xue to finish her assimtion with the Phoenix of Pride andunched another attack toward her for the second time!
[Light Reflection]!
This time, Tang Li Xue was already prepared, and even her [Extrasensory Perception] was working at maximum power to sense the ck and white striped fox''s attack, so she could quickly dodge or block it!
However, when her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed the ck and white striped fox''s attack that wasing toward her, that attack had already struck her body heavily without giving her any chance to react!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue received an even heavier blow than before and coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood, but she only staggered back by a few steps right now.
''This damn fox, what kind of divine ability is that?! Why the hell it can always hit me before I can do anything?!'' Tang Li Xue angrilyined in her heart.
Since the ck and white striped fox''s attacks could not be dodged or blocked, Tang Li Xue instantly decided tounch rapid attacks on the ck and white striped fox!
[Lightning Form]!
''So what if your attack could not be dodged or blocked?! Then I just need to never give you any chance to attack at all~!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she transformed into a silver streak of lightning and shed toward the ck and white striped fox in an instant!
[Lightning Form] and [Perfect Assimtion] were surprisingly working really well together!
Thisbination could bring out the true power of lightning and fire!
Moreover, they also granted Tang Li Xue unmatched speed plus devastating firepower!
Of course, Tang Li Xue''s current reaction speed could not keep up with [Lightning Form]''s speed without entering [Divine Possession] with Yaya, but that was eptable since Tang Li Xue did not n to fight against the ck and white striped fox with speed.
BBBOOOOOOOOMMMMM~!!!
Deep blue mes and silver lightning struck the ck and white striped fox''s figure until it create a great explosion!
Tang Li Xue thought she already killed the ck and white striped fox with her devastatingbination attack, so she canceled her [Lightning Form] and returned back to her fox form.
But the ck version of the ck and white striped fox suddenly appeared out of nothing!
[Shadow Reflection]!
After one second or so, the ck version of the ck and white striped fox returned to its usual form, and it waspletely unharmed by Tang Li Xue''s previousbination attack!
''What the hell~?! How could it...'' Tang Li Xue thought as she hastily tried to use [Lightning Form] again, but before she could do it...
The ck and white striped fox smiled coldly at Tang Li Xue as itunched its most powerful attack on Tang Li Xue!
[Light and Shadow Reflection]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (2/3)]
Tang Li Xue was blown away back heavily like a cannonball until she crashed onto the mirror wall behind her.
But it still did not stop, Tang Li Xue''s body bounced again and again onto the ceiling and floor, then onto several mirror walls.
Even though the protection from her [Sun And Moon Aegis] protected her from the deadly blow, she could feel her internal organs and all of her bones almost shattered to pieces from the several impacts after the attack.
The ck and white striped fox was once again surprised that Tang Li Xue could still survive after she received its [Light and Shadow Reflection], just like the previous ck kitten.
There was no doubt that the ck and white striped fox''s divine abilities were extremely mysterious and powerful, but it actually had some requirements to activate them.
Tang Li Xue slowly got up again while staggered in pain, while fresh blood kept flowing out from her mouth and her wounds.
Tang Li Xue quickly activated [Talisman of Regeneration] made from tree bark that was worn on her neck, so her wounds could recover even faster.
The [Talisman of Regeneration] made from tree bark was shattered to pieces after Tang Li Xue activated it, but its healing effect was already imbued into Tang Li Xue''s body.
Tang Li Xue also did not hesitate to activate the other three buff-type talismans too!
[Talisman of Giant Strength], [Talisman of Lightning Speed], and [Talisman of Iron Skin] activated!
Three other tree bark talismans worn on Tang Li Xue''s neck were shattered to pieces, but its effect was also already imbued on Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue transformed back into her [Lightning Form] and charged once again toward the ck and white striped fox!
The ck and white striped fox still did not take Tang Li Xue seriously at all as it used its divine ability for the second time to avoid Tang Li Xue''s attack.
[Shadow Reflection]!
The ck and white striped fox blended with the shadow and turnedpletely ck!
BBAAAAANNGG~!
Tang Li Xue in her silver lightning form struck the ck and white striped fox''s ck shadow body!
''Damn it~! This annoying divine ability again~!'' Tang Li Xue groaned in anger and annoyance.
Then Tang Li Xue instantly shed through the ck and white striped fox without any intention to stop at all!
Since she could not even hurt this scary striped fox, then she could only run away from it as quickly as possible right now!
Of course, the ck and white striped fox would not let Tang Li Xue get away so easily just like that!
[Light and Shadow Reflection]!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (1/3)]
The ck and white striped fox heavily struck Tang Li Xue''s back!
Even Tang Li Xue did not understand until now how could the ck and white striped fox''s attack still hit her while she was still in [Lightning Form].
However, that was not important right now since Tang Li Xue thought was only focusing on how to get away from the ck and white striped fox for now.
Using the impact of the ck and white striped fox''s extremely powerful attack, Tang Li Xue in her silver lightning form was shing forward even faster!
''Oh, crap~!'' Tang Li Xue muttered in her mind as she zoomed toward the mirror wall in front of her, and it was already toote for her to turn around.
Before the ck and white striped fox could react, Tang Li Xue in the form of silver lightning shed into the mirror wall and disappear.
Yes, Tang Li Xue actually entered the mirror wall by ident and reached the other side of the mirror maze!
Not every mirror wall could be used as a portal to enter the other side of the mirror maze.
Only the ck and white striped fox with its special light and dark type divine ability could probe it.
After entering the other side of the mirror wall, Tang Li Xue did not stop and kept running away from the ck and white striped fox!
She was really sure that the ck and white striped fox would not let her go that easily.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Little Loki could no longer stand still anymore, and its tiny figure was sucked into Yaya''s [Cyclone Storm]!
Yaya''s [Cyclone Storm] was condensed from countless dancing sharp wind des!
When Little Loki''s tiny figure entered the [Cyclone Storm], countless dancing sharp wind des were mercilessly slicing its tiny figure!
Actually, Little Loki could just use its [Heaven''s Devour] to swallow the entire [Cyclone Storm] easily.
But Little Loki still decided to not use its [Heaven''s Devour] until the end, even though it was on the verge of dying...
It was not because Little Loki was afraid of being found out by the powerful creature who supervises this entire space...
It was also not because of Tang Li Xue''s previous warning...
It was because Little Loki did not want Tang Li Xue to be suspected of being involved with it.
Little Loki did not want to drag Tang Li Xue and got her marked as the viiness, the master of Evil Fiend Beast...
Maybe Little Loki must pay with its life for that, but Little Loki felt that it was worth it and did not regret it at all.
Chapter 546: Confusing Battle!
Chapter 546: Confusing Battle!
The [Cyclone Storm]st for a few minutes before it dispersed.
Little Loki fell weakly onto the mirror floor.
Its entire tiny body was filled with countless wounds, and its ck blood was seeping out from every part of its body.
There was a regretful smile on Little Loki''s bloody expression as it secretly wondered if Tang Li Xue and Yaya would be sadter after they knew that it was not the Doppelganger they were hoping for.
Would they cry when it diester?
Little Loki sighed in resignation as it closed its eyes with a peaceful expression, as it thought that it was such an irony that an Evil Fiend Beast''s cub like itself actually has a soft heart for such a stupid master.
Little Loki prayed in its heart that it would not meet with this kind of stupid master anymore in its next incarnation so that it could live much longer in its next life.
But right at this moment, Tang Li Xue''s speech, when Little Loki was just born, echoed in its mind...
"I cannot give you everything you wanted before and maybe so in the future too. But at the very least, I can promise that I will never betray you if you never betray me first. I will never try to kill you as long as you never try to kill me either. I don''t care even if the entire world bes your enemies, I will do my best to protect you."
As Evil Fiend Beast''s cub, Little Loki knew it was fated to be alone in this cold and cruel world, but this speech gave it a glimmer of warm light.
Little Loki was never afraid of everything even death itself before, but right now, Little Loki suddenly felt very afraid that it would really never meet or see its stupid master again.
Little Loki used itsst strength to slowly open its eyes to see its stupid master for onest time, but it could only see a very blurry scene.
It silently prayed in its heart: ''I never believe in any Demons and Gods... But I still wish that I can stay longer by my stupid master''s side in my next life...''
Little Loki was dying, so it could no longer move or let out any sound, but it still stubbornly trying to keep its eyes open to etch its stupid master''s image for onest time.
d¦Ásv¦Ål
Yaya flew closer to Little Loki, but when she waved her tiny hand at the dying Little Loki tounch her finishing attack toward it, she suddenly halted her move in hesitation.
Little Loki''s eyelids got heavier and heavier, and it finally could not hold on anymore as its consciousness faded away.
"Go, Yaya~! Finish it now and we will win this game~!" Tang Li Xue urged Yaya with an excited tone.
Yaya still hesitated for a few moments, but her expression became determined after she heard Tang Li Xue''s encouragement.
Just when Yaya almost used her [Vacuum sh] on Little Loki...
RUMBLE~!!! RUMBLE~!!! BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
A streak of silver lightning suddenly struck down and another Tang Li Xue appeared right between Yaya and Little Loki!
"Little Loki~! Please, hold on!" the real Tang Li Xue anxiously approached the dying Little Loki and hastily used her [Talisman of Regeneration] on Little Loki.
Another tree bark talisman on Tang Li Xue''s neck was shattered to pieces, but the effect of [Talisman of Regeneration] already seeped into Little Loki''s body.
Unfortunately, Little Loki was injured too badly this time, so it was not easy for it to recover even with the healing effect from Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Regeneration].
"Tsk~! Yaya, look~! That Doppelganger called itsrade~! Let''s kill both of them~!" The Doppelganger Tang Li Xue tried to incite Yaya again.
Meanwhile, Yaya felt extremely confused right now.
So, when she heard Doppelganger Tang Li Xue''s words, she reflexively raised her tiny hand and prepared tounch an attack on Little Loki and the real Tang Li Xue.
"YAYA~!!!" The real Tang Li Xue shouted with a stern tone filled with rage.
Tang Li Xue''s angry stare made hesitating Yaya flinched and did not dare to do anything anymore.
Tang Li Xue did not have any mood to even scold Yaya right now because Little Loki''s condition had not improved at all, and it was still in extremely critical condition.
Tang Li Xue realized that her [Talisman of Regeneration] was far from enough to rescue Little Loki, so she summoned out her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], and made it merge with her.
The [Golden Winged Serpent] became a pair of golden gauntlets wrapped on Tang Li Xue''s front paws.
Then Tang Li Xue used the healing skill from her [Golden Winged Serpent] on Little Loki!
[Healing Bubble]!
Little Loki''s tiny figure was instantly wrapped in [Healing Bubble].
However, Little Loki was still not getting better at all.
"Damn it! Even this is still not enough?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anxiousness.
Even though she was extremely anxious, but her mind was still calm because of her skill such as: [Indomitable Will], [Intense Focus], and [Improved Concentration]
Tang Li Xue''s mind was working quickly, and she remembered that Yaya also have a healing skill.
"Yaya,e here~! Use your [Healing Gust] on Little Loki, hurry up~!" Tang Li Xue said as she turned to face Yaya.
Yaya was still in confusion about which Tang Li Xue was the real one, so she was only hovering there without doing anything.
Watching the hesitating Yaya, Tang Li Xue''s temper red up again, and she shouted to Yaya with a stern tone filled with rage again: "YAYA~!!!"
Yaya was startled by Tang Li Xue''s shout, and she was almost bawling out loud, but she did not dare to cry at this moment.
Yaya flew closer to Little Loki with teary eyes and cast her [Healing Gust] on Little Loki too.
Little Loki''s condition gradually stabilized under the effect of [Talisman of Regeneration], [Healing Bubble], and [Healing Gust]. The injuries on its entire body were also slowly recovering.
The Doppelganger Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in disappointment.
It knew that it could no longer control Yaya with the real Tang Li Xue here, so it decided to make a move by itself!
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
The Doppelganger Tang Li Xue suddenly appeared right behind the real Tang Li Xue andunched a sneak attack on her!
[Moon Shattering Strike]!
The real Tang Li Xue already sensed the sneak attack with her [Extrasensory Perception], so she quickly activated her [Lightning Form]!
BZZZZT~! BZZZZT~! BZZZZT~!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure transformed into a streak of silver lightning and easily dodged the Doppelganger''s sneak attack!
But the Doppelganger sneered at Tang Li Xue as it also activated the same divine ability as her!
[Lightning Form]!
BAAAAANGGG~! BAAAAANGGG~! BAAAAANGGG~!
Two streaks of silver lightning shed again and again rapidly in the air!
Even Yaya became even more dizzy when she saw the two identical Tang Li Xue fighting against each other fiercely like this.
Right at this moment, the third Tang Li Xue suddenly appeared right behind Yaya with an evil sneer on its face!
[Moon Shattering Strike]!
BAAAAAAANNGG~!
Yaya''s small figure was thrown off tens of meters until she crashed onto the mirror wall!
Yaya spurted out several mouthfuls of blood and even the transparent fairy wings on her back were broken because of the third Tang Li Xue''s sneak attack.
Yes, this third Tang Li Xue was actually the Doppelganger''s perfect copy from its [Twin Moons] divine ability!
"Yaya~!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a worried tone.
BAAAAAAANNGG~!
But when she wanted to fly to Yaya to check her condition, the Doppelganger Tang Li Xue forcefully pushed her away instead!
The Doppelganger in silver lightning form pushed Tang Li Xue in her silver lightning form too, toward the mirror wall and dragged her along the mirror wall!
Meanwhile, the Doppelganger''s perfect copy mercilessly waved its paw at the unconscious Little Loki to kill it!
[Moonlight sh]!
But before its attack couldnd on the unconscious Little Loki, a [Hurricane Barrier] suddenly appeared around Little Loki to protect it from any harm!
Yaya who stilly down weakly on the mirror floor, raised her tiny hand to cast [Hurricane Barrier] on Little Loki before the lethal attack from Doppelganger''s perfect copy could hit Little Loki.
The Doppelganger''s perfect copy clicked its tongue in annoyance as it stared at Yaya with a pair of cold eyes filled with killing intent.
The Doppelganger''s perfect copy transformed into its [Lightning Form] too and shed toward Yaya!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in exasperation since she could not get away from the Doppelganger.
Just when Doppelganger''s perfect copy in its [Lightning Form] almost struck Yaya...
"Yaya~! [Divine Possession]!" Tang Li Xue shouted to Yaya.
At that moment, Yaya transformed into a green light and flew toward Tang Li Xue.
*Ding!
[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]
Tang Li Xue swiftly pushed away the Doppelganger and shed toward Little Loki!
Tang Li Xue canceled her [Lightning Form] when she reached Little Loki and hastily checked Little Loki''s current condition.
After making sure that Little Loki had be much better than before, Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and put Little Loki into her system''s space.
But right at this time, the Doppelganger and its perfect copy had already reached Tang Li Xue''s right and left side in their [Lightning Form]!
BBOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
Unexpectedly, the pincer attack of Doppelganger and its perfect copy failed to even touch Tang Li Xue!
[Hurricane Barrier]!
Under the protection of [Hurricane Barrier], the lightning attack from the Doppelganger and its perfect copy was blocked and dispersed!
Chapter 547: Close Call!
Chapter 547: Close Call!
After blocking thebined lightning attack from the Doppelganger and its perfect copy, Tang Li Xue had already prepared tounch her counterattack on both of them!
[Cyclone Storm]!
A huge pir of hurricane instantly trapped the Doppelganger and its perfect copy who were still in their [Lightning Form]!
The Doppelganger and its perfect copy in [Lightning Form] were flying in a circle again and again inside the huge hurricane until they were dizzy.
But Tang Li Xue''s [Cyclone Storm] still could not hurt them while they were still in [Lightning Form].
''Tsk~! This [Lightning Form] is really annoying as hell~! I wonder if I use [Mirror of the Moon] to copy another divine ability to rece my [Lightning Form], would their [Lightning Form] also disappear and be reced by another divine ability too?!'' Tang Li Xue started to ponder carefully on how to defeat her Doppelganger.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue really has a huge headache on how to kill this Doppelganger right now.
Do not forget that Tang Li Xue still has [Sun And Moon Aegis] divine ability, so Tang Li Xue was very sure that this Doppelganger of hers definitely also has it!
Three times protection of deadly blow for Doppelganger and its perfect copy... That was equal to six times deadly blow protection!
Plus [Damage Transfer] skill from [Twin Moons] divine ability, it was mean that this Doppelganger has seven lives!
So, if Tang Li Xue wanted to win this treasure game, she must kill this Doppelganger eight times!
''Damn it~! Why haven''t I realized until now that I am so hard to kill?!'' Tang Li Xue groaned in her heart.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and thought: ''Sigh... Let''s think about thatter... The most important thing to do right now is how to get rid of that annoying [Lightning Form]?!''
There was no doubt that this [Lightning Form] was an extremely overpowered divine ability Tang Li Xue had ever copied until now, but it became the biggest obstacle for Tang Li Xue to defeat this Doppelganger right now!
With [Lightning Form], Tang Li Xue could not even find a way to hurt the Doppelganger until now. Moreover, [Lightning Form] also gave the Doppelganger the ability to retreat and run away at any time it wants.
What? Do you think Tang Li Xue could also use her [Lightning Form] to chase after that Doppelgangerter?
Don''t forget that Doppelganger still has [Swap] skill, and it could exchange location with its perfect copy any time it wants!
If it decided to use [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment] to hide after it ran awayter, even Tang Li Xue would not be able to find it again!
Luckily, this Doppelganger could not enter [Divine Possession] mode, [Perfect Assimtion] mode, or [War Goddess Mode], if not, Tang Li Xue would already run away from here long ago.
''It also seems this Doppelganger cannot copy and use my [Regalia of Eclipse]... No, even [Sun Dragon ws], [Sun Dragon Fangs], and [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes], this Doppelganger probably could not use any of them too since all of theme from my bloodline awakening.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
In short, what this Doppelganger could do was the same as Tang Li Xue''s [Twin Moons] perfect copy.
Except that this Doppelganger could also use [Twin Moons] divine ability to summon its perfect copy while Tang Li Xue''s [Twin Moons] divine ability was still in cooldown right now.
While Tang Li Xue was still thinking hard to find a way to kill the Doppelganger to win this game, the Doppelganger already found a way to get out from the [Cyclone Storm]!
The Doppelganger condensed several flying w weapons with [Energy Maniption] and by using them as cables, the Doppelganger and its perfect copy managed to get out from [Cyclone Storm] with their [Lightning Form]!
''Damn, they are also so smart?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in amazement.
Just when Tang Li Xue prepared tounch another attack toward them...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The floor under their feet suddenly shook violently!
''This is... an earthquake?! No, it should be the skill or divine ability of another fox!'' Tang Li Xue quickly concluded.
Tang Li Xue quickly transformed into a streak of silver lightning with her [Lightning Form] to confront the iing Doppelganger and its perfect copy!
BBBOOOOOOMMM~!!! BBBOOOOOOMMM~!!! BBBOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Three streaks of silver lightning shed violently again and again in the air!
But the floor suddenly cracked and raised to form a wall to separate the three of them!
"What the hell does this fox want to do?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in puzzlement.
The stone-armored fox that appeared all of a sudden between them was wreaking havoc on everything indiscriminately!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The cracks were also spreading on the surrounding mirror walls and ceiling very fast!
''Damn it~! Don''t tell me that this crazy fox is nning to bury all of us here at once!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she shuddered in fright.
Tang Li Xue immediately decided to get away as quickly as possible from here!
While still in her [Lightning Form], Tang Li Xue shed away quickly from there while carefully avoiding the fallen debris!
She was still in [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya, so her reaction speed was several times higher than usual thanks to Yaya''s [Extreme Speed] divine ability.
Moreover, she also has [Wind God''s Eyes] that granted dynamic vision and the ability to predict a few seconds ahead of time!
BBBAAAAAAAANNGGG~!
However, the Doppelganger''s perfect copy suddenly crashed onto Tang Li Xue to prevent her from getting away from there!
It seems the Doppelganger nned to use its perfect copy to drag Tang Li Xue to die together there!
Anyway, that was only its perfect copy, so it did not lose anything by sacrificing it to die together with Tang Li Xue!
''Damn it! This bast*rd!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Right at this moment, the ceiling and the surrounding mirror walls were already started falling apart!
But the Doppelganger''s perfect copy in [Lightning Form] still kept pestering Tang Li Xue to slow her down!
Suddenly, Yaya canceled [Divine Possession] with Tang Li Xue!
"Yaya, what the hell are you doing?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in disbelief.
Yaya smiled as she pushed Tang Li Xue away with her [Cyclone Storm]!
When the Doppelganger''s perfect copy wanted to chase after Tang Li Xue, Yaya started to entangle against it instead!
Tang Li Xue instantly realized what was in Yaya''s mind!
''This little naughty child~! How dare she do something crazy like this even when some of her wings are still broken?!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in extreme anger.
It seems Yaya also felt extremely guilty because of what she had done to Little Loki before, so it also became one of the reasons why she decided to make an irrational choice like this.
Countless pieces of huge debris fell down from above!
The surrounding mirror walls copsed and fell down!
But Tang Li Xue did not care about them!
Tang Li Xue merged with the Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian and entered [Perfect Assimtion] mode in an instant!
[me Tiger Roaring ws]!
The image of the White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes was condensed behind Tang Li Xue!
ROOOOOOAAAAAAAARRR~!!!
The deafening tiger roar echoed through the entire mirror maze!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The deep blue tiger ws easily tore away Yaya''s [Cyclone Storm] and shed countless falling debris to ashes!
When Tang Li Xue wanted to fly back to take Yaya back with her, a small ck silhouette suddenly jumped out!
The small ck silhouette instantly teleported to Yaya, and both of them disappeared together in less than one breath!
"You are... Little Loki~! So, you are already awake!" Tang Li Xue shouted in shock and delight when she sensed Little Loki already standing on the top of her head with Yaya in its mouth!
Little Loki spat out Yaya while staring adoringly at Tang Li Xue, but it quickly put on its usual smug expression again.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to kiss Little Loki so badly right now, but this was clearly not the time for that.
Tang Li Xue condensed a pair of deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back, and she even activated the [Wings of Freedom] effect to increase her flight speed even more!
Tang Li Xue was flying swiftly to get away from there while Little Loki used its [Scythe w Qi] to destroy all the debris and obstacle that fall onto Tang Li Xue!
d¦Ásv¦Ål m
However, the Doppelganger''s perfect copy still had not given up and quickly chased after Tang Li Xue again from behind!
Tang Li Xue could already sense with her [Extrasensory Perception] that the Doppelganger''s perfect copy quickly caught up to her in its [Lightning Form].
When the Doppelganger''s perfect copy almost crashed onto Tang Li Xue from behind, Little Loki immediately turned around and used its skill to lock the perfect copy''s movement!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]!
The perfect copy''s [Lightning Form] was canceled in that instant, and it returned back to its fox form.
Moreover, Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] locked all of its senses and its movement, so the Doppelganger''s perfect copy could no longer do anything right now!
The Doppelganger''s perfect copy could only helplessly fall down along with the ruins and debris.
But Tang Li Xue could sense with her [Extrasensory Perception] that the Doppelganger''s perfect copy suddenly disappeared.
It seems the Doppelganger decided to un-summon its perfect copy with [Twin Moons] divine ability before it could be buried under the debris and ruins.
Chapter 548: Mutual Deception!
Chapter 548: Mutual Deception!
After flying for more than fifteen minutes, Tang Li Xue finally managed to get out of the copsed mirror maze''s range.
On her way, Tang Li Xue estimated that the mirror maze might copse for more than two hundred miles because of the stone-armored fox''s divine ability.
''That was a truly dangerous move! But it must be also pretty exhausting for that stone-armored fox to use that move. If not, that stone-armored fox might already demolish this entire mirror maze to kill the Doppelganger and us!'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Tang Li Xue hastilynded back on the mirror floor after she made sure that the surrounding was safe, and she quickly checked Yaya''s condition.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she found that Yaya was all right and only fell asleep because of exhaustion, but she still decided to use one of her [Talisman of Regeneration] to heal Yaya''s wounds.
Tang Li Xue patted Little Loki''s tiny head gently and praised it: "Good job, Little Loki~! Thatst one is really an awesome move!"
d¦Ásv¦Ål
Little Loki closed its eyes infort while enjoying Tang Li Xue''s gentle rub.
"Sigh... Little Loki, I really appreciate that you take my warning to heart. But you should still use your true ability when you are in extreme danger like before!" Tang Li Xue scolded Little Loki, but her tone was light since she also med herself for putting Little Loki and Yaya in a dangerous situation.
Tang Li Xue thought that she could certainly prevent that situation from happening if she was more attentive at that time.
"All right, let''s stop thinking about what had already happened before... The most important thing for us to do right now is to find a way to kill that Doppelganger!" Tang Li Xue murmured in a serious tone.
If they were outside, Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour] could certainly devour and kill any kind of unkible opponent.
No matter what kind of immortal, ghost, demon, or god, once they got swallowed by Taotie, then it was over.
But they certainly could not do that in this Foxes Hunting Festival!
"Damn it~! The easiest way is to lure that Doppelganger to imitate another fox instead!" Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
However, Tang Li Xue doubted that the Doppelganger would change into another fox after it found out about Tang Li Xue''s life-saving cards.
"All right... For now, I need to try to copy another divine ability to rece [Lightning Form]... I hope the Doppelganger''s [Lightning Form] will also disappearter." Tang Li Xue muttered as she put the sleeping Yaya into her system''s space.
Little Loki also quickly jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s back before Tang Li Xue dashed away with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
In the previous battle, Tang Li Xue faced a lot of trouble when she fought against the Doppelganger and its perfect copy in [Lightning Form].
After pondering carefully, Tang Li Xue was quite sure that she could defeat the Doppelganger if it did not have [Lightning Form]!
While Little Loki should also have no problem dealing with the Doppelganger''s perfect copy if it also did not have [Lightning Form]!
But if her n backfired and the Doppelganger still has [Lightning Form] while she already reced her [Lightning Form]... At that time, Tang Li Xue thought that she might have no other choice than to unleash herst hidden trump card, the [Regalia of Eclipse]!
Tang Li Xue ran around for more than an hour in this confusing mirror maze, but she still failed to find any trace of the other fox or the Doppelganger.
Nyaoooww~! (So Huunggryy~!)
Tang Li Xue halted her step when she heard Little Loki''s voice.
"Oh, right~! Ipletely forgot about your food, Little Loki!" Tang Li Xue eximed as she shook her head in guilt.
Different from Tang Li Xue and Yaya which could hold their hunger even for a few months, Little Loki would always feel hungry as Taotie''s cub, and it need to eat high-energy stuff like beast cores regrly to ease its hunger.
But where Tang Li Xue could find beast cores in this Foxes Hunting Festival since all foxes would be eliminated and sent back when they were killed!
"Aihhh~! What to do?! I am really sorry, Little Loki... But please hold on for some time... After we kill that Doppelganger, we should get something from winning this game. Yes, that prize will be your food and you can eat itter, okay? So, please just hold on for now." Tang Li Xue tried tofort Little Loki.
Little Loki nodded its tiny head in understanding.
It also knew that Tang Li Xue could not bring anything into this Foxes Hunting Festival, but Little Loki was also helpless right now since it would feel extremely hungry after the battle, especially since it suffer such grievous wounds before.
Tang Li Xue subconsciously thought what would happen if Little Loki swallowed the foxes in this Foxes Hunting Festival, would they really die and disappear forever, or would they only get eliminated and sent back to where they came from as usual?
''Well, probably not... Taotie''s [Heaven''s Devour] is too heaven-defying, so I am pretty sure Little Loki would really kill them if it swallowed them.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
This was also the reason why Tang Li Xue did not let Little Loki use [Heaven''s Devour] here... If some foxes really died in this Foxes Hunting Festival, the problem would certainly be huge, and they could easily trace them back to Little Lokiter.
''Sigh... It seems the only way is to win more treasure games and get more precious treasures to feed Little Lokiter...'' Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation.
That was really easy to say but Tang Li Xue herself could barely win the previous two treasure games and almost get killed many times...
When Tang Li Xue was in deep thought, she actually bumped into the ck and white striped fox again!
"Damn, it is you again?! Why are you keep chasing after me?! Just so you know, I am not the Doppelganger!" Tang Li Xue said to the ck and white striped fox with an angry tone.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue really did not want to fight against this ck and white striped fox.
It was not that Tang Li Xue was afraid of this ck and white striped fox, but because its divine abilities were too annoying to deal with.
The ck and white striped fox took a nce at Little Loki for a few moments before replying: "I know you are not the Doppelganger... I find you to make a deal with you."
Tang Li Xue was surprised, but she still did not lower her guard as she asked back: "Deal? What kind of deal do you want from me?"
"You already faced the Doppelganger before, aren''t you? So, you should already know how troublesome it is, right?" The ck and white striped fox spoke with an inquiry tone.
"Yes, so what? Can you stop being so long-winded and just tell me what you want?!" Tang Li Xue asked again impatiently.
The ck and white striped fox smiled and exined: "That Doppelganger not only can imitate our appearance, but it can also perfectly imitate all of our divine abilities. Just from this, any foxes would find it hard to defeat it since it is the same as facing ourselves."
"But it would be a different matter if several foxes are working together to kill it. How about we work together to kill that Doppelganger?" The ck and white striped fox invited Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue felt a bit interested when she heard the ck and white striped fox''s suggestion.
However, Tang Li Xue still warily asked: "Then what about the winning reward for killing the Doppelgangerter? Should we split it in two?"
The ck and white striped fox shook its head and muttered: "That will not work since we will be teleported to a random location after winning the game."
"Our deal would be like this... We must never attack each other, and we will work together to defeat that Doppelganger. As for the treasure reward... Of course, it depends on whonds thest hit to kill the Doppelgangerter." The ck and white striped fox told Tang Li Xue about their deal.
Tang Li Xue secretly snorted in her heart.
This ck and white striped fox clearly thought of her as a fool!
Tang Li Xue already fought against this ck and white striped fox before, and she knew how fast and unpredictable its divine abilities were!
Talking about thest killing hit, this ck and white striped fox clearly had full confidence in its divine abilities to kill the Doppelganger first before Tang Li Xue could do it!
But it did not mean that Tang Li Xue has no hope at all...
Especially since Tang Li Xue already nned to rece her [Lightning Form] with another divine ability as soon as possible!
And this ck and white striped fox''s divine abilities were clearly her best target!
"All right, deal~!" Tang Li Xue nodded at the ck and white striped fox.
"Good~! Let''s find the Doppelganger together!" The ck and white striped fox spoke as it smiled at Tang Li Xue.
"Just follow me... I already mark the Doppelganger with my skill. I know its location, but this mirror maze is so confusing..." Tang Li Xue told to the ck and white striped fox.
Yes, Tang Li Xue already put a tracker on the Doppelganger with her [Mapping Sense] skill before, but it was still not easy to find a way toward the Doppelganger in this confusing mirror maze.
Chapter 549: Chapter 549: Three Foxes Team!
Chapter 549: Three Foxes Team!
Tang Li Xue continued her way toward the Doppelganger with the ck and white striped fox, but she did not dare to let down her guard even for one second.
On her way, Tang Li Xue still carefully kept some distance from the ck and white striped fox while observing its every movement carefully with her [Extrasensory Perception].
After all, the verbal agreement meant nothing at all, and the ck and white striped fox could break their deal andunch a sneak attack on Tang Li Xue from behind at any time.
Of course, doing so right now would not bring any benefit at all, so Tang Li Xue did not say anything to question the ck and white striped fox.
Even Little Loki also silently red at the ck and white striped fox with a pair of cold eyes since this fox was the one who injured it so badly before.
Surprisingly, the ck and white striped fox was much more useful than Tang Li Xue had thought since it could detect the hidden passage to the other side of the mirror maze with its divine ability, so their journey to find the Doppelganger was much smoother than before.
After running together for half an hour or so while taking several shortcuts from the other side of the mirror maze and then running back and forth between two spaces, Tang Li Xue and the ck and white striped fox finally bumped into another fox.
Yes, it was actually the previous stone-armored fox!
"This damn bast*rd is the one who almost killed me and Yaya before~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger, but when she almostunched an attack on the stone-armored fox and the stone-armored fox also wanted to attack her, the ck and white striped fox quickly stopped them.
"Stop~! Wait a minute, everyone~!" The ck and white striped fox shouted as it stood between Tang Li Xue and the stone-armored fox.
Tang Li Xue halted her move when she heard the ck and white striped fox''s shout, but the stone-armored fox did not care and used its divine ability to attack both of them!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The mirror floor shook violently, and several stone spikes suddenly shot out from the ground!
But both Tang Li Xue and the ck and white striped fox had already prepared their respective skill and ability to dodge them!
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
[Shadow Reflection]!
With [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], Tang Li Xue did not only flicker to avoid the stone spikes attack but she also dashed forward to swiftly approach the stone-armored fox!
BAAAAAAAANNGG~!
The stone-armored fox quickly erected a thick stone wall to block Tang Li Xue before she could reach the stone-armored fox!
Tang Li Xue could only halt her step. She sensed that she could not use her [Ethereal Form] to pass through this stone wall since it had been imbued with thick earth elements.
But it did not mean that Little Loki also could not pass through this stone wall like Tang Li Xue!
With its [Instant Teleportation], Little Loki teleported right beside the stone-armored fox and activated its ability to lock the stone-armored fox''s movement and abilities!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]!
In that instant, the stone-armored fox''s vision turned dark, and it could no longer move!
Even the stone wall and stone spikes it created just now began to crumble apart without the control of the stone-armored fox''s divine ability.
"Great job, Little Loki~! Now, let''s finish it off quickly, so we can continue our journey!" Tang Li Xue excitedly praised Little Loki, and she wanted to give a thumbs up to Little Loki, but... well, her paws did not have any thumbs...
Tang Li Xue pounced toward the stone-armored fox and aimed her paw at its head!
[Moon Shattering Strike]!
While Little Loki was also attacking the stone-armored fox from the right side!
[Scythe w Qi]!
BAAAAAAAANGGG~! BAAAAAAAANGGG~!
Both Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Shattering Strike] and Little Loki''s [Scythe w Qi] managed tond on the stone-armored fox''s head and body, but they failed to leave any wounds on the stone-armored fox!
On the contrary, both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were thrown away by the counter reflection from the stone-armored fox''s defense-type divine ability.
The stone-armored fox shook its head as the effect of Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] wear off, and it regained back its senses and movement.
"Damn it~! What the hell with that defense?! It can even block my [Moon Shattering Strike]?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock and disbelief.
Her [Moon Shattering Strike] was a defense pration attack, so normally, it could pass through any defense and explode the power inside the target''s body.
Tang Li Xue really did not understand why her [Moon Shattering Strike] failed to hurt this stone-armored fox.
Even Little Loki''s [Scythe w Qi] only managed to leave some white marks on the stone-armored fox''s body.
"Sigh... It is useless. That stone fox''s defense is unbreakable. No matter what we do to it, we will never be able to hurt it at all as long as it still touches the ground." The ck and white striped fox exined with a calm tone.
Tang Li Xue was dumbfounded when she heard the ck and white striped fox''s exnation.
''What the hell is that divine ability?! Isn''t it too overpowered?! And how could you know about that?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in amazement.
"Because I already fought with it for more than half an hour before... I cannot do anything to hurt it but it also cannot do anything to hurt me." The ck and white striped fox replied tantly to Tang Li Xue.
The stone-armored fox red angrily at Tang Li Xue and Little Loki and prepared tounch another attack on them, but the ck and white striped fox quickly warned it: "All right, that is enough! We are only wasting our time by fighting between ourselves here!"
The ck and white striped fox stared coldly at the stone-armored fox and continued to say: "Don''t think that you are invincible because of your divine ability! I or she alone might not be able to hurt you, but it would be a different matter if we worked together to kill you!"
d¦Ásv¦Ål
The stone-armored fox stared at the ck and white striped fox and started to hesitate.
The ck and white striped fox quickly took this chance to persuade the stone-armored fox and said to it: "You should already realize it too. This treasure game is a kind of trap for us. Because it will take too long for us to kill the Doppelganger alone."
"Honestly, I prefer us to work together to take down the Doppelganger as soon as possible, so I can quickly join other treasure games and win several other precious treasures from them. I think all of you should think so too, right?" The ck and white striped fox questioned the stone-armored fox and Tang Li Xue.
After thinking for a while, Tang Li Xue and the stone-armored fox also agreed with the ck and white striped fox''s opinion.
This treasure game was clearly a trap for them to waste their time...
From the confusing mirror maze to the hidden other side of the mirror maze, also the Doppelganger that could disguise as anyone and imitate all of their divine abilities...
Just how much time they would need to spend if they want to hunt and kill the Doppelganger alone?!
Tang Li Xue finally understood the ck and white striped fox''s intention.
In short, this ck and white striped fox just wanted to finish this treasure game quickly, so it could participate in several other treasure games.
Because if each of them stubbornly wanted to hunt the Doppelganger alone, they would miss several other treasure games instead because of this time-wasting treasure game!
The stone-armored fox finally agreed to join their team under the ck and white striped fox persuasion.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth secretly twitched in frustration: ''These damn arrogant predator-level foxes really think differently from me!''
Yes, Tang Li Xue realized that when she always thought hard about how to win the treasure game, the predator-level foxes always thought about how to win more treasure games in a more efficient way and in the shortest time possible.
''Humph~! So what?! Didn''t I still manage to snatch two precious treasures even against predator-level foxes before?!'' Tang Li Xue smugly thought.
Then she suddenly got curious about how many treasures these other two foxes had already obtained from winning the treasure games until now, so she decided to ask them about it...
"Not many, I only got eleven treasures until now. That is the reason why I must work harder to win more games and stop wasting time in this game." The ck and white striped fox replied with its usual nd tone.
The stone-armored fox red enviously at the ck and white striped fox and replied with an unwilling tone: "I only got six treasures for now... But I will definitely get more than you in the end!"
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Then both the ck and white striped fox and the stone-armored fox stared at Tang Li Xue waiting for her answer...
Tang Li Xue put a nk expression and shamelessly said: "Well, I only got a little less than both of you...Yes, only a little bit less... Okay, let''s stop talking and run quicker, so we can kill that Doppelganger as soon as possible!"
Tang Li Xue suddenly used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and increased her running speed until she turned into a sh.
Even Little Loki who still dozing off on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head was almost fell down because of it.
Chapter 550: Chapter 550: The Doppelgangers Frightening Prowess!
Chapter 550: The Doppelganger''s Frightening Prowess!
Tang Li Xue was very frustrated and silentlyined in her heart: ''Damn it~! Why the hell am I the one who gets ''face-pped'' by others?! As the protagonist with System, should I be the one who face-pping others instead?!''
The ck-white striped fox and the stone-armored fox also hastily increased their speed to chase after Tang Li Xue from behind.
After ten more minutes of sprinting on their way, they finally approached the location of the Doppelganger, so Tang Li Xue asked about their n before they charged toward the Doppelganger: "Err, do we need to devise some ns to defeat that Doppelganger quickly?"
The ck-white striped fox and the stone-armored fox stared at Tang Li Xue strangely.
"What kind of sh*tty n do we need to think of?! Let''s just st that counterfeit face to pieces as quickly as we can!" The stone-armored fox crudely replied.
The ck and white striped fox nodded its head and added: "There are already three... no, there are four of us while that Doppelganger is only alone. I believe we can definitely defeat it without any difficulty."
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched slightly as she suddenly felt that this team was very unreliable right now.
But it could not be helped since each of them could not trust each other at all...
No matter how perfect or how good the n they have, it was probably impossible to execute it since they did not even have any basic trust in each other, and each of them could backstab the others at any time...
Tang Li Xue did not even bother to say anything to them, but she still told Little Loki to be extra careful with these two foxes even in the middle of the fightter.
The three of them immediatelyunched a sudden attack toward the Doppelganger the moment they saw it!
[Earth Spikes]!
[Light Reflection]!
[Energy Maniption], the Rain of Swords!
nd¦Ásv¦Ål
In that instant, the Doppelganger who was still in Tang Li Xue''s form was bombarded by their attacks at once!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Several [Earth Spikes] stabbed out from the floor onto the Doppelganger''s body!
While [Light Reflection] struck down the Doppelganger''s body heavily like a hammer!
And Tang Li Xue condensed dozen of white swords that fell mercilessly onto the Doppelganger''s body!
Despite all of their fierce attacks struck the Doppelganger, it could still stand up again and red at them angrily.
"Impossible~! How could it still survive after receiving all of our attacks?!" The stone-armored fox eximed in disbelief.
Even the ck and white striped fox frowned with a solemn expression.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
''Err... should I tell them about my [Sun and Moon Aegis] before we start attacking the Doppelganger before? Urgh... No, no, no... That is definitely an impossible thing to do since it is the same as telling them about my weakness!'' Tang Li Xue immediately denied her idea.
Anyway, Tang Li Xue already activated her [Mirror of the Moon] just now to copy another divine ability to rece her [Lightning Form].
[Mirror of the Moon] activated!
[Copy Start]!
Name: [Mother Earth''s Gift]!
Type: Divine Ability
[Copy Completed]!
Tang Li Xue was 80 to 90 percent sure that the Doppelganger could no longer use [Lightning Form] anymore right now.
Because from what Tang Li Xue had deduced so far, the Doppelganger''s state would always imitate its target''s state, so if Tang Li Xue suddenly got a new divine ability right now, the Doppelganger would get it too when it was in her form... Well, at least she really hoped so...
"Watch out~!" The ck and white striped fox warned them as it rolled to the right side.
Tang Li Xue also swiftly used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge toward the left side!
Only the stone-armored fox stood still without moving at all.
The Doppelganger''s perfect copy suddenly appeared behind them with an image of a fierce White Tiger behind it!
[Tiger Roaring sh]!
ROOOOOOOOAAAARRR~!!!
The deafening tiger roar echoed through the mirror maze as the image of the fierce white tiger shed its w toward the three of them!
But since the ck-white striped fox and Tang Li Xue had already dodged to the side, the destructive vibration force from the White Tiger''s ws only attacked the stone-armored fox!
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Unfortunately for the Doppelganger''s perfect copy, it actually targeted the wrong opponent this time!
The stone-armored fox has an unbreakable defense, so its [Tiger Roaring sh] failed to even scratch the stone-armored fox''s body.
On the contrary, the Doppelganger''s perfect copy was slightly injured and sted back for several meters because of the reflect attack effect from the stone-armored fox''s defense.
However, it was mean nothing since its slight injuries were instantly recovered by [High-Speed Regeneration] skill.
The stone-armored fox angrily stomped its feet onto the mirror floor and their surrounding suddenly shook violently!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
But who knew that the Doppelganger''s perfect copy sneered as it also stomped its feet onto the mirror floor, and the shaking was stopped in an instant!
Then several dozen of earth spikes shot out from under their feet toward the three of them!
Tang Li Xue hastily used the divine ability she copied just now, [Mother Earth''s Gift]!
Under Tang Li Xue''s control, several earth spikes stopped right before they could hit her.
The stone-armored fox also did the same thing as Tang Li Xue, but it did it more skillfully and evenunched another counterattack toward the Doppelganger''s perfect copy using its own previous earth spikes!
While the ck and white striped fox activated its [Shadow Reflection] to perfectly dodge the earth spikes.
When the three of them busily fought against the Doppelganger''s perfect copy, Little Loki took this opportunity tounch a sneak attack on the real Doppelganger using its [Instant Teleportation]!
Little Loki instantly teleported right above the real Doppelganger and attacked it using [Scythe w Qi]!
But the Doppelganger had already long been wary of them all¡
As soon as it sensed Little Loki with its [Extrasensory Perception], it immediately activated its [Wings of Freedom] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to avoid Little Loki''s [Scythe w Qi]!
Little Loki hastily activated its ability to lock the Doppelganger''s movement, senses, and skills!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]!
While the Doppelganger could not move, Little Loki swiftly took this chance tond several lethal attacks on it!
[sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi]!
With [sh and sh] boosting Little Loki''s movement speed and attack speed by several times in a short time, it could attack the Doppelganger rapidly with its [Scythe w Qi]!
SHRING~! SHRING~! SHRING~! SHRING~! SHRING~!
Normally, Little Loki''s current rapid attacks were more than enough to dice the Doppelganger into minced meat this time, but it seems the Doppelganger was saved by [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s protection again.
"Nice move, Little Loki~! I wonder how many times [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s protection it still has?!" Tang Li Xue praised Little Loki while wondering in a curious tone.
In order to kill this Doppelganger, they must kill it eight times... But no one knows how many times they already killed this Doppelganger until now...
In short, it seems the winner of this treasure game would be determined by none other than luck... Since no one would know who wouldnd thest killing strike on the Doppelganger at this rate!
Tang Li Xue also activated her [Wings of Freedom] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and dashed toward the Doppelganger to join with Little Loki to attack it, but before she could reach them...
BBAAAAAAAAAAANNGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s body was suddenly struck heavily by someone!
She was thrown off dozen of meters until she crashed onto the mirror wall.
Tang Li Xue stood up again while coughing out a mouthful of blood.
She red angrily at the ck and white striped fox and cursed while gnashing her fangs in anger: "This bast*rd~! How dare it backstab me at a time like this?!"
The ck and white striped fox sensed Tang Li Xue''s angry stare, so it also stared back at Tang Li Xue and hastily refuted her: "What?! Why are you looking at me like that?! Just so you know, it was not me who attack you just now!"
The ck and white striped fox pointed its paw toward the Doppelganger''s perfect copy.
When Tang Li Xue nced at the Doppelganger''s perfect copy, it was actually already transformed into the ck and white striped fox!
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply while thinking in amazement: ''Woah~! It could even do something like that?! Using its perfect copy to change into another fox?!''
''Uhhh... Wait a minute, this is not the time to be amazed by it! Err, isn''t this bad for us? Since we will never know if we got backstabbed by our own teammates or by that Doppelganger''s perfect copy!'' Tang Li Xue suddenly realized and frowned deeply.
Meanwhile, the real Doppelganger was already recovered from Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] andunched its counterattack toward Little Loki!
[Energy Maniption], Ensnaring Wires!
The Doppelganger knew that Little Loki could easily avoid any attack using its [Instant Teleportation], so it tied Little Loki using the several wires created from [Energy Maniption]!
Just as Little Loki wanted to use its [Scythe w Qi] to cut the wires, the Doppelganger quickly activated [Essence Devouring Technique] to drain Little Loki''s energy!
Little Loki felt its energy drained by the Doppelganger, and it felt weaker and weaker until it could no longer use its [Scythe w Qi] anymore to cut the wires!
Little Loki was already extremely hungry before, and its energy was almostpletely exhausted...
But right now, Little Loki waspletely passed out in exhaustion because the Doppelganger managed to drain thest drop of energy from its tiny body.
Chapter 551: Chapter 551: An Impossible Battle to Win!
Chapter 551: An Impossible Battle to Win!
"Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a tone filled with worry as she hastily used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to sh toward Little Loki.
[Moonlight sh]!
Tang Li Xue''s ws swiftly cut all of the entangling wires that bound Little Loki.
Tang Li Xue worriedly checked Little Loki''s condition carefully.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she found Little Loki was only passed out in extreme exhaustion.
But the Doppelganger hurriedly took this chance tounch a sudden attack on both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki!
[Tiger Roaring sh]!
An imposing image of a fierce White Tiger appeared once again behind the Doppelganger!
ROOOOOOOOAAAARRR~!!!
The deafening tiger roar reverberated in Tang Li Xue''s ears as the image of the fierce white tiger shed its w toward her and Little Loki!
Tang Li Xue felt very dizzy because of the deafening tiger roar, so it was already toote for her to react or dodge it!
Just when the fierce white tiger''s w almost hit Tang Li Xue and Little Loki...
BAAAAAAAANNNGG~!!!
The Doppelganger got hit suddenly by something from behind and thrown off dozen of meters until it crashed heavily onto the mirror wall!
Tang Li Xue shook her head to clear her mind and found out that it was the ck and white striped fox who helped her just now.
"Be more careful next time~! This Doppelganger is more tricky and stronger than what we had expected." The ck and white striped fox warned Tang Li Xue and began tounch another attack toward the Doppelganger again.
"Okay, thank you for your help..." Tang Li Xue nodded at the ck and white striped fox as she created a wire from her [Energy Maniption] divine ability to restrain the Doppelganger for some time.
[Light Reflection]!
[Energy Maniption], Wire Net!
The Doppelganger tried to dodge their attack with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], but the ck and white striped fox''s mysterious [Light Reflection] was unavoidable and unblockable, so it still struck the Doppelganger heavily!
BBBAAAAAAAANGGGG~!!!
Tang Li Xue admitted that this ck-white striped fox was extremely troublesome and annoying as a foe, but it was extremely reliable as a teammate!
The Doppelganger sted onto the mirror wall again after it got struck by [Light Reflection], and Tang Li Xue took this chance to use her Wire Net to bind the Doppelganger!
"I got you~!" Tang Li Xue said while sneering in anger.
But the Doppelganger hastily used [Swap] skill to exchange location with its perfect copy!
Meanwhile, its perfect copy was still in the form of the stone-armored fox, and it was currently locked in a stalemate battle against the real stone-armored fox.
The moment when the real Doppelganger swapped location with its perfect copy, the stone-armored fox grinned as it said: "I have been waiting for you to do that since long ago~!"
nd¦Ásv¦Ål
[Mountain Crushing Pit]!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The surrounding floor quickly sunk to trap the Doppelganger inside the deep hole, then the deep hole suddenly shrunk as if it wanted to crush the Doppelganger inside it to death!
But the Doppelganger had already copied the stone-armored fox''s divine ability, [Mother Earth''s Gift], and it hastily used it to stop the stone-armored fox''s skill from crushing it!
"Tsk~! So what if you can also use my divine ability?! You still will never be able to use it better than me! Fake will always stay fake! It will never surpass the original!" The stone-armored fox angrily snorted as it urged its [Mother Earth''s Gift] again!
[Earth Stomping Hammer]!
A huge heavy pir created from the ceiling above suddenly fell heavily toward the deep hole to stomp and pound the Doppelganger inside the deep hole!
BBOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue still did not n to release the doppelganger''s perfect copy that was currently trapped in her wire.
What the Doppelganger did to Little Loki before gave Tang Li Xue some shes of inspiration to do something creative...
Just like the Doppelganger did before, Tang Li Xue also quickly activated her [Essence Devouring Technique] to drain the energy from the doppelganger''s perfect copy!
But Tang Li Xue did not n to absorb the drained energy from the doppelganger''s perfect copy by herself!
Tang Li Xue put her paw gently onto Little Loki, and the energy drained from the doppelganger''s perfect copy was flowing into Little Loki''s tiny body!
"You must be very hungry, right, Little Loki?! Then eat that bast*rd''s energy as much as you want!" Tang Li Xue muttered to the sleeping Little Loki in a delightful tone.
As if the sleeping Little Loki heard Tang Li Xue''s words, Tang Li Xue''s draining power instantly increased by many times, and all of the energy drained from the doppelganger''s perfect copy was flowing rapidly into Little Loki!
Tang Li Xue got a bit surprised, but she also quickly responded by using her [Energy Maniption] to create several thicker ropes and wires bypressing the energy used to condense them!
Tang Li Xue hastily used several thicker ropes and sturdier wires to bind the doppelganger''s perfect copy more tightly!
The doppelganger''s perfect copy tried to struggle to free itself, but after finding out that it was impossible for it to free itself if Tang Li Xue continued to add more and more ropes and wires to bind it, so it decided tounch an attack on Tang Li Xue instead!
[Earth Spikes]!
Several earth spikes stabbed out from the floor toward Tang Li Xue in that instant!
However, Tang Li Xue also has [Mother Earth''s Gift] she copied from the stone-armored fox, so she immediately used it to stop the movement of the several earth spikes before they could reach her!
"It is futile! Just give up and be a good battery for my Little Loki!" Tang Li Xue murmured while sneering at the tied-up doppelganger''s perfect copy.
When Tang Li Xue felt a bitcent, the doppelganger''s perfect copy suddenly disappear as the real doppelganger un-summoned it using [Twin Moons] divine ability.
"Tsk~! What a slippery bast*rd?!" Tang Li Xueined as her [Essence Devouring Technique] stopped working.
Then Tang Li Xue thought something while frowning deeply.
She immediately turned around to remind others: "Damn it~! Be careful everyone that Doppelganger..."
Before Tang Li Xue could finish her words...
BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
A huge pir of earth spike struck the stone-armored fox heavily until it flew upward like a cannonball!
[Double Earth Stomping Hammers]!
A huge heavy pir created from the ceiling above and another huge heavy pir created from the ground below suddenly appeared to crush the stone-armored fox between them under the control of the Doppelganger!
The stone-armored fox shouted as it urged all of its efforts by using its [Mother Earth''s Gift] to stop the two huge heavy pirs to crush it!
BBOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
Unfortunately, the stone-armored fox''s effort was futile, and it still got crushed by the two huge heavy pirs.
The stone-armored fox turned into a group of white light and disappeared.
"Impossible ~!" The ck and white striped fox shouted in shock and disbelief.
The ck and white striped fox itself already fought against the stone-armored fox before, so it knew how hard it was to kill the stone-armored fox.
But the doppelganger suddenly got much stronger and crushed the stone-armored fox by using its own divine ability!
Of course, the stone-armored fox flew upward and did not touch the ground for a few moments just now... but how could the stone-armored fox get killed by its own divine ability?!
It was still somewhat uneptable for the stone-armored fox!
Only Tang Li Xue understood what the Doppelganger did just now to greatly boost its own strength in an instant...
Yes, the Doppelganger just used the [Merge] skill from her [Twin Moons] divine ability!
([Merge]: Merge the perfect copy with the user''s body. Doubled the user''s overall stats for 1 hour! Note: The perfect copy needs to be sacrificed to activate this ability.)
Tang Li Xue also realized that when the Doppelganger transformed into the stone-armored fox just now, its overall stats and the power of its abilities also instantly got doubled!
In short, if this Doppelganger transformed into someone, it would instantly get twice more powerful than that fox.
"Sh*t... Why the hell it sounds so overpowered and scary?! Err, maybe we should initiate a tactical retreat for now?" Tang Li Xue muttered while shrugging slightly in fright.
Tang Li Xue hastily took away the sleeping Little Loki into her system''s space.
Meanwhile, the Doppelganger already jumped out from the hole and sneered at the ck and white striped fox.
Currently, the Doppelganger already transformed into the ck and white striped fox.
When the two of them were facing each other right now, even Tang Li Xue had a hard time telling them apart.
[Light Reflection]!
[Light Reflection]!
Both of them were attacking each other with the same type of divine ability at the same time!
BAAAAAAAANNGG~!!!
The Doppelganger only took a few steps back while the ck and white striped fox was sted until it crashed heavily onto the mirror wall and bounced onto the ceiling, then fell back into the ground!
It could be easily from this that the current Doppelganger was far stronger than the real one right now!
The ck and white striped fox slowly stood up again while coughing a few mouthfuls of blood.
Even some of its bones were broken by the Doppelganger''s previous attack.
"Jie jie jie jie~!" The Doppelgangerughed sinisterly at the ck and white striped fox.
Tang Li Xue instantly felt bad as she felt it was her fault that made the Doppelganger be this strong...
Well... It was not entirely wrong since her [Merge] skill was the one who created this monster.
Chapter 552: Chapter 552: The Only Way to Counterattack!
Chapter 552: The Only Way to Counterattack!
Tang Li Xue started to panic when she saw that even the most powerful fox between them, the ck and white striped fox, was beaten so badly by the Doppelganger.
Tang Li Xue hesitated between helping the ck and white striped fox to fight against the Doppelganger or running away quickly from here.
Actually, Tang Li Xue wanted to run away... err, initiate a tactical retreat and wait patiently for at least until the one-hour duration of [Merge] skill was up.
At that time, the Doppelganger would enter a temporary weak state, then Tang Li Xue would have much bigger odds of winning against the Doppelganger.
"No, no, no... That n is futile since it also has [Quick Restore] divine ability that can clear the weak state in an instant." Tang Li Xue murmured as she shook her head in disappointment.
When Tang Li Xue was hesitating and pondering her next n carefully, the Doppelganger was actually ignoring the groggy ck and white striped fox andunched a sudden attack on Tang Li Xue!
[Light Reflection]!
Tang Li Xue might be thinking deeply, but she was still vignt toward the Doppelganger.
Just as she sensed the Doppelganger suddenlyunched an attack on her with her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue knew she could not avoid or block this attack, so she immediately decided to use her defensive skill instead!
[Arcane Barrier]!
(Arcane Barrier: Create a spell shield that reduces the damage taken by half. Duration: 30 Seconds. Cooldown: 20 minutes.)
BBAAAAAAAAAANNGG~!!!
The Doppelganger''s [Light Reflection] also struck Tang Li Xue''s body heavily until she sted dozen of meters and crashed onto the mirror wall like a cannonball.
Tang Li Xue slowly got up again while waking up the Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian.
[Perfect Assimtion]!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure was shrouded by the deep blue mes in an instant!
Right now, Tang Li Xue realized that this Doppelganger would never let her escape that easily since it already nned to finish them all off in this one hour!
Moreover, both Tang Li Xue and the ck-white striped fox did not even have any ability to run away from this Doppelganger at all since it currently has [Merge] skill''s double overall stats buff plus [Wings of Freedom] buff right now.
The Doppelganger''s current speed was far too much faster than any of them!
nd¦Ásv¦Ål
Rather than thinking about running away from the Doppelganger, it was much more feasible to fight two against one with this Doppelganger until thest drop of blood!
Tang Li Xue used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to move closer toward the ck and white striped fox and whispered to it: "Are you all right? Can you still fight?"
"I... I am okay... But can we still win against that monster? I don''t know what happened, but it suddenly get so much more powerful than before!" The ck-white striped fox replied with a pessimistic tone.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
''Well, I am really sorry, okay?! That bast*rd is using my skill to boost itself! No, wait a minute... That is clearly not my fault, right?! How the hell do I know that there is another creature that can copy my divine abilities and skills?!'' Tang Li Xue secretlyined in her heart.
"Honestly, I do not think we even have any chance to survive against that monster... Sigh... It is such a pity... I thought I can survive a little longer in this current Fox Hunting Festival..." The ck-white striped fox sighed in resignation.
"Hey, hey, hey~! Can you stop being so pessimistic?! Actually, I still have one finalst n. If we seed, we might have some chance of winning against that monster. How about it? Are you on?" Tang Li Xue confidently muttered to the ck-white striped fox.
The ck-white striped fox took a nce at Tang Li Xue while frowning suspiciously.
In the ck and white striped fox''s opinion, Tang Li Xue was actually the weakest among the three of them, so it really did not quite believe that Tang Li Xue could have a way to deal with the current monstrous Doppelganger.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes when she saw the ck-white striped fox''s doubtful stare.
Just when Tang Li Xue nned to exin her n...
The Doppelganger suddenly asked them with azy tone while sitting on the floor: "Are you two already done saying your farewell yet? I am starting to get bored... If you are already done, then you two can go die now!"
The Doppelganger slowly stood up, and it immediately disappeared from their view!
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
Yes, the Doppelganger instantly transformed into Tang Li Xue this time and used her movement skill to swiftly approach the two of them!
[Moonlight sh]!
The Doppelganger wielded Tang Li Xue''s fastest skill against Tang Li Xue herself and the ck-white striped fox!
Tang Li Xue hastily condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] to defend herself, but she did not feel it was enough so she also used [Phoenix Cloak] to cover her body!
While the ck-white striped fox was also using its [Shadow Reflection] to turn into a shadow!
BAAAAAAAANNNGGG~!!!
The Doppelganger''s [Moonlight sh] was not only extremely fast but also brutally powerful!
Even Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon ws] and [Phoenix Cloak] were blown away by the Doppelganger''s [Moonlight sh]!
Thankfully, the effect of [Arcane Barrier] was still protecting her body, so she was only lightly injured by the Doppelganger''s ws.
''Damn it~! Luckily, it only used [Moonlight sh]! If it used [Moon Shattering Strike] just now, I might be already gone right now!'' Tang Li Xue groaned painfully in her heart.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger as she condensed a [Fire Bomb] from her deep blue me of Pride!
But the Doppelganger sneered at Tang Li Xue and transformed back into the ck-white striped fox''s form.
"Stop it! Don''t attack it or you will be a goner!" The ck-white striped fox hastily reminded Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she dispersed her [Fire Bomb].
But she asked with an unconvinced tone using her [Lock-On Telepathy] skill to the ck-white striped fox so the Doppelganger would not be able to overhear their conversation: "Why do you stop me from attacking it?"
"Sigh... Because you already marked by its [Light Reflection] when it attacked you using it before..." The ck-white striped fox replied to Tang Li Xue.
This time, the ck-white striped fox did not bother to hide the power of its divine abilities and told Tang Li Xue its effect without any reservation.
Apparently, its [Light Reflection] attack divine ability would leave [Light Mark] on the target.
If the target with [Light Mark]unched any attack toward the ck-white striped fox, then it activated [Shadow Reflection] to avoid the target''s attack, and it would leave [Shadow Mark] on the target.
When the target has both [Light Mark] and [Shadow Mark], the ck-white striped fox could activate the extremely powerful [Light and Shadow Reflection] to detonate the target!
If Tang Li Xue was hit by the current monstrous Doppelganger''s [Light and Shadow Reflection], she would surely get killed in that instant!
Or... Maybe not, since she still has one more [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s protection from deadly blow...
But Tang Li Xue would have already died twice by the ck-white striped fox''s [Light and Shadow Reflection] before if not for the [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s protection.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs again whileining in her heart: ''Damn you~! How could you grant it such a troublesome divine ability?! If we lost and got killed by itter, then it must be your fault!''
If the ck-white striped fox could hear Tang Li Xue''sint, it might give her its middle finger and say: ''Do you have no shame?! Whose divine ability do you think made it twice more powerful than before?!''
The Doppelganger clicked its tongue in annoyance when Tang Li Xue canceled her attack and dispersed her [Fire Bomb].
It red angrily at the ck-white striped fox andunched an attack toward the ck-white striped fox instead in rage!
[Light Reflection]!
BBBAAAAAAAAANNGG~!!!
The ck-white striped fox got struck heavily by the Doppelganger''s [Light Reflection], and its body sted heavily onto the mirror wall again.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down and secretly whispered to the ck-white striped fox again with her [Lock-On Telepathy]: ''I have an extremely powerful move that might be able to kill this bast*rd, but I need your cooperation.''
The ck-white striped fox spurted out several mouthfuls of blood and secretly replied back to Tang Li Xue: ''Cooperation? Do I really have any other choice?! Sigh... Just tell me what I need to do right now?!''
''I need time! Not much... Probably only more or less five minutes! So, you just need to catch its attention so it will always focus on you and ignore me in that five minutes! Can you do it?'' Tang Li Xue asked as she used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to distance herself away from the Doppelganger.
The ck-white striped fox hesitated for a few moments since it suspected that Tang Li Xue might want to deceive it and run away alone from the Doppelganger.
But the ck-white striped fox could only grit its teeth and chose to believe in Tang Li Xue since they really ran out of options right now.
''Five minutes, right?! It is no problem, but can you really kill it with your move?'' The ck-white striped fox asked using telepathy with a skeptical tone.
''Do we really have any other choice right now?! We can only try out best, right? At least I can still ept my defeat if my best move still failed to kill this Doppelganger...'' Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and replied.
Chapter 553: Chapter 553: The Doppelganger VS The Black-White Striped Fox!
Chapter 553: The Doppelganger VS The ck-White Striped Fox!
Honestly, Tang Li Xue was not actually so helpless yet since she still has some trump cards that she could still use to fight against this Doppelganger.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to just use her [Regalia of Eclipse], but it might not work against this Doppelganger since both skills from [Regalia of Eclipse] need to fulfill some conditions to work on her enemy.
[Eclipse of Desire] would only work if the enemy has a strong desire to achieve or possess something, while [Eclipse of Sins] would only work if the enemy did a lot of crimes in its lifetime.
But this Doppelganger was clearly a temporary monster created as the BOSS in this mirror maze dungeon, so it might not have any desire for anything, and it might also have never done any evil deed other than killing a few foxes in this mirror maze.
The second option was to use [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] to burn this Doppelganger to death.
However, this n was also unfeasible since it was impossible for Tang Li Xue to instantly burn the Doppelganger to death with [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes].
On the contrary, the Doppelganger might focus on killing Tang Li Xue first as fast as it could to stop her [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes].
Moreover, Tang Li Xue was quite sure that the Doppelganger still has one or two more [Sun and Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protections so it might not be impossible for the Doppelganger tost for several minutes under her [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes].
Don''t forget the Doppelganger could also use [Quick Restore] to rapidly heal all of its wounds...
The only good news was that the Doppelganger sacrificed its perfect copy by activating the [Merge] skill so she did not really need to kill Doppelganger eight times...
''Sigh... Since the first option and the second option are not working, then I can only pin my hope on the third option...'' Tang Li Xue sighed while murmuring in her heart.
Tang Li Xue swiftly used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to sh beside the wounded ck-white striped fox.
Then Tang Li Xue activated her [Talisman of Giant Strength], [Talisman of Lightning Speed], and [Talisman of Iron Skin] to give the buffs to herself and the ck-white striped fox.
She also used [Talisman of Regeneration] on the ck-white striped fox, so its wounds could gradually heal.
Tang Li Xue nodded at the ck-white striped fox and muttered to it: "I am counting on you!"
The ck-white striped fox nodded back at Tang Li Xue and replied: "I will try my best but please do it faster if you can since I might not be able to hold on for five minutes..."
"I will also try my best... but I cannot promise..." Tang Li Xue murmured as she activated her [Mother Earth''s Gift] to create a violent earthquake.
RUMBLE~!!! RUMBLE~!!! RUMBLE~!!! RUMBLE~!!!
The Doppelganger wanted tounch another attack on Tang Li Xue and the ck-white striped fox, but the violent earthquake made it stagger out of bnce.
BBOOOOOMMM~!!!
The deep cracks started to spread on the surrounding floor and ceiling!
Tang Li Xue used [Stealth Talisman] to turn herself invisible before she jumped into the deep cracks to hide while whispering to the ck-white-striped fox with her [Lock-on Telepathy]: "Go~! You can start now~! Remember to always catch its attention, so it would forget about me! It would be best if you can make that Doppelganger never changed into my form again in these five minutes!"
Well... since the Doppelganger would have the super annoying danger-sensing ability, [Extrasensory Perception], if it transformed into Tang Li Xue''s form, and it might perceive what Tang Li Xue currently does with [Extrasensory Perception]...
Tang Li Xue condensed a pair of deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back and hovered inside the deep cracks.
Tang Li Xue actually wanted to use [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment] too to hide better, but it would not work since her [Phoenix Wings] could not turn invisible like her.
She took a deep breath while muttering with a solemn tone: "Let''s go, Dumb Bird~! The only chance to defeat that Doppelganger lies on you and me right now~!"
Tang Li Xue put both of her paws together and began topress her deep blue me of Pride in the space between her paws!
After the deep blue mes started to go out of control, Tang Li Xue add spin power as if she wanted to create [Spiral Sphere Bomb].
Of course, what Tang Li Xue wanted to create was not a mere [Spiral Sphere Bomb], but the much more powerful [Purple Destruction Wave] that defeated even the Sapphire Queen Wasp!
Compress more!
After thepressed deep blue [Fire Bomb] almost went out of control again, Tang Li Xue forcefully made it spin faster to stabilize it!
Then after it stabilized, Tang Li Xue would add andpress more deep blue mes into it!
''Come on~! Please, make this work~! Change the color to purple, please!'' Tang Li Xue silently prayed in her heart.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, the ck-white striped fox hastilyunched an attack toward the Doppelganger before it could do anything!
[Light Reflection]!
BBBAAAAAAAANNNG~!!!
The staggering Doppelganger took a few steps back because of the ck-white striped fox''s sudden attack.
However, the ck-white striped fox''s [Light Reflection] was far from lethal.
On the contrary, it only made the Doppelganger angry!
But it was good since that was what the ck-white striped fox wants, so the Doppelganger would not notice that Tang Li Xue had currently hidden under the cracks right now!
The angry Doppelganger also used [Light Reflection] to attack the ck-white striped fox!
The ck-white striped fox could use its [Shadow Reflection] to avoid any type of attack, except for light-element attacks such as [Light Reflection]!
It was truly an irony since the weakness of the ck-white striped fox''s almost untouchable defense-type divine divine ability actuallyy in its own attack-type divine ability...
But it did not mean that the ck-white striped fox really did not have any other way to avoid the Doppelganger''s attack!
The ck-white striped fox gritted its fangs and activated its [Shadow Reflection], then it jumped toward the mirror wall!
Strangely, the ck-white striped fox''s shadow-like body actually sunk into the mirror wall and reached the other side of the mirror space!
BBBAAAAAAAAAAANNNG~!!!
The Doppelganger''s [Light Protection] struck the mirror wall and failed to hit the ck-white striped fox!
The ck-white striped fox sneered provocatively toward the Doppelganger, then she used its [Shadow Reflection] to jump back through the mirror wall and came back.
[Light Reflection]!
The ck-white striped foxunched an attack toward the Doppelganger again!
BAAAANNNNNG~!!!
The ck-white striped fox knew that its [Light Reflection] could only barely hurt the Doppelganger, but it deliberately kept using it repeatedly to provoke the Doppelganger''s anger even more.
The Doppelganger took another few steps back, and an angry vein started to bulge on the Doppelganger''s forehead as it gnashed its fangs in rage.
The Doppelganger dashed closer toward the ck-white striped fox while shooting [Light Reflection] toward it!
But the ck-white striped fox used the same trick. It activated its [Shadow Reflection] to turn into a shadow and jumped into the mirror wall to avoid the Doppelganger''s [Light Reflection]!
The Doppelganger also used [Shadow Reflection] to turn itself into a shadow and jumped through the mirror to chase after the ck-white striped fox!
"You are too slow~! You will never catch up to me with that speed, Slowpoke~!" The ck-white striped foxughed at the Doppelganger in a provocative manner.
d¦Ásv¦Ål
Of course, it was only a lie since the Doppelganger''s overall stats was doubled in [Merge] buff state, so it was certainly twice faster than the ck-white striped fox...
However, the ck-white striped fox was betting on its control over its own divine ability instead!
The ck-white striped fox was quite sure that even though the Doppelganger could imitate all of its divine abilities, it would certainly take some time for the Doppelganger to adapt to using them!
''I can only hope that it will take a longer time for this Doppelganger to adapt...'' The ck-white striped fox secretly wished in its heart.
The ck-white striped fox shot [Light Reflection] toward the Doppelganger when it used [Shadow Reflection] to jump through the mirror wall to chase after it!
BBAAAAAAAANNGG~!
The Doppelganger staggered and crashed onto the mirror wall.
The ck-white striped fox took this chance to [Shadow Reflection] and jumped to another side of the mirror wall again.
The ck-white striped fox was cleverly using the kiting tactic to keep the Doppelganger away while keep provoking it with its [Light Reflection] attack.
After repeating this tactic a few times, the Doppelganger finally lost its patience and angrily charged toward the ck-white striped fox while ignoring its [Light Reflection] attack.
When the ck-white striped fox activated its [Shadow Reflection] to jump toward the mirror wall, the Doppelganger swiftly activated its [Shadow Reflection] to catch up.
BBAAAAAAAANNGG~!
With its much superior speed, the Doppelganger finally caught the ck-white striped fox from behind, and both of them were rolling while wrestling on the ground.
"RWAAAAAAAAAGGGRRRRRR~!" The Doppelganger angrily roared as it opened its fangs to take a bite of the ck-white striped fox''s neck!
The ck-white striped fox did not panic at all.
It said with a cold tone while still maintaining its calmness: "That is the worst choice to do, rookie. I might not be able to hurt you before when you keep spamming [Light Reflection] to me, but if you are this close to me then it was a different story..."
[Light and Shadow Reflection]!
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The Doppelganger roared in pain as its body sted toward the mirror wall and crashed heavily onto it!
The ck-white striped fox could finally detonate its ultimate move toward the Doppelganger!
Chapter 554: Critical Situation!
Chapter 554: Critical Situation!
The ck-white striped fox actually wanted to detonate this [Light and Shadow Reflection] long ago when the Doppelganger attacked it with [Moonlight sh] in Tang Li Xue''s form before, and it dodged using [Shadow Reflection].
But the ck-white striped fox found out that the [Light Mark] and [Shadow Mark] on the Doppelganger would be cleared up when the Doppelganger changed to another form.
That was the reason why the ck-white striped fox kept baiting the Doppelganger and made the Doppelganger keep using [Shadow Reflection] to chase after it by passing through the mirror wall... It was to make the Doppelganger always take its current form!
Unfortunately, even the ck-white striped fox''s [Light and Shadow Reflection] could not kill the Doppelganger in one attack.
The ck-white striped fox sighed in disappointment as it saw the Doppelganger transform into Tang Li Xue''s form to heal its wounds with Tang Li Xue''s [High-Speed Regeneration].
So, the [Light Mark] and [Shadow Mark] on the Doppelganger had been cleared up once again...
The ck-white striped fox took a nce at the deep cracks on the other side of the mirror and silently thought in frustration: ''I might not be able to hold on for five minutes... Sigh, I am really counting on you, so please hurry up!''
The ck-white striped foxunched [Light Reflection] on the Doppelganger while it took some time to recover from its wounds!
BAAAAANNGG~!!!
The Doppelganger only took a few steps back, then it raised its head again to stare menacingly at the ck-white striped fox while grinding its fangs in greater rage.
The ck-white striped fox activated its [Shadow Reflection], but before it could jump to the mirror wall...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The Doppelganger activated the [Mother Earth''s Gift] to create a violent earthquake!
Deep cracks began to spread on the floor, walls, and ceiling like spider webs.
Then the surrounding mirror walls started to fall apart under the violent earthquake made by the Doppelganger!
The ck-white striped fox gnashed its fangs and quickly jumped to the mirror wall right before it copsed!
The ck-white striped fox in its shadow form managed to pass through the mirror wall right before it fell onto the floor and shattered to pieces!
After it reached the other side of the mirror wall, the ck-white striped fox''s body was out of bnce, so when it fell onto the floor, it rolled on the floor, but it quickly stopped before it fell into the deep crack.
The Doppelganger leisurely walked out from the other mirror wall in shadow form, then it transformed into Tang Li Xue''s form again and used [Mother Earth''s Gift] to break the destroy thest nearby mirror wall.
Currently, the surrounding scene was alreadypletely changed from the confusing mirror maze to the fallen maze ruins with deep cracks everywhere.
"Jie jie jie jie, I want to see where you can run right now~!" The Doppelganger said to the ck-white striped fox in a mocking tone while sneering provocatively at it.
The ck-white striped fox slowly stood up and replied back with a mocking smile: "Really? I am afraid you will not be able to catch up to me anymore with your half-baked divine ability''s utilization."
The Doppelganger''s expression turned cold as it muttered: "You are dead!"
Just when the Doppelganger nned tounch a deadly attack toward the ck-white striped fox, its [Extrasensory Perception] suddenly sensed extreme heat radiating from the nearby deep crack.
"What is that?" The Doppelganger in Tang Li Xue''s form murmured in a suspicious tone.
[Light Reflection]!
BBBAAAAAAANGG~!
The ck-white striped foxunched another attack to provoke the Doppelganger, and its attack even managed tond right on the Doppelganger''s face.
The Doppelganger took another few steps back, and it also felt greater pain from its bleeding snout.
"GRRRRAAAAAAWRRRRR~!" The Doppelganger roared in great wrath as it had lost its rational thinking and charged toward the ck-white striped fox with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
The ck-white striped fox''s expression became even more solemn as it immediately activated its [Shadow Reflection] to avoid the Doppelganger''s charge.
Who knew that the Doppelganger suddenly stopped right in front of the ck-white striped fox and swiftly used [Energy Maniption] to create a cage to imprison the ck-white striped fox?!
nd¦Ásv¦Ål
"Wha... What?!" The ck-white striped fox eximed in shock.
The Doppelganger sneered as it said: "I am already bored watching you repeating the same performance again and again! Do you think I will never find a way to crack it down?!"
When the effect of the ck-white striped fox''s [Shadow Reflection] faded away, the Doppelganger condensed several wires with [Energy Maniption] to bind the ck-white striped fox, who was already imprisoned, inside the cage!
But it had not finished yet!
The Doppelganger hastily activated Tang Li Xue''s other ability!
[Essence Devouring Technique]!
The ck-white striped fox instantly felt its energy get rapidly drained by the several wires that bound its body!
The ck-white striped fox gnashed its fangs while shouting in an unwilling tone: "This move... that silver fox used it on you before! You copycat bast*rd!"
"Gyahahahaha~! So what?! Is it really matter?! Who cares about that, you idiot?! Everything is good as long as it works since only the final result is important! Just run away again if you can! Gahahahaha, I want to see if you can still run away from me again!" The Doppelgangerughed crazily while shouting in a mocking tone like a maniac.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was currently also facing huge trouble right now.
Tang Li Xue''s expression had be extremely solemn as she felt baffled at thepressed deep blue [Fire Bomb] hovering above her paws...
"What the hell is happening here?! Why has the color not changed to dark purple like before?!" Tang Li Xueined while gnashing her fangs in frustration.
Or rather, it should be called [Spiral Sphere Bomb] right now since the form of the current [Fire Bomb] was identical to the previous [Spiral Sphere Bomb] that Tang Li Xue ever made before...
No, it was not quite identical since the current [Spiral Sphere Bomb] was much bigger than before, and Tang Li Xue could feel that it still did not reach her limit yet!
She could stillpress more deep blue me of Pride and add faster spin to the current [Spiral Sphere Bomb]!
As usual, Tang Li Xuepressed more deep blue me of Pride, but when the [Spiral Sphere Bomb] almost went out of control, she made it spin faster to stabilize it.
By repeating that process again and again, the [Spiral Sphere Bomb] had grown bigger and bigger as time passed!
After two minutes, the [Spiral Sphere Bomb] had already grown bigger than Tang Li Xue''s body, so she could only let it hover above her head!
"Damn it~! What the hell is wrong with this thing?! This ispletely different from when I identally created [Purple Destruction Wave] before! This [Spiral Sphere Bomb] should be another strange urrence!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a helpless tone.
If the [Purple Destruction Wave] was an extremepression form of me of Pride until its colorpletely changed to dark purple...
Then the current [Spiral Sphere Bomb] was apletely different matter!
The current [Spiral Sphere Bomb] somehow spun faster and faster by itself right now like a turbine reactor by using Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride as the energy core!
So, rather than changing color like the previous [Purple Destruction Wave], this one became bigger and bigger instead like a small blue sun!
The extreme heat radiated from the [Spiral Sphere Bomb] made even Tang Li Xue feel extremely hot right now, and some of her silver furs already got burned!
This was really a very strange phenomenon since the me of Pride should never be able to affect Tang Li Xue or made her feel hot since she was still in [Perfect Assimtion] form with the Phoenix of Pride right now.
Tang Li Xue became panicked as the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] almost roasted her into fox barbeque right now!
She waspletely at a loss on the choice between throwing this failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] down into the deep crack and making a new one, or she should just throw this [Spiral Sphere Bomb] onto the Doppelganger right now.
When Tang Li Xue was still hesitating about what she needed to do for a few moments, the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] had grown bigger without even Tang Li Xuepressing more me of Pride into it, and the heat radiating from it also became much more intense.
It even began to let out a sucking power, and it started to suck the surrounding dirt and stone into it.
"Sh*t~! This looks bad~!" Tang Li Xue murmured in disbelief.
The current failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] was actually starting to form its own gravity like a small sun!
Tang Li Xue wanted to curse so badly right now!
''Damn, screw it~! It is already toote to make another one! Let''s just throw it to the Doppelganger''s face right now!'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
Then she hastily pped the pair of [Phoenix Wings] on her back and swiftly soared out from the deep crack!
When Tang Li Xue flew out from the deep crack, she found out that the ck-white striped fox was currently in the worst situation right now.
After the Doppelganger drained the ck-white striped fox''sst bit of energy and made it helpless, it actually started to torture the ck-white striped fox cruelly.
It made Tang Li Xue, who wanted to throw the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb], that still hovering above her head toward the Doppelganger, halted her movement for a while.
"Damn it~! Get away from there quickly, useless fox~! I cannot hold it on anymore~!" Tang Li Xue shouted to the ck-white striped fox to warn it.
Unfortunately, the ck-white striped fox could only barely move right now, and even its consciousness was already blurry. So, how could it run away and keep its distance from the Doppelganger right now?!
On the contrary, the Doppelganger became wary as it felt extreme danger came from the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] above Tang Li Xue''s head with its [Extrasensory Perception]!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in annoyance while thinking: ''Sh*t~! What the hell with this familiar situation?! Don''t tell me that I need to find Mr. Sat*n first and ask him to take away that useless fox from that Doppelganger?!''
Chapter 555: Supernova Explosion!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not know that the ck and white striped fox had beaten Little Loki before.
If she knew it, she would certainly throw this deep blue sun to the ck-white striped fox and the Doppelganger without any hesitation right now.
The Doppelganger''s expression grimaced in panic and fear when it saw the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] above Tang Li Xue''s head get bigger and hotter as every second passed.
"RAAAAAAWWWWWRRR~! DIEEEEEEEE~!" The Doppelganger roared in anger and panic as it changed its form to the ck and white striped fox.
Most of Tang Li Xue''s skills and abilities were working best at the close-range to mid-range while the Doppelganger did not dare to get too close to that extremely dangerous small sun.
So, the Doppelganger nned to justunch a long-range attack on Tang Li Xue using the ck and white striped fox''s [Light Reflection] divine ability.
Tang Li Xue could immediately read the Doppelganger''s n when it transformed into the ck and white striped fox''s form, so she hastily used her skill to confuse the Doppelganger and stall for more time!
[Water Mirage]!
In that instant, Tang Li Xue''s silver furry fox figure split into many clones!
The Doppelganger immediately felt bewildered since the ck and white striped fox''s [Light Reflection] could only attack one target.
It decided to attack the first Tang Li Xue that it already targeted before!
[Light Reflection]!
PUUUUFF~!
But Tang Li Xue''s figure shattered to pieces under the Doppelganger''s [Light Reflection] and changed into a puddle of water.
The Doppelganger gnashed its fangs in annoyance as she changed its form again to Tang Li Xue and urged its [Mother Earth''s Gift] divine ability!
More than a dozen [Earth Spikes] sprouted from the cracked floor at that moment and targeted many Tang Li Xues simultaneously!
PUUUUFF~! PUUUUFF~! PUUUUFF~! PUUUUFF~! PUUUUFF~!
Many of Tang Li Xue''s clones shattered into a puddle of water one by one under the barrage attack of the Doppelganger''s [Earth Spikes]!
"Damn it~! I am sorry, useless fox, but I really cannot hold on anymore~!" Tang Li Xue whispered to the ck and white striped fox with her [Lock-on Telepathy].
Especially since the Doppelganger already knew Tang Li Xue''s hesitation, it hastily used the ck-white striped fox as its shield right now and always kept close to the ck-white striped fox.
"Heh~! Stop being so wishy-washy! It is not like I am going to die for real! Just do it and finish this bast*rd now!" The ck-white striped fox replied to Tang Li Xue with an encouraging tone.
But this was only the ck-white striped fox''s misunderstanding.
It was not that Tang Li Xue hesitated to kill the ck-white striped fox and the Doppelganger together, but because she was still in a cooperative rtionship with the ck-white striped fox.
Killing both of them at the same time while she was still in a cooperative rtionship with the ck-white striped fox... This did not sound good at all, and it would make her like a backstabbing traitorous scum... This was what made Tang Li Xue hesitate until now.
It would be a different matter if the ck-white striped fox did not have any deal or cooperation with Tang Li Xue, and its status was still herpetitor... At that time, she could certainly kill both the ck-white striped fox and the Doppelganger without any hesitation.
Tang Li Xue gritted its fangs as her topaz blue eyes shone with resolute will.
Just when Tang Li Xue urged the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] to fly toward the Doppelganger and the ck-white striped fox...
"This feeling... Yaya is already wake up?!" Tang Li Xue eximed as Yaya suddenly jumped out of the system''s space.
"Ya~! Yaya~!" Yaya excitedly greeted Tang Li Xue and hugged her neck.
"Yaya~! Can you quickly help that fox to get away from that Doppelganger?! No, forget it... It''s already toote!" Tang Li Xue said to Yaya.
Yes... Unfortunately, it was already far toote since the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] already flew toward both the ck-white striped fox and the Doppelganger!
Even Tang Li Xue in her [Perfect Assimtion] mode with Phoenix of Pride could no longer control or stop the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] anymore right now!
However, Yaya still nodded at Tang Li Xue as she waved her tiny hand toward the ck-white striped fox.
[Shockwave Impact] plus [Pressure Air Bullet]!
The ck-white striped fox, who was almostpletely exhausted and could no longer move, suddenly flew under Yaya''s wind power and blown away farther!
By using [Shockwave Impact] to erase the [Pressure Air Bullet]''s attack power and impact, Yaya''s [Pressure Air Bullet] pushed away the ck-white striped fox instead right now!
Tang Li Xue was very surprised at Yaya''s delicate control over her own wind power, but it was clearly not the time for that right now!
Tang Li Xue pped her [Phoenix Wings] rapidly to get away from there as quickly as possible!
At first, she only felt extremely hot and unbearable from the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] when it was hovering above her head...
Who knew that after she threw away that damned failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] toward the Doppelganger, her [Extrasensory Perception] was suddenly screaming of extreme lethal danger to her!
''Damn it~! Why the hell are you only giving a warning like this right now?! If I know it earlier, I can throw it from much farther away!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart.
Tang Li Xue still felt her speed was far from enough so she used [Sun Dragon sh] repeatedly to get away from there quicker!
Yaya was still sitting on Tang Li Xue''s back and holding her furs tightly so she would not fall. She also gave Tang Li Xue her [Wind Guardian Blessing] to increase her speed even more!
(Wind Guardian Blessing: Increase overall speed by 50%, and grant the user an auto-dodge effect. Duration: 10 seconds. Note: auto-dodge will not work if the opponent''s attack speed is faster than the user''s speed, or if the AoE attack radius is toorge.)
Meanwhile, the Doppelganger also transformed into Tang Li Xue''s form and hastily used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to get away from the deep blue sun that flying toward it!
However, the Doppelganger''s speed clearly could not match the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb]!
Even though the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] was only like a small deep blue sun, but its current size was many times bigger than Tang Li Xue''s size!
So, it was not that easy to run away from the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb]''s range.
Before the Doppelganger could run far, the miniature deep blue sun already crashed onto the floor behind it!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The extremely hard mirror floor that could only be destroyed by [Mother Earth''s Gift]''s earth-control type divine ability was actually melted like butter before the miniature deep blue sun could touch it!
It could be seen from this, how terrifying the heat radiated by the miniature deep blue sun was!
Even Tang Li Xue that should be immune to its own deep blue me of Pride was almost fried alive by this failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb] that she created herself!
As the miniature deep blue sun sunk deeper and deeper into the floor like an extremely hot metal ball ced on the butter... Until it finally touched the barrier below the floor which should be the limit of this treasure game''s space...
BBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM~~~!!!
The miniature deep blue sun finally violently exploded as it crashed onto the space barrier under the floor!
"Oh, My, God~!" Tang Li Xue eximed as the entire fur on her body got terrible goosebumps as her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed an even more devastating dangering fast from behind her.
"Yaya~! Come here, quickly!" Tang Li Xue urged Yaya.
Right at this moment, Tang Li Xue did not even hesitate to enter [War Goddess Mode] to increase her speed even more!
*Ding!
[The user has entered perfect synchronization with Yaya and Phoenix of Pride!]
[Entering War Goddess Mode!]
Tang Li Xue did not even dare to turn her head around to check the scene behind her as she increased her speed to the maximum in an instant!
Meanwhile, as the miniature deep blue sun violently exploded, it triggered a small supernova phenomenon like a star explosion!
The surrounding space was trembling severely as the thin cracks started to spread!
Even the surrounding gravitation became extremely unstable and began to suck everything nearby!
Deep blue me waves were radiating in the form of a dome!
Forget about the Doppelganger, even the ck and white striped fox, who had already been blown away by Yaya before, only had a very small chance to survive under this extremely destructive star explosion phenomenon.
Tang Li Xue already ran quite far away, but she actually still got affected by the reverse gravitation of the miniature deep blue sun''s explosion, and her speed had slowed down a lot!
"Sh*t! It can still suck me even after I ran away this far?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock and disbelief.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs as she used [Sun Dragon sh] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
Under the effect of her [Super Speed] and Yaya''s [Extreme Speed], her current speed should be extremely fast, but it became very slow instead because she was currently affected by the reverse gravitation effect that sucked her toward the explosion!
Moreover, the star explosion''s destructive waves were actually spreading extremely fast around, and it almost caught up to Tang Li Xue!
Once it touched Tang Li Xue''s body, she would certainly be burned to nothingness!
Even if she still has me of Pride''s immunity, it would no longer work since this star explosion''s destructive waves were no longer in the scope of her me of Pride.
Chapter 556: Tang Li Xues Formula!
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs as she used her best effort to get away further from the supernova explosion''s radius, but the reverse gravitation effect that sucked her was growing stronger and stronger!
"Guwooooooahhh~! Come on~!" Tang Li Xue shouted out loud as her [Extrasensory Perception] gave her an even more intense extreme danger warning.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s best effort was futile since the supernova destruction waves already caught up to her from behind!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The space at the center of the supernova explosion already began to crumble, and it spread around extremely quickly!
But before the crumbling space could reach Tang Li Xue, her three tails had already started to disintegrate to nothingness when the supernova destruction waves touched them!
"Damn it~! I am so close~! I am not willing..." Tang Li Xue shouted in anger and extreme pain of losing all her tails.
Right at that time, Tang Li Xue''s furry figure suddenly disappeared from the treasure game space before her entire body couldpletely be disintegrated into nothingness!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (0/3)]
.....
...
.
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes again, she found out that she was no longer in the crumbling treasure game space anymore.
"This is... Cough, cough, cough... So, I... I managed toe back here alive?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in disbelief while coughing several mouthfuls of blood from her mouth.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief andughed as she was freed from the extreme tension of life-threatening danger.
Then Tang Li Xue hissed and winced in pain from her back.
When she nced at her tailless butt, she instantly cried out loud in misery: "MY TAILS~?! WHERE ARE ALL OF MY BEAUTIFUL TAILS?!"
She sobbed in grief for a few moments but quickly realized that this was not the right time for her to do this since the [War Goddess Mode]''s violent bacsh would strike her soon.
She hastily took the treasure box in front of her and quickly flew away from there while activating her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn invisible and undetectable.
After flying swiftly until she got further away from the valley under the mountain, Tang Li Xue activated her [Spider Scorpion Transformation] and dug the deep underground tunnel as her temporary hideout.
After making sure that her surrounding waspletely safe with her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue did not immediately cancel her [War Goddess Mode], but she took out the unconscious Little Loki from her system''s space.
Tang Li Xue felt relieved when she saw all of the wounds on Little Loki''s tiny body had alreadypletely recovered.
Then she opened the treasure box to look at what kind of treasure she got from winning the third treasure game.
There was actually a round transparent crystal-like fruit stored inside the treasure box.
Just sniffing the fragrant sweet smell emitted by the round crystal fruit was more than enough to make Tang Li Xue''s droll dripping continuously like a leaking faucet.
"Holy moly... what kind of fruit is this?! I can tell that it must be extremely delicious just from its sweet fragrance!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she kept staring greedily at the round crystal fruit.
Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head to clear her mind and said with a resolute tone: "No, no, no... This fruit is for Little Loki! Little Loki must be already very hungry right now, and only this fruit can relieve its hunger!"
"But maybe... Gulp~! Maybe I can taste it first to look if this fruit is poisonous or not before giving it to Little Loki... Just one bite... it should be okay, right?!" Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva and muttered as her resolute will began to falter again.
After hesitating for a while, Tang Li Xue finally gritted her fangs and quickly stuffed the round crystal fruit into Little Loki''s mouth before she waspletely tempted to take a bite from it!
Fortunately, Little Loki was a pure-blooded Taotie, if it was a normal ck little kitten, it should be already choked to dead by the round crystal fruit right now.
Tang Li Xue sighed again in resignation as she canceled her [War Goddess Mode].
Tang Li Xue, Phoenix of Pride, and Yaya instantly fell asleep in extreme exhaustion.
At the same time, the violent bacsh from the [War Goddess Mode] also started to strike the three of them.
As usual, the Phoenix of Pride was the most unaffected by it since it has [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] to nourish itself, so it could recover the fastest among them.
Yaya also felt pain from the violent bacsh, but it was much lighterpared to Tang Li Xue.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue did not only suffer unimaginable tearing pain all over her body but even her breath was getting weaker and weaker.
Luckily, she still has an unused trump card to save herself right at this moment...
*Ding!
[System detected Host''s current condition is critical!]
[Automatically activated (Quick Restore) divine ability to recover Host''s condition back to normal!]
Tang Li Xue''s breath quickly became stronger and stronger again.
It only took a few seconds for her breath to return to normal.
Even her three disintegrated tails had begun to grow again at an extremely fast speed.
After dozen seconds, Tang Li Xue''s condition had already returned to normal, all of her wounds werepletely recovered, and her three disintegrated tails had alsopletely restored back to usual.
It could be said her [Quick Restore] was a truly overpowered divine recovery ability, except that it could not recover her energy and fatigue.
Fortunately for Tang Li Xue and her team, there was no fox who found them like the previous brown mole fox this time.
If not, their situation might be worst since the three of them were sleeping so deeply right now.
After sleeping for a few hours, Tang Li Xue slowly woke up from her deep sleep.
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body shuddered as she began to feel the tearing pain spreading on her entire body.
Even though she was already recovered because of her [Quick Restore], but the pain would still linger on her body for a while.
"Hiss~! Ouch~! Ouch~! Ouch~! So painful~! Sigh... I really hate this [War Goddess Mode]''s bacsh so much~!" Tang Li Xueined while hissing and wincing in pain.
The deted Tang Li Xue did not even bother to move her painful body, but her mind started to carefully review the previous mistakes she made in the third game.
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue managed to find out several of their shorings in the previous third game.
The first shoring was about her [Ethereal Form]...
Previously, Tang Li Xue thought that she could avoid any physical attack and earth attack when she was still in [Ethereal Form], but it was actually a big mistake!
She was overestimating the [Ethereal Form] while underestimating the power of other people... or the other foxes too much...
The normal physical attack and normal earth attack might not work against [Ethereal Form], but it would be a different story if they were imbued by the elemental power!
A clear example was the stone-armored fox''s [Mother Earth''s Gift]. She could not use her [Ethereal Form] to avoid any attacks from [Mother Earth''s Gift] before.
Even for the physical attack, as long as they were imbued by the elemental power, they could still hit her in [Ethereal Form].
The second shoring was about Little Loki...
Honestly, Tang Li Xue always thought Little Loki was extremely powerful and could even fight toe-to-toe against the spirit beast in Inheritance Ground Tablet before.
But she failed to realize that Little Loki''s power was actually 90% lies in its [Heaven''s Devour]!
Little Loki''s usualbo was using its [Instant Teleportation] to instantly approach the enemies, perform [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] to lock their movement, thenstly use [Heaven''s Devour] to swallow all of its enemies.
Even if the enemies attacked Little Loki, it could swallow all of their attack with [Heaven''s Devour].
Moreover, Little Loki also depends on its [Heaven''s Devour] to quickly recover its energy and stamina!
From this, it could be seen that Little Loki''s defense, offense, and recovery ability were mostly dependent on its [Heaven''s Devour].
However, Tang Li Xue naively asked Little Loki to fight for her, but prohibit it from using [Heaven''s Devour] before!
This was clearly a huge mistake since Little Loki''s strength would be discounted by 90% without its [Heaven''s Devour]!
Tang Li Xue sighed as she felt guilty for Little Loki.
Since she asked Little Loki to not use [Heaven''s Devour] here, then she should not send Little Loki to fight at all.
''I should apologize to Little Lokiter. Asking Little Loki to fight without [Heaven''s Devour] might be the worse choice than asking a boxer to fight without using his hands. I should never ask Little Loki to fight again from now on. At least, not in this Foxes Hunting Festival...'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
Thest shoring was her newly created skill...
"What an extremely powerful skill~! To think I am the one who created it... Uwehehehehe~! Well... Even though, it was only idental..." Tang Li Xue grinned proudly.
"Umm... It is inappropriate to call it the failed [Spiral Sphere Bomb]... I should rename it to something even more powerful!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she thought deeply.
"Spirit Bomb? No, no, no... It sounds too familiar like I giarize it from that anime..."
"Miniature Sun Bomb? Nope, it is too cliche!"
"Deep Blue Bomb? Meh~! No way! My me of Pride color is always deep blue!"
After thinking hard for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue finally decided on the name of her new skill: "All right, let''s just call it, [Supernova Explosion Bomb]!"
Tang Li Xue tried to recall back how could she created the [Supernova Explosion Bomb] previously...
Afterparing it carefully with the moment when she used the [Purple Destruction Wave] in Inheritance Ground Tablet before, Tang Li Xue finally managed to deduce the rough form of [Supernova Explosion Bomb] and [Purple Destruction Wave].
In short, it should be like this...
Spin/rotation > Compression = [Supernova Explosion Bomb]
Spin/rotation < Compression = [Purple Destruction Wave]
Of course, these were only the rough form, and she needed to find the best ratio carefullyter.
It might need many experiments... and Tang Li Xue needs to go through a lot of trial and error just so she could use [Supernova Explosion Bomb] and [Purple Destruction Wave] proficiently.
But she clearly could not do it in this Foxes Hunting Festival, so she could only postpone it forter.
"Sigh... But both [Supernova Explosion Bomb] and [Purple Destruction Wave] are too dangerous to use. I do not think that I can train in using them safely anywhereter." Tang Li Xue said in frustration.
"One tiny mistake and I would certainly evaporate to nothingness in an instant. Just like in the previous third treasure game, if I did not get teleported out because I already win the game, my entire body might be already evaporated to nothingness by now." Tang Li Xue murmured as her furry figure shuddered in horror.
Chapter 557 The Real Horror Has Just Begun!
557 Chapter 557: The Real Horror Has Just Begun!
"But it does not make sense~! How could that Doppelganger survive for so long under the Supernova explosion?!" Tang Li Xue uttered in a perplexed tone.
Tang Li Xue did not know it, but the Doppelganger was actually using [Shadow Reflection], which could avoid any type of attack except for the light-elemental attack, to temporarily avoid the Supernova explosion before.
Of course, the Doppelganger still could not maintain shadow form with [Shadow Reflection] for too long, maybe only for a dozen seconds at best, so it was stillpletely obliterated by the Supernova explosion in the end.
Tang Li Xue shook her head to clear her mind.
Anyway, she was the one who won the third treasure game in the end, so the fact that Doppelganger couldst for so long under the Supernova explosion was not so important anymore.
When she felt the tearing pain all over her body had been relieved, Tang Li Xue took the sleeping Yaya and Little Loki into her system''s space, then she used [Spider Scorpion Transformation] to dig the tunnel back to the surface.
.....
.
Meanwhile, at Instructor Mei Lan''s residence, her first student who got eliminated from the Foxes Hunting Festival got sent back by the jade badge just now.
Instructor Mei Lan red at the white-haired girl with eyes filled with menace.
Yes, the first one to get eliminated from the Foxes Hunting Festival was actually Bing Yi...
Right now, Bing Yi did not even dare to look at Instructor Mei Lan in embarrassment.
"Do you know only a few days have passed, not even a week yet? Tell me, how could you get eliminated so fast?" Instructor Mei Lan interrogated Bing Yi with a cold tone.
"I... I am so sorry, Instructor Lan... I identally met with an extremely powerful fox, and it killed me in a few moves. Even my [Ice Armored Titan] was broken by it very easily." Bing Yi replied shyly in a barely audible voice.
Instructor Mei Lan sighed in disappointment.
"There are many types of divine abilities. Offense, defense, support, healing, transformation, and so on. Do you know which type is the strongest among them?" Instructor Mei Lan asked Bing Yi.
"Um? Err, maybe... transformation-type divine ability?" Bing Yi blindly guessed.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her headzily and muttered: "The strongest type of divine ability should be domain-type divine ability. Of course, battle strategy, overall strength, and many other aspects would affect the oue of the battle, but the domain-type divine ability is already acknowledged as the strongest type of divine ability by most beast races."
"Your [Freezing Field] divine ability is the domain-type divine ability, do you know that? So how could you be the one who got eliminated first?! Don''t you feel ashamed?!" Instructor Mei Lan reprimanded Bing Yi mercilessly.
Bing Yi''s face blushed in shame, but she did not make any excuse and only fell silent in embarrassment.
"From now on, your training time and intensity will be tripled..." Instructor Mei Lan told Bing Yi about her punishment.
Bing Yi instantly kneeled in despair when she heard about her punishment.
"Tri... Tripled?! I will really die for real this time..." Bing Yi muttered in despair.
Instructor Mei Lan ignored Bing Yi''s despondent look and took a nce at the other two jade badges on the table.
These two jade badges belong to Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao.
Honestly, Instructor Mei Lan already predicted that Bing Yi would be the first one to get eliminated from the Foxes Hunting Festival even before it started.
Why?
Because Bing Yi stillcked in many thingspared to both Tang Li Xue and Hei Yinghao...
She did not have as rich experience as Hei Yinghao, and she also did not have as many life-saving skills as Tang Li Xue...
Furthermore, Bing Yi also got a sudden huge boost in her strength just recently after it broke out from her ice cocoon in the secret training, but she stillpletelycked training in controlling her power.
Meanwhile, Hei Yinghao had already received hellish training from Instructor Mei Lan, so he could already control his power to almost perfection level right now.
Especially, Hei Yinghao also had already traveled to a lot of ces and faced a lot of different enemies before, so he already went through countless trials and had a lot of survival experiences.
In short, Instructor Mei Lan was not really worried since she was sure that Hei Yinghao could certainly survive quite long in this Foxes Hunting Festival... Well, as long as he did not meet with Tang Li Xue and activated his special debuff, IQ minus 300...
Instructor Mei Lan sighed again as she muttered with a solemn expression: "Those apex predator-level foxes are always cking away at the start. They usually give the early treasures to others for the first few days before they are taking action."
"Silly Fox, Little Xue... I hope they can patiently wait and hide themselves properly in the first phase... If they identally bump into one of those monstrous apex predators, then they would be finished in an instant." Instructor Mei Lan uttered while squinting her eyes as she recalled the true horror of those apex predators.
Although, Instructor Mei Lan let the three of them participate in this Foxes Hunting Festival to gain more experience, but she also hoped that they could at least survive longer and snatch a few more treasures in the festival.
.....
...
.
After getting out of the underground tunnel, Tang Li Xue saw that the skies already turned dark.
She did not n to immediately participate in the fourth treasure game yet until Little Loki and Yaya woke up from their deep sleep.
So, Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], then headed toward the nearest huge tree.
She took the bark from the huge tree to make some more talismans again since she almost used up all of her tree bark talismans in the previous third treasure game.
Tang Li Xue jumped into the nearby tree hole and decided to make talismans there.
She canceled her [Ethereal Form], but still maintained her [Art of Concealment].
Activating her transfiguration to turn into her human form, Tang Li Xue took out her golden inscription pen from her system storage and used her own blood to make the talisman.
BOOOFFF~!!!
As usual... her first attempt was aplete failure.
Tang Li Xue sighed whileining to herself: "Sigh... Why the hell has my inscription skill be so pathetic like this? Where did Tang Li Xue that could engrave so many runes on Mogui''s body go?"
Tang Li Xue also did not understand until now why she could be so good in the previous battle against Mogui...
Maybe because of extreme anger or so much adrenaline pumped into her brain at that time... she was also not quite sure.
Even the current Tang Li Xue felt incredible to her previous self that could engrave so many runes on Mogui''s body without fail at that time.
Just so you know, engraving runes on the moving target was many times more difficult than engraving runes on the mere tree bark...
Well... But she was in [Perfect Possession] mode with Yaya at that time, so Yaya''s divine abilities such as [Extreme Speed] and [Wind God''s Eyes] definitely also contributed a lot to her before.
Tang Li Xue shook her head to clear her mind from all distractions and continued to make the talisman again.
Thankfully, her sess had increased a lot this time.
Previously, Tang Li Xue only had one sess in ten tries, but right now, she had one sess in five or six tries.
When Tang Li Xue focused on making the talisman, the [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline in her body was suddenly heating up while her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline was cooling her mind.
Tang Li Xue immediately stopped the inscription pen in her grasp and frowned deeply while muttering: "This is... Strange... Is there something wrong?"
Even her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed some strange power in her surrounding, but it only gave her a very faint premonition of danger.
Tang Li Xue hastily canceled her transfiguration and turned back into her fox form.
When she peeked out from the tree hole, she saw the night sky outside actually turned crimson red like a sea of blood.
As Tang Li Xue stared at the crimson red skies, there was a strange crimson light in the deepest part of her topaz blue eyes.
Tang Li Xue faintly heard a sound calling for her from the south...
Then she subconsciously jumped down from the tree hole and walked toward the direction where the sound came from...
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
For the first time, the [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline and the [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline in Tang Li Xue''s body were working to break the strange hypnosis effect in Tang Li Xue''s mind!
Tang Li Xue felt her mind was exploded, and she felt extremely dizzy right now.
Thankfully, she managed to get out from the hypnosis effect of the crimson-red skies with the help of both of her powerful bloodlines.
"Damn it~! What the hell is happening to me just now?!" Tang Li Xue scolded while holding her painful head with her paws.
Tang Li Xue no longer dared to stare at the blood-colored skies, so she decided to stare downward to the ground from on.
But her hunch said that something big had just begun!
The true Foxes Hunting Festival had just started right at this moment as the apex predator-level foxes finally made their moves!
Not only Tang Li Xue, but even the other foxes on the treasure ind could also faintly sense the raising tension in the surrounding atmosphere.
When the true kings entered the stage, even the heroes must kneel and bow down before their majesty.
The true kings finally join the game~! We can only hope that Tang Li Xue will not bump into any of them!
Thank you very much for your gifts, golden tickets, and Powerstone votes. (>w<)

Chapter 558: Mass Domination!
.....
"Hum~ Huum~ Hum~ Huuum~"
Somewhere on the top of the tallest mountain in treasure ind, a beautiful girl with long ck hair and wearing a thin white dress was sitting on the cliff while moving her dainty bare legs back and forth.
She was humming happily with her eyes closed.
However, she suddenly stopped her humming and slowly opened her eerie transparent purple eyes.
Terrifying purple lighting shed in the deepest part of her purple eyes from time to time.
"That bloody vixen had already started?! Sigh~! Why is she always so impatient? Only four to five days had passed, right? Whatever... I will wait for a few more days..." The beautiful girl murmured softly with azy tone.
Then she closed her eyes again and continued her humming again whilezily sitting on the snowy cliff like before.
"Huum~ Hum~ Huuum~"
.....
A small 12 years old girl with long blue hair was ying hide and seek with several other little girls in the middle of the heavenly-like beautiful garden.
When she sensed something from the south, the little girl stared at the south while murmuring in an excited tone: "Oh? So, someone had already started?! Hehehe, I hope I can meet some new friends this time."
The little girl pouted while puckering her lips and saying: "The previous festival is too boring~! The other foxes are too weak. They are even weaker than my maids, so how could they be worthy to be my friends!"
"Hmm~! Maybe I should wait for a little longer, so they can get some treasures to make them grow stronger? Anyway, there is no harm if I only watch them from afar, right? Hehehe..." The little girl giggled mischievously.
As the little girl took a step to the south, the surrounding heavenly-like beautiful garden and several other little girls were crumbled away like an illusion.
The little girl was actually in the middle of the desert area.
.....
Yes, most of the apex predator-level foxes were actually in their human form.
Since each of them was too powerful, it would not give them any experience or training effect, if they participated in this Foxes Hunting Festival in their fox form.
This ce might also no longer be called treasure ind, but the massacre or execution ground.
The other apex predator-level foxes also sensed it, but most of them decided to wait a bit longer, while the rest decided to make their moves right now since they were already running out of patience.
Actually, the treasures that appeared in these early few days were the least valuable, and they might have little to almost no effect on the apex predator-level foxes because they might already consume them before.
Just like the Sapphire Armored Wasp''s royal jelly, most of these treasures were only working the best when they were consumed for the first time.
When they were consumed for the second time, third time, and so on, the effect would diminish significantly, then they would no longer give any new divine ability or increase any stats.
Of course, some of the apex predator-level foxes that made the earlier moves did not really care about those least valuable treasures, since they only wanted to have fun to relieve their boredom in this early stage.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue felt very restless and upset right now.
She did not know clearly what was currently happening, but her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline were rapidly consuming her energy to resist something terrible.
Tang Li Xue guessed that it might involve the current crimson red skies and the hypnotic calling sound she heard before.
"Since the sound told me to head south, it means I should run north to avoid it~!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a solemn tone.
She hastily activated her [Wings of Freedom] effect to increase her speed and used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dash toward north!
But after she ran for fifty meters or so, she met with several foxes on her way, and to make it worst was that she even forgot to activate her [Ethereal Form].
"Damn it~! Should I really fight against them at a time like this?!" Tang Li Xue cussed in anger.
Strangely, these several foxes kept walking toward the south as if they did not even see Tang Li Xue at all.
Tang Li Xue red at them warily, and she quickly realized that there was a ghastly crimson glow shining in their eyes.
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure instantly shuddered in horror.
She immediately dashed with her fastest speed toward the north again!
"What the hell with that horrifying ability?! Mind control type divine ability? Or domain-type divine ability? No... It maybe be even both?! Such a terrible overpowered divine ability should be a foul, right?!" Tang Li Xueined in displeasure, but she still did not slow down her running speed.
On her way, Tang Li Xue met with many other foxes that got hypnotized by the crimson-red skies...
10... 20... 40... 70... 90...
The more she headed to the north, the more horrified Tang Li Xue had be...
"It can actually control these many foxes at once?! Just how powerful is the fox who using this crimson sky''s divine ability?! What exactly is that fox nning to do by controlling so many foxes to head south?!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a trembling voice.
While kept running at her full speed with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], Tang Li Xue''s mind kept thinking hard about how to get out of this dire situation as soon as possible.
Because currently, her energy was consumed too quickly by her both bloodlines to resist the crimson sky''s hypnotic effect.
At this rate, she would surely bepletely exhausted before she could get out from the range radius of this crimson sky''s hypnotic effect!
Her [Sun And Moon Aegis] might be able to dispel any debuff every 5 seconds, but it would not work if she was still inside this domain of crimson skies since it would continuously apply the hypnotic effect in its radius.
Tang Li Xue suddenly halted her step and muttered in a helpless tone: "This will not work... Different from the previous acid rain, this domain of crimson skies is too vast. No matter where I run, I will bepletely exhausted first before I can get out of this domain."
"But it does not mean that I have no hope at all..." Tang Li Xue resolutely said as she nced at the closest golden light pir.
Yes, this pir of golden light might be herst hope to survive this disastrous crimson sky domain!
Tang Li Xue headed as quickly as possible to the pir of golden light without any hesitation!
This pir of golden light was the only one closest to her. So, if it disappeared before she could reach it, then Tang Li Xue''s fate might be really over since the other pirs of golden light were too far away from her.
Tang Li Xue suddenly sensed that Little Yaya had already woken up just now.
But when Little Yaya wanted to jump out from the system''s space, Tang Li Xue immediately reminded her: "Wait, Yaya~! The situation outside is currently very bad, so you must stay inside patiently for now, okay?"
Yaya expressed that she was very worried about Tang Li Xue and told that she was ready to enter [Divine Possession] to help Tang Li Xue at any time.
"Thank you, Yaya~! You are really a very nice girl~! But there is no need to do that for now, since I can still handle it. Moreover, we might face greater challenges and dangers in the fourth treasure gameter..." Tang Li Xue exined to Yaya to calm her down.
It took her more than five minutes to reach the pir of the light that was located beside the river.
Even though Tang Li Xue did not need to face any enemies on her way to the pir of the light this time, but it was actually very exhausting as if she had just fought fiercely against a predator-level fox before.
Just when the pir of golden light had dimmed and almost disappear, Tang Li Xue hastily jumped into it!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath in relief as she disappeared and instantly teleported into a separate treasure game space.
.....
A sexy-looking girl wearing a skimpy crimson dresszily opened her blood-red eyes and stared at the ce where the pir of golden light had just disappeared.
"Oh? There is a little fox cub that can run away from my [Skies of Domination]? Hehehehe... Interesting~! Really, really interesting~!" The sexy-looking girl giggled as she yed with her long dark red long hair.
She slowly stood up on the cliff, and below the cliff, there were hundreds of foxes that had already fallen under her control currently waiting for her.
"Oh, my cute little ves have already gathered~! Can all of you bark to show your loyalty to me?" The sexy-looking girl said with a teasing tone.
"Woff~! Woff~! Woff~!"
"Awuuuuu~! Wuff~! Wuff~!"
Hundreds of foxes under the cliff barked sonorously in unison like a bunch of trained dogs.
The sexy-looking girlughed happily and uttered with a delighted tone: "Good dogs~! Good ves~! Do any of you still have some treasures? You can offer them to me now, and I will reward you with a head pat, how about it?"
Many foxes began to scramble to offer the treasures they got from winning the treasure game to the sexy-looking girl.
The sexy-looking girl smiled in satisfaction as she saw a small hill of treasure boxes in front of her, and she began to pat the head of those foxes who offered their treasures to her.
"Okay, all of you can go now and win more treasures for me~! I promise I will give all of you even more generous rewards~!" The sexy-looking girl ordered with a teasing tone.
"Oh, right... I almost forgot! Find the fox who can get away from my domination just now and bring it to me!" The sexy-looking girl added before she sat and leaned to the nearby tree, then fell asleep again.
Chapter 559: Tang Li Xues Worst Start!
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes again, and she immediately found herself trapped inside the closed round-shaped room.
Several other foxes had already been waiting for the treasure game to start in this closed round-shaped room before Tang Li Xue joined in.
Before Tang Li Xue could carefully observe and evaluate the other foxes to sense how strong they werepared to herself, the game had actually started!
[2], [1], [0]...
Tang Li Xue shook her head in resignation.
This might be the worst start she had ever hadpared to the other treasure games she had already participated in before...
First, she currently only has less than a third of her energy and stamina left right now, because both of her bloodlines had consumed so much of her energy and stamina to resist the mind-controlling effect of the crimson skies domain.
Second, three of her core life-saving divine abilities: [Sun and Moon Aegis]''s deadly blows protection, [Quick Restore], and [Twin Moons], all three of them were actually still in cooldown period!
Third, she did not have enough time to make more talismans before the crimson skies domain almost controlled her mind and body.
''Sigh... Hopefully, this game is much easier than the previous three games, or at least, may the other foxes in this treasure game are not predator-level foxes.'' Tang Li Xue could only silently pray in her heart.
[All of you must stop moving and does nothing when the fox head statue stared in your direction.]
[All of you can move and do anything when the fox head statue turned around, but you must never stare at the tails behind the fox head statue!]
[The first fox to touch the fox head statue will be the winner and get the previous treasure.]
[Be careful, fox cubs~! Have fun and good luck!]
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
One side wall of the round-shaped room suddenly opened revealing a very long corridor.
There was a huge fox head statue at the end of the very long corridor.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply after she read the treasure game''s rules and thought in annoyance: ''These rules... are quite tricky and troublesome...''
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and stared at the very long corridor and the huge fox head statue at the end of the corridor.
''It looks not quite far away... The approximate distance might be around 10 miles away... But I do not know yet if there are any tricks or traps in the corridor so I better be more careful...'' Tang Li Xue observed carefully and deduced in her mind.
However, Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head and thought: ''No, I am very sure there must be some kind of tricks or traps in the corridor since the rules even remind us to ''be careful''!''
At this time, Tang Li Xue did not hesitate and decided to enter [Divine Posession] mode with Yaya right from the start!
*Ding!
[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]
Just when Tang Li Xue and the other foxes rushed toward the fox head statue as quickly as they could...
The eyes of the fox head statue suddenly opened!
Tang Li Xue and the other foxes instantly halted their movement at the same time as if someone pressed a pause button in the movie.
But then the eyes of the fox head statue shed in blinding red light!
BWOOOOOOSHH~!
The fox head statue was actually shooting destructive rays from its eyes!
BOOOOOOOMMM~!
The destructive rays struck one of the foxes behind Tang Li Xue until its body shattered to pieces and turned into a group of white lights, then disappeared.
Unfortunately, the other foxes near the killed fox also moved a little in reflex, while one of them only blinked its eyes.
Of course, the fox head statue immediately realized it!
BOOOOMM~! BOOOMM~! BOOOMM~!
Three other foxes were also got eliminated by the destructive rays shot by the fox head statue!
Tang Li Xue almost wanted to gulp her saliva in nervousness, but she hastily suppressed it.
''Stop moving and does nothing'' literally bepletely like a statue, even blinking, breathing, or swallowing saliva was not allowed!
Because the moment when their chest, throat, or eyelid were moving even a little bit, then it would certainly be their end!
But some of the foxes still did not learn any lesson from the other foxes and decided to do something underhanded!
BBBAAAAAANNNG~!
Something invisible struck the red fox all of a sudden until it was thrown off and crashed onto the corridor''s right wall!
The eyes of the fox head statue were shining with crimson light again as it shot destructive rays again!
BOOOOMMM~!
The red fox exploded into pieces under the destructive rays and scattered into white lights, then vanished.
''Damn it~!'' Why the hell was only that red fox being punished? What about the one who knocked the red fox?! You let it go just like that?!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart without changing her expression at all.
Even though the fox head statue disregarded the sneaky attacker fox, but Tang Li Xue still did not dare to act rashly right now.
Because Tang Li Xue was still unclear about how the sneaky attacker fox did it previously.
Could that sneaky fox really attack anyone without ''moving and doing anything''?
But that sounds impossible, right?!
Since the rules said that ''they must stop moving and does nothing when the fox head statue stared at them'' then it should literally mean that they could not do anything right at this moment...
Tang Li Xue''s expression became solemn at that moment as she thought: ''This is really bad... We would certainly die if that sneaky fox keep attacking us right now!''
Fortunately, the sneaky fox did not attack anyone again after that...
A few minutester, the fox head statue finally turned around and showed its nine tails on them!
"Oh, sh*t~!" Tang Li Xue hastily closed her topaz blue eyes and quickly bowed her head.
However, several reckless foxes swiftly charged toward the fox head statue as fast as they could, but theypletely forgot and did not heed the second rule of this treasure game!
The second rule said ''You can move and do anything when the fox head statue turned around, but you must never stare at the tails behind the fox head statue!''
After a few seconds, the bodies of those several reckless foxes became rigid, and they were actually turned into stone statues!
There were a group of white lights flying and scattering above the stone statues that indicated those several reckless foxes were already died and got eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm herself down when she sensed those reckless foxes ends with her [Extrasensory Perception].
She also took this chance to carefully observe the remaining foxes in this treasure game.
There were only five foxes left, but all of them could not be underestimated...
Tang Li Xue also became even more wary of them and quickly took some distance against them since the sneaky attacker fox was certainly among these five foxes!
''What a sh*tty game is this?! If I cannot stare at the fox head statue at this time, how could I know if it already turned around or not?!'' Tang Li Xue groaned in vexation.
Despite all of herints, Tang Li Xue still decided to rush toward the fox head statue at full speed!
However, she still did not dare to go all out using all of her agility-increasing buffs and rushing to the fox head statue using her fastest skill.
Tang Li Xue still applied her ''be patient and watch carefully'' strategy for now...
''Sigh... If only I still have [Lightning Form] divine ability... This treasure game would surely be a piece of cake for me~!'' Tang Li Xue fussed again in her heart.
When her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed the movement from the fox head statue, Tang Li Xue quickly raised her head and halted her move.
But right at this time, Tang Li Xue almost wanted to frown deeply in dejection, but fortunately, she could quickly suppress it.
Because she actually did not get closer to the fox head statue at all even after moving forward in full speed for one or two minutes!
''I know it would not be so easy to win this treasure game!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in anger inside her mind.
This time, the remaining five foxes plus Tang Li Xue had already understood the game rules better, so no one got punished by the fox head statue.
But an unexpected simr incident happened once again!
BBBAAAAAAAANNGG~!
The grey fox suddenly got struck by something invisible and rolled on the ground in pain!
"NO~! This is not fair~! I..." The grey fox shouted itsint with an unwilling tone.
Unfortunately, the eyes of the fox head statue shed in blinding cold red light as it mercilessly shot destructive rays toward the grey fox without even letting it finish its words!
The grey fox swiftly split into many clones and scattered in different directions!
However, the destructive rays could lock the real grey fox in an instant and break the grey fox''s body in an instant!
BOOOOOOOMMM~!
Just like the previous victims of the destructive rays, the grey fox turned into a group of white light and dissipated.
''Again?! It actually happened again?! How could that sneaky bast*rd do it?! Could we really attack anyone as long as we did not move?'' Tang Li Xue thought deeply in frustration, but she still did not get it how could the sneaky fox do it under the watchful eyes of that fox head statue.
Chapter 560: Reckless Move!
Tang Li Xue felt very depressed right now.
''Damn it~! Without [Sun and Moon Aegis]''s deadly blows protection and my [Twin Moons], I do not even have any chance to do any experiment!'' She thought again in frustration.
Actually, Tang Li Xue was really itching to try something more daring like using [Mother Earth''s Gift] to create a violent earthquake right at this moment when the fox head statue was staring at them!
She wondered if she could eliminate all other foxes at once using that way...
She also wondered if she could use her [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment] to hide herself from the fox head statue''s detection...
She even wanted to try to build a thick stone wall to cover the fox head statue by using her [Mother Earth''s Gift] and see if she could cover the fox head statue''s sight with that method.
Unfortunately, she did not dare to try to do any of it without her [Sun and Moon Aegis]''s deadly blows protection or [Damage Transfer] from her [Twin Moons] divine ability.
After two minutes, the fox head statue finally turned around.
All foxes including Tang Li Xue hastily closed their eyes and did not dare to stare at the fox statue''s tails.
But one of them was actually taking advantage of this situation tounch a sudden crazy attack on other foxes!
Go, [Thousand me Crows]!
In that instant, countless dark me crows appeared densely in the corridor and dived toward all of the foxes including Tang Li Xue!
BOOOOOOOOMMM~! BOOOOOOOOMMM~! BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
However, Tang Li Xue already sensed them beforehand with her [Extrasensory Perception], and she hastily used one of Yaya''s defense skills to protect herself!
[Hurricane Barrier]!
BWOOOOOSSHH~!
A huge hurricane wall swiftly appeared to protect Tang Li Xue from so many explosive dark me crows!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger as she intended tounch a counterattack against the other foxes using [Cyclone Storm]!
But before she could do it, the fox head statue already turned toward them and stared at them again!
Tang Li Xue nervously dispersed her [Hurricane Barrier], then hastily halted her breath and movement.
While the ck fox, who just used the [Thousand me Crows], did not even move at all, but it was still wantonly using its [Thousand me Crows] tounch another wave of attack toward the other foxes!
''Damn, this stupid bast*rd wanted to kill itself together with us?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in disbelief.
However, the fox head statue already detected the ck fox''s reckless movement as its eyes were shining with crimson light and shot its destructive rays at the ck fox!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The ck fox''s body was shattered to pieces under the fox head statue''s destructive rays and scattered as a group of white lights.
Its [Thousand me Crows] was also canceled in that instant and dispersed before they could strike the other foxes and explode.
Tang Li Xue almost wanted to reflexively sigh in relief, but thankfully, she reacted faster to suppress it.
This time, no fox got struck sneakily by something invisible like before after more than one minute had passed.
''I see... I think I can already guess half of it now~! Well, it is thanks to that stupid ck fox''s contribution... If it did not do that rash action, I might never be able to eliminate a few possibilities...'' Tang Li Xue confidently thought.''''
Since the ck fox did not make any move before, but the fox head statue stillunched a punishment attack on it, then it means that they really could not do anything includingunch any kind of attack sneakily on anyone under the fox head statue''s stare!
''There are only two more possibilities left... The culprit might be using the trap-type divine ability, or it might be using the dy-type attack skill. It is only one of these two possibilities.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Tang Li Xue silently felt relief in her heart. Luckily, she did not try to do anything sneakily like that stupid reckless ck fox, or she might already be eliminated by the fox head statue right now.
''Sigh... I feel a bit relieved after I find out about that, and its threat to me is also decreased greatly as long as I am more careful with it. Now I can start to think about another problem...'' Tang Li Xue murmured in her mind.
Yes, Tang Li Xue needed to think about another crucial problem...
Tang Li Xue found out that they actually did not get close to the fox head statue at all!
Or maybe she came closer to it a little bit, but she failed to sense it?
Anyway, the fox head statue still looked 10 miles away from her right now.
With Tang Li Xue in [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya, she should be able to reach the fox head statue in only a few seconds...
But right now, the fox head statue still looked 10 miles away from her after she rushed in full speed for several minutes!
Moreover, Tang Li Xue was also really worried if the crimson skies domain outside was still there or not...
Her stamina and energy had already been exhausted even more now, maybe only a fifth of them was left.
If she went all out andpletely exhausted all of her energy and stamina here, even if she won this fourth treasure game, it would be all of naught if the crimson skies domain still persisted outside.
She would instantly get mind-controlled the moment when she was kicked out of this treasure game, even the treasure she got by winning this fourth treasure game would certainly get snatched by the crimson skies domain''s user.
''Aisss~! So many problems I must face... Sigh, I am so tired...'' Tang Li Xue felt almost overwhelmed by them, and she really wanted to give up so badly right now.
Without Tang Li Xue realizing it, the fox head statue already turned around.
The other foxes started to rush forward toward the fox head statue at full speed.
Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation as she canceled the [Divine Possession] with Yaya and satzily on the corridor''s cold floor instead.
Tang Li Xue ignored Yaya''s protest and hastily put Yaya into her system''s pet space.
But Yaya quickly calmed down and epted it after Tang Li Xue told Yaya about the current game rules and the danger.
Of course, it did not mean Tang Li Xue was giving up right now.
It was just she suddenly decided to take a rest instead of rushing forward blindly.
''Yes, that is right... It is really an unwise move to rush forward blindly right now. Especially since we cannot even move closer to the fox head statue until now after rushing in full speed for several minutes before.'' Tang Li Xue said in her heart.
However, Tang Li Xue never nned to let the other foxes get away from her that easily, especially since there was a sneaky fox among them who liked tounch sneakily attacks on others!
Tang Li Xue was already quite far ahead of all the other foxes thanks to her extremely high speed in [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya, but right now, the other foxes quickly passed her one after another.
[Mother Earth''s Gift]!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
A great earthquake that Tang Li Xue urged with [Mother Earth''s Gift] instantly shook the entire corridor!
Different from the previous mirror maze space, this entire corridor was clearly much more steady and stable since there was no crack or copsed wall even after the great earthquake struck.
The other foxes also staggered unsteadily because of the violent earthquake!
Tang Li Xue took this chance to attack all of them at once!
''Trap-type divine ability? Dy-type attack skill? Heh~! So what?! I can also do it too if I want it~!'' Tang Li Xue smugly muttered in her mind.
[Energy Maniption] plus [Mother Earth''s Gift]!
Tang Li Xue instantly activated the two of her divine abilities at the same time!
She used [Energy Maniption] to create trap wire webs and controlled them to fly toward the other foxes, then caught all of them in one move!
She also used [Mother Earth''s Gift] to create stone cages to trap and restrain the other foxes!
"All of you, be my nutrition and provide me with all of your energy!" Tang Li Xue urged them with a cold tone.
[Essence Devouring Technique]!
In that instant, the energy from the other three foxes was drained by Tang Li Xue at once!
The other three foxes red at Tang Li Xue angrily.
They were geniuses from their own region or continent, but Tang Li Xue treated them lightly as her nutrition, so how could they not feel very angry toward Tang Li Xue?!
Just when they wanted to struggle with all of their strength to free themselves from Tang Li Xue''s wire webs, cages, and restrictions...
The fox head statue had already started to turn around and stared at all of them again!
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] already sensed the fox head statue''s movement without even need for her to always look at it.
Tang Li Xue immediately canceled her [Essence Devouring Technique], then stopped moving and breathing.
In fact, Tang Li Xue was still feeling very nervous right now since her wire webs, stone cages, and restrictions were still binding the other three foxes.
If the fox head statue judged that Tang Li Xue was still ''doing something'' to the other foxes right now, then she would certainly get eliminated by it soon.
After a few seconds had passed, and the fox head statue did notunch any attack on her, Tang Li Xue finally felt relieved.
Chapter 561: Tang Li Xues New Plan!
Chapter 561: Tang Li Xue''s New n!
''Hehehe... So, it is like this~! As long as I ''stop moving and does nothing'' when the fox head statue stared at us, then everything will be all right~! And also, it will never heed anything we do when it did not look in this direction!'' Tang Li Xue happily concluded in her heart.
Even if Tang Li Xue made the entire corridor copse or set countless traps in the entire corridor, the fox head statue would not care as long as Tang Li Xue did them before it stared in their direction like now.
''Uwehehehehe~! Then this game will be too easy for me~!'' Tang Li Xue secretly snickered in her heart.
Yes, what Tang Li Xue was nning to do right now was to slow down the other foxes while kept draining their energy to replenish hers!
Tang Li Xue already thought of several crafty tricks using her divine abilities in her mind when all of the foxes in the corridor did not dare to move or breathe as the fox head statue kept staring at them.
But the fox head statue did not stare at them for too long this time.
After less than one minute, the fox head statue already turned around and only showed its tails.
Tang Li Xue hastily activated her [Essence Devouring Technique] again!
The other three foxes red menacingly at Tang Li Xue in anger as they prepared themselves to break free from Tang Li Xue''s wire webs, stone cages, and all other restrictions.
Who knew the fox head statue only turned around for less than one second, then it spun so quickly and stared at them again!
Tang Li Xue''s heart almost jumped into her throat in shock and fright as she swiftly canceled her [Essence Devouring Technique].
However, the fox head statue''s merciless eyes were already shining with crimson light and shot destructive rays!
''Damn it~! Who is its target?! Is it me or...'' Tang Li Xue thought nervously as she almost reflexively used her [Shadow sh] to avoid the destructive rays.
But she quickly suppressed it and decided to stand still, then do nothing as usual.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The destructive rays'' target was actually the apricot-colored fox!
Without even having any chance to shout or react, the apricot-colored fox''s body shattered to pieces under the destructive rays'' attack, and scattered as a group of white lights, then disappeared.
Tang Li Xue almost wanted to gulp her saliva nervously, but she hastily resisted the urge.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue could not sweat in her fox form, if not, her cold sweat might already fall onto the floor and create a puddle of water right now.
''Err... Or maybe not... I wonder if sweating also counts as doing something or not? Will I get eliminated if I am sweating in my human form? Well, forget it... This is not the time for me to think about something unimportant like that...'' Tang Li Xue started to clear all her distracting thoughts.
To be honest, the surrounding atmosphere was really tense right now...
Because all the foxes in this corridor including Tang Li Xue realized that the fox head statue was secretly stepping up the difficulty level of this game.
Yes, the movement speed and reaction speed of the fox head statue suddenly increased a lot just now!
''Does this signing to us that this game actually has a time limit? The longer it takes for us to reach the fox head statue, the higher the difficulty would increase?'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
nd¦Ásn¦Ïv¦Ål
Tang Li Xue silently sighed in disappointment.
Just a few minutes ago, she nned to slowly drain the energy from other foxes and stall for more time to rest until she fully recovered before she would end this treasure game.
However, it seems her n was no longer feasible right now.
The fox head statue''s suddenst move almost made her fail to react, if it increased the difficulty level once more, even Tang Li Xue would not be able to react on time anymore unless she entered [Divine Possession] with Yaya again.
''Never mind... At worst, I will just look for another nearest pir of golden light and quickly participate in another treasure game if the crimson skies domain still persists outside.'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
''Since I could not stall for more time here anymore, it is better to think about how to win this treasure game as soon as possible before the difficulty increased again.'' Tang Li Xue began to think about the way to win this treasure game carefully.
When Tang Li Xue was still in deep thought, the fox head statue finally turned around and stopped staring at them after two minutes had passed.
The remaining two foxes hastily used this chance to break free from all of Tang Li Xue''s restrictions!
[Shadow des]!
[Freezing Impact]!
BBBAAAAAAAAANNNG~!
All of Tang Li Xue''s wire webs, stone cages, and other restrictions shattered at once under the two foxes'' simultaneous attacking skills!
Then both of them began tounch their counterattack on Tang Li Xue!
But before the two of them could do anything, Tang Li Xue had alreadyunched her next moves to both of them!
[Energy Maniption], Shackling Chain!
Plus [Mother Earth''s Gift], Stone Pirs!
Combo technique, Crucifixion!
The remaining two foxes found themselves tied to the stone pir, the moment when they broke free from Tang Li Xue''s previous restrictions!
After that, Tang Li Xue activated her [Essence Devouring Technique] again to drain their energy and stamina without any hesitation!
"Stop your futile resistance and be good foxes~! Just let me drain you two until dry~!" Tang Li Xue spoke to them in a teasing tone.
''Humph~! So what if you two can break free from my restrictions?! I can just create another restriction again and again until I suck the two of you to dry! Uhhh... Wait a minute, why it suddenly sounds so lewd... No, no, no, I mean... This should be my previous n! This outdated tactic is no longer good. I should think and change to a new n soon.'' Tang Li Xue suddenly realized in her heart.
However, the fox head statue already swiftly turned around and stared in their direction again!
Tang Li Xue hastily canceled her [Essence Devouring Technique], then halted her breathing and movement, but she secretly cursed and insulted the fox head statue for hundred times in her heart.
''Fuuuhhhh... Calm down, Tang Li Xue~! There is no use for you to get so pissed off at a mere sh*tty stone statue~!'' Tang Li Xue quickly calmed down her annoyance.
It was actually very normal for Tang Li Xue to be so pissed off at the fox head statue right now because only two or three seconds had passed, and the fox head statue already stared at them again!
It seems even the time for them to do anything was greatly shortened right now as the difficulty level was increased...
If the difficulty level increased again once more, their time to do anything might be only 0,1 to 0,5 seconds.
''Damn it~! What the hell is wrong with this game?! Our time to move decreased from a few minutes to a few seconds?! Are you kidding me?!'' Tang Li Xueined in frustration.
The fox head statue turned around again and stopped staring at them after dozen seconds.
BAAAAAAAANNNG~!
The two other foxes broke free from Tang Li Xue''s restriction again, but Tang Li Xue did not n to restrict them again this time.
Because her current n was to win this treasure game as soon as possible before the difficulty increased again!
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, the other two foxes did not n to let her go just like that!
The other two foxesunched their attacks on Tang Li Xue in anger!
[Shadow des]!
[Icy Frost Cones]!
Tang Li Xue immediately used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to avoid their attacks and swiftly keep her distance from them!
''The fastest way to defeat both of them is by using [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes], but that divine ability is too exhausting for the current me. Moreover, I need to save my stamina and energy to resist the crimson skies domainter.'' Tang Li Xue''s mind began to think faster to keep up with the pace of their battle and the fox head statue''s timing.
Entering [Perfect Assimtion] in this situation was also self-defeating since the fox head statue would surely eliminate Tang Li Xue when it saw the dancing deep blue me of Pride that shrouded her entire body in [Perfect Assimtion] mode.
''Sigh... Let''s just run away from them quickly rather than wasting my time and energy to keep fighting meaninglessly against them like this...'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind.
Tang Li Xue hastily turned away from the other two foxes while using her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] again to rush swiftly toward the fox head statue!
But the fox head statue had turned around once more and stared at them for the umpteenth time!
Tang Li Xue and the other two foxes instantly halted their breath and movement again.
BAAAAAAAAANNNG~!
However, one of the two other foxes, the shadow fox, got struck by something invisible again until its body was thrown off and crashed into the corridor''s wall!
The eyes of the fox head statue shone with crimson light and mercilessly shot its destructive rays at the shadow fox!
"No, how could I..." The shadow fox muttered in disbelief, then it stared at the icy blue fox in extreme fury.
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
But before the shadow fox could finish its words or do anything to the icy blue fox, the destructive rays already struck its body until it shattered to pieces and scattered as a group of white lights.
Chapter 562: Bugged Treasure Game?!
Tang Li Xue''s heart turned cold when she saw the shadow fox''s miserable fate.
''This backstabbing sneaky blue fox is the type I hate the most! Change of n again~! It seems I must do whatever it takes to get rid of this backstabbing sneaky blue fox first or I could not think and do anything in peace!'' Tang Li Xue solemnly decided in her heart.
After twenty seconds or so, the fox head statue stopped staring at Tang Li Xue and the icy blue fox, then turned around.
Tang Li Xue and the icy blue fox quickly turned their head to face each other with cold expressions.
[Wings of Freedom] activated!
[Talisman of Giant Strength], [Talisman of Lightning Speed], and [Talisman of Iron Skin], were all also activated~!
Since she decided to take down the icy blue fox first, then she must do it as fast as she could before the fox head statue was staring at them again!
[Earth Stomping Hammer]!
By wielding her [Mother Earth''s Gift], Tang Li Xue instantly created a huge heavy pir from the ceiling above the corridor, and it suddenly fell heavily toward the icy blue fox!
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The icy blue fox managed to hastily dodge the huge heavy pir by rolling to the left side!
But Tang Li Xue already closed the distance between them in an instant with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to make their fight into a melee battle!
[Moon Shattering Strike]!
Tang Li Xue headbutted strike the icy blue fox''s abdomen heavily!
BBAAAAAAAANNNG~!
The icy blue fox had sted away dozen of meters by Tang Li Xue''s attack until it crashed heavily onto the left side of the corridor''s wall!
The icy blue fox felt several of its ribs were broken, and it coughed several mouthfuls of blood.
Tang Li Xue did not n to give the icy blue fox any time to breathe or react.
But when she nned to use her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to chase after the icy blue fox andunched another attack toward it again, her four limbs had actually been frozen by the icy blue fox!
''Tsk~! As I expected from this sneaky backstabbing fox, it is really smart and hard to deal with!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance.
However, Tang Li Xue had already determined to take down this sneaky backstabbing fox before the fox head statue turned around and stared at them again, so she decided to get more serious right now!
Because the icy blue fox would certainly do its previous dirty trick on Tang Li Xue at the next chance!
At that time, Tang Li Xue might not be able to do anything to prevent it anymore, and she might really get eliminated from this Fox Hunting Festival!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and used the deep blue me of Pride to melt the ice that restricted her four limbs.
[Energy Maniption], Rain of Swords!
[Mother Earth''s Gift], Stone Spikes!
Tang Li Xue instantly wielded both her [Energy Maniption] and [Mother Earth''s Gift] to attack the icy blue fox from the ground and air!
The icy blue fox immediately knew that it could no longer dodge Tang Li Xue''s barrage of attacks, so it decided to use its ice-type divine ability to defend itself!
[ciel Barrier]!
The icy blue fox''s body got covered inside an ice ball in an instant!
BAAAAAAAAAANGG~! BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s violent attacks mercilessly showered the iceball for a dozen seconds, but all of them failed to break the iceball!
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she thought with a solemn expression: ''This sneaky fox is actually harder to defeat than I thought... Damn it, this is really not good for me! The situation might be worse than I previously imagined!''
The icy blue fox still hid inside the sturdy ice ball, but it started tounch its counterattack on Tang Li Xue from within it!
[Freezing Ice Coffin]!
BAAAANNGGG~!
Tang Li Xue''s entire body was instantly frozen and trapped inside a huge ice chunk.
The extremely cold temperature seeped into her flesh and bones, even her blood was almost frozen into ice.
Thankfully, her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline began to work to disperse the extreme coldness, while [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline started to heat her entire body.
If not for both of her extraordinary bloodlines, Tang Li Xue might have already frozen into an ice statue right now.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger, but just when she wanted to use her me of Pride to melt the entire ice chunk that trapped her entire body and restricted her movement, the fox head statue already turned around and stared at them again.
Both Tang Li Xue and the icy blue fox immediately stopped their fierce battle, then halted their movement and breathe.
Tang Li Xue became extremely frustrated right now since she must resist the extreme coldness of the icy blue fox''s [Freezing Ice Coffin], and she could not break free from it as long as the fox head statue was still staring at them.
Just so you know, both her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline would never work for free... They consumed a lot of her stamina and energy every time they worked to resist something for her!
So currently, Tang Li Xue''s stamina and energy were consumed rapidly to resist the extreme coldness of the icy blue fox''s [Freezing Ice Coffin]!
Luckily, the fox head statue only stared at them for twenty seconds or so, then it turned around again...
Tang Li Xue immediately woke up the sleeping Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian and entered [Perfect Assimtion] mode with it without any hesitation!
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The big chunk of ice instantly evaporated to white vapor under the extremely high temperature of the deep blue me of Pride!
"I want to see how sturdy your ice ball barrier is?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a cold voice.
[Double Earth Stomping Hammers]!
Two huge heavy pirs were instantly created by Tang Li Xue from the ceiling above and from the hard floor below.
Both of the huge heavy pirs sandwiched the ice ball barrier between them as they violently crushed the ice ball barrier like two huge hammers!
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The ice ball barrier was shattered to pieces like a fragile ss ball, but the icy blue fox already jumped out right before [Double Earth Stomping Hammers] destroyed the ice ball barrier.
Tang Li Xue did not let the icy blue fox have any time to recover as she swiftlyunched another attack toward it!
[Fire Breath]!
The icy blue fox actually only pretended to be dizzy, but it alsounched its sneak attack on Tang Li Xue when Tang Li Xue got closer to it!
[Freezing Spray]!
Tang Li Xue''s deep blue mes of Pride shed head-on with the extremely cold icy breath!
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Both Tang Li Xue and the icy blue fox were sted away by a great thermal explosion when the extremely hot deep blue mes of Pride met with an extremely cold icy breath!
Tang Li Xue hastily condensed a pair of deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back. She skillfully spun several times in mid-air and pped her [Phoenix Wings] to stabilize herself, then she managed tond gracefully onto the floor.
Meanwhile, the icy blue fox crashed heavily onto the corridor''s wall again for the second time, and it made its wounds be even more severe.
Even though Tang Li Xue seemed to hold more advantage in this sh, but Tang Li Xue did not feel happy at all.
She already activated so many buffs and entered [Perfect Assimtion] with Phoenix of Pride, but she was still faced with so much difficulty in ying this icy blue fox right now so how could she feel happy about it?!
''Damn, it~! No more ying around! I will get more serious right now!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she gnashed her fangs in annoyance.
[Energy Maniption] plus me of Pride!
Tang Li Xue condensed several dozens of white swords using her [Energy Maniption] andpressed them all into one huge sword!
Then she imbued the huge sword using her deep blue me of Pride!
[Paragon me Sword], unleashed!
A huge deep blue me sword flew swiftly toward the icy blue fox!
Just the extremely high temperature emitted from the huge deep blue me sword, the icy blue fox''s heart had already felt frightened!
The icy blue fox knew that it could no longer hide or avoid this huge deep blue me sword, so it could only do its best to defend against this huge deep blue me sword.
But right at this time, the fox head statue suddenly turned around and stared at the two of them!
The icy blue fox instantly felt relieved, and it revealed a victorious smile to Tang Li Xue.
It looked like this icy blue fox already set its sneak trick to eliminate Tang Li Xue this time.
Just when the icy blue fox felt that it was already won this treasure game...
Tang Li Xue''s [Paragon me Sword] actually did not stop moving toward the icy blue fox at all!
The icy blue fox felt shocked and disbelief.
How could the fox head statue not punish Tang Li Xue for this?!
The icy blue fox hastily used its defense skill to block Tang Li Xue''s [Paragon me Sword]!
[ciel Barrier]!
However, Tang Li Xue''s [Paragon me Sword] cut both the ice ball barrier along with the icy blue fox so easily like butter!
The eyes of the fox head statue were also shining with crimson light, and it shot the destructive rays on the icy blue fox that already cut in two without any mercy!
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The icy blue fox''s body shattered to pieces under the destructive rays while the deep blue mes kept burning its body pieces to nothingness.
Then icy blue fox turned into a group of white light and disappeared like the others before.
Tang Li Xue silently felt relieved in her heart.
When the fox head statue stared at them, she decided to just throw away the [Paragon me Sword] to the icy blue fox, then hastily canceled her [Perfect Assimtion] with Phoenix of Pride.
Thankfully, she did all of those on time before the fox head statue opened its eyes to stare at them again, so she did not get punished by the fox head statue.
After a few seconds, the fox head statue stopped staring at Tang Li Xue and turned around to show its tails again.
Tang Li Xue waited and waited for a few more moments...
"Eh? Wait... What happens? Why haven''t I been teleported out yet?" Tang Li Xue muttered as her heart was beating harder in nervousness.
"Damn it~! I have already defeated all the other participants! So, howe I haven''t won this treasure game yet?! What do you want me to do again?! Don''t tell me this treasure game is bugged?!" Tang Li Xueined in anger.
Chapter 563: Hopeless Situation!
Chapter 563: Hopeless Situation!
Tang Li Xue felt extremely angry and disappointed, but since there was nothing she could do about it right now.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down, then she started rushing forward again at full speed in the corridor toward the fox head statue, but this time, she waspletely alone.
Just like before, she would stop her breathing and movement every time the fox head statue turned around and stared at her, but she would run forward again at full speed when the fox head statue stopped looking at her.
After doing it repeatedly for ten minutes or so, she immediately realized that the distance between her and the fox head statue was not getting closer at all.
Tang Li Xue was very frustrated, and she started to believe that this treasure game was really bugged.
''Sigh... Is this really hopeless? Am I fated to only go this far?'' Tang Li Xue doubtfully asked herself.
''Maybe it would be better if I just try to run farther until I get out from the radius of crimson skies domain rather than blindly participating in this treasure game before...'' Tang Li Xue regretted it very much right now.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in unwillingness as extreme anger burned more fiercely in her heart, then she shouted out loud: "Damn stupid bugged treasure game~! Just from the strange rules of this treasure game, I can already see that this would be a crappy game~!"
But right at this moment, a light of inspiration suddenly shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body shuddered as if she was struck by lightning, then she began to murmur by herself: "Eh, what did I say just now? The strange rules of this treasure game? Strange rules... No way, right? Don''t tell me that..."
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining brightly like a pair of blue stars in excitement.
Yes, there were three lines of rules in this treasure game...
[All of you must stop moving and does nothing when the fox head statue stared in your direction.]
[All of you can move and do anything when the fox head statue turned around, but you must never stare at the tails behind the fox head statue!]
[The first fox to touch the fox head statue will be the winner and get the previous treasure.]
The first and third rules were not strange at all since everyone who ever yed this game will have these kinds of rules, but the second half of the second rule was a bit different from what everyone knows!
[You must never stare at the tails behind the fox head statue!]
This part was extremely strange!
It was as if the second rule was deliberately inserted to give them some kind of clue about something!
Yes, this might even be the clue to win this treasure game!
Tang Li Xue suddenly turned around until her three tails were facing the fox head statue, then she ran at full speed again!
If the other foxes were still alive, and they saw what Tang Li Xue had done right now, they might think that Tang Li Xue had already be crazy because she was currently running away in the opposite direction from the fox head statue''s location instead!
After only sprinting for ten or twenty seconds, the surrounding space started to distort.
Tang Li Xue slowed down her speed as she walked right in front of the fox head statue that suddenly appeared in front of her.
"So, here you are... Hah... Ahahahahaha~!" Tang Li Xueughed crazily.
Tang Li Xue found it really ridiculous since she and the other foxes were running forward to reach the fox head statue using so much of their effort and energy, but their real destination was actually only a few miles away behind them!
The fox head statue turned around again to stare at Tang Li Xue, but this time, Tang Li Xue did not bother to stop her movement or breath.
"I changed my mind~! This is really a good game... But the one who created this game is undoubtedly a deceptive bast*rd~!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a smile.
When the eyes of the fox head statue shone with a crimson light...
Tang Li Xue already raised her paw and touched the fox head statue.
The fox head statue''s eyes were shooting destructive rays, but Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure had already disappeared from there.
.....
Just like what Tang Li Xue had said, that kind of deceptive treasure game might be good to test their IQ while fighting in the middle of the dead or life battlefield.
But who would have enough time to think clearly about solving the puzzle like this when theypeted and fought fiercely against other foxes?!
Therefore, if Tang Li Xue could choose, she really did not want to participate in this kind of mind-breaker puzzle-type treasure game like this one ever again.
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes, she had already teleported back to the treasure ind.
She was currently beside the river in the mountain valley, and there was a treasure box right in front of her.
Although the surrounding scenery was beautiful, but Tang Li Xue did not have any mood to appreciate it because the skies above her were still painted in crimson color!
Both her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline was working hard to resist the powerful mind-controlling effect from the crimson skies domain again.
Tang Li Xue could sense that her stamina and energy were drained rapidly like before.
Tang Li Xue sighed helplessly as she grabbed her treasure box and started to run as fast as she could to get out from the crimson skies domain''s radius again.
She did not bother to activate her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to hide in order to save her stamina and energy since the other foxes that got mind-controlled did not even notice her before.
However, Tang Li Xue''s decision proved to be a big mistake this time because the mind-controlled foxes had actually noticed her this time!
[Sludge Swamp]!
The grassy ground below Tang Li Xue''s feet suddenly turned into a dark swamp, and it sucked Tang Li Xue into it!
d¦Ásvel
"Damn it~!" Tang Li Xue cursed as she urged Yaya to enter [Divine Possession] mode with her.
After entering [Divine Possession] mode, Tang Li Xue swiftly pped the transparent fairy wings on her back and flew away from the dark swamp.
The dark swamp was very poisonous, but it would not work for Tang Li Xue since both of her powerful bloodlines and her [Sun And Moon Aegis] could easily nullify any kind of poison.
But when Tang Li Xue flew higher into the sky, the rain of me arrows suddenly came from above her!
[Hurricane Barrier]!
A huge hurricane wall suddenly appeared around Tang Li Xue and easily blocked all of the me arrows.
[Paralyzing Light]!
Tang Li Xue instantly felt her entire body be stiff, and she could no longer move.
She fell rapidly from the sky, but before her body could smash into the ground, her [Sun And Moon Aegis] already helped her to clear the paralysis effect from her body.
Tang Li Xue immediately pped her transparent fairy wings to stop her fall while catching her falling treasure box, but the other fox alreadyunched another attack toward her!
[Burning Chains]!
Several me chains were binding Tang Li Xue''s body from all directions!
[Compressed Wind des]!
Using Yaya''s perfect wind control, Tang Li Xue instantly created many [Compressed Wind des] to cut all of the me chains that tied her body!
"Damn it~! There is something wrong with them! Did they really get mind-controlled by the crimson skies domain? But how could their teamwork be so good under the mind-controlling effect?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in anger and annoyance.
But when Tang Li Xue saw the crimson light in these foxes'' eyes, she became sure that these foxes were really got mind-controlled by the crimson skies domain.
However, Tang Li Xue found it extremely unbelievable since these mind-controlled foxes were not showing any sign of sluggishness or discoordination at all.
Rather than getting mind-controlled, maybe brainwashed was more correct?
Tang Li Xue did not really want to waste her energy and time fighting against these brainwashed foxes, so she decided to quickly get away from them using her speed!
[Tempest Prison]!
All of the surrounding brainwashed foxes were trapped by the prison made from the small typhoon!
Tang Li Xue took this chance to activate her speed-increasing buff and swiftly flew farther from here!
[Wind Guardian Blessing]! (Increase overall speed by 50%, and grant the user auto-dodge effect)
This time, Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice than to activate both her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to hide herself since she was quite sure that the user of this crimson skies domain might targeting her right now.
Because of that, her stamina and energy were drained even more rapidly than before!
The energy she sucked from the several foxes with a lot of hard work in the previous treasure game was already consumed in only a few minutes.
"This will not work... My stamina and energy are consumed too rapidly. At this rate, I will bepletely exhausted in less than ten minutes! I will never be able to get out of this crimson skies domain in only ten minutes! Sigh... It seems I must find another pir of golden light as soon as possible and participate in another treasure game again..." Tang Li Xue groaned in helplessness.
Tang Li Xue hastily scanned her surrounding from the sky and found out that the nearest pir of golden light was several hundred miles away from her.
That was clearly too far away from her!
Just when Tang Li Xue fell into despair and hopelessness...
She suddenly saw the sky with a beautiful aurora above the nearby forest area.
That was surely a very strange phenomenon...
How could there be a beautiful aurora sky in the middle of this crimson skies domain?
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice than to go there right now so she could avoid the mind-controlling effect from this crimson skies domain and took a rest to recover her energy.
Oh, right... She also needed some time to check the content of the treasure box and to eat that precious treasureter.
Chapter 564: First Encounter With Apex Predator Level Fox!
Chapter 564: First Encounter With Apex Predator Level Fox!
It only took a few minutes for Tang Li Xue to reach the forest area under the beautiful aurora sky.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she felt both of her bloodlines stop draining her energy and stamina to resist the mind-controlling effect from the crimson skies domain.
It seems her guess was correct. This area under the beautiful aurora sky waspletely unaffected by the crimson skies domain.
Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] while observing her surroundings carefully to see if there was any unknown danger here.
The surrounding scenery in this jungle was truly astonishingly beautiful.
Many flowers and trees were shining beautifully with different colors.
It was too beautiful to describe with words, so beautiful that Tang Li Xue felt that it waspletely abnormal.
Just like the saying Tang Li Xue ever heard before: "The prettier something was, the more poisonous and dangerous it would be."
Of course, Tang Li Xue felt that she was not included in that saying since she was not only extremely pretty but also kindhearted, adorable, sweet, graceful, elegant, cute, and so on...
After scanning the surrounding carefully for a few while, Tang Li Xue feltpletely relieved after she did not find or sense any danger even with her [Extrasensory Perception].
Tang Li Xue excitedly put the treasure box in her embrace onto the ground and slowly opened it.
She found a gray fruit lying inside the treasure box.
The color of the fruit might look unappetizing, and it looked small like a cherry, but the fragrance it emitted was different.
Tang Li Xue''s saliva was flowing uncontrobly from her mouth when she sniffed the sweet fragrance of the gray fruit.
Tang Li Xue carefully took out the gray fruit from inside the treasure box and impatiently stuffed the gray fruit into her mouth.
*Ding!
[You had consumed Dried Dharma Fruit.]
[Your Strength stat increased by 1,200.]
[Your Agility, Toughness, and Spirit stats increased by 500.]
[You have awakened (Mystic Whisper) divine ability!]
"Woaaahhh~! My stats increased so much all at once?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in disbelief.
Strength: 2,800 ---> 4,000
Agility: 2,500 ---> 3,000
Toughness: 3,000 ---> 3,500
Spirit: 2,400 ---> 2,900
Especially her strength which had already reached 4,000!
But Tang Li Xue felt a bit disappointed when she received the information about [Dried Dharma Fruit] from her system.
This [Dried Dharma Fruit] was too old and had actually almost lost its efficacy.
If this was truly the matured [Dharma Fruit] with full efficacy, the effect might be ten or twenty times more than this.
Of course, the greedy Tang Li Xue failed to realize that her tiny body might not be able to withstand the fully matured [Dharma Fruit] with full efficacy and exploded if she really ate it.
Tang Li Xue quickly checked the effect of her newly awakened divine ability, [Mystic Whisper].
[Mystic Whisper]: Using the power of words to temporarily take control of the target''s mind without the target realizing it. (The effect and power of this divine ability depend on the user''s Spirit stat. If the target''s Spirit stat is higher than the user, the effect of this divine ability will be greatly decreased or it might even not affect the target at all.)
Tang Li Xue gasped in shock as she eximed out loud: "Mind-control type divine ability?!"
"So, I have my own mind-control type divine ability right now?! Hehehehe~! Uwahahahaha~! So cool~!" Tang Li Xue excitedlyughed.
Tang Li Xue had already tasted how powerful this mind-control type divine ability was from the crimson skies domain, but right now, she suddenly obtained her own mind-control type divine ability.
nd¦Ásv¦Ål m
When Tang Li Xue was stillughing delightedly, a soft girly sound suddenly whispered from right behind her...
"You look so happy. Why are you so happy? Share it with me, so I can also feel happy with you too~!"
Tang Li Xue was very startled, and she hastily used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to take some distance away.
A small 12 years old girl with long blue hair was standing right in front of her right now with a gentle smile mixed with curiosity on her beautiful face.
But Tang Li Xue was extremely horrified since even her [Extrasensory Perception] actually failed to sense this blue-haired little girl!
"A human?" Tang Li Xue muttered in disbelief as she frowned deeply.
When Tang Li Xue saw the blue fox ears and the blue fox tails on the little girl, she immediately realized that the little girl was actually a fox in human form.
"You... are strange... How could you suddenly appear behind me just like that? Why do you still use your human transfiguration here?" Tang Li Xue vigntly asked the blue-haired little girl with an interrogative tone.
"Suddenly appear behind you?" The little girl with long blue hair muttered while tilting her head cutely, then she smiled until her dimples appears.
The little girl disappeared again right before Tang Li Xue''s vision all of a sudden!
Before Tang Li Xue could react, she heard the familiar immature sound whispered right beside her ears: "Like this?"
When Tang Li Xue sensed a warm breath exhaled onto her right ear, she hastily used Moonlight [Flickering sh Step] to the left side and turned to face the right side, but she found nothing.
The little girl with long blue hair sat right beside Tang Li Xue, and she patted Tang Li Xue''s head gently and asked with a curious tone: "Hey, hey, hey~! Quickly tell me~! Why do youughing so happily just now? Tell me quickly, so I can alsough with you~!"
Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva nervously as her breath became more hurried.
She already fought against several predator-level foxes until now.
Even though all of those predator-level foxes were very powerful, but she could still fight against them equally for a while.
But this blue-haired little girl was clearly on apletely different level than all of those predator-level foxes!
Just so you know, this blue-haired little girl was still in her human transfiguration form, so her overall stats were only a third right now!
''Should I just tell lies to her or not?'' Tang Li Xue silently pondered carefully in her mind.
"I... I just eat a delicious treasured fruit from the treasure box I got from winning the game. I am so happy because I get a new divine ability from it." Tang Li Xue answered with a fawning look.
She decided to tell the truth to the blue-haired little girl. Anyway, it would not really matter if she told her lies or the truth, right?
Who knew that the little girl with long blue hair alsoughed with a delighted expression and said while kept patting Tang Li Xue''s furry head: "I see~! Hehe, I also feel d for you~!"
"Sister, you are an honest fox. I really like an honest friend, so I will call you sister from now on. I hate liars the most. Liars are not fun." The little girl with long blue hair giggled as she hugged Tang Li Xue happily.
''Err, so it really matters!''
''Fiuhhh... Thankfully, I told her the truth, if not, who knows what this crazy little girl will do to me?!'' Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
The little girl nodded and replied with a leisurely tone: "I hate liars, so they cannot be my friends. Anyone who is not my friend is my enemy. All enemies should be eradicated."
Tang Li Xue: ''.....''
''Wait a minute, did she just read my mind?!'' Tang Li Xue suddenly realized a horrifying thing.
"Mind reading is one of my divine abilities. It is a pretty fun divine ability~!" The blue-haired little girl did not even hesitate to tell about her divine ability, perhaps she felt Tang Li Xue did not possess any threat to her so she could truthfully tell Tang Li Xue about it.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she tried her best to never think badly or curse this blue-haired little girl in her mind.
"Err... Ahahaha, thank you, little sister! But I am really busy right now, I must participate in another treasure game soon~! Yosh, goodbye, little sister~! I will go now~!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a nervous tone as she waved her paw to the blue-haired little girl and walked away from her.
"That is not good, sister~! Any friend who enters my domain must y at least one game with me before you can get out~! Come on, sister~! Let''s y~! Just one game, okay~!" The blue-haired little girl said to Tang Li Xue with an intimate tone.
Tang Li Xue became even more flustered in panic.
Even though the crimson skies domain outside gave her an extremely dangerous feeling, but this blue-haired little girl that did not trigger her [Extrasensory Perception]''s danger sense was even many times more terrifying in Tang Li Xue''s eyes.
Tang Li Xue no longer hesitate as she immediately used [Shadow sh] to teleport to a tree shade one hundred meters away from her, then she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to hide herself again.
Then she used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dash further as fast as she could from here!
However, Tang Li Xue suddenly found herself still standing where she stood before while the blue-haired little girl still hugged her like before!
Tang Li Xue waspletely taken aback.
"What the hell... is this? Illusion?" Tang Li Xue muttered in disbelief.
But her [Shadow sh] had already entered cooldown, so it should not be an illusion... right?
"Maybe it is an illusion. Maybe it is real. Everything will only work ording to my will. Illusion or real, lies or truth, is no longer important! Because I am real, I am the truth~! That is why I hate liars and fakes!" The blue-haired little girl uttered to Tang Li Xue with a teasing tone.
Tang Li Xue''s body trembled in fright as she stared at the blue-haired little girl in horror, like staring at a dreadful monster.
Chapter 565: Unexpected Rescue!
The blue-haired little girl kept caressing Tang Li Xue''s head and back happily.
She nodded her head with a contented expression while praising Tang Li Xue in a delighted tone: "Hum, hum, hum~! Sister, your furs are extremely beautiful and soft~! They are shiny with silver light like the moon~! I really like them very much!"
Tang Li Xue did not happy at all when she heard the blue-haired little girl''s praise.
She was currently pondering her next moves carefully: ''Should I still try to run away from her again? Urgh... But my stamina and energy are almost exhausted right now.''
''Even if I managed to get away from here, I will enter the crimson skies domain again... With my current condition, I will certainly bepletely exhausted in only two minutes or so. At that time, I will fall under the control of the crimson skies domain''s user.'' Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head to reject this choice.
''It seems I can only take a rest here until Ipletely recover my energy and stamina. Anyway, this mysterious little girl might have extremely terrifying divine abilities, but at least, she does not hostile to me.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation.
The blue-haired little girl giggled cutely and muttered mischievously to Tang Li Xue: "Sister, are you sure to think so openly like that in front of me? Did you already forget that I can read your mind?"
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Well, she did not really forget about that, but pondering her next moves like this was her habit.
Tang Li Xue could not just stop thinking about everything just because her enemy could read her mind, right?
Tang Li Xue instantly became even more nervous as she tried really hard to not think badly about the blue-haired little girl.
Honestly, this blue-haired little girl''s mind-reading ability was extremely annoying for Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down as she tried her best to empty her mind and not think about anything at all.
"Sister, why are you so quiet right now? Come on, talk something fun to me~!" The blue-haired little girl whispered to Tang Li Xue''s fox ear while kept caressing her soft silver furs.
Tang Li Xue ignored her and closed her topaz blue eyes to rest, so she could quickly recover her stamina and energy.
The blue-haired little girl puffed her cheek as her mood became sullen.
Tang Li Xue suddenly felt a sharp pain behind her neck, and she winced in pain.
The blue-haired little girl actually gripped Tang Li Xue''s neck so hard!
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
Tang Li Xue felt her neck bone and spine were almost broken by the blue-haired little girl''s powerful grip.
"Sister, that is not a good attitude as a friend~! If I ask you about something, then you must answer it politely. If I ask you to do something, then you must do it perfectly. Do you understand, sister~?" The blue-haired little girl rebuked Tang Li Xue with a childish sulking tone.
Tang Li Xue''s unconscious became blurry, but her strong desire to live made her subconsciously tried to reply with herst ounce of effort: "I... understand..."
The blue-haired little girl loosened her grip as a cute innocent smile bloomed on her immature face.
"Good sister~! Good friend~! I know you will not disappoint me~!" The blue-haired little girl whispered to Tang Li Xue while caressing her silver furs gently again.
"Don''t worry, sister~! Let alone that red clown queen... As long as you keep apanying me and make me happy, no one in this entire treasure ind can hurt you~!" The blue-haired little girl proudly proimed to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was extremely terrified of the moody blue-haired little girl right now, but her curiosity made her reflexively ask: "Red clown queen? Do you familiar with the fox who created this crimson skies domain? Is she your friend too?"
The blue-haired little girl suddenlyughed out loud when she heard Tang Li Xue''s question.
"Familiar? Of course, I am familiar with her. Wee from the same ce. My friend? Hehehe... She is not worthy yet to be my friend. Ummm~! It can be said she is one of my maid''s daughters." The blue-haired little girl truthfully exined to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue became even more terrified of the blue-haired little girl.
''Are you kidding me?! Such a powerful fox who can brainwash so many foxes at once should have already reached an apex predator level, but it is only her maid''s daughter?!'' Tang Li Xue screamed in fright and disbelief inside her mind.
Just when Tang Li Xue''s mind became a mess in horror, the deep blue Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian suddenly woke up and reacted violently.
''Damn it~! What is wrong with you, Dumb Bird?! Stop doing something stupid here! This is not the time for you to do anything~! Do you want us to die together so badly?!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs and scolded the Phoenix of Pride from their mind connection.
The Phoenix of Pride quickly calmed down after it heard Tang Li Xue''s scold.
But the Phoenix of Pride still sent a warning to Tang Li Xue.
''Eh? Wh... What did you just say?! You faintly sensed another one of the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits, and ite closer to us very fast?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
"Oh~? Another one of the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits? So, you also have one? What a good surprise~!" The blue-haired little girl giggled as if she just heard something interesting.
"Eh? I also have one... Don''t tell me that you are the one..." Tang Li Xue uttered in disbelief.
However, the blue-haired little girl quickly interrupted Tang Li Xue''s words and exined: "No, no, no... I don''t have any of them. But I know someone who has it really well~!"
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The beautiful aurora sky was suddenly mixed with a terrifying purple lightning storm!
Tang Li Xue and the blue-haired little girl stared at the terrifying purple lightning storm in the skies.
"Oh? Here shees~!" The blue-haired little girlughed casually, but from her tone, it seem she became even more happier.
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
A huge pir of purple lightning struck down right in front of Tang Li Xue and the blue-haired little girl!
The beautiful girl with long ck hair appeared from inside the huge purple lightning, and she currently stood in front of them with her eyes still closed.
The beautiful girl with long ck hair slowly opened her transparent purple eyes.
Devastating purple lighting shed in her transparent purple eyes making Tang Li Xue''s furs tensed in fright.
Yes, this beautiful girl with long ck hair and wearing a thin white dress was the one who sat on the cliff while humming before.
She came here because her Earthly Desire Spirit managed to sense its own kind and told this purple-eyed beautiful girl about it.
This information made the purple-eyed beautiful girl very curious about the other fox who had the Earthly Desire Spirit like her, so she decided to check it.
But when she opened her terrifying purple eyes and saw the small blue-haired little girl, she suddenly regretted it...
The blue-haired little girl smiled cutely as usual while waving her hand to greet the purple-eyed beautiful girl.
The pink lips of the purple-eyed beautiful girl twitched violently when she saw the blue-haired little girl waving toward her.
"Err, if I said that I got lost, and I identally came here. Would you two believe me?" The purple-eyed beautiful girl said to them while blushing in embarrassment.
Tang Li Xue almost slipped and fell down when she heard the purple-eyed beautiful girl''s absurd words.
Tang Li Xue thought this purple-eyed beautiful girl was extremely powerful since she came here with such a cool entrance pose...
Who knew that she immediately shrink back the moment she saw this blue-haired little girl?!
The blue-haired little girl stopped caressing Tang Li Xue and slowly stood up while saying: "Purple sister, why do you want to go so quickly~? You are still my friend, right? So,e on~! Let''s y~!"
"Of course, I am still your friend. But... Err... I still have a lot of things to do, so..." The purple-eyed beautiful girl exined while stepping closer to the blue-haired little girl.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Suddenly, the beautiful figure of the purple-eyed girl transformed into a streak of purple lightning and passed right beside the blue-haired little girl.
The purple-eyed beautiful girl swiftly grabbed Tang Li Xue and hastily flew away from there in less than one second.
"How can you bump into that monster? Do you know how dangerous she is?" The purple-eyed beautiful girl berated Tang Li Xue with a tone filled with annoyance.
Tang Li Xue felt unhappy and replied: "How could I know about that?! I never even meet her before!"
"Eh? How could you not know about her?! She is... Wait a minute... I see~! So, this must be your first time participating in the Foxes Hunting Festival, right?" The purple-eyed beautiful girl inquired Tang Li Xue.
"Yes, this is my first time. How do you know that?" Tang Li Xue was taken aback and asked curiously.
The purple-eyed beautiful girl rolled her transparent purple eyes and replied: "Because she is..."
Before the purple-eyed beautiful girl could finish her words, both she and Tang Li Xue returned back to their previous position.
The purple-eyed beautiful girl stood in front of the blue-haired little girl while Tang Li Xue sat behind the blue-haired little girl.
"You two are so mean to me~! Why are you two ying alone without inviting me?" The blue-haired little girl muttered while puffing her cheek and sulking.
Chapter 566: (Spoiler Chapter at the Bottom of This Chapter)
Chapter 566: (Spoiler Chapter at the Bottom of This Chapter)
The purple-eyed beautiful girl''s expression stiffened, and she immediately tried to coax the blue-haired little girl: "I am really sorry if I offend you, Miss Meng. But I indeed have some urgent matters to deal with that silver fox over there. Can you please let us go?"
The blue-haired little girl shook her head displeasingly as she replied: "I feel extremely bored right now~! If I let you two go right now, who will y with me in these few days?"
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched as she secretly took a few steps back.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue did not want to be dragged away by either the purple-eyed beautiful girl or the blue-haired little girl at all.
Both of them were scarily too powerful for her, and either of them could easily kill her in one move.
d¦Ásvel
Especially since all of her life protection skills were still in cooldown right now!
Oh, not all... At least, she still has active invulnerability protection from her [Sun And Moon Aegis], even though it was only for 1,5 seconds.
The purple-eyed beautiful girl sighed in disappointment when she heard the blue-haired little girl''s reply.
"Then please forgive me for my impoliteness, Miss Meng! Because I will have to use force to break away from your domain!" The purple-eyed beautiful girl muttered as her expression became very solemn.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Three-colored devastating lightning was dancing around the purple-eyed beautiful girl''s slender figure.
Purple, azure, and vermillion lightning... Each of them was extremely powerful, but the purple-eyed beautiful girl could control all of them at once so easily.
The blue-haired little girl waspletely undaunted.
She smiled happily instead while saying with a delighted tone: "Oh? Atst, you be more motivated to entertain me~! Just right to relieve my boredom~!"
The purple-eyed beautiful girl secretly sent Tang Li Xue a warning with her telepathy: "Go farther away from there quickly before you identally get killed!"
Tang Li Xue''s expression changed to panic as she immediately used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to run away as quickly as she could from there!
[Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain] opened!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The skies above them seem to be filled with cracks as the purple, azure, and vermillion, three-colored lightning, was dancing freely on the skies!
Just like its name, the purple-eyed beautiful girl''s domain looked as if it tore down and broke heaven when it deployed!
''Damn! This ck-haired girl is clearly very powerful too~! Why the hell she always looks afraid of that little Loli?! If you are this strong why do you need to be so timid?!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart.
But Tang Li Xue no longer hesitated to enter [Divine Possession] with Yaya to increase her speed even more.
*Ding!
[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]
[Wind Guardian Blessing] activated!
Tang Li Xue''s figure became blurry as her movement speed increased sharply in an instant!
However, Tang Li Xue still felt that her speed was not enough when her [Extrasensory Perception] was screaming to warn her of the iing extremely high danger!
[Breezing Step] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure suddenly vanished as she only left several afterimages on her way after her running speed increased by several times again!
"Miss Meng, I may lose to you in the previous Foxes Hunting Festival, but I had already grown even stronger right now! Go~! Lightning of Wrath~! Tear away her domain~!" The purple-eyed beautiful girl eximed with a solemn tone.
The terrifying three-colored lightning storm raged in the skies and shrouded this entire area with three-colored lightning everywhere!
The violent wind blew the little girl''s long blue hair, but she still did not take her seriously at all.
The blue-haired little girl giggled even more happily instead while saying: "Come on, sister~! Show me how strong you had be~! If you can entertain me well and make me forget my boredom, then I will give you a generous reward~!"
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!
The three-colored lightning struck violently again and again!
Their target was not the blue-haired little girl, but the beautiful aurora sky domain deployed by the blue-haired little girl!
Yes, this was the next high-level battle between the true Apex Predator-level foxes!
Domain versus domain!
While the domain user versus domain user!
If their domain broke, the user would lose control over the battle, and they would die soon!
If the user lost and got killed, their domain would also break and disappear!
In short, both the user and the domain were not allowed to lose in this kind of high-level battle between the true Apex Predator-level foxes!
The running Tang Li Xue took a nce at the skies filled with three-colored lightning in awe.
"I see, so this is my next goal... Condensing domain with my me of Pride~!" Tang Li Xue muttered with an eager tone.
She finally understood right at this moment why Instructor Mei Lan always emphasized the importance ofpression.
The next level afterpression was actually the expansion!
After she had some mastery over expansion andbined it withpression, she could finally use her power to condense a domain!
At that time, she would reach the same rank as these powerful genius foxes, the apex predator-level fox!
Of course, it was still too far away from the current Tang Li Xue, since she did not even master thepression technique properly yet.
Currently, Tang Li Xue could only enviously stare at the devastating domain battle between the blue-haired little girl and the purple-eyed beautiful girl.
The purple-eyed beautiful girl turned into a streak of purple lightning as she shed toward the blue-haired little girl!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The powerful purple lightning struck the blue-haired little girl mercilessly until her body evaporated into nothingness!
"Eh, what?! That''s it?! I thought that little Loli is extremely powerful!" Tang Li Xue uttered in disbelief and disappointment.
But the blue-haired little girl suddenly appeared again out of thin air perfectly unscathed!
"Wow~! Sister has be so much stronger already~! But now, it is my turn~!" The blue-haired little girlughed excitedly while tilting her head cutely as if she was thinking about something.
"Everyone says that lightning is strong against water. I always wonder if that is true~! Let''s try it now~! Come here, Flood Dragon~!" The blue-haired little girl muttered with a curious tone and pped her hands as if she called something out.
RROOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRR~!
Two hundred meter azure flood dragon flew down from the cloud above the skies!
It easily withstood the three-colored lightning storm in the skies and dived down toward the blue-haired little girl!
Surprisingly, the azure flood dragon acted very submissively to the blue-haired little girl.
The blue-haired little girl patted the azure flood dragon''s huge head and said: "Good boy~! I like obedient boys the most~! Now, go and y with that sister for me~!"
The purple-eyed beautiful girl''s pink lips twitched a bit when she saw what the blue-haired little girl had just done.
It was clear that even the purple-eyed beautiful girl found it hard to believe that the blue-haired little girl could create a new life form out of nothing with her ability.
The purple-eyed beautiful girl praised in a humble matter: "Miss Meng''s [Regalia of Reality] has be more and more unfathomable."
But the two-hundred-meter azure flood dragon already charged violently toward the purple-eyed beautiful girl!
Come out, [Lightning of Wrath]!
ZIZIZIZZIZI~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
A bolt of three-colored lightning jumped out from the purple-eyed beautiful girl''s body all of a sudden!
NEEEIIIIGHHH~!
"That... So, that is the true form of the Lightning of Wrath? That is... a mythical beast, Kirin?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock.
The three-colored lightning kirin charged forward excitedly without any fear toward the two-hundred-meter azure flood dragon!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The three-colored lightning kirin and the flood dragon shed head-on violently and began to fight in melee battle!
''C... CRAZY~! This is not good! The battle them is too dangerous! I should just run far away from here quickly!'' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind.
At first, Tang Li Xue decided to take some rest to recover her stamina and energy after distancing herself a dozen miles away from their battle.
But it seems she still underestimated the true power of these two apex predator-level foxes... The battle between them was much more destructive and dangerous than she ever thought!
Even if she was already more than a dozen of miles away from them, she could still identally get killed if she was not careful!
Just when Tang Li Xue turned away and almost dashed away further from there, the purple-eyed beautiful girl warned her again with telepathy: ''Don''t run away too far! Her [Regalia of Reality] will only rewind your location back if you run too far away from here!''
''Just wait patiently there! I will create a tiny gap in her [Illusion Reality Domain], so we can take that chance to quickly slip away from hereter!'' The purple-eyed beautiful girl whispered to Tang Li Xue with telepathy again.
Tang Li Xue hesitated and pondered for a few moments, but she still decided toply with the purple-eyed beautiful girl''s idea.
Well, it would be a certain death end, if Tang Li Xue got teleported back to her previous location where the blue-haired little girl and the purple-eyed beautiful girl were currently fighting very fiercely against each other right now!
The purple-eyed beautiful girl turned into a streak of purple lightning and shed toward the blue-haired little girl once again!
This time, she decided not to use killing skills to attack the blue-haired little girl, but she nned to restrict the blue-haired little girl instead!
[Demon Sealing Lightning Pagoda]!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The purple-eyed beautiful girl skillfully used her three-colored lightning to condense a three-colored ze pagoda that sealed the blue-haired little girl inside it in an instant!
Chapter 566: [Lightning of Wrath] VS [Regalia of Reality]!
Chapter 567: [Perfect Infusion Mode]!
Chapter 567: [Perfect Infusion Mode]!
The blue-haired little girl did not even take the [Demon Sealing Lightning Pagoda] seriously.
She chuckled while looking around the interior of [Demon Sealing Lightning Pagoda] in a curious manner.
Shepletely behaved like a tourist sightseeing at an attraction ce.
"Wow, this ce... umm, I mean this skill is quite interesting~! Sister, why have you not used this in the previous festival? If you used this at that time, it might be able to restrain me by a few points, but now..." The blue-haired little girl muttered while sighing in disappointment.
The purple-eyed beautiful girl''s pink lips twitched again in annoyance and thought: ''This is the new skill I worked so hard to create recently, so how could I use it in the previous festival?! I have not even created it at that time~!''
Despite the blue-haired little girl''sints, the purple-eyed beautiful girl did not mind it and still urged her [Demon Sealing Lightning Pagoda] to suppress the blue-haired little girl inside it!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The [Demon Sealing Lightning Pagoda] was enveloped by the devastating three-colored lightning until the entire pagoda was brightly lit in blinding three colors!
"[Demon Sealing Lightning Pagoda], go~! Seal her for me!" The purple-eyed beautiful girl ordered with a stern tone.
''Be ready~! We will take the chance to slip away from here after my [Demon Sealing Lightning Pagoda] sealed that monster! But it might notst long, maybe only a few seconds at best!'' The beautiful purple-eyed girl told Tang Li Xue with telepathy.
Tang Li Xue silently nodded at the purple-eyed beautiful girl with a solemn expression.
The devastating three-colored lightning solidified into countless rainbow-colored chains.
Those countless rainbow-colored chains bound the blue-haired little girl inside the [Demon Sealing Lightning Pagoda]!
The slender figure of the beautiful purple-eyed girl transformed into purple lightning and shed toward Tang Li Xue, then she grabbed Tang Li Xue and muttered: "This is our chance~! Let''s go~!"
BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Unfortunately, before they could do anything the [Demon Sealing Lightning Pagoda] already exploded to pieces!
The blue-haired little girl instantly appeared right between Tang Li Xue and the purple-eyed beautiful girl without any of them sensing it at all.
Tang Li Xue: ''?!"
The purple-eyed beautiful girl: ''?!''
"Sister, that is very rude! If you two want to y hide and seek, you should tell me about it first~!" The blue-haired little girl spoke to the purple-eyed beautiful girl with a joking tone.
d¦Ásvel
The purple-eyed beautiful girl did not expect that her [Demon Sealing Lightning Pagoda] could not even restrain the blue-haired little girl for even one second.
How long was that? 0,1 seconds?
She solidified the [Demon Sealing Lightning Pagoda] from her three-colored lightning for more than 10 seconds, but the blue-haired little girl shattered it only in 0,1 seconds?!
The purple-eyed beautiful girl became even more nervous as her forehead and back was drenched in a cold sweat.
''Sigh... This monster had be more and more unfathomable! At this rate, our chance to get away from her safely might be infinitesimal...'' The beautiful purple-eyed girl secretly whispered to Tang Li Xue with telepathy.
Tang Li Xue''s expression became strange as she stared at the beautiful purple-eyed girl.
''Err... I am sorry, big sister... But do you already know that this mon... Cough, I mean this cute and kind youngdy can actually read our mind?'' Tang Li Xue timidly asked the beautiful purple-eyed girl with her [Lock-on Telepathy].
The beautiful purple-eyed girl stared at Tang Li Xue strangely too and replied with an exaggerated surprised expression: "Eh? Wha... What are you talking about? EHHHHHH~! She can actually read out mind right now?!"
The blue-haired little girl smiled at Tang Li Xue as she put her slender index finger on her lips and winked at her while saying with a casual tone: "You should not tell her about that, but whatever... It will not be fun if I use that skill to cheat in the game, right?"
The beautiful purple-eyed girl really wanted to curse the blue-haired little girl for bing more and more monstrous, but she quickly suppressed it.
It would not be funny if she made the blue-haired little girl angry at this moment.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl took a deep breath to calm down and said to the blue-haired little girl: "Congrattion, Miss Meng~! You have reached this point in only a short amount of time. It seems the evolution to the True Spirit Beast is already right in front of your eyes."
The blue-haired little girl shook her head and replied: "There is no need to rush for that. I am still too young, so I want to y around for a few more years. If I am ready to be an adult, I will naturally take that chance."
The beautiful purple-eyed girl''s pink lips twitched violently again.
Every beast dreamed to have a chance to evolve into the True Spirit Beast, but this blue-haired little girl talked as if she was not prepared to evolve to that stage yet.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl smiled with irony while saying with a respectful tone mixed with anger: "For Miss Meng, the chance to evolve into the True Spirit Beast might be insignificant. But for us, that chance is our dream!"
"Therefore, I will use this chance to proof that I am more worthy of that chance rather than you, Miss Meng!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl uttered with an extremely solemn expression.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The terrifying three-colored lightning raged once again around the beautiful purple-eyed girl!
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] sensed an extreme danger, but it was already toote for her to get away from there.
''I am really done for this time...'' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind.
Just when the terrifying three-colored lightning almost struck Tang Li Xue, the blue-haired little girl waved her hand, and Tang Li Xue suddenly appeared in her embrace.
"You just stay with me~! Just like I had said before, as long as you are with me, no one in this entire treasure ind can hurt you~!" The blue-haired little girl muttered in a yful tone as she cuddled Tang Li Xue like a plush toy.
"Come here, [Lightning of Wrath]~!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl shouted out loud to call the three-colored lightning Kirin who was still fighting fiercely against the Flood Dragon.
The three-colored lightning Kirin shed toward the beautiful purple-eyed girl and merged with her in an instant!
[Perfect Infusion Mode]!
CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
The three-colored lightning shrouded her body and solidified into a set of rainbow armor!
With a pair of lightning wings on her back and holding a bolt of three-colored lightning like a spear, the beautiful purple-eyed girl looked perfectly like a Valkyrie incarnation.
The blue-haired little girl pped her hands while praising with a casual smile on her immature face: "Wow, not bad, sister~! You look much cooler and beautiful in that form~!"
The beautiful purple-eyed girl swung the bolt of three-colored lightning in her grasp toward the blue-haired little girl like a whip!
CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~! BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
But the huge flood dragon suddenly appeared and blocked the three-colored lightning whip with its body!
ROOOOOOOOAAAAARRRR~!
The huge flood dragon roared out loud in anger and pain when the three-colored lightning whip left a long deep wound on its body.
Then the huge flood dragon opened its mouth and spurted out the [High-Pressure Water Cannon Breath] toward the beautiful purple-eyed girl!
The beautiful purple-eyed girl shouted with an impatient tone: "Go away~! Don''t disturb my battle with her~!"
The beautiful purple-eyed girl struck out her palm and a huge ray of three-colored lightning shot out from her palm!
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The [High-Pressure Water Cannon Breath] shed head-on against the huge ray of three-colored lightning!
Both of them were equally powerful, but the lightning elemental was inherently strong against the water elemental.
Moreover, the three-colored lightning was not the ordinary lightning elemental at all!
It was one of the 7 Earthly Desire Spirits, so it was surely many times more powerful than any lightning!
The [High-Pressure Water Cannon Breath] was defeated and evaporated under the huge ray of three-colored lightning!
The huge ray of three-colored lightning even hit the huge flood dragon and burned it into nothingness!
But when the huge ray of three-colored lightning almost struck the blue-haired little girl and Tang Li Xue who stood behind the flood dragon, that huge ray of three-colored lightning curved strangely all of a sudden and passed on their left side without even touching them.
Tang Li Xue shuddered in fright just from the terrifying pressure emitted from the three-colored lightning ray.
"Uwaaahh~! That is quite dangerous... uhh, I mean... for you~!" The blue-haired little girl eximed while patting Tang Li Xue''s furry head.
Because the blue-haired little girl could never be killed or injured as long as her [Regalia of Reality] domain was still there.
This battle was actually not really fair since the blue-haired little girl''s [Regalia of Reality] domain was too overpowered.
Of course, the beautiful purple-eyed girl did not really care about that right now.
Since the blue-haired little girl would never let her get away so easily, then the beautiful purple-eyed girl decided to just fight seriously to measure how far the strength difference between herself and the blue-haired little girl right now!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue already cursed the beautiful purple-eyed girl many times in her mind: ''Damn you, hypocrite vixen~! You always acted as if you want to save me before, and suddenly you want to kill me with this girl right now?! At least, warn me first before you do that like before!''
''Err... But, well... If she really warned me about it, then this little girl will certainly know with her mind-reading ability... Sigh... forget it~!'' Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation.
Chapter 568: Rampaged Beauty!
Chapter 568: Rampaged Beauty!
The beautiful purple-eyed girl transformed into three-colored lighting and instantly appeared above the blue-haired little girl and Tang Li Xue.
The blue-haired little girl smiled casually and asked: "Sister, what kind of exciting games do you want to show me next?"
The beautiful purple-eyed girl stared at the blue-haired little girl with a cold expression, then she throw the three-colored lightning bolt in her grasp to the sky.
With the help of her [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain], the beautiful purple-eyed girl cast another devastating powerful skill!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The lightning storm in the skies was rumbling and cracking even more violently than before!
"Come, [Thunder God''s Incarnation]~! Please help me to destroy this heresy in front of me~!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl muttered as if she really prayed to God in the skies.
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The huge pir of three-colored lightning suddenly struck down, but surprisingly, the target was not the blue-haired little girl!
Yes, the extremely destructive three-colored lightning actually struck the beautiful purple-eyed girl herself!
''Eh, what?! Why did she do that? Suicide? No way, right?'' Tang Li Xue curiously thought in her mind.
The blue-haired little girl chuckled in amusement when she heard Tang Li Xue''s thoughts and exined to Tang Li Xue: "This is a kind of summoning skill. Then she used whatever she summoned to fuse with herself to amplify her strength by many times. It may be powerful but it is also a very dangerous skill since she could be attacked by unbearable bacsh at any time."
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in understanding and thought: ''I see... In short, it should be like my [War Goddess Mode], right?''
The blue-haired little girl giggled and even gave Tang Li Xue generous advice: "Oh, you also have simr skills? But you better not use it too often or even depend too much on it. That kind of skill should be ssified as a forbidden skill since it borrows strength that does not really belong to yours."
"That kind of skill put too much burden on your beast core. If you are using it too often without any restraint, your beast core will crack or even shatter someday. Without vitality energy from your beast core, you will not be able to use all of your divine abilities anymore. You... should know what it means, right?" The blue-haired little girl advised Tang Li Xue while enjoyingly patting Tang Li Xue''s head.
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body shuddered in horror when she heard the blue-haired little girl''s words.
Yes, without beast core, it means she would be a cripple without any vitality energy.
Even though she would not bepletely powerless since she could still use her mental energy in her Sea of Consciousness and spiritual energy in her Dantian to wield her martial arts, but her strength would certainly decrease a lot.
"Re... Really? You are not joking with me, aren''t you?" For the first time, Tang Li Xue spoke to the blue-haired little girl.
The blue-haired little girl smiled as usual and replied with a casual tone: "What do you think?"
Tang Li Xue immediately remembered that the blue-haired little girl mentioned that she really hates liars and fakes the most before, so she should never tell any lies.
Besides that, the blue-haired little girl would not get any merit from telling any lies to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva and decided to never use her [War Goddess Mode] too often in the future.
When Tang Li Xue wanted to ask more questions about it to the blue-haired little girl, the beautiful purple-eyed girl already finished her fusion process!
Just like what the blue-haired little girl had already exined, the beautiful purple-eyed girl actually used her own [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain] to condense a mighty entity to fuse with herself.
So basically, the beautiful purple-eyed girl fused with her own [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain] and drew power from it right now.
To be more simple, this skill was almost identical to Tang Li Xue''s [Merge] skill with her perfect copy, but of course, it was much more advanced than [Merge] since she need to have perfect control over her own [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain] in order to use it.
The terrifying three-colored lightning power of the beautiful purple-eyed girl was surging more and more violently as her strength was soaring rapidly without any sign of stopping at all.
However, her current state not only put a much heavier burden on her beast core but she was even showing a sign of losing her mind.
"GGRRR~! GRRRRROOOOAAAAARR~!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl growled and roared out loud like a wild beast.
Her entire eyes were shining with azure light as terrifying lightning was sparking out from her eyes from time to time.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl raised both of her hands to the sky and clenched them together, then she swung her clenched hands down heavily as if she was swinging down an axe!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
An enormous three-colored lightning solidified into an axe and chopped down toward the blue-haired little girl!
"Interesting~! Then let''s y defending game~! Shield,e~!" The blue-haired little girlughed in amusement as she created a huge thick golden shield out of nothing.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The enormous three-colored lightning axe shed head-on violently with the thick golden shield!
The terrifying shockwave created by the impact between them was very dangerous to Tang Li Xue.
Her [Extrasensory Perception] was screaming to warn her of the iing extreme danger, but there was nothing Tang Li Xue could do since she was currently at the center of their battle.
d¦Ásvel
Thankfully, the blue-haired little girl protected Tang Li Xue again as a transparent barrier instantly appeared to protect the blue-haired little girl and Tang Li Xue from the terrifying shockwave.
"RAAAAAAAARRR~! ROOOOAARRR~!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl roared angrily as she swung her clenched hands again and again violently.
The enormous three-colored lightning axe bounced off after it shed against the thick golden shield, but it was chopping down toward the thick golden shield again.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The enormous three-colored lightning axe was chopping down again and again mercilessly to the thick golden shield!
The blue-haired little girl yawned as if she looked bored, then she muttered: "This is boring. Let''s change the game~!"
The blue-haired little girl tapped her slender finger on her smooth chin and pondered for a few moments.
Then her eyes brightened as she spoke in an excited tone: "That previous demon-sealing pagoda looks fun~! Let''s y that~! Hehehehe... But this time, I will be the sealer!"
The blue-haired little girl pped her hands with an excited smile on her immature face.
"[Demon Sealing Pagoda]... Err, version of my creation~! Go, seal her for me~!" The blue-haired little girl imitated the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s words and gestures when she used the [Demon Sealing Lightning Pagoda].
A tall seven-floor zed pagoda instantly created by the blue-haired little girl trapped the beautiful purple-eyed girl inside it.
"GRRRRAAAAAAARRRRRHHH~!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl roared as she punched the pagoda wall rapidly in anger until the pagoda shook violently.
The blue-haired little girl frowned a bit. She thought for a while while muttering: "Hmmm... It seems something is stillcking... Oh, right~! The binding chains~!"
CLACK~!
With a snap of her finger, the blue-haired little girl created many rainbow metallic chains that bound the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s body.
Tang Li Xue waspletely dumbfounded right now as she stared at the blue-haired little girl in disbelief.
''What the hell is this girl?! I know that she is ridiculously strong. But how could she create anything so easily just like that?! And everything she created is extremely powerful! It makes my [Energy Maniption] divine ability looks so pitiful and useless!'' Tang Li Xue thought in amazement.
The blue-haired little girl turned around and stared at Tang Li Xue with eyes filled with interest as she said: "Oh? Do you also have a creation-type divine ability? Having so many types of divine abilities is good. But you better choose one carefully as the core of your abilities soon, so you will not be confused by having so many divine abilities."
"Co... Core of abilities?" Tang Li Xue murmured in confusion.
"Hmmm... Strange. Your teacher has not taught you about that? Oh, I get it~! You are also a cking-off type like me, right? Hehehe... So, we are the same type of fox~!" The blue-haired little girlughed while caressing Tang Li Xue''s furry body more excitedly.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Tang Li Xue wanted to exin that she entered Myriad Foxes Academy only for a year, so she might not study that far yet.
''Oh, well... Forget it~! As long as you are happy...'' Tang Li Xue did not bother to exin it anymore when she saw the blue-haired little girl be even fonder of her and started to bber about the core divine ability.
"Any beast can have as many divine abilities or skills as they want. But we must not get confused by them. Because it needs a lot of time for us to master one of them. If we have so many divine abilities, it would be impossible for us to master all of them, right? It would be too time-consuming to do so~!"
"Moreover, we would definitely not be able to use all of them in battle. So, the correct way is determining one divine ability as our core, while the other divine abilities would only be auxiliary."
"For example, I have so many divine abilities, but I only use all of them to assist my creation ability. My core ability is still my reality creation. Do you understand?" The blue-haired little girl finished her lecture.
She waved her hand to create a ss filled with cold fruit juice and drank it to quench her thirst.
Tang Li Xue stared at the blue-haired little girl enviously.
''What the hell?! This skill is so amazing~! I really want it so badly! I wonder if I can copy it with my [Mirror of the Moon]?!'' Tang Li Xue thought.
The blue-haired little girl noticed Tang Li Xue''s thought. She created another ss filled with cold fruit juice and asked: "Do you want it too?"
"I want it~! Gimme~!" Tang Li Xue quickly took the ss filled with cold fruit juice with her paws and drank it with a joyful expression.
Chapter 569: Crazy Melee Battle!
Chapter 569: Crazy Melee Battle!
Tang Li Xue secretly tried to copy the blue-haired little girl''s creation ability with her [Mirror of the Moon] when the blue-haired little girl created a ss of cold fruit juice for her.
*Ding!
[Mirror of the Moon] activated!
[Copy Start]...
[Copy Failed]!
[Reason: User needs a matching bloodline to copy the specific Regalia.]
''Eh, it failed?! I need a matching bloodline to copy Regalia~?! Sigh, what a pity~!'' Tang Li Xue thought in regret.
When Tang Li Xue raised her head again, her topaz blue eyes met with the blue-haired little girl''s smiling face that currently staring at her intensely.
Tang Li Xue felt embarrassed again as she suddenly remembered that the blue-haired little girl could read her mind and intention very clearly.
"So, you just tried to copy my reality creation ability, and it failed? Aiihh~! It is truly a pity that you need a matching bloodline to do it~! If not, we might be able to y something even more interesting together~! Hehehehe..." The blue-haired little girl did not get angry, but she encouraged Tang Li Xue happily instead.
Tang Li Xue''s furry body shuddered in horror.
If it kept going like this, all of her secrets would certainly get exposed sooner orter by this blue-haired little girl!
Her previous life as a human, her System, Little Loki''s true race, and so on... No one else should be allowed to know about these things!
For someone like Tang Li Xue, who has a lot of unspeakable secrets, the mind-reading ability of this blue-haired little girl was her true nightmare!
Tang Li Xue drank the delicious cold fruit juice again to calm down herself.
She tried her very best to empty her mind and never think anything about her secrets.
Even though this blue-haired little girl was very friendly to her, Tang Li Xue still decided to secretly look for a chance to get away from her.
Just when the blue-haired little girl wanted to strike up another conversation with Tang Li Xue to relieve her boredom...
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The [Demon Sealing Pagoda] shook greatly, and it was covered in countless cracks in an instant!
The blue-haired little girl frowned deeply as she muttered with a worried tone: "This is not looking good..."
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise since this was the first time the blue-haired little girl''s changed her casual smiling expression to a worried expression, so she asked curiously: "Not looking good? Why?"
"Yes, that is right~! Uh... I mean it is not looking good for her, not for me..." The blue-haired little girl corrected her words.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
''You must be kidding me, right? Why the hell do you still have time to get worried about your enemy in battle?! Is this the privilege of the strongest or the arrogance of the strongest?!'' Tang Li Xuemented with dissatisfaction in her heart.
The blue-haired little girl smiled helplessly at Tang Li Xue after she heard Tang Li Xue''s inner thoughts and started to exin: "That electric sister has gone too far in using her fusion ability. At this rate, she will really lose control of herself and be destroyed by her own power in the end."
"It does not matter if she destroys her beast core or destroys herself in this Festival, but if she went deeper from her current state, she might really lose her mind even after she got eliminated from this Festival." The blue-haired little girl concluded her exnation.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The [Demon Sealing Pagoda] shattered to pieces under the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s full-powered strike!
Tang Li Xue gasped in shock as she muttered: "So, it means she will really be crazy even after she got sent back to her original ce?!"
The blue-haired little girl nodded her head and uttered in a leisurely tone: "It looks like I should be a bit more serious from now on to wake her up~!"
d¦Ásvel
Tang Li Xue observed the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s current crazy state carefully.
Not only the pressure she emitted had magnified several times, but her azure lightning-sparked eyes had also be dark purple lightning-sparked eyes right now.
Her long silky smooth ck hair had changed to spiky blinding purple long hair like dense streaks of purple lightning.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
The three-colored lightning shrouded the beautiful purple-eyed girl had became even more manic and terrifying than before.
''Damn~! Even though she is in a crazy state, but she looks extremely cool~! Tsk, tsk tsk... This form is even cooler than super sa... cough, cough... Uh, forget it...'' Tang Li Xue eximed in admiration.
"GRRRRRRRRR~! GRRRROOOOOAAAARRR~!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl growled and roared like a wild beast as she shed toward the blue-haired little girl with the speed surpassing even the usual lightning speed.
The blue-haired little girl opened her hands as if she was waiting for the beautiful purple-eyed girl toe toward her!
Then she suddenly clenched her hands, and both of her hands were covered by a pair of thick gloves.
BBBAAAAAAAANNNGGG~!
The beautiful purple-eyed girl suddenly appeared in front of the blue-haired little girl, but before she could do anything, she was actually punched heavily by the blue-haired little girl until her head was thrown back!
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in disbelief.
''What the heck is this?! I thought you are a long-range attacker type~! Why the hell is your melee fighting ability so good too?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in her heart.
"Just give up and wake up, sister~! With these rubber gloves, your lightning could not hurt me~!" The blue-haired little girl stated a fact that everyone already knew, but somehow Tang Li Xue felt that she was mocking the beautiful purple-eyed girl instead with those words.
"GRRRRRRRRR~! GRRRRAAAARRR~!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl became even angrier and let out a deafening roar as she swung her ws toward the blue-haired little girl.
Both of her ws were already imbued by even more terrifying three-colored lightning than the previous bolt of three-colored lightning!
But the blue-haired little girl''s figure suddenly moved to the right and left lithely as sheunched a barrage of quick jabs at the purple-eyed girl before terrifying lightning ws could touch the blue-haired little girl!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Then the blue-haired little girl ended her relentlessbo with a clean powerful uppercut on the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s chin!
BAAAAAAAAAANNNG~! PPPUUUUUUUUFFF~!
The beautiful purple-eyed girl was thrown off tens of meters back andy on the ground for a few moments.
The rainbow armor on the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s body was shattered to pieces under the blue-haired little girl''s barrage attacks, and even the three-colored lightning that shrouded her body had dispersed!
The beautiful purple-eyed girl slowly tried to get up but slipped and fell down again.
So, she shook her head to clear her dizziness while sitting on the ground for some time.
Tang Li Xue was stillpletely dumbfounded.
She did not really understand what just had happened, but the current beautiful purple-eyed girl really looked much more sober than before.
"The rubber gloves I created have the soul-shocking effect. So, each of my strikes will wake her up bit by bit." The blue-haired little girl kindly exined to the confused Tang Li Xue.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood, then she uttered with an unwilling tone: "Cough, Cough... Huff~! So, even in the [Perfect Infusion Mode], I still did not stand a chance against you..."
The beautiful purple-eyed girl gnashed her teeth as she spoke with a hoarse voice: "No, I still have one higher stage in [Perfect Infusion Mode] with that, I might still have a chance to..."
The blue-haired little girl quickly interrupted the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s words before she could finish speaking: "Sister, that is already enough, right? Do you need to go that far just to defeat me? Do you really not afraid that you will not be able to get back even after you win against me? Is it worth it?"
"IT IS WORTH IT~! Cough... At least for me, it is really worth it! So, please... Fight me to the end!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl replied with a firm tone.
"But you might¡" The blue-haired little girl muttered in hesitation.
"I want to know your true limit, so I can gauge how far the distance between me and you is! You should want to know where your true limit is too, right?" The beautiful purple-eyed girl said with a pleading tone.
The blue-haired little girl closed her eyes and sighed, then she opened her eyes again and nodded to the beautiful purple-eyed girl.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl smiled sweetly in relief and said: "Thank you for fulfilling my wish~! I will start so be prepared~!"
The blue-haired little girl stared at Tang Li Xue and kindly warned her with an immature voice: "Come here closer to me~! The next fight will be even more dangerous, so you must never step too far from me, okay?"
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in understanding and obediently stepped closer to the blue-haired little girl.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
The three-colored lightning Kirin appeared once again and merged with the beautiful purple-eyed girl.
[Perfect Infusion Mode]!
The three-colored lightning shrouded her body and solidified into a set of rainbow armor!
A pair of three-colored lightning wings was formed on her back, and she was also holding a bolt of three-colored lightning like a spear.
"Come, [Thunder God''s Incarnation]~!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl bellowed to the skies.
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
By using her connection with [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain], a huge pir of three-colored lightning was suddenly striking down toward the beautiful purple-eyed girl!
She instantly entered the second phase of her transformation like before with spiky blinding purple long hair and dark purple sparked eyes.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl''s consciousness quickly faded away, and she almost went back to bing a mindless beast like before.
But she bit her tongue to maintain herst straw of consciousness.
"This is still far from enough~! Continue~!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl murmured as she stabbed the terrifying bolt of three-colored lightning into her body!
Chapter 570: Critical Decisive Point!
Chapter 570: Critical Decisive Point!
The skies above became even darker in an instant as the three-colored lightning was rumbling louder.
The beautiful girl''s dark purple lightning-sparked eyes turned into bright vermilion lightning-sparked eyes.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
The surrounding air and space began to tremble violently and got distorted because the terrifying lightning power of the beautiful purple-eyed girl had been amplified by many times at that moment!
The beautiful purple-eyed girl''s figure hadpletely transformed into three-colored lightning in human form.
Even Tang Li Xue who was under the protection of the blue-haired little girl felt suffocated by the dreadful oppressing aura radiating from the beautiful purple-eyed girl.
"You can also turn off your human transfiguration and fight me with your full power in fox form." The blue-haired little girl kindly reminded the beautiful purple-eyed girl with her usual casual tone.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched when she heard the blue-haired little girl''s words and could not help to ask in a curious manner: "Err, that lightning girl had already be so much stronger now. If she turned off her human transfiguration, her overall strength would increase by three times again. Are you sure you can cope with her?"
The blue-haired little girl patted Tang Li Xue''s furry head gently and smiled confidently, then muttered: "Either way, she would still stand no chance against me. But I might have to be a bit more serious if she turned off her human transfiguration."
Tang Li Xue became even more curious and asked again: "If she turned off her human transfiguration and fight against you in her full power, how much strength percentage do you need to use to defeat her?"
The blue-haired little girl mischievously tapped Tang Li Xue''s furry head and replied with a teasing tone: "You are really a curious baby, aren''t you? Despite always thinking about how to run away from me, why did you suddenly be so curious about my strength?"
Tang Li Xue had suddenly be tongue-tied.
The blue-haired little girlughed amusedly at Tang Li Xue''s stunned expression.
The blue-haired little girl caressed Tang Li Xue''s furry figure softly while muttering with absolute confidence: "You don''t need to worry or think too much about it~! Under the True Spirit Beast, I ampletely invincible."
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
"GRRROOOAAAAARR~!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl roared out loud toward the skies after she finished her final transformation.
"Opps~! Unfortunately, she is still in her human transfiguration form. It seems she had already lost her mind much earlier." The blue-haired little girl shook her head in disappointment.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl shed right in front of the blue-haired little girl in an instant and threw a heavy lightning punch toward her face!
BOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The blue-haired little girl''s head exploded into blood mist under the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s terrifying lightning fist!
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in disbelief and thought: ''Damn it~! She got killed just like that after bragging with something cool like ''I ampletely invincible under the True Spirit Beast''?! At least give some exciting fight first~!''
Then the surrounding time seemed to be turned back!
The beautiful purple-eyed girl pulled her lightning punch and shed backward, while the blue-haired little girlpletely recovered back to normal.
The blue-haired little girl''s expression blushed slightly in embarrassment and said: "Kuuuhhh~! So embarrassing ~! Err, I am sorry~! That is my mistake~! Hehehe... Let''s restart it again~!"
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Even though the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s transformed form looked crazy and monstrous, but Tang Li Xue was not sure anymore who was the real monster between these two.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl shed toward the blue-haired little girl and threw another heavy lightning punch toward her, but this time, the blue-haired little girl had already prepared!
[Sticky Rubber Wall]~!
BOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The beautiful purple-eyed girl''s heavy lightning punch only struck the [Sticky Rubber Wall] created by the blue-haired little girl!
It could easily be seen that this [Sticky Rubber Wall] was a much better instor than even the highest quality rubber since the three-colored lightning could not even do anything against it.
"Wrap~! Wrap~! Wrap on you~! Into a big rubber dumbling~!" The blue-haired little girl hummed as she made kneading motions with both of her hands.
The surrounding ground instantly turned into the same material as the [Sticky Rubber Wall] and swallowed the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s entire body!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
By using her connection with the [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain] in the skies, the beautiful purple-eyed girl summoned a violent lightning storm to strike the [Sticky Rubber Ground], but that waspletely futile since the [Sticky Rubber Ground] waspletely immune to any lightning.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl immediately realized it and quickly changed her strategy.
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The beautiful purple-eyed girl suddenly ignited a great explosion using her three-colored lightning!
The great explosion spread around destroying everything in the surrounding area!
But before it could touch the blue-haired little girl...
CLACK~!
The blue-haired little girl snapped her fingers and the great explosion instantly turned into a huge dome of ice!
The beautiful purple-eyed girl was actually trapped inside the huge dome of ice.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
As the loud rumbling of lightning echoed from inside the huge ice dome, countless cracks started to spread on the entire huge ice dome!
BBBBBAAAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!
The beautiful purple-eyed girl sessfully got out of the huge ice dome by easily destroying it from the inside!
However, the blue-haired little girl had already prepared another surprise for her!
"Go~! Bind her [Sticky Rubber Ropes]~!" The blue-haired little girl shouted as countless ropes made from the previous sticky rubber entangled the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s body!
But the beautiful purple-eyed girl easily cut all of the sticky rubber ropes in one sh with the three-colored lightning sword in her grasp!
Tang Li Xue could see that the three-colored lightning sword should be extremely dangerous since the surrounding space was cracking when the beautiful purple-eyed girl shed using it.
Although, the space crack was restored back to normal after one or two seconds, but the blue-haired little girl''s sticky rubber strategy would surely no longer work with that three-colored lightning sword.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl shed toward the blue-haired little girl and shed her three-colored lightning sword toward the blue-haired little girl''s head!
"Oh? So, you want to y around with a sword? Okay, I am in~!" The blue-haired little girl giggled and raised her right hand.
A cool-looking golden sword instantly appeared in her right hand!
CLAAAAAANNGG~!
"Come here~! My legendary undefeated lightning-ying sharpest and unbreakable sword~!" The blue-haired little girl muttered a very long sword name while the cool-looking golden sword in her grasp easily blocked the three-colored lightning sword''s attack.
Not only that, the cool-looking golden sword began to drain the three-colored lightning sword''s power the moment they touched!
"GGRRRROOOOOAAAAARRRR~!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl roared angrily, but different from before, she did not blindly attack the blue-haired little girl.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl shed to the sides or rear of the blue-haired little girl before shing her three-colored lightning sword rapidly to look for the blue-haired little girl''s weak spot.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl''s movement speed and attack speed had surpassed the normal lightning speed by several times!
Even Tang Li Xue could no longer see any of her movements anymore since the beautiful purple-eyed girl had already moved many times faster than even when she was in [Lightning Form].
However the blue-haired little girl was even more amazing, she closed her eyes and danced around gracefully with the cool-looking golden sword in her grasp.
But despite that, the blue-haired little girl managed to perfectly block all of the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s lightning sword attacks!
Each time the cool-looking golden sword shed with the three-colored lightning sword, it would drain her power bit by bit.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl could feel her energy decreasing faster when she attacked the blue-haired little girl more rapidly.
Even though she had temporarily lost her mind right now, but her battle instinct could sense that she would bepletely exhausted if it continued like this.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl shed backward to keep her distance from the blue-haired little girl.
The blue-haired little girl puckered her pink lips in dissatisfaction as sheined: "Why do you stop~?! I have not yed enough~! Come on~! Let''s y sword again~!"
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently.
Although she could not see any of their movement clearly, but she knew that both of them did not have any knowledge about sword at all.
They basically only waved and shed their swords around to chop or block without using any sword technique or skill.
But relying on their lightning speed and terrifying power, even the previous Heavenly Sword Immortal in the Inheritance Ground Tablet might not be able to win against any of these two monsters in a sword fight.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
The three-colored lightning that shrouded the beautiful purple-eyed girl was getting thicker and thicker as if she was umting something!
"Sigh... So, she wants to end this battle in one most powerful attack. Ah~! So disappointing ~! I still want to y around for much longer~!" The blue-haired little girl stomped her feet and grumbled in disappointment.
d¦Ásvel
Yes, the beautiful purple-eyed girl decided to determine this battle with their most powerful attack rather than letting the blue-haired little girl chip her power and energy bit by bit using her golden sword!
The three-colored lightning from her [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain] in the skies kept striking down at the beautiful purple-eyed girl making her umtion reach a devastating level.
The blue-haired little girl sighed as she raised the cool-looking golden sword above her head and grasped it with both of her hands.
The brilliant majestic golden light was emitted by the cool-looking golden sword in the blue-haired little girl''s hands.
As time passed, the brilliant majestic golden light became more and more intense.
Tang Li Xue even thought that the blue-haired little girl might shout something like EXCAL... Cough, forget it... In short, their battle had already reached a critical decisive point, and Tang Li Xue concluded that her chance to run away mighte soon.
Chapter 571: Tang Li Xue Make Her Move!
Chapter 571: Tang Li Xue Make Her Move!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
The ck clouds spread wider around as the afternoon skies turnedpletely dark like night skies.
The terrifying three-colored lightning would sh blindingly from time to time, illuminating the entire evening skies covered with dark ck clouds.
The deafening sound of thunder in the skies reverberated on the entire area as the beautiful purple-eyed girl used her entire body to umte three-colored lightning more and more.
Meanwhile, the dashing golden sword in the blue-haired little girl''s grasp let out more and more dazzling majestic golden light.
The crushing tyrannical aura emitted from the dashing golden sword had grown to an unimaginable level.
Even the surrounding space was trembling and distorting violently as if it could no longer withstand the oppressive destruction power from the dashing golden sword.
Tang Li Xue''s heart was beating faster and faster when she watched the silent battle between the beautiful purple-eyed girl and the blue-haired little girl.
Yes... Although both the beautiful purple-eyed girl and the blue-haired little girl did not move, but both of them were currentlypeting over who could umte andpress more power.
The next moment they move, the final oue of this duel would certainly be decided in one most powerful decisive move!
After five minutes or so, the beautiful purple-eyed girl was the first one who could not hold on anymore.
"GGROOOOOAAAAAAARRR~!" The beautiful purple-eyed girl let out an earthshaking loud roar as she brought her hands together and the terrifying amount ofpressed three-colored lightning began to concentrate in the space between her hands.
CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
The three colors of lightning started to blend into one as the beautiful purple-eyed girl forcefully concentrate them in one single point, and it became apletely dark sphere!
The dark sphere exuded extremely violent ck lightning that tore the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s palms and sucked the surrounding three-colored lightning.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl knew she could no longer control this extremely destructive dark sphere, so she pushed it toward the blue-haired little girl instead!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The extremely destructive dark sphere was flying toward the blue-haired little girl faster than even lightning speed while destroying everything in its path to nothingness!
The blue-haired little girl smiled while muttering with her usual casual tone: "Not bad, sister~! Unfortunately, it is still far from enough to defeat me~! But do not worry, I will not eliminate you yet~! After all, I still want to have fun and y with you until the end of this Festival~!"
The blue-haired little girl finally swung down the dashing golden sword in her grasp!
In that instant, the dashing golden sword was shooting out a dazzling majestic golden light to face the extremely destructive dark sphere!
Right at this moment, Tang Li Xue suddenly made her move!
Tang Li Xue urged Yaya who was still hiding in her system''s pet space to enter [Divine Possession] mode with her!
*Ding!
[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]
[Wind Guardian Blessing] activated! (Increase overall speed by 50%)
[Wings of Freedom] buff activated!
Tang Li Xue even used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step] simultaneously to increase her speed by several more times!
"What are you..." The blue-haired little girl was extremely surprised by Tang Li Xue''s suicidal move when she used her power to stop Tang Li Xue...
[Shadow sh]!
Tang Li Xue instantly teleported to the point where the dazzling majestic golden light and the extremely destructive dark sphere would meet!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The dazzling majestic golden light shed head-on against the extremely destructive dark sphere creating an overwhelming explosion!
Did Tang Li Xue really intend to kill herself?
Of course not!
Right before that happen, Tang Li Xue had activated herst life-saving trump card at thest moment!
[Sun And Moon Protection]! (Became invulnerable for 1,5 seconds)
By taking advantage of the overwhelming explosion, Tang Li Xue used it to propel herself at an unmatchable speed to run away from the blue-haired little girl!
However, Tang Li Xue miscalcted it a bit...
The dazzling majestic golden light from the blue-haired little girl was actually much stronger than the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s destructive dark sphere, so her furry body was propelling forward toward the beautiful purple-eyed girl instead!
Tang Li Xue''s heart skipped a beat because of this miscalction.
BBBAAAAAAAAANNNGG~!
She crashed hard into something soft, but her unimaginable flying speed did not decrease at all.
Tang Li Xue observed the soft thing she crashed into and muttered in shock: "This is... that lightning girl?"
Fortunately, the beautiful purple-eyed girl had already run out of energy and fell unconscious. If not, Tang Li Xue might have already been electrocuted to death by this rampaged beautiful purple-eyed girl right now.
Tang Li Xue pondered for a while whether to throw away this unconscious lightning girl or just bring this unconscious lightning girl with her...
"Uhhh... All right, might as well just bring her with me~! Anyway, she already ran out of juice right now. Making her be indebted to me might bring me some unexpected advantage in the future." Tang Li Xue muttered her decision.
In only a few seconds, Tang Li Xue had already flown more than a hundred miles away by propelling herself with the overwhelming explosion.
The blue-haired little girl stared at the running away Tang Li Xue without doing anything to chase or prevent her.
The blue-haired little girl chuckled in amusement instead while saying with a tone filled with curiosity: "Interesting~! Very, very interesting sister~! Hehehehe~! To think she can still survive under my [Glorious Radiant Light]... It seems that sister still has a lot of secrets~!"
Then the blue-haired little girl suddenly waved her hand and a golden radiant spear instantly created above her head.
"GO~!" The blue-haired little girl urged while pointing her slender finger in the direction of the running away Tang Li Xue.
nd¦Ásn¦Ïv¦Ål
BBWOOOOOSSH~!
The golden radiant spear was flying very fast as if it vanished in an instant!
It only took less than two seconds for the golden radiant spear to catch up against the incredibly fast Tang Li Xue!
PPPUUUUUFFF~!
The golden radiant spear stabbed right into Tang Li Xue''s chest!
Tang Li Xue waspletely dumbfounded in disbelief.
"What... is this? I... I am dead?! Just like this?" Tang Li Xue murmured in surprise.
But out of Tang Li Xue''s expectations, the golden radiant spear suddenly shone brighter and transformed into a golden mark on her chest.
Tang Li Xue hastily checked her furry body, but she did not find any wounds.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, then she took a nce in the direction of the blue-haired little girl.
Even though Tang Li Xue was already far away from the blue-haired little girl, but she could still see the blue-haired little girl''s cute figure clearly with Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes].
The blue-haired little girl actually winked mischievously at her and even gave her a teasing flying kiss.
Tang Li Xueughed in amusement at the blue-haired little girl''s yful manner.
This blue-haired little girl was actually not bad and quite funny. If she did not have that eerie mind-reading ability, Tang Li Xue did not mind being her friend and yed for a while with her.
After Tang Li Xue flew out from the blue-haired little girl''s beautiful aurora skies domain, she entered the crimson skies domain again.
However, the golden mark on Tang Li Xue''s chest immediately shone to protect her from the mind-control effect of the crimson skies domain.
"This golden symbol is amazing~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise and delight.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
With the protection power of this golden mark, she did not need to spend a lot of her energy and stamina to resist the mind-control effect of the crimson skies domain from now on.
After around another ten or fifteen minutes, the propelling effect from the great explosion had finally run out, and Tang Li Xue''s flying speed returned back to normal.
Tang Li Xue decided tond to take some rest to recover her nearly depleted energy and stamina.
She brought the unconscious beautiful purple-eyed girl to hide in the hole in the nearby huge tree with her.
Tang Li Xue canceled her [Divine Possession] with Yaya and let Yaya back to sleep in her system''s pet space.
Tang Li Xue also wanted to sleep so badly, but she did not dare to do it while this unconscious purple-eyed girl was so close to her, so she decided to just wait for this purple-eyed girl to wake up first.
Thankfully, the beautiful purple-eyed girl slowly regained consciousness after one hour, if not, Tang Li Xue might already identally fall asleep first.
"I... still alive? This is... where..." The beautiful purple-eyed girl muttered weakly while still in a semi-conscious state.
"Yes, you are still alive. And I am the one who saved you at thest moment~! So, you should be grateful to me~!" Tang Li Xue proudly patted her furry chest while bragging to the beautiful purple-eyed girl.
"I see... Cough, cough... Thank you very much... I owe you one. But I might still not survive in the end... The violent bacsh has already started to break my body." The beautiful purple-eyed girl gratefully thanked Tang Li Xue while coughing out several mouthfuls of blood.
Tang Li Xue stared at the beautiful purple-eyed girl in surprise and said: "Violent bacsh? Ah, I get it! Wait a minute... I will try to make a few talismans to help you heal your wounds. Who knows if it could help you surviveter."
Tang Li Xue pulled several tree barks from the huge tree and started to use them to make [Talisman of Regeneration].
Chapter 572: Created a New Type of Talisman!
Chapter 572: Created a New Type of Talisman!
This time, Tang Li Xue''s sess rate in making [Talisman of Regeneration] had not only increased a lot, but she had even managed to sessfully make one [Talisman of Regeneration +3].
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate and immediately used the [Talisman of Regeneration +3] on the beautiful purple-eyed girl.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl''s expression had already be extremely pale, and she always gritted her teeth to withstand the great pain that assaulted her entire body.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue frowned deeply while muttering softly in frustration: "Just as I had already expected... It looks like even [Talisman of Regeneration +3] cannot cure the violent bacsh effect. It can only heal the wounds on your body and alleviate the bacsh symptoms a bit."
The beautiful purple-eyed girl opened her lips as if she wanted to say something to Tang Li Xue, but there was no sounding out of her mouth.
Arge amount of blood poured out from her mouth instead, and she passed out again.
Tang Li Xue became a bit panicked and quickly checked the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s condition.
If this beautiful purple-eyed girl died right now, all of the efforts she spent to bring this purple-eyed girl out of the blue-haired little girl''s hands would be in vain.
After examining the purple-eyed girl''s condition carefully for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue found out that this beautiful purple-eyed girl''s violent bacsh symptoms were more or less almost the same as her [War Goddess Mode]''s bacsh.
No, this purple-eyed girl''s violent bacsh was surely much more severe than Tang Li Xue''s [War Goddess Mode] bacsh, but she was much stronger than Tang Li Xue, so her resistance against the violent bacsh should also be much higher than Tang Li Xue.
"No matter how high her resistance against the violent bacsh, she would certainly get killed by it sooner orter at this rate. I must do something quickly to help her. But... how?" Tang Li Xue uttered while thinking deeply.
The only way for Tang Li Xue topletely cure her own [War Goddess Mode] bacsh was by using her [Quick Restore] divine ability.
([Quick Restore]: Restore the user''s condition back to normal in 12 seconds. Cooldown: 24 hours. Note: This divine ability can only be used on the user, not another target.)
But as anyone could see... Tang Li Xue could only use this [Quick Restore] divine ability on herself.
"Sigh... It seems there is really nothing I can do to help this girl." Tang Li Xue could only sigh in resignation.
However, a sh of inspiration suddenly shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
"Wait a minute... Previously, I could make [Talisman of Regeneration] by using my own blood as medium and my [High-Speed Regeneration] skill as the temte. What if I also use my [Quick Restore] divine ability as the temte to make a new type of talisman this time?!" Tang Li Xue murmured as her topaz blue eyes were glittering brighter like a pair of stars in excitement.
This was clearly only an absurd idea.
How could a mere healing skill like [High-Speed Regeneration] be ced on par with an overpowered divine ability such as [Quick Restore]?!
But Tang Li Xue did not really care about it, since she wanted to try to make a new type of talisman based on her [Quick Restore] so badly right now.
She enthusiastically activated her human transfiguration and transformed into her stunning naked human form.
After that, she took out the golden inscription pen from her system''s space.
nd¦Ásn¦Ïv¦Ål
By using her own blood as a medium, Tang Li Xue began to try to engrave the new type of talisman based on her [Quick Restore] onto the tree bark.
BOOOFFF~!!!
The tree bark exploded and shattered to pieces before she even engraved a tenth of it...
"Again~!" Tang Li Xue was not discouraged at all after her first attempt failed and took another tree bark.
BOOOFFF~!!! BOOOFFF~!!! BOOOFFF~!!! BOOOFFF~!!!
After more than ten times failed attempts in a row without any significant progress, Tang Li Xue stopped for a while and took a deep breath to calm herself down.
"I am getting too arrogant. This level of difficulty is too high for the current me. If I had already reached the level of Teacher Li Wei, I might had a chance to sessfully create it." Tang Li Xue said to herself while shaking her head in disappointment.
At this time, Tang Li Xue sensed the breath of the beautiful purple-eyed girl was getting weaker and weaker like a faint candle me on the verge of getting extinguished.
At this rate, the beautiful purple-eyed girl might really stop breathing and die sooner than Tang Li Xue had expected!
"Damn it~! Is there really no more way to save her?!" Tang Li Xue grumbled in frustration and dissatisfaction.
She did not really mind if this beautiful purple-eyed girl really died here right now since she did not really die and only got eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival.
But what if the same situation happened to Little Loki or Yaya in the future?!
Would she be as helpless as she was right now?
Could not do anything to save them and could only mourn for them?
No way~! Tang Li Xue would never ept that!
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone with a strong light of determination.
"Since I cannot make the new type of talisman based on [Quick Restore] with my current ability, then can I just make a lesser reduced version of it?!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a solemn tone.
She took another tree bark, and the golden inscription pen in her grasp started to move again.
BOOOFFF~!!! BOOOFFF~!!! BOOOFFF~!!!
After five failure attempts, Tang Li Xue summarized the reason for her failure carefully: "Sigh... This is really not a realistic idea. This lesser reduced prototype version of [Quick Restore] rune only makes it iplete and unstable."
"Iplete and unstable, huh... No, it should bepletely possible~! If only I could find a way to make it moreplete so it can be more stable..." Tang Li Xue muttered in annoyance.
But if she tried to make aplete [Quick Restore] rune without any reduction, then it means she went back to the starting point and would meet with the previous problem all over again...
Tang Li Xue pinched the bridge between her eyes and thought about the solution to her problem deeply.
When Tang Li Xue identally nced at a few [Talisman of Regeneration] that she had already made previously, she suddenly became dumbfounded as she said: "Eh, wait a minute... No way, right? The solution should not be that simple, right?"
Tang Li Xue quickly took another tree bark and began to inscribe on it using her golden inscription pen while muttering like a lunatic: "Since the lesser reduced prototype of the [Quick Restore] rune is iplete and unstable. What if Ibine it with another rune with a simr healing effect such as my [Talisman of Regeneration]..."
"By applying the principle of dual effect talisman like [Hidden Exploding Talisman] and [Stealth Illusion Talisman] to it... Then make the Regeneration Rune and the Quick Restore Runeplement against each other to solve the iplete and unstable problem."
Different from before, the tree bark talisman did not show any unstable reaction this time.
After Tang Li Xue lifted her golden inscription pen from the tree bark talisman, the tree bark talisman shone with rainbow light for a few moments before it turned back to normal.
*Ding!
[Congrattion! Host has sessfully created a new type of talisman!]
[Please Host give it a name soon!]
[Inscriptionist''s proficiency has greatly increased!]
[Inscriptionist''s proficiency has leveled up to level 1 (Novice)!]
"I... I really seed~?! Did I just seed?! Uwohohohoho~! I, Tang Li Xue, am the real genius Inscriptionist~!" Tang Li Xue put her hands on her smooth slender waist andughed crazily while still naked.
Tang Li Xue proudly took the new type of talisman she just made and lovingly caressed it.
"Let''s call it, [Talisman of Lesser Recovery]~! Someday, I will surely make the [Talisman of Great Recovery] based on myplete [Quick Restore] divine ability~!" Tang Li Xue spoke with a tone filled with confidence while satisfiedly staring at her [Talisman of Lesser Recovery].
*Ding!
[The newly created talisman has been sessfully named (Talisman of Lesser Recovery)!]
After Tang Li Xue woke up from her delighted state, the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s breath had already be extremely weak and almost stoppedpletely.
Tang Li Xue hastily threw the [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] in her grasp onto the purple-eyed girl. Tang Li Xue did not even have time to check the [Talisman of Lesser Recovery]''s effect with her basic [All Knowing Eyes] yet.
The [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] quickly activated and broke to pieces, but its recovery effect had already been triggered on the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s body.
Now, Tang Li Xue could only pray that she was not toote yet and that her [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] could really work to recover the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s violent bacsh effect.
After all, Tang Li Xue had never tried the effect of her [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] yet, so she did not know yet how good its recovery effect was.
Tang Li Xue carefully observed the condition of the beautiful purple-eyed girl for half an hour or so.
She waspletely relieved when she found out that the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s condition was slowly improving.
It made Tang Li Xue realize that her current [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] recovery effect was still too far away from her [Quick Restore] divine ability.
But at least, the current [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] already has a restoration effect on the violent bacsh, even though it was not as immediate as [Quick Restore].
Tang Li Xue began to make another [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] since its effect on the beautiful purple-eyed girl had already worn off.
Chapter 573: Heavens Favored Child!
Chapter 573: Heaven''s Favored Child!
Tang Li Xue''s beautiful face turned gloomy after more than ten times failed to make another [Talisman of Lesser Recovery].
"Ipletely underestimate the difficulty in making this [Talisman of Lesser Recovery]... The first one is a sess obviously because of luck." Tang Li Xue whispered in disappointment.
Tang Li Xue took a nce at the unconscious beautiful purple-eyed girl with a worried expression.
After the effect of [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] wore off, the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s condition slowly deteriorated again, and her breath was getting weaker.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath, then she began to put all of her concentration and focus on making the [Talisman of Lesser Recovery].
Under her relentless effort, Tang Li Xue finally sessfully made another [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] after failing so many times.
Tang Li Xue did not hastily use this newly made [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] on the beautiful purple-eyed girl like before.
She activated her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to examine the effect of her [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] first.
-----------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Lesser Recovery]
[Effect: Apply Lesser Restore buff on the target. (Heal 1% of maximum HP and greatly reduce the effect of any Damage over Time (DoT) debuff for 600 seconds.)]
-----------------------------------------------------
The healing effect was actually almost the same as [Talisman of Regeneration], but the duration was much longer, and it also had one more effect.
"Eh? Greatly reduce the effect of any Damage over Time debuff?" Tang Li Xue muttered in confusion.
Even though the new effect looked unimpressive, there was no doubt that it should be the one that temporarily alleviated the violent bacsh effect on the beautiful purple-eyed girl.
Tang Li Xue threw the [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] in her grasp onto the beautiful purple-eyed girl.
The [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] made from the tree bark was shattered to pieces like before, and its recovery effect on the beautiful purple-eyed girl started working.
Tang Li Xue did not intend to take a rest yet. She started to work hard again to make some more [Talisman of Lesser Recovery].
With her persistent effort, Tang Li Xue''s proficiency in making [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] was increasing bit by bit, and her chance had increased to one sess in ten tries after a few hours.
d¦Ásvel
In those few hours, she consumed eight [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] in total to stabilize the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s condition.
Tang Li Xue felt heartache every time she consumed the [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] she worked so hard to make on the beautiful purple-eyed girl.
Thankfully, the beautiful purple-eyed girl''s violent bacsh finallypletely vanished after that, and her condition did not worsen anymore.
Tang Li Xue canceled her human transfiguration and transformed back into her fox form, then she dly hung the rest [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] on her neck with a vine, so she could activate them anytime she needed them.
The beautiful purple-eyed girl''s long eyshes fluttered slightly as she slowly regained consciousness.
The drowsy Tang Li Xue immediately awoke when she sensed the beautiful purple-eyed girl moving slowly to sit beside her.
"I never thought you could still save me from [Perfect Infusion Mode]''s violent bacsh. Thank you very much~! Hahahaha~! It seems I owe you another one." The beautiful purple-eyed girl gratefully said to Tang Li Xue with a kind smile on her face.
Tang Li Xue also smiled back and replied: "Okay, so you owe me two big favors, right~?! Hehehehe..."
Tang Li Xue and the beautiful purple-eyed girl did a friendly side hug like long-lost friends.
"My name is Lei Qian''er. I am from the Central Continent, Tu Shan Fox Tribe. How about you?" The beautiful purple-eyed girl introduced herself to Tang Li Xue.
"Woah~! So, you are a big genius from the Central Continent?! No wonder you are so powerful~! My name is Tang Li Xue. I am from Lightwind Continent. I will call you Sister Qian''er from now on, okay?" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise and also introduced herself.
Lei Qian''er sighed when she heard Tang Li Xue''s praise and muttered in a depressed tone: "Big genius, huh... There are so many geniuses in the Central Continent. But what I truly want to achieve is not only to be a mere genius..."
Lei Qian''er muttered in a tone full of longing as she made a grasping motion toward the sky: "Someday in the future, I will definitely catch up to her... and be Heaven''s Favored Child too~!"
Tang Li Xue nced at Lei Qian''er and asked with a curious tone: "Heaven''s Favored Child? What is that?"
Lei Qian''er chuckled as she patiently exined to Tang Li Xue: "What is a genius? The definition of genius has always been vague. Can all creatures with much better talent than the others be called geniuses? But what if the others could also reach the same height as those geniuses by relying on resources? Can they be also called geniuses too?"
Tang Li Xue frowned and pondered for a while and spoke with hesitation: "That is... they should not be called geniuses, right?"
Lei Qian''er giggled and asked again: "Why not? Because they rely on resources? What if they have so much luck and can find precious resources in their every step? In history, there were not a few creatures who were sessful in reaching greater heights by relying on lucky opportunities, especially the Human Race."
Tang Li Xue instantly became dumbfounded by Lei Qian''er''s words.
''Damn~! Isn''t that the same as those protagonists in novels?! I thought those were only fiction~! So, those are actually real?!'' Tang Li Xue thought enviously.
If the other protagonists heard Tang Li Xue''s envious words, they would surely scold her: ''You already have System! Why the hell do you still covet our luck?!''
Lei Qian''er continued her exnation: "Among countless geniuses, there might be one exception. It possesses the best talent, great luck, abundant resources, high intelligence, and unmatchable strength. All focused on one single creature. We usually called it, Heaven''s Favored Child!"
"Possess the best talent, great luck, abundant resources, high intelligence, and unmatchable strength... Heaven''s Favored Child!" Tang Li Xue gasped in awe.
Then Tang Li Xue thought for a few moments and asked with an amazed expression: "Don''t tell me that previous little fox girl is..."
Lei Qian''er nodded before Tang Li Xue could finish her words and replied: "That is right! That little fox girl is Meng Yue. She is also from the Central Continent, but different from me, she is from the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe. She is... Heaven''s Favored Child of our Fox n!"
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock.
"Heaven''s Favored Child of Fox n... Meng Yue..." Tang Li Xue murmured again slowly as if she wanted to carve her name in her mind, so she would not forget itter.
"She is also the first-ce winner in the previous Foxes Hunting Festival. That is why I was surprised when you did not know her before. " Lei Qian''er added her exnation.
From that, Lei Qian''er also concluded that this should be the first time Tang Li Xue has participated in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head and admitted it.
"Her power is extremely unique. I know that her power should be called Regalia, but how could she create something out of nothing just like that?! Can you exin it clearly to me?" Tang Li Xue took this chance to ask Lei Qian''er.
Who knew if she could get more important information about Regalia from Lei Qian''er, right?
Currently, Tang Li Xue''s knowledge about Regalia was still very superficial.
Lei Qian''er sighed again and generously exined to Tang Li Xue: "Sigh... Her ability is called [Regalia of Reality]. Inside her [Regalia of Reality] domain, she basically could do anything. Not only can she create whatever she imagines in her mind, she can even revive herself, turn back time, and so on."
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently as she spoke in disbelief: "Doesn''t it mean she already be a God? She should be already invincible with that kind of God''s Power! Even Spirit Beast would not be able to kill her!"
Lei Qian''er shook her head and denied Tang Li Xue''s words: "She might be powerful, but she is far from invincible or being a God. She could only do all of those because of her [Regalia of Reality] domain, so once it shattered, she would lose all of her power, and she could be killed."
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in understanding and asked again curiously: "Since you already know that, why don''t you just destroy her [Regalia of Reality] domain before?"
Lei Qian''er rolled her transparent purple eyes and replied: "Do you think it can be done that easily? Even the powerful True Spirit Beast might need to use a few attacks to destroy her [Regalia of Reality] domain! With my current strength, do you think I have the power on par with the powerful True Spirit Beast?"
Tang Li Xue shook her head in reflex.
In Tang Li Xue''s opinion, Lei Qian''er was extremely powerful, and she might even be able to defeat the False Spirit Beast.
But unfortunately, the True Spirit Beast was on apletely different level than the False Spirit Beast...
"That is right. Sigh, my strength is too far weaker than hers. So, how could I even shake her [Regalia of Reality] domain with my little strength?" Lei Qian''er muttered with a depressed tone.
Tang Li Xue patted Lei Qian''er with her paw to cheer her up.
Lei Qian''er cheered up again and said to Tang Li Xue with a teasing tone: "Luckily for you, Meng Yue seems to be very fond of you, Sister Xue. She even gave you her vassal mark!"
"Va... Vassal mark? What is that?" Tang Li Xue asked with a puzzled tone.
Chapter 574: The Fifth Treasure Game!
Chapter 574: The Fifth Treasure Game!
"Your instructor or teacher should have already exined to you about the second phase of this Foxes Hunting Festival, right?" Lei Qian''er inquired to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue asked back with a puzzled tone: "Uhh, which one? About the apex predator foxes collecting 50% to 70% of the precious treasures from the other predator foxes?"
Lei Qian''er nodded and replied: "Yes, that is it. That vassal mark means you have already be Meng Yue''s vassal."
Tang Li Xue grimaced in annoyance while eximing: "I have be her vassal?! So, does that mean I must offer 50% to 70% of the precious treasures I get to her from now on?!"
Lei Qian''er rolled her beautiful purple eyes and began to worry about Tang Li Xue''s IQ while exining patiently: "Why do you must offer your precious treasures to her? Did she ever ask for you to do that? Never, right? It means you are already under her protection without any condition."
"Ah, I see~! I get it now~! Hehehe..." Tang Li Xue uttered while blushing in embarrassment.
Tang Li Xue always thought that the apex predator foxes were extorting precious treasures from the other foxes using coercion, but it seemed that was only her misunderstanding.
The predator foxes offered precious treasures to apex predator foxes, but they would also get their protection, so it was a win-win situation.
Tang Li Xue has Meng Yue''s vassal mark...
It means she was already under the protection of the Heaven''s Favored Child of the Fox n!
Which apex predator foxes would dare to mess with her from now on?!
After that, Tang Li Xue started to ask more about Meng Yue''s [Regalia of Reality] to Lei Qian''er in order to increase her knowledge about regalia.
Tang Li Xue found out that her [Regalia of Reality] was far from being as perfect as she had imagined before.
First, the quality of Meng Yue''s creation was actually limited by her own overall strength.
Why did she only create Flood Dragon instead of the true Azure Dragon before?
Because her overall strength was still far away from mythical-level beasts such as Azure Dragon or Phoenix, so she could not create them.
Second, the quantity of Meng Yue''s creation actually depended on her own total amount of energy.
Why did she not create the armies of Flood Dragon or millions of legendary golden swords before?
It was because she would need to spend some of her energy every time she created or did something like resurrecting herself or turning back time.
Previously, Lei Qian''er already knew that she could not even shake Meng Yue''s [Regalia of Reality] domain, so she nned to force Meng Yue to spend all of her energy in their fierce battle.
Unfortunately, she still failed in the end since Meng Yue defeated her first before she could force Meng Yue to exhaust all of her energy.
In short, Meng Yue''s ability was still severely limited by her overall strength and total amount of energy for now, but there was no doubt that her [Regalia of Reality] domain had already reached perfection.
Once Meng Yue evolved into the True Spirit Beast in the future, she would certainly be the strongest True Spirit Beast, and only the legendary Beast God might be able to suppress her!
Tang Li Xue shuddered in horror while she was thinking about it and muttered: "So, this is the true worth of Heaven''s Favored Child..."
After discussing about Meng Yue''s ability with Lei Qian''er, Tang Li Xue asked about another topic that still made her curious until now: "Oh, right... You said Meng Yue was the first-ce winner in the previous Foxes Hunting Festival. Who is in the second and third ce? Where do theye from?"
Lei Qian''er raised her head smugly and eximed while pointing at herself: "The second ce is of course... The beautiful goddess of lightning, Lei Qian''er ~!"
"Eh? What~?! You are the one who got the second ce?!" Tang Li Xue uttered in disbelief.
"Sister Xue is so meanie~! Why do you look so surprised like that?! Do I really not deserve to get the second ce?!" Lei Qian''er said as she put on an act as if she wanted to cry.
Tang Li Xueughed when she saw Lei Qian''er''s yful act and quicklyforted: "I did not really mean like that. It is just I thought Qing Qiu Fox Tribe would have another powerful apex predator foxes other than Meng Yue."
Lei Qian''er puckered her pink lips and sulked, then she started to talk to Tang Li Xue about it clearly.
The Tu Shan Fox Tribe surely has severalrger poption than the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe, but the foxes from the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe actually have higher strengthpared to the foxes from the Tu Shan Fox Tribe.
In short, the Tu Shan Fox Tribe took quantity over quality, they believed the greater the number of strong foxes in the Fox n, the stronger the Fox n would be.
While the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe took the Elite route, quality over quantity. They believed that what they needed was the most powerful chosen ones to lead the entire Fox n to prosperity.
After countless hardships and efforts, the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe finally produced what they had been hoping for all this time, the true Heaven''s Favored Child, Meng Yue.
The previous Foxes Hunting Festival was Meng Yue''s debut.
She basically pushed everything horizontally and vertically alone.
It also made the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe get 1st, 3rd, and 4th ce quite easily in the previous Foxes Hunting Festival.
While Lei Qian''er as the strongest genius fox from Tu Shan Fox Tribe only managed to get 2nd ce, and her otherrade barely squeezed into 5th ce at that time.
Honestly, Lei Qian''er felt she was really lucky since she only met with Meng Yue at the end, if not, she would certainly not be able to get that 2nd ce, and Qing Qiu Fox Tribe might take all 1st until 5th ce.
Since the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe won more ranking ces than the Tu Shan Fox Tribe in the previous Foxes Hunting Festival, their Fox n''s precious resources tilted much more toward the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe in the following years.
Tang Li Xue was extremely surprised when Lei Qian''er mentioned it.
"Damn~! So, this Foxes Hunting Festival is actually apetition game between the higher-ups to determine that?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in her shock.
Lei Qian''er nodded and added: "Not only that but they can also use this chance to inspect our growth and find genius foxes from other ces or continents. They can clearly ''kill many birds in one stone'' with this Foxes Hunting Festival."
Even though Tang Li Xue still wanted to discuss many more things to increase her knowledge, Lei Qian''er had already felt tired because she just recovered from the violent bacsh effect.
Tang Li Xue offered Lei Qian''er to just sleep here while she would guard her, but Lei Qian''er kindly refused.
Then Tang Li Xue quickly realized how ridiculous her offer was and blushed.
How could a mere weak fox like her offer to guard the strongest apex predator fox from Tu Shan Fox Tribe?! Was she daydreaming or what?!
Thankfully, Lei Qian''er tactfully did not mention it like that and only said that she already had an appointment with herrade from Tu Shan Fox Tribe, so Tang Li Xue would not need to worry about her safety.
Lei Qian''er bid her farewell to Tang Li Xue, then she transformed into three-colored lightning and shed into the skies.
Tang Li Xue sighed in slight disappointment, but her previous discussion with Lei Qian''er and Meng Yue had given her a lot of inspiration for her future development path.
Tang Li Xue decided to use [Spider Scorpion Transformation] to dig a deep underground tunnel and went to sleep to recover her energy while waiting for her [Sun and Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection to finish its cooldown.
After waking up, Tang Li Xue felt refreshed as her stamina and energy werepletely recovered.
After watching Meng Yue''s undefeatable strength, Tang Li Xue felt that she was too weak right now and wanted to get stronger as soon as possible, so she immediately decided to participate in another treasure game.
d¦Ásvel
Tang Li Xue went out of the deep underground tunnel, then she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] in order to travel around more safely.
Even though she already has the protection of Meng Yue''s vassal mark, but it would only work for the top apex predator foxes from the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe and maybe Tu Shan Fox Tribe too.
However, the predator foxes from other ces or continents probably did not know about it and would still attack her.
The skies above were still dyed with crimson red color.
In spite of that crimson skies domain could no longer affect Tang Li Xue anymore, but they still gave her an eerie and gloomy feeling as if she was being watched by someone.
Tang Li Xue increased her speed even more by using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], and it did not take long for her to reach the nearest pir of golden light.
When she almost arrived at the pir of golden light''s location, Tang Li Xue immediately slowed down her speed and increased her vignce to the maximum.
''Usually, some annoying predator-level foxes would guard near the pir of golden light to kill the otherpetitors... I have already been ambushed twice right in front of the pir of golden light before!'' Tang Li Xue thought disdainfully.
Moreover, the current pir of golden light was located near the desert area.
Tang Li Xue always felt that something might jump out from inside the sand at any time, so she did not dare to lower her guard at all.
Thankfully, it was only Tang Li Xue''s delusion, and she sessfully entered the pir of golden light without any ident.
But after Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure had vanished into the pir of golden light, the surrounding sand trembled slightly and went back to normal after a few moments.
Chapter 575: Scorching Desert!
Chapter 575: Scorching Desert!
.....
The expression of the sexy fox girl with long red hair became gloomy after she received the report from one of her mind-controlled fox ves.
"Golden vassal mark? Meng Yue!" The red-haired sexy girl gnashed her pearl-white teeth in hatred as she identally crushed therge boulder where she sat into powder.
Several fox ves that massaged her feet and shoulders just now were frightened by the terrifying powerful aura she emitted.
"Begone, worthless trashes~!" The red-haired sexy girl waved her hand in annoyance and those fox ves exploded into blood mist in an instant.
"Meng Yue~! She always wants to snatch my toys and ruin my fun~!" The red-haired sexy girl scolded Meng Yue while kept venting her anger on any object closest to her.
"Who do she think she is~?! Only a nobody without any background! How dare she mess with me again and again! She also keeps looking down on me~!" The red-haired sexy girl nagged to vent her anger and dissatisfaction.
After fifteen minutes or so, the surrounding scene waspletely destroyed and became a wastednd full of craters.
The red-haired sexy girl finally calmed down and sighed in relief.
The red-haired sexy girl let out a chilling killing intent as she muttered: "Since she dared to snatch my toy, then I would rather destroy it than let you have it~!"
Of course, the red-haired sexy girl did not dare to challenge Meng Yue frankly, but she still has so many mind-controlled fox ves, right?
If that toy was ''identally'' destroyed by her mind-controlled fox ves, then even Meng Yue would not be able to hold her ountable for it, right?
The red-haired sexy girl gave an urgent order to all of her fox ves through her crimson skies domain: "Find Meng Yue''s ve and break her for me~! No, don''t break her that easily! Torture her until she cries and ask for death miserably before you break her~!"
The red-haired sexy girl sneered in satisfaction as her slender alluring figure disappeared from that wastednd full of craters.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue still did not realize that she had just be a target of an apex predator fox from the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe because of Meng Yue''s vassal mark.
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes, she found herself in the middle of the scorching desert.
As usual, there was a countdown timer in front of Tang Li Xue''s vision.
[4591]...
[4590]...
[4589]...
"4590 seconds, huh... So, this treasure game will start in around 75 minutes." Tang Li Xue murmured as she began to carefully observe the location of the treasure game space.
The current treasure game space was actually a boundless scorching desert.
There were nine suns in the skies, so the surrounding temperature was extremely high.
Any drop of water might evaporate instantly in this treasure game space.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue has very high heat resistance thanks to her me of Pride and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline, so the extremely high temperature only affected her a bit.
Yaya was actually very eager to jump out from Tang Li Xue''s dark system space and wander around freely, but Tang Li Xue quickly warned her about the surrounding situation.
Yaya became sulked and sad since she could not y with Tang Li Xue, but under Tang Li Xue''s persuasion, she finally decided to obediently stay in the system space for now.
nd¦Ásv¦Ål m
Tang Li Xue also understood that Yaya as a tempest fairy prefers to fly freely in the open skies and y around happily without any restriction, but Tang Li Xue also felt helpless about the current situation.
There was crimson skies domain with the power to mind-control everyone, so Yaya could not go out or she would be affected by it.
But Yaya did not have high-temperature resistance like Tang Li Xue, so she might faint at any time here since the wind elemental was weak against the fire elemental.
After waiting for 75 minutes while chatting yfully with Yaya through their mental connection, the fifth treasure game finally started.
''Hopefully, this treasure game will be easier than the previous treasure game.'' Tang Li Xue silently prayed in her heart.
[2], [1], [0]...
The countdown timer changed into a string of words about the rules of the current treasure game!
[Thest surviving fox will win this treasure game.]
[Always keep your eyes open and be alert at all times since dangers cane from anywhere at any time.]
[Good luck, fox cubs~!]
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she saw the current treasure game rules.
The rules might look simple and easy to understand, but Tang Li Xue sensed that the meaning behind them was not that simple.
Especially the second rule that warns them to be careful... It seemed very ominous.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she muttered: "Hopefully, that is just my imagination..."
When she decided to hunt other foxes, Tang Li Xue was instantly stumped by a serious problem.
Tang Li Xue did not have anypass or any item to point the direction.
There were nine suns in the skies, so she could not use them to determine which direction was west or east.
"Whatever... Who cares about the direction, right? Let''s just wander around randomly and kill all moving things on sight~!" Tang Li Xue said with a carefree tone.
Tang Li Xue dashed toward a random direction, but before she could run far...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The sand under her feet suddenly shook violently!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
A gigantic sandworm jumped out from inside the sand and opened its huge mouth filled with sharp teeth toward Tang Li Xue!
Even Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] failed to notice this gigantic sandworm ahead of time, so Tang Li Xue was really caught off guard in surprise this time.
But Tang Li Xue''s reaction speed was not slow at all.
[Shadow sh]~!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure instantly teleported to the gigantic sandworm''s shadow on the right side, and she sessfully avoided getting swallowed by the gigantic sandworm.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!
The gigantic sandworm''s huge body crashed heavily onto the sand and swiftly sank back into the sand!
"What the hell is that disgusting thing?!" Tang Li Xue uttered in shock and disgust.
Before Tang Li Xue could take a breath, the gigantic sandworm already opened its huge mouth filled with sharp teeth from under the sand and swallowed Tang Li Xue in one gulp!
In this dangerous situation, Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to quickly enter [Divine Possession] with Yaya!
*Ding!
[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]
[Wind Guardian Blessing] activated! (Increase overall speed by 50%)
Before the gigantic sandworm could close its huge mouth, Tang Li Xue already flew out swiftly from the gigantic sandworm''s mouth.
But just when Tang Li Xue got out of the gigantic sandworm''s mouth, the other gigantic sandworm already attacked her too!
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step]~!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure was moving extremely fast leaving several afterimages behind as she dodged the other gigantic sandworm''s bite!
The other two gigantic sandworms jumped out from inside the sand and pounced toward Tang Li Xue!
Two... Four... Six... Eight... Ten...
After more than ten gigantic sandworms appeared to Tang Li Xue stopped counting and decided to run away quickly from them.
Now Tang Li Xue understood why the second rule even bothered to give them stern warnings about being careful!
This scorching desert was actually an enormous hellish nest of nasty creatures!
One single slip off then anyone would die instantly here without knowing what happened to them!
"Damn it~! I should have known that there is no easy treasure game at all~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in frustration.
Disgusting gigantic sandworms jumped out from inside the sand one after another as Tang Li Xue flew above them, and they started to relentlessly attack her!
Tang Li Xue skillfully dodged their relentless attacks by using the high speed of [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step]!
But the gigantic sandworms quickly changed their strategy and began spewing acid liquid toward Tang Li Xue instead!
Tang Li Xue could no longer avoid the rain of acid liquid, so sheunched a counterattack toward them with Yaya''s powerful attacking skill!
[Cyclone Storm]!
Different from Tang Li Xue''s expectation, there was no huge towering hurricane appeared, but only a harmless small whirlwind.
Without any hesitation, Tang Li Xue quickly created a protection shield above her head by using [Energy Maniption] to protect herself from the rain of acid liquid instead!
Tang Li Xue''s mind was thinking fast, and she instantly understood what just had happened.
This scorching desert space has too rich fire elemental, so the other elemental would be greatly weakened here while the fire elemental would be greatly strengthened!
''Should I just enter [Perfect Assimtion] mode with Phoenix of Pride? But my speed will drop significantly in the [Perfect Assimtion] mode. It will be harder for me to get out from this sea of gigantic sandworms in the [Perfect Assimtion] mode.'' Tang Li Xue pondered her next move carefully.
The other several gigantic sandworms already jumped out from the sand under Tang Li Xue and pounced toward her at the same time!
Tang Li Xue could see their enormous mouth filled with sharp teeth getting closer to her rapidly, so she hastily used her fire-type divine ability to face them!
[Sun Dragon Fangs]~!
Deep blue majestic dragon head condensed instantly from me of Pride!
The majestic dragon head was biting down the gigantic sandworms from the left side before they could reach Tang Li Xue!
The [Sun Dragon Fangs] sessfully stopped the gigantic sandworms'' movement for a few moments, but it failed to leave any significant wounds on them.
Chapter 576: Desperate Situation!
Chapter 576: Desperate Situation!
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she saw one of her most powerful divine abilities, [Sun Dragon Fangs], failed to leave any significant injuries on the gigantic sandworms.
Tang Li Xue''s mind worked fast and she immediately found several reasons why her [Sun Dragon Fangs] did not work on the gigantic sandworms.
First, the gigantic sandworms were the native creatures in this nine suns scorching desert, so they have very high resistance to any fire elemental attack.
Second, those gigantic sandworms not only have enormous body sizes but also hard and thick meaty bodies.
Third, those gigantic sandworms surprisingly could move very fast and freely in this scorching desert like fishes in the water.
It would not be an easy task to injure or kill any of those gigantic sandworms with all of these advantages.
''Moreover, their bodies will spurt out extremely dangerous acid liquid when they get injured. Fighting against them in close-range battle might be the worst option to do.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Tang Li Xue shook her head as she turned down the option to use [Perfect Assimtion] mode with Phoenix of Pride to fight against those gigantic sandworms.
It waspletely an unwise thing to do since it would only exhaust her energy and stamina faster.
While Tang Li Xue was struggling to block the several gigantic sandworms that pounced toward her from the front, more than ten already caught up to her from behind!
Tang Li Xue was under siege by so many gigantic sandworms from all directions at once!
[Incinerate Acid Spray]~!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she was forced to use one of Yaya''s most powerful defensive skills!
[Hurricane Barrier]~!
But the [Hurricane Barrier] Tang Li Xue managed to create was only a gentle breeze.
"Damn it~!" Tang Li Xue cursed in anger.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue decided to cancel [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya, then woke up the Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian and entered [Perfect Assimtion] mode with it.
When the gigantic sandworms'' [Incinerate Acid Spray] almost touched Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure...
[Phoenix Cloak]!
CRRRSSSS~!
The rain of green acid liquid shed against the deep blue me cloak!
The green acid liquid was supposed to have high resistance against heat since it did not evaporate for a long time under the extremely high temperature of nine suns.
But the green acid liquid was actually evaporated directly the moment it touched the deep blue me me of Pride!
"Wow~! The me of Pride also got so much stronger here~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in delight.
Unfortunately, it was not the time for Tang Li Xue to feel happy since so many gigantic sandworms were pouncing toward her while opening their disgusting enormous mouth filled with sharp teeth!
[Phoenix Wings]~!
A pair of deep blue me wings unfurled behind Tang Li Xue''s back.
Tang Li Xue hastily pped the deep blue me wings to fly higher to avoid getting swallowed by those gigantic sandworms!
However, those gigantic sandworms still have not given up and jumped out from the sand toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue shuddered slightly in disgust when she saw their enormous mouth filled with sharp teeth zooming toward her at high speed.
[Sun Dragon sh]~!
By using her deep blue me of Pride as the propulsive force, Tang Li Xue greatly increased her flying speed in a short time like a rocket!
Tang Li Xue used this chance to keep her distance and swiftly get away further from those hungry gigantic sandworms!
Even though her me of Pride became so much stronger here, but she still did not n to fight against those hungry gigantic sandworms since this treasure game was about how long she could survive in this extremely dangerous environment, not about how many she could kill those gigantic sandworms.
Unfortunately, it was already a bit toote for Tang Li Xue to do that because there were already many more gigantic sandworms flocking here right now!
As those gigantic sandworms jumped out from the sand at once, Tang Li Xue''s silver furs stood up in dread and felt a bit nauseous in disgust when she saw the terrifying scene below.
Previously, there were only around twenty to thirty hungry gigantic sandworms that were chasing after her, but now, the number had increased by more than three times, reaching seventy to ny!
In the middle of this sea of hungry gigantic sandworms, there was no longer a safe direction for Tang Li Xue to run!
Tang Li Xue immediately realized that entering [Perfect Assimtion] mode with Phoenix of Pride here might be the worst idea.
The richness of the me elemental in Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body had increased many times after she entered [Perfect Assimtion] mode, and those hungry gigantic sandworms could clearly sense it.
Her rash decision made more and more hungry gigantic sandworms wake up from their slumber as they ''smell'' the extremely rich me elemental from Tang Li Xue''s body.
These hungry gigantic sandworms definitely regard Tang Li Xue in [Perfect Assimtion] mode as the most delicious delicacy and be much more active because of it!
Anyway, there was no time for Tang Li Xue to regret it since those gigantic sandworms had already impatiently swarmed over Tang Li Xue!
d¦Ásvel
[Fire Wall]~!
Tang Li Xue hastily erected a deep blue me wall right below her to keep those gigantic sandworms from pouncing toward her!
But those manic gigantic sandworms did not care about Tang Li Xue''s [Fire Wall] at all and still jumped toward her while greedily opening their mouths filled with sharp teeth!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s [Fire Wall] could not withstand the attack from so many gigantic sandworms and exploded!
Thankfully, the [Fire Wall]''s explosion managed to repel more than half of the gigantic sandworms!
Just as more than ten other gigantic sandworms almost reached Tang Li Xue...
[me Tiger Roaring ws]~!
The image of the White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes was instantly condensed behind Tang Li Xue, and it was much bigger than usual because of the fire elemental buff from this scorching desert!
ROOOOOOAAAAAAAARRR~!!!
The deafening tiger roar echoed through the scorching desert!
Unfortunately, it did not affect the gigantic sandworms at all since they did not have any sense of hearing.
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
More than ten other gigantic sandworms were pped away by the deep blue me tiger ws!
Tang Li Xue''s [me Tiger Roaring ws] managed to leave huge gaping wounds on those gigantic sandworms, but they were not that effective since that kind of wound was nothingpared to their enormous body.
Even if Tang Li Xue tore their body in two, these gigantic sandworms might not have died and could have regenerated back to normalter like earthworms.
"Damn it~! Keep fighting them like this will only exhaust me faster! But I really have run out of options to get away from here..." Tang Li Xue muttered in frustration.
The beautiful figures of Meng Yue and Lei Qian''er shed in her mind, and Tang Li Xue started to wonder what would they do in this situation.
With Meng Yue''s overpowered [Regalia of Reality] domain, these gigantic sandworms would certainly be no more than a ything for her.
But what about Lei Qian''er? Even her extremely powerful three-colored lightning would be greatly weakened here, right?
Tang Li Xue sighed and shook her head while scolding herself: ''Why the hell do I keepparing myself with them even in this critical situation?! Tang Li Xue, you better use your brain to think of a way to get away from here fast before you arepletely exhausted!''
Tang Li Xue muttered in disappointment: "If only I could use [Purple Destruction Wave] or [Supernova Explosion Bomb], cleaning these entire gigantic sandworms in one single attack might be possible..."
However, Tang Li Xue immediately denied that idea since she would bepletely exhausted after using any one of those overpowered moves.
The other twenty or so gigantic sandworms already ganged up on Tang Li Xue again without giving her any time to recover!
Tang Li Xue tried to get away from those gigantic sandworms using [Sun Dragon sh], but the other gigantic sandworms wereing toward her from the other different directions!
[Fiery Bullets]~!
Tang Li Xue condensed several huge deep blue fireballs andpressed them to be smaller deep blue bullets, then she shot the approaching gigantic sandworms using them!
BOOOOOOOM~! BOOOOOOOM~! BOOOOOOOM~!
Tang Li Xue sprayed [Fiery Bullets] toward the gigantic sandworms that hungrily pounced toward her from below since she was still flying in the sky with her deep blue [Phoenix Wings]!
Tang Li Xue never hoped these [Fiery Bullets] to hurt any of those gigantic sandworms, but at least, these [Fiery Bullets] would not let those disgusting gigantic sandworms jump to her so easily.
Just like Tang Li Xue had expected, the rapid shooting [Fiery Bullets] managed to st the pouncing gigantic sandworms and made them fall back down to the sand.
Even though the effect of [Fiery Bullets] was not bad, but it could only help Tang Li Xue stall for more time and did not ease her current desperate situation at all.
"These damn sandworms are so annoying~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in rage.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue really wanted to use her [War Goddess Mode] and get away from here quickly, but that idea was also not realistic since she would be attacked by violent bacsh soon after that.
In this extremely desperate situation, Tang Li Xue suddenly remembered that she had awakened a new divine ability after consuming the gray [Dried Dharma Fruit] before.
Chapter 577: The Power of [Mystic Whisper]!
Chapter 577: The Power of [Mystic Whisper]!
Even though Tang Li Xue doubted that her newly awakened divine ability could help her out of this current desperate situation, but she really had run out of options right now.
Without any other choice left, Tang Li Xue decided to try using her newly awakened divine ability on those gigantic sandworms.
While kept spraying [Fiery Bullets] on the approaching gigantic sandworms, Tang Li Xue read the effect of her newly awakened divine ability from her system''s status window.
[Mystic Whisper]: Using the power of words to temporarily take control of the target''s mind without the target realizing it. (The effect and power of this divine ability depend on the user''s Spirit stat. If the target''s Spirit stat is higher than the user, the effect of this divine ability will be greatly weakened or it might not even affect the target at all.)
"So, the effect of this [Mystic Whisper] is depending on the difference between my Spirit stat and the targets?!" Tang Li Xue uttered while taking a nce at so many gigantic sandworms around her.
"Ummm... They do not look smart at all, so their Spirit stat should be much lower than mine, right?" Tang Li Xue muttered with an unsure tone.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she began to mobilize the power of [Mystic Whisper]!
"Stop moving~!" Tang Li Xue did not let out any voice from her mouth, but the sound created by her [Mystic Whisper] seemed to prate directly into the nearby gigantic sandworms'' consciousness.
Several nearby gigantic sandworms immediately halted their movement all of a sudden, and it made several other gigantic sandworms behind them crash into them!
"It works~!" Tang Li Xue eximed excitedly.
But Tang Li Xue quickly found another problem from this [Mystic Whisper]...
Maybe because Tang Li Xue used it on several gigantic sandworms at once, but it actually consumed quite a lot of energy!
Moreover, this [Mystic Whisper] would continuously consume her energy as long as those several gigantic sandworms were still under its mind-controlling effect!
Luckily, this [Mystic Whisper]''s continuous consumption was still a lot lesspared to [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes], if not, she would surely not even be able tost for a few minutes before her stamina and energy werepletely drained.
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to use [Mystic Whisper] again and gave another order to those several gigantic sandworms: "Go, fight them to death~!"
The several gigantic sandworms obediently turned around under Tang Li Xue''s order!
BOOOOOM~! BOOOOOM~! BAAAAAAANNGG~!
Those several gigantic sandworms began to pounce hungrily toward the other gigantic sandworms and mercilessly bite them with their huge mouths filled with sharp teeth!
Although, those several gigantic sandworms under Tang Li Xue''s [Mystic Whisper] control were fighting ferociously, but they were quickly outnumbered by so many other gigantic sandworms and got suppressed in less than one minute.
Tang Li Xue hastily took this chance to get away further from them using [Sun Dragon sh] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and flying swiftly toward a random direction!
But those other gigantic sandworms would not let Tang Li Xue get away from them so easily!
More than ten gigantic sandworms jumped out from inside the sand and attacked Tang Li Xue from all directions!
Tang Li Xue hastily urged her [Mystic Whisper] divine ability once again and the mysterious mystic sound prated directly into these gigantic sandworms'' consciousness: "You will forget about me and could no longer sense me~!"
In that instant, those more than ten gigantic sandworms looked confused as if they hadpletely forgotten about Tang Li Xue. After they wandered around for a few moments in bewilderment and failed to find anything interesting, they sank back into the sand.
nd¦Ásn¦Ïv¦Ål
Tang Li Xue realized again that her energy was consumed even more rapidly than before.
It seems the more difficult the orders she gave to the affected targets with this [Mystic Whisper], the more energy it would consume.
''Sigh... So, this [Mystic Whisper] is undoubtedly a powerful divine ability, but it is also a quite difficult ability to use.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her heart.
Just like [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes], if Tang Li Xue did not use this [Mystic Whisper] carefully, it might be a double-edged sword for her.
This was also the reason why Tang Li Xue never used her [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] rashly against her opponents until now.
It was because if she used it rashly, her entire energy and stamina would bepletely drained by it, and she would surely not be able to cope with the other iing danger or opponentter.
When Meng Yue''s words about the ''core of abilities'' shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind, she started to think about which ability was the most suitable to be her core ability.
But several tens of gigantic sandworms already surrounded her and hungrily pounced toward her again!
"Tsk, they are really persistent~! Urgh, so annoying~!" Tang Li Xue groaned, but just when she wanted to use her [Mystic Whisper] to chase them away again just like before...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The entire scorching desert was trembling violently all of a sudden!
"No way~! Are you kidding me?! This is... SANDSTORM~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in horror.
Tang Li Xue hastily used her [Energy Maniption] to create a thick barrier around her!
Before Tang Li Xue couldplete it, the extremely violent sandstorm had already crashed into her!
Tang Li Xue could no longer maintain her flight when the extremely violent sandstorm sted her away and made her fall down from the sky onto the sand!
The thick barrier she just barely created with her [Energy Maniption] was instantly filled with cracks!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she urged her [Energy Maniption] once again to quickly fix the cracked thick barrier!
But so many gigantic sandworms already sensed Tang Li Xue''s presence, and they began to flock toward her!
Tang Li Xue could no longer fly in this extremely violent sandstorm, but the sand under her was filled with so many gigantic sandworms!
All of a sudden, Tang Li Xue was plunged into an even more dangerous situation than before!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down, so she could think more clearly.
''Core ability and auxiliary abilities. Several auxiliary abilities can be used to strengthen the core ability.''
''Fire elemental is greatly strengthened here.''
''So... how about...''
Tang Li Xue''s mind instantly cleared out of all distractions as she felt enlightenment.
The thick barrier created from [Energy Maniption] was heating up and changed color from transparent to deep blue!
Right at this time, one of the gigantic sandworms jumped onto Tang Li Xue and sessfully swallowed her!
But before long...
PPPUUUUUUUFFF~!
A huge deep blue sword stabbed out from inside that gigantic sandworm!
Then the huge deep blue sword easily split the gigantic sandworm in two in an instant!
"By using me of Pride as core ability, and [Energy Maniption] as auxiliary ability, I can create a lot of things imbued with powerful me elemental~!" Tang Li Xue muttered as her silver furry figure was shrouded with extremely high temperature deep blue mes.
Tang Li Xue had also used [Fire-Wind Sword] before, but that was apletely different skill since that was abination of Yaya''s [Wind Sword] and Phoenix of Pride''s [me Arrow] in [War Goddess Mode].
This time, Tang Li Xue managed to create a huge deep blue sword with a power not much less than that [Fire-Wind Sword] in [War Goddess Mode]!
All this time, Tang Li Xue was too fixated on Instructor Mei Lan''s way of using power like her [Vibration Construct].
But Instructor Mei Lan''s way was not suitable for Tang Li Xue!
Because Instructor Mei Lan has a limited number of divine abilities, so she could only decide to hone each of them to perfection.
Meng Yue''s way waspletely different than Instructor Mei Lan''s.
Meng Yue chose to perfect only her core ability while integrating her many other abilities as an auxiliary to strengthen her core ability.
In this way, she did not need to spend so much of her time honing her abilities to perfection one by one like Instructor Mei Lan, and the more abilities she used as an auxiliary, the more powerful her core ability would be!
In short, Meng Yue''s way had given Tang Li Xue a lot of inspiration, and it suited her more than Instructor Mei Lan''s way.
Tang Li Xue sighed in admiration.
However, Tang Li Xue did not know that Meng Yue''s way was taught by the instructors from the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe, while Instructor Mei Lan''s way was taught by the instructors from the Tu Shan Fox Tribe!
By following Meng Yue''s way, Tang Li Xue unknowingly stepped into the path taught by the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe!
More than ten gigantic sandworms already besieged Tang Li Xue from all directions at once!
But Tang Li Xue was no longer afraid of them...
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Rapid Quick shes!
PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~!
The huge deep blue sword danced around swiftly under Tang Li Xue''s control, and it easily chopped more than ten gigantic sandworms into pieces!
Even though Tang Li Xue easily cut the approaching gigantic sandworms to pieces with the huge deep blue sword, the other gigantic sandworms still pounced toward her without any fear!
"Damn it~! It looks like these gigantic sandworms really do not have any brains to think! They are surely only targeting me because of extreme hunger!" Tang Li Xue cursed while gnashing her fangs.
Chapter 578: Surrounded From All Directions!
Chapter 578: Surrounded From All Directions!
Even Tang Li Xue was still not sure just how many gigantic sandworms were here until now.
Continuing to fight against so many gigantic sandworms like this was definitely an unwise choice since she would certainly be exhausted sooner orter.
Tang Li Xue''s mind started to think fast to find a way out of this more desperate situation.
But she still did not stop controlling the huge deep blue sword to cut the approaching gigantic sandworms!
PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~!
Protected by the deep blue transparent barrier, Tang Li Xue might look unaffected by the extremely violent sandstorm, but she still could not fly in this weather.
Besieged by so many gigantic sandworms from all directions, Tang Li Xue also could not just run away from them with her feet.
Just when Tang Li Xue was still thinking very hard, the sand below her feet was suddenly trembling violently!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue was thrown off into the air as a gigantic sandworm appeared all of a sudden from the sand below her feet!
Tang Li Xue skillfully controlled the huge deep blue sword to swiftly move closer toward her, and shended on top of it!
However, the violent sandstorm greatly shook the huge deep blue sword and almost made Tang Li Xue fall down from it.
Without waiting for Tang Li Xue to stabilize her footing, several gigantic sandworms already opened their huge mouth filled with sharp teeth and pounced toward her from below!
"This damn sandstorm~! Is it helping these sandworms to fight against me~?!" Tang Li Xue scolded in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue tapped her feet and jumped from the deep blue sword, then the huge deep blue sword suddenly spun with lightning speed!
Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~!
All of the gigantic sandworms that pounced toward Tang Li Xue were cut into several pieces by the spinning huge deep blue sword!
But as a consequence, the jumping Tang Li Xue was blown away by the violent sandstorm!
At this moment, Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining like a pair of blue stars in excitement.
"I can get out from here using this way~?! Cough, cough... I mean all is ording to my n. Of course, this has been my n since the very beginning!" Tang Li Xue shamelessly eximed with a delighted tone.
Tang Li Xue might not be able to fly in this violent sandstorm, but she could just let it blow her away like this.
Tang Li Xue quickly controlled the huge deep blue sword to fly closer to her, and then she changed the deep blue sword''s form into arge umbre.
The base of therge umbre was attached to Tang Li Xue''s deep blue barrier.
When the huge umbre was blown away by the violent sandstorm, Tang Li Xue inside the deep blue barrier would also follow it.
The way it worked was the same as the parachute, but Tang Li Xue made them a lot stronger from her me of Pride and [Energy Maniption].
It waspletely different from before when Tang Li Xue used a pair of [Phoenix Wings] to fly, then the violent sandstorm blew her away until she spun dizzily in the air and crashed down onto the sand.
However, those gigantic sandworms have not given up on swallowing Tang Li Xue yet!
Many gigantic sandworms hungrily chased after Tang Li Xue and jumped onto her again while opening their huge mouth filled with sharp teeth!
"Tsk~! Just how persistent are you?!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a disgusted tone.
Tang Li Xue did not want those gigantic sandworms to catch up to her, so she could only spend some of her energy condensing a solid deep blue wall to obstruct them for a few moments.
BAAAAAAANNGG~! BAAAAAAANNGG~! BAAAAAAANNGG~!
The gigantic sandworms crawling on the very front crashed into the solid deep blue wall while the ones behind crashed into them.
The solid deep blue wall crumbled apart by the violent crash, but it had alreadypleted its mission by stalling time for Tang Li Xue.
nd¦Ásv¦Ål m
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when the violent sandstorm blew her further and further away from the nest of gigantic sandworms.
Tang Li Xue still did not know where this violent sandstorm would bring her, but the requirement to win this treasure game was to survive longer than the other foxes so she did not mind wandering around randomly for a bit longer as long as the situation waspletely safe.
Tang Li Xue took this rare chance to rest and restore her energy.
Unfortunately, her rare peaceful moment to rest did notst long as she met with another unfavorable situation after fifteen minutes or so.
"Sigh... Here we go again?! This damn treasure game is really nning to kill all of us until onest fox remains~!" Tang Li Xueined in resentment.
The violent sandstormpletely blocked Tang Li Xue''s vision, so she could not see anything at all from inside the deep blue barrier.
Even her [Extrasensory Perception] failed to give any warning on time.
By the time Tang Li Xue had realized the iing danger, it was already toote for her to avoid it.
BOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOMM~!
Thousands of me crows already besieged Tang Li Xue from all directions andunched their fireball attack toward the deep blue barrier!
Tang Li Xue''s deep blue barrier was instantly filled with countless cracks under the first salvo of the entire legion of fire crows!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger as she condensed a huge deep blue sword with her me of Pride and [Energy Maniption] before they could break her barrier!
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Rapid Quick shes!
The huge deep blue sword danced around swiftly to cut those despicable me crows!
But different from the previous gigantic sandworms, these fire crows were not only much smaller but also much more agile and fast than them!
Even Tang Li Xue''s [Rapid Quick shes] only managed to cut very few of the fire crows!
"What the hell~! These fire crows are actually much more annoying than those disgusting sandworms?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
If the previous gigantic sandworms were the fearless meat tanks, then these fire crows were coordinated assassins!
Moreover, they could fly around very swiftlypletely unhindered by the violent sandstorm!
No, this violent sandstorm might even be the one who gave them arge speed boost!
Those fire crows shot another salvo of fireballs mercilessly toward Tang Li Xue for the second time!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The thick deep blue barrier was shattered by their attack in an instant!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (2/3)]
Thankfully, her [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection had already finished its cooldown, if not, Tang Li Xue would surely be eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival!
After the barrier and the huge umbre were destroyed, Tang Li Xue fell down from the sky, while those fire crows chased after her by swooping down at high speed.
Tang Li Xue plunged into a violent sandstorm and found it very hard to breathe in this extreme weather.
Before those fire crows couldunch another attack on her, Tang Li Xue decided to use her [Mystic Whisper] to stop them!
"Go, fight them to death~!"
The mysterious sound prated directly into the minds of several nearby fire crows!
In that instant, those several fire crows turned around and started to attack their own kind!
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
"Eh? Using [Mystic Whisper] on these fire crows actually consumes much less energypared to using it on the previous gigantic sandworms?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in surprise.
Tang Li Xue also wondered why it was like that. These fire crows were clearly much smarter than the previous brainless sandworms. Maybe because of the difference in their size?
But it was clearly not the time to think about that since Tang Li Xue already crashed hard onto the sand, and the sand below started to tremble violently!
"Now what?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in anger.
Countless three meters long sand scorpions were pouring out from inside the sand!
Tang Li Xue''s body went numb in that instant when she saw the terrifying scene in front of her eyes.
Meanwhile, the other fire crows already surrounded Tang Li Xue andunched another fireball salvo toward her!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs and hastily urged her [Sun Dragon ws]!
A pair of [Sun Dragon ws] exploded, and Tang Li Xue was thrown away tens of meters because of the shockwave explosion!
So many angry sand scorpions already crawled toward Tang Li Xue and stabbed their venomous tails toward her!
Without even having any time to breathe or stand up, Tang Li Xuepressed a deep blue [Fire Bomb] from her me of Pride and threw it on the crowd of sand scorpions!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
A great explosion managed to kill tens of sand scorpions at once, but it also made the other sand scorpions be even angrier at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue started to breathe heavier as her energy and stamina were drained more and more rapidly in this intense battle.
The sand that entered her breath made her extremely ufortable.
The fire crows who were still flying in the airunched another fireball salvo on Tang Li Xue.
"These little bast*rds~! Just because they are fast and can fly in the sandstorm, they really think I cannot do anything to them?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anger.
Chapter 579: Sudden-Death Match!
Despite her anger and annoyance, Tang Li Xue did not dare to lower her guard in front of this legion of fire crows.
Even the previous deep blue barrier created from her me of Pride and [Energy Maniption] was shattered by their united fireball attack.
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to use her equipment skill, [Shadow sh], to avoid their fireball salvo!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The fire crows'' fireball salvo struck the ce where Tang Li Xue stood, but Tang Li Xue had already teleported to the sand scorpion''s shadow 100 meters away from her.
[Fiery Bullets]~!
Tang Li Xue sprayed [Fiery Bullets] rapidly toward the fire crows in the sky and sand scorpions on the sand.
BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~!
The smart armies of fire crows immediately flew higher to keep their distance from Tang Li Xue.
The angry sand scorpions kept charging toward Tang Li Xue, and their number kept increasing rapidly as the new ones kept drilling out from the sand!
Tang Li had already prepared herself to engage in a long continuous battle in this survival-type treasure game, but the huge number of sand scorpions and fire crows were putting heavier and heavier pressure on her!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she decided to put a few more buffs on herself to increase her strength!
[Talisman of Giant Strength], [Talisman of Lightning Speed], and [Talisman of Iron Skin] activated!
After Tang Li Xue stopped shooting [Fiery Bullets], the fire crows swiftly flew to approach Tang Li Xue again, and they were ready tounch another fireball salvo at her!
However, they failed to realize a cunning smile on Tang Li Xue''s furry fox face.
"Heh~! You might be able to avoid my sword before, but how about this one?!" Tang Li Xue said as she created another huge weapon using her me of Pride as the core and [Energy Maniption] divine ability as an auxiliary.
But her current weapon has a quite strange form... Err, well... It was actually a huge fly swatter!
"Eat this, you little bugs~!" Tang Li Xue shouted in an angry tone as she controlled the huge fly swatter to swing at the fire crows!
POOF~! POOF~! POOF~! POOF~! POOF~!
Many fire crows were smacked to pieces by the huge fly swatter in one swing!
BAAAAAAAAANNNGG~!
When the huge fly swatternded on the sand, many sand scorpions were also crushed!
In just one strike, the huge fly swatter actually destroyed so many fire crows and sand scorpions!
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in surprise.
Even she herself never expected that the random item she created in anger would have such a powerful effect against these fire crows and sand scorpions.
"Wooaaah~! As I expected from the divine weapon I created~! To think it is so unbelievably powerful~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in awe.
Tang Li Xue stared at the fire crows and sand scorpions with eyes filled with killing intent andughed maniacally as she started to swing her divine fly swatter rapidly at them!
BAAAAANNGG~! BAAAAANNGG~! BAAAANNGG~!
No one would have thought that a mere fly swatter could actually make the desperate situation Tang Li Xue was facing turn upside down in an instant!
Hundreds of shattered fire crows fell down to the sand under the might of Tang Li Xue''s divine fly swatter!
While the number of sand scorpions was decreasing steadily as Tang Li Xue kept crushing many of them using her divine fly swatter!
Tang Li Xue excitedly kept swinging her divine fly swatter violently without any intention to stop.
After ten minutes or so, there were countless broken corpses of fire crows and sand scorpions around Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue tried to perceive with her [Extrasensory Perception] if there were still fire crows and sand scorpions left around her since she could not see anything in this violent sandstorm.
She sighed in relief after her [Extrasensory Perception] failed to find any other dangerous target around here.
Tang Li Xue nced at her extremely powerful divine fly swatter in awe andined: "From now on, you are my true partner~! To hell with the sword~! What a useless piece of junk is that?! It can only cut those useless worms with shy moves, but it cannot even cut birds and bugs~!"
She reluctantly dispersed the divine fly swatter since it took some of her energy to control and swing it around.
In this survival treasure game where any danger coulde at any time, it would be better if she could use her energy more sparingly.
Tang Li Xue sat on the sand and began to think: ''Ummm... Should I stay here and wait patiently? But I can also actively look for other foxes and kill them so this treasure game could end quicker, right?''
After hesitating for a few whiles, Tang Li Xue decided to rest here for some time to recover her energy.
But before she couldpletely recover her energy, another danger already came toward her!
"Holysh*t~! What the hell is that?!" Tang Li Xue eximed while dumbfounded as she saw a huge shadow on the sand moving extremely fast toward her!
KKKKKEEEEEEAAAAAAKKK~!
An enormous crimson me crow suddenly descended from the sky!
Tang Li Xue had already prepared, but the movement of the enormous crimson me crow was too fast!
It was already toote for her to dodge, so she could only defend herself from the enormous crimson me crow''s swift w attack!
[Phoenix Cloak]!
BAAAAAAAAAAAANNNG~!
The crimson me crow''s w easily tore Tang Li Xue''s [Phoenix Cloak] and pierced Tang Li Xue''s body!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (1/3)]
As if being struck by a heavy hammer, Tang Li Xue was thrown off tens of meters and rolled on the sand for another several meters before stopping!
Thankfully, she was still unharmed because of her [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection, if not for it, the crimson me crow''s w would have already torn her body in two by now!
"Damn it~! You got to be kidding me, right?! Just because I beat its children with a fly swatter, their motheres here to kill me?!" Tang Li Xue groaned in annoyance.
Different from the previous smaller ones she had ever faced, Tang Li Xue could sense the oppression aura from this big mommy of fire crows... It was actually unbelievably powerful!
Uhhh... Of course, it was still too far from beingpared to Apex Predator-level foxes like Meng Yue and Lei Qian''er, but at least, it might be on par with predator-level foxes.
The worst part was that Tang Li Xue still could not fly in this violent sandstorm, while this enormous crimson fire crow could fly more freely and swiftly in his violent sandstorm just like its children.
"If I enter [Divine Possession] with Yaya, this violent sandstorm can no longer affect me, and I can fly freely again, but Yaya''s wind elemental is weakened greatly here." Tang Li Xue murmured while frowning deeply.
While Tang Li Xue thought carefully about a way to defeat the enormous crimson fire crow, it alreadyunched another attack toward her!
[Scattered me Feathers]~!
The enormous crimson fire crow rapidly pped its wings and shot so many crimson feathers at Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue realized that she was going to be stabbed into a sieve if she tried to defend herself from this attack, so she decided tounch an attack to neutralize them instead!
[me Tiger Roaring ws]~!
The image of the White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes was instantly condensed behind Tang Li Xue!
It was much bigger and more powerful than usual thanks to the fire elemental buff from this scorching desert!
ROOOOAAAAARRR~!
The deafening tiger roar echoed through the scorching desert!
The huge White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes swung its me ws toward the iing crimson feathers!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue''s [me Tiger Roaring ws] shed head-on violently against the enormous crimson fire crow''s [Scattered me Feathers]!
The rolling explosion shockwave sted Tang Li Xue back for several dozens of meters!
However, her [me Tiger Roaring ws] sessfully wiped out the enormous crimson fire crow''s [Scattered me Feathers].
Tang Li Xue quickly stood up again in vignce, but she coughed out several mouthfuls of blood.
Just when the enormous crimson fire crow wanted tounch another swift attack on Tang Li Xue...
A huge text suddenly appeared in front of Tang Li Xue!
[Since there are only three fox cubs remaining, this treasure game will enter Sudden-Death Match!]
[From now on, the locations of all foxes could be sensed by each other every ten minutes!]
"What the hell is this? Sudden-Death Match?" Tang Li Xue murmured in surprise.
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly could sense the location of the other two foxes.
One of them was quite far away from her. It was around twenty to thirty miles away to her left.
But thest one was surprisingly close to her!
It was located around three hundred meters from her right!
"Who cares about that now, right?! I cannot even get away from this big fire crow''s mommy, so how the hell I can find and beat the other foxes?!" Tang Li Xue angrily said.
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue sensed that the nearest fox was actually heading at high speed toward her, but before she could worry about that, the enormous crimson me crow alreadyunched another swift attack on her!
SWOOOOOOOSSH~!
The enormous crimson me crow dived down toward Tang Li Xue with breakneck speed and stabbed its sharp w at Tang Li Xue again!
"You damned bird~! Take this~!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she created a huge fly swatter using me of Pride and [Energy Maniption] and swung it at the enormous crimson me crow!
Chapter 580: Three Way Fierce Battle!
Chapter 580: Three Way Fierce Battle!
BAAAAAAAANNNGG~!
The huge fly swatter heavily struck the enormous crimson me crow who dived down with breakneck speed and managed to hit its right-wing!
The huge fly swatter was shattered to pieces under the hard collision, but the enormous crimson me crow''s diving trajectory changed in that instant!
Not only did its attack fail to hit Tang Li Xue, but its body fell down heavily and pierced deeply into the sand!
Even Tang Li Xue did not expect that her divine fly swatter would be so powerful that it could not only negate the enormous crimson me crow''s attack but also sweep it like a huge fly.
"Chance~!" Tang Li Xue uttered in excitement.
Tang Li Xue would never let this chance go and immediatelyunched an attack on the enormous crimson me crow before it could recover!
Tang Li Xue hastily used one of her most destructive skills onto the fallen enormous crimson me crow!
[me Tiger Roaring ws]~!
A huge image of the White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes was condensed behind Tang Li Xue and roared into the sky!
RROOOOOOAAARRR~!
The enormous crimson me crow felt really dizzy because of the White Tiger''s deafening roar!
The huge White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes swung its me ws toward the dizzy enormous crimson me crow!
PUUUUUFFF~! PUUUUUFFF~!
The White Tiger''s me ws managed to leave deep criss-cross wounds on the enormous crimson me crow''s back!
The enormous crimson me crow chirped in pain and started to p its wings rapidly to keep its distance from Tang Li Xue!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue would not let it do that so easily.
Before it could fly further away, Tang Li Xue quickly used [Sun Dragon sh] and jumped onto the back of the enormous crimson me crow while creating a sharp deep blue spear with her me of Pride and [Energy Maniption]!
Before the enormous crimson me crow could shake her off, Tang Li Xue controlled the sharp deep blue spear to stab into the deep wounds on the crimson me crow''s back!
PUUUUUFFF~!
"Eat this, you big stupid bird mommy~!" Tang Li Xue uttered with a gloating tone.
The enormous crimson me crow chirped out loud in pain. It could no longer maintain its flight and fell down onto the sand again!
The crimson me crow''s feathers were extremely sturdy like it was made from hard metal.
Normally, Tang Li Xue''s attack could not easily injure this enormous crimson me crow.
But after her [me Tiger Roaring ws] left deep gaping wounds on its body, Tang Li Xue only needed to poke and gouge those deep gaping wounds to hurt it.
The enormous crimson me crow rolled furiously on the sand to shake Tang Li Xue off from its body, but Tang Li Xue bit hard onto the deep blue spear''s handle so she would not fall from the crimson me crow''s back!
"This damn fire crow''s big mommy is really tough~! But so what?! If one spear is not enough to kill you, then I will just need to add a few more~!" Tang Li Xue uttered with a cold tone.
Tang Li Xue created a few more deep blue spears and controlled them to stab them into the enormous crimson me crow''s wounded back!
However, the enormous crimson me crow had already prepared for it this time!
The enormous crimson me crow suddenly jumped and spun in the air!
Then its me wings pped all of the iing deep blue spears away!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Tang Li Xue''s newly created deep blue spears were broken to pieces under the crimson me crow''s wing attack!
Tang Li Xue really did not expect that the crimson me crow could still be so energetic despite criss-cross deep wounds on its back.
But the enormous crimson me crow did not stop there, Tang Li Xue suddenly felt the temperature of the crimson me crow''s body rising rapidly in only a few seconds!
Even though Tang Li Xue had high-temperature resistance, but it did not mean she waspletely immune to fire attacks!
Her [Extrasensory Perception] was screaming to warn Tang Li Xue of the iing life-threatening danger!
Tang Li Xue hastily let go of the deep blue spear''s handle that stabbed deep into the crimson me crow''s back!
Just when Tang Li Xue fell down from the crimson me crow''s back...
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The enormous crimson me crow exploded like a bright firework spraying dense crimson mes in all directions!
Tang Li Xue could not avoid this attack, so she could only do her best to defend against it!
[Sun Dragon ws]~!
[Deep Blue Fire Wall]~!
[Deep blue Thick Barrier]~!
[Phoenix Cloak]~!
Without any hesitation, Tang Li Xue hastily created fouryers of defense to block the violent crimson explosion!
A pair of [Sun Dragon ws] instantly shattered the moment when the explosion sted toward it!
[Deep Blue Fire Wall] was also broken in an instant!
The [Deep blue Thick Barrier]sted for a few moments, but it immediately filled with countless cracks, then crumbled apart under the destructive explosion!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as the crimson mes crashed hard onto her deep blue [Phoenix Cloak]!
Tang Li Xue was thrown off for more than a hundred meters because of the violent explosion.
Her [Phoenix Cloak] finally could not hold on anymore and scattered!
The residue of the crimson mes was still burning Tang Li Xue''s body, but her consciousness was still blurry, and she felt extremely dizzy right now.
When Tang Li Xue smelled a burning smell, she hastily rolled desperately on the sand to put off the crimson mes on her body.
After putting off the crimson mes, Tang Li Xue checked her condition and found out that she had received quite a lot of damage from it.
Around 40 percent of her body had been charred by the enormous crimson me crow''s mes.
Even all of her talismans that she made from tree bark had been burned to ashes.
Of course, the enormous crimson me crow''s condition was also quite bad after using such a suicidal move.
Not only did the deep criss-cross wounds on its back be even worse, but there were many new burn wounds on its entire enormous body.
Maybe it thought it could certainly kill Tang Li Xue with its suicidal attack, so it held nothing back.
In short, both Tang Li Xue and the enormous crimson me crow were in bad condition right now, and they might not be able to hold out for long anymore.
Right at this time, when Tang Li Xue and the enormous crimson me crow took this moment to quickly recover, another fox suddenly appeared between them!
It was actually a cute-looking small pink fox.
The small pink fox nced at Tang Li Xue and the enormous crimson me crow vigntly and observed their condition carefully for a few moments.
Then it sneered gleefully at their bad condition.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched in annoyance when she saw the small pink fox''s uncute mocking sneer.
"Do you really think you can win against us easily just because we hurt so badly?!" Tang Li Xue angrily said to the small pink fox.
CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
The pink fox''s small figure was suddenly shrouded with towering pink mes!
The oppressing aura it emitted from its small figure even faintly surpassed the previous enormous crimson me crow!
"Uhhh... All right, forget what I just said..." Tang Li Xue timidly took back her previous words.
Of course, it did not mean that Tang Li Xue was afraid of the small pink fox. On the contrary, Tang Li Xue''s mind was thinking fast to find a way to defeat this small pink fox.
Do not look Tang Li Xue''s situation was extremely bad right now, but this was only her deliberate act.
Tang Li Xue could actually use her [Quick Restore] divine ability at any time to recover all of her wounds, but she chose not to do that yet.
She nned to patiently wait for the right moment when these opponents of hers lowered their guard tounch a fatal counterattack on both of them at once.
The small pink fox''s mes swiftly solidified into several fire bolts, then shot toward Tang Li Xue and the enormous crimson me crow!
Tang Li Xue tried to dodge them by using [Sun Dragon sh], but the fire bolts suddenly changed their trajectory and chased after Tang Li Xue!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Several fire bolts stabbed into Tang Li Xue''s body from the right side, and her blood was spattering onto the sand!
The enormous crimson me crow also nned to avoid the fire bolts by flying swiftly upward, but its fate was the same as Tang Li Xue!
"It hurts! Damn it~! Its me attack can chase after the enemy like a homing missile?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in pain and uttered in surprise.
The small pink fox sneered at Tang Li Xue and the crimson me crow thenunched another attack on them!
This time, it threw dozens of me balls on both of them!
d¦Ásvel
Tang Li Xue thought she could not dodge the small pink fox''s attack just like before, so she decided to block it instead!
[Fire Wall] plus [Deep blue Thick Barrier]~!
Tang Li Xue set twoyers of defense to block the small pink fox''s me balls, but she underestimated the destructive power of attack!
Right before the dozens of me balls hit the [Fire Wall], they merged into one huge me ball all of a sudden!
But it was already toote for Tang Li Xue to react or set anotheryer of defense!
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Chapter 581: Crimson Flame Crows Transformation!
Chapter 581: Crimson me Crow''s Transformation!
The small pink fox''s merged me ball was surprisingly quite powerful!
Not only did it st apart Tang Li Xue''s [Fire Wall], but it also shattered her [Deep blue Thick Barrier]!
Thankfully, the explosion power had been greatly weakened when it hit Tang Li Xue''s body.
However, the pink mes spread on Tang Li Xue''s body and burned her once again.
Tang Li Xue quickly rolled furiously on the sand to extinguish the pink mes on her body.
After a few whiles, the pink mes on her body were finally extinguished, but her burn wounds became much worse.
Around 60 percent of Tang Li Xue''s body had been charred, and she even had difficulty walking properly with her four legs right now.
Tang Li Xue realized that this small pink fox could not be looked down upon at all.
The small pink fox''s mes might not be as powerful and lethal as the enormous crimson me crow''s mes or Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride, but surprisingly, its control over its pink mes was so much better than both of them!
Moreover, the small pink fox''s mes also have a special characteristic!
Poisonous!
Yes, the small pink fox''s mes could actually inflict lethal poison on its targets while burning them!
Luckily, Tang Li Xue waspletely immune to any poison because of her two bloodlines and [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s purifying effect.
Of course, she would not show it to her enemies and hurriedly act as if she was really poisoned.
"Cough, cough... This is... poison?! Damn you~!" Tang Li Xue coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood while saying in disbelief, then red at the small pink fox in rage.
The small pink fox did not get intimidated by Tang Li Xue''s re. It stared back at Tang Li Xue and sneered disdainfully at her.
Meanwhile, the enormous crimson me crow became even angrier right now!
Previously, the silver fox had bullied and killed its children, and now, the new pink fox came to bully it too!
It already had enough of this and decided to burn its life once again to gain more power!
BWWWOOOOOOSSSHHH~!
Out of everyone''s expectation, the enormous crimson me crow actually shrunk and became smaller all of a sudden!
"What does this fire crow''s big mommy want to do? But whatever it wants to do, it does not look good for me at all~!" Tang Li Xue said while frowning deeply in worry.
Despite its size getting smaller and smaller, the heat it radiated was getting more and more intense!
Even Tang Li Xue who was standing more than fifty meters away from the crimson me crow could clearly feel the terrifying pressure it was emitting!
Only the little pink fox''s expression did not change in the slightest. It was as if it did not worry about the crimson me crow''s transformation at all.
Tang Li Xue nced at the calm small pink fox and silently thought: ''Tsk~! It seems that I am not the only one who still has a trump card.''
''In this kind of situation, the first one who used their trump card is usually the first one to lose. That foolish fire crow mommy''s fate has already been decided. Now, it is only between me and that pink fox!'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Of course, it did not mean Tang Li Xue was looking down on the crimson me crow.
The crimson me crow would surely be the first one who died among them, but it would surely try its hardest to drag both Tang Li Xue and the little pink fox with it!
After a few seconds, the crimson me crow finally finished its transformation, and its size shrunk to the normal adult eagle size.
Tang Li Xue prepared herself to defend against the crimson me crow''s powerful attack, but who knows that the small pink foxunched its attack on the crimson me crow before it could do anything!
[Tyrant ze]~!
When the crimson me crow was transforming, the small pink fox actually umted its most powerful attacks in secret under the sand!
The pink mes were suddenly swirling violently under that sand and finally...
BOOOOOOOOMMMMM~!
Greatly exploded into a giant mushroom like an atomic bomb!
d¦Ásvel
Tang Li Xue had already sensed something extremely dangerous under the sand with her [Extrasensory Perception] a few seconds ago, and she hastily used [Sun Dragon sh] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to keep her distance from it as quickly as possible!
Even though Tang Li Xue had run away further, she was still affected by the great explosion and got thrown more than a hundred meters away because of the explosion shockwave!
Tang Li Xue coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood as her severe wounds got worse.
Both Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox thought that the crimson me crow would surely get killed under this great explosion.
But somethingpletely unexpected was happening right in front of their eyes!
The pink mes from the great explosion suddenly shrunk rapidly as if it was devoured rapidly by something!
"What the hell is happening?!" Tang Li Xue uttered in surprise and disbelief.
In a few moments, the pink mes from the great explosion disappeared, and the crimson me crow appeared againpletely unscathed!
The crimson mes around its body became even more radiant than before!
KKKKEEEEAAAAAAAKK~!
The crimson me crow pped its wings and chirped proudly toward the sky.
Then its small figure shrouded in radiant crimson mes suddenly disappeared from their vision!
''Sh*t~! This is not looking good~!'' Tang Li Xue eximed with a solemn expression.
BAAAAAAAANNGG~!
The small pink fox abruptly got struck heavily by something and sted several dozen meters away, while its blood sttered onto the sand!
When the small pink fox stood up, there were deep w wounds on its face and body!
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] sensed that something dangerous wasing toward her very fast, but before she could react, she also got struck heavily and thrown off tens of meters!
Tang Li Xue quickly stood up again vigntly whileining in anger: "Damn it~! It hurts so badly~!"
Tang Li Xue also received criss-cross deep w wounds on her body!
She could actually use her divine ability to stop the crimson me crow from moving around freely, but she held back and decided to wait for a little bit longer.
PPUUUUFFF~! PPUUUUFFF~!
The crimson me crow attacked the small pink fox with lightning speed again and left a few more deep w injuries on its face and body!
When the crimson me crow nned to attack Tang Li Xue for the second time, Tang Li Xue decided to use her [Mystic Whisper] to stop it!
"Stop moving~!" The [Mystic Whisper]''s voice prated straight into the crimson me crow''s consciousness, and it suddenly stopped right beside Tang Li Xue.
It actually cost quite a lot of energy to stop the crimson me crow with [Mystic Whisper], but Tang Li Xue did not have time to regret it right now and immediately decided tounch a fatal attack toward it!
Since any me elemental attack seemed to be not effective against the current crimson me crow, Tang Li Xue decided to use one of her most destructive martial arts moves instead!
[Tiger Roaring sh]~!
An imposing image of a fierce White Tiger appeared behind Tang Li Xue and roared out loud to the sky!
ROOOOOOOOAAAARRR~!
The deafening tiger roar reverberated in the crimson me crow''s mind and stunned it for a few more moments, then the imposing image of the fierce white tiger shed its ws toward the crimson me crow!
PPUUUUFFF~! PPUUUUFFF~!
The fierce white tiger''s ws managed to tear its wings and cut deep criss-cross wounds on the crimson me crow''s body!
Just as Tang Li Xue felt delighted in defeating the crimson me crow, the small pink fox suddenlyunched a sneaky attack at both of them from behind!
[me Break Javelin]~!
Two pink javelins shot swiftly toward Tang Li Xue and the crimson me crow!
Based on her previous battle experience, Tang Li Xue realized that in the battle between the me elemental with powerful offense power, the one who defends usually loses, so she decided tounch an attack to neutralize it instead!
[Fire Bomb]~!
Two pink me javelins crashed onto the deep blue me bomb!
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Three of them exploded at once before they could reach their targets!
Meanwhile, the severely wounded crimson me crow was actuallypletely recovered in only a few seconds!
But the crimson me crow vigntly flew further from Tang Li Xue.
It seems the previous [Mystic Whisper] made the crimson me crow feel threatened.
Since it did not dare to approach Tang Li Xue carelessly, the crimson me crow decided to finish off the small pink fox first!
[Scattered me Feathers]~!
The crimson fire crow rapidly pped its wings from above and shot so many crimson feathers toward the small pink fox!
While the small pink foxunched tens of pink fireballs at the crimson fire crow!
The tens of pink fireballs suddenly merged into one huge fireball and crashed onto so many crimson feathers!
BBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue felt pleased with the current situation and chose to give some help to the crimson fire crow by attacking the small pink fox!
"Come here~! My Almighty Divine... Fly Swatter~!" Tang Li Xue uttered with an excited tone.
Tang Li Xue created a huge fly swatter from her me of Pride and [Energy Maniption], then controlled it to fly swiftly toward the small pink fox!
Before the small pink fox could have enough time to react, Tang Li Xue''s huge divine fly swatter already swung at it from above!
BANG~!
Without any mercy, Tang Li Xue kept pping her huge divine fly swatter toward the small pink fox who was already buried in the sand!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Even the crimson me crow instantly became dumbfounded at what Tang Li Xue had done.
Chapter 582: Trap And Pretense!
Chapter 582: Trap And Pretense!
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue''s huge divine fly swatter once more proved to be more effective than what she had expected.
The huge fly swatter''s strikes might not be lethal enough to kill the small pink fox, but its heavy p could stun the small pink fox for a few moments.
Continuous heavy ps from the huge fly swatter even managed to keep the small pink fox extremely dizzy and could not do anything for quite some time!
The crimson me crow wanted tounch another attack on Tang Li Xue, but it was very wary of the huge fly swatter in Tang Li Xue''s control so it decided to wait and see for a while.
Meanwhile, the small pink fox finally lost its temper as Tang Li Xue kept pounding it with her huge divine fly swatter!
BBOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The huge fly swatter exploded to pieces when the small pink fox shot its [me Break Javelin] at it!
The small pink fox red angrily at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with intense killing intent.
But Tang Li Xue waspletely undaunted. On the contrary, sheughed mockingly at the small pink fox''s battered and bruised appearance.
"Pffft, hahahahaha~! You look even more colorful right now with new red, ck, and blue colors! Your current appearance is very suitable for you as an ugly poisonous fox~!" Tang Li Xue said to the small pink fox whileughing out loud.
The small pink fox became even more furious and wanted tounch frenzied attacks on Tang Li Xue!
But before it could do that, the crimson me crow already took this chance to attack both the small pink fox and Tang Li Xue first!
[Scattered me Feathers]~!
The crimson fire crow rapidly pped its wings and shot so many explosive crimson feathers at the small pink fox and Tang Li Xue!
The small pink fox immediately shot several [me Break Javelins] to the explosive crimson feathers that were flying at it!
However, Tang Li Xue suddenly made an unexpected move!
Tang Li Xue hastily created a pair of deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back even though she still could not fly in this violent sandstorm weather!
Then she rapidly pped her deep blue [Phoenix Wings] while saying in an angry tone: "Do you think only you can use that move?! Look at this~!"
[Scattered me Feathers]~!
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue also shot so many explosive deep blue me feathers from her [Phoenix Wings] right now!
After watching the crimson fire crow do it several times, Tang Li Xue suddenly wondered why she could not do the same thing using her [Phoenix Wings]?!
Her hunch proved to be correct as she sessfully copied the crimson fire crow''s skill even without using her [Mirror of the Moon].
BBBOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s deep blue me feathers and the small pink fox''s [me Break Javelins] shed violently with the crimson fire crow''s [Scattered me Feathers]!
When their me attacks exploded and neutralized each other, the crimson fire crow already took the chance when the small pink fox had notpletely recovered yet to unleash a lethal swift attack on it!
The crimson fire crow''s figure suddenly disappeared as it shed toward the small pink fox and brandished its sharp ws at it!
However, the small pink fox seemed to have already learned from its previous mistake, and it even set a trap for the crimson fire crow right now!
nd¦Ásn¦Ïv¦Ål
The flying crimson fire crow actually got entangled by sharp but thin wires made from the small pink fox''s mes the moment it shed toward it!
The small pink fox would not miss this only chance as it unleashed a merciless rain of [me Break Javelins] on the entangled crimson fire crow!
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
This rain of [me Break Javelins] should not be enough to finish off the flying crimson fire crow, but unfortunately, the flying crimson fire crow itself was actually run out of time.
Even after using the sacrifice skill to burn out its life to obtain more power, it still failed to drag either the small pink fox or Tang Li Xue to die with it.
The crimson fire crow was really unwilling to die just like this, so it used itsst ounce of strength to ignite its entire body and create thest suicidal explosion!
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] sensed unusual dangerous fluctuation from the entangled crimson fire crow, so she hastily used [Sun Dragon sh] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to get away farther from it!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Despite already running quite far away from it, Tang Li Xue still got thrown off back for more than fifty meters because of the rolling shockwave from the great explosion.
Tang Li Xue slowly stood up while coughing out several mouthfuls of blood.
She stared nervously in the direction of the great explosion while hoping that both the crimson fire crow and the small pink fox would get killed by this great explosion.
Unfortunately, her wish was unfulfilled since the small pink fox slowly crawled out from the sea of crimson mes with a body full of severe wounds.
''This is my chance~! Before it recovers, I may be able to kill it if Ind a deadly blow on it right at this moment!'' Tang Li Xue thought.
But Tang Li Xue still did not dare to approach the small pink fox carelessly after she saw what had happened to the crimson fire crow before.
Tang Li Xue pped her deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back rapidly andunched a long-range attack at the small pink fox from afar!
[Scattered me Feathers]~!
Dense deep blue me feathers were flying toward the weak-looking small pink fox!
Unexpectedly, the weak-looking small pink fox changed its posture and stood steadily as itunched several dozens of [me Break Javelins] to meet Tang Li Xue''s [Scattered me Feathers]!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The small pink fox''s [me Break Javelins] exploded when they shed against Tang Li Xue''s [Scattered me Feathers] and canceled each other!
"Tsk~! I knew it was only a trick~! If I was not careful, I might have already fallen into its trap like that stupid fire crow''s mommy!" Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in disdain.
After the small pink fox knew that Tang Li Xue did not fall for its trick and trap, it stopped its pretense.
Its pink mes shrouded its entire small body, and the severe wounds all over its small body started recovering rapidly!
After a dozen seconds, the small pink foxpletely recovered without any injuries on its body!
Tang Li Xue was dumbfounded and dropped her jaw in disbelief.
''What the hell is that?! It also has [Quick Restore] divine ability?! No, it only looks simr to my [Quick Restore] but it could only recover all of its injuries.'' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind.
Just as Tang Li Xue had guessed, the small pink fox''s ability could only recover all of its wounds rapidly, while Tang Li Xue''s [Quick Restore] not only could recover all of her wounds but could also cure all debuffs, curses, and bacsh effects.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm herself.
Since the crimson fire crow was no longer here, so this became a life-or-death duel between Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox!
Just when both Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox thought so and prepared tounch another attack on each other, something unexpected actually happened!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The surrounding sand was suddenly trembling violently!
"What the hell is..." Tang Li Xue muttered with a solemn expression, but before she could finish her words, her [Extrasensory Perception] was sensing a great dangering at her!
Tang Li Xue hastily used her [Sun Dragon sh] in reflex!
BBBBAAAAAAAANNNG~!
An enormous ck sharp spike suddenly shot out from the location where Tang Li Xue stood before!
If Tang Li Xue was still there, the enormous ck sharp spike would have already crashed into her!
After that, something huge was actually crawling out from below the enormous ck sharp spike!
"Holy sh*t~! What the hell is that?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in shock.
Surprisingly, it was actually a gigantic ck sand scorpion!
The previous enormous ck sharp spike was the gigantic ck sand scorpion''s stinger!
The small pink fox felt that the current situation was not favorable for it, so it decided to quickly run away from there!
But how could the recently awakened gigantic ck sand scorpion let its prey go that easily?!
The surrounding sandstorm raged even more violently all of a sudden, and it began to spin faster and faster forming a giant cage to confine Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox inside it!
[Sandstorm Typhoon Domain]~!
"Damn it~! This hellish treasure game is too difficult~!" Tang Li Xueined in frustration.
Right at this moment, the Sudden-Death Match''s every ten minutes detection rule got triggered once again.
From it, Tang Li Xue no longer sensed the presence of the third fox, so there was only herself and the small pink fox remaining in this treasure game.
If one of the two of them dies, then thest one who survived would be the winner of this treasure game!
Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox red at each other as both of them realized this.
This was the real Death Match between the two of them!
Meanwhile, the gigantic ck sand scorpion already swung both of its ws at Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox!
BBBAAAAAAAAAANNNNG~!
Both Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox skillfully dodged the gigantic ck sand scorpion''s ws while dashing swiftly toward each other!
Chapter 583: Tang Li Xues Most Comfortable Moment!
Chapter 583: Tang Li Xue''s Most Comfortable Moment!
The small pink fox hastilyunched a dozen [me Break Javelins] at Tang Li Xue while sprinting toward her!
Tang Li Xue also unleashed her [Fiery Bullets] to shoot down all of the small pink fox''s [me Break Javelins]!
BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~!
The [me Break Javelins] exploded the moment when they shed with the [Fiery Bullets].
nd¦Ásn¦Ïv¦Ål
But Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox were already so close to each other, and both of them pounced swiftly at each other!
[Sun Dragon ws]~!
[me Cutting Wheels]~!
While Tang Li Xue released her pair of [Sun Dragon ws] to tear apart the small pink fox in melee battle, the small pink fox also condensed four sharp wheels from its pink mes!
CLAAAANG~!
[Sun Dragon ws] collided violently against the four [me Cutting Wheels] until they made a harsh nging sound, but all of them were thrown back several meters instead.
Under the control of Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox, a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and four [me Cutting Wheels] were fighting back and forth at high speed.
However, Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox were not idle at all.
Tang Li Xue swiftly used [Sun Dragon sh] to instantly get closer to the small pink fox then she unleashed her [me Tiger Roaring ws] toward it!
The small pink fox was already wary of Tang Li Xue since the very beginning, but it did not n to dodge Tang Li Xue''s attack.
On the contrary, the small pink fox alsounched its powerful attack on Tang Li Xue from the melee range!
[Ember Fox Slicing ws]~!
Different from Tang Li Xue''s [me Tiger Roaring ws] which has dangerous destructive power, the small pink fox''s [Ember Fox Slicing ws] focused on extreme sharpness!
ROOOOOAAAAAAARR~!
The image of a majestic White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes shed its ws at the small pink fox, while the small pink fox waved its little ws to counter it!
The small pink fox''s ws unleashed extremely sharp me des capable of cutting any obstacle!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
[me Tiger Roaring ws]''s terrifying destruction power shed head-on against [Ember Fox Slicing ws]''s extreme sharpness from a very close distance!
Surprisingly, the [Ember Fox Slicing ws] could cut through [me Tiger Roaring ws] easily, but the [me Tiger Roaring ws]''s destructive power exploded and crushed the [Ember Fox Slicing ws] to pieces!
It was actually a draw!
Both Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox were very surprised that their strongest melee offense skill was canceled against each other.
''Tsk~! This damn cunning fox is unexpectedly quite strong~! Should I use one of my few trump cards? No... This is not the time yet.'' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind as she carefully measured the timing.
Tang Li Xue actually has a few more trump cards she has not used yet, but she needs to make sure that the small pink fox will definitely be killed the moment she unleashes them.
If she failed to kill the small pink fox after unleashing all of the trump cards, then it would be her who would surely be killed by the small pink fox!
''Sigh... If this damn pink fox does not have an instant healing-type divine ability, my [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] would be enough to burn it to death~!'' Tang Li Xue grumbled in her heart.
Using [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] costs a lot of energy. If Tang Li Xue used it carelessly, and the small pink fox only needed to fully recover itself in an instant using its healing-type divine ability, then she would only waste her energy and stamina for nothing.
Nheless, Tang Li Xue did not n to let the small pink fox take any breath, so sheunched a follow-up attack from close range again!
[Sun Dragon Fangs]~!
A huge dragon''s head condensed from the deep blue mes of pride instantly appeared above Tang Li Xue, and it was swiftly biting at the small pink fox!
The small pink fox did not hesitate and unleashed its [Ember Fox Slicing ws] once more!
Extremely sharp pink me des shot out from its ws and easily cut the huge dragon''s head!
BBOOOOMM~!
The huge dragon''s head exploded and threw off both Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox for a few meters.
Meanwhile, the gigantic ck sand scorpion became angry after Tang Li Xue and the small pink foxpletely ignored it for some time.
The gigantic ck sand scorpion opened its mouth andunched an attack on both of them!
[ck Acid Fog]~!
The gigantic ck sand scorpion sprayed arge amount of ck gas from its mouth at Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox!
The [ck Acid Fog] spread around extremely fast, and it was already toote for both Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox to avoid it, so the two of them could only try to defend against it.
[Deep blue Thick Barrier] plus [Phoenix Cloak]~!
Tang Li Xue hastily set up twoyers of defense, while the small pink fox also created a pink me barrier from its mes.
CCRRRRSSSHH~!
The moment the [ck Acid Fog] touched Tang Li Xue''s [Deep blue Thick Barrier], it made a horrible sizzling sound.
The [Deep blue Thick Barrier] was rapidly corroded by the [ck Acid Fog], and it probably would notst for long before it melted.
The gigantic ck sand scorpion was not patient enough to wait for their barrier to be melted by its [ck Acid Fog], and it immediatelyunched another attack on both of them using its poisonous ws and stingers!
Tang Li Xue activated [Wings Of Freedom] to increase her speed significantly and used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge the gigantic ck sand scorpion''s w attack!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
The gigantic ck sand scorpion kept attacking Tang Li Xue and the small pink fox with its poisonous ws and stingers even after both of them managed to avoid its first w attack!
''Damn it~! This giant bug is so annoying~! This is really not looking good... My energy and stamina will notst long at this rate~!'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind with a solemn expression.
After thinking for a while, Tang Li Xue devised a rather risky n, but she still thought that it was worth a try.
She immediately carried out her risky n without any dy.
Just when the gigantic ck sand scorpion pounded its huge poisonous w toward Tang Li Xue, she immediately activated her [Spider Scorpion Transformation]!
BANG~!
Tang Li Xue sessfully dodged the huge poisonous w attack by moving to the left side using her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
Then she swiftly shot the thin spider webs onto the huge poisonous w!
When the gigantic ck sand scorpion raised its huge poisonous w, Tang Li Xue got pulled by the thin spider webs stuck on the huge poisonous w and got thrown upward!
After she felt that she was high enough, Tang Li Xue immediately created an umbre by using her deep blue me of Pride plus [Energy Maniption]!
Tang Li Xue might not be able to fly with her [Phoenix Wings] in this violent sandstorm, but she could hover above the gigantic ck sand scorpion using this trick!
Tang Li Xue dispersed the umbre after hovering for a while and sessfullynded right on the gigantic ck sand scorpion''s back.
"Hehehehe~! It is my turn now, big guy~!" Tang Li Xueughed evilly as she unleashed many thin spider webs and spread them around the gigantic ck sand scorpion''s back.
[Essence Devouring Technique]~!
With so many thin spider webs as the medium, Tang Li Xue used her [Essence Devouring Technique] to greedily absorb the energy from the gigantic ck sand scorpion!
"Uaaahhh~! Sofortable~!" Tang Li Xue moanedfortably as the warm energy poured into her body.
Meanwhile, the gigantic ck sand scorpion did not think too much about Tang Li Xue''s sudden disappearance since it already used its [Sandstorm Typhoon Domain] to cover this entire area, so no one could get away from this area.
Because it could not find Tang Li Xue for now, it decided to keep attacking the small pink fox instead.
The small pink fox was extremely frustrated facing the gigantic ck sand scorpion.
Different from the previous enormous crimson me crow, this gigantic ck sand scorpion has a very thick carapace covering its entire body.
The small pink fox alreadyunched many attacks on the gigantic ck sand scorpion, but any of its attacks could not even break through the gigantic ck sand scorpion''s extremely thick carapace.
But because its extremely thick carapace protected its entire body too well, it also made the gigantic ck sand scorpion fail to sense that Tang Li Xue was standing behind its back and kept sucking its energy.
Tang Li Xue felt this might be her mostfortable moment in the Foxes Hunting Festival, and she hoped that it wouldst for a little longer, at least until her energy was fully recovered.
Unfortunately, her wish might note true.
Because at this time, the small pink fox felt that its energy and stamina would notst much longer and decided to unleash its most powerful attack on the gigantic ck sand scorpion!
[Tyrant ze]~!
The pink mes were suddenly swirling violently under the sand below the gigantic ck sand scorpion!
BOOOOOOOOMMMMM~!
A great explosion created a giant pink me mushroom like an atomic bomb!
Even the gigantic ck sand scorpion''s heavy and huge body was sted into the air for tens of meters!
But the gigantic ck sand scorpion was stillpletely unharmed even by the small pink fox''s most powerful attack.
The small pink fox had fallen into despair since its energy was already exhausted, but it could not find Tang Li Xue to kill her right now, nor it could defeat this gigantic ck sand scorpion.
Chapter 584: Being Targeted!
Chapter 584: Being Targeted!
The gigantic ck sand scorpion took this chance when the small pink fox waspletely exhausted to attack it with the poisonous stinger!
PUUUFFF~!
The small pink fox did not even have any more energy to move so the gigantic ck sand scorpion''s poisonous stinger easily crushed it to pieces.
The small pink fox turned into a group of white light and disappeared.
.....
Just when Tang Li Xue rxedly sat on the gigantic ck sand scorpion''s back and happily drained its energy with her [Essence Devouring Technique], her vision suddenly became blurry.
Tang Li Xue blinked and opened her topaz blue eyes again, but she was no longer on the gigantic ck sand scorpion''s back anymore.
It seems she had already won the treasure game and got sent out from it.
"Eh? This is... I have already returned back to Treasure Ind?! So fast?! Tsk~! Why did this treasure game end so quickly just when I was having so much fun sucking up the energy from that big scorpion..." Tang Li Xue muttered in displeasure.
Tang Li Xue was not satisfied yet since her energy had not fully recovered yet right now.
"Sigh... Forget it~! At least my energy has already recovered for more than two-thirds." Tang Li Xue shook her head and reached out her paws to take the treasure box in front of her.
But suddenly, her [Extrasensory Perception] gave her a warning of the dangering from the sand beneath her feet!
Tang Li Xue swiftly used her [Flickering sh Step] to retreat back after she grabbed the treasure box with her paws!
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The sand instantly hardened like metal and turned into sharp spikes!
If Tang Li Xue dodged toote for even half a second, she would surely turn into a fox sieve by this attack!
"Damn it ~! Who the hell dares to sneak attack me?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fang and shouted in anger.
A beige-colored fox jumped out from beneath the sand.
However, it was clearly not alone since Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] detected six other foxesing closer quickly toward her.
Tang Li Xue''s blood pressure exploded, and she wanted to scold the beige-colored fox for its shamelessness.
Before she could do it, Tang Li Xue suddenly realized the eerie red light shone inside the beige-colored fox''s eyes.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as her hunch felt something extremely wrong.
She immediately decided to not entangle with these foxes and quickly ran away from here!
Tang Li Xue condensed a pair of deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back and hastily flew away from there!
But how could the beige-colored fox let Tang Li Xue get away so easily from it?!
The surrounding sand was churning violently all of a sudden, and they turned into several stic whips!
Several stic whips bound Tang Li Xue''s body tightly just when she pped its deep blue [Phoenix Wings] and soared upward!
Tang Li Xue red at the beige-colored fox in fury and pped its deep blue [Phoenix Wings] toward it!
[Scattered me Feathers]~!
nd¦Ásv¦Ål m
Dense deep blue me feathers were flying toward the beige-colored fox in that instant!
However, the beige-colored fox did not flinch at all.
It skillfully controlled the sand right in front of it, and swiftly created a hardened wall!
BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~!
Dense deep blue me feathers exploded as they shed against the hardened sand wall!
The hardened sand wall was filled with cracks, but Tang Li Xue''s [Scattered me Feathers] had failed to break through it.
Right at this moment, the other six foxes already arrived at their ce.
When Tang Li Xue saw eerie crimson light shining inside their eyes just like the beige-colored fox, she immediately knew that her previous hunch was right.
"These damn annoying mind-controlled foxes~! Why the hell are they still persistently targeting me again and again?! Am I offending your master or something?!" Tang Li Xueined angrily.
Tang Li Xue knew that she could no longer waste her time here, or these annoying mind-controlled foxes would gang up on her and exhaust her to death.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and woke up Yaya that still resting in her system space.
*Ding!
[The user has entered perfect synchronization with Yaya and Phoenix of Pride!]
[Entering War Goddess Mode!]
Meng Yue already warned her to not use this [War Goddess Mode] too much or her beast core would get shattered sooner orter, but she really could not help it.
Under the siege of these seven pretty powerful foxes, she would not be able to get away that easily without her [War Goddess Mode].
[Cyclone Storm]~!
A huge pir of the violent hurricane was instantly scattering the surrounding sand and blowing away those seven foxes!
Tang Li Xue hastily took this chance to fly away from here with her full speed!
However, one of the seven foxes could actually react extremely fast in this chaotic situation and immediately obstruct Tang Li Xue before she could get away.
[Wind Bind]~!
The surrounding wind formed an invisible barricade to iste Tang Li Xue!
"You dare to y with wind against me?! Are you sure about that?!" Tang Li Xue sneered mockingly.
[Dissonance Melody]~!
This [Dissonance Melody] could not only make all of the foes in a certain radius feel sore eyes and dizzy, thus decreasing their uracy by a lot, but it also made the surrounding wind be extremely chaotic, so it would decrease the power of the opponent''s wind elemental ability by more than 75%.
This skill was simply a nemesis for all creatures with wind elemental abilities!
The wind fox started to fly unsteadily under the effect of [Dissonance Melody].
Taking advantage of this chaotic moment, Tang Li Xue immediately activated another two of Yaya''s skills!
[Traceless Wind Cover]~! (Became invisible by creating a wind cloak with 50% damage reduction effect)
[Wind Guardian Blessing]~! (Increase overall speed by 50%, and grant the user auto-dodge effect)
After turning invisible and using [Art of Concealment] topletely hide her presence, Tang Li Xue easily slipped away from there and flew further away from the desert area.
Since Tang Li Xue felt that the owner of this Crimson Skies Domain was always targeting her for no reason, she nned to get out from the radius of this Crimson Skies Domain as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, that was easy to say but extremely hard to do.
Because this Crimson Skies Domain might at least cover a tenth of the Treasure Ind, while this Treasure Ind was actually as big as a continent, and it might even bigger than Lightwind Continent.
"I am sure that the owner of this Crimson Skies Domain should be another Apex Predator Fox. Damn monster~!" Tang Li Xue muttered in frustration.
But Tang Li Xue must admit that the owner of this Crimson Skies Domain should be another brilliant genius on par with Lei Qian''er.
Just like her [Mystic Whisper], the effect of all mind-controlling divine abilities would decrease against any opponents with a higher Spirit stat than the user.
Rather than focusing on controlling the minds of the stronger opponents with higher Spirit stat, the owner of this Crimson Skies Domain clearly chose to focus on magnifying the domain radius, so it could control more targets at once.
Tang Li Xue hated to admit it, but it was truly a brilliant decision in her opinion.
Since you could not win in a one-on-one battle, then you just need to bring the sea of mind-controlled targets to fight a war of attrition.
Imagine if the owner of this Crimson Skies Domain participated in the war against the human race in the future, and it suddenly controlled all of the human armies with weaker cultivation than it...
Tang Li Xue shuddered in horror and muttered: "What a horrible ability... The user must be another future pir of the fox race other than Meng Yue and Lei Qian''er."
Tang Li Xue finally understood the difference between mere predator foxes and those monstrous apex predator foxes.
If the predator foxes were the geniuses who could win against the opponents at the same level as them, then the monstrous apex predator foxes could easily turn the tide of the war by simply participating in it.
But Tang Li Xue did not feel discouraged at all.
On the contrary, her topaz blue eyes were shining in excitement and yearning.
Because she could faintly feel it, the moment when she took another step forward and evolved to [Rare] grade or Beast Lord level, it would be the moment when she also stepped into the threshold of apex predator level!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her restless mood while muttering with a tone filled with confidence: "I need to be more patient... If I improve myself step by step, I will certainly reach their level sooner orter with the help of my system!"
"For now, I should find a safe ce to rest before the violent bacsh from [War Goddess Mode]es." Tang Li Xue whispered to herself as she activated her [Spider Scorpion Transformation].
After flying swiftly for ten minutes or so, Tang Li Xuended on the mountain area and nned to dig a deep underground hiding tunnel.
But who knew that the moment shended on the top of the mountain, her [Extrasensory Perception] immediately sensed another iing danger!
Tang Li Xue hastily used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step] to retreat farther in an instant!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The tall mountain suddenly shook violently!
Tang Li Xue quickly pped the transparent fairy wings on her back and soared into the sky.
Tang Li Xue''s expression changed into dread when she realized that the mountain was actually an enormous stone fox bigger than even the previous gigantic ck sand scorpion!
As she saw eerie crimson light shining from the enormous stone fox''s huge eyes, Tang Li Xue''s body shuddered even more.
Chapter 585: Hide and Seek!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in aggravation.
However, she still rationally chose not to confront the enormous stone fox and flew away quickly from there before the enormous stone fox could attack her.
The feeling of being hunted made Tang Li Xue feel very upset, but there was nothing she could do about it.
It was as if an invisible hand slowly reached her neck and strangled her until she could not breathe.
The suffocating feeling became even more intense when Tang Li Xue faintly sensed the Crimson Skies Domain was watching over her every movement and slowly drove her to the corner.
Just as Tang Li Xue was flying swiftly in the sky, her body suddenly dived down at breakneck speed as if something heavy was pushing her down!
"Damn it~! My body became so heavy all of a sudden! This is... Gravity-type divine ability!" Tang Li Xue eximed in a solemn tone.
Surprisingly, the enormous stone fox actually has Gravity-type divine ability!
Luckily, Tang Li Xue was currently still in her [War Goddess Mode], so she had many ways to counter it.
[Shockwave Impact]~!
Tang Li Xue''s falling speed slowed down a lot, but that was not enough, so she used [Hurricane Barrier] as a cushion before she crashed onto the ground.
Meanwhile, the enormous stone fox had already jumped toward Tang Li Xue!
Because it used its [Gravity Control] to make its gigantic body much lighter, the enormous stone fox could move as swiftly as any agility-type fox!
The enormous stone fox waved its paw at Tang Li Xue, and its paw''s weight suddenly increased by a dozen times!
Tang Li Xue easily dodged its paw attack by using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus Yaya''s [Breezing Step]!
BOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The enormous stone fox''s extremely heavy paw struck the ground, creating a violent earthquake and rolling shockwave.
Even Tang Li Xue was blown away by several tens of meters just by the rolling shockwave.
It made Tang Li Xue realize how powerful this enormous stone fox was!
This enormous stone fox clearly moved faster than a civet cat with its gigantic body, but its every strike was heavier than a mountain!
If the previous heavy paw strike managed to hit Tang Li Xue''s small fragile body, she would have already turned into a fox jerky by now!
Tang Li Xue no longer hesitated andunched a counterattack against the enormous stone fox!
[Scattered me Feathers]~!
Tang Li Xue rapidly pped the deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back and shot dense deep blue me feathers on the enormous stone fox!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Well... All of [Scattered me Feathers] perfectly hit the enormous stone fox, but the enormous stone fox did not even feel itch by Tang Li Xue''s attack.
"Damn big stupid boulder, then how about this?! [Fire Bomb]~!" Tang Li Xue angrily shouted as she threw apressed deep blue [Fire Bomb] at the enormous stone fox!
The enormous stone fox did not even have any intention to avoid it and charged swiftly toward Tang Li Xue instead!
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The explosion of thepression [Fire Bomb] was much greater than usual since Tang Li Xue was much stronger in her [War Goddess Mode], but it still did not affect the enormous stone fox at all!
The enormous stone fox arrived right before Tang Li Xue and unleashed rapid attacks using its front paws and three tails!
Moreover, each of its attacks was more powerful and faster than the previous heavy paw attack!
BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~!
Tang Li Xue used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step] and shuttled to the right and left in a zigzag pattern to carefully dodge all of the attacks!
Honestly, even Tang Li Xue might not be able to dodge all of the enormous stone fox attacks without relying on Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes].
([Wind God''s Eyes]: A pair of eyes blessed by the Wind God itself. making these pair of eyes capable of seeing through any kind of movement no matter how fast or deceptive it is and predicting the next few moves urately.)
''This huge boulder fox is extremely strong! It is definitely a top-tier predator-level fox! I cannot continue to waste my time with it like this! My [War Goddes Mode]''s duration is almost run out! I must get away from it quickly!'' Tang Li Xue decided in her mind.
Tang Li Xue always thought her [War Goddes Mode] was extremely powerful, but this was the first time that her [War Goddes Mode] waspletely useless when facing an opponent.
This enormous stone fox possessed agility not much lower than her in [War Goddes Mode], but both its strength and defense could easilypletely overwhelm her.
[Multiple Wind Clones] plus [Water Mirage]~!
By using both skills at the same time, Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure suddenly split into hundreds of clones, and all of them began to run swiftly in different directions!
Unfortunately, before they could run far, the enormous stone fox already activated its powerful skill to crush all of them at once!
[Hundred Times Gravity Press]~!
All of Tang Li Xue''s clones suddenly pressed onto the ground and were crushed by the heavy gravity!
POFF~! POFF~! POFF~! POFF~! POFF~!
Half of the clones shattered into a puddle of water, while the other half was crushed into the wind and scattered.
The enormous stone fox looked around for a while, but it actually failed to find the real Tang Li Xue!
The enormous stone fox walked around the area to search for the real Tang Li Xue and found a small deep hole behind the bushes instead.
Then it roared out loud in anger to the sky.
.....
The red-haired sexy girl slowly opened her seductive crimson eyes and muttered with a smile on her mesmerizing face: "What a slippery little toy~!"
"But no matter where you run, you will only be dancing around in the palm of my hand as long as you are still in my domain~!" The red-haired sexy girl said with a yful tone.
The red-haired sexy girl moved her hand and finger around as if she was ying chess against someone.
"Go, my cute little pawns~! Corner that toy even more for me~! I want to see how long it can run away around~! Hehehehe..." The red-haired sexy girl giggled as if she looked forward to how Tang Li Xue would move or react next.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue secretly activated [Spider Scorpion Transformation] before, and currently, she was still digging a deep underground tunnel to get away from the enormous stone fox.
"All right, I should be already hundreds of miles away from that stupid big boulder fox." Tang Li Xue muttered while breathing heavily in exhaustion.
It seems the [War Goddess Mode]''s violent bacsh had already begun to affect her.
Tang Li Xue did not even have time to consume the precious treasure inside the treasure box.
She immediately canceled the [War Goddess Mode] and put the unconscious Little Yaya into her system space.
While the deep blue Phoenix of Pride already entered her Dantian and rested under the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] to quickly recover itself.
Tang Li Xuey down while writhing in extreme pain.
She did not only suffer unimaginable tearing pain all over her body but even her breath was getting weaker and weaker.
Her consciousness became blurry, but she hastily gritted her fangs and bit her tongue to stay sober.
Her hunch felt that she was still in danger.
Even the faint feeling of being watched was still haunting her.
Tang Li Xue immediately activated her [Quick Restore] divine ability to cure the [War Goddess Mode]''s violent bacsh effect.
Her breath instantly became stronger again and returned to normal.
All the burn wounds and injuries on her body werepletely healed in the blink of an eye.
Even the parts of her body that had been bald because of being burned by mes before had recovered to normal too.
The painful tearing pain all over her body was still persistent for some time, but it was not the time for her to whine around about it, so Tang Li Xue continued to dig the tunnel.
Tang Li Xue was quite sure that the one who kept watching her and targeting her was the owner of the Crimson Skies Domain, so traveling right under the Crimson Skies Domain was clearly a bad choice.
Her only option right now was to travel underground just like she was currently doing.
Just when Tang Li Xue felt she would be safe traveling through the underground tunnel...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The ground suddenly shook violently!
"Damn it~! This does not look good at all~!" Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
Tang Li Xue nced at the treasure box in her grasp.
She actually nned to save this to feed Little Loki after it woke upter, but it seems she better consume it herself to quickly recover some of her energy and stamina.
Before the underground tunnel copsed, Tang Li Xue hastily put the treasure box on the ground and opened it.
She found a golden fruit that emitted high temperature inside the treasure box.
When she took out the scorching golden fruit from the treasure box, the deep blue Phoenix of Pride flew out again from her Dantian and swallowed the scorching golden fruit in one gulp.
Then it entered her Dantian again and went back to sleep under the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] to digest the scorching golden fruit.
Its moves were extremely smooth as if it had already done that so many times... Or, well... Yes, it really had already done it so many times.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
"Damn you, egoistic greedy dumb bird~!" Tang Li Xue shouted in extreme fury as the underground tunnel started to copse.
Chapter 586: Meeting With Acquaintance!
Chapter 586: Meeting With Acquaintance!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Tang Li Xue really wanted to scold the Phoenix of Pride and teach it a harsh unforgettable lesson, but it was clearly not the right time to do that since the underground tunnel had trembled even more violently.
Tang Li Xue hastily dug upward to the surface with her [Spider Scorpion Transformation].
When Tang Li Xue jumped out to the surface, several mind-controlled foxes already waited for her and immediatelyunched attacks on her!
Yaya was still in an unconscious state because of the bacsh from [War Goddess Mode], while the Phoenix of Pride fell into a deep sleep under the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] to digest the scorching golden fruit.
So, Tang Li Xue could no longer enter [Divine Possession] mode or [Perfect Assimtion] mode for now.
"It seems I can only rely on myself from now on...Tsk~! But these bast*rds are really annoying~!" Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance.
[Mother Earth''s Gift], [Earth Protection Wall]~!
With subtle earth control from [Mother Earth''s Gift] divine ability, Tang Li Xue easily created a solid stone wall to block all attacks from those foxes!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Those foxes did not give up and kept spamming attacks mercilessly at the solid stone wall for one minute or so until the solid stone wall copsed.
However, Tang Li Xue had already vanished, and they could not find her anymore there.
Yes, Tang Li Xue already activated her [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment] after she erected the [Earth Protection Wall], and then she hastily got away from there as fast as she could before those foxes could find her.
"I must get out from the radius of this Crimson Skies Domain as soon as possible~! But... Which direction should I run to?" Tang Li Xue muttered in confusion.
As far as Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes could see, this Crimson Skies Domain seemed to cover the entire sky, and she could not even determine the boundaries of this Crimson Skies Domain clearly.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and murmured while thinking deeply: "Oh, well... Let''s just wander around randomly and see how they act first for now. If I really cannot hide or run away from them anymore, at worst I can enter another treasure game to avoid their chase."
Tang Li Xue wanted to test if the owner of this Crimson Skies Domain still could find her while she was in [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment].
But she found the answer soon after only traveled for a few hundred miles...
BWOOOOOSSSHHH~!
Tang Li Xue was almost swallowed by a sudden violent blizzard!
Her entire vision was covered in white color, and she could not even see anything.
The snow had piled up so high, and Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure was drowned inside the thick snow pile.
"Hisss~! It is so cold~! All of my limbs are almost freezing~! Why the hell was there a sudden violent blizzard?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a shaky voice.
Just when Tang Li Xue could not bear it anymore, she immediately decided to use [Sun Dragon ws] to warm herself.
A pair of deep blue [Sun Dragon ws] appeared on her right and left side making the surrounding extremely low temperature soar rapidly.
Even the thick snow pile around Tang Li Xue melted in an instant.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, but she did not dare to lower her guard.
On the contrary, she raised her vignce to the maximum since her deep blue [Sun Dragon ws] could easily be spotted by anyone in this white snow area.
As if proving Tang Li Xue''s guess was correct, several ice spikes suddenly assaulted Tang Li Xue from above!
Tang Li Xue controlled the pair of [Sun Dragon ws] to quickly block all of the ice spikes!
All of the ice spikes instantly melted before they could even touch the [Sun Dragon ws].
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
But Tang Li Xue''s limbs began to freeze again, so she hastily controlled the [Sun Dragon ws] to fly closer to her again.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and thought: ''This looks bad~! The surrounding temperature is getting lower and lower! I must find the culprit fast and kill it as soon as possible before it could freeze me to death!''
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes and focused on her [Extraordinary Perception] to find the fox who created this blizzard!
When the blizzard foxunched another attack on Tang Li Xue, Tang Li Xue immediately took this chance to find it!
"I see... So, you hide behind that tree~! Take this~!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she used [Mother Earth''s Gift] andunched a counterattack toward the blizzard fox.
[Earth Spikes]~!
Dozens of earth spikes crushed the tree into pieces, but when they attacked the blizzard fox, a thick ice wall suddenly blocked them!
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and disbelief when she saw the familiar arctic white fox, then muttering: "You are... Bingbing?! You are Bingbing, aren''t you?!"
However, the arctic white fox did not answer Tang Li Xue''s questions and unleashed another attack on her!
[Giant Ice Hammer]~!
Tang Li Xue hastily used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge to the left side.
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The [Giant Ice Hammer]''s attack missed Tang Li Xue, but it quickly chased after her again.
When Tang Li Xue saw the crimson light shining inside the arctic white fox''s eyes, she instantly understood that the arctic white fox was still under the mind-control effect of the Crimson Skies Domain.
"Even Bingbing was mind-controlled by this darned Crimson Skies Domain?! Unforgiveable~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger.
Since she was facing Bingbing, Tang Li Xue no longer nned to kill Bingbing anymore, but she started to think about how to wake up Bingbing from the mind-control effect.
The [Giant Ice Hammer] flew swiftly toward Tang Li Xue, so she quickly countered it with her divine ability!
[Sun Dragon Fangs]~!
A huge dragon head condensed from extremely hot deep blue mes shed with [Giant Ice Hammer] andpletely melted it in only a few moments!
After thinking for a while and failing to find any good idea to wake up Bingbing, Tang Li Xue decided to restrict her movement first.
[Energy Maniption], [Binding Wires]!
Tens of tough wires created from [Energy Maniption] swiftly bound Bingbing''s entire body!
But Bingbing instantly froze all of them at once and shattered them into pieces like fragile porcin!
For the first time, Tang Li Xue experienced this, and it made her realize that trying to restrain or immobilize someone close to her without injuring them was actually much more difficult than killing a powerful opponent.
"Damn it~! This is not working at all~! Is there something I can do to wake her up faster?! Something like..." Tang Li Xue muttered in frustration, but she suddenly had a sh of inspiration.
"Wait a minute... What will happen if I try to rewrite the mind-controlling effect with my [Mystic Whisper]? Just like fighting poison with poison, I should be able to fight mind control with mind control too, right? It lookspletely feasible! Let''s try it right away~!" Tang Li Xue chattered excitedly.
However, Bingbing already unleashed another attack on Tang Li Xue before she could use [Mystic Whisper].
[Icy Winter Sparrows]~!
Extremely cold energy formed into several dozens of white sparrows and flew swiftly toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue used her pair of [Sun Dragon ws] to block the [Icy Winter Sparrows] while sprinting closer to Bingbing quickly with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
But her pair of [Sun Dragon ws] was freezing into two blocks of ice in an instant when they touched some [Icy Winter Sparrows]!
Then the frozen [Sun Dragon ws] fell onto the ground covered with thick ice and shattered to pieces.
Tang Li Xue was caught off guard by the [Icy Winter Sparrows]''s terrifying freezing power, but it was already toote for her to avoid them since the rest of [Icy Winter Sparrows] was already flying so close toward her!
Just when the rest of [Icy Winter Sparrows] almost touched her silver furry body...
[Shadow sh]~!
Tang Li Xue activated her [Shadow Striders] equipment skill and instantly teleported into Bingbing''s shadow under her own feet!
[Mystic Whisper] activated~!
"Bingbing, wake up~! It is me, Little Xue~!" Tang Li Xue did not let out any voice from her mouth, but the sound created by her [Mystic Whisper] prated directly into Bingbing''s mind.
The crimson light inside Bingbing''s eyes faded for a moment as she muttered weakly: "I... What hap..."
nd¦Ásn¦Ïv¦Ål
But the powerful mind-control effect from Crimson Skies Domain immediately worked and affected Bingbing again.
When Tang Li Xue saw the crimson light in Bingbing''s eyes only faded for a few moments before it returned again, Tang Li Xue realized that her n hadpletely failed.
The powerful mind-control effect from Crimson Skies Domain which has a continuous effect was clearly a lot more powerful than Tang Li Xue''s [Mystic Whisper] which has limited effect and duration.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue''s Spirit stat was still far from enough topete against the owner of Crimson Skies Domain.
Bingbing red angrily at Tang Li Xue who was so close to her andunched an attack from melee range at Tang Li Xue!
[Icy Winter Rhino]~!
Extremely cold energy formed a huge white rhino and used its sharp horn to ram at Tang Li Xue!
It was already toote for Tang Li Xue to dodge since she was standing so close to Bingbing!
PPPUUUFF~!
The rhino''s sharp horn mercilessly stabbed Tang Li Xue''s body and pushed her away until she left a long trail on the ground covered with a thickyer of frost!
Chapter 587: The Only Way to Eliminate Mind Control Effect!
Chapter 587: The Only Way to Eliminate Mind Control Effect!
The unbearable chill was injected into Tang Li Xue''s body through the [Icy Winter Rhino]''s sharp horn, even all of Tang Li Xue''s internal organs began to freeze.
Tang Li Xue''s consciousness became blurry, and she suddenly felt very sleepy.
At the critical moment when Tang Li Xue almost passed out because of severe Hypothermia, her [Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline] immediately worked to make the blood in her entire body be very hot like moltenva, while her [Imperial Moon Fox Bloodline] expelled the extreme coldness energy from her body.
Even the extremely cold surrounding temperature and the violent blizzard could no longer affect Tang Li Xue anymore right now.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she instantly became sober again.
She immediately created a sharp machete with her [Energy Maniption] and controlled it to cut the [Icy Winter Rhino]''s sharp horn in one move!
CLANG~!
After cutting the [Icy Winter Rhino]''s sharp horn, Tang Li Xue fell down to the frozen ground, and she hastily rolled to the right side so she would not get trampled by the [Icy Winter Rhino].
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs to withstand the pain as she pulled out the [Icy Winter Rhino]''s sharp horn that was still struck deeply in her shoulder with her paws.
But Bingbing alreadyunched another attack on Tang Li Xue without giving her any time to recover!
[Icy Winter Sparrows]~!
Bingbing''s extremely cold energy formed tens of white sparrows, and they flew swiftly toward Tang Li Xue!
When those tens of white sparrows almost reached Tang Li Xue...
[Moonlight sh]~!
Tang Li Xue swung her ws rapidly at an unbelievable speed, creating several streaks of silver light in the air!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Those tens of [Icy Winter Sparrows] were cut into several tiny pieces of ice in an instant and harmlessly fell to the frozen ground!
Tang Li Xue did not feel happy at all even after she easily solved Bingbing''s [Icy Winter Sparrows].
On the contrary, she has a great headache right now as she thinks about how to dispel the mind-control effect on Bingbing.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue still could not think of any good way to prevent the mind-controlling effect of Crimson Skies Domain until now.
Tang Li Xue herself depended on Ming Yue''s vassal mark to remain unaffected by the mind-controlling effect of Crimson Skies Domain.
If not for it, she could only be relying on her bloodlines to forcefully resist the mind-controlling effect by consuming her energy.
"Sigh... But both of them are useless in this current situation! I cannot just give my bloodlines or vassal mark to Bingbing, right?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a frustrated tone.
Then a sudden brilliant inspiration shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
"Wait a minute... I may not be able to lend my bloodlines to Bingbing, but transferring this golden vassal mark to her should bepletely possible, right?!" Tang Li Xue murmured with her topaz blue eyes shining in excitement like a pair of glittering blue stars.
Just when Tang Li Xue was thinking deeply about how to transfer her golden vassal mark to Bingbing, Bingbing already created several sharp rotating ice discs with her divine ability and sent them to attack Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue hastily dodged all of the rotating sharp ice discs with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and shed to the right side!
Surprisingly, The several rotating sharp ice discs swiftly changed their trajectory and headed toward Tang Li Xue again under Bingbing''s ice control!
Tang Li Xue dodged the relentless assault from the several rotating sharp ice discs by using her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to swiftly move to the right and left in a zigzag pattern!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s mind had been working fast to find a way to transfer her golden vassal mark to Bingbing.
''Will it work if I cut the skin where the vassal mark is located and sew it on Bingbing''s skin? Uhh, that n seems very unreliable... rejected!'' Tang Li Xue immediately denied the n in her mind.
After thinking for a few moments while dodging the rapid attacks from several rotating sharp ice discs, Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she still failed to find any feasible n.
Get annoyed by several rotating sharp ice discs, Tang Li Xue condensed a pair of deep blue [Sun Dragon ws] and broke apart those several rotating sharp ice discs by swinging the deep blue [Sun Dragon ws] at them.
After eliminating all of the unfeasible choices in her mind, Tang Li Xue deducted that the only key to sessfully transferring the golden vassal mark to Bingbing was her [Energy Maniption]!
Because this golden vassal mark was basically Ming Yue''s energy that she deliberately sealed in Tang Li Xue''s body.
That was the reason why the Crimson Skies Domain could no longer affect Tang Li Xue under the protection of this golden vassal mark.
"[Energy Maniption]... Like its name, this divine ability should be able to control other people''s energy... or other foxes'' energy! Let''s try it now!" Tang Li Xue said with a firm tone.
Bingbing created another squad of [Icy Winter Sparrows] to attack Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue used her pair of [Sun Dragon ws] to block them.
The [Sun Dragon ws] froze into a pair of ice blocks and shattered.
Tang Li Xue did not care about them as she carefully probed the golden vassal mark on her chest with her [Spirit Perception].
Just like what she had previously guessed, there was an unknown energy sealed in the golden vassal mark.
So, it would be futile even if she cut the skin or dug the flesh out if that unknown energy still remained in Tang Li Xue''s body. That golden vassal mark would certainly appear again.
Tang Li Xue carefully tried to use her [Energy Maniption] to move the unknown energy a bit.
"It works~! I really am a genius~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in excitement when the unknown energy moved a bit under her [Energy Maniption]''s control.
Even though her first experiment was a sess, but Tang Li Xue did not let her guard down at all when she guided the unknown energy bit by bit very carefully and prepared to push it out from her body anytime.
''All right... What I need to do right now is to approach Bingbing again!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she stared at Bingbing who prepared tounch another attack at her.
Her [Shadow sh] was still on cooldown, so she needed to use another n to get close to Bingbing.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to devise a new n, and she muttered: "Yosh~! I hope this will really work~! Let''s begin now~!"
[Water Mirage]~!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure suddenly split into many, and all of them rushed toward Bingbing at a high speed!
Bingbing did not panic at all, and she immediately created a dozen of [Icy Winter Rhinos] with her divine ability!
Those dozen of [Icy Winter Rhinos] charged toward so many Tang Li Xues without any fear!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Tens of Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones were shattered to pieces when they crashed head-on with those dozen [Icy Winter Rhinos] and turned into a puddle of water!
Bingbing hastily created more than thirty [Icy Winter Sparrows], and those [Icy Winter Sparrows] also flew swiftly toward Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones shattered rapidly one after another under the assault of a dozen [Icy Winter Rhinos] and an army of [Icy Winter Sparrows!
After all of those [Water Mirage] clones were destroyed, Bingbing actually still failed to find the real Tang Li Xue among them!
Bingbing thought Tang Li Xue used the stealth divine ability to turn invisible like before, so she quickly increased the intensity of the violent blizzard in order to force Tang Li Xue out!
BBBAAAAAAAANGG~!
Right at this moment, Tang Li Xue suddenly jumped out right from under Bingbing''s feet in her [Spider Scorpion Transformation] form!
nd¦Ásv¦Ål m
Yes, Tang Li Xue used her [Water Mirage]''s clones as a decoy to draw Bingbing''s attention, while she secretly transformed into [Spider Scorpion Transformation] form and dug an underground tunnel to reach Bingbing!
"Wake up, Bingbing~!" Tang Li Xue activated her [Mystic Whisper] again to stun Bingbing for a moment.
Tang Li Xue immediately used this chance to push out the unknown energy from her body and injected it into Bingbing''s body in one breath!
Right at this moment, the golden vassal mark on Tang Li Xue''s chest faded away and moved onto Bingbing''s chest!
The eerie crimson light inside Bingbing''s eyes disappeared, and her eyes returned to normal.
"It really works ~! Hahahaha~! Bingbing, are you okay? Have you already woken up?" Tang Li Xue excitedly asked while holding and shaking Bingbing''s body back and forth.
"I... am okay... Ugh, what happened to me just now? And... by the way, who are you?" Bingbing asked Tang Li Xue with a puzzled tone.
Tang Li Xue: "...."
After calming down, Tang Li Xue suddenly realized that she had made a... little mistake...
"You are not Bingbing~! Who the hell are you?! How dare you disguise as Bingbing~!" Tang Li Xue angrily said.
The fake Bingbing: "....."
"I remember... You are one of Bing Yi''s friends. I am Bing Yi''s elder sister, Bing Shui." Bing Shui introduced herself to Tang Li Xue.
"Bing...Bing''s elder sister? Ahhhhh, I also remember you~!" Tang Li Xue shouted in surprise.
Actually, Tang Li Xue had met several times with Bing Shui before.
It was just Tang Li Xue always met with Bing Shui in their human form, and this was the first time they met each other in their fox form.
Chapter 588: Reminiscence!
Chapter 588: Reminiscence!
When Bing Shui stared at Tang Li Xue''s innocent dumbfounded expression, Tang Li Xue''s appearance ovepped with the small figure in her past.
Bing Shui''s eyes became teary filled with longing and sadness.
She subconsciously stretched out her paw and patted Tang Li Xue''s head gently.
"I am sorry... It is all my fault..." Bing Shui muttered with a tone filled with pain and guilt.
Tang Li Xue tilted her head in confusion.
Tang Li Xue thought Bing Shui apologized to her because of the previous misunderstanding, so she replied with aforting tone: "That is okay. It is not your fault at all."
Bing Shui woke up from her daydream by Tang Li Xue''s reply.
She reluctantly pulled her paw from Tang Li Xue''s head and said to Tang Li Xue: "Now I know why Bing Yi is very close to you."
Tang Li Xue frowned and nned to ask Bing Shui about what she just said.
But Bing Shui already turned around and walked away from Tang Li Xue while muttering: "Thank you very much for being my little sister''s best friend. Please take good care of her..."
Tang Li Xue replied again with a reassuring tone and patted her chest: "Don''t worry. I will definitely do that even without you telling me to do it."
Tang Li Xue always felt the aura of this Bingbing''s elder sister was very familiar to her.
It made Tang Li Xue very fond and wanted to get close to her, but Tang Li Xue could not find any reason for that.
Until Tang Li Xue watched Bing Shui walk away from behind, she finally realized it...
That figure looked lonely and fragile, but her back was firm and resilient as if it could bear any burden for her only family...
Wasn''t that identical to her big brother''s figure?!
Bingshui''s figure started to ovep with the big brother in her mind.
Every time her big brother left her alone in the hospital room, his back would always look like this.
Tang Li Xue rubbed her teary eyes and decided to discuss about Bing Shui with Bingbing after this Foxes Hunting Festival was over.
Bingbing always seemed to extremely hate her elder sister, Bing Shui, but Tang Li Xue did not know the exact reason for their grudge until now.
She also never asked about it because she always thought that Bing Shui was a bad fox before.
But Tang Li Xue changed her mind right now. It waspletely impossible for the fox with an identical aura as her big brother to be a bad fox.
Maybe she could try to resolve the misunderstanding between themter...
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her chaotic mood.
"However, that is a problem forter... I have something even more important to think of right now." Tang Li Xue said as her mouth twitched with aplicated mood.
Because she gave Bing Shui her golden vassal mark from Meng Yue, her bloodlines had to work hard again to resist the mind-controlling effect from Crimson Skies Domain by consuming her energy rapidly.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue really wanted to ask Bing Shui to return the golden vassal mark to her, but she was too embarrassed to do so.
"Sigh... Forget it. Oh, well... I wonder if Meng Yue will be angry if I ask for another vassal mark from her?" Tang Li Xue murmured as she dashed in another direction with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
Her current destination was reaching the nearest pir of golden light as soon as possible before her energy waspletely exhausted.
.....
The red-haired sexy girl opened her crimson eyes and smirked while muttering in amusement: "That toy transferred Meng Yue''s vassal mark to someone else?"
"Pfft, ahahahaha~! Meng Yue, oh, Meng Yue~! Even your toy no longer wants to y with you anymore~! How pitiful of you~?!" The red-haired sexy girl mocked with a delighted tone.
The red-haired sexy girl waved her hand to disperse the virtual chess in front of her while saying in a teasing voice: "But don''t worry~! I will help you to punish that little toy~! Since that toy no longer has your mark, it means it''s okay if I do not y ording to the rules, right?"
Intense killing intent shed in the red-haired sexy girl''s eyes as she sneered evilly and ordered in a yful tone: "Go, all of you~! Crush that toy for me~!"
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue who already activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] suddenly shuddered as her [Entrasensory Perception] gave her a faint foreboding of danger.
But the feeling of danger was too vague, so Tang Li Xue only decided to raise her guard more and rushed faster to the nearest pir of golden light.
However, just when Tang Li Xue entered the meadow area, her [Entrasensory Perception] sensed more than ten foxes suddenly heading toward her at an extremely fast speed!
"Damn it~! How the hell they could detect my location when I still have my [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] activated?!" Tang Li Xueined in anger.
It was already toote for Tang Li Xue to avoid those foxes, so Tang Li Xue could only try to use her skill to get away from them quickly!
[Water Mirage]~!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure split into many identical water clones, and they hastily ran in different directions to confuse those chasing foxes!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Those more than ten foxes started to attack Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones one by one!
It only took ten seconds or so for them to eliminate most of Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones!
After they broke all of [Water Mirage] clones, they still failed to find the real Tang Li Xue.
Well... Just like before, the real Tang Li Xue was currently digging an underground tunnel in her [Spider Scorpion Transformation].
Unfortunately, the red-haired sexy girl could already guess it since Tang Li Xue had already done this several times until now.
BOOOOM~! BOOOOM~! BOOOOM~!
Those chasing foxes started to bombard the ground with their respective skills to find Tang Li Xue!
The surrounding grassy ground was filled with many deep craters because of those chasing foxes'' bombardment.
It did not take long for them to lock at Tang Li Xue''s exact location from the excavated tunnel she dug.
BOOOOOMMM~!
The blind bombardment from one of the chasing foxes managed to hit Tang Li Xue and made her buried underground, but she quickly jumped out to the surface before the other chasing foxes could also bombard her!
[Energy Maniption], Binding Wires~!
Tang Li Xue created a lot of thick wires with her [Energy Maniption] and used them to bind those chasing foxes!
[Essence Devouring Technique]~!
Tang Li Xue hastily drained the energy from all of these chasing foxes with her [Essence Devouring Technique]!
Just when Tang Li Xue happily sucked the energy from these chasing foxes, her silver furry body trembled in horror when her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed that more than twenty foxes wereing toward her at high speed!
"Damn it~! What is happening here?! Why are there so many foxesing after me all of a sudden?!" Tang Li Xue uttered in frustration and disbelief.
Before these more than ten foxes could free themselves from the binding, Tang Li Xue swiftly ran away from here with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
If the other twenty foxes came here to join the fun, then she would need to face more than thirty foxes alone!
When those ten foxes freed themselves from the binding, they immediately chased after Tang Li Xue again.
Before Tang Li Xue could run far, three foxes alreadye toward her from the front!
Tang Li Xue did not want to be surrounded by so many foxes from all directions, so she immediately decided to get serious from the start.
nd¦Ásn¦Ïv¦Ål
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
Tang Li Xue pped the head of one of the approaching foxes with her paw!
The approaching mind-controlled fox never expected that Tang Li Xue would immediately attack it before they could react, and its head broke open under Tang Li Xue''s p!
That fox turned into a group of white light and disappeared.
But the other two foxes already unleashed their attack on Tang Li Xue at once!
[Fire des]~!
[Wind Spears]~!
Tang Li Xue instantly condensed a thick barrier using [Energy Maniption] and easily blocked all of their attacks.
Tang Li Xue swiftly closed the distance using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and unleashed her [Moonlight sh] at the two of them!
PUUFF~! PUUFF~!
Unfortunately, those two foxes were already prepared, so they also managed to block Tang Li Xue''s [Moonlight sh] with their defensive skill.
When Tang Li Xue fought fiercely against those two foxes for a few moments, the previous ten foxes plus the twenty newly arrived foxes already caught up to her from behind!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger and frustration.
This time, she reallypletely ran out of options!
Little Loki, Yaya, and Phoenix of Pride could not help her anymore for now.
Just when Tang Li Xue was ovee by despair...
BWOOOOOSSSHH~!
A violent blizzard suddenly blew and froze all of them except Tang Li Xue!
The moment Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes, a familiar back stood right in front of her.
"Go~!" Bing Shui shouted in a cold tone.
"But..." Tang Li Xue hesitated for a while, then she gritted her fangs and shouted while running away quickly: "Thank you very much~!"
Bing Shui smiled slightly as she nced at Tang Li Xue''s back.
Then her expression turned extremely cold when she faced more than thirty foxes as she muttered at them: "Come~! Your opponent is me~!"
Chapter 589: The Sixth Treasure Game!
Chapter 589: The Sixth Treasure Game!
.....
Tang Li Xue was actually hesitant about whether she should leave Bing Shui alone or fight alongside Bing Shui against those mind-controlled foxes.
But after pondering for a while, she decided to follow Bing Shui''s words and left alone.
Because Bing Shui''s Blizzard Domain worked best if she fought alone against those mind-controlled foxes.
Tang Li Xue would only hinder Bing Shui from disying her true strength if she fought by Bing Shui''s side.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue already fought fiercely against Bing Shui before, so she knew that Bing Shui was best at stalling time and gradually wearing down the opponents with her ice power.
Even if Bing Shui might not be able to win facing so many foxes at once, but she could easily retreat from them unscathed.
Tang Li Xue immediately pushed Bing Shui''s matter aside as her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed another ten or so mind-controlled foxes rushing toward her again.
"Tsk~! These damned foxes are so annoying~! It seems the owner of Crimson Skies Domain has decided to stop ying around." Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue really wanted to punch the face of Crimson Skies Domain''s owner so badly right now.
She had never bothered the Crimson Skies Domain''s owner or had any grievances against it, but why did it always want to target her?!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue was aware that she was still not a worthy opponent for the Apex Predator Fox level like the Crimson Skies Domain''s owner yet, so she could only choose to forbear it for now.
Those ten or so mind-controlled foxes came from different directions, so no matter how fast Tang Li Xue ran, she would definitely bump into one or two of them.
When Tang Li Xue saw two mind-controlled foxes charging toward her at high speed, she already condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] to face them!
Before those two mind-controlled foxes could reach Tang Li Xue, she already used [Mother Earth''s Gift] tounch a sudden attack at them!
[Mountain Crushing Pit]~!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The surrounding grassy ground quickly sunk to trap those two mind-controlled foxes inside the deep hole, then the deep hole suddenly shrunk and closed to crush them to death!
BAAAAAAANNGG~!
By using [Sun Dragon ws] to divert their attention and make them think that she would attack them using her [Sun Dragon ws], Tang Li Xue easily trapped both mind-controlled foxes with [Mountain Crushing Pit].
"This tactic works surprisingly well~! I may use it more often from now on." Tang Li Xue whispered in amazement.
Tang Li Xue did not care whether those two mind-controlled foxes were already dead or still alive, and she did not bother to check it.
With her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], she swiftly got away from there without decreasing her speed.
While rushing to the nearest pir of golden light at full speed, Tang Li Xue''s mind managed to deduce an important feature of her [Extrasensory Perception].
If any creatures were hostile toward her from the start, then her [Extrasensory Perception] could sense them from a farther radius.
The problem was that if she met with creatures that were not hostile to her at first, but would only attack her when she got closer to them, then her [Extrasensory Perception] would always fail to give her a danger warning on time.
The previous gigantic sandworms and fire crows were the exact examples of it.
This could be a great advantage or a fatal weakness ording to the situation Tang Li Xue was facing.
"Sigh... Let''s put that aside for now." Tang Li Xue muttered with a frustrated tone when her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed more and more mind-controlled foxes were chasing after her right now.
Tang Li Xue did not want so many mind-controlled foxes to get closer to her, so she used [Mother Earth''s Gift] to erect several stone walls to obstruct most of them!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
"Just a little bit more~! It is only around three hundred miles away~!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she was getting closer and closer to the pir of golden light.
But another three mind-controlled foxes already dashed toward her from the front!
A pair of [Sun Dragon ws] already flew swiftly toward those three foxes, while they alsounched their attacking skills to destroy the [Sun Dragon ws]!
But those three mind-controlled foxes failed to realize that Tang Li Xue unleashed another attack using [Mother Earth''s Gift] from right under their feet!
[Mountain Pit] plus [Earth Spikes]~!
The grassy ground under their feet suddenly sunk, and those three mind-controlled foxes fell into a deep hole filled with sharp [Earth Spikes]!
PUUUFFF~! PUUUFFF~!
Tang Li Xue managed to kill two of them, but the third fox could react in time, and it actually used its divine ability to fly out from the deep hole!
[Energy Maniption], Binding Net!
Tang Li Xue created a thick using her [Energy Maniption] and used it to bind the flying fox!
That third flying fox fell again into the deep hole and was stabbed by the sharp [Earth Spikes] inside the hole to death.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and hastily dashed away from there with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
"Those mind-controlled foxes did not look very smart... It seems after falling under the mind-control effect, their brain might not be able to think properly anymore, so they can only fight based on their instinct." Tang Li Xue concluded after fighting many mind-controlled foxes.
When Tang Li Xue was only a few miles away from the pir of golden light, more than fifty mind-controlled foxes already waited for her there!
Tang Li Xue fearlessly rushed toward them all using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] without even decreasing her speed!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Those more than fifty mind-controlled foxes unleashed their attack at once at Tang Li Xue!
[Wings of Freedom], activated~!
Tang Li Xue swiftly jumped and soared into the sky to avoid their simultaneous attack!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!
Their simultaneous attack was missed, but they did not give up andunched another attack at Tang Li Xue without stopping!
Facing the dense rain of so many different elemental attacks, Tang Li Xue''s silver figure suddenly disappeared!
[Shadow sh]~!
Tang Li Xue instantly teleported to the shadow of one of the mind-controlled foxes!
[Water Mirage]~!
After that, Tang Li Xue immediately used her skill to split into many clones, and all of the [Water Mirage] clones rushed toward the direction of the pir of golden light!
Those more than fifty foxes kept attacking Tang Li Xue and her [Water Mirage] clones blindly!
But this time, Tang Li Xue could not hide and dug the underground tunnel with her [Spider Scorpion Transformation] like before since there were so many eyes watching her right now.
POFFF~! POFFF~! POFFF~! POFFF~!
[Water Mirage] clones broke one by one rapidly under the continuous assault of more than fifty mind-controlled foxes!
After all of the [Water Mirage] clones were shattered into a puddle of water, those more than fifty mind-controlled foxes unleashed another simultaneous attack toward the real Tang Li Xue!
The colorful rain of different elemental attacks looked astonishingly beautiful, but the lethality was enough to eliminate ten Tang Li Xues!
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs when she almost ran out of options, so she decided to activate one of her life-protection trump cards!
[Sun And Moon Aegis]''s Protection~! (Became invulnerable for 1,5 seconds)
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
A great explosion pushed Tang Li Xue forward, and she used the momentum from the great explosion to fly more swiftly toward the pir of golden light!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body entered the pir of golden light and disappeared in an instant from everyone''s vision.
.....
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes again, she was already in front of a majestic pce.
Tang Li Xue still did not dare to lower her guard and vigntly observed her surroundings.
Several foxes appeared one after another in front of a majestic pce, but all of them looked confused.
"I see... The mind-controlling effect from Crimson Skies Domain will temporarily disappear when they enter the treasure game space." Tang Li Xue murmured while keeping an eye on those other foxes.
Of course, the mind-controlling effect would control those foxes again after they went out of the treasure game space.
At that time, those mind-controlled foxes would not have any time to consume their winning prize, and they could only offer their winning prize to the owner of the Crimson Skies Domain.
Tang Li Xue felt sorry for them, but there was nothing she could do to help them out of the Crimson Skies Domain''s control.
Tang Li Xue took a nce at the timer in front of the pce gate.
nd¦Ásv¦Ål m
[5871]...
[5870]...
[5869]...
''There is still around one and a half hour before the treasure game start...'' Tang Li Xue counted in her mind.
Tang Li Xue felt relieved since there would be no one targeting her for now, so she decided to take some rest right now to quickly recover her energy.
Based on her experience from the previous treasure game, no one could attack the others while the timer was still counting down, so the situation should be quite safe for now.
Of course, Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] still worked to detect any iing danger just in case something unexpected happened all of a sudden.
[3], [2], [1], [0]...
After Tang Li Xue dozed off for more than an hour in exhaustion, the countdown timer finally reached zero.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The huge and majestic golden pce gate suddenly opened as the countdown timer changed into a string of words about the rules of the current treasure game!
Chapter 590 590: Interracial Great War!
Chapter 590 Chapter 590: Interracial Great War!
[Interratial Great War between Beast Race, Undead Race, and Human could happen at any time and anywhere.]
[The fox who sessfully took the race g from the opponent''s pce will win this treasure game.]
[If the opponent managed to steal the fox race g from the Fox n Pce, all participating foxes would be eliminated from the Fox Hunting Festival.]
[Never be afraid to fight against the other races because only the brave can win the war. Good luck, fox cubs~!]
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply after she read the rules of the treasure game.
"This... is a pretty tricky game..." Tang Li Xue muttered in confusion.
The treasure game''s rules were very clear and easy to understand, but the problem lies in how to win this game without losing first.
If all of them charged toward the opponent''s pce to take their g, then who would defend their own fox race g here?!
While Tang Li Xue was thinking about how to solve this problem, the other foxes already rushed out from the majestic golden pce gate.
Tang Li Xue still felt doubtful about the treasure game''s rules since she still felt there must be another hidden tricky part about it, but she decided to follow the other foxes and stepped out from the majestic golden pce gate.
Tang Li Xue was instantly dumbfounded when she saw the impressive scene in front of the majestic golden pce gate.
There were millions of human race armies lined up in neat formation!
Each of them wore aplete set of ck armor from head to toe, and they were divided further into several armies ording to their role.
Archer armies, spearman armies, tanker shield armies, heavy cavalry armies, spell and talisman armies, spirit cannon armies, and so on.
After reincarnating into this Immortal World until now, this was the first time Tang Li Xue witnessed such an impressive scene like something in the Three Kingdoms movie in her previous life.
Well, even though their situation was not that good...
There were only around ten or twenty foxes participating in this treasure game, but they had to face millions of human race armies.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently when she saw the great difference between their number and murmured: "You''ve got to be kidding, right?!"
Just when Tang Li Xue felt that this treasure game was only created to troll at them...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The ground shook violently as hundreds of thousands of foxes with different colors and divine abilities charged out from the Fox Pce in neat formation!
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock.
"Why the hell did so many foxes suddenly appear?! Where did theye from?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in confusion.
"Salute to General~!" One of the foxes shouted, and then all the foxes put their paw on their chest.
"Gen... Gene... What?!" Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise and confusion.
She looked around in puzzlement and only after a few moments, she finally understood.
It seems each participating fox would be given around one hundred thousand foxes tomand.
Just like what the first line of the treasure game rules told them... This is the Interracial Great War, not the individual war!
So, this was the great war between millions of fox armies versus millions of human armies!
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining in excitement as she said: "Interesting... This is surely the most interesting treasure game so far~! I never thought I could y an RTS (Real Time Strategy) Game in real life!"
Tang Li Xue grinned happily as she faced her own one hundred thousand imposing fox troops, and she immediately said to them: "Ei, there is no need to be so formal. From now on, all of you can call me General Tang... No, that does not sound cool enough... Umm... Yes, you all can call me, General Zhuge Li Xue~!"
"Yes, General Zhuge Li Xue~!" The one hundred thousand fox troops shouted in unison.
"Ahhahahahaha, that sounds really good... Can you call me that once more?" Tang Li Xue grinned and asked them to do it again.
The one hundred thousand fox troops felt confused by Tang Li Xue''s frivolousmand, but they still did it obediently since it was themand from their general: "Uh... Yes, General Zhuge Li Xue~!"
Tang Li Xue felt extremely pleasant and smirked happily.
After being depressed because she got targeted again and again by the terrifying owner of Crimson Skies Domain, Tang Li Xue finally could relieve her stress.
"Cough... All right~! Now, all of you divide into three divisions ording to your divine abilities specialty: offense, defense, and speed." Tang Li Xue coughed and started to be more serious as she gave another order to them.
The fox troops quickly divided into three armies ording to Tang Li Xue''s order.
After they lined up neatly in three different formations, Tang Li Xue estimated that there were around 20% foxes with speed-type divine abilities, 30% foxes with defense-type divine abilities, and 50% foxes with offense-type divine abilities.
Unsurprisingly, the foxes with offense-type divine abilities held thergest number...
While Tang Li Xue tried to reorganize her troops so she could devise better war nster, some of the impatient foxes already brought their respective troops to charge toward the human armies.
Tang Li Xue facepalmed with her paw when she saw their stupidity.
Charging blindly without any formation and strategy in a great war like this was the same as suicide!
Tang Li Xue could only shake her head, but she did not n to do anything to help them.
"Oh, well... At least, their sacrifice would not be in vain since we can see a glimpse of the power of those human armies." Tang Li Xue muttered as she observed those charging foxes carefully.
There were around four to five hundred thousand fox troops that charging fearlessly at the millions of human armies.
The human generals did not panic and gave his order calmly: "Hold it~! Not yet~! Be ready~!"
After the four to five hundred thousand fox troops were only a few miles away from them, the human generals finally gave the order to attack: "All Spirit Cannons~! Shoot~!"
WEEENNNGG~!
The tens of thousands of spirit cannons were shooting destructive blue rays at the same time!
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
Densely packed fox troops could not dodge the simultaneous shot of so many spirit cannons, and they could only withstand it head-on!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Just in one salvo, those spirit cannons managed to take the lives of more than fifty thousand fox troops!
"All Spirit Cannons recharged~! Archer Troops and Spell Troops be prepared~!" The human generals gave another order to their troops.
The human generals silently measured the distance of the charging fox troops, and after they got closer, the human generals shouted their follow-up orders: "Release all arrows and spells~!"
Hundreds of thousands of arrows and all kinds of elemental spells were released at the same time and instantly covered the entire skies!
Just watching them from afar made Tang Li Xue''s furs tingle with dread.
BANG~! BANG~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~!
Like meat grinders, more than one hundred thousand fox troops got obliterated mercilessly before they could even touch the enemies.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she saw the calm and organized movement of those millions of human troops.
"Those people are the veteran armies that already undergo harsh training and fight several times in war. They are not something we can look down on." Tang Li Xue muttered in a solemn tone.
"Shield and Spear Troops~! Move on fast~!" The human generals shouted out loud.
Shield Troops lined up neatly on the most front like an imprable iron fortress!
While the Spear Troops stabbed out their long spear between the gap of the metal shield!
It could be imagined if those charging fox troops shed head-on with the shields and spears, many of them might be killed...
When the charging fox troops approached the human armies, all of them started to unleash their divine abilities toward those human armies.
But different from the neat and organized human armies, those charging fox troops lookedpletely disordered.
The foxes with defense-type divine abilities were fallen behind, while the foxes with long-range attack divine abilities were at the most front.
The foxes with melee-range attack divine abilities were trapped in the middle, so they could not attack the enemies or support their teammates.
The speed-type foxes with speed-type divine abilities were confused and did not know what they needed to do.
They looked extremely messy. Even Tang Li Xue could not bear to look at them anymore.
Meanwhile, the cavalry troops from the human armies already were cleverly attacking them from both of their nks.
Their action was swift and tidy like a work of art without any mistake.
What happened next was aplete ughter-fest without any meaningful resistance from the messy fox troops.
Millions of veteran human armies versus five hundred thousand messy fox armies.
Do not need to mention the great difference between their number, even if their number was equal, those veteran human armies would still crush those messy fox armies easily.
In fact, the human armies did not even move a tenth of their overall numbers to tten those five hundred thousand fox troops.
Tang Li Xue sighed while muttering timidly: "So, this is the Interracial War... It is so tragic."
Even if these fox troops and human armies were not real, but she still felt depressed when she saw so manyrades from her own race get killed.
Chapter 591 591: Retreat Back Into the Palace!
Chapter 591 Chapter 591: Retreat Back Into the Pce!
However, Tang Li Xue managed to find a lot of important information from that tragic war.
First, the individual strength of their fox troops was only at the level of an ordinary Beast Lord or [Rare] Grade beast.
Forget about facing the powerful Predator-level fox, any elite-level fox from the Myriad Foxes Academy like Mogui could easily beat any one of these fox troops in the one-on-one battle.
So, never expect any of these fox troops to suddenly be a protagonist in the war and mow down the enemy troops alone like Lu Bu or Guan Yu.
Second, the individual strength of the human race troops was surprisingly only at the Acupuncture Opening Stage.
Of course, they were also only at the ordinary level of the Acupuncture Opening Stage.
Any genius at the Acupuncture Opening Stage from big sects like Ye Zhen could easily beat them in one-on-one battles.
But those human generals were on a whole different level...
Even Tang Li Xue could not judge their full strength yet since the five hundred thousand fox armies had already fallen apart before those human generals fought.
ording to Tang Li Xue''s observations, the individual strength of their fox armies was much stronger than those human armies.
However, those human armies relied on the power of battle formations and weapons to crush their fox armies.
Well, it could not be said that they were cheating because the human race had always been relying on their wits and weapons to fight against any beast since ancient times.
After failing to think of any good ns, Tang Li Xue shook her head in frustration while muttering: "Those human armies are so united, while we are... sigh..."
The Fox Race armies already lost five hundred thousand troops. That was around 20% to 30% of the total number of the Fox Race armies!
While those human armies only lost a few thousand soldiers, and more than ten thousand soldiers got injured, but those did not affect their overall strength.
Tang Li Xue took a nce at the other participating foxes that already be the fox general for now.
No one even bothered to ask the others about teaming up in this Interracial War, so all of them nned to fight their own battle alone.
''It seems impossible for us to team up peacefully since there could only be one winner in this treasure game.'' Tang Li Xue thought in her heart.
Tang Li Xue shouted another order to her own troops: "For the fox troops with offense-type divine abilities, divide into two teams for long-range artillery team and a close-range fighter team."
In the previous losing war, Tang Li Xue realized the importance of positioning these two different roles, so she quickly gave that order.
The fox troops obediently did Tang Li Xue''s order and hastily lined up into two different divisions.
So, Tang Li Xue''s armies were now divided into four divisions.
20% fox troops with speed-type divine ability, 30% fox troops with defense-type divine ability, 20% fox troops with long-range offense-type divine ability, and 30% fox troops with melee-range offense-type divine ability.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched in disappointment.
In fact, Tang Li Xue preferred that her troops only have one single role rather than the equal distribution of different roles like this since it would be much easier to manage.
"Never mind, there is no point inining about that now." Tang Li Xue muttered while thinking deeply.
ording to her experience in ying RTS games, there was only one n she could do to win this war alone with a limited number of troops...
''Divide and Conquer Strategy...'' Tang Li Xue squinted her eyes as she thought in her mind.
"Well, it should not be that hard since I have [Mystic Whisper]... But the timing has to be right, or my troops may get obliterated just like the previous five hundred thousand fox troops." Tang Li Xue whispered with a solemn expression.
Just when Tang Li Xue still thinking about how to carry out her ns, Human Race armies already marched toward their Fox Pce in neat battle formation!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
More than half of the fox armies instantly fell into disarray after they saw those Human Race armies ughtered those five hundred thousand fox armies so easily, and then those terrifying? Human Race armies marched straight toward them.
Their fox generals hastily ordered their respective troops to go back into the Fox Pce and decided to use Fox Pce as a defensive fortress to fight against those Human Race armies.
Their decision could not be said to be bad, but Tang Li Xue did not like it.
Rather than ying defensively like that, Tang Li Xue preferred to y more offensively instead!
"Come~! All of you follow me closely~!" Tang Li Xue ordered her one hundred thousand fox troops while sprinting to the right of the Fox Pce.
Some other fox generals also took the same decision as Tang Li Xue, but they brought their fox troops in the other direction.
Honestly, the speed of her fox troops was too slowpared to Tang Li Xue herself.
Luckily, those human race armies did not bother to chase after the divided fox armies and only focused on taking down the Fox Pce.
"Stop~!" Tang Li Xue shouted while stopped running away.
She stared at the human race armies that were currently assaulting the Fox Pce with long-range attacks such as Spirit Cannons, arrows, and spells, but the fox troops inside the Fox Pce were too panicked to do anything.
"Damn it~! That looks bad~! At this rate, our castle will notst long." Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs.
After pondering it for a while, Tang Li Xue gave another order to her armies: "Long-range troops, prepare tounch an attack~! The target is those human race armies~!"
"Understood, General Zhuge Li Xue~!" The long-range fox armies shouted while lined up neatly.
"Ready~! Release it~!" Tang Li Xue yelled out loud.
Tens of thousands of long-range elemental attacks were released at once by the long-range fox armies!
But the human general already noticed Tang Li Xue''s movement and hastily ordered the shield troops to block the long-range elemental attacks!
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
Tens of thousands of elemental attacks rained down on the human armies and exploded.
Even though the shield troops sessfully blocked half of them, but the long-range elemental attacks still managed to bring down thousands of human troops.
The fox armies inside the Fox Pce quickly noticed Tang Li Xue''s movement and also ordered their fox troops tounch long-range attacks from the top of the pce''s walls.
Although, Tang Li Xue''s movement was insignificant, but it actually calmed down those disarrayed fox troops in the Fox Pce and made them more braver to face the human race armies.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw the situation had stabilized a lotpared to before.
One of the human generals red at Tang Li Xue and her troops with eyes filled with anger and killing intent.
He yelled to order his troops to chase after Tang Li Xue along with her troops and kill them all!
"Let''s go~!" Tang Li Xue turned around and continued to run with all of her troops.
But there were already more than one hundred thousand heavy cavalry army chasing closely behind her!
After ying cat and mouse for a while and running for tens of miles from the Fox Pce, Tang Li Xue muttered with a mocking smile: "Tsk, tsk tsk~! Since you dare to chase me this far, then do not me me for being unkind~!"
[Mother Earth''s Gift]~!
[Mountain Pit] plus [Earth Spikes]~!
The grassy ground beneath the horse hooves of those heavy cavalry troops suddenly sunk, and they fell into a huge deep hole filled with sharp [Earth Spikes]!
The heavy cavalry troops behind could not stop their horse on time and fell into the huge deep hole filled with sharp [Earth Spikes] too like andslide!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Thousands of heavy cavalry troops were killed in an instant by Tang Li Xue''s sneaky attack!
While the rest of the heavy cavalry army pulled and calmed down their horse, Tang Li Xue stared at them with a pair of brighter topaz blue eyes.
"This is our chance~! Long-range troops,unch rapid-fire attacks at them~!" Tang Li Xue yelled her order to the long-range artillery fox army.
The long-range artillery troops shot their elemental attack at the heavy cavalry human army continuously!
BBOOOOMM~! BBOOOOMM~! BBOOOOMM~!
The heavy cavalry human army could not attack them since there was a huge deep hole filled with sharp [Earth Spikes] between them!
Even if they jumped over the huge deep hole, those continuous elemental attack bombardments would hit them and make them fall into the hole too.
The long-range artillery fox troops managed to kill thousands of heavy cavalry human army in only a few seconds!
Themander of heavy cavalry troops quickly ordered his troops to take a detour to reach Tang Li Xue and her troops!
But how could Tang Li Xue let them go that easily...
"You can also take this as a gift from me~!" Tang Li Xue said as she activated her [Mother Earth''s Gift] again.
[Mountain Crushing Pit]~!
In the direction where the heavy cavalry human army was heading, anotherrge deep hole suddenly appeared!
Hundreds of them fell into therge deep hole, then therge deep hole suddenly shrunk and closed to crush them to death!
The heavy cavalrymander red at Tang Li Xue while gnashing his teeth in fury, then he actually rode his horse and charged toward Tang Li Xue while skillfully dodging the elemental attack''s continuous bombardment!
The horse jumped so high to pass the previous deep hole filled with sharp [Earth Spikes], and the heavy cavalrymander swung his halberd at Tang Li Xue!
"Humph~! Do you think you can win just because you look cool?!" Tang Li Xue snorted as she urged her [Energy Maniption].
[Energy Maniption], Binding Net!
Chapter 592 592: Fighting Against Heavy Cavalry Commander!
Chapter 592 Chapter 592: Fighting Against Heavy Cavalry Commander!
Under Tang Li Xue''s control, a thick binding flew toward the heavy cavalrymander to tie him up!
CLANK~! CLANK~! CLANK~!
The heavy cavalrymander swung his halberd rapidly, and the thick binding was cut to pieces in an instant.
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise while eximing in disbelief: "Damn, this guy is quite strong~!"
When the heavy cavalrymander stabbed his halberd at Tang Li Xue, she hastily created a transparent barrier with her [Energy Maniption] to block it!
[Energy Maniption], Protection Barrier~!
BAAAAANG~!
Tang Li Xue''s transparent protection barrier shattered like fragile ss under the powerful thrust of the heavy cavalrymander''s halberd!
Luckily, Tang Li Xue already used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to retreat further swiftly in less than one breath, so the lethal halberd thrust failed to hit her.
But the heavy cavalrymander did not give up. He spun his halberd to block so many long-range elemental attacks from the long-range artillery fox troops whilemanding his horse to rush toward Tang Li Xue once again.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she saw the heavy cavalrymander charging at her again.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue really did not want to waste her time and energy fighting against this heavy cavalrymander.
Moreover, his heavy cavalry troops also almost arrived after taking a bit of detour to avoid the deep trap hole she made with [Mother Earth''s Gift].
However, Tang Li Xue had noticed some hidden important clues about this RTS... cough... this treasure game.
From the previous panic and frightened reaction of the fox armies in the Fox Pce after watching the five hundred thousand fox troops get ughtered by the human armies, Tang Li Xue concluded that their fox troops had hidden stats, something like trust and morale.
If so many of them died at once like before, their trust in their general would decrease, and their morale would fall which would affect their emotion.
Once their trust and morale dropped to a certain extent, they might no longer obey their general''s orders and even theirbat power would be greatly reduced.
At worst, their fox troops might have some chance to run away at the critical moment, leaving their fox general alone in the middle of war, and turning into deserters.
Tang Li Xue certainly did not want any of that to happen to her, so after pondering for a while, she decided to beat this heavy cavalrymander alone to show her strength!
By showing her absolute strength in front of her fox troops, she would certainly be able to gain their trust and boost their morale!
"It''s really troublesome, but... Oh, well... I guess I have no other choice." Tang Li Xue said with azy tone as she licked her paw.
The excitement in her topaz blue eyes was theplete opposite of what she had just said.
"Stop attacking~! Standby in your formation and let me take him down by myself~!" Tang Li Xue ordered her fox troops.
Just when the heavy cavalrymander arrived right in front of Tang Li Xue and raised his halberd, then swung it down at Tang Li Xue...
PUFFF~!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure was broken apart into a puddle of water!
Yes, Tang Li Xue had just used her [Water Mirage] to create a clone of her and hid herself with [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment].
Tang Li Xue appeared right beside the heavy cavalrymander and struck the horse mounted by the heavy cavalrymander heavily with her paw!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
The horse mounted by the heavy cavalrymander was also covered with thick ck metal armor, so hitting it with [Moon Shattering Strike] which had a high defense pration effect was the most effective choice!
NEEEIGGGGGGH~!
The horse in thick ck metal armor neighed in pain as it was knocked down by Tang Li Xue''s strike, and the heavy cavalrymander fell down from it.
''A chance~!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in her mind as she immediately urged her divine ability.
[Mother Earth''s Gift], Earth Spikes~!
When the sharp stone spikes stabbed out from the ground, the heavy cavalrymander already agilely did a somersault to stand up, then used his halberd as a fault to jump high.
PUUUFF~! PUUUFF~!
Tang Li Xue''s Earth Spikes mercilessly stabbed the ck armored horse to death, but the heavy cavalrymander managed to get away unscathed.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
After losing his beloved mount, the angry heavy cavalrymander finally got serious.
He summoned out his martial soul without any hesitation!
ROOOOOAAAAAARRR~!
A majestic orange me lion appeared above the heavy cavalrymander and merged with his ck metallic halberd!
The heavy cavalrymander dived down from the sky while swinging down his halberd that was wrapped with orange me at Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue hastily used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge to the left side!
BOOOOOMMM~!
The moment the heavy cavalrymander''s halberd struck the ce where Tang Li Xue stood just now, it created a great explosion leaving arge deep crater there!
The heavy cavalrymander skillfully spun around his halberd and thrust his halberd toward Tang Li Xue!
But Tang Li Xue had already prepared this time, she already condensed a pair of deep blue [Sun Dragon ws] to face the heavy cavalrymander''s halberd!
The most surprising thing was that a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] was currently holding a white broadsword made from [Energy Maniption]!
"You want to y with martial arts?! Then let''s y and see who is better~!" Tang Li Xue said to the heavy cavalrymander.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Redirection Flow!
By using the broadsword, the [Sun Dragon ws] easily parried the heavy cavalrymander''s halberd thrust.
Not only that, the [Sun Dragon ws] began tounch a counterattack against the heavy cavalrymander!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
The [Sun Dragon ws] swiftly swung the broadsword rapidly toward the heavy cavalrymander''s opening gaps!
The heavy cavalrymander agilely avoided the first attack and blocked the next few attacks using his halberd''s pole.
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Because he focused too much on the [Sun Dragon ws] and the broadsword, he failed to realize Tang Li Xue''s hidden strike using her three tails!
Tang Li Xue''s three tails stabbed deep into the heavy cavalrymander''s legs!
Tang Li Xue''s expression might be t as if everything was ording to her n, but she was actually very surprised in her heart.
''Woah~! This diversion tactic using [Sun Dragon ws] is too awesome, right?! Tsk, why the hell did I only realize such an awesome trick just recently?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in amazement.
The heavy cavalrymander gnashed his teeth to withstand the pain and red at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with hatred and fury.
The heavy cavalrymander forcefully pushed away the broadsword that shed with his halberd and swiftly thrust his halberd toward Tang Li Xue!
[Flurry Incinerate Thrusts]~!
The orange me coated the entire halberd was spinning rapidly as the heavy cavalrymander thrust his halberd at Tang Li Xue.
At a nce, the heavy cavalrymander''s halberd thrust looked like an ordinary thrust, but Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] could clearly sense countless thrusts too fast to be seen with naked eyes!
"Damn it~! This bast*rd still has such a powerful move?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise while frowning deeply.
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] judged that this technique was extremely dangerous and lethal for her.
"It''s such a pity... It seems I must get serious too~!" Tang Li Xue muttered while she controlled her pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and made them raise the broadsword.
Just when the heavy cavalrymander''s [Flurry Incinerate Thrusts] was ready to meet the [Sun Dragon ws]''s broadsword...
Tang Li Xue''s right eye was suddenly glowing a majestic golden light!
[Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes]~!
"AAAARGGHHH~!" The heavy cavalrymander was screaming out loud as majestic golden sun mes were burning his body directly.
It only took ten seconds or so to burn the heavy cavalrymander to nothingness, leaving behind only his set of broken ck armor.
If the heavy cavalrymander was still alive, he might scold Tang Li Xue for her shamelessness.
''Didn''t you say something like fighting with martial arts and seeing who is better?! Why did you suddenly use your divine ability to attack and kill me?!''
Fortunately, the heavy cavalrymander was already dead, so no one couldin about that anymore.
Right at this time, her fox troops were already fighting against the heavy cavalry troops for a few minutes!
Tang Li Xue urged her [Sun Dragon ws] to take the heavy cavalrymander''s halberd and raised it right while shouting: "Your leader had already been killed by me~!"
Even the brave heavy cavalry troops instantly fell into hesitation after they realized theirmander''s death.
"And now, It is your turn~!" Tang Li Xue menacingly said to the heavy cavalry troops.
"GO~! ATTACK~! CRUSH THEM ALL TO DEATH~!" Tang Li Xue shouted her order to her own troops.
"UWWWWOOOOO~!" Tang Li Xue''s fox troops howled out loud in unison and charged toward the heavy cavalry troops fearlessly.
Losing theirmander at such a critical moment was a huge blow to the heavy cavalry troops.
Without their morale and unity, the heavy cavalry troops instantly fell into a mess as Tang Li Xue''s fox troops ferociously tore them apart one by one without any difficulty.
Tang Li Xue also quickly charged toward the messy heavy cavalry troops while controlling her [Sun Dragon ws] to swing around the broadsword.
She easily chopped down tens of the heavy cavalry troops in one sh!
Chapter 593: Another Fox Army is Approaching!
The right [Sun Dragon w] held the white broadsword, while the left [Sun Dragon w] held the previous heavy cavalrymander''s weapon, the ck halberd.
Under Tang Li Xue''s smooth control, the white broadsword and ck halberd harvested the lives of heavy cavalry troops like mowing down grasses in the yard.
Thankfully, the dead troops would just turn into a group of white lights and dissipate like the previous dead foxes in this Fox Hunting Festival.
If this was real, the blood would already be flowing like a river. Even innards and internal organs would be scattered everywhere on this battlefield.
Tang Li Xue herself might not be able to bear to see it, and she would have already vomited her entire guts out.
It did not take long for the rest of the heavy cavalry troops topletely lose their courage to fight and run away in all directions.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to chase after them and immediately gave another order to her fox troops.
"All right, that is enough~! There is no need to chase after them! Let''s retreat from here quickly before their reinforcement armyes to hunt us down~!" Tang Li Xue shouted to her fox troops.
Tang Li Xue brought her fox troops and rushed farther from the Fox Pce.
There were many things she needed to do, such as finding the location of the Human Pce, mapping the entire area here so she could devise further ns to take the Human Race g, and so on.
But the most important thing to do was to build or find a temporary camp and let her fox troops recuperate as soon as possible.
After running for more than a hundred miles away from the previous battlefield''s location, Tang Li Xue and her fox troops managed to enter a dense jungle area filled with tall trees.
Tang Li Xue felt this location was quite good as their temporary camp to recuperate, so she shouted to her fox troops: "Stop~! Let''s take a rest here! Don''t forget to count the number of casualties and injured!"
It only took less than fifteen minutes for the fox troops to count it, and one of them immediately reported it back to Tang Li Xue: "Report to General Zhuge Li Xue~! There are 317 casualties, 2964 heavily injured, and 15628 lightly injured."
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched slightly when she heard the report.
Those numbers were actually not small at all!
Honestly, Tang Li Xue thought she managed to take down those heavy cavalry troops wlessly without any meaningless sacrifice, but who knew that the reality was far from her imagination?!
After all, those heavy cavalry troops were already inplete disarray without theirmander, just like a group of headless chickens.
"Sigh... I am still too naive. Reality ispletely different from the game after all... Even a cornered rabbit would still bite back, let alone those human troops." Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment.
The fox who reported to Tang Li Xue heard her words and tried tofort her: "Forgive me for my impudence, General. But I personally think we already did pretty great. We can have aplete victory against those humans with only so few casualties."
Tang Li Xue smiled ironically after she heard theforting words and thought.
That result might be good enough for them, but Tang Li Xue who already got used to ying RTS games in her previous life wants more.
She remembered that in order to obtain the ''Juggernaut'' achievement in one of her RTS games, she brought 100 soldiers to attack 1000 enemy soldiers and managed to win unscathed.
But right now, it was only her 100,000 well-organized troops versus 100,000 messy troops without theirmander, yet she almost lost 20% of her overall troops!
The result was so embarrassing that Tang Li Xue wanted to find a hole to bury her head like an ostrich.
Tang Li Xue waved her paw and let the reporting fox take a rest.
Tang Li Xuey down rxed under the shady tree while muttering to herself: "Forget it~! At least, I have already reached all of my objectives. I sessfully obtained my army''s trust and boosted their morale."
Then she frowned deeply again and thought: "But the strength of that heavy cavalrymander is still surprising me... If the 100,000mander is already that powerful, then the 1,000,000 generals would certainly be even more powerful."
"Aisss~! So, it is also impossible for me to ughter my way directly to their pce and forcefully take their Human Race g alone like in the Dynasty Warrior games. This is such a troublesome treasure game~!" Tang Li Xue groaned in disappointment.
Tang Li Xue actually quite liked this type of RTS treasure game, but the winning condition was too harsh in her opinion.
"How the hell can I win against millions of human troops only with my mere 100,000 fox troops?! If only you give me millions... No, I only need one million troops, and I can definitely take their race g~!" Tang Li Xue said in frustration.
Just when Tang Li Xuemented her unfavorable situation, one of her fox troops rushed toward her and shouted: "Report to General Zhuge Li Xue~! There is another fox armying fast towards us~!"
"What~?!" Tang Li Xue suddenly stood up in shock.
"Damn it~! Stand up all of you~! Quickly arrange our formation and be prepared for battle~!" Tang Li Xue shouted out loud to her fox troops.
Because her fox troops already had a high degree of trust in Tang Li Xue, they immediately executed her order without any hesitation.
It only took ten seconds or so for them to arrange several neat formations based on their divine ability''s specialty.
Tang Li Xue also already stood right in front of her troops and stared at the iing fox army with a solemn expression.
What did the participating foxes like Tang Li Xue need the most to win this treasure game?
Of course, it was their troops!
So, there was a high chance that the fox general of this iing fox army might want to kill Tang Li Xue to seize her troops.
But Tang Li Xue still did not dare to blindly attack them first, since it would be a great loss if both of them had heavy casualties because of civil war.
The iing fox army stopped moving forward after they arrived a few hundred meters away from Tang Li Xue''s fox army, and their fox general ran alone to approach Tang Li Xue.
"Hello, I am General Zhao. You should already realize it too, right? It would be impossible for us to win this treasure game at this rate, and we all might get eliminated from the Fox Hunting Festival." The mint-colored fox said to Tang Li Xue with a solemn tone.
Tang Li Xue frowned in annoyance and hastily replied: "I am General Zhuge. Stop being so wishy-washy and just state your real purpose frankly!"
''Tsk~! What do you mean you are called General Zhao?! Do you think you are Zhao Yun?! So what?! Do you think you are cooler and greater than me?! General Zhuge is clearly much better than General Zhao, okay?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in displeasure.
The more she thought so, the more unhappy Tang Li Xue was when she saw the mint-colored fox in front of her.
However, Tang Li Xue still held down her temper and listened to the mint-colored fox''s words.
The mint-colored fox smiled and continued: "It may be impossible for us to win alone, but if we can gather all like-minded foxes and team up to take down the Human Race Pce together, then our winning chance might be greatly increased."
Watching its cunning smile, Tang Li Xue really wanted to punch its snout so badly, but she calmly replied instead: "Then who will take away the Human Race gter? Are we all going to grab it at the same time?"
"Of course not~! Only the fox with sufficient abilities will eventually get the Human Race g. Everything is up to fate~! At least, we would not get eliminated from the Fox Hunting Festival in this way. That is already enough for me." The mint-colored fox said with a humble expression.
Tang Li Xue snorted in her heart: ''You are saying it as if you do not want to win this treasure game and obtain the precious treasure prize~!''
After pondering it for a while, Tang Li Xue thought that the idea of this cunning mint-colored fox was still eptable.
As long as she was careful enough to not get backstabbed by itter, then everything should be all right.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shed with an unnoticeable cunning light.
''I might even be able to secretly find a chance to slip away from them and steal the Human Race g first with my [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment]ter...'' Tang Li Xue muttered excitedly in her mind.
Tang Li Xue nodded while smiling at the mint-colored fox and saying: "Okay, I agree~! Have you already found the location of Human Pce?"
The mint-colored fox replied with a happy expression: "That is great! I have already found the location of their Human Pce, but it is tightly guarded. It is almost impossible to break through it alone. So, we must team up with others and attack it together!"
Chapter 594 594: Bing Shui’s Disaster!
Chapter 594 Chapter 594: Bing Shui''s Disaster!
"Oh? So, you really already found it?!" Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise.
Tang Li Xue was quite impressed with this mint-colored fox''s information gathering ability.
They had just split up and left the Fox Pce together about a few hours ago, but it had already found the location of the Human Pce.
Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in her heart and thought: ''There are really no simple foxes in this festival. All of them are geniuses. But some of them might be good at fighting, while others are good at other fields, such as this mint-colored fox with its impressive information gathering ability.''
The mint-colored fox nodded and vaguely told Tang Li Xue about it: "It is actually located on the high ground, so it is easy to defend and hard to attack. The location is extremely strategic. It might not be easy for us to break through into it even if we gather more troops."
Tang Li Xue felt her blood pressure would suddenly explode if she had more conversation with this cunning mint-colored fox.
Because it always cleverly covered up the important information and only told her very vaguely about it.
Imagine if you asked your friend where her house was and she answered: ''Ah, yes. My house is in a strategic location and on a high ground.'' Can you find your friend''s house with just that vague information?!
Tang Li Xue really wanted to know the exact location of the Human Pce, so she could send some of her speed-type fox troops to scout it first, but this cunning mint-colored fox did not n to tell her clearly about it.
Tang Li Xuepletely lost her mood to talk with the mint-colored fox, so she said with azy tone: "Ah, all right. Okay, you can go away right now. You only need to inform the ce and time when we will gather to attack the Human Pceter."
The mint-colored fox spoke some small talk to Tang Li Xue for a few more minutes, but after she sensed that Tang Li Xue was no longer interested in chatting with it anymore, it finally bid goodbye to Tang Li Xue and left from there.
Tang Li Xue watched the mint-colored fox retreated with its fox troops while clicking her tongue in disgust: "Tsk~! This fox is the most suitable to be a politician."
Tang Li Xue did not bother to think about that annoying mint-colored fox anymore and muttered: "Since the location of the Human Pce has been found, then the thing I have to do right now is to let my fox army quickly recover to their optimal condition before the next war begins."
But Tang Li Xue immediately frowned deeply.
At first, she nned to make [Talisman of Regeneration] to heal the injured fox troops, but it seems she must change her n right now.
Currently, there are almost 20,000 injured fox troops.
Even if Tang Li Xue has 10 hands... or rather 10 paws, she would definitely not be able to make 20,000 [Talisman of Regeneration] to cure all of the injured fox troops.
Rather than wasting so much of her time only to cure 30 to 50 of them, it would be much better if she made [Stealth Talismans] for the ambushing tactic or the other strategic type talismans.
It was already proved in the previous battle in Inheritance Ground Tablet against the big sect''s core disciples and Sapphire Armored Wasps that those types of talismans would work the best in the chaotic war against many opponents.
After deciding what kind of talisman she would make, Tang Li Xue stopped hesitating and called all of the speed-type fox troops, then gave her order to them: "Thirty of you, quickly follow that fox army from behind carefully. Remember not to be discovered or caught by them~! Send someone back to report to me every hour."
Thirty speed-type fox troops immediately executed Tang Li Xue''s order and quickly dashed in the direction where the mint-colored fox was heading.
"The others find as many tree barks as you can and bring it to me as soon as possible." Tang Li Xue gave another order to the rest of the speed-type fox troops.
The speed-type fox troops swiftly dispersed and looked for the tree barks, while Tang Li Xue stared in the direction of Fox Pce with a worried expression, and muttered: "I hope those foxes can defend the Fox Pce for a bit longer."
.....
After Tang Li Xue entered the pir of golden light and participated in another treasure game, the red-haired sexy girl became extremely pissed off.
Since she could not find Tang Li Xue for now, Bing Shui became her next outlet object for her anger.
Dozens of mind-controlled foxes came continuously chasing after Bing Shui without giving her any time to breathe.
Under the violent blizzard, tens of mind-controlled foxes were assaulting Bing Shui from all directions!
[me Beam]~! [Wind Edge]~! [Poisonous Vines]~!
Bing Shui''s pure white furry body was dyed crimson with her own blood as her body was filled with countless injuries.
Even when she was breathing heavily in exhaustion, she did not n to give up at all.
[Ice Wall]~!
By unleashing her ice power, a thick ice wall instantly condensed in front of Bing Shui!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
A dense rain of elemental attacks struck the ice wall, it only took a few moments for the thick ice wall to be filled with countless cracks and explode to pieces by their continuous elemental attacks!
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Bing Shui was blown away for more than twenty meters because of the explosion, and she coughed out another few mouthfuls of blood.
"Sigh, it seems this is as far as I can go..." Bing Shui murmured as her vision became blurry.
The torrential barrage of elemental attacks reflected in her already blurry eyes, there was no more ce to hide, and she had no more strength left to defend against them.
''It is such a pity that I can no longer return this precious-looking golden mark back to her...'' Bing Shui thought at herst moment.
Yes... At first, Bing Shui nned to return this golden mark back to Tang Li Xue, but who knew that she saw Tang Li Xue was assaulted by so many foxes at that time.
So, she decided to hold these foxes back and let Tang Li Xue run away first.
With her ice-type divine abilities, Bing Shui had full confidence that she could face so many foxes easily.
However, she never expected that so many mind-controlled foxes woulde more and more until she could not hold them down anymore.
Bing Shui closed her eyes in resignation.
After waiting for a few moments, Bing Shui still did not feel anything.
When she opened her eyes again, Bing Shui saw a magnificent scene she might never for in her entire life.
The torrential barrage of elemental attacks stopped in mid-air along with the movement of all the mind-controlled foxes!
Even her violent blizzard had stopped, and she could see countless snow floating in the air!
Everything in her sight had stopped as if the time itself waspletely still!
"This... What is happening?!" Bing Shui muttered in shock, disbelief, and puzzlement.
Then she suddenly heard a childish sounding right from behind her: "Hei, you over there~! Did you hear me?!"
Bing Shui turned around and saw a cute little girl with long blue hair currently squatting and stared at her strangely.
"Why do you have my vassal mark on you? Did you steal it?" The blue-haired little girl puckered her lips cutely with an unhappy tone.
Even though she acted cutely and said it with a childish sound, but the vague terrifying pressure of the blue-haired little girl made Bing Shui unable to breathe.
"I..." When Bing Shui opened her mouth to exin, arge amount of blood flowed out from her mouth instead as her breath and vitality became weaker.
The blue-haired little girl frowned in displeasure.
With only a single wave of her hand, Bing Shui''s wounds rapidly recovered, and she waspletely restored in only a few seconds!
Bing Shui widened her eyes and stared at the blue-haired little girl in shock and disbelief.
"Who are you?! Are you a God? Am I actually already dead?" Bing Shui murmured in amazement.
"If you are really a God, can you please revive both of my parents and youngest sister?! Please..." Bing Shui begged and kneeled to the blue-haired little girl.
The blue-haired little girl''s expression turned cold in that instant.
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
Bing Shui saw both of her front paws suddenly bent unnaturally in a zigzag pattern.
"AAAAAGGHHHHH~!" Bing Shui screamed in extreme pain.
"I really hate anyone kneeling and begging at me! Now tell me, did you steal that vassal mark from my Silver Sister?! Did you even dare to hurt my Silver Sister?!" The blue-haired little girl interrogated Bing Shui with a chilling tone mixed with thick killing intent.
The excruciating painpletely awakened Bing Shui.
She was not dead yet, and the little girl in front of her was not a God, but a peerless apex predator-level fox!
Bing Shui pondered carefully for a few moments while digesting the information she got from the blue-haired little girl.
Bing Shui would never do anything to betray her rescuer, Tang Li Xue.
But from this blue-haired little girl''s words, Tang Li Xue got this golden mark from this little girl, and she was also quite anxious and worried about Tang Li Xue''s safety.
''It looks like this little girl is really her friend, and their rtionship should be very close. It should be all right to tell this little girl about it.'' Bing Shui thought in her heart.
The blue-haired little girl secretly heard Bing Shui''s thought, and her expression became a lot softer.
Bing Shui did not know that she had just survived a great disaster.
If she decided to tell a lie about Tang Li Xue to Meng Yue, Meng Yue would certainly kill her in the most excruciating way since she hated liars the most!
Chapter 595 595: Meeting With the Other Fox Generals!
Chapter 595 Chapter 595: Meeting With the Other Fox Generals!
.....
"choo~!" Tang Li Xue suddenly sneezed when she was still making talismans inside the tree hole of the huge tree.
"Strange... Did I just catch a cold from making these talismans while being naked? It should not be, right? With my current strength and cultivation, how could I still catch a cold like an ordinary mortal?!" Tang Li Xue muttered while tilting her head in confusion.
Then she waved her hand and created a set of white clothes with her [Energy Maniption] to cover her slender human body whileining: "This must be because I got hit by Bing Shui''s ice skills and extremely cold blizzard before~! Urgh, I really want to take some rest and sleep so badly~!"
Despite herints and dissatisfaction, the Golden Inscription Pen in her grasp still did not stop moving and kept making one talisman after another with greater precision than before.
Because she knew that she did not have much time anymore, and she believed the previous mint-colored fox could certainly feel it too.
There were just too many human race armies that assaulting the Fox Pce right now!
There might be around two to three million human troops, while there were less than one million fox troops defending the Fox Pce.
ording to Tang Li Xue''s estimation, the Fox Pce might not even be able tost for one day under the fierce siege of those two to three million human troops.
So, they must sessfully break through the Human Pce and take away the Human Race g before that happens!
"General Zhuge Li Xue~! General Zhao and its troops havee again~!" One of the fox troops shouted from below the huge tree.
Tang Li Xue had already ordered her fox troops to never disturb her making the talismans unless there was something urgent.
If they needed to report important to her, they only needed to shout from below the huge tree.
POOOOFFF~!
The talisman she was currently making instantly failed when Tang Li Xue''s mind was interrupted by the fox troop''s shout.
"Sigh... So, the time hase." Tang Li Xue murmured while storing her Golden Inscription Pen back in her system storage.
Tang Li? Xue canceled her [Human Transfiguration] and reverted back into her fox form.
Then she took several stacks of talismans she had made with satisfied expression.
She made some [Talisman of Regeneration] and buff talismans such as [Talisman of Giant Strength], [Talisman of Lightning Speed], and [Talisman of Iron Skin] for her own personal use, so there were only a few for each type.
But for her fox troops, she focused on making them strategic-type talismans such as [Stealth Talisman], [Hidden Exploding Talisman], and [Stealth Illusion Talisman]. There were around twenty or so for each of these types of talismans.
"Not bad~! With these talismans, my n can finally be carried out~!" Tang Li Xue said with a contented smile on her face.
Even though Tang Li Xue felt that the number of talismans she had made was only barely sufficient, but that cunning mint-colored fox had alreadye to pick her up, and she could not let it wait for too long.
Tang Li Xue jumped down from the tree hole and shouted to her fox troops: "Stand up all of you~! Quickly set up the formation~!"
The resting fox troops hastily woke up and lined up in several neat formations based on their divine ability''s specialty.
"The fox troops with speed-type divine ability,e here quickly and line up right in front of me~!" Tang Li Xue gave an order with a firm tone.
Tang Li Xue selected the fifty best fox troops with the speed-type divine ability and distributed her strategic-type talismans to them.
"Fifty of you will be my special troops from now on. All of you do not need to participate in any battle or war before getting direct orders from me. Do you understand?" Tang Li Xue shouted at the fifty chosen fox troops with the speed-type divine ability.
"Understood, General~!" Fifty of them replied in unison.
Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction and immediately brought all of her troops to greet the mint-colored fox with its troops.
When the mint-colored fox with its troops arrived at their temporary camp, Tang Li Xue and her fox troops had already waited for them in neat formations.
"Are you ready? I can wait for you if you have something to prepare." The mind-colored fox politely asked Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and replied: "No need~! Let''s go right now~!"
Both Tang Li Xue and the mint-colored fox led their fox troops to the south for a few hundred miles.
After they reached the green valley, Tang Li Xue finally saw three other foxes with their own respective fox troops who had already waited for them there.
"So, there are only five of us?" Tang Li Xue asked the mint-colored fox with a skeptical tone.
But the mint-colored fox quickly shook its head and exined: "Of course not! You can wait for a while here, I have to pick up two otherrades after you."
"I see... So, there would be seven of us attacking the Human Pceter?" Tang Li Xue asked again with a confirming tone.
The mint-colored fox nodded and replied: "That is right. But it should be enough since there may be only one million human troops guarding that Human Pce ording to my estimation."
After exining it to Tang Li Xue, the mint-colored fox bid farewell to Tang Li Xue for now and went to pick up its otherrades.
The other three fox generals did not n to greet Tang Li Xue, so Tang Li Xue also did not want to talk any nonsense with them.
Even though they were temporarilyrades for now, but it did not change the fact that they were actuallypetitors for winning this treasure game.
But Tang Li Xue did not n to sit idly, so she decided to give an order to her troops to scout their surroundings first.
"It would be our 700,000 fox troops versus more than 1,000,000 human troops defending from inside their Human Pce, huh?!" Tang Li Xue murmured while frowning deeply.
Tang Li Xue was not quite optimistic about this, because logically, the number of attacking troops should be a lot more than the number of defending troops if they wanted to break through into the Human Pce.
However, that cunning mint-colored fox had so much confidence in its words, so Tang Li Xue was quite sure that the cunning mint-colored fox should have already some effective n for it.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue herself did not really care about the mint-colored fox''s n since she already had her own ns to take away the Human Race g from inside the Human Pce.
At first, Tang Li Xue had 70% to 80% confidence in her n, but watching the confident looks of these other fox generals, her confidence in her n suddenly decreased to 50% to 60%.
"Sigh... It seems it would not be that easy for me to take away the Human Race g alone. Each of these fox generals already had their own n in their mind." Tang Li Xue murmured with a solemn expression.
Not only did she have to fight fiercely against those veteran human troops, but she also had to always guard her back carefully, lest she got backstabbed by these temporaryrades in arms at the most critical momentter.
At this time, Tang Li Xue finally understood the feelings of the Beast Race when they teamed up with the Human Race to fight against the Undead Race.
.....
While Tang Li Xue brought her fox troops to survey her surroundings while waiting for the mint-colored fox to gather the other fox generals, Bing Shui had already told everything to the blue-haired little girl.
From the moment she fought against Tang Li Xue under the mind-controlling effect of the crimson sky domain, and then Tang Li Xue transferred this golden mark to her in order to clear that mind-controlling effect.
Until finally she chased after Tang Li Xue to return this golden mark, but Tang Li Xue had already been besieged by so many mind-controlled foxes, so she decided to help Tang Li Xue out by holding back these mind-controlled foxes.
"I see... So that was what had happened~!" Meng Yue''s muttered, but her expression became even more colder.
Even Bing Shui felt suffocated without Meng Yue letting out any of her aura or pressure.
Meng Yue noticed Bing Shui''s uneasiness and her expression softened.
She smiled cutely at Bing Shui while patting Bing Shui''s head and saying: "Do not worry~! Although I do not really like useless weaklings such as you, but I would never hurt you without any good reason."
Bing Shui: "....."
''Is this girl trying to calm me down? No, she just insulted me, right?!'' Bing Shui thought suspiciously.
Meng Yue shook her head with an innocent cute smile on her immature face and replied with a leisurely tone: "No, no, no, no~! I hate liars the most, so I never tell any lies~!"
''Uh, what is she saying? I never say anything about lies, right? I just think you insulted me and hurt my heart very rudely without any good reason! Wait a minute, did this girl read my mind just now?!'' Bing Shui widened her eyes in shock and disbelief.
Meng Yue giggled cutely and stood up, then casually waved her hand.
In that instant, all of the mind-controlled foxes and their elemental attacks that were stopped by Meng Yue got erased and disappeared!
Only Meng Yue and Bing Shui were left in that entire area!
Chapter 596 596: The Secret Plot of Fox Generals!
Chapter 596 Chapter 596: The Secret Plot of Fox Generals!
Bing Shui was instantly dumbfounded and dropped her jaw in astonishment.
There were so many mind-controlled foxes just now, but this blue-haired little girl eliminated all of them with only one swipe of her hand!
When Bing Shui had not yet awake from her daze, the blue-haired little girl suddenly floated into the air while saying to Bing Shui with a carefree tone: "My vassal mark should only be given to anyone I acknowledge as someone worthy of being my friend."
The blue-haired little girl pondered it for a while and continued to say: "You are clearly unworthy of it. But... Oh, well~! I guess I can only make an exception since my cute Silver Sister deliberately gave it to you."
"The next time you meet with my cute Silver Sister, send my hi to her~! Oh, and also say that she does not need to worry about those annoying flies anymore~! I will take care of it for her soon~!" The blue-haired little girl muttered as her immature figure faded away from Bing Shui''s vision like empty air.
After the blue-haired little girlpletely disappeared, leaving only Bing Shui alone there, Bing Shui''s extreme awe for the blue-haired little girl turned into an enormous motivation as her eyes shone with a firm light of determination.
"If I had an absolute godlike power like her on that day, I might be able to... No, it is useless to regret it now. What I need to do right now is to use every ounce of my effort to reach it~! Someday, I will definitely be as strong as her, and at that time..." Bing Shui muttered with a hoarse voice as her eyes turned red in extreme hatred, and her heart was filled with unstoppable killing intent.
Bing Shui tried to stand up and walk away, but she immediately winced in pain.
Bing Shui smiled ironically with a sad expression.
Both of her front paws were previously broken by Meng Yue, but Meng Yue just went away without restoring them back.
However, Bing Shui never hated or med Meng Yue at all.
It was clear that she and those other mind controlled foxes were no different in Meng Yue''s eyes, so Meng Yue did not really care about her.
If she did not have any connection with Tang Li Xue, Meng Yue would not even bother to take a nce at her.
So, how could Meng Yue possibly bother to waste energy on restoring her paws?!
Bing Shui gritted her fangs as she used her freezing power to freeze both of her broken front paws until she could no longer feel any pain.
With the support from her ice control, Bing Shui could move her frozen broken paws around freely as usual.
Like controlling a marite with string, but this time, Bing Shui''s ice control was working as the string while both of her broken paws were the marite.
Pushed by her thirst for power, Bing Shui firmly headed to the nearest pir of golden light to join another treasure game.
Well... Actually, Meng Yuepletely forgot to do it before she went away just now.
But it was also true that Meng Yue never thought anything about Bing Shui since she only thought about Tang Li Xue before.
In Meng Yue''s mind, only something that could arouse her curiosity could enter her sight. Other than that, she would immediately forget about them as soon as she turned away.
.....
Meanwhile, the mint-colored fox had already brought back the other two fox generals with their fox troops, and all seven fox generals finally got together.
Tang Li Xue''s fox troops had actually already discovered the Human Pce when they scouted the surroundings.
It was only a few hundred miles from here near the cliff.
From her fox troop''s report, Tang Li Xue finally understood why the mint-colored fox said that the Human Pce was located in a strategic position.
With the natural protection from the tall mountains and cliffs, they could only attack the pce from one side.
Moreover, there was only a meadow in front of the Human Pce, so there was no obstruction to their vision at all.
Once their fox troops approached the Human Pce, the human troops guarding the top of the pce''s wall could easily spot them from tens of miles away, and they could hastily prepare to defend against their attack.
Of course, some of them could also fly directly toward the Human Pce, but that was the same as suicide since there were hundreds of thousands of Spirit Cannons installed on the top of the Pce''s walls.
Even Tang Li Xue who has almost perfect stealth with her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] did not dare to try her luck by flying directly toward the Human Pce in her [Ethereal Form].
The discussion of the seven fox generals immediately fell into a stalemate since no one dared to be the first one to send their fox troops into this perfectly defended Human Pce.
"Sigh... Please, all of you, be more rational~! Are all of you really nning to keep dawdling without doing anything? What are you all waiting for? Our Fox Pce might notst for long, and it could fall at any time." The mint-colored fox angrily said to the other fox generals.
''It is easy for you to say that! Why don''t you send all of your troops to attack that Human Pce first? Set a good example for us!" The other fox general mocked the mint-colored fox.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply without any intention to say anything.
Just those tens of thousands of Spirit Cannons on the top of the Pce''s walls were already more than enough to give them a great headache.
Even if they sent all of their 700,000 fox troops at once to besiege that Human Pce, there might be less than half left when their fox troops reached the Human Pce.
With only around 350,000 Fox troops left, it would certainly be impossible for them to break through the Human Pce quickly.
Once the Human troops that attacked their Fox Pce came back to defend their Human Pce, all of their fox troops would certainly bepletely obliterated by them!
But the mint-colored fox''s words were also true...
Their Fox Pce might notst for long under the siege of so many human troops, and it could fall at any time.
After pondering for a while, Tang Li Xue sighed and said unwillingly: "I may be able to temporarily cover their vision, but it cannot be long."
The mint-colored fox''s eyes shone with excitement: "Really?!"
Tang Li Xue urged her [Mother Earth''s Gift] divine ability and easily raised a stone wall in an instant.
The eyes of the other five fox generals also changed when they saw Tang Li Xue''s [Mother Earth''s Gift] divine ability.
"Why don''t you say it from the beginning?!" One of the fox generalsined with an annoyed tone.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and did not even bother to exin.
If she used her [Mother Earth''s Gift] to protect 700,000 fox troops from the tens of thousands of Spirit Cannons, she would be the first one to getpletely exhausted before the war even started!
However, she did not have any other choice right now...
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes also shed with a cunning light as she suddenly said: "But before that, I have one condition~! if all of you do not want to fulfill it then let''s just forget it..."
The other fox generals including the mint-colored fox instantly frowned in anger and displeasure.
"What kind of condition do you want?! The purpose of our alliance is to take down their Human Pce. It should be ourmon objective! Why do we need to fulfill your condition?!"
"That is right! You are also from Fox Race! How could you ask a condition from us to take down the Human Pce?! You traitor~!"
The other five fox generals began to scold Tang Li Xue one by one.
But Tang Li Xue did not care about their anger at all.
She yawnedzily and muttered in a casual tone: "Are all of you done? Now, let''s talk about my condition... Each of you only needs to transfer 20,000 of your fox troops to me. It is very easy, right?"
"What?! Are you crazy?!"
"impossible~! We will never give you anything!"
"No way~! How could you ask for something like that from us?! You greedy vixen!"
The other five fox generals were fuming in rage and shouted angrily at Tang Li Xue.
The mint-colored fox was the calmest among them, but it also felt that Tang Li Xue''s request was too much.
"Everyone~! Let''s calm down first! We will never solve any problem in a hot-headed state." The mint-colored fox shouted to appease the other five fox generals.
Under the mint-colored fox lead, their discussion became more peaceful.
Tang Li Xue kept bargaining with the other fox generals, and in the end, they finally agreed that each of them would only give 5,000 fox troops to Tang Li Xue.
Of course, those other fox generals did not give their 5,000 fox troops to Tang Li Xue for nothing.
They had already secretly plotted something by sending their fox troops to Tang Li Xue.
Not only they could secretly spy on the movement of Tang Li Xue and her fox troops, but they could also y an important role at the most critical momentter. For example, doing something like sabotaging or obstructing Tang Li Xue from obtaining the Human Race gter.
Chapter 597 597: Tang Li Xue’s Cruel Tactic!
Chapter 597 Chapter 597: Tang Li Xue''s Cruel Tactic!
After the meeting and fierce bargaining with the other fox generals, Tang Li Xue let out a sigh of relief.
Don''t look at Tang Li Xue always acted calm and collected throughout the entire meeting, but she almost lost her patience many times and really wanted to beat up against those hypocritical fox generals so badly.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue had already yed many RTS (Real Time Strategy) games in her previous life and unknowingly gained some knowledge from those famous figures, so she could forcefully pretend to be cool, calm, and collected in that meeting.
Tang Li Xue took her time to reorganize her fox troops, and after one hour or so, each of the other fox generals finally sent their 5,000 fox troops to her.
In total, Tang Li Xue received 30,000 fox troops from them.
But when Tang Li Xue saw the condition of the 30,000 new fox troops that she had just received from those fox generals, Tang Li Xue''s mouth immediately twitched in anger.
Almost all of those 30,000 fox troops were actually injured or crippled!
Those fox generals obviously deliberately picked the weakest or the most injured fox troops to give them to Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to hold down her temper.
"All right... At least, I have 130,000 fox troops right now." Tang Li Xue muttered tofort herself.
Then she also ordered her own injured fox troops to merge into them, and Tang Li Xue named them, Assault Army.
Assault Army consisted of 50,000 wounded fox troops, and their task was to be the vanguard to attack the Human Pce.
In short, they were her cannon fodder troops...
These 50,000 cannon fodder troops were about to be sacrificed just so the other 80,000 healthy fox troops could reach the Human Pce and fight against the human troops inside the Human Pce in their optimal condition.
If it was in real life, Tang Li Xue might not have the heart to do this cruel thing.
Sacrificing 50,000 innocent wounded troops to achieve her goal sounded too cruel, but Tang Li Xue herself was also running out of options right now.
Tang Li Xue repeatedly convinced herself that these fox troops were not real and that she should utilize them in the same way as those soldiers in her RTS games.
Since she decided to be cruel this time, then she would go all the way to the end and squeeze every worth of these cannon fodder troops until there was nothing left.
Tang Li Xue created so many thin wires with her [Energy Maniption] and ordered each of the 50,000 cannon fodder fox troops to tie these thin wires around their necks.
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes and sighed whileining softly: "I probably will not be able to sleep well after this..."
After arranging their respective fox troops for another hour or so, the mint-colored fox, Tang Li Xue, and the other five fox generals gathered their fox troops, and they were ready to assault the Human Pce together.
It did not take long for them to reach the green teau where the Human Pce was located.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Seven fox generals along with their 700,000 fox troops charged fearlessly toward the Human Pce!
But the human troops inside the Human Pce acted extremely fast and immediately shot tens of thousands of Spirit Cannons on the top of their Pce wall toward the iing fox troops!
Tang Li Xue hastily urged her [Mother Earth''s Gift] and a huge sturdy stone wall was instantly erected right in front of her!
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
Tens of thousands of blue energy rays shot by the Spirit Cannons suddenly filled the entire skies, and they struck the huge sturdy stone wall in unison, leaving countless holes in that stone wall.
Even though some of their attacks managed to prate the huge sturdy stone wall, but their lethality had already been greatly reduced, and they were not powerful enough to kill any fox troops in an instant.
"Sess~!" The other six fox generals eximed excitedly.
However, Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes in annoyance instead.
It took so much of her energy to create this sturdy defensive stone wall, so how could it not be effective?!
"Keep charging~! Don''t stop~! I will use my divine ability to make another defensive stone wall to obstruct their attacks~!" Tang Li Xue shouted to warn the other six fox generals and all of the fox troops.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue started to activate her [Essense Devouring Technique] to recover her energy rapidly!
The 50,000 thin wires created from her [Energy maniption] had already connected to 50,000 cannon fodder troops, and she began to drain their energy using her [Essense Devouring Technique]!
Yes, Tang Li Xue was clearly treating them as her personal power bank!
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
The human troops in the Human Pce fired their Spirit Cannons again!
But Tang Li Xue immediately created another defensive stone wall to block them!
Tang Li Xue intentionally made every one of her defensive stone walls nted, so their fox troops only needed to run in a zigzag pattern to avoid getting hit by the Spirit Cannon''s attacks.
The human generals guarding the Human Pce frowned when they realized that the attacks from their Spirit Cannons were no longer effective.
So, they quickly ordered 300,000 of their troops to go out of Human Pce and face the iing fox troops!
300,000 human troops quickly arranged in front of the Human Pce in a neat battle formation.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
700,000 fox troops shed head-on against the 300,000 human troops!
BANG~! BANG~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
But this time, the result was heavy casualties on both sides because their fox armies already arranged for the foxes with defense-type divine abilities to be on the most front followed by the foxes with melee-range offensive-type divine ability right behind them.
Tang Li Xue did not immediately assist her fox troops in fighting against the human troops.
She vigntly nced at the Spirit Cannons on the top of Human Pce, and exactly as she expected, she saw those Spirit Cannons were glowing, and they were prepared to shoot again!
Tang Li Xue sighed and groaned helplessly: "Sigh... So, this is war, huh... Just like ying chess, any chess piece can be sacrificed at any time."
Those human generals clearly did not care about friendly fire at all and still nned to shoot their Spirit Cannons.
Tang Li Xue hastily used her [Mother Earth''s Gift] to create another defensive stone wall before they shot their Spirit Cannons.
Even though her sturdy defensive stone wall would also protect the human troops from the Spirit Cannon''s attacks, but a half-second hesitation in a fierce war like this might prove to be fatal for their Fox Race''s side.
After making sure that the human troops on the top of Human Pce''s walls could not lock and shoot their Spirit Cannons toward the fox troops, Tang Li Xue condensed a pair of deep blue [Sun Dragon ws], and both of them were holding a pair of huge broadswords created from [Energy Manption].
Then she began to charge forward and mow down the human troops one by one!
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Double Rapid Quick shes!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Both huge white broadswords disappeared from everyone''s vision as the [Sun Dragon ws] shed them at lightning speed and cut more than fifty human troops in less than one breath!
Those human troops broke into a group of white lights and dispersed into nothingness.
Tang Li Xue herself did not idle at all.
[Tiger Roaring sh]~!
While controlling her [Sun Dragon ws] to fight, Tang Li Xue executed [Tiger Roaring sh] to y the nearby human troops!
ROOOOOAAAARRR~!
A majestic image of a White Tiger let out a deafening roar instantly stunning the surrounding human troops for a few moments!
The White Tiger swung both of her ws violently and tore tens of human troops like a bunch of dry grasses!
While ughtering the human troops rapidly using her divine abilities, Tang Li Xue faintly realized an odd thing.
"Strange... This is too easy, right? Wait a minute... Why are there no human generals here to fight against us?" Tang Li Xue mumbled while frowning deeply.
The ufortable feeling in her heart got stronger and Tang Li Xue hastily approached and shouted at the other six fox generals who were currently fighting against the human troops: "Hey, you guys~! Do any of you think..."
Before Tang Li Xue could finish her word...
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The sturdy stone wall she made by using [Mother Earth''s Gift] was shattered to pieces by a powerful ranged attack!
"SHOOT~!" The human general who stood on the top of Human Pce''s wall ordered out loud.
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
Tens of thousands of blue energy rays shot by the Spirit Cannons rained upon the battlefield mercilessly!
Not only did those tens of thousands of spirit energy attacks manage to kill so many fox troops at once, but even some of the human troops on the battlefield were not spared and got killed without even realizing what just hit them.
"Damn it~! These bast*rds are so ruthless~!" Tang Li Xue cursed while hastily erecting another defensive stone wall with her [Mother Earth''s Gift].
However, she also knew that this n was no longer feasible.
Since those human generals could destroy her defensive stone wall to pieces once before, then they could certainly do it again soon.
But Tang Li Xue was also very curious about what just destroyed her previous defensive stone wall, so she decided to try it once more.
"What the hell is that? A bigger and stronger Spirit Cannon? No, it should not be it, right?" Tang Li Xue murmured in puzzlement.
She closed her topaz blue eyes and tried to sense the change of spirit energy at the top of Human Pce''s wall with her [Extrasensory Perception].
Chapter 598 598: It’s Time for Plan B!
Chapter 598 Chapter 598: It¡¯s Time for n B!
Even though her vision was covered by the defensive stone wall, Tang Li Xue could still vaguely sense the movement above the Human Pce''s wall through her [Extrasensory Perception].
She sensed a tall and burly man wearing a set of golden armor and was holding a bow in one hand and an arrow in the other hand.
Tang Li Xue was quite sure that a man d in golden armor should be one of the human generals.
At first, that human general aimed his arrow at their defensive stone wall, and then he slowly aimed it downward.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and started to look around to find what that human general was aiming his arrow at.
Then Tang Li Xue quickly found out that the human general was actually aiming at one of their Fox Generals!
"Damn, that sneaky bast*rd~! Watch out~!" Tang Li Xue hastily shouted out loud to warn them, but unfortunately, it was already toote!
The human general injected his fierce Qi into his bow and arrow until they released a faint white light, then the human general finally unleashed his arrow!
SWOOOSSH~!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in agitation as she swiftly created anotheryer of sturdy protective stone wall using her [Mother Earth''s Gift]!
BOOOOOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
However, the human general''s arrow easily sted apart the twoyers of sturdy protective stone walls in just a blink of an eye!
PUUUUFFF~!
The powerful arrow still did not stop and continued to pierce through the head of one of the fox generals, then exploded leaving a huge crater on the ground!
When the fox troops and the other fox generals werepletely dumbfounded, the human general who stood on the top of Human Pce''s wall shouted his order again: "SHOOT THEM ALL TO DEATH~!"
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
Tens of thousands of Spirit Cannons on the top of Human Pce''s wall were shooting destructive blue light in unison!
Tang Li Xue tried to urge her [Mother Earth''s Gift] to erect another defensive stone wall as quickly as she could, but no matter how fast she was, she would never be able to match the speed of blue light shooting out by those Spirit Cannons!
Tens of thousands of destructive blue energy rays bombarded the battlefield, turning the entire ce into a huge meat grinder to crush all of the iing fox troops mercilessly.
More than a hundred thousand lives of human soldiers and fox troops were instantly lost in less than one breath!
Of course, the deaths of fox troops were several times more numerous than the human soldiers, so the human generals in the Human Pce certainly thought that the sacrifice of his soldiers waspletely worth it.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned pale as she felt extremely ufortable.
Thankfully, all of their dead bodies instantly turned into white lights and disappeared without leaving any broken limbs, innards, or internal organs scattered around the battlefield, if not, Tang Li Xue might really not be able to hold on anymore.
Tang Li Xue shook her head as she tried to clear her mind and think of her next moves carefully.
The Human Pce was only around forty to fifty miles away from them right now.
They were no longer far from the Human Pce, and normally, Tang Li Xue could easily reach it in a few minutes.
If she activated the [Wings of Freedom] buff plus entered [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya plus [Wind Guardian Blessing], she could even reach it in less than one minute.
But those human general''s deadly arrows and tens of thousands of Spirit Cannons made this distance of forty to fifty miles seem unattainable to them.
"Sigh... Unfortunately, Yaya and Phoenix of Pride are currently still resting after being hit by the bacsh from [War Goddess Mode]." Tang Li Xue muttered in a concerned tone.
''No other choice... It looks like it is time to implement n B!'' Tang Li Xue thought in her heart.
Tang Li Xue used her [Mother Earth''s Gift] once again and created another protective stone wall, but this time, she only nned to use this as a diversion!
[Water Mirage] activated~!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure split into many identical clones in that instant!
So many Tang Li Xue''s clones swiftly ran in different directions and spread out all over the battlefield, making the fierce battlefield even more chaotic than before!
Even the other fox generals were confused by what Tang Li Xue had done since Tang Li Xue never told them anything about her n B!
Just like what Tang Li Xue had expected, the Human General repeated his previous action and took down another fox general with its deadly arrow!
Meanwhile, the third salvo of the Spirit Cannons managed to wipe out another tens of thousands of fox troops in an instant!
Many of Tang Li Xue''s? [Water Mirage] clones got destroyed into a puddle of water because of it, leaving only a few of them scattered around the battlefield.
Their 700,000 fox troops had been reduced to less than 500,000 fox troops right now.
At this rate, their entire fox army would probably bepletely wiped out before they could reach the Human Pce!
The mint-colored fox was already very anxious and scolded Tang Li Xue: "What is that stupid fox doing?! Why didn''t she create another stone protection wall?!"
Without Tang Li Xue making another stone wall from her [Mother Earth''s Gift], the human soldiers on the top of the Human Pce''s wall could shoot their Spirit Cannons freely without any obstruction!
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
The fox troops got ughtered even more rapidly than before under the barrage attacks of the Spirit Cannons!
SWOOOSSHHH~! PUUUUFFF~!
Another fox general got killed by the human general''s deadly arrow!
So far, there were already three fox generals who died under the human general''s deadly arrows, leaving only four fox generals on the battlefield including the mint-colored fox and Tang Li Xue!
The situation had bepletely hopeless for the fox army''s side, and even the rest of fox generals already considered whether they should grit their fangs and continue to charge forward fearlessly or tuck their tails between their legs and retreat hastily from here.
"Bast*rd~! We, Fox Race, are not a bunch of cowards~! I choose to charge forward and die bravely rather than run away in shame and die while getting shot from behind~!" One of the fox generals shouted out loud valiantly.
The fox general''s courageous words awaken the fighting spirit of the other fox generals and all of the fox troops, then they howled out loud in anger and charged forward to the Human Pce in high spirits.
Unfortunately, their brave spirits and courageous words were not enough to change the oue on the battlefield.
The human general''s arrow easily took the life of another fox general, while the tens of thousands of Spirit Cannons mercilessly reaped the lives of fox troops.
Just when the total number of the fox troops fell to less than 300,000, somethingpletely unexpected suddenly happened!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
A violent earthquake shook the Human Pce''s wall all of a sudden!
Countless thin cracks slowly spread on the entire Human Pce''s wall!
Under the huge Human Pce''s wall, a small silver furry figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere!
"Break it down for me~!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she urged [Mother Earth''s Gift] to increase the power of the violent earthquake!
Those human soldiers and human generals on top of Human Pce''s wall quickly realized that Tang Li Xue was the one who did it, so Tang Li Xue immediately decided to get more serious!
She must break down this Human Pce''s wall before those fierce human generalse down from the wall and deal with her!
[Earth Breaking Hammer]~!
An enormous stone pir burst out from the ground and crashed heavily onto the Human Pce''s wall!
BBAAAAAANNNGG~!
The tall and sturdy Human Pce''s wall finally could not hold on anymore and crumbled apart under Tang Li Xue''s assaults!
Yes, Tang Li Xue''s n B was to use her [Water Mirage] as a distraction, and her real self secretly activated [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment] and swiftly charged toward the Human Pce''s wall as fast as she could with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
Then after that, she would only need to take down this Human Pce''s wall as soon as possible before those human generals could stop her!
If anyone asked why Tang Li Xue had not done this since the very beginning, it was because she did not want to take risks if she was not forced by the previous hopeless situation.
If Tang Li Xue''s n B was discovered by any of those humans, before she could take down the Human Pce''s wall, she would bepletely trapped alone in the middle of the human generals and human troops!
But this time, Tang Li Xue has already calcted the timing very carefully.
After she took down the Human Pce''s wall, the other fox generals and all of the fox troops were already close enough to the Human Pce right now, and they could assist her in time before she could be besieged by all of the human generals and human troops!
''All right, everything is still on the right track~!'' Tang Li Xue muttered in her heart as she took a nce in the direction of Human Pce''s building.
''I am counting on all of you, so do not let me down~!'' Tang Li Xue silently whispered.
There were less than 300,000 fox troops and 3 fox generals left including Tang Li Xue herself, and they had to face around 700,000 human troops and several fierce human generals.
The Human Pce was extremely huge andplex. It was filled with the guarding human troops scattered everywhere.
Moreover, they did not even have any clue about the exact location of the Human Race g.
That was why Tang Li Xue secretly sent out fifty special troops with the speed-type divine ability and equipped with her strategic-type talismans to search for the Human Race g hidden within the Human Pce!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down, and then she red vigntly at the two approaching human generals.
Chapter 599 599: Desperate Battle Against Two Fierce Human Generals!
Chapter 599 Chapter 599: Desperate Battle Against Two Fierce Human Generals!
The fiercer chaotic war broke right under the rubble of the copsed Human Pce''s wall.
The other two fox generals were already fighting against the human generals and several other humanmanders.
The mint-colored fox general actually has a quite powerful set of wind-elemental type divine abilities. It could fight against one human general plus several humanmanders without being overwhelmed.
While the brown-colored fox general has a very annoying set of wood-type divine abilities. It was also currently fighting fiercely against one human general and several humanmanders by continuously growing man-eater flowers, binding vines, and tree-like war creatures.
Even though their fox troops werepletely outnumbered by the human troops, but around a third of human troops were actually still guarding inside the Human Pce.
Moreover, it was simply impossible for all 700,000 human troops to fight head-on against the 300,000 fox troops under this copsed wall of Human Pce since the space here was too narrow.
Tang Li Xue only managed to tear down around 40 to 50 meters of the Human Pce''s wall. Well, it could not be helped since the effective range of her [Mother Earth''s Gift] was quite limited.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw that the current situation was actually not as bad as she would have expected it to be.
Meanwhile, the two fierce human generals already charged toward Tang Li Xue while roaring out loud gantly.
One of the two fierce-looking human generals has a long ck beard and wields a mighty golden dragon crescent halberd, while the other human general has an extremely burly figure and wields a pair of heavy maces.
Tang Li Xue immediately condensed a pair of deep blue [Sun Dragon ws], and created a pair of white broadswords using her [Energy Maniption].
The burly human general swung his heavy maces with all of his mighty strength to sh head-on against the pair of [Sun Dragon ws] holding the white broadswords!
Tang Li Xue skillfully controlled her [Sun Dragon ws] to wave around the white broadswords.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
BAAAAAANG~! BAAAAAANG~!
Unexpectedly, the pair of white broadswords were shattered to pieces almost instantly, and the [Sun Dragon ws] were sted away by the burly human general''s extremely powerful attack!
But Tang Li Xue did not have time to worry about that since the long-bearded general was already thrusting his golden dragon crescent halberd to Tang Li Xue.
The movement of his golden dragon crescent halberd was extremely fast as if it vanished from everyone''s vision all of a sudden!
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] sensed a great threat from the vanishing golden dragon crescent halberd, so she hastily activated all of her talisman buffs without any hesitation!
[Talisman of Giant Strength], [Talisman of Lightning Speed], and [Talisman of Iron Skin] activated~!
Three of the bunch of tree bark talismans that were tied to her neck with vines were broken into pieces after Tang Li Xue activated them.
After that, Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure swiftly moved away using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] from the long-bearded general!
Tang Li Xue thought she barely managed to avoid the long-bearded general''s halberd attack, but...
PUUUUFFF~!
-6419!
Blood suddenly spurted out from Tang Li Xue''s neck!
Tang Li Xue quickly covered her neck with her paw and used [Talisman of Regeneration +2] to heal the wound on her neck.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she realized that the wound was not deep enough, and it quickly recovered in less than a few seconds.
''Damn it~! That was really dangerous! If the wound is a few inches deeper, I would have already been eliminated from this Fox Hunting Festival!'' Tang Li Xue screamed in panic inside her mind.
Tang Li Xue also realized that these two fierce human generals were actually many times more powerful than the heavy cavalrymander she had already defeated before!
Especially since these two fierce human generals have extremely highpatibility with each other.
The burly general wielding a pair of heavy maces has unrivaled strength, while the long-bearded general wielding a golden dragon crescent halberd has peerless attack speed.
Their overall team-upbination strength was clearly not a mere one plus one equal to two!
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched as she thought: ''This... might be bad for me... Fighting both of them at once without the help of Yaya or Phoenix of Pride is clearly too much for me!''
Unfortunately, two fierce human generals would never give Tang Li Xue any time to think or take a breath. Both of them shed toward Tang Li Xue and swung their weapons at her!
The burly general was attacking from her right side, while the long-bearded general was attacking from her left side!
Tang Li Xue hastily created another pair of [Sun Dragon ws] holding a pair of white broadswords!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Redirection Flow!
CLACK~! CLACK~! CLACK~! CLACK~!
The white broadswords in the grasp of [Sun Dragon ws] were dancing rapidly to redirect away the rapid shes and thrusts from the long-bearded general''s crescent halberd from Tang Li Xue.
At the same time, Tang Li Xue used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to avoid the heavy maces'' attacks from the burly general, and then she unleashed a counterattack on the burly general!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
BAAAAAAANNGG~!
Tang Li Xue''s paw managed tond a heavy strike at the burly general''s waist!
Even though the burly general''s body waspletely covered with ck armor from head to toe, but Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Shattering Strike] was specialized to pierce through any defense and directly hurt the internal organs.
However, the burly general only took a step back, then he suddenly jumped and swung down his heavy maces toward Tang Li Xue again!
''This bast*rd could remain unaffected~?! Are your internal organs made from steel or what?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in surprise.
The most annoying thing was that this burly general''s heavy mace attack was too powerful andpletely unblockable for the current Tang Li Xue.
''Since I cannot defend against it, then I will just make it stop~!'' Tang Li Xue whispered in her heart.
[Mystic Whisper]~!
"Stop moving~!" The [Mystic Whisper]''s voice prated straight into the burly general''s consciousness, and he suddenly halted his movement for a few moments.
Tang Li Xue quickly took this chance to distance herself farther from the burly general.
But the long-bearded general already pushed away Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon ws] and chased after Tang Li Xue!
Surprisingly, this stupid-looking burly general has a quite high Spirit stat, so it actually costs quite a lot of energy to stop him for a while.
Tang Li Xue skillfully controlled her [Sun Dragon ws] to attack from the long-bearded general''s back, while she nned to use herself as a distraction andunched a head-on attack on the long-bearded general!
[Moonlight sh]~!
While the golden dragon crescent halberd in the long-bearded general''s grasp once again vanished from everyone''s view!
CLANK~! CLANK~! CLANK~! CLANK~!
Tang Li Xue''s ws shed head-to-head against the long-bearded general''s crescent halberd!
However, her ws were not as hard and fast as the long-bearded general''s crescent halberd. Not only did her paws feel very painful, but she also received many graze wounds on her silver furry body.
Just when Tang Li Xue thought that the sneak attack from her [Sun Dragon ws] would seed, the burly general suddenly swung his heavy maces to repel them!
BAAAAANG~! BAAAAAANG~!
Her [Sun Dragon ws] and its pair of white broadswords were crushed to pieces for the second time under the burly general''s powerful heavy mace attack.
Tang Li Xue felt really disappointed that her sneak attack failed tond a fatal blow to the long-bearded general, but before she could do anything, the long-bearded general let out another crescent halberd''s vanishing thrust toward her!
PUUUUFFF~!
Tang Li Xue already created a transparent protection barrier with her [Energy Maniption], but the long-bearded general''s vanishing thrust pierced through her transparent protection barrier and stabbed right into her shoulder.
In fact, if Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] had not given her any extreme danger warning, the long-bearded general''s vanishing thrust might already pierced right through her chest.
Meanwhile, the burly general was already standing at Tang Li Xue''s right side and swung his heavy mace toward Tang Li Xue''s head!
Tang Li Xue felt very suffocated by their relentless fierce attacks, but there was really nothing she could do right now to counter them!
When the burly general''s heavy mace almost hit Tang Li Xue''s head, Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs and activated her [Shadow sh] to teleport to the shadow of the fox troop 100 meters away from her.
Tang Li Xue coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood as her blood flooded her injured lung, and she hastily activated another [Talisman of Regeneration +2] to recover her wounds.
The two fierce human generals already dashed toward Tang Li Xue, but this time, Tang Li Xue did not n to let them get close to her so easily!
[Mother Earth''s Gift]~!
[Mountain Pit] plus [Earth Spikes]~!
Both fierce human generals along with some of the human troops fell into a huge deep hole filled with sharp [Earth Spikes]!
All of the human troops that fell into the deep hole filled with sharp [Earth Spikes] were instantly killed.
But the burly human general waspletely unharmed. On the contrary, the sharp [Earth Spikes] that stabbed his body were shattered to pieces as if they shed with an indestructible steel statue, not a living human body.
"Wait a minute... Where is the other human general?!" Tang Li Xue said in surprise.
Unfortunately, it was already a bit toote for Tang Li Xue to realize it since the long-bearded general already arrived right above Tang Li Xue and thrust his golden dragon crescent halberd toward Tang Li Xue''s head from above!
Chapter 600 600: Timely Reinforcement!
Chapter 600 Chapter 600: Timely Reinforcement!
It was already toote for Tang Li Xue to dodge the long-bearded general''s crescent halberd attack, so she could only hastily use her [Energy Maniption] to create a transparent defensive barrier.
But Tang Li Xue knew that it was far from enough to block the long-bearded general''s vanishing thrust, so she decided to activate the [Arcane Tunic]''s equipment skill, [Arcane Barrier].
(Arcane Barrier: Create a spell shield that reduces the damage taken by half. Duration: 30 Seconds. Cooldown: 20 minutes.)
CLAAAANNKK~!
The long-bearded general''s crescent halberd easily broke through the transparent defensive barrier and pierced Tang Li Xue''s shoulder!
The long-bearded general actually nned to pierce through Tang Li Xue''s head and brain to kill her instantly, but Tang Li Xue could sense it a few milliseconds ahead with her [Extrasensory Perception] and reflexively tilted her head a bit.
So, the long-bearded general''s crescent halberd only managed to graze Tang Li Xue''s cheek and pierced her shoulder instead.
The long-bearded general did not pull out his crescent halberd from Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and used all of his strength to push it deeper!
Tang Li Xue''s fresh blood sttered out from her deep wound, but she did not retreat.
On the contrary, she forcefully bit the crescent halberd, so the long-bearded general would not get away from her and used [Sun Dragon Fangs]!
The deep blue me dragon head condensed right above Tang Li Xue and the long-bearded general. It opened its jaw filled with sharp teeth and bit down at the long-bearded general!
BOOOOOOOMMM~!
Just when Tang Li Xue thought that her attack would seed, a heavy mace suddenly flew and smashed apart the deep blue me dragon head!
The burly general had already jumped out from the deep hole a few seconds ago. Not only did he help out his teammate by throwing one of his heavy maces, he even dashed toward Tang Li Xue and swung his other heavy mace at her!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in annoyance. She wanted to use [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to retreat further and keep her distance from these two human generals.
But the long-bearded general seemed to have already guessed that Tang Li Xue would definitely retreat further from them again, so he spun his crescent halberd and pushed it down with all of his strength.
The long-bearded general''s sudden move made his crescent halberd pierce deeper into Tang Li Xue''s shoulder, and it also made Tang Li Xue stagger for a few moments.
These few moments were more than enough for the burly general tond a fatal blow on Tang Li Xue''s head!
BOOOOOOOMM~!
The burly general''s heavy mace mmed mercilessly onto Tang Li Xue''s head!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (0/3)]
The power of the burly general''s heavy mace strike was so great that Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure was thrown off more than a hundred meters away!
If not for [Sun And Moon Aegis]''sst deadly blow protection, Tang Li Xue''s head would surely have been crushed under the burly general''s heavy mace strike like an exploding watermelon.
Even right now, Tang Li Xue still felt extremely dizzy as if her brain was still shaking violently.
Tang Li Xue held her head with both of her paws and shook it around to relieve the extreme dizziness while staggering like a drunken fox.
The two fierce human generals thought that Tang Li Xue would certainly be killed under the previous heavy mace attack. They were very surprised when they found out that Tang Li Xue was actually still alive.
The two fierce human generals immediately took this chance when Tang Li Xue had not recovered yet tounch another lethal attack on her!
This time, Tang Li Xue no longer had [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection!
If the two fierce human generals managed tond another lethal blow on Tang Li Xue, she would definitely get eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival!
Her [Extrasensory Perception] had already given an extreme danger warning, but Tang Li Xue''s extremely dizzy mind could not even think clearly yet, so she could not do anything to defend herself against the two fierce human generals!
The two fierce human generals swung their weapons at Tang Li Xue''s head at the same time!
PPUUUUUFF~!
"AAARRGGGGHHH~!"
Tang Li Xue''s extreme dizziness slowly cleared up after a couple more seconds.
Then she saw a firm small ck figure already standing steadily right in front of her like a dependable guardian.
"Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in an excited tone.
"Nyaaa Miiaaoww~!" (I am hungry~!)
Tang Li Xueughed at Little Loki''s cute act and hastily took out a few mid-tier spirit stones from the small pouch made from the leaves that were tied to her neck.
These few mid-tier spirit stones were made by her martial soul,? [Golden Winged Serpent], with its skill, [Refining Spiritual Energy].
(Refining Spiritual Energy: Golden Winged Serpent has a high affinity with spiritual energy, and it can refine the surrounding spiritual energy to condense spirit stones. The quantity and the purity of spirit stones will increase along with the Golden Winged Serpent''s power.)
After recovering quite well from its rather severe wounds a few hours ago, her [Golden Winged Serpent] finally could help her produce some spirit stones as Little Loki''s temporary ration.
Tang Li Xue gave all of her mid-tier spirit stones to feed Little Loki.
Even though Little Loki was still far from being satisfied, but at least, it had enough energy to fight for some time right now.
Tang Li Xue took a nce at the two fierce human generals and saw several bleeding gashes on their bodies.
It seemed when she was still half-unconscious before, Little Loki saved her by unleashing sudden attacks on those two fierce human generals.
Little Loki actually intended to split their bodies apart with its [Scythe w Qi] just now.
But it was never expected that these two humans were more powerful than it thought that even its [Scythe w Qi] unleashed from such a close range actually failed to cut them to pieces.
"All right, Little Loki~! Which one do you want? You can choose first~!" Tang Li Xue said while patting Little Loki''s head gently.
Little Loki licked its pawzily while secretly sizing the two fierce human generals in front of it.
Little Loki actually did not really care since it did not take these two fierce human generals seriously.
But Little Loki felt that Tang Li Xue might have a hard time fighting against the long-bearded general, so it decided to face him instead.
Tang Li Xue sensed Little Loki''s disdain, so she hastily reminded it: "Be more careful~! They have not fought seriously yet until now since they have not used their martial soul or unleashed their ultimate martial art yet."
Mi Nyaaaw~! " (I know~!)
Little Loki sprinted toward the long-bearded general with lightning speed while Tang Li Xue shed with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and appeared right beside the burly general.
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
BAAAAANNG~!
Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Shattering Strike] struck the burly general''s waist and wounded his internal organs directly!
The burly general coughed out a mouthful of blood and red at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with killing intent.
The burly general swung his pair of heavy maces angrily at Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue easily avoided them.
''This muscr human general might have herculean strength and steel-like muscles, but his movements are slow. The reason why his strike could hit me before was because that long-bearded old general kept interrupting my every movement.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Tang Li Xue condensed another pair of deep blue [Sun Dragon ws], but this time, she created dozens of white broadswords with her [Energy Maniption] andpressed them into one white broadsword!
Thispressed white broadsword was many times sharper and harder than the previous ones she had already created!
A pair of deep blue [Sun Dragon ws] grabbed thepressed white broadsword and pointed it at the burly general as if it was provoking him.
The burly general grinned with a cruel expression and shouted out loud to summon out his martial soul!
Yes, he finally decided to go all out against Tang Li Xue!
The burly general''s martial soul was actually a huge silver-colored lizard like a Tyrannosaurus Rex, no it was much bigger than even the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Tang Li Xue''s expression became more solemn. She thought she had to face this silver Tyrannosaurus Rex...
CLANG~!
Who knew that the burly generalbined his pair of heavy maces into one and the huge silver-colored lizard merged with thebined heavy maces!
"What the hell is that~?! They actuallybined into one~?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in shock and frowned deeper as her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed a much greater threating from thebined heavy maces.
"URRRAAAAAAAHHH~!" The burly general shouted as he suddenly swung down hisbined heavy maces.
The veins on his entire hands popped out as if he was swinging an unbearably heavy mace!
Tang Li Xue felt confused since she had already retreated more than twenty meters from the burly general.
She did not understand what was the burly general doing since his mace attack would certainly not be able to reach this far.
However, the mace''s extremely heavy head suddenly flew swiftly toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue: ''?!''
Tang Li Xue never expected that thebined heavy maces could still actually be used like this!
The heavy mace''s handle and the extremely heavy head were connected with a thick metal chain, so the burly general could easily pull it back or spin it around like a il!
Chapter 601 601: [Phantom Splitters]!
Chapter 601 Chapter 601: [Phantom Splitters]!
Tang Li Xue never expected that the burly human general still had such a surprising hidden trick like this.
All previous attacks from the burly human general were almost unblockable for Tang Li Xue, let alone now after the burly human general merged his martial soul with his weapon!
[Wings of Freedom] activated~!
Tang Li Xue hastily used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to avoid the mace''s extremely heavy head that was flying swiftly toward her!
But the heavy mace head suddenly made a sharp turn in the air and chased after Tang Li Xue as if it could track Tang Li Xue''s movement!
A silhouette of a hideous silver lizard head appeared on the mace''s extremely heavy head as it bore its fangs at Tang Li Xue!
"Damn it~!" Tang Li Xue cursed as she could no longer avoid the heavy mace head since it was already too close to her.
Since she could no longer dodge it, Tang Li Xue decided to block it instead!
''I do not believe that I cannot block it with all of my divine abilities~!'' Tang Li Xue thought full of confidence in her own divine abilities.
[Sun Dragon ws] holding apressed white broadsword plus [Sun Dragon Fangs]~!
[Mother Earth''s Gift], Three Layers of Thick Defensive Stone Wall~!
[Energy Maniption], Transparent Protection Barrier~!
[Spider Scorpion Transformation] activated~!
A pair of [Sun Dragon ws] executed a defensive sword skill with apressed white broadsword to parry the heavy mace head, while the [Sun Dragon Fangs] tried to push it away.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Redirection Flow!
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The extremely heavy mace head smashed the white broadsword, [Sun Dragon ws], and [Sun Dragon Fangs] apart in only a single moment!
[Three Layers of Thick Defensive Stone Wall] destroyed to pieces in the blink of an eye!
[Transparent Protection Barrier] shattered to dust in one blow!
Tang Li Xue raised her paw and decided to strike the heavy mace head down first with her offensive skill!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
BAAAAAAANNNG~! CRACK~!
Tang Li Xue''s paw was broken along with her entire shoulder, and the extremely heavy mace head mercilessly mmed onto her chest.
Tang Li Xue spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood as her small furry figure was sted off more than a hundred meters away.
Even with the protection of [Spider Scorpion Transformation]''s thick carapace, Tang Li Xue could feel that all the bones on her chest were shattered to pieces.
Well, it was not that bad since at least she was still alive right now.
"Cough, cough, cough... I will definitely be a goner if that hits me for the second time..." Tang Li Xue muttered as she coughed out another few mouthfuls of blood.
Tang Li Xue slowly got up again while activating another [Talisman of Regeneration +2] tied to her neck with vines.
But the burly human general already spun the extremely heavy mace head faster and faster, then threw it at Tang Li Xue for the second time!
.....
Meanwhile, the situation of Little Loki''s battle against the long-bearded general was actuallypletely reversed from Tang Li Xue''s battle against the burly general.
The long-bearded human general swiftly swung his golden dragon crescent halberd rapidly in a row to split Little Loki.
Who knew that he actually really managed to split Little Loki in two with his golden dragon crescent halberd?!
"Tsk~! I thought this beast was quite strong." The long-bearded human general disdainfully said.
"Nyaaa~!"
But after Little Loki''s tiny ck figure was cut in two, it had be two Little Lokis instead!
Yes, there were two Little Lokis sitting leisurely right in front of the long-bearded general right now!
The long-bearded human general frowned as he thrust his crescent halberd on the two Little Lokis!
[Rapid Vanishing Thrusts]~!
However, two Little Lokis had actually vanished at the same time when the long-bearded general used his battle skill!
[Instant Teleportation]~!
PUUUFFF~! PUUUFFF~!
Two Little Lokis instantly teleported right above the long-bearded human general, and the two of them unleashed [Scythe w Qi] in unison!
The [Scythe w Qi] from two Little Lokis managed to tear apart the long-bearded human general''s ck armor and left criss-cross deep wounds on his chest!
The long-bearded human general''s wounds were so deep that anyone could see his internal organs and his beating heart with the naked eye.
Two Little Lokis sat leisurely again on the ground while licking their paw to clean their bloody ws.
Even though Little Loki looked calm on the surface, but in fact, it was actually very amazed by the new divine ability it had just gotten from the round crystal fruit that Tang Li Xue fed to it before.
[Phantom Splitters]...
Those two Little Lokis that the long-bearded human general was currently facing were not even the real Little Loki.
Those two were Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitters]. Not only did they possess 50% of Little Loki''s overall strength, but they could use all of Little Loki''s abilities... well, except for [Heaven''s Devour] of course, since only the real Little Loki could use it.
With Little Loki''s limited amount of energy, it could only create two [Phantom Splitters], but if it had more energy it could create more of them.
Even Little Loki itself did not know how many [Phantom Splitters] it could create if its energy waspletely full.
But speaking about a full Taotie itself was a big joke since Taotie would never feel full.
The long-bearded human general shouted out loud all of a sudden as he began to summon out his martial soul!
He finally stopped looking down at Little Loki and decided to go all out!
Completely different from the burly human general, the long-bearded human general''s martial soul was actually a Golden Lightning Sable!
The size of Golden Lightning Sable was not that big, but it was continuously emitting terrifying golden lightning that destroyed everything it touched!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The Golden Lightning Sable merged into one with the long-bearded human general''s weapon, the golden dragon crescent halberd!
Right in that instant, the long-bearded human general''s body was d in terrifying golden lightning!
Even the criss-cross deep wounds on his chest had stopped bleeding.
When the long-bearded human general opened his eyes, the spark of golden lightning shone through his eyes.
The long-bearded human general''s figure suddenly disappeared all of a sudden!
His movement speed and his golden dragon crescent halberd''s speed had soared by many folds after he merged his weapon with his martial soul!
CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
His body and his golden dragon crescent halberd also kept emitting terrifying lethal golden lightning!
Surprisingly, the long-bearded human general actually appeared again right behind the real Little Loki who was currently hiding with its stealth skill!
The long-bearded human general swung his golden dragon crescent halberd toward the real Little Loki with breathtaking speed!
The current speed of his golden dragon crescent halberd was at least more than ten timespared to his previous vanishing thrust!
The long-bearded human general thought he would surely be able to kill the real Little Loki with this extremely swift attack wrapped with extremely lethal golden lightning!
The long-bearded human general''s current attack was definitely an unblockable and unavoidable sure-kill strike!
Well... At least, for other creatures, it might be so...
Unfortunately, what he currently faced was Little Loki...
The long-bearded human general waspletely dumbfounded in that instant when his golden dragon crescent halberd really vanished!
Uh, it was not like the previous vanishing thrust. This time, his weapon had disappeared for real!
Little Loki casually licked its lips in satisfaction while thinking in disdain: ''Human, just because I cannot eat anyone does not mean that I cannot eat your weapon! Umm, it should be okay, right?''
Actually, Little Loki never nned to devour anything, but the long-bearded human general suddenly shoved food into its mouth on his own, so how could Little Loki refuse, right?!
''Well, it really could not be helped this time. It is really not my fault, okay?!'' Little Loki tried to deny its mistake in its mind.
The long-bearded human general not only lost his main weapon but also his martial soul that was fused with his main weapon at once!
The criss-cross deep wounds on the long-bearded human general''s chest were bleeding even more profusely than before.
Even the long-bearded human general''s spirit was impacted so much that he becamepletely unresponsive for now.
Little Loki felt bored when it saw the nk-looking long-bearded human general, so it decided to finish him off by cutting his neck using its [Scythe w Qi].
PUUUUFFF~!
The long-bearded human general''s head fell onto the ground, and his headless body kneeled down in front of Little Loki. Then his head and his headless body transformed into a group of white light and disappeared from there.
Little Loki greedily licked its lips again and felt unfulfilled as it recalled the taste of the long-bearded human general''s golden dragon crescent halberd merged with his martial soul.
Little Loki licked its paw to clean sticky blood from its w.
It yawnedzily while taking a nce at Tang Li Xue who currently faced so much difficulty in the battle against the burly human general.
Then its eyes shone excitedly when it saw the burly human general waving around hisbined heavy mace weapon.
''That looks really delicious~! Oh, no... I mean that looks really dangerous, so I should help her out as soon as possible~!'' Little Loki thought in its mind while putting on a smug expression.
Little Loki immediately used its [Instant Teleportation] without any hesitation and teleported right in front of Tang Li Xue.
When the burly human general threw his extremely heavy mace head onto Tang Li Xue for the second time, Little Loki suddenly appeared right in front of Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was very surprised and instantly became panicked.
"Watch out, Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue shouted out loud to warn Little Loki.
Chapter 602 602: Confusing Formation!
Chapter 602 Chapter 602: Confusing Formation!
Tang Li Xue desperately tried to save Little Loki, but the burly general''s extremely heavy mace head was already too close to Little Loki.
It was already far toote for Tang Li Xue to do anything to save Little Loki.
Just when Tang Li Xue thought the huge and heavy mace head would ram into Little Loki''s small furry body, Little Loki suddenly yawnedzily and opened its tiny mouth...
GULP~!
The extremely heavy mace head was several times bigger than Little Loki''s small furry body, but it could actually get swallowed by Little Loki ''identally''!
Tang Li Xue''s movement suddenly stiffened, and her mouth twitched in astonishment.
Different from the long-bearded human general, the burly human general did not be vegetative or unresponsive, but his expression turned extremely pale in an instant as if he was receiving a painful bacsh after Little Loki swallowed his heavy mace head.
The burly human general gnashed his teeth and pulled the heavy mace handle in his grasp with all of his strength.
The heavy mace''s chain still connected with Little Loki''s mouth, so Little Loki''s tiny furry body flew toward the burly human general at breakneck speed by the burly human general''s force.
The other side of the burly human general''sbined heavy maces still had another extremely heavy mace head, so he raised it high with both of his hands and nned to smash Little Loki using the other side of the extremely heavy mace head.
The burly human general roared with a voice filled with anger and a murderous aura as he swung down hisbined heavy maces using all of his strength toward Little Loki.
"Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a tone filled with worry.
However, the burly human general''s weapon, thebined heavy maces, once again mysteriously disappeared all of a sudden!
Then Little Loki''s small furry figure split into three right at that moment!
[Scythe w Qi] x3~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Even though the burly human general reacted too slowly because of the violent bacsh of losing his entire main weapon and martial soul, but his sturdy muscr body was still extremely tough.
It was clearly not something that Little Loki could cut so easily with one attack, but the three Little Lokis unleashed their [Scythe w Qi] at the same time toward his neck and finally managed to cut off the burly human general''s head.
The burly human general''s head and his headless body dispersed into a group of white light and dissipated from the battlefield.
Three Little Lokis merged back into one, and turned around to look at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue ran to approach Little Loki and started to scold it with a nervous tone mixed with concern: "You, you... Are you crazy?! Why did you use ''that'' in front of these many... people and foxes?!"
Little Loki rolled its eyes and patted its chest proudly as if saying: ''You do not need to worry~! I am sure no one will notice it~!''
Little Loki actually already made sure that its actions werepletely inconspicuous to the others.
Well... In fact, Little Loki really did not use its [Heaven''s Devour] this time, but it only ''ate'' those human general''s weapons normally.
Different from using [Heaven''s Devour], some creatures with special attributes like space, metal, or darkness could actually eat like this too, so Little Loki did not worry that anyone would suspect it at all.
Of course, the eating abilities of those creatures would only work for solid objects or treasures.
If Little Loki swallowed everything wantonly without any limitation such as all types of elemental attacks, or it swallowed those foxes participating in the Foxes Hunting Festival, then they really died and did not get sent back to the ce where theye from... That would be apletely different matter.
Its identity as Taotie''s offspring would certainly be discovered by the higher-ups from Fox Race sooner orter if it really did that.
Tang Li Xue did not know about it, so her anger instantly soared into her head out of her worry about Little Loki, but when she wanted to scold Little Loki for its reckless behavior again...
BANG~! PUUUUFF~!
Another human general had actually managed to defeat one of their fox generals!
Currently, there were only two fox generals left on this battlefield, Tang Li Xue and the mint-colored fox!
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper, and she started to carefully consider what next actions she needed to take to win this treasure game.
Meanwhile, Little Loki already licked its lips and stared greedily at the other fierce human general as if it were staring at a rare delicacy.
Tang Li Xue quickly pulled Little Loki away while saying: "No, stop thinking about fighting! You should go with me to find the Human Race g!"
Rather than wasting her time fighting against those human generals, Tang Li Xue chose to bring Little Loki to find the Human Race g as soon as possible!
The current situation would deteriorate in an instant if those several human generals and a few million human troops that were currently attacking the Fox Pce suddenly came back to defend their own Human Pce!
With the help of Little Loki''s new divine ability, maybe they could find the Human Race g faster before that happened.
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure instantly turned invisible when she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment]!
Little Loki jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s back while it also activated its stealth-type divine ability and turned invisible.
Tang Li Xue activated amunication talisman tied to her neck to contact her infiltration troops while kept sprinting deeper into the Human Pce.
"Did you find the location of the g yet?" Tang Li Xue asked through themunication talisman.
"Not yet, General~! We had already searched almost all of the rooms and buildings around the periphery but failed to find any clues. It seems the g is located deeper inside the pce, but the guards be much denser as we go deeper into the pce." One of the infiltration troops reported to Tang Li Xue from theirmunication talisman.
"I got it~! Let''s start our n C~!" Tang Li Xue replied and hung up their connection.
It was Tang Li Xue''s order to never infiltrate too deep into the pce, because Tang Li Xue also gave them another task to do.
The task of infiltration fox troops was not only to look for the location of the Human Race g but also to secretly put [Hidden Exploding Talismans] around.
Tang Li Xue''s n C was to let her infiltration fox troops make a lot ofmotion and draw the attention of those human troops inside the pce, so she could look for the Human Race g hidden inside the Human Pce more easily!
BOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOMM~!
The infiltration fox troops silently triggered all of the [Hidden Exploding Talismans], and many ces inside the pce exploded at the same time!
mes began to spread around very fast to burn other buildings!
ck smoke almost covered everyone''s vision, and many human troops already started to run around trying to put out the fire.
Tang Li Xue hastily took this chance to sneak into the deeper part of the Human Pce and swiftly looked for the Human Race g with Little Loki.
Little Loki already controlled its two [Phantom Splitters] clones to spread out and search for the Human Race g.
Tang Li Xue thought it should not be too hard for her to find the Human Race g since everyone was too busy to put out the mes right now, but she quickly found out that she was totally wrong about it.
The deeper area of this Human Pce was actually extremelyplicated, and Tang Li Xue instantly got lost after a few times circling around some areas.
"No way~! This is... a formation?! What kind of formation is this?! Illusion Formation?! Uhhh, no... It should be a special formation that makes me lose my way!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise and disbelief.
Tang Li Xue tried to pass through several walls with her [Ethereal Form] in a straight line, but she suddenly got back to where she juste from before.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in frustration and began to run in different random directions several times, but she always ran back to the starting ce again and again.
Or maybe it was just her feeling and all the ces actually looked the same? Tang Li Xue still did not have any clue about this at all.
Tang Li Xue started to feel dizzy, but she refused to give up and tried again repeatedly.
Even Little Loki frowned a bit when it saw the identical surrounding scene several times.
Little Loki slowly closed its eyes and tried to sense the location of its two [Phantom Splitters] clones.
Its two [Phantom Splitters] clones were actually not too far from it, and Little Loki found out that their surroundings werepletely identical to the ce it was currently located.
But knowing about this piece of information did not mean anything if Little Loki could not think of a way to break this formation.
Chapter 603 603: Just One Step Away From the Victory!
Chapter 603 Chapter 603: Just One Step Away From the Victory!
Little Loki conveyed the information it got from its two [Phantom Splitter] clones to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she tried to think of a way to break this confusing formation.
She could actually use her [Mapping Sense] skill to slowly survey this entire deeper area of Human Pce and find a gap to break this confusing formation, but it would take too much time!
The thing Tang Li Xuecked most right now was time!
Because the fire was spreading rapidly in many ces and buildings around the periphery of Human Pce, human troops had be too busy to put out the fire right now.
This might give Tang Li Xue some time to move around freely to search for the Human Race g in this deeper area of the Human Pce, but it also gave their fox army a momentary advantage to invade the Human Pce.
Although it looked like their fox army side seemed to have an upper hand at this moment, but this situation was bound to notst for long.
Because those millions of human troops and their human generals would have certainly already rushed on their way to return to this Human Pce!
If Tang Li Xue failed to find the Human Race g until they came back, then it would be a checkmate for their Fox Race.
"Damn it~! Is there something I can do to find the Human Race g quicker?!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a tone filled with frustration.
Then a light of inspiration suddenly shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
Her topaz blue eyes shone with excitement like a pair of blue stars as she pped her forehead with her paw and said whileughing in embarrassment: "Ah, I am really stupid~! How could I forget that I still have that~?! Ahahahaha~!"
After calming down, Tang Li Xue looked around carefully to find her target.
Even though, the guard in the deeper area of Human Pce became a lot thinner than before, but there were still quite a lot of patrolling guards roaming around.
However, no one of those patrolling guards realized that Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were running around right in front of their eyes since both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were in an invisible state.
"Little Loki help me to kill all of those patrolling guards quickly, but remember to leave that guard captain alive~! Do you understand?" Tang Li Xuemunicated with Little Loki through [Lock-On Telepathy].
"Mew Nyaaaww~!" (Okay, that''s easy~!)
Tang Li Xue nodded to Little Loki as she suddenly turned off her [Ethereal Form] and unleashed several flying swords with [Energy Maniption] from behind!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
In one sneak attack, Tang Li Xue instantly took down more than five patrolling guards at once!
But that was far from enough!
If one of these patrolling guards had enough time to whistle, many other guards would certainlye here to besiege Tang Li Xue and Little Loki soon.
Therefore, Tang Li Xue and Little Loki must take all of them down before they can whistle to call theirrades!
Little Loki already summoned back its two [Phantom Splitter] clones, and the three of them hastilyunched [Scythe w Qi] simultaneously to the patrolling guards!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
After taking the lives of three patrolling guards, Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones used [Instant Teleportation] to freely shuttle around unpredictably while kept unleashing their [Scythe w Qi] to kill the other patrolling guards!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue did not remain idle and used the [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to appear right in front of those patrolling guards instantly and unleashed her [Moonlight sh] to decimate several patrolling guards at once!
Those tens of patrolling guards did not even have any time to react or unsheath their weapons as all of them got in by Tang Li Xue and Little Loki in only a few seconds, leaving only the guard captain alone.
The guard captain hastily tried to whistle, but it was already a bit toote since Tang Li Xue was already so close to him.
"Stop moving~!" Tang Li Xue used her [Mystic Whisper] to control the guard captain without any hesitation.
After Tang Li Xue''s [Mystic Whisper] prated directly into his consciousness, the guard captain halted his movementpletely like a statue.
Tang Li Xue immediately checked her energy consumption after using [Mystic Whisper] on the guard captain and sighed in relief.
"Thankfully, the energy consumption is almost negligible. But it makes sense since the cultivation level of this guard captain is not high, so his Spirit stat should be much lower than mine." Tang Li Xue murmured her conclusion.
Since the energy consumption was within an eptable range for Tang Li Xue, she gave a moreplicated order to the guard captain with her [Mystic Whisper]: "Lead the way to the room where the Human Race g is kept~!"
The guard captain immediately turned around with a nk look and walked away.
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and quickly followed the guard captain from behind while checking the energy consumption again.
This time, the amount of energy consumption was more than ten times than before.
Tang Li Xue confirmed her previous guess that the simpler themand given to the target would consume less energy, while the moreplicated themand given to the target would consume a lot more energy.
Also, suicidemands like ''kill yourself'' or ''stab your throat'' would need the user to have several times higher Spirit stat than the target since the user must be able topletely overwrite the target''s subconscious and survival instinct.
Tang Li Xue sighed as sheined: "This [Mystic Whisper] is way moreplicated to master than I thought. Oh, well... Let''s just leave that forter, since it would surely need a lot of trial and error. I have something even more important to do right now!"
When they almost ran into another team of patrolling guards, Tang Li Xue and Little Loki quickly activated their stealth skills and turned invisible to hide from them.
The guard captain of the other patrolling guard team smiled at the guard captain who was mind-controlled by Tang Li Xue and politely greeted him: "Hello, good day brother~!"
Of course, the mind-controlled guard captain did not reply and kept walking with an expressionless nk look on his face.
The other guard captain instantly frowned suspiciously and tried to interrogate the mind-controlled guard captain, but the mind-controlled guard captainpletely ignored him again.
"This does not look good at all! It seems we can only silence them all! Let''s do it, Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue said to Little Loki with telepathy.
"Apprehend him~!" The other guard captain ordered his troops to catch the mind-controlled guard captain.
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue and Little Loki immediately made their move andunched a sneak attack from behind!
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki easily slew them all without any difficulty since the strength of these patrolling guards and their guard captain were only at ordinary troop level.
But their problem was not that¡
What gave Tang Li Xue a headache was that the mind-controlled guard captain would certainly meet with the other patrolling guards againter, and those patrolling guards would definitely get suspicious of him again if the mind-controlled guard captain did not reply to their greetings like before.
"Aisssh~! There is no other choice¡ Then just forget about this stealth thing and let''s break in tantly~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs and said with a cold tone.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had expected, the other team of patrolling guards greeted the mind-controlled guard captain, and they instantly became suspicious of him.
Tang Li Xue and Little Loki silenced all of them again before they could do anything.
After doing this for the fourth time, the other guard team identally saw Tang Li Xue and Little Loki was currently ying the passing-by patrolling guards from afar.
The sound of the whistle began to spread around the Human Pce and the number of patrolling guards quickly increased by many folds after some time.
Tang Li Xue and Little Loki could no longer hide since many other patrolling guards quickly found out that something was not right with the mind-controlled guard captain.
Tang Li Xue and Little Loki tried to silence all of them again, but there were simply too many of them this time, so some of them had time to call out for more reinforcement.
Tang Li Xue could hear clearly the sound of many footstepsing closer toward her.
It might not take long for her and Little Loki to getpletely surrounded by so many patrolling guards!
Just when Tang Li Xue felt really anxious, the mind-controlled guard captain finally brought them to the ce where the Human Race g was kept!
Tang Li Xue''s panic instantly turned into delight when she saw a golden g ced in the middle of the big hall.
Hundreds of patrolling guards already came and surrounded Tang Li Xue and Little Loki, but Tang Li Xue did not care and hastily activated her [Shadow sh] to teleport directly to the Human Race g''s shadow.
But when Tang Li Xue wanted to reach out her paws and grab the Human Race g...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
"Damn it~! What else now?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in rage, but the extreme danger warning given by her [Extrasensory Perception] made her not dare to approach the Human Race g carelessly anymore.
Chapter 604 604: Flag Guardian!
Chapter 604 Chapter 604: g Guardian!
Little Loki already jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s back and used its [Phantom Splitter] to create two clones.
Hundreds of human troops had encircled both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki, then they started to assault both of them from all directions.
Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones split up and rushed in three different directions. The three of them began to ughter the human army like a pack of wolves amidst a flock of sheep.
However, the speed of those human troopsing was too fast!
Even though Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones had killed those human troops as quickly as they could,? but their number kept increasing rapidly until they reached thousands in just a few minutes.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue herself had something much more important thing to do than fighting against the human army.
Little Loki desperately tried to create some space and buy some time for Tang Li Xue to grab the Human Race g, but it seemed like that would not be an easy task to do.
The golden g suddenly trembled violently and emitted ck smoke!
The ck smoke actually formed a five-meter humanoid entity and started to solidify.
"What the hell is that~?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in annoyance and frowned deeper as the danger warning given by her [Extrasensory Perception] became even more intense.
The five-meter humanoid entity d in majestic ck armor unsheathed the sword on his waist while taunting Tang Li Xue with a hoarse voice: "You filthy beast, how dare you sneak into my pce?! Now use your life to atone for your sins!"
Tang Li Xue: "....."
"What a cliche line before the big boss battle..." Tang Li Xue muttered with a solemn expression.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her agitated mood while staring at the golden shiny ancient military g behind the five-meter humanoid smoke entity.
Yes, that golden shiny ancient military g was her goal, the Human Race g!
Tang Li Xue did not know what kind of creature was this humanoid smoke entity, but she actually did not really need to defeat him at all.
As long as she managed to steal or grab away the Human Race g from him, then the final victory of this treasure game would be hers!
There was still more than twenty meters of distance between the humanoid smoke entity and Tang Li Xue, but he did not care and brandished his sword at Tang Li Xue!
BWOOOOSSHHH~!
Extremely sharp ck sword energy instantly shot out in a crescent shape!
Tang Li Xue hastily used her [Mother Earth''s Gift] to create a defensive stone wall, but it was easily cut in two by the ck sword energy!
The crescent-shaped ck sword energy was too fast, and it had already reached Tang Li Xue in an instant!
Tang Li Xue did not have any more time to dodge it, so she could only choose to activate herst life-saving trump card.
[Sun And Moon Protection] activated~! (Became invulnerable for 1.5 seconds.)
BBOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure sted away for more than a hundred meters and crashed into many human troops!
More than fifty human troops turned into meat patty because of the violent crash, and then they turned into a group of white light and disappeared.
Tang Li Xue coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood while slowly standing up again with a grim expression.
The previous [Sun And Moon Protection] might bepletely blocking the crescent-shaped ck sword energy, but thest crash onto the pce wall had injured her quite a bit.
"Damn it~! I knew it would not be that easy~!" Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
This five-meter humanoid entity created from the ck smoke was clearly even stronger than the previous human generals!
"I am the Human Race g Guardian. I would never allow the filthy beasts such as you all to pollute my glorious g~!" The five-meter ck smoke entity shouted to Tang Li Xue with an intimidating tone.
"Tsk~! Filthy beast this, filthy beast that... Your speech is so boring and annoying! I want to see what your expression will be like after I tear your glorious g with my ws!" Tang Li Xue replied with mocking words.
The surrounding human troops took this chance to thrust their spears at Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue used her [Mystic Whisper] on them instead.
"Take that g and bring it to me~!" Tang Li Xue''s [Mystic Whisper] prated deep into the consciousness of those human troops, and they started to execute her order without any hesitation.
Of course, she never thought that these cannon fodder troops could really take the Human Race g from that g Guardian, but Tang Li Xue could take this chance to think of a good n to grab the g.
Tang Li Xue thought the best option was for Little Loki to use its [Instant Teleportation] and secretly steal the Human Race g from the g Guardian.
But she immediately postponed that idea forter after she observed Little Loki''s situation.
Currently, Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones were busily fighting against two human generals at once.
It seemed that even the mint-colored fox had already been in by those two human generals.
So, it might be impossible for Little Loki to help her for now.
Tang Li Xue used [Talisman of Regeneration] on herself to quickly recover her wounds.
She also activated the buff talismans such as [Talisman of Giant Strength], [Talisman of Lightning Speed], and [Talisman of Iron Skin] on herself and Little Loki.
Surprisingly, those buff talismans failed to buff Little Loki.
Tang Li Xue also did not know the exact reason why they failed, but maybe the buff talismans would lose their effect on some powerful targets.
''Would these buff talismans no longer work on me after I evolved into [Rare] grade beast or beast lord level beast? Sigh, it seems I need to start to learn even more advanced buff talismans after this Foxes Hunting Festival is over.'' Tang Li Xue asked doubtfully in her mind.
Tang Li Xue shook her head to clear all of the distracting things from her mind and muttered with a solemn tone: "This is not the time for me to think about that~! I should just focus on picking away the damn g from that fierce big guy for now~!"
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue used her [Mystic Whisper] to control more than fifty human troops at once, but the g Guardian easily decimated all of them in a few rapid shes!
"Die, filthy beast~!" The g Guardian shouted in rage as he swung his sword and unleashed another crescent-shaped ck sword energy toward Tang Li Xue!
From her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue could sense how dangerous and powerful the g Guardian''s attack was.
It was impossible for her to block this attack with her current defense skills from [Mother Earth''s Gift] and [Energy Maniption], so she could only try to dodge it!
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step]~!
BWOOOOSSHHH~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue''s speed was already extremely fast with the passive effect of her [Super Speed] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], but the crescent-shaped ck sword energy was much faster than her!
Although Tang Li Xue sessfully avoided the crescent-shaped ck sword energy, but it still actually managed to slice the three tails behind her!
"GRRRAAAAGGH~! That damn bast*rd~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs to withstand the extreme pain of losing her three tails while cursing the g Guardian many times in her mind.
The mutted three tails were bleeding profusely, and it made Tang Li Xue pale and sluggish.
Unfortunately, her [Quick Restore] was still in the cooldown period, so she could not use it to restore her wounds and three tails for now.
Tang Li Xue was even more sure that this ck smoke monster was not something they could face alone in a one-on-one battle.
This g Guardian should be thest obstacle created to face the several invading generals and their troops.
But the script clearly went wrong here and now Tang Li Xue had to face this monstrous g guardian alone while being besieged by so many human troops and their human generals instead!
This was obviously the hell-level difficulty treasure game!
"No, I still have a chance..." Tang Li Xue muttered as she thought about her [Shadow sh].
She really regretted that she had used her [Shadow sh] carelessly to approach the g before. Because of that, she must wait for six more minutes right now before her [Shadow sh] finishes its cooldown.
''Six more minutes, huh... It should be no problem for me to stall for six more minutes~!'' Tang Li Xue thought resolutely.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The wall behind her suddenly copsed under the power of the g Guardian''s previous crescent-shaped ck sword energy!
However, it did not stop there... Even the surrounding buildings also started to crumble apart!
The crescent-shaped ck sword energy was so powerful and sharp that it actually cut everything in its path!
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Tang Li Xue suddenly thought that six minutes was actually too long. She might not even be able tost for three minutes under this g Guardian''s sword!
When she saw that the g Guardian raised his sword and nned to unleash another ck sword energy toward her, she hastily activated her [Mystic Whisper] and shouted: "All of you, surround that big guy~! Take his g and bring it to me~!"
This time, Tang Li Xue managed to control more than a hundred human troops at once and ordered them to besiege the g Guardian instead.
"You really like to cut everything with your sword, right?! Then I want to see how you cut all of your own people with your sword~!" Tang Li Xue said with a hint of ruthlessness in her soft tone.
Chapter 605 605: All According To Plan!
Chapter 605 Chapter 605: All ording To n!
The g Guardian did not really care about the mere lives of the cannon fodder human troops. He mowed a third of them down at once in one sh!
Tang Li Xue activated her [Mystic Whisper] for the third time and controlled another batch of one hundred human troops to take the g from the g Guardian.
Then she secretly hid behind them and activated her [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment]!
The g Guardian was still busily cutting down the iing human troops with his sword, and it only took him a few shes to ughter more than a hundred human troops.
Tang Li Xue took this opportunity to swiftly go around behind the g Guardian and patiently waited for a chance to secretly steal the Human Race g.
When the g Guardian raised his sword and swung it down forcefully at the attacking human troops, Tang Li Xue tensed her limbs as she thought: ''The chance is now~!''
Tang Li Xue used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], and her silver furry figure turned into a silver sh as she jumped onto the g Guardian''s back with lightning speed.
But the g Guardian suddenly sensed Tang Li Xue''s movement!
It was already toote to sh his sword at Tang Li Xue who was pouncing from behind him, so the g Guardian performed a swift back-roundhouse kick in reflex!
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] already sensed extremely lethal dangering from the g Guardian''s back-roundhouse kick!
It was clear that the [Ethereal Form]''s ability to pass through solid matter would not work against the g Guardian''s powerful kick since he had already imbued his kick with destructive Qi.
However, Tang Li Xue could not dodge it in mid-air since her [Wings of Freedom] was still on cooldown!
''No, I might not get another chance after this~! I must get the Race g right now~!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she gnashed her fangs resolutely.
Tang Li Xue moved her paw to p away the g Guardian''s back-roundhouse kick!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
However, that was clearly not strong enough, so she also activated her [Critical Strikers] without any hesitation!
[Final Strike]~!
The [Final Strike] strengthened the power and speed of Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Shattering Strike] in an instant!
BBAAAAAANNNNG~!
Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Shattering Strike] did not sh head-on against the g Guardian''s back-roundhouse kick, she cleverly applied the [Redirection Flow] technique to redirect the extremely powerful back-roundhouse kick to the other direction with her [Moon Shattering Strike]!
But Tang Li Xue''s body lost momentum in mid-air after that sh.
Tang Li Xue quickly created several footholds with her [Energy Maniption] and used them to jump around with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], creating several afterimages in the air!
"You are very strong but sorry, this is already over. It is my win." Tang Li Xue calmly muttered to the g Guardian as shended gracefully on his back.
"NO~! IT IS NOT OVER YET~!" The g Guardian shouted out loud in anger as he twisted his body around violently to shake off Tang Li Xue and swung both of his hands to his back.
Because he used both of his hands to protect the Human Race g on his back from Tang Li Xue, he ended up dropping the sword in his grasp instead.
"Tsk~! You are really persistent, aren''t you?! Just ept your lost~!" Tang Li Xue scolded in annoyance as she activated her [Mother Earth''s Gift].
[Mountain Pit]~!
The g Guardian''s five-meter sturdy body instantly sunk into the ground for four meters like in the swamp!
Tang Li Xue hastily condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs]!
ROOOOAAAAARRRR~!
A deep blue me dragon head roared out loud as it bit down one of the g Guardian''s arms while the [Sun Dragon ws] tried to pry open the g Guardian''s hands to take away the Human Race g from him!
"NO~! Begone~! Get away from me~!" The g Guardian howled in unbearable anger while using one of his hands to punch and destroy the [Sun Dragon ws].
PPUUUFFFF~!
"If you are so persistent like that, your neck and head will be wide open!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a cold tone as she used her [Moonlight sh] to cut the g Guardian''s throat deeply.
But the g Guardian was not an ordinary living being, so he was not feeling any pain or affected by Tang Li Xue''s fatal attack.
Tang Li Xue started to lose her patience and hastily used [Moonlight sh] repeatedly to cut off the g Guardian''s head!
The g Guardian gritted his teeth in rage, and he suddenly moved both of his hands swiftly to catch Tang Li Xue!
"Hahahaha~! I finally catch you~! Now, die~!" The g Guardian roared with a hoarse sound filled with killing intent.
The g Guardian mobilized his entire strength to squeeze Tang Li Xue in his grasp to death!
PUUUFFFF~!
But Tang Li Xue in the g Guardian''s grasp became a puddle of water all of a sudden!
That was actually only Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clone!
The real Tang Li Xue had already activated her [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment] and secretly jumped down from the g Guardian''s back half a second ago!
As for the Human Race g?
One of the human troops had actually managed to steal away that g from the g Guardian''s back just now!
"You would never think that the worthless cannon fodder human troop could steal that g from you, right?" Tang Li Xue said while sneering mockingly at the g Guardian.
"NO~! MY GLORIOUS FLAG~! THIS IS NOT OVER YET~! I AM NOT LOSING YET~!" The g Guardian roared in desperation while angrily punching and kicking the surrounding human troops to death.
"Oh,e on~! Don''t be a sore loser like that~!" Tang Li Xue spoke as she readily used her [Mystic Whisper] again.
"Throw that g away to your left as far as you can right now~!" Tang Li Xue ordered with her [Mystic Whisper].
Her words instantly prated right into the human troop''s mind, and he immediately did as Tang Li Xue told him to do.
PUUUFFF~!
Right after the human troop threw the g away with all of his strength, his body got squashed by the g Guardian''s punch to pieces, and he became a group of white light, then disappeared.
"RETURN MY GLORIOUS FLAG RIGHT NOW~!" The g Guardian shouted in panic as he hastily jumped to catch the g.
"Little Loki..." Tang Li Xue sent a message to Little Loki with her telepathy.
Meaaaoooww Myaw~! (Leave it to myaw~!)
Little Loki abandoned its fight against several human generals and instantly activated its [Instant Teleportation] without any hesitation!
Just when the g Guardian had almost seeded in reiming his g, Little Loki suddenly appeared right beside the thrown-off Human Race g!
Little Loki swiftly hugged the Human Race g with its tiny body before the g Guardian grabbed it with his hands!
Then Little Loki hastily activated its [Instant Teleportation] once again to teleport toward Tang Li Xue!
"Tsk~! Just as I expected. So, it still did not count as a victory even after Little Loki stole the g. It seems only if the fox general grabs the g will it count as a real victory." Tang Li Xue murmured her conclusion.
At first, Tang Li Xue had the intention to let Little Loki secretly steal the Human Race g while she was distracting the g Guardian''s attention.
However, she quickly abandoned that idea because the risk was too high since Little Loki would die for real without the life protection of the Foxes Hunting Festival badge.
"Oh well, let''s just forget it~! It does not matter anymore right now because..." Tang Li Xue continued to say when Little Loki appeared right in front of her.
"I had already won~!" Tang Li Xue smiled as she grabbed the Human Race g from Little Loki while putting Little Loki back into her system''s pet space.
The surrounding scene suddenly became blurry.
After Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes again, she had already been sent out from the treasure game space and returned to the treasure ind.
Tang Li Xue stared at the treasure box in front of her and sighed in relief after making sure that she had really won the treasure game.
Although everything seemed to be going ording to her n, but one tiniest mistake would lead to a fatal problem.
Something like the g Guardian could change his body form or size as he wishes, or momentarily disperse his body into ck smoke, or use some kind of technique to throw Tang Li Xue off his back...
Tang Li Xue had already thought of several backup ns for the worst case, but fortunately, they were not needed anymore.
Tang Li Xue reached out her paws to take the treasure box in front of her, but she suddenly realized something strange.
Even the treasure box in her grasp slipped down and fell to the ground when she stared dumbfoundedly at the sky.
The entire crimson skies above had actually filled with countless cracks as if they would be broken and shattered to pieces at any time!
"Holy damn... What the hell is happening~?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock and disbelief.
"Is the owner of the Crimson Skies Domain nning to do something again?" Tang Li Xue muttered while frowning deeply in worry.
But what made Tang Li Xue perplexed was that she could feel the mind control effect from the Crimson Skies Domain gradually getting weaker as time passed.
At this rate, it might only take less than ten minutes for the Crimson Skies Domain topletely lose its mind-control effect!
Chapter 606 606: Extreme Humiliation!
Chapter 606 Chapter 606: Extreme Humiliation!
Tang Li Xue did not really know or understand what had happened to the Crimson Skies Domain.
It was true that Tang Li Xue was very curious about it, but since it would only bring benefits to her, she would not bother to fuss over it.
"Uwehehehehe... So, from now on, my energy would no longer be drained rapidly by my bloodlines to resist the mind-control effect of this Crimson Skies Domain~!" Tang Li Xue giggled happily.
When Tang Li Xue recalled that the owner of this Crimson Skies Domain seemed to always target her for no reason, she instantly became displeased and scolded in delight: "Whatever happened to the owner of this Crimson Skies Domain, it should not be a good thing for it... Humph~! Serve your right~!"
Tang Li Xue took the treasure box with her paws and turned on her [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment], then she quickly got away from there as soon as possible before other foxes came here and tried to rob her treasure box.
She really did not have any idea that the broken Crimson Skies Domain actually had a lot to do with her.
.....
BOOOOOOOMMM~!
The red-haired sexy girl was thrown off for hundreds of meters and crashed heavily onto the cliff.
The entire cliff crumbled in an instant and buried the red-haired sexy girl under so many rubble.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
All the rubble shattered to dust under the red-haired sexy girl''s power pressure, and she slowly floated up while gnashing her teeth in hatred and anger.
The red-haired sexy girl might be uninjured even after she received such a sudden heavy blow, but it made her appearance look messy and dirty.
For someone who always considered her beauty and appearance to be number one like her, this was the greatest humiliation, even worse than just killing her in one blow!
"Meng Yue~! How dare you do this to me~?!" The red-haired sexy girl screamed maniacally.
The blue-haired little girl in a white dress slowly floated in front of the red-haired sexy girl.
"Dare? Of course, I dare~!" Meng Yue chuckled mischievously and flicked her slender finger at the red-haired sexy girl.
The red-haired sexy girl''s expression distorted in anger, but she still did not lose her cool head.
She waved her hand and created a crimson barrier to protect herself from Meng Yue''s attack.
BOOOOOOOMMM~!
Who knew that Meng Yue actually detonated the red-haired sexy girl''s surrounding air instead this time, so it waspletely unblockable!
The red-haired sexy girl was also an Apex Predator Level Fox from Qing Qiu Fox Tribe, so she was extremely powerful.
That kind of attack would not be able to injure the red-haired sexy girl, but Meng Yue''s objective was not to eliminate her from this Foxes Hunting Festival.
Meng Yue only nned to teach the red-haired sexy girl an unforgettable lesson in her Silver Sister''s ce by beating her up and humiliating her.
The red-haired sexy girl looked even more embarrassed than before with tattered clothes and shabby looks.
"Meng Yue~! Do you think I really dare not kill you?! Die, you wench~!" The red-haired sexy girl shouted in extreme fury and started to mobilize her mental power.
[Soul Crusher]~!
Different from the other foxes who relied on their vitality energy to wield their divine abilities, this red-haired sexy girl depended more on the terrifying mental power from her extremely high Spirit stat!
That was also the reason why the mind-control effect of her Crimson Skies Domain was so powerful, and the range was so vast.
For other creatures, the red-haired sexy girl''s divine abilities were undoubtedly extremely terrifying because it could ignore any kind of defense and directly destroy her opponent''s soul no matter how strong their physique was.
Yes, it was extremely dangerous to almost all living creatures with souls, except for Meng Yue...
Her divine abilities had the worstpatibility with Meng Yue since Meng Yue''s soul would be eternal as long as her Aurora Creation Domain was not destroyed.
"That''s it? All right, then it is my turn again~!" Meng Yue giggled mischievously as she raised her hands and suddenly created an enormous metal hammer out of nothing.
The red-haired sexy girl became dumbfounded in an instant.
"I want to see if your red shell is really as tough as it looks~!" Meng Yue said as she swung down the enormous metal hammer to the red-haired sexy girl.
BBOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The red-haired sexy girl wrapped in the transparent crimson barrier hammered heavily to the ground!
Crack~! Crack~! Crack~!
Countless thin cracks spread all over her transparent crimson barrier because of the extremely heavy collision!
The red-haired sexy girl''s eyes turnedpletely red in extreme rage, but she took a deep breath while trying her hardest to calm down her bursting emotion.
This was not the first time she had a fight with Meng Yue, and every time they fought she would always the one who lost.
Since she knew very well the oue of this fight, it would be the best choice to lower her head a bit for now so as not to get humiliated and hurt.
"Meng Yue, you calm down first! We can discuss it in peace. Why are you so angry with me?" The red-haired sexy girl tried to negotiate with Meng Yue.
Meng Yue''s expression did not change at all. She still smiled softly and replied: "Angry? Why should I be angry at you?"
"So, why are you attacking and beating me like this?!" The red-haired sexy girl put a wronged look and acted as if she waspletely innocent.
Meng Yue''s smile instantly became much colder as she ruthlessly raised the enormous metal hammer again while saying: "Because it feels good~! This is what I like about you~! Your hypocrisy has no bounds, so I will not have any guilty feelings by beating you up ~!"
"Wait a minute~! Is there some misunderstanding between us? I really do not understand what you mean..." The red-haired sexy girl still wanted to keep acting innocent.
But Meng Yue no longer has any intention to talk with her anymore since there were no truthful wordsing from her at all.
The red-haired sexy girl tried to avoid Meng Yue''s attack, but Meng Yue instantly froze the surrounding time around the red-haired sexy girl for half a second, making herpletely immobile.
BOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOMM~!
Even after the transparent crimson shield was shattered to pieces, Meng Yue kept pounding the red-haired sexy girl to the ground mercilessly!
Meng Yue had many more effective ways to kill and eliminate the red-haired sexy girl from this Foxes Hunting Festival, but doing so was a definitely bad idea.
The final result of this Foxes Hunting Festival was extremely important for the higher-ups from both the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe and Tu Shan Fox Tribe.
It might not have been a big problem if Meng Yue eliminated one or two Apex Predator Foxes from the Tu Shan Fox Tribe, but Meng Yue clearly could not eliminate another Apex Predator Fox from her own tribe just like that, especially before the second phase of the Foxes Hunting Festival began.
Actually, the red-haired sexy girl did not get injured that badly, but the extreme shame she felt was really unbearable.
The red-haired sexy girl knew she could not win against Meng Yue, so she decisively decided to run away instead.
[Thousands Mirror Images]~!
The red-haired sexy girl''s figure shattered like a mirror and split into countless identical clones in an instant, then all of them flew swiftly in different directions!
Meng Yueughed while saying in her immature voice: "So, you want to y hide and seek with me right now?! Then let''s y~! I really like ying hide and seek the most~!"
Meng Yue''s childish figure also instantly split into thousands of identical figures, and each of them swiftly chased after the red-haired sexy girl.
It was like thousands of Meng Yues were ying hide and seek with thousands of red-haired sexy girls!
Of course, this was only Meng Yue''s bad habit of ying around.
With her mind-reading ability, if Meng Yue really wanted to, she could easily find and catch the real red-haired sexy girl among these thousands of her clones.
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
All of Meng Yue''s clones shattered the red-haired sexy girl''s mirror images rapidly one by one in only a few seconds.
The red-haired sexy girl gnashed her teeth in resentment. She swore in her heart that she would definitely make Meng Yue pay a million times for this humiliation in the future.
BAAAANGG~!
Meng Yue kicked the red-haired sexy girl''s back from behind while murmuring happily: "I found you~! Now, the loser punishment time~!"
Meng Yue pped her hands and a gigantic crocodile suddenly jumped out from the underground!
The red-haired sexy girl did not have any time to react, and she got swallowed by the gigantic crocodile in an instant!
The red-haired sexy girl hastily used her ability to condense a sharp aura on her w and cut the gigantic crocodile''s abdomen.
When the red-haired sexy girl flew out from the gigantic crocodile''s stomach, she was already covered with disgusting saliva, blood, stomach acid, and feces of the gigantic crocodile.
It was extremely disgusting that even Meng Yue quickly teleported away to distance herself from the red-haired sexy girl.
The red-haired sexy girl bit her tongue and lips in unbearable rage and humiliation, then she shouted with a hoarse voice: "Meng Yue~! I really hate you~!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk~! Hehehe, this appearance really suits a hypocrite like you the best~!" Meng Yueughed at the red-haired sexy girl without any restraint.
Chapter 607 607: Maximum Limit!
Chapter 607 Chapter 607: Maximum Limit!
But looking at the current extremely disgusting appearance of the red-haired sexy girl, Ming Yue had lost her eagerness to beat up the red-haired sexy girl.
She did not even want to dirty any of her creations by letting them touch the current disgusting red-haired sexy girl.
"Anyway, you better never touch any of my friends again, otherwise I will make you even more regret it even more than now~!" Ming Yue warned the red-haired sexy girl with a stern tone, then she quickly got away from there.
The red-haired sexy girl stared at the leaving Ming Yue while gnashing her teeth in extreme rage and resentment.
"Someday, I will torture you a million times worse than this and kill everyst one of your friends right in front of your eyes!" The red-haired sexy girl said with a tone filled with malice.
After the red-haired sexy girl calmed down a little bit, she realized the unbearable stench around her body and almost threw up because of it.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue ran swiftly with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to look for a safe ce to rest.
She took a nce at the fading away Crimson Skies Domain and the color of the skies returned to the previous beautiful light blue color like her eyes.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief since the surrounding scene was also returning back to normal.
On her way, she passed many other foxes, but their eyes already turned back to usual without any eerie crimson glow, and all of them were no longer affected by the mind-controlling effect of Crimson Skies Domain.
After entering the dense forest area, Tang Li Xue jumped into the hole in the huge tree.
She turned off her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], then took out Little Loki from her system''s pet space.
"Nyaaaww~!" Little Loki growled angrily at Tang Li Xue, but it looked very cute instead.
Tang Li Xue giggled at Little Loki as she patted Little Loki''s tiny furry head gently with her paw and apologized casually: "All right, I am really sorry, okay~? I should have said something to you first before putting you into that space."
"Humph~!" Little Loki smugly turned away its head.
Tang Li Xue put the treasure box in front of Little Loki and opened it while saying in a pampering tone: "You should be still hungry, right? As my apology, I will give the precious resource in this treasure box to you."
Little Loki stared greedily at the fist-sized golden bean inside the treasure box. Even its saliva subconsciously dripped down from its mouth.
Tang Li Xue smiled gently at Little Loki''s reaction. She took out the fist-sized golden bean from inside the treasure box with her paws and shoved it at Little Loki''s mouth.
But surprisingly, Little Loki turned away its tiny furry head instead as if it did not care about the fist-sized golden bean at all.
"Why? Aren''t you still very hungry? Does it not suit your taste?" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki in confusion.
Little Loki nodded and pushed away the fist-sized golden bean back to Tang Li Xue.
''No, it should not be. From Little Loki''s previous reaction, it clearly really wants to eat this golden bean so badly.'' Tang Li Xue thought while staring suspiciously at Little Loki.
After pondering carefully it for a while, Tang Li Xue finally realized that Little Loki might really want to eat the golden bean so badly, but it resisted that urge and deliberately left the golden bean for her instead.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes sparkled in pleasantness and felt touched.
"Aw, Little Loki~! You are really such a nice and caring cub~! Who said that uhh... evil beast cub is treacherous and extremely wicked?! I will make sure to scold them in the future!" Tang Li Xue said as she hugged Little Loki lovingly.
Little Loki still acted like a tsundere and put on a displeased expression, but its heart actually felt quite happy and warm.
After Tang Li Xue released Little Loki from her embrace, she took the fist-sized golden bean and then...
[Moonlight sh]~!
CRACK~!
The fist-sized golden bean was split in two by the silver sh of light from Tang Li Xue''s w.
Tang Li Xue ate half of a fist-sized golden bean while giving the other half to Little Loki.
"To be fair, both of us will eat half." Tang Li Xue muttered to Little Loki.
Little Loki rolled its eyes andzily took the half of a fist-sized golden bean.
[Instant Teleportation]~!
Little Loki teleported right in front of Tang Li Xue''s face all of a sudden.
When Tang Li Xue wanted to dodge in reflex, Little Loki activated its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] and pushed the other half of a fist-sized golden bean into Tang Li Xue''s mouth.
*Ding!
[You had consumed Golden Emperor Bean.]
[Your Toughness stat increased by 1,500.]
[Your Agility, Toughness, and Spirit stats increased by 300.]
[You have awakened (Sharp Edge Power) divine ability!]
Tang Li Xue was assaulted by an unbearable head-splitting headache, but only for a few moments, and the pain immediately disappeared like an illusion.
Tang Li Xue wanted to scold Little Loki and ask it why it did that, but the next notification from her system made her more concerned about something else.
Strength: 4,000 ---> 4,300
Agility: 3,000 ---> 3,300
Toughness: 3,500 ---> 5,000
Spirit: 2,900 ---> 3,200
*Ding!
[Your Toughness stat has reached the maximum limit, and it can no longer be increased anymore. Please evolve to a higher-grade beast as soon as possible to increase the maximum limit of all stats.]
"Wha... What the hell does it mean? My Toughness stat had reached the limit? So, the current maximum limit of all my stats is 5,000? And... I need to evolve to a higher grade first before I can increase my stats again?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock and surprise.
*Ding!
[Exactly! Just like the host HP, all of the host''s stats also have the maximum limit, and they cannot be increased anymore unless the host evolves to a higher-grade beast.]
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper and asked again: "So, what if I still ate precious cultivation resources such as fruits or beans after all of my stats reached 5,000? Would they still be stuck at 5,000? Will the excessive stats be converted and stored as free stat points?"
[Nope, all of your stats will still be stuck at 5,000, and the excessive stats will not be converted to free stat points.]
"Damn, so all of those excessive stats would be wasted for nothing?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a displeased and frustrated tone.
[That is correct. All of them will be wasted for nothing.]
"System, that is too wasteful, right? Can you make an exception this time and convert those excessive stat points into anything useful? It can be anything such as free stat points, free skill points, or even Deity Coins, all of them are good!" Tang Li Xue tried to negotiate and beg her system.
[Do not worry, host. After taking everything into consideration, all of the excessive stats would automatically be converted into EXP to increase the host level, so the host can reach the maximum level quicker and evolve to the next grade faster.]
"Why the hell is it only EXP?! Can you convert them into something more precious?! you cheapskate system~!" Tang Li Xue cried in protest, but her System no longer responded to herint.
"Nyaa~!" Little Loki approached Tang Li Xue and licked her cheek tofort her.
It thought Tang Li Xue was angry at what it had done before.
Tang Li Xue smiled and patted Little Loki''s little furry head, thenforted it: "No, it is not your fault. Thank you very much, Little Loki~! You are really a cute and caring little one~!"
Now, Tang Li Xue was in dillema.
Should she keep consuming the precious treasures she got by herself, or should she just give all of them away to Little Loki, Yaya, or Phoenix of Pride?
But both her Agility and Spirit stats were still around 3,200 to 3,300, so they were still quite a distance away from 5,000.
While her Strength stat had already reached 4,300, so it might reach the maximum limit of 5,000 too after she consumed one more strength-rted precious resource.
By the way, the invulnerable effect of her [Sun And Moon Protection] has actually grown from 1.5 seconds to 2 seconds right now. It might be rted to her Toughness stat which had already increased a lot and reached 5,000.
Tang Li Xue sighed in frustration while muttering: "Uwaaaahhh, let''s forget it for now~! After fighting such long continuous battles, I am already very tired. Let''s go, Little Loki~! We can finally sleep tightly now without that annoying Crimson Skies Domain~!"
Tang Li Xue hugged Little Loki,y down, and closed her eyes to rest.
After a while, her breath became steady as she fell into deep sleep.
Normally, she would dig a deep underground tunnel first with her [Spider Scorpion Transformation] before she could sleep peacefully.
But this time, Tang Li Xue was too exhausted mentally after undergoing a fierce long war and an endless ughter in the previous treasure game.
She thought she could ept it easily by pretending to y in the RTS (Real Time Strategy) on her electronic tablet, but it was clearly not as easy as she thought it would be.
ughtering so many living humans and sacrificing so many of her fox subordinates clearly disturbed her mentality a lot.
Chapter 608 608: Lightning Clash!
Chapter 608 Chapter 608: Lightning sh!
Tang Li Xue slept very tightly for a few hours. Thankfully, no opponents wereing to ambush her at this time.
But even if that really happened, Tang Li Xue would probably still be fine since Little Loki would surely not let any opponent hurt her.
"Urrmmm~!" Tang Li Xue slowly woke up and whimperedfortably while gently patting Little Loki in her embrace.
She and Little Lokizily stretched their furry bodies while yawning widely.
"Good morning, Little Loki~! Errr... Well, it is actually not morning anymore..." Tang Li Xue greeted Little Loki.
Tang Li Xue summoned out her martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent], and urged it to use [Refining Spiritual Energy] to produce some mid-tier spirit stones.
The [Golden Winged Serpent] stared at Tang Li Xue with an expression filled with grievance.
It could only use its [Refining Spiritual Energy] to produce several mid-tier spirit stones once every few days, but Tang Li Xue urged it to produce several mid-tier spirit stones again after only one or two days passed.
"What are you waiting for~?! Do it quickly~! Can you see Little Loki is already very hungry right now~?! Do you want it to eat you in one bite instead~?!" Tang Li Xue threatened the [Golden Winged Serpent] with a yful tone while sneering mischievously.
Of course, she was just joking around. How could she really let Little Loki devour her own martial soul?!
"Nyaaaa~!" (Hurry up~!)
Little Loki cooperatively meowed to the [Golden Winged Serpent] to intimidate it.
The [Golden Winged Serpent] shuddered slightly and started to groan as if it was forcing something out of its body.
Even after the [Golden Winged Serpent] forcefully urged its [Refining Spiritual Energy], it could only barely produce four mid-tier spirit stones this time.
"Tsk~! Is that all?! Are you still hiding more of them?" Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in displeasure, and Little Loki red at the [Golden Winged Serpent] menacingly.
The [Golden Winged Serpent] could only shake its head fearfully since it could not produce more than that.
"Pfft, ahahaha~! We are just kidding~! Good job, big guy~! We do not have any ration to feed Little Loki here, so we can only count on your skill to produce it." Tang Li Xueughed while patting at the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s head and tried tofort it.
The [Golden Winged Serpent] rolled its huge eyes and entered back to Tang Li Xue''s Dantian to recuperate from its injuries again.
Tang Li Xue fed Little Loki with four mid-tier spirit stones while saying: "Just bear with these first. I will give the next precious treasure to youter, okay?"
"Nyaaoow~!" (Okaaayyy~!)
Little Loki ate all four mid-tier spirit stones in one gulp, then it jumped and sat on Tang Li Xue''s head.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] before she and Little Loki continued their journey.
After both of them turned invisible and undetectable, Tang Li Xue jumped down from the tree hole and used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to increase her traveling speed.
On her way, Tang Li Xue secretly opened her system''s status window and checked the new divine ability she obtained from eating the fist-sized golden bean yesterday.
[Sharp Edge Power]: Grant any target or object with the ''Sharp Edge'' buff. (The effect and power of this divine ability depend on the user''s Strength stat. It currently can only be given on one target or object.)
The description of this [Sharp Edge Power] was so simple, but Tang Li Xue still did not understand what was the effect of the ''Sharp Edge'' buff.
So, she decided to turn off her [Ethereal Form] and activated this [Sharp Edge Power] divine ability to try its effect.
[Sharp Edge Power]~!
The target was her own right w!
Tang Li Xue saw that her right w was wrapped in transparent golden light and thought in awe: ''Woah~! This looks really cool~! Even if it does not have any effect, I can still use this to show off! If I shout something like Tathagata Palm while using it, I am quite sure that I can even scare away some people!''
Then she tried to sh her right w wrapped in transparent golden light at the nearby huge boulder, but there was nothing happened to that boulder.
"Eh, what? Nothing happened at all?! Don''t tell me that this divine ability really does not have any effect other than to look cool?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in disappointment.
Little Loki rolled its eyes and jumped from Tang Li Xue''s head toward the huge boulder.
When Little Loki touched the huge boulder...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The huge boulder was actually cut into several pieces by Tang Li Xue previously!
The surface of that chopped boulder was as smooth as a mirror like it had been cut by something extremely sharp.
Tang Li Xue grasped in shock and disbelief as she stared at her own right w in amazement.
"So, this is the might of [Sharp Edge Power]~! Not bad~! No, it is actually extremely powerful~!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she created a white sword with her [Energy Maniption] and applied [Sharp Edge Power] to it.
Then she used the white sword to cut the chopped boulder.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had guessed, the white sword became extremely sharp, and it cut the chopped boulder so easily without any resistance at all like butter.
Tang Li Xue grinned happily as she spoke in an excited tone: "I get another powerful divine ability~!"
But she quickly calmed down her excited mood and thought: ''I obtained more and more powerful divine abilities. But just like Meng Yue had said, it is impossible to use all of them in battle. So, I need to find a way to integrate several of them into one.''
Right now, Tang Li Xue could only think of a crude way to integrate them such as [Sharp Edge Power] + [Energy Maniption] + [mes of Pride].
That was still barely eptable since Tang Li Xue nned to integrate more of her divine abilities into one such as her [Mirror of the Moon], [Mystic Whisper], and so on.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and turned invisible again.
She continued her travel toward the nearest pir of golden light with Little Loki.
However, she met with something unexpected on her way before she could reach the pir of golden light.
She saw the familiar three-colored lightning in the sky in front of her.
"All right... That route seems closed, so let''s head another way." Tang Li Xue murmured as she turned around without any hesitation.
Before she could go away further, she immediately saw another familiar streak of ck lightning shed against the three-colored lightning in the sky.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation and said: "Okay, forget it~! Let''s see what they are doing right now!"
Tang Li Xue actually did not want to have too muchmunication with the foxes from any faction of the Central Continent''s Fox Tribe until she really had decided on which faction of the Fox Tribe she would join in the future.
But it seems she really had no choice right now since the Silly Fox might be currently fighting against Lei Qian''er.
There was really no way the Silly Fox could win against Lei Qian''er, and he might be in danger right now, so Tang Li Xue must at least try to do something to help him out.
.....
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The ck lightning of Destruction shed again and again with the terrifying three-colored lightning!
Contrary to Tang Li Xue''s guess, Hei Yinghao could actually fight on equal ground against Lei Qian''er right now.
Of course, it was also because Lei Qian''er had not fighting seriously yet until now.
Lei Qian''er smiled at Hei Yinghao and said: "Hey, you are quite good as a male fox~! Much better than the most male foxes in the Tu Shan Fox Tribe. Do you want to join my Tu Shan Fox Tribe? I can give you a rmendation, so you can join my Tu Shan Fox Tribe without any troublesome requirements."
The ratio of male foxes and female foxes in the entire Fox n was 1:10, so the genius male foxes were actually much rarer than the genius female foxes.
"Humph~! Stop thinking about me, woman! I already have someone in my heart, and she is countless times better than you!" Hei Yinghao snorted in disdain and replied with a cold tone.
Lei Qian''er did not feel offended at all, and she smiled even more happily.
"Oh, someone countless times better than me?! Then that is even better~! You can also bring her to join my Tu Shan Fox Tribe~! I will give the two of you my rmendations to join the Tu Shan Fox Tribe. How about it?" Lei Qian''er dly persuaded Hei Yinghao again.
If Tang Li Xue was here right now, she might really think that Lei Qian''er was a salesgirl of Tu Shan Fox Tribe.
Hei Yinghao''s mouth twitched violently when he heard Lei Qian''er''s words.
"I refuse~!" Hei Yinghao angrily shouted as he unleashed even more powerful ck lightning of Destruction toward Lei Qian''er.
Lei Qian''er sighed in disappointment when she heard Hei Yinghao''s reply.
BBOOOOOOOMM~!
Lei Qian''er shot a three-colored spear condensed from her lightning to break Hei Yinghao''s ck lightning of Destruction.
[Blood Burst] plus [Blood Ignition] - Quadruple Amplification~!
Hei Yinghao triggered his two divine abilities at once to increase his strength by several folds in an instant!
Her ck figure shed swiftly and disappeared from Lei Qian''er''s vision all of a sudden!
Before Lei Qian''er could react, Hei Yinghao already appeared right in front of her while condensing a dark sword from his ck lightning of Destruction to attack her!
Chapter 609 609: Lei Qian’er’s Offer!
Chapter 609 Chapter 609: Lei Qian''er''s Offer!
When Hei Yinghao''s dark sword condensed from his ck lightning of Destruction almost stabbed Lei Qian''er, Lei Qian''er''s body suddenly transformed into a streak of three-colored lightning.
"You will not get away!" Hei Yinghao shouted as he increased the power of his divine ability even further.
[Blood Ignition] - Eight Times Amplification~!
After shing to fifty meters away, Lei Qian''er reverted back to her human form, but Hei Yinghao already chased after her and controlled the dark sword to attack her again!
This time, Lei Qian''er did not avoid Hei Yinghao''s attack anymore.
She also condensed a spear from her three-colored lightning andunched it toward Hei Yinghao!
BOOOOOOMMM~!
Hei Yinghao''s dark sword and Lei Qian''er''s three-colored spear shed head-on violently!
Both dark sword and three-colored spear shattered and exploded into ck lightning of Destruction and three-colored divine lightning!
The terrific shockwave of their sh was rolling around violently, pushing both Hei Yinghao and Lei Qian''er away!
Even though Lei Qian''er had not fought Hei Yinghao seriously yet, but it could not be denied that Hei Yinghao had also grown so much stronger than before.
After receiving hell-level training from Instructor Mei Lan and consuming several precious treasures from winning the treasure games in this Foxes Hunting Festival, Hei Yinghao had already reached the predator-level foxes.
Lei Qian''er smiled while looking curiously at Hei Yinghao and asked: "Is that all? Do you still have something even more powerful than that?"
Hei Yinghao arrogantly replied: "Humph~! Of course, I have more! But I do not want to use them to bully a little girl like you!"
Hei Yinghao was not a fool, and his hunch could clearly feel that Lei Qian''er had not even used half of her strength until now from her yful manner.
But as a man, how could Hei Yinghao admit that he was weaker than a little girl like Lei Qian''er without fighting with all of his strength?!
"Really? Then you do not need to worry about..." Lei Qian''er suddenly halted her words when her three-colored Lightning of Wrath informed her that an acquaintance hade closer to them.
"Someone with Earthly Desire Spirit? Don''t tell me it is Sister Xue?!" Lei Qian''er muttered while her transparent purple eyes were shining with excitement.
Hei Yinghao did not care about what Lei Qian''er was murmuring about, but when he saw that Lei Qian''er was currently absentminded, he immediately decided tounch another attack on Lei Qian''er!
''A chance~!'' Hei Yinghao thought as he forcefully increased the buff of his divine ability even more!
[Blood Ignition] - Twelve Times Amplification~!
Hei Yinghao''s green eyes turned ck when he was wielding his ck lightning of Destruction, but after he pushed his [Blood Ignition] to twelve times amplification, his ck eyes turned crimson like blood.
SWOOOOSSSH~!
Hei Yinghao''s ck furry figure shed and appeared instantly right in front of Lei Qian''er!
[Destruction Force] plus [Lightning of Destruction]~!
Bybining two divine abilities into one, Hei Yinghao''s ck lightning of destruction had be several times more lethal than before!
Even Lei Qian''er felt threatened by the terrifying power emitted by Hei Yinghao''s ck furry body!
Lei Qian''er decided to get a bit more serious to test Hei Yinghao''s true power.
"Come out~! Lightning of Wrath~!" Lei Qian''er murmured in a casual tone.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Three-colored lightning Kirin jumped out from Lei Qian''er''s body and collided violently against Hei Yinghao''s ck lightning of destruction!
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Both three-colored lightning and ck lightning of destruction exploded violently!
As the two different types of lightning dispersed around because of the violent explosion, countless deep cracks spread on the ground below and the surrounding cliff.
Then they flew into countless rubble and shattered into dust under the power of two different types of extremely destructive lightning!
Both Hei Yinghao and Lei Qian''er were thrown off more than a hundred meters away.
But Lei Qian''er waspletely untouched because her three-colored lightning of Wrath was protecting her from all harm.
Meanwhile, Hei Yinghao was injured very badly and spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood of his mouth.
Lei Qian''er eximed in surprise: "Wow, you are stronger than I expected~!"
However, Lei Qian''er sensed something was not right, and she immediately urged her three-colored lightning Kirin to form a lightning barrier around her!
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Suddenly, an enormous pir of destructive ck lightning struck down from the sky!
Even Lei Qian''er''s three-colored lightning barrier could notpletely block it and shattered apart!
Just when the rest of the destructive ck lightning almost hit Lei Qian''er, the three-colored Kirin of Wrath instantly appeared to block it for Lei Qian''er!
So, both Lei Qian''er and the three-colored Kirin of Wrath were stillpletely unharmed after receiving the enormous destructive ck lightning attack.
The heavily injured Hei Yinghao slowly faded away from Lei Qian''er''s vision.
Yes, the heavily injured Hei Yinghao was actually only a false image made by Hei Yinghao''s new divine ability!
"Tsk~! Even that move failed to take you down, huh?!" Hei Yinghao clicked his tongue as he suddenly appeared behind Lei Qian''er.
Although the real Hei Yinghao was uninjured, but his breath was hurried.
He clearly almostpletely exhausted his entire stamina and energy by using so many of his divine abilities at once.
"No, you are the one who surprised me the most~! Your strength has exceeded my expectations. You are actually much stronger than I have ever thought!" Lei Qian''er generously praised Hei Yinghao with a tone filled with awe.
Hei Yinghao gnashed his teeth in frustration and unwillingness.
Even after he fought with all of his strength, he still failed to force Lei Qian''er to fight seriously against him.
Right at this moment, an uninvited guest suddenly came here and shouted out loud: "STOP IT~!"
Both Lei Qian''er and Hei Yinghao turned their head around to look at the source of that voice and found out that it was actually an extremely familiar acquaintance of theirs.
Lei Qian''er: "Sister Xue~!"
Hei Yinghao: "Little Xue~!"
Then both Lei Qian''er and Hei Yinghao stared at each other strangely, then asked at the same time: "You are Sister Xue (Little Xue)''s friend~?!"
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw that the two of them were stillpletely uninjured.
Before she arrived here, Tang Li Xue had already put Little Loki into her system''s pet space first since she did not want Little Loki to meet any foxes from the Central Continent yet.
Lei Qian''er and Hei Yinghaonded on the ground and ran toward Tang Li Xue.
Lei Qian''er happily hugged Tang Li Xue and kissed her while caressing her smooth and soft shiny silver fur.
After Lei Qian''er released Tang Li Xue from her embrace, Hei Yinghao also came closer and wanted to hug Tang Li Xue too, but Tang Li Xue kicked him away with her hind leg.
Hei Yinghao silently stared at Tang Li Xue with a wronged look.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and ignored Hei Yinghao, then talked to Lei Qian''er with a pleading tone: "I am really sorry for disturbing you, Sister Lei, but this silly guy is one of my close friends. so, can you please let him off for my sake?"
Hei Yinghao immediately straightened his back and interrupted by saying: "Why are you asking her to let me off?! It should be me who let her off, okay?!"
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched as she really wanted to p the head of this Silly Fox so badly.
''Asking you to let off an Apex Predator fox who ranked 2nd in the previous Foxes Hunting Festival?! Are you serious?! No, you must be drunk~!'' Tang Li Xue silently scolded Silly Fox in her heart.
Lei Qian''er chuckled when she heard Tang Li Xue''s words and replied: "Hahaha~! I see, so he is your close friend. No, he has not offended me at all."
"On the contrary, I felt he was very interesting. I was quite curious about him before, so I decided to test his strength. I am really sorry if I offended your friend." Lei Qian''er kindly apologized instead.
"Oh, I get it. It is all right, Sister Lei. If you really like it and have not had enough, you can beat him up several more times to your heart''s content." Tang Li Xue generously said to Lei Qian''er.
Silly Fox: "....."
"Really? Can I really do it a few more times?" Lei Qian''er asked while her transparent purple eyes shone in excitement.
Hei Yinghao''s expression turned cold as she stared menacingly at Lei Qian''er and said: "Don''t push your luck, woman!"
Then he stared at Tang Li Xue with teary eyes as if saying: ''Little Xue, how could you have a heart to sell me to this woman like that?!''
Lei Qian''er giggled when she saw how fast Hei Yinghao changed his attitude and expression every time hemunicated with her and Tang Li Xue.
Lei Qian''er stared even more curiously at Hei Yinghao, then she offered to him and Tang Li Xue again: "You are very interesting. Are you sure you do not want to ept my rmendation and join the Tu Shan Fox Tribe? Sister Xue, you can also join my Tu Shan Fox Tribe. With my rmendation, you can instantly join without any requirement."
Tang Li Xue was caught off guard by Lei Qian''er''s offer and became dumbfounded for a few moments.
Tang Li Xue pretended to ponder it for a while, then she shook her head and refused: "I am sorry, Sister Lei. I have not decided which faction to join yet. This is still my first Foxes Hunting Festival, so that matter seems to be too far for me. Please give me some time to think about it. Maybe I will give you the answer at the next Foxes Hunting Festival."
Chapter 610 610: Untapped Potential!
Chapter 610 Chapter 610: Untapped Potential!
Tang Li Xie was actually still uncertain about which fox tribe faction she would join.
Both Qing Qiu Fox Tribe and Tu Shan Fox Tribe has their own advantage and disadvantage.
If she revealed her awakened [Regalia of Eclipse], Tang Li Xue could get so much better treatment and an enormous amount of resources if she joined the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe.
She might even be instantly promoted to be a princess in the pure-blooded Royal Fox Family, reaching the sky in one step without any need to do anything at all!
She could even feed Yaya, Phoenix of Pride, and Little Loki with precious resources as much as they liked every day. The four of them could get stronger extremely fast like riding on a rocket.
Just imagining it was already enough for Tang Li Xue to drool.
Unfortunately, there was nothing really free in this world... or to be exact in any world!
If she received all of that treatment from the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe, then all of her rights and freedom wouldpletely belong to the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe!
The restriction was too great for Tang Li Xue''s preference since it meant Qing Qiu Fox Tribe could instruct her to do almost everything and she would not have any right to refuse at all.
How she should act in front of others, her manner, her future marriage partner, her interpersonal rtionship, and so on... Everything would be decided by the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe''s higher-ups.
Well, the situation might not be as bad as she thought since she has a quite close rtionship with Heaven''s Favored Child of the Fox Tribe, Meng Yue.
But Meng Yue herself was the biggest threat to Tang Li Xue which made Tang Li Xue even more indecisive to join the Qing Qiu Fox Tribe!
Meng Yue''s mind-reading divine ability was a true nightmare for someone like Tang Li Xue!
After all, Tang Li Xue had too many important secrets that no one should know, and it was impossible for her to never think about any of them anymore unless she erased thempletely from her mind.
If she hung out with Meng Yue too often, sooner orter her secret would definitely be spilled and known to Meng Yue!
Tang Li Xue really did not want that to happen!
Meanwhile, the Tu Shan Fox Tribe''s policy applied the principle of equal starting chance, so it was mostly identical to the mission hall in the Myriad Foxes Academy.
Bypleting any mission, any foxes could get contribution points, and they could use their contribution points to buy resources for themselves.
Afterpleting more missions to a certain number, their status would be promoted higher too.
All of Tang Li Xue''s teachers and friends such as Instructor Mei Lan, Silly Fox, Bingbing, Teacher Li Wei, and so on would definitely join the Tu Shan Fox Tribe sooner orter in the future.
Tang Li Xue actually really wanted to join the Tu Shan Fox Tribe with all of her friends and teachers, so she would not feel lonely.
But then again, this Tu Shan Fox Tribe''s path was too slow for Tang Li Xue''s liking!
How many missions do you think she couldplete in one month? Maybe two or three missions?
With the contribution points reward frompleting those missions, could she feed herself including her three gluttonous pets until they were full every day?!
No way, right~?! That waspletely impossible!
Of course, she could also get some more contribution points by relying on selling her talismans like now.
But the consumption of her and her three gluttonous pets will definitely increase more and more in the future. Tang Li Xue really doubted that selling talismans would be enough to feed them allter.
Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation and thought in frustration: ''Sigh... So, this is the sorrow and hardship of the single mother to raise her three children...''
This might be truly the most difficult choice Tang Li Xue had ever faced in her two lives until now.
"Hey~! What are you thinking about? Your face does not look good right now. Do you feel unwell?" Lei Qian''er shouted and asked with a worried expression while patting Tang Li Xue''s furry head gently to wake her up from her daze.
Hei Yinghao''s worried expression was even more exaggerated than Lei Qian''er''s as he hastily dashed away to the nearest river and brought back some water using leaves along with a few ordinary fruits.
"Little Xue, drink some water and eat something first." Hei Yinghao said with a tone filled with worry while feeding the water and fruits to Tang Li Xue.
"No, I am all right. I just remembered something unpleasant just now." Tang Li Xue refused and casually made a random excuse.
"Ah, that''s right~! Where is Meng Yue''s vassal mark on you? How did it get lost?" Lei Qian''er eximed in surprise and asked Tang Li Xue curiously.
"Oh, that is... Ahahaha~! I transferred it to someone else, so she would be freed from the mind control effect of the previous Crimson Skies Domain." Tang Li Xue exined vaguely.
"Trans... What~?! Transferred to someone else?! Really? I mean how did you do that?" Lei Qian''er felt even more confused.
"Yes, I transferred it away to my acquaintance. Is there something strange about it?" Tang Li Xue asked back.
Lei Qian''er dropped her jaw cutely in surprise while thinking in astonishment: ''Transferred it? How could it be? Do you think the vassal mark from Meng Yue is a Chinese cabbage that you can give to anyone else that easily?!''
There was no need to doubt how powerful Meng Yue was, so the vassal mark from her was definitely not that simple either!
Even Lei Qian''er herself might not be able to transfer or destroy Meng Yue''s vassal mark that easily if she really nned to do it!
From Lei Qian''er''s dumbfounded reaction, Tang Li Xue realized that her [Energy Maniption] might be more powerful than she had ever expected.
No, perhaps all of the divine abilities she got from her evolutions such as [Mirror of the Moon] and [Twin Moons] were actually also far from being as simple as she thought, since the three of them were Unique-Tier Divine Abilities.
She clearly could not wield any of them to their fullest potential yet!
After she went back from this Foxes Hunting Festival, Tang Li Xue decided to try to re-evaluate and re-train all of them again to find their untapped potentialter.
Since Tang Li Xue also did not really understand what had happened before, she could only exin it vaguely to Lei Qian''er.
The result was that both Tang Li Xue and Lei Qian''er became even more confused, so they decided to stop discussing it.
After talking with Lei Qian''er about many other topics for some time until dawn, Tang Li Xue bid farewell to Lei Qian''er since she wanted to participate in another treasure game before nighttime.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue obtained many important information from her discussion with Lei Qian''er.
About the fiercepetition between the Tu Shan Fox Tribe and Qing Qiu Fox Tribe, the Tu Shan Fox Tribe''s path to honing their divine abilities, and so on... But the most important thing among them was actually the method to develop her Earthly Desire Spirit, the me of Pride!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down herself while muttering: "Sigh... There are really too many things for me to do~! I can only do it step by step from now on..."
After traveling tens of miles away toward the nearest pir of golden light, Tang Li Xue turned around and stared at the stalker behind her fiercely, then asked: "By the way, why are you keep following me?"
Hei Yinghao replied innocently with a firm tone: "Because I want to always be with you, Little Xue~! We will never be apart again ~!"
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and asked again: "I want to participate in another treasure game. Are you sure you want to follow me and participate in the same treasure game? It means we willpete with each other to win that treasure game!"
"Of course, I am sure~! You do not need to worry, Little Xue~! I will surely try my hardest to win every treasure game and give all of the prizes to you~!" Hei Yinghao replied in a tone filled with confidence.
BAAAAAANNG~!
Tang Li Xue felt so touched and immediately awarded Hei Yinghao with a kick with her hind legs while shouting in an angry manner: "Go away~! I can win the treasure game and obtain the prize by myself~!"
After making sure that Lei Qian''er was already gone, Tang Li Xue took out Little Loki from her system''s pet space again.
"Nyaaaaww~!" (I am hungry~!)
Tang Li Xue patted at Little Loki''s tiny furry head andforted it: "Be patient, little guy~! I will feed you after we win the next treasure game, okay?"
Little Loki closed its eyes and cutely purredfortably from Tang Li Xue''s gentle caress while Silly Fox red at Little Loki with a pair of eyes filled with envy and jealousy.
Little Loki stared back at Hei Yinghao and sneered disdainfully.
Hei Yinghao blushed as he approached Tang Li Xue and muttered with a shy tone: "Little Xue, I also want..."
Tang Li Xue did not bother Hei Yinghao and immediately grabbed Little Loki, then activated her [Shadow sh] to teleport away from there.
She knew that Hei Yinghao would definitely want to follow her and help her win the next treasure game, but she did not want Hei Yinghao to waste his precious time only to be her helper.
She would rather separate from Hei Yinghao, so each of them could win their own treasure game.
Chapter 611 611: The Seventh Treasure Game!
Chapter 611 Chapter 611: The Seventh Treasure Game!
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], while Little Loki who sat on Tang Li Xue''s head also used its stealth skill to turn invisible.
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and rushed to the nearest pir of golden light with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
Viewing the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers under the sunset made Tang Li Xue''s mood be more peaceful and cheerful.
After all, she had already been haunted by the Crimson Skies Domain for several days, and it pushed her mind to the brink of exhaustion every time.
On her way, Tang Li Xue saw several other foxes, and after making sure that their eyes were normal without any sign of eerie crimson light, Tang Li Xue became even more at ease.
''Something bad might happen to the owner of the Crimson Skies Domain right now so it was forced to abort its mind-controlling domain. But this is clearly a good thing for me. It would be even better if the Crimson Skies Domain never appeared again.'' Tang Li Xue silently concluded in her heart.
She also noticed that more than three-fourths of foxes might have already been eliminated right now since the number seemed to be much lesserpared to before.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue and Little Loki to reach the pir of golden light in the foggy marsh area.
Tang Li Xue suddenly halted her step as she stared suspiciously at the foggy marsh area, and she instantly raised her vignce to the maximum.
ording to her previous experience, some predator-level foxes might have already waited for the other foxes to approach the pir of golden light, and they wouldunch a sudden fatal attack before the other foxes could enter the pir of golden light.
Tang Li Xueforted Little Loki for a few moments before she put it into her system''s pet space first, then she slowly entered the water in the marsh and swam toward the pir of golden light.
Even though she was still in the [Ethereal Form], but the water formed ripples when she swam.
Tang Li Xue could actually use her [Wings of Freedom] to fly directly to the pir of golden light, but she did not want to use it yet since [Wings of Freedom] has a one-hour cooldown, and she might need itter in the treasure game.
Just when Tang Li Xue was only a few hundred meters away from the pir of golden light...
BOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The calm marsh suddenly spun and formed a violent swirl that sucked Tang Li Xue into it!
"Damn it~! I knew this would happen~!" Tang Li Xue muttered while gnashing her fangs in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue hastily jumped out from the water and used her [Energy Maniption] to create a few footholds in mid-air.
Tang Li Xue swiftly jumped from one foothold to another with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step]!
However, the hiding predator-level fox already acted faster, and it immediately created a water curtain to imprison Tang Li Xue, so she could not reach the pir of golden light!
"Just using mere water to imprison me? Are you looking down on me that much?!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she activated her newly awakened divine ability, [Sharp Edge Power], and imbued it on her right w.
Tang Li Xue''s right w was instantly wrapped in the transparent golden light!
[Moonlight sh]~!
Tang Li Xue waved her right w several times rapidly. Her right w movement was too fast as if it suddenly vanished!
The water curtain in front of her was cut into pieces like a shattering mirror, and Tang Li Xue used this chance to jump into the pir of golden light.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to beat up the sneaky predator-level fox who attacked her just now, but after pondering it carefully for a while, she decided not to waste her precious time on it since she could feel that the second phase of the Foxes Hunting Festival would start soon.
After the Foxes Hunting Festival entered the second phase, she might not be able to participate and win the treasure game as easily as now, so she must take the current chance to win as many treasure games as she can.
.....
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes again, she was already inside a dpidated hut.
Tang Li Xue looked around and failed to find another fox other than her in this dpidated hut.
Tang Li Xue did not think much about it. She waved her paw and released Little Loki again from her system''s pet space.
"Meeooww~!" Little Loki meowed to express its displeasure.
Tang Li Xue chuckled when she saw how cute her Little Loki was and patted its tiny furry head tofort it.
While ying around with Little Loki, Tang Li Xue nced at the timer on the wooden door of the dpidated hut.
[1056]...
[1055]...
[1054]...
"Around 18 minutes, huh... It seems I do not need to wait for long this time." Tang Li Xue murmured with azy tone.
Unfortunately, there was no tree bark here, or she could have made some more talismans before the treasure game started.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue hadpletely forgotten about making more talismans before since she was too busy thinking about her stats maximum limit, her newly awakened divine ability, the disappearing Crimson Skies Domain, and so on.
Moreover, she had also met with Lei Qian''er and Silly Fox on her way after that.
Tang Li Xue sighed in regret andined: "I really should stock up more talismanster."
Although Tang Li Xue said so, she had actually already stocked up on more talismans before, but many of them were usually identally destroyed in the fierce battle.
It could not be helped since the talismans made from tree bark were fragile and easy to break, unlike paper talismans which could easily be folded and stored.
It did not take long for the waiting time to reach zero, and the wooden door of the dpidated hut suddenly opened.
As the countdown timer reached zero, it changed into a string of words about the rules of the current treasure game as usual.
[Our Fox Race is known as the most beautiful beast race. So, the Human Race usually kidnaps our Fox Race and forces many of us to be their pets, or they even sell us as raremodities.]
[Your task this time is to set free all the foxes from the hands of those humans.]
[There are ten kidnapped foxes in total. The participant who sets free the most kidnapped foxes from those humans will win this treasure game.]
[The Human Race is very cunning and treacherous. Never believe in them or your demise will definitelye sooner than you ever expect. Good luck, fox cubs~!]
Tang Li Xue frowned a bit and muttered softly: "This is... a rescue-type treasure game? It looks a bit troublesome..."
"Let''s go, Little Loki~! Let''s see the situation first~!" Tang Li Xue said to Little Loki while activating her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment].
Little Loki jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s head and also turned itself invisible with its skill.
As she stepped out from the dpidated hut, Tang Li Xue also realized that the theme of the treasure games had already shifted from thepetition between the Fox Race to the mission-type against the Human Race.
Just like the previous interracial war and this rescue mission, all of them focused on dealing with the Human Race.
Tang Li Xue felt it found it extremely strange since their current strongest opponent should be the Undead Race, but why was their Fox Race, or rather maybe all Beast Race still focused on fighting against the Human Race?
"Maybe I should ask Instructor Lan about itter to clear my confusion." Tang Li Xue murmured as she dashed with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
There was a dense forest outside the dpidated hut.
The skies had already turned dark. Only the light of countless stars and the dim light of the moon that was illuminating the entire forest.
Many huge trees and dense bushes covered Tang Li Xue''s vision, making it hard for her to determine how vast this forest was.
Just when Tang Li Xue almost got lost in this dense forest, Little Loki suddenly tapped at Tang Li Xue''s head and pointed in a certain direction.
"Meow Meeew~!" (Head over there~!)
"That direction? So amazing, Little Loki~!? So, you can sense those kidnapped foxes~!" Tang Li Xue delightedly praised Little Loki.
"Nya Nyaaan Meow~!" (No, I just smell something delicious from there.)
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched when she heard Little Loki''s answer.
"So, you determine the direction like that? Are you sure we can find something there?" Tang Li Xue said in a doubtful tone.
Little Loki shrugged its shoulder and sent its thought to Tang Li Xue: ''It is not like we have any other choice since we do not even know how to get out of this forest.''
"Sigh... Yes, you are right. it seems we really have no other choice." Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation and headed toward the direction where Little Loki pointing at.
After running for more than half an hour, Tang Li Xue and Little Loki had actually reached a tall cliff.
From the tall cliff, both of them saw a huge city filled with humans only a few dozen miles away from their current location.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched again when she saw a huge city andined: "Damn, I know this treasure game would not be that easy to win!"
Chapter 612 612: City Gate Inspection!
Chapter 612 Chapter 612: City Gate Inspection!
Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation as she activated her [Transfiguration] divine ability and changed into her extremely charming human form.
Tang Li Xue also used her [Energy Maniption] to create a set of in white dress to cover her slender ravishing naked body.
But she still felt it was far from enough since she needed to cover her pair of fox ears on the top of her head and her silver furry tails behind her.
Moreover, she was also still too eye-catching with her silky smooth silver long hair and captivating beautiful face.
So, she created a long white cloak with a hood to cover her silky smooth silver long hair, silver fox ears, and furry tails, while using a white veil to cover her mesmerizing face.
While the invisible Little Loki hid under Tang Li Xue''s hood, so no one could notice it even more.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to stealthy sneak into the huge human city with her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], but after pondering it carefully for a while, she finally decided to enter tantly from the front gate instead.
The reason was that she did not know anything about the human city yet, so even if she entered the human city sneakily, she would only be like a headless chicken.
Since she would certainly need to look around for a lot of information inside that human city in order to obtain some clues about the kidnapped foxes, she would certainly need a legal identity.
Of course, the fastest way to obtain a legal identity was from the front gatekeeper.
Tang Li Xue agilely jumped down from the tall cliff while using her [Energy Maniption] to create several footholds, so she could climb down from the cliff very easily like descending the stairs.
Tang Li Xue mingled with the other humans who were currently lined up in front of the city''s gate.
Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in displeasure when she saw such a long line of people.
It might take her more than a day if she patiently waited for her turn. At that time, those kidnapped foxes might have already been sold to somewhere else.
After observing her surroundings for a few moments, Tang Li Xue concluded that most of these people were merchants and hunters, but around 30% of them were immortal cultivators.
Most of the cultivators were at the Acupuncture Opening Stage, but some of the cultivators had reached the Core Formation Stage.
Since there were already Core Formation Stage cultivators right in front of the city''s gate, Tang Li Xue was quite sure that there might even be Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators guarding inside the city!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm her chaotic mood as she thought: ''As I thought, this treasure game is really not simple. If I sneaked into the city and took away those kidnapped foxes using force, I might have already turned into a fox barbeque by now.''
Then Tang Li Xue continued to think deeply: ''The city wall is around fifteen meters tall, and many Spirit Cannons are installed on top of it. There are also strange inscriptions carved on the city wall. With those strange inscriptions, I bet I cannot even use my [Ethereal Form] to pass through it as easily as usual.''
This human city''s defense was the tightest Tang Li Xue had ever seen until now.
After looking around until Tang Li Xue was satisfied, she decided to walk toward the merchant carriage that almost reached the city gate and entered the carriage confidently.
"Hey, what are you..." The rich male merchant inside the carriage shouted in anger, but before he could finish his words.
Tang Li Xue took off her veil revealing her captivating beautiful face to the rich male merchant.
The rich male merchant was instantly stunned silly for a dozen seconds when he saw Tang Li Xue''s extremely charming face.
Tang Li Xue held her urge to punch the drooling rich male merchant and showed her signature charming but seductive smile making the rich male merchant even crazier about her.
"Young master, may I join your escort and enter the city with you? This is my first timeing to this city, so I am really unfamiliar with the procedures. I am worried that I..." Tang Li Xue put on a shy expression and said with a reluctant tone.
The rich male merchant hurriedly nodded his head in delight and replied without any hesitation: "No problem~! Of course, you can~! It is my honor to help such a great beauty like Miss~!"
When the rich male merchant tried to strike conversation with Tang Li Xue, the rich merchant''s carriage finally reached the city''s gate, and the gate guards at the city gate began to check the carriage.
"All of you, get off from the carriage first~! We will inspect your carriage and luggage~!" The gate guards shouted out loud while knocking on the carriage several times.
The driver, the rich merchant, and Tang Li Xue got out of the carriage, then the gate guards started to check inside their carriage and luggage.
Before that Tang Li Xue covered her captivating face with a veil again, so she would not attract the unwanted attention of those gate guards.
"Take out your identity document, we will check it now." One of the gate guards told them.
The driver, the escort guards, and the rich merchant obediently took out their identity documents, but Tang Li Xue did not have it.
One of the gate guards frowned and asked Tang Li Xue suspiciously: "Where is your identity document?! Take it out right now!"
The rich merchant immediately helped Tang Li Xue and said to the gate guards with a fawning smile on his face: "Mr. gatekeeper, she is my wife, and this is the first time shee with me to this city. Can you be more lenient to her please?"
The rich merchant secretly handed a few mid-tier spirit stones to the gate guard.
The gate guard hesitated for a while and replied: "I apologize, but this time, I cannot let her pass. The city has entered third-level alert, and the city lord has already given us direct orders that everyone who entered the city needs to be checked carefully."
"Ah? Third-level alert? Why?" The rich merchant frowned and asked curiously.
The gate guard put away the few mid-tier spirit stones and whispered softly to the rich merchant: "There were already several demon foxes trying to sneak into the city. We failed to catch any of them, but the higher-ups think that there might be some big conspiracy behind it, so they decided to tighten the security."
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips and fox ears twitched slightly when she eavesdropped the news from the gate guard.
''Damn it~! So, there were already other participant foxes who tried to sneak into the city before me?! Not only did they fail to sneak into the city, but they even alerted the city''s higher-ups and made them raise their vignce!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart.
Just like Tang Li Xue had guessed, the strange inscription engraved on the city wall should be the one that prevents those foxes from sneaking easily into the city.
But those foxes were still quite lucky since they could still run away intact after being discovered by those guards. If those Nascent Soul Stage cultivators who guarding inside the city made their move, all of them might have already been caught by now.
The gate guard patted the rich merchant''s shoulder andforted him: "Hahaha~! You do not need to worry too much about it~! As long as your wife is not from the beast race, she should certainly be able to go through all the procedures for creating the new identity document easily. With my help, it only takes one hour at most."
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and thought: ''I am sorry, but this ''wife'' is clearly 100% from the beast race~! Well, except for her soul...''
"Come here, follow me~!" The gate guard called Tang Li Xue to their post.
Tang Li Xue thought carefully about her next move for a few moments, and she called back those gate guards: "Ah, Mr. Gatekeeper~! I remember I actually brought my identity document with me~! I put it in under my coat, so I forgot about it before."
Several gate guards stared at Tang Li Xue more suspiciously and one of them asked: "Really? Then show it to us now!"
Tang Li Xue took out nothing, and she immediately activated her [Mystic Whisper].
"All of you have already seen my identity document, so let me pass the gate right now." Tang Li Xue''s [Mystic Whisper] prated directly into their consciousness.
The eyes of those gate guards became nk for a few moments, and then they replied to Tang Li Xue: "Ah, you are right. We already approved your identity document. You can pass the gate now. Next one~!"
Those gate guards stopped paying attention to Tang Li Xue, the rich merchant, and their escort group then focused on checking the next person.
Tang Li Xue, the rich merchant, and the driver entered the carriage again.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw their carriage pass the gate and enter the city without any obstruction.
She was really afraid that there was some kind of device to detect the beast race installed on the gate, or that some kind of rm would be triggered when she used her divine abilities before.
Even after she sessfully entered the city, Tang Li Xue did not n to separate from the rich merchant immediately since she knew nothing about this city at all.
Chapter 613 613: Slave House!
Chapter 613 Chapter 613: ve House!
In the luxurious carriage, Tang Li Xue asked many things about this human city from the rich merchant, and the rich merchant excitedly answered every question in detail one by one.
Tang Li Xue managed to get a lot of information from the rich merchant, but she did not feel relieved at all, instead, she felt even more solemn and worried.
This human city was called Mountain Fortress City.
In the Mountain Fortress City, there were four powerhouses that held the highest authority.
The three among those four powerhouses were the biggest cultivator families in Mountain Fortress City called Xiao Family, Lin Family, and Wang Family.
Thest one was the City Lord of this Mountain Fortress City who held full authority over the cultivator army and city guards.
The ancestor of those three cultivator families and the City Lord should be at the Nascent Soul Stage, so Tang Li Xue must be extremely wary of them.
If she identally bumped into any of them on the way, her identity as a fox from the beast race would certainly be discovered by them in a single nce.
''I see... So, this Mountain Fortress City is split between four powerhouses. Sigh... It seems very troublesome.'' Tang Li Xue thought deeply while frowning deeply.
She had a faint hunch that the kidnapped foxes were in the hands of those four powerhouses. In fact, there was a huge probability that the cultivators from the four powerhouses should be the ones who caught those foxes.
Tang Li Xue also tried to ask for any clues about the kidnapped foxes from the rich merchant. Unfortunately, the rich merchant had been on a business trip to another city a month ago, and he had onlye back now, so he did not know anything about it yet.
After making sure that she could not get any more important information from the rich merchant, Tang Li Xue activated her [Mystic Whisper] again to make the rich merchantpletely forget about her when the carriage stopped in front of the restaurant.
She also did the same thing to the carriage driver and all the escort guards, so she would not leave any clues behind.
Tang Li Xue took away the rich merchant''s spatial ring and swiftly jumped down from the luxurious carriage.
''This [Mystic Whisper] is so convenient to use~! I should practice more in using itter after Ie back to Myriad Foxes Academy.'' Tang Li Xue thought in awe.
Even though it would be impossible for Tang Li Xue to use it that easily on stronger targets such as predator-level foxes, but it was clearly extremely useful in many situations.
For example like now, she did not need to silence this innocent rich merchant and his escort guards topletely erase her trace.
Of course, it worked well on these people because their cultivation levels were only at the Qi Condensation Stage for the rich merchant and the Acupuncture Opening Stage for the escort guards.
Tang Li Xue erased the rich merchant''s spiritual mark on the spatial ring and dripped her own blood on the spatial ring to leave her own spiritual mark, so she could use the spatial ring as her own.
Tang Li Xue checked the content of the spatial ring, and a charming smile was blooming on her enchanting face.
There were at least a few hundred mid-tier spirit stones stored inside the spatial ring. Although, it was not as rich as Elder Yang''s spatial ring, but it was more than enough for Tang Li Xue to squander for a while.
There were also many other things such as daily necessities items, luxurious male clothes, dry foods, drinks, some random merchandise, and so on, but Tang Li Xue ignored them all since they werepletely useless to her.
Tang Li Xue went toward the dark alley, then she took out tens of mid-tier spirit stones from her spatial ring and fed them to Little Loki.
Who knew that her action actually attracted a few thugs to rob her instead.
"Hehehe~! Isn''t this our lucky day?! Such a slender little girl must be quite beautiful! She actually came here to give us money and satisfy us~!" One of the rough thugs said whileughing indecently.
Even though Tang Li Xue already covered her face with a white veil, but her slender figure, silky smooth white skin, and mesmerizing topaz blue eyes were still very conspicuous, and they could easily attract the attention of lecherous thugs like them.
However, Tang Li Xue did not panic or angry at all. On the contrary, she smiled cunningly at them instead.
When those lecherous thugs approached her, Tang Li Xue activated her [Mystic Whisper] and gave an order to them: "All of you, disperse and help me ask around for any clues or information about foxes. After that, you cane back here again and tell me about it."
The expression of those lecherous thugs turned nk for a few moments, and then they replied in unison: "Understood~!"
Those lecherous thugs followed Tang Li Xue''s order and dispersed, then each of them started to ask for any clues and information about foxes from the other passerby.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue decided to take a rest for a while to recover her energy.
To be honest, using [Mystic Whisper] repeatedly to give multiple targets suchplicated orders used up quite a lot of her energy.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to use the previous rich merchant to do it for her, but after thinking carefully, she decided to just change to other people instead.
Since the city gate guards had already seen her with this rich merchant before, so if she still insisted on using the rich merchant to look for the information for her, the city gate guards or even the City Lord might be suspicious, and they might be able to trace it back to her.
It did not take long for those lecherous thugs to find a few pieces of clues about the kidnapped foxes and tell Tang Li Xue about it.
"So, there are extremely beautiful girls with fox ears in the brothel mansion and ve house." Tang Li Xue muttered as her expression turned much colder.
"You all take me to the ve house first." Tang Li Xue said to those lecherous thugs while activating her [Mystic Whisper] again.
If a small girl like her entered the brothel mansion tantly on a broad day like this, it would certainly attract many prying eyes, but the ve house was different.
ording to the information she got, there were many rich merchants and cultivators whether male or female who came in and out of the ve house every day. They usually bought some ves from the ve house to be used as servants.
There were several ve houses in Mountain Fortress City, but the one that sold the girls with fox ears was the Xiao Family''s ve house, so its location was actually quite close to the Xiao Family''s home.
Tang Li Xue actually felt really nervous since the Nascent Soul Stage ancestor of the Xiao Family might be able to sense her.
Thankfully, it was only herself who was thinking too much about it.
It was clearly impossible for the Nascent Soul Stage ancestor of the Xiao Family to always pay attention to the crowded ve house every time.
The ve house''s steward approached Tang Li Xue with a fawning smile on his face and asked: "Good day, young miss! Forgive for my impoliteness, but may I ask what kind of ve you wish to find? Male or female? Children, adults, or elders? I can guarantee we have everything here!"
Tang Li Xue stared at the ve house''s steward and replied while pretending to look curious: "I hear your ve house sells beautiful girls with fox ears. I want to buy them for my collection. The price is not a problem."
"Ah, this..." The ve house''s steward frowned and hesitated.
Tang Li Xue frowned when she saw the reaction of the ve house''s steward and asked with a tone filled with displeasure: "Why?! Do you think I cannot afford to buy them?!"
The ve house''s steward shook his head and politely replied: "No, young miss, it is not like that. I am sorry, but actually, those fox girls have already been reserved by the young masters of the Lin Family and the Wang Family. They had already paid and will take those fox girls tonight."
Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief.
''Luckily, those foxes have not been taken home yet by those young masters, or else it would almost be impossible for anyone to save them since there is Nascent Soul Stage Ancestor there.'' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind.
Tang Li Xue deliberately put a disappointed look and muttered with a frustrated tone: "Sigh, it is really such a pity."
"Can you at least let me take a look at them to satisfy my curiosity? Pretty please~!" Tang Li Xue begged with a pampered look while shoving a dozen mid-tier spirit stones to the ve house''s steward.
The eyes of the ve house''s steward gleamed with greed. He took away the dozen mid-tier spirit stones and whispered to Tang Li Xue: "Cough... Okay, since Young Miss, insist... But only for a few minutes, okay? Oh, and do not touch them because those fox girls have not been tamed yet."
"I understand~! I will only take a look at them." Tang Li Xue nodded at the ve house''s steward.
The steward led Tang Li Xue and her thugs to the deeper ce in the ve house, but the security here was much tighter than outside.
Chapter 614 614: Here Comes Trouble!
Chapter 614 Chapter 614: Here Comes Trouble!
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to bring out the kidnapped foxes by relying on her [Mystic Whisper], but it seemed that was impossible since there were simply too many guards here.
Tang Li Xue could only control a dozen targets at most with her [Mystic Whisper], while there were hundreds or even thousands of guards here.
Moreover, each of the guards'' cultivation was not weaker than the Acupuncture Opening Stage, some of them even reached the Foundation Establishment Stage.
No wonder the ve house''s steward epted her bribe and agreed to her request to see the kidnapped foxes without any fear of being scammed by her.
While the steward led Tang Li Xue to the deeper ce in the ve house, Tang Li Xue''s mind was thinking fast to find some solution to bring out the kidnapped foxes from here.
''Should I wait for those young masters from the Lin Family and the Wang Family toe and pick up those fox girls before I snatched them on their way back?'' Tang Li Xue pondered carefully.
''No, that is a bad idea. The bodyguards of those young masters could not be weak. If my identity is exposed when I fight against those bodyguards, the situation might deteriorate fast instead, and I will be a fugitive in this city.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head and rejected that idea.
Before Tang Li Xue could think of anything useful, the steward had already brought her to the ce where the kidnapped foxes were kept.
There were hundreds of cages and jails lined up neatly in this deep ce of the ve house. It seemed to be the ce to store their higher prices ves while what was ced in the outer area was the cheapest mortal ves.
When Tang Li Xue saw a pair of young sisters with fox tails and fluffy ears bound tightly with iron chains, Tang Li Xue was a bit disappointed since there were only two of them.
"GRAAAAAWWWRRR~!" The pair of fox sisters growled angrily while showing their sharp fangs at the steward and Tang Li Xue.
"Here they are~! Look at their creamy snow-white skin, seductive bumpy figure, and captivating face. No male can stand their charm." The steward muttered to Tang Li Xue while staring lustfully at the pair of fox sisters.
But despite his unbearable lust, the steward still did not dare to touch the pair of fox sisters because these two were already reserved by the young masters from the Lin Family and the Wang Family.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and pouted her pink lips.
Tang Li Xue stared resentfully at their E-cup and thought sulky: ''Well, I am sorry that my figure is not as seductive and bumpy as theirs!''
Even though Tang Li Xue felt sour, but she managed to devise a good n in her mind after she heard the steward''s words.
''No male can stand their charm, right? Then let''s see those stinky men fight with each other because of them~!'' Tang Li Xue secretly sneered slyly in her heart.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Mystic Whisper] and murmured softly to the steward: "Mr. Steward~! Actually, Young Master Xiao is the one who instructed me to take these two back to his room in the Xiao Family''s residence."
Under the mind-controlling effect of Tang Li Xue''s Mystic Whisper], the steward did not doubt Tang Li Xue''s words at all.
"Ah~! What?! But... how about the young masters from the Lin Family and the Wang Family?" The steward eximed in shock and asked in confusion.
Tang Li Xue used her [Mystic Whisper] again for the second time to give another order to the steward: "You do not need to worry~! If anyone asks you about these two, you only need to answer that both of them have already been brought back home by the Xiao family''s young master. Do you understand?"
The steward nodded obediently with a nk expression and muttered: "I understand... So these two fox girls have already been brought back home by the Xiao family''s young master."
"Good guy~! Let''s bring them out from here right now and if any guards ask you on the way just tell them that you did it under the order of the Xiao family''s young master." Tang Li Xuemanded the steward with [Mystic Whisper].
This was the first time she gave a chain ofplicated orders to one target with her [Mystic Whisper]. This actually was more tiring and consumed much more energy than she thought.
In fact, Tang Li Xue nned to give the same orders to several more targets so she could make it more believable, but it seemed it was impossible for her to do it.
Well, it might be possible if she has a powerful mind control type domain like the Crimson Skies Domain, then she would even be able to take control of all of the people and guards here using it.
Tang Li Xue sighed: ''There is no need to waste my time to think about something that I do not have yet. The most important thing for me to do right now is to focus on escorting these two out of this damned ce.''
Meanwhile, the steward had already taken the keys from somewhere else and used them to open the fox girls'' prison.
"RAAAAAWWRRRR~!" The bound fox girls bared their fangs again.
They even tried to bite the steward and Tang Li Xue with their fangs.
But Tang Li Xue quickly pushed them away and raised her hood a bit to show her silver furry fox ears to the fox sisters.
"You... sister..." The fox sisters eximed in surprise and disbelief, but before they could finish their words, Tang Li Xue put her slender finger to her pink lips and blinked at them signaling them to keep silent.
After the fox sisters calmed down, the steward used his keys to open the chains and handcuffs on them.
Then the steward politely led Tang Li Xue and the pair of fox sisters out of the prison.
However, some guards quickly noticed their suspicious movement and approached them, then asked with an interrogative tone: "Hold it~! Why did you let these two out?! Didn''t the head supervisor already give an order to never let these two out unless the young masters from the Lin Family and the Wang Familye to pick them out?"
The steward immediately replied with confidence: "I know, but our Xiao Young Master gave an urgent order to escort these two to his ce right now."
"What?! This is..." The guards shouted in shock, but they immediately fell into hesitation.
Both the young masters of the Lin Family and the Wang Family were surely important figures, but this ve house belonged to Xiao Family.
They would certainly suffer a lot if they dared to disobey the order from the young masters of the Lin Family and the Wang Family, but if they dared to disobey the Xiao Family''s young master, their corpses would certainly be thrown into the forest outside tomorrow.
The several guards fell into a dilemma and felt really bitter. They really regret it right now. It would be better if they were never asked about this at all and pretended not to see it at all.
The steward also understood what was in these guards'' minds and reminded them: "Go~! Warn the other guards and just pretend not to know any about this."
The several guards instantly felt grateful to the steward. They thanked the steward repeatedly and went away to warn the other guards.
''Good job~! As I expect from the ve house''s steward with a lot of working experience~!'' Tang Li Xue gave a thumbs up to the steward in her heart.
This time, Tang Li Xue, the two fox sisters, and the steward were walking without any obstruction and no guards dared to block or question them anymore.
Just as Tang Li Xue thought that everything would go well ording to her n, somethingpletely out of her expectations suddenly happened!
When Tang Li Xue, the two fox sisters, and the steward were walking out from the deeper ce of the ve house, they identally ran into a group of people.
"I cannot wait to see those fox girls anymore~! I hear they are extremely charming and seductive. So much better than the best courtesan in the red district!" One of the men shouted with a lewd expression.
Tang Li Xue''s expression instantly turned paler as she urgently thought: ''Damn it~! I would not be so unlucky, right?! Don''t tell me these people are...''
Before she could react, the other man noticed the two fox sisters and hastily called: "Hey, you there~! Stop~!"
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a moment whether she should bring these two fox sisters to run away from here right now, or pretend to talk with these people and secretly use [Mystic Whisper] on them.
''No, there are too many guards and people here. Taking these two sisters to forcibly escape from here is the worst choice to make!'' Tang Li Xue immediately rejected the first option.
Tang Li Xue and the steward halted their step and stared back at the group of people.
The steward instantly recognized the two people among this group, and he greeted them politely while lowering his head: "Greeting to Young Master Lin and Young Master Wang."
The eyes of Young Master Lin and Young Master Wang instantly brightened with passion when they nced at the two fox sisters.
"That is very kind of you, Steward! We just came here, but you already brought these two out to meet with us!" The Young Master Lin delightedly praised the steward.
The steward shook his head and hastily replied without thinking: "I bring them out under the order of Young Master Xiao, and I must bring these two back to Young Master Xiao''s ce."
Tang Li Xue almost fainted on the spot when she heard the steward''s answer.
She never thought that her n would backfire so badly right at this moment.
Chapter 615 615: Unexpected Danger!
Chapter 615 Chapter 615: Unexpected Danger!
Just when Tang Li Xue had a huge headache, and she urgently thought about her next n.
The expressions of Young Master Lin and Young Master Wang immediately turned dark.
Young Master Lin shouted in anger: "What?! That bast*rd, how dare he vite our bet and try to steal our fox girls?!"
Young Master Wang replied with a cold tone: "Humph! Fortunately, we came here right on time! If not, that traitorous bast*rd would enjoy these two fox girls alone!"
Young Master Lin red at the steward and gave him an order in an arrogant manner: "Those two fox girls are ours! Bring them to us right now!"
The steward became nervous and hesitantly muttered: "Ah?! But... Young Master Lin, our Young Master Xiao ordered us to escort..."
"Servants~! Kick this steward away and bring back those two fox sisters with us~!" The Young Master Wang impatientlymanded his servants and bodyguards.
Tang Li Xue immediately felt the current situation waspletely unfavorable for her and the two fox sisters.
If these people fought with each other here and identally attracted the attention of the Nascent Soul Stage''s Ancestor of the Xiao Family, her identity as Fox Race would be discovered, and she would fall into danger.
"Cough~! Please pardon me for my impoliteness. But please do not be so impatient, Young Master Lin and Young Master Wang. We still do not know the true intention of Young Master Xiao. What if Young Master Xiao intends to escort these two fox girls to the two young masters by himself?"? Tang Li Xue tried to appease the anger of the two young masters.
Young Master Lin and Young Master Wang''s anger decreased a bit after they heard Tang Li Xue''s words, but they did notpletely believe her.
"A woman? Who the hell are you?! You look so suspicious!" Young Master Wang impolitely asked Tang Li Xue.
Young Master Lin also immediately added: "That is right! If you want to talk with us, at least show your face first! If you are a great beauty, we might dly hear your request."
"I am sorry to disappoint the two young masters, but my face got disfigured when I fought against some beasts outside before. I am afraid that my horrible appearance will scare many people, so I decided to wear this veil." Tang Li Xue said a random excuse.
She really did not want to waste too much of her time talking with these people, so she continued to say: "Young Master Xiao ordered me to bring these two fox sisters to his ce. How about this, the two young masters can follow me to meet with Young Master Xiao, so we can discuss this more clearly."
Young Master Lin and Young Master Wang hesitated for a few moments, but in the end, they decided to follow Tang Li Xue''s suggestion.
This ve house belonged to the Xiao Family after all. So, both Young Master Lin and Young Master Wang did not dare offend the Xiao Family too much by making a biggermotion here.
The steward sighed in relief after he saw the two arrogant young masters calm down.
While they walked out together from the ve house, Tang Li Xue secretly used her [All Knowing Eyes] to observe the cultivation level of these people.
Even though her [All Knowing Eyes] still felt blurry as if it was covered with thick fog, but it was not a big problem to use it to inspect the strength of these people from so close.
''The two young masters and his servants are not a big problem. Their cultivation is only at the Acupuncture Opening Stage at most.'' Tang Li Xue secretly evaluated them.
''But the most troublesome is their bodyguards. Most of their bodyguards are at the Foundation Establishment Stage. Four of them even reached the Core Formation Stage.'' Tang Li Xue concluded while staring warily at the four strongest bodyguards who always guarded closely behind the two young masters.
''Damn it~! These four Core Formation Stage bodyguards are really troublesome. My [Mystic Whisper] can only affect them for one moment at best.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in frustration.
While Tang Li Xue tried to devise a better n hastily, they had already arrived at the luxurious carriage parked in front of the ve house.
The two Core Formation Stage bodyguards jumped onto the front of the luxurious carriage, and one of them worked as the driver, while the other two still followed the two young masters and sat right beside them in the carriage.
Tang Li Xue and the two fox sisters also entered the luxurious carriage and sat right in front of the two young masters and two Core Formation Stage bodyguards.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly in annoyance as she thought: ''Why do these bodyguards still follow them so closely like glue?! If only I can find a chance to use my [Mystic Whisper] to control their two young masters, then I can create an extremely favorable situation and quickly get out of here.''
Just as Tang Li Xue started to run out of ideas, Little Loki who stayed silent until now suddenly patted at Tang Li Xue''s fluffy fox ears as if Little Loki warned her to not forget about it, and it could help her out at any time.
A beautiful gentle smile bloomed on Tang Li Xue''s stunning face, but no one could see it since she was still wearing her veil.
''All right, Little Loki~!'' This time, I really need your help~! I am counting on you to distract those four bodyguards for a while. Are you sure you can do it?'' Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki with her telepathy.
''Easy~! Do you need me to eat... err, to kill them for you?'' Little Loki replied back from their mental connection.
''No, you do not need to kill them. We willpletely offend their backer if we kill any of them. At that time, we might not be able to move freely inside this city anymore. You just need to make them busy for a while.'' Tang Li Xue exined to Little Loki with telepathy.
''Got it~!'' Little Loki answeredzily through their mental connection.
Of course, they will not do it right now since this ve house was quite close to the Xiao Family''s mansion.
The other bodyguards and servants got on another two carriages and followed closely behind their carriage.
Before the three carriages departed from the ve house, Tang Li Xue spoke to the two young masters again: "Excuse me, Young Master Lin and Young Master Wang. Young Master Xiao does not wait at his home but at the usual restaurant."
It would be suicide if Tang Li Xue let these two young masters bring her to the Xiao Family''s mansion, so she decided to let them go somewhere else.
Why did she say the usual restaurant?
Well, she did not know any ce in this Mountain Fortress City, but she knew that the mansions of these three cultivator families were located in three different directions.
In short, their meeting ce, or could be said the ''usual restaurant'' should be in the center of the city between the mansions of the three cultivator families, so they could gather together more easily.
Just like Tang Li Xue had guessed, the three carriages were heading to the center of the city.
After waiting for the right timing around five minutes or so, Tang Li Xue said to Little Loki with her telepathy that it could start right now.
Little Loki activated its [Instant Teleportation] and instantly appeared right in front of the luxurious carriage!
[Scythe w Qi]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~!
Little Loki beheaded the two wind-scaled horses that pulling the luxurious carriage in one attack!
The two Core Formation Stage bodyguards who sat in front of the luxurious carriage immediately made their move to stop the carriage from moving forward and crashed into the building.
Little Loki swiftly unleashed its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] to momentary lock the movement of the two Core Formation Stage bodyguards!
BAAAAANNGGG~!
The luxurious carriage crashed hard into the two Core Formation Stage bodyguards.
The two Core Formation Stage bodyguards were unharmed, and they only fell down embarrassedly, but the luxurious carriage tumbled down and rolled several times instead.
Meanwhile, the two Core Formation Stage bodyguards inside the luxurious carriage had already protected the two young masters using their martial souls.
But Tang Li Xue and the two fox girls were not so lucky. They fell and crashed around violently inside the luxurious carriage.
Tang Li Xue took advantage of this chaotic situation to activate her [Mystic Whisper] and muttered to the two young masters: "Young Master Lin and Young Master Wang, I am scared. Can you please let your two bodyguards check what happened outside?"
The expression of the two young masters turned nk for a moment, but it quickly returned to normal.
"Yes, you are right." Both young masters immediately agreed and ordered their two Core Formation Stage bodyguards to check.
"But Young Master..." The two bodyguards hesitated and took a nce suspiciously at Tang Li Xue and the two fox girls.
However, the two young masters did not think that far and shouted angrily at the two bodyguards instead: "Do you dare to disobey our order?! You do not need to worry about our safety as long as you do not go too far from here. Just go and check what happened outside, then report back to us as soon as possible, do you hear me?!"
"Understood~!" The Core Formation Stage bodyguards nodded obediently.
''All ording to my n~!'' Tang Li Xue secretly smirked slyly behind her veil.
When Tang Li Xue thought everything would go smoothly from now on, something out of her expectations suddenly happened again!
BAAANGG~! BOOOOOOMM~!
Someone actuallyunched a vicious attack on their luxurious carriage from outside, and their luxurious carriage exploded to pieces in one attack!
Chapter 616 616: Thrilling Battle on the Street!
Chapter 616 Chapter 616: Thrilling Battle on the Street!
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue had already sensed the iing danger with her [Extrasensory Perception] and quickly used her [Energy Maniption] to create a transparent barrier.
Tang Li Xue managed to protect everyone inside the luxurious carriage on time, but it did not make her happy at all since her n waspletely ruined right now.
What was even more annoying was that she was forced to stay here and protect these two pampered young masters like their personal bodyguards.
She clearly could not just take away the two fox sisters and dump these pampered young masters to die here.
There were too many eye-witnesses that saw she was traveling with these Young Master Lin and Young Master Wang from the ve house.
If they suddenly died here, and she disappeared with two fox sisters, she would certainly be hunted by both Lin Family and Wang Family.
That was clearly the worst case to happen since she still needed to find and save the other eight kidnapped foxes other than these two fox sisters!
''Damn it~! Who dares to attack us right at this moment?! I swear I will skin them alive!'' Tang Li Xue thought in fury.
Even though Tang Li Xue was very angry right now, but her mind was still calm.
She carefully scanned her surroundings but failed to find the culprit.
They were currently in a quite crowded street.
Their sudden battle and explosion clearly made the surrounding people run around in panic. Around a dozen of them even died in the explosion and stampede.
The surrounding situation was extremely chaotic, so it was not easy for Tang Li Xue to find their attacker under this condition.
Because of the luxurious carriage''s explosion, the four Core Formation Stage bodyguards stopped fighting against Little Loki, and they hastily came back to protect the two young masters, so Tang Li Xue lost her only opportunity to control the two young masters with her [Mystic Whisper].
Even the other dozen bodyguards quickly got off from their carriage. They surrounded the two young masters to protect them from any enemies.
Tang Li Xue felt extremely regretful, but there was nothing she could do right now other than try to find another way to bring away the two fox sisters from them.
When Tang Li Xue felt the situation should be already stable and safe for them, the culprit actually dared tounch another attack toward them!
"Watch out~!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she sensed another iing danger with her [Extrasensory Perception].
She quickly pulled down the two fox sisters andy down on the ground.
Tens of arrows shot mercilessly toward their group!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Dozens of bodyguards with lower cultivation level was killed almost instantly by the rain of arrows!
Tang Li Xue still managed to protect herself and the two fox sisters using her transparent barrier created from [Energy Maniption].
''Arrows?! I thought the attackers should be mypetitors in this treasure game, but since they attack using arrows, it means the attackers are humans, not foxes!'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had expected, the attackers on the top of nearby buildings were actually humans covered in ck clothes from head to toe.
But not long after Tang Li Xue concluded like that, something out of her expectations was happening in front of her eyes again.
An amber-colored fox d in the vermillion me appeared on the ck-clothed humans'' side!
While she was stunned in confusion and astonishment, her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed an iing danger much more intense than before!
Tang Li Xue''s expression instantly changed as she quickly patted the ground with her palm and activated her [Mother Earth''s Gift]!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The ground below Tang Li Xue and the two fox sisters'' feet suddenly raised into a stone wall and lifted the three of them to a dozen meters high.
The amber-colored fox d in the vermillion me took a deep breath and let out a vermillion me ray from its mouth!
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The vermillion me ray decimated everything in its path including the stone wall Tang Li Xue erected!
It even created a deep crack along the street!
One of the four Core Formation Stage bodyguards was split in two at his waist by the vermillion me ray and died without even realizing what had hit him, while the other one lost his right hand.
Only two Core Formation Stage bodyguards who quickly carried the two young masters to get away from here beforehand could escape unharmed.
Because the stone wall was broken by the vermillion me ray, Tang Li Xue and the two fox sisters fell down from the top of the stone wall.
Tang Li Xue hastily caught the two fox sisters and created a flying disc under their feet with her [Energy maniption].
''Little Loki, change of n~! Please stall these people and that fox for a while, I will bring these two fox girls out safely from here first! Then you can chase after uster.'' Tang Li Xue instructed Little Loki with her telepathy.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue did not have any confidence that she could face these people plus the amber-colored fox at once in her Human transfiguration form since she could only use a third of her overall stats in this form.
Surprisingly, only the amber-colored fox hastily chased after Tang Li Xue and the two fox sisters, while the ck-clothed people quickly chased after the two young masters instead.
The amber-colored fox jumped from the top of one building to another, while the ck-clothed people jumped down and entered the narrow alley to chase the two young masters that had been carried away by their two Core Formation Stage bodyguards.
However, the Core Formation Stage bodyguard who lost his right hand swiftly blocked the ck-clothed people in the narrow alley. Both sides were fighting very fiercely without regard for their lives.
At that time, the amber-colored fox almost jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s flying disc from the rooftop, Little Loki immediately used its [Instant Teleportation] to appear right above the amber-colored fox!
[Scythe w Qi]~!
The amber-colored fox halted its step, and Little Loki''s [Scythe w Qi] hit the roof tiles in front of the amber-colored fox.
If the amber-colored fox still forcefully jumped toward Tang Li Xue''s flying disc, it would be already cut in two by Little Loki''s [Scythe w Qi]!
The amber-colored fox red at Little Loki in annoyance when Little Lokinded on the rooftop and satzily right in front of it.
The amber-colored fox gnashed its fangs in anger at Little Loki''s naked provocation. It unleashed its vermillion mes to attack Little Loki while Little Loki summoned out its two [Phantom Splitter] clones to face the amber-colored fox.
The amber-colored fox was fighting fiercely against the three Little Lokis at once using its vermillion mes!
.....
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after making sure that no one followed behind her.
''Fiuh~! That was too thrilling for me~! I hope there will be no unexpected thing happening again from now on.'' Tang Li Xue annoyedlyined in her heart.
After flying a bit farther, Tang Li Xue controlled the flying disc tond and dispersed the flying disc.
Then she immediately created two sets of white hooded cloaks with her [Energy Maniption] to cover the two fox sisters since their fox tails and ears were too eye-catching.
"Follow me closely~!" Tang Li Xue muttered to the two fox sisters with a solemn expression.
The two fox sisters nodded obediently to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue did not dare to bring the two fox sisters to fly with her flying disc in this Mountain Fortress City, because it was easy to attract unwanted attention in that way.
It would be easier to get rid of their chasers by blending and mingling with the crowd of people in the street.
While leading the way in front of the two fox sisters, Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she found another problem in this treasure game.
The rules of this treasure game only said to set free all the kidnapped foxes from the hands of those humans, but it did not mention very clearly what it means to set them free.
''Should I bring them out of this city and escort them to the forest outside the city to be counted as set them free?'' Tang Li Xue thought in frustration.
After pondering for a while, Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes flickered in hesitation: ''It is too troublesome for me to escort them out from the city to the forest by myself every time.''
''Since the rules do not specify how we should set them free, then it should not have any restrictions. As long as we can take the kidnapped foxes out of the city, it should be considered as setting them free.'' Tang Li Xue thought as she nned to use a more convenient way to do it.
Tang Li Xue approached the nearby carriage and used her [Mystic Whisper] on the carriage driver. She brought the two fox sisters to ride on the carriage.
After the carriage reached the city gate, Tang Li Xue used her [Mystic Whisper] on the gate guards, so they would let the carriage pass the city gate without any trouble.
''With this, it should be counted that I managed to set free two kidnapped foxes from humans, right? Umm... Well, it should be...'' Tang Li Xue hesitantly thought.
Tang Li Xue herself did not go out of the city with that carriage. She went back into the slum area to meet with the previous thugs and let them get more information for her.
Chapter 617 617: Mountain Fortress City’s Complicated Situation!
Chapter 617 Chapter 617: Mountain Fortress City''s Complicated Situation!
When Tang Li Xue reached the slum area, Little Loki had already been waiting for her there because Tang Li Xue had appointed Little Loki to meet here if they got separatedter.
"Meow~!" Little Loki jumped from the building''s roof to Tang Li Xue''s shoulder.
"Good job, Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue patted Little Loki''s tiny furry head gently and praised it.
Then she took out half of all her mid-tier spirit stones from the spatial ring and fed it to the hungry Little Loki.
Little Loki happily devoured them all to recover its energy.
"Did you manage to defeat that amber-colored fox?" Tang Li Xue asked curiously.
Little Loki shook its head and replied while waving its tiny paw: "Nyaaww mew nyann~!"
"I see... So, it ran away after it could no longer find any trace of me. It makes sense since the target of that amber-colored fox was the fox sisters who were with me at that time." Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding.
But this also made Tang Li Xue realize one more problem from this treasure game.
Yes, they actually did not need to find and save the kidnapped foxes by themselves. They could also rob the other foxes after the other foxes found and saved the kidnapped foxes.
"What a headache~?! How could the supervisor of this treasure game fail to find such a loophole?! No, they might deliberately leave such a loophole to see how we react to it and figure out a way to prevent it from happening~!" Tang Li Xue muttered with an annoyed expression.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and continued to say: "Anyway, that is not an urgent thing to think about right now. The most important thing to do right now is to find how the hell that amber-colored fox could cooperate with humans!"
The amber-colored fox clearly did not have any mind-controlling type divine ability like her [Mystic Whisper], so how could it cooperate with humans?!
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead gently with her slender fingers and whispered: "The information I obtained is still too little. I need to gather more crucial information, so I can deduce and devise more precise ns. Sigh... It seems this treasure game is much moreplicated than I had thought."
Compared to the early treasure games, they were more like simple child games, while herst two treasure games were getting more and moreplicated and troublesome.
Tang Li Xue had a hunch that the first phase of the Foxes Hunting Festival would be over soon, and they would enter the second phase earlier than she had expected.
After grasping what she needed, Tang Li Xue immediately gathered many people from the slum area and used her [Mystic Whisper] to make them find more information about the kidnapped foxes and the intricate connection between the four powerhouses of the Mountain Fortress City.
Tang Li Xue''s energy was almostpletely exhausted after she used her [Mystic Whisper] repeatedly on many targets.
Fortunately, the cultivators living in this slum area had low-level cultivation, and more than half of the inhabitants were only ordinary mortals.
Tang Li Xue took a rest in one of the dpidated houses in the slum area to recover her energy while waiting patiently for those people to find the information she wanted.
A few hours passed in the blink of an eye and the skies above the Mountain Fortress City had already turned dark, those slum people began toe back home and reported to Tang Li Xue one by one.
Most of the information they got was iplete and confusing, but some of it was extremely crucial for Tang Li Xue.
"Eternal Joyous Cult? You said the group who attacked the two young masters from Lin Family and Wang Family on the street today is from Eternal Joyous Cult?" Tang Li Xue asked while frowning deeper.
The slum people nodded their heads and exined more clearly to Tang Li Xue.
The people in Eternal Joyous Cult were mostly dissatisfied with the tyranny of the four powerhouses, so they banded together to rebel against the four powerhouses.
But Tang Li Xue thought this Eternal Joyous Cult might even be the people from one of the four powerhouses, and they only used the name of ''Eternal Joyous Cult'' to secretly make it difficult for the other three.
And the most suspicious one was the City Lord himself...
The City Lord has the highest authority in this Mountain Fortress City, and he could order his army and city guards to clean the Eternal Joyous Cult anytime, but he did not do anything until now.
It sounds really suspicious, right?
"So, that amber fox joins the Eternal Joyous Cult in order to find the kidnapped foxes? It should be impossible, right?! I mean cooperation between foxes and humans looks too ridiculous~!" Tang Li Xue murmured in amusement.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and left the first news to ponder forter.
The second news they got was even more important for Tang Li Xue.
Some drunk people identally saw several fox girls in the cage secretly brought into the City Lord''s Mansion this afternoon.
"They were brought into City Lord''s Mansion~?! Sigh, forget it then. It was impossible for me to sneak into the house of Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator to save those fox girls! That is clearly a suicide~! It seems I could only try to save the kidnapped foxes in the brothel house tonight."? Tang Li Xue decided without any hesitation.
But the third news from the slum people instantly pped Tang Li Xue''s face.
The Eternal Joyous Cult attacked the brothel Mansion, brought all the courtesans into custody, and burnt the Mansion down an hour ago.
"Damn it~! They are one step ahead of me this time~!" Tang Li Xue cursed angrily.
Thankfully, thest news was a good one.
Because the Eternal Joyous Cult made too much movement today, the City Lord decided to step in and investigate it right away by himself.
In short, the City Lord would not be in his mansion tonight!
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched in fear when she thought that she had no other choice than to secretly infiltrate the City Lord''s Mansion to save those fox girls right now.
"Did those drunk people see how many fox girls were brought into the City Lord''s Mansion?" Tang Li Xue asked again to make sure.
"Those people did not know for sure since they only caught a glimpse of those fox girls when the wind blew the cage''s cloth cover, but they said it should be more than two." One of the slum people hesitantly answered.
"More than two, huh... It seems I really must go to the City Lord''s Mansion tonight." Tang Li Xue muttered with a helpless tone.
She had already saved two kidnapped foxes from the Xiao Family''s ve Mansion before.
Tang Li Xue did not know if there was only the ember-colored fox joined the Eternal Joyous Cult or if there were more, but the Eternal Joyous Cult saved three kidnapped foxes from Brothel Mansion.
Anyway, she clearly could not let those people and foxes from Eternal Joyous Cult save the fox girls in City Lord''s Mansion, or the fox from their side would surely win this treasure game.
If she managed to save the fox girls detained in the City Lord''s Mansion, it meant she would have already saved around half of the kidnapped foxes or maybe even more!
This was clearly the decisive part of this treasure game!
Before Tang Li Xue set off to the City Lord''s Mansion with Little Loki, she received even better good news.
Yaya had already recoveredpletely from the previous [War Goddess Mode]''s violent bacsh, and she could fight or enter [DIvine Possession] with Tang Li Xue at any time.
Her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], had alsopletely recovered from its severe wounds from the previous second treasure game.
Tang Li Xue smiled gleefully as she released out Yaya from her system''s pet space.
"Ya yayaya~!" Yaya happily flew around Tang Li Xue and hugged Tang Li Xue''s cheek, then gave her a lot of kisses.
At first, Little Loki did not care much and still showed itszy look, but it quickly became unhappy when it saw Yaya kissing Tang Li Xue''s cheek many times.
Little Loki red coldly at Yaya, while Yaya also stared back at Little Loki. Their stares shed fiercely for a few moments before both of them snorted and turned away cockily.
Tang Li Xue giggled as she felt ticklish by Yaya''s kisses, and she also kissed Yaya back.
"Let''s go, Yaya~! Our next destination ce might be very dangerous, so I will surely need your helpter." Tang Li Xue said while patting Yaya''s tiny head.
Yaya patted her chest with a reassuring smile as if she was saying ''Leave it to me''.
"Nyaaa~!" Little Loki did not feel happy to be forgotten by Tang Li Xue and called out.
Tang Li Xue also patted Little Loki''s furry head gently andforted it: "Of course, you are also indispensable, Little Loki~!"
"It is such a pity that the Phoenix of Pride is still digesting the golden me fruit and my [Twin Moons] is still on cooldown, so I cannot summon out my perfect copy yet. If not, this treasure game should be a piece of cake for us." Tang Li Xue murmured in a regretful tone.
When Tang Li Xue got out of the dpidated house, she found out that there were many city guards scattering and patrolling everywhere.
Tang Li Xue''s appearance looked suspicious with her hooded cloak and veil, so the city guards mighte to inspect her as soon as they saw her, so she decided to use [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to avoid them.
Both Little Loki and Yaya also used their own skill to turn invisible.
After they got out of the slum area, they actually saw more city guards and the army patrolling on the street.
Chapter 618 618: Infiltrate the City Lords Mansion!
Chapter618 618: Infiltrate the City Lord''s Mansion!
''Their movement is really big. Does the City Lord seriously want to find and eradicate the Eternal Joyous Cult or is it just an act?'' Tang Li Xue frowned a bit as she thought it carefully.
Previously, Tang Li Xue deduced that the Eternal Joyous Cult was the City Lord''s chess piece to suppress the power and growth of the three biggest cultivator families, but she was not sure about that anymore.
Tang Li Xue shook her head to shake away all distracting thoughts and muttered: "Forget it... Anyway, that is not important anymore. Once I manage to save the kidnapped foxes in the City Lord''s Mansion, I will win this treasure game."
Tang Li Xue used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and dashed toward the City Lord''s Mansion under the cover of night skies.
Tang Li Xue failed to realize that sometimes seemingly insignificant information could determine victory or defeat, even life or death, and she might need to learn a painful lesson from that.
It could not be helped since Tang Li Xue herself stillcked a lot of experience in dealing with such aplicated matter involving several human powerhouses.
But the purpose of the Fox Race''s higher-ups in creating treasure games such as this one might be also to teach their younger generation about how cunning and treacherous humans could be.
The Undead Race might be their main enemy for now, but their beast race should never forget the Human Race''s wickedness and treachery just because they were in a cooperative rtionship at this moment.
For the higher-ups of the Beast Race, the Human Race might be much worse than the Undead Race in some situations, since they were the creatures who could kindly smile at you and call you friends, brothers, or sisters at one moment but stab you in the back the next moment.
Meanwhile, it did not take long for Tang Li Xue to reach the City Lord''s Mansion with Yaya and Little Loki.
Even though many city guards and the army were patrolling the street right now, but the City Lord''s Mansion was still the most tightly guardedpared to the other ces.
Even Tang Li Xue with her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] turned on still did not dare to sneak in rashly at this moment.
"Damn it~! That inscription on the wall of City Lord''s Mansion looks identical to the one engraved on the city wall outside. It really gives me a bad feeling vibe as if something bad would happen if I carelessly touch it." Tang Li Xue murmured with a solemn expression.
With her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue''s danger sense had also be much more sensitive, so her hunch about the inscription on the wall should be not far from the truth.
Even though she could not pass through the wall with her [Ethereal Form], Tang Li Xue still had many ways to sneak into the City Lord''s Mansion, but the problem right now was which way was the most effective.
"Sigh... If only I had more time, I could buy talisman papers from the street shop and make some talismans for emergency situations." Tang Li Xue said with a regretful tone.
Among all the talismans she could make, the [Stealth Illusion Talisman] should be the most useful since it could make her disguise as the guard.
But there was no time to whine or regret since she had already reached the City Lord''s Mansion, and it was impossible for her to retreat without doing anything tonight.
Tang Li Xue hugged both Little Loki and Yaya, then activated her [Shadow sh] to teleport into the building''s shadow behind the wall.
She could also jump or fly over the wall, but she was afraid that someone would identally spot her since there were so many guards there. Some of them even reached the Core Formation Stage, and they might have some skills or techniques to see through her [Ethereal Form]''s invisibility.
Tang Li Xue silently approached two guards who were patrolling nearby and used her [Mystic Whisper] on them: "Tell me where are you guys detaining those fox girls~?!"
Tang Li Xue''s words prated into their deepest consciousness, and they instantly fell into her control.
"We do not know. We never heard anything about fox girls." The two guards replied to Tang Li Xue obediently.
"Go and try to ask the other guards about it. Report back to me here after you find some clues or information about it. Remember to never mention anything about me." Tang Li Xue ordered the two guards with her [Mystic Whisper] again.
"Understood~!" The two guards nodded and dispersed to ask the other guards about the fox girls.
Tang Li Xue sighed in amazement while muttering: "This [Mystic Whisper] is surely extremely useful in almost all situations. No wonder that Apex Predator level fox with Crimson Skies Domain be so arrogant and unrestrained."
The City Lord''s Mansion was extremely huge, and there were more than twentyrge buildings there.
If Tang Li Xue tried to find the kidnapped fox girls by blindly searching around alone, she might not be able to find them even if she was given a few days.
Tang Li Xue repeatedly did the same thing to more than a dozen patrolling guards.
She only stopped after she only had half of her energy left.
Tang Li Xue brought Yaya and Little Loki to hide in one of the city guard''s resting rooms.
While waiting for the information from those mind-controlled guards, she used this time to rest and recover her energy.
.....
Meanwhile, those more than a dozen mind-controlled guards had already scattered around the City Lord Mansion and began to ask about the detained fox girls.
But Tang Li Xue clearly failed to realize the three absolute rules of these City Lord''s guards.
Obey all orders from superiors, never inquire about anything that you should not ask, and report back any suspicious thing no matter how small it is.
Their current move clearly vited the second absolute rule!
Their unusual movement immediately attracted the suspicion of the other guards, and they hastily reported it to their superior.
The guard''s captain immediately made a swift move and led many other guards to catch all of the mind-controlled guards who were asking around about the detained fox girls.
All of them were brought into the interrogation room to be interrogated.
But no matter what method they used to interrogate these mind-controlled guards, they still refused to say anything.
Without any other choice, one of the guard captains used the Soul Searching Technique on one of the mind-controlled guards to peek at his memories.
Unfortunately, they still failed to find anything useful about the person who instructed them to do this.
"What should we do? Should we report it to the City Lord right now?" One of the guard captains asked while frowning deeply.
The second guard captain shook his head to reject that idea and replied: "If we report it to the City Lord right now, it will only show our ipetence since these guards are our own people. We might get severely punished because of them."
The third guard captain nodded in agreement and added: "That''s right! It would not be toote to report this to the City Lord after we find the person behind them. At that time, we will look more reliable in front of the City Lord, and we might even be rewarded for our merit."
The first guard captain still frowned and said: "That might be the best option, but we still cannot find any clue about the person behind them even after we used the Soul Searching Technique on a few of them."
The cunning third captain smiled and spoke out his thoughts: "Since we cannot find any clue after we used the Soul Searching Technique on a few of them, then it means they might bepletely innocent."
The second captain felt dizzy at the third captain''s cryptic words and urged: "I really hate this about you! Just say what you think clearly!"
The cunning third captainughed and continued to say: "Do all of you never think that their mind might be controlled by someone using a spell or technique?"
The eyes of the first and second guard captains immediately shone brighter in excitement and eximed at the same time: "You are so smart~! How could we never think that?!"
The third captain nodded while kept smiling and muttered: "Bring the Tracing Compass here~! Their mastermind ordered them to ask around about the detained fox girls. So, it means the mastermind''s order still has the follow-up order such as reporting the information back to him."
"Since there is a follow-up order for them to do, there should be some residual aura left on them by the mastermind, so they could finish carrying out their task. If we can extract the residual aura from them, and use the Tracing Compass to track the location of the mastermind..." The third captain muttered while sneering slyly.
"Then we can catch the mastermind behind this~!" The first and second captains shouted in excitement.
Chapter 619 619: Encirclement!
Chapter619 619: Encirclement!
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was still hiding in one of the city guard''s resting rooms with Yaya and Little Loki while patiently waiting for the report from the guards she had already controlled with her [Mystic Whisper].
"What took them so long to do such a simple task?!" Tang Li Xue pouted her pink lips impatiently.
She had already waited for almost two hours right now. Even her energy had already fully recovered long ago.
Tang Li Xue hesitated whether she should continue to wait or maybe she should just use her [Mystic Whisper] on more guards so they could look for more information faster.
"No, we cannot keep waiting without doing anything like this~! Our time is not much after all~! Who knows if the City Lord wille back home soonter~!" Tang Li Xue muttered with an annoyed expression.
"Nyaaaw~!" Little Loki growled softly to the door.
Tang Li Xue''s expression instantly became solemn after she heard Little Loki''s warning.
Even Yaya''s cute face turned cold as she hastily hovered around Tang Li Xue and prepared to fight at any time.
SWOSH~! SWOSH~! SWOSH~! SWOSH~!
Several ck balls were thrown into Tang Li Xue''s room from the window!
temporarily immobilize even several Foundation Establishment Those ck balls emitted dense smoke mixed with nerve-paralyzing poison which should be more than enough to temporarily immobilize even several Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators.
The several guard captains waited for a few more seconds and after he did not sense any movement from inside the guard''s resting room, he waved his hand to signal his subordinates to break into the room.
BAAAAM~!
A group of guards kicked the door open and stormed into the guard''s resting room while covering their noses and mouths with their palms.
But right at that time...
[Compressed Wind Swords]~! [Moonlight sh]~! [Scythe w Qi]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
That group of guards got ughtered by Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki almost instantly in one move!
The three of them swiftly dashed out from the guard''s resting room, but many other guards had already waited for them outside!
"Shoot them~!" Several guard captains gave another order to his subordinates.
More than a hundred guards shot out their arrows toward Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki at once!
A densely packed rain of arrows filled Tang Li Xue''s vision just when she dashed out from the guard''s resting room!
She quickly used [Energy Maniption] to create a transparent barrier to cover herself, Little Loki, and Yaya!
But Yaya acted even faster than Tang Li Xue and unleashed [Hurricane Barrier] to protect the three of them!
A wall of violent wind instantly blocked the densely packed arrows that were shooting toward them!
Meanwhile, Little Loki had already summoned out its two [Phantom Splitter] clones. The three of them used [Instant Teleportation] and appeared right in the middle of the formation of hundreds of guards!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]~!
With the three Little Lokis activated [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] at once, almost all of the hundreds of guards got immobilized all of a sudden!
Yaya immediately took this chance to mercilessly unleash her most powerful killing move to wipe out those guards!
[Cyclone Storm]~!
A huge pir of hurricane condensed from countless dancing sharp wind des was flying swiftly toward those hundreds of immobilized guards!
Just like a gigantic meat grinder, Yaya''s [Cyclone Storm] chopped all of those hundreds of immobilized guards on its way into minced meat!
But instead of really turning into bloody minced meat, those hundreds of guards turned into a group of white lights and dissipated into nothingness.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched slightly in amazement.
She thought they must fight hard to break out from these guards'' encirclement, but who knew that everything was over before she could do anything?!
''I thought these two did not get along well with each other all this time, but it seemed I was really wrong. Their teamwork is beyond perfect! Especially thatstbo is extremely terrifying!'' Tang Li Xue thought in astonishment.
If Yaya had already recovered and awoken since the previous Interracial War treasure game, they really might be able to win it far more easily!
Of course, their battle was still far from over.
The cultivation level of those hundreds of guards was only at the Qi Condensation Stage to the Acupuncture Opening Stage. Those guards were clearly only cannon fodders to test their strength and skills.
The main force of these City Lord''s guards were the dozen guard captains at the Core Formation Stage!
Even Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki must go all out if they want to defeat those dozen guard captains.
But the problem was that Tang Li Xue never had any intention of wasting her precious time and energy fighting against these troublesome guard captains.
Tang Li Xue''s mind worked fast to think of her next n.
''It might no longer be possible for us to look for the detained foxes tonight under this situation. But if we retreat from here just like that right now, we might not have any other chance to sneak into here ever againter.'' Tang Li Xue pondered as she hesitated for a while.
"Meow Nyaaaann~!" Little Loki used [Instant Teleportation] and sat back on Tang Li Xue''s shoulder, then it patted Tang Li Xue''s shoulder gently while pointing its paw at one of the guard captains.
Tang Li Xue took a nce at that guard captain and found out that he held something like a Feng Shui Compass.
"You mean they can find out hiding location because of thatpass?!" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki with an unsure tone.
"Mew Mew~!" Little Loki meowed while nodding its tiny furry head confidently.
While Little Loki discussed it with Tang Li Xue, more than a dozen guard captains had already gathered here because of their greatmotion.
"What happening here?!" Some guard captains who still did not understand what happening asked the other guard captains.
At first, the three guard captains nned to secretly seize the merit of catching the intruders so the three of them would be rewarded by the City Lordter, but it became impossible right now.
So, those three guard captains could only helplessly tell the other guard captains about what they were currently doing right now.
More than a dozen guard captains instantly became excited after they heard it, and all of them were eager to catch the intruders.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned grim when she saw more than a dozen Core Formation Stage guard captains staring at her with impatient eager eyes.
Unfortunately, she could not just run away from here right now, since they had a treasurepass that could urately track her location.
In short, if she really wanted to escape safely from here, she must destroy that trackingpass first!
If not, the City Lord would certainly use that trackingpass to find and catch her sooner orter. At that time, she could no longer run or hide.
Being hunted by the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator without any ce to run or hide... Just imagining it was enough to make Tang Li Xue shudder in horror.
Fortunately, these guard captains were greedy for merit, and they did not immediately call the City Lord back, then give that trackingpass to the City Lord, or her fate might really be over now.
It was not that hard to guess that the trackingpass was able to track her because she used [Mystic Whisper] on those guards.
Although Tang Li Xue did not know for sure how they did it with that trackingpass, but the problem should not be far from that.
Tang Li Xue regretted it very much because she was not careful enough. She should just search it carefully in each building and room. With the help of Yaya with her extreme speed and Little Loki with its [Phantom Splitters], they might really be able to find those detained fox girls before sunrise.
"Sigh, it is already toote to regret it now. All I can do right now is to fix everything as much as I can!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she red fiercely at the guard captain who held the trackingpass.
Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones activated their [Instant Teleportation] and instantly appeared right beside the guard captain who held the trackingpass!
However, those guard captains had already predicted it, and they immediately attacked Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones before Little Loki could do anything!
Several flying knives and flying swords were flying swiftly toward Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones at once!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]~!
All of the flying knives and flying swords froze in mid-air before they could touch Little Loki!
More than a dozen guard captains had not given up and prepared to unleash another attack on Little Loki, but Tang Li Xue and Yaya had already shed toward them to help Litte Loki!
Tang Li Xue condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and created apressed sharp sword with her [Energy Maniption], but she felt it was not enough, so she used [Sharp Edge Power] on thepressed sharp sword to make it much more lethal!
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Rapid Quick shes!
[Compressed Wind Swords]~!
Both Tang Li Xue and Yaya unleashed their attack on the several guard captains at the same time!
However, those guard captains were veteran fighters who already fought in many bloody battles. They clearly could not be easily defeated.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue''s overall stats were only a third of her human form, so those guard captains could easily block her attacks with the weapon in their hands.
Meanwhile, the other hundreds of ordinary guards had already formed an encirclement formation to help their captains!
Chapter 620 620: Sudden Chaotic Situation!
Chapter620 620: Sudden Chaotic Situation!
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki, who were currently fighting against more than a dozen Core Formation Stage guard captains, werepletely trapped amidst the formation of hundreds of ordinary guards.
"Shot~!" One of the guard captains shouted as all of the guard captains jumped high into the air.
SWOOOSH~! SWOOOSH~! SWOOOSH~! SWOOOSH~!
Then hundreds of ordinary guards shot countless fire arrows toward Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki!
"These annoying people~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anger as she prepared to set up a protective barrier with her [Energy Maniption].
But Yaya acted even faster than Tang Li Xue, and she already used [Hurricane Barrier] to block all of the iing fire arrows!
However, all of their actions had already long been expected by those guard captains.
Those guard captains never counted on those fire arrows to take down Tang Li Xue and her group.
While Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki were distracted by those countless fire arrows, all of the guard captains secretly took out [Demon Sealing Ropes] from their spatial rings!
After Yaya''s [Hurricane Barrier] managed to block all of the iing fire arrows and dissipated, all of the guard captains threw the [Demon Sealing Ropes] toward Tang Li Xue''s group at the same time!
More than ten [Demon Sealing Ropes] automatically locked on Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki, then flew toward them with lightning speed!
Tang Li Xue felt a faint threat from those [Demon Sealing Ropes] with her [Extrasensory Perception], so she swiftly swung thepressed white sword in her grasp to block them!
Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
Tang Li Xue''s feet took circr steps while twisting her slender waist, and then she waved thepressed white sword in her grasp several times rapidly!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Surprisingly, the extremely sharp white swordpressed from a dozen swords created by Tang Li Xue''s [Energy Maniption] actually failed to cut these flying ropes!
Moreover, thispressed white sword was already infused with [Sharp Edge Power]!
"Damn it~! What the hell are these ropes?! There is something creepy about them! Yaya, Little Loki, be careful~! Do not be entangled by them!" Tang Li Xue warned Yaya and Little Loki with a solemn tone.
Yaya and Little Loki nodded at Tang Li Xue, but both of them hadpletely different attitudes.
Yaya really listened to Tang Li Xue''s advice and treated those flying ropes with a solemn attitude.
Meanwhile, Little Loki still did not take those flying ropes seriously at all and wondered if it could secretly eat those flying ropes when no one paid attention to them.
Little Loki licked its lips as it greedily stared at the approaching flying ropes and thought: ''No one can me me if those flying ropes identally fly to my mouth, right?''
While Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki were busily facing those more than ten [Demon Sealing Ropes], one of the guard captains gave an order to all the ordinary guards again: "Shoot them~!"
Hundreds of ordinary guards shot countless fire arrows toward Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki for the second time!
"Yaya, block those fire arrows~! Leave those flying ropes to me!" Tang Li Xue said to Yaya.
Yaya nodded and immediately used her [Hurricane Barrier] to block all of the iing fire arrows, but because of it, she could no longer take care of those [Demon Sealing Ropes] for now.
Tang Li Xue had already prepared to face those [Demon Sealing Ropes] with thepressed white sword in her grasp, a pair of [Sun Dragon ws], and [Sun Dragon Fangs], but when all of those [Demon Sealing Ropes] were shing very swiftly toward her simultaneously...
Little Loki suddenly jumped right in front of Tang Li Xue and some of those [Demon Sealing Ropes] ''identally'' entered its tiny mouth!
Tang Li Xue: "....."
All of the guard captains: "....."
No one expected that Little Loki would suddenly jump in and swallow a few of those [Demon Sealing Ropes], while all of those guard captains werepletely dumbfounded by Little Loki''s uprehensive action.
"It... It swallowed our [Demon Sealing Ropes]?!" One of the guard captains eximed in shock and disbelief.
"[Demon Sealing Ropes] should be designed to tie up all the beasts and demons. How could it swallow them just like that?!" The other guard captain shouted in fright.
"Is that cat going to have a stomachache soon for swallowing them?" The third guard captain asked with a curious tone.
"Oy, you guys... Is this really the time for us to worry about that?! Please be more serious or all of our [Demon Sealing Ropes] might really be eaten by that little monster." The fourth guard captain scolded his teammates.
After that, the guard captains really decided to be a lot more serious.
Not only did they skillfully control the rest of [Demon Sealing Ropes] to keep assaulting Tang Li Xue and her group, but all of the guard captains also took out their weapons and began to attack Tang Li Xue and her group fiercely!
Even with the help of Little Loki and Yaya, Tang Li Xue still felt extremely suffocated by the relentless assaults of the guard captains and [Demon Sealing Ropes] that kept attacking her from all directions!
"Damn it~! This is really not looking good~! We had already fallen into their rhythm. At this rate, they will definitely wear us down slowly until we getpletely exhausted, and we will surely be caught by them sooner orter~!" Tang Li Xue said with a grim tone.
But despite already realizing it, Tang Li Xue still could not think of any good way out of this unfavorable situation.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she thought hesitantly: ''Since the situation has already be like this, then there should be no need for me to hide my identity anymore, right? Should I just revert back to my fox form and go all out in this battle?''
With her sword technique, plus a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs], the current Tang Li Xue in her human form could only barely hold on against two or three Core Formation Stage guard captains.
The other ten or so Core Formation Stage guard captains plus their [Demon Sealing Ropes] were currently fighting fiercely against Yaya, Little Loki, and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones.
These Core Formation Stage guard captains did not be that serious yet since neither of them used their martial souls.
It was clear that these guard captains did not n to kill Tang Li Xue yet and only nned to catch her alive for now.
Well...Tang Li Xue also did not use her martial soul yet, but she was afraid that if she used her martial soul or reverted back to her fox form, these guard captains would start to get serious too, and go all out to kill her.
Or even worse, they might urgently contact the City Lord and warn the City Lord toe back as soon as possible to catch her.
In short, Tang Li Xue was in a dilemma on what to do right now.
She really wanted to run away from here so badly, but Tracing Compass on these guard captains could track her location urately making it impossible for her to flee or hide.
Just when Tang Li Xue was flustered about what she had to do next...
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!
An earth-shattering explosion suddenly urred~!
Some parts of City Lord Mansion''s wall including some buildings near the wall exploded to pieces!
Fierce mes began to spread everywhere, and thick smoke covered everyone''s vision!
The maids and servants from City Lord Mansion were running around, screaming, and crying in panic!
The expressions of all guard captains turnedpletely pale in that instant.
One of the guard captains red viciously at Tang Li Xue and shouted with a hoarse voice filled with hatred: "YOU... HOW DARE YOU DID THIS TO CITY LORD MANSION?!"
The dumbfounded Tang Li Xue was awoken by the guard captain''s shout. She hastily shook her head and denied it reflexively: "No, it is not me... I swore I was not the one who did it~!"
The other guard captain patted at the first guard captain to calm him down and said: "This is not the time for us to me anyone. We must put out the mes quickly before the mes spread around and burn down the entire mansion."
Looking at so many wounded maids, servants, and guards, Tang Li Xue felt really sorry for them and wanted to summon her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], to cure their wounds and put out the mes.
But she immediately halted her move and realized that the current chaotic situation might be the best for her.
All the guards and their captains were too busy saving people and putting out the mes.
No one paid any attention to her anymore right now!
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a while and gnashed her teeth while thinking tofort herself: ''This is only a treasure game anyway. All the people here are even not real.''
But deep inside her heart, Tang Li Xue faintly suspected that one of the purposes of Fox Race higher-ups for the previous interracial war game and this treasure game was to numb their feelings toward the Human Race, so they would not feel any pity for killing any humans.
It was really a clever gradual brainwash, and even Tang Li Xue herself could not do anything to resist it.
Tang Li Xue shook her head to push away all of the distracting thoughts and annoying feelings in her heart as she hastily dashed deeper into the City Lord Mansion with Yaya and Little Loki.
''I must find those detained foxes and send all of them out of the city before those guard captains put out the mes and calm down this chaos~! Since they would certainly hunt me down using their Tracking Compass after they finished doing all of that!'' Tang Li Xue thought with a solemn expression.
Chapter 621 621: Greed and Deception!
Chapter621 621: Greed and Deception!
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn herself invisible, while Little Loki and Yaya also used their own skills to turn themselves invisible.
There were more than twenty buildings in this City Lord Mansion, but some of them had already been destroyed to pieces by the great explosion while many of them were currently burning in the fierce me.
Tang Li Xue chose thergest building located in the middle of the most luxurious courtyard, and she brought Yaya and Little Loki to break into it.
Tang Li Xue was very sure that thisrgest building was supposed to be the main residence of the City Lord Mansion.
However, she was not quite sure if the City Lord would really bring those captured foxes into his main residence and imprison them somewhere here.
.....
While Tang Li Xue and her group were busily looking around randomly to find any trace or clue about the captured foxes, the amber-colored fox had already sneaked into the City Lord Mansion too along with the Eternal Joyous Cult.
The one who created the previous great explosion was the amber-colored fox, but the people from the Eternal Joyous Cult was the one who found the best timing for it when all the guards and their captains were too upied to capture Tang Li Xue.
"How long your mes canst?" The middle-aged man asked the amber-colored fox with a hoarse voice.
This middle-aged man covered in ck clothes was the leader of the Eternal Joyous Cult, but no one knew his true identity until now.
"Do not worry~! My mes should be able tost for at least two more hours from now. Their meaningless action can only slow down the speed of my me spreading around. In these two hours, we can do whatever we want here." The amber-colored fox proudly replied.
"How about the preparation on your side? Our n will utterly fail if the City Lordes back before we canplete our task." The amber-colored fox asked back the leader of the Eternal Joyous Cult.
The leader of the Eternal Joyous Cult sneered at the amber-colored fox and replied to reassure it: "I have already made enough preparation beforehand. Even the emergency request for help sent by those guard captains would never reach the City Lord tonight since my people already took care of it. The City Lord will note back here until dawn."
The amber-colored fox nodded appreciatively at the leader of the Eternal Joyous Cult.
Even though the amber-colored fox looked down on humans and felt extremely disgusted to cooperate with humans, but it did not have any other choice than to do it because it did not have a mind-controlling type divine ability like Tang Li Xue.
However, the amber-colored fox was quite confident in its ability to negotiate and deceive these greedy and ambitious humans.
Tang Li Xue''s previous guess was actually mostly correct.
The Eternal Joyous Cult was a secret organization under the control of the City Lord, but Tang Li Xue failed to realize that the Human Race always has boundless greed and would never be satisfied with what they have.
So, the leader of the Eternal Joyous Cult was actually very unhappy to be under the control of the City Lord, and he had long wanted to get out of the City Lord''s control.
The amber-colored fox who already knew the Human Race''s boundless greed and ambition secretly found and persuaded the leader of the Eternal Joyous Cult to team up with it temporarily.
The amber-colored fox actually has the divine ability to detect nearby precious treasures or cultivation resources.
Then the amber-colored fox made a deal with the leader of the Eternal Joyous Cult that it would help him find all of the precious treasures or cultivation resources hidden in the City Lord Mansion as long as he helped it find and save the detained foxes.
The cultivation of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader had already reached the peak of the Core Formation Stage, and he was only a half step away from the Nascent Soul Stage.
He thought that he certainly could breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage as long as he had enough precious treasures or cultivation resources.
At that time, his Eternal Joyous Cult would officially be the fifth behemoth powerhouse in this Mountain Fortress City!
The eyes of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader turned red as his mind and heart were flooded with unstoppable greed and ambition.
While the amber-colored fox secretly sneered at the Eternal Joyous Cult in its heart. It might promise to find all of the precious While the amber-colored fox secretly sneered at the Eternal Joyous Cult in its heart. It might promise to find all of the precious treasures or cultivation resources hidden in the City Lord Mansion, but it never mentions anything about who will have them in the end.
How could the amber-colored fox give up on any of them?!
Whether to save the detained foxes or to obtain the precious treasures and cultivation resources in this City Lord Mansion, the amber-colored fox clearly wants them all~!
The amber-colored fox stared at the leader of Eternal Joyous Cult from behind with an expression filled with disdain and mockery.
The Eternal Joyous Cult had already nted many insiders in the City Lord Mansion, so they could easily obtain any important information they wanted.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader already knew where the kidnapped foxes were currently being held, and he hastily led the amber-colored fox along with his own subordinates to find those kidnapped foxes first.
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, those kidnapped foxes were not imprisoned in the main residence of the City Lord Mansion at all.
Those kidnapped foxes were imprisoned in the secret underground dungeon under the City Lord''s side hall, and Tang Li Xue might never be able to find them even if she checked all the rooms and buildings in this City Lord''s Mansion carefully one by one.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue had already wasted more than half an hour looking around the main residence of the City Lord, but she still failed to find any trace or clue about the kidnapped foxes.
She even already used her [Mystic Whisper] to interrogate more than a dozen maids or servants, but no one knew anything about it.
Yaya, Little Loki, and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones had also helped Tang Li Xue check so many rooms one by one. Unfortunately, they also did not find anything useful.
"Damn it~! How the hell we can find those kidnapped foxes in a ce this big?! This is clearly a mission impossible~!" Tang Li Xue groaned in anger and annoyance.
Just when Tang Li Xue became extremely frustrated, then a faint thought to just give up and run away as soon as possible from here had appeared in her mind...
BAAAAAAANNGG~!
A group of ck-clothed people had kicked open the gate of this main residence and broken into here forcefully!
A few teams of guards that were guarding here hastily unsheathed their weapons and attacked those ck-clothed people fiercely.
However, those ck-clothed people were too strong, and they ughtered all of the guards in only a few breaths!
Tang Li Xue quickly pulled away Yaya and Little Loki, then hid together with them before those ck-clothed people saw her group.
''Who are those people? The people from Eternal Joyous Cult?'' Tang Li Xue frowned while pondering carefully.
But Tang Li Xue''s sullen expression immediately turned into delight and even her topaz blue eyes shone like a pair of blue stars in excitement when she saw a group of fox girls with those ck-clothed people!
Yes, these kidnapped fox girls might not be detained in the main residence, but the precious treasures and the cultivation resources were certainly hidden inside the main residence of the City Lord''s Mansion!
After the people of Eternal Joyous Cult and the amber-colored fox released these kidnapped fox girls from the secret underground dungeon, they brought the kidnapped fox girls with them here to find the hidden precious treasures and the cultivation resources.
''Woah~! Is this the legendary chance encounter?! Tsk, tsk, tsk... It seems these kidnapped fox girls are already fated to be saved by me~! Then I will dly ept them with open arms~!'' Tang Li Xue thought while grinning in joy.
Tang Li Xue also quickly spotted the amber-colored fox among them, but she did not think much about it since the strength of the amber-colored fox was only at the predator level.
It might not be easy to kill the amber-colored fox, but anyone of Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Yaya could still at least fight against the amber-colored fox for some time without losing, and they could easily run away from it too.
The real problem for Tang Li Xue and her group was those ck-clothed people!
This group of ck-clothed people might not be many, but their strength was extremely powerful, not weaker than the previous guard captains at all!
When those ck-clothed people were fighting against the City Lord''s guards just now, Tang Li Xue could sense that their cultivation had already reached the Core Formation Stage!
Especially the middle-aged man at the most front... He might be the leader of the ck-clothed people since his cultivation level was the highest among them.
Even if Tang Li Xue reverted to her fox form and entered [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya, she might not be able tost for long against that leader of the ck-clothed people!
"Sigh... The chance is here, but our strength is not enough topete head-on with them. Let''s wait patiently first and see what they want to do here~!" Tang Li Xue muttered to Little Loki and Yaya, so both of them would not make any rash move without hermand.
Lol... Thankfully, these people are here or Tang Li Xue might never be able to find those kidnapped foxes!
godadi
Chapter 622 622: Dangerous Hidden Passage!
Chapter 622 Chapter 622: Dangerous Hidden Passage!
Yaya nodded obediently to Tang Li Xue as ever, while Little Loki yawned nonchntly as usual.
Tang Li Xue secretly followed the ck-clothed people and the amber-colored fox from behind while maintaining her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], so those people could not detect her at all.
Those ck-clothed people from the Joyous Eternal Cult were extremely cruel and merciless. They ughtered every guard, maid, and servant they had met on their way.
But after anyone got killed, they immediately turned into a group of white light and dissipated to nothingness, so the rooms and corridors in the main residence still remained spotless as before.
After they reached the luxurious bedroom located at the center of the main residence, they immediately dispersed, then touched and groped every item in the main residence as if they were looking for something.
Tang Li Xue peeked at ck-clothed people''s suspicious movements from the gap of the window, and her suspicion grew even stronger.
"What are they doing? Are they looking for something important? Don''t tell me... Woah, are they really looking for the City Lord''s precious treasures?!" Tang Li Xue muttered softly with an excited tone. Even her solemn expression bloomed into a bright smile of joy.
However, Tang Li Xue''s excited smile did notst long, and her expression turned solemn again as she silently thought: ''But so what~?! With our current strength, we would still not be able topete with them either to get the City Lord''s precious treasures or those kidnapped foxes, unless...''
A light of inspiration shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind as her solemn expression changed into an evil sly sneer.
Even Yaya and Little Loki felt ufortable when they saw Tang Li Xue''s sneer.
Tang Li Xue did not have time to pay attention to Yaya and Little Loki''s reaction as she hastily created a small solid tablet with her [Energy Maniption].
Then she took out her golden [Inscription Pen] from her system''s storage and used it to write something on the solid tablet.
Tang Li Xue held Little Loki gently and gave the small solid tablet to it while saying to it with her telepathy: "Little Loki, you hold this tablet first."
Little Loki hugged the small solid tablet that was as big as its tiny body and stared at Tang Li Xue with a confused look.
Tang Li Xue smiled at Little Loki and exined: "I have a simple task for you to do..."
Tang Li Xue lifted Little Loki closer to her and exined her n to Little Loki.
Little Loki finally understood what Tang Li Xue wanted to do and nodded its tiny furry head in agreement.
Little Loki jumped out from Tang Li Xue''s warm embrace andnded gracefully on the floor, then it dashed swiftly until it turned into a ck sh.
"Hey, Little Loki~! Don''t forget to only use your clone-type divine ability to give that tablet to them~! Do you understand~?!" Tang Li Xue warned Little Loki through their mental connection.
"Nya Nyaaaw~! (I know~!)" Little Lokizily replied to Tang Li Xue.
While Tang Li Xue prepared her n with Little Loki, the ck-clothed people had already found a secret mechanism to open the secret passage.
One of the ck-clothed people pulled one of the books from the bookshelf in the right corner of the luxurious room, while the other person carefully rotated a flower vase in the left corner.
CLACK~!
Finally, they heard a loud clicking sound and the ground started to tremble a little as the bookshelf was slowly opened like a gate.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
''Woah~! There is really a hidden passage in this room~!'' Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise and disbelief.
Tang Li Xue was overreacting like this because she had already searched this luxurious room several times before in order to find the clue about the kidnapped foxes, but she failed to find anything useful here.
Who knew that there was actually a hidden passage leading to the secret treasure chamber in this luxurious room?!
Even Yaya had also be extremely curious and excited right after she saw an unexpected hidden passage suddenly revealed in front of her.
But just when Yaya wanted to follow them and fly swiftly to enter the hidden passage, Tang Li Xue hastily pulled her back and said: "Wait, Yaya~! It is too dangerous for us to follow them further, so we will only wait for them here."
Yaya cutely puffed her cheek and pouted in dissatisfaction.
Tang Li Xueughed at Yaya''s cuteness and gently patted her tiny head tofort her.
Actually, Tang Li Xue was also very eager to follow them into the secret passage, but ording to her experience in ying countless RPG games, there should be many dangerous traps inside the hidden passage leading to the treasure room.
It was too dangerous for her and Yaya to follow those ck-clothed people further since they might identally trigger dangerous traps and drag her and Yaya into danger with them.
Moreover, there was also a certain chance that she and Yaya might also get caught by those ck-clothed people and used as cannon fodder to open the way.
Anyway, it did not make sense for her and Yaya to follow them into the hidden passage full of dangers since she only needed to wait patiently for them to get those precious treasures, and she could just rob those precious treasures from them after they got out from there.
.....
Just like what Tang Li Xue had guessed, the hidden passage was really full of dangerous traps.
When the people of the Eternal Joyous Sect and the amber-colored fox stepped into the dark hidden passage, the torches on the right and left sides of the hidden passage were lit by themselves.
Those torches were not dangerous, but the amber-colored fox''s extremely sharp nose instantly smelled something faintly unpleasant.
"Watch out~! There is poisonous gas here~!" The amber-colored fox warned as it hastily held its breath.
Because of its sudden warning, the leader of the Eternal Joyous Sect lost his focus for a moment as he also immediately held his breath, but he identally stepped on a tile until it sunk deep and triggered the surrounding trap.
SWOOSH~! SWOOSH~! SWOOSH~! SWOOSH~!
Hundreds of poisonous arrows were shooting from all directions in that instant!
The Eternal Joyous Sect''s people rapidly swung the weapons in their hands to parry or block the poisonous arrows!
Unfortunately, the poisonous arrows were too many and the hidden passage was too narrow for them to move or swing their weapons around freely, so some of Eternal Joyous Sect''s people failed to block the poisonous arrows and turned into hedgehogs by those poisonous arrows.
"Don''t stop~! Run forward quickly~!" The leader of the Eternal Joyous Sect shouted while he suddenly spun around his body. His spiritual Qi spread and created a momentary barrier to protect all of his people from the poisonous arrows.
After sprinting forward as fast as they could for one hundred meters or so, they finally managed to get out from the shooting area of the poisonous arrows.
But the Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader lost four of his elite subordinates at the Core Formation Stage.
The Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader grimaced in anger and regret, then he red at the amber-colored fox with a pair of eyes filled with killing intent.
"You damn beast~! Why did you not warn us about the poisonous gas and poisonous arrows earlier?! And why did you not help block those poisonous arrows?!" The Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader shouted angrily at the amber-colored fox.
The amber-colored fox rolled its eyes and replied in a t tone without any sense of guilt: "I am sorry, leader. But I really did not realize them until we entered deeper into the hidden passage before."
For the amber-colored fox, the more people from the Eternal Joyous Sect died in the way, the greater its chance to grab the City Lord''s precious treasurester.
So, of course, the amber-colored fox would not really warn these Eternal Joyous Sect''s people about the danger.
However, the Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader clearly did not believe the amber-colored fox''s meaningless excuse at all.
If the amber-colored fox really did not realize the previous dangers, how could it have enough time to use its mes to protect all of those kidnapped foxes from the poisonous arrows before?!
The Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader really wanted to tear the amber-colored fox to pieces so badly right now, but he could only swallow his anger for now, because he still needed the amber-colored fox''s treasure-sensing type divine ability to sense the location of the City Lord''s precious treasures.
The Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader clenched his palm tighter to hold down his anger as they continued their way.
After carefully proceeding for another fifty meters or so without meeting any danger, they arrived at the stone stairs.
The Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader led them down the stone stairs, but suddenly, there were huge sharp des stabbed from above the stairs!
The Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader quickly raised the sword in his grasp to block one of the huge sharp des!
CLAAAAAANG~!
The amber-colored fox hastily led the kidnapped foxes to stick closer to the wall without saying anything, while the Eternal Joyous Sect''s people were busily blocking the huge sharp des from above!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
When no one realized it, an enormous steel ball covered with sharp spikes appeared all of a sudden and rolled down with lightning speed!
"AAAAAARRRGGGHHH~!" Some people from the Eternal Joyous Sect screamed in pain when they were run over mercilessly by the enormous steel ball covered with sharp spikes!
The sharp spikes on the enormous steel ball easily pierced through their bodies like paper and killed them almost instantly!
The eyes of Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader turned red in anger and resentment.
He roared out loud and threw an extremely powerful punch to the enormous steel ball!
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The enormous steel ball was shattered to pieces by the Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader, but the countless sharp shards from the enormous steel ball were scattered and shot in all directions!
Chapter 623 623: Sudden Predicament!
Chapter 623 Chapter 623: Sudden Predicament!
"You idiot~! What are you doing?!" The amber-colored fox shouted in anger.
But despite its anger, the amber-colored fox had already prepared, and it immediately unleashed its vermillion mes to protect the detained foxes from the sharp shards of the destroyed enormous steel ball.
The bright vermillion mes instantly formed a wall that melted away all of the sharp shards flying in their direction!
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader snorted coldly andined: "You ungrateful beast~! If you can use your skill to protect those useless burdens, why did you not use your ability to protect my people?!"
The amber-colored fox red back at the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader and replied in annoyance: "Selfish human, did you already forget our agreement? You should be the one who protects me and my people from any harm until we get out of this ce, while I will show you the way to find the City Lord''s treasures with my divine ability."
"Why do you want to ask me to protect you and your people now? Is your brain damaged or are you already stupid since birth? You did not even have any intention to share the City Lord''s treasures with me, but you want me to lead the way to the treasures, solve all the traps along the way, and protect your people from all dangers. Dream on~!" The amber-colored fox scolded the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader mercilessly.
This time, the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader had no more words to scold back the yellow-colored fox.
Yes, since the very beginning, the amber-colored fox cleverly never mentioned anything about helping the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people to solve any traps or fighting alongside them.
Its task was only to lead them to find the hidden treasure room.
The greedy Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader also never mentioned anything about sharing the City Lord''s hidden treasures with the amber-colored fox after they managed to find the hidden treasurester.
Unfortunately, the arrogance of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leaderpletely backfired this time.
Each of these Core Formation Stage Cultivators was the people he carefully cultivated over a long period of time.
It took not only a lot of time, but also a lot of cultivation resources to raise these people who were only loyal to himself to reach this level, and now, several of them died before they had even seen the City Lord''s treasures.
Losing these people was extremely painful for the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader like cutting his own flesh and bones.
But he could only grit his teeth, forcefully bear it, and continue on their way since he had already lost too much, and it was already toote for him to regret it or back down right now after going this far.
He tried tofort himself by thinking that he could cultivate more loyal people to reach the Core Formation Stage after he obtained the City Lord''s treasurester.
The amber-colored fox secretly sneered disdainfully in its heart as it stared at the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader with a pair of eyes filled with mockery.
''If this foolish human was not blinded by greed and temporarily pretended to be generous by discussing to share the treasures as long as I helped him on the way before, I might have no other choice but to help him out right now. What a fool?!'' The amber-colored fox thought scornfully in its mind.
Surprisingly, their next journey after going down the stairs was smooth.
But both the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader and amber-colored fox knew that the bigger dangers should have already waited for them as they got even closer to the treasure room.
There were only hundreds of creepy stone statues on the right and left sides of the long corridor, but they did not find any more traps on their way until they reached the ancient-looking bronze gate.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader acted much more cleverly this time, he red at one of the detained foxes and said with a threatening tone: "You there, go and open that gate for us! Quickly~!"
However, the amber-colored fox clearly would never let its key to win this treasure game die here, so it immediately stood in front of the detained fox and replied with a cold tone: "Stupid Human, stop ying around~! Do you think these weak malnutrition foxes can really push open that heavy bronze door? Please use your brain to think next time, not your tongue!"
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader stared angrily at the amber-colored fox with a pair of eyes filled with killing intent.
He secretly swore in his heart to slowly cut all of these weak foxes to pieces in front of the amber-colored fox''s eyes before he beheaded it after he obtained the City Lord''s treasurester.
Without any other choice, the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader could only order one of his subordinates to push open the ancient-looking bronze gate.
Of course, he also warned his subordinates to be very careful because there was a huge chance that there might be an extremely dangerous trap on the bronze gate.
The ck-clothed subordinate nodded and carefully approached closer to the ancient-looking bronze gate step by step.
He sighed in relief after he finally reached the ancient-looking bronze gate without triggering any trap, and then he tried to push open the gate.
Unfortunately, the ancient-looking bronze gate did not budge at all.
On the contrary, it made a loud cking sound instead!
"AAAAARRRGGHH~!" The ck-clothed subordinate from the Eternal Joyous Cult screamed out loud in pain as the extremely powerful electric current surged from the bronze gate toward his body.
The ck-clothed subordinate from the Eternal Joyous Cult turned into a lump of burnt meat in an instant.
Not only that, a cage with metal bars fell from the ceiling above and sealed the ancient-looking bronze gate making them could no longer reach it anymore.
The hundreds of creepy stone statues at the right and left sides of the long corridor began to move slowly and stepped forward while staring menacingly at them!
"Sh*t~! Prepare to fight~!" The expression of Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader immediately turned grim as he hastily shouted to warn his subordinates.
Even the amber-colored fox could no longer sit back and pretend to be a statue anymore since it needed to fight harder than anyone soon to protect the detained foxes from those stone statues.
For the first time, Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader and his subordinates along with the amber-colored fox were fighting together to defend themselves against the hundreds of creepy stone statues!
But those creepy stone statues were clearly not simple!
Every time they shattered any of those creepy stone statues to pieces, it would immediately recover back again to normal in the blink of an eye!
Although, the strength of those creepy stone statues was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage, but their number was too many, and they could not be killed or destroyed at all!
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader and the amber-colored fox quickly realized that they would soon be exhausted to death if they kept fighting against the hundreds of creepy stone statues continuously like this.
So, they had to find a way to forcefully break open the ancient-looking bronze gate and get away from these creepy stone statues as soon as possible!
.....
When the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader and the amber-colored fox were facing an unprecedented predicament, Tang Li Xue and Yaya yawnedzily in boredom at the same time.
"Ya yaya yaaa? (How long we should wait?)" Yaya asked impatiently while puffing her cheek cutely.
Tang Li Xue smiled gently while tapping on Yaya''s puffed cheek and replied: "Be more patient, Yaya~! We may just bezing around here, but those people should be facing life-threatening danger by now."
Tang Li Xue had already put her [Mapping Sense] tracker on the amber-colored fox, so she could easily monitor all of its movements from here.
Every time the amber-colored fox halted its movement on the map, it meant their group was currently facing danger or identally triggering the trap.
Tang Li Xue felt really d that she was not blinded by greed and stupidly followed their group to enter the hidden passage.
Anyway, she could easily track the location of the amber-colored fox even if it found another exit in the hidden passageter, so she only needed to patiently wait until those people found the City Lord''s treasures.
Of course, she could not do it alone since she surely could not defeat the amber-colored fox plus all of those strong people from the Eternal Joyous Cult by herself.
That was why she had already told Little Loki to call an extremely powerful reinforcement to face those people~!
Just when Tang Li Xue started to feel worried about Little Loki and wondered if Little Loki had met with any trouble or danger on the way, a ck sh jumped into her embrace all of a sudden!
"Little Loki~?! Thank goodness you are all right~!" Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and caressed Little Loki''s tiny soft furry body gently.
"Nyaaaw~! (All done~!)" Little Loki informed Tang Li Xue.
After feeding Little Loki with all of the mid-tier spirit stones in her spatial ring, Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki why it took so long to do it.
After hearing Little Loki''s exnation, Tang Li Xue finally understood the crucial problem.
Yes, Tang Li Xue nned to inform all of the guard captains that the great explosion was the Eternal Joyous Cult''s doing, and they had already infiltrated deep into the main residence of the City Lord''s Mansion by using the great explosion as a diversion.
But those guard captains clearly would not believe Tang Li Xue''s information easily, and they started to discuss it among themselves first.
Chapter 624 624: The Only Way Out!
Chapter 624 Chapter 624: The Only Way Out!
Some of the guard captains thought that Tang Li Xue''s information might even be a trap deliberately given by the Eternal Joyous Cult to divert their attention, so they suggested just ignoring it and focusing on what they were doing right now such as putting down the mes, calming down the chaotic situation, and so on.
When Tang Li Xue heard it from Little Loki, she really wanted to curse those guard captains as a bunch of brainless idiots.
They got such shocking information about the mastermind behind this incident, but they immediately decided it was a hoax information without even checking it.
Tang Li Xue instantly determined that the people who thought so should just stop working as guard captains right away since they were really no longer suitable to work as guards with their worrying IQ, and they should just start working as tofu makers so they could suicide with the tofu they made themselves.
Fortunately, there was still another guard captain who might have an IQ equal to H*lmes...
That guard captain took out the Tracing Compass and easily determined Tang Li Xue''s location which was currently in the main residence of City Lord Mansion.
He immediately deduced that Tang Li Xue might be the one who deliberately gave them this information to pit them against the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people, and she might want to take the benefit in their fight as the fisherman in the end.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips instantly twitched violently when she heard Little Loki tell her about that part.
''What the hell?! There is clearly something wrong with that guard captain, right?! Isn''t he too smart for a mere side character... err, I mean as a guard captain?! He should really just start working as a detective as soon as possible instead~! I am sure he will be famous quickly if he bes a detective!'' Tang Li Xue thought in her heart in annoyance.
But no matter what Tang Li Xue''s next n for the future was, those guard captains could no longer sit back and ignore her information if the true culprit of this tragic incident was really the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people.
Moreover, those Eternal Joyous Cult''s people had already infiltrated deep into the main residence of City Lord Mansion, and they were clearly up to no good!
There was no way that all of those guard captains would let the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people freely do whatever they wanted in this City Lord''s Mansion!
Those guard captains immediately decided who would storm into the main residence of the City Lord''s Mansion right now to find those Eternal Joyous Cult''s people and confront them head-on to catch all of them in one fell swoop.
Tang Li Xue''s smile bloomed beautifully after hearing the final decision of those guard captains while muttering victoriously: "That is right~! No matter what I had nned, you still must make your moves to catch the culprit behind the tragic incident~!"
Tang Li Xue stared at the hidden passage with a satisfied smile on her stunningly beautiful face and mumbled: "Now I can only hope those Eternal Joyous Cult''s people will get all the City Lord''s precious treasures smoothly, so I can dly ept it from themter."
.....
Contrary to Tang Li Xue''s expectations, the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people and the amber-colored fox were currently facing apletely unfavorable situation!
The people from the Eternal Joyous Cult started to fall one by one under the continuously fierce siege of hundreds of unbreakable stone statues!
The eyes of Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader turned crimson in extreme rage when he saw his subordinates get ughtered one by one.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader shouted out loud with a hoarse voice: "How dare mere stone statues like all of you block my way and kill my people?! Begone~!"
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader finally decided to get serious and summoned out his martial soul!
ROOOOAAAARRRR~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
A giant ck King Kong appeared behind the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader. It roared out loud in rage while beating its own chest wildly.
The giant ck King Kong turned into a ck light and merged into the ck gauntlet of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader!
[First Destion Fist - Prairie Fire]~!
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader threw a punch at the hundreds of unbreakable stone statues!
As his spiritual Qi spread around from his fist, all of those unbreakable stone statues were broken into the sand at once!
Even the amber-colored fox shuddered in horror when it saw the true might of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader, while the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people yelled vigorously to praise their leader''s power.
Unfortunately, their joy onlysted for a few moments before those unbreakable stone statues solidified back from the sand and reverted to normal again in only a few seconds!
The hundreds of unbreakable stone statues swiftly continued their fierce assault mercilessly!
This time, even the amber-colored fox could no longer protect all of the detained foxes alone from the fierce attacks of those hundreds of unbreakable stone statues!
Among the four detained foxes the amber-colored fox had rescued, one of them was identally killed by the unbreakable stone statues!
The amber-colored fox was extremely distressed and frustrated when it saw the detained fox it tried so hard to save and protect had got killed so easily by those unbreakable stone statues.
The amber-colored fox gnashed its fangs in anger and spurted out its vermillion mes toward the unbreakable stone statues.
Meanwhile, the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader had realized that these unbreakable stone statues really could not be destroyed, so he decided to attack the ancient-looking bronze gate which was currently covered with a cage with metal bars.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader threw a punch toward the ancient-looking bronze gate covered with a cage with metal bars!
[Second Destion Fist - Eternal Drought]~!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Surprisingly, the ancient-looking bronze gate along with the cage with metal bars still remained intact, but the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader was thrown off back for dozens of meters until he crashed against many unbreakable stone statues.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader immediately stood up again, but his appearance was a bit embarrassed.
He almost spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood, but he quickly gulped it down forcefully again to not get even more ashamed.
"Hey, stupid human~! This situation is not looking good for any of us~! How about you listen to my n first~!" The amber-colored fox approached the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader and said to him.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader frowned unpleasantly and replied coldly: "Say what is your n?!"
"My mes might be able to melt that gate, but it might take quite some time. I mustpletely focus on doing it and cannot be distracted at all. So... you know what I mean, right?" The amber-colored fox exined vaguely to the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader while kept attacking the stone statues with its mes to prevent them from getting closer to itself and the detained foxes.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader frowned even deeper and muttered in annoyance: "So, you want me to protect those useless burdensome foxes while you try to melt that bronze gate with your mes?!"
The amber-colored fox smiled at the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader and nodded while saying: "That is right~! How about it? If you agree, I will do it right away."
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader did not immediately agree. He pondered it carefully for a while before gnashing his teeth in aggravation and shouting with an unwilling tone: "All right~!"
"Okay, but if any one of them dies, I will hold you responsible!" The amber-colored fox replied with a cold tone.
"Humph~! You do not need to worry! How could I be a leader of the Eternal Joyous Cult if I am not a responsible person?!" The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader said as he red displeasingly at the amber-colored fox.
The amber-colored fox was still skeptical of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader, but it did not have any other choice than to trust him for now in order to get out of this predicament as soon as possible.
Both Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader and amber-colored fox did not waste any more time and immediately did their respective task!
Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader hastily ordered his subordinates to surround the detained foxes and protect them from the stone statues'' fierce attacks!
Meanwhile, the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader also fiercely swung both of his fists around to destroy all of the stone statues that approached the amber-colored fox!
The amber-colored fox spurted out its vermillion mes toward the ancient-looking bronze gate covered with a cage with metal bars.
Unfortunately, the ancient-looking bronze gate was actually much tougher than the amber-colored fox had expected, and its vermillion mes could barely affect the ancient-looking bronze gate.
At this rate, the amber-colored fox might need a few days or even a week topletely melt the ancient-looking bronze gate with its vermillion mes.
The amber-colored fox''s expression turned solemn in an instant.
Since it knew that it could not melt the entire ancient-looking bronze gate with its vermillion mes, it decided to cut the bronze gate instead!
The amber-colored fox carefully controlled its vermillion mes until it became apressed fire beam!
The amber-colored fox started to cut the entire ancient-looking bronze gate and the cage with metal bars using itspressed fire beam like a welding machine!
It slowly cut from the bottom left corner to the upper left corner and moved to the upper right corner.
The amber-colored fox''s energy consumption was too rapid, and to be honest, it started to regret its own n.
But it was already toote to regret it right now, so it could only try to cut the ancient-looking bronze gate along with the cage with metal bars as soon as possible to save more of its energy.
Chapter 625 Chapter 625: Anger and Dispute!
Chapter 625 Chapter 625: Anger and Dispute!
Meanwhile, the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader and his subordinates also felt an overwhelming pressure facing the relentless assaults from those unbreakable stone statues while protecting the remaining three detained foxes.
Previously, they already had a hard time facing those unbreakable stone statues without protecting anyone, and several people even lost their lives under the hands of those unbreakable stone statues.
Right now, the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader and his subordinates must double their effort to protect those three detained foxes.
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Some of Eternal Joyous Cult''s people got injured again one by one by those unbreakable stone statues!
The other unbreakable stone statues quickly took the chance when those several Eternal Joyous Cult''s people fell down to finish them off!
Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader gritted his teeth in rage and hatred as his eyes turned redder in extreme madness.
Almost half of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people have been killed by these unbreakable stone statues so far, and the number of their victims has continued to increase even now!
"These damned annoying insolent puppets~! Begone~!" Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader shouted in anger as he swung both of his fists forward.
[Third Destion Fist - River and Mountain Disintegration]~!
The spiritual Qi shot out from both of Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader''s fists distorting the surrounding scenery in that instant!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Most of the unbreakable stone statues in front of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader were blown away and disintegrated into the sand!
It could easily be seen how powerful the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader was from this extremely powerful and destructive fist attack!
Even Tang Li Xue in her fox form might not be able to defend against this fist attack from the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader even if she used all of her defensive abilities... well, except for [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s protection for three deadly blows and its invulnerable active skill.
Unfortunately, even the extremely powerful fist attack from Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader waspletely useless against those unbreakable stone statues.
Even though so many of those unbreakable stone statues disintegrated into sand by the extremely powerful fist attack from Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader, it only took a few seconds longer for them to recover back to usual.
Those newly restored unbreakable stone statues did not know any fear or pain, and they quickly continued their relentless assault against the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader and his subordinates!
Since the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader could not kill or destroy any of these unbreakable stone statues, he could only vent his anger andin harshly to the amber-colored fox instead.
"How much longer will it take for you to melt down that gate?! Don''t tell me that you did it slower on purpose to wear down me and my people?!" The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader asked the amber-colored fox with an impolite tone.
The amber-colored foxpletely put all of its focus on cutting down the ancient-looking bronze gate with its me beam faster, so it could not reply to the question from the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader.
But it made the already irritable Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader be much angrier!
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader shouted coldly at the amber-colored fox with an angry expression filled with killing intent: "You damned scheming fox~! From now on, I will kill one of these fox girls for every minute you waste! I want to see how much longer you will stall!"
The amber-colored fox became extremely angry when it heard the irritating provoking words from the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader.
It really wanted to cripple this bast*rd and forced him to kowtow to itself, then apologize with tears on his arrogant face!
The amber-colored fox suppressed its extreme rage and focused on cutting the bronze gate as soon as possible whileforting itself that it would make the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader pay for his arrogance soon after they got out of this ce.
It did not take long for one minute to pass...
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader sneered coldly as his expression was filled with killing intent and said: "The time is up~!"
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader approached one of the detained fox girls and grabbed her neck with one hand!
When the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader exerted strength on his hand to crush the neck of that detained fox girl, the amber-colored fox finally could not stay calm and spit out a vermillion me bolt toward the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader!
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader easily blocked the amber-colored fox''s vermillion me bolt attack with his other hand.
"Get your dirty hand off her~! I already cut that bronze gate." The amber-colored fox muttered coldly to the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader sneered coldly as he loosened his hand on the detained fox girl''s neck and replied: "Good Job~! If you did it faster, this vixen would not need to suffer like this."
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader walked toward the ancient-looking bronze gate covered with a cage with metal bars and kicked it forcefully!
BAAAAAAANNGG~!
Different from before, the ancient-looking bronze gate covered with a cage with metal bars fell down heavily onto the floor in one kick.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader delightfully shouted to his subordinates: "Come on, quickly run this way, guys~!"
The amber-colored fox had already led the three detained foxes as soon as possible to pass through the broken bronze gate.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader felt annoyed by the amber-colored fox''s movement, but he did not say anything anymore.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader swung his fist rapidly toward the unbreakable stone statues again to help his subordinates.
The approaching unbreakable stone statues were sted away by the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader, so it gave his own subordinates enough time to run toward the broken bronze gate and pass through it.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader was thest one who ran passed the broken bronze gate.
Thankfully, those unbreakable stone statues did not seem to be able to pass through the broken bronze gate like them.
The amber-colored fox, the three detained foxes, and the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people sighed in relief after they saw those stone statues no longer chasing after them from behind after they ran past the broken bronze gate.
"Let''s go~! We are almost there, but do not let your guard down yet~!" The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader warned his subordinates.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader thought that they were still some distance away from the hidden treasure room, but who knew after walking to the end of the corridor, he found out that they were actually already inside the hidden treasure room?!
All of them were in awe as they stepped into a bright huge warehouse.
There was a hill of mid-tier spirit stones piled on the right side of the room.
On the left side, there were several bookshelves containing profound cultivation techniques, powerful martial arts and spells, secret techniques, experience notes of other cultivators, and so on.
At the center of the room, there were dozens of jade boxes that might contain precious treasures such as weapons and armors, cultivation resources such as precious herbs and fruits, cultivation pills, powerful talismans, and so on.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader woke up from his awe andughed madly in joy: "AHAHAHAHAHA~! Mine~! All of these are mine~! With all of these cultivation resources, I can certainly break through to Nascent Soul Stage easily and make the Eternal Joyous Cult much stronger than ever!"
Even the amber-colored fox stared at all of these cultivation resources with thick greed in its eyes.
Even though the amber-colored fox could not use most of these human cultivation resources, but it certainly could exchange them for beast cultivation resourcester after this Foxes Hunting Festival was over.
''No, this is not the time yet. I should be more patient. Bear it until we get out from here.'' The amber-colored fox took a deep breath to calm down its turbulent mood.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader picked the items in the treasure room one by one in a delighted mood, while his subordinates carefully observed the amber-colored fox''s every movement to prevent it fromunching a sneak attack on their leader and robbing the treasure from them.
The amber-colored fox ignored those people and secretly took a nce at the spatial ring on the Eternal Joyous Cult leader''s finger.
Yes, that spatial ring was one of the amber-colored fox''s purposes for cooperating with these arrogant egoistic humans.
The amber-colored fox could not use the spatial ring as a beast, and it also could not bring its space pouch into this Foxes Hunting Festival, so it could only rely on these arrogant egoistic humans to collect all of those precious treasures into their spatial ring.
Then the amber-colored fox only needed to secretly steal or forcefully rob their spatial ring at thest moment right before it won this treasure gameter!
At this time, the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader really wanted to check his bountiful harvest carefully and admired them slowly one by one, but he knew that they did not have much more time since the City Lord would certainlye back soon, so he decided to put all the contents in this hidden treasure room into his spatial ring.
Then the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader hastily led the rest of his subordinates and the amber-colored fox out of the hidden treasure room.
They must face those hundreds of unbreakable stone statues in front of the broken bronze gate again after getting out of the hidden treasure room, but the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader voluntarily opened the way back for all of them by using his strength to st away those stone statues with his fists.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue had already realized the movement of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people by keeping an eye on the [Mapping Sense] tracker she put on the amber-colored fox.
"All right, it seems they already got all of the treasures inside that hidden treasure room~! It is time for us to watch the most awaited peak showdown~!" Tang Li Xue giggled mischievously while patting Little Loki and Yaya''s head gently
Chapter 626: Peak Showdown!
Chapter 626: Peak Showdown!
Tang Li Xue actually did not really put much hope in the treasures stored inside that hidden treasure room because usually most of the cultivators would put their most precious and important treasures in their spatial ring.
Well, the safest ce to store your own treasures should be something you always carry around with you everywhere, right? at least, the current Tang Li Xue thought so...
But Tang Li Xue was actually quite wrong about this since she stillcked a lot of knowledge aboutmon sense in this Cultivation World.
Something like spatial rings and space pouches were very easy to be stolen or snatched by the enemies in the middle of the fierce battle.
If that really happened and they really put all of their treasures in their spatial rings or space pouches, did that mean those cultivators bepletely penniless?!
That was the reason why many cultivators actually did not put all of their treasures in their spatial rings or space pouches but instead put around half of them in some hidden ce like this hidden treasure room or their closed cultivation cave, cultivators with higher cultivation might even create secret realms to store their treasures.
However, it was not the right time for Tang Li Xue to worry about that because the guard army along with more than a dozen guard captains had alreadye to this main residence, and they had already started to inspect every room one by one!
Tang Li Xue''s sharp sense of hearing enhanced by her [Extrasensory Perception] could faintly hear that they were getting closer and closer here.
It might not take long for them to check this luxurious bedroom located at the center of the main residence and find the currently opened hidden passage here!
Tang Li Xue checked the [Mapping Sense] tracker she put on the amber-colored fox and found that the amber-colored fox and the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people had also almost gotten out of the hidden passage!
Tang Li Xue hastily brought Little Loki and Yaya to hide in the room beside the luxurious bedroom where the hidden passage was located.
Just like Tang Li Xue had predicted, when the amber-colored fox and the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people got out of the hidden passage, they actually met head-on with many guards and their more than a dozen guard captains!
The expression of the guard captains instantly distorted in anger and hatred when they saw the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people in ck clothes, then shouted angrily at them: "You brazen thieves from Eternal Joyous Cult~! How dare you make a great mess by sneaking into City Lord''s Mansion and stealing our City Lord''s belongings~!"
The expression of the amber-colored fox and the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people immediately turned solemn and cold. They did not reply to the guard captain''s insults andunched attacks toward them all of a sudden!
BBOOOOOOOMMM~!
The fierce head-on sh between Core Formations Stage cultivators like Eternal Joyous Cult''s people and more than a dozen guard captains was not something the ordinary guards could handle and many of them got killed by the violent shockwave from their attacks!
"Hahaha, is this the strength of City Lord''s guards?! So weak~!" One of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people mocked while sneering with a disdainful expression.
The expression of guard captains instantly became cold, and they hastily took out their spirit treasures from their spatial rings!
It waspletely different from when they were facing Tang Li Xue previously, they only used [Demon Sealing Ropes] to try to catch her at that time, but this time, they took out flying swords at Spirit Treasure level!
Not only that, those guard captains did not hesitate to summon out their martial souls to merge with their spirit treasure flying swords!
[Two-headed Jade Snake], [Steelback Giant Bear], [Golden Winged Eagle], [Sword Grass], [me Spitting Mushroom], and so on.
All kinds of martial souls were summoned out by them all at once!
"First Tian Xuan Sword Formation, [Sealing Life Formation]~!" One of the guard captains shouted, and more than a dozen spirit treasure flying swords instantly arranged neatly in a mysterious pattern formation.
It was clear that these guard captains nned to ughter all of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people without any mercy!
Eternal Joyous Cult''s people felt enormous pressure from the guard captains all of a sudden, and they also summoned out their respective martial souls and merged them with their weapons!
More than a dozen spirit treasure flying swords shed in unison toward the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Most of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people barely managed to block the attack from the spirit treasure flying swords, but some of them still got injured.
But the guard captains did not n to stop and controlled their spirit treasure flying swords to attack the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people again and again!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki secretly watched their battle from the next room right beside them in excitement by making holes in the wall.
"Woah~! Those flying swords are so fast and sharp~! If they used those flying swords on us before, we might have already been filled with holes right now~!" Tang Li Xuemented.
"Nya Mew Nyao~! (Yes, those flying swords look really delicious~!)" Little Loki added.
"Yaya ya yayaya yaaa~! (Yes, but my Compressed Wind Swords are surely faster and sharper than them~!)" Yaya told her opinion.
Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader saw that their situation was getting worse as his own subordinates got pressured by those guard captains and got injured more and more, so he decided to unleash his [Destion Fist] toward the guard captains!
[First Destion Fist - Prairie Fire]~!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
As the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader threw a punch toward more than a dozen guard captains, their spirit treasure flying swords got repelled and blown away by the destructive spiritual Qi shot out by the Eternal Joyous Cult leader''s fist!
All of the dozen guard captains took a few steps back, and fresh blood flowed out from their noses and mouths.
They wiped the fresh blood on their face with their sleeve as their expression became even more fiercer.
"Second Tian Xuan Sword Formation, [Earth Breaking Formation]~!" One of the guard captains shouted out loud.
The movement of spirit treasure flying swords changedpletely as they flew encircling the guard captains and Eternal Joyous Cult''s people forming an enormous Yin and Yang pattern!
Even the expression of Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader instantly changed to panic when he faintly sensed the profound hidden killing intent in this sword formation!
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader quickly unleashed an even more powerful fist attack to break the sword formation!
[Second Destion Fist - Eternal Drought]~!
The extremely violent spiritual Qi shot out from the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader''s fist!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
But surprisingly, the Eternal Joyous Cult leader''s fist attack actually failed to break the sword formation this time!
On the contrary, the extremely violent spiritual Qi rebounded back and injured himself and his own subordinates!
Even the amber-colored fox and the three detained foxes under its protection were not spared. All of them also got injured by the rebounded violent spiritual Qi.
Tang Li Xue''s expression also changed from rxed to worried when she saw the three detained foxes get injured.
"It would be really bad if those foxes identally died in their battle... It seems I must make some changes to my n~!" Tang Li Xue murmured while thinking deeply.
Currently, Tang Li Xue nned to wait for both sides to fight to the death, and finally, she only needed to make a finishing touch to take both those detained foxes and the City Lord''s treasures from themter.
However, those detained foxes clearly could not hold on anymore!
Tang Li Xue had already saved two foxes, while the amber-colored fox had saved three foxes.
If all of these detained foxes died here, the amber-colored fox would almost certainly be the winner of this treasure game in the end!
Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation as she muttered to Yaya and Little Loki: "Let''s go, Yaya, Little Loki~! We have to take those detained foxes away from there quickly before they die~!"
Since she needed extreme speed to save those detained foxes as soon as possible from that deadly battlefield, Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to change back from her human form to her fox form.
She also decided to enter [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya at this time.
Yaya also turned into a sh of green light and merged into Tang Li Xue''s body.
*Ding!
[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]
Tang Li Xue used Yaya''s buff on herself to increase her speed even further.
*Ding!
[Wind Guardian Blessing] activated! (Increase overall speed by 50% and add auto-dodge effect. Duration: 10 seconds.)
Using both [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and [Breezing Step] at once, Tang Li Xue''s speed was so fast that her silver furry figure turned into a silver sh as she sped off toward the luxurious room right beside the room she located!
Right at this time, the battle situation had already shiftedpletely toward the City Lord''s guard captains.
The fierce sword formation of the guard captains not only managed to injure the Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader, but they also managed to y some of his subordinates!
All of the guard captains sneered at the Eternal Joyous Sect''s people with disdain and mockery.
The expression of Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader turned ugly in extreme rage and hatred as he shouted in anger: "Don''t get too cocky, you damn bast*rds~! Do you think you already win?!"
Eternal Joyous Sect''s leader threw both of his fists toward the guard captains with all of his strength!
[Third Destion Fist - River and Mountain Disintegration]~!
The spiritual Qi shot out from both of the Eternal Joyous Cult leader''s fists distorting the surrounding scenery in an instant!
Tang Li Xue and Little Loki had already swiftly entered the luxurious room to take away those detained foxes from this dangerous battlefield, but Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] instantly sensed an extreme danger spreading in this entire luxurious room!
Chapter 627: [Divine Possession] VS [Vermillion Burst Mode]!
Chapter 627: [Divine Possession] VS [Vermillion Burst Mode]!
"Damn it~! Little Loki, quickly save one~!" Tang Li Xue hastily ordered Little Loki with her telepathy.
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The Eternal Joyous Cult leader''s [Third Destion Fist - River and Mountain Disintegration] collided violently against the guard captains'' [Earth Breaking Sword Formation]!
The fierce rolling shockwave blew up the entire luxurious room along with the other nearby rooms!
Even the sturdy entrance of the hidden passage had copsed more than a third because of their violent collision!
All of the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people and most of the guard captains were blown away for dozens of meters by the fierce rolling shockwave.
They crashed onto several walls and fell onto the floor, then spurted a few mouthfuls of blood from their mouths.
They were heavily injured and almost lost their consciousness in that instant.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader was also not spared, he fell weakly on his knee and coughed out several mouthfuls of blood from his mouth.
As for the three detained foxes, all of them surprisingly survived the fierce shockwave created by the violent collision.
A few milliseconds before the violent collision happened, the amber-colored fox hastily took away one detained fox, while Tang Li Xue and Little Loki each swiftly took away one detained fox.
So, all three detained foxes were brought out from the luxurious room by the three of them before the violent collision happened, and the three detained foxes only got lightly injured because they were already some distance away from the violent rolling shockwave.
The amber-colored fox red vigntly at both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki and said with a cold tone: "Thank you for your help in saving them, but these foxes are mine~! Return them back to me~!"
Tang Li Xue sneered at the amber-colored fox and replied with a mocking tone: "Your foxes? Really? Why don''t I see your name written on them?! Are you their mom, dad, grandma, or grandpa?! No, right? How can you say they are yours?!"
The amber-colored fox gnashed its teeth in anger at Tang Li Xue''s shameless words, and it charged toward Tang Li Xue while shouting in anger: "Die, you scoundrel~!"
"Little Loki, take this chance to escort the three detained foxes out of this ce! You do not need to wait for me and just directly bring all of those detained foxes out from the city gate by yourself!" Tang Li Xue told Little Loki with her telepathy as she faced the amber-colored fox head-on.
There were still too many dangers if they kept wasting their time here.
The Eternal Joyous Cult Leader was still alive. Even though he had already been injured quite heavily right now, but that did not rule out the possibility that he might still pose some threat to them.
Those guard captains also have a lot of unpredictable methods, so they might have some kind of treasure or formation to imprison or seal them.
Furthermore, the City Lord with Nascent Soul Stage cultivation level who possesses the biggest threat to them coulde back at any time!
So, Tang Li Xue''s current decision to let Little Loki escort the three detained foxes out of this city as soon as possible should be the best decision in her opinion.
The amber-colored fox''s furry figure was d in vermillion mes as it charged toward Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue easily evaded it using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step].
Then she unleashed several [Compressed Wind des] to counterattack the amber-colored fox!
Unfortunately, the amber-colored fox''s vermilion mes instantly engulfed several [Compressed Wind des] before they could touch the amber-colored fox''s body.
Little Loki hesitated for a few moments, but it still decided to follow Tang Li Xue''s n and hastily escorted the two detained foxes that they had just saved plus one detained fox that the amber-colored fox saved.
The amber-colored fox became even angrier when it saw Little Loki also took away the fox girl it just saved.
The amber-colored fox turned around and changed its attacking target to Little Loki, but Tang Li Xue reacted even faster!
She immediatelyunched a skill to hinder the amber-colored fox''s movement before it could chase after Little Loki.
[Tempest Prison]~!
The amber-colored fox was imprisoned in the midst of the powerful swirling wind!
But it did not take long before the powerful swirling wind changed its color to vermillion as the amber-colored fox unleashed its vermilion mes to break the powerful swirling wind!
BOOOOOOOMMM~!
When the violent swirling wind was exploded by the amber-colored fox''s vermillion mes, Tang Li Xue had alreadyunched another attack toward the amber-colored fox!
[Vacuum sh]~!
The amber-colored fox hastily created a me wall to block Tang Li Xue''s [Vacuum sh], but the [Vacuum sh] cut apart the me wall and shed at the amber-colored fox!
PUUFFF~!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s [Vacuum sh] had weakened a lot by the me wall, so it could not cut the amber-colored fox in two, but at least, it managed to leave a gaping deep wound on its shoulder.
The amber-colored fox''s expression turned more solemn and colder as it realized how powerful Tang Li Xue was, and it might not be able to defeat Tang Li Xue if it did not go all out.
The vermillion mes that shrouded the amber-colored fox were burning fiercer and bigger until the amber-colored fox''s figure seemed to mergepletely with the vermillion mes.
[Vermillion Burst Mode]~!
Yes, this was the amber-colored fox''s ultimate skill that it kept hidden until now, and it nned to use this to fight against the Eternal Joyous Cultter.
But who knew that its n could not keep up with the change, and it was forced to use it now to fight against Tang Li Xue?!
The current amber-colored fox... No, it should be called vermillion me fox right now to be more exact since it has be the me beast just like the Phoenix of Pride.
Tang Li Xue could also sense terrifying pressureing from the current vermillion me fox with her [Extrasensory Perception], and her expression became even more solemn.
If the strength of the previous amber-colored fox was only ten, then the current amber-colored fox in its [Vermillion Burst Mode] was definitely more than a hundred.
The vermillion me fox instantly transformed into a huge fireball and flew toward Tang Li Xue with breakneck speed!
Tang Li Xue immediately used [Hurricane Barrier] to defend against it!
She still felt that it was not enough, so she erected a solid stone wall with [Mother Earth''s Gift] and created a transparent barrier with her [Energy Maniption]!
With these threeyers of defense, Tang Li Xue believed that it should be more than enough to block the vermillion me fox''s attack!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Out of Tang Li Xue''s expectations, the huge fireball exploded so greatly that it destroyed the [Hurricane Barrier] almost instantly, even the solid stone wall and the transparent barrier could not hold it and were blown out in the blink of an eye.
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (2/3)]
Tang Li Xue was thrown off dozens of meters because of the explosion shockwave, but she was uninjured, except for some of her shiny smooth silver furs got burned, since she was protected by [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection.
Tang Li Xue slowly stood up in shock and disbelief while muttering: "Damn it~! What the hell is that?! It actually almost killed me?!"
The power of that explosion was not at all weaker than the previous attack from the Eternal Joyous Cult leader, [Third Destion Fist - River and Mountain Disintegration]!
On the contrary, the vermillion me fox''s attack should be a lot superiorpared to the Eternal Joyous Cult leader''s attack since it has an extremely high heat and burning effect!
Tang Li Xue silentlyined in her heart: ''Isn''t the Earthly Desire Spirit the most vicious and powerful?! Why the hell do I feel like this amber-colored fox''s vermillion me is more powerful than my me of Pride?!''
If the Phoenix of Pride was already awake, it would probably scold Tang Li Xue back for being the one who was useless.
Which of the [Purple Destruction Wave] and [Supernova Explosion Bomb] are weaker than the vermillion me ball attack?! Both of them are clearly much more powerful than thetter, right?!
It was you who could not use my power properly, but you put the me on me instead?!
Meanwhile, the vermillion me fox was also extremely surprised when it saw that Tang Li Xue was still alive, and she even remained uninjured after receiving its vermillion me ball attack head-on!
Just so you know, this [Vermillion Burst Mode] and the vermillion me ball attack had already consumed a lot of its energy!
At first, the vermillion me fox nned to finish off Tang Li Xue in one attack then took the three detained foxes back before preparing to face the Eternal Joyous Cult Leader to take his spatial ring.
But it was never expected that Tang Li Xue could block its powerful attack in [Vermillion Burst Mode].
The vermillion me fox raised its evaluation of Tang Li Xue''s strength to a higher level, and it did not dare to carelessly use its huge vermillion me ball attack again.
Tang Li Xue no longer dared to fight head-on against the vermillion me fox, so she immediately decided to increase her speed even further in order to dodge every attack from the vermillion me fox.
[Wings of Freedom] plus [Wind Guardian Blessing] activated~!
"I have no more time to y around with you, so I will finish this quickly~!" Tang Li Xue muttered to the vermillion me fox as her silver furry figure was wrapped in the violent wind and split into many identical clones.
[Multiple Wind Clones] plus [Water Mirage]~!
Chapter 628: Tang Li Xues Counterattack!
Chapter 628: Tang Li Xue''s Counterattack!
Tang Li Xue''s hundred identical clones spread out and started to charge at the vermillion me fox from all directions!
The vermillion me fox carefully stared at Tang Li Xue''s hundreds of clones, but it still could not distinguish which one was the real Tang Li Xue.
So, it decided to just attack all the approaching Tang Li Xue''s clones indiscriminately with its vermillion mes!
As the vermillion me fox spun its body and swung its three tails, its vermillion mes swept all the approaching Tang Li Xue''s clones in one move!
However, the real Tang Li Xue quickly took this opportunity to suddenly appear behind the vermillion me fox at extremely high speed andunch a sudden attack on the vermillion me fox!
[Tiger Roaring sh]~!
An imposing image of a fierce White Tiger appeared behind Tang Li Xue, and the fierce White Tiger let out a deafening angry roar!
ROOOOOAAAARRR~!
Tang Li Xue even enhanced the power of [Tiger Roaring sh] with [Sharp Edge Power] and [Shockwave Impact] improving the destructive attack force to a terrifying level!
The White Tiger''s deafening angry roar stunned the vermillion me fox, but only for around half a second. It was because the vermillion me fox in its [Vermillion Burst Mode] was extremely powerful, and [Tiger Roaring sh]''s sonic attack could only affect it a bit.
When the fierce White Tiger''s w almost reached the vermillion me fox''s head, the vermillion me fox unleashed its power and transformed into a huge fireball again!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s improved [Tiger Roaring sh] shed head-on against the vermillion me fox in the huge fireball form, creating a terrible explosion that even affected the fighting guard captains against the Eternal Joyous Cult''s people!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (1/3)]
Tang Li Xue was thrown away more than a hundred meters and crashed onto several walls before she stopped and fell onto the ground.
[Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection might protect Tang Li Xue from the huge fireball and great explosion, but she was still injured by the shockwave and collision against several walls.
Tang Li Xue slowly got up and coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood.
"Damn it~! This bast*rd is really crazy~! How dare it collide head-on against my improved [Tiger Roaring sh]?!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she stared at the location of the great explosion.
Tang Li Xue thought the vermillion me fox should be injured pretty heavily right now since it collided directly with her improved [Tiger Roaring sh].
But out of Tang Li Xue''s expectations, the vermillion me fox walked out from the building ruins filled with me and smokepletely intact without any sign of injuries.
The vermillion me fox sneered scornfully at Tang Li Xue''s embarrassed appearance with scorched skin and furs, then mocked her: "Are you all right? You look like you are about to die before I can do anything to you~!"
Even though her scorched skin and furs were restored to normal in only a few breaths under the healing effect of [High-Speed Regeneration], but it still made her look ugly for a while.
Tang Li Xue put on a rxed act and replied with a casual tone: "Of course, I am okay~! Look at me~! Do I really look like someone about to die? I think your eyes have a fatal problem. Should I help you gouge them out now?"
Staring at the uninjured vermillion me fox, Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and pondered for a few moments, then she realized that the vermillion me fox was actually in a me body form, just like the previous [Lightning Form] divine ability.
It made sense that her enhanced [Tiger Roaring sh] or any physical attack including the previous great explosion could not hurt it while it was in this [Vermillion Burst Mode].
But it did not mean Tang Li Xue had no more ways to fight against this vermillion me fox!
''Yaya''s wind elemental attacks should still be able to work against it, but wind elemental is weak against fire elemental, so the effect on it is not much.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Tang Li Xue smiled coldly as she thought: ''However, me elemental is weak against water elemental~! Ehehehe... the perfect opponent for this bast*rd is, of course, my own martial soul~! Come out, [Golden Winged Serpent]~!''
The [Golden Winged Serpent] flew out from Tang Li Xue''s Dantian and instantly merged with her.
The [Golden Winged Serpent] became a pair of golden gauntlets wrapped on Tang Li Xue''s front paws!
Without any hesitation, Tang Li Xue immediately used one of her [Golden Winged Serpent]''s signature skills...
[Summon Rain]~!
The pitter-patter sound of dripping rain began to spread on the entire City Lord''s Mansion as fine dense rain fell from the skies.
"What~? Rain?!" The vermillion me fox murmured with a strange tone while staring at the sky in disbelief.
CCRRSSS~!
The heavy rain damped the surrounding mes that were currently burning some buildings, and it might not take long for them to bepletely extinguished.
Meanwhile, the rainwater made a loud sizzling sound as it touched the vermillion me fox''s body.
The rainwater was evaporated almost instantly, but it also weakened the vermilion mes on the vermillion me fox''s body to some extent.
It did not take long for the vermillion me fox to understand that Tang Li Xue was the one who summoned this heavy rain.
The vermillion me fox did not take the heavy rain summoned by Tang Li Xue seriously as it said with a tone filled with disdain: "Such a futile effort~! Do you really think this rain can put out my mes?!"
"No, this rain may not be enough for that~! But how about this one?!" Tang Li Xue sneered as she unleashed another signature skill from her [Golden Winged Serpent].
[Tidal Wave]~!
(Tidal Wave: Calls all water within a radius of several dozen miles as a tidal wave to flood the entire area around the user with water.)
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The floor under their feet suddenly shook greatly as a huge tidal wave came toward them!
"What the hell is..." The vermillion me fox shouted in astonishment, but before it could finish its words, its me body had already run over by the huge tidal wave.
BWOOOOOSSHH~!
The huge tidal wave was like the enormous mouth of a beast as it swallowed the vermillion me fox in one gulp.
Even the fierce vermillion mes on its body could not evaporate all the water like the previous rainwater!
"Is itfortable to take a bath like that? Not yet? Not enough? Then I will add something more fun for you~!" Tang Li Xue said to the vermillion me fox while flying with [Wings of Freedom] buff.
[Cyclone Storm]~!
When the vermillion me fox still got tossed around by the huge tidal wave, it instantly got trapped in the middle of an enormous pir of hurricane condensed from countless dancing sharp wind des!
Previously, the vermillion me fox could still get out of Tang Li Xue''s [Tempest Prison] by using its vermillion mes to explode it.
But right now, the vermillion me fox could no longer use its me to forcefully explode the [Cyclone Storm] since its mes had already weakened a lot by the tidal wave and flood.
The countless dancing sharp wind des were shredding the vermillion me fox''s body again and again mercilessly!
Normally, its me body would restore back to usual after getting shed, but at this moment, its vermillion mes were getting weaker and weaker under the dual attacking effect of water and wind.
The victory was already within Tang Li Xue''s sight, and she might only need to unleash one or two more moves to finish off the vermillion me fox.
Just when Tang Li Xue prepared topletely eliminate the vermillion me fox, something Tang Li Xue did not expect happened!
BBOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s [Cyclone Storm] suddenly burst, and the vermillion me fox trapped inside it got released!
The vermillion me fox fell from the height onto the flooded ground.
"Yo~! Long time no see, little fox~! You look really awful right now~! It seems that you need some help~!" The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader sneered while saying with a mocking tone.
The vermillion me fox''s [Vermillion Burst Mode] had already been canceled right now, and its form went back to the previous amber-colored fox.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s delightful expression changed into a solemn one.
She already faced a lot of trouble when she was trying to defeat the amber-colored fox alone before, but right now, the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader might also join hands with the amber-colored fox to fight against her.
''Err, this... is clearly not looking good... I have already consumed a lot of energy to fight against that amber-colored fox before, and now, I must face the two of them at once?! Maybe I really should just run away from them right now...'' Tang Li Xue pondered her next n carefully.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue really did not need to fight or defeat these two, but if she wanted to snatch the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader spatial ring that contained the City Lord''s treasures, then she might really need to defeat these two first.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue still has a lot of concerns about the rules of this treasure game.
If Little Loki sessfully escorted the three detained foxes out of this city, then she would have already saved five detained foxes so far.
But what if the amber-colored fox could also save five detained foxes tooter?!
Who would be the true winner of this treasure game in the end?!
Therefore, Tang Li Xue decided that she must kill this amber-colored fox before that happened!
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not know that the rest of the detained foxes had already died. If she knew it, she might take a safer option and just choose to run away from here right now.
Chapter 629 629: Last Struggle!
Chapter 629 Chapter 629: Last Struggle!
''The current situation might not be as bad as I thought. That old man from Eternal Joyous Cult should have already been quite exhausted after defeating those guard captains. That amber-colored fox should also be the same. My winning chance against the two of them should be quite high.'' Tang Li Xue concluded calmly in her mind.
In fact, Tang Li Xue only needed to steal the spatial ring containing the City Lord''s treasures from the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader at thest moment before Little Loki escorted the three detained foxes out of this Mountain Fortress City.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue still thought that she needed to save the rest of the detained foxes before this treasure game could end, so she decided to kill these two and take away the spatial ring after that.
While Tang Li Xue stared at the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader vigntly, the amber-colored fox had already slowly stood up again.
The amber-colored fox red resentfully at the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader, but it was toozy to scold him back and only said with a cold tone: "You promise to protect me and escort me and the three of my people out from this city safely. But look at what happens right now?! And you even still have the nerve to mock me?!"
Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader did not take the amber-colored fox''s words seriously and replied with a yful tone instead: "Hey, I have already taken down all of the City Lord''s guards alone without your help, okay~?! This one is also a fox, so I thought it was also one of your people~! In short, this should not be my problem, but it is yours~!"
"Forget it! I am toozy to quarrel with you right now. Just help me defeat this one, and we will be even from now on." The amber-colored fox muttered while staring at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with killing intent.
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader maintained his smile and nodded: "No problem! Then, let''s do it as quickly as possible since we do not have much time left!"
In those few seconds of conversation between those two, all of Tang Li Xue''s wounds had alreadypletely healed with her [High-Speed Regeneration], and she even recovered a little bit of her energy.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and made them hold apressed greatsword created with her [Energy Maniption].
Tang Li Xue also imbued thepressed greatsword with [Sharp Edge Power] and Yaya''spressed wind sword power.
Both the amber-colored fox and the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader charged swiftly toward Tang Li Xue at the same time!
The amber-colored fox merged with its vermillion mes as it activated its [Vermillion Burst Mode] once again and transformed into a vermillion me fox!
Tang Li Xue controlled the [Sun Dragon ws] holding thepressed greatsword to face the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader, while Tang Li Xue herself dashed toward the vermillion me fox!
When Tang Li Xue was already close enough to the vermillion me fox, she immediatelyunched her water skill toward it!
[Water Cannon st]~!
BOOOOOOOOOM~!!!
The highlypressed water cannon sprayed toward the vermillion me fox making a loud sizzling sound!
The surrounding floodwater around the vermillion me fox was evaporating very quickly, but the highlypressed water cannon managed to suppress the vermillion me fox!
Meanwhile, the [Sun Dragon ws] swung thepressed greatsword at the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader creating a powerful violent [Whirlwind Vacuum Wave]!
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader nned to attack Tang Li Xue too, but he was forced to defend himself against the powerful violent [Whirlwind Vacuum Wave] instead!
[First Destion Fist - Prairie Fire]~!
The Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader threw a punch to repel the violent [Whirlwind Vacuum Wave]!
BAAAAAAAANGG~!
The Eternal Joyous Cult leader''s fist attack and the violent [Whirlwind Vacuum Wave] canceled against each other, but the Eternal Joyous Cult leader took a few steps back.
The [Sun Dragon ws] took this chance tounch another attack toward the Eternal Joyous Cult leader!
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Rapid Quick shes!
The Eternal Joyous Cult leader gnashed his teeth in annoyance, but he did not have any other choice than to raise both of his hands and try to parry the [Sun Dragon ws]''s [Rapid Quick shes] with his metal gloves.
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
While the [Sun Dragon ws] was fighting fiercely against the Eternal Joyous Cult leader, the vermillion me fox had already started its counterattack against Tang Li Xue in extreme rage.
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Tang Li Xue was thrown off dozens of meters by the explosion!
Fortunately, the vermillion mes burning on her body were quickly extinguished after she fell and drowned in the floodwater.
Tang Li Xue hastily jumped out of the water while spitting out the dirty floodwater that identally got into her mouth.
Tang Li Xue red viciously at the vermillion me fox, but the vermillion me fox had already pounced at Tang Li Xue once again!
The vermillion me fox opened its mouth and shot several explosive firebolts toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue hastily used [Water Control] to createpressed water bullets and shot them at several explosive firebolts!
POOFF~! POOFF~! POOFF~! POOFF~!
Thepressed water bullets put out all of the explosive firebolts, but the vermillion me fox had already arrived right in front of Tang Li Xue, and it unleashed another fatal attack on her!
[Shredding me Chains]~!
Vermillion mes around the vermillion me fox solidified into a dozen sharp me chains and sped off to Tang Li Xue!
Once Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure was bound by them, her body might be torn and shredded apart by them in only an instant!
Tang Li Xue urged the [Water Control] and added Yaya''s [Hurricane Barrier] creating a huge water tornado barrier to repel the [Shredding me Chains]!
SPLASH~! BWOOOOOSSSH~!
Tang Li Xue''s water tornado barrier managed to negate the [Shredding me Chains], but the vermillion me fox still had not given up yet!
"Eat this and die~!" The vermillion me fox muttered coldly to Tang Li Xue as shepressed an enormous me ball and threw it at Tang Li Xue!
[Vermillion zing Bomb]~!
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The [Vermillion zing Bomb] exploded extremely violently, evaporating the entire water tornado barrier, and leaving a big and deep crater on the floor that even drained the surrounding floodwater!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue already hastily used [Shadow sh] to teleport away onto a shade 100 meters from where she stood before, so she did not get affected by the [Vermillion zing Bomb] or the great explosion.
Tang Li Xue''s expression had already turned a bit pale.
Honestly, fighting so fiercely against the vermillion me fox while controlling the [Sun Dragon ws] to fight the Eternal Joyous Cult Leader consumed her stamina, energy, and mental power so much more than she had previously expected.
At this rate, she might bepletely exhausted and lose consciousness in less than one minute.
''This is very bad~! It ispletely different from my prediction~! They should be more exhausted than me~! But why the hell are these two still so lively and energetic?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in frustration.
Actually, it was really true that both the vermillion me fox and Eternal Joyous Cult Leader were already quite exhausted, but Tang Li Xue did not know that both the vermillion me fox and Eternal Joyous Cult Leader deliberately spared some of their energy to deal with each otherter!
However, Tang Li Xue currently forced them to squeeze out their spare energy to fight more seriously against her!
While the vermillion me fox was already determined to take down Tang Li Xue no matter what it took, so it charged fearlessly at Tang Li Xue again and followed up with another lethal attack!
[Scorching me Beam]~!
The vermillion me fox opened its mouth and shot out a concentrated me beam toward Tang Li Xue!
"This damn bast*rd is crazy~! Did it already lose its mind?!" Tang Li Xue scolded the vermillion me fox for its insane move.
Yes, the vermillion me foxpletely abandoned its defense and only focused on finishing off Tang Li Xue!
In short, the vermillion me fox already knew that it would certainly lose this treasure game, so even if it got eliminated from the Foxes Hunting Festival, it must dragged down Tang Li Xue with it!
[Wind Guardian Blessing] activated~! (Increase overall speed by 50%, and grant auto-dodge effect?to the target for 10 seconds.)
[Wind Guardian Blessing] plus Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes] allowed Tang Li Xue to avoid the vermillion me fox''s [Scorching me Beam] without any harm, but the vermillion me fox already prepared to throw another [Vermillion zing Bomb] at her!
When the vermillion me fox was close enough to Tang Li Xue, it threw its [Vermillion zing Bomb] without any hesitation!
Tang Li Xue tried to create a water wall with [Water Control] and a transparent barrier with [Energy Maniption], but those were clearly far from enough to block the [Vermillion zing Bomb]!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (0/3)]
Meanwhile, the Eternal Joyous Sect leader had been forced to use his [Third Destion Fist - River and Mountain Disintegration] to destroy Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Dragon ws] along with thepressed greatsword in its grasp!
Now, the Eternal Joyous Sect leader also silently approached Tang Li Xue from behind with lightning speed like a deadly assassin!
Of course, Tang Li Xue had already sensed the Eternal Joyous Sect leader''s sneak attack with her [Extrasensory Perception], but she was currently still thrown off tens of meters by the [Vermillion zing Bomb]''s great explosion!
The Eternal Joyous Sect leader clearly wanted to take this chance to y Tang Li Xue in one move!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she tried to stabilize her silver furry figure in mid-air, but she was assaulted by dizziness instead because of the energy and mental exhaustion.
The Eternal Joyous Sect leader threw a lethal punch at Tang Li Xue from behind!
[Second Destion Fist - Eternal Drought]~!
While the vermillion me fox also attacked her from the front with [Scorching me Beam]!
''It is over...'' Tang Li Xue desperately thought in her mind as she sensed the Eternal Joyous Sect leader''s lethal punch and the vermillion me fox''s [Scorching me Beam] pincered her from the front and behind.
Just when she thought she would finally really get eliminated from the Foxes Hunting Festival this time... Her silver furry figure suddenly disappeared from there.
When Tang Li Xue cleared out her dizziness and opened her topaz blue eyes again, she found out that she had been kicked out of the treasure game and returned to Treasure Ind.
"This is... The treasure game is already over?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in surprise and confusion.
"So, I am the winner of that treasure game?" Tang Li Xue murmured as she saw a treasure box in front of her.
Then she discovered another huge problem...
"Eh, then where is Little Loki?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in bewilderment and panic.
Chapter 630 630: Missing Little Loki!
Chapter 630 Chapter 630: Missing Little Loki!
However, Tang Li Xue quickly calmed down and sighed in relief when she could faintly sense Little Loki''s location through her mental connection with Little Loki.
Now, it was clear that everyone in the treasure game would be kicked out after the winner had been decided, including all pets, summons, clones, and so on.
Unfortunately, the locations of Little Loki and Tang Li Xue were pretty far from each other after they got teleported out from the treasure game to random locations.
"Well... At least, Little Loki is not trapped in the treasure game space alone. Oh, right... It was really such a pity that I did not get any chance to grab the spatial ring containing the City Lord''s hidden treasures from that Eternal Joyous Cult''s old man..." Tang Li Xue muttered in a tone filled with regret.
Tang Li Xue had great confidence and thought all of her calctions and schemes were already perfect, but in the end, she still failed to win the City Lord''s hidden treasures.
It made her very frustrated and depressed.
Moreover, she almost got killed and eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival in the end.
Thankfully, Little Loki managed to bring the detained foxes out of the city on time right before that happened...
But this result was not too bad since it also gave a wake-up p to Tang Li Xue and made her learn not to be overconfident.
Even though she had System, but different from the protagonist in the movie, she did not have the strongest weapon called ''Protagonist Invincible Halo'', and the strongest armor called ''Protagonist Plot Armor'', so she could fail and die any time.
Tang Li Xue realized that she had to remain steady in any situation from now on and not be tempted easily by greed like in the previous treasure game.
The idea of grabbing all the treasures she saw like the protagonist in the movie was extremely dangerous since she might be lucky once or twice, but it would be impossible for her to always be lucky every time.
At least, she needs to calcte the risk carefully before doing it... The risk of grabbing the City Lord''s hidden treasures before was clearly too high, and she should not be too greedy about it.
Not only that, she also realized the crucial second problem in herself.
After obtaining several powerful divine abilities and getting much stronger as she was right now, she actually subconsciously looked down on the other people and regarded them as mere NPCs in the RPG games.
It was once again a fatal mistake on her part, and the consequence was that she might have already been caught by those City Lord''s guard captains if not for the timely arrival of those Eternal Joyous Cult''s people by exploding several ces in the City Lord''s Mansion.
Especially, the guard captain with a terribly high IQ equal to Holm*s was clearly not destined to be a mere NPC or side character... he could actually precisely guess her n!
If Tang Li Xue knew that she almost got caught by the guard captains before because that terribly high IQ guard captain managed to find out that she used [Mystic Whisper] on several guards and used Tracing Compass to track her location, she might be even more depressed.
In fact, Tang Li Xue even doubted that the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader could easily get out of the City Lord''s Mansion safely after that because that terribly high IQ guard captain might have a contingency n to prevent it from happening.
While pondering all of her mistakes and striving to fix them as soon as possible, Tang Li Xue grabbed the treasure box in front of her and sprinted toward Little Loki''s location after activating her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment].
She also canceled her [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya, and let Yaya take a rest by sleeping in her system''s pet space.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue was also already extremely exhausted and wanted to sleep so badly right now, but she was very worried about Little Loki, so she decided to look for Little Loki first.
.....
Meanwhile, Little Loki already found out that it had already been kicked out from the treasure game space.
Little Loki looked at the beautiful mountain scenery around it, but it was not the time for it to enjoy the scenery since it failed to find Tang Li Xue.
Little Loki sat rxed on the grassy ground while licking its paw and thinking for a while...
But thinking was clearly not Little Loki''s expertise, so it gave uppletely after only a few moments.
After sensing that Tang Li Xue was moving fast toward it through their mental connection with each other, Little Loki decided to wait for Tang Li Xue to get here instead.
Since Tang Li Xue had almostpletely exhausted, she did not use any buff or skill to run, so it might take quite some time for her to get to Little Loki''s location.
When Little Loki yawnedzily and wanted to take a quick nap, it suddenly heard a creepyugh from nearby.
Little Loki felt very annoyed because the sound of the creepyugh interrupted its mood to sleep, so it decided to check who dared to disturb its sleep.
After walking a few dozen meters and entering the periphery of the jungle area, Little Loki actually saw a faintly familiar figure!
Little Loki cutely tilted its tiny furry head as it tried to remember where it had seen this familiar fox...
Then it finally remembered after a while, this amber-colored fox who else if it was not Tang Li Xue''s opponent in the previous treasure game!
But Little Loki pouted in puzzlement and annoyance when it saw that this amber-colored fox actually got a treasure box.
Little Loki thought Tang Li Xue should be the treasure game''s winner and got the treasure box since it sessfully escorted those detained foxes out of the city after facing so much difficulty against the patrolling city guards.
But how could this amber-colored fox be the winner and get the treasure box?!
Little Loki did not know that Tang Li Xue was the winner of the treasure game, and she also got the treasure box.
So, how could this amber-colored fox get the treasure box even though it did not win the treasure game?!
The answer was simple... The treasure box that this amber-colored fox got was actually an extra reward for the amber-colored fox after getting the City Lord''s hidden treasures!
At thest moment, the amber-colored fox''s [Scorching me Beam] was actually not aiming at Tang Li Xue, but it was aiming at the Eternal Joyous Cult leader''s finger!
After cutting off the Eternal Joyous Cult leader''s finger with its [Scorching me Beam], the amber-colored fox activated the fire clone it secretly put on the Eternal Joyous Cult leader''s body beforehand to retrieve the spatial ring on the severed finger right before it teleported out from the treasure game''s space.
As a final result, it was counted as the amber-colored fox managed to get the City Lord''s hidden treasures. Not only it did not get eliminated from the Foxes Hunting Festival, but the amber-colored fox even got the additional treasure box reward in the end.
It could be easily imagined how happy and excited the amber-colored fox was right at this moment.
On the contrary to the amber-colored fox''s happy and excited mood, Little Loki felt really unhappy and annoyed.
After Little Loki stared at the treasure box in the amber-colored fox''s grasp for a few moments again, it showed its signature evil sneer.
It was clear that Little Loki was up to no good right now!
Little Loki summoned out its two [Phantom Splitter] clones, and the three of them activated [Instant Teleportation] at the same time!
Little Loki and both of its [Phantom Splitter] clones instantly appeared right in front of the amber-colored fox, and they managed to catch the amber-colored foxpletely out of guard!
Little Loki swiftly unleashed its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] to lock the amber-colored fox''s senses and movement, then it quickly took away the treasure box from the amber-colored fox''s grasp!
While both of its [Phantom Splitter] clones used [sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi] in unison at the amber-colored fox!
PUUFFF~! PUUFFF~!
"WOOOOOOO~!" The amber-colored fox howled in pain, but who knew that it could actually move a bit under the effect of Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]?!
Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones actually targeted the amber-colored fox''s neck, and they nned to kill the amber-colored fox in one move.
However, they only managed to cut the amber-colored fox''s right and left shoulders because of the amber-colored fox''s timely movement.
The amber-colored fox activated its [Vermillion Burst Mode] in great fury and transformed into the vermillion me fox!
In that instant, the extremely deep wounds on both of its shoulders vanished while it was in [Vermillion Burst Mode].
Even Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] could no longer affect the amber-colored fox after it transformed into the vermillion me fox!
But Little Loki was not intimidated at all.
Little Loki still put on its usualzy look while sneering smugly at the vermillion me fox and waving its paw at it.
The vermillion me fox became even angrier at Little Loki''s provocation. The vermillion me on its body was burning even more bigger and fiercer as it charged toward Little Loki!
The vermillion me fox''s body transformed into a huge fireball as it came down like a meteor!
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The huge fireball exploded extremely violently, destroying everything around it to ashes!
However, Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones had already used [Instant Teleportation] to get out from its explosion''s radius.
Chapter 631 631: Little Loki VS Vermillion Flame Fox!
Chapter 631 Chapter 631: Little Loki VS Vermillion me Fox!
The expressions of Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones did not change much even after they witnessed the vermillion me fox''s terrifying power.
Anyway, Little Loki had already stolen away the treasure box, and it could run away from the vermillion me fox anytime it wanted with its [Instant Teleportation].
Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones activated [Instant Teleportation] and instantly appeared on the right and left sides of the vermillion me fox!
[Scythe w Qi] x2~!
PUUFF~! PUUFF~!
The two [Scythe w Qi] shot out by the two [Phantom Splitter] clones managed to hit the vermillion me fox''s body, but it did not do any damage since the vermillion mes shrouded the vermillion me fox blocked them.
The vermillion me fox angrily opened its mouth and spurted out its vermillion mes toward the two [Phantom Splitter] clones!
But the two [Phantom Splitter] clones hastily used [Instant Teleportation] again to get out of the way from the vermillion mes.
Seeing that Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones coulde and go freely from it without any difficulty, the vermillion me fox felt even worse than fighting against Tang Li Xue before.
Moreover, the vermillion me fox clearly had already been very exhausted and could only maintain its [Vermillion Burst Mode] for a few more minutes at most.
At this rate, Little Loki would certainly toy with the vermillion me fox until it was exhausted to death!
The vermillion me fox red viciously at the real Little Loki who was currently sitting leisurely while holding its treasure box.
Little Loki could easily read that the vermillion me fox nned to do something to it, but it did not worry too much about it.
The two [Phantom Splitter] clonesunched another wave of attacks to the vermillion me fox, but the vermillion me fox hastily activated its skill to momentarily bind them instead!
[Shredding me Chains]~!
Vermillion mes that covered the vermillion me fox solidified into a dozen sharp me chains and bound the two [Phantom Splitter] clones!
The [Shredding me Chains] tore the two [Phantom Splitter] clones apart into pieces, but they only turned into ck smoke and began to recover back to normal.
The vermillion me fox took this chance to charge toward the real Little Loki!
Before Little Loki could get away with its [Instant Teleportation], the vermillion me fox had already unleashed a quick attack on it!
[Scorching me Beam]~!
The vermillion me fox opened its mouth and shot out a concentrated me beam toward Little Loki!
Little Loki hastily jumped aside to avoid the vermillion me fox''s [Scorching me Beam], but the vermillion me fox quickly adjusted the trajectory of its [Scorching me Beam] to chase after Little Loki!
Little Loki had so much difficulty to continue to avoid the [Scorching me Beam] while holding the treasure box that was even bigger than its tiny furry body.
Without any other choice, Little Loki could only throw the treasure box aside for now and focus on dodging the [Scorching me Beam] instead!
The vermillion me fox used this opportunity to solidify another [Shredding me Chains] and carefully controlled it to grab the treasure box!
But the two [Phantom Splitter] clones had alreadypletely recovered, and they used [Scythe w Qi] to cut the [Shredding me Chains] before the vermillion me fox could even touch the treasure box!
"You annoying filthy cat~! Perish under my mes~!" The vermillion me fox shouted with a hoarse voice mixed with extreme fury as it threw an enormous vermillion me ball toward the real Little Loki!
[Vermillion zing Bomb]~!
BBBOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The [Vermillion zing Bomb] exploded extremely violently, and the powerful shockwave also sted away the two [Phantom Splitter] clones along with the treasure box!
Fortunately, Little Loki had already used [Instant Teleportation] to teleport out from the [Vermillion zing Bomb]''s explosion radius on time.
But the vermillion mes spread around really fast, and the entire forest area had already lit in the vermillion mes!
"It is over for you~! This ce has be my domain~!" The vermillion me fox dered with a smug tone filled with confidence.
The vermillion mes which burning the entire forest area were getting bigger, and they were dancing even more violently under the vermillion me fox control!
Little Loki frowned a bit as it started to ponder carefully whether it should retreat from here using its [Instant Teleportation] right now or it should just keep persisting for a little bit longer.
There was some chance that the vermillion me fox was only pretending to be tough, but in fact, it was almostpletely exhausted.
Little Loki really wanted to take this gamble and persist until the vermillion me fox waspletely exhausted, but it also worried that Tang Li Xue would worry about its safety.
Just when Little Loki was hesitating about what it needed to do right now...
DRIP~! DRIP~! DRIP~! DRIP~! DRIP~!
The pitter-patter sound spread on the entire forest area as fine dense rain suddenly fell from the skies!
Little Loki could sense Tang Li Xue''s power behind this heavy rain, so it must be Tang Li Xue who used her martial soul to create this heavy rain!
Even though Tang Li Xue had not yet arrived there yet, she could already see the huge vermillion mes burning the entire forest from afar!
She could also sense that Little Loki was facing some danger through their mental connection, so Tang Li Xue sent this heavy rain to help Little Loki!
"Rain again?! How could it be?!" The vermillion me fox gnashed its fangs and muttered in anger and annoyance.
Little Loki smiled warmly as it watched the fine dense rain slowly suppress the vermillion mes, making them smaller and smaller.
Meanwhile, its two [Phantom Splitter] clones had alreadyunched another attack toward the vermillion me fox to make it busy for a while, so it could not grab the treasure box.
Little Loki used [Instant Teleportation] to teleport toward the treasure box and picked it up again.
The vermillion me fox felt extremely resentful and angry because the heavy rain made its energy drain more than twice as fast as usual.
But it was already toote for the vermillion me fox to run away from Little Loki since it could onlyst for one more minute.
The vermillion me fox viciously thought while ring at Little Loki with a pair of red eyes: ''Since you dared to rob my treasure and did not even n to let me go, then do not me me for dragging you down with me!''
The vermillion me fox no longer hesitated as it used [Shredding me Chains] to bind the two [Phantom Splitter] clones again for the second time!
After shredding both of them with [Shredding me Chains], the vermillion me fox burned them by spurting the vermillion mes from its mouth to make them recover even longer.
Then the vermillion me fox activated its [me Dash] and charged swiftly toward Little Loki!
Little Loki grabbed the treasure box and nned to use its [Instant Teleportation] to swiftly get away from the approaching vermillion me fox, but before it could do that...
PUUUUUFFF~!
A fire clone with an identical appearance to the vermillion me fox suddenly appeared from the treasure box and bit onto Little Loki''s tiny furry body tightly!
Little Loki: ''?!''
Little Loki waspletely caught off guard by this expected move from the vermillion me fox!
Yes, this was the same move it used on the Eternal Joyous Cult''s leader when the vermillion me fox snatched the spatial ring containing the City Lord''s hidden treasures from him!
"Die~!" The vermillion me fox shouted with a voice filled with killing intent as it shot out the [Scorching me Beam] from its mouth to Little Loki!
There was no way for Little Loki to use its [Instant Teleportation] under this condition, so it urgently controlled its two [Phantom Splitter] clones to use their [Instant Teleportation] instead, even though they had notpletely recovered their deformed body yet!
One of the two [Phantom Splitter] clones appeared right beside the vermillion me fox that was currently charging toward Little Loki!
That [Phantom Splitter] clone forcefullyunched a tackle on the vermillion me fox, making it stumbled, and its [Scorching me Beam] missed Little Loki!
While the other [Phantom Splitter] clone teleported to Little Loki''s side and pushed Little Loki away from the [Scorching me Beam]''s trajectory!
Little Loki controlled its two [Phantom Splitter] clones to do two different rescue moves at the same time, so even if one of them failed, it still could save its life in this critical moment!
But the vermillion me fox still did not n to let Little Loki go just like that!
While Little Loki still did not have any time to release itself from the persistent fire clone that kept biting its tiny furry body so tightly, the vermillion me fox had already unleashed another lethal attack toward Little Loki!
"Hehehehe... Ahahaha~! You cannot teleport away in that condition, right?! Dieeeee~!" The vermillion me foxughed maniacally as itpressed an enormous me ball and threw it at Little Loki!
[Vermillion zing Bomb]~!
This time, Little Loki had really run out of options!
Of course, it still could use its [Heaven''s Devour] to eat that [Vermillion zing Bomb], but its identity as Taotie cub might be discovered!
Little Loki gnashed its teeth and decided not to use its [Heaven''s Devour] in the end because it did not want to implicate Tang Li Xue!
Its [Phantom Splitter] clone was still in deformed form, so it could notunch any attack yet with its ws, but it desperately pushed the fire clone to release the real Little Loki, so the real Little Loki could teleport away with its [Instant Teleportation].
Unfortunately, its effort was futile since the fire clone was biting the real Little Loki too tightly...
Chapter 632 632: Obtaining Double Treasure Boxes!
Chapter 632 Chapter 632: Obtaining Double Treasure Boxes!
When the [Vermillion zing Bomb] almost hit Little Loki...
BOOOOOOOOOM~!!!
The highlypressed water cannon suddenly sprayed toward the [Vermillion zing Bomb], causing it to bounce back before it could hit Little Loki!
Little Loki was dumbfounded.
When it turned around, it saw Tang Li Xue sitting on the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s back, and they were flying toward its direction!
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief as she saw Little Loki was only slightly injured from being bitten by the vermillion me fox''s fire clone.
Then she gnashed her fangs in anger and resentment when she stared at the vermillion me fox whileining: "This damned annoying fox is really hateful~! Not only did it almost kill me before, but now, it even wanted to kill Little Loki~?! Completely unforgiveable~!"
[Tidal Wave]~!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The forest burning in the vermillion mes was shaking greatly as a huge tidal wave came and washed it down!
The vermillion me fox also red hatefully at Tang Li Xue and shouted: "You insolent bast*rd, why do you always..."
BWOOOOOSSHH~!
Before the vermillion me fox could finish its cursing words, the huge tidal wave had already swept its body and extinguished its vermillion mes!
Under the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s control, Little Loki was untouched by the huge tidal wave.
Tang Li Xue hastily jumped down from the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s back, then she used [Moon Shattering Strike] to destroy the fire clone and sessfully released Little Loki.
After that, Tang Li Xue cast [Healing Bubble] onto Little Loki, so its wounds would heal much faster.
(Healing Bubble: Covered the target with a water bubble to increase the HP regeneration by 300% and heal the target for 500 HP every second.)
"Little Loki, you should take a rest first. Just leave that damned fox to me, okay?" Tang Li Xueforted Little Loki while gently patting its tiny furry head with her paw.
Little Loki resentfully shook its head and replied: "Nyaw Mew Meaaww~!?Meow Meow Nyaw~! (No, that damned fox is mine~! I will defeat it myself~!)"
Tang Li Xue shook her head helplessly and said: "All right, let''s just defeat it together quickly! I want to take some rest too."
Little Loki nodded in agreement as its two [Phantom Splitter] clones had already recovered back to normal.
The [Golden Winged Serpent] merged with Tang Li Xue and became a pair of golden gauntlets wrapped on Tang Li Xue''s front paws!
Under her perfect [Water Control], the rainwater under her feet became a tall water wave, and Tang Li Xue surfed forward on top of it.
Before the vermillion me fox could take any breath after getting tossed around by the huge tidal wave, it was already attacked by the tall water wave!
Tang Li Xue took this chance to unleash another water attack on the vermillion me fox!
[Compressed Heavy Water Ball]~!
This was thetest skill Tang Li Xueprehended after she fought while using [Water Control].
Afterpressing the water into one point like [me Bomb], the water actually became a lot heavier, and she actually managed to create this [Compressed Heavy Water Ball].
''Uh, well... This is unscientific, but who cares as long as it works, right?! Eat this, you scummy fox~!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she threw the [Compressed Heavy Water Ball] to the vermillion me fox!
BOOOOOOOM~!
The [Compressed Heavy Water Ball] actually exploded the moment it hit the vermillion me fox!
The vermillion mes on its body were instantly extinguished, and it changed back into the amber-colored fox.
Meanwhile, Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones had already used [Instant Teleportation] to instantly appear on the amber-colored fox''s right, left, and front sides.
Then the three of them unleashed [sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi] in unison at the amber-colored fox from three different sides, giving it no chance to block or dodge their finishing attacks at all!
Tang Li Xue even gave [Sharp Edge Power] buff to the real Little Loki to increase the lethality of its attack even further!
PUUFF~! PUUFF~! PUUFF~!
The amber-colored fox''s body was cut into several pieces in an instant!
But there was no blood spilling out from it as its body turned into a group of white light and dissipated.
Tang Li Xue immediately canceled her merging with [Golden Winged Serpent] and let it enter her Dantian again to rest.
"Let''s get out from here quickly, Little Loki~! The sign of our battle is too obvious. I bet the other foxes would certainly soone here to check it! We are already too exhausted to fight another battle, so we better retreat as soon as possible from this ce." Tang Li Xue exined to Little Loki.
Little Loki nodded at Tang Li Xue, but it quickly ran back first to take the neglected treasure box and showed it to Tang Li Xue with a smug look.
"This is... a treasure box?! Where did you get it from?" Tang Li Xue stared at the treasure box in astonishment and asked curiously at Little Loki.
Little Loki pointed its paw at the location where the amber-colored fox died before, signaling that it got the treasure box from the amber-colored fox.
Tang Li Xue frowned and pondered for a few moments, then her topaz blue eyes shone with excitement.
She quickly checked the location where the amber-colored fox died while asking Little Loki: "Little Loki, did you see if that damned scummy fox carried a spatial ring with it before?"
Little Loki tilted its head cutely in puzzlement and shook its head.
"Strange... I thought that Scummy Fox managed to snatch the spatial ring containing the City Lord Treasures from the Eternal Joyous Cult''s old man... But where is the spatial ring right now?" Tang Li Xue murmured while frowning deeply in confusion.
"Is it possible that the damned scummy fox obtained the spatial ring containing the City Lord Treasures, but the treasure game gave this treasure box instead as the recement in the end?" Tang Li Xue guessed.
Then she finally realized that the spatial ring she got from the rich merchant in the treasure game was also missing right now.
Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head and showed her treasure box to Little Loki, then said with a satisfied smile on her face: "Well, forget it~! That is not important anymore. Anyway, we won the treasure game and even managed to obtain two treasure boxes~!"
Little Loki was shocked when it saw Tang Li Xue also had a treasure box with her.
Tang Li Xue took Little Loki and put it on the top of her head before she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn invisible.
Her [Extrasensory Perception] had already sensed several foxes entering fast into the burned forest.
With two treasure boxes on her, she really did not want to meet with any of them, since they would surely want to rob her treasure boxes, so Tang Li Xue hastily used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to get away from there as soon as possible!
There was no guarantee that those foxes would not be able to detect her while her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] activated, so she decided to just run away in the opposite direction of them.
On her way, Tang Li Xue realized that the number of surviving foxes was even much lesser than before.
It seemed the first phase of this Foxes Hunting Festival would really end soon.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue wanted to win more treasure games before the first phase of this Foxes Hunting Festival ended, but there was nothing she could do about it since she was too exhausted right now.
Tang Li Xue could only sigh in disappointment and thought: ''I only won seven treasure games so far, huh... Damn, it did not even reach two digits~! It is so little... Sigh, that previous striped fox had already won eleven treasure games.''
Whileining in her heart, she had already run hundreds of miles away from the burned forest.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Spider Scorpion Transformation] and dug a deep underground tunnel.
After covering the entrance, Tang Li Xue put down Little Loki and said with a satisfied smile on her face: "All right, it is really great that we got two treasure boxes, so each of us will have one~!"
Little Loki nodded as it also smiled in satisfaction.
Both of them opened their own treasure box and took out the contents inside it.
Tang Li Xue got a crystal blue herb from her treasure box, while Little Loki got a dried lotus seed.
"Pffftt~!" Tang Li Xue almostughed at Little Loki''s pathetic dried lotus seed, but she quickly suppressed it.
But it was already toote since Little Loki had already red at her and pouted in anger.
"Uhh, I am really sorry, Little Loki. How about if we exchange your lotus seed with my bue herb?" Tang Li Xue tried tofort Little Loki.
However, Little Lokipletely ignored Tang Li Xue as it threw the dried lotus seed into its mouth and went to sleep.
Tang Li Xue shook her head in guilt, but there was nothing she could do to appease Little Loki right now since it already fell asleep.
Tang Li Xue also ate the crystal blue herb while impatiently waiting for her system to tell her its effect.
Chapter 633 633: Future Goddess of Flames!
Chapter 633 Chapter 633: Future Goddess of mes!
Different from the slept Little Loki, Tang Li Xue was assaulted by a head-splitting headache as if her mind and soul were sliced into tiny pieces right at this moment.
Thankfully, the unbearable tearing pain onlysted for about one minute or so, otherwise, she might not have been able to hold it in anymore and screamed out loud in pain.
----------------------------------------
*Ding!
[You had consumed Spirit Essense Flower.]
[Your Spirit stat increased by 1,000.]
[Your Strength, Agility, and Toughness stats increased by 300.]
[You have unlocked Spiritualist Battle Style and obtained [Spirit Shock] skill!]
----------------------------------------
"What?! A new Battle Style? Spiritualist?" Tang Li Xue muttered in confusion and quickly checked her status window on her system.
Battle Style: Imperial Moon Dancer [Moonlight sh (Lv2), Moonlight Flickering sh Step (Mastered), (Moon Shattering Strike (Lv2)]; Spiritualist [Spirit Shock (Lv1)]
"Woah~! [Spirit Shock]?! Is it a spirit-type offensive skill? Awesome~!" Tang Li Xue said in an excited tone.
Even though Tang Li Xue still did not know how strong was this [Spirit Shock], but the spirit-type offensive skill like this [Spirit Shock] was extremely rare and troublesome to deal with since it could pass through any defense and attack the opponent''s soul directly.
----------------------------------------
Strength: 4,300 --> 4,600
Agility: 3,300 --> 3,600
Toughness: 5,000 --> 5,000
Spirit: 3,200 --> 4,200
*Ding!
[Your Toughness stat has reached the maximum limit, and it can no longer be increased anymore. Please evolve to a higher-grade beast as soon as possible to increase the maximum limit of all stats.]
[The excessive Toughness stat had already been automatically converted into EXP!]
----------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched in dissatisfaction when she saw thest notification from her system.
"It is really such a pity... The precious 300 Toughness stat was wasted just like that, and I only got EXP. Moreover, it is not even enough for me to level up~!" Tang Li Xueined with a tone filled with frustration and regret.
After all, losing 300 Toughness stat was equal to losing 300 free stat points!
Each time Tang Li Xue leveled up, she only got 100 free stat points, so losing 300 stat points was the same as losing 3 levels!
So, how could she not feel extreme heartache after losing that 300 Toughness stat?!
Tang Li Xue felt like she almost wanted to cough out a few mouthfuls of blood in grief, but when she felt extremely ufortable, her system suddenly gave another message to her.
[Host does not need to think too much about it. There certainly will be many other chances to get more stat pointster as long as the Hostpletes more quests in the future.]
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned gloomy as she replied: "That does not sound like afort at all. It sounds more like a motivated speech in the MLM (Multi Level Marketing)pany to sell more items in order to get paid more..."
Unfortunately, her system did not reply to Tang Li Xue anymore this time.
After calming down a little bit, Tang Li Xue thought of an even more worrying problem and decided to ask her system again.
"System, since all stats have a maximum limit, does that mean the number of divine abilities also has a maximum limit too?" Tang Li Xue asked with a curious tone.
[Of course, it has. Every creature''s body is no different than a bottle after all. Everything whether items or living creatures, even every world and realm has a limit. It is impossible to keep filling any of them without reaching the limit.]
[The only difference is how low or high the maximum limit is.]
[Host should not forget that Host is currently just [Umon] Grade beast. Honestly, Host''s stats maximum limit is already very high for?[Umon] Grade beast because Host has Imperial Moon Fox bloodline and Pure Sun Dragon bloodline to boost the maximum limit by more than three times.]
[The normal stats'' maximum limit for [Umon] Grade beast is usually around 1,000 to 1,500.]
After reading her system''s exnation, Tang Li Xue quickly felt a lot better.
"What is the maximum limit to the number of divine abilities I can currently have?" Tang Li Xue asked her system again.
[Host can have up to 25 different divine abilities at this grade, and the number might be doubled after Host evolved to a higher grade. Host currently only has 16 divine abilities, so Host can awaken 9 more divine abilities.]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after getting the exact information from her system.
"9 more divine abilities, huh... Then there is nothing for me to worry~! Well, it is probably impossible for me to win 9 more treasure games before this Foxes Hunting Festival ends." Tang Li Xue muttered with a tone filled with relief.
Tang Li Xuey down in the dark underground tunnel in exhaustion and fell asleep too with a relieved smile on her face.
.....
Tang Li Xue and even Little Loki failed to realize that their previous battle against the vermillion me fox was actually under the observation of someone.
Moreover, the one who observed them was actually an Apex Predator-level fox!
A stunning young girl with short wavy white hair closed her eyes while sitting on the top of the cliff and leisurely dangling her legs down.
The girl''s figure might not be outstanding like other fox girls, but her snowy white skin was very eye-catching.
She slowly opened her eyes, and even her eyes were the same as her hair and skin, they were also as white as clean snow.
Her fox ears and tails were also snowy white.
Her entire being looked clean and spotless without any stains or dust.
Her appearance could only be described as sacred and holy.
She opened her pink lips and muttered with a regretful tone: "It is such a pity. I thought I just found another good candidate as my vassal, but it turned out to be worthless trash."
"Sigh, it is really a waste of my time. I should just go and find another one." The short wavy-haired girl stood up and nned to go to another ce to find another candidate for her vassal, but before she could do it, another fox girl alreadye toward her.
The fox girl who came was the purple-eyed beautiful girl. Yes, she was actually Lei Qian''er.
Lei Qian''er cheerfully greeted the short wavy-haired girl with a beautiful smile on her face: "Hey, Huohuo~! What are you doing here? Did you find another vassal here?"
The short wavy-haired girl was surprisingly another Apex Predator-level fox from Tu Shan Fox Tribe other than Lei Qian''er.
The short wavy-haired girl shook her head with a gloomy expression and replied: "Nope~! I thought I found a good candidate, but it turned out to be a useless one who cannot even get out from the foolish fact that me elemental is weak against water elemental."
Lei Qian''er giggled and said: "Your standard is too abnormally high~! Not everyone is like you, okay~?!"
The short wavy-haired girl shrugged her shoulder helplessly and murmured: "Something like me is weak against water is utterly stupid! The reason its me could not win against water means that its me is far too weak."
Lei Qian''er shook her head in disagreement, but she could not say anything to argue against that statement.
Because there was no creature with water-elemental divine abilities that could match this short wavy-haired girl until now.
This short wavy-haired girl is called Bai Huohuo.
Or rather she was usually known as... Tu Shan''s Goddess of me, Bai Huohuo.
Then Lei Qian''er suddenly remembered Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride. She really looked forward to the rivalry between Tang Li Xue and Bai Huohuo since both of them wield powerful mes!
Bai Huohuo stared at the Lei Qian''er suspiciously and asked: "Why did you look at me like that? Every time you stare at me like that, you would always y a tasteless prank on me."
Lei Qian''erughed and replied: "No, I just recalled someone who has powerful mes like you~!"
Bai Huohuo raised her eyes as she felt interested.
Someone who could attract Lei Qian''er''s eyes should be extremely extraordinary.
"Oh, can you tell me more about it? Maybe I can consider taking it as my vassal." Bai Huohuo asked Lei Qian''er.
Lei Qian''er sneered at Bai Huohuo and replied: "Want to take that one as your vassal?! Dream on~! I just wonder which one of you will be the true Goddess of me of our Fox n in the future~!"
Bai Huohuo widened her sacred-looking white eyes in surprise. She never thought that Lei Qian''er would think so highly of that fox!
But Bai Huohuo did not get intimidated at all.
On the contrary, she became even more motivated and spirited as she said with a delightful smile on her stunning face: "Oh, I am really looking forward to meeting that one~! I hope that one will not disappoint me."
Sacred white mes burst out from Bai Huohuo''s body as she felt her spirit burning intensely since she could not wait to fight against the fox that Lei Qian''er said.
Surprisingly, this sacred white me was one of the 7 Heavenly Will Spirits, me of Humility.
"Oh, right? By the way, how many vassals have already been marked?" Lei Qian''er asked curiously.
"Twenty-eight. How about you?" Bai Huohuo asked back.
"Sixteen." Lei Qian''er replied with a casual tone.
Bai Huohuo stared strangely at Lei Qian''er and muttered impatiently: "You still dare to say my standard is too abnormally high~?! At least take more vassals quickly, we do not have much more time."
"Hey, I know~! But you should know that I am quite picky about my vassals. Not only about strength, but they must also have interesting personality." Lei Qian''er replied while smiling rxedly.
Bai Huohuo rolled her sacred-looking white eyes and said: "What is the use of personality? Are you looking for vassals or spouses?!"
Chapter 634: [Rare] Grade Evolution Path!
634 Chapter 634: [Rare] Grade Evolution Path!
.....
Tang Li Xue''s eyshes fluttered as she slowly opened her topaz blue eyes.
She did not know how long she had already slept, but she felt very refreshed right now.
Tang Li Xuezily stretched her slender furry body while yawning.
She took out the sleeping Yaya from her system''s pet space and woke her up with the sleeping Little Loki.
The three of them got out of the underground tunnel together, but they instantly became dumbfounded when they saw the changes in the surrounding environment.
"What the hell is this~?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in confusion and disbelief.
They actually saw many smaller inds floating in the skies!
No, this change should not just be their surrounding environment... It should be the entire Treasure Ind that waspletely changed!
The Treasure Ind actually split into many smaller floating inds!
Tang Li Xue still did not really understand what had happened until...

Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock.
Only after a few while, she finally woke up from her astonishment and eximed in delight: became a lot more generous after it got upgraded~!"
15:39
Tang Li Xue smiled until her mouth was crooked andughed madly in joy when she saw so many Stat "Woooow~! So many rewards~! System really did not lie to me~! The quest rewards really became a lot more generous after it got upgraded~!"
Tang Li Xue smiled until her mouth was crooked andughed madly in joy when she saw so many Stat Points, Skill Points, and Deity Coins that had already been umted: "Uwehehehehe... Muahahahahaha~! With these points and money... I mean Deity Coins, I can squander them until my heart''s contentter~!"
Little Loki and Yaya stared strangely at Tang Li Xue as if they were looking at a mental patient, but Tang Li Xue did not care at all.
She was in a really good mood right now. Even if someone pped her face at this moment, she would surely give that person a warm passionate kiss instead... along with her sharp fangs of course.
Before she couldpletely calm down from her explosive joyful mood, her system gave her another surprise.
*Ding!

Tang Li Xue''s heart almost jumped out of her throat when she saw her system''s next notification.
She almost forgot that she had already merged with [Awakening Gem] before, so all of her evolution requirements would be reduced by 25%!
"Wha... What~?! So, That''s mean I... I can evolve into [Rare] Grade beast right here right now?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in disbelief.
Tang Li Xue''s breath became heavier as she nervously opened the evolution list in her system''s window.
Tang Li Xue thought there would be only one or two evolution paths for her, but who knew that there were only more than three evolution paths for her this time?!
--------------------------------------------------
[Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox]
[Tranquil Sky Fox]
[Heaven Firmament Fox]
[Yin and Yang Harmony Fox]
[Astral Oracle Fox]
--------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Tang Li Xue decisively closed the evolution list window with a nk expression as she wiped the nonexistent sweat on her forehead with her paw.
All those fox species'' names look very powerful... Even Tang Li Xue did not know which one to choose.
Well, since Tang Li Xue really had no idea about what these fox species were capable of or what they were best at, so she decided not to choose rashly.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her excitement, then she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn invisible and undetectable.
Little Loki and Yaya sighed in relief when they saw Tang Li Xue return to normal.
Both of them really worried that Tang Li Xue suddenly had a brain disease, but after pondering it for a while... They realized that Tang Li Xue actually already have a few screw loose in her head since the very beginning, so she should be okay.
The three of them continued their journey, but Tang Li Xue''s mind remained upied with her evolution paths.
''[Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox] sounds pretty good. It should add one more powerful bloodline to me, right? I might even awaken another regalia after I evolved into that~! Something like Regalia of Stars~!''
''[Tranquil Sky Fox] should be evolution about the sky... Maybe because I have bloodlines rted to the Sun and Moon? I do not know, but it seems no less powerful than [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox].''
''[Heaven Firmament Fox] should be the coolest name, but I do not have the slightest idea what it could do.''
''[Yin and Yang Harmony Fox]... From its name, it sounds really mysterious and powerful. I do not know if it would convert my Sun and Moon bloodlines to Yin and Yang rted bloodlines after I evolved into it.''
''[Astral Oracle Fox] is not bad either. Since it has Oracle on its name, is it a fox species with the power of divination? Well, maybe...''
It could easily be seen that each of those fox names has their own perks, but Tang Li Xue really could not decide which one was the most suitable for her.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and pushed away the matter of her evolution from her mind for now.
After passing the first phase of this Foxes Hunting Festival andpleting the [Alice in Treasure Land] quest, Tang Li Xue currently had no more quests toplete.
So, she decided to see if she could trigger the quest for passing the second phase of this Foxes Hunting Festival from her system since the reward would surely be more abundant than the previous [Alice in Treasure Land] quest...
''System, before I trigger another quest, I should make sure of this first... I would really not get punished or you would not suddenly vanish even if I failed the quest, right?'' Tang Li Xue carefully asked her system.
*Ding~
[Do not worry, Host. There will be no punishment or consequence even if Host fails toplete any quest. The host would only not get any reward after failing toplete the quest. Oh, right... Host will also not be able to trigger another quest for some time.]
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched as she suddenly felt was not good.
''Hey, System~! Didn''t you say nothing will happen even if I failed toplete any quest before?! Then why the hell there is something like not being able to trigger another quest for some time right now?! You big liar~! And how long exactly is that sometime?!'' Tang Li Xue scolded her system with an annoyed tone.
[The cooldown time to trigger another quest is uncertain. Host can ask System again after failing the questter.]
Tang Li Xue almost fainted on the spot after she heard her system''s unreliable answer.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath again to calm down her turbulent mood and pondered carefully her choice for a few minutes.
In the end, she gnashed her fangs and muttered in her mind: "There will always be risk to get any benefit. I am sure I can get more rewards if I win this gamble~! System~! Go ahead~! Do your job~!''
*Ding

[Quest: (The True Heaven''s Favored Child of the Fox n!) Compete against all the foxes in the Foxes Hunting Festival and defeat all of them!]
[Difficulty: Impossible]
[Reward: Level +40 (+10), Stat Point +5000 (+1250), Skill Point +3000 (+750), 30000 (+10000) Deity Coins]
[Additional Reward: ording to Host achievement in this second phase! If the Host chooses to only hide, then Host will not get any additional reward!]
-------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
''System, are you kidding me?! I only think about the quest to survive the second phase of this Foxes Hunting Festival, how could you give a quest to be the number one directly?! You... You really think too highly about me~!'' Tang Li Xue thought miserably as she really wanted to cry so badly right now.
The rewards were surely mouth-watering, but this quest... was clearly not something the current Tang Li Xue could even dare to think of.
Lmao, this quest is truly impossible toplete~!
godadi
Chapter 635: Second Phase: Vassal Battle Start~!
635 Chapter 635: Second Phase: Vassal Battle Start~!
[Host, how could you give up just like that without trying?! The path of all Immortal Cultivators is always defying against the heavens and fates. So, you should defy your fate and defeat all of those foxes too!]
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and thought: ''You really think that I am a protagonist in the movie or novel, huh?!''
Just thinking about going against Meng Yue with her heaven-defying [Aurora Creation Domain] already enough to make Tang Li Xue lose all of her motivation toplete that quest.
Tang Li Xue quickly put on a miserable expression and begged: "But I am not Immortal Cultivators, I am only a small fox... Umm, can I just cancel that quest right now?"
Unfortunately, the System no longer gave any response to the shameless Tang Li Xue after that.
"Tsk~! Cheapskate System~!" Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue andined displeasedly.
After traveling for a few hours with Yaya and Little Loki, Tang Li Xue realized many differences in this second phase of the Foxes Hunting Festival.
She was already aware that the entire Treasure Ind had split into many smaller floating inds, and apparently, there would be only one pir of golden light in each floating ind.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and muttered in confusion: "So if we entered the pir of golden light in one of the floating inds and won the treasure game inside it, only one pir of golden light would spawn in that floating ind againter?"
Tang Li Xue said with a grim tone: "I see... So, this is the second phase of the Foxes Hunting Festival. The vassals of those Apex Predator-level Foxes would guard each floating ind, and they would participate again and again in the treasure game to harvest the rewards, then they would offer half of them to their master."
Yes, this was the Second Phase of the Foxes Hunting Festival, the Vassal Battle.
But Tang Li Xue was still confused about many things...
There should be many other foxes who still had no vassal mark like her, right?
What would happen if the other foxes without vassal marks like her eliminated the vassals of those Apex Predator-level Foxes?
Would those Apex Predator-level Foxes get pissed off and take revenge for their eliminated vassals?
Tang Li Xue shuddered in horror when she thought that she must face the Apex Predator-level Foxes like Meng Yue and Lei Qian''er.
"Well, it should not be, right?" Tang Li Xue muttered in hesitation.
Then she recalled her current quest from System...
At that time, she was very sure that she only thought to trigger the quest about surviving the second phase of this Foxes Hunting Festival, but her System gave that impossible-toplete quest instead.
From that fact and Lei Qian''er''s words when Tang Li Xue obtained Meng Yue''s vassal mark, Tang Li Xue managed to deduce the hidden rule between Apex Predator-level Foxes.
challenging the authority of the other Apex Predator-level foxes or the master of those foxes.
15:41
All the foxes without vassal marks meant that they did not have any protection, and any Apex Predator-level foxes could actually kill all of them without any consequence.
It would be different if they had the vassal mark, killing them meant that Apex Predator-level fox challenging the authority of the other Apex Predator-level foxes or the master of those foxes.
So, the vassal could only be solved by another vassal, thus this second phase was called the vassal battle!
Now, Tang Li Xue understood what Lei Qian''er meant by saying she was really lucky to have Meng Yue''s vassal mark before...
If Tang Li Xue still has Meng Yue''s vassal mark, which Apex Predator-level foxes would dare to touch her~!
Tang Li Xue could only sigh in regret right now.
"I really should take back Meng Yue''s vassal mark from Bingbing''s sister before... Unfortunately, it is already far toote to regret it now~!" Tang Li Xue murmured in heartache.
Tang Li Xue jumped into the tree hole and urged Yaya and Little Loki to take a rest for a while.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue herself started to think carefully about her next n.
''Maybe I should just ask for another vassal mark from Lei Qian''er? If I did it, she should happily give it to me, right?'' Tang Li Xue thought.
But she quickly denied it, she had already met with Lei Qian''er again before, and she even told Lei Qian''er about the reason she lost Meng Yue''s vassal mark.
At that time, Lei Qian''er could just offer to give her vassal mark to Tang Li Xue, but she did not do it.
Why?
Tang Li Xue immediately concluded that every fox might only be able to receive the vassal mark once.
Of course, this was only Tang Li Xue''s spection since she still did not have any concrete evidence, but the truth might not be too far from that.
Since she could no longer receive another vassal mark, it meant she could only depend on herself to survive in this Foxes Hunting Festival!
So, it actually made sense that her System suddenly gave such an outrageous quest to her since she could no longer have another vassal mark, she would certainly sh against any Apex Predator Foxes sooner orter!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in frustration.
"It seems I have no other choice... I actually want to wait for a bit longer until I reach my maximum level, level 40, before I evolve into [Rare] grade beast. But if I want to survive this Foxes Hunting Festival to the end, I must evolve right here right now~!" Tang Li Xue said with a resolute tone.
"Yaya, Little Loki, listen to me~! I would evolve to Beast Lord right now. So, I hope you two can help to guard me in the evolution process, okay?" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki and Yaya with an extremely solemn tone.
Thezy expression on Yaya and Little Loki''s facespletely disappeared, and they patted their chest with confident expressions as if both of them saying that she could reassuringly leave it to them.
Tang Li Xue caressed Little Loki and Yaya''s tiny heads gently while saying with a gentle smile on her Tang Li Xue already pondered carefully all this time, and she had already decided to choose [Imperial 15:42
Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox].
furry face: "All right, I am counting on you two this time~!"
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and opened her evolution list window on her system.
Tang Li Xue already pondered carefully all this time, and she had already decided to choose [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox].
The reason was because taking the other evolution paths felt more like gambling, while this [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox] was surely the upgraded version of her current form.
"Okay, I choose you, [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox]~! Let me evolve to [Rare] grade beast now~!" Tang Li Xue shouted passionately as she tapped the [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox] option on the evolution list with her paw!
And then...
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Little Loki: "....."
Yaya: "...."
After waiting for a few moments...
Well, nothing happened at all.
Tang Li Xue blushed in embarrassment when she saw the next message from her system.
--------------------------------------------------
[Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox]
[Req: Strength, Agility, Toughness, and Spirit stats above 2000 points, Seven-colored Stars Flower, have at least one star-rted divine ability, consuming precious treasures that contain star energies until the star energies stored in the body reach more than 999.]
--------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue really forgot that there would be harsh requirements to fulfill every time she wanted to evolve to a higher grade.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently when she read the requirement to evolve into [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox].
The requirement to have Strength, Agility, Toughness, and Spirit stats above 2,000 points had already been fulfilled since all of her stats were already above 3,500 right now, but the other three requirements were extremely hard to fulfill.
"Where the hell could I find Seven Colored Stars Flower and precious treasures containing star energies?! Must have at least one star-rted divine ability is even more outrageous~! What the heck must I do to awaken star-rted divine ability?!" Tang Li Xueined displeasingly.
When Tang Li Xue turned around, she found out that both Little Loki and Yaya stared at her strangely.
Both Little Loki and Yaya clearly thought that Tang Li Xue really had a mental illness right now.
Tang Li Xue quickly exined while stuttering in embarrassment: "That... It is actually a misunderstanding~! Ahahaha... Cough, well... It looks like my feeling is wrong after all... My time to evolve has note yet."
Little Loki and Yaya puffed their cheek and angrily ignored Tang Li Xue in unison.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched a bit while she thought: ''Aren''t these two not getting along well?! Why are they surprisingly in synergy right now?!''
Tang Li Xue spent a lot of effort to coax Yaya and Little Loki on the way before they acted as usual to her.
After the sun had set, and the sky turned dark, Tang Li Xue finally found the pir of golden light on the floating ind where she was currently located.
Tang Li Xue warned Yaya and Little Loki to raise their vignce to the maximum as they slowly approached the pir of golden light.
From her previous experience, there should be one or two predator-level foxes hiding near the pir of golden light, and they would ambush any other foxes who came to approach it.
Just when the three of them almost reached the pir of golden light...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Their surrounding instantly turnedpletely dark as the three of them were trapped inside something!
"I knew this would happen~!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she gnashed her fangs.
Another ambush ising~! Could Tang Li Xue survive and win another treasure game? Let''s see it in the next chapter!
godadi
Chapter 636: The Scary Eighth Treasure Game Begin!
"Damn it~! Even though we already knew something like this would happen, we still could not prevent it!" Tang Li Xue muttered displeasantly.
Little Loki jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s back and immediately activated its [Instant Teleportation]!
Little Loki teleported out from the [The Cage of Darkness] and found the hiding fox who imprisoned the three of them just now.
Although the hiding fox was still in the invisible state, Little Loki''s extremely sharp sense of smell could still faintly sense it.
Little Loki activated its [Phantom Splitters] to summon out its two phantom clones, and the three of them swiftly charged toward the hiding fox.
[sh and sh] x3!
SWOOSH~! SWOOSH~! SWOOSH~!
The three Little Lokis vanished as their speed suddenly increased by many times, and they shed their ws to the hiding fox.
Strangely, the ws of the three Little Lokis passed through the hiding fox''s body as if they were only attacking a mere false image.
Little Loki frowned deeper as it saw the hiding fox''s strange divine ability.
It actually had the same effect as Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form]!
But Little Loki''s w attack should be able to break Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] since its w attack had already imbued with Sharp Sword Qi that Little Loki obtained from devouring the ancient legendary swords in Crystal Pce Tomb.
From that, it could be seen this hiding fox''s divine ability should be much more advanced than Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form]!
Since Little Loki still did not have any idea about how to counter this hiding fox''s strange divine ability, it decided to lock this hiding fox with its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] first!
Little Loki opened its third eye as it stared at the invisible hiding fox!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]~!
By momentarily locking the hiding fox''s senses and movements, Little Loki sessfully dispelled the [The Cage of Darkness] that imprisoned Tang Li Xue and Yaya!
After being released from the [The Cage of Darkness], Tang Li Xue and Yaya still could not find the hiding fox.
"Forget it~! Yaya, Little Loki,e here quickly~! We will enter the pir of golden light now~!" Tang Li Xue shouted to Yaya and Little Loki.
However, Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] could only lock the hiding fox for one or two seconds at most, and it quickly broke out from Little Loki''s lock.
The hiding fox immediately unleashed another attack on Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Yaya!
[Shadow Bind]~!
The movement of Tang Li Xue and her group halted once again before they could reach the pir of golden light!
"Tsk~! Do you really think I really cannot attack you just because I cannot find you?! Then you are very wrong~!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a cold tone.
[Spirit Shock]~!
Yes, this was Tang Li Xue''stest offense skill she got after consuming the precious treasure she won from the previous treasure game!
Tang Li Xue''s spirit power spread around in an instant and assaulted the consciousness of all living creatures nearby!
Of course, Tang Li Xue already excluded Yaya and Little Loki, so her [Spirit Shock] only affected the hiding fox!
This [Spirit Shock] was actually not lethal at all for the creatures with Spirit stat equal to Tang Li Xue or higher, but it still could stun them for a few moments or make them dizzy for a few seconds.
These few seconds were more than enough for Tang Li Xue to take Little Loki and Yaya back into her system''s pet space, and then she hastily jumped into the pir of golden light!
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue''s [Spirit Shock] managed to cancel the hiding fox''s strange divine ability and revealed itself to Tang Li Xue before she entered the treasure game''s space.
The hiding fox was a pitch-ck fox with an ominous grey vassal mark on its chest.
With just one nce, Tang Li Xue could sense that this pitch-ck fox was an extremely powerful one, and it must have already reached a top-tier predator-level fox.
But the ominous grey vassal mark on its chest was actually the one that attracted Tang Li Xue''s attention the most.
It gave her a repulsive and dreadful feeling just by looking at it.
Before Tang Li Xue disappeared she muttered in a loathful tone: "What an abominable vassal mark is that?!"
.....
Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes and found herself inside a cave this time.
She tried to walk out of the cave, but she actually got blocked by something invisible.
There was a countdown timer above the cave''s mouth.
[3164]...
[3163]...
[3162]...
[3161]...
"Umm, it should be around one hour, huh... Well, it is not that long when Yaya and Little Loki apany me." Tang Li Xue nodded as she released Yaya and Little Loki from her system''s pet space.
Little Loki sat on the ground and yawnedzily, while Yaya excitedly flew to Tang Li Xue and yfully hugged her snout.
Tang Li Xue also jokingly patted Yaya gently using her paw and yed with Yaya for a while.
"I have a bad feeling about that fox. You two should be more careful if you meet with that foxter. Do you two understand?" Tang Li Xue warned Yaya and Little Loki with a stern tone.
Little Loki and Yaya nodded at Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression.
Tang Li Xue sighed as she thought that all the foxes chosen as the vassals of those Apex Predator-level foxes were truly exceptional among the others.
Just like that pitch-ck fox, it was undoubtedly extremely powerful.
Little Loki exined to Tang Li Xue what had happened when it briefly fought against that pitch-ck fox before, and Tang Li Xue''s expression turned even more grim.
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] failed to detect that pitch-ck fox even though it was so close to them before.
Moreover, its strange divine ability was like an advanced divine ability of her [Ethereal Form].
This pitch-ck fox was clearly a much more troublesome opponent than Tang Li Xue had ever expected.
Time passed unknowingly as the three of them discussed the pitch-ck fox seriously, and their waiting time was up.
After the countdown timer reached zero, it changed into a string of words about the rules of the current treasure game as usual.
[ying hide and seek should be fun, but it depends on the opponent.]
[The fox who survives the longest without getting caught by it will win this treasure game.]
[Be sure to keep silent and do not move when it is close to you.]
[Never stare at its eyes or it could instantly sense you.]
[Do not be afraid to have fun with it, but be really careful to never get caught by it~! Good luck, fox cubs~!]
Tang Li Xue looked at the treasure game''s rules and muttered with a confused tone: "The rules of this treasure game are a bit strange."
Well, the treasure game''s rules were actually quite clear and easy to understand, but... the identity of ''it'' in this treasure game''s rules was never exined.
"So, we must y hide and seek now, right? But who we must hide from?! Tsk, at least give us a little bit of clue about it~!" Tang Li Xue asked while frowning deeply.
Tang Li Xue shook her furry head as she decided to stop thinking about it for now and led Yaya and Little Loki to walk out of the cave.
The night sky above them waspletely dark without any moon or stars.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue could see the surroundings very clearly with her [Night Vision].
They were actually in the middle of the dense jungle right now.
There were many huge trees and dense bushes everywhere that covered their visions.
As a cold night breeze blows Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure, she shivered violently when her heart was suddenly flooded with eerie feeling.
Although her [Extrasensory Perception] did not give her any danger warning, her hunch was screaming that this ce was really bad news for them.
''Damn it~! What a horrifying jungle is this! It is too quiet here!'' Tang Li Xue thought in fear as her expression turned pale.
Tang Li Xue quickly warned Yaya and Little Loki to never make any noise through their mental connection.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs to turn her fear into anger as she thought the first line of the rules of this treasure game.
[ying hide and seek should be fun, but it depends on the opponent.]
In short, it indirectly warned that this hide-and-seek game clearly would not be a fun game for them!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down as she hastily activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] again.
Little Loki and Yaya jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s back and sat obediently while activating their own stealth skill to turn invisible.
In the [Ethereal Form], Tang Li Xue could easily travel around unhindered in this jungle since she could pass through the huge trees and dense bushes.
Just after Tang Li Xue traveled in this creepy jungle for two or three minutes, suddenly...
"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH~! No, don''te closer to me~! HHHEEEEEEELLLLPPP~!"
Someone actually shouted out loud with a hoarse voice filled with fear and panic.
Chapter 637: Horrifying Creature!
Tang Li Xue reflexively wanted to rush toward the screaming sound.
Not because she wanted to help since everyone in this treasure game should be herpetitors to win this treasure game, but because she wanted to see what happened there.
But she quickly halted her step as she suddenly thought: ''No, this may be a trap!''
Then Tang Li Xue frightfully realized that she somehow actually almost got separated from Yaya and Little Loki!
Without knowing the reason, the three of them were about to run in three different directions!
If not for Tang Li Xue suddenly halted her step and checked at Little Loki and Yaya, they might have been already separated right now.
''Damn it~! What an annoying treasure game~!'' Tang Li Xue groaned in her heart.
When Tang Li Xue tried to inquire Little Loki and Yaya about it with telepathy, they shook their head in confusion.
Tang Li Xue felt a cold run down her spine.
The creepy dense jungle around her seemed to be even more horrifying than before as if it was alive and trying to swallow her instead!
Drip... Drip... Drip...
Under the darkness of the night sky without moon and stars, Tang Li Xue heard the faint sound of dripping getting closer and closer to her.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in panic and nervousness.
She really wanted to run away as quickly as she could from here, but she suddenly recalled the third rule of this treasure game.
[Be sure to keep silent and do not move when it is close to you.]
After hesitating for a few moments, Tang Li Xue hastily took back Little Loki and Yaya into her system''s pet space and decided to hide alone behind the bushes.
She even nned to dig an underground tunnel using her [Spider Scorpion Transformation] to hide, but she would surely make some noise when she dug, so she immediately denied that n.
Of course, she could also try to fight and kill ''it'', but since the treasure game''s rules never mentioned anything about fighting or killing ''it'', Tang Li Xue instantly deduced that whatever creature ''it'' was, that was surely not something they could defeat at their current level.
After hiding behind the tree and bushes, Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes since the fourth rule was to [never stare at its eyes or it could instantly sense you].
Drip... Drip... Drip...
The sound of dripping had already got so close to her, and she could hear it very clearly right now!
Even though Tang Li Xue had closed her topaz blue eyes, but her [Extrasensory Perception] could still ''see'' the faint figure of the approaching creature.
''Oh, cr*p~!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in panic as she hastily shut down her [Extrasensory Perception].
But it was already a bit toote, since ''it'' already faintly sensed Tang Li Xue who had already taken a glimpse at its form!
Drip... Drip... Drip...
The dripping sounds got so close to her ears all of a sudden!
Tang Li Xue even sensed warm liquid trickling onto her shoulder.
She almost jumped back in reflex, but she quickly suppressed it as the third rule of the treasure game said to never move when ''it'' was close to her.
Tang Li Xue even held her breath as she heard the faint sound of breath that was so close to her!
"Xue''er~! Are you here?"
Tang Li Xue''s heartbeat almost stopped when she heard the familiar sound right in her ears!
Yes, she could not be more familiar with this male sound.
This was actually the sound of her big brother!
"Xue''er~! Please answer~! Big brother is very worried about you~!" The male sound became a lot gentler with the mixed tone between begging and grief.
''This damn ghost~! If I could defeat it, I would have already beaten it to ck and blue right now~!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart.
"Little Xue,e out right now, or I will punish you severelyter!"
This time, the sound changed into a firm female sound with an angry tone.
Another familiar voice for Tang Li Xue... This time, it used Instructor Mei Lan''s voice to lure her out!
Of course, Tang Li Xue would never respond to anything it said, and she kept crouching behind the tree and bushes to hide herself.
''It'' changed the voice several times to Bingbing''s sound, Elder Yang''s sound, Silly Fox''s sound, and so on before it finally lost its patience.
"YoU LiTtLe FoX, LeT Me EaT YoU Or I WiLL CuRsE YoU~!"
The voice became distorted bing a high-pitched and hoarse sound.
Tang Li Xue almost instantly fainted when the horribly distorted sound entered her ears and struck directly into her consciousness.
Tang Li Xue suddenly had an urge to shout out loud, but she subconsciously bit her tongue to keep herself awake.
After persisting for a while, ''it'' snorted angrily and slowly left that ce.
Tang Li Xue could even feel its hot breath blowing her silver furs. She shuddered in fright and panic, but still stubbornly remained motionless.
The tension slowly loosened after ''it'' left that ce for a few more minutes, and Tang Li Xue finally took a deep breath to calm herself down.
When Tang Li Xue regained herposure, she realized that the amount of her energy had already decreased by half.
It seemed when that creature got close to you, it would subconsciously drain any creature''s energy near it.
Tang Li Xue wiped the warm liquid dripping from that horrible creature onto her shoulder, and only then she realized that it was actually blood.
Of course, it was surely not that horrible creature''s blood, so it should be the blood of its victim.
''What a horrible creature is that?! Does that horrible creature really exist in reality?'' Tang Li Xue asked in her mind.
Before she shut down her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue faintly sensed the horrible creature''s form.
That horror creature was actually covered with a mass of ck fog, so Tang Li Xue could not sense its form clearly, but its murderous cold dreadful aura was enough to make her feel that she had no chance of winning at all.
Tang Li Xue wanted to take out Little Loki and Yaya from her system''s pet space so they could help her dispel her fright, but she immediately gave up her intention.
She was really afraid that Little Loki and Yaya would recklessly jump to that horrible creature and fight head-on against ''it'' to protect her.
That would be a suicide move, and Tang Li Xue did not want to lose Little Loki or Yaya just because of this treasure game.
Both Little Loki and Yaya did not have the protection of the jade badge like all the participating foxes, so if they died here, they might really die for real.
She would rather choose to be eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival than let them fight against that horrible creature.
Shook her head and helplessly thought: ''It seems I can only rely on myself this time...''
But from this encounter, Tang Li Xue obtained several crucial information about that monstrous creature.
First, as long as she kept silent and did not move when hiding that horrible creature would have a hard time finding her.
Second, that horrible creature could mimic the voices of people she knew to lure her to answer it.
''Wait a minute... If it could really mimic the voices of people I know, then does it mean that monstrous creature has the power to read my mind?'' Tang Li Xue frowned and pondered for a while.
''No, it should not be... If it could read my mind, it would have already found me long ago. Or maybe it could make hypnotic sounds to let its target hear the familiar voices. Yes, this should be correct.'' Tang Li Xue nodded her head.
Third, when that monstrous creature got close to her in a certain radius, it would subconsciously drain her energy! This should be the most fearful ability of that monstrous creature since its target was forced to make a quick decision whether to run farther from it or get their energy drained by that creature until dry!
Tang Li Xue swiftly used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and ran away from that ce as quickly as she could!
Tang Li Xue was truly thankful to her [Ethereal Form] power to pass through any obstacle such as bushes and trees in front of her without any sound, if she had not been in her [Ethereal Form], she would certainly made a lot of noise every time she passes through the bushes.
Just when Tang Li Xue thought that she only needed to hide from that monstrous creature until she won this treasure game...
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
Her silver furry body suddenly got struck by something heavily!
Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] got automatically canceled, and she was thrown off dozens of meters!
Tang Li Xue crashed into several huge trees until those trees fell!
She stood up again, but she got moderately injured.
However, it made her remember that she still had not turned on her [Extrasensory Perception] yet, so she quickly did it.
Chapter 638: A Close Call!
Tang Li Xue was facing a huge dilemma right now.
If she turned on her [Extrasensory Perception] and identally ''stared'' at that horrifying creature, that horrifying creature would also sense her in an instant.
But if she turned off her [Extrasensory Perception], she would not be able to sense the iing ambush or attack from the other foxes participating in this treasure game just like now.
Anyway, it was not the time for Tang Li Xue to think about that right now since the ambushing fox had alreadyunched another attack on Tang Li Xue for the second time.
[Wind Cannon st]~!
This time, Tang Li Xue had already prepared, and she hastily [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to avoid it!
BOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
However, the attack from the ambushing fox struck the ground where Tang Li Xue stood before and created another deafening explosion!
Tang Li Xue did not want to y around with this crazy ambushing fox anymore since the horrifying creature surely had heard thismotion and would definitelye here soon!
Tang Li Xue turned around and used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to quickly get away from there!
But how could the ambushing fox let Tang Li Xue go just like that?!
It immediately caught up with Tang Li Xue and unleashed its [Wind Cannon st] on Tang Li Xue from the right side!
Since Tang Li Xue could no longer avoid this sudden attack, she could only try to block it with a transparent barrier created by her [Energy Maniption].
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s transparent barrier shattered like fragile ss, and her silver furry body was thrown off dozens of meters!
Tang Li Xue utilized this impact to get away farther from the ambushing fox and tried to escape from it.
Unfortunately, this ambushing fox with its set of wind-elemental divine abilities was too much fasterpared to the current Tang Li Xue, so no matter what Tang Li Xue did, it could immediately catch up and mercilesslyunch sudden attacks from her blind spot angle.
''This damn fox~! Is it really nning to drag me down to die with it?!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger and frustration.
After hesitating for a while whether she must fight against this ambushing fox or keep trying to run away from it, Tang Li Xue still decided to do thetter.
But this time, she did not hesitate to enter [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya to increase her speed by many times!
Tang Li Xue released Yaya from her system''s pet space, and Yaya instantly understood what Tang Li Xue wanted to do through their mental connection.
Yaya turned into a sh of green light and merged into Tang Li Xue''s body.
*Ding!
[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]
The ambushing fox seemed to lose its patience too as it unleashed several [Wind Cannon sts] at once on Tang Li Xue!
[Wings of Freedom] activated~! (Increase the effect of Agility stat by five times and grant Fast Flight buff for 15 minutes duration. Cooldown: 1 hour)
[Wind Guardian Blessing] activated~! (Increase overall speed by 50% and grant auto-dodge effect. Duration: 10 seconds.)
Under the effect of [Wind Guardian Blessing]''s auto-dodge, Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure split into several afterimages as she agilely avoided all of the ambushing fox''s [Wind Cannon sts] without any difficulty!
Since she did not n to fight against the ambushing fox, Tang Li Xue used Yaya''s skill to restrict the movement of the ambushing fox while she nned to run away from this ce as fast as she could!
[Tempest Prison]~!
The ambushing fox trapped in the midst of the powerful swirling wind!
But Tang Li Xue never expected that the ambushing fox could actually disperse the [Tempest Prison] using its own wind control divine ability!
''This damn fox is really troublesome to deal with~! Sigh... Oh well, all the foxes who still survive until this second phase are certainly predator-level foxes. It is not strange that all of them are powerful and troublesome to deal with.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in frustration.
Tang Li Xue still had some effective ways to fight against opponents with earth, water, and me elemental divine abilities, but she would face a lot of difficulty against opponents with wind and lightning divine abilities since she currently could not enter [Perfect Assimtion] mode with her Phoenix of Pride.
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure turned into a silver sh leaving several afterimages as she quickly flew away from that ce with her full speed.
The ambushing fox still did not n to let Tang Li Xue go as it chased closely behind Tang Li Xue!
However, the distance between them slowly got farther and farther as Tang Li Xue''s speed was too fast while she was under the effect of [Wings of Freedom] buff.
Just when Tang Li Xue felt relieved that she finally could slowly get rid of this annoying ambushing fox...
SWOOOSSH~!
The ambushing fox who was still trying to chase after Tang Li Xue suddenly grabbed by a huge ck hand condensed from a mass of ck fog!
''It is already here!'' Tang Li Xue panickedly eximed in her heart.
The ambushing fox tried to struggle with all of its strength but to no avail.
The huge ck hand enjoyed the ambushing fox''s fiercest struggle as it slowly pulled the ambushing fox toward itself.
The more the ambushing fox struggles to free itself, the more rapidly its energy would be drained by the horrifying creature.
After the ambushing fox waspletely powerless, the horrifying creature shoved the limp ambushing fox into its bloody mouth filled with sharp teeth.
CRUNCH~! CRUNCH~! CRUNCH~! CRUNCH~!
The horrifying creature slowly chewed the limp ambushing fox until its blood dripped down from its mouth.
Tang Li Xue watched the gruesome scene through her [Extrasensory Perception].
She still could not see the horrifying creature''s form clearly with her [Extrasensory Perception], but even its faint blurry figure looked extremely dreadful and disgusting.
While that horrifying creature enjoyed its meal, Tang Li Xue had already flown away quite far at her full speed in [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya plus [Wings of Freedom] buff.
But who knew that the horrifying creature turned into a ck sh and flew swiftly in Tang Li Xue''s direction?!
''Impossible~! How the hell it could fly so fast?! No, it is already toote for me to run away from it!'' Tang Li Xue flusteredly thought.
Tang Li Xue hastily turned off her [Extrasensory Perception] as she realized that the horrifying creature was chasing after her might be because she ''stared'' at it!
However, turning off her [Extrasensory Perception] meant that she could no longer perceive any danger ahead of time, and she could also no longer keep track of the horrifying creature''s every movement.
Tang Li Xuended in the jungle and quickly hid under the bushes, then she held her breath, closed her eyes, and stopped movingpletely.
After Tang Li Xue pretended to be a dead branch under the dense bushes, the horrifying creature arrived there a few secondster.
Without her [Extrasensory Perception] and vision, Tang Li Xue unconsciously focused more on her sense of hearing and smell.
The unbearable pungent smell of blood rushed into her nasal cavity, and she almost coughed in reflex, but she quickly suppressed it.
Tang Li Xue felt strange since the foxes who got killed and eliminated from this treasure game should have turned into a group of white light and dissipated, then why the hell did this horrifying creature seem to have really eaten the ambushing fox earlier?!
Tang Li Xue really did not want to think about it in this current situation since it would make her fear of the horrifying creature grow, but her mindpletely worked against her will.
Drip... Drip... Drip... Drip... Drip...
The clear sound of dripping blood amplified her fear even further as her heart was beating more rapidly.
"All right, Xue''er... This is no longer funny. Come on, stop hiding ande out quickly so we can go back home and eat delicious meals~!" A gentle male sound called Tang Li Xue out with a worried tone.
The horrifying monster let out its usual trickery by using its hypnotic sounds to let Tang Li Xue hear the voice of her only closest rtive in her previous world, her big brother.
Tang Li Xue really missed her big brother''s gentle voice.
Hearing it made Tang Li Xue think she had returned to the time when her big brother was spoiling her in the hospital.
She almost wanted to jump out and give a tight hug to her big brother.
She wanted to tell him how much she missed him and worried about him.
''Ya~! Yayaya~!''
Tang Li Xue suddenly woke up from her daze when Yaya called her out through their mental connection!
''Damn it~! That was really too dangerous~! I let down my guard and almost fell into that monster''s dirty trick!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in fright.
Tang Li Xue suddenly realized that the hypnotic power from the horrifying monster''s sounds seemed to get a lot stronger than before!
Fortunately, Yaya woke her up on time, if not, she might have already jumped out excitedly and hugged that horrifying monster as she assumed it was her big brother.
''Don''t tell me that horrifying monster could get stronger every time it eats more targets?!'' Tang Li Xue identally deduced a more horrible thing about that monster in her mind.
Tang Li Xue really did not dare to think how strong this horrifying monster would be after it ate a few more foxes!
At that time, she might not even be able to wake up from the horrifying monster''s hypnosis even if Yaya shouted at her again.
Chapter 639: Tang Li Xues Vicious Plan!
This treasure game had just begun around half an hour ago and this horrifying monster might have only eaten two or three foxes until now, but its hypnotic power was already more than enough to affect Tang Li Xue who has Spirit stat more than 4,000.
If it was given a few hours of time and let it consume more than a dozen participating foxes...
Tang Li Xue really did not dare to imagine how powerful this horrifying monster would be at that time!
When Tang Li Xue was worried about that, the horrifying monster seemed to lose its patience and began to grope around randomly while kept trying to entice Tang Li Xue with its hypnotic sounds!
Rustle¡ Rustle¡ Rustle¡ Rustle¡ Rustle¡
Tang Li Xue''s heart almost jumped out of her furry chest when she heard the bushes around her make rustling sounds!
''Damn it~! It can even try to grope and search around randomly right now?! Is it also getting smarter by eating the other foxes?! What to do?! At this rate, it would surely find me soon!'' Tang Li Xue thought in panic.
Without her [Extrasensory Perception] and vision, the fear and horror hidden deep inside Tang Li Xue''s heart were amplified many times.
Moreover, she sensed that her stamina and energy got drained even more rapidly as the horrifying monster got closer and closer to her!
It made Tang Li Xue really want to run away as soon as possible from here!
But she gnashed her fangs and still decided to persist not to move even an inch until the end.
Rustle¡ Rustle¡ Rustle¡ Rustle¡
The rustling sound reached so close to her that Tang Li Xue could feel the vibrating bushes around her.
Just when Tang Li Xue felt that it was truly over right at this moment, and the terrifying monster would definitely find her right now...
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
There was a faint sound of an explosion dozens of miles away from their location!
The terrifying monster stopped groping at the dense bushes and quickly turned around as it stared excitedly in the direction where the faint sound of an explosion came from.
The terrifying monster immediately forgot about Tang Li Xue and impatiently headed toward there!
Tang Li Xue still did not know that the terrifying monster had already left that ce, so she could only resignedly wait there like a rabbit waiting to be cooked.
After fifteen minutes or so, Tang Li Xue finally could not hold on anymore and panted heavily.
Her stamina and energy had already beenpletely drained, and she was very exhausted right now.
She did not even have the strength to move her limbs anymore.
Without her realizing it, her [Divine Possession] mode had been automatically canceled because she had no more energy or stamina to support it, while Yaya had already fallen asleep inplete exhaustion inside her system''s pet space.
''What a horrible feeling is that?! My stamina and energy got drained, but I was not even allowed to move or fight back at all. I do not want to experience it anymore...'' Tang Li Xueined in her mind.
Despite herints, Tang Li Xue was very d that she was still lucky enough to survive.
But she was also worried that the horrifying monster woulde back here again after it ate a few fox snacks.
Well, she really wanted to get away from this ce quickly before that happened, but she was still too exhausted to move around right now!
After pondering for a while, Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs and decided to use herst resort.
With a single thought, Tang Li Xue summoned Little Loki from her system''s pet space.
Tang Li Xue exined briefly to Little Loki what had just happened to her through their mental connection and told Little Loki to drag her away quickly from this ce.
Little Loki rolled its eyes in disdain at Tang Li Xue.
Little Loki thought that Tang Li Xue''s behavior really did not make any sense at all.
Talking about the horrifying monster, which monster was more horrifying than the leader of Four Evil Fiend Beasts, Tao Tie?!
Talking about getting stronger by eating, draining, and devouring, which creatures could surpass Tao Tie?!
How could Tang Li Xue not be afraid of itself, Little Loki, as Tao Tie''s cub but she was really afraid of that failed counterfeit product?!
Ironically, Little Loki could not use its [Heaven''s Devour] in this Foxes Hunting Festival, if not for that, Little Loki might really search for that horrifying monster right now and teach it a lesson about the real devouring power!
If Tang Li Xue knew what Little Loki was thinking right now, she might amazed at how manly Little Loki was.
Despite its reluctance, Little Loki still obediently followed Tang Li Xue''s words...
Little Loki summoned out its two [Phantom Splitter] clones and the three of them quickly dragged Tang Li Xue in the opposite direction of where the explosion sound came from before.
Thankfully, both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki did not meet with any opponents anymore on their way this time.
Little Loki brought Tang Li Xue to hide inside a tree hole.
After resting for half an hour or so, Tang Li Xue regained enough stamina or energy to move around, but her energy only recovered by a few percent, so she was not ready to fight against any opponents yet.
While still hiding and resting inside a tree hole, Tang Li Xue stared intensely at Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitter] clones.
Looking at Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones, she suddenly thought a very vicious n...
What if they remotely controlled the two [Phantom Splitter] clones to attack the other foxes, and purposefully made loud fighting sounds to lure that horrifying monster toe and eat the other foxes?!
That n sounded extremely feasible and should be very effective, right?!
Well, it might be a very vicious n, but it was extremely safe and almost had no risk at all for both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki!
Unfortunately, her [Twin Moons] divine ability was still in cooldown, if not, she could certainly do it too with her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue told Little Loki to re-summon its two [Phantom Splitter] clones while she activated her [Mirror of the Moon] and tried to copy Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitter] skill.
Unfortunately, it did not work at all.
In this Foxes Hunting Festival, Tang Li Xue had already tried to use her [Mirror of the Moon] copy ability many times, and she realized that it actually has many limitations.
Meng Yue''s Aurora Creation Domain, Lei Qian''er''s extremely powerful lightning divine abilities, and even Yaya and Little Loki''s skills, her [Mirror of the Moon] could not copy any of them.
Maybe because Yaya''s skills depended on its race as a wind elemental spirit, and Little Loki''s skills depended on its devouring power as Tao Tie, so her [Mirror of the Moon] could not copy them.
Tang Li Xue shook her head in disappointment.
Then Tang Li Xue patted Little Loki''s tiny body with her paw, and put on a serious expression as she said with telepathy: "Little Loki, our only chance to win this treasure game might be on your shoulder~!"
Little Loki stared back at Tang Li Xue with a confused expression.
"Listen, Little Loki... If we do it like this..." Tang Li Xue began to exin her vicious n carefully to Little Loki with her telepathy.
After listening to Tang Li Xue''s vicious n, Little Loki looked at Tang Li Xue strangely.
Little Loki always thought Tang Li Xue was too naive, she was so immature and too soft on anyone for her own good.
But it seemed she somehow had grown more mature in this Foxes Hunting Festival!
Little Loki was quite happy to see Tang Li Xue''s growth, but it also worried that she would change too much andpletely lose her previous soft-hearted self.
This contradicting feeling made Little Loki extremely ufortable.
Tang Li Xue did not hear Little Loki''s reply and asked: "Little Loki? Do you understand? Do you need me to exin it again?"
Tang Li Xue thought that Little Loki was also afraid of that horrifying monster, so she quickly tried to reassure and encourage it: "Little Loki, everything will be all right. Even if our n fails, we can still quickly retreat before that horrifying monster chases after uster."
Little Loki absentmindedly nodded at Tang Li Xue but its mind was still upied with its previous worry.
Tang Li Xue caressed Little Loki''s soft tiny body gently with her paw for a while to reassure it.
Then Tang Li Xue decided to take a quick sleep to recover her energy faster while Little Loki guarded her.
After more than one hour of light sleep, Tang Li Xue''s energy had recovered more than a third, and she brought Little Loki to carry out her vicious n together.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn invisible, while Little Loki also used its skill to turn invisible.
Both of them began to look for the other foxes as the target of their vicious n!
Chapter 640: The Last Two Surviving Foxes!
Even though all of the participating foxes in this treasure game already knew the rules, but they would still certainly fight against each other every time they met with the other foxes.
It really could not be helped since they werepetitors with each other right now, but it also allowed the horrifying monster to find its target very easily.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The other two foxes were currently fighting each other fiercely somewhere inside the dense and dark jungle.
But suddenly, the two of them were caught by a pair of ck hands solidified from the mass of dark fog!
The horrifying monster appeared from the mass of dark fog and stuffed the two foxes into its mouth at once!
Crunch~! Crunch~! Crunch~!
The horrifying monster enjoyed its meal by munching them slowly inside its mouth filled with sharp teeth.
This was already the horrifying monster''s 5th and 6th meal.
It was growing at an astonishing rate in only these two hours or so.
The horrifying monster turned around and stared in a certain direction at the south jungle area while immediately gulping down the food in its mouth.
The horrifying monster turned back into a mass of dark fog and shed toward that direction with breakneck speed.
.....
Rustle~! Rustle~! Rustle~!
A metallic-colored fox was sprinting swiftly through the dense bushes with an anxious expression on its face.
Meanwhile, two small ck shadows shed right behind the metallic-colored fox, and theyunched a sudden attack toward it from behind!
[Scythe w Qi] x2~!
ng~! ng~!
Yes, those two small ck shadows were Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitter] clones.
Their [Scythe w Qi] attacks only managed to create nking sounds and some sparks after they struck the metallic-colored fox!
In fact, Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones had already attacked the metallic-colored fox a dozen times, but it still remained uninjured until now.
The metallic-colored fox actually did not want to fight against Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones since it knew from the treasure game'' rules that it only needed to survive until the end.
That was the reason why it kept running away from Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones until now, but it had already begun to lose its patience right now.
The metallic-colored fox gritted its fangs in annoyance as its steel-like body started to deform.
ng~! ng~! ng~!
A few pairs of sharp metal des appeared around its metallic body all of a sudden, and those sharp metal des shot out swiftly toward Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones!
The two [Phantom Splitter] clones had been prepared to face the metallic-colored fox''s counterattack anytime, and they used their [Instant Teleportation] to quickly dodge those sharp metal des!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]~!
When the metallic-colored fox nned to take this chance to run away farther from the two [Phantom Splitter] clones, the two [Phantom Splitter] clones unleashed their binding skill to momentarily lock the movement of the metallic-colored fox instead!
The two [Phantom Splitter] clones unleashed another wave of [Scythe w Qi] on the immobilized metallic-colored fox!
ng~! ng~! ng~! ng~!
Little Loki knew that its [Scythe w Qi] would not be enough to hurt the metallic-colored fox, but it kept using its [Scythe w Qi] to harass it!
Just when the metallic-colored fox broke out from the [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]''s locking effect and angrily red at Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones...
The dark sky above them suddenly covered with a huge mass of dark fog!
''It reallyes ~!'' Little Loki who hid quite far away with Tang Li Xue hastily informed her through their mental connection.
Tang Li Xue immediately urged Little Loki to un-summon its two [Phantom Splitter] clones, then she hastily took Little Loki into her system''s pet space to hide Little Loki''s presence from that horrifying monster.
Just like before, Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes and hid under the dense bushes without moving or breathing.
Meanwhile, the metallic-colored fox was running away from the mass of dark fog as fast as it could!
But no matter how fast the metallic-colored fox''s speed was, the mass of dark fog was clearly much faster!
A huge ck hand extended from inside the mass of dark fog and grabbed the metallic-colored fox''s entire body!
The metallic-colored fox''s body suddenly deformed under its own control and transformed into a metal liquid!
The metal liquid seeped out from the gap between the huge ck hand.
After all of the metal liquid dripped onto the ground, they merged back again into the metallic-colored fox!
If Tang Li Xue had seen this scene, she might questioned the metallic-colored fox if it was really a fox or the metal liquid robot sent from the far future like in the movie she had watched in her previous life.
Anyway, the horrifying monster did not care about that at all.
Despite its abominable appearance, the horrifying monster''s mind was quite simple like a newborn cub toying with its food.
The more its prey struggled to survive from it, the more excited it would be!
The metallic-colored fox kept trying to escape from the horrifying monster, but the horrifying monster kept catching it again and again.
It did not take long for the metallic-colored fox to bepletely exhausted under the energy-draining power of the horrifying monster, and it could no longer run or struggle to free itself from the horrifying monster''s grasp.
The horrifying monster excitedly threw the limp metallic-colored fox into its mouth filled with sharp teeth, and it slowly chewed the fruit of its hunt with a delightful expression.
After swallowing and digesting the metallic-colored fox, the horrifying monster still felt unsatisfied, and it remembered again that there were two more foods before.
The horrifying monster went back and searched Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones carefully by groping around the nearby trees and dense bushes.
After searching for ten minutes or so and still failing to find any trace of Little Loki, it finally lost its patience and left that ce in anger.
Tang Li Xue waited more patiently without moving or making any sound for one hour before she jumped out from the dense bushes.
''Well, it works well just like what I had expected~! I wonder how many more foxes participating in this treasure game? Oh, well... It does not really matter. Anyway, I just need to do this a few more times, and I will surely win this treasure game easily!'' Tang Li Xue thought excitedly.
But then Tang Li Xue suddenly realized something strange at the location where that horrifying monster appeared before...
The surrounding trees and dense bushes had actually all dried up as if the horrifying monster drained all of their life force!
''Damn it~! This horrifying monster had already gotten so much stronger?! Just how many victims has it already eaten at this point?!'' Tang Li Xue''s expression instantly turned grim.
Previously, Tang Li Xue clearly felt it herself that the horrifying monster was only able to drain her stamina and energy rapidly, but right now, it had already been able to drain the life force from all the living creatures in its surroundings!
''This is no joke! That monster is getting more and more terrifying at an unimaginable rate!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in horror.
Tang Li Xue started to hesitate about whether she should continue to execute her n or maybe she should just hide and wait until this treasure game is over...
Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head as she thought: ''No, the chance of being found by that horrifying monster is higher if I just hide and wait without doing anything.''
''It is already toote for me to get cold feet after going this far. I should just continue to execute my n since it gives me the highest chance of winning this treasure game!'' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart as she summoned out Little Loki again from her system''s pet space.
''Let''s go, Little Loki~! Onward to our next target~!'' Tang Li Xue encouraged Little Loki while caressing its tiny furry head gently.
Little Loki closed its eyes and purredfortably before it jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s back.
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki turned invisible with their divine abilities and skills, then the two of them searched for their next target together.
It seemed their luck had run out this time since they could no longer find any roaming foxes after looking at their trace for more than two hours.
But neither of them knew that the horrifying monster had already eaten almost all of the foxes who participated in this treasure game at that time!
The horrifying monster''s strength had already reached a devastating level!
Currently, there were only two foxes who still remained alive in this treasure game... Tang Li Xue and the previous hiding fox Tang Li Xue had met before she entered this treasure game.
Just like Tang Li Xue searched for the next target for her vicious n, the hiding fox was also looking at the next target for its assassination!
Unknowingly by both of them, this treasure game had entered the final stage.
Chapter 641: Stealth Battle!
''Tsk~! Two hours... I have already wasted two hours of my precious time, and I have not even seen any trace or shadow of the other foxes until now~!'' Tang Li Xueined displeasingly in her heart.
To be honest, she had already almost lost her patience, but there was really nothing she could do to quickly find the other surviving foxes in this treasure game.
It could not be helped since she clearly could not wantonly use her [Extrasensory Perception] to sense her surroundings as usual.
If she identally took a peek at that horrifying monster with her [Extrasensory Perception], then that horrifying monster would sense her too in an instant.
With the current horrifying monster''s devastating level of strength, it might be able to catch and eat Tang Li Xue as soon as it senses her!
Tang Li Xue did not dare to gamble, so she could only search the other foxes slowly step by step.
Of course, Little Loki was also diligently helping her using its two [Phantom Splitter] clones.
By spreading its two [Phantom Splitter] clones and searching in two different directions, Tang Li Xue thought they should be able to find the other foxes faster this way, but who knew that they still had not found any clue about the other foxes until now?!
Fortunately, after another one and a half hours passed, they finally found something...
No, to be more exact, that unknown fox was the one who found out something...
Little Loki stared at their far right side and informed Tang Li Xue through their mental connection that one of its two [Phantom Splitter] clones had gotten attacked by someone.
''Someone actuallyunched a sneak attack on one of your clones?! Is that true?! Finally... I thought the other foxes would hide and wait until the end like a coward turtle, but it seems there is still a reckless one here.'' Tang Li Xue eximed with an excited tone.
Little Loki rolled its eyes at Tang Li Xue, but it still controlled its [Phantom Splitter] clone to counterattack.
However, Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitter] clone actually could not find any trace of the one who sneak-attacked it just now!
Little Loki''s expression became a bit more solemn since its [Phantom Splitter] clone did not even see the silhouette of the sneak attacker!
Little Loki hastily notified Tang Li Xue about it.
Tang Li Xue frowned and thought deeply for a few moments before she replied to Little Loki with her telepathy: ''I see... From the way that fox attacked, it is quite identical to the sneaky ck fox we met before we entered this treasure game.''
Tang Li Xue muttered again in her heart with a frustrated tone: ''If it is really that sneaky ck fox, then it would be a lot more troublesome...''
Strangely, Little Loki could no longer find that sneaky ck fox using its extremely sharp sense of smell like before.
Previously, Tang Li Xue also could not find the sneaky ck fox even after she focused on her [Extrasensory Perception] to detect it, then she forcefully broke its stealth divine ability with her [Spirit Shock] in the end.
''Anyway, try to make it busy for a while and let the fighting sound bigger to attract the attention of the horrifying monster.'' Tang Li Xue instructed Little Loki.
Little Loki nodded at Tang Li Xue as it controlled its two [Phantom Splitter] clones carefully.
.....
Meanwhile, Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones were currently fighting with an invisible fox!
[Shadow Whip]~!
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
Both [Phantom Splitter] clones could not even sense anything, but they suddenly got hit heavily by something.
Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones were thrown off dozens of meters and crashed onto several huge trees until all of those trees copsed.
The figures of two [Phantom Splitter] clones became blurry for a few moments, but they quickly recovered back to normal.
Since Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones still did not have any good way to counter the invisible sneaky ck fox, so they could only try to use their skills one by one and see if they worked.
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]~!
The surrounding scene seemed to stand still in that instant as if someone was pressing a pause button.
Since Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones could not find the hiding sneaky ck fox, they decided to just lock the movement of everything around them.
[sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi] x2~!
PUUFFF~! PUUFFF~! PUUFFF~!
All the surrounding tall trees, dense bushes, and grasses were cut cleanly by the two [Phantom Splitter] clones'' simultaneous attacks!
But despite all of their effort, they still failed to cancel the hiding sneaky fox''s strange stealth divine ability!
After their [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] lost its effect, the sneaky ck fox unleashed another sneak attack on them once again.
[Shadow Whip]~!
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones did not even know when and where the sneak attack woulde, so they could not dodge it on time with their [Instant teleportation]!
The sneaky ck fox''s [Shadow Whip] mercilessly struck their tiny furry bodies again and again until their bodies were almost torn apart and dispersed.
But Little Loki quickly stabilized them before its two [Phantom Splitter] clones could disperse.
Little Loki frowned deeper as it felt that its two [Phantom Splitter] clones could not hold on for much longer until the horrifying monster came, so it must do something fast.
Then Little Loki suddenly recalled the new skill it got after consuming the dried lotus seed it got from the previous treasure game.
Little Loki grimaced as its heart filled with unwillingness.
Actually, Little Loki really did not want to use this skill, but it seemed it had no other choice right now.
Little Loki shook its tiny furry head while convincing itself that the skill was extremely useful as long as it did not mind the origin of that skill...
Just when the hiding sneaky fox unleashed another [Shadow Whip] attack on the two [Phantom Splitter] clones, they suddenly closed their eyes.
Before the [Shadow Whip] could hit them, their tiny furry figure shone with blinding golden light all of a sudden!
The blinding golden light felt holy and warm.
The sound of Sanskrit prayer spread around, and it got louder and louder echoing in the consciousness of the hiding sneaky ck fox!
After only a few seconds, the hiding sneaky ck fox could not hold on anymore. It not only canceled its stealth divine ability and revealed its form, but it even howled in pain while holding its head.
Tang Li Xue could not see the hiding sneaky ck fox, but the blinding golden light was extremely eye-catching, and she could see it clearly from afar.
''What the hell is that~?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
Little Loki immediately exined to Tang Li Xue that it was its new skill...
[Buddha''s Purification Light]~!
The effect of this skill was actually extremely good.
Not only it could reveal and force out any invisible creatures in a certain radius with its divine light, but it also deals significant spirit damage to non-Buddhist believers.
But Little Loki as an Evil Fiend Beast extremely despised righteous skill such as this [Buddha''s Purification Light].
Tang Li Xue giggled at Little Loki who showed a disgusted expression on its cute face.
''All right, it is really a good job, Little Loki~ I will surely treat you to eat many delicious foods after wee backter.'' Tang Li Xue patted Little Loki''s head whileforting it.
Little Loki humphed arrogantly and acted as if it did not care, but its tail waggled excitedly.
Tang Li Xue''s guilty expression turned into a solemn one when she saw an enormous dark foge in their direction with unbelievable speed.
''Here ites~!'' Tang Li Xue murmured in her heart.
Tang Li Xue hastily stopped staring at the enormous dark fog because she was afraid that the horrifying monster would be able to sense her.
''Let''s go, Little Loki~! Quickly take back all of your [Phantom Splitter] Clones~!'' Tang Li Xue immediately urged Little Loki.
After Little Loki un-summoned its two [Phantom Splitter] Clones, Tang Li Xue swiftly took Little Loki into her system''s pet space, so the horrifying monster would not be able to sense Little Loki anymore.
But just when Tang Li Xue wanted to hide under the dense bushes as she had done before, all of the surrounding trees, grasses, and bushes withered in an instant, and they turned into dust!
Her surrounding scene turned into barrennd in only a few moments!
There was no more ce for her to hide anymore at this time!
Meanwhile, the horrifying monster had already caught the sneaky ck fox.
The sneaky ck fox wanted to use its divine abilities to escape from the horrifying monster, but its stamina and energy instantly sucked dry by the horrifying monster in only a few breaths!
The horrifying monster stuffed the powerless sneaky ck fox into its mouth and chewed it slowly.
Then the horrifying monster stared at Tang Li Xue with its pair of crimson eyes and grinned delightfully at Tang Li Xue with a mouth full of blood.
Tang Li Xue shuddered in panic and fright at the horrifying monster''s evil grin as if it were staring at a delicious delicacy.
Tang Li Xue swiftly turned around and activated her [Wings of Freedom] buff, then she executed her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to run as fast as she could from there!
But how could she possibly run faster than the horrifying monster who had already grown to an unimaginable level?!
Chapter 642: Decreasing Stat!
The horrifying monster caught up with Tang Li Xue in less than one second and grabbed her silver furry figure with its ck hand!
Tang Li Xue immediately wanted to use [Shadow sh] to get out of the horrifying monster''s grasp, but she instantly realized that her stamina and energy were drained very rapidly by the horrifying monster!
Before she could do anything, her stamina and energy had already been sucked dry by the horrifying monster!
"Jie Jie Jie Jie Jie~!" The horrifying monsterughed evilly in delight as it brought Tang Li Xue closer and opened its bloody mouth filled with jagged sharp teeth.
Just when Tang Li Xue thought that she was really done this time, her silver furry figure suddenly disappeared right after the horrifying monster threw her into its mouth.
.....
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes in resignation.
After more than ten seconds, she reluctantly opened her topaz blue eyes slowly when the painful feeling did note as she thought it would.
Tang Li Xue no longer saw the horrifying monster, but she saw a treasure box in front of her instead.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief while murmuring in a confused tone: "So, I have already won the treasure game just like that?"
Even though thest scene was extremely dangerous and nerve-wracking that her heart almost jumped out of her mouth, but honestly, she did not do much in that treasure game since the one who contributed the most was Little Loki.
After calming down her panicked mood, Tang Li Xue tried to stand up only to find that she was too exhausted to even move.
That horrifying monster surely sucked all of her vitality energy and spiritual energy until dry.
Tang Li Xue was really embarrassed, but she had no choice other than to depend on Little Loki again this time.
Tang Li Xue summoned Little Loki out of her system''s pet space with a single thought, and Little Loki appeared right in front of her.
''Little Loki, I am counting on you again~!'' Tang Li Xue blushed slightly as she sent her thoughts to Little Loki.
Little Loki rolled its eyes mockingly at thepletely exhausted Tang Li Xue, but it still summoned out its two [Phantom Splitter] clones in the end and told them to drag Tang Li Xue away from this ce.
Meanwhile, Little Loki itself grabbed the treasure box and quickly caught up with them from behind.
Luckily, they had not met with the other foxes on their way, or their situation might be quite dangerous since Tang Li Xue did not even have any energy left to activate her [Ethereal Form] to hide herself or defend herself so Little Loki must fight alone while protecting the powerless Tang Li Xue.
That also might be because the number of participating foxes had decreased so much after the Foxes Hunting Festival reached the second phase.
Little Loki dragged Tang Li Xue to hide inside the small cave a hundred miles away from the previous location.
The small cave was hidden behind the bushes, so Little Loki thought it should be a quite safe hiding ce.
After Tang Li Xue was brought into the hidden cave, she finally could not hold on anymore and immediately fell asleep in great exhaustion.
Little Loki sighed helplessly at the sleeping Tang Li Xue and decided to silently guard right by her side until she was awake.
It might be because she was very nervous and always in a turbulent mood in the previous treasure game, Tang Li Xue fell asleep very soundly until the next day.
After waking up, Tang Li Xue felt extremely refreshed and energetic.
She also found a piece of information injected into her mind after she won the previous treasure game.
That horrifying monster was actually a real one, and it really existed in this Immortal World.
That horrifying monster''s name was Undead Spectre.
From the name alone everyone could tell that the horrifying monster was the creature from the Undead Race.
Of course, Undead Spectre could not be unlimitedly stronger by eating their opponents like Tao Tie.
The growth limit of their strength could only reach True Spirit Beast level, and they were not something Beast Lord Level like them could handle.
So, the piece of information in Tang Li Xue''s mind reminded her that all the foxes below True Spirit Beast level better hide themselves fast when they saw any Undead Spectre if they did not want to die.
It could be said that the previous treasure game was a simtion to avoid or hide from the Undead Spectre.
"Undead Spectre, huh... To think such a horrible monster really exists in the Central Continent, and the foxes living there could identally meet them at any time... Well, maybe I should evolve into True Spirit Beast first before I go to the Central Continentter." Tang Li Xue muttered in a frightened tone while frowning deeply.
"Nyaw~!"
Little Loki''s sound woke Tang Li Xue from her thoughts, and she saw Little Loki push a treasure box to her.
Tang Li Xue blushed in embarrassment when Little Loki pushed the treasure box to her.
"Err... Little Loki, you have contributed the most in the previous treasure game, so this treasure box should be yours." Tang Li Xue said as she pushed the treasure box back to Little Loki.
But Little Loki did not think so.
Little Loki thought it could get stronger easily without limit by devouring anything, so it was such a waste for it to eat such a precious treasure.
It would be best for Tang Li Xue to eat them instead, so she could get stronger quickly, but if there were some treasures, items, or anything she could not useter, she could give them to it as a meal.
Tang Li Xue pondered Little Loki''s statement and thought that it really made sense.
Little Loki''sbat power might look much weaker in this Foxes Hunting Festival, but it was because Little Loki could not freely use its [Heaven''s Devour].
If Little Loki could use its [Heaven''s Devour] freely without any restriction, Tang Li Xue believed even the Undead Spectre in the previous treasure game would not be its opponent!
Even the Apex Predator-level foxes and Meng Yue... Well, forget about them...
Tang Li Xue agreed and took the treasure box from Little Loki.
When Tang Li Xue opened the treasure box, she found a pitch ck small fruit lying inside the treasure box.
The fruit was only as big as a cherry, but the pitch-ck made it really unappetizing. Especially, the dark fog emitted by the fruit made it look ominous.
"Err... I suddenly feel full, so Little Loki, I think you can just eat this fruit for me." Tang Li Xue smiled kindly as she pushed the treasure box back to Little Loki.
Little Loki red impatiently at Tang Li Xue and angrily pushed the treasure box toward her while muttering: "Meow Nyaww Mew Nyao~! (Stop acting like a kid and eat it~!)"
"No, no, no, no... Look at this pitch-ck color~! Look at its ominous aura~! It really resembles you very much~! This fruit is clearly fated for you~!" Tang Li Xue tried to persuade Little Loki.
Tang Li Xue and Little Loki kept pushing away the treasure box toward each other for a while until Little Lokipletely lost its patience and used [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] on Tang Li Xue.
When all of Tang Li Xue''s senses and movements were locked by [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation], Little Loki took the pitch-ck ominous fruit with its paws and forcefully shoved it into Tang Li Xue''s mouth.
After she was released from the [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]''s effect, Tang Li Xue coughed violently as she felt her mouth and throat burning with acid.
*Ding!
[You had consumed Illusory Realm Fruit.]
[Your Strength, Agility, and Spirit stats increased by 500.]
[Your Toughness stat decreased by 300.]
[You have unlocked Spiritualist Battle Style and obtained [Eyes of Illusion] skill!]
[You have awakened (High-Resistance to Illusion) divine ability!]
Strength: 4,600 --> 5,000
Agility: 3,600 --> 4,100
Toughness: 5,000 --> 4,700
Spirit: 4,200 --> 4,700
*Ding!
[Your Strength stat has reached the maximum limit, and it can no longer be increased anymore. Please evolve to a higher-grade beast as soon as possible to increase the maximum limit of all stats.]
[The excessive Strength stat had already been automatically converted into EXP!]
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Tang Li Xue was very surprised that she actually unlocked another skill from the Spiritualist Battle Style, and she even awakened a new divine ability, [High-Resistance to Illusion].
With this [Eyes of Illusion] skill, she could make her opponent see some illusion through eye contact.
While the [High-Resistance to Illusion]''s effect was just like its name, this divine ability granted high resistance to all illusion-types divine abilities and skills.
So, unless Tang Li Xue''s opponents have several times higher Spirit stat than her, their illusion-types divine abilities or skills would not be effective on Tang Li Xue.
But what made Tang Li Xue very unhappy was that her Toughness stat had actually decreased by 300!
"What the hell?! How could my stats decrease instead after consuming precious treasure?!" Tang Li Xue jumped andined angrily.
''System~! Wake up quickly and give me an exnation about this~!'' Tang Li Xue called impatiently in her mind.
Chapter 643: Mysterious Fox Girl Appeared!
[Host, please be patient. There are so many kinds of precious treasures and cultivation resources in this world, so it is not strange if any of them will increase some of your stats while decreasing the other stats.]
Tang Li Xue was instantly dumbfounded.
After pondering and frowning deeply for a while, Tang Li Xue muttered with a serious expression: "What the hell?! So, there are really precious treasures with the effect of decreasing stats?! Those should not be called precious treasures, right? They should be called acute poisons instead!"
[That is not true. Those types of precious treasures might have a few adverse effects, but they also grant a lot more beneficial effects.]
[The Illusory Realm Fruit that the Host just ate is a good example. Although it decreased Host''s Toughness stat by 300, but it increased Host''s other stats and even granted Host two new abilities.]
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding, but she still felt unhappy because of it.
She already wasted 300 Toughness stat when she consumed the [Spirit Essense Flower] she got after winning the seventh treasure game, but now, her Toughness stat decreased by 300 after consuming this [Illusory Realm Fruit].
Did it mean she had already wasted 600 stat points just like that?!
No, since her Strength had also reached the limit, it meant she had wasted 700 stat points in total!
Every time Tang Li Xue leveled up, she would obtain +100 stat points...
Losing 700 stat points was the same as losing 7 levels for Tang Li Xue!
So, how could she not feel heartache because of it?!
Little Loki saw Tang Li Xue suddenly be unspirited, so it approached her and asked in worry: "Meeooow~?"
Tang Li Xue sighed and smiled at Little Loki.
She shook her head while patting Little Loki''s tiny furry head with her paw and replying: "I am all right. Well... Technically, I may have lost something, but I also get more benefits..."
Tang Li Xue jumped down from the tree hole while saying to Little Loki: "Let''s go, Little Loki~! Rather than feeling down and regretting what I lost, it would be much better if I won more treasure games and obtained more precious treasures to make up for it~!"
Little Loki felt a bit relieved when it saw Tang Li Xue regain her spirit again.
Little Loki quickly jumped down from the tree hole and caught up with Tang Li Xue.
After Little Loki jumped onto her back, Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn herself invisible.
Little Loki also activated its stealth skill to turn invisible too.
Both of them dashed toward the nearest pir of golden light located on their floating ind.
Unfortunately, before they could reach it, the pir of golden light had already vanished.
It seems the treasure game inside that pir of golden light had already started before Tang Li Xue could participate.
Tang Li Xue felt really disappointed, but there was really nothing she could do about it.
When Tang Li Xue tried to look at the other pir of golden light on their floating ind, she could not find any of it anymore.
''Tsk~! So, there would be only one pir of golden light in each floating ind?! Once the treasure game started and that pir of golden light had vanished, I must wait until that treasure game finished before the other pir of golden light would be spawned?!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in displeasure while deducing the pattern in her mind.
Tang Li Xue really did not want to waste her time waiting until that treasure game finished, so she could only find the other pir of golden light located on another floating ind.
The other floating inds were at different heights and distances from the floating ind where Tang Li Xue was currently located, so Tang Li Xue could only fly if she wanted to reach them.
Tang Li Xue did not want to waste her [Wings of Freedom] buff since she nned to reserve it for the next treasure game, so she could only condense a flying disc with her [Energy Maniption] and ride on it to fly to the other floating ind.
.....
Just as Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were riding on the flying disc and heading to another floating ind, a menacing presence suddenly came to the floating ind that Tang Li Xue had just left.
A fox girl with straight long ck hairnded gracefully on the floating ind.
Different from the other fox girls who liked to wear pretty Hanfu dresses, this fox girl was wearing a tight ck martial arts outfit with a long skirt.
Even though this fox girl with straight long ck hair was amazingly beautiful, but the dark gloomy aura emitted around her body struck fear and horror in anyone who saw her.
If Tang Li Xue was here, she could certainly tell that this fox girl with straight long ck hair was an Apex Predator-level fox in one nce, since all Apex Predator-level foxes would surely deliberately take human form.
The fox girl with straight long ck hair slowly opened her pair ofpletely ck eyes without any white part or light reflected on them as if her stare could swallow anyone''s soul.
"My vassal on this ind just died yesterday. What a disappointing trash~!" The ck-haired girl muttered with azy tone.
The ck-haired girl''s expression turned murderous cold as she continued to say: "But even though it is trash, it is still my former vassal after all. If I had not done anything to avenge it, the others would look down on me. Troublesome~!"
At this moment, the slender body of the fox girl with straight long ck hair radiated a ck light that turned day into night in an instant.
[Night Shadow Domain]~!
Unfortunately, the ck-haired girl failed to find any fox or living creature on that floating ind even after she opened her [Night Shadow Domain].
"Hm~?! Is there no one here anymore? I see, so they have already participated in another treasure game..." The ck-haired girl immediately guessed.
But it was clearly impossible for the ck-haired girl to waste her precious time waiting here until the treasure game finished just to take revenge for a mere worthless vassal.
"Sigh... This is really troublesome~!" The ck-haired girl sighedzily.
Then the ck-haired girl suddenly raised her slender hand and pressed it down.
The ck light curtain covered the entire floating ind and rapidly shrank in that instant!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The ck light curtain kept shrinking until it formed a palm-sized ck ball!
The scene was so shocking because that floating ind had disappeared!
Yes, the floating ind was actually sealed inside that palm-sized ck ball!
The palm-sized ck ball flew to the ck-haired girl, and she leisurely caught it.
Then the ck-haired girl flew back swiftly toward the direction where she hade from before.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue had already flown toward the other floating ind at this time... If not, she might have been trapped inside the palm-sized ck ball along with the previous floating ind!
¡..
The other Apex Predator-level foxes already sensed what the ck-haired girl had just done, but many of them did not really care about it since their vassals were not on that floating ind.
It would be apletely different matter if there were vassals from the other Apex Predator-level foxes on that floating ind.
It meant that the ck-haired girl just provoked the other Apex Predator-level foxes, and they might fight against each other because of it.
But in fact, the ck-haired girl did not even bother to check that far, and she did not even care about it at all.
She just sealed the whole floating ind with her [Night Shadow Domain], and she did not even think that there might be vassals from the other Apex Predator-level foxes participating in that floating ind''s treasure game.
It could be seen that the ck-haired girl should have a lot of confidence in her own strength even against the other Apex Predator-level foxes.
Lei Qian''er pped her hands in awe as she eximed in amazement: "Hooo~! What a unique and powerful domain~! I have never seen her at the previous Foxes Hunting Festival. Is she a new Apex-Predator Fox?"
The short wavy-haired girl, Bai Huohuo, thought for a while and replied: "I have never seen an Apex-Predator Fox like her in our Tu Shan Faction, so she should be from Qing Qiu Faction."
Lei Qian''er smiled even more excitedly while licking her pink lips seductively and muttering: "Really? Then I am really looking forward to our battle against them~!"
Bai Huohuo rolled her sacred-looking white eyes and said: "You better pray that girl would not be as troublesome as Meng Yue or we might really be in big trouble!"
Lei Qian''erughed at Bai Huohuo''s statement while saying: "Pfft... Ahahaha~! Do you think Heaven''s Favored Child is that easy to reach? Raising and nurturing one Heaven''s Favored Child should have already consumed so much of our Fox Race''s resources, if there are two, our Fox Race might really go bankrupt soon."
Bai Huohuo shook her head and thought that Lei Qian''er''s words made sense.
But somehow her hunch said that this ck-haired girl was far from simple.
Chapter 644: Ninth Treasure Game Start!
Even though Bai Huohuo knew her hunch as the vessel of Heavenly Will Spirits, [me of Humility], should be mostly on point, but she still could not guess the strangeness of the ck-haired fox girl.
Bai Huohuo closed her sacred white eyes and decided to forget it for now. She still has many important things to do other than brooding about the origin of the ck-haired fox girl.
.....
The Apex Predator Level foxes from Tu Shan Faction did not know that even the other Apex Predator Level foxes from Qing Qiu Faction were actually not that fond of the ck-haired fox girl.
The red-haired sexy fox girl clicked her tongue in displeasure when she sensed the ck-haired fox girl showing off her strength and said from the floating ind where she was currently located: "Tsk~! What a repulsive abominable creature!"
Even the expression of the cheerful and friendly Meng Yue turned colder as she muttered with a tone filled with disappointment: "So, she is the fruit of that abomination experimental project..."
"Sigh, so having one Heaven''s Favored Child like me is not enough to satisfy Qing Qiu Faction''s higher-ups, huh? I hope the higher-ups did not make the wrong decision about this." Meng Yue whispered before she turned around and continued on her way to search for other interesting ymates.
It could faintly be seen that the ck-haired fox girl was different from the other Apex Predator Level foxes in the Qing Qiu Faction.
The foxes in Qing Qiu Faction might be geniuses, but many of their ideas were too radical to be epted by everyone.
If the Tu Shan Faction were the foxes with a normal way of thinking who wanted to develop steady step by step, then the Qing Qiu Faction were a bunch of mad foxes who wanted to go against the sky in one step.
So, it was not strange that the foxes in Tu Shan Faction did not get along well with the foxes in Qing Qiu Faction, and they went on separate ways.
.....
Of course, whether it was the Tu Shan Faction or the Qing Qiu Faction, both of them had nothing to do with Tang Li Xue at this point.
Tang Li Xue had alreadynded on the other floating ind near the previous floating ind along with Little Loki.
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki also secretly witnessed the ck-haired fox girl show her might and seal the entire floating ind in one move.
"Damn it~! That was a really close one~! If we decided to wait until the new pir of golden light spawned on that floating ind, we might have already been sealed by that ck-haired fox girl too~!" Tang Li Xue murmured with a trembling voice as she wiped the non-existent cold sweat on her furry forehead with her paw.
Little Loki frowned a bit as it informed Tang Li Xue: "Meoow Mew Nyaww~! (That girl smells almost the same as the previous ck fox~!)"
Tang Li Xue nodded and replied: "I see... So, that ck-haired fox girl is the master of the ck fox, and she makes a move to avenge the ck fox''s death."
Tang Li Xue felt lucky that the ck-haired fox girl did not have any clue about the ck fox''s death.
If the ck-haired fox girl knew that the ck fox died because of Tang Li Xue''s vicious scheme and Little Loki''s trick, she might decide to hunt down both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki.
Tang Li Xue jumped down from the cliff while shouting at Little Loki: "Let''s go, Little Loki~! We better move on before that terrifying fox girl notices us~!"
Little Loki hastily caught up with Tang Li Xue, but it actually faintly sensed the familiar aura from that ck-haired fox girl.
Yes, the abominable aura emitted by that ck-haired fox girl actually resembles the horrifying monster in the previous treasure game.
''Was there any connection between them?'' Little Loki thought silently in its heart.
Little Loki shook its tiny furry head as it thought that was not their business, so it decided to not delve further into it anymore.
After jumping down the cliff and crossing the river, they finally saw the pir of golden light on this floating ind.
"Thankfully, the treasure game on this floating ind has not started yet, or we would need to head to another floating ind again~!" Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
This time, Tang Li Xue no longer hesitated and immediately activated [Wings of Freedom] buff.
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki to fly to the pir of golden light with breakneck speed!
But just like in the previous treasure games, there was actually someone whounched an ambush attack on Tang Li Xue right before she almost reached the pir of golden light!
Countless rattans rushed toward the sky and bound Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure all of a sudden who was flying so fast on the sky!
Even Tang Li Xue in [Wings of Freedom]''s buff effect did not have any time to react at all!
"This damn bast*rd~!" Tang Li Xue cursed in anger as she tried to struggle with all of her strength to free herself from the rattan''s bind.
However, Little Loki who sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head had already reacted faster and used its [Scythe w Qi] to cut all the rattans to free Tang Li Xue.
The wood-controlling fox did not n to let Tang Li Xue go that easily!
The countless rattansbined into several dozens of wooden sharp spears under its control, and they stabbed at Tang Li Xue from all directions!
Tang Li Xue hastily summoned out a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] plus a giant broadsword condensed with [Energy Maniption]~!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
A pair of [Sun Dragon ws] held the giant broadsword tightly and spun around wildly with great force!
The several dozen wooden sharp spears were either getting cut or burned by the pair of [Sun Dragon ws]''s Repelling Spins attack!
Even though Tang Li Xue seemed to hold an advantage in this battle, but she did not want to waste too much of her time fighting against this wood-controlling fox.
Tang Li Xue quickly put Little Loki into her System''s pet space and flew swiftly into the pir of the golden light before the wood-controlling fox couldunch another attack on her!
.....
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes and found herself locked up inside a metal cage.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently in displeasure as her hunch told her that this might be another troublesome treasure game.
As usual, there was a countdown timer on the wall behind her.
[2733]...
[2732]...
[2731]...
[2730]...
"So, the treasure game will begin in around 45 minutes, huh..." Tang Li Xue muttered as she took out Little Loki and Yaya from her system''s pet space.
Yayazily stretched her body since she had just woken up from deep sleep, then she flew toward Tang Li Xue and gave Tang Li Xue a lot of morning kisses... Well, although it was not morning anymore right now.
Tang Li Xue felt ticklish andughed as she patted at Yaya''s tiny head with her paw.
Time passed very quickly while Tang Li Xue yed around and teased Yaya and Little Loki.
After the countdown timer reached zero, a string of words about the rules of the current treasure game appeared on the wall.
[Our Fox n might not be the strongest beast, but we should have high survivability and always be able to adapt in any situation.]
[As the most favorite pet for the human race because of our unmatched elegance and beauty, we might get caught at any time by humans.]
[Your task right now is to escape before they can bring you into the imperial pce.]
[The first fox who sessfully got out from the human city will be the winner of this treasure game.]
[The Human Race might be detestable and untrustworthy, but they are not weak! Never look down on them in any situation or you will be the unlucky one! Good luck, fox cubs~!]
After reading the current treasure game''s rules, Tang Li Xue muttered while thinking: "The rules are notplicated. In short, I only need to escape from this cage before they bring me into the imperial pce. I will win the treasure game after I get out of this city safely."
With her sharp sense of hearing, Tang Li Xue judged that they were actually inside the carriage, and this carriage should be heading to the imperial pce right now.
So, she must escape from here before this carriage reaches the imperial pce!
But Tang Li Xue immediately realized a fatal problem!
This metal cage actually sealed her vitality energy, so she could not use any of her divine abilities!
"What a troublesome setting is this~!" Tang Li Xue muttered while taking a deep breath to calm down.
While she tried to think of a way to get out of this sealing cage...
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue suddenly heard an explosion from outside the carriage!
Chapter 645: Chaotic Escape!
"Watch out~! Some vicious foxes just escaped from their cages~!"
"What?! Do you all want to get executed?! Quickly catch all of them back right now~! Your Majesty has paid a lot of money to buy these foxes, so you better find and catch them back if you all do not want to die~!"
"We got it, Captain~!"
Tang Li Xue secretly heard the loudmotion from outside her carriage.
"I see... So, the other foxes'' starting point is the same as me." Tang Li Xue murmured her deduction.
When Tang Li Xue was doing her thing, who knew that Little Loki and Yaya had already slipped out of the cage without any difficulty at all?!
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched as she asked with a strange tone: "How the hell you two can get out from here so easily?!"
Both Yaya and Little Loki replied that they actually just jumped out through the gap of the cage.
"All right, so a small size also has its own advantage." Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding.
Of course, Tang Li Xue could not imitate their way to escape from this metal cage since her silver furry figure was several times bigger than their tiny cub body.
Tang Li Xue tried to use [Moon Shattering Strike] on the cage, but she failed to leave even a small dent in it.
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
While Tang Li Xue attempted to break free from her cage, another batch of foxes had already escaped from their cages again.
"Damn it~! This is not good~! It would be extremely bad if I were to be thest one to escape from here! All of those royal guards would certainly focus on chasing after me alone~!" Tang Li Xue said with a desperate tone.
Moreover, the strength of those royal guards should not be weak, since this was the treasure game of the second phase of the Foxes Hunting Festival.
Little Loki rolled its eyes impatiently as it swung its tiny ws toward the metal cage!
[Scythe w Qi]~!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
The metal cage that gave Tang Li Xue a lot of headaches was cut by Little Loki''s [Scythe w Qi] to pieces in an instant!
Tang Li Xue was dumbfounded in shock by Little Loki''s move.
This [Scythe w Qi] was the skill Little Loki obtained after devouring the false spirit beast, Sapphire Wasp Queen, who was suppressed in the Inheritance Ground Tablet, so the power was undoubtedly much more powerful than others.
It was not really surprising that the [Scythe w Qi] could easily cut the metal cage like cutting tofu.
Tang Li Xue delightedly jumped out from the broken metal cage and gently patted Little Loki''s head while praising it: "Woah, as I expected from my most dependable Little Loki~!"
"Nyaaa~!" Little Loki still put smug act, but its tail swung back and forth excitedly.
Yaya puffed her cheek and pouted in envy.
Unfortunately, this was not the right time for Tang Li Xue tofort the sulking Yaya as she hastily cut the carriage''s locked door open with [Moonlight sh].
Then Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn herself invisible, while Little Loki and Yaya who already sat on Tang Li Xue''s back also used their respective stealth skill to turn themselves invisible.
Tang Li Xue thought that the rest of this treasure game should be a piece of cake for her since she has [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], but she never expected that she would instantly get noticed just after she jumped out from the carriage!
"Another fox escape here~! Catch it quickly~!" The royal guard in silver armor shouted thepass treasure in his hand reacted wildly.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in annoyance, and she immediately decided to enter [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya.
Yaya also turned into a sh of green light and merged into Tang Li Xue''s body.
*Ding!
[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]
Tang Li Xue used Yaya''s speed buff on herself to increase her speed even further.
*Ding!
[Wind Guardian Blessing] activated! (Increase overall speed by 50% and add auto-dodge effect. Duration: 10 seconds.)
But the movement of those royal guards was not slow!
More than a dozen of them had already rushed toward Tang Li Xue and threw [Beast Sealing Net] on Tang Li Xue!
That kind of treasure weapon would instantly spread out and auto-lock the target!
It clearly could not be dodged, so Tang Li Xue unleashed [Cyclone Storm] to counter it before the [Beast Sealing Net] could capture and bind her!
BWOOOOOOSSSHH~!
A huge pir of hurricane condensed from countless dancing sharp wind des was flying swiftly toward those royal guards!
Even their [Beast Sealing Nets] were blown away by the violent [Cyclone Storm]!
Contrary to Tang Li Xue''s expectation, the royal guards in silver armor did not get flustered or panic at all when they saw such violent [Cyclone Storm].
They swiftly lined up together, and a mysterious formation beneath their feet was lit up with crimson light!
They unsheathed the silver saber on their waist at the same time and stabbed the silver saber in their grasp toward the violent [Cyclone Storm] in unison!
Their ferocious saber Qi merged into one, and the mysterious crimson formation under their feet amplified it by many folds!
BBBAAAAAANNNNG~!
The violent [Cyclone Storm] was actually cut apart in one stab, and it dispersed almost instantly!
Tang Li Xue who had already run away as fast as she could from there with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step] witnessed all of it from a distance.
"I knew it would not be that easy, but what the hell... there is clearly something wrong with these people, right?! Even a bunch of mere normal soldiers are already that strong~!" Tang Li Xue angrilyined.
But the surprise was not over yet...
Each of those royal guards in silver armor took out a talisman from their spatial ring and stuck it onto their body.
Their body was covered with a dim golden light, and they were instantly flying to chase after Tang Li Xue with breakneck speed!
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in disbelief.
She was already in [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya, so her current speed should be already extremely high!
How could those royal guards in silver armor actually match her speed by only using a mere talisman?!
Tang Li Xue really wanted to curse the one who made this treasure game very much~!
Despite her displeasure andint, Tang Li Xue still did not reduce her flying speed at all, especially since those royal guards in silver armor kept chasing behind her without any intention of giving up.
BBAAAAAAAAANNGG~!
Tang Li Xue put all of her attention on the royal guards in silver armor who were chasing after her from behind, but she actually got attacked by someone from her right side!
Tang Li Xue was thrown off and spun uncontrobly in mid-air while groaning in pain.
Even Little Loki was blown away and got separated from Tang Li Xue because of the sudden attack out of nowhere.
Thankfully, Little Loki acted quickly and used its [Instant Teleportation] to return to Tang Li Xue''s back, then it hugged her back tightly so it would not get separated from her again.
With her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue sensed the one who was attacking her just now, and it was actually a khaki-colored fox!
Well, what that khaki-colored fox was doing was not exactly wrong since they werepetitors in this treasure game...
But Tang Li Xue became extremely angry at the khaki-colored fox since it dared to attack her in a critical situation like now!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her turbulent mood.
"All right, this is not the time for me to get angry. Little Loki, are you okay?" Tang Li Xue asked with a tone filled with worry while hastily stabilizing her figure in the air before she could fall heavily onto the ground.
"Nyaaw~! (I am okay~!)" Little Loki replied with a reassuring tone.
Tang Li Xue immediately used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step] once again and continued to fly at her full speed, but it was already a bit toote since those royal guards in silver armor were already so close behind her!
There were quite a lot of royal guards in silver armor guarding the fox cage''s carriages, and each team of royal guards should be assigned to chase down every escaping fox.
The khaki-colored fox also had its own royal guard team that chased after it.
But the khaki-colored fox attacked Tang Li Xue and nned to use her to attract the attention of the royal guard team who chased after it.
Fortunately for Tang Li Xue, the royal guard team was not tempted and kept chasing after the khaki-colored fox instead.
If not, Tang Li Xue might have already been nked by two royal guard teams from the front and behind right now!
At that time, her chance to escape might be decreased by at least half.
Of course, even if Tang Li Xue was chased by only one royal guard team right now, but her situation was still very precarious.
The approaching Royal Guard team immediately took this chance to bombard Tang Li Xue from behind using the talisman stored in their spatial rings!
BAAANNGG~! BAAANNGG~! BOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue tried to dodge their bombardment by flying in a zigzag pattern, but she still failed to avoid all of them.
Some of the projectiles shot by the royal guard''s talisman hit Tang Li Xue from behind and made her sway unsteadily.
Chapter 646: [Eyes of Illusion]!
The royal guards in silver armor quickly took this chance to throw the [Beast Sealing Nets] toward Tang Li Xue!
"These persistent bast*rds are really annoying~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs angrily as she used [Energy Maniption] to create a transparent wall to block the flying [Beast Sealing Nets].
BAAAAAANNG~!
The transparent wall managed to block the [Beast Sealing Nets], and they bounced to the royal guards instead, but the royal guards could easily catch the [Beast Sealing Nets] since [Beast Sealing Nets] was only targeted to catch beasts, not people.
However, this second failure to catch Tang Li Xue started to make the chasing royal guards lose their patience.
As special royal guards trained to guard the royal family, they clearly could not bepared with the City Lord''s guards from the previous seventh treasure game.
These royal guards not only had much more powerful martial arts and battle formations, but they surely had several more trump cards to kill their opponents.
It was just that the royal guards did not dare to use it carelessly on the escaping foxes since they were only ordered to catch those foxes back, not to kill them.
But even though they could not kill the escaping foxes, it did not mean that they could not injure the escaping foxes!
The royal guards in silver armor who were chasing closely behind Tang Li Xue stopped taking out talismans and took out bows and arrows instead from their spatial ring!
Tang Li Xue had already sensed the strange movements of those royal guards with her [Extrasensory Perception] and immediately realized that those royal guards might be more serious this time.
"Damn it~! What should I do now?! Should I just start to fight them back instead of running away like this?" Tang Li Xue hesitated for a second.
But she immediately shook her head and muttered: "No... Those guards are clearly not easy to deal with. If I waste too much time fighting against them, the other guards might have already caught the other foxes ande back to assist them. At that time, I would be besieged by many more guards, and I would no longer have any way to escape from them!"
.....
At this moment, the captain of the royal guards had already hastily contacted his higher-ups using themunication talisman.
"You useless fool~! Those foxes had already locked up in the [Beast Sealing Cage], so how could you still let them escape?!"
"I don''t care what you are going to do if I find even one fox missingter, I will make sure to behead you and all of your subordinates with my own hands! Do you hear me?!"
Themander of royal guards berated the royal guard''s captain mercilessly.
After themander of the royal guards almost angrily threw themunication talisman in his grasp, but he quickly thought that there was still something he had to do.
Themander of the royal guards hastily used themunication talisman to call someone.
"Your majesty''s pets had run away from the pce, so you better activate the Imperial City''s Protection Sealing Formation right now!" Themander of the royal guards informed the formation maintenance envoy.
The formation maintenance envoy expressed his doubt, but themander of the royal guards impatiently replied: "I do not care about your doubt at all! If Your Majesty''s pets really run away out from the Imperial City, my head and your head would certainly be taken by Your Majesty!"
Themander of the royal guards hung up the connection, and this time, he really threw away themunication talisman onto the ground in anger.
.....
Meanwhile, the royal guards who were chasing after Tang Li Xue had already aimed at her from behind with their bows and arrows!
Just when they almost unleashed the arrows from their bows...
WEEEEEEEEEENNG~!
The enormous transparent golden dome instantly covered the entire Imperial City!
"Damn it~! What the hell is this?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in an exasperated tone while frowning deeply.
The royal guards chuckled as they shouted at Tang Li Xue: "Just give up~! With this Imperial City''s Protection Sealing Formation, no one can enter or get out of Imperial City anymore!"
Tang Li Xue did not reply, but her bad feeling became even more apparent after hearing the royal guard''s words.
SWOSH~! SWOSH~! SWOSH~! SWOSH~!
The royal guards shot their arrows at Tang Li Xue in unison, but they had already carefully aimed at her limbs instead of her fatal points!
Tang Li Xue thought their bows and arrows were only magic treasure level at best, and she surely could dodge or block them.
But who knew that the arrows they unleashed transformed into colorful light and shed toward Tang Li Xue in an instant?!
"Spirit Treasure level weapons~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock and disbelief.
There were a dozen Spirit Treasure level arrows shing toward her!
Even though she still has 3 times deadly blow protection from her [Sun And Moon Aegis], it would still not be enough to block those dozen Spirit Treasure level arrows!
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only choose to activate [Sun And Moon Protection] to be invulnerable for 2 seconds!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
The dozen Spirit Treasure level arrows mercilessly assaulted Tang Li Xue at the same time from behind!
However, all of them failed to harm Tang Li Xue because of [Sun And Moon Protection]!
On the contrary, the powerful impact pushed Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body farther away in an instant, and she managed to increase the distance between her and those Royal Guards in the blink of an eye!
Tang Li Xue felt a bit relieved since those Royal Guards were no longer so close behind her, but she hastily took this chance to think of her next n.
Her [Sun And Moon Protection] was already in cooldown, so if those Royal Guards shot another wave of Spirit Treasure level arrows toward her, she really had no way to avoid or block them anymore!
Just like what Tang Li Xue had expected, those Royal Guards really took another Spirit Treasure level arrow from their spatial rings!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she suddenly dived down from the sky with breakneck speed!
Underneath her was the crowded Imperial City filled with millions of people!
Tang Li Xue nned to blend with people, so those Royal Guards would not be able to find her easily!
But she immediately remembered the annoying treasuredpass those Royal Guards used to track her down before...
"No, I have to find a way to steal that annoying treasuredpass from them first!" Tang Li Xue murmured with a solemn expression.
"Nyaaaw~! (Leave it to me~!)" Little Loki hastily replied.
"Really? Can you really do it, Little Loki?" Tang Li Xue eximed in amazement.
Little Loki patted its small furry chest with a smug expression.
"All right then... I will be counting on you for that~!" Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
It only took one or two seconds for Tang Li Xue tond on the crowded street filled with people, and she quickly activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn invisible!
ording to Tang Li Xue''s calction, at least those Royal Guards would not dare to attack blindly in this crowded street.
Even if they have that annoying treasuredpass to track her, it should be a lot more difficult to find her in a crowded ce like here.
Moreover, the entire Imperial City had already beenpletely sealed, so she could no longer escape from the Imperial City only by flying out of here just like that.
It only took a few moments for the Royal Guards who were chasing after Tang Li Xue to alsond on the busy street.
The team leader of those royal guards hastily took out the treasurepass from his spatial ring to track Tang Li Xue.
But Little Loki used [Instant Teleportation] to appear right in front of the royal guard''s team leader and snatched the treasurepass from him!
Then Little Loki activated [Instant Teleportation] once again to distance itself from those royal guards!
Little Loki''s movement instantly angered those royal guards, and they quickly chased after Little Loki instead!
Tang Li Xue quickly took this chance to try her new skill on those angered royal guards...
[Eyes of Illusion]~!
Her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes were shining, and the mysterious light reflected on the eyes of those royal guards.
Those royal guards suddenly turned and ran in another direction as if they were still chasing after Little Loki, even though Little Loki was actually standing still right beside Tang Li Xue.
"Woah, this [Eyes of Illusion] is surprisingly good~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in amazement and delight.
Not only the power of this [Eyes of Illusion] was surprisingly effective, but the energy consumption was also a lot lesspared to [Mystic Whisper].
But [Eyes of Illusion] needs to have direct eye contact with the target in order for it to work, while [Mystic Whisper] could work in an instant by directly affecting the target''s consciousness.
From that, it could be seen both [Eyes of Illusion] and [Mystic Whisper] had their own advantages and disadvantages, but if Tang Li Xue could use both of them skillfully, she would be able to confuse the enemies'' senses and toy them around easily.
Chapter 647: Green Tea Tactic!
After the royal guard team stopped chasing her, Tang Li Xue immediately canceled her [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya to save her and Yaya''s energy.
Tang Li Xue sneaked into the nearby inn in her [Ethereal Form].
Even though the street and the inn were very crowded, but no one could see or sense her when her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] were activated.
Tang Li Xue secretly entered the empty room in that inn, then she canceled her [Ethereal Form] and used her transfiguration to transform into her human form.
Since she was stillpletely naked after transforming into her human form, Tang Li Xue created a set of white Hanfu dress and a long hooded cloak with her [Energy Maniption] to cover her silver furry fox tail and ears.
After putting on the white dress and long hooded cloak to cover her alluring jade-like body, Tang Li Xue began to think about her next n carefully while sitting on the bed to rest.
"From what those Royal Guards said, that whatever something-something formation..." Tang Li Xue muttered.
"Meaw Mew Nyaaaw (Imperial City''s Protection Sealing Formation)." Little Loki added while sitting right beside Tang Li Xue on the bed.
"Ah, yes... that Imperial City''s Protection Sealing Formation wouldpletely seal this entire city. No one inside this city can get out, and no one outside the city can get in, as long as Imperial City''s Protection Sealing Formation is still activated. So, what should we do so we can get out of this city?" Tang Li Xue said the information she knew and asked herself.
Even Little Loki was stumped this time and could only frown in silence...
If they were in a normal situation, it could easily create a gap in any formation with its [Heaven''s Devour] just like what it had already done in Quanhai City before.
But Little Loki clearly could not do it in this Foxes Hunting Festival since there might be some eyes that observe its every move.
Yaya who sat silently on Tang Li Xue''s shoulder shook her head to express that she really could not think any way out of it.
Tang Li Xue sighed while putting her palm on her smooth chin and whispered with a soft tone: "Since Imperial City''s Protection Sealing Formation intended to protect this entire city from enemy invasion, it should be extremely powerful. Ourbined strength would surely not be enough to forcefully break through it."
"So, our only way is to find the core formation and destroy it..." Tang Li Xue concluded.
"Meeoow Nyao~! (But the core formation should be ced inside the Imperial Pce~!)" Little Loki immediately reminded.
Tang Li Xue and Little Loki turned their head and stared at each other.
Then both of them sighed in resignation at the same time.
Yaya saw what Tang Li Xue and Little Loki were doing, then she imitated them to sigh too.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue really did not want to go to the Imperial Pce at all.
Just one team of royal guards was enough to almost kill her before... How many royal guards do you think in that Imperial Pce?
Just thinking about it was enough to make Tang Li Xue''s scalp go numb.
"But there is no need for us to hurry... Since we can think like that, the other foxes should be able to think so too. We will wait and see what they will do first." Tang Li Xue decided.
Little Loki nodded in agreement and growled: "Nyaw Meoww~! (I am hungry~!)"
Tang Li Xue giggled while patting Little Loki''s head gently and said: "All right, let''s eat first~!"
Before she went out of the inn''s room, Tang Li Xue covered her stunningly beautiful face with a veil, so she would not attract any unwanted attention.
Even though she did not have any penny right now, Tang Li Xue did not worry at all.
After she went out of the inn, Tang Li Xue looked around for a while...
When she saw a middle-aged man wearing luxurious clothes wandering on the street with several tough-looking bodyguards, Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining as she muttered yfully: "There hees... My money bag~!"
Tang Li Xue leisurely approached the middle-aged man, but before she could reach the middle-aged man, his several tough-looking bodyguards had already blocked Tang Li Xue''s way.
Tang Li Xue pretended to crash lightly onto the bodyguard and fell to the ground.
"Ouch~!" Tang Li Xue whimpered in pain as she secretly made her veil fluttered, so the middle-aged man could peek at her bewitching stunning face.
Just like Tang Li Xue expected, the middle-aged man was instantly dazzled by her irresistible charming face.
The surrounding scene seemed to fade away, only Tang Li Xue was in his eyes and mind right now.
The middle-aged man waspletely stunned and forgot to react for a few moments.
"I am sorry, miss." The bodyguard sincerely apologized and reached his hand to help Tang Li Xue get up.
The middle-aged man hastily pushed the bodyguard away and wanted to help Tang Li Xue get up instead.
But Tang Li Xue had already got up by herself without giving the middle-aged man any chance to touch her.
"Ahahaha, I am sorry for my subordinate''s impoliteness! Don''t worry, young miss! I will make sure to punish him harshlyter!" The middle-aged man cheerfully said to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue smiled back and replied while slowly standing up and patting her wrinkled cloak: "You do not need to do it. It is only an ident."
The middle-aged man became talkative to Tang Li Xue and introduced himself as Wang Shan, the third son of the Minister of Justice.
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise, then she squinted her topaz blue eyes and thought deeply.
''Wow, I thought he was only a usual rich merchant. To think I could identally catch a big fish as soon as I got out of the inn... It seems my luck is as good as always~!'' Tang Li Xue thought smugly.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to take this middle-aged man''s money and immediately dumped him away, but after knowing his identity, she quickly changed her mind.
''Wait a minute, why the hell am I seem to act like a proper green tea in a romance story right now... Sigh, whatever... Who cares about that as long as I can use this man to infiltrate the Imperial Pceter~?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind while smiling sweetly at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man invited Tang Li Xue to eat together at the luxurious restaurant.
Of course, Tang Li Xue would not reject it, and she even ordered many different delicacies for Little Loki and Yaya.
The infatuated middle-aged man did not mind it at all as he kept staring at Tang Li Xue with an intoxicated expression.
But when Tang Li Xue was enjoying her delicious meal, she sensed someone was watching her from behind with her [Extrasensory Perception].
"So you are a fox too, aren''t you?" Someone whispered to her with telepathy.
Tang Li Xue calmed down a bit after realizing that the one who observed her might be a participating fox like her too.
''Well, at least it was not those annoying Royal Guards...'' Tang Li Xue thought.
"Yes, what do you want?" Tang Li Xue replied back with her telepathy.
"You should already know that our current situation is not that good. As long as that annoying formation is still there, we will never be able to leave this city." The observing fox said to Tang Li Xue with telepathy.
Tang Li Xue began to feel annoyed by this fox''s long speech.
"Just talk to the point!" Tang Li Xue coldly replied with telepathy.
"I have already contacted a few other foxes... I hope we can gather and discuss how to take down this annoying formation together at the lodging near the south gate tonight." The observing fox told to Tang Li Xue in one breath and went away from that luxurious restaurant.
Tang Li Xue tapped her slender finger on the table and pondered carefully whether she shoulde or not.
"Miss Tang? Does the food here not suit your taste?" Wang Shan asked with a worried tone.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and replied while frowning a bit: "No, all the foods here are extremely delicious. It is just that... I have an urgent matter to do."
"What is the matter? Maybe I can help you solve it." Wang Shan asked again without any hesitation.
"My parents are dying, so I must go to see them as soon as possible in another city. But this formation..." Tang Li Xue muttered with a sad and helpless expression.
"Ah, I see so it was like that..." Wang Shan nodded and began to think hard about how to help Tang Li Xue out.
Tang Li Xue put on a pitiful expression and begged: "Brother Wang, can you help me get out of this city as soon as possible, so I can quickly meet with my dying parent before they passed away?"
Wang Shan began to sweat profusely, but he gritted his teeth and replied with a reassuring tone: "Of course, Miss Tang~! Leave it to me~!"
Chapter 648: Prepare For Plan B!
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and nodded gratefully at Wang Shan with a dazzling beautiful smile on her charming face.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not really believe Wang Shan''s words, but at least, she might be able to find a way to pass the Imperial City''s Protection Sealing Formation without going to the Imperial Pce from this Wang Shan.
After Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Yaya ate until they were full, Wang Shan offered them to stay in his mansion tonight.
Tang Li Xue put on a hesitating expression, but Wang Shan hastily tried to persuade her that he would look at his father to discuss how to escort her out from this Imperial City tomorrow morning.
Tang Li Xue reluctantly agreed to Wang Shan''s suggestion. All of them rode the luxurious carriage and headed to Wang Shan''s mansion.
On the way, Wang Shan still excitedly tried to strike up a conversation with Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue''s mind was too upied with the gathering appointment with the other foxes, so she only absentmindedly replied to Wang Shan superficially.
''Urgh... Should I stille to that gathering appointment?'' Tang Li Xue carefully pondered in her mind.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and decided: ''I shoulde to that gathering appointment...''
Tang Li Xue took a nce at talkative Wang Shan while thinking: ''Well, even though this third son of the Minister of Justice really seems to have a way of letting me pass the Protection Sealing Formationter, but there is nothing wrong if I prepare a n B.''
''At least I should go there and try to listen to their n first. They are mypetitors after all. So, getting more information about them would only increase my chance of winning in this treasure game.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her heart.
It did not take long for them to reach Wang Shan''s mansion since the mansion''s location was still near the center of Imperial City.
Wang Shan''s mansion was not onlyrge and luxurious but there were many rare nts and flowers that made it looks beautiful and refreshing.
When they entered the gate, there were many guards, maids, and servants greeting them politely.
This Wang Shan even had dozens of wives and concubines that coquettishly weed him.
In normal times, Wang Shan might be very happy with what they were doing. He would y around happily with them and then reward them generously, but right now, he was too busy trying to entertain his favorite Tang Li Xue so how could he bother to look at them?!
Comparing his wives and concubines with Tang Li Xue was likeparing a bunch of rotten wood and a dazzling gem.
Even Wang Shan could not bother to take a nce at them right now, and all of his attention was only on Tang Li Xue.
He annoyedly waved his hands to drive away all his wives and concubines, so they would not disturb his precious time with Tang Li Xue.
Those wives and concubines red at Tang Li Xue with hatred and jealousy, but they did not dare to say anything in front of Wang Shan, so they could only walk away back to their own courtyard for now.
Tang Li Xue was secretly disgusted by Wang Shan''s behavior, but she did not show it on the outside at all and still showed a charming gentle smile on her stunningly beautiful face.
Wang Shan escorted Tang Li Xue to the courtyard on the opposite of his own courtyard, and it was only separated by a few steps.
"Miss Tang, you can stay here for now. If you need some help, do not need to be shy, you can directly ask me. My courtyard is just on the opposite of yours." Wang Shan said to Tang Li Xue.
After a few minutes and Wang Shan was still bbering nonstop to Tang Li Xue, she finally could not hold on anymore and muttered: "Brother Wang, I am really tired right now. Can I go to sleep?"
Wang Shan blushed in embarrassment and replied: "Oh, I am sorry for my ignorance, Miss Tang. This maid will bring you to your room. If you need anything, you can just ask them to prepare it."
Tang Li Xue nodded and hastily followed the maid while saying: "See you tomorrow morning, Brother Wang~!"
Wang Shan smiled with a silly infatuated expression and replied: "See you tomorrow too, Miss Tang~!"
Even after Tang Li Xue entered her room, Wang Shan''s eyes were still glued to the door of her room.
.....
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after entering the room with Little Loki and Yaya.
Yaya immediately jumped onto the soft bed and yfully bounced again and again on the soft bed.
Meanwhile, Little Loki approached the expensive-looking porcin vase, it opened its mouth and swallowed the entire vase in one gulp.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched violently when she saw what was Little Loki secretly doing.
"Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue warned Little Loki with her re.
Little Loki only shrugged its shoulder without care.
It already swallowed several general''s weapons in the sixth treasure game before, so no one would care if it swallowed several other items, right?!
As long as it did not use [Heaven''s Devour] to swallow everything indiscriminately, no one would suspect it since many other beasts liked to eat everything they saw such as iron-eating beasts, nian beasts, and so on.
Tang Li Xue nced at the sky outside from the window and found out that the sky was almost dark.
"The lodging near the south gate tonight, huh..." Tang Li Xue murmured.
Tang Li Xue had already secretly judged the strength of the guards in Wang Shan''s mansion, and they were far from beingparable to the Imperial Pce''s Royal Guards.
It should not be that hard for her to sneak out of this mansion when the sky turnedpletely darkter.
Well, it was not strange since Wang Shan was only the third son of the Minister of Justice, so how could his guards bepared to the Royal Guards who protect the safety of the Emperor.
The more Tang Li Xue thought about it, the more she suspected that there should be many Nascent Soul Cultivators guarding around the Imperial Pce.
''There is no need to doubt that trying to sneak into Imperial Pce to find the formation core and open the formation should be a really suicidal move...'' Tang Li Xue determined in her heart.
Tang Li Xue decided to never do it unless she really had no other choice.
After waiting for a few hours and making sure that Wang Shan was no longer keeping an eye on her, Tang Li Xue called the maids who guards right in front of the door of her room.
When they kneeled in front of Tang Li Xue, she immediately used her [Mystic Whisper] on them: "All of you will guard the door and do not let anyone enter this room until Ie back."
Tang Li Xue''s words prated into those maids'' deepest consciousness, and they instantly fell into her control.
"Yes, Miss." Several maids answered obediently with nk looks on their faces.
Several maids went out from Tang Li Xue''s room and guarded the room seriously.
But Tang Li Xue felt it was still not enough...
Since she needed Wang Shan''s help to get out of this Imperial City very much, she did not want to make Wang Shan suspicious of her.
To be safer, Tang Li Xue decided to leave a [Water Mirage] clone behind in this room and made her act as if she was fast asleep in the bed.
"Let''s go~! Yaya, Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue urged the sleepy Yaya and thezy Little Loki.
Even though Yaya and Little Loki were looking sleepy andzy, but she did not n to leave them in this ce.
Despite their sleepiness andziness, Yaya and Little Loki did not whine and still obediently jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s shoulder.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn invisible and undetectable, while Yaya and Little Loki also turned on their respective stealth skill to enter the invisible state.
Just like Tang Li Xue had already expected, she easily sneaked out from Wang Shan''s mansion without being found by any guards.
But on her way to the gathering ce, Tang Li Xue bumped into some trouble.
There were actually so many royal guards spread around the entire imperial city to search for the running away foxes right now!
Some of them even emitted terrifying pressure and kept scanning the Imperial City with their horrifying divine sense to find the running away foxes!
''Damn it~! They even mobilize the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators to look for us~?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in her mind.
She hastily turned off her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] before the horrifying divine sense of those Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators could scan her.
Tang Li Xue''s [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] would not be able to hide her from the divine sense of those Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators.
But she did not really worry since she was currently in her human form and mixed with the crowd of humans in the street, so those Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators should not be able to find her right away, but it would be apletely different matter if her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] were still activated.
They would only make her look very suspicious in the eyes of those Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators!
Chapter 649: Foxes Gathering!
Tang Li Xue had also already put Little Loki and Yaya into her system''s pet space on time before those Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators could scan and find them.
Tang Li Xue grasped her hands nervously when she saw so many royal guards and imperial soldiers scattered on the entire street, and many of them were also flying around the sky above the Imperial City to patrol.
The royal guards and the imperial soldiers checked the suspicious-looking people on the street one by one carefully, and some of them were even taken into custody.
''Sigh¡ I should really not go out at this time and just wait patiently in my room instead.'' Tang Li Xue sighed in regret, but it was already toote for her to back down right now.
Tang Li Xue hastened her steps to pass those royal guards and imperial soldiers quickly.
Unfortunately, a few royal guards immediately spotted her and called her: "Hey, you over there~! The person who is covered with a white hooded cloak~! Come here~!"
Tang Li Xue halted her step while gnashing her pearl-white teeth in frustration.
She even considered ignoring that royal guard''s call and just quickly running away from here as fast as she could, but that was clearly a worse decision to make since it would only make them even more suspicious of her.
She waspletely trapped in this Imperial City right now like a turtle in the urn, so it would be impossible for her to run away from these royal guards and imperial soldiers.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her turbulent mood.
She turned around to face the approaching royal guards and greeted them politely with a charming smile on her stunning face: "Ah? Does Sir Officer just call me?"
Even though Tang Li Xue was currently wearing a white veil to cover her stunning face, but her topaz blue eyes were enough to amaze those approaching royal guards.
Those royal guards nodded and smiled politely at her while one of them asked: "I am sorry, Miss, for our obstruction. But we have an urgent task from higher-ups to inspect every suspicious person in the city to find a group of dangerous runaway prisoners."
Tang Li Xue giggled instead to cover her nervousness and replied with a yful tone: "So, Sir Officer think of me as a suspicious person? Do I really look like a dangerous runaway criminal? How mean of you, Sir Officer~!"
Several royal guards blushed, and one of them immediately denied nervously: "Of course not... I think... No, I mean, we think it should be impossible for an innocent beauty like Young Miss to be a criminal..."
The other royal guards hastily added: "Yes, we really sincerely think so, but our higher-ups strictly ordered us to check everyone''s head since that group of dangerous runaway prisoners should have a mark on the top of their heads."
Tang Li Xue''s slender body unconsciously shuddered after she heard their words.
Tang Li Xue thought solemnly: ''So, they already know that even foxes like us transfigured into human form, we would definitely still have a pair of fox ears on the top of our heads, so they used it to identify us.''
Tang Li Xue still maintained her calm and yful manner in front of the royal guards in order for them to lower their guard.
Tang Li Xue nodded and replied while giggling yfully: "Oh, I see... So it is a strict order from your higher-ups. If that is the case, it really cannot be helped. All right~! But only for a moment, okay~? I am a shy person after all, hehehe~!"
Despite keep acting yful in front of those few royal guards, her topaz blue eyes had already scanned her surroundings carefully, and her mind was thinking fast about her next action.
''It seems I really have no choice other than to obey them... Maybe I should just use [Mystic Whisper] on them and give an order to them, so they will not be able to see my fox ears?!'' Tang Li Xue vigntly thought.
Just when she decided to do it, and she almost opened her pink lips to use her [Mystic Whisper]...
Tang Li Xue suddenly remembered the harsh lesson she learned from the seventh treasure game before...
At that time, she also used [Mystic Whisper] on several City Lord''s guards, but their captains could actually use it to track back her location instead!
She immediately canceled her n and thought: "No, [Mystic Whisper] might be extremely useful and powerful, but they can use the vitality energy I left on the target to track me!''
Just when the several royal guards began to lose their patience, and Tang Li Xue also started to panic...
She suddenly got a sh of inspiration in her mind.
Tang Li Xue pulled down her white veil and raised the hood on the top of her head, but her alluring topaz blue eyes were shining dimly, and the mysterious light reflected on the eyes of those several royal guards.
[Eyes of Illusion]~!
At this time, several royal guards saw the beautiful Tang Li Xue, but her face was not as stunningly beautiful as usual, and there were no silver furry fox ears on the top of her head.
Yes, [Eyes of Illusion] was not her divine ability. It was one of the skills from her [Spiritualist] Battle Style, so unlike [Mystic Whisper], it would not leave any trace such as her vitality energy on the targets.
After one or two seconds, Tang Li Xue quickly covered her face and head with a white veil and hood again.
Even though she had already used [Eyes of Illusion] on several royal guards in front of her, but there was no guarantee that the other royal guards or imperial soldiers nearby would not identally see her fox ears instead.
Tang Li Xue''s heart was beating more rapidly because of her nervousness as if it would jump out from her chest.
"All right, thank you very much for your cooperation, Young Miss." One of the royal guards nodded at Tang Li Xue with a silly smile on his face.
Tang Li Xue chucked and replied with a rxed tone: "You are wee, Sir Officer~! Then I can go now, right? My friends are already waiting for me, so I am afraid they look for me soon."
Several royal guards stopped blocking in front of Tang Li Xue, so she quickly passed them and continued her way to the foxes'' meeting ce.
But just after Tang Li Xue took a dozen steps from them, one of the royal guards called Tang Li Xue again from behind: "Excuse me, Young Miss~!"
Tang Li Xue halted her step again while gnashing her pearl-white teeth.
''Oh, no~! Did one of them manage to see through my [Eyes of Illusion]?! Damn it~! What to do now?!'' Tang Li Xue anxiously thought.
She took a deep breath to forcefully calm down before turning to face those royal guards and asked: "Yes? Is there anything else you need from me, Sir Officer?"
The royal guard who called Tang Li Xue blushed like a prawn as he muttered softly: "Can I know your name and where you live, Young Miss? Maybe I can visit you at another time after this task is finished."
Tang Li Xue chuckled yfully, but she secretly felt relieved in her heart.
Tang Li Xue continued her step and yfully waved her hand to the asking royal guard while saying: "My name is Tang Xue. I am currently staying at an inn near the south gate."
''Well, I am currently heading there right now, so saying I am staying at an inn near the south gate should not make those royal guards suspicious of me, right?'' Tang Li Xue doubtfully asked in her mind.
After walking quite far from those several royal guards, Tang Li Xue wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.
"Sigh... That was a close one. I hope those other foxes can give me some surprise, if not, all of these tensions and efforts would be in vain." Tang Li Xue murmured with a resentful tone.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to reach the appointment ce.
"You arete." A feminine voice entered Tang Li Xue''s ear before she could step into the inn.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes when she saw a petite fox girl whoined about her.
Actually, Tang Li Xue could have reached this ce much earlier if she had dashed at her full speed, but of course, she did not dare to do it under so many watchful eyes of those royal guards and imperial soldiers.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to exin. She leisurely sat on one of the seats and asked the petite fox girl instead: "So, everyone has already arrived before me?"
The other tall fox girl who wore a green dress shook her head and replied with a disappointed tone: "I invited six foxes in total, but only three came including you."
Chapter 650: A Hard Choice!
Tang Li Xue red vigntly at the green-dressed tall fox girl since she guessed that this tall fox girl should be the wood-controlling fox whounched a sneak attack on her before she entered this ninth treasure game.
"Then I am notte yet, right? Since we still need to wait for the other three foxes toe." Tang Li Xue ignored the green-dressed tall fox girl and talked to the petite fox girl.
However, Tang Li Xue secretly observed the petite fox girl to measure her strength.
Tang Li Xue immediately felt that the petite fox girl''s khaki-colored short hair looked a bit familiar to her.
Then Tang Li Xue quickly recalled the khaki-colored fox who sneak attacked her when she was trying to run away from the several royal guards before.
Tang Li Xue''s expression frowned slightly in annoyance as she thought: ''What kind of bad luck is this?! There are two foxes here, but both of them have attacked me before.''
Just from that, Tang Li Xue would definitely never trust any words of these two scummy sneaky backstabbing foxes.
The petite fox girl stared back at Tang Li Xue and replied with an indifferent tone: "No, you should be thest one. The other three foxes should have already gotten caught by those humans on their way here."
Tang Li Xue raised her eyebrow in suspicion and asked with a doubtful tone: "Are you really sure about that? How could you know? Did you see it with your own eyes?"
The petite fox girl red coldly at Tang Li Xue, and her cold gaze shed with Tang Li Xue''s displeased re.
But before they could quarrel with each other, the green-dressed tall fox girl immediately interrupted while saying: "All right, that is enough. We will begin our discussion right now."
"Humph~!" The petite fox girl turned away while snorted resentfully.
Tang Li Xue sneered mockingly as she almost raised her middle finger at the petite fox girl, but she resisted the urge since she did not want to fight against the petite fox girl in the middle of this Imperial City.
Even though Tang Li Xue did not believe these two foxes, but there was no harm in knowing what they would do next.
The green-dressed tall fox girl began to exin to Tang Li Xue and the petite fox girl: "This Imperial City''s Protection Sealing Formation is extremely powerful. It intended to seal the entire Imperial City to protect the city from the invasion of powerful foes. Even a Spirit Beast might not be able to break it in one or two attacks."
"So, it is clearly impossible for us to break through it forcefully. Even if we go all out and attack it with all of our strength, we might not be able to leave any scratch on it." The green-dressed tall fox girl ended her exnation.
The petite fox girl frowned and asked with an annoyed tone: "Is there really no other way than to sneak into the imperial pce and find the formation core? Even if we managed to sessfully turn off the formation, we might not be able to get out of that imperial pce alive."
Tang Li Xue might not like the petite fox girl, but she had to agree with the petite fox girl''s words this time.
Even if they managed to turn off the formation, all of those royal guards, imperial soldiers, and Nascent Soul Stage generals would definitely notice that immediately and they would surround the Imperial Pce before they could get out from there.
At that time, they would definitely never be able to get out of the imperial pce anymore.
Tang Li Xue nced at the green-dressed tall fox girl curiously to see her response.
The green-dressed tall fox girl replied casually: "The formation definitely must be turned off if we want to get out from this Imperial City, but..."
"Who said we must be the ones who turn it off." The green-dressed tall fox girl muttered while smiling mysteriously.
Tang Li Xue suddenly had a bad feeling about this when she saw the green-dressed tall fox girl''s smile which was identical to Instructor Mei Lan''s crazy smile.
But the green-dressed tall fox girl''s words managed to pick the petite fox girl''s interest.
"Oh? Do you have another way to turn off this formation?" The petite fox girl asked with a curious tone.
The green-dressed tall fox girl took her tea cup and drank it leisurely before replying: "In our current situation, anyone would definitely think we have no other choice than hiding. What do you think if we use this chance to attack instead? They should have never expected it, right?"
"Attack them? Are you insane?" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock and disbelief.
Even the petite fox girl frowned deeply and red disdainfully at the green-dressed tall fox girl.
The green-dressed tall fox girl chuckled coldly as she muttered: "Yes if we sneak into the Imperial Pce and take the Emperor as our hostage, we can threaten those humans to open the formation and let us out from this city."
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in astonishment.
''Taking the Emperor as hostage?!''
''What kind of crazy n is that?!''
Only an insane fox like this green-dressed tall fox girl could think of such a radical n.
But the more Tang Li Xue thought about it, the more she found it made sense!
With the Emperor''s life in their hand, all of those humans would not dare to act rashly.
If they threatened those humans to open the formation and let them out of this Imperial City or they would really kill the Emperor, then those humans would have no choice other than to fulfill it.
Tang Li Xue decided to ask her doubt: "But the Emperor should have a lot of extremely powerful guards around him, right? At least the Emperor''s close bodyguards should be at the peak Nascent Soul Stage."
The green-dressed tall fox girl shook her head: "If we do it forcefully in a rough way, we will definitely fail for sure."
The petite fox girl became even more curious as she asked again: "A forceful rough way will not work? Do you mean you still have a soft way?"
The green-dressed tall fox girl sneered cunningly and replied: "Yes, soft way~! Do you forget that we are foxes? We should be the best at the seduction art, not a barbaric frontal battle like the other beasts~!"
Tang Li Xue almost slipped and fell down from her chair when she heard the green-dressed tall fox girl''s words.
The petite fox girl shone with excitement as she spoke: "Ah, I get it~! So, you n to seduce the Emperor~!"
Sure enough, Tang Li Xue felt that their n became more and more feasible.
Even though Tang Li Xue''s strength was still far from beingpared to Meng Yue, but she was extremely confident in her unmatched charming beauty.
If she seduced the Emperor with her unmatched charming beauty, could the Emperor still keep his mind sober and resist it?!
The sess rate of it should be almost 100%, right?
''No, no, no... That is too dangerous for me to do~! The risk is clearly too high~! I will definitely not do it~!'' Tang Li Xue quickly denied it in her heart while rattling her head.
The green-dressed tall fox girl nodded in satisfaction as she exined further: "That is right. We just need to seduce the Emperor until he brings us to his bedroom. At that time, it would be impossible for his powerful bodyguards to follow him into the bedroom, right? Then it would be our only chance to seize the Emperor as our hostage!"
The petite fox girl became even more excited as she shouted in amazement: "Wow, what a brilliant n~!"
"All right then, when we will execute this n? Tomorrow morning? Or should we wait patiently for a few more days until those humans calmed down first?" The green-dressed tall fox girl asked for their opinion.
The petite fox girl thought for a while and replied: "I think we should just do it as soon as possible since those humans are still busy looking for us all around the Imperial City, so the guard in the Imperial Pce should be morex at this time."
"I agree~! Then we will just do it tomorrow morning!" The green-dressed tall fox girl decided.
At this point, Tang Li Xue still remained indecisive.
Even though the green-dressed tall fox girl''s n sounded very feasible, especially for Tang Li Xue with her unmatched charming beauty, but Tang Li Xue still felt the risk was too high for her to ept.
Tang Li Xue still hoped that Wang Shan could really find a way to let her out of the Imperial City without taking any risks.
But unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, both Wang Shan and these foxes arranged for her to meet them at the same time!
Yes, she must meet with them tomorrow morning!
''Damn it~! What a hard choice is this?!'' Tang Li Xueined frustratedly in her heart.
Chapter 651: Fatal Flaw!
After pondering carefully for a while, Tang Li Xue finally decided on her choice.
"I am sorry, but I already have another appointment tomorrow." Tang Li Xue politely refused to take part in their n.
The green-dressed tall fox girl and the petite fox girl frowned in displeasure when they heard Tang Li Xue''s rejection,
especially since Tang Li Xue already knew their n.
Because they suspected that Tang Li Xue might do something to sabotage their nter.
Tang Li Xue could faintly read their worry from their expression, so she hastily exined her n to them: "You do not need to worry. I will not do anything to ruin your n. I reject your n because I already have my own n to escape from this Imperial City tomorrow morning."
The petite fox girl raised her eyebrow and asked curiously: "Oh? You already have your own n to get out of this city?! Even the timing is the same as our n?!"
But the green-dressed tall fox girl immediately said with a suspicious tone: "Do you really believe what she told us? What if she only talked nonsense to deceive us?"
Tang Li Xue felt a bit offended by the green-dressed tall fox girl''s using words, but she also felt guilty for not joining their n aftering here and finding out about it.
The petite fox girl frowned and asked Tang Li Xue again: "Can you tell us something about your n too?"
Tang Li Xue nodded and generously exined: "I already approached the son of an important minister today, and he had promised to find a way to bring me out of this city tomorrow morning."
Both the green-dressed tall fox girl and the petite fox girl widened their eyes in surprise.
When they were still thinking about the next n after escaping from the royal guards today, Tang Li Xue had already made her move today and was actually one step ahead of them all.
Tang Li Xue stared displeasantly at the green-dressed tall fox girl and sneered mockingly while saying: "So, you do not need to worry that I will ruin your n~! Because just like you two, I will be too busy to execute my own n tomorrow morning!"
Tang Li Xue slowly stood up and muttered with a burningpetitive spirit: "Then tomorrow will be the showdown between us. No one knows whether my n or your n will seed, but the first fox who sessfully gets out of this city will be the final winner of this treasure game~!"
Both the green-dressed tall fox girl and the petite fox girl did not bother to say anything anymore at this time.
The three of them werepetitors after all.
Regardless Tang Li Xue cooperates with them or not, only one fox will be the final winner of this treasure game in the end.
Tang Li Xue got out of the inn and walked back to Wang Shan''s mansion without meeting with any obstruction.
On the way, Tang Li Xue considered her choice once more, and she really did not regret it even one bit.
Their n might sound very feasible, but they were each other''spetitors after all, so Tang Li Xue really could not put her trust in them at all since they could stab her back at any time and situation.
Choosing between Wang Shan and those untrustable two foxes, Tang Li Xue naturally would be willing to believe Wang Shan more.
Moreover, there was actually an unnoticeable fatal w in their n.
Tang Li Xue squinted her topaz blue eyes with a solemn expression.
"Their n sounds feasible, but only because we assume that the Emperor is actually a weakling without anybat power. If the Emperor has Formation Core cultivation level or above, then their n is no longer feasible to do." Tang Li Xue murmured her skepticism.
Yes... Despite their n to capture the Emperor and use him as their hostage, they still did not have any clue about the Emperor''s current strength at all!
Executing a high-risk n withoutplete information about their target like this was clearly a fatal mistake.
In Tang Li Xue''s opinion, the sess chance of their n was actually not as high as they thought, but of course, Tang Li Xue would never tell them about this since the two of them were herpetitors after all.
There were still a lot of royal guards and imperial soldiers scattering on the entire street, and they were still busily checking the suspicious passersby one by one.
But somehow, no one inspected Tang Li Xue anymore until she returned back to Wang Shan''s mansion.
This matter did not make Tang Li Xue feel relieved.
On the contrary, it raised Tang Li Xue''s vignce and suspicion even more.
"This is definitely extremely strange~! My attire was clearly very suspicious yet they only checked me once. I suspected they secretly put a mark on me before." Tang Li Xue muttered while frowning deeply.
Tang Li Xue recalled carefully her previous close encounter with the several royal guards.
''But they did not touch me even once, so how could they secretly put a mark on me? Or maybe I think too much about it, and they are actually not suspicious about me at all?'' Tang Li Xue thought doubtfully.
Before she entered Wang Shan''s mansion, Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] again, then she sneaked back into her room without anyone realizing it.
After dispelling her [Water Mirage]''s clone, Tang Li Xue asked the several maids in front of the door of her room if someone had looked at her before.
Wang Shan actually came here to her room and invited her for dinner when she was out.
Thankfully, she had already used [Mystic Whisper] on these several maids, so they immediately found an excuse for her to reject Wang Shan''s dinner invitation.
In her room, Tang Li Xue quickly undressed and threw down her entire clothes.
She even used [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] to burn all of her clothes to nothingness because she still suspected that those royal guards left a mark on her clothes.
Tang Li Xue ordered several maids to prepare warm water for her to take a bath.
Tang Li Xue took out Yaya and Little Loki from her system''s pet space and took afortable warm bath with them.
"Little Loki, Yaya, do you find any hard-to-notice suspicious marks on me? I have a suspicion that those cunning royal guards secretly put a tracker on me." Tang Li Xue said to Little Loki and Yaya with a serious expression.
Yaya flew around around Tang Li Xue a few times, but she shook her tiny head signing that she did not find any suspicious thing at all.
On the other hand, Little Loki moved its sharp nose closer to Tang Li Xue and meowed: "Mew Meoo Nyaaw~! (You have a suspicious scent on your body~!)"
"Eh, really? But my scent is still sweet and fragrant as always~!" Tang Li Xue replied after she used her nose to sniff her own body scent.
Fox''s nose was already very sharp, and all of Tang Li Xue''s senses had already been enhanced many times by [Extrasensory Perception] divine ability.
Despite that, she still failed to find any suspicious smell on her.
Of course, Tang Li Xue 100% believed Little Loki''s words, so she took the flower-scented soap and tried to scrub it hard on her entire body to remove the suspicious scent.
Unfortunately, Little Loki told Tang Li Xue that the suspicious scent was still there.
ording to Little Loki, the suspicious scent was very peculiar and faint. No one would notice it, except they used a special tool to track her.
Tang Li Xue was very frustrated that the scent still persisted after all of her efforts.
"Should I just give up and let the scent keep lingering on my body just like this?" Tang Li Xue muttered with a disappointed expression.
After hesitating for a while, Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth with a resolute expression as she said: "No, tomorrow''s n is very crucial for us. Any mistake will increase our chance of failure, so I clearly cannot let this scent keep lingering on me."
Tang Li Xue suddenly condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] all of a sudden.
Little Loki and Yaya still did not understand what Tang Li Xue nned to do until...
CRRRSSSSHHH~!
Tang Li Xue controlled the [Sun Dragon ws] to ruthlessly burn her own skin!
Little Loki and Yaya hastily jumped to Tang Li Xue in worry to stop her, but Tang Li Xue shouted at them before they could approach her: "Stop there~! You two do not need to worry... I still have [High-Speed Regeneration], so this kind of burned skin wound could be cured in just less than a minute..."
Tang Li Xue forced out a reassuring smile tofort the worried Little Loki and Yaya while saying: "You two really do not need to worry about me. Suffering for one or two minutes like this is nothing at all to me~! I have suffered many times more pain than this over decades before."
Chapter 652: Empty Promise!
Tang Li Xue''s stunning face became a bit pale because of the burning pain, but she still persisted to the end without screaming or crying out.
The burnt wounds on the skin of her entire body looked terrible, but it only took one minute or so for her topletely recover back to normal.
After all the dried burnt skin was shed, Tang Li Xue''s skin restored back to her usual snowy white and silky smooth again.
Little Loki tried to sniff the suspicious scent on Tang Li Xue''s body.
The good news was the faint suspicious scent hadpletely disappeared this time.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, but to make it more sure, Tang Li Xue canceled her transfiguration and transformed back into her fox form.
Then she repeated the process again by burning her entire fur and skin using [Sun Dragon ws].
After her fur and skin regenerated back to normal, Tang Li Xue transformed back into her human form and took another bath to clean up the dried burned fur and skin that was still sticking to her.
With one wave of her hand, Tang Li Xue created a new set of clothes using her [Energy Maniption].
While wearing her newly made white dress, Tang Li Xue frowned with a solemn expression, and she muttered her suspicion: "Why did they secretly put a tracking scent on me? Have they already found out about me?"
But she quickly shook her head to deny it: "No way... If they had found out that I was a fox at that time, they would have already surrounded and detained me."
"I get it... It means those royal guards secretly split the people they check into three groups."
"The first group would be the most suspected people, and the royal guards would immediately detain them on the spot."
"The second group would be the citizens of Imperial City. With a clear identity and background, they should be the least suspected people."
"The third group should be people like me. The royal guards did not suspect me but without any clear identity or background as the citizens of Imperial City, they still decided to use something like tracking scent on me in case I did something detrimental to themter."
Tang Li Xue concluded her deduction and took a deep breath to calm down her turbulent mood.
From that, it could be seen that those imperial soldiers and royal guards were very careful and wary of any unstable factor, especially all outsiders like her.
But Tang Li Xue immediately understood the root cause of their worry.
They sealed the entire Imperial City to catch the runaway foxes, but that move would surely cause so much dissatisfaction for outsiders like traveling merchants, visiting cultivators, and so on.
There were millions of people in this Imperial City, and outsiders like her might have ounted for more than a tenth of them.
If those outsiders rioted because of itter, the imperial soldiers and royal guards could immediately track all of them down using the tracking scent and catch them all in one fell swoop.
"What a bunch of cunning bast*rds~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in amazement.
But to be honest, Tang Li Xue was really d that Little Loki could find the tracking scent on her before it was toote.
Because this tracking scent clearly could trip her at any time like a ticking bomb.
"Wait a minute... If those two foxes also had tracking scent on them, and they sneaked into the Imperial Pce without knowing it tomorrow... Damn, it sounds quite bad, doesn''t it?! Their n would be the same as a rat jumped into a trap by itself." Tang Li Xue muttered with a worried expression.
Well... Tang Li Xue was worried, but of course, she was not worried about those two foxes since they were herpetitors to win this treasure game.
She was worried that they would tell her n to the royal guards after the two of them got caughtter.
After hesitating for a while, Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation.
"Forget it... It is already sote at night. It would be bad if I got really caught by those royal guards for sneaking around suspiciously at night. Moreover, I might not be able to meet them again even if Ie to that inn." Tang Li Xue shook her head.
She grabbed Little Loki and Yaya and then went to sleep with them on the soft bed.
Tang Li Xue moaned in enjoyment andfort since she felt it had been so long that she did not sleep on such a soft bed.
In this Foxes Hunting Festival, she always either slept in the underground tunnel or inside the tree hole.
.....
The next morning, Yaya was the first to wake up as usual.
"Ya yayaaaa~!" Yaya pulled at Tang Li Xue''s cor to wake her up.
Tang Li Xue actually wanted to sleep for a little bit longer, but she heard amotion in front of her room, so she could onlyzily stand up to see what happened.
After tidying up her messy clothes and appearance, then covering up her silver furry ears and tails with a white hooded cloak, Tang Li Xue opened the door and walked out of her room.
Meanwhile, Little Loki and Yaya had already jumped onto Tang Li Xue and sat on her right and left shoulders.
In front of her room, Tang Li Xue saw that Wang Shan actually had a quarrel with the several maids guarding in front of her door.
"You mere maids, how dare you obstruct me?! Guards~! Drag these rebels out and give them one hundred whips as punishment~!" Wang Shan shouted in anger.
Tang Li Xue pped her forehead as she suddenly remembered that she forgot to cancel the [Mystic Whisper]''s order on the several maids to guard in front of her room''s door and never let anyone enter her room.
While on the other hand, Wang Shan should have intended to wake her up early this morning and take her to get out of this Imperial City.
"I am sorry, Brother Wang. They did it because I ordered them to do so yesterday. This is my fault." Tang Li Xue apologized politely to Wang Shan.
She still needs Wang Shan''s help, so she clearly did not want to offend him yet.
Wang Shan''s extreme anger instantly melted like the snow in the summer.
Hepletely forgot about the several maids'' offenses and passionately approached Tang Li Xue with an excited smile on his rough face.
"No, it should be me who should apologize instead. Miss Tang should have been very exhausted yesterday. I should let Miss Tang sleep for a bit longer." Wang Shan caringly said to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and replied with a sad expression: "How could I sleep peacefully when my parents were dying out there... Actually, I am very worried about them until I cannot sleep at all."
Little Loki and Yaya secretly rolled their eyes.
Their expression said: ''You clearly slept very soundly yesterday until your drool was dripping on us like rain~!''
Wang Shan did not notice Little Loki and Yaya''s strange expressions, and he felt even more sorry for Tang Li Xue.
"Miss Tang do not need to worry. I will do my best today to bring Miss Tang out of this city to meet with your parents soon~!" Wang Shan muttered to Tang Li Xue with a reassuring tone.
Tang Li Xue nodded at Wang Shan with a relieved smile on her stunningly beautiful face and said: "If Brother Wang can really bring me out of this city to meet my parents for thest time today. I, Tang Xue, will be willing to do anything to repay Brother Wang in the future."
Wang Shan waspletely dazzled by Tang Li Xue''s extremely beautiful smile, and he became even more excited after hearing Tang Li Xue''s promise.
Tang Li Xue blushed slightly in embarrassment, and it made Wang Shan think that Tang Li Xue might already have a feeling for him.
Well, Tang Li Xue clearly blushed because she gave an empty promise so tantly to Wang Shan.
''Uhh... Wait a minute... I am not lying, okay?! I am really willing to do anything to repay you, but unfortunately, we will never meet again after you bring me out of this Imperial City...'' Tang Li Xue thought shamelessly in her mind.
Wang Shan offered Tang Li Xue to eat breakfast in his courtyard first before he took her to meet his father.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to reject Wang Shan''s offer, but seeing the eager expression of Little Loki and Yaya, Tang Li Xue finally decided to ept it.
Wang Shan''s service was not half-hearted at all, and he had already prepared a lot of delicacies for Tang Li Xue to taste.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki cleaned all of them without any embarrassment.
Fortunately, Wang Shan was alreadypletely blinded by his infatuation with Tang Li Xue, so he did not mind it at all.
After that, Wang Shan brought Tang Li Xue to ride in his luxurious carriage, and they headed toward Wang Shan''s father''s mansion.
As Minister of Justice, both Wang Shan and Tang Li Xue were quite sure that Wang Shan''s father would definitely have a way to sneak her out of this city.
Chapter 653: Dumbfounded Tang Li Xue!
It did not take long for Wang Shan''s luxurious carriage to reach his father''s home since both Wang Shan''s mansion and his father''s manor were located at the center of Imperial City which was near the Imperial Pce.
Of course, Wang Shan''s father''s manor was much more luxurious and bigger than Wang Shan''s mansion because he was the current Minister of Justice of this Dynasty.
When Wang Shan''s luxurious carriage entered the extremely luxurious Minister of Justice''s manor, Tang Li Xue secretly scanned the surrounding carefully with her [Extrasensory Perception].
''As I had expected, the guards here are much more powerful than Wang Shan''s ce. The strength of the guards here is actually not much weaker than the royal guards. I might not even be able to sneak into this manor easily with my [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment].'' Tang Li Xue silently concluded in her mind.
Tang Li Xue nced at the inscription carved on the manor''s wall and found out it was actually quite simr to the inscription carved on the wall of the City Lord''s mansion in the previous treasure game.
Suddenly, Tang Li Xue felt pressured as if she had entered a huge cage right at this moment.
If Wang Shan actually nned to catch and detain her in this Minister of Justice''s manor instead, she might not really be able to escape from here!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down as she thought: ''Another day, another gamble... Then so be it~! It is already toote for me to retreat anyway~! We will see who will win this game in the end~!''
Since she had rejected to take part in the n of the two foxes yesterday, it meant Tang Li Xue had already decided to put all of her bet on Wang Shan.
Yes, Tang Li Xue bet that Wang Shan was fully infatuated with her beauty, and he would never do anything to trap or harm her.
At least, that should be much better than putting her trust in her twopetitors in Tang Li Xue''s opinion.
When Tang Li Xue was still thinking deeply, Wang Shan had already gotten off the luxurious carriage first, and he was immediately weed by the old butler, several servants, and several maids.
"Greetings to the third young master~!" The old butler, several guards, and several servants said while bowing their heads a bit politely.
Wang Shan stretched out his hand to Tang Li Xue and said: "Come on, Miss Tang~! I will escort you to meet my old man!"
Tang Li Xue covered her stunningly beautiful face with a white veil to not draw any unwanted attention, and she jumped down gracefully from the carriage without Wang Shan''s help.
Both Little Loki and Yaya were still sittingzily on her shoulders.
"Let''s go, Brother Wang~!" Tang Li Xue nodded and replied to Wang Shan.
Wang Shan did not feel offended and still smiled happily at Tang Li Xue as he led her to his father''s courtyard.
Tang Li Xue thought that Wang Shan''s father should be quite old since Wang Shan as his third son was already a middle-aged man, but when she saw Wang Shan''s father with her own eyes, she immediately realized that she had been wrong.
Wang Shan''s father looked as if he was only in the middle of his twenties!
Wang Shan''s father was currently sitting leisurely on the rattan chair while basking under the morning sun in his beautiful flower garden.
When Wang Shan and Tang Li Xue entered his courtyard, Wang Shan''s father calmly sipped on his teacup while staring at both of them curiously.
At that instant, Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] suddenly sensed a powerful divine sense that scanned her entire body.
Tang Li Xue''s figure suddenly stiffened as her mind eximed in shock: ''A powerful Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator~!''
Tang Li Xue instantly understood why Wang Shan''s father looked much younger than Wang Shan himself.
It was because the cultivation of Wang Shan''s father was already very high, so his lifespan had increased by many times!
Compared to his father, Wang Shan could only be said as a waste with Qi Condensation Stage cultivation.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue was already extremely flustered in her heart. Even her body almost turned around and ran away at full speed in reflex.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue resisted the urge to run away on time and still put a calm facade in front of Wang Shan''s father.
Wang Shan''s father ignored Tang Li Xue and smiled at Wang Shan instead while saying andughing yfully: "Hey, my son, Shan''er, looks even more handsome today~! Ahahaha~!"
Wang Shan alsoughed and replied: "Of course, I am handsome~! I am your son after all~! If I am ugly, then your head might be green, old man~! Ahahaha..."
Wang Shan''s father yfully kicked Wang Shan''s foot and scolded him: "You, damn brat~! How dare you say something like that?! If your mom hear it, I bet she would beat your butt until you cannot sit for a few days~!"
Wang Shan instantly jumped in fright and looked around vigntly.
After making sure that his mother was not there right now, Wang Shan sighed in relief.
Wang Shan brought Tang Li Xue closer to his father and introduced them to each other: "Old man, this is my close friend, Miss Tang Xue. Miss Tang, this is my old man, Wang Tian."
Tang Li Xue politely bowed her head and greeted with a soft gentle voice: "Tang Xue pay respects to Minister Wang Tian."
Her trembling voice could no longer cover her nervousness and panic.
Even though she looked pitiful like a frightened rabbit right now, but Wang Tian did not intend to pay any attention to her.
Wang Tian asked Wang Shan with a caring tone instead: "Do you already have breakfast, Tian''er? If you are hungry, I will ask the servant to prepare it right now."
"No, no, no... I already had breakfast... I am full." Wang Shan replied while ncing worriedly at Tang Li Xue as if he was afraid that Tang Li Xue would cry because Wang Tian hadpletely ignored her.
Wang Shan quickly went on Wang Tian''s back and started to give him a massage while trying to persuade him: "Old man, can you give me some face? Miss Tang is so pitiful. She... She really needs our help! Can you help her, please? This will be thest time, okay?!"
Wang Tian rolled his eyes disdainfully and replied: "How many times have you already said this to me? You always say this will be thest time, but you keeping to me and asking me to help your concubines!"
Wang Shan quickly denied this and shouted: "This time is really different than before. It is not about money, gold, releasing guilty rtives from jail, or something vulgar like that~!"
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips puckered slightly when she heard Wang Shan''s words.
''So, he had already brought many other girls to ask his father for help~! Sigh... So, that is the reason why his father treated me so coldly~! This damn yboy~!'' Tang Li Xue cursed Wang Shan in her heart.
But Tang Li Xue also secretly felt relieved as she thought: ''I thought this Wang Tian had already noticed my identity as a fox using his divine sense. It seems I only think too much about it.''
"Oh? Really not any about those?" Wang Tian nced suspiciously at Tang Li Xue.
Wang Shan quickly added with a persuasion tone: "Of course~! Uh, Miss Tang''s parents are dying, so..."
"So, you want to ask me to bring Imperial Alchemist to treat them? Dream on~!" Wang Tian quickly interrupted with an annoyed tone.
Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head and denied it: "No, Minister Wang, a small person like me really does not have the courage to ask you to do that. I only hoped that Minister Wang can help me to go out of this city as soon as possible, so I can meet my dying parent for onest time."
Wang Tian squinted his eyes even more suspiciously and asked: "Oh? So, you want me to help you pass the sealing protection formation and go out of this Imperial City?"
Wang Shan quickly helped Tang Li Xue and replied: "That is right~! Old man, it should not be hard for you to do that, right? You only need to help Miss Tang out of this city! Well, I also want to apany Miss Tang to meet her dying parents, so please add me too, okay?!"
Wang Tian still did not say anything as he kept staring at Tang Li Xue to measure her carefully.
After a few seconds of the silent tense atmosphere, Wang Tian finally spoke to Tang Li Xue still with a tone filled with suspicion: "Why don''t you tell me your parents'' location and your parents'' names, then I would send my people to escort your parents here to meet you instead?"
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in disbelief and instantly became dumbfounded after hearing Wang Tian''s words.
"What a great idea, old man~!" Wang Shan eximed in awe at his father''s suggestion.
Chapter 654: Blessing in Disguise!
Tang Li Xue hastily tried to reject Wang Tian''s offer in a flustered manner: "No, I... That... Uhh... How could I dare to trouble Minister Wang Tian and his people to escort my parents here?"
Tang Li Xue immediately put on her pitiful-looking sad expression again and continued to say: "Besides that, I am afraid my dying parents cannot stand too much shake on the way here... What if my dying parents passed away before they could get here?"
Wang Shan nodded in agreement and replied with a gloomy expression: "You are right. Your parents should be too sickly and very weak right now. They surely could not withstand the shake on the way here."
"You do not need to worry about that. I will send one of our Wang Family''s physicians to see your parents. Our Wang Family''s physician will make sure the condition of your dying parents does not deteriorate on their way here." Wang Tian added one more help to Tang Li Xue.
"Old man~! It is really hard to believe that you are so kind this time~!"Wang Shan''s gloomy expression became excited again after he heard wang Tian''s words.
Wang Shan quickly exined to Tang Li Xue to reassure her: "Our Wang Family''s physicians might not be as good as Imperial Alchemists, but they are not that much worse either than those Imperial Alchemists."
"Miss Tang, you do not need to worry about your parents'' condition anymore. With our Wang Family''s physician, your parents'' sickness might even possibly be cured~!" Wang Shan tried tofort Tang Li Xue.
While Wang Shanforted her, Tang Li Xue''s mind was thinking fast as she carefully paid attention to Wang Tian''s every word to try to read what was he thinking right now.
''Did this sly old man already know my identity as a fox, and he was just ying with me right now? No, it should not be... If he had found out about that, he should have already made a move to suppress and catch me.'' Tang Li Xue secretly deduced in her mind.
''All right, as long as he did not find out my identity as a fox, it means I should still have some chance. But still, this sly old man should already have some suspicion on me right now. Tsk, damn it~! What should I do right now?'' Tang Li Xue anxiously thought.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue really wanted to just retreat away from here.
This Wang Tian was clearly a cunning old human with many decades of experience in the Imperial Court.
Just like a veteran actor sees an amateur actor''s acting performance, Tang Li Xue''s acting and pretense might seem ridiculous and full of ws in front of this Wang Tian.
Tang Li Xue could faintly sense from Wang Tian''s stare that he was looking at her as if he was looking at a clown performing on the stage.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue clearly could not just retreat away from this Wang Tian without showing any of her efforts since it would only make him more suspicious of her.
At that time, Wang Tian might even forcefully seize her to interrogate her true motive to approach his third son, Wang Shan.
Even though she was acting poorly and full of ws in front of Wang Tian''s eyes, she clearly must continue her acting until the end to not make Wang Tian''s suspicion of her worsened.
Tang Li Xue secretly thanked Wang Shan for his yboy behavior.
Yes, if Wang Shan did not often bring many girls to ask for Wang Tian''s help, Wang Tian''s suspicion of Tang Li Xue might be a lot worse than now.
At least for now, Tang Li Xue guessed that Wang Tian might think she only covet Wang Shan''s wealth and authority as his son.
Tang Li Xue immediately put on a d expression and said: "Really? My... My parents'' sickness can be cured by your family''s physician? I... I am so d~! I really do not know anymore how I could thank Brother Wang Shan and Minister Wang Tian~! Please ept my kowtow~!"
Tang Li Xue hastily kneeled in front of Wang Shan and Wang Tian, but before she could kowtow, Wang Tian quickly waved his hand to prevent her to do that.
Wang Tian''s powerful spiritual Qi raised Tang Li Xue''s body and forced her to stand up again.
"You do not need kowtow to me. Just tell me your parents'' name and their location. I will send my people and my family''s physician to escort them here today." Wang Tian said to Tang Li Xue.
"Thank you very much, Minister Wang Tian, for your generosity~! My father''s name is Tang San, and my mother''s name is Xiao Wu. They lived in a small town on the east of this Imperial City. My father is a cksmith in that small town." Tang Li Xue delightfully told Wang Tian about her parents'' information.
Of course, all of that information was made up by her. It was allpletely fake!
However, Tang Li Xue really did not have any other choice right now!
Since she was already lying, then she could only lie to the end!
At least Tang Li Xue must wait until Wang Tian let down his guard, and she had a chance to run away from here!
After that, Wang Tian took out amunication talisman from his spatial ring and contacted his people outside the Imperial City to go to find the military physician, then brought him to escort Tang Li Xue''s parents together.
"All right... My people are already on their way there now. You only need to wait here patiently, and my people will bring your parents here today." Wang Tian said to Tang Li Xue.
With her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue detected a faint mocking tone from Wang Tian''s way of speaking.
Tang Li Xue felt even more suffocated after she heard Wang Tian''s words, and she almost cough a mouthful of blood in aggravation.
This Wang Tian clearly did not n to give Tang Li Xue any way out.
"Let''s go, Miss Tang~! I will take you to see my mother too while we wait for your parents toe here." Wang Shan invited Tang Li Xue in a happy mood.
But Tang Li Xue did not have time to pay any attention to Wang Shan since Tang Li Xue''s mind was too busy thinking about how to get out of here before Wang Tian verified her lies!
Just when Tang Li Xue felt extremely anxious and helpless...
Wang Tian suddenly received an urgent call from hismunication talisman.
"What?! A group of intruders sneaked into Imperial Pce and nned to catch Your Majesty~?!" Wang Tian eximed as he stood up with a solemn expression filled with killing intent.
Both Tang Li Xue and Wang Shan felt suffocated by Wang Tian''s thick killing intent.
Even Tang Li Xue felt extremely ufortable right now, so Wang Shan should feel a lot worse than her.
Fortunately, Wang Tian immediately restrained his thick killing intent before Wang Shan fainted.
"So, how about Your Majesty''s condition right now? Did Your Majesty get hurt?" Wang Tian asked anxiously while he shed, and he flew directly into Imperial Pce at his full speed.
Wang Shan was thrown off a few meters back because of the shockwave while Tang Li Xue only took a few steps back.
But in her heart, Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief: ''Sigh... That was a close one. I almost get caught by that sly old man. Fortunately, something suddenly happened in the Imperial Pce, so he no longer has time to pay any attention to me.''
After calming down, Tang Li Xue quickly realized in amazement: ''Wait a minute... A group of intruders sneaked into the Imperial Pce... and they nned to catch Your Majesty... Don''t tell me those two foxes really did it?!''
Tang Li Xue put her slender finger on her smooth chin and frowned in worry while thinking deeply...
At this time, Wang Shan had already stood up and approached Tang Li Xue again. He was uninjured, but his appearance was quite messy right now.
"Miss Tang, are you all right?" Wang Shan asked Tang Li Xue with a worried tone.
Tang Li Xue smiled at Wang Shan. She shook her head and replied: "Brother Wang do not need to worry, I am all right. But ording to Minister Wang Tian''s urgent words, something should have happened in the Imperial Pce."
"I hope everything will be all right. If something happened to Your Majesty, our dynasty might face a crisis." Wang Shan worriedly said.
"I am also really worried about Your Majesty and Minister Wang Tian. How about we go to the Imperial Pce too to check what happened there?" Tang Li Xue tried to persuade Wang Shan to go together to the Imperial Pce.
She clearly would not be able to enter the Imperial Pce alone, but it would be a different story if she went there with Wang Shan!
"No, no, no... That is too dangerous~! Did you hear what my father said just now?! There is a group of intruders sneaking into the Imperial Pce~! If we identally meet them, we will be in great danger~!" Wang Shan hastily rejected Tang Li Xue''s persuasion with an anxious tone.
This time, Tang Li Xue no longer hesitates as she used her [Mystic Whisper] on Wang Shan!
"Let''s go~! Bring me to enter the Imperial Pce right now!" Tang Li Xue''s words prated straight into Wang Shan''s deepest consciousness, and he instantly fell into her control.
Chapter 655: Mind Game with People as Chess Pieces!
Wang Shan''s strength was only at Qi Condensation Stage, and it was actually attained by consuming a lot of resources and pills which made the foundation of his cultivation seem vain.
With that, Wang Shan surely could not resist Tang Li Xue''s [Mystic Whisper] and instantly fell under her control so easily.
"Yes, Miss Tang!" Wang Shan replied with a nk look on his face.
Wang Shan led Tang Li Xue to ride on the luxurious carriage. They hastily went out from the Wang Shan father''s manor and headed straight to Imperial Pce too.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue actually had two options she could do at this moment.
The first option, she could just head to the Imperial City''s gate right now and patiently wait there until those two foxes in the Imperial Pce sessfully turned off the sealing protection formation.
After that, she could immediately take that chance to be the first one to break out of the Imperial City before anyone else.
But Tang Li Xue did not believe that the reckless n of those two foxes would go that smoothly, thus she decided to take the second option instead.
She chose to head toward the Imperial Pce and look at the situation there first.
Even if the n of those two foxes failed, the situation in the Imperial Pce would be very messy and chaotic.
Tang Li Xue nned to wait for a chance in the middle of the chaotic situation to find the formation core and find the right time to turn off the sealing protection formation!
Of course, if the reckless n of those two foxes really had seeded, then Tang Li Xue would be a few steps behind them by heading to the Imperial Pce.
It also means Li Xue would definitely lose her chance to win this treasure game.
Yes, by heading to the Imperial Pce, it meant Tang Li Xue was gambling that the reckless n of those two foxes would fail.
When Tang Li Xue was thinking deeply, their luxurious carriage arrived at the huge grand gates of the Imperial Pce.
It only took fifteen minutes or so for Wang Shan''s luxurious carriage to reach the Imperial Pce because the location of the Imperial Pce and Wang Tian''s Manor was not that far. Both of them were located at the center of Imperial City.
In front of the Imperial Pce''s double grand gates, there were already more than fifty royal guards and imperial soldiers guarding.
"Stop~!" One of the royal guards shouted at their luxurious carriage.
Wang Shan instantly fell irritated when a mere royal guard dared to stop his luxurious carriage.
There was the ''Wang'' logo on every Wang Family''s carriage, and no one should dare to stop their carriage at the normal times.
Unfortunately, they were on high alert period, so the royal guards and imperial soldiers could only dutifully do their tasks ording to their higher-up''s instructions.
When several royal guards surrounded their luxurious carriage, Wang Shan immediately stuck his head out from the window and shouted angrily: "How dare you block Wang Family''s carriage?! Go away~! Open the gates so I can enter the Imperial Pce right now~!"
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue hastily put Little Loki and Yaya into her system''s pet space, so no one would suspect their group.
But those royal guards and imperial soldiers did not immediately open the gates like Wang Shan''s ordered to do.
Some of the royal guards quickly reported it to their higher-ups, and they waited for a few minutes until the royal guards'' captain went out to meet them.
The royal guards'' captain was also wearing silver armor like the other royal guards, but the appearance of his silver armor looked a lot better than the other royal guards.
"Ahahaha, so it''s Third Young Master Wang Shan. I am really sorry. My subordinates are still new, so they do not recognize you yet." The royal guard''s captain politely said whileughing friendly at Wang Shan.
Wang Shan still felt angry and immediately blurted out: "Captain Lu, you should teach your subordinates better. How could they not know of the Wang Family''s logo on my carriage?! If it wasn''t me who was in this carriage but my father, they would definitely be severely punished already."
"I know, Third Young Master. I will definitely teach them more harshlyter. But Third Young Master, may I know why you came to the Imperial Pce today? Just so you know, there are dangerous intruders sneaking into the Imperial Pce this morning, so the situation in the Imperial Pce may not be suitable for you to visit right now." Royal Guard''s captain tried to persuade Wang Shan.
Wang Shan rolled his eyes and replied: "I already know about that from my father. But I stille here because I am really worried about the safety and condition of Your Majesty and my father. So, do not waste my time anymore, and just let me pass already~!"
The Wang Shan''s reason was surely strange and wed since Tang Li Xue forcefully used [Mystic Whisper] on him against his will.
Wang Shan was a timid man, so he usually would not dare toe to the Imperial Pce if not for his father''s order, especially there were dangerous intruders hiding there right now.
Tang Li Xue could only nervously hope that the royal guard''s captain would not realize Wang Shan''s strange behavior.
Royal Guard''s captain really wanted to say that there would be nothing you could do even if you entered the Imperial Pce right now, and you might make the situation deteriorate even further.
Of course, he would not dare to say it right in front of Wang Shan''s face.
Royal Guard''s captain hesitated for a while since it would be bad if the intruders caught Wang Shan and used him as a hostageter.
Tang Li Xue secretly took a nce at the hesitating Royal Guard''s captain from beside Wang Shan.
She could immediately guess what the Royal Guard''s captain was thinking and the reason for his hesitation right now.
''An expert at the peak of Core Formation Stage, huh... Sigh, my [Mystic Whisper] should only be able to affect him for one moment at best...'' Tang Li Xue judged in her mind.
But if she did not say or do anything at this point, the Royal Guard''s captain might really not let Wang Shan and her enter the Imperial Pce today.
So, she decided to say something to help Wang Shan out: "I am sorry, Captain Lu, but we must enter the Imperial Pce right now. I know what are you worrying about, but you do not need to worry. Minister Wang Tian had already entrusted Brother Wang''s safety to me, so those intruders would definitely not be able to touch Brother Wang under my protection."
Tang Li Xue released the pressure from her cultivation to prove her strength to the Royal Guard''s captain.
Of course, she was only at the early Foundation Establishment Stage, and it was clearly far from enough to impress the Royal Guard''s captain, so Tang Li Xue secretly used another hidden means.
[Eyes of Illusion]~!
Tang Li Xue''s captivating topaz blue eyes were shining with dim light, and the mysterious dim light reflected on the eyes of the Royal Guard''s captain.
In that instant, Tang Li Xue''s pressure magnified many times in front of the Royal Guard''s captain!
"Early Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator~!" The Royal Guard''s captain eximed in shock.
Tang Li Xue quickly restrained her cultivation pressure until the Royal Guard''s captain could not sense it anymore.
But under her white veil, Tang Li Xue''s expression turned a bit pale as her mental energy had consumed quite a lot.
Just now, Tang Li Xue tried her best to create a more realistic illusion to fool the Royal Guard''s captain.
Creating a realistic illusion that could deceive the sharp senses of the peak of the Core Formation Stage was clearly not an easy task to do.
Fortunately, she had really seeded.
The Royal Guard''s captain stared at Tang Li Xue with a pair of respectful eyes and said in a more polite tone: "Young Miss has very high cultivation at such a young age. I, Captain Lu, really admire you very much."
The Royal Guard''s captain felt convinced by Tang Li Xue''s strength, so he no longer hesitated and shouted to his subordinates: "All right, open the gates right now and let this carriage in~!"
Tang Li Xue nodded at the Royal Guard''s captain and muttered with a gentle smile on her face: "Thank you very much for your trust, Captain Lu! Please do not worry, I promise I will definitely protect Brother Wang''s safety."
The Royal Guard''s captain nodded back at Tang Li Xue with a kind smile on his face and warned them once again: "You can enter the Imperial Pce now, but please remember to always be really careful at all times. The strength of the intruders is not low, and they are really good at hiding."
Wang Shan''s expression was filled with an overjoyed smile as he stared at Tang Li Xue with an infatuated expression.
Tang Li Xue quickly reminded Wang Shan: "Let''s go, Brother Wang~! Let''s pass the gates before they close them again."
Wang Shan woke up from his infatuated state and quickly ordered the driver to drive their luxurious carriage to enter the Imperial Pce.
Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief when she saw their carriage finally pass the front gates and enter the Imperial Pce.
''The real battle starts from here... In this mind game with these people as our chess pieces, I will definitely be the one who will emerge victorious in the end~!'' Tang Li Xue resolutely thought as her fighting spirit burned even more fiercely.
Chapter 656 656: Half Success!
Chapter 656 Chapter 656: Half Sess! ?
Sessfully entering the Imperial Pce was only the first step for Tang Li Xue.
The next thing she had to do right now was to look for information about the current situation of the Emperor.
Tang Li Xue needed to know whether the reckless n of the two foxes was sessful or not in order for her to devise the next n.
But it was not hard for Tang Li Xue since she only need to order Wang Shan to do it for her with [Mystic Whisper].
Under Tang Li Xue''s [Mystic Whisper] effect, Wang Shan pulled some patrolling royal guards and questioned them more clearly about the current situation.
Tang Li Xue previously guessed that the reckless n of the two foxes would probably fail, but the actual situation right now surprised her instead.
ording to the information given by the patrolling royal guards, those intruders might have managed to sneak into the Imperial Pce by disguising themselves as guards.
After sessfully entering the Imperial Pce, they changed their disguise from guards to maids, and they took a chance to seduce the Emperor early in the morning when the Emperor headed to the library.
Surprisingly, the intruders'' trick worked extremely well, and the lustful Emperor really fell into their honey trap trick.
When Tang Li Xue heard this part, her pink lips puckered slightly in displeasure.
''What a stupid Emperor is this?! He probably already had more than a dozen concubines in his imperial harem and yet he still got seduced by those two vixens?! What an idiot~!'' Tang Li Xue thought disdainfully about the lustful Emperor.
But despite Tang Li Xue''s mercilessint, the Emperor actually could not bepletely med for it.
The reason was actually because the charm and beauty of Fox Race were undeniably above the Human Race.
Even though the charm and beauty of those two foxes still could not bepared with Tang Li Xue as Imperial Sun and Moon Fox, but the Emperor still clearly could not resist their temptation at all.
Tang Li Xue secretly recalled the appearance of those two foxes in her mind.
The petite fox girl was a charming little loli with long khaki-colored hair bound with the twin tails hairstyle. She might look childish and innocent, but those would certainly attract the urge of the men to protect her instead.
While the tall fox girl wearing a green dress not only has a beautiful face but also a perfect sexy figure. The most attractive about her was her pair of smooth long legs. If she wore a pair of silk stockings on her smooth long legs and a Short Cheongsam Dress, her charm would probably be doubled in an instant.
Tang Li Xue: ''.....''
Tang Li Xue suddenly thought it was not entirely the Emperor''s fault for being seduced by those two vixens.
Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head to clear any distraction from her mind and continued to hear the next part of the story from the patrolling royal guards.
At first, the n of those two foxes went pretty smoothly.
The lustful Emperor was really attracted by their charm and beauty when the two of them were disguised as passing by maids, then he invited both of them to drink tea together in his courtyard.
Of course, the two disguising foxes would not refuse the lustful Emperor''s offer and followed the lustful Emperor to his courtyard together.
Under their continuous temptation on the way to the Emperor''s courtyard, the lustful Emperor could no longer restrain himself, and he impatiently dragged the two of them into his room.
Well, this was the true turning point for everyone.
Even Tang Li Xue was fidgeting impatiently to hear if the two foxes seeded or not.
But just like Tang Li Xue had expected before, the two foxes actually failed to catch the Emperor even after he had already lowered his guard for them.
The reason for their failure was also just like Tang Li Xue had thought before. It was because they failed to realize that the Emperor had a pretty high cultivation level, but he deliberately hid it from everyone, except his most trusted people!
Yes... The two foxes never expected that the Emperor''s cultivation had already reached the peak of the Core Formation Stage, only a half step away from reaching the Nascent Soul Stage!
However, Tang Li Xue thought that those two foxes were really lucky since if the lustful Emperor''s cultivation had already reached the Nascent Soul Stage, those two foxes would definitely have been caught by him right now.
In the end, the Emperor stillcked a lot of fighting experience against powerful foes, so he could barely defend himself against those two foxes for a few breaths.
The Emperor''s closest bodyguard squad, the Shadow Guards, immediately sensed their battle from in front of the room, and they hastily barged into the Emperor''s room to help the Emperor fight against those two foxes.
The two foxes quickly noticed that they could no longer catch the Emperor and used him as their hostage in that situation, so they decided to hastily run away from there.
After that, the Emperor ordered the Imperial Pce to bepletely sealed, and no one could go out from the Imperial Pce until those two intruders got caught.
In short, those two intruders should be still inside the Imperial Pce, and they were currently hiding or disguising as someone else.
Until that part, Tang Li Xue really thought the n of those two foxes really failed... But the next information from those patrolling guards made Tang Li Xue amazed at them.
Those two foxes actually had a crucial backup n that they had not told Tang Li Xue before!
Yes, they actually managed to poison the Emperor!
''Woah, to think they take the chance when they were seducing that Emperor to poison him too~!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in amazement.
Tang Li Xue guessed that the Emperor''s poison should be caused by the tall fox girl''s divine abilities since her divine abilities were mostly about wood and nt control.
Currently, the Emperor''s condition was quite worrying.
Those Imperial alchemists had already tried their best to detoxify the poison, but they could only slow down the effect of the poison so far.
Ten minutes ago or so, the intruders even left a threatening letter to them.
Those intruders threatened that they must open the Imperial Pce''s gates and let them out, then turn off the Sealing Protection Formation.
After they did all of those, the intruders promised to give the antidote to cure the Emperor''s poison to them.
The current situation in the Imperial Pce was extremely tense and worrisome.
Everyone was suspicious of each other since the intruders might be disguised as any one of them.
Their higher-ups, the Empress Dowager, princes, generals, and ministers were debating very fiercely right now.
On one side, they worried about the Emperor''s condition and wanted to fulfill the intruder''s demands to obtain the poison''s antidote, but on the other side, they clearly could not believe the intruders'' words at all.
After hearing all the information, Tang Li Xue was very surprised that the n of those two foxes had actually gone that far.
In Tang Li Xue''s opinion, their n basically had already half sess!
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned solemn as she thought: ''No, the current situation may not actually look as good as it seems.''
''ording to my knowledge of ancient dynasties, there is a pretty high chance that some people or princes may use this chance to kill the Emperor and put the me on those two foxes, so they will have a chance to be the next Emperor.'' Tang Li Xue deduced in her mind.
''So, before the Emperor''s situation deteriorates or even loses his life, I must take advantage of this opportunity to make my move!'' Tang Li Xue determined firmly in her heart.
After Wang Shan let the patrolling royal guards continue to do their task, Tang Li Xue used her [Mystic Whisper] on Wang Shan again and ordered: "Take me to the ce where the formation core is ced."
Wang Shan nodded with a nk expression on his face.
On their way, they met with a lot of patrolling royal guards and imperial soldiers, but with Wang Shan''s escort, no one suspected Tang Li Xue at all even though her appearance might be the most suspicious with a veil and hood covering her face and head.
But Tang Li Xue''s luck did notst long since they immediately blocked before they could even approach the formation department building.
Wang Shan tried to coerce and threaten the royal guards and imperial soldiers who guarding the formation department building, but they still did not let him and Tang Li Xue proceed even one step closer to the formation department building.
Tang Li Xue carefully observed the formation department building and thought: ''There are at least more than one hundred royal guards and imperial soldiers guarding this ce. Many of them even have the Core Formation Stage cultivation.''
''I bet there should be one or two Nascent Soul Stage cultivators that secretly guarding inside there. The security in this ce is too tight.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head in frustration.
Chapter 657 657: Make the Situation Even More Chaotic!
Chapter 657 Chapter 657: Make the Situation Even More Chaotic!
No matter how much Tang Li Xue tried to think, she still could not find any way to sneak into this tightly guarded formation department building.
''Sigh... It seems my n to sneak into this formation department building is really hopeless.'' Tang Li Xue thought in frustration.
Wang Shan stared at the depressed Tang Li Xue and became worried about her, so he tried to say something tofort her: "Miss Tang, you do not need to be that sad. If we find my father and ask him to help us to..."
Tang Li Xue became a bit annoyed and said: "Can you please shut up and let me think calmly for a few minutes?"
''Asking me to meet that cunning old Wang Tian again in this situation?! Are you kidding me?! Isn''t it the same as asking me tomit suicide?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in annoyance.
Wang Shan saw Tang Li Xue''s mood and expression be worse, so he did not dare to say anything to her anymore.
Tang Li Xue put her slender finger on her smooth chin and started to ponder with a solemn expression: ''The most tightly guarded ces in the Imperial Pce at this time should be the formation department building and the Emperor''s bedroom.''
''Even so, it does not mean that there are no guards at the other ces. Actually, there are so many guards and soldiers that kept patrolling all around the Imperial Pce to track down those two intruder foxes, but the strength and cultivation of those patrolling guards and soldiers are not high.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead as she felt really helpless in the current situation.
She really could not think of any way other than to wait for the n of the two foxes to seed and get out of this city before them...
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly remembered that the cooldown of her [Two Moons] divine ability had finished just recently, so she decided to summon out her perfect copy.
Well... At least, using two heads to think should be better than one head, right?
But before that, Tang Li Xue did not want Wang Shan to see her summoning out her perfect copy, so she just made him fall asleep behind the ornamental tree on the side of the road with her [Mystic Whisper].
[Twin Moons]~!
An identical charming slender figure appeared right in front of Tang Li Xue.
The perfect copy opened her topaz blue eyes and a yful captivating smile bloomed on her stunningly beautiful face.
"Yo, long time no see~! Wow, I... Uhh, I mean we actually have a lot of new abilities right now~! Good job, my trueself~! Please, keep up your good work~!" The perfect copy encouraged Tang Li Xue with a joyous mood.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and urged her perfect copy: "All right, stop ying around~! Our situation is very bad right now. We had already lost the initiative because of those two foxes'' n, and we might get eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival because of them."
The perfect copy shook her head disdainfully at the real Tang Li Xue and said: "My true self, since when you became so upright and serious~?! Even your mind bes less agile and flexible than before."
Tang Li Xue''s mind and her perfect copy''s mind were connected with each other, so Tang Li Xue could instantly know what her perfect copy was thinking about right now.
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and disbelief at her perfect copy''s crazy idea.
Her perfect copy sneered evilly and spoke with a yful tone: "Lost the initiative? The n of those two foxes almost seeded?! What a nonsense~!"
"Since the chess game between them already started without us joining it, then what we must do right now is to flip the entire chessboard~!" Her perfect copy told her idea to Tang Li Xue.
"You are really insane~! But... that might really work wonder!" Tang Li Xue pondered while murmuring in agreement.
Her perfect copy nodded and added: "Yes, rather than letting the situation remain stagnant like this, it would be better for us if we go on a rampage and make a riot everywhere in this already tense Imperial Pce! I am sure our chance will surelye soon after that!"
The perfect copy sneered yfully again and whispered to the real Tang Li Xue: "And also, are you forgetting something really important from the seventh treasure game?"
Tang Li Xue pped her forehead and eximed: "Damn, how could I forget about something that important?!"
"Hehehehe... That is right~! In the seventh treasure game, that me fox could still survive after you won the game. At that time, it sessfully stole the spatial ring containing the City Lord''s hidden treasures from the Cult Leader." The perfect copy exined her n to the real Tang Li Xue with a smug smile on her face.
"I wonder if we can imitate that me fox to survive this treasure game. But this time, we can try to rob the entire imperial treasuries instead! The reward should be a lot better than the mere City Lord''s hidden treasures, right?!" The perfect copy ended her exnation while putting on a smug expression.
Tang Li Xue was instantly dumbfounded by her perfect copy''s ridiculous n.
But the more Tang Li Xue thought about it, the more she found that her perfect copy''s insane n might really have a quite high chance of seeding.
After making up her mind, Tang Li Xue nodded in agreement and said: "Okay then, I, Little Loki, and Yaya will create the riot andmotion around the Imperial Pce, while your task will be to look for the Imperial Treasury room and find a chance to rob it."
The perfect copy grasped her fist excitedly and replied: "No problem~! I like this task very much~!"
When the perfect copy turned around and dashed away, Tang Li Xue quickly grabbed her hand and pointed at Wang Shan while saying: "Wait a minute... Take this guy with you too~! He will definitely be very useful to you. With his identity as Wang Tian''s pampered third son, you can move around freely in this Imperial Pce without being suspected by those guards and soldiers."
"Sigh... Okay~!" Her perfect copy made a reluctant expression, but in the end, she replied while making an okay gesture with her fingers.
The real Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], then swiftly got away to look for the least guarded ces in this Imperial Pce.
Meanwhile, her perfect copy violently pped the sleeping Wang Shan until his cheeks were swollen, and he woke up in great pain.
Then she used [Mystic Whisper] on him again to make him obey her every order.
Tang Li Xue herself actually did not really like her perfect copy''s insane n very much since she would need to kill many people to make the current stagnant situation a lot more chaotic.
But it could not be helped since she currently could not think of any other choices at this point.
Surprisingly, the first least guarded ce Tang Li Xue had found was the beautiful imperial garden.
Well, itpletely made sense since no one would have any mood to enjoy the beautiful imperial garden in this extremely tense situation.
Despite that, there were at least twenty patrolling royal guards in this beautiful imperial garden, but the highest cultivation among them was only at the Early Foundation Establishment Stage.
No one realized it when Tang Li Xue entered this beautiful imperial garden in her [Ethereal Form].
Tang Li Xue admired the beautiful imperial garden for a few moments before she secretly let out Yaya and Little Loki from her system''s pet space.
There were many pink peach trees, colorful flowers, and beautiful butterflies in this imperial garden, which made it look like a small paradise.
Even Yaya flew and yed around extremely happily in this imperial garden after turning herself invisible with [Traceless Wind Cover], while Little Loki sat on the grass and yawnedzily as usual.
"All right, you guys stop ying around! We have a lot of things to do right now!" Tang Li Xue whispered to Yaya and Little Loki with telepathy, and she also exined what they needed to do right now.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to use her [Mystic Whisper] to control many guards and soldiers with weaker strength and cultivation, then ordered them to execute the n for her.
But she immediately gave up that intention after she recalled that the City Lord guard''s captain in the seventh treasure game could use treasure on the controlled guards to track her location.
Different from the previous City Lord''s mansion, there are many Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators in this Imperial Pce right now.
If those Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators also used thepass-like treasure to track her like what had happened in the seventh treasure game, there would be no way for her to escape from them!
It would certainly be the end of her in this Foxes Hunting Festival at that time!
"Sigh, forget it... Let''s just do it in a direct way~! Let''s start, Yaya, Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue urged Little Loki and Yaya with a solemn expression.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki silently approached the patrolling royal guards and soldiers in an invisible state, and then they suddenlyunched a fatal sneak attack on them!
[Scythe w Qi]~!
[Compressed Wind de]~!
[Moonlight sh]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
How could guards and soldiers with the strength of the early Foundation Establishment Stage face their lethal sudden attacks?!
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki easily ughtered all of them in only a few breaths before those twenty or so royal guards and soldiers could react!
Those killed royal guards and soldiers turned into a group of white light and dispersed into nothingness without leaving any trace, so no one could use their corpse to trace it back to Tang Li Xue.
It could be said this condition alone had already helped Tang Li Xue and the others a lot in any treasure game since the other ''NPC'' could not use the vanishing corpse to track them.
Tang Li Xue condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and controlled them to burn the entire Imperial Pce!
"With this, the tense but orderly situation will inevitably explode and be a lot more chaotic! It will also force them to make a decision while giving me some opening to exploit." Tang Li Xue muttered with a cold expression.
Tang Li Xue dispersed her [Sun Dragon ws], hastily put Little Loki and Yaya back into her System''s pet space, used [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy, and then un-summoned her perfect copy.
With that, no matter how smart the people who investigated it, they would never find any clue!
Chapter 658 658: Finally Losing Patience!
Chapter 658 Chapter 658: Finally Losing Patience!
The deep blue mes spread around very fast burning the entire Imperial Garden.
In only a dozen breaths or so, the deep blue mes had already set many buildings around the Imperial Garden aze.
The patrolling guards and soldiers immediately realized the violent mes in the Imperial Garden, but it was still toote since the deep blue mes had already spread around too much because of the strong wind.
They acted rather quickly and hastily collected the water to put down the mes, but that was only a futile effort since the deep blue mes were too hot, and they were not afraid of water.
Before the water in their bucket could reach the deep blue mes, the water would have already evaporated.
Tang Li Xue could still use and control the deep blue mes of pride without the Phoenix of Pride to boost it, but the power of the mes would be a lot less powerful.
Tang Li Xue would rather use the other powerful divine abilities in battle if there was no Phoenix of Pride, but the deep blue mes of pride clearly worked wonders in this situation.
Only when several Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators made their move, the deep blue mes finally could be put out.
Those several Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators used their divine sense to scan the burned-down Imperial Garden and the ces around there, but they failed to find anyone suspicious.
In the end, they could only conclude that those intruders became impatient and started to make anothermotion to force them to fulfill those intruder''s previous demands.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was still wandering around with Wang Shan, and they were quite far away from the burned-down Imperial Garden, so no one suspected them.
Her perfect copy also had already done one of her tasks. She managed to find the location of the Imperial Treasury Room with Wang Shan''s help.
Tang Li Xue made Wang Shan lean on the nearby pavilion and fell asleep there before she used her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy again.
This time, there was no need for them to say anything to each other since they already had their own respective tasks to do, but the perfect copy still yfully said something to Tang Li Xue: "Hey, I just remembered that I do not have any spatial treasure to store the imperial treasures~!"
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "Do you think I have it? I came here empty-handed too~! Just borrow it from Wang Shan, I am sure with his noble status he should have a very spacious spatial ring."
"Sigh, what a sinful girl you are~! You not only exploit him so much, but you even rob him of his belongings! I am very sure that he will be extremely traumatic of any beautiful woman after this." The perfect copy sighed pitifully at Wang Shan.
Tang Li Xue chuckled at her perfect copy and muttered: "Be traumatic after this? He is only an NPC in this treasure game. Do you really think he will still exist after we won this treasure game?"
From Tang Li Xue''s point of view, Wang Shan or the other humans here were only like NPCs in Virtual Reality games. After she wins this treasure game, they would cease to exist like those NPCs in Virtual Reality games after she turned off the game console.
The perfect copy''s mind and Tang Li Xue''s mind were connected to each other, so she immediately understood what Tang Li Xue meant.
The perfect copy frowned deeply and warned the real Tang Li Xue: "Your mindset is not wrong, but you really should not indulge in it too much, or you might really lose yourst trace of ''humanity'' even after this Foxes Hunting Festival is over."
Tang Li Xue pondered her perfect copy''s warning and nodded at her with a solemn expression.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], then ran separately with her perfect copy to find the other least guarded ce while her perfect copy would be heading toward the Imperial Treasury room with Wang Shan leading the way for her.
On her way, Tang Li Xue''s mind was upied with her perfect copy''s warning as she thought: ''She is right... I seem to think a lot less about the worth of human lives right now after ying several treasure games against humans. So, this Foxes Hunting Festival also slowly made me numb to the matter of killing the humans?''
''But I had also already defeated and killed so many foxes too? So, it slowly brainwashed me to kill anyone as long as I got the order to do it like an obedient killing machine?'' Tang Li Xue tried to guess in her mind.
Tang Li Xue shook her head to clear her mind of any distracting thoughts.
"Any conspiration is not important. Well, it is not like I can do anything to fight against it with my negligible strength."
"So, the most important thing for me to do right now is to try to get stronger as fast as possible!"
Tang Li Xue smiled in a relieved mood as she concluded with a resolute heart.
But she really appreciated her perfect copy''s warning thatpletely awoke her.
Her perfect copy did not prevent her from killing anyone since it was necessary for them to do it in order to win the treasure game, but her perfect copy warned her to never get used to doing it.
If not, she would probably resolve any problem she met in the future by killing everyone like a mindless beast.
Tang Li Xue stopped thinking about it for now and focused on the task she needed to do.
This time, Tang Li Xue''s target was the Imperial Library.
The Imperial Library was located a bit close to the prince''s and princess''s rooms, but no one had any mood to read any books or any kind of literature in this extremely tense situation, so this Imperial Library was only lightly guarded.
Despite that, there were still around fifty guards and soldiers patrolling in this Imperial Library.
Tang Li Xue hid behind one of the tall bookshelves and silently summoned out Yaya and Little Loki to help her face those fifty guards and soldiers.
"Just like before, we will kill all of them as fast as we can! Are you two ready?" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki and Yaya with a solemn expression.
Yaya and Little Loki also nodded at Tang Li Xue with a spirited expression as if to say they were ready to fight at any time.
Tang Li Xue smiled at them at patted their tiny head gently while saying: "Then let''s go~!"
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki turned invisible using their abilities andunched a sudden sneak attack at the patrolling guards and soldiers!
[Phantom Splitters] plus [Scythe w Qi] x3~!
[Moonlight sh]~!
[Compressed Wind Swords]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
The sudden sneak attack from Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki managed to instantly kill more than ten guards and soldiers!
But different from before, there was actually a strong one with Core Formation Stage cultivation among them this time, and he might be the captain of this patrolling team!
The captain stared angrily at Tang Li Xue''s team and mercilessly stabbed her with the spear in his grasp!
Tang Li Xue dodged the spear attack using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and decisively condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] in one breath!
''Damn it~! It would be bad if he called for backup! I must kill him quickly before he does it~!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth.
Tang Li Xue skillfully controlled a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] to swiftly kill the other guards and soldiers while she focused on facing the patrolling captain!
[Spirit Shock]~!
The patrolling captain suddenly felt very dizzy and staggered a bit.
Tang Li Xue swiftly took this chance to unleash one of her most powerful lethal attacks on the patrolling captain''s vital point!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
But the patrolling captain could react on time and parry Tang Li Xue''s attack with his spear!
Who knew that Tang Li Xue''s smooth palm actually passed through the patrolling captain''s spear like a ghost?!
"An illusion?! This is bad!" The patrolling captain eximed, but it was already toote.
Yes, Tang Li Xue just used [Eyes of Illusion] to fool the patrolling captain''s senses!
Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Shattering Strike] struck the patrolling captain''s back from the right side, made his heart and several of his internal organs explode, and killed him in one strike!
The previous Tang Li Xue might not be able to kill Core Formation Stage cultivators in one strike, but right now, her strength stat has reached her current maximum limit!
After Tang Li Xue killed the patrolling captain, Yaya and Little Loki also finished their task.
The corpses of fifty guards and soldiers turned into white lights and disappeared into nothingness leaving nothing behind.
Tang Li Xue hastily controlled her pair of [Sun Dragon ws] to burn all of the bookshelves!
After the deep blue mes spread and set the entire Imperial Library aze, Tang Li Xue took Little Loki and Yaya into her System''s pet space and used [Swap] to exchange location with her perfect copy before she un-summoned her perfect copy.
Just like before, there would be no trace left to track back to her.
Tang Li Xue nned to repeat it several more times to make the tense situation deteriorate faster, so she could exploit it sooner.
But it seemed she overestimated the patience of those higher-ups, the Empress Dowager, princes, generals, and ministers...
She had only done it twice, but those people could no longer hold it on anymore and immediately decided to fulfil the request of those intruders.
Chapter 659 659: Timely Strike!
Chapter 659 Chapter 659: Timely Strike!
Of course, the people from the Imperial side would not generously let those two intruder foxes go that easily.
With so many think tanks like ministers from various departments and war-hardened generals, they already nned severalyers of traps to intercept those intruders before they could escape out of the Imperial City.
The agreement between them was based on a threat with the Emperor''s life on the line, so it was fated to never be a peaceful one from the very start.
The two foxes should have already known it when they nned to execute their n. It was just Tang Li Xue did not have any more clue about their next n after this.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and said with a solemn expression: "There is no need for me to know about those foxes'' next moves, but I must know every move on the Imperial side."
"If I managed to obtain some crucial information about the Imperial side''s next ns, I could find the most appropriate time when the guard at the Imperial Treasury room became the mostx."
"At that time, I will rob all the Imperial Treasures swiftly before those two foxes can get out from the Imperial City." Tang Li Xue finalized her next n.
Tang Li Xue leisurely sat on the pavilion beside the fishpond and sipped the tea which was served by a maid.
Meanwhile, Wang Shan finally came back after inquiring about the crucial news on the Imperial side that Tang Li Xue urgently needed.
Wang Shan smiled joyously as he sat on the chair at the opposite of Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue generously poured the tea from the teapot onto Wang Shan''s cup and asked with a mesmerizing smile on her stunningly beautiful face: "How about it?"
Wang Shan instantly dazzled and happily told all information he got after inquiring from his father''s several acquaintances.
"Those intruders are really dangerous. They actually dared to burn many important ces in the Imperial Pce, so the ministers and generals feared that those intruders would really burn down the entire Imperial Pce if they continued to do this." Wang Shan worriedly told to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched a bit as she doubtfully thought: ''Burned many important ces? Uhh, I only burned down two ces, right?''
Actually, Tang Li Xue really managed to burn many ces without realizing it since her mes spread out very quickly because of the strong wind.
"After discussing the countermeasure together, the imperial court decided to pretend to agree with the intruders'' requests first in order to minimize the damage, but they nned to secretly set several traps to catch the intruders outside the Imperial Pce instead." Wang Shan continued to say to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue nodded delightfully at the news from Wang Shan.
Because she had already burned down several ces in the Imperial Pce, those people from the imperial court definitely would not want to fight inside the Imperial Pce anymore since they might really burn down the entire Imperial Pce if they did that.
Just as she had wished for, those people from the imperial court nned to move their battlefield outside the Imperial Pce, so their battle would not ruin the Imperial Pce even further!
When the people from the imperial court y with those two foxes outside the Imperial Pceter, she would have an opportunity to execute her own n to rob the Imperial Treasury room.
Step by step everything went ording to her n so far...
"Imperial court even nned to set many other traps outside the Imperial City to make sure that those intruders would not be able to escape." Wang Shan added while sipping the tea to relieve his dry throat.
But Tang Li Xue shook her head while thinking: ''It would be toote by then...''
''If those two foxes managed to go out of this Imperial City even if it was only one step, one of them would immediately count as the winner of this treasure game, and the winner would immediately be teleported out from this treasure game''s space while the rest would be eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival. So, it should be impossible to catch them outside the Imperial City.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
In fact, Tang Li Xue was also gambling this time.
She was betting that she could survive by robbing the Imperial treasures just like the previous Vermillion me Fox could survive after robbing the City Lord''s hidden treasures from the Cult Leader at thest moment.
If she lost this gamble, then she would certainly be eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival like one of those two foxes.
Yes, since there would only be one winner in this treasure game, one of those two foxes would definitely be eliminated.
Despite that, Tang Li Xue did not n to say anything to help or warn the Imperial Court side since the more they split their people to set the trap for those two intruder foxes, the more advantageous it would be for Tang Li Xue since it meant that the guards inside the Imperial Pce would certainly be morex.
Since the people from the Imperial Court side had already started to make their moves, Tang Li Xue no longer had any intention to make any rash move to minimize her chance of getting caught by those people.
All she needed to do right now was wait patiently...
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not remain idle at this time.
After discussing with her perfect copy, she decided to let her perfect copy follow Wang Shan out from the Imperial Pce.
If something untoward happenedter, Tang Li Xue could easily get out of the Imperial Pce with her usual [Swap] tactic.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned for her perfect copy to rob the Imperial Treasury Room alone to be safe, but she immediately realized that the chance of sess would be greater if she did it by herself since she had Loki and Yaya''s help.
Meanwhile, her perfect copy''s new task was to find a way out of the Imperial City with Wang Shan''s help.
Who knows if she could win this treasure game while obtaining the reward for robbing the imperial treasures, right?
As the sun had set and the sky turned dark, both Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Wang Shan had ridden Wang Family''s luxurious carriage and went out of the Imperial Pce without any obstruction.
From the information given by her perfect copy, Tang Li Xue realized that all gates out of the Imperial Pce had already been opened, so the intruders could also easily go out from the Imperial Pce without any hindrance.
Not only that, her perfect copy also saw that the guards in the Imperial Pce were already much morex than before on her way out of the Imperial Pce.
The real Tang Li Xue still sat leisurely in the pavilion as she nced at the starry night sky.
When the enormous transparent golden dome that covered the entire Imperial City had vanished, Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes and muttered: "It seems the time hase~!"
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], then stealthy headed to the Imperial Treasury Warehouse.
Fortunately for Tang Li Xue, the Imperial Treasury Warehouse was located quite far away from the most heavily guarded Emperor''s courtyard, so it should be impossible for the guards in the Emperor''s courtyard toe quickly once themotion breaks out.
Tang Li Xue observed the Imperial Treasury Warehouse carefully and concluded: "As I expect, there are still quite many guards and soldiers guarding this ce. But as long as there is no Nascent Soul Stage cultivator guarding here, My chances of sess should still be quite high."
Tang Li Xue squatted down behind the ornamental tree near the Imperial Treasury Warehouse and secretly took out Little Loki and Yaya from her System''s pet space.
"All right, little ones~! Our task this time might be much more difficult than before, so I hope you two will be more serious~!" Tang Li Xue said as she caressed Little Loki and Yaya''s heads gently.
"Oh, and do not forget to leave a few weaker guards alive. I may need to interrogate them to find the key to open that Imperial Treasury Warehouse." Tang Li Xue added more instructions out of caution.
Little Loki and Yaya nodded at Tang Li Xue with a serious resolute expression.
The three of them turned invisible as they carefully approached the Imperial Treasury Warehouse.
Tang Li Xue sensed the powerful auraing from several guards with her [Extrasensory Perception].
The cultivation level of those powerful guards was at least at the peak of the Core Formation Stage!
But it was already toote for Tang Li Xue to retreat after going this far, so she could only grit her teeth and release her sudden sneak attack to kill many guards at once!
It would be best if she could kill all of them before they could unleash their Martial Soul!
[Cyclone Storm]~!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]~!
[Sun Dragon ws] plus [Sun Dragon Fangs]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
This time, Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki really went all out to kill as many guards as they could in the shortest time!
Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] instantly locked those guards'' movement and senses making them unable to fight them back!
While Yaya''s [Cyclone Storm] which was a huge pir of hurricane condensed from countless dancing sharp wind des sucked so many of those immobilized guards into it.
Just like a gigantic meat grinder, Yaya''s [Cyclone Storm] chopped all of those immobilized guards inside it into minced meat!
But instead of really turning into bloody minced meat, those immobilized guards turned into a group of white lights and dissipated into nothingness instead.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue had already canceled her human form transfiguration and transformed back into her fox form, so she could fight at her full strength!
Her [Sun Dragon Fangs] bit off two powerful guards and instantly killed them before they could react!
While she controlled her pair of [Sun Dragon ws] to hold a huge broadsword condensed with her [Energy Maniption], then she controlled them to cut another three powerful guards!
Even though Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Yaya had already done their best to kill as many guards as they could, but they still failed to kill all of them in a few breaths.
There were still a few dozen guards who remained alive in the end, and after the effect of Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] faded away, they hastily lined up in battle formation to face Tang Li Xue''s team!
Chapter 660 660: Decisive Clash!
Chapter 660 Chapter 660: Decisive sh!
"Damn it~!" Tang Li Xue, who had already transformed back into her fox form, gnashed her fangs in frustration.
There were several reasons why Tang Li Xue always wanted to finish as many guards and soldiers as she could with a sudden sneak attack.
But mostly, it was because these guards and soldiers would be extremely troublesome after they formed battle formations and used their treasures to fight.
Just like now...
When those few dozen guards and soldiers formed their battle formations, they began to emit a faint overbearing pressure. Even their strength seemed to ovep and stack with each other.
There was no doubt that they really suddenly got stronger several times in their current battle formation.
As they took their battle stance and brandished their treasured spears at Tang Li Xue and her group, Tang Li Xue faintly saw an image of Pixiu formed above those guards and soldiers.
The faint image of Pixiu angrily roared at Tang Li Xue and her group, and it was ready to pounce at them at any time.
Meanwhile, Little Loki had acted the fastest as it already used its [Phantom Splitters] to split itself into three!
Three Little Lokis used [Instant Teleportation] to appear right in the middle of their battle formation, and then three Little Lokis swiftlyunched an attack on several guards and soldiers to disrupt their battle formation!
[sh and sh]~!
Unfortunately, their Pixiu Battle Formation was not that easy to handle...
Those guards and soldiers had already be several times stronger in their Pixiu Battle Formation, and they easily blocked the sudden attack from three Little Lokis.
Yaya also did not remain idle at all. She danced agilely in mid-air and summoned out more than twenty [Compressed Wind Swords].
Those more than twenty [Compressed Wind Swords] assaulted the guards and soldiers swiftly from all directions!
However, the Pixiu image suddenly roared out loud, and all of Yaya''s [Compressed Wind Swords] bounced off before they could touch those guards and soldiers.
Tang Li Xue quickly controlled her [Sun Dragon ws], and the [Sun Dragon ws] shed down the huge broadsword to cut the Pixiu image!
Tang Li Xue even added [Sharp Edge Power] buff onto the huge broadsword to increase its sharpness and killing power many times!
The extremely sharp huge broadsword split the Pixiu image in two in one cleave, but it did not affect their battle at all since the Pixiu image was only the product of those guards'' and soldiers'' battle formation.
In a few breaths at most, the Pixiu image would be restored back to normal again.
But those few breaths of opening were very precious for Tang Li Xue and her group, since they could attack those guards and soldiers without worrying about the protection of that annoying Pixiu image!
.....
When Tang Li Xue and her group were fighting fiercely against those guards and soldiers, the two intruder foxes had already managed to sneak out from the Imperial Pce safely without facing any trouble at all.
Two intruder foxes tore their human skin disguise and threw it away onto the nearby bushes.
The petite fox girl with khaki-colored twin-tail hair halted her step and asked with a nervous tone: "We already sessfully went out of the Imperial Pce. Now you can tell me the secret rule that allows me to also win this treasure game, right?"
The tall fox girl smiled while replying in a yful tone: "Hehehe... Are you really so afraid that I will break my promise to you~?!"
The petite fox girl''s body became tense, and she suddenly jumped back to keep her distance from the tall fox girl vigntly.
Both she and the tall fox girl werepetitors in this treasure game, and the first one who sessfully got out of this Imperial City would be the final winner of this treasure game.
The only reason that kept the petite fox girl from backstabbing the tall fox girl until now was because she said that there was a hidden rule that could make both of them win this treasure game together.
The tall fox girl giggled at the petite fox girl''s cautious act and said: "All right, I will stop teasing you. We no longer have much time, so I will tell you only once about it so listen to me carefully."
The tall fox girl stopped teasing the petite fox girl, and her expression became solemn.
"I also got the information about this hidden rule from my Boss. I have not tried it yet by myself, but the information should be true." The tall fox girl muttered while showing a glowing green vassal mark hidden on her right shoulder to the petite fox girl.
It meant the tall fox girl got that information from her boss, the Apex Predator-level fox, so there was no need to doubt that it should be 100% true.
"My boss told me that there are two types of treasure games,petitive type and story type."
"Competitive-type treasure games do not have any hidden rules, but the story-type treasure games like the one we are in should have it."
"The condition to fulfill it is to obtain the treasure hidden inside the story-type treasure games... In our current treasure game, it should be the Imperial Treasures!"
The tall fox girl ended her exnation and patiently waited for the petite fox girl to think.
The petite fox girl digested the information for a few moments and asked with a doubtful tone: "So, I must steal all the Imperial Treasures or what? Then what should I do next after I managed to do it?"
The tall fox girl replied again with a solemn expression: "Yes, you must steal or rob everything! Don''t ask me how! I also do not know the exact way to do it! Maybe you can just gather all of them in one ce".
"After that, all you have to do is guard that ce and wait until I win this treasure game. At that time, both of us will be counted as the winner in this treasure game, and both of us will get the reward." The tall fox girl patted the petite fox girl''s head to reassure her.
"My boss told me if I managed to get the hidden treasures and also win the treasure game, then I would obtain two treasures at once." The tall fox girl added a few more sentences to make it as if she was the one who was at a disadvantage in their cooperation.
The petite fox girl stared gratefully at the tall fox girl and uttered: "Thank you, you are a nice fox~!"
The tall fox girl patted the petite fox girl''s head a few more times before she turned around while waving her hand and saying: "There should be quite many guards guarding the Imperial Treasury Warehouse, so you should be careful~!"
The petite fox girl took out another human skin and began to disguise herself as a maid.
Then she easily sneaked into the Imperial Pce again and began to search the location of the Imperial Treasury Warehouse.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue and her group had reached the critical point of their battle against several dozens of guards and soldiers!
Before the annoying Pixiu image could recover, Tang Li Xue hastily unleashed [Spirit Shock] to stun those several dozen guards and soldiers for a few seconds!
Three Little Lokis and Yaya took this chance tounch fatal attacks on those stunned guards and soldiers!
[sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi] x3~!
[Whirlwind Vacuum Wave]~!
Tang Li Xue also controlled the [Sun Dragon ws] that held the huge broadsword to attack the stunned guards and soldiers!
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Rapid Quick shes!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and three Little Lokis managed to instantly y more than half of them in those few seconds before they recovered from the [Spirit Shock]''s stun effect.
Unfortunately, the overbearing image of Pixiu had already recovered, and it quickly helped those guards and soldiers to repel the attack from Tang Li Xue and her group.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Mystic Whisper] without any hesitation and shouted: "Kill yourself with your weapon~!"
Tang Li Xue''s words seemed to prate directly into the consciousness of those guards and soldiers.
But before those guards and soldiers could do anything, the Pixiu image roared out loud to the sky.
Its roar managed to counter the effect of Tang Li Xue''s [Mystic Whisper] and made those guards and soldiers instantly be sober.
''Tsk~! What an annoying battle formation~!'' Tang Li Xueined in annoyance.
But Tang Li Xue could sense with her [Extrasensory Perception] that the power of Pixiu had decreased quite a lot after she, Little Loki, and Yaya ughtered more than half of those guards and soldiers.
Tang Li Xue was quite sure that she and her group could defeat all of the Pixiu, guards, and soldiers in one or two more minutes, but she still felt that it was too long.
One or two minutes was more than enough for the other guards and soldiers to notice their fierce battle here, so she needed to finish these people faster before anyone noticed it!
Little Loki and Yaya already knew Tang Li Xue''s intention from their mental connection, so they also became more serious about dealing with these people!
Yaya immediately used [Wind Guardian Blessing] on herself, Tang Li Xue, and Little Loki to increase their overall speed by 50%.
Tang Li Xue also used [Sharp Edge Power] on Little Loki''s tiny ws to increase their sharpness by several times!
Chapter 661 661: Intertwined Double Formations!
Chapter 661 Chapter 661: Intertwined Double Formations!
Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones activated [Instant Teleportation]!
Then they swiftly assaulted the guards and soldiers from three different directions!
[sh and sh] x3~!
The guards and soldiers raised their treasured weapons and blocked the swift attack from Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones on time.
When those guards and soldiers prepared to counterattack, the treasured weapons suddenly crumbled apart!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Those several guards and soldiers along with the treasured weapons in their grasp had already been cut by Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones a few moments ago, but they did not even realize it!
Pixiu actually nned to help those guards and soldiers facing Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones, but unfortunately, Tang Li Xue and Yaya blocked its way and made it busy against them.
The total number of guards and soldiers had decreased to less than ten, and they no longer possessed enough strength to contain Tang Li Xue and her group.
However, Tang Li Xue still remained cautious of them since she was afraid that these guards and soldiers would do something suicidal out of desperation.
When Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] caught that those guards and soldiers took out something like a signal re from their spatial treasures, she instantly decided to go all out to kill all of them!
Tang Li Xue''s right eye was suddenly glowing a bright majestic golden light!
[Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes]~!
Those guards and soldiers were ignited by majestic golden sun mes all of a sudden!
Despite the Pixiu image from their battle formation still desperately trying to protect all of them, but the majestic golden sun mes still managed to burn all of them into nothingness in only a few breaths!
After no one of those guards and soldiers remained alive, Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Yaya finally could sigh in relief.
Even though the battle did not look dangerous for them, and it onlysted less than one minute, but they were still extremely tense and careful in that fight.
After all, they were fighting inside the Imperial Pce, the home ground of those guards and soldiers.
Those guards and soldiers might have many other hidden trump cards such as some way to call for a lot of backup in this Imperial Pce.
Thankfully, those guards and soldiers did not have enough time to think clearly under their sudden sneak attack.
They surely never thought that a beautiful-looking silver fox, a tiny ck kitten, and a cute palm-sized fairy could ughter more than fifty trained elite guards and soldiers like them in less than a minute at first.
When they realized the true power of Tang Li Xue''s group and decided to call for help with signal re-like treasure, Tang Li Xue quickly finished all of them off before they could even use it.
Actually, if all of them immediately tried to use the signal re-like treasure to call for help right after they set up their battle formation, Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki might not have been able to stop all of them from doing it.
Fortunately, there was no ''if'' in the life-or-death battle. Just a few seconds dyed decision could decide the final oue of the life-or-death battle!
Little Loki canceled its [Phantom Splitters] and sat on the ground while meowing at Tang Li Xue: "Nyaaaa~! (I am very hungry~!)"
Yaya also felt a bit tired, so she flew toward Tang Li Xue and sat on the top of her furry head to rest.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied to Little Loki: "Be more patient~! We will enter the imperial treasury warehouse right now. There should be plenty of spirit stones for you to eat inside there."
Afterforting Little Loki, Tang Li Xue slowly walked to approach the Imperial Treasury Warehouse.
''By the way, my [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] surprisingly became a lot more powerful after my overall stats increased~! Well, but the energy consumption also increased by several times.'' Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise inside her mind.
For this [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes], Tang Li Xue both loved and hated it as one of her most powerful offensive-type trump cards.
There were many advantages of this [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] such as it could ignore any defense and burn her opponent directly as long as it was in her sight, the devastating damage caused by it was also continuous and fatal, it was 100% guaranteed to hit her enemy as long as it was in her sight, and many other more.
Unfortunately, the disadvantage of this [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] was too fatal for her which was once it hit her enemy, it would either burn her enemy to nothingness orpletely exhaust her energy until she passed out of exhaustion.
A fatal double-edged effect like that waspletely uneptable for Tang Li Xue, so she rarely used this [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes].
When Tang Li Xue''s mind was thinking about the way to use her [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] more efficiently, she subconsciously stretched out her paw to touch the tightly locked double gates of the Imperial Treasury Warehouse.
BZZZZZZZZT~!
Unbearable pain stung her paw all of a sudden!
Tang Li Xue hastily pulled her paw while gritting her fangs to not howl in pain.
When Tang Li Xue examined her right paw, it actually had been scorched a bit.
"Damn it~! I know it would not be that easy~!" Tang Li Xueined in annoyance and anger.
The entire wall of this Imperial Treasury Warehouse had actually engraved with a protective formation.
Not only that, it was also covered with the me elemental offensive formation on the outside.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki did not hastily go all out to attack the tightly locked double gates, or they might have already suffered from the violent counterattack from the me elemental offensive formation.
With the protection of intertwined defensive and offensive formations, this Imperial Treasury Warehouse was clearly like an untouchable fortress!
After observing the intertwined defensive and offensive formations in the Imperial Treasury Warehouse, Tang Li Xue immediately gave up on trying to solve it.
She was only a low-grade Inscriptionist currently while these intertwined defensive and offensive formations were clearly intermediate-grade or even high-grade formations.
Trying to break it with her current meager knowledge about runes and formations was like a primary school child trying to solve a high school mathematics problem.
But it did not mean that Tang Li Xue did not have any other way to break into the Imperial Treasury Warehouse!
Tang Li Xue did not bother to waste any of her brain cells, and she immediately activated her transfiguration to transform back into her human form.
She used her [Energy Maniption] to create a set of white clothes and a cloak to cover her naked smooth jade-like wless body.
Then she took out her golden inscription pen from her System''s item storage without any hesitation.
No matter how imprable the walls and gates of this Imperial Treasury Warehouse or how strong the intertwined defensive and offensive formations protecting it, Tang Li Xue did not believe that it could withstand her mighty undefeated divine golden inscription pen!

------------------------------------------------
The sixth effect of the golden inscription pen, [Pration], clearly stated that it could prate any kind of surface!
The golden inscription pen might even be able to prate true dragon scale and carve any inscription on it, so how could this Imperial Treasury Warehouse block it?!
Tang Li Xue instructed Yaya and Little Loki with a solemn expression: "Little Loki, Yaya, watch our surroundings carefully and remind me if someonees here, okay? I will start to work on breaking through this Imperial Treasury Warehouse. I may be too busy to be on guardter, so I can only count on you two."
Yaya and Little Loki nodded at Tang Li Xue with a serious expression, and they began to look around carefully behind Tang Li Xue.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue began to use the golden inscription pen to scrape the tightly locked double gates little by little.
"Damn it~! Unfortunately, this golden inscription pen is too small~! If its size is as big as a spear or halberd, it can cut these double gates in a few shes~!" Tang Li Xueined as she kept impatiently scraping the double gates.
Tang Li Xue could not find the keyhole at the locked double gates, and she also did not know how to open them, so she could only try to create a hole in the double gates.
Chapter 662 662: Being Noticed!
Chapter 662 Chapter 662: Being Noticed!
After scraping the double gates little by little for more than five minutes with her golden inscription pen, Tang Li Xue still failed to make a hole to enter the Imperial Treasury Warehouse.
It seemed she still far underestimated the thickness of the tightly locked double gates of this Imperial Treasury Warehouse.
.....
While Tang Li Xue was still focusing on her task of breaking into the Imperial Treasury Warehouse, she did not know that her suspicious action had already attracted some unwanted attention.
Inside a huge white room, there were at least hundreds of foxes in their human form, and each of them carefully supervised every move of the Foxes Hunting Festival''s participants through the hologram screen.
A charming fox girl in a formal uniform dress with tied long ck hair frowned deeply as she stared suspiciously at what Tang Li Xue was currently doing from the screen.
One of her female fox colleagues chuckled and asked curiously: "What is she doing?"
"I don''t know... These intertwined double formations are pretty advanced and hard to crack. Higher-ups actually made this to test the formation knowledge of the participants. They hoped to find a rare genius in formation who could break this formation." The charming fox girl with tied long ck hair replied.
"Oh, is she that rare genius in formation? Then why don''t you look happy at all after finding such a rare genius?" Her female fox colleague asked again.
The fox girl with tied long ck hair shook her head and exined: "She did not break the formation as it should be, but she used something to forcefully break the formation and dig a hole in the gate."
Her female fox colleague instantly became dumbfounded, then eximed: "Isn''t that cheating? Should we report it to the head supervisor?"
The fox girl with tied long ck hair nodded with a solemn look as she hastily took amunication device in the form of a jade amulet and contacted the head supervisor.
After she reported Tang Li Xue''s strangeness, the head supervisor instantly appeared right behind her as if the head supervisor teleported directly to her.
The head supervisor was also a beautiful young girl with long ck hair, but her messy looks and chicken coop hairpletely ruined her beauty.
Even her expression was bad, and she always looked unhappy.
The messy-haired head supervisor immediately checked Tang Li Xue''s movement from the very beginning when she entered Treasure Ind until now in only a few seconds.
The recording in the hologram screen was running at hundreds of times speed, but the messy-haired head supervisor could see and analyze Tang Li Xue''s every movement very clearly.
The messy-haired head supervisor smiled after she carefully inspected Tang Li Xue. She tapped her chin with her slender finger while muttering: "Interesting~! What an intriguing subject~!"
But suddenly, another head supervisor instantly appeared with a stern expression.
This time, the head supervisor was an extremely handsome male fox, but his prating cold re and stern expression made everyone not dare to look at him.
He asked with his usual cold and indifferent tone: "I heard there is someone cheating. Is that true?"
The curious smile on the messy-haired head supervisor''s face vanished as her expression returned to her usual unhappy look and she retorted: "No, it is a false report. That fox cub is not cheating. She used her own divine ability to make a hole in the formation."
Then the messy-haired head supervisor acted as if she did not care and walked away from there.
The male head supervisor red suspiciously at the messy head supervisor, but he shook his head and stopped caring about it.
Even though the handsome male fox and the messy-haired fox girl were both head supervisors, but they were actually wearing different color armbands.
The handsome male fox was wearing a blue armband with Tu Shan Faction written on it, while the messy-haired fox girl was wearing a red armband with Qing Qiu Faction written on it.
After the messy-haired fox girl passed the handsome male fox, she smiled full of curiosity again.
When the messy-haired head supervisor sat back in her seat on the back side of the huge white room, she handed over a jade slip to her assistant and whispered: "Add this one into our key of observation."
The assistant nodded obediently as she hastily ran out of the huge white room, and submitted the jade slip to Qing Qiu''s investigation department.
It did not take long for the jade slip to reach the hands of the investigation department''s head.
A mesmerizing smile bloomed on the voluptuous foxdy with long wavy purple hair after she read the information in the jade slip.
"A fox cub with the power of Spirit me from 7 Earthly Desire Spirits, and she even has more than one Dragon-type me elemental divine abilities."
"She also has a creation-type divine ability, a copy-type divine ability, three summoning-type divine abilities, and a perfect clone-type divine ability."
(Three summons here are Yaya, Little Loki, and Golden Winged Serpent. Yes, they counted Golden Winged Serpent as a summon-type divine ability.)
"Moreover, she can use spiritual energy to perform some martial arts or spells like Human Race¡ Hmm, it may be rted to her copy-type divine ability, and her battle style covers two types, Battle-type and Illusion-type."
"Not to mention, she has a perfect defensive-type divine ability which can help her withstand many lethal attacks, another divine ability to enhance her spirit perception which can detect any iing threat and danger, and powerful self-healing divine ability."
"Tsk, Tsk, tsk... To think there is another perfect all-rounder just like Meng Yue~!"
The investigation department''s head clicked her tongue in amazement.
Of course, the information given by the messy-haired head supervisor was much more detailed than just that.
Despite her messy appearance, the messy-haired fox girl was actually a true genius in terms of analyzing and information gathering in the Qing Qiu Faction.
With her sharp vision and analytical ability, she also added many important details such as the subject''s three summons were far from simple, but their true potential might need to be investigated even further. Oh... and the subject also has the ability to merge with her summons.
She even added another note at the end of her report saying that the subject might still have some hidden abilities.
After reading the information from the jade slip, the head of the Investigation Department sent it to her subordinates for further inspection.
.....
Tang Li Xue still did not know that her suspicious action had already been noticed by the Fox n''s higher-ups, and she almost got eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival for cheating.
Moreover, she was currently being investigated by Qing Qiu Faction''s Investigation Department in secret.
After spending a lot of effort, Tang Li Xue finally managed to create a hole to enter the Imperial Treasury Warehouse.
The hole was a bit too small, but she did not n to waste any more of her precious time to make the hole bigger.
After all, she was using a small pen to make this hole, not a shovel or pickaxe!
Tang Li Xue could only crawl slowly to enter the small hole in the gate.
But because her buttock was quite plumppared to her extremely slender waist and humble breast, her bottom actually stuck in the hole, and she could no longer crawl further into the Imperial Treasury Warehouse.
"This damn hole is too small~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth andined in anger.
After thinking for a while, Tang Li Xue canceled her human transfiguration and transformed back into her fox form.
Finally, she could enter the small hole easily without any hurdle.
Little Loki and Yaya followed her and entered the hole too, but they easily passed through the hole and entered the Imperial Treasury Warehouse with their small size.
Despite that, Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Yaya did not lower their guard at all.
But contrary to their expectation, there were no longer traps, obstacles, or enemies after they entered the Imperial Treasury Warehouse.
There were several small hills of spirit stones!
A few mountains of silver and gold bars!
Thousands of jade boxes containing precious cultivation resources were stacked neatly!
All kinds of literature treasures such as calligraphies, paintings, and books!
Tens of thousands of jade slips containing rare secret techniques, battle formations, martial arts, and spells!
Tens of thousands of treasure armors, treasure weapons, and all kinds of treasure gadgets!
Compared to the previous City Lord''s hidden treasures, this Imperial Treasury was clearly many times richer!
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki were instantly dazzled and dumbfounded by so many precious treasures in front of them!
"Woahh~! So, all of these would be ours from now on~?! Muahahaha~! I am so rich right now~!" Tang Li Xueughed delightfully.
Yaya flew around excitedly and examined the treasures one by one with a pair of eyes glittering with excitement and curiosity.
Little Loki ran excitedly into one of the small hills of spirit stones and began to hungrily eat them!
That small hill of spirit stones was decreasing with the speed visible to the naked eye!
It could not be helped since Little Loki was really too hungry right now.
Chapter 663 663: Double Trouble at Once!
Chapter 663 Chapter 663: Double Trouble at Once!
After calming down her excitement a bit, Tang Li Xue immediately felt worried as she took out the spatial ring she ''borrowed'' from Wang Shan.
"There are too many treasures stored in this Imperial Treasury Warehouse... I hope this spatial ring can hold them all~!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a tone filled with worry while grasping the spatial ring tighter with her paws.
"Unfortunately, the spatial treasures of those guards and soldiers also disappeared after they died... If we can take and use their spatial treasures, we would no longer need to worry about insufficient space to store all of these treasures~!" Tang Li Xue added as she sighed in disappointment.
Tang Li Xue did not bother Yaya who was still busily ying around or Little Loki who was still desperately eating the spirit stones to relieve its hunger.
She hurriedly used Wang Shan''s spatial ring which has a quite vast space to store the Imperial Treasures.
Thousands of jade boxes containing precious cultivation resources... All taken~!
All kinds of literature treasures such as calligraphies, paintings, and books... Who needs these things except schrs?! It would only be wasting their limited space! Not taken~!
Tens of thousands of jade slips containing rare secret techniques, battle formations, martial arts, and spells... Of course, all taken~! Different from those useless literature treasures that could only be admired, these things not only could enhance the dynasty''s military power but also increase the individual strength of all immortal cultivators!
Tens of thousands of treasure armors, treasure weapons, and all kinds of treasure gadgets... There was no need to ask, all of these definitely must be taken away~! Even fools and blind men would know how precious these things were!
More than a dozen mountains of silver and gold bars... Well, they were surely quite precious but only for mortals. For cultivators, these things were not valuable at all. Moreover, it would take too much of her space to store them, so... not taken~!
Several hills of spirit stones... These were the hard currency for all immortal cultivators, and their importance did not need to be doubted anymore, but before Tang Li Xue could take them away... Her [Extrasensory Perception] suddenly sensed that someone actually entered the Imperial Treasury Warehouse through the hole she made from outside!
"Damn it~! Have our actions been found out already?" Tang Li Xue eximed unwillingly as she had not even taken a tenth of all spirit stones yet.
But it was actually not that strange since Tang Li Xue had also realized that she had already spent too much time fighting the guards, digging the hole, and packing away the most treasures in this Imperial Treasury Warehouse.
When Tang Li Xue stared vigntly at the hole in the tightly locked double gates of Imperial Treasury Warehouse, but she, Yaya, and Little Loki had already prepared tounch a sudden fatal attack on the person who entered through that hole!
But out of their expectation, the one who came was not the guards or any people from the Imperial side!
"I know it must be you..." The khaki-colored fox who just went out from the hole muttered as she red unfriendly at Tang Li Xue.
Yes, she was no longer in the form of a small loli with a twin-tailed hairstyle. She clearly had been prepared to fight against Tang Li Xue before entering here since she already entered her fox form earlier.
Tang Li Xue secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart...
It did not mean that Tang Li Xue was looking down on this colored fox, but in her opinion, the situation would be much worse if the guards or any people from the imperial side found out about this.
Once they reported it to their higher-ups and the minister or general at Nascent Soul Stage stage came here, it would be a checkmate for her at that time!
Well, just kidding¡ Her perfect copy had already waiting for her to swap out there, so she could actually retreat away from this ce any time she wanted.
But despite that, she still wanted more time to take away all the spirit stones since she was afraid that the final reward would be discounted if she did not take all of them, so of course, she did not want any Nascent Soul Stage experts toe here yet.
Tang Li Xue wiped her spiritual mark on the spatial ring and threw the spatial ring to Little Loki and said: "Little Loki, store all of those spirit stones into this spatial ring as fast as you can. You should be able to do it, right?"
Almost all beasts under Spirit Beast could not use spiritual energy, so they could only use space pouches instead of spatial rings.
However, Tang Li Xue believed Little Loki as the leader of the mythical Four Evil Fiend Beasts should be able to do it! Well... although, it was still a newborn cub...
Little Loki rolled its eyes unwillingly at Tang Li Xue, but it still caught the spatial ring and began to hastily collect the spirit stones into the spatial ring.
As for Yaya... Of course, she also has her own important thing to do right now~!
"Let''s go, Yaya~!" Tang Li Xue urged Yaya as she charged swiftly toward the khaki-colored fox.
Yaya nodded at Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression as she turned into a sh of green light and merged into Tang Li Xue''s body.
*Ding!
[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]
Tang Li Xue used Yaya''s buff on herself to increase her speed even further without any hesitation.
*Ding!
[Wind Guardian Blessing] activated! (Increase overall speed by 50% and add auto-dodge effect. Duration: 10 seconds.)
There was no need for Tang Li Xue and the khaki-colored fox to talk too much to each other since both of them had already understood each other intentions.
Since both of their primary objectives were these imperial treasures, then all they needed to do right now was to fight to the end, and the final winner would take everything!
.....
While Tang Li Xue and the khaki-colored fox started to fight fiercely against each other in the Imperial Treasury Warehouse, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was not idle either.
Currently, she was sitting in the Wang Family''s luxurious carriage with Wang Shan.
The luxurious carriage looked like it was aimlessly wandering around the Imperial City, but actually, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was secretly looking for a chance to get out of this city.
Unfortunately, it would not be that easy since so many royal guards and imperial soldiers were patrolling around to look for any trace or clue about the intruder.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shook her head in disappointment, but when she wanted to talk to Wang Shan to let out herint...
"Wake up and grow wildly my babies~!" The tall fox girl wearing a green dress muttered softly as she still hid in the dark alley near the south gate of the Imperial City.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
A great earthquake suddenly shook the entire Imperial City!
Under the night sky, countless green vines grew wildly and covered all the buildings in the entire Imperial City!
"GYAAAAAA~!"
"What the hell is this~?! HEEEEEELLPP~!"
"Mommy, it hurts~! These green vines tie me too tightly~!"
The countless green vines even began to bind all the people near them!
Those green vines did not care if they were old people, children, or women, everyone near them would be tied!
At first, they were not fatal, but who knew that poisonous thorns would actually grow on those countless green vines only in a few minutes after they grew?!
Those green vines and their poisonous thorns were not fatal for anyone with slightly higher cultivation such as those royal guards and imperial soldiers, but they were quite fatal for those civilians who did not have any cultivation!
All of the royal guards and imperial soldiers already moved quickly to save the civilians near them, but they clearly could not save all of them at once since the number of civilians bound by those green vines with poisonous thorns was too many.
Moreover, the civilians who were pricked by the poisonous thorns would fall into aa and have high fever!
If they were not detoxified quickly enough, the civilians with weaker physiques like old people, children, and women would certainly die first.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy almost jumped down from Wang Family''s luxurious carriage in reflex since she urgently wanted to help out those civilians, but she quickly realized that this might be her only chance to get away from this Imperial City.
"Mi... Miss Tang... What we should do? Should we also help those people? But... those vines are so terrifying... It would be bad if we also get poisoned like those people..." Wang Shan asked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a trembling voice filled with hesitation and fear.
Tang Li Xue actually admired Wang Shan quite a bit at this moment since he still had thought to help those civilians despite his fear of those poisonous vines.
On the contrary, she started to feel that she was really too narrow-minded and viinouspared to this cowardly Wang Shan...
Normally, she would definitely help out those people without any hesitation, but this was clearly inside the treasure game space!
All of those people should be fake, and they were only the NPCs created by the treasure game space!
Her true objective should be to win this treasure game and obtain the reward! After shepleted them these people would disappear too, so there should be no need for her to save these people, right?!
Chapter 664 664: Copy VS Copy!
Chapter 664 Chapter 664: Copy VS Copy!
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was in dilemma, she decided to just ask her real self''s opinion instead.
"Uhhh, well... What do you think I should do right now?" The perfect copy asked the real Tang Li Xue through their mental connection.
.....
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue was actually extremely busy right now!
She admitted that she was really looking down too much on the khaki-colored fox before.
She thought this khaki-colored fox was only the henchman of the wood-controlling green fox, but who knew that this khaki-colored fox could actually fight back and forth so fiercely against her even after she entered [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya!
[Compressed Wind des]~!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Tang Li Xue showered the khaki-colored fox with tens of [Compressed Wind des], but she could actually reflect them back toward Tang Li Xue!
But Tang Li Xue in [Divine Possession] mode had extremely high speed, so she easily avoided all of the bounced [Compressed Wind des].
"Sigh, sure enough... None of the foxes who have survived this far is weak." Tang Li Xue grumbled in annoyance.
Just when Tang Li Xue prepared to approach the khaki-colored fox and attack her from up close, Tang Li Xue suddenly saw a faint cold sneer on her face!
"Damn it~!" Tang Li Xue cursed, but it was a bit toote for her to avoid since she had already been so close to the khaki-colored fox.
[Compressed Wind des]~!
Tang Li Xue: "?!"
Yes, the khaki-colored fox could actually unleash dozens of [Compressed Wind des], just like what Tang Li Xue had done just now!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue was extremely shocked until she did not have enough time to react.
Fortunately, the auto-dodge effect from her [Wind Guardian Blessing] buff worked well, and her small furry body swiftly swayed to the right and left at rapid speed to dodge the iing [Compressed Wind des].
Despite that, some [Compressed Wind des] still managed to hit her furry body several times, but it was not a big problem.
Her [Sun And Moon Aegis] nullified the most of weaker attacks while the stronger attacks could only leave light wounds on her. Moreover, Her [High-Speed Regeneration] could cure all of those insignificant wounds in only a few breaths.
Tang Li Xue immediately recovered from her shock, and from the previous attack, she realized that the khaki-colored fox''s [Compressed Wind des] were actually weaker than her own version!
''This loli fox is surely a lot more troublesome than I had expected~! So far she has already shown two of her divine abilities, reflecting back my own attack and copying my attacking skill...'' Tang Li Xue hastily analyzed in her mind.
Just when Tang Li Xue''s mind was thinking about some way to quickly defeat the khaki-colored fox in front of her, her perfect copy suddenly sent her a pretty stupid question.
Tang Li Xue almost fainted on the spot in anger when she received the question from her perfect copy.
She scolded her perfect copy mercilessly: "You damn fool~! I am fighting with my life on the line here, and you ask such an insignificant question to me at this time?! Who cares about that?!"
Without waiting for Tang Li Xue to get over her business with her perfect copy, the khaki-colored fox unleashed another attack on her!
After using [Compressed Wind des] once, the khaki-colored fox seemed to be much more skilled in using it right now!
She merged tens of [Compressed Wind des] into three and shot them toward Tang Li Xue!
These three [Compressed Wind des] were many times more powerful than before! Even Tang Li Xue was forced to face them more seriously this time, otherwise, she might really be cut into several pieces by them!
Or not... since she still has three chances to resist deadly blows by her [Sun And Moon Aegis], but it would not be funny if she wasted all of these three chances to block her own skill that got copied by the khaki-colored fox!
Tang Li Xue used [Breezing Step] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] without any hesitation to avoid the three powerful [Compressed Wind des].
Her movement was extremely fast until she left behind several afterimages, but surprisingly, the khaki-colored fox could control her three powerful [Compressed Wind des] to change direction at thest moment and chase after Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice than to try to block those three powerful [Compressed Wind des] that chasing after her since she surely could not move faster than them.
Tang Li Xue hastily created a transparent defense wall using her [Energy Maniption]!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
It only managed to block one of the three powerful [Compressed Wind des]!
But Tang Li Xue had already prepared for that, she condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and used them to block the other two powerful [Compressed Wind des].
Tang Li Xue knew very clearly that she definitely could not win by defending, so she swiftly unleashed a dozen [Compressed Wind des] toward the khaki-colored fox as her counterattack!
Unfortunately, the khaki-colored fox once again activated her defensive divine ability, and tang Li Xue''s [Compressed Wind des] bounced back onto herself!
Right at that time, Tang Li Xue quickly activated her [Mirror of the Moon] to copy the khaki-colored fox''s defensive divine ability while dodging her own [Compressed Wind des] that bounced back at her!
*Ding!
[Mirror of the Moon] activated!
[Copy Start]!
Name: [Reflective Barrier]!
Type: Divine Ability
[Copy Completed]!
The khaki-colored fox sneered mockingly at Tang Li Xue as she condensed tens of [Compressed Wind des] again.
But this time, she merged all of them into one!
There was no need to doubt the power of this single [Compressed Wind de] would be more than enough to cleave through all of Tang Li Xue''s defense!
When the khaki-colored fox shot it at Tang Li Xue, the extremely powerful [Compressed Wind de] reached Tang Li Xue in a blink of an eye!
Tang Li Xue had already been prepared as she condensed a transparent defensive wall with her [Energy Maniption] and a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] to defend against it!
Just like the khaki-colored fox had predicted, her single [Compressed Wind de] sliced through the transparent defensive wall and [Sun Dragon ws] easily this time!
However, Tang Li Xue did not panic...
She activated her newly copied skill from the khaki-colored fox at thest moment!
[Reflective Barrier]~!
BAAAAAAANNGG~!
After crashing onto the transparent [Reflective Barrier], the extremely powerful [Compressed Wind de] actually bounced back toward the khaki-colored fox!
The khaki-colored fox did not even have a chance to react at all as the extremely powerful [Compressed Wind de] flew so swiftly toward her!
PPUUUFF~!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xuecked control over her newly copied [Reflective Barrier], so the bounced back [Compressed Wind de] only grazed at the khaki-colored fox''s left side.
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment since she had just missed a rare chance to defeat the khaki-colored fox.
But it really could not be helped since it was surprisingly quite difficult to control the trajectory of the attack bounced by the [Reflective Barrier].
Sure enough, the khaki-colored fox could control the [Compressed Wind des] much better than Tang Li Xue after she copied it, so it was not strange that she could only control the [Reflective Barrier] much better than Tang Li Xue too.
From this battle, Tang Li Xue also realized her other weakness...
She actually improved so fasttely that her control over her own skills and abilities was slipping so much.
But it was not something she could fix in a few seconds, she might even need a few months of persistent hard training to fix it, so she could only try to think of another n to defeat this khaki-colored fox.
''This damn copy fox is really annoying to deal with~!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in frustration.
She did not even realize that she might be talking about herself at this point.
While the khaki-colored fox also became more solemn as she was staring vigntly at Tang Li Xue.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue received a piece of good news from Little Loki that it had already collected all of the spirit stones in this Imperial Treasury Warehouse.
So right now, what she needed to do was to wait for the wood-controlling fox to sessfully get out of this Imperial City and win this treasure game.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had also already made her decision.
She gnashed her pearl-white teeth as she jumped down from the Wang Family''s luxurious carriage and started to help the civilians that got bound by the poisonous thorn vines.
Of course, it was not a rash decision that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was made on the whim.
Her true self was currently fighting fiercely against the khaki-colored fox in the Imperial Treasury Warehouse, and her situation could deteriorate at any time.
It would be unwise for her as the perfect copy to do something dangerous like breaking out from this Imperial City at this moment because if her true self activated [Swap] to switch location with her, her true self would only fall helplessly into another dangerous situation.
Anyway, they had already pocketed the Imperial Treasures, they could survive this treasure game, and obtain the bonus rewardter, so there was no need for them to be too greedy and take another risk to seize the winning reward of this treasure game.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Wang Shan were busily helping the bound civilians, the ground under their feet shook greatly once more as the poisonous thorn vines grew much more rapidly than before!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately realized that the poisonous thorn vines actually moved toward the south!
As the perfect copy stared at the south with a solemn expression...
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
A great explosion urred at the south gate of the Imperial City!
"So, that nasty wood-controlling vixen had also started her battle to break out of this Imperial City, huh..." The perfect copy murmured as she kept helping to free the civilians from the poisonous thorn vines.
Chapter 665 665: Unexpected Sudden Danger!
Chapter 665 Chapter 665: Unexpected Sudden Danger!
The perfect copy actually hesitated a bit, but she still decided to stay away from doing anything dangerous for now.
Even though it might be really tempting to take advantage of the distraction made by that nasty wood-controlling fox, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still did not want to join the fun yet.
At least until her true self managed to get out safely from the Imperial Pce, she as Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy must always stay at the safest ce and ready to be swapped at any time by her real self.
It would not be funny if she and her true self were facing a life-threatening danger at the same time because of her rash action!
.....
At this time, Tang Li Xue was still fighting fiercely against the khaki-colored fox.
As both of them kept trading one blow after another rapidly, Tang Li Xue quickly realized that she had overestimated the khaki-colored fox''s copy-type divine ability too much, maybe because she also had the same type of divine ability.
But different from her [Mirror of the Moon], the khaki-colored fox''s copy-type divine ability actually could not copy many of her divine abilities such as [Energy Maniption] and [Sun Dragon ws].
Tang Li Xue did not know the exact information about it yet, but the khaki-colored fox''s copy-type divine ability surely worked in a different waypared to her [Mirror of the Moon].
Of course, Tang Li Xue could just copy the khaki-colored fox''s copy-type divine ability to know about its true effect, but the problem was that she did not n to rece [Reflective Barrier] and [Mother Earth''s Gift] because both of them were extremely useful for her.
Despite that, it still did not mean that the khaki-colored fox was easy to deal with...
When Tang Li Xue unleashed [Sun Dragon Fangs] to bite the khaki-colored fox, that khaki-colored fox did not dodge or avoid it at all!
PPUUUUFFF~!
Tang Li Xue sensed that something was not right and eximed in surprise: "It is only a clone?! Damn it~!"
Tang Li Xue realized the khaki-colored fox''s true aim almost immediately and hastily shouted to Little Loki to warn it: "Watch out, Little Loki~! That vixen want to..."
Unfortunately, the khaki-colored fox was already one step faster!
Before Tang Li Xue could finish her words, the khaki-colored fox had already appeared right in front of Little Loki to snatch the spatial ring containing almost all of the imperial treasures inside it!
Little Loki quickly used [Instant Teleportation] to teleport away from the khaki-colored fox.
Little Loki managed to keep its distance from the khaki-colored fox, but who knew that the spatial ring had already fallen into the khaki-colored fox''s grasp before Little Loki even realized it?!
The khaki-colored fox proudly showed the spatial ring in the grasp of her paw while saying with a mocking tone: "Thank you for your hard work~! However, I would still be the one who survive in the end~!"
"Oh, really~! I do not think so~!" Tang Li Xue replied coldly as she activated [Shadow sh] to suddenly teleport to the khaki-colored fox''s shadow!
Tang Li Xue swiftly bit the khaki-colored fox''s paw that holding the spatial ring, but the khaki-colored fox still refused to let go of the spatial ring in her grasp!
Little Loki hastily took this chance to activate its [Phantom Splitters] and split itself into three identical figures, then the three of them used [Instant Teleportation] to appear around the khaki-colored fox!
[Scythe w Qi] x3~!
Little Loki chose to just attack and kill the khaki-colored fox in anger rather than trying to grab back the spatial ring!
Unfortunately, the khaki-colored fox had been prepared to defend herself at this time...
[Reflective Barrier]~!
Not only did the khaki-colored fox manage to block the three Little Lokis'' simultaneous [Scythe w Qi] with her [Reflective Barrier], but she also skillfully bounced them toward Tang Li Xue''s neck instead!
PUUFFF~!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (2/3)]
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue''s luck was quite good right now...
Since the three [Scythe w Qi] hit her at the same time, they only consumed one of the three [Sun And Moon Aegis] deadly blow protection chances.
If those three [Scythe w Qi] hit her with a difference of a few milliseconds, they would consume all of the three [Sun And Moon Aegis] deadly blow protection chances at once!
Despite that, Tang Li Xue''s furry body still got blown off dozens of meters because of it until she crashed onto the mountain of silver and gold!
Tang Li Xue got buried in the mountain of silver and gold for a few seconds, but she could still easily jump out of it after that.
Little Loki sighed in relief after it saw Tang Li Xue was all right.
It would be extremely guilty if its own attack were the one who killed Tang Li Xue instead!
Meanwhile, the khaki-colored fox immediately realized that the spatial ring was no longer in her grasp.
She red coldly at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with killing intent.
"Cough, cough, cough... The ring... Cough, cough..." Tang Li Xue coughed violently for a while.
Then Tang Li Xue became panicked as she muttered confusedly in her mind: ''Err... Did I just identally swallow the spatial ring?!''
Before Tang Li Xue had time to calm down and think about what she had to do, the khaki-colored fox already charged angrily toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue hastily condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] in reflex to block the khaki-colored fox!
Just as the [Sun Dragon ws] attacked the khaki-colored fox, the khaki-colored fox''s figure crumbled apart once again!
"Another clone?! What an annoying skill is this?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in annoyance.
Even Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones had trouble finding the real khaki-colored fox at this time.
When Tang Li Xue and Little Loki thought they would fight more fiercely against the vanishing khaki-colored fox, another unexpected situation suddenly came!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and the khaki-colored fox were pressed onto the ground by unimaginable pressure all of a sudden!
"Damn it... What the hell is this?!" Tang Li Xue thought in fear and shock since she could not even move any of her limbs right now.
When Tang Li Xue''s mind was thinking fast about how to get out of this dire situation, the tightly locked double gates of Imperial Treasury Warehouse slowly opened!
More than a hundred royal guards and imperial soldiers suddenly poured into the Imperial Treasury Warehouse!
They quickly surrounded Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and the khaki-colored fox who still could not move because the sealing formation under this Imperial Treasury Warehouse had been activated to seal the three of them!
"Well, well, well... Look here~! A few lowly beasts actually dare to touch Your Majesty''s treasures~!" A masculine voice talked with a cold mocking tone.
This masculine voice was actually very familiar to Tang Li Xue!
Who else if it was not Wang Shan''s father, the minister of Justice, Wang Tian!
"Cut all of their limbs and torture them well before using the Soul Searching Technique on them to find where they put the treasures!" Wang Tian gave a cruel order to the royal guards and imperial soldiers.
Tang Li Xue''s body shuddered in fright when she heard Wang Tian''s order.
It would be all right if Wang Tian gave the order to kill them, but torturing them to half-death and using Soul Searching Technique on them was definitely bad news for them!
"Little Loki~! Come here quick~!" Tang Li Xue instructed Little Loki through their mental connection.
Little Loki instantly understood what Tang Li Xue nned to do, and it used [Instant Teleportation] without any hesitation to appear right beside Tang Li Xue in the blink of an eye!
Tang Li Xue hastily put Little Loki into her System''s pet space!
But at that moment, Wang Tian realized Little Loki and Tang Li Xue''s suspicious movement!
Wang Tian was an extremely powerful Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, so his reaction time was also extremely fast beyond what Tang Li Xue could imagine!
Wang Tian waved his palm without holding back any of his strength!
His attack was so fast that no one could see Wang Tian''s movement at all!
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
A huge palm printed deep on the almost imprable hard floor of the Imperial Treasury Warehouse!
But there was no longer any trace of Tang Li Xue there!
Wang Tian frowned deeply as he muttered in disbelief: "It actually still managed to escape?!"
Wang Tian red vigntly at the khaki-colored fox, but the khaki-colored fox clearly still could not move at all, and she also could escape like Tang Li Xue.
"Carry out my previous order and bring it away from here~!" Wang Tian ordered again.
.....
After using the [Swap] skill to instantly exchange location with her perfect copy, Tang Li Xue appeared beside Wang Shan all of a sudden!
The problem was that she suddenly appeared in her fox form!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (2/3)]
Tang Li Xue hastily un-summoned her perfect copy before Wang Tian could really kill her perfect copy a few more times until the [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection ran out!
"WAAAAHHH~! What... Are you... Where is Miss Tang?! You... You beast... Did you abduct Miss Tang?!" Wang Shan fell and sat on the ground in fright while shouting with a stuttered voice.
Tang Li Xue did not n to exin anything to Wang Shan as she rushed away swiftly from there before the royal guards and imperial soldiers nearby realized it and chase after her!
She used [Breezing Step] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], and she was also still in [Divine Possession] with Yaya, so her speed was extremely fast,pletely unmatched by those royal guards and imperial soldiers.
Chapter 666 666: Anti-Climatic Conclusion!
Chapter 666 Chapter 666: Anti-Climatic Conclusion!
Before those royal guards and imperial soldiers could react, Tang Li Xue had already disappeared from their sight like a passing wind.
Tang Li Xue also activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn herself invisible and undetectable, so those royal guards and imperial soldiers would not be able to track her at least for now.
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, the people from the imperial side were clearly well-prepared this time.
One of those royal guards and imperial soldiers immediately took out amunication talisman from their spatial treasure, and they contacted their higher-ups with it to report Tang Li Xue''s appearance.
It did not take long for one of the royal guard''s captains toe to their location, and then he took out apass-like treasure from his spatial ring.
One of the imperial soldiers dragged the arrested Wang Shan to face the royal guard''s captain, and the royal guard''s captain used thepass-like treasure in his grasp to extract the trace of Tang Li Xue''s aura and energy from Wang Shan''s body.
Since Wang Shan had apanied Tang Li Xue for quite some time, and Tang Li Xue also used [Mystic Whisper] on him several times already, it was inevitable that she would leave a trace of her aura and energy on Wang Shan.
With the guidance of apass-like spirit treasure, the royal guard''s captain began to lead more than a hundred royal guards and imperial soldiers to chase after Tang Li Xue!
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was currently hiding in the dark alley as she canceled her [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya and let Yaya take some rest in her System''s pet space.
After that, Tang Li Xue activated her transfiguration to transform into her human form.
She also created a Hanfu dress, a veil, and a hooded cloak with her [Energy Maniption], then wore them to cover her body, furry tail, and fox ears.
After making sure that her appearance was tidy, Tang Li Xue activated her [Twin Moons] again to summon out her perfect copy.
Her perfect copy would always have an identical appearance to her the moment she summoned out, and no one would be able to tell the difference.
"You damn abusive boss~! I almost got killed by that old man~! It was really scary you know?! That old man seriously wanted to turn me into a meat pancake~!" The perfect copy started toin angrily to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and quickly interrupted her: "All right, I know, I get it... I am sorry, okay~?! We still have not been out of the danger yet, and those guards might find us any time, so it would be much safer if we split up right now."
The perfect copy still felt a bit upset, but she nodded her head and asked: "Should I head to the south gate to observe that wood-controlling fox? Who knows if we can find a chance to break out of this city and seize the treasure game''s winning reward from that wood-controlling fox, right?"
Tang Li Xue pondered her perfect copy''s suggestion carefully and agreed: "Not bad, your idea is pretty good. Then I will head to the north gate to check whether the guards there have already lessened or not."
After deciding their next n, both of them activated their [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn invisible, and both of them were heading in two opposite directions.
Just when Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were split up, the royal guard''s captain with hispass-like spirit treasure and more than a hundred royal guards and imperial soldiers had already reached there!
But they became extremely confused since there was no trace of fox over there.
"Report, Captain~! Young Master Wang Shan said to us before that his future bride had been kidnapped by that fox. Maybe that fox had possessed and controlled Young Master Wang Shan''s future bride to get away from us?" One of the royal guards bravely said his opinion to his captain.
The eyes of the royal guard''s captain instantly became brighter after he heard his subordinate''s words and eximed excitedly: "You are absolutely right~!"
The royal guard became even braver and quickly added another guess: "Captain, there is also some possibility that fox might have the ability to disguise as civilian or to turn invisible..."
The royal guard''s captain frowned deeply when he heard it this time as he muttered: "It would be quite tricky if that fox really had them."
But the royal guard''s captain quickly realized that Tang Li Xue''s trace showed by hispass-like spirit treasure actually pointed in two different directions right now.
"What a tricky sinister beast~!" The royal guard''s captain gnashed his teeth in anger and annoyance as he took out hismunication talisman from his spatial ring and asked for more backup from his higher-ups.
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy still did not know that they would face relentless pursuit from the imperial side, so they were still sticking to their previous n.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still pretty far from the south gate of the Imperial City, but she could already watch the fierce battle between the wood-controlling fox against several experts from the imperial side from afar.
Well, actually... it was not exactly a fierce battle since the wood-controlling fox was currently using so many clones to y hide-and-seek with those several Nascent Soul Stage experts from the Imperial side.
Neither Tang Li Xue nor her perfect copy could really understand how that wood-controlling fox managed to fool those Nascent Soul Stage experts'' divine senses.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was trying to sneak closer to check and analyze how that wood-controlling fox did it, an army of royal guards suddenly rushed toward her from behind!
To make it worse, their leader was actually the Nascent Soul Stage General, so her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] could not hide from them!
"Uhhh... My situation is really bad right now~! Can you please quickly un-summon me back to get away from them?!" The perfect copy informed the real Tang Li Xue through their mind connection.
"It is impossible to do at this time! My situation is a lot worse than you! Can you just run away and find a ce to hide over there?!" Tang Li Xue replied with a panic tone.
Tang Li?Xue really did not lie!
Currently, she was pincered by two Nascent Soul Stage generals from the royal guard and the imperial soldier at once!
Tang Li Xue had already hastily turned back into her fox form and entered [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya.
She even activated [Wind Guardian Blessing] and [Wings of Freedom] at the same time to increase her flying speed several times without any hesitation!
Then she used [Breezing Step] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and flew with her maximum breakneck speed toward the east gate to escape from the pincer assault of the two Nascent Soul Stage generals!
Even though the two Nascent Soul Stage generals could not immediately catch up to her with her current extremely fast speed, but the flying speed of those two Nascent Soul Stage generals was not much worse than her either!
If the buff from [Wind Guardian Blessing] and [Wings of Freedom] ran out, those two Nascent Soul Stage generals would surely catch up to her in the blink of an eye!
Tang Li Xue was still hesitating on whether she should use her [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy right now or try to stall for more time instead.
But the situation of her perfect copy was actually even more miserable than her right now...
Without extremely high speed like the real Tang Li Xue, there was nothing much that the perfect copy could do against the Nascent Soul Stage general.
Even though the perfect copy already tried her best to run away with [Water Mirage] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], and she had also already activated [Wings of Freedom] buff after transformed back into her fox form, but the Nascent Soul Stage general still could easily destroy all of her [Water Mirage] clones and caught her before she could run far.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only un-summon her perfect copy before the Nascent Soul Stage general could use something like the Soul Searching Technique on her perfect copy.
However, Tang Li Xue actually bumped into another Nascent Soul Stage expert guarding the east gate!
"It is really over now..." Tang Li Xue muttered in resignation.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she immediately changed the trajectory of her flight toward another direction, but she realized that she had alreadypletely surrounded by four Nascent Soul Stage generals from four different directions!
It was truly a checkmate!
There was really no way for her to escape this time!
"No~! Not yet~! It is still not over yet~!" Tang Li Xue eximed as she persistently refused to give up!
[Multiple Wind Clones]~!
[Water Mirage]~!
[Twin Moons]~!
"All~! Come out~!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she split into several hundreds of identical clones all of a sudden!
Just when Tang Li Xue had already prepared herself to fight until herst drop of blood in this hopeless situation in order to grab thest straw of hope... the vision in front of her suddenly got distorted!
Before she even realized what just happened, she had already been sent back to Treasure Ind.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
She instantly felt really awkward right now, but she still sighed in relief and felt thankful for the timely teleport.
Chapter 667 667: Unexpected Sneak Attack!
Chapter 667 Chapter 667: Unexpected Sneak Attack!
When Tang Li Xue saw the treasure box in front of her, she immediately grabbed it happily with her paws.
No matter how many treasure boxes she had already obtained in this Foxes Hunting Festival, she still felt very excited and addicted the moment she opened them.
But she decided to suppress her urge to open the treasure box in the spot since this ce was not exactly safe.
Tang Li Xue hugged the treasure box and took the chance when her [Wings of Freedom] buff and [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya was not over yet to fly swiftly from that ce.
She nned to find a safer ce to hide first before enjoying the victory fruit of her hard work.
On her way, she thought and found a lot of problems in this treasure game.
Some of them were the problems she had caused because of her indecision, but most of them were because the difficulty of this treasure game was actually much higher than the previous treasure games.
In the previous treasure game where she needed to infiltrate into City Lord''s mansion to save kidnapped foxes, she only needed to face the peak of Formation Core Stage experts at best, but in this treasure game, she actually got chased by several Nascent Soul Stage experts at once!
"It seems the difficulty of the next treasure games will only get higher and higher. Forget aboutpleting that impossible quest from System, it might even be hard for me to survive in the next few treasure games." Tang Li Xue sighed in frustration as she lost her confidence.
When she was still thinking hard about how to increase her chance of surviving and winning the next treasure game, suddenly... a sharp wooden spear appeared from Tang Li Xue''s right side before she could even react!
BOOOOOOOMMM~!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (1/3)]
Despite her [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection having blocked such a powerful lethal attack for her, Tang Li Xue''s little furry body still got blown off more than a hundred meters!
She fell down from the sky like a meteor and crashed into a rock cliff.
Then she bounced down again, smashed into dozens of huge trees, and fell onto ake before she stopped.
Tang Li Xue jumped out of theke and coughed violently because she identally swallowed someke water, but she still hugged the treasure box tightly with her paws.
Even though Tang Li Xue had not seen the one whounched a fatal sneak attack on her just now, but she could already guess the culprit in her heart.
"Come out~! Is there still any need for you to hide after your sneak attack fails?! I know it should be you... nasty damned wood-controlling fox~!" Tang Li Xue shouted with a cold tone.
The green-colored fox slowly walked out from behind the tree while clicking her tongue in amazement and asked with a curious tone: "Tsk, tsk, tsk... How could you guess that I was the one who attacked you? It could be another fox, right?"
Tang Li Xue snorted in disdain as she replied with a displeasing tone: "You really think everyone other than yourself is stupid, don''t you? That tracking scent, it should be you who secretly put it on me, right? No, you should also secretly put it on the other oblivious fox too."
"Since the very start, you had already nned to use us to rob the imperial treasury and obtain the extra reward from the treasure game, then you will rob it from us in the end!" Tang Li Xue tantly exposed the wood-controlling fox''s scheme.
Tang Li Xue always suspected that the royal guards put the tracking scent on her before, but after the treasure game ended, she immediately found something odd about it.
The reason was because Little Loki told her that the khaki-colored fox also had the tracking scent through their mental connection when they fought against her in the Imperial Treasury Warehouse before.
Then Tang Li Xue found it very strange because if the royal guards put the tracking scent on them, why they could not find the khaki-colored fox who had already sneaked and hid in the Imperial Pce?!
The only conclusion she got from it was that it was not the people from the imperial side who put the tracking scent on them!
Thus it only left the wood-controlling fox as the only suspect!
From there, Tang Li Xue did not even need to think too much to find the reason for the wood-controlling fox put the tracking scent on them...
The wood-controlling fox''s goal should only be the treasure box reward they got after obtaining the imperial treasury!
Even though Tang Li Xue had already gotten rid of the tracking scent on her before, but the tracking scent from the khaki-colored fox got stuck on Tang Li Xue again when she fought in a melee battle against the khaki-colored fox to grab back the spatial ring from her before.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have any free time to get rid of the tracking scent on her after that, so the wood-controlling fox could use it to find her right now.
"Hahahahaha~! You are quite a smart one~! But it was already toote for you to realize it. Now, you better be a good fox and give that treasure box to me before I lose my patience." The wood-controlling fox sneered mockingly at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her anger and replied coldly: "Do you really think I will give the treasure box to you just like that?"
The wood-controlling fox sighed in disappointment as she muttered: "It is really unfortunate. I thought you were different from others, but it seems you are just another stupid fox like the others."
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The wood-controlling fox did not even bother to speak with Tang Li Xue again as the ground under their feet suddenly shook violently!
Gigantic vines and roots instantly sprouted out rapidly from the ground!
"Behold~! The omnipotent nts that my master granted to me~!" The wood-controlling fox proudly shouted to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s expression became grim as she stared coldly at the wood-controlling fox.
Tang Li Xue realized that the green vassal mark on the wood-controlling fox''s shoulder was currently shining brighter.
''Is this the power granted by that green vassal mark? Or that green vassal mark amplified her power by several folds?'' Tang Li Xue thought while frowning deeper.
Before Tang Li Xue could think of some good n, the wood-controlling fox had already begun to attack her: "Go, my babies~! Turn that fox into your fetilizer~!"
All the tips of the gigantic vines bloomed into crimson flowers, and they actually showed mouths filled with sharp teeth in the middle of the crimson flowers!
Several of them rushed hungrily onto Tang Li Xue as if they wanted to devour her so badly!
Tang Li Xue''s furry body shuddered in shock and horror when she saw those frightening gigantic crimson flowers rushing at her while opening their mouth filled with sharp teeth!
Tang Li Xue hastily flew in a zigzag pattern to dodge their attack!
But despite their enormous size, their reaction speed was actually amazingly fast!
Although Tang Li Xue managed to avoid their attack, those gigantic crimson flowers instantly changed their movement and used their body as a whip to hit Tang Li Xue instead!
Of course, Tang Li Xue could still easily dodge all of them since she still had [Wings of Freedom] buff, and she was also in [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya.
With her current speed plus Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes], it should be impossible for their attack to hit her.
But out of Tang Li Xue''s expectations, those gigantic crimson flowers were actually spewing out green poisonous gas all of a sudden!
There was no way Tang Li Xue could avoid the green poisonous gas since she was so close to those gigantic crimson flowers!
Tang Li Xue thought she should be all right since she had two powerful bloodlines, [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline, plus [Sun And Moon Aegis] which should make her invulnerable to any poison.
Unfortunately, she waspletely wrong this time...
The green gas was not only deadly poisonous but also extremely corrosive!
CCRRRSSS~!
When the green poisonous gas was spreading, Tang Li Xue''s fur and skin were instantly corroded by it!
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs in pain, and she immediately used [Hurricane Barrier] to keep away the green poisonous gas from her!
But before she could feel relieved, the lethal wooden spear suddenly appeared once more!
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (0/3)]
The lethal wooden spear struck Tang Li Xue for the second time before she even had any time to react!
Tang Li Xue got sted away, and the gigantic crimson flowers would not let this chance go as they quickly rushed toward Tang Li Xue to swallow her down!
Chapter 668 668: (Spoiler Title at the Bottom of This !)
Chapter 668 Chapter 668: (Spoiler Title at the Bottom of This Chapter!)
Tang Li Xue forcefully spun her small furry body in mid-air to change her flying trajectory and barely avoided being swallowed by the gigantic crimson flowers.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs in frustration as she really did not even have any time to take a breath.
The several gigantic crimson flowers and the wood-controlling fox took turns to keep attacking her without giving her any chance to counterattack at all.
Moreover, the wood-controlling fox''s wooden spear attack was not only extremely powerful and fatal, but it was also very fast and undetectable.
The moment her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed the wooden spear hade toward her, it had already hit her before she could have any time to set any defense to block it.
Even though Tang Li Xue really hated to admit it, but this despicable wood-controlling fox was definitely smarter and stronger than her... at least for now.
"Since I could not defeat her by myself... then I only need to call more allies to face her~!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she took out Little Loki from her System''s pet space.
Then she also used her [Multiple Wind Clones] plus [Water Mirage] to confuse all of the gigantic crimson flowers and wood-controlling fox!
In that instant, Tang Li Xue''s furry figure split into hundreds of identical figures!
Moreover, Tang Li Xue also sneakily summoned out her [Twin Moons] perfect copy and made her perfect copy mixed with the other hundreds of identical figures!
''Little Loki, you try to make that despicable fox busy and distract her attention!'' Tang Li Xue gave Little Loki her instruction through their mental connection.
''How about me?! What should I do?! Should I y with those ugly flowers?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked.
''Do you even need to ask?! You just need to hide for now and try to find an opportunity to sneak attack that despicable fox and kill her in one fell swoop!'' Tang Li Xue annoyedly exined to her perfect copy.
Little Loki activated its [Phantom Splitters], and its small figure split into three.
Three Little Lokis used [Instant Teleportation] at the same time, and they suddenly appeared around the wood-controlling fox who was standing on one of the gigantic vines!
[sh and sh]~!
Three Little Lokis shed toward the wood-controlling fox from three different directions and swiftly shed their sharp ws at her!
PUUFFF~! PUUFFF~! PUUFFF~!
Unfortunately, three Little Lokis actually got caught by rattan growing out from the wood-controlling fox''s body before their sharp ws could reach her!
"What an amusing creature~! You surely are fast, but not as fast as me~!" The wood-controlling fox sneered mockingly at Little Loki who got bound by the rattan vines right now.
Little Loki''s expression instantly became much colder as it red at the wood-controlling fox with eyes filled with killing intent while thinking: ''I really hate this one so much that I want to swallow her so badly~!''
The wood-controlling fox shuddered slightly in fright at Little Loki''s cold greedy stare, but she immediately regained herposure and unleashed several rattan whips toward three Little Lokis!
[Scythe w Qi] x3~!
Three Little Lokis released [Scythe w Qi] toward each other to cut all of the rattan whips and rattan binds!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]~!
The real Little Loki quickly locked the wood-controlling fox''s senses and movement with its skill, while its two [Phantom Splitters] attacked her with their [Scythe w Qi]!
But before their [Scythe w Qi] could hit the wood-controlling fox''s body, the gigantic vine under their feet suddenly shook and pushed her away from the [Scythe w Qi]''s trajectory, so it made the wood-controlling fox manage topletely avoid the [Scythe w Qi]!
When the effect of Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] wore off, the wood-controlling fox still remained uninjured andughed at Little Loki again: "Hehehehe, I told you it was futile~!"
While Little Loki was busily fighting against the wood-controlling fox, Tang Li Xue was not idle at all.
Several gigantic crimson flowers swept all of Tang Li Xue''s clones in only a few moments, but it also bought Tang Li Xue some time to set up something to fight against those gigantic crimson flowers.
Tang Li Xue condensed a pair of deep blue [Sun Dragon ws] and made them hold a huge axe created with her [Energy Maniption]!
She also did not forget to imbue the huge axe with her [Sharp Edge Power] to make it many times sharper!
Tang Li Xue actually wanted to make a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] holding a pair of huge axes, but unfortunately, her [Sharp Edge Power] could only be imbued on one object for now.
After destroying more than one hundred of Tang Li Xue''s clones, several gigantic crimson flowers assaulted the real Tang Li Xue again, but this time, Tang Li Xue had already been prepared to face them!
PUUUUFFF~!
The [Sun Dragon ws] swung the huge axe and managed to cut down one of the gigantic crimson flowers!
"Muahahahaha~! Come on~! Don''t you all want to eat me so badly?! Thene here and eat me now~!" Tang Li Xue smugly provoked the gigantic crimson flowers.
Who knew that it only took a few seconds for another gigantic crimson flower to grow again on the gigantic vine that Tang Li Xue cut down just now?!
Moreover, the gigantic crimson flower that Tang Li Xue cut also grew a gigantic vine on its stem, so the total number of gigantic crimson flowers actually increased by one rather than decreasing!
Tang Li Xue: "....."
"Uh... Well, forget what I just said... I am sorry, okay? Can we just be one with nature and live peacefully from now on?" Tang Li Xue tried to persuade the gigantic crimson flowers, but of course, those gigantic crimson flowers answered by attacking her again!
Tang Li Xue hastily dodged their simultaneous attack whileining in anger: "Who said wood element weak against metal element?! I really wanted to beat them up so badly right now~!"
At this time, her perfect copy suddenly asked Tang Li Xue through their mental connection: "Uh, it seems Little Loki facing a lot of difficulties against that despicable fox... Should I help it now?"
"What~?! Damn it!" Tang Li Xue cursed as she looked at Little Loki''s condition through her perfect copy''s shared vision.
The wood-controlling foxpletely toyed with Little Loki right now.
She did not even look at Little Loki seriously at all.
But Tang Li Xue also knew that Little Loki''s current skills and abilities were perfectly countered by that wood-controlling fox.
Of course, Little Loki''s trump card, [Heaven''s Devour], was not included, but unfortunately, it could not be used in this Foxes Hunting Festival.
"Little Loki~! Let''s switch opponents ~! You can handle these crimson flowers while I will face that despicable fox!" Tang Li Xue told Little Loki through their mental connection.
Little Loki was a bit unwilling to disgracefully back down against the wood-controlling fox, but it also knew that it could not defeat her with its current abilities.
Little Loki and its two [Phantom Splitter] clones used [Instant Teleportation] to retreat farther from the wood-controlling fox.
When the wood-controlling fox urged the gigantic vines under her feet to chase after Little Loki, Tang Li Xue had already flown toward her with breakneck speed!
However, Tang Li Xue still left her [Sun Dragon ws] that held a sharp huge axe to help Little Loki face those annoying crimson flowers.
The wood-controlling fox chuckled at the iing Tang Li Xue and asked with a ridiculing tone: "Do you also want to y with me? Or do you n to give up already and offer that treasure box to me?"
As a dozen rattans grew out from the wood-controlling fox''s body, Tang Li Xue unleashed [Spirit Shock] to interrupt the wood-controlling fox''s action!
The wood-controlling fox instantly staggered as she felt dizzy by Tang Li Xue''s [Spirit Shock].
Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to take this chance to unleash a swift fatal attack on the wood-controlling fox!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
BBOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s paw mercilessly struck the wood-controlling fox''s head heavily!
"Do it, right now~!" Tang Li Xue signaled her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately activated her [Wings of Freedom] buff as she shed swiftly toward the thrown-off wood-controlling fox!
She also imbued [Sharp Edge Power] onto her right w as she unleashed [Tiger Roaring sh] toward the wood-controlling fox from behind!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue activated [Shadow sh] to teleport at the wood-controlling fox''s shadow as she unleashed another fatal attack toward her!
[Tiger Roaring sh] x2~!
ROOOOOOAAAAARRR~!
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy unleashed [Tiger Roaring sh] from the wood-controlling fox''s front and behind!
To make sure their simultaneous attack really hit the wood-controlling fox, Tang Li Xue went all out and cast [Mystic Whisper] on the wood-controlling fox!
"Stop moving and do not do anything~!" Tang Li Xue shouted while using her [Mystic Whisper].
Tang Li Xue''s words prated directly into the wood-controlling fox''s deepest consciousness and made her momentarily unable to do anything!
BBAAAAAAAAANNNGG~!
Both [Tiger Roaring sh] struck the wood-controlling fox at the same time!
Tang Li Xue''s [Tiger Roaring sh] pierced through the wood-controlling fox''s chest, while her perfect copy was even more merciless as she aimed at the wood-controlling fox''s neck and also managed to pierce through it.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief while muttering: "Sigh... Atst, we finally win..."
Her perfect copy happily cheered: "Yup~! You owe me for winning this treasure game for you, so can you give the next treasure to me? I really want to at least taste it once~!"
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes at her perfect copy, but when she tried to pull out her paw from the wood-controlling fox''s chest, she found that she actually could not pull it out!
"Hehehehe... Surprise~! Do you really think this is already over?" The wood-controlling fox slowly raised her head while sneering at Tang Li Xue.
The scene was truly horrifying like something out of a horror movie, even Tang Li Xue almost fainted on the spot because of it.

Tang Li Xue tried to pull her paw harder in panic, but she still could not pull it out from the wood-controlling fox''s chest because several rattan vines had already ensnared her paw too tightly.
Those rattan vines even spread toward her elbow as if they wanted to swallow her whole body!
"You stupid~! Use your mes to burn her~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily reminded her.
Surprisingly, her perfect copy was actually much calmer than the real Tang Li Xue in this dire situation, so she could think of a quick solution for their problem in a split second.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs to clear her mind as she used her deep blue me of pride to burn the wood-controlling fox!
BWOOOOSH~!
The wood-controlling fox''s entire body instantly lit in the deep blue mes!
Even though the power of the deep blue me of pride was much weaker without Tang Li Xue entering [Perfect Assimtion] mode with the Phoenix of Pride, but it should be more than enough to burn the wood-controlling fox''s entire body to nothingness in only a few dozens of seconds!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy swiftly jumped back at the same time to keep their distance from the burning wood-controlling fox since it was not impossible that the dying wood-controlling fox suddenly burst out herst strength and dragged both of them to die with her.
After the extremely hot deep blue me of pridepletely burned the wood-controlling fox''s entire body to nothingness, both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy finally sighed in relief.
However, both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy immediately realized that something was not right.
The gigantic crimson flowers were actually still fighting fiercely against Little Loki right now!
If they really had already killed the wood-controlling fox, those gigantic vines and crimson flowers should have not been able to move around or attack anyone anymore since there should be no one controlling them anymore!
So, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy stared at each other with solemn expressions as they concluded that the wood-controlling fox was still alive!
p~! p~! p~! p~!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy turned around and saw another wood-controlling fox emerge from the gigantic vine and pped her paws at them while sitting leisurely and showing an amusing smile on her face.
"You guys are not bad at all~! As I expected from the fox who could survive until this far~! Unfortunately, that is still far from enough to defeat me as one of the most powerful foxes handpicked directly by the Apex Predator Fox~!" The wood-controlling fox yfully praised Tang Li Xue and boasted about herself again.
At this time, Tang Li Xue suddenly remembered the previous scene when several Nascent Soul Stage experts from the Imperial side were having a lot of trouble dealing with tens of the wood-controlling fox clones near the south gate of the Imperial City.
Tang Li Xue felt quite strange when she saw that scene before.
How could those several Nascent Soul Stage experts have difficulties just to deal with the wood-controlling fox''s clones?!
Right now, she finally tasted what those Nascent Soul Stage experts felt at that time...
"Did you really think you were the only one who had clone skills?! I have it too~! Let us see which one is more powerful~!" The wood-controlling fox said as a dozen other identical wood-controlling foxes emerged from the gigantic vines.
The expression of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy turned pale when she muttered to the real Tang Li Xue: "Uhhh... This is clearly not looking good at all for us. Do you still have any other ideas to defeat her?"
Tang Li Xue thought seriously for a few seconds before she patted her perfect copy''s shoulder while hugging the treasure box tighter and said through their mental connection: "I am counting on you to stall some time for me and Little Loki to escape from here~!"
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes disdainfully, but she also knew that they might almost have no chance to win against these more than a dozen wood-controlling foxes.
They already faced so much trouble defeating one wood-controlling fox before, so how could they stand a chance against these more than a dozen wood-controlling foxes?!
But after thinking for a while, the perfect copy immediately replied: "Hey, don''t tell me you really think I can face these dozen despicable foxes and those scary crimson flowers alone?! I would certainly get stomped to death by them in only a few breaths!"
Before Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could think even further about their next n, those dozen wood-controlling foxes had already dashed toward them from all directions!
"Damn it~!" Tang Li Xue cursed in anger as she summoned out her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], to help them face these dozen wood-controlling foxes!
ROOOOOAAAARRRR~!
Since the strength of [Golden Winged Serpent] was a bit too low at this moment, Tang Li Xue decided to let it merge with her instead.
The [Golden Winged Serpent] who danced in the sky transformed into a golden light and merged with Tang Li Xue''s paws as it turned into a pair of golden gauntlets.
[Summon Rain]~!
Tang Li Xue activated her [Golden Winged Serpent]''s exclusive skill without any hesitation.
Even though water elemental was quite useless against wood, but the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s passive skill, [High Water Affinity], would be activated as long as there was a lot of water around it.
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Tang Li Xue''s overall stats were boosted again by [High Water Affinity], and she easily traded several heavy blows against those dozen wood-controlling foxes at once without falling behind at all!
"Err, just to remind you... Is it bad for you to do this? You should already know that only fire attacks could hurt them, right?" Her perfect copy asked Tang Li Xue with a doubtful tone.
"Then do you have any other idea~?! Without the stat boost from [High Water Affinity] and [Wind God''s Eyes]''s prediction, they would have already beat me up so badly like a punching bag right now!" Tang Li Xue angrily replied.
"Wow, you are pretty strong~! Then what if I add ten more?" One of the wood-controlling fox''s clones said while sneering at Tang Li Xue.
Another ten wood-controlling foxes suddenly emerged again from the gigantic vines. Added with the previous clones, there were around two dozen wood-controlling fox clones in total right now!
Tang Li Xue instantly turned around and flew as fast as she could from there!
What a joke! She could barely hang on against more than a dozen wood-controlling fox clones before, so how could she stand a chance against two dozen wood-controlling fox clones?!
"Damn you~! How could you leave me alone here?!" The perfect copy shouted in anger as she quickly followed Tang Li Xue from behind. Because the duration of her [Wings of Freedom] buff was not over yet, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could still fly freely on the air right now.
"Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue hastily called Little Loki.
Little Loki swiftly used its [Instant Teleportation] and suddenly appeared on top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
Tang Li Xue swiftly flew away from there as fast as she could as she nned to just run away from the wood-controlling fox.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
But before they could run far, countless vines suddenly grew rapidly from the ground!
Then they weaved with each other and covered the entire area in the form of a huge dome!
"Hehehehehe... Do you think you can run away from me just like that?! There is no way you can escape from my grasp with your meager strength!" All the wood-controlling fox clones said in unison whileughing mockingly at Tang Li Xue.
"Now what~?! Do any of you have any other idea to face that annoying bast*rd or some way to escape from here?" Tang Li Xue asked her perfect copy and Little Loki.
"What a spectacr sight~! This could already be called pseudo-domain, right?" The perfect copy muttered in awe as she looked at the enormous wooden dome.
Tang Li Xue scolded impatiently: "This is not the time for us to admire our opponent''s ability, so keep your focus on thinking about how to get out of this dire situation!"
"All right, I get it~! How about trying to burn that wooden wall with your mes? At least, try to create a hole in it, so we can escape through it. I will try to negotiate with her to buy some time for you to do it." The perfect copy gave her a suggestion.
"Sigh... I hope it really works!" Tang Li Xue nodded her head in agreement.
The perfect copy turned to face the wood-controlling fox clones and said with a ttering smile on her face: "Hello, Miss beautiful and kind fox~! You are so powerful, and we are really nothingpared to you. Please ept our treasure box~! But can you please spare us and let us go?"
Chapter 670 670: Final Struggle!
Chapter 670 Chapter 670: Final Struggle!
"All right, then bring your treasure box here and give it to me right now." One of the wood-controlling fox clones immediately agreed at the perfect copy''s plead, but the mocking smile on her fox face showed that she would never trust any of their words at all.
The perfect copy instantly got choked and became speechless at the wood-controlling fox''s reply.
"Cough, uhh... Miss beautiful and kind fox, can you please take down your vine wall and let us go first? Don''t worry we will definitely leave the treasure box behind for you before we run awayter~!" the perfect copy coughed and tried to stall for more time.
One of the wood-controlling fox clones sneered as she replied with a yful tone: "Do you know that lying is a bad thing? And bad kids need to be punished~! Then this grandma will teach you a harsh lesson in the ce of your parents~!"
Under the control of the wood-controlling fox, several giant crimson flowers and gigantic vines rushed swiftly toward them at once!
The perfect copy had long been prepared, so she hastily flew to the right and left in a zigzag pattern with lightning speed to avoid their attacks!
SWOSH~! SWOSH~! SWOSH~!
The perfect copy barely dodged their relentless assault. She could even feel the wind generated by their rapid powerful attacks.
"Damn it~! Have you done it yet?!" The perfect copy impatiently.
Actually, Tang Li Xue had already tried to burn the enormous wooden dome a few moments ago with her deep blue me of Pride, but the result was far from as good as they expected.
Even though Tang Li Xue had stopped the heavy rain a few moments ago, and her me of Pride managed to burn away the wet vine wall, but the other vines quickly grew and weaved to cover the burned vines.
In short, those vines were growing faster than the me of Pride could burn!
"Shut up~! Do you think these things are easy to burn?!" Tang Li Xue scolded her perfect copy as she condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and used [Sun Dragon Fangs] to burn and tear down the thick vine wall.
Unfortunately, her effort was still futile...
The vine wall was simply too thick, and those vines were also growing too fast.
Even the burning and destructive power of the [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs]bined could not keep up with the growth speed of those vines.
Just when Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs and determined to keep trying, those countless vines suddenly turned into countless sharp spears and stabbed at her!
Tang Li Xue never expected that the vines could suddenly attack her, so she reacted a bit toote!
Thankfully, Little Loki who sat on the top of her head made it move.
Little Loki jumped down swiftly while using its [Scythe w Qi] to cut down all of those attacking vines before they could touch Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue quickly took that chance to fly farther and keep her distance from the vine wall before those vines couldunch another wave of attack toward her.
"That was a close one... Thank you very much, Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue nervously said when she thanked Little Loki while patting its little furry head gently with her paw.
Tang Li Xue turned around and red at the wood-controlling fox clones while saying to her perfect copy and Little Loki: "It seems our only way to survive is to defeat that despicable fox."
The perfect copy became pessimistic and muttered with a desperate tone: "Do we really have a chance of winning against her? We do not even have any way to find the real her until now~!"
"Nyaaaaw~!" Little Loki angrily growled at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy for being pessimistic before fighting to the end.
"All right~! We may not have any chance to win against her, but at least we should try our best, so we will not feel any regret after getting eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festivalter." Tang Li Xue said as she tried to be more optimistic.
Then Little Loki, Tang Li Xue, and her perfect copy rushed at once toward the wood-controlling fox clones in tacit understanding.
The wood-controlling fox clones only smirked at them while muttering: "It looks like you all had made up your mind to die together~! Then I will dly grant your wish~!"
Several giant crimson flowers and gigantic vines quickly blocked right in front of them andunched rapid whip attacks toward them!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy swiftly dodged their attacks by slipping into the narrow gap between those giant crimson flowers and gigantic vines!
But this time, the wood-controlling fox immediately used a new trick against them!
Countless smaller vines instantly grew on the stems of those Several giant crimson flowers and gigantic vines, and they bound Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy in one breath without giving them any chance to react!
Tang Li Xue hastily burned those smaller vines to free herself and her perfect copy, but it was a bit toote since one of the giant crimson flowers had already swallowed the three of them in one gulp.
Little Loki could easily use [Instant Teleportation] to get away from it, but Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could not do it.
Tang Li Xue once again tried to use her deep blue me of Pride to burn away the giant crimson flower that swallowed the three of them before the acid liquid in its body could melt them.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue bumped again into the previous problem.
The burning and destructive power of her me of Pride could not match the giant crimson flower''s regeneration.
In this desperate situation, Tang Li Xue suddenly felt an extreme heat rising from her Dantian!
YIIIIIIIIIIII~!
The Phoenix of Pride let out a deafening cry as it flew out from Tang Li Xue''s Dantian and burned down the entire giant crimson flower in one swing of its wings!
"You damn bird~! You finally woke up~! Are you a pig or what?! Why the hell are you always sleeping?!" Tang Li Xue scolded the Phoenix of Pride, but she secretly felt d and relieved when she saw the Phoenix of Pride had already woken up.
The Phoenix of Pride stared back disdainfully at Tang Li Xue instead.
It was as if it said to Tang Li Xue: "You dare to me me for yourself being weak and useless?! I am still a baby and in the growth spurt phase, so it is natural for me to sleep a lot. How could you me me for that?!"
Tang Li Xue almost coughed out a mouthful of blood in anger at the Phoenix of Pride''s reply.
Her perfect copy hastily interrupted their quarrel: "All right, I know both of you should miss each other so much after not seeing each other for some time, but you two should focus on our current situation first~!"
Both Tang Li Xue and the Phoenix of Pride red at the perfect copy, but before they could argue with her, the other giant crimson flowers and gigantic vines already rushed toward them to attack them again!
The Phoenix of Pride flew toward Tang Li Xue and merged with her without even asking for her permission at all.
[Perfect Assimtion]~!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s [Divine Possession] with Yaya automatically got canceled.
Yaya, who had just been kicked out from Tang Li Xue''s body, puffed her cheek as her face turned red in anger.
After merging with the Phoenix of Pride, Tang Li Xue could instantly sense that the Phoenix of Pride had actually grown much stronger than before.
Tang Li Xue must admit that even though the dumb bird was really unreliable, but there was no need to doubt that it was extremely powerful!
Tang Li Xue recalled that the Phoenix of Pride said that it was in its growth spurt phase right now, and it should be true.
Tang Li Xue threw her treasure box toward her perfect copy while saying to her: "Keep this treasure box for me~! You guys do not need to help me. Let me handle this despicable fox alone~!"
But she secretly gave another instruction to Little Loki, Yaya, and her perfect copy through their mental connection: "In this [Perfect Assimtion] mode, it should be no problem for me to face all of them for a while. You three should try to track down the real despicable fox and find her instead!"
Little Loki, Yaya, and her perfect copy secretly nodded back to Tang Li Xue in agreement.
Even though Tang Li Xue currently held a huge advantage against the wood-controlling fox in her [Perfect Assimtion] mode, but as long as she could not find the real one, the wood-controlling fox could keep using her power to summon other clones and vines to slowly deplete Tang Li Xue''s energy and stamina.
Therefore, they must find the real wood-controlling fox as soon as possible and kill her in one fell swoop!
[Phoenix Wings]~!
Tang Li Xue condensed a pair of deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back as she flew toward the wood-controlling fox clones!
The wood-controlling fox hastily controlled the other crimson flowers and gigantic vines to assault Tang Li Xue again!
[Scattered me Feathers]~!
Tang Li Xue pped the [Phoenix Wings] on her back rapidly and shot dense deep blue me feathers onto the iing crimson flowers and gigantic vines!
BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~!
The dense deep blue me feathers exploded and burned all of those crimson flowers and gigantic vines into nothingness in only a few breaths of time!
Chapter 671 671: Nowhere to Hide or Run!
Chapter 671 Chapter 671: Nowhere to Hide or Run!
The current power of Phoenix of Pride had increased exponentially again, and it could easily be seen when it burned down all of those crimson flowers and gigantic vines so quickly.
"Woah, it seems that the previous scorching golden fruit is really a good thing for the dumb bird''s growth." Tang Li Xue eximed in awe.
Of course, the exponential growth of Phoenix of Pride was not all good for Tang Li Xue as her energy consumption would also increase several times, and her control over the me of Pride when she was in [Perfect Assimtion] mode would further decrease.
But Tang Li Xue did not bother to think so much about it because she had extreme confidence that she would also be many times stronger after she evolved into [Rare] grade, and all of those problems would be solved by then.
On the contrary, Tang Li Xue even hoped that all of herpanions such as Phoenix of Pride, Yaya, and Little Loki would have such rapid growth speed, so they would not fall behind her.
After all, she has a System that would help her grow rapidly to be a Deity. It would be extremely worrying if herpanions could not keep up with her.
At this moment, even the wood-controlling fox was astonished by Tang Li Xue''s sudden power outburst.
She even regretted a lot for not finishing Tang Li Xue off as quickly as possible before and instead toying around with her until now.
Unfortunately, there was no medicine to cure regret nor did she have any power to turn back time, so she could only increase her effort to deal with Tang Li Xue!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The entire enormous wooden dome shook greatly as the wood-controlling fox increased her power output to do something even more outrageous.
When Tang Li Xue saw the countless small vines that weaved the entire enormous wooden dome merged and formed countless ws covering the entire enormous wooden dome!
"Damn it~! This does not look good for us at all~! Err... This technique also looks a bit like Several Thousand Wooden Buddha Hands. No, this even looks much more terrifying than that~!" Tang Li Xue muttered nervously with a trembling voice.
At least, Tang Li Xue still had some confidence to block them if their form was only hands or palms, but those demonic sharp ws were apletely different matter!
"Hehehehe... AHAHAHAHAHA~! Now, I want to see how many you can burn with your tiny little mes~!" All of the wood-controlling foxesughed eerily at the same time while mocking Tang Li Xue.
Thousands of wooden demon ws suddenly rushed toward Tang Li Xue at once to tear her down!
Moreover, the other thousands of wooden demon ws alsounched attacks on the perfect copy, Yaya, and Little Loki!
There was no ce to hide or escape at all since all of them were currently trapped inside the enormous wooden dome while several thousands of wooden demon ws were covering the entire wall of the enormous wooden dome!
[Fiery Bullets]~!
Tang Li Xue shot deep blue me bullets rapidly toward the iing wooden demon ws to prevent them from getting close to her!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
With the improvement of Phoenix of Pride, the explosive power of each [Fiery Bullets] had increased by several times surpassing even Tang Li Xue''s [Fire Bomb] before she entered the Inheritance Ground Tablet.
Unfortunately, they were still far from enough to repel all of those thousands of wooden demon ws!
Tang Li Xue''s [Fiery Bullets] only managed to destroy a few hundred of them before they almost reached her!
Just when those thousands of wooden demon ws almost shed at Tang Li Xue...
[Fire Wall]~!
Tang Li Xue created a deep blue wall of mes to block those wooden demon ws!
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Under the assault of thousands of wooden demon ws, even Tang Li Xue''s [Fire Wall] could not withstand them for a few breaths of time and exploded.
Tang Li Xue utilized the shockwave from the explosion and used [Sun Dragon sh] to fly further swiftly and keep her distance from those thousands of wooden demon ws.
"Did any of you find the trace of the real despicable fox?! I cannot hold on for too long!" Tang Li Xue asked the other through their mental connection.
"Are you acting stupid or what?! Those disgusting ws are also attacking us right now, so how could we have time to do it?!" The perfect copy scolded impatiently as she was forced to use [Mother Earth''s Gift] to create a sturdy stone wall and [Energy Maniption] to create a transparent barrier to protect herself.
Despite all of her efforts, thousands of wooden demon ws could still forcefully break all of them in only a few moments!
Compared to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, both Yaya and Little Loki were actually in a much better situation.
Currently, Yaya flew agilely with [Breezing Step] to dodge those wooden demon ws while using [Wind Guardian Blessing] plus [Traceless Wind Cover] on herself. She also used [Multiple Wind Clones] plus several dozen [Compressed Wind Swords] to make them confused while fighting against them.
Even if those wooden demon ws managed to find the real her and get close to her, Yaya still has [Tempest Prison] and [Hurricane Barrier], so she should be able to hold out for a few more minutes until shepletely exhausted all of her energy.
After all, Yaya had already helped Tang Li Xue fight with [Divine Possession] mode just now, so more than half of her energy had been depleted right now.
Meanwhile, Little Loki had already used [Phantom Splitters] to create two clones. With its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] and [Instant Teleportation], it was impossible for those thousands of wooden demon ws to even touch its fur.
When those thousands of wooden demon ws besieged Tang Li Xue from all directions without giving her any chance to run, dodge, or hide, Tang Li Xue pped its [Phoenix Wings] on her back rapidly as she shot dense deep blue me feathers at them!
[Scattered me Feathers]~!
BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~!
The dense deep blue me feathers exploded and burned down several hundreds of wooden demon ws in the blink of an eye, but it was still far from enough since the other wooden demon ws had already reached her!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure was instantly covered in deep blue mes to block their simultaneous attack!
[Phoenix Cloak]~!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Those thousands of wooden demon ws were not afraid nor cared about the deep blue mes that protected Tang Li Xue''s entire body.
They mercilessly stabbed Tang Li Xue at once from all directions like a dense rain of spears!
Tang Li Xue''s [Phoenix Cloak] had already tried its best to protect Tang Li Xue by burning so many of the attacking wooden demon ws before it finally copsed from the relentless attack of so many wooden demon ws!
At this critical time, Tang Li Xue activated her [Mystic Whisper] and shouted: "Stop moving~!"
All of those thousands of attacking wooden demon ws were instantly halted for a few moments, Tang Li Xue quickly took this chance to wield one of her current most powerful skills.
[me Tiger Roaring ws]... plus [Sharp Edge Power]~!
A huge image of the White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes was condensed behind Tang Li Xue and majestically roared into the sky!
RROOOOOOAAARRR~!
The huge White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes rushed forward and swung its me ws angrily toward those thousands of wooden demon ws!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
The White Tiger''s me ws were extremely powerful and unstoppable as they cut and burned more than a thousand wooden demon ws with unimaginable speed, leaving so many criss-cross deep blue me shing marks on the air!
After a few breaths of time, the huge image of the White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes finally faded away and dissipated, but it had already eliminated more than half of the threat for Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath in astonishment, but her breath also became more ragged as the energy consumption of [me Tiger Roaring ws] was actually also increased by several times ording to its power increase.
Before Tang Li Xue could feel a bit relieved, the burned-down wooden demon ws were growing again from the other spot of the vines to make up for the ones who had already turned to nothingness by Tang Li Xue''s [me Tiger Roaring ws]!
The despair in Tang Li Xue''s heart had magnified as she really had an intention to give up at this point.
They could not find any trace of the real wood-controlling fox at all until now while the wood-controlling fox sessfully made them too busy to search and find the real her.
At this rate, the wood-controlling fox only needed to slowly exhaust their stamina and energy before finishing them off one by one.
At this time when everyone felt hopeless and hadpletely run out of ideas, Little Loki suddenly told a brilliant idea to them through their mental connection!
Chapter 672 672: Counter Tracking!
Chapter 672 Chapter 672: Counter Tracking!
"Damn, why did we never think about it before?! Little Loki, you really are the best~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in awe as she praised Little Loki while busily blocking the relentless attack from the thousand wooden demon ws with [Reflective Barrier] and stone wall created from [Mother Earth''s Gift].
Little Loki wanted to put on its usual smug expression and pose, but unfortunately, it could not do it right now since it was still repeatedly using its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] and [Instant Teleportation] to momentarily stop those thousand wooden demon ws that attacking it and keep its distance with them.
"Good job, Little Loki~! Although the chance might be only 50-50, but at least it gives us some hope to win this battle~!" Tang Li Xue also delightfully praised Little Loki.
[Fire Breath]~!
BWOOOOSSH~!
Tang Li Xue opened her mouth and spurted out deep blue mes of pride toward the iing thousand wooden demon ws!
Even though her [Fire Breath] managed to burn down so many wooden demon ws, but it was only a few hundred at most.
The rest of the wooden demon ws had already encircled Tang Li Xue and tried to attack Tang Li Xue from all directions!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she tried to calm down her ragged breath.
To be honest, she was almostpletely exhausted at this time.
The Phoenix of Pride might have improved so muchpared to before, but the energy and stamina consumption while they entered [Perfect Assimtion] had also increased many times.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue had already fought against the khaki-colored fox and even tried to escape from several Nascent Soul Stage experts from Imperial Pce before, so it was natural for her energy and stamina to be almostpletely consumed at this point.
In fact, if not for her overall stats which had been greatly improved and almost reached the maximum limit right of her current grade right now, she might have alreadypletely exhausted and fainted long ago.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue still had some crucial tasks to do right now, and she must not copsed in exhaustion yet!
In order for Little Loki to carry out its brilliant idea, Tang Li Xue still needed to buy more time for Little Loki and make those annoying several thousand wooden demon ws too busy to bother Little Loki until itpleted what it had to do.
Of course, Tang Li Xue definitely could not do it at all with her current almost exhausted state!
Therefore, she had no choice other than to go all out right at this moment!
"Damn it~! My [Twin Moons] just finished its cooldown recently~! Why the hell I must sacrifice it again this time?! Sigh, this is all that damned despicable fox''s fault~!" Tang Li Xue cursed in anger.
Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation as she shouted with a firm voice: "Come here, Yaya and my perfect copy~!"
Yaya and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy turned into a green and white light, then shed toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue merged with both of them without any hesitation!
[Merge]... plus [War Goddess Mode]~!
([Merge]: Merge the perfect copy with the user''s body. Doubled the user''s overall stats for 1 hour! Note: The perfect copy needs to be sacrificed to activate this ability, and [Twin Moons] will enter the cooldown state.)
*Ding!
[The user has entered perfect synchronization with Yaya and Phoenix of Pride!]
[Entering War Goddess Mode!]
[War Goddess Mode] with Yaya and Phoenix of Pride, plus [Merge] skill with her perfect copy, this was undoubtedly Tang Li Xue''s current strongest form!
Although Meng Yue had already warned her not to use this [War Goddess Mode] too much or her beast core would get shattered sooner orter, but she really could not help it this time.
Without using the [Merge] skill to fuse with her perfect copy and obtain the portion of stamina and energy from her perfect copy, Tang Li Xue would not be able to hold on and fight for much longer.
Without entering [War Goddess Mode], Tang Li Xue would not be able to handle all of the several thousands of wooden demon ws and make them too busy to bother Little Loki, so Little Loki could carry out its n without being interrupted by wooden demon ws.
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki could only hope that the wood-controlling fox would not realize what they were secretly doing, if not, their n might be all for naught.
Without Yaya and her perfect copy, the several thousand wooden demon ws could only be targeting Tang Li Xue instead.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath while saying with a cold expression: "All right, then let''s begin~! You damned despicable fox, I hope you have already prepared for this~!"
Just when those several thousand wooden demon ws almost reached Tang Li Xu, she suddenly swiped one of her paws forward casually.
[Cyclone Firestorm]~!
A huge pir of hurricane mixed with extremely hot deep blue mes flew forward swiftly!
Like a giant grinder, [Cyclone Firestorm] sucked thousands of wooden demon ws and burned all of them in one breath!
The current Tang Li Xue waspletely overwhelmingly powerfulpared to before. She could even solve those several thousands of wooden demon ws in one move!
Even all of the wood-controlling fox clones that were used as spectators to keep track of their battle were instantly dumbfounded.
"Wh... What?! She could still get even more powerful?! How the hell did she do it?!" The wood-controlling fox eximed in shock and disbelief.
After waking up from her astonishment, the wood-controlling fox gnashed her fangs in resentment, envy, and jealousy.
In fact, the wood-controlling fox could wield so many powerful abilities because she borrowed the power from the vassal mark bestowed by the Apex Predator-level fox.
But Tang Li Xue was different from her, Tang Li Xue did not have any vassal mark.
But Tang Li Xue could be stronger again and again without borrowing the strength from the Apex Predator-level fox!
The wood-controlling fox sneered coldly as she muttered with a mocking tone: "So what?! Even if you be even much stronger again, you still cannot defeat me as long as you cannot find the real me~! Hehehehe.. Hahahahaha~! I really want to see how much longer you canst~?!"
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The ground below and the enormous wooden dome shook greatly as the wood-controlling fox increased the number of the wooden demon ws even more and pushed them to reach tens of thousands!
The wooden demon ws were not only sprouting from the enormous wooden dome but also from the ground!
"You are not as smart as before. It is useless to add more of those toys. In my current state, I can solve all of them with only one move~!" Tang Li Xue chuckled and said with a tone filled with confidence.
Of course, she was only bluffing to attract the wood-controlling fox''s hatred and attention toward her, so the wood-controlling fox would not pay any attention to Little Loki at all.
Even though the previous [Cyclone Firestorm] was extremely powerful, it also consumed a lot of her energy. Tang Li Xue might only be able to use it two or three more times.
However, Tang Li Xue''s provocation was actually working extremely well right now as the wood-controlling fox hadpletely forgotten about Little Loki and only focused all of her attention on attacking Tang Li Xue.
[Cyclone Firestorm]~!
Tang Li Xue created another huge pir of hurricane mixed with extremely hot deep blue mes to burn away all of the tens of thousands of wooden demon ws!
Unfortunately, her [Cyclone Firestorm] could only burn half of them at this time since there were simply too many dense packed wooden demon ws covering all directions.
"Hahahahaha~! You talk so arrogantly but you actually fail to burn all of them~! Then you can die right now~!" The wood-controlling foxughed mocking as she controlled the rest of the wooden demon ws to tear Tang Li Xue apart.
"Oh, really?! Then what if I add this?!" Tang Li Xue replied as she pped the transparent fairy wings and deep blue phoenix wings behind her rapidly.
[Scattered me Feathers] plus [Whirlwind Vacuum Wave]~!
The dense deep blue me feathers mixed with [Whirlwind Vacuum Wave] creating a horizontal whirlwind wave that propelled dense deep blue me feathers forward and amplified their explosive power to unimaginable levels.
BOOOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOOOMM~!
The densely packed wooden demon ws were instantly cleared by arge amount leaving only one or two thousand of them!
Tang Li Xue easily solved the rest using [Violent Wind and Fire Breath].
By blowing the deep blue me of Pride and violent wind from her mouth, the rest of the wooden demon ws that rushed toward her were burned to nothingness.
The wood-controlling fox gnashed her fangs as her eyes turned red in anger and resentment. She shouted to mock Tang Li Xue: "Oh, you are not bad. Then how about eating another serving of those toys?! Hahahaha... No matter how good or strong you are, you still cannot defeat me as long as you cannot find the real me~!"
At this time, the real wood-controlling fox suddenly heard a voice from right behind her.
"Mew... Nyan... Nyaaa~! (I... Found... Youuuu~!)"
Chapter 673 673: Final Gambling!
Chapter 673 Chapter 673: Final Gambling!
The wood-controlling fox was extremely startled. Even her body instantly stiffened when she heard Little Loki''s milky voice.
But before the wood-controlling fox could react or do anything, Little Loki had already used one of its most powerful yet most despised abilities!
[Buddha''s Purification Light]~!
OOOMMMMMMM~!
Little Loki''s tiny furry figure was shining with blinding golden light all of a sudden!
The sound of Sanskrit prayer prated directly into the wood-controlling fox''s deepest consciousness, and it echoed louder and louder in her mind!
The wood-controlling fox felt like her mind and brain got fried in that instant as she howled and screamed out loud in extreme pain while holding her furry head with both of her paws.
The blinding golden light was extremely eye-catching in the dark environment of the enormous wooden dome created by the wood-controlling fox.
Tang Li Xue could instantly find their exact location in one nce through the blinding golden light as the sign!
"So you are hiding there~!" Tang Li Xue muttered with an indifferent expression.
Previously, Tang Li Xue had already guessed that the cowardly and scheming wood-controlling fox would never show herself to them, so all of the wood-controlling foxes on the battlefield were definitely only her clones.
Tang Li Xue was really sure that the real wood-controlling fox had hidden in a safe ce while using all of her clones as her ''eyes'' to keep track of their every move.
But knowing all of those waspletely useless for Tang Li Xue since she did not have any way to find the real wood-controlling fox that was hiding.
At that time, Little Loki suddenly came up with a brilliant idea to track down the real wood-controlling fox''s hiding ce!
It was by using Little Loki''s sensitive sense of smell to trace the source of the tracking scent on Tang Li Xue!
The wood-controlling fox might never have expected that someone could use the tracking scent and trace it back to find her since her tracking scent was basically odorless, colorless, and traceless.
The wood-controlling fox could use the tracking scent to find Tang Li Xue by using a special type of nt as a pointer, not by relying on her sense of smell.
Even Tang Li Xue''s sharp sense of smell which had already been strengthened several times by [Extrasensory Perception] failed to smell the tracking scent on her, so it should be impossible for the wood-controlling fox to smell it too.
Only the special Little Loki could faintly smell the tracking scent, maybe it rted to Little Loki''s treasure-tracking ability or food-seeking ability as Taotie''s cub, but even Tang Li Xue and Little Loki itself still did not know the exact reason for that.
The wood-controlling fox should have never thought that the only reason for her downfall was the little ck kitten she did not even bother to pay any attention to until now!
Tang Li Xue took this only opportunity to create a bow and arrow with her [Energy Maniption], then imbued them with the power of Yaya''s wind and deep blue me of Pride!
"So, you damn coward is hiding deep in the underground all this time?! Tsk, I should have guessed it long ago..." Tang Li Xue said as she controlled the arrow and loaded it to the bow, then pulled the bowstring.
[Shockwave Impact] to increase the lethality by several times~!
[Sharp Edge Power] to increase arrow sharpness by several times~!
[Whirlwind Vacuum Wave] to push the arrow forward and increase its speed by several times~!
Tang Li Xue even applied the spiral mes method on the arrow to increase the prative power and firepower many times!
"Oh, right... I almost forgot this one..." Tang Li Xue muttered as she applied her weapon skill to the arrow too.
[Final Strike] activated~! (Deal 3x damage, Critical Rate +20%, Attack Speed +30%)
"Little Loki, go away from there quickly~!" Tang Li Xue warned urgently through their mental connection.
Little Loki immediately used its [Instant Teleportation] as rapidly as it could to go farther from there as Tang Li Xue finally unleashed the arrow toward the real wood-controlling fox''s hiding ce!
The arrow instantly vanished from Tang Li Xue''s view as it shed with astonishing speed!
The wood-controlling fox who just awakened from the excruciating pain in her head tried to urge her power to block it, but it was already far toote!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The great explosionpletely obliterated the wood-controlling fox, and it kept spreading around destroying even her enormous wooden dome!
Under the power imbued by Tang Li Xue in her merge form with her perfect copy, Yaya, and Phoenix of Pride, the destructive power of this arrow had even surpassed the previous [Purple Destruction Wave]!
Tang Li Xue let out a sigh of relief as she quickly flew higher to avoid being injured by the great destructive explosion.
"Little Loki, are you all right? You should have already gone far away from there, right?" Tang Li Xue worriedly asked through their mental connection.
However, Little Loki suddenly appeared right on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head with its [Instant Teleportation] while yawningzily.
Tang Li Xue smiled happily, but just as she wanted to praise Little Loki for its great job, something very bad she had never expected actually happened right at this moment!
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
"PUUUFFF~!" Tang Li Xue spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood from her mouth as her consciousness became blurry.
But Tang Li Xue could still feel that the vitality energy in her body was dispersing at an extremely fast rate!
Yes, what Meng Yue warned her before had just happened right now!
Tang Li Xue''s beast core could no longer bear the massive power of three creatures (her perfect copy, Yaya, and Phoenix of Pride) and finally shattered to pieces!
Tang Li Xue could no longer maintain her [War Goddess Mode], and her [War Goddess Mode] was automatically canceled.
When the unconscious Yaya almost fell down from the sky, Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs to put Yaya into her System''s pet space despite that she was already in extremely horrible condition.
The Phoenix of Pride was very worried about Tang Li Xue''s condition at this moment, but it also could not bear it anymore since its own condition was not that good because of the [War Goddess Mode]''s horrifying bacsh.
The Phoenix of Pride entered Tang Li Xue''s Dantian and fell asleep under the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl].
When Tang Li Xue fell down from the sky, Little Loki summoned out its two [Phantom Splitter] clones.
Little Loki tried its best to catch the half-conscious Tang Li Xue before she crashed onto the ground while its two [Phantom Splitter] clones caught the falling treasure box.
Little Loki hastily brought Tang Li Xue away from there to find a safer ce for her to rest.
Meanwhile, one of Little Loki''s two [Phantom Splitter] clones looked around for a few moments and used [Instant Teleportation] to somece.
Then it actually dragged out another treasure box from under the rubble!
Surprisingly, this treasure box actually belonged to the defeated wood-controlling fox after she won the previous treasure game, but she immediately nned to rob Tang Li Xue''s treasure box, so she did not have time to use and digest her own reward yet.
So, Tang Li Xue and Little Loki managed to obtain two treasure boxes this time!
"Cough, cough, cough... Stop, Little Loki... Put me down now..." Tang Li Xue whispered weakly to Little Loki.
Little Loki hesitated for a while, but it still decided to obediently follow Tang Li Xue''s words.
Little Loki put down the dying Tang Li Xue gently onto the ground.
When Little Loki saw Tang Li Xue''s rapidly withered body, it almost burst into tears.
Tang Li Xue took this chance to put Little Loki into her System''s pet space while exining with telepathy: "I am sorry to make you sad, Little Loki. But you do not need to worry since this is only a false body in Foxes Hunting Festival."
After that, Tang Li Xue tried to use [Quick Restore] divine ability topletely recover herself back to normal.
Unfortunately, it waspletely failed...
To use any of her divine abilities, she needed to consume some of her vitality energy, including her [Quick Restore].
But her beast core had shattered, and all of her vitality energy had dissipated right now.
Her [Quick Restore] might be able to restore herself back to normal no matter how bad her condition was, but she did not even have any vitality energy to use [Quick Restore] at this point.
In short, it was truly a checkmate for Tang Li Xue this time.
''Sigh, how sad... It seems my journey in this Foxes Hunting Festival is finally over this time... But before that, let me gamble for onest time~!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she took out one of her two [Greater Lucky Stickers] from her system''s item storage.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs to firm her determination as she used the [Greater Lucky Sticker] on herself.
*Ding~!
[You have consumed a (Greater Lucky Sticker)!]
[Greater Lucky Sticker Buff Duration: 00:10:00]
Tang Li Xue slowly crawled to the two treasure boxes and opened them whilemunicating with her system in her mind: ''System, use the two [Silver Lottery Tickets] right now~!''
[The silver wheel of fate started to spin!]
Tang Li Xue did not bother to care about the result of the lotteries since she could feel that her withered body got weaker and weaker with every passing second. She even felt extremely sleepy already right now.
Tang Li Xue quickly opened the two treasure boxes with her snout and hastily swallowed what was stored inside them.
She could only silently pray in her heart that the precious resources stored inside the two treasure boxes could help her out of this critical situation.
Chapter 674 674: Rejection!
Chapter 674 Chapter 674: Rejection!
Tang Li Xue instantly passed out right after she gulped down the precious resources stored inside the two treasure boxes.
The violent bacsh from [War Goddess Mode] kept ravaging Tang Li Xue''s withered body when she was unconscious making her breath weaker and weaker.
Without her beast core and vitality energy, even her skills such as [High-Speed Regeneration] could no longer work to heal Tang Li Xue''s body.
Although Tang Li Xue had already used [Greater Lucky Sticker], and she really hoped that a miracle would happen right at this moment, so she could at least go further in this Foxes Hunting Festival, but luck and miracles could only work within reasonable limits.
Currently, Tang Li Xue had not only lost her beast core and vitality energy, but she had alsopletely exhausted her Qi and mental energy after the continuous fierce battles against the khaki-colored fox, several Nascent Soul Stage Experts, and the wood-controlling fox.
Then she even had to suffer a violent bacsh from [War Goddess Mode] that was much fiercer than before since the Phoenix of Pride had already be a lot stronger.
When all of those factors werebined, even the buff from [Greater Lucky Sticker] could no longer help her out from her current dire situation.
Countless cracks started to spread on Tang Li Xue''s entire body.
Just when Tang Li Xue''s withered and cracked body almost shattered and turned into a group light... a radiant golden light suddenly covered her entire body!
"Sigh... Bad Silver Sister~! I already told you to never use it again before, but you still use it~!" The blue-haired little girl scolded while puffing her cheek cutely as she suddenly appeared right beside the dying Tang Li Xue.
The blue-haired little girl sat beside the unconscious Tang Li Xue and caressed Tang Li Xue''s body gently while smiling yfully and said: "I wonder what I should do to punish youter~! Should I punish you by apanying me until this festival is over?"
Under the nourishment from the radiant golden light, Tang Li Xue''s withered and cracked body began to recover rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"All right, then I have already decided~! Silver Sister, you must stay by my side until the end of this festival, okay~?! Don''t worry, I will protect you this time, so no one will dare to touch you anymore~!" The blue-haired little girl giggled happily.
But surprisingly, Tang Li Xue''s body still transformed into a group of white light and dissipated after a few moments.
The blue-haired little girl widened her eyes in astonishment.
She frowned deeply and thought for a while before muttering in a dejected tone: "So, Silver Sister decided to refuse me in the end?"
However, Meng Yue immediately recovered as she giggled even more brightly, and said: "Interesting~! You are truly fascinating, Silver Sister~! I became even more curious about you~! I wonder what kind of secret you have that you are so afraid of me finding out, so you even decided to be eliminated instead of staying with me until the end of this festival?"
Meng Yue soared into the sky again while she spoke with a calm smile on her beautiful but immature face: "There is no need to hurry... I am sure we will certainly meet again soon enough, Silver Sister~!"
Meng Yue''s figure disappeared once again as if she were only an illusion.
.....
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes, and she found out that she had alreadye back to Instructor Mei Lan''s Residence.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Hei Yinghao had already impatiently waited for her toe back since long ago.
"Uwaaaa~! Little Xue~! You are finally back~!" Bingbing who was already in her human form eximed excitedly.
She quickly jumped toward Tang Li Xue who was still in her fox form and hugged her tightly.
Tang Li Xueughed as she stared at Instructor Mei Lan with a relieved expression: "I am sorry to make all of you worry, but here I am back, everyone~!"
"Xue, I am also very worried and miss you very much~!" Hei Yinghao shouted as he also jumped to hug Tang Li Xue, but he only got kicked by Tang Li Xue instead as usual.
Instructor Mei Lan approached Tang Li Xue with her usual gentle smile on her face: "Wee back, Little Xue~! It seems your harvest should be the most abundant among the others."
Tang Li Xue nodded while replying: "Well, my harvest is not bad... and I am ready to evolve to the next grade again. However, I need a few items toplete the requirements for my evolution. Instructor Lan, can you help me find them?"
"Eh? What? You are ready to evolve again?!" Instructor Mei Lan eximed as she widened her eyes in shock and disbelief.
"You... you are not kidding me, right?" Instructor Mei Lan asked again with a solemn expression.
It was not that Instructor Mei Lan did not believe Tang Li Xue''s words, but that was too unbelievable.
The other beasts needed hundreds of years and some of them even needed thousands of years to evolve to the next grade, but Tang Li Xue only evolvedst year, and she said she was ready to evolve again soon!
In short, Tang Li Xue would evolve twice in less than two years!
That was clearly too mindblowing for any beasts to ept!
Tang Li Xue looked firmly at Instructor Mei Lan and nodded.
From Tang Li Xue''s serious stare, Instructor Mei Lan finally knew that Tang Li Xue was not kidding or lying to her at all.
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression became extremely solemn as she hastily warned Tang Li Xue and the others: "We must keep the matter about Tang Li Xue''s evolution a secret, and no fifth foxes should know about it. Do you all understand?!"
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Hei Yinghao felt confused by Instructor Mei Lan''s sudden warning, but they still obediently nodded their heads in agreement.
Instructor Mei Lan sighed as she tried to exin to all of her students: "If Little Xue could really evolve twice in less than two years, it would be an extremely huge matter since some beasts might think she has a treasure that can help the beast to evolve faster. Little Xue might fall into danger since someone would certainly covet it."
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Hei Yinghao instantly understood Instructor Mei Lan''s intention was to protect Tang Li Xue''s safety.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled delightfully as she saw her three students had grown up a lot after participating in this Foxes Hunting Festival.
"It is good if you all understand. You three can go home and take a rest for today." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Hei Yinghao, but she actually told Tang Li Xue alone to rest since Bingbing and Hei Yinghao had already returned a few days ago.
Tang Li Xue hastily went to the toilet in Instructor Mei Lan''s Residence first to transform back into her human form.
Then she created a set of white clothes to wear with her [Energy Maniption].
After that, the trio Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Hei Yinghao bid farewell to Instructor Mei Lan and head back to the Residential Building together.
But before that, Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue to write what she needed for her evolution after taking enough rest and gave it to her tomorrow, so Instructor Mei Lan could help to look for themter.
On the way back to the Residential Building did not talk too much with Bingbing and Hei Yinghao since she was stillmenting her rejection of Meng Yue''s help in the end.
Yes, Tang Li Xue actually regained her consciousness when Meng Yue used her power to recover Tang Li Xue''s dying body.
Tang Li Xue never expected that the buff from [Greater Lucky Sticker] was so effective that it could even create a miracle just like that!
Unfortunately, she really could not ept Meng Yue''s offer to apany her until the end of the Foxes Hunting Festival, so she could only decide to reject Meng Yue''s help, and finally, she got eliminated from the Foxes Hunting Festival.
At first, Tang Li Xue also wondered if she could just run away from Meng Yue after shepletely recoveredter on, but after pondering for a while, it seemed really impossible for her to do that.
Even when she was with Lei Qian''er before, Meng Yue could still easily catch both her and Lei Qian''er if she really wanted it.
In short, if she epted Meng Yue''s help andpletely recovered, then she absolutely must stay with Meng Yue until the end of the Foxes Hunting Festival!
Just staying with Meng Yue for a while before had put a lot of pressure on her. She was really afraid that she would think about any of her secrets without realizing it, and Meng Yue would know them by reading her mind.
If she must stay by Meng Yue''s side for a few more days, all of her secrets might really bepletely uncovered by Meng Yue!
That was the reason why Tang Li Xue thought that it would be better for her to just be eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival earlier instead.
The true might of Heaven''s Favored Child was not something she could even imagine after all.
Tang Li Xue regretfully sighed in her heart: ''It was really such a pity...''
She still felt really unwilling in her heart, but there was nothing she could do about it.
Chapter 675 675: Tang Li Xue’s Biggest Regret!
Chapter 675 Chapter 675: Tang Li Xue''s Biggest Regret!
When Tang Li Xue''s group came back to the Residential Building, both Hei Yinghao and Bingbing invited Tang Li Xue to eat a delicious lunch at the luxurious restaurant on the first floor.
But Tang Li Xue rejected their invitation and said that she was too tired right now, so she wanted to go back to her room and quickly take a rest.
After saying goodbye to Hei Yinghao and Bingbing in front of her room, Tang Li Xue used her silver card to open her room.
All of the tension Tang Li Xue felt during the Foxes Hunting Festival was finally relieved, and her heart was at ease when she saw the familiar courtyard and simple house inside the room.
"Sigh... That feels really like a very long time, but I am finallying back home~!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a gentle smile on her stunningly beautiful face.
Tang Li Xue might be extremely sleepy right now, but she did not immediately go to sleep after she entered her room.
Tang Li Xue hastily took out both Yaya and Little Loki from her System''s pet space, then worriedly checked their condition first.
Little Loki waspletely all right, and it only fell asleep in exhaustion, but Yaya''s condition was different.
Yaya was currently still facing the violent bacsh from the previous [War Goddess Mode].
Moreover, because the Phoenix of Pride''s strength got a lot stronger than before, the current violent bacsh from [War Goddess Mode] also became a lot worse than before.
The previous beast core destruction incident made Tang Li Xue scared and traumatized, so she was very afraid that something dangerous would happen to Yaya because of the [War Goddess Mode]''s violent bacsh.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth as she quickly took out [Talisman of Regeneration +3] that she already prepared before the Foxes Hunting Festival from her space pouch and used it on Yaya.
Unfortunately, the [Talisman of Regeneration +3] could not cure the violent bacsh effect, just like when Tang Li Xue used it on Lei Qian''er.
Without any choice, Tang Li Xue decided to take out her golden inscription pen from her system storage and a few stacks of nk talisman paper from her space pouch.
She nned to make a new type of talisman based on her [Quick Restore] that previously saved Lei Qian''er from the violent bacsh, [Talisman of Lesser Recovery].
By using her own blood as the medium and ink...
Applying the principle of dual effect talisman to Regeneration Rune and the Quick Restore Rune...
BOOFF~!
Well, it was not strange that Tang Li Xue failed on her first try, but she did not give up and kept trying.
BOOFF~! BOOFF~! BOOFF~! BOOFF~!
After four failure attempts, Tang Li Xue finally seeded on her fifth try!
-----------------------------------------------------
[Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2]
[Effect: Apply Lesser Restore buff on the target. (Heal 1% of maximum HP every 5 seconds and greatly reduce the effect of any Damage over Time (DoT) debuff for 600 seconds.)]
[+1 Effect: Heal +0.5% of maximum HP every 5 seconds and further reduce the effect of any Damage over Time (DoT). Duration +100 seconds.]
[+2 Effect: Heal +1% of maximum HP every 5 seconds and further reduce the effect of any Damage over Time (DoT). Duration +150 seconds.]
-----------------------------------------------------
"Woah, it even bes a +2 talisman~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in awe.
Tang Li Xue hastily threw the [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2] in her grasp onto Yaya.
The [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2] stuck on Yaya''s small body, and its recovery effect instantly started to work.
Yaya''s current condition was not as bad as Lei Qian''er back then, and the effect of [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2] was also more than twice better than the normal one, so Yaya''s condition recovered much quicker than the previous Lei Qian''er.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she saw Yaya''s extremely pale expression turn rosy at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, Tang Li Xue still did not feel at ease, so she decided to keep a close eye on Yaya until Yayapletely recovered.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue felt very guilty for Yaya, because only Yaya got nothing in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
Both Little Loki and Phoenix of Pride had at least consumed one or two precious treasures in the Foxes Hunting Festival, but Yaya did not get anything!
"Sigh, I really should make up for it to Yayater..." Tang Li Xue muttered while shaking her head in guilt.
Then Tang Li Xue remembered that she had not checked what she had obtained after she activated her [Greater Lucky Ticket] previously.
Tang Li Xue nervously opened her system''s log to see it.
-----------------------------------------------------
[Congrattion! You got [Heaven Covering Ne] from the silver wheel of fate!]

[Congrattion! You have achieved level 35! Stat Point +100, Skill Point +15]
[Congrattion! You have achieved level 36! Stat Point +100, Skill Point +15]
[Your quest (The True Heaven''s Favored Child of the Fox n!) had failed! The quest-triggering function would enter a thirty-day cooldown period, and the Host will not be able to trigger any quest during this time.]
-----------------------------------------------------
"Not bad~! With this, all of my stats had already reached my current maximum limit~!" Tang Li Xue said while smiling in delight.
Strength: 5,000
Agility: 4,100 --> 5,000
Toughness: 4,700 --> 5,000
Spirit: 4,700 --> 5,000
"Wait... What the hell is this cooldown period?! I cannot trigger any quest for one month~?! You damn system,e out right now and exin this to me~! Didn''t you say I will not get any punishment even if I fail toplete any quest?!" Tang Li Xue angrily shouted.
[Host, please calm down. Host did not get any punishment such as decreasing some levels or losing any items, right? So, System did not lie.]
"But I cannot take any quest for one month~! It means I cannot get any reward forpleting the quest in this one month~! It is still a huge loss for me~! Can you please do something about it?" Tang Li Xue whined to her System.
This time, her System went silent again, and it no longer responded to Tang Li Xue''s unreasonable request.
"Tsk~! What a Cheapskate System~! Bad review~!" Tang Li Xueined while clicking her tongue in dejection.
After calming down her mood, Tang Li Xue took out the rewards she got from two [Silver Lottery Tickets] and checked their effect.
----------------------------------------------------
[Heaven Covering Ne]
Level: 1
Spirit: +15%
Concentration and focus: +15%
The power of all skills and abilities increased by 10%
Stamina and energy consumption reduced by 10%
Equipment Skill: Spirit Cover (Automatically create a spirit barrier to protect the user''s soul, mind, and consciousness when the user receives any fatal attack targeting them. Duration: 30 seconds. Cooldown: 30 minutes.)
Equipment Effect: Heaven Covering Protection (Shielding the wearer from being seen through by any divination, mind-reading, or investigation abilities).
-----------------------------------------------------
[Equipment Upgrade Card (Lv. 5): Upgrade any equipment to level 5. (Only work for the equipment below level 5.)]
-----------------------------------------------------
After finding out the equipment effect of [Heaven Covering Ne], Tang Li Xue suddenly had the urge to find a block of tofu and kill herself using it.
"Damn it~! I am really a huge idiot~! If I had known that I got this [Heaven Covering Ne], I would certainly ept Meng Yue''s offer without any hesitation before~!" Tang Li Xue muttered while pping her head in frustration.
"Uarrgghhh, you are so stupid, Tang Li Xue~! You should just trust the miraculous effect of [Greater Lucky Sticker] more~!" Tang Li Xue angrily shouted to scold herself.
Previously, Tang Li Xue rejected Meng Yue''s help because she was afraid that Meng Yue would read her mind and know all of her secrets.
But the Equipment Effect of [Heaven Covering Protection] could actually protect the wearer from being seen through by any divination, mind-reading, or investigation abilities!
In short, if Tang Li Xue wore this [Heaven Covering Protection]ter, even Meng Yue would not be able to read her mind anymore!
The ''regret'' word could no longer describe what Tang Li Xue felt right now!
It took a while for her to calm down as she grasped the [Equipment Upgrade Card (Lv. 5)] and started to think: "This card is also not bad. But which equipment should I use it on?"
Tang Li Xue was sure that the equipment skill, stats, and effect would be enhanced after their level increased, but the problem was that Tang Li Xue already had four equipment in total, [Arcane Tunic], [Shadow Striders],[Critical Strikers], and [Heaven Covering Ne] while she only had one [Equipment Upgrade Card (Lv. 5)].
Tang Li Xue first excluded [Arcane Tunic] since she rarely used its equipment skill and effect.
She always preferred to avoid enemy attacks rather than blocking them with her body, so [Arcane Tunic]''s equipment skill and effect did not affect her much.
But the [Shadow Striders],[Critical Strikers], and [Heaven Covering Ne] werepletely different. Their equipment skill and effect were extremely useful for Tang Li Xue!
Chapter 676 676: The Most Dreadful Divine Ability!
Chapter 676 Chapter 676: The Most Dreadful Divine Ability!
[Shadow Striders]''s equipment skill, [Shadow sh], had helped Tang Li Xue a lot until now, and she might use it a lot too in the future.
[Critical Strikers]''s weapon skill, [Final Strike], was extremely powerful since it could increase Tang Li Xue''s attack by 3 times and the attack speed by 30% even though it was only for one attack.
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a few minutes before she gritted her pearl-white teeth as she finally decided to use the [Equipment Upgrade Card (Lv. 5)] on [Heaven Covering Ne].
[Heaven Covering Ne] might not be able to improve herbat power as much as [Shadow Striders] or [Critical Strikers], but at least she could feel reassured from now on.
Tang Li Xue was extremely sure that there should be many other people... or beasts besides Meng Yue who might have divination, mind-reading, or investigation abilities or skills, especially in the Central Continent.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue has too many secrets that the other people or beasts should never know or she might lose her life because of it, such as her System, Little Loki''s true identity as Taotie''s cub, [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl], and so on.
In order for her to sleep peacefully from now on, Tang Li Xue took the [Equipment Upgrade Card (Lv. 5)] and used it on [Heaven Covering Ne].
*Ding~!
[Are you sure to use the Equipment Upgrade Card (Lv. 5) on Heaven Covering Ne (Lv.1)? Yes/No]
Tang Li Xue chose ''Yes'' without any hesitation.
[Congrattions ~! Your Heaven Covering Ne''s level has increased to Lv.5!]
----------------------------------------------------
[Heaven Covering Ne]
Level: 5
Spirit: +27%
Concentration and focus: +27%
The power of all skills and abilities increased by 18%
Stamina and energy consumption reduced by 18%
Equipment Skill: Spirit Cover (Automatically create a spirit barrier to protect the user''s soul, mind, and consciousness when the user receives any fatal attack targeting them. Duration: 50 seconds. Cooldown: 30 minutes.)
Equipment Effect: Heaven Covering Protection (Shielding the wearer from being seen through by any divination, mind-reading, or investigation abilities).
-------------------------------------------------------
"Wow, not bad~!" Tang Li Xue eximed while caressing the shiny [Heaven Covering Ne] in her grasp with a delightful smile on her charming face.
The exnation of equipment skill and effect might not changed, but it could easily be seen that the effect of this [Heaven Covering Ne] had improved so much from its percentage-increasing stats.
Tang Li Xue immediately wore it on her neck as she determined to never take it off from now on.
Tang Li Xue pped her hands excitedly while saying: "All right~! Now it is time to check my two new divine abilities~! I really hope they would be quite powerful~!"
[Ster Banishment]: Borrowing the power of the stars to temporarily banish any target to the empty starry sky. (The duration of the Ster Banishment depends on the difference between the strength of the user and the target.)
"Damn, this divine ability is truly awesome~! Moreover, it is a star-rted divine ability~! So with this divine ability, I have already fulfilled two of four requirements to evolve into [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox]~!" Tang Li Xue clenched her small fist as she shouted cheerfully.
The effect of this [Ster Banishment] might look simple or even tasteless, but it actually has many ways to apply it ording to its user''s will.
Tang Li Xue could use it to temporarily banish her opponent and then throw apressed [Fire Bomb] at her opponent''s previous location after the banishment''s duration was over.
She could also banish her opponent''s attack before it hit her and ran away farther before the banishment time was up!
She could even banish herself to hide from her opponent''s chase!
In short, this [Ster Banishment] would be extremely useful in many situations in the future!
Tang Li Xue impatiently checked the effect of the other new divine ability.
[Wind Burst Step]: Set some destination points, and then the user can instantly burst toward one of the destination points. (The range and the number of destination points depend on the user''s Agility stat.)
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply after she saw the effect of [Wind Burst Step].
"The effect of this [Wind Burst Step]... seems pretty confusing." Tang Li Xue muttered with a doubtful tone.
Tang Li Xue decided to just try to use [Wind Burst Step] instead to confirm the effect.
She created a destination point with her mind before activating the [Wind Burst Step].
BWOOOSSSH~!
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure instantly disappeared, and she appeared right at the ce where she put the destination point before!
"Holy moly, this divine ability is so awesome~! It is really my fault to look down on the divine ability I got under the effect of [Greater Lucky Sticker]~!" Tang Li Xue said in amazement.
Tang Li Xue never expected that this [Wind Burst Step] actually almost had the same effect as teleportation!
But different from teleportation, [Wind Burst Step] only made Tang Li Xue suddenly move at extremely high speed many times beyond her maximum speed toward the destination point.
Even though this [Wind Burst Step] might look inferiorpared to Little Loki''s [Instant Teleportation], but Tang Li Xue did not think so at all.
Imagine if she created a spiked shield with her [Energy Maniption], set the destination point right behind her opponent, and then activated this [Wind Burst Step]... Her opponent would surely not look good after that, right?
Tang Li Xue tried to create more destination points, but she could only create two destination points at most right now. If she created more than two, the previous destination points would disappear.
Moreover, she needed to focus for a few seconds to create a new destination point every time, so it was not that easy to create it amid a fierce battle. It would be best if she could create two destination points before the battle starts.
"Well, not bad~! At least I can shift freely between two destination points for now." Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction.
Tang Li Xue checked on Yaya''s condition for a while.
Yaya''s condition has improved greatly, and she has almostpletely recovered, but she has not regained consciousness yet.
"It seems I cannot sleep yet tonight. But it is okay, then let''s move to the next task~!" Tang Li Xue sighed as she opened her status window on her System.
Yes, many of her skills had reached the master level, so she nned tobine them into one divine ability.
*Ding~!
[(Improved Concentration), (Intense Focus), (Precise Calction), (Razor-Sharp Mind), (urate Prediction), (Indomitable Will), and (Advanced Intelligence Enhancement) can bebined into Divine Ability [Paranormal Intuition]. Do you want tobine it now? Yes/No]
"What the hell~?! Wouldn''t theybine into [Perfect Intuition] before? Why is it be [Paranormal Intuition] right now?" Tang Li Xue muttered in suspicion.
[Because Host had already upgraded all of them to higher tier skills, so theirbination result had also increased by one tier higher too.]
"Ah, that is right~! Previously, they were only [Concentration], [Focus], [Calction], [Sharper Mind], [Prediction], [Strengthen Willpower], and [Intelligence Enhancement] before I upgraded all of them." Tang Li Xue pped her forehead, but she still felt happier since it meant [Paranormal Intuition] was more powerful than [Perfect Intuition].
"Of Course, yes~!" Tang Li Xue chose Yes impatiently.
[You have gained Divine Ability (Paranormal Intuition)!]
[Paranormal Intuition]: Dive into the Sea of Knowledge and peek at the Law of Truth.
"What kind of effect is this?! But it sounds really awesome..." Tang Li Xue said dumbfoundedly.
Tang Li Xue immediately tried to use [Paranormal Intuition].
In that instant, she instantly felt extremely suffocated as if she had been thrown into a deep sea.
The entire deep sea was dazzling golden.
When she observed even more carefully, the dazzling golden sea actually consisted of countless minuscule golden runes and words!
"What... the hell... are... those..." Tang Li Xue softly murmured as her consciousness turned blurry.
Just when her consciousness almost got crushed by the dazzling golden sea, and her soul almost got injured because of it...
WEEENG~!
[Spirit Cover] automatically activated~!
However, Tang Li Xue still fell unconscious after that.
.....
"Yaaaa~! Yayaya~!" Yaya pushed Tang Li Xue''s body lightly to wake her up.
"Urrgghhh... I get it, Yaya... But please just let me sleep for one minute longer... No, ten minutes..." Tang Li Xue muttered as she tried to pull her nket to cover her fox ears, so she could no longer hear Yaya''s voice.
But she quickly realized that she was actually sleeping on the floor right now.
Tang Li Xuezily raised her slender body in a daze while recalling what happenedst night.
Tang Li Xue jumped in panic as she quickly checked her entire body to see if something bad happened to her.
When she found out that everything was all right, and she was still intact. Tang Li Xue finally sighed in relief.
"Damn it~! That was really horrible! I seemed to faintly feel that my entire body was evaporating in that golden sea! Thankfully, it was just my imagination!" Tang Li Xue said with a frightened tone.
Chapter 677 677: The True Might of the Goddess of Flame!
Chapter 677 Chapter 677: The True Might of the Goddess of me!
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes and hastily checked her sea of consciousness.
She actually found a lot of fragmented knowledge in her mind. They might not seem to be useful for her current self, but they made Tang Li Xue faintly understand how to utilize [Paranormal Intuition] properly.
"I see... Previously, I used [Paranormal Intuition] with the intention only to ''try'' it, so my mind almost got flooded and crushed by the sea of knowledge. I almost got killed because of it if not for the [Spirit Cover]''s help." Tang Li Xue muttered as she slowly opened her topaz blue eyes again.
"So, the next time I use [Paranormal Intuition], I must determine the purpose first. It would be best if I could narrow the purpose as much as possible, so the previous ident would not happen again." Tang Li Xue deducted in her mind, but despite that, she still did not dare to try to carelessly use [Paranormal Intuition] again for now.
Tang Li Xue decided to let her perfect copy try it instead after [Twin Moons] finished its cooldownter.
If her perfect copy was here right now, she probably would protest furiously again about Fox''s Rights, Fox''s Abuse, and so on, then raise a rebellion g to resist Tang Li Xue until she was given delicious food to calm down her anger.
"Oh, damn it~! I am almostte~! Instructor Lan would kill me if I camete to her ss on the first day after a long holiday~!" Tang Li Xue jumped in panic as she took the sleeping Little Loki and yful Yaya, then ran to the bathroom to take a quick bath.
After using me of Pride to dry her silky smooth silver hair and the furs on her tails, Tang Li Xue took out a paper and pen from her space pouch to write what she needed for her next evolution.
When she went out of her room, Tang Li Xue met with the sleepy Hei Yinghao and Bingbing who already waited for her in front of her room.
Bingbing excitedly hugged Tang Li Xue''s left arm and asked many things about what had happened to her in the Foxes Hunting Festival while the three of them were heading out from the Residential Building.
Hei Yinghao also nned to hug Tang Li Xue''s right arm, but he was kicked by the angry Yaya since Yaya was sitting on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder.
Meanwhile, Little Loki still dozed offzily while sitting on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
When the three of them were walking on the street leading to the Education Department Building while talking and joking with each other, Tang Li Xue identally saw a huge holographic screen on the top of the tall building at the center of the city that broadcasting the battle in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
Of course, it did not broadcast the low-level battle between vassals, but the fiercepetition and battle between Apex Predator-level foxes.
Yesterday, Tang Li Xue did not notice it, perhaps because her mind was too upied and messy due to her rejection of Meng Yue''s help.
The huge holographic screen was currently broadcasting the battle between an Apex Predator-level fox with extremely powerful me-elemental divine abilities against another Apex Predator-level fox with extremely troublesome wood-controlling divine abilities.
At one nce, the battle between them was almost simr to Tang Li Xue''sst battle in the Foxes Hunting Festival against the despicable wood-controlling fox.
Just as Tang Li Xue halted her step and watched the battle on a huge holographic screen with great interest...
BWOOOSSH~!
The deep blue Phoenix of Pride suddenly flew out from her Dantian and stared menacingly at the huge holographic screen!
''You damn dumb bird~! What the hell are you doing?!" Tang Li Xue scolded the Phoenix of Pride as she smiled apologetically at the other passerby foxes on the street.
Even though the Phoenix of Pride had no intention of attacking anyone, the extreme heat radiating from its body made the other foxes on the street feel extremely ufortable, and they quickly moved away further from the Phoenix of Pride.
Bingbing hastily emitted her freezing power to cool down the surrounding temperature, so the extremely hot temperature would not hurt anyone or burn anything around them.
While Hei Yinghao stood right beside Tang Li Xue vigntly and asked worriedly to Tang Li Xue: "What happened, Xue? Does your me bird sense something dangerous nearby?"
Tang Li Xue shook her head in confusion, but she followed the Phoenix of Pride''s line of sight and stared at the huge holographic screen too.
.....
Floating above the sea of crimson mes which currently burning the entire forest, the two fox girls were facing each other trying to gauge each other''s strength.
The natural beautiful fox girl with long green curly hair said something first: "I know you... You are Tu Shan''s Goddess of me, Bai Huohuo."
The short wavy-haired fox girl with snowy white fox tails and ears replied with a leisurely smile: "Oh? Am I that famous? Hehehehe, you really make me embarrassed."
When Bai Huohuo saw that the expression of the green-haired fox girl became strange, she coughed and spoke again with a more serious tone: "I also know you... You are... Uhhh... Qing Qiu''s... something something gardener..."
The green curly-haired fox girl gnashed her teeth in anger as she shouted: "Qing Qiu''s Flower Demon Garden Master, Yao Ziran~!"
Bai Huohuo pped her hands and eximed: "Yes, that is what I mean~! I know it, so my guess is correct~!"
Tang Li Xue and the others who were watching from the hologram screen: "Err, only the ''Qing Qiu'' part that is correct¡.."
The green curly-haired fox girl unfolded her Demonic Flower Garden Domain in anger!
At that moment, the entire ground was filled with countless charming pink flowers, and all of them grew enormous in the blink of an eye.
Even the sea of crimson mes that burned the entire forest was extinguished because of them, and the color of the entire world seemed to change to pink in an instant!
But Bai Huohuo did not panic at all. She was still behaving leisurely as before while speaking yfully: "Your flower garden is not bad~! Let''s see if they can still put out my mes if I add three more different types of mes~!"
This time, Bai Huohuo threw out four different color mes: crimson, purple, yellow, and green!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Four-colored mes exploded and began spreading to burn the sea of charming pink flowers!
Yao Ziran acted fast as she grew countless huge ck mushrooms and towering trees!
The mushrooms and towering trees absorbed the four-colored mes until the mes subsided considerably.
"Woah~! You are quite strong! Then I will add three more mes~!" Bai Huohuo stillughed yfully as she waved her hand.
Seven different colored mes surrounded her slender figure which was still hovering in the sky.
At this time, Bai Huohuo truly looked like the Goddess of me!
.....
Tang Li Xue grasped in shock as she eximed in disbelief: "Damn it~! Just how many types of mes does she have?!"
"So powerful! So, this is the true power of the Apex Predator-level Fox!" Bingbing said with amazement.
"Humph~! They might be powerful, but I am sure that we can catch up to them soon too! Right, Xue?" Hei Yinghao snorted unwillingly and said to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in agreement.
In fact, she was quite sure that she would certainly catch up to them after she evolved to [Rare] grade beast soon!
"Ya Yaya yaaaayayaya~! (You all will bete if you stand still here~!)" Yaya warned in panic.
"Oh, crap~! Let''s go quickly or we will bete~!" Tang Li Xue hastily told Bingbing and Hei Yinghao.
Tang Li Xue also spoke to Phoenix of Pride: "Don''t worry~! We will certainly be stronger than her soon. At that time, we can try to fight with her, and I will let you y to your heart''s content against her!"
The Phoenix of Pride nodded smugly at Tang Li Xue and entered back into her Dantian.
Tang Li Xue hastily activated her [Wings of Freedom] and grabbed both Bingbing and Hei Yinghao''s shoulders with each of her hands, then used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to head faster toward the Education Department Building.
Yaya even used [Wind Guardian Blessing] on Tang Li Xue to increase her speed by 50% more!
It only took a few moments for them to arrive at the Education Department Building with Tang Li Xue''s current extremely fast speed.
Fortunately, there was no traffic police in Myriad Foxes Academy or they might have already got arrested because of it.
Despite that, they still came a bit toote to Instructor Mei Lan''s ss.
"Your guts have really gotten bigger recently. You three even dare toete on the first day to my ss!" Instructor Mei Lan said menacingly still with a gentle smile on her face.
But it was this gentle smile that made Tang Li Xue''s group traumatized so far until this point, so the three of them lowered their heads and did not even dare to stare back at Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan sighed when she saw their remorse, so she decided to forgive them this time.
Yes, she decided to only increase their homework by one hundred timester.
If Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Hei Yinghao knew Instructor Mei Lan''s intention, they might rather choose to be punished instead.
"All right, you all cane in~! We will start our ss now." Instructor Mei Lan said to them.
Chapter 678 678: Top 3 Strongest Beast Races!
Chapter 678 Chapter 678: Top 3 Strongest Beast Races!
Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao did not dare to dilly-dally and quickly entered the ssroom.
When the three of them entered the ssroom, they saw Li Jing, Huang Hao, and Gan Aomiao already sitting inside the ssroom.
"Hei, you three~! Long time no see~! Where have you been all this time?!" Hei Yinghao cheerfully greeted the three of them.
Tang Li Xue and Bing Yi kicked Hei Yinghao from behind in anger while scolding softly: "Can you just shut your mouth, you Silly Fox~?!"
Their group had alreadye toote, but Hei Yinghao still wanted to chat with the others after entering the ss.
It would be strange if Instructor Mei Lan still did not punish them heavilyter because of Hei Yinghao''s ignorant behavior!
Even Li Jing, Huang Hao, and Gan Aomiao did not dare to return Hei Yinghao''s friendly greeting at this time.
Just like what they expected, Instructor Mei Lan smiled even more kindly which made all the students shudder in fright.
"I see, so your guts have really gotten biggertely. It seems I must teach all of you how to be more humbleter~!" Instructor Mei Lan said with her usual gentle tone.
But all of her students quickly shook their heads to deny it while pointing their fingers at the Hei Yinghao to put the me on him.
Hei Yinghao also hastily shook his head like others, but it was already toote.
"Silly Fox and Bingbing, go to the training room after our ss is over, andplete your training sets for a thousand times today!" Instructor Mei Lan spoke to Hei Yinghao and Bingbing.
"Instructor Lan, why did I also get..." Bingbing wanted to protest, but before she couldplete her words, Instructor Mei Lan added again: "Two thousand times..."
Hei Yinghao pushed away Bingbing and immediately agreed: "Okay, we get it, Instructor Lan~! We willplete it two thousand times today~!"
Hei Yinghao had the most experience in getting punished by Instructor Mei Lan, so he knew exactly that Instructor Mei Lan would only increase their punishment the more they tried to protest or quibble about it.
Tang Li Xue patted Silly Fox and Bingbing''s shoulders with a mourning expression, but her heart secretly felt relieved and d that she did not get punished like them.
After Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao sat on the seats behind the three Li Jing, Huang Hao, and Gan Aomiao, Instructor Mei Lan started her lesson.
"All of you should already know that there are probably millions of different kinds of beast races living in this Immortal World."
"But do all of you know which beast races stand on the top of this Immortal World? Which beast races can be called the true overlord in this Immortal World?"
Instructor Mei Lan asked while looking at all of her students one by one.
The unusual lesson''s topic instantly caught the interest of Tang Li Xue and the other students.
Even thezy Little Loki and well-behaved Yaya who was still sitting leisurely on Tang Li Xue''s head and shoulder were listening with interest.
Instructor Mei Lan pointed her slender finger at the timid Gan Aomiao.
Gan Aomiao stood timidly and answered with an unsure tone: "Err, is it our Fox Race?"
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and told a shocking truth: "Our Fox Race has never even been in the top 3 of the strongest beast races."
All of the students were grasped in shock and disbelief by Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
Especially Tang Li Xue, since she had already seen how powerful those Apex Predator-level Foxes were with her own eyes, not to mention the invincible prowess of the mighty Heaven''s Favored Child of the Fox n, Meng Yue!
''Holy cow... with all of those monsters and you still tell me we cannot even enter the top 3 of the strongest beast races?! Are you kidding me?!'' Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched in doubt.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled when she saw her students'' disbelief and bewildered reaction.
She deliberately told this lesson to her students at this time with the intention of suppressing their arrogance after participating in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
It was certainly normal for them to gain more confidence after their strength greatly increased, but it would be bad if they were too inted and became too arrogant because of it.
Instructor Mei Lan continued to say: "Now, I will tell you the top 3 strongest beast races which you should never provoke in the future."
"The strongest beast race that firmly upied the first ce since ancient times is the Sea Beast Race."
"More than 50% of our Immortal World is the ocean, and the Sea Beast Race undisputedly ruled over all the oceans in Immortal World."
"The total number of the Sea Beast Race might be more than the overall number of allnd beast races and all human racesbined."
"If not for the strength of the Sea Beast Race would be greatly reduced when they leave the water, the Human Race and Undead Race might have already been defeated long ago by the Sea Beast Race."
All students including Tang Li Xue took a deep breath in astonishment.
Tang Li Xue pondered it for a while and thought it made sense that the Sea Beast Race upied the first ce since there were so many powerful creatures in the sea such as whales, sharks, Krakens, and so on.
Even in Tang Li Xue''s previous world where the human race reigned supreme as the top food chain with advanced modern technology still did not dare to fully explore the entire ocean.
Not to mention that in this Immortal World, there should be much more powerful, much more dangerous, much more frightening, stranger, and weirder sea creatures all over the ocean that were countless times bigger than the ocean in her previous world.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered slightly in fear as she suddenly did not even dare to think about swimming in the ocean of this Immortal World.
But from Instructor Mei Lan''s previous exnation, Tang Li Xue could already faintly guess the second strongest beast race after the Sea Beast Race.
''Since the first strongest beast race is pretty much fish, then the second strongest beast race is probably their natural predator...'' Tang Li Xue predicted in her mind.
After sipping a cup of tea to moist her dry throat before continued: "The second strongest beast race, some of you may have guessed it."
"Yes, the second strongest beast race since ancient times is Bird Race."
"Just like the Sea Beast Race had ruled over the entire ocean, the Bird Race is the overlord who ruled over the entire skies."
"In the legend, there are also many stories about powerful mythical birds such as Phoenix, Kunpeng, Roc, Three Legged Golden Crow, Nine-Headed Bird, and many others more."
"Even though almost all creatures can fly after they be strong enough, but no creatures can match the might of the Bird Race who has lived in the skies since they were born."
Li Qing raised her right hand to ask, and Instructor Mei Lan waved her hand to let her say it.
"If Bird Race is really that strong, then why our beast race still cannot defeat the Human Race and Undead Race until now?" Li Qing asked her doubt.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head with an ironic smile on her face while exining: "It is not that easy to win against the Human Race and Undead Race. Each of them has their own advantage to fight against our beast race."
"Human Race had developed flying ban formation. Once they set it up on their territory, even Bird Race could no longer fly in that territory."
"As for Undead Race, no creatures could carelessly approach them since they could suck away the nearby creatures'' life force, cultivation, stamina, and energy."
Li Qing, Tang Li Xue, and the others also quickly understood the difficulty of facing the Human Race and the Undead Race.
Especially Tang Li Xue, since she already had some experience in dealing with the Undead monster and the Human race''s annoying tricky formation in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
Instructor Mei Lan took her lesson back to the previous topic: "Since the first strongest beast race is the overlord of seas, the second strongest beast race is the overlord of skies, so the third strongest beast race should be undoubtedly the overlord who rules over thends."
"Can any of you guess?" Instructor Mei Lan stared at Tang Li Xue.
This time, even Tang Li Xue did not have any idea about it, so she could only guess it blindly.
"Err...Lion? Maybe... Well, since Lion is the king of the forest?" Tang Li Xue answered with an unconfident tone.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled as she said: "Almost correct, so no credit for you. The third strongest beast race is Tiger Race."
''Tsk~! Damn it~! So, it is Tiger Race! How could I never think about it?!'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in frustration.
Chapter 679 679: Interrogation!
Chapter 679 Chapter 679: Interrogation!
Instructor Mei Lan giggled in amusement when she saw Tang Li Xue''s extremely frustrated expression.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue was almost running out of credits, so she urgently needed some credits right now.
Tang Li Xue secretly wondered if her newly self-invented [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] could be sold for a lot of credits.
''It should be able to sell for quite a high price, right? I mean, there might be other potent medicines or more advanced talismans with better healing effects, but my [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] should only be one of a kind since only I can make it.'' Tang Li Xue absentmindedly thought.
''So, it should have a high collectible value, just like an antique vase, or...''
BAAANG~!
Tang Li Xue''s forehead suddenly got struck by something!
"Stop daydreaming and focus back on the lesson~!" Instructor Mei Lan warned with a cold tone.
Yes, it was actually Instructor Mei Lan who just threw a chalk to Tang Li Xue''s forehead to wake her up from daydreaming.
"Yes, Instructor Lan~! I am sorry~!" Tang Li Xue hastily apologized with a wronged expression while rubbing her reddened forehead.
Tang Li Xue might not get injured, but her forehead was actually very painful since Instructor Mei Lan infused the chalk with her high-vibration ability. If the chalk hit the head of an ordinary mortal, their head would have already exploded like a watermelon right now.
Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to punish Tang Li Xue again for now and continued her lesson: "Lions and Tigers may look quite simr since both of them are part of the Feline Race, but they are extremely proud creatures, so they really hate being called wrong."
"All of you must remember this crucial information. it is best to not greet them at all if you are not sure since they might attack you if you call them incorrectly."
"Especially never call them cats or felines in front of their faces, or they might really go all out to kill you."
Instructor Mei Lan warned with a stern tone to all of her students.
Tang Li Xue and all the other students nodded their heads with solemn expressions.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded in satisfaction at her students'' solemn reaction, and she proceeded to say: "Even though?Lions and Tigers may look a bit alike, but their origins are vastly different."
"All Tigers are known as the descendants of White Tiger from the Four Mythical Guardian Beasts, while all Lions im to be the descendants of Qilin."
"Both Lion Race and Tiger Race alwayspete against each other, but Tiger Race is always a bit stronger than Lion Race."
"It is not strange since Tiger and Dragon are alwayspared to each other as Yin and Yang in legends because the White Tiger and Green Dragon are eternal rivals in the Four Mythical Guardian Beasts."
"So far, do any of you want to ask something before today''s lesson ends?" Instructor Mei Lan asked her students.
Bing Yi quickly raised her hand and stood up to ask: "Instructor Lan, what rank is our Fox n in Beast Race? Fourth? Fifth?"
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and replied: "Our Fox n is not renowned for our raw battle strength, but this..." Instructor Mei Lan pointed her index finger on her head.
"As the ''eyes'' and ''ears'' of the entire Beast Race, no one dares to look down on our Fox n. Even the entire Human Race and Undead Race are most wary of our Fox n."
All of the students suddenly felt proud when they heard it.
Tang Li Xue herself had already tasted how terrifying it was when she faced Meng Yue''s mind-reading ability.
"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Instructor Mei Lan asked again.
Bing Yi shook her head, and the other students also went silent.
"All right then, this is it for today." Instructor Mei Lan said as she stood up from her seat.
"Thank you for today''s lesson, Instructor Lan~!" All of the students shouted.
When Tang Li Xue wanted to follow Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao to speak with Li Jing, Huang Hao, and Gan Aomiao, Instructor Mei Lan suddenly called her.
"Little Xue,e here and follow me~!" Instructor Mei Lan told to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue felt confused, but she still quickly followed Instructor Mei Lan from behind obediently.
She also took out a piece of paper from her space pouch and gave it to Instructor Mei Lan.
"Seven-colored Stars Flower and a lot of precious treasures or resources containing star energy?" Instructor Mei Lan asked after she read what was written on the paper.
"Uh, yes... Those are the stuff I need for my next evolution. Is there something wrong?" Tang Li Xue asked with a curious tone.
"But wasn''t your evolution path about the moon before? You are Moon Fox, right? Then what do you need star energy for?" Instructor Mei Lan asked again in puzzlement.
Tang Li Xue instantly became speechless by Instructor Mei Lan''s inquiries.
Should she exin to Instructor Mei Lan that she wanted to evolve into [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox]?
Then she also must exin how could she know about the evolution''s requirements for [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox]ter, right?
Wait... If it was like that, then should she tell Instructor Mei Lan that her System told her so?
Well, it was clearly impossible for Tang Li Xue to do that!
What a huge blunder?!
All Tang Li Xue could do right now was to act stupid...
Fortunately, Instructor Mei Lan was not only extremely smart but also very considerate.
She immediately realized that the reason for that might involve Tang Li Xue''s deepest secret, so Tang Li Xue could not answer it.
Instructor Mei Lan stopped asking about it and muttered: "I will try to ask my acquaintances about these things, but I cannot guarantee that I can really collect all of them."
"Even if some of my acquaintances have them, the price may not be cheap, so you better prepare a lot of credits to buy them. Oh, and you better not tell these things are your evolution''s item requirements to other foxes!" Instructor Mei Lan warned with a stern tone.
Tang Li Xue almost slipped and fell down when Instructor Mei Lan told her that she would need a lot of credits to buy them.
The heck, Tang Li Xue was almost penniless at this moment, so how could she suddenly have a lot of credits to spend?!
Tang Li Xue sniffed sadly as she put on a miserable but cute expression and started to beg Instructor Mei Lan: "My gentle and kind Instructor Lan... Can you please..."
If Instructor Mei Lan was a male fox, she might have been moved by Tang Li Xue''s extremely charming appearance, but unfortunately, she was also a female fox, so she instantly interrupted Tang Li Xue''s words and mercilessly replied: "No way, I have already spent a lot of my credits to train Bingbing and Silly Fox before! I do not have any more savings to lend to you, so you will have to find a way to look for it by yourself."
Tang Li Xue was instantly deted by Instructor Mei Lan''s rejection.
"Oh, right... Where are you taking me right now, Instructor Lan?" Tang Li Xue asked again curiously.
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression instantly became solemn as she quickly exined: "One of the higher-ups wants to ask you about the Inheritance Ground Tablet missing case."
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply while murmuring in nervousness and panic: "So, I will be interrogated? Urgh, they will not use violence on me, right? No~! They will not use Soul Searching Technique on me, right?"
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and replied: "Don''t worry. She will not go that far. She only wants to confirm something about that incident from you."
Tang Li Xue asked with a curious tone: "Who will interrogate me? Did Instructor Lan know it?"
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression turned into admiration as she said: "The one who will meet you is one of the top leaders of Fox Race, so you better speak with her with more respect."
"Do not talk nonsense there~! You only need to answer what she asks. It would be better if you answered as detailed as possible. Never tell any lie or she would definitely find out in an instant! If you do not want to answer any of her questions, it would be better if you just stay silent instead. Do you understand?" Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue again.
Tang Li Xue felt very nervous all of a sudden after she heard that the interrogator was the top leader of Fox Race, and the interrogator would instantly know if she told any lies.
''Damn it~! Does that mean she also has the mind-reading ability like Meng Yue?'' Tang Li Xue thought flusteredly.
But she quickly calmed down again when she grasped the [Heaven Covering Ne] that she wore around her neck tightly.
Chapter 680 680: The Most Terrifying One!
Chapter 680 Chapter 680: The Most Terrifying One!
After Instructor Mei Lan led Tang Li Xue out of the Education Department Building, she suddenly halted her step at the front gate.
Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan in puzzlement: "What is wrong?"
Instructor Mei Lan red behind Tang Li Xue and shouted with a threatening tone: "Come out now~! Or do I need to pull you guys out by myself?!"
Tang Li Xue turned around. She immediately discovered Bingbing and Silly Fox who was hiding behind the nearby pir.
Tang Li Xue''s lips twitched as she said to them: "Nice try~! But at least try to hide your tails too next time..."
Bingbing and Silly Fox approached Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue with embarrassed expressions.
"Please forgive us, Instructor Lan, but we are really worried about Little Xue..." Silly Fox exined to Instructor Mei Lan.
Bingbing quickly nodded her head in agreement.
Tang Li Xue''s heart warmed when she heard Bingbing and Silly Fox''s words.
She was afraid that both Bingbing and Silly Fox would get involved and get punished more heavily because of her, so she quickly tried to reassure them: "You two do not need to worry about me. Instructor Lan only brought me to meet someone."
Bingbing pouted with teary eyes and replied: "Stop lying, Little Xue~! We already heard about it just now. Instructor Lan took you for interrogation about the previous incident, right?"
Tang Li Xue instantly fell silent and did not know how tofort them anymore.
Silly Fox bravely stood in front of Tang Li Xue and shouted at Instructor Mei Lan valiantly: "Instructor Lan, you can punish and bully me as you like, but you must step over my dead body if you want to bully or hurt Little Xue~!"
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes as she said: "Do you two even know what you are talking about?! How could you think that I have any intention to harm Little Xue?!"
Instructor Mei Lan sighed while staring at Bingbing and Silly Fox with a pair of eyes filled with sympathy: "I think the brains of you two must be already damaged! I will make sure to beat you two on the heads much harder to fix them from now on!"
Tang Li Xue slipped and almost fell down when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
''Instructor Lan, their head and brain are not the fence or building, so how could you fix them by hitting them harder?!'' Tang Li Xue silentlyined.
Instructor Mei Lan really smacked both Silly Fox and Bingbing''s heads harder in anger and kicked them back to the Education Department Building while telling them with a harsh tone: "Go back to the training room right now! You two mustplete 5,000 times of training sets or you will not be allowed toe back home today!"
Silly Fox and Bingbing put on wronged expressions, but they still reluctantly stared at Tang Li Xue. It could be seen that they were genuinely worried about Tang Li Xue''s safety.
Tang Li Xue giggled at them and whispered with telepathy to the two of them: "Don''t worry~! Instructor Lan will certainly not allow anyone to hurt me. I am her favorite student after all~!"
After she watched Bingbing and Silly Fox enter the Education Department Building again, Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief.
Tang Li Xue was quite afraid and worried that both Bingbing and Silly Fox would persistently try to stand up for her. It would be really bad if they made Instructor Mei Lan more pissed off.
"Instructor Lan, can you be gentler with them? They did that because they were worried about me after all..." Tang Li Xue said to Instructor Mei Lan as she felt sorry for her two friends.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently and replied with a soft tone: "Oh? Are you really sure you want me to be ''gentler'' with them?"
Tang Li Xue suddenly shuddered in fright as she shook her head repeatedly in reflex.
Tang Li Xue stopped talking and obediently followed Instructor Mei Lan closely from behind.
Tang Li Xue thought that Instructor Mei Lan would take her somewhere like an office, a dungeon, or something like that.
But who would have thought that Instructor Mei Lan would actually take her to the library?!
Tang Li Xue nced at Instructor Mei Lan with a puzzled expression, but Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to exin anything to her.
"I can only bring you this far. You can only enter by yourself. Remember~! Never talk nonsense, never tell any lie, just answer what she asks in detail~!" Instructor Mei Lan reminded Tang Li Xue with a stern tone.
Tang Li Xue nodded with a solemn expression, and then she decided to put Little Loki and Yaya into her System''s pet space before she stepped into the library.
Little Loki and Yaya also expressed their worry to Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue reassured them by promising to immediately call them out if she met with any dangerter.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm herself down before she pushed the double front doors of the library.
After Tang Li Xue entered the library, the double front doors automatically closed again.
The interior of the library was much more spectacr than Tang Li Xue''s expectation.
The space inside the library was extremely vastpared to its humble appearance from the outside.
There were so many tall bookshelves containing hundreds of books on each of them.
Tang Li Xue estimated that there might be millions or even billions of books stored in this library.
Tang Li Xue slowly explored deeper into the vast library in awe.
After some time, Tang Li Xue finally reached the center of the vast library and saw a sexy beautiful foxdy in a ck formal Qipao dress sitting on the sofa while reading a book.
Her posture and every gesture were noble and elegant like from an aristocratic family.
She has long straight gray hair tied in a ponytail. Even her fox ears and tails were gray colored.
"Cough, Uh... Hello~! Excuse me..." Tang Li Xue awkwardly tried to greet the ponytailed elegant foxdy.
The ponytailed elegant foxdy leisurely raised her head to take a nce at Tang Li Xue.
BWOOOOSH~!
At that very moment, Tang Li Xue''s body instantly stiffened in horror as she suddenly felt like she was being peeked by someone from head to toe.
It was an extremely ufortable feeling as if she was strippedpletely naked!
She did not even feel this bad when she was facing Meng Yue''s mind-reading ability!
Fortunately, there was still [Heaven Covering Ne] she wore around her neck which prevented anyone from seeing through all of her secrets.
Cold sweat wetting Tang Li Xue''s back and forehead as she nervously gulped down her saliva.
There was no doubt that the investigation abilities of this elegant foxdy were definitely many times more powerful than Meng Yue''s mind-reading ability!
When Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes met with the elegant foxdy''s obsidian ck eyes, Tang Li Xue instantly felt as if her soul and consciousness almost got sucked by the elegant foxdy''s obsidian ck eyes.
For the first time, the tiny [Soul ying Sword] which rested at the center of Tang Li Xue''s sea of consciousness reacted.
As the tiny [Soul ying Sword] trembled slightly to shake off the influence of the elegant foxdy''s stare, Tang Li Xue immediately woke up from her daze.
Tang Li Xue did not even dare to look at the elegant foxdy anymore.
''Horrible'' or ''frightening'' words could not even be used to describe Tang Li Xue''s feelings for the spooky elegant foxdy in front of her.
That elegant foxdy only sat there quietly without doing anything, but Tang Li Xue could already feel her horror several times.
No... To be more exact, Tang Li Xue could not even feel anything from the elegant foxdy right now.
If she closed her topaz blue eyes, she could not even sense any presence of the elegant foxdy who was sitting right in front of her at all.
But that only made the elegant foxdy much more frightening than anyone Tang Li Xue had ever met until now!
The elegant foxdy suddenly chuckled as she closed the book in her hands and said: "Interesting... You are truly a fascinating little one."
Tang Li Xue lowered her head more humbly. She tried to say something to greet the elegant foxdy, but there was no wording out of her mouth.
Tang Li Xue immediately closed her mouth when she recalled Instructor Mei Lan''s warning...
Never talk nonsense, never tell any lie, just answer what she asks in detail...
"There is no need to be so tense. I only called you here just to have a little chat to make sure about something." The elegant foxdy said as she took out a teacup, put it on the table, and poured the tea in the teapot onto the teacup.
"You can sit down and be more rxed." The elegant foxdy muttered to Tang Li Xue again.
Tang Li Xue nodded as she felt a lot more rxed. She sat on the seat across from the elegant foxdy without any hesitation, but she did not dare to touch the tea.
Then she suddenly realized something was strange.
Only then did she realize that she was once again affected by the elegant foxdy''s other ability.
It should be a simr ability to her [Mystic Whisper], but more powerful and well-hidden. It could even control her mood and feelings!
The elegant foxdy still showed an amicable smile as she muttered to Tang Li Xue: "You can just talk casually to me. Just consider me as one of your close friends. You can call me... Bookkeeper."
Chapter 681 681: Story Book!
Chapter 681 Chapter 681: Story Book!
After Tang Li Xue heard the elegant foxdy''s words, she suddenly felt really close to the elegant foxdy as if she was facing Bingbing and Hei Yinghao.
The horror in Tang Li Xue''s heart was growing even stronger.
Tang Li Xue had already ovee many dangers and obstacles with Bingbing and Hei Yinghao in the previous battles and missions.
But in just a few words, the elegant foxdy actually managed to bring their rtionship to close friends even though this was only their first meeting!
The most frightening thing was that her method waspletely unavoidable and unpreventable, even with [Heaven Covering Ne], [Huang Family Heirloom Ring], and [Soul ying Sword] which protected Tang Li Xue''s spirit and sea of consciousness.
Tang Li Xue suddenly understood why Fox n was not among the top 3 strongest beast races.
With these kinds of frightening abilities, the elegant foxdy might even be able to control other beasts or people without them realizing it.
Why would she even need to fight against the others if she could just sit leisurely here and secretly control the others from behind the scenes?!
The elegant foxdy chuckled at Tang Li Xue as she suddenly said: "I feel ttered by your opinion about me, but unfortunately, I am not as scary as you think."
Tang Li Xue''s expression instantly changed into panic at that very moment.
''Damn it~! Why can she still read my mind? This [Heaven Covering Ne] is not working at all! What a counterfeit product~!'' Tang Li Xueined while gnashing her pearl-white teeth.
Tang Li Xue''s body stiffened again in fear as she bit her tongue to keep herself awake, so she could remain vignt to the elegant foxdy.
But no matter what she did, Tang Li Xue still could not get rid of the horrifying effect of the elegant foxdy''s previous words since she still felt very close to the elegant foxdy.
Tang Li Xue immediately tried to empty her mind and not think about anything like she was facing Meng Yue before.
The elegant foxdy smiled in amusement as she continued to speak: "You must be wondering why I can still read your mind even though you already have already tried to block it with your treasures or abilities."
"The answer is simple. Because reading anyone''s mind is not difficult. There are many ways to do it without using any treasures or abilities. As long as we can read the other people''s body gestures, expressions, and eyes, we can easily read what was on the other creatures'' minds."
"Such as you right now... You just showed a slightly disappointed and angry look, so you should be thinking about why your treasures or abilities could not block me from reading your mind. Then you should also think about scolding andining about it to the one who gave you those treasures or abilitiester, right?"
The elegant foxdy generously exined to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue suddenly felt very amazed by the elegant foxdy''s skill.
She could not help herself, but reflexively wanted to ask: "Then how to prevent it?"
Tang Li Xue instantly felt regret asking it since she just vited Instructor Mei Lan''s warning to not talk nonsense.
The elegant foxdy did not mind it at all. She shook her head and replied: "It cannot be prevented. Even if you wear a mask to cover your face and a thick coat to cover your body, but your eyes still show what is on your mind."
"The only way to counter it is to control what you are thinking. You should try to learn about that sooner if you do not want your opponent to read your mind in battle." The elegant foxdy advised Tang Li Xue with an amicable smile on her charming face.
"I... I will try... Thank you very much for the advice..." Tang Li Xue nodded nervously and thanked the elegant foxdy.
"You do not need to be so afraid or wary of me. I do not call you here to find out about your information or your secrets. I just want to make sure something about Inheritance Ground Tablet." The elegant foxdy stated as she waved her right hand elegantly.
One of the books instantly flew out from the bookshelves andnded on the elegant foxdy''s palm.
The elegant foxdy opened the book and put it on the table in front of Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue stared curiously at the book and found out that it was actually apletely nk book.
Tang Li Xue nced at the elegant foxdy with confusion.
The elegant foxdy chuckled and exined to Tang Li Xue patiently: "This thing is called Story Book. You will know its function when you narrate your story while touching a nk page in that book. Let''s start from the very beginning after you left this Myriad Foxes Academy and headed to Inheritance Ground Tablet "
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she touched the nk page in the book and began to tell what she did after leaving the Myriad Foxes Academy.
At that moment, their surrounding suddenly changed into a dense forest, and Tang Li Xue saw another her riding on the snowy white [Wind Riding Bird]!
Even the gentle wind blowing and the smell of the grass were extremely real!
Tang Li Xue grasped in shock as she took away her hand from the Story Book in reflex.
Then their surroundings changed back to the extremely vast library again.
"Don''t be afraid~! That is the function of the Story Book. It canpletely re-enact the scene of your journey to the Inheritance Ground Tablet until youe back to Myriad Foxes Academy." The elegant foxdy stated to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue felt a bit relieved after the elegant foxdy rified the effect of the Story Book, but Tang Li Xue also felt worried because Little Loki actually used its [Heaven''s Devour] many times in the Inheritance Ground Tablet!
But there was nothing Tang Li Xue could do about it since the Story Book would only re-enact the actual event that she had already experienced!
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only touch the nk page of the Story Book and continue to tell her story about her journey to Inheritance Ground Tablet.
Meeting with a few pervert scoundrels on her way... then she beat all of them until their own parents could no longer recognize them...
She had a dispute with three righteous sects because she stole their jade keys until she was forced to run and became the first one to enter the Inheritance Ground Tablet...
She won against many skeletons and obtained the Evil Ghost Emperor''s Inheritance...
She passed several dangerous trials at the Crystal Pce Tomb and obtained the Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Inheritance...
Then she entered Creepy Herb Garden only to meet with Oracle Mountain'' Sect''s Disciples and fought together with them to defeat the carnivorous tree...
Got trapped in the horrifying swamp and almost lost her life because of it...
used of bullying flower fairies, but thankfully, those fairies'' mother was very kind, and Tang Li Xue managed to survive by giving them a lot of candies as a bribe...
Almost lost her life because of White Feathered Giant Owl, but thankfully her bribe to those flower fairies worked wonderfully, and she managed to survive because of the item given by them...
Tang Li Xue secretly took a nce at the elegant foxdy, when Little Loki showed its [Heaven''s Devour] to face White Feathered Giant Owl.
Then Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after making sure that the elegant foxdy did not react at all when she saw Little Loki using [Heaven''s Devour].
Even though it was still unclear if the elegant foxdy really did not know anything about it or if she had already known Little Loki''s true race but pretended not to know for now.
At least the elegant foxdy was not hostile to her yet right now.
Tang Li Xue continued to tell her story...
Climbed the towering world tree, then tried to steal honey and royal jelly from the nest of Sapphire Armored Wasps...
Almost lost her life again because of it, but luckily, Phoenix of Pride woke up at the right time and helped her solve the Sapphire Wasp Queen...
Before she could continue her journey to loot... err, I mean to explore the Inheritance Ground Tablet again, her time was up, and she got kicked out of that ce...
Bumped with the people from the Asura Demon Sect and epic rescue to save Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu from their evil''s grasp...
Fateful meeting with a bullied cute little girl named Seventh Princess...
There was nothing important here, so Tang Li Xue wanted to just speed up her story, but she did not notice that the expression of the Bookkeeper had be extremely solemn when she saw the Seventh Princess.
"Can you be more specific and detailed on this part?" The elegant foxdy interrupted Tang Li Xue and said with a more solemn expression.
Chapter 682 682: Got Completely Exposed!
Chapter 682 Chapter 682: Got Completely Exposed!
Tang Li Xue was dumbfounded by the elegant foxdy''s sudden request, but she did not dare to question it.
Tang Li Xue followed the elegant foxdy''s request, she told the part of the story about the Seventh Princess with more specific and detail while secretly observing the elegant foxdy''s expression.
The scene in front of them showed how Tang Li Xue gantly saved the cute Seventh Princess from the thugs...
Then she brought Little Seventh to eat at the restaurant only to get attacked by so many assassins...
But because there were too many assassins chasing after her, Tang Li Xue had no choice other than to split up with Little Seventh and use herself as a decoy to attract all of those assassins...
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue got trapped in the powerful formationter, and she even almost got caught by those assassins if not for the three teachers who came on time to help her and finished off all of those assassins in an instant...
After that, she managed toe back safely to Myriad Foxes Academy under the escort of the three teachers....
Tang Li Xue concluded her story, but she was a bit disappointed since she could not see any reaction from the elegant foxdy''s expression.
Tang Li Xue was very curious about the elegant foxdy''s previous request, so she decided to be brave once more and asked: "Excuse me, Miss Bookkeeper... Did something happen to Little Seventh?"
"After I returned to Myriad Foxes Academy with my three teachers, I tried to ask if Little Seventh got back to her home safely to my [Wind Riding Bird], but its reaction was strange as if it did not understand what was I talking about. It was like it had never seen or even known Little Seventh at all." Tang Li Xue exined to the elegant foxdy in puzzlement.
The elegant foxdy did not immediately answer Tang Li Xue''s question.
She stared at Tang Li Xue for a few moments with an amused smile on her charming face as if she was trying to gauge something from Tang Li Xue.
Then she shook her head and replied: "You do not need to worry. Your Little Seventh is still alive right now. I guarantee that she is also safe, healthy, and lives very happily at this moment."
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she heard the elegant foxdy''s reassuring words.
Tang Li Xue was always very worried that Little Seventh had already been caught by those assassins, and she might get tortured by those assassins to extract any information about Tang Li Xue from her.
"Thankfully Little Seventh also managed to survive the pursuit of those assassins..." Tang Li Xue muttered at ease.
The elegant foxdy giggled when she heard Tang Li Xue''s words and asked: "I really don''t know anymore if you are lucky or unlucky, but it no longer matters right now... Is there anything else you want to ask?"
Tang Li Xue was puzzled by the elegant foxdy''sment, but she quickly shook her head as she did not have any more questions to ask.
Tang Li Xue stood up from her seat as she gave back the Story Book to the elegant foxdy.
Just when Tang Li Xue bowed politely at the elegant foxdy and turned around, the elegant foxdy suddenly called her again: "Wait a minute..."
The elegant foxdy waved her right hand and another book flew from the bookshelves onto her hand, then she tore two pages from that book.
But the two pages in that book regenerated back to usual in the blink of an eye.
The elegant foxdy let go of the book from her grasp, and it flew by itself back to the bookshelves.
The elegant foxdy folded up those two pages and shoved them onto?Tang Li Xue''s hand: "You can open these two pieces of paper after you go back home."
Tang Li Xue nced at the two pieces of paper on her palm and stared at the elegant foxdy in confusion.
The elegant foxdy chuckled and said again to Tang Li Xue: "Take it, Little One~! Just think of them as my reward for taking your time to tell me such an interesting story."
Tang Li Xue secretly pouted her mouth in disappointment.
''At least reward me with something I urgently need like credit...'' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind.
The elegant foxdy giggled in amusement as she asked: "Are you sure you want to exchange them with credit?"
Tang Li Xue''s body stiffened again in horror.
"Ah, no~! Thank you very much Miss Bookkeeper for your reward~! Goodbye~!" Tang Li Xue replied as she hastily ran away from the elegant foxdy.
"Wait..." The elegant foxdy stopped Tang Li Xue for the second time.
Tang Li Xue''s back and forehead were soaked with cold sweat. She gritted her teeth as she turned around and bowed her head to apologize: "I am very sorry, Miss Bookkeeper~! I really do not mean to offend..."
The elegant foxdy immediately interrupted and said while pointing her slender finger in another direction: "You are going in the wrong way. The exit is that way."
"Eh? Ohh... right... I am sorry..." Tang Li Xue blushed in embarrassment, and her charming face turnedpletely red like a prawn.
Tang Li Xue did not even dare to look at the elegant foxdy as she quickly ran in the direction that the elegant foxdy pointed to.
After Tang Li Xue''s figure disappeared from there, the elegant foxdy could no longer hold on andughed while saying: "What an interesting little one~!"
The elegant foxdy thought for a while as a thick suspicion flickered in her eyes.
She waved her hand and called another book from the bookshelves into her grasp.
When she opened the book in her grasp, the scene inside the picture in the book was moving extremely fast as if she was watching a movie on TV at a fast-forward pace.
If Tang Li Xue saw the scene in this book, she might be extremely surprised since the scene in the book was actually her journey in the Fox Hunting Festival from start to finish.
The elegant foxdy sighed in relief as she closed the book again.
The elegant foxdy smiled brightly while muttering with an amused tone: "A newborn Taotie cub who is as close as life and deathpanions with a mere fox cub... This is truly fascinating~! I really wonder if this is a blessing or curse for my Fox n~?"
"If that fox cub can really tame Taotie cub, then there is no doubt that my Fox n''s future will be very bright. We may even have a chance to contend as the true overlord of this Immortal World in the future." The elegant foxdy excitedly added.
But she quickly calmed down again after a few moments.
Four Evil Fiend Beasts were the absolute taboo in any realm and world.
They were the true harbingers of disaster and destruction.
The risk of taming and raising Taotie cub was too high for their Fox Race to bear.
Even if that fox cub really managed to tame and raise the Taotie cubter in the future, it still could not be shown in front of the others or their Fox n would need to face the prosecution of the entire world.
The elegant foxdy pondered carefully for a while and murmured softly: "Should I tell this to ''Chessmaster''?"
However, the elegant foxdy quickly shook her head to deny the idea.
The elegant foxdy, as the ''Bookkeeper'' of the Fox n, always believed that every creature has their own fate, and she prefers to let nature take its own course.
But the ''Chessmaster'' of the Fox n always wanted to let everything under its control.
There was no doubt that the ''Chessmaster'' would never let an unstable factor with extremely high risk like a newborn Taotie cub stay in their Fox n.
The elegant foxdy dares to bet that the ''Chessmaster'' would definitely make a swift move to kill both the newborn Taotie cub and that fox cub to eliminate all threats to Fox n.
The elegant foxdy let the book about Tang Li Xue''s participation in the Foxes Hunting Festival fly back into the bookshelves.
But she waved her hand and sealed the book about Tang Li Xue''s story in Inheritance Ground Tablet with a tight chain.
The Story Book flew swiftly from the elegant foxdy''s hand toward the deepest part of the library.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
One of the bookshelves moved and the sealed Story Book entered the secret basement under it.
The sealed Story Book flew into the dark room beneath the secret basement and hovered along with the other hundreds of sealed books stored inside there.
The dark room was ced inside manyyers of highly advanced formation, and even the elegant foxdy herself could not break into it in a short time.
Of course, if she wanted to see any sealed books, she could just call them out from that ce easily since she was the one and only ''Bookkeeper'' of the Fox n.
The bookshelf was moved again to its previous location and the secret basement was blocked once more like before.
After putting away that sealed Story Book in the safest ce, the elegant foxdy shook her head while chuckling in irony as she said: "But the luck of that fox cub is really strange."
"Her luck should be extremely bad since she met with Taotie Cub and Seventh Princess of the Undead Race..."
"But if her luck is extremely bad, then how could she have Taotie Cub as herpanion pet, and befriended with the Seventh Princess of the Undead Race?!"
Everything that happened to Tang Li Xue was so contradictory that the elegant foxdy could no longer judge it anymore.
The elegant foxdy rubbed her forehead in confusion.
That was the reason why she told Tang Li Xue: ''I really don''t know anymore if you are lucky or unlucky.''
Honestly, if Tang Li Xue did not help the Seventh Princess at that time, the elegant foxdy could clearly guess that the Seventh Princess would surely kill everyone there including Tang Li Xue herself.
But because Tang Li Xue helped the Seventh Princess and managed to attract the Seventh Princess''s interest, Tang Li Xue''s life was finally spared.
At first, the elegant foxdy nned to tell the Seventh Princess''s true identity to Tang Li Xue, but she decided to give up that intention in the end.
There was no guarantee that Tang Li Xue would not meet the Seventh Princess again in the future.
At least, if Tang Li Xue acted friendly to the Seventh Princess at that time because she still did not know the Seventh Princess''s true identity, she might still have a chance to be spared again by the Seventh Princess.
Chapter 683 683: Contradictory Evaluation!
Chapter 683 Chapter 683: Contradictory Evaluation!
The elegant foxdy bit her pink lips while thinking deeply: "The sudden appearance of the Seventh Princess in this remote Lightwind Continent and the missing Inheritance Ground Tablet... It should not be a mere coincidence, right?"
The Undead Race waspletely differentpared to the Human Race and Beast Race.
The Undead Race was not born from mating, all of them were born from the breeding ground called ''Undead Hive''.
The governing system of the Undead Race adopted the dynasty system.
But because they did not have anything such as royal bloodline, descendants, and so on since all of them were born from the ''Undead Hive'', their rank was basedpletely on strength.
The strongest undead would be the Undead Emperor.
Under the Undead Emperor would be ten princes or princesses followed by ministers, and then generals.
From that information, anyone could already guess how powerful the Seventh Princess was.
Yes, it meant she was the seventh strongest undead under the Undead Emperor himself!
If the Seventh Princess really wanted to kill Tang Li Xue at that time, even if Tang Li Xue''s three teachers hade to help her on time back then, all of them would still get ughtered by the Seventh Princess in an instant!
Even if Meng Yue came there to try to save Tang Li Xue, she might onlyst for a few breaths at best before getting killed easily by the Seventh Princess!
What was even more frightening was that the Seventh Princess''s actual age was still under fifteen years old!
She was the youngest one among the entire princes and princesses in Undead Race!
Her strength was clearly still in the growth spurt phase!
Meng Yue might be Heaven''s Favored Child of the Fox Race, but she was not Heaven''s Favored Child who could represent the entire Beast Race. Because each beast race might already have their own Heaven''s Favored Child.
The Seventh Princess was different...
No one in the entire Undead Rade dared to doubt that the Seventh Princess was Heaven''s Favored Child who could represent the entire Undead Race!
How could such an important figure like here personally to this remote Lightwind Continent just to steal a mere Inheritance Ground Tablet?
It could easily be guessed that her mission should not be that simple...
Even the elegant foxdy as one of the top leaders of the Fox n was getting restless and worried because of it.
"I wonder what was she looking for in the Inheritance Ground Tablet? But no matter what it was, it should not be good news for both my Beast Race and Human Race." The elegant foxdy muttered with a solemn expression.
"It seems I must warn the others and make some preparations early just in case something bad really happenter..." The elegant foxdy decided as she stood up from her seat.
But she suddenly remembered something and took another book from the bookshelves with one wave of her hand.
"That little one has a lot of potential, but she still has a lot of shorings. Rather than letting herze around doing nothing after being eliminated from the Foxes Hunting Festival, it would be much better for her to do something meaningful to increase her life experience, so she could make up for her shorings quickly."?The elegant foxdy said as she opened the book in her grasp.
Surprisingly, there were densely packed upleted missions recorded in that book.
The elegant foxdy suddenly smiled in amusement as she looked at one of the upleted missions while muttering: "This mission is interesting~! Hehehehe..."
She took out a pen from her space pouch and wrote something on that book before closing the book and returning it again to the bookshelves.
Then her slender figure slowly faded away from there as if she was just an illusion...
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue had already walked out of the library through the double front doors.
After the double front doors automatically closed like before, she took a deep breath and sighed in relief as she wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.
"Damn it~! That foxdy is too scary~! Much scarier than Instructor Lan~!" Tang Li Xue muttered in frustration as she panted heavily.
After calming down her mood, Tang Li Xue realized something strange.
Different from when she came here, there were actually many other foxes passing by at this moment.
Tang Li Xue turned around and found out that the library''s front double doors had already opened again, and there were many other foxes going in and out of the library.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper as she tried to take a quick peek at the library with a strong curiosity.
"This is... impossible~!" Tang Li Xue muttered in awe mixed with fear.
Who knew that the current interior library hadpletely changed?!
The current interior of the library was much smaller and worn out than before, and there were so many foxes who were working and reading inside it.
It was like the previous library that Tang Li Xue entered was another library and had nothing to do with the current library at all!
Tang Li Xue decided to not care about it anymore as she turned around and ran as fast as she could toward the Residential Building.
After she entered back into her house inside the Residential Building''s room, Tang Li Xue released Yaya and Little Loki from her System''s pet space.
Both Little Loki and Yaya had already entered their battle stance as if they had prepared to fight to help Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xueughed at the two of them as her tense mood became more rxed at this moment.
Both Little Loki and Yaya puffed their cheek and pouted in anger because they felt Tang Li Xue was mocking them.
Tang Li Xue chuckled as she hugged both of them gently while muttering: "Yaya, Little Loki, thank you very much for worrying about me..."
Both Little Loki and Yaya suddenly felt awkward because of Tang Li Xue''s actions.
"I really want to treat both of you to eat delicious foods right now, but I do not even have enough credits to do it... I am really sorry, Yaya, Little Loki. Sigh... It seems I must work hard to create a lot of talismans today, so I can sell them early tomorrow." Tang Li Xue spoke to Yaya and Little Loki with a regretful tone.
Tang Li Xue really felt guilty for both Yaya and Little Loki.
Yaya did not even eat enough in the Foxes Hunting Festival until now.
Little Loki might be able to eat everything, but Tang Li Xue did not have anything to give Little Loki to eat right now.
She had consumed most of her Spirit Stones for her breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Stage while giving Sapphire Armored Wasp''s honey and royal jelly directly to Little Loki was very wasteful since they could be sold to obtain a lot more spirit stones or credits that could be used to feed Little Loki to make it fuller.
Just when Tang Li Xue wanted to take out her golden Inscription Pen and begin to make talismans to sell, she suddenly remembered that the previous Miss Bookkeeper had given her two folded pieces of paper and told her to open them after she went back home.
Tang Li Xue took out the two folded pieces of paper from her space pouch and opened them.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply after she read what was written on both of the folded pieces of paper.
"Qing Qiu''s Evaluation of Student Tang Li Xue: A fox cub with extremely high potential that is worth nurturing. Rmended to be given a direct invitation letter to join the Qing Qiu faction as soon as possible."
"Tu Shan''s Evaluation of Student Tang Li Xue: A mediocre fox cub without any stand-out advantages. Needs further observation to see if she is worth enough to receive further training and resources."
Twopletely contradictory evaluations from the Qing Qiu Faction and Tu Shan Faction...
Tang Li Xue did not really understand why Miss Bookkeeper gave her this information...
Tang Li Xuey downzily on her bed and thought carefully for a few minutes.
Then Tang Li Xue realized that Miss Bookkeeper should have already known about her Regalia from her story.
Miss Bookkeeper should have also detected her indecisive about which faction to join in the future, so Miss Bookkeeper gave this information to give her some hints.
Qing Qiu faction''s Evaluation of her was extremely good, so she could easily join without any difficulty.
Qing Qiu faction would certainly train and nurture her carefully, but she had to prepare topete fiercely with the other geniuses after that.
Meanwhile, Tu Shan Faction''s Evaluation of her was not that good.
But the advantage was that she could easily fade away from everyone''s view and stay low-key in Tu Shan Faction. She would grow slowly but safely in the Tu Shan Faction.
Joining the Qing Qiu Faction or Tu Shan Faction had its own advantages and disadvantages.
Chapter 684 684: Sudden Urgent Secret Mission!
Chapter 684 Chapter 684: Sudden Urgent Secret Mission!
Tang Li Xue sighed while saying: "That Miss Bookkepper is truly a scary one. But whatever faction I choose to join is not that important for now... I should just focus on doing my best to solve my current urgent problem."
Yes, what she needed to do right now was to make a lot of talismans and sell them early tomorrow to fill her empty wallet, so she could feed both Yaya and Little Loki until they were full tomorrow~!
Tang Li Xue took out her golden inscription pen from System''s item storage and many stacks of talisman paper from her space pouch.
Tang Li Xue started to focus on making various types of talismans in the study room without sleeping at all tonight.
Other than the newly self-invented [Talisman of Lesser Recovery], Tang Li Xue also made the usual buff-type talismans that she always used to increase her stats such as [Talisman of Giant Strength], [Talisman of Lightning Speed], and [Talisman of Iron Skin].
But when she tried to use those buff-type talismans on herself, those buff-type talismans seemed to lose their effect.
"Damn, I knew this would happen~! After all of my stats reached their maximum limit, these elementary-level buff-type talismans would no longer work on me anymore." Tang Li Xueined in frustration.
"Looks like I have to learn more advanced buff-type talismans from Teacher Li Wei as soon as possible. I will try to ask Teacher Li Wei to teach me tomorrow~!" Tang Li Xue decided as she continued to make the other types of talismans.
[Talisman of Regeneration] was still useful to heal normal injuries, so Tang Li Xue made and stocked a lot of them.
There were also misceneous talismans such as [Hidden Exploding Talisman], [Stealth Talisman], and [Stealth Illusion Talisman]. They might be useful in some unexpected situations, so Tang Li Xue decided to stock all of them although not much.
"If only my [Twin Moon]''s divine ability is not in cooldown period, and I can summon out my perfect copy, the number of talismans I make today would be doubled... What a pity~!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a regretful tone.
Without realizing it, the dark sky outside the house had already turned bright as the sun had risen.
The weather and state of the sky in the space inside this Residential Building''s room were usually the same as outside, so it was also already morning outside.
Tang Li Xue raised both of her hands as she stretched her stiff slender body.
She stared at so many stacks of talismans on the table in satisfaction before she entered the bedroom to wake up the sleeping Yaya and Little Loki.
After taking a quick bath with both Yaya and Little Loki, Tang Li Xue brought them out of the room with her.
Since she had not seen Bingbing and Silly Fox yet, Tang Li Xue knocked on the door of their room lightly to wake them up.
Tang Li Xue became a little impatient after both Bingbing and Silly Fox did not give any response for more than ten minutes, but she immediately realized that both Bingbing and Silly Fox might note back to their room since yesterday because they got punished quite heavily by Instructor Mei Lan''s yesterday.
Tang Li Xue shuddered in fear and secretly prayed: "I feel sorry for Bingbing and Silly Fox, but I still do not want to get punished along with them. I hope Instructor Mei Lan will be more reasonable and will not punish me today..."
Tang Li Xue hastily headed out from the Residential Building and dashed toward the Education Department Building.
But her topaz blue eyes were attracted to the huge holographic screen on the top of the tall building at the center of the city that broadcasting the battle in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
It actually showed the battle between the red-haired sexy girl and the ck-haired heroic girl.
Both of them were actually from the Qing Qiu Faction, Tang Li Xue also did not know why they were fighting so fiercely against each other.
But Tang Li Xue knew both of them...
The ck-haired heroic girl was the Apex Predator-level fox who previouslypressed the entire floating ind into a small ball and took it with her in one move.
Tang Li Xue had never seen the red-haired sexy girl before, but she was extremely familiar with her ability... Well, how could she forget the horrifying [Crimson Skies Domain] that almost made her get eliminated earlier from the Foxes Hunting Festival?!
It could be said that Tang Li Xue still held a grudge against both of them, so she was really happy when she saw both of them fighting against each other right now.
Unfortunately, the red-haired sexy fox girl''s ability was not good at the head-on battle, so it was not a surprise that she was only getting beaten up one-sidedly by the ck-haired heroic girl from the beginning of their battle.
"But the divine abilities of that ck-haired fox girl are surely strange and unpredictable..." Tang Li Xue muttered with a solemn tone while frowning deeply.
"You better not mess or associate with that ck-haired fox girl too much in the future..." A masculine voice suddenly warned from behind Tang Li Xue.
When Tang Li Xue turned around, she actually saw a familiar person... or rather a familiar male fox and politely greeted: "Eh? Good morning, Teacher Li Wei~!"
Teacher Li Wei nodded back at Tang Li Xue with a soft smile on his extremely handsome face.
Tang Li Xue could not hold back her curiosity and asked: "Teacher Li Wei, why do you warn me not to mess with that ck-haired fox girl? Do you know who that girl is?"
Teacher Li Wei shook his head and exined vaguely: "She is a dangerous existence... The result of Qing Qiu''s faction mad experiment. They tried to use the current Foxes Hunting Festival to promote it."
"The result of Qing Qiu''s faction mad experiment? What kind of experiment?" Tang Li Xue asked again as her curiosity grew stronger.
Teacher Li Wei chucked as he muttered with a leisurely tone: "Are you sure you still want to chat with me? I heard you camete to your ss yesterday. What would happen if youete too today?"
Tang Li Xue''s expression instantly turned pale after she heard Teacher Li Wei''s words.
"Goodbye, Teacher Li Wei~! I will meet you again after my ss is over today~!" Tang Li Xue hastily said to Teacher Li Wei as she activated her [Wings of Freedom] buff, and then she flew toward the Education Department Building at breakneck speed.
After Tang Li Xue disappeared from there, the soft smile on Teacher Li Wei''s handsome faded away, and his expression instantly turned gloomy.
"To think they were still continuing that experiment even after I stepped down and moved away to Tu Shan Faction... Those mad foxes from Qing Qiu Faction were truly too insane..." Teacher Li Wei sighed as he walked away from there, but his back looked fragile and lonely.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue had reached the Education Department Building with Yaya and Little Loki who were sitting on her shoulders.
When she entered the ssroom, both Bingbing and Silly Fox were already there, but their condition was clearly far from good.
Both Bingbing and Silly Fox were too exhausted afterpleting the 5,000 sets of harsh training given by Instructor Mei Lan, so they actually fell asleep in the ssroom at this time.
Tang Li Xue hastily tried to wake them up before Instructor Mei Lan entered the ssroom: "Hey, hey, hey~! Do you two want to get punished again today?! Quickly get up now before Instructor Lanes~!"
"Really? Unfortunately, I am already here~!" Instructor Mei Lan said with a yful smile when she entered the ssroom.
"It is over..." Tang Li Xue eximed in hopelessness.
BANG~! BANG~!
Both the sleeping Bingbing and Hei Yinghao got struck heavily by the high-vibration chalk thrown by Instructor Mei Lan.
They could not even shout as the pain they felt was too intense right now.
"We do not have time today since there is a sudden urgent secret mission we have to do as soon as possible, so I will just deduce your credits as punishment!" Instructor Mei Lan mercilessly told them.
"NOOOO~! Instructor Lan, please just punish heavily us like yesterday~! Don''t take our precious credits, pleaseeeeeee~!" Silly Fox shouted to beg at Instructor Mei Lan.
Even Bingbing, who always contradicted whatever Silly Fox did, also nodded her head with teary eyes.
Tang Li Xue was more interested in the sudden urgent secret mission that Instructor Mei Lan said just now since she was not punished like Bingbing and Silly Fox.
If she also got punished with credit deductions like them, she would surely cry even more miserably than them since she did not even have any more pennies to buy anything right now.
Then Instructor Mei Lan red at her with a pair of eyes filled with resentment and anger.
Tang Li Xue: ''?!''
Tang Li Xue could only shrug innocently with a wronged expression since she did not even get why Instructor Mei Lan was staring at her like that.
Chapter 685 685: S-grade Mission!
Chapter 685 Chapter 685: S-grade Mission!
"I will not talk too much since we have alreadypleted two missions together before. Our rules will remain the same at that time. Never take any risky action without my permission, always stay vignt in any situation, and follow my everymand ~!" Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox with a solemn tone.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox quickly nodded with serious expressions to show that they understood.
"I know all of you have grown far stronger than before, but you should not be overconfident. Moreover, unlike the previous mission which is only a B-grade mission, our current mission is an S-grade mission, so it would be far more difficult than before!" Instructor Mei Lan warned as she took out a bamboo tube and gave it to her three students.
Silly Fox took the bamboo tube first and tapped it on his forehead.
After the information about the current S-grade mission entered his mind, his expression became strange, then he passed the bamboo tube to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue took the bamboo tube from Silly Fox and tapped it on her forehead.
When the information about the S-grade mission rushed into her mind in an instant, Tang Li Xue''s expression became even stranger than Silly Fox''s.
Just like the previous B-grade mission, this S-grade mission could not be said to be dangerous for them, but it was extremely troublesome toplete!
Just like Human Race, Sea Beast Race who lived under the ocean was also divided into many kingdoms, dynasties, and empires.
One of the royal princesses of the Sea Beast Race Kingdom near the Lightwind Continent had actually been missing for more than a month, so they asked their Fox n''s help to find the missing royal princess and bring her back.
With the might of their Fox n''s intelligence and investigation department, they managed to find the trace of the missing royal princess in only a few days.
But a difficult problem arose when they tried to bring the missing royal princess of the Sea Beast Race Kingdom back...
That royal princess had actually fallen deeply in love with a human, so she was unwilling to be sent back to her kingdom!
Their Fox n felt helpless at the stubborn royal princess, so they could only send this news back to the Sea Beast Race Kingdom, but the king of that Sea Beast Race Kingdom became enraged because of it.
He immediately asked their Fox n to forcefully drag the royal princess back!
Their Fox n did just like the king of that Sea Beast Race Kingdom had requested, and they forcefully kidnapped the royal princess, then sent her back to the Sea Beast Race Kingdom overnight.
Who knew that the stubborn royal princess could still escape after she was locked up in her own room for a few days?!
Then she went back to the surface and went back to live with that human again...
Even the king of Sea Beast Race Kingdom was helpless since that stubborn royal princess was his most beloved daughter, so he could not bear to chain, imprison, or seal her too harshly.
The king of Sea Beast Race Kingdom could actually ask their Fox n to just kill that male human who seduced his daughter, but it would make his daughter hate him very much.
This time, the king of Sea Beast Race Kingdom who hadpletely run out of ideas could only ask their smart Fox n to think and do something about it...
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched after she digested the information about the current S-grade mission as sheined in her heart: ''What troublesome mission is this?! Don''t tell me the name of that sea beast princess is Ariel~!''
Bingbing asked Instructor Mei Lan with a helpless tone: "Instructor Mei Lan, this S-grade mission is too vague, right? What does it mean by asking us to think and do something about it?!"
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes as she also felt very helpless about it.
She also really wanted to refuse this extremely troublesome S-grade mission so badly!
Unfortunately, she could not refuse this S-grade mission at all since this urgent secret mission was assigned directly to her and her three students by one of the Fox n''s top leaders, Miss Bookkeeper herself.
Instructor Mei Lan guessed that Tang Li Xue might have done something impolite and offended Miss Bookkeeper yesterday, so Miss Bookkeeper assigned this S-grade mission to them as punishment.
However, it was already toote to regret it right now, and there was no point ming Tang Li Xue too much for it.
Rather than doing meaningless things like that which would only decrease their morale even more, it would be better for them to think of a way toplete this S-grade mission instead.
"All right, stopining~! All of you can go back home and prepare what you need. We will meet in front of Space Gate Hall one hour from now~!" Instructor Mei Lan shouted to them.
All of them went back home and began to prepare what they needed.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s expression became even more gloomy since she did not even have enough time to sell her talismans.
She was so penniless right now that she could not even buy any Spirit Dew Cucumber to feed her Wind Riding Bird!
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth as she rummaged through her space pouch to find something valuable enough to be pawned immediately.
Of course, she nned to redeem the pawned items after she returned from this mission and sold her talismanster.
There were quite a few precious items she got from the Inheritance Ground Tablet before.
She took all of them out and lined them up right in front of her.
She looked at the items one by one and pondered carefully for a few moments.
Royal Jelly and Honey she got from Sapphire Armored Wasps...
"Nope~! No way, these things are too precious~! Who knows if they got stolenter after I pawned themter~! So, I will never pawn them~!" Tang Li Xue decisively rejected the idea to pawn them.
The broken [Frost Swan Sword]...
"Well, forget it~! No one would probably ept this junk unless I fix itter..." Tang Li Xue said as she threw the broken [Frost Swan Sword] aside.
Burnt-out old ancient scroll and a thick book which might be the divine rank martial art manual from Divine World...
"Err, this thing might be extremely precious to me and the Human Race, but they are probably useless for the Beast Race..." Tang Li Xue put them aside too, since no one would ept them if she tried to pawn them in this Myriad Foxes Academy.
[Qi Storing Bracelet]...
"Damn it~! Another item which might be very useful for me and the Human Race, but useless to the Beast Race." Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in frustration as she threw the [Qi Storing Bracelet] aside.
[Qi Storing Bracelet] could replenish the exhausted Qi in an instant.
It might be able to turn around the tide of the battle if it was used in a critical moment.
But instantly restoring Qi waspletely useless for Beast Race since they were using Vitality Energy instead!
[Blood Sealing Chain]...
Tang Li Xue was in dilemma when she saw this [Blood Sealing Chain] again after such a long time.
This [Blood Sealing Chain] was clearly an extremely useful sealing treasure, and she could use it to bind both humans and beasts.
But in the end, Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth as she decided to pawn this [Blood Sealing Chain].
She would redeem it back once she returned from the mission and sell her talismans anyway.
Several books about [Death Revtion Sutra], [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], [Essence Devouring Technique], [The Art of Concealment], and [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual]...
All of them were only useful for the Human Race, except for [The Art of Concealment], which was given by Instructor Mei Lan for her, and it could also be learned by the Beast Race.
[Seven-Colored Blossom Flower]...
"This thing is given by the queen of flower fairies in the Inheritance Ground Tablet. But except for using it as a passport to enter the next area, I still do not know its other use until now." Tang Li Xue muttered as she tried to use her basic [All Knowing Eyes] on the [Seven-Colored Blossom Flower].
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Seven-Colored Star Flower]
[Description: An extremely precious flower that contains a terrifying amount of star power. Every 10,000 years it will add one shiny color to its petals, so this flower takes 70,000 years to mature and reach seven rainbow colors.]
[Effect: Increase Strength, Toughness, Agility, and Spirit by a lot. By consuming it, you will awaken one extremely powerful star-type divine ability and upgrade the other star-type divine abilities by one level.]
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue suddenly jumped in shock and disbelief while shouting out loud crazily: "Wha¡ WHAT THE HELL~?! This is actually [Seven-Colored Star Flower]~?! Really~?! I... I am not dreaming now, right?!"
Chapter 686 686: [Scepter of Disaster] Or...
Chapter 686 Chapter 686: [Scepter of Disaster] Or...
To be honest, Tang Li Xue really wanted to eat this [Seven-Colored Star Flower] so badly right here and now.
But she resisted the urge while feeling very lucky that she only read the effect of this [Seven-Colored Star Flower] with her Basic [All Knowing Eyes] only at this moment.
If she had known the effect of this [Seven-Colored Star Flower] before, she would certainly have consumed it on the spot at that time.
If that happened, she would have coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood in regret since she needed to look for another [Seven-Colored Star Flower] for her evolution right now!
Finding another [Seven-Colored Star Flower] which would only mature once every 70,000 years would surely be countless times harder than finding a needle in a haystack!
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief while saying in amazement: "That was a close one~! But the effect of this [Seven-Colored Star Flower] is surely amazing."
Tang Li Xue had already consumed several precious resources in the Foxes Hunting Festival such as 300 Years Immortal Herb, Golden Emperor Bean, Spirit Essense Flower, and so on.
But those precious resources could only awaken a random divine ability or skill ording to the elemental of those precious resources. So, any beast might awaken a very powerful divine ability or apletely useless divine ability after consuming them.
There might be another factor such as their current power, their bloodlines, and so on, but their luck would also affect most of it.
However, this [Seven-Colored Star Flower] waspletely a different story...
The effect description of this [Seven-Colored Star Flower] had already clearly stated that anyone would ''awaken one extremely powerful star-type divine ability'' by consuming it.
Not to mention the other effect that ''upgrades the other star-type divine abilities by one level'' was also very tempting!
Tang Li Xue carefully put the [Seven-Colored Star Flower] into the jade box and stored it in the deepest part of her space pouch while secretly apologizing in her heart for carelessly throwing it around like a decoration before.
The next one was thest precious-looking item in Tang Li Xue''s space pouch, ranking 832nd in the Heavenly Treasure Ranking List, [Scepter of Disaster]...
Honestly, Tang Li Xue had mixed feelings about this [Scepter of Disaster].
At first, Tang Li Xue was very excited when she got this [Scepter of Disaster] since she thought she could use it to build her own ghost legion.
But right now, she suddenly thought it was really too troublesome and too time-consuming to do it...
After she witnessed Meng Yue being able to summon out her own legion or army with a single thought, this [Scepter of Disaster] was no longer that good in Tang Li Xue''s eyes.
Compared to the red-haired sexy fox girl who could control millions of creatures with her [Crimson Skies Domain], this [Scepter of Disaster] was clearly much inferior, right?!
Despite that, Tang Li Xue still held some hope that this [Scepter of Disaster] might have a more powerful hidden function as she tried to use her basic [All Knowing Eyes] on this [Scepter of Disaster].
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Key of Undead''s Glory]
[Description: A heavenly treasure forged by the Undead God himself from the Timeless Death Essense and Limitless Darkness Energy Core.
The Undead God nned to quickly nurture and strengthen his own race, so his Undead Race could conquer the entire Immortal World.
But the young Evil Ghost Emperor knew the Undead God''s ambition beforehand and secretly stole it when the Undead God''s strength greatly weakened after he forged it using all of his strength.
Later, the Evil Ghost Emperor changed its name to [Scepter of Disaster] and used it to build his own Ghost Legion to confront the Undead Race instead.
But the Evil Ghost Emperor still did not know until the end of his life that the Undead God created this treasure for a much more horrible purpose than he expected.]
[Effect 1: Increasing the power of death and darkness techniques, spells, skills, curses, secret arts, and so on by 300%.]
[Effect 2: Producing and controlling Darkness Energy and Death Energy.]
[Effect 3: Storing the corpses and souls of dead creatures. All the dead creatures stored inside will be nurtured with Death Energy and strengthen over time. They will also be more loyal and obedient to the holder over time.]
[Effect 4: ???]
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue once again grasped in shock when she saw the [Scepter of Disaster]''s description.
"Key... What~?! [Key of Undead''s Glory]? That is surely such a long description there..." Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise and disbelief.
After reading the entire description of the [Scepter of Disaster]... or she could also call it the [Key of Undead''s Glory], Tang Li Xue''s expression instantly turned grim.
She suddenly felt that this [Key of Undead''s Glory] was actually extremely bad news for both the Beast Race and the Human Race.
She really wanted to just throw this extremely ominous thing away...
But she knew that she should not do that...
Tang Li Xue pondered carefully for a while while muttering: "Should I just give this ursed thing to Miss Bookkeeper? As one of Fox n''s top leaders, she should have many ways to deal with this thing, right?"
"But the problem is... I do not even know how to contact her~! Urgh... Should I just give it to Instructor Mei Lan and ask her to give it to Miss Bookkeeper instead?" Tang Li Xue hesitated again and again.
"No, who knows if there are traitors or spies from the Undead Race in our Fox n, and they will steal this ursed thing backter~! The best and safest decision is to just let Little Loki consume this extremely ominous thing once and for all~!" Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining brighter as she muttered to herself.
However, Tang Li Xue decided to only do it when she no longer had any other choiceter.
Well... Mostly because she still had a thought to use this [Scepter of Disaster] or [Key of Undead''s Glory] to build her own Ghost Legion like Evil Ghost Emperor.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth as she threw the [Scepter of Disaster] into her space pouch and shouted in panic: "All right~! Let''s just forget this thing for now~! My time is almost up~!"
"I better pawn the [Blood Sealing Chain] as soon as possible and quickly buy all of the daily necessities! Let''s go, Little Loki, Yaya~!" Tang Li Xue hastily called the sleepy Little Loki and Yaya.
Tang Li Xue swiftly ran out from her room and the Residential Building while Little Loki and Yaya sat leisurely on her shoulders.
The [Blood Sealing Chain] was made from very precious rare metal, so Tang Li Xue pawned it for quite a lot of credits.
Tang Li Xue quickly used her credits to buy their ration first such as a few bags of Spirit Dew Cucumber for her Wind Riding Bird''s feed, many kinds of delicious spirit fruits for Yaya''s food, several boxes of beast cores for Little Loki''s snack, and so on.
When Tang Li Xue nned to buy the other daily necessities, her credits were already consumedpletely.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched in sorrow as she closed her topaz blue eyes to resist her urge to cry.
"Big Brother, now I know the difficulty of a single parent like you... I am really sorry forining childishly about many things before..." Tang Li Xue muttered dejectedly.
Since her credits had already beenpletely spent, Tang Li Xue could only head to Space Gate Hall with Yaya and Little Loki to meet with the others.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox had already waited for Tang Li Xue for quite some time there.
"What took you so long toe here?! You came toote to my ss yesterday, and now, you alsoe toote here!" Instructor Mei Lan scolded Tang Li Xue harshly.
Comingte was an extremely bad habit, especially for their investigation department.
They could even miss a lot of important information by justing a few secondste in their mission!
Tang Li Xue could only lower her head in guilt since this was really her fault this time.
Silly Fox and Bingbing looked at the pitiful Tang Li Xue, but before they could try to open their mouth to stand up for her...
Instructor Mei Lan had already red at the two of them and scolded: "You two are also the same as her! From now on, I will reduce your credits for every second youete!"
Tang Li Xue immediately bravely replied: "Instructor Lan, you can punish me as hard as you like, but please never reduce my credits~!"
Instructor Mei Lan red at Tang Li Xue and asked coldly: "Why? Do you want to oppose my punishment?"
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes as a drop of tear streamed down: "I do not have any more credit."
Instructor Mei Lan: "....."
Tang Li Xue: "I even already pawned my item to feed..."
"All right, that is enough~! I will not reduce your credit, but you mustplete 10,000 sets of my training in one day after we go backter!" Instructor Mei Lan interrupted halfway with an annoyed tone.
Silly Fox and Bingbing stared at Tang Li Xue with amazement, and they secretly gave a double thumbs up to Tang Li Xue behind Instructor Mei Lan''s back.
Tang Li Xue ignored these two fools since she did not want to get punished even more heavily by Instructor Mei Lan.
SMACK~! SMACK~! SMACK~!
Of course, the back of their heads got smacked by Instructor Mei Lan as a gift.
"Why me too..." Tang Li Xueined softly with a wronged expression.
Chapter 687 687: Beast Tide!
Chapter 687 Chapter 687: Beast Tide!
Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the others entered the enormous bright Space Gate Hall together.
There were still so many foxes in human forming and going in this Space Gate Hall as usual while wearing cloaks to cover their fox ears and tails.
Instructor Mei Lan also took out three hooded cloaks and gave them to her three students while exining: "There are a stealth rune and a protection rune engraved on these cloaks. Although the level of these treasured cloaks is not high, but it should be better than wearing the normal ones."
"Thank you very much, Instructor Lan~!" Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox cheerfully thanked Instructor Mei Lan after receiving the treasured hooded cloak.
After all of them wore the treasured hooded cloak, Instructor Mei Lan brought her three students toward one of the giant stone rings.
Instructor Mei Lan immediately activated the giant stone ring with her badge to open the Space Gate, and all of them hastily entered the Space Gate together.
When they stepped out of the Space Gate, they were already in the middle of a dense forest.
Instructor Mei Lan took the lead by taking out her Wind Riding Bird first.
When Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox saw it, they also took out their own Wind Riding Bird from their mid-rank space pouch.
After giving one or two Spirit Dew Cucumbers to feed their Wind Riding Bird, all of them jumped onto the Wind Riding Bird''s back. The four Wind Riding Birds pped their wings and soared into the sky together.
Tang Li Xue thought they might bump into some perverted cultivators or even a few assassins who targeted her just like her previous journey to the Inheritance Ground Tablet.
But contrary to her expectations, their journey was extremely smooth, and they did not meet with any foes or obstacles at all.
The bored Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Yaya even started to y around and joke with each other.
The smug butzy Little Loki did not bother to join them as it fell asleep on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head as usual.
However, Tang Li Xue realized something was not right on their way.
"Instructor Lan... Don''t you feel like there are too many beasts scattered around?" Tang Li Xue asked with a suspicious tone.
"You do not need to think too much about it. There should be beast tide again soon, but it is not our business at all. Just let them do what they want ~!" Instructor Mei Lan replied with a t tone as if she did not pay any attention to it.
"Beast tide? Again?" Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and asked again with a more curious tone.
Instructor Mei Lan sighed while hesitating for a few moments.
She actually did not want to tell Tang Li Xue about it because she knew that Tang Li Xue had a strong feeling and sense of sympathy for the Human Race.
But after pondering for a while, Instructor Mei Lan decided to tell it honestly to Tang Li Xue since she could probably guess it sooner orter.
After all, they would definitely enter the human city soon, and Tang Li Xue could easily find any information she wanted by asking anyone there.
"After their Inheritance Ground Tablet was missing, the Human Race used our Beast Race of stealing it and demanded us harshly to return it soon."
"Of course, our Beast Race refused to admit it, thus the rtionship between our Beast Race and Human Race deteriorated further to freezing point, and this happened. Human Race hunted any Beast Race they met in anger, while Beast Raceunched Beast Tide to ughter the Human Race."
"But frontal head-on war like this is not our Fox n''s business, since our job is only to provide any information the other Beast Races want and secretly assassinate the important leaders of the Human Race if we find a chance."
Instructor Mei Lan concluded her exnation still with a t tone as if she did not really care about it at all.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox werepletely dumbfounded when they heard the information told by Instructor Mei Lan.
Especially Tang Li Xue, since her stunningly beautiful face turned a bit pale as she muttered in a sorrowful voice: "That is... Is it my fault?"
A negative thought shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind as she suddenly thought that the Inheritance Ground Tablet might not have vanished if she had not entered it before.
Maybe because she was the only anomaly at that time since there was no other beast race from outside entered there.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes disdainfully as she scolded: "Do you begin to think too high of yourself now? Do you seriously think that everything in this world revolves around you?! Listen up, you stupid Xue~! Even if you were not there, the Inheritance Ground Tablet will still definitely be stolen and lost!"
Tang Li Xue immediately woke up by Instructor Mei Lan''s words. Her charming face blushed in embarrassment.
She lowered her head while saying in shame: "You are right, Instructor Lan~! Thank you for reminding me... It seems I have be too conceitedtely. Hehehehe~!"
''That is right~! I am really such a big fool~! I am not even a protagonist, so how could everything happen because of me?!'' Tang Li Xue thought as her mood became much better.
"But you should not tell anyone that you had entered the Inheritance Ground Tablet at that time, or you would definitely be the main target of those humans! Wait a minute... Are there any people who saw you enter the Inheritance Ground Tablet before?" Instructor Mei Lan asked with a grim expression.
"Eh? That is..." Tang Li Xue murmured in surprise while thinking.
There were actually many people, but most of them had already died under the scummy baldy uncle, Mo Chonglin.
Tang Li Xue could only remember two people who were still remain alive until now... Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu. Well, since she was the one who personally saved both of them from Mo Chonglin''s grasp before.
"Err... They should not tell anyone about me after that, right? I mean I am the one who saved their lives after all... So, at least they should feel indebted to me and conceal any information about me." Tang Li Xue muttered with a worried tone.
But actually, Ye Zhen had already killed Beiming Chu in the end, and he had alsopletely disappeared after that, so no second human knew about Tang Li Xue entering the Inheritance Ground Tablet until now.
Of course, Tang Li Xue still did not know anything about it, so she could only secretly hope that Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu would not tell any other people about her.
On their way, Tang Li Xue witnessed so many viges and towns being razed to the ground by the cruel beast tide.
Countless human cultivators shed against the raging beast tide and fought with their lives on the line.
Blood flowed like a river.
Shattered limbs and gnawed corpses were scattered everywhere.
If it was the previous Tang Li Xue who had seen this cruel scene, she might have thrown up many times.
But the current Tang Li Xue had gone through several identical situations in the Foxes Hunting Festival, so she had already grown used to it. However, her charming face still became a bit paler because of it.
Ironically, their journey became very smooth because the Human Race and the Beast Race were too busy fighting against each other, and they did not have time to pay any attention to them.
If any Beast Race wanted to attack them, they only needed to show their fluffy fox ears and tails, then those Beast Race would let them go.
Meanwhile, any Human Race they met would treat them as a group of pitiful young girls who tried to escape from the war, and then those humans did not bother to make it difficult for them.
After rushing their Wind Riding Birds to fly for a few days nonstop, Instructor Mei Lan decided to let them rest for one night.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox wanted tond in the nearby city, so they could eat delicious food in the restaurant and sleepfortably in the inn.
Unfortunately, Instructor Mei Lan rejected their idea.
There were Beast Tides everywhere at the moment, so there was no guarantee that the city they stayed in tonight would not be attacked by the Beast Tide in the middle of the night.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox could only follow Instructor Mei Lan''s suggestion and took a rest in the abandoned temple in the middle of the forest.
The sky had turned dark, and it was still drizzling right now.
Tang Li Xue tried to make a bonfire inside the abandoned temple with her me of Pride, but she almost burned down the entire abandoned temple instead because she almost lost control over her me of Pride.
Then she got rewarded with a love smack on her head by Instructor Mei Lan until there was a huge bump on the top of her head.
Little Loki red resentfully at Instructor Mei Lan since the top of Tang Li Xue''s head was actually its personal bed.
Before they went to sleep, Instructor Mei Lan took this chance to tell any information she knew about this mission to her three students.
"The name of the Sea Beast Princess is Yan Fei. As you already know, she is extremely stubborn because she has already been spoiled rotten since she was little."
"She never experienced any slightest suffering. Everyone respects and fears her so much because of her status as the most pampered princess. Thus she is really an extremely easy target to deceive by that cunning human."
?
Chapter 688 688: Arrived at Garden City!
Chapter 688 Chapter 688: Arrived at Garden City!
Tang Li Xue still felt unconvinced by Instructor Mei Lan''s one-sided nder against all humans, so she asked with a reluctant tone: "Then... Instructor Lan, what if that human did not deceive the Sea Beast Princess at all? Um, I mean... What if that Sea Beast Princess and human truly fell deeply in love with each other?"
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes disdainfully and replied with a stern tone: "We do not need to care if it was false love or true love! Our task is to bring back the Sea Beast Princess to her home, and somehow we must find a way to prevent her froming back to see that human again in the future!"
Tang Li Xue did not dare to retort Instructor Mei Lan''s words since they might argue with each other because of it, so she chose to remain silent instead.
Both Little Loki and Yaya had already fallen fast asleep first, while Bingbing and Silly Fox were still waiting for Instructor Mei Lan to finish her exnation before they went to sleep.
Instructor Mei Lan coughed to clear her throat and continued her exnation with a solemn tone: "The identity of that male human is also far from simple, so our mission this time is really not an easy one."
"He is the sixth great-grandson of the Alchemist Sect''s Grand Elder. Moreover, the Grand Elder appreciates his great talent in alchemy very much. He was also well known as a one-in-thousand-years genius alchemist. His name is Gu Shengxin."
"His cultivation level may not be high. But he definitely has many connections with powerful cultivators because of his identity as a genius alchemist. If we are not careful, we might be besieged and attacked by those powerful cultivatorster!"
"Luckily for us, both Yan Fei and Gu Shengxin are currently not living in the Alchemist Sect, or we would not have any chance to approach them at all. The two of them are currently living in the Gu Family''s mansion located in Garden City right now."
"Nheless, it would still not be easy for us to do anything to them since Garden City is located so close to the Alchemist Sect, and there are many strong cultivators hired by the Alchemist Sect who are guarding that City."
"You could already guess from the city''s name alone. Garden City is the ce where the Alchemist Sect cultivates the materials for their pill-making. It is an extremely important ce for them, so it is not strange that they hired so many strong cultivators to guard it."
"There are also many formations installed there, so we would not be able to move around freely in that Garden City. In short, this S-grade mission is clearly too difficult for us toplete."
Instructor Mei Lan sighed in frustration and helplessness. Then she red resentfully at Tang Li Xue again.
Tang Li Xue could only pretend not to notice it as cold sweat soaked her forehead in nervousness.
Bingbing braved herself and asked curiously: "Then how could the previous foxes who epted this mission kidnap that Sea Beast Princess and bring her back?"
Instructor Mei Lan replied again: "They kidnapped that princess by using deception at that time. They imitated Gu Shengxin''s voice and sessfully called that princess out of Garden City using a fakemunication talisman. But that n clearly would not work anymore for the second time."
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she thought of her sess chance if she tried to lead that Sea Beast Princess out of the Garden City with her [Mystic Whisper].
But she quickly shook her head to reject the idea as she thought: ''Instructor Lan is right. My chances of sess are almost none since that Sea Beast Princess was already fooled once using this n.''
"All right~! You all can go to sleep now~! I will stay awake and keep on guard, so you all do not need to worry." Instructor Mei Lan instructed them.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox took out their sleeping bag from their space pouch and fell asleep together until morning.
The next morning, they immediately rode their Wind Riding Bird and rushed straight toward the Garden City together.
It only took them another few days of nonstop traveling before they finally reached Garden City.
Even though they had heard about Garden City from Instructor Mei Lan before, it still could not bepared to seeing it with their own eyes.
Garden City was actually extremely prosperous with millions of poption and more than half of them were cultivators!
Moreover, the professions of most of these people were either farmers or alchemists.
Tang Li Xue nced at the hundred-meter-tall city walls and saw that they were engraved with unknown formations.
Since there were so many peopleing and going from the city gate, the guard at the city gate was prettyx.
They only needed to pay ten spirit stones per person, and they would be allowed to enter the Garden City without any need to undergo anyplicated check.
When Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox stepped into the Garden City, they immediately smelled the strong herbal scent everywhere.
Tang Li Xue also secretly noticed that there were actually many guards with powerful cultivation patrolling everywhere in this Garden City.
It was as if those guards were saying that just because I allowed all of you to enter the city easily, but it did not mean I would let all of you do anything you wanted inside the city.
Instructor Mei Lan brought her three students sightseeing all around the entire Garden City after buying a detailed map from a merchant, but they actually secretly inspected the entire Garden City.
After all, knowing yourself, knowing your battlefield, and knowing your enemies were the basic requirements to survive and win any battle.
Little Loki and Yaya might be the most carefree among them since they did not need to think anything as Tang Li Xue brought all the snacks on the street for them to eat.
At first, Tang Li Xue thought she could pay for those snacks and foods using the useless mountain of silver and gold she got from Elder Yang before, but who knew that those people only received spirit stones as their hard currency?!
So, it made Tang Li Xue almostpletely spend all of her remaining spirit stones. Tang Li Xue secretly cried in sorrow when she saw her thinning wallet.
After the skies turned dark, they went back to their inn and had a meeting to discuss their next n together in Instructor Mei Lan''s room.
"We do not have much time, so we need to divide out tasks. I will use these few days to survey this entire Garden City carefully, so we can find a way to retreat safely even if our mission failster. What about you three? What do you three want to do tomorrow? Do any of you have any good ns toplete this mission?" Instructor Mei Lan told her n and asked what her three students'' wanted to do.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox nced at each other in confusion, but they really did not know what to do.
Silly Fox gritted his teeth and braved himself as the only male fox and said: "I will look for more information about Gu Family and Gu Shengxin tomorrow."
Bingbing quickly followed up and shouted: "Then I will look for more detailed information about Yan Fei tomorrow~!"
After that, Instructor Mei Lan, Silly Fox, and Bingbing stared curiously at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve in nervousness and muttered with a hesitant tone: "Then I... uhhh, I will..."
"That is right~! I will keep a close eye on the Gu Family''s mansion tomorrow~!" Tang Li Xue said confidently as her topaz blue eyes were shining brighter like a pair of stars in excitement.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded her head in agreement and continued to speak: "Okay, let''s move to the next question... Do any of you have any good idea or n toplete this mission?"
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox instantly got stumped and fell silent after that.
If it was only kidnapping the Sea Beast Princess and bringing her back to her Sea Beast Kingdom, they might still be able to think a few good ideas.
But if they must also think of a way to make the Sea Beast Princesspletely forget about Gu Shengxin and stay obediently in her home like a good girl, then it would be a different matter.
That was a matter of love after all~!
Meanwhile, no one among them has any experience about love at all...
No, maybe only Silly Fox has it, but they clearly could not use it as their reference.
After thinking deeply for more than ten minutes until their heads were almost smoking, they finally decided to give up for today and discuss it again tomorrow.
Chapter 689 689: Peculiar Gesture!
Chapter 689 Chapter 689: Peculiar Gesture!
Instructor Mei Lan kicked her three students out of her room after their discussion session was over.
So, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox could only return to their respective rooms to sleep.
When Tang Li Xue entered her own room, Little Loki and Yaya already waited for her on the bed.
Yaya had already fallen fast asleep first, but Little Loki patted its bulging stomach while burping in satisfaction.
Just one nce and anyone would know that it had just done something up to no good.
Tang Li Xue rolled her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes as she spoke to warn Little Loki: "You can do what you want, but just make sure that you will never be seen, discovered, or get caught by anyone at least until our mission is over. Do you understand, Little Loki~?!"
Little Loki waved its paw leisurely signifying that it understood.
Tang Li Xue could only shake her head helplessly at Little Loki''s sloppy attitude.
However, Tang Li Xue did not really worry about Little Loki getting caught by anyone.
Different from when they were in the Foxes Hunting Festival, Little Loki no longer had any restrictions here.
With its [Instant Teleportation], [Phantom Splitters], and [Heaven''s Devour], Litte Loki waspletely uncatchable by anyone.
No formation could restrict it since Little Loki could just use [Heaven''s Devour] to swallow a part of that formation and open a hole in that formation like when they were in Quanhai City before.
It was just that, it would be really bad for their group if anyone saw Little Loki''s figure after it did something bad, and that person could guess that Little Loki was a part of their group, then report it to the guards.
That would surely make their mission even more difficult toplete!
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered slightly in fear as she did not even dare to imagine how Instructor Mei Lan would punish her if that really happened!
Tang Li Xue knew that it would be futile to warn Little Loki again, so she quicklyy down on the softfortable bed beside Yaya.
The room of this inn might be simple and in since their group did not choose to stay at the most luxurious inn in order not to attract any unwanted attention, but it was clearly much better than sleeping outside.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to fall asleep too.
On the next morning, when the light of sunrise entered through the gap in the window, Yaya was the first to wake up, and she quickly shook the fast-asleep Tang Li Xue to wake her up too.
"Urmmh... Just let me sleep for another five... No, ten minutes..." Tang Li Xue murmured softly.
"Yaya Ya Yayaya Ya~! (Instructor Lan will get angry if you wake upte again today~!)" Yaya shouted frantically to remind Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue hastily got up after hearing Yaya''s reminder, but she stillzily yawned and stretched her slender body.
Tang Li Xue wore her white cloak to cover her silver furry tails and white veil to cover her stunningly beautiful face.
She actually liked to wear a white fox mask much more, but unfortunately, the information received by those annoying assassins who hunted her before said that she always wore a white fox mask.
In order to avoid their chasing, Tang Li Xue could only change and wear the veil from now on...
She took the sleeping Little Loki and put it on the top of her head while Yaya had already sat on her right shoulder.
She covered her fluffy silver fox ears and the sleeping Little Loki on her head with her hood before she went out of her room to meet with the others.
Instructor Mei Lan and Bingbing had already waiting outside.
Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief when she had not seen Silly Fox yet.
''Oh, well... At least, I am not thest one to wake up...'' Tang Li Xue thought smugly in her mind.
Instructor Mei Lan could instantly read what Tang Li Xue thought in one nce, and she immediately reminded: "You arete~!"
Tang Li Xue''s body stiffened as she replied: "But Silly Fox has not woken up yet!"
"Not being thest one to wake up, does not mean you do not wake upte~!" Instructor Mei Lan retorted to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Tang Li Xue instantly became speechless, but at this time, Silly Fox had also woken up and went out of his room.
Instructor Mei Lan did not me them for waking up a bitte at least for today since they had already rushed on their journey without sleep for a few days.
Their rooms were next to each other and all of them were on the third floor of this inn.
Instructor Mei Lan led them to the restaurant on the second floor to eat some breakfast.
When they were eating some breakfast like meat buns, dumplings, and so on, they saw a luxurious carriage run on the street while escorted by so many guards.
"That luxurious carriage belongs to the Gu Family. You can see from the carved on the carriage''s wall." Instructor Mei Lan exined it to her three students.
Silly Fox frowned and guessed: "Is Gu Shengxin inside that carriage?"
Tang Li Xue snorted displeasingly as she said: "No matter who is inside that carriage. Is there any need to parade in the middle of the street with great fanfare like that?"
Tang Li Xue raised her middle finger unhappily toward the luxurious carriage on the street.
"Little Xue, what does that gesture mean?" Bingbing asked with a curious tone while holding Tang Li Xue''s other arm.
"Uhh, this gesture means... Err, it means I am respecting the person inside that carriage." At first, Tang Li Xue nned to tell the truth, but the meaning seemed to be too rude, so she decided to lie instead.
"Oh? Then me too~!" Bingbing followed Tang Li Xue and yfully raised her middle finger in the direction of that luxurious carriage.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled as she could easily guess from Tang Li Xue''s expression that her gesture should be very rude and insulting, but she did not bother to say anything to ruin their fun.
Unfortunately, someone was actually courting death at this time...
The innocent Silly Fox actually dared to raise his middle finger toward Instructor Mei Lan with a silly innocent smile on his handsome face!
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression instantly turned cold as she grabbed the Silly Fox''s middle finger and...
CRACK~!
"AAARRRGGHHH~!" Silly Fox screamed in pain as his middle finger bent strangely.
Tang Li Xue and Bingbing shuddered in fright, then they hastily put down their finger and hands.
"Why?!" The innocent Silly Fox who still did not understand what he did wrong, and he could only stare at Instructor Mei Lan with a wronged expression.
Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to exin as she stood up and said: "All right~! If you already eat enough until you are full, then we will split up and do our own task for today."
Tang Li Xue and Bingbing also stood up while nodding their heads.
Little Loki and Yaya also flew back under Tang Li Xue''s cloak after they cleaned up all of the food on the table.
When they split up, Tang Li Xue secretly threw [Talisman of Regeneration +3] onto Silly Fox before she went out from the inn with Yaya and Little Loki.
Well, she felt a little guilty because what happened to Silly Fox was because of her.
"Xue~! I know you are the one who cares about me the most~!" Silly Fox instantly recovered from his depression of unfair treatment from Instructor Mei Lan as he happily went out of the inn to do his own task too.
.....
Meanwhile, the previous luxurious carriage finally reached the Gu Family''s mansion after a few minutes.
One of the guards opened the carriage door while lowering his head politely.
The person inside the luxurious carriage slowly got off the luxurious carriage.
It was actually a man wearing an untainted pure white robe and silver mask to cover his face.
If Tang Li Xue was here, she would definitely recognize this person in an instant!
Who else if it was not Elder Yang, the Honorable Elder of the Immortal Sword Sect?!
A middle-aged man and a young handsome man hastily went out from the Gu Family''s mansion, and they politely greeted Elder Yang: "Hahaha~! So, Elder Yang has already arrived~! Those old guys from Immortal Sword Sect said you are extremely handsome and talented. At first, I think they are only exaggerating it. But after I have seen it now, you are actually as handsome and talented as everyone said!"
Elder Yang smiled as he gave a fist and palm salute while saying: "Hi, Elder Gu! You are too polite!"
"Elder Yang, this is my son, Gu Shengxin. Xin''er, this is Elder Yang, the Honorable Elder of the Immortal Sword Sect." The middle-aged man introduced Elder Yang and u Shengxin to each other.
Elder Yang smiled while nodding at Gu Shengxin and praising: "I have already heard about you. The most talented alchemist of the Alchemist Sect, a one-in-thousand-years genius alchemist, Gu Shengxin!"
Gu Shengxin blushed a bit as he quickly denied it: "That is too exaggerated. I am only a bit better than most people."
"Hahahaha~! All right, let''s stop talking here ande in first~!" The middle-aged manughed and said as he invited Elder Yang to enter the Gu Family''s mansion politely.
Elder Yang nodded and followed the middle-aged man and Gu Shengxin, then they entered the Gu Family''s mansion together.
Chapter 690 690: Messy Feeling!
Chapter 690 Chapter 690: Messy Feeling!
Gu Family was the family of alchemists. So, of course, they were extremely rich.
Their mansion was also very luxurious.
Every tile in their mansion was made from rare beautiful jade, while every pir was made from silver and gold.
Even every flower, herb, nt, and tree nted in all of their gardens and yards was rare and precious.
Not only luxurious and beautiful like paradise, but their mansion was also installed with many advanced high-level formations such as the Spiritual Energy Gathering Formation, Protection Formation, and so on.
Immortal Sword Sect might be well-known as the strongest sect in this Lightwind Continent, but there was no doubt that the Alchemist Sect was the richest sect in this Lightwind Continent.
Both of them as the strongest sect and richest sect in this Lightwind Continent, so it was not strange that their rtionship was very close to each other.
Immortal Sword Sect needed arge supply of pills and cultivation resources from the Alchemist Sect, while the Alchemist Sect needed protection from the coveting the eyes of other sects, Four Evil Sects, Beast Races, and so on.
In short, their rtionship waspletely mutual and almost unbreakable.
Actually, the Immortal Sword Sect''s patriarch had already urged Elder Yang to have closer contact with the Alchemist Sect as early as one month ago.
But Elder Yang no longer had his ambition to take over the Immortal Sword Sect like before after he met with Tang Li Xue, so he refused it.
Unfortunately, the recent Beast Tide incidents which had happened at many ces in the Lightwind Continent gave the Immortal Sword Sect''s patriarch a chance to force Elder Yang to have closer contact with the Alchemist Sect.
After rushing to the Alchemist Sect and having a meeting with the Alchemist Sect''s patriarch a few days ago, Elder Yang led more than a dozen Nascent Soul Stage Elders of the Immortal Sword Sect to closely guard this Garden City.
The main reason for that was because this Garden City was the lifeblood of the Alchemist Sect.
More than 60% of their pill materials such as herbs, fruits, flowers, and so on were supplied from Garden City.
When this Garden City falls, it means the Alchemist Sect will certainly be half crippled.
Could great alchemists make any pills without any materials? Nope~!
Even the Immortal Sword Sect... No, all Human Race in Lightwind Continent would be greatly affected if the Alchemist Sect could no longer produce any pills!
Thus this Garden City must be closely guarded and never be allowed to fall no matter what happens!
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue, who was currently secretly monitoring the Gu Family''s mansion with Yaya and Little Loki, had already realized that it would not be easy to infiltrate there.
"Woah~! What a scary ce is this~?! There are so many guards and so manyyers of protection formation~! This ce is probably no less tightly guarded than the Imperial Pce in the Foxes Hunting Festival~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in awe.
Tang Li Xue did not exaggerate it at all since she had already seen several Nascent Soul Stage Elders of the Immortal Sword Sect patrolling around the vicinity of Gu Family''s Mansion.
She did not even dare to stay too long around the vicinity of Gu Family''s Mansion after she saw them and immediately acted as if she was just passing by there.
As for why Tang Li Xue could recognize that they were the elders from the Immortal Sword Sect... It was because she had already seen their uniform at Tang Feng City before.
All of the cultivators in 5 Righteous Sects from disciples to elders were extremely proud of their own sect, so they usually wore their uniform outside to show their identity to others.
Moreover, those Nascent Soul Stage Elders wantonly released their cultivation pressure to intimidate the others to not get too close to Gu Family''s mansion, so anyone with a little brain would instantly know their identity and cultivation level.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she could not find a way to get close to Gu Family''s mansion at all with those Nascent Soul Stage Elders patrolling and guarding it.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only take out hermunication talisman from her space pouch and tell the current situation honestly to Instructor Mei Lan.
"That is not strange. You should already know about Beast Tide. Those several Nascent Soul Stage Elders from Immortal Sword Sect should be assigned to guard this Garden City from the Beast Tide." Instructor Mei Lan''s casual voice came out from Tang Li Xue''smunication talisman.
"So, what should I do now?" Tang Li Xue asked with a puzzled tone.
"Have you counted how many Nascent Soul Stage Elders are guarding and patrolling around there?" Instructor Mei Lan asked curiously.
"Err, it should be around four or five Nascent Soul Stage Elders... But I am sure there should be more of them inside the mansion." Tang Li Xue replied with an uncertain tone.
"How about your perfect clone''s divine ability? Can you use it to sneak into that mansion and look at the situation there first?" Instructor Mei Lan asked again.
"Nope, it is still in cooldown. I can only use it again tomorrow." Tang Li Xue helplessly answered.
"Then you arepletely useless today~! Just go for a walk with Little Yaya and your cat for today... Oh, don''t forget about time and return before dark~!" Instructor Mei Lan instructed before she disconnected theirmunication.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched in annoyance at Instructor Mei Lan''s tant underestimation of her.
"Sigh, forget it... Instructor Mei Lan still does not know that I already have many new useful divine abilities such as [Mystic Whisper]. I can try to use it to extract information from Gu Mansion''s people!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a confident tone.
Tang Li Xue lurked around the Gu Family''s mansion for a few more hours until she saw a servante out from the mansion to buy something.
Of course, she sat on the 2nd floor of the teahouse opposite the Gu Family''s mansion in order not to attract the attention of the patrolling guards or Nascent Soul Stage Elders.
Tang Li Xue quickly paid for her tea with several low-tier spirit stones while gnashing her pearl-white teeth andining silently in her heart: ''Damn it~! What is this tea made from?! Gold or diamond?! How the hell could one pot cost 10 low-tier Spirit Stones?! This is clearly a daylight robbery~!''
Despite herint, Tang Li Xue quickly got out of the teahouse and followed the servant closely from behind.
After they were already quite far from the Gu Family''s mansion, Tang Li Xue tapped the servant''s shoulder from behind.
When the servant turned around and nced at her, Tang Li Xue''s charming topaz blue eyes were shining with dim light.
Tang Li Xue had used [Eyes of Illusion] on him!
The servant did not pay any attention to Tang Li Xue as if he did not see her at all, and he walked again as before.
But this time, the servant was heading to the other ce without realizing it.
This street was too crowded, so Tang Li Xue clearly could not just kidnap him in front of the eyes of so many people.
Moreover, most of the people in this street were also cultivators, even though most of them did not have a high cultivation level.
Tang Li Xue easily led the servant to walk toward a deste ce with her [Eyes of Illusion].
After making sure that no one was nearby right now, Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki and Yaya to stand guard, so no one woulde close to this ce until she finished her business with that servant.
"You must answer all of my questions truthfully from now on. Are a girl named Yan Fei and a guy called Gu Shengxin in that mansion right now?" Tang Li Xue asked the servant using her [Mystic Whisper].
Tang Li Xue''s words instantly prated into the deepest part of the servant''s consciousness without giving him any chance to resist, and he instantly fell under Tang Li Xue''s control.
The servant''s expression became nk as he answered Tang Li Xue''s question: "I do not know any girl named Yan Fei. But Gu Shengxin is my young master, so of course, he lives in the mansion."
Tang Li Xue nodded, and then she asked again: "Tell me all the information you know about the people living inside Gu Family''s mansion!"
The servant started to bber all the information he knew about the Gu Family''s mansion, but unfortunately, most of it was the information that Tang Li Xue did not need.
Tang Li Xue could only sigh in disappointment.
But it should be Tang Li Xue''s fault for expecting too much from a lowly servant.
How could a lowly servant who served as a coolie in the kitchen know about the crucial information of Gu Family''s mansion?!
Just when Tang Li Xue thought that she would not get any crucial information from this lowly servant, she suddenly heard that the lowly servant actually mentioned a familiar name.
Elder Yang, the Honorable Elder of the Immortal Sword Sect, brought many Nascent Soul Stage Elders with him to help guard this Garden City today~!
Tang Li Xue''s mood instantly became very messy, and she fell into a panic after she heard the information about Elder Yang.
She did not know how she must face Elder Yang anymore after Instructor Mei Lan told her that Elder Yang was the one who sent those assassins to kill her before.
Chapter 691 691: Suspicious Gu Shengxin!
Chapter 691 Chapter 691: Suspicious Gu Shengxin!
Tang Li Xue pondered carefully as she sorted out her messy feelings.
Did she have any resentment because she was betrayed by Elder Yang? Well... Not really. Maybe because she only met with Elder Yang a few times, and she was not that close to Elder Yang yet.
Did she feel angry because of it? It would be a lie if she said that she was not angry at all, but surprisingly, she only felt a little angry at him at best.
After thinking for a while, she suddenly realized that for some unknown reason, she still could not believe that Elder Yang had betrayed her.
It was truly a strange contradicting feeling since she clearly trusted Instructor Mei Lan so much morepared to that yboy Elder Yang.
However, it still could not be denied that she felt extremely strong disappointment at him because of that.
The information given by Instructor Mei Lan from the Assassin Tower was clear andplete with concrete evidence. Even if Elder Yang was not the one who did it, then it should be someone close to him from Immortal Sword Sect who did it.
Tang Li Xue shook her head to push away all of her messy thoughts.
It was true that she might trust Elder Yang too much before, and she was extremely disappointed in him right now, but she did not think too much about it.
She thought it was normal since she only had two human friends in this Immortal World, Elder Yang and Ye Zhen. As a former human, of course, she would trust them more, right?
Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation as she muttered: "Let''s just forget this for now... This is no longer important anyway. The most important thing to do right now is to find a way to get more information about Yan Fei, Gu Shengxin, and all the other people living in that Gu Family''s mansion."
"It would be best if I could find a way to sneak into Gu Family''s mansion... But that is clearly too dangerous for me to do it personally. The best option I have is to wait until tomorrow until the cooldown of my [Twin Moons] finished and let my perfect copy do it instead." Tang Li Xue concluded her next n.
Tang Li Xue tried to use her [Mystic Whisper] to interrogate the servant again to see if she could get more important information from him.
Unfortunately, that was the only important information he knew.
The servant also knew about Elder Yang''s information because the head butler reminded them repeatedly yesterday with a harsh tone to never make any mistake today.
If not for that, how could a lowly servant like him know any information about Elder Yang?!
After making sure that she did not miss any crucial information from the servant, Tang Li Xue knocked the servant''s head until he fell unconscious.
Learning from her previous mistakes, Tang Li Xue immediately tried to use her [Energy Maniption] to extract any trace of her energy or aura on the servant, so no one would be able to find anything on the servant and use it to track her like what happened at the Foxes Hunting Festival before.
"Sess~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in delight as she pulled out a faint trace of her energy and aura from inside the servant''s body with her [Energy Maniption] and gathered it on the tip of her finger.
An extremely charming smile bloomed on Tang Li Xue''s stunningly beautiful face. Unfortunately, there were no people there to admire it, or they might be instantly bewitched by her dazzling bright smile.
"I knew it~! My [Energy Maniption] is surely not a simple divine ability~! Since those people can do it, then there is no reason that I cannot do it with my [Energy Maniption]~!" Tang Li Xue said with a smug tone.
Her [Energy Maniption] could even control Meng Yue''s energy sealed in the form of a vassal mark and transferred it to another target before.
Actually, it should not be possible to do since Meng Yue was much stronger than her. Even now, she still did not have any clue at all why her [Energy Maniption] could do it.
Compared to that, extracting her own trace of energy and aura from inside the servant''s body was actually too easy to do.
With a little practice, she might be able to do it without using her [Energy Maniption], although she would hurt the servant''s body in the process.
"Little Loki, Yaya, Let''s go~!" Tang Li Xue called Little Loki and Yaya, then they quickly went away from that deste ce leaving the unconscious servant alone.
After Tang Li Xue walked back to the crowded street, she absentmindedly headed back to the inn since the sun had already set, and the sky almost turned dark.
At first, Tang Li Xue wanted to treat Little Loki and Yaya to eat some delicious meals because of their good job today, but she immediately realized that she was poor right now.
She regretted it a bit that she had not taken that servant''s wallet before. Spirit stones were the only hard currency here in Garden City, so that servant must have brought some spirit stones since he wanted to buy some cooking ingredients.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only extort... cough, I mean asking her own precious martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], to produce a few mid-tier spirit stones as her pocket money.
Actually, her [Golden Winged Serpent] already produced several mid-tier spirit stones on their way to this Garden City before, but Tang Li Xue did not think too much at that time and used all of them to increase her cultivation.
Because of this, even though Tang Li Xue''s current cultivation was still at the 1st level of the Foundation Establishment Stage, but she had almost breakthrough to the 2nd level of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Who knew that this Garden City actually did not receive any gold and silver which she had piled up so much in her space pouch as currency, so she instantly became penniless.
If it was not for Instructor Mei Lan who paid for everything from their city entrance fees, lodging costs, and meals, Tang Li Xue might not have even been able to enter this Garden City.
Tang Li Xue went to a remote ce near the inn first and summoned her [Golden Winged Serpent] out.
Under Tang Li Xue''s coercion, the [Golden Winged Serpent] shed two mid-tier spirit stones with great difficulty while showing a wronged expression.
When Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Yaya were eating their dinner, Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox also returned to the inn one by one, so they ate together at one table in the end.
After all of them finished their dinner and felt full, Instructor Mei Lan instructed all of them to gather in her room again to exchange all of the information they managed to obtain today and discuss their next n for tomorrow.
Silly Fox told them the information he got after asking around today: "Gu Shengxin''s reputation is extremely good in this Garden City. He is a one-in-thousand-years alchemist genius, handsome, kind-hearted, caring, and filial in front of all people''s eyes."
Then Silly Fox frowned a bit as he continued to say: "But I have a faint unsettling feeling about this guy... I mean he is too perfect without any w in the eyes of all people. From my experience, a guy like this Gu Shengxin is clearly a hypocritical person who is good at hiding his true self and possesses a perfect acting skill."
Instructor Mei Lan tapped her slender finger rhythmically on the table as her brilliant mind was thinking deeply.
Silly Fox hesitated for a while before adding: "I think it is almost impossible for a person like him to fall in love so easily with that Sea Beast Princess..."
Instructor Mei Lan nodded in agreement with a solemn expression while saying: "I also think so... The more rational and smart a person is, the harder it is for him to be infatuated with someone."
"If Gu Shengxin really does not fall in love with Princess Yan Fei, it means he has another purpose to get close to her. It seems we must speed up our action before something unfortunate happens to Princess Yan Fei." Instructor Mei Lan murmured as her eyes turned much colder.
Just like their Fox n''s tails and Lizard Race''s blood, the Sea Beast Race also had their own valuable part for humans to use, especially someone with noble blood like Princess Yan Fei.
Silly Fox also nodded with a solemn expression, but then he stared strangely at Instructor Mei Lan.
He felt that Instructor Mei Lan''s previous words were mocking him, but he could not think of which part was offensive to him.
After Silly Fox had done telling the information he got, it was Bingbing''s turn to do it.
"I have already tried to ask many people about Princess Yan Fei today, but no one knows anything about her. It looks like Princess Yan Fei is using another name to approach Gu Shengxin., and she may also hide her identity as the pampered princess of Sea Beast Kingdom." Bingbing said the result of her investigation for today.
The news from Bingbing made Instructor Mei Lan feel a little bit relieved.
At least Princess Yan Fei was not stupid enough to tell everyone that she was the pampered princess from the Sea Beast Kingdom.
Of course, there was still no guarantee that Princess Yan Fei had not told Gu Shengxin her true identity, so they must hurry up and make sure that Princess Yan Fei''s current condition first.
Then Tang Li Xue''s turn came...
Tang Li Xue opened her pink lips, but no words wereing out of her mouth.
After a few moments, she managed to squeeze some words out: "I... have not gotten any important information today¡"
"I am really sorry. Gu Family''s mansion is guarded too tightly that I cannot even find a way to check it out." Tang Li Xue apologized to the others in guilt.
Chapter 692 692: Disguise!
Chapter 692 Chapter 692: Disguise!
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to tell everything she knew to Instructor Mei Lan and the others.
But somehow, she suddenly could not bring herself to say it after seeing Instructor Mei Lan.
Perhaps it was because her hunch told her that Instructor Mei Lan hated Elder Yang very much, so she reflexively hid the truth about Elder Yang from Instructor Mei Lan.
Bingbing hugged Tang Li Xue from behind andforted her by saying with a worried tone: "It is all right, Little Xue~! We all know how difficult it is to look for information about Gu Family''s mansion. If you are not careful, they might catch you and interrogate you forcefully instead. So, you should always remember to remain careful, okay?"
After Silly Fox heard Bingbing''s words, he instantly felt very worried about Tang Li Xue and tried to persuade her: "Ah, how could I never think that far?! That Ice Block is right... It would be really bad if the people from Gu Family''s mansion realized that you were trying to find any information about them. Xue, let''s just exchange our task for tomorrow, okay?"
Even though Silly Fox''s task to find any information about Gu Shengxin was also quite dangerous, but it was clearly not as dangerous as Tang Li Xue''s task.
Tang Li Xue''s heart felt warm after she heard Bingbing and Silly Fox''s worried words.
A dazzling gentle beautiful smile bloomed on her stunning face while staring tenderly at the worried Bingbing and Silly Fox.
Then she shook her head and replied to reassure them: "You two do not need to worry about me. I can use my [Twin Moons] divine ability again starting tomorrow to summon out my perfect copy, so I can just let her look for the information in my stead."
Instructor Mei Lan nodded at Tang Li Xue with a strange smile on her face and said: "Since you have already nned to do so, then I will help you to do it."
Instructor Mei Lan suddenly took out a skin mask, a wig, a set of male clothes, and a document from her space pouch, then shoved all of them to Tang Li Xue.
"Err... Instructor Lan, what are these things for?" Tang Li Xue asked dumbfoundedly.
"Of course, it is to increase the chance of your perfect copy to infiltrate the Gu Family''s mansion and look for Princess Yan Fei there~!" Tang Li Xue replied as she patted Tang Li Xue''s shoulder to encourage her.
"But... But... I do not know how to wear all of these things..." Tang Li Xue reluctantly muttered.
"Do not worry~! I will help your perfect copy wear all of these things tomorrow~! As for this document, this is the legal document for you to officially work as a servant at the Gu Family''s mansion starting tomorrow. You only need to give this document to the gatekeeper or head butler tomorrow." Instructor Mei Lan exined to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue grasped in shock after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation.
She never thought that Instructor Mei Lan could even get a legal job for her to tantly infiltrate the Gu Family''s mansion in just one or two days!
After their discussion session was over, Instructor Mei Lan sent all of her students back to their respective rooms.
When Tang Li Xue entered her room, both Little Loki and Yaya had already fallen asleep.
Tang Li Xue did not n to sleep immediately.
She sat on the chair, took out the document from her space pouch, and read the content to understand more about her job at the Gu Family''s mansion tomorrow.
Tang Li Xue felt a bit disappointed since her position was only the lowest servant, maybe even lower than the servant she interrogated today.
But after pondering it for a while, she changed her mind and thought that this position was pretty good.
At least, her sudden appearance as the lowest servant would not arouse any suspicion from the Gu Family since they really needed more servants at this time to serve those guests from the Immortal Sword Sect.
Moreover, no one would bother to pay any attention to her as the lowest servant, and she might have a lot of time to secretly do many thingster.
Tang Li Xue stored the document back in her space pouch after reading it, and then she went to sleep with Yaya and Little Loki.
The next morning, Yaya woke her up early in the morning as usual.
After taking a quick bath together with Yaya and Little Loki, Tang Li Xue opened the door of her room, but before she went out of her room, Instructor Mei Lan pushed her back into her room instead.
Bingbing and Silly Fox wanted to follow Instructor Mei Lan and entered Tang Li Xue''s room too, but...
BAAANG~!
Instructor Mei Lan did not let them follow her to enter Tang Li Xue''s room. She closed the door of Tang Li Xue''s room and almost hit their faces.
Both Bingbing and Silly Fox could only wait outside with wronged expressions.
"You can summon out your perfect clone now. I will put on the makeup and disguise her to look more like a servant." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue nodded as she waved her hand and used her [Twin Moons] divine ability to summon out her perfect copy.
A perfectly identical figure to Tang Li Xue instantly appeared right in front of Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to sit on the chair and ordered the real Tang Li Xue to take out their disguise props such as a skin mask, a wig, and a set of male clothes.
Instructor Mei Lan took out several other makeup items from her space pouch, and then she started to work.
Yaya, Little Loki, and the real Tang Li Xue carefully observed Instructor Mei Lan doing her work with eyes filled with curiosity.
At first, Instructor Mei Lan undressed Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy until she waspletely naked, then smeared her entire slender body with some kind of lotion.
That lotion made her silky smooth snowy white skin change to be a bit darker and rougher. Of course, it was notpletely dark like Little Loki''s fur, but more like wheatish-colored skin.
It should be the perfect skin color to mingle with the other servants.
It would not be good if her skin was too fair or too dark since it would make her easy to be distinguished from the other servants.
Then Instructor Mei Lan began to wrap Tang Li Xue''s chest with a long bandage tightly while saying: "Luckily, your chest is not that big. If not, it would be impossible for you to disguise as a man."
Tang Li Xue instantly felt offended by Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
''What the hell~! What does that mean?! How can you say my breasts are small?! They are clearly B... I mean Barely C-cup! They are not that small, okay?!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart.
But when she stared at Instructor Mei Lan''s bountiful breasts, she could only stay silent in defeat and sulk alone in the corner of her room while nagging unhappily: ''Tsk~! Just because you have D-cup breasts, it does not mean you can belittle smaller breasts~!''
If Instructor Mei Lan knew what Tang Li Xue was thinking, she would surely scold Tang Li Xue harshly: "Are you stupid or what?! You should remember that we are foxes, not humans ~! How could you think such a vulgar thing like that?!"
After that, Instructor Mei Lan began to tie the perfect copy''s long silky silver hair, then covered her tied silky silver hair and her fluffy silver fox ears with some kind of thin skin-colored cover before putting on the ck-haired wig and tying it to top knot hairstyle.
After making sure everything was in ce, Instructor Mei Lan spread some kind of liquid onto the perfect copy''s face before putting on the skin mask to cover the perfect copy''s face.
Then she helped Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wear the ck-colored male coarse clothes.
The real Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki gaped in awe when they saw the perfect copy''s transformation.
"Woahhh~! Instructor Lan, your disguising skill is so good~! I cannot even recognize her anymore~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in admiration.
The perfect copy''s stunningly beautiful face was reced with an ordinary-looking male face.
But Instructor Mei Lan frowned and shook her head in disappointment while muttering: "Unfortunately, your height is too short. It would be perfect if your height was a bit taller."
Instructor Mei Lan did not mean to belittle Tang Li Xue. She just thought that the average height of a male was around 170cm to 175cm, so it would be better if Tang Li Xue''s height could reach around that because she could blend with others much more easily.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not think so and instantly felt offended again by Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
Tang Li Xue puckered her pink lips in annoyance as sheined again: ''What do you mean I am too short?! My height is around 160cm, okay?! That is clearly an average height for women~!''
Then she immediately realized that Instructor Mei Lan was actually taller than her, maybe around 170cm... Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy instantly fell into depression and suddenly lost all of their motivation to infiltrate the Gu Family''s mansion.
Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to pay any attention to Tang Li Xue''s change of mood as she proceeded to exin the method to change the voice: "You should already know that we essentially have not refined our voice cords yet, so we cannot talk like humans just yet. So, we can only rece it with the [Telepathy] technique. You actually can change your ''voice'' by tweaking your [Telepathy] technique a bit."
Chapter 693 693: Infiltration Plan Begin!
Chapter 693 Chapter 693:?Infiltration n Begin!
Under Instructor Mei Lan''s guidance, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy tried to change their ''voice'' by modifying their [Telepathy] technique.
It only took them a few minutes to have a grip on it.
When Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy tried to talk to others, their voice became 70% more masculine and heavier.
''Two heads are truly far much better than one... If I am alone, I may need more than fifteen minutes to learn this trick.'' Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in amazement.
Then Instructor Mei Lan shoved two other potion bottles onto Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy while exining their functions.
"You can drip this potion to your eyes. It can change the color of your eyes to ck. While the other one is a male perfume to cover your body scent." Instructor Mei Lan said while urging Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to use them.
After the perfect copy dripped the potion onto her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes, her eye color changed into obsidian ck.
Then she sprayed the male perfume onto her body.
The scent of the perfume was a bit repulsive for the perfect copy''s sharp nose, but she must get used to it since it could rece her sweet feminine body scent with man''s sweat.
Instructor Mei Lan checked the appearance of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy once again carefully.
Appearance - Check~!
Voice - Check~!
Body scent - Check~!
Eye color - Check~!
Instructor Mei Lan nodded in satisfaction, then she let Bingbing and Silly Fox enter Tang Li Xue''s room to help her see if there was still a defect in the perfect copy''s disguise.
"Wooooaaahhh~! Is this man really Little Xue''s perfect clone?! I cannot recognize her at all~!" Bingbing eximed in surprise and disbelief.
"So amazing~! Instructor Lan, why don''t you just let us disguise like this each time we enter the city and carry out any mission?" Silly Fox asked Instructor Mei Lan with a curious tone.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes as she replied with a disdainful tone: "Do you really think the total price of all disguise items is cheap?! Are you sure you can afford to buy them every time you carry out a mission?!"
Instructor Mei Lan did not lie to them. The price of all of those potions and skin mask were quite expensive even for her, so how could her three poor students afford to buy them?!
While Silly Fox got reprimanded by Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue also carefully examined her perfect copy''s disguise to make sure everything was already in ce.
Her perfect copy hadpletely transformed into an average-looking man by Instructor Mei Lan, not too ugly but not too handsome either. The appearance that will be easily forgotten even after you take a nce at her for a few moments.
If she mixed with the other servants, no one would probably notice her.
To describe it in one word... Perfect~!
To be more careful, Instructor Mei Lan instructed Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to sneakily go out of the inn alone without anyone noticing her to avoid suspicion.
Of course, that was an easy task for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy since she only needed to activate [Ethereal Form] and pass through the wall behind the inn.
While it was still morning, the perfect copy headed to the Gu Family''s mansion hurriedly, but before she could even approach the Gu Family''s mansion...
"Halt~! This is the Gu Family''s residence! Any person who has no appointment is prohibited from approaching or we will execute you on the spot!" One of the guards in shiny silver armor shouted to warn Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a harsh threatening tone.
"I... I have an appointment here~! I am appointed to work as a new servant starting today~! This document is the proof~!" The perfect copy shouted with a masculine voice she had trained before while showing a timid panicked look.
The guards in shiny silver armor rxed their guard a bit, but they still red suspiciously at the perfect copy while carefully taking the document from the perfect copy''s grasp.
They whispered with each other for a while, and then one of them brought the document into the Gu Family''s mansion to ask the head butler about it.
A few minutester, that guard went out again with the old head butler.
"Are you Pang Xiong?" The old head butler asked with an arrogant tone as if he did not even take Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy seriously, but it made sense since the perfect copy was only a new lowest-ranked servant.
Perfect copy humbly lowered her head while giving a hand salute to the old head butler and replying with a timid voice: "Yes, head butler... I am Pang Xiong. My parents send me to work as a servant here from now on."
The old head butler did not bother to say anything to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, and just let her follow him to enter the Gu Family''s mansion.
The eyes of perfect copy secretly observed her surroundings carefully while following the old head butler closely from behind, so the real Tang Li Xue could make a map and give it to Instructor Mei Lanter.
The old head butler took a set of the Gu family''s servant uniform and an identity badge from his ce, then threw them to the perfect copy.
The old head butler immediately assigned the perfect copy to work in the kitchen since the kitchen was seriously understaffed right now.
Even though those Nascent Soul Stage Elders from Immortal Sword Sect could survive without eating anything for a long time, but Gu Family wanted to always serve them delicious food three times every day.
Moreover, the Gu Family was an extremely rich alchemist family, so they surely had a lot of precious herbs, fruits, vegetables, flowers, and so on.
It was not strange that the Gu Family wanted to make some effort to always satisfy the Nascent Soul Stage Elders from the Immortal Sword Sect and Elder Yang.
Of course, it was not an easy task to do since those precious treasures need a lot of careful processing to make them into food without losing their efficacy.
So, they needed a lot of staff or servants to do it.
That was also the reason why Instructor Mei Lan could easily find a chance to sneak Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to work as a servant in only two days.
When Tang Li Xue stepped into the kitchen, everyone was so busy that they did not even have time to talk to her.
They did not let the perfect copy waste any time to be acquainted with the other servants and instantly threw her to work.
Washing dishes, peeling fruits, cutting onions, fanning the mes under the stone stoves...
She never expected that she would be too busy to even do her real task... She really did not have any time to secretly inspect any ce in this Gu Family''s mansion!
''Cough, cough... Damn it~! I am so tired~! Can we swap for a while please and let me take a rest for one or two hours?'' The perfect copy begged Tang Li Xue pitifully.
''Nope, do you forget that you are the only one who is in disguise? We will instantly be discovered if we swap ces right now.'' Tang Li Xue rejected her perfect copy''s plea without any mercy.
''You heartless bast*rd~! I swear I will never do any infiltration mission again after this!'' The perfect copyined in anger.
Tang Li Xue who sat leisurely in her room while ying with Yaya and Little Loki stopped bothering her perfect copy to do her mission.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue had been so busytely that she did not have time to do some very important things.
One of them was to learn the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]~!
She already had enough Deity Coins to learn the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] after the Foxes Hunting Festival was over, but cultivation techniques such as the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], [Essence Devouring Technique], and so on need a lot of time to study and practice them.
Tang Li Xue opened her window status in her system with her thoughts.
Looking at the total of more than 7000 Deity Coins that she had collected made Tang Li Xue feel really reassured.
*Ding!
[Do you want toprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] with a cost of 1,000 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
"Is there any need to ask?! Of course, Yes~!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she tapped Yes on the option.
A massive amount of information instantly flooded Tang Li Xue''s mind.
Tang Li Xue thought she should have already strong enough since her Spirit stats had already reached her current limit, but it seemed she waspletely wrong.
The [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] contained the extremelyplicatedw of Yin and Yang, so its level was far surpassing even the [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art]!
However, when Tang Li Xueprehended the [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art], it was split into four parts, while this [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] wasprehended all at once!
Tang Li Xue felt an intense splitting headache when the system injected a massive information into her brain.
It felt like her head was going to explode!
¡..
Meanwhile, the chance of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy finally came.
The chef actually ordered the perfect copy to deliver the food to somece!
But when she was on the way to deliver the food... She also got affected by the flooding massive information about [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]?and staggered.
The food she brought with a tray almost fell down, but thankfully, someone suddenly helped her before she fell down and stabilized the tray.
"Are you all right?" A familiar voice resounded from behind the perfect copy.
Chapter 694 694: A Glimpse of [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula]’s Might!
Chapter 694 Chapter 694: A Glimpse of [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]''s Might!
The heart of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy almost jumped out of her chest after she heard this familiar voice.
When the perfect copy turned her head around, she saw the familiar man wearing a pure white robe and a silver mask to cover his face.
The perfect copy hastily took a step back in panic as she quickly lowered her head and apologized timidly: "I am sorry, young master! This servant was not careful and almost got tripped. Um... and thank you very much for your help, young master!"
This was the first time for Tang Li Xue or rather her perfect copy to disguise herself as a servant, so they did not know what they needed to do or say in this awkward situation.
Fortunately, Elder Yang did not think too much about the perfect copy''sck of manner as a lowly servant.
Different from their previous interaction where Elder Yang was very gentle to her, the current Elder Yang looked cold, distant, high, and mighty.
The perfect copy was very unfamiliar with the current Elder Yang as if she was facing apletely different person.
The perfect copy already knew that the current her was only an average-looking lowly servant, not the stunningly beautiful youngdy, but she still felt a bit upset because of Elder Yang''s current behavior toward her.
Meanwhile, Elder Yang currently also felt extremely bewildered.
Normally, he would not even bother to care about what happens to any servant or people near him.
But somehow his body moved by itself to help when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy staggered and almost fell down.
''Come to think of it... Thisd looks a bit like Xiao Bai... At least, their body height is about the same...'' Elder Yang''s mind silently wandered as he stared at the perfect copy intensely.
The perfect copy gulped her saliva nervously as she did not even dare to raise her head to stare back at Elder Yang. She was really afraid that Elder Yang would be able to recognize her.
When Elder Yang recalled that he had not seen Xiao Bai for almost two months already, he suddenly missed her even more and really wanted to meet her so badly.
Unfortunately, he did not have even the slightest clue where he should look for her.
After some time, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could not bear it any longer and called: "Err... Excuse me? Young Master?"
The perfect copy''s voice woke Elder Yang from his daze.
Elder Yang shook his head to clear his mind and muttered absentmindedly: "Just remember to be careful next time..."
After saying that, Elder Yang continued to walk again toward the Gu Shengxin''s courtyard.
The perfect copy heaved a sigh of relief after she saw Elder Yang was gone while muttering: "That was really a close one..."
The perfect copy felt lucky that it was not her real self who had infiltrated the Gu Family''s mansion.
Elder Yang could certainly recognize the real her in an instant because the me of Pride and Blood of Lust as Seven Earthly Desire Spirits could sense each other.
Not to mention, Elder Yang could also somehow sense the ring ne that her real self wore which was called [Huang Family Heirloom Ring].
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy might not have that much resentment toward Elder Yang because of the assassin matter, but it did not mean she decided to forgive Elder Yang andpletely forget about it.
In short, she still did not want to meet with Elder Yang just yet at least for now.
When the perfect copy continued to do her own task to deliver food while taking this chance to scout the entire Gu Family''s mansion, the real Tang Li Xue had digested the massive information about [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] injected by her system.
Tang Li Xue who was sitting in the lotus position on the bed slowly opened her topaz blue eyes while exhaling a turbid breath.
''What an amazing technique~!" Tang Li Xue muttered in amazement.
"But damn it~! The previous headache was too painful, and it almost sent me straight to hell~! System, can you at least make it less painful next time?!" Tang Li Xueined in anger after the amazed feeling was gone.
However, her System had gotten used to Tang Li Xue''s unreasonable request, and it did not bother to give any response at this time.
After getting rid of her lingering fear of the unbearable painful headache and calming down, Tang Li Xue began to practice the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] ording to what she hadprehended.
It was certainly impossible to master the extremelyplicated and profoundw of chaotic Yin and Yang in a short time, so Tang Li Xue could only diligently start to practice from scratch for now.
Just like all babies before they learn how to walk, they have to learn how to crawl first.
All of the spells, secret techniques, cultivation techniques, martial arts, and so on were also the same as that.
In fact, Tang Li Xue was also far frompletely mastering [Essence Devouring Technique] and [Art of Concealment]... She still had to continue to persist in practicing all of them.
As for [Four Basic Immortal Sword Techniques] she hadprehended in Inheritance Ground Tablet before, Tang Li Xue did not n to continue to practice them anymore since she already had much more advanced [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual].
But she must reach the Core Formation Stage first before she can practice [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s Manual].
Not to mention, she also had to practice how to use [Soul ying Sword] and [Divine Soul Forge] in the future after her cultivation at least reached the Nascent Soul Stage.
And she also surely could not abandon her learning and practicing as an Inscriptionist...
At first, Tang Li Xue had some desire to be an Alchemist too since she thought it was pretty cool, and almost all protagonists in novels be Alchemist.
Imagining herself pping those old veteran alchemists while concocting high-level pills with her eyes closed really sounded tempting.
But now? Tsk~! Forget it...
Her schedule was already too packed even without any lesson about Alchemist...
Furthermore, the Alchemist was the money-burning profession at the beginning!
Even that well-known one-in-thousand-years genius alchemist, Gu Shengxin, should have already failed at least thousands of times in concocting any pills and wasted hundreds of thousands of precious resources to reach his current level.
How could a pauper like Tang Li Xue withstand such consumption?!
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment as she muttered: "Sure enough, everything in the novels could not be trusted at all."
When Tang Li Xue checked her window status in her system again, she realized a change in it.
[Cultivation Technique: Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art (Crimson Phoenix, ck Tortoise, White Tiger), Yin and Yang Chaotic Form.]
There was actually [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] in the Cultivation Technique''s column right now.
But different from [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] which could only make Tang Li Xue reach the Nascent Soul Stage, [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] which contains the profoundw of chaotic Yin and Yang could help Tang Li Xue reach much higher cultivation level, even be a deity or immortal was not impossible.
"The profoundw of chaotic Yin and Yang contained in [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] is too vast andplicated... I should narrow it down and choose one to practice first..." Tang Li Xue concluded.
What was the profoundw of chaotic Yin and Yang?
It was thew of extreme pr such as fast and slow, heat and cold, good and evil, and so on.
After pondering it carefully for a while, Tang Li Xue decided to practice thew of heat and cold first to be more easy.
The reason was because she already had me of Pride which should have contained thew of extreme heat, so she only needed to practice the other opposite one, thew of cold.
If she managed to skillfully control thew of heat and cold, she could reverse the extreme heat of her me of Pride and turn it to extreme cold to instantly freeze her opponent to death!
Tang Li Xue eagerly sat still in the lotus position and closed her topaz blue eyes again as she began to practice the?[Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], the chapter about thew of heat and cold.
Without her realizing it, the deep blue me of Pride began to light around her body by itself as the extreme heat started to spread around her room.
The temperature of the entire inn began to rise rapidly in the blink of an eye.
All the people inside the inn felt unbearable, and they fell into a panic, then they quickly ran out of the inn.
But the extremely high temperature suddenly fell again, and the entire inn was instantly covered in a thinyer of frost.
This phenomenon was so strange that everyone who saw it felt unreal.
Chapter 695 695: Princess Yan Fei?
Chapter 695 Chapter 695: Princess Yan Fei?
The spreading coldness was not as intense as the previous extremely high temperature and almost all cultivators could resist it.
Many of the curious cultivators nned to check the source of the strangeness in the inn.
Some of them even have a greedy evil thought that if there was a supreme treasure hidden in the inn, they would snatch or rob it at all cost, then run away from this Garden City as soon as possible.
But the coldness suddenly changed again to an extremely unbearable high temperature.
It made those curious and greedy cultivators who fearlessly approached the inn hastily scatter and retreat in fright since the extremely high temperature almost roasted them alive.
Meanwhile, Little Loki and Yaya, who should be guarding Tang Li Xue at this moment, fell into a panic when they saw themotion created by Tang Li Xue''s cultivation.
They wanted to wake up and warn Tang Li Xue about it, but they were also afraid that Tang Li Xue would be fatally injured if they interrupted her right now.
BAAANG~!
At this time, someone actually forcefully kicked open the door of Tang Li Xue''s room...
Both Little Loki and Yaya instantly raised their guard to the maximum to protect the defenseless Tang Li Xue.
Who knew that the person who kicked open the door was actually Instructor Mei Lan?!
Instructor Mei Lan did not pay any attention to Yaya and Little Loki as she strode toward Tang Li Xue and...
BOOOOOMM~!
Instructor Mei Lan''s fistnded heavily on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head!
"OUUCHH~! Damn it~! Who the hell dares to..." Tang Li Xue jumped down from her bed and shouted angrily, but she immediately stopped halfway when she saw Instructor Mei Lan who folded her arms and stood in front of her with a cold expression.
"Do you know what kind ofmotion you just created?" Instructor Mei Lan asked with a chilling voice.
Tang Li Xue lowered her head in guilt while shaking her head in ignorance.
"Not only did you almost burn down this entire inn, to make it worse you also show such a weird phenomenon as alternating hot and cold. We will be in deep trouble if someone guesses that you hold some kind of supreme treasure! Do you know that?!" Instructor Mei Lan scolded Tang Li Xue harshly while angrily tapping her index finger on Tang Li Xue''s forehead.
"Eh? Wha... What?! EEEHH?!?I... I am very sorry, Instructor Lan~! I really do not know it will be like this..." Tang Li Xue eximed in shock and hastily apologized to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and said with an urging tone: "We do not have much time. Those people will surely search this entire inn soon. We must quickly get out of this inn without anyone knowing now.?Let''s go~!"
Tang Li Xue nodded at Instructor Mei Lan with a solemn expression as she also quickly brought Little Loki and Yaya with her.
It was extremely easy for them to sneakily get out of the inn without anyone realizing it.
After they went quite far away from the inn, Instructor Mei Lan interrogated what was Tang Li Xue doing to cause such a hugemotion.
Tang Li Xue told honestly to Instructor Mei Lan that she had obtained a new secret technique before and tried to practice it in her room today since she did not have any tasks to do right now.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not say anything in detail about the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] since it would have been bad if Instructor Mei Lan questioned her about the origin of her [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form].
[Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] was deduced by her own System after all, and her System was her biggest secret. No one should know about it!
Instructor Mei Lan put both of her fists on Tang Li Xue''s right and left temple, then ground her fists forcefully until Tang Li Xue screamed in pain.
"AAAAHHH~! OUCH~! PAIN~! OUCH~! PAIN~! I am sorry, Instructor Lan~! I will never do it again, so please let me go~!" Tang Li Xue begged pitifully.
"Are you stupid or what?! How could you think to practice your secret technique inside the inn''s room?! It is alreadymon sense that anyone must rent a cultivation cave if anyone wants to practice any spell, martial art, or secret technique!" Instructor Mei Lan let Tang Li Xue go and scolded her again for her incurable stupidity.
"Eh? So, I must rent a cultivation cave to practice? Why did I never hear anything about this until now?" Tang Li Xue muttered in embarrassment.
Instructor Mei Lan almost fainted on the spot in anger because of Tang Li Xue''s ignorance.
It was true that she never told her students about this before, but she thought they would have already known about it after going out of Myriad Foxes Academy a few times to carry out their missions.
Especially Tang Li Xue, since she had already traveled alone to participate in Inheritance Ground Tablet before.
But Instructor Mei Lan still patiently brought Tang Li Xue and went to the luxurious building to rent a cultivation cave.
Tang Li Xue did not expect that there would be so many cultivatorse and go from this ce.
Both Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue entered the luxurious building together and approached the clerk behind the counter.
Instructor Mei Lan called the clerk first: "Excuse me, I want to rent a cultivation cave."
"Wee, two young miss~! There are four levels of cultivation cave you can rent".
The price of a low-grade cultivation cave is 50 low-tier spirit stones per hour."
The price of a mid-grade cultivation cave is 150 low-tier spirit stones per hour."
The price of a high-grade cultivation cave is 300 low-tier spirit stones per hour."
The price of a VIP-grade cultivation cave is 1000 low-tier spirit stones or 1 mid-tier spirit stone per hour."
"Which grade do you want to rent and how long do you want to rent it?"
The beautiful female clerk politely exined with a professional gentle smile on her face.
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in disbelief as she almost slipped and fell down after she heard the outrageous price from the clerk''s mouth.
Just so you know, the price of the inn that Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the others were staying at right now was only 5 low-tier spirit stones per day!
But the renting price of the cheapest low-grade cultivation cave was actually 50 low-tier spirit stones per hour... Yes, it was per hour, not per day!
''What the hell?! She... She is kidding me, right? Did she make a mistake just now? It should be per day, not per hour, right?" Tang Li Xue thought skeptically.
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xue and asked: "There you go~! You can tell this clerk which cultivation cave grade you want to rent and for how long?"
Tang Li Xue''s body instantly stiffened as she awkwardly replied: "I suddenly think that I am already pretty good. Yes, I am already strong enough, so I do not want to practice anymore. Let''s go back, Instructor Lan~!"
Tang Li Xue turned around and hastily walked out of the cultivation cave leasing building as if she was afraid that the clerk would still force her to pay even though she did not want to rent any cultivation cave.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled mischievously while quickly chasing after Tang Li Xue from behind.
Instructor Mei Lan already knew that Tang Li Xue definitely would not want to rent any cultivation cave after she knew the price from the very beginning, but at least this would be a lesson that Tang Li Xue would never forget in the future.
On the way, Instructor Mei Lan exined to Tang Li Xue why the price of renting a cultivation cave was very expensive.
"All cultivation caves are installed with spiritual energy gathering formation and protection formation, so it is not strange that their renting price is very expensive."
"The daily maintenance cost of those formations is quite costly after all."
"But because of those formations, you do not need to be afraid of being detected or spied at by anyone when you practiceter. You also do not need to worry that you will identally burn and destroy something because the protection formation will also protect the cultivation cave from inside."
"More advanced cultivation caves such as high-level or VIP-level even have fire cultivation rooms, water cultivation rooms, wind cultivation rooms, and so on which are very suitable for practicing the matching elemental techniques."
"VIP-level cultivation caves are even equipped with metal puppets for sparring in actual battle."
"In short, do not think it is too expensive because it is actually worth the price."
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy finally spotted a young girl in a light blue dress after she delivered food to more than a dozen ces.
The young girl in a light blue dress was riding a boat in theke with her maid.
Even though Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still not quite sure yet, but the hunch said that this young girl should be her target to save, Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei!
The perfect copy immediately tried to think of a way to get close to the young girl in a light blue dress.
Chapter 696 696: Got Crippled!
Chapter 696 Chapter 696: Got Crippled!
Just when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still thinking of a quick way to get close to the young girl in a light blue dress, an unexpected ident suddenly happened!
SPLAAAASH~!
The young girl''s small boat was shaking violently all of a sudden, and her small boat actually capsized in the middle of theke!
The young girl and her maid fell into theke!
"AHHH~! Heeeelp~! Anyone... Heeeelp~!" The maid screamed in panic.
''This is it~! My chance has finallye~!'' The perfect copy eximed excitedly as she jumped into theke to save the young girl.
Previously, Instructor Mei Lan had already warned that her disguising lotion might wear off if she got drenched in water, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy decided to create a transparent barrier to wrap her entire body with her [Energy Maniption] before she jumped into theke.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy actually had many ways to save the young girl without entering theke, but her current identity was only a lowly servant without any cultivation, so she could only use the mostmon way like an ordinary mortal.
Because she must hold back all of her strength and only showed the strength of an ordinary on the surface, the perfect copy swam very slowly to the middle of theke.
It took a lot of effort for her to pull the drowned young girl and her maid onto thekeside.
However, both the drowned young girl and her maid had already fallen unconscious after the perfect copy saved them.
"Err... Now what I should do next? Give them CPR?" The perfect copy murmured with a reluctant tone while frowning deeply.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly realized that she might have guessed wrong this time, and this drowned girl might not be Princess Yan Fei.
How could the Sea Beast Princess almost drown to death in the smallke, right?! It was as ridiculous as an immortal cultivator getting choked to death by breathing the fresh air.
After hesitating for a while, the perfect copy gnashed her pearl-white teeth as she decided to save both the drowned girl and her maid since she had already saved both of them anyway.
The perfect copy carefully checked their breath first, the maid was still breathing weakly, but she could no longer feel the young girl''s breath.
The perfect copy decided to perform CPR to save the young girl first.
The perfect copy pushed the drowned girl''s chest 30 times, but when she almost put her mouth onto the young girl''s mouth, the young girl suddenly opened her eyes.
The eyes of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and the eyes of the young girl met with each other for a moment.
PPUUUFFF~!
The perfect copy wanted to apologize in panic, but the young girl actually spurted out a few mouthfuls of water from her mouth to the perfect copy''s face.
Luckily, the perfect copy still had not removed the transparent barrier that wrapped her entire body yet.
Before the perfect copy could say anything, several guards had alreadye and asked: "Who shouted just now? You... Young Miss~! Are you all right?"
"Catch this pervert~! Right now~!" The young girl screamed while sniffling with a wronged expression as if she had been molested by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"No, Young Miss~! I am very sorry, but I swear I have no other intention! I only want to save you just now!" The perfect copy quickly apologized and exined.
Unfortunately, the young girl and the guards did not bother to listen to the perfect copy''s exnation.
Several guards immediately arrested Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and dragged her into the dark dungeon.
She was interrogated harshly inside the dark dungeon as if she were a criminal.
No one believed her even though Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already told them honestly that she only wanted to save the young girl before.
On the contrary, several guards used her of molesting the young girl and punished her by hitting both of her arms with iron staff fifty times.
If she was really an ordinary mortal, both of her hands would be disabled by that punishment.
Despite that, Tang Li Xue still faced a lot of difficulty in this punishment...
The most difficult one was that she needed to control some of her divine abilities carefully, such as her [Sun And Moon Aegis], so it would not reflect back 25% of their attack as pure damage and injured the guards who beat her arms instead.
"AAAAHHH~! IT IS HURT~! STOP IT~! PLEASE, FORGIVE ME~!" Tang Li Xue screamed out loud in pain as her face was covered with tears and snot.
Well... She also needed to scream in pain, put on a grimace expression, and fearful look while giving a bit of struggle to make her painful act look real even though she did not even feel itch at all.
What a joke... How could a mere iron staff hurt her?!
Her [Sun And Moon Aegis] had increased her overall defense by 100%, reduced any damage she received by 30%, and nullified any damage under 1000 points, not to mention she also had the damage reduction and [Arcane Shroud] effect from her [Arcane Tunic], so unless they have at least Core Formation Stage cultivation and beat her up using a high-grade treasured weapon, she would remain unscathed.
She suddenly thought that she might be able to win an Oscar if she transmigrated back to her previous world.
Then Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly realized another problem after her arms had been beaten more than ten times...
There was not even a sign of bruising on her arms at this moment!
Those guards would definitely suspect something was not right if her arms still remained as usual after they had beaten her arms fifty timester!
Her mind was thinking fast to find a quick solution for this...
In the end, the perfect copy could only grit her pearl-white teeth as she decided to use her [Sharp Edge Power] on their iron staff!
Their iron staff instantly turned into a treasured de in an instant after it was imbued by [Sharp Edge Power].
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
It chopped the perfect copy''s arms leaving some shallow wounds but at least they looked bloody.
''Great~! It really works~!'' The perfect copy sighed in relief.
Then another problem has urred...
Her [High-Speed Regeneration] immediately worked and the shallow wounds were cured in the blink of an eye without leaving any scars.
''Damn it~! Even this is not working~!'' The perfect copy thought in disappointment.
Without any other choice, the perfect copy could only use herst option...
She decided to use her [Eyes of Illusion] on these guards, so she would look half-crippled with broken arms in front of their eyes.
At first, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy really did not want to use any of her skills or divine abilities here since this ce was inside the Gu Family''s mansion.
There was no guarantee that there were no Nascent Soul Stage experts monitoring their every move in this ce with their divine sense.
Unfortunately, she really did not have a choice right now...
After beating her to ''half-dead'', the guards threw her into a dirty prison.
''Now what should I do? It seems our infiltration n had already failed. Should I just use [Ethereal Form] to escape from this dungeon and look for Princess Yan Fei tonight?'' The perfect copy asked the real Tang Li Xue through their connection.
The real Tang Li Xue stopped practicing [Essence Devouring Technique] in her room and began to ponder their next move carefully.
Before Tang Li Xue could decide their next move, the perfect copy suddenly sensed that someone sneaked closer to her prison, so she immediately put on a miserable look.
"Hey, why did you save that annoying vixen?" A feminine voice asked from outside the prison.
The perfect copy''s heart shuddered slightly when she heard someone say something about ''vixen''.
The perfect copy slowly raised her head and found that it was actually another young girl who asked her.
She has a pair of bright eyes and a delicate youthful face. Her age might be around 16-17 years old.
The perfect copy pretended not to understand and asked back with a weak voice: "What... do you mean, Young Miss? I do not understand..."
The young girl rolled her eyes and exined: "I have already been waiting for that time to push down that annoying vixen into theke. Why do you save her?!"
The perfect copy''s expression changed after she heard the young girl''s words, and muttered in confusion: "Young Miss, how could you do something cruel like that? You almost killed that girl and her maid!"
"Humph~! So what?! That annoying vixen has a really nasty personality. Look~! She even crippled your hands after you saved her life! You still have the nerve to stand up for her~?! You are so stupid!" The young girl scolded Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Chapter 697 697: Kind Tsundere Young Lady!
Chapter 697 Chapter 697: Kind Tsundere Young Lady!
The perfect copy immediately understood that this young girl definitely had some deep feud with the previous drowned girl.
She actually did not care about their feud at all, but she thought that she might be able to use this to get out of this bad situation.
A trace of cunning light shed in the perfect copy''s eyes as she quickly put on a miserable sorrowful expression and said with a sobbing voice: "I... I am so sorry, Young Miss... I did not know that drowneddy was such a vicious person. If only I knew it earlier, I would not... Sob... Sob... I really regret it right now."
The young girl sighed as she stared at the miserable Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a pair of eyes full of pity.
"All right, stop crying~! You are a man, right?! How could a man cry so easily?! Don''t worry, I will do something to help you get out of this prison!" The young girl said with an annoyed tone and expression.
As someone who was facing a hardcore tsundere (Little Loki) every day, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could easily see that this young girl was also the same type.
Her mouth might be harsh, but she clearly has a kind and caring heart.
The young girl took out something from her sleeve and threw it at the perfect copy while exining: "This is a healing pill. The effect might be mediocre for any immortal cultivator, but it should be very good for an ordinary mortal like you. I even might be able to cure your broken hands by tomorrow if you swallow it now."
"Thank... Thank you... very much, Young Miss... You are so kind to me." The perfect copy replied with a touched expression while crawling toward the healing pill and eating it directly with her mouth since both of her hands were still ''broken''.
"Okay... You... Wait for me." The young girl nodded at the perfect copy and hastily ran out from the dark dungeon. It seemed she was really determined to help Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to get out of the prison.
PTUI~!
After making sure that the young girl was already gone from there, the perfect copy spat out the healing pill again.
Even though she believed that the tsundere young girl would not give any poison to her, and she was alsopletely immune to any poison, but she was still perfectly healthy right now, so she did not want to eat any medicine.
"I hope she really can do something to get me out of here quickly~! This prison smells so bad~! I feel like I will lose my appetite for a few days if I stay here tonight." The perfect copyined as she sat and leaned back on the prison''s wall.
''Stopining~! It would not be funny if you got kicked out from there in less than one day! I do not want to face Instructor Lan''s wrath if it really happens.'' The real Tang Li Xue rebuked her perfect copy.
''Oh, well... I guess you are right. At least, I still have some chance to stay a little bit longer in the Gu Family''s mansion and get more important information from hereter.'' The perfect copy replied while shrugging her shoulder helplessly.
Of course, the perfect copy was still very unconvinced deep in her heart.
Why the hell did she have to suffer all of these things alone while her real self was practicing leisurely in the cozy inn room?!
This is very unfair, right?!
Are there anyws to protect the clone''s right out there?!
I really want to file aint right now~! I want to sue my real self for abusing me!
Tang Li Xue''s expression instantly turned dark as she angrily sent her thought: ''Hey, hey, hey~! Why the hell are you thinking like that?!''
''I did not say anything...'' The perfect copy replied with a t tone.
''But your mind always thinking about suing me~! Besides that, I am practicing diligently to make us stronger, right? How could you say I am practicing leisurely like I am on vacation?!'' Tang Li Xue angrily argued back.
When Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy quarrel with each other like a pair of overgrown children, the young girl had alreadye back to the dark dungeon again with a guard.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastilyy down on the cold floor of the prison again and put back her miserable look.
The guard took out a bundle of keys and opened the prison''s door, then the young girl hastily helped the perfect copy to get out of the prison.
"Thank... Thank you very much, Young Miss... You are so kind to me. I do not know anymore how to repay your kindness." The perfect copy murmured with a sobbing voice mixed with a grateful tone.
The young girl humphed and replied in an annoyed tone: "Just make sure that you will not interfere with my deed next time, or I will not help you out anymore!"
"I am so sorry, young miss... Can you please let me know your name, so I can try to repay for your kindness in the future?" The perfect copy asked the young girl.
"My name is Zhu Yan. You can call me Miss Zhu Yan from now on." The young girl generously gave her name.
Zhu Yan helped Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to walk until they reached the young girl''s courtyard.
Then Zhu Yan let the perfect copy rest in one of the unupied rooms in her courtyard.
Zhu Yan even ordered her maid to call one of the male servants to help the perfect copy clean and bandage the wounds on her hands.
Even though the perfect copy already tried to reject her ''kindness'', Zhu Yan still insisted on the male servant helping the perfect copy to handle her wounds.
Without any other choice, the perfect copy could only ept Zhu Yan''s ''kindness'' again...
When the male servant tried to clean the wounds on her hands, the perfect copy used her [Eyes of Illusion] on the male servant, so the male servant would see the hideous wounds on her arms.
After cleaning and bandaging her arms, the male servant went back to do his own job again while Zhu Yan let Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rest in that unupied room for a day.
.....
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after her perfect copy managed to get out of prison thanks to Zhu Yan''s help.
''It is so boring to lie on the bed like a sick person. Should I start to wander around using [Ethereal Form] to look for any information about Princess Yan Fei right now?'' The perfect copy asked for Tang Li Xue''s opinion.
Tang Li Xue pondered carefully and decided: ''No, let''s be more careful from now on. Besides, it is almost dark. The security will definitely be much tighter at night, so you can just take a rest for today. Didn''t youin that I just rxed in my room before? Now you can also rx in that room.''
''Ey, you still care about that~?! I am just kidding, okay?!'' The perfect copy replied with a yful tone.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes, and she did not bother to argue with her shameless perfect copy anymore since Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox had alreadye back to the inn.
Actually, they already changed to the other inn after Tang Li Xue''s previous incident in order for the others to not suspect them.
Instructor Mei Lan instructed them to move to an inn located much closer to the Gu Family''s mansion, so Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy couldmunicate with each other more easily.
But it was actually because Instructor Mei Lan still did not know that the current range of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy tomunicate and swap with each other was much farther than before since their Spirit Stat had grown many times higherpared to before they participated in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
Right now, Instructor Mei Lan already called Tang Li Xue to attend the meeting in her room as usual.
After they gathered in Instructor Mei Lan''s room, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox began to tell any information they managed to obtain today.
Silly Fox did not get much information about Gu Shengxin anymore today, but at least he already obtained some clues about Gu Shengxin''s behavior yesterday.
Of course, the information Silly Fox got like the ces Gu Shengxin usually visited, and any people he usually associated with were actually quite crucial too.
However, the information that Bingbing obtained today was the one that attracted Tang Li Xue''s interest the most at this moment.
"After asking so many shopkeepers from the shops near the Gu Family''s mansion, I managed to get some information about all the women with high status living in the Gu Family''s mansion. I am sure one of them should be Princess Yan Fei~!" Bingbing proudly said.
Chapter 698 698: Mirror of Revelation!
Chapter 698 Chapter 698: Mirror of Revtion!
Not only did Instructor Mei Lan feel interesting, but even Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glowing with strong curiosity.
After all, the information obtained by Bingbing might be able to make the task of her perfect copy much easierter.
Bingbing cleared her throat and began to tell the information she got today.
"ording to those shopkeepers, there are a total of four women with high status living in the Gu Family''s mansion. Those shopkeepers admit that they must show their utmost respect, fawning, and ttering to those women every time theye to their stores."
"The first two women are Gu Shengxin''s mother, Li Fuyun, and Gu Shengxin''s younger sister, Gu Xianying. It should be impossible for Princess Yan Fei to disguise herself as them. So, we can exclude them."
"The other two women are called Zhu Yan and Ling Shuang. Their true identities are still unclear; even shopkeepers do not know their origin. But these two women have an ambiguous rtionship with Gu Shengxin."
"I think we can first start by investigating these two girls, Zhu Yan and Ling Shuang. I am sure one of them is actually Princess Yan Fei in disguise."
Bingbing concluded her speech and sat back down while sipping warm tea to moisten her dry throat.
Tang Li Xue secretly pondered curiously for a while: ''I wonder who is the ungrateful drowned girl that my perfect copy saved today? Li Fuyun, Gu Xianying, or Ling Shuang? It seems I must ask this to Zhu Yan tomorrow.''
Of course, her perfect copy could also use the basic [All Knowing Eyes] on all the people she met wantonly to quickly find the real Princess Yan Fei, but she would definitely be discovered soon enough, and be caught by those Nascent Soul Stage Experts.
Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head to deny that idea.
Her perfect copy''s mission was not only to find Princess Yan Fei but also to do something secretly to make her hate Gu Shengxin and make her willingly go back to her home.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply as she began to say: "Our investigation is going too slow. We must speed up our progress and find Princess Yan Fei soon."
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox stared at Instructor Mei Lan in confusion.
They just arrived in Garden City for a few days. There should be no need for them to be that anxious, right? Since Princess Yan Fei should have already lived in Garden City for at least a few months, she should not be in any danger as long as her identity as Sea Beast Princess was not discovered by anyone.
Silly Fox could not hold back his curiosity and asked: "Instructor Lan, will Princess Yan Fei''s life be in danger soon?"
Instructor Mei Lan nodded her head and exined: "You three should have already known that more than a dozen Nascent Soul Stage Elders from Immortal Sword Sect just arrived in this Garden City yesterday, and they currently lived in Gu Family''s mansion."
"Each of them holds a treasure called the Mirror of Revtion. Its function is to uncover all disguises and reveal the true form. If they use it to check Princess Yan Fei, her identity as Sea Beast Princess would definitely be exposed."
The expressions of Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox instantly changed to solemn mixed with worry.
The existence of this Mirror of Revtion was clearly bad news for all of them, including Princess Yan Fei.
Bingbing could not help butin in annoyance: "Aren''t those people too cautious and well prepared?! How can each of them carry an important treasure like that everywhere?"
Instructor Mei Lan stared at Tang Li Xue for a few moments, but she did not say anything.
Tang Li Xue shrugged her shoulder obliviously when she saw Instructor Mei Lan''s intense ming stare while saying: "What? Is this my fault too? It should be impossible, right?"
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes but she still did not bother to exin it clearly to Tang Li Xue.
Well... If not for an extremely charming vixen seducing someone else''s groom, then how could all of those Nascent Soul Stage Elders from Immortal Sword Sect carry that Mirror of Revtion everywhere?!
After that, it was Tang Li Xue''s turn to tell what had happened to her perfect copy to everyone today.
Bingbing and Silly Fox mored in hatred at the ungrateful drowned girl and swore to teach her a harsh lesson if they met with herter.
Instructor Mei Lan did not say much, and she only told Tang Li Xue to let her perfect copy have more closer connection with more people, so her perfect copy could easily move around in the Gu Family''s mansion without being suspectedter.
After instructing each of her students about their next task, Instructor Mei Lan dismissed their meeting and let her three students go back to their respective rooms to rest.
However, Tang Li Xue did not n to just go back to her room and rest tonight since she had already enough rest in her room today.
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and Yaya to eat their dinner on the first floor of the inn.
After all of them felt full, Tang Li Xue took them to the cultivation cave leasing building.
Yes, Tang Li Xue nned to rent a cultivation cave and spend tonight practicing the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] instead.
The price of renting a cultivation cave was really outrageous, but Tang Li Xue could only grit her pearl-white teeth in frustration and decided to rent low-grade cultivation cave for eight hours.
Eight hours should be enough for her to practice the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] until the next morning.
The price of a low-grade cultivation cave was 50 low-tier spirit stones per hour, so Tang Li Xue paid 400 low-tier spirit stones to the leasing clerk in great heartache.
Previously, Tang Li Xue extorted 2 mid-tier spirit stones from her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], which was equal to 2,000 low-tier spirit stones.
At first, Tang Li Xue thought that should be enough for her tost until next week, and her [Golden Winged Serpent] would produce another wave of spirit stones again by then.
But right now, her 2,000 low-tier spirit stones had already shrunk to 1,400 low-tier spirit stones in two days...
If she rented this low-grade cultivation cave every night for eight hours to practice the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], her 1,500 low-tier spirit stones could onlyst for another three days...
It meant Tang Li Xue would be penniless for two days before her [Golden Winged Serpent] could produce spirit stones again...
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead as she muttered: "Forget it... It seems I really cannot be too extravagant and rent this low-grade cultivation cave for eight hours every night."
When Tang Li Xue entered the low-grade cultivation cave she had rented, she was amazed by how luxurious the decorations and furniture were.
Little Loki and Yaya began to wander around the low-grade cultivation cave curiously.
Tang Li Xue shook her head as she activated all the formations in this low-grade cultivation cave and sat on the meditation cushion at the center of the cave.
The spiritual energy around them instantly thickened several times. This should be the effect of spiritual energy gathering formation.
The entire cave was also lit as the entire protective formations activated, so no one could peek inside, and Tang Li Xue''s aura would also not leak outside.
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes and began to practice the profoundw of heat and cold from the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form].
Even though Tang Li Xue only practiced this profoundw of heat and cold once for a very short time yesterday, but she had already thought a lot about it until now.
Yesterday, Tang Li Xue thought that she only needed to practice the profoundw of cold since her me of Pride already contained the profoundw of heat, but she immediately realized that her idea waspletely wrong.
Just like the name of the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], it meant Yin and Yang have to co-exist with each other!
How could she foolishly think to practice only one part before?!
That was also the reason why her cultivation had gone wrong yesterday and caused that abnormal phenomenon.
Right now, she would not repeat that mistake and decided to practice both the profoundw of cold and the profoundw of heat at the same time.
However, Tang Li Xue immediately bumped into a difficult problem just as she began to practice.
Practicing both the profoundw of cold and the profoundw of heat at the same time was actually far more difficult than she had ever imagined!
It was like trying to solve a difficult math problem with her right hand while solving a difficult physics problem with her left hand at the same time!
But the good news was that her control over her me of Pride was actually increasing as she practiced this profoundw of heat and cold!
At this rate, she might be able topletely control her me of Pride like her own arm and fingerter!
Without realizing it, eight hours had passed in the blink of an eye for Tang Li Xue, and the sun had already begun to rise from the west.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes and exhaled a turbid breath.
Tang Li Xue tried to open the window status in her system to see if there was any improvement.
Chapter 699 699: Dispute!
Chapter 699 Chapter 699: Dispute!
The good news was that Tang Li Xue''s cultivation level had improved from the 1st to the 2nd level of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
It was only a small improvement, but Tang Li Xue was very pleased about it since it meant that practicing the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] could also increase her cultivation level.
As for the bad news, it was¡
Cultivation Technique: Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art (Crimson Phoenix, ck Tortoise, White Tiger), Yin and Yang Chaotic Form (Profound Law of Heat and Cold [0.02%]).
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and disbelief when she saw 0.02% behind the Profound Law of Heat and Cold.
"What the heck~?! I have already been practicing for more than eight hours sincest night, and you are telling me that I have only mastered 0.02% of the Profound Law of Heat and Cold?! Are you kidding me?!" Tang Li Xue stood up from the meditation cushion and scolded with an angry expression.
0.02% for eight hours... Doesn''t it mean she would have to practice for more than 40,000 hours to reach 100%?!
Even if she practices 8 hours every day, it would take her around 5 years topletely master the Profound Law of Heat and Cold.
Tang Li Xue almost fell into despair after she realized it.
Well... Actually, 5 years topletely master the Profound Law of Heat and Cold was not that long.
If the other immortal cultivators heard it, their eyes would probably turn green with envy since even someone with highprehension might need several decades topletely master one Profound Law.
Not to mention, the Profound Laws of Heat and Cold in the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] not only contained 2 types of Profound Laws but also contained the essence of the Profound Law of Chaotic Yin and Yang. So, it should be much more difficult to masterpared to the other Profound Laws such as Profound Laws of Wind, Profound Laws of Lightning, and so on.
"No way~! I cannot wait for that long~! There are many other Profound Laws contained in the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] such as fast and slow, light and heavy, weak and strong, and so on. If it takes 5 years to master one of them, does it mean it will take at least more than 50 years to master them all?!" Tang Li Xue muttered as her expression turned gloomy.
Tang Li Xue walked back and forth restlessly as her mind thought deeply to find some ways to improve her speed to master this Profound Law of Heat and Cold.
Surprisingly, she actually managed to find three methods in only a few minutes...
The first problem was that practicing both the profoundw of heat and cold at the same time was too difficult, so the efficiency was much lower than she had ever expected.
It was like trying to solve a difficult math problem with her right hand while solving a difficult physics problem with her left hand at the same time.
But that was not a big problem for Tang Li Xue...
Doesn''t she have two brains, her own brain and her perfect copy''s brain? So, if she and her perfect copy were practicing this Profound Law of Heat and Cold at the same time, the efficiency would definitely be increased more than twice as fast asst night.
The second method was by taking the [Comprehension Pill] sold in her System mall.
She could even be proficient enough in using [Essense Devouring Technique] after she only took one [Comprehension Pill] when she practiced [Essense Devouring Technique] before.
Just so you know, Tang Li Xue only practiced [Essense Devouring Technique] for less than 20 hours before participating in the Foxes Hunting Festival, but she actually managed to use this [Essense Devouring Technique] quite well in thepetition.
If she also took this [Comprehension Pill] while practicingter, her mastery of the Profound Law of Heat and Cold would certainly improve greatly.
The third method was... Of course, it was to evolve into a higher-grade beast!
Each time she evolved, Tang Li Xue realized that her learning ability andprehension would improve to some extent.
It means her efficiency in practicing the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] would be increased every time she evolved to a higher-grade beast.
As for how fast it would be, Tang Li Xue still did not know for sure...
The fastest way to confirm it was for her to evolve into [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox] as soon as possible.
"The first method is the most feasible, but I must wait until my perfect copypleted her task first since she would certainly be discovered if she dared to practice the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] in the Gu Family''s Mansion."
"As for the second method... My current Deity Coins are only enough to buy two [Comprehension Pill] at most. But Deity Coins have many uses, so I do not dare to spend it carelessly. Oh, well... Let''s just wait until it umtes more before spending some of it to buy [Comprehension Pill]..."
"The third method... Sigh, there is no need to think too much about it for now."
Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation as she brought Little Loki and Yaya out of the cultivation cave and walked back to their inn.
Precious treasures that contained star energies were extremely rare, and Tang Li Xue needed to consume a lot of them, then store the star energies in the body until reached more than 999.
For the current penniless Tang Li Xue, that was an impossible thing to do right now.
How could she find that many spirit stones to buy so many precious treasures that contain star energies?!
Then a sh of inspiration shed in Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes as she muttered: "Or... Wait a minute... Why do I need to buy them? Gu Family is an extremely rich alchemist family, so they should have stored quite a lot of precious treasures with star energies in their warehouse, right?"
An extremely dazzling smile enough to charm all beings had bloomed on Tang Li Xue''s stunningly beautiful face, but unfortunately, what she currently thinks was far from beautiful.
.....
Meanwhile, her perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes in disdain when she found out what her true self was currently thinking.
"Oops, I almost forgot to use the eye drops given by Instructor Lan." The perfect copy took a potion bottle from her sleeve and dripped the liquid inside the bottle into her eyes.
In that instant, her bewitching topaz blue eyes changed into low-key obsidian ck eyes.
Then she created a mirror using her [Energy Maniption] to check if there were still some ws in her disguise.
After making sure that her disguise was already perfect, she dissolved the mirror and walked out of the room to meet with Zhu Yan.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Yan was currently arguing fiercely with someone in front of the gate of her courtyard.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned deeply because the topic of their dispute was actually her.
"Zhu Yan, quickly bring that pervert servant out! She dared to touch my body yesterday! What if Brother Shengxin does not want me anymore because of it?! I do not care anymore! His hands must be cut off today!" The young girl angrily shouted as she brought several guards with her.
"You ungrateful heartless wretch~! You are still breathing and alive right now because he helped you out yesterday! You do not even thank him but you want to cut off his hands instead now?!" Zhu Yan sneered scornfully at the young girl while mocking her tantly.
The young girl became even angrier at Zhu Yan''s mocking as she screamed to order the several guards with her: "Guards~! Go and drag that servant out for me right now~!"
The several strong-looking guards obeyed the young girl''smand, and they intended to forcefully break into Zhu Yan''s courtyard to look for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
However, Zhu Yan was not intimidated by them at all.
She took a step forward instead and faced those guards head-on with a cold expression.
"I want to see who dares to step into my courtyard without my permission~!" Zhu Yan warned with a stern tone.
The several guards could only halt their stop in hesitation.
The several guards could only put on a wry helpless expression, and one of them said: "Miss Zhu, please do not make it difficult for us. We... We just want to do our job. Besides that, you do not need to go this far to defend a mere lowly servant, right?"
Zhu Yan snorted disdainfully as she replied: "He might be only a lowly servant in your eyes, but he dares to save someone he does not even know without thinking about the consequences. So, for me, he is countless times kinder and better than all of you!"
Right at this time, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy slowly approached Zhu Yan from behind.
"Look~! That is him~! Quickly catch him for me~!" The young girl screamed excitedly when she saw Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
The several guards quickly made their move to arrest Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
But Zhu Yan would not let them do what they wanted...
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! SPLOOOSSH~!
Those several guards were thrown off a few meters and fell into a nearby fish pond.
No one even saw what Zhu Yan did just now to throw those several guards into the fish pond, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could see everything very clearly.
Zhu Yan actually created several transparent threads from the water in the fish pond and used them to pull those several guards into the fish pond.
Chapter 700 700: Real Life Soap Opera!
Chapter 700 Chapter 700: Real Life Soap Opera!
From the perfect water-controlling ability that Zhu Yan had just shown, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was already more than 80% sure that Zhu Yan''s true identity was actually Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei.
Of course, there were also some possibilities which Zhu Yan had only mastered a water-controlling type spell at the consummation level, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not immediately conclude that Zhu Yan was 100% definitely Princess Yan Fei.
Well, it would not be funny if she kidnapped the wrong person and brought her back to meet Instructor Mei Lan, right?
If that really happened, Instructor Mei Lan might hang her upside down on the pole and beat her up so badly until all of her bones broke to pieces out of anger...
So, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy decided to observe Zhu Yan closely for a few more days to ensure she was really the Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei they were looking for.
Meanwhile, the young girl red at Zhu Yan with red eyes as if she was getting bullied by Zhu Yan while saying in anger: "You... You... How dare you a mere peasant girl do?! I... I... I will definitely make you regret it soon!"
Zhu Yan harrumphed as she put both her hands on her waist haughtily and replied in a provocative tone: "Then we will see who will regret itter~!"
Just when the young girl who was fuming in rage wanted to bring her drenched guards and go away from there, something unexpected suddenly happened...
Gu Shengxin who brought Elder Yang to look around the entire area of the Gu Family''s mansion was attracted by themotion they made and approached them.
The ugly grimaced expression of the young girl instantly changed into a delightful expression when she saw Gu Shengxining toward her.
Even Zhu Yan who was so haughty and overbearing before had changed into a shy and timid girl when she saw Gu Shengxin approaching.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her eyes in shock and disbelief at their instant transformation.
It was rumored that all women had two sides, a sweet side showed to the one they fell in love with and a normal side shown to others.
Tang Li Xue scoffed at that and said it was nonsense since she herself always treated everyone in the same way.
But after seeing this scene, it seemed that she was the one who was abnormal all this time...
"Brother Sheng~!" The young girl ran toward Gu Shengxin while calling him intimately with her sweetest voice.
The perfect copy''s scalp went numb, and her body shuddered slightly in fright when she heard the young girl usual shrill unpleasant voice turn into such a sweet voice in an instant.
She thought her acting in the prison was already very perfect, and she should be worthy enough to win an Oscar, but it seems she was still too naivepared to a natural-born actress like this young girl.
Gu Shengxin smiled at the approaching young girl and asked: "Ling''er? Why did youe to Miss Zhu''s courtyard so early?"
''Ling''er? I see... This ungrateful youngdy should be Gu Shengxin''s childhood friend, Ling Shuang.'' The perfect copy concluded in her heart.
ording to the information obtained by Bingbing yesterday, there were two young girls with high status currently living in the Gu Family''s mansion besides Gu Shengxin''s mother and little sister.
Ling Shuang and Zhu Yan...
Zhu Yan was a young girl who was saved by Gu Shengxin a few months ago and brought to Gu Family''s mansion by him.
It was rumored that she and Gu Shengxin had an ambiguous rtionship, and they might have liked each other.
Some people also said that Zhu Yan''s background was extremely impressive and that even the Gu Family had to respect her.
Meanwhile, Ling Shuang was Gu Shengxin''s close childhood friend, and it was rumored that their parents made them verbally engaged since they were babies.
Unfortunately, the Ling Family had fallen a lotpared to the prosperous Gu Family, so no one mentioned the engagement again right now.
But it was undoubted that Gu Shengxin and Ling Shuang were still very close to each other.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy felt as if they were currently watching a soap opera about triangle love in real life right now.
When Ling Shuang heard Gu Shengxin''s question, she immediately put a wronged expression with pitiful tearful eyes and said: "Wuwuwuwu, Brother Sheng~! Sister Zhu just bullied me~!"
Gu Shengxin''s handsome face frowned a bit as he asked again: "Really? Stop crying, Ling''er. Maybe it was just a misunderstanding. Right, Miss Zhu?"
Zhu Yan timidly shook her head to deny it with a stammered voice: "No... Uh, I mean... Yes, it might be just a misunderstanding... I only want to..."
Before Zhu Yan could exin it clearly, Ling Shuang immediately interrupted her halfway and said: "You liar~! How can you say it was just a misunderstanding?! Brother Sheng, look at what she did to my guards~!"
Gu Shengxin frowned deeper when he saw the drenched beaten-up guards.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shook her head helplessly.
The natural-born actress Ling Shuang held an advantage in their conversation since the very start because Zhu Yan had be a timid shy girl all of a sudden, so Ling Shuang easily steered their opinion and cornered Zhu Yan in only a few sentences.
It would be really bad if this continued, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy decided to say something quickly to help Zhu Yan.
''Humph~! Aren''t you good at acting?! Then we will see who is better~! A natural-born actress or the future Oscar winner?!'' The perfect copy thought smugly.
The perfect copy put a pitiful expression as she suddenly kneeled in front of Gu Shengxin and said with a sniffling voice: "Young Master Gu, please do not me Young Miss Zhu~! This is all my fault~!"
Gu Shengxin instantly became baffled by the suddenly kneeling perfect copy, while Ling Shuang''s wronged expression turned into an angry expression, but Gu Shengxin did now pay any attention to her right now so he did not realize it.
"You are only a servant, right? Why has it be your fault? What really happened here?" Gu Shengxin asked in confusion.
"Yes, this lowly one name is Pang Xiong, and this one is only a lowly servant working in the kitchen. The story is like this..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy began to exin the incident clearly from the beginning.
Gu Shengxin pondered carefully for a while after he heard everything.
Even though Ling Shuang should be the one at fault in this incident, but to be honest, Gu Shengxin really did not care about the fate of this lowly servant at all.
Not to mention only cutting the hands of one servant, even if Ling Shuang wanted to dismember ten lowly servants, Gu Shengxin would not think too much about it.
For most of the immortal cultivators with high status such as the members of Gu Family, the lives of mere mortals were as worthless as those of ants.
Normally, Gu Shengxin would just order the guards to drag away this lowly servant and let Ling Shuang do whatever she wanted.
As for Zhu Yan''s feelings for that lowly servant... Gu Shengxin thought she would definitely forget about that lowly servant soon if he invited her out to date a few times.
Fortunately for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Elder Yang was here right now... So, Gu Shengxin did not dare to make any rash decision which would make Elder Yang look down on him.
After considering carefully, Gu Shengxin decided to pat Ling Shuang''s head gently and said with aforting tone: "Ling''er, this time it is your fault! You should apologize to Miss Zhu instead."
Ling Shuang instantly pouted while looking cutely at Gu Shengxin and replied while crying sadly as if she was greatly wronged: "Brother Sheng, how could I be wrong? That lowly servant touched my chest! Only cutting off his hands could only be considered a very lenient punishment!"
The perfect copy''s mouth twitched as she thought in annoyance: ''What the hell?! Do you really think I want to touch your small breast?! I also have those too, and our size is not that different~! Even if I want to touch, it would be much better to touch Instructor Lan''s pears rather than your small meat buns!''
Zhu Yan gritted her teeth to hold back her anger as she said with a timid voice: "But he did it to save your life..."
"Humph~! So what?! I never asked him to save me!" Ling Shuang smugly replied.
Just when Gu Shengxin was hesitating on what he must do next, Elder Yang finally stepped forward and muttered: "Hey, you were the careless servant yesterday, right? No wonder you seem a bit familiar to me."
Gu Shengxin asked Elder Yang curiously: "Oh? Did Elder Yang know this servant?"
Elder Yang nodded his head and said: "Yes, I know him. He had helped me do something yesterday."
Chapter 701 701: Elder Yang’s Suspicion!
Chapter 701 Chapter 701: Elder Yang''s Suspicion!
Gu Shengxin smiled at Elder Yang and replied politely: "Oh, I see... It looks like this servant''s character is not bad. Maybe what had happened to him and Ling''er before was just an ident."
Even Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nced at Elder Yang in surprise since she never expected that Elder Yang would say something to help her out of this difficult situation.
Elder Yang chuckled when he saw the perfect copy''s surprised expression and thought that this servant was quite cute even though his appearance was only average at best.
Then Elder Yang suddenly woke up as he realized his own strangeness...
How could he think that a mere lowly male servant with average looks was cute?!
And he was usually indifferent andpletely unconcerned about the others, so how could he always subconsciously help this servant every time he met with this servant?!
There was really something very strange here...
Elder Yang frowned deeply as he stared intensely at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy for more than one minute.
The perfect copy hastily looked away to avoid Elder Yang''s intense stare since she was afraid that Elder Yang would find some clues about her true identity.
"Brother Sheng~!" Ling Shuang intimately shook Gu Shengxin''s hand while sulkingly stomping her feet.
"Ling''er, even though this servant did something impolite to you, but he also helped you out of danger, so let''s just make it even, okay?" Gu Shengxin said tofort Ling Shuang as he gently patted her head.
Zhu Yan happily nodded her head and spoke to Gu Shengxin in delight: "Brother Gu is right~! I also think so~! Thank you very much for Brother Gu''s kindness and generosity~!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stared at Zhu Yan''s fawning and delighted expression in disbelief.
''Don''t tell me this girl still thinks that Gu Bast*rd say something like that to stand up for her?! This girl is already truly hopeless!'' The perfect copy thought in disappointment.
She had heard that when any girl waspletely blinded by love, even a cow dung would be more beautiful than the flower in her eyes.
At first, Tang Li Xue thought it was only nonsense, but who knew that the undeniable proof was right in front of her eyes right now?!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shook her head as she thought that her current task might be much more difficult than she had ever imagined before.
In a condition blinded by love like this, it was natural for her to return here again after the previous fox team had forcefully kidnapped her and sent her back to her home.
''Sigh... It seems I must tell this to Instructor Lan and the otherster, so we can discuss it and make new ns as soon as possible.'' The perfect copy decided in her heart.
"Young Master Gu, I have an unkind request for you." Elder Yang suddenly muttered to Gu Shengxin.
Gu Shengxin smiled kindly at Elder Yang and replied: "I wonder what is Elder Yang''s request? I will certainly try to do my best to fulfill it."
"I think this servant is quite resourceful and quick-witted. Can you ce this servant at my ce? I think he might be able to help me a lotter." Elder Yang tantly told his request to Gu Shengxin.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her eyes in shock and disbelief as she was caughtpletely off guard by Elder Yang''s sudden request.
She hastily shook her head to refuse it, but unfortunately, no one really cared about her opinion at all this time...
Gu Shengxinughed and nodded his head as he offered: "No problem. That is such a simple thing to do. If Elder Yang wants it, I can add more maids and servants to serve you. How about it?"
Elder Yang quickly shook his head to refuse it and replied: "Thank you very much for your kindness and generosity, but I like tranquility the most. This one quick-witted servant is already more than enough to help me."
"All right, I get it!" Gu Shengxin said to Elder Yang with a polite smile on his handsome face.
But when Gu Shengxin faced Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, his expression changed into indifferent and stern as he instructed with a hint of threat in his tone: "From now on, you will follow Elder Yang. Remember to serve him well or you will not only lose your hand this time!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly lowered her head, but her eyes were actually filled with anger.
''Serve your mom~! Without your Gu Family background, what can a pampered young master like you do?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined in anger as she resisted the urge to raise her middle finger to Gu Shengxin.
While Elder Yang still secretly stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a pair of eyes filled with suspicion.
.....
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue had just gone back to her inn room with Yaya and Little Loki after they had eaten their breakfast until they were full.
Currently, she was fiddling with the [Key of Undead''s Glory] and identally found another interesting feature of it.
"What an interesting treasure~! No wonder it could be ranked in the Heavenly Treasure Ranking List~!" Tang Li Xue muttered in amazement.
Tang Li Xue threw the [Key of Undead''s Glory] and then...
SHRINGGGG~!
Its form actually transformed from a scepter to a sword!
Tang Li Xue caught it again and skillfully waved it around while executing a sword technique using it.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins~!
Tang Li Xue took a circr step as she spun her slender body and shed the ck sword in her grasp several times!
After testing the [Key of Undead''s Glory] in sword form, Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction. Even a dazzling delightful smile on her stunningly beautiful face could not hide her happiness.
She thought this [Key of Undead''s Glory] could only be used as a staff, but who knew that it could be transformed into another weapon?!
CLANG~!
The [Key of Undead''s Glory] transformed again into a ck spear this time... Then a ck shield, a huge ck axe, and a huge ck hammer, finally transformed back into a scepter.
Well, that was all...
ording to Tang Li Xue''s experiment, the [Key of Undead''s Glory] could transform into six forms in total: wand form, sword form, spear form, shield form, axe form, and hammer form.
Maybe it had more than those six forms, but Tang Li Xue currently was only able to use those six forms.
When Tang Li Xue recalled that she used this [Key of Undead''s Glory] in the wand form as a sword, she could not help but feel really embarrassed right now.
"Humph~! It was all because that Evil Ghost Emperor did not tell me anything about this feature before~!" Tang Li Xue stated in a resentful tone.
"But I wonder why he renamed this [Key of Undead''s Glory] into [Scepter of Disaster] when this thing clearly has more forms than a mere scepter?" Tang Li Xue muttered with a curious tone.
"Oh, well... Maybe that cunning Evil Ghost Emperor wants to fool his enemies into thinking that he is only a summoner, then when his enemies try to assassinate him up close, he will use the other weapon transformations to counter-kill all of them." Tang Li Xue imagined in her mind.
Then Tang Li Xue realized that her previous sword technique demonstration actually cut the entire furniture in her room into pieces, she immediately regretted it very much as she muttered in frustration: "Instructor Lan will surely get angry at me again..."
Her mood became even worse when she read the information from her perfect copy''s mind.
"What the heck is that yboy Yang doing?! Tsk~! It would be bad if he discovered our identity, so you better be more careful from now on!" Tang Li Xue warned her perfect copy with a stern tone through their mind connection.
"I know~! But this is really not my fault, okay?! Moreover, that annoying yboy Yang is always staring suspiciously at me! At this rate, I will not be able to move around freely from now on!" The perfect copy groaned in dissatisfaction.
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead in frustration while thinking about her next move carefully.
To be honest, Elder Yang''s unexpected interruption really messed up their infiltration n.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned for her perfect copy to get closer to Zhu Yan and find out if she was truly the Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei that they had been looking for.
After making sure of that, they could move on to their next n to make her hate Gu Shengxin and then bring her back to her hometer.
Who knew that Elder Yang actually asked Gu Shengxin so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy must serve Elder Yang instead from now on?!
"What if we just tell our true identity honestly to Elder Yang and ask him to help us instead? I think the chances of him helping us willingly should be quite high, right?" Her perfect copy suggested.
Chapter 702 702: The Most Careless Servant!
Chapter 702 Chapter 702: The Most Careless Servant!
Tang Li Xue also thought that her perfect copy''s suggestion was quite good since Elder Yang''s help would certainly make their mission much easier.
But the previous assassination incident was like a fishbone stuck in her throat.
Even though Tang Li Xue had guessed that Elder Yang might not be the one who sent those assassins to kill her, but it had shaken her trust in Elder Yang.
Simply put, Tang Li Xue no longer dared to fully trust Elder Yang anymore since there was no guarantee that another ident would not happen againter.
It was like your deeply hidden secret that only your closest friend knew about suddenly spread to everyone. Although you know that your closest friend might not be the one who spread it, but you surely did not want to tell your other secret to that closest friend again, right?
Tang Li Xue''s current mood was exactly the same as that.
Therefore, Tang Li Xue immediately shook her head and replied with a stern tone: "No~! If our identity as a fox were known to the Gu Family, they would certainly bring Nascent Soul Stage experts to arrest us."
"At that time, what we can do is only try to escape from this Garden City as soon as possible to avoid getting caught by those Nascent Soul Stage experts. Moreover, we will certainly drag Instructor Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox!" Tang Li Xue rejected her perfect copy''s idea while gnashing her teeth.
If that really happened, she would certainly not be able to even forgive herself!
It was not that she could not trust Elder Yang, but she did not dare to gamble with four lives: herself, Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox by cing her trust in Elder Yang.
She had alreadymitted a mistake by hiding the information about Elder Yang''s whereabouts from Instructor Mei Lan, so she did not dare to make any more mistakes right now.
Don''t think that it was only a small lie and would not affect anything, because it could be extremely fatal if Elder Yang identally bumped into Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox on the streetter.
Elder Yang would definitely recognize all of them at one nce since they had already met each other in Tang Feng City before.
Tang Li Xue did not even dare to imagine further what would happen after that!
"Sigh, forget it~! Let''s just see what you can do in the next few days." Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation as she rubbed her forehead to ease her headache.
Then a light of inspiration suddenly shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind as her topaz blue eyes were shining like a pair of stars.
"Or you can just do this to that yboy Yang..." Tang Li Xue yfully told her n to her perfect copy.
The expression of perfect copy became strange as she asked with an unsure tone: "Are you sure to do this?"
"Why not~?! You do not need to worry or think too much~! Just do as I say~!" Tang Li Xue urged her perfect copy with a tone filled with confidence.
Even though her perfect copy was still hesitant, but in the end, she still decided to do ording to her true self''s n.
.....
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her pearl-white teeth while muttering in frustration: "Damn it~! Why the hell I must do this?! Sigh, I hope will not suddenly get angry and attack meter..."
Then she secretly added a lot of salt when she made the tea before she delivered it to Elder Yang, who was sitting in a pavilion beside theke.
The perfect copy poured the tea from the teapot into a cup in front of Elder Yang, but...
SPLAAASSHH~!
The cup overflowed, and the hot tea spilled onto Elder Yang''s pure white clothes.
"AH~! I am so sorry, Elder Yang..." The perfect copy hastily took a dirty cloth to wipe the dusty table and seat before, then used it to wipe Elder Yang''s wet clothes.
Of course, her action only made Elder Yang''s pure white clothes even dirtier instead.
"How could... Please forgive me, Elder Yang~!" The perfect copy shouted in panic as she quickly bowed to Elder Yang to apologize, but the dirty cloth in her grasp was ''identally'' thrown off to Elder Yang''s face instead.
However, Elder Yang reacted faster and caught the dirty cloth before it could hit his face.
Who knew that Elder Yang was not even angry at all, but he smiled in amusement at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instead and said: "It is all right. You can take a deep breath and sit down to calm down yourself first."
Elder Yang took another cup and poured the tea from the teapot into that cup, then gave it to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "Drink this to calm yourself down."
The perfect copy quickly shook her head to reject the tea, but who knew that Elder Yang really insisted this time and stated in a stern tone: "You have to drink this tea!"
Without any other choice, the perfect copy could only unwillingly take the teacup from Elder Yang and drink it.
The extremely salty taste instantly invaded her mouth.
The perfect copy wanted to forcefully gulp it down, but she could not hold it on anymore and finally spurt it out instead.
Elder Yang swiftly avoided it, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not spurt the tea right onto his face.
"This... Please forgive me, Elder Yang~! I..." The perfect copy wanted to kneel again to apologize, but Elder Yang clearly did not n to let her off so easily.
"It is okay. As an apology, you must drink all the tea in this teapot." Elder Yang uttered with an amused smile on his handsome face.
The perfect copy became dumbfounded in an instant.
She nodded obediently at Elder Yang and muttered: "Thank you for Elder Yang''s concern, but this servant is not thirsty anymore."
Elder Yang pushed the teapot on the table closer to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and said: "Then you can just drink it slowly. I will wait for you to drink it all while reading this book."
The perfect copy became even more speechless as her mouth twitched in aggravation.
The perfect copy took the teapot in hesitation.
However, when she could pour the tea in the teapot onto the cup, the teapot ''slipped'' from her hand and fell down.
But before the teapot could hit the ground and shatter to pieces, Elder Yang skillfully kicked the teapot lightly and caught it in mid-air with his hand, then he poured the tea from the teapot into the perfect copy''s teacup by himself.
The perfect copy dropped her jaw in shock as Elder Yang shoved the teacup to her again.
''Damn you, Tang Li Xue~! Your n only harms me~!'' The perfect copy roared angrily at the real Tang Li Xue.
The real Tang Li Xue could onlyfort her perfect copy by saying: ''Uh... Well, not everyone has ever tried to drink expensive imperial salty tea, so you should be grateful...''
The perfect copy suddenly had the urge to strangle her real self to death right now...
But the perfect copy really did not want to drink that extremely salty tea, so she could only use a trick...
She took the teacup from Elder Yang and pretended to drink the tea, but she actually secretly used her Profound Law of Heat to evaporate the tea instead.
Even though the power of her Profound Law of Heat was still much weakerpared to the me of Pride that her true self had, it was more than enough to evaporate the tea.
Then she poured the tea in the teapot onto her teacup and repeated the same trick again and again until the teapot was empty.
After that, Elder Yang nned to go back to his room to change his dirty clothes, while Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nned to clean the table and bring back the teapot and teacup to the kitchen.
"What are you doing? Just let the other servants do that!" Elder Yang uttered to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Oh? Okay..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy obediently followed Elder Yang from behind.
''Hey, your n did not work at all! He did not let me go away in anger like your n!'' The perfect copyined to the real Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue pondered in a gloomy expression: ''This is strange... How the hell could he not even feel angry?! Is he a masochist or something?!''
Tang Li Xue''s n was to make Elder Yang angry, so he would kick her perfect copy back to work in the kitchen. Then she would be able to move around easily to investigate Gu Family''s mansion like before.
But her n clearly did not work out as she expected.
Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth and instructed her perfect copy again: ''I do not believe that he would not feel angry after we do it a few more times! So keep doing it until he loses his patience and kicks you as his servant!''
Her perfect copy rolled her eyes and asked angrily: ''But what if he punishes me againter because of it?''
''Then be patient and hold out until he kicks you as his servant! let''s see who has more patience between us and him!'' Tang Li Xue replied with a provocative tone.
''It is really easy for you to say that! It is me who gets punished, not you!'' The perfect copy angrilyined.
Chapter 703: Elder Yangs Apology!
703 Chapter 703: Elder Yang''s Apology!
Tang Li Xue could only shrug her shoulders helplessly when she heard her perfect copy''sint.
She obviously could not switch roles with her perfect copy since her me of Pride and Elder Yang''s Blood of Lust could sense each other.
Her identity would instantly be discovered by Elder Yang if she did it.
"All right, I get it! Stop sulking! If you can think of any better idea, you can just do whatever you want, ok?" Tang Li Xue blurted tofort her perfect copy.
Her perfect copy rolled her eyes and puckered her cheeks in anger while following Elder Yang back to his room.
She did not know that every change in her expression was secretly seen by Elder Yang.
Elder Yang chuckled as he thought about something amusing.
When they arrived at Elder Yang''s courtyard, there were already a dozen beautiful maids who waited in Elder Yang''s courtyard.
These beautiful maids were carefully handpicked by Gu Shengxin to serve Elder Yang while he was staying in the Gu Family''s mansion.
Each of them was undoubtedly much more attractive than the perfect copy''s ''average'' looks, and each of them was also proficient in many skills such as tea making, massage, ying musical instruments, and so on.
But Elder Yang''s expression immediately turned cold and indifferent when he saw them, then he shouted coldly to those maids before they could even greet him: "I already said that I do not need any maids or servants. All of you get out of here~!"
Those beautiful maids were intimidated by Elder Yang''s scary momentum and hastily ran away from there in fright.
''Tsk~! What a pity... All of those maids are so delicate and beautiful. No, wait a minute... Don''t tell me this Elder Yang is actually Gay?!'' The expression of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instantly changed into fear and panic.
Elder Yang headed straight into his room to change his clothes while Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only stood in front of his room''s door, and she did not even dare to step closer into his room.
But unfortunately, Elder Yang had a different opinion about that...
"Why are you only standing there? Come in here quickly~!" Elder Yang ordered the perfect copy with a stern tone.
"Eh, what? But... How could I..." The perfect copy was dumbfounded and tried to reject it while shaking her head profusely.
Elder Yang''s expression turned colder as he said: "You were the one who made my clothes dirty, so you must be the one who should help me change my clothes! Do you understand?!"
"Wha, wha... Whaaatt~?! No, no, no... I can''t~! I... I will just ask another servant to do it, okay?!" The perfect copy turned around to call the other servant instead, but Elder Yang had moved faster than her.
He caught the perfect copy''s wrist and pulled her forcefully into his room without regarding her objection.
Even the real Tang Li Xue also became dumbfounded by this sudden unexpected situation.
''I do not want to y this role anymore~! Please bring me out of here right now~!'' The perfect copy screamed in panic to the real Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue took her breath and tried to calm down her perfect copy: ''Calm down! Maybe he is just trying to test you! Don''t worry~! if he dares to harass youter, just kick his balls as hard as you can, and then I will un-summon you right away, okay?!''
Her perfect copy calmed down a lot after she heard the real Tang Li Xue''s words.
What she feared the most was that her real self would still force her to obey Elder Yang''s every bidter.
Meanwhile, Elder Yang had already taken off his long white robe and upper clothes, then he threw his new long robe and upper clothes to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy secretly sighed in relief and thought ruthlessly: ''Fortunately, he did not take off his pants, or I will really kick off his balls~!''
Elder Yang stretched his hands, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could easily help him put on his clothes.
When she saw Elder Yang''s perfect muscr body, she could not help but blush in shame.
Elder Yang squinted his eyes in delight, and the corner of his mouth curved slightly with unconceble joy when he saw the perfect copy''s blushed expression.
If he was only around 60% sure before, then right now he was already more than 80% sure about the identity of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy because of her current reaction.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was awkwardly trying to help Elder Yang wear his upper clothes and long robe.
Her movement was really rough, and she also made a lot of mistakes.
Anyone could easily tell that she was clearly unqualified as a servant.
But Elder Yang did notin at all.
He patiently waited while his eyes kept staring at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
It took more than ten minutes for the perfect copy toplete her task, and the result was far from satisfactory since Elder Yang''s new long robe and clothes became wrinkled instead.
''Your work is so terrible... It is really a miracle that fools only stare at you like an idiot and do notin at all.'' Tang Li Xue stated her opinion tantly.
The perfect copy rolled her eyes and replied: ''Are you sure you can even do it better than me?! Wearing clothes by ourselves and helping others to wear them are twopletely different things; okay?!''
The perfect copy had already prepared to kick some balls if Elder Yang dared to harass her, but who knew that he actually ordered her to prepare some fresh meats and barbeque tools instead?!
''What a weirdo~! He can just ask the servants in the kitchen to cook anything he wants, but he chooses to cook by himself?! Do you really think that you can cook better than those veteran chefs?!'' The perfect copyined in her heart.
But she could only obey Elder Yang''s strange order and ask for some fresh meats and barbeque tools from the kitchen.
The perfect copy put everything in Elder Yang''s courtyard, then Elder Yang took several seasonings from his spatial ring and began to skillfully roast the meat on the barbeque tools.
An extremely mouth-watering fragrant aroma spread everywhere, and it made the perfect copy almost unable to hold back her saliva anymore.
Elder Yang smiled gently as he stared at the perfect copy''s greedy expression, but the perfect copy did not realize it since she was currently impatiently staring at the roasted meat Elder Yang made.
Elder Yang took off the silver mask andpletely showed his masculine handsome face.
The perfect copy did not bother to pay any attention to him, since what she really wanted to do right now was to eat the roasted meat that Elder Yang made right now.
Elder Yangughed as he gave the roasted meat to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy while saying: "I used to have an extremely beautiful silver white fox before. She likes to eat the roasted meat I make the most."
"Oh, really? Then where is that fox now?" The perfect copy asked while nibbling the roasted meat greedily.
Elder Yang put an ironic smile and replied in a sad tone: "She is not with me anymore."
"Why? Did that fox die?" The perfect copy asked curiously.
"No... Umm, well, maybe she died once before, and then she could no longer remember anything about me anymore." Elder Yang exined while roasting another meat.
"Previously, I was too busy doing my job and neglected her at home all day. Come to think of it, I felt really guilty to her about it. If I was given a second chance, I would definitely choose to care for her more and y with her all day instead." Elder Yang said with a tone filled with regret.
Elder Yang stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and asked: "Do you think she will forgive me if I apologize to her?"
For some unknown reason, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy suddenly had an urge to cry after they heard Elder Yang''s words. They also did not know why they felt like that.
The perfect copy nodded and replied in aforting tone: "I am sure that fox will forgive you. I mean even the best father would leave their children at home when he works to obtain the money to buy food, right?"
Elder Yang immediately smiled with a relieved expression while saying: "Thank you. I swear I will definitely be more caring to you, and I will also protect you forever from now on."
The perfect copy widened her eyes in confusion and tried to correct Elder Yang: "You mean that fox, right?"
Elder Yangughed while nodding his head and replied: "Pfft~! Hahaha~! Yes, I mean that fox."
The perfect copy had already finished her roasted meat, but Elder Yang put another roasted meat into her mouth while speaking: "Eat more~! You can eat as much as you want."
Facepalm~! (>w<) There it is our Tang Li Xue''s weakness~! Elder Yang''s handmade roasted meat~!

Chapter 704: Bad News From Instructor Mei Lan!
704 Chapter 704: Bad News From Instructor Mei Lan!
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue could only swallow her saliva in her own room right now.
She had already tasted Elder Yang''s roasted meat before, and she liked it very much.
Unfortunately, she could only watch her perfect copy eat that delicious roasted meat alone at this moment through their mind connection.
''Err... Can you please bring some of the roasted meat backfor me to tasteter?'' Tang Li Xue could not help but try to ask for her perfect copy to bring back some of Elder Yang''s roasted meat to her since she really craved to eat it again.
The perfect copy rolled her eyes and replied with a mocking tone: ''No way~! Why don''t you juste here and eat with us right now?"
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly in annoyance as she cursed: ''You insolent rebel~!''
The perfect copy giggled mischievously while Elder Yang also smiled even more brightly as he kept staring gently at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue shook her head to clear her mind of all distractions and continued to practice [Essence Devouring Technique] while sitting in the lotus position.
Even though Tang Li Xue could already use this [Essence Devouring Technique] quite proficiently, but she was still very far away frompletely mastering it.
When Tang Li Xue started running her [Essence Devouring Technique], the surrounding spiritual energy rushed toward her and absorbed into her body.
But she still carefully controlled the intensity within the barely eptable range, so it would not make a bigmotion just like when she practiced the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] before.
Tang Li Xue''s cultivation had just broken through to the 2nd level of the Foundation Establishment Stage this morning, so she needs some time to consolidate it.
Therefore, she was currently practicing [Essence Devouring Technique] while consolidating her current cultivation level at the same time.
Doing two tasks at the same time like this might be pretty taxing for her, but it undoubtedly could save a lot of her time.
What Tang Li Xuecked the most right now was time!
Unknowingly, the sun had set, and the skies slowly turned dark.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox also came back to the inn one by one.
Tang Li Xue stopped her practice and slowly opened her charming topaz blue eyes since her group would have another meeting in Instructor Mei Lan''s room again tonight.
Both Bingbing and Silly Fox only found some superficial information about Gu Shengxin and his family today, but the news brought by Instructor Mei Lan was very shocking to them.
Instructor Mei Lan told the crucial information she got today to her three students with a grim expression: "The war between cultivator armies and beast tides has spread and be more intensetely."
"To make it worse, Gu Shengxin''s mother, Li Fuyun, and his sister, Gu Xianying, were attacked by the beast tide on their way back from Alchemist Sect to Garden City today. Their fate was still unknown until this moment."
"This news just arrived this evening, so Gu Family and the elders from Immortal Sword Sect would surely send many of their people to look for those two as soon as possible." Instructor Mei Lan concluded her news.
"Wha.... What?!" Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox eximed in shock and disbelief.
This news was too shocking, and it took some time for them to digest it.
After a few moments of silence, Tang Li Xue decided to ask curiously: "They should have a lot of bodyguards to escort them, right? How could something like this still happen?"
Instructor Mei Lan patiently answered Tang Li Xue''s question: "Yes, they have several tens of powerful guards escorting them, but how can they escape from the assaults of hundreds or even thousands of rampaging beasts, it is also impossible for them to defend against the beast tide."
"To be honest, the chances of them still being alive is actually very small, almost nil." Instructor Mei Lan concluded.
"Wait a minute... Doesn''t that mean the protection in the Gu Family''s mansion will be weakened a lot tonight? Isn''t this our best chance to sneak in there, find Princess Yan Fei, and bring her out of this city in one move?" Silly Fox happily told his idea to everyone.
Before Instructor Mei Lan could answer, Bingbing already rebuked Silly Fox with a mocking tone first: "You are really a fool~! No matter how weakened the protection is, there should be at least a dozen Nascent Soul Stage experts guarding there."
"Not to mention, there are also so many advanced formations for protection, trapping, and killing any intruders there. Once we recklessly enter the Gu Family''s mansion, we might not be able to get out of there alive." Tang Li Xue added.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded her head in joy when she saw her student''s growth and uttered with an urgent tone: "It seems even this Garden City is not safe anymore. This Garden City will surely be engulfed in war sooner orter, so we must speed up toplete our mission as soon as possible."
Then she stared at Tang Li Xue and asked: "Little Xue, what about you? Did your clone manage to find any clue about Princess Yan Fei in the Gu Family''s mansion?"
Tang Li Xue nodded her head with a serious expression and replied: "Yes, I am already more than 60% sure that a nice girl named Zhu Yan should be Princess Yan Fei in disguise since I saw her controlling the water in the fishpond to form transparent thread today."
"Oh? Tell me more clearly about it." Instructor Mei Lan instructed Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue began to tell what happened today between her perfect copy, Zhu Yan, Ling Shuang, and Gu Shengxin to Instructor Mei Lan except for the part where Elder Yang suddenly came and helped her out.
"Uhh... But I might be wrong. Since there is still some chance that Zhu Yan is actually a human who has mastered water controlling spell, so I still need to observe her further." Tang Li Xue stated her hesitation.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded in satisfaction at Tang Li Xue''s news and praised: "Good job, Little Xue~! You do not need to worry too much. You can just keep observing that girl named Zhu Yan carefully and try to make sure if she is really Princess Yan Fei or not in these few days."
Tang Li Xue''s expression became a bit unnatural after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
Well... The reason for that was because her perfect copy was currently ''trapped'' beside Elder Yang, and she could not make any move to approach Zhu Yan for now.
"But that Gu Shengxin is really a jerk. He seems to like both Ling Shuang and Zhu Yan, right?" Bingbing uttered with a disgusted tone.
"Don''t worry, Xue~! I will definitely not be like that bast*rd Gu Shengxin~! I will only love you alone forever~!" Silly Fox stated to Tang Li Xue while patting his chest to reassure her.
Tang Li Xue rolled her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes and said: "Is that the time for us toin about that Gu ''Jerk'' Shengxin?! We should start thinking of some way to make Zhu Yan hate that jerk, right?"
All of them instantly fell silent again...
ording to Tang Li Xue''s previous story, they were basically 100% sure that Zhu Yan had really fallen in love so badly with Gu Shengxin.
Even if they forcefully kidnapped her and brought her back to her home, she would surely sneak out again to meet with Gu Shengxin.
Making her hate Gu Shengxin was easy to say, but it was clearly extremely hard to do.
Even if they said to her that Gu Shengxin was an evil person or a womanizer with a lot of mistresses, she would surely never believe their words.
Who knew that Bingbing was the first one who gave them a random idea by saying: "What if we just find a better man for her? I am sure there are a lot of better men than that jerk Gu Shengxin out there, right?!"
Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes shone brightly as a light of inspiration shed in her mind, and she absentmindedly asked: "Wait a minute... What did you say just now?"
Bingbing stared at Instructor Mei Lan with a confused look and repeated what she just said: "Eh? There are a lot of better men than that jerk Gu Shengxin out there?"
"No, before that~!" Instructor Mei Lan replied.
"Eh, what? What if we just find a better man for her?" Bingbing murmured in confusion.
"That is it~! What a great idea~!" Instructor Mei Lan shouted as she suddenly stood up in excitement.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox still did not get it at all the reason why Instructor Mei Lan suddenly got so excited.
''What the heck~?! Did Instructor Lan really seriously think of finding a better man for Princess Yan Fei?'' Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox thought in shock and disbelief.
Lmao~! This development is really interesting, right?! even I am also really looking forward to the next chapter now~! \(>w<)/

Chapter 705: A Perfect Male God!
705 Chapter 705: A Perfect Male God!
"All right~! All of you can go back to your room and rest. I need to go and make some preparations first." Instructor Mei Lan said as she kicked her three students back to their own respective rooms.
Although Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox still did not have any idea about what was Instructor Mei Lan nning to do next, but they could only suppress the curiosity in their heart for now and wait patiently until Instructor Mei Lan told themter.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue did not stay in her own room like the others after she went back, but she brought Little Loki and Yaya out to eat their dinner in the restaurant.
Just like yesterday, Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and Yaya to the cultivation cave leasing building after they were full and rented a low-grade cultivation cave for eight hours.
Tang Li Xue felt great heartache when she paid 400 low-tier spirit stones to the leasing clerk, but she really had no better choice right now.
While Little Loki and Yaya were fast asleep in the expensive cultivation cave, Tang Li Xue was diligently practicing the Profound Law of Heat and Cold in the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form]until the next morning.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes and checked her improvement from her status window in her System.
Cultivation Technique: Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art (Crimson Phoenix, ck Tortoise, White Tiger), Yin and Yang Chaotic Form (Profound Law of Heat and Cold [0.04%]).
"A steady improvement of 0,02% every day. Well, not bad~! Even though the speed is extremely slow, but the steady improvement step by step gives some undescribable satisfying feeling." Tang Li Xue murmured while smiling pleasedly.
Tang Li Xue woke up the sleeping Little Loki and Yaya, then led them back to their inn.
Who knew that Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox had already waited for her in front of her room?!
Tang Li Xue suddenly had a very bad feeling when she saw they had waited for her so early in the morning.
She warily nced at them and asked: "Why did you guyse to my room so early today? Did something happen?"
Instructor Mei Lan''s eyes were shining in excitement when she saw Tang Li Xue.
She patted Tang Li Xue''s shoulder gently and muttered: "Little Xue~! You finallye back. You should have already heard Bingbing''s suggestion yesterday about finding a better man for Princess Yan Fei, right? So, I am looking for you so early today to discuss it."
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and disbelief, then she inquired: "Instructor Lan, don''t tell me you will make me do it again?!"
09:23
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and disbelief, then she inquired: "Instructor Lan, don''t tell me you will make me do it again?!"
Instructor Mei Lan nodded in satisfaction and replied with a gentle smile on her face: "You have be so smart right now, Little Xue! I am really proud of you now. You arepletely right!"
Tang Li Xue almost slipped and fell down after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s tant answer.
Even Bingbing and Silly Fox were trying so hard to hold out theirughter.
Tang Li Xue red at the two of them resentfully and retorted to Instructor Mei Lan in an unwilling tone: "Why does it have to be me again?! Isn''t there still Silly Fox here as the only male in our group?! I believe he can do it much better than me~!"
Instructor Mei Lan sneered mockingly at Tang Li Xue''s statement while pointing her finger at Hei Yinghao and muttered: "This Silly Fox? Can do it much better than you?! Then you can look at this first..."
Instructor Mei Lan stepped closer toward Silly Fox, but he hastily retreated with a timid fearful expression.
Instructor Mei Lan pushed Bingbing closer toward Silly Fox, but Silly Fox quickly took a few steps back with an expression filled with disgust.
When Instructor Mei Lan pushed Tang Li Xue closer toward Silly Fox, he quickly opened his hands as if he wanted to hug her so badly with a silly delightful expression.
Tang Li Xue avoided Silly Fox''s hug and kicked him away while muttering: "This guy is truly hopeless~!"
Instructor Mei Lan nodded and added: "With his behavior, it should be impossible for him to woo Princess Yan Fei."
However, Tang Li Xue still remained unconvinced, so she tried to refuse again by saying: "But it does not have to be me, right? I am sure Instructor Lan can do it so much better than me!"
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and cornered Tang Li Xue again by asking: "Who do you all think is the most charming and attractive among us?"
Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox pointed at Tang Li Xue in unison.
Even Tang Li Xue herself could not deny it, and she could not help but admit it too...
"Who do you all think is the most reliable and who do you want to marry in the future among us?" Instructor Mei Lan asked again.
Their choice did not change at all, and they still pointed their finger at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
''All right, you all... I think of you all as my close friends but you think of me as your future husband and wife instead?! Are you kidding me?!'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart.
With a helpless pitiful look, Tang Li Xue could only let Instructor Mei Lan drag her into the room in resignation.
In fact, Instructor Mei Lan would never let any of her students including Tang Li Xue carry out such a risky n.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue has an extremely bugged [Twin Moons] divine ability, so Instructor Mei Lan could let Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy carry out any risky n without any burden.
Under Instructor Mei Lan''s instruction, Tang Li Xue summoned her perfect copy back to her room.
Then Instructor Mei Lan began to remove the perfect copy''s previous disguise and put another disguise on her.
This time, Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to put on any skin mask to cover the perfect copy''s perfect stunning beautiful face.
Instructor Mei Lan tried to think of some ways to improve the appearance of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but she immediately realized that Tang Li Xue was already extremely perfect from the very beginning.
Her smooth skin was whiter than snow and smoother than jade, her countenance was so stunning with eyebrows like the phoenix''s feathers.
Her lips were pinkish like the sweetest fresh peach, making anyone who saw them have an urge to take a bite at them.
Her clear innocent topaz blue eyes seemed to glow like a pair of stars as the world seemed to lose color before their beauties.
It was undeniable that she had celestial beauty that would shock anyone''s heart and capture anyone''s soul, so beautiful that it was unreal, but, at the same time, it also caused one to feel a sense of being unattainable.
Even the saying ''exceptional beauty that can cause the entire kingdom ruined in a single nce'' seems unworthy to be used to describe her current appearance.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded in admiration as she muttered: "No wonder that Silly Fox is so crazy about you."
Since Tang Li Xue''s appearance was already so perfect, Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to put on any makeup for her anymore since it would only ruin her appearance.
But silky smooth silver hair and eyebrows including her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes were apletely different matter.
Even though they made her look even more charming and attractive, but they also made her look inhuman, so Instructor Mei Lan decided to make her change her topaz blue eye color to ck with eye dripping potion, paint her eyebrows ck, and make her wear a long ck-haired wig, then tie it in a ponytail hairstyle to make her look a bit more masculine.
Then Instructor Mei Lan made Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wear a set of male Hanfu white clothes and a long white robe.
This expensive-looking set of pure white clothes reminds Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy of the incident where she changed Elder Yang''s clothes.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy blushed at the same time when they recalled that moment.
After Instructor Mei Lan made sure that everything was perfect, she let Bingbing and Silly Fox enter the room to help her see if there were still some defects in the perfect copy''s disguise.
Both Bingbing and Silly Fox were dumbfounded in an instant when they saw the perfect male god in front of them.
Both of them eximed in amazement and excitement: "Woooaaahh~! Little Xue, you are so handsome~!"
FLAPPP~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy showed her extremely handsome smile while opened the paper fan in her grasp.
Bingbing instantly fell in love with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, and she immediately grabbed her arm and shouted crazily: "Waaahhh~! I have already decided that Little Xue is my future husband from now on~!"
"Muahahaha~! No problem, Sister Bing~! Then you will be one of my concubines from now on~! Wahahahaha~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy put on her act andughed happily while intimately hugging Bingbing''s slender waist.
"Ah~! Young Master Tang, you pervert~! But I really like you, so I will forgive you~!" Bingbing yfully replied while intimately putting her head on the perfect copy''s shoulder.
Meanwhile, Silly Fox could only stare at them enviously. It was clear that he also wanted to be hugged by Tang Li Xue or her perfect copy.
Instructor Mei Lan also chuckled softly when she saw her students were joking around.
Can Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy seduce Princess Yan Fei and make herpletely forget about Gu Shengxin? We will see it soonter~! (>w<)

Chapter 706: The Absolute Law of Survival!
706 Chapter 706: The Absolute Law of Survival!
Even Little Loki and Yaya also joined their fun, and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hugged them while moring she already had three concubines out of nowhere.
Silly Fox tried to snuggle close to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with them, saying that he was willing to be her fourth concubine, but he only got kicked away by Tang Li Xue instead.
"This Handsome Young Master Tang is a normal straight man~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stated smugly to Silly Fox as she went deeper into her role as a handsome young master.
Silly Fox could only put on the wronged expression and draw a circle with his finger at the corner of the room alone.
While the others wereughing and joking together, the real Tang Li Xue began to discuss their next n seriously with Instructor Mei Lan.
"Err... Instructor Lan, how could my perfect copy supposed to sneak back into the Gu Family''s mansion? It should be impossible for her to enter the Gu Family''s mansion as a lowly servant while looking like this, right?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a skeptical tone.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes while replying: "Of course not~! How can she woo Princess Yan Fei as a lowly servant?!"
Then Instructor Mei Lan took a pamphlet and gave it to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue took the pamphlet from Instructor Mei Lan with a confused look, but she immediately got it after she read the pamphlet.
The pamphlet was about the Gu Family recruiting warriors and cultivators to fight against Beast Tide.
It seemed the Gu Family''s experts already made their move to look at Gu Shengxin''s mother and little sister yesterday night, but the Beast Tide was too fierce, and they could only barely make progress until now.
In the end, the Gu Family decided to hire as many wandering warriors and casual cultivators as they could to fight against Beast Tide.
Their reward was also very generous.
1000 low-tier spirit stones for any warriors and cultivators with cultivation below the Acupuncture Opening Stage.
10 mid-tier spirit stones or 10,000 low-tier spirit stones for Foundation Establishment Stage experts.
100 mid-tier spirit stones or 100,000 low-tier spirit stones for Core Formation Stage experts.
As of Nascent Soul Stage, it should be almost impossible for any wandering warriors and casual cultivators to reach this cultivation level in Lightwind Continent.
The reason for that was because theycked almost everything from the cultivation techniques inheritance to any resources needed for breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage without any proper backer like 4 evil sects and 5 righteous sects.
Anyway, Tang Li Xue also thought the reward was very generous.
Not to mention, the recruited wandering warriors and casual cultivators could harvest more benefits if they killed many beasts and sold their bodiester.
"I see... So, Instructor Lan wants my perfect copy to join this recruitment as a casual cultivator and let me show my strength to woo Princess Yan Fei." Tang Li Xue muttered while nodding her head in understanding.
But Instructor Mei Lan shook her head to deny it and exined: "The status of a casual cultivator is not attractive enough. We should make it as if your clone is a wandering young master with hidden noble status and join this recruitment to look for fun."
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in astonishment.
She thought that Instructor Mei Lan was really too meticulous.
But Tang Li Xue frowned deeper as she thought of a crucial problem.
"Instructor Lan, if my perfect copy joins this recruitment, it means she must kill other beastster... Is it really all right for my perfect copy to do that?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a confused expression.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and said: "Every Beast Tide consists of at least several thousands or even tens of thousands of beasts. Every time they sh with human cultivator armies, hundreds or thousands of them would surely die. So, what if you kill a few dozen of them?!"
Instructor Mei Lan warned all of her three students by saying: "In this world, only the strong can survive, while the weak will perish sooner orter. This is an absolutew that applies to all creatures, whether beasts, humans, or undead."
"Don''t think that the other beast would always let you go just because you are from the Fox n. You can look at a snake eating a rabbit, or an eagle eating a snake. All of them are from Beast Race, so why do they fight and eat each other?!"
"Will powerful human-race immortal cultivators or undead creatures spare you just because you are only a young fox cub right now and wait until you are fully grown before having a fair fight against you? Nope~!"
"Therefore, all of you must have a greater sense of urgency, seize every second to get stronger as soon as possible before you perish as a weakling."
The fun atmosphere in the room instantly turned gloomy after Instructor Mei Lan''s lecture.
Instructor Mei Lan''s words might be very harsh, but it was actually for her own students'' good.
Tang Li Xue also fell silent at this moment.
''Sigh... Yes, that might not be nice to hear, but Instructor Lan''s words are absolutely right. Mercy is a luxury owned by the strong because only the strong would have the privilege to choose to spare or kill anyone weaker than themselves, while the weak could only ept the decision passively.'' Tang Li Xue thought and sighed in sorrow and depression.
09:24
''Sigh... Yes, that might not be nice to hear, but Instructor Lan''s words are absolutely right. Mercy is a luxury owned by the strong because only the strong would have the privilege to choose to spare or kill anyone weaker than themselves, while the weak could only ept the decision passively.'' Tang Li Xue thought and sighed in sorrow and depression.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled in satisfaction when she saw her students'' urgent look to get stronger.
Then she pped her hands and said: "All right~! I know you want to go back to our home and train to be stronger, but we have a lot of things to do right now~! So, let''s focus onpleting this mission as soon as possible, so we can go back home quickly~!"
Instructor Mei Lan took out several sets of maid outfits and a set of bodyguard armor from her space pouch, then distributed them to her students.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Instructor Mei Lan kicked the Silly Fox out of the room to let him change in his own room.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Instructor Mei Lan wore white maid outfits and white veils to cover their beautiful face, while Silly Fox looked very handsome and intimidating in ck bodyguard armor.
All of them secretly went out of the inn and headed to a remote ce before Instructor Mei Lan took out a luxurious pnquin d in gold from her space pouch.
Even though Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was embarrassed, but she still followed Instructor Mei Lan''s order. She entered the pnquin and sat leisurely inside it.
Then, the real Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan lifted the luxurious pnquin and walked toward Gu Family''s mansion.
Everyone on the street quickly made way for them.
They might not know who was inside this luxurious pnquin but since it was escorted by three beautiful maids and a handsome bodyguard, they guessed that it was not someone they could offend.
.....
Meanwhile, the current Elder Yang did not know that Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy already headed to the Gu Family''s mansion again.
He became anxious after he could not find Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy this morning and almost flipped the entire Gu Family''s mansion upside down to look for her.
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect reported back to Elder Yang while helplessly shaking their heads and said: "Elder Yang, we really cannot find any trace of that servant. It seems like he suddenly vanished into thin air."
Elder Yang''s expression turned gloomy and colder.
Even several Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect felt breathless and their blood was churning violently by the pressure he emitted right at this moment.
It was truly a strange phenomenon since they clearly have much higher cultivationpared to Elder Yang, so how could Elder Yang make them feel very ufortable like this just by using his aura?!
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect stared at Elder Yang with more awe and respect in their eyes.
Most of them might had some doubt about their Patriarch''s decision to make Elder Yang the young patriarch of their Immortal Sword Sect before, but right now, they werepletely convinced by that decision.
The current Elder Yang was only at the peak of the Core Formation Stage, but he could already force them to feel like this.
Doesn''t it mean he could easily defeat all of them after he breakthrough to Nascent Soul Stageter?!
What a scary young man~!
If Tang Li Xue knew that Elder Yang already reached the the peak of the Core Formation Stage right now and was only a half step away from the Nascent Soul Stage, she might have eximed in shock and disbelief.
It was because Elder Yang was only at the mid-level Core Formation Stage thest time they fought against each other before.
No one knew that Elder Yang actually got a lucky opportunity when he was copying 10,000 martial arts manuals in the library, and he managed to trigger an epiphany that improved his strength and cultivation level so much.
If Tang Li Xue knew it, she mightin about unfairness and curse Elder Yang for cheating.
She had to work so hard and spend so much effort, blood, tears, snots, and sweat to reach her current strength, but Elder Yang only needed to sit in the library and copy some manuals to be stronger! How could this be fair?!
There will be an interesting development in the next chapter, so do not miss it~! (>w<)

Chapter 707: Stupid Elder Yang!
707 Chapter 707: Stupid Elder Yang!
Elder Yang took a deep breath to calm down his turbulent mood, then he uttered to Several Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect: "All right, I get it. Thanks to all of you for your help. You all can go back to do your own task."
After getting Elder Yang''s permission, several Nascent Soul Stage elders dispersed and went back to their respective posts to do their own jobs.
"Sigh... Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai... Why do you always suddenly disappear like this? Should I just tie you tightly by my side forever when I see you again next time?" Elder Yang sighed in sorrow and depression.
Just when Elder Yang was thinking hard about how to find his Xiao Bai again while absentmindedly wandering around the Gu Family''s mansion, the Blood of Lust in his body suddenly gave a warning near the front gate.
It told Elder Yang that it sensed one of its kind nearby!
Elder Yang''s eyes instantly shone brighter in excitement as he eximed: "It should be Xiao Bai! No, this time it should be the real Xiao Bai, not her clone like before!"
Elder Yang hurriedly ran towards the front gate impatiently to meet his Xiao Bai.
.....
Meanwhile, the luxurious pnquin had finally arrived right in front of the Gu Family''s front gate.
There were already many people queuing to register as recruits to fight against the Beast Tide.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy slowly got off the luxurious pnquin with abright smile on her astonishingly charming handsome face.
FLAP~!
She opened the paper fan in her grasp and the light breeze that blew her silky long ck hairs made her even more dazzling.
Even the crowd of people instantly fell silent and dumbfounded for some time before they could recover.
"Who is that?! So handsome~!"
"Don''t tell me that he is Young Master Gu Shengxin?!"
"No way~! I have already seen Young Master Gu Shengxin a few times before. He is still far from being as good-looking as this young man."
"Really? Then why is Young Master Gu Shengxin known as the most handsome man in this Lightwind Continent?"
"It might be because this extremely handsome young man is not as well-known as Young Master Gu Shengxin, so no one knows about him yet."
There was quite a bigmotion when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy appeared, but she ignored all of them and said to her ''three beautiful maids and one handsome bodyguard'': "Since I have already arrived safely here, you all do not have to worry about me anymore. You all can go back home right now."
"But Young Master Feng... ording to Sect Leader, we must follow you to..." Instructor Mei Lan muttered with a desperate tone.
The expression of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instantly turned cold as she rebuked in an indifferent tone: "Shut up~! Do you really think I still need your protection with my current strength?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy deliberately let out the pressure from her cultivation at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
All of the people there felt breathless and fell to their knees at that moment because of the immense pressure emitted by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, including her own ''three beautiful maids and one handsome bodyguard''.
"We... We understand... Please do not be angry at us, Young Master Feng~!" Instructor Mei Lan murmured weakly as if she was affected by the immense pressure.
"Humph~! Now go back before my patience is run out!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said coldly as she walked closer to the Gu Family''s front gate.
Her three beautiful maids and one handsome bodyguard'' put on worried and unwilling expressions, but they did not have any other choice than to obey their Young Master''s order.
But before they could go away farther from there...
Elder Yang suddenly went out from the Gu Family''s front gate with a very excited expression.
The expression of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy immediately changed into shock and panic.
Elder Yang stared at the real Tang Li Xue with a pair of passionate eyes like torches, and he impatiently rushed toward her.
But before Elder Yang could approach the real Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy quickly grabbed Elder Yang''s arm tightly and greeted him with an excited tone: "Ahahaha~! Long time no see, Elder Yang~! I know you also miss me very much, but this is not the right ce for us to talk. Let''s go inside first~!"
Elder Yang nced at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a suspicious and confused look.
Elder Yang knew in only one nce that this Young Master Feng was actually Xiao Bai''s perfect clone, but he did not understand why she tried to stop him from approaching the real Xiao Bai.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy desperately blinked her eyes, again and again, to give a signal for Elder Yang to just follow her words for now.
Elder Yang could only reluctantly follow Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy who kept dragging his arm and walked again toward the Gu Family''s front gate, but his eyes kept staring at the real Tang Li Xue with passion and longing.
The real Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she saw her perfect copy and Elder Yang entered the Gu Family''s mansion again together.
Unfortunately, Instructor Mei Lan had already seen Elder Yang since the very start when he went out from the Gu Family''s front gate.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered slightly as she could clearly sense that Instructor Mei Lan red at her coldly in rage and disappointment from behind.
''We will have a long talk about thister after we go back to our inn. But let''s go to the remote ce and remove our disguise first." Instructor Mei Lan whispered in a cold and indifferent tone.
Tang Li Xue''s guilt was instantly magnified several times when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s cold, distant, and indifferent tone.
She silently med and cursed Elder Yang for his thoughtless action in her mind: ''This is all that yboy Yang''s fault~! I thought that yboy was very smart before, but who knows that he is actually so stupid! What a pig teammate!''
''How could he suddenlye out and chase after me in front of Instructor Lan and so many people?! Did he leave his brain at the Immortal Sword Sect?!'' Tang Li Xueined in anger.
Tang Li Xue could only sigh helplessly right now.
It would not be easy for her to exin this to Instructor Mei Lanter.
She knew that Instructor Mei Lan hated the Human Race very much. No, it was not just Instructor Mei Lan but most of the Beast Race including their Fox n should be so.
Instructor Mei Lan would definitely not like it if she got too close to any human, especially someone like Elder Yang.
But right now, she even hid the information about Elder Yang from Instructor Mei Lan until this point.
It could easily be imagined how angry and disappointed Instructor Mei Lan was to her at this moment.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to swap roles with her perfect copy so badly right now since she did not dare to face Instructor Mei Lanter.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was also currently venting her anger to Elder Yang by kicking his ankle again and again.
Even though she did not even use 10% of her full strength, but Elder Yang still felt some pain in his ankle.
Elder Yang shook his head with a helpless expression and asked with apletely oblivious tone: "Xiao Bai, please do not act sulky like this. You can just say tantly where is my fault, so I can fix it."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her pearl-white teeth in anger and scolded: "Your fault is that you are too stupid! You should use your brain to think clearly and carefully before you do something! You bast*rd~! You... Sigh, you really bring me a huge disaster to me this time."
Just when Elder Yang wanted to ask what he did wrong to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Gu Shengxin, Ling Shuang, and Zhu Yan had already walked toward them to greet Elder Yang.
Gu Shengxin, Ling Shuang, and Zhu Yan werepletely fascinated by Tang Li Xue''s perfect good look and stunned silly for a few seconds.
Elder Yang frowned deeply in dissatisfaction when the others stared at his Xiao Bai like that, so he stepped forward and covered their vision to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with his body.
"Good morning, Elder Yang~! Oh, who is this person? Your friend?" Gu Shengxin asked Elder Yang curiously, but he nced at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in awe and amazement, but no one noticed that there was a sh of deep envy and jealousy at Tang Li Xue''s perfect stunning look in his eyes.
Even Ling Shuang and Zhu Yan who had fallen in love so deeply with Gu Shengxin blushed shyly, and their hearts were beating violently, when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy showed her bright smile and nodded toward them.
"Yes, this is my close childhood friend. His name is... Err..." Elder Yang introduced Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to Gu Shengxin, Ling Shuang, and Zhu Yan, but he immediately realized that he did not know his Xiao Bai''s pseudonym this time.
"My name is Feng Bai. Nice to meet you all~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately introduced herself while giving a palm and fist salute to Gu Shengxin, Ling Shuang, and Zhu Yan.
It seems Tang Li Xue is in big trouble right now~! (>w<)

Chapter 708: On The Verge of War!
708 Chapter 708: On The Verge of War!
"Hello, I am Gu Shengxin~!" Gu Shengxin introduced himself while smiling politely at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Hi, Young Master Feng! I am Ling Shuang. You can just call me Xiao Ling~! You are too handsome!" Ling Shuang cheerfully said and winked yfully to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Greetings to Young Master Feng, My name is Zhu Yan. You can call me Sister Zhu." Compared to Ling Shunang, Zhu Yan was much more reserved and polite to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"You all do not need to be too restrained. This childhood friend of mine is a nice guy." Elder Yang happily muttered while embracing the perfect copy''s shoulder.
But the perfect copy smacked Elder Yang''s hand away while ring at him in anger.
Elder Yang could only put on a helpless and confused expression.
Gu Shengxin, Ling Shuang, and Zhu Yan chuckled at Elder Yang''s behavior, but they did not dare tough at him.
Previously, they thought Elder Yang was too cold and indifferent to everything.
However, they hadpletely changed their opinion on Elder Yang right now.
They concluded that Elder Yang acted like that to them because they were not close enough to him. Because Elder Yang was actually very friendly to his childhood friend, Young Master Feng Bai.
Gu Shengxin brought them all to the tea room and let the servants serve them some tea and cakes while discussing their next n to fight against the Beast Tide.
Gu Shengxin was actually very anxious about his mother and little sister, but he did not show it on his face. He always looked calm, cool, and collected on the outside.
Unfortunately, only Ling Shuang and Zhu Yan actively discussed that matter with Gu Shengxin seriously while Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Elder Yang did not bother to think about it at all.
The perfect copy''s mind waspletely upied with thinking about how to find out if Zhu Yan was really Princess Yan Fei or not, and how to woo herter.
Meanwhile, Elder Yang was staring at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy while thinking about how to cheer her up and make her stop being angry with him.
Their discussion was really unproductive since Gu Shengxin''s true intention was actually to attract more support from Elder Yang and his childhood friend, Young Master Feng Bai, so they could bring more people to support him against the Beast Tide.
Yes, Gu Shengxin guessed that Young Master Feng Bai also had a huge background behind him like Elder Yang, so he wanted to obtain Feng Bai''s support.
After a few hours, the Gu Family''s guards had finished all of the recruitment registration and organized the wandering warriors and casual cultivators to act together with them.
They might have to face tens of thousands of beastster, while their total numbers were only a few thousand at most.
If they acted rashly without good coordination, they would be swallowed by the Beast Tide in an instant and die without leaving any bones behind.
The army of human cultivators was heading out together from Garden City.
But only Gu Shengxin, Ling Shuang, Zhu Yan, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, and Elder Yang were traveling in the luxurious carriage while the others were only riding flying treasures like flying swords, flying discs, and so on.
When the sun was almost set, they finally reached their destination.
It was a green valley filled with so many beasts as far as the eyes could see.
The scene was too shocking for many wandering warriors and casual cultivators. Their previous burning courage and morale instantly dropped to the freezing point.
"Holy cow~! How many beasts are there?! We might not even finish counting them until tomorrow morning, right?"
"Can we even win against them? I mean look at their size. Many of those beasts are evenrger than three-floor buildings!"
"Ugh, is it already toote if I want to take back my registration form and withdraw from here?"
"Fart~! You have already taken a third of the payment, so how could Gu Family let you just retreat from here right now!"
"But I... I still have a wife and three small children to feed... So, how could I throw my life here?!"
Just from those beasts'' bloody aura and savage looks, most of the army of human cultivators already got terrified so much before they could even fight against those beasts.
It would be extremely bad if they fell apart before they faced those beasts, so Gu Shengxin decided to step forward and say something to them.
"Calm down everyone~! You do not need to feel afraid and worry! My Gu Family''s guards will be the vanguard and lead you to face those beasts!"
"They might look scary, but they arepletely brainless. With our weapons, spells, and strategy, I believe we can defeat them easily!"
"My Gu Family will also increase the reward by two... No, three folds~! Even if some of you have an ident and lose your life in this battle, my Gu Family will make sure to give properpensation to your familyter!"
Gu Shengxin began his speech to encourage all of the wandering warriors and casual cultivators.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy secretly snorted at Gu Shengxin while mockingly in her heart: ''Tsk~! He speaks so grand and generously, but he actually just wants to use these people as his cannon fodder. Who knew if he would reallypensate their familyter if they really died in this battle?!''
The perfect copy''s doubt was not groundless since no one would probably dare to ask the Gu Family for anypensation if no one from the Gu Family said anything about itter.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stared at the valley filled with beasts, but her expression did not change at all.
If she had not participated in the Foxes Hunting Festival, she might amazed and intimidated a bit by this scene.
But she had already seen far more astonishing Interracial War in one of Foxes Hunting Festival''s games. Compared to the war between millions of foxes versus millions of human cultivator armies in that game, this scene was only a child''s y.
The funny thing was that she was actually on the human side this time...
Elder Yang approached Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from behind and worriedly said to her: "Xiao Bai, I know this is only your clone, but you really do not need to fight against those beasts. You can just stay behind me and..."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes as she quickly interrupted Elder Yang''s words by saying coldly to him: "I am not here to y around with you. You do not need to worry about me and just do your own job."
Elder Yang sighed and answered: "Xiao Bai, I do not even understand why are you so angry at me. You can just say it to me, so I can fix itter."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stopped paying any attention to Elder Yang and began to think carefully about how to impress Zhu Yanter.
.....
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan actually secretly followed their group from behind.
The reason was of course because the real Tang Li Xue could not be too far away from her perfect copy, or her perfect copy would be automatically un-summoned.
Luckily, Tang Li Xue''s Spirit Stat had increased by many timespared to before, so the allowed distance between Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy had also increased by many times.
At least, those Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect who followed those groups of people would not be able to detect them.
"Instructor Lan, do we need to do somethingter to help Xiao Xue''s clone?" Bingbing asked Instructor Mei Lan curiously.
Instructor Mei Lan thought for a while and nodded while replying: "Let''s go~! I will bring you all to greet the leader of that Beast Tide. All of you do not need to say anything and just leave everything to meter."
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox widened their eyes in shock and disbelief when they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
But they still decided to believe Instructor Mei Lan and followed her closely from behind as they headed to the valley filled with tens of thousands of beasts.
ROOOOOOOOAAAAARR~!
When their group approached the valley, many resting beasts stood up and bared their fangs at them.
But Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox hastily took off their cloak to show their fox ears and tails to them.
Instructor Mei Lan took out her white jade identity badge from her space pouch and showed it to those beasts: "I am the envoy from the Fox n. I have something important to discuss, so bring me to see your leader now."
Those beasts instantly choked by their own saliva after they saw Instructor Mei Lan''s white jade identity badge.
Then those beasts began to push and fight each other to escort Instructor Mei Lan and her three students to meet their leader.
"Wow, the beautiful vixens from the Fox n?! Look at their shiny and silky furs, so beautiful~!"
"Unfortunately, they are currently disguising themselves as humans. I really want to see their true beautiful fox form so badly."
"Move away~! Let me as the most handsome beast here escort them to meet the leader~!"
"How dare you push me?! Do you want to die?!"
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression turned dark, while Tang Li Xue, Silly Fox, and Bingbing chuckled at their amusing behavior.
What is Instructor Mei Lan''s n to help Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy? We will see it in the next chapter~!

Chapter 709: Bribing!
709 Chapter 709: Bribing! After those beasts arguing for a while, It was a five-meter-tall brown bear who led Instructor Mei Lan and her group to meet the Beast Tide''s leader In the end.
The leader of the Beast Tide was actually a fifteen-meter-tall white lion.
The expressions of Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox instantly turned solemn as they raised their vignce to the maximum.
This fifteen-meter-tall white lion emitted extremely terrifying pressure and aura. The ring scar on his left eye made it even more intimidating.
There was no doubt that it was no longer on the level of Beast Lord or Rare-Grade Beast, it should be a False Spirit Beast!
Different from the False Spirit Beasts suppressed in Inheritance Ground Tablet, this fifteen-meter-tall white lion could fight using its full strength without any restriction.
The fifteen-meter-tall white lion red at their group sharply, then it slowly walked toward them.
Its every step made the ground tremble, so Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox became increasingly tense.
Who knew the fifteen-meter-tall white lion suddenly rushed toward Instructor Mei Lan all of a sudden?!
"Watch out, Instructor Lan~!" Tang Li Xue shouted in a flustered manner to warn Instructor Mei Lan.
But that fifteen-meter-tall white lion instantly halted its step right before it could crash into Instructor Mei Lan, and its size suddenly shrunk to two meters tall.
"Hey, It is actually the gentle beautiful fox, Lan''er~! Hehehehe... Long time no see, Lan''er~! I really miss you so much~!" The white lion bbered with a ttering smile on his intimidating face.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes after she heard the white lion''s ttery words while saying: "I see... So, you are the leader of this Beast Tide."
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox who wanted to make a move to help Instructor Mei Lan almost slipped and fell down when they saw the white lion''s sudden change of attitude.
"Bring four chairs here for our beautiful guests to sit~!" The white lion ordered to his nearby subordinates.
His subordinates were instantly dumbfounded by their leader''s unreasonable order as one of them, a wild boar, subconsciously replied: "Boss, we are beasts. We always sit and sleep on the ground. How could we have something like chairs?"
SMACK~!
The white lion pped the wild boar''s head while scolding: "Then cut down some trees and make some chairs right now! How could our dear beautiful guests sit on the ground like us?!"
10:03
The white lion pped the wild boar''s head while scolding: "Then cut down some trees and make some chairs right now! How could our dear beautiful guests sit on the ground like us?!"
When the white lion faced Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox again, he showed his friendliest smile again at them.
"Hey, are these your new students, Lan''er? They look much better than your previous students, especially that little cutie with silver furs. Woah, so dazzling and beautiful~!" The white lionmented as he observed Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox one by one, but his eyes shone much brighter when he saw Tang Li Xue.
Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to talk any nonsense with the huge white lion and asked seriously: "How many False Spirit Beasts are there besides you in this Beast Tide?"
"Including me, there are a total of four False Spirit Beasts in my Beast Tide. There are stinky Blood Bat, Brainless Stone Elephant, and Ugly Poisonous Toad. I think you definitely would not want to meet with any of them. Just say what you want to this most handsome and smart white lion king~! I will do my best to satisfy you~!" The white lion bbered again to promote himself in front of Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox stared at the white lion strangely, but the thick-skinned white lion pretended not to notice them at all.
Tang Li Xue thought that the other three False Spirit Beasts would surely want to beat up this white lion so badly if they heard this white lion''s previous words.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan thought that the overall strength of this Beast Tide was actually stronger than she expected.
Don''t think four False Spirit Beasts were too few!
Because of their enormous size, each False Spirit Beast could fight against several Nascent Soul Stage experts at once while crushing many weaker human cultivators easily!
Instructor Mei Lan nodded in satisfaction since the strength of this Beast Tide was strong enough. She could let them do some tasks to help Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy look good in front of Princess Yan Fei.
If the Beast Tide was too weak, and they could get crushed in the blink of an eye by that human cultivator army, then there was no need for her to discuss anything with them anymore.
Instructor Mei Lan took out a ck box from her space pouch and threw it in front of the white lion.
When the ck box automatically opened, there were actually filled with shiny stones inside.
Tang Li Xue stared curiously at the shiny stones and asked with a soft voice: "What are those shiny stones?"
"You do not know, Little Xue? Those are low-tier Vitality Stones. Just like spirit stones for human cultivators, Vitality Stones have the same function for us, Beast Race." Bingbing exined to Tang Li Xue while staring strangely at her.
Vitality Stones could be used by any beast to restore their vitality energy or purify the vitality energy in their body to make them stronger.
Almost all foxes in Myriad Foxes Academy, including Bingbing and Silly Fox were actually using most of their credits to buy Vitality Stones.
Tang Li Xue might be the only exception since she could use Spirit Stones to be stronger just like all human cultivators.
"This is the down payment. As long as youplete all tasks from me, I will pay you double this amount." Instructor Mei Lan stated to the White Lion.
The white lion''s eyes shone even brighter in excitement as he waved his paw and took the ck box in one sweep, then stored it in who knows where.
The white lion put on a ttery smile and praised Instructor Mei Lan again while patting his paw on his chest: "Lan''er, you are still as generous as ever. You do not need to worry~! You can just tell me which man makes you unhappy. This most handsome and smart white lion king will make him miserable until he begs you in tears to kill himter~!"
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and replied while taking a silver disc from her space out again: "It should not be a hard task for you to do."
Instructor Mei Lan injected her vitality energy into the disc in her grasp and Zhu Yan''s projection appeared in front of them all.
"We suspect this girl is actually the missing Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei, but she is currently falling in love deeply with a male human called Gu Shengxin." Instructor Mei Lan exined while disying Gu Shengxin''s projection.
The white lion nodded in understanding and hastily concluded: "Just from his annoying ugly furless face, I can easily see that male human is not a good one. I understand. So, you want me to kill that ugly furless male human, right? Don''t worry, Lan''er~! I will make sure that..."
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and interrupted him: "NO~! I want you and your subordinates to help my student''s clone look good in front of Princess Yan Fei, so she can woo Princess Yan Fei and make Princess Yan Feipletely forget about that male human."
This time, the white lion finallypletely understood Instructor Mei Lan''s intention.
The white lionughed while saying in an excited tone: "Bwahahaha~! I see, so that is your n! That is an easy thing to do! What script do you want? Saving the damsel in distress? The most powerful and handsome genius without equal? A hero sacrificing himself for a beauty?"
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly after she heard the white lion''s words.
''What the heck~?! Is this white lion a movie producer or scriptwriter in his previous life?! How the hell did he know so many cliche scripts?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in wonder.
Instructor Mei Lan and the white lion began to discuss the scripts they wanted to use to impress Princess Yan Fei vigorously.
After one hour or so, they finally concluded their discussion.
Instructor Mei Lan bid farewell to the white lion and brought her three students away from the Beast Tide before anyone from the human cultivator army could see them.
After Instructor Mei Lan and her three students were gone from there, the white lion quickly hid somewhere remote and took out the ck box to count the vitality stones he had obtained.
However, the white lion actually found a letter and an arrow-like treasure hidden at the bottom of the ck box.
The white lion frowned in confusion as he took the letter and read the content carefully.
The white lion chuckled as he murmured: "Interesting~! So, that Princess Yan Fei is not the only one who has a lovestruck problem. Oh, well~! That is not a problem I should worry about. As long as the rewards are generous enough. This most handsome and smart white lion king will do anything toplete any task~!
The white lion kept the arrow-like treasure, but he burned away the letter using his me.
Before the letter waspletely burned into nothingness, it could be seen that there was a faint image of Elder Yang drawn on that letter.
It seems Instructor Mei Lan has another intention. We will see what is it soon, so do not miss the next chapter~! (>w<)

Chapter 710: War Begins!
710 Chapter 710: War Begins!
.....
In the meantime, Gu Shengxin had sessfully convinced all of the wandering warriors and casual cultivators with his words and promise.
He even managed to raise their morale to another level!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only admit that Gu Shengxin''s brainwashing skill with his words was truly extraordinary.
It would be impossible for her to do it as well as Gu Shengxin without using her [Mystic Whisper].
In one hour or so, Gu Shengxin had already reorganized the wandering warriors and casual cultivators.
He cleverly divided those people and reassigned them under themand of the Gu Family''s guard captain.
At least their war would be much more coordinated in this way.
Since it would be suicide if these crowds of people just charged forward to fight head-on against that Beast Tide.
It was alreadymon knowledge that the Beast Race body was much tougher than any human.
The correct way to fight against those beasts was either casting any spells, throwing talismans, controlling flying weapons, or using any ranged martial arts to attack them from the mid to long distance.
Unless you are mentally retarded or tired of living, never fight any beast in melee range!
That was the rule of survival for every human warrior or cultivator.
Of course, powerful human geniuses like Gu Shengxin and Elder Yang were apletely different story altogether.
After more than two hours passed, all of their preparation had finally beenpleted, and Gu Shengxin led all of his guards including all wandering warriors and casual cultivators to charge closer toward the Beast Tide since their current location was still a bit too far from that Beast Tide.
"CHARGE~! KILL ALL OF THOSE BEASTS~!" Gu Shengxin shouted bravely as Elder Yang, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, and Zhu Yan followed closely behind him.
As for Ling Shuang, she did not have a high cultivation level, so she would only be their burden if she joined this war.
Gu Shengxin let her stay behind with their logistic team.
She and all of the people in the logistic team were protected by severalyers of advanced protection formations set up by the formation master before, so they should be safe.
"ROOOOOAAAAARRR~!"
Tens of thousands of ferocious beasts were clearly not a bunch of coward chickens.
They roared out loud as they angrily charged toward the iing human cultivator army without any fear!
Their bloodshot eyes and bloody mouths filled with sharp teeth were more than enough to intimidate most of the people.
BOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOMM~!
The human cultivator army stopped charging forward and began to throw any spells, weapons, talismans, or whatever they had to kill all of those beasts that charging toward them!
But Gu Shengxin, Elder Yang, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Zhu Yan, and all of the Nascent Soul Stage experts did not do anything yet, since it was not the right time for them to make any move.
Many of the iing beasts were killed by the rain of fierce attacks, but the rest were still fearlessly charging toward the human cultivator army.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
All of the beasts with ranged-type divine abilities also began tounch their counterattack toward the human cultivator army!
Thousands of spells and ranged elemental divine abilities shed head-on in mid-air!
This allowed all of the charging beasts to get close to the human cultivator army and attack them from melee range!
"ROOOOOOOOAAAAARR~! CRUNCH~!"
Many of the human cultivator army were instantly killed under those beasts'' fangs without any chance to resist at all and became their food instead!
This time, Gu Shengxin, Elder Yang, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, and Zhu Yan finally decided to make a move to prevent heavier casualties!
Gu Shengxin took out a small golden furnace from his spatial ring and threw it toward the group of beasts.
The small golden furnace suddenly erged many times until it reached more than ten meters tall!
BOOOOOOOMMM~!
More than a dozen beasts were crushed to meat paste by Gu Shengxin''s giant golden furnace.
But it was not over yet.
Gu Shengxin easily controlled his giant golden furnace and used it like a hammer to stomp other nearby beasts to death.
Zhu Yan took out a jade gourd from her space pouch, and then arge amount of water gushed out from her jade gourd like a fast-flowing river.
BWOOOOSSSH~!
The fast-flowing river washed away many beasts at once before they could get close to her or Gu Shengxin.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy opened her paper fan and used it to fan herself as she walked right beside Zhu Yan as if she was guarding her while Elder Yang stood behind the perfect copy''s back to protect her back.
ROOOOOOOOAAAAARR~! BAAAAANNG~!
Who knew that a five-meter-tall ck gori was actually powerful enough to knock away Gu Shengxin''s giant golden furnace?!
"Watch out~! Brother Sheng~!" Zhu Yan shouted to warn Gu Shengxin as she controlled the fast-flowing river to protect Gu Shengxin from the giant golden furnace that was thrown back toward him!
But the fast-flowing river was clearly not powerful enough to stop the giant golden furnace!
Gu Shengxin waspletely stunned and did not know what to do at all in this situation.
It could clearly be seen that the pampered Gu Shengxin did not have enough experience in fighting.
It was not strange at all because his profession was an alchemist who locked himself in a room for many days to concoct pills, so how could he have a rich fighting experience?!
Since there was no other way, Zhu Yan could only use her body as a shield to protect the stunned Gu Shengxin!
Right at this moment, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suddenly dashed forward toward the iing giant golden furnace!
"No, Xiao Bai~!" Elder Yang shouted in an anxious tone.
Previously, Elder Yang did not care at all about Gu Shengxin or Zhu Yan''s life, but Elder Yang was very anxious when his Xiao Bai suddenly rushed toward the thrown-off giant golden furnace!
In short, the current situation is like this... Gu Shengxin was in danger, so Zhu Yan tried to protect him, then Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rushed forward to save Zhu Yan, while Elder Yang chased the perfect copy closely from behind to rescue her from the giant golden furnace.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy secretly used her [Energy Maniption] to harden the paper fan in her grasp and imbued it with her [Sharp Edge Power].
[Paragon Sword Technique], Perpetual sh!
The sharpest sword Qi and sword intent umted in her paper fan exploded in an instant as she shed it toward the iing giant golden furnace!
CLLAAAAAANNNG~!
The giant golden furnace was Gu Shengxin''s precious Spirit Treasure, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy easily cleaved it in two with the paper fan in her grasp!
Elder Yang who wanted to rescue the perfect copy from the giant golden furnace halted his step in astonishment.
Elder Yang smiled softly at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy as he praised her: "Xiao Bai, you have grown much stronger again. It seems I must work harder to chase after you."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy put on a smug look and replied: "Of course~! I might lose to you before, but I will surely win if we fight again this time."
Elder Yangughed while patting the perfect copy''s head gently and said: "Of course, I also think so."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily smacked Elder Yang''s hand away while scolding him: "You stupid, don''t touch my head~! My ''hair'' will fall off~!"
"Oh, right... I am sorry. I almost forgot about that." Elder Yang chuckled as he immediately realized his mistake this time.
ROOOOOOAAAAARR~!
The five-meter-tall ck gori roared angrily as it charged swiftly toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
Elder Yang''s expression turned cold as he wanted to make a move to kill the ck gori who dared to attack his Xiao Bai.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately grabbed Elder Yang''s arm to stop him while whispering yfully to him: "Leave that big monkey to me~! I want to look good in front of that girl!"
Elder Yang was dumbfounded when he heard the perfect copy''s words.
''What does it mean to look good in front of that girl?! She should want to look good in front of me, right?'' Elder Yang thought in confusion.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Redirection Flow!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waved the paper fan in her grasp to parry the powerful fist attack from the five-meter-tall ck gori!
Just when she wanted to use [Tracing Counter] tounch a counterattack toward the five-meter-tall ck gori, but before her attack could even hit the five-meter-tall ck gori...
BAAAAAAAAAANG~! AAAWWWWOOOOO~!
The five-meter-tall ck gori suddenly got ''tossed'' more than fifty meters away!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "?!"
The five-meter-tall ck gori coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood as its breath became much weaker in an instant.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "???!!!"
The five-meter-tall ck gori stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with an expression filled with fear and horror, then it hastily kowtowed three times to beg for forgiveness and ran away cowardly as fast as it could.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "....."
Elder Yang, Zhu Yan, and Gu Shengxin approached Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with expressions filled with awe.
Lmao~! The power of money is much stronger than you all think, right?! (>w<)

Chapter 711: Gu Shengxins Extreme Rage!
711 Chapter 711: Gu Shengxin''s Extreme Rage!
Zhu Yan nodded at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a grateful smile on her beautiful face as she blurted out in a tone full of admiration: "Young Master Feng, I never expected that you are so powerful~! Oh, right... By the way, thank you very much for saving me."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy chuckled gently at Zhu Yan and replied: "You are too polite, Miss Zhu. We are allrades right now, so you do not need to feel indebted to me."
The perfect copy''s stunningly beautiful facebined with her dazzling gentle smile was extremely lethal to anyone regardless of their gender.
Even Zhu Yan was stunned for a while as if she was bewitched by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Then her face felt hot and turnedpletely red as she became very flustered and did not know what to do for a few moments.
''What is wrong with me? How could I feel like this from a man other than Brother Sheng?!''Zhu Yan thought in panic.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy saw Zhu Yan''s turn red, so she put her palm onto Zhu Yan''s forehead while asking innocently: "Miss Zhu, your face turns red. Are you all right? Are you injured or feeling sick? Please do not force yourself if you feel unwell."
"I... I am all right..." Zhu Yan murmured softly as her face burned even hotter by the perfect copy''s touch.
Both Elder Yang and Gu Shengxin were burning with jealousy when they saw Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy flirting with Zhu Yan.
Elder Yang hastily pulled the perfect copy''s hands from Zhu Yan''s forehead, while Gu Shengxin pulled Zhu Yan away from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
It could be said that the effect of the ck gori''s acting was extremely effective this time.
Not only did the ck gori make Gu Shengxin look weak by throwing his weapon, the giant golden furnace, back toward him and almost hurt Zhu Yan who tried to protect him, but it also managed to make Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy look very powerful and heroic in front of others.
It was clear that their first script, saving the damsel in distress plus making her man look useless was very sessful!
"I am sorry, Brother Gu. I have ruined your golden furnace." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy politely said to Gu Shengxin, but there was a sh of deep worry in her eyes. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
''Damn it~! I reflexively cut his golden furnace in two! That thing looks really luxurious and shiny, so it should be very valuable and expensive, right? What should I do if he asks me to pay for his golden furnace''spensation?! I have no more money to pay for it~!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought in panic, but she did not show it on her face at all.
''Urgh... Will my disguise as a young master with a profound background be uncovered soon just because of such an absurd thing?! Ais... I could really just block, catch, or kick away that golden furnace instead before!''Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought regretfully.
Fortunately, Gu Shengxin was too ashamed to ask for anypensation from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy after she saved both him and Zhu Yan from his own golden furnace before.
Gu Shengxin shook his head and said: "Young Master Feng do not need to worry about it. If not for Young Master Feng''s help in repelling my golden furnace, I and Miss Zhu would have already gravely injured right now. I should be the one thanking Young Master Feng for saving me and Miss Zhu before."
But Gu Shengxin still showed a sour expression when he recalled how close Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with Zhu Yan just now.
Then Gu Shengxin took out another identical golden furnace from his spatial ring.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "....."
The perfect copy waspletely speechless when she saw the identical golden furnace that Gu Shengxin took out.
"Brother Gu, how many identical golden furnaces do you have?" The perfect copy asked curiously.
"Not much, I only have another eight spares. These golden furnaces are made from Golden Spirit Metal, Fire Absorbing Sand, and Natural Affinity Ore as their main materials, so they are quite valuable and hard to make. I spend around 900 to 1,000 Mid-Tier Spirit Stones to make all of them." Gu Shengxin exined as he threw his golden furnace toward the nearby beasts again.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy blinked again and again, then she asked again: "Eh, what? I must have misheard it. So, how many Spirit Stones did you spend to make your golden furnace?"
"Uh, I spend around 90 to 100 Mid-Tier Spirit Stones to make one golden furnace." Gu Shengxin said again.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy almost slipped and fell down when she heard Gu Shengxin''s words.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy secretly felt really lucky and d that Gu Shengxin did not ask for anypensation from her or she might not be able to pay even a tenth of them.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy patted Gu Shengxin''s shoulder and stated: "Brother Sheng, you are really a good person."
''But I am sorry that I am not a good person, so I will definitely woo Zhu Yan and take her away from you.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy silently added in her mind.
Elder Yang became even more jealous when he saw Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy patting Gu Shengxin''s shoulder familiarly.
He grabbed her hand and pulled her away from Gu Shengxin and Zhu Yan.
But before Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could say anything to protest Elder Yang''s action...
"ROOOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRR~!"
An earth-shaking roar echoed through the entire valley until it made the ground under their feet, and even the surrounding trees and grasses tremble violently.
The expressions of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Elder Yang, Gu Shengxin, and Zhu Yan instantly became even more solemn.
''Here they are~! Those four False Spirit Beasts finally make their move!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy concluded.
Those four False Spirit Beasts could freely change their own body size.
When they became smaller, it was not easy to notice them in the middle of the Beast Tide.
But when they nned to make their move, their bodies instantly erged and reached more than a hundred meters tall!
It was truly a shocking sight to behold!
The huge Blood Bat almost covered the entire sky above them!
The enormous Stone Elephant was even bigger than all the nearby mountains!
The gigantic Poisonous Toad spread green and purple miasma making the surrounding nts such as grasses, bushes, and trees wilt in the blink of an eye.
A humongous White Lion King looked extremely intimidating, majestic, noble, prestigious, and fearsome like a true emperor.
If the real Tang Li Xue did not see with her own eyes how this White Lion King was ttering and fawning over Instructor Mei Lan like a shameless attendant, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy would never believe that this majestic White Lion King could act like that.
All of the Nascent Soul Stage experts from Immortal Sword Sect, Alchemist Sect, and Gu Family immediately showed themselves as they hovered above the human cultivator army ready to fight against the four False Spirit Beasts at any time.
"Humans, how dare you ruin This King''s sleep?! Tell This King how you all want to die?!" The White Lion King''s majestic voice echoed loudly onto the entire valley.
Gu Family''s Nascent Soul Stage expert used a spell to amplify his voice and replied to the White Lion King: "You beasts, how dare you make a mess in the Alchemist Sect''s territory and kill so many of our people?! Return all of our people who are still alive in your hands right now, and we can spare your life!"
"Pffftt~! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA~! Did you guys hear what he just said?! BWAHAHAHAHAHA~! You... You are really a funny guy~!" The White Lion Kingughed out loud until the entire valley was trembling violently.
The Poisonous Toad sneered mocking while saying: "Are you guys stupid or what?! Return all of the people who are still alive in our hands?! Do you think we are like you humans who will take hostages and use them to threaten the others?!"
The Blood Bat also added whileughing evilly: "We are not like you guys! We never y with our food! All of the humans we find will only have one fate. That is to enter our stomach as our food! HAHAHAHAHAHA~!"
The Stone Elephant immediately tried to correct the Blood Bat''s words: "That should be incorrect, right? We eat with our mouth, so those humans should enter our mouth, not our stomach."
The other three False Spirit Beasts pped the Stone Elephant''s head in annoyance while saying in unison: "Shut up, you stupid elephant~! Who cares if they enter our mouth or our stomach?!"
The Stone Elephant could only put on a wronged expression.
Meanwhile, Gu Shengxin''s expression instantly turned pale after she heard the words from the four False Spirit Beasts, and he staggered slightly.
From what the four False Spirit Beasts had said, there was no longer any possibility that Gu Shengxin''s mother and younger sister could still remain alive.
"You damn beasts, I will kill all of you!" Gu Shengxin howled as he rushed forward blindly with bloodshot eyes in unbearable rage.
"Brother Sheng~!" Zhu Yan shouted as she tried to wake up Gu Shengxin who had already lost his mind right now.
Unfortunately, it was only a futile effort.
Zhu Yan could only chase after Gu Shengxin closely from behind and try to protect him from any beast attack.
All of the four False Spirit Beasts also realized Gu Shengxin''s reckless action.
White Lion King nced at the Blood Bat and gave a signal to it by winking one of his eyes.
The Blood Bat nodded at White Lion King as its body suddenly disappeared from everyone''s vision all of a sudden!
I have a mixed feeling when I write this chapter lol. I felt a bit angry and sad but also felt funny at the four False Spirit Beasts. (>w<)
godadi
Chapter 712: The Powerful Four False Spirit Beasts!
712 Chapter 712: The Powerful Four False Spirit Beasts!
The expressions of several Gu Family''s Nascent Soul Stage experts changed as one of them shouted in anger: "Damn Beast, you dare tounch a sneak attack on my beloved great-great-grandson?!"
All of the Nascent Soul Stage experts from Immortal Sword Sect, Alchemist Sect, and Gu Family shed as all of them made their move at the same time!
But the enormous Stone Elephant immediately used its body to block all of them like a giant wall!
Stone Elephant''s body size was the biggest among the four False Spirit Beasts.
Just standing in front of those Nascent Soul Stage experts like the biggest mountain had given such unbearable immense pressure on them.
All of the Nascent Soul Stage experts unleashed all of their most powerful attacks relentlessly to take down the Stone Elephant as soon as possible!
BAAAAANGG~! BOOOOOMM~! CLAAAANG~!
A chain of earth-shattering explosions urred non-stop for more than one minute.
Even all nearby mountains, rivers, andkes were razed to the ground by strayed attacks of those Nascent Soul Stage experts!
The dust and smoke slowly dissipated, and the Stone Elephant was actually still standing there unscathed and unmoved like an unbreakable giant mountain!
"Thanks for thefortable massage. Yawn~! It makes me really sleepy." The Stone Elephantzily yawned and muttered.
"Impossible~!" All of the Nascent Soul Stage experts eximed in shock and disbelief.
"What a bunch of rotten old fools?! Did they really think they could take down Brother Elephant with their meager attacks?!" Poisonous Toad mocked with a disdainful tone.
The Stone Elephant might look slow and dim-witted, but if anyone thought that he was easy to bully, then congrattions, you just made a big mistake.
The Stone Elephant was actually the second strongest among the four False Spirit Beasts after White Lion King!
Even the White Lion King himself needed to fight fiercely non-stop for many days if he wanted to defeat the Stone Elephant!
It should be known that White Lion King has the strongest offensive power among these four False Spirit Beasts.
While the Blood Bat had an unmatchable speed, and was the fastest among them. Unfortunately, its offensive power was too lowpared to Stone Elephant and White Lion King.
The Poisonous Toad was the weakest among them, but his miasma was very suitable forrge-scale battle since it was very corrosive, lethal, and almost impossible to detoxify.
All of these four False Spirit Beasts were clearly not easy to mess with, and all of them were extremely powerful!
Previously, the Poisonous Toad had secretly seized the chance when those Nascent Soul Stage experts attacked the Stone Elephant fiercely to spread his miasma.
Right now, his miasma haspletely covered this entire area and enveloped all of the Nascent Soul Stage experts!
Of course, those Nascent Soul Stage experts immediately used their spiritual energy to cover their entire bodies like a barrier, so that the miasma would not be able to invade and poison them.
CHI~! CHI~! CHI~! CHI~! CHI~!
Who knew that when the miasma touched their spiritual energy cover, it actually made a loud hissing sound as the miasma slowly corroded their spiritual energy cover?!
"This is bad! This green and purple miasma is too corrosive! We must get out of here as soon as possible!" One of the Nascent Soul Stage experts warned with a solemn tone. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Just when those Nascent Soul Stage experts wanted to hastily fly out of the miasma, the Stone Elephant dumbly asked: "Humans, why do you want to go home so early? Come on, massage me again!"
[Gravity Stomp]~!
Those Nascent Soul Stage experts suddenly felt their bodies became extremely heavy as if their entire bodies turned into a giant mountain!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Those Nascent Soul Stage experts fell down and pressed to the ground one by one by the Stone Elephant''s [Gravity Stomp]!
All of the Nascent Soul Stage experts from the Immortal Sword Sect, Alchemist Sect, and Gu Family werepletely suppressed by the Stone Elephant and Poisonous Toad.
White Lion King and Blood Bat have not even joined their fight yet!
But both White Lion King and Blood Bat never nned to join the fight since the very beginning because they already have much more important tasks to do.
So what if they really managed to kill so many human Nascent Soul Stage expertster?!
They would not get anything by doing that, okay?!
Those dazzling Spirit Treasures, Spirit Stones, spatial rings, and so on werepletely useless for beasts like them!
But if they couldplete all the tasks given by the richdy from the Fox n, they would be able to obtain rich rewards from her!
Meanwhile, the Blood Bat had already rushed in the direction of Gu Shengxin, Zhu Yan, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, and Elder Yang!
"Xiao Bai, let''s retreat from here~!" Elder Yang anxiously shouted to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Elder Yang did not care about Gu Shengxin and Zhu Yan as he nned to just bring his Xiao Bai as far as he could from here.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not listen to Elder Yang''s suggestion at all, and she hastily used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to chase after Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin.
The Blood Bat''s speed was truly too fast surpassing everyone''s expectations!
It instantly appeared right in front of their group as if it teleported!
"Die, humans~!" The huge Blood Bat shouted with a shrill voice as it ndished its w toward Gu Shengxin who had lost his mind and recklessly charged toward it with bloodshot eyes.
"Damned beast, how dare you kill my mother and younger sister?! I will kill you all!" Gu Shengxin shouted crazily while throwing all of his nine golden furnaces to the huge Blood Bat.
"Watch out, Brother Gu~!" Zhu Yan shouted in panic as she took out a blue shield from her space pouch.
BAAAAAAAANNGG~!
All nine golden furnaces shattered to pieces in an instant under the huge Blood Bat''s w attack!
But the huge Blood Bat''s w attack still moved toward Gu Shengxin without slowing down or weakening at all!
The blue shield in Zhu Yan''s grasp let out a mysterious blue light as it released arge amount of water.
BLUB~! BLUB~! BLUB~! BLUB~! BLUB~!
Therge amount of water formed a barrier that covered Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin!
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The huge Blood Bat''s w attack shed head-on with the solid water barrier!
Even though it managed to block the huge Blood Bat''s w attack, but the solid water barrier broke apart, and the blue shield in Zhu Yan''s grasp exploded to pieces!
PUUUUFFF~!
Both Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin were thrown off dozens of meters because of the shockwave and spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood from their mouths.
But Zhu Yan''s wounds were actually much heavier than Gu Shengxin''s wounds since She was the one who held the blue shield before and withstood the impact from the huge Blood Bat''s w attack.
The huge Blood Bat unleashed a second w attack toward Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin without any hesitation!
Just when the huge Blood Bat almost reached Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin...
Right at this moment, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly intercepted the huge Blood Bat''s second w attack before it could hit Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin!
"NO, Xiao Bai~! Are you crazy?! Stop it~!" Elder Yang shouted anxiously as he tried to stop the perfect copy''s reckless action.
[Wings of Freedom] activated~!
The speed of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instantly increased by several times after she activated [Wings of Freedom]!
She immediately set a destination point for her [Wind Burst Step]!
BWOOOSSSH~!
By using [Wind Burst Step], the perfect copy''s slender figure instantly disappeared from everyone''s vision and appeared right in front of the huge Blood Bat!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt her fist was almost crushed by the impact, but she immediately realized something was not right.
Normally, the perfect copy''s strength would not be able to match the blood bat, and she would be thrown off like Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin.
But right now, the huge Blood Bat had actually retracted all of its strength before its w touched the perfect copy''s fist.
The huge Blood Bat deliberately flew backward and crashed heavily onto the ground.
Elder Yang: "???!!!"
Gu Shengxin: "???!!!"
Zhu Yan: "???!!!"
The three of them dropped their jaw in shock and forgot to close their mouth for a while.
Even Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was stunned for a few moments by how strong she was right now... Oh, no... I mean by how good the huge Blood Bat''s acting skill was.
''Err, isn''t this too exaggerating?! Would the others believe it after they saw it? But that Blood Bat''s acting is surely amazing! It seems I have a worthy rival for Oscar winner.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought in awe.
The huge Blood Bat pped its wings and slowly hovered while saying in a disbelief tone: "This is impossible~! Human, how could you be so strong?"
Lmao~! So, there is still the continuation after the ck gori~! (>w<)
Chapter 713: Elder Yangs Interference!
713 Chapter 713: Elder Yang''s Interference!
"Ugly Beast, how dare you hurt my friends?! I will make you pay dearly for that~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied coldly while handsomely fanning herself with the paper fan in her grasp.
"Hahahahaha~! What a stupid human! Just because you can repel one of my w attacks does not mean you can defeat me?! Besides that, my specialty is speed, not strength!" The huge Blood Batughed mockingly at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"So what?! Your strength is already weaker than mine. Do you really believe your speed can be faster than me?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy uttered while sneering confidently.
.....
No one realized that while they mocked each other in front of others like mortal enemies, they actually also greeted each other warmly with telepathy.
"Hello, Master Blood Bat~! It''s nice to meet you! Err, what should I do again after this?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked the Blood Bat with telepathy.
"Hey, hey, nice to meet you too, handsome fox cub~! Master Blood Bat sounds too unfamiliar, you can just call me Grandma Bat, okay? You just need to try your best to fight with me. I will definitely make you look very cool so that Sea Beast Princess will surely fall for you soon~!" The huge Blood Bat replied cordially to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with telepathy.
"Hahaha~! You are so nice, Grandma Bat! Thank you very much for your cooperation! Then please be careful, I will start now..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy told telepathically to the huge Blood Bat.
"No problem, handsome fox cub~! Just say something nice about me to your teacherter, so your teacher might give me some extra rewardter. Hehehehe~!" The huge Blood Bat muttered tteringly while cackling.
"Don''t worry, Grandma Bat~! I will surely give you a 5-star review in front of Instructor Lanter~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said reassuringly while secretly giving an okay gesture to the huge Blood Bat.
Although the huge Blood Bat did not understand what a 5-star review was, but the huge Blood Bat still felt very satisfied since it sounded good.
.....
They ended their telepathic conversation as Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy charged swiftly toward the huge Blood Bat.
In front of the huge Blood Bat that was more than a hundred meters in size, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy who was only around 160cm tall was no different from an ant for the huge Blood Bat.
In the eyes of others, her small figure looked incredibly heroic and brave right now!
She was the only hope for the entire human cultivator army since she was the only one who could fight on par with one of those gigantic four beasts!
Since the perfect copy still has the [Wings of Freedom]''s buff, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could move freely on the air like the huge Blood Bat!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hardened the paper fan in her grasp with her [Energy Maniption], then imbued it with [Sharp Edge Power].
[Chivalrous Sword Art], Trading Blow~!
The perfect copy attacked the huge Blood Bat with her paper fan!
While the huge Blood Bat brandished its w to counterattack!
BAAAAAAAANG~!
The perfect copy''s paper fan shed head-on violently against the huge Blood Bat''s sharp w!
Surprisingly, it was the huge Blood Bat who was lost once again!
The huge Blood Bat was thrown off a dozen meters, but it quickly stabilized itself in mid-air by pping its enormous wings.
Then the huge Blood Bat''s figure suddenly disappeared from everyone''s view as it flew with extremely fast speed in an instant!
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also increased her speed even more to match the huge Blood Bat''s speed!
BANG~! BOOM~! BANG~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BANG~!
Both of them kept trading blow so fiercely on the sky again and again!
Ear deafening shing sounds continuously echoed throughout the entire valley as they kept trading blows at extremely high speed!
Everyone''s eyes could not even keep up with their speed anymore.
The human cultivator army could only silently pray that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy would be able to win against the huge Blood Bat since no one dared to think that they were strong enough to fight against that huge Blood Bat.
They already knew beforehand that there were four powerful enormous beasts on the Beast Tide''s side.
The human cultivator army could also see from afar that even so many Nascent Soul Stage experts were currently having great difficulty fighting against two of the four powerful enormous beasts!
So, ording to the human cultivator army''s opinion, this enormous Blood Bat should have the strength equal to several Nascent Soul Stage experts!
It was already a great miracle that a young master in the Foundation Establishment Stage could fight on par with this huge Blood Bat!
The others might have no intention of helping Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but only Elder Yang was truly very worried about the perfect copy.
Even though Elder Yang knew that the one in front of him was only Tang Li Xue''s perfect clone, but he had already lost Xiao Bai once right in front of his eyes before, so how could he only stand here watching his Xiao Bai fighting without doing anything?!
Elder Yang gnashed his teeth as his obsidian ck eyes turned crimson like blood.
The Blood of Lust in his body reacted to his will and circted faster and faster as his strength and speed kept improving rapidly without anyone noticing it.
Then Elder Yang also suddenly shed toward the huge Blood Bat too to help his Xiao Bai! n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Thick ck Qi burst out from Elder Yang''s body!
Thick ck Qi covered Elder Yang''s entire body and took the form of a pitch-ck giant demon!
Asura Demon Sect''s true inheritance Technique - Asura Demon God''s Avatar~!
Previously in Quanhai City, Elder Yang could only condense a pair of Asura Demon God''s hands, but right now, he could condense the entire body of Asura Demon God''s Avatar with the Blood of Lust''s help!
Asura Demon God''s Avatar was actually a muscr pitch-ck demon with a pair of demonic horns and bat-like wings.
The size of this Asura Demon God''s Avatar was also more than one hundred meters tall, so in terms of size, it was not losing at all to the huge Blood Bat!
The Asura Demon God''s Avatar shed toward the huge Blood Bat, and it threw a heavy fist toward the huge Blood Bat!
BOOOOOOMM~!
The huge Blood Bat waspletely caught off guard, and its face was punched heavily by Asura Demon God''s Avatar!
The huge Blood Bat was thrown off hundreds of meters until it crashed onto the nearby green hill!
"Wha... What the heck is that ck and huge thing?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in shock.
"Xiao Bai, it''s me~! Let''s defeat this bat together~!" Elder Yang''s masculine voice came out from within the Asura Demon God''s Avatar.
"You are... yboy Yang?! How could you... err, be so ugly like this?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked curiously.
Elder Yang: "....."
He suddenly lost all of his will to fight and wanted to get out of this Asura Demon God''s Avatar right away after Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said he was so ugly right now.
The huge Blood Bat pped its enormous wings and hovered in the sky again while staring curiously at the Asura Demon God''s Avatar.
''I see... There is no mistaking that he is our target, the male human genius. The peak of the Core Formation Stage with the strength of the High-Level Nascent Soul Stage. Tsk, tsk, tsk... So amazing~! Unfortunately, such a supreme genius is fated to die early here. Kekekekeke~!'' A creepy sneer appeared on the huge Blood Bat''s dreadful face.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waspletely unaware of the huge Blood Bat''s thoughts, she stared at Elder Yang displeasantly since she thought that Elder Yang would ruin the script where she would look cool in front of Zhu Yan at this rate.
"Go away~! I do not need your help, yboy Yang!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy impolitely tried to drive away Elder Yang.
But Elder Yang felt very happy instead because he thought that his Xiao Bai was very worried about his safety.
"Xiao Bai, you do not need to worry about my safety. I am very strong right now~! If we work together, we will definitely be able to defeat this bat monster!" Elder Yang said to convince Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes as she thought irritatingly: ''What the heck?! What is the point of defeating Grandma Bat together with you?! I want to defeat Grandma Bat alone to look cool in front of everyone and Zhu Yan! Argh... As I thought, this guy is so annoying~!''
Before Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could argue with Elder Yang about it, the huge Blood Batughed out loud and mocked: "Pffftt~! Kekekeke~! You think you can really defeat me by fighting together! Then let me see how powerful you two are~!"
The huge Blood Bat''s figure disappeared as it shed toward the Asura Demon God''s Avatar at extremely high speed!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
The huge Blood Bat no longer held back this time and attacked the Asura Demon God''s Avatar rapidly without any shred of mercy!
Just in the blink of an eye, the huge Blood Bat should have already attacked the Asura Demon God''s Avatar swiftly with its ws many hundreds of times!
The enormous body of Asura Demon God''s Avatar tore at many parts by the huge Blood Bat''s rapid w attacks, but it quickly recovered as usual again!
As long as Elder Yang still had spiritual energy in his body and used it to supply the Asura Demon God''s Avatar, then his Asura Demon God''s Avatar was theoretically immortal and could recover endlessly from any damage!
Lmao, Elder Yang joined the fray only to ruin Tang Li Xue''s deed~! And also, it seems that Blood Bat has another n for Elder Yang!
Don''t miss the next chapter since it would certainly be more interesting~! (>w<)
Chapter 714: Huge Blood Bats True Power!
714 Chapter 714: Huge Blood Bat''s True Power!
Of course, If the huge Blood Bat could somehow attack Elder Yang who controlled the Asura Demon God''s Avatar from inside, then it would be apletely different matter.
The Asura Demon God''s Avatar clenched its fist and threw another heavy punch toward the huge Blood Bat, but the huge Blood Bat easily dodged it this time.
The first punch managed to hit the huge Blood Bat because it was caughtpletely off guard by the sudden appearance of Asura Demon God''s Avatar.
The huge Blood Bat''s specialty was its extremely high speed. Even the other three False Spirit Beasts would not be able tond a hit on the huge Blood Bat so easily once it got serious.
But continuous rapid movement at extremely high speeds was very taxing to the body, furthermore, the Blood Bat was increasing its body size by many times right now.
Elder Yang had already seen through the Blood Bat''s ws since the very beginning after his Xiao Bai fought against the Blood Bat for a few rounds before.
Unfortunately, Elder Yang would never expect that the Blood Bat was actually holding back so much of its strength when it fought against Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy before.
And now, the huge Blood Bat was about to go all out to fight against Elder Yang and his Asura Demon God''s Avatar with all of its strength!
The huge Blood Bat suddenly took a deep breath until its chest bloated, then...
[Sonic Wave Scream]~!
SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECCHHH~!
Earth-shattering sound waves emitted by the huge Blood Bat spread around and destroyed everything around it to dust!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! N?v(el)B\\jnn
The surrounding mountains, rivers, and hills exploded, while all the nearby living creatures were crushed into blood mist!
Even Elder Yang inside the giant Asura Demon God''s Avatar was affected and currently had bleeding from his seven orifices!
Without protection from his giant Asura Demon God''s Avatar, Elder Yang''s fate might be the same as those other nearby living creatures and crushed into blood mist too!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had already sensed that the huge blood bat would unleash something extremely dangerous with her [Extrasensory Perception] a few seconds ahead of time.
She did not have enough time to warn Elder Yang since she already hastily moved to protect Zhu Yan first with a transparent barrier created from [Energy Maniption] plus [Reflective Barrier] she copied from the khaki-colored fox in Foxes Hunting Festival.
Strangely, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was not affected at all by the huge blood bat''s [Sonic Wave Scream].
10:36
While Zhu Yan dragged her injured body and used it as a shield to protect the fainted Gu Shengxin. Both of them were also unaffected by the huge blood bat''s [Sonic Wave Scream].
It seemed that the huge blood bat could perfectly control whoever it wanted to attack with its divine ability.
Even though the human cultivator army was already standing so far away from there, but many cultivators with lower cultivation levels were still severely injured or even killed by the huge blood bat''s [Sonic Wave Scream]!
The power of the huge blood bat''s [Sonic Wave Scream] was extremely devastating like a weapon of mass destruction!
The White Lion King, who was watching their battle from afar, gnashed his fangs and grumbled in dissatisfaction: "That damn stinky hot-headed bat~! I only tell it to pretend to fight fiercely against them for a while. Why is it fighting so seriously right now?!"
"If that damn stinky bat dares to identally hurt our client, I will definitely tear it apart by myselfter!" The White Lion King muttered viciously with an angry expression.
"No, I can''t wait any longer~! Once that damn stinky bat lost its mind, it would start to attack everything indiscriminately! It looks like I have to speed up the n to the next phase." The White Lion King stated as he made his massive-sized body shrink rapidly.
The White Lion King''s body kept shrinking until it reached kitten size, and then he activated his stealth-type divine ability to turn his bodypletely invisible.
Nobody would probably expect that the most majestic and noble looking White Lion King, the strongest one among the four False Spirit Beasts, would actually sneak around invisibly like a thief right at this moment.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy worriedly checked the condition of Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin who had passed out right now.
After making sure that Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin were all right and only suffered some internal injuries, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy decided to use two of her [Talisman of Regeneration +3] on both Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin.
Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin''s condition improved rapidly and became a lot better thanks to the effect of Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Regeneration +3].
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in relief, but she began to worry about Elder Yang''s dire situation when she saw the battle situation between the huge Blood Bat and the giant Asura Demon God''s Avatar.
Elder Yang had been hit very hard by the [Sonic Wave Scream]''s huge Blood Bat since he was the closest to the huge Blood Bat right now.
Elder Yang felt his brain was still vibrating violently because of the [Sonic Wave Scream], and his consciousness was extremely blurry as if he could really pass out at any time.
He could not control the giant Asura Demon God''s Avatar with his current condition, so the Asura Demon God''s Avatar staggered back and fell down until it was lying on the ground.
"yboy Yang~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shouted in an anxious tone.
But the huge Blood Bat did not n to stop until there yet!
It dived down and brandished its sharp w to the center of the Asura Demon God Avatar''s chest where Elder Yang hid himself!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could no longer remain silent at this point, or Elder Yang might really get killed by the huge Blood Bat''s w soon!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily created a destination point in front of the Asura Demon God Avatar''s chest!
[Wind Burst Step]~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instantly appeared right in front of the Asura Demon God Avatar''s chest as if she had teleported!
Then she created twoyers of defense, a transparent barrier with her [Energy Maniption] and [Reflective Barrier], to protect the Asura Demon God Avatar''s chest!
BAAAAAAAAANG~!
The transparent barrier created from [Energy Maniption] shattered like fragile ss, but the [Reflective Barrier] sessfully repelled the huge Blood Bat''s w!
The huge Blood Bat was thrown back several dozens of meters, but it quickly pped its wings to stabilize itself in mid-air.
"What are you doing, handsome fox cub?! Why do you want to protect that male human?!" The huge Blood Bat talked to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with telepathy, but its tone was full of impatience and annoyance.
"I am sorry, Grandma Bat. But this person is my friend, so I cannot let you kill him just like that in front of me." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied in a solemn tone with telepathy.
"Then let''s see how long you can protect that male human from me~!" The huge Blood Bat stated with a vicious tone.
The Blood Bat''s huge figure suddenly disappeared once again from the perfect copy''s vision, but she did not panic since she could still sense the Blood Bat''s every movement clearly with her [Extrasensory Perception].
If it was a head-on life or death battle, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy might not dare to fight against such a powerful False Spirit Beast like this huge Blood Bat.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy knew perfectly that the huge Blood Bat would not dare to hurt her, so she was not afraid to fight against the huge Blood Bat.
The perfect copy''s spection might bepletely right.
The huge Blood Bat might not dare to hurt her, but the huge Blood Bat''s target to kill was Elder Yang from the start, not her!
[Phantom Phase w]~!
The huge Blood Bat''s w turned transparent and suddenly extended toward the Asura Demon God Avatar''s chest!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tried to block the huge Blood Bat''s [Phantom Phase w], but its [Phantom Phase w] could actually pass through all of the defense barriers she set easily and shed directly toward the Asura Demon God Avatar''s chest!
''Damn it~! What the hell is that strange attack?! It can actually pass through any defense like my [Ethereal Form]!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in surprise and disbelief.
That was actually notpletely correct...
Her [Ethereal Form] could only pass through any solid object, but it could not pass through the defense imbued with any type of energy such as spiritual energy, fire energy, vitality energy, and so on.
However, the huge Blood Bat''s [Phantom Phase w] could do it! It could pass through any defense imbued with any type of energy!
Just when the huge Blood Bat''s [Phantom Phase w] almost reached the Asura Demon God Avatar''s chest...
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, who hadpletely run out of ideas, decided to use her new divine ability!
[Ster Banishment]~!
And unexpectedly, the target of her [Ster Banishment] was Elder Yang inside the Asura Demon God Avatar''s chest!
The reason why Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy decided not to use her [Ster Banishment] on the huge Blood Bat''s [Phantom Phase w] was because of her [Ster Banishment]''s effect.
[Ster Banishment]: Borrowing the power of the stars to temporarily banish any target to the empty starry sky. (The duration of the Ster Banishment depends on the difference between the strength of the user and the target.)
Sorry, the chapter was released a few hourste. I have a slight fever and headache sincest night. I tried to force myself to write but could only finish it right now.
If there were some mistakes, you could tell me from paragraphments, and I will fix itter. (>w<)
Chapter 715: Void Piercing Arrow!
715 Chapter 715: Void Piercing Arrow!
The strength difference between her and the huge Blood Bat was clearly too far apart!
Moreover, she was currently still in her human form which means her overall stats were only a thirdpared to her in fox form.
The duration of her [Ster Banishment] was probably less than even 1 second if she used it on the huge Blood Bat.
So, the perfect copy''s best option was to use the [Ster Banishment] on the unconscious Elder Yang instead.
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The huge Blood Bat''s [Phantom Phase w] pierced the Asura Demon God Avatar''s chest, leaving a big gaping hole!
The perfect copy''s heart almost jumped out of her chest when she saw that scene.
"I have missed?! No way~! Wait, what... is that?" The huge Blood Bat eximed in astonishment.
The huge Blood Bat and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy saw a ball of dazzling light inside the gaping hole in the Asura Demon God Avatar''s chest.
"So, this is the power of [Ster Banishment]..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy murmured in awe.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy temporarily banished the fainted Elder Yang with her [Ster Banishment], but there was actually a ball of dazzling light like a star that reced him.
Furthermore, the huge Blood Bat''s [Phantom Phase w] got burned by that ball of dazzling light and evaporated into nothingness.
It was clear that the ball of dazzling light was far from simple.
After several tens of seconds or so, the [Ster Banishment]''s duration was finally over, so the ball of dazzling light disappeared, and the unconscious Elder Yang came back again.
"I see... So, this is one of your divine abilities, handsome fox cub. What a strange divine ability!" The huge Blood Batplimented Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with telepathy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy approached the unconscious Elder Yang while taking out another [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from her space pouch and throwing it to the unconscious Elder Yang.
Once [Talisman of Regeneration +3] touched Elder Yang''s body, it immediately activated and slowly healed all of his severe internal wounds.
"Grandma Bat, this should be enough, right? Zhu Yan... I mean Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei has already fainted, so we do not need to pretend to fight anymore." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy helplessly said telepathically to the huge Blood Bat while trying to persuade it.
"Humph~! It was that male human who dared to attack me first! I only tried to... Oh, well, forget it... That is not important anymore." The huge Blood Bat muttered as it realized that it just messed up the White Lion King''s arrangement by fighting a bit too seriously just now.
The huge Blood Bat instantly fell into panic and did not know what to do to fix its mistake.
''Oh, sh*t~! That big cat will definitely beat me upter~! But it still does not matter as long as he does not reduce my shareter because of this.'' The huge Blood Bat silently groaned in remorse.
Right at this moment, Elder Yang regained his consciousness and slowly stood up.
"Cough, cough, cough... Xiao Bai... Cough, Are... Are you all right?" Elder Yang muttered weakly in a tone filled with worry while coughing out several mouthfuls of blood.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hurriedly held Elder Yang''s arm and helped him to stand up.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were deeply moved when they heard the first thing Elder Yang asked was actually their condition.
"I am all right... yboy Yang, I am really sorry." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt very guilty because it all started with her pretending to fight against the huge Blood Bat alone to look cool in order to impress Zhu Yan.
Elder Yang shook his head while smiling ironically and said: "You do not need to apologize. It''s not your fault at all."
Elder Yang muttered again in a tone filled with shame and regret: "It should be my fault... I already swore to protect you forever before, but I could not even..."
Before Elder Yang could finish even his words...
PPUUUUUFFF~!
Elder Yang suddenly spewed arge amount of blood from his mouth.
"yboy.... Yang?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt something was not right with Elder Yang only to find that there was a football-sized hole in his chest!
It happened too suddenly!
Even the perfect copy''s [Extrasensory Perception] did not sense anything at all!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy saw a ck arrow full of cracks stuck in the ground not far from there, but the ck arrow disintegrated into nothingness leaving nothing behind in the blink of an eye.
But it was clearly not the time for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to worry about that mysterious arrow since Elder Yang''s current situation was extremely grave!
Elder Yang fell onto the ground weakly as blood kept pouring out profusely from his gaping wounds and his mouth!
"yboy Yang~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy screamed in panic and worry.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly took out several [Talisman of Regeneration +3] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2] from her space pouch with trembling hands.
Some of the talismans even fell and scattered onto the ground, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not care and used all the talismans in her grasp on Elder Yang.
Unfortunately, even her [Talisman of Regeneration +3] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2] were no longer effective on the dying Elder Yang.
The huge Blood Bat was currently also confused about what it had to do right now, but the White Lion King''s telepathic voice entered its mind all of a sudden: "You cane back and help the Stone Elephant and Poisonous Toad now."
"Understood~!" The Blood Bat''s huge figure shed swiftly toward the ce where the Stone Elephant and Poisonous Toad were currently fighting against all of the Nascent Soul Stage Experts.
The invisible tiny-sized White Lion King also hastily got out from the crowd of human cultivator army without anyone noticing him at all.
"Sigh... It was really such a huge waste to use that ''Void Piercing Arrow'' only to kill a young brat at the Core Formation Stage~!" White Lion Kingined in heartache.
''Void Piercing Arrow'' was actually a one-time consumable spirit weapon created by humans to fight against Spirit Beast.
''Void Piercing Arrow'' was extremely precious because all of the materials used to make ''Void Piercing Arrow'' were extremely rare and valuable. Even the process to make it was very cumbersome and the sess rate was too low.
But despite all of those, ''Void Piercing Arrow'' was clearly worth every effort and price to create it, since it waspletely unavoidable, unblockable, undetectable, and had astonishing pration power!
In this Lightwind Continent, every ''Void Piercing Arrow'' has the same threat as a nuclear weapon in Tang Li Xue''s previous world.
All Five Virtuous Sects surely have ''Void Piercing Arrow'', but not more than five arrows.
That was also the reason why Beast Tide did not dare to wantonly challenge those Five Virtuous Sects in front of their gate.
Even White Lion King himself must admit that he would certainly get severely injured if this ''Void Piercing Arrow'' was used on him instead.
Normally, no one would use this ''Void Piercing Arrow'' on a mere young brat at the Core Formation Stage like this.
It was clearly an overkill like using a nuclear bomb that could destroy the enemy base to kill a tiger cub instead.
Despite his reluctance to use the ''Void Piercing Arrow'' wastefully like that, White Lion King also understood Instructor Mei Lan''s intention really well.
Instructor Mei Lan clearly wanted to kill that young genius brat and throw the me onto the human side, killing two birds with one stone.
"But to think that youngdy from the Fox n could even have something like ''Void Piercing Arrow''... No, I am pretty sure that youngdy fox does not only have one ''Void Piercing Arrow''. Fox n, what a fearsome race~!" White Lion King murmured in awe and fear as he headed back to his Beast Tide army.
.....
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue, who sat on the grassy ground with Bingbing, Silly Fox, And Instructor Mei Lan, slowly stood up while kept staring in the direction of her perfect copy and Elder Yang.
The others were currently focused on watching the fierce battle between the enormous Stone Elephant and the giant Poisonous Toad against more than a dozen Nascent Soul Stage experts from afar, but they immediately noticed Tang Li Xue''s sudden movement.
Bingbing, Silly Fox, And Instructor Mei Lan stared curiously at Tang Li Xue. Then Bingbing asked: "What''s wrong, Xiao Xue? Do you want to go to relieve yourself? Then I will apany you~!"
Drip~! Drip~! Drip~! Drip~! Drip~!
Tears trickled down from Tang Li Xue''s mesmerizing topaz blue eyes.
Right at this moment, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hadpletely run out of ideas to save Elder Yang''s life! n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Elder Yang''s life force was slipping away rapidly with each passing second!
But strangely, there was no fear reflected in his ck obsidian eyes.
Elder Yang kept staring at the stunningly beautiful face of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy as if he wanted to imprint every inch of her being into his mind, so he would never forget her even in the afterlifeter.
"Elder Yang, please hold on and be strong! You are a powerful man, aren''t you?! Damn it~! What to do?! I already used more than a dozen of [Talisman of Regeneration] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery], but they did not work at all!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy kept encouraging Elder Yang in a tone filled with anxiety and panic.
Would this really be Elder Yang''s end? We will see it in the next chapter~! (>w<)
godadi
Chapter 716: (Spoiler Title At the Bottom of This Chapter)
716 Chapter 716: (Spoiler Title At the Bottom of This Chapter)
Not only Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Regeneration] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery], but even the Blood of Lust in Elder Yang''s body had already been working beyond its limit to stop the bleeding and restore Elder Yang''s gaping wound in his chest!
Unfortunately, it was all in vain since the destructive power of the [Void Piercing Arrow] that was raging in Elder Yang''s body was too powerful!
Elder Yang''s vision became more and more blurry as his consciousness began to fade away.
Right at this moment, the male version of Tang Li Xue in front of him changed into the usual Tang Li Xue with charming topaz blue eyes, silky silver long hair, and a pair of fluffy silver fox ears on the top of her head.
Yes, the real Tang Li Xue just used [Swap] skill to exchange her position with her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue grasped Elder Yang''s right hand tightly while her extremely charming face was filled with tears.
Even the dying Elder Yang felt really guilty when he saw Tang Li Xue crying for him.
Elder Yang used hisst strength to raise his left hand and slowly wipe Tang Li Xue''s tears, but the blood on his hand stained Tang Li Xue''s peerlessly beautiful face instead.
"I... am... sorry... for... making... you... so...sad..." Elder Yang murmured softly in guilt at Tang Li Xue.
Elder Yang secretly felt d that Tang Li Xue did not remember any previous memories with him, or else she might have be even sadder than now.
Tang Li Xue shook her head while sobbing, but she suddenly felt a stinging headache in her mind.
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
The memories seal that the Fake Dragon put on Tang Li Xue''s mind had already cracked a bit before, but the small crack began to spread more and more until the entire memories seal finally shattered to pieces!
BAAAAAAANG~!
Tang Li Xue''s previous sealed memories suddenly flood back into her mind all at once!
Even though Tang Li Xue had not evolved into [Rare] Grade beast yet, but her Spirit Stat had already far surpassed the limit of the demonic beast or [Umon] Grade beast could have!
With the strong stimtion after watching Elder Yang''s current dying situation, Tang Li Xue was finally able to subconsciously break apart the memories seal.
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes again as she stared at the dying Elder Yang with a bittersweet smile on her stunningly beautiful face.
Tang Li Xue took off the silver mask that covered Elder Yang''s face.
Then she gently touched Elder Yang''s handsome and masculine face with her trembling palm while muttering in a tone filled with nostalgia: "I see... So, you are... my favorite concubine, Xiao Hei... No wonder I liked you so badly even without my memories with you, and I could not bear to kill or hurt you before."
Tang Li Xue wiped her tears and took a deep breath while trying her best to calm down.
Her desire to save her Xiao Hei''s life had grown so much stronger than ever before.
Every second was extremely important, so she knew that she would definitely lose Elder Yang soon if she kept crying without doing anything.
"Calm down, Tang Li Xue~!"
"Previously, you might be helpless to save your brother, but now, you have already be so much stronger than before."
"I do not believe that you still cannot save the life of your beloved one with all of your amazing abilities!"
Tang Li Xue muttered to encourage herself while patting her cheeks with her palms until leaving bloody handprints on her cheeks.
"First, I need to know the reason why my [Talisman of Regeneration +3] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2] could not heal Xiao Hei." Tang Li Xue said with a firm tone.
"I stillck a lot of medical knowledge and information rted to this matter. But it is already far toote to look for any rted medical knowledge or information about it right now. So, my only solution is to use my forbidden divine ability...[Paranormal Intuition]!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed as she murmured helplessly: "Sigh... So, it is my turn right now."
"I am sorry, but please help me." Tang Li Xue knew the dreadful feeling when she used [Paranormal Intuition] before, but she really had no other choice right now.
"Tsk~! I might never do it if it is for you, but if it is for our Xiao Hei... Then it would be a different matter. Just leave it to me~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy assuredly said while patting her chest.
Since they really did not have much time anymore, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy activated [Paranormal Intuition] right away without any hesitation.
[Paranormal Intuition]: Dive into the Sea of Knowledge and peek at the Law of Truth.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instantly felt extremely suffocated as if she had been thrown into a deep sea.
The entire deep sea was dazzling golden, and it consisted of countless minuscule golden runes and words!
But different from before, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately set her target to any rted information on how to cure Xiao Hei.
"IT WORKS~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy delightfully eximed.
Just like Tang Li Xue had spected before, this entire dazzling golden sea was actually the Sea of Knowledge that contained all the truth and knowledge of the entire realms!
Without specifying the knowledge she wanted to find, the entire Sea of Knowledge would rush into her mind and consciousness!
With her weak and small soul, mind, and consciousness, how could she bear the entire information contained in the Sea of Knowledge?!
Thus her mind and consciousness almost got crushed by the dazzling golden Sea of Knowledge before, and her soul almost got severely injured because of it.
Even right now, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could onlyst for a few dozen seconds at best, so she hastily digested the rted information given by the dazzling golden Sea of Knowledge.
The rted information appeared piece by piece in her mind like a fast-forwarded movie.
The invisible White Lion King the size of a kitten mixed among the human cultivator army and secretly threw a ck arrow toward Xiao Hei''s back from afar!
"That is... White Lion King? But... Why? Why did he do that to Xiao Hei?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt extreme rage rising from her heart, but this was not the right time for that since the information about the ck arrow began to enter her mind.
[Void Piercing Arrow]...
Human Race''s one-time consumable spirit weapon to deal against Spirit Beast.
It was a fearsome weapon that waspletely unavoidable, unblockable, undetectable, and had astonishing pration power!
It was made from extremely rare and valuable materials. The entire process to make it was also very difficult and the sess rate was too low.
In this entire Lightwind Continent, there were no more than thirty [Void Piercing Arrows] and most of them were in the hands of Five Virtuous Sects.
The materials needed and the several methods of making it are...
"No, damn it~! My time is not much, so you do not need to give any specific information about [Void Piercing Arrow]~! What I need the most right now is a way to save Xiao Hei instead~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy groaned in annoyance.
However, the information digested in the Sea of Knowledge could only be specified, but it could not be controlled at all.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy finally got an extremely crucial clue about why Xiao Hei could not be cured by her [Talisman of Regeneration] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery].
There was actually the Profound Law of Destruction contained in the [Void Piercing Arrow]!
Once [Void Piercing Arrow] pierces its target, the Profound Law of Destruction contained in [Void Piercing Arrow] will move to its target''s body, while the [Void Piercing Arrow] as the previous container of the Profound Law of Destruction will be destroyed into nothingness.
The key to saving Xiao Hei''s life should be how to get rid of the Profound Law of Destruction that was wreaking havoc in his body right now!
As long as the Profound Law of Destruction was still destroying Xiao Hei''s body from the inside out, Tang Li Xue would never be able to heal him no matter how potent her medicine or talisman was.
In fact, if not for the Blood of Lust inside Xiao Hei''s body that kept fighting fiercely against the Profound Law of Destruction until now, Xiao Hei might have already died instantly after the [Void Piercing Arrow] prated his body.
But the Blood of Lust clearly would notst long without any supply of spiritual energy from Xiao Hei. Sooner orter, the Blood of Lust would be beaten and destroyed by the Profound Law of Destruction, and Xiao Hei''s life would also lost forever.
There were several ways to save him...
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could not hold on anymore before she finished digesting this most crucial information...
WEEENG~!
The equipment skill from her [Heaven Covering Ne], [Spirit Cover], automatically activated to protect her soul, mind, and consciousness from any harm caused by overusing [Paranormal Intuition] divine ability!
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still fell unconscious after that.
"Xue~!"
"Xiao Xue~!"
Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox worriedly ran to check Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy who suddenly fainted.
Instructor Mei Lan secretly gritted her pearl-white teeth and thought in great disappointment: ''Is that male human really so important to you until you are willing to go this far for him?!'' n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Chapter 717 717: Heat And Cold VS Destruction!
Chapter 717 Chapter 717: Heat And Cold VS Destruction!
?.....
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue had received all of the information that her perfect copy managed to obtain from using [Paranormal Intuition].
It was really a pity that her perfect copy passed out before she could obtain the most crucial information about how to save Xiao Hei.
But that surely would not make Tang Li Xue despair and give up!
Tang Li Xue suddenly thought about her [Substitute Doll].
She hastily took out one [Substitute Doll] from her system''s storage and tried to use it on the dying Xiao Hei, but it actually failed!
Tang Li Xue felt very unhappy because of it and started questioning her System: "System, exin to me! why I cannot use [Substitute Doll] on Xiao Hei?!"
[Host, please be more reasonable. Anyone with a brain can easily tell from its name that (Substitute Doll) is not a medicine.]
[(Substitute Doll) cannot cure any dying creatures. It can only protect healthy creatures from any harm by transferring the damage they receive to itself and preventing them from dying!]
"But it couldpletely restore me back to fully healthy after I got killed before!" Tang Li Xue tried to argue back.
[That is the (Substitute Doll)''s second function. It works like a save button in the game.]
[When Host used (Substitute Doll), Host''s current fully healthy condition will be saved. If the Host got killed, (Substitute Doll) would leave a fake body behind as a decoy while restoring your real body to the previous fully healthy condition and teleported you away to a safe ce.]
[As you can see, that person is already on the verge of dying, so (Substitute Doll) will not work on him!]
Tang Li Xue really regretted that she had not used one [Substitute Doll] on her Xiao Hei before this happened.
"Then what about [Recovery Pill]? Can it cure Xiao Hei?" Tang Li Xue asked again.
[Host, this System is not a doctor! Please seek someone with medical knowledge for help!]
Her System stopped responding to her after that.
Tang Li Xue was really angry at her System, but there was nothing she could do to force her System to help Xiao Hei.
Tang Li Xue took another deep breath to calm down herself as she began to think deeply.
"Since the main cause that makes Xiao Hei unable to recover is the Profound Law of Destruction, then I only need to somehow take the Profound Law of Destruction out from Xiao Hei''s body! But... how can I do that?" Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
A light of inspiration shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind as she suddenly recalled how she transferred Meng Yue''s vassal mark on her to Bing Shui in the Foxes Hunting Festival before.
"I can try to use [Energy Maniption] and reverse the process this time by transferring the Profound Law of Destruction from Xiao Hei''s body into my body!" Tang Li Xue murmured as her topaz blue eyes shone brighter like a pair of glittering stars.
Even though it was extremely risky, but Tang Li Xue thought that idea was really worth trying.
Tang Li Xue knew very well that she would also fall into a dangerous situation if she tried to do that, but she had many life-saving abilities and items, so she did not really worry that she would identally get killed by the Profound Law of Destruction.
3 times deathly blow''s protections from [Sun And Moon Aegis], 2 [Substitution Dolls], and [Twin Moon]''s [Damage Transfer] skill...
With all of these, Tang Li Xue could be said to have seven lives!
Tang Li Xue put her palm onto Xiao Hei''s Dantian and closed her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes as she was trying to use her [Extrasensory Perception] to sense the Profound Law of Destruction in Xiao Hei''s body.
It was not hard for Tang Li Xue to find the Profound Law of Destruction that wreaked havoc on Xiao Hei''s body because the Profound Law of Destruction was actually all over his body!
Not only did the amount of the Profound Law of Destruction in Xiao Hei''s body exceed Tang Li Xue''s expectations, but even its destructive power was also beyond her expectations.
Tang Li Xue also sensed that the Blood of Lust in Xiao Hei''s body had already been weakened so much after struggling fiercely against the Profound Law of Destruction''s onught until now like the flickering tiny spark on a candle that can be extinguished at any time.
"No wonder this [Void Piercing Arrow] can be a one-time consumable spirit weapon specifically used to deal against Spirit Beast. Its effect and power is too powerful!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a solemn expression.
Tang Li Xue immediately tried to control a small amount of the Profound Law of Destruction in Xiao Hei''s body with her [Energy Maniption], but who knew that its reaction waspletely different from Meng Yue''s vassal mark?!
Meng Yue''s vassal mark was not hostile to Tang Li Xue at that time, and its purpose was to protect Tang Li Xue from any harm instead, so it was very docile to Tang Li Xue.
That was the reason why Tang Li Xue could easily move Meng Yue''s vassal mark from her body to Bing Shui.
But the Profound Law of Destruction was extremely hostile to Tang Li Xue as if the only purpose for its existence was to destroy everything, so how could Tang Li Xue easily control it with her [Energy Maniption]?!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth as she snorted impatiently: "What a troublesome thing~! But I want to see how stubborn can you be?!"
Since [Energy Maniption] was not enough to move the Profound Law of Destruction in Xiao Hei''s body, Tang Li Xue decided to also use [Essence Devouring Technique]!
Tang Li Xue really never expected that her [Energy Maniption] and [Essence Devouring Technique] actually have such extremely highpatibility!
With [Energy Maniption] to assist, the devouring power of the [Essence Devouring Technique] had magnified many times!
"Amazing~! If I used both [Energy Maniption] and [Essence Devouring Technique] simultaneously on my enemies, does it mean I can suck them dry rapidly?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
When Tang Li Xue managed to devour the Profound Law of Destruction from Xiao Hei''s body little by little, another dangerous problem immediately urred!
PUUUFFF~!
Tang Li Xue suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood from her mouth!
"This damned Profound Law of Destruction is too harmful! I had only drained a little bit into my body, but it actually managed to damage some of my internal organs." Tang Li Xue murmured in a solemn tone while frowning deeper.
Of course, it was not a big problem for Tang Li Xue since her dual extremely powerful bloodlines, [High-Speed Regeneration], and [Sun And Moon Aegis] were already working to reduce the damage she received and heal any of her injuries.
Not to mention she still has [Quick Restore], that she could use at any time...
"But I have to think of a way to force this damned Profound Law of Destruction out of my body as soon as possible..." Tang Li Xue murmured, but before Tang Li Xue had time to think about how to expel the Profound Law of Destruction from her body, someone already lost its patience first and made its move!
"YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~!!!"
A deafening Phoenix''s cry resounded from within Tang Li Xue''s body!
"You damn bird~! What are you nning to do?! I am really busy right now, so I do not have time to y with you!" Tang Li Xue impatiently said to Phoenix of Pride.
The Phoenix of Pride was fuming in rage as it felt extremely disturbed by the foreign presence of the Profound Law of Destruction!
It was like an unfamiliar man suddenly barged into its bedroom and tried to upy its bedroom.
Thus the Phoenix of Pride also began to fight fiercely in great rage to expel the Profound Law of Destruction from Tang Li Xue''s body.
But how could it be that easy...
Just like water and oil, they could not do anything to each other at all.
However, this situation might notst for long since the Profound Law of Destruction will surely be stronger and stronger as Tang Li Xue drains more of it from Xiao Hei''s body into her body.
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly got another crazy but brilliant idea!
"Dumb bird might not be able to do anything to this Profound Law of Destruction, but what if I try to use Profound Law of Heat and Cold to counter it instead?! Just like using poison against poison, I will use Profound Law to deal against Profound Law!" Tang Li Xue stated with an excited tone.
While kept draining the Profound Law of Destruction from Xiao Hei''s body, Tang Li Xue began to run the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] to make her Profound Law of Heat and Cold sh against the Profound Law of Destruction in her body!
BAAAAAAANNG~!
Tang Li Xue spurted out another mouthful of blood from her mouth.
"Damn it~! The idea is very feasible, but unfortunately, my current Profound Law of Heat and Cold is still far too weakpared to the Profound Law of Destruction!" Tang Li Xue spoke in great disappointment.
Just when Tang Li Xue was ready to give up on that idea and tried to think of another new feasible idea, the angry Phoenix of Pride in her body suddenly resonated with her Profound Law of Heat!
Even the greatly weakened Blood of Lust in Xiao Hei''s body also resonated with her Profound Law of Cold!
Two of the Seven Earthly Desire Spirits, Pride and Lust, which symbolized two opposing elementals of fire and water, and always hostile to each other, were actually working together to face the Profound Law of Destruction right now!
Chapter 718 718: Yin And Yang Diagram!
Chapter 718 Chapter 718: Yin And Yang Diagram!
?Tang Li Xue''s Profound Law of Heat and Cold, which was too weak to fight against the Profound Law of Destruction, was instantly boosted by the me of Pride and Blood of Lust!
Tang Li Xue tried to make the boosted Profound Law of Heat and Cold sh against the Profound Law of Destruction in her body again, but something even more outrageous had actually happened!
Tang Li Xue thought that her [Energy Maniption] and [Essence Devouring Technique] have such highpatibility, and they could empower each other was already extremely good.
But who knew that [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], [Energy Maniption], and [Essence Devouring Technique] could actually resonate each other?!
It was something that waspletely out of Tang Li Xue''s expectations!
Tang Li Xue instantly became dumbfounded, and she herself no longer even knew what would happen next!
"Holy cow~! What the hell is this?! Is this good or bad?! Should I stop them or not?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in confusion.
The me of Pride and Blood of Lust resonated with the Profound Law of Heat and Cold...
The Profound Law of Heat and Cold was one of the chapters in [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], so it could be said the Profound Law of Heat and Cold was actually a part of [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form].
Right now, [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] has actually transformed me of Pride and Blood of Lust as the Profound Law of Heat and Cold into a Yin And Yang Diagram!
While [Energy Maniption] and [Essence Devouring Technique] devoured the Profound Law of Destruction from Xiao Hei''s body and Tang Li Xue''s body, then channeled it into the Yin And Yang Diagram!
"Holy cow~! What the hell is happening here?! Is this good or bad?! Should I stop them or just let them be?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in panic and confusion.
But when Tang Li Xue decided to interrupt the process...
The Yin And Yang Diagram began to spin slowly...
The destructive and explosive Profound Law of Destruction was actually absorbed by the Yin And Yang Diagram and converted into some unknown grey energy!
The me of Pride and Blood of Lust, who were temporarily reconciled to fight against the Profound Law of Destruction, instantly became hostile to each other again as they vied to consume this unknown grey energy!
The me of Pride immediately tried to stop Tang Li Xue''s attempt to interrupt the process as it expressed its joy and longing to consume more of that unknown grey energy!
"Is that smoke-like energy really good for you?" Tang Li Xue murmured in a doubtful and worried tone.
Tang Li Xue hesitated for a while, but she finally gritted her teeth and urged her [Essence Devouring Technique] to devour a tiny strand of the unknown grey energy.
[EXP Gained!]
[EXP Gained!]
[EXP Gained!]
*Ding~!
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level has reached the Rank 3 Foundation Establishment Stage!]
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and disbelief.
She had just breakthrough from Rank 1 to Rank 2 Foundation Establishment Stage yesterday, but just a tiny strand of the unknown grey energy could actually make her breakthrough to Rank 3 Foundation Establishment Stage in an instant!
"Holy cow~! This is actually really a good thing~! Hey, you two little greedy bast*rds leave some for me too~!" Tang Li Xue angrily said to Phoenix of Pride and Snake of Lust.
Tang Li Xue anxiously urged her [Essence Devouring Technique] to devour the unknown grey energy as much as it could.
But her [Essence Devouring Technique] was already working extremely hard with [Energy Maniption] to drain the Profound Law of Destruction from Xiao Hei''s body and Tang Li Xue''s body into the Yin and Yang Diagram to be converted into the unknown grey energy.
Because of that, the efficiency of [Essence Devouring Technique] to absorb the unknown grey energy for Tang Li Xue was severely limited right at this moment.
Meanwhile, the Snake of Lust had already be extremely weak because it had struggled against the Profound Law of Destruction to keep Xiao Hei alive until now.
In short, the Phoenix of Pride was the biggest winner among them right now, and it was greedily absorbing most of the unknown grey energy!
Both Tang Li Xue and Snake of Lust red angrily and enviously at the Phoenix of Pride.
At this point, Tang Li Xue, Snake of Lust, and Phoenix of Pride were only thinking of absorbing as much unknown grey energy as they could!
They even had alreadypletely forgotten that there was actually another person there besides the three of them.
After one hour or so, all of the Profound Law of Destruction had already been converted into the unknown grey energy andpletely absorbed by the three of them.
Tang Li Xue, Snake of Lust, and Phoenix of Pride sighed while feeling very dissatisfied because they thought the amount of Profound Law of Destruction was too little.
If their previous self heard their current thought, they might think that their future self was already insane.
In the end, Tang Li Xue could only absorb 5%, the Snake of Lust absorbed around 3-4%, while the Phoenix of Pride absorbed more than 90%!
The Snake of Lust returned to Xiao Hei''s body to digest the unknown grey energy it consumed and recover itself, while the Phoenix of Pride flew back into Tang Li Xue''s Dantian and went to sleep under the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl].
This time, it might take quite a long time for the Phoenix of Pride to sleep since it needs to digest a huge amount of the unknown grey energy it consumes.
The next time Phoenix of Pride awakes again, it will certainly be many times stronger than now!
Tang Li Xue checked her current harvest by opening her System log and her window status.
*Ding~!
[Congrattion! You have reached level 37! Stat Point +100, Skill Point +15]
[Congrattion! You have reached level 38! Stat Point +100, Skill Point +15]
[Congrattion! You have reached level 39! Stat Point +100, Skill Point +15]
"Well, not bad~! Not only did I increase my cultivation by one rank, but I also managed to increase my level by three." Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction.
Not only that, Tang Li Xue also managed to guess what the unknown grey energy was...
"That should be the legendary Primal Chaos Energy! I never thought that something I read from the novel in my previous life really existed!" Tang Li Xue eximed in awe.
It was said that there was only the infinite inexhaustible void before everything was created.
There was no beginning nor end.
Then the infinite exhaustible void gave birth to primal chaos.
Primal chaos was the source of change which generated Yin Yang energy.
Yin Yang energy became the basis of everything that gave birth to all life and death, creation and destruction, heat and cold, and so on.
But Tang Li Xue never thought that the Yin and Yang Diagram could actually reverse the process and transform the Profound Law of Destruction into pure Primal Chaos Energy for them to absorb!
That was nothing short of a miracle!
It could be said Tang Li Xue hadpletely turned the misfortune into a great fortune this time!
Tang Li Xue''s harvest was not only increasing her cultivation and level...
Cultivation Technique: Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art (Crimson Phoenix, ck Tortoise, White Tiger), Yin and Yang Chaotic Form (Profound Law of Heat and Cold [1.53%])
Tang Li Xue gasped in shock as she eximed in disbelief: "My Profound Law of Heat and Cold had increased from 0.04% to 1.53% in only one hour?!"
Since she could only get 0.02% for 8 hours of training every day, so 1.53% was equal to 38 days of training time for her!
Tang Li Xue angrily cursed the greedy Phoenix of Pride again in her heart.
She only absorbed 5% of Primal Chaos Energy, but she actually pushed her Profound Law of Heat and Cold to reach 1.53%...
Then what if she absorbed 95% of Primal Chaos Energy?!
Does it mean her Profound Law of Heat and Cold could at least reach 30%?!
Not to mention her cultivation level might reach the peak of the Core Formation Stage or even higher than that!
Tang Li Xue shook her head and murmured: "Sigh, let''s forget just about it... There is no use to cry over the spilled milk. My current harvest is already plentiful enough."
Moreover, Tang Li Xue also felt her [Energy Maniption] and [Essence Devouring Technique] had also improved significantly in both power and control, so she nodded her head in delight.
Tang Li Xue could not stop grinning happily as she stood up and patted away the dust on her clothes.
She nned to return to meet Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan, but she suddenly felt that something was missing.
"Eh, wait a minute... Why do I feel like I forgot something extremely important?" Tang Li Xue halted her step and thought carefully while frowning deeply.
"Oh, well... Since I forgot about it,it means it is not important." Tang Li Xue muttered with a silly smile as she took another step to head back to Bingbing and the others.
But after she only took a few steps, she suddenly heard a weak male voice from behind her: "Urgh... Xiao... Bai..."
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Tang Li Xue hastily turned around and ran to Xiao Hei while crying: "Sob, sob.... Xiao Hei~! I thought I had already lost you~!
If Xiao Hei knew that Tang Li Xue hadpletely forgotten about him just a few moments ago, he might really die on the spot right now.
Chapter 719 719: First Kiss!
Chapter 719 Chapter 719: First Kiss!
?Tang Li Xue hastily approached Xiao Hei with an extremely worried expression to check his current condition.
Tang Li Xue thought she did not need to do anything anymore since all of the Profound Law of Destruction in Xiao Hei''s body was already converted into Primal Chaos Energy by Yin Yang Diagram and absorbed by the three of them.
Logically, Xiao Hei''s condition should be able to recover quickly without the Profound Law of Destruction in his body.
However, it seemed Tang Li Xue was wrong because Xiao Hei had lost too much blood, and the current condition of his body was too horrible after the Profound Law of Destruction ran amok in his body before.
All of the meridians and blood vessels in his body were mutted beyond repair.
Almost all of his internal organs were broken to pieces.
So many of his bones were destroyed into fine powder.
Even his body vitality had been damaged very badly.
The current Xiao Hei was like a fragile flower that was slowly disintegrating and withering.
Even though Tang Li Xue could keep Xiao Hei''s life with her [Talisman of Regeneration +3] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2], but these two talismans could only maintain Xiao Hei''s life, notpletely cure him.
His cultivation would slowly regress as time passed, and he would definitely be a cripple before long.
In short, Xiao Hei would soon be a cripple who can no longer move his body, and Tang Li Xue would need to use [Talisman of Regeneration +3] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2] periodically on him to maintain him from dying.
A chill ran down Tang Li Xue''s spine.
It was clearly not the future that both Xiao Hei and Tang Li Xue could ept!
Xiao Hei who had just regained consciousness could faintly see Tang Li Xue''s expression that turned grim.
"Cough, cough, Xiao Bai... I know my own body best... My life definitely would notst long... Can you please let me..." Xiao Hei coughed a few mouthfuls of blood while saying to Tang Li Xue with great difficulty.
"Can you just shut up and let me think quietly for a while?" Tang Li Xue interrupted Xiao Hei''s words in an annoyed tone.
In fact, Tang Li Xue really wanted to knock Xiao Hei unconscious again because something like ''I only had a few more seconds to live, so can you please give me a goodbye kiss'' was not what Tang Li Xue wanted to hear at this moment.
She had already spent so much effort and took so many risks in order to save her favorite concubine... cough, I mean Xiao Hei, so how could she give up after going this far?!
Xiao Hei waspletely dumbfounded by Tang Li Xue''s harsh words.
Xiao Hei felt that he was about to die soon, so his Xiao Bai should be kinder and gentler to him at this moment, right?!
How could she scold harshly him like this?!
What if he died of a heart attack because his Xiao Bai scolded him?!
Xiao Hei sulked depressedly at his Xiao Bai as he decided to never talk to his Xiao Bai anymore until hisst breath.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue hadpletely run out of any idea to help Xiao Hei this time.
"Damn it~! Is there really nothing I can do anymore?! Can I somehow use my [Quick Restore] on Xiao Hei? Maybe I can try to create a new type of stronger talisman than [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] based on [Quick Restore]?" Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead while thinking deeply.
Xiao Hei smiled gently, and his heart was filled with warmness when he saw his Xiao Bai was trying so hard to save him.
Just when Tang Li Xue almost took out a stack of talisman paper and her Golden [Inscription Pen], a light of inspiration shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind like a bulb that lighted up.
"I am really such an idiot~! How could I forget about that?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in an excited tone while smiling beautifully.
Tang Li Xue opened her system with her thoughts and took a look at the mall section which she had never touched until now.
[Recovery Pill: 1000 Deity Coins]
Tang Li Xue decided to buy one [Recovery Pill] without any hesitation.
But when her more than 6,000 Deity Coins had decreased to more than 5,000 Deity Coins in the blink of an eye, she suddenly felt an indescribable heartache.
It took so much effort for her to obtain those Deity Coins until it reached more than 7,000 Deity Coins in the Foxes Hunting Festival, but it had shrunk to more than 5,000 Deity Coins right now after she used them to learn [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] and buy one [Recovery Pill].
Tang Li Xue shook her head as she brought the [Recovery Pill] to Xiao Hei''s mouth.
Who knew that Xiao Hei actually closed his mouth tightly and turned his head in the other direction to reject Tang Li Xue''s [Recovery Pill]?!
Tang Li Xue''s beautiful expression turned dark as she questioned Xiao Hei angrily: "What are you doing?"
"Xiao Bai... It''s useless... Cough, cough, you better keep your precious medicine for yourself..." Xiao Hei muttered with great difficulty to Tang Li Xue.
"I am sure this pill can definitely cure you, so please just be a good boy, and eat this pill, okay?" Tang Li Xue said gently while trying to coax Xiao Hei to eat her [Recovery Pill].
But no matter how gentle or harsh Tang Li Xue tries to persuade Xiao Hei, he still would not eat her [Recovery Pill]!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in rage as she suddenly shoved the [Recovery Pill] into her mouth instead!
Xiao Hei instantly became dumbfounded by Tang Li Xue''s unexpected action.
Then Tang Li Xue forcefully grabbed Xiao Hei''s cheeks with her hands and...
Tang Li Xue''s charming pink lips touched Xiao Hei''s pale lips gently.
Xiao Hei could feel that the [Recovery Pill] in Tang Li Xue''s mouth had entered his mouth and slowly slipped down his throat!
Before Xiao Hei could enjoy Tang Li Xue''s soft pink lips, Tang Li Xue already pulled herself away from Xiao Hei while saying in a teasing tone: "Isn''t this what you want? You pervert Xiao Hei~!"
Tang Li Xue''s teasing words woke Xiao Hei from his stupor as he murmured: "But the time is too short..."
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes as she said to Xiao Hei: "That is my first kiss, so you better be content!"
"Really? Well, that is also my first kiss..." Xiao Hei subconsciously replied.
Tang Li Xue and Xiao Hei stared at each other for a few moments.
"Pffft~! Ahahahahaha~!"
Then both of themughed out loud at each other.
Xiao Hei grasped Tang Li Xue''s smooth fair hand and asked in a nervous tone: "Xiao Bai, so your memories havee back? You have already remembered everything?"
Tang Li Xue nodded while smiling gently at Xiao Hei.
Xiao Hei instantly felt extremely delighted as heughed foolishly.
But before Tang Li Xue and Xiao Hei talked to each other again...
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
"RETREAT~! RETREAT~! RETREAT~! EVERYONE RETREAT~!"
Both of them heard the loud gong sound and shout signaling everyone to retreat from the battlefield.
Tang Li Xue and Xiao Hei could see that the human cultivator army was already almost wiped out by the Beast Tide.
Tang Li Xue had faced the powerful human army several times in the Foxes Hunting Festival, so she could actually tell that this human cultivator army would definitely lose to the Beast Tide from the very beginning.
The human cultivator army was like scattered sand piled up together to face the Beast Tide, so how could they even think of winning?!
The Gu Family had probably nned to use them as cannon fodder since the very start.
The powerful human army that Tang Li Xue had faced in the Foxes Hunting Festival waspletely on a different level than these cannon fodder.
They were not only equipped with powerful spirit weapons and protected with spirit armor but also fought together in a neat battle formation that amplified their battle power many times.
If this Beast Tide was fighting against them, the oue of this battle would definitely be reversed.
Tang Li Xue hastily took out another [Talisman of Regeneration +3] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2], then used them on Xiao Hei.
"Looks like it''s time for us to part ways. The Nascent Soul Stage elders from your new sect wille here soon to bring you away. It will be difficult to exin if they see a fox like me with you." Tang Li Xue muttered to Xiao Hei while giggling yfully.
Xiao Hei hastily grabbed Tang Li Xue''s smooth soft hand and said in a nervous tone: "Don''t go, Xiao Bai~! Just bring me with you. We... We can go somewhere else where no one can find us and live happily together forever!"
Tang Li Xue shook her head as she rejected Xiao Hei''s idea: "No, Xiao Hei. We can''t..."
Tang Li Xue exined the consequence with a solemn tone: "If we really do that, we will be a pair fugitive hunted and chased by both Immortal Sword Sect and Fox n. Do you really want us to live like that?"
Actually, Tang Li Xue was more afraid of the Fox n''s chasing rather than the Immortal Sword Sect, but she did not bother to exin clearly to Xiao Hei since she thought he might not believe her.
If Instructor Mei Lan or the Bookkeeper were really determined to find her, even if she and Xiao Hei ran and hid in the corner of this Lightwind Continent like a pair of rats, they would definitely still be found.
Chapter 720 720: Disastrous Defeat!
Chapter 720 Chapter 720: Disastrous Defeat!
?When Xiao Hei heard Tang Li Xue''s exnation, he instantly fell silent, and his expression instantly changed to gloomy.
How could Xiao Hei let his beloved Xiao Bai bear that kind of suffering just to be with him?!
"Xiao Bai, I understand what I have to do." Xiao Hei nodded to Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression.
Tang Li Xue smiled gently at Xiao Hei. Her blooming smile was so dazzling that Xiao Hei was stunned andpletely bewitched by her again.
"Oh, right... You better take good care of my perfect copyter. She has done a very dangerous thing in order to save you before." Tang Li Xue muttered yfully to Xiao Hei as she activated the [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy.
When Xiao Hei woke up from his daze, Tang Li Xue was no longer there, and she was reced by her perfect copy in male disguise, who was currently passed out after using [Paranormal Intuition] before.
Xiao Heiughed helplessly, then he tried to move closer to the fainted perfect copy to check on her current condition.
However, he instantly felt an extremely painful tearing pain on his entire body and coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood again.
It seemed it would take quite some time for him to recover until he could move his body, so he could only wait patiently for help right now.
It did not take long for all of the Nascent Soul Stage experts from Gu Family, Alchemist Sect, and Immortal Sword Sect to decide to retreat from there as well.
The Nascent Soul Stage experts from the Gu Family and Alchemist Sect took away the passed-out Gu Shengxin and Zhu Yan, while the Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect took away Elder Yang and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Even though all of the Nascent Soul Stage experts could still retreat safely from the battlefield, but it was undeniable that they had suffered a disastrous defeat just against the three False Spirit Beasts.
No Nascent Soul Stage experts lost their lives, but all of them were injured in the battle against the three False Spirit Beasts.
More than half of them were injured quite badly, and it might take several years or even more than a decade for them topletely recover.
While only a tenth of the human cultivator army was still alive at this moment, but most of them were also injured to varying degrees.
When all of them went back to Garden City, many families cried hysterically after knowing that their family members would nevere back.
Yesterday, they departed from Garden City bravely with great fanfare, but it only took them one day for the Beast Tide to almostpletely wipe out their hundreds or even thousands of human cultivator army.
It was such a great blow that all the people living in Garden City were shrouded by despair and fear.
Xiao Hei... Or rather be called Elder Yang for now was sighing in sorrow.
Usually, there was only one or two False Spirit Beasts, who acted as the pack leader and the deputy leader in the Beast Tide.
No one expected that the Beast Tide this time actually has four False Spirit Beasts leading them!
Actually, all Nascent Soul Stage Experts and the human cultivator army still had a chance to retreat when they saw there were four False Spirit Beasts on the Beast Tide side before.
If Elder Yang was the one who led the war, he would surely give the order to retreat in that instant after he knew it.
But the pride of those Nascent Soul Stage old experts clearly did not allow them to retreat without fighting, so they decided to fight and see if they could win against the four False Spirit Beasts.
Of course, the final result was the current disastrous defeat...
All Nascent Soul Stage Experts brought Elder Yang, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Gu Shengxin, Ling Shuang, and Zhu Yan back to the Gu Family''s mansion.
Several high-level alchemists quickly checked their condition and treated their wounds.
Fortunately, Elder Yang had almostpletely recovered after they returned to the Gu Family''s mansion or his body''s tragic condition might have made all of the people in the Gu Family''s mansion fall into panic.
Imagine if the Immortal Sword Sect''s future young patriarch became a cripple because he helped the Gu Family?! Just how shocking this news would be?!
Meanwhile, Elder Yang was afraid that those old high-level alchemists would notice the perfect copy''s true gender, so he did not let them touch the perfect copy and let the perfect copy sleep in the same room as him instead.
All the people stared strangely at him at that time, but Elder Yang did not care about their opinions at all.
.....
When the sky had already turned dark, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan also returned to the Garden City a few hours after the Human Cultivator Army entered the Garden City.
Bingbing and Silly Fox had already tried to interrogate Tang Li Xue about what happened to her perfect copy, but Tang Li Xue was joking with them instead by saying that her perfect copy might be too sleepy today.
Tang Li Xue was really afraid that Instructor Mei Lan would notice something, but thankfully, Instructor Mei Lan did not say or ask anything about it at all on the way.
After going back to their inn, Instructor Mei Lan told them that they could go back to their room and take a rest.
When Instructor Mei Lan went back to her own room, she took out a gadget from her space pouch and activated it to seal her entire room, so no one could peep or eavesdrop into her room.
Then she took amunication talisman from her space pouch and used it to contact someone.
"Hello, Miss gentle beautiful fox, Lan''er~!" White Lion King''s voice resounded from Instructor Mei Lan''smunication talisman.
"Exin to me, how is it possible that human male genius is still alive right now?! Have really used my [Void Piercing Arrow] on him?!" Instructor Mei Lan questioned the White Lion King in a chilling tone.
"WHAT?! That is impossible~! I have clearly used the [Void Piercing Arrow] on him! I even confirmed with my own eyes that he had a huge hole in his chest before I left! Lan''er, are you really sure that he is still alive?" White Lion King shouted in panic to deny it.
"I am very sure that he is still alive." Instructor Mei Lan replied without any hesitation.
She could easily judge by Tang Li Xue''s previous expression if Elder Yang had already passed away or was still alive.
From Tang Li Xue''s shy and delightful expression, Instructor Mei Lan concluded that not only had she seeded in saving Elder Yang but their rtionship had also improved a lot today.
"But how could it be?! The destructive power of [Void Piercing Arrow] can even heavily injure or even kill the False Spirit Beasts that possess extremely tenacious vitality!" The White Lion King kept bbering in astonishment.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and said in a cold angry tone: "That is because you are too stupid! If you aimed at his head, he would have certainly died on the spot!"
The White Lion King: "....."
The White Lion King had to admit that it was his mistake to not aim at his head, but... wasn''t that too cruel?
"Err... That Lan''er... I am really sorry, okay? But what about the payment..." The White Lion King thickened the skin on his face and tried to ask about his reward.
"You onlypleted my first task, so I will only give you the reward for that!" Instructor Mei Lan answered before she cut their connection and stuffed themunication talisman back into her space pouch.
Instructor Mei Lan gnashed her teeth as sheined in rage: "That dumb cat still has the nerve to ask for rewards after wasting my precious [Void Piercing Arrow]!"
It took a few minutes for Instructor Mei Lan to calm down her anger and put on her usual expression.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head as she murmured to herself: "No, this failure is my mistake. It''s because I am too anxious and make a hasty move. I should have already known that Elder Yang is a heaven-favored genius. His life should be protected by the heaven''s luck, so it would not be that easy to kill him."
"Rather than killing him, it should be much easier to just ruin his rtionship with Little Xue and make them hate each other instead." Instructor Mei Lan decided her next move.
.....
After Tang Li Xue went back to her room, she saw Little Loki and Yaya was already waiting for her with a bulging stomach.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes at them and said: "No wonder I have not seen you two since yesterday. So, you two havepletely enjoyed yourself!"
But it made sense since so many cultivators, guards, and warriors had gone to war with the Beast Tide since yesterday, so both Little Loki and Yaya could easily sneak into the unguarded herb and fruit garden to eat until they werepletely satisfied.
No matter how advanced their protective formation, it definitely could not stop Little Loki and Yaya, since Little Loki could easily open a hole for them to enter with its [Heaven''s Devour].
Tang Li Xue was not worried at all, since all Nascent Soul Stage experts in Garden City had gone to war yesterday, so no one could catch Little Loki and Yaya.
Chapter 721 721: Gu Shengxin’s True Face!
Chapter 721 Chapter 721: Gu Shengxin¡¯s True Face!
?Little Loki felt very sleepy because it was full, so it did not bother to care about Tang Li Xue''s mockery at all.
But Yaya was Tang Li Xue''s good girl, so she immediately flew unsteadily to Tang Li Xue, hugged her, and gave her a kiss with a pair of sleepy eyes.
Tang Li Xue chuckled as she returned Yaya by kissing Yaya''s forehead.
"All right, I know you already feel sleepy too. You can just go to sleep with Little Loki now."?Tang Li Xue stated to Yaya as she put Yaya onto the bed.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to bring Yaya and Little Loki to lease the cultivation cave and practice her Profound Law of Heat and Cold there as usual, but it seemed she could not do that today.
Tang Li Xue sat in a lotus position on her bed and decided to do some experiments by simultaneously practicing [Essence Devouring Technique] and [Energy Maniption].
When she tried to save her Xiao Hei before, [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], [Essence Devouring Technique], and [Energy Maniption] could actually resonate perfectly with each other as if they were blending into one mechanism.
Tang Li Xue did not dare to practice [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] carelessly since she had already learned her lesson from the previous incident, but practicing both [Essence Devouring Technique] and [Energy Maniption] simultaneously should be all right.
That night, all the people who stayed in that inn and its surrounding could not sleep and shuddered in fear since all the surrounding spiritual energy was sucked dry by something mysterious.
Even the spiritual energy in the body of those people was slowly drained by that mysterious power!
Itter became a horror story that the people who died so miserably on the battlefield went back to Garden City that night and haunted that area.
.....
The next morning, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy slowly opened her eyes, but her eyes instantly met with a pair of eyes that were staring intensely at her.
"UGYAAAAAAAAAA~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy screamed in shock as she swiftly threw a random punch forward.
BAAAAANG~!
Fortunately, Elder Yang reacted quite fast and blocked the perfect copy''s punch with his palm before it could strike his face.
"Hey, calm down! You are already in a safe ce." Elder Yang said to appease Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy raised her body until she sat on her bed while looking around, and she found herself in a familiar room.
Yes, she was actually in Elder Yang''s room right now!
"Why am I in your room? You did not do anything strange to me when I was sleeping, right?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy red suspiciously at Elder Yang while hugging her chest.
Elder Yang''s expression instantly turned dark after he heard the perfect copy''s questions.
"Xiao Bai, how could you look down on me so much like that?! Do I really look like that in your eyes?" Elder Yang asked in a displeased tone.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rolled her eyes and replied: "Then why were your face so close to me as if you wanted to kiss me just now?!"
Elder Yang''s face blushed like a prawn since he was really almost tempted to steal a kiss from the sleeping Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy before.
Tang Li Xue''s previous kiss made him could not sleepst night, and he kept thinking about it until now.
But how could Elder Yang admit it, so he immediately tried to deny it: "I... I only try to guard you... and wait until you wake up to..."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not bother to continue that topic as she asked again: "How about Zhu Yan? Is she all right?"
"She is all right. She and Young Master Gu should have already woken up earlier than you." Elder Yang replied, but he still felt unhappy at the perfect copy''s previous usation.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in relief after she heard that Zhu Yan waspletely all right.
"Hey, this does not seem right... Why are you more worried about that woman than me? I am your ma~~umph..." Before Elder Yang could finish his words, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily closed his mouth with the palm of her hands.
"Can you shut your mouth?! What if someone overheard your words and thought we were really in that kind of rtionship?! You should know that I am a ''man'' right now!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy scolded Elder Yang in a soft voice while gnashing her pearl-white teeth impatiently.
Elder Yang quickly shut his mouth after he heard the perfect copy''s warning.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy pulled her palm from Elder Yang''s mouth and rubbed her forehead to ease her headache.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waved her right hand as she instantly created a transparent barrier using her [Energy Maniption] to prevent anyone from eavesdropping on her next conversation with Elder Yang.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only exin her current mission to Elder Yang, so Elder Yang would not do something stupid to ruin her nter.
Elder Yang frowned deeply after he heard the perfect copy''s mission to woo Zhu Yan and try to make Zhu Yan forget about Gu Shengxin.
Fortunately, the perfect copy''s mission was to woo a female, so Elder Yang could still barely ept it.
If the perfect copy''s mission was to woo a male instead, then Elder Yang would have already exploded in anger and jealousy as he would never allow her to do it, even though this was just Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Elder Yang nodded his head in agreement and said: "Okay, I will try to help you as much as I can from now on. But you better be much more careful around that Gu Shengxin."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy chuckled at Elder Yang and teased him: "Why? Will you be jealous if I get too close to that Gu Shengxin?"
Elder Yang chuckled as he replied: "Of course, I will be jealous if you get too close to another man other than me, but I warned you not only because of that."
"Why do you think that Gu Shengxin can be a well-known one-in-thousand-years alchemist genius at such a young age? Do you really believe such bullshit like he has peerless talent in alchemist and so on?" Elder Yang asked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned deeply as she felt a bad feeling about what Elder Yang was going to tell her and asked back: "What do you mean?"
Elder Yang sneered coldly as he exined: "Gu Family and Alchemist Sect had secretly caught many wandering warriors and casual cultivators, then let Gu Shengxin use them as his living experiment."
"Don''t look at his gentle handsome schr-like look, the people who died in his hands might have already reached tens of thousands." Elder Yang told Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy about Gu Shengxin''s information he knew.
"What?! You mean he actually dared to use so many living humans as experiments for the pills he concocted?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in shock and disbelief.
Elder Yang nodded as he gave another warning to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "If what you just say is true, and that Zhu Yan is really the Sea Beast Princess. Then you better move fast to woo her before Gu Shengxin finds out her true identity."
"You should have already known that Gu Shengxin held so much hatred against Beast Race because he just lost his mother and little sister to the Beast Tide. If he somehow knows that Zhu Yan''s identity as the Sea Beast Princess...Then her next fate might be worse than death." Elder Yang muttered to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in a solemn tone.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nodded to Elder Yang with a grim expression.
Previously, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy still had some hesitation because they actually did not want to separate the pair of lovers who loved each other.
But after hearing about Gu Shengxin''s true face from Elder Yang, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy changed their mind since they were extremely sure right now that Zhu Yan or Princess Yan Fei would not be suitable with Gu Shengxin!
''Damn it~! I never thought that Gu Shengxin was actually such a ruthless and vengeful person. This mission may not be as smooth as we imagine.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought.
It was no longer about love or feeling anymore since Zhu Yan''s life would be in danger if Gu Shengxin found out her true identity!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only hope that Zhu Yan would not do something rash like telling Gu Shengxin about her true identityter.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy decided to be more serious about wooing Zhu Yan, so she immediately went out of Elder Yang''s room and looked for Zhu Yan.
Elder Yang also worried about Perfect Copy''s safety since this ce was Gu Shengxin''s home, so he decided to follow her to look for Zhu Yan together.
It did not take long for them to find Zhu Yan, and she was actually walking with Gu Shengxin and Ling Shuang.
In the end, they were heading together to the main hall to discuss their future n against the Beast Tide.
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders from Immortal Sword Sect, Alchemist Sect, and Gu Family were already gathered in the main hall, while the rest of the Nascent Soul Stage elders were still recuperating in the closed training room.
Chapter 722 722: The Perfect Copy’s Dilemma!
Chapter 722 Chapter 722: The Perfect Copy''s Dilemma!
?Only Elder Yang and Gu Shengxin needed to attend the meeting in the main hall, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Zhu Yan, and Ling Shuang had free time to wander around together until the meeting was over.
''All right, it seems this is the right time for Young Master Feng Bai to make his move~!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought while taking a nce at Zhu Yan as if she were watching her prey.
Who knew that Zhu Yan sensed her stare and smiled at her while saying: "Young Master Feng, thank you very much for your help on the battlefield. I and Brother Sheng might lose our lives if not for your timely help."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy showed her dazzling gentle smile to Zhu Yan. When it wasbined with her stunningly beautiful face, the bewitching power was so lethal that it was even enough to stupify the cold and indifferent Elder Yang before.
Sure enough, just like what Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had expected, both Zhu Yan and Ling Shuang were instantly dazzled by her enchanting gentle smile for a few moments.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied in a casual tone: "Ah, you are too polite to me, Miss Zhu Yan. I did that because I really did not want to see you get hurt."
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy recalled what Elder Yang had warned her before, she decided to be even bolder.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy grabbed Zhu Yan''s hand gently while saying with a dazzling gentle smile on her stunning face: "Let alone saving you, even if I must trade my life to revive you, I would still dly do it."
Zhu Yan instantly blushed as her heart was pounding so hard at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sudden confession.
Her mind became extremely messy, and she could no longer think straight about what she had to do next or how she was going to answer Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Zhu Yan knew in her heart that she had already decided to devote herself to Gu Shengxin before, but she was not sure anymore right now.
Previously on the battlefield, Zhu Yan had saved Gu Shengxin a few times, but when the huge Blood Bat was rushing toward them, Gu Shengxin who had already lost his mind in anger charged at the huge Blood Bat head-on.
At that time, Zhu Yan even used her life-saving spirit treasure to save Gu Shengxin, but after that, Gu Shengxin actually woke up from his rage because of the frightening aura and pressure emitted by the huge Blood Bat.
In fear and panic, Gu Shengxin actually pushed Zhu Yan toward the huge Blood Bat in order to save himself!
Unfortunately, no one had seen this scene before because Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had already heroically repelled the huge Blood Bat with her fist at that time.
But this scene clearly left a deep crack in Zhu Yan''s feelings and trust in Gu Shengxin, and she felt extremely disappointed in Gu Shengxin.
Even though Zhu Yan had tried tofort herself many times that Gu Shengxin definitely did not do it on purpose because he was too panicked at that time, but it still could not close the deep crack in her heart.
Contrary to Gu Shengxin who did such a chilling behavior to her, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had bravely saved her several times on the battlefield.
In Zhu Yan''s eyes... or maybe in everyone''s eyes right now, there was no doubt that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was more good-looking, braver, stronger, gentler, and better than Gu Shengxin in almost all aspects except alchemist skill.
Not to mention that he also had a mysterious but extremely powerful background which was enough to make the future young patriarch of the Immortal Sword Sect, Elder Yang, respect him.
Just when Zhu Yanpletely fell into confusion and did not know what to do, Ling Shuang made her move first as she grabbed the perfect copy''s arm cheerfully and said: "Then what about me, Young Master Feng? Will you also save me if I am in danger?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy subconsciously wanted to reply: ''Of course not, you moron~! Did you forget that you wanted to amputate my hands before just because I saved you from getting drowned?! You should be thankful that I am not throwing you back into thatke and letting you drown to death right now, you green tea b*tch!''
Well... Of course, she could not say that so frankly in front of Zhu Yan since it would ruin her image as a kind-hearted heroic gentleman, so she gnashed her pearl-white teeth to hold down her anger and forced herself to reply to Ling Shuang in a yful tone: "Hahaha... Miss Ling already has Young Master Gu, so I don''t think you need me to protect you anymore."
Ling Shuang snorted and said: "Brother Sheng is my good brother, but he is not as strong as Brother Feng. Ling''er likes strong people very much~!"
Ling Shuang stated while staring at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a pair of fiery passionate eyes.
The perfect copy''s body instantly shuddered in horror as cold ran down her spine when she sensed Ling Shuang''s passionate stare.
''Damn it~! Why the hell this green tea... cough, well, I mean this girl would not fall for me, right?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily tried to pull her arm from Ling Shuang''s grasp, but Ling Shuang grabbed her arm really hard.
On the contrary, Ling Shuang stepped even closer to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy until her soft breast touched the perfect copy''s arm while ring provocatively at Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan frowned deeply in displeasure as the seed of jealousy began to burn in her heart.
Zhu Yan herself still did not understand why she had be so angry and ufortable when Ling Shuang stuck so close to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Zhu Yan herself failed to realize that she felt ''jealous'' since she never felt this bad when Ling Shuang stuck so close to Gu Shengxin before.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy fell into panic since she thought that Zhu Yan would think badly of her because Ling Shuang hugged her so closely and tightly like a ko.
But she clearly could not push away Ling Shuang forcefully until she fell down... It would only ruin her image more in front of Zhu Yan''s eyes!
In the end, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only greet her teeth and bear Ling Shuang''s harassment while trying to strike up afortable conversation with Zhu Yan.
However, Zhu Yan''s mood had already be very bad, so she did not want to talk much to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
That extremely awkward situationsted until the meeting in the main hall was over, then Elder Yang and Gu Shengxin went out from the main hall to meet with their group.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in relief while wiping out her cold sweat with her sleeve since Ling Shuang finally restrained herself in front of Gu Shengxin and did not dare to stick so close to her shamelessly as before.
Elder Yang hastily pulled Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy away from the others since he wanted to have lunch alone with her.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy requested to eat Elder Yang''s delicious barbeque, and he immediately granted her wish without any hesitation.
When Elder Yang was roasting some meats for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, she suddenly held Elder Yang''s shoulder.
Elder Yang felt a bad feeling when he saw the perfect copy''s calcting smile as if she was saying: ''It seems I can only count on you this time.''
Who knew that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy actually praised him generously instead by saying: "Xiao Hei, you surely look really handsome and manly. I am sure many women fall for you at first sight, right?"
Elder Yang puffed his chest proudly and replied: "Of course~! Even the Patriarch''s daughter from the Immortal Sword Sect had already fallen... Uhh, well, forget it..."
Elder Yang hastily closed his mouth, since he was really afraid that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy might be angry and resent him if she knew that he had already engaged with the patriarch''s daughter from the Immortal Sword Sect.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not notice Elder Yang''s strange behavior since her mind waspletely upied by her disgust with Ling Shuang, so she decided to ask for Elder Yang''s help!
"Xiao Hei, why don''t you try to woo that girl beside Gu Shengxin named Ling Shuang?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stated to Elder Yang while staring at him with a pair of begging eyes.
Elder Yang''s expression instantly turned dark and gloomy like a stormy cloud.
How could he not feel angry when his Xiao Bai asked him to woo another woman right in front of his face?!
What kind of bloody script was this?!
Chapter 723 723: Fatal Promise!
Chapter 723 Chapter 723: Fatal Promise!
?"Xiao Bai, this joke is not even funny. How could I try to woo another woman when I already have you?!" Elder Yang muttered to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in an annoyed tone.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt embarrassed after she heard Elder Yang''s words, so she decided to tell what just happened when Elder Yang and Gu Shengxin attended the meeting in the main hall before.
Elder Yang''s annoyance was instantly gone after he heard the perfect copy''s story, and heughed at her instead.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy puckered her lips and pouted when Elder Yang wasughing at her.
"That Ling Shuang is really annoying. She keeps sticking to me like glue in front of Zhu Yan! I cannot even have a nice chat with Zhu Yan because of her!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined again.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy grabbed Elder Yang''s arm and shook it while acting coquettishly at him: "Xiao Hei, you will help me, right? I really cannot stand it when that woman sticks so close to me!"
"All right, I get it. I will definitely do something to help you, so you do not need to worry about that woman anymore." Elder Yang held the perfect copy''s soft smooth hand and said in a reassured tone to her.
The perfect copy''s eyes immediately shone brighter in excitement as she asked: "Yay~! So, you agree to woo that woman for me, right?! Xiao Hei, you are really the best person to me~!"
Elder Yang''s smiling expression instantly changed to dark again as he replied: "No, I will never ever do that! Why do you always want to push me to that woman?! You should know that there are still many ways to push that woman out of here without any need for me to woo her!"
Then the perfect copy realized that Elder Yang was a person with great authority, so he could just order Ling Shuang to do something that made her too busy to even bother Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Zhu Yanter.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy secretly admired Elder Yang''s sincerity very much when Elder Yang rejected their wishes to woo Ling Shuang.
Both of them thought that Elder Yang was truly a faithful person.
Unfortunately, both Tang Li Xue and Elder Yang would never thought that this faithfulness or sincerity matter would be a quite huge problem for them really soon.
.....
The real Tang Li Xue was still practicing both [Essence Devouring Technique] and [Energy Maniption] simultaneously.
Her proficiency when using both of them simultaneously had increased quite a lotpared to before.
After doing many experiments many timesst night, Tang Li Xue could even use [Essence Devouring Technique] and [Energy Maniption] plus [Art of Concealment] simultaneously right now!
When she was using the three of them simultaneously, no one could track or detect who was the one using them!
It was like the surrounding spiritual energy vanished out of thin air like a passing-by ghost.
Tang Li Xue felt more and more excited when she thought that she couldbine four techniques... or rather three techniques plus one divine ability into one: [Essence Devouring Technique], [Energy Maniption], [Art of Concealment], and [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form].
Even though it was theoretically easy to do, but it was actually impossible for any creature other than Tang Li Xue to do it.
Because the key for thisbination was actually her [Energy Maniption]!
Yes, her [Energy Maniption] was the one who solved everything from the conflict between energy to thepatibility problem between techniques.
The only problem Tang Li Xue needed to face was the multi-tasking problem...
"Sigh... In the end, it is still about multi-tasking problems again... It seems I have to look for a suitable divine ability to solve this problem." Tang Li Xue muttered in a frustrated tone.
Previously, Tang Li Xue had already faced this multi-tasking problem when she tried to practice the Profound Law of Heat and Cold from [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], but she managed to solve it by using her perfect copy''s mind to assist her.
But if she wanted to wield [Essence Devouring Technique], [Energy Maniption], [Art of Concealment], and [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] at once freely, she clearly needed more than just two minds... maybe at least five or six minds.
Tang Li Xue decided to end her training session when Instructor Mei Lan knocked on the door of her room.
Tang Li Xue stood up from her bed and opened the door, then asked Instructor Mei Lan: "Instructor Lan?"
"Little Xue,e me to my room now. There is something I need to talk to you." Instructor Mei Lan muttered to Tang Li Xue as she led Tang Li Xue into her room.
Tang Li Xue sighed as she thought that Instructor Mei Lan might scold her about Elder Yang''s problem, but she still followed to Instructor Mei Lan''s room.
Both of them sat on the chair at the center of the room, while Instructor Mei Lan poured the tea from teapot to their teacup.
"I know you are quite close to that human boy, but why have you never told us about him?"
"You should know that human boy already recognized us because he had met all of us in our previous mission in Tang Feng City, right?"
"If that human boy has any bad intentions and secretly carries out an ambush n to catch all of us, he would have already seeded because you hid the information about him from us!"
"Do you know your action just put all of our lives in that human boy''s hands?!"
"Do you believe in him so much more than me, Bingbing, and Silly Fox that you have a heart to put all of our lives in that human boy''s hands?!"
Instructor Mei Lan scolded Tang Li Xue mercilessly in a cold tone.
Tang Li Xue felt extremely guilty after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words, but she could not give any excuse for it.
Every Instructor Mei Lan''s words were right...
Her actions actually put the lives of their team in Elder Yang''s hands...
But it was all because she really trusted that her Xiao Hei would never do something to hurt her and her friends...
"Little Xue, I really do not know anymore if I can trust you again or not... Maybe I should just transfer you to another team after we get back to Myriad Foxes Academyter." Instructor Mei Lan murmured in great disappointment.
These words were extremely lethal for Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue''s heart almost jumped out of her chest when she heard these words from Instructor Mei Lan!
"No, Instructor Lan! Please forgive me! I... I will never do it again! So, please... do not transfer me to another team!" Tang Li Xue begged Instructor Mei Lan with a pair of teary eyes.
Of course, this was only Instructor Mei Lan''s bluff...
If she really transferred Tang Li Xue to another team, both Bingbing and Silly Fox would definitely choose to transfer to that team too without any hesitation!
But Tang Li Xue was too panicked after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words, so she did not realize that she had slowly fallen into Instructor Mei Lan''s trap.
Instructor Mei Lan deliberately showed a hesitant expression while saying: "Little Xue, you should know that I have full responsibility for my student''s safety as a teacher. If you keep doing this, something bad will be bound to happen sooner orter. I would like to forgive you, but I cannot gamble with the lives of all my students for your sake."
Tang Li Xue hastily exined: "Instructor Lan, I never told you about Xiao He... about Elder Yang because I believe he is a faithful and sincere person, so he would never do something despicable to harm us."
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and said: "He might not have any intention to hurt us, but who knows if he unintentionally leaked our information to other people and put our lives in danger because of it?"
"No way, I dare to guarantee that he will never do that. Instructor Lan, you do not need to worry too much. I promise he will not do anything to put our lives in danger." Tang Li Xue tried to reassure Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan squinted her eyes and asked: "Really? Do you dare to guarantee that it will never happen?! What if something bad happens to us because of him?!"
"Then I willpletely cut off my rtionship with him, and I will never meet, talk, or trust him anymore." Tang Li Xue promised to Instructor Mei Lan.
"Okay~! You have to remember your current promise, or I will immediately transfer you to another team next time! Do you understand?!" Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue with a firm tone.
Yes, this promise was what Instructor Mei Lan aimed to get from the start...
Tang Li Xue felt really d and relieved after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
She hastily nodded her head to Instructor Mei Lan and replied seriously: "I understand, Instructor Lan~!"
Instructor Mei Lan kicked Tang Li Xue out of her room after that, so Tang Li Xue went back to her room and brought Little Loki and Yaya to eat their dinner in the first floor restaurant.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan took out an engagement invitation card from her space pouch while muttering: "Little Xue, I hope you can really keep your promise to meter."
Chapter 724 724: Another First Kiss?!
Chapter 724 Chapter 724: Another First Kiss?!
?.....
In the afternoon, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy heard that Ling Shuang had already gone back to her Ling Family''s home in a hurry to take care of her family''s matter.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were quite surprised when they heard this news.
They could instantly guess that this might be Elder Yang''s action to help them, but they never expected that it would be this fast.
It only took a few hours for Elder Yang to actually fulfill the perfect copy''s request.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy happily went to find Zhu Yan to have a happy chat with her, but Gu Shengxin was actually always stuck close to Zhu Yan.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt very annoyed at this Gu ''third wheel'' Shengxin, so she decided to ask for Elder Yang''s help once again.
Elder Yang, who wanted to spend romantic time alone with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, could only helplessly help her once more by dragging Gu Shengxin to drink wine together.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took this chance to bring Zhu Yan to walk together in the Gu Family''s herb garden while chatting happily with her.
Under the beautiful full moon and starry skies, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Zhu Yan quickly got more familiar and closer to each other.
Thousands of different colors of flowers and many spirit fruit trees along with dazzling spirit fireflies created an extremely beautiful scenery.
Zhu Yan looked as if she was not ustomed to walking on her feet, so she identally tripped on the tree root.
"Watch out, Miss Zhu~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily caught Zhu Yan before she could fall onto the ground.
So, Zhu Yan ended up falling into the perfect copy''s embrace while Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hugged Zhu Yan''s slender waist.
The atmosphere between them instantly became ambiguous in that instant as Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Zhu Yan stared at each other romanticly without saying any words.
The faces of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Zhu Yan were only a few centimeters from each other, and both of them could feel each other''s warm breath.
The distance between them was actually slowly getting closer and closer.
''Wa... Wait a minute... Don''t tell me we are going to kiss just like this?! I... I am not ready yet! My first kiss was with Xiao Hei, so my second kiss would be with a girl?!''
''No, it was my real self who had kissed Xiao Hei before! So, does it mean this would be my first kiss?! My first kiss would be with a girl?! No, no, no... I... I am clearly straight, so I also want my first kiss to be with an extremely powerful, handsome, and rich male concubine!''
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instantly fell into a panic, and she almost pushed away Zhu Yan in reflex.
Fortunately, Zhu Yan had closed her eyes as her face slowly got close to the perfect copy''s face, so she failed to notice the perfect copy''s panicked reaction.
"Are you stupid or what?! Who told you to kiss her for real?! Can you just create something with your [Energy Maniption]?! But if you dare to ruin our progress so far and make Zhu Yan feel offended, I will make sure you regret itter~!" The real Tang Li Xue scolded her perfect copy while giving a brilliant suggestion to her.
The perfect copy''s eyes shone brighter when she heard the real Tang Li Xue''s suggestion.
She immediately used her [Energy Maniption] to condense a mouth mask on her face.
Except for its unnaturally white and almost transparent color, this mouth mask was almost 100% identical to her mouth from the lips to the front teeth, and even the lips part was soft like a real one as if it was made from silicone.
The perfect copy had confidence that Zhu Yan would not notice anything wrong... well, probably... At least, she really hoped so.
Zhu Yan''s soft lips and the perfect copy''s (mouth mask) lips finally touched gently with each other.
Their warm kiss was so romantic under the moonlight and starry skies in the middle of the beautiful herb garden, witnessed by countless spirit fireflies.
After a few seconds, their lips finally slowly separated from each other.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily used her [Energy Maniption] to disperse the mouth mask back into spiritual energy before Zhu Yan opened her eyes and noticed it.
When Zhu Yan opened her eyes, she kept staring at the perfect copy''s dazzling handsome face with a pair of dreamy eyes.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not have any clue about what she had to do next after kissing, so she could only show her signature charming gentle smile to Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan''s heart was beating harder than ever, and she became even more obsessed with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy when she saw the perfect copy''s charming gentle smile.
Zhu Yan closed her eyes again as she brought her face closer to the perfect copy''s face again.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy repeated the same trick again for the second time.
So, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Zhu Yan ended up kissing passionately with each other several more times that night.
If Elder Yang saw this scene, he would surely be jealous to death of Zhu Yan, and it might create a bloodbath drama like in the soap opera TV series.
After that, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy escorted Zhu Yan back to her room before she went back to her room.
Then she remembered that she actually lived in the same room as Elder Yangst night, and her expression instantly turned darker.
She already had enough dose of a romantic rtionship with Zhu Yan, so she did not want to face Elder Yang''s flirt again tonight.
"Oh, well... This progress is possible thanks to his help, so at least I must thank him right now." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered as she headed to Elder Yang''s courtyard and knocked on the door of his room several times.
Elder Yang opened the door of his room and let Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy enter his room.
Both of them sat on the seats in the middle of the room, then Elder Yang poured the tea into their teacup while asking curiously: "How about it? Is there any progress in your mission?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy drank the tea in her teacup in one gulp to quench her thirst before replying in an excited tone: "Of course, there is a lot of progress~! Who do you think I am?! But I still have to thank you for your help. My progress would definitely not be this fast without your help."
Elder Yang chuckled at the perfect copy amusingly and said: "I have already helped you so much this time, so you should give me some rewards, right?"
The perfect copy''s expression changed slightly as she replied: "Oh? Then what do you want as your reward? I have to tell you that I have no more spirit stones, so it is useless if you ask me to reward you with some spirit stones."
Elder Yang''s mouth twitched slightly when he heard the perfect copy''s statement.
Is he really someone who looks poor?!
He already has too many spirit stones, okay?! So, he does not need any more spirit stones!
Elder Yang tapped at his lips and stated without any shame: "I want a warm kiss on my lips as a reward."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was instantly stunned by Elder Yang''s shameless request.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hesitated for a while as she thought: ''My real self''s first kiss has already been given to this man. Why do I feel like I suffer a great loss if my first kiss is also given to this man?! Damn~! Does that mean this man would take our two first kisses?! What a yboy~!''
Then the real Tang Li Xue secretly gave her a yful suggestion.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sneered mischievously at Elder Yang and replied: "All right, but you must close your eyes and never open them when we kiss, understand?"
Elder Yang instantly became excited by the perfect copy''s answer and promised without any hesitation: "No problem~!"
Elder Yang closed his eyes and moved his face closer to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately used her [Energy Maniption] to condense a mouth mask on her face before she kissed Elder Yang''s lips.
When their lips touched with each other, who knew that Elder Yang hastily retreated away from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy while angrily used: "Pffft~! What is that?! You are lying~! You just shoved something weird onto my face, right?!"
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was one step faster as she used her [Energy Maniption] to disperse the mouth mask, so when Elder Yang opened his eyes, he did not find her wearing any mouth mask.
"What do you mean?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy put on innocent act.
Elder Yang rolled his eyes and said: "I have already kissed you before, so I know the taste very clearly. It should be much softer, sweeter, and hotter than that!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was dumbfounded in an instant.
''What the heck?! So, you can even tell the difference based on the taste?!'' Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy eximed in shock and disbelief.
Elder Yang spoke boldly: "I want a real kiss, not a fake one! So, this time, I will not close my eyes!"
"Hahahaha~! No way~! You have already received your reward! How could you ask for another one?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyughed yfully as she quickly escaped from Elder Yang''s room.
Chapter 725 725: Shocking News?!
Chapter 725 Chapter 725: Shocking News?!
?That night, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still stayed in Elder Yang''s courtyard, but she slept in the other room beside Elder Yang''s room.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox had another night meeting before they went to bed.
Unfortunately, Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox did not manage to find any crucial information today.
The only good news was given by Tang Li Xue which her perfect copy had made a lot of progress in wooing Zhu Yan today.
Since there was nothing new to report, Instructor Mei Lan decided to end their night meeting and let her three students go back to their respective rooms.
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and Yaya to eat their dinner in the first-floor restaurant, then she took them to lease the cultivation cave for eight hours and practiced her Profound Law of Heat and Cold there until the next morning as usual.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy thought these peaceful days would at leastst for another few days, and they could take this chance to get closer to Zhu Yan, but their hope immediately shattered when someone from the Immortal Sword Sect actually came to the Gu Family''s mansion to find Elder Yang.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy who was sleeping very soundly in her room was awoken by themotion in the courtyard.
"Urgh... Who the heck is making such a fuss so early in the morning?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy yawned sleepily while stretching her slender bodyzily.
After she tidied up her disguise and her clothes, she got out of her room to check what had happened in Elder Yang''s courtyard.
It was actually Elder Yang who was scolding some Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not want to get involved in the Immortal Sword Sect''s matter, so she immediately took this chance to sneak out from Elder Yang''s courtyard before Elder Yang could persistently request another kiss from her as his reward likest night.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy went to visit Zhu Yan''s courtyard, but she was actually one step toote since Zhu Yan''s maid said that her young miss had already gone with Gu Shengxin just now.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy became even more annoyed at Gu ''third wheel'' Shengxin, but she really did not want to give up a chance to get closer to Zhu Yan today, so she hastily chased them based on the direction that Zhu Yan''s maid pointed out.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to catch up with Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin.
"Good morning, Miss Zhu and Young Master Gu~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy politely greeted both of them with her usual warm gentle smile on her stunningly beautiful face.
"Brother Feng?! Good... Good morning too..." Zhu Yan was surprised when she saw Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, then her face turned red like a prawn as the passionate kissing scenest night shed in her mind.
On the contrary, Gu Shengxin frowned displeasantly when he saw Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Since yesterday, his ears had almost grown callouses since so many people praised this Young Master Feng Bai for his bravery and strength at such a young age.
Many people even started topare him with Young Master Feng Bai and Elder Yang, then said that he was actually far from beingparable to brilliant geniuses such as Young Master Feng Bai and Elder Yang.
Gu Shengxin felt extremely unhappy by theirparison.
Especially when they mentioned how Gu Shengxin was blinded by anger and became so reckless even though he did not have enough strength to back himself up.
If not for Young Master Feng Bai''s timely help and his extremely powerful strength, Gu Shengxin would certainly have dragged Zhu Yan, Elder Yang, and Young Master Feng Bai to die together on the battlefield before.
In short, those people depicted him as a huge burden who almost dragged everyone to die, while Young Master Feng Bai was the hero who saved everyone by fighting bravely alone against a False Spirit Beast, the huge Blood Bat, without being defeated.
Gu Shengxin really wanted to tear their mouths off when he heard that.
Gu Shengxin was an extremely arrogant and prideful person, so how could he ept that statement?!
Gu Shengxin took a deep breath to suppress his jealousy, anger, and displeasure toward this Young Master Feng Bai, then nodded politely at him expressionlessly: "Hello, Young Master Feng. Good morning too."
"Where are you two going? Can Ie with you if you want to eat some breakfast?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked as she was determined to stick closely with Zhu Yan today.
Both Gu Shengxin and Zhu Yan stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy strangely, then shook their head at her.
Zhu Yan hastily exined Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy while asking with a strange tone: "We are heading to the front gate to wait for Elder Yang''s fianc¨¦ to arrive. Aren''t you Elder Yang''s close childhood friend and you even live together in Elder Yang''s courtyard? Elder Yang did not tell you about this yet?"
"F... Fia... WHAT?! Elder Yang''s fianc¨¦?! So, he already has a fianc¨¦ right now?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in shock and disbelief.
Both Gu Shengxin and Zhu Yan nodded at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy as they stared at her even strangely.
Almost everyone already knew about this news, and they even knew that Elder Yang''s fianc¨¦ was actually the great-
granddaughter of Immortal Sword Sect''s old patriarch.
That was the reason why they felt that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was extremely strange.
Both Elder Yang and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy imed to be the closest childhood friends, but how could Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy not know anything about this news yet?!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could easily read their doubt from their expression, so she immediately thought of an appropriate excuse for that.
"Ahahahaha~! I get it~! That idiot Yang must have kept this a secret from me as a surprise for meter!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nonchntly said whileughing yfully.
But her heart was clearly not calm or happy at all!
The real Tang Li Xue who was currently practicing her Profound Law of Heat and Cold in the cultivation cave suddenly got interrupted by that shocking news.
"Cough, cough, cough..." The real Tang Li Xue coughed several mouthfuls of blood from her mouth as she had a minor ident in practicing her Profound Law of Heat and Cold which caused several of her meridians and internal organs to be injured by it.
Well, this might not have been a small ident if she did not have her powerful dual bloodlines and [Sun And Moon Aegis] to reduce the damage she received, [Auto Correction] to automatically correct her mistakes, and [High-Speed Regeneration] to heal all of her internal injuries.
"That damned yboy Xiao Hei~! How dare he hide this from me?!" Tang Li Xue fumed in rage while gnashing her pearl-white teeth.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy absentmindedly followed Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin as they headed to the front gate together to wait for Elder Yang''s fianc¨¦ to arrive.
Who knew Elder Yang had already waited there with all the Nascent Soul elders from the Immortal Sword Sect?!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy red at Elder Yang with a pair of eyes filled with anger and resentment from behind.
Elder Yang could sense the perfect copy''s angry stare ''stabbed'' at him from behind, but he could only pretend not to notice it for now.
Elder Yang knew that he must exin this to his Xiao Bai and apologize to her, but that was forter.
This was clearly not the right time and ce to do that.
It did not take long for a luxurious carriage to arrive there, and a young beautiful girl elegantly got off from it.
When the young beautiful girl in an elegant pink dress saw Elder Yang, she immediately smiled at him and called: "Yangyang~!"
The young beautiful girl in an elegant pink dress ran toward Elder Yang and hugged him tightly.
''Tsk~! Yangyang? What kind of cheesy nickname is that?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought disdainfully as if she had drunk a barrel of vinegar.
Elder Yang wanted to peel her off from himself, but the young beautiful girl was hugging him too tightly like a ko, so he could only helplessly say: "Rongrong, can you please stop hugging me? There are so many people watching us here."
The young beautiful girl in an elegant pink dress named Rongrong finally released Elder Yang while yfully stating: "Hehehehe... Yangyang, you are still so shy as always~! Everyone already knows that we are engaged, and we will be married soon. So what if they see us hugging each other?!"
(If any of you cannot remember who is Rongrong, you can re-
read chapters 408 to 410 first to recall what has happened before.)
Chapter 726 726: Rongrong’s Suspicion!
Chapter 726 Chapter 726: Rongrong''s Suspicion!
?At first, the other people such as Gu Shengxin, Zhu Yan, the Gu Family''s Patriarch, and all of the Nascent Soul Stage elders were here to wee Rongrong, but they felt that they became a third wheel for Elder Yang and Rongrong instead.
The atmosphere became really awkward since they did not dare to step forward to interrupt Elder Yang and Rongrong''s lovey-dovey moment.
Fortunately, Rongrong was very sensible, and she smiled at them.
"Hello, everyone~! My name is Xia Rong. You all can call me Rongrong." Rongrong cheerfully greeted all of them.
Gu Family''s Patriarch stepped forward and said: "Haha~! Miss Rongrong is as beautiful and cheerful as always."
"Master Alchemist Gu? My great-grandfather always mentioned to me how incredible your pills are. My ears almost grew callouses hearing it." Rongrong praised the Gu Family''s Patriarch.
"Haha, Old Patriarch really likes to exaggerate. My skills are not that great. Let''s go in first, Miss Rongrong. We can talk more inside." Gu Family''s Patriarch politely invited Rongrong to enter Gu Family''s mansion.
Rongrong grabbed Elder Yang''s arm again and dragged him to enter Gu Family''s mansion.
The other Nascent Soul Stage elders began to greet Rongrong one by one politely, while Rongrong cheerfully replied to them.
Then it was Gu Shengxin, Zhu Yan, and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy''s turn...
Before Gu Shengxin could say anything, Rongrong had already called him first: "Ah, let me guess~! You must be the one-in-thousand-years alchemist genius from Gu Family, Gu Shengxin, right?!"
Gu Shengxin immediately felt proud and happy when he heard Rongrong''s words.
"You are right, Miss Rongrong. I am Gu Shengxin. But my skill is only a little bit better than others, so I do not dare to ept that one-in-thousand-years alchemist genius title." Gu Shengxin humbly replied to Rongrong.
Then Rongrong nced at Zhu Yan and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy...
When Rongrong saw the perfect copy''s stunningly beautiful appearance, even she was stunned in amazement for a few moments.
But some doubt began to appear in her heart as she recalled the story from the four Nascent Soul Stage elders about an amazingly beautiful vixen who got close to her Yangyang in Tang Feng City before.
Even though the person in front of her was wearing a male outfit, but that did not rule out the possibility that she was actually a vixen disguised as a man to get close to her Yangyang.
It could be said that the woman''s intuition was truly scary.
Even Tang Li Xue and Elder Yang would never thought that this Rongrong could guess the perfect copy''s disguise and their rtionship in one nce.
"These two people..." Rongrong murmured in a doubtful tone.
Elder Yang hastily introduced Zhu Yan and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to Rongrong: "Thisdy is Young Master Gu''s benefactor. She had already saved Young Master Gu many times, so Young Master Gu invited her to stay at his ce for a while."
"This handsome guy is my close friend, Feng Bai. You can just call him Brother Feng."
Elder Yang did not mention anything about ''childhood'' close friend and only said close friend because Rongrong would surely interrogate himter if he mentioned it.
The chance of getting discovered would only increase if he tried to tell more lies.
Rongrong''s doubt had grown stronger after she heard Elder Yang''s introduction. So, she decided toment: "Oh, your close friend? You always look cold and indifferent to outsiders. I thought you never have any friends."
Cold sweat began to soak Elder Yang''s back, but he did not show it on his face as he smiled at Rongrong and said in a casual tone: "How could it be?! Even I still have one or two close friends, okay?!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy snorted disdainfully as she stated in a displeasure tone: "One or two close friends?! You only have me as your close friend, okay?! Actually, I am still very shocked that you have not told me that you already have such a beautiful fianc¨¦! Why? Are you afraid that I will snatch her from you?"
Elder Yang hastily tried to exin it: "That... is because I have not time to tell you yet... I..."
Rongrong interrupted Elder Yang halfway as she cheerfully said to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "I apologize to Brother Feng in my Yangyang''s ce. Despite his cold look, my Yangyang is actually very shy. Maybe he is too embarrassed to tell about our engagement to Brother Feng before."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nodded to Rongrong while showing her signature dazzling gentle smile to Rongrong.
Rongrong was bewitched by it for a while until Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy spoke coldly to Elder Yang: "You should be thankful that your beautiful fianc¨¦ had apologized to me in your ce. If you were the one who apologized to me, you would have to pay dearly for it."
Elder Yang shrugged his shoulder and replied: "We will talk about itter when we drink wine together, okay? Rongrong is still tired today, so I will bring her to her courtyard to rest."
Even though they were only pretending to be like a close friend right now, but Elder Yang''s words really pissed off Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy right now.
She almost could not hold on and give Elder Yang another ''ball kick''.
Luckily, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy finally had another chance to get closer to Zhu Yan because both Gu Shengxin had to busily arrange maids and servants to prepare another unupied courtyard for Rongrong to stay.
Elder Yang had to always stay with Rongrong since Rongrong would not let him go even one step further from her.
So, there was only Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Zhu Yan who had nothing to do at this moment.
Although this might be her second chance to get closer to Zhu Yan afterst night, but somehow she really could not put her mind to doing it today.
She always absentmindedly replied with ''hum'', ''oh'', ''I see'', and so on, every time Zhu Yan tried to chat with her.
Meanwhile, Elder Yang was bombarded by Rongrong with many questions about his close friend, Brother Feng Bai, such as: ''Where did you meet him for the first time'', ''What is his background'', ''Who is his parents'', ''Where does he live before'', and so on.
Elder Yang was having a great headache from Rongrong''s nonstop questions. He really wanted to just run away from here so badly, but he clearly could not do it since Rongrong hugged his arm so tightly.
Elder Yang pondered carefully for a while...
He could just tell fake information to Rongrong, but it would be bad if Rongrong asked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy about theseter to make sure of it.
So, Elder Yang decided to kick all of these questions back to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instead...
"Rongrong, it is not that I do not want to answer your questions, but I am worried that guy would be angry at me if I told you about him without his permission. That guy is quite sensitive and so hard to please. How about you ask him directly tomorrow?" Elder Yang replied to Rongrong.
"Okay~! Then I will ask him tomorrow!" Rongrong cheerfully said, but her doubt had grown stronger and stronger at this point.
After that, Rongrong chatted about many other topics with Elder Yang for the next few hours.
Then they had dinner together in Rongrong''s ce before Elder Yang made an excuse that he was already tired, so Rongrong finally released him back to his room.
When Rongrong entered back to her room, she secretly took out hermunication talisman to call several Nascent Soul Stage elders from her Immortal Sword Sect to her room.
It did not take long for those Nascent Soul Stage elders to arrive at Rongrong''s room.
After greeting them politely, Rongrong immediately asked: "Elders, can you all tell me everything you know about that Young Master Feng Bai?"
Those several Nascent Soul Stage elders nced at each other politely before saying: "Sorry, Niece Rongrong... It is not like we do not want to tell you about him, but we also do not know anything about that person. What we know is..."
They began to tell Rongrong about Young Master Feng Bai''s heroic deed in the previous battle.
However, Rongrong did not feel awe at his heroic deed, but she frowned deeply in suspicion instead.
"Elders, have you already used your [Mirror of Revtion] to check him?" Rongrong asked several Nascent Soul Stage elders.
But several Nascent Soul Stage elders shook their heads in unison.
How could they use [Mirror of Revtion] on their future young patriarch''s only close friend?!
It would be really bad if they left a bad impression on future young patriarch because of it, right?!
Rongrong knew their worries, so she did not make it difficult for them.
"Give me one of your [Mirror of Revtion]. I will try to check him with [Mirror of Revtion] tomorrow." Rongrong muttered to those several Nascent Soul Stage elders.
Chapter 727 727: Rongrong’s Sudden Gift!
Chapter 727 Chapter 727: Rongrong''s Sudden Gift!
?One of the Nascent Soul Stage elders took his [Mirror of Revtion] from his spatial ring and gave it to Rongrong.
Their [Mirror of Revtion] was actually given by Rongrong anyway to prevent the previous vixen from getting close and seducing her Yangyang again, so they did not really mind even if Rongrong asked all of them to return their [Mirror of Revtion] to her.
Those several Nascent Soul Stage elders did not chat with Rongong for long before returning to their own ces.
Rongrong also immediately went to sleep after that since she was very tired today.
She suddenly got the news that her Yangyang was heavily injured and on the verge of dying in the battle against Beast Tide yesterday.
Rongrong instantly became very worried and afraid that Yangyang would really lose his life.
Even though her great-grandfather did not allow her to go out of the Immortal Sword Sect because of the danger of Beast Tide raging everywhere in Lightwind Continent recently, but Rongrong still bravely sneaked out and rushed to this Garden City overnight to see her Yangyang''s condition.
So, it was natural that she was very tired right now.
.....
When the sky turned dark, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also escorted Zhu Yan back to her room.
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copypletely wasted today''s chance to get closer to Zhu Yan since she was mostly in a daze today.
"Uh, okay... Good night, Miss Zhu." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered to Zhu Yan as she tried to show her signature dazzling gentle smile, but it actually looked forced and gloomy instead since her currently felt chaotic mood.
Zhu Yan felt very worried when she saw the current Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Zhu Yan had already tried to cheer Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy up by chatting with her, but her attemptpletely failed.
When she saw the perfect copy''s lonely and gloomy back, Zhu Yan somehow felt really sad too.
Zhu Yan grasped her hands tightly as she firmed her resolve before she hastily chased after Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from behind while calling: "Young Master Feng~!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still in an absentminded state, so she turned around in reflex when Zhu Yan called her pseudonym.
Then Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suddenly felt something warm and soft touch her lips!
Zhu Yan actually kissed her boldly right now!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her eyes in shock and disbelief, and she almost pushed away Zhu Yan in reflex.
Fortunately, she resisted that urge and hugged Zhu Yan''s waist instead.
Under the moonlight and starry skies, they kissed each other again just like yesterday, but this time Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not use any mouth mask.
After a while, their lips separated again, and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy released Zhu Yan''s waist.
Zhu Yan blushed heavily, but she braved herself and asked: "Do you feel better? You look so sad and lonely today. I... I am sorry for that sudden kiss... I cannot bear to see you like this, so..."
"Hahahahahaha~!" Who knew that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyughed out loud all of a sudden as if she wasughing at her previous self?!
Zhu Yan tilted her head in confusion since she did not understand why Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suddenlyughed like this.
"No, Miss Zhu... Err, maybe I should call you Yan''er instead from now on. I just think something funny just now, so I amughing." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy exined to Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan sighed in relief when she saw Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had cheered up a lot right now.
"You better go back to your room right now Yan''er before I cannot hold back myself and do something impolite to you." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy teased Zhu Yan as she tried to grab Zhu Yan''s waist again.
Zhu Yan''s face turned even redder as she hastily ran back to her room, but she almost tripped and fell down.
Fortunately, Zhu Yan quickly stabilized herself by grabbing the door of her room, and she hastily closed the door of her room in embarrassment.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyughed at Zhu Yan''s silliness again in amusement.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy headed back to her room in a much better mood than before.
"My rtionship and Xiao Hei is only as master and pet before, nothing more. It is his right to have a rtionship with anyone or have any engagement with any girl. The most important thing I have to do right now is toplete my mission as soon as possible, so how could I waste my time and effort on anything else." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered to herself.
The real Tang Li Xue, who was currently in her inn''s room, nodded her head in agreement as she added: "Sigh... Now, I really regret it giving my first kiss to a scumbag like him. I am really too hasty at that time."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyughed out loud again as she replied: "It seems my luck is much better than yours. At least, I give my first kiss to a nice girl like Yan''er~!"
"Anyway, your rtionship with Yan''er had already progressed extremely quickly. It looks like our mission could bepleted sooner than we have expected." The real Tang Li Xue muttered in a joyous mood.
"It would be better that way, so we can go back to Myriad Foxes Academy before the Foxes Hunting Festival is over. I really want to see who will fight against Meng Yue in the final. Their battle should be extremely epic." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stated in a tone filled with a burning fighting spirit.
"You are right. I want to see it so badly too. Uhh, by the way... Are you sure you want to go back and stay in the same courtyard with that scumbag Yangyang?" The real Tang Li Xue said in a mocking tone.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suddenly halted her step and turned around.
"Tsk~! I do not even want to see his face anymore. I will just ask Yan''er''s permission to live in an unupied room beside her room instead." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy angrily said.
At first, Zhu Yan felt confused as to why Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy went back to her courtyard again.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gave a random excuse like ''Brother Yang is busily chatting with his fianc¨¦ right now, so he does not dare to interrupt their good time.''
In the end, Zhu Yan dly allowed Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to live in the unupied room beside her.
Even though it might not look good for a male to live in the same courtyard as her, but their rtionship was already so close, so Zhu Yan did not mind it at all.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy did not know that Elder Yang had actually anxiously waited for her to go back to his own courtyard this entire night since he wanted to give his exnation to her.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not n toe back to his ce tonight.
When the next morning arrived, Elder Yang nned to look for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but Rongrong was one step faster, and she alreadye so early to his ce before he could go looking for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
"Yangyang, where is your close friend Brother Feng? Why did not I see him today?" Rongrong inquired in a curious tone.
Elder Yang sighed sadly: "He did note back to my cest night. Maybe he was angry that I did not tell him about our engagement before."
"Then let''s look for him right now. I will help you to apologize to him. I am sure he will understand," Rongrong cheerfully said to Elder Yang.
Elder Yang wanted to refuse Rongrong''s idea since it might make Tang Li Xue even more angry at him, but Rongrong forcefully dragged him without caring if Elder Yang agreed to her or not.
Meanwhile, Zhu Yan had also woken up Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy really early today by knocking on the door of her room.
Then Zhu Yan and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy ate their breakfast delivered by the servant together.
After that, Zhu Yan and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy began to wander around in the Gu Family''s herb garden together, but they actually met with Elder Yang and Rongrong there.
Rongrong''s eyes shone brighter when she saw Zhu Yan and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
She immediately released Elder Yang''s arm and ran toward them.
"Good morning, Young Master Feng, Miss Zhu~! I just remembered that I forgot to give my meeting gift to you two yesterday. So, here you are~!" Rongrong cheerfully spoke to them while she took out two treasures from her spatial ring.
A treasure-like mirror and a talisman!
"Watch out, Yan''er~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shouted in an anxious tone.
The perfect copy instantly felt something was wrong with her [Extrasensory Perception], so she instinctively pushed away Zhu Yan to make her avoid the iing danger!
Because of her swift action, the light from [Mirror of Revtion] did not hit Zhu Yan, but the light managed to hit Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
In that instant, the perfect copy''s transfiguration ability had actually been canceled, and she turned back from her human form to her fox form!
Rongrong swiftly threw the talisman in her grasp onto Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy without any hesitation!
Chapter 728 728: City Protection Formation Activated!
Chapter 728 Chapter 728: City Protection Formation Activated!
?The light from [Mirror of Revtion] did not only have the effect of forcefully revealing the true form of any beast, demon, or ghost, but it would also stun them for a couple of seconds.
Rongrong took this chance to throw an advanced-level talisman, [Immobilization Talisman], in order to catch Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy alive.
But who knew that Elder Yang suddenly jumped in front of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to protect her, so Rongrong''s [Immobilization Talisman] struck Elder Yang''s body instead?!
BUZZ~! BUZZ~! BUZZ~! BUZZ~! BUZZ~!
Elder Yang instantly felt his entire body was electrocuted.
His entire body felt numb, and he could no longer move even his finger, but he still used hisst strength to mutter: "Xiao... Bai... Run..."
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy woke up from the [Mirror of Revtion]''s stunning effect, she shouted in panic as she swiftly approached Elder Yang to check his condition: "Xiao Hei~!"
"Yangyang?! Why did you go so far just for this vixen?! If the one I threw is a lethal advanced-level talisman, you would have already died right now, you know that?!" Rongrong screamed while gnashing her pearl-white teeth in anger, and her eyes turned bloodshot in intense jealousy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in relief after she made sure that Elder Yang was all right, and he was only immobilized by the power of the talisman for some time.
"Brother Feng... You..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy heart Zhu Yan''s voice from behind her.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy turned around, she saw Zhu Yan was actually staring at her with a pair of eyes filled with tears.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could see intense anger, disappointment, and sadness in Zhu Yan''s tearful eyes since she should have already realized that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had actually tricked her all this time.
"Yan''er, I..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy really wanted to exin everything clearly and apologize to Zhu Yan, but before she could say anything, several Nascent Soul Stage experts appeared there to capture her!
Without any other choice, the real Tang Li Xue could only use her [Twin Moons] divine ability to un-summon her perfect copy before those several Nascent Soul Stage experts could make their move to subdue her perfect copy.
In that instant, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in the fox form suddenly disappeared from there as if she was just an illusion.
"That vixen should still be in this Garden City right now. Activate the City Protection Formation to seal off the entire city and find her at all costs ~!" Rongrong gave her order to several Nascent Soul Stage experts in a chilling tone filled with intense anger, jealousy, and killing intent.
"We understand, Miss Rongrong!" Several Nascent Soul Stage experts nodded at Rongrong with solemn expressions.
.....
The real Tang Li Xue stopped practicing thebination of [Essence Devouring Technique], [Art of Concealment], and [Energy Maniption] in panic.
After she un-summoned her perfect copy, she hastily took out hermunication talisman from her space pouch to contact Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox as soon as she could.
She knew that Rongrong would never give up just like that. She would definitely seal this entire Garden City and ask all the people in the Gu Family''s mansion to hunt her down soon.
Instructor Mei Lan''s voice resounded from hermunication talisman: "Hello, Xiao Xue. Why are you contacting all of us like this? Is there any problem?"
Silly Fox anxiously shouted: "Don''t worry, Xue~! I will surely save you right now!"
Bingbing rebuked Silly Fox in annoyance: "Shut up, Silly Fox! Let Xiao Xue talk!"
Tang Li Xue informed them in a solemn tone: "Not good, the true identity of my perfect copy had been discovered by Rongrong. She suddenly used [Mirror of Revtion] to my perfect copy a few moments ago! To make it worse, she did it right in front of Zhu Yan!"
Instructor Mei Lan calmly gave her instruction to her three students: "All right, I understand. We all will go back and gather in the inn right now."
When Tang Li Xue hung up the connection of hermunication talisman, the entire Garden City was suddenly shrouded in a dim blue light barrier as the City Protection Formation was activated.
"Damn it~! They already activated the City Protection Formation to trap us down in this city!" Tang Li Xue scolded in a more solemn tone.
But Tang Li Xue did not panic at all.
She had faced the same situation at the Foxes Hunting Festival before.
In fact, the situation at that time was much worse than now, since she did not have Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan with her, while Little Loki could not use its [Heaven''s Devour] divine ability.
It only took less than one minute for Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan toe back and gather in the inn.
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and Yaya with her, then they attended an urgent meeting in Instructor Mei Lan''s room.
"The situation in the city has be very chaotic right now because they suddenly activated City Protection Formation without any warning. We can take this chance to mingle with people to hide from their chase." Bingbing gave her suggestion.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and immediately rejected Bingbing''s idea: "No, they will surely check everyone on the street using their [Mirror of Revtion] one by one. Not to mention, we cannot hide ourselves from Nascent Soul Stage experts'' divine sense."
"However, hiding in this inn is also not a good idea since they will surely check this ce sooner orter. At this rate, we will surely be discovered by them no matter where we run or hide." Instructor Mei Lan concluded in frustration.
"My Little Loki has a special power to create a hole in any formation. I can let Little Loki use it to make a hole in this City Protection Formationter if we want to escape from this Garden City." Tang Li Xue decided to tell them about one of Little Loki''s powerful abilities.
Then Bingbing muttered in hesitation: "But if we escape from here just like that, what about our mission and Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei?"
Tang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox instantly fell silent for a while.
They were clearly unwilling to give up on this S-grade difficulty urgent mission just like that after they wasted so much of their effort and time to carry it out.
Especially Tang Li Xue since she was really worried that Zhu Yan''s true identity as Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei would be discovered by them too sooner orter since they have that annoying [Mirror of Revtion].
She did not dare to imagine what kind of treatment Zhu Yan would receive from Rongrong and Gu Shengxin if her identity as Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei was discoveredter.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at Tang Li Xue instead and said to her: "What do you think? Since you have managed to get closer to Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei really well these days, do you think she will obediently follow us if we try to pick her upter?"
Tang Li Xue shook her head before replying: "I do not know. Thest time I saw her, she looked at me in great disappointment and sadness as if I had told a huge lie to her. She must be very broken-hearted because of it."
"But no matter what she feels about me right now, I definitely could not leave her alone in this ce. Because it is too dangerous for a sea beast like her to stay here! I have to bring her out from there as soon as possible." Tang Li Xue muttered in a firm tone.
As for her Xiao Hei or Elder Yang, Tang Li Xue thought he would most likely be all right since she had already seen how badly Rongrong falling in love with Elder Yang.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled in satisfaction when she saw Tang Li Xue''s growth.
Previously, Tang Li Xue could only follow Instructor Mei Lan''s every decision, but right now, she has begun to show a sign of leader.
"All right, just tell us what is your n. Do you need our help to sneak into Gu Family''s mansion again?" Instructor Mei Lan asked.
But Tang Li Xue shook her head to reject Instructor Mei Lan''s offer while saying: "No, that is too dangerous. I think I will just send my perfect copy again to fetch her, while we sneak out of this Garden City using Little Loki''s ability before those Nascent Soul Stage experts can find us."
Bingbing and Silly Fox immediately expressed their objections: "No way~! Xiao Xue, you already said it is too dangerous, so how could we let you do it alone?!"
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes as she replied in a casual tone: "I am only sending my perfect copy, so it is not dangerous for me at all. You two do not need to worry. I will never do anything rash to endanger myself."
Chapter 729 729: Long Forgotten Effect!
Chapter 729 Chapter 729: Long Forgotten Effect!
?Of course, Bingbing and Silly Fox knew that Tang Li Xue would not be in danger if she only used her perfect copy to sneak into the Gu Family''s mansion to fetch Zhu Yan.
But the previous incident when Tang Li Xue suddenly used [Swap] to exchange her location with her perfect copy, and then her perfect copy fell into aa made them really worried about her.
Tang Li Xue could only helplessly promise that she would not do something rash this time in order to reassure them.
Instructor Mei Lan murmured while frowning deeply: "Your n is not bad, but we better not make any rash move for now since the current situation in Garden City is too tense."
"There are too many guards and Nascent Soul Stage experts patrolling on the street while checking anyone they meet with their [Mirror of Revtion]. I think we have to wait patiently in the inn for a few more days until the situation bes a bit calmer. What do you think?" Instructor Mei Lan suggested to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in agreement without any hesitation.
Although she was really worried about Zhu Yan''s safety, she was not stupid enough to break into the Gu Family''s mansion again just after she escaped out of there today.
Even if she used her [Etheral Form] and [Art of Concealment] to sneak into the Gu Family''s mansion, she would surely get caught in an instant by Nascent Soul Stage experts since they could detect her by sensing her soul using their divine sense.
The only way for her to sessfully sneak into the Gu Family''s mansion was by relying on Instructor Mei Lan''s disguise art.
Instructor Mei Lan instructed her three students to just rest in their respective rooms these few days, but she also warned them not to make any suspicious movements that could attract other people''s attention.
Especially Tang Li Xue, since she had already made several suspicious movements that attracted many people''s attention before! She even ruined her own room in the inn several times already and forced them to change their inn once!
Tang Li Xue could only shrug her shoulder helplessly when Instructor Mei Lan emphasized that warning to her.
However, Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox still red at her as if they were waiting for her promise.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly as she said in a reassuring tone: "All right, I am sorry, okay? I will never do it again... Well, at least at this critical time... But I can guarantee you all that I did not do it on purpose at all. Those were only idents before!"
Only then did Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox sigh in relief, then let Tang Li Xue bring Little Loki and Yaya back to her room.
Since they could not leave the inn in these few days, Tang Li Xue could only take out the rations she prepared beforehand in her space pouch to feed Little Loki and Yaya as their dinner in her room.
Just being idle for a few hours made Tang Li Xue, who had already been practicing her several techniques diligently all this time, extremely itchy to practice again.
Unfortunately, she did not dare to do it after Instructor Mei Lan warned her sternly many times this afternoon.
Then she suddenly recalled the long-forgotten effect of her [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl].
[Effect 3: Projecting all of the Sun Dragon King''s memories and experiences into the owner''s mind.]
Thest time Tang Li Xue used this effect to enter Sun Dragon King''s memories was before she entered Inheritance Ground Tablet.
But no matter how hard she tried before, the longest time she could survive was only 25 days there.
Tang Li Xue sat in a lotus position as she tried to challenge the Sun Dragon King''s memories after such a long time.
She believed that with her current self after so many improvements, she should be able tost until the end!
After she entered the Sun Dragon King''s memories, she began with her usual start...
Hatching from the dragon egg and being born as a tiny red dragon cub...
Eating the egg crust to obtain enough nutrients to face the next challenge¡
KKKKKEEEEEEAAAAAAKKKK~~!!!
Then here ites, the first boss, the [Colossal Golden Eagle]!
When the [Colossal Golden Eagle] suddenly dived down to grab her with its sharp ws, Tang Li Xue swiftly rolled to the right side to avoid it!
Before the [Colossal Golden Eagle] could fly away again, Tang Li Xue took this chance to bite the upper part of its talon using its sharp dragon fangs.
PUFF~!
KKKKKEEEEEEAAAAAAKKKK~~!!!
The [Colossal Golden Eagle] chirped in pain and fury.
The angry [Colossal Golden Eagle] used its sharp beak to peck at Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue always tried to avoid this attack before, but right now, she suddenly spun her body instead!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
BAAANG~!
Tang Li Xue not only managed to repel [Colossal Golden Eagle]''s shark beak attack, but she also took this chance to jump and bite at [Colossal Golden Eagle]''s neck!
PUFF~!
This bite was so fatal, and it made [Colossal Golden Eagle]''s neck bleed profusely!
[Colossal Golden Eagle] shook its head again and again to shake away Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue bit its neck tighter instead!
After a few minutes of intense struggle, [Colossal Golden Eagle] finally could not hold on anymore and fell down weakly.
''I... I won?! Uooohhh~! I finally won against this first boss~!'' Tang Li Xue had an urge to shout out loud to express her joy, but she decided to suppress it instead.
Previously, Tang Li Xue had been killed by this [Colossal Golden Eagle] hundreds or even thousands of times already, and she could only survive by escaping from it, but tonight, she could finally defeat it head-on!
Tang Li Xue''s confidence swelled so much because of it.
After eating the [Colossal Golden Eagle]''s beast core and meat until she was full, she had actually grown much stronger than before.
She started her journey again and challenged the other beasts in the forest while nurturing and refining her tiny spark of the me which should be the embryonic form of Pure Yang Sun me!
After surviving for 5 days, she met a huge monkey on her way... She defeated it with ease using [Redirection Flow] and [Tracing Counter], then ate its beast core and meat.
Even her tiny spark of the me had grown to the size of a basketball at that moment.
After surviving for 9 days, she was trapped by a huge Venus trap... She burned it down easily using her me.
After surviving for 15 days, she ambushed white unicorns several times in those few days when they wanted to drink the water from theke.
Eating their beast cores and meat made Tang Li Xue''s strength and me grow much stronger again.
Those white unicorns have powerful lightning-type divine abilities.
If Tang Li Xue tried to fight against them head-on and identally got zapped by the white unicorn''s lightning even once, she would certainly die in one st.
Tang Li Xue might not be able to use any of her active divine abilities in this Sun Dragon King''s memories, but her passive divine abilities such as her [Super Speed] and [Extrasensory Perception] still increased her reaction speed and sensing range by many times.
Thanks to them, she managed to avoid white unicorns'' lightning and took them down one by one every day.
After surviving for 20 days, Tang Li Xue decided to increase the difficulty of her challenge by hunting a giant me tiger.
It took a lot of effort for Tang Li Xue to defeat it, and their fierce battle also took a few days.
When Tang Li Xue devoured the giant me tiger''s beast core and meat, the king of the forest actually came toward her!
The king of the forest was an enormous frost lion.
Tang Li Xue tried her best to fight against it, but she finally fell under its w in the end.
Tang Li Xue felt really unwilling, so she entered the Sun Dragon King''s memories and challenged the enormous frost lion again and again.
Unfortunately, she still could not win against the enormous frost lion after several hundreds of tries.
"Damn it~! This frost lion is clearly too strong for me to defeat at this point! This game... err, I mean this trial is a huge scam, right?! It should be impossible for a mere dragon cub to win against that enormous adult frost lion!" Tang Li Xueined in anger.
But her hunch said she might get something good from [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] if she managed toplete this trial by defeating that enormous adult frost lion.
Then a light of inspiration shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind all of a sudden.
"Hey, what if I let my perfect copy use [Paranormal Intuition] again to find a way for a tiny fire dragon cub to defeat that enormous adult frost lion?!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she smiled in excitement.
Chapter 730 730: Tang Li Xue’s Domain Prototype!
Chapter 730 Chapter 730: Tang Li Xue''s Domain Prototype! ?
?Tang Li Xue used her [Twin Moons] divine ability to summon out her perfect copy again without any hesitation.
The perfect copy rolled her eyes at Tang Li Xue andined pitifully: "Why the heck do you always call me to do something so troublesome?! You... You clearly always abuse me as your perfect copy~! I want to sue you for viting clone rights!"
Tang Li Xue coughed in embarrassment, but she still tried to persuade her perfect copy with her speech: "All right, I get it that you feel unhappy because I always let you do troublesome things, but this time, it is clearly necessary!"
"If we can be stronger, our chance toplete the mission to save Zhu Yan from that ursed Gu Family''s mansion will increase significantly!"
"You also want to save Zhu Yan just like me, right? So, stop making trouble and just do whatever you can, okay?!" Tang Li Xue ended her speech.
The perfect copy still hesitated for a while with a sullen expression, but in the end, she still decided to use [Paranormal Intuition] just as the real Tang Li Xue had thought.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt extremely suffocated again as her soul and consciousness were thrown into a deep dazzling golden sea of knowledge.
Countless minuscule golden runes and words, which contained a boundless amount of knowledge, began to rush toward her.
If she did not do anything to narrow down these unlimited amounts of knowledge and only absorbed the knowledge she needed, her soul and consciousness would definitely be crushed to nothingness by them.
Just like before, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately set her target for the information and knowledge she wanted to find.
What Tang Li Xue wanted to know was the way for a tiny fire dragon cub to defeat that enormous adult frost lion!
The first piece of information she got was about the enormous adult frost lion.
Surprisingly, the enormous adult frost lion''s identity was another variant of Bai Ze!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were very shocked about this...
It should be known that Bai Ze was a mythical level creature that was almostparable to the dragon!
No wonder when Tang li Xue controlled the tiny fire dragon, she could not defeat the enormous adult frost lion no matter how hard she tried.
Moreover, this variant of Bai Ze could wield ice and wind divine abilities. It was much more aggressive and vicious than the ordinary Bai Ze.
Even the real newborn Sun Dragon King was almost killed by this variant of Bai Ze in this trial before.
But at the critical moment, the newborn Sun Dragon King suddenly awakened, then it mastered the Profound Law of the Sun me and used it to create its prototype domain, [Sun Dragon Domain].
With its [Sun Dragon Domain], the newborn Sun Dragon King could barely defeat the Bai Ze variant, then devour its beast core, blood, and meat which became the first foundation of its rise.
In this trial of Sun Dragon King''s memories, Sun Dragon King should also hope that its descendants could master any profoundw and create their own prototype domain, then use it to defeat this Bai Ze variant.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also obtained extremely crucial information about the different applications of Profound Law!
While the Human Race integrated the Profound Law they had mastered into their spells and martial arts, the Beast Race actually integrated the Profound Law they had mastered into their divine abilities to create their own unique domain!
As for why Meng Yue or Lei Qian''er did not mention anything about Profound Law before, it was because they also did not know that they had mastered the Profound Law from their divine abilities and used it to create their own domain.
Well... In short, the Beast Race always does it instinctively after they wield the same divine abilities for so many times while the Human Race does it consciously over a long term of practice and cultivation.
"I see... Now I truly understand the difference between Tu Shan''s teachings and Qing Qiu''s teachings." Tang Li Xue murmured with an enlightened expression.
"Tu Shan''s teachings put the utmost importance in honing only a few divine abilities to the peak just so we can master the Profound Law behind them and use it to create their own domain faster."
"Qing Qiu''s teachings emphasize using one divine ability as a core while the other as an auxiliary to form aplete system, so after we master the Profound Law, we can create a powerfulplete domain."
"Tu Shan''s teachings or Qing Qiu''s teachings... No, that matter should be a choice between faster or more powerful..." Tang Li Xue concluded from the information that her perfect copy obtained from the golden sea of knowledge.
When the perfect copy reaches the part about using the Profound Law to create her own unique domain... She finally could not hold on anymore.
WEEENG~!
The equipment skill from her [Heaven Covering Ne], [Spirit Cover], automatically activated to protect her soul, mind, and consciousness from any harm caused by overusing [Paranormal Intuition] divine ability!
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still fell unconscious as usual.
The real Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she rubbed her forehead to ease her headache.
The information she obtained from the golden sea of knowledge was quite shocking, so she might need some time to digest it.
This should be the right time for her to do it since she would not be able to do anything in these few days until Instructor Mei Lan informed her that the situation had calmed down.
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes as she entered the Sun Dragon King''s memories.
But this time, she did not challenge any beasts or opponents rashly like before but spent most of her timeprehending the Profound Law from the tiny spark of the me which should be the embryonic form of Pure Yang Sun me.
From the information obtained from [Paranormal Intuition], Tang Li Xue finally realized the true worth behind this tiny spark of me was actually for her toprehend the Profound Law of the Sun me just like what the Sun Dragon King did before!
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not n to blindly follow the Sun Dragon King''s path.
Rather than trying toprehend the new Profound Law of the Sun me, she nned to use the red dragon cub''s me spark to practice and strengthen her mastery over the Profound Law of Heat and Cold instead.
In these few days, Tang Li Xue only ate together with Yaya and Little Loki in her own room, then she would challenge the Sun Dragon King''s memories again and again tirelessly.
She also challenged Bai Ze again and again while trying toprehend the Profound Law of Cold from Bai Ze''s ice and wind divine abilities.
When Tang Li Xue checked her mastery of the Profound Law of Heat and Cold from her System''s window status, she found out that it was also increasing steadily.
Yang Chaotic Form (Profound Law of Heat and Cold [1.53%])...
Yang Chaotic Form (Profound Law of Heat and Cold [1.65%])...
Yang Chaotic Form (Profound Law of Heat and Cold [1.78%])...
At first, Tang Li Xue was also very shocked by this speed of improvement, but she immediately found the reason.
The time she spent in Sun Dragon King''s memories was actually much longer than in reality, so it was not strange that her improvement was so rapid in reality because she actually had spent several months or even years in theSun Dragon King''s memories.
After her mastery over the Profound Law of Heat and Cold reached 3%, she decided to try to create her own unique domain based on the information about [Sun Dragon Domain] that she obtained from the dazzling golden sea of knowledge.
"Sun... Sun Domain, huh... I also have [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline, so creating the Sun-rted Domain should be no problem. But I think that is not enough... and it is not very suitable for me since I also have [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline. Moreover, most of my divine abilities are rted to the moon." Tang Li Xue murmured while frowning deeply.
"Then let''s just create [Sun and Moon Domain] instead! Using the Profound Law of Heat and Cold to create [Sun and Moon Domain]... Perfect~!" Tang Li Xue said as she pped her hands and smiled in excitement.
After finalizing her n for her domain, Tang Li Xue immediately closed her topaz blue eyes and sunk her consciousness back into Sun Dragon King''s memories.
Since the flow of time in the Sun Dragon King''s memories was much faster than in reality, it would be much more efficient if she tried to create her domain in Sun Dragon King''s memories.
Unfortunately, the process of creating a domain was not as easy as Tang Li Xue had thought, especially since she only mastered 3% of the Profound Law of Heat and Cold.
But at the very least, Tang Li Xue still managed to create a raw prototype of her own unique domain, [Sun and Moon Domain]!
Chapter 731 731: Tang Li Xue’s Third Choice!
Chapter 731 Chapter 731: Tang Li Xue''s Third Choice!
?In her room, Tang Li Xue sat in the lotus position on her bed with her eyes closed.
There was a faint image of the moon behind her back,bined with her peerless beautiful look, she looked like a moon goddess right now.
The temperature of her room instantly plummed and a thinyer of frost began to spread around with her as the center.
Then the white light around her transformed into golden light.
The faint image of the moon behind her back suddenly changed into the faint image of the golden sun making Tang Li Xue look like a Bodhisattva.
In that instant, the temperature of her room instantly rose sharply and the thinyer of frost evaporated in a blink of an eye.
Before the faint image of the golden sun could set her entire room on fire, Tang Li Xue immediately turned off her raw domain prototype of [Sun and Moon Domain].
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes and sighed in disappointment while muttering in frustration: "Why the heck only one between the sun or the moon that can exist when I try to activate my [Sun and Moon Domain]?!"
But Tang Li Xue shook her head to calm herself down and said: "No, I am clearly too greedy... My mastery over the Profound Law of Heat and Cold only reached 3%, so how could I try to create a domain where the sun and moon can appear at the same time..."
Then Tang Li Xue''s expression turned tense when her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed that a Nascent Soul Stage expert actually flew closer to her inn.
She sneakily peeked through the gap of her closed window to see what that Nascent Soul Stage expert was doing.
Even though it was dark right now because it was nighttime, but Tang Li Xue could see everything clearly because of her [Night Vision].
Tang Li Xue saw the Nascent Soul Stage expert use his [Mirror of Revtion] to shine all the people on the street in front of the inn while hovering in the air.
TOK~! TOK~! TOK~!
At this time, someone knocked at the door of Tang Li Xue''s room.
Tang Li Xue did not rashly open the door but used her [Extrasensory Perception] to sense who was knocked on the door of her room.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she realized it was actually Instructor Mei Lan, so she immediately opened the door of her room without any hesitation.
Surprisingly, even Bingbing and Silly Fox were already with Instructor Mei Lan right now.
"Let''s go! We cannot stay in this inn anymore. That Nascent Soul Stage expert will surely check everyone living inside all the buildings on this street with his [Mirror of Revtion] soon." Instructor Mei Lan informed Tang Li Xue with a solemn tone.
Tang Li Xue nodded as she hastily took Yaya and Little Loki who slept tightly on the bed into her System''s pet space.
However, Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox did not secretly run away like before since it could arouse the Nascent Soul Stage expert''s suspicion.
Nascent Soul Stage expert kept using his divine sense to scan the entire buildings on this street from time to time, so their every action should also be under his observation.
Rather than doing everything sneakily like a group of thieves and attracting the Nascent Soul Stage expert''s suspicion, Instructor Mei Lan decided to check out from the inn tantly.
Instructor Mei Lan even deliberately showed her displeasure at the annoying divine sense that kept scanning the inn when they checked out from the inn.
Even Tang Li Xue had to admit Instructor Mei Lan''s n and acting were quite brilliant.
Well... They looked like a group of young beautiful girls after all except for Silly Fox who should be their bodyguard in the eyes of others.
It would be extremely embarrassing for them if the Nascent Soul Stage expert was using his divine sense to scan their room when they were changing their clothes or taking a bath.
Instructor Mei Lan used this excuse to make the Nascent Soul Stage expert ashamed.
Although Tang Li Xue did not see the Nascent Soul Stage expert, she could already imagine the blushing face of that Nascent Soul Stage expert when he heard Instructor Mei Lan''sint.
As for the reason why they could sense the Nascent Soul Stage expert''s divine sense, everyone could actually sense it too since the Nascent Soul Stage expert did not bother to hide it at all and did it tantly.
But no one dared toin about it because they were afraid of Nascent Soul Stage expert''s wrath.
All the Nascent Soul Stage experts also tantly scanned with their divine sense in order to make the beasts who disguise themselves as humans panic, so they could easily find and catch those beasts.
Unfortunately, their current opponents were the cunning foxes...
Not only Instructor Mei Lan and her three students did not panic and run away like a group of fugitives should do, but they even put on an act to shame that Nascent Soul Stage expert instead.
That nascent Soul Stage expert did not even dare to show up and scan them using his [Mirror of Revtion] as they walked out from the inn while putting angry act.
Of course, it did not mean Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox were alreadypletely out of danger since they surely had to face second Nascent Soul Stage expert, third, fourth, and so on who would using their [Mirror of Revtion] to blow their cover.
But at least they managed to pass the first hurdle safely for now.
"Instructor Lan, where should we go now? Should we sneak out of the Garden City right now?" Bingbing asked to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply and thought for a few moments before she stared at Tang Li Xue instead and asked: "What do you think?"
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise when Instructor Mei Lan asked her.
Then Instructor Mei Lan exined it clearly to Tang Li Xue: "I have a secret channel to bring you all to the edge of Garden City. With the ability of your ck cat, it should not be a problem for us to get out of this Garden City and return to Myriad Foxes Academy."
"But that also means we would abandon this S-grade urgent mission and Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei would lose her life. So, which one do you choose?" Instructor Mei Lan let Tang Li Xue make the choice.
In fact, Instructor Mei Lan preferred to bring all of her students out of Garden City as soon as possible since this mission was already almost impossible toplete in this situation.
Instructor Mei Lan really regretted her previous rash attempt to kill Elder Yang and thought her n was truly too reckless at that time.
Because of this, Elder Yang''s fianc¨¦ came here and ruined their mission by blowing Tang Li Xue''s cover.
Fortunately, it was notpletely in vain.
Instructor Mei Lan already got the news that Elder Yang''s fianc¨¦ woulde to this Garden City ahead of time, so she made Tang Li Xue promise her.
As long as Tang Li Xue kept her promiseter, Instructor Mei Lan thought her previous attempt might not bepletely in vain.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan currently also felt very guilty about Tang Li Xue since their situation became like because of her fault, so she decided to let Tang Li Xue choose their next n instead.
Tang Li Xue bit her pink lips as she began to ponder carefully about their next n.
Her previous n was just to send her perfect copy to fetch Zhu Yan while her real self would sneak out of this Garden City with Instructor Mei Lan, Silly Fox, and Bingbing.
But she immediately realized that her idea was too naive...
Because the distance between her real self and her perfect copy would be too far that way, so her perfect copy would be automatically un-summoned if she went out of this Garden City!
The only way was for the real her to hide somewhere near the Gu Family''s mansion while her perfect copy sneaked into the Gu Family''s mansion to fetch Zhu Yan.
However, her real self, Instructor Mei Lan, Silly Fox, and Bingbing could be discovered by the patrolling Nascent Soul Stage elders at any time with their divine sense as long as they were still inside this Garden City.
In short, Tang Li Xue currently had two choices...
The first choice was trying to save Zhu Yan but it would bring herself, Instructor Mei Lan, Silly Fox, and Bingbing into danger since they could be discovered and caught by the patrolling Nascent Soul Stage elders...
The second choice was to abandon Zhu Yan and escape from this Garden City with Instructor Mei Lan, Silly Fox, and Bingbing...
After hesitating for a while, Tang Li Xue decided to choose... the third choice!
Chapter 732 732: Secret Passage!
Chapter 732 Chapter 732: Secret Passage!
?"Let''s go, Instructor Lan~! Bring us to the secret channel you talked about." Tang Li Xue said to Instructor Mei Lan in a firm tone.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded at Tang Li Xue while smiling in admiration.
Instructor Mei Lan did not object to Tang Li Xue''s choice to escape from Garden City since the current situation had already deteriorated too much, and their lives would certainly be in danger if they stayed longer in Garden City.
"Okay, you three... Follow me closely and do not talk unless I let you talk! Do you understand?!" Instructor Mei Lan warned her three students with a stern tone.
"Understood~!" Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox replied in unison with serious expressions.
Instructor Mei Lan hastened her steps while Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox followed her closely from behind.
Even though it was already night, and the sky had turned dark, but there were still many people roaming around the street and many peddlers setting their stalls on the side of the street.
The traveling speed of Instructor Mei Lan and her three students slowed down because of those people, but it also made Instructor Mei Lan''s group inconspicuous.
It took an hour or so for Instructor Mei Lan''s group to reach their destination since they needed to avoid the Nascent Soul Stage elders who were patrolling with their [Mirror of Revtion] and took the detour.
Instructor Mei Lan led Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox into the crowded night market.
At the entrance, Instructor Mei Lan spent some money to buy several fox masks from one of the stalls.
Instructor Mei Lan wore the fox mask, and she gave the rest of the fox mask to her three students, then told them to wear the fox mask before entering the night market.
After they entered the night market while wearing the fox mask, Instructor Mei Lan brought her three students to buy some random items from the nine different stores.
Snacks, clothes, candied hawthorns,?seasonings, drugs, dried meats, and so on...
Strangely, Instructor Mei Lan always said something strange to those peddlers and shopkeepers.
She said: "I want to buy a favor from you."
Then those peddlers and shopkeepers would receive the spirit stones from Instructor Mei Lan and give the bought items along with a piece of fragmented badge.
After collecting nine pieces of fragmented badges from those nine different stores, Instructor Mei Lanbined them into aplete badge.
Instructor Mei Lan led her three students into a crowded gambling house.
But she did not have any intention to gamble but immediately went to one of the thugs who guarded beside the stair to the second floor and gave the badge to him while saying: "I want to see Mama Vixen."
The thugs saw that Instructor Mei Lan and her three students wore the fox mask, so they did not ask anything as one of them went to the second floor with the badge given by Instructor Mei Lan.
After some time, the thug went down from the second floor and muttered to Instructor Mei Lan along with her three students: "You can go upstairs. Mama Vixen is already waiting for you."
Instructor Mei Lan removed the fox mask on her face, then her three students also followed her and removed their fox masks.
Instructor Mei Lan and her three students went to the second floor and entered a luxurious-looking room together.
A stunning young woman with scattered long ck hair had waited for them inside that luxurious-looking room.
She was currently smoking with a long pipe while sitting leisurely on the sofa.
Tang Li Xue wanted to secretly inspect this stunning young woman with her basic [All Knowing Eyes], but the stunning young woman stared at her sharply before she could do it.
Tang Li Xue''s body stiffened in an instant, and her entire body felt cold as if she had fallen into an ice pool.
She faintly felt an enormous threat from the stunning young woman, but it immediately vanished in the blink of an eye.
Tang Li Xue gasped heavily as her back soaked with cold sweat.
She realized that the stunning young woman had just warned her.
The stunning young woman stopped paying attention to Tang Li Xue as she took a talisman from her spatial ring and used it to iste the entire room to avoid getting peeked or eavesdropped.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled as she sat across the stunning young woman and stated: "Mama Vixen should already know what we want to do, right?"
The stunning young woman puffed out the smoke while replying: "So you have decided to bring your people out from this Garden City. Not a bad choice since the situation in this Garden City has be too tense recently."
The stunning young woman put the smoking long pipe onto her lips and muttered: "But the City Protection Formation covered the entire Garden City, so the secret passage out of Garden City is also blocked by it."
Instructor Mei Lan replied with a reassuring tone: "Mama Vixen do not need to worry about that. We have our own way to pass through the City Protection Formation''s blocking."
The stunning young woman raised her eyebrow in amusement as she murmured curiously: "Oh? Do you really have a way to pass through the City Protection Formation? How interesting~! Can you tell me how you do it?"
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and stated: "I am really sorry, Mama Vixen. But that is our secret. So, I cannot tell you about it."
The stunning young woman instantly lost her interest and said: "It is such a pity. Oh well... Forget it~!"
The stunning young woman tapped her smoking pipe three times onto the beautifully carved porcin ashtray.
Then a man wearing an iron mask and ck martial suit instantly appeared right in front of the stunning young woman.
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Silly Fox: "???!!!"
Bingbing: "???!!!"
The three of them were very surprised since they did not sense anything until now!
They immediately put their battle stance as they raised their vignce to the maximum against the man in the iron mask.
"Your people are still too naive. If they are in the enemy ce, they would have killed long ago." The stunning young woman sneered at Instructor Mei Lan with a hint of mocking.
Instructor Mei Lan showed her gentle smile to the stunning young woman and replied: "My people stillck experience. But Mama Vixen does not need to worry."
CLANG~!
The iron mask on the man''s face was cut into tiny pieces and scattered on the floor revealing his fierce face filled with many scars.
The cut surface of the iron mask was very smooth like a mirror. It was hard to imagine how sharp the thing used to cut it.
"I never rely on them to protect myself." Instructor Mei Lan continued to say with a gentle smile on her beautiful face.
In that instant, the atmosphere in the room became extremely tense and suffocating as if the two of them were ready to sh against each other at any time.
Tang Li Xue, Silly Fox, and Bingbing did not even understand anymore whether the stunning young woman and the fierce-
looking man were their enemies or allies.
After a few moments, the tense and suffocating atmosphere was broken by the stunning young woman''s charmingugh.
"Pfftt~! Hahahahaha~! You are also a very interesting person~! Okay, bring them to our secret passage." The stunning young womanughed in amusement and ordered the fierce-looking man to lead Instructor Mei Lan''s group to their secret passage.
"Thank you very much, Mama Vixen." Instructor Mei Lan lowered her head to the stunning young woman before bringing her three students to follow the fierce-looking man.
Tang Li Xue curiously asked Instructor Mei Lan with telepathy: "Instructor Lan, is that woman our ally or foe?"
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xue before replying with telepathy too: "She is neither our ally nor our foe. She is a three-quarter human and one-quarter fox beast. Her rtionship with our Fox n is more about mutual benefit."
"But we must never show any weakness to her, or she would definitely do something detrimental to us." Instructor Mei Lan added.
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise.
"Wha... What the hell?! Three-quarter human and one-quarter fox beast?! So, she is a human or beast?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in disbelief and asked with telepathy.
"She is neither. She is just a greedy creature who always seeks profit from every one. Anyway, you better notmunicate with her without me in the future or you might be in danger. Do you understand?!" Instructor Mei Lan warned in a stern tone, but her previous tone was filled with mocking and disgust.
"I understand, Instructor Lan~!" Tang Li Xue in a serious tone.
The fierce-looking man brought Instructor Mei Lan and her three students to a secret elevator behind the bookshelves inside the young woman''s luxurious room.
After the five of them rode on that secret elevator, it descended and took them to the basement.
The fierce-looking man took out a key from his spatial ring and used it to open the gate leading to a long secret passage that probably leads outside of Garden City.
"I can only take you here. You have to pass through this secret passage by yourselves." The fierce-looking man said to Instructor Mei Lan''s group with a rough voice.
"Okay, we understand. Thank you very much for your help." Instructor Mei Lan replied to the fierce-looking man in a t tone.
Chapter 733 733: Alone!
Chapter 733 Chapter 733: Alone!
?After Instructor Mei Lan and her three students passed through the gate, the fierce-looking man locked the gate again.
Instructor Mei Lan led Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox to sprint through the dark secret passage, but they never lowered their guards at all.
On their way, they saw many carriages filled with goods parked on the side of the dark secret passage.
It seemed this secret passage was not only used by that ''Mama Vixen'' to get in and out of the Garden City undiscovered by anyone, but she also used this secret passage to smuggle many things illegally.
Unfortunately, her illegal activities had to be temporarily halted since the City Protection Formation covered the entire Garden City including the underground.
With their speed and without anyone hindering their way, Instructor Mei Lan''s group managed to reach the ce blocked by City Protection Formation in less than half an hour.
Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox halted their step when they saw the transparent golden barrier in front of them.
Since the City Protection Formation was blocking them here, it meant the edge of the Garden City was already right above this underground secret tunnel.
"Little Xue, we can only rely on you for this one." Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xne and muttered to her.
Tang Li Xue nodded at Instructor Mei Lan with a serious expression as she released the sleeping Little Loki from her System''s pet space.
Tang Li Xue caressed Little Loki''s soft furry body gently in her embrace to wake it up.
When Little Lokizily woke up and yawned, Tang Li Xue whispered to it: "Little Loki, can you please help us make a hole in this formation in front of us?"
"Nyaaoo~! Mew meow nyaw..." (It''s easy~! Leave it to me...)
Little Loki jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s warm embrace and approached the transparent golden barrier.
It nced disdainfully at Instructor Mei Lan and put on a smug look when it walked past Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes, but she did not bother to lower her IQ to argue with a mere ck cat.
Then Little Loki opened its mouth widely...
[Heaven''s Devour]~!
BWOOOSSH~!
In that instant, the transparent golden barrier and even the surrounding space were trembling violently!
The scenery in front of them was distorted as the transparent golden barrier along with the surrounding space was moving toward Little Loki''s mouth as if Little Loki devoured the City Protection Formation along with the space around it!
After a few breaths, Little Loki stopped its [Heaven''s Devour] and licked its lips as if it savored the taste of a part of the City Protection Formation it had just swallowed.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox dropped their jaw in shock and stunned for a few seconds.
"Woah~! Little Xue, your ck cat is so fierce~! It can even bite a hole in that powerful formation!" Bingbing was the first one who eximed in excitement and admiration.
"Urgh... I really envy that cat... It can always stay in Xue''s embrace every day..." Silly Fox''s brain was working differently when he was near Tang Li Xue, so no one bothered to care about his words.
"All right, let''s go~! I am afraid some Nascent Soul Stage experts would notice the w in their City Protection Formation, so we must take this chance to get out of this Garden City as soon as possible." Instructor Mei Lan warned her three students in a solemn tone.
Instructor Mei Lan hastily led her three students to pass the City Protection Formation through the hole created by Little Loki using its [Heaven''s Devour].
But Tang Li Xue, who was behind the others, suddenly halted her step right before she passed through the hole in the City Protection Formation and secretly whispered a few words to Little Loki in her embrace.
Little Loki showed a dissatisfied expression and reluctantly did what Tang Li Xue told it to do.
Little Loki spat out the part of the City Protection Formation it just swallowed, and surprisingly, the City Protection Formation was restored to usual without any hole or w!
Instructor Mei Lan was the first one to notice Tang Li Xue''s suspicious movement, but it was already one step toote.
Instructor Mei Lan turned around and stared at Tang Li Xue while questioning her in an angry tone: "Little Xue, what are you doing at the time like this?! Stop joking, this is not funny!"
Bingbing and Silly Fox worriedly wanted to go back too, but the City Protection Formation blocked their way.
However, Tang Li Xue shook her head and smiled at Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox while saying: "I am sorry, Instructor Lan and everyone. I really have to save Zhu Yan, but I do not want to drag you all into danger just because of my selfishness, so I decide to do this."
"Little Xue~! How can you do this?! We are a team! So, it is only natural for us to face danger together toplete our mission!" Bingbing anxiously shouted to Tang Li Xue with a pair of teary eyes.
"Xue, what are you talking about?! You are not only our teammate, you are our family! So how could you push us out of danger while you face the danger yourself?!" Silly Fox shouted in a tone filled with anger and unwillingness.
Tang Li Xue felt really guilty when she heard their moving words, but she had already determined to do this, and she did not regret it at all.
"I am really sorry everyone... You all can return to Myriad Foxes Academy first. I promise I will bring Zhu Yan... no, I promise I will bring the Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei back with meter! See you allter!" Tang Li Xue shouted her farewell and turned around, then dashed back to the Garden City.
However, Silly Fox gnashed his teeth unwillingly when he saw Tang Li Xue''s lonely back, so he took a deep breath and shouted out loud for Tang Li Xue to hear!
"Tang Li Xue~! You should already know that I love you so much! So, if you dare not toe back alive! I swear I will ughter everyone in this city to avenge youter!"
"I will also kill that entire Gu Family, Zhu Yan, and Elder Yang!"
"So, don''t you dare to die! You have toe back alive no matter what?!"
"Do you hear me?!"
Tang Li Xue slowed down her step as she felt really moved by Silly Fox''s words.
"I have to admit you look quite manly today, Silly Fox~! It seems I have to consider making you one of my future concubinester, hehe..." Tang Li Xue chuckled as she hastened her step again.
Bingbing and Silly Fox instantly felt deted when they saw Tang Li Xue''s back getting further and further away from them.
"Let''s go, you two. There is no point for us in waiting here." Instructor Mei Lan said to Bingbing and Silly Fox.
"Will we really leave Little Xue alone here?" Bingbing asked Instructor Mei Lan in a frustrated tone.
"Of course... not~!" Instructor Mei Lan replied in a casual tone.
"Then where are we going right now?" The deted Silly Fox woke up again and asked in a curious tone.
"Asking for some powerful helpers." Instructor Mei Lan muttered as she led her two remaining students out of the secret passage.
.....
After some time, Tang Li Xue returned to the locked gate.
Tang Li Xue easily passed through the locked gate with her [Ethereal Form] since there was no formation carved on the locked gate.
Tang Li Xue rode on the secret elevator with the sleepy Little Loki in her embrace, and the secret elevator ascended back to the gambling house.
Tang Li Xue in her [Ethereal Form] and Little Loki in an invisible state walked out from the secret elevator behind the bookshelves and entered back to the young woman''s luxurious room.
The stunning young woman in the luxurious room was currently reading a book while smoking with a long pipe in her grasp.
Tang Li Xue nned to walk sneakily out of the room with her [Ethereal Form] without being discovered by this scary woman.
Unfortunately, her n fell apart as the stunning young woman asked in a leisurely tone without even looking away from the book in her grasp: "Why are youing back here again?"
Tang Li Xue''s body stiffened when she heard the stunning young woman''s question.
After hesitating for a while, Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form] and replied: "I still have unfinished business in this Garden City, so I n toplete it first."
The stunning young woman chuckled as she closed the book in her grasp and stared at Tang Li Xue intensely for a few moments as if to judge her worth.
Tang Li Xue felt really ufortable at the stunning young woman''s stare, but she forced herself to bear it.
Finally, the stunning young woman stated in an amused tone with a strange smile on her beautiful face: "You are truly an extremely interesting fox cub."
Then the stunning young woman threw something swiftly to Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue quickly raised her hand reflexively to catch it.
"What is this?" Tang Li Xue asked while staring at the strange talisman in her grasp.
"My investment in you..." The stunning young woman chuckled while replying.
"Investment?" Tang Li Xue murmured while frowning deeply.
"It can be said that I let you owe me a favor, so you can pay it back to me in the future. Do you get it?" The stunning young woman kindly exined to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue did not really understand the stunning young woman''s intention, but she still nodded at the stunning young woman and epted her kindness: "Thank you."
After thanking the stunning young woman, Tang Li Xue walked out of the luxurious room and went out of the gambling house unhindered.
Chapter 734 734: Overwhelming Possessiveness!
Chapter 734 Chapter 734: Overwhelming Possessiveness!
?At first Tang Li Xue did not want to owe any favors to that strange ''Mama Vixen'' after listening to Instructor Mei Lan''s warning.
But she changed her mind after she read the effect of the strange talisman written on another piece of paper attached to that talisman.
Surprisingly, the strange talisman was actually an advanced-level talisman, [Concealment Barrier Talisman].
Once this [Concealment Barrier Talisman] was used, it would create a transparent membrane that covered the user''s entire body.
The transparent membrane would make the talisman''s userpletely undetectable by the Nascent Soul Stage expert''s divine sense.
Even their [Mirror of Revtion] would not be able to prate this transparent membrane, and its golden light of revtion would lose its effect as long as the transparent membrane still protected the Talisman''s user.
Moreover, the effects of this [Concealment Barrier Talisman] couldst for one full day.
This [Concealment Barrier Talisman] was what Tang Li Xue most needed right at this moment.
The stunning young woman could clearly see through it, and she offered an investment that Tang Li Xue could not refuse at all.
Tang Li Xue sighed as she secretlymented that this Immortal World was truly full of wonderful people and creatures.
If she dared to lower her guard and look down on anyone as mere meaningless side characters, then she would definitely regret it soon enough.
Whether the guard captain with a terribly high IQ on par with Holm*s in the Foxes Hunting Festival or this stunning young woman called ''Mama Vixen'', both of them were the perfect examples of people who could not be underestimated at all.
Tang Li Xue could only warn herself sternly once again that she was not a protagonist even though she has an OP system, and she could be overturned anytime by people like them.
After going out of the gambling house, Tang Li Xue mixed with the crowd and headed out from the night market.
Then she sneaked into a dark alley and secretly used her [Twin Moons] divine ability to summon out her perfect copy.
The perfect copy patted Tang Li Xue''s shoulder while saying in an admiration tone: "Woah~! You are really much crazier than me~! You even dare to do something like this!"
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes as she pushed her perfect copy''s hand away from her shoulder and replied: "I have put my entire bet on you, so you better make sure toplete this mission for me."
But the perfect copy''s expression instantly turned gloomy as she murmured in a sad tone: "Sigh... But you should already know how Zhu Yan saw usst time... I really doubt she would want to see me again even if I go to look for her."
Tang Li Xue shook her head helplessly while muttering: "It is a normal reaction since we have deceived her and even taken her first kiss. But even if the possibility is small, we still have to try to persuade her to leave this Garden City before her identity as Sea Beast Princess gets exposed."
The perfect copy nodded in agreement: "Okay, let''s go~! Other than persuading her, I also have to apologize to my Yan''er too."
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy headed to the Gu Family''s mansion together.
They carefully mixed with the crowd on the street and every time they saw any Nascent Soul Stage experts patrolling with [Mirror of Revtion] in their grasp, they immediately took a detour.
.....
Meanwhile, Elder Yang''s situation in the Gu Family''s mansion was also not that good.
Currently, he was grounded in his room by the Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect under Rongrong''s request.
Rongrong testified that Elder Yang had been seduced by a fox demon since his mission in Tang Feng City and had been unable to extricate himself from the fox demon''s seduction until now.
In these few days, Elder Yang had thought a lot when he was grounded in his room, and he finally decided to tell all the truths to Rongrong.
Knock~! Knock~! Knock~!
Rongrong knocked on the door of Elder Yang''s room to deliver his dinner.
"Come in!" Elder Yang let Rongrong enter his room.
"Yangyang, I bring your dinner~! I make some of these dishes myself, so you should taste them, okay?!" Rongrong cheerfully said to Elder Yang as she put the tray filled with delicious-looking dishes onto the table.
"All right, I will taste them all. Rongrong, you should eat with me too." Elder Yang replied while smiling kindly at Rongrong.
Both of them ate delicious foods harmoniously together.
After they felt full, Elder Yang began to talk first: "Rongrong... I am really sorry."
Rongrong smiled even more brightly because she thought Elder Yang finally realized his mistake and apologized to her.
When Rongrong wanted tofort Elder Yang, Elder Yang continued to say with a guilty tone: "I have deceived you all this time. I have never had any feelings for you since the very beginning."
"I am actually the former patriarch of the Asura Demon Sect. But my uncle tried to take my ce by killing me."
"At that time, my Xiao Bai actually sacrificed herself to save me."
"I thought I had lost her forever, so I waspletely blinded by anger and resentment at that time."
"I deliberately approached you and nned to use the Immortal Sword Sect behind you in order to exact my revenge by killing my uncle and destroying the entire Asura Demon Sect."
"But who knew that My Xiao Bai was actually still alive, and I met her again at Tang Feng City."
Elder Yang stared at the dumbfounded Rongrong and admitted it tantly: "Yes, my Xiao Bai is actually that fox girl."
"I am really sorry Rongrong."
"But my feelings for my Xiao Bai have never changed."
"I have fallen in love so badly to her. I love her so much that my heart can no longer amodate another woman."
"Rongrong... I am really sorry... I cannot be your groom anymore. Because I can no longer deceive you and myself."
"I am sure there should be a great man out there who is much better than a jerk like me. A great man who is truly love you with all of his heart, just like how I love my Xiao Bai."
Elder Yang ended his speech as she kept staring apologeticly at Rongrong.
Tears poured out from Rongrong''s eyes as she muttered in disbelief and great grief: "No, no, no, no... Yangyang... You are lying to me, right?! You should be under that vixen''s seduction spell, right?!"
"Rongrong, I..." Elder Yang muttered to Rongrong, but Rongrong immediately screamed out loud to stop Elder Yang from saying anything hurtful again.
"SHUT UP~! I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR IT ANYMORE~!" Rongrong screamed as she shut her ears with her hands.
The Rongrong''s reaction became strange and deranged as she quickly held Elder Yang''s hand and said in a coaxing tone: "Yangyang, you want to exact your revenge, right? You want to kill your uncle and destroy the Asura Demon Sect, right? I will help you!"
"Let''s go home right now! I will beg my great-grandfather and my parents to destroy the Asura Demon Sect as soon as possible!"
"But after that, let''s just forget your past and start a new life with me from now on, okay?!"
"I... I swear I will make you the happiest man in this Lightwind Continent. I will be obedient and do everything you want me to do. I will also help you to be the next patriarch of the Immortal Sword Sect as soon as possible!"
"So, please..."
But Elder Yang waspletely unmoved as he removed Rongrong''s grasp on his hands while saying in a resolute tone: "I am sorry, Rongrong... From now on, Elder Yang or Yan Zhiyun is no longer exists. My name is Mo Zhiyun."
Rongrong gnashed her pearl-white teeth in anger as she screamed maniacally: "NO~! YOU ARE YANGYANG~! YOU ARE MY YANGYANG~! YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MY YANGYANG~!"
"I will never let you go~! You are mine, and you will always be mine~!"
Rongrong grabbed her hair and muttered in a resentful tone: "This is all that b*tch fault~!"
"If only she never appears in front of you anymore!"
"If only she really died back then! If only she vanish forever from this world!"
"You will still be my groom.. and we will marry soon, then be a happy husband and wife. We will also have a pair of babiester and live happily together ever after. Yes, this is all her fault!"
"I will kill her... I will definitely kill that vixen for snatching you from me~!"
"Then I will snatch you back from her, so we can marry and live happily ever after! Hehehehe..." Rongrong sneered creepily as she thought her happy end with her Yangyang.
Elder Yang frowned deeply when he heard Rongrong''s crazy words.
He immediately grabbed Rongrong''s hand and angrily scolded her in a chilling tone: "Rongrong, I am the one who wronged you so you can do anything to me, but if you dare to touch my Xiao Bai... I will never forgive you!"
Chapter 735 735: Between Love and Hate!
Chapter 735 Chapter 735: Between Love and Hate! ?
?When Rongrong heard Elder Yang''s words to defend Tang Li Xue, she red resentfully at Elder Yang.
But Rongrong closed her eyes and took a deep breath to calm down instead.
After a few moments, Rongrong opened her eyes again, and she became a lot calmer.
Rongrong gently smiled at Elder Yang as she grasped his hand tightly.
Elder Yang frowned deeply as he tried to remove Rongrong''s hands, but before he could do it, Rongrong said to him in a tone filled with infatuation and possessiveness: "Yangyang, how could you be so cruel and cold to me? But I do not care about that... Because I still love you so much... So so so much, that I can no longer live without you."
"So, if you dare leave me, I swear I will kill myself and put all the me on you and your fox girl. You and Your fox girl would surely be hunted by my Immortal Sword Sect."
"The bounty for capturing and killing you and her would spread to every corner of this Lightwind Continent, then all cultivators in Lightwind Continent would hunt you and her down."
"Do you hear me clearly, Yangyang? If you want that fox girl to live freely and happily like now, your only option is to keep staying with me!"
Rongrong spoke in a gentle tone as if she was trying to persuade Elder Yang, but the content of her words was clearly threatening him with Tang Li Xue instead!
"You~!" Elder Yang red angrily at Rongrong, but before he could say anything to scold Rongrong, she already released her grasp on Elder Yang''s hands.
Rongrong took several steps away from Elder Yang with a heart-wrenching sad smile on her beautiful face.
"Yangyang, I will leave for now. I hope you will think about it really carefully." Rongrong muttered as she stepped out of Elder Yang''s room.
But when Rongrong almost closed the door of Elder Yang''s room, Elder Yang''s voice suddenly resounded from inside the room: "Rongrong, you also have to think about it carefully. Is this really what you want?"
"I clearly do not have any feelings for you. Forcing me to stay with you will only hurt both of us. With your beauty, cultivation talent, and nice personality, I am very sure you have many other suitors who truly love you." Elder Yang still tried to persuade Rongrong.
"Pffffft~! Hahahahaha... Yangyang, you are so silly." Rongrongughed mockingly at Elder Yang''s words instead before replying: "If I told you to forget that fox girl and choose the other girl who truly loves you, can you really do it just like that?"
Elder Yang: "....."
This time, Elder Yang fell silent and did not know how to answer Rongrong''s question.
"See? Even you cannot do that too, right?" Rongrong murmured in a disappointed tone as she closed the door of Elder Yang''s room and returned to her room.
It was clear that tonight might be the sleepless night for both of them.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy had finally reached the Gu Family''s mansion.
"Damn, there are so many guards patrolling around right now!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined in a displeased tone.
Tang Li Xue sighed as she said: "It can''t be helped... Since most of their Nascent Soul Stage elders are currently patrolling around the Garden City, the protection of the Gu Family''s mansion can only be left to these people."
But it did not mean the defense of the Gu Family''s mansion was lessened by recing most of those Nascent Soul Stage elders to these guards with lower cultivation levels.
On the contrary, the defense of the Gu Family''s mansion got much stronger than usual since they currently activated all of the formations, such as trapping formations, illusion formations, killing formations, and so on, topletely protect the Gu Family''s mansion from another disguising beast infiltration.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy hid themselves on the top of a tree near the Gu Family''s mansion.
When a group of patrolling guards was passing under the tree, both of them suddenly jumped down from the tree!
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Rapid Quick shes!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy simultaneously swung the palms of their hands rapidly as if they were waving a pair of swords toward those unprepared patrolling guards!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
That group of patrolling guards fell unconscious before they could even react.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy hastily pulled them to behind the bush and stripped their armor and uniform.
Then Tang Li Xue quickly helped her perfect copy wear that set of guard uniform and armor.
"Urgh... Their armor is so stinky! Just how long have they not washed it?! Do I really have to wear it?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy groaned in disgust.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "You have to wear them if you want to get into the Gu Family''s Mansion without being suspected! Just bear it for a while, okay?!"
Tang Li Xue also helped her perfect copy to put on a skin mask, skin color changing lotion, male perfume, and so on.
Her current disguise was identical to her previous disguise as a servant, but she put on the set of guard uniform and armor right now.
After that, Tang Li Xue grabbed Little Loki who was currently sleeping on the top of her head but covered below her hood.
Tang Li Xue caressed Little Loki''s furry body to wake it up while whispering to it: "I am counting on you, Little Loki~!"
"Nyaaaooww Meooww~!" (Leave it to me~!)
Little Loki jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s embrace and ran toward the Gu Family''s mansion.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy who had already disguised as a guard hastily followed Little Loki from behind.
There was an advanced protection formation that covered the entire Gu Family''s mansion.
Normally, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy would not be able to sneak into the Gu Family''s mansion because of this advanced protection formation, but it would be a different story with Little Loki there.
Little Loki opened its tiny mouth widely...
[Heaven''s Devour]~!
The entire space in front of it and the advanced protection formation trembled violently as they sucked into Little Loki''s mouth, leaving a gaping hole right in front of it.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gave a thumb up to Little Loki and praised it in an excited tone: "Good job, Little Loki~! Let''s go in!"
Little Loki puffed out its chest and put on a cute smug expression before it swiftly jumped past the wall and rushed deeper into the Gu Family''s mansion with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
The real Tang Li Xue pulled the hood to cover her fluffy silver fox ears on the top of her head while muttering: "Good luck to you two. I can only hope Zhu Yan can understand our good intentions and obediently follow you out of this dangerous cityter."
Then Tang Li Xue walked further from the Gu Family''s mansion and mixed with the crowds of people in the street.
.....
At this time, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Little Loki were blocked by another formation, and it was a dangerous killing formation right now!
Hundreds of flying swords encircled them and pointed their sharp edge toward them from all directions!
"Holy cow... This is not looking good at all!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed as she deployed her [Reflective Barrier] and the transparent barrier created from [Energy Maniption] to block the attack from those hundreds of flying swords!
But Little Loki did not even look at them seriously at all...
On the contrary, Little Loki''s eyes shone with excitement when it saw them while licking its lips greedily as if it were staring at a mountain of rare delicacies.
BWOOOOSSHH~!
Hundreds of flying swords flew swiftly toward the two of them at once!
While Little Loki did not have any intention to avoid them at all and opened its mouth widely instead!
[Heaven''s Devour]~!
Many of those flying swords were sucked into Little Loki''s mouth before they could even touch any of its furs while some of them were attacking Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but they were blocked by her [Reflective Barrier] and the transparent barrier.
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
After a few breaths, there were no more flying swords in the perfect copy''s vision since Little Loki had swallowed all of them.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still dumbfounded, Little Loki licked its lips in excitement as it impatiently dashed again deeper into the Gu Family''s mansion.
"Hey, Little Loki~! You are heading the wrong way~! It is not that way!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shouted to warn Little Loki while hastily chasing after it.
Both Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Little Loki met with many other formations on their way to Zhu Yan''s courtyard, but Little Loki easily used its [Heaven''s Devour] to forcefully crack them all.
Their journey might look smooth for now, but their crude way of cracking those formations was bound to be discovered by the guards or Nascent Soul Stage elders really soon.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy did not have any other choice than to use this way since they clearly could not decipher and break those formations one by one since they clearly had not be the formation master yet.
Chapter 736 736: Everything is a Lie!
Chapter 736 Chapter 736: Everything is a Lie!
?When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Little Loki almost reached Zhu Yan''s courtyard, Little Loki actually still looked in the direction where it had mistakenly run before from time to time.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned deeply in worry, and she decided to ask Little Loki: "What is wrong, Little Loki? Is there something dangerous for using from that direction?"
Little Loki turned around gracefully and replied to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "Nyaw Meow Mew Nyaow~!" (I smell a lot of delicious things from that direction ~!)
Delicious things for Little Loki were undoubtedly precious treasures!
The eyes of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy were shining in excitement as if a mountain of spirit stones was waving at her and calling her toe in that direction when she heard it.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily shook her head to clear her mind from any greedy thought as she muttered: "No, my top priority right now is to convince Zhu Yan and bring her out of this ce as soon as possible! I clearly cannot put Zhu Yan''s life in danger just for my selfish desire!"
Little Loki became more anxious when it heard Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rejected its temptation, so it added a few more words: "Meow Mew Miaw Nyeow~!" (But I smell treasures containing star energy from there!)
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her eyes in shock and disbelief as she eximed in an excited tone: "Treasures containing star energy?! Really?!"
Tang Li Xue or her perfect copy might be able to resist the temptation of spirit stones, but the treasures containing star energy were apletely different matter.
Because Tang Li Xue had already fulfilled all of the requirements to evolve into [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox], except for one, which was consuming precious treasures that contained star energies until the star energies stored in her body reached more than 999!
If she could obtain enough precious treasures containing star energy here, then she would be able to evolve into [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox] anytime anywhere she wants!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her pearl-white teeth in dilemma, but before she could decide it...
The real Tang Li Xue had already activated the [Swap] skill to exchange her location with her perfect copy.
After that, the real Tang Li Xue un-summoned her perfect copy, then used her [Twin Moons] divine ability again to re-summon her perfect copy right in front of her, so both of them were currently inside Gu Family''s Mansion right now.
"Isn''t it too dangerous for us to do it so tantly like this?!" The perfect copy asked with a worried tone.
The perfect copy''s worry was not groundless since the risk of them getting caught was really high like this!
Moreover, they might not be able to escape as easily as before since both of them were currently inside the Gu Family''s Mansion right now.
The real Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied in a serious tone: "The risk might be high, but it would bepletely worth it if we can get our hands on the precious treasures containing star energy."
It was already toote for them to regret since both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were already here, so the perfect copy could only agree with the real Tang Li Xue''s decision.
Tang Li Xue immediately activated her [Ethereal From], and her slender body turned invisible, then she followed her perfect copy and Little Loki closely from behind.
After Tang Li Xue and Little Loki escorted the perfect copy into Zhu Yang''s courtyard, both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki hastily headed to the direction where the Gu Family stored their precious treasure.
Of course, there were many kinds of other formations blocking their way, but Little Loki easily broke through all of them using its [Heaven''s Devour].
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not immediately enter Zhu Yan''s room but waited patiently until the real Tang Li Xue and Little Loki ran further from there.
At least, they would not get discovered and caught at the same time if the distance between them were far away.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took a deep breath to prepare herself as she knocked on the door of Zhu Yan''s room.
But Zhu Yan did not immediately open the door of her room. Maybe because she was already sleeping since it was midnight right now.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not give up and kept knocking on the door of Zhu Yan''s room again and again while waiting patiently.
Even though she could just use her [Ethereal Form] to easily sneak into Zhu Yan''s room, but she decided not to do it.
Well, not only it would be impolite, but Zhu Yan might be angrier at her if she did it that way. Zhu Yan might even think Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to secretly kidnap her instead, and her impression of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy might deteriorate even further.
ck~!
After waiting for a few more minutes, Zhu Yan finally opened the door of her room while muttering: "Whoes sote at night?"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily replied in a joyous tone: "It''s me, Yan''er~!"
Zhu Yan''s eyes turned red when she looked at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy who was dressed as a guard.
When Zhu Yan saw Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy that was currently putting on the disguise of the previous male servant, Zhu Yan realized many things almost immediately.
After Zhu Yan found out that her brother Feng Bai was actually a fox, she still tried to convince herself that she and her brother Feng Bai were truly in love with each other.
But that hopeful thinking was truly shattered right now..
This fox clearly disguised as a servant or Brother Feng Bai to approach and deceive her, just so she would separate from Gu Shengxin!
As for the reason why Zhu Yan could deduce it...
Previously, the Fox n had already forcefully kidnapped her and brought her back home to the Sea Beast Kingdom, but she sneaked out again to be with Gu Shengxin.
So, the Fox n should have changed their strategy this time and sent this charming fox to seduce and deceive her instead, so she would break off with Gu Shengxin.
It was not that hard for Zhu Yan to guess it since Zhu Yan had already heard a lot about the Fox n from her family, especially about how the Fox n would do anything toplete their mission and obtain their reward.
"Hahaha... I am really so stupid for trying to believe you again and again." Zhu Yanughed with an ironic tone while tears poured out of her eyes.
Zhu Yan felt her heart so hurt as if it was gouged out by a knife.
As a pampered Sea Beast Princess, no one dared to hurt or deceive her before, so this was her first experience feeling a terrible heartache like this.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly entered Zhu Yan''s room and closed the door as she tried her hardest to exin it: "I am really sorry for deceiving you, Yan''er... But I do it because I care about you! I do not want you to be with that jerk Gu Shengxin!"
Zhu Yan wiped her tears with her sleeve and red at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, then muttered in a cold and resentful tone: "Why? Just because you want the reward given by my father?! Brother Feng, you are so cruel. How could you y with my feelings just because of that?!"
The heart of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instantly felt as if it was stabbed mercilessly by guilt.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her pearl-white teeth as she tried to convince Zhu Yan again: "Yan''er, I know how much you are disappointed and angry with me. But I dare to swear that I do it for your own good!"
"That Gu Shengxin is not a good person. He already did a lot of evil deeds. Moreover, he just lost his mother and little sister because of the Beast Tide. If he knows that you are not a human, he will surely make you suffer a terrible death!"
"So, please, Yan''er... You can hit or torture me to appease your anger and disappointmentter, but you have to follow me out of this city as soon as possible before your true identity is exposed to that Gu Shengxin." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy pleaded to Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan stared dully at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and murmured: "Brother Feng, how many times you have lied to me? I bet no truthe out of your mouth until now, right? Not only your background but even your name and gender should be fake. With so many lies, how could I believe in any of your words again?!"
Zhu Yan took out something from her space pouch.
It turned out to be a blue flower emitting mysterious light.
"Do you know what is this, Brother Feng?" Zhu Yan asked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but before Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could answer, Zhu Yan had already exined it.
"This flower is called Reminisce Flower. Not only it can improve one''s memory after consuming it, but it can also record the scene around it and store it for a few days." Zhu Yan said as she tapped the flower petal.
Then the scene where Zhu Yan kissed several times with Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in the herb garden that night was ying like a movie recorder.
It was shown clearly that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy actually condensed a mouth mask to avoid direct kisses with Zhu Yan!
Chapter 737 737: Critical Situation!
Chapter 737 Chapter 737: Critical Situation!
?Zhu Yan sneered ironically with bloodshot tearful eyes while saying: "Even my most memorable first kiss is only a fake! Everything about us is a lie!"
This time, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only fall silent in guilt, and she could no longer exin everything to Zhu Yan anymore.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still thinking about what she must say to convince Zhu Yan, Zhu Yan informed Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy about her decision: "To be honest, Brother Sheng had already proposed to me yesterday, but I was still hesitating so I asked for some time to think."
"I did not immediately ept or reject his proposal because even though I felt really disappointed in you, I still held some hope for you..."
"I always try to think positive about what you are doing to me, and convince myself that you have a good reason to do it..."
"Unfortunately, you have really disappointed me, Brother Feng. So, I have decided to ept Brother Sheng''s proposal and marry him soon!" Zhu Yan said as she red at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a pair of eyes filled with anger and resentment.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her eyes in shock and disbelief as she eximed: "No~! Yan''er, you should not do it! That Gu Shengxin is not a good person! If you marry him, you will definitely suffer sooner orter!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took a deep breath to calm down as she tried to convince Zhu Yan with her words again: "Yan''er, I know you are extremely disappointed in me because I have been lying too much to you, but you cannot ruin your own future just because of your disappointment in me!"
However, it was already far toote, and the stubborn Zhu Yan clearly would not hear the perfect copy''s persuasion just like that.
Zhu Yan shook her head and muttered in a resolute tone: "I have already decided it, Brother Feng. You do not need to try to persuade me anymore. You should just go out from here right now before I call the guards to catch you."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her pearl-white teeth as her heart was filled with unwillingness.
She began to think if she had to forcefully kidnap Zhu Yan and bring her out of this Garden City right now, so Zhu Yan would not be able to marry that jerk Gu Shengxin.
''All right, I would rather choose her to hate me more than let her marry that jerk Gu Shengxin! Let''s just bring her out of this Garden City first and think about how to apologize to herter!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought as she decided in her heart.
"Yan''er, go to sleep right now." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy activated her [Mystic Whisper] and used it on Zhu Yan without giving any time for her to react!
Zhu Yan suddenly felt very sleepy, but before she could fall asleep, the green ne on her neck suddenly let a blinding green light!
The blinding green light from the green ne instantly dispelled the perfect copy''s [Mystic Whisper] effect and Zhu Yan''s unbearable sleepiness was cleared!
Zhu Yan hastily took this chance to take out amunication talisman from her space pouch and used it to contact Gu Shengxin to ask for his help!
"Brother Sheng, help me..." Zhu Yan muttered to hermunication talisman, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used her extremely high speed to take away themunication talisman from Zhu Yan and destroy it in one grasp.
"Yan''er, I am really sorry, but I have to do this." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy apologized to Zhu Yan with a tone filled with guilt, but she still decided tounch another attack on Zhu Yan in order to subdue her.
[Spirit Shock]~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy unleashed her [Spirit Shock] to forcefully knock out Zhu Yan.
But Zhu Yan had prepared herself this time as she took a purple bell out from her space pouch.
CLANG~!
The purple bell actually managed to block the perfect copy''s [Spirit Shock], but the purple bell was instantly filled with cracks.
It seems the purple bell could only withstand one more [Spirit Shock] attack from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had run out of time...
Several divine senses from Nascent Soul Stage elders had scanned Zhu Yan''s courtyard, and they immediately found Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
That jerk Gu Shengxin should have called these Nascent Soul Stage elders with hismunication talisman and asked them to check Zhu Yan''s ce after he received Zhu Yan''s call just now.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in disappointment as she had lost her only chance to secretly kidnap Zhu Yan and bring her out of there.
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders flew very swiftly toward Zhu Yan''s courtyard at the same time, and they arrived in the blink of an eye!
As the terrifying pressure from the several Nascent Soul Stage elders locked and pressed on her body like a giant mountain, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy became very anxious.
''Err... Hello, my true self~?! You should have already known about my current dire situation, right?! Can you please un-
summon me right now?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy urged her true self since their mind was connected with each other.
The real Tang Li Xue immediately replied: ''Of course, I know about your situation, but can you try to buy some time for me and Little Loki? If I un-summon you right now, those annoying Nascent Soul Stage elders will surely check this entire Gu Family''s mansion to try to find you!''
''At that time, even I and Little Loki might be found out by them, then our situation would be much worse than now!'' Tang Li Xue exined to her perfect copy.
''You damned clone abuser~! Why do you always push me to do near-impossible dangerous tasks?!'' The perfect copy gnashed her pearl-white teeth in frustration.
''I am really sorry~! But you do not need to worry, your sacrifice will surely be rewarded if we can get our hands on those precious treasures containing star energies.'' Tang Li Xue yfully said to her perfect copy.
The real Tang Li Xue and Little Loki had actually reached the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse just a few moments ago, but they could not do anything since there was one Gu Family''s Nascent Soul Stage elder guarding here.
But that guarding Gu Family''s Nascent Soul Stage elder actually left Gu Family''s treasure warehouse after he received a call from Gu Shengxin and headed to Zhu Yan''s courtyard.
If Tang Li Xue hastily un-summoned her perfect copy, that Gu Family''s Nascent Soul Stage elder would surelye back here really soon to guard the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse again.
Of course, Tang Li Xue and Little Loki would not let it happen since they needed some time to loot this Gu Family''s treasure warehouse!
Little Loki was moving the fastest, and it had already begun to break the protective formations that protected the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse one by one rapidly right after the Gu Family''s Nascent Soul Stage elder left!
The real Tang Li Xue suddenly canceled her [Ethereal Form] while charging swiftly to more than thirty guards who were guarding the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse!
[Moonlight sh] plus [Sharp Edge Power] buff~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
More than a dozen guards with the strength of early Foundation Establishment Stage were beheaded by the real Tang Li Xue in the blink of an eye!
Then Tang Li Xue released Yaya from her System''s pet space while saying in an urgent tone: "Yaya, help me finish them quickly before they can call for help!"
The sleeping Yaya instantly woke up full of energy after she received Tang Li Xue''smand: Yaaya Ya Yaa~!" (Leave it to me~!)
When the other guards tried to unsheathe their weapons or took out theirmunication talisman to call for reinforcement, Tang Li Xue activated her [Mystic Whisper] and said to them: "Do not move!"
[Compressed Wind des] x15~!
[Spirit Shock]~!
Tang Li Xue knocked them daze with her [Spirit Shock], while Yaya was harvesting their lives with her [Compressed Wind des]!
It only took a few breaths for both of them to y all of the guards without giving them any chance to fight back or call for help.
Tang Li Xue asked Yaya to guard outside and immediately told them if she sensed something was not right.
With her [Wind God''s Eyes] and [Wind God''s Endowment], Yaya was actually the most suitable for that job, and she could also tell Tang Li Xue through their mind connection if that Nascent Soul Stage elder came back.
The real Tang Li Xue quickly followed Little Loki closely from behind as Little Loki broke all of the protective formations with its [Heaven''s Devour].
Even the solid wall of the treasure warehouse which was made from solid metal could not withstand Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour], and Little Loki easily created a huge hole in the wall.
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki excitedly jumped through the huge hole and entered the treasure warehouse together.
The space inside the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse was so spacious, and it was separated into more than a dozen different rooms.
"Little Loki, bring me to the ce where they store the precious treasures containing star energies first! We check the other treasurester." Tang Li Xue said to Little Loki in a solemn tone.
There should be hundreds of different kinds of precious treasures stored inside here, and it would take a lot of time if they wanted to loot all of them.
Rather than wasting their time like that, it would be much better if they just looted the most precious treasures instead!
Of course, the precious treasures containing star energies should still be their first priority!
Little Loki nodded its tiny furry head to show that it understood, then it dashed deeper into the treasure warehouse, while Tang Li Xue quickly followed Little Loki from behind.
Chapter 738 738: Domain Prototype!
Chapter 738 Chapter 738: Domain Prototype!
?.....
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy really wanted to curse her true self so badly right now.
How the heck could her real self tell her to stall for some time against these several powerful Nascent Soul Stage elders?!
Did her real self really think she has enough strength to do that?!
Unfortunately, it was not the time for her toin about it since she knew that her real self had already entered the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse and began to look for the precious treasures containing star energies, so she had to find a way to stall for as long as possible!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nned to have some conversations with those several Nascent Soul Stage elders, but those old monsters clearly did not want to talk to her at all.
When several Nascent Soul Stage elders broke into Zhu Yan''s room, they immediately took out their [Mirror of Revtion] from their spatial treasures.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not want the light of their [Mirror of Revtion] to identally hit Zhu Yan and forcefully transform Zhu Yan back into Sea Beast Princess, so she immediately rushed out of Zhu Yan''s room.
Even though it would definitely ruin the rtionship between Zhu Yan and Gu Shengxin, making it impossible for them to get married if Zhu Yan''s identity as Sea Beast Princess was blown off here, but it would also put Zhu Yan''s life in danger!
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders tried to stop Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from escaping, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately canceled her human transfiguration and transformed back to her true fox form.
In that instant, the overall stats and strength of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy were restored to 100%!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was clearly not foolish enough to face those several Nascent Soul Stage elders in her human transfiguration form since she would only have a third of her overall stats and strength in her human form!
[Wind Burst Step]~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was shuttling extremely swiftly using her [Wind Burst Step] repeatedly as she kept setting the destination point further and further away from Zhu Yan''s courtyard!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt as if she was riding a rocket right now as the scenery around her turned blurry.
Even those Nascent Soul Stage elders have a hard time chasing after her when she uses [Wind Burst Step] repeatedly like this.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not have any ability to dodge when she was using [Wind Burst Step], so she literally just bulldozed everything in front of her!
BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy crushed everything blocking her way when she bumped into them whether they were buildings, trees, bridges, decorative boulders, or small hills!
"Ouch~! Ouch~! Ouch~! It hurts, damn it~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hissed in pain.
Fortunately, [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s effect to nullify any damage under 1000 points worked wonders at this moment, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waspletely uninjured by the collision.
However, her current violent method clearly would notst long as she identally stepped into a killing formation!
Her surrounding scene suddenly changed as she appeared in the middle of a sea of crimson me!
This time, she would not be able to get out of this killing formation as easily as before since Little Loki was not with her right now!
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not panic while she hastily activated the new power she mastered just recently!
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Moon Form~!
A silvery light shone from behind her as a faint image of the moon emerged!
Crack~! Crack~! Crack~!
In that instant, the surrounding sea of crimson me was frozen and transformed into a sea of ice!
"Tsk, tsk tsk... Reversing the Profound Law of heat into cold... The power of this [Moon Form] of [Sun and Moon Domain] is not bad at all~! Even I started to fear my own talent for being able to create it." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered in amazement.
The me-elemental killing formation crumbled apart as Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy froze the entire formation in a few breaths of time.
But the several Nascent Soul Stage elders had alreadypletely surrounded Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy at this time, and there was no more gap for her to run away like before.
When those several Nascent Soul Stage elders tried to take something out from their spatial ring, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tried to strike up a conversation with them: "Err, you guys... Cough, hello everyone! Can I have a few minutes to talk first? I think we have a huge misunderstanding here... I have a very close rtionship with your young patriarch~! We even..."
Unfortunately, these several old Nascent Soul Stage elders already have a lot of experience fighting against so many enemies, so they clearly would not talk nicely to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and give her enough time to think of any n.
Those several Nascent Soul Stage elders took out restraining treasures from their spatial ring such as binding rope, small pagoda, golden cage, and so on.
They surely had already received the instruction from Rongrong to not kill Tang Li Xue and only caught her instead.
It seemed that Rongrong still stuck to her previous n to threaten Elder Yang to be with her by using Tang Li Xue''s life.
Even Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could easily guess that much since there was no other reason for these Nascent Soul Stage elders to only catch a fox beast like her alive, especially after the tragic battle against the Beast Tide, and they hated all beasts so much at this point.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy secretly sighed in relief when she saw it...
As long as they did not n to go all out to kill her, it meant she would still have some chance to stall more time for her true self to loot the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse.
Those several Nascent Soul Stage elders urged their spirit treasures to suppress and capture Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but she definitely would not let them do it that easily!
"All right then, let''s see how strong Nascent Soul Stage experts truly are~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered in a provocative tone as she used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to avoid getting captured by their spirit treasures!
.....
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue had reached the deepest part of the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse.
There were many more advanced andplicated formations installed here.
Even Little Loki had some difficulty breaking them since it would trigger the rm if it was not careful enough or even the precious treasures inside would be identally destroyed.
The real Tang Li Xue was starting to run out of patience, but there was nothing she could do to help Little Loki break those formations.
All she could do was pray for her perfect copy to hold on longer against those several Nascent Soul Stage elders and buy them enough time to at least get the precious treasures containing star energies.
"Nyaaaaoo~!" (it''s finally done~!)
After a few minutes or so, Little Loki excitedly informed Tang Li Xue.
"Really~?! Great job, Little Loki!" Tang Li Xue also excitedly said to Little Loki. Sheughed happily while embracing Little Loki and caressing its furry tiny head gently.
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki in her embrace with her and jumped through the hole in the formations into the small hidden room.
There were only a few ck boxes neatly arranged in this small hidden room, but there was no doubt that the treasures stored here might be the most precious ones in the Gu Family''s collection.
These ck boxes were made from mysterious materials. Their hardness might surpass many spirit treasures, and even several mysterious formations were carved on their surface to act as the lock.
Tang Li Xue tried to touch one of the ck boxes, but her hands were electrocuted by the mysterious formations instead.
She immediately withdrew her hands and decided to just throw all the ck boxes into her space pouch without checking or opening them.
Anyway, Little Loki had already told her that the precious treasures containing star energies were stored inside some of these ck boxes.
So, Tang Li Xue thought she just needed to take all of the ck boxes with her and open themter after she brought them out from the Gu Family''s mansion.
Tang Li Xue checked her perfect copy''s situation with their [Shared Senses] and realized that they might still have a little more time so she immediately instructed Little Loki: "Let''s go, Little Loki~!"
([Shared Senses]: Any information the perfect copy received from all of her senses will directly be transferred into the user''s mind.)
"You can sense which room has more precious treasures, right? We will loot it from the most precious storage room to the least precious storage room, okay?!" Tang Li Xue tried to tell Little Loki.
"Myaaaooww~! Nyaw Meo..." ( I understand~! Leave it to me...)
Little Loki jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s warm and soft embrace, then began to lead her to the next hidden storage room.
It could be said that the Gu Family who designed this treasure warehouse was really smart.
They stored their more precious treasures in the more hidden ces.
If Tang Li Xue did not have Little Loki to lead her to find these hidden ces, she certainly could only loot the least precious treasures stored in the biggest eye-catching rooms.
Chapter 739 739: Time Up!
Chapter 739 Chapter 739: Time Up!
?.....
While the real Tang Li Xue and Little Loki took their time to loot the precious treasures in the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse, the situation of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was getting worse and worse.
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect and the Gu Familypletely surrounded Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from all directions!
Fortunately, they only nned to catch Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy alive, so they did not unleash any deadly attacks or spells on her.
If not for that, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy might not evenst for a few breaths even with the 3 times deadly blow protections from her [Sun And Moon Aegis].
A small palm-sized golden pagoda flew toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and suddenly erged right above her head!
Before the erged golden pagoda could confine her, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily used [Wind Burst Step], and her silver furry figure moved at extremely high speed many times beyond her maximum speed toward the destination point she had set.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy reached the destination point and stopped, a ck binding rope had already appeared so close to her!
Before that ck binding rope could tie her up, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately retaliated with all of her strength!
[Sun Dragon ws] plus [Sharp Edge Power]~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instantly condensed a pair of dragon ws and enhanced their lethality with [Sharp Edge Power] buff!
Normally, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could not use [Sun Dragon ws] since she did not have [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline in her body like her real self, but she cleverly condensed it using her Profound Law of Heat right now!
A pair of [Sun Dragon ws] shed toward the ck binding rope with the intention of tearing it apart, but the ck binding rope was actually much more powerful and resilient than Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had thought.
On the contrary, the ck binding rope coiled on the pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and bound them like a handcuff instead.
It was clear at a nce that the might of her current [Sun Dragon ws] was actually weaker right now without any power boost from the me of Pride and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline.
"This damn ck rope is so annoying~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her teeth in anger.
But before Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could take a breath, a golden cage and small pagoda flew swiftly toward her again.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took this chance to set another destination point before activating her [Wind Burst Step] to avoid getting caught by the golden cage and small pagoda, but she suddenly crashed into a transparent barrier this time!
BAAANG~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was thrown off dozens of meters after she bumped into the transparent barrier!
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy spun in mid-air and still managed tond gracefully on the ground.
When she spun in mid-air before, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy secretly observed her surroundings and found out that there were already several formation gs stuck on the ground around her.
It seemed like they took the opportunity when she ran around to avoid those confinement-type spirit treasures and set an imprisonment formation to trap her instead.
The expression of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy became more and more solemn as time passed, then she secretly sent another warning to her real self: ''I cannot hold on for long inside this imprisonment formation, so you better finish what you are doing quickly and get out from there while you still can!''
Unfortunately, the real Tang Li Xue was currently too busy looting the most precious treasures stored in the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse, so she did not even have time to reply to her perfect copy.
"This damn greedy vixen~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy groaned as she gnashed her fangs in frustration.
The ck binding rope, small pagoda, golden cage, and ice coffin approached and besieged Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from all sides!
Just when those confinement-type spirit treasures almost reached Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, her topaz blue eyes were shining with golden light.
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
A brilliant golden light shone from behind her as a faint image of the sun emerged!
The extremely high temperature made those confinement-type spirit treasures unable to approach Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy anymore!
[Sun Dragon ws] plus [Sun Dragon Fangs]~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy condensed a pair of dragon ws and a dragon head. Their color was not deep blue like her me of Pride but golden like sun me!
Under the power of her domain prototype, the might of her variant version of [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] was increased several times!
ROOOAAAAAARRRR~!
The sun dragon''s head roared toward the sky, and it rushed fearlessly toward those several confinement-type spirit treasures!
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
Surprisingly, [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] actually managed to suppress the several confinement-type spirit treasures!
The ck binding rope, small pagoda, golden cage, and ice coffin were tossed around by the [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] until they crashed into the imprisonment formation!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy nodded her head in satisfaction when she saw the power of her [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs].
Unfortunately, her joy did notst long since the several Nascent Soul Stage elders took back their confinement-type spirit treasures and controlled the imprisonment formation to shrink instead!
"You damn old cheaters~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shouted in anger.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tried to control her [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs], then urged them to stop the imprisonment formation from shrinking even further.
However, it was only a futile effort since this imprisonment formation was under the control of several Nascent Soul Stage elders.
How could her current meager strength match those several Nascent Soul Stage elders who worked together to suppress and seal her?!
When the imprisonment formation had shrunk to the size that Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could no longer move around freely.
One of the Nascent Soul Stage elders took a jade bottle from his spatial ring.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy who was imprisoned inside the formation along with the imprisonment formation was actually sucked into the jade bottle!
.....
The expression of the real Tang Li Xue suddenly changed as sheined with a solemn expression: "Damn it! What a big embarrassment as my perfect copy! You cannot even stall for more couple of minutes!"
"Our time is up, Little Loki! Let''s get out of here now!" Tang Li Xue urged Little Loki.
Little Loki who was still busily trying to break otherplicated formations with its [Heaven''s Devour] reluctantly stopped what it was doing.
But Little Loki still felt very unwilling to leave this heavenly ce just like this...
The Gu Family as a thousand-year-old alchemist family was surely very rich.
Tang Li Xue and Little Loki did not even manage to loot 1/50 of the total treasures stored in this warehouse right now.
Of course, some of the precious materials, herbs, or treasures stored in this ce might not be their own, but belong to Alchemist Sect. However, the number of these treasures was still very shocking.
"Little Loki?" Tang Li Xue urged Little Loki once again.
Who knew that Little Loki suddenly rebelled at this point and said: "Nyaaoo meow~!" (You leave first~!)
Tang Li Xue''s expression changed as she scolded Little Loki: "What are you saying, Little Loki?! How could I leave you here alone?!"
But Little Loki still persistently shook its head...
"Mew Meow Nyeo, Nyew Meaw..." (I have [Instant Teleportation] and [Heaven''s Devour], I can get out from here whenever I want...)
Tang Li Xue still hesitated for a while, but she also realized that she could not feed Little Loki properly all this time since she was still a poor penniless fox.
How could she also restrain Little Loki''s chance to eat until it was full here?!
In the end, she gnashed her pearl white teeth and said to Little Loki: "Okay, but you have to be really careful! Hide yourself first if those Nascent Soul Stage elderse here to checkter, do you get it?!"
"Nya Nya~!" ( I kno~!)
Little Loki replied as it patted its furry chest with its tiny paw.
Tang Li Xue no longer wasted her time as she executed [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to quickly get out of the treasure warehouse.
Yaya who was guarding outside the treasure warehouse happily flew to greet Tang Li Xue, but she apologized to Yaya instead before putting her back into her System''s pet space: "I am really sorry, Yaya. But you have to stay in the space first until we get out of this ce safely."
But at this time, Tang Li Xue suddenly sensed an iing danger with her [Extrasensory Perception], so she hastily took out the [Concealment Barrier Talisman] from her space pouch and used it on herself before activating her [Ethereal Form]!
One secondter, two Nascent Soul Stage Elders suddenly appeared in front of the treasure warehouse.
When they saw the blood and corpses of the guards scattered around the treasure warehouse, they immediately realized that someone actually tried to rob their treasure warehouse just now!
''Little Loki, they have alreadye! Quickly hide yourself first right now!'' Tang Li Xue warned Little Loki through their mind connection.
Those Nascent Soul Stage Elders scanned the entire treasure warehouse with their divine senses, but they failed to find anyone since Little Loki had already hidden itself.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue with her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] plus the effect of [Concealment Barrier Talisman] was basically invisible andpletely undetectable!
Because [Concealment Barrier Talisman] made her could not be detected even by the divine sense from Nascent Soul Stage experts!
But Tang Li Xue did not dare to gamble if these Nascent Soul Stage elders still have another way to detect her like those guards in the Foxes Hunting Festival who used thepass-
like treasure to track her.
Thus she took the chance when those two Nascent Soul Stage elders checked what was missing in the treasure warehouse to run away further from this ce!
Chapter 740 740: Only Way Out!
Chapter 740 Chapter 740: Only Way Out!
?Unfortunately, before Tang Li Xue could run away too far from the treasure warehouse, she was identally trapped in another formation!
Her surrounding scenery changed into a lush forest.
The lush forest seemed to sense Tang Li Xue''s presence. Their vines and branches suddenly extended swiftly toward Tang Li Xue who was still in her [Ethereal Form]!
"Damn it~! Just how many annoying formations are there?!" Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
A brilliant golden light shone as a faint image of the sun formed behind her!
BWOOOOSH~!
The entire lush forest was instantly lit in golden me, and they burned into ashes in only a few breaths of time.
The formation broke apart after the entire lush forest burned into ashes.
But the movement was quite big, so it immediately attracted the attention of many people, especially right after the news about the treasure warehouse ransacking had been spread just now.
Tang Li Xue quickly realized that she was truly in a big problem right now.
Without Little Loki''s help, she would not be able to break through all of the formations that blocking her way as easily as before when she entered the Gu Family''s mansion.
But even if Little Loki was with her, they still could not sneak out from the Gu Family''s mansion as easily as before because all the guards and Nascent Soul Stage elders who were patrolling outside began to return to this Gu Family''s mansion.
In Tang Li Xue''s mind, this Gu Family''s mansion had suddenly turned into a giant cage for her while she was no different than a powerless canary right now!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth as she un-summoned her perfect copy.
At this time, the Nascent Soul Stage elder who had the jade bottle with the sealed Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy inside it realized something was missing.
He immediately checked his jade bottle treasure and found out that the sealed fox inside his jade bottle suddenly disappeared!
That Nascent Soul Stage elder hastily took out hismunication talisman from his spatial ring and informed the other elders about it.
The news about that quickly spread around, and the order to catch Tang Li Xue was immediately known to everyone.
They even suspected that Tang Li Xue''s true aim in sneaking into the Gu Family''s mansion was to ransack their treasure warehouse and the previous act to meet Zhu Yan was only to distract them.
But Tang Li Xue still did not know about it as she used her [Twin Moons] divine ability to re-summon her perfect copy to her side.
"It seems we have no other choice than to do our usual n. Let''s go and split up right now~!" Tang Li Xue urged her perfect copy as she hastily activated her [Ethereal Form] again and ran with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
Yes, Tang Li Xue nned to do their usual split up, run, and swap strategy, but her perfect copy did not think their usual strategy would work that well at this time, so she immediately called the real Tang Li Xue.
"Hey, wait a minute~! Do you really n to run away with our usual strategy?! Are you crazy?! That clearly will not work this time, okay?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy scolded.
Tang Li Xue halted her step and turned around to face her perfect copy, then said with a mocking tone: "All right, smart guy~! Then what can we do now to escape from this ce?!"
Her perfect copy rolled her eyes and exined: "First, there are so hidden many formations here, and we can be trapped inside them at any time."
"Second, so many Nascent Soul Stage elders and thousands of guards already began to patrol around to find us."
"Third, the [Concealment Barrier Talisman] only covers you, not me! So, those Nascent Soul Stage elders can still find me with their divine senses."
"Anyway, every time we get trapped in any formations and break away from any of them, we would definitely attract the attention of nearby patrolling guards or Nascent Soul Stage elders."
"Do you really believe we can get away from here in this condition?!"
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy rationally said to her real self.
Actually, the real Tang Li Xue also knew about it very clearly, but she really could not think of any other way to escape from this ce other than their usual swap strategy.
However, the perfect copy gritted her teeth and gave the real Tang Li Xue another reminder again: "I know you are still upset that Xiao Hei did not tell us anything about his engagement with Rongrong before, but I think we can only rely on his help to get out of here this time!"
"What the hell?! Relying on that jerk''s help to get out of here?! Are you insane?! No way~! Even if I have to get caught or killed, I would never rely on him anymore!" Tang Li Xue''s expression turned cold as she immediately rejected her perfect copy''s suggestion.
Even though Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy had the same IQ and knowledge, but her perfect copy tended to be more rationalpared to the real Tang Li Xue because she looked at everything from another perspective.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy wanted to argue with the real Tang Li Xue, but her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed that some Nascent Soul Stage elders had already found her with their divine senses.
"All right, those people already found me. I will try to attract their attention. I do not want to argue with you when we are still in this dire situation, but you better think carefully about my suggestion." The perfect copy muttered before she activated her [Ethereal Form] too and ran away swiftly from there with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
Not long after that, a group of guards and several Nascent Soul Stage elders came to chase after Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but they failed to notice the real Tang Li Xue who was still hiding around there in her [Ethereal Form].
Tang Li Xue was still hesitating, so she did not move around recklessly yet...
In fact, she still felt really resentful and angry at Xiao Hei right now.
It was not just about how he hid the fact that he actually had Rongrong as his fiancee...
But undoubtedly, her rtionship with Zhu Yan and her mission became like this because of him!
Yes, Tang Li Xue med all of these problems that she currently faced on Xiao Hei!
If Xiao Hei had not engaged with Rongrong, then Rongrong would note here and made a mess of her!
She did not even realize that her current feelings of resentment and anger toward Xiao Hei were actually caused by her jealousy of Xiao Hei''s engagement with Rongrong.
After pondering carefully for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue finally gnashed her pearl-white teeth as she decided to follow her perfect copy''s suggestion because that was the most feasible choice for now.
In those few minutes, her perfect copy had actually fallen into many dangers and got caught again by Nascent Soul Stage elders, so Tang Li Xue could only re-summon her again to her side.
With her perfect copy acting as a decoy several times, Tang Li Xue finally managed to reach Elder Yang''s courtyard.
Who knew that there was actually a protection formation around Elder Yan''s courtyard, and Tang Li Xue identally bumped into it which triggered an rm?!
WENG~! WENG~! WENG~! WENG~! WENG~!
"Damn it~! How the heck did they even put a protection formation in Xiao Hei''s courtyard?!" Tang Li Xueined in annoyance.
Well, she did not know that Elder Yang was actually grounded in his room by Rongrong in these few days, and this protection formation was actually like a cage to prevent Elder Yang from going out and looking for her.
Tang Li Xue no longer hesitated as she canceled her [Ethereal Form] and used [Moon Shattering Strike] plus [Sharp Edge Power] to break the protection formation!
BAAANG~! BAAANG~! BAAANG~!
Countless thin cracks began to spread after a few consecutive hits from Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Shattering Strike]!
BOOOOOOOMMM~!
The protection formation finally shattered after receiving more than a dozen [Moon Shattering Strike] from Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] again as her [Extrasensory Perception] detected several divine senses from Nascent Soul Stage elders scanning this ce.
Before those old Nascent Soul Stage elders coulde here to check, Tang Li Xue already rushed toward Elder Yang''s room and entered.
Elder Yang who was still inside his room frowned deeply in worry.
"Who has a gut to sneak here at a time like this? Don''t tell me, it is Xiao Bai?! No way, right? She should not be that stupid, right?" Elder Yang murmured in agitation.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes as she canceled her [Ethereal Form] while saying: "I am sorry for being stupid, but I am already here."
Elder Yang: "???!!!!"
Chapter 741 741: Rongrong’s Speculation!
Chapter 741 Chapter 741: Rongrong''s Spection!
?Elder Yang''s obsidian ck eyes shone brightly in surprise and excitement when he saw Tang Li Xue suddenly appear right in front of him.
It was truly like a dreame true for Elder Yang since he had already missed his Xiao Bai very much in these few days.
Elder Yang stepped closer to Tang Li Xue with a silly intoxicated smile on his handsome masculine face.
"Xiao Bai~?!" Elder Yang greeted Tang Li Xue with a very excited tone.
"Humph~!" Tang Li Xue turned her stunningly beautiful face away from Elder Yang in annoyance.
But she immediately realized that this was not the right time for her to sulk because some Nascent Soul Stage elders mighte here at any moment to check for the reason why the protection formation around Elder Yang''s courtyard suddenly copsed.
Tang Li Xue hastily exined to Elder Yang about it: "I just broke the protection formation in your courtyard and triggered the rm. I am sure there will be some people who wille here to check about it soon."
Elder Yang''s excited expression turned into a solemn expression as he muttered to Tang Li Xue in a reassuring tone: "Don''t worry, Xiao Bai. Leave it to me!"
Tang Li Xue nodded at Elder Yang as she activated her [Ethereal Form] again while whispering the problem she faced to Elder Yang: "I have already used [Concealment Barrier Talisman] to hide myself, so no one can probably sense me. But those scattered annoying formations are apletely different matter."
Elder Yang sighed in relief after he heard Tang Li Xue''s exnation since the problem was actually not as big as he thought.
If those Nascent Soul Stage elders could detect Tang Li Xue with their divine sense, then he might have to do something extreme if he wanted to bring Tang Li Xue out of this ce safely like using Rongrong or Gu Shengxin as a hostage.
But if no one could detect Tang Li Xue, and he only needed to bring her out of here while avoiding all formations, then it would not be a really hard thing to do.
"Xiao Bai, follow me closely from behind. I will try to lead you out right now." Elder Yang murmured to Tang Li Xue as he quickly stepped out of his room.
When he walked out from his courtyard, several Nascent Soul Stage elders had alreadye to check!
Elder Yang greeted those Nascent Soul Stage elders with a solemn expression: "I am sorry to everyone since I have broken this formation without permission. But themotion outside makes me really curious. I wonder if you can exin to me what just happened?"
"This..." Several Nascent Soul Stage elders nced at each other with hesitant expressions.
They clearly did not want to tell that the fox demon that Elder Yang was infatuated with had juste to meet Zhu Yan and even steal from the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse recently.
One of the Nascent Soul Stage elders from Immortal Sword Sect cleverly tried to reassure Elder Yang: "Elder Yang does not need to worry too much about it. Just a small thief trying to steal something from the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse. We will definitely catch that thief soon."
Elder Yang changed his solemn expression to angry and scolded: "How dare that thief sneak into the Gu Family''s mansion to steal something~! Don''t worry everyone! I will also patrol around with you all to catch that thief!"
The expressions of several Nascent Soul Stage elders instantly turned weird when they heard Elder Yang''s resolute words.
They all secretly thought: ''Help us to catch the thief?! It would be already good if you do not help the culprit to escape instead!''
Elder Yang''s expression turned gloomy as he saw unconvinced expressions on those several Nascent Soul Stage elders, so he said in a cold chilling tone: "What? Did you all really think that I would not be able to catch a mere small thief?"
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders immediately tried to deny it: "No, no, no... Of course not... Err, it is just that we think Elder Yang should take a rest instead since we should have been more than enough to catch that little thief."
After arguing back and forth for ten minutes or so, those several Nascent Soul Stage elders could only helplessly let Elder Yang patrol around with them under Elder Yang''s insistence.
Just when Elder Yang felt d after sessfully forcing several Nascent Soul Stage elders to ept his request, but Elder Yang did not realize that one of the Nascent Soul Stage elders from Immortal Sword Sect actually secretly contacted Rongrong.
That Nascent Soul Stage elder also exined what Tang Li Xue had done to Rongrong like how Tang Li Xue came to meet Zhu Yan in the middle of the night and steal something from the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse.
Rongrong, who had just woke up from her sleep, was still sitting leisurely on her bed while thinking deeply for a while.
Then she replied to the Nascent Soul Stage elder with hermunication talisman: "It is all right to bring Yangyang with you. I will also go out to meet Yangyang right now."
After Rongrong hung up hermunication talisman, she immediately changed her clothes, dressed up, and got out of her room to meet with Yangyang.
But there were actually many things that she currently thought in her mind...
"Why did that vixene to meet with Miss Zhu in the middle of the night?"
"And the theft was happening right after Miss Zhu called for help from Young Master Gu Shengxin... This Miss Zhu is really too suspicious."
"Don''t tell me that Miss Zhu is actually that vixen''spanion, and she is also a vixen in disguise?!"
"It should not be impossible, right?"
Rongrong murmured her suspicions on her way.
Rongrong also recalled that Tang Li Xue actually pushed Zhu Yan away when she used the [Mirror of Revtion] on Tang Li Xue before, and her suspicion of Zhu Yan instantly grew stronger.
"It seems I have to let the elders check this Miss Zhu Yan with [Mirror of Revtion] too..." Rongrong muttered in a resolute tone.
.....
Tang Li Xue still did not realize that Zhu Yan was being suspected by Rongrong because she came to meet her tonight.
At this time, she still secretly followed Elder Yang closely from behind as Elder Yang patrolled around the Gu Family''s mansion with several Nascent Soul Stage elders.
But on the way, their group actually bumped into Rongrong.
Rongrong cheerfully ran toward Elder Yang and intimately hugged his arm while saying: "Yangyang~! Why are you patrolling in the middle of the night with them?"
Elder Yang instantly felt a great headache when Rongrong intimately hugged his arm right in front of Tang Li Xue.
Even though he could not sense Tang Li Xue''s presence right now, but he could already feel Tang Li Xue''s displeasure and resentment before when he greeted her in his room.
If he still acted so intimately like this with Rongring right in front of Tang Li Xue, he knew that Tang Li Xue would surely feel more and more ufortable, disappointed, and angry at him.
Elder Yang tried to push away Rongrong, but Rongrong stuck so closely to him like a gum stuck on his shoes.
Elder Yang wanted to use more force to push away Rongrong from him, but he immediately realized that his current main objective right now was to bring Tang Li Xue out of this ce as soon as possible before the effect of her [Concealment Barrier Talisman] ran out.
He might only make the situation get a lot worse If he identally hurt Rongrong just because he used too much strength to push her away, so he decided to endure it for now.
Well... Just like Elder Yang had predicted. Tang Li Xue actually red at him menacingly from behind with a pair of eyes filled with jealousy right now.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in anger and resentment.
She really wanted to kick Elder Yang''s balls from behind so badly.
But she could only resist the urge since there were so many Nascent Soul Stage elders here.
Elder Yang immediately replied to Rongrong in order not to make her suspicious: "I heard from these elders that there is a thief sneaking in tonight. Coincidentally, I have been very bored after spending all my time in the room for the past few days so I decided to patrol around with them to find the thief."
Rongrong became a bit guilty after she heard Elder Yang''s words since it was she who grounded Elder Yang in his room for the past few days.
But she did it because she did not want Elder Yang to look for that vixen.
Rongrong tried to apologize to ease her tense rtionship with Elder Yangtely: "I am really sorry, Yangyang. But I dare to swear that I do it for your own good."
Elder Yang hastily shook his head before Rongrong said anything to hurt Tang Li Xue: "It is okay. I understand it well that you did it all for me. But Rongrong, I hope you understand that I also have my own feelings."
Chapter 742 742: Zhu Yan’s True Identity!
Chapter 742 Chapter 742: Zhu Yan''s True Identity!
?Rongrong knew that Elder Yang would definitely say something hurtful to reject her again, but Rongrong did not want him to say it right in front of others like this, so she immediately interrupted him halfway: "I get it, Yangyang. I will not force you again from now on. I will patiently wait until you are truly ready to ept me."
Elder Yang sighed in relief after he heard Rongrong''s words.
The several Nascent Soul Stage elders felt as if they had be the third wheel for them right now, while Tang Li Xue, who was secretly followed right behind Elder Yang, snorted disdainfully at them.
.....
Right at this time, Gu Shengxin had already hastily headed to Zhu Yan''s ce with an expression filled with worry.
He was really worried that the fox demon had done something bad to Zhu Yan.
But when Gu Shengxin stepped into Zhu Yan''s courtyard, he suddenly recalled Rongrong''s warning just now.
Yes, before Rongrong met with Elder Yang and the others, she actually called Gu Shengxin a few minutes ago with hermunication talisman.
Rongrong had already told her spection and suspicion about Zhu Yan''s true identity to Gu Shengxin.
Of course, Gu Shengxin did not actually believe Rongrong''s words right away since he really fell in love with Zhu Yan.
However, Rongrong still insisted that Gu Shengxin not meet with Zhu Yan alone and told him to wait for a while until a Nascent Soul Stage elder she sends arrives there to protect him.
Rongrong even warned Gu Shengxin to not approach Zhu Yan carelessly at least until the Nascent Soul Stage elder she sent checked Zhu Yan with his [Mirror of Revtion].
After hesitating for a few moments, Gu Shengxin finally decided to just follow Rongrong''s arrangement.
Gu Shengxin actually trusted Zhu Yan very much in his heart since Zhu Yan had already saved his life many times, but he thought there was nothing wrong at all with Rongrong''s careful thought.
It did not take long for the Nascent Soul Stage elder sent by Rongrong toe and meet with Gu Shengxin.
"Gu Shengxin greet Elder." Gu Shengxin gave a fist and palm salute while lowering his head to the Nascent Soul Stage elder.
The Nascent Soul Stage elder from Immortal Sword Sect nodded back to Gu Shengxin with a polite smile on his middle-aged face.
But before the Nascent Soul Stage elder followed Gu Shengxin to enter Zhu Yan''s courtyard, he reminded Gu Shengxin again in a solemn tone: "Let''s go in, Young Master Gu. But I have to remind you once again that you better not approach that little girl carelesslyter until I use my?[Mirror of Revtion] to check her."
"I know this might sound absurd and impolite, but I do it for Young Master Gu''s own good. It would be really bad if that little girl were also a beast in disguise just like the previous fox demon, and she took Young Master Gu as her hostage to escape from here. I hope Young Master Gu can understand my worries." The Nascent Soul Stage elder politely said to Gu Shengxin.
Gu Shengxin''s expression was also changed to serious after he heard the Nascent Soul Stage elder''s reminder. He nodded in understanding while saying: "Do not worry, Elder. I understand."
Then both Gu Shengxin and the Nascent Soul Stage elder stepped into Zhu Yan''s courtyard together.
Gu Shengxin knocked on the door of Zhu Yan''s room several times, but Zhu Yan did not immediately open it.
"Who is it?" Zhu Yan carefully asked from inside her room.
"Yan''er, quickly open the door! This is your Brother Sheng!" Gu Shengxin urged Zhu Yan in an excited tone.
Zhu Yan immediately opened the door of her room without any hesitation while happily shouting: "Brother Sheng~!"
Unfortunately for Zhu Yan, Gu Shengxin stepped back to take some distance from her instead.
The Nascent Soul Stage elder had already taken out his [Mirror of Revtion] from his spatial ring and pointed it at Zhu Yan who had juste out from her room!
Without giving Zhu Yan any chance to react, the Nascent Soul Stage elder activated the [Mirror of Revtion] in his grasp, and the [Mirror of Revtion] let out a light toward Zhu Yan!
In that instant, Zhu Yan''s disguise or transfiguration ability was canceled by the light from the [Mirror of Revtion], and she turned back from her human form to her sea beast form!
Just like what Tang Li Xue had guessed, Zhu Yan''s true identity was actually the Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei!
Her true form was actually a half-fish and half-human sea beast creature like a mermaid in the storybook.
Her feet to her waist were like fish with beautiful jade-colored scales, while from her waist to the rest of her upper part was just like a human, except for her ears which were like a pair of fins.
Zhu Yan was stunned for a while by the effect of the [Mirror of Revtion], but she slowly regained her consciousness while muttering: "Brother... Sheng..."
When Zhu Yan raised her head to see Gu Shengxin, she saw that Gu Shengxin red at her with a pair of eyes filled with anger, resentment, and disgust instead!
"You damn monster! How dare you sneak into Gu Family''s mansion and even try to seduce me?!" Gu Shengxin shouted in great rage as he kicked Zhu Yan away.
BAAAANNGG~!
Gu Shengxin did not even hold back any of his strength and kicked Zhu Yan with all of his strength until she was thrown off a dozen meters and crashed onto the wall of her own room.
Zhu Yan slit down from the wall while spurting out a few mouthfuls of blood.
"Puuufff~! Cough... Cough... Brother... Sheng... I... am really sorry... But I did not mean to... Cough... Cough... " Zhu Yan tried to exin with a pair of tearful eyes while kept coughing another few mouthfuls of blood.
"Shut up, you damn disgusting monster! DIEEE~!" Gu Shengxin took out a spirit sword from his spatial ring and brandished it at Zhu Yan without any shed of mercy.
Zhu Yan closed her eyes in resignation and helplessness as her tears dripped down to the floor.
But right before Gu Shengxin''s spirit sword almost cut Zhu Yan''s neck, the Nascent Soul Stage elder suddenly caught Gu Shengxin''s hand to stop him from killing Zhu Yan.
Gu Shengxin frowned deeply in displeasure as he questioned the Nascent Soul Stage elder: "Elder, what do you mean by this? Why did you stop me from killing this deceitful monster?"
The Nascent Soul Stage elder released Gu Shengxin''s hand and tried tofort Gu Shengxin: "Please calm down a bit, Young Master Gu. Ipletely understand Young Master Gu''s anger, but killing her right now will not bring any benefit to us. On the contrary, keeping her alive will definitely bring a lot of advantages to us."
Gu Shengxin took a deep breath to calm down his anger and displeasure of being deceived by Zhu Yan, then he asked in a curious tone: "Forgive me for being ignorant, but please, Elder exin it to me, so I can understand it clearly."
The Nascent Soul Stage elder chuckled as he exined it to clear Gu Shengxin''s doubt: "I have already seen this kind of beast in the ancient book. Her jade-like scale might look beautiful, but that is not the most precious thing about her."
Gu Shengxin became even more interesting as he asked again: "Oh? Then what is the most precious thing about this beast?"
The Nascent Soul Stage elder suddenly crouched down and picked something on the floor, then said: "This is the most precious thing from her."
Gu Shengxin took the item from the Nascent Soul Stage elder and carefully examined it.
It was actually a tiny transparent crystal emitting a mysterious white glow!
"What is this?" Gu Shengxin muttered in puzzlement.
"That is her crystalized tears. It has many wonderful effects such as prolonging lifespan, dramatically increasing the effect of any pills if you add while concocting them, making anyone who consumes it look young forever, and many other more." The Nascent Soul Stage elder exined with a delightful tone. He could even barely hide his excitement in his words.
Gu Shengxin''s eyes shone brightly after he heard the words from Nascent Soul Stage elder.
Then the Nascent Soul Stage elder added a few more words: "The advantage of keeping her alive is not only that... If we spread the news about her getting caught by us, we definitely can bait the fox demon who stole the treasures from your family''s treasure warehouse to save her!"
"At that time, we can take that chance to catch that fox demon and take back the treasures that fox demon stole!"
"In the end, we can get our hands on this rare fish beast, that precious fox demon, and even get back the stolen treasures! We will catch three birds in one stone! What does Young Master Gu think? This old one''s n is quite good, right?" The Nascent Soul Stage elder proudly said to Gu Shengxin.
Chapter 743 743: Weaving Inescapable Fatal Trap!
Chapter 743 Chapter 743: Weaving Inescapable Fatal Trap!
?Gu Shengxin became even more excited after he heard the Nascent Soul Stage elder''s n.
"What a great n, Elder?! This younger one admires you very much~!" Gu Shengxin praised the Nascent Soul Stage elder while smiling in admiration and giving a fist-and-palm salute to the Nascent Soul Stage elder.
The Nascent Soul Stage elderughed proudly while stroking his long beard.
Zhu Yan could only stare at Gu Shengxin in great disappointment and sorrow as if her heart had been stabbed with a sharp knife by him.
Her wounds worsened along with her sorrowful feeling, and she coughed another few mouthfuls of blood, then passed out.
Gu Shengxin only red coldly at Zhu Yan with an expression filled with disgust, hatred, and anger.
It seemed he thought that Zhu Yan''s deceit was a great humiliation for him. He evenpletely forgot that Zhu Yan had already saved his life several times before.
.....
At this moment, Tang Li Xue still did not know that Zhu Yan''s true identity as Sea Beast Princess had been discovered and even got caught by Gu Shengxin.
She was still following Elder Yang closely from behind while patiently waiting for a chance to get out safely from the Gu Family''s mansion.
Of course, it would not be so easy to do it since there were so many formations scattered around the Gu Family''s mansion.
If not for the Nascent Soul Stage Elders, who were leading their group with apass-like treasure in their grasp to avoid those scattering formations, they might have already identally fallen into one of the formations long ago.
Meanwhile, Rongrong was still hugging Elder Yang''s arm so intimately and sticking very closely to Elder Yang while kept chattering non-stop to him.
Even Elder Yang was alreadypletely overwhelmed by Rongrong''s enthusiastic chatter, so he could only nod his head and reply superficially to her.
The surrounding night scenery in the Gu Family''s mansion was actually very beautiful with many colorful nts and fireflies flying around freely, but no one has the mood to enjoy it at this moment.
Right at this time, Rongrong sensed that hermunication talisman suddenly moved and chimed in her spatial ring as someone called her through hermunication talisman.
Rongrong took out hermunication talisman from her spatial ring, but before she received the call, she secretly nced at Elder Yang with a faint of worry in her expression.
After hesitating for a while, Rongrong decided to make an excuse to get away from Elder Yang for some time: "I am really sorry, Yangyang~! My old friend who lived in Garden City called me to ask for some advice to please her husband. I will receive her call first, okay?!"
Elder Yang''s body secretly shuddered slightly in disgust when he heard Rongrong''s speaking in such a coquettish tone.
"I understand, Rongrong... You can talk alone to your friend first. I will not bother your conversation with your friend." Elder Yang nodded to Rongrong as he quickened his step to distance himself from Rongrong.
Rongrong did not mind Elder Yang''s awkward way to avoid being too close to her.
After Elder Yang''s group was tens of meters away from her, Rongrong finally received the call on hermunication talisman.
Of course, she was notpletely defenseless since there was actually one Nascent Soul Stage Elder from the Immortal Sword Sect who was protecting her closely.
But it made sense since there was still a sneaky thief that they did not know her whereabouts yet right now, and no one knew if the sneaky thief had any n to take Rongrong as a hostage to get away from this ce.
"Hello, what is it, Young Master Gu? Have you already met with Young Miss Zhu? What about it? Is there something wrong with her?" Rongrong asked after she epted the call on hermunication talisman.
"Hi, Miss Rongrong. Everything is just like you have already suspected before. That bit*h is not a human. She is actually a monster disguised as a human!" Gu Shengxin''s voice resounded from Rongrong''smunication talisman.
Rongrong''s expression did not change at all after she heard Gu Shengxin''s words as if she had already known it.
"So, what about her right now? Is she still alive? You did not kill her yet, right?" Rongrong asked in a solemn tone.
"No... Miss Rongrong, she is still alive for now. I lost my mind and almost killed her, but thankfully, the elder from your sect immediately stopped me before I chopped her head off." Gu Shengxin exined to Rongrong.
"Oh? Tell me what had happened at that time more clearly." Rongrong said in a tone filled with curiosity.
Then Gu Shengxin narrated what had happened before as clearly as he could to Rongrong.
Rongrong nodded her head in satisfaction at how thoughtful that elder was, and she had already nned to give more rewards to that elderter.
Especially the ''catching three birds with one stone'' n that the elder said before...
Rongrong did not care at all about that rare fish beast with her extremely precious tears and the stolen treasures from the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse, but she really cared about the fox demon who managed to seduce her Yangyang.
If she could catch that fox demon, she would be able to use that fox demon''s life to threaten her Yangyang to do anything, including marrying her as soon as possible.
"Not bad.... That Elder can think of the same n as me. If we use the fish beast as bait, we will definitely be able to lure that fox demon toe and save her. At that time, it would be aplete checkmate for her since there would be no way for her to escape from our trap." Rongrong muttered while sneering coldly.
Rongrong thought for a while, but she still decided to be more careful since she really did not want to give that fox demon any chance to escape from them anymore.
After all, Tang Li Xue had already managed to run away again and again right in front of their eyes several times.
Rongrong and the others still did not get how Tang Li Xue could do it until now whether she had a teleportation-type divine ability, a clone-type divine ability, or another mysterious divine ability.
However, Rongrong did not want Tang Li Xue to get away again this time, so she decided to prepare more backup ns before spreading the news about the fish beast getting caught by them.
Rongrong hung up the call from Gu Shengxin and used hermunication talisman to call the other people.
She began to call formation masters, alchemist masters, talisman masters, and so on to silently create the perfect trap for Tang Li Xue.
.....
Meanwhile, the oblivious Elder Yang sighed in relief after Rongrong left from his side.
"Humph~! What, Yangyang~?! Do you feel disappointed that your beloved fiancee is gone? You should just chase after her and keep sticking to her instead!" Tang Li Xue whispered to Elder Yang with her [Lock-On Telepathy].
Elder Yang''s body shuddered slightly when he heard Tang Li Xue''s cold tone which filled with vinegar.
Even though Elder Yang secretly felt extremely happy in his heart since his Xiao Bai felt jealous of him and Rongrong, but he did not want her to misunderstand his rtionship with Rongrong.
Unfortunately, Elder Yang currently could not sense Tang Li Xue at all since she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] plus the effect of [Concealment Barrier Talisman], so he could not reply to her with telepathy.
But Elder Yang did not give up and tried to use his song tomunicate with Tang Li Xue: "Cough... How could I do that?! My heart only has you~! I have already told the truth to her, but she still did not want to let me go~!"
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders stared at Elder Yang weirdly, while Tang Li Xue felt much better after she heard Elder Yang''s exnation and giggled in amusement at him instead.
One of the Nascent Soul Stage elders could not hold on anymore and said honestly to him: "All of Elder Yang''s talents should have already been put for maxing his cultivation talent, so it ispletely understandable that his talents in other fields are... not quite good."
The other Nascent Soul Stage elder nodded and added: "That is right. Elder Yang''s talent in cultivation might be unmatchable, but his talent in singing is... a bit unbearable."
Elder Yang: "....."
Elder Yang snorted displeasantly in his heart as he thought: ''Humph~! Who wants to sing for a group of old guys like you all~! If not for my Xiao Bai to not misunderstand me, I would never sing in front of you guys!''
But before Elder Yang and Tang Li Xue had a more pleasant conversation, Rongrong already ran toward their group again while shouting intimately to Elder Yang: "Yangyang~! I am here again~! Do you already miss me?!"
The mood of Elder Yang and Tang Li Xue plunged into gloom and depression again.
Rongrong hugged Elder Yang''s arm and stuck closely to him again, but without Elder Yang and Tang Li Xue realizing it, Rongrong had already weaved a terrifying inescapable fatal trap for both of them.
Chapter 744 744: Jumping Bravely Right Into The Trap!
Chapter 744 Chapter 744: Jumping Bravely Right Into The Trap!
?After patrolling for several hours until dawn, Elder Yang, Rongrong, and several Nascent Soul Stage elders still failed to find any trace of the treasure thief.
On the other hand, Tang Li Xue, who secretly followed their group closely from behind, also began to feel anxious.
She had already waited patiently all this time for their group to patrol on the periphery of the Gu Family''s mansion, so she could take that chance to get out safely from here.
But who knew that they were actually only patrolling in the core area all this time?!
Tang Li Xue started to lose her patience, and she was really worried that she still could not get out of this ce after the duration of the [Concealment Barrier Talisman] ended.
Right at this time, Elder Yang, Rongrong, and several Nascent Soul Stage elders got the news from theirmunication talisman that a fish beast disguised as a human was caughtst night!
Tang Li Xue was instantly dumbfounded after she secretly overheard the news!
''Wha... What the hell?! Fish beast?! Is it Yan''er? So, they had already blown Yan''er''s cover and even managed to catch her?!'' Tang Li Xue thought worriedly as her expression turned paler.
She really wanted to rush to save Yan''er right away, but she still did not know yet where they were locking her up at the moment.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her chaotic and restless feeling.
Then she nced at Elder Yang from behind with a pair of pleading eyes since she could only rely on Elder Yang to ask about Zhu Yan''s whereabouts to the others.
Even though Elder Yang could not sense Tang Li Xue''s presence at all right now, but he already knew that Tang Li Xue''s current mission was to bring Zhu Yan back safely, so he decided to ask Rongrong about Zhu Yan''s whereabouts.
"Rongrong, can you tell me where that rare fish beast is locked up? I really want to see that rare fish beastter after we catch the thief." Elder Yang asked while smiling gently at Rongrong.
Rongrong smiled back at Elder Yang as a cunning light shed in the deepest part of her eyes before she replied to Elder Yang: "I heard they locked that rare fish beast in a cage and put it in the main hall."
Elder Yang frowned slightly after he heard Rongrong''s words.
Because he immediately understood that they should have already nned to use Zhu Yan as bait to lure Tang Li Xue to save her!
Elder Yang did not really care about Zhu Yan''s life, but he was very afraid that Tang Li Xue would act rashly to save Zhu Yan!
Elder Yang really wanted to warn Tang Li Xue not to make any rash moves and just leave the task of saving Zhu Yan to him.
Unfortunately, Elder Yang cannot talk ormunicate with Tang Li Xue at all right now...
Actually, Tang Li Xue could also immediately read their intention to use Zhu Yan as bait to lure her into their trap, but she had no other way than to still jump into their trap in order to save Zhu Yan.
"I am sorry, Xiao Hei... I know this is their trap to lure me out, but I clearly cannot let Yan''er suffer for too long in their custody. I really have to save Yan''er right now." Tang Li Xue whispered to Elder Yang with her [Lock-On Telepathy] before she slipped away from their group.
Tang Li Xue dashed swiftly toward the main hall with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
After she got further away from their group, Tang Li Xue immediately used her [Twin Moons] divine ability to summon out her perfect copy.
"You know what to do right? We have to save Yan''er as soon as possible, so I will not waste any time to talk any nonsense with you." Tang Li Xue muttered to her perfect copy.
The perfect copy rolled her eyes at Tang Li Xue while replying: "You want me to act as a shield for you to locate any formations in front of us, so you can avoid them, right? Sigh... You always want to abuse me as your perfect copy!"
Despite herint, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still rushed swiftly in front of the real Tang Li Xue with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] as they were heading together toward the main hall.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to fall into another trap formation, but it made the real Tang Li Xue manage to avoid falling into that trap formation.
Then Tang Li Xue only needed to re-summon her perfect copy to her side, so her perfect copy could easily get out from that trap formation.
It might trigger the rm and alert all of the patrolling guards or elders, but Tang Li Xue did not care about them anymore.
Anyway, they should have already been waiting for her toe into the main hall to save Zhu Yan and set a lot of traps for her there, so there was no need for her to do it sneakily like before anymore.
She and her perfect copy kept repeating the same trick over and over again until both of them reached the main hall building.
Meanwhile, Elder Yang, Rongrong, and the rest of their patrolling group were also immediately heading toward the main hall building after they heard the repeated loud sound of the rm that was triggered by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
But Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy did not immediately rush to enter the main hall as they secretly hid in the building near the main hall first.
"Now what? Should I enter that main hall first to check the situation inside?" The perfect copy asked frowning deeply in worry.
Tang Li Xue immediately shook her head to reject her perfect copy''s suggestion and exined: "They should have already been well prepared to greet us inside that ce. I doubt you can easily get out from there even with our usual tactic."
"Rather than doing such a useless move, it would be much better for me to enter that ce in my [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya and try to use the swiftest move to save Yan''er from there."
The perfect copy nodded her head in understanding, and she agreed to just wait outside.
Well, the real Tang Li Xue only needed to grab Zhu Yan as quickly as possible and throw Zhu Yan into her medium-rank Space Pouch, then she only needed to use [Swap] skill to exchange her location with her perfect copyter.
Even though their n might not go that well since their enemies should have already expected it, but it was the best n they could think of at this moment.
Tang Li Xue took the sleepy Yaya from her System''s pet space and kissed her gently to wake her up.
"Ya?" Yaya babbled while rubbing her sleepy eyes.
"I am sorry to wake you up, Yaya. But I really need your help this time. Please, help me to save Yan''er, okay~?!" Tang Li Xue pleaded to Yaya.
"Yayaya Yaya~! (Leave it to me~!)" Yaya pped her wings while patting her tiny chest excitedly.
Yaya''s tiny figure turned into a sh of green light and merged into Tang Li Xue''s body.
*Ding!
[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]
Two pairs of transparent fairy wings appeared on Tang Li Xue''s back.
Tang Li Xue also canceled her human transfiguration and transformed back into her fox form, so her overall stats would return to her peak.
Tang Li Xue even activated her [Wings of Freedom] and [Wind Guardian Blessing] buffs to increase her speed even further by several times!
*Ding!
[Wings of Freedom] activated! (Increase the effect of Agility stat by five more times and grant Fast Flight buff for 15 minutes duration.)
*Ding!
[Wind Guardian Blessing] activated! (Increase overall speed by 50% and add auto-dodge effect. Duration: 10 seconds.)
BWOOOOOSSSH~!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure turned into a silver sh as she flew swiftly toward the Gu Family Mansion''s main hall!
As soon as she entered the main hall, the scenery around her suddenly changed into a chained dome!
She immediately realized that she had fallen into another trap formation.
Tang Li Xue instantly decided to cancel her [Ethereal Form] and go all out to break this trap formation without any hesitation!
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
A brilliant golden light shone as a faint image of the sun formed behind her!
The golden sun me and the deep blue me of Pride blended into one as the surrounding temperature instantly raised sharply!
Then Tang Li Xuebined the two mes into another skill...
[Dual mes Cyclone Storm]~!
A towering hurricanebined with the golden sun me and the deep blue me of Pride burning everything on their way to nothingness!
Even the trap formation could not hold the towering me hurricane and shattered apart in only a few breaths of time!
But a huge golden hand created from solidified spiritual power suddenly came to meet Tang Li Xue''s [Dual mes Cyclone Storm]!
BBOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Both the huge golden hand and Tang Li Xue''s [Dual mes Cyclone Storm] exploded and the high-temperature mes scattered!
Before Tang Li Xue could take a breath, another Nascent Soul Stage elder had already flown toward her and unleashed another attack on her!
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not want to fight head-on against this Nascent Soul Stage elder, so she immediately released her clone skills!
[Water Mirage]~!
[Multiple Wind Clones]~!
Chapter 745 745: Fierce Battle!
Chapter 745 Chapter 745: Fierce Battle!
?Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure instantly split into more than two hundred identical clones!
However, several Nascent Soul Stage elders remain unmoved by Tang Li Xue''s actions to confuse them.
They immediately unleashed their powerful spirit senses in unison to pressure Tang Li Xue and all of her clones!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones began to crumble one by one since they could not withstand the immense pressure from the divine senses exuded by several Nascent Soul Stage elders.
Thankfully, the [Multiple Wind Clones] skill that Tang Li Xue borrowed from Yaya was much more durablepared to her [Water Mirage] clones.
But the speed of her more than thirty [Multiple Wind Clones] was still greatly slowed down because of the immense pressure from the divine senses.
This was the greatest difference between the Core Formation Stage cultivator and the Nascent Soul Stage Stage cultivator.
The Core Formation Stage cultivator only had their Qi into a solidified state as a core, but the Nascent Soul Stage Stage cultivator had already cultivated their soul to an almost solid state which mean their soul had be powerful enough to affect the other creatures'' souls.
Only the real Tang Li Xue could remain unaffected by their divine senses'' immense pressure since her Spirit stat had increased by many timespared to before and even reached the maximum limit of her current beast grade.
Despite that, their divine senses'' immense pressure still managed to force Tang Li Xue out of her [Ethereal Form] a few moments ago, and she somehow could not enter her [Ethereal Form] anymore for now.
"These damn annoying old men ~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in exasperation as she immediately changed her strategy to avoid fighting head-on against those Nascent Soul Stage Stage elders with her [Wind Burst Step].
Two Nascent Soul Stage Stage elders rushed toward Tang Li Xue from her right and left sides, but she had already set some destination points.
When those two Nascent Soul Stage Stage elders unleashed their spells to suppress and catch Tang Li Xue...
BWOOOSSSH~!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure suddenly disappeared from their vision!
Yes, she actually used her [Wind Burst Step] and instantly appeared on the destination point she had set beforehand.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue stumbled into another formation instead this time.
Her surrounding scenery changed into a solid stonebyrinth without any gap for her to escape!
"ying stones with me?! You have to be kidding me, right?!" Tang Li Xue yfully mocked as she tapped her furry feet onto the stone floor lightly.
[Mother Earth''s Gift] - Great Earthquake~!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The entire stonebyrinth formation suddenly shook greatly!
Countless cracks started to spread on the stone floor, stone wall, and stone ceiling!
"Oh, damn~! This does not look good at all!" Tang Li Xue muttered while staggering around unsteadily.
Tang Li Xue hastily activated [Reflective Barrier] and created anotheryer of shield with her [Energy Maniption].
BOOOOOOOMMM~!
The entire stonebyrinth formation crumbled apart under Tang Li Xue''s Great Earthquake created with her [Mother Earth''s Gift]!
The stone rubbles fell down and fell on Tang Li Xue, but luckily, she had already set [Reflective Barrier] and transparent barrier created from her [Energy Maniption] to protect herself.
After the stone rubblespletely buried Tang Li Xue, the surrounding scenery changed back to the luxurious main hall, and all the stones rubbles disappeared.
But before Tang Li Xue could react, another Nascent Soul Stage elder had appeared right in front of her and solidified a giant golden hand with her spiritual power to catch her!
It was already toote for Tang Li Xue to set another destination point to use her [Wind Burst Step], so she could only try to use her other new divine ability to avoid the giant golden hand!
[Ster Banishment]~!
BAAAAAANNGG~!
The giant golden hand smacked toward Tang Li Xue, but she was no longer there!
She was actually reced by a ball of dazzling light like a star!
Furthermore, the giant golden hand was burned by the ball of dazzling light and evaporated into nothingness!
After one second or so, the [Ster Banishment]''s duration was finally over, and the ball of dazzling light disappeared, then Tang Li Xue returned back again to her original position.
The Nascent Soul Stage elder still did not give up, and he clearly wanted to release another spell to catch Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue was already prepared right now!
Regalia of Eclipse¡ [Eclipse of Desire]!
The mysterious eye between Tang Li Xue''s eyebrows was opened right at this moment!
In that instant, the Nascent Soul Stage elder saw all the scenes in front of his eyes fade away and be reced by an ethereal eclipse.
The eyes of that Nascent Soul Stage elder turned nk and soulless as if his soul was seized by Tang Li Xue''s mysterious eye.
Of course, that elder''s soul was still in his own body, but only his consciousness fell into the illusion made by Tang Li Xue''s [Eclipse of Desire].
Tang Li Xue took this chance to unleash one of Yaya''sbination killing moves to kill the Nascent Soul Stage elder!
[Shockwave Impact] plus [Vacuum sh] plus [Sharp Edge Power]~!
BAAAAAAANNG~!
Thebination of killing moves struck the Nascent Soul Stage elder and managed to break apart his clothes and inner armor, but they actually failed to take Nascent Soul Stage elder''s life!
But that Nascent Soul Stage elder was thrown off dozens of meters until she crashed heavily onto the solid wall that was protected by severalyers of formations.
Tang Li Xue stopped paying attention to that injured Nascent Soul Stage elder for now while muttering in an urgent tone: "Damn it~! Do they really put the detained Yan''er here?! Why the hell I did not see her yet until now?!"
Tang Li Xue clearly did not want to waste her time and energy ying hide and seek with these Nascent Soul Stage old men for too long.
.....
While Tang Li Xue was fighting fiercely in the main hall against several Nascent Soul Stage elders, Elder Yang also hastily headed to the main hall in order to help her.
Unfortunately, Rongrong had already read Elder Yang''s intention, so she actually led Elder Yang to enter a suppressing formation near the main hall instead!
Elder Yang''s worried expression changed to cold when he saw his surrounding scene change to a lush forest, and he red at Rongrong, then asked: "Rongrong, what do you mean by bringing me into this formation?"
Rongrong stepped away further from Elder Yang while the two Nascent Soul Stage elders from Immortal Sword Sect stepped forward to protect her.
"I am really sorry, Yangyang, but I do this for your own good... We already set a lot of traps and formations inside the main hall. If you make any rash move to save that fox demon or that fish beast, you will be the one in great danger instead." Rongrong muttered to Elder Yang in an apologetic tone.
Rongrong really did not lie to Elder Yang.
She had already called many experts before to design this trap to catch Tang Li Xue, so Elder Yang would be in life-or-death danger if he barged into the main hall recklessly.
But Rongrong clearly did not understand how deep Elder Yang''s feelings for Tang Li Xue were.
How could Elder Yang give up his intention to save Tang Li Xue just because of a few words from Rongrong, especially after he heard how dangerous their trap was?!
Elder Yang closed his eyes and shook his head in disappointment.
He sighed while saying to Rongrong in a cold freezing tone: "Rongrong, why do you have to go this far? Why do you have to force me? I might never love you as my fiance, but I always consider you as my younger sister."
Rongrong instantly felt a very bad feeling when she heard Elder Yang''s cold words, so she immediately gnashed her teeth while replying: "Considering me as your younger Sister? Hehehe... How dare you still say that to me?! Yangyang, you are so cruel. I love you so much, but you only y with my feelings all this time!"
"Why, why, why, why, why~?! Why you can''t love me just like you love that fox demon?! I do not want to be your younger sister! I want to be your wife!" Rongrong maniacally screamed to Elder Yang.
But Rongrong quickly took a deep breath to calm herself down and muttered to Elder Yang again in a resolute tone: "But you do not need to worry, Yangyang. I do not have any intention to kill that fox demon. I will just catch her."
"With that fox demon in my grasp, you will surely have no choice other than to obey my wish to marry me. I am sure you will slowly fall in love with me in the future after we marry and have a few cute babies." Rongrong said to Elder Yang honestly.
Unfortunately, Elder Yang would never let Rongrong catch his Xiao Bai, so he replied in a firm tone: "Thank you very much for your kindness all this time, Rongrong... But I have to say sorry to you first, because I could not let you catch my Xiao Bai!"
Then the thick ck Qi burst out from Elder Yang''s body all of a sudden!
The thick ck Qi covered Elder Yang''s entire body and took the form of a pitch-ck giant terrifying demon!
Asura Demon Sect''s true inheritance Technique - Asura Demon God''s Avatar~!
Chapter 746 746: Unmatchable Speed!
Chapter 746 Chapter 746: Unmatchable Speed!
?A pitch-ck muscr demon with a pair of demonic horns and bat-like wings stood tall right in front of Rongrong and several Nascent Soul Stage elders!
Compared to one hundred-meter-tall pitch-ck giant demon, Rongrong and several Nascent Soul Stage elders were only as tiny as a group of ants.
When Rongrong and several Nascent Soul Stage elders were still agape in shock, the Asura Demon God''s Avatar suddenly swung his fist heavily toward the empty space right in front of him!
BOOOOOOMM~!
The Forest Confinement Formation shook greatly and countless cracks slowly spread to the entire formation as if it could not bear the powerful punch of Asura Demon God''s Avatar!
BAAAANGG~!
The Forest Confinement Formation finally crumbled apart like a broken mirror after a few more seconds.
"No, stop him quickly~! Do not let him get close to the main hall building!" Rongrong shouted in a flustered tone.
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders immediately flew swiftly toward the Asura Demon God''s Avatar leaving only one Nascent Soul Stage elder from the Immortal Sword Sect to protect Rongrong''s safety.
Elder Yang controlled the Asura Demon God''s Avatar to rush in the direction of the main hall building, but several Nascent Soul Stage elders had already blocked right in front of him.
Elder Yang waspletely undaunted by those several Nascent Soul Stage elders and urged his Asura Demon God''s Avatar to swing down his fist like a heavy hammer toward them!
"Go away~! Do not block my way~!" Elder Yang roared out loud from inside the Asura Demon God''s Avatar, but it looked as if it was the Asura Demon God''s Avatar who was roaring instead.
BOOOOOOMM~!
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders already used their spirit treasures or spells to defend themselves from the brutal punch of the Asura Demon God''s Avatar, but all of them were still thrown off tens of meters!
Luckily, those several Nascent Soul Stage elders could quickly stabilize themselves before they crashed onto the ground, or they would look really embarrassed right now.
Of course, it still did not mean that Elder Yang could defeat those several Nascent Soul Stage elders by relying on his Asura Demon God''s Avatar.
He only managed to catch them off guard when he unleashed his first attack.
Moreover, those several Nascent Soul Stage elders did not really want to hurt or kill Elder Yang at all. They only wanted to suppress him for a while until the fox demon inside the main hall was sessfully caught.
After getting a good grasp of Elder Yang''s current strength, those?Nascent Soul Stage elders began tounch their counterattack topletely restrain him.
[Lightning Punishment Chains]~!
[Ice Tribtion Coffin]~!
[Torrential Wind Tide]~!
In that instant, Elder Yang''s Asura Demon God Avatar was assaulted by lighting, ice, and wind at the same time.
[Lightning Punishment Chains] restrained all of his Asura Demon God Avatar''s limbs, [Ice Tribtion Coffin] covered his Asura Demon God Avatar in a thickyer of ice, and [Torrential Wind Tide] toppled his Asura Demon God Avatar down!
.....
Meanwhile, the situation of Tang Li Xue, who was currently in the main hall, was not any better than Elder Yang.
At first, the few Nascent Soul Stage elders who faced her were a bit overwhelmed by her since she had too many strange divine abilities and skills.
These few Nascent Soul Stage elders also did not n to kill her, so of course, they would not go all out to attack her.
It would be really bad if they identally killed her since that would make an extremely talented cultivator like Elder Yang hold a great grudge against them instead.
Tang Li Xue tried her best to avoid any head-on sh with those few Nascent Soul Stage elders while heading deeper into the main hall to look for the detained Zhu Yan.
Even Tang Li Xue herself never expected that she could hold on this well against several Nascent Soul Stage elders only by relying on her extremely fast speed.
It made her realize that her current speed in [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya surely had surpassed even the Nascent Soul Stage experts.
Well, it was not that strange since she and Yaya had so many speed-enhancement divine abilities and skills that were superimposed with each other.
Tang Li Xue herself has [Super Speed], [Wings of Freedom], [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], and [Wind Burst Step].
Whereas Yaya has [Extreme Speed], [Wind God''s Eyes], [Wind God''s Endowment], [Fast Flight], and [Wind Guardian Blessing].
When all of those skills and divine abilities were superimposed with each other, Tang Li Xue''s current speed reached an unprecedented level for her current beast grade.
Tang Li Xue secretly regretted a little bit that she had reced the [Lightning Form] she copied with her [Mirror of the Moon] in the previous Foxes Hunting Festival.
If she still had [Lightning Form], then even these several Nascent Soul Stage elders could no longer pose any threat to her at all, since she could easily outrun them all.
After running in a circle to avoid their attempt to catch her with their spirit treasures for a few dozen seconds, Tang Li Xue and those several Nascent Soul Stage elders finally reached a long corridor in the main hall building.
Tang Li Xue was not really fond of this ce since it was too narrow, so it greatly limited her ability to dodge or run around.
But Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice than to pass this narrow corridor, since she could not destroy any of the walls, ceilings, or floors in this building because they were protected by severalyers of formations.
It seemed those people had already done everything they could to prevent Tang Li Xue from getting out of this building by destroying any walls, digging the floor, or flying through the ceiling.
Just when Tang Li Xue flew into the narrow corridor and those several Nascent Soul Stage elders were chasing her closely from behind...
BAAANG~! BAAANG~!
Two thick and heavy stone gates suddenly fell from above on both ends of the narrow corridorspletely trapping Tang Li Xue and the several Nascent Soul Stage elders inside the narrow corridor!
"Another annoying trap~! Then let''s see how durable these stone gates and walls are!" Tang Li Xue said in an aggravating tone.
[Mother Earth''s Gift] - Great Earthquake~!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The entire narrow corridor suddenly shook greatly just like the previous stonebyrinth formation!
But different from before, the entire narrow corridor along with the heavy stone gates were extremely sturdy under the protection of severalyers of enhancement and protection formations!
"Hahahaha~! Just give up, you fox demon! You can no longer get out of here!" The Nascent Soul Stage elder who was previously injured by Tang Li Xue with her [Eclipse of Desire] plus severalbination moves mocked Tang Li Xue with a tone filled with resentment.
Then several Nascent Soul Stage elders began to take out their confinement-type spirit treasures to catch Tang Li Xue!
The ck binding rope, small colorful pagoda, golden cage, ice coffin, jade bottle, and so on...
All of their confinement-type spirit treasures flew toward Tang Li Xue at the same time!
"You damn ugly senile old men~! I have no time to y with you all!" Tang Li Xue mocked them back while condensing a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang]~!
She also activated her [Sun and Moon Domain] prototype in the Sun Form to increase their power several times!
Then she solidified a huge baseball bat with her [Energy Maniption]!
A pair of [Sun Dragon ws] grabbed the huge baseball bat and swung it forcefully with all of their strength!
BAAAANG~! BAAAANG~! BAAAANG~!
The several confinement-type spirit treasures were struck by the huge baseball bat and flew back swiftly toward the Nascent Soul Stage elders!
The several Nascent Soul Stage elders did not even have enough time to react as their own confinement-type spirit treasures crashed onto themselves heavily!
"Bwahahaha~! Eat my homerun smash, you ugly senile old men~!" Tang Li Xueughed mockingly at the several Nascent Soul Stage elders.
The several Nascent Soul Stage elders stood up slowly stood up again and red angrily at Tang Li Xue.
They werepletely uninjured by Tang Li Xue''s superficial attack, but it made them look really embarrassed since they looked very messy right now.
"You stinky vixen, how dare you do this to us?!" One of the Nascent Soul Stage elders shouted angrily at Tang Li Xue.
Each of these Nascent Soul Stage elders was a respectable figure in their respective sect or family, so everyone always respected and feared them very much.
So, how could they endure Tang Li Xue''s humiliation?!
In a fit of great anger, a few of them unleashed a fatal attack on Tang Li Xue without holding back!
[Eight Destion me Finger]~!
[Tribtion Lightning Strike]~!
...
"Opps~! It seems they get really angry right now..." Tang Li Xue muttered in a solemn tone, but this was actually in her calction.
She hastily activated her [Reflective Barrier] and condensed the transparent barrier created by her [Energy Maniption] to block their attack!
BOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Chapter 747 747: Abilities Combination!
Chapter 747 Chapter 747: Abilities Combination!
?Tang Li Xue deliberately provoked them because she had already nned to reflect back all of their attacks with [Reflective Barrier] since the very start.
Unfortunately, the n in her imagination might be perfect, but the reality was far from that.
Both her [Reflective Barrier] and the transparent barrier created with her [Energy Maniption] could not withstand the fatal attacks from a few Nascent Soul Stage elders and disintegrated almost immediately!
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] screamed to warn her right before their fatal attacks could hit her, so she instantly activated the [Sun And Moon Protection] without thinking!
(Sun And Moon Protection: Became invulnerable for 2 seconds.)
Several powerful fatal attacks from those few Nascent Soul Stage elders struck Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body mercilessly until she tossed back and crashed extremely heavily onto the thick and heavy stone gate behind her!
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Who knew that Tang Li Xue actually managed to break past the almost imprable stone gate instead?!
Tang Li Xue slowly stood up again and shook her furry head to dispel her dizziness.
She might bepletely unharmed thanks to two seconds of the invulnerable buff from [Sun And Moon Protection], but in fact, she had just slipped away from a terrible death end.
Although Tang Li Xue still has 3 times deadly blow protections from [Sun And Moon Aegis], but the powerful fatal attacks unleashed by those several Nascent Soul Stage elders were clearly more than just three!
"Hey, I actually managed to break through this extremely hard stone wall?! Cough... I mean, of course, this is all within my calction~! As I expected from the smart me~!" Tang Li Xue happily praised herself.
Then she shed again to the deeper part of the main hall building before those several Nascent Soul Stage elders realized that she was still alive.
Just like Tang Li Xue had guessed, those several Nascent Soul Stage elders had an argument because of it right now...
"You idiots, we are asked to catch that fox demon alive, not kill it!" One of the clear-minded Nascent Soul Stage elders shouted to the other elders.
A few extremely angry Nascent Soul Stage elders who lost their minds just now instantly woke up and immediately regretted what they had just done very much.
"Oh, no... If that fox demon really gets killed, we will be really in big trouble. Let''s quickly check its condition first! I still have a [Life Extending Pill]. I hope that fox demon still has some breath left, so we can save its life." The other Nascent Soul Stage elder muttered in a depressed tone.
However, those several Nascent Soul Stage elders quickly realized that they could not find Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body at all there!
But all of those several Nascent Soul Stage elders sighed in relief instead after they failed to find Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body or any of her blood around there since it meant Tang Li Xue was still alive, and she could even move around healthily.
"Luckily, this fox demon is not only extremely cunning, but it clearly also has many life-saving skills." One of the Nascent Soul Stage elders said in a relieved tone.
"But we havepletely lost track of that fox demon right now." The other elder replied while frowning deeply.
"Heh~! You are really a senile old man~! Where do you think it could run to besides heading deeper into this building to find that fish beast?!" The Nascent Soul Stage elder with the long white beard said in a teasing tone to hisrades.
"What did you say, you old bast*rd?! Do you want me to pull out that long beard of yours until it is bald~!" The other elder angrily replied.
"You dare?!" The Nascent Soul Stage elder with a long white beard also shouted in an angry tone.
One of the clear-headed Nascent Soul Stage elders immediately tried to pacify them: "All right, that is enough! Let''s go and find that fox demon right now, so we can catch it quickly and go back home to rest!"
"Humph~!"
"Humph~!"
Two Nascent Soul Stage elders turned away from each other in annoyance, then all of the Nascent Soul Stage elders flew swiftly deeper into the main hall building in order to find Tang Li Xue.
.....
Right at this time, Tang Li Xue had already activated her [Ethereal Form] again and silently rushed deeper with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
This main hall building was really huge, and there were actually manyrge rooms such as meeting room, learning room, dining room, party room, strategy room, and so on.
Tang Li Xue could only patiently check those rooms one by one to look for Zhu Yan which greatly decreased her searching speed.
But with her current breakneck speed, she finally managed to find a big metal cage put in the party room after a few minutes of searching.
In that huge party room, Tang Li Xue saw an unconscious woman wearing a green dress imprisoned inside the big metal cage.
"Yan''er~!" Tang Li Xue shouted in a worried tone.
Tang Li Xue swiftly dashed toward the big metal cage and struck it heavily with her paw.
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
BAAAAANGG~!
The protective formation carved on that big metal cage instantly activated and glowed with brilliant light!
Tang Li Xue was thrown off more than a dozen meters instead because of her own [Moon Shattering Strike].
But she agilely somersaulted several times in mid-air and stillnded gracefully on the floor.
"Damn it~! This metal cage is actually so sturdy!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise while frowning deeply in worry.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white sharp fangs as her topaz blue eyes shone with resolute light.
"Then let''s see how sturdy you can be!" Tang Li Xue said as she condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang]!
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
A brilliant golden light shone as a faint image of the sun formed behind her!
"No, Not yet... Let''s add more~!" Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she urged her [Energy Maniption] to create a weapon to break the metal cage!
Tang Li Xue identally recalled how she created a huge deep blue me sword by using her me of Pride as a core ability and [Energy Maniption] as an auxiliary ability in the scorching desert game of the Foxes Hunting Festival.
This time, she would also add the Profound Law of Heat and Cold she hadprehended!
Just like how Meng Yue chose to perfect her core ability while integrating her many other abilities as an auxiliary to strengthen her core ability, Tang Li Xue has also begun to slowly take that step right now!
A big blue me sword slowly formed under Tang Li Xue''s [Energy Maniption]...
Unfortunately, something out of her expectations happened at this time...
BAAAANG~!
The big blue me sword suddenly exploded to nothingness!
"Damn it~! Why the heck it could fail at thest moment?!" Tang Li Xue angrily shouted, but she quickly realized the reason for her failure.
The reason was actually the Yin and Yang imbnce!
As long as she could not integrate her two domain prototypes, the Sun Domain and the Moon Domain into one perfectly with the Profound Law of Heat and Cold, she would not be able to ovee this Yin and Yang imbnce problem.
Tang Li Xue could only sigh helplessly while saying: "Forget it... Let''s just add Profound Law of Heat for now."
Tang Li Xue carefully controlled her deep blue me of Pride and [Energy Maniption] to create another weapon while adding the Profound Law of Heat into it.
After careful consideration, Tang Li Xue decided to make a huge heavy me hammer, so it could break the metal cage more easily.
This time, Tang Li Xue seeded in creating the huge heavy me hammer without any difficulty, but she was actually expending much more energy than usual.
The huge heavy me hammer was as heavy as a mountain and emitting scorching heat like the sun. Tang Li Xue was quite sure that this newly created huge heavy me hammer might even be able topete with high-level spirit treasures.
A pair of [Sun Dragon ws] grabbed the huge heavy me hammer, but they almost dropped the heavy me hammer to the ground since it was too heavy for them to handle.
In the end, Tang Li Xue also hastily urged the [Sun Dragon Fang] to bite the huge heavy me hammer, so it could hold the heavy me hammer with [Sun Dragon ws].
"Let''s go~! Break that metal cage now~!" Tang Li Xue shouted excitedly as the [Sun Dragon Fang] and [Sun Dragon ws] raised the huge heavy me hammer and used it to whack the metal cage!
BAAAAAANG~!
The huge heavy me hammer struck the metal cage heavily!
The huge heavy me hammer actually managed to create a big and deep dent in the metal cage, even some of the metal bars were melted under the heavy me hammer''s scorching heat!
"AGAIN~!" Tang Li Xue eximed as the [Sun Dragon Fang] and [Sun Dragon ws] raised the huge heavy me hammer and struck the metal cage for the second time.
BAAAAAANG~!
After this second strike, one side of the metal cage was alreadypletely deformed, and Tang Li Xue could actually enter the metal cage easily.
But Tang Li Xue thought in suspicious that there might be some traps set inside the metal cage, so she decided topletely destroy the metal cage instead!
"AGAIN~!" Tang Li Xue urged before the [Sun Dragon Fang] and [Sun Dragon ws] hammered the metal cage with the huge heavy me hammer for the third time.
BAAAAAANG~!
The metal cage finally could no longer bear it andpletely copsed under the huge heavy me hammer''s third strike!
Tang Li Xue impatiently rushed toward the unconscious Zhu Yan with an extremely worried expression.
Who knew that after she approached the unconscious Zhu Yan, she actually took out a hidden dagger and stabbed it swiftly toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Chapter 748 748: Pretense!
Chapter 748 Chapter 748: Pretense!
?Tang Li Xue waspletely caught off guard by Zhu Yan''s sudden hidden dagger stab!
Even her [Extrasensory Perception] warned her a bit toote since Zhu Yan seemed to not have any intention to kill her, so the danger sensed by [Extrasensory Perception] was almost negligible.
PUFF~!
But Tang Li Xue still managed to tilt her silver furry body at thest moment before the hidden dagger hit her since she currently had an unimaginable fast reaction speed plus [Wind God''s Eyes] in the [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya.
The hidden dagger only managed to sh at Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder, leaving a quite deep wound at her right shoulder.
Of course, this kind of wound was nothing to Tang Li Xue since her [High-Speed Regeneration] plus [Sun And Moon Aegis] could heal it in only a few breaths of time.
Tang Li Xue hastily jumped back to distance herself from Zhu Yan.
"Yan''er? No, you are not Yan''er~! You damn shameless scammer!" Tang Li Xue quickly realized and shouted angrily after being deceived by the woman who was wearing Zhu Yan''s green dress.
"Hahahaha~! Fox Demon, do you think you are the only one who can use the art of disguise?! But I am really curious how you saw through my disguise so quickly?" The woman in Zhu Yan''s green dress tore her skin mask while speaking andughing mockingly at Tang Li Xue.
Of course, Tang Li Xue would never tell the woman that she just used her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to see through the woman''s disguise.
--------------------------------------
[Gu Xiahui]
[Description: 4th Ancestor of the Gu Family. She might still look quite young, but she actually used the art of disguise to cover her old appearance. Never call her ''Grandma'' or she might beat you up so badly in anger.]
[Cultivation Level: 2nd Rank of Nascent Soul Stage]
[HP: 1,450,000/1,450,000]
--------------------------------------
''What the heck?! This old woman actually learned the art of disguise to cover her old wrinkled face?!'' Tang Li Xue blinked her topaz blue eyes in surprise.
''Humph~! You ugly old grand..." Tang Li Xue wanted to mock the old woman back, but her entire body suddenly felt very ufortable, stiff, and weak.
The woman sneered maliciously at Tang Li Xue while saying in a ridiculing tone: "Hehehehe~! How about it? It seems my [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison] already works."
Tang Li Xue finally understood why this woman did not let out any murderous intention to her, so her [Extrasensory Perception] failed to sense any danger before.
It was all actually because this old woman only nned to poison her from the very beginning.
Just when that woman''s [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison] quickly spread in Tang Li Xue''s entire silver furry body, the two bloodlines, [Imperial Moon Fox] and [Pure Sun Dragon], were immediately working to counter it!
Tang Li Xue''s [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline was working quickly to burn all of the poison in her body to nothingness, while her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodlinepletely nullified all of the negative effects from the poison.
But Tang Li Xue has to admit that this woman''s [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison] might be the strongest poison she had ever faced until now.
Even her two extremely powerful bloodlines need more than a dozen seconds in order topletely burn and neutralize this [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison].
Despite that, Tang Li Xue was still acting as if she was still poisoned by [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison].
"Huff, huff... You damn deceitful human, where do you confine Zhu Yan?! Cough, cough... If you dare to kill or hurt her, I guarantee that you will definitely regret it sooner orter!" Tang Li Xue angrily said to the woman in disguise with a weak voice.
"Pfft, Bwahahaha~! You are indeed a funny beast, fox demon~! Don''t worry that fish beast is still alive. As for where we confine her, you will meet with her soon after I catch you!" The womanughed at Tang Li Xue while teasing her.
Tang Li Xue regretted very much in her heart that she had not let her perfect copy secretly put the [Mapping Sense] tracker on Zhu Yan before.
On the contrary, Tang Li Xue had already secretly put her [Mapping Sense] tracker on Instructor Mei Lan, so she could quickly chase after Instructor Mei Lan and the others after shepleted this mission by saving Zhu Yan and bringing Zhu Yan out from this ce.
Anyway, the first thing she had to do right now was to track Zhu Yan''s current whereabouts.
After hearing this woman''s words, Tang Li Xue immediately realized that the quickest way to find Zhu Yan might be to deliberately get caught by this woman.
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] quickly sensed that several Nascent Soul Stage elders were alreadying here, so she hastily acted falling weakly under the woman''s [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison].
The disguising woman approached several other Nascent Soul Stage elders while proudly saying: "Hehehehe, you old guys are already toote~! The fox demon already falls under my poison!"
"Humph~! If not for Miss Rongrong''s good n, you will not be able to poison and catch that fox demon so easily like this!" One of the old Nascent Soul Stage elders replied in a tone filled with dissatisfaction.
"Hey~! You are just jealous of my aplishment! Miss Rongrong tell me to do it because only I havepletely mastered the art of disguise." The disguising woman replied with an even more proud tone.
To be more careful, Tang Li Xue took this chance when those Nascent Soul Stage elders were talking and arguing with each other to [Swap] with her perfect copy.
So if they tied up her perfect copyter with their spirit treasures, the real Tang Li Xue could still move freely after using [Swap] again with her perfect copy.
Just when Tang Li Xue thought her n was already perfect, something out of her expectations suddenly happened!
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Someone suddenly fell heavily from above and broke a hole in the ceiling!
From the rubbles on the floor, that person slowly crawled out while coughing a few mouthfuls of blood.
Surprisingly, that person was actually Elder Yang!
When Elder Yang saw Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, who was lying ''weakly'' on the floor, he immediately rushed toward her without caring about the several Nascent Soul Stage elders in this room.
"Xiao Bai~!" Elder Yang shouted in a tone filled with worry.
Elder Yang hugged the ''weak'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy lovingly and hastily checked her current condition.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy opened one of her topaz blue eyes and red angrily at Elder Yang who was almost ruining her n for the second time.
Elder Yang: "???!!!"
''Damn idiot Xiao Hei~! Why do you always ruin my ns again and again?! Sigh, forget it... Try to ask where they confine Zhu Yan from those old men. It would be much better if you could convince them to take me to where they confine Zhu Yan right now.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy secretly scolded Elder Yang with her [Lock-On Telepathy].
After that, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately pretended to be weakly unconscious again.
Elder Yang quickly understood Tang Li Xue''s n, so he also put on his acting performance right in front of several Nascent Soul Stage elders.
"Wake up, Xiao Bai~! It is me~! What happen to you?! Xiao Bai, please don''t die!" Elder Yang shouted in a tone filled with sorrow and worry.
The disguising woman exined to Elder Yang: "Elder Yang, that fox demon has already been poisoned by my [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison]. Without the antidote, it would not be able to move around anymore."
Elder Yang was secretly dumbfounded after he heard the disguising woman''s exnation.
He had already heard about the well-known [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison] from the Alchemist Sect before, even Nascent Soul Stage experts could be poisoned if they were not careful.
Elder Yang began to worry about Tang Li Xue''s condition again, but he quickly calmed down since Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not show any sign of weakness after being poisoned by[Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison] just now.
In the end, Elder Yang decided to continue his acting...
Elder Yang turned around and red resentfully at the disguising woman: "Then where is the antidote?! Hurry, give it to me!"
"I am sorry, Elder Yang. But I cannot give the antidote to you without Miss Rongrong''s permission." The disguising woman politely replied to Elder Yang.
The disguising woman did not dare to show any impoliteness to Elder Yang because Elder Yang might truly be a true Patriarch of the Immortal Sword Sect if he really married Rongrong in the future.
Of course, she actually secretly felt disgusted and looked down on Elder Yang for being infatuated with a mere fox demon in her heart.
Right at this time, the other few other Nascent Soul Stage elders and Rongrong also came into the room to chase after Elder Yang.
Previously, Elder Yang managed to escape from them by using his giant Asura Demon God''s Avatar as a decoy to attract their attention.
But it did not take them to realize that Elder Yang was no longer inside the giant Asura Demon God''s Avatar, then one of the Nascent Soul Stage elders in this room also secretly told Rongrong using hismunication talisman just now.
So, Rongrong and the other Nascent Soul Stage elders with her immediately rushed here to chase after Elder Yang.
Chapter 749 749: Situation Escalating Out of Control!
Chapter 749 Chapter 749: Situation Escting Out of Control!
?When Rongrong saw Elder Yang embrace Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, who was still in her fox form as if he was embracing and protecting his most precious person, her heart felt really painful as if it was stabbed with a thousand knives.
Rongrong gnashed her teeth as her tears trickled down from her eyes.
"Yangyang, why do you have to fall for that fox demon? What am Ickingpared to that fox demon? I... I swear I will fix it as soon as possible, okay? So please, Yangyang..." Rongrong muttered to Elder Yang in a heartwrenching tone.
But Elder Yang mercilessly shook his head to reject Rongrong: "I am sorry, Rongrong. I have decided never to deceive you anymore. You are the best girl I have ever met. You are kind, smart, and beautiful. But my heart already belongs to Xiao Bai."
Tang Li Xue secretly felt a bit touched after she heard Elder Yang''s words, but she stillined in her heart: ''What do you mean she is the best girl you have ever met?! Do you mean I am not kind, smart, and beautifulpared to her?! Damn Xiao Hei, I will teach you a lessonter after all of these are over!''
If Elder Yang knew what Tang Li Xue thought right now, he might roll his eyes and reply: ''Do you seriously think you are kind?! You almost kicked my balls twice before, okay?!''
After quarreling for some time, Rongrong wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve and said again in a much colder tone: "Yangyang, I do not care anymore about your feelings or who your heart belongs to. I just want you to stay by my side forever!"
"That fox demon had already been poisoned by the [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison]. If she does not receive the antidote in 3 hours, even her heart and blood flow will also petrified, and she will surely die horribly."
"Give that fox demon to me, Yangyang. I will make sure that fox demon would still remain alive as long as you stay by my side and obey all of my wishes." Rongrong offered to Elder Yang.
Elder Yang frowned deeply after he heard Rongrong''s words.
He knew that giving the ''poisoned'' Tang Li Xue to Rongrong might be part of Tang Li Xue''s n in order to find Zhu Yan but he also felt really worried about Tang Li Xue''s safety after she fell into Rongrong''s hands.
When Elder Yang was hesitating for a while, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy secretly kicked Elder Yang''s chest with her paw to let him agree with Rongrong''s offer.
Elder Yang immediately put on his acting again.
He gnashed his teeth with an expression filled with unwillingness and sorrow.
Then he red at Rongrong with a pair of bloodshot eyes while saying: "Rongrong, you can take her away, but you have to promise to never mistreat or hurt her! You also have to immediately give the antidote to her before it is toote!"
Rongrong finally smiled happily in great satisfaction after hearing Elder Yang''s consent since it meant Elder Yang agreed to stay by her side forever as long as she kept that fox demon alive.
"Do not worry, Yangyang. How could I break my promise to you? I will guarantee that fox demon will not only be cured from the poison soon enough but it will also live well and happilyter." Rongrong uttered to Elder Yang in a reassuring tone.
One of the Nascent Soul Stage elders approached Elder Yang to take away the ''poisoned'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from him.
Elder Yang''s expression was still filled with worry and reluctance, but he did not have any other choice than handing over the ''poisoned'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to the Nascent Soul Stage elder.
Rongrong nodded her head at Elder Yang while smiling gently as she approached him tofort him after the Nascent Soul Stage elder took away the ''poisoned'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from Elder Yang and brought her somewhere else.
This time, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not dare to make any suspicious movement or open her eyes to peek when she was in the Nascent Soul Stage elder''s grasp.
The Nascent Soul Stage elder also did not bother to bind or imprison the ''poisoned'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with any of his confinement-type spirit treasures.
When Nascent Soul Stage elder brought the ''poisoned'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to lock her up at some other ce that Elder Yang could not find, something shocking had actually happened again all of a sudden!
BOOOOOOOOOOM~!
The entire Garden City suddenly shook greatly!
Even the City Protection Formation that covered the entire Garden City was shaking violently like a jelly!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy almost opened her topaz blue eyes and jumped away from the Nascent Soul Stage elder in reflex, but thankfully, she managed to resist the urge to do it.
"What is happening?!" The Nascent Soul Stage elder eximed in a solemn tone.
The Nascent Soul Stage elder quickly rushed toward the secret underground dungeon while giving the temporary antidote for [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison] to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Yes, it was only the temporary antidote that could dy the effect of [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison], so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could live for several hours longer.
Rongrong never nned to give the real antidote of [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison] to Tang Li Xue at all.
Rongrong only nned to give this temporary antidote to Tang Li Xue periodically every day, so Tang Li Xue would not be able to escape from her grasp anymore, then Elder Yang would always stay with her forever.
After the Nascent Soul Stage elder threw the ''unconscious'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy into the secret underground dungeon, he immediately came back to meet with the other elders to check what had happened just now.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still did not dare to do anything rashly and decided to wait for a few more minutes.
But another loud explosion sound suddenly happened again for the second time!
BOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The entire Garden City shook greatly, and the thin cracks began to spread on the City Protection Formation that kept shaking violently!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy currently could not do anything, so she decided to ask the real Tang Li Xue instead.
"Hey, what the heck is happening out there?! Is there a terrorist attack or something?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy curiously asked.
"How the hell I could know?! But who cares about what happening out there, right?! Anyway, it would be better for us if the situation became more chaotic out there, so those annoying old men would be too busy to handle it, and they would have no more time to pay any attention to us." The real Tang Li Xue replied in a nonchnt tone.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy agreed with the real Tang Li Xue''s words. However, she still could not help but feel curious about it.
BOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The loud explosion sound had already happened several times in those few minutes.
A lot of buildings in the Garden City had copsed, and the City Protection Formation almost crumbled apart!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy opened her topaz blue eyes again after making sure that there were no more people around her with her sharp hearing sense, and she immediately carefully observed her surroundings.
It was truly dark and dirty inside this secret underground dungeon, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still could see everything very clearly with her [Night Vision] skill.
She also found a half-fish and half-human creature confined inside the prison across her prison.
"Yan''er~?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in an excited tone since she finally found Zhu Yan.
But when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy touched the prison bars...
BUUUUUZZZZZ~!
Her paws felt electrocuted by the formation carved on the prison!
When she pulled away her paws from the prison bars, she found out that both of her paws had burn wounds, but her [High-
Speed Regeneration] immediately kicked in, and the burn wounds immediately disappeared after a few breaths of time.
"Damn it~! This prison is actually much more annoying than the previous metal cage!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hissed in an aggravated tone.
"Just leave it to me! Let''s [Swap] again!" The real Tang Li Xue suggested to her perfect copy.
After switching her location with her perfect copy with [Swap] skill, Tang Li Xue immediately condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang].
Then she activated her Domain prototype [Sun and Moon Domain] in the Sun Form and solidified a huge heavy me hammer with thebination of her [Energy Maniption], Profound Law of Heat, and me of Pride.
The prisons in this secret underground dungeon were much harder to break than the previous metal cage, so it took Tang Li Xue more time and effort to break them apart using her huge heavy me hammer.
.....
Tang Li Xue did not even realize that the bloodbath disaster would befall to the entire Garden City because of her!
The Nascent Soul Stage elder, who imprisoned Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy a few minutes ago, came back to meet the other Nascent Soul Stage elders and asked: "What happened? Was there an earthquake or something?"
The other Nascent Soul Stage elder shook his head and replied with a solemn expression: "No, it is much worse than that. The Beast Tide has reached our Garden City! The four vile Spirit Beasts we have faced before have already started to bombard our City Protection Formation since a few minutes ago!"
"Our City Protection Formation might not evenst for five more minutes! We have to prepare to face that Beast Tide and four vile Spirit Beasts as soon as possible!" The female Nascent Soul Stage elder added in an urgent tone.
Chapter 750 750: Beast Tide Invades Garden City!
Chapter 750 Chapter 750: Beast Tide Invades Garden City! ?
?"What?! That is impossible~! How could our City Protection Formation onlyst less than ten minutes under those beasts'' bombardment?!" The Nascent Soul Stage elder who just got the news after imprisoned Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was extremely shocked.
"We also do not know the reason why our City Protection Formation can break so quickly under their attacks. But it is not important anymore. What we have to do right now is prepare everyone in the Garden City to face the Beast Tide''s invasion as soon as possible." The other Nascent Soul Stage elder replied in a helpless tone.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let''s do it now before it is toote!" The female Nascent Soul Stage elder urged the other elders.
When the group of Nascent Soul Stage elders prepared to leave the main hall, the other group of Nascent Soul Stage elders immediately flew to them and told them something urgent.
"Miss Rongrong said she already let the Gu Family''s young master and patriarch announce the news to all people in the Garden City as soon as possible."
"Our task right now is to head toward the Garden City''s wall before the City Protection Formationpletely copses. We have to stall for more time as much as possible against the Beast Tide, so all the people in Garden City can gather and prepare to face the Beast Tide."
The Nascent Soul Stage elder with a long white beard told the other elders about the task given by Rongrong.
The City Protection Formation''s true function should have been to buy them enough time, so they could evacuate the mortal civilians to a safer ce and prepare the human cultivators to fight against the iing beast tide.
But who knew that the City Protection Formation actually crumbled apart before they could do anything right now?!
Without any other choice, the task of buying enough time against the iing Beast Tide fell into the hands of the Nascent Soul Stage elders instead at this point, since they were the only ones who could do it.
All of the Nascent Soul Stage elders from Immortal Sword Sect, Gu Family, Alchemist Sect, and other sects rushed toward the Garden City''s wall as quickly as possible.
While the other weaker cultivators hastily prepared themselves...
Some of them were activating the formation around their house to protect their family.
Some of them were sorting their pills, talismans, and treasures to fight against the iing Beast Tideter.
There were even many of them who prepared to run away from Garden City as soon as the City Protection Formation copsedter.
But all of them knew that the entire Garden City would surely turn into hell as soon as the Beast Tide broke into the city!
.....
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao stared at Garden City from afar while riding on the top of a big white weasel.
Bingbing was very worried about Tang Li Xue''s safety, so she asked Instructor Mei Lan in an impatient tone: "Instructor Lan, should we rush to Gu Family''s mansion as soon as the City Protection Formation copses? I am really afraid that Little Xue cannot hold on anymore and get killed by those humans."
"Humph~! Then she deserves it! How dare she push us away as if we are her burdens?! Even if she is still aliveter, I will make sure to punish her very harshly until she wants to die insteadter!" Instructor Mei Lan muttered in great anger while gnashing her pearl-white teeth, but anyone could easily notice the unconceble worry in her tone.
The reason why Garden City''s Protection Formation could copse so quickly was actually because Instructor Mei Lan used her second treasured [Void Piercing Arrow] in order to break the City Protection Formation quicker!
If not for that, the Garden City''s Protection Formation would at least be able to hold for more or less one hour under the bombardment of four False Spirit Beasts and tens of thousands of beasts.
Just from this, it had already shown how worried Instructor Mei Lan was about Tang Li Xue''s safety right now.
Silly Fox might not bother to say anything like Bingbing and Instructor Mei Lan, but he grasped his fist tighter with a cold expression as if he could not wait to rush into Gu Family''s mansion and take Tang Li Xue out of that dangerous ce.
At this time, the four False Spirit Beasts happily bombarded the City Protection Formation with their respective divine abilities.
The False Spirit Beasts had already erged their body size to reach more than a hundred meters tall.
The huge Blood Bat almost covered the entire sky!
The enormous Stone Elephant was even bigger than all the nearby mountains!
The gigantic Poisonous Toad spread green and purple miasma to corrode the surrounding greenery and the City Protection Formation!
A humongous White Lion King looked extremely majestic and intimidating with his entire body covered in white mes.
Not to mention the mighty army consisting of tens of thousands of beasts that were at least dozens of meters tall!
It was truly a shocking sight which was more than enough to frighten everyone in Garden City who saw it.
No wonder so many of the warriors and cultivators in Garden City hadpletely lost their will to fight and already thinking to just run away from there after the City Protection Formation copse.
The huge Blood Bat suddenly took a deep breath until its chest bloated, then...
[Sonic Wave Scream]~!
SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECCHHH~!
The Garden City''s Protection Formation, which had already been struck by Instructor Mei Lan''s [Void Piercing Arrow] and corroded by the gigantic Poisonous Toad''s miasma, began to tremble violently under the huge Blood Bat''s [Sonic Wave Scream] as countless cracks spread around quickly on its surface!
"Boss Lion, this is so fun~! To think we can do something fun like this and get paid handsomely while doing it. This is really like a dreame true! Croakakakakaka~!" The gigantic Poisonous Toadughed happily while letting out ear-breaking loud croaking sounds.
The humongous White Lion King also sneered joyfully while adding: "Not only that, we can even eat the human buffet as many as we want after we break into this big city~! We get double payment to y around and eat delicious food, I did not even dare to think about it before! Bwahahaha~!"
Yes, these False Spirit Beasts were actually getting paid to create the Beast Tide to cause some damage against the Human Race by some Beast Races because of the previous conflict about the missing Inheritance Ground Tablet.
Then they were getting paid handsomely again by Instructor Mei Lan this time to attack Garden City as soon as possible in order to save Tang Li Xue.
How could these four False Spirit Beasts not feel happy since they got paid twice for doing the same task?!
?"All right, let''s stop ying around! Our precious client might get angry if we take too long to break this rotten shell. Come here, Stupid Elephant~! Both of us will deliver the finishing blow to break this rotten shell!" The humongous White Lion King shouted to the enormous Stone Elephant.
"Okay! I am fully ready, Boss~!" The enormous Stone Elephant replied as it walked closer to the Garden City''s Protection Formation which was already filled with countless cracks.
Even each of its heavy steps made the entire Garden City shake violently like being hit by a great earthquake, and many buildings in the Garden City even crumbled apart.
The humongous White Lion King slowly stood up and took a crouching stance.
The white mes that covered the humongous White Lion King''s body were burning even more violently all of a sudden!
ROOOOOAAAARRR~!
Then the humongous White Lion King opened his mouth while letting out an ear-deafening roar!
[Hell Burning Ember]~!
Strangely, the white mes on the White Lion King''s body congregated at the enormous Stone Elephant''s body instead!
Right at this time, the enormous Stone Elephant suddenly rushed and jumped toward the Garden City''s Protection Formation while its body was burning in the White Lion King''s mes!
It was truly astonishing that the Stone Elephant with a body bigger than any mountain could actually sprint so fast and jump higher than the cloud!
Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox hastily raised their hands and covered their fluffy fox ears with the palms of their hands.
The enormous Stone Elephant who was bigger than a mountain and covered in white mes fell down like a giant meteor on the top of Garden City''s Protection Formation!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The Garden City''s Protection Formation instantly shattered like a fragile porcin collided with a heavy stone!
The falling enormous Stone Elephant still did not stop yet!
It kept flying unstoppably like a giant meteor destroying whatever was in its path!
The Nascent Soul Stage elders who stood on the top of the city wall to guard the city from the Beast Tide were stunned for a while by the ear-deafening sound of City Protection Formation breaking.
Before they had time to react, the falling enormous Stone Elephant already reached the city wall!
"What the hell is that?! Watch out, everyone~! Get away from here quickly!" One of the stronger Nascent Soul Stage elders immediately shouted to wake up the other elders!
Unfortunately, it was a bit toote...
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The Garden City''s solid wall and metal gates were broken apart by the falling enormous Stone Elephant!
The falling enormous Stone Elephant even demolished around a tenth of the Garden City after its body fell into the city and created a huge deep crater in the city.
Instructor Mei Lan patted the big white weasel while saying: "Let''s go~! We will go straight to Gu Family''s mansion!"
Chapter 751 751: Meeting Yan’er Again!
Chapter 751 Chapter 751: Meeting Yan''er Again!
?A few Nascent Soul Stage elders instantly got killed while some of them got injured quite badly by the enormous Stone Elephant''s falling meteor attack.
But the enormous Stone Elephant waspletely uninjured, and it leisurely stood up again inside the huge deep crater.
"Ouch, that hurts~! Boss, you should give me more rewards aspensationter since I am the one who broke that barrier, okay?!" The enormous Stone Elephantined to the humongous White Lion King.
The humongous White Lion King rolled his eyes. He did not bother to pay any attention to the Stupid Stone Elephant as he roared out loud: "There is no more City Protection Formation to obstruct us~! What are you guys waiting for?! ATTAAAAACKKKK~!"
ROOOOOAAAAAARRR~!
All the tens of thousands of beasts roared excitedly under the humongous White Lion King''s urge!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The ground shook violently as the tens of thousands of beasts charged fearlessly in unison toward the Garden City!
"No, we will never let youe closer to Garden City!" One of the Nascent Soul Stage elders roared out loud in anger as all of the Nascent Soul Stage elders unleashed their skills and spells toward the iing Beast Tide!
BOOOMMM~! BAAANG~! BAAANG~! BOOOMMM~!
However, the humongous White Lion King already rushed toward them first to block all of their attacks with his white me wall!
"Heh, so weak~! Humans, you better give up early if you only have this strength!" The humongous White Lion King mocked while sneering at them.
When those Nascent Soul Stage elders felt humiliated and fuming in rage, the huge Blood Bat, the enormous Stone Elephant, and the gigantic Poisonous Toad already came toward them from three different directions!
So, the Nascent Soul Stage elders were actually surrounded by four giant False Spirit Beasts from four directions!
The fierce battle between the Nascent Soul Stage elders against the four giant False Spirit Beasts broke out in that instant!
The Beast Tide consisting of tens of thousands of beasts took this chance to invade deeply into Garden City and went on a rampage mercilessly there!
But the city guards and all of the human cultivators immediately activated all of the formations inside the Garden City to face those tens of thousands of beasts!
An all-out tragic war between Beast Tide and Garden City''s human cultivatorspletely broke out!
Hundreds of lives were lost from both sides every moment!
Blood flowed on the street like a river!
Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox, who were currently riding on the back of a big white weasel, did not have any intention to join the war as they rushed swiftly toward the Gu Family''s mansion.
.....
BAAANG~! BAAANG~! BOOOOOM~!
After spending a lot of time and effort, the huge heavy me hammer swung by the [Sun Dragon Fang] and [Sun Dragon ws] finally managed to break apart Tang Li Xue''s prison and Zhu Yan''s prison.
At this time, Yaya had already fallen asleep in her system''s pet space due to exhaustion because Tang Li Xue had used a lot of Yaya''s power to forcefully break into the main hall before.
"Huff, huff, huff... Yan''er... Finally, I can save you and bring you out from here... Cough, cough... But before that... Let me take a breath and rest for a while first..." Tang Li Xue, who was still in her fox form, panted heavily as she slowly approached the fainted Zhu Yan.
Tang Li Xue sat right beside the fainted Zhu Yan to rest while carefully checking out Zhu Yan''s condition.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she found out that Zhu Yan was injured quite badly, and even some of her internal organs were broken to pieces.
Fortunately, the beast race was much more resilient than humans, so Zhu Yan could still survive until now after suffering such fatal injuries.
Zhu Yan''s current injuries should be able to be resolved with several [Talisman of Regeneration], even though it might take a longer time.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief as she took out a stack of [Talisman of Regeneration] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] from her space pouch, then used both of them on Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan''s injuries immediately stopped bleeding and began to slowly recover under the effects of [Talisman of Regeneration] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery].
"Err, well... Should I just put Yan''er into my mid-rank space pouch and get out of here as soon as possible? But it seems really impolite to do so. Urgh, let''s just wait until she regains her consciousness." Tang Li Xue sighed helplessly.
Then she suddenly thought that meeting with Zhu Yan in her fox form seemed uncool.
Who knew if Zhu Yan would get angry at her again when Zhu Yan saw her in her fox form, right?!
Tang Li Xue used her [Transfiguration] to transform into her human form, then she created a set of elegant white male clothes with her [Energy Maniption].
Tang Li Xue even condensed a mirror with her [Energy Maniption] to check her current appearance.
After making sure that she looked as stunning and heroic as ever, she dispersed the mirror back into energy.
Zhu Yan''s injuries finallypletely recovered, and her eyshes fluttered slightly signing that she would wake up soon after fifteen minutes or so.
"Yan''er~!" Tang Li Xue excitedly grasped Zhu Yan''s hand.
"Umm... Brother Bai? Is this a dream or am I already dead?" Zhu Yan murmured half-consciously.
"Yan''er, this is not a dream, and you are not dead yet. I havee here to save you, so you do not need to be afraid anymore! I will bring you out of here soon, okay?" Tang Li Xue replied to Zhu Yan in a solemn tone.
Zhu Yan''s eyes became teary after she saw Tang Li Xue''s usual dashing, handsome, and heroic appearance.
All kinds of feelings appeared in her heart... Longing, sorrow, wronged, ashamed, regret, and so on...
Zhu Yan finally could no longer bear it anymore as she hugged Tang Li Xue tightly and bawled out loud without any restraint: "Brother Bai, sob, sob, sob... Boohoo~! Waaah, waaah~!"
Tang Li Xue waspletely dumbfounded by Zhu Yan''s sudden cry.
She was bewildered for a while and did not know what she had to do since she never tried tofort anyone before.
In the end, Tang Li Xue silently hugged Zhu Yan tightly without saying anything.
After calming down a little, Zhu Yan began toin to Tang Li Xue in a wronged tone: "Brother Sheng became so angry after he knew that I am not human. He even kicked me so hard twice and even wanted to kill me."
Tang Li Xue still hugged Zhu Yan tightly while gently whispering to her in aforting tone: "That damn bast*rd~! Don''t worry, Yan''er! I will make him pay it back a hundred timester."
"Umm... The elder beside him said they will use me to lure you out, Brother Bai. I am very afraid and worried that they will really catch you because of me." Zhu Yan nodded her head and told Tang Li Xue about their n.
"Don''t worry, Yan''er. I already knew about their n. I pretended to be caught by them before, so they brought me to this ce." Tang Li Xue exined while patting Zhu Yan''s head gently.
"I am sorry, Brother Bai. This is all my fault. I should have troubled you a lot, and you should have already faced a lot of danger toe here to save me. If only I had listened to you before, all of these would not happen, and we would not fall into this dangerous situation." Zhu Yan murmured in a tone filled with regret.
"It is all right, Yan''er. It is not your fault. Some of it is my fault for deceiving you before, so it makes sense that you cannot trust me. But mostly, it is because that Gu ''Jerk'' Shengxin is too good at deception! If not for him, all of these would not happen!" Tang Li Xue put all the me on Gu Shengxin without any hesitation.
Zhu Yan nodded her head again at Tang Li Xue in agreement again.
Tang Li Xue slowly loosened her embrace while saying: "Let''s go, Yan''er~! We have to get out of here quickly before the guardse here to check!"
Zhu Yan also reluctantly got out of Tang Li Xue''s embrace after she heard Tang Li Xue''s words.
But before Tang Li Xue could react, she suddenly felt something soft and warm touch her pink lips.
Zhu Yan actually kissed Tang Li Xue''s pink lips all of a sudden!
Tang Li Xue almost pushed away Zhu Yan in reflex, but she managed to resist the urge in time.
After a few seconds, Zhu Yan slowly withdrew from Tang Li Xue and lowered her head while blushing shyly.
Tang Li Xueughed at Zhu Yan while patting her head affectionately and saying: "You are so cute, Yan''er~! Let''s go! I will bring you out of here!"
Tang Li Xue carried Zhu Yan like a princess and dashed out swiftly from the secret underground dungeon!
There were actually two guards guarding right in front of the entrance of a secret underground dungeon!
But Tang Li Xue easily subdued them using her [Mystic Whisper] in an instant: "You two can fall asleep right now, and you will only wake up tomorrow!"
Chapter 752 752: Picking Up Little Loki!
Chapter 752 Chapter 752: Picking Up Little Loki!
?Tang Li Xue''s words seemed to prate directly into the deepest part of the two guards'' consciousness and both of them instantly fell onto the ground.
The two guards had fallen asleep so tightly that they might not be able to wake up any time soon even if someone pinched or pped them.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to waste her time to kill the two sleeping guards as she stepped out from the secret underground dungeon''s entrance with Zhu Yan in her embrace.
But she immediately recalled how annoying the formations scattered around the Gu Family''s mansion, and Zhu Yan might fall in danger if she identally stumbled into any powerful formations.
Right at this time, her perfect copy said to her through their connected mind: "Hey, you do not need to worry too much about it. You should really have to thank me for being smarter than you! I was already on my way to pick up Little Loki at the treasure warehouse while you were being lovey-dovey with Yan''er before."
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes while replying: "Don''t be too cocky. Clearly, our IQ and knowledge are exactly at the same level. My mind is just too upied in saving Yan''er before."
"Oh, well... You are just too proud to admit it~! Anyway, I will enter the treasure warehouse right now. I will head to your ce after I pick up Little Loki." The perfect copy stopped talking to the real Tang Li Xue as she, who was still in the fox form, suddenlyunched a sneak attack on the guards who patrolled around the treasure warehouse.
There were only a handful of guards with weak cultivation levels guarding the treasure warehouse, and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy easily solved them all without breaking any sweat.
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step]~!
[Moonlight sh] plus [Sharp Edge Power]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
After finishing off all the guards, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not feel happy at all, but she frowned deeply in worry instead.
"So strange... I did not see any guards patrolling around when I was heading here. Even an important ce such as this treasure warehouse was only guarded by these ipetent guards." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered in great suspicion.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy really wanted to find another living guard and forcefully interrogate him with her [Mystic Whisper], but she resisted the urge in the end since she still had more crucial things to do.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy clearly could not enter through the front gate of the treasure warehouse since it was made from mysterious solid metal and protected by manyyers of protective formations.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tried to find the huge hole in the treasure warehouse''s side wall which was created by Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour] before.
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, that huge hole had already been sealed again by the Gu Family.
"Argh, damn it~! I really have no way to sneak into the treasure warehouse! It seems you have to do it by yourself." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said to the real Tang Li Xue in frustration through their connected mind.
"Sigh... You are really useless as always. Just transform back to your human form and tidy up your appearance first before I use [Swap] to switch us." The real Tang Li Xue instructed in a smug mocking tone.
Then she exined to her perfect copy: "I don''t want Yan''er to get angry at us again if she realizes that she was actually in contact with you as my perfect copy all along."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "....."
Sometimes, she would have an urge to beat up her real self.
She immediately activated her [Transfiguration] to transform into her human form, and she also created an identical set of elegant white male clothes with her [Energy Maniption].
After putting on the elegant white clothes and tying her long silky smooth silver in a ponytail, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy condensed a mirror with her [Energy Maniption] to check if her current appearance was already exactly the same as her real self.
Then the real Tang Li Xue used the [Swap] skill to switch locations with her perfect copy.
Even Zhu Yan whom Tang Li Xue carried like a princess in her embrace should not realize that Tang Li Xue suddenly switched with her perfect copy.
Who knew that Zhu Yan suddenly raised her head and stared suspiciously at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, then asked: "Brother Bai, did you do something just now?"
Cold sweat trickled down from the perfect copy''s forehead at Zhu Yan''s question, but she still put on a calm act and replied in a gentle tone: "What is wrong, Yan''er? I did not do anything. Do you feel ufortable, Yan''er? Do you want to take some rest first before we get out from here?"
Zhu Yan frowned suspiciously, but she immediately shook her head while saying: "No need, Brother Bai. Maybe I was just daydreaming before."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy secretly sighed in relief.
But she still did not dare to move around rashly since she was afraid that she would identally bring Zhu Yan into a dangerous formation.
She could only proceed really slowly but carefully while waiting for the real Tang Li Xue to pick up Little Loki ande here to meet with them.
.....
Right at this time, the real Tang Li Xue had brought out her mighty undefeated divine golden inscription pen from her system storage and used it to dig a hole in the treasure warehouse''s wall, just like what she had done to the Imperial Treasury Warehouse in one of the Foxes Hunting Festival games.
After scraping the treasure warehouse''s wall bit by bit with her mighty golden inscription pen, Tang Li Xue finally managed to create a small hole in the treasure warehouse''s wall.
Tang Li Xue crawled into the treasure warehouse through that small hole.
However, Tang Li Xue immediately widened her topaz blue eyes in shock when she saw the vast empty room!
"Uh, has the Gu Family already moved all their treasures somewhere else? Err, it should be impossible to do it in one night, right? Don''t tell me Little Loki really managed to empty this entire treasure warehouse alone?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in disbelief.
Tang Li Xue''s estimation got stronger when she realized that no more formation obstructed her right now since Little Loki might have already broken all of them while consuming all the treasures inside this treasure warehouse.
Tang Li Xue looked around for a few moments and easily found Little Loki who was currently sleepingfortably in the middle of the vast empty room.
"Good guy~! This little guy is really too fearless and careless, right?!" Tang Li Xue said as she approached Little Loki worriedly.
Fortunately, she found out that Little Loki was only sleeping after checking its condition.
Tang Li Xue poked Little Loki''s soft cheek while scolding it softly: "You greedy little guy~! How dare you sleep so tightly here after you ate everything so cleanly?! If the Gu Family found out that you emptied their entire treasure warehouse in one night, they would surely skin you alive and cut you to pieces while you are sleeping!"
The sleeping Little Loki did not even wake up after Tang Li Xue poked its soft cheek and scolded it.
Tang Li Xue could only helplessly put the tightly sleeping Little Loki into her System''s pet space.
Tang Li Xue decided to discuss with her perfect copy first while she was heading out from the empty treasure warehouse through the small hole in the wall: "Sigh, we might face a quite troublesome problem right now... Without Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour], we can only grope around slowly with the usual summon and un-summon strategy like before."
"What a damn bad idea~! So, you want to use me to probe the way out, right?!" The perfect copy aggravately replied.
"We do not have any other choice, okay?! Sigh, don''t forget that we will trigger the rm if we identally stumble into any formation. We might get caught again if any Nascent Soul Stage elders found us." Tang Li Xue helplessly said.
"Eh... But strangely, I also identally triggered a few formations when I headed to the treasure warehouse, but no guards or Nascent Soul Stage elders came to check." The perfect copy stated her suspicion.
"Anyway, I will..." Before Tang Li Xue could finish her words, her [Extrasensory Perception] immediately sensed that something dangerous hade toward her!
Without any hesitation, Tang Li Xue hastily activated her [Reflective Barrier] and condensed anotheryer of transparent barrier with her [Energy Maniption]!
BOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Tang Li Xue, who had juste out from the treasure warehouse through the small hole, suddenly got bombarded by countless relentless attacks!
Fortunately, the number of their attacks might be numerous but they were not that powerful, so they could not break through Tang Li Xue''s defense at all.
Chapter 753 753: Pay It Back One Hundred Times!
Chapter 753 Chapter 753: Pay It Back One Hundred Times!
?Some of their attacks were even reflected back by Tang Li Xue''s [Reflective Barrier] and instead flew back toward the direction they came!
The smoke, dust, and ashes slowly cleared up showing thepletely uninjured Tang Li Xue who was still in her human form.
"So, it is you..." Tang Li Xue muttered in a cold chilling tone as she red at the person who led the army of more than one hundred guards in silver armor.
"Well, well, well... Isn''t this our handsome and suave Brother Feng Bai?! Haisss, Brother Feng Bai... You are surely really brave! How dare youe back to steal from my family''s treasure warehouse again?!" Gu Shengxin said in a mocking tone to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue silently observed the army of guards with her [Extrasensory Perception], but surprisingly, she failed to find any Nascent Soul Stage elder among them.
Gu Shengxin and all the guards clearly found out her action to sneak into the treasure warehouse earlier, so how could no Nascent Soul Stage eldere with them to catch her?!
Tang Li Xue''s premonition that something extremely dire was happening outside the Gu Family''s mansion grew much stronger.
All Nascent Soul Stage elders were clearly too upied in trying to solve the extremely dire situation that they could not even spare any attention to taking care of anything that happened in this Gu Family''s mansion anymore.
Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief, and her confidence grew much stronger all of a sudden.
As long as there was no Nascent Soul Stage elder in this Gu Family''s mansion, then it meant no one could currently be her match here... Well, except for those annoying dangerous scattered formations.
Tang Li Xue chuckled at Gu Shengxin while replying to him in a leisurely tone: "So what? You want to catch me? Just with these people?"
Tang Li Xue did not even take Gu Shengxin and his army of guards seriously.
She did not even have any intention of canceling her human transfiguration to face these weaklings.
Gu Shengxin sneered at Tang Li Xue and stated: "This is more than enough to deal with a petty little thief and swindler like you."
When Gu Shengxin talked with Tang Li Xue to distract her attention, the army of guards took that chance to surround Tang Li Xue from all directions!
Gu Shengxin waved his hand signaling the army of guards to attack Tang Li Xue again, and this time, they would attack from all directions!
But before they could do anything, Tang Li Xue suddenly used her [Water Mirage], and her slender figure split into more than a hundred identical clones!
More than one hundred [Water Mirage] clones scattered and rushed in all directions randomly, making the army of guards fall into confusion!
Then Gu Shengxin angrily shouted: "What are you waiting for?! Attack him now~!"
After hearing Gu Shengxin''smand, the army of guards could only spray their attack randomly at Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones!
So many spirit weapons, talismans, spells, and so on flew toward Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Most of the Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones were broken apart in only a few breaths of time, and they turned into puddles of water.
After all Tang Li Xues were shattered into the water, all of them were actually only clones! The real Tang Li Xue was missing!
"Damn, little thief! So, he has already run away, huh..." Gu Shengxin gnashed his teeth in anger.
But a melodious sweet voice suddenly whispered right from Gu Shengxin''s back: "Hehehe, do you really think I will run away from you? You clearly think too much of yourself."
Gu Shengxin hastily jumped away to distance himself from Tang Li Xue who appeared right behind him from out of nowhere.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to attack Gu Shengxin from behind since she thought it would be too shameful to attack someone as weak as Gu Shengxin from behind.
Tang Li Xue crackled her fist while saying coldly to Gu Shengxin: "You were the one who kicked Yan''er twice until she was seriously injured, right?"
"So what?! That b*tch dare to deceive..." Before Gu Shengxin could finish his words, Tang Li Xue already set a destination point right behind Gu Shengxin and activated [Wind Burst Step] while swinging her fist!
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure instantly shed forward at breakneck speed and...
BAAAANGG~!
Tang Li Xue''s small fist struck Gu Shengxin''s face so hard that several of his teeth flew out from his mouth, and he was thrown back dozens of meters because of the impact!
Gu Shengxin somersaulted several times in mid-air before his head fell disgracefully onto the ground first and dragged several meters, leaving a deep long trail on the ground.
"I have promised to Yan''er that I would make you pay it back a hundred times, so you better prepare yourself. I will strike you 199 more times." Tang Li Xue said to Gu Shengxin in an indifferent tone.
Luckily for Gu Shengxin, Tang Li Xue did not use her [Moon Shattering Strike] on her previous punch, or his entire head might have already exploded to blood mist just now.
But Tang Li Xue also did not n to kill Gu Shengxin immediately in one strike. At least, she wanted to punch him 200 times first before killing him.
"Young Master~!" The army of guards shouted as they began tounch another wave of attack toward Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue immediately used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to avoid their wave of attack.
Her slender body danced agilely on the battlefield like an enchanting butterfly as she dodged the iing spirit weapons, talismans, and spells that were flying toward her.
Her [Wind Burst Step] might be able to make her move several times faster, but her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] has much higher flexibilitypared to [Wind Burst Step] which was very suitable to be used to dodge any attack.
Tang Li Xue swiftly approached Gu Shengxin again.
When Gu Shengxin, who just stood up, saw Tang Li Xue get closer and closer to him, he hastily muttered in panic: "You... Do note here... I..."
Tang Li Xue swiftly closed the distance between them and continuously threw one heavy punch after another at Gu Shengxin!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
First his stomach, then his chest, his cheek, his nose, and so on...
"Two, three, four, five, six..." Tang Li Xue counted the punches shended on Gu Shengxin one by one.
The army of guards did not dare to attack Tang Li Xue rashly right at this time since she was too close to Gu Shengxin.
After receiving more than a dozen heavy punches from Tang Li Xue, Gu Shengxin finally could not hold on anymore and vomited out a few mouthfuls of blood.
Tang Li Xue used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to avoid getting stained by Gu Shengxin''s blood and vomit.
Then she instantly shed to Gu Shengxin''s behind and gave him a heavy kick to his crotch from behind!
BAAAAANGGG~!
"AAARRRGGHH~!" Gu Shengxin screamed out loud in great pain that even his eyes were rolled to the back of his head, and his mouth foamed.
Even the army of guards clenched their crotch as if they could also feel Gu Shengxin''s pain from his ear-deafening scream.
"Eighteen... Oh, well... I will just skip the count to twenty for that kick since it feels so satisfying." Tang Li Xue gleefully said to Gu Shengxin.
Tang Li Xue leisurely walked from behind Gu Shengxin to his front.
Gu Shengxin was still rolling on the ground in great pain, but Tang Li Xue grabbed his cor and picked him up forcefully.
She used her other hand and swung her fist onto Gu Shengxin''s stomach again and again mercilessly.
BANG~!BANG~!BANG~!BANG~!BANG~!
"Twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three..." Every time Tang Li Xue hit Gu Shengxin, she counted them carefully one by one.
The army of guards finally could not watch it anymore as they unsheathed their spirit weapons and rushed toward Tang Li Xue in unison.
It seemed the army of guards gave up their n to fight Tang Li Xue with ranged attacks and chose to fight against her in melee battle instead!
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply in annoyance when she saw the army of guards that rushed fearlessly toward her from all directions!
"Do you all really want to die so badly?" Tang Li Xue muttered in a chilling tone mixed with a faint killing intent.
She did not want to massacre so many people indiscriminately, but it did not mean she could not do it.
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
A brilliant golden light shone as a faint image of the sun formed behind her!
She looked holy and majestic like a bodhisattva incarnation right now.
Then a wall of golden mes mixed with the deep blue me of Pride suddenly rose from the ground around Tang Li Xue and Gu Shengxin.
The army of guards immediately halted their step. They could no longer get close to Tang Li Xue and Gu Shengxin because of the wall of mes.
But some of the guards were toote to stop charging forward and identally stumbled into the wall of mes instead!
They did not even have any time to scream or feel any pain since they instantly evaporated into nothingness as soon as they entered the wall of mes.
Tang Li Xue no longer bothered to care about the army of guards as she kept hitting Gu Shengxin again and again.
Chapter 754 754: Provocation!
Chapter 754 Chapter 754: Provocation!
?"Fifty-two, fifty-three, fifty-four, fifty-five..." Tang Li Xue kept counting as she was still tirelessly punching Gu Shengxin, and even the strength of her punch got stronger instead of weakening.
Gu Shengxin''s face had already been swelled and deformed beyond recognition. Even most of the bones in his body were cracked, broken, or shattered by Tang Li Xue''s merciless beating.
When the Gu Family''s army of guards could not get closer to help him out, Gu Shengxin realized that he could only rely on himself right now.
If he still did not do anything to get away from Tang Li Xue, he might really get killed by Tang Li Xue sooner orter at this rate.
Gu Shengxin gritted his teeth as he urged his spiritual energy and channeled it into his spatial ring.
With her extremely sharp [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue immediately sensed that Gu Shengxin nned to take out something from his spatial ring.
Tang Li Xue swiftly grabbed Gu Shengxin''s right hand with one of her hands and pulled his right hand toward her.
Gu Shengxin took a talisman from his spatial ring, but before he could activate it...
CRACK~!
"ARRRGGHH~!" Gu Shengxin screamed as Tang Li Xue swung her fist to strike Gu Shengxin''s right elbow!
Gu Shengxin''s right hand waspletely bent out of shape in a Z-shape by Tang Li Xue''s strike!
"Sixty-eight..." Tang Li Xue still did not forget to count that strike as she pulled away the talisman and spatial ring from Gu Shengxin''s broken right hand.
Tang Li Xue got really annoyed by Gu Shengxin''s deafening scream, so she swung her fist upward andnded a heavy uppercut on Gu Shengxin''s chin.
PUFF~!
Gu Shengxin spurted another mouthful of blood and several shattered teeth as his jaw was broken into pieces by Tang Li Xue''s heavy uppercut.
Losing his spatial ring meant Gu Shengxin would not be able to use his talismans, spirit weapons, pills, and so on which were all stored inside his spatial ring.
Gu Shengxin became extremely panicked as he hurriedly stretched out his other intact hand to try to snatch back his spatial ring from Tang Li Xue.
But how could Tang Li Xue let him do it that easily...
Tang Li Xue thrust her elbow upward to sweep away Gu Shengxin''s hand and used her other hand to throw a heavy punch toward Gu Shengxin''s armpit shattering all the bones at his armpit.
BANG~!
Gu Shengxin''sst intact hand hung weakly, but Tang Li Xue still pulled his hand andnded a few strikes topletely cripple hisst intact hand.
With that, both of Gu Shengxin''s hands were sessfully crippled by Tang Li Xue.
"Sixty-nine, seventy, seventy-one, seventy-two..." Tang Li Xue still diligently counted her every strike in a cold tone.
Gu Shengxin realized he had no more chance of winning against Tang Li Xue without his talismans, spirit weapons, pills, and so on since he had already lost his spatial ring.
Gu Shengxin instantly decided to run away from Tang Li Xue instead.
He quickly turned around and tried to run away further from Tang Li Xue in fear.
At first, Tang Li Xue did not bother to chase after him and clicked her tongue in disdain instead: "Tsk~! So disappointing! Is this the one-in-thousand-year human genius?! You are a man, right?! So stop running away like a bullied woman and fight like a man!"
After Tang Li Xue used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], she instantly caught up with the running away Gu Shengxin and threw a heavy sweep kick toward his leg.
CRACK~!
Tang Li Xue broke one of Gu Shengxin''s legs which made him fall onto the ground disgracefully.
Tang Li Xue took this chance to stomp on Gu Shengxin''s other leg and shatter itpletely.
"Seventy-three, seventy-four..." Tang Li Xue did not forget to count it.
She leisurely pulled Gu Shengxin''s cor to pull him up and kept punching him again like a punching bag.
Gu Shengxin had lost all of his means to resist, so he could only helplessly ept all of Tang Li Xue''s heavy punches.
Just when Tang Li Xue almost hit Gu Shengxin two hundred times, a strong suction power suddenly came to pull Gu Shengxin away from her.
Tang Li Xue jumped swiftly to chase after the pulled Gu Shengxin, but her [Extrasensory Perception] immediately sensed that something dangerous hade toward her.
Tang Li Xue hastily unleashed her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] again to avoid it!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
A rain of golden swords rained down on Tang Li Xue''s previous location!
Fortunately, she already used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to move to somewhere else.
"I am really curious how you were able to neutralize our [Muscle and Bone Petrifying Poison]. Can you please tell me about it?" A feminine but yful sweet voice asked Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue turned around to face where the voice came from while muttering in a cold tone: "So, it is you... I am also very curious why do you not keep apanying Xiao He... I mean Elder Yang ande here to y with me instead?"
Yes, the one who saved Gu Shengxin just now was actually Rongrong!
Rongrong threw Gu Shengxin aside in disgust and the army of guards immediately caught him, then hastily brought him away to get treated.
Then Rongrong stared at Tang Li Xue again and said in a cold tone: "I have to admit that you are really a slippery and cunning fox demon. No wonder you can seduce and bewitch my Yangyang. Buting back here and meeting with me again will be your biggest regret."
Tang Li Xue was not afraid of Rongrong at all.
It was Rongrong who exposed her disguise before and made her entire n fall apart.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue had already long been annoyed by Rongrong who kept sticking so close to her Xiao Hei.
This was Tang Li Xue''s chance to vent her anger, resentment, grudge, and jealousy on Rongrong, then make Rongrong pay in full for what she had done, so how could Tang Li Xue miss it?!
Tang Li Xue sneered back at Rongrong and replied in a mocking tone: "Oh, really? Then I want to see who will regret itter~!"
Tang Li Xue secretly used her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to peek at Rongrong''s current cultivation level.
--------------------------------------
[Zhu Chenrong]
[Description: 18th Great-granddaughter of Immortal Sword Sect''s old patriarch. The most favorite great-granddaughter who Immortal Sword Sect''s old patriarch had been pampered since infancy. If not for her yful nature, and she had given a lot of her cultivation resources to her beloved fiancee, she might have already reached the Nascent Soul Stage right now.]
[Cultivation Level: 9th Rank of Core Formation Stage]
[HP: 860,000/860,000]
--------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply after she read Rongrong''s information with her basic [All Knowing Eyes].
The cultivation level at the 9th Rank of the Core Formation Stage was quite high...
The strength of this Rongrong might not lose muchpared to Xiao Hei.
Moreover, she might have a lot of life-saving treasures and extremely powerful talismans.
Beating her clearly would not be as easy as beating the previous useless Gu Shengxin.
Tang Li Xue pondered for a while and decided to be more cautious, so she decided to ask her perfect copy first.
"How about it? Can you bring Yan''er out of this Gu Family''s mansion alone safely?" Tang Li Xue asked her perfect copy through their mind connection.
"Are you kidding me?! There are too many formations scattered around! I even have to take every step carefully! it may take a few days for me to get out of this Gu Family''s mansion at this rate!" The perfect copy immediatelyined.
"Tsk~! All right, I understand. I will be there soon. It''s too bad that I cannot beat this cocky pampered princess just like I beat that jerk Gu Shengxin." Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment as she activated the [Swap] skill to switch locations with her perfect copy and immediately un-summoned her perfect copy.
In Rongrong''s sight, it was like Tang Li Xue suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
Rongrong gnashed her teeth in anger as she muttered: "Do you really think you can run away so easily again?!"
Then Rongrong took a mouse from his beast storage bag and let the mouse track Tang Li Xue by using Gu Shengxin''s blood as the medium.
.....
After Tang Li Xue went back to meet Zhu Yan, she woke up the sleeping Yaya and immediately urged Yaya to enter [Divine Possession] mode with her.
"This is..." This was the first time Zhu Yan had seen Yaya, so she stared at Yaya curiously.
"This is my little sister, Yaya. I will introduce you to each other after we get out of this ce, okay?" Tang Li Xue said to Zhu Yan while smiling gently at her.
The sleepy Yaya did not bother to greet Zhu Yan and instantly turned into a sh of green light, then merged with Tang Li Xue.
Then Tang Li Xue immediately unleashed all of her clone skills to detect the surrounding formations, so she could avoid themter.
[Water Mirage]~!
[Multiple Wind Clones]~!
[Twin Moons]~!
Chapter 755 755: Clash Against Rongrong!
Chapter 755 Chapter 755: sh Against Rongrong!
?Previously, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also used [Water Mirage] clones to probe the location of hidden formations around her randomly before.
But [Water Mirage] clones were too fragile, so it was actually unsuitable to be used for probing the location of hidden formations.
It was the most suitable to be used for distracting or confusing the enemies.
On the contrary, Yaya''s [Multiple Wind Clones] was much stronger and durablepared to [Water Mirage] clones.
[Multiple Wind Clones] could even be used to fight the enemies, even though their strength was not that high, maybe around 5% of the user.
But there was no doubt that it was very suitable to be used in this situation!
?At this time, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also unleashed her [Water Mirage] clones to help the real Tang Li Xue.
Despite Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy trying their best to get out of the Gu Family''s mansion as soon as possible while carefully avoiding the hidden formations scattered around them, their speed was actually still too slow in Tang Li Xue''s opinion.
Unfortunately, there was no other choice but to do it this way.
Then something out of their expectations suddenly happened for the second time...
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The entire Gu Family''s mansion shook greatly at that moment as countless thin cracks spread on the entire protective formation that covered the Gu Family''s mansion!
"Damn it~! What again now?!" Tang Li Xue frowned deeply while gnashing her teeth in annoyance.
She suddenly had a bad feeling about it.
Tang Li Xue raised her head and widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and disbelief when she saw the protective formation covering the entire Gu Family''s mansion had begun to crumble apart!
Even Zhu Yan, who was still being carried by Tang Li Xue, silently tightened her grasp on Tang Li Xue while muttering: "Brother Bai..."
"Don''t be scared, Yan''er. No matter what happens, I will definitely protect you." Tang Li Xue said as she tried to appease Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan blushed while smiling sweetly at Tang Li Xue and replying: "I believe in Brother Bai."
Tang Li Xue''s mind was so upied by the shocking scene just now that she did not even realize Zhu Yan''s infatuated stare at her.
"Uhhh... You may not like to hear this, but that crazy woman hase here." The perfect copy hastily warned Tang Li Xue when she sensed Rongronge to them with her [Extrasensory Perception].
Tang Li Xue''s expression became more solemn as she stared in the direction where her perfect copy sensed Rongrong.
After a few breaths of time, Rongrong finally bumped into one of Tang Li Xue''s clones that were currently used to probe the hidden formations.
Rongrong waved her hand and threw a [Lightning Descend] spell toward Tang Li Xue''s clones!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Many spears of lightning struck down from above and destroyed many of Tang Li Xue''s [Water Mirage] clones at once!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy who hid among the other clones quickly activated her [Reflective Barrier] to block the spears of lightning!
"You crazy girl~! Do you really think I am afraid of you just because I let you go just now?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy scolded Rongrong.
Rongrong sneered at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and replied in a mocking tone: "Let me go? You are clearly running away in fear from me."
"Ci Ci Ci Ci~!" The tracking mouse pet in Rongrong''s hand was squeaking to Rongrong as if it was trying to tell something to Rongrong.
Rongrong immediately understood what her tracking mouse pet tried to tell her and nodded at it while muttering: "I see... So, this one is also a clone, and the real one should be in that direction. Such a realistic clone, no wonder you can always escape from us. So, all we caught before were only your clones."
The expression of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instantly turned solemn while she was staring at the tracking mouse pet in Rongrong''s palm.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy chuckled instead while saying: "Why are you so sure that the one you track is the real me and not my clone? Who knows if everything is actually my clones, and my real self is not even inside this Garden City."
Rongrong shook her head with a yful smile on her face and replied to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "No, I am almost 100% sure that the real you should be with the fish girl. I dare to guess your mission should be to bring that fish girl back, right?"
Before Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could reply, Rongrong already took out her sword spirit treasure from her spatial ring while saying: "There is no need for you to deny it. It does not matter anymore which one is the real you. Once I skin that fish girl alive, I am sure the real you would surelye to save that fish girl."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also created a sword using her [Energy Maniption] plus her Profound Law of Heat and even added [Sharp Edge Power] buff on the top of it as she replied to Rongrong: "Then you have to pass me first if you want toy your hands on Yan''er~!"
Rongrong and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy charged toward each other fearlessly as they began to fight fiercely against each other with the sword in their grasp!
[Torrential Sword sh]~!
Rongrong swung her sword heavily and unleashed a powerful sword energy on Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy activated her [Reflective Barrier] to protect herself.
BAAAAAAAANGG~!
The powerful sword energy bounced back to Rongrong after it crashed onto the [Reflective Barrier], but Rongrong could easily avoid it.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took that chance tounch a counterattack on Rongrong!
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Rapid Quick shes!
The slender figure of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suddenly shed toward Rongrong as she rapidly shed the sword in her grasp toward Rongrong.
Right at that moment, Rongrong''s figure instantly turned blurry.
[Fleeting Sword Dance]~!
All of the perfect copy''s [Rapid Quick shes] passed through Rongrong''s body as if she was only an illusion!
PUFF~!
Then blood gushed out as a long deep gash suddenly appeared from the perfect copy''s right shoulder to her left slender waist.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy coughed a few mouthfuls of blood while clicking her tongue: "Tsk~! As I expected, I really cannot win against you in my human form. What a pity since I really want to beat you up so badly in my human form just like what I did to that jerk Gu Shengxin before."
Rongrong smiled at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy as she spoke in a colder tone: "Heh, how dare youpare me to that guy?!"
"That guy can obtain the genius title because he is the pampered son of the Gu Family, but I ampletely different than him."
"Why do you think I can get pampered by my family when I am only a girl?" Rongrong asked for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy while unleashing another attack on her.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already canceled her human transfiguration and transformed back into her fox form in order to regain her full strength.
Both Rongrong and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in her fox form unleashed their powerful attack at the same time on each other!
[Torrential Sword sh]~!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was thrown off more than thirty meters as her wounds were worsened by the violent sh, and she coughed out another mouthful of blood.
Meanwhile, Rongrong only took one step back, and she was not affected by their violent sh at all.
It was clear at a nce which one of them was more powerful at this point.
Of course, what Rongrong currently faced was only Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy. The result might be different if she faced the real Tang Li Xue who was currently in [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya.
''Damn, this crazy girl is actually pretty good! I might have to be more serious if I want to fight on equal ground with her.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy informed the real Tang Li Xue through their mind connection.
''Sigh...This is really not looking good for us. We do not even know who destroyed the protective formation before, and that crazy girl suddenly came to make us busy.'' The real Tang Li Xueined.
Despite theirint, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy really could not think of anything to get out of their current situation.
Just when they thought the situation was already bad enough, another unexpected thing happened again...
"Hey, what the heck is that?!" Tang Li Xue murmured as she faintly saw something with her sharp sight.
At this moment, hundreds or even thousands of beasts suddenly flooded into the Gu Family''s mansion after the protective formation copsed!
The one who led them was actually the huge white weasel that currently became the mount of Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox!
The huge white weasel only gave two missions to all the beasts under itsmand.
1. Find Tang Li Xue and Zhu Yan.
2. Kill everyone in the Gu Family''s mansion.
Chapter 756 756: Reinforcement!
Chapter 756 Chapter 756: Reinforcement!
Tang Li Xue grasped in shock when she saw so many beasts suddenly flooding into the Gu Family''s mansion right after the protective formation copsed!
She immediately realized that the great earthquake and the City Protection Formation being shattered earlier were probably caused by the Beast Tide''s attempt to invade this Garden City!
To be honest, Tang Li Xue really had mixed feelings about this...
On one side, Tang Li Xue was very happy about it since the Beast Tide and their four False Spirit Beasts could be said to be her acquaintances.
She felt much more rxed and reassured when she saw so many beastse into the Gu Family''s mansion since they should be on her side.
But on the other hand,?she also mourned because so many humans should have been massacred at every moment when the Beast Tide charged into Garden City.
Tang Li Xue had already seen many viges or small towns razed to the ground by the Beast Tide on her way to the Garden City before, and the casualties might reach hundreds of thousands.
However, Garden City was an extremely prosperous city under the rule of the Alchemist Sect so its poption was also veryrgepared to any viges or towns Tang Li Xue had seen before, perhaps even reaching tens of millions.
Such a densely popted Garden City was mercilessly invaded by the ferocious Beast Tide right at this moment. The casualties might have reached more than 70% of that number!
At this time, Zhu Yan''s sweet voice suddenly woke Tang Li Xue up from her daze: "Brother Bai, what to do? So many beasts rush into this ce. Should we hide from them first?"
Zhu Yan''s face turned pale in fear as she felt restless and panicked.
Tang Li Xue smiled at Zhu Yan while saying to her in aforting tone: "Don''t worry, Yan''er! Their arrival might not be a bad thing for us. Our chance to get out of here may being soon."
Zhu Yan calmed down a lot after she heard Tang Li Xue''s words, and she nodded obediently at Tang Li Xue.
.....
When the real Tang Li Xue continued her way to bring Zhu Yan out of the Gu Family''s mansion, her perfect copy was still fighting fiercely against Rongrong right now!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy imbued her w with [Sharp Edge Power] and unleashed [Moonlight sh] toward Rongrong!
[Fleeting Sword Dance]~!
Unfortunately, her [Moonlight sh] also passed through Rongrong''s body again as if she were only an illusion!
PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy got shed by Rongrong''s sword, leaving a deep long wound on her back.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not even see how Rongrong attacked her, and she suddenly got injured!
Of course, Rongrong also felt extremely ufortable by the reflected damage from the [Sun And Moon Aegis] every time she attacked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, and she actually suffered some internal injuries because of it.
However her pride did not allow her to show any weakness to Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not realize it.
"What an annoying martial art~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined while frowning deeply.
She even tempted to use her [Mirror of the Moon] to copy it, but her [Mother Earth''s Gift] would be reced instead if she copied Rongrong''s martial art.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy was very fond of [Mother Earth''s Gift] since it was not only extremely powerful but also could be used to defend, attack, or even escape from the enemies, so she was unwilling to rece it with Rongrong''s mysterious martial art.
With her [High-Speed Regeneration] skill plus [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s rapid health regeneration, Tang Li Xue''s wounds quickly stopped bleeding and began to shrink in only a few breaths of time.
After dozens of seconds, all of her wounds were alreadypletely cured, and no scar could be seen anymore.
Rongrong also frowned deeply while replying: "Thank you for the praise. Your self-healing ability is also very annoying."
"All right, it is time for me to get a bit more serious, so you better prepare yourself, pampered little princess~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy uttered in a mocking tone.
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
A faint image of the sun formed behind her as the sacred golden light shone brightly!
By using the Profound Law of Heat''s power, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy condensed the imitation [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang]!
Under the blessing of the Sun Form Domain Prototype, the power of her [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang] was increased several times!
She even added [Sharp Edge Power] buff on [Sun Dragon ws] to increase their lethality!
Rongrong''s expression turned solemn when she saw the perfect copy''s [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang].
"Go and burn her to cinder~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered as she controlled [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang] to fly toward Rongrong.
Rongrong hastily took out an advanced talisman from her spatial ring and threw it onto the iing [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang]!
[cial Stream Talisman]~!
The flying talisman radiated a blue light as it let an extremely cold stream of water!
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Extremely cold water stream shed head-on against [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang]!
Without waiting to see the result, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy unleashed another attack on Rongrong using her [Mother Earth''s Gift]!
[Mother Earth''s Gift], [Trap Hole]~!
Rongrong was caught off guard by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and fell into the deep trap hole that suddenly appeared right under her feet!
Without giving Rongrong any chance to react, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy unleashed another attack to finish her off!
[Mother Earth''s Gift], [Earth Spikes]~!
Inside the trap hole, countless [Earth Spikes] instantly stabbed Rongrong mercilessly!
HUUUMMM~!
But before the countless [Earth Spikes] could pierce Rongrong''s body, the pendant on her neck shone with white light, and a crystal-like barrier suddenly appeared to protect her from any harm!
All of the [Earth Spikes] were blocked by the crystal-like barrier, and they could not even touch Rongrong''s clothes.
Rongrong angrily shed the sword in her grasp to cut all of the [Earth Spikes] around her!
[Torrential Sword sh]~!
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
When Rongrong jumped out from the trap hole, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had actually already waited for her!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had already condensed a spiked white shield with her [Energy Maniption] plus the Profound Law of Heat, then she set a destination point right behind the trap hole.
[Wind Burst Step]~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shed at breakneck speed toward Rongrong right after Rongrong jumped out from the trap hole!
BAAAAANG~!
The perfect copy''s spiked white shield crashed extremely hard with Rongrong''s crystal-like barrier!
The impact was so heavy that Rongrong felt her internal organ had been greatly shaken, and she coughed a few mouthfuls of blood!
Rongrong was thrown off more than fifty meters by the heavy crash, but she was still protected by her crystal-like barrier.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also coughed out a mouthful of blood and suffered some internal injuries, but she immediately restored back to full health in only a few breaths of time.
"Hehehe~! How about it, pampered little princess? No need to thank me. If you really like it, we can do it again. No, I will definitely do it again whether you like it or not~! Hahahahaha..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyughed at the messy-looking Rongrong.
"Cough, cough... You insolent vixen, how dare you do this to me?!" Rongrong angrily said as she coughed a few mouthfuls of blood again.
Rongrong hastily took a healing pill from her spatial ring and swallowed it.
Rongrong slowly stood up again while her expression became extremely cold.
Then she took out a stack of advanced talismans from her spatial ring while saying: "I am done ying around with you, insolent vixen. I do not care anymore about catching you alive for Yangyang. I will just kill you right here and now!"
The expression of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instantly changed into solemn.
There might be more than thirty advanced talismans in Rongrong''s grasp right now.
If Rongrong threw all of those talismans at once toward her, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy really did not have any confidence that she could remain intact.
But right at this moment, a familiar sweet feminine sound suddenly spoke to Rongrong from behind: "Oh, really? Then I want to see if you dare to use your talisman."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took a nce at the direction where the sound came, then eximed in shock and surprise: "Instructor Lan! Bingbing! Silly Fox!"
Yes, Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox hade toward them while bringing the army of beasts with them!
The army of beasts quickly surrounded Rongrong from all directions while Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox who were sitting on the huge white weaselnded right beside Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
"You guys~! I am really d that you..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy cheerfully greeted Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox, but before she could finish her words.
Instructor Mei Lan suddenly appeared right behind Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and put both of her fists on the right and left temple of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, then ground her fists violently until Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy screamed in pain.
"AAAAHHH~! OUCH~! PAIN~! OUCH~! PAIN~! I am sorry, Instructor Lan~! I will never do it again, so please let me go~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy begged pitifully in great pain.
Chapter 757 757: Terrifying Instructor Mei Lan!
Chapter 757 Chapter 757: Terrifying Instructor Mei Lan!
Both Bingbing and Silly Fox also felt dejected after Tang Li Xue pushed them out of Garden City''s protective formation and came back toplete the mission alone.
But they immediately felt very sorry for Tang Li Xue when Instructor Mei Lan punished Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy until she screamed in great pain.
"Err... Instructor Lan, Little Xue had already said that she knew she was wrong. Let''s just forgive her, okay?" Bingbing tried to persuade Instructor Mei Lan.
"Instructor Lan, Xue meant no harm. She clearly did it for our own good. If you still want to punish her, please let me take her punishment instead." Silly Fox bravely said to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan did not say anything and only red coldly at Bingbing and Silly Fox, but both of them instantly got intimidated and fell silent.
Then Instructor Mei Lan released the head of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from her grasp, but she still red sharply at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and began to scold her instead.
"How dare a little immature cub like you deceive me, your teacher, and your two teammates?! I will make sure you really regret itter~!" Instructor Mei Lan threatened Tang Li Xue while showing her gentlest smile, but her tone was extremely cold and terrifying.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy trembled in fright when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
"Cough, cough... Instructor Lan, please stop embarrassing me. Let''s talk about itter after we go back home, okay? There is still an outsider staring at us here." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stated a random excuse to distract Instructor Mei Lan''s attention.
Instructor Mei Lan did not even take a look at Rongrong from the very start as if she thought Rongrong was already dead.
After Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy reminded her, Instructor Mei Lan finally took a nce at Rongrong before she red back at Tang Li Xue and said to Tang Li Xue in a cold tone: "So what?! All the people in this Gu Family''s mansion are already fated to die soon. Do you need to feel so embarrassed of a person who will soon be a corpse?"
Rongrong sneered coldly at Instructor Mei Lan as she felt offended by Instructor Mei Lan''s words, so she uttered to Instructor Mei Lan in a mocking tone: "Oh, really? Then I want to see how you turn me into a corpse~!"
Rongrong held a stack of advanced talismans in her left hand while she took out a disc spirit treasure from her spatial ring with her right hand.
She looked truly determined to fight to the death against them and the army of beasts.
"Watch out~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy warned the others as her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed that Rongrong would do something dangerous.
Rongrong swung her left hand to throw the stack of advanced talismans toward Tang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her fangs in anger as she swiftly rushed forward to block the dozens of advanced talismans from attacking Instructor Mei Lan and the others!
But before Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could do anything...
PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "???!!!"
Rongrong: "???!!!"
Rongrong waspletely dumbfounded as her left hand suddenly cut off by something extremely sharp!
Then the stack of advanced talismans flew away before Rongrong could activate them andnded on the top of Instructor Mei Lan''s palm.
"How could..." Rongrong muttered in disbelief.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled coldly at her and said in a mocking tone: "A pampered little princess of Immortal Sword Sect. Extremely talented in cultivation and highly intelligent. Unfortunately, you clearlyck a lot of experience. It looks like your great-grandfather and parents pampered you too much."
At this moment, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy already found out how Instructor Mei Lan could cut Rongrong''s left arm just now.
"Invisible threads? Ah, I see~! So, Instructor Lan secretly created these invisible threads using her [Vibration Construct]!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in awe.
No wonder Rongrong had not realized those invisible threads until now. Even Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only faintly sense the invisible threads with her [Extrasensory Perception].
Instructor Mei Lan actually set so many invisible threads with her [Vibration Construct] without any of them realizing it until now!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stared at Instructor Mei Lan in unconcealed amazement.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy thought her strength had already surpassed Instructor Mei Lan after the Foxes Hunting Festival.
Because of that, she subconsciously tried to protect Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox by trying toplete the mission alone before.
But she realized now that her survivability and overall strength might have surpassed Instructor Mei Lan, but Instructor Mei Lan''s advantage was actually her cunning mind and her clever way of using her divine abilities.
In an all-out life-or-death battle, Tang Li Xue might only have less than a 50% chance of winning against Instructor Mei Lan.
Rongrong gritted her teeth as she hastily activated her pendant defense spirit treasure and a crystal-like barrier suddenly appeared to protect her from any harm!
Instructor Mei Lan''s invisible threads became ineffective, and they could no longer touch Rongrong anymore.
Rongrong threw down her flying spirit treasure in the form of a disc.
The disc instantly erged, and Rongrong quickly jumped on top of it.
When Rongrong controlled the disc to fly away, the army of beasts obviously would not let her go that easily, so they attacked her violently with their divine abilities!
However, their violent attacks could not break Rongrong''s crystal-like barrier!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Bingbing, and Silly Fox had already reacted to chase after Rongrong.
Just as the disc almost flew away from that ce, Rongrong felt extremely dizzy all of a sudden.
BAAAANGG~!
The disc wobbled and Rongrong fell down from the top of the disc!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Bingbing, and Silly Fox were once again stunned silly when they saw Rongrong fall down from her own flying treasure.
But Instructor Mei Lan chuckled at Rongrong instead while saying: "Your defense treasure is really sturdy. It should be a high-grade spirit treasure. It is such a pity that no matter how strong or sturdy it is, it still cannot block ''sound'', right?"
Rongrong whoy down embarrassedly on the ground slowly stood up again, but she immediately fell down again as if she could not stand up anymore.
"Cannot block sound? So you... Cough, cough, cough..." Rongrong coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood before she could finish her words.
Her dizziness became worse as time passed, and even her vision turned more and more blurry.
Rongrong had not even realized that her seven orifices were already bleeding at this point.
Her crystal-like barrier still remained intact until now, but Instructor Mei Lan''s sound attack clearly could pass through any kind of defense and assault Rongrong directly!
"Do you really think that I only scolded my naughty student right in front of you before? Hehehe... Just how naive are you, little pampered princess?" Instructor Mei Lan giggled mockingly at Rongrong.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy widened her topaz blue eyes in shock while thinking: ''Damn~! So, Instructor Lan was only stalling for the time before?!She actually secretly set up the trap for Rongrong when she was scolding me before?!''
When Instructor Mei Lan scolded Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy before, she actually secretly used her [Vibration Construct] to create invisible threads and let out an undetectable sound attack aimed at Rongrong.
Instructor Mei Lan''s undetectable sound attack did not immediately affect Rongrong but slowly impaired all of her senses, brain, and consciousness.
Rongrong clearly also had a brilliant mind, but she was still far from beingpared to Instructor Mei Lan.
If Rongrong immediately made her move to run away from here right after she saw Instructor Mei Lan and the army of beasts, she might still have some chances of escaping from here.
Unfortunately, she actually fell under Instructor Mei Lan''s scheme without realizing it since she was still thinking of a way to take Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy as her hostage to raise her chance to get out from here before, so she decided to wait instead.
Instructor Mei Lan walked slowly step by step to Rongrong who already could not stand up anymore while saying in a leisurely tone: "So, how about it, Little Pampered Princess? Do you want me to turn you into a corpse slowly or instantly? I will give you the right to choose it."
Rongrong smiled helplessness as she muttered in a sorrowful tone: "I am really sorry, Yangyang... I cannot apany you by your side anymore. But I guess you will be happy if I am no longer by your side since you can get back to be with your fox demon."
Rongrong slowly closed her eyes while whispering in a regretful tone: "Yangyang, I wonder if you will even feel sad if I passed away? Will you really cry on my grave?"
Instructor Mei Lan stretched her hand toward Rongrong who was still protected by the crystal-like barrier as her vibration power spread to the tip of her finger.
Thebination of her vibration and sound power clearly could easily pass through Rongrong''s crystal-like barrier and kill Rongrong instantly.
But before Instructor Mei Lan could touch Rongrong or her crystal-like barrier...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
A giant pitch-ck demon suddenly jumped toward Instructor Mei Lan from a hundred meters away and threw a heavy punch at her!
Instructor Mei Lan hastily used her [Vibration Construct] to create a barrier in order to block the giant pitch-ck demon''s heavy punch!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM~!
Chapter 758 758: Contradiction!
Chapter 758 Chapter 758: Contradiction!
The barrier Instructor Mei Lan created from her [Vibration Construct] was not only to protect herself, but it also has a very fierce feature!
The giant pitch-ck demon''s fist shredded into ck smoke the moment it touched the [Vibration Construct]''s barrier!
The barrier was actually vibrating at an extremely high frequency, so the moment anything touched it, the barrier could disintegrate its structure at the molecr level.
Different from when Instructor Mei Lan sparred against her students or fought against Zuo Hongzhuang before, she did not need to hold back against her foes in order to not kill them this time, especially since they were humans she despised so much.
"What is that big thing? Something created from the condensation of spiritual energy? Then let''s see how tough it is~!" Instructor Mei Lan chuckled coldly as she thrust her palm toward the giant pitch-ck demon from more than dozens of meters away.
[Demonic Tune] plus [Heavenly Sound]¡ [Intense Vibration Strike]: 1st echo!
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The giant pitch-ck demon crouched down as it tried to defend itself by crossing its hands and closing its pair of pitch-ck demonic wings right in front of it, but it was clearly not enough.
Both its hands and its demonic wings were shredded away and turned back into pitch-ck spiritual energy by Instructor Mei Lan''s attack.
The huge body of a pitch-ck demon was thrown off more than fifty meters until it rolled on the ground embarrassingly.
Fortunately, Rongrong had been safely secured inside the pitch-ck demon''s giant body, so she did not get affected by the violent sound attack from Instructor Mei Lan.
Right at this time, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had already recognized the identity of the huge pitch-ck demon.
She immediately fell into panic and confusion whileining in her mind: ''That damn idiot Xiao Hei?! What the heck is he nning to do?! Does he really want to die together with that bi... Cough, I mean with that crazy girl?!''
Previously, Instructor Mei Lan even managed to defeat Zuo Hongzhuang who was at the false spirit beast level with her 4th echo.
Elder Yang''s Asura Demon God Avatar was clearly not nearly as powerful as Zuo Hongzhuang.
"Oh? Not bad~! So, you can withstand my 1st echo, then how about my 2nd echo?" Instructor Mei Lan yfully said in a teasing tone.
CLACK~!
Instructor Mei Lan snapped her fingers and her slender figure suddenly appeared right above the huge pitch-ck demon''s body that stilly on the ground as if she was instantly teleported there.
2nd echo: [Demonic Tune] variation move: [Grinding Strike]!
Instructor Mei Lan swung her palm gently downward toward the huge pitch-ck demon.
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The entire giant body of a pitch-ck demon disintegrated into ck smoke in a blink of an eye along with the surrounding buildings!
After the dust and ck smoke cleared out, there was a bloody man inside the big crater created by Instructor Mei Lan''s [Grinding Strike].
It was actually Elder Yang who fell on his knee while holding the fainted Rongrong in his arm.
"Cough, cough, cough... Pfffft~!" Elder Yang coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood and spewed arge amount of blood again as many of his bones were shattered and his internal organs were badly injured because of Instructor Mei Lan''s [Grinding Strike].
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy finally could no longer pretend not to recognize Elder Yang anymore as she shouted in a worried tone: "Xiao Hei~!"
She hastily ran toward Elder Yang while taking out a [Talisman of Regeneration] from her space pouch with her paw before throwing it on Elder Yang.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply as she suddenly grabbed the furry tails of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to not let her get closer to Elder Yang.
"Why, you fool? Why do you have to risk your life in order to save her? Is she really more important than your life?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shouted to ask Elder Yang with an aggrieved tone.
It would be a big lie if she did not feel jealous and heartbroken by Elder Yang who was willing to risk his life to save Rongrong.
Elder Yang smiled helplessly when he saw Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and exined to her since he knew what he did surely hurt Tang Li Xue''s feelings: "I am really sorry, Xiao Bai, but I have to save Rongrong. I owe her too much."
Tang Li Xue immediately understood Elder Yang''s reason for risking his life to save Rongrong.
She had already known some of Rongrong''s kindness to Elder Yang after reading Rongrong''s description with her basic [All Knowing Eyes] before.
It was written in Rongrong''s description: ''If not for her yful nature, and she had given a lot of her cultivation resources to her beloved fiancee, she might have already reached the Nascent Soul Stage right now.''
In short, Rongrong should have already reached the Nascent Soul Stage if she had not given so many of her cultivation resources to Elder Yang before!
And that was just one of Rongrong''s kindnesses to Elder Yang... There should be many more that Tang Li Xue did not know.
Even though Tang Li Xue knew that, but it did not mean she could ept that his favorite concubine was risking his life to save another woman right in front of her eyes.
With her bright mind, Instructor Mei Lan could easily read the current situation, and she sneered coldly at Elder Yang.
"Sigh... Little Xue, you are so silly to fall in love with a human. That man clearly already has a beautiful fiancee with an extremely high status, so how could she like you wholeheartedly." Instructor Mei Lan sighed in a tone filled with disappointment.
Instructor Mei Lan''s words stabbed right at where Tang Li Xue''s painful point.
Elder Yang frowned deeply when he heard Instructor Mei Lan''s provoking words, so he hastily tried to exin to Tang Li Xue: "No, it''s not like that, Xiao Bai! I really like you the most, and I love you wholeheartedly. But I owe Rongrong too much, so I cannot let her die just like that right in front of my eyes."
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled while replying in mocking words: "What a big nonsense! You can risk your life to save that girl, but have you ever risked your life to save Little Xue? Never, right?"
Then Instructor Mei Lan whispered to Tang Li Xue: "Then how many times have you saved that guy''s life, Little Xue? Once? Twice? Has he ever had any thought to repay you, Little Xue?"
"Listen up, Little Xue. I never have any thought of preventing you from having any rtionship with humans, but this man is clearly a bast*rd who can only use any girls to reach his goal."
Instructor Mei Lan''s words threw Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy into great confusion.
Right at this moment, Bingbing and Silly Fox had also approached Instructor Mei Lan and Bingbing.
"So, you are a big bast*rd who tries to deceive my Xue?! How dare you?!" Silly Fox shouted angrily as he rushed toward Elder Yang in a great rage.
[Destruction Force] plus [Lightning of Destruction]~!
A dense ck lightning covered his entire body as he swung his palm onto Elder Yang!
Bybining two divine abilities into one, Silly Fox''s ck lightning of destruction bes several times more lethal!
Elder Yang swung his fist to face Silly Fox''s attack as his pitch-
ck spiritual energy formed a giant asura demon fist!
BAAAAAAANG~!
Elder Yang had already been badly injured by Instructor Mei Lan''s previous [Grinding Strike], so how could he withstand Silly Fox''s attack?!
He was thrown off a dozen meters and vomited out a lot of blood as Silly Fox''s [Destruction Force] and [Lightning of Destruction] were raging violently in his body.
"Hey, count me in too~!" Binging shouted as shepressed cold air in her mouth and blew it toward Elder Yang and Rongrong in his arms.
[Corrosive Ice st]~!
CLACKLE~! CLACKLE~! CLACKLE~!
Elder Yang and Rongrong were instantly covered in a thickyer of ice while the freezing cold power rapidly corroded their skin, muscles, bones, and internal organs!
At this rate, both Elder Yang and Rongrong might really get killed in only a few more moments under the merciless attacks of Silly Fox and Bingbing!
"No, stop it, you two~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her fangs, but she finally shouted to Silly Fox and Bingbing to stop them.
Even though she resented Elder Yang for risking his life to save and protect Rongrong who had already tried to catch and kill her before, but it did not mean she could just watch Elder Yang get killed right in front of her eyes without doing anything.
Both Silly Fox and Bingbing reluctantly stopped attacking Elder Yang and Rongrong, but they nced at Instructor Mei Lan instead.
They were waiting for Instructor Mei Lan''s further decision on whether they would kill Elder Yang and Rongrong or spare them.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy faced Instructor Mei Lan and begged her: "Instructor Lan, can you please just let them go?"
Instructor Mei Lan red at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy menacingly for a few seconds until Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could no longer bear it and lowered her head in guilt.
Instructor Mei Lan sighed helplessly since she knew that she could not just kill Elder Yang right in front of Tang Li Xue''s eyes.
"Little Xue, do you remember your promise to mest time?" Instructor Mei Lan took this chance to bring up Tang Li Xue''s promise to her.
Her previous promise was topletely sever her rtionship with Xiao Hei, and she would never meet, talk, or trust him anymore if he put any of their lives in danger.
Chapter 759 759: Separate Ways!
Chapter 759 Chapter 759: Separate Ways!
The body of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately stiffened when Instructor Mei Lan mentioned her previous promise.
Instructor Mei Lan pressured Tang Li Xue again by saying: "If not for that man''s fianc¨¦, your disguise would not have been blown, and we would not have fallen into such a dangerous situation where we had to run away from the Garden City before."
"Then you would not need to sneak back here. Even Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei would not fall into great danger because of it. I also would not need to pay so much in order to bring the Beast Tide to attack this city."
"To be honest, so many beasts and people would definitely die today because of your rtionship with that male human."
"It was all because you trust him too much and also because you previously saved his life which led everything to this oue."
"Little Xue, like I have already said just now... I never have any thought of preventing you from having any rtionship with humans, but your rtionship with that male human clearly endangered all of us."
"So, Little Xue... I can promise you that I will spare them, but can you also fulfill your previous promise to me?"
Instructor Mei Lan asked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a stern tone while she kept staring at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy menacingly.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was staggered slightly by Instructor Mei Lan''s hurtful words.
But after she thought it carefully for a while, all of Instructor Mei Lan''s words were actually correct...
"I..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered in hesitation.
Right at this time, the real Tang Li Xue suddenly told her suggestion to her perfect copy through their mind connection: ''Let''s just keep our promise to Instructor Lan.''
''What~?! Are you really sure? Do you know that it means we will not meet, talk, or trust our Xiao Hei anymore!'' The perfect copy asked the real Tang Li Xue in a shocked tone.
''So what?! That bast*rd still dares to save that crazy girl Rongrong right in front of us! You should know that I have already saved his life two times... No, it''s three times in total! I even remember that I have already spent two [Recovery Pills] and one [Substitution Doll] to save him before! He should still owe me three lives, but he actually dares to risk his life to save that crazy girl! I should just let him die back then!'' The real Tang Li Xue chattered and cursed in great rage.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "....."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was 100% sure that her real self was only throwing a momentary tantrum in a fit of anger right now.
If she really did as she promised to Instructor Mei Lan, the real Tang Li Xue would definitely regret itter after her anger subsided.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy waspletely different. She was still extremely calm. Maybe because she was only Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, so she looked at everything from the other perspective.
ording to her opinion, no one was actually wrong in this matter.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still decided to follow her real self''s wish in the end.
Her rtionship with Rongrong was hostile after all, Xiao Hei even risked his life to stand up and protect Rongrong right now, and there was no guarantee that he would not do it again in the future.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not even have any confidence that Xiao Hei would choose her if he had to choose between saving her life or Rongrong''s life.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shook her furry head to clear her mind.
''You are right. Our dream is to be a deity equal to our Uncle Sun or even surpass him. So, how could we stumbled by a mere concubine?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied to the real Tang Li Xue.
''Oh, what good words~! As I expected from my perfect copy~! You are absolutely right! Our dream is to be a deity, and we will travel around the sea of stars in the future! We definitely can find so many better concubinester, so who cares about a mere Xiao Hei~!'' The real Tang Li Xue replied while giving two thumbs up to her perfect copy.
How dare he risk the life she saved three times for another woman?!
A man like him really did not deserve to be her concubine at all!
Just give him away to Rongrong, and find another concubine!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used her [Energy Maniption] to create a white barrier and a set of white clothes.
Under the cover of a white barrier, she transformed back from her fox form to her human form and quickly wore white clothes before dispersing the white barrier.
After that, she stared at Instructor Mei Lan and nodded at her: "I understand, Instructor Lan. I will fulfill my promise to you."
Instructor Mei Lan smiled in satisfaction as she patted the shoulder of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gently and said: "Good~! Little Xue, you have to know that what I do is all for your own good."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy smiled back at Instructor Mei Lan before she walked toward the freezing Xiao Hei and Rongrong.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used her Profound Law of Heat to warm the Xiao Hei and Rongrong.
After the thickyer of corrosive ice shrouding their bodypletely melted and disappeared, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took out a [Talisman of Regeneration] and a[Talisman of Lesser Recovery] from her space pouch, then threw both of them to Xiao Hei.
Xiao Hei stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with a pair of eyes filled with gratitude and affection, then said gently in a delightful tone: "Thank you very much, Xiao Bai~!"
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied back to him with a cold and indifferent tone: "You do not need to thank me. This is myst help for you. From now on, we will beplete strangers."
The smile on Xiao Hei''s expression vanished as he frowned deeply and asked: "What do you mean by that, Xiao Bai?"
"It means I do not want to meet or talk to you anymore from now on. Do you get it? Oh, and never call me, Xiao Bai again. I really hate that nickname." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said with an increasingly cold tone.
really hate that nickname." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said with an increasingly cold tone.
Xiao Hei gnashed his teeth and asked in a tone filled with sorrow and helplessness: "Why? Is it because I saved Rongrong? Or because I did not say I already have Rongrong as my fiancee? Xiao Bai, listen to my exnation first, okay? I only want to..."
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately interrupted his words halfway: "I said never call me Xiao Bai again! And I do not want to hear any more of your nonsense."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took a deep breath and continued to say: "All of those matters are no longer important. I just think the rtionship between us is too bothersome, so I have decided to just sever it once and for all. You do not need to think about me anymore from now on, and you are free to marry anyone including your Rongrong."
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy turned around while muttering: "Goodbye... Elder Yang of Immortal Sword Sect."
"Wait a minute, Xiao Bai~!" Xiao Hei stood up as he stretched his hand to grasp the perfect copy''s hand.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy suddenly twisted her slender body and threw a heavy kick toward Xiao Hei''s abdomen!
BAAAAANGG~!
Xiao Hei was thrown off a dozen meters and rolled on the ground in pain while coughing a few mouthfuls of blood.
"Elder Yang, do you want to die so badly?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her pearl-white teeth and said coldly to Xiao Hei.
"Xiao Bai... Don''t go... I..." Xiao Hei still called Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy with great difficulty.
"You want to save your Rongrong, right? So, just lie there quietly until it is over." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gave herst warning to Elder Yang before she walked back to Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded while smiling in satisfaction at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and said to her three students: "Let''s go~! We will pick up Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei first before we get out of this ce."
Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Bingbing, and Silly Fox jumped onto the back of a huge white weasel.
The huge white weasel soared swiftly into the sky in a blink of an eye.
Under the guidance of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, it did not take long for them to find Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei who was still carried in the real Tang Li Xue''s arms.
The real Tang Li Xue also jumped onto the huge white weasel''s back with Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei in her arms.
The huge white weasel swiftly brought everyone and flew out of the Gu Family''s mansion.
Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei, or she could also be called Zhu Yan, loosened up her tense mind after she finally came out of the Gu Family''s mansion.
Without realizing it, Zhu Yan fell asleepfortably in Tang Li Xue''s warm embrace.
Tang Li Xue smiled gently as she silently created a transparent barrier with her [Energy Maniption] to protect the sleeping Zhu Yan from the violent wind caused by the swift flying speed of the huge white weasel.
Chapter 760 760: Elder Yang’s Life Or Death Situation!
Chapter 760 Chapter 760: Elder Yang''s Life Or Death Situation!
It waspletely a bloodbath on the Garden City''s every street.
Everyone in Garden City was fighting against the invading Beast Tide.
So many human and beast corpses were scattered everywhere.
Tang Li Xue immediately closed her topaz blue eyes as her expression turned paler after she saw such a tragic scene.
But she suddenly heard deafening soundsing from a distance.
When Tang Li Xue stared at the ce where the sound came from, she could see four giant False Spirit Beasts currently fighting fiercely against more than a dozen Nascent Soul Stage elders from afar.
Even the Garden City''s wall and a fifth of Garden City were razed to the ground by their fierce battle!
Despite having an overwhelming number, those more than a dozen Nascent Soul Stage elders clearly had a lot of difficulty standing against four giant False Spirit Beasts.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to watch the rare fierce battle between those powerful False Spirit Beasts and Nascent Soul Stage elders, but Instructor Mei Lan clearly would not agree since it was too dangerous.
The huge white weasel brought Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, Zhu Yan, and the others out of Garden City without facing any obstacles because both beasts and humans were too busy with their own battles.
.....
Meanwhile, Elder Yang''s situation was far from being as good as Tang Li Xue''s situation.
Even though Tang Li Xue had already used her [Talisman of Regeneration] and a [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] on him, and all of his injuries were recovering rapidly, but Rongrong''s condition was deteriorating rapidly instead.
"Xiao Bai..." Elder Yang murmured lifelessly in a great heartache.
But he immediately woke up from his daze as she quickly realized that this was not the time for him to dilly-dally around.
Elder Yang took out a healing pill from his spatial ring and hastily stuffed it into Rongrong''s mouth.
Unfortunately, Rongrong''s condition did not improve at all, but at the very least, her condition was no longer deteriorating further for now.
Rongrong''s injuries were actually not even nearly as bad as Elder Yang''s injuries, but Elder Yang''s injuries could still get better quickly because of Tang Li Xue''s talismans.
It was clear at a nce that [Talisman of Regeneration] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] from Tang Li Xue were very potentpared to any healing pill, except for [Recovery Pill] from her system.
"The protection formation of this Gu Family''s mansion has already been shattered, so it is no longer safe here. I have to go and find a safe ce to recover my injuries first before..." Before Elder Yang could finish his words several beasts nearby were already rushing toward him!
Elder Yang''s expression turned cold as he swung his palm to meet those several beasts!
[Heaven Splitting Wave]~!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Those several beasts instantly exploded into blood mist by Elder Yang''s powerful [Heaven Splitting Wave].
"Cough, cough, cough..." But Elder Yang''s injuries worsened slightly because of it, and he coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood.
After he climbed out from the big deep crater created by Instructor Mei Lan''s powerful 2nd echo attack with the fainted Rongrong in his arm, he saw so many beasts already invaded the entire Gu Family''s mansion.
All servants, maids, guards, chefs, and so on in his sight were killed and eaten by those beasts.
All of those beasts immediately sensed Elder Yang after he walked out from the big deep crater, and then they red greedily at him.
Elder Yangughed helplessly at himself and muttered in a sorrowful tone: "Ahahahaha~! Cough, cough, cough... I see, so this is my retribution."
GRRRR~! ROOOOAAARRR~!
Elder Yang put Rongrong on his back and tied her tightly with a cloth before saying coldly to all of those beasts: "Come here, you filthy beasts! I want to see which one of us will die first!"
The hundreds of beasts charged angrily toward Elder Yang at once!
If Elder Yang was in his prime condition, he could definitely defeat all of those beasts quite easily.
Unfortunately, he was truly in a really bad condition right now.
Instructor Mei Lan''s sound and vibration attack already shattered most of his bones and broke his internal organs.
Honestly, Elder Yang could only barely stand right now, and it was all still thanks to the amazing healing effect of Tang Li Xue''s talismans.
He might not even be able to wield 10% of his overall strength in his current condition, and every time he tried to fight, his injuries would worsen slightly, so how could he fight against so many beasts at once alone?!
This was also the reason why Tang Li Xue previously urged him to lie down until hepletely recovered.
But Elder Yang was drowned too deeply in sorrow and disappointment that he failed to realize Tang Li Xue''s hidden message in her words at that time.
Just when Elder Yang was already prepared to fight until hisst drop of blood...
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
All of the human and beast corpses that scattered on the ground suddenly stood up and attacked the army of beasts from behind!
There were also dozens of transparent flying ghostsing down to join the fight against the army of beasts!
"This is..." Elder Yang frowned and muttered in confusion.
Right at this moment, a ck gas flew down andnded right in front of Elder Yang.
Elder Yang''s expression turned very solemn as he immediately raised his vignce to the maximum because he sensed an extremely evil auraing from the ck gas.
The ck gas solidified rapidly and became a person wearing a hooded ck cloak.
The person in the hooded ck cloak chuckled and greeted Elder Yang politely: "It''s been a while, Teacher."
Elder Yang felt the sound of this man in a hooded ck cloak was quite familiar but he failed to recognize it, so he decided to ask: "Who are you?"
The person in the hooded ck cloak pushed away his hood revealing an extremely familiar handsome face.
"You are... Zhen''er?!" Elder Yang eximed in shock and surprise mixed with delight in his tone.
"Yes, teacher... It''s me, Ye Zhen." Ye Zhen smiled at Elder Yang.
"You damn disciple, so you are still alive! Why didn''t you contact me before?!" Elder Yang happily said to Ye Zhen.
"I am really sorry, teacher, but the matter is quiteplicated. This is not the right time and ce for us to discuss it since my technique will notst for long. Let''s quickly leave this ce first!" Ye Zhen urged Elder Yang.
Ye Zhen knew that Elder Yang''s condition was not good right now, so he grabbed Elder Yang''s shoulder and turned back into a ck gas before bringing Elder Yang and Rongrong to fly out of the Gu Family''s mansion safely.
If Tang Li Xue saw Ye Zhen''s current strength and mastery over [Death Revtion Sutra], she might drop her jaw in shock.
She only gave [Death Revtion Sutra] to Ye Zhen a few months ago, but his strength could actually catch up again with his previous strength before he got crippled by Mo Chonglin or even surpassed it.
It was scary to think that he could reach this point even without the help from the [Scepter of Disaster]...
If he has the [Scepter of Disaster] in his grasp, his current strength might be several times higher than his current self!
Ye Zhen did not bring Elder Yang out of the Garden City.
He only brought Elder Yang to the remote ce in the Garden City.
"This ce is..." Elder Yang muttered in a strange tone.
Ye Zhenughed and exined: "This is cemetery. It might be creepy, but believe me this ce is safe. No one wille to the cemetery at the time like this. My current power will also get much stronger in the ce like this."
"You current power... is really strange. Where did you get it?" Elder Yang asked curiously.
"Teacher, you do not need to worry. I get it from someone who is very kind like a goddess. She did not only save my life, but also give me a chance to be someone better." Ye Zhen replied in a tone filled with infatuation.
Elder Yang frowned deeply in worry since he was afraid that his disciple would be deceived by an evil person and practice an evil demonic technique that would make him fall under the control of that evil person.
Who knew that before Elder Yang could ask further about it, a transparent ck ghost suddenly came out from under his feet and grabbed away the fainted Rongrong tied on his back?!
Before Elder Yang could react, that ck ghost had brought the fainted Rongrong to Ye Zhen.
Elder Yang''s expression instantly turned cold as he asked Ye Zhen in a chilling tone: "Zhen''er, what do you mean by doing this?"
Ye Zhen smiled creepily at Elder Yang while replying to him: "I am really sorry to offend you, teacher. I have to admit that saving you before is only an ident since I did not want to see you die under those beasts. But my true target since the very start is this girl."
"Why are you targeting Rongrong?" Elder Yang asked again while silently looking for an opportunity to save Rongrong from Ye Zhen''s grasp.
Chapter 761 761: Ye Zhen’s High Quality Puppet!
Chapter 761 Chapter 761: Ye Zhen''s High Quality Puppet!
Ye Zhen''s smile became even colder as he replied: "Because she dares to hire assassins to kill my goddess!"
Elder Yang frowned while trying to say something to convince Ye Zhen: "Rongrong hire assassins to kill someone? Could you be wrong? With Rongrong''s status in Immortal Sword Sect, she did not need to hire assassins if she wanted to kill anyone. Any disciples or elders in Immortal Sword Sect will dly do it to please her."
But Ye Zhen shook his head and said: "It''s impossible for me to be wrong because..."
Several other ck ghosts suddenly flew out from the cemetery ground.
These several ck ghosts were surprisingly the assassins who tried to kill Tang Li Xue before.
What was even more surprising was that one of these several ck ghosts was actually Rongrong''s previous maid, Susu!
Several assassin ghosts began to point their finger at Susu and scolded her: "It''s her, Master! She was the one who hired us to kill that girl!"
Susu''s ghost got frightened, and she immediately shook her head while denying it: "No, it''s not me! I only do what my mistress told me to do!"
When Susu''s ghost saw the fainted Rongrong, she flew excitedly toward Rongrong and said: "Young Miss, please help me! Please tell them that you are the one who sent me to hire them!"
Ye Zhen waved his hand while leisurely saying: "All right, that is enough. Be quiet all of you!"
All of the ghosts instantly fell silent and lined up neatly beside Ye Zhen as if they werepletely controlled by Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen stared at Elder Yang again with the usual creepy cold smile on his pale handsome face and said: "Teacher, now you understand, right? I know this girl is your fianc¨¦, but she is definitely not a good person. If I do not do anything, my goddess''s life might be in danger in the future..."
Elder Yang interrupted Ye Zhen''s speech halfway by stating: "You do not need to worry about that. I will tell Rongrong to revoke the bounty to kill your... goddess, and I will also tell her to never touch your goddess anymore from now on. How about it?"
Unfortunately, Ye Zhen immediately shook his head to reject Elder Yang''s idea.
"I am really sorry, Teacher. But there is no guarantee that your fianc¨¦ would listen to your words." Ye Zhen replied to Elder Yang as he grabbed Rongrong''s neck and raised her up.
Ye Zhen gnashed his teeth as he shouted to Ye Zhen and tried to scare him: "Stop it~! Do you really know the consequence of killing her? She is the favorite great-granddaughter of Immortal Sword Sect''s old patriarch!"
"If you dare to kill her, you will not only be hunted by the Immortal Sword Sect, but they will surely put a high bounty for capturing and killing you. The entire cultivators in this Lightwind Continent would be your enemies! No matter where you hide or run, there will be many people who will hunt you down!" Elder Yang warned Ye Zhen in a stern tone.
But after hearing Elder Yang''s stern warning, Ye Zhen did not get scared butughed maniacally instead: "Pffft~! Ahahahahahaha~! So what?! Teacher, do you really think I am afraid of dying right now?!"
"I should have already died after leaving the Inheritance Ground Tablet. I am still alive right now because my goddess gave me a new life." Ye Zhen stated to Elder Yang in a cheerful tone as if he narrated the most exciting thing in his life.
But Ye Zhen immediately corrected it while grinning creepily at Elder Yang: "No~! It can be said that the old Ye Zhen is already died. The current me is no longer Ye Zhen. My name is Death Lord right now, and I will definitely protect my goddess regardless of the cost!"
Elder Yang sighed in disappointment at Ye Zhen''s attitude, and he scolded Ye Zhen coldly: "Ye Zhen, you are already insane. That goddess of yours might be an evil demon, and she should have already brainwashed your mind to be like this."
If Tang Li Xue heard Elder Yang''s words right now, she might punch him once more in anger and scold him in a greater rage: ''What do you mean I am an evil demon?! I am clearly a stunning and charming fox goddess, okay?!''
Fortunately for Elder Yang, Tang Li Xue was no longer there...
"Shut up~! Even though you are my former teacher, I would never allow you to bad-mouth my goddess!" Ye Zhen shouted back at Elder Yang in anger.
Ye Zhen did not want to talk with Elder Yang anymore as he red at the fainted Rongrong with menacing eyes.
Elder Yang realized that it would be impossible for him to convince Ye Zhen since he seemed to have alreadypletely lost his mind right now.
Of course, all of Elder Yang''s previous talks with Ye Zhen were actually not in vain.
It was Elder Yang''s way to stall for more time, so Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Regeneration] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] could heal more of his injuries.
Even though all of Elder Yang''s injuries still had notpletely recovered, but he could already at least exert around 25% of his overall strength.
Elder Yang dashed swiftly toward Ye Zhen to grab Rongrong back all of a sudden, but Ye Zhen had already long prepared for that.
Several skeleton hands popped out from the cemetery ground and grabbed at Elder Yang''s feet tightly!
"Get off from me~!" Elder Yang angrily bellowed as he used his strength to break free from all of the skeleton hands and kicked them away.
But several dozens of ck ghosts alreadypletely surrounded Elder Yang and rushed toward him from all sides!
More than one hundred skeletons also crawled out from the cemetery ground and charged toward Elder Yang from all directions too!
Their individual strength might be not high, but their number was overwhelming!
[Heaven Splitting Wave]~!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Elder Yang''s powerful attack easily knocked away all of the skeletons and ghosts in front of him.
But they immediately woke up and rushed fiercely toward Elder Yang again!
Ye Zhen''s army of ghosts and skeletons was surely harder to deal withpared to the army of beasts since they were fearless, tireless, and unkible under Ye Zhen''s control.
Ye Zhen no longer paid any attention to Elder Yang who was fighting fiercely against his army of ghosts and skeletons.
He suddenly stabbed his hand toward Rongrong''s chest and...
PUUUFFF~!
"NO, RONGRONG~!" Elder Yang shouted in an anxious tone with a pair of bloodshot eyes as he tried to condense [Asura Demon God''s Avatar].
However, Elder Yang could only barely condense a pair of Asura Demon God''s hands with his remaining spiritual energy and his current condition!
While Elder Yang was still trying his hardest to get rid of Ye Zhen''s army of ghosts and skeletons that kept attacking him ceaselessly, Ye Zhen had already pulled the beating heart from Rongrong''s chest!
Ye Zhen smiled creepily in excitement as he stared at Rongrong''s beating heart in his grasp.
Ye Zhen let one of his ck ghosts carry Rongrong''s body as Ye Zhen himself pasted several ck talismans onto Rongrong''s beating while reciting some kind of mysterious mantra from his [Death Revtion Sutra].
The several ck talismans slowly seeped into Rongrong''s beating heart.
After several ck talismans werepletely integrated with Rongrong''s beating heart, Ye Zhen stuffed the beating heart back into Rongrong''s chest and sealed the hole in her chest with another ck talisman.
Right at this time, Elder Yang finally managed to reach Ye Zhen and Rongrong!
"YE ZHEN~!" Elder Yang angrily shouted as he swung the Asura Demon God''s fist toward Ye Zhen!
BAAANG~!
Who knew that the fainted Rongrong suddenly moved, and she shed right in front of Ye Zhen, then she easily stopped Elder Yang''s Asura Demon God fist with one hand?!
"Hahahahaha~! Incredible~! What a wonderful puppet~! Such a high-quality puppet with unmatched cultivation talent is truly rare~!" Ye Zhen smiled creepily in satisfaction.
"Rongrong?!" Elder Yang tried to call Rongrong.
When Rongrong opened her closed eyes, her entire eyes had turnedpletely crimson without any white part on them just like demon eyes.
Rongrong red at Elder Yang coldly without any shred of her previous attachment.
Then Rongrong took out her sword from her spatial ring and shed mercilessly at Elder Yang with all of her strength!
[Torrential Sword sh]~!
BAAAAAANNG~!
Elder Yang tried to block Rongrong''s attack using his pair of Asura Demon God hands, but Rongrong''s [Torrential Sword sh] actually cleaved the Asura Demon God hands easily!
PUUUUFFF~!
Even Elder Yang''s chest also got shed by Rongrong''s sword energy leaving a deep and long wound on Elder Yang''s chest!
It was clear at a nce that Rongrong''s current strength had actually increased by many timespared to before!
Elder Yang''s condition instantly got worse as he received another serious injury on top of his previous injuries.
His consciousness turned blurry as he helplessly reached his hand toward Rongrong while calling her name: "Rongrong... I am really sorry..."
Elder Yang spurted out several mouthfuls of blood before hepletely fainted because of his serious wounds.
Chapter 762 762: Suspicious Yan’er!
Chapter 762 Chapter 762: Suspicious Yan''er!
Ye Zhen still smiled strangely as he approached the fainted Elder Yang.
"Hais, teacher... You are still as rigid as ever." Ye Zhen muttered while chuckling amusedly.
"Teacher, your cultivation talent and strength are also very admirable, maybe even surpassing your fianc¨¦. If I also make you into my puppet, the quality should exceed that of your fianc¨¦, right?" Ye Zhen asked the fainted Elder Yang.
"Isn''t that a great idea? You two, a pair of groom and bride will continue to be together forever... As my puppets of course~!" Ye Zhen muttered whileughing creepily.
Ye Zhen thought carefully about whether to make Elder Yang one of his puppets like Rongrong or not.
That idea might be very tempting, but Ye Zhen finally shook his head to reject it...
Different from Rongrong, Ye Zhen did not have any grievances with Elder Yang.
On the contrary, Ye Zhen really admired and idolized Elder Yang as his teacher before, while Elder Yang treated Ye Zhen very well like his close friend.
He might not be the previous righteous Ye Zhen anymore, but it did not mean he would lose his bottom line.
The current Ye Zhen may be extremely eager to obtain greater strength in order to be someone worthy of Tang Li Xue, but he does not want to be a viin that Tang Li Xue can no longer recognize.
Ye Zhen sighed as he covered his face with his ck hood while saying to the fainted Elder Yang: "You are so lucky to meet me, Teacher. You would surely be a corpse if no one helped you before."
All of the ck ghosts in the cemetery flew and entered Ye Zhen''s body as Ye Zhen''s body transformed into a ck gas.
Before Ye Zhen flew away from there, he muttered again to Elder Yang: "Goodbye, teacher~! I am ready to ept your vengeance or whatever it woulde, but I hope you will never touch my goddess or be her enemy. If that really happens, I will never show any mercy to you againter."
Ye Zhen immediately retreated away from Garden City, leaving only the fainted Elder Yang alone in the gloomy cemetery.
.....
The war between Beast Tide and human cultivators was still raging fiercely in the Garden City, but Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, Zhu Yan, and others were no longer there.
After a few hours of fast flight, they also bid their farewell to the huge white weasel.
The huge white weasel flew back to its Beast Tide''s group that was still fighting in the Garden City, while Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the others continued their journey back to Myriad Foxes Academy with their Wind Riding Birds.
Their tense mood also finally loosened after they went so far away from the Garden City.
Bingbing was the first one whoined: "Uwaaahh, we can finally go back home~! This S-grade difficulty urgent mission feels very long and difficult!"
Tang Li Xue still felt very guilty about what she had done before, so she decided to apologize to everyone: "I am really sorry, everyone! This is all my fault."
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and said coldly: "It''s good if you realize it. If not for your rtionship with that male human, our mission probably would not be as difficult and dangerous as now! Don''t think I will spare you from punishment just because you apologize to everyone. You better prepare yourself before we go back to Myriad Foxes Academy!"
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered in fright when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
She did not even dare to think about the punishment Instructor Mei Lan would give herter.
Silly Fox immediately tried to defend Tang Li Xue by saying: "Instructor Lan, Xue did it for our own good, so how could you still punish her for it? If you want to punish Xue, then please give her punishment to me instead!"
Bingbing also added fearlessly: "That is right~! Instructor Lan, if you want to punish our Little Xue, then you have to punish us first!"
Instructor Mei Lan sneered at the two of them instead while asking: "You two? You two have not even finished the previous punishment! Since you really like to be punished, then I will increase your punishment by ten times! If you two can survive, I will consider transferring Little Xue''s punishment to any of you."
Bingbing: "....."
Silly Fox: "....."
Both Bingbing and Silly Fox immediately became speechless by Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly as she thought in pity: ''They would surely crumble apart first before they can evenplete their punishment if it was like that.''
Right at this time, Zhu Yan who just woke up suddenly interfered with their conversation by saying in a tone filled with guilt: "Brother Feng''s teacher, please don''t me Brother Feng. This is all actually my fault. If I had not been so stubborn and trusted Gu Shengxin so much before, all of these would not have happened."
Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to even talk or take a nce at Zhu Yan.
Some people said that idiocy might be contagious.
Even though there was no proof of it yet, but Instructor Mei Lan clearly did not want her IQ to be affected by talking with someone idiot like Zhu Yan.
She might care enough to wake up Tang Li Xue from the dreamy interracial romantic rtionship with a male human because Tang Li Xue was her favorite student, but she would never care about the other beast''s stupidity.
If it was not for Miss Bookkeeper who forced her and her three students to carry out this S-grade difficulty urgent mission, Instructor Mei Lan would definitely never have taken this troublesome mission!
Zhu Yan felt really aggrieved by Instructor Mei Lan''s cold treatment, so she hugged Tang Li Xue''s arm instead while muttering coquettishly: "Brother Feng... Everyone must be mad at me, right?"
Tang Li Xueughed at Zhu Yan while patting her head gently andforted her: "Of course not. Everyone just feels too tired today. I am sure they will greet you kindly tomorrow."
Bingbing and Silly Fox secretly rolled their eyes, but they did not bother to say anything to ruin Tang Li Xue''s effort to coax Zhu Yan.
Tang Li Xue decided to take this chance to tell Zhu Yan the truth: "I am sorry, Yan''er. But I am not Brother Feng Bai. My real name is Tang Li Xue, and I am actually a female fox."
Tang Li Xue thought that Zhu Yan would certainly throw a tantrum again after she told her the truth, but out of her expectations, Zhu Yan actually epted it calmly.
"I understand, Brother... I mean Sister Xue. You disguised as Brother Feng Bai to save me from Gu Shengxin before, right?" Zhu Yan nodded at Tang Li Xue while smiling brightly in understanding.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief as she felt Zhu Yan surely had grown up a lot after the previous incident.
Tang Li Xue also smiled gently at Zhu Yan as she caressed Zhu Yan''s head softly.
Zhu Yan narrowed her eyesfortably at Tang Li Xue''s caress, while Bingbing and Silly Fox red sharply at Zhu Yan with great envy and jealousy.
When the sun had set and the skies turned dark, the heavy rain began to fall as blinding lightning shed from time to time.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The rumbling sounds of thunder echoed through the skies.
Instructor Mei Lan decided to bring her three students and Zhu Yan to rest in the nearby town''s inn tonight.
There was a restaurant on the first floor of the inn, so they ordered some food and tea there.
After they ate until they were full, Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox went straight into their respective room to rest.
However, Zhu Yan still wanted to talk longer with Tang Li Xue, so Tang Li Xue could only helplessly bring Zhu Yan into her room.
But who knew that after Tang Li Xue let Zhu Yan enter her room, she suddenly took something out of her space pouch?!
When Tang Li Xue smelled the strange scent of Zhu Yan''s scented sachet, she instantly felt very sleepy, and her entire body also felt very weak all of a sudden!
The two powerful bloodlines in Tang Li Xue''s body, [Imperial Moon Fox] and [Pure Sun Dragon], were immediately working to nullify it!
Unfortunately, Zhu Yan reacted faster as she took out a Spirit Sealing Rope from her space pouch before Tang Li Xue couldpletely recover!
The Spirit Sealing Rope tied Tang Li Xue''s entire slender body in only a blink of an eye!
Zhu Yan pushed the tied Tang Li Xue onto the bed while she jumped andy right beside Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she asked Zhu Yan in a suspicious tone: "Yan''er, what do you mean by doing this to me?"
Chapter 763 763: Magical Potion!
Chapter 763 Chapter 763: Magical Potion!
Zhu Yan was caressing Tang Li Xue''s stunningly beautiful face with her slender finger while staring at Tang Li Xue with an infatuated expression.
After admiring Tang Li Xue''s peerless look for a few moments, Zhu Yan sighed while muttering to Tang Li Xue in a tone filled with regret: "I am very sorry, Sister Xue. But I really prefer my Brother Feng. I have fallen in love with my Brother Feng too deeply."
Tang Li Xue still did not clearly understand Zhu Yan''s words, so she tried to ask Zhu Yan again: "Err, thank you very much, Yan''er... But can you please release me now? I like you very much too. You can call me whatever you like. I do not mind if you always call me Brother Feng from now on."
But Zhu Yan shook her head instead and said to Tang Li Xue in a solemn tone: "You are wrong, Sister Xue. I do not just want to call you Brother Feng, but I really want you to be the real Brother Feng."
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Tang Li Xue tilted her head while frowning deeply as she became even more confused by Zhu Yan''s words.
Zhu Yan smiled brightly when she saw Tang Li Xue''s very cute confused look.
Then Zhu Yan took out a transparent potion bottle from her space pouch and showed it to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue suddenly had a bad feeling after she saw the gray-colored liquid inside the transparent potion bottle.
Zhu Yan immediately exined to Tang Li Xue before she could ask: "This potion is called Yin Yang Reversing Potion. It is not hard to make it, but Yin Yang Reversing Grass is really rare and very hard to find."
"The main function of this Yin Yang Reversing Potion is to switch the gender between male and female, so if any male creatures consume it, they would change to female, and if any female creatures consume it then... Brother Feng, you should already understand, right?" Zhu Yan smiled tenderly at Tang Li Xue as she concluded her exnation.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered violently after she heard Zhu Yan''s exnation.
"Wha... What?! Let''s calm down first, Yan''er~! I... I have to think about it carefully, first..." Tang Li Xue anxiously said to Zhu Yan.
Tang Li Xue certainly felt afraid, but she also felt extremely curious about changing her gender with the Yin Yang Reversing Potion.
She really wanted to feel what it was like to be a man, but her preference was stillpletely straight.
If she could not turn back into a female againter, she would never dare to try it.
As if Zhu Yan could read Tang Li Xue''s thoughts, she immediately added: "Brother Feng, you can only change your gender once by drinking this Yin Yang Reversing Potion. It is impossible to change your gender back by drinking it twice."
"Oh, really? Then let''s just forget it! I... I still like being a female fox very much." Tang Li Xue instantly rejected Zhu Yan''s offer to drink the Yin Yang Reversing Potion without any hesitation.
Who knew that Zhu Yan did not bother to hear Tang Li Xue''s rejection at all as she grabbed Tang Li Xue''s soft cheeks and forcefully pried open Tang Li Xue''s mouth while saying: "Don''t worry, Brother Feng. I will surely take full responsibility by marrying you! We will definitely live happily together forever!"
Tang Li Xue tried to break free from Zhu Yan''s Spirit Sealing Rope in panic, but her body felt really weak since all of her strength and divine abilities werepletely sealed by the Spirit Sealing Rope.
Tang Li Xue actually still had many ways to escape from Zhu Yan''s Spirit Sealing Rope, but her mind was too chaotic to think about it clearly right now.
"Uuurmmpphh~! No~! Heeeeellllppp~! I don''t want to be a man!" Tang Li Xue turned her face away while shouting for help.
"It is futile. I have already set a soundproof array around us beforehand. No matter how you shout or scream, your voice will not be heard by others." Zhu Yan stated as she stared at Tang Li Xue with a pair of possessive eyes and a scary smile.
At thest moment when Zhu Yan almost shoved the potion bottle into Tang Li Xue''s mouth, Tang Li Xue''s mind finally thought of a way out for herself.
Didn''t she only need to release Yaya out of her System''s pet space to help her out of this situation?
BAAANG~!
But before Tang Li Xue could do it, Instructor Mei Lan suddenly kicked open the door of her room and quickly took away the Yin Yang Reversing Potion from Zhu Yan''s grasp before she could forcefully feed it to Tang Li Xue.
Then Instructor Mei Lan pushed away Zhu Yan from Tang Li Xue before releasing Tang Li Xue from the Spirit Sealing Rope.
With her sound and vibration divine abilities, Instructor Mei Lan should have been able to sense that something was not right in Tang Li Xue''s room, so she immediately came and checked it.
Tang Li Xue stared at Instructor Mei Lan with a pair of teary eyes, but before she could tell andin to Instructor Mei Lan...
BAAANG~!
Instructor Mei Lan knocked her head hard with her fist!
"Ouch~! Instructor Mei Lan, why..." Tang Li Xue whined in a pitiful tone to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes at Tang Li Xue while saying: "You are clearly many times stronger than her, so how could you be forced into this situation by her?!"
"That is... because I lower my guard down..." Tang Li Xue murmured softly while blushing in great embarrassment.
"You are lucky that she did not want to kill you. If not, your life would have been in great danger just now." Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue in a stern tone.
But Tang Li Xue actually was not really afraid that someone would kill her in that way since she has a lot of life-saving divine abilities and even two [Substitute Dolls].
Unfortunately, that Yin Yang Reversing Potion was apletely different matter!
It was not poison, so Tang Li Xue really doubted that her two powerful bloodlines or [Sun And Moon Aegis] could nullify its effect.
Even her life-saving divine abilities and two [Substitute Dolls] would probably be useless to stop the effect of Yin Yang Reversing Potion.
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Zhu Yan and told her in a cold tone: "You can go back to your own room right now. Oh, I will confiscate this potion for now."
Zhu Yan pouted as she felt very disappointed at her failed n.
"See you tomorrow, Brother Feng~!" Zhu Yan said to Tang Li Xue as she could only go back helplessly to her own room for now.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered again when she saw Zhu Yan''s calm expression.
Tang Li Xue dared to bet that Zhu Yan should have more Yin Yang Reversing Potion in her space pouch since she was still so calm after Instructor Mei Lan confiscated her Yin Yang Reversing Potion.
Tang Li Xue immediately decided that she would raise her guard towards Zhu Yan to the maximum from now on.
When Tang Li Xuey down on her bed to sleep, she was still thinking about what if she had her perfect copy consume that Yin Yang Reversing Potion instead.
Would that mean she could feel what it was like to be a man through her perfect copy?
If she used her [Twin Moons] divine ability to un-summon and re-summon her perfect copy again, would the gender of her perfect copy still be male, or would she turn back to female?
Tang Li Xue fell asleep after she thought many things about it.
On the next morning, their group rushed back as quickly as possible to Myriad Foxes Academy.
Not only did Tang Li Xue who had [Extrasensory Sense] and [Paranormal Intuition], but even Instructor Mei Lan also had a faint sense of foreboding that something bad would happen really soon.
Their group rushed non-stop at their full speed day and night.
If their Wind Riding Birds were tired, they would let them rest in their medium-rank space pouch and ride Instructor Mei Lan''s flying disc treasure instead.
Even though the distance from Myriad Foxes Academy''s nearest space gate and the Garden City was quite far away, but Instructor Mei Lan''s team managed to reach it in only a few days of nonstop full-speed travel.
After they entered the space gate and came back to Myriad Foxes Academy safely, Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue finally sighed in relief.
Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue''s bad feelings were not wrong at all.
After Rongrong was turned into a living puppet by Ye Zhen, the entire Immortal Sword Sect immediately knew about it because Rongrong''s lifemp that was ced in the sect had suddenly died out!
The entire Immortal Sword Sect instantly boiled as the old patriarch became extremely enraged!
Chapter 764 764: Meet With Bookkeeper Again!
Chapter 764 Chapter 764: Meet With Bookkeeper Again!
The old patriarch and all of the Nascent Soul Elders of the Immortal Sword Sect immediately decided to perform a spell to see Rongrong''sst moments before she died to investigate who killed her.
They brought Rongrong''s extinguished lifemp to the enlightenment pool and began to cast the spell together.
Unfortunately, they could not see anything from the enlightenment pool''s reflection as if the truth was covered by ck fog.
Without any other choice, the old patriarch and all of the Nascent Soul Elders of the Immortal Sword Sect could only use theirmunication talismans to call the other righteous sects to investigate it.
It did not take long for them to get urgent news from Alchemist Sect that Garden City was actually being invaded by Beast Tide!
Moreover, the current situation in Garden City is extremely tragic.
The Beast Tide had already broken sessfully into the Garden City.
Countless people had died, and even more than a third of Nascent Soul Stage elders had been killed by the four False Spirit Beasts.
The old patriarch and all of the Nascent Soul Elders werepletely dumbfounded after they heard this news, and they immediately med Rongrong''s death on the Beast Tide.
Even though they still had some doubts since Beast Tide should not need to cover Rongrong''s death using some unknown means until they could not see Rongrong''sst moments with their spell, but this was clearly not the right time to think about it.
The old patriarch hastily dispatched more than half of Nascent Soul Stage elders of the Immortal Sword Sect to assist the Alchemist Sect, so they could drive away the Beast Tide from the Garden City.
If it was the other city, they might not really care if Beast Tide destroyed it, but Garden City waspletely different!
More than 60% of the pill materials such as herbs, fruits, flowers, and so on were supplied from Garden City.
When this Garden City fell under the Beast Tide, it means the Alchemist Sect would certainly be half crippled, since even the greatest alchemist would not be able to make any pills without materials.
Most of the cultivation pills in Lightwind Continent were actually bought from the Alchemist Sect.
All Human Race in Lightwind Continent would definitely be greatly affected if the Alchemist Sect could no longer produce any cultivation pills!
Thus this Garden City must be taken back from the Beast Tide as soon as possible no matter what happens!
Not only the Immortal Sword Sect, but even the other righteous sects and their affiliated sects also sent their Core Formation Stage elders and Nascent Soul Stage elders to reim the Garden City.
At this time, the Beast Race gloated over the Human Race''s failure to protect their life-blood important city, many of the Beast Race even sent more reinforcement to Garden City.
The war between the Human Race and the Beast Race instantly became even fiercer than before to the point that they would kill each other at sight!
Of course, that fierce interracial war in this Lightwind Continent did not affect Fox Race even a bit.
Other than secretly fanning the me of war from behind the scenes and providing a lot of crucial information to the other Beast Race, Fox Race did not send anyone to join the war.
After Instructor Mei Lan and her three students went back to Myriad Foxes Academy, Instructor Mei Lan immediately contacted the Bookkeeper with hermunication talisman.
Under the Bookkeeper''s instruction, Instructor Mei Lan only brought Tang Li Xue and Zhu Yan to meet the Bookkeeper while she told Bingbing and Silly Fox to go back first.
Tang Li Xue''s expression immediately turned dark and gloomy.
She really did not like the feeling when she met with the Bookkeeper.
If it was possible, Tang Li Xue really did not want to face the Bookkeeper anymore.
The bookkeeper was simply too outrageous and mysterious. A transcendent existence that far surpassed Tang Li Xue''s imagination.
Even right now, Tang Li Xue somehow could no longer remember the Bookkeeper''s look and figure anymore as if all the memories about the Bookkeeper slowly faded away from her memories.
Tang Li Xue could not even remember what she had talked to the Bookkeeper before.
While Tang Li Xue tried to recall her previous meeting with the Bookkeeper carefully, Instructor Mei Lan already led her and Zhu Yan to the library.
Instructor Mei Lan pushed open the double front doors of the library and entered the library with Tang Li Xue and Zhu Yan before the double front doors automatically closed again.
Zhu Yan instantly lost her courage the moment she stepped into the library, so she got closer to Tang Li Xue and held Tang Li Xue''s arm tightly.
Tang Li Xue did not have any time to care about Zhu Yan since she was also very nervous and afraid right now.
The interior of the library was as spectacr as before with the extremely vast space filled with so many tall bookshelves that contained hundreds of books on each of them.
After they walked deeper into the library and reached the center of the vast library, they finally saw a sexy beautiful foxdy in a ck formal Qipao dress sitting on the sofa while reading a book.
Her body posture and every gesture were noble and elegant like from an aristocratic family.
She has long straight gray hair tied in a ponytail. Even her fox ears and tails were gray colored.
The almost-forgotten image of the bookkeeper in Tang Li Xue''s mind resurfaced again after she saw the foxdy in front of her.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly as she thought in fright: ''What a fearsome monster...''
The Bookkeeper slowly closed the book in her grasp as she smiled kindly at Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and Zhu Yan.
Then her sight fell to Tang Li Xue as she said in an amused tone: "How rude~! Little one, how could you think of an elegant, charming, and beautiful fox like me as a frightening monster?!"
Tang Li Xue''s slender body instantly stiffened when she heard the Bookkepper''s words.
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
The extremely shocked Tang Li Xue instantly recalled what the Bookkeeper told herst time.
''Reading anyone''s mind is not difficult at all. There are many ways to do it without using any treasures or abilities. As long as we can read the other people''s body gestures, expressions, and eyes, we can easily read what was in their minds.''
Tang Li Xue could only put on a helpless smile and apologize to the Bookkeeper: "I am very sorry, Miss Bookkeeper. I really cannot control what I think..."
Instructor Mei Lan red at Tang Li Xue, but she did not dare to scold Tang Li Xue in front of the Bookkeeper.
But the Bookkeeper said to them in a gentle tone: "It''s all right. You will get used to it, and You will no longer be afraid of me."
The fear and nervousness in Zhu Yan and Tang Li Xue''s hearts instantly disappeared as they felt much more rxed.
They even felt a lot closer to the Bookkeeper as if they were her old friends.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized that this was the Bookkeeper''s ability since she had already tasted it thest time she came here, but she still had no way to prevent it until now.
The Bookkeeper took out another three teacups, put them on the table, and poured the tea in the teapot onto the three teacups while saying: "You all do not need to be so polite. I know you three just came back so you should be a little tired. Let''s sit and drink some tea first."
There was just no way for them to refuse the Bookkeeper''s words, so the three of them sat obediently on the chairs and drank the tea first.
Then the elegant Bookkeeper gave the Story Book to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan began to tell what had happened on their mission from the very start when she and her three students left the Myriad Foxes Academy together until they returned safely today.
Their surrounding scenery kept changing ording to Instructor Mei Lan''s story.
Zhu Yan dropped her jaw in shock, and she waspletely dumbfounded in amazement.
Even Tang Li Xue who had already seen it once before was amazed by it again right now.
After Instructor Mei Lan finished telling the story about their current mission, she gave back the Story Book to the Bookkeeper.
"I am sorry, Miss Bookkeeper. I have caused such a bigmotion at the Garden City." Instructor Mei Lan felt really guilty about it, so she apologized to the Bookkeeper sincerely.
But Bookkeeper chuckled while waving her hand leisurely and saying: "It''s all right. You do not need to think too much about it. Our Beast Race has already fought so many times against the Human Race. Causing a few more scuffles is nothing new."
Instructor Mei Lan sighed in relief after she heard the Bookkeeper''s reassuring words.
Then the Bookkeeper nced at Tang Li Xue and gave some advice to her: "Little one, you better hold back your little pet a bit from now on. It would be very bad and dangerous if the Human Race realized something about it."
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered slightly when she heard the Bookkeeper''s advice.
She still did not quite understand whether the Bookkeeper meant Little Loki or Yaya, but both Little Loki and Yaya''s origins were actually not good, so she really better hold both of them back to not do something excessive from now on.
Tang Li Xue nodded with a solemn expression and replied: "I understand, Miss Bookkeeper. I will keep an eye on them from now on."
Chapter 765 765: Troublesome Black Boxes!
Chapter 765 Chapter 765: Troublesome ck Boxes!
The Bookkeeper nodded in satisfaction after seeing Tang Li Xue''s obedient response.
Then the Bookkeeper finally stared at Zhu Yan.
"Hello, Miss Yan Fei. I really appreciate your eagerness to enjoy the world above the sea, but you better stop messing with the Human Race from now on, or our Fox n will not be responsible again for what will happen to you in the future." The Bookkeeper''s words might be polite with a kind smile on her elegant beautiful face, but the meaning of her words was to warn Zhu Yan sternly.
Fox n had sent their squad twice to help Zhu Yan out from the Gu Family.
The Bookkeeper meant there would never be a third time for their Fox n to save Zhu Yan, so if something like this happened again, their Fox n would no longer send any more foxes to save her.
Zhu Yan''s slender body shuddered slightly as she quickly nodded at the?Bookkeeper and said timidly: "I... I understand. I will not do it anymore."
The Bookkeeper nodded in satisfaction again since she could easily read that Zhu Yan''s words were really sincere.
The Bookkeeper could even see the rtionship between Tang Li Xue and Zhu Yan became really close and unusual after their mission at the Garden City, but the Bookkeeper did not really care about it.
Their Fox n was well-known for their beauty and charm, so having many admirers was nothing strange.
The Bookkeeper said to Zhu Yan again to ask for her opinion: "Miss Yan Fei, I can give you two options right now."
"The first option is to immediately send you back home tomorrow. Your father and your family should be really worried about your safety, so they should have already looking forward for you toe back home as soon as possible."
"The second option is to stay temporarily in this Myriad Foxes Academy. I will exin to your father and family that the war between the Beast Race and Human Race has be too fierce recently, and I cannot send you back yet."
"Which one do you choose?"
Zhu Yan''s eyes immediately became brighter in excitement as she hastily replied: "I choose the second option~! If it is possible, I also want to stay in the same room as my Brother Feng~!"
The expressions of Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan instantly changed before they hastily shouted in unison: "No way~!"
The Bookkeeper chuckled in amusement at them and stated: "Miss Yan Fei, you can stay as long as you want in Myriad Foxes Academy, and you can also stay at the same building as that little one, but you cannot stay in the same room as that little one."
Tang Li Xue had many secrets that no one should know, and the Bookkeeper also understood it better than anyone, so how could she allow Zhu Yan to stay in the same room as Tang Li Xue?!
Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan sighed in relief after they heard the Bookkeeper''s decision, while Zhu Yan deted a bit in disappointment.
Then the Bookkeeper stared at Instructor Mei Lan and gave her instruction to Instructor Mei Lan: "I will hand over the mission to escort Miss Yan Fei in Myriad Foxes Academy to your team. Don''t worry, you will not work in vain. I will ask for more rewards from her parents and transfer all of them to youter."
Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan were very unwilling at first, but they instantly changed their attitude after the Bookkeeper mentioned more rewards would be given.
"Don''t worry, Miss Bookkeeper~! You can leave her to me!" Instructor Mei Lan replied firmly without any hesitation.
"All right, that''s all. I know you are all tired, so you can go back and rest now." The Bookkeeper bid her farewell to them and went back to leisurely read her book while drinking her tea.
Tang Li Xue, Zhu Yan, and Instructor Mei Lan bowed their heads to the Bookkeeper and headed out from the library.
After they went out of the library, the double front doors automatically closed just like before.
Tang Li Xue did not immediately go back and stared at the double front doors.
The double doors actually faded away right in front of Tang Li Xue''s eyes as if it were only an illusion!
But with Tang Li Xue''s ring ne, she should bepletely immune to illusion, so the only exnation was the double doors really disappeared.
The library in front of Tang Li Xue was apletely different library with so many foxes who were working and reading inside it.
Instructor Mei Lan knew Tang Li Xue''s confusion, so she said: "Let''s go back, Little Xue! That library and its doors are clearly not something we can understand with our current level of strength."
Instructor Mei Lan went with Zhu Yan to register her identity as a temporary guest at the registration hall while Tang Li Xue returned to the residential building and went back into her room.
Tang Li Xue was really tired after rushing back to Myriad Foxes Academy without any rest in these few days to avoid getting dragged by the whirlpool of interracial war between the Beast Race and Human Race outside, so she fell asleep almost immediately on her soft bed.
On the next day, Tang Li Xue did not go to ss since Instructor Mei Lan already stated that she had given them one day off to rest yesterday.
Tang Li Xue took all the ck boxes she had stolen from the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse from her space pouch.
These ck boxes were made from mysterious materials. Their hardness might surpass many spirit treasures, and even several mysterious formations were carved on their surface to act as the lock.
Tang Li Xue had already tried to touch one of these ck boxes, but her hands were electrocuted by the mysterious formations engraved on them instead.
Tang Li Xue tried many ways to pry open them, but they were all in vain.
"These damn boxes~!" Tang Li Xue cursed unhappily as she kicked one of the ck boxes, but her feet got electrocuted instead, and she almost slipped and fell down.
It was not impossible for Tang Li Xue to forcefully open them for example by slowly melting them using her me of Pride, but she was really afraid that she would ruin the contents of these ck boxes by doing that.
Tang Li Xue sat on the soft sofa while trying to think hard to find the solution to this problem.
"It seems I can only ask for Teacher Li Wei''s help. He is the talisman master, so he should have a way to crack open these ck boxes." Tang Li Xue murmured hesitantly.
She was actually a bit unwilling to ask for Teacher Li Wei''s help since she had already owed him several requests.
She was afraid that Teacher Li Wei would force her to sell herself cheaply if she owed too much to him.
If Teacher Li Wei knew what Tang Li Xue thought right now, he would surely pull and twist her fox ear, then scold her in anger: ''You immature fox brat, how dare you think of me so lowly like that?!''
Tang Li Xue put back all the ck boxes in her space pouch as she finally decided to ask for Teacher Li Wei''s help again.
Even though she was reluctant to do it, she had no choice but to do it right now since the resources inside these ck boxes were really needed if she wanted to evolve into a Rare-Grade beast or Beast Lord.
Tok~! Tok~! Tok~! Tok~! Tok~!
Before Tang Li Xue came out of her room, someone actually knocked on the door of her room from outside right at this moment.
Tang Li Xue swiftly tidied up her messy appearance since she just tinkered with those ck boxes and got electrocuted many times some time ago.
After making sure that she looked stunningly beautiful as always, she decided to open the door of her room.
Who knew that Zhu Yan was the one who knocked on the door of Tang Li Xue''s room?!
Tang Li Xue almost wanted to close the door of her room again in reflex.
"Brother Feng, I make a delicious braised fish stew for you~! Pleasee and try it~!" Zhu Yan excitedly said as she stepped closer to Tang Li Xue while holding a te of delicious-looking braised fish stew in her grasp.
"Come, Brother Feng~! I will feed you, aaaahhh~!" Zhu Yan urged Tang Li Xue as she held a pair of chopsticks, picked up the braised fish on the te, and shoved it toward Tang Li Xue''s mouth.
Tang Li Xue did not immediately open her mouth to taste it.
She stared at Zhu Yan and asked first in a suspicious tone: "Yan''er... You did not put anything strange in this food, right?"
Zhu Yan: "....."
"Don''t worry, Brother Feng! How could I do something like that?!" Zhu Yan said after a few moments of silence.
Tang Li Xue red at Zhu Yan with a pair of eyes filled with suspicion.
Then she used her [Twin Moons] divine ability to summon out her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue pushed her perfect copy forward toward Zhu Yan while saying in a convincing tone: "Look here~! Yan''er make us a te of delicious braised fish stew! Unfortunately, I have a stomachache right now, so you lucky guy, I will let you taste it first!"
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes disdainfully instead and replied: "You should know that our mind is connected with each other, right? Do you really think you can lie to me?"
"Brother Feng, how can you not believe my words anymore?" Zhu Yan muttered sadly with a pair of tearful eyes.
Tang Li Xue felt a bit guilty, so she took a te of delicious-
looking braised fish stew from Zhu Yan whileforting her: "Ahahaha... Yan''er, how could I not believe your words anymore?!"
Then she shoved the braised fish stew onto her perfect copy while scolding her: "Eat it now~! How could you waste Yan''er''s good feelings by making this food for you?!"
But her perfect copy resisted and pushed it back in anger: "Then you can take a bite first! It''s useless to force me to eat this! I still want to be a female fox! She clearly made it for you! So, you should eat it!"
Chapter 766 766: Lightning VS Darkness!
Chapter 766 Chapter 766: Lightning VS Darkness!
After having a yful quarrel with her perfect copy, Tang Li Xue decided to leave her perfect copy at home, while urging her perfect copy to keep diligently practicing the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] at home.
It was truly hard to practice this [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] outside since she would definitely trigger a conspicuous phenomenon involving the Profound Law of Heat and Cold.
Previously in Garden City, Tang Li Xue even needed to spend her cultivation stones to rent a cultivation cave in order to practice [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] peacefully.
As for practicing thebination of [Essence Devouring Technique], [Art of Concealment], and [Energy Maniption], she could do it anywhere, so it was not that urgent.
The Profound Law of Heat and Cold from [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] was closely rted to thepletion degree and the might of her domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], so she would rather choose to focus on it instead of practicing the other techniques or divine abilities at this time.
Zhu Yan still pestered Tang Li Xue to stay with her and brought her to y around in this Myriad Foxes Academy, but Tang Li Xue hastily slipped away from her with an excuse that she had something really important to do today.
Tang Li Xue really did not lie since she had to find Teacher Li Wei and ask for his help to open her ck treasure boxes as soon as possible today because she, Bingbing, and Silly Fox would need to face Instructor Mei Lan''s harsh punishment after the ss ended tomorrow.
When Tang Li Xue was walking on the street leading to the Education Department Building, her topaz blue eyes were attracted to the huge holographic screen on the top of the tall building at the center of the city that broadcasting the battle in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
The battle of the Foxes Hunting Festival had already reached its peak.
It was actually the semi-final battle between Lei Qian''er fighting against the ck-haired heroic girl!
It could be said their battle represents two opposite factions in Fox n.
Lei Qian''er represents the Tu Shan Faction, while the ck-haired heroic girl represents the Qing Qiu Faction.
Almost all of the foxes including Tang Li Xue thought Lei Qian''er might have a fierce battle against the ck-haired heroic girl, but she would definitely win this battle in the end.
Then Lei Qian''er would face the almighty Heaven''s Favored Child of the Fox n, Meng Yue, just like in the previous Foxes Hunting Festival.
But the result of this battle was actually beyond everyone''s expectations.
.....
Both Lei Qian''er and the ck-haired heroic fox girl were shing fiercely in the sky with astonishing power and speed!
Even though both of them were still in their human form and could only wield a third of their overall strength, but the strength they showed right now was still astounding.
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Lei Qian''er''s three-colored lightning Kirin already merged with her body as she entered her [Perfect Infusion Mode].
A pair of three-colored lightning wings was formed on her back, and she was also holding a bolt of three-colored lightning like a spear.
She truly looked like a goddess of lightning right at this moment.
[Thunder God''s Incarnation]~!
By using her connection with her [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain], a huge pir of three-colored lightning was suddenly striking down toward the ck-haired heroic girl.
But the ck-haired heroic girl immediately unleashed her [Night Shadow Domain], and the pitch-ck curtain covered Lei Qian''er''s extremely destructive [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain]!
Lei Qian''er''s [Thunder God''s Incarnation] suddenly disappeared as if it was swallowed by the pitch-ck curtain of darkness.
The ck-haired heroic fox girl sneered at Lei Qian''er as she muttered at Lei Qian''er with a smug tone: "You are certainly quite strong, but I have to say sorry. Because your era is already over."
"Oh, really? Then is it your Qing Qiu Faction''s era right now?" Lei Qian''er replied in an amused tone.
The ck-haired fox girl shook her head.
Then the ck-haired fox girl sneered even more creepily as she said: "Nope, this is MY era~!"
Right at this moment, the ck-haired fox girl suddenly made a grabbing and pulling gesture with her slender hand.
BAAAAAAAANNGG~!
Lei Qian''er''s earth-shattering [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain] was forcefully shattered apart by the ck-haired heroic girl with her strange [Night Shadow Domain]!
"Puff~!" Lei Qian''er fell down from the sky and spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood.
Lei Qian''er gnashed her pearl-white teeth as she still refused to give up, so she hastily tried to form her [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain] again.
Strangely, Lei Qian''er seemed to have forgotten how to use her [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain] all of a sudden at this time!
"What are you looking for, my dear? Is it this?" The ck-haired heroic girlnded right in front of Lei Qian''er while showing pitch-dark lightning in her grasp.
"That is..." Lei Qian''er murmured as she stared at the ck-
haired heroic girl in disbelief since she actually sensed an extremely familiar aura from the pitch-dark lightning shown by the ck-haired fox girl to her.
"That''s right~! This is yours before, but it is mine right now~! Let''s see... what did you call it before, [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain]?" Lei Qian''er asked in a teasing tone.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The ck-haired fox girl''s [Night Shadow Domain] gradually transformed as it became identical to Lei Qian''er''s [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain], except for its pitch-ck color, not Lei Qian''er''s usual three-colored lightning domain!
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The pitch-ck lightning in the dark sky struck Lei Qian''er''s body!
.....
"Sister Qian''er~!" Tang Li Xue muttered in an agitated tone as she grasped her fist in frustration when she saw Lei Qian''er continuously tortured by the ck-haired fox girl on the huge holographic screen.
After her Lei Qian''er''s [Heaven Destroying Lightning Domain] was shattered apart by the ck-haired fox girl''s [Night Shadow Domain], it seemed like Lei Qian''erpletely lost her power to fight back.
But what truly made Tang Li Xue really angry was that the ck-haired fox girl did not have any intention of finishing off Lei Qian''er right away and kept torturing Lei Qian''er using her pitch-ck lightning instead.
"That sick bast*rd~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in unbearable rage.
This battle was truly one-sided that itpletely shocked everyone who watched it.
In the end, the final match would be between Meng Yue and the ck-haired fox girl. Both of them were actually from the Qing Qiu Faction.
It was a huge upset for Tu Shan Faction indeed.
It would be normal for them to lose against the almighty Heaven''s Favored Child of the Fox n, Meng Yue, but losing to the ck-haired fox girl was apletely uneptable failure for Tu Shan Faction.
After torturing Lei Qian''er for around ten minutes, the ck-
haired fox girl finally got bored and decided to finish off Lei Qian''er using Lei Qian''er''s own signature move, [Thunder God''s Incarnation]!
Tang Li Xue raised her fist toward the huge holographic screen while muttering in a solemn tone filled with rage: "Someday, I will definitely defeat you. At that time, I swear I will make you pay a hundred times what you have done to Sister Qian''er!"
After realizing that all of the foxes on the street were staring at her strangely, Tang Li Xue lowered her fist and head as she blushed in embarrassment.
If not for her stunningly beautiful appearance, those foxes might have already said something to mock her.
Tang Li Xue quickened her steps to get away from there and reached the Education Department Building as soon as possible.
After she arrived at the Education Department Building, Tang Li Xue headed straight to Teacher Li Wei''s residence.
Unfortunately, Teacher Li Wei seemed to have activities outside right now, so he was not in his residence. Maybe he was currently teaching some lessons in the Education Department Building''s ss.
Tang Li Xue could only wait patiently right in front of the gate of Teacher Li Wei''s residence.
After waiting for a few hours until she felt a bit hungry, Teacher Li Wei finally came back to his residence.
"Hey, Little Lass?! You finally return! I thought you had already forgotten the way back to Myriad Foxes Academy, or you might get kidnapped by those assassins again!" Teacher Li Wei mocked Tang Li Xue in a yful tone.
"Good day, Teacher Li Wei! Hehehehe... I am just too busytely to carry out a really important urgent mission with Instructor Lan and my team." Tang Li Xue exined to Teacher Li Wei while smiling brightly at him.
"Okay, I understand. You do not need to exin it to me. So, what do you want from me now? Tsk~! I can already read you clearly like a book! You onlye here to look for me if you need something from me!" Teacher Li Wei said as he red at Tang Li Xue with a disgusted look.
Tang Li Xue did not mind Teacher Li Wei''s mocking him and still maintained her polite smile as she replied: "How could it be?! I came here because I really miss Teacher Li Wei and your inscription lesson~!"
Tang Li Xue tried to please Teacher Li Wei first to increase her sess chance to ask for his help.
Chapter 767 767: Asking For Teacher Li Wei’s Help!
Chapter 767 Chapter 767: Asking For Teacher Li Wei''s Help!
Unfortunately, Teacher Li Wei had already read Tang Li Xue''s intention since the very start, so he would not believe Tang Li Xue''s pleasing words so easily.
"All right, since you like my inscription lesson so much, then I will give it to you now! Let''s go~!" Teacher Li Wei said as he led Tang Li Xue into his residence.
Tang Li Xue instantly deted after she heard Teacher Li Wei''s words.
She did not actually want to take any inscription lesson today since she was very anxious to ask for Teacher Li Wei''s help to open the ck treasure boxes.
But it was already toote for Tang Li Xue to take back her words, so she could only obediently follow Teacher Li Wei into his residence and take his inscription lesson.
Teacher Li Wei brought Tang Li Xue into his study room and immediately checked how far Tang Li Xue''s inscription proficiency had improved by giving her a lot of tests.
Teacher Li Wei was very surprised when Tang Li Xue easilypleted all of his tests with almost perfect scores.
Tang Li Xue also secretly felt proud of her achievement, but it was actually not strange since her Inscriptionist level in her system window''s Sub-Profession column had already improved by one level after she got eliminated from the Foxes Hunting Festival.
Teacher Li Wei nodded in satisfaction before he patted Tang Li Xue''s head gently while praising her: "Good job, Little Lass~! Looks like I didn''t judge you wrongly. You really have high talent as an Inscriptionist! If you keep practicing diligently, you will definitely be able to be Inscription Master in the future."
After that, Teacher Li Wei took a few thick books from his space pouch and put them on the table in front of Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s smug expression immediately stiffened when she saw several books thicker than even her waists.
Teacher Li Weiughed at thepletely dumbfounded Tang Li Xue and began to exin.
"These books are about intermediate runes, how to engrave arrays on the nk treasures, and some basic knowledge about formations. This would be your next lesson from now on."
"Talisman papers could no longer hold the power of Intermediate runes or higher, so you have to engrave them on jade amulets."
"You should already know several runes can form an array, and several arrays can form a formation, right?"
"You can begin to learn how to engrave arrays on the nk treasures to create magic-grade treasures or even spirit-grade treasures."
"You can also begin to learn some basic knowledge about formations, so you can try to make some basic formations such as Basic Spirit Gathering Formation, Basic Protective Formation, and so on."
Teacher Li Wei fell silent for a few moments to give Tang Li Xue some time to digest the information he had just said to her.
"Really? Then how could I see some humans use advanced talisman paper in the Garden City before?" Tang Li Xue woke up from her daze and asked Teacher Li Wei.
Teacher Li Wei rolled his eyes and replied to Tang Li Xue: "It''s because they are not using ordinary talisman papers. They use Demonic Beast skin or even Beast Lord skin to make those advanced talismans. We clearly cannot skin our own race, so we can only use jade amulets as the recement."
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in understanding.
Using beast blood as ink to make talismans might be verymon since many beasts sold their blood to make money, but using beast skin as talisman paper was clearly taboo.
Of course, it did not mean that they were really not allowed to use advanced talismans made from the beast''s skin.
It waspletely fine for them to use those advanced talismans, but they were not advised to make the new advanced talismans from the beast''s skin.
The reason was because there were many advanced talismans sold by the Human Race, so anyone could easily buy and use them.
It did not make sense for the Beast Race to prohibit any beasts from buying those advanced talismans sold by the Human Race since they could use those advanced talismans to fight against the Human Race.
Just like a proverb, you can use your enemies'' weapons to kill themselves...
Tang Li Xue did not think too much about it, since many people donated or sold their blood to get some money in her previous world, but no one sold their skin.
Unknowingly, Tang Li Xuepletely immersed herself in Teacher Li Wei''s inscription lesson for almost a day until the sky turned dark.
After Teacher Li Wei ended today''s lesson, Tang Li Xue was alreadypletely exhausted, and her brain circuit almost got fried by the profundity of today''s inscription lesson.
Before Teacher Li Wei could throw her out of his residence, Tang Li Xue hastily took out several ck treasure boxes from her space pouch and showed them to Teacher Li Wei.
Teacher Li Wei frowned slightly while he observed the formations engraved on those several ck treasure boxes.
Tang Li Xue became even more nervous after she looked at Teacher Li Wei''s expression, so she impatiently asked: "How is it, Teacher Li? Can you crack the formations on these treasure boxes and open them?"
Teacher Li Wei red at Tang Li Xue and spoke in an unhappy tone: "I see... So, youe to look for me to open these treasure boxes for you?! Tsk, Little Lass, I know you will only look for me when you really need my help!"
Tang Li Xue blushed in embarrassment, but there was nothing she could say to refute Teacher Li Wei''s words.
Teacher Li Wei did not bother to bully Tang Li Xue further, so he examined the formations engraved on those several ck treasure boxes more carefully.
"The formations on these treasure boxes are quite advanced, so they are a bit difficult to crack. It is not impossible for me to crack and open them, but I might need some time to analyze them." Teacher Li Wei concluded after looking at the formations engraved on those several ck treasure boxes closely for a few minutes.
"How long?" Tang Li Xue hastily asked in an anxious tone.
If Teacher Li Wei said that he needed several years to crack them open, then Tang Li Xue would rather give up and choose to feed those ck treasure boxes to Little Loki.
Teacher Li Wei did not immediately answer but he stared at Tang Li Xue for a few moments and smiled strangely at her instead.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered slightly when she saw Teacher Li Wei''s strange smile, and she quickly had a bad feeling about it.
Tang Li Xue took a few steps back from Teacher Li Wei while hugging herself as if she were facing a big pervert and asking him in a suspicious tone: "Teacher Li, what do you want to do? I... I am sorry, but I am still too young for that~!"
Teacher Li Wei rolled his eyes and knocked Tang Li Xue''s head lightly while scolding her yfully: "What are you thinking, Little Lass?! Don''t forget that you still owe me two requests!"
Teacher Li Wei even took out the blood agreement written on the talisman paper from his space pouch and showed it to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly when she saw the blood agreement written on the talisman paper.
She really had the urge to snatch it away from Teacher Li Wei''s grasp and tear it away right now.
But if she did it, Teacher Li Wei would definitely not help her crack open those treasure boxes!
Teacher Li Wei could read Tang Li Xue''s concerns really well, so he exined to Tang Li Xue: "You do not need to worry. I only need a few days at most to crack open these treasure boxes, but you have to leave these treasure boxes in my ce in these few days."
Tang Li Xue immediately smiled brightly after she heard Teacher Li Wei''s words, but before she could be too happy, Teacher Li Wei added a few more words: "Of course, I will not do it for free! You still have to do something for me as the payment!"
Tang Li Xue sighed as she muttered: "I know that this definitely won''t be that easy. All right, what should I do for you as the payment?"
Teacher Li Wei chuckled as he exined to Tang Li Xue: "You should have still remembered about the map of the secret space I bought from the annual auction this year, right?"
Tang Li Xue nodded her head and replied: "Oh, the one you bought for more than a hundred billion credits, right?"
"I finally managed to crack that map of the secret space and found the exact location." Teacher Li Wei proudly told to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise and eximed in admiration: "Woah~! Really? Then does it mean you will get extremely rich if you manage to obtain all of the treasures in that secret space?!"
Chapter 768 768: Teacher Li Wei’s Request!
Chapter 768 Chapter 768: Teacher Li Wei''s Request!
But Teacher Li Wei shook his head and said in a frustrated tone: "It is not that easy. We still have to wait for the right time to open the secret space."
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment after she heard Teacher Li Wei''s reply.
"So, how long do we have to wait for that right time to open the secret space?" Tang Li Xue asked in a curious tone.
"Soon! The payment to open your treasure boxes is actually closely rted to this matter." Teacher Li Wei stated to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and asked cautiously: "So, does Teacher Li need my help to open the secret space? But I think my current skill and strength are still quite limited, so how could I help Teacher Li to open the secret space?"
Despite her words, Tang Li Xue still secretly hoped that the plot would go to something like only the beasts under Beast Lord level could enter the secret space.
Under the Beast Lord, Tang Li Xue was 100% sure that her current strength could be ced at the top.
However, Teacher Li Wei rolled his eyes disdainfully instead and uttered to Tang Li Xue in a mocking tone: "You really think too much of yourself! How could I need such a pipsqueak like you to open the secret space?!"
Tang Li Xue was instantly deted by Teacher Li Wei''s words.
Teacher Li Wei cleared his throat and began to exin it clearly to Tang Li Xue: "There will be a congrattion ceremony to celebrate about finding the secret space tomorrow. I need you to apany me to attend that congrattion ceremony as the payment to open those treasure boxes. How about it?"
"I just need to do that?" Tang Li Xue asked in disbelief.
Tang Li Xue was very surprised since the task was too easy for her to do.
Teacher Li Wei could easily guess what was Tang Li Xue thinking, so he immediately exined further: "If you think that task is too easy for you then you arepletely wrong. Do you remember Zi Yan girl you had met in the Inscriptionist Association before? She woulde too into this celebration ceremony!"
It took a while for Tang Li Xue to recall Zi Yan before she eximed in a yful tone: "I see~! So, you nned to use me as a shield again to keep that Zi Yan away from you~!"
Tang Li Xue instantly understood Teacher Li Wei''s intention this time since he had already done it once before.
Teacher Li Wei sighed as heined about his frustration to Tang Li Xue: "The matter about the secret space is too important because it involves an unimaginable amount of wealth and resources. Zi Yan''s older sister, Zi Hua holds great authority as Inscriptionist Association President. She would not let go of the chance to take a bite of this secret space."
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding.
It was not strange that many people would want to grab some benefits from this secret space.
That Zi Hua would definitely pushed Zi Yan to approach Teacher Li Wei in that congrattion ceremony, while Teacher Li Wei wanted to use Tang Li Xue as a shield to push away Zi Yan.
It seemed no matter if it was Human Race, Beast Race, or any other race, something like wealth and resources would definitely make anyone greedy.
Teacher Li Wei took out a light blue dress from his space pouch and gave it to Tang Li Xue while saying: "You can take this dress. That congrattion ceremony will be attended by many foxes with high authorities, so you have to make yourself more presentable in order not to embarrass yourself... and me."
Tang Li Xue shamelessly took the light blue dress from Teacher Li Wei.
Anyway, she would wear this dress to act as Teacher Li Wei''s shield, so there was no need for her to be embarrassed about taking it.
"This dress is actually a spirit treasure?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in astonishment as she caressed the light blue dress in awe.
Not only the light blue dress was very beautiful but it was actually a spirit treasure with more than 9 arrays engraved on it.
Moreover, the light blue color perfectly matched Tang Li Xue''s mesmerizing topaz blue eyes, and the size of the dress perfectly suited the size of her body.
Tang Li Xue suspected that Teacher Li Wei had already nned to use her as his shield in this congrattion ceremony long ago.
Even if she did note here to ask for his help, Teacher Li Wei would definitelye looking for her soon and use the previous two requests to force her to agree to do it.
After telling that Tang Li Xue had toe here again in the afternoon tomorrow, Teacher Li Wei finally let Tang Li Xue go back to her home and kicked her out of his residence.
The sky had long turned dark, so Tang Li Xue hurriedly returned to the residential building, but she did not immediately go back to her room.
Tang Li Xue went to the luxurious restaurant on the first floor and let Yaya out of her system''s pet space.
Both Yaya and Little Loki had helped her so much in the Foxes Hunting Festival, butpared to her bountiful harvests that improved her strength greatly, both Yaya and Little Loki did not get much in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
In the Garden City, Little Loki had also obtained bountiful harvests, and it even managed to empty the Gu Family''s entire treasury warehouse.
Tang Li Xue''s guilt for Little Loki had also faded away because of it, but she still had not found any way to make up for her guilt to Yaya until now.
Tang Li Xue could only treat Yaya to eat a lot of delicacies containing thick spiritual energy in this luxurious restaurant to temporarily ease her guilt towards Yaya.
As for where the pauper Tang Li Xue could obtain so many credits...
The previous S-Grade urgent mission might have been extremely difficult toplete, but the reward was actually very considerable.
There was no doubt that the resources in the sea were much richer than thend, so Zhu Yan''s father, as one of the Sea Beast Kings, was clearly an extremely rich guy.
For his favorite daughter, he did not hesitate to pay a high price for thisS-Grade urgent mission.
Even though Instructor Mei Lan grabbed 60% of the rewards, Bingbing and Silly Fox each only obtained 10%, while Tang Li Xue obtained 20% of the rewards, but it was still more than enough for Tang Li Xue to squander for a while.
After eating delicious foods until their stomach was about to burst, Tang Li Xue brought the bloated Yaya back into her room.
In the room space, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was still diligently practicing the Profound Law of Heat and Cold in [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] in the courtyard.
Half of the entire courtyard was covered by a thickyer of ice, while the remaining half was burned by the golden me of the sun.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to interrupt her perfect copy''s practice and entered the house with Yaya.
Yaya immediately fell asleep on the soft bed, but Tang Li Xue nned to practice making intermediate amulets instead tonight with the jade amulets given by Teacher Li Wei.
Unfortunately, the result was far from Tang Li Xue''s expectations, and she always failed because her mind was still upied with the Fallen Ancient Sect''s Secret Space.
Tang Li Xue bit the inscription pen in her grasp absentmindedly while muttering: "I really hope the star energies contained in the Gu Family''s treasures would be enough for me to evolve into a Rare-grade beast..."
"But if it is not enough, then it seems I can only rely on my connection with Teacher Li Wei to try to participate in the expedition of the Fallen Ancient Sect''s Secret Space."
"There should be enough precious treasures that contain star energies in the Fallen Ancient Sect''s Secret Space, right?"
Tang Li Xue could only put herst hope in that secret space if the Gu Family''s treasures was not enough for her to evolve into a Rare-grade beast.
After all, she had to umte more than 999 star energies in her body before she could evolve to [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox].
Although Tang Li Xue did not know for sure how many 999 star energies were, but those were surely an astronomical amount.
Since she failed to make any intermediate amulets after more than fifty tries, Tang Li Xue immediately decided to give up and practice thebination of [Essence Devouring Technique], [Art of Concealment], and [Energy Maniption] instead.
Tang Li Xue had a hunch that thebination of these techniques would surely be earth-shattering, not at all lost with [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form].
If she could perfectlybine and evenprehend the profoundw behind them, Tang Li Xue was 100% sure that the ability produced by them would be extremely powerful beyond everyone''s imagination.
Tang Li Xue had long been greedy for Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour], so she really hoped that she could create an extremely powerful technique with Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour] as the base prototype.
Of course, it was only a rough idea in her mind for now. It should be impossible for the current her to create a technique as powerful as Tao Tie''s signature divine ability, but no one could tell what could happen in the future, right?
Tang Li Xue did not know that her decision to practice thosebination techniques would be really useful soon enough.
Chapter 769 769: Fragility of the Heart!
Chapter 769 Chapter 769: Fragility of the Heart!
One night passed without Tang Li Xue realizing it.
When the sun rose and the sunlight passed through the closed window''s gaps in her room, Tang Li Xue could only end her practice since she had to go to Instructor Mei Lan''s ss this morning.
Tang Li Xue did not wake up the sleeping Yaya because she did not n to bring Yaya to Instructor Mei Lan''s ss today.
Anyway, there was still her perfect copy that kept diligently practicing the Profound Law of Heat and Cold from [Yin And Yang Chaotic Form] in the courtyard, so Tang Li Xue did not need to worry that Yaya would throw a tantrum if Yaya did not find her in this room spaceter.
After taking a quick bath, Tang Li Xue hastily went out of her room, but Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Zhu Yan... or she should be called Princess Yan Fei right now, were already waiting in front of her room.
Who knew that three of them immediately jumped at her at the same time after she opened the door of her room?!
Yan Fei: "Brother Feng~!"
Bingbing: "Little Xue~!"
Silly Fox: "Xue~!"
Tang Li Xue could only helplessly let Bingbing hold her left arm while Princess Yan Fei held her right arm.
As for Silly Fox, both Bingbing and Princess Yan Fei reacted faster than even Tang Li Xue and kicked him away before he could touch Tang Li Xue.
"You perverted Silly Fox~! How dare you want to take advantage of this situation and try to hug my Little Xue!" Bingbing mercilessly scolded Silly Fox coldly.
"All men are really scum~! My Brother Sheng is still a girl right now, so how could you dare to touch her?!" Princess Yan Feiined in a displeasure tone.
Silly Fox red at Bingbing and Princess Yan Fei in anger, but his expression changed into an innocent wronged expression when he faced Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue chuckled at the pitiful Silly Fox while thinking strangely: ''Wait a minute... Why the heck has our rtionship be so strange like this?''
''In the novels or animes, the only male in the group full of girls would be extremely popr, and all the girls would fight over to get him. Err, let''s see... If I am not wrong it should be called harem. Then why is the reality so far from that?'' Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly as she could only me her charm for being too strongpared to Silly Fox.
They did not fool around for too long and immediately headed toward the Education Building as quickly as possible.
They would have to ept Instructor Mei Lan''s punishment today, so if they dared toete, Instructor Mei Lan would definitely multiply their punishmentter.
Fortunately, they did not y around too much on their way, so they barely came in time to Instructor Mei Lan''s ss.
A few breaths after they entered the ssroom, Instructor Mei Lan arrived and called them out of the ssroom instead.
"Bingbing and Silly Fox, you two can go directly to the training room. You two mustplete 50,000 times of training sets or you two will not be allowed toe back home! Princess Yan Fei, can you please keep an eye on them, so they would not dare to ck off?" Instructor Mei Lan said to Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Princess Yan Fei.
"But, Brother Sheng is..." Princess Yan Fei murmured while staring reluctantly at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue patted Princess Yan Fei andforted her: "Don''t worry. I wille to see you soonter, okay?"
Princess Yan Fei could only follow Bingbing and Silly Fox ording to Instructor Mei Lan''s instruction, while Tang Li Xue nervously followed Instructor Mei Lan from behind.
Instructor Mei Lan actually led Tang Li Xue out of the Education Building.
Instructor Mei Lan took out a small disc from her space pouch and threw it on the empty ground in front of her.
The small disc suddenly erged, then both Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue rode on the top of it to the remote ce of Myriad Foxes Academy.
From the top of the disc-shaped flying treasure, Tang Li Xue saw a cave under the hill.
"That is..." Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan in a hesitant tone.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled while replying to Tang Li Xue in a yful tone: "That is your training ground."
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she felt a really bad feeling about this cave.
Instructor Mei Lan made her disc-shaped flying treasurend near the cave before exining to Tang Li Xue: "This cave is called Heartless Cave. You do not need to worry, there is nothing inside this cave. But what makes it scary is precisely that."
Tang Li Xue''s stunning face waspletely dumbfounded since she did not understand Instructor Mei Lan''s exnation at all.
Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to exin to Tang Li Xue as she took out a rope and tied it to Tang Li Xue''s slender waist.
"You can enter Heartless Cave now. Your punishment is only to stay there for 10 hours. It should be easy for you, right?" Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue in a teasing tone.
Instructor Mei Lan suspiciously stared at Instructor Mei Lan as she saw a rope tied to her slender waist connected to the rope on Instructor Mei Lan''s grasp.
"Err, Instructor Lan... Why does it seem I be a bait for..." Tang Li Xue asked, but before she could finish her words, Instructor Mei Lan already pushed her toward the cave.
"You do not need to ask about it! You will understand it soon enough!" Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to exin to Tang Li Xue again.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her nervousness as she slowly approached the dark cave step by step.
Normally, her [Night Vision] could see everything in the dark, but this dark cave was extremely strange.
Tang Li Xue could not even see anything from the entrance as if the darkness here was a creature ready to swallow her whole instead.
Tang Li Xue swallowed her saliva as she braved herself and took a step into the dark cave.
After she stepped into the dark cave, she could no longer even see her hands, feet, and body.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue never fell into this situation anymore after she obtained [Night Vision] since she could see everything clearly no matter how dark the environment was.
Fear and horror crept into her heart as she tried to say something to slightly dispel her fear, but she immediately realized that she could not make any sound in this dark cave.
Tang Li Xue tried to p her hands and stomp her feet, but there was no sound echoed here at all.
Then Tang Li Xue urged her deep blue me of Pride to illuminate her surroundings.
Who knew that she actually failed to lit her me of Pride here?!
No... To be exact, Tang Li Xue did not even know if she could not use her me of Pride here or if she already used it but her me of Pride failed to illuminate her surroundings!
Tang Li Xue stretched her hands to grope the cave wall, but after a long time, she still failed to touch anything.
When Tang Li Xue wanted to sp her own hands, she actually could no longer touch anything!
In fright and panic, Tang Li Xue tried to use all of her divine abilities, but since she could no longer see, hear, or sense anything, she did not know if she sessfully used any of her divine abilities or not.
Tang Li Xue immediately nned to give up, so she turned around and ran back, but no matter how long or fast she ran, she failed to get out of the dark cave!
It was as if she was inside the boundless expanse of darkness, and she waspletely trapped inside it.
After she reincarnated into this world and obtained her System, she never felt so helpless as now.
It was like she hade back to her previous helpless self...
Her sickly weak self that was trapped inside the dark hospital alone at night.
She was truly scared right now...
She did not want to die alone in this darkness...
Just when Tang Li Xue almost lost herself, a bright sunlight suddenly shone on her face.
It was actually Instructor Mei Lan who pulled her out from the dark cave using the rope tied to her waist!
"Look at your embarrassing appearance~! And you only enter that dark cave for less than ten minutes!" Instructor Mei Lan sneered and mocked Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s beautiful face was already filled with tears and snot at this time.
After she wiped her face with her sleeve, she quickly begged Instructor Mei Lan: "Instructor Lan, please do not let me enter this terrifying cave again~! I... I am willing to ept 10 times heavier punishment than Bingbing and Silly Fox!"
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head in disappointment as she exined to Tang Li Xue: "Did you know that this Heartless Cave actually tests how firm your heart is when facing something you fear the most? Little Xue, you cannot even hold for more than ten minutes, and it just shows how fragile your heart is."
Instructor Mei Lan actually did not want to bring Tang Li Xue to this heart test too early, but she changed her decision after the Garden City incident.
Chapter 770 770: Light and Darkness!
Chapter 770 Chapter 770: Light and Darkness!
Actually, Tang Li Xue could not really be med for it, since she reincarnated into this Immortal World only less than three years ago.
Different from the other foxes who had already lived for hundreds or even thousands of years, Tang Li Xu''s total lifetime if her current life and previous life were added together was still less than twenty years.
So, how could she have something like a firm Dao heart like the others who had lived for hundreds or even thousands of years?!
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan did not think so...
For Instructor Mei Lan, indecisiveness in any situation would always bring disaster to anyone, and a fatal weakness that must be eliminated as soon as possible.
Instructor Mei Lan clearly nned to use this Heartless Cave to hone Tang Li Xue''s heart and eliminate her indecisiveness.
Instructor Mei Lan immediately rejected Tang Li Xue''s plea by saying: "NO! Do you want to walk into that cave again by yourself or must I kick you forcefully into that cave?"
Tang Li Xue''s stunningly beautiful face was still extremely pale, and she still had notpletely recovered yet from the previous fright, but Instructor Mei Lan had already grabbed the cor of her clothes.
"Little Xue, you have to remember that the only way to fight against fear is not to run away from it, but to face it bravely instead." Instructor Mei Lan whispered to Tang Li Xue
Then Instructor Mei Lan threw Tang Li Xue into the Heartless Cave without any hesitation before Tang Li Xue couldin again.
When Tang Li Xue was thrown into the Heartless Cave, all of her senses began to fade away again just like before.
Tang Li Xue tried to bite the tip of her tongue in order to keep herself awake, but she could not even feel the pain anymore.
The darkness slowly corroded her mind and heart with fear and panic.
Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth as she tried her hardest to keep herself together, but she felt the time here seemed to tick painfully slow here.
Every passing second seemed to get longer and longer.
After just ten minutes, Tang Li Xue felt as if she had been several months inside the Heartless Cave.
After twenty minutes, Tang Li Xue felt as if she had suffered for several years inside the Heartless Cave.
Just when she almost could not hold on anymore, the fragmented memories resurfaced vividly in her mind.
Inside the dark cave in the Moonlight Forest, she sleptfortably on the top of Xiao Hei''s warm body.
''Ah, I really miss that warmth... If only we could go back to that time...'' Tang Li Xue secretly thought in her mind.
But Instructor Mei Lan suddenly pulled Tang Li Xue out from the Heartless Cave again using the rope tied to her waist!
"Cough, cough, cough... Huff, huff, huff... " Tang Li Xue panted heavily, and she even had trouble to breath normally right now.
As soon as she could contact her perfect copy with their mind connection, Tang Li Xue immediately asked for her perfect copy''s help urgently!
''I will really go crazy if I have to stay in that cave for another nine and a half more hours! Quickly do something to break this situation!'' Tang Li Xue said to her perfect copy.
''Then should I use [Paranormal Intuition] again? This is not really good, right? It seems we have depended too much on [Paranormal Intuition]tely. It will make our mind dull andzy to think hard to find the solution for any matter.'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copyined.
''Who the hell cares about that?! Oh, right! Why don''t I just use [Swap] skill right now, and let you taste howfortable that damned dark cave is?!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in rage.
''Understood~! I will do it right away~!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy replied in a serious tone.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy might not like the suffocated feeling when she used [Paranormal Intuition], but it was still so much betterpared to being thrown into the Heartless Cave.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took a deep breath as she sat in the lotus position at the courtyard in her room space...
[Paranormal Intuition]... activated~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy felt extremely suffocated as her soul and consciousness were thrown into a deep dazzling golden sea of knowledge.
Countless minuscule golden runes and words, which contained a boundless amount of knowledge, began to rush toward her mind.
If she did not do anything to narrow down these unlimited amounts of knowledge and only absorbed the knowledge she needed, her soul and consciousness would definitely be crushed to nothingness by them.
Just like before, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately set her target for the information and knowledge she wanted to find.
The information and knowledge she wanted to obtain right now was about how to remain unaffected while inside the Heartless Cave!
The rted information appeared piece by piece in her mind like a fast-forwarded movie.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could onlyst for a few dozen seconds at best, so she hastily digested the rted information given by the dazzling golden Sea of Knowledge.
Surprisingly, the Heartless Cave was made by imitating the Darkness Domain.
Not only it was the best ce to temper anyone''s heart and mind, but it could even be used toprehend the Profound Law of Darkness.
As for how to remain unaffected inside the Heartless Cave...
Either Tang Li Xue had to 100% master the Profound Law of Darkness or 100% master the Profound Law of Light to counter it.
Since Tang Li Xue had not evenprehended the Profound Law of Darkness or Light, then she could only forcefully resist the effect of the extremely powerful Darkness Domain just like before.
WEEENG~!
The equipment skill from her [Heaven Covering Ne], [Spirit Cover], automatically activated to protect the perfect copy''s soul, mind, and consciousness from any harm caused by overusing [Paranormal Intuition] divine ability!
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still fell unconscious as usual.
''What?! That is it?! What a scam is that?! If I knew it would be like this, it would be better if I just use [Swap] skill and exchange ce with my perfect copy instead.'' The real Tang Li Xue instantly deted in great disappointment.
Her perfect copy had already passed out right now, so she clearly could not let her fainted perfect copy take her ce.
Tang Li Xue could only let Instructor Mei Lan throw her into the Heartless Cave again for the third time with resignation.
Tang Li Xue almost immediately lost all of her senses as soon as she entered the Heartless Cave, but her mind was quickly working to think of a quick solution before she waspletely corroded by fear and panic.
''Profound Law of Light and Darkness, huh... But I have only practiced the Profound Law of Heat and Cold.''
''There is actually Profound Law of Light and Darkness included in [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], but it is clearly already toote for me to try to practice it in this situation.''
''Even the Profound Law of Heat and Cold that I had already practiced so hard only reached more than 5%, so how the heck the Profound Law of Light and Darkness could reach 100%?! That is clearly an impossible requirement, right?!''
Tang Li Xue became even more agitated and impatient as the time passed.
But the good thing was that Tang Li Xue had realized that she could actually integrate the Profound Law of Light and Darkness into her [Sun and Moon Domain] too in the future.
In short, Tang Li Xue was quite excited at the future of herplete [Sun and Moon Domain] since the more Profound Laws she could integrate into her [Sun and Moon Domain], the higher its growth limit would be.
Her [Sun and Moon Domain] should have a much higher growth limitpared to the other single elemental domains such as Darkness Domain, Forest Domain, me Domain, and so on.
Tang Li Xue had great confidence that her [Sun and Moon Domain] might be able topete against Meng Yue''s [Aurora Creation Domain] in the future.
''Eh, wait a minute...'' A light of inspiration shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind as she suddenly thought of a crazy idea.
At this moment, Tang Li Xue finally remembered the strongest treasure in her possession, the onlyplete Holy-Rank Divine Treasure in this entire Immortal World, [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl].
She pondered if she could use Sun Dragon King''s memories projection to temporarily run away from here, but she quickly rejected the idea since it was the same as cheating.
Moreover, a few months in the Sun Dragon King''s memories projection was only a few moments in reality, so that idea would not work.
Of course, she could enter the Sun Dragon King''s memories projection right at the moment when she almost lost her mind to reset her mind and heart that was corroded by fear and panic back to normal.
But again, that was not a long-term solution since she clearly could not repeat that trick for ten hours straight.
Her mind and mental energy would be exhausted first before she could go crazy if she kept entering the Sun Dragon King''s memories projection to dispel the effect of this Heartless Cave.
''This damn annoying cave~! I do not believe that I cannot...'' Before Tang Li Xue could think of any proper solution, she could no longer bear it anymore as the darkness swallowed her mind and heart again.
Chapter 771 771: A Final Missing Piece!
Chapter 771 Chapter 771: A Final Missing Piece!
Instructor Mei Lan pulled Tang Li Xue out from the dark Heartless Cave using the rope tied to Tang Li Xue''s waist for the third time.
But Instructor Mei Lan did not immediately throw Tang Li Xue into the dark Heartless Cave again since she was afraid that Tang Li Xue''s mind and heart could no longer withstand this kind of tempering.
Instructor Mei Lan generously let Tang Li Xue rest for at least half an hour this time to recover herself.
Actually, Tang Li Xue would have really passed out this time if Instructor Mei Lan had not pulled her out in time.
Her breath had already be very weak. Her pale had turned even paler like a white sheet. Even her entire slender body and clothes werepletely soaked in her own cold sweat right now.
Despite her current miserable condition and the unreasonable way given by [Paranormal Intuition] to nullify the effect of the Heartless Cave, Tang Li Xue still had not given up on thinking of a way to break the effect of the Heartless Cave.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could onlyst for a few dozen seconds when she used [Paranormal Intuition], so it was normal for her to not be able to obtain all of the information about the Heartless Cave.
''Damn it~! I really have to do something! There must be some way... some way for me to...'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in frustration.
Then a light bulb of inspiration suddenly shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind right at this moment!
''Wait a minute... It is said that the Heartless Cave was created by imitating the Darkness Domain. Imitating, huh... Then why don''t I try to create the Light Domain to counter it?! Holy cow~! I am such a genius~!'' Tang Li Xue excitedly thought as her topaz blue eyes shone like a pair of blue stars.
Normally, it would be impossible for anyone to do something like creating something to imitate the Light Domain withoutpletely mastering the Light Domain, but Tang Li Xue knew she was different from the others!
Because she has the Holy-Rank Divine Treasure [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] plus [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline plus me of Pride!
Before Instructor Mei Lan could throw her into the Heartless Cave again, Tang Li Xue hastily took this half-hour resting time to quickly think how to do it!
''First, the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] clearly should be the core and my [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline should be the vessel... No, no, no... My body is not strong enough to withstand it, so my [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline cannot be used as a vessel. Let''s try to use it as a connector instead...'' Tang Li Xue closed her eyes while her mind kept working at a high speed.
Instructor Mei Lan squinted her eyes as she realized that Tang Li Xue might be up to something.
She did not bother to disturb Tang Li Xue, but she smiled brightly in satisfaction at Tang Li Xue''s growth instead.
Unfortunately, the time was up before Tang Li Xue could finish designing her n, so Instructor Mei Lan grabbed Tang Li Xue''s clothes cor and threw her into the Heartless Cave again.
Tang Li Xue instantly lost all of her senses as her mind and heart began to corrode by fear and panic.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth as she forcefully pushed her mind to focus onpleting the design of Light Domain''s imitation.
After half an hour when Tang Li Xue almost passed out in fear and panic after being corroded by darkness, Instructor Mei Lan used the rope to pull her out from the Heartless Cave again.
When her mind slowly cleared up, Tang Li Xue immediately tried to carry out the design of Light Domain''s imitation.
''With [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] as the core connect it with my [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline...'' Tang Li Xue immediately felt her entire body burning hotter and hotter at every passing moment.
If she did not channel it somewhere else, her entire body would not be able to bear it soon and be roasted by the unbearable heat!
Right before Instructor Mei Lan threw her into the Heartless Cave for the fifth time, Tang Li Xue hastilypleted thest step before shepletely lost all of her senses inside the Heartless Cave: ''Then use me of Pride to condense [Sun Domain] first before connecting it with my [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline!''
WEEEEENGG~!
The entire dark cave was instantly illuminated by the brilliant golden light emitted by Tang Li Xue!
Despite being inside the Heartless Cave, Tang Li Xue''s brilliant golden light domain pushed away the darkness around her, and she could no longer be affected by the Heartless Cave!
It was like unleashing the small Light Domain inside the Darkness Domain.
"Woah, it works~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in great excitement.
"Let''s call this... [Sun Dragon Domain]... Err, imitation~!'' Tang Li Xue muttered happily.
Unfortunately, before she could be happy for long...
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~! BOOOOOOOOMM~!
Her [Sun Dragon Domain]''s imitation copsed in only a few breaths of time, and the surrounding darknesspletely swallowed her again.
''What~?! Why?! I am really sure that it is already perfect!'' Tang Li Xue groaned in great disappointment.
The greater her previous hope and happiness when she achieved it, the greater her disappointment right now.
She almost really wanted to give up on the spot, but she still felt really unwilling to give up just like this.
''No, I am not wrong! It is really sessful for a few seconds, right?! The reason for the failure should be my domain is still far too weak while the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] as the core was too powerful. It is like a bulb with far excessive electrical voltage resulting in the bulb exploding.'' Tang Li Xue concluded from her previous mistake.
But without using [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] as the core, tang Li Xue did not have enough confidence to create something powerful enough topletely overwhelm the darkness in this Heartless Cave...
As her mind and heart were corroded by darkness, and she was filled with fear and panic, Tang Li Xue felt that she really wanted to give up so badly and just ept her fate.
Anyway, she only has around eight hours left to stay in this Heartless Cave.
Instructor Mei Lan fished Tang Li Xue out of the Heartless Cave again before she couldpletely faint.
''No, it is not the time for me to give up just yet! I am onlycking the final missing piece!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth with a pair of bloodshot eyes as she refused to give up.
Just like the proverb ''99% of gambling addicts quit right before they are about to win big'', so how could Tang Li Xue give up just like them?!
Err, well... that was clearly a wrong example, but Tang Li Xue had already prepared herself to struggle until the end.
Tang Li Xue carefully used her [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] as the core and connected it with my [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline for the second time resulting in the temperature on her entire body burning hotter and hotter.
Instructor Mei Lan did not give Tang Li Xue enough time to prepare herself and immediately threw her into the Heartless Cave after she had just recovered a bit.
If Tang Li Xue swallowed by the darkness and lost all of her senses, she would bepletely helpless to do anything, so right before she entered the Heartless Cave, she instantly decided to do something even more crazier!
Tang Li Xue integrated the previously failed [Sun Dragon Domain]''s imitation into one of the Sun Dragon rted divine abilities!
Compared to the [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs], her [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] was clearly the most suitable among them!
So without any hesitation, Tang Li Xue integrated the [Sun Dragon Domain]''s imitation with [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] with her eyes as the vessel!
Tang Li Xue was thrown into the Heartless Cave again...
But after a few moments, a pair of glittering golden lights suddenly shone brightly inside the pitch-ck darkness!
''Wooaahhh~! To think my random idea could work this well!'' Tang Li Xue thought while sighing in awe at her own bright mind.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes had temporarily changed color as they were shining with dazzling golden lights, and the darkness could no longer affect Tang Li Xue anymore at this point.
Without Instructor Mei Lan pulling the rope, Tang Li Xue leisurely walked out from the Heartless Cave by relying on her dazzling golden eyes.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled as she threw away the rope in her grasp while asking curiously at Tang Li Xue: "You are clearly cheating, but it no longer matters as long as you can walk out from that Heartless Cave by yourself. By the way, what is the name of your new skill?"
Tang Li Xue smiled back at Instructor Mei Lan as she replied: "I named it [Fiery Bright Eyes]."
Chapter 772 772: Attending Congratulation Ceremony!
Chapter 772 Chapter 772: Attending Congrattion Ceremony!
Instructor Mei Lan curiously tried to inquire about Tang Li Xue''s newly created skill, [Fiery Bright Eyes], but Tang Li Xue honestly shook her head obliviously instead.
She identally created this skill a couple of seconds ago, so she really did not have any idea about this [Fiery Bright Eyes]''s ability other than countering the effect of Heartless Cave.
Instructor Mei Lan decided to let Tang Li Xue explore her newly created skill for today, while Instructor Mei Lan immediately returned to the Education Building, so she could supervise Silly Fox and Bingbing''s training.
Tang Li Xue sat in the lotus position on the grassy ground near the entrance of Heartless Cave as she carefully examined how her [Fiery Bright Eyes] works.
[Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] as the core.
[Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline as the connector.
Prototype [Sun Domain] as the vessel.
At first, everything was just as she had designed, but there was actually more than that.
The Prototype [Sun Domain] was actually not projected outside like before, but linked with Tang Li Xue''s eyes through her divine ability, [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes].
If it was before, Tang Li Xue could only burn one target that she could see with [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes].
But with this [Fiery Bright Eyes], Tang Li Xue could lock several targets at once and use [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] to burn them all simultaneously.
Moreover, [Fiery Bright Eyes] also had the power to see through any disguise or invisible creatures, and it could also allow Tang Li Xue to see through any obstacle such as walls or trees, so almost all of [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes]''s previous weaknesses werepletely covered by this [Fiery Bright Eyes].
Yes, it was only ''almost'' because the most crucial weakness of [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] which was the rapid energy consumption would only get worse if Tang Li Xue used [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] while in the [Fiery Bright Eyes] mode.
"This miniature prototype [Sun Domain] in my eyes is truly amazing~! I wonder if I can also link it with other divine abilities?" Tang Li Xue murmured in an excited tone.
However, Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head in disappointment since she currently only has three Sun Dragon-rted divine abilities: [Sun Dragon ws], [Sun Dragon Fangs], and [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes].
Other than [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes], both [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] were condensed outside of her body, so how could she connect them with her [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline?!
Unknowingly, the sky had almost turned dark after Tang Li Xue experimented with her newly created [Fiery Bright Eyes] for several hours.
Tang Li Xue immediately remembered that she still had an appointment with Teacher Li Wei to attend the congrattions ceremony together tonight.
"Oh, crap~! I almost forgot about it!" tang Li Xue eximed in panic as she executed her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] and sprinted back towards the Residential Building as soon as possible.
Even though the distance between the Heartless Cave and the Residential Building was quite far away, Tang Li Xue only needed less than ten minutes with her current lightning-like speed to go back to the Residential Building.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned for her perfect copy to attend the congrattions ceremony with Teacher Li Wei tonight while the real her would only practice in her room instead, but unfortunately, her perfect copy was actually still passed out because she had used [Paranormal Intuition] this noon.
Tang Li Xue sighed helplessly as she un-summoned her perfect copy with [Twin Moons] and quickly changed to a light blue dress given by Teacher Li Wei before.
Tang Li Xue had to admit that this light blue dress was trulyfortable to wear.
Not only that, there were also defense formations to protect the wearer, cleansing formations to keep the wearer clean, beautifying formations to make the wearer look more beautiful, and many other functions.
"As I expect from a deluxe dress at Spirit Treasure level~! Hehehe... So, this dress will be mine from now on, right? It should be impossible for Teacher Li Wei to ask me to return this dress to himter, right?" Tang Li Xue muttered in amazement and joy.
Tang Li Xue looked at her own reflection in the mirror, and she was instantly dazzled by her own appearance.
Even when she previously wore in white clothes, Tang Li Xue had already looked extremely charming and stunningly beautiful, but after wearing this Spirit Treasure level light blue dress, Tang Li Xue''s beauty immediately enhanced again several times.
After Tang Li Xue admired her own reflection in the mirror for more than half an hour, someone actually called her through hermunication talisman.
Tang Li Xue took themunication talisman from her space pouch and epted the call.
Teacher Li Wei''s masculine sound resounded from themunication talisman: "My carriage already arrived in front of the Residential Building''s gate. Should I pick you up from your room?"
"No need, I will head down right now!" Tang Li Xue replied as she disconnected hermunication talisman, threw it back into her space pouch, and hastily headed out of her room.
When Tang Li Xue was heading out from the Residential Building to meet with Teacher Li Wei, she did not realize that a few people had identally seen her.
Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Yan Fei hid behind the corridor while peeking at Tang Li Xue''s back.
"Little Xue looks so awesomely beautiful today~!" Bingbing said as she admired Tang Li Xue''s stunning look in a light blue dress.
"So, strange~! Why is Brother Sheng dressing up like that today?!" Princess Yan Fei muttered in a tone filled with suspicion.
"Hey, are you really a sea beast princess?! Wipe out your drool first before you try to say something cool like that!" Silly Fox mocked Princess Yan Fei without any respect, but his eyes never left Tang Li Xue even one bit.
"You insolent fox! At least show basic respect to me as Sea Beast Royal Family!" Princess Yan Fei red at Silly Fox angrily while wiping her drool with her sleeve.
"Ah, right, yes, your majesty~! Just go back to your sea pce as soon as possible if you want to be respected as a princess!" Silly Fox rolled his eyes and mocked Princess Yan Fei mercilessly.
Princess Yan Fei fumed in rage, and she almost lost her patience, then attacked Silly Fox.
But Bingbing immediately pulled Princess Yan Fei''s hand while trying tofort her: "Ei, just ignore that fool! Let''s go, Princess! We have to follow Little Xue before she is gone!"
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue had already gotten out of the Residential Building and looked around to find Teacher Li Wei''s carriage.
"Little Lass, over here~!" Teacher Li Wei stuck his head out of the carriage''s window and called Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was astonished when she saw Teacher Li Wei''s extremely luxurious carriage.
It was a ck metal carriage adorned with gold on its every rim, and there was a pair of Jade-Scaled Horses that pulled the carriage.
After Teacher Li Wei opened the carriage door, Tang Li Xue jumped into the carriage and sat beside Teacher Li Wei.
Right before Teacher Li Wei''s luxurious carriage could drive away from the Residential Building, Princess Yan Fei hastily took out a conch from her space pouch.
After Princess Yan Fei blew the conch, the conch actually transformed into a conch carriage.
Princess Yan Fei pulled Bingbing and both of them jumped into the conch carriage.
"Let''s go and follow that carriage~!" Princess Yan Fei urged her conch carriage to follow Teacher Li Wei''s carriage without waiting for Silly Fox to enter her conch carriage.
Silly Fox shook his head as he never nned to hitchhike Princess Yan Fei''s conch carriage from the start.
Silly Fox slowly took a crouching stance...
[Blood Burst] plus [Blood Ignition] - Quadruple Amplification~!
Then she suddenly sprinted swiftly to chase after Teacher Li Wei''s luxurious carriage!
After ten minutes or so, Tang Li Xue also saw many other luxurious carriages with different styles such as ice carriages, me-wheeled carriages, rainbow-shiny carriages, and so on heading in the same direction as them.
The foxes inside those luxurious carriages should also attend the congrattion ceremony tonight like them.
Tang Li Xue''s expression tensed and became really serious as she thought she had to act as Teacher Li Wei''s shield to drive away many other vixens who nned to woo Teacher Li Wei tonight.
Teacher Li Wei chucked in amusement when he saw Tang Li Xue''s tense expression, so he advised: "You do not need to look so scary like that. On the contrary, you have to look graceful and cheerful, so you can make them not dare to look down at you. You have to rx first, okay?"
Tang Li Xue nodded at Teacher Li Wei before she took a deep breath to calm down her tense mood.
"Now, try to show your most dazzling smile! Don''t worry~! You already look extremely beautiful tonight. All you have to do right now is only to smile cheerfully and move gracefully." Teacher Li Wei advised again.
Chapter 773 773: The Most Dazzling Star!
Chapter 773 Chapter 773: The Most Dazzling Star!
Tang Li Xue pondered tang Li Xue''s second advice for a while, and Instructor Mei Lan''s image slowly appeared in her mind.
Instructor Mei Lan always showed her beautiful gentle smile, and her every movement was graceful. Not only did she look elegant and majestic but the aura she emitted was menacing which made everyone not dare to look down on her at all.
When Tang Li Xue was still thinking about it, their luxurious carriage had already reached the venue where the congrattions ceremony would be held tonight.
Teacher Li Wei held Tang Li Xue''s soft hand while whispering to her gently before they got out of the luxurious carriage: "Come on, Little Lass~! You will be the most dazzling star tonight."
"My request for you is only one. Intoxicate everyone with your dazzling beauty, and make all other flowers shame in your presence so no one dares to approach us." Teacher Li Wei ended his words as he pulled Tang Li Xue down from the luxurious carriage.
Tang Li Xue nodded at Teacher Li Wei as she decided to try to imitate Instructor Mei Lan on the spot.
The charming gentle smile appeared on her stunningly beautiful face as she gracefully got off the luxurious carriage with Teacher Li Wei.
The eyes of all the guests who had also just gotten off their carriage immediately focused on Tang Li Xue as soon as she appeared with Teacher Li Wei.
Previously, Tang Li Xue always wore a silver fox mask to cover her stunningly beautiful face, but tonight, she finally bared her beauty in front of everyone else.
Whether they were male or female foxes, everyone was stunned silly as they werepletely captivated by Tang Li Xue''s peerless look.
Tang Li Xue and Teacher Li Wei were walking hand in hand toward the party hall together, and every time they passed someone, their attention would definitely be focused on Tang Li Xue.
Many foxes even forgot to look at what was in front of them and crashed into something or someone in front of them.
After they entered the party hall, Teacher Li Wei led Tang Li Xue to sit together in the most front seat for the honorable guests.
Tang Li Xue actually felt ufortable when everyone''s eyes were focused on her, but she could only hold back and still show her generous gentle smile toward everyone.
Just like what Teacher Li Wei had said, Tang Li Xue''s peerless beautypletely eclipsed everyone tonight like the most dazzling star, and many female foxes were too ashamed to approach Teacher Li Wei when he was already apanied by someone as dazzling as Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue clearly had already over-fulfilled her role as Teacher Li Wei''s shield tonight.
But of course, it would not work for everyone...
"Hello, Young Master Li Wei. Long time no see." A fox girl with a voluptuous body greeted Teacher Li Wei politely.
Especially her fox tails and fox ears which seemed to be condensed from the purple mes made Tang Li Xue''s heart secretly palpitate in horror when she saw it.
Someone who could made Tang Li Xue feel like this previously was Meng Yue, but Meng Yue was only a Beast Lord or Rare-Grade beast, while this voluptuous fox girl was clearly beyond that level or grade.
A genuine true Spirit Beast!
But Tang Li Xue''s current attention was not on the voluptuous fox girl''s overwhelming strength...
''MELONS~!'' Tang Li Xue stared at the voluptuous fox girl''s extraordinarily huge breasts in astonishment that looked like they would burst out of her sexy dress.
Then she nced at her iparably humble pair of lemons...
Melons VS lemons...
Well, Tang Li Xue suddenly had an urge to hide her chest in shame.
''No, no, no... Are those weapons really real? Is it possible that they are made from silicone like in my previous world?!'' Tang Li Xue red at the voluptuous fox girl''s pair of big melons suspiciously as she really wanted to grab and fondle them to test if they were real or fake.
Teacher Li Wei did not realize Tang Li Xue''s strange thought as he stood up to greet the voluptuous fox girl: "Good evening, President Zi Hua. I am really sorry. I am too busytely, so I cannote to the Inscriptionist Association."
Yes, the voluptuous fox girl with a pair of extraordinarily huge melons was actually Zi Hua, the President of the Inscriptionist Association.
Zi Hua chuckled yfully while replying: "It is all right. Ipletely understand that Young Master Li Wei should be very busy deciphering that map of secret space before."
Teacher Li Wei nodded his head while showing a helpless expression, then he introduced Tang Li Xue and Zi Hua to each other: "Oh, right. This is my student, Tang Li Xue. Little Lass, this is Zi Hua, the President of the Inscriptionist Association."
"Hello, President Zi Hua. It is my honor to meet you tonight." Tang Li Xue smiled and nodded her head politely at Zi Hua.
Zi Hua shook her head instead and replied: "No, it should be my honor instead. Young Master Li Wei''s student should be extremely extraordinary."
Tang Li Xue immediately recalled what Teacher Li Wei had said to her before that Zi Hua was Zi Yan''s older sister.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had expected, Zi Yan came towards President Zi Hua after she chatted with the other guests.
Of course, Zi Yan had already realized that Teacher Li Wei entered the party hall long ago, but she was too embarrassed to approach him because Tang Li Xue''s appearance was too dazzling tonight, and it made her feel very inferior.
Only after her older sister, President Zi Hua, greeted Teacher Li Wei first and telepathically signaled her toe that she regain some of her confidence and approached them.
"Brother Li Wei..." Zi Yan greeted Teacher Li Wei softly while blushing shyly.
"Good evening, Miss Zi Yan." Teacher Li Wei nodded politely at Zi Yan.
Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise when she saw Bing Shui right behind Zi Yan.
''Ah, that is right. I almost forgot that Bing Shui is Zi Yan''s disciple.'' Tang Li Xue smiled and nodded at both Zi Yan and Bing Shui.
"Humph~!" Zi Yan coldly turned her face around in displeasure at Tang Li Xue while Bing Shui nodded back slightly at Tang Li Xue, but she did not dare to tantly greet Tang Li Xue since it would surely anger her inscription teacher, Zi Yan.
Just when Tang Li Xue sneered provocatively at Zi Yan, her [Extrasensory Perception] suddenly sensed a menacing stare stabbed at her from behind.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered slightly in fright as she reluctantly turned around to check who was staring menacingly at her from behind.
Who knew that she actually saw an extremely familiar figure instead?!
''Ins... Instructor Lan~?! Damn it~! What the heck?! Why is Instructor Lan here?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in fright as she subconsciously turned and hid behind Teacher Li Wei.
Unfortunately, it was already far toote since Instructor Mei Lan had already seen her.
With Tang Li Xue''s dazzling appearance, how could Instructor Mei Lan not see her?!
Instructor Mei Lan pulled the handsome male fox who came to the party hall with her toward Tang Li Xue and Teacher Li Wei.
Tang Li Xue''s gossip heart also ignited as she secretly thought that Instructor Mei Lan mighte to this congrattions ceremony with her sweetheart?!
Then Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered even more violently in fright: ''Would Instructor Lan silence meter if I know about this news?!''
Teacher Li Wei did not look panicky or irritable when he saw Instructor Mei Lane toward him with a handsome male fox.
"Good evening, Councillor Junjie and Sister Mei Lan." Teacher Li Wei greeted both of them politely with a bright smile on his handsome face.
Tang Li Xue was quite surprised that Teacher Li Wei did not call Instructor Mei Lan with his usual ''affectionate call''.
Well, Teacher Li Wei usually called Instructor Mei Lan, ''Dummy Lan'', but he politely called her Sister Mei Lan tonight.
"Hahahaha, I wonder why my littless pulls me here, so there is Little Wei here. Good boy, to think you can decipher that map of secret space so quickly... If my littless can have a child with you, the child would surely be brilliantly smart!" The handsome male fox patted Teacher Li Wei''s shoulder whileughing.
"Old man~!" Instructor Mei Lan angrily shouted to the handsome male fox.
"Err, Teacher Li Wei... Who is this fox?" Tang Li Xue curiously asked softly.
She was actually too scared to talk at that moment, but she could no longer hold her curiosity anymore, so she decided to ask Teacher Li Wei instead.
"This is Councillor Junjie... Your Instructor Mei Lan''s father." Teacher Li Wei introduced the handsome male fox to Tang Li Xue with a teasing smile on his face.
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Chapter 774 774: Contest?!
Chapter 774 Chapter 774: Contest?!
Actually, Tang Li Xue had already seen Instructor Mei Lan''s father, Councillor Junjie, a few times before.
But today''s Councillor Junjie clearly looked differentpared to the one Tang Li Xue had seen before.
''What the heck?! Isn''t he suddenly looking so much younger and handsome today?! He looks like Instructor Lan''s brother instead today!'' Tang Li Xue thought in astonishment.
Despite her curiosity, Tang Li Xue really did not dare to face Instructor Mei Lan''s father because she had already troubled him twice previously.
First, when she previously evolved into [Imperial Sun and Moon Fox], she identally ruined Councillor Junjie''s secret garden... err, no... he called it the heavenly courtyard.
Second, when Little Loki was still an egg, it went on a rampage in hunger at the za inside the Auction House, if not for Instructor Mei Lan''s timely help, Councillor Junjie would have already found Little Loki''s egg, and he might have annihte it on the spot.
In short, there was nothing good happened each time Tang Li Xue met with Councillor Junjie before.
Councillor Junjie nced at Tang Li Xue coldly for a moment before he looked away while snorting in displeasure: "Humph~!"
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly as she swallowed back the greeting words she wanted to say to Councillor Junjie.
All right, it seems this narrow-minded old fox still remembers the matter about Tang Li Xue ruining his previous heavenly courtyard...
But Instructor Mei Lan quickly pulled Tang Li Xue away from Teacher Li Wei while interrogating Tang Li Xue with her telepathy: "Little Xue, why do you attend this congrattion ceremony with that Sissy Wei?! Do you know that you are not suitable to meddle with this kind of political conference?!"
Tang Li Xue could only show her helpless expression and replied back with telepathy: "I am sorry, Instructor Lan, but I really have no other choice. I already owe Teacher Li Wei several requests, and I also need him to do something extremely important for me, so I can only do my best to help Teacher Li Wei today."
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply after she heard Tang Li Xue''s exnation.
The matter about this Fallen Ancient Sect''s Secret Realm was not an easy one to be handled.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue did not have any strong background to back her up like Teacher Li Wei or Instructor Mei Lan herself.
Instructor Mei Lan red resentfully at Teacher Li Wei, but Teacher Li Wei smiled yfully at Instructor Mei Lan instead while saying: "Sister Mei Lan, you are really too overprotective of your own students. It is clearly not?good for their growth."
"The strong tree will indeed attract wind, but how could the tree grow to be strong if it did not face wind and rain?" Teacher Li Wei muttered to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan really wanted to argue and scold Teacher Li Wei so badly, but this was clearly not the right time to do it, so she could only smile extremely gently at Teacher Li Wei instead.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered violently when she saw Instructor Mei Lan''s extremely gentle smile since she had always seen this kind of smile each time Instructor Mei Lan wanted to punish her harshly.
President Zi Hua also smiled and greeted Councillor Junjie: "Good evening, Councillor Junjie~!"
Councillor Junjie also smiled and nodded politely at President Zi Hua: "Hey, good evening too, Miss Zi Hua! Thank you very much for your previous gift."
President Zi Hua shook her head and generously said: "It was just a small gift. I am really happy if it can make Councillor Junjie happy."
Next, President Zi Hua, Councillor Junjie, and Teacher Li Wei greeted many important guests while Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan only followed behind them silently.
Of course, Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan still showed their beautiful smile to everyone while nodding at them from time to time, but they did not join their conversation at all.
Right at this time, Princess Yan Fei, Bingbing, and Silly Fox finally also reached the venue where the congrattions ceremony was being held.
Unfortunately, they could not enter because they did not have any invitation cards or any acquaintances there.
Silly Fox displeasantly said to Princess Yan Fei: "Aren''t you Sea Beast Princess? Can you ask someone here to bring us inside?!"
Princess Yan Fei rolled her eyes and replied in a disdainful tone: "Are you stupid or what?! This is Fox Race''s home, not Sea Beast Race''s home! How could I have any connection with important foxes here?!"
Bingbing rubbed her forehead whileining: "Then how could we go inside there? Should we use force to enter that ce?"
Silly Fox sneered mockingly at Bingbing: "There are so many foxes at True Spirit Beast level inside there. Even if you have several hundreds of lives, you will still definitely die if you dare to forcefully enter that ce!"
Just when the trio Princess Yan Fei, Bingbing, and Silly Foxpletely ran out of wits to enter the venue of the congrattion ceremony was being held...
"Hic... What are you three doing here?" A masculine voice asked in a slurred tone.
"Eh, Teacher Bai Wuchen?!" Bingbing and Silly Fox eximed in shock and surprise.
Yes, the one who had called them just now was Teacher Bai Wuchen who hade to the congrattion ceremony with a beautiful blonde foxdy.
"Who are these kids? Your students?" The beautiful blonde foxdy with long golden hair, yellow fox tails, and yellow fox ears asked while smiling politely at the trio of Princess Yan Fei, Bingbing, and Silly Fox.
"Hic... Err, not really... To be exact, they are Mei Lan''s students. You should know her, right?" Teacher Bai Wuchen replied leisurely.
"Oh, I see... So, they are Mei Lan''s cute students." The beautiful blonde foxdy smiled even more kindly at them.
While Princess Yan Fei and Bingbing were still too shy to say anything, Silly Fox was the first one to step forward to ask: "Teacher Bai Wuchen and... Err, Teacher Bai Wuchen''s wife? Can you please bring us in? Our friend is inside, but we cannot enter because we do not have any invitation cards."
Teacher Bai Wuchen almost slipped and fell down when he heard Silly Fox''s words.
He immediately scolded: "You little brat, how could you call her that?!"
But the beautiful blonde foxdy pped the back of Teacher Bai Wuchen''s head angrily while saying in a chilling tone: "What?! Do you mean I do not deserve to be your wife?!"
Teacher Bai Wuchen shuddered as he quickly exined: "Of course not~! I mean I am the one who is still not good enough to be your husband."
"Humph~! So, you still have your conscience!" The beautiful blonde foxdy said smugly before she pulled the trio of Princess Yan Fei, Bingbing, and Silly Fox to enter the venue with her.
Teacher Bai Wuchen wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve while ring resentfully at Silly Fox from behind.
Silly Fox shuddered slightly in fright when he sensed Teacher Bai Wuchen''s resentful re stabbed from behind him.
The trio Princess Yan Fei, Bingbing, and Silly Fox were still extremely confused about the vague rtionship between Teacher Bai Wuchen and the beautiful blonde foxdy, but they did not dare to ask about it.
Anyway, they sessfully entered the venue of the congrattion ceremony and were ready to look for Tang Li Xue.
.....
Back to Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan inside the party hall...
After greeting so many important guests, Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan felt their faces were almost numb by smiling too much.
Zi Yan tried to strike up a conversation with Teacher Li Wei so many times, but Teacher Li Wei ignored her and talked to Tang Li Xue instead.
Not only Zi Yan... There were actually many other young fox girls who tried to approach and talk to Teacher Li Wei, but Teacher Li Wei pretended to not see their intention and put all of her attention to Tang Li Xue instead.
He really used Tang Li Xue as his shield to the fullest.
After fifteen minutes or so, all of the guests sat in their own seats, and several honored guests began to give a long speech, including Teacher Li Wei and Councillor Junjie.
After half an hour or so, their long speech finally ended.
Tang Li Xue thought this congrattory ceremony would end soon after they ate dinner that was served on their table.
Tang Li Xue, who always has an extremely strong appetite, did not even have any appetite tonight with so many annoying table manners, so she did not even taste any dishes on the table.
The handsome male fox host cheerfully spoke from the top of the grand stage: "While all of our honorable guests enjoy the delicious meal, we will begin the contest to entertain everyone~!"
Tang Li Xue pulled Teacher Li Wei''s sleeve and asked curiously: "What kind of contest is he talking about?"
Teacher Li Wei chuckled yfully while saying: "This is also the reason why I ask you toe with me to this party. No, this might be also the reason why Councillor Junjie took Sister Mei Lan to this party."
Tang Li Xue tilted her head cutely in confusion.
Teacher Li Wei did not bother to exin as he patted Tang Li Xue''s head and muttered: "Anyway, this might be your chance. If you can win the contest, you can get many credits and prizes."
"Credits and prizes?! Don''t worry~! Winning contest is my specialty!" Tang Li Xue eximed as her topaz blue eyes were glittering like a pair of stars in excitement.
Chapter 775 775: First Contest Begin!
Chapter 775 Chapter 775: First Contest Begin!
The innocent-looking fox girl, who acted as the party host, began to exin the rules to join the contest one by one clearly.
First, only the foxes below the Spirit Beast level could participate in the contest.
Second, the participants could only win the contest with their own abilities without help from anyone or any treasures, so the participants surely were not allowed to cooperate with each other.
Third, again... you could not use any kind of treasure in the contest or you would really be disqualified on the spot.
Then the foxes who wanted to participate in the contest were told to go up on the grand stage.
Both Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan along with the other foxes began to step onto the grand stage one by one.
The beautiful blonde foxdy also urged the trio of Princess Yan Fei, Bingbing, and Silly Fox to go up onto the grand stage with a yful tone: "Come on, you three~! You all can participate in that contest to represent us!"
"Eh? But..." Bingbing muttered in a reluctant tone while staring at Teacher Bai Wuchen.
"XUE~!" Silly Fox became extremely excited when he saw Tang Li Xue was already on the grand stage, so he hastily went onto the grand stage too without any hesitation.
"Hic... You all can go if you want! The prizes of the contest seem to be quite generous." Teacher Bai Wuchen said in a nonchnt tone while greedily gulping the wine on the table.
Bingbing nodded to Teacher Bai Wuchen and jumped onto the grand stage too.
"You do not want to participate like your other friends?" The beautiful blonde foxdy asked Princess Yan Fei curiously.
Princess Yan Fei shook her head in a helpless tone and frustratedly said: "No, I do not want to be the only Sea Beast who participates in the contest. That will be too embarrassing."
Moreover, her overall strength and abilities were greatly weakened on thend, so it should be impossible for her to win the contest against any foxes.
Princess Yan Fei chose not to participate in this contest instead of embarrassing herself in front of everyone. Even though she actually really wanted to y around with her Brother Sheng in this contest so badly.
Silly Fox: "Xue~!"
Bingbing: "Little Xue~!"
Both Silly Fox and Bingbing happily called Tang Li Xue as they ran toward them.
"Hey~! You guys actuallye here too?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise, but she still felt much happier and reassured with more people... or rather foxes she knew in this contest.
"We saw you being taken by the suspicious carriage, so we thought you got kidnapped by someone." Bingbing uttered a random excuse while blushing in shame.
But Silly Fox nodded seriously and added: "Thus we chased you here, but we could not enter this ce. Thankfully Teacher Bai Wuchen and... his wife brought us in with them."
"Teacher Bai Wuchen''s wife?" Tang Li Xue''s gossip heart ignited once again.
"Tsk~! You guys really know how to y. You can even enter an important ceremonial event like this by ying detective." Instructor Mei Lan clicked her tongue in amazement.
"Instructor Lan~?! You... You... alsoe and participate in this contest?!" Both Silly Fox and Bingbing blurted in surprise at the same time.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes while replying displeasantly: "I really did not want toe, but my old man forced me toe to this boring party and participate in this contest."
Just when Instructor Mei Lan and her three students were talking to each other, a mocking voice suddenly resounded from behind them: "Well, well... Loser foxes would always want to cuddle andfort each other, but you all should remember that no one is allowed to cooperate with each other in this contest."
When Tang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan, Silly Fox, and Bingbing turned around, they actually saw Zi Yan and Bing Shui also step onto the grand stage to participate in this contest.
"Bing Shui~!" Bingbing gnashed her teeth as her eyes became bloodshot in great anger and resentment.
Instructor Mei Lan sneered coldly at them and replied: "Then we will see who is the loser foxter."
Zi Yan opened her mouth as she seemed to want to argue with Instructor Mei Lan, but she suddenly swallowed her words back and harrumphed coldly before she walked away from Instructor Mei Lan and her three students.
It looked like her older sister, President Zi Hua, secretly told her with telepathy to not embarrass herself especially since they were on the top of the grand stage right now, and they were in in view of every important guest below.
But another acquaintance approached their group again and yfully greeted Instructor Mei Lan: "Yo, Mei Lan~!"
"Zhiruo?! So, you alsoe to this party and participate in this contest?!" Instructor Mei Lan chuckled while eximing in surprise.
Yes, this long red-haired fox girl was another teacher Tang Li Xue and the others had met in the trial to enter Myriad Foxes Academy.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and thought deeply: ''It seems this contest is not simple since so many powerful foxes participate in it.''
After 20 to 30 foxes who wanted to participate in the contest were on the grand stage, the party host began to exin the first contest to them.
"All right, let''s begin the first contest~! I call it, the stone betting contest!"
"There are thousands of fossil stones inside the room on your left."
"Those fossil stones can be empty or they can contain something extremely precious. Everything depends on luck."
"Each of you can pick one fossil stone and bring it back onto this grand stage."
"Thenter, we will crack open your chosen fossil stone in front of everyone to see which one can obtain the most precious treasure from the fossil stone!"
"Only ten foxes who can obtain the most precious treasures from the fossil stone can proceed to the next stage of the contest."
"Moreover, any treasure you find from your fossil stoneyer will be yours for free of charge. Are you excited? Are you happy? Hehehe..."
"Are you ready~?! Let''s begin now~!"
The party host started the contest after she exined the first contest to all contestants.
All foxes on the grand stage including Instructor Mei Lan and her three students entered the vast room on the left of the grand stage.
There were thousands of fossil stones inside the vast room, and their size varied from each other.
Those fossil stones were actually like turbid crystals, and no one could tell what was inside them until they cracked them open.
The biggest fossil stones were as big as a one-meter tall boulder, while the smallest fossil stones were only as big as a thumb.
Of course, the bigger the fossil stone did not mean the more precious the treasure inside it would be.
All of the participants immediately spread out as they hastily took and looked at the fossil stones one by one carefully.
Even Instructor Mei Lan also separated from her three students and began to choose her fossil stone carefully.
"Uhh, Little Xue... Should we just choose the fossil stone randomly?" Bingbing asked in a reluctant tone.
Tang Li Xue did not immediately reply as she frowned deeply unhappily.
Tang Li Xue knew that her luck in this kind of game was not particrly good.
Even in her previous life, Tang Li Xue would rarely win every time she yed any luck-rted game like this one.
''Damn it~! What kind of shitty game is this?! I thought the contest would be like a Beauty Contest or something like that! In that case, I would definitely have a pretty high chance of winning!'' Tang Li Xueined in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue approached the pile of fossil stones and began to examine them one by one, but she could not even differentiate which one would contain treasure or empty.
Even her [Extrasensory Perception] waspletely useless at this moment since it would only help her sense any iing danger ahead of time, not to sense any nearby treasure.
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment while murmuring: "s... I would definitely be able to find the most precious treasure if my perfect copy can use [Paranormal Intuition] at this time."
"Unfortunately, my perfect copy still fainted after she used [Paranormal Intuition] during the day to deduce the clue about the Heartless Cave."
Tang Li Xue really regretted that her perfect copy could not use [Paranormal Intuition] at this time, since if she could find the most precious treasure among these fossil stones, then she could obtain it forpletely free.
But a light bulb of inspiration suddenly shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind as her topaz blue eyes shone brighter in excitement.
"Wait a minute... Heartless Cave?! I am so stupid! How could I forget about that?!" Tang Li Xue jumped whileughing in excitement.
Even Bingbing and Silly Fox, who stood right beside her, were staring at her strangely.
Chapter 776 776: Cheating Again?!
Chapter 776 Chapter 776: Cheating Again?!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she closed her topaz blue eyes and began to connect the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in her Dantian with her [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline.
With her [Sun Domain] Prototype as the vessel, Tang Li Xue linked all of them onto her eyes through her divine ability, [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes].
When Tang Li Xue opened her eyes again, her topaz blue eyes had already changed color to bright golden.
[Fiery Bright Eyes]~!
Her [Fiery Bright Eyes] not only had the power to see through any disguise or invisible creatures, but it would also allow her to see through any obstacle or object such as walls or trees.
Tang Li Xue took one random fossil stone and tried to use her [Fiery Bright Eyes]''s see-through power on the fossil stone in her grasp.
Well, it was empty...
Even though there was nothing inside the fossil stone in her grasp, Tang Li Xue became very excited since it meant she could use her [Fiery Bright Eyes]''s see-through ability to peek at the content inside the fossil stone!
Tang Li Xue suppressed her urge tough out loud in exhration as she excitedly used her [Fiery Bright Eyes] to check the content inside the nearby stacks of fossil stones.
However, Tang Li Xue''s happiness did notst long.
Her expression changed again as her pink lips twitched in displeasure after she checked the content inside all the nearby stacks of fossil stones.
''Good guy... 80% of these damn stones are actually empty while the rest only contain useless junk?! What a scam contest is this?!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she rubbed her forehead to ease her displeasure.
She really wanted to call the event organizer for this party and scold them harshly for being ck-hearted so badly right now.
Unfortunately, she would not be able to exin how she peeked at the content inside the fossil stones if she did it, so she could only hold back her anger for now.
Tang Li Xue shook her head in great disappointment as she walked toward the other stacks of fossil stones and checked them one by one.
There were thousands of fossil stones in this huge room anyway, so Tang Li Xue could only hope she could find one rtively precious treasure among them.
''Sigh... If only Little Loki is not sleeping to digest all the treasures it consumed from Gu Family''s treasury warehouse in Garden City right now, I can ask it to help me find the most precious treasure in this room. With Little Loki''s treasure-sensing ability, it should be an extremely easy task for it to do.'' Tang Li Xue shook her head in distress.
The contest participants who had already chosen their fossil stone went out of the room one by one.
After fifteen minutes or so, there were only less than five foxes that were still carefully choosing their respective fossil stone inside the room.
Even Silly Fox and Bingbing had already chosen their fossil stone randomly, and then they patiently waited for Tang Li Xue so they could get out of the room together.
"Little Xue, have you already chosen your fossil stone? Let''s get back to the grand stage together?" Bingbing called Tang Li Xue from afar.
"Not yet~!" Tang Li Xue shouted back as she became even more panicked.
After running around busily for thirty minutes, Tang Li Xue had already held three fossil stones in her grasp, but she still looked around with her [Fiery Bright Eyes] as quickly and carefully as she could to find more precious treasure.
Around 80% of fossil stones in this room might be empty while the rest 19.99% contained something like metal ores, crystal stones, fossilized eggs, fossilized nts, treasure fragments, bone fragments, and so on.
Tang Li Xue was not interested in those things, so in Tang Li Xue''s eyes, those things were only useless junk.
As for the remaining 0,01%... They might be the three fossil stones in Tang Li Xue''s grasp right now.
Only these three fossil stones, which she had already carefully chosen among so many stacks of fossil stones, could barely satisfy her requirement.
They actually contained aplete bell-like treasure, a frozen lotus, and a green pearl.
Tang Li Xue panted heavily as her [Fiery Bright Eyes] actually depleted her energy pretty quickly.
If she used it in the fierce battle with the other skills and divine abilities, she might not be able tost even ten minutes before she waspletely exhausted.
"Uhh, I am sorry, Young Miss, but you can only choose one fossil stone." One of the event supervisors kindly reminded Tang Li Xue.
"I know. Give me some time, okay?! I will pick one from these three..." Tang Li Xue replied in a reluctant tone.
To be honest, she really wanted to take back all of these three fossil stones in her grasp.
After pondering it carefully for a while, Tang Li Xue finally had a brilliant idea of adding her basic [All Knowing Eyes] on top of her [Bright Fiery Eyes], so she could check the description of these three treasures and evaluate which one among them was the most precious.
--------------------------------------------------
[Bell of Poison Shade]
[Description: Innate treasure born from heaven and earth. It can detoxify and absorb any kind of poison. The power of this Bell of Poison Shade will increase ording to the number and power of the poison it absorbs.]
--------------------------------------------------
[Frozen Crystal Lotus me]
[Description: The top-grade spiritual me with over 10,000 years of umtion. It contains the power of burning heat and extreme coldness.]
--------------------------------------------------
[Storm Calling Pearl]
[Description: The innate treasure of heaven and earth containing the immeasurable power of wind and lightning. The power of this pearl purely depends on the strength of the wielder. If the wielder is practicing wind or lightning cultivation techniques, it could dramatically increase the wielder''s cultivation speed.]
--------------------------------------------------
''Holy cow~! The three of them are actually so precious and powerful?!'' Tang Li Xue widened her shiny golden eyes in shock and disbelief.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in great distress. She really wanted to take all three of them!
''Wait a minute... It should be no problem if I secretly tell Bingbing and Silly Fox, so they can take the other two fossil stones, right?'' Tang Li Xue thought excitedly.
Her idea might be really good, but unfortunately, the reality was far from her imagination.
The event supervisors had already urged Silly Fox and Bingbing to go back to the Grand Stage first in order to avoid cheating.
Only three foxes left in this room including Tang Li Xue herself.
The event supervisors had already kept urging them to quickly go back on the grand stage by saying their time was up.
Tang Li Xue nced at the three fossil stones in her grasp while pondering her choice carefully.
[Bell of Poison Shade] was surely an immeasurably powerful innate treasure, since it could grow without limit as long as it kept consuming powerful poison.
But Tang Li Xue did not really like ying with poison, so the [Bell of Poison Shade] was the first to be eliminated by her.
As for [Frozen Crystal Lotus me], Tang Li Xue already had me of Pride, so she actually nned to give this me to Bingbing.
Unfortunately, she could only abandon this [Frozen Crystal Lotus me] this time since she must choose [Storm Calling Pearl].
Yaya had already helped her very much previously in the Foxes Hunting Festival and The urgent mission in the Garden City, but she could not give anything useful to Yaya yet until now.
This [Storm Calling Pearl] was clearly a perfect gift to pay off what she had owed to Yaya after those two previous events.
"Sigh... What a pity for Bingbing... This me is really suitable for her." Tang Li Xue murmured in an unwilling tone, but she could only throw back the fossil stone containing [Frozen Crystal Lotus me].
After Tang Li Xue went out of the room and headed back to the grand stage with the fossil stone containing [Storm Calling Pearl], thest two foxes in the room actually picked the fossil stone that Tang Li Xue had just thrown before walking back to the grand stage too.
.....
Thirty foxes or so were lined up neatly on the stage while holding their respective fossil stone in their grasp.
"All right, it is time for us to break open the fossil stone they have picked~! Are you ready, everyone?!" The party host shouted to excite the audience.
"Ready~! Open them now!" The audience shouted in unison.
"Okay, let''s see... We will begin with thisdy with the biggest fossil stone!" The fox girl who had be the party host pulled one of the participants with the biggest fossil stone.
The fossil stone she picked was actually more than one meter tall like a boulder.
The burly male fox grabbed the fossil stone and carefully cut it open with his bare hand.
It seemed the burly male fox''s divine ability was to cover his barehand with a sharp energy like Tang Li Xue''s [Sharp Edge Power].
Chapter 777 777: Betting With Zi Yan!
Chapter 777 Chapter 777: Betting With Zi Yan!
The fossil stone, which looked like a turbid crystal, was actually hard like a diamond, but the burly male fox skillfully cut the fossil stoneyer byyer with his bare hand.
The young foxdy who had chosen the one-meter-tall fossil stone sighed in great disappointment after the burly male fox cut her entire fossil stone to pieces.
"Oh, it is such a pity~! Even though the fossil stone is so big, but it is actually empty~!" The party host eximed to the audience.
The audienceughed in unison at the huge but empty fossil stone.
The young foxdy quickly got off the grand stage in embarrassment while the party host was ready to choose her next target.
Most of the participants became a lot more nervous as the part hostdy stared at them with a teasing smile on her charming face.
Of course, Tang Li Xue also did not feel nervous at all, and she yawnedzily instead because she already knew the content of her fossil stone.
"Hey, you~!" Someone called Tang Li Xue from her right side.
Tang Li Xue recognized that it should be Zi Yan''s voice.
Tang Li Xue was toozy to argue with Zi Yan, so she decided to just ignore Zi Yan.
Zi Yan gnashed her teeth in rage as she walked to approach Tang Li Xue.
"You hillbilly fox, do you dare to bet with me?" Zi Yan muttered softly to Tang Li Xue in a tone filled with resentment.
Tang Li Xue raised her eyebrow and nced at Zi Yan as her interest was piqued by her provocative words.
"Oh? What kind of bet?" Tang Li Xue asked in azy tone.
"Let''s bet on which fossil stone is more valuable." Zi Yan sneered at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue hesitated as she really wanted to use her [Fiery Bright Eyes] to check the content of Zi Yan''s fossil stone first.
But Zi Yan would definitely realize it in an instant since the color of her topaz blue eyes would change to bright golden if she activated her [Fiery Bright Eyes], so Tang Li Xue immediately gave up her intention to do it.
"What do you want from me if I lose? And what will I get if I win?" Tang Li Xue asked in a curious tone.
Zi Yan thought for a few moments and replied: "If you win, I will immediately give you one million credits. if I win, you have to split up with Brother Li Wei and never meet him again in the future. How? Do you dare to ept it?!"
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered slightly, and she almost epted the bet on the spot.
One million credits was clearly an extremely huge amount of money for Tang Li Xue, but it was only a drizzle for Zi Yan.
Tang Li Xue might be very greedy for that one million credits bet offer, but after calming down and thinking deeply for a while, Tang Li Xue wondered if she could increase the bet further.
Tang Li Xue put calm acting and said in a mocking tone: "Only one million credits?! Do you not feel embarrassed at all? If any other foxes heard it, they would think that it is only a small bet for poor foxes."
Zi Yan almost could not hold down her temper and scolded Tang Li Xue harshly.
One million credits bet is only for poor foxes?!
I really want to see how many millions you have in your ount?!
Zi Yan took a deep breath to barely calm down her anger and asked coldly: "How many credits do you want to bet?"
"At least ten million credits~!" Tang Li Xue replied in a smug tone.
"Deal~! I hope you will not pretend to forget our better after I win the bet!" Zi Yan instantly epted it and said mockingly at Tang Li Xue while sneering coldly at her.
Tang Li Xue suddenly regretted a lot after Zi Yan epted her bet offer without any hesitation: ''I should say one hundred million credits instead...''
Meanwhile, the party host girl had already chosen another five other participants, but after the burly male fox cut their fossil stones, all of their fossil stones were still empty.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had seen with her [Fiery Bright Eyes], around 80% of all fossil stones provided in the previous room were actually empty, so the fossil stones chosen by most participants should be empty too.
Only the seventh participant was finally lucky enough to choose a fossil stone with something contained inside it.
"Oh~! It is the Magma Crystal Ore~! Not bad! It can be used as one of the raw materials to forge treasure. The price should be around two hundred fifty thousand credits! Congrattion!" The party host girl shouted while she introduced the treasure that the seventh participant got from the fossil stone.
As for the next participant, the party host girl actually pulled Bingbing!
It was not just Bingbing who felt extremely nervous, even Tang Li Xue secretly felt nervous too.
Tang Li Xue was too busy looking for her own fossil stone before, so she did not have time to peek at the fossil stone chosen by Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan.
Tang Li Xue shook her head in regret since she could not give the other two fossil stones she had found that contained extremely precious treasures to her friends.
"It is an empty fossil stone~! Another unlucky one~!" The party host girl eximed in a disappointed tone.
Bingbing also became very ashamed as she jumped down from the grand stage like the other failed participants.
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment, but there was nothing she could do to cheer Bingbing at this time since she would surely proceed to the next stage of the contest.
Then the party host girl chose to pull Silly Fox as her next victim!
Tang Li Xue no longer dared to hold too much hope for Silly Fox after Bingbing''s failure.
Even Silly Fox did not look as if he cared about his fossil stone at all.
He was clearly only climbing onto the stage with the intention of having fun with Tang Li Xue.
It would be better if he could help Tang Li Xue to win the contest, but he definitely did not have any intention to win the contest for himself.
But out of Tang Li Xue''s expectations, there was actually something inside Silly Fox''s fossil stone!
A blinding white light shone from the treasure inside Silly Fox''s fossil stone!
"Wow, this is... a fragment of divine treasure~! Wonderful~! Finally, we found a lucky guy among us~!" The party host girl shouted excitedly.
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock.
''What the heck?! I thought it was a piece of junk before, so it was actually a fragment of divine treasure?!'' Tang Li Xue thought dizzily.
Yes, Tang Li Xue also saw this thing with her [Fiery Bright Eyes] before, but she did not pick it up since she thought it was only a useless shattered fragment of spirit treasure.
Who knew that Silly Fox was an extremely lucky guy?!
Of course, the fragment of divine treasure was actually pretty much useless too for Silly Fox, but the material used to make divine treasure should be extremely precious, much much more precious than any material that could be found in this Immortal World.
Moreover, it had extremely high collectible value, so many rich foxes should be more than willing to buy it for millions of credits.
Silly Fox smiled in satisfaction when he received the fragment of divine treasure from the party host girl.
Then he stared with a pair of hot eyes toward Tang Li Xue while holding the fragment of divine treasure tightly.
It was clear that Silly Fox had already decided to give this fragment of divine treasure to someer after this contest was over.
Tang Li Xue did not realize Silly Fox''s stare as she became more nervous all of a sudden.
Since she could have missed the extremely precious fossil stone that Silly Fox had picked, she was afraid that Zi Yan''s fossil stone would also contain another priceless treasure she had missed before just like Silly Fox.
Tang Li Xue suddenly became panicked for a while before she realized...
''Err, I only promise to split up with Teacher Li Wei and never meet him again in the future if I lose, right? Then everything is okay... I might really die in poverty if I need to pay ten million credits if I lose...'' Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
So, what if she lost?
Splitting up and never seeing Teacher Li Wei again in the future meant she did not need to pay back any of the requests she owed to Teacher Li Wei, so whether she won or lost, she would still be the one who got the benefits, right?!
Tang Li Xue sneered happily after she realized it.
If Teacher Li Wei could read Tang Li Xue''s mind right now, he would surely spurt a few litters of blood in anger at Tang Li Xue''s shamelessness.
The party host girl pulled several more participants, but the fossil stones they had picked were all empty again.
Among fifteen participants, only Silly Fox and one fox girl participant managed to pick the fossil stone with treasure inside it.
Finally, the party host girl chose to pull Zi Yan among the crowd!
Tang Li Xue''s delightful mood instantly became tense once again.
This would be the deciding moment whether she would win the ten million credits or lose her chance to pay back the two requests she owed to Teacher Li Wei!
Chapter 778 778: Pauper Tang Li Xue!
Chapter 778 Chapter 778: Pauper Tang Li Xue!
Zi Yan''s fossil stone was not big. It was only the size of a basketball.
The burly male fox took Zi Yan''s fossil stone and began to cut it carefullyyer byyer with his bare hand.
Tang Li Xue felt even more tense, panicked, and nervous when she saw Zi Yan''s calm expression.
''Don''t tell me that she is cheating?! Maybe his sister that President Zi Hua had already specially prepared an extremely precious fossil stone for her?'' Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she suspiciously thought.
Unfortunately, there was nothing Tang Li Xue could do if that really happened since she did not have any evidence to prove it.
Then a dim white light suddenly shone from something inside Zi Yan''s fossil stone!
Tang Li Xue''s heart almost jumped out of her throat at that moment!
"Wah, another lucky one~! This is actually 10,000 years Stgmite Essense!" The party host girl eximed in a delightful tone.
"Even though the size is a bit too small, but there should be a few drops of 10,000 years Essense Milk inside it. The value is not much less than the previous fragment of divine treasure!" The party host girl introduced it to the audience.
The audience eximed in surprise and pped their hands excitedly.
Tang Li Xue was still frowning as she pondered: ''Err... So, ording to that host girl, the value of her thing should still be less than Silly Fox''s fragment of divine treasure, right? Oh well... It is okay. It meant I still had a high hope of winning.''
Zi Yan turned around and stared smugly at Tang Li Xue while sneering provocatively at her.
Tang Li Xue almost could not hold her urge to raise her middle finger at Zi Yan right at this moment but she decided to ignore Zi Yan and let herugh happily for a little bit longer.
The host girl pulled several other participants after Zi Yan''s turn but after the burly male fox skillfully cut open their fossil stones, all of them were empty.
Without realizing it, almost all of the participants in this contest had been already eliminated, leaving only five foxes on the grand stage.
The party host girl''s next target was actually Instructor Mei Lan this time!
Instructor Mei Lan stepped forward gracefully with her usual gentle smile on her beautiful face, but anyone who knew her could easily see that she actually did not care about the result of this contest at all.
The party host girl took Instructor Mei Lan''s fossil stone and gave it to the burly male fox, then the burly male fox cut the fossil stone carefully with his bare hand as usual.
Tang Li Xue was very curious about what Instructor Mei Lan could get from the fossil stone she picked.
''Instructor Lan should be able to use [Sonar] to detect if there is something inside the fossil stone or not, so it should be impossible for her fossil stone to be empty like the others. Unfortunately, she should not be able to judge if the thing inside her fossil stone is precious or if it is just junk.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
WEEEEENNG~!
Blinding green light suddenly shone as the entire space around the grand stage was trembling slightly!
Everyone including Tang Li Xue and the party host girl dropped their jaw and became speechless at the sudden shocking phenomenon!
"Innate treasure~! Innate treasure has actually been born! How shocking and spectacr is this?! Thisdy should be the real daughter of Goddess of Luck~!" The party host girl screamed excitedly.
Even the audience mored in shock and surprise.
"Bwahahahaha~! As I expect from my daughter!" Councillor Junjieughed out loud happily.
"Congrattions to Councillor Junjie and his daughter!" President Zi Hua and Teacher Li Wei who was sitting near Councillor Junjie politely congratted him.
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in disbelief while screaming in her mind: ''What the heck?! That green bell looks really familiar to me... No way~! That is clearly [Bell of Poison Shade]! Is it a coincidence that Instructor Mei Lan picked the fossil stone with [Bell of Poison Shade] inside it?''
The burly male fox politely returned the [Bell of Poison Shade] to Instructor Mei Lan while enthusiastly congratting her along with the party host girl.
After Instructor Mei Lan took back the [Bell of Poison Shade], she walked toward Tang Li Xue and threw the [Bell of Poison Shade] onto Tang Li Xue instead.
Tang Li Xue caught the [Bell of Poison Shade] in panic before it fell onto the ground.
"Instructor Lan?" Tang Li Xue asked in confusion.
Instructor Mei Lan pointed her ears and muttered to Tang Li Xue: "Do you forget that my ears are very sharp? I heard you want to take those three fossil stones, so I help you take one of them back. Just consider it as my reward for you having passed the Heartless Cave today."
"Mommy Lan... No, I mean Instructor Lan~!" Tang Li Xue cried with a pair of teary eyes because she was really touched by Instructor Mei Lan''s care and kindness.
As an orphan in her two lives, Instructor Mei Lan might be the closest figure as a mother that Tang Li Xue could imagine.
"But I do not want it..." Tang Li Xue pushed the [Bell of Poison Shade] back to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned and asked: "Why?"
Tang Li Xue blushed as she exined the function of [Bell of Poison Shade] clearly to Instructor Mei Lan: "This [Bell of Poison Shade] is surely a good thing since it not only can detoxify all kinds of poison but it also can get stronger without limit by ording to the quantity and quality of the poison it absorbs."
"But Instructor Lan... You should already know that I am poor. Moreover, I have to feed two greedy big eaters, Little Yaya and Little Loki. If you add this money eater treasure, [Bell of Poison Shade] then I am afraid..." Tang Li Xue could not even bear to continue to think about it further.
Just feeding Little Yaya and Little Loki already made herpletely penniless... If she had to buy an astronomical amount of poison to feed [Bell of Poison Shade], then Tang Li Xue would really have to sell herself!
"Of course, if Instructor Lan is kind enough to buy all kinds of poison for me to feed [Bell of Poison Shade], then I will reluctantly..." Tang Li Xue said to Instructor Mei Lan in a ttery tone.
Before Tang Li Xue could finish her words, Instructor Mei Lan already rolled her eyes and took back the [Bell of Poison Shade] from Tang Li Xue.
No matter how generous Instructor Mei Lan was, there would be no way she would pamper Tang Li Xue that much.
Well, it was Instructor Mei Lan''s creed to never spoil any of her students, or they might be useless foxes.
However, Tang Li Xue did not feel any pity for missing the [Bell of Poison Shade].
Innate treasures were weak and useless at the beginning, and they could not even bepared to the trashiest magic treasure.
But their advantage was that they could grow stronger without limit, and even surpass divine treasure level!
Of course, it was only theoretical since even if [Bell of Poison Shade] absorbed all of the poison in this Immortal World, it might be still far from enough to reach divine treasure level.
But there was no doubt that only in the hands of a rich fox like Instructor Mei Lan could the [Bell of Poison Shade] grow stronger quickly and be powerful enough to threaten even Spirit Beasts.
In the hand of a pauper like Tang Li Xue, the [Bell of Poison Shade] might enter Little Loki''s stomach first before it could grow...
"All right, thatdy seems to be the close friend of the previous daughter of the lucky goddess~! Let''s see if she is the other daughter of the lucky goddess~!" The party host girl whispered to the audience as she approached Tang Li Xue and pulled her to the front of the grand stage.
Almost all of the audience was grasped in shock and awe when they saw Tang Li Xue''s stunningly beautiful look.
Even the party host girl was bewitched and stunned for a few moments by Tang Li Xue''s extremely mesmerizing appearance.
Previously, almost everyone was focused on the participant whose fossil stone was opened by the burly male fox, so they did not really pay any attention to Tang Li Xue who had not yet had her turn.
"Wow, thisdy is so beautiful~! I thought our fox race as the most beautiful race is already extremely good-looking. But thisdy is clearly on another level than us!" The party host girl praised Tang Li Xue until Tang Li Xue lowered her head and blushed in embarrassment.
This was the first time the burly male fox almost slipped when he took the fossil stone from Tang Li Xue, but the fossil stone still fell on the burly male fox''s feet.
The burly male fox was so ashamed that he really wanted to hide away on the spot.
Zi Yan gnashed her teeth as she red at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with envy and jealousy.
The burly male fox picked up the fossil stone that fell onto the ground and began to peel it barehandedlyyer byyer carefully.
WEEEEENNG~!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
This time, there was not only a blinding green light shining from the object hidden inside Tang Li Xue''s fossil stone, but there were even the ear-deafening sounds of thunder echoing through the entire party venue!
Chapter 779 779: The Last Round of The Contest!
Chapter 779 Chapter 779: The Last Round of The Contest!
"Impossible~! Don''t tell me that... Another innate treasure is really born?!" The party host girl blurted in surprise.
The entire audience was boiling in shock and disbelief.
The innate treasures were extremely rare, maybe only one could be found in millions of fossil stones, but today, there were actually two lucky foxes who managed to obtain it!
It was clearly a miracle in everyone''s eyes!
As for cheating, no one thought that anyone could do it since even Nascent Soul''s Divine Sense could not sense what was inside the fossil stones.
At most, they could only sense whether there was something inside the fossil stones or it waspletely empty just like Instructor Mei Lan''s [Sonar].
Even Tang Li Xue''s basic [All Knowing Eyes] also could not see what was inside the fossil stones if she did not use it at the same time as her [Fiery Bright Eyes].
Tang Li Xue smiled while excitedly grasping her fist when she thought that her suffering inside Heartless Cave today was really not in vain since she managed to create such powerful and useful skill like [Fiery Bright Eyes].
"Wow, so amazing~! This beautiful pearl is actually a dual elemental innate treasure, wind and lightning! Compared to the previous innate treasure bell with only a poison elemental, the value of this dual elemental innate treasure pearl is more than just a double!" The party host girl shouted even more excitedly than before when she introduced the value of Tang Li Xue''s [Storm Calling Pearl].
"No way! That should be impossible! How could that vixen get innate treasure?!" Zi Yan muttered in disbelief as her face turned pale.
Zi Yan gnashed her teeth while clenching her fist tighter in anger and resentment as the blood slowly seeped out from her fist.
If they were in the Inscriptionist Association, Zi Yan would definitely have already scolded and used Tang Li Xue of cheating.
But they were in the congrattory ceremony venue where so many bigshots from the fox n attended, so she clearly could not do something so shameless like that here, or her older sister would surely not forgive her and punish her harshly for itter.
Zi Yan might always look vicious and rebellious, but she was actually extremely afraid of her older sister, Zi Hua.
Compared to Zi Hua, Zi Yan''s viciousness could only be said to be like childish mischief.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xue and squinted her eyes suspiciously.
Instructor Mei Lan had already seen that Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes turned bright golden when she checked the fossil stones in the previous room.
Instructor Mei Lan had already guessed that Tang Li Xue could actually use her newly created skill in the Heartless Cave today to see the treasures inside the fossil stones.
That should be the reason why Tang Li Xue was able to choose the fossil stone that contained the most precious treasure inside.
"No one should expect that this stunningdy is the real favorite daughter of the lucky goddess~! Let''s say congrattions to her~!" The party host girl yelled while pping her hands excitedly.
The entire audience also followed the party host girl and pped their hands in excitement.
While the burly male fox tteringly gave the [Storm Calling Pearl] back to Tang Li Xue.
An extremely charming smile bloomed on Tang Li Xue''s stunning face after she received the [Storm Calling Pearl], then she happily headed back to Instructor Mei Lan''s side.
When Tang Li Xue passed right in front of Zi Yan, she secretly winked at Zi Yan as if she was giving a signal to say: ''Hey, please don''t forget our bet! Quickly transfer ten million credits to my ount, okay?!''
But Zi Yan thought Tang Li Xue''s wink was actually mocking her instead, and she became even angrier until her face turned red.
"Don''t be too proud and happy yet! You are just lucky this time!" Zi Yan whispered to Tang Li Xue resentfully.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied softly in a cold tone: "You as the princess of the Inscriptionist Association should be extremely rich, right? So, don''t forget to transfer ten million credits to me as soon as possible, okay? Or I will tell your dear Brother Li Wei to collect it from you tomorrow~!"
After squabbling for a while, Tang Li Xue ignored Zi Yan''s angry stare and leisurely returned to Instructor Mei Lan''s side.
The party host girl and the entire audience were still looking forward to the next lucky foxes to rally up the excitement even more at tonight''s party, but unfortunately, the fossil stones from the next several participants were actually empty.
They could only shake their head in great disappointment, but for two participants to get the innate treasures respectively was already an extremely rare event.
Surprisingly, thest contest participant was Bingbing''s sister, Bing Shui!
Bing Shui gave the fossil stone she had chosen to the burly male fox, and he began to cut the fossil stone carefullyyer byyer with his bare hand.
WEEEENNGG~!
Another blinding white light shone from Bing Shui''s fossil stone!
"Don''t tell me... There would be the third innate treasure born tonight!" The party host girl shouted in an excited tone.
Then a small white crystal lotus that was emitting bone-chilling coldness and searing heat emerged from inside the Bing Shui''s fossil stone!
"No, this is not innate treasure... This is... actually a Spirit me~! Moreover, the quality of this Spirit me should not be low!" The party host girl stated in a shocked tone.
Tang Li Xue almost slipped and fell down when she saw the familiar small white crystal lotus.
Yes, it was actually the [Frozen Crystal Lotus me] that Tang Li Xue had picked before, but she threw it away in the end and decided to choose to get [Storm Calling Pearl] for Yaya.
All of the audience also mored while pping their hands in excitement.
Even Bing Shui who was on the top of the grand stage dropped her jaw and was stunned for a few moments.
She never thought that she could get something as precious as Top-Grade Spirit me from her fossil stone.
Previously, Bing Shui saw that Tang Li Xue was holding three fossil stones and stared at them for a long time indecisively.
After Instructor Mei Lan picked one fossil stone that Tang Li Xue had thrown off, Bing Shui also picked thest fossil stone that Tang Li Xue abandoned.
Bing Shui thought that she owed Tang Li Xue too much in the Foxes Hunting Festival before, so if she got something valuable from this fossil stone, she decided she would just give it back to Tang Li Xue to repay her favor.
But who knew that she actually got an ice elemental top-grade spirit me?!
Bing Shui clearly needed this ice elemental top-grade spirit me very much, since it could enhance the power of all her ice elemental divine abilities many times after shepletely refined it!
The burly male fox and party host girl gave back the [Frozen Crystal Lotus me] to Bing Shui while praising her for her great luck, then Bing Shui walked back with an expression full of hesitation.
The party host girl told all the lucky participants toe forward and lined up on the grand stage while holding the treasure they got from their fossil stone.
Bing Shui, Tang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan, Zi Yan, Silly Fox, and the young fox girl who obtained [Magma Crystal Ore] were lining up neatly on the grand stage as the spotlight illuminated them all.
The party host girl began to let out her speech to the audience.
"There should have been ten lucky participants who could advance to the next round of today''s contest, but who knows that only six participants are lucky enough to get something precious from their fossil stone!"
"However, that is okay~! Because we will only choose three final winners in thest round of the contest! Can any of you guess what kind of game we will y next?" The party host girl asked the audience.
"Hide and seek?"
"Treasure hunting game~!"
"Fighting in the ring!"
"Shooting the targets!"
...
Many audiences shouted their guess, but the party host girl shook her head to refute them.
"All right, all of you are wrong! Thest round of the contest is... Running Game!" The party host girl shouted excitedly.
"Boring~!" Most of the audience immediatelyined in disappointment.
But the party host girl chuckled while exining in a mysterious tone: "Of course, our Running Game is not the usual boring game like a marathon. You will understand it really soon~!"
The party host girl faced Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and the other participants, then said to them: "All participants please enter the door over there."
The party host girl led all participants to enter the mysterious door behind the grand stage.
Then a huge hologram screen suddenly appeared on the grand stage that showed all of the six participants who had entered the mysterious door, so the audience could see the participants'' every movement clearly.
Chapter 780 780: Two Routes!
Chapter 780 Chapter 780: Two Routes!
.....
Meanwhile, after all the participants including Tang Li Xue, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan entered the mysterious door, they actually arrived at a narrow cave.
The cave was not dark since there were torches on the right and left sides of the narrow cave. It was just the atmosphere of this narrow cave was quite creepy and gloomy.
The party host girl did not exin anything to them before, so they could only explore the narrow cave and proceed forward carefully.
On the way, Tang Li Xue suddenly halted her step as her [Extrasensory Perception] faintly sensed something dangerous in front of them.
Instructor Mei Lan must have also sensed the danger ahead with her [Sonar], so she secretly pulled the back of Silly Fox''s cor to stop him.
But their group seemed to reach a tacit understanding to not mention anything to warn the other participants.
Then the stone floor under the other participants'' feet suddenly sunk!
"What~?!" Some of them eximed in surprise.
Bing Shui acted the fastest as she condensed a pair of ice wings to fly!
Bing Shui immediately pped her ice wings rapidly as she rushed forward to catch the falling Zi Yan, so only the young fox girl who previously obtained [Magma Crystal Ore] fell into that hole!
The hole in the floor quickly closed again, but if anyone tried to step on top of it, they would surely still fall into the hole.
CLACK~!
Instructor Mei Lan leisurely snapped her fingers, then her slender figure instantly crossed the closed hole in the floor and appeared tens of meters away from her previous location as if she had just teleported.
Tang Li Xue condensed a flying disc below her feet with her [Energy Maniption] and easily flew past through the closed hole in the floor.
While Silly Fox''s body was shrouded in the ck [Lightning of Destruction], and he shed side by side with Tang Li Xue.
The final round of the contest had just begun, but one of the participants actually got eliminated so early.
Of course, no one really cared about the fox girl who got eliminated early, but it surely made them even more wary of the road ahead of them.
After proceeding their way carefully for more than ten minutes, the narrow cave was split into two routes.
There was something written on the top of each route.
On the left route, it was written ''Death''.
On the right route, it was written ''Life''.
"Life and Death?" Tang Li Xue frowned after she read the words written on the top of each route.
Silly Fox scratched the back of his head in confusion and asked: "Which route we should take?"
Instructor Mei Lan did not immediately answer as she pondered carefully.
But Zi Yan chuckled mockingly at them as she walked toward the ''Life'' route while saying in a tone filled with confidence: "Obviously, the ''Life'' route should be safer~! "
Bing Shui followed Zi Yan closely from behind, so both of them took the ''Life'' route.
"Let''s go! We only need to follow them from behind. Just let them open the way for us first and explore the danger ahead of us." Instructor Mei Lan said as she also took the ''Life'' route.
But after the three of them took the ''Life'' route...
BAAAANG~!
A stone gate suddenly fell andpletely sealed the ''Life'' route before Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox could react!
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched as she muttered: "It seems we can only take the ''Death'' route right now... I hope the danger ahead will not be too hard for us to solve."
Instead of feeling afraid or confused, Silly Fox became even more excited since he could finally be alone with Tang Li Xue.
He patted his chest and said to Tang Li Xue in a reassuring tone: "Don''t worry, Xue~! With me here, I will guarantee nothing can hurt you!"
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "It would be more than enough if you did not do anything to put us in danger."
"How could I do that?!" Silly Fox eximed in disagreement, but Tang Li Xue already walked into the ''Death'' route without paying any attention to Silly Fox''s reply.
In the ''Death'' route, Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox actually faced many traps, but they were only superficial traps such as hidden arrows, invisible wires,ndmines, trap holes, and so on.
With Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox''s current strength, those traps were no longer enough to harm them, so they easily solved those traps with their divine abilities.
After fifteen minutes or so, both Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox reached huge double-stone gates.
"So, we finally reach the Boss Room, huh..." Tang Li Xue muttered in a solemn expression.
"What does Boss Room mean?" Silly Fox asked curiously.
"A sacred room where the most powerful creature in a certain dungeon dwells. If we want toplete the dungeon and obtain the loot, we need to defeat the boss." Tang Li Xue exined seriously.
"I see~! As long as we can defeat the boss in this room, we can win this contest, right?" Silly Fox nodded as he randomly concluded.
"Err, maybe so... All right, stop asking and just open that door! Make sure to be really careful!" Tang Li Xue said as she pushed Silly Fox forward.
Silly Fox carefully pushed open the stone gates and entered the big empty room, while Tang Li Xue followed him from behind.
Both Silly Fox and Tang Li Xue only saw an enormous fox stone statue in the middle of the room.
"Wow, this statue looks so lifelike." Silly Fox nonchntly approached the enormous fox stone statue.
But the eyes of the enormous fox stone statue suddenly lighted up in green light!
"Watch out, you idiot~!" Tang Li Xue shouted out loud to warn Silly Fox.
Unfortunately, it was a bit toote...
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The enormous fox stone statue swung one of its four tails and struck Silly Fox heavily until he was thrown back hundreds of meters and crashed onto the wall!
Silly Fox embedded deep into the wall, but he slowly crawled out from the wall.
He coughed a few mouthfuls of blood as he slipped down from the wall and fell onto the floor.
Tang Li Xue could sense a huge amount of threat from the enormous fox stone statue with her [Extrasensory Perception], so she immediately decided to go all out from the very start.
Tang Li Xue hastily unleashed her [Sun Domain] prototype without any hesitation!
A brilliant golden light shone as a faint image of the sun formed behind her!
Tang Li Xue also condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang].
The enormous fox stone statue''s attention instantly focused on Tang Li Xue, and it swung two of its four stone tails toward her!
Tang Li Xue solidified a huge heavy me hammer with thebination of her [Energy Maniption], Profound Law of Heat, and me of Pride.
then she let her [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang] hold and swing it against the iing two stone tails!
"Let''s see if my hammer or your tail is harder!" Tang Li Xue murmured coldly.
BAAAAAAANGG~!
Who knew that it was Tang Li Xue''s huge heavy me hammer that was shattered instead?!
Even her [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang] were broken apart by the enormous fox stone statue''s tail attack!
Despite that, she only managed to repel one of the two iing stone tails, so Tang Li Xue still had to defend against the other stone tail attack!
Tang Li Xue quickly activated [Reflective Barrier] and created a transparent barrier with her [Energy Maniption] to defend herself!
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
Both her [Reflective Barrier] and transparent barrier were shattered so easily like fragile porcin, and Tang Li Xue was slid backward dozens of meters.
Even though Tang Li Xue was in a better situation than Silly Fox, who had received the stone tail strike bluntly on the face, because both of her defensive barriers had decreased the power of the stone tail strike, but she was still actually injured by it.
So powerful~!
''Damn it~! This statue is actually overwhelmingly strong~! Silly Fox, this is not the time for us to hold back! Let''s go all out now!" Tang Li Xue said to Silly Fox as she tried to take [Talisman of Regeneration] from her space pouch and use it on herself and Silly Fox.
But her space pouch actually could not be opened here!
Tang Li Xue could only sigh whileining: "I know thisst round of contest would not be that easy..."
It was clear that there was some kind of prohibition preventing them from using any external items or objects in this space, so they could only rely on their pure strength and abilities!
Tang Li Xue quickly canceled her human transfiguration and transformed back to her fox form so she could fight with her 100% strength.
Silly Fox also transformed from his human form to his ck fox form, then he shed angrily toward the enormous fox stone statue while his entire furry body was wrapped in ck [Lightning of Destruction]!
"How dare you hurt Xue?!" Silly Fox angrily shouted as he activated his divine abilities.
Chapter 781 781: 2 VS 1! 1 VS 2!
Chapter 781 Chapter 781: 2 VS 1! 1 VS 2!
[Blood Burst] plus [Blood Ignition] - Eight Times Amplification~!
BOOOOOM~!
Silly Fox struck the enormous fox stone statue heavily!
Under thebination of [Blood Burst], [Lightning of Destruction], and Eight Times Amplification of [Blood Ignition], his current strength might even surpass Tang Li Xue by several times!
Despite that, his heavy ck lightning strike only managed to knock back the head of the enormous fox stone statue a bit!
Tang Li Xue was secretly quite amazed by Silly Fox''s tenacity.
She would definitely not be able to recover immediately like Silly Fox even with her [Sun And Moon Aegis] and [High-Speed Regeneration] if she received the powerful stone tail strike bluntly right on her face.
The enormous fox stone statue looked pretty pissed off by Silly Fox''s [Lightning of Destruction] as it turned its huge head and red at him fiercely.
Then its eyes which were always shining in green light turned crimson red all of a sudden!
"Ah, damn~! That does not look good at all..." Tang Li Xue murmured in a solemn tone as she hastily set a destination point with her [Wind Burst Step]!
WEEENGG~!
The enormous fox stone statue actually shot a destructive crimson ray of light from its eyes toward Silly Fox!
BOOOOM~!
The destructive crimson ray of light easily cut through the wall leaving a long deep fissure as if it was made from butter!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue had already activated her [Wind Burst Step] a few milliseconds faster, and she managed to drag Silly Fox out of the destructive crimson ray''s trajectory!
If not for that, Silly Fox might have been eliminated from this contest by now.
"Nice save~! Thank you very much, Xue!" Silly Fox happily snuffed deeper into Tang Li Xue''s embrace.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and kicked Silly Fox away with her hind legs in annoyance while scolding him: "Stop ying around! That thing is too powerful and dangerous, so do not do something rash first until we find its weak point!"
Yes, this enormous fox stone statue might be extremely powerful and dangerous, but Tang Li Xue would not believe it if the contest organizers did not leave any way for them to win against this thing.
Tang Li Xue actually had many powerful abilities that could make her fight on equal ground against this enormous fox stone statue, but she also realized that since they were still in the contest, there should be many audiences watching their performance at the party hall like in the first round of the contest.
Tang Li Xue was clearly not willing to show all of her trump cards in front of the eyes of so many people... or foxes.
In short, she wanted to win against this enormous fox stone statue, but she did not want to reveal any of her crucial trump cards, such as her Regalia of Eclipse, [Sun And Moon Aegis], [Quick Restore], [Ster Banishment], and [Fiery Bright Eyes].
.....
While Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox were facing a difficult challenge, the group who had entered the ''Life'' route was also facing a difficult obstacle, but their problem waspletely different from Tang Li Xue''s group.
Back to some time ago...
Instructor Mei Lan nced at the stone gate thatpletely sealed the ''Life'' route and frowned deeply in worry when she thought that her two students would enter the ''Death'' route.
But she immediately shook her head while muttering in relief: "This is just a contest, so their life should not be in danger."
Just like Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox, their group also faced many traps such as hidden arrows, invisible wires,ndmines, trap holes, and so on.
With Bing Shui and Zi Yan cleaning all the traps in front of her, Instructor Mei Lan walked quite leisurely behind them without doing anything.
It did not take long for their group to reach the huge double-stone gates too.
When Bing Shui, Zi Yan, and Instructor Mei Lan entered the huge stone room, what they saw waspletely different from Tang Li Xue''s group.
There was only a golden key on the top of the altar in the middle of the huge stone room.
Something was written on the altar, so Bing Shui, Zi Yan, and Instructor Mei Lan approached the altar together and read it.
"Only one participant can use this golden key to open the door to the finish line."
The expressions of Bing Shui and Zi Yan immediately changed after they read the words written on the altar, then they stared vigntly at Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to pay any attention to them as she chuckled and muttered in amusement: "I see... So, the ''life'' route means only one participant can pass this route alive? Truly interesting~!"
Instructor Mei Lan showed her soothing smile gently while saying to Bing Shui and Zi Yan: "Now I am relieved that my two students did not enter this route too. I am really sorry, but my old man said that I have to win this contest, so..."
"I do not believe we cannot defeat her together! Let''s go, Bing Shui~!" Zi Yan shouted to Bing Shui.
"Yes, teacher Zi Yan!" Bing Shui replied in a firm tone.
[Icy Winter Rhino]~!
[Purple me Whip]~!
Bing Shui''s extremely cold energy formed a huge white rhino, while Zi Yan''s purple me condensed into a long purple me whip!
The [Icy Winter Rhino] charged angrily toward Instructor Mei Lan while Zi Yan swung her [Purple me Whip] toward Instructor Mei Lan too!
[Vibration Construct] - High-Frequency Pulsating Barrier!
BAAAAAANNG~! BOOOOOOOM~!
Not only did the attack from Bing Shui and Zi Yan fail to touch Instructor Mei Lan, but their [Icy Winter Rhino] and [Purple me Whip] were shattered apart by Instructor Mei Lan''s barrier instead!
"I would really appreciate it if you two immediately surrendered without putting up any futile struggle, but it seems impossible. Sigh... I really do not want to lower myself to fight against the foxes with the same generation as my students, but it looks like I have no other choice." Instructor Mei Lan sighed as she tried to advise them.
Of course, Bing Shui and Zi Yan would not just give up after hearing Instructor Mei Lan''s few words, so they tried to attack her again instead.
CLAAAAAAAAAAPPPP~~!!!
Instructor Mei Lan suddenly pped her hands together.
Her [Heavenly Sound] not only amplified the volume of her pping sound but also enhanced the extreme vibration of [Demonic Tune] by many times!
When the extreme vibration from Instructor Mei Lan''s deafening pping sound made the wall around her, the floor below, and even the ceiling shuddered violently.
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
It not only managed to break the simultaneous attack from Bing Shui and Zi Yan but also threw them back more than fifty meters.
Both Bing Shui and Zi Yan still felt as if their head had been hit heavily by a hammer, and they could not recover from their extreme dizziness for a while.
Before they could recover, Instructor Mei Lan alreadyunched another attack toward them without any mercy!
Well, Instructor Mei Lan also did not show any mercy against Elder Yang before, so it seemed she only showed mercy when sparring against her students before.
[Vibration Construct] - Invisible Threads!
Instructor Mei Lan used her invisible threads to bind and pull the dizzy Bing Shui and Zi Yan toward her, then she threw both of her fists toward them!
[Demonic Tune] variation move: [Grinding Strike]!
PUUUUFF~! PUUUUFF~!
Both of Instructor Mei Lan''s fists struck Bing Shui and Zi Yan''s chest until they coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood and flew back more than thirty meters.
Just when Instructor Mei Lan nned to use her invisible threads to pull both Zi Yan and Bing Shui toward her, then kept hitting both of them like a pair of sandbags...
Her invisible threads on Bing Shui had been frozen and shattered while her invisible threads on Zi Yan had been burned to cinder.
Both Bing Shui and Zi Yan had actually decided to go all out this time as they canceled their human transfiguration and transformed back into their fox form.
That was the reason why they could destroy Instructor Mei Lan''s invisible threads so easily this time.
But Instructor Mei Lan was still in her human form as she chuckled in amusement and said: "This is really getting more and more interesting~! Come! Let''s see how strong you two are in your true form!"
However, Instructor Mei Lan was actually more worried about Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox.
''Since this ''Life'' route means only 1 participant can ''live'' while the other participants must ''die'', then the ''Death'' route should mean all participants should ''live'' or ''die'' together, but the difficulty of their route should be much higher than here. I hope both of them can also pass the test and win this contest.'' Instructor Mei Lan concluded in her mind.
[Winter Frost Dragon]~!
Bing Shui''s extremely cold energy solidified into a huge ice dragon!
[Purple me Divine Swords]~!
Zi Yan also used her purple me to condense twelve purple flying swords that emitted unbearable searing heat!
Chapter 782 782: Silly Fox’s Trump Card!
Chapter 782 Chapter 782: Silly Fox''s Trump Card!
[Demonic Tune] plus [Heavenly Sound]¡ [Intense Vibration Strike]: 1st echo!
Instructor Mei Lan swung her slender fist, but the terrible power contained in her fist clearly could not be underestimated.
BOOOOOOMM~!
Bing Shui''s huge [Winter Frost Dragon] was shattered to grated ice under Instructor Mei Lan''s [Intense Vibration Strike]!
But Zi Yan cleverly controlled her [Purple me Divine Swords] to attack Instructor Mei Lan from behind at this moment!
[Vibration Construct] - High-Frequency Pulsating Barrier!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Zi Yan''s twelve [Purple me Divine Swords] failed even to prate Instructor Mei Lan''s High-Frequency Pulsating Barrier. They froze in mid-air as if they bumped into an invisible but imprable wall.
"Oh? So, do you like to y with swords? What a coincidence, I like it very much too~!" Instructor Mei Lan yfully said.
[Vibration Construct] - High-Frequency Vibration Swords!
Instructor Mei Lan instantly solidified several hundreds of thin sharp swords in the blink of an eye!
''Oh, damn...'' Both Bing Shui and Zi Yan thought in unison as their expression turned pale.
.....
While Instructor Mei Lan was fighting quite leisurely against Bing Shui and Zi Yan, the current situation of Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox waspletely reversedpared to Instructor Mei Lan as they were actually facing so much difficulty against the enormous fox stone statue!
Currently, Tang Li Xue has already activated her [Wings of Freedom] in her fox form, so her speed has increased several times.
The enormous fox stone statue shot a destructive crimson ray of light from its eyes toward Tang Li Xue, but she dodged it at ease by swiftly sprinting in the zigzag pattern.
When Tang Li Xue was close enough to the enormous fox stone statue, she pounced and swung her front paw toward it!
[Moon Shattering Strike] plus [Sharp Edge Power]~!
BAAAAAANNG~!
Despite Tang Li Xue''s attack managed tond precisely on the enormous fox stone statue''s shoulder, but it failed to leave any damage on it!
The enormous fox stone statue disdainfully red at Tang Li Xue as if it were staring at an ant, then it swung its four stone tails to attack Tang Li Xue.
But Tang Li Xue avoided its four stone tails by agilely flying in the ''8'' pattern.
With her [Wings of Freedom] buff activated, it could be said that the enormous fox stone statue could no longer touch Tang Li Xue, but her [Wings of Freedom] could onlyst for fifteen minutes, so Tang Li Xue clearly had to defeat the enormous fox stone statue before her [Wings of Freedom]''s duration ran out!
"How troublesome~! This damn stone statue is not only huge in size but it is actually also extremely tough!" Tang Li Xue groaned in annoyance.
While Tang Li Xue was fighting against the enormous fox stone statue head-on from the front, Silly Fox also did not remain idle as he was attacking from its rear or nks.
[Destructive Force] plus [Lightning of Destruction]~!
Silly Fox was bathed in ck energy and ck lightning.
Even Tang Li Xue stared at him in awe since he looked so cool right now.
Then he shed toward the enormous fox stone statue''s ribs!
BOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
His destructive attack was much more powerful than Tang Li Xue''s previous attack, but the enormous fox stone statue only took one or two steps back, and there was not even any scratch or crack on its body.
On the contrary, it was Silly Fox who had be dizzy after he tried to strike the enormous fox stone statue with all of his strength.
The enormous fox stone statue immediately noticed it, and its green eyes turned crimson.
"Not good~!" Tang Li Xue eximed as she hastily used [Wind Burst Step], and her silver furry figure moved at extremely high speed many times beyond her maximum speed toward the destination point she had set.
The enormous fox stone statue shot a destructive crimson ray of light from its eyes toward the dizzy Silly Fox, but fortunately, Tang Li Xue had already pulled the dizzy Silly Fox out of the destructive crimson ray of light''s trajectory.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she managed to keep some safe distance from the enormous fox stone statue.
After Silly Fox cleared his dizziness, Tang Li Xue decided to discuss it with him: "This development is clearly not good for us. The longer we fight against that thing, the more exhausted we will be."
Silly Fox nodded firmly to Tang Li Xue and replied: "Xue, I might be able to destroy that thing with my trump card, but I need some time to prepare for it."
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter in excitement after she heard Silly Fox''s words.
At first, she had already prepared to reveal one or two of her trump cards to break that damn fox statue such as [Divine Possession] with Yaya or [Mystic Whisper], but who knew that Silly Fox also had his own hidden trump card to defeat that damn fox statue?!
Tang Li Xue patted Silly Fox''s furry shoulder as she muttered in a reassuring tone: "Don''t worry! Leave that to me! I will surely buy you enough time as long as you want!"
Then she charged fearlessly toward the enormous fox stone statue without waiting for Silly Fox''s reply!
But the enormous fox stone statue suddenly opened its mouth widely toward Tang Li Xue, and the purple destructive lightning umted in its mouth!
[Mother Earth''s Gift] - Great Earthquake~!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Just when the enormous fox stone statue almost fired the purple destructive lightning umted in its mouth, but the great earthquake made the fox stone statue''s enormous body sway violently to the right and left.
BOOOOOMMM~!
The enormous fox stone statue shot the purple destructive lightning from its mouth, but the trajectory waspletely off toward the wall instead.
[Mother Earth''s Gift] - [Mountain Crushing Pit]!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The solid stone floor under the enormous fox stone statue''s feet suddenly sunk to trap it inside the deep hole, then the deep hole quickly shrunk as if it wanted to bury the fox stone statue inside it!
But the enormous fox stone statue clearly has unparalleled strength, and it could easily break free and jump out from the deep hole created by Tang Li Xue''s [Mother Earth''s Gift].
Of course, Tang Li Xue would not let it out from the deep hole that easily!
"How dare you break my previous me hammer! Then I will let you try this~!" Tang Li Xue angrily said as she urged her [Mother Earth''s Gift] again.
[Earth Stomping Hammer]!
A huge heavy pir created from the ceiling above suddenly fell heavily toward the enormous fox stone statue just as it jumped out from the deep hole!
BBOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!
The huge heavy pir stomped and pounded the enormous fox stone statue mercilessly and made it fall back into the deep hole!
Right at this time, Silly Fox had already prepared to unleash its trump card.
He took a deep breath and activated his divine abilities once again!
[Blood Burst] plus [Blood Ignition] - Eight Times Amplification~!
But it did not just stop there...
Nine Times... Ten Times... Eleven Times... Twelve Times...
Twelve times amplification should be Silly Fox''s maximum limit his body could handle, but he still forcefully pushed his divine abilities past his limit!
Fourteen... Sixteen... Eighteen...
[Blood Burst] plus [Blood Ignition] - Twenty Times Amplification~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
The veins of his entire body were bulging, and he looked extremely horrible right now.
Some parts of his veins even exploded and spurted out blood, but he still forcefully maintained his current state!
[Destructive Force] plus [Lightning of Destruction]...
Silly Fox slowlypressed both of these extremely destructive powers into one single pitch-ck bullet!
"Xue, please avoid this on time ten secondster. This is my newly created skill, so even I cannot estimate how powerful this skill would be!" Silly Fox shouted to warn Tang Li Xue in a solemn tone.
With her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue could also sense the hair-raising destructive power kept umting right behind her.
She almost turned around and ran away in reflex, but she immediately halted her step since she still needed to keep the enormous fox stone statue busy for at least ten more seconds!
When the enormous fox stone statue was still struggling to get out of the deep hole that trapped it, Tang Li Xue unleashed another attack to make it unable to get out from that hole.
[Mother Earth''s Gift] - [Double Earth Stomping Hammers]!
Two huge heavy pirs created from the solid stone floor suddenly appeared to crush the enormous fox stone statue from its right and left sides!
The huge heavy pirs mped the enormous fox stone statue between them and made it unable to move around for a few moments!
"This is the timing~! Go! Do it now, Silly Fox~!" Tang Li Xue yelled as she activated her [Wind Burst Step] to get out from there as quickly as possible.
"Go, [Void Destroying Bullet]~!" Silly Fox muttered softly.
Chapter 783 783: [Void Destroying Bullet]!
Chapter 783 Chapter 783: [Void Destroying Bullet]!
Silly Foxpressed his [Destructive Force] and [Lightning of Destruction] into a pill-sized bullet.
Despite its small size, his [Void Destroying Bullet] clearly contained devastating explosive power!
Silly Fox shot his [Void Destroying Bullet] toward the enormous fox stone statue that was currently trapped between two huge heavy pirs created by Tang Li Xue''s [Mother Earth''s Gift]!
Surprisingly, the speed of Silly Fox''s [Void Destroying Bullet] was actually as astonishing as its destructive power!
Even Tang Li Xue could not see the movement trajectory of [Void Destroying Bullet] but it had already reached the enormous fox stone statue!
BOOOOOOOMM~!
The [Void Destroying Bullet] instantly exploded devastatingly in the form of a ck destructive lightning dome as it hit the enormous fox stone statue!
Even though both Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox were already more than a hundred meters away from the enormous fox stone statue, they still got affected by the extremely powerful shockwave and thrown off even further from the center of the explosion!
Tang Li Xue had already stabbed her tails and paws deeper into the stone floor, but she was still thrown back by the violent shockwave until she crashed into the wall behind her.
After some time, the devastating explosion finally calmed down and the ck destructive lightning dome got smaller and smaller before it finally disappearedpletely.
Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox slowly stood up again while staring at the half-destroyed big stone room in astonishment.
"Holy cow, Silly Fox... That skill of yours is really too powerful~! Why do you not use it from the start?!" Tang Li Xue praised Silly Fox generously.
Tang Li Xue could even faintly sense the terrifying Profound Law of Destruction from Silly Fox''s [Void Destroying Bullet].
Of course, the quality of the Profound Law of Destruction contained in Silly Fox''s [Void Destroying Bullet] was still not even half as good as [Void Piercing Arrow].
But if he could diligently practice and perfect his [Void Destroying Bullet], it would definitely surpass even [Void Piercing Arrow] someday!
Silly Fox puffed his chest proudly after he heard Tang Li Xue praising him, but when he wanted to say something to Tang Li Xue...
"Cough, cough, cough..." Silly Fox suddenly coughed so much blood, and even his consciousness became blurry.
"Silly Fox?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in a worried tone, but Silly Fox had already fallen unconscious.
When Tang Li Xue checked Silly Fox''s condition, she immediately realized that Silly Fox had actually pushed himself past his limit to shoot the previous [Void Destroying Bullet], and his entire body was already in tatter right now.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to take out her [Talisman of Regeneration] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery], then used them to cure Silly Fox.
Unfortunately, she could not open her space pouch here, so she could not take out [Talisman of Regeneration] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] from her space pouch.
But their misfortune actually did not end there...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Tang Li Xue turned around to look at the source where the rumbling sounds came from, and she found out that there was a fist-sized green core floating in the middle of this big stone room.
The fist-sized green core began to attract the surrounding stones like a ck hole, and the stones attached to the green core began to solidify into something!
"Oh, damn... This is not looking good for us at all..." Tang Li Xue muttered in a trembling voice.
Tang Li Xue immediately concluded that the fist-sized green core should be the previous enormous fox stone statue''s core, and the enormous fox stone statue should be resurrected again soon!
Tang Li Xue had thought of destroying the fist-sized green core before the enormous fox stone statue was resurrected, but she quickly denied that idea.
Even Silly Fox''s extremely destructive [Void Destroying Bullet] failed to destroy that fist-sized green core, so how could she destroy it with her current strength... Well, unless she dared to use [Supernova Explosion Bomb].
But the Phoenix of Pride was still in deep sleep to digest Primal Chaos Energy, and even if the Phoenix of Pride was already awake, Tang Li Xue still did not dare to use a suicidal move like [Supernova Explosion Bomb] carelessly.
"No, this enormous fox stone statue is clearly too powerful for us to defeat, so how could they force us to..." Tang Li Xue agitatedly muttered, but she immediately realized something extremely crucial.
"Wait a minute... Damn, we are really so stupid~! No one says we should defeat this monstrous thing! The party host clearly stated previously that this is a Running Game!" Tang Li Xue murmured in realization.
Yes, Tang Li Xue finally realized that their task was not to defeat the enormous fox stone statue but actually to RUN AWAY from it until they reached the finish line!
Tang Li Xue hastily used her [Energy Maniption] to create thick wires and used the wires to tie the fainted Silly Fox tightly on her back!
Then Tang Li Xue swiftly ran out from the big stone room!
Silly Fox''s [Void Destroying Bullet] had already destroyed the closed stone gates that obstructed their way, so Tang Li Xue just needed to run away through that passage!
After a few breaths, the enormous fox stone statue had finally recovered back to its peak condition!
WEEENG~!
Its stone eyes began to shine with green light once again.
It quickly scanned the entire big stone room but failed to find Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox!
Without any hesitation, the enormous fox stone statue rushed into the passage agilely to chase after Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox!
Tang Li Xue thought it would be easy for her to run away from the enormous fox stone statue with her current speed since she still had the [Wings of Freedom] buff.
Unfortunately, she failed to calcte the various traps inside the passage that could slow her down!
Hundreds of poisonous arrows shot out from the wall and ceiling, but Tang Li Xue managed to avoid them all by a hairbreadth without any wasted movement.
Before she could rx, there were guillotine des fell from above!
However, Tang Li Xue could still dodge them using [Wind Burst Step]!
After dodging several traps in session, the enormous fox stone statue actually managed to catch up with her from behind!
The enormous fox stone statue'' green light eyes turned crimson just as it saw Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox!
"This damned ugly statue~!" Tang Li Xue cursed in annoyance.
This long corridor was straight, so there was no ce for Tang Li Xue to hide.
The enormous fox stone statue shot a destructive crimson ray of light from its eyes toward Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox!
There was no way Tang Li Xue could block the enormous fox stone statue''s destructive crimson ray with her current abilities, so she could only try to avoid it!
[Wind Burst Step]~!
But the enormous fox stone statue had clearly learned to be smarter this time as it shot its destructive crimson ray in a Z pattern to make it harder for Tang Li Xue to avoid it!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue still sessfully avoided its attack, but with the cost of two of her tails!
Yes, the destructive crimson ray actually managed to cut two of Tang Li Xue''s tails!
"OUCH~! That is hurts, you bast*rd!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger as she withstood the pain.
She really never expected that the enormous fox stone statue could change the pattern of its shot rather than shoot it straight like before!
Luckily, it only severed two of her tails rather than her body...
Tang Li Xue might still have [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s three times of deadly blow protections, but the fainted Silly Fox, who was currently tied on her back, waspletely defenseless right now.
Tang Li Xue did not know if the event organizer could save Silly Fox at thest moment, but whether he got killed or eliminated, both Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox obviously did not want either of those things to happen.
Despite losing two of her tails, Tang Li Xue''s speed still remained unaffected. On the contrary, she was running away more desperately, so her speed got faster than before instead!
Tang Li Xue turned her head around to see how near the distance between her and the enormous fox stone statue, but she saw it sneering gleefully at her instead as if it was mocking her.
Tang Li Xue swore that she really had the urge to turn around and fight to the death against that ugly fox stone statue.
Fortunately, she still managed to keep her mind sane under the enormous fox stone statue''s obvious provocation.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue would clearly be able to get further and further away from the enormous fox stone statue, but there were still so many various types of dangerous traps on the path in front of her.
Her speed would surely drop when she tried to dodge or block those traps thus the enormous fox stone statue could use this chance to get close to her!
Just when Tang Li Xue was almost in despair when she saw the enormous fox stone statue''s green light eyes turn crimson again.
BAAANGGG~!
Something invisible but sharp suddenly cut the enormous fox stone statue''s head before it could shoot its destructive crimson ray of light toward Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox from behind!
"What is this toy?" A familiar gentle soothing voice resounded in Tang Li Xue''s ears.
The enormous fox stone statue''s head fell onto the ground and rolled toward a familiar figure.
Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise when she saw that familiar figure: "Instructor Lan?!"
Chapter 784 784: Contest Prize!
Chapter 784 Chapter 784: Contest Prize!
Tang Li Xue felt very happy when she finally met an extremely dependable ally like Instructor Mei Lan.
She sighed and smiled in relief, but before she could say anything to greet Instructor Mei Lan...
The headless fox stone statue already charged toward Instructor Mei Lan from a very close distance!
It seemed that the headless fox stone statue nned to crash its body into Instructor Mei Lan!
CLACK~!
But Instructor Mei Lan leisurely snapped her finger, and she suddenly changed location by appearing right beside Tang Li Xue as if she was teleporting.
BOOOOOOOMM~!
The headless fox stone statue crashed heavily onto the stone wall behind Instructor Mei Lan''s previous location instead.
"This stone statue has an indestructible core inside its body, and it will immediately resurrect even after we destroy it." Tang Li Xue exined it to Instructor Mei Lan as concise and clear as possible.
As if proving Tang Li Xue''s words, its severed stone head already flew back and connected again with the headless fox stone statue.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply as she muttered in an annoyed tone: "What a troublesome toy... It should be the prototype creation of the Refiner Department."
"Re... Refiner Department?" Tang Li Xue asked in confusion.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and said: "Do you really think that our Fox n only has the Education Department and Inscriptionist Association? There are many other departments such as Refiner, Pharmacy, Alchemist, and so on."
Actually, Tang Li Xue had heard all of them except for the Refiner Department, so she was quite curious about what this Refiner Department was doing.
Unfortunately, this was clearly not the right time to discuss it since the enormous fox stone statue had already attacked them again!
It shot the destructive crimson ray of light from its eyes toward Instructor Mei Lan since it might think that Instructor Mei Lan has the highest level of threat among their group!
[Vibration Construct] - High-Frequency Pulsating Barrier!
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Instructor Mei Lan''s barrier could onlyst a few breaths before the destructive crimson light prated and tore it apart!
"I see... So, it is the type with extremely high attacking power, but its speed is nothing special." Instructor Mei Lan concluded as she snapped her fingers to instantly change her location to avoid the destructive crimson light.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head and added: "That is right, but there are so many annoying traps that would slow us down."
"Okay, I get it. Little Xue, you can go first and bring Silly Fox out of here. I will y with this toy for a while to give you enough time." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue nodded with a solemn expression, and she immediately sprinted away as fast as she could with the fainted Silly Fox still tied to her back.
The enormous fox stone statue growled angrily as it tried to chase the runaway Tang Li Xue, but Instructor Mei Lan already did something to stop it.
[Vibration Construct] - Invisible Wires!
BOOOOOOOM~!
The enormous fox stone statue stumbled and fell down when Instructor Mei Lan''s Invisible wires tied its body and legs.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled while muttering in a yful seductive tone: "Where do you want to go? You do not need to be so shy. Let''s y together for a few more minutes~!"
The enormous fox stone statue red angrily at Instructor Mei Lan.
It roared full of rage as it forcefully broke Instructor Mei Lan''s invisible wires with brute force.
The enormous fox stone statue swung its four stone tails to attack Instructor Mei Lan!
[Demonic Tune] plus [Heavenly Sound]¡ [Intense Vibration Strike]: 1st echo!
Instructor Mei Lan also swung both of her slender fists to meet head-to-head against the simultaneous strike from the four stone tails!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Instructor Mei Lan was slid back dozens of meters leaving two deep foot tracks on the stone floor.
Both of Instructor Mei Lan''s hands went numb and painful, but her expression did not change. She still showed her usual gentle smile on her beautiful face.
"How annoying... So, those lunatics from the Refining Department even use us to test one of their toys in this contest." Instructor Mei Lan clicked her tongue displeasantly.
The enormous fox stone statue seemed to be in a hurry to chase after Tang Li Xue, so itunched another attack mercilessly toward Instructor Mei Lan.
"Then let''s see how durable this toy is!" Instructor Mei Lan also charged fearlessly toward the enormous fox stone statue.
2nd echo: [Demonic Tune] variation move: [Grinding Strike]!
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was still running while dodging the various traps along the passage.
The duration of her [Wings of Freedom] buff had already run out, and her speed had dropped significantly.
She also felt worried about whether Instructor Mei Lan could really match that enormous fox stone statue or not, but she also knew that she and Silly Fox would only be Instructor Mei Lan''s burden if they were still there.
On the contrary, Instructor Mei Lan could fight freely with her divine abilities without being afraid of identally affecting Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox if she was fighting alone against the enormous fox stone statue.
After fifteen minutes or so,Tang Li Xue finally saw a glimmer of white light.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she sprinted to that glimmer of white light, and she finally managed to bring the fainted Silly Fox out of the dark passage!
CLAP~! CLAP~! CLAP~! CLAP~!
"Let''s wee our first winner~! Oh, no... Maybe I should say two winners. Anyway, these two fox cubs have fought bravely and finally sessfully overcame all obstacles!" The host party girl shouted to the audience while weing Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to care about the host party girl''s chatter as she untied and put down the fainted Silly Fox before she took out Talisman of Regeneration] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] from her unsealed space pouch, then used them on Silly Fox.
After making sure that Silly Fox''s condition got better rapidly under the effects of her two talismans, Tang Li Xue stared at the dark passage with a worried expression while muttering: "I hope Instructor Lan can survive and win this contest too."
"Thank you, but you really underestimate me, right? How could I lose against a mere toy." Instructor Mei Lan replied while she walked out leisurely from the dark passage.
Despite her confident words, Instructor Mei Lan''s appearance was quite messy and embarrassing right now with her right hand bleeding profusely.
"Instructor Lan~!" Tang Li Xue eximed as she took out another [Talisman of Regeneration] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] from her space pouch, then used them on Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan''s current state was much betterpared to Silly Fox''s, so shepletely cured back to normal in just a few breaths.
The party host girl kept chattering to their group and audience, but Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan were already too exhausted to pay any attention to her.
Fortunately, they did not need to give any kind of winning speech in front of the audience, and the party host girl immediately gave the winning prize to them.
Tang Li Xue was still in her fox form, so she immediately went to the toilet to tidy up her appearance back to her human form first before she went back to Teacher Li Wei''s side.
"It is really such a great pity that spirit treasure dress is already ruined." Tang Li Xuemented after she wore an identical light blue dress but it was created by her [Energy Maniption].
Teacher Li Wei chucked as he tapped Tang Li Xue''s forehead and scolded her in a yful tone: "You ungrateful little girl~! You should be grateful that you can win that contest and get the ticket."
"Ticket? This is a ticket?" Tang Li Xue took a ck metal badge she got from winning the contest and asked Teacher Li Wei in a puzzled tone.
Teacher Li Wei nodded his head and replied: "Yes, it is your ticket, so you can follow us to explore the secret realmter."
Tang Li Xue instantly deted after she heard Teacher Li Wei''s words as sheined: "What the heck?! What is the point of that?! I did better restfortably in Myriad Foxes Academy!"
"All of the treasures you find in the secret realm will belong to you, or you can also choose to sell them to us and get a lot of credits in return." Teacher Li Wei added.
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Tang Li Xue''s mind turned nk for a few moments before she could process the information she heard from Teacher Li Wei.
"Wh... Wha... What~?! Are you serious, Teacher Li Wei?" Tang Li Xue asked in an excited tone while grinning happily.
Teacher Li Wei also smiled back at Tang Li Xue and said: "Of course, it is true. But you better not hope too much. There are so many unknown dangers and formations in the secret realm, so you might not be able to find many precious treasures with your current strength."
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding at Teacher Li Wei, but her mind did not think so.
With her [Fiery Bright Eyes] and basic [All Knowing Eyes] plus Little Loki''s ability to sense treasures and create a hole in any formations with its [Heaven''s Devour], Tang Li Xue was quite sure that she could obtain many precious treasures in the secret realmter.
Chapter 785 785: Strongest Race In The Current Era!
Chapter 785 Chapter 785: Strongest Race In The Current Era!
Moreover, Tang Li Xue recalled that she had caused such argemotion when she evolved into [Umon] Grade before, so her previous evolution might have already caught unwanted attention from many people... or rather foxes.
If not for Instructor Mei Lan and Councillor Junjie who helped her suppress the news about that matter, the shockingly strange phenomenon of her evolving into [Umon] Grade at that time would definitely have already been investigated by many foxes.
She was just evolving from [Common] grade to [Umon] grade at that time, but the phenomenon she caused was really abnormal.
Only half a year or so had passed since then, and for the Beast Race with many times longer lifespanpared to the Human Race, they might only feel a blink of an eye had passed.
If Tang Li Xue evolved to [Rare] Grade in this Myriad Foxes Academyter, she would definitely attract the greedy eyes of many foxes!
Not to mention, the phenomenon she caused would surely be much more shocking than before!
Even Instructor Mei Lan and Councillor Junjie might no longer be able to suppress the news about itter!
Well... Almost all beasts would surely covet her secret to evolve quickly to the next grade, right??So unless it was someone she could really trust such as Instructor Mei Lan, Silly Fox, and Bingbing, Tang Li Xue would rather choose to never let anyone even know the slightest clue about it.
Unfortunately, Fox n''s informationwork was too extensive, so even if Tang Li Xue tried to evolve outside of Myriad Foxes Academy, many foxes with higher authority from the Fox n would certainly get the news about it.
Just when Tang Li Xue almostpletely ran out of ideas, this Secret Realm of the Fallen Ancient Sect finally gave her a glimmer of hope!
Tang Li Xue squinted her topaz blue eyes as she thought: ''If I can evolve in this Secret Realm. Even if I trigger a shocking phenomenonter, I can me it on the birth of some kind of treasureter.''
''And if anyone noticed my evolution by chance, I just need to say that I identally consumed some kind of weird precious treasure in the Secret Realm which caused me to evolve again.''
The more Tang Li Xue thought about it, the more she found it more usible.
Unknowingly, the congrattions ceremony party finally ended.
After that, Tang Li Xue followed Teacher Li Wei to bid farewell to many other foxes with high authority, such as President Zi Hua, Councillor Junjie, and so on.
Instructor Mei Lan secretly warned her not toete for tomorrow''s ss with her telepathy before she followed her father, Councillor Junjie, to bid farewell to another guest.
Tang Li Xue also saw Zi Yan and Bing Shui who followed closely behind President Zi Hua with extremely battered faces.
Tang Li Xue was very curious about what happened to them in thest round of the contest that could make their faces look like that, but she did not dare to ask since it might make them angry.
Then she also saw some other familiar faces besides Bingbing and Silly Fox...
"Teacher Bai?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
"Yo, little girl... Hic..." Teacher Bai Wuchen greeted Tang Li Xue nonchntly.
There was also a beautiful blonde foxdy who smiled and nodded gracefully at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue had already seen this beautiful blonde foxdy several times at the mission hall, but she still did not know what to call this beautiful blonde foxdy yet, so she could only smile and nod back at her.
"Brother Feng~!" Princess Yan Fei dashed from behind the beautiful blonde foxdy and suddenly hugged Tang Li Xue''s arm with a joyful expression.
"Yan''er?! You are alsoing here?" Tang Li Xue asked in surprise.
She thought this congrattion ceremony party was only for foxes with high authority. Who knew that Princess Yan Fei as the princess of the Sea Beast Race could also get invited to this party?!
Well... Yan Fei was actually not invited, but she sneaked in with Silly Fox and Bingbing by following Teacher Bai Wuchen and the blonde foxdy.
"No, I came here to look for you since I thought you got kidnapped by a scoundrel!" Princess Yan Fei said while resentfully ring at Teacher Li Wei.
Teacher Li Wei: "???!!!"
Teacher Li Wei was instantly dumbfounded by Princess Yan Fei''s sudden usation.
"Pfftt... Bwahahaha..." Tang Li Xueughed when she saw Teacher Li Wei''s dumbfounded expression.
After joking for a while, Tang Li Xue still followed Teacher Li Wei until they rode on the luxurious ck carriage, and Teacher Li Wei escorted Tang Li Xue back to the Residential Building.
Princess Yan Fei, Silly Fox, and Bingbing could only ride on their previous conch carriage and followed right behind the luxurious ck carriage resentfully until they returned to the Residential Building.
Facing so many foxes with high authority tonight was very taxing for Tang Li Xue, so she did not chat much with Yan Fei, Silly Fox, and Bingbing after they entered the Residential Building.
When she entered her bedroom, Tang Li Xue took out the sleeping Yaya from the system''s pet space and put her on the soft pillow beside her, then she instantly fell asleep on the bed in exhaustion.
Tang Li Xue felt that she just closed her eyes, but the morning had alreadye.
Yaya, who had woken up earlier, immediately pulled Tang Li Xue''s cor to wake her up.
"Oh, damn... Instructor Lan had already warned me yesterday, and if I still camete..." Tang Li Xue stood up in panic as she swiftly brought Yaya to take a bath together.
Before she finished taking a bath, someone had knocked on the door of her room several times.
It seemed Yan Fei, Bingbing, and Silly Fox had already waited for her in front of her room.
After taking a bath and tidying up her appearance, Tang Li Xue brought Yaya out of her room.
"Oh, no... We are almost toote!" Bingbing warned as she quickly pulled Tang Li Xue and hurried out of the Residential building, then headed to the Education Department, while Yan Fei and Silly Fox ran beside Tang Li Xue.
*Ding!
[Wings of Freedom] activated! (Increase the effect of Agility stat by five more times and grant Fast Flight buff for 15 minutes duration.)
Yaya even waved her small hand and gave Tang Li Xue her blessing to increase her speed further!
*Ding!
[Wind Guardian Blessing] activated! (Increase overall speed by 50% and add auto-dodge effect. Duration: 10 seconds.)
BWOOOOOSSSH~!
Tang Li Xue swiftly grabbed the hands of Yan Fei, Bingbing, and Silly Fox, then flew toward the Education Department at a breakneck speed!
It only took a few dozen breaths to reach the Education Department building with Tang Li Xue''s speed.
When they arrived at the ssroom, Instructor Mei Lan had already waited for them right in front of the ssroom.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled in amusement when she saw her students'' messy appearance and said: "Not bad~! You should haveete, but you can arrive on time thanks to your speed."
Tang Li Xue puffed her chest smugly because she thought Instructor Mei Lan was praising her.
Instructor Mei Lan walked into the ssroom leisurely while muttering: "Minus five hundred credits to each of you for the flight speed vition."
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox instantly deted.
As for Princess Yan Fei, she was only a guest at Myriad Foxes Academy, so Instructor Mei Lan clearly could not punish her.
But Princess Yan Fei still followed Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox to enter the ssroom and attended Instructor Mei Lan''s lesson curiously.
Instructor Mei Lan sat on the teacher''s seat and began to say: "Today I will tell you about the overall global situation between the Beast Race, the Human Race, and the Undead Race."
"This information should not be our concern yet with our current limited strength, but I decided to tell you about it anyway to make you more motivated and less arrogant."
"All right... Between the Beast Race, the Human Race, and the Undead Race... In your opinion, which one is the strongest in this era?" Instructor Mei Lan asked her three students.
"Err... It should be us, the Beast Race, right?" Silly Fox muttered in an unsure tone.
Bingbing nodded in agreement and said: "Of course, our Beast Race~!"
Princess Yan Fei also added: "With the overwhelming number of the army of the Sea Beast Race, there is no doubt our Beast Race should be the strongest!"
Only Tang Li Xue had apletely different opinion than them as she answered: "The Undead Race? I mean they are known as the most terrifying race. Even Beast Race and Human Race must work together to fight against them, right?"
Unfortunately, Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and said: "You are all wrong. The strongest race in this era is actually the Human Race."
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Bingbing: "???!!!"
Silly Fox: "???!!!"
Princess Yan Fei: "???!!!"
Instructor Mei Lan''s answer was clearly out of everyone''s expectations.
Chapter 786 786:The Strongest Sovereign God!
Chapter 786 Chapter 786:The Strongest Sovereign God!
Even little Yaya who satzily on Tang Li Xue''s shoulder suddenly became more attentive in great curiosity.
Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Princess Yan Fei might be very surprised when Instructor Mei Lan mentioned that the strongest race in the current era was the Human Race, but the one who was the most shocked was definitely Tang Li Xue.
From so many pieces of information that Tang Li Xue had already obtained previously, there was no doubt that the Undead Race should be the most powerful and dreadful race among the three.
The Human Race and Beast Race who were extremely hostile to each other were forced to team up in order to fight against the Undead Race.
Despite that, they could only barely hold out against the Undead Race.
So, how could Instructor Mei Lan say that the strongest race in this era was actually the Human Race?!
That clearly did not make any sense at all for Tang Li Xue...
Tang Li Xue stared at Instructor Mei Lan in disbelief and puzzlement.
Instructor Mei Lan could sense Tang Li Xue''s confusion from her gaze.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled and shook her head in irony while continuing to ask her students: "I know what you are all thinking. That truth must be very hard for you to believe, but let me ask you something extremely crucial first. In your opinion, what actually determines the strength of the entire race?"
Before waiting for her students to answer it, Instructor Mei Lan stood up while muttering again: "The number of armies? Geniuses? Heaven''s Favored Child? Weapon? Technology? Intelligence? Information?"
Instructor Mei Lan walked back and forth in front of her students before she stopped and stared at her students before saying: "None of those truly matters. It might sound hrious, but what truly determines the strength of the entire race is actually only the raw strength..."
"The most powerful individual could be the pir to support and hold the sky above the entire race alone."
"With absolute strength, they can suppress everything with only their will."
"The ones who stood at the pinnacle in our Immortal World and hold our entire sky are called... Twelve Sovereign Gods of the Immortal World."
Instructor Mei Lan stopped talking to let her students digest her words.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, Silly Fox, Yaya, and Princess Yan Fei dropped their jaws in shock.
They became entirely speechless at Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
If the one who said that was someone else, they might have alreadyughed at them and used them of telling a delusional story.
Instructor Mei Lan sat back on the teacher''s seat and took a sip of her tea to moisten her parched throat before she continued to exin: "Sovereign God is the level way above Spirit Beast."
"Each realm or world could only have a limited number of Sovereign Gods because they are simply too powerful. So, the Profound Law of every realm or world could only allow a certain number of creatures to reach Sovereign Gods."
"The small and weaker realms can only have one or two, while some bigger and stronger worlds might be able to have more."
"Our Immortal World is an extremely powerful one among them, so it has twelve Sovereign Gods in total."
"I will not tell you further about the Sovereign Gods for now since that level is still too far from you."
"But I will tell you the situation from the previous era, so you can grasp the overall situation better."
"In the previous era, our Beast Race had three Beast Gods, Human Race had three Human Gods, and Undead Race had six Undead Gods."
"From this number of Sovereign Gods, you can easily tell that the strongest race in the previous era should be the Undead Race."
"That erasted for hundreds of thousands of years... It even reached the point that our Beast Race and Human Race must work together in order to barely resist the pressure from the Undead Race."
"Until somethingpletely out of everyone''s expectation happened..."
Instructor Mei Lan stopped her speech as she shook her head with an expression filled with irony.
Looking at Instructor Mei Lan''s face, she clearly did not want to tell this story about the glory of the Human Race, but there was no doubt that she had finally reached the most crucial part of her story.
In fact, this story might also be the main reason why Instructor Mei Lan was so wary of Elder Yang, and why she schemed to kill him before.
The curiosity of Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and the others had reached its peak, so they hastily urged Instructor Mei Lan.
"Then what is happening, Instructor Lan? Since there could only be twelve Sovereign Gods in the Immortal World, does it mean the Human Race already has more Sovereign Gods than our Beast Race and Undead Race together right now?" Tang Li Xue asked.
"Don''t tell me that those despicable humans stabbed us in the back and teamed up with the Undead Race instead?!" Bingbing muttered coldly.
"That should be impossible. No matter how stupid the Human Race is, they should know that working with the Undead Race would not bring them any merit." Silly Fox finally said something smart at this time.
Instructor Mei Lan took a deep breath and uttered again: "All right, calm down everyone~! Next, I will begin to tell you about the story that might be able to motivate you all."
"In a certain human cultivator family, there was an orphan human boy."
"His parents had already sacrificed their lives in order to protect the cultivator family from enemies. However, the family not only treated the boy badly but even humiliated and alienated him."
"At first, that boy was only a mediocre person. Without cultivation resources and cultivation techniques from his family, he crawled up slowly from the bottom and finally managed to join a cultivator sect as a handyman disciple with his own hard work."
"With his unremarkable talent, he only practiced both mediocre sword technique and cultivation technique again and again every day until he grew up. He managed to create his own unique sword techniques and cultivation technique that suited him the best, and he soared rapidly because of it."
"Then he returned dazzlingly and paid back everyone who had humiliated him from his cultivation family before."
"Of course, the patriarch and the elders from the cultivation family resented him very much for it, and they even made many schemes to kill him."
"Unfortunately, their effort was futile. Not only did the boy grow and be even stronger after that, but he even came to ughter all of themter on."
"After that, his sect said the boy was too evil and murderous, so they announced to expel the demon boy instead, and they would put a high bounty on his head."
"But that was actually the n of Saint Child and his backers from that sect because he was afraid of that boy''s talent. The Saint Child was afraid that the boy would threaten his position, so he did it."
"Under the temptation of that high bounty, the boy was hunted by so many strong cultivators."
"The boy was heavily injured by them, but he managed to barely escape from their chase. However, he was forced to enter the territory of the Undead Race in order to save his own life at that time."
"Inside the Undead Race''s territory, there were countless powerful undead creatures. That boy would definitely constantly be hunted by so many undead creatures inside the Undead Race''s territory, so everyone thought he would surely die sooner orter."
"Who knew that after so many years, that boy actually grew until he could finally y an Undead Sovereign God!"
"He reached the sky in one step and reced the Undead Sovereign God he just killed, then he became the fourth Human Sovereign God!"
"The first thing he did after he became the fourth Human Sovereign God was to tten all the sects and humans who dared to hunt him before."
"The blood flowed like a river. So many human cultivator corpses scattered everywhere."
"It immediately rmed the other Sovereign Gods."
"His cruel action angered the other three Human Sovereign Gods, while Beast Sovereign Gods and Undead Sovereign Gods also took this chance to attack him, so they could eliminate the Human Race''s new Sovereign God."
"But against so many Sovereign Gods at once, the boy was not afraid."
"He raised his sword and fought fiercely against all of them without any fear."
"In the end, the boy managed to repel all of the Sovereign Gods ALONE!"
"He was crowned as the strongest Sovereign God in the current era, the Tyrant Sovereign God."
"Even the other Sovereign Gods would rather choose to avoid his sharp edge every time they meet him."
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and asked: "It is a truly inspiring story, isn''t it?"
"Fortunately for us, the Tyrant Sovereign God does not have any feelings for the Human Race and even hated them very much because of his previous experience, so he never made any move to help the Human Race so far."
"If the Tyrant Sovereign God was on the Human Race''s side, then the Human Race should be the current strongest race in the entire Immortal World. Even our Beast Race and Undead Race must bow our heads to the Human Race if that really happens."
Instructor Mei Lan concluded her story as she checked her three students'' reactions.
Bingbing and Silly Fox showed a yearning expression as if they really wanted to rece the Tyrant Sovereign God and be the strongest one in the Immortal World.
But Tang Li Xue''s expression was quite strange, and Instructor Mei Lan could not read what she thought at all.
''What the heck?! Is that boy an MC from a certain novel or something?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in amazement.
Chapter 787 787: Weakest Race in The Current Era!
Chapter 787 Chapter 787: Weakest Race in The Current Era!
''What a cliche story development~! Oh, well... But mostly, the story about the rise of someone is always following this kind of pattern.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Even though the story of this Tyrant Sovereign God was truly inspirational, Tang Li Xue would still rather choose a slower but safer development route than such a fast but bloody torturing development route.
The story might seem cool, but the boy must have suffered a lot of untold pain and hardship to reach his current unparalleled strength.
Tang Li Xue thought that she was different from that boy...
She already has the System as her guarantee to reach or even surpass that Tyrant Sovereign God sooner orter.
Moreover, she has already suffered so much torture because of her illness in her previous life, so Tang Li Xue clearly did not want to take the Tyrant Sovereign God''s fast but bloody torturing development route that would make her suffer so much once again.
She really hoped to live happily with a lot of friends and handsome concubines in this life. Of course, she also wanted to be Fox Deity and obtain immortality while at it.
With such a bloody path that the Tyrant Sovereign God took, Tang Li Xue did not envy it even one bit although he could be unimaginably powerful so quickly by taking that path...
However, Tang Li Xue still admired the Tyrant Sovereign God very much.
It was truly hard to believe that he could actually y an Undead Race''s Sovereign God when he did not even reach the god level yet!
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly thought a dreadful truth in her mind, so she immediately blurted to ask Instructor Mei Lan: "Wait a minute... There could only be twelve Sovereign Gods in the Immortal World, right? So, the only way for us to reach god level is by ying the old Sovereign God and recing their position just like what the Tyrant Sovereign God did?!"
Silly Fox: "???!!!"
Bingbing: "???!!!"
Both Silly Fox and Bingbing instantly felt dizzy after they heard Tang Li Xue''s question.
But Instructor Mei Lan chuckled in amusement instead and replied: "Not really... All Sovereign Gods could only stay a limited time in their respective realms or worlds before they got forced to ascend to the Divine World where all the immortals, mythical beasts, demons, and gods lived."
"I do not know the specific information about it yet since the information about Sovereign God level is still too far out of my reach." Instructor Mei Lan added while shaking her head helplessly.
Tang Li Xue, Silly Fox, and Bingbing sighed in relief at the same time.
Although Tang Li Xue had her System to help her evolve to the god level, she was still not quite sure if she could bypass the rule of twelve Sovereign Gods in this Immortal World and be the thirteenth Sovereign God.
But she clearly did not want to face or try to kill any of the twelve Sovereign Gods when she had not reached the god level just like what the Tyrant Sovereign God did!
The risk was too high, and she might really get killed instead!
Instructor Mei Lan exined further about the information she knew: "Don''t be too happy yet. Every time the old Sovereign God ascended to the Divine World, they would leave something called Heaven''s Mandate behind. Only someone who has this Heaven''s Mandate can breakthrough to the god level and be the next Sovereign God."
"It was also because of it, that the number of the Sovereign Gods in each race remained fixed for so many eras until the Tyrant Sovereign God finally broke this rule by killing the previous Undead Race''s Sovereign God and forcefully taking away its Heaven''s Mandate for himself." Instructor Mei Lan concluded her exnation with an extremely solemn expression.
Although Instructor Mei Lan never mentioned it so tantly, but the information she wanted to tell her students was actually very clear.
In the several previous eras, the number of Sovereign Gods in each race should always be the same.
Three Beast Gods, three Human Gods, and six Undead Gods...
Moreover, the strength of all Sovereign Gods should be pretty much bnced.
Of course, a Sovereign God could kill another Sovereign God, and it had already happened several times in the history of the Immortal World.
But killing a Sovereign God was clearly not something easy to do even if the one who did it was also another Sovereign God.
Any Sovereign God could still be able to remain alive and recover even if their head got destroyed, their heart was shattered, or their body was burned to ashes.
So logically, they could still be able to send their Heaven''s Mandate back to their race before they diedpletely.
Something shocking like killing a Sovereign God without even reaching the god level and recing its ce had only happened in this era!
Instructor Mei Lan warned her students to never think about doing something suicidal like that.
If they wanted to reach god level in the future, the best way was to wait topete fairly with the other Beast Race to obtain the Beast Race''s Heaven''s Mandate.
Instructor Mei Lan concluded today''s lesson after she told her students about it.
There were actually many things that Tang Li Xue, Silly Fox, and Bingbing wanted to ask about, but Instructor Mei Lan refused to exin further.
Her reason was clear.
The god level was still too far from their current level, so knowing too much about it would only make them worry and unable to focus on what was in front of them right now.
Instructor Mei Lan decided to tell them about it not only to motivate them but also to make them realize something extremely crucial.
Among the three races, the Beast Race was actually the weakest race in the current era!
Of course, the Human Race should be weaker than the Beast Race if the Tyrant Sovereign God was not taken into ount, but it should be impossible for the Tyrant Sovereign God to just sit back and watch without doing anything if the entire Human Race was facing the threat of extinction.
Even the Undead Race became much more apprehensive and careful when dealing with the Human Race in this current era.
In short, Beast Race was currently in a very embarrassing position right now.
They were far from being as powerful as the Undead Race, and they also did not have a peerless undefeatable figure like the Tyrant Sovereign God from the Human Race.
No wonder the Qing Qiu Faction''s Fox n looked desperate until they were doing something like researching something forbidden.
Even Tang Li Xue could only sigh helplessly when she thought about it.
Just as Tang Li Xue walked out from the ssroom with Silly Fox, Yan''er, and Bingbing, Instructor Mei Lan suddenly called her from behind: "Little Xue!"
Tang Li Xue turned around and replied in puzzlement: "Yes, Instructor Lan?"
Then Instructor Mei Lan actually transferred a lot of credits into Tang Li Xue''s badge at once!
"Wha... What?! 10,000,000 credits?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock and disbelief.
If it was someone else who gave her, Tang Li Xue might have already felt extremely happy right now, but it was Instructor Mei Lan who gave it, so she became extremely afraid and worried instead.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes when she saw Tang Li Xue''s strangely worried expression as she exined: "Those credits are from Zi Yan. You should be thankful to me because I demand her to pay it through me today."
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone with understanding and excitement after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
"Oh, I see... So, these are the credits I won from betting with that jealous girlst night~! Hahahaha~! Thank you very much, Instructor Lan~! You are really the best~! I thought she should pretend to forget about it!" Tang Li Xue joyfully stated to Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan sneered: "Yes, but I would never let her do it, so I asked my father to collect it from her instead. Hehehehe... Ten million credits... No matter how rich she is, it should be pretty painful to lose that many credits at once."
Tang Li Xueughed even more happily when she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s gloating words.
Bingbing and Yan''er quickly grabbed Tang Li Xue''s arms from the left and right sides, then coquettishly said: "Brother Feng (Little Xue)..."
"All right, I understand what you want, beauties~! It will be my treat today, so you all can eat to your heart''s content~! Hahahaha~!" Tang Li Xue happily dered.
Silly Fox also tried to take this chance to hug Tang Li Xue''s arm, but he got kicked away by Bingbing and Yan''er instead before he could get close to Tang Li Xue.
Unfortunately, Instructor Mei Lan still had another important business to do, so she could not join them.
After they went out of the Education Building together, Tang Li Xue headed to the pawnshop first to redeem back her [Blood Sealing Chain] that she pawned before.
Chapter 788 788: Return to Daily Life!
Chapter 788 Chapter 788: Return to Daily Life!
[Blood Sealing Chain] might seem a bit useless for the current Tang Li Xue in the battle, but she could actually use it in many situationster such as for tying and interrogating some of her enemies.
After redeeming her [Blood Sealing Chain] from the pawnshop, Tang Li Xue took Yaya, Bingbing, Yan Fei, and Silly Fox to eat at the luxurious restaurant on the first floor of the Residential Building.
Tang Li Xue did not have a n to be frugal today since she just got ten million credits from winning the bet with Zi Yan, so she instantly spent hundreds of thousands of credits to order top-grade delicacies from this luxurious restaurant.
Tang Li Xue and her group had to admit that even though the food sold in this luxurious restaurant was quite expensive, it was really tasty and contained a lot of vitality energy and spiritual energy.
After they ate with relish until they were full, they nned to chat and y happily together for a day, but Tang Li Xue could only refuse their invitation in regret.
Tang Li Xue bid her farewell to the others since she still had to do many things for today and went back to her room with Yaya.
When she stepped into the courtyard in her room space, Tang Li Xue used her [Twin Moons] to summon out her perfect copy.
Yesterday, her perfect copy had passed out after she activated [Paranormal Intuition], but she should have alreadypletely recovered today.
Who knew that her perfect copy was actually angrily rebuking Tang Li Xue just after she got summoned out?!
"You cheapskate~! You just got ten million credits, and you treated everyone to eat so many delicious foods, but why you did not invite me too?! I want to taste those delicious foods too, especially that Nine Colored Herbs Sd and Salty Sour Spicy Meat Soup~!" The perfect copyined to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue could only roll her topaz blue eyes, but after she thought for a while, her perfect copy had already been practiced very hard and diligentlytely, she also helped her a lot in the previous Yan''er rescue mission, so she really should be rewarded generously this time.
Anyway, she won ten million credits for free without doing anything, so spending one or two million credits to reward her perfect copy should not hurt her wallet too much.
"All right, I get it~! I will treat you to eat anything you want tonight." Tang Li Xue smiled and said to her perfect copy.
"What?! Really?! You are not lying to me, right?! Yuhuuu~!" Perfect copy really felt very happy since she actually never ate anything all this time to save the daily cost.
Well... Every time she asked for it, Tang Li Xue always said coldly to her: "Why do you even have to eat? Your energy ising from me, so only I need to eat and replenish my energy. You should already know that we are pauper, so act like a proper pauper."
It was truly a mystery that her perfect copy had not rebelled yet until this point...
Joking aside, Tang Li Xue urged her perfect copy to practice the Profound Law of Heat and Cold in [Yin And Yang Chaotic Form] diligently first for now while she took Yaya into the house.
In the living room, Tang Li Xue finally took out the [Storm Calling Pearl] from her space pouch and gifted it to Yaya.
"This is a gift for you, Yaya. Thank you very much for helping me in the Foxes Hunting Festival and the Garden City''s rescue mission previously~!" Tang Li Xue happily stated to Yaya while patting her tiny head gently.
"Ya? Yayaya~!" Yaya babbled joyfully while smiling brightly as she received a gift from Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue had not exined the function of [Storm Calling Pearl] yet, but Yaya would always be extremely excited and happy even if Tang Li Xue only gave her a useless toy to y with.
Tang Li Xue really liked this side of Yaya very much.
Not only did she purely love Tang Li Xue like her own mother, but she never asked anything from Tang Li Xue, and she would do what Tang Li Xue asked her to do without any hesitation.
However, it was also because of this side of her that Yaya got fooled in the Foxes Hunting Festival by Tang Li Xue''s doppelganger and almost killed Little Loki before.
Then Tang Li Xue began to exin the function of [Storm Calling Pearl] patiently to Yaya: "This beautiful pearl is called [Storm Calling Pearl]. Not only it could enhance all of your wind-elemental divine abilities, but it would also add lightning damage to all of them."
"This [Storm Calling Pearl] is a dual wind and lightning elemental innate treasure, so it can grow stronger without limit as long as you keep nourishing it with wind or lightning elemental energy."
"This [Storm Calling Pearl] is really suitable for you, Yaya. Because it will grow stronger alongside you. You can refine it now, so you nourish it with your wind elemental energy as soon as possible." Tang Li Xue instructed Yaya in a gentle tone.
The might of [Storm Calling Pearl] was actually much more than that, but Tang Li Xue was afraid that Yaya would not be able to process all of the information if she told Yaya too much, so it should be more than enough to tell Yaya that much for now.
The most crucial function of [Storm Calling Pearl] was actually to allow the user to wield both wind and lightning elemental at once, if Yaya could reach that point andpletely master the [Storm Calling Pearl], she might even be able to be the Storm Sovereign God that could control wind, rain, and lightning in the future just like a dragon in the myth!
Of course, that was still too far away from their level... That was only in Tang Li Xue''s imagination for now.
Tang Li Xue thought it would be extremely cool if she became the Sun, Moon, and Star Sovereign God, while Yaya became the Storm Sovereign God, and Little Loki became Heaven Devouring Sovereign... err, well, okay, Taotie was actually far more terrifying than any Sovereign God so let''s just forget it.
At first, Yaya thought Tang Li Xue only gave her a beautiful green pearl to y with, so she was really surprised when this beautiful green pearl was actually such a precious thing.
Yaya pounced toward Tang Li Xue''s face and gave Tang Li Xue a lot of kisses in a cheerful mood.
After ying around together for a few minutes, Yaya finally sat on the sofa and began to refine [Storm Calling Pearl] calmly.
It might take some time for Yaya topletely refine [Storm Calling Pearl], so it could be stored and continuously nourished with wind elemental energy inside her body.
Tang Li Xue decided to leave Yaya and her perfect copy together in the room space, and she headed out from the Residential Building alone.
Her ck boxes were still in Teacher Li Wei''s hands, so she had to obediently learn Inscription Knowledge with Teacher Li Wei every day at least for now.
It was not that Tang Li Xue did not want to delve into Inscription Knowledge further with Teacher Li Wei, but she had way too many other important things waiting for her to do.
For example... She obtained the new Spiritualist Battle Style in Foxes Hunting Festival with two new skills, [Spirit Shock] and [Eyes of Illusion].
Both of them were surely useful in battle, but they were only at level 1 right now, so their effectiveness was quite limited.
Tang Li Xue had to practice using them to increase their level at least to level 2 and unleash them faster to be more effective and applicable in high-paced battles.
She had not even had any time to test and try [Eclipse of Sins] on any target until now.
Moreover, her new [Fiery Bright Eyes] had already queued for her to practice, just so she could apply it in the real battle, not just as a mere treasure-seeking skill.
Not to mention [Art of Concealment], [Essence Devouring Technique], and [Energy maniption]...
"Time, huh... Many people or beasts meet bottlenecks to improve their strength or cultivation, but on the contrary to them, I have too many ways to improve myself, but Ipletelyck time instead." Tang Li Xue sighed while rubbing her forehead to ease her headache.
It did not take long for her to reach Teacher Li Wei''s residence in the Education Department''s area.
Tang Li Xue knocked on the gate of Teacher Li Wei''s residence, and Teacher Li Wei immediately pulled her into his residence.
Without further ado, the handsome and kind-looking Teacher Li Wei instantly turned into an extremely strict teacher.
ording to Tang Li Xue''s opinion, she liked Instructor Mei Lan''s way of teaching much much more than Teacher Li Wei''s.
If Instructor Mei Lan cleverly gave enough portion for her students to learn every day, then Teacher Li Wei would force-
feed his students with so much knowledge every day.
Teacher Li Wei''s teaching motto was if he taught 1,000 pieces of knowledge to Tang Li Xue every day, she would need to learn at least 100 on the spot while the remaining 900, she could contemte them slowlyter at home.
As a result, Tang Li Xue''s brain was fried once again after Teacher Li Wei flooded her with so much new knowledge about Inscription.
After the sky turned dark, Teacher Li Wei finally allowed Tang Li Xue to go back home.
"Err, Teacher Li Wei... How about my ck ck boxes? Have you already..." Tang Li Xue rubbed her hands together excitedly while asking Teacher Li Wei.
Teacher Li Wei rolled his eyes and replied: "Not yet..."
Chapter 789 789: Tang Li Xue’s Daily Life!
Chapter 789 Chapter 789: Tang Li Xue''s Daily Life!
Tang Li Xue instantly deted in great disappointment after she heard Teacher Li Wei''s reply.
But her disappointed looks made Teacher Li Wei even more pissed off, so he pinched Tang Li Xue''s soft silver furry fox ear, then pulled it.
"Ouch, Ouch, Ouch... It really hurts, Teacher Li~!" Tang Li Xue whined in pain.
"I had told you that I needed at least a few days, didn''t I?! What''s with your disappointed look?! It has only been a day since you left those boxes here! I am an extremely busy fox, so how could I spend all day tinkering with your boxes?!" Teacher Li Wei scolded Tang Li Xue before he released Tang Li Xue''s reddened furry fox ear.
Then Teacher Li Wei added more homework by giving several thick books to Tang Li Xue and kicked her out of his residence.
Tang Li Xue put on a wronged expression, but she did not dare toin back to Teacher Li Wei since her ck boxes were still in Teacher Li Wei''s hands.
She would really cry in regret if Teacher Li Wei dragged out his time to crack open her ck boxes because of her bad attitude toward him.
The sky had long already turned dark, so Tang Li Xue hurried up heading back to the Residential Building as she threw all of the thick books about inscription runes knowledge into her space pouch.
The street at night in the Myriad Foxes Academy was still bright with light inside the shops or houses and street lights on the roadsides.
Foxes were nocturnal creatures after all, so there were still many foxes wandering around in the street or doing their respective activities at night.
Tang Li Xue really enjoyed the night stroll in this Myriad Foxes Academy while watching so many beautiful and handsome foxes in their human form walking on the street and interacting with each other.
Tang Li Xue''s seductive pink lips curved upward without her realizing it.
Her stunningly beautiful appearance plus her blooming mesmerizing smile should attract the attention of all foxes around her, but Tang Li Xue had already activated her [Art of Concealment] to suppress her presence to the lowest point.
Even without using [Ethereal Form], all of the foxes around her seemed topletely ignore her as if they could not see or sense her at all.
Unknowingly, Tang Li Xue had already returned to the Residential Building.
Somehow, Tang Li Xue felt some regret in her heart since she still wanted to enjoy the peaceful and magnificent night scene of the Myriad Foxes Academy for a little bit longer.
But she quickly shook her head andughed at herself: "Pfft~! It is so strange for me to be so mncholic tonight. Forget it, I can enjoy this magnificent night scene any time I wantter if I am no longer so busy anymore."
After entering the Residential Building, Tang Li Xue did not immediately go back to her room, but she went to the luxurious restaurant on the first floor and bought many delicious foods there for dinner of herself, Yaya, and her perfect copy.
After she returned to her room, Tang Li Xue used her silver card to open the door of her room.
Her heart was finally back at ease when she saw the familiar courtyard and simple house inside the room.
Her perfect copy immediately stopped her practice and woke up when Tang Li Xue opened the gate and stepped into the courtyard.
"Yohoo~! Finally, delicious foods~!" The perfect copy took away the food packages from Tang Li Xue and impatiently ran into the house.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes in disdain, but she still followed her perfect copy and entered the house too.
In the living room, Yaya was still sitting on the sofa with her eyes closed and a bright green pearl floating above her head.
Yes, Yaya should have still tried to refine the [Storm Calling Pearl] given by Tang Li Xue this noon.
"Let''s eat first, Yaya~! You might need a few days topletely refine that [Storm Calling Pearl], so don''t be too impatient, okay?" Tang Li Xue whispered gently to Yaya.
Yaya immediately stopped refining the [Storm Calling Pearl] after she heard Tang Li Xue''s words.
She rubbed her emerald green eyes while yawning sleepily.
But despite her unbearable sleepiness, Yaya still flew obediently to Tang Li Xue and gave Tang Li Xue a wee back kiss on her cheek, then sat on her right shoulderzily.
When Tang Li Xue brought the sleepy Yaya to the dining room, her perfect copy had already started eating first before them.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched in annoyance, and she scolded her perfect copy because of her greediness.
After arguing yfully for a while, they finally finished their dinner very quickly.
Yaya went straight to the bedroom to sleep, while Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy busily continued to practice instead.
Her perfect copy was still practicing the Profound Law of Heat and Cold from [Yin And Yang Chaotic Form].
After all, it really needed an extremely long grinding process, since it could only improve 0.02% for every eight hours.
Without persistent effort, Tang Li Xue might have taken a much longer time topletely master the Profound Law of Heat and Cold and perfect her [Sun And Moon Domain] prototype.
As for the real Tang Li Xue, she decided to train the new skills of her Spiritualist Battle Style, [Spirit Shock] and [Eyes of Illusion].
She wanted to improve both of them to level 2 as soon as possible.
She also practiced unleashing them faster, so she could surprise her enemies more in the real fast-paced battle using these two skills in the future.
When the morning sunlight entered through the gap in the window, Yaya slowly woke up as early as usual, then she quickly reminded Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue stopped practicing as she quickly brought Yaya to take a bath together.
After dressing and tidying up their appearance, Tang Li Xue brought Yaya out of her room space.
Her perfect copy was still too focused on practicing, so they did not bother to interrupt or say goodbye to her.
Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Yan Fei had also just gotten out of their room when Tang Li Xue closed the door of her room.
Yan Fei: "Hey, Brother Feng~!"
Silly Fox: "You got up so early today, Xue~!"
Bingbing: "Good morning, Little Xue~!"
Yan Fei and Bingbing delightfully hugged Tang Li Xue''s right and left arms, while Silly Fox also got his spare of Tang Li Xue''s morning kick full of love when he tried to hug Tang Li Xue from the front.
They headed out from the Residential Building and walked to the Education Department Building together while chatting happily with each other.
They walked leisurely today since they woke up much earlier than usual.
Well... To be honest, all of them actually always woke up early except for Tang Li Xue, but they came almostte every day because they waited for Tang Li Xue...
After they entered the Education Department Building, Instructor Mei Lan had already waited for them in front of the ssroom.
Instructor Mei Lan led them to enter the ssroom.
Tang Li Xue, Silly Fox, Yan Fei, and Bingbing sat in the most front student seats, while Instructor Mei Lan sat on the teacher''s seat in front of the ssroom.
Instructor Mei Lan showed her usual gentle smile which made all of her students shudder in fright.
When Tang Li Xue and the others were thinking about what kind of mistake they had already made to piss off Instructor Mei Lan, Instructor Mei Lan spoke to them: "There will be no lesson for today. Our only activity today is to watch this."
Instructor Mei Lan took out some kind of device from his space pouch and a hologram projection screen suddenly appeared in front of the ssroom.
Tang Li Xue: "This is..."
Silly Fox: "An arena?"
"Bingbing: "Why we should watch this?"
Yan Fei: "....."
When Tang Li Xue and the others werepletely puzzled, two beautiful figures suddenly appeared on the hologram projection screen.
"Meng Yue?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
Tang Li Xue and the others immediately understood what they had to watch today.
It was actually the final match of the Foxes Hunting Festival!
Meng Yue against the heroic ck-haired fox girl!
Foxes Hunting Festival will only be held once every ten years, so this final match definitely could not be missed!
Unfortunately, Meng Yue and the heroic ck-haired fox girl were both from the Qing Qiu Faction, so it greatly decreased the excitement of the audiencepared to the previous Foxes Hunting Festival''s final match between Meng Yue and Lei Qian''er.
But Tang Li Xue and the others were actually really looking forward to watching this match.
The heroic ck-haired fox girl was clearly a dark horse in the current Foxes Hunting Festival.
No one really expected that this heroic ck-haired fox girl could actually go this far.
Chapter 790 790: Foxes Hunting Festival’s Final Match!
Chapter 790 Chapter 790: Foxes Hunting Festival''s Final Match!
"All of you should already be aware that this is the final match of the Foxes Hunting Festival. This is the battle between the two current strongest foxes in our Fox n." Instructor Mei Lan exined to her students while smiling gently at them as usual.
"You all are still far too weak and tenderpared to these two foxes, so I hope you can learn something from watching their match." Instructor Mei Lan added.
Tang Li Xue, Silly Fox, and Bingbing nodded at Instructor Mei Lan with a solemn expression.
It should be known that both Meng Yue and the heroic ck-haired fox girl were only the two strongest young foxes in the Fox n, but they were already extremely powerful and terrifying.
Tang Li Xue did not even dare to imagine how mighty Heaven''s Favored children from the top three Beast Races: Sea Beast Race, Bird Race, and Tiger Race.
Not to mention that there were also Heaven''s Favored children from the Human Race and the Undead Race...
Compared to them, all of the genius cultivators or beasts in this Lightwind Continent seemed not even worth mentioning in front of them.
Thepetition between Heaven''s Favored children in Central Continent... just imagining them was more than enough to make Tang Li Xue''s blood boil in excitement.
Of course, she had to evolve into [Rare] Grade beast first if she wanted topete on equal ground with those monsters.
When Tang Li Xue was still daydreaming about it, the matchmentator had already talked on the hologram projection screen to hype the audience.
...
"Today will be the match we are all waiting for~! The final match of the Foxes Hunting Festival~!"
"Between the dark horse or the defending champion, we will see soon which one of them will win~!"
"From the right side is the Heaven''s Favored Child of our Fox n... Meng Yue~!"
"While on the left side is the dark horse of the current Foxes Hunting Festival... Ye Youling (Night Ghost)~!"
After the matchmentator introduced both Meng Yue and Ye Youling, both of them entered the arena at the same time and approached each other.
On the right side was the 12-years-old-looking little fox girl with very long shiny blue hair and wearing a loose white dress. Even her fox fluffy ears and furry tails had the same color as her shiny blue hair.
On the left side was a beautiful and heroic fox girl with ck hair tied in a ponytail and wearing tight ck martial clothes. Other than her fair white skin, everything about her was ck including her hair, eyes, furry tails, and fox ears.
Ye Youling still smiled strangely as she lowered her head at Meng Yue and said politely to her: "It is truly a great honor for me to fight against you, Miss Meng Yue. I hope you can go easy on me."
Meng Yue smiled at Ye Youling and replied: "Oh, really? You should already know that I can read the thoughts of all creatures near me, right?"
Ye Youling sneered even more widely as she asked: "Then should I apologize for my impolite thoughts?"
Meng Yue shook her head with an amused expression: "There is no need for you to do that. Because I am sure you will change your mind soon enough."
"I am really looking forward to that." Ye Youling muttered while licking her pale lips as a thick bloodthirst aura emitting from her slender body.
It might looked like a simple exchange of greeting words, but the smell of gunpowder on the air was already extremely thick.
After saying their greeting, Meng Yue and Ye Youling retreated farther from each other and waited patiently until the signal for their match to start resounded.
There was a golden coin falling from the sky all of a sudden.
The falling speed of the golden coin was quite fast, but it was actually very slow for everyone including Meng Yue and Ye Youling.
The golden coin was spinning in mid-air before falling down right in the middle of the arena.
CLING~!
BWOOOOSSHH~!
Just right after the golden coin touched the ground, Ye Youling swiftly shed toward Meng Yue without giving her any chance to unfold her mighty [Aurora Creation Domain]!
Ye Youling threw a quick palm-piercing attack toward Meng Yue''s chest!
Ye Youling clearly nned to kill Meng Yue as fast as possible before she could use her [Aurora Creation Domain]!
BAAAANG~!
Unfortunately, Meng Yue kicked Ye Youling''s wrist until it blew upward before the palm-piercing attack could reach her chest!
"Not bad, but that is still far from enough~! You still have to try harder to kill and rece me to be Heaven''s Favored Child of the Fox n~!" Meng Yue uttered to Ye Youling in a yful tone.
Ye Youling chuckled while replying in a leisurely tone: "There is no harm in trying it, right? But it seems I still have to go all out if I want to defeat you."
Then both of them unleashed their domain at the same time!
[Aurora Creation Domain]~!
[Night Shadow Domain]~!
BOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The pitch-ck curtain of darkness shed head-on against the shiny colorful aurora of light!
Ye Youling''s [Night Shadow Domain] had a wider radius, so it looked as if the pitch-ck curtain of darkness had swallowed Meng Yue''s [Aurora Creation Domain].
But the colorful aurora was actually still shining beautifully on the sky below the pitch-ck curtain of darkness.
Both of their domain seemed to ovep each other and created a night sky filled with shiny colorful aurora.
It might look extremely beautiful, but it was actually the manifestation of Meng Yue and Ye Youling''s powers. Both of their powers were currentlypeting fiercely to overpower each other in the sky!
Meng Yue frowned deeply and puckered her lips cutely whileining in a solemn tone but her cute childish voice did not seem convincing at all: "What an abominable power! No wonder you can defeat Tu Shan''s purple sister."
Ye Youlingughed creepily as she said: "Who cares if my power is abominable or not, right? As long as I can defeat and rece you as Heaven''s Favored Child of the Fox n, even if I must sell my soul to the demon, everything will be worth it in the end~!"
Meng Yue waved her hand as she instantly created hundreds of freezing-cold ice swords.
Those hundreds of freezing-cold ice swords were hovering in the sky, but all of their tips were pointing at the Ye Youling!
"Go~!" Under Meng Yue''s control, those hundreds of freezing-
cold ice swords flew very swiftly toward Ye Youling in unison!
Ye Youling was not intimidated at all, and she still sneered leisurely at Meng Yue while uttering: "Good swords~! I really like them, so please lend them to me for a while."
After Ye Youling finished her words, Meng Yue''s hundreds of freezing-cold ice swords suddenly halted in mid-air as their color rapidly changed from crystal blue to pitch ck!
SHRING~!
Then those hundreds of freezing-cold ice swords pointed toward Meng Yue''s instead at the same time!
SWOOOSSHH~!
The hundreds of freezing-cold ice swords flew toward Meng Yue and attacked Meng Yue instead as if they were under Ye Youling''s control right now!
Tang Li Xue stood up from her seat nervously when she saw the nerve-wracking scene on the hologram projection screen.
''What the hell with that ck fox''s divine abilities?! She can actually rob the control of the other creatures'' abilities?! This also happened to Lei Qian''er before!'' Tang Li Xue thought suspiciously.
Different from Tang Li Xue''s nervous and tense mood, Meng Yue was still extremely calm right now.
Meng Yue waved her hand again without changing herzy expression.
RROOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRR~!
Two-hundred-meter azure flood dragon was flying around Meng Yue while sweeping away all of the hundreds of freezing-
cold ice swords easily with its giant body!
The hundreds of freezing-cold ice swords were shattered like fragile porcins when the Two-hundred-meter azure flood dragon swept them using its indestructible body.
"Hooo~! This time is a dragon! I also like it, so please lend it to me too~!" Ye Youling muttered while sneering coldly at Meng Yue.
In that instant, the two-hundred-meter azure flood dragon actually changed its color to pitch ck, and Ye Youling once again forcefully robbed the control over the two-hundred-
meter flood dragon from Meng Yue!
RROOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRR~!
The two-hundred-meter pitch-ck flood dragon bared its fangs to Meng Yue instead at this time!
Meng Yue chuckled in amusement while muttering: "Really interesting! Then I want to see how many things you can ''borrow'' from me~!"
This might be the first time in the Foxes Hunting Festival for Meng Yue to make a hand seal.
After Meng Yue finished her hand seal, a total of twelve two-
hundred-meter azure flood dragons suddenly appeared out of nothing!
The twelve two-hundred-meter azure flood dragons charged toward a pitch-ck flood dragon at the same time!
A pitch-ck flood dragon did not stand a chance at all as it was torn apart by the twelve azure flood dragons in the blink of an eye!
Chapter 791 791: Fox Clan Leaders Worries!
Chapter 791 Chapter 791: Fox n Leaders Worries!
After tearing apart the pitch-ck flood dragon, Meng Yue''s twelve azure flood dragons flew swiftly toward Ye Youling!
However, Ye Youling''s creepy smile still did not diminish at all as she muttered: "Well, those giant pets are surely troublesome. Luckily, I have a suitable cage for them~!"
Ye Youling raised the palm of her hand and made a grasping motion.
In that instant, Meng Yue''s twelve azure flood dragons were covered by a ck light curtain and rapidly shrunk!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The ck light curtain kept shrinking until it formed a palm-sized ck ball while Meng Yue''s twelve azure flood dragons werepletely sealed inside the palm-sized ck ball!
The floating palm-sized ck ball fell onto Ye Youling''s palm.
Ye Youling could easily catch it, but she deliberately missed it instead!
The palm-sized ck ball fell onto the ground and shattered to pieces, then evaporated into ck fog.
"Upps, I am really sorry, Miss Meng Yue. It seems that I identally ''shattered'' your twelve huge pets into pieces." Ye Youling said in a yful mixed with mocking tone to Meng Yue.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she saw Ye Youling''s other strange divine ability.
Tang Li Xue had already seen Ye Youling use this kind of strange divine ability to seal the entire huge floating ind in one move into a small ck ball before in Foxes Hunting Festival.
Despite watching it twice already, Tang Li Xue still did not have any idea about the principle behind Ye Youling''s sealing-type divine ability until now.
''What the heck is that? ckhole? Gravity suppression? Spacepression?'' Tang Li Xue thought carefully as she watched the fierce battle between Meng Yue and Ye Youling on the hologram projection screen.
"Oh? What an interesting ability~! Let''s see if I can do it too~!" Meng Yue eximed as her eyes shone in amusement.
Meng Yue slowly raised her small tender palm and also made a sping motion.
Then Ye Youling was suddenly surrounded by the curtain of seven-colored aurora!
The curtain of seven-colored aurora kept shrinking until it formed a beautiful palm-sized seven-colored pearl.
Ye Youling was actually sealed inside that palm-sized seven-colored pearl right now!
Tang Li Xue, Silly Fox, Bingbing, and the other audience thought this fight should be over.
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
But out of everyone''s expectations, the beautiful palm-sized seven-colored pearl suddenly filled with cracks!
Meng Yue tried to stabilize the seven-colored pearl, but it was futile...
BAAAAAANG~!
The seven-colored pearl exploded to pieces, and Ye Youling was released without any injuries.
"What a crazy battle is this?! Their abilities arepletely beyond ourmon sense!" Bingbing murmured in awe and envy.
Silly Fox did not bother to say anything, but his solemn expression showed that he might be currently thinking about how to fight against Ye Youling and Meng Yue with his abilities.
Ye Youling''s abilities could steal and seal Meng Yue''s abilities.
But Meng Yue''s abilities could create anything and even replicate Ye Youling''s abilities.
By the way, Tang Li Xue had already tried to use her [Mirror of the Moon] to copy Meng Yue or Ye Youling''s abilities through the hologram projection screen, but she actually failed.
She still did not know if the reason was because she could not copy their abilities through the hologram projection screen, or maybe because shecked something like their bloodline, Regalia, domain, or something else.
Even Instructor Mei Lan''s expression also became serious as she analyzed carefully how to counter Ye Youling and Meng Yue''s abilities.
.....
In the middle of the vast ancient library with so many tall bookshelves containing hundreds of books on each of them, two top leaders of the Fox n were currently watching the final match between Ye Youling and Meng Yue while ying chess against each other.
One of them was a noble and elegant foxdy with long straight gray hair tied in a ponytail, and even her fox ears and tails had gray-colored furs.
Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan knew this noble and elegant foxdy very well since they had already met with her before.
Yes, this noble and elegant foxdy was the ''Bookkeeper''.
The other one who sat across from the Bookkeeper was a stunningly beautifuldy with pink long hair reaching her knees.
Her fluffy fox ears and tails also had pink-colored furs.
She has a pair of strange seven-colored star patterns in her pink eyes.
Unfortunately, she wore a ck long coat to cover her voluptuous body.
This pink-haired foxdy was also the top leader of the Fox n... She had many nicknames, but the Bookkeeper usually called her, ''Chessmaster''.
The Chessmaster moved her chess piece forward on the chessboard, and then she gracefully sipped her tea.
"To think that experimental subject can go on equal ground against Meng Yue. It looks like your project has already progressed very rapidly." Bookkeeper said while watching the battle on the hologram projection screen in front of them.
Chessmaster nced at Ye Youling on the hologram projection screen and smiled while saying: "She is an exceptional one among all experimental subjects. Moreover, the cost of ''creating'' her is actually many times less than nurturing Meng Yue to reach this level."
Bookkeeper frowned deeply when she heard Chessmaster''s words.
In Chessmaster''s words, the cost to nurture one Heaven''s Favored Child like Meng Yue could actually be used to create dozens of Ye Youling.
In short, creating dozens of foxes like Ye Youling was actually more cost-efficient and worth it than nurturing one Heaven''s Favored Child like Meng Yue.
But the Bookkeeper did not like that idea at all, so she tried to say something to convince the Chessmaster.
"You should know that such unreliable experimental subjects should be like a double-edged sword, and they could easily backfire anytime, right?" The Bookkeeper muttered as she moved her chess piece forward on the chessboard while ncing at the Chessmaster with a serious expression.
"I know... Of course, I know. But do we really have any other choice?" Chessmaster replied while sneering with an ironic expression.
Then Chessmaster exined in a solemn tone: "The Human Race has be more and more daring in their action because of the Tyrant Sovereign God."
"Even Undead Race cannot sit still anymore, and they have begun to make many sneaky moves behind our back."
"If our Beast Race still does not do something to get out of this situation, we will surely be left behind and be more oppressed by those two."
"And the first one who would suffer will be us, the Fox n, as the eyes and ears of the Beast Race."
"We can only take bolder moves at this point. Only by being braver than the others we would have a higher chance to seize the initiative and win the future for ourselves." Chessmaster murmured coldly.
The Bookkeeper sighed and uttered helplessly: "Anyway, you are in charge of the ''future'', so you should be more careful in your every step."
The three top leaders of the Fox n were actually representing their respective tasks.
''Bookkeeper'' represents the past.
''Writer'' represents the present.
''Chessmaster'' represents the future.
From those, it could easily be seen that the Chessmaster who was in charge of the Fox n''s future had an extremely important role in decision-making.
What Chessmaster saw with her eyes was clearly not everyone could see!
The Chessmaster always wanted stability, and she wanted to win Fox n''s future by picking the choice with the highest chance of winning.
Bookkeeper waspletely different than Chessmaster...
The Bookkeeper secretly squinted her eyes when Tang Li Xue, her Little Loki, and her Little Yaya appeared in her mind.
Rather than relying on the double-edged experimental subjects, Bookkeeper would rather choose to put the Fox n''s future in Tang Li Xue''s hands.
A fox cub who could tame a newborn Taotie cub...
She should be far more excellent than Meng Yue and Ye Youling in the future, right?
The Bookkeeper smiled with a relieved expression.
She watched the fierce battle on the hologram projection screen while saying to Chessmaster: "I know your worry. But sometimes, we just have to put our belief in the younger generation. I believe they will never let us down."
Chessmaster nced at Bookkeeper in an astonished expression.
"How rare~! Those words are not like you at all. Tell me, do you find someone really excellent among our younger generation?" Chessmaster snuck closer to Bookkeeper while asking in a curious tone.
Bookkeeper chuckled at Chessmaster and muttered while staring at Chessmaster with an expression full of confidence: "No... Not yet. But I believe she would be brilliant enough to carry the banner of our Fox n in the future."
Chessmaster clicked her tongue in amazement: "You did not even say anything about Meng Yue before. Don''t tell me this young fox cub is even more talented than Meng Yue?!"
Chessmaster pinched her chin while smiling brightly: "So interesting~! Then how about if we make a bet?"
The bookkeeper giggled as she smiled at Chessmaster: "All right, then let''s see which one of us will win this bet in the end~!"
Chapter 792 792: Each Have Their Own Advantage!
Chapter 792 Chapter 792: Each Have Their Own Advantage!
.....
Meanwhile, Meng Yue and Ye Youling were already fighting back and forth for more than ten minutes.
Meng Yue created many things such as me crows, lightning spears, transparent wind des, and so on to attack Ye Youling.
Ye Youling would either steal Meng Yue''s creations and use them to attack Meng Yue back, or she would seal them using her Night Shadow curtain.
In everyone''s eyes, Meng Yue and Ye Youling werepletely fighting on equal ground in these ten minutes.
But only both of them knew that neither of them were fighting using their fullest true abilities yet until this point.
BOOOOOOM~!
Meng Yue unleashed three purple lightning spears toward Ye Youling, but Ye Youling stole one of them and threw it back to meet the other two purple lightning spears.
All of the purple lightning spears exploded, while Ye Youling still remained untouched.
Meng Yue and Ye Youling were floating in the sky while facing each other.
Ye Youling sneered mockingly at Meng Yue, while Meng Yuezily yawned instead.
Meng Yuezily said to Ye Youling: "Hey, Is that all of your abilities? This has gotten so boring. I am already tired after watching you use them again and again."
"Moreover, I cannot sense even any trace of passion to win from you. You are so strange, and I do not like you at all." Meng Yue added honestly.
Ye Youling sneered creepily at Meng Yue and replied: "I am very sorry for making Miss Meng Yue so bored. Then I will step up the level of our game, but I hope Miss Meng Yue can hold on and entertain me for a bit longer."
Ye Youling spread her hands as she activated her other hidden divine ability!
[Life Drain]~!
All of the nts such as trees and grasses around the arena were rapidly dried as if their life force were sucked dry by something horrible!
Even Meng Yue could feel that the vitality energy in her body was sucked little by little!
Meng Yue frowned a bit while muttering: "Oh, this divine ability... An identical divine ability to Undead Race''s innate skill?"
Ye Youling grinned even more widely as she proudly said to Meng Yue: "That is right~! With this divine ability, I will have almost unlimited stamina and energy! I can fight non-stop without getting tired while you will only get more tired and weaker as time goes on~!"
"Our battle should be the battle of attrition. You can create anything with your divine abilities, while I can steal and seal your creation with my divine abilities. Our strengths should be on par with each other, but the one who ran out of energy first will be the loser."
"Unfortunately for you, I have this [Life Drain]~! Hehehehe... With this [Life Drain], you will no longer stand a chance to win against me!"
"I am so sorry, Miss Heaven''s Favored Child of the Fox n~! But you have to hand over your crown to me today~! Hahahahaha~!" Ye Youlingughed out loud delightfully as if she already had 100%plete confidence that she would win this final match against Meng Yue.
.....
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and muttered: "[Life Drain]? Undead Race''s innate skill? Err, that divine ability almost resembles my [Essence Devouring Technique]?!"
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s [Essence Devouring Technique] still required a physical connection with the target in order to work.
Of course, that weakness in [Essence Devouring Technique] was not without any solution.
In fact, Tang Li Xue had already found the solution to that problem some time ago...
Yes, bybining her [Essence Devouring Technique] with [Energy Maniption], it would no longer require any physical connection with the target for it to work!
However, the problem right now was that the radius was still very limited, maybe only a few meters from her.
If she managed to solve the radius problem, thenpletely integrated [Essence Devouring Technique], [Energy Maniption], and [Art of Concealment], Tang Li Xue was 100% sure that her version would definitely surpass Ye Youling''s [Life Drain]!
Tang Li Xue sighed: ''Forget it... My [Essence Devouring Technique]plete version is still far from ready, so how could I alreadypare it to Ye Youling''s [Life Drain]?!''
Tang Li Xue stared at Meng Yue with a worried expression while murmuring softly: "Now what will you do, Meng Yue? If it keeps going like this, you will certainly get exhausted first sooner orter, so you better do something very quickly before that happens."
.....
Meng Yue puckered her pink lips cutely and uttered in a displeased tone: "You talk as if you have already won. Does that something called [Life Drain] give you that much confidence to win against me?"
"That might be an amazing ability, but it does not mean you will be invincible just because you have it. Even the strongest god from the Undead Race can still be killed by a human."
"Undead Race surely has their own advantage, but the Human Race and we, the Beast Race, also have our own unique racial advantage. I think there is no need for us to go that far until we have to replicate the other race''s advantage." Meng Yue stated in a solemn tone.
Meng Yue''s words were clearly not only addressed to Ye Youling but also to the other foxes including their higher-ups and top leaders.
In Meng Yue''s eyes, Ye Youling was actually the result of the top leaders'' distrust of her and the other Fox n''s younger generation.
Because if the higher-ups and top leaders of the Fox n fully trusted them, there should be no need for them to go that far until they experimented with integrating the Undead Race''s innate racial skill for creating someone like Ye Youling.
Ye Youling snorted disdainfully while saying coldly to Meng Yue: "You still dare to act tough until now. I really want to see if your strength is really as tough as your mouth!"
Ye Youling raised her palm and made a grasping motion.
PUUFFF~!
A pitch-ck spear suddenly appeared and stabbed Meng Yue from behind until itpletely pierced Meng Yue''s chest!
Meng Yue: "???!!!"
Meng Yue was extremely surprised when her vitality energy and life force were actually drained rapidly by the pitch-ck spear!
"Hehehehe... I make that spear bybining my [Life Drain] ability with my sealing-type divine ability! You might be able to cure all of your wounds easily with your [Aurora Creation Domain], but I want to see if you can also recover your vitality energy and life force~!" Ye Youling sneered maliciously at Meng Yue.
The pitch-ck spear sucked Meng Yue''s vitality energy and life force until her body turned into a dried corpse, and she fell helplessly from the sky.
"No, it can''t be?! Meng Yue really lose?!" Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes and shouted in disbelief.
Even the other foxes such as Lei Qian''er, Bai Huohuo, and so on found it hard to believe that Meng Yue would really lose.
For God''s sake, this was their Fox n''s Heaven''s Favored Child, so how could she lose to a dark horse that was the result of an experimental subject?!
Ye Youling alreadyughed out loud in excitement as if dering her victory on the hologram projection screen.
When everyone was already sighed and groaned in great disappointment, something out of their expectation has happened on the hologram projection screen!
Just before Meng Yue''s dried corpse could touch the ground, the scene seemed to suddenly reverse!
It was like the surrounding time seemed to be turned back!
Meng Yue''s body flew upward toward the sky and recovered back to usual while the pitch-ck spear that pierced her chest retreated and disappeared as if it never had existed before.
Meng Yue shook her long blue hair while blushing in embarrassment and said: "Kuuuhhh~! It is so embarrassing~! My mistake~! Let''s restart it again, okay~?!"
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Everyone who watched on the screen: "....."
Hey, hey, hey, that was clearly not the time for you to be embarrassed, okay?! At least say something cool to fit your image as Heaven''s Favored Child of the Fox n!
But despite that, everyone including Tang Li Xue was still sighed in relief when they saw Meng Yue was all right.
''I almost forgot that she still have that weird skill to turn back the time...'' Tang Li Xue thought while patting her forehead in embarrasment.
She had already suffer so much from Meng Yue''s skill to turning back the time before, that was the reason why she felt really embarrassed right now.
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly realized something extremely horrible...
"Wait a minute... Since Meng Yue can use her domain to turn back the time, does it mean she can also recover her stamina, life force, and vitality energy using it? Holy cow, so it means she also has inexhaustible energy?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
In short, their battle would work like this from now on...
Ye Youling could drain Meng Yue''s stamina, life force, and vitality energy to remain never tired.
While Meng Yue could use her domain or skill to turn back the time topletely recover her wounds, stamina, life force, and vitality energy.
"Damn, does it mean this battle would go endlessly, or it might end up in a draw?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in an unsure tone.
Chapter 793 793: The Champion!
Chapter 793 Chapter 793: The Champion!
Of course, many audiences might think that the final result actually did not really matter.
Both Meng Yue and Ye Youling were from the Qing Qiu Faction, so anyone who won would not change anything.
However, they did not know that the winner of this final match might determine the Fox n''s future path!
Ye Youling gnashed her teeth in annoyance while staring at Meng Yue with a pair of eyes filled with murderous intentions.
Then she took a deep breath to calm down herself and muttered coldly to Meng Yue: "So what if you can turn back the time?! It would only buy you some time. You would still be defeated by me in the end!"
Ye Youling swiftly made several hand seals and dozens of pitch-ck spears instantly condensed around Meng Yue!
Those dozens of pitch-ck spears shed toward Meng Yue from all directions at the same time!
But before those dozens of pitch-ck spears could touch Meng Yue, they suddenly froze in mid-air unable to move even a single millimeter.
Meng Yue stared pitifully at Ye Youling as she uttered: "You still do not understand our current situation? No... So, your mind should not be able to ept it, huh... Since I can use [Time Reverse], then it means it is easy for me to use [Time Freeze] too."
Ye Youling''s eyes turned bloodshot as she angrily said: "So what?! Then I want to see how many times you can use your [Time Reverse] or [Time Freeze]!"
Ye Youling shook her head in disappointment: "Space is the king of all elementals, but Time is supreme among all. You should have already known about this, right?"
Ye Youling sneered at Meng Yue and mocked: "Heh, what nonsense are you talking about?!"
Then Ye Youling made another hand seal, and a pitch-ck curtain shrouded Meng Yue''s little body at that moment!
[Nine Layers Shadow Sealing]~!
When the pitch-ck curtain almost solidified to seal Meng Yue inside it, the pitch-ck curtain suddenly spun backward and dispersed again as if someone just pushed the backward button.
It seemed that Meng Yue used her [Time Reverse] again...
"The moment I decided to use my Time power, no one would stand a chance against me unless they can use the Time power on the same level as me to counter it. Not even your [Life Drain], steal ability, or sealing ability can work against the current me." Meng Yue stated truthfully to Ye Youling.
But how could Ye Youling ept Meng Yue''s words and admit her defeat just like that?!
"NO~! It should be impossible for you to use your Time power without any limit! If I can deplete your..." Before Ye Youling could finish her words and do anything further...
The bored Meng Yue had already decided to wrap up this battle right at this point.
"[Time Fracture]..." Meng Yue whispered softly as she waved her small slender hand.
In that instant, the entire area covered by her [Aurora Creation Domain] was entirely stopped.
Blowing wind, moving clouds, fluttering grasses, and so on werepletely halted.
Even Ye Youling could no longer move any of her body parts even a little bit. She could not even blink her eyes or make any sound.
The entire world seemed to bepletely fell into silent.
Nothing could move... Nothing could make any sound...
Meng Yue slowly hovered closer toward Ye Youling while saying: "You are certainly quite strong, but I do not like you. Unlike everyone I want to be friends with like Lightning Sister and many other ones, I cannot feel your passion at all."
"I do not care how you can get your current strength, but both cultivation and evolution are the act to defy against fate."
"Without any strong passion to reach the top and persistence to never give up when facing any setback, you will surely not be able to go any further in the future."
"I do not want you to be my friend, so begone from my sight~!" Meng Yue uttered coldly as she stretched her right hand leisurely toward Ye Youling''s face.
Ye Youling might not be able to move even one bit, but her consciousness could still process every information she saw.
She became more and more panicked as Meng Yue''s fair slender hand zoomed closer and closer to her sight.
Ye Youling tried her hardest to move her body to avoid Meng Yue''s hand, but all of her effort was futile.
In the end, Meng Yue''s finger easily tapped Ye Youling''s forehead gently without facing any resistance.
After a few breaths of time, Ye Youling began to disintegrated into nothingness starting from her head to her body, then to her feet.
Tang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and all other audiences were stunned for a few moments in astonishment.
"WHOOOOOAAAAAHHHH~! We finally got the final winner of the current Foxes Hunting Festival~!" The announcer shouted in an excited tone.
"The champion is... our undefeated goddess... The Heaven''s Favored Child of our Fox n... MENG YUE~!" The announcer dered to the entire Fox n through the hologram projection screen.
Bookkeeper smiled in satisfaction at the final result and muttered to Chessmaster: "You should hear that little girl''s words, right? It should be the message for you."
Chessmaster shook her head while smiling full of irony before saying: "It is already a bit toote for that. You should have known that we have spent so much resources on that experiment, and it has already entered the final phase."
Bookkeeper also did not bother to say anything again to the Chessmaster.
She knew very well that their time was too tight.
Nurturing Meng Yue had spent so many of their resources and time to reach her current level.
She surely met their expectation at this point, but the question right now... Could Meng Yue really reach Sovereign God level in the end before their time was up?
Well, no one could be sure about it...
So having another backup n was definitely a must!
Then again... Could their backup n be strong enough topete against anyone at the Sovereign God level?!
This was a good question.
Bookkeeper shook her head and took a deep breath as she muttered softly: "Sigh... But no matter what, I still think that experimenting with the remnants of the Undead race''s fallen Sovereign God is really too dangerous."
Chessmaster chuckled helplessly while replying in a firm tone: "You should understand me best. I will do everything for the safety of our Fox n, even selling my soul to the demon."
When Chessmaster mentioned about ''selling her soul to the demon'', Bookkeeper suddenly recalled about Taotie''s cub again and felt that she was actually not that much different than Chessmaster.
Both of them were gambling with something extremely ominous.
No... Logically, the threat of Taotie''s cub was clearly countless times more dangerouspared to the experimenting with the remnants of the Undead race''s fallen Sovereign God.
Bookkeeperughed at herself and uttered: "You are indeed right... I am also the same as you..."
.....
"Wooohoooo~! Meng Yue really won and became the champion~!" Tang Li Xue stood up from her seat and eximed excitedly with a charming smile on her stunningly beautiful face.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and said disdainfully: "Why are you so happy?! You are not the one who wins and bes the champion~!"
Tang Li Xue instantly deted again and sat back on her seat while lowering her head in embarrassment.
Silly Fox and Yan Fei immediately tried tofort Tang Li Xue.
Silly Fox approached Tang Li Xue and stated: "It is okay, Xue. At least, You are still thest one to be eliminated among us."
Yan Fei nodded while patting Tang Li Xue''s shoulder gently.
Bingbing also grasped Tang Li Xue''s hand and said: "That is right. This is our first time participating in the Foxes Hunting Festival, so it is natural that we got eliminated so early. I am sure we willst much longer if we participate in the Foxes Hunting Festival for the second time."
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly when she heard Bingbing''sforting words, but she secretly thought: ''Participating in the Foxes Hunting Festival for the second time, huh... It would be ten years from now, right?!''
''Ten years, huh... I am quite sure I would have already evolved into Spirit Beast by then~! So, I would definitely not be able to participate in the Foxes Hunting Festival for the second time!'' Tang Li Xue groaned in her heart.
"All right, stop daydreaming already~! If you want tost longer in the next Foxes Hunting Festival, you need to practice much harder first from now on, understand?!" Instructor Mei Lan told to all of her students in a stern tone.
"Understand, Instructor Lan~!" Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox replied in unison.
"Okay, you can go back home right now. But you have to write what you think about the final match you watched today, and how to improve yourself in order for you to fight against any of those two. you have to give your report to me tomorrow morning. ss Dismissed~!" Instructor Mei Lan uttered to them after giving them homework.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox groaned at the same time after they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s words.
Chapter 794 794: Another Problem!
Chapter 794 Chapter 794: Another Problem!
After Instructor Mei Lan''s ss was over, Tang Li Xue went back to the Residential Building with Yan Fei, Bingbing, and Silly Fox.
Tang Li Xue treated Yan Fei, Bingbing, and Silly Fox to eat their lunch at the luxurious restaurant on the first floor again today.
She also bought back some food for her perfect copy and Yaya who was still practicing diligently in her room space.
When she returned to her room space and gave the food she bought to Yaya and her perfect copy, Tang Li Xue immediately entered her study room and began to do the homework given by Instructor Mei Lan.
"First is about the final match I watched today, huh..." Tang Li Xue murmured as she took out the pen and paper from her space pouch, then began to write what she thought.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue really did not know what she had to write about the match, so she could only randomly write what she thought.
''Both of them are extremely powerful.''
"Well, that is it~! As for how to improve myself in order for me to fight against those two monsters... That is really easy~!" Tang Li Xue delightfully said.
''Evolve into Beast Lord andplete my personal domain!''
"Fiuh~! All right, I finally finished my homework!" Tang Li Xue murmured happily while wiping the non-existent sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.
Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction at her own homework.
After she threw her finished homework into her space pouch, Tang Li Xue went out again to attend Teacher Li Wei''s inscription lesson.
She was once again forced to read and remember so many inscription knowledge by Teacher Li Wei until her brain was almost fried before Teacher Li Wei let her go back to her home.
The sky had already turnedpletely dark when Tang Li Xue returned to the residential building.
Just likest night, Tang Li Xue decided not to sleep again tonight.
While her perfect copy was practicing the Profound Law of Heat and Cold from [Yin And Yang Chaotic Form] non-stop and Yaya was still refining her [Storm Calling Pearl], Tang Li Xue decided to continue to train her new skills of her Spiritualist Battle Style, [Spirit Shock] and [Eyes of Illusion].
She would keep persisting until she improved both of them to level 2 as soon as possible.
On the next morning, Yaya was too preupied with refining her [Storm Calling Pearl]st night until shepletely forgot about time.
Without Yaya reminding Tang Li Xue to wake up early and go to attend Instructor Mei Lan''s ss, Tang Li Xue was also too busy practicing [Spirit Shock] and [Eyes of Illusion], and she did not remember it.
She only realized it when Yan Fei, Bingbing, and Silly Fox knocked on the door of her room!
"Oh, damn~! It is over... We will really bete today~!" Tang Li Xue grumbled in panic.
Tang Li Xue quickly went out of her room while activating her [Wings of Freedom].
"Good morning..." Before Yan Fei, Bingbing, and Silly Fox could finish their greeting, Tang Li Xue already pulled all of them swiftly as she flew out from the Residential Building and headed to the Education Department Building.
Unfortunately for Tang Li Xue, she actually bumped into trouble this time!
"STOP~!" A firm but feminine voice suddenly shouted.
Tang Li Xue actually did not n to stop at all, but her entire body instantly stiffened after she heard that voice, and she could no longer move even an inch.
A young fox girl wearing a formal uniform suddenly appeared right in front of Tang Li Xue and the others and said: "I am thew reinforcement officer. You should not fly above a crowded street, and your speed already exceeds the tolerance limit. Since this is your first vition, I will fine you all with 10,000 credits for each of you."
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched when she heard the young fox girl''s words as she thought: ''What the heck?! There is also a police officer in this Myriad Foxes Academy?! Howe I only found out about it right now huh?''
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only pay 40,000 credits obediently to thew reinforcement officerdy.
Tang Li Xue and the others no longer dared to fly at breakneck speed toward the Education Department building again, so they could only run at a much slower speed on the street.
When they reached the ss, they already came toote at least for 10 minutes or so.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled very gently as she nodded her head at them.
She patted at Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and said: "I am really amazed by your courage. You all should already know that I like to punish you heavily if you dare toe even a little bitte, but you actually dare toe 10 minuteste today."
Tang Li Xue, Silly Fox, and Bingbing instantly shuddered in fright when they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s menacing words but she actually said it in a very gentle tone.
"After today''s ss... All of you mustplete 20,000 times of your training sets today." Instructor Mei Lan said to them while turning around and entering the ssroom.
Tang Li Xue, Silly Fox, and Bingbing instantly deted and lost all of their energy, but they still walked heavily into the ssroom.
Before starting today''s lesson, Instructor Mei Lan decided to check their homework first.
Instructor Mei Lan''s cherry lips twitched slightly, and her expression darkened a lot when she read her students'' homework.
Instructor Mei Lan stood in front of the ssroom and read their homework instead.
"Little Xue... Both of them are extremely powerful."
"Silly Fox... I am sure I can defeat both of them in the near future."
"Bingbing... I will defeat Bing Shui first before I defeat those two."
Instructor Mei Lan red at her three students and scolded: "Youzy bums~! I might tell you to write what you think about the final match, but you all should at least try to write more than one sentence!"
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox lowered their heads and blushed in embarrassment, while Yan Fei was still trying very hard not tough at them.
Instructor Mei Lan wanted to continue to mock her three students, but after she read the rest of Tang Li Xue''s homework, she frowned deeply and thought for a while instead.
Then Instructor Mei Lan decided to ask Tang Li Xue: "Little Xue, how could you already have three tails when you are only a demonic beast? I never asked you about this before, because I think it is only temporary. But seems not temporary at all."
"And if you evolve to Beast Lord, does it mean you will have four tailster? But four tails always mean that those foxes had already be Spirit Beasts." Instructor Mei Lan asked to Tang Li Xue again in puzzlement.
Yes, four tails were always the symbol of Spirit Beasts'' status...
If Tang Li Xue had four tails after she evolved into Beast Lordter, it would certainly bring a lot of trouble for her!
Instructor Mei Lan was clearly worried about Tang Li Xue because of it.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as tried to ask her System about it.
Unfortunately, her System would never answer any irrelevant question to it as always, so Tang Li Xue felt really helpless right now.
"I... I also do not know, Instructor Lan... Err, is there any way for me to hide some of my tails if I really have four tails after I evolve into Beast Lordter?" Tang Li Xue asked back with an unsure tone.
Instructor Mei Lan rubbed her forehead while trying to think of a way out of this problem.
For most of the foxes, their soft and beautiful furry tails were always their pride, so no one ever had any thought to hide them.
Of course, the foxes who lived in incognito and blended among humans were apletely different story.
"Let''s think about itter. Anyway, the stuff you asked me to look for still has not been found yet until now. Precious treasures containing star energy are very rare even in the Central Continent after all." Instructor Mei Lan stated to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue felt even more worried after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s statement.
She had to umte more than 999 star energies in her body in order to evolve into [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox].
From that 999 number, she was very sure that she needed a huge amount of precious treasures containing star energy, but it was actually even rare in the Central Continent!
Tang Li Xue sighed as she thought: ''Maybe I should just evolve into another kind of fox other than [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox]...''
Just when Tang Li Xue almost felt despaired, a light of inspiration suddenly shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
Her topaz blue eyes shone brightly like a pair of blue stars as she eximed in her mind: ''Wait a minute... If I remember correctly, I got something called [Treasure Map] after Ipleted the quest in the Foxes Hunting Festival, right?! I wonder if I can find a lot of precious treasures containing star energy with this [Treasure Map]?!''
Instructor Mei Lan started her lessons for today, but Tang Li Xue''s mind waspletely upied by the [Treasure Map] that was still stored in her System''s space.
The impatient Tang Li Xue decided to just activate her [Swap] skill to exchange her location with her perfect copy.
Chapter 795 795: Another Big Improvement!
Chapter 795 Chapter 795: Another Big Improvement!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, who was currently practicing the Profound Law of Heat and Cold from [Yin And Yang Chaotic Form] in the courtyard, waspletely dumbfounded when she suddenly appeared in the middle of Instructor Mei Lan''s lecture.
BAAAANG~!
Who knew that Instructor Mei Lan immediately realized it and swiftly threw the chalk in her grasp toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy?!
After injecting vibration power into the chalk, the force contained inside Instructor Mei Lan''s chalk could not be underestimated.
The dumbfounded perfect copy did not even have any time to react as the chalk struck her forehead heavily until she fell backward from her seat!
"Ouch~!" The perfect copy stood up with an aggrieved expression while rubbing her swelled forehead in pain.
"How dare you use your perfect copy to rece you in my ss?!" Instructor Mei Lan scolded the perfect copy.
"I agree, Instructor Lan~! You should punish my real self as heavily as possible, but please do not involve me. I am really innocent!" The perfect copy instantly sold the real Tang Li Xue while asking for Instructor Mei Lan''s forgiveness.
.....
While her perfect copy was facing Instructor Mei Lan''s wrath, Tang Li Xue had already teleported back instantly to her courtyard in the room space.
Tang Li Xue took out the [Treasure Map] from her System''s storage and checked it carefully.
The [Treasure Map] actually looked like an ordinary ancient parchment scroll.
Tang Li Xue decided to use her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to check the effect of this [Treasure Map].
------------------------------------
[Treasure Map]
[Description: Everyone''s most beloved treasure map. The function is of course to find hidden treasures. So, what are you waiting for,d?! Let''s go for the treasure hunt!]
[Effect 1: If you open this [Treasure Map] without designating the treasure you want to obtain, it will show the random location of the unowned hidden precious treasures.]
[Effect 2: If you designate the treasure you want to obtain first before opening this [Treasure Map], it will show the location of the precious treasure you wish to get.]
------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and disbelief after she confirmed the effect of the [Treasure Map].
The item description might sound stupid, so let''s just ignore it. But the effects of [Treasure Map] were surely extraordinary!
"This [Treasure Map] is awesome~! I wonder if it can really help me find enough precious treasures with abundant star energies to solve my problem!" Tang Li Xue joyously muttered.
Tang Li Xue had a strong urge to immediately unfurl the [Treasure Map] in her grasp on the spot, but she quickly stopped her hands.
"No~! There is no guarantee that I can get enough precious treasures with star energies if I open it right now." Tang Li Xue bit her pink lips and pondered carefully again.
"Moreover, the second effect of this [Treasure Map] does not say that it would show the location of the ''unowed'' precious treasure I want to get, so there might be a high chance that it would be located in some powerful sects such as Immortal Sword Sect, Alchemist Sect, and so on."
"It was already so dangerous when I ransacked Gu Family''s treasure warehouse in the Garden City before. If I try to steal the treasures directly from those sects'' treasure warehouse, I might really get caught or killed for real at that time." Tang Li Xue concluded while rubbing her forehead.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue''s flexible mind quickly found the right way to use the [Treasure Map] after thinking for a few minutes.
Tang Li Xue squinted her topaz blue eyes as she murmured: "The only option I have is to use this [Treasure Map] after I managed to enter the Fallen Ancient Sect''s Secret Realm."
"All of the treasures inside the secret realm would definitely not belong to anyone yet... I can only hope that [Treasure Map] can help me obtain enough precious treasures containing abundant star energies in the secret realm."
"It would the best if I could evolve inside the secret realm since I could disguise my evolution phenomenon as the birth of precious treasure instead."
Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction at the n she had formted.
She stored the [Treasure Map] back into her System''s storage carefully.
Of course, Tang Li Xue would not use [Swap] and exchange location with her perfect copy again to face Instructor Mei Lan''s wrath.
Don''t forget that she also had to undergo harsh punishment foring toote today, so she decided to just let her perfect copy ''training'' diligently in her ce today.
But it did not mean that Tang Li Xue could remain idle today...
She still had to review Teacher Li Wei''s previous inscription lesson before she attended Teacher Li Wei''s lesson today.
It would be really bad if she also got punished by Teacher Li Weiter.
.....
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
Tang Li Xue''s days had been extremely busy these few days but it was truly fulfilling.
With the joint efforts between herself and her perfect copy, Tang Li Xue could feel that she got stronger rapidly every day.
Especially after training the new skills of her Spiritualist Battle Style, [Spirit Shock] and [Eyes of Illusion] diligently every night, both of those skills finally reached level 2.
Not only did the effect of those skills be much more powerful, but she could use them much more flexibly in battle and unleash them much faster and hidden than before.
Tang Li Xue was very satisfied with the improvement of her [Spirit Shock] and [Eyes of Illusion].
Imagine if she used her [Spirit Shock] to momentarily stun her enemies or used her [Eyes of Illusion] to make her enemies see and attack the illusion of herself in the midst of battle, it would be enough for her to finish off all of her enemies without them even having any time to react.
Little Yaya also finally managed topletely refine the [Storm Calling Pearl] given by Tang Li Xue a few days ago.
The [Storm Calling Pearl] turned into a green light and entered Yaya''s body.
With Yaya''s abundant wind energy continuously nurturing it, the [Storm Calling Pearl] actually grew stronger rapidly.
When Yaya used all of her skills, there would be lightning apanying them!
The lightning was still not that powerful yet since the level of [Storm Calling Pearl] was still too low at this point.
But Tang Li Xue and Yaya believed that the lightning from the [Storm Calling Pearl] would soon be powerful enough to even threaten any false spirit beastter.
Tang Li Xue caressed Yaya''s little head gently while praising her generously.
Yaya closed her emerald green eyesfortably while showing her cute satisfied expression.
Who knew that the surprise was not over yet as a small ck figure suddenly jumped toward Tang Li Xue?!
"Nyaaaa~!"
"Little Loki?! You finally wake up~!" Tang Li Xue eximed happily as she caught Little Loki in her embrace.
Even Yaya also flew toward Little Loki and hugged it cheerfully after she saw Little Loki wake up.
Tang Li Xue was quite surprised when she saw their closeness.
It was clear that both Yaya and Little Loki got so much closer after the Foxes Hunting Festival and Garden City.
Especially after Garden City since both of them were helping each other to sneak into many people''s precious herb gardens and steal a lot of delicious ''vegetables'' together.
After ying around excitedly, Tang Li Xue curiously interrogated Little Loki about its improvement.
There was no doubt about the improvement of Little Loki''s strength, but besides that, Little Loki''s other skills had also grown much more powerful than before.
The distance of its [Instant Teleportation] has increased by many times.
Previously, its [Phantom Splitters] could only split into three, two clones and thest one was its true self.
But right now, its [Phantom Splitters] could split into ten with nine of them being its clones.
The power, radius, and duration of its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] had also increased several times.
Its [Scythe w Qi] not only became much more powerful and sharper, but it could also change its trajectory freely ording to Little Loki''s will! It could even chase its targets if they tried to run away or dodge it!
The most important part was that Little Loki even awakened a new ability from its Taotie bloodline!
"A new ability from your Taotie Race?! Is it dangerous? Can you show it to me right now?" Tang Li Xue asked with an even more curious tone.
Little Loki smugly raised its furry tiny head.
Then its tiny furry body suddenly grew bigger in an instant!
Little Loki stopped growing only when its body reached three meters tall.
Different from its previous cute kitten form, the current Little Loki''s form was much closer to the Taotie in legend!
It looked a bit like a tiger, but it looked much more dangerous and powerful than any tiger.
Its entire body was covered with pitch-ck shiny scales. Not only did it look cool, but it was also extremely hard like an imprable armor.
There was a pair of glinted sharp ck horns on its forehead.
A pair of ck bat wings on its back became much thicker and stronger like the wings of the western dragon that Tang Li Xue had seen inside the game in her previous life.
Its w became much bigger and sharper than its previous form.
If Little Loki used its [Scythe w Qi] in its current form, it might be much more powerful and lethal than in its tiny form.
Tang Li Xue caressed Little Loki''s cool-looking new body in admiration while saying delightfully: "So awesome, Little Loki~! You finally obtain your mount form! Now, I can just ride you instead of that slow Wind Riding Bird! Hahahaha..."
Little Loki: ''???!!!''
"Hey, hey, hey, Sister... This battle form is used to fight, not to be your mount, okay?!'' Little Loki aggrievedly thought.
Chapter 796 796: Countless Failures For One Success!
Chapter 796 Chapter 796: Countless Failures For One Sess!
Little Loki''s three-meter-tall imposing figure shrunk again and reverted back to its kitten form.
"Ah?! Why do you transform back to your usual form?! I still want to appreciate your new cool form~! Come on, Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue whined spoiledly at Little Loki while shaking its tiny furry body yfully.
Little Loki rolled its eyes. Itpletely ignored the whining Tang Li Xue and yawnedzily as usual.
"Tsk~! Cheapskate, Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue pouted at Little Loki.
Of course, Tang Li Xue was only just joking around with Little Loki.
Using Little Loki in its battle form as her mount waspletely out of the question since it would expose Little Loki''s identity as Taotie''s cub in an instant!
Moreover, the extremely intense ominous evil aura emitted by Little Loki in its battle form could no longer be hidden with its current method.
Even Tang Li Xue and Yaya secretly felt repulsive and ufortable by its intense ominous evil aura when they stood so close to Little Loki in its battle form, but they did not say anything about it in order not to make Little Loki upset.
It seems they should try to find a much stronger disguising treasure at least at the Spirit Treasure level to disguise Little Loki in its battle form and cover its intense ominous evil aura as soon as possible.
''Hais~! Another troublesome thing to add to my list...'' Tang Li Xue sighed helplessly.
"Oh, no... It is already past noon. I have to attend Teacher Li Wei''s inscription lesson." Tang Li Xue eximed in a flustered manner.
Tang Li Xue told Little Loki to train diligently at home, so it could quickly familiarize itself with its new power before she left her room and headed toward Teacher Li Wei''s residence around the Education Department Building.
It only took ten minutes or so for Tang Li Xue to reach Teacher Li Wei''s residence.
After knocking on the residence''s gates for a while, Teacher Li Wei opened the gate and let Tang Li Xue enter his house.
"I have good news for you today. I have already sessfully cracked open all of your boxes." Teacher Li Wei yfully said to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s blue topaz eyes instantly shone in excitement as she asked: "Really?! Then can you please give them back to me right now, Teacher Li Wei? I want to check something in those boxes!"
"Nope~!" Teacher Li Wei immediately rejected Tang Li Xue''s plea.
"Why?!" Tang Li Xue angrily asked.
"Because you would definitely not be able to focus on my lesson if I give them back to you right now." Teacher Li Wei sneered cunningly while ncing yfully at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Well, that was actually so correct that Tang Li Xue could not even find any words to deny it.
Teacher Li Wei led Tang Li Xue into his study room while stating: "Don''t worry... If you sessfully make a magic treasure today, I will return those boxes back to you immediately."
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes in disappointment.
She already tried to make a magic treasure dozens of times in these few days, but unfortunately, she never seeded even once until now.
At first, Tang Li Xue thought she only needed to carve several inscription runes to form an array on the nk treasures in order to sessfully create a magic treasure, but she was actually wrong!
She had to follow some rules to ''connect'' several inscription runes together to form aplete array.
So, the process and method were far from as easy as she imagined before!
Tang Li Xue sat nervously on the seat across from Teacher Li Wei.
There was a working desk between them, and Teacher Li Wei put several thick books along with several nk treasures on the top of the working desk.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she opened several thick books about the rules of engraving arrays on the nk treasures.
After she re-read those books to refresh her memories about the rules for engraving arrays on the nk treasures, Tang Li Xue took a nk metal sword from the stack of nk treasures.
She held the nk metal sword in her left hand, while her right hand was holding the inscription pen given by Teacher Li Wei.
Tang Li Xue actually really wanted to use the Golden [Inscription Pen] she obtained from her system right now since it would surely increase her chance of sessfully making a magic treasure.
But unfortunately, Teacher Li Wei kept observing her every move very carefully up close, so she did not have any chance to take out her Golden [Inscription Pen].
Besides that, her Golden [Inscription Pen] was definitely a divine treasure which every inscriptionist master wants to have, so Tang Li Xue did not want Teacher Li Wei to know about it.
Tang Li Xue extremely focused as she began to use the ordinary inscription pen to carve on the surface of the nk metal sword.
Tang Li Xue had to carve [Sharp] rune, [Sturdy] rune, [Energy Channeling] rune to form oneplete array.
That was only the most basic array, but the difficulty was not low for Tang Li Xue.
Especially since Tang Li Xue had mostly relied too much on the golden [Inscription Pen] she obtained from the System to forcefully increase the chance of her sess all this time.
So, she immediately suffered many failures once she was forced to use an ordinary inscription pen right now.
"You still hold your pen unsteadily!"
"Your elbow must not be lower than your wrist!"
"How many times do I have to tell you that your pen has to stand straight!"
"Your back is bent too much, and your face is too close to the nk sword! Straight up your back and move your face further away from the nk sword!"
Teacher Li Wei''s frivolous manner immediately disappeared when he entered his teacher mode.
He instantly turned into a perfectionist strict teacher!
Crack~! Crack~! Crack~!
BAAAANG~!
The crack spread quickly on the surface of the metal sword, and it exploded to pieces before Tang Li Xue could finish carving the basic arraybination.
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment, but she still refused to give up. She immediately gritted her pearl-white teeth and took another nk treasure.
Teacher Li Wei nodded his head and smiled in appreciation when he saw Tang Li Xue''s persistence.
Rather than teaching azy genius that easy to give up, Teacher Li Wei preferred to teach a bit dumber student but persistent and hard-working like Tang Li Xue.
This time, Tang Li Xue took a long metal ruler.
Just like before, she intended to carve the most basic array from the runesbination of [Sharp], [Sturdy], and [Energy Channeling].
But only after she carved [Sharp] rune and [Sturdy] rune...
BAAAAANG~!
The long metal ruler exploded to pieces once again just like the previous metal sword.
Tang Li Xue tried again and again...
Four metal swords, two shields, two bells, and one metal rule were shattered to pieces as Tang Li Xue kept failing toplete carving the most basic array onto them.
Tang Li Xue decided to take some rest for a few minutes first while asking Teacher Li Wei: "Teacher Li, this is so difficult. So, carving formations should be much more difficult, right? Well, since we have to carve several arrays to form a formation."
Teacher Li Wei shook his head to deny it and exined: "It is actually not as difficult as you imagined. Carving runes, arrays, and formations have their own set of rules. Once you get used to them, I am sure that you will find them easy."
Tang Li Xue felt skeptical at Teacher Li Wei''s words, but she did not bother to say anything to argue about it.
Teacher Li Wei chuckled since he could easily read what Tang Li Xue thought from her current expression.
"Inscribing runes on talisman paper carving arrays to create magic treasure, and building formations arepletely different subjects."
"Inscribing runes on talisman paper is the same as writing a book."
"Carving arrays to create magic treasure is like making a treasure from scratch, except that the nk treasure is made by a cksmith."
"Building a formation is almost the same as building a house."
"Those are the reasons why they have different titles from each other which are called Inscriptionist Master, Treasure Refiner, and Formation Master."
"Just because you are already quite good at inscribing runes on talisman paper, it does not mean that you can quickly learn how to carve arrays to create magic treasure."
"It is natural for you to feel difficult since you just learn to carve arrays in order to create magic treasures in these few days."
Teacher Li Wei exined to Tang Li Xue patiently.
"Then why do I have to learn all of them? Is it enough for me to learn to be an Inscriptionist Master?" Tang Li Xue asked again.
Teacher Li Weiughed at Tang Li Xue while stating in an angry tone: "I never tell you topletely master all of them, okay?! I only tell you that you have to learn all of their basics, so you can deepen your knowledge! You have to learn all of the basics if you want to be a proper Inscriptionist Master!"
Tang Li Xue could only shrug her shoulders helplessly after she heard Teacher Li Wei''s reasonable exnation.
Tang Li Xue continued to try to make magic treasure without any intention of giving up, and after spending more than two hours and failing dozens of times, she finally seeded in making a barely proper magic treasure!
Chapter 797 797: Unboxing The Black Boxes!
Chapter 797 Chapter 797: Unboxing The ck Boxes!
"Sess?! I finally seeded ~! Uwehehehe~!" Tang Li Xueughed excitedly as she stood up from her seat and raised the first magic treasure she had ever sessfully created.
Teacher Li Wei snickered at Tang Li Xue''s excited behavior and said: "Congrattions~! Your talent in treasure refining is actually quite good too since you can create a magic treasure only after learning for a few days."
"If your talent in treasure refining is only at a low level, it might take at least a few months for you to reach this step." Teacher Li Wei generously praised Tang Li Xue.
Of course, Teacher Li Wei did not say that Tang Li Xue might really need a few months to reach this step if she did not receive his personal guidance.
But Teacher Li Wei did not bother to say it since Tang Li Xue might have lost all of her excitement and motivation if she heard it.
It surely took a lot of effort for Tang Li Xue to reach this sess, but she felt it was all worth it.
Tang Li Xue even began to consider if she had to go further on the path of treasure refiner too.
Tang Li Xue still had many unfulfilled wishes from her previous life such as riding an expensive sports car like a Bugatti Veyron or an expensive motorcycle like an Aston Martin.
She already secretly dreamed that she could use treasure-refining technology from this world to re-create those cool-looking modern vehicles.
''Not just that, imagine if I can add [Flying] rune to Bugatti Veyron... Does it mean I can even create a flying sports car?! Woah~! That would be so incredibly cool~!'' Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes already shone in excitement like a pair of blue stars.
Tang Li Xue''s mind flew farther and farther away as she dreamed of making even more advanced vehicles such as helicopters, jet fighters, and so on with the treasure-refining technology she had just learned.
However, Teacher Li Wei suddenly pinched her soft tender cheek and pulled it to wake her up!
"Ouch, ouch, ouch~! It leally hults~! (It really hurts~!)" Tang Li Xue cried as shepletely woke up from her daydreaming.
Teacher Li Wei released Tang Li Xue''s cheek while rolling his eyes and saying: "I know what you are thinking. Anyone who seeded in making their first treasure would definitely think that they could create Supreme Treasures or even Divine Treasures in the future."
"But I advised that you better not think too far like them because the greater the hope you have at the beginning, the greater the despair you would suffer in the end. You just need to focus on learning all of the basic knowledge toy a solid foundation first." Teacher Li Wei lectured Tang Li Xue in a firm tone.
"All right... I understand, Teacher Li..." Tang Li Xue replied while rubbing her reddened cheek.
Teacher Li Wei nodded while smiling in satisfaction.
He took out several ck boxes from his space pouch and put them beside Tang Li Xue''s seat and stated: "That is it for today. You can take these things and go back home earlier today."
"You can also take all of those nk treasures back. You should still have a good grasp because of your first sess in making the magic treasure, so you have to keep practicing diligently at home to engrave it into your habit." Teacher Li Wei advised Tang Li Xue again.
Tang Li Xue happily took away all of the ck boxes and stored them in her space pouch while saying: "I understand, Teacher Li! Thank you very much for your lesson today! See you again tomorrow!"
Tang Li Xue impatiently bid her farewell to Teacher Li Wei and quickly ran back to the Residential Building.
Usually, Teacher Li Wei only let Tang Li Xue return to her home after the sky had turnedpletely dark, but Tang Li Xue could already go back home when the sky was still bright.
When Tang Li Xue stepped into her courtyard, her perfect copy was still persistently practicing the Profound Law of Law and Heat from [Yin And Yang Chaotic Form].
The usuallyzy Little Loki was actually practicing intensely in the backyard to familiarize itself with its newly acquired battle form as quickly as possible.
Even the yful Yaya was sitting in the lotus position in the living room, and she currently focused on strengthening the [Storm Calling Pearl] in her body.
Several streaks of blue lightning would spark out of Yaya''s tiny body from time to time.
Tang Li Xue could sense that the lightning emitted by Yaya was actually getting stronger and stronger at a rapid pace.
Compared to yesterday, Yaya''s current lightning might have already grown stronger dozens of times.
Of course, it still had not reached the point that it could break Tang Li Xue''s current defense and hurt her yet.
ording to Tang Li Xue''s calction, Yaya might need to focus on nurturing and strengthening her [Storm Calling Pearl] for at least one month or so at this current speed.
As for it to reach the level of Silly Fox''s [Lightning of Destruction], Yaya''s [Storm Calling Pearl] would definitely need much longer time than that.
Tang Li Xue did not want to bother her perfect copy, Yaya, and Little Loki''s training, so she sneakily ran into her bedroom before she took out all of the ck boxes from her space pouch.
Tang Li Xue excitedly licked her pink lips while rubbing her slender fair hands together.
"Gods, Immortals, Buddha, Jade Emperor... Or whatever that hears my prayers... I do not hope much, but please just fulfill half of the precious treasures with star energies required for my evolution~!" Tang Li Xue prayed before she opened a ck box containing precious treasures with star energies.
The intense herbal fragrance instantly spread in Tang Li Xue''s bedroom.
With just one nce, Tang Li Xue could easily see that every herb, flower, or nt stored in this box was extremely precious.
Tang Li Xue carefully took out the entire ck box''s contents while checking the effect of every herb, flower, nt, or pill with her basic [All Knowing Eyes].
[Meridian Connecting Flowers]...
[Marrow Cleansing Mushroom]...
[Six-leaves Sword Intent Grass]...
[Beauty Rejuvenation Pill]...
....
Tang Li Xue grew darker and darker the more she unpacked the contents of the entire ck box.
In the end, Tang Li Xue finally fell into despair when she only found several strands of grasses containing star energy along with some pills concocted from them.
----------------------------------------
[Seven Stars Soul Grass]
[Description: Extremely rare grass nurtured by the power of the stars. It can only mature after being nurtured in a ce with abundant star energy for 700 years.]
[Effect 1: This grass is very poisonous unless the one who consumes it is the Star Elemental Beast, and it is the precious material used to concoct any star-elemental pills.]
----------------------------------------
[Seven Stars Soul Pill]
[Description: The extremely precious pill created from Seven Stars Soul Grass as the main material and more than 300 supplementary materials.]
[Effect: If it is consumed by someone who cultivates the Star Elemental Cultivation technique, the cultivation realm and star power would increase dramatically.]
----------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue stared at the several strands of [Seven Stars Soul Grass] and a bottle of [Seven Stars Soul Pill] in great disappointment.
"System, how much star energy I can get if I consume all of these things?" Tang Li Xue tried to as her System.
[Six strands of Seven Stars Soul Grass contain 18 points of star energies. Twelve Seven Stars Soul Pills contain 36 points of star energies. So, the total is 54 points of star energies.]
[Congrattion, Host~! You only need to find the precious treasures with 945 points of star energies.]
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched in annoyance.
Somehow, she had just felt that her System was mocking her.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to argue with her heartless System, and she decided to check the contents of the other ck boxes to soothe her disappointment and injured heart.
Tang Li Xue had to admit that the Gu Family from Garden City was truly rich.
There were so many good things stored in these ck boxes!
No... To be exact, all of the things stored in these ck boxes were very precious.
If Tang Li Xue still did not have enough credits, she might consider selling some of these things to obtain a lot of credits.
But she already had enough credits after winning the bet with Zi Yan, so Tang Li Xue decided that she would rather consume all of the precious treasures in these ck boxes to increase her level or cultivation realm instead.
Moreover, no one knew what kind of danger they would face in the Secret Realmter, so it would be much safer for Tang Li Xue and her group if they could get stronger as much as possible before they entered the Secret Realm.
That was also the reason why Little Loki and Yaya were practicing so desperately right now.
Tang Li Xue had already told them that they would have to go to the Secret Realm soon, so both Little Loki and Yaya instantly became extremely motivated to train themselves.
The two of them had faced a lot of trouble at the Foxes Hunting Festival and Garden City previously, so they might have a hunch that their travel to the Secret Realmter might not be an easy and leisure one.
Since both Little Loki and Yaya had already thought so, Tang Li Xue certainly would not want to be left behind by them, so she decided that she must increase her level to the maximum and her cultivation realm as much as possible.
Chapter 798 798: Preparation Before Departing!
Chapter 798 Chapter 798: Preparation Before Departing!
On the next morning, Tang Li Xue left her perfect copy, Yaya, and Little Loki, who were still practicing very hard in the room space, and hastily headed toward the Education Department Building with Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Yan Fei.
"Let''s be quicker before wee toote again and get punished~!" Tang Li Xue urged the others.
"But we will be even morete if we get caught by thew enforcement officer and get lectured by her like before." Bingbing sighed helplessly.
"What are you afraid of?! How could we get intimidated by a merew enforcement officer?! At worst, we can just try to escape from thatw enforcement officer! She should not chase us once we enter our ssroom, right?" Silly Fox rebuked in an unhappy tone.
Despite their chatter, they still jogged steadily toward the Education Department Building, but Tang Li Xue did not dare to drag them while using her [Wings of Freedom] plus [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] like before.
All of them barely reached the Education Department Building and entered the ssroom on time, while Instructor Mei Lan had already waited for them toe more than ten minutes earlier.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled at her students and muttered: "You are lucky today."
After Tang Li Xue and the others took their seat, Instructor Mei Lan began to tell them: "I will not teach you anything today, but I will tell you what you need to prepare before we head to the location of Secret Realm with the exploration team."
Bingbing and Yan Fei instantly became deted and depressed after she heard it.
Only Tang Li Xue, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan won the ticket prize to explore the Secret Realm with the exploration team from the previous contest, so both Bingbing and Yan Fei could not go with them.
Bingbing: "Little Xue~!"
Yan Fei: "Brother Feng~!"
Both Bingbing and Yan Fei grasped Tang Li Xue''s left and right hands, then whined dejectedly.
Tang Li Xue giggled while saying in aforting tone: "I am really sorry, but it cannot be helped. You two do not worry. We will only explore the secret realm for at least one month. We can y together again once Ie back home, okay?"
However, Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and rebuked Tang Li Xue in a disapproved tone: "Little Xue, your attitude is incorrect. You should never underestimate the danger in the Secret Realm."
"Even though that is only the Secret Realm of the fallen ancient sect, but the danger inside it should not be low."
"There will definitely be many hidden formations and traps. That is the reason why the previous second phase of the contest tested us in dealing with those things."
"No one knows what we have to face inside the Secret Realm, so we should never let our guard down." Instructor Mei Lan exined with a solemn expression.
Tang Li Xue nodded with a serious expression and replied: "I understand, Instructor Mei Lan. I will never underestimate the Secret Realm anymore. I will raise my guard to maximum once we enter the Secret Realm."
But Instructor Mei Lan denied Tang Li Xue''s words again: "Nope, it would be toote by then! We should prepare to face any unexpected situations or dangers in the Secret Realm starting from now."
"We have to prepare many extremely crucial items such as Formation Breaking Treasure and Illusion Cracking Treasure. Not to mention something like antidote pill, healing pill, and so on..." Instructor Mei Lan began to tell Tang Li Xue and Sillt Fox what they needed to prepare before they went to the Secret Realm.
Despite already exined everything in detail, Instructor Mei Lan was still very worried about Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox, so she decided to go with them after the ss ended, so she could look after their preparation and remind them if they stillcked something.
Instructor Mei Lan ended their lesson earlier today.
After that, Instructor Mei Lan led Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox to go shopping and buy everything they needed in the market and auction house.
Bingbing and Yan Fei also shamelessly went with them, since they had nothing important to do today.
Silly Fox was still penniless as always, so Tang Li Xue lent him her credits to buy what he needed.
She still had more than nine million credits from winning the bet with Zi Yan anyway.
It took an entire day for them to shop around the market and auction house.
Under Instructor Mei Lan''s guidance, Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox finally bought everything they needed after the sky turnedpletely dark.
Tang Li Xue also bought a lot of souvenirs for Bingbing and Yan Fei, then she also bought a lot of delicious snacks and delicacies for the two gluttons at home.
Tang Li Xue felt intense heartache when her total credits had shrunk to less than one million in only one day!
"s~! Someone said the faster we obtain the money, the faster we will spend it. I thought it was only nonsense, but it was actually true!" Tang Li Xue groaned painfully.
After their group returned to the Residential Building together, Tang Li Xue bid her farewell to them before they went back to their respective room.
When Tang Li Xue stepped into her courtyard, her perfect copy, Yaya, and Little Loki had already pounced at her.
"Whoah~! So many delicious foods and snacks~! Your conscience finally awakened ~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy praised while taking away Tang Li Xue''s space pouch swiftly.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes, but she did not bother to argue with her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue happily hugged Little Loki who jumped toward her while Yaya already gave her a gentle wee back kiss.
After ying around with Little Loki and Yaya for a while, she quickly let them eat the delicious snacks and foods she brought home before her perfect copy finished all of them.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue entered the bedroom and sat cross-
legged on her soft bed.
"We only have a few more days before we must be heading out to the location of Secret Realm with the exploration team." Tang Li Xue murmured in a solemn expression.
"Instructor Mei Lan has already given us a few days off, so we can prepare ourselves. But for me, the most important thing I have to do right now is to improve my strength as much as possible before going to the Secret Realm!" Tang Li Xue said in a firm tone.
Tang Li Xue began to take out all of the ck boxes stored in her space pouch.
She nned to consume all of the precious treasures in those ck boxes to increase her level and cultivation realm!
Tang Li Xue''s level was currently at 39.
She was only 1 level away from the maximum level 40.
Meanwhile, her cultivation realm was only at the Rank 3 Foundation Establishment Stage.
Her strength would not improve much even if her level increased by 1 and reached the maximum level 40, but the cultivation realm waspletely different.
If Tang Li Xue''s cultivation managed to reach the Core Formation Stage, then her strength would increase significantly again!
So, Tang Li Xue thought that she had to reach the Core Formation Stage before she entered the Secret Realm no matter what it cost!
Not to mention that Instructor Mei Lan reminded them again and again about the danger in the Secret Realm.
Instructor Mei Lan and the exploration team should already have a rough idea about the history of this fallen ancient sect''s secret realm, so they might already know that there would be a lot of danger in that secret realm.
Tang Li Xue even had considered for her perfect copy to use [Paranormal Intuition], so they could see all of the dangers in the secret realm ahead of time.
Unfortunately, their time was almost running out right now, so Tang Li Xue decided to reject that idea.
If she urged her perfect copy to use [Paranormal Intuition], then her perfect copy would definitely pass out for an entire day.
Their time was extremely limited, and every second was very crucial, so it would be much better for her perfect copy to help her consume these precious treasures so their cultivation realm could increase faster!
After fifteen minutes or so, her perfect copy also entered the bedroom and said to Tang Li Xue: "Okay, I am ready... Let''s begin~!"
"Is it really okay? You have already eaten so many snacks, right? Do you need an hour''s break?" Tang Li Xue asked skeptically.
"Are you looking down on me?! Those snacks and foods are clearly too little to fill me up!" The perfect copy confidently said.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and thought: ''All right, it seems you have already forgotten that you puked several times when you ate so many of the royal jellies before.''
"Hey, hey, hey~! You should know that I can hear your thoughts, right?! And you still dare to bring that up?! It was you who forced me to keep swallowing so many royal jellies at that time!" The perfect copy resentfully scolded Tang Li Xue.
Chapter 799 799: Breakthrough To Core Formation Stage!
Chapter 799 Chapter 799: Breakthrough To Core Formation Stage!
After squabbling with her perfect copy for a while, Tang Li Xue finally shouted in annoyance: "Okay, that is enough! Let''s begin!"
Then Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy began to pick the precious materials from the ck boxes.
Tang Li Xue picked several [Marrow Cleansing Mushroom] and stuffed them into her mouth, while her perfect copy grabbed a handful of [Meridian Connecting Flowers] and began to chew them slowly.
[Exp Gained]~!
[Exp Gained]~!
[Exp Gained]~!
.....
Tang Li Xue''s experience began to soar rapidly as both she and her perfect copy started to devour all of the precious treasures inside the several ck boxes bit by bit.
It was truly unfortunate that Tang Li Xue did not have any more [2 Times EXP Cards] left since she had already used all of them before the Foxes Hunting Festival.
But that was all right, and Tang Li Xue did not mind it since she could make it up by consumingrge amounts of precious treasures.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy clearly could not finish consuming therge amount of the precious treasures stored inside the several ck boxes in one go.
So, they would decide to stop when they felt that they could not eat anymore and start practicing the Profound Law of Heat and Cold from [Yin And Yang Chaotic Form] together.
By practicing the Profound Law of Heat and Cold together, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy felt it became much easier to practice it, and their proficiency soared much quickerpared to when they practiced alone.
This cyclested for a few days...
All they did in these few days was eat precious treasures until their stomach was bloated and practice the Profound Law of Heat and Cold together without sleeping or doing anything...
Yin and Yang Chaotic Form (Profound Law of Heat and Cold [3.0%]) --> [3.5%]
Despite their joint hard effort, they only managed to push the proficiency to increase by 0.5% in these few days.
Of course, it was already quite impressive since technically, Tang Li Xue or her perfect copy could only increase the proficiency by 0.02% by practicing every 8 hours.
However, Tang Li Xue did not really bother to think about that right now, since she was extremely pleased by her rapid growth in these few days.
*Ding~!
[Congrattion! You have reached level 40! Stat Point +100, Skill Point +15]
[Your level has reached the maximum limit, and it can no longer be increased. Please evolve to a higher-grade beast as soon as possible, so your level can continue to increase.]
[Congrattions! Your cultivation level has reached the Rank 4 Foundation Establishment Stage!]
[Congrattions! Your cultivation level has reached the Rank 5 Foundation Establishment Stage!]
.....
[Congrattions! Your cultivation level has reached the Rank 8 Foundation Establishment Stage!]
"Muehehehe~! Finally reached the Rank 8 Foundation Establishment Stage! Only one more level up to reach rank 9, and I can breakthrough to the Core Formation Stage~!" Tang Li Xueughed pleasantly at her rapid breakthrough.
"Not good~!" Her perfect copy suddenly eximed in surprise.
"What is wrong?" Tang Li Xue asked curiously.
The perfect copy flipped thest ck boxes upside down and said in a helpless tone: "We have alreadypletely consumed everything."
"What?! No way, right?! Damn it~! We are only one step away from reaching the Core Formation Stage!" Tang Li Xue stood up agitatedly and began to rummage all of the ck boxes only to find that all of them were already empty.
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy weakly sat on the soft bed together in a gloomy mood.
After pondering carefully for a few moments, Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth and grasped her fist while saying in a firm tone: "It seems we have no choice... Let''s just consume all of the Royal Jelly and Honey we got from Sapphire Armored Wasps!"
The perfect copy widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and immediately stated her disagreement: "Are you crazy?! Those things are our lifesaver!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Sapphire Armored Wasp''s Royal Jelly]
[Description: Extremely high nutritious jelly secreted by Sapphire Armored Wasps. Used to feed wasprvae and queen wasps.]
[Effect: Increase Strength, Toughness, and Agility by a lot. First-time consumption will have a one hundred percent chance to awaken defense-type divine ability ording to the consumer race.]
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Sapphire Armored Wasp''s Honey]
[Description: A sweet nutritious product made by Sapphire Armored Wasps that is endowed with yummy vor and a lot of medicinal uses.]
[Effect: Cures any wounds, disabilities, disease, poison, curse, silence, paralyze, confusion, blind, mute, deaf, concussion, soul injury, and so on. ]
-----------------------------------------------------------------
It could easily be seen from its effect that [Sapphire Armored Wasp''s Royal Jelly] was extremely precious, and they could sell or trade it for something equally precious.
Even Tang Li Xue did not have much Royal Jelly after she consumed it herself and shared some of it with her close friends such as Yaya, Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox before.
The effect of [Sapphire Armored Wasp''s Honey] could be called the true miracle elixir. It was a real life-saving medicine, and they might not be able to find another kind of medicine that could be as good as it is in the future.
But Tang Li Xue tried to argue with her perfect copy by saying: "We already have [Quick Restore] with the same effect as [Sapphire Armored Wasp''s Honey] anyway."
"No matter how good these Royal Jelly and Honey are, what we really need this time is to be as strong as possible."
"We would definitely face a lot of unknown dangers once we enter Secret Realm."
"Not to mention that we also have the n of using [Treasure Map] to find the precious treasures containing abundant star energies in Secret Realmter."
"And we would also want to find a good hidden ce to evolve inside that ce..."
"Only with sufficient strength, we can do all of those taskster!"
Tang Li Xue stated her idea tantly.
However, her perfect copy still felt reluctant, so she muttered in an unsure tone: "But... It is such a huge waste to consume all of them just to gain experience points like this..."
"Oh, right~! Can we just exchange them for the other treasures that have abundant energy?! I am sure Teacher Li Wei or Instructor Lan would be d to ept them, right?" Perfect copy excitedly suggested to Tang Li Xue.
But Tang Li Xue could only shake her head helplessly and replied: "It is toote for us to do that. The sky has almost turned dark, and we already have to go with the exploration team to the location of the Secret Realm very early tomorrow."
Tang Li Xue actually felt guilty and regretful about that.
She felt their current predicament happened because of her miscalction.
She saw there were so many precious treasures in the several ck boxes, so she thought that they would surely be enough for her to enter the Core Formation Stage before.
Who knew that she was still one step away from breaking through to the Core Formation Stage right now after she consumed all of the precious treasures in the several ck boxes?!
After regretting andmenting together for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy finally reached a consensus.
Just consume everything to breakthrough to Core Formation Stage!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy began to consume Sapphire Armored Wasp''s Royal Jelly and Honey together with sorrowful tears in their eyes.
[Exp Gained]~!
[Exp Gained]~!
...
Tang Li Xue''s experience points began to soar rapidly again!
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level has reached the Rank 9 Foundation Establishment Stage!]
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy became more and more anxious as the amount of Sapphire Armored Wasp''s Royal Jelly and Honey kept decreasing very quickly, but their cultivation level still did not increase to the peak.
They were really afraid that the amount of Royal Jelly and Honey would still not be enough for them to reach the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Fortunately, their worry did not happen.
They had alreadypletely consumed all of the Royal Jelly, but just when they had almostpletely eaten all of the Honey too.
[Congrattion! Your cultivation level has reached the Rank 10 Foundation Establishment Stage!]
"Finally..." Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy sat weakly on the soft bed while sighing in relief.
After resting for an hour or so to adjust her condition to peak, Tang Li Xue folded her fair smooth legs and sat on her soft bed in the lotus position.
Meanwhile, the perfect copy, Yaya, and Little Loki stopped their practice, and they decided to guard Tang Li Xue since they were worried that some ident would happen again like before.
Tang Li Xue smiled and nodded at them to reassure them.
Yaya and Little Loki also waved their hands and paws to encourage Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and muttered with a firm tone: "Let''s begin now~! System~!"
----------------------------------------------------------

*Ding!
[Do you want toprehend Four Mythical Beast Art (Azure Dragon Chapter) with the cost of 210 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
----------------------------------------------------------
----
Tang Li Xue has more than six thousand Deity Coins, so spending 210 Deity Coins toprehend the Azure Dragon Chapter from Four Mythical Beast Art was nothing for her.
Tang Li Xue chose ''YES'' without any hesitation.
Theplete knowledge of the Azure Dragon chapter from the [Four Mythical Beast Art] began to flood into her mind.
Tang Li Xue instantlyprehended the Azure Dragon chapter as if the fog that covered some parts of [Four Mythical Beast Art] in her mind had been cleared out.
Different from before, the four chapters in [Four Mythical Beast Art] started to resonate with each other after Tang Li Xuepletelyprehended all of them!
The image of four Mythical Beasts started to form around Tang Li Xue!
YIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~!
ROOOOOOAAAAARR~!
HIIIIIIISSS~!
ROOOOOAAAAARR~!
The majestic image of Crimson Phoenix, ck Tortoise, White Tiger, and Azure Dragon spun around Tang Li Xue.
Chapter 800 800: Unexpected Life-Threatening Situation!
Chapter 800 Chapter 800: Unexpected Life-Threatening Situation!
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes as she concentrated on digesting all of the knowledge about theplete chapters of [Four Mythical Beast Art].
Perfect copy poured several small hills of spirit stones from her space pouch around the real Tang Li Xue.
Each breakthrough to the higher big realm needed a lot of spiritual energy.
Tang Li Xue already prepared for her breakthrough to the Core Formation Stage by trading a few million of her credits with these spirit stones a few days ago.
It really made Tang Li Xue''s heart ache so badly, but it could not be helped since these spirit stones were indispensable for her breakthrough.
"All right, here goes nothing~! It is the time to break through to the Core Formation Stage!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a firm tone as she shook her moist slender fist to cheer herself up.
-------------------------------------------------------------
*Ding!
[Your cultivation had reached the limit of the Foundation Establisment Stage. Do you want to break through to the Core Formation Stage? Yes/No]
--------------------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes again and began to operate the Azure Dragon Chapter of [Four Mythical Beast Art] while choosing with her mind: ''YES!''
Each chapter of [Four Mythical Beast Art] must be cultivated in the appropriate ce.
The Crimson Phoenix chapter must be cultivated in an extremely hot ce full of fire, but Tang Li Xue skipped that requirement because her me of Pride assisted her before.
The ck Tortoise chapter must be cultivated in a ce with a lot of water like in the middle of theke, ocean, or river, but Tang Li Xue also skipped this requirement because her own martial soul, the [Golden Winged Serpent], helped her at that time.
The White Tiger chapter must be cultivated in a ce with strong wind like a ce near a storm or typhoon, but there was Yaya helped Tang Li Xue to skip that requirement too previously.
The current Azure Dragon Chapter had the same requirements as the others, but it must be cultivated in a ce with a lot of lightning!
Tang Li Xue has faced a dilemma because of it...
At first, she nned to ask for Silly Fox''s help with his [Lightning of Destruction].
However, she immediately denied that idea since Silly Fox''s [Lightning of Destruction] was actually not lightning elemental, but it was condensed from the power of destruction in the form of ck lightning.
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to ask for Yaya''s help again since Yaya had alreadypletely refined her [Storm Calling Pearl], so her every skill and ability would be apanied by lightning.
After a few days of nurturing and strengthening, the power of lightning imbued by [Storm Calling Pearl] had grown many times strongerpared to before.
Tang Li Xue could only hope that the lightning from [Storm Calling Pearl] would be enough for her breakthrough to the Core Formation Stage.
Just as Yaya wanted to use the lightning from [Storm Calling Pearl] to assist Tang Li Xue''s breakthrough, somethingpletely out of everyone''s expectations suddenly happened!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
BOOOOOOOM~!
The deafening sounds of thunder echoed through the entire Tang Li Xue''s room space!
Dark clouds covered the entire sky until it turned pitch ck like night!
The terrifying blinding purple lightning kept shing in the sky above the room space!
The room space began to tremble violently as if it could no longer entire the pressure from the terrifying purple lightning, and it could copse at any time!
Tang Li Xue quickly opened her topaz blue eyes and ran toward the window to see the sky outside the house.
"Oh, damn~! Don''t tell me that this is... Lightning Tribtion?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in shock and disbelief.
The good news was... She no longer needed to rely on the lightning from Yaya''s [Storm Calling Pearl] for her breakthrough since the power of Lightning Tribtion should be more than enough for that.
The bad news was that... the Lightning Tribtion was clearly too powerful, and even the room space could not hold on for much longer!
Countless thin cracks began to spread around the room space as if this entire space was made from fragile ss!
If this entire room space entirely copsed, there was no guarantee that she, Yaya, and Little Loki could survive inside it!
"Yaya~!" Tang Li Xue shouted in an urgent tone.
Yaya nodded at Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression as she turned into a sh of green light and merged into Tang Li Xue''s body.
*Ding!
[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]
Tang Li Xue immediately activated her [Wings of Freedom] and Yaya''s [Wind Guardian Blessing], then she flew out from her room at an extremely fast speed!
She did not stop after she went out of her room!
Tang Li Xue swiftly flew out from the Residential Building''s window before the terrifying Lightning Tribtion could strike the Residential Building!
Tang Li Xue did not even dare to imagine how many credits she must pay topensate if the several top floors of Residential Building were ruined because of her terrifying Lightning Tribtion.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered violently in fright just thinking about it...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
BOOOOOOOM~!
As soon as Tang Li Xue flew out of the Residential Building, the terrifying purple Lightning Tribtion suddenly struck her!
Tang Li Xue fell down from the sky and mmed heavily onto the street!
Thankfully, no one got hurt because of her fall from the height.
But all of the foxes in the street hastily dispersed when Tang Li Xue fell down leaving a deep hole with a human pattern in the street.
Tang Li Xue slowly got up while coughing out a few mouthfuls of blood from her mouth.
"Are you all right, little girl?" One of the kind fox girls asked Tang Li Xue.
"Cough, cough... Thank you, but I am okay. Get away from here quickly everyone~!" Tang Li Xue shouted to warn everyone as she flew upward again to face another Lightning Tribtion!
The storm raged more and more violently as time passed!
Tang Li Xue canceled her human form transfiguration and transformed back to her true fox form, so she could use her full strength to face the Lightning Tribtion.
But her act seemed to anger the Lightning Tribtion even more!
The purple color of Lightning Tribtion became even deeper and darker.
Tang Li Xue could sense that the Lightning Tribtion seemed to be much more terrifying and dangerous than before!
"Oops~! This is not looking good at all..." Tang Li Xue whispered in worry.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! BOOOOOMM~!
A bolt of dark purple lightning struck Tang Li Xue for the second time!
This time, the power of the Lightning Tribtion was dozens of times more powerful than the first one!
[Reflective Barrier]~!
She also used [Energy Maniption] to add another [Transparent Barrier]!
But her twoyers of defense shattered apart by the dark purple Lightning Tribtion in the blink of an eye!
The dark purple Lightning Tribtion pushed Tang Li Xue forcefully until she fell heavily onto the middle of the street for the second time!
Even the street was wrecked.
The rocks and sand were scattered everywhere.
The towering trees beside the street were uprooted and flew into the sky!
Just the ray of destructive lightning from the catastrophe split a few shops on the side of the street and left several deep scars on the ground with a diameter of dozens of meters.
"PUUUUFF~!" Tang Li Xue spurted out several mouthfuls of blood as her wounds had gotten much worse than before.
To make it worse, this was only the second strike of Lightning Tribtion!
Many of the foxes were already running away in panic, but some of the cowardly ones were actually trembling and froze in fear.
Several foxes'' children even cried instead of running away.
Fortunately, there was a fox elder who made a move to save those foxes by bringing them out from the radius of Tang Li Xue''s tribtion.
"Err, elder... I also need some help... Can you please help me to block that scary lightning?" Tang Li Xue shamelessly asked for the fox elder''s help since the fox elder looked like a kind auntie.
But the fox elder rolled her eyes instead and replied: "You still dare to ask for help from me?! Did you know that the Lightning Tribtion will get even stronger the more creatures are in its radius?!"
"I am sorry, but I cannot help you. If I forcefully intercept your Lightning Tribtion, it would only anger the heavenly rules even more."
"Not only your breakthrough will definitely fail, but both will fall into a much more dangerous situation."
"You... Sigh... Did your elder or teacher never teach you anything about breakthrough?!"
"As Beast Race, our breakthrough in cultivation or evolution would be much more dangerous than Human Race, so we have to make many preparations beforehand."
"How dare you breakthrough to Nascent Soul Stage without any proper preparations like this?!" The fox auntie nagged Tang Li Xue for a while before she quickly got away from there.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
"Wait a minute, auntie... I only breakthrough to Core Formation Stage~!" Tang Li Xue shouted, but the fox auntie could no longer hear Tang Li Xue''s voice since the Lightning Tribtion had already struck down for the third time.
Chapter 801 801: Unavoidable Danger!
Chapter 801 Chapter 801: Unavoidable Danger!
Tang Li Xue did not even have enough time to react as the terrifying Lightning Tribtion struck her mercilessly for the third time!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! BOOOOOMM~!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (2/3)]
Despite [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection helped Tang Li Xue to resist the third Lightning Tribtion, but many of her furs and skin were scorched by the Lightning Tribtion.
Even her entire body felt stiff and painful by the fearsome lightning shock.
Tang Li Xue took out a?[Talisman of Regeneration +3] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2], then used them on herself to recover her tearing and burning wounds caused by the Lightning Tribtion.
Tang Li Xue''s body was constantly burned by the frightening effect of Lightning Tribtion and healed by the effects of her talismans, her skill, and her divine ability.
This has been repeated countless times in only a few breaths of time.
If it was an ordinary person, even if their body could bear it, their spirit might have already copse in severe pain.
But Tang Li Xue could still bear it since she had already undergo worse painful torture several times such as when she evolve or when she merge with me of Pride before.
Moreover, her [Indomitable Will] skill did not disappear after it wasbined with the other several other skills to be [Paranormal Intuition].
On the contrary, the effects of those skills got enhanced by several times after they merged to be [Paranormal Intuition], but it was just not mentioned in the?[Paranormal Intuition]''s description.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger, and she really wanted to curse the stormy sky so badly, but she was afraid that it would get angrier and punish her more cruelly.
"Okay, who cares about the feeling of that damn lightning, right?! Come on, you bast*rd~! I want to see how strong can you be~!" Tang Li Xue shouted in unbearable rage.
BOOOOOMM~!
As if to answer Tang Li Xue''s provocation, the Lightning Tribtion really struck Tang Li Xue for the fourth time!
To make it worse, the power of this fourth lightning was a few more times more powerful and terrifying than the third lightning!
But Tang Li Xue did not bother to put on any guard since she knew that it would only be a futile effort.
Anyway, her [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection would block this fourth Lightning Tribtion for her.
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (1/3)]
Even though the [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection resisted the fourth Lightning Tribtion for Tang Li Xue, but all of her furs and skin werepletely burned this time.
She was the scorched ck bald fox and looked extremely ugly right now.
But it was clearly not the time for Tang Li Xue to worry about her current extremely ugly appearance since the fifth Lightning Tribtion was already brewing in the stormy sky, and it was far even more terrifying than before!
.....
The greatmotion caused by Tang Li Xue''s Core Formation Stage Tribtion attracted the attention of many foxes in Myriad Foxes Academy.
Even Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei also realized it.
Instructor Mei Lan already took out her flying disc and rode it to fly swiftly toward Tang Li Xue''s location, but she immediately bumped into Teacher Li Wei on her way.
"Is that caused by your littless?" Teacher Li Wei asked with a solemn expression.
"It should be so..." Instructor Mei Lan perfunctory replied to Teacher Li Wei.
"How could she trigger Lightning Tribtion? Is she going to evolve again? No, she should have just evolved a few months ago, so how could she evolve again?!" Teacher Li Wei asked again in a tone filled with disbelief.
Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to exin to Teacher Li Wei again as she hastily flew toward Tang Li Xue''s location.
But with her bright mind, Instructor Mei Lan could already mostly guess that Tang Li Xue should have a breakthrough into a higher cultivation realm instead of evolving to a higher grade.
Of course, Instructor Mei Lan was notpletely sure because she had also witnessed Tang Li Xue''s breakthrough to the Acupuncture Opening Stage a few months ago.
If Tang Li Xue was the only breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Stage, how could she trigger such a powerful Lightning Tribtionparable to breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage right now?!
Well... Instructor Mei Lan would certainly be extremely surprised if she knew that Tang Li Xue jumped to the Core Formation Stage right now after only a few months had passed since then.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned in worry: "This could spell lots of trouble. It should be impossible to cover that Little Xue already had human cultivation before she could take the path to evolve into the true Spirit Beast."
Normally, any beast could only have human cultivation once they took the human regression path to evolve into the true Spirit Beast, but Tang Li Xue could actually have human cultivation way earlier on.
When taking the human regression path, any beast would momentarily lose all of their divine abilities and strength as a beast and regress back to bing weak mortal.
Then they have to start their human cultivation path like human cultivators and only after they reach a certain cultivation level that their dormant power as the beast will bepletely awakened once again.
Only after reaching that point could they finally advance sessfully to the true Spirit Beast rank.
This phase was also known as the Mortal Tribtion by all Beast Race.
But the biggest problem about that was when they regressed back to be a weak mortal, they could easily get killed by anyone!
From that, it could easily be imagined how important Tang Li Xue''s secret was to have human cultivation ahead of time before they lost all of their power as beasts!
It meant once Tang Li Xue reached the requirement to evolve into a true Spirit Beast, she might be able to instantly advance to the true Spirit Beast rank without undergoing the Mortal Tribtion!
This secret would surely coveted by the entire Beast Race!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue could have opened her Dantian and had human cultivation way ahead of time because of her System''s help, so she really could not help others to have it too.
If not for that, she might have already helped her close friends such as Bingbing, Silly Fox, Instructor Mei Lan, Yan Fei, and so on to also open their Dantian and have human cultivation earlier just like her.
But the problem right now was that... could everyone really believe it if she just said some random excuses like if she could have human cultivation because she identally consume a mythical fruit or something like that?
Maybe some people... or beasts would believe it, but the risk of her being targeted by many other beasts or be their guinea pig would be unavoidable.
"s, Little Xue.... You should at least tell something extremely important like this to me first, so I can make some preparations to cover it for you! Sigh... Unfortunately, it is already far toote to do it right now." Instructor Mei Lanmented in a regretful tone.
Actually, Tang Li Xue also did not have any clue that she would have to face such terrifying Lightning Tribtion when she breakthrough to the Core Formation Stage.
She only heard that the most qualitative change was when the cultivator reached Nascent Soul Stage, so she thought she would only need to face such terrifying tribtion after she reached Nascent Soul Stageter.
Well... it might be true for normal human, but Tang Li Xue was from the Beast Race after all, so she had to face tribtion earlier than Human Race.
Not to mention that she was an anomaly who had human cultivation before she took human regression path to evolve into true Spirit Beast, so the Heaven Rules clearly could not ept such an anomaly like Tang Li Xue thus it gave much heavier tribtion with the intention to erase the anomaly from this world!
.....
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (0/3)]
Tang Li Xue''s entire scorched body twitched in numbness after she received the terrifying fifth Lightning Tribtion.
But the even more powerful sixth Lightning Tribtion had already prepared to strike down to deliver the finishing blow to her!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! BOOOOOMM~!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she could only watch helplessly when the murderous sixth Lightning Tribtion struck her scorched body!
*Ding!
[Detecting Host is in critical life-threatening condition. (Damage Transfer) skill automatically activated and transferred all of your injuries and the damages you received to the perfect copy!]
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (2/3)]
Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief when she saw the notification from her system.
But her perfect copy was not so lucky...
Since she received all of Tang Li Xue''s injuries and damages, she instantly felt as if the murderous sixth Lightning Tribtion was striking her instead!
Her entire body instantly scorched ck, and she fell weakly on the ground while twitching violently because of the great lightning shock.
''Damn you, Copy Abuser~!'' Perfect copy cursed Tang Li Xue in her mind.
''Why the heck are you cursing me?! You should curse that damn Lightning Tribtion instead!'' Tang Li Xue rebuked her perfect copy in rage.
''Oh, right... Damn you, Lightning Tribtion Bast*rd~!'' Perfect copy also began to curse Lightning Tribtion with Tang Li Xue.
While Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy busily cursed the Lightning Tribtion in their mind, Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei had already reached Tang Li Xue''s location.
Chapter 802 802: Overcome Tribulation!
Chapter 802 Chapter 802: Ovee Tribtion!
It did not take long for Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei to sense that there were also many other foxes who were currently watching Tang Li Xue face the Lightning Tribtion with great interest.
Instructor Mei Lan was worried that the other foxes or beasts would target Tang Li Xue once this matter spread, so she was thinking hard about how to solve this problem.
Meanwhile, Teacher Li Wei frowned in worry when he saw Tang Li Xue''s miserable appearance.
"Her current situation does not look good, and she only reaches the sixth Lightning Tribtion so far. There should be three more Lightning Tribtions after that. Should we help her to ovee the Lightning Tribtion?" Teacher Li Wei asked for Instructor Mei Lan''s opinion.
After pondering carefully for a while, surprisingly Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and rejected Teacher Li Wei''s idea instead: "There is no need for us to do that. I believe she can ovee the Lightning Tribtion with her own strength."
Of course, it was not because Instructor Mei Lan had apletely blind trust in Tang Li Xue''s strength and ability, but because she knew that Tang Li Xue had another dependable guy to help her ovee this Lightning Tribtion, Little Loki!
Instructor Mei Lan had already seen Little Loki use its [Heaven''s Devour] several times, so she knew exactly the horror of this little ck kitten who always satzily on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head.
It should not be a problem for that little ck kitten to devour the Lightning Tribtion with its devouring ability.
Based on Tang Li Xue''s cking personality that Instructor Mei Lan understood so far, Tang Li Xue should have already asked for Little Loki''s help if she did not urgently need something by facing the Lightning Tribtion alone.
Well... Instructor Mei Lan''s guess was actually extremely on point.
If Tang Li Xue did not need Lightning Tribtion for operating her Azure Dragon Chapter of [Four Mythical Beast Art] to reachplete the breakthrough to the Core Formation Stage, she would have already asked for Little Loki''s help to devour that damned Lightning Tribtion long ago!
But Instructor Mei Lan''s worries were not on Tang Li Xue''s Lightning Tribtion, but on how to clean up all of the messes caused by her breakthrough!
Since she did not have any good solution for that, she could only helplessly decide to call for help...
Instructor Mei Lan took out hermunication talisman from her space pouch and used it to call someone: "Hello, old man. I need your help..."
When Teacher Li Wei saw what Instructor Mei Lan had done, he also took out hismunication talisman and asked for help from some of his acquaintances to cover this matter for his inscriptions student, Tang Li Xue.
.....
Right at this time, Tang Li Xue had already sessfully ovee the seventh and eighth Lightning Tribtion.
The lightning and thunder struck by the catastrophe became stronger and stronger every time it struck!
Especially the eighth Lightning Tribtion that might have even surpassed Lei Qian''er''s strongest three-colored lightning strike!
*Ding!
[Detecting Host is in critical life-threatening condition. (Damage Transfer) skill automatically activated and transferred all of your injuries and the damages you received to the perfect copy!]
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (0/3)]
Thankfully, the [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection managed to block six Lightning Tribtions in total starting from the third to the eighth catastrophe.
Tang Li Xue could feel that her Golden Core which had been continuously tempered by the terrifying Lightning Tribtion so far became even more perfect and powerful surpassing most of the other Golden Cores.
The effort of heavenly rules to kill Tang Li Xue not only ended up failing but also made her stronger so far.
At this point, the ck cloud in the sky had been thinning a lotpared to before as if it could disperse at any time.
"Is it over? No way, right? ording to all the novels I have read, there should be nine Lightning Tribtions.'' Tang Li Xue thought in doubt.
Just when Tang Li Xue and the others thought that it should be over...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The thunderstorm in the sky was suddenly raging even more violently than ever!
Countless lightning and thunder continuously intertwined with each other, it gradually condensed to form a huge dark purple lightning dragon thousands of feet tall!
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Instructor Mei Lan: "???!!!"
Teacher Li Wei: "???!!!"
No one ever thought that the Lightning Tribtion could reach this level!
It seemed as if the Heavenly Rules truly determined to eliminate Tang Li Xue as the anomaly of this Immortal World at all costs!
"Xue~! (Little Xue~!) (Brother Feng~!)" Silly Fox, Bingbing, and Yan Fei who had watched from the window of the Residential Building finally could not hold on their worry, and they almost wanted to jump toward Tang Li Xue, then help her to face the lightning dragon tribtion!
But Instructor Mei Lan had appeared right in front of them, and she blocked them in order for them not to make any rash move which would only hinder Tang Li Xue''s breakthrough.
"Instructor Lan?!"Silly Fox and Bingbing eximed in surprise.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and warned them: "You do not need to worry about Little Xue. She already has her own n. If you jump to help her right now, you will only be her burden instead."
This time, even Little Loki was extremely worried about Tang Li Xue''s safety.
"Nyaaa Meo Nyaw? (Is it really all right?)" Little Loki nced at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and asked.
The perfect copy patted Little Loki''s tiny furry head gently and replied in a reassuring tone: "Don''t worry Little Loki. She still has a lot of trump cards that she has not used yet. Even if she got killed by that lightning dragon, I would be the one who take her ce."
The huge dark purple lightning dragon red at the tiny Tang Li Xue with a hint of contempt in its eyes.
If it was the other people who saw this scene, they would probably be very frightened in silence.
But Tang Li Xue sneered at the huge dark purple lightning dragon mockingly and waved her paw to provoke it!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue was currently in her fox form, if she was still in her fox form, she would have already raised her middle finger toward the lightning dragon.
ROOOOOOOOAAAAAARRR~!
The thousands of feet tall huge dark purple lightning dragon roared in great rage as it dived toward Tang Li Xue with a speed much faster than ordinary lightning!
Tang Li Xue also activated her [Wind Burst Step] and flew toward the lightning dragon fearlessly at an extremely high speed many times beyond her maximum speed!
When other creatures ovee their Lightning Tribtion, they would definitely try to avoid it if they could, or use external force such as spirit treasures, talismans, or pills to resist it if they could not avoid it.
However, Tang Li Xue took the initiative to fight it head-on instead!
Almost all of the foxes who watched it thought that Tang Li Xue must have already lost her mind.
Well... Except for Instructor Mei Lan, because what Tang Li Xue had currently done right now was inconsistent with her character, so she believed that Tang Li Xue would definitely do it for a good reason.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
A scorched fox and a lightning dragon instantly collided violently in the sky!
But right before they collided violently with each other, Tang Li Xue had activated her [Sun And Moon Protection]!
(Sun And Moon Protection: Grant invulnerable for 2 seconds.)
With Tang Li Xue''s current abilities, she surely would not be able to hurt the enormous lightning dragon, so she could only use another effect of [Sun And Moon Aegis] to fight against it.
[Sun And Moon Aegis]''s 3rd effect: Reflect 25% of the attack you received as pure damage to your nearby opponents!
She already went as far as provoking the anger of the huge lightning dragon, just so it would attack with all of its power to obliterate herself, so 25% reflected pure damage should be extremely painful for that huge lightning dragon, right?!
''Eat this, you damned bast*rd~!'' Tang Li Xue angrily cursed in her mind.
Just like Tang Li Xue had expected, the huge dark purple lightning dragon broke apart to pieces and dispersed under its own devastating attacking power!
The dense dark purple lightning absorbed by Tang Li Xue''s body and once more tempered her Golden Core.
YIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~!
AAAAAANGGG~!
HIIIIIIISSS~!
ROOOOOAAAAARR~!
The majestic figures of Crimson Phoenix, ck Tortoise, White Tiger, and Azure Dragon appeared once again around Tang Li Xue.
Different from the previous faint images, the current four mythical beasts looked real as if they were the newly born four mythical beasts!
Then Tang Li Xue''s Golden Core suddenly flew out from her Dantian!
The Crimson Phoenix, ck Tortoise, White Tiger, and Azure Dragon actually merged with Tang Li Xue''s Golden Core!
Thepletely dumbfounded Tang Li Xue could see the figures of four mythical beasts engraved on the surface of her Golden Core very lively and clearly as if they could fly out of it anytime.
The Golden Core merged back into Tang Li Xue''s body and rested inside her Dantian along with the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl].
Right now, Tang Li Xue''s Dantian is divided into four different areas.
me area: Volcano, water area: Ocean, wind area: Windy Mountain, andstly lightning area: Vast Sky full of Stormy Clouds.
Chapter 803 803: Avoiding Limelight!
Chapter 803 Chapter 803: Avoiding Limelight!
The Phoenix of Pride was still sleeping peacefully alone near the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in the Volcano area.
[Golden Winged Serpent] was swimming happily in the Ocean area filled with water-elemental spiritual energy.
The Stormy Sky area filled with lightning-elemental spiritual energy and the Windy Mountain area filled with wind-elemental spiritual energy was still empty right now.
But Tang Li Xue already had thought to let Yaya upy the Windy Mountain area and Little Loki upy the Stormy Sky area as their cultivation ce, so she did not need to put Yaya and Little Loki in her System''s pet space anymore in the future.
Right at the center of four different areas in Tang Li Xue''s Dantian, her rotating Golden Core with lifelike Four Mythical Beasts carved on its surface was floating below the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl].
When Tang Li Xue flew down from the sky andnded gracefully on the ruined street, her extremely powerful breath which surpassed any Core Formation Stage cultivators spread around making the surrounding sand, rocks, and dust scattered away from her.
"Woah~! So, this is the Core Formation Stage?! So powerful~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in a delightful tone.
She even felt that she could use her current human form to defeat her previous self in the fox form easily.
It meant she had be at least three times stronger than her previous self before her breakthrough to the Core Formation Stage!
Tang Li Xue was extremely excited and pleased for a few moments.
She had already read many cultivation novels in her previous life and dreamed of bing an invincible immortal fairy many times, but she would only wake up disappointingly in the hospital with her weak sickly body.
Who knew right now she could finally reach this point for real?!
Core Formation Stage or Golden Core Realm!
In any cultivation novels or stories, that realm was already quite high enough to be an important core elder in any sect!
It took a while before Tang Li Xue calmed down, then she eventually realized something extremely horrible when she watched so many ruined buildings and streets around her.
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body shuddered in fright as if she was suddenly falling into the cold icy water.
"Oh, no~! So many buildings, shops, and even the street have copsed because of my Lightning Tribtion! I wonder how many credits I must pay topensate them?! Damn it, it should be at least hundreds of millions of credits, right? What to do?! I... I only have around five hundred thousand credits left on my card." Tang Li Xue muttered in panic.
Then a familiar gentle feminine voice resounded from above Tang Li Xue: "Now you know how to feel afraid after what you have done? It is clearly already far toote for that!"
Tang Li Xue turned around and eximed: "Instructor Lan?! And... Teacher Li Wei too?!"
Teacher Li Wei did not bother to scold Tang Li Xue too as he said: "Let''s go~! We must hurry to head out of the Myriad Foxes Academy first right now, so we can temporarily avoid the limelight. We would just go to the location of the Secret Realm in advance."
"But... What about all of this damage caused by my Lightning Tribtion? Should I at least apologize to their owner first?" Tang Li Xue murmured with a tone filled with guilt.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and replied in a solemn tone: "You still have time to think about apologizing to others?! You should just think about how to save yourself first!"
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
The oblivious Tang Li Xue still could not understand what Instructor Mei Lan''s words meant.
However, this was?clearly not the right time for them to talk leisurely, so Instructor Mei Lan quickly pulled Tang Li Xue away with her.
"Xue~! (Little Xue~!) (Brother Feng~!)" Silly Fox, Bingbing, and Yan Fei quickly jumped down from the ruined Residential Building with Little Loki, then followed Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue from behind.
The situation was very chaotic right now, and many foxes with powerful strength were still busily calming down the panic masses while evacuating them to safer locations.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan''s parents and Teacher Li Wei''s acquaintances were currently trying to block and buy some time, so the other curious foxes with high authority would not make any rash moves such as Zi Hua and so on.
It was really the right time for them to take this chance to get out of the Myriad Foxes Academy.
If they only stayed still without doing anything, Tang Li Xue would definitely get caught and interrogated by many foxes with high authority sooner orter.
With their methods such as mind-controlling or mind-reading type divine abilities, there would be no guarantee that Tang Li Xue would not spill any crucial secret about herself.
So, it could be said that this should be the most dangerous situation for Tang Li Xue.
With their group''s current speed, it did not take long for them to reach Space Gate Hall.
Instructor Mei Lan immediately stopped Bingbing and Yan Fei before they could enter the Space Gate Hall: "Stop~! You two do not have the expedition ticket to the Secret Realm, so you two should just get back and rest."
"But Instructor Lan..." Bingbing tried toin while Yan Fei only stared at Tang Li Xue with a pair of tearful eyes.
Tang Li Xue was still in her fox form, but she stared back kindly at Bingbing and Yan Fei while saying in a soothing tone: "I know you two should be really worried about me, but I am all right."
Tang Li Xue shook away the scorched and dried skin from her body, and both her furs and skin had already recovered as good as before.
With the effect of her talismans, [High-Speed Regeneration] skill, and the [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s health regeneration effect, it only took some time for her to recover back to full health.
Bingbing and Yan Fei hugged Tang Li Xue tightly and cried in worry.
It took a while for Tang Li Xue to calm them down and bid farewell to the two of them, then Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei hastily dragged Tang Li Xue into the Space Gate Hall before anyone caught up to them, while Silly Fox followed closely behind them.
Little Loki jumped onto the top of Tang Li Xue''s furry head and sat down leisurely as always.
Their group jumped onto one of the giant stone rings before Teacher Li Wei took out his white jade badge from his space pouch and pointed it toward the giant stone ring.
The space in front of them split into two showed the scene in the middle of the dark lush forest since it was already night.
Their group hastily stepped into the space gate without any hesitation before the space gate closed again.
When they reached the dark lush forest, Tang Li Xue finally rxed a bit so she decided to cancel her Divine Possession mode with Yaya.
After asking for some time from Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei, Tang Li Xue created a white barrier with her [Energy Maniption] before she activated her human transfiguration to transform back from her fox form to human form.
Then Tang Li Xue created a set of pure white clothes with her [Energy Maniption] to cover her fair smooth naked human body.
''Tsk~! How could my immature lemons have not grown bigger at all?! So, I should really evolve to a higher-grade beast in order for them to grow bigger?!'' Tang Li Xueined unhappily in her mind.
If Instructor Mei Lan knew what Tang Li Xue thought right now, she might really lose her temper and scold: "You still have time to think about that after all the troubles you have caused?!"
Tang Li Xue dispersed the white barrier after that.
Tang Li Xue took out her white wind-riding bird from her mid-
rank space pouch and fed it with several Spirit Dew Cucumbers before she rode it.
Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and Silly Fox also rode their own wind-riding bird, then all of the wind-riding birds pped their wings and soared into the sky rapidly.
Their group finally began their journey to the location of the Secret Realm in advance before the exploration team.
Silly Fox took this chance to approach Tang Li Xue and said in a tone filled with confidence: "Xue~! You do not need to be afraid or worry~! Even without that Ice Girl and pampered crazy princess here, I would definitely be able to protect you alone !"
Tang Li Xue shook her head and replied: "You do not need to protect me. I am already very strong right now, so we should just cooperate to protect each other back instead, so we would be safer in the Secret Realmter."
But who knew that Instructor Mei Lan suddenly pulled Tang Li Xue''s furry fox ear until she almost fell down from her wind-
riding bird all of a sudden!
"Ouch, ouch, ouch~! Pain, so painful, Instructor Lan~!" Tang Li Xue cried in pain.
Instructor Mei Lan scolded Tang Li Xue in great rage: "Do you know what you have just done?! You should at least tell me first before making such a spectacr breakthrough, so I can help you cover it!"
"Who knows how many foxes would target you from now on since they might know that you have human cultivation!" Instructor Mei Lan coldly said to Tang Li Xue.
Even Teacher Li Wei added in a serious tone: "Little Lass, you might be in big trouble right now. The informationwork of our Fox n is the best among all Beast Race. The higher-ups would surely know about that sooner orter."
Chapter 804 804: Bookkeepers Fearsome Ability!
Chapter 804 804: Bookkeeper''s Fearsome Ability!
??Tang Li Xue instantly felt really worried after hearing Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei''s words.
"I am sorry, Instructor Lan, Teacher Li, to cause such a big trouble... But... I also never thought my breakthrough to the Core Formation Stage would trigger such terrifying Lightning Tribtions!" Tang Li Xue immediately exined to Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei in a tone filled with panic and helplessness.
Instructor Mei Lan finally released Tang Li Xue''s furry fox ear when she heard Tang Li Xue''s exnation.
lights¦¦Ïv¦Ål ?¦Ïm "So, you are only breaking through to the Core Formation Stage? Not to Nascent Soul Stage?" Instructor Mei Lan skeptically asked since the scale of Tang Li Xue''s Lightning Tribtions was clearly too horrifying for the Core Formation Stage''s breakthrough.
Especially thest Lightning Dragon tribtion was more than enough to kill any Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.
Tang Li Xue innocently nodded her head.
Teacher Li Wei sighed as he said: "I do not know anymore whether you are lucky or not. It is true that your Lightning Tribtions are too frighteningly powerful for your current level. But the benefit you get after you sessfully pass them should be quite massive, right?"
Tang Li Xue nodded her head cutely again with overflowing excitement that could not be concealed.
But her excitement immediately died down as she asked in a nervous and worried tone: "Then... Instructor Lan, Teacher Li... What should I do?"
Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei nced at each other with solemn expressions and pondered carefully for a few moments.
"It seems we can only wait and see the development about this matter first for now." Teacher Li Wei muttered in a helpless tone.
Instructor Mei Lan sighed and added: "Yes, this matter is not something we can control. We can only put our hope to the higher-ups'' decision..."
They immediately concluded that the best thing they could do for now was to avoid the limelight for a while until the situationpletely stabilized.
They could only hope that the higher-ups could help them clean up the big mess caused by Tang Li Xue''s Lightning Tribtions as soon as possible before they coulde back to Myriad Foxes Academy.
.....
Right at this time, the ''higher-ups'' they counted on were facing a huge headache.
Inside the vast library filled with so many neat bookshelves and a sea of books, the elegant foxdy in a ck formal Qipao dress was sitting on the sofa while reading a book.
Her body posture and every gesture were noble and graceful like from an aristocratic schr family.
She has long straight gray hair tied in a ponytail. Even her fox ears and tails were gray colored.
Currently, she rubbed her forehead to ease her headache while muttering: "This fox cub is really too restless. She just caused a small-scale war between the Human Race and Beast Race to fight over Garden City, and right now, she actually dares to undergo such spectacr Lightning Tribtions in the middle of Myriad Foxes Academy!"
"Can she remain low-profile for at least a few years?!" The Bookkeeperined in a helpless tone.
The moving image in the book she held right now was surprisingly Tang Li Xue who faced her terrifying Lightning Tribtions before.
The Bookkeeper closed the book she held as a mysterious aura gushed out from her voluptuous body.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The mysterious aura merged with the book in her grasp until the book slowly flipped open on its own.
But the scene image in the book haspletely changedpared to before.
The scene in the book about Tang Li Xue facing her Lightning Tribtion was reced by a huge meteor suddenly falling from the sky.
After the huge meteor crashed down and smashed to pieces, there was a precious treasure hidden in the huge meteor which triggered the terrifying Lightning Tribtions to descend upon the middle of Myriad Foxes Academy.
Then the precious treasure was finally sessfully secured by the staff in the Myriad Foxes Academy and waiting for further inspection.
Surprisingly, not only the scene image in the book that changed but the memories of everyone about the incident began to be altered too!
Only after a few moments, the memories of all the foxes in the Myriad Foxes Academy involved in the incident of Tang Li Xue''s Lightning Tribtions had been change ording to the scene in the book.
Yes, the Bookkeeper used her divine ability to ''Overwrite'' their past memories.
As one of the Fox n''s top leaders who represents the past, Bookkeeper has the power to govern and alter the past.
Of course, it did not mean she could easily change the past ording to her will with her power.
She could only alter everyone''s memories or tweak the past a bit within the limit allowed by Heavenly Rules.
She had not reached a Sovereign God-level yet after all.
She was only a half-God-level powerhouse at this point since she had not gotten Heaven''s Mandate yet.
The Bookkeeper closed the book again and let the book fly into one of the bookshelves on its own.
After solving the problem caused by Tang Li Xue as easily as flipping her hands, the Bookkeeper still felt unhappy because of it.lightsnovel
"A naughty kid needs to be punished." The Bookkeeper murmured with an amused smile on her charming face.
Then she waved her slender fair hand and one of the books on the bookshelves flew toward her.
The book was actually about the expedition team to the Secret Realm, and the Bookkeeper made some changes in the book before she let the book return to the bookshelves.
.....
Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, Tang Li Xue, and Silly Fox were still on their way to the location of the Secret Realm.
They did not rest at all overnight, and currently, the sky had be brighter as the sun had already slowly risen.
On their way, Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox realized that the situation outside had gotten much more chaoticpared to thest time they went to the Garden City.
It should be because the war between the Human Race and the Beast Race had gotten more fierce after the Garden City''s Beast Tide invasion incident.
At this moment, dozens of human cultivators riding on flying treasures suddenly surrounded Tang Li Xue''s group out of nowhere.
"Hehehe... Those two fairies look so juicy~! Kill their men, but don''t hurt those two fairies!" One of the human cultivators shouted while staring at Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan with a pair of lewd eyes.
"Boss, can you give them to us to y after you are der?" The other human cultivator asked while wiping their saliva.
"Don''t worry! I will give them to you after I get bored ying with them on my bedter! Hahaha~!" The rough human cultivatorughed lecherously.
Silly Foxzily muttered: "Again? Sigh... This should be the eighth time we face human robbers."
When they faced the first group of lecherous robbersst night, Silly Fox was so angry because they dared to staresciviously at his Tang Li Xue that he made the first move to massacre them all.
But after their group met the other lecherous robbers one after another, Silly Fox could not even bother to get angry anymore since his anger would consume more energy than killing those lecherous robbers.
"All right, stop wasting time and quickly defeat all of them." Instructor Mei Lan leisurely said as she did not even take those lecherous robbers seriously.
When the righteous cultivators from the 5 virtuous sects were busily fighting against the Beast Race, many scummy wandering cultivators would take the chance in this chaotic situation to rob people.
These scummy wandering cultivators were typically afraid of the strong and bullied the weak.
They were afraid of the Beast Race and righteous cultivators, so they would only target anyone who looked weaker than them.
Their current group which only consists of two males and two females was clearly the easy target in their eyes.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki were toozy to even make a move against these scummy wandering cultivators.
Their cultivation was only around the Qi Condensation Stage.
They were only equipped with the lowest-grade magic treasures.
The martial arts and spells they had practiced were only at the trash level like Fireball, Ice Needle, and so on.
Even if Tang Li Xue and her group were standing still without fighting back, those scummy wandering cultivators would not be able to hurt them at all.
But those lecherous robbers still did not understand the situation and got angry at theirzy attitude instead.
"DIE~!" All of the wandering cultivators unsheathed their weapons and flew toward Silly Fox and Teacher Li Wei.
Silly Fox raised his finger and a ck lightning of destruction condensed on the tip of his finger.
ZIZIZIZIZIZI~!
The ck lightning of destruction made the ear-grating sound.
Silly Fox pointed his finger toward those iing wandering cultivators.
Then Silly Fox shot a ray condensed from the ck lightning of destruction!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
All of the wandering cultivators exploded into blood mist as soon as the ray of ck lightning of destruction touched them.
They did not even have any time to feel any pain or scream.
Tang Li Xue shook her head, but she did not feel pity for those scummy wandering cultivators at all. On the contrary, she felt pity for everyone who had be the victim of those robbers.
Chapter 805 805: Berserk Beasts And Inner Demons!
Chapter 805 Chapter 805: Berserk Beasts And Inner Demons!
Tang Li Xue''s group continued their journey again after Silly Fox wiped out all those robbers who dared to block their way.
Traveling with Wind Riding Birds might not be as fast as flying with their own strength or riding flying treasures, but the Wind Riding Birds could fly several days straight without rest.
Apart from that, they could also save their energy and stamina to deal with any unexpected situation if something untoward happenster.
Tang Li Xue still disliked her Wind Riding Bird''s speed a bit, so she decided to ask Instructor Mei Lan: "Instructor Lan, can our Wind Riding Birds evolve to a higher level beast like False Spirit Beastter?"
Instructor Mei Lanzily replied: "Of course, they can. But I am quite sure that the cost is not something you can afford right now. It would be better for you to just buy a high-grade flying spirit treasure."
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply in greater worry.
Instructor Mei Lan''s suggestion might be usible, but Tang Li Xue was clearly not someone who could just abandon anyone after she used them.
With the help of her system, there was no doubt that Tang Li Xue''s growth would definitely be extremely rapid.
She did not need to worry about Little Loki and Yaya at all, since their growth would certainly be on par with her.
However, Wind Riding Bird waspletely different from Little Loki and Yaya...
It was not Heaven blessed spirit like Yaya or Phoenix of Pride nor one of the Four Fiend Beasts that could even surpass any mythical beasts like Little Loki.
Her white Wind Riding Bird was fated to never be able to catch up with the growth of Tang Li Xue, Yaya, Phoenix of Pride, and Little Loki from the very start.
Instructor Mei Lan''s words might not be nice to hear, but she spoke honestly after considering Tang Li Xue''s rapid growth.
No need to mention the white Wind Riding Bird, it was still a big question if Instructor Mei Lan herself, Bingbing, Silly Fox, and the others to be able to keep up with Tang Li Xue''s growth in the future.
KWEK~! CHIRP~! CHIRP~!
Tang Li Xue''s white Wind Riding Bird quacked and chirped in worry.
Tang Li Xue immediately patted its head gently while saying in aforting tone: "Don''t worry. I will not abandon you. I will find something to help you evolve to a higher-grade beastter, so be more patient, okay?!"
The white Wind Riding Bird happily nodded its head as it pped its wings more rapidly and flew faster.
A stunningly beautiful gentle smile bloomed on Tang Li Xue as she saw her Wind Riding Bird''s cheerful mood.
Little Loki whoy on Tang Li Xue''s head shook its tiny furry head in disagreement with Tang Li Xue''s meaningless effort, but it did not bother to say anything to ruin their joyous mood.
In Little Loki''s opinion, Tang Li Xue might be able to help the Wind Riding Bird once to evolve into a higher-level beast, but she definitely could not help it again and again to keep up with them.
Just like life and death werepletely inevitable, the cycle of meeting and parting was also unavoidable.
However, Tang Li Xue did not think that far yet as she secretly decided to help her Wind Riding Bird to at least evolve into False Spirit Beast in the future.
Of course, it would be much better if it could even evolve into True Spirit Beastter.
A few days passed just like that without anything happening.
Their journey could not be said to be really smooth since they kept bumping into robbers and berserk beasts dozens of times every day.
By the way, the berserk beasts were actually bloodthirsty beasts who hadpletely lost their mind after ughtering and eating so many people.
Tang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan, and the others clearly could not negotiate with those berserk beasts who hadpletely lost their mind, so they could only put them to eternal rest.
Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox frowned deeply since they really did not want to be like them, so they asked Instructor Mei Lan about how to avoid bing like them.
Instructor Mei Lan kindly replied to them: "As long as your mind is strong enough to not be affected by anything, then everything will be all right."
Teacher Li Wei added to them: "That is right. The reason for them to lose their mind is not because they kill or eat too many people, but because their mind is not strong enough, so their mind ispletely consumed by negative feelings such as bloodthirst."
"Actually, not only beasts, but even humans can also fall into this frenzied state. Many humans who fall into frenzied state also kill everyone close to them and all people they see too just like these berserk beasts."
"Human Race''s cultivators usually called it, Inner Demon." Teacher Li Wei concluded his exnation.
Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xue and said: "This is one of the reasons why I threw you to Heartless Cave before. It is for you to hone and strengthen your mind, so you will not be easily affected by negative feelings and be like them."
Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox nodded in understanding.
Tang Li Xue immediately lowered her head and blushed in shame, since she actually used her time in Heartless Cave to create a cheating skill, [Fiery Bright Eyes], instead of honestly honing and strengthening her mind just like Instructor Mei Lan wished for her to do.
After flying non-stop with their Wind Riding Birds these few days, Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei decided for them to rest in the nearby town''s inn tonight.
After all, they need to let their Wind Riding Birds rest for at least one night after rushing non-stop for a few days straight.
But before they could do it, thezy Little Loki and sleepy Yaya instantly stood up on Tang Li Xue''s head and shoulder, then stared at the certain direction behind their group in a solemn expression.
"What is wrong, you guys? Is there something interesting over there?" Tang Li Xue curiously asked Little Loki and Yaya.
BWOOOOSSHH~!
A huge flying metal boat suddenly appeared right beside them in the sky!
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Silly Fox: "???!!!"
Both Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox instantly raised their vignce to the maximum, and they were already prepared to counterattack if the huge flying metal boat dared to attack them first!
"Oh, the exploration team''s boat is already catching up with us." Teacher Li Wei muttered while nodding and smiling in satisfaction.
"Eh? What?! So, this ship is the exploration team''s boat?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes before replying: "Your cautiousness is too lowpared to your two little pets! That warship boat has stealth array, and if it really shot at you from behind, you would have already died without realizing it!"
Tang Li Xue only shrugged her shoulder, but she did not agree with Instructor Mei Lan.
The fatal blow protections of her [Sun and Moon Aegis] had finished its cooldown long ago, so she definitely would not die unless that warship boat could shoot her at least eight times in an instant.
Oh, right... She almost forgot that she also had protection from her two [Substitute Dolls], so she would only get teleported to a random location if she got killed.
Teacher Li Wei led Tang Li Xue and the others tond their Wind Riding Birds on the warship boat after the transparent golden barrier that covered the entire boat turned off.
Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox who had never seen such an impressive and sophisticated warship boat keep staring at it in awe.
"Stealth array, barrier protection array... Woah, there should be many more advanced arrays engraved inside this warship boat~! I want to see them all so badly~!" Tang Li Xue excitedly murmured.
Teacher Li Wei secretly chuckled when he heard Tang Li Xue''s excited words.
After theynded their Wind Riding Birds on the warship boat''s deck, a group of foxes in their human form immediately greeted them: "Hahaha, Young Master Li Wei~! We finally catch up with you!"
"Young Master Li Wei, please do not make us worry like this again. The situation outside is very delicate since the war between the Beast Race and the Human Race has intensifiedtely. Thankfully, nothing happens to you, Young Master Li Wei." A delicate foxdy worriedly muttered to Teacher Li Wei.
Teacher Li Weiughed while replying to them nonchntly: "All right, you all are clearly worrying too much. The Human Race''s strength in this Lightwind Continent is limited. Even if I meet with several Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, I can still easily run away from them."
When Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan were busily talking with the exploration team, Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox secretly sneaked away to look around the cool-looking metal warship boat.
Chapter 806 806: Amazing Flying Fortress!
Chapter 806 Chapter 806: Amazing Flying Fortress!
This warship boat was shaped like an ancient Chinese ship, but it was made from unknown metal which was many times more sturdy than steel.
The size of the warship boat was also truly gigantic, it might reach more than six hundred meters long.
It was even equipped with many advanced weapons such as Spirit Cannons, Killing Formations, and so on.
In Tang Li Xue''s opinion, this warship boat really worth being called a powerful flying fortress.
She felt very embarrassed when shepared her humble dream of creating a flying sports car with this advanced warship boat.
Her flying sports car in her dream would only look like a toypared to this warship boat.
Well, it was not exaggerating at all since even the defense of Garden City could only be called child''s ypared to this cool-looking advanced warship boat.
If this warship boat had been used to attack Garden City, Garden City should have fallen in less than ten minutes.
If this warship boat had been used to fight against White Lion King''s Beast Tide, it could easily tten the entire Beast Tide along with four False Spirit Beasts in less than a dozen minutes.
Even Tang Li Xue could not understand why their Fox n had not used this kind of warship boat to conquer the entire Lightwind Continent.
If Instructor Mei Lan knew what Tang Li Xue thought, she would roll her eyes disdainfully and say: ''Do you really think a remote barren continent like this Lightwind Continent is worth for us to conquer?!''
Right at this time, the exploration team did not bother to care about fox cubs like Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox as they discussed something with Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan, so Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox took this chance to explore the interior of the warship boat.
After they pushed open the metal door and stepped inside the warship boat, there was a long corridor behind the metal door.
On the right and left sides of the corridor, there were so many cabin doors. There might be hundreds of cabin rooms, but Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox did not bother to check any cabin rooms.
Tang Li Xue''s objective was to explore the bridge control room and engine room to satisfy her curiosity.
Err... No, it should be called an effort to increase her insight and knowledge instead.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in satisfaction when she thought of this excuse. She immediately decided to say this excuse if Instructor Mei Lan or Teacher Li Wei scolded herter.
However, it was really not easy for Tang Li Xue and her group such as Silly Fox, Yaya, and Little Loki to find the bridge control room and engine room because the size of this warship boat''s interior was truly enormous, maybe it was even much bigger than how it was seen from outside.
Tang Li Xue was quite sure that they should have applied space inscription technology to create this warship boat''s interior.
after exploring for fifteen minutes or so, Tang Li Xue only managed to find the restaurant, kitchen, library, lounge, hot spring bathroom, tavern, meeting room, party area, medical area, training area, trading area, and so on.
The facilities were extremelyplete and luxurious which almost blinded the eyes of the pauper foxes like Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox.
But Tang Li Xue became more and more skeptical as she still failed to find the bridge control room and engine room after wandering for more than an hour.
"Sigh, I see... Both the bridge control room and engine room should be concealed by some formations, so anyone unrted cannot find them. It really makes sense since those two rooms should be the most crucial parts of this warship boat." Tang Li Xue concluded in great disappointment.
She really wanted to see what kinds of sophisticated arrays they used to create this warship boat, what kind of energy source they used, and how they drove this warship boat...
But it seemed her wishes could only remain unfulfilled at this point.
"No, I can still ask for Teacher Li Wei for help~! He looks like to has quite high authority here since those foxes from the exploration team look so polite and respectful to him." Tang Li Xue murmured as her topaz blue eyes shone in excitement again.
Tang Li Xue secretly upgraded her future dream a little bit from creating a flying sports car to building a Dreadnought ss spaceship she had seen in one of the sci-fi fantasy movies.
Just when Tang Li Xue thought about how could she find Teacher Li Wei, Instructor Mei Lan actually called her and Silly Fox first through theirmunication talisman.
Tang Li Xue took out hermunication talisman from her space pouch and quickly picked up the call from Instructor Mei Lan: "Yes, Instructor Lan?"
"Come here to meet us in the tavern." Instructor Mei Lan hung up their connection after she only said one sentence.
Tang Li Xue dragged the curious Silly Fox with her and immediately headed to the tavern together to meet with Instructor Mei Lan.
Different from any tavern out there that looked rustic, the tavern in this warship boat looked like a high-end luxurious bar with furniture and tea sets made from precious material.
When Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox entered the tavern to meet Instructor Mei Lan, the foxes from the exploration team and Teacher Li Wei were also there.
Everyone was drinking and eating snacks while talking with each other happily.
"Hey, ourst expedition was twelve years ago, and we only went to Treasure Ind. I hope we can find many more precious treasures this time." The middle-aged man with ck fox ears and tails said while drinking his wine.
"Of course, there would be many more precious treasures this time! We are going to explore the fallen ancient sect''s secret space after all!" The delicate fox girl replied after sipping her tea.
"Instructor Lan, Teacher Li..." Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox felt embarrassed when they barged into the tavern, but they only knew Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei among so many foxes in the crowded tavern.
"Little Lass and... Little Boy,e here quick~! I will introduce the exploration team to you two!" Teacher Li Wei waved his hand to call Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox.
"Oh? Are these two your students, Young Master Li Wei?" The delicate fox girl asked in a teasing tone.
Teacher Li Wei shook his head and exined: "Only the beautifulss is my inscriptionist student, but both of them are Dummy... Cough, I meanLan''er students."
Teacher Li Wei almost called Instructor Mei Lan by Dummy Lan as always, but he immediately fixed it when he sensed a faint murderous intentioning from behind him.
Instructor Mei Lan showed her usual gentle beautiful smile and introduced to all of the exploration team: "The female one is Tang Li Xue, we usually call her Little Xue, and the male one is... Err, let''s just call him Silly Fox."
Silly Fox instantly deted as he muttered in aint tone: "Instructor Lan, my name is Hei Yinghao. How could you forget the name of your most beloved student?!"
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and replied: ''If you are my most beloved student, I should not forget your name."
All of the exploration team burst intoughter when they heard the funny conversation between teacher and student.
Then Teacher Li Wei began to introduce the exploration team one by one to Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox.
"The handsome middle-aged man over there is the head of this exploration team, Zhu Jun."
The delicate beautifuldy beside him is his daughter, Zhu Zhenhua."
"The stupid-looking man sitting behind her is his husband, Qin Sheng."
The chubby young man with long red hair, red fox ears, and tails hastily corrected: "Young Master Li Wei, I am clearly not looking stupid at all. This is called having an ideal meaty physique!"
There were more than fifty foxes in the exploration team, but Teacher Li Wei only introduced the foxes who held higher authority in the exploration team to Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox.
Teacher Li Wei did not hope for Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox to immediately have close ties with the exploration team before they entered the Secret Realm, but at least he did not want Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox to offend the important foxes from the exploration team because of their ignorance.
"Oh, right... I almost forgot. Can you give your expedition ticket to us now? I need to check them first before we reach the location of the Secret Realm." The head of the exploration team, Zhu Jun, politely asked them.
"No problem." Instructor Mei Lan smiled while nodding at Zhu Jun.
She took out the ck metal badge from her space pouch and gave it to Zhu Jun without any hesitation.
After Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox saw that, they also took out their ck metal badge from their space pouch.
Silly Fox immediately found his expedition ticket and gave it to Zhu Jun too, Tang Li Xue was still looking at her own expedition ticket in her space pouch.
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
After a few minutes, cold sweat began to pour out from her forehead, but she still failed to find her expedition ticket.
Chapter 807 807: Arrived At The Secret Realm’s Location!
Chapter 807 Chapter 807: Arrived At The Secret Realm''s Location!
Tang Li Xue rummaged through her space pouch several times, but she still failed to find her expedition ticket.
''No way, right?! It should be impossible for me to make such a crucial blunder like forgetting to bring my expedition ticket~! I should have already stored it in my space pouch and never taken it out at all after I got it!'' Tang Li Xue screamed in panic inside her heart.
At first, Tang Li Xue was 100% about it.
However, she immediately felt unsure about it after a while as her memories about that matter suddenly became very blurry, and she could no longer remember clearly where she had put her expedition ticket before.
"I... I am really sorry... It seems I lost it..." Tang Li Xue lowered her head while murmuring in a tone filled with helplessness and regret.
Instructor Mei Lan''s expression became darker after she heard Tang Li Xue''s words, and she really wanted to break open Tang Li Xue''s brain so badly to see its content.
Instructor Mei Lan found it very hard to ept how the heck Tang Li Xue could even forget about something that important?!
"This..." Even Zhu Jun and the other exploration team did not know what to say anymore.
On one side, Tang Li Xue was Teacher Li Wei''s inscriptionist student, so they clearly could not just kick her back to Myriad Foxes Academy just like that.
On the other side, the expedition ticket has a very important role ording to the rules set by Fox n''s higher-ups.
There were many good reasons why the expedition ticket was given instead of just registering their name to the exploration team.
But the most important reason was to prevent cheating behavior such as the other foxes disguising themselves as the guests and taking over the quota to explore together with the exploration team.
This has already happened many times in the past.
Of course, some of them were forcibly reced, but many of them were reced voluntarily.
Well, it meant the exploration guests sold their quota for a lot of credits.
Right now, the exploration team did not dare to make any rash decision because if Tang Li Xue sold her exploration ticket to someone but still managed to participate in the expedition to Secret Realm, it was their exploration team who would be questioned by the Fox n''s higher-upster.
When the exploration team was still indecisive, Teacher Li Wei took this time to convince them: "I am sorry everyone, my student is always so clumsy and forgetful. But I can guarantee that she is not a dishonest fox."
"I will be her guarantor. If any troubles arise about this matter, you can just push all of the responsibility to me." Teacher Li Wei said in a reassuring tone.
Tang Li Xue stared at Teacher Li Wei with a pair of tearful eyes filled with gratitude.
She really wanted to hug Teacher Li Wei''s thigh and thank him so badly... Okay, it would be too shameful to do it in front of so many foxes, so she decided to not do it.
Zhu Jun and the other exploration team sighed in relief after they heard Teacher Li Wei''s words.
However, Zhu Jun''s daughter, Zhu Zhenhua, had already thought of a solution to break their embarrassing situation, so she immediately told her suggestion: "Of course, we absolutely trust, Young Master Li Wei and his little student, but I think we still need to do something so we can exin it to higher-upster."
"That Little Lass can explore the Secret Realm with uster, but we will confiscate all of her gains after the Secret Realm''s exploration is over."
"After we return to Myriad Foxes Academy, this Little Lass can just find her exploration ticket at her home and give it to us to redeem back all of her gains in the Secret Realm. How about it?" Zhu Zhenhua asked with a polite smile on her face.
Teacher Li Wei''s eyes brightened slightly when he heard Zhu Zhenhua''s suggestion, and he immediately praised: "Good idea~! Miss Zhu Zhenhua is truly smart. I really admire you."
Zhu Jun, Zhu Zhenhua, and the other exploration teamughed in relief.
The tense and embarrassing situation was solved just like that, and they returned to the previous joyous mood.
Tang Li Xue who sat on the seat behind Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei secretly turned pale in worry.
Zhu Zhenhua''s suggestion might be really good, but the problem was that Tang Li Xue still could not remember where she put her exploration ticket until now!
She was also not sure if she could find the exploration ticket in her home after she went back to Myriad Foxes Academyter.
''If I still cannot find the exploration ticket after we return to Myriad Foxes Academyter, does it mean I will never be able to redeem all of my gains in Secret Realm?! Damn it~! What is the difference between that and robbing me?!'' Tang Li Xue unhappily thought.
The flying warship silently entered stealth mode once again after Teacher Li Wei, Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue, and Silly Fox were aboard the flying warship.
The flying warship was covered with a transparent protective formation and the surface turned invisible.
In the stealth mode, the flying warship waspletely silent and undetectable even by Nascent Soul Stage''s powerful divine sense.
The flying warship continued the journey with speed many times surpassing the sound speed.
All of the cultivators or beasts were usually flying at a height of around 3,000-10,000 meters above the ground, but the flying warship was flying around 15,000 meters above the ground, so it would never identally bump into anyone.
No one even realized when such a gigantic flying warship flew and passed right above their head.
If the flying warship did not have the perfect stealth mode, it might already have created manyrgemotions just by flying around above the huge human cities.
Tang Li Xue hadpletely lost her mood to explore the flying warship in these few days because of the matter of losing her expedition ticket.
All of the cabin rooms in the flying warship were extremely luxurious, and the scenery outside the cabin room''s windows was really magnificent, but Tang Li Xue did not even have a mood to enjoy them.
She could not even sleep peacefully these days because of her worries.
KNOCK~! KNOCK~! KNOCK~!
Tang Li Xuezily opened the door of her cabin room only to see Silly Fox.
"I already said that I do not want to explore this flying warship..." Tang Li Xue angrily said to Silly Fox.
In these few days, Silly Fox kept asking her to apany him to look around the flying warship, but she had already rejected him many times.
"No, Little Xue. This time Ie is not because of that. Instructor Mei Lan let me convey it to you to prepare to go out soon~! We will arrive at the Secret Realm''s location soon!" Silly Fox happily informed Tang Li Xue.
"What?! We have already arrived?! So soon?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
If they only rode the Wind Riding Bird, it might take them several times longer to reach the Secret Realm''s location.
Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in admiration.
She had to admit this flying warship was truly wonderful. It was not only huge and luxurious, but it was also extremely fast and powerful.
Tang Li Xue woke up the sleeping Yaya and Little Loki, then brought them out of the flying warship along with Silly Fox.
Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and all of the exploration team had already stood at the flying warship''s deck while carefully examining the scenery in front of them.
The flying warship''s speed decreased rapidly as it kept flying lower and lower.
Tang Li Xue secretly admired the beautiful green valley stretched out below the flying warship.
Their team jumped down from the flying warship when it hovered dozens of meters above the ground.
They walked further until they reached the gorgeous gorges.
The gorgeous gorges were filled with greenery. There was a high waterfall and a clear fast-flowing river under the waterfall.
While Tang Li Xue admired the beautiful natural scenery, the exploration team began to set up many detection devices in the gorgeous gorges under Qin Sheng''s leadership.
These detection devices were to gauge the space fluctuation, so they could find the exact location of the Secret Realm''s entrance.
Meanwhile, Teacher Li Wei unfurled the ancient map which illustrated the Secret Realm''s location, and examined it carefully with Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua.
Tang Li Xue and Silly Fox also took a peek at the ancient map curiously from behind Teacher Li Wei.
There were unknown words and codes written in the ancientnguage on the ancient map.
Tang Li Xue did not even have any idea what was written on that ancient map.
*Ding~!
[Do you want toprehend Ancient Language and Codes with a cost of 30 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
Chapter 808 808: Instructor Mei Lan’s Warning!
Chapter 808 Chapter 808: Instructor Mei Lan''s Warning!
*Ding~!
[Do you want toprehend Ancient Language and Codes with a cost of 30 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
''System~?! So, you are still alive?! I thought you were already dead! Cough... Err, no... I mean you can actually help meprehend the Ancient Language and Codes on the ancient map?!'' Tang Li Xue thought in surprise.
Tang Li Xue suddenly recalled that the System had already helped her decode the secret message in the Asura Demon Sect before, so it should not be strange that her System could also help herprehend the Ancient Language and Codes on the ancient map.
''Damn, it only cost 30 Deity Coins?! It is so cheap! Teacher Li Wei many months of hard work to crack the Ancient Language and Codes on the ancient map is only worth 30 Deity Coins! It is really not worth it at all!'' Tang Li Xue secretlymented for Teacher Li Wei.
Just when Tang Li Xue was hesitating if she should spend 30 Deity Coins or not toprehend the Ancient Language and Codes on the ancient map...
"Nyaaao~!"
Little Loki who yed around with Yaya just now suddenly ran toward Tang Li Xue and bit her skirt.
"What is wrong, Little Loki? Do you want to take pee-pee? Oh, I know... You should be hungry, right?" Tang Li Xue asked doubtfully after she saw Little Loki''s strange behavior.
Little Loki rolled its eyes unhappily at Tang Li Xue''s inquiries.
It was Taotie''s cub, the leader of the majestic four Evil Fiend Beasts!
Do you really think it ever takes pee-pee like the other normal beasts?!
Well, the hungry part was not wrong since Little Loki always felt hungry all the time, but that was not what it wanted to say right now!
"Nyaa Meow Mew Nyaw Nyeow~!" (I smell so many delicious things hidden over there~!)
Little Loki meowed cutely while pointing its small paw in a certain direction deeper inside the gorges.
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and asked Little Loki using her [Lock-On Telepathy] so no one could hear what they were talking about: "You say so many delicious things hidden in that direction? Since all of them are hidden, can you open the way to enter there?"
Little Loki put on its smug expression and patted its small furry chest proudly as if it was saying ''Easy peasy, just leave it to me''.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized that Little Loki should be able to sense the Secret Realm''s entrance using its treasure detection ability, and it could even forcefully open the Secret Realm''s entrance using its [Heaven''s Devour].
Tang Li Xue''s cherry pink lips twitched slightly as she thought: ''Well, I can spend some of my Deity Coins to decode the ancient map, while Little Loki can detect the Secret Realm''s entrance and open it with its ability. Good guy, does it mean I can justplete this exploration alone without anyone''s help?!''
Tang Li Xue looked around to see that the exploration team was working so hard to find the trace of space fluctuation, so they could lock the exact location of the Secret Realm''s entrance.
She also saw that Teacher Li Wei, Zhu Jun, and Zhu Zhenhua had already taken out a big wooden table and sat on the jade stone seats, then they flipped several thick books and sometimes argued with each other as they tried to decode thest part of code written in Ancient Language on the treasure map.
''Err, should I help them out, so we can enter the Secret Realm faster? But would they be ashamed to death if they knew that a young junior like me couldplete all their work alone?'' Tang Li Xue thought while pinching her smooth chin.
After pondering carefully for a few moments, Tang Li Xue shook her head to deny that idea.
It would be all right to show her true abilities in front of her close acquaintances such as Silly Fox, Teacher Li Wei, and Instructor Mei Lan, but she did not want... or rather she did not dare to show her true abilities tantly in front of so many unknown people... or foxes like this exploration team.
But the exploration team clearly progressed at a snail-crawling pace, and it might take her a few days to a few weeks to lock the Secret Realm''s entrance, not to mention that they also need to find a way to open itter.
Tang Li Xue definitely did not want to waste so much of her precious time waiting here, so she decided to tell Instructor Mei Lan about it secretly.
As for why Tang Li Xue did not tell the Silly Fox or Teacher Li Wei instead... Silly Fox clearly could not be relied on other than the matter of fighting, whereas Teacher Li Wei''s mysterious background made Tang Li Xue unable to fully trust him yet.
Instructor Mei Lan currently helped the exploration team set up their space fluctuation detection devices.
Tang Li Xue approached Instructor Mei Lan and made a random excuse to talk to her: "Instructor Lan, can you apany me for a while? I need to take a pee-pee!"
Little Loki who was sitting on Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder almost slipped and fell down when it heard Tang Li Xue''sme excuse.
Even the male foxes in the exploration team were blushing while lowering their head after they identally heard Tang Li Xue''s words.
Instructor Mei Lan red unhappily at Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue only stared back innocently at her.
Then Instructor Mei Lan sighed and went with Tang Li Xue while asking using telepathy: "Just say what you want to do?! If you dare to say any more nonsense I will make sure you regret it right now."
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered slightly in fright after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s threat.
She could only honestly tell everything to Instructor Mei Lan, except for the part that she couldprehend the Ancient Language and Codes on the ancient map with the help of her System.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned with a serious expression as she began to ponder carefully.
Instructor Mei Lan exined to Tang Li Xue and let her make her own decision: "Revealing that you can read the Ancient Language and Codes on the ancient map will only attract unwanted attention, so would be better for you to pretend not to know it unless you can exin where you learned it from."
"Don''t worry. Sissy Wei already spends so much time decoding the Ancient Language, so it should not take a long time for him topletelyprehend them."
"I can secretly help the exploration team by pointing out the location of the Secret Realm''s entrance, but you should restrain your pet, so it would not forcefully open the Secret Realm''s entrance!"
"We still do not know what kind of danger would be triggered as the consequence of forcefully opening it, so it would be better for us to be more careful."
"Not to mention your pet''s ability to forcefully open the secret realm''s entrance would attract the attention of the exploration team, so don''t cry to me if they ask the origin of your pet or try to borrow your petter!" Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue with telepathy.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned a bit pale after she heard Instructor Mei Lan''s detailed exnation and warning.
She nodded at Instructor Mei Lan with a solemn expression signaling that she understood what she needed to do.
Instructor Mei Lan patted Tang Li Xue''s shoulder while smiling satisfyingly at her and saying: "The tall tree will attract violent wind. So, it would be best to always keep low-key unless you have a powerful background or enough strength."
Tang Li Xue clearly did not have both of them, so if she was attracting the attention of powerful ones and being targeted by them, she could only be beaten passively.
Of course, both Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei have powerful backgrounds, but it was definitely impossible for them to protect Tang Li Xue anytime anywhere like her parents.
Moreover, it was still questionable whether the powerful foxes behind Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei would always help them protect Tang Li Xue.
Take Instructor Mei Lan''s parents for example, they did not have any close rtionship with Tang Li Xue, so they might not have wanted to help Tang Li Xue anymore after they helped her out once or twice.
In short, Instructor Mei Lan wanted to teach Tang Li Xue to be more aware of her situation and be more careful at all times.
After that, Tang Li Xue stopped paying attention to the exploration team''s work.
She also warned Little Loki to never do any rash action for now.
Little Loki deted and pouted cutely in disappointment, but it still decided to obediently follow Tang Li Xue''s advice.
Tang Li Xue caressed Little Loki''s tiny furry head in satisfaction and fed it a lot of beast cores she bought with credits before she went out of the Myriad Foxes Academy.
After happily eating the beast cores given by Tang Li Xue, Little Loki brought Yaya to y around the gorges again.
Tang Li Xue did not bother them and summoned out her perfect copy instead, then she and her perfect copy began to practice the Profound Law of Heat and Cold from [Yin And Yang Chaotic Form] together.
Chapter 809 809: Tang Li Xue’s Amazing Discovery!
Chapter 809 Chapter 809: Tang Li Xue''s Amazing Discovery!
A few days had passed in the blink of an eye.
The exploration team had already managed to lock the exact location of the Secret Realm''s entrance in the gorges, but they still needed to find the exact way to open it.
Zhu Jun might look like a sloppy handsome middle-aged man, but he was actually an extremely powerful True Spirit Beast.
Zhu Jun definitely had more than enough strength to forcefully open the entrance to enter the Secret Realm, but he did not dare to do it rashly since the entire Secret Realm might copse instead if he did it that way.
Normally, the Secret Realm or Space needed careful maintenance once in a while by the formation master since the sustaining formations might wear off bit by bit over time, but this fallen Ancient Sect''s Secret Realm had not received any maintenance for who knows how long.
Its current condition was like a fragile and dpidated treasure warehouse that could fall apart anytime, and once this treasure warehousepletely copsed, then it meant all of the treasures inside it would be buried forever along with the copsed Secret Realm.
At this time, Instructor Mei Lan was still busily helping the exploration team by tinkering with the space device, while Teacher Li Wei was working hard sleeplessly with Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua to crack the codes written in Ancient Language on the ancient map.
The bored Little Loki always wanted to convince Tang Li Xue to let it secretly enter the Secret Realm first, but Tang Li Xue rejected its idea every time.
They still did not know anything about the Secret Realm, so Little Loki might face life-threatening danger if it entered the Secret Realm alone.
But it would bepletely different if they entered with a powerful True Spirit Beast like Zhu Jun.
Not to mention, Tang Li Xue''s hunch said that there should be more than one powerful True Spirit Beast other than Zhu Jun in the exploration team, but Tang Li Xue still did not have any idea who it was.
Well, the Fox n was well-known for their cunning mind and caution, so it was not strange that the exploration team would have ns A, B, C, D, and so on to face any kind of danger.
They were the veteran in the matter of exploration after all, so they should have already faced many dangers in their previous exploration missions.
So, Tang Li Xue decided that her team must enter the Secret Realm together with the exploration team no matter what!
The bored Little Loki could only pout angrily at Tang Li Xue''s firm decision, so it took Little Yaya to roam around the gorges instead to relieve its boredom while looking for some snacks too.
In these few days, Tang Li Xue did notze around at all. On the contrary, she was practicing diligently without sleep with her perfect copy.
Her perfect copy was always practicing the Profound Law of Heat and Cold from [Yin And Yang Chaotic Form] all the time to quickly brush the proficiency to reach perfection as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was busily practicing many various things such as her martial arts, skills, divine abilities, making some talismans, engraving arrays on the nk treasures, and so on.
Yes, she had already begun to practice the upgraded version of her previous four sword arts, the more powerful sword techniques written in the [Heavenly Sword Immortal''s manual], [Heaven Sword Techniques].
Unfortunately, it might take some time for Tang Li Xue to be able to use it in a real battle since the difficulty of [Heaven Sword Techniques] was terrifyingly much higherpared to the previous four sword arts.
However, it made sense since the previous four sword arts were only the basic skills created by Heavenly Sword Immortal as the foundation to learn his [Heaven Sword Techniques] in the future, while Tang Li Xue very rarely practiced the previous four sword arts until now.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only try to increase her time to practice the four sword arts and [Heaven Sword Techniques] from now on if she wanted to be able to use [Heaven Sword Techniques] in the real battle soon.
Other than that, Tang Li Xue also identally made another amazing discovery!
She suddenly realized another horrible potential of her [Energy Maniption]!
Tang Li Xue currently stared at a white sword created from the [Energy Maniption] that was hovering in front of her with a solemn expression.
But the current white sword in front of her waspletely different from the usual white sword created with her [Energy Maniption]. because it had [Sharp] rune, [Sturdy] rune, and [Energy Channeling] rune engraved on its surface to form oneplete array!
"To think I can also create a magic weapon using [Energy Maniption]..." Tang Li Xue muttered in a disbelief tone.
All this time, She only relied on the power ofpression to increase the strength of the weapons she created with her [Energy Maniption], buttely, she also imbued it with the power of the Profound Law of Heat and me of Pride to further increase the power such as the heavy me hammer.
She imagined if She could use this form...
[Energy Maniption] + [Energy Compression] + [The Power of Arrays] + [Profound Laws] + [me of Pride]
Then the weapon she created would definitely be powerful beyond anyone''s imagination!
No... If Yaya could alsoprehend the Profound Laws of Wind and Lightning in the future, and she entered [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya, then added Yaya''s Profound Laws of Wind and Lightning into the form...
Not to mention that she was currently only able to create magic weapons with oneplete array, what if she could create spirit weapons with over nineplete arrayster?!
What if she could create supreme treasures with over one hundredplete arrays in the future?!
Plus the power of her futureplete domain, and improved [Sharp Edge Power]...
Hiss, Tang Li Xue did not even dare to imagine it even further.
Tang Li Xue''s saliva almost flowed out without her realizing it when she imagined that she could create a Dreadnought ss spaceship using her [Energy Maniption] with only a single thought.
When Tang Li Xue was drowned in her daydreaming, an excited shout suddenly woke her up.
"SUCCESS~! Hahahahaha~!"
"We finally sessfully decode the way to open the Secret Realm~!"
The excited sounds were actually from Teacher Li Wei, Zhu Jun, and Zhu Zhenhua.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she overheard their voices as she thought: ''It took you all long enough for that! Thankfully, they finally managed to decode the way to open the Secret Realm before Little Lokipletely ran out of patience.''
Tang Li Xue already noticed that Little Loki was getting more and more restlesstely. If they still could not find the way to enter the Secret Realm in these few more days, Little Loki might sneak into the Secret Realm alone.
Tang Li Xue transformed the white magic sword in front of her back into energy as she stood up and began to look for Little Loki and Yaya who were still roaming around the gorges.
Through their mind connection, it did not take long for Tang Li Xue to find Little Loki and Yaya, then bring them back to get together with the exploration team.
Teacher Li Wei, Zhu Jun, and Zhu Zhenhua rushed deeper toward the gorges.
After they reached the location of the Secret Realm''s entrance near the waterfall, they began to set some formations to open the Secret Realm''s entrance.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched: ''Tsk~! I thought we could finally enter the Secret Realm right now, but it seems it would still take some time to open the Secret Realm''s entrance.''
The sun had almost set, and the sky might turn dark soon.
When Instructor Mei Lan and the other exploration team were excitedly watching how Teacher Li Wei, Zhu Jun, and Zhu Zhenhua set the formations to open the Secret Realm''s entrance, Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and Yaya to eat until they were full and went to sleep earlier tonight.
They might need to face unknown dangers when they enter the Secret Realm, so Tang Li Xue thought it would be better for them to rest as much as possible tonight.
When the morning sun slowly rose from the east, Instructor Mei Lan hastily woke up the sleeping Tang Li Xue since the entrance of the Secret Realm finally opened sessfully, and the exploration team had already prepared to enter the Secret Realm together.
Tang Li Xue quickly woke up the sleeping Little Loki and Yaya before she used[Twin Moons] divine ability to un-summon her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue was afraid that the exploration team wouldinter if she brought her perfect copy to enter the Secret Realm since it meant the exploration team might need to protect one more fox, so Tang Li Xue thought that it would be better if she summoned out her perfect copyter if needed.
Chapter 810 810: Entering The Secret Realm!
Chapter 810 Chapter 810: Entering The Secret Realm!
Tang Li Xue followed Instructor Mei Lan closely from behind as they headed to the location of the Secret Realm''s entrance together.
Yaya and Little Loki who were usually lookzy and sleepy also showed excited looks as they finally able to enter the Secret Realm.
Especially Little Loki, because it could ''smell'' so many delicious things inside the Secret Realm, it was truly a great torture to restrain itself to not entering the Secret Realm in these few days.
It was like putting so many delicious foods in front of an extremely hungry person, just the mouth-watering fragrance was more than enough to make that person drool hard, but he was not allowed to touch or eat those delicious foods for a few days.
Moreover, Little Loki was not a person but a Taotie cub, the Evil Fiend Beast symbolized as the most gluttonous creature.
Tang Li Xue patted Yaya and Little Loki''s tiny heads who were sitting on her shoulder and the top of her head while warning them with telepathy: "You two should not be too reckless inside that Secret Realm, okay? We still do not know anything about that Secret Realm, so it would be better for us to let those experts from the exploration team open the way for us first. Do you two get it?"
"Yaaa~!" (Understood~!)
"Nyaw Meoow~!" (I know~!)
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she heard the obedient reply from Yaya and Little Loki.
The Space Realm''s entrance had already been opened a few hours ago, but Teacher Li Wei, Zhu Jun, and Zhu Zhenhua still spent a few more hours stabilizing it, so it would not copse easily.
Tang Li Xue saw a ten-meter grey circle had appeared beside the 6th waterfall in the gorgeous green gorges.
Eight different colored pearls were floating around the Space Realm''s entrance and slowly rotating counter-clockwise. These eight different colored pearls should be the treasures used by them to stabilize the Secret Realm''s entrance space.
The exploration team began to distribute some kind of the devices to Tang Li Xue and Instructor Mei Lan, then exined to them how to use those devices.
The first device was the button-like tracker, so they could search and find them easily if they somehow got separated from the teamter.
The second device was thepass with a holographic screen. It could be used to track the first device, and the location of everyone who held the button-like tracker would be shown on the holographic screen.
The third device was the re bomb. Once it was released, it would radiate blinding light and shoot upward.
The function might be simr to the re gun in Tang Li Xue''s previous life, but the re bomb could actually also be used like a stun grenade to temporarily incapacitate nearby opponents, so they could use that chance to run away from any dangerous opponents.
They also received several advanced amulets to protect themselves.
[Vajra Protection Amulet] could protect them from the powerful attack at the False Spirit Beast Level.
[Spirit Shattering Lightning Amulet] was used to attack opponents, and it had a destructive power equal to the False Spirit Beast Level.
[Wind Rush Amulet] was used to increase movement speed many times for a set amount of duration.
As for [Amulet of Teleportation], Tang Li Xue had already gotten this amulet from Teacher Li Wei before, but it ended up being eaten by Little Loki which granted Little Loki its current [Instant Teleportation] skill.
[Amulet of Teleportation] could be used to teleport to somewhere nearby in an instant, but unfortunately, the teleportation distance was quite limited.
However, if they immediately used [Wind Rush Amulet] to momentarily increase their speed many times to run away after they used [Amulet of Teleportation], they could run away easily from almost any dangers or opponents.
Little Loki drooled when it saw the several amulets in Tang Li Xue''s grasp, so Tang Li Xue quickly put away those several amulets into her space pouch before Little Loki snatched them and ate them.
Little Loki might be able to obtain some new abilities after it consumed those several amulets, but Tang Li Xue decided not to let Little Loki eat them at least not until their Secret Realm''s exploration was over.
These amulets were Tang Li Xue''s life-saving treasures after all.
Even though Tang Li Xue already had [Sun and Moon Aegis]''s lethal blow protections, but having more life-saving treasures would reassure her more.
Little Loki also understood thatpletely, so it did not bother to whine orin to Tang Li Xue.
Anyway, it could eat a lot of delicious foods once it entered the Secret Realm.
"All right, is everyone ready?" Zhu Jun shouted out loud to ask everyone.
Everyone did not answer, but only nodded their head to Zhu Jun.
This was the tacit understanding among the exploration team. They would only answer if they were not ready yet.
"Okay, let''s arrange the formation and enter the Secret Realm~!" Zhu Jun instructed calmly.
Zhu Jun and Teacher Li Wei were in the forefront position while Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue were in the middle.
Zhu Zhenhua was ced in the rearmost position.
Meanwhile, Qin Sheng and the other ten exploration team members did not enter the Secret Realm with their group, since their task was to protect the Secret Realm''s entrance.
Well, it would be really bad if something happened to the Secret Realm''s entrance, and they might be trapped forever in the Secret Realm.
From this, Tang Li Xue immediately concluded that the trio of Zhu Jun, Zhu Zhenhua, and Qin Sheng should be at the True Spirit Beast level since their tasks were the most crucialpared to the others.
No wonder Teacher Li Wei only introduced those three from the exploration team to Tang Li Xue before, so Tang Li Xue would not do something careless to offend them.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her turbulent mood as she proceeded to enter the Secret Realm''s entrance with the exploration team in a neat formation.
However, when their team entered step into the Secret Realm''s entrance, the space tunnel immediately twisted and became unstable.
Just like what they expected before, the Secret Realm''s space formations had never received any maintenance for who knew how long.
Even though the exploration team had already used some means to stabilize it, but it was clearly far from enough.
It was as if they were walking on a fragile old bridge that never received any maintenance or repair for hundreds of years to cross the deep chasm.
Tang Li Xue felt dizzy and nauseous, but she gritted her pearl-
white teeth to resist it.
Tang Li Xue worriedly took a nce at Little Loki and Yaya to look at their condition.
Little Loki looked normal as if it did not feel anything at all, but Yaya''s small face turned pale and dizzy.
It might be because Little Loki had mastered [Instant Teleportation] skill, so it already got used to this kind of environment, so it did not feel anything.
But Tang Li Xue still decided to put the two of them into the space in her Dantian, so they would not feel ufortable.
She put Yaya in the Windy Mountain area, while Little Loki in the Stormy Clouds area.
Both Little Loki and Yaya had already told Tang Li Xue that they did not like to enter System''s pet space since it was dark andpletely isted from the outside world.
Meanwhile, the mid-rank space pouch was too stuffy, and it was not powerful enough to contain Loki and Yaya, so Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice other than still putting Little Loki and Yaya into System''s pet space, but thankfully, they already have a better choice right now.
Of course, System''s pet space was still a much better choice for them to enter the cultivation state or recover themselves since they would consume the spiritual energy in Tang Li Xue''s Dantian instead if they did it in that area.
"You two just sit calmly inside there for a while, okay? I will take you out after we enter the Secret Realm." Tang Li Xue whispered to Yaya and Little Loki in aforting tone.
Yaya and Little Loki immediately replied that they did not mind it at all.
"The space tunnel distortion is much worse than we have expected. Let''s increase our pace, so we can enter the Secret Realm faster." Zhu Jun shouted to everyone in a solemn tone.
Tang Li Xue still resisted the dizziness and nausea as she increased her speed to keep up with the others.
Tang Li Xue felt as if they were walking on the wavy and twisted rope. It was very confusing and made everyone extremely ufortable.
The situation only got worse as they proceeded further.
Tang Li Xue''s condition was actually much better than the other weaker members of the exploration team since she had her two extremely powerful bloodlines and [Sun And Moon Aegis] which increased her resistance several times.
After ten minutes or so, they finally saw the light at the end of the distorted space tunnel.
"Not good~! Be careful everyone..." Teacher Li Wei and Zhu Jun suddenly eximed when they sensed something wrong with the light.
Unfortunately, it was already a bit toote.
The light seemed to zoom toward them at the breakneck speed instead!
Before Tang Li Xue and the others could react or do something, they felt as if their head had been hit heavily by a powerful shockwave, and their consciousness became blurry.
Chapter 811 811: Bad News!
Chapter 811 Chapter 811: Bad News!
.....
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The Secret Realm''s entrance suddenly shook greatly and became extremely unstable as if it could copse anytime!
"Not good~!" Qin Sheng shouted with a solemn expression.
He immediately unleashed his more than one-hundred-meter-tall Spirit Avatar!
Qin Sheng''s Spirit Avatar was an enormous four-tail fox d in crimson me.
Qin Sheng hastily used his Spirit Avatar to stabilize the Secret Realm''s entrance!
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
Eight different colored pearls that were floating around the Space Realm''s entrance began to be filled with thin cracks as if they could not hold on anymore.
The other exploration team had already taken some tools from their space pouch and quickly set up those tools at the unstable Secret Realm''s entrance.
They also took out several sets of eight different colored pearls and threw them toward the unstable Secret Realm''s entrance.
After a few breaths of time, the Secret Realm''s entrance stopped shaking violently and gradually calmed down.
The exploration team sighed in relief, but Qin Sheng''s expression did not soften at all. On the contrary, his expression became even more stern in worry.
"Deputy Chief Qin... Luckily, you are here to hold the Secret Realm''s entrance for a while just now. If not, the entire entrance might have already copsed by that ident right now." One of the exploration team''s members praised Qin Sheng.
But Qin Sheng shook his head and replied in a worried tone: "That was not an ident."
"Eh, what?" The exploration team asked in disbelief.
Qin Sheng exined to the exploration team even more clearly to make them understand: "That was not an ident. It should be caused by a powerful attack from inside the Secret Realm."
"There should be the powerful creature inside that Secret Realm that identally got disturbed by our other team''s arrival, so itunched a powerful attack to strike the Secret Realm''s entrance from inside."
The exploration team took a deep breath to calm down their fear as they slowly muttered: "Powerful... creature?"
"Yes, at least not weaker than True Spirit Beast level." Qin Sheng added in a solemn tone.
The exploration team outside instantly felt very lucky that they did not enter the Secret Realm with the other team.
"I hope all of them will be all right..." Qin Sheng could only pray since his task was to guard the Secret Realm''s entrance outside, so he clearly could not enter recklessly enter the Secret Realm to warn the other team inside the Secret Realm.
Usually, Qin Sheng would send some exploration team members who were on his side to send the message into the Secret Realm, but there was an unknown creature with strength at least equal to True Spirit Beast inside the Secret Realm, so he clearly could not send them to die.
In the end, Qin Sheng could only hope that Zhu Jun or Zhu Zhenhua, who were already True Spirit Beast level, could defeat that unknown creature first before it killed the other weaker foxes.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue currently shook her head to clear her dizziness.
However, she soon found out that she was actually falling rapidly from the sky right now!
"Damn it~! Where the heck is this?!" Tang Li Xueined as thest thing she could remember was that she was walking in the space tunnel with the others.
Who knew that she suddenly fell from the sky alone right now?!
Tang Li Xue flipped her body in mid-air as she activated her [Wings of Freedom]''s buff, so she could fly freely in the sky.
But out of her expectations, she still could not fly at all, even after she activated her [Wings of Freedom]''s buff!
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she tried to condense a flying disc with her [Energy Maniption], but that flying disc also fell like a stone, and it could not fly at all.
Tang Li Xue immediately deduced that she should be already in the Secret Realm, and there should be some Flying Prohibition Formations here, so no one could fly inside this Secret Realm.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only use [Reflective Barrier] and create anotheryer of transparent barrier with her [Energy Maniption] to protect herself before she crashed onto the ground.
BAAAAAANGG~!
Tang Li Xue fell quite heavily into the middle of the lush forest until a more than six-meter diameter crater was created on the ground.
Fortunately, she waspletely uninjured because of the double protection of her [Reflective Barrier] and the transparent barrier created with her [Energy Maniption].
Tang Li Xue dispersed her double barrier and patted away the dust on her body.
Then she took out thepass device from her space pouch.
The exploration team said that thispass device could help her find the others who hold the button-like tracker.
The holographic screen appeared after Tang Li Xue pressed the button on thepass device, but nothing showed on the holographic screen.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she thought for a while before she took out the button-like tracker she put on her sleeve.
The exploration team told them not to put this tracker into their space pouch since thepass device would not be able to track them if they did so.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly when she saw the wrecked button-like tracker in her grasp.
It seemed the button-like tracker waspletely ruined because of the previous space tunnel''s disorder.
"What a cheap stuff~! They should really give us a spare tracker, so we can rece it if this one is damaged." Tang Li Xue grumbled unhappily.
Tang Li Xue waved her hand to release Little Loki and Yaya who were still resting in her Dantian.
"Nyaaaw~!"
"Yaaa~!"
Little Loki and Yaya jumped onto Tang Li Xue excitedly.
Little Loki sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head while Yaya sat on Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and felt d that she put both Little Loki and Yaya into her Dantian since they would definitely get separated if she did not do it before the space tunnel''s disorder happened.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki observed their surroundings carefully while thinking about which direction they should take.
They were currently in the middle of a lush forest with many huge trees and tall bushes.
Not to mention there was also thick white fog limiting their vision.
But Tang Li Xue could sense extremely thick spiritual energy contained in the thick white fog, if she could cultivate here every day, she would surely get twice the result with half effort.
Unfortunately, they clearly came here not for cultivation but for treasure hunting, so Tang Li Xue could only push away that idea.
"Oh, right... I almost forgot~! System, my punishment should already be over, right? So, I can take a new mission now, right?" Tang Li Xue excitedly asked to her system.
[Yes, Host can already trigger a new quest right now.]
''Good~! Then I want to find precious treasures containing abundant star energies in this Secret Realm~!'' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind.
*Ding~!
----------------------------------------------------
(Star Treasure Hunting in Secret Realm)
[Quest: Find precious treasures containing star energies in the Secret Realm!]
[Difficulty: Hard]
[Reward: The reward will be calcted ording to the total number ofprecious treasures containing star energies that the Host found in the Secret Realm.]
[Time Limit: Until the Host exits the Secret Realm.]
----------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue immediately regretted right after she triggered this quest as she thought: ''I should ask for a quest to umte all kinds of precious treasures instead, so I can obtain more rewardster. Oh, well... Forget it. It is already toote for me to regret it.''
It was because Tang Li Xue thought she would definitely be able to find a lot of precious treasures in this Secret Realm with Little Loki''s ability to ''smell'' treasures.
But Tang Li Xue was still worried about Instructor Mei Lan and Silly Fox, so she decided to take out themunication talisman from her space pouch and tried to call them.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''smunication talisman still failed to connect with Instructor Mei Lan and Silly Fox.
It seemed evenmunication talisman could not be used in this Secret Realm.
Tang Li Xue could only helplessly throw hermunication talisman back into her space pouch.
"Meow Nyaaww~!" (Over there~!)
"Mew Nyaaw Meow Mew Nyaow~! (I smell something really delicious from that direction~!)
Little Loki already impatiently jumped on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head while pointing its paw in their left direction.
"Hey, calm down, little guy! We still have a more important business to do~!" Tang Li Xue chuckled at Little Loki while taking out the [Treasure Map] from her System''s space.
"I wish to find precious treasures containing abundant star energies~!" Tang Li Xue happily muttered while holding the [Treasure Map] in her grasp.
But just when Tang Li Xue wanted to unfurl the [Treasure Map]...
Her sharp [Extrasensory Perception] instantly felt a big danger approaching fast toward her!
Tang Li Xue quickly lowered her head in reflex!
BWOOOSH~!
A swift sh brushed past the top of her head and managed to cut a few strands of her silver hair!
Tang Li Xue hastily jumped forward to keep her distance!
However, she was immediately dumbfounded when she saw her attacker.
"What the heck is that disgusting thing?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in a tone filled with disgust.
Her attacker was actually a two-meter-tall wolf, but it was clearly not a normal wolf.
Some parts of its body had already turned into a bloody skeleton while the meat parts had rotten and filled with pus.
''Disgusting'' word was not even enough to describe this abomination creature.
it was like something came out of the horror zombie movie.
Even the greedy Little Loki would definitely lose its appetite and did not dare to eat this disgusting creature.
"ROAAARRR~!" The two-meter zombie wolf pounced fearlessly toward Tang Li Xue again.
Chapter 812 812: Azure Dragon ’s Martial Art!
Chapter 812 Chapter 812: Azure Dragon Chapter''s Martial Art!
"Stop~!" Tang Li Xue spoke in a firm tone as she activated her [Mystic Whisper] divine ability.
The two-meter zombie wolf instantly froze in mid-air and fell onto the ground.
"What an ugly thing is this? Little Loki, do you want to eat it?" Tang Li Xue muttered in disgust while asking Little Loki.
Little Loki also showed a disgusted expression as it shook its tiny furry head to refuse.
"All right, then let''s use it to test the new martial art move I obtained recently from Azure Dragon Chapter~!" Tang Li Xue said happily.
Tang Li Xue would always unlock a new martial art move after mastering each chapter in [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art] such as [Water Mirage] and [Tiger Roaring sh].
If me of Pride had not merged with the Phoenix me Seed that Tang Li Xue unlocked after mastering the Crimson Phoenix Chapter before, she would already have four martial arts from [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art].
But it was also because me of Pride merged with the Phoenix me Seed that me of Pride could get its current Phoenix Form, and its growth potential soared to reach unimaginable levels like now.
After a few breaths of time, the effect of Tang Li Xue''s [Mystic Whisper] finally wore off, and the two-meter zombie wolf could move around freely again.
The two-meter zombie wolf stood up and rushed toward Tang Li Xue while opening its jaw filled with sharp but rotten teeth to bite Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue did not panic as she smiled sweetly at the two-meter zombie wolf that wasing swiftly toward her.
She slowly raised her slender fair hand as the deep purple lightning sparks began to spread!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The rumbling sound of thunder reverberated around when the deep purple lightning condensed into something dreadful.
The two-meter zombie wolf immediately halted its step as it sensed a great dangering from right in front of it, but unfortunately, it was already toote.
ROOOAAAARRR~!
Purple lightning and thunder intertwined with each other, and it condensed to form a dark purple lightning dragon.
The dark purple lightning dragon waspletely identical to the ninth Lightning Tribtion which Tang Li Xue had faced before!
But the dark purple lightning dragon Tang Li Xue condensed was only around one hundred feet tall. It was still far fromparable to the enormous dark purple lightning tribtion dragon thousands of feet tall which almost killed Tang Li Xue previously.
[World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]~!
The one-hundred-foot-tall lightning dragon flew toward the two-meter zombie wolf with unimaginable speed!
The [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] obtained from the Azure Dragon Chapter should condense the Azure-colored Lightning dragon, but who knew that it mutated after Tang Li Xue''s Golden Core absorbed the ninth lightning tribtion dragon and transformed to the current dark purple lightning dragon?!
BOOOOOMMM~!
Not only did it be much more powerful after it mutated, but it also contained the remnant Profound Law from the terrifying lightning tribtion!
The two-meter zombie wolf instantly evaporated into smoke without any strength to resist the dark purple lightning dragon at all!
Tang Li Xue waved her slender fair hand and the dark purple lightning dragon flew back toward her and circled around her a few times.
The dark purple lightning dragon waspletely under Tang Li Xue''s control as if it were her pet.
"This skill to condense a lightning dragon with my spiritual energy is not only cool but also really convenient~! It can be used to attack, defend, and restrict the enemy." Tang Li Xue concluded joyously.
After ying around with her [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] for a while, Tang Li Xue dispersed it to save her spiritual energy.
Even though this [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] was very powerful and flexible to use, it actually consumed her energy rapidly every second.
Tang Li Xue sighed as she thought: ''Another skill that consumes a lot of energy. It seems I have to practice [Essence Devouring Technique] more from now on, so I can master it faster, and I can drain the energy from my opponents for my own use.''
Tang Li Xue had long realized that the limited amount of energy had always been her weakness.
She has so many powerful skills and divine abilities such as [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon], [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes], [Purple Destruction Wave], and [Supernova Explosion Bomb], but all of them would consume her energy crazily, and she might only be able to use them once in every battle since she wouldpletely faint in exhaustion after that.
"Forget it... That problem will definitely be solved after I evolve to [Rare] grade beastter!" Tang Li Xue stated confidently.
Tang Li Xue immediately took out the [Treasure Map] from her System''s storage and muttered in a sincere tone: "I wish to find precious treasures containing abundant star energies~!"
Then she unfurled the [Treasure Map] without any hesitation and impatiently checked the content of the [Treasure Map].
There was a ck dot at the center of the [Treasure Map], and several red dots scattered around the [Treasure Map].
When Tang Li Xue tried to walk around, the ck dot in the [Treasure Map] also moved around.
"I see... So, this ck dot should be me, while the several red dots should be the precious treasures containing star energies that I am looking for~!" Tang Li Xue excitedly concluded.
"But these red dots scatter in different directions. Which one should I take first?" Tang Li Xue frowned and pondered carefully.
However, Tang Li Xue quickly realized the color of these red dots was a bit different. Most of them were light red, and a few of them were deep red.
"Does the color difference also indicate something?" Tang Li Xue uttered in confusion.
Then Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brighter as she eximed excitedly: "Don''t tell me the color difference actually shows the number of precious treasures?! The number of deep red dots is much fewer than the number of light red dots, so the precious treasures shown by deep red dots should be more precious, right?"
"Let''s go, Yaya, Little Loki~! We need to go now!" Tang Li Xue said to Yaya and Little Loki that distanced themselves further from the disgusting zombie wolf before.
Tang Li Xue did not me them at all, since she also really did not want to be touched by such a disgusting creature.
That was also the reason why she did not use any of her melee skills like [Moon Shattering Strike] or [Moonlight sh] in the previous battle against the zombie wolf.
Yaya and Little Loki jumped back onto Tang Li Xue''s right and left shoulders, then Tang Li Xue used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to sprint toward the deep red dot nearest to her current location.
The disgusting rotten smell in this lush forest made Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki feel very ufortable.
On the way, Tang Li Xue spotted several other small animals such as rabbits, rats, snakes, and squirrels, but all of them were already in a rotten zombified state.
All of them were also very aggressive. They immediately chased after Tang Li Xue after they sensed her!
But how could they catch up with Tang Li Xue so easily when she was using her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step]?!
No matter how hard they tried to catch up, they could no longer see Tang Li Xue''s slender figure after only a few breaths of time.
However, Tang Li Xue became more and more unsettled by this Secret Realm''s strangeness, and she suddenly had a bad feeling about this Secret Realm.
"Wait a minute... I wonder if there is some connection between these zombies and Undead Race. Zombies should be the member of Undead Race too, right?" Tang Li Xue murmured in a curious tone.
Unfortunately, she could not contact Instructor Mei Lan or Teacher Li Wei, so she could not get the answer to this question for now.
After thinking about the connection between these zombies and the Undead Race, Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes brightened again like a pair of stars as she suddenly got a brilliant idea.
Tang Li Xue did not stop running with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] as she took out something from her space pouch.
Yes, she actually took out the [Scepter of Disaster]... or rather it could also be called [Key of Undead''s Glory].
Tang Li Xue remembered the 3rd effect of this [Key of Undead''s Glory] which should be extremely useful for her current situation.
[Effect 3: Storing the corpses and souls of dead creatures. All the dead creatures stored inside will be nurtured with Death Energy and strengthen over time. They will also be more loyal and obedient to the holder over time.]
"If I store those zombies into this [Key of Undead''s Glory], does it mean I will have a loyal and obedient zombie army?!" Tang Li Xue excitedly muttered.
"Let''s try it right now~!" Tang Li Xue said as she began to look for a stronger zombie.
Those zombie rabbits, rats, snakes, and squirrels werepletely useless for Tang Li Xue, so she ignored thempletely.
Only powerful zombies like the previous zombie wolf could meet Tang Li Xue''s standard.
After sprinting nonstop for a few minutes in the lush forest, Tang Li Xue finally met with a zombie that met her standard.
It was not a zombie wolf but a zombie tiger!
The size of this zombie tiger was also much bigger than the previous zombie wolf as it actually reached six meters tall.
Chapter 813 813: Tang Li Xue’s Zombie Army!
Chapter 813 Chapter 813: Tang Li Xue''s Zombie Army!
Tang Li Xue could easily sense that this six-meter-tall zombie tiger should be much stronger than the previous two-meter-tall zombie wolf.
"ROOAAARRR~!" The zombie tiger greedily stared at Tang Li Xue as if it saw a rare delicacy.
But that made sense since the zombie tiger probably had never eaten fresh meat in a very long time. Who knew how long it had been trapped in this Secret Realm filled with only zombie creatures?!
Tang Li Xue was not afraid of the zombie tiger at all, but she suddenly thought of an extremely crucial problem right now.
"Err... Now, how should I store this zombie tiger into [Scepter of Disaster]?" Tang Li Xue murmured while pinching her chin and thinking of a way.
The zombie tiger took this chance to pounce swiftly toward Tang Li Xue and opened its jaw to take a bite of Tang Li Xue''s head!
Before Tang Li Xue could execute her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge the zombie tiger''s attack, Yaya who sat obediently on Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder suddenly waved her tiny hand.
[Tempest Prison]~!
The zombie tiger got trapped in the midst of the powerful swirling wind before it could even touch Tang Li Xue!
The zombie tiger might be quite powerful, but it was still far from enough to face Yaya, Little Loki, and Tang Li Xue.
Yaya, Little Loki, and Tang Li Xue had already fought so many powerful opponents in the Foxes Hunting Festival, and any predator-level foxes in the Foxes Hunting Festival could surely defeat this zombie tiger.
As for Apex Predator-level foxes, even Tang Li Xue, with her current strength that had already increased greatly, still had no confidence to win against any Apex Predator-level foxes.
After thinking carefully for a while, the [Scepter of Disaster] in Tang Li Xue transformed from the scepter form into the sword form, perhaps calling it [Sword of Disaster] would be more appropriate this time!
The color was still pitch ck as usual, but the glint of sharpness reflected on the surface of the sword could easily show how sharp this sword was.
"Oh, well... Let''s see if I can store it when I touch it with the [Sword of Disaster]." Tang Li Xue nonchntly said.
Meanwhile, the zombie tiger finally managed to jump out from Yaya''s [Tempest Prison] after spending so much effort.
PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue''s slender figure flickered toward the zombie tiger as she used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to get close to the zombie tiger, then she swung the [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp!
The [Sword of Disaster] easily cut the zombie tiger''s left side leaving a long and deep gashing wound on it!
The smelly rotten ck blood sttered on the grassy ground.
Luckily, Tang Li Xue had already distanced herself from the zombie tiger with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
If the smelly rotten ck blood sshed onto her, she might have fainted because of its unbearable smell.
"It did not work?! Tsk, what a hassle~!" Tang Li Xue murmured while frowning unhappily.
The zombie tiger seemed not to feel any pain as it pouched toward Tang Li Xue again!
Even its movement was not affected at all!
However, the zombie tiger''s movement was still too slow in Tang Li Xue''s eyes, so she could easily avoid the zombie tiger''s every attack.
Each time Tang Li Xue moved using [Moonlight Flickering sh Step], her slender figure would flicker around swiftly leaving only her afterimage behind.
The zombie tiger could only catch and y around with Tang Li Xue''s afterimage without being able to even touch her sleeve.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue swung the [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp rapidly several times and managed to leave many gaping wounds on the zombie tiger''s body!
After weakening the zombie tiger to a certain extent, Tang Li Xue condensed several chain handcuffs with her [Energy Maniption], and those chain handcuffs bound the zombie tiger''s body until it was no longer able to move any of its limbs.
"All right, it should have been powerless enough, right? Let''s see if I can store it in my [Sword of Disaster] right now. If I still cannot do it, maybe I should just cut all of its limbs firstter." Tang Li Xue muttered something scary without even feeling anything wrong with it.
In Tang Li Xue''s eyes, this zombie tiger had already been long dead, and it was only a mere rotten corpse right now, so her conscience was not hurt at all even if she cut it into tiny pieces.
Tang Li Xue still felt some resistance from the zombie tiger when she patted the [Sword of Disaster] onto its body, but fortunately, Tang Li Xue still sessfully stored that zombie tiger into her [Sword of Disaster].
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief, then she felt more and more excited as she thought that she would have her own personal zombie beast army soon.
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and Yaya to continue heading toward the direction of the nearest deep red dot.
On her way, she managed to catch a pack of zombie wolves, a pair of zombie bears, and a huge fifty-meter-long zombie phyton which pushed the number of Tang Li Xue''s zombie army to reach over twenty.
The exciting feeling of catching the zombie creatures reminded Tang Li Xue when she yed simr beast-catching RPG games in her previous life, so she immediately became addicted to it.
It made Tang Li Xue go astray from her previous route, and she only realized after a few hours passed, but the sky had already almost turned dark.
Just when Tang Li Xue was pondering if she should continue to catch more poke... cough, more zombie creatures or head straight to the deep red dot''s location, Tang Li Xue suddenly heard faint sounds of battle.
The sky had turned dark, but it did not hinder Tang Li Xue''s vision at all since she had [Night Vision] skill which further enhanced her ability to see everything clearly in the dark.
The thick white fog still greatly limited her vision, so Tang Li Xue decided to just activate her new awakened skill, [Fiery Bright Eyes]!
In that instant, Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were glowing with brilliant golden light!
With the [Fiery Bright Eyes]''s ability, Tang Li Xue could easily see through the thick white fog still, dense bushes, and tall giant trees!
She quickly saw a beautiful fox girl in human form fighting fiercely against more than a dozen zombie hyenas!
Tang Li Xue instinctively wanted to rush and help that fox girl, but she hastily halted her step before she could approach the fox girl.
''No~! If I help that fox girl right now, then we have to team up from now on. ording to the previous agreement, I had to let the exploration team hold the treasures I found first, and they would only give them back to me after I gave them my exploration ticket. So, it means I have to give all of the treasures I found to that fox girlter?! No way~!'' Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she thought about it.
After thinking carefully for a while, Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and decided not to help the fox girl while muttering: "Oh, well... She is still in her human form, so she should not have fighting seriously yet, right? I am sure she will be able to win easily after she transforms back to her fox form."
Right after Tang Li Xue said that the dense group of zombie bats suddenly came out of nowhere and began to attack the fox girl too!
The fox girl was run out of choice, so she could only transform back from her human form to her fox form in order to fight with her full strength against the zombie hyenas and zombie bats!
Tang Li Xue: "....."
However, Tang Li Xue immediately had a brilliant idea with her topaz blue eyes shining in excitement.
"How could I forget that I also have my own army~! Then let''s see the power of my zombie army against those hyenas and bats~!" Tang Li Xue stated excitedly as she released all of the zombie creatures she had stored in her [Sword of Disaster] until now.
Tang Li Xue only stored fifty zombie creatures so far, such as zombie tigers, zombie wolves, zombie bears, zombie leopards, and a huge zombie phyton.
Tang Li Xue still could notmand them to do anything difficult yet, but it was not a big problem to order them to fight against those zombie hyenas and zombie bats.
"Go~! Defeat those zombie hyenas and zombie bats!" Tang Li Xue ordered her newly formed zombie army.
"ROOOAAARRR~!" Tang Li Xue''s zombie beast army roared angrily as they rushed forward fearlessly!
Tang Li Xue could only hope that the fox girl would be smart enough to take this chance to run away instead of fighting against her zombie beast army.
Tang Li Xue''s zombie beast army easily trampled and tore the zombie hyenas apart, but the zombie bats were really troublesome to deal with since they could fly while Tang Li Xue''s zombie beast army could only fight on thend.
The fox girl becamepletely dumbfounded when she saw the zombie creatures suddenly fighting against each other right in front of her eyes.
Thankfully, the fox girl quickly ran away from the chaotic battlefield between the zombie creatures.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she saw the fox girl manage to escape safely from there.
Chapter 814 814: Medicine Garden Palace!
Chapter 814 Chapter 814: Medicine Garden Pce!
After Tang Li Xue saw the fox girl already run hundreds of miles away from the battlefield between zombie creatures, she immediately called back all of her zombie army.
The zombie bats not only could fly but they could fly at high speed.
There was no way for Tang Li Xue''s zombie army who could only fight on thend to win against those zombie bats.
Tang Li Xue stored all of her zombie army in her [Sword of Disaster] with one wave of her slender hand.
The zombie bats still refused to give up as they chased after Tang Li Xue instead.
Tang Li Xue used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to increase her running speed significantly, but the zombie bats could still keep up with her speed, and they slowly caught up to her.
Those arm-sized zombie bats might be weak if they were alone, but there were hundreds of them right now.
Tang Li Xue could surely win against them, but she had to spend a lot of energy, so she would rather choose not to waste her time and energy fighting against them.
Tang Li Xue frowned in annoyance when she saw the zombie bats get closer and closer to her from behind.
Then she immediately activated her [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment], and her slender figure quickly blended with the surroundings as she turnedpletely invisible and undetectable.
The zombie bats instantly lost track of Tang Li Xue as they flew around aimlessly to look for Tang Li Xue''s trace.
Unfortunately for them, they still failed to find Tang Li Xue, so they could only fly somewhere else and look for the other prey.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when she realized that those zombie bats no longer chased after her anymore.
"It seems I must also catch flying zombie units. But those zombie bats are too weak for my standard. They are only troublesome to deal with because of their overwhelming number." Tang Li Xue muttered while thinking.
Little Loki and Yaya fell asleep at Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and head when their natural bedtime arrived.
Little Loki put both of them to the Windy Hill area in her Dantian, so they could sleep morefortably.
After roaming in the dark forest for more than fifteen minutes, Tang Li Xue finally found her next capturing target, the zombie owl.
The size of zombie owl was three meters tall with a half-rotten head and ck feathers.
Tang Li Xue identally spotted this zombie owl when it hunted the zombie snake.
When the zombie owl swooped down from the sky to catch the zombie snake, Tang Li Xue immediately took this opportunity tounch a surprise attack on the zombie owl!
[Spirit Shock]~!
Tang Li Xue could only spread her spirit power and assault the consciousness of all living creatures near her with this [Spirit Shock] skill before.
But after practicing diligently for several days until it leveled up to level 2, Tang Li Xue could lock on the target and st her spirit power toward her target right now!
In short, her current [Spirit Shock] became much more powerful since she could focus all of her spirit power onto one target without any wasteful movement, and bypressing her spirit power before sting it toward her opponent, the power increased by several times!
BAANG~!
The zombie owl instantly fell onto the ground as it felt like its mind and consciousness were smacked heavily with a giant hammer.
Tang Li Xue walked leisurely to theatose zombie owl and tapped her [Sword of Disaster] lightly onto the zombie owl''s body.
She easily collected theatose zombie owl into the [Sword of Disaster], and her zombie army finally added the first flying zombie unit.
A stunning smile bloomed on Tang Li Xue''s charming face.
"I already tried all kinds of methods, but I still cannot fly in this Secret Realm. Can I finally fly if I ride on the zombie owl''s back?" Tang Li Xue pondered while smiling even more brightly.
But she immediately rejected that idea since she did not want the exploration team to find her.
At least she nned to find enough precious treasures containing star energies and evolve into a [Rare] Grade beast first before she gathered back with the exploration team.
"All right, It looks like I have to stop ying around for now and speed up to the location of the deep red dot first. As for catching zombie creatures to increase the number of my zombie army, I can do it at any timeter." Tang Li Xue muttered with a serious expression.
Tang Li Xue entered her [Ethereal Form] as she turned invisible once again, then she took out the [Treasure Map] to check the location of the deep red dot.
After determining the correct route, Tang Li Xue executed her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] as she dashed rapidly toward the location of the nearest deep red dot.
But despite her previous words, Tang Li Xue still could not hold back her urge to catch any zombie creatures she had seen on the way.
In the end, it took more than eight hours for Tang Li Xue to reach the location of the deep red dot, but the number of her zombie army had grown to more than one hundred.
Tang Li Xue managed to catch several other zombie owls, dozens of zombie vultures, and dozens of zombie foxes on the way.
Of course, those dozens of zombie foxes were not from the Myriad Foxes Academy''s exploration team. Those zombie foxes should be the beasts living in this Secret Realm before they were somehow infected by something horrible and became hideous zombie creatures like now.
Tang Li Xue also identally bumped into the other foxes from the exploration team several times on the way, but thankfully, she was in her [Ethereal Form] so they did not notice her at all, and Tang Li Xue easily passed them without them realizing it.
After spending more than eight hours, Tang Li Xue finally reached a tall mountain stone when the sun had just risen.
ording to the [Treasure Map], the precious treasure containing the abundant star energies that Tang Li Xue was looking for should be located on the peak of this tall mountain stone.
She could just let her flying zombie unit carry her and fly to the peak of this tall mountain stone, but after Tang Li Xue pondered carefully for a while, she decided to take a safer route instead.
Tang Li Xue unleashed all of her flying zombie units and ordered them to protect her while she created the white stairs under her feet using [Energy Maniption] and began to climb the tall mountain stone.
Tang Li Xue also raised her guard to the maximum since there should be some danger in this tall mountain stone.
ording to her experience until now, it should be impossible for any precious treasures to be unguarded.
The more precious a treasure, the stronger the strength that guards it.
However, Tang Li Xue only got attacked by several zombie falcons when she was climbing the tall mountain stone.
Those several zombie falcons were beaten back by Tang Li Xue''s dozens of zombie vultures and zombie owls.
Even though those zombie falcons were more powerful, but Tang Li Xue''s flying zombie army still managed to repel them away by relying on their numbers.
When Tang Li Xue reached the peak of the tall mountain stone, she saw an ancient luxurious pce.
Although this ancient pce might be unattended for a very long time, it was still in very good condition and almost as good as a new building.
"Medicine Garden Pce?" Tang Li Xue muttered when she read the namete above the pce''s gate.
Tang Li Xue tried to let her flying zombie army to fly into this Medicine Garden Pce and check if there was some hidden dangers inside.
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
But most of her flying zombie army exploded into blood mist just when they tried to fly into the Medicine Garden Pce.
"Stop~! Get back quickly~!" Tang Li Xue shouted in panic.
The rest of her flying zombie army quickly flew further from the Medicine Garden Pce.
Tang Li Xue had an intense heartache when she saw there was only less than a half dozen of her flying zombie army left.
Tang Li Xue had already spend more than eight hours to catch more than fifty flying zombie army, but most of them were actually obliterated in an instant just now.
"Damn it~! There should be an invisible killing formation around this Medicine Garden Pce!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-
white teeth in rage.
After Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her mood, she stretched her slender hands vigntly and pushed open the pce''s luxurious double gates.
The double gates was easily pushed open by Tang Li Xue, then she vigntly stretched her feet and slowly stepped into the Medicine Garden Pce.
Strangely, Tang Li Xue could actually step into the Medicine Garden Pce without facing any obstacles.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she stepped safely into the Medicine Garden Pce without triggering any hidden killing formation.
Out of vignce, Tang Li Xue still decided to release hernd zombie army and let them spread to explore the Medicine Garden Pce first.
But before Tang Li Xue and hernd zombie army could do anything...
"ROOOAAARRR~!"
The formations on the entire Medicine Garden Pce seemed toe alive right after a terrifying deafening roar echoed from the deeper part of the Medicine Garden Pce!
"Damn, this is not looking good at all~!" Tang Li Xue muttered as her expression became solemn.
Chapter 815 815: Strange Zombies!
Chapter 815 Chapter 815: Strange Zombies!
Unfortunately, it was already one step toote for Tang Li Xue to get out of the Medicine Garden Pce.
The entire Medicine Garden Pce had been sealed in a protective formation.
However, Tang Li Xue did not panic at all because there was Little Loki by her side.
No matter how profound or powerful the formation was, Little Loki could easily create a hole for them to escape with its [Heaven''s Devour].
"Nyaaa~?"
Little Loki tilted its tiny furry head cutely while staring at Tang Li Xue as if it asked Tang Li Xue whether it should use its [Heaven''s Devour] to open a hole in the protective formation right now.
Tang Li Xue smiled sweetly while patting Little Loki''s head gently and saying: "I really need the treasures in this ce, so we will explore this ce to find those treasures first."
"Ya? Yayaaa~!"
Tang Li Xue giggled when she saw Yaya puffed her cheeks and pouted in jealousy, so she also patted Yaya''s tiny head gently with her other hand.
Both Little Loki and Yaya squinted their eyesfortably.
After spoiling Little Loki and Yaya for a while, Tang Li Xue carefully proceeded deeper into the Medicine Garden Pce.
After passing the pce''s double gates, Tang Li Xue immediately stepped into the beautiful courtyard.
There were many shiny colorful flowers and nts which made the entire courtyard look like a heavenly garden, but Tang Li Xue raised her guard even more instead.
"GRRAAAWRR~!"
An angry roar echoed through the entire courtyard all of a sudden!
Tang Li Xue hastily looked toward the direction where the angry roar came from and spotted a zombie tiger from hernd zombie army almost swallowed by a colorful flower!
Tang Li Xue dashed toward the colorful flower with the ck [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp, but before she could get close to it, the other nts and flowers instantly erged!
They opened their mouth filled with sharp teeth and acidic saliva, then began to attack Tang Li Xue and hernd zombie army in order to greedily devour them!
"Damn it~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in annoyance as she took a rapid circr step and spun her slender upper body while swinging the ck [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue''s [Sword of Disaster] easily cut every colorful nt and flower that pounced toward her!
The acidic liquid in their body spurted out, but Tang Li Xue hastily executed her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to get away from them, so the spurting acidic liquid would not ssh onto her body or clothes.
However, all of the nts and flowers that Tang Li Xue cut actually began to regenerate rapidly, and it did not take long for them topletely recover to normal.
All of those colorful nts and flowers were extremely ferocious as they began to swallow Tang Li Xue''s zombie army one by one very quickly!
In only a few breaths of time, Tang Li Xue had already lost more than half of hernd zombie army!
At this time, Little Loki and Yaya had jumped away from Tang Li Xue''s shoulders and began to help her fight against the colorful nts and flowers!
[Compressed Wind Swords]~!
[Phantom Splitters] plus [Scythe w Qi]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Little Loki and Yaya chopped the approaching colorful nts and flowers like cutting off the vegetables, but all of those colorful nts and flowers could regenerate extremely fast, so they kept attacking them relentlessly without giving them any chance to take a breath!
"Do you really think your regeneration ability is so awesome?! Then let''s see if you can handle this~!" Tang Li Xue angrily uttered as her deep blue me of Pride condensed into something solid.
[Sun Dragon ws] plus [Sun Dragon Fangs]~!
A pair of deep blue me dragon ws and a deep blue me dragon head instantly solidified!
Tang Li Xue even unleashed her domain prototype without any hesitation!
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
A brilliant golden light shone as a faint image of the sun formed behind her!
BWOOOOSH~!
The entire courtyard was instantly lit in deep blue me of Pride mixed with Golden Sun me!
Normally, all kinds of nts should be burned to nothingness under Tang Li Xue''s [Sun Form Domain] which contained her Profound Law of Heat, but these colorful nts and flowers were surprisingly very resilient.
Although they were already set aze by Tang Li Xue''s two different types of mes, they were attacking Tang Li Xue and her group even more desperately than before!
Tang Li Xue controlled her pair of [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] to block and tear them apart before they could touch her!
Tang Li Xue suddenly had an intense bad feeling about this, so she shouted in a solemn tone: "Let''s run into the pce quickly~!"
With Little Loki and Yaya helping her to open the way, Tang Li Xue could reach the pce in only a few breaths of time.
Tang Li Xue hastily pushed open the door, then stepped into the pce, so the colorful nts and flowers could no longer chase and attack her anymore.
When her mes managed to burn all the colorful nts and flowers into nothingness, the transparent golden protective formation instantly changed color into crimson!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The formation unleashed hundreds of crimson swords and cut everything in the courtyard indiscriminately!
The hundreds of crimson swords killed the rest of Tang Li Xue''snd zombie army as if the formation was enraged by the colorful nts'' extermination.
Tang Li Xue felt heartbroken when she saw her entirend zombie army being ughtered by the formation, but there was really nothing she could do to save them.
"Aiss~! My one-day hard work to catch those zombie beasts is wasted just like that!" Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
Aftermenting the tragic fate of her newly formed zombie army for a few moments, Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her mood while muttering: "That is all right. I can just catch more of themter. The most important thing for me to do right now is to find the precious treasures with abundant star energies in this ursed ce."
"Nyaaw~!"
"Yaaa?"
Little Loki and Yaya jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s shoulders while worriedly staring at her.
"Don''t worry, I am all right. But we have to be more careful from now on. It should be much more dangerous inside here than outside there since they should store the precious treasures inside here." Tang Li Xue warned Little Loki and Yaya.
Little Loki and Yaya nodded at Tang Li Xue with firm expressions.
The interior of Medicine Garden Pce was also luxurious and well-decorated, but Tang Li Xue noticed that there were actually many dried corpses littering everywhere in this ce which ruined such a majestic beautiful ce.
The dried corpses here were wearing the uniform Daoist robe. It seemed they should have been working on this Medicine Garden Pce when they were alive.
"What a minute... Corpses? Don''t tell me..." Tang Li Xue frowned deeply while murmuring in a suspicious tone.
CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
Before Tang Li Xue could finish her words, those dried corpses began to twitch and slowly stood up!
"Damn, I knew this would happen~!" Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body stiffened when more than a hundred dried corpses turned their head and stared at her at the same time.
"ROAAARR~!"
Those dried corpses roared at Tang Li Xue as they took out their weapons from their spatial treasures and rushed toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
"What?! These zombies can actually use weapons?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
Despite being shocked and surprised, Tang Li Xue''s reaction was not slow at all.
She raised the ck [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp as she took a circr step and spun her upper slender body while swinging her sword rapidly!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Tang Li Xue not only managed to block all of the dried corpses'' attacks, but she managed to repel them a few steps back.
But Tang Li Xue secretly felt even more shocked when she found out that these dried corpses... or dried zombies could actually use martial arts and spells when they were alive. They even still have their cultivation despite already died a long time ago!
This was truly a strange phenomenon in Tang Li Xue''s opinion.
Tang Li Xue faintly smelled a consOriginal in this Secret Realm.
She even started to suspect that this Secret Realm might be a trap set by someone for them to jump into it... Yes, for example, someone from Undead Race.
Zombie and Undead Race should be very close enough, right?
Tang Li Xue certainly would not believe that the destruction of this fallen ancient sect did not have any connection with the Undead Race.
''This Secret Realm is getting weirder and weirder... Is it really all right for me to evolve into [Rare] Grade Beast here?'' Tang Li Xue frowned deeper as she pondered carefully.
Meanwhile, Little Loki and Yaya had already made their move to help Tang Li Xue to fight against these dried zombies.
The cultivation of these dried zombies was not low at all. It ranged from the Foundation Establishment Stage to the Core Formation Stage.
Moreover, they were good at fighting in group formation. They could use it freely as if it was already engraved into their bones before they died.
Even Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Yaya could not deal with them as easily as the previous colorful nts and flowers.
Chapter 816 816: Breaking Apart The Battle Formation!
Chapter 816 Chapter 816: Breaking Apart The Battle Formation!
"These damn corpses~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth as she unleashed her [Reflective Barrier] to block the spells thrown by several dried corpses at the back row of the formation.
The [Reflective Barrier] not only blocked the meballs, Wind des, Icicle Spikes, and so on which were shot toward Tang Li Xue, but it also reflected them back!
But the dried corpses on the front row of the formation immediately used their barrier spells and treasures to block it!
Their group formation was truly exquisite, and it was enough to make Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki have some difficulties fighting against them.
Unfortunately, it did notst long since Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki had already figured out how to break their group formation.
Little Loki activated its [Phantom Splitters], and its tiny ck figure was split into ten identical figures, then all ten Little Lokis activated [Instant Teleportation] at the same time!
Ten Little Lokis instantly appeared right behind the rearmost part of the formation, and they began tounch a fatal sudden attack on those corpses!
[sh and sh]~!
[Scythe w Qi]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Ten Little Lokis cut the corpses on the rearmost part of the formation rapidly like cutting off vegetables!
Those corpses did not even have any time to react at all. Maybe it was because those corpses could no longer think, and they could only fight based on the instinct engraved on their body when they lived.
When the dried corpses'' battle formation was in disarray, Tang Li Xue and Yaya quickly took this chance to deliver the finishing blow at them!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
Tang Li Xue swiftly stabbed the ck [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp rapidly until she managed to stab the heads of those dried corpses.
When many of them fell down because of Tang Li Xue''s [Tracing Counter], Yaya immediately unleashed her [Vacuum sh] to tear them apart to pieces!
Even though they could use more forceful ways to break their formation such as using [Cyclone Storm], [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes], or [Sun Form Domain Prototype], but Tang Li Xue and Yaya did not dare to use it inside this pce.
They still needed to find the precious treasures containing star energies inside this ce after all.
If they identally tore down or burned down this entire pce because of it, they could only cry in vain since they might no longer be able to find those precious treasures with star energies here.
After the corpses'' battle formationpletely copsed, Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki defeated the rest of the corpses easily.
Tang Li Xue stared at the dried corpses that had already been torn to pieces on the ground and sighed in regret: "Aiss, it is really such a great pity~! It would be very nice if I could subdue all of these dried corpses and make them part of my zombie army."
Unfortunately, it clearly could not be done that easily...
Tang Li Xue had already done a lot of trials and tests in using her [Sword of Disaster] to catch more than a hundred zombie creatures in order to form her personal zombie army before, so she managed to find a few important ''rules'' about it.
First, the strength of the zombies, corpses, and ghosts could not be higher than her, since she would not be strong enough to store them into her [Sword of Disaster].
Second, she had to suppress or immobilize them first before she could store them in her [Sword of Disaster].
Third, she could also inject the Death Energy from the [Sword of Disaster] into any skeletons or corpses to turn them into zombie-like creatures.
Fourth, Death Energy from the [Sword of Disaster] was like a tonic for death creatures like zombies, corpses, and ghosts. Not only they could restore their iplete bodies and get stronger by absorbing the Death Energy, but they would also get smarter over time if continuously nurtured by Death Energy.
Well, there were still several more detailed rules, but those two were the most crucial ones.
Especially the second rule was the main reason why Tang Li Xue could not just catch these dried corpses and store them in her [Sword of Disaster] just like that.
"Death Energy can turn corpses to turn them into zombies... I wonder if the creatures in this Secret Realm turned into zombies because there is Death Energy here? Then where does Death Energy in this Secret Realme from?" Tang Li Xue murmured her suspicion.
But Tang Li Xue immediately shook her head to push away her thought while saying: "Forget it... The most important thing for me to do right now is to find enough precious treasures with star energy, so I can evolve to [Rare] Grade Beast as soon as possible."
"After I evolved to [Rare] Grade Beast, my overall strength would increase dramatically, and I might even reach the Apex Predator Level genius fox. At that time, I can look for more treasures, catch more powerful zombie creatures, and even find the mystery behind the destruction of this ancient sectter." Tang Li Xue stated confidently.
"Nyaaaaw~!"
"Yaaa~!"
Little Loki and Yaya headed back toward Tang Li Xue which broke Tang Li Xue''s thought.
Yaya smiled sweetly as she flew and sat on Tang Li Xue''s shoulder, while Little Loki put on its usual cute smug expression.
Tang Li Xue giggled at the two of them and caressed their head gently while praising them: "Good job, Little Loki, Yaya~! But there should be more dangers ahead, so we must not lower our guards yet, do you two understand?"
"Meoow~!" "Yayaaa~!" (Understood~!)
Tang Li Xue smiled in satisfaction as she pitched their cheeks lightly and encouraged them by saying: "Good~! Then I will be counting on you two againter."
After advising and encouraging Little Loki and Yaya for a while, Tang Li Xue quickly led the two of them to enter deeper into the Medicine Garden Pce.
When they reached the long corridor, they once again saw many dried corpses littered on the floor.
CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~! CRACKLE~!
All of the dried corpses on the ground twitched violently, and they quickly stood up as if they could sense the living breath full of vitality from Tang Li Xue and her group and wanted to devour their flesh and blood as soon as possible.
"Sigh~! Again, huh... Just how many dried corpses are in this ce?!" Tang Li Xueined in annoyance.
The dried corpses swiftly arranged their battle formation and began to attack Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki in unison.
But Lang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki had already prepared, so they effortlessly blocked or dodged their attacks.
By repeating the previous strategy, Lang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki easily broke their battle formation apart and cut them to pieces, so they would never be able to revive and fight again.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki continued to explore the Medicine Garden Pce, but this Medicine Garden Pce was very big, and it even had three floors.
Basement, first floor, and second floor...
Every time Tang Li Xue and her group stepped into a new room or area, they would be attacked by a group of dried corpses again and again.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki might be able to defeat them easily, but it was just too tiring to do it over and over again.
There might be thousands of dried corpses of cultivators in this Medicine Garden Pce.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki clearly would not be able to clear all of those thousands of dried corpses even if they spent a whole week in this Medicine Garden Pce.
Not to mention Tang Li Xue definitely did not want to waste so much of her time and energy just to clean the dried corpses here.
The frustrated Tang Li Xue took out the [Treasure Map] from her System''s storage to see if she could find any clue about the exact location of the precious treasures with star energies in this Medicine Garden Pce.
Luckily, Tang Li Xue found out that she could actually zoom in on the deep red dot in the [Treasure Map] to find the exact location of the precious treasures with star energies.
"Damn it, so this [Treasure Map] can even do this?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
But Tang Li Xue immediately bumped into another problem...
The treasure location on the [Treasure Map] was shown from above while this Medicine Garden Pce has three floors in total.
In short, they might have already known the exact location of the precious treasures, but they still did not have any clue if the precious treasures were located in the basement, first floor, or second floor.
Tang Li Xue did not have a choice other than checking the floor one by one.
"That is all right. At least, we know the exact location of the treasures. Let''s go, Little Loki, Yaya~!" Tang Li Xue could only try tofort herself.
They were currently still on the first floor, so Tang Li Xue decided to check the first floor first.
But when they were heading toward the location of the treasures on the first floor, they bumped into another strange zombie creature in the big hall at the center of the Medicine Garden Pce.
"CHIIIIIRRPP~!"
It was actually a giant crane as tall as more than ten meters!
The swirling wind quickly gathered on its wide wings which were as white as snow.
But the most disturbing thing was that there was a huge rotten hole filled with puss and maggots in the giant crane''s chest.
"Sigh~! Another annoying zombie creature..." Tang Li Xue murmured while taking a deep breath dejectedly.
Chapter 817 817: Double Dragons!
Chapter 817 Chapter 817: Double Dragons!
The giant crane pped its wings toward Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki.
In that instant, dozens of wind des were flying swiftly toward Tang Li Xue and her group!
[Hurricane Barrier]~!
BWOOOOOSSSH~!
Yaya immediately unleashed her [Hurricane Barrier] to block the iing wind des!
But out of everyone''s expectations, the giant crane''s dozens of wind des could actually cut through Yaya''s [Hurricane Barrier]!
"Watch out~!" Tang Li Xue shouted to warn Yaya and Little Loki as she released her [Reflective Barrier] to cover the three of them.
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Dozens of wind des mercilessly struck Tang Li Xue''s [Reflective Barrier] until it trembled violently, and several thin cracks began to spread on the surface of the transparent [Reflective Barrier].
Tang Li Xue''s expression became more solemn since this might be the first time they have met with the creature that could rival or even surpass Yaya in terms of wind power and control.
Before Tang Li Xue''s [Reflective Barrier] could shatter under the barrage of wind des, Yaya hastily released another skill to weaken the giant crane''s wind elemental power.
[Dissonance Melody]~!
This [Dissonance Melody] could not only make all of the foes in a certain radius feel sore eyes and dizzy, thus decreasing their uracy by a lot, but it also made the surrounding wind be extremely chaotic, so it would decrease the power of the opponent''s wind elemental ability by more than 75%.
This skill should be the nemesis for all creatures with wind elemental abilities!
The giant crane started to fly unsteadily in the big hall under the effect of [Dissonance Melody].
BAAAANG~!
It even crashed onto the wall clumsily.
"This is our chance! Let''s finish it off quickly!" Tang Li Xue instructed Little Loki and Yaya as she raised her slender hand and the deep purple lightning sparks began to spread.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The rumbling sound of thunder echoed inside the hall when the deep purple lightning condensed into a majestic silhouette.
[World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]~!
Purple lightning and thunder intertwined with each other, and it condensed to form a dark purple lightning dragon.
The one-hundred-foot-tall lightning dragon shed toward the giant crane!
BOOOOOOOMM~!
The giant crane fell onto the floor heavily, but it was far still far from being defeated as it still wrestled violently with the dark purple lightning dragon!
Tang Li Xue''s [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] wrapped its body around the giant crane.
Its deep purple lightning kept electrocuting and scorching the giant crane''s body, but the zombie giant crane could no longer feel any pain, so it kept struggling violently and even pecking the [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon].
Tang Li Xue could feel that her energy consumption increased much more than usual because of the giant crane''s violent struggle.
At this time, Little Loki had already entered its [Battle Form], and its tiny cute kitten form transformed into a three-meter tall imposing figure.
Its entire body was covered with pitch-ck shiny scales. It also had a pair of glinted sharp ck horns on its forehead and a pair of strong ck wings on its back.
"Woah, Little Loki~! You finally use your cool Mount Form~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in an excited tone.
Little Loki: "???!!!"
It stared at Tang Li Xue with an aggravated expression: ''Can you please just forget about Mount Form?! This is clearly Battle Form, okay?!''
Despite its annoyance, Little Loki still used its [Phantom Splitters], and its pitch-ck imposing figure was split into ten identical figures.
[Rain of Scythe w Qi]~!
The ten Little Lokis immediately bombarded the giant crane nonstop with their [Scythe w Qi]!
But the giant crane hastily raised its wide wings to cover itself!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
The feathers on the giant crane''s wings were not only light, but they were also extremely hard as if they were made from metal.
Even Little Loki''s [Rain of Scythe w Qi] was blocked by the giant crane''s wings!
"Damn it~! This damn bird is actually so tenacious! You are only a zombie right now, so you can just go to sleep forever already!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in annoyance.
However, Yaya suddenly appeared right in front of the giant crane at this point!
It seemed Yaya had cast [Traceless Wind Cover] to turn herself invisible and [Wind Guardian Blessing] to increase her overall speed, so she could approach the giant crane swiftly and sneakily.
When the giant crane was too busy blocking Little Loki''s [Rain of Scythe w Qi] using its wings, Yaya took this chance to deliver the fatal finishing blow toward the giant crane from the melee range.
[Vacuum sh] plus [Shockwave Impact]~!
[Vacuum sh] was Yaya''s most powerful skill after [Cyclone Storm], while [Shockwave Impact] could increase the lethality of Yaya''s skill by several times!
But even so, the tenacious giant crane still managed to react at thest moment by tilting its entire body to the left side!
PUUUUFFF~!
Yaya''s powerful fatal attack from the melee range actually failed to cut the giant crane in two, but at least it still managed to cut the giant crane''s left wing!
"Holy cow, it can even dodge that?!" Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes and eximed in surprise.
Tang Li Xue secretly admired the strength of the giant crane.
It was assaulted mercilessly by her [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon], Little Loki''s [Rain of Scythe w Qi], and Yaya''s [Vacuum sh] plus [Shockwave Impact], but it still managed to hold on tenaciously until now.
Unfortunately for the giant crane, its end might have already been determined after it lost its left wing since it could no longer fly or defend itselfpletely with only its right wing.
Tang Li Xue immediately decided to end this battle as soon as possible by using her [Twin Moons] to summon out her perfect copy.
"Yo~! It is finally my turn, huh... I am tired of waiting~!" The perfect copy smiled excitedly while stretching her slender body.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and said to her perfect copy: "Just end this battle quickly, we might need to face much stronger opponents in the treasure roomter. It should be impossible for the treasure room to be unguarded."
"Okay~! I have been itching to use that martial art, so let me use it too!" The perfect copy said raising her hand forward.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
[World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]~!
The perfect copy actually condensed the second dark purple lightning dragon!
The giant crane was already overwhelmed when it was currently wrestling with Tang Li Xue''s [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] with only its ws and right wing, and right now, the perfect copy''s second [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] joined the battle too.
The perfect copy [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] struck the giant crane, then wrapped its body and bit its neck!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The giant crane could no longer hold on anymore as its body was slowly roasted to ashes by the lightning attack of the two [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon].
After dozens of seconds, the giant crane waspletely evaporated to nothingness.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy immediately dispersed their [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] to save their energy.
Yaya flew back and sat on Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder to rest, while Little Loki had already transformed back from its [Battle Form] to its normal cute kitten form and jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder.
Tang Li Xue decided to rest for one hour in this big hall to recover their energy first while discussing their next n carefully.
"I think it would be more efficient if we split into two teams, so we can explore this ce faster." Tang Li Xue stated her idea.
The perfect copy nodded her head in agreement and added: "That is true. If you find the treasure room, you can just re-
summon me. If I find the treasure room, you just need to use [Swap] and re-summon me. Anyway, it would be much more convenient that way."
"Then you will go with Little Loki, and I will go with Yaya." Tang Li Xue muttered while taking some food and beast cores from her space pouch to feed Yaya and Little Loki.
Little Loki put on a displeased look while ring at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue giggled at Little Loki''s cute pouting expression. She caressed Little Loki''s tiny furry head gently while saying something tofort it: "My perfect copy does not have me of Pride and [Sword of Disaster], so she needs your help more."
But Yaya puffed her cheek in jealousy when she saw Tang Li Xue only patting Little Loki.
Tang Li Xueughed as she also patted Yaya''s tiny head gently.
Who knew that her perfect copy also puffed her cheeks and stared at Tang Li Xue with a displeased look?!
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched as she scolded her perfect copy: "Stop ying around and be more serious! We are still in a dangerous ce right now!"
"You... You clearly treated me far worse than your pets~! I want to sue you~! I want an equal treatment with them!" The perfect copy shouted angrily.
"What are you talking about?! They are our closepanions! How could youin like that?! Moreover, you are already an adult, so how could you ask an equal treatment with cubs like them?! Are you a big baby or something?! Do you want me to buy a pacifier for you?!" Tang Li Xue rebuked her perfect copy angrily.
The perfect copy: "....."
The perfect copy instantly became speechless by Tang Li Xue''s words. Somehow she thought there was something really wrong with it, but she did not know how to answer it, so she could only aggrievedly draw a circle on the ground alone at the corner of the hall.
After joking around and resting for an hour or so, they continued their journey to find the treasure room, but this time, they split into two teams.
Little Loki and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy will go to the basement, while Tang Li Xue and Yaya will check the first floor.
Chapter 818 818: Heavenly Sword Techniques!
Chapter 818 Chapter 818: Heavenly Sword Techniques!
They faced many other dried corpses on their way.
Little Loki and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could fight much easier against those dried corpses since Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitters] plus [Instant Teleportation] could easily dismantle their battle formation.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya might had some difficulties fighting against those dried corpses in their battle formation, but it did not mean they could not win at all.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya only needed to spend a lot more effort to defeat them instead. After all, Tang Li Xue still had [Shadow Striders]''s equipment skill, [Shadow sh], which could said to be a lesser version of Little Loki''s [Instant Teleportation] since it could only teleport to nearby shadows.
However, this was just a perfect situation for Tang Li Xue to practice her hands.
Tang Li Xue imbued the ck [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp with [Sharp Edge Power] to increase its sharpness by several times.
She lithely moved around using her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] until she left several afterimages in the corridor while performing her new sword skills.
[Heavenly Sword Techniques], Flooding Stabs!
Tang Li Xue thrust her [Sword of Disaster] rapidly toward those dozens of dried corpses until she created so many afterimages of her [Sword of Disaster]!
Those dozens of dried corpses seemed to be assaulted by a tsunami of swords in that instant!
They tried to defend themselves using their defense spells and treasures, but Tang Li Xue''s sword looked as if it was flooding them from all sides!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue''s tsunami of ck swords easily tore them to pieces in the blink of an eye.
Tang Li Xue smiled and nodded in satisfaction while saying: "This set of [Heavenly Sword Techniques] is really powerful, but it is so hard to use. My entire arm is already a bit sore only after using it once. No wonder it was said that only Core Formation Stage cultivators could barely use it."
It should be known that Tang Li Xue already had a quite high Toughness stat, so she should be much more resilient than most Core Formation Stage cultivators that did not train their physique.
If it was an ordinary Core Formation Stage cultivator used this [Heavenly Sword Techniques], the muscles and bones on their entire arm would be damaged, they would not be able to move their arm around, and it would take at least a few days for their arm to recover.
As for Tang Li Xue, she only needed one second or even less topletely recover her sore arm with her [High-Speed Regeneration] plus [Sun And Moon Aegis].
"Let''s go, Yaya~!" Tang Li Xue called while waving her hand to the flying Yaya.
Yaya happily flew back toward Tang Li Xue and sat on her left shoulder leisurely.
Tang Li Xue vigntly proceeded deeper into the first floor of Medicine Garden Pce.
There were many rooms with different courtyards on the first floor of Medicine Garden Pce.
Like its Medicine Garden''s name, many precious nts should be nted in every courtyard.
If Tang Li Xue wanted to harvest all of the precious nts nted in those courtyards, she needed to enter all of the rooms first and clean all of the dried corpses in those ces.
It would certainly take her a considerable amount of time, so Tang Li Xue still decided not to be too greedy and only focused on finding the precious treasures containing star energies for now.
Her evolution to [Rare] Grade Beast was still her utmost important priority after all.
.....
While Tang Li Xue took her time to practice her hands against those dried corpses, the perfect copy and Little Loki had almost reached the location of the treasure in the basement since they proceeded much faster than Tang Li Xue''s team.
Well, it was mainly because Little Loki could defeat those dried corpses a lot easier by relying on its [Instant Teleportation] and [Phantom Splitters].
It was like having ten Little Lokis working hard to clean those dried corpses on their way.
As of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy...
CLAP~! CLAP~! CLAP~!
The perfect copy pped her hands with a happy smile on her stunningly beautiful face as she leisurely watched ten Little Lokis mow down those dried corpses like a bunch of vegetables.
"Good job, Little Loki~! Keep it up! We are almost there!" The perfect copy encouraged Little Loki without any intention to help it at all.
Little Loki rolled its eyes disdainfully at the unreliable perfect copy. It really wanted to scold the unreliable perfect copy so badly right now.
How could a mere clone bezier than even a kitten?!
However, Little Loki was toozy to argue with her at this point since they were already so close to the location of the treasure in the basement.
After walking through a long dark corridor, the perfect copy and Little Loki arrived at the double metal gates.
"Garden of Benevolent Peace..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy read the signboard above the double metal gates.
The perfect copy frowned and muttered in a disappointed tone: "This ce does not seem to be the treasure room... Oh, well... Let''s try to check it first."
Little Loki nodded in agreement at the perfect copy.
The perfect copy stretched her slender hands toward the metal gates and exerted her strength to push open the metal gates.
CREAAK~! CREAAK~! CREAAK~!
The metal gates made a grating sound as it rubbed against the floor.
Just as the perfect copy managed to push open a gap in the metal gates, her [Extrasensory Perception] immediately sensed an iing danger, so she hastily stepped aside from the metal gates.
BWOOOOSSHH~!
A swift arrow brushed past her front hair, just when she stepped aside from the gap in the metal gates!
"Damn it~! So, there are already enemies waiting for us inside here?!" The perfect copy angrily said.
The perfect copy kicked open the metal gates in rage.
Surprisingly, there was actually a paradise-like space behind the metal gates.
With advanced Spiritual Energy Gathering Formation, the spiritual energy in this space was many times thicker than outside.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately understood that this ''Garden of Benevolent Peace'' should be the ce for the elders of this Medicine Garden Pce to retreat in order to practice cultivation.
There were also many rare precious nts nted in this space.
Even though Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had not checked any of them using her basic [All Knowing Eyes] yet, she could still easily guess it from the environment of this space which was much higher than the other ce.
They had not seen any dried corpses in this space yet, and the ones who attacked them just now were actually puppets in golden armor.
There should be around thirty-six puppets wearing golden armor in total, and their task should be to protect this space from invading enemies.
After Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy forcefully kicked open the metal gate in rage, the thirty-six puppets in golden armor rushed forward swiftly toward her to eliminate her as soon as possible!
The perfect copy did not want to fight against those thirty-six golden armored puppets head-on all at once, so she hastily used [Water Mirage]!
Her slender figure instantly split into many identical figures!
But the thirty-six golden armored puppets were not daunted as they brandished their weapons mercilessly toward so many Tang Li Xues!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Those golden armored puppets cut down dozens of Tang Li Xues'' figures in one breath and turned into a puddle of water.
Little Loki took this chance to use [Instant Teleportation] and instantly appeared right behind those thirty-six golden armored puppets, then it opened its tiny mouth widely.
[Heaven''s Devour]~!
With its extremely sharp sense of smell, Little Loki might be disgusted to eat those dirty and smelly zombies and dried corpses filled with maggots, but these finely crafted thirty-six golden armored puppets looked really delicious in Little Loki''s eyes.
As if a tiny ck hole was opened in Little Loki''s tiny mouth, several golden armored puppets were sucked toward it!
Little Loki swallowed down four of those golden armored puppets in one gulp!
But when it wanted to swallow more golden armored puppets, a few of them already attacked Little Loki from behind, so Little Loki could only use [Instant Teleportation] again to avoid their attacks.
When those golden armored puppets were busily targeting Little Loki and [Water Mirage], the real perfect copy had already prepared to use one of her most powerful skills.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The rumbling sound of thunder echoed inside the space when the deep purple lightning condensed into a powerful silhouette.
[World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]~!
Purple lightning and thunder intertwined with each other, and it condensed to form a dark purple lightning dragon.
The one-hundred-foot-tall lightning dragon flew toward the golden armored puppets!
But before the perfect copy''s [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] could sh against those golden armored puppets, Little Loki actually used its [Heaven''s Devour] for the second time to devour several more golden armored puppets along with the perfect copy''s [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "???!!!"
"Hey, hey, hey~! What are you doing?! Why are you also swallowing my lightning dragon?! Can you see that it is not a spicy strip?!" The perfect copyined angrily at Little Loki.
Chapter 819 819: Corpse Or Living Person?!
Chapter 819 Chapter 819: Corpse Or Living Person?!
Little Loki licked greedily its lips with a satisfied expression, but it immediately snorted unhappily at the perfect copy.
"Nyaa Meow~! Mew Nyaaooww!" (They are my snacks~! So, don''t ruin my meal!)
Little Loki smugly scolded the perfect copy.
The perfect copy pouted in displeasure after she heard Little Loki''s reply, but before she could say anything to Little Loki, the rest of the golden armored puppets already rushed toward her and Little Loki to attack the two of them.
"Tsk~! What a bunch of annoying dolls?! Hey, Little Kitten! I will use my divine ability to immobilize them for a few moments. You can just take that chance to swallow them all, okay?!" The perfect copy clicked her tongue in annoyance and told Little Loki about her next n.
Little Loki red at the perfect copy angrily when it heard she called it ''Little Kitten''.
Just when the des and spears in the golden armored puppets almost reached Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy...
"All of you, stop moving right now~!" The perfect copy activated her [Mystic Whisper].
Little Loki already used its [Instant Teleportation] to appear instantly right behind those golden armored puppets!
[Heaven''s Devour]~!
Little Loki opened its tiny mouth widely, and several golden armored puppets immediately got sucked into its mouth!
The other golden armored puppets quickly struggled before Little Loki could devour them, but the perfect copy would obviously never let them have their way.
She hastily condensed dozens of rings to bind all of the golden armored puppets with her [Energy Maniption]!
She even incorporated the array engraving knowledge when she created those rings.
This time, the [Sturdy] rune, [Energy Sealing] rune, and [Immobilize] rune formed oneplete array to create those rings.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were clearly not that proficient yet in that field since they were only learning and practicing it for a few days thus the array failed to engrave on those rings.
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
The golden armored puppets forcefully broke free from the binding of those rings, but unfortunately for them, it was a bit toote since Little Loki already moved closer toward them while using its [Heaven''s Devour]!
Just like a vacuum cleaner sucking all the dust, Little Loki managed to swallow all of the golden armored puppets in only a few breaths of time thanks to the perfect copy''s assist.
Little Lokizily sat on the floor and licked its lips again in satisfaction.
It secretly thought that the taste of those golden armored puppets was a lot richer than beast cores, and the energy contained inside them was also much more filling than beast cores.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in relief after they managed to defeat all of the golden armored puppets.
The strength of those golden armored puppets was actually far from weak, but their biggest reliance was their battle formation.
Little Loki''s [Instant Teleportation] which allowed it to appear anywhere nearby in an instant was clearly the nemesis of almost all battle formation.
Once Little Loki appeared in the center or the rear of the battle formation and used its [Heaven''s Devour] to sweep all nearby enemies cleanly, any battle formation would definitely be doomed to fall apart sooner orter.
Just like Meng Yue had said before: ''Space is the king of all elementals, but Time is supreme among all''.
It was not wrong at all.
Even Little Loki''s [Instant Teleportation] which was the simplest application of Space elemental discement could give great headache to most of its foes.
"Let''s go, Little Kitten~! We have to explore this ce first to see if the precious treasures with star energies are really stored here." The perfect copy said nonchntly to Little Loki.
Who knew that Little Loki suddenly used its [Instant Teleportation] to suddenly appear right above the perfect copy''s head and pped her head with its paw while angrily meowing: "Nyaaaw Meeww~! (Don''t call me Little Kitten~!)
"Ouch~! You Little Kitten, how dare you p my head?!" The perfect copy angrily shouted as she waved her hands to catch Little Loki.
But Little Loki had used its [Instant Teleportation] again to keep its distance from the perfect copy and quickly ran away from her.
.....
When the perfect copy and Little Loki were deepening their rtionship by ying hide and seek, Tang Li Xue and Yaya finally reached the location of the treasure on the first floor.
Tang Li Xue swiped her ck [Sword of Disaster] downward as dozens of dried corpses she cut with her [Sword of Disaster] littered on the ground.
Tang Li Xue took a few more steps forward and stood in front of the wooden door with Yaya sitting leisurely on her left shoulder like always.
She read the signboard above the wooden door while frowning deeply: "Garden of Eternal Harmony? This also does not seem to be the ce to store the treasures..."
"Sigh... So, the ce to store treasures is on the second floor? Let''s quickly check this ce for a moment. Who knew that the treasures with star energies are really stored here." Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment, but she still held a little bit of hope as she pushed open the wooden door.
When she stepped into the room behind the wooden door, she actually entered a gorgeous room filled with beautiful and luxurious decorations.
With one nce, Tang Li Xue could easily guess that the one who lived in this gorgeous room should hold a very important position in this Medicine Garden Pce.
Tang Li Xue''s expectation to find precious treasures with star energies in this room arose once again.
However, just when Tang Li Xue looked around the gorgeous room carefully with Yaya, she immediately saw a beautifuldy wearing a fancy red dress sitting cross-legged on the jade bed.
Somehow, Tang Li Xue''s heart was throbbing violently when she saw the figure of this beautifuldy as she suddenly had a really bad hunch about this one.
"Is she still alive?! No way, right?" Tang Li Xue muttered in a doubtful tone.
But the beautifuldy wearing a fancy red dress suddenly opened her eyes as if she were ring at Tang Li Xue!
The eyes of this beautifuldy were actually hollow, but it only made her even look more scary!
"Holy cow~!" Tang Li Xue jumped back in shock, and even Yaya hastily hugged Tang Li Xue''s neck in fright.
"SCREEEAAAAAAKKK~!"
The beautifuldy in a fancy red dress let out an earth-
shattering scream all of a sudden as a terrifyingly powerful aura burst from her body!
Even Tang Li Xue and Yaya held their heads as they instantly felt unbearable headaches and dizziness because of the beautifuldy''s earth-shattering scream!
Tang Li Xue and Yaya even felt as if their souls were almost flying out from their bodies because of it.
The beautifuldy swiftly shed forward toward Tang Li Xue and forcefully grabbed Tang Li Xue''s neck!
The unprepared Tang Li Xue felt very suffocated, and the beautifuldy''s powerful grip on her neck became tighter and tighter!
Surprisingly, the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress was a Nascent Soul Stage Expert!
Moreover, it was an ordinary low-level Nascent Soul Stage Expert, but she was already at the great perfection of Nascent Soul Stage and only one step away from the next cultivation realm!
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (2/3)]
Tang Li Xue''s neck was almost crushed by the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress, and she even nned to tear off Tang Li Xue''s head from her neck!
Tang Li Xue hastily bit her tongue in order to force herself to wake up from the unbearable headaches and dizziness.
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (1/3)]
In only one breath of time, the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress could already killed Tang Li Xue twice if not for her [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protections!
Yaya nned to attack the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress in anger, but Tang Li Xue that already be sober hastily put Yaya into her System''s pet space and activated her [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy!
Before the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress could kill her perfect copy too, Tang Li Xue quickly used her [Twin Moons] divine ability to re-summon her perfect copy to her side.
"Damn it~! What the hell is that monstrous thing?! Is that also a corpse or a genuine living person?!" The perfect copy muttered in a lingering fear.
"Cough, cough, cough..." Tang Li Xue was still panting and coughing heavily while sitting weakly on the floor because she was strangled so tightly by that beautifuldy in the fancy red dress just now.
Little Loki stopped running around yfully and approached Tang Li Xue with a worried expression.
Tang Li Xue took a water bag and drank a few gulps to calm down herself.
She also patted Little Loki''s tiny furry head gently while saying tofort it: "Thank you, Little Loki, but I am fine."
Tang Li Xue also released Yaya again from her System''s pet space and checked Yaya''s condition worriedly.
She only sighed in relief after making sure that Yaya was all right.
Chapter 820 820: Re-Encounter!
Chapter 820 Chapter 820: Re-Encounter!
Tang Li Xue sat cross-legged on the floor and put her smooth palm on her chin while frowning deeply.
Little Loki jumped onto Tang Li Xue''sp andy downzily while Yayanded on Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder and sat leisurely there.
"That scary woman is surely troublesome. I can only hope she cannot get out of that room and look for us." Tang Li Xue muttered in a tone filled with worry while petting Little Loki''s tiny furry body until it purredfortably.
"So, what is our next n? Should we try to check if the treasures with star energy are really in that luxurious room, or should we just skip it and go straight to check the second floor instead?" The perfect copy sat across Tang Li Xue and curiously asked.
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead with her slender fingers and bit her pink lips while pondering their next moves carefully for a few moments.
"I think we should still split into two teams, so if we bump into that scary woman again on our way, we can easily run away from her like before." Tang Li Xue concluded.
Even if her perfect copy bumped into that beautifuldy in a fancy red dresster, Tang Li Xue only needed to re-summon her perfect copy to her side easily.
In short, Tang Li Xue nned to use their usual old ''[Swap] and re-summon'' trick to y hide and seek with the beautifuldy in a fancy red dress until they managed to find the precious treasures with star energy.
Tang Li Xue stood up while telling the others about her n: "All right, then the teamposition will be the same as before. I and Yaya will explore the second floor, while you and Little Loki will try to check the luxurious room on the first floor again to see if that scary woman is still inside that room."
The perfect copy frowned in displeasure andined: "Why does it have to be me?! Can we just exchange the task?! I do not want to see that scary woman! And why the heck do you always give me the most dangerous and difficult task?!"
Tang Li Xue smiled beautifully and patted her perfect copy''s shoulder while saying in an encouraging tone and giving her a thumbs up: "Because I believe you can do it~! I believe you can surpass my expectations, go beyond it, and plus ultra~!"
The perfect copy''s pink lips twitched when she saw Tang Li Xue''s thick-faced shamelessness.
However, the perfect copy only rolled her topaz blue eyes disdainfully since she was toozy to argue back and forth with Tang Li Xue while they were still under the huge threat of that scary woman in a fancy red dress.
Tang Li Xue immediately brought Yaya and quickly went on a split way with her perfect copy and Little Loki because that scary woman could find them anytime, so it would be much safer for them to split up as soon as possible.
After using the [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy before she re-summoned her perfect copy back to her side, both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were currently in the basement.
This Medicine Garden Pce was very big, so Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy believed that there should be more than one way for them to head upstairs to the first and second floors.
After Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy went in two different directions, both of them activated their [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turnpletely invisible and undetectable.
But despite that, they were still attacked by the groups of dried corpses they encountered on their way.
Even they still had no clue why those dried corpses could still sense or detect them after they activated their [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment].
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy had already gotten sick of fighting these dried corpses, but it seemed they had no choice other than to defeat all the dried corpses that attacked them on their way.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy even tried if they could pass through the walls or ceiling in their [Ethereal Form], but itpletely failed since this entire Medicine Garden Pce should be shrouded by a protective formation.
Tang Li Xue even wondered if she could create a giant heavy hammer with her [Energy Maniption] and use it to make a hole in the ceiling, but she quickly shook her head to deny that idea since it might make this entire Medicine Garden Pcepletely copse.
She clearly could not take that risk before she could find the precious treasures with star energies in this Medicine Garden Pce.
Without any way of cheating, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could only look for some ways to head toward the first and second floors honestly.
After defeating dozens of dried corpses with Yaya''s help, Tang Li Xue was the first one who found the stairs heading to the first floor.
When Tang Li Xue and Yaya stepped back onto the first floor, they immediately raised their vignce to the maximum since there was a very high chance that the scary woman in a fancy red dress should be still on the first floor.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya carefully wandered around the first floor in order to find the stairs heading to the second floor while defeating the dried corpses that were attacking them on their way.
Who knew that Tang Li Xue and Yaya had pretty good luck, but it was her perfect copy and Little Loki who had bad luck this time?!
.....
The dried corpses in neat formation suddenly unleashed a rain of spells toward the perfect copy and Little Loki.
The perfect copy activated her [Reflective Barrier] without any hesitation while Little Loki used its [Instant Teleportation] to avoid their spells.
The rain of spells flew back toward the dried corpses after they collided with the perfect copy''s [Reflective Barrier].
While the dried corpses were busily trying to defend themselves against their own spells that got reflected back by the perfect copy''s [Reflective Barrier], Little Loki suddenly appeared right behind them as it activated its [Phantom Splitters] to split into ten identical figures.
[sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Little Loki and its clones easily decimated all of the dried corpses as if they were cutting the melons and vegetables.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not even need to do anything to help.
"Oh, there are stairs over there~! Let''s go Little Kitten~!" The perfect copy happily pointed her finger at the stairs dozens of meters from them.
Little Loki angrily red at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy when it heard she called it Little Kitten again.
Little Loki harrumphed in rage as it left the perfect copy behind and ran alone toward the stairs.
But Little Loki suddenly halted its step right before it stepped onto the stairs.
When the perfect copy saw Little Loki with its furs and tails erected, she immediately felt that something was wrong she quickly hastened her steps toward Little Loki while asking in a teasing tone: "What is wrong, Little Kitten? Do you want to take a pee-pee?"
However, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy abruptly caught a glimpse of something red above the stairs!
Before Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could even have any time to react...
"SCREEEAAAAAAKKK~!"
The beautifuldy in a fancy red dress already let out her earth-
shattering shrill scream while rushing forward swiftly toward the perfect copy!
The perfect copy fell into unbearable headache and dizziness as if her head was struck by a heavy hammer because of the scarydy''s shrill scream!
Just when the scarydy''s sharp ws almost reached the perfect copy''s neck, Little Loki already jumped and headbutted the perfect copy''s waist from the right side!
The staggered perfect copy fell down onto the ground, but thanks to that, she was saved from the scarydy''s ws!
Little Loki might also feel headache and dizziness because of the scarydy''s shrill scream, but the effect was much milder than what Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy felt thus it could still push Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy away to save her from the scarydy''s attack.
However, the scarydy in the fancy red dress clearly would not give up just like that, so she threw a powerful kick at Little Loki instead!
BAAAAANGG~!
Little Loki''s tiny furry head was broken apart in an instant by the scarydy''s powerful kick!
The scarydy in the fancy red dress has the cultivation at the great perfection of Nascent Soul Stage, so her strength was unimaginably powerful!
How could Little Loki in its tiny kitten form withstand the full-
powered kick from that scarydy in the fancy red dress?!
But who knew that Little Loki''s tiny furry figure actually turned into a clump of ck smoke and reformed back to theplete Little Loki in a second?!
Yes, that Little Loki was clearly not a real one, but only one of its [Phantom Splitter]''s clones!
Chapter 821 821: Last Hurdle!
Chapter 821 Chapter 821: Last Hurdle!
Ten Little Lokis surrounded the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress from all directions, and they began to bombard her with [Scythe w Qi] from more than ten meters away!
However, the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress only swung her hand to disperse all of [Scythe w Qi] that flew at her!
Then the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress threw a swift spear hand thrust toward the perfect copy''s throat who was still lying down dizzily on the floor!
BAAAAANG~!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (2/3)]
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in rage as she immediately shouted to her perfect copy through their mind connection: "What are you doing, you idiot?! Get away from that scary woman quickly so I can [Swap] with you to take Little Loki away from that ce!"
Yes, Tang Li Xue could actually un-summon her perfect copy, but Little Loki would be left behind alone to face that beautifuldy in the fancy red dress.
But she clearly did not want to get tortured by the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress as soon as she used [Swap] to exchange location with her perfect copy, so she could only hope that her perfect copy could at least keep her distance from that red-dresseddy first.
After the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress realized that her spear hand thrust failed to finish off Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, she nned to throw a more lethal attack toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but Little Loki clearly would not let her do it without doing anything.
Nine Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitter] Clones activated [Instant Teleportation] to appear right above the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress!
[sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi]~!
The beautifuldy finally put on her battle stance as she made circr movements with her hands.
[Shadow Crane Palm]~!
The beautifuldy did not only dispel nine Little Lokis'' [sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi] easily but all nine Little Lokis exploded into clumps of ck smoke by the energy shooting from the beautifuldy''s palm!
However, the real Little Loki was not among them!
The real Little Loki had actually appeared right below the beautifuldy''s feet!
[Heaven''s Devour]~!
Little Loki opened its tiny mouth widely when the terrifying suction power emerged as if there was a small ck hole inside its tiny mouth!
Who knew that the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress waspletely unaffected, and she still stood steadily right in front of Little Loki as if her feet were stuck and rooted onto the ground?!
The beautifuldy in the fancy red dress used her palm technique again to chop at Little Loki''s tiny furry head!
But the real Tang Li Xue had already used her [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy just one moment ago!
The real Tang Li Xue swiftly grabbed Little Loki and put Little Loki into the space in her Dantian before she activated her [Swap] skill for the second time to exchange location with her perfect copy again!
BOOOOOOM~!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (1/3)]
As a result, it was Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy who received another lethal palm attack from the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress until she was thrown off violently dozens of meters and crashed onto the wall heavily!
Tang Li Xue hastily used her [Twin Moons] divine ability to un-summon her perfect copy, so the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress would no longer be able to attack her perfect copy again.
When Tang Li Xue re-summoned her perfect copy again to her side with her [Twin Moons] divine ability, her perfect copy immediatelyined in a miserable tone: "Why are you un-summon me so slow?! Thatdy is so scary! if not for [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protections, she would have already killed me twice!"
But Tang Li Xue immediately waved her hand to stop her perfect copy''s chatter and said in a solemn expression: "All right, stopining! That scary woman can wander freely around this Medicine Garden Pce is clearly bad news for us.
"I even suspect that scary woman might have some way to detect our location. That might be the reason why she went down to the basement just now. We better split up and move to the second floor as quickly as possible right now." Tang Li Xue told her worst guess to her perfect copy and the others.
They were actually in a much worse situation at this moment since both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy only had one [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection left.
They clearly did not want to bump into the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress for the third time, so they had to move quickly to the second floor and find the location of the treasures with the star energy as soon as possible before thatdy could catch up to them.
Tang Li Xue did not forget to release Little Loki from the space in her Dantian.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy split up again, so they could find the stairs headed to the second floor faster.
Just like before, Tang Li Xue teamed up with Yaya, while her perfect copy teamed up with Little Loki.
Since the dried corpses and the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress could still sense or detect them even after they activated their [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy did not bother to waste their energy to activate them anymore.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy just forcefully mowed down all of the dried corpses that were blocking and attacking them on their way.
This time, their luck was quite good because they immediately found the stairs heading to the second floor in only a few minutes.
The second floor''syout was actually much simpler than the basement and the first floor.
Tang Li Xue immediately understood the purpose of every floor after she explored them carefully until now.
The basement had many training rooms and a huge closed space for Closed Door Meditation or Closed Door Cultivation, so the main purpose should be for practicing.
The first floor had many rooms with a big courtyard which were used for nting precious nts or elixirs, so the main purpose should be for farming.
The second floor had many misceneous rooms such as the library, canteen, kitchen, alchemy room, and so on.
Compared to the basement and the first floor, Tang Li Xue had a hunch that there should be a much higher chance for the location of the treasure room to be on this second floor.
Strangely, the number of dried corpses on the second floor was actually much sparsepared to the basement and the first floor.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply when she realized it.
Any strangeness should have a reasonable cause.
Even the first floor where the scary woman in the red dress resides did not have any strangeness like this second floor.
Unless there was something even more powerful than the scary woman in the red dress residing on this second floor...
Cold sweat soaked Tang Li Xue''s back and forehead when she thought about it, but she quickly shook her head to push away any distracting thought.
"I can only pray that I am worrying too much about it." Tang Li Xue murmured in a solemn tone.
"Yaayaa~!" Yaya patted Tang Li Xue''s cheek with a worried tone when she saw Tang Li Xue''s pale expression.
"Don''t worry, Yaya~! I am all right." Tang Li Xue caressed Yaya''s little head gently while replying in a reassuring tone.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s prayer was bound to be unfulfilled...
After exploring the second floor for more than a quarter of an hour with her perfect copy while cleaning the dried corpses they had met on their way, Tang Li Xue finally almost reached the location of the treasure that was shown on the [Treasure Map].
When Tang Li Xue almost turned at the intersection, she immediately stepped back and hid behind the wall.
"Ya?" Yaya tilted her head cutely and asked Tang Li Xue.
"Shhh~!" Tang Li Xue put her slender finger on her pink lips and signaled Yaya to be quiet.
Then both Tang Li Xue and Yaya slowly peeked from the intersection.
They actually saw an old man with a long beard sitting cross-
legged in front of the double bronze gates.
There was a silver sword on the old man''s thigh. The silver sword was shiny and look very extraordinary.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes felt as if they got pricked when she observed the silver sword on the old man''s thigh.
But thanks to her sharp sight, Tang Li Xue managed to read the words carved on the silver sword''s surface as she muttered unconsciously: "Heaven Edge Sword?"
Tang Li Xue pulled her head back and hid behind the wall at the intersection.
She squatted on the floor while rubbing her forehead in sorrow.
"Sigh, whether that old man or his Sword... Both of them sound like a big trouble for us. s, we are only one step away from the treasure room~!" Tang Li Xuemented in great frustration.
Chapter 822 822: Dangerous Plan!
Chapter 822 Chapter 822: Dangerous n!
Tang Li Xue tried to think hard about how to infiltrate the treasure room without being discovered by the old man, but no matter how hard she thought, she still could not find a way to do it.
"Damn it~! Is there really no way for us to obtain the treasures with star energy in this ce?! I am very unwilling to give up just like that after we havee this far!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in a tone filled with vexation.
However, a light of inspiration suddenly shed in her mind right at this moment!
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone in enlightenment as she muttered: "Wait a minute... I wonder who is stronger between this old man and the previous crazy woman? Err, well... the result does not really matter."
"The main point is that if we can somehow lure the crazy woman here to make this old man busy even only for a while, then we might be able to exploit that chance to sneak into the treasure room and steal away the precious treasures with star energy!" Tang Li Xue stated her n excitedly as a charming smile bloomed on her stunningly beautiful face.
"Hey, hey, hey... You did not n to make me lure that scary woman toe here, right? Just so you know,?it is impossible for me to sessfully do it!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately said herint through their mind connection.
But what Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had just said was the truth.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy already bumped into the scary woman in the fancy red dress twice, but they almost got killed four times in total before they could react or resist that scary woman.
From that, it could easily be seen how big the strength and speed difference between them and the scary woman.
"Don''t worry, I will not let you do it this time. I do not believe that I cannot match that scary woman in terms of speed after I transformed back into my fox form, entered [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya, and activated [Wings of Freedom] buff." Tang Li Xue said in a tone filled with confidence.
If all of those were still not enough, she could even activate the [Merge] skill to fuse with her perfect copy, so her overall stats would be doubled for one hour!
Yes, Tang Li Xue had decided to go all out in order to get the precious treasure containing abundant star energies in this ce!
"But don''t be too happy just yet, you and Little Loki still have another important task to do!" Tang Li Xue warned her perfect copy in a stern tone.
After Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy devised their next n carefully for a while, Tang Li Xue immediately canceled her [Human Transfiguration] and transformed back to her fox form.
Different from Tang Li Xue in her human form which could only use around 30% of her overall stats, Tang Li Xue in her fox form could use 100% of her overall stats. In short, she would be at least three times more powerful and faster than before.
"Let''s go, Yaya~!" Tang Li Xue urged Yaya in an encouraging tone.
"Yayaya Yaya~! (Leave it to me~!)" Yaya pped her transparent fairy wings while patting her tiny chest excitedly.
Yaya''s tiny figure turned into a sh of green light and merged into Tang Li Xue''s body.
*Ding!
[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]
Two pairs of transparent fairy wings appeared on Tang Li Xue''s back.
Tang Li Xue even activated her [Wings of Freedom] and [Wind Guardian Blessing] buffs to increase her speed even further by several times!
*Ding!
[Wings of Freedom] activated! (Increase the effect of Agility stat by five more times and grant Fast Flight buff for 15 minutes duration.)
*Ding!
[Wind Guardian Blessing] activated! (Increase overall speed by 50% and add auto-dodge effect. Duration: 10 seconds.)
The duration of the [Wind Guardian Blessing] might be only 10 seconds, but Yaya or Tang Li Xue only needed to re-activate it again after the duration was run out, so logically, it was almost the same as having a permanent buff... Well, as long as they still had enough energy to continuously use this skill because it consumed quite a lot of their energy.
Tang Li Xue used the [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy who was still on the first floor.
Then Tang Li Xue put Little Loki into her System''s pet space, activated the [Swap] skill again, and released Little Loki on the second floor before [Swap] back again to the first floor.
This way, both her perfect copy and Little Loki were on the second floor near the treasure room right now.
BWOOOOOSSSH~!
Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure turned into a silver sh as she swiftly moved around the first floor to look at the scary woman in the fancy red dress.
It was truly an irony since they were trying so hard to not meet with the scary woman in the fancy red dress again just now, but Tang Li Xue was intentionally searching for her instead right at this moment.
Tang Li Xue was already very familiar with theyout of the first floor, so she could wander around the first floor without getting lost.
All of the dried corpses she met in her way got cut into pieces in an instant before they could even react.
With Tang Li Xue''s current unimaginable speed and powerful strength, those dried corpses no longer had any threat to her.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy did not have enough time to put the tracker from their [Mapping Sense] skill onto the scary woman in the fancy red dress before, if not for that, Tang Li Xue could definitely find her much easier right now.
But that was not a big problem at all since it did not take long for Tang Li Xue to bump again with the scary woman in the fancy red dress!
Tang Li Xue hastily condensed the earplug with her [Energy Maniption]!
"SCREEEAAAAAAKKK~!"
The scary woman in the fancy red dress let out an earth-
shattering scream as a terrifyingly powerful aura burst out from her body!
Despite Tang Li Xue already wearing the ear plug, she still felt dizzy and ufortable because the scary woman''s scream was actually not a sonic attack skill, but it was the skill to target her opponent''s mind and consciousness.
The scary woman swiftly took this chance to sh toward Tang Li Xue in an instant!
The speed of the scary woman was truly terrifying since she could close the distance of more than a hundred meters in only a blink of an eye!
Tang Li Xue had [Sun and Moon Aegis] and her dual powerful bloodlines, so she could recover very quickly from any negative status such as dizziness, but the scary woman''s speed was clearly so much faster than Tang Li Xue''s negative status recovery ability.
That was the reason why Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could get beaten so badly and almost get killed several times by this scary woman before.
When the scary woman in the fancy red dress unleashed a swift spear hand thrust toward Tang Li Xue''s furry head, Tang Li Xue suddenly tilted her furry head to the right side in reflex which made the scary woman''s attack miss!
This was actually the auto-dodge effect from Yaya''s [Wind Guardian Blessing]!
Of course, this auto-dodge effect was not omnipotent. If the opponent''s attack speed was much higher than Tang Li Xue''s speed, the opponent''s attack would still hit Tang Li Xue in the end.
But the point was Tang Li Xue''s current speed was clearly higher than the scary woman right now!
After Tang Li Xue woke up from her dizziness, she saw the scary woman''s face with a pair of hollow eyes so close to her snout, so she hastily used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step ] plus [Breezing Step] to keep her distance from the scary woman.
"Ugyaaah~! You look so scary and ugly, so could you please stay away a bit from me?! Oh, and you smell so stinky like a thousand years rotten fish~!" Tang Li Xue mercilessly mocked the scary woman since her task was to attract the scary woman to the second floor.
Tang Li Xue only nned to try it, but she did not really hope much because she thought how could a zombified corpse like this scary woman understand what she was saying and get angry because of it.
But who knew that the expression of that beautifuldy in the fancy red dress actually distorted as she roared out loud in anger?!
"ROOOOOAAAARRR~!"
"Wow, so it can really work?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise and disbelief.
The distorted angry face of the beautifuldy in the fancy red dress became filled with wrinkles. Her hollow eyes and mouth released ck gas.
Her terrifyingly powerful aura became increasingly terrifying as it locked at Tang Li Xue and tried to suppress her!
Chapter 823 823: Thrilling Chase!
Chapter 823 Chapter 823: Thrilling Chase!
Tang Li Xue instantly felt her body be very heavy?as?if her body became a mountain rooted on the floor.
The scary woman in the fancy red dress shed toward Tang Li Xue once again, and Tang Li Xue''s extremely high speed?was no longer able to?help her get away from the scary woman!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she quickly took something out of her space pouch!
[Amulet of Teleportation]~!
When the scary woman in the fancy red dress stretched out her hand to grab Tang Li Xue, Tang Li Xue suddenly vanished from right in front of her sight!
[Vacuum sh]~!
After she teleported more than a hundred meters away from the scary woman, Tang Li Xue immediately shot [Vacuum sh] toward the?scary?woman!
The scary woman swung the palm of her hand to meet [Vacuum sh] head-on!
[Shadow Crane Palm]~!
ck energy spread out from the scary woman''s palm, and Tang Li Xue''s [Vacuum sh] faded?away?before it could even touch the?scary?woman!
Of course, Tang Li Xue?never expected since the very beginning?that her attack would hurt the scary woman in the fancy red dress.
She only did that to provoke the scary woman''s?anger,?so the?scary?woman would chase after her to the second floor in rage.
Tang Li Xue''s provocation had proven to be super effective since the scary woman was?really?chasing after Tang Li Xue madly as if Tang Li Xue had stolen her money!
Tang Li Xue hastily used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step] to?run away from?the scary woman in the fancy red dress!
Combining her two movement skills with [Wings of Freedom] and [Wind Guardian Blessing] buffs, Tang Li Xue''s current speed could be?said?faster?than even?lightning!
But who knew that the scary woman could?actually?still keep up with her?current?unimaginable speed, and she even faintly close the distance between them bit by bit?!
"Holy cow~! How the heck she can move as fast as me?! Did she have a rocket booster on her legs or something?!" Tang Li Xueined in fright.
At this rate, the scary woman might?really?catch up with Tang Li Xue soon, so Tang Li Xue decided to do something to slow her down!
[Tempest Prison]~!
The?powerful?swirling wind emerged around the scary woman in the fancy red dress!
The?powerful?swirling wind tried to trap her down in the middle, but the ck energy spread on the scary woman''s palm, and she actually forcefully tore apart the swirling wind as if it were made from paper!
The scary woman?easily?solved Tang Li Xue''s [Tempest Prison], but at least she?got?slowed down for a few milliseconds because of it, and Tang Li Xue managed to pull some more distance from the scary woman.
Just when Tang Li Xue?took a sigh of?relief, the scary woman?actually?began to do something unexpected!
The scary woman skillfully controlled her ck energy to condense a dozen ck cones, and under her control, those dozen ck cones flew swiftly toward Tang Li Xue!
"Damn it~! What the heck are those things?!" Tang Li Xue groaned in panic.
Tang Li Xue immediately used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step] to twist her silver furry body?flexibly?and move around irregrly!
She managed to avoid the attacks from those dozen ck cones, and they missed her by a hair''s breadth!
But after those dozen ck cones missed Tang Li Xue, they?actually?formed a barricade right?in front of?her!
Tang Li Xue swiftlyid down and curled up her silver furry body sideways, then let her body slide through a small gap between the barricade of those ck cones!
CRRRSSS~!
One of Tang Li Xue''s silver furry tails still identally grazed those ck cones, and Tang Li Xue felt a burning pain in her tail, but she clearly did not have time to worry about that since the scary woman in the fancy red dress managed to get much closer to her right now!
However, the good news was that Tang Li Xue had finally reached the stairs heading to the second floor!
Before Tang Li Xue climbed up the stairs, a terrifyingly powerful aura burst out from the scary woman and locked at Tang Li Xue again!
Tang Li Xue instantly feltthat her body becameextremely heavylikea Five Finger Mountain pressing on her head!
"SCREEEAAAAAAKKK~!"
Without giving Tang Li Xue enough time to do anything, the scary woman let out an earth-shattering scream to stun Tang Li Xue for a while!
Despite wearing the earplugs condensed from her [Energy Maniption], Tang Li Xue still felt dizzy and ufortable.
Of course, the effect was not as strong as before since Tang Li Xue was not only wearing earplugs right nowbutshe wasalso in her fox form plus [Divine Possession Mode] with Yayawhichincreased her overall stats by more than just three times.
Just when the scary woman almost reached Tang Li Xue, Tang Li Xue suddenly opened her topaz blue eyes and stared mockingly at thescarywoman in the fancy red dress.
"Don''t you ever think... that the same trick would still work against meagain and again~!" Tang Li Xue scolded the scary woman in the fancy red dress with a cold tone.
Then Tang Li Xue unleashed the new divine ability that she had rarely used until now toward the scary woman...
[Ster Banishment]~!
[Ster Banishment]: Borrowing the power of the stars to temporarily banish any target to the empty starry sky. (The duration of the Ster Banishment depends on the difference between thestrength of the userand the target.)
The scary woman was temporarily banished by Tang Li Xuewith her [Ster Banishment], and a ball of dazzling light appeared in her ce.
Without waiting for the scary woman to return, Tang Li Xue quickly activated her other divine ability to get away further from the ball of dazzling light!
[Wind Burst Step]~!
With Tang Li Xue''scurrentunimaginable speed, she wouldcertainlybe even faster if she used [Wind Burst Step], but there were several good reasons why she never used it until now.
But the main reason was because theyout of this Medicine Pce Garden was tooplicated, and if she was not careful in using [Wind Burst Step], she might crash onto the wall or any dried corpses instead.
Anyway, Tang Li Xueactuallydid not want to use [Wind Burst Step] inside this Medicine Pce Garden if she had not been forced by the scary woman until it reached this point.
Just likeTang Li Xue had expected, the scary woman in the fancy red dress managed to break out of the [Ster Banishment] in less than one second.
Thankfully, Tang Li Xuealreadypulled quite some distance between them using [Wind Burst Step], although her snout almost crashed onto the wall just now.
The scary woman looked even angrier after Tang Li Xue banished her with [Ster Banishment], so she was chasing after Tang Li Xue even more desperately than before as if Tang Li Xue had just stolen her husband!
There were still some dried corpses wandering around on their way, but they did not have any time to react at all as Tang Li Xue and the scary woman sprinted past them.
"Hey, is everything ready? That sleeping old man is still guarding in front of the gates, right?" Tang Li Xue asked her perfect copy through their mind connection.
"Don''t worry, everything is ready. Oh, and that old man has not moved even an inch until now." The perfect copy informed Tang Li Xue.
"You better not mess aroundter! Just do it as our n, and we should be able to secure the precious treasures with star energies, but you better do it quickly since I might not be able to hold on for long. We do not even know how strong that old man is?! I am really afraid this scary woman would be beaten by that old man too quickly!" Tang Li Xue doubtfully nagged her perfect copy.
"I know, I know~! You are too fussy like an old grandma! Should I just call you Grandma Tang from now on?!" The perfect copy jokingly replied to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes. She really did not have any mood to respond to her perfect copy''s jokes since the scary woman in the fancy red dress was still chasing after her crazily from behind right now.
The scary woman condensed a dozen ck cones with her ck energy and controlled them to keep harassing Tang Li Xue from time to time in order to slow her down.
Tang Li Xue skillfully kept dodging the attacks from those dozen ck cones with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step].
To be honest, if not for Yaya''s [Wind God''s Eyes] and [Wind Guardian Blessing]''s auto-dodge buff effect, those dozen ck cones might have already hit Tang Li Xue since the very start.
[Wind God''s Eyes]: A pair of eyes blessed by Wind God which are capable of seeing through any kind of movement no matter how fast they are, and predict the next few moves and their trajectories urately.
From the first floor to the second floor, their thrilling chasing action onlysted for one minute or so, but Tang Li Xue felt it had alreadysted for a very long time.
Moreover, the continuous attacks from those dozen ck cones actually managed to slow down Tang Li Xue, and the scary woman in the fancy red dress had already gotten closer and closer to her again.
It might only take a few seconds at most for the scary woman to catch up with Tang Li Xue.
Thankfully, they were already very close to the treasure room which the old man with a silver sword guarding!
Chapter 824 824: Opportunity Amidst Chaos!
Chapter824 824: Opportunity Amidst Chaos!
Tang Li Xue deliberately slowed down her sprinting speed a bit when she almost reached the treasure room to create an illusion as if she had started running out of strength.
The scary woman who was madly chasing Tang Li Xue from behind got closer to Tang Li Xue even more rapidly than before!
The scary woman condensed a dozen ck cones from her ck energy and controlled them skillfully to attack Tang Li Xue from behind again for the umpteen times!
But Tang Li Xue already arrived at the intersection, so she immediately ran to the left side!
The dozen ck cones controlled by the scary woman also turned to the left to chase after Tang Li Xue!
''It is now~!'' Tang Li Xue thought as she rolled over toward the wall.
The dozen ck cones were actually flying toward the old man with a long beard who sat cross-legged in front of the double bronze gates!
Just as those dozen ck cones almost reached the old man, the time seemed to slow down as the old man slowly opened his eyes!
Different from the scary woman who had a pair of terrifying hollow ck eyes, the old man had a pair of deep crimson eyes as if his eyes were dyed with his own blood!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Those dozen ck cones were suddenly cut into tiny pieces, and they dispersed back into ck energy.
The old man stood up steadily while holding his Heaven Edge Sword tightly in his hand.
Even with her [Wind God''s Eyes], Tang Li Xue only managed to see the silvery light sh extremely swiftly when the old man swung his Heaven Edge Sword to cut those dozen ck cones.
It was not because [Wind God''s Eyes] could not see the old man''s sword movements, but because even with Tang Li Xue''s current unimaginable speed, her mind was still incapable of seeing through and processing the old man''s sword movements.
Right at this time, the scary woman in the fancy red dress also turned at the intersection, so there were three people... or rather three creatures to be more exact that were in front of the treasure room.
Tang Li Xue, scary woman in the fancy red dress, and the old man holding his Heaven Edge Sword...
Tang Li Xue who currently stood between the scary woman and the old man felt the most suffocated by their terrifyingly powerful aura.
Cold sweat soaked Tang Li Xue''s forehead and back as she felt really nervous and fearful.
Tang Li Xue was actually secretly gambling at this moment...
She was gambling that the scary woman in the fancy red dress and the old man with Heaven Edge Sword were notrades-in-arms.
Well, if they were on the same side, and they began to work together to fight against her instead, then Tang Li Xue could only give up and activate her [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy to escape from them.
Who knew that the scary woman in the fancy red dresspletely ignored the old man and rushed swiftly toward Tang Li Xue?!
"Damn it~! This rotten smelly woman still focuses on me even at a time like this?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger as she hastily used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step] to keep her distance from the scary woman.
Thus both Tang Li Xue and the scary woman moved swiftly closer toward the old man and the double bronze gates instead!
The old man muttered stutteredly: "My task... Guarding the room... Intruders... Die~!"
The old man swung the Heaven Edge Sword in his grasp once again!
Tang Li Xue could only see silver light flickering rapidly. She did not even have any time to react as the sword''s energy wave struck her furry body!
BAAAAANG~!
Thankfully, Tang Li Xue had already expected an incident like this would happen since the very start, so she had secretly taken out the [Vajra Protection Amulet] from her space pouch when she turned at the intersection just now!
A transparent barrier emerged to protect Tang Li Xue''s whole body and the extremely powerful sword''s energy wave struck the transparent barrier instead!
The [Vajra Protection Amulet]''s barrier managed to block the extremely powerful sword''s energy wave, but Tang Li Xue''s furry body was still thrown off uncontrobly and crashed onto the wall behind her heavily!
The wall was protected with a solid protective formation, so it was stillpletely unscathed, but Tang Li Xue felt as if all the bones in her body were shattered because of the heavy collision with the wall.
The fate of the scary woman in the fancy red dress was much worse than Tang Li Xue''s fate.
The old man''s sword energy wave managed to cut the scary woman''s body from her right shoulder to her left waist! N?v(el)B\\jnn
But when the scary woman''s upper body almost slipped from her lower body and fell down to the ground, the thick ck energy emerged from the scary woman''s wound!
The scary woman''s upper body actually flew up and attached back to her lower body under the control of the thick ck energy, then the scary woman''s body actually recovered back to normal as if nothing had happened just now.
Even Tang Li Xue almost dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief when she saw that.
"What the heck?! Is that ck energy the super glue or something?! But it does not really matter. The stronger that scary woman is, the better it would be for me. On the contrary, I would be in big trouble if that scary woman could be defeated so easily by that old man." Tang Li Xue murmured in a solemn tone.
After all, Tang Li Xue''s n from the very beginning was to take advantage when the old man was too busy fighting against the scary woman to secretly smuggle her perfect copy and Little Loki into the treasure room.
The scary woman ground her teeth in unbearable rage as she red resentfully at the old man holding the Heaven Edge Sword!
From the scary woman''s perspective, the old man holding the Heaven Edge Sword was actually protecting Tang Li Xue just when she almost caught Tang Li Xue, so she ssified Tang Li Xue and the old man to the same side.
But from the old man''s perspective, both Tang Li Xue and the scary woman in the fancy red dress were the intruders that must be eliminated as soon as possible.
As for Tang Li Xue... Well, of course, she was still waiting patiently for the old man and the scary woman to fight fiercely against each other.
"SCREEEAAAAAAKKK~!"
The scary woman in the fancy red dress let out an earth-shattering scream as the more terrifyingly powerful aura burst out of her body until the ck energy covered her entire body!
The scary woman dashed swiftly toward Tang Li Xue and the old man!
[Shadow Crane Palm]~!
The scary woman swung her slender palm and the ck energy shot out in the form of a giant ck palm!
Tang Li Xue took this chance to take a few steps back closer to the old man.
The old man reacted by shing his silver Heaven Edge Sword to meet head-on against the scary woman''s [Shadow Crane Palm]!
BOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
The sword energy shed violently against the ck energy until they exploded!
Both of their attacks actually negated each other!
The properties of the old man''s sword energy were extremely sharp and prative, while the properties of the scary woman''s ck energy might be able to melt and disperse any other energy or attack.
Tang Li Xue had already seen the strength of the old man''s sword energy and the scary woman''s ck energy, so she did not feel it was strange that their attacks could negate each other.
''''Nice job, rotten smelly woman~! Just keep doing it! Keep pushing that old man, so she will focus more on you!'' Tang Li Xue cunningly thought.
However, the old man''s strong points were clearly not only the strength of his sword energy but also his unparalleled attack speed!
When the scary woman attacked once, the old man could sh his sword more than ten times!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
The old man unleashed dozens of his terrifying sword energy toward the scary woman and Tang Li Xue!
The thick ck energy that was covering the scary woman''s entire body actually acted as a barrier to negate the old man''s terrifying sword energy!
Tang Li Xue had already expected this, so she immediately activated her [Shadow Striders]''s Equipment Skill, [Shadow sh]!
Her target was the double gates'' shadow!
When the old man''s terrifying sword energy almost hit Tang Li Xue, her silver furry figure instantly teleported right in front of the double gates!
Without giving Tang Li Xue the old man any time to react, Tang Li Xue hastily unleashed her strongest attack to push away both the old man and the crazy woman, so they would be distracted for a few moments!
Chapter 825 825: Entering the Treasure Space!
Chapter825 825: Entering the Treasure Space!
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
[Cyclone Storm] plus me of Pride and Golden Sun me~!
[Critical Strikers]''s weapon skill, [Final Strike]~!
BWOOOOOSSSH~!
Tang Li Xue unleashed a huge pir of hurricane condensed from countless wind desbined with extremely high-temperature dual mes!
Tang Li Xue no longer cared if this entire Medicine Garden Pce would be strong enough to withstand this most powerful attack of hers or not.
Since she already knew that the treasure room was currently behind her, Tang Li Xue thought it was all right if the other parts of this Medicine Garden Pce copsed as long as the treasure room behind her still remained intact until she found the precious treasures containing abundant star energiester.
The expressions of the old man and the scary woman became very solemn when they saw the huge pir of a burning hurricane moving very rapidly toward them!
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy in her fox form and Little Loki with its nine [Phantom Splitter]''s clones suddenly rushed out from their hiding ce right at the moment Tang Li Xueunched her most powerful attack toward the old man and the scary woman!
In the blink of an eye, there were two Tang Li Xues, ten Little Lokis, the scary woman in a fancy red dress, and the old man holding the Heaven Edge Sword on the battlefield which made the extremely chaotic three-way battlefield became even more chaotic than ever!
To make it worse, the huge pir of a burning hurricane had such a powerful suction force that pulled everything toward it.
The old man stabbed his Heaven Edge Sword deep into the floor while he was holding the handle tightly with both hands to stabilize himself.
The scary woman in a fancy red dress skillfully controlled the ck energy emitting out from his body to form a pair ofrge ck ws, and she made those pair ofrge ck ws stab deeply into the floor.
Countless thin cracks spread around at the ceilings, walls, and floor as the huge pir of burning hurricane engulfed everything around it without exception!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The ceilings, walls, and floor began to crumble apart by the destructive power of the huge burning hurricane!
The old man and the scary woman might be able to hold for a few moments, but the huge pir of the burning hurricane was moving toward them after all, so their figures immediately swallowed it!
Even Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and ten Little Lokis were not spared, and they were also got sucked by the burning hurricane!
But right before they could be swallowed by the burning hurricane, Tang Li Xue immediately activated her [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy, while the real Little Loki hastily activated its [Instant Teleportation] to appear right in front of the gates of treasure room!
"I am counting on you two to find the treasures with star energy inside that treasure room, but you two better do it as quickly as possible since I may not be able to hold these two monsters for long!" Tang Li Xue whispered to her perfect copy and Little Loki through their mind connection.
Little Loki''s presence was extremely crucial to quickly finding the treasures with star energy since Little Loki could track them easily with its sense of smell just like what it did in the Gu Family''s mansion before.
However, Little Loki clearly had an incurable disease called insatiable greed.
If Tang Li Xue let Little Loki enter the treasure room alone to find the treasures with star energy for her, it would definitely devour everything else first before it get out from the treasure room, and it could even identally fall asleep to digest them inside the treasure room just like what it did in the Gu Family''s treasure warehouse previously.
Thus Tang Li Xue decided to dispatch her perfect copy to supervise Little Loki in the end.
Right at this moment, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy put her paws on the double bronze gates and forcefully pushed it open with all of her strength!
The double bronze gates might be locked with several mechanisms and formations, but they were pretty much already worn out, so Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could break them open with her strength.
Little Loki impatiently rushed to enter the treasure room through the small gap on the double bronze gates opened by Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy also quickly chased after Little Loki closely from behind to enter the treasure room.
The perfect copy did not open the bronze gates widely. She only opened a small gap, so it was barely enough for her and Little Loki to enter the treasure room.
Contrary to the perfect copy''s expectation, the inside of the treasure room was not like a dark and cramped warehouse to store the treasures at all.
The interior of the treasure room was actually another paradise-like space with so many precious nts, herbs, and flowers nted inside it.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy even saw dozens of living ginsengs and flowers who were running around and chasing each other yfully.
But Little Loki suddenly appeared right in front of them using [Instant Teleportation] and unleashed its [Heaven''s Devour]!
Those dozens of yful living ginsengs and flowers were sucked into Little Loki and swallowed by it in a blink of an eye!
Little Loki licked its lips with its eyes closed while savoring the delicious taste of the rare delicacies it had just eaten.
The perfect copy''s mouth twitched violently when she saw Little Loki''s viin-like behavior.
"You can sweep and eat all of them cleanlyter. Now, we must find the treasures with star energy first!" The perfect copy urged Little Loki with a stern tone.
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy clearly could not feel relieved as long as the precious treasures containing star energies were not in their hands yet.
They had already been impatiently waiting to evolve into the [Rare]-Grade Beast since the Foxes Hunting Festival, and this secret realm might be their only chance to evolve quickly into the [Rare]-Grade Beast.
"Nyaaa~! (I get it~!)" Little Loki annoyedly red at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, but she still obediently replied to her since it also understood how important the precious treasures containing star energies were for Tang Li Xue.
Little Loki''s nose began to twitch as it tried to sniff the smell of the treasures with the star energy.
To be honest, it was truly hard for Little Loki to not get distracted since it smelled so many delicious things in this treasure space, but it resisted the urge to ''enjoy'' them and began to lead Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy toward the location of the treasures with the star energy.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy quickly followed Little Loki closely from behind as they headed deeper into the corner of the treasure space.
.....
Meanwhile, the battle outside the treasure room became much fiercer than before!
Tang Li Xue, the old man, and the scary woman got sucked into the huge burning hurricane, but Tang Li Xue herself was not get hurt by the huge burning hurricane at all since the countless wind des and the dual mes were under her control.
SHRRIINNGG~!
But in the midst of the huge burning hurricane, Tang Li Xue heard the sound of the metal ringing!
"No way, right?! Does that old man really n to..." Before Tang Li Xue could finish her words, she saw an incredible scene right with her own topaz blue eyes. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
The old man actually cut the huge burning hurricane in two!
The previous ringing sound was the old man umting sword energy in his Heaven Edge Sword before he shed his sword down!
"Holy cow~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock and disbelief.
But the incredibly sharp sword energy unleashed by the old man did not stop until that!
The extremely powerful sword energy flew forward shing mercilessly at the scary woman and Tang Li Xue!
PUFF~! PUFF~!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (0/3)]
Tang Li Xue''sst deadly blow protection was finally used up to block the old man''s extremely powerful sword energy.
The fate of the scary woman in the fact red dress was not as good as Tang Li Xue''s since his ck energy barrier was clearly not as good as Tang Li Xue''s deadly blow protection from [Sun And Moon Aegis].
She got split in two by the old man''s sword energy!
However, the ck energy inside the scary woman''s body immediately pulled the scary woman''s body that was already cut in two and glued them together again!
CLAAAANG~!
Even the double bronze gates and the walls behind Tang Li Xue got split into two by the old man''s sword energy!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The surrounding walls fell apart and the incision surface was smooth like a mirror surface.
This showed clearly how powerful this old man''s sword technique was!
Even the scary woman who had the strength of the great perfection of Nascent Soul Stage should have been killed easily twice by the old man if not for her strange ck energy and living corse characteristic.
Tang Li Xue nervously gulped her saliva as she stared frightfully at the menacing old man with the Heaven Edge Sword in his grasp.
Chapter 826 826: Even More Terrifying Foe!
Chapter 826 826: Even More Terrifying Foe!
??The scary woman in the fancy red dress ground her teeth in unbearable anger as she red resentfully at the old man holding the Heaven Edge Sword.
"GRAAAARRR~!" The scary woman roared full of rage as her ck energy exploded out from her body.
When the scary woman in the fancy red dress wanted to pounce toward the old man to tear him apart and the old man was already taking his battle stance to fight against the scary woman, the entire corridor suddenly shook greatly!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
"Damn it~! This entire corridor cannot hold on anymore!" Tang Li Xue angrily cursed as she decided to retreat into the treasure space behind the double bronze gates that had been cut by the old man''s extremely powerful sword energy just now.
The surrounding walls, floor, and ceiling of the corridor began to crumble apart!
The old man and the scary woman staggered as they immediately halted their fight and hastily jumped into the treasure space too!
There was a flying prohibition formation in this entire secret realm, so no one could fly. If they did not retreat into the treasure space, they would fall into the first floor and might even be buried under the rubble.
Of course, the old man and the scary woman would not die just because of it, but the old man was obsessed with his task to guard the treasure space, so he definitely would not let anyone who intruded into the treasure space remain alive, while the scary woman had wanted to tear Tang Li Xue and the old man apart in anger since long ago.
In short, the three of them had their own objectives, and they would never give up until their own objectives were fulfilled.
Tang Li Xue wanted to just let the old man and the scary woman to just fall onto the first floor, so she could buy more time for her perfect copy and for Little Loki to find the treasures with star energy, so she quickly made her moves!
[Mother Earth''s Gift], [Earth Protection Wall]~!
With subtle earth control from [Mother Earth''s Gift] divine ability, Tang Li Xue easily created a solid stone wall to block the entrance of the treasure space!
CLANG~! BANG~!
Unfortunately, the old man easily cut the solid stone wall with his Heaven Edge Sword like a block of tofu, while the scary woman made her ck energy into the form of a giant w, and she also easily broke the solid stone wall in one hit.
"Sigh, I know it would be useless, but at least I have already tried my best, right?" Tang Li Xue muttered while sighing in frustration.
"ROOOAAAAARR~!"
Right after the old man and the scary womannded inside the treasure space, the scary woman madly dashed toward the old man and condensed her ck energy into dozens of dreadful ck demon ws!
The Heaven Edge Sword in the old man''s grasp flickered several times in an instant, and the scary woman including the dozens of dreadful ck demon ws was cut by the terrifyingly sharp sword energy!
Even though Tang Li Xue did not jump in and join the battle yet, the old man still did not seem to forget her at all!
When her [Extrasensory Perception] sensed the life-threatening dangering from the old man, the extremely powerful sword energy had already struck her silver furry body without even giving her any time to react!
-------------------------------
*Ding!
[Detecting Host is in critical life-threatening condition. (Damage Transfer) skill automatically activated and transferred all of your injuries and the damages you received to the perfect copy!]
-------------------------------
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (0/3)]
-------------------------------
Despite the life-threatening attack she received having been nullified, Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body was still thrown off more than fifty meters uncontrobly!
"Oh, damn... This old man is an outrageously powerful monster. He clearly far outsses me and even that scary woman! My dear perfect copy and Little Loki, can you two please move quicker to find those treasures with star energy?! I cannot hold on for much longer!" Tang Li Xue moaned in panic and frustration at her perfect copy through their mental connection.
Her perfect copy hurriedly replied in a reluctant tone: "I have a good news and a bad news for you. Which one do you want to hear first?"
"Tell me the good news first, I do not want to hear any more bad news at this time..." Tang Li Xue sighed.
"The good news is... We have already found the precious treasures containing abundant star energy that you have been looking for." The perfect copy exined.
"Really?! Then what are you waiting for?! Take all of them quickly, so we can get out of this ce and run away from this old man as soon as possible!" Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brightly as she urged in an excited tone.
"Well, we also want to do just like you said, but the bad news is... There is also an outrageously powerful monster that guarding these precious treasures containing abundant star energy!" The perfect copy replied in a frustrated and helpless tone. .....
The time went back a few minutes ago when Little Loki led Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy deeper into the corner of the treasure space.
The nts and elixirs nted deeper in the treasure space were actually more precious than what had already been seen on the periphery of the treasure space.
Little Loki drooled like a broken faucet when it saw them.
Not to mention Little Loki, even the eyes of perfect copy were shining brightly like a pair when she stared at them.
She secretly wondered how many EXP she could get and how many divine abilities she could awaken if she consumed all of these precious nts and elixirs!
But her rationale still warned her about her first priority, so she could only grit her fangs and ignore them for now.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy became more and more looking forward to finding the treasures with star energy in this treasure space.
Since the nts or elixirs with star energy were nted in the deepest part of the treasure space, then they should be much more precious beyond her imagination!
"Come on, Little Loki~! You can eat them allter! Let''s go find the treasures with star energy first, okay~?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy coaxed Little Loki again.
Little Loki wiped its drool with its paw as it hastened its step toward the deepest part of the treasure space.
After a few minutes, Little Loki and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy finally saw a tall shining Bodhi Tree.
Its tree trunk was brilliantly colorful like the Milky Way.
All of the tree leaves were ck like the universe, but there were countless bright spots around the tree like stars.
"Wow, so beautiful~! What tree is this?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in amazement as she activated her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to check the tree.
-------------------------------
[Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]
[Description: The enlightened Bodhi Tree that started its road of immortal cultivation by absorbing star energy. Every 10,000 years, this Bodhi Tree will give birth to Radiant Star Fruit.]
-------------------------------
"Radiant Star Fruit?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered in astonishment as she began to observe the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] carefully.
The perfect copy immediately noticed several fist-sized glowing fruits with different colors like the stars in the night sky.
"One, two, three... five, six...Nine?! There are nine Radiant Star Fruit~! Hahaha, not bad~! I wonder if these Radiant Star Fruit would be enough for me... or rather my real self to evolve into [Rare] Grade beast?" The perfect copyughed delightfully as she hastily ran closer toward the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree].
Little Loki also did not want to be left behind as it quickly ran alongside Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy.
But before they could reach a hundred meters from the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Little Loki were actually pressed to the ground by the unbearably terrifying pressure!
But Little Loki quickly used its [Instant Teleportation] to get away further out from the radius of the unbearably terrifying pressure!
"ROOOOOOONG~!"
A humanoid face suddenly emerged on the trunk of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree], and it let out a strange earth-shattering angry sound!
Even though Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was already in her fox form, she was still bleeding profusely from her seven orifices because of the unbearably terrifying pressure and earth-
shattering angry scream!
Right at this time, the real Tang Li Xue sent the message to urge her, so the perfect copy replied honestly to the real Tang Li Xue.
In short, the perfect copy wanted to say that her current situation might be worse than the real Tang Li Xue right now!
At least, the real Tang Li Xue still has the unkible scary woman to help her fight against the old man, but the perfect copy did not have anyone to help her fight against this Bodhi Tree Monster.
As for Little Loki, the perfect copy had alreadybeled it as the most unreliablepanion after it retreated alone using its [Instant Teleportation].
Chapter 827 827: Critical Choice!
Chapter 827 827: Critical Choice!
??Right before Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was crushed to death by the overwhelming pressure emitted by the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree], Little Loki who had already transformed to its Battle Form suddenly appeared right beside Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy by using its [Instant Teleportation]!
While trying its hardest to resist the overwhelming pressure, Little Loki hastily kicked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy out of the radius of the terrifying pressure with its hind leg!
"No, Little Loki~! You should quickly get out from..." The perfect copy shouted in a worried tone, but before she could finish her words...
BAAAANG~!
Little Loki was crushed to dust by the overwhelming pressure!
"NOOOOO~! Little Loki~! Sob, sob... How could you sacrifice yourself to save me?! I am really sorry, Little Loki... I should not have mocked you by saying you are the most unreliablepanion..." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy cried sorrowfully.
But she suddenly heard a snort filled with displeasure right from behind her.
When she turned her furry head around, her gaze met with Little Loki''s unhappy stare.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "....."
Yes, Little Loki who got crushed to dust by the terrifying pressure was actually only one of its [Phantom Splitter]''s clones.
"Ahahaha, thankfully, you are all right, Little Loki... Cough, okay... This [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] is actually extremely powerful. Our biggest problem right now is how can we take all of its fruits if we already faced so much trouble just to approach it?" The perfect copy awkwardlyughed and coughed before she asked in a solemn expression to cover her shame.
Little Loki also frowned deeply in worry.
Previously, Little Loki''s n was not only to use its [Phantom Splitter]''s clone to save Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy but also to probe the strength of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree].
Who knew that its [Phantom Splitter]''s clone in the Battle Form would still get crushed before it could even have a chance to get close to the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]?!
Little Loki thought its [Phantom Splitter]''s clone would be able to withstand the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s terrifying pressure by relying on its shiny ck armor-like hard scales and three-meter-tall tiger-like robust body, but its guess waspletely wrong.
Little Loki immediately understood that it too far underestimated the might of this [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree].
The [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] had conceived nine Radiant Star Fruits, so it meant that it had already been in cultivation nonstop for more than 90,000 years.
Even the most untalented and stupid person could probably have cultivation that surpasses Nascent Soul Stage if they cultivated for more than 90,000 years, right?
In the legend, it had also been said that any carp and snake could transform into a dragon if they had 100,000 years of cultivation.
The cultivation of this [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] might probably not be far from 100,000 years, so it was not strange that it was so outrageously powerful.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy began to regret their greedy choice to look for the most precious treasures containing star energy that showed in the [Treasure Map].
They had even forgotten the most basicw...
''The more precious the treasure is, the higher the dangers they have to face in order to obtain it.''
Unfortunately, it had been far toote for them to regret it right now.
Since Tang Li Xue had already gone this far and even spent so much effort to reach this far, she was really unwilling to give up just like that, especially since her targets were already right in front of her eyes!
.....
Tang Li Xue was currently still locked in the three-way battle against the old man and the scary woman.
Of course, she could use her [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy at any time, but it was futile even if she did it since she still had no way to approach the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] and plucking its Radiant Star Fruits.
''Damn it~! Is there really no way for me to get those Radiant Star Fruits?!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in frustration and unwillingness.
Before she could think of a new n to pluck the Radiant Star Fruits from the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree], the mad scary woman had already charged fearlessly toward the old man!
Tang Li Xue suddenly felt a bad feeling about it, and she also had no more [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection left to protect herself.
[Mother Earth''s Gift], [Earth Protection Wall]~!
[Reflective Barrier]~!
Transparent Protective Barrier condensed from [Energy Maniption]~!
[Hurricane Barrier]~! Tang Li Xue hastily set the fouryers of defense to protect herself!
The old man got more and more annoyed by the unkible scary woman, he changed his battle stance by lowering his body and putting Heaven Edge Sword closer to his thigh.
The old man''s current battle stance looked like a fast sword-
drawing stance.
When the scary woman''s ck energy almost reached the old man, the old man''s figure suddenly flickered slightly in only a few milliseconds!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
The scary woman''s body was diced into small pieces!
Her [Hurricane Barrier] was split apart easily!
But the old man frowned instead since he could not find Tang Li Xue and sh her to pieces like the scary woman.
Yes, Tang Li Xue actually decided to use [Ster Banishment] to temporarily banish herself to the empty starry sky leaving only a ball of dazzling light in her ce!
Fortunately, her spontaneous reckless decision really saved her life this time.
After the ball of dazzling light dissipated, the temporarily banished Tang Li Xue returned back to her previous location.
Tang Li Xue swallowed her saliva in fright when she saw the scary woman who was diced into countless small pieces.
Strangely, the old woman''s ck energy formed back into a pitch-ck silhouette, and the scary woman''s pieces began to fly back toward the silhouette formed by the ck energy.
It was truly an eerie scene in Tang Li Xue''s opinion.
''This is bad. There is no way I canst for much longer against these two monsters.'' Tang Li Xue thought anxiously.
Then she gnashed her fangs as a glint of madness shed in her topaz blue eyes.
Tang Li Xue swiftly turned around and ran deeper into the treasure space toward the direction of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]!
''Since these two are so powerful and unkible, then let''s see if they are strong enough to make that damn tree overwhelmed~! I hope I can find a chance to plunder its Radiant Star Fruits by then!'' Tang Li Xue insanely thought.
She also knew that her current idea was extremely dangerous and insane, but only by doing this she could have a slight chance to plunder the Radiant Star Fruits from that outrageously powerful tree!
[Wind Guardian Blessing]~!
[Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step]~!
[Wind Burst Step]~!
Without giving the old man and the scary woman any chance to react and stop her, Tang Li Xue immediately activated all of her speed boost skills and [Wind Burst Step] several times in session!
When the old man and the scary woman realized it, Tang Li Xue was already hundreds of meters away from them!
Both the old man and the scary woman seemed to reach a tacit understanding to not let Tang Li Xue run away, so both of them quickly chased after Tang Li Xue in anger.
.....
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately received the information about the real Tang Li Xue''s crazy n.
"What an insane fox you are?! Even if we seed, it would cost all of our life-saving skills. Is it really worth to go that far?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in shock.
"It would be really worth it if we managed to get all of the Radiant Star Fruits! Don''t worry, I have already calcted everything carefully. I am at least 70% sure about it!" Tang Li Xue said confidently.
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes while thinking: "70% is not much, okay?! If we fail, we will all die!''
"All right, I do not have time to hear yourint. You just need to be preparedter!" Tang Li Xue sternly said to her perfect copy.
The perfect copy could only sigh in resignation as she exined Tang Li Xue''s n to Little Loki, then she brought Little Loki to hide themselves nearby before Tang Li Xue brought the old man and the scary woman here.
.....
Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction after she made sure that both the old man and the scary woman were chasing after her toward the location of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree].
Tang Li Xue quickly took out something from her space pouch and used it before the old man and the scary woman could close the distance between them.
[Wind Rush Amulet]~!
Under the effect of [Wind Rush Amulet], Tang Li Xue''s astonishing speed increased many times all of a sudden which makes it impossible for the old man and the scary woman to catch up with Tang Li Xue at least until the duration of the [Wind Rush Amulet] was up!
Tang Li Xue even used her [Wind Burst Step] to increase the distance between then instead!
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to lead the old man and the scary woman until they reached the location of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree].
Chapter 828 828: According To Plan!
Chapter 828 828: ording To n!
??When Tang Li Xue spotted the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] from afar, she deliberately decreased her speed and pretended to look exhausted in order to let the old man and the scary woman slowly catch up to her.
Who knew that the old man and the scary woman immediatelyunched an attack on her from behind just as they managed to get a bit closer to her?!
The scary woman in the fancy red dress condensed dozens of whips from her ck energy and controlled them to flog Tang Li Xue, so her dozens of whips could tie Tang Li Xue and drag Tang Li Xue toward her.
While the silver Heaven Edge Sword in the old man''s grasp flickered as he shed it several times at Tang Li Xue, and several sharp sword energies shot swiftly toward Tang Li Xue from behind!
"Damn it, the distance is still a bit too far, but it seems I have no other choice right now~! Be prepared, our n has begun now~!" Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration as she instructed to her perfect copy.
Just before their attacks could hit Tang Li Xue, she already unleashed her [Ster Banishment] to temporarily banish herself to the empty starry sky leaving only a ball of dazzling light in her ce!
The attacks from the old man and the scary woman werepletely missed since Tang Li Xue was essentially no longer there at this moment.
But both the old man and the scary woman were not stupid. They already understood the effect of [Ster Banishment] was only temporary, and Tang Li Xue woulde back there in a few more seconds after the ball of dazzling light dissipated.
After fighting each other fiercely until this point, both the old man and the scary woman knew that they could not kill each other in a short time, so they decided to kill Tang Li Xue first right now.
"WEEENGGG~!"
The silver Heaven Edge Sword in the old man''s grasp let out a loud ringing sound as he began umting his sword energy, while the scary womanpressed her ck energy to form a pitch-ck javelin!
When the effect of [Ster Banishment] wore off and the ball of dazzling light dissipated, Tang Li Xue instantly returned back to the ce where the ball of dazzling light appeared before!
The old man unleashed all of the sword energy he had umted by shing his silver Heaven Edge Sword, while the pitch-ck javelinpressed from extremely dense ck energy by the scary woman in the fancy red dress flew swiftly toward Tang Li Xue!
"Now~!" After Tang Li Xue came back from the temporary banishment, she instantly activated the [Swap] skill to exchange her location with her perfect copy!
"Damn you, why the heck do you always let me take the most dangerous and scary part?!'' Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy shouted angrily as she activated [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s absolute protection buff without any hesitation!
(Sun And Moon Protection: Grant invulnerability for 2 seconds.)
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM~!
Thanks to 2 seconds of invulnerability buff, the extremely powerful attacks from the old man and the scary woman failed to kill Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
On the contrary, their extremely powerful attacks propelled Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy forward toward the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] with breakneck speed like a cannonball but the speed was many times than any cannonball!
A humanoid face emerged again on the trunk of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] as it watched Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy flying very swiftly toward it!
"ROOOOOOONG~!"
This time, it looked even more annoyed than before, and it let out an earth-shattering angry sound even louder than before!
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy remainedpletely unaffected by it since the 2 seconds of invulnerability buff was not up yet.
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue stared nervously at the old man and the scary woman.
At first, she nned to lead the two of them into the radius of [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] before she executed this n.
Unfortunately, her n clearly could not keep up with the change, so she was forced to execute her n earlier before she could bring the old man and the scary woman closer enough to the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree].
However, Tang Li Xue really hoped that the old man and the scary woman would not get intimidated by the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree], and they would still madly chase after her perfect copy until the end.
Only when the old man and the scary woman could make the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] busy for a while that she would have a chance to steal the Radiant Star Fruits from it.
But Tang Li Xue clearly thought too much about the old man and the scary woman...
If the old man and the scary woman could still think clearly, they would not be fighting against each other since they were definitely the cultivators on duty in this Medicine Garden Pce before they somehow turned into living corpses like now.
They only were following their lingering instinct, so how could they feel any fear or intimidated by the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]?!
Both the old man and the scary woman were madly chasing after Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy again when they saw that she was still alive even after she received their extremely powerful attacks!
"Great~! What a pair of good guys... err, I mean a pair of good corpses? Whatever... Anyway, my turn wille soon. Little Loki, I will be counting on youter, okay?!" Tang Li Xue excitedly said before encouraging Little Loki still in its Battle Form and patted its big scaly tiger-like head.
"GROWL~! ("Leave it to me~!")
Little Loki replied while snuggling its head at Tang Li Xue''s chest. Tang Li Xue nodded and smiled at Little Loki, then she put Little Loki into the Windy Mountain space in her Dantian.
When the old man and the scary woman entered the radius of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s attack, the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] immediately activated its overwhelming crushing pressure!
The sprinting speed of the old man and the scary woman instantly slowed down a lot when every step they took was as heavy as a mountain and left a deep footprint on the ground.
But Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was mercilessly pressed onto the ground by the overwhelming crushing pressure, and she could no longer move even a bit!
The real Tang Li Xue hastily activated her [Swap] skill to exchange her location with her perfect copy!
As a result, it was the real Tang Li Xue who got pressed helplessly onto the ground by the overwhelming crushing pressure instead right now.
But she did not panic at all because everything was still within her calction so far!
The mysterious eye between Tang Li Xue''s eyebrows was opened at this moment!
The mysterious eye was shining with ethereal mysterious light falling onto the eyes of the humanoid face on the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s trunk!
Regalia of Eclipse¡ [Eclipse of Desire]!
([Eclipse of Desire]: locks the target''s mind and soul within their own desire making them unable to return to reality.)
(The power of this ability depends on the user''s Spirit stat and the opponent''s Spirit stat. The duration of this power depends on the target''s attachment to their desire.)
The scene in front of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s eyes was faded away and reced by an ethereal eclipse.
The overwhelming crushing pressure instantly disappeared as the humanoid face on [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] turned nk and soulless.
Tang Li Xue did not dare to rx at all even after she saw her [Regalia of Desire] had worked on the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]!
Tang Li Xue knew that it was impossible for the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s Spirit stat to be lower than her.
On the contrary, its Spirit Stat might be many times higher than her Spirit Stat, and her [Regalia of Desire] could work only because she managed to catch it off guard.
In short, her [Regalia of Desire] would definitely [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]
She hastily took this chance to sprint closer toward the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] at her full speed while releasing Little Loki from her Dantian''s space!
Both the old man and the scary woman were also no longer affected by the overwhelming heavy pressure, so they quickly ran closer toward the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] too.
Both of them were so angry that they nned to tear apart Tang Li Xue and the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] together!
Just when those four almost reached the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree], it actually managed to break out from the effect of Tang Li Xue''s [Regalia of Desire]!
Not only the heavy pressure was pressing back at them, but the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s thick roots had begun to move out from the ground and attack them!
"Little Loki, it is your turn~!" Tang Li Xue urged in an anxious tone.
Little Loki in its Battle Form immediately used its [Heaven''s Devour]!
In that instant, the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s extremely powerful aura which caused the overwhelming heavy pressure was sucked by Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour]!
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when the heavy pressure pressing at her body disappeared again thanks to Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour]!
The old man and the scary woman were not so lucky since they were still a bit far from Little Loki''s position, so the overwhelming heavy pressure was still affecting them!
However, both the old man and the scary woman were much more powerful than Tang Li Xue, so they only got slowed down and not helplessly pressed onto the ground disgracefully like Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy before.
Chapter 829 829: Success!
Chapter 829 829: Sess!
??The [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s roots that were already moved out of the ground began to stab swiftly at the four of them!
The old man and the scary woman easily blocked the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s roots with their sword and ck energy, but Little Loki could not defend itself since it was still continuously using its [Heaven''s Devour] to suck away the overwhelming heavy pressure which targeting it and Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue immediately condensed dozens of white swords with her [Energy Maniption], then she merged andpressed them into one sword.
She even incorporated the most basic array consisting of [Sharp] rune, [Sturdy] rune, and [Energy Channeling] rune which were engraved on the sword''s surface, then imbued it with [Sharp Edge Power] buff to enhance its sharpness further.
Tang Li Xue carefully controlled thepressed white sword to repel the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s roots that kept attacking them relentlessly!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
The whitepressed sword emits golden light because [Sharp Edge Power] buff was dancing swiftly in the air as it kept hitting the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s approaching roots one by one!
But even her whitepressed sword could not cut any of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s roots, and it could only ward them away!
All of [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s roots were many times harder than tempered steel and more flexible than rubber, it was an almost impossible task to cut them with Tang Li Xue''s current strength.
Tang Li Xue could actually add her deep blue me of Pride plus Golden Sun me from her prototype domain into this whitepressed sword. She could even unleash her [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] to burn them away instead of cutting them.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not dare to use any of her me elemental skills or divine abilities against the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree].
If the entire [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] burned down along with all of its Radiant Star Fruits because of her carelessness in using her mes, Tang Li Xue might really cry and have the urge to kill herself with a block of tofu.
When the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] sensed that Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, the old man, and the scary woman were slowly getting closer and closer toward itself, it became even angrier and panicked so it was attacking them even more fiercely.
Not only the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] was whipping and stabbing at them using its roots, but it also began to control its leaves and shot its leaves toward the four of them!
"Damn, this is not looking good at all~!" Tang Li Xue groaned as she condensed a dozen [Compressed Wind Swords] with Yaya''s skill.
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
The previous white sword and a dozen [Compressed Wind Swords] were flying and dancing around Tang Li Xue and Little Loki swiftly as they blocked and repelled away all of the Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s roots and leaves that were attacking them!
Meanwhile, Little Loki was getting more and more exhausted.
Continuously using its [Heaven''s Devour] was clearly draining its energy too rapidly, and it might only be able to push itself to use its [Heaven''s Devour] for a few more seconds at best, but there was still quite some distance between them and the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree].
Even the old man and the scary woman were too busy blocking the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s merciless attacks right now, so she did not have time to fight against each other or pay any attention to Tang Li Xue''s movements.
"ROOOOOOONG~!"
The [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] suddenly let out another earth-shattering angry sound!
But Tang Li Xue had long been prepared, she hastily put Little Loki into her Windy Mountain area in her Dantian and used [Ster Banishment] on herself!
Tang Li Xue temporarily banished herself to the empty starry sky leaving only a ball of dazzling light in her ce, so the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s earth-shattering sound could not affect her at all!
BOOM~! BOOM~!
But the old man and the scary woman were different, they seemed to lose their strength and consciousness all of a sudden because of [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s earth-shattering scream, and they got pressed deep onto the ground by the overwhelming heavy pressure.
The [Ster Banishment]''s duration was up, and the ball of dazzling light dissipated, Tang Li Xue returned once again to her previous location.
Without Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour] that was sucking the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s extremely powerful aura which caused the overwhelming heavy pressure, Tang Li Xue immediately pressed onto the ground like the old man and the scary woman.
Tang Li Xue had already expected this, so she immediately activated her [Shadow Striders]''s Equipment Skill, [Shadow sh]!
Yes, the [Shadow sh]''s cooldown was finally up after Tang Li Xue spent so much of her time fighting against the old man and the scary woman, then even lured them here.
Tang Li Xue instantly teleported to the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s shade!
She suddenly appeared so close to the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] that it caught the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]pletely off guard!
She immediately released Little Loki from her Dantian''s space, and Little Loki hastily used its [Heaven''s Devour] again to suck the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s extremely powerful aura.
Tang Li Xue felt the overwhelming heavy pressure around her and Little Loki instantly disappeared, but she also knew that Little Loki had already exhausted, so it might only be able tost a few more seconds.
''It is now or never~! Go, Yaya~!'' Tang Li Xue thought full of determination. Tang Li Xue quickly canceled her [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya!
Then Little Loki, Tang Li Xue, and Yaya charged at full speed toward the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]!
Yaya swiftly shot dozens of [Compressed Wind des] which urately cut the nine Radiant Star Fruits!
Those nine Radiant Star Fruits were sucked toward Little Loki because Little Loki was still using its [Heaven''s Devour], but Tang Li Xue quickly caught them all before those nine Radiant Star Fruits could enter Little Loki''s mouth!
"SUCCESS~! Uwehehehe... Muahahahaha~!" Tang Li Xueughed maniacally in delight.
The [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] became extremely angry as it stared at Tang Li Xue and her group fiercely!
But before the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] could do anything, Tang Li Xue hastily put Little Loki and Yaya into her Dantian Space while waving her paw toward the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] with a hippie smile on her face.
"Bye-bye, Ugly Big Guy~! Please don''t miss me, I am just a passing-by legend~!" Tang Li Xue said to the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] while activating her [Swap] skill and exchanging her location with her perfect copy.
Then Tang Li Xue un-summoned her perfect copy in one breath before her perfect copy could get crushed by the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s powerful pressure.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief as the tension pressing on her entire body was finally relieved.
She might drag Little Loki and Yaya to die with her if she made just one tiny little mistake or wrong calction.
Tang Li Xue had to admit that she was really too rash this time.
Both the old man and the scary woman were already not something she could defeat, not to mention that more than 90,000 years old [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree].
Just when Tang Li Xue sat on the ground to take a breath, her [Extrasensory Perception] suddenly screamed!
The silver furs on her entire body stood up when she sensed the unknown life-threatening danger!
This life-threatening danger might be the biggest she had ever felt until now, and she had never faced something on this level before!
Tang Li Xue immediately activated [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s absolute protection buff in reflex!
(Sun And Moon Protection: Grant invulnerability for 2 seconds.)
Previously, the perfect copy had already used this [Sun And Moon Protection], but the real Tang Li Xue had not used it yet since she held it as herst trump card until now!
Tang Li Xue saw a huge 7-colored ray shot toward her right in front of her eyes!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Yes, this 7-colored ray was actually fired by [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]!
It was the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s trump card called [Ster Explosion Beam].
This [Ster Explosion Beam] consumed arge amount of star energy, so the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] did not dare to use it carelessly.
But it finally decided to use it to kill Tang Li Xue who dared to steal all of its fruits just now!
The range of this [Ster Explosion Beam] was outrageously far, its destructive power could no longer be described as ''powerful'' anymore. It was too destructive that it could evaporate everything it touched into nothingness!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The [Ster Explosion Beam] kept extending while destroying everything in its path!
The Medicine Garden Pce''s walls and ceiling were more fragile than paper under the destructive power of [Ster Explosion Beam]!
All of the walls and ceiling of the Medicine Garden Pce''s second floor were crumbling away into dust!
Even the protection formation of the Medicine Garden Pce was sted to nothingness by the [Ster Explosion Beam]!
The [Ster Explosion Beam] shot toward the sky like a pir of the light for a moment before it dissipated!
Even the entire Secret Realm shook a little because of it.
Under the night sky, the pir of the light was so conspicuous that Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and all of the members of the exploration team could see it.
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply while muttering in suspicion: "I can sense extremely powerful energy from that light even from this distance... Sigh, I can only hope Little Xue is not the one who caused it. That troublemaker can really attract all kinds of trouble."
Chapter 830 830: Incoming Danger!
Chapter 830 830: Iing Danger!
??"Miss Lan, should we check the location where the pir of the light emitted?" One of the exploration team members asked Instructor Mei Lan.
On her way to explore this secret realm, Instructor Mei Lan bumped into the exploration team members several times, so she brought them with her.
The strength of the exploration team members was pretty uneven. Some of them were weak, but they specialized in formation breaking, treasure tracking, treasure appraising, defusing traps, and so on, while the others might be very powerful since they specialized in guarding and fighting.
Instructor Mei Lan was currently traveling with seven exploration team members, and most of them had weak battle prowess.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded her head and replied: "The other exploration team members should have seen that pir of light too, and they would probably be heading toward that light. If we head there, there is a high chance we will meet with the other exploration team members in that ce."
Instructor Mei Lan hesitated for a while before adding: "I have a bad feeling about this Secret Realm, so it would be better for us to gather with all of the exploration team members as soon as possible."
The seven exploration team members swallowed their saliva in nervousness when they heard Instructor Mei Lan''s solemn words.
Even if all of the exploration team members managed to gather, they might not be strong enough to face the danger in this Secret Realm.
What they really hoped was to reunite with Chief Zhu Jun and his daughter, Zhu Zhenhua, as soon as possible since they knew how powerful these two were.
Instructor Mei Lan immediately led the seven exploration team members toward the direction of the pir of light.
Teacher Li Wei was pretty much in the same situation as Instructor Mei Lan, and he also quickly led the exploration team members who were with him toward the direction of the pir of light.
That pir of light really acted as a light beacon, almost all of the scattered exploration team members thought the same as Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei, then they also headed to that location.
.....
Meanwhile, the current situation of Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua was actually not as good as the other people thought.
Drip~! Drip~! Drip~! Drip~!
Fresh blood kept dripping from Chief Zhu Jun''s missing right arm.
But Zhu Zhenhua did not seem to care about it when she kept dragging Chief Zhu Jun away as if they were trying to run from something terrifying.
Chief Zhu Jun slowly opened his eyes and tried to say something to Zhu Zhenhua.
"Cough, cough, cough... PUFFF~!" However, Chief Zhu Jun coughed out several mouthfuls of blood and sprayed another mouthful of blood again and again.
"Dad! Are you all right?" Zhu Zhenhua stopped dragging Chief Zhu Jun andid him under the huge tree before she asked Chief Zhu Jun with a tone filled with worry.
"It is okay... Cough, cough... I am all right... We do not need to run away anymore... Let''s just take a rest here..." Chief Zhu Jun spoke with great difficulty as his pale face turned even paler.
"But dad... What if that monster caught up with us?" Zhu Zhenhua worriedly asked.
Chief Zhu Jun shook his head and replied: "Do not worry... If that monster wanted to chase us down, it should have already caught up with us long ago. That monster should have been attracted by that pir of light and headed there instead."
Zhu Zhenhua finally sighed in relief and sat weakly beside Chief Zhu Jun.
"What kind of monster is that? How could it be so horrible and powerful?" Zhu Zhenhua muttered in a frightened tone as her slim body shuddered slightly in fear.
Chief Zhu Jun shook his head. He did not reply and immediately circted his vitality energy to recover his wounds.
After the front part of the space tunnel crumbled apart under the attack of an unknown creature, Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua immediately used their strength to protect the back part of the space tunnel, so the others would remain safe, and all of them would not get trapped forever in this secret realm.
As a result, the others were thrown out from the space tunnel, and they got randomly teleported around the Secret Realm, but Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua had to fight head-on against the unknown creature to protect the space tunnel''s remains as their only way to exit from the secret realm.
Who knew that the unknown creature was actually extremely powerful, and even its abilities were very strange?!
Even though Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua teamed up to fight against the unknown creature, both of them were still beaten so badly that they had to escape to save their own lives in the end.
Both Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua got seriously injured.
Chief Zhu Jun''s right arm was even torn off by that strange creature, and the strange creature delightfully ate Chief Zhu Jun''s right arm in one gulp.
Fortunately for Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua, the strange creature was attracted by the pir of light when it was chasing after them.
The strange creature immediately abandoned Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua like a boring toy and shed toward the pir of light to find a new interesting toy.
Chief Chu Jun suddenly opened his eyes again and shouted in panic: "Not good~! We have to warn the others to never head toward that pir of light or they will... Cough, cough, cough... PUFF~!" Chief Chu Jun coughed and spurted out a lot of blood again before he could finish his words.
Zhu Zhenhua hastily took out hermunication talisman, but themunication talisman could not be used in this secret realm.
Then she tried to use the other gadgets tomunicate with the exploration team one by one, but all of them failed to connect.
Zhu Zhenhua gnashed her teeth and stood up, but she staggered and fell down instead.
Zhu Zhenhua wanted to quickly head toward the pir of light and warn the others, but her current situation clearly did not allow her to do so, because she was not only seriously injured but also most of her energy was exhausted.
Chief Chu Jun sighed as he patted Zhu Zhenhua''s shoulder while saying in aforting tone: "We have already done our best to protect all of them. The rest could only depend on their luck."
Zhu Zhenhua closed her eyes unwillingly, but she could only nod her head in agreement.
Both Chief Chu Jun andZhu Zhenhua decided to focus on recovering their exhausted vitality energy and injuries as soon as possible.
It was truly ironic that Tang Li Xue''s undeliberate action which caused the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] to shoot [Ster Explosion Beam] at her ended up saving Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua''s lives instead.
Of course, no one noticed that yet until this point, not even Tang Li Xue herself or Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua.
.....
Meanwhile, at the location of the pir of light...
More than half of the Medicine Garden Pce had copsed into ruins.
The entire roof and the walls on the second floor were blown to pieces, while many parts of the floor had fallen apart.
A lot of debris fell onto the first floor. Some parts of the first floor even copsed and fell onto the basement.
BAAAANG~!
Tang Li Xue crawled out from under the debris in the basement and jumped onto the first floor.
"PTUUUII~!" Tang Li Xue spotted out all of the dirt that entered her mouth, then she shook her furry body to shake away all of the dirt and dust on her body.
When Tang Li Xue saw the ruined Medicine Pce Garden, she immediately shuddered in fright.
She quickly activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], then her silver furry body turned invisible and undetectable.
Tang Li Xue hastily used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to get away from the ruined Medicine Pce Garden as quickly as possible.
There was no guarantee that the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] would not shoot its [Ster Explosion Beam] for the second time toward her after all.
When Tang Li Xue almost went out of the ruined Medicine Pce Garden, she actually saw a familiar sword among the debris.
"That is... Heaven Edge Sword?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
But different from its previous imposing and cool-looking appearance, the current Heaven Edge Sword looked so shabby and filled with countless cracks as if it would shatter to pieces in one touch.
At first, Tang Li Xue wanted to just ignore it since the current Heaven Edge Sword looked like nothing more than a useless broken weapon, but she noticed there was ck energy mixed with the Heaven Edge Sword.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and hesitated for a while before she decided to step closer and observe it carefully.
"This familiar ck energy... Don''t tell me this ck energy is from that previous scary woman in the red dress?! But why the heck is it mixed with the Heaven Edge Sword right now?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in suspicion.
Then Tang Li Xue immediately realized that both the old man and the scary woman should be sted to nothingness by the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s previous light beam attack.
However, the old man''s Heaven Edge Sword and the scary woman''s ck energy still managed to survive and somehow mixed into one.
Tang Li Xue squinted her topaz blue eyes while muttering in a curious tone: "This is really interesting..."
Under Tang Li Xue''s observation, she managed to find out that the ck energy was slowly getting stronger, and the cracks on the Heaven Edge Sword were also slowly healed.
"Oh, wow... Don''t tell me that old man and scary woman can still resurrect themselves?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in astonishment.
Chapter 831 831: Unknowingly Passing The Danger!
Chapter 831 831: Unknowingly Passing The Danger!
??"Oh, no... Then I should get away here quickly before they got resurrected!" Tang Li Xue''s expression changed into panic as she immediately ran away further from the Heaven Edge Sword as if she were avoiding the gue.
But she suddenly halted her step as she excitedly realized something.
"Wait a minute...They should be in their weakest state right now, so why should I be afraid of them? On the contrary, isn''t this my best chance to capture them with my [Sword of Disaster]?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in an excited tone with a silly smile on her innocent face.
Tang Li Xue hastily turned around and vigntly approached the cracked Heaven Edge Sword again.
After she was only one step away from the Heaven Edge Sword, Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form] and took out her pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] from her space pouch.
"I wonder if this Heaven Edge Sword can be stored inside my [Sword of Disaster]''s space just like those zombies and ghosts? I hope it will really work." Tang Li Xue secretly prayed in her heart.
If the Heaven Edge Sword can be stored inside the [Sword of Disaster]''s space, it means the old man and the scary woman would be trapped inside [Sword of Disaster]''s space after they got resurrected.
With the [Sword of Disaster]''s third effect, Tang Li Xue was 100% sure that both the old man and the scary woman could be tamed. Of course, it would take much longer than those ordinary zombies, but Tang Li Xue had enough patience if she could really get two extremely powerful bodyguards for free.
(3rd Effect of [Sword of Disaster]: Storing the corpses and souls of dead creatures. All the dead creatures stored inside will be nurtured with Death Energy and strengthen over time. They will also be more loyal and obedient to the holder over time.)
Since Tang Li Xue was still in her fox form, she could only hold the pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] with her little paws and poke the Heaven Edge Sword gently with her [Sword of Disaster].
Who knew that the Heaven Edge Sword really entered the [Sword of Disaster]''s space without even the slightest resistance?!
"Sess~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock because she could not believe that she could actually do it so easily.
Tang Li Xue''s blue topaz eyes were shining brightly like a pair of stars.
She hugged her [Sword of Disaster] excitedly whileughing insanely in delight for a while.
Her delight was no less than when she caught two legendary poke... cough, I mean two legendary beasts for the first time in her previous life.
The cracked Heaven Edge Sword and the ck energy that shrouded the Heaven Edge Sword greedily absorbed the Death Energy inside the [Sword of Disaster]''s space.
With the nurturing effect of the Death Energy, the time needed for their recovery would be shortened greatly.
Tang Li Xue was really looking forward to the day they werepletely recovered and tamed by the [Sword of Disaster]''s space since it meant she would have two extremely powerful thugs under hermand!
When Tang Li Xue was still lost in her happiness, her silver furry body suddenly shuddered violently.
She stoppedughing and grinning as she tilted her head in confusion.
"What is wrong? Why do I abruptly feel cold and ufortable?" Tang Li Xue muttered in suspicion.
"Oh, well... It should be because of this eerie ce. Let''s just get out of this ominous ce as soon as possible." Tang Li Xue said as she put away her [Sword of Disaster] into her space pouch and activated her [Ethereal Form] again.
Then she quickly ran away in fright from that ce using her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
Tang Li Xue had not realized that there was a strange creature shrouded in a ck fog-like energy stalking closely at her just now.
Under the night sky, the strange creature waspletely inconspicuous even when it stood tall in front of the ruined Medicine Garden Pce.
But it made sense since the strength difference between Tang Li Xue and this strange creature was too far apart like the distance between heaven and earth.
When Tang Li Xue felt cold and ufortable, the strange creature was actually staring at her judgingly for a few moments.
However, it immediately lost its interest in Tang Li Xue after it sensed Tang Li Xue''s current level.
Tang Li Xue was only a demonic beast or [Umon]-grade beast in the strange creature''s eyes.
Even the almost exhausted energy contained in Tang Li Xue''s body was too weak to attract its appetite.
Let alone filling its stomach, eating Tang Li Xue would not even enough to fill the gap between its teeth.
It could be said that Tang Li Xue was really lucky this time because the strange creature was not interested in her at all, or it would be hard to say if she could remain alive tonight under the ''care'' of this strange creature.
The strange creature stared greedily at the direction of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] while licking its sharp teeth.
Then the strange creature instantly disappeared as it shed toward the direction of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] in the speed faster than lightning.
..... After running away until several hundred of miles away from the ruined Medicine Garden Pce, Tang Li Xue finally sighed in relief.
She also saw more than a dozen of exploration team members heading toward the ruined Medicine Garden Pce instead, but she decided to not show herself and greet them.
Tang Li Xue still felt doubtful that the nine Radiant Star Fruits would be enough for her evolution to [Rare]-Grade beast, but even if they were enough, she still needed some time alone and the right ce to evolve into the [Rare]-Grade beast in this Secret Realm.
''I hope they will not recklessly look for the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] after they reach the Medicine Garden Pce. That damned [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] should still be very pissed off after I managed to steal all of its fruits, so it will definitely kill everyone it sees.'' Tang Li Xue could only secretly hope in her heart.
Even though she felt really worried about the safety of those exploration team members, but her evolution to the [Rare]-
Grade beast was still the first priority.
There was really no way she would give up on her evolution to the [Rare]-Grade beast just to be a nanny for those exploration team members!
On her way, she also saw many zombified creatures such as zombie wolves, zombie rats, zombie hyenas, and so on, but they could no longer attract Tang Li Xue''s interest anymore after she managed to catch two legendary... zombie creatures from the ruined Medicine Garden Pce.
After she had run quite far away from the ruined Medicine Garden Pce, Tang Li Xue was already very exhausted because of the continuous fierce battle against the scary woman in the fancy red dress, the old man with Heaven Edge Sword, and the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree].
Tang Li Xue decided to dig a cave under the valley using her [Earth Mother''s Gift] to control the stone and soil easily.
Then Tang Li Xue created a stone wall to cover the cave entrance after she entered the cave and made it as natural as possible, so no one would notice that there was a hidden cave here.
Inside the dark cave, Tang Li Xue immediately fell asleep in great exhaustion.
.....
At this time, more than a dozen exploration team members had already gathered near the ruined Medicine Garden Pce.
However, Tang Li Xue was clearly worried too much since almost all of the exploration team members had rich experience in exploring ruins or secret realms, so how could they blindly enter the ruined Medicine Garden Pce without investigating the danger inside it carefully?!
Currently, the exploration team members are still setting some formations around the ruined Medicine Garden Pce.
Then they controlled several puppets to inspect the interior of the ruined Medicine Garden Pce, so if there were really any dangers inside, only their puppets would be sacrificed.
After one hour or so, Instructor Mei Lan''s team and Teacher Li Wei''s team also arrived at the location of the ruined Medicine Garden Pce.
The other exploration team members at the ruined Medicine Garden Pce immediately greeted them politely.
"How about it? Have you found out the source of the previous pir of light?" Teacher Li Wei asked with a solemn expression.
The exploration team members'' ttering expressions also turned solemn as they immediately led Teacher Li Wei into the ruined Medicine Garden Pce.
Instructor Mei Lan was not really familiar with anyone from the exploration team except Teacher Li Wei, so she did not talk much and just followed Teacher Li Wei closely from behind.
Surprisingly, the exploration team members actually led Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan into the almost copsed treasure space on the second floor of the ruined Medicine Garden Pce.
Unlike the previous treasure space which looked amazingly beautiful like paradise, the current treasure space looked likend that had just been hit by andslide and earthquake.
One of the exploration team members took something from the ground and showed it to Teacher Li Wei while exining: "We suspect the source of the previous pir of light should be from this."
"This is..." Teacher Li Wei muttered as he took the object given by the exploration team member and carefully examined it.
It was actually a shattered wood with a starry sky pattern.
Then Teacher Li Wei and the other exploration team members took a look at the huge hole right in front of them.
If Tang Li Xue was here, she would be agape in extreme shock since the location of that huge hole was the exact location of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] before, and the shattered wood with a starry sky pattern was actually from the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s trunk.
It was truly hard to believe that the extremely powerful 90,000-year-old [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] could be beaten and uprooted by someone!
Chapter 832 832: Onward to the Next Destination!
Chapter 832 832: Onward to the Next Destination!
??.....
However, Tang Li Xue was currently still remained oblivious to everything in the ruined Medicine Garden Pce.
She was sleeping so soundly without any worries and only woke up in the afternoon the next day.
Tang Li Xuezily stretched her silver furry body while yawning widely.
Then she activated her [Transfiguration] skill and transformed back into her human form.
After tying her smooth long silver hair in a ponytail style, Tang Li Xue created a set of white clothes with her [Energy Maniption] and wore it to cover her snowy-white naked slim body.
A silly grin appeared on Tang Li Xue''s stunningly beautiful face as she rubbed her hands together excitedly before she took out nine Radiant Star Fruits from her space pouch.
"System, help me check how many points of star energies are contained in these nine Radiant Star Fruits?" Tang Li Xue asked in a nervous but hopeful tone.
[Nine Radiant Star Fruits respectively contains 107, 96, 84, 78, 65, 42, 39, 28, and 21 points of star energies. So, the total is 560 points of star energy.]
"More than five hundred?! Woooaaahhh~! So many?" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise and excitement.
"Adding the previous Seven Stars Soul Grass and Seven Stars Soul Pills, it mean that I have already umted 614 points of star energy in total! Wuhuuu~! So, I only need another 385 points of star energy to fulfill my evolution requirement to [Rare]-Grade beast, right?" Tang Li Xue murmured while nodding and grinning in satisfaction.
[Host, you should have forgotten that you have merged with [Awakening Gem] which lowered all of the requirements for your evolution by 25%. So, you should only need 750 points of star energy.]
Tang Li Xue''s heartbeat stopped for a moment in surprise after she read her System''s reminder.
"I really forgot about that~! System, why don''t you remind me after I get the treasures with star energy from Gu Family''s mansion before?!" Tang Li Xue pped her forehead and scolded her System in a displeased tone.
[Because Host did not ask about it before.]
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in annoyance while holding back her urge to scold her System.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down and pondered while pinching her smooth chin and muttering: "In short, I only need 136 points of star energy to reach 750 points... This is good news for me since it means I do not need to jump into a dangerous ce like the Medicine Garden Pce to look for the treasure containing abundant star energies like before."
Tang Li Xue stored back the nine Radiant Star Fruits into her space pouch and took out the [Treasure Map] from her System''s item storage.
She unfurled the [Treasure Map] and stared at the red dots in the [Treasure Map] while considering her next targets carefully.
Most of the red dots shown in the [Treasure Map] were light red, and only a few of them were deep red.
The treasures she could find at the locations of the deep red dots should be extremely precious but the risk should be equally high. The previous Medicine Garden Pce was the concrete proof of that fact.
While the treasures shown in the light red dots on the map should be much less preciouspared to the deep red dots, the risk should be moderate at best.
With Tang Li Xue''s current strength and the help of Little Loki and Yaya, obtaining the treasures from the light red dots on the map should be a piece of cake for them.
"Urgh, should I choose to pick the treasures from the light red dots with low danger level risk or deep red dots with high danger level risk?" Tang Li Xue muttered in hesitation.
After hesitating for a while, Tang Li Xue decided to take out Little Loki and Yaya who were still chasing each other yfully in her Dantian''s space, and asked for their opinion instead.
Just like several pieces of equipment she obtained from her System, she could also toggle the [Treasure Map] on or off, so she could allow others to see it or not ording to her will.
Tang Li Xue exined to Little Loki and Yaya about light red dots and deep red dots shown in the [Treasure Map], then asked them: "Where do you two think we should go?"
"Meow~!" (Here!)
"Yaaa~!" (Here!)
Little Loki used its paw to point at the deep red dots while Yaya used her tiny finger to point at the light red dots.
Little Loki and Yaya red at each other menacingly, then began to argue with each other!
"Nyaw Meoww~!"
"Ya Yayaya Yaya~!"
They argued even more fiercely until they pinched at each other cheeks and pulled at each other ears while scuffling and rolling around on the ground.
Tang Li Xue facepalmed and scolded them: "You two really have such a fragile stic friendship! Didn''t you just y around happily together just now?!" Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead in frustration and immediately decided on their next destination.
"All right, that is enough, you two~! Our next target will be this deep red dot. But we will pass two light red dots when she heads toward this deep red dot. We will see if we can obtain enough treasures with star energy before we reach the deep red dotter." Tang Li Xue exined to Little Loki and Yaya to make them stop fighting with each other.
"Humph~!" Yaya and Little Loki harrumphed unhappily and turned their faces from each other.
But Tang Li Xue could easily guess the reason behind Yaya and Little Loki''s choice.
Yaya chose the light red dot because its location was the closest to them, while Little Loki chose the deep red dot because it wanted to eat the ''leftover'' snacks other than the treasures with abundant star energies needed by Tang Li Xue for her evolution like in the Medicine Garden Pce before.
Unfortunately, the [Ster Explosion Beam] shot by [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] ruined all of Little Loki''s ''leftover'' snacks before.
Tang Li Xue also secretly felt guilty about it since Little Loki and Yaya did not get to eat anything after they worked so hard to obtain the nine Radiant Star Fruits for her.
So, Tang Li Xue decided that she would help them to look for the treasures to make them grow stronger after she found enough treasures with star energy and evolved to [Rare]-Grade Beastter.
"Let''s go, Little Loki, Yaya~!" Tang Li Xue urged Little Loki and Yaya as she used her [Mother Earth''s Gift] to control the stone covering the cave entrance and open a way for them to get out from the dark cave.
Little Loki and Yaya jumped toward Tang Li Xue and leisurely sat on the top of her head and her left shoulder.
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn herself invisible and undetectable while Little Loki and Yaya also used their own skill to turn themselves invisible.
Tang Li Xue executed her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to increase her speed as she turned into a silver sh and sped off toward one of the red dots shown in the [Treasure Map].
This time, Tang Li Xue was no longer obsessed with using her [Sword of Disaster] to catch the zombie creatures she saw and formed her own personal zombie army, so her traveling speed was so much faster than before.
Under the guidance of [Treasure Map], she reached the location of a light red dot in fifteen minutes or so.
But what she currently saw was ake in the middle of the valley instead.
"So, the treasures are inside theke? What a troublesome location!" Tang Li Xue groaned in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue furled the [Treasure Map] and threw it into her System''s item storage before she brought Little Loki and Yaya to jump and dive into theke.
Theke water was biting cold, but it was not cold enough to affect Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Yaya.
Tang Li Xue immediately used her Profound Law of Heat to warm herself, Little Loki, and Yaya, so the biting coldness of theke water was easily resolved.
But unfortunately, her action provoked the creature inside theke instead.
A huge one-hundred-meter-long blue snake swiftly swam toward them!
Most of the snakes were usually sensitive to heat, and they should have excellent thermal sensors.
Tang Li Xue who was currently using her Profound Law of Heat was no different from a light beacon amidst the darkness in this huge blue snake''s thermal sensors.
''Damn it~! I know this would not be as easy as I thought!'' Tang Li Xue sighed in aggravation.
Despite herints, Tang Li Xue already took out her [Sword of Disaster] from her space pouch in order to face the huge one-hundred-meter-long blue snake.
Little Loki used its [Phantom Splitters], and its tiny ck figure split into ten identical figures, while Yaya... Well, there was nothing much Yaya could do inside the deep cold water, so she decided just to watch the battle while sitting on Tang Li Xue''s shoulder.
But who knew that huge blue snake suddenly disappeared from their sight?!
No, the huge blue snake was not turned invisible or vanished, but it was suddenly moving at extremely fast speed in this deep cold water!
BOOOOOM~!
Tang Li Xue was thrown forward dozens of meters as her back was hit heavily by the huge blue snake''s tail!
It was so painful that Tang Li Xue felt as if her spine was broken to pieces by that strike!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth to withstand the pain and thought: ''This bast*rd is actually really powerful! It seems I have to be more serious! I want to see if you can match me in the underwater battleter~!''
Then Tang Li Xue hastily summoned out her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], without any hesitation!
Chapter 833 833: Calling For Reinforcement!
Chapter 833 833: Calling For Reinforcement!
??''Come, [Golden Winged Serpent]~!'' Tang Li Xue urged with her thoughts.
"ROOAAAARR~!"
The [Golden Winged Serpent] roared majestically right after Tang Li Xue summoned it out!
''Ei, stop pretending and juste here quickly!'' Tang Li Xue rebuked [Golden Winged Serpent] lightly.
[Golden Winged Serpent]''s unique skills and passive skills might be very favorable for the underwater battle, but its current strength was clearly far too weak to fight head-on against the huge blue snake.
Tang Li Xue had to admit that she had neglected [Golden Winged Serpent]''s growthtely since she was too focused on improving herself, Yaya, and Little Loki.
She decided that she would make up for it and began to level up [Golden Winged Serpent] after she evolved into [Rare]-Grade Beastter.
For now, Tang Li Xue could only let her [Golden Winged Serpent] merge with herself, so she would temporarily obtain [Golden Winged Serpent]''s unique skills and passive skills.
The [Golden Winged Serpent] turned into a sh of golden light and wrapped Tang Li Xue''s arms, then the golden light transformed into a pair of golden gauntlets wrapped on Tang Li Xue''s arms.
With [Golden Winged Serpent]''s skills such as [Water Control], [High Water Affinity], [Greater Water Sense], [Golden Scales], and [Dragon Blessing], Tang Li Xue''s overallbat prowess in the water immediately soared by several times.
In fact, if the previous battle in the Medicine Garden Pce was in the open space, Tang Li Xue might choose to merge with [Golden Winged Serpent] like right now, so she could use [Summon Rain] and [Tidal Wave] before she could use [Golden Winged Serpent]''s various other skills into y too.
Unfortunately, the previous battle in the Medicine Garden Pce was in a closed space.
Moreover, Tang Li Xue was also afraid that the attack from the old swordsman, the scary woman, and the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] would shatter the [Golden Winged Serpent] in its golden gauntlet form which would certainly affect her soul.
In the end, she decided not to use [Golden Winged Serpent] on the Medicine Garden Pce in the end after careful consideration.
But this huge blue snake was different since it was not as powerful as the old swordsman, the scary woman, and the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree], so the only factor that made it hard for Tang Li Xue to fight against it was because they were fighting in the deepwater right now.
In short, it was just the right situation and in front of the right opponent for [Golden Winged Serpent] to disy its might.
The huge blue snake could move around freely at an extremely fast speed underwater, and it quickly approached Tang Li Xue from behind!
But this time, Tang Li Xue immediately sensed the huge blue snake''s movement with her [Greater Water Sense]!
([Greater Water Sense]: Grant underwater breathing ability and also the ability to sense the vibrations in the water to detect everything and every movement inside the water. This skill was upgraded from ordinary [Water Sense] with a far wider radius.)
The huge blue snake opened its mouth widely as if it wanted to swallow Tang Li Xue in one gulp, but Tang Li Xue suddenly twisted her slender waist and turned sideways to dodge it.
When the huge blue snake passed right behind her back, Tang Li Xue turned her slim body in the opposite direction while throwing a punch at the huge blue snake''s body!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
BAAAANG~!
The huge blue snake was thrown back several meters by Tang Li Xue''s heavy strike!
Furthermore, Tang Li Xue''s [Moon Shattering Strike] was the defense pration attack that used the method of injecting her energy into the opponent''s body and exploding her energy from inside, so her attack easily bypassed the huge blue snake''s thick hard scales and injured it from inside.
The shrewd Little Loki immediately took this chance when the huge blue snake was slowed down by Tang Li Xue''s strike tounch its attack!
Little Loki urged its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones tounch their attack at the same time!
[sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
The attacks from Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones managed to leave criss-cross bleeding wounds on the huge blue snake''s body!
''Good job, Little Loki! Let''s finish it off together right now!'' Tang Li Xue praised Little Loki as she swam swiftly closer toward the huge blue snake!
Unexpectedly, the huge blue snake let out a loud hissing sound all of a sudden!
HIIISS~! HIIIISS~! HIIISS~!
''Is it hissing in pain? No way, right? From its appearance, this snake is also a zombified creature, so it should not be able to feel any pain...'' Tang Li Xue thought in suspicion as she felt a bad feeling about it.
Tang Li Xue imbued her Golden Gauntlet which looked like a dragon w with [Sharp Edge Power] and unleashed [Moonlight sh] toward the huge blue snake''s neck! PUUUFF~!
Tang Li Xue managed to slice the huge blue snake''s neck, but she failed to sever its head since the wound was too shallow.
''Tsk~! It seems I have underestimated the hardness of this snake''s scales too much.'' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance.
But her body suddenly stiffened when she sensed the iing danger with her [Extrasensory Perception] and a lot of movements from the deeper water depths with her [Greater Water Sense]!
''Damn... One, two, three, five, seven... Okay, forget it... There are a lot more huge snakes actuallying fast toward us?! So, this bast*rd was hissing to call for help just now?!'' Tang Li Xue immediately concluded.
''You damn cowardly snake~! How could you bring your parents, rtives, and friends into our sacred duel?! Little Loki, let''s run quickly before they reach us!'' Tang Li Xue cursed before she warned Little Loki.
She even shamelessly forgot that she just ganged up with Little Loki to fight against the poor blue snake just now!
Little Loki dismissed all of its [Phantom Splitter] clones and used [Instant Teleportation] to appear on Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder while Yaya was currently still upying Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder.
Tang Li Xue hurriedly swam further in the opposite direction from where the group of huge blue snakes woulde from!
However, the previous blue snake who got injured by Tang Li Xue and Little Loki clearly would not let them get away that easily!
It swiftly swam to chase after Tang Li Xue closely from behind while opening its mouth and rapidly shot sharp icicles toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue already sensed the blue snake''s every movement with her [Greater Water Sense], so she quickly swam in the zigzag pattern to dodge the sharp icicles shot by the blue snake!
Thanks to [Golden Winged Serpent]''s various skills, Tang Li Xue''s current speed underwater was very fast, but unfortunately, the blue snake''s underwater speed was still even more faster than Tang Li Xue''s.
The cunning huge blue snake no longer dared to attack Tang Li Xue from close, and it only harassed Tang Li Xue from afar with its sharp icicle rapid shots.
It was clear that the huge blue snake only nned to slow Tang Li Xue down and waited for its reinforcement toe, so they could gang up on Tang Li Xue and Little Lokiter.
''This damned bast*rd~!'' Tang Li Xue could only curse at the blue snake''s shameless tactic in anger.
Tang Li Xue and her group would surely be able to win even if they were fighting head-on against that group of blue snakes, but Tang Li Xue did not want to waste so much of her time entangled with them.
The treasure located in thiske was only light red dot level after all, so Tang Li Xue thought it was really not worth it for her to spend so much of her time and effort to obtain it.
''All right, let''s change to our n B!'' Tang Li Xue said in a solemn tone through their mind connection.
Little Loki and Yaya stared at Tang Li Xue in confusion and curiosity.
''Err, well... Since when did they have n B?''
Without exining it to them, Tang Li Xue suddenly used her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy!
''Go and make them busy for a few minutes while I will find the treasures!'' Tang Li Xue urged her perfect copy.
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied in a helpless tone: ''You must be kidding with me, right? I do not have [Golden Winged Serpent]''s skills like you, so my battle prowess underwater is very poor. Can you tell me how the heck I can fight against those disgusting huge snakes?!''
Tang Li Xue: "....."
The perfect copy''s words really made sense that even Tang Li Xue was ashamed of herself right now.
''All right, stopining! Then we will trade our task. Leave those snakes to me while you and Little Loki will try to find the treasures instead! How about it? Are you happy?'' Tang Li Xue said to her perfect copy.
This time, her perfect copy had no other reason toin or refuse.
Little Loki reluctantly jumped onto the perfect copy''s shoulder as it immediately led the perfect copy to find the treasures with its sharp sense of smell for treasures.
Right at this moment, the group of snakes had already joined with the previous blue snake and managed to get closer to Tang Li Xue so quickly.
Tang Li Xue suddenly turned around and created a wire with her [Energy Maniption]!
Under her control, the wire covered the group of huge snakes and bound them for a few moments!
The perfect copy hastily took this chance to swim away from them while the real Tang Li Xue faced the group of huge snakes and made them busy for a while.
Chapter 834 834: Underwater Cave!
Chapter 834 834: Underwater Cave!
??Different from Tang Li Xue who had merged with [Golden Winged Serpent] and temporarily obtained [Golden Winged Serpent]''s various skills, the swimming speed of her perfect copy was quite slow.
If not for Tang Li Xue who was stalling time by keeping the group of huge snakes busy, it would have been almost impossible for the perfect copy to get away from that group of huge snakes.
The wire created by Tang Li Xue''s [Energy Maniption] clearly could not hold the group of huge snakes for long.
After a dozen breaths or so, the group of huge snakes managed to break the wire!
Some of them were angrily swimming toward Tang Li Xue, while the rest were chasing after the perfect copy.
Of course, Tang Li Xue would not let those huge snakes bother her perfect copy in doing her task to find the treasures, so she immediately decided to unleash her domain prototype!
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Moon Form~!
A mesmerizing silver light shone as a faint image of the moon formed behind Tang Li Xue!
In that instant, the unbearable cold aura quickly spread around in the deep underwater!
That group of huge snakes was caughtpletely off guard, and their bodies became stiff in an instant!
The unbearable coldness might be far from enough to kill them all, but it worked really well to slow them down, so they would not be able to chase after the perfect copy for now.
Tang Li Xue also hastily took this chance to restrain them!
She immediately used her [Energy Maniption] to condense a dozen thick chains to restrain that group of huge snakes!
Different from the previous wire, Tang Li Xue incorporated her array engraving knowledge when she created these dozen thick chains!
The [Sturdy] rune, [Energy Sealing] rune, and [Immobilize] rune formed oneplete array as it carved on the surface of those dozen thick chains!
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue''s luck was quite good this time, and those dozen thick chains were not crumbling apart like the previous binding rings she created.
''It is a sess?! Great~!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise and delight.
Then Tang Li Xue also integrated her Profound Law of Cold into those dozen thick chains!
Tang Li Xue swam quickly around the group of huge snakes while holding the thick chains tightly with both of her hands!
Before the group of huge snakes could react, Tang Li Xue already tied all of them with her thick chains!
''It is not over yet~!'' Tang Li Xue whispered in her mind as she activated her [Essence Devouring Technique]!
With the dozen thick chains as the medium, Tang Li Xue began to drain the energy from that group of huge snakes with her [Essence Devouring Technique]!
Surprisingly, somethingpletely unexpected by Tang Li Xue was happening...
[Exp Gained]~!
[Exp Gained]~!
[Exp Gained]~!
...
Tang Li Xue: ''???!!!''
Tang Li Xue felt bewildered because usually, the energy she absorbed with her [Essence Devouring Technique] was automatically converted to replenish her energy instead, so how could it converted into EXP this time?!
After checking the notification from her system, she finally understood what had happened.
Because she was currently merged with [Golden Winged Serpent] and held the thick chains while wearing the golden gauntlets, the energy she absorbed from the group of snakes was converted into EXP for her [Golden Winged Serpent] rather than replenishing her own energy!
Tang Li Xue eximed in her mind while smiling with a satisfied expression: ''What a lucky guy you are~?! It seems I have to merge with you more often from now on and use [Essence Devouring Technique] to suck the energy from the other creatures, so I can level you up quickly.''
''All of those zombified creatures should be the best target, but... urgh, it is really disgusting to hold them with my hands even though I wear the golden gauntlets, but their appearance and smell still make me... sigh... forget it.'' Tang Li Xue sulked in disgust.
However, that group of huge snakes were clearly not fools!
After they tried to break free from Tang Li Xue''s chains but to no avail, they immediately changed their strategy! They quickly swam deeper underwater!
With her small and slender body, Tang Li Xue could not resist at all as she got dragged helplessly by the group of huge snakes!
BOOOM~!
BAAAANG~!
Tang Li Xue''s body crashed violently with the underwater coral and underwater mountain!
Before Tang Li Xue could recover, that group of huge snakes suddenly turned around and pounced at the unprepared Tang Li Xue!
.....
While Tang Li Xue was fighting fiercely against the group of huge snakes, her perfect copy entered the underwater cave under the guidance of Little Loki.
SPLOOOSSH~!
The perfect copy suddenly entered the dry underwater cave!(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push(["_mgc.load"])})(window,"_mgq");
She staggered for a few steps before stabilizing herself, but she almost fell on her face disgracefully.
"Eh, what the heck is this?" The perfect copy was curiously checked and found the mysterious formation that prevented the water from entering the cave was engraved on the cave''s entrance.
"Making a hidden underwater cave like this is very cool~! I should try to make er if I manage to learn formation knowledge from Teacher Li." The perfect copy muttered in admiration as she looked around the underwater cave.
"Nyaaooww~!" (Over here~!)
Little Loki impatiently jumped down from the perfect copy''s shoulder and led her deeper into the underwater cave.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastened her step and followed Little Loki closely from behind while looking around vigntly.
This underwater cave was not dark at all.
With fluorescence substance around the cave''s wall, the underwater cave looked very beautiful instead.
At first, the cave was quite big, but it got narrower the deeper they explored it.
Then the perfect copy suddenly sensed an iing danger with her [Extrasensory Perception], so she hastily shouted to warn Little Loki: Watch out, Little Loki~!"
However, Little Loki had already acted faster as it used its [Instant Teleportation] to teleport itself back tens of meters!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy used [Mother Earth''s Gift] to create a stone wall right in front of her, and she also activated [Reflective Barrier] as her secondyer of defense!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
More than twenty water arrow spells struck the stone wall and easily pierced it!
Fortunately, the perfect copy''s [Reflective Barrier] managed to block them and sent them back toward the direction where they came instead!
When the perfect copy dispersed the stone wall in front of her with [Mother Earth''s Gift], she finally saw the creatures who just attacked her!
It was actually a group of mermen!
Or to be more exact, it was the group of zombified mermen.
Different from a beautiful mermaid like Princess Yan Fei, this group of zombified mermen looked ugly like fishes with burly arms and legs.
Moreover, they were zombie creatures which made them look even uglier like rotten fish corpses.
The unbearable foul stench they emitted was much worse than the other zombified creatures Tang Li Xue had met so far.
No wonder Little Loki noticed them earlier than Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and quickly used its [Instant Teleportation] to keep some distance from those zombified mermen.
When those zombified mermen charged toward the perfect copy, the perfect copy had already felt extremely dizzy before they could attack her because of their unbearable rotten fishy smell!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
The almost vomiting perfect copy waspletely defenseless as the zombified mermen stabbed their bone spears at her!
The bone spears embedded deep into the perfect copy''s shoulder, arm, stomach, and thighs!
The piercing pain woke up the perfect copy of her dizziness, and the first thing she did was not to counterattack at the zombified mermen but to use [Wind Burst Step] to get away further from them as soon as possible!
In the blink of an eye, the perfect copy was already more than fifty meters away from the zombified mermen.
"HUUUUEEERGHH~! What kind of terrifying chemical weapon is that~?! It almost sends me straight back to the underworld in one sniff! I can even faintly see Grandma Meng waving at me just now!" The perfect copy murmured in fright while shutting her mouth and nose with her palm.
ROOOAAARRR~!" The group of mermen roared angrily as they did not give up and kept chasing after Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
Of course, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy would never let them get close to her ever again!
She raised her slender hand and the deep purple lightning sparks began to spread around her!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The rumbling sound of thunder echoed inside the underwater cave when the deep purple lightning condensed into a majestic figure!
[World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]~!
Purple lightning and thunder intertwined with each other, and it condensed to form a dark purple lightning dragon!
The one-hundred-foot-tall lightning dragon shed toward the group of mermen!
BOOOOOOOMM~!
The group of mermen was sted to ashes in an instant by the dark purple lightning dragon!
The perfect copy and Little Loki sighed in relief after the group of mermen had been wiped out.
But they immediately heard the sound of many footsteps echoing in the underwater cave.
It seemed the loud rumbling sound of thunder was heard by the other mermen, and they quickly came here to check!
To make it worse, there should be quite a lot of them based on the sound of their footsteps!
"Damn it~! Just the smell of a handful of them is almost sending me back to the Underworld, if I have to face so many of them, I might vomit to death just by smelling at their stench!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said in a solemn tone.(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push(["_mgc.load"])})(window,"_mgq");
Chapter 835 835: Treasures With Inestimable Value!
Chapter 835 835: Treasures With Inestimable Value!
??Even Little Loki''s tiny ck furry body shuddered in horror when it recalled the unbearable foul stench from those zombified mermen.
Normally, almost all Taoties were not picky eaters, and they would just swallow everything greedily without leaving anything behind, but Little Loki was a special case since it was raised and pampered by Tang Li Xue since it was born.
Little Loki had only eaten high-quality beast cores and many other fragrant precious treasures so far,so how could it bear to swallow such stinky corpses and rotten mermen?!
Even humans could eat cockroaches and mice when they were too hungry, but if humans were already getting used to eating delicious foods cooked by five-star chefs every day, how could they bear to eat cockroaches and mice?!
So, it was not that strange that Taotie cub who always had an insatiable hunger, and was able to swallow everything like Little Loki became such a picky eater right now.
"Let''s go, Little Loki~! We will hide first before theye!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy urged Little Loki as she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn herself invisible and conceal all of her traces.
Little Loki hastily followed Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy as it also used its own skill to turn invisible.
Not long after Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Little Loki hid in the corner of the underwater cave, the army of zombie mermen consisting of more than fifty rotten mermen came to check the location of their previous battle.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could actually wipe all of them out right now by ambushing them using [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon], but she decided not to do it.
There was no guarantee that there would be no more zombie mermening here after she wiped this batch out, so it would be better to just ignore them.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy brought Little Loki to sneak past the army of zombie mermen and head to the direction where they came from instead.
Of course, she would never forget to stick to the cave wall while stealthily walking past those stinky mermen to keep her distance against them while using her palms to cover her mouth and nose tightly.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Little Loki entered a narrower long cave corridor.
The narrow long cave corridor was not dark at all.
On the contrary, not only was there fluorescence substance on the cave''s wall but there were even beautiful shiny crystal stgmites above.
Little Loki halted its step and looked up while its saliva was dripping out from its mouth.
When the perfect copy saw the beautiful shiny crystal stgmites above the cave corridor, she immediately felt some familiarity with it as if she had already seen it before.
''Since Little Loki looks so greedy at them, it means those crystal stgmites should be quite precious treasures, right?'' The perfect copy concluded in her mind.
Out of curiosity, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy decided to activate her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to check the description of the shiny crystal stgmites above the cave corridor.
---------------------------------------------
[100,000 years Stgmite Essense]
[Description: Extremely precious Stgmite Essence that has already aged for over 100,000 years.
Mix a tiny grain of it with a bucket of water, and it will be 100,000 years Stctite Milk ready for drink. It is sweet, creamy, refreshing, and delicious.
It can also be used to enhance the taste of any kind of cooking. Any kind of food or drink with bad taste will be extremely delicious and unforgettable with only one drop of this 100,000-year-old Stctite Milk.]
[Effect 1: Contains massive extremely pure spiritual energy that could greatly improve cultivation level without any side effects.]
[Effect 2: Clearing all impurities in the body, Qi, and soul to reach Pure Natural Spirit Body.]
[Effect 3: Nourishing and strengthening the soul and body without any side effects.]
---------------------------------------------
"Holy cow~! 100,000 years Stgmite Essense?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy grasped in shock and disbelief.
She immediately understood where the sense of familiarity came from.
Previously, Zi Yan obtained something called [10,000 years Stgmite Essense] from the fossil stone in a previous contest at the Myriad Foxes Academy.
At that time, the party host girl said that [10,000 years Stgmite Essense]''s value was actually not much less than the fragment of divine treasure obtained by Silly Fox which left a deep impression in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
But the one in front of her was not [10,000 years Stgmite Essense], but [100,000 years Stgmite Essense]!
Just because [100,000 years Stgmite Essense] had ten times the age of [10,000 years Stgmite Essense], it did not mean that the former was only 10 times more valuable than thetter.
ording to its rarity and overall effects, [100,000 years Stgmite Essense] should be more than just 100 times more precious than [10,000 years Stgmite Essense]. It was too valuable to estimate that the perfect copy''s brain was almost short-circuited when she thought about it.
She almost passed out in delight as she stared obsessively at the [100,000 years Stgmite Essense]on the cave''s ceiling.
"The value of this thing is inestimable!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy decided to stop thinking about the value and eximed in bliss.
"Wait a minute... The value of this thing should not be on the level of a mere light red dot, right?" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy asked skeptically.
But it did not take long for her to understand the reason...
Tang Li Xue only wished for the [Treasure Map] to show the location of treasures with abundant star energies and the treasures with star energies hidden in this ce were still far from being as precious as what she had found in the Medicine Garden Pce before.
"As I expect from the Secret Realm, there are so many precious treasures that can be found here~!" The perfect copy nodded her head while smiling joyfully.
She hastily canceled her [Ethereal Form] and used her [Energy Maniption] to create a rope with a w hook and a sword to cut or pry the [100,000 years Stgmite Essense].
There was a flying ban formation in this Secret Realm after all, so it would be futile for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to create something like a flying disc or any other kind of flying treasure with her [Energy Maniption].
Of course, she could also create some kinds of throwing weapons with her [Energy Maniption] and throw them at [100,000 years Stgmite Essense] from below, but she would rather not do it since it might ruin the [100,000 years Stgmite Essense] instead.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy threw the rope with a w hook to the cave''s wall and began to climb quickly.
Little Loki stared at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy strangely from below.
Well, it could actually use its [Phantom Splitters] to create nine clones first before using its [Instant Teleportation] and [Scythe w Qi] to harvest the [100,000 years Stgmite Essense] quickly.
But since Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not say anything to ask for its help, Little Loki decided just toze around instead.
Out of their expectations, the army of zombified mermen was actuallying back through the corridor cave again after they finished checking the previous location of the battle and failed to find anything suspicious!
That army of zombified mermen immediately noticed the perfect copy''s rope when they walked in the corridor cave.
Just as they looked up, they instantly saw Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy currently hanging on the cave''s ceiling like a strayed monkey!
"Damn it~! How could theye back here at a time like this?!" The perfect copy cursed in annoyance.
Luckily, those zombie mermen could not fly to approach Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, so their unbearable foul stench could not reach her for now.
But those zombie mermen were not giving up as they shot the water arrow spells from their mouths rapidly at Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy from below!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy who was currently hanging on the cave''s ceiling clearly could not dodge their attack, so she could only use her defensive divine abilities to protect herself!
[Reflective Barrier]~!
Transparent Barrier created from [Energy Maniption]~!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
The dozens of water arrow spells mercilessly struck the body of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
At first, some water arrow spells were reflected back by her [Reflective Barrier] and managed to injure some zombie mermen, but it did not affect them much since they could no longer feel any pain or have any fear of death.
It did not take long for her [Reflective Barrier] to crumble apart under the relentless assault of zombie mermen''s water arrow spells!
"These damn bast*rd~! I am going to ughter all of them first!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said in a tone filled with rage.
But before she could jump down from the ceiling to face the army of zombie mermen, Little Loki had already made its moves first!
[Phantom Splitter]''s nine clones~!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]~!
In that instant, more than fifty zombie mermen were instantly immobilized!
Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] might not be that useful against powerful foes like the previous scary moman in the fancy red dress, the old man with Heaven Edge Sword, or [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree], but it worked really well against weaker but numerous foes like these zombie mermen!
Little Loki might be really disgusted by the unbearable foul stench of these zombie mermen and did not dare to approach them since it has an extremely sharp sense of smell.
However, Little Loki could just let its nine clones tidy up those immobilized zombie mermen instead!
[sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Chapter 836 836: Powerful Zombie Mermen!
Chapter 836 836: Powerful Zombie Mermen!
??Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones chopped dozens of immobilized zombie mermen to pieces easily in only a few breaths of time!
Unfortunately, there were still a few zombie mermen that could escape from Little Loki''s [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] immobilizing effect since their position was on the edge of the [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]''s radius.
They were inside the narrow long cave corridor after all, so it made sense that not all the army of zombie mermen could enter the cave corridor.
"SCREEEECCH~!"
The survived zombie mermen suddenly let out an ear-piercing shrieking sound!
"Damn it~! Quickly shut them up, Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily urged Little Loki while she was still hanging on the cave''s ceiling and harvesting [100,000 years Stctite Essense] with thepressed white sword created from [Energy Maniption] in her grasp.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not even need to think too much to conclude that those zombie mermen should be shrieking to call for more reinforcement!
Before Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy warned it, Little Loki had already controlled its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones to silence those surviving zombie mermen!
[Instant Teleportation]~!
Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones instantly appeared around the surviving zombie mermen and unleashed their [Scythe w Qi] in unison!
More than a dozen surviving zombie mermen clearly could not dodge or escape from the [Scythe w Qi] that came from all directions at once!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
More than a dozen surviving zombie mermen got torn apart by [Scythe w Qi] without any chance to resist!
Unfortunately, Little Loki moved a bit toote since those zombie mermen already managed to let out an ear-piercing shrieking for a few moments before Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones finished all of them off.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gritted her pearl-white teeth as she activated her [Wings of Freedom] buff!
In that instant, her movement speed had increased several times!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy knew that the zombie mermen''s reinforcement woulde here really soon, so she could only increase her harvesting speed, so she could take away all [100,000 years Stctite Essense] as soon as possible before the zombie mermen''s reinforcemente!
But it was not that easy to harvest the [100,000 years Stctite Essense] since it was attached so firmly to the cave''s ceiling.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy only managed to harvest more than half of the [100,000 years Stctite Essense], she had already heard the rough sounds of footstepsing closer toward the narrow long cave corridor!
The zombie mermen''s reinforcement had actuallye faster than Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy expected!
Without any need for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy to say anything, Little Loki already knew that it had to prevent the zombie mermen''s reinforcement froming here and buying time for Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy until she harvested all [100,000 years Stctite Essense].
So, Little Loki immediately led its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones toward the end of the narrow long cave corridor to face the zombie mermen''s reinforcement!
"Go, Little Loki~! I am counting on you, my cutie~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy enthusiastically encouraged Little Loki.
Little Loki could only roll its eyes, but it still smugly puffed its chest without realizing it.
It did not take long for Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones to bump head-on with the zombie mermen''s reinforcement!
The number of zombie mermen''s reinforcement was not as many as Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Little Loki''s imagined, maybe only around forty to fifty.
But their types seemed even more varying than the previous low-level mermen!
There were around ten five-meter burly purple mermen with half of their bodies still in fish form, their bodies covered in thick armor-like scales, and they moved slithering like snakes. Each of them also held a heavy bone halberd.
There were also ten female versions of mermen. They had green scales covering their entire bodies, half of their body also in fish form, but different from the burly purple mermen, these female mermen had six arms holding sharp des in each of her hands and slender bodies.
With just one nce, anyone could tell that neither the burly purple mermen nor the female green mermen were easy to mess with!
WEEEEENG~!
Little Loki hastily activated its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] without any hesitation to restrain the army of mermen!
The movement of all low-level mermen was halted in that instant!
But the burly purple mermen and the female green mermen were not affected much except for their speed was slowed down to a certain extent.
Just like before, Little Loki did not n to get closer to any of those stinky mermen, so it only controlled its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones to attack those mermen! [sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi]~!
Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones rushed forward and entered the crowd of mermen without any fear, then unleashing their attack wantonly to kill everyone in their sight!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones easily diced the immobilized low-level mermen, but it was not the case with the burly purple mermen and the female green mermen!
Surprisingly, all of their attacks failed to cut through the burly purple mermen''s armor-like scales and tough muscr body, while the female green mermen managed to slippery dodge all of their attacks!
Then the burly purple mermen stomped their bone halberd onto the ground heavily!
BOOOOOOMM~!
The violent shockwave from that move stunned all of Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones and made them thrown off scatteredly in all directions!
The female green mermen took this chance to swiftly rush forward as the sharp des in their six arms danced around wildly but urately cut all of Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones to pieces!
Powerful, fast, and neat...
Little Loki''s usualzy expression changed to solemn as it realized that this army of mermen was much more troublesome than it had imagined.
The previous army of mermen only has strengthparable to the dried corpses in the Medicine Garden Pce, except that they have water bullet spells and bone spear weapons.
But this current army of mermen... especially those burly purple mermen and female green mermen, each of them has the strength equal to the giant crane from the Medicine Garden Pce.
Moreover, these burly purple mermen and female green mermen have impable coordination with each other as if it was already ingrained in their bones. It seemed they should have trained it diligently every day for a very long time when they were still alive.
Little Loki recognized their strength, thus it decided to fight them even more seriously.
Before those mermen could rush toward it, Little Loki''s tiny furry body suddenly swelled as it finally unleashed its Battle Form!
The tiny Little Loki transformed into the three-meter tall imposing figure covered with pitch-ck shiny scales.
A pair of glinted sharp ck horns on its forehead, a pair of strong ck wings on its back, and its extremely dense evil ck aura made it look even more dreadful and intimidating than ever.
In that instant, Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones that had been cut into tiny pieces by the female green mermen turned into ck smoke, then solidified again into nine identical Little Lokis in its Battle Form!
.....
When Little Loki''s battle against the powerful army of mermen entered the second phase, the worried Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy urged the real Tang Li Xue to help instead.
"Hey, what the heck are you doing?! Can you just stop ying with those snakes ande here to help me and Little Loki?!" The perfect copy angrily questioned Tang Li Xue.
"Ei, shut up~! Do you really think these snakes are easy to deal with?! If we do not clean them up right now, we will still deal with themter after we get the treasures and get out of that underwater cave!" Tang Li Xue replied in a displeasure tone.
"You did not deliberately fight for too long against those snakes just because you did not want to fight against those stinky mermen, right?" The perfect copy asked in a suspicious tone.
Tang Li Xue: "...."
"Hey, hey, hey... What is wrong with that long pause?! So, you really deliberately..." The perfect copy resentful said to the real Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue hastily denied it before she could finish her words.
"Of course... not~! I really have so much difficulty fighting against these snakes, okay?! Why don''t we just switch, and I will let you try to fight against these snakes instead right now?!" Tang Li Xue tried very hard to deny it.
Perfect copy''s pink lips twitched in aggrieved.
Without merging with [Golden Winged Serpent], how could she fight underwater against those huge snakes like the real Tang Li Xue?!
Actually, it was true that the real Tang Li Xue was really having some difficulties fighting against the group of huge snakes right now, but it did not mean that she really had no way of winning against them quickly.
From her [Regalia of Eclipse] to her [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes]... She could also cancel her Human Transfiguration Form and transform back to her Fox Form to regain her full strength.
But she did not use any of them yet since the unbearable foul stench from those mermen was truly lethal for her sharp fox nose that had already been enhanced further with [Extrasensory Perception].
The smell of the dried corpses and the other zombie creatures was already bad enough, but she could still clench her teeth and bear with them.
However, the unbearable foul stench from those mermen was many times worse than dried corpses and the other zombie creatures!
Chapter 837 837: [Golden Winged Serpent] Level Up!
Chapter 837 837: [Golden Winged Serpent] Level Up!
??After hesitating for a while, Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth as she decided to quickly conclude her battle against the group of huge snakes.
Even though the unbearable foul stench from those mermen was more than enough to make her traumatized for life, but she was really worried about Little Loki''s safety because it had to fight alone against those mermen to buy time for her perfect copy to harvest the [100,000 years Stctite Essense] right now.
Tang Li Xue released her grip on a dozen thick chains she created from her [Energy Maniption] to bind that group of huge snakes, so she would not be dragged around by them anymore.
But the group of huge snakes seemed to be much less energetic than before since Tang Li Xue had used her [Essence Devouring Technique] to continuously drain their energy when they dragged her around and made her crash heavily into reefs, boulders, and underwater mountains.
Thanks to that, the level of her Martial Soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], managed to grow stronger, and its level increased from level 12 to 16 in only a few minutes!

--------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue secretly sighed regretfully after she saw her [Golden Winged Serpent]''s growth spurt in only a few minutes.
If she had more free time, she was even willing to suffer and do it again for a few more hours to grind her [Golden Winged Serpent]''s level until it reached maximum level capacity for its current [Umon] Grade.
When Tang Li Xue busily checking her [Golden Winged Serpent]''s stat window in her System, the group of huge snakes took this chance to surround her from all directions instead!
"It was really fun to y with you all, but sadly, our ytime is over now." Tang Li Xue saidzily to the group of huge snakes that were already charged angrily toward her from all directions in unison.
Right before the group of huge snakes could reach Tang Li Xue, she instantly canceled her Human Transfiguration and transformed from her human form back to her fox form!
Not only that, Yaya who sat quietly all this time on Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder also turned into a green light and quickly merged into Tang Li Xue''s body.
Fox form + [Divine Possession] with Yaya + merging state with [Golden Winged Serpent]!
Tang Li Xue immediately unleashed her domain prototype once again!
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Moon Form~!
Mesmerizing silver light shone as a faint image of the moon formed behind Tang Li Xue!
In that instant, the unbearable cold aura quickly spread around in the deep underwater!
Different from before, the current Moon Form Domain Prototype was many times more powerful!
All of the huge snakes were frozen into ice sculptures before they could even touch any of Tang Li Xue''s silver fur!
"Goodbye, everyone~! It was fun ying with all of you~!" Tang Li Xue said in a teasing tone before she created a dozen white spears with her [Energy Maniption].
She did not forget to incorporate the most basic array consisting of [Sharp] rune, [Sturdy] rune, and [Energy Channeling] rune into all the white spears she created.
A dozen white spears moved swiftly under Tang Li Xue''s control toward the frozen huge snakes!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
The group of frozen huge snakes shattered to pieces like a bunch of fragile porcin as a dozen white spears collided with their frozen bodies! Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she saw all of the huge snakes'' bodies were broken to pieces.
She hastily canceled her [Divine Possession] with Yaya, and the merging state with [Golden Winged Serpent] to reserve her energy.
In that instant, Yaya got separated from Tang Li Xue''s body, and a pair of golden gauntlets equipped on her front paws disappeared as the [Golden Winged Serpent] returned into the ocean space inside Tang Li Xue''s Dantian.
Tang Li Xue also put Yaya into the windy mountain space in her Dantian before she activated the [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy.
Then she used her [Twin Moons] divine ability to un-summon and re-summon her perfect copy to her side.
Tang Li Xue immediately released Yaya from the windy mountain space in her Dantian.
"You and Yaya quickly go to help Little Loki! Leave the task to harvest these [100,000 years Stctite Essenses] to me~!" Tang Li Xue said bravely as if she was sacrificing herself to block all of the enemies alone.
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and puckered her mouth in disdain.
She knew exactly what was in the real Tang Li Xue''s mind, but she did not bother to squabble with Tang Li Xue at this moment.
The perfect copy hastily led Yaya toward the end of the narrow long cave corridor where Little Loki was currently fighting against the army of zombie mermen!
Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief again as she created a rope with a w hook and apressed sword with [Energy Maniption]
She used the rope with a w hook to climb the cave wall and began to use thepressed sword in her grasp to harvest the rest of [100,000 years Stctite Essense].
.....
Meanwhile, Little Loki in its battle form was really fighting fiercely against the army of zombie mermen.
Or to be more exact, it was its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones who were currently fighting fiercely against the army of zombie mermen.
The real Little Loki did not even dare to get close to those stinky zombie mermen.
If not for that, this battle might have already been won by Little Loki with its [Heaven''s Devour] since long ago.
Unfortunately, Little Loki also had a very sharp sense of smell like Tang Li Xue, so it was also really afraid of smelling those stinky zombie mermen from close range.
Its currently fifty-meter distance from those stinky zombie mermen was already Little Loki''s limit.
Every time those stinky zombie mermen dashed closer toward it, Little Loki would always use its [Instant Teleportation] to keep its distance from them.
All of the low-level zombie mermen had been in by Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones.
But the ten burly purple mermen and the ten female green mermen were apletely different storypared to those weakling low-level zombie mermen!
The ten burly purple mermen charged forward fearlessly and swung their heavy bone halberds like hammers toward nine [Phantom Splitter] clones!
It was not easy for Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones which were more than three meters tall to dodge their attack, so they decided to unleash [Scythe w Qi] instead!
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
The ten burly purple mermen''s heavy bone halberds shed head-on violently against the nine [Phantom Splitter] clones'' [Scythe w Qi]!
Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones were forced to take a few steps back leaving deep footprints on the ground because of the violent collision.
Right at this time, the ten female green mermen took this chance to swiftly slither toward Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones from the side and rear!
The burly purple mermen were sturdy and powerful, while the female green mermen were swift and deadly. Theyplement each other perfectly which made Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones face so much difficulty against them.
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
When the ten female green mermen shed their des at the nine [Phantom Splitter] clones, loud nging sounds echoed and me sparks flew everywhere as their de attacks failed to sh through Little Loki clones'' pitch-ck shiny scales!
Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones hastily counterattacked with [sh and sh]!
But those ten female green mermen easily parried the swift attacks from Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones using their six des holding tightly in their six arms!
At this moment, the ten burly purple mermen rushed toward Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones while stabbing their heavy bone halberds forward!
BOOOOOMM~!
The burly bodies of ten purple mermen crashed heavily against Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones like high-speed heavy-duty trucks!
The nine [Phantom Splitter] clones were pushed and fell to the ground.
The heavy bone halberds in the grasp of ten purple mermen managed to stab deeply into nine [Phantom Splitter] clones'' bodies!
The ten female green mermen quickly followed up with rapid swift shes urately toward the gap between nine [Phantom Splitter] clones'' pitch-ck shiny scales!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones were not only outnumbered but they were also overwhelmed by those mermen''s impable coordination even after they transformed into the Battle Form.
Little Loki who was watched from afar frowned deeply since these ten burly purple mermen and ten female green mermen were much more troublesome than it had expected.
Little Loki thought that it should be no problem for its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones in the Battle Form to win against these twenty mermen, but the reality was far from that.
On the contrary, its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones got overwhelmed easily in a short time instead.
Just when the ten burly purple mermen and ten female green mermen switched their attention to the real Little Loki, while Little Loki was already considering if it should run away from them or bait them to run in a circle...
"Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Yaya finally arrived there to help Little Loki.
Chapter 838 838: Resistant and Weakness!
Chapter 838 Chapter 838: Resistant and Weakness!
Little Loki''s eyes shone brightly in excitement when it saw Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Yaya.
Little Loki impatiently ran toward them without any hesitation!
"Thank goodness you are okay, Little Loki~! It seems you have already missed me so much, right? Come here, I will hug you now!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy joyously said as she opened her arms to hug LIttle Loki.
However, Little Loki quickly avoided Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and ran toward Yaya instead.
Yaya: "??!!!"
Yaya stared suspiciously at the current Little Loki in its Battle Form, but it did not take long for her to understand Little Loki''s true purpose foring at her.
"Grrawwrr~! Grrr Raaawrrr Grraaarrr~?!" (My Little Friend, Yaya~! Can you please use your wind ability to get rid of their unbearable stench~?!)
Little Loki''s usual cute meowing voice changed into an intimidating growl and roar voice after it transformed into its Battle Form, but Yaya could understand it perfectly since their minds still connected through Tang Li Xue.
At this moment, the ten burly purple mermen and the ten female green mermen had already managed to shred Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones to pieces, and it might take a while for Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones to recover back to normal again.
The army of mermen immediately rushed toward Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy group without stopping!
Before the army of mermen could even get too close, their unbearable foul stench already almost knocked Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy, Yaya, and Little Loki down!
Yaya instantly understood the meaning of Little Loki''s previous request, so she hastily made her moves before the army of mermen reached their group!
[Dissonance Melody]~!
This [Dissonance Melody] could not only make all of the foes in a certain radius feel sore eyes and dizzy, thus decreasing their uracy by a lot, but it also made the surrounding wind be extremely chaotic, so it would decrease the power of the opponent''s wind elemental ability by more than 75%.
This skill should be the nemesis for all creatures with wind elemental abilities, but unfortunately, it was not very useful against this army of mermen.
However, this [Dissonance Melody] actually could disperse the unbearable foul stench around them which was what they really needed in this situation!
The eyes of Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy and Little Loki were shining brightly in excitement.
"Good job, Yaya~! You are truly our favorite child~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy praised Yaya while patting her small head gently.
Yaya smugly puffed out her chest as she put her small hands on her waist and showed a cute proud smile on her face.
Even Little Loki who always looked down on everyone looked at Yaya in admiration right now.
The powerful ten burly purple mermen plus the ten female green mermen were not really affected by Yaya''s [Dissonance Melody].
But their movement speed still slowed down to a certain extent after they entered the radius of Yaya''s [Dissonance Melody].
"Let''s go and finish them off quickly, little guys! So, we can proceed to find the treasures in this underwater cave as soon as possible!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy urged Little Loki and Yaya.
Then Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy added again in a stern tone: "Yaya, please do not get carried out and use your [Cyclone Storm] carelessly. If this underwater cave copses because of it, we will all be in big trouble!"
Yaya nodded her tiny head obediently with a serious expression after she heard the perfect copy''s warning.
[Scythe w Qi]~!
[Vacuum sh]~!
Little Loki and Yaya unleashed their offensive skill toward the approaching army of mermen at the same time!
BANG~! BANG~!
However, their attacks were easily blocked by the ten burly purple mermen who were advancing forward like a bunch of imprable shield tanks!
The green female mermen took cover behind ten burly purple mermen, they could also move very fast, cunningly, and sneakily so it was not easy to target them.
"Tsk~! What an annoying stinky fishes! No wonder Little Loki faces so much difficulty fighting against them just now." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy murmured in a tone filled with annoyance.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy immediately decided to fight more seriously.
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
A brilliant golden light shone as a faint image of the sun formed behind Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
BWOOOOSH~!
The space around her was instantly lit in golden me.
The searing heat made the army of mermen halt their movement in hesitation.
[Sun Dragon ws] plus [Sharp Edge Power]~!
[Sun Dragon Fangs]~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy condensed a pair of dragon ws and a dragon head, but their color was not deep blue like me of Pride but golden like sun me!
Normally, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could not use [Sun Dragon ws] or [Sun Dragon Fangs] since she did not have [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline in her body like her real self, but she cleverly condensed them using her Profound Law of Heat right now!
Under the power of the Sun Form domain prototype, the might of her variant version of [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs] was increased several times!
She even enhanced the sharpness of [Sun Dragon ws] with [Sharp Edge Power] buff!
ROOOAAAAAARRRR~!
"It is not over yet~!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sneered as she raised her slender hand and the deep purple lightning sparks began to spread around her!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The rumbling sound of thunder echoed inside the underwater cave when the deep purple lightning condensed into a majestic figure!
[World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]~!
Purple lightning and thunder intertwined with each other, and it condensed to form a dark purple lightning dragon!
The majestic one-hundred-foot-tall deep purple lightning dragon appeared side by side with [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs]!
"I want to see if you all can withstand the attacks from my fire and lightning dragons!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy said as she controlled the [Sun Dragon ws], [Sun Dragon Fangs], and [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] to charge head-on against the army of mermen!
BOOOOOOOMMM~!
Even the ten burly purple mermen could no longer persist under the torture of the perfect copy''s me and lightning dragons!
The ten burly purple mermen were thrown off back more than a hundred meters until they crashed heavily onto the cave''s wall!
Their bodies were charred ck by golden me and deep purple lightning!
The burly purple mermen might be extremely resistant to any physical attacks, but they were actually surprisingly weak against the perfect copy''s me and lightning.
But it made sense since both the perfect copy''s me and lightning were notmon at all.
The golden me had been strengthened by her Profound Law of Heat and Sun Form Domain prototype, while the deep purple lightning had the trace of the terrifying ninth lightning tribtion that Tang Li Xue had faced before.
Little Loki and Yaya immediately took this chance tounch their attack on the ten female green mermen!
Without the protection from the ten burly purple mermen as their shield tanker, the female green mermen who always acted like poisonous assassins were leftpletely defenseless!
Little Loki urged its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones that just barely recovered to use [Instant Teleportation], then they instantly appeared around the ten female green mermen!
Yaya unleashed so many of her [Compressed Wind des] mercilessly at the ten female green mermen!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
But those ten female green mermen agilely moved their bodies to the right and left to dodge some of Yaya''s [Compressed Wind des] while using the six des in their six arms to block the other densely packed [Compressed Wind des]!
Right at this time, Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones suddenly shed toward the ten female green mermen and took the opportunity when they were too upied blocking Yaya''s [Compressed Wind des] tounch their fatal finishing moves!
[sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones cut off the ten female green mermen''s heads and arms in the blink of an eye!
To make sure that they would not resurrect again, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily burned their mutted bodies with her Golden Sun me to ashes.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sighed in relief as she quickly canceled her [Sun Dragon ws], [Sun Dragon Fangs], and [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] to save her remaining energy.
She had to admit that using all of those at the same time really drained her energy and stamina too rapidly.
If those mermen could hold on for a few moments longer, she might be the one who was exhausted first, and their situation at that time would surely reversed instead.
Little Loki also immediately canceled its Battle Form and all of its [Phantom Splitter] Clones.
"Good job, you guys~! But let''s get away from this ce quickly before more of those mermen reinforcementse!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy smiled and patted at the tiny heads of Little Loki and Yaya before she led them deeper into the underwater cave.
"Wait! Let''s go together!" At this moment, the real Tang Li Xue finally caught up with them and called them from behind after she harvested all of the [100,000 years Stctite Essense] in the narrow long cave corridor''s ceiling.
The perfect copy stared at Tang Li Xue suspiciously and asked: "You... did not wait until we finished our battle first before showing up, right?"
Tang Li Xue: "....."
The perfect copy''s expression darkened as she asked again: "You really don''t..."
"Of course... not~! How could you think of me like that?!" Tang Li Xue hastily cut her off halfway.
"Then what is wrong with your long pause?!" The perfect copy asked in an unconvinced tone.
"Ei, shut up~! Let''s get away from this ce quickly before more of those mermen reinforcementse!" Tang Li Xue urged them as she hastened her step and went ahead of them.
"Ah~! That is my words! You even steal my words!" The perfect copy eximed in agitation as she quickly chased after Tang Li Xue.
Little Loki rolled its eyes when it saw the perfect copy kept quarreling with Tang Li Xue like a pair of children, but it stillzily jumped and sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s head while Yaya obediently flew and sat on Tang Li Xue''s left shoulder.
Chapter 839 839: Underwater Palace!
Chapter 839 839: Underwater Pce!
??After five minutes or so, Tang Li Xue''s group reached the huge space in the underwater cave.
In the middle of the huge space, there was actually a colorful luxurious pce guarded by many zombie mermen!
The colorful pce looked so beautiful and grand since every tile and brick seemed to be made from the best quality coral stones containing dense spiritual energy.
Living inside this colorful luxurious pce would not only increase cultivation speed tremendously but it would also extend the lifespan to a certain extent.
Currently, Tang Li Xue and her group were hiding behind a huge boulder while secretly peeking at the colorful luxurious pce from afar.
"Wow, that pce looks so cool~! Is that Underwater Dragon Pce?" Tang Li Xue eximed in awe.
Even the perfect copy stared at the colorful luxurious pce greedily and said in an excited tone: "Can we take that pce back home? I want to try to live in that pce like a real queen!"
Tang Li Xue immediately replied: "That is really a good idea. That pce is too big to put into our space pouch, but we can dismantle all the furniture, tiles, bricks, and roof first before we put it into our space pouch. We can just re-assemble it again after we return back home."
"What a brilliant idea~! Just as I expected from my genius self!" The perfect copy praised Tang Li Xue in admiration.
Both Little Loki and Yaya silently rolled their eyes when they heard the conversation between Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy.
This was clearly not the right time for them to discuss how to rob... err, I mean how to bring home the luxurious underwater pce, right?!
Did you not see that there were so many zombie mermen guarding and patrolling around the luxurious pce?!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy stopped joking around and began to carefully count the number of zombie mermen.
Ten... Thirty.... Fifty...
One hundred... One hundred fifty... two hundred...
All right, that is enough...
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy immediately decided to stop counting, or they might really lose their couragepletely, decide to give up on the spot, and just want to run away as soon as possible from here in despair.
Yes, there were actually more than two hundred zombie mermen guarding and patrolling around the luxurious pce.
Most of them were low-level zombie mermen maybe there were more than one hundred of them.
The burly purple mermen and female green mermen numbered around fifty each.
To make it worse, there was still a new type of zombie merman which Tang Li Xue''s group had never seen so far numbered around ten or so.
Their bodies were covered in thick crimson carapace. They have crab-like w hands, but they were walking with two feet like humans.
Each of them was also holding a thick and heavy bone trident in their grasp.
These crimson carapace mermen looked much more muscr, bigger, sturdier, and stronger than even the burly purple mermen.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could faintly sense a dangerous aura from them even when they were still standing so far from those crimson carapace mermen.
If the strength of the low-level mermen was only around the Acupuncture Opening Stage or the Foundation Establishment Stage.
While the strength of the burly purple mermen and female green mermen were around the Core Formation Stage.
Then the strength of these crimson carapace mermen should be around Nascent Soul Stage.
Moreover, it was still unknown if there would be other stronger versions of mermen waiting inside that luxurious underwater pce.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy frowned deeply in worry while muttering: "What the heck is that? Crab generals or something? Don''t tell me that there would be Prime Minister Tortoise and Dragon Emperor inside that pce?"
"Well, maybe. But who cares about that, right?! It is not like we will have a seafood banquetter! We do not need to care if there would be fish, snakes, tortoises, or crabs. What we have to think about is how to enter that pce and take away the treasures inside it?!" Tang Li Xue emphasized their objective in a firm tone.
Tang Li Xue''s question immediately stumped her perfect copy, Yaya, and Little Loki.
Using [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment] to stealthy pass those mermen and sneak into the luxurious pce might work against most of those mermen, but if the crimson carapace mermen had the ability to sense their souls with divine sense, then their idea would be the same asmitting suicide.
Tang Li Xue instantly rejected that idea on the spot.
Then she patted her perfect copy''s shoulder while grinning mischievously at her: "It seems I can only count on you again this time~!" The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and groaned inint: "Aisss~! So, I still have to do the ''Baiting'' n again in the end!"
Yes, Tang Li Xue still thought that their usual ''Baiting'' n routine was still the best, safest, and mostfortable n to do.
Just like before, her perfect copy would be acting as a distraction to attract those mermen''s attention, and when those mermen were busily chasing her perfect copy, their team would secretly sneak into the luxurious underwater pce to find the treasures.
There were many merits and almost no demerits in this n.
First, Tang Li Xue could easily re-summon her perfect copy to her side if her perfect copy was thrown in dangerter.
Second, if they met with any danger inside the underwater pceter, Tang Li Xue could store Yaya and Little Loki in her Dantian space, then she could use her [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy at any time to get out from the underwater pce.
Tang Li Xue did not want to hear her perfect copy annoying nag andint, so she quickly pushed her out from behind the boulder while saying in an encouraging tone: "Stop rambling and just go now, so we can get this done quickly!"
The perfect copy could only sigh helplessly at Tang Li Xue''s clone abusive behavior.
Unfortunately, there was no Clone Rights Bureau in this Immortal World, or Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy would have already reported her real self long ago.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not immediately charge forward blindly to attract the attention of all mermen.
She secretly observed the patrolling pattern of those mermen while resting to recover her energy.
She had already spent most of her energy in the previous battle after using [Sun Dragon ws], [Sun Dragon Fangs], and [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] along with her Sun Form Domain Prototype after all.
Tang Li Xue also understood that fact, and she no longer urged her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue decided to take a rest with Little Loki and Yaya too.
She took some food, drinks, and beast cores, then began to eat along with Little Loki and Yaya.
The perfect copy''s pink lips twitched violently in aggravation when she knew what Tang Li Xue was doing right now, and she almost could not hold her urge toe back and scold Tang Li Xue harshly.
There was no difference between noon and night inside this underwater cave since it was only illuminated by colorful fluorescence substances on the ground, wall, and ceiling.
After resting for two hours or so, the condition of Little Loki, Yaya, Tang Li Xue, and her perfect copy had been adjusted back to their peak.
Thus Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy started to make her move to act as bait and attract those mermen.
She patiently waited when most of the crimson carapace mermen gathered in one ce before she rushed forward bravely while waving her slender hand...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The rumbling sound of thunder echoed inside the underwater cave when the deep purple lightning condensed into a majestic figure!
[World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]~!
Purple lightning and thunder intertwined with each other, and it condensed to form a dark purple lightning dragon!
The dark purple lightning dragon shed toward several crimson carapace mermen in the blink of an eye!
BOOOOOOOMM~!
All of the nearby low-level mermen were blown to ashes in an instant, while the burly purple mermen and female green mermen were thrown dozens of meters as their bodies charred ck.
However, the crimson carapace mermen acted so fast by blocking the dark purple lightning dragon''s attack with the heavy bone trident in their grasp.
Not to mention that their thick crimson carapace acted like spirit armor treasure to protect their bodies, so they were almost unscathed even after receiving the [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]''s attack head-on!
Even though the perfect copy''s [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] attack only managed to push them back for a few steps, but they were still very enraged by the perfect copy''s sudden attack which had wiped out more than a dozen of theirrades.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not wait for their brutal counterattack as she hastily activated her [Wind Burst Step] to run away from them!
So many vengeful mermen quickly chased after Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy without any hesitation!
Out of her expectations, the crimson carapace mermen could actually run so fast to chase after her from behind, even though their sideway running posture was really creepy to behold, but at least, the perfect copy''s task had been carried out perfectly so far.
Tang Li Xue took Little Loki and Yaya into the windy mountain area inside her Dantian Space before she activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment] to turn herself invisible and undetectable.
The guards around the luxurious underwater pce were thinning a lot after the perfect copy lured most of them to chase after her, so Tang Li Xue could take this opportunity to sneak into the underwater pce easily.
But sneaking into the underwater pce was only the first step. Their next step was the most important part which was to find the treasure storage room as soon as possible!
Chapter 840 840: Great Disaster!
Chapter 840 Chapter 840: Great Disaster!
.....
While Tang Li Xue and her group were busily sneaking into the underwater pce to find the treasures, something horrible was actually happening outside theke!
In the middle of the dark forest, the strange creature shrouded in ck fog-like energy was silently digesting the Star Essence it extracted from [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] before.
The substance with the highest concentration of star energy of the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] was actually not in its Radiant Star Fruits, but this Star Essense inside its body.
If Tang Li Xue managed to obtain and consume this Star Essence from [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree], the star energy she obtained would have far exceeded the requirement needed for her evolution to [Rare]-Grade Beast.
Of course, it should be impossible for Tang Li Xue to do it with her current strength since obtaining the Star Essense from [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] meant she had to defeat the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] first, while she already almost got killed by [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] before when she stole its Radiant Star Fruits.
Not to mention that the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] definitely has more dangerous trump cards other than its [Ster Explosion Beam].
But this strange creature was on apletely different level.
It could defeat the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] so quickly without any difficulty.
The [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] did not even have any strength to fight back at all, so it was not strange that the members of the exploration team including Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan could only find some fragments from [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s shattered body when they came to explore the Medicine Garden Pce after that.
The palpitating horrible aura emitted from the strange creature''s body became increasingly terrifying with each passing second as it absorbed the abundant star energy from [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s Star Essence.
After itpletely digested the Star Essence, the strange creature slowly opened its bloody crimson eyes, and a tremendous terrifying aura burst out from its body.
"ROOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR~!"
It suddenly let out a ghastly earth-shattering roar which shook the entire Secret Realm!
All of the zombified creatures inside the Secret Realm who never fear any pain or death were shuddering and prostrate in horror as if they just heard their absolute ruler''s shout!
Even the expressions of Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and all of the members of the exploration team turned very solemn and tense as cold sweat soaked their foreheads and the back of their clothes.
The strange creature shrouded in ck fog-like energy turned into a ck sh as it moved very quickly toward the corner of the Secret Realm!
At the corner of the Secret Realm, there was a fragmented space caused by the broken space tunnel!
That fragmented space was the strange creature''s current target!
.....
Qin Sheng and the rest of the exploration team members outside the Secret Realm had been working extremely hard without sleeping all this time to stabilize the Secret Realm''s entrance.
They were doing it so everyone who entered the Secret Realm would still have a way to get out of the Secret Realm.
But they never expected that the monstrous creature trapped inside the Secret Realm was nning to use the Secret Realm''s entrance to get out from the Secret Realm instead right now!
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The entire gorge shook greatly as something extremely powerful suddenly impacted the Secret Realm''s entrance!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
All of the exploration team members outside the Secret Realm were violently thrown away more than a hundred meters and spurted out several mouthfuls of blood from their mouths!
Only Qin Sheng could still stand steadily on his feet without being affected by the powerful shockwave!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
The eight different colored pearls that were rotating around the Space Realm''s entrance exploded to dust in the blink of an eye!
"Not good~!" Qin Sheng shouted in panic as his handsome face grimaced in dread.
He hastily approached the Secret Realm''s entrance and immediately unleashed his over one-hundred-meter-tall Fox Spirit Avatar!
An enormous four-tail fox d in crimson me instantly appeared, then it used all of its limbs and four tails to stabilize the Space Realm''s entrance!
Qin Sheng''s face turned red as he exerted all of his strength to keep the Space Realm''s entrance intact!
Right at this time, a pair of ck ws suddenly emerged from the almost copsed Secret Realm''s entrance!
Qin Sheng dropped his jaw in horror, shock, and disbelief!
It was alreadymon sense that they had to connect the two coordinates from two entrances of the two sides in order for them to be able to enter or get out safely from the Secret Realm.
In short, the exploration team members inside the Secret Realm must also set up space equipment and formation to build another entrance first before they can cooperate in connecting the two entrances of the two sides just like building a bridge between two inds.
But this monstrous creature could actually ignore that and forcefully barge into the fragmented space caused by the broken space tunnel, then it even managed to sessfully reach the other side!
To make it easy to understand, the monstrous creature basically jumped into the sea and forcefully swam until it reached the other ind!
However, we were talking about ''space'' here which was countless times more dangerous than any ''sea'', any other creatures would be torn to nothingness once they dared to recklessly dive into it!
No wonder Qin Sheng was extremely surprised that the monstrous creature could rely on thebination of its terrifying strength, its strange ck energy, and its unbelievable regeneration speed to sessfully do it!
Qin Sheng was currently extremely upset and confused about what it had to do right now!
On one side, he had to maintain the Secret Realm''s entrance, so Zhu Jun, Zhu Zhenhua, and the other exploration team members could still get out of theSecret Realmter.
On the other side, he did not want this monstrous creature to get out of the Secret Realm and step into the Lightwind Continent since it would definitely bring unprecedented disaster into this Lightwind Continent!
Qin Sheng could only prevent the monstrous creature from stepping into Lightwind Continent by destroying the Secret Realm''s entrance on his side, but it also meant he wouldpletely bury Zhu Jun, Zhu Zhenhua, and the other exploration team members in the Secret Realm forever!
"Xiao Hua, Father-in-Law... What should I do now? What would you do if you were in my ce?" Qin Sheng gnashed his teeth in hesitation and frustration.
.....
Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua, who were sitting cross-legged while recovering their wounds and energy, immediately ended their meditation and opened their eyes after they heard the monstrous creature''s earth-shattering roar.
Both of them had a hunch that the monstrous creature wanted to do something really bad right now!
Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua were thousands of years old foxes. They already explored so many ces and faced so many dangerous situations, so their hunches had been honed to be extremely urate.
Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua nced at each other with tense and solemn expressions as they hastily dashed toward the direction of the monstrous creature''s roar.
The monstrous creature was extremely arrogant, so it never had any intention to hide itself.
The monstrous creature basically bulldozed everything in its way whether they were trees, bushes, or zombie creatures, so Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua could easily follow its track.
It did not take long for Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua to reach the corner of the Secret Realm, where the fragmented space caused by the broken space tunnel is located.
They also finally realized what the monstrous creature had nned to do right now!
"This bast*rd is very cunning. It actually wants to get out of this Secret Realm! Let''s stop it quickly!" Zhu Jun urged Zhu Zhenhua in an urgent tone before he swiftly approached the fragmented space.
"Yes, dad~!" Zhu Zhenhua nodded her head with a solemn expression as she followed Zhu Jun closely from behind.
Both Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua hastily unleashed their respective Fox Spirit Avatars without any hesitation!
Zhu Jun''s Spirit Avatar was an over one hundred-meter tall four-tail fox shrouded in sacred golden light with the enormous Golden Wheel of Fortune behind it.
While Zhu Zhenhua''s Spirit Avatar was an over one hundred-
meter tall four-tail icy blue fox that emitted an unbearable cold aura.
Both Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhu controlled their Spirit Avatars to forcefully drag out the monstrous creatures from the fragmented space!
Of course, the monstrous creature refused to give up and still clung tightly to the other side''s entrance!
Then the the tug of war between the three True Spirit Beast level foxes and the monstrous creature was locked in stalemate at this moment!
But the final result of this tug of war could not be taken lightly since it would decide the future of the Lightwind Continent!
Both Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua secretly suspected that this monstrous creature was actually the main culprit behind the fall of the ancient sect in this Secret Realm.
If this monstrous creature managed to get out from this Secret Realm and step into the Lightwind Continent, then there would be no doubt that the entire Lightwind Continent would be flipped upside down by this monstrous creature and turn into something simr to this Secret Realm sooner orter!
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue and her group still had not realized the great struggle between good and evil out there as they sessfully sneaked into the luxurious underwater pce.
Chapter 841 841: Enormous Stone Statue!
Chapter 841 Chapter 841: Enormous Stone Statue!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Tang Li Xue staggered a bit as the entire luxurious underwater pce suddenly shook for a few moments.
Tang Li Xue frowned while thinking in displeasure: ''What a crappy underwater pce is this?! It can suddenly shake like this even though nothing is happening. Would it really copse if we fight fiercely insideter?''
Yaya and Little Loki nodded their tiny heads in agreement at the same time.
Tang Li Xue was still in her [Ethereal Form] which made herpletely invisible.
Even her [Art of Concealment] had be more subtle after she practiced it diligently for around one month or so which made her much harder to detect than before.
Yaya and Little Loki already activated their respective stealth skills to turn themselves invisible while sitting on Tang Li Xue''s head and shoulder.
Despite herint and displeasure, Tang Li Xue did not slow down her speed as she swiftly entered the underwater pce.
There were double metal gates at the underwater pce''s entrance, but they were opened widely as if they were not afraid that someone would dare to sneak into the underwater pce.
After passing through the double metal gates, Tang Li Xue stepped into the huge bright hall.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly in frustration as she felt like she would have a phobia for the huge hall sooner orter at this rate.
But when Tang Li Xue saw an over one-hundred-meter-tall stone statue facing the entrance in the middle of the huge bright hall, she quickly took a few steps back in reflex.
Different from Tang Li Xue''s expectations, the giant statue inside thisrge hall was not the statue of the Dragon God, but the statue of the Queen of the Sea.
It was a beautifuldy with her lower-half snake body and her upper-half human body.
The beautifuldy wore a gaudy-looking imperial dress, a golden crown with dozens of colorful gems on her head, and holding a crystal trident with both of her hands.
Anyone could easily tell in one nce that this giant stone statue was made from extraordinary materials. Even her essories and weapon looked incredibly precious.
Just by standing there quietly, Tang Li Xue could feel the intimidating aura from this giant Queen of the Sea statue.
Tang Li Xue had already prepared to activate her [Shadow sh] to run away as quickly as possible from here if this giant Queen of the Sea statue moved.
After a few minutes had passed and Tang Li Xue did not feel any danger from the giant stone statue, she finally sighed in relief.
Tang Li Xue began to examine the giant Queen of the Sea statue closer whilementing in a leisurely tone: "Not bad, the statue of thisdy is quite beautiful. Unfortunately, she is still far from being as good-looking as me."
"I wonder if I can also disassemble this statue and take it back home? It would look really good if I could put it in my courtyard, right? What do you two think?" Tang Li Xue pondered while asking Little Loki and Yaya.
Then Tang Li Xue heard a soft giggling sound.
The giggling sound was almost inaudible, but in this quiet big hall, any small sound could easily echo which made the giggling sound could be heard by Tang Li Xue.
At first, Tang Li Xue did not think much about it.
But when Tang Li Xue looked up, her eyes actually met with the eyes of the Queen of the Sea statue staring at her with a yful smile on her face!
"Holy smokes~!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she almost pissed on her pants... or her dress to be exact, and she hastily jumped back further from the Queen of the Sea statue.
Little Loki and Yaya had already stood up vigntly on Tang Li Xue''s shoulders, and they were already prepared to face the Queen of the Sea statue.
Before Tang Li Xue could activate her [Shadow sh] to escape, the giant Queen of the Sea statue hastily said to her in a gentle tone: "Don''t be afraid, Little Fox~! I do not mean any harm to you."
Tang Li Xue halted her movement and did not immediately use her [Shadow sh], but she still raised her vignce to the maximum.
Just because this giant statue was talking so kindly and gently to her just now, it did not mean that it was truly kind and gentle.
Tang Li Xue had already long been traumatized by the ''gentle and kind'' fox all this time, so the more ''gentle and kind'' behavior shown by anyone to her, the more she would be suspicious of them.
If Instructor Mei Lan could hear Tang Li Xue''s current thoughts, she might be really happy and praise Tang Li Xue by saying: ''Smart children can be taught.''
Then she would reward Tang Li Xue with her fists of love until Tang Li Xue cried and begged for mercy.
The Queen of the Sea statue did not feel offended at all by Tang Li Xue''s vignce.
It was normal for everyone to be suspicious of a stone statue like her.
Tang Li Xue and the Queen of the Sea statue stared at each other for a few minutes, and the atmosphere between them was really awkward.
The Queen of the Sea statue finally could not bear it anymore and decided to greet Tang Li Xue first: "Wee, Little Fox, to the Xianyun Lake Pce. I am the treasure spirit of this Xianyun Lake Pce."
"Treasure... spirit?" Tang Li Xue murmured in confusion.
"That is right. How about you, Little Fox?How did you get here? Have the terrible monsters outside already left?" The Queen of the Sea statue asked several questions in a curious tone.
"I... My name is Tang Li Xue. As for how I can get here... My teacher bought the treasure map leading to this Secret Realm, and he brought me here with him." Tang Li Xue exined to the Queen of the Sea statue.
As for terrible monsters outside, Tang Li Xue did not quite understand what the statue of Sea Queen meant.
Does she mean those zombie creatures outside?
But those zombie creatures should not be terrible enough to terrify this statue of Sea Queen, right?
"I see... So, youe here with your teacher by chance." The statue of Sea Queen nodded her head in understanding.
Tang Li Xue felt really curious so she decided to ask: "Terrible monsters outside? Do you mean those zombie creatures outside?"
"Zombie? What is that? Oh, so you called those terrible monsters Zombie? But that is strange. If you meet with those terrible monsters with your current strength, they should have already killed and eaten you on the spot. So, how could you still stand alive here right now?" The statue of Sea Queen muttered in confusion.
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Well, their conversation was clearly not on the same page at all...
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and pondered for a while.
"What kind of monsters do you mean? There are so many living corpses wandering outside. Are they the ones you mean?" Tang Li Xue asked again.
But the statue of Sea Queen shook her head and exined: "Not them... Those living corpses are only dead bodies affected by those terrible monsters'' aura."
"I see... So, you have not met with any of those terrible monsters yet. Your luck is very good. No wonder you can reach this ce alive." The statue of Sea Queen concluded.
Tang Li Xue immediately understood that she should have never met with those terrible monsters yet.
Tang Li Xue began to worry about Teacher Li Wei, Instructor Mei Lan, and Silly Fox''s safety, but there should be nothing she could do with her current strength since those terrible monsters should be extremely powerful ording to the Statue of Sea Queen''s description.
In the end, her evolution to [Rare]-Grade beast should still be the first priority.
Only by evolving to [Rare]-Grade beast that she could quickly gain a tremendous power boost to deal with any danger or monster.
It would be best if she could just evolve in this underwater pceter.
Tang Li Xue mustered up her courage and asked the Statue of Sea Queen: "Err, Auntie Treasure Spirit... Can you please tell me where the treasures with star energy are stored?"
"The treasures with star energy? I do not know." The Statue of Sea Queen shook her head.
"How could you not know?! Aren''t you the treasure spirit of this pce?" Tang Li Xue eximed in disbelief.
The Statue of Sea Queen rolled her eyes and replied: "I am only in charge of guarding this pce, not to store or check the treasures in this pce."
Tang Li Xue raised her vignce again as she put her battle stance.
"What are you doing?" The Statue of Sea Queen asked strangely.
"Aren''t you in charge of guarding this pce? Would it mean you will stop me from robbing... I meant from taking the treasures in this pce?" Tang Li Xue asked again.
The Statue of Sea Queen chuckled in amusement and replied: "Why should I stop you?"
"Why not~?!" Tang Li Xue felt their conversation got weirder and weirder.
"There are no more living creatures in this underwater pce. Those treasures arepletely useless if no one uses them. So, I think it would be best if you just take those treasures away rather than having them collecting dust here." The Statue of Sea Queen reasonably exined to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
''Well, that surely makes sense... But, but...'' Tang Li Xue suddenly felt her IQ was no longer enough toprehend the Statue of Sea Queen''s words.
Chapter 842 842: Egg Incubation Room!
??After hearing the Statue of Sea Queen''s reasonable exnation, Tang Li Xue got bolder, so she showed her bright stunning smile and shamelessly asked another question: "Then can you tell me where the treasure room is?"
If Tang Li Xue dared to ask this question to another pce guardian, there was no doubt that she would get rewarded with scolding and pping instead.
Fortunately, the Statue of Sea Queen did not care and generously told Tang Li Xue about it: "Treasure room? It is hard to say the location of the treasure room because it depends on what treasures you are looking for."
"You can see that there are three stairs in this front hall that lead to the three different directions."
"The stairs on my right lead to the armory, most weapons and armor stored there might have been eaten by time and broken, but you should still be able to find a few precious weapons and armor stored there."
"The stairs on my left are heading to the egg incubation room. Just like the armory, all eggs stored there should have been rotted, but there is an extremely high-grade spiritual spring pool in that egg incubation room."
"If you can soak yourself and your two little friends in that pool, the strength of the three of you will definitely increase rapidly in a short time."
"Lastly, the stairs behind me will lead you to herb and elixir room. I am not sure if there is still anything good there since most of herbs and elixirs might have already decayed after storing them for such a very long time."
The Statue of Sea Queen really told everything she knew in detail.
The eyes of Little Loki and Yaya were shining brightly in delight when they heard about the extremely high-grade spiritual spring pool.
While Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brightly in excitement when she heard about the pill and elixir room.
Before Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki made their decision, the Statue of Sea Queen hesitated and added a few more warnings: "As you can see, I can only move around this front hall, those three stairs, and the corridors after those three stairs. I already cleaned all of the filthy living corpses around there, but I cannot ess those three ces."
"So, the you three must be careful when you explore those three ces since you might have to face living corpses nested inside those ces. I can sense from their filthy aura that some of them are quite powerful."The Statue of Sea Queen kindly reminded.
The Statue of Sea Queen was actually genuinely worried about Tang Li Xue and her group.
It had already been too long since the Statue of Sea Queen had seen any guests, so she surely did not want her first guests after such a very long time also turned into living corpses in less than one day.
"Thank you very much... err, Miss Statue..." Tang Li Xue bashfully thanked the Statue of Sea Queen, but it was really awkward to call the Statue of Sea Queen ''Miss Statue''.
The Statue of Sea Queen giggled and said: "You can call me, Xi''er. Everyone has called me that... Well, it was a long time ago."
Tang Li Xue could hear a hint of sorrow in Xi''er''s tone, so she immediately introduced herself too to cheer Xi''er a bit: "My name is Tang Li Xue. You can call me Little Sister Tang, Little Xue, or whatever you like."
Then she patted at Little Loki and Yaya''s tiny heads while introducing them one by one to Xi''er: "This sweet little one is called Yaya, while the cute ck kitten is called Little Loki."
"Yaaa Yaya Ya~! (Nice to meet you~!)" Yaya cheerfully waved her hands and greeted Xi''er.
"Meow Nyaaw Mew Nyeeaaw~? (Since we have got all the information we need, can I eat her already now?)" Little Loki asked as it greedily stared at Xi''er while licking its lips.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly after she heard Little Loki''s unkind request.
Fortunately, Xi''er could not understand Little Loki''s catnguage and thought that it was Little Loki''s ''unique'' way of greeting her instead.
"Hello, everyone~! It is nice to meet you all. It is been a long time since I chatted with anyone. Can you all please talk to me about the world outsideter after you get all the treasures you want?" Xi''er asked affectionately at Tang Li Xue and her group.
Tang Li Xue instantly felt very sorry for Xi''er.
Xi''er should have been trapped alone in this ce for a very long time.
Tang Li Xue finally understood why Xi''er was so kind and courteous when she met and talked to them. She even gave them so much crucial information and warned them about the danger without holding anything back.
It should be because Xi''er felt really lonely before, and she was very happy to meet someone to talk to her after such an extremely long time alone.
Tang Li Xue also felt very guilty and ashamed for always suspecting Xi''er before.
There was really no way since she had to always keep her guard up.
This world of immortal cultivators was always ruthless and full of deceit after all. If she even made just one mistake, not only would she lose her life, but she would also drag Little Loki and Yaya down with her!
After Tang Li Xue discussed it carefully with Little Loki and Yaya in a few minutes or so, they finally decided to go to the egg incubation room first.
Even though Tang Li Xue really wanted to head into the herb and elixir room first to obtain the treasures with star energy there, but soaking in the extremely high-grade spiritual spring pool at the egg incubation room could greatly increase their strength in a short time.
If they could be a lot stronger, it would definitely increase their safety when they explore other cester, so it should be the wisest choice for them right now.
Tang Li Xue temporarily bid farewell to Xi''er as she took the stairs on the left that headed to the egg incubation room. Just like Xi''er had told them, Tang Li Xue did not see any zombified creatures wandering around in the long corridor after climbing the stairs like in the Medicine Garden Pce since Xi''er had already cleaned them up.
There were many bedrooms along the long corridor. Other than exquisite furniture and porcin, there was nothing precious stored inside those bedrooms.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to check the rooms on her way one by one as she only needed to follow Little Loki''s treasure-
sensing ability to lead them to find the egg incubation room.
Little Loki and even the strange monstrous creature were unable to sense the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]''s existence before because the Medicine Garden Pce was isted and covered with many kinds of battered andplicatedyers of formations.
But this underwater pce was only covered with protective formations, so Little Loki could still use its sharp sense of smell to faintly probe the location of the extremely high-grade spiritual spring pool.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue''s group to reach the gate to the egg incubation room.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her mood, but before she could push open the gate to enter the egg incubation room, Tang Li Xue sensed her perfect copy was actually in danger because her perfect copy had already been surrounded by the army or mermen outside the underwater pce.
The main reason for that was because the crimson carapace mermen were much more troublesome than she had expected.
Not only did they have a strong defense and powerful strength, but they could alsobine water and ice spells to restrain the perfect copy''s speed.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only use her [Twin Moons] divine ability to un-summon her perfect copy before her perfect copy wastefully used her [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protections, then re-summon her back again to her side.
"What the heck are you doing?! You cannot evenst for half an hour against those crab soldiers?! How embarassing~!" Tang Li Xue yfully mocked her perfect copy.
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied in a displeasure tone: "It is really easy for you to say that! Why don''t you just try to get out and fight against all of those stinky fishes and crabs there alone?!"
Tang Li Xue instantly shut her mouth. She really almost forgot about those mermen''s unbearable fishy rotten stench which made herself and her perfect copy suffer mental trauma before.
The perfect copy added again in a mocking tone: "Now you finally realize my sacrifice, right? You should be grateful that I was willing to be a bait to attract the attention of those stinky creatures!"
Tang Li Xue patted her perfect copy''s shoulder. Even Little Loki and Yaya were staring at her with a pair of eyes filled with admiration.
"Yes, you are really great~! You are fighting against them for so long, and their stench does not even linger on your body. We are very amazed by you! Now, you can just rest outside here. We can explore this egg incubation room without your help." Tang Li Xue praised andforted her perfect copy.
The perfect copy''s pink lips twitched slightly in annoyance.
She clearly bravely sacrificed herself as a bait for them, but these heartless people... or, beasts to be exact, were afraid that she would smell like those stinky mermen instead.
After joking around for a while, Tang Li Xue pushed open the gate and brought Little Loki and Yaya into the egg incubation room.
But she really did not bring her perfect copy with her and let her perfect copy just took a rest in the corridor because if she met with any trap or danger inside the egg incubation roomter, she could still run away with [Swap] skill to exchange her location with her perfect copy at any time.
Chapter 843 843: Sudden Attack!
Chapter843 843: Sudden Attack!
Different from the hall and corridor which were illuminated by fluorescence substances on the ground, wall, and ceiling, The interior of the egg incubation room was extremely dark without any light.
However, it was not a problem for Tang Li Xue and Little Loki since they could still see clearly in the dark with their [Night Vision] ability.
When Tang Li Xue stepped into the egg incubation room, the pungent smell of rotten eggs instantly assaulted her sharp nose.
Tang Li Xue quickly closed her nose and mouth with her palm in reflex, then held her breath to stop smelling the stench of the rotten eggs.
Fortunately, it was still bearablepared to the foul rotten fishy stench from those mermen which could make even Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy extremely dizzy and stagger weakly.
There were so many transparent tubes of different sizes containing a strange liquid lined neatly in the egg incubation room.
The various-sized eggs from the eggs as big as a thumb to the eggs as big as a table were incubated inside those transparent tubes with a strange liquid.
There were also so many egg storage racks put on the huge shelves lined up neatly on the left and right sides of the egg incubation room.
There might be more than tens of thousands of various-sized eggs stored in this spacious egg incubation room.
Tang Li Xue secretly imagined how many omelets could be made from these eggs.
Sadly, most of these eggs werepletely devoid of any vitality and energy. Even the greedy Little Loki did not have any appetite to eat these dead rotten eggs.
Tang Li Xue vigntly explored the dark egg incubation room with Little Loki and Yaya still sat on her shoulders.
She immediately noticed that there were quite a lot of shattered transparent tubes and rotten egg crusts scattered on the floor in the deeper area of the egg incubation room.
Tang Li Xue immediately had a very bad feeling when she saw that mess.
She hastily took out the [Sword of Disaster] from her space pouch while warning Little Loki and Yaya in a solemn tone: "Little Loki, Yaya, be careful! I think..."
But before Tang Li Xue could finish her words, dense-packed crimson eyes suddenly shone in the darkness right above Tang Li Xue and her group!
Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] suddenly warned her of the sudden iing danger from above!
Tang Li Xue''s scalp went numb as she reflexively executed her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to quickly retreat from where she stood up right now, but she was still a half-step toote since the creatures already pounced at her from above!
Fortunately, Yaya, who sat idly on Tang Li Xue''s shoulder all this time, could predict it a few seconds ahead of time and act fast enough!
[Hurricane Barrier]~!
BWOOOOOSSSH~!
Yaya immediately unleashed her [Hurricane Barrier] to block the sudden sneaky attack from the creatures in the dark!
Right before those creatures could touch Tang Li Xue, they were already blown away by Yaya''s [Hurricane Barrier]!
Tang Li Xue also finally managed to see the appearance of the creatures who tried to attack her.
They were actually zombified baby creatures!
There were several different kinds of zombified baby creatures, ranging from the types that Tang Li Xue had already seen before such as low-level mermen, purple mermen, female green mermen, and crimson carapace mermen to the types that Tang Li Xue had never seen before such as snake-like mermen, frog-like mermen, turtle-like mermen, and so on.
Their sizes also vary from each other. The smallest was only as big as Tang Li Xue''s fist, while the biggest could reach Tang Li Xue''s waist.
Tang Li Xue had to admit that some of them looked very cute in their baby form, but their crimson eyes and sharp fangs made Tang Li Xue lose her will to touch or caress them.
"Nice save, Yaya~!" Tang Li Xue praised Yaya as she swiftly thrust the ck [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp toward those zombified baby creatures!
[Heavenly Sword Techniques], Flooding Stabs!
Tang Li Xue''s rapid thrusts split and turned into countless images of swords that assaulted those zombified baby creatures like a tsunami of swords in that instant!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue''s tsunami of ck swords cleared more than fifty zombified baby creatures by tearing them apart to blood mist in the blink of an eye!
"Eh? These baby zombies are so weak?" Tang Li Xue muttered in surprise.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not mean that she could ignore their attack and crush them like ants.
She only meant that these zombified baby creatures were much weakerpared to the matured mermen army that guarded and patrolled outside the underwater pce.
Just when Tang Li Xue thought so...
More than a hundred zombified baby creatures had already crawled swiftly toward her!
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
Moreover, many rotten eggs around her cracked as if the zombified baby creatures that were slept inside them were awakened by Tang Li Xue''s presence!
"All right, I take my words back... Yaya help me clean them up! Little Loki, use your [Phantom Splitter] clones to find the spiritual spring pool as soon as possible!" Tang Li Xue urged Little Loki and Yaya in a solemn tone.
Little Loki and Yaya nodded obediently at Tang Li Xue.
Little Loki jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s right shoulder as its tiny ck figure split into ten identical figures.
Then Little Loki along with its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones split up and quickly look for the spiritual spring pool!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue and Yaya were fighting together against the other wave of zombified baby creatures!
[Moonlight sh]~!
[Compressed Wind des] x15~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue and Yaya cooperated perfectly with each other as they easily decimated dozens of zombified baby creatures in less than one breath!
But no matter how fast and how many the two of them killed those zombified baby creatures, there would be many more seemed toe at them!
If Tang Li Xue and Yaya kept fighting at this high intensity for a long time, they would surely be exhausted sooner orter.
That was the reason why Tang Li Xue told Little Loki to find the spiritual spring pool as soon as possible.
Luckily, their luck was not that bad, and it did not take that long for Little Loki to find the spiritual spring pool!
This egg incubation room might be very spacious with many transparent tubes and egg shelves that obstructed their vision.
However, the spiritual spring pool could actually be easily found since it was located in the middle of the egg incubation room.
"Mew nyeo~! Meooow Nyaaw! (I found it~! Follow me!)" One of Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitter] clones meowed to Tang Li Xue and Yaya.
Tang Li Xue noticed that there was something strange from Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitter] clone''s weak sound.
She became very worried about Little Loki''s condition since she thought Little Loki was injured, so she hastily turned around and brought Yaya to follow Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitter] clone.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya ran away deeper into the egg incubation room, but the hundreds of zombified baby creatures did not give up and still persistently kept chasing after them!
When Tang Li Xue and Yaya reached the center of the egg incubation room, Tang Li Xue was instantly stunned by what she had seen right in front of her!
Her mind felt as if it was struck by lightning as she saw thepletely empty pool!
"No way, right? How could the spiritual spring pool be empty?! Little Loki, you did not drink it all, right?!" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki in an anxious tone. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Little Loki rolled its eyes disdainfully at Tang Li Xue.
''How could you use me like that?! Am I really that kind of cat?'' Little Loki angrily sent its thoughts to Tang Li Xue and Yaya.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya still suspiciously stared at Little Loki while nodding their heads.
''Err, well, okay... Maybe sometimes, I am like that... But I really dare to swear that I did not drink them this time~!'' Little Loki anxiously tried to exin to Tang Li Xue and Yaya.
Tang Li Xue could only sigh in regret and replied while patting Little Loki''s head gently: "It is okay. Maybe the spiritual spring pool has already dried up after such a long time. Let''s just forget it and quickly get out of here before we getpletely surrounded by those baby zombies!"
Just when Tang Li Xue turned around from the dried spiritual spring pool and prepared to lead Little Loki and Yaya out of this egg incubation room...
Little Loki sent them another piece of news with its thought: ''Oh, right... There is an egg emitting quite scary aura down there. Should we just leave it just like that? Or should we destroy it first before the creature inside it breaks out of it?''
"Eh, egg? What egg?" Tang Li Xue asked curiously while looking at the dried spiritual spring pool.
Chapter 844 844: Terrifying Egg!
Chapter844 844: Terrifying Egg!
It took Tang Li Xue to look around the dried spiritual spring pool for a few moments to find the egg Little Loki meant.
The egg was only at fist size, and it waspletely pitch-ck.
No wonder it was hard for Tang Li Xue to find it in this dark and gloomy environment even with her [Night Vision] and [Extrasensory Perception].
Tang Li Xue led Little Loki and Yaya as they jumped into the dried spiritual spring pool and approached the pitch-ck egg.
When Tang Li Xue was quite far from the pitch-ck egg, she did not notice anything strange about it just like an unnoticeable round ck pebble, but when she got close to it, she could feel the fearsome palpitating aura emitted by that pitch-ck egg.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply with a solemn expression as she did not even dare to rashly touch the pitch-ck egg.
After pondering carefully for a while, Tang Li Xue decided to check the pitch-ck egg first with her basic [All Knowing Eyes] before making further decisions.

[The Egg of Golden Winged Falcon (Contaminated and corrupted)]
[Maturity level before hatching: 97.8%, or wait for another 420 years before hatching naturally. Providing it with enough nutrition would significantly speed up the hatching time.]
[Description: The egg of the true spirit beast, Golden Winged Falcon. It died after being contaminated by the powerful undead aura.
However, its luck was extremely good. It did not turn into a living baby corpse like the other eggs but transformed and rebornpletely as an undead creature.
Furthermore, the ancient mythical bloodline hidden in its body waspletely stimted and awakened because of it.
Under the continuous nourishment of the extremely high-grade spiritual spring pool in the egg incubation room for tens of thousands of years, the degree of purity of the awakened ancient mythical bloodline had reached an astonishing level.
Current awakened ancient mythical bloodline, Golden-Winged Great Peng: 11.6%.
Trying to destroy this egg at this point would only speed up the time of its hatching and make it born prematurely.
Even if it hatched prematurely, it would definitely have the strength of a top-rank true spirit beast!
Rather than doing such a thankless and troublesome thing, it would be much better if you try to tame it with top-level taming treasure for undead, or you can also try to extract its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline and give it to another bird-type beast.]
---------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue grasped in shock and disbelief, then she read the pitch-ck egg''s description again and again to make sure she did not see it wrong!
"Holy cow~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in panic as she turned around reflexively, she wanted to run away as quickly and far away as possible from that terrifying egg so badly!
Tang Li Xue immediately noticed that hundreds of zombified baby creatures alreadypletely surrounded the dried spiritual spring pool from all directions.
Normally, they should have already attacked Tang Li Xue and her group fiercely together from all directions, but they had not done it yet until now as if they were afraid of something.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized that even all of the zombified baby creatures were afraid of getting close to this pitch-ck egg.
It might be because of the terrifying palpitating aura emitted by the pitch-ck egg, or its extremely powerful undead aura which had an unbearable suppressing effect on all living corpses.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her mood before she reluctantly turned around to stare at the pitch-ck egg again.
"No wonder even Little Loki said that it emitted a quite scary aura. Quite a scary aura is clearly an understatement, okay?! This egg is far beyond scary level!" Tang Li Xue murmured in a solemn tone mixed with a scared tone.
Tang Li Xue had yed many video games and read many novels in her previous life, so she knew a lot of ancient mythical beasts from them, but only a very few ancient mythical beasts that could make her respect them.
This [Golden-Winged Great Peng] was undoubtedly one of them!
In the ''Journey to the West'' story she had read before, even her Uncle Sun was beaten helplessly by this [Golden-Winged Great Peng]!
If not for Tathagata Buddha who came in time to subdue this [Golden-Winged Great Peng], it was still questionable if her Uncle Sun could still survive to continue his journey to the West and be ''Victorious Fighting Buddha'' in the end.
This Golden Winged Falcon''s egg might still be far from beingparable to the real [Golden-Winged Great Peng] in the ''Journey to the West'' story, but 11.6% of [Golden-Winged Great Peng] bloodline purity was clearly extremely high!
If it evolved a few more times, there was almost no doubt that it could be the real pure-blooded [Golden-Winged Great Peng] in the future!
For such an egg with unlimited potential, Tang Li Xue really wanted to adopt and raise it so badly, but unfortunately, this egg had already died after the undead aura contaminated it.
Even though it was reborn and transformedpletely into an undead creature, Tang Li Xue still did not have the guts to raise it as her closepanion pet like Yaya and Little Loki.
To make it worse, the description said that forcibly trying to destroy this egg would only hasten its hatching time and make it born prematurely instead.
Even though it was born prematurely, it would still instantly have the strength equal to a top-rank spirit beast!
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead to ease her headache while trying to ask her System: "System, how powerful a top-rank spirit beast is?"
[The three spirit beast-level foxes in the Host''s previous team have the strength of low-rank spirit beasts. The oldest one is at the peak of a low-rank spirit beast, only a step away from reaching the mid-rank spirit beast.]
Tang Li Xue almost got choked by her own saliva when she read her System''s reply.
Even the chief of the exploration team, Zhu Jun, was only at the peak of a low-rank spirit beast!
"Cough, cough, cough... How many ranks are there?" Tang Li Xue asked again in a skeptical tone.
[There are four ranks in total: low-rank, mid-rank, high-rank, top-rank. But for the beasts who have just evolved to the true spirit beast level, they are usually called newborn spirit beasts which are below low rank since they still cannot wield their strength properly.]
Tang Li Xue staggered back in shock and disbelief.
"Are you kidding me?! This mere rotten egg will reach top-rank true spirit beast level as soon as it is born?! Even the pure-blooded Taotie cub like Little Loki is not as terrifying as it, right?!" Tang Li Xue still asked with a tone filled with disbelief.
[It has been nurtured in the extremely high-grade spiritual spring pool for tens of thousands of years after all. If pure-blooded Taotie cub was nurtured in this environment for tens of thousands of years, it should have already be a monstrous beast capable of devouring this entire Immortal World.]
"Oh, right~! Little Loki is here! Little Loki, can you just eat this egg with your [Heaven''s Devour]?! It should have been easy for you to do it, right?!" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki as her topaz blue eyes were glittering like a pair of stars in excitement.
But out of Tang Li Xue''s expectations, Little Loki was not excited, and it showed a reluctant expression instead.
Its reluctant reaction made Tang Li Xue feel really strange because Little Loki would usually greedily eat everything, especially something with an extremely high amount of energy like this egg, Little Loki would usually pounce at it excitedly and eat it without any hesitation.
[System suggests Host to refrain Host''spanion pet from doing it rashly.]
"Why?" Tang Li Xue asked unconvincedly.
[That egg contains a tremendous amount of energy after being nurtured in the extremely high-grade spiritual spring pool over tens of thousands of years.]
[Host''spanion pet is only a newborn Taotie cub. Its pure Taotie Bloodline has not awakened yet.]
[Even though it might not die after it devoured that egg, it would definitely fall asleep for at least a few thousand years to digest it.]
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly after she read her System''s exnation.
When Little Loki stepped closer to the pitch-ck egg, Tang Li Xue hastily stopped it in panic and said: "All right, stop it, Little Loki! You do not need to devour it. We will think of another way to deal with this egg."
Little Loki sighed in relief as it stepped back from the pitch-ck egg.
Tang Li Xue wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.
Sleeping for a few thousand years might be nothing for a Taotie cub like Little Loki, but it was definitely an extremely long time for Tang Li Xue.
She might have already be an immortal fox deity after Little Loki awakens if that really happened.
Tang Li Xue read thest part of the egg''s description once again: "Try to tame it with top-level taming treasure for undead, huh?"
Then her dimmed topaz blue eyes were shining in excitement again as she muttered andughed happily: Hey, wait a minute... I can just use my [Sword of Disaster] to nurture and tame this egg slowly~! Muahahaha~! It seems the luck is truly on my side~!"
Just as Tang Li Xue took out her pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] and wanted to use it to poke at the egg to store it inside the [Sword of Disaster]''s space, she immediately halted her movement. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"I can also try to extract its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline and give it to another bird-type beast?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
Tang Li Xue immediately recalled her previous promise to her white Wind-Riding Bird.
Yes, she had promised her white Wind-Riding Bird that she would never abandon it, and she would definitely find something to help it evolve into a higher-grade beastter at that time.
Wasn''t this the perfect opportunity for that?!
Tang Li Xue instantly fell into a dilemma.
She hesitated whether she had to tame this egg using her [Sword of Disaster] or extract its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline and then give it to her Wind-Riding Bird.
Chapter 845 845: This is Your Only Chance!
Chapter845845: This is Your Only Chance!
Whether taming the egg using her [Sword of Disaster] or extracting its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline and giving it to her Wind-Riding Bird, each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages.
If Tang Li Xue chose to tame the egg using her [Sword of Disaster], she might be able to quickly get an extremely powerful thug, but the disadvantage was also huge.
First, she would not be able to let out this extremely powerful thug in front of others carelessly, or the others would definitely suspect her of having a close rtionship with the Undead Race.
Second, if the Undead Race identally saw the extremely powerful thug in her control someday, there would be a high chance that they could guess that the [Sword of Disaster] in her possession was actually their long-missing [Key of Undead''s Glory]!
At that time, she would have to face relentless pursuit of the entire Undead Race!
If Tang Li Xue chose to give the Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline to her Wind-Riding Bird, it would surely take a long time for her Wind-Riding Bird to merge with the Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline, so the Wind-Riding Bird would not be able to help her for a very long time.
Not to mention that the process would be extremely painful and dangerous, Tang Li Xue might have to use a lot of treasures to help the Wind-Riding Birdplete the process.
Little Loki, Yaya, and the Phoenix of Pride were already a group of big eaters, If she added another Wind-Riding Bird with Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline... Tang Li Xue did not even dare to imagine how her poor wallet could feed all of them.
Tang Li Xue still did not dare to make any decision rashly since her current choice would surely affect her future.
She bit her pink lips in frustration and asked her System: "System, the egg''s description said that it needs 420 years before hatching naturally. What would happen if I tried to hatch it prematurely after I tame it with my [Sword of Disaster]?"
[The egg needs 420 years to hatch naturally because itpletelycks the necessary nutrition, so it can only slowly umte it by absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.]
[If the Host stored it inside the [Key of Undead''s Glory]''s space, and it would get nurtured continuously by the abundant Death Energy, then that egg would only need 8 years to hatch naturally.]
[At that time, the purity of its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline would be saturated at 15%, then its strength and potential would be greatly improved.]
[Of course, Host can also choose to prematurely hatch it to quickly obtain a powerful bodyguard, but the purity of its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline would only stay at the current 11.6%.]
"15% Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline purity?!" Tang Li Xue eximed as she took a deep breath in astonishment.
Don''t think that 15% was too little, but in fact, it was already about one-seventh of 100% purity, and it was still just a newly hatched chick.
Tang Li Xue''s thought silently tilted toward taming the egg more and more...
[But System still strongly suggests Host to transfer the Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline to another bird-type beast.]
"Why?" Tang Li Xue skeptically asked while frowning deeply in disagreement.
[Has Hostpletely forgotten that this egg already died and transformed into an undead creature?]
[It means it would no longer be able to evolve like the normal beast. It can only cultivate like other undead creatures by devouring the essence of other living creatures. In short, its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline purity would always stay at that level unable to progress further anymore.]
Tang Li Xue instantly felt dizzy as if her head was struck heavily by lightning when she read her System''s exnation.
"Damn, you are right~! How the heck could I forget about that?!" Tang Li Xue said in frustration while pping her forehead.
Then Tang Li Xue shook her head helplessly while muttering in a hesitant tone: "But I really doubt that I can extract the Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline from that egg with my current skills. Not to mention, there is still a high chance that my Wind-Riding Bird would not be able to merge with the Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline with its current strength, then it would explode and die instead in the end."
[That is undoubtedly 100% true. With Host''s current mastery of [Essense Devouring Technique] and [Energy Maniption], it would bepletely impossible for Host to do it by herself. Host would only ruin the egg and force it to hatch prematurely instead.]
[Furthermore, Host''s Wind-Riding Bird is far too weak. Even if it does not explode and die, how long do you think it would take topletely digest and merge with tens of thousands of years'' worth of ancient mythical bloodline umtion?]
[But Host does not need to worry~! This most dependable System can help the Host solve all of these problems perfectly in one click!]
[Host only needs to pay 5,000 Deity Coins, and the System will automatically extract the Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline from that egg and transfer it to Host''s Wind-Riding Bird! Guaranteed 100% safe and fast without leaving any seque!]
Tang Li Xue waspletely dumbfounded and even her pink lips twitched violently after she read her System''s sudden sales-like offer. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
"No wonder you are so kind and talkative today... So, this is your true purpose from the very start! You heartless System, you actually want to suck my wallet dry~!" Tang Li Xue used her System angrily.
[Host, please stop falsely using this innocent System. The system would only offer the best option for the Host.]
[5000 Deity Coins to get the future Golden-Winged Great Peng are not expensive at all!]
[Host, please imagine if your Wind-Riding Bird can truly evolve into Golden-Winged Great Peng in the future, as a stunningly beautiful fox deity, you ride Golden-Winged Great Peng as your mount while traveling around the world.]
[All immortals, demons, gods, deities, and even your Uncle Sun would surely envy you to death, right?]
[What are you waiting for?! This is your only chance to have the same pet as Tathagata Buddha!]
Tang Li Xue''s saliva almost dripped when she imagined it ording to her System''s words, but she quickly wiped it with her sleeve.
She had to admit that her System''s offer was fatally attractive to her.
"PAY~! You are right, this is my only chance to get it!" Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth and shouted in a very excited tone.
[Great~! Now, Host only needs to touch that egg and your Wind-Riding Bird, then leave it all to System!]
Tang Li Xue crouched down and carefully took the pitch-ck egg with her right hand.
Then Tang Li Xue took out her Wind-Riding Bird from her mid-rank space pouch.
"KWEEH~! KWEEH~! KWEEH~!" The white Wind-Riding Bird chirped while snuggling at Tang Li Xue''s chest.
Tang Li Xue gently caressed her white Wind-Riding Bird''s head and exined the matter of bloodline transfer to it: "Okay, listen to me..."
Despite Tang Li Xue already mentioned the risk of exploding and dying, the white Wind-Riding Bird was still extremely excited after it heard about the chance to evolve into Golden-Winged Great Peng.
Tang Li Xue could only sigh helplessly when she saw the extremely excited Wind-Riding Bird.
At first, Tang Li Xue only wanted to hear about the Wind-Riding Bird''s own choice, so she decided to ask it first.
If the Wind-Riding Bird was afraid and refused to ept the bloodline transfer, then Tang Li Xue would choose to tame this egg instead.
But she clearly far underestimated the fatal attraction of evolving into a mythical beast.
Even if the chance of sess was only less than 1%, any beasts who did not have any chance to evolve further like Wind-Riding Bird would definitely choose to take it without any hesitation.
Just like many human cultivators, they would also kill each other and even dare to face extremely dangerous heavenly tribtions in order to improve their cultivation and be immortals.
*Ding~!
[Do you want to transfer the [Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline] from the [Egg of Golden Winged Falcon] to [Wind-Riding Bird] at the cost of 5,000 Deity Coins? Yes/No]
"5000 Deity Coins... It is so much... System, can you please give me a discount this time? Just 20%... No, 30% discount is enough, okay~?!" Tang Li Xue tried to bargain with her System in a pleading tone.
But this time, her System no longer reacted as if it could not hear Tang Li Xue''s words anymore.
"What a damn heartless stingy system~!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth andined in an angry tone.
Tang Li Xue only managed to save around six thousand Deity Coins so far, so it was not strange that she felt great heartache when she suddenly had to spend 5000 Deity Coins at once right now.
After hesitating for a few moments, Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and finally chose ''Yes''.
WEEEEEEENG~!
The blinding golden light shrouded the pitch-ck egg and the white Wind Riding Bird!
The entire dark egg incubation room was illuminated by the bright golden light in that instant!
The terrifying palpitating aura emitted by the pitch-ck egg quickly faded away as the process of bloodline transfer began!
The surrounding zombified baby creatures were no longer afraid to jump into the dried spiritual pool and charge at Tang Li Xue''s group!
[Bloodline transferring process has begun. Please Host never take your hands off the egg and Wind Riding Bird, or the transferring process will fail and Host will lose both the egg and Wind Riding Bird forever!]
[Bloodline transferpletion progress rate is at: 1%... 2%... 3%...]
"Oh, sh*t~! Damn you System, why didn''t you tell me about this before?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in rage as she saw the hundreds of zombified baby creatures charging toward her swiftly!
Chapter 846 846: Questions About Ancient Mythical Bloodline!
Chapter846 846: Questions About Ancient Mythical Bloodline!
Fortunately for Tang Li Xue, Little Loki and Yaya, who were ying around with each other just now, quickly made their moves to protect Tang Li Xue right before those hundreds of zombified baby creatures could reach her!
[Hurricane Barrier]~!
BWOOOOOSSSH~!
Yaya released her [Hurricane Barrier] to block the hundreds of zombified baby creatures before they could attack Tang Li Xue.
Right before those zombified baby creatures could touch Tang Li Xue, they were already blown away by Yaya''s [Hurricane Barrier]!
At this time, Little Loki used its [Phantom Splitter] ability, and its tiny ck body split into ten identical figures.
Little Loki along with its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones activated [Instant Teleportation] at the same time and instantly appeared in all directions around Tang Li Xue to fight against the iing hundreds of zombified baby creatures!
[Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]~!
All ferocious-looking zombified baby creatures around Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones were immediately locked by [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation]!
All of their senses and movements were sealed and could no longer move even one bit!
[sh and sh]~!
[Scythe w Qi]~!
Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones swiftly moved swiftly around the battlefield and went on a killing spree on those zombified baby creatures!
Each of them mercilessly cut dozens of zombified baby creatures into tiny pieces every second!
Yaya puffed her cheek and pouted cutely.
She did not want to be outdone by Little Loki, so she also quickly unleashed her offensive skills to y the zombified baby creatures around her!
[Compressed Wind des] x15~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Yaya''s fifteen sharp wind des cut more than fifty zombified baby creatures in one breath, but she still felt that it was far from enough since Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones could kill more than that every second.
[Compressed Wind Swords] x12~!
Yaya created a dozenpressed wind swords with her wind power in only a few breaths of time!
A dozenpressed wind swords were flying and dancing around swiftly across the battlefield, harvesting so many heads of those zombified baby creatures!
Yaya and Little Loki continue topete against each other to determine who will kill the most zombified baby creatures!
Despite Yaya and Little Loki eliminating so many zombified baby creatures every second, the number of the zombified baby creatures seemed not to decrease at all.
On the contrary, themotion of their battle actually kept attracting more and more zombified baby creatures toe at them!
Tang Li Xue could hear a continuous cracking sound created by the zombified baby creatures that just awakened by the noise of their battle and hatched from their rotten egg.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she saw Little Loki and Yaya could still hold those zombified baby creatures back, but she also knew that this situation would notst long since Little Loki and Yaya would definitely exhausted sooner orter if they continued to fight against so many zombified baby creatures with this intensity.
Even though Tang Li Xue felt really anxious, but there was nothing she could do right now.
She did not even dare to move her body around carelessly because if she identally moved her hands even a few millimeters away from her Wind Riding Bird or the pitch-ck egg, the bloodline transferring process would instantly fail, and she would lose both her Wind Riding Bird and the pitch-ck egg forever.
Oh, right... It would also mean that she would lose her 5,000 Deity Coins for nothing.
Tang Li Xue already had a strong urge tomit suicide with a block of tofu just by imagining it in her mind.
Tang Li Xue secretly nced at the progress rate of bloodline transfer on her System''s window.
[Bloodline transferpletion progress rate is at: 13%... 14%... 15%...]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief again while muttering: ''Oh, 15% progress in just a few minutes? Fortunately, this speed is not that bad. It should have been able to finish before Little Loki and Yaya arepletely exhausted."
Tang Li Xue, who was a bit bored, decided to try to ask for more information from her System: "System, you should already know that I have Imperial Moon Fox bloodline and Pure Sun Dragon bloodline, right? How did theypare to the ancient mythical bloodline like the Golden Winged Great Peng?"
Her System seemed to be in a good mood right now after Tang Li Xue followed its suggestion and spent 5,000 Deity Coins to transfer the Golden Winged Great Peng from the pitch-ck egg to her Wind-Riding Bird, so it kindly answered Tang Li Xue''s question this time.
[How can Hostpare your two meager bloodlines with the ancient mythical bloodline such as Golden Winged Great Peng?]
[The rank of your Imperial Moon Fox bloodline is not as high as you imagined, while the purity of your Pure Sun Dragon bloodline has not even reached 0.001%. In short, neither of them is worth mentioning yet in front of the ancient mythical bloodline.]
[But Host does not need to be sad or worry too much about it. Host is currently only an Umon-Grade beast after all.]
[Once Host evolved into Rare Grade beasts such as [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox], both of Host''s bloodlines would be improved further.]
[After Host evolved again into an Epic-Grade beast with this System''s help, Host''s bloodlines would definitely surpass this Golden Winged Falcon''s egg.]
Tang Li Xue blushed in shame when she read her System''s first two sentences, and she was also extremely disappointed.
She thought both her Imperial Moon Fox bloodline and Pure Sun Dragon bloodline were so powerful all this time, but she was actually only like a frog at the bottom of the well.
It might be true that her two bloodlines could be considered quite powerful among the Beast Race, but they were still far from beingparable to the ancient mythical bloodline such as Golden Winged Great Peng. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Actually, Tang Li Xue''s Pure Sun Dragon bloodline was definitely one of the most powerful ancient mythical bloodlines.
Because any true dragon could already be said to be one of the most powerful ancient mythical beasts, not to mention that this Pure Sun Dragon bloodline came from [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]!
From the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]''s description, it was said that the Sun Dragon King was the strongest of the four Dragon Kings before it self-destructed itself at God''s Battlefield.
Tang Li Xue did not believe that the bloodline of the strongest dragon king was inferior to Golden Winged Great Peng!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s current [Umon]-Grade beast body could only contain a minuscule amount of Pure Sun Dragon bloodline, thus it was still far from beingparable with the egg''s more than 11% Golden Winged Great Peng bloodline.
Tang Li Xue quickly recovered after she read the rest of her System''s words.
"Hahaha~! You are right... I am really too foolish. I am only an [Umon]-grade beast right now. So, how could Ipare myself with an [Epic]-grade beast cub?!" Tang Li Xue chuckled andughed at herself.
"I still need to evolve two more times to reach [Epic]-grade, and at that time, I am sure that I will be much stronger than Golden Winged Falcon with Golden Winged Great Peng bloodline~!" Tang Li Xue confidently said to herself.
However, Tang Li Xue suddenly thought of an extremely brilliant idea in her mind!
Tang Li Xue asked her System again as her topaz blue eyes were shining like a pair of blue stars in excitement: "System, if I can find other creatures with ancient mythical bloodlines next time, can you just transfer it to me?"
Because her System could transfer the Golden Winged Great Peng bloodline from the pitch-ck egg to the Wind Riding Bird, it should not be a problem for her System to transfer the ancient mythical fox bloodline from the other foxes to her in the future, right?!
How powerful she would be if she had so many ancient mythical fox bloodlines in her body?!
Just imagining it almost made Tang Li Xue jump around in excitement, and she almost identally took away her hands from the Wind Riding Bird''s body!
[Host, please stop daydreaming! That is definitely an impossible thing to do.]
"Why?!" Tang Li Xue shouted in an unconvinced tone.
[There are many reasons, but this System will only exin the most crucial one to Host.]
[First, everyone''s body is like a vessel, so it has a certain limit. Once the vessel is full, it will not be able to be filled anymore. Host''s body is also the same. Having so many ancient mythical bloodlines in one body is an impossible thing to happen.]
[Second, having so many ancient mythical bloodlines in one body might sound great, but it is actually a very stupid thing to do. Rather than having four ancient mythical bloodlines but each of them was only at 25% purity, it would be countless times better to just have one ancient mythical bloodline but 100% purity.]
[Because every ancient mythical bloodline has its own characteristics and arrogance, there is a high chance that they would sh with each other. At that time, the owner would definitely explode and die violently.]
[Third, System can only do this right now because the current situation is really special.]
[As Host can see from its description, this Golden Winged Falcon''s egg is already contaminated with the powerful undead aura and died but it miraculously transformed into aplete undead creature and identally awakened its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline instead.]
[To make it easier to understand, it was just like a shattered vase, it had countless cracks but it miraculously did not break apart, and even the content inside the vase was not spilled. Because of that reason, this System had the opportunity to exploit its ws to transfer the content inside the vase with countless cracks to anotherplete vessel.]
[Furthermore, it is still only an unhatched egg!]
[If the vessel is still aplete vessel without any ws, and it is not an unhatched egg, then this System would definitely not be able to do it!]
Tang Li Xue instantly deted and became extremely disappointed after she heard her System''s exnation.
Chapter 847 847: Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird!
Chapter847847: Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird!
However, Tang Li Xue did not think too much about it since she also knew what it meant to be ''bit off more than she could chew''.
She was only an [Umon]-Grade beast right now, so having many kinds of ancient mythical fox bloodlines in her body was clearly unrealistic.
Then Tang Li Xue immediately realized something horrible from her System''s previous exnation.
She hastily asked again in an anxious tone: "System, you said that having more than one bloodline will have a high chance of shing against each other, and the owner would definitely explode and die violently. Then what about me?! Would I also explode and die violentlyter?!"
[Host does not need to worry about that. Host would not explode and die violently because Host''s two bloodlines actuallyplement each other perfectly in harmony.]
[The Pure Sun Dragon bloodline is unbearably hot and very tyrannical because all dragons should have extremely strong and tough physiques.]
[With Host''s current physique, possessing Pure Sun Dragon bloodline should be a great torture for Host instead because all foxes usually have fragile bodiespared to the other beast races.]
[Host should be tortured by scorching heat, and Host''s blood would burn Host''s body from inside like moltenva flowing inside your body and veins. It would even affect your mind, and Host would be short-tempered and reckless.]
[Fortunately, the Imperial Moon Fox bloodline is chilling cold and has a great mind-calming effect. Host''s me of Pride also greatly improved Host''s resistance to heat. Both of them managed topletely neutralize the bad side-effects of the Pure Sun Dragon bloodline.]
[As a result, Host only enjoys the advantages of both the Imperial Moon Fox bloodline and the Pure Sun Dragon bloodline without any disadvantages.]
"Oh~?! That is so good~! As I expect from myself~! It is all ording to my n since the very start when I chose to evolve into the Imperial Sun and Moon Fox~!"Tang Li Xue proudly praised herself while smiling and nodding her head in satisfaction.
"System, does it mean I can have more than two bloodlines as long as theyplement each other perfectly?" Tang Li Xue asked her System in a curious tone.
Unfortunately, her System no longer answered Tang Li Xue''s question anymore.
It seemed her System already nned to only answer three questions for her since the beginning as her reward for spending 5,000 Deity Coins at once.
The pissed-off Tang Li Xue really wanted to kick her money grubber System''s *ss so badly right now, but unfortunately, she clearly could not do it.
Tang Li Xue peeked at the progress rate of bloodline transfer on her System''s window again.
[Bloodline transferpletion progress rate is at: 73%... 74%... 75%...]
The bloodline transfer process had almostpleted without Tang Li Xue realizing it.
But Little Loki and Yaya''s current situation was not that good anymore.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had predicted, both Little Loki and Yaya got more and more exhausted as they kept fighting against so many zombified baby creatures with high intensity while not letting any of them get close to Tang Li Xue at all.
Meanwhile, the number of zombified baby creatures was increasing instead of decreasing, and they kept charging fearlessly toward Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki like an endless zombie tide!
"Little Loki, Yaya, please hold on for a little bit longer! It is only around 20% progress rate left!" Tang Li Xue said to Little Loki and Yaya.
Yaya was getting more and more irritable when she saw the zombified baby creatures unceasinglye at them.
She really wanted to unleash her [Cyclone Storm] to clean up all of these disgusting zombie babies at once, but she did not dare to do it since no one could tell if this egg incubation room was sturdy enough to withstand her [Cyclone Storm].
It would be really bad if this entire egg incubation room copsed because of her [Cyclone Storm].
Without any other choice, Yaya could only keep shooting her [Compressed Wind des] and [High-Pressure Air Bullets] at the approaching zombified baby creatures!
She also kept controlling a dozen of [Compressed Wind Swords] to continuously y so many zombified baby creatures!
The prideful Little Loki also did not want to lose to Yaya, so it and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones increased their speed of massacring those zombified baby creatures!
Its [Earth Locking Heaven ying Formation] kept locking the senses and movements of the surrounding zombified baby creatures.
Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones kept shuttling around freely in the sea of zombified baby creatures!
[sh and sh]~!
[Scythe w Qi]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Every time Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones passed, all of the zombified baby creatures near them would be cut into pieces!
Both Little Loki and Yaya kept fighting withoutining, but Tang Li Xue could see the sweat on Yaya''s forehead was already flowing profusely, and Little Loki''s breath was already ragged.
Tang Li Xue felt really sorry for both of them as she gnashed her pearl-white teeth impatiently.
[Bloodline transferpletion progress rate is at: 93%... 94%... 95%...]
"Come on, can you please be quicker~?! It is only 5 percent left!" Tang Li Xue urged in an irritated tone. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitters] clones became increasingly transparent with every passing second, and they might fade away soon!
Yaya could no longer control her dozen [Compressed Wind Swords], and they scattered back to the air! She even flew unsteadily as if she could fall down at any time!
[Bloodline transferpletion progress rate is at: 100%]
Right at this time, the bloodline transfer process finally reached 100%!
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
The unprepared Tang Li Xue was suddenly thrown off dozens of meters from her Wind Riding Bird!
"CHIRP~! CHIRP~! CHIRP~!"
The Wind Riding Bird was chirping loudly as its entire body was shrouded in the blinding light!
The terrifying tyrannical aura was unleashed wantonly from the Wind Riding Bird''s body!
The powerful shockwave blew away everyone near the Wind Riding Bird!
Not even Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki could get close to the Wind Riding Bird at this moment!
Tang Li Xue secretly felt really worried about the Wind Riding Bird right now.
She had paid so much for the Wind Riding Bird''s bloodline transfer, so if something untoward happened at it, she might really die from depression and regret.
Fortunately, the abnormal phenomenon onlysted for a few minutes before it slowly receded.
When the blinding golden light disappeared, Tang Li Xue hastily approached her Wind Riding Bird and checked it in worry.
Nothing much changed from Wind Riding Bird.
Its form and size were still the same as before.
Its feathers were still pure white in color, but the edge of its feathers had turned dazzling gold.
Tang Li Xue tried to use her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to check her Wind Riding Bird, but she immediately realizes something extremely crucial.
Tang Li Xue quickly opened her status window on her System.
[Companion Pet: Yaya (Lv21), Loki (Lv Undefined), Unnamed (Lv20)]
Tang Li Xue finally sighed in relief after she saw that her Wind Riding Bird was already included as one of her Companion Pets.
But her System quickly exined to Tang Li Xue.
[Actually, Host can only have two Companion Pets at Host''s current grade, and Host can only have three Companion Pets after evolving to [Rare] Grade Beast.]
[But this System makes an exception to help Host this time and add this bird as Host''s third Companion Pet earlier.]
"Thank you, System~! I really want to kiss you so badly right now~!" Tang Li Xue excitedly said to her System.
Then Tang Li Xue impatiently opened her Wind Riding Bird''s status window to see its current stats and skills.

-------------------------------------------
"Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird? Not bad... Quite a cool name, but why its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline is in the sealed state?" Tang Li Xue skeptically asked her System.
13:53
[The Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird needs to familiarize itself with its new power first, and it is only a [Rare] Grade beast right now.]
[Its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline will be unsealed once it evolves into an [Epic] Grade beast. Then the bloodline purity will slowly rise from 0.1% until it reaches 15% along with time.]
[Only by progressing step by step like this, the Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird will merge perfectly with its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline without leaving any ws or seque.]
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in understanding, but she was still a bit disappointed.
She thought Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird would at least have the strength equal to a low-rank true spirit beast, but it seems the current Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird was only a [Rare] Grade beast, so the strength was more or less on the same level as herself, Yaya, and Little Loki.
Of course, Tang Li Xue also understood that the Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird needed to proceed and hone itself slowly step by step like this, so its future potential would not be affected and still be unlimited.
Obtaining a great power so suddenly in one step might look good at the start, but it would only severely limit its future potential instead, and it would not go far on its road to bing a god.
Even the strongest Dragon King, Sun Dragon King, and Uncle Sun also needed to undergo so many trials and tribtions in order to reach the top.
Chapter 848 848: Meet With Xier Again!
Chapter848 848: Meet With Xi''er Again!
Tang Li Xue was awoken from her afterthought when the Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird intimately snuggled its head onto Tang Li Xue''s chest.
Tang Li Xueughed happily while caressing the Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird''s head gently: "All right, I know you are very happy and grateful to me, but you still have to work hard in the future, okay?!"
"No matter how high your potential is, it would only be wasted in the end if you do not work hard to always improve yourself, do you understand?" Tang Li Xue warned Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird in a stern tone.
The Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird obediently nodded its head at Tang Li Xue to show that it hadpletely understood.
Tang Li Xue could also see from the Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird''s glittering golden eyes which shone with excitement and filled with a strong obsession that it was truly determined to get stronger to repay Tang Li Xue back.
But before Yaya and Little Loki could greet their newrade-in-arm, the army of zombified baby creatures were already impatiently rushing toward them once again from all directions like a tidal wave!
The expressions of Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki became very solemn at that moment.
"We have no more business here. Let''s break through their encirclement and get out of this egg incubation room as quickly as possible!" Tang Li Xue said their next objective to Little Loki, Yaya, and Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird.
Who knew that the Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird suddenly pulled the back of Tang Li Xue''s cor with its sharp beak and threw Tang Li Xue onto its back?!
Then it grabbed the exhausted Little Loki and Yaya with its talons while pping its wings!
SWOOOOSSHH~!
The Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird turned into a golden sh of light!
Since the Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird still did not know the location of the egg incubation room''s exit, it even flew around the egg incubation room once before it zoomed toward the egg incubation room''s entrance gate and flew out of the room.
Despite that, it all happened in a moment!
"What the heck are you..." Before Tang Li Xue could even finish her words, she quickly realized that she was already right outside the egg incubation room''s gate in the blink of an eye!
Tang Li Xue gasped in shock while eximing in a surprised tone: "So... So fast~!"
Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird carefully put down Little Loki and Yaya in its grasp on the ground, then showed a proud expression.
Tang Li Xue understood that the Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird was asking to be praised, so she patted its head gently while chuckling in satisfaction: "Great job~! As I expected from someone with the Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline, you really have unparalleled speed!"
Tang Li Xue jumped down from the Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird''s back and hastily pulled the egg incubation room''s gate to close it, so the zombified baby creatures inside would not be able to get out.
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
The zombified baby creatures began to bang the metal gate from inside the egg incubation room, but they clearly could not even shake the metal gate at all since it was made specially from treasured metal material and engraved with strong protection formation.
Tang Li Xue finally sighed in relief when she saw those zombified baby creatures could not get out of the egg incubation room.
Little Loki and Yaya jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s shoulders and sat there to take some rest while staring curiously at the Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird together.
Tang Li Xue patted Little Loki and Yaya''s tiny heads while introducing them to Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird: "I know you probably already know each other, but let''s just introduce you all formally again."
"This little green fairy is your eldest sister, Yaya. The ck kitten will be your second... err... By the way, Little Loki, I have already wanted to ask this for a very long time, are you a male or female?" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki in an extremely curious tone.
Little Loki rolled its eyes disdainfully at Tang Li Xue. Itzily licked its paws andpletely ignored her.
Little Loki could not really answer Tang Li Xue''s question because Taotie could be said to be genderless at the beginning when it was still a cub.
However, Taotie could choose to be male or female when they reached their mature state.
Tang Li Xue still did not know about it, but she did not bother to force Little Loki to tell them about it.
"All right, let''s just forget it... You can just call it, Little Loki."
Then Tang Li Xue introduced Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird to Little Loki and Yaya: "Little Loki, Yaya, this is our newpanion, Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird. You can call it... err, that is right... I still have not given you a proper name yet..."
"Xiao Jin (Little Gold), Xiao Feng (Little Wind), Xiao Peng (Little Peng)? Meh, not good enough... They are too in..." Tang Li Xue muttered while frowning deeply.
Tang Li Xue recalled that the Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird was a female bird, so Tang Li Xue wanted to give her an elegant and beautiful name.
"Lucia... Oho~! This one sounds very good~! Okay then, your name will be Lucia from now on, and I will call you Little Lucia!" Tang Li Xue happily said while gently rubbing Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird''s head.
Even though Lucia''s size was not ''little'' anymore since she was already more than two meters tall, and she was already much taller than Tang Li Xue who was only around 160 cm tall, but Lucia''s mind was still rtively simple and childish, so Tang Li Xue still decided to call it ''little''.
Little Lucia looked really happy when Tang Li Xue formally gave her a name.
She did not really understand the meaning of her name, but it meant a lot to her because it meant shepletely integrated into Tang Li Xue''s family from now on.
Tang Li Xueughed at Little Lucia''s happy expression and exined clearly to her:"Lucia means ''Light''. It also signifies my wish for you to be the light of hope that will always illuminate our ways in the future."
Little Lucia''s golden eyes shone in excitement after she heard Tang Li Xue''s exnation, and she felt really touched by the meaning of her own name.
Tang Li Xue felt a little bit guilty and ashamed when she saw the gullible Little Lucia.
Actually, Tang Li Xue remembered her favorite female character with white hair in her previous life, so she just gave her name to Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird.
Anyway, Lucia''s name was really elegant, beautiful, and cool, not to mention that Little Lucia has white feathers.
White hair and white feathers... Well, they are not really that far off, right?
Tang Li Xue led Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia back to the vast hall again.
On the way, Tang Li Xue stared at the pitch-ck egg of the Golden Winged Falcon in her grasp while frowning deeply.
The pitch-ck egg no longer emitted any aura. It was just like a dead egg right now.
Just when Tang Li Xue was puzzled about what she had to do with this pitch-ck egg, her System kindly gave Tang Li Xue a suggestion.
[After the Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline extracted from that egg, it became iplete and lost most of its vitality energy.]
[It would require enormous resources to make up for it. Even if Host stored it in [Key of Undead''s Glory], it would take thousands of years of Death Energy''s continuous nourishment for it to hatch. It is simply not worth it at all to do.] n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
[Despite that, the undead power, aura, and energy contained in this egg are still quite abundant. This System suggests Host use that egg as the nourishment for the previous cracked sword that Host obtained before.]
[Not only the undead creature merged with that cracked sword would recover much faster with that, but it would also get stronger and have much higher growth potential.]
"Oh, really~?!" Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining in excitement after she heard System''s reasonable suggestion.
Tang Li Xue took out her [Sword of Disaster] and tried to store the pitch-ck egg into the space inside the [Sword of Disaster].
The pitch-ck egg entered the space inside the [Sword of Disaster] so easily without any resistance.
Then Tang Li Xue carefully controlled it, so the pitch-ck egg would be ced very close to the Heaven Edge Sword which was still filled with countless cracks.
Just like ording to her System''s suggestion, the Heaven Edge Sword began to greedily suck the undead power, aura, and energy contained in the pitch-ck egg!
If Tang Li Xue had not extracted the Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline from the pitch-ck egg, what happened right now would have been reversed, and it would have been the pitch-ck egg that sucked the Heaven Edge Sword''s undead power, energy, and aura instead.
But because the pitch-ck egg was damaged until it became iplete and lost all of its vitality energy, the Heaven Edge Sword could devour the pitch-ck egg''s power without any problem.
The color of the pitch-ck egg slowly faded away and became dull and gray like a fossilized egg.
It might not take long for it topletely lose its worth, but Tang Li Xue stopped paying attention to it and threw her [Sword of Disaster] back into her space pouch.
The Sea Goddess Statue, Xi''er, happily greeted them when she saw them: "How about it? It is reallyfortable soaking in the spiritual spring pool, right?"
But Xi''er immediately realized that something was not right, so she asked Tang Li Xue and her group curiously: "Eh? That is really strange. Why doesn''t your aura get stronger after soaking in the spiritual spring pool? Don''t tell me that you have not found the spiritual spring pool?!"
Tang Li Xue shook her head with a disappointed expression and told Xi''er what had happened in the egg incubation room.
Chapter 849 849: Lucias Amazing Divine Abilities!
Chapter849 849: Lucia''s Amazing Divine Abilities!
Xi''er became really embarrassed after she heard Tang Li Xue''s story.
"I am really sorry. I never expected that the spiritual spring pool had long been dry." Xi''er sincerely apologized to Tang Li Xue in an ashamed tone.
Tang Li Xue chuckled in amusement while replying: "Why are you the one apologizing? This is not your fault at all. The spiritual spring pool dried because that damn ck egg absorbed everyst drop of it."
"But honestly, I do not feel any regret since the ck egg can awaken its [Golden Winged Great Peng bloodline] because of that. Thanks to it, our Little Lucia can get such a great opportunity to reach the sky in one step." Tang Li Xue said while patting Lucia''s head gently.
Xi''er also smiled in relief when she saw Tang Li Xue and Lucia was genuinely happy and really did not me her for it.
Both Little Loki and Yaya were already very exhausted after experiencing continuous fierce battles against so many zombified baby creatures, so Tang Li Xue did not immediately lead them to explore the other ces and let them rest instead.
Little Loki and Yaya quickly fell fast asleep on Tang Li Xue''s thighs while cuddling sweetly with each otherfortably.
Xi''er who was lonely all this time still wanted to talk a lot more with Tang Li Xue and her group, but she did not want to disturb Little Loki and Yaya''s sleep, so she could only remain silent for now.
Tang Li Xue leisurely sat on the floor while leaning on Lucia''s soft body which slept right behind her.
Don''t look at that Lucia did not fight at all against those zombified baby creatures before, but she was actually very tired physically and mentally since the previous ancient mythical beast bloodline merging process was extremely painful.
Lucia felt every second pass extremely slowly as if she had been tortured for years at that time, but she subconsciously knew that the bloodline transfer process would fail if she moved her body away from Tang Li Xue''s hand, so she did not dare to move even one bit before.
Fortunately, everything went well, and she made it through sessfully.
Different from Lucia, Little Loki, and Yaya, Tang Li Xue barely did anything in the egg incubation room since the bloodline transfer was all done automatically by her System, so she did not feel tired at all.
She decided to open Lucia''s status window in her System instead to check the details of her divine abilities and skills.
[Golden Light Spell]: Divine ability that allows the user to manipte the golden spiritual energy to form anything ording to the user''s will. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue while muttering: "This [Golden Light Spell] divine ability seems to have almost the same effect as my [Energy Maniption]."
Of course, Tang Li Xue''s [Energy Maniption] has much higher flexibility and potential since it can manipte all kinds of energies in the user''s body such as spiritual energy, vitality energy, mental energy, and so on, while Lucia''s [Golden Light Spell] can only manipte her golden spiritual energy.
However, it did not mean Lucia''s [Golden Light Spell] was inferior to Tang Li Xue''s [Energy Maniption].
Golden spiritual energy was actually an advanced type of metal-elemental spiritual energy, so everything Lucia created with [Golden Light Spell] would be much tougher to break than what Tang Li Xue created with her [Energy Maniption].
Tang Li Xue shifted her attention to Lucia''s next divine ability.
[sh Speed]: Increased Agility stat effect by ten times. Improved the affinity to the time elemental and space elemental by three times. Active Effect: (Slow Motion: The user will feel the flow of time around him/her slow down tenfold. Buff duration: 5 minutes, Cooldown: 1 hour.)
Tang Li Xue grasped in shock when she read the effect of this [sh Speed].
Increased Agility stat effect by ten times might be a lot, but Tang Li Xue could also achieve the same effect by activating her [Wings of Freedom] buff.
[(Super Speed): Grant three times effect from Strength and Toughness stats, five times from Agility stat. Active effect: (Wings of Freedom: Increase the effect of Agility stat by five more times and grant Fast Flight buff for 15 minutes duration. Cooldown: 1 hour)]
In short, Tang Li Xue''s [Super Speed] divine ability still won in terms of overall stats improvement since it also improved the effect of her Strength and Toughness stats.
But the improvement of the affinity to the time elemental and space elemental by three times was the real advantage of this [sh Speed]!
That was undoubtedly the most precious effect that Tang Li Xue had ever seen so far!
Any skills, abilities, or profoundws with time elemental and space elemental were the hardest to obtain or learn.
Increasing the affinity to the time elemental and space elemental by three times meant Lucia could obtain or learn the skills, abilities, or profoundws with the time elemental and space elemental three times faster and easier than the others!
"What a great divine ability~! Sigh... Unfortunately, my [Mirror of the Moon] cannot copy any passive divine abilities." Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment.
However, Tang Li Xue became excited again when she read the effect of Lucia''s [Slow Motion] buff skill!
(Slow Motion: The user will feel the flow of time around him/her slow down tenfold. Buff duration: 5 minutes, Cooldown: 1 hour.)
It also meant one second for the others would actually be ten seconds for Lucia!
Tang Li Xue really wanted to copy this [Slow Motion] so badly!
Even the effect of improving Agility by ten times was far from beingparable to the effect of this [Slow Motion]!
Why?
For example, Tang Li Xue could move around extremely fast with [Wings of Freedom] buff, but when she tried to predict the opponent''s next movements or dodge their attacks, her movements would definitely be slowed down.
It could not be helped since not only Tang Li Xue, but anyone else would also need to slow down their speed when they turned or changed direction, especially so when they needed to do it in order to dodge the opponent''s attacks.
But this [Slow Motion] did not have that problem, because after using it, it would be everything around her moving ten times slower! Of course, only the user of this skill would feel so, the other creatures would not feel anything at all.
"Holy cow~! This [Slow Motion] is definitely a skill with the power of time elemental, right?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock mixed with excitement.
Tang Li Xue was more and more looking forward to seeing Lucia''s next divine ability.
[Gigantification]: The user can adjust his/her body size on a tenfold scale. Shrinking your body can increase your speed but decrease your toughness while erging your body can increase your toughness but decrease your speed.
This [Gigantification] divine ability was another extremely useful divine ability in Tang Li Xue''s opinion.
It meant Lucia could freely change her body size with [Gigantification]!
Lucia''s current body size was around two meters tall, so she could shrink to 20 cm tall or erge to around 20 meters tall with her [Gigantification] divine ability!
This [Gigantification] was definitely the most ideal divine ability for any mount!
Tang Li Xue nodded her head with a delightful smile on her stunningly beautiful face in satisfaction while muttering: "With this [Gigantification], we all can sleep on Lucia''s back when we travel around from now on. There is even enough space for Instructor Lan, Silly Fox, and Bingbing~!"
[Herculean Strength]: Grant eight times effect from Strength stat, five times from Toughness stat.
Lucia''s fourth divine ability was nothing special. It was just another stats improvement type divine ability.
However, the improvement effect was quite significant which made Tang Li Xue quite greedy for it.
---------------------------------
[Golden Vajra Body]:
*Increase overall defense by 150%.
*Reduce any damage received by 25%.
*Reflect back any melee damage you received to your opponent. The amount depends on your Toughness Stat.
*Grant high-speed regeneration.
*Immunity to any poison and curse.
*Nullified any damage you receive equal to or under 10% of your Toughness stat.
*Active effect: Golden Vajra Shield (Create a golden shield that can reduce the damage you received by 50% and absorb damage equal to ten times the amount of your Toughness stat.Duration: 30 Seconds. Cooldown: 30 minutes.)
---------------------------------
Tang Li Xue gasped in shock again when she read the effects of Lucia''s [Golden Vajra Body].
Surprisingly, the overall effects were almost as good as her [Sun And Moon Aegis]!
Unfortunately, it did not have three times deadly blow protections, and Sun And Moon Protection which could make her invulnerable for 2 seconds like Tang Li Xue''s [Sun And Moon Aegis].
But its active effect, [Golden Vajra Shield], was already extremely good!
Lucia''s current Toughness stat was 2,500. With [Herculean Strength] that improved the effect of her Toughness stat by five times, it meant her Toughness stat was equal to 12,500.
[Golden Vajra Body] could absorb damage equal to ten times the total amount of Lucia''s Toughness stat which was around 125,000 points!
Not to mention she would have a double damage reduction effect after activating her [Golden Vajra Shield] (25% and 50%)!
(For anyone who has not understood it yet, damage reduction could not work as a stack like 50%+50%=100%. The correct way to count it was if the damage was 100, reduce it by 50% first to 50, then reduce it by 50% again to 25. In short, it would never reach 100% damage reduction!)
Tang Li Xue was truly amazed by Lucia''s overall strength.
In terms of strength and toughness, Lucia was not that far from herself.
In terms of speed, Lucia was not losing at allpared to Yaya.
But Tang Li Xue still thought that Lucia was more suitable for the Tanky Warrior''s position in her team.
In any case, Yaya was a ''Mage'', while Little Loki was an ''Assassin'' in her team.
Her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent] will hold the support position and be the ''Priest''.
"What a perfect arrangement~! As I expected from myself~!" Tang Li Xue nodded her head in satisfaction.
As for Tang Li Xue herself? Well, she was undoubtedly the leader of the team since she was the all-rounder type and could fill any position if needed.
Then Tang Li Xue suddenly remembered the most useless member of their team, Phoenix of Pride, and gnashed her pearl-white teeth in annoyance.
"Humph~! Just forget about that useless dumb bird! It can only eat and sleep all day! So damn useless!" Tang Li Xue snorted in anger.
Tang Li Xue suddenly became sleepy after her excitement and anger calmed down, and she fell asleep without realizing it while leaningfortably on Lucia''s warm body.
Chapter 850 850: Heading Into the Armory!
Chapter850 850: Heading Into the Armory!
On the next day, Yaya was the one who woke up earliest as usual, then she woke up Tang Li Xue and the others.
Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Lucia stretched their bodies while yawningzily at the same time.
"Good morning, everyone~! Did you all sleep well?" Xi''er happily greeted Tang Li Xue and her team.
"Hoaahm~! Morning... Xi''er..." Tang Li Xue replied to Xi''er while rubbing her sleepy eyes.
Xi''er kept chattering happily and even greeted Tang Li Xue''s team one by one.
Tang Li Xue felt even more sorry for Xi''er as she could clearly feel how lonely Xi''er was from how she behaved.
Xi''her had been living alone inside this underwater pce for tens of thousands of years or maybe even longer than that.
However, Tang Li Xue and her group surely could not stay in this underwater pce for long just to apany Xi''er. They would definitely leave this underwater pce sooner orter, and by that time, Xi''er would be left alone again in this underwater pce.
Tang Li Xue sighed sadly while thinking: ''Is there really no way to bring Xi''er back with us?''
Even though Tang Li Xue felt pity for Xi''er and was reluctant to leave Xi''er alone here, but her life still had to go on. She clearly could not waste her time, especially since her first priority task to evolve into a [Rare] Grade Beast was only one step away from being fulfilled.
After feeding Little Loki with dozens of beast cores, Yaya with delicious snacks, and Lucia with several Spirit Dew Cucumbers, Tang Li Xue reluctantly bid farewell to Xi''er again and led her team to the armory on the right side of the underwater pce.
Little Loki and Yaya sat on Tang Li Xue''s shoulders while Lucia followed right beside Tang Li Xue as they climbed the stairs on the right side of the underwater pce.
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly when she saw dozens of Merman soldiers'' stone statues lined up neatly on the left and right sides of the long corridor.
After seeing so many moving statues, Tang Li Xue felt that she had started to have a phobia every time she saw any stone statue and thought that they would move and attack her.
"Everyone, be careful of these stone statues... Don''t let your guard down!" Tang Li Xue warned Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia in a solemn tone.
Little Loki and Yaya nodded at Tang Li Xue with a serious expression, while Lucia voluntarily walked right in front of Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue admiringly gave two thumbs-up to Lucia in her heart and praised her: ''What a dependable bird~! She is really theplete opposite of the dumb bird...''
Tang Li Xue and Lucia vigntly walked through the long corridor while keeping their eyes on the Merman soldiers'' stone statues on the left and right sides.
Fortunately, nothing strange happened until Tang Li Xue and her group reached the metal door at the end of the long corridor.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief as she tried to push open the metal door.
But surprisingly, she met a strong resistance after pushing the metal door open a bit as if something blocked the door from the inside.
Lucia quickly realized Tang Li Xue''s difficulty and also helped to push open the metal door with her head.
Tang Li Xue also gritted her pearl-white teeth as she mobilized all of her strength to push the metal door with Lucia.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
However, Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception] quickly sensed the sudden iing danger from behind the metal door that they just opened!
"Watch out, Lucia~!" Tang Li Xue shouted to warn Lucia while she swiftly moved aside from the opened metal door!
BOOOOOOOM~!
Dozens of basketball-sized heavy metal ores were thrown out from inside the armory, and they struck the wall and floor in the corridor until they left several deep craters!
All materials used to create this underwater pce were extremely tough. Even Tang Li Xue was not sure if she could leave deep craters like these if she tried to attack the wall and floor with her fist or kick.
Luckily, both Tang Li Xue and Lucia were quick enough to move aside to dodge the sudden attacks, or they would surely be injured and stuck inside those deep craters.
"ROOOAAAARRR~!" n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Tang Li Xue and her group heard an ear-deafening roar from inside the armory.
It seemed they identally awoke a quite powerful creature that sleeping inside the armory when they forcefully pushed open the metal door just now.
Tang Li Xue sneakily peeked into the opened metal door and saw a grumpy and ferocious-looking zombie creature behind the metal door.
It was also a mermen zombie creature with a more than ten-meter tall muscr green body and carrying a huge bone hammer.
In Tang Li Xue''s eyes, this mermen zombie creature was a bit like a mutant ninja turtle in the movie she watched in her previous life. However, it looked more grotesque and disgusting with some parts of its body decaying.
Tang Li Xue could easily tell at just one nce that this mermen zombie creature was really not easy to deal with.
"Damn it~! We have not even stepped into the armory yet, but we have already bumped into such a troublesome zombie creature." Tang Li Xue grumbled in annoyance.
The only good news right now was that the green muscr zombie merman could not get out of the armory since the metal door was only around two meters tall.
Its more than ten-meter tall muscr green body definitely could not get out through the metal door even if it tried to crawl out from it.
"All right, now what? Should we just give up and head directly to the herb and elixir room?" Tang Li Xue hesitantly muttered as she tried to ask for the opinion of her team.
The obedient Yaya did not bother to think as she would always follow Tang Li Xue''s opinion, while Little Loki clearly did not want to give up any snacks it could find just like that.
It even already had thought to sneak in alone with its [Instant Teleportation] if Tang Li Xue decided to give up on exploring this armory.
But right at this time...
"Kweehh~! Kweehh~! ( Leave that big guy to me~!)" Lucia bravely said to Tang Li Xue.
"What?! Are you really sure that you can handle it, Little Lucia? That big guy did not look weak at all!" Tang Li Xue skeptically asked Lucia.
"Chirp~! Chirp~! Kweeeakk~! (Leave it to me~! I am sure I can handle it!)" Lucia confidently replied while patting her wing onto her chest.
After hesitating for a while, Tang Li Xue decided to put her trust in Lucia since she also wanted to see how strong Lucia had be.
"Okay then, I will be counting on you, Little Lucia. Don''t worry about anything and just go all outter! We will also help you to fight that big guyter!" Tang Li Xue instructed Lucia in an encouraging tone.
Lucia solemnly nodded at Tang Li Xue before she passed through the metal door and charged bravely into the armory alone!
[Gigantification]~!
Lucia''s two-meter-tall body covered with white and gold feathers instantly swelled and became more than the twenty-meter tall body!
Lucia''s body actually became twice bigger than the muscr green zombie merman!
Before the muscr green zombie merman could react, Lucia headbutted it heavily with breakneck speed!
BOOOOOOOMM~!
The muscr green zombie merman was caught unprepared, and it was thrown off more than fifty meters, then crashed onto dozens of weapons racks!
Lucia did not want to give the muscr green zombie merman any chance to breathe as sheunched another attack swiftly!
[Golden Light Spell]~!
Lucia''s body was shrouded in a transparent golden barrier when she rushed toward the muscr green zombie merman!
[de Feather sh]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~!
Lucia shed her wings at the muscr green zombie merman leaving a deep cross wound on its chest!
"ROOOOOOAAAAAAAARR~!"
The muscr green zombie merman roared in great rage as it swung its heavy bone hammer at Lucia''s head!
But Lucia agilely jumped back and easily dodged the muscr green zombie merman''s hammer attack!
Then she even had time to catch the muscr green zombie merman''s arm that swung the heavy bone hammer!
[Tearing w]~!
PUUUFFF~!
Lucia forcefully tore the muscr green zombie merman''s arm that was holding the heavy bone hammer!
Everything happened so fast in only a few breaths, so when Tang Li Xue stepped into the armory with Yaya and Little Loki, the fight was already almost over.
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaws in shock and disbelief when she saw the scene right in front of her eyes.
At this moment, Lucia was swiftly spinning her body gracefully in mid-air while using her [de Feather sh] to behead the muscr green zombie merman!
Then Lucia caught the muscr green zombie merman''s flying head with her beak and excitedly brought it to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly in puzzlement.
She did not even know anymore whether the muscr green zombie merman was too useless and weak or whether Lucia was too strong.
But after thinking for a while, Tang Li Xue immediately determined that it should be Lucia who had be too strong.
Not only she could use [Gigantification] to get bigger and stronger, she even have [sh Speed], [Golden Light Spell], [Herculean Strength], and [Golden Vajra Body].
Even though Lucia''s divine abilities were not as many as Tang Li Xue''s, but they could connect perfectly with each other to bring out her strength further.
As a result, thebination effect of her divine abilities became like one plus one was greater than two, or maybe even greater than ten!

Lucia canceled her [Gigantification], and her body shrunk again from 20 meters tall back to 2 meters tall.
Lucia happily gave the head of the muscr green zombie merman she grabbed with her beak to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue''s expression froze, but she still helplessly received the head from Lucia while praising her: "Good job, Little Lucia~! You have really be so strong right now!"
Then she quickly threw away the disgusting head of the muscr green zombie merman and caressed Lucia''s head gently. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lucia closed her eyesfortably while Little Loki and Yaya pouted their lips and red at Lucia in jealousy.
A sense of crisis rose in their heart as they thought Lucia might take all of Tang Li Xue''s attention and push them away instead.
In their imagination, Tang Li Xue cuddled intimately with Lucia andpletely forgot about them, then Lucia sneered coldly and mocked them silently.
No way~!
Both Little Loki and Yaya shouted in their heart! Their hearts were burning in rage as they gnashed their teeth just by thinking about it!
Little Loki and Yaya nced at each other quietly, but they seemed to reach some kind of agreement, and even their eyes were burning with a fiercepetitive spirit!
Tang Li Xue still did not know what was in Little Loki and Yaya''s minds.
After praising and caressing Lucia for a while, Tang Li Xue brought Lucia, Yaya, and Little Loki to explore the armory together.
The armory was alsopletely dark like the egg incubation room, but it was not a problem for Tang Li Xue since she could still see everything clearly with her [Night Vision] skill.
So many weapons lined up neatly more than a hundred weapon racks.
There were many different kinds of weapons, but most of them were spears and halberds. It could easily be seen from this that the favorite weapons of the Merman race were actually spears and halberds.
Tang Li Xue tried to check those weapons, and she ended up sighing in disappointment.
Almost all of these weapons were eaten by time and degraded to useless pieces of metal after tens of thousands of years.
The arrays carved on them had already faded away, and they became extremely brittle like fragile porcin.
Tang Li Xue shook her head in frustration.
She already thought about how many spirit stones she could get by selling these weapons if they were still as good as new weapons.
Unfortunately, her expectations were nowpletely dashed.
Despite that, Tang Li Xue did not want to give up just like that and still decided to look around while hoping to find some kind of hidden treasures like divine weapons, precious metal ores, and so on.
On the deeper side of the armory, there were hundreds of sets of armor, but they were designed for the Merman race, so their size was too big for Tang Li Xue or any Human Race.
The condition of these armor was the same as the previous weapons, and they had already be pieces of junk after tens of thousands of years.
When Tang Li Xue and her team ignored those armors and nned to head straight to the deepest part of the armory, they bumped into several muscr green zombie mermen this time!
Only one of them was still awake, and it polished its halberd repeatedly. It seemed that was its obsession when it was still alive.
"ROOAAARRR~!" The muscr green zombie mermen stopped polishing its halberd and roared angrily at Tang Li Xue and her group when it noticed them!
Its ear-deafening angry roar immediately awakened the other muscr green zombie mermen!
"Damn it~! I already knew there would be more of them!" Tang Li Xue groaned in annoyance.
But before Tang Li Xue and Lucia could do anything, Little Loki and Yaya already rushed forward to face those muscr green zombie mermen first!
[Phantom Splitter]~!
Little Loki''s tiny ck furry figure was split into ten identical figures in that instant!
[Multiple Wind Clones]~!
Yaya also used its clone skill, and her tiny green figure was split into a dozen identical figures!
But those muscr green zombie mermen were not afraid at all since they only regarded Little Loki and Yaya as tiny bugs who dared to sneak into their room.
Those muscr green zombie mermen swung the weapons in their grasp such as bone hammers and halberds at Little Loki, Yaya, and their clones!
BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~!
Several Little Lokis and Yayas were squashed to death by those muscr green zombie mermen, but all of them were only clones!
[Compressed Wind des] x15~!
[Compressed Wind Swords] x12~!
Yaya rapidly unleashed her skills mercilessly at those ten-meter-tall muscr green zombie mermen!
PUFF~! PUFF~!PUFF~!
She managed to injure those muscr green zombie mermen, but it was only skin-deep injuries, and they were not fatal at all.
Little Loki also did not want to lose and unleashed its skills at those muscr green zombie mermen along with its [Phantom Splitter] clones!
[sh and sh]~!
[Scythe w Qi]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~!PUFF~!
Just like Yaya, Little Loki and its [Phantom Splitter] clones could only leave superficial wounds on those muscr green zombie mermen.
It could not be helped since the thick muscles of those green zombie mermen acted like armor for them.
Even Lucia could not cut the previous muscr green zombie mermen to pieces after using [Gigantification] and [de Feather sh], then she could only choose to behead it instead to resolve it quickly.
Right at this time, Tang Li Xue and Lucia had also sprinted forward to help Little Loki and Yaya face those muscr green zombie mermen!
Lucia activated her [Gigantification], and her body immediately swelled from two meters tall to twenty meters tall!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue took out her pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] from her space pouch while using her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to get close to one of those muscr green zombie mermen!
Tang Li Xue added [Sharp Edge Power] buff onto her [Sword of Disaster] first before she unleashed her sword technique toward her target!
[Heavenly Sword Techniques], Flooding Stabs!
The pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] in Tang Li Xue''s grasp split into countless sword images as she performed rapid thrusts at one of those muscr green zombie mermen!
A tsunami made from the countless ck sword images threatened to drown that muscr green zombie merman and turn it into mince meat!
But that muscr green zombie merman was clearly not a fool. It definitely would not just stupidly stand there without fighting back at all!
The muscr green zombie merman roared angrily as it swung the heavy bone hammer in its grasp toward Tang Li Xue!
BOOOOOOMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s [Flooding Stabs] shed head-on violently against the muscr green zombie merman''s heavy bone hammer!
Tang Li Xue was thrown back dozens of meters, but she managed to leave a lot of deep stabbing wounds on the muscr green zombie merman''s body.
But Tang Li Xue''s hand holding the [Sword of Disaster] felt numb and kept trembling slightly because of the violent collision.
While Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Yaya were busily fighting one-on-one against the muscr green zombie merman, only Lucia was fighting against a few of them at once!
With her twenty meters tall body which was twice as big as those muscr green zombie mermen, Lucia did not lose at all in fighting head-on against them!
After using [Golden Light Spell], Lucia''s body was protected with a sturdy transparent golden barrier.
Not to mention she also had [Herculean Strength] and [Golden Vajra Body], which improved her strength, toughness, and defense further!
BANGG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Four muscr green zombie mermen kept attacking Lucia with their weapons relentlessly, but Lucia calmly dodged them with ease.
Lucia did not even activate her [Slow Motion] buff yet, and she only relied solely on her [sh Speed].
Lucia took some distance with them and suddenly swung both of her wings!
[de Feather Projectiles]~!
More than a hundred golden-edged white feathers flew towards those four muscr green zombie mermen!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
The four muscr green zombie mermen tried to block Lucia''s [de Feather Projectiles] with the weapons in their grasp, but they could only block a few of them.
Most of Lucia''s [de Feather Projectiles] managed to stab deeply into their arms, legs, and bodies!
If these four muscr green zombie mermen were still living creatures, they would have already been gravely injured.
Unfortunately, they had been turned into zombified creatures, so they could no longer feel any pain, and the only way to kill them was either cutting them to pieces or cutting their heads off.
The four muscr green zombie mermen had already lost their minds, and they were no longer afraid of death. They angrily charged toward Lucia again in unison!
Lucia tried to behead them swiftly with her [de Feather sh] several times, but they managed to block Lucia''s attacks again and again with their weapons.
Lucia became extremely annoyed at them, but there was really no way for her to quickly defeat them.
Fighting four of them at once was clearly a different difficulty from fighting one-on-one against them.
If Lucia let down her guard even for a moment, these four muscr green zombie mermen would definitely take that chance to beat her down and chop her up mercilessly.
Chapter 852 852: Three Treasures In The Armory!
Chapter852 852: Three Treasures In The Armory!
At first, Tang Li Xue was really worried that Lucia would be beaten to death by four muscr green zombie mermen, but she sighed in relief after she saw that Lucia could cope surprisingly well against them.
Tang Li Xue decided to stop wasting her time and became a little bit serious, so she could help Lucia face those four muscr green zombie mermen as soon as possible.
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
A brilliant golden light shone in the dark armory as a faint image of the sun formed behind Tang Li Xue!
The space around her was instantly lit in golden me mixed with a deep blue me of Pride!
The unbearable searing heat made the muscr green zombie merman halt its charge and take some steps back to keep its distance from Tang Li Xue.
Of course, Tang Li Xue would not let it off so easily as she rushed forward with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] while imbuing her [Sword of Disaster] with Profound Law of Heat, golden me, and a deep blue me of Pride!
[Paragon Sword Technique]... Perpetual sh!
The sharp sword Qi and sword intent burst out of the [Sword of Disaster] in Tang Li Xue''s grasp!
The extremely hot mes mixed with sharp sword energy plus [Sharp Edge Power] buff pushed the lethality of Tang Li Xue''s sword to a frightening level!
The muscr green zombie merman knew that it could no longer avoid Tang Li Xue''s attack, so it roared desperately while jumping and swinging down the heavy bone hammer violently with both of its hands!
Tang Li Xue already prepared for that, and she added one more sword technique¡
[Chivalrous Sword Art], Trading Blow!
It was the sword move to deal 200% damage to the enemy while receiving around 60% damage from the enemy!
But Tang Li Xue was not afraid of the side effects of this sword move since she had confidence in her rapid regenerative abilities from [High-Speed Regeneration] skill plus [Sun And Moon Aegis].
Tang Li Xue shed the [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp to meet with the muscr green zombie merman''s heavy bone hammer attack head-on!
BOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s slender body was thrown off more than fifty meters like a cannonball and crashed onto dozens of armor racks!
Tang Li Xue spun gracefully in mid-air and managed tond on her knee, but she was still pushed back and left deep trails on the ground.
The muscr green zombie merman roared while charging toward Tang Li Xue again, but it suddenly froze.
Its ten-meter-tall body slowly split in two, and got swallowed by the golden me mixed with deep blue me!
Tang Li Xue slowly stood up while wiping the blood on the corner of her pink lips with her thumb as she calmly watched her opponent burn into nothingness.
Then she hastily wanted to help Lucia, but she quickly pped her head while muttering: "Oh, right... How could I forget to summon out my perfect copy?! No wonder I always feel like something is missing!"
In the beginning, Tang Li Xue had already nned to use her perfect copy as bait to explore this armory first, but after her team got ambushed right after she opened the armory''s door and Lucia managed to defeat the first muscr green zombie merman easily, Tang Li Xuepletely forgot to summon out her perfect copy.
Right at this time, Tang Li Xue quickly used her [Twin Moons] divine ability to summon out her perfect copy!
Her perfect copy sneered mocking at Tang Li Xue and said: "Hehe, so you finally remember to summon me out? I thought you had already be strong enough that you did not need my help anymore."
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and did not bother to argue with her perfect copy. She replied to her perfect copy in an urging tone: "Stop ying around at a time like this! Let''s hurry and help Lucia now!"
"Okay~! Come on, let''s go before that bird turns to smashed fried chicken~!" The perfect copy yfully responded.
After Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy joined the battle against the four muscr green zombie mermen, the pressure faced by Lucia became much lighter.
Meanwhile, Yaya finally also managed to behead the muscr green zombie merman she faced using her strongest single target skill, [Vacuum sh].
Even Little Loki was forced to enter its [Battle Form] with its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones before it could defeat its foe with ease.
Yaya and Little Loki did not rxed yet. Both of them hastily rushed to help Lucia, Tang Li Xue, and her perfect copy.
The fight suddenly became five against four... No, it should be fourteen against four if all of Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitter] clones were counted too.
Their battle quickly tilted to one side as Tang Li Xue and her grouppletely surrounded the four muscr green zombie mermen and began to assault them from all sides mercilessly! n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lucia confronted the four of them head-on fearlessly while Little Lokiunched a swift sneak attack with thebination of [Instant Teleportation] and [Scythe w Qi]!
When Little Loki unleashed its skills simultaneously with its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones, even Tang Li Xue felt dizzy when she saw ten Little Lokis seemed to appear everywhere.
Meanwhile, Yaya kept bombarding those four muscr green zombie mermen with her [Compressed Wind des], [Compressed Wind Swords], and [Vacuum shes].
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy also did not want to lose as they unleashed their [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] simultaneously!
It only took a few breaths of time for those four muscr green zombie mermen to be ughtered and even their bodies were burned to ashes.
Little Loki canceled its [Phantom Splitter] and Battle Form, then its nine clones instantly disappeared, and its domineering two-meter tall figure reverted back to little kitten form.
Both Little Loki and Yaya jumped toward Tang Li Xue, then sat back on her shoulders to rest.
"All right, good job everyone~!" Tang Li Xue smiled gently as sheforted her team.
Lucia also canceled her [Gigantification] divine ability. After her twenty-meter-tall body shrunk back to two meters tall, she ran back to Tang Li Xue and snuggled her head at Tang Li Xue as if she was asked to be praised and caressed.
But when Tang Li Xue caressed Lucia''s head, Little Loki and Yaya felt jealous and whined to ask for the same treatment.
Tang Li Xueughed out loud in amusement as she caressed gently one by one.
"Then what about me? I also want to be..." The perfect copy muttered while smiling yfully.
Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia rolled their eyes disdainfully in unison and ignored her as they continued their way to check the deepest part of the armory.
"Hey, wait a minute~! Why are you looking at me like that?! Is it really wrong for me to ask to be praised and patted too?!" The perfect copy unhappilyined while pouting her pink lips.
Tang Li Xue saw several cksmith''s forging furnaces on the right side.
Tang Li Xue looked at them with interest, but it seemed there was nothing precious there, so she only shook her head in disappointment.
Who knew that Little Loki suddenly jumped down from Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and began to devour the small hill of metal ores near those forging furnaces?!
Tang Li Xue felt really curious as to why Little Loki was so excited about those metal ores, so she activated her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to check them.
--------------------------------------------
[Golden Sea Metal Ore]
[Description: Rare metal that contains abundant gold elemental energy mined from the deep ocean. Precious metal ore that can be used to forge spirit weapons and increase their sharpness significantly.]
--------------------------------------------
[Earth Essense Ore]
[Description: Precious metal ore contains rich earth elemental energy that can only be mined over 30,000 meters deep underground. It can be used to forge earth elemental spirit treasures.]
--------------------------------------------
.....
...
There were so many kinds of metal ores, but all of them were precious materials for forging treasures.
No wonder Little Loki looked so excited as it kept devouring them greedily like a locust right now.
Tang Li Xue did not know anything about forging or refining treasures, so she did not think much about these forging materials and just let Little Loki devour them all.
It did not take long for the greedy Little Loki to swallow the small hill of metal ore materials.
Tang Li Xue had to admit that it looked really hrious when a palm-sized tiny ck kitten actually swallowed a small hill of metal ore materials in front of their eyes.
Little Lokizily sat on the floor and licked its lips while narrowing its eyesfortably.
"Are you done, Little Loki? Let''s go then~!" Tang Li Xue asked as she picked up Little Loki.
Tang Li Xue led her team to explore the armory for another few minutes or so.
They failed to find anything, but luckily, they also did not bump into any traps, dangers, or enemies.
Until they finally reached the other corner of the deepest part of the armory...
Tang Li Xue saw three precious-looking items floating above the offering altar!
A football-sized silver pearl, a golden trident, and a pair of pitch-ck boots...
Each of them was shining with mysterious light and emitting a powerful aura!
Even any blind creature could sense how precious they were just from the aura they emitted!
The eyes of Tang Li Xue and her group were instantly brightened up when they saw those three treasures.
Chapter 853 853: Sudden Trap!
Chapter853 853: Sudden Trap!
Lucia and the perfect copy excitedly walked toward the offering altar, but Tang Li Xue hastily stopped them: "Wait a minute~!"
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s warning was still one step toote as both Lucia and the perfect copy were already too close to the offering altar.
WEEEEENG~!
The entire offering altar was suddenly shining with bright white light!
"Damn it~! I knew this would happen! There is no way they would not install any protection to safeguard their treasures from being stolen!" Tang Li Xue anxiously said while she quickly tried to pull Lucia and her perfect copy away from the offering altar.
BANG~!
However, she could not get close to them at all because she bumped hard into an invisible wall and took a few steps back instead!
Both Little Loki and Yaya almost fell down from Tang Li Xue''s shoulder, but they quickly held Tang Li Xue''s cor to stabilize themselves.
Tang Li Xue rubbed her reddened forehead while hissing in pain.
Before Lucia and the perfect copy could react or think about how to get out from there, three silhouettes rapidly condensed on the offering altar!
Those three silhouettes were actually three different kinds of mermen, but their bodies were transparent as if they were only illusions.
The three different kinds of mermen equipped themselves with the three treasures that were floating above the offering altar before.
The crab-like crimson carapace merman grabbed the football-sized silver pearl.
The football-sized silver pearl melted, and the silver liquid covered the crimson carapace merman''s entire body in an instant.
The crimson carapace merman suddenly wore a cool-looking silver armor that looked like an exoskeleton suit.
The burly purple merman was holding the golden trident. The golden trident let out a loud ringing sound as terrifying pressure spread out from it!
The mutant turtle... cough, I mean the muscr green merman wore a pair of pitch-ck boots, and its body seemed to blend with the surroundings, then itpletely disappeared from everyone''s vision.
Both the crimson carapace merman and the burly purple merman rushed very swiftly toward Lucia and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy!
Lucia hastily activated her [Gigantification], and her body instantly erged to twenty meters tall!
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Despite being more than three timesrger than the crimson carapace merman which was only around five meters tall, Lucia was still punched so hard by it that she was thrown off dozens of meters and crashed heavily onto the transparent wall!
It was clear that the silver armor that the crimson carapace merman was not only increased its defense but also increased its strength by many times!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was currently facing the burly purple merman!
The burly purple merman thrust its golden trident toward the perfect copy, but the perfect copy calmly used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge it.
Just as the perfect copy thought how to counterattack, the golden trident in the burly purple merman suddenly changed direction without stopping or decreasing the speed as if it had locked on her, and it automatically chased after her!
No matter how hard Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy tried to dodge or run away from it, the golden trident seemed to be able to predict her next movement and seal her escape route!
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only try to block the golden trident''s attack instead.
Just before the golden trident could touch her, the perfect copy instantly activated her [Reflective Barrier]!
She even created anotheryer of transparent barrier with her [Energy Maniption] to protect herself as insurance!
BAAAAAAANG~!
Who knew that the golden trident could actually pierce through the [Reflective Barrier] and the transparent barrier created with [Energy Maniption] easily?!
PUFF~!
Luckily, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy managed to tilt her slender body a bit at thest moment, so the golden trident did not stab into her throat, but it stabbed deeply into her left shoulder instead!
"Cough, cough, cough... Something is not right with this damn trident!" The perfect copy coughed a few mouthfuls of blood whileining in anger.
Then she quickly realized that the extremely cold energy poured into her body!
Her entire body was frozen in an instant, and she became an ice statue!
Before the perfect copy could do anything to break free from the thick ice that encased her entire body, the muscr green merman suddenly appeared right behind her and swung the double sabers in its grasp to behead her!
BOOOOOOOM~!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (2/3)]
If not for [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy would have already detached from her neck!
But thanks to the muscr green merman''s sudden sneak attack, the perfect copy managed to break out from the thick ice, and she quickly used [Wind Burst Step] to keep her distance from the burly purple merman and muscr green merman.
The real Tang Li Xue already put Little Loki and Yaya into her Dantian space a few moments ago.
When her perfect copy managed to get away farther from her foes, Tang Li Xue activated the [Swap] skill to exchange her location with her perfect copy, so she could pass the transparent wall created by the protective formation and instantly appear near the offering altar!
Then Tang Li Xue re-summoned her perfect copy to her side with [Twin Moon] divine ability and released both Yaya and Little Loki from her Dantian space.
Little Loki transformed to its Battle Form and unleashed her nine [Phantom Splitter] clones without any hesitation.
The situation of the battle quickly turned around and became three against fourteen!
Little Loki plus its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones, Lucia, Yaya, Tang Li Xue, and her perfect copy...
"Let''s go, Yaya~!" Tang Li Xue urged Yaya in a solemn tone.
Yaya nodded with a serious expression as she turned into a green sh of green light and merged into Tang Li Xue''s body.
*Ding!
[You have merged with Yaya and entered Divine Possession mode!] N?v(el)B\\jnn
Beautiful crystal-clear fairy wings grew on Tang Li Xue''s back in that instant.
A silver tiara decorated with many glittering green gems appeared on the top of her head.
Tang Li Xue nced at her perfect copy and said to her: "Leave these two to me and Little Loki, you can go and help Lucia instead."
"Okay~! But you better be more careful, that golden trident is very strange and powerful." The perfect copy warned Tang Li Xue before she rushed to help Lucia who was still fighting head-on fiercely against the crimson carapace merman.
But the muscr green merman was nowhere to be seen anymore. It seemed it had already be invisible again and waited for the right chance to deliver a fatal finishing blow just like before.
Tang Li Xue frowned in annoyance since she could not even sense the muscr green merman even with her [Extrasensory Perception].
Since they could not sense or find the muscr green merman, Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones could only gang up on the burly purple merman with a golden trident!
Right at this time, Lucia was actually facing great difficulty fighting against the crimson carapace merman d in silver armor!
After getting hit heavily by the crimson carapace merman, Lucia used [Golden Light Spell] to cover her entire body with the transparent golden barrier to protect herself.
Then Lucia began to fight head-on fiercely in melee range against the crimson carapace merman!
[de Feather sh]~!
[Rapid Peck]~!
[Tearing w]~!
Lucia unleashed a flurry ofbo at the crimson carapace merman mercilessly!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Unfortunately, all of Lucia''s attacks were easily blocked by the crimson carapace merman''s silver armor, and the crimson carapace merman remainedpletely unaffected!
The crimson carapace merman grabbed Lucia''s neck with its crab-like w hand, and it began to beat Lucia''s body with its other w hand rapidly!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
The sturdy [Golden Light Spell] barrier that protected Lucia''s entire body was filled with cracks after the crimson carapace merman hit her dozens of times!
This could already show that Lucia''s [Golden Light Spell] barrier was extremely hard to break!
Tang Li Xue''s [Reflective Barrier] and transparent barrier created from [Energy Maniption] would definitely have already copsed after receiving two or three heavy punches from the crimson carapace merman!
Lucia tried to break free from the crimson carapace merman''s grasp, but its pincer mped her neck so tightly!
Without any other choice, Lucia could only cancel her [Gigantification] divine ability.
When her body shrunk rapidly, Lucia took this chance to get away from the crimson carapace merman''s grasp.
With Lucia''s extremely fast speed, the crimson carapace merman could not even catch up with Lucia when she kept her distance from it.
At this moment, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had arrived by Lucia''s side to help her fight against the crimson carapace merman.
"Don''t worry, Lucia~! I am sure we can defeat that crab in a tin can easily if we work together!" The perfect copyforted the embarrassing Lucia with her confident words.
Chapter 854 854: Difficult Battle!
Chapter854 854: Difficult Battle!
The crimson carapace merman d in silver armor did not take Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy seriously as it charged fearlessly toward her and Lucia!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy sneered confidently while muttering in a mocking tone: "I really want to see if your cool-looking armor can withstand some electric shock~!"
The perfect copy gracefully raised her slender soft hand and the terrifying deep purple lightning sparks began to burst out from her body!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The rumbling sound of thunder echoed inside the armory when the deep purple lightning condensed into a majestic figure!
[World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]~!
Purple lightning and thunder intertwined with each other, and it condensed to form a dark purple lightning dragon illuminating the dark and gloomy armory!
The majestic deep purple lightning dragon immediately shed toward the crimson carapace merman d in silver armor, and they shed head-on violently against each other!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy knew that her [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] should be far from enough to kill the crimson carapace merman.
But at least, she thought that her [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] should be more than enough to beat up that crimson carapace merman and rub it onto the ground for a while.
BWOOOSH~!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy: "???!!!"
Surprisingly, the crimson carapace merman suddenly rushed out from the dense smoke and dust caused by the previous violent sh between it and [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]!
The crimson carapace merman was actuallypletely unaffected and unscathed!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was caughtpletely off guard by it, and it was already toote for her to react!
Fortunately, Lucia, who stood by the perfect copy''s side, was quick enough to react.
Lucia instantly activated her [Slow Motion] buff while sprinting forward to block the crimson carapace merman!
[Slow Motion: The user will feel the flow of time around him/her slow down tenfold. Buff duration: 5 minutes, Cooldown: 1 hour.]
The crimson carapace merman threw a heavy punch with its crab-like w hand!
But in Lucia''s sight, the speed of crimson carapace merman''s punch was as slow as a crawling turtle!
Lucia easily dodged it while unleashing her flurry ofbo to counterattack!
[de Feather shes] x20~!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Lucia repeatedly swung her golden-edged sharp wings toward the crimson carapace merman''s weak points such as its neck, armpit, stomach, heart, chest, and so on.
Lucia''s attacks were so fast that even Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could only see dozens of afterimages in less than one breath!
Unfortunately, all of Lucia''s attacks failed to even leave any scratch on the crimson carapace merman''s silver armor!
"Holy cow~! What the hell is that freaking armor?! It does not conduct electricity, and it also does not even have any gap?! It does not make any sense at all, right?!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in shock mixed with frustration.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy gnashed her pearl-white teeth as her stunningly beautiful face flushed red in anger and shame.
She also activated her [Wings of Freedom] buff without any hesitation to increase her speed by a few times before she dashed swiftly toward the crimson carapace merman with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to help Lucia!
At this moment, the crimson carapace merman was still throwing heavy punches toward Lucia, and sometimes, it would try to catch Lucia with its w hand, so Lucia would not be able to dodge or move around freely anymore.
But the crimson carapace merman''s every attack and move was only as slow as a snail when Lucia''s [Slow Motion] buff was still in effect, so Lucia could dodge all of them effortlessly!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took the chance when the crimson carapace merman was too focused on Lucia tounch a sneak attack at it from behind!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
BAAAANG~!
[Moon Shattering Strike] was the only direct defense pration attack that Tang Li Xue had.
It should be the most effective attack against thick-armored enemies like this crimson carapace merman.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy even deliberately struck the back of the crimson carapace merman''s head from behind with all of her strength!
Normally, this attack should be more than enough to burst the crimson carapace merman''s brain and turn it into mush!
But who knew that the crimson carapace merman would still remainpletely unaffected even after being hit by the perfect copy''s [Moon Shattering Strike] heavily on its head?!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief. She had bepletely dumbfounded for a few moments.
This crimson carapace merman d in silver armor was definitely the true image of the imprable walking metal tank!
The crimson carapace merman took this opportunity to grab the perfect copy''s fragile-looking neck with its w hand!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was instantly unable to breathe and felt as if her snowy-white neck would be crushed by the crimson carapace merman''s strong w hand! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The perfect copy''s feet left the floor as the crimson carapace merman picked her up easily with one hand!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Lucia attacked the crimson carapace merman many more times desperately, but it stillpletely ignored Lucia as if Lucia''s attacks could not even tickle it.
It seemed the crimson carapace merman was really determined to finish off Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy first!
Normally, the real Tang Li Xue only needed to un-summon her perfect copy to get away from it, but unfortunately, the real Tang Li Xue was too busy to pay any attention to her perfect copy right now!
.....
At this moment, the real Tang Li Xue and Little Loki in its Battle Form plus its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones were fighting fiercely against the burly purple merman with a golden trident!
After exchanging dozens of moves, Tang Li Xue already realized that the burly purple merman''s golden trident was truly extraordinary.
It was not inferior at allpared to the crimson carapace merman''s imprable silver armor!
The golden trident could pierce all kinds of defense easily as if they were made from paper!
It could also automatically lock and track its attack target, so dodging its attack was only a futile effort.
With these two effects, the golden trident was truly the scariest weapon that Tang Li Xue had ever seen or faced so far!
Of course, it did not mean this golden trident waspletely invincible.
The burly purple merman thrust its golden trident swiftly toward Tang Li Xue''s neck!
Tang Li Xue had already activated her [Wings of Freedom] buff, so she could react much faster than usual.
Her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] was not fast enough, so she activated her [Wind Burst Step] to swiftly retreat back further from the burly purple merman!
BWOOOOSH~!
The tip of the golden trident was stopped right in front of Tang Li Xue''s face, but it failed to reach her!
Yes, this was one of the ways to face the mighty golden trident that Tang Li Xue found.
Since she could not block and dodge its attack, then she just needed to get away from the radius of its attack in time!
Anyway, it was impossible for the burly purple merman to throw its golden trident like a javelin at Tang Li Xue unless it did not mind if she picked it up and used that golden trident against itself!
She could also use the ck [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp to block it.
The [Sword of Disaster] she has should be a much higher grade weaponpared to the golden trident, so it should not break even if she used it to block the golden trident''s powerful attacks.
However, she would feel as if both of her hands were almost torn apart after she tried to do it before, so getting out from the radius of its attack should be the most feasible choice.
Meanwhile, Little Loki only used its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones to keep harassing and slowly wearing down the burly purple merman!
Of course, Little Loki had long been greedy for the golden trident, the ck treasure boots, and the silver armor!
Little Loki already wanted to eat them since the very start in one gulp using its [Heaven''s Devour], but Tang Li Xue hastily stopped Little Loki from doing it.
These three treasures were clearly extraordinary, so how could she let Little Loki eat them just like that?!
Little Loki was extremely displeased by Tang Li Xue''s decision, but fortunately, it still obediently followed it.
"All right, Little Loki... Can you please stop sulking already? You have already eaten so many precious ores and materials before, so you should at least leave these three treasures for me, Lucia, and Yaya, right?!" Tang Li Xue said tofort the pouting Little Loki.
Before Little Loki could answer Tang Li Xue...
PUFF~!
The muscr green merman who was wearing the pitch-ck treasure boots suddenly appeared behind Tang Li Xue and stabbed at her from behind!
Its objective was to stab at Tang Li Xue''s heart from behind, but Tang Li Xue reacted extremely fast by twisting her slender body to the right side in order to dodge the muscr green merman''s des!
However, the muscr green merman''s des still managed to graze Tang Li Xue''s back, leaving a long bloody horizontal wound on her back!
"Hiss, this sneaky green bast*rd~!" Tang Li Xue angrily cursed while hissing in pain.
Tang Li Xue quickly brandished her pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] at the muscr green merman in rage, but it had already retreated away and disappeared again!
Tang Li Xue could only gnash her pearl-white teeth in unbearable rage!
"Don''t think that I really cannot find you just because you have those treasured boots~!" Tang Li Xue murmured while grinning evilly.
Chapter 855 855: Impenetrable Shield, Unstoppable Spear?!
Chapter855 855: Imprable Shield, Unstoppable Spear?!
Right before the muscr green merman retreated away and used the treasured boots'' ability to vanish, Tang Li Xue had secretly put a tracker on it with her [Mapping Sense] skill.
Tang Li Xue sneered mischievously as she peeked at the map in her mind to track the exact location of the invisible muscr green merman.
But Tang Li Xue instantly felt dumbfounded when she still could not find the invisible muscr green merman''s location even with her [Mapping Sense] skill!
Yes, her [Mapping Sense] tracker also disappeared when that muscr green merman vanished!
"Damn it~! How can it be?!" Tang Li Xue angrily cursed in frustration.
Then she immediately realized that her [Mapping Sense] was only an ordinary skill after all. She had not even merged or upgraded it to divine ability yet, so it made sense that it could notpete with the ability of the treasured boots.
Right at this second, the burly purple merman suddenly broke out forcefully from the besiegement of Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones, then rushed swiftly toward Tang Li Xue with its golden trident!
At first, Tang Li Xue did not take it too seriously since she had already entered [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya, so she had full confidence in her speed.
Who knew that the burly purple merman changed the way it wielded its golden trident from forceful to swift and unpredictable?!
The burly purple merman was skillfully spinning the golden trident in its grasp while moving it around rapidly.
Tang Li Xue felt dizzy just watching the burly purple merman perform so dazzlingly with its golden trident as she tried to read the golden trident''s every movement with her [Wind God''s Eyes].
''Martial arts~?! No, these guys are not zombified creatures, but treasure guardians created by the protective formation, so naturally, they can use all powerful martial arts and spells from the merman race living in this underwater cave.'' Tang Li Xue immediately concluded in her mind.
With the effects of her [Super Speed] plus Yaya''s [Extreme Speed], superimposed with the double speed buffs of [Wind Guardian Blessing] and [Wings of Freedom], Tang Li Xue''s current speed had reached an unprecedented level.
Despite that, she still did not dare to carelessly approach the burly purple merman since the automatic target-locking ability of the golden trident was clearly a perfect counter to her speed.
Tang Li Xue carefully kept a safe distance from the attack radius of the burly purple merman''s golden trident whileunching the ranged attacks toward it!
[Compressed Wind des] x30~!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
The burly purple merman easily blocked all of Tang Li Xue''s attacks with its spinning golden trident!
Then the burly purple merman suddenly swung down its spinning golden trident heavily like a hammer, and it shot a sharp powerful aura wave toward Tang Li Xue!
BWOOOSSH~!
''Holy cow, it can also shoot something like that?!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in shock.
It was already a bit toote for her to avoid it even with her current speed since the sharp powerful aura wave had already reached right in front of her, so she could only try to block it!
Tang Li Xue instantly deployed all of her defensive divine abilities to block it!
[Hurricane Barrier]~!
[Reflective Barrier]~!
The transparent barrier created with [Energy Maniption]~!
BOOOOOOMMM~!
But the sharp powerful aura wave shot by the burly purple merman broke apart all of them in one go!
In the end, Tang Li Xue could only raise the pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] she grasped tightly with both of her hands to block it!
BAAAANG~!
Tang Li Xue''s slender body was thrown back dozens of meters until she crashed hard onto the invisible formation wall and coughed several mouthfuls of blood!
Both of her hands went so numb that she almost could not raise or hold her [Sword of Disaster] properly anymore.
Thankfully, the burly purple merman''s aura wave shot had been weakened a lot after breaking through Tang Li Xue''s previous threeyers of defense, so it could only deal some superficial damage to Tang Li Xue right now.
Right at this time, the sneaky muscr green merman appeared out of nowhere once again andunched a sneak attack at Tang Li Xue who had not recovered yet from behind!
But Little Loki had already predicted a few moments ago that this would happen, so it immediately urged its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones to pounce at the sneaky muscr green merman right at the moment when it appeared!
Unfortunately, the sneaky muscr green merman was extremely cunning and cautious.
When it noticed the movements of Little Loki''s clones, it quickly canceled its attempt to sneak attack Tang Li Xue, then retreated back and hid again in the dark.
Little Loki was very pissed off when it realized that its ambush attack was utterly failed.
However, Little Loki did not dwell too much on it and returned to its previous task to harass the burly purple merman with its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones, so the burly purple merman would not attack Tang Li Xue again.
It only took a while for Tang Li Xue topletely recover with her [High-Speed Regeneration] skill and [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s rapid health regeneration.
Tang Li Xue did not immediately charge to battle blindly.
She frowned deeply when she noticed her perfect copy and Lucia were also facing a lot of difficulty fighting against the crimson carapace merman in silver armor.
At this rate, her team might really lose to this merman''s treasure guardian team sooner orter!
"Should I just go all out by canceling my [Human Transfiguration] and transform back to my fox form? No, it would still not solve this current situation. I might only spend my energy much more rapidly if I did it." Tang Li Xue bit her pink lips in frustration as she tried to think of an effective n to bring her team to win against the merman''s treasure guardian team.
Then a light of inspiration suddenly shed in Tang Li Xue''s mind as her topaz blue eyes shone brightly in excitement.
When she saw the imprable silver armor and the golden trident that could prate any defense, she recalled an old paradox story about the imprable shield and unstoppable spear from her previous life.
''I really want to see if that silver armor is really imprable, or if the golden trident can truly prate any defense~!'' Tang Li Xue thought as her pink lips curved upward in amusement.
"But I have to eliminate that sneaky green bast*rd first before my n can work!" Tang Li Xue murmured in a cold tone.
The muscr green merman had already sneak-attacked Tang Li Xue from behind several times, so it was not strange that Tang Li Xue had be extremely resentful and angry at it right now.
"All right, it seems I can only use ''that'' to track the sneaky green bast*rd ..." Tang Li Xue said in a solemn tone.
Tang Li Xue closed her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes and took a deep breath as she began to connect the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in her Dantian with her [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline.
With her [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] as the core and her [Sun Domain] Prototype as the vessel, she connected them to the [Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes] on her eyes!
When Tang Li Xue opened her eyes again, her topaz blue eyes had already changed color to dazzling golden.
[Fiery Bright Eyes]~!
This was the skill she identally learned from the heartless cave!
This [Fiery Bright Eyes] not only had the power to see through any disguise or invisible creatures, but it would also allow her to see through any obstacle or object such as walls or trees.
Previously, it could even help her see through the fossil stones that even the others could not see through!
Tang Li Xue did not believe that she could find the sneaky green bast*rd with this [Fiery Bright Eyes]!
Different from the ordinary skill like [Mapping Sense], this [Fiery Bright Eyes] was definitely a top-rank divine ability since Tang Li Xue herself could only barely use it after borrowing a little bit of power from the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in her Dantian.
Just like Tang Li Xue had expected, it only took a few breaths of time for her to find the muscr green merman!
With her [Fiery Bright Eyes], Tang Li Xue could see the muscr green merman very clearly just like how she saw the others!
Even though the muscr green merman was still using the ability of the treasured boots to remain invisible and untraceable, but it could not hide from [Fiery Bright Eyes]!
Tang Li Xue swiftly dashed toward the muscr green merman with [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step] while shing her [Sword of Disaster] toward it!
PUFF~!
The pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] embedded deeply into the muscr green merman''s shoulder! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
There was no blood spurting out from its wound, but its body seemed to be a bit more transparent than before.
"Uwehehehehe! I~CAN~SEE~YOU~NOW~!" Tang Li Xue said rhythmically to the muscr green merman whileughing evilly.
She felt even happier when she saw the astonished expression filled with shock and disbelief on the muscr green merman.
Despite that, the muscr green merman immediately reacted by counterattacking with the double swords in its grasp!
Tang Li Xue swayed her slender body to the right and left, then she easily dodged the muscr green merman''s dual sword attacks.
"So boring~! It seems you are really nothing without the ability from your treasures. All right then you can go back to your eternal sleep now!" Tang Li Xuezily stated to the muscr green merman.
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], sh Draw!
BWOOOSSHH~!
The pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] in Tang Li Xue''s grasp shed past the muscr green merman''s neck, then the muscr green merman''s head fell down onto the ground below Tang Li Xue''s feet.
Chapter 856 856: Baiting And Chasing!
Chapter856 856: Baiting And Chasing!
Tang Li Xue did not lower her guard even a bit after she beheaded the muscr green merman.
Just when Tang Li Xue wanted to rush to help Little Loki fight against the burly purple merman, her [Extrasensory Perception] suddenly sensed an iing danger quicklying at her from behind!
Tang Li Xue skillfully spun the pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp to block it!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spin!
CLANG~!
Tang Li Xue managed to block the muscr green merman''s double-sword sh!
Yes, the muscr green merman had actually not died yet!
"You sneaky green bast*rd, I already know you are not dead yet~!" Tang Li Xue muttered in an annoyed tone.
Tang Li Xue got a clue about it because she saw the treasured ck boots worn by the previously killed muscr green merman were not a treasure at all with her [Fiery Bright Eyes].
This extremely cunning muscr green merman should have noticed that Tang Li Xue used some kind of eye technique or divine ability to detect it before, so it deliberately made a clone to deceive her instead.
Then when she let down her guard after defeating it, that muscr green merman would deliver a fatal sneak attack at her at that time.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue could see through its deception with her [Fiery Bright Eyes].
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Tang Li Xue rapidly stabbed and shed her [Sword of Disaster] toward the muscr green merman''s weak points, but the muscr green merman managed to block Tang Li Xue''s barrage of sword attacks with its dual swords!
Surprisingly, this muscr green merman was not only a sneaky and cunning bast*rd who only knew how to sneak attack on people''s backs using its treasured ck boots, but it could also wield extraordinarily powerful dual sword techniques!
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply because she really did not want to spend too much of her time and energy fighting against this sneaky green bast*rd.
There were still two more powerful foes she had to face after this one after all...
Since she could already judge that this muscr green merman was the real one, she immediately decided to be a bit more serious and nned to use one of her trump cards.
After locking on the muscr green merman''s figure with her [Fiery Bright Eyes], Tang Li Xue''s pair of dazzling golden eyes were suddenly glowing brighter with majestic golden light!
[Sun Dragon Fiery Eyes]~!
BBOOOOOMM~!!!
The muscr green merman''s entire body was instantly ignited by the golden mes!
Contrary to Tang Li Xue''s expectations, the muscr green merman did not scream, run away, or roll on the ground in pain to quickly put out the golden mes on its body!
It rushed swiftly toward Tang Li Xue instead as if it wanted to drag Tang Li Xue to die together!
Tang Li Xue did not panic at all. She only shook her head while muttering in a cold tone: "Charging so desperately at me like that will only make you die faster."
[Paragon me Sword], unleashed!
Tang Li Xue infused the pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp with her golden sun mes plus the deep blue me of Pride!
Two different colors of mes intertwined with each other as they mixed perfectly with the sharp sword intent and energy!
Tang Li Xue swung the deep blue and golden me sword toward the iing muscr green merman!
The muscr green merman raised its dual swords to block Tang Li Xue''s attack, but how could her [Paragon me Sword] be blocked that easily?!
The extremely high-temperature mes on top of extremely sharp sword intent and energy made Tang Li Xue''s [Sword of Disaster] easily cut the muscr green merman''s dual swords!
PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue shed the muscr green merman in two with her [Paragon me Sword]!
The muscr green merman''s body really vanished into nothingness after that leaving only its pair of ck treasured boots behind.
Tang Li Xue took the ck treasured boots and carefully checked them.
She sighed in relief after she made sure that the ck treasured boots werepletely undamaged by their battle or by her mes.
It was not the time for her to leisurely refine the ck treasured boots yet, so Tang Li Xue just threw the ck treasured boots into her space pouch first before she rushed to help Little Loki.
''I have spent around a fourth of my energy just to defeat that sneaky green bast*rd. I can only hope my n can work, if not, I would probably not be able to fight for long before I ampletely exhaustedter.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind.
Tang Li Xue had already turned off her [Fiery Bright Eyes], so her stamina and energy would not be wasted for nothing.
[Fiery Bright Eyes] would not be that useful to fight against the other two mermen anyway.
Actually, the burly purple merman had already wanted to charge toward Tang Li Xue several times before to help the muscr green merman, but Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones always managed to stop it.
Different from when she was facing the muscr green merman before, Tang Li Xue did not dare to carelessly approach this burly purple merman since the golden trident in its grasp was too dangerous and troublesome to deal with.
So, Tang Li Xue harassed the burly purple merman with ranged attacks instead.
[Compressed Wind des] x30~!
The burly purple merman spun its golden trident to easily block all of the [Compressed Wind des] that were flying toward it from all directions!
Then it charged forward fearlessly toward Tang Li Xue!
With its strong burly body and huge body size, the burly purple merman looked very intimidating as it rushed swiftly toward Tang Li Xue like a steel tank!
When Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones wanted to stop the burly purple merman again, Tang Li Xue quickly whispered to Little Loki telepathically to stop it: "Let him be, Little Loki~! I have a n for him. You can take a rest for now." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Little Loki nced strangely at Tang Li Xue, but it did not ask too much about it since it trusted Tang Li Xue very much.
But Little Loki still had not immediately dispersed its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones or its Battle Form yet.
Little Loki only quietly watched the battle between Tang Li Xue and the burly purple merman from behind.
However, Little Loki was actually already prepared to assist Tang Li Xue or Lucia with its [Instant Teleportation] at any time. It only waited for the right timing like a hunter lurking on its prey.
Currently, the burly purple merman kept chasing after Tang Li Xue around, but it was not easy for it to catch up with her since Tang Li Xue''s speed while she was still in [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya was almost unmatched.
[Vacuum sh]~!
CLAAANG~!
Tang Li Xue unleashed Yaya''s strongest single-target attack, but the burly purple merman only needed to raise its golden trident to block it.
[Vacuum sh] only managed to stop the burly purple merman for a moment, but slowing down it even for a bit was enough for Tang Li Xue to buy time and prepare for her n.
.....
When the burly purple merman was currently chasing Tang Li Xue around, Lucia and Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy were still fighting desperately against the crimson carapace merman d in silver armor.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was even forced to cancel her [Human Transfiguration] and transform back to her fox form in order to slip out from the crimson carapace merman''s w hand grasp!
BAAAANG~!
The crimson carapace merman threw a heavy punch at the perfect copy until she was thrown back dozens of meters and coughed several mouthfuls of blood.
The crimson carapace merman already tried to attack Lucia tens of times, but it failed to hit Lucia every time because Lucia could see all of its attacks clearly and easily dodge them.
The crimson carapace merman seemed to realize that it was impossible for it to catch or hit Lucia when she still had [Slow Motion] buff, so it focused on attacking Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instead right now.
The crimson carapace merman quickly rushed toward the perfect copy before she could recover!
Lucia did not n to let the crimson carapace merman do whatever it wanted, so she kept rapidly attacking it with her skills!
[de Feather sh]~!
[Rapid Peck]~!
[Tearing w]~!
The crimson carapace mermanpletely ignored all of Lucia''s attacks and just let them hit its body.
Anyway, it was impossible for Lucia''s attacks to break the defense of its silver armor.
When Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy stood up again, the crimson carapace merman had already arrived right in front of her!
The crimson carapace merman stretched its w hand forward to grab the perfect copy''s neck, but the perfect copy hastily rolled to the right side to dodge it.
"Let''s see if your tin can is also resistant to heat!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy angrily said as she unleashed her domain prototype.
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
A brilliant golden light shone as a faint image of the sun formed behind her!
She hastily condensed a pair of imitation [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang] from her golden sun mes and Profound Law of Heat!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy controlled the golden [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang] to attack the crimson carapace merman!
But the crimson carapace merman and its silver armor seemed to bepletely unaffected by the extremely high temperature of the golden [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang]!
BOOOOOOOMM~!
On the contrary, the crimson carapace merman easily broke the perfect copy''s golden [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fang] with its few heavy punches!
Just when the crimson carapace merman focused its attention on Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy again, the burly purple merman suddenly appeared right behind it and thrust its golden trident on its back!
The crimson carapace merman: "???!!!"
The burly purple merman: "???!!!"
Strangely, both mermen seemed to look very surprised as if they had not realized what they had done or what just happened until now!
Chapter 857 857: Close Victory!
Chapter 857 857: Close Victory!
Back to a few moments ago...
Just when the burly purple merman finally managed to get close to Tang Li Xue, Tang Li Xue''s charming topaz blue eyes were shining with mysterious light.
[Eyes of Illusion]~!
Tang Li Xue hastily got away from the burly purple merman''s way to the left side with [Wind Burst Step]!
But the burly purple merman did not seem to see Tang Li Xue who had run to the left side.
In the burly purple merman''s sight, Tang Li Xue was actually still right in front of it, so it sprinted forward fearlessly toward her and thrust the golden trident in its grasp toward Tang Li Xue!
However, Tang Li Xue, who was right in front of it, suddenly broke apart and disappeared like a smoke, when its golden trident pierced her.
Then Tang Li Xue in front of it was reced with the crimson carapace merman instead!
The burly purple merman: "???!!!"
Yes, both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were secretly using their [Eyes of Illusion] in unison on their opponents just now.
The perfect copy also used [Eyes of Illusion] to make the crimson carapace merman fail to notice the approaching Tang Li Xue and the burly purple merman.
By the time the burly purple merman and the crimson carapace merman realized, it was already far toote!
CLANG~! PUUFF~!
The burly purple merman''s golden trident actually managed to pierce the crimson carapace merman''s imprable silver armor and stabbed into its back!
"Damn it~! That stab is not deep enough!" Tang Li Xue immediately concluded with a solemn expression.
The burly purple merman should have woken up from the effect of her [Eyes of Illusion] in time, so it stopped its golden trident right after it stabbed into the crimson carapace merman''s back!
At that critical moment, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy nced at each other with a serious expression.
There was no need for them to give any signs or say anything to each other since their mind was connected with each other.
Tang Li Xue: "Stop moving~!"
Perfect Copy: "Stop moving~!"
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy simultaneously used [Mystic Whisper] to stop the movement of the burly purple merman and the crimson carapace merman!
The movement of the burly purple merman and the crimson carapace merman was halted in that instant!
Then Tang Li Xue took this chance to quickly rush toward the burly purple merman, while her perfect copy was sprinting toward the crimson carapace merman!
[Moon Shattering Strike] x2~!
The perfect copy in her fox form used her head to crash the crimson carapace merman''s chest with all of her strength!
BAAANG~!
The perfect copy bounced back violently more than ten meters after she crashed heavily against the crimson carapace merman in its silver armor.
She felt extremely dizzy and painful as if her skull was hit by a heavy metal hammer, and she could not recover for a while.
At the same time, the real Tang Li Xue in her human form and [Divine Possession Mode] with Yaya jumped and kicked the golden trident''s butt end from behind with all of her strength too!
BOOOOOM~!
The crimson carapace merman''s body tilted backward because of Perfect Copy''s headbutt attack while the burly purple merman''s golden trident moved forward under Tang Li Xue''s kick!
PUFF~!
The golden trident finally stabbed deeper until it pierced through the crimson carapace merman''s silver armor and body!
"ROOOOOOAAAARRR~!"
The crimson carapace merman roared out loud full of unwillingness, but its body still dissipated into nothingness.
The crimson carapace merman''s silver armor turned back into metal liquid before it finally solidified back to the football-sized silver pearl.
The perfect copy sighed in relief while shaking her furry head to clear her dizziness, but the real Tang Li Xue moved quickly to pick up the football-sized silver pearl and threw it into her space pouch.
It would be really bad for them if the burly purple merman became the one who picked up the silver pearl instead and it equipped the silver armor on itself.
Imprable armor and unstoppable golden trident equipped by a single merman would definitely be a nightmare for them!
Tang Li Xue did not even dare to imagine how powerful and troublesome it would be if that really happened, so she snatched the silver pearl as quickly as possible using her current unmatched speed before the burly purple merman could react.
In fact, Tang Li Xue''s hunch was truly right.
The burly purple merman really nned to pick the silver pearl and wear the silver armor on itself, but unfortunately, Tang Li Xue moved one step faster than it.
The burly purple merman was enraged when it saw Tang Li Xue manage to pick up the silver pearl first.
"ROOOOOOAAAARRR~!"
The burly purple merman roared in great anger as it brandished its golden trident at Tang Li Xue!
But Tang Li Xue had been anticipating that, so she hastily activated her [Wind Burst Step] to get away further from the burly purple merman, so she could get out of the golden trident''s attacking range.
BAAAAANG~!
The golden trident almost pierced the hard floor, but it suddenly changed its direction, followed Tang Li Xue''s movement, and stabbed at her!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue had already gotten out of its attacking range, so the tip of the golden trident could only stop right in front of Tang LiXue''s face and blow her long silky silver hairs until they fluttered violently.
Right at this time, Little Loki in its Battle Form and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones along with Lucia rushed toward the burly purple merman to help Tang Li Xue!
"Lucia, its golden spear is very dangerous, so don''t get close to it~! Just attack it from afar using your long-range attack skills instead!" Tang Li Xue quickly warned Lucia.
The previous crimson carapace merman in silver armor might be also very powerful in meleebat, but its lethality level was pretty lowpared to the burly purple merman with its golden trident.
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
The burly purple merman swung its golden trident heavily, and several of Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitter] clones that suddenly appeared around it using [Instant Teleportation] were blown away violently and broken to pieces!
But it only took those broken [Phantom Splitter] clones a while topletely recover and return back to normal.
When the burly purple merman realized it, it was alreadypletely surrounded by Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, Little Loki in its Battle Form plus its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones, and Lucia.
"All right, let''s finish this quickly! We still have to explore the pill and elixir room after this!" Tang Li Xue rxedly said to all of them while swinging her pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] around.
Then both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy unleashed their [Water Mirage], and their figures split into many water clones!
Tang Li Xue also used Yaya''s [Multiple Wind Clones] to create dozens of wind clones!
The army of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy charged toward the burly purple merman from all directions at once!
Little Loki in its Battle Form plus its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones also followed closely right behind them!
Meanwhile, Luciaunched her [de Feather Projectiles] to attack the burly purple merman from afar!
The burly purple merman was spinning the golden trident in its grasp while rotating its body!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
The spinning golden trident managed to block Lucia''s [de Feather Projectiles], and even all of the approaching clones were destroyed mercilessly by it like a giant meat grinder!
[Water Mirage] clones were broken into water puddles while [Multiple Wind Clones] were scattered back to wind after the burly purple merman''s pinning golden trident destroyed them.
Then Lucia suddenly unleashed the skill she had never used until now!
[Blinding Light]~!
Her entire body was shining with a dazzling golden light that illuminated the entire dark armory!
The burly purple merman''s eyes were temporarily blinded by Lucia''s [Blinding Light]!
"Good job, Lucia~!" Tang Li Xue happily praised Lucia.
But who knew that the burly purple merman could actually still urately destroy all of the approaching clones by relying on auto-target locking of its golden trident?! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
[Vacuum sh]~!
CLANG~!
The burly purple merman still managed to block Tang Li Xue''s [Vacuum sh] by spinning its golden trident!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The rumbling sound of thunder echoed inside the armory as Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy condensed a majestic figure with the deep purple lightning!
[World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]~!
Purple lightning and thunder intertwined with each other, and it solidified to form a dark purple lightning dragon!
The majestic deep purple lightning dragon shed toward the burly purple merman!
When the burly purple merman wanted to turn around and block the [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] with its golden trident, Tang Li Xue used her [Mystic Whisper] once again to stop its movement!
Tang Li Xue: "Stop moving~!"
The burly purple merman suddenly halted its movement, and the [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] crashed onto its back!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The burly purple merman was thrown off forward violently until it crashed so hard into the armory''s wall!
Its back was charred by the [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] until it waspletely ck, and there was still purple lightning sparked around its body from time to time.
Tang Li Xue rushed toward the burly purple merman swiftly with her unmatched speed.
The burly purple merman saw that and nned to attack the approaching Tang Li Xue using its golden trident, but its body was still paralyzed and numb by the previous [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon]''s attack!
"It is already over, big guy! Your time is up. You can go back to your eternal sleep now. From dust to dust, from ashes to ashes..." Tang Li Xue said to the burly purple merman as she swung her pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] to behead the paralyzed burly purple merman.
PUUUFF~!
Chapter 858 858: Distribute The Three Treasures!
Chapter858 858: Distribute The Three Treasures!
The burly purple merman vanished into nothingness right after Tang Li Xue beheaded it, leaving only its golden trident behind.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief as she picked up the golden trident from the ground.
She immediately canceled her [Divine Possession Mode], and Yaya got separated again from her body.
Yaya also felt really tired, so she flew toward Little Loki to take a rest together.
Both Yaya and Little Lokiy down on Lucia''sfortable soft back while Lucia also sat on the ground to rest. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The perfect copy did not bother to immediately return to her human form. She alsozily sat in her fox form while sleepily leaning on Lucia''s body.
Tang Li Xue chuckled in amusement when she saw them flock together around Lucia.
But Tang Li Xue also had to admit that it was veryfortable to lean ory on Lucia''s soft and warm body after Lucia evolved to [Golden Winged Wind Riding Bird].
Maybe because of her [Golden-Winged Great Peng] bloodline, even though it was still in the sealed state, but it could still make everyone around Lucia feel safe andfortable.
Tang Li Xue joined them too by sitting and leaning on Lucia to rest while taking out the three treasures they got after defeating three merman''s avatars and checking them one by one using her basic [All Knowing Eyes].

-------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue gasped in shock when she saw the effects and abilities of these three treasures.
They were actually so powerful!
No wonder Tang Li Xue and her team faced so much difficulty when they fought against the three merman''s avatars equipped with these three treasures before!
Previously, Tang Li Xue had already tried to check the powers of these three treasures with her basic [All Knowing Eyes] so she could find a way to defeat the three merman''s avatars, but she could not see anything as if there was a thick fog that covering them.
Maybe it was because there were still three merman''s avatars that wielding these three treasures at that time, so Tang Li Xue''s basic [All Knowing Eyes] could not see through them.
However, these three treasures have be ownerless objects right now, so Tang Li Xue can clearly see their effects and abilities with her basic [All Knowing Eyes].
Tang Li Xue really wanted to equip all of these three treasures on herself, but she immediately realized that Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia seemed to need them much more than her.
She already had [Sun and Moon Aegis] with three times deadly blow protection to protect herself, so she did not really need the [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl].
She also had [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment] to hide herself, so she did not need [Void Lurking Boots] too.
[Ocean God Trident] might be an extremely powerful weapon, but Tang Li Xue had never learned any spear or halberd martial art techniques yet, so her [Sword of Disaster] suited her more at this time.
On the contrary to her, Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia really needed those three treasures so badly...
Lucia might be very powerful in melee battles, but she only had [Golden Vajra Body] to defend herself. Shecked self-protection ability for fatal attack, so [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl] should be the perfect piece of equipment for her.
Little Loki could no longer hide or cover its terrifying evil aura when it was in its Battle Form.
Tang Li Xue was really afraid that someday Little Loki''s true identity as Taotie''s cub would be discovered if someone identally saw Little Loki in its Battle Form.
However, the [Void Lurking Boots] was definitely the perfect treasure for it since it could cover its terrifying evil aura, breath, and presence.
Thest one was Yaya... Yaya was undoubtedly extremely fast, but her offensive skills were clearlyck of lethality.
Even Yaya''s strongest skills such as [Cyclone Storm] and [Vacuum sh] still somewhatcked in terms of power since both of them still could not break the opponents with thick defense.
Thus the [Ocean God Trident] should be a perfect weapon for Yaya.
If Yaya could wield the [Ocean God Trident] with her extremely high speed, she could deliver fatal attacks to any enemies with thick defense!
Tang Li Xue could still easily keep her distance when she fought against the burly purple merman wielding the [Ocean God Trident], but it would be a nightmare for her if she faced Yaya who wields the [Ocean God Trident] instead.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in heartache, but she still decided to give these three treasures to Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia in the end.
"Lucia, this [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl] is a perfect treasure for you. Come here, I will help you wear it." Tang Li Xue stood up and said to Lucia.
Lucia happily stood up and approached Tang Li Xue until Little Loki and Yaya whoy on her back sleepily almost fell down because of it.
Both Tang Li Xue and Lucia still did not know how to use the [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl], so they kept tinkering with it for ten minutes or so.
Finally, the [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl] turned into liquid and moved to cover Lucia''s body after Lucia injected enough of her vitality energy into the [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl].
The silver metal liquid began to cover Lucia''s body, head, wings, and even her ws then solidified into silver armor.
Lucia in silver armor looked really cool and elegant that Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, Little Loki, and Yaya eximed at her in admiration.
"Woah~! You look so much more impressive in that silver armor!" Tang Li Xue praised Lucia while patting her head and neck which were already covered in silver armor.
"KWEAAAK~! (Thank you~!)" Lucia chirped while happily snuggling to Tang Li Xue''s chest.
Little Loki and Yaya red at Lucia unhappily as their hearts were burned in envy and jealousy.
Tang Li Xueughed at Little Loki and Yaya who were pouting cutely at her.
"Hahahaha~! Don''t worry, you two will also have shares!" Tang Li Xueforted Little Loki and Yaya.
She took the [Void Lurking Boots] and gave it to Little Loki while exining: "These boots can help you cover your evil aura when you are in your Battle Form. So hopefully, no one would notice your identity as Taotie Cub with its aura, breath, and presence concealment."
Then she finally took out thest treasure, the [Ocean God Trident], and gave it to Yaya while saying: "Yaya, your skillsck some fatal finishing move, so this [Ocean God Trident] can help you make up for that disadvantage. With it, you surely can defeat much stronger enemies from now on."
Both Little Loki and Yaya also happily received the treasures given by Tang Li Xue to them.
The [Ocean God Trident] could shrink and erge ording to the user''s will, so Yaya immediately made the [Ocean God Trident] shrink to her size, and she joyfully yed around with it.
Yaya could even control the [Ocean God Trident] with her wind control skill and made it fly swiftly around her.
Meanwhile, Little Loki activated its [Heaven''s Devour] and swallowed the [Void Lurking Boots] in one gulp, then fell quickly asleep.
Tang Li Xue did not really mind it since she knew that Little Loki would surely obtain all of [Void Lurking Boots]''s abilities after Little Loki finished digesting them.
After resting for two hours or so, Tang Li Xue let Lucia, Little Loki, and Yaya familiarize themselves with their treasures before she led them out of the armory and headed straight to the pill and elixir room.
Chapter 859: The Danger In The Pill And Elixir Room!
859 Chapter 859: The Danger In The Pill And Elixir Room!
After Tang Li Xue and her team went out from the armory, they went back to the front hall first.
Tang Li Xue chatted for a while with Xi''er, and she asked for more detailed information about the pill and elixir room from Xi''er. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Unfortunately, Xi''er really did not know much about the other rooms since her job was only to guard the front hall from the very start.
Xi''er could not ess even all the rooms other than the front hall, and she could only move freely in the front hall.
Tang Li Xue secretly felt disappointed, but she did not say or show it to Xi''er in order not to make Xi''er feel ufortable because of it.
Tang Li Xue bid farewell again to Xi''er with a kind smile on her beautiful face to reassure Xi''er before she led her team to climb thest stair in the middle of the front hall behind Xi''er.
There were many rooms on the right and left side of the corridor after the stairs.
Those rooms seemed to be used for storing things such as foods and other misceneous things, but all of them were already eaten by time andpletely decayed.
There was nothing precious stored there, so Tang Li Xue simply ignored all of those rooms and headed straight to the bronze gate at the end of the corridor.
Tang Li Xue did not want to repeat what happened at the armory, so she instructed Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia to stand aside from the bronze gate.
Then she let her perfect copy push open the bronze gate and enter the pill and elixir room first to make sure that it was really safe.
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes in displeasure at Tang Li Xue''s unfair treatment, but she did not want to waste their time protesting or scolding Tang Li Xue.
They were only one step away from getting the precious treasures containing star energy stored in this underwater pce after all.
The perfect copy''s desire to quickly evolve into [Rare]-Grade beast was not inferior to the real Tang Li Xue, so she chose to swallow her dissatisfaction this time and stretched her slender hands to carefully push open the bronze gate.
CREAK~!
The rusty bronze gate made a loud noise that echoed through the entire quiet corridor when Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy pushed it open.
The pill and elixir room was also dark and gloomy like the previous armory room, but Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could still see everything clearly with their [Night Vision] skill.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy did not meet with any ambush or enemies after she stepped into the pill and elixir room, so the real Tang Li Xue reassuredly led her team to enter the pill and elixir room too.
Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue quickly noticed the strangeness of this pill and elixir room right after she stepped into it.
Yes, this pill and elixir room was actually filled with green vines. Not only on the ground below their feet but even the walls and ceiling were covered with so many green vines.
Tang Li Xue instantly felt a bad feeling about this and frowned deeply in worry.
"Little Loki, can you please use your [Phantom Splitter] to scout around this pill and elixir room first?" Tang Li Xue instructed Little Loki in a solemn tone.
Little Loki also sensed that something was not right with this room, so it immediately agreed and nodded its tiny furry head at Tang Li Xue.
Little Loki quickly summoned out its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones and ordered them to spread out and see if there were any dangers lurking in this pill and elixir room.
Once any of its [Phantom Splitter] clones bumped into any dangers, Little Loki would know it in an instant, and it could warn Tang Li Xue and the others beforehand.
There are so many tiered shelves in this pill and elixir rooms.
Countless bottles and wooden chests were stored on those tiered shelves.
Tang Li Xue tried to check the contents of those bottles and wooden chests, but she could only sigh in great disappointment.
Those bottles were used to store pills, while the wooden chests were used to store elixirs, herbs, and other alchemist materials.
Unfortunately, all of them had beenpletely spoiled or decayed after tens of thousands of years had passed.
Even many of those bottles and wooden chests were shattered to dust when Tang Li Xue tried to touch them.
"I hope the precious treasures with star energies I need are not spoiled yet... No, since the treasure map showed that there are precious treasures with star energies here, it means the precious treasures with star energies here should be still intact. It should be impossible for the treasure map produced by the System to be wrong." Tang Li Xue muttered to convince herself.
Tang Li Xue decided to stop checking the bottles and wooden chests on the tiered shelves one by one and just headed deeper into the pill and elixir room.
She concluded that the most precious treasures should be stored in the deepest part of the room just like the previous three treasures stored in the armory.
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not rashly bring her team there without knowing the danger hidden in the deepest part of the room, so she could only urge her perfect copy and Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitter] clones to probe the way in front of them to be safe.
After five minutes or so, Tang Li Xue and her team finally reached the deepest part of the pill and elixir room without bumping into any dangers.
There was actually a small herbal garden there!
This small herbal garden should be used to nt the most precious herbs or nts, so those mermen could harvest their fruits, leaves, flower petals, or other precious parts of those nts once they reached harvest time.
However, Tang Li Xue only saw one type of nt in the current small herbal garden.
Yes, the small herbal garden waspletely filled with the ''overflowing'' strange green vines.
Those strange green vines were too lush that they spilled out from the small herbal garden until they covered the entire pill and elixir room!
Tang Li Xue''s bad feelings had gotten much worse when she saw the strange green vines in this small herbal garden.
She really did not want to step into the small herbal garden, but her hunch said that she could only find the precious treasures containing the star energy she wanted in this ce.
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy took a deep breath and gritted her pearl-white teeth before she stepped into the small herbal garden.
But just as she stepped onto the strange green vines in the small herbal garden, she could feel that the strange green vines under her feet seemed to tremble slightly!
"Err, it might be only my feeling, but I think these strange green vines..." Before the perfect copy could finish her words, all of the strange green vines inside the pill and elixir room were actually moving at the same time!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The strange green vines under their feet suddenly coiled around their legs to prevent them from moving around or running away!
Those strange green vines even wanted topletely bind their bodieswhile the strange green vines on the ceiling moved down to strangling their necks!
Of course, Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia would not let them do it just like that!
[Moonlight sh]~!
[Scythe w Qi]~!
[Compressed Wind des]~!
[de Feather sh]~!
Tang Li Xue and her team cut those strange green vines with their skills to free themselves!
But those strange green vines remained unaffected since they could actually grow back again in the blink of an eye, not to mention that their numbers were too numerous!
"Damn it~! Should we just use our mes to burn down all of these annoying vines at once?!" The perfect copy suggested in an annoyed tone.
However, Tang Li Xue immediately rejected her idea by saying: "No way~! What if we identally burn down the precious treasures with star energy too?! All of our efforts would be in vain by then!"
"Then what should we do?! There are just too many of them! Our two hands definitely not enough to cut down all of them!" The perfect copy anxiously asked.
Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth and asked Little Loki instead: "Little Loki, can you sense the location of the treasures with star energy?"
Little Loki immediately nodded its head at Tang Li Xue.
"Great~! Now, quickly lead us there! Once we get the treasures with star energy, we can just use our mes to burn down all of these annoying vines!" Tang Li Xue delightfully said.
Unfortunately, it was really easy for her to say it, but it was definitely not an easy thing to do!
Those strange green vines were not only too numerous but they were also scattered everywhere!
Ceiling, floor, and walls... They werepletely everywhere in this pill and elixir room!
Tang Li Xue and her team would step on them every step of the way, and those strange green vines could sense them because of it!
Then they would crazilyunch the crazy attack on them at once after that!
Even an elephant could get killed by hundreds of thousands of ants, and these strange green vines were clearly much stronger than ants, their number might even reach tens of millions! Tang Li Xue and her team already had to face so many strange green vines, and it was only the beginning! (>w<)

Chapter 860: Besieged From All Sides!
860 Chapter 860: Besieged From All Sides!
Tang Li Xue took out the pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] from her space pouch and began to swing it around rapidly to cut the strange green vines that came toward her!
But no matter how many she cut, those strange green vines kepting at her and her team from all directions like a flood!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue was not alone...
Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, Yaya, Lucia, Little Loki, and its nine [Phantom Splitter] Clones were fighting the iing strange green vines together while forming a circle with their back against each other, so they could protect each other nks and rear.
[de Feather sh]~! [Tearing w]~!
[sh and sh]~! [Scythe w Qi]~!
[Compressed Wind des] x15~! [Compressed Wind Swords] x15~!
[Repelling Spins]~! [Rapid Quick shes]~!
[Sharp Edge Power]~! [Moonlight sh]~!
Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, Yaya, Lucia, Little Loki, and its nine [Phantom Splitter] Clones kept unleashing their skills to shatter the countless approaching strange green vines!
Despite that, Tang Li Xue and her team could only proceed really slowly to the deeper part of the small herbal garden while kept fighting nonstop fiercely to prevent the countless strange green vines from getting close to them.
But there was no doubt that the pressure given by the countless strange green vines was increasingly stronger as they got closer to the deepest part of the small herbal garden!
Little Loki felt really annoyed by the strange green vines and finally decided to use its strongest skill to clean them!
Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] Clones transformed from their kitten form to their Battle Form in that instant!
Then the real Little Loki opened its mouth...
[Heaven''s Devour]~!
Surprisingly, the power of [Heaven''s Devour] became a lot stronger while Little Loki was in its Battle Form!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Countless strange green vines were rapidly sucked into Little Loki''s mouth!
"Amazing, Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue excitedly shouted while pping her hands.
Just like a strong vacuum cleaner sucking all the dirt, countless strange green vines in front of Little Loki were sucked and devoured by Little Loki in only a few moments. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Unfortunately, Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour] could only clean the countless strange green vines in its direction.
The others still had to fight fiercely against the approaching strange green vines in their respective directions, but at least, the pressure they faced was relieved a lot thanks to Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour].
With Little Loki leading with its [Heaven''s Devour], the exploration progress speed of Tang Li Xue and her team increased significantly once again!
At this rate, it might not take long for Tang Li Xue and her team to find the precious treasures with star energies in this pill and elixir room!
After proceeding a few hundred meters, Tang Li Xue saw a cave embedded in the wall.
It seemed to be a man-made cave created to preserve and cultivate the precious nts.
The protective formation even covered the cave entrance to prevent any intruder from sneaking in and stealing something inside it.
Thankfully, they did not need to worry about how to crack the protective formation in order to enter the cave since Little Loki only needed to use its [Heaven''s Devour] to forcefully create a hole in that protective formation.
Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, Yaya, Lucia, Little Loki, and its nine [Phantom Splitter] Clones quickly jumped into the hole in the protective formation and entered the dark cave before the hole could recover and get closed again.
But those strange green vines suddenly changed their movement after Tang Li Xue and her team managed to enter the cave!
Those strange green vines stopped attacking Tang Li Xue and her team blindly like before and began to intertwine with each other to form something!
"Oh, damn it~! I have a really bad feeling about this." Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy muttered in a solemn tone.
Little Loki also stopped using its [Heaven''s Devour] since those strange green vines had stopped attacking Tang Li Xue and her team for now.
Continuously using [Heaven''s Devour] was actually very taxing even for the current Little Loki in its Battle Form, so it needed some time to take a breath and recover.
"Let''s go~! Just let them be and help me find the treasures with star energy instead!" Tang Li Xue urged her team with an anxious tone.
Unfortunately, the countless strange green vines had finished what they wanted to do before Tang Li Xue and her team could enter deeper into the dark cave.
The countless strange green vines actually formed hundreds or even thousands of vine soldiers and each of them holding a vine spear!
BWOOOOSH~!
Those thousands of vine soldiers threw their vine spears toward Tang Li Xue and her team in unison while kept charging toward them fearlessly!
Dense vine spears flew swiftly toward Tang Li Xue and her team!
Those dense vine spearspletely filled their vision without leaving them with any space to dodge at all!
"Holy moly~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock, but she quickly created some protective wall to block those vine spears!
[Mother Earth''s Gift], Stone Wall~!
[Energy Maniption], Transparent Protective Barrier~!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy sighed in relief when their doubleyers of defensive barriers managed to block all of those vine spears.
But just as they prepared to face the iing vine soldiers...
"Kweeaaaakk (Watch out, everyone)~!" Lucia anxiously chirped to warn them all!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy also sensed the dangering toward them from behind with their [Extrasensory Perception], but it was already a bit toote for them to react!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
An enormous vine tentacle created from millions of strange green vines intertwined together into one suddenly whipped toward Tang Li Xue and her team from above!
Even Tang Li Xue and her team really did not expect this sudden sneak attack since the strange green vines were using the previous vine spears and the vine soldiers as distractions to attract their attention!
The real finishing move was actually this enormous vine tentacle!
The entire sturdy underground pce shook violently for a few moments as the enormous vine tentacle stomped Tang Li Xue and her team like a falling heavy mountain!
The strange green vines thought Tang Li Xue and her team should have been crushed to a puddle of blood under the enormous vine tentacle''s attack, so it slowly dispersed again.
Who knew the strange green vines found that Tang Li Xue and her team had actually not died yet?!
At thest moment before the enormous vine tentacle could crush Tang Li Xue and her team, Lucia suddenly jumped toward them while using her [Gigantification] to erge her body!
Yes, Lucia used her body to protect Tang Li Xue and her team!
Of course, her entire body was already covered with silver armor made from [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl].
Not only that, Lucia also activated all of her defensive skills to increase her defense further!
[Golden Light Spell]~!
[Golden Vajra Shield]~!
Thanks to that, Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, Yaya, and Little Loki were unharmed by the enormous vine tentacle''s sneak attack!
"Lucia~! Are you all right?" Tang Li Xue asked in a worried tone as she hastily took out [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from her space pouch and used it on Lucia.
Lucia shook her head to reassure Tang Li Xue, but her back was actually injured quite badly.
Fortunately, Lucia could recover pretty quickly since her [Golden Vajra Body] had a high-speed regeneration effect plus Tang Li Xue''s [Talisman of Regeneration +3], it might only take dozens of breaths for her wounds topletely recover.
But before that could happen, thousands of vine soldiers with vine spears in their grasp had alreadypletely surrounded Tang Li Xue and her team from all directions!
The strange green vines really did not give any time for Tang Li Xue and her group to take a breath at all!
"These damn annoying vegetables~! Everyone, let''s just buy some time for Lucia to recover!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in rage while shouting to instruct her team.
However, something even more surprising suddenly happened right in front of their eyes!
Those thousands of vine soldiers actually knew how to use army formation and martial arts!
Tens of vine soldiers were attacking Tang Li Xue in a neat formation while performing their spear techniques!
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Tang Li Xue was forced to use her [Sword Disaster] to block those vine soldiers'' spear technique attacks!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Redirection Flow!
Tang Li Xue redirected those vine soldiers'' spear technique attacks to stab into the ground, then she stepped onto their spear and unleashed her counterattack!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Even though Tang Li Xue managed to behead those dozens of vine soldiers, but they could still actually move around as usual without being affected at all!
They pulled their spear from the ground and began to attack Tang Li Xue once again simultaneously!
Not only Tang Li Xue, but others were also facing the same difficulties fighting against those vine soldiers!
Those vine soldiers were not only powerful and annoying, but they were also fearless and could not be killed!
Well, their bodies were made from intertwined vines after all, so they could easily recover even if Tang Li Xue and her team cut them apart!
Just as Tang Li Xue and her group were too upied in fighting against those unkible vine soldiers, another enormous vine tentacle whipped toward them again from above!
I am really sorry for not publishing any chapter in several days. My right hand got injured, so I could not write. (TwT) I want to finish a chapter and publish it since yesterday, but I can only finish it now.

Chapter 861: The Only Way To Find The Treasures!
Chapter 861: The Only Way To Find The Treasures!
However, Tang Li Xue and her group were already very wary of the enormous vine tentacle, so they immediately noticed its second sneak attack from above!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy hastily activated their [Wind Burst Step].
Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones used their [Instant Teleportation], while Yaya and Lucia could easily get out from the enormous vine tentacle''s attack range just by relying on their extremely high speed.
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
The enormous vine tentacle struck down heavily like a falling mountain for the second time, but it failed to hit anyone from Tang Li Xue''s team this time.
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy nced at each other and nodded at each other in tacit understanding.
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Moon Form~!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy might not dare to use any of their me-type divine abilities and Sun Domain since they were afraid of ruining the treasures with star energies hidden in this pill and elixir room, but it should be no problem for them to use Moon Domain to freeze and slow down the vine soldiers around them!
The enchanting silver light shone as a faint image of the moon formed behind Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy!
In that instant, the unbearable cold aura quickly spread around the two of them!
Hundreds of vine soldiers who charged fearlessly toward them were caughtpletely off guard, and their bodies were covered in a thickyer of white frost!
When Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy saw the frozen vine soldiers who could no longer move, both of them quickly attacked those frozen vine soldiers with their skills!
Perfect copy unleashed her [Moonlight sh], while Tang Li Xue used her [Supreme Speed Sword Style], Rapid Quick shes, with the [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
So many frozen vine soldiers shattered to pieces under Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy''s attacks like a bunch of fragile porcin, but the number of destroyed vine soldiers was only a drop of a bucketpared to the tens of thousands of vine soldiers that filled the entire wide cave like an ant nest!
Tang Li Xue frowned when she saw the vast number of vine soldiers and said to her team: "It would be very bad for us if we stay like this. I think we should..."
But before Tang Li Xue could finish her words, the strange green vines suddenly did somethingpletely unexpected by Tang Li Xue and her team!
Dozens of sharp green vine spikes out from the ground and stab at Tang Li Xue and her team!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue and her team did not even have time to react since they were too busy fighting against the vine soldiers that kept besieging them from all sides, so they failed to notice the strange green vines'' attack!
Lucia, Little Loki, and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones had thick armor, so the sharp green vine spikes could not break through their defense.
The small and agile Yaya was floating in the mid-air above the other''s head, so she could react fast enough to dodge the sharp green vine spikes. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
But Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were caughtpletely unprepared, so those dozens of sharp green vine spikes pierced through their slender bodies until their blood sttered on the ground, and they coughed a few mouthfuls of blood from their mouths.
"These damn bast*rd vines~!" Tang Li Xue angrily cursed as she swung her [Sword of Disaster] to cut the sharp green vine spikes that pierced her body.
Despite feeling really angry and annoyed, Tang Li Xue had to admit that these strange green vines were actually very smart, and they also had high adaptability.
From using the vine soldiers as a distraction, then attacking them with an enormous vine tentacle from above, then unleashing sneaky vine spikes from the underground to attack them when they were wary of the enormous vine tentacle''s attack from above...
It was as if these strange green vines could actually think, and their IQ were far from low!
Tang Li Xue had already prepared to face powerful enemies that guarding the treasures with star energies in this pill and elixir room, but she never expected that her enemies would be these numerous and very tricky to deal with!
Thankfully, her wounds and her perfect copy''s wounds were far from fatal, and it would not take long for them topletely recover with their [High-Speed Regeneration] and [Sun And Moon Aegis].
"The most crucial problem right now is that we have not even seen a glimpse of the treasures with star energy yet until this moment." Tang Li Xue muttered in a frustrated tone.
Even though Little Loki had the ability to sense the treasures, and it should be able to lead them to find the treasures with star energy, but they could not even move freely in this huge cave right now since they kept being besieged and assaulted by these densely packed vine soldiers!
When Tang Li Xue and her group kept cutting down the vine soldiers that were charging non-stop fearlessly toward them, Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki without turning her head: "Little Loki, can you sense the exact location of the treasure with star energy right now?"
Little Loki closed its eyes and moved its nose, after it opened its eyes again, it shook its head at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment while muttering: "As I have expected... These damn annoying green vines should have already known our objective, and they should have covered the treasures containing the star energy, so we cannot sense it anymore."
"Then what should we do? We would not search the star energy treasures inch by inch inside this cave, right?" The perfect copy said in a displeased tone.
"No, we cannot waste any more time! These annoying strange green vines are getting more and more used to our skills and attack patterns. I do not want to y with them for too long since they would definitely be more and more annoying as the time passed." Tang Li Xue replied in a resolute tone.
Then she turned around to face her perfect copy and patted her perfect copy''s shoulder while saying in a gentle tone: "My dear perfect copy, it seems we can only count on you right now~!"
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes as she instantly understood what was in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
Yes, Tang Li Xue''s n was for her to use [Paranormal Intuition] in order to quickly find the exact location of the precious treasures containing the star energy hidden in this dark cave!
([Paranormal Intuition]: Dive into the Sea of Knowledge and peek at the Law of Truth.)
"Everyone, help me protect my perfect copy~!" Tang Li Xue shouted to instruct Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia.
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, Lucia, Little Loki, and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones immediately moved to surround the perfect copy, so they could protect her from the vine soldiers.
[Energy Maniption], Transparent Protective Barrier~!
To be safer, Tang Li Xue even created a transparent barrier around her perfect copy to protect her from the sneak attack of the vine spikes from the underground like before.
It was because her perfect copy would bepletely defenseless after she activated [Paranormal Intuition], and she should not be interrupted at that time or it would not only fail, but the bacsh her perfect copy faced would be several times more severe.
The strange green vines noticed that Tang Li Xue and her team wanted to do something, but they could not guess what Tang Li Xue''s n, so they could only control the thousands of vine soldiers to attack Tang Li Xue''s team even more fiercely than before!
Thousands of vine soldiers were charging toward Tang Li Xue and her team from all sides with sharp vine spears in their grasp!
[Repelling Spins]~! [Rapid Quick shes]~!
[Compressed Wind des]~! [Compressed Wind Swords]~!
[de Feather sh]~! [Tearing w]~!
[sh and sh]~! [Scythe w Qi]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue, Yaya, Luxia, Little Loki, and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones chopped down more than a hundred vine soldiers into pieces in the blink of an eye!
But the strange green vines quickly grew back again and intertwined with each other to form another batch of vine soldiers!
Rather than decreasing, the number of vine soldiers kept increasing rapidly instead!
This battle was clearly impossible for Tang Li Xue and her team to win at this rate since the strange green vines and the vine soldiers would definitely wear them down slowly until Tang Li Xue and her team turned into their fertilizer!
Right at this time, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy slowly closed her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes as she finally activated her [Paranormal Intuition].
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy instantly felt extremely suffocated as if she had been thrown into a deep sea.
The entire deep sea was dazzling golden, and it consisted of countless minuscule golden runes and words!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy had already entered this dazzling golden sea a few times.
Yes, this dazzling golden sea should be the Sea of Knowledge that contains all the truth and knowledge of the entire realms!
Learning from her previous painful lesson, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy hastily set up her target to obtain the information about the exact location of the precious treasures containing star energy in this cave before the vast amount of unrted information could flood her mind.
Without specifying the knowledge she wanted to get in time, the entire Sea of Knowledge would rush into her mind and consciousness!
Her weak and small soul, mind, and consciousness would get crushed into nothingness by the vast amount of information and knowledge contained in this Sea of Knowledge!
Chapter 862: Got Abandoned!
Chapter 862: Got Abandoned!
Even though the [Heaven Covering Ne]''s equipment skill, [Spirit Cover], could protect Tang Li Xue''s soul, mind, and consciousness from [Paranormal Intuition]''s fatal bacsh, but it could only protect her once after all.
In other words, she only had one chance to use [Paranormal Intuition], so she must not fail or get interrupted by the strange green vines!
Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy could onlyst for a few dozen seconds at best, so she quickly digested the rted information she obtained from the dazzling golden Sea of Knowledge!
The information about the precious treasures containing star energies hidden in the cave appeared in her mind piece by piece like a fast-forwarded movie.
Meanwhile, the strange green vines became even more manic as if they sensed the mysterious but terrifying aura emanating from Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy right at this moment!
The thousands of vine soldiers charged toward Tang Li Xue and her team even more desperately than before!
Tang Li Xue imbued her [Sharp Edge Power] buff onto her [Sword of Disaster] first before she unleashed her sword technique toward the vine soldiers that stabbed their vine spears at her!
[Heavenly Sword Techniques], Flooding Stabs!
The pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] in Tang Li Xue''s grasp split into countless sword images as she released countless rapid thrusts at once at those vine soldiers!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
The countless ck sword images instantly drowned more than a hundred vine soldiers in front of Tang Li Xue like a tsunami and sliced them all into tiny pieces!
Even Yaya seemed to lose her patience and unleashed her [Cyclone Storm] wantonly!
BWOOOOSSH~!
A huge pir of hurricane condensed from countless dancing sharp wind des sucked all of the nearby vine soldiers and shredded them into tiny pieces!
Tang Li Xue was worried that Yaya''s [Cyclone Storm] would identally suck the precious treasures containing star energy hidden in this cave, so she hastily warned Yaya: "Yaya, quickly disperse your [Cyclone Storm]! Your [Cyclone Storm] is surely effective in cleaning these vine soldiers, but I am really afraid that it will also identally ruin the precious treasures."
Yaya frowned in annoyance since she could not use her [Cyclone Storm] to quickly clean out all of these vine soldiers and strange green vines, but she still obediently dispersed her [Cyclone Storm] just like Tang Li Xue had instructed.
But right at this time, the countless strange green vines had already intertwined with each other again to form several enormous vine tentacles at once!
"Oh, damn..." Tang Li Xue murmured when she saw the towering enormous vine tentacles which were as tall as a pagoda!
Her perfect copy was in the most critical moment of using [Paranormal Intuition] right now, so she could not move, defend herself, or be interrupted at all!
It meant Tang Li Xue and her group had to prevent the several enormous vine tentacles from touching or interrupting the perfect copy at least until she finished her task!
"Get ready, everyone~! Stop them all at all costs!" Tang Li Xue shouted to her team in a solemn tone.
Lucia activated her [Slow Motion] buff, while Tang Li Xue used her [Wings of Freedom] buff.
Yaya also unleashed her [Wind Guardian Blessing] buff on herself and everyone to improve their overall speed.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
When the several enormous vine tentacles whipped down toward them like several falling mountains, Tang Li Xue, Yaya, Lucia, and Little Loki made their moves to stop them!
[Shockwave Impact] plus [Vacuum sh]~!
[Heaven''s Devour]~!
[Ster Banishment]~!
[de Feather Projectiles]~!
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Little Loki managed to swallow one of the enormous vine tentacles with its [Heaven''s Devour].
Tang Li Xue banished another enormous vine tentacle with her [Ster Banishment] until it momentarily turned into a ball of light.
Surprisingly, the enormous vine tentacle was severed after it was banished with [Ster Banishment].
Tang Li Xue squinted her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes as she got an inspiration.
''Wait a minute... Is it possible to sever my opponent''s head by only ''banishing'' their head with my [Ster Banishment] instead of their entire body?'' Tang Li Xue thought quietly while smiling in excitement.
Unfortunately, it was not possible for her current self to do it since she must have perfect control over [Ster Banishment] in order to do it while she just obtained [Ster Banishment] recently after the Foxes Hunting Festival.
Tang Li Xue shook her head in frustration while smiling in irony.
She already has so many things to practice, and now, she has to add practicing [Ster Banishment] into her future schedule.
But it was definitely not the right time to worry about that because she still had much more important things to worry about!
Lucia''s [de Feather Projectiles] and Yaya''s [Vacuum sh] actually failed to stop the other enormous vine tentacles, but at least they managed to slow them down!
Tang Li Xue unleashed her [Ster Banishment] to banish another enormous vine tentacle while Little Loki swallowed the other one with its [Heaven''s Devour].
"Damn it, we are not fast enough! Watch out, everyone!" Tang Li Xue shouted to warn the others while the army of vine soldiers had already approached so close to them!
But before Tang Li Xue and her team could handle those approaching vine soldiers, the rest of the enormous vine tentacles stomped down toward them mercilessly without caring about those vine soldiers!
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Hundreds of vine soldiers were also crushed by the enormous vine tentacles, but the strange green vines did not care about them at all.
As long as they could smash Tang Li Xue and her team to be their fertilizer, the strange green vines would not mind sacrificing their vine soldiers.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue and her group managed to avoid the enormous vine tentacles'' attack at thest moment, but...
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (1/3)]
Yes, they actually left Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy alone!
Luckily, Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy managed toplete her task right before she got stomped by the enormous vine tentacles!
After Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy digested the most crucial information she obtained from the dazzling Sea of Knowledge, she could not hold on anymore and passed out.
However, the equipment skill from [Heaven Covering Ne], [Spirit Cover], automatically activated to protect her soul, mind, and consciousness from the unbearable bacsh of the [Paranormal Intuition] divine ability and the terrifying pressure of the dazzling Sea of Knowledge!
Then Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy still fell unconscious after that.
If not for that, she might have already scolded the real Tang Li Xue for being heartless right now, since Tang Li Xue actually left her alone and avoided the enormous vine tentacles'' attack by herself.
Tang Li Xue blushed in embarrassment for abandoning her perfect copy with her team, but there was actually nothing they could do to block the extremely powerful attack from the enormous vine tentacles in that situation.
Tang Li Xue used her [Twin Moons] to un-summon her fainted perfect copy and let it rest for now.
"Good job~! Don''t worry, I will make it up for youter." Tang Li Xue happily muttered to appease her fainted perfect copy while staring in a certain direction with a confident smile on her stunningly beautiful face.
"I have to admit that you damn cunning vegetables are really a bunch of smart bast*rds~!"Tang Li Xue mockingly said as she stared at one of the vine soldiers who was standing quite far away from her.
ording to the information obtained from [Paranormal Intuition], the treasure containing star energy nted in this cave was called [Star Cluster Ginseng].
The main reason why Tang Li Xue and her group could not find it until now was because the cunning green vines actually disguised it as one of their vine soldiers!
Just as the vine soldiers and several enormous vine tentacles charged toward Tang Li Xue and her team again, Tang Li Xue quickly activated her [Wind Burst Step] several times in a row and appeared right beside her targeted vine soldier!
Before that vine soldier could react, Tang Li Xue swiftly brandished the pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] in her grasp.
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], sh Draw!
PUFF~!
Tang Li Xue''s pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] easily cut that vine soldier in two and instantly revealed a glowing ginseng hidden inside the vine soldier''s body!
The strange green vines quickly moved to grab the [Star Cluster Ginseng], but Tang Li Xue''s movement was much faster than theirs because she still had [Wings of Freedom] buff.
Tang Li Xue stretched her right hand and snatched the [Star Cluster Ginseng] before the strange green vines could touch it, then she threw the [Star Cluster Ginseng] into her space pouch in less than one breath.
Tang Li Xue sighed and felt very relieved after she finally obtained the treasure with star energy in this underwater pce.
But the strange green vines obviously did not think so... N?v(el)B\\jnn
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The entire cave suddenly shook violently!
"So, you damn vegetables became very angry because I snatched your treasure, huh... But so what?! I have already lost my patience with you since long ago, so you better be prepared~!" Tang Li Xue said leisurely to the green vines as deep blue me of Pride and golden sun me began to burst out from her slender body.
Previously, she did not dare to use any of her mes to burn these annoying vines because she was afraid that she would also burn the treasure containing the star energy.
But Tang Li Xue no longer had to hold back herself anymore after she got the [Star Cluster Ginseng]!
Chapter 863: Strange Green Vines True Form!
863 Chapter 863: Strange Green Vines'' True Form!
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
A brilliant golden light shone in the dark cave as a faint image of the sun formed behind Tang Li Xue! N?v(el)B\\jnn
The space around her was instantly lit in golden sun me mixed with a deep blue me of Pride!
BWOOOOSSH~!
The vine soldiers around her and the strange green vines scattered on the ground below her feet were instantly caught in me!
Despite that, they were not burned to ashes in an instant which means that they have extremely high resistance against me.
If Tang Li Xue''s me was only ordinary me, it might not be able to do anything to them at all.
Fortunately, both her me of Pride and Golden Sun me were far from ordinary.
The vine soldiers and the strange green vines only managed tost for a few dozen seconds at most before they were burned to nothingness by Tang Li Xue''s me of Pride and Golden Sun me.
But those stubborn vine soldiers and the strange green vines still insisted on attacking Tang Li Xue with the intention of dragging her down to die with them!
Tang Li Xue was not intimidated by them.
She calmly used her divine abilities to condense something with her dual mes!
[Sun Dragon ws]~!
[Sun Dragon Fangs]~!
Then she also solidified a pair of me swords with her [Energy Maniption] plus the Profound Law of Heat and controlled a pair of [Sun Dragon ws] to hold those pair of me swords!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
A pair of [Sun Dragon ws] began to dance in mid-air with a pair of me swords in their grasp as they cut and burned all of the approaching vine soldiers and the strange green vines!
[Sun Dragon Fangs] in the form of a me dragon''s head did not remain idle. It also flew around while biting and spurting mes at those vine soldiers and the strange green vines!
After using Sun Domain Prototype, dual mes, and me elemental divine abilities, Tang Li Xue''s current speed in cleaning up those vine soldiers and the strange green vines was many times fasterpared to before!
"Yaya, you can go all out now~! Use your [Cyclone Storm] to eliminate all of them as soon as possible, so we can get out from here quickly!" Tang Li Xue shouted to Yaya.
Previously, Tang Li Xue stopped Yaya from using her [Cyclone Storm], because she was afraid that it would identally destroy the treasure with star energy, but she did not need to worry about that anymore right now because she had already pocketed the [Star Cluster Ginseng] into her space pouch.
Yaya nodded back at Tang Li Xue before she unleashed her [Cyclone Storm] without any hesitation!
BWOOOOSH~!
A huge pir of hurricane instantly condensed from countless dancing sharp wind des and sucked all of the nearby vine soldiers, then shredded all of them into tiny pieces in the blink of an eye!
The [Cyclone Storm] swiftly moved around the cave under Yaya''s control!
Just like a vacuum cleaner cleaning the dust, Yaya''s [Cyclone Storm] was doing the same as it sucked all vine soldiers and strange green vines around it cleanly!
At this rate, Tang Li Xue and Yaya would surely be able to purge all vine soldiers and strange green vines in less than ten minutes or so they thought...
But somethingpletely unexpected to them suddenly happened!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The entire cave shook greatly all of a sudden until Tang Li Xue and her team almost could not stand steadily!
"Damn it~! Now what else?! Don''t tell me there are still even more powerful enemies hidden in this cave, and I identally awaken them because I use my mes?!" Tang Li Xueined in a frustrated tone.
Lucia sensed a very dangerous auraing from the underground of the cave, so she hastily pped her wings as she shed around the cave with extremely fast speed while grabbing at Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki, then threw them into her back!
But right before Lucia could reach the cave''s entrance and bring Tang Li Xue and the others out of the cave...
BOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
A giant vine pir emerged from the ground and blocked the cave''s entrance, so Lucia, Tang Li Xue, and the others could not escape the cave!
Lucia had not given up just like that...
With her over twenty meters [Gigantification] body, Lucia unleashed her [de Feather sh] to try to cut down the giant vine pir!
PUFF~!
However, Lucia only managed to leave a shallow twenty-meter-long cut on the giant vine pir, then the giant vine pir recovered back in only a few moments until the trace of being cut could no longer be seen.
"Let''s just chop down this giant vine together quickly!" Tang Li Xue urged in an anxious tone.
Yaya hastilyunched her [Vacuum sh], while Little Loki used its [Scythe w Qi].
Tang Li Xue applied her [Sharp Edge Power] along with her dual mes and Profound Law of Heat onto her pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster].
The pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] was instantly shrouded in a deep blue me of Pride and Golden Sun me!
[Paragon Sword Technique], Perpetual sh!
The sharp sword Qi and sword intent burst out of the [Sword of Disaster] in Tang Li Xue''s grasp!
The extremely hot dual mes mixed with sharp sword energy plus [Sharp Edge Power] buff pushed the lethality of Tang Li Xue''s sword to a frightening level!
CLAAAAAANG~!
Tang Li Xue''s [Perpetual sh] managed to cut the giant vine pir easily like a tofu!
"Sess~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in delight.
But when Tang Li Xue and her team tried to get out of the cave through the cave''s entrance, the cave''s entrance was actually still blocked from the outside!
It meant there was another giant vine pir that blocked the cave''s entrance outside!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
BOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Before Tang Li Xue could use another [Perpetual sh] to chop down the other giant vine pir, something extremely huge had already broken out from the ground!
It was actually a gigantic ck flower that emitted an unpleasant smell!
Just as Tang Li Xue and her team stared at the gigantic ck flower in astonishment, a grotesque giant bloody eye suddenly opened at the center of that gigantic ck flower!
Then the space under the gigantic ck flower''s grotesque bloody eye also split revealing a huge bloody mouth filled with countless sharp teeth!
"GRRAAAAAARR~!"
The gigantic ck flower let out an earth-shattering angry roar toward Tang Li Xue and her group!
"Oh, shit... This one may look very ugly, but it is definitely scarily strong. You guys better be really careful!" Tang Li Xue nervously swallowed her saliva before she warned Lucia, Little Loki, and Yaya.
Tang Li Xue hastily canceled her [Transfiguration] skill and transformed back from her human form to her fox form, so she could use her full power to fight against the gigantic ck flower.
She also secretly activated her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to peek at the gigantic ck flower''s description.
--------------------------------------
[Nether Rafflesia Flower (Mutated)]
[Description: Nether Rafflesia Flower was also known as the Corpse Eating Flower. If it received enough nutrients, it could grow bigger than an ind, and its vines could cover the entire continent.
Unfortunately, this Nether Rafflesia Flower could not get enough nutrients to support its growth in this cave, so its growth rate became very limited.
It could live this long by continuously absorbing the heavy death aura contaminating this entire secret space until it finally mutated into its current grotesque form.]
[HP: 9,750,000/9,750,000]
--------------------------------------
"Holy cow, this description is honestly even more scarier than the previous [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]. Luckily, it cannot obtain enough nutrients to grow inside this cave. If not for that, it should have already grown into an undefeatable monstrous flower bigger than an ind after tens of thousands of years." Tang Li Xue eximed in fright.
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched violently when she saw [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s current HP which was over 9 million. It has even almost reached 10 million!
Before Tang Li Xue could think of a way to defeat the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] or quickly escape from this cave, the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] alreadyunched its attack on Tang Li Xue and her group!
The [Nether Rafflesia Flower] opened its huge bloody mouth and suddenly sprayed green liquid at Tang Li Xue and her group!
SPLOOOOOSH~!
But Lucia flew away swiftly carrying Tang Li Xue and the others on her back to dodge the green liquid sprayed by the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]!
CCRRRRSSSS~!
The green liquid was actually extremely corrosive that it could instantly melt everything it touched. It even created several deep holes in the ground.
Tang Li Xue shuddered in fright when she turned her head around and saw the green liquid melt the ground in an instant.
Just as Tang Li Xue felt relieved because Lucia managed to bring all of them to avoid being sprayed with the green liquid, Tang Li Xue suddenly felt very dizzy and weak.
"Damn it~! This damn flower actually secrete poisonous gas! No wonder it smells so stinky!" Tang Li Xue concluded in anger.
Thankfully, both her [Imperial Moon Fox] and [Pure Sun Dragon] immediately worked to nullify it!
Her [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline was working quickly to burn all of the poisonous gas that invaded her body into nothingness, while her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodlinepletely nullified all of the negative effects from the poisonous gas.
The dizziness and weakness she felt immediately disappeared, but Tang Li Xue still felt worried about her team.
Tang Li Xue seems to get into a bigger trouble now. Could she defeat or escape from the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]? We will see it in the next chapter~! (>w<)
godadi
Chapter 864: A Glimmer Of Hope!
Chapter 864: A Glimmer Of Hope!
However, Tang Li Xue''s worry seemed to bepletely unnecessary because both Lucia and Little Loki have much more powerful bloodlinespared to her, so the poisonous gas was alsopletely ineffective against them.
The poisonous gas probably only worked on Yaya, but Yaya was the darling of the Wind God, so the poisonous gas simply could not reach her as if there was a wind barrier that protected her from any harmful gas.
But Tang Li Xue was still worried that Yaya would identally inhale the poisonous gas and feel ufortable, so she instructed Yaya: "Yaya, let''s enter Divine Possession mode, so we can defeat this stinky flower quickly! "
Yaya nodded to Tang Li Xue with a serious expression as she turned into a green sh of green light and merged into Tang Li Xue''s furry body that was already in the fox form.
*Ding!
[You have merged with Yaya and entered Divine Possession mode!]
Beautiful crystal-clear fairy wings grew on Tang Li Xue''s back in that instant.
A silver tiara decorated with many glittering green gems appeared on the top of her furry head.
Then Tang Li Xue patted Lucia''s back while saying to Lucia and Little Loki in a solemn tone: "Let''s split up and try to attack that stinky flower from three different sides. Remember to be really careful! Never let that flower''s corrosive liquid touch you!"
Tang Li Xue pped the crystal-clear fairy wings on her back and flew away from Lucia''s back, while Little Loki used its [Instant Teleportation] to instantly appear behind the [Nether Rafflesia Flower].
Tang Li Xue swiftly went to the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s left side while Lucia flew to the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s right side.
Since [Nether Rafflesia Flower] could spray corrosive liquid or even try to swallow them in one gulp, it should be best to never fight head-on face-to-face against it.
Of course, the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] would never let Tang Li Xue and her group do whatever they wanted!
The [Nether Rafflesia Flower] no longer created any vine soldiers with its vines.
All of its countless green vines that were spread around the entire cave began to intertwine together and form dozens of enormous vine tentacles!
But different from the previous enormous vine tentacles, the current enormous vine tentacles looked much more distorted and hideous than before!
"What the heck is it doing?! Those ugly giant vine tentacles look like bad news for us! Watch out, be careful, everyone!" Tang Li Xue shouted to warn Little Loki and Lucia again.
Dozens of hideous giant vine tentacles began to whip around swiftly at Tang Li Xue and her group!
Tang Li Xue easily saw through the movement of all the hideous giant vine tentacles and predicted it ahead of time with [Wind God''s Eyes].
With Yaya''s [Extreme Speed] and [Wind Guardian Blessing] along with her own [Super Speed], Tang Li Xue''s current speed was simply unmatchable.
or so she thought...
But when Tang Li Xue maneuvered to the right and left very swiftly to easily avoid the hideous giant vine tentacles'' attacks until she left tens of afterimages in mid-air, something out of her expectations suddenly happened!
POP~! POP~! POP~! POP~! POP~!
More than fifty strange vines suddenly separated from the giant vine tentacles and shot toward Tang Li Xue when she just dodged past the hideous giant vine tentacles'' attacks!
Tang Li Xue did not have enough time to react as she got tied up by those strange vines!
CCRRRRSSS~!
"Ouch, ouch, pain~! Damn it! These ugly vines and tentacles are also very corrosive!" Tang Li Xue cried out in pain.
Then Tang Li Xue immediately used her dual mes, the deep blue me of Pride and Golden Sun me, to burn all of the corrosive hideous vines that tied her up!
Surprisingly, these corrosive hideous vines were even more resistant to mepared to the previous strange green vines!
This fact proved that Tang Li Xue''s guess about the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] not only having high intelligence but also extremely high adaptability was correct!
It adapted to her dual mes so quickly which made its resistance to me be higher and higher as time passed!
At this rate, even Tang Li Xue''s deep blue me of Pride and Golden Sun me might no longer be able to burn the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s vines anymoreter!
Of course, it would definitely take a long time for the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] to reachplete immunity to Tang Li Xue''s me even with its extremely high adaptability, but it was already enough to make Tang Li Xue shuddered in horror at that fact!
She started to falter on whether she had to fight against the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] until she defeated it, or she should just focus on escaping from this ce instead.
When Tang Li Xue was still hesitating about her choices, Little Loki and Lucia had already begun tounch their attack fearlessly at the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]!
Little Loki summoned out its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones once again, and they immediately unleashed [Scythe w Qi] at the same time to cut the hideous giant vine tentacles that were whipping toward them!
Meanwhile, Lucia was dancing gracefully in mid-air as she dodged all of the hideous giant vine tentacles'' attacks at breakneck speed while slicing them rapidly with her sharp wings.
[de Feather sh] x30~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
There was green liquid sprayed out when Lucia cut corrosive hideous vines, and it sshed onto Lucia''s body!
Fortunately, Lucia''s body was wrapped in silver armor from [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl] which seemed to be immune to any corrosive substance, so the green liquid could not even corrode Lucia''s silver armor.
When Tang Li Xue saw that, she suddenly guessed that the key to defeating this [Nether Rafflesia Flower] might be the three treasures they managed to previously obtain from the armory!
After seeing a glimmer of hope, Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs as she decided to give up escaping and focused on defeating the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] instead.
The main reason for her decision was because the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] looked so angry at them, and it would likely never stop hunting them all unless it killed everyst one of them and made them into its fertilizer.
After all of the corrosive hideous vines that bind her body finally got burned by her mes into ashes, Tang Li Xue quickly took out Yaya''s [Ocean God Trident] from her space pouch.
Previously, Tang Li Xue helped Yaya to store the [Ocean God Trident] in her space pouch since Yaya did not want to use it against those strange green vines.
Anyway, it was not like Yaya could stab those strange green vines to death with her [Ocean God Trident], right?
But right now, Tang Li Xue suddenly had a hunch that she needed to use this [Ocean God Trident] in order to defeat that terrifying [Nether Rafflesia Flower].
The [Nether Rafflesia Flower] did not give Tang Li Xue much time to think as itunched another wave of attack toward her with its hideous giant vine tentacles!
''Little Loki, I have an important task for you to do...'' Tang Li Xue secretly sent her instruction to Little Loki through their mind connection while dodging the attacks from hideous giant vine tentacles with her [Wind Burst Step].
With [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s high intelligence, it could definitely guess Tang Li Xue''s n and find a way to counter her n if it could hear Tang Li Xue''smand for Little Loki.
That was the reason why Tang Li Xue decided to secretly send her instructions to Little Loki through their mind connection.
Under Tang Li Xue''s instruction, Little Loki along with its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones suddenly turned invisible.
Even the hideous giant vine tentacles that were attacking Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones seemed topletely lose their tracks.
Normally, Little Loki should only be able to turn invisible after it devoured Tang Li Xue''s [Stealth Talisman +3], but the stealth level from the basic [Stealth Talisman] that Tang Li Xue made was clearly not that good.
What Little Loki currently used was not the basic stealth it got from Tang Li Xue''s [Stealth Talisman +3], but the [Void Lurking] ability it got after devouring the [Void Lurking Boots] which was one of the three treasures they previously obtained from the armory!
After Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] Clones managed to hide themselves from [Nether Rafflesia Flower] and its vines, they began to carry out the task Tang Li Xue had given to them.
Yes, Tang Li Xue instructed Little Loki to covertly look for the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s weak point!
It should be a perfect task for Little Loki since it could use its nine [Phantom Splitter] Clones to slowly probe the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s weak point.
Not to mention, Little Loki could also use its [Instant Teleportation] to immediately get away further from the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] anytime it wants.
Right at this time, the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] had already realized that it could no longer find even Little Loki''s trace while Lucia was a tough nut to crack with her silver armor, so it only left with only one target. N?v(el)B\\jnn
The [Nether Rafflesia Flower] turned around, and its grotesque bloody eye red at Tang Li Xue!
"Oh, shit... Err, hello there~! I am actually a peace-loving fox, so can we please sit down and talk peacefully first?" Tang Li Xue talked while smiling at the [Nether Rafflesia Flower].
Of course, her real intention was only to stall for as long as possible until Little Loki could find the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s weak point.
If not, they would only y in the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s palm... or vines until they werepletely exhausted to death.
Chapter 865: Deception Within Deception!
Chapter 865: Deception Within Deception!
The [Nether Rafflesia Flower] did not bother to pay any attention to Tang Li Xue''s meaningless conversation to buy more time as it immediately sprayed the corrosive green liquid from its huge bloody mouth at Tang Li Xue!
"This damn stinky flower~!" Tang Li Xue angrily scolded as she hastily used [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] plus [Breezing Step] to dodge the corrosive liquid spray.
But the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] seemed to change its way of spraying its corrosive liquid right now!
The green corrosive liquid was sprayed in a scattered way as if the tip of the water hose was pinched, and it sprinkled around like heavy rain!
No matter how great or high Tang Li Xue''s speed was, it was clearly impossible for her to dodge the green corrosive liquid that was sprinkling like torrential rain!
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only try to block the corrosive liquid instead.
[Hurricane Barrier]~!
[Reflective Barrier]~!
Transparent Barrier created with [Energy Maniption]~!
Threeyers of defense were instantly deployed by Tang Li Xue in order to block the corrosive rain!
CCRRRSSSSSS~!
Tang Li Xue thought that her threeyers of defense should be more than enough to resist the corrosive rain, but unfortunately, she was wrong this time.
Her [Hurricane Barrier] was instantly dispersed while her [Reflective Barrier] and the transparent Barrier created with [Energy Maniption] could onlyst for a moment before they melted!
Then the corrosive rain dripped onto Tang Li Xue''s silvery white furs until it made a loud sizzling sound!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs to withstand the burning pain, but at this rate, it might not take long for her entire body to be washed by the corrosive rain!
At this critical moment, Lucia suddenly appeared right beside Tang Li Xue with her breakneck flight speed and used her own body to cover Tang Li Xue from the corrosive rain!
However, Lucia''s entire body was wrapped in anti-corrosive silver armor from the [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl], so the corrosive rain could not do anything to her at all.
"Nice, Lucia~! Thank you so much for your help!" Tang Li Xue happily thanked Lucia for her timely help.
With her twenty-meter tall erged body after using [Gigantification], Lucia could perfectly shelter Tang Li Xue from being sshed by the corrosive liquid from the corrosive rain.
The [Nether Rafflesia Flower] felt very annoyed by Lucia''s timely assist, so it began to use its dozens of hideous giant vine tentacles to attack both Lucia and Tang Li Xue at once!
Dozens of hideous giant vine tentacles whipped toward Lucia and Tang Li Xue like a falling mountain, and each of them was even bigger than a truck!
"KWEAAAK~! (Get up quickly~!)" Lucia anxiously chirped to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue instantly understood what Lucia was trying to say, and she quickly hugged one of Lucia''s legs tightly!
Then Lucia pped her wings and flew very swiftly to avoid the giant vine tentacles''s attacks!
BOOOOM~! BOOOOM~! BOOOOM~! BOOOOM~!
The giant vine tentacles flogged crazily toward Lucia as if they were ying a Whack-a-Mole game!
The entire cave kept shaking violently, and many deep cracks began to spread on the cave''s ground!
Even with Lucia''s extremely fast flying speed, she looked overwhelmed by the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s crazy attacks!
If Lucia still has [Slow Motion] buff, it should be a piece of cake for her to dodge all of [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s attacks.
But unfortunately, Lucia''s [Slow Motion] buff duration had been long run out and entered a one-hour cooldown.
.....
When Tang Li Xue and Lucia were trying their best to resist the [Nether Rafflesia Flower], Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones did not remain idle at all.
They transformed back from their Battle Form into their Kitten Form and began to investigate the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s weakness.
How did they do it?
Of course, it was by sneaking into the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s mouth and exploring its inside!
Even though it would be really dangerous, but Little Loki could get out from there at any time with its [Instant Teleportation].
Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones skillfully ran on the vine wall inside [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s body while avoiding being sshed by any green corrosive liquid.
[Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s size was truly enormous. Not even Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and others could estimate how big the rest of [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s body which was still buried under the cave''s ground.
It might take quite a long time for Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones to explore inside of [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s body, so they decided to split up and explore separately to save time.
The inside of [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s body was veryplicated like a huge maze.
There was corrosive green liquid everywhere as if it was the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s blood.
If Little Loki or its [Phantom Splitter] clones were not careful and identally slipped down, then fell into the river-like corrosive green liquid, their entire bodies might get dissolved by it in only less than one breath.
Fortunately, so many thorns were sticking out from the vine wall, so Little Loki or its [Phantom Splitter] clones could just jump from one thorn to another, and they did not need to step or walk on the ce soaked by the green corrosive liquid.
But Little Loki suddenly heard a loud gurgling sound like the sound of the water stream.
Little Loki immediately realized that the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] probably wanted to spray out its green corrosive liquid from its mouth like before, so the green corrosive liquid should be flooding toward here really soon!
Without any hesitation, Little Loki instantly used its [Instant Teleportation] to get away from its current location!
Just when Little Loki''s tiny ck furry figure disappeared, arge amount of green corrosive liquid flowed into that ce before it sprayed out from the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s mouth.
After hastily using [Instant Teleportation] to get out of the previous dangerous situation, Little Loki actually got strayed to a strange ce instead.
Little Loki looked around in confusion and found a big throbbing mass of flesh.
There were also many vines connected to that big throbbing mass of flesh.
Little Loki''s eyes immediately shone when it saw the mass of flesh.
''Don''t tell me that this is the big flower''s heart?'' Little Loki guessed excitedly when it thought that it finally found the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s weak point.
But Little Loki suddenly turned skeptical as it thought: ''Wait a minute... Do nts have a heart? No way, right?''
Then Little Loki recalled that Tang Li Xue said this flower was really cunning and smart, so it had to be careful.
Just in case, Little Loki did not immediately use its [Heaven''s Devour] to swallow the big throbbing mass of flesh and waited patiently for its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones to explore the other area of [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s inside.
After a few minutes or so, some of Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitter] clones actually also found the other big throbbing masses of flesh.
Three other more to be exact!
Little Loki frowned in displeasure as it realized that it almost got tricked by the [Nether Rafflesia Flower].
However, Little Loki had to admit that this [Nether Rafflesia Flower] was truly extremely tricky to deal with.
Little Loki shook its tiny furry head in great disappointment and turned around to continue to explore the other area inside the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s body.
Just as Little Loki almost walked away from the big throbbing mass of flesh, it halted its step all of a sudden.
''Not right~!'' Little Loki thought as it turned around again, then stared at the big throbbing mass of flesh in astonishment.
Little Loki closed its eyes, and its nose moved slightly when it sniffed at something.
The smell inside this [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s body was really unpleasant like the rotten meat that had already decayed for tens of thousands of years.
Because of that, Little Loki''s sense of smell was almost dulled by it.
But despite that, Little Loki could actually still faintly sniff the smell of treasure from the big throbbing mass of flesh!
Little Loki quickly urged its other [Phantom Splitter] clones to try to sniff the other big throbbing masses of flesh, but they could not find the smell of treasure from any of them!
In other words, only the big throbbing mass of flesh in front of the real Little Loki that has the smell of treasure!
Little Loki''s eyes shone brightly once again.
''What a cunning nt?! Even I almost got tricked twice!'' Little Loki angrily thought.
Deception within deception...
What the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] had done was like hiding a precious tree inside the forest.
But since there was no forest here, the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] deliberately created a lot of big throbbing mass of flesh inside its body to cover its true weak point.
Little Loki used its [Instant Teleportation] and suddenly appeared near the throbbing mass of flesh, then it opened its tiny mouth widely.
[Heaven''s Devour]~!
BWOOOOOSSH~!
Despite its size being many times bigger than Little Loki''s tiny furry body, the huge throbbing mass of flesh was still sucked into LIttle Loki''s mouth in one gulp!
However, the huge throbbing mass of flesh was actually not the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] real weak point like Little Loki had guessed.
After Little Loki swallowed the entire throbbing mass of flesh, there was a hexagonal green crystal floating on the mass of flesh''s previous ce!
The hexagonal green crystal was actually hidden inside the throbbing mass of flesh all this time! n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Just when Little Loki wanted to use its [Heaven''s Devour] to swallow the hexagonal green crystal too, the entire ce suddenly shook greatly, and arge amount of corrosive green liquid was pouring out like a torrential flood!
Chapter 866: Final Strike!
866 Chapter 866: Final Strike!
Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour] could only swallow everything in front of it, while the corrosive green liquid was flooding toward it from all directions!
Without any other choice, Little Loki could only decide to give up temporarily on devouring the hexagonal green crystal and use its [Instant Teleportation] to get out from there before it gotpletely submerged in the corrosive green liquid.
But Little Loki also quickly sent the information about the hexagonal green crystal and its exact location to Tang Li Xue through their mind connection.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was currently still hugging Lucia''s feet tightly like a ko at this moment.
The [Nether Rafflesia Flower] kept sprinkling its corrosive liquid like rain, so Tang Li Xue could only rely on Lucia''s silver armor made from [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl] to cover her from the corrosive rain.
Lucia was flying around at breakneck speed to dodge the dozens of giant vine tentacles that were chasing and flogging crazily at her.
Tang Li Xue''s worried expression suddenly changed to shock and disbelief as she muttered: "Little Loki? What?! You already find that damn stinky flower''s weak point?! Are you really sure about it?"
Little Loki instantly felt offended by Tang Li Xue''s doubt. It puffed its cheek cutely and pouted unhappily.
Tang Li Xue immediately tried to exin herself tofort Little Loki: "No, no, no... It''s not that I do not believe in you, Little Loki... But you find it too fast!"
"Good job, Little Loki~! Now, you can just leave it to me!" Tang Li Xue said to Little Loki in a reassuring tone while smiling confidently.
Then Tang Li Xue stared at the golden [Ocean God Trident] that she was holding with her tails and muttered to it: "Looks like it is your turn now~! I hope you will not disappoint meter."
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath before she gave her next instruction to Lucia: "Lucia, can you please bring me closer to the damn stinky flower''s back?"
"Keaaakk~! (No problem~!)" Lucia replied to Tang Li Xue without any hesitation.
Lucia suddenly took a sharp nosedive as if she wanted to fall into the ground!
The [Nether Rafflesia Flower] thought that it was its chance to finish off both Lucia and Tang Li Xue in one move, so it hastily controlled many of its giant vine tentacles to stomp the two of them!
Who knew that it was only Lucia''s trick?!
When the giant vine tentacles almost hammered them, Lucia suddenly took a sharp turn to barely dodge those giant vine tentacles!
BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~!
The giant vine tentacles struck the ground heavily until the ground was filled with deep craters and cracks, but Lucia agilely shrunk her body size to five meters tall and slipped into the small space between the giant vine tentacles!
BWOOOOSSH~!
When Lucia''s body size shrunk, her strength and toughness would decrease, but her speed would increase dramatically!
Lucia was flying at a speed more than 50% faster than before, and it only took less than a breath for her to fly from the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s right side and get close to its back.
Tang Li Xue quickly unleashed one of her strongest skills toward [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s back!
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
[Cyclone Storm] plus me of Pride and Golden Sun me~!
BWOOOOOSSSH~!
Tang Li Xue unleashed a huge pir of me hurricane condensed from countless wind desbined with extremely high-temperature dual mes!
The huge pir of a burning hurricane moved very rapidly forward and drilled deep into the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s back!
PUUUFFF~!
Arge amount of green corrosive liquid poured out from the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s back, but most of it immediately evaporated from the extremely high temperature of the burning hurricane!
"ROOOOOAAAAAAR~!" The [Nether Rafflesia Flower] roared out loud, not because it felt any pain, but because it was greatly raged by Tang Li Xue''s attack!
The [Nether Rafflesia Flower] hastily controlled its dozens of giant vine tentacles to attack Lucia at Tang Li Xue at once from all directions!
Lucia skillfully maneuvered gracefully in mid-air to dodge those giant vine tentacles.
From spinning, turning, diving, and flying in a zigzag pattern, Lucia executed all of them perfectly at breakneck speed that those dozens of giant vine tentacles could not touch even the tip of her feathers.
Tang Li Xue who was already sitting stably on Lucia''s back slowly raised the golden [Ocean God Trident] that was wrapped with her tails while muttering in a cold tone: "Take this if you can, you stinky damn flower~!"
Then Tang Li Xue created arge bow with her [Energy Maniption] and used the golden [Ocean God Trident] as the arrow!
Thisrge bow was not something Tang Li Xue randomly created, but she incorporated the basic array into it!
[Energy Channeling] rune, [Speed Increasing] rune, and [Power Increasing] rune... Three runes formed one basic array engraved on therge bow''s surface!
Not only that, Tang Li Xue also added a few more enhancements to the golden [Ocean God Trident] to increase its power further!
Profound Law of Heat~!
Dual mes, me of Pride and Golden Sun me~!
[Sharp Edge Power] buff~!
Yaya''s Wind Power~!
[Shockwave Impact]~!
[Critical Strikers]''s weapon skill, [Final Strike]~!
After the power gathered on the golden [Ocean God Trident] had reached truly a terrifying level, Tang Li Xue finally unleashed therge bow''s string!
BWOOOOOSSSH~!
The golden [Ocean God Trident] shot off toward the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] ''s gaping back that had already been torn open by the previous me hurricane!
After the golden [Ocean God Trident] entered the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s gaping back, there were still many thick vine walls and corrosive liquid everywhere inside the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s body, but the [Ocean God Trident] forcefully prated past them all! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
In less than a few milliseconds, the golden [Ocean God Trident] reached the hexagonal green crystal located deep inside the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s body!
BAAAAANG~!
There was actually some invisible barrier protecting the hexagonal green crystal, but it was no different than a piece of paper in front of the golden [Ocean God Trident]!
Surprisingly, the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] could control the hexagonal green crystal at thest moment to shift a few centimeters to dodge the golden [Ocean God Trident]!
But the golden [Ocean God Trident] suddenly changed its flight trajectory as if it was deliberately chasing after a hexagonal green crystal!
It seemed one of the [Ocean God Trident]''s effects was unexpectedly triggered at thest moment!
[Effect 2: Absolute Defense Pration: Any defense equal to or below 500% of the user''s total strength could be obliterated, and any Damage Reduction would be ignored.]
[Effect 3: Target Locking and tracking: It can automatically lock and track its target, making it almost impossible to dodge.]
Tang Li Xue faced so many difficulties in fighting against the burly purple merman that wielded the [Ocean God Trident] before because of these two effects, but they actually helped Tang Li Xue instead at this crucial moment!
CLANG~!
The [Ocean God Trident] pierced the hexagonal green crystal, but it did not stop until there!
The [Ocean God Trident] kept flying straight with the pierced hexagonal green crystal on its tip, and it prated so many vine walls again until it broke out from the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s body!
The [Ocean God Trident] only stopped after it stabbed deeply into the cave''s wall!
"GROOOOOWWLLLL~!" The [Nether Rafflesia Flower] growled with an ear-shattering voice.
Tang Li Xue could sense fear and unwillingness in its voice this time, but she did not n to lower her guard just yet.
Tang Li Xue saw that many of the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s green vines slowly wilted, and their color turned gray!
It might not take long for the entire [Nether Rafflesia Flower] topletely wilt and die!
Just like Tang Li Xue had guessed, the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] immediately did something iprehensible when it realized that it would soon wilt and die!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The [Nether Rafflesia Flower] suddenly moved its entire body violently until the entire cave shook greatly!
"This damn crazy guy~! It seems it wants to make this entire cave copse, so it can drag us to die along with it!" Tang Li Xue said in a dire tone as she could instantly guess the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s intention in one nce.
"Little Loki, quickly get out of there and get back here~!" Tang Li Xue hastily called Little Loki in an anxious tone through their mind connection.
The countless deep cracks began to appear on the ground and spread onto the cave''s wall and ceiling!
Right at this time, Little Loki had already used its [Instant Teleportation] rapidly to get out from inside of the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s body.
It only took a few moments for Little Loki to appear on Lucia''s back and rejoin back with Tang Li Xue again.
Just when Lucia wanted to bring Tang Li Xue and Little Loki out of this almost copsed cave, Tang Li Xue quickly patted her back while saying in an agitated voice: "Wait a second, let me take back the golden trident first!"
But right at this moment, so many huge chunks of boulders had already fallen down from the cave''s wall and ceiling!
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
If not for Lucia''s fast flight speed and reflex, those huge boulders might have already fallen onto them!
Lucia was flying swiftly toward the golden [Ocean God Trident] which was still stabbed deeply into the cave''s wall while agilely dodging the falling boulders!
Tang Li Xue even added [Wind Guardian Blessing] to increase Lucia''s speed further!
It only took a few breaths of time for Lucia to bring Tang Li Xue toward the golden [Ocean God Trident].
But when Tang Li Xue jumped from Lucia''s back to pull the [Ocean God Trident] from the cave''s wall, more than fifty strange green vines suddenly drilled out from the cave''s wall!
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
They had already won, but the situation only got more dangerous instead for them! (>w<) Could Tang Li Xue and her group get out safely from there? We will see it in the next chapter, so don''t miss it~!
godadi
Creator''s Thought
Chapter 867: Collapsed Cave!
867 Chapter 867: Copsed Cave!
It was already toote for Tang Li Xue to dodge the fifty strange green vines!
Those fifty strange green vines quickly wrapped around Tang Li Xue''s body like a dumpling before she could do anything.
"These damn annoying vines are still so persistent! Just die already!" Tang Li Xue cursed angrily as she ignited her entire body with her dual mes, deep blue me of Pride and Golden Sun me!
But Tang Li Xue immediately realized the current strange green vines seemed to be much harder to burnpared to before!
It looked like the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] was already getting used to Tang Li Xue''s dual mes and developed extremely high resistance to me with its high adaptability!
Tang Li Xue felt really terrified by the [Nether Rafflesia Flower]''s adaptability, but she immediately calmed down and sighed in relief when she thought that the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] would wilt and die really soon.
Right at this time, Lucia and Little Loki had already arrived at Tang Li Xue''s left and right sides!
[de Feather sh]~!
[Scythe w Qi]~!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Lucia and Little Loki easily cut the burning green vines that were still persistently binding Tang Li Xue''s body with their skills!
Then Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs as she quickly pulled the golden [Ocean God Trident] which was still stabbed deeply into the cave''s wall with all of her strength!
While Lucia also helped Tang Li Xue by pulling the back of Tang Li Xue''s furry neck with her beak!
BAAAAANG~!
After Tang Li Xue managed to pull out the golden [Ocean God Trident] from the cave''s wall, Lucia immediately threw Tang Li Xue who was holding the [Ocean God Trident] onto her back before she flew toward the cave''s entrance with her full speed!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The countless deep cracks were already spread everywhere!
The cave''s ground was broken to pieces and fell into a deep abyss!
The cave''s wall and ceiling copsed and fell apart!
Despite that, the [Nether Rafflesia Flower] still refused to give up as it stretched all of its withered giant vine tentacles to block the cave''s entrance in order to prevent Tang Li Xue and her group from getting out of the copsed cave!
At this critical moment, everything around Tang Li Xue and her group seemed to slow down a lot!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she calmly created anotherrge bow with her [Energy Maniption]!
Profound Law of Heat~!
Dual mes, me of Pride and Golden Sun me~!
[Sharp Edge Power] buff~!
Yaya''s Wind Power~!
[Shockwave Impact]~!
Five kinds of power gathered on the golden [Ocean God Trident]!
But unlike before, her [Critical Strikers]''s weapon skill, [Final Strike], had already entered a one-hour cooldown, so she could not use it yet.
Nheless, the destruction and pration power of the current golden [Ocean God Trident] had reached an astonishing level!
It should be more than enough to open a way out for them! N?v(el)B\\jnn
"Go~!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she finally unleashed therge bow''s string!
BWOOOOOSSSH~!
The golden [Ocean God Trident] sped off toward the cave''s entrance which was blocked by the several withered giant vine tentacles!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
The golden [Ocean God Trident] pierced severalyers of the withered giant vine tentacles easily, leaving a two-meter diameter hole in them!
Lucia hastily used [Gigantification] to shrink her body size, so she could fly through the hole created by the golden [Ocean God Trident]!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The entire cave finallypletely copsed and buried everything inside it!
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue''s long eyshes trembled slightly as she slowly opened her charming topaz blue eyes.
Then she suddenly jumped and stood up in panic while checking her surroundings.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she saw all of her tails and limbs were stillplete while thepletely exhausted Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia were sleeping tightly right beside her.
"So I am still alive... and everyone is also still alive... That is really good." Tang Li Xue muttered in a relieved tone as she sat weakly on the ground while staring at thepletely copsed cave right in front of her.
After calming down her turbulent mood, Tang Li Xue used her [Transfiguration] to transform from her fox form to her human form.
Then she condensed a set of white clothes with her [Energy Maniption] to cover her fair and smooth slender body.
After carefully checking the condition of Little Loki and Lucia to make sure they were all right without waking them up, Tang Li Xue walked toward the [Ocean God Trident] that stabbed deep into the ground only revealing the trident''s heel.
When Tang Li Xue pulled out the [Ocean God Trident] from the ground, she realized that there was something stuck on the [Ocean God Trident]''s tip.
It was actually a hexagonal green crystal!
"What the heck is this thing?" Tang Li Xue frowned and muttered as she pulled out the hexagonal green crystal from the [Ocean God Trident]''s tip.
Tang Li Xue suspiciously used her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to check the hexagonal green crystal.
-------------------------------------------------
[Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core]
[Description: The crystal core of a mutated Nether Rafflesia Flower. Despite still being in the growth period andcking nutrients, its crystal core contains an immense amount of vitality energy.]
[Effect 1: The immense amount of vitality energy can be converted to EXP to increase level or cultivation if you consume it directly.]
[Effect 2: It can be used as an alchemy material to greatly improve the pill''s efficacy and the sess rate of making any pill.]
[Effect 3: It can be used to speed up the growth of any nt and add tens of thousands of years of maturity to any nt in an instant.]
-------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue grasped in astonishment before sheughed in excitement while eximing: "Great stuff~! To think I can get something like this for free... As I expect, I am really a lucky girl... I mean a lucky fox~! Muehehehehe..."
Tang Li Xue carefully stored the [Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core] into her space pouch along with the golden [Ocean God Trident].
Then she took out the [Star Cluster Ginseng] from her space pouch instead.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to use her basic [All Knowing Eyes] to check the [Star Cluster Ginseng]since she already obtained all of the information about the [Star Cluster Ginseng] after her perfect copy used [Paranormal Intuition] to find its hidden location before.
Tang Li Xue closed her charming topaz blue eyes and silently prayed in her heart: ''I hope this [Star Cluster Ginseng] will have enough star energy for my evolution to [Rare] grade! Please, please, please... Pretty please~!''
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath before she asked her System: "System, how many points of star energy are contained in this [Star Cluster Ginseng]?"
*Ding~!
[That [Star Cluster Ginseng] is only a few hundred years old, so the star energy contained inside it is not much, only 73 points of star energy.]
The confused Tang Li Xue raised her jade-like fingers and began to count.
"I have Nine Radiant Star Fruits containing 560 points of star energy."
"Seven Stars Soul Grass and Seven Stars Soul Pills contain 54 points of star energy."
"Adding this [Star Cluster Ginseng] with 73 points of star energy... So, I have 687 points of star energy in total?!"
"Damn it~! Does it mean I still need another 63 points of star energy to reach 750 points of star energy?!"
Tang Li Xue fell on her knees weakly and cried in frustration.
She had spent so much time and effort to get this [Star Cluster Ginseng], but it was only worth 73 points of star energy!
It was not even worth a tenth of the Nine Radiant Star Fruits she obtained from the previous Medicine Herb Garden!
Even though the danger risk in this underwater pce was surely much lowerpared to the previous Medicine Herb Garden, but she thought the star treasures stored in this ce should be at least worth a third of the Nine Radiant Star Fruits which was around 150 points of star energy.
Who knew that [Star Cluster Ginseng] actually did not even worth a seventh of the Nine Radiant Star Fruits?!
Tang Li Xue was so disappointed right now that she really wanted to kill herself with a block of tofu.
When Tang Li Xue stared at the [Star Cluster Ginseng] in her grasp, she gnashed her pearl-white teeth as unbearable anger raised in her heart.
But when Tang Li Xue raised her hand with the intention to throw away the [Star Cluster Ginseng] in her grasp, a light of inspiration suddenly shed in her mind!
Her System''s words crossed in her mind: ''That [Star Cluster Ginseng] is only a few hundred years old, so the star energy contained inside it is not much.''
Yes, the [Star Cluster Ginseng] was only a few hundred years old...
But what if it was tens of thousands of years old [Star Cluster Ginseng]?!
The star energy contained inside the tens of thousands of years old [Star Cluster Ginseng] should be really tremendous, right?!
Tang Li Xue carefully took out the [Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core] again from her space pouch.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining brightly in excitement when she read the third effect of the [Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core]!
[Effect 3: It can be used to speed up the growth of any nt and add tens of thousands of years of maturity to any nt in an instant.]
All right, I know what you guys have been waiting for~! (>w<) But please be patient, it would be only a few more chapters away! godadi
Chapter 868: Xier!
868 Chapter 868: Xi''er!
Tang Li Xue almost wanted to use the [Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core] on the [Star Cluster Ginseng] directly on the spot.
But she quickly suppressed the reckless urge and carefully stored both [Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core] and [Star Cluster Ginseng] in her space pouch first for now.
Tang Li Xue and her team had fought so fiercely against the [Nether Rafflesia Flower], and they had notpletely recovered from their exhaustion yet.
No one could tell if the [Star Cluster Ginseng] would be another [Nether Rafflesia Flower] or [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] after she used [Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core] to add tens of thousands of years of maturity to [Star Cluster Ginseng]ter.
''The risk is really too high, so it would be best to just y safe...'' Tang Li Xue thought as she decided to wait for the right time and ce before she used the [Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core] on the [Star Cluster Ginseng].
Tang Li Xue chose not to go back to sleep and silently guarded the sleeping Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia instead.
She also realized that she had already slept for a few hours after Lucia brought her and the others out from the copsed cave.
Then she immediately fell asleep in great exhaustion because she had squeezed all of her energy to use her all-out power to throw the golden [Ocean God Trident] twice.
Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia were fast asleep for a few more hours than Tang Li Xue before they slowly woke up one by one.
There was nothing for them to do in the pill and elixir room anymore, so Tang Li Xue led Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia out of the pill and elixir room and went back to the front hall together.
Xi''er''s eyes brightened when she saw Tang Li Xue and her group again, and she quickly greeted all of them cheerfully: "Hello, everyone~! Did everything go smoothly? Did you all seed in getting what you were looking for?"
Tang Li Xue nodded at Xi''er with a delightful smile on her stunningly beautiful face and replied: "Not bad, our harvests are really satisfying. We managed to get many good things!"
"Oh, really? Congrattions!" Xi''er happily congratted Tang Li Xue.
The lonely Xi''er instantly turned into a chatterbox and asked this and that to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue did not feel annoyed at all as she understood Xi''er''s feelingspletely.
After all, Tang Li Xue was also the same as Xi''er in her previous life. She was also trapped alone in the hospital bed for almost as long as she could remember.
When her brother came to visit her, she would also turn into a chatterbox and ask so many things from her brother just like the current Xi''er to relieve her loneliness.
Tang Li Xue narrated everything that happened to her and her team in the armory and elixir room before.
Tang Li Xue and Xi''er happily chatted and joked with each other for more than an hour.
Then Tang Li Xue fell silent for a few moments before she muttered softly in a sorrowful tone: "I am really sorry, Xi''er... But this is the time for us to go."
The cheerful Xi''er sullenly lowered her head in great sorrow.
She might want to cry sadly at this moment, but there were no tearsing out from her eyes since she was just the spirit of the guardian statue after all, not the real living creature.
However, it was clearly impossible for Tang Li Xue and her group to live here forever just to apany Xi''er.
But Tang Li Xue was still feeling very sorry if she must leave Xi''er here alone again.
Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth and decided to ask Xi''er: "Xi''er, do you have a way so you can get out of here? If so, would you like to join our team and get out of this ce together?"
The sullen Xi''er raised her head again and stared at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with astonishment mixed with hope.
"Ah?! Wha... What did you just say? You... You really want me to join your team?! Re... Really? I didn''t hear it wrong, right?" Xi''er asked in a tone filled with disbelief.
Tang Li Xue smiled kindly at Xi''er and nodded her head.
An innocent delightful smile bloomed on Xi''er''s face. She opened her mouth several times, but no words came out because she did not know what to say to Tang Li Xue.
In the end, Xi''er could only nod at Tang Li Xue with a resolute expression on her face and said: "Thank you very much."
Xi''er decided to not say so many meaningless things since she would show her gratitude with her actions in the future.
Tang Li Xueughed while saying: "All right, you do not need to be so serious. So, you really have a way to get out of this pce?"
But Xi''er shook her head instead which made Tang Li Xue very confused.
Before Tang Li Xue could ask, Xi''er already quickly exined to her: "As the guardian of this pce, I cannot get out of this ce. It means I will never be able to get out of this pce as long as I use this guardian statue as my vessel."
"If I can separate my spirit and consciousness from this statue and possess the other treasure as my new vessel, then I will be able to get out of here." Xi''er concluded her exnation.
Xi''er hesitated for a few moments before she added: "But ordinary treasures are not strong enough to be my new vessel, so it has to be a powerful treasure that surpasses spirit treasure level... and my strength will be greatly reduced for a very long time if I abandon my current vessel and transfer to a new vessel."
Xi''er was really afraid that Tang Li Xue would change her mind after Tang Li Xue heard that her strength would be greatly reduced after she transferred to a new vessel.
Xi''er did not even dare to stare at Tang Li Xue at this time.
However, Tang Li Xue did not even care about that right now.
Tang Li Xue was currently pinching her chin and pondering carefully about what kind of treasure she would use as Xi''er''s new vessel.
To be honest, she did not have many powerful treasures that surpassed the spirit treasure level at this moment.
Eventually, Tang Li Xue took the pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] and golden [Ocean God Trident] from her space pouch, then she decided to let Xi''er choose by herself.
"I only have these two weapons which might surpass the spirit treasure level. Which one do you want to use as your future vessel?" Tang Li Xue asked Xi''er.
"I..." Xi''er felt really touched by Tang Li Xue''s move, and she really wanted to cry because of it.
The treasures that surpassed the spirit treasure level were undoubtedly priceless, but Tang Li Xue let her choose without any doubt just like that!
Xi''er secretly vowed in her heart that she would devote her life to Tang Li Xue from now on and work diligently like a cow and horse for Tang Li Xue.
Xi''er took a look at the pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] and golden [Ocean God Trident], then examined them carefully for a few minutes.
"Both of them are really good, but I can surely help you more if I use that ck sword as my new vessel." Xi''er told her opinion to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise.
She did not expect that Xi''er would choose such an ominous treasure like the [Sword of Disaster] as her new vessel.
Honestly, Tang Li Xue did not really agree with Xi''er''s opinion to use [Sword of Disaster] as her new vessel.
It was because Tang Li Xue had long been prepared to let Little Loki swallow the [Sword of Disaster] anytime if someday anyone from the Undead Race knew that this [Sword of Disaster] was actually their [Key of Undead''s Glory].
So, Tang Li Xue decided to ask more clearly to Xi''er: "Oh? Can you exin to me why do you think so?" n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
11:27
But Tang Li Xue was truly curious about the reason why Xi''er said that she could surely help her more if she used that ck sword as her new vessel.
So, Tang Li Xue decided to ask more clearly to Xi''er: "Oh? Can you exin to me why do you think so?"
Xi''er smiled politely at Tang Li Xue and said: "I can faintly sense death and darkness energy emitting from this ck sword, so I guess this ck sword should not be used for fighting head-on frontally."
"ording to the power contained in this ck sword, it should be used to control corpses or undead creatures to fight against enemies."
"It should not be easy for you to fight while using this sword to control the corpses or undead creatures, but it would be a different story if this sword became my new vessel."
"You can just focus on fighting the enemies and just leave the matters about controlling the corpses or undead creatures to me." Xi''er concluded her exnation and left the decision to Tang Li Xue.
Actually, it was also not a problem if Xi''er used the golden [Ocean God Trident] as her new vessel. It was just her capability would be wasted, and her usefulness would not be as big as using [Sword of Disaster] as her vessel.
The golden [Ocean God Trident] was definitely an extremely powerful treasure, but its utilization was straightforward for frontal head-on battle without leaving Xi''er any chance to interfere much.
But if she used pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] as her new vessel, not only she could help Tang Li Xue to control the corpse legion in the battle, but she could even help Tang LiXue to look after the growth of all the corpses that were stored inside it.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone much brighter as the smile on her stunningly beautiful face became even more dazzling than before.
"What a great idea~!" Tang Li Xue pped her hands and eximed in an excited tone.
Tang Li Xue actually got two newpanions in one go~! (>w<) So, Xi''er could be counted as the ''necromancer'' in their team now?

Chapter 869: Last Preparation Before Evolving!
869 Chapter 869: Last Preparation Before Evolving!
Tang Li Xue happily gave a thumbs up to Xi''er and said: "Okay, I agree! You can do it now~! Oh, wait a second... Can you estimate how long it will take toplete the process?" n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Xi''er pondered for a while and replied: "It will not take long maybe less than one hour. But I will probably fall into a quite long deep sleep after that since the transferring process is pretty taxing for my spirit."
Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief after she heard Xi''er''s answer.
Tang Li Xue did not have much time after all, and she definitely could not stay in this underwater pce for too long.
It would be really awkward if Xi''er said that she would need one month or so toplete the transfer process since Tang Li Xue might have to consider canceling her offer for Xi''er to join her team.
Let alone one month, Tang Li Xue obviously could not even wait for a week because she had to prepare for her evolution to [Rare] Grade Beast as soon as possible before Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and the Exploration Team could find her.
"All right, you can begin now." Tang Li Xue smiled and nodded at Xi''er as she threw the [Sword of Disaster] to Xi''er and stored the [Ocean God Trident] back into her space pouch.
Xi''er easily caught the [Sword of Disaster] with her palm while nodding back at Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression.
Then Xi''er closed her eyes as her entire body was shining with blue light.
While waiting for Xi''er toplete the transfer process, Tang Li Xue took out some snacks, beast cores, and Spirit Dew Cucumbers from her space pouch to feed herself, Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia.
The shiny blue light slowly shrunk until it became as big as a fist before it flew out from the forehead of the one-hundred-meter-tall Sea Queen stone statue andnded on the pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster].
Countless thin cracks quickly spread on the Sea Queen stone statue.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Tang Li Xue and her group hastily ran away further from the Sea Queen stone statue since it actually crumbled to pieces.
"Xi''er?" Tang Li Xue muttered in a worried tone.
But at this time, the pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] flew swiftly and stopped right in front of Tang Li Xue.
"It is done~! Finally, I can..." Xi''er''s excited voice came out from the pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster], but her voice sounded very tired and weak.
Before Xi''er could finish her words, she suddenly fell into a deep sleep.
The blue light that wrapped the pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] faded away, and the [Sword of Disaster] fell into Tang Li Xue''s hands.
Tang Li Xue chuckled as she gently caressed the [Sword of Disaster] while muttering: "Wee, Xi''er~! I am really d that you can join us."
The [Sword of Disaster] in Tang Li Xue''s grasp trembled slightly as if the sleeping Xi''er could hear Tang Li Xue''s greet and tried to respond back.
Tang Li Xueughed in amusement while flicking the [Sword of Disaster] lightly, then she carefully stored the [Sword of Disaster] in her space pouch too.
Yaya and Little Loki jumped toward Tang Li Xue and satzily on her right and left shoulders.
Then Tang Li Xue rode on Lucia''s back before Lucia pped her wings rapidly and flew toward the underwater pce''s entrance gates.
The underwater pce''s entrance gates were still closed tightly, but Lucia forcefully pushed them open with her headbutt.
BAAAAANGG~!
There were actually still so many mermen patrolling outside the underwater pce!
They immediately noticed Lucia, Tang Li Xue, and her group when Lucia flew out from the underwater pce.
That army of mermen desperately chased after Tang Li Xue''s group, but they clearly could notpete with Lucia''s extremely fast flying speed.
In the end, the army of mermen unleashed a barrage of water and ice spells toward Lucia in order to shoot her down first.
Just when the rain of water and ice spells almost reached Lucia, she hastily unleashed her [Slow Motion] buff skill!
[Slow Motion: The user will feel the flow of time around him/her slow down tenfold. Buff duration: 5 minutes, Cooldown: 1 hour.]
Lucia instantly felt the barrage of water and ice spells that rained upon her be very slow.
Lucia''s flying speed also soared by ten times as she tilted and swayed her body to the right and left to dodge the rain of ice and water spells by a hair''s breadth.
It only took a few breaths of time for Lucia to leave the army of merman far behind until they could no longer see back.
Lucia slowed down her flying speed by more than half as she flew out of the underwater cave and swam back underwater.
Lucia''s speed once again dropped a lot when she moved underwater.
After swimming upward for quite some time, Lucia finally managed to bring Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki out from under theke.
Fortunately, they did not bump into any annoying enemies such as the previous enormous snakes or any mermen on their way this time.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she and her group sessfully got away from those mermen''s chase and came out safely from under theke.
Tang Li Xue quickly used her Profound Law of Heat to dry her soaking body and clothes along with Lucia, Yaya, and Little Loki''s wet bodies.
"Don''t fly too high, Lucia. Who knows if we will get noticed by powerful enemies because of it." Tang Li Xue warned Lucia in a solemn tone.
Lucia immediately followed Tang Li Xue''s suggestion and lowered her flying height until it was only below a hundred meters.
"Kweek Keaaak Kweeak~? (Where should we go now~?)" Lucia tilted her head and asked Tang Li Xue.
"Oh, right... Err, let''s just look for a remote ce where no one is around." Tang Li Xue replied to Lucia.
Previously, Tang Li Xue wanted to just evolve in the underwater pce''s front hall, so Xi''er could protect her in the process of her evolution, but she quickly changed her mind in the end.
ording to the phenomenon caused by her previous evolution to the [Umon] grade beast, themotion caused by her evolution this time should be several times greaterpared to that time.
There would be a high chance that the entire underwater pce or even the entire underwater cave wouldpletely copse because of themotion caused by her evolution!
If that really happened, then Tang Li Xue along with all of herpanion pets and Xi''er would be buried forever under theke!
On their way, Tang Li Xue saw some scattered foxes from the exploration team, but she immediately told Lucia to run away from them quickly before those foxes from the exploration team could notice their group.
Tang Li Xue did not want to meet or greet them for now because those foxes would certainly drag her to join them, then she would have no choice other than to look for the other foxes with them.
Lucia, Tang Li Xue, and their group also met with many bird-type zombified creatures, but they did not bother to fight, kill, or catch those zombie birds, they would either avoid those zombie birds or just run away from them.
After flying for an hour or so, Lucia brought Tang Li Xue and the others to the remote ce on the cliff area.
"Okay, this is a good ce. Then let''s choose this ce." Tang Li Xue muttered in satisfaction while patting Lucia''s back.
Lucia lowered her flying height andnded gracefully on the top of the cliff.
"Let''s split up and clean all the zombies around this ce first. It would be bad if something unexpected because of them." Tang Li Xue instructed Lucia, Yaya, and Little Loki with a serious expression.
Tang Li Xue obviously did not want any unexpected ident to happen in the process when she evolved into [Rare] Grade Beastter.
There were not too many zombie creatures wandering around this cliff areapared to the jungle area, and even their strength was pitifully weaker, so Tang Li Xue, Lucia, Yaya, and Little Loki easily cleaned them up in only around ten minutes.
After they gathered again, Tang Li Xue nodded at them and said to them with a serious expression: " I will start my evolution to [Rare] grade... I mean to Beast Lord right now, so I hope you all can help to protect me."
Lucia, Yaya, and Little Loki stopped ying around with each other and nodded at Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression.
Little Loki transformed to its Battle Form and summoned out all of its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones.
Tang Li Xue also took out the golden [Ocean God Trident] from her space pouch and gave it back to Yaya.
With Lucia, Yaya, Little Loki, and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones protecting around her, Tang Li Xue instantly felt warm, safe, and reassured.
Tang Li Xue canceled her human form and transformed back to her fox form, so she could use her full strength to face the tribtion phenomenon caused by her evolutionter.
Then she opened her window status in her System to check her current overall strength.

Chapter 870: Unboxing With The Power of Luck!
"Oh, I actually still have a [Level 40 Advanced Gift Package]~?! Hehehe, I really forgot about it." Tang Li Xue chuckled in embarrassment, but her topaz blue eyes shone with excitement.
Tang Li Xue took out the [Level 40 Advanced Gift Package] from her System''s item storage, but she suddenly halted her paws before she could open it.
Then she reluctantly took out the [Greater Lucky Sticker] too and murmured: "This is myst [Greater Lucky Sticker], and I have not gotten any other lucky sticker so far. Even System''s mall has not sold any lucky stickers yet until now."
After taking a deep breath, Tang Li Xue finally decided to use [Greater Lucky Sticker] and stuck it onto her furry chest.
*Ding~!
[Greater Lucky Sticker Buff duration: 00:10:00]
"What a cheapskate System~! How could such a precious buff item onlyst for 10 minutes?! At least it should be able tost for a full day, right?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in annoyance.
"Okay, let''s just forget about that for now. Cheapskate System, you should make up for that and just give me some good items from this package, okay?! OPEN!" Tang Li Xue muttered nervously as she opened the [Level 40 Advanced Gift Package].
*Ding!
[Gained: 5x Double Exp Cards, 2x Double Reward Cards, 1x Random Power Ticket, 1x Greater Lucky Sticker, 2x Substitute Doll, 1x Golden Lottery Ticket, 1x Ability Upgrade Voucher, 5,000 Deity Coins, Free Allocation Stat Points +1,000, Free Skill Points +500, Level 60 Super Gift Package]
"So many~!" Tang Li Xue gasped in shock and disbelief when she saw the notification from her System.
She even almost passed out in happiness, but she immediately pped her cheeks with her paws: "No way, I definitely cannot waste my extremely precious [Greater Lucky Sticker Buff] by passing out in happiness~!"
She had already obtained most of them before, but there were still some new items she never had seen until now. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Tang Li Xue hastily checked them one by one to see their purpose.
[Double Reward Cards: If you use this card, you can get double rewards forpleting any quest.]
"Hiss~! Good stuff! Moreover, I have obtained two cards at once!" Tang Li Xueughed happily while putting away the two [Double Reward Cards] into her System''s item storage.
[Ability Upgrade Voucher: You can use this card to upgrade any one of your skills, martial arts, divine abilities, Battle Style skills, Regalia abilities, and so on to a higher grade for free.]
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in astonishment, and she was even stunned for a few moments in disbelief.
"WOOOAAAH~! This [Ability Upgrade Voucher] is surely the most awesome reward I have ever gotten!" Tang Li Xue shouted excitedly while jumping and dancing around like an insane fox.
She almost could not hold back herself and immediately used the [Ability Upgrade Voucher] in her grasp on the spot.
But Tang Li Xue quickly woke up and stopped herself.
After pondering for a while, she decided to put away the [Ability Upgrade Voucher] while muttering to warn herself: "No, it would be such a huge waste to use this [Ability Upgrade Voucher] at my current level."
"I should use this voucher after I evolved into a Spirit Beast or even to a higher grade beast. At that time, I should have already awakened much more powerful divine abilities or skills. If I used this voucher to improve my strongest ability at that time... Uwehehehe, it seems to be the only way to maximize the value of this voucher!" Tang Li Xue concluded while nodding her head in satisfaction at her own high intelligence.
Tang Li Xue was already very familiar with [Double Exp Cards], [Greater Lucky Sticker], [Substitute Dolls], and [Level 60 Super Gift Package], so she directly put them away in her System''s item storage without checking their functions.
Tang Li Xue was also extremely satisfied with 5000 Deity Coins, 1000 Free Allocation Stat Points, and 500 Free Skill Points she just obtained from the package.
The overall rewards of the [Level 40 Advanced Gift Package] were certainly several times betterpared to the previous [Level 20 Intermediate Gift Package].
Tang Li Xue was really itching to open the [Level 60 Super Gift Package], but unfortunately, she could not open that right now.
Then Tang Li Xue shifted her attention to thest two rewards...
[Random Power Ticket] and [Golden Lottery Ticket]!
Both of them were lottery tickets, but [Random Power Ticket] could be used to obtain a random skill or divine ability, while [Golden Lottery Ticket] was used to obtain a random item.
Since Tang Li Xue still had [Greater Lucky Sticker Buff], then now should be the best time for her to use both of them.
"This should be my first [Golden Lottery Ticket]. I have only ever gotten [Silver Lottery Ticket] before. I hope I can get something really good from it." Tang Li Xue said in a tone filled with hope.
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes for a moment and took a deep breath while silently praying in her heart: ''Oh, God in Heaven, Grandma Meng, Uncle Sun, Heavenly Emperor, Buddha, and all other Gods please hear my prayer! Please bless me so I can get an extremely good item or divine ability!''
[The brilliant golden wheel of fate started to spin!]
[Double Reward Cards]¡ [Premium Weapon Chest]¡ [Premium Cultivation Voucher]¡ [Premium Armor Set]¡ [Random Power Ticket]¡ [Great Cmity Sticker]¡ [Greater Lucky Sticker]... [Ability Upgrade Voucher]...
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes followed the movement of the golden wheel which was spinning so fast that until she became dizzy.
Then the golden wheel started to slow down¡ before it stopped in the end while pointing at¡
*Ding~!
[Congrattion! You got 1x [Premium essories Chest] from the golden wheel of fate!]
"[Premium essories Chest]?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in amazement.
Tang Li Xue obtained her [Heaven Covering Ne] from [Silver Lottery Ticket] before, so she obviously expected to get an essory even more powerful and precious than [Heaven Covering Ne] from this [Premium essories Chest].
When Tang Li Xue tried to open the [Premium essories Chest] with her paws...
*Ding~!
[Please, choose the type of essory you want first before opening the Premium essories Chest!]
Dozens of different types of essories appeared in her mind.
Such as ring, ne, bracelet, anklet, mask, brooch, earring, belt, bag, crown, ribbon, hairpin, and many other types... even something like sses, bellyband, and stockings.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath in surprise and blushed in embarrassment when she saw the bellyband and a pair of stockings in the option.
"Wow, something obtained from [Golden Lottery Ticket] is really amazing~!" Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in amazement when she saw so many types of essories for her to choose from.
But Tang Li Xue quickly realized that having too many choices was not actually a good thing.
Tang Li Xue instantly fell into a dilemma and did not know which essory type she should choose.
"It would be best if I could wear it in both my fox and human form, so I would not choose something like a bag, hat, belt, hairpin, and... err... bellyband, and stockings." Tang Li Xue hastily narrowed down her choice since the duration of [Greater Lucky Sticker Buff] kept ticking down.
Tang Li Xue actually wanted to just choose a ne, but she already wore two nes right now, [Heaven Covering Ne] and [Huang Family Heirloom Ring Ne].
She was not sure if her System would allow her to wear another ne since anyone was usually only allowed to wear one ne in any game.
Well, it would be too OP if she could wear a hundred nes with stacked stats increases and effects, right?
As if sensing Tang Li Xue''s confusion, System immediately rified it...
*Ding~!
[Host only allowed to wear one set of equipment obtained from System, so Host could not equip another ne. But there is still one slot of equipment on the head and both hands, so technically, the Host can wear three more pieces of equipment.]
[Host can also choose a special type of equipment such as bellyband and stockings which count as essories for the body and feet.]
Tang Li Xue''s mouth twitched slightly when her System mentioned about bellyband and stockings.
She immediately ignored it and focused on System''s first sentence.
"I see, so I can choose a crown, mask, or earring as head essory, then two rings or bracelets to wear on both of my hands." Tang Li Xue muttered while nodding her head in understanding.
After being indecisive for a few moments, Tang Li Xue decided to just close her eyes and let her luck choose for her instead.
Anyway, she had full confidence in her luck... Well, as long as [Greater Lucky Sticker Buff] was still in effect.
*Ding~!
[Congrattion! You got the [Myriad Manifestation Fox Mask] from the Premium essories Chest!]
Tang Li Xue had wasted more than thirty seconds of [Greater Lucky Sticker Buff] duration just now, so she resisted the urge to immediately check the effects of her newly obtained [Myriad Manifestation Fox Mask] and hastily used [Random Power Ticket].
[The wheel of power started to spin!]
[Chaos Field]... [Meteor Shower]... [Fast Flight]... [Diamond Body]... [Heaven Smite]... [Illusion Dreand]... [Super Telekinesis]... [Soul Sacrifice]... [Scorching Barrage]...[Freezing Beam]... [Binding Contract]... [Darkness Impact]... [Space Severing]... [Frost Bubbles]... [Frozen Heart]... [Blizzard Calling]...[Ode of Peace]... [Healing Hymn]... [Fortune Intervention]...
Every skill or divine ability looked really useful and powerful this time.
There were no weak or stupid-looking skills such as [Rolling], [Tackle], [Provoke], or [Basic Heal] like when she used the [Random Power Ticket] for the first time.
"Woah, that space-type divine ability looks so awfully powerful. Please, just choose that one~!" Tang Li Xue urged with an excited tone.
The wheel of power began to slow down, and it finally stopped¡
Chapter 871: Tang Li Xues 3rd Evolution!
Chapter 871: Tang Li Xue''s 3rd Evolution!
[Congrattion! You got mid-tier divine ability [Divine Will] from the wheel of power!]
"Mi... Mid-tier? I only got a mid-tier divine ability this time?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in great disappointment.
It could not be helped since she previously obtained a unique-tier divine ability, [Energy Maniption] from the first [Random Power Ticket].
As a unique-tier divine ability, [Energy Maniption] clearly has unlimited potential and possibilities.
Compared to that, a mere mid-tier divine ability seemed far inferior to Tang Li Xue''s expectations.
Tang Li Xue surely expected to get much more than just that since she was still under the effect of [Greater Lucky Sticker Buff], and she should still be extremely lucky right now.
Tang Li Xue still could not ept it, so she decided to take a peek at the effect of the new mid-tier divine ability she had just gotten for a second.
[Divine Will]: Grant five times effect from Spirit stat, and increase all perceptions by three times. Active Effect: (Mind''s Eyes: The user will temporarily have a pair of eyes that have the power to read anyone''s mind and predict anyone''s movement ahead of time. Buff duration: 5 minutes, Cooldown: 5 hours.)
Tang Li Xue waspletely dumbfounded and even her mind went nk for a few seconds in astonishment when she saw the effect of the [Divine Will].
"UWOOHHH~! Damn, so it is actually a jackpot~! Bwahahaha~!" Tang Li Xue shouted andughed excitedly.
The normal stats such as Strength, Agility, and Toughness were definitely important for Tang Li Xue, but she already had [Super Speed] to boost them all.
[Super Speed]: Grant three times effect from Strength and Toughness stats, and five times from Agility stat. Active effect: (Wings of Freedom: Increase the effect of Agility stat by five more times and grant Fast Flight buff for 15 minutes duration. Cooldown: 1 hour)
As you can see, [Super Speed] gave a pretty huge boost to Tang Li Xue''s overall stats, except for her Spirit stat.
But Spirit stat should be the most important and the most needed stat for the current Tang Li Xue to improve her strength.
Some of her most important divine abilities such as [Mystic Whisper], [Extrasensory Perception], and [Paranormal Intuition] depend on her Spirit stat.
The effect of her newly awakened Spiritualist battle-style skills such as [Spirit Shock] and [Eyes of Illusion] also depends on her Spirit stat.
Not to mention her abilities from [Regalia of Eclipse] such as [Eclipse of Desire] and [Eclipse of Sins], their power depends on her Spirit Stat too.
It could be said that this [Divine Will] came at the right time when Tang Li Xue really needed it!
Especially the active skill of the [Divine Will], [Mind''s Eyes]... It was basically the lesser version of Meng Yue''s mind-reading divine ability!
Apart from her [Mind''s Eyes] having limited duration and long cooldown, there should be almost no difference between this [Mind''s Eyes] and Meng Yue''s mind-reading divine ability.
It took a while for Tang Li Xue topletely calm down her excitement.
"The effect of [Greater Lucky Sticker Buff] really never disappoints me!" Tang Li Xue nodded her head while smiling happily in satisfaction.
The lottery session finally came to an end, so it was finally time for Tang Li Xue topletely focus on her evolution.
Tang Li Xue had already spent so much effort to reach this point, but when the time came, she actually felt scared and had a thought to back down instead.
It could not be helped since the tribtion she must faceter should be extremely terrible, it must be many times more terrifying than the previous Core Formation Stage''s Lightning tribtion that almost killed her.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs as she forcefully pushed away all of her fear and hesitation before she took out all of the treasures containing star energies from her space pouch and put them all right in front of her.
Then she grabbed both the [Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core] and the [Star Cluster Ginseng].
"Err, how to use this green Crystal Core to increase the maturity of [Star Cluster Ginseng]?" Tang Li Xue frowned and tilted her head in confusion. N?v(el)B\\jnn
Without any clue about it, Tang Li Xue could only try to put the [Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core] and the [Star Cluster Ginseng] together.
Who knew that the [Star Cluster Ginseng] miraculously took the initiative to rapidly suck the immense amount of vitality energy from the [Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core]?!
The growth maturity of the [Star Cluster Ginseng] was suddenly increasing so fast!
500 years old...
1,000 years old...
5,000 years old...
10,000 years old!
Even after reaching 10,000 years old, the growth of [Star Cluster Ginseng] still did not stop. On the contrary, it seemed to grow even more rapidly than before!
The [Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core] kept shrinking and bing smaller. Even the green light it emitted became a lot dimmer.
In Tang Li Xue''s eyes, The name of [Star Cluster Ginseng] had changed to [Star Glittering Ginseng].
The [Star Glittering Ginseng] emitted dazzling seven-colored light.
Anyone could easily see that it had transformed into an extremely precious treasure just in one nce.
Then the [Star Glittering Ginseng] was trembling more and more violently in Tang Li Xue''s grasp as if it could escape anytime.
"Not good~! This [Star Glittering Ginseng] actually awakens its wisdom and sentience!" Tang Li Xue eximed in panic.
There was no doubt that the [Star Glittering Ginseng] would be something like [Nether Rafflesia Flower] or [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] really soon!
With a maturity of several tens of thousands of years old, the [Star Glittering Ginseng]''s strength would definitely reach a terrifying level!
At that time, it would be a big question if Tang Li Xue could eat the [Star Glittering Ginseng] safely, or it might be the [Star Glittering Ginseng] who would eat Tang Li Xue instead.
In anxiety and panic, Tang Li Xue decided to just stuff both the [Star Glittering Ginseng] and the remaining of [Nether Rafflesia Flower''s Crystal Core] at once into her mouth, then she forcefully swallowed all of them down in one gulp!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs to withstand the unbearable pain as her entire body instantly swelled and turned red.
Normally, even any Beast Lord or [Rare]-Grade Beast would not be able to bear such an enormous amount of energy contained in them, and they would burst and then die.
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue''s System immediately worked to automatically digest that enormous amount of energy and used it for Tang Li Xue''s evolution!
Tang Li Xue''s swelled red body returned back to normal after a few seconds or so, but she fell weakly on the ground and breathed heavily.
She truly felt that she would really die just now...
If not because she still had [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protections and [Substitute Dolls] to protect her life, she would definitely not dare to do such a reckless suicidal action.
*Ding~!
[Checking the total star energies inside the Host''s body...]
[Detecting the current total of the star energies has reached more than 999!]
Tang Li Xue shook her head and did not know whether she had tough or cry.
She had spent so much effort and time looking for several treasures with star energies for her evolution, but it only took one [Star Glittering Ginseng] to sessfully overfulfill the star energies required for her evolution.
Yes, Tang Li Xue had not even consumed the other star treasures other than [Star Glittering Ginseng] yet right now!
"Damn it~! It is really such a waste to just throw them away, so..." Tang Li Xue took the other treasures with star energies and gulped all of them down too.
[The star energies contained in the Host''s body have surpassed ten times the required amount!]
[The star energies in the Host''s body have far surpassed the requirement for the Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox''s evolution path!]
[Strength, Agility, Toughness, and Spirit stats are over 2,000 points and have reached the maximum limit of the current grade!]
[Detecting that Host already has one star-rted divine ability!]
[All the requirements to evolve into the Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox have been fulfilled!]
[However, System detected a serious imbnce between the Sun, Moon, and Stars energies in the Host''s body.]
[Establishing connection with the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]...]
[The connection with the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] has been sessfully established!]
The [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in Tang LiXue''s Dantian suddenly emitted unbearable heat, and it made even the [Sun Dragon Bloodline] in Tang Li Xue''s body boiling hot.
The power of the sun began to fight against the mysterious and destructive power of stars!
With the help of the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] in Tang Li Xue''s Dantian, the power of the sun immediately became a dominant one!
But the freezing cold power of the moon suddenly rose to contend with the power of the sun!
The fight between them became the power of the moon plus stars against the power of the Sun!
[Stabilizing the amount of Yang Sun energies, Yin Moon energies, and Star energies...]
[The bnce between Yang Sun energies, Yin Moon energies, and Star energies has been met!]
[Initiating the evolution process for the host into the Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox...]
Tang Li Xue hastily took out all of the buff talismans in her space pouch and used them on herself.
[Talisman of Giant Strength +3], [Talisman of Lightning Speed +3], [Talisman of Iron Skin +3], [Talisman of Numbness +3], [Talisman of Regeneration +3], [Talisman of Lightning Resistance +3]... and so on.
"All right... Come on, I am fully ready~!" Tang Li Xue eagerly said with a solemn expression.
Chapter 872: Terrifying Evolution Phenomenon!
Chapter 872: Terrifying Evolution Phenomenon!
Unbearable pain and itchiness began to spread through Tang Li Xue''s entire body.
Tang Li Xue thought she would definitely be able to bear it this time since she was already quite familiar with it, but she quickly realized that she was wrong.
The unbearable pain and itchiness she felt from her previous evolution was actually nothingpared to what she was feeling at this moment!
Tang Li Xue felt her body was like being torn into pieces, but then it was restored again, then torn into pieces again... It kept repeating again and again countless times every second!
Just waiting for one minute to pass was like getting tortured for years.
''You have to be kidding me, right?! Is this pain and itchiness something anyone can bear?!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs as shey down weakly on the top of the cliff.
For the first time, Tang Li Xue thought that the illness in her previous life and death were not so bad... But Tang Li Xue hastily shook her head to push away all of her negative thoughts and focused her entire mind to withstand the torturing pain and itchiness.
Lucia, Yaya, and Little Loki who were guarding dozens of meters around Tang Li Xue could only look worriedly at Tang Li Xue from afar, but they did not dare to recklessly approach Tang Li Xue since their action might affect her evolution process.

BOOOOOOOOOOOM~!
Hei Yinghao... or rather Silly Fox slowly crawled out from the cave after he destroyed the closed stone gate that sealed the cave entrance.
"Cough, cough... Bwahahaha~! Finally, I am free!" Silly Foxughed happily when he finally saw the bright sun again.
Just like the others, Silly Fox was also randomly teleported after the space tunnel suddenly broke apart.
But when he woke up, he was actually trapped inside the dark cave.
He explored the entire cave for several days to find the exit but only managed to find the closed stone gate.
In desperation, Silly Fox could only decide to try to attack the closed stone gate with all of his strength in order to get out of the dark cave, but the closed stone gate did not even budge or get scratched by his attack.
After that, Silly Fox tried to use hismunication device andmunication talisman to call for help from Instructor Mei Lan and the exploration team, but he realized that hismunication device andmunication talisman somehow could not be used in this secret realm.
With no other way out of the cave, Silly Fox tried to explore the cave carefully while knocking the cave wall surface inch by inch in order to find a way out from the cave.
He finally found the thinnest part of the cave wall and unleashed his full-powered attack on that ce until that cave wall copsed. N?v(el)B\\jnn
Who knew that he did not find any exit but he found a small pool instead over there?!
Silly Fox was so disappointed and fell into despair at that time.
However, that small pool was actually [100,000 years of Stctite Essense Milk] which was umted for who knows how long!
Silly Fox only realized how amazing the small pool was after he took a few sips of it, and he decided to soak himself inside that [100,000 years of Stctite Essense Milk].
It took a few days for Silly Fox topletely absorb the small pool of the [100,000 years of Stctite Essense Milk], and his strength had improved by leap and bound.
Silly Fox decided to try to attack the closed stone gate with all of his strength once again, and he finally managed to destroy the small part of the closed stone gate and crawled out from the dark cave as he did just now.
Silly Fox''s happy and relieved expression quickly changed when he recalled about Tang Li Xue.
"No, I have spent too much time trapped in that cave. I hope Xue is okay right now. Xue, don''t worry~! I will go find and save you now!" Silly Fox immediately muttered in a resolute tone.
Just when Silly Fox sprinted further from the broken stone gate, he suddenly halted his step as he realized something was not right with the sky.
"What the hell is that?!" Silly Fox murmured in shock as he tilted his head upwards to look at the sky.
The current time should be at noon when the sun was at its highest, but there was a moon that appeared all of a sudden that covered the sun!
The clear blue sky also turned into a dark sky filled with colorful scattered stars!
Not only did Silly Fox notice the change in the sky, but the others such as Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and all the foxes from the exploration team were also aware of it right now!
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply as she muttered: "Moon that suddenly appears to cover the sun... The sky changes from the clear blue sky to the night sky... Don''t tell me that..... Is that really you, Little Xue?"
Teacher Li Wei heard Instructor Mei Lan''s mumbling and asked in a tone filled with disbelief: "Is this strange phenomenon caused by that little one? It should be impossible, right?"
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head to show that she was also not really sure about it, but she added: "You still do not understand how troublesome that little troublemaker is~! She is basically a walking disaster!"
When Teacher Li Wei became even more curious about it, Instructor Mei Lan''s body already shuddered in fright as she recalled all the disasters that Tang Li Xue had caused so far.
"No, we have to find her quickly before something dangerous happens~!" Instructor Mei Lan said in a solemn tone as she dashed forward faster.
Teacher Li Wei hastily followed Instructor Mei Lan from behind while shouting: "Hey, wait for me!"
.....
.
Meanwhile, the tug of war between Qin Sheng, Zhu Jun, and Zhu Zhenhua against the monstrous creature that had been in the stalemate also underwent a sudden change!
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
Both Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua were thrown away hundreds of meters until they crashed into so many trees and mmed into the hill.
The main reason for that was because the monstrous creature suddenly stopped trying to reach the Lightwind Continent and pulled itself back into this Secret Realm.
Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua slowly stood up while coughing out a few mouthfuls of blood.
But both of them did not dare to lower their guard, so they kept vigntly watching the monstrous creature''s every movement.
Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua thought the monstrous creature would be extremely enraged by their action to stop it from getting out of this Secret Realm.
Strangely, the monstrous creature did not even bother to look at the two of them right now, and it only looked up toward the sky silently.
"What is it doing?" Zhu Jun frowned deeply in suspicion.
"Dad, look at the sky~!" Zhu Zhenhua anxiously said to Zhu Jun while pointing her finger at the sky.
When Zhu Jun looked up, he finally realized that a moon suddenly appeared out of nowhere and covered the sun!
Even the clear blue sky was dyed ck like a night sky filled with beautiful colorful stars!
"No way... How could it be?!" Zhu Jun murmured in shock and disbelief.
Normally, only the master of the Secret Realm could change the environment of this Secret Realm, but the master of the Secret Realm had obviously left or passed away long ago.
Zhu Jun waspletely dumbfounded since he thought that there was actually someone powerful enough to forcefully change the sky above the Secret Realm!
BWOOOOOSH~!
"Watch out, dad~!" Zhu Zhenhua shouted to warn Zhu Jun, but it was already a bit toote since the monstrous creature had already disappeared all of a sudden!
Both Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua hastily controlled their respective Fox Spirit Avatars to protect themselves from the monstrous creature''s sudden attack.
But after waiting for a few moments, Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua found out that the monstrous creature did not have any n to attack them at all, and it had truly disappeared from there.
Both Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua sighed in relief as they dispelled their Fox Spirit Avatars and sat exhaustedly on the ground.
They continuously used their Fox Spirit Avatars to maintain a stalemate situation with the monstrous creature for a few days, so they were actually already very exhausted at this moment.
Fortunately, the monstrous creature did not bother to care about them, or their life might be in great danger right now.
"Dad, why do you think it ignores us? Could it be because it was also too exhausted, so it ran away from us?" Zhu Zhenhua asked Zhu Jun.
But Zhu Jun shook his head and denied it: "It should not be because of that. Its aura is still vigorous and powerful without any sign of exhaustion."
After pondering carefully for a while, Zhu Jun concluded: "I think the reason should be the same just like before when it suddenly ran away just as it almost killed us. It should be attracted to something even more interesting than us... something... much more delicious and nutritiouspared to us."
"Don''t tell me that ugly creature wants to find the one who changed this day sky to night sky and eat it?!" Zhu Zhenhua guessed with a fearful expression.
Zhu Jun gritted his teeth as he replied: "We better recover our energy quickly and stop it! If that creature managed to do that, its power would definitely grow much stronger! At that time, we can only be its prey!"
Zhu Zhenhua nodded at Zhu Jun with a solemn expression as both of them sat cross-legged and began to focus on recovering their energy.
.....
.
Tang Li Xue still did not know that the monstrous creature had already changed its target, and it was currently looking for her.
She was still focusing her mind to withstand the unbearable pain and itchiness caused by her evolution.
I am very sorry for being absent for almost a week. I got sick again and only got better today. (TwT)
Chapter 873: Body Reconstruction!
Chapter 873: Body Reconstruction!
Tang Li Xue thought that the unbearable pain and itchiness would certainly subside sooner orter as long as she could persist through it for a few minutes or so.
However, she quickly realized that the unbearable pain and itchiness were only the beginning...
BWOOOOSSH~!
Bone chilling freezing coldness suddenly burst out of nowhere and assaulted her!
It was so cold that Tang Li Xue''s fangs were chattering while her silver furry body was shivering violently.
The thickyer of white frost began to spread with Tang Li Xue as its center.
But the scorching heat immediately broke out from her body!
The scorching heat countered the bone-chilling coldness, making the thickyer of frost that covered Tang Li Xue''s body melt rapidly.
At first, Tang Li Xue felt reallyfortable as if she soaked herself in the hot spring under the warm morning sun.
Unfortunately, thatfortable feeling did notst long... The scorching heat became more and more intense before it actually began to roast her body from inside to outside!
''Damn it~! These two bast*rds are actually fighting inside my body!'' Tang Li Xue thought while gritting her fangs in frustration.
As if her suffering was not enough yet. This time, the abundant star energy erupted out from her body all of a sudden!
The abundant star energy was extremely heavy and powerful. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Tang Li Xue felt her entire body would get crushed to dust by it!
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
The bones all over Tang Li Xue''s body began to break apart under the crushing pressure from the abundant star energy!
Tang Li Xue did not even have any strength to scream in pain.
Every time she almost passed out, the extremely unbearable pain would drag her back into reality.
Three kinds ofpletely ipatible powers: the scorching sun, chilling moon, and powerful stars were fighting fiercely inside Tang Li Xue''s body!
Tang Li Xue''s small silver furry body started to deform as if it could no longer bear the three rampaging powers!
Yaya, Lucia, and Little Loki were very anxious right now when they saw Tang Li Xue''s current condition from afar.
They really wanted to rush to approach Tang Li Xue in worry, but they also knew that they werepletely unable to do anything to help Tang Li Xue''s evolution process.
At this moment, Yaya grasped her hands with a firm expression before she transformed into a green light and shed toward Tang Li Xue, then she merged into Tang Li Xue''s body!
*Ding!
[Divine Possession had been initiated by Yaya!]
[You have merged with Yaya and entered Divine Possession mode!]
Beautiful crystal-clear fairy wings appeared on Tang Li Xue''s back in that instant.
A silver tiara decorated with many glittering green gems also appeared on the top of her furry head.
''Yaya? What the heck are you doing?!'' Tang Li Xue could not speak or use telepathy because her body felt extremely weak, and the extremely unbearable pain kept assaulting her entire body, so she could only convey her confused feeling through her mind connection with Yaya.
However, Tang Li Xue immediately understood Yaya''s intention.
By entering [Divine Possession Mode] with Tang Li Xue at this time, Yaya thought she could help Tang Li Xue alleviate some of her pain and suffering.
Yes, Yaya''s guess was right.
Tang Li Xue''s pain and suffering were alleviated a little, and she even managed to regain some strength which was actually from Yaya.
But it also meant that Yaya would receive the pain shared by Tang Li Xue instead!
Tang Li Xue was really moved by Yaya''s willingness to withstand the extremely unbearable pain and itchiness along with her, but it did not mean Tang Li Xue was willing for Yaya to suffer with her.
''Stop it, Yaya~! You are still too young to suffer this kind of pain! Cancel the [Divine Possession Mode] now! Do you hear me?!'' Tang Li Xue angrily said to Yaya through their mind connection.
Unfortunately, Yaya was really stubborn despite her small body size. She refused to listen to Tang Li Xue''s words and kept persisting on withstanding the extremely unbearable pain and itchiness with Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue could only gnash her fangs in rage, but there was nothing she could do to stop Yaya or force Yaya to cancel the [Divine Possession Mode] since she was already too upied with her evolution process.
Who knew that the scorching heat became so intense that Tang Li Xue''s entire body was lit in golden sun mes?!
There was even the second sun actually appeared in the sky right now!
''It is over...'' Tang Li Xue silently thought as her heart fell into despair.
Tang Li Xue thought she could easily pass through the evolution process with Yaya''s help, but the appearance of this second sun meant the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl] would increase the purity of [Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline] in her body further which would increase the danger Tang Li Xue had to face by many folds.
At this moment, Tang Li Xue''s martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], suddenly awoke and flew out from Tang Li Xue''s body!
"ROOOOAARR~!"
The [Golden Winged Serpent] roared toward the sky before it merged with Tang Li Xue and became a pair of golden gauntlets wrapped on Tang Li Xue''s paws.
[Summon Rain]~!
BWOOOOOOSH~!
Torrential rain poured down all of a sudden!
CRRSSS~!
All the rainwater instantly evaporated when it touched Tang Li Xue''s scorching hot body!
Even the water from the torrential rain was clearly far from enough to alleviate the extremely high temperature of the [Pure Sun Dragon Bloodline] and golden sun mes!
[Healing Bubble]~!
The healing power of the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s [Healing Bubble] was like spring water in the drought which made Tang Li Xue a bit morefortable.
Coupled with the [Golden Winged Serpent]''s other passive skills such as [Recovery buff], [Golden Scale], [Aura of Regeneration], and [Dragon Blessing], Tang Li Xue instantly felt better than before.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Currently, there are two suns and two moons in the sky!
They covered each other to form two eclipses which looked really eerie!
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
One more tail was growing behind Tang Li Xue beside her previous three tails!
So, Tang Li Xue had four tails in total right now.
Two silvery white tails represent two moons, and two golden me tails...
The extremely high-temperature mes and the bone-chilling silvery frost had reached a delicate bnce at this point.
But when the overflowing star energy contained in Tang Li Xue was also thrown in, it actually broke this delicate bnce again!
Not only the three kinds of energies in Tang Li Xue''s body were rioting, but even the phenomenon in the sky was thrown into chaos!
The countless colorful stars in the sky suddenly moved simultaneously!
They actually fell and became meteor showers!
Tang Li Xue immediately realized that something was not right since the meteor showers seemed to fly in her direction: ''These crazy bast*rds~! Are you really kidding me?!''
''Oh, no, no, no, no... Please, stop~! Don''te here!'' Tang Li Xue could only anxiously pray nervously.
However, her worry was actuallye true!
The countless colorful stars really fell toward her!
The countless colorful stars did not crash at Tang Li Xue, but they merged into Tang Li Xue''s body instead!
The overflowing star energy in Tang Li Xue''s body instantly increased by many foldspletely surpassing Tang Li Xue''s body''s capacity to contain it!
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
Tang Li Xue''s entire body was not only deformed this time but it was also filled with cracks!
The pain Tang Li Xue was suffering right now was unimaginable.
It was like fragile porcin, but the water kept pumping inside it without any leak until the fragile porcin was on the verge of shattering and exploding.
Tang Li Xue began to worriedly wonder if her [Substitute Doll], [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protections, or [Twin Moons]''s [Damage Transfer] could save her if her body exploded from insideter! Would it mean her evolution failed if that really happened?!
Right at this time, something unexpected happened again...
"YIIIIIIIIII~!"
Deep blue Phoenix of Pride finally woken up from its long slumber!
''Dumb bird?! Youzy bump, you finally wake up~!'' Tang Li Xue happily greeted the Phoenix of Pride through their mind connection.
Deep blue Phoenix of Pride red at Tang Li Xue whoy down weakly on the cliff disdainfully with an annoyed expression.
The Phoenix of Pride actually had not digested all of the Primal Chaos Energy yet, but it forcefully woke up after it sensed that Tang Li Xue was in big trouble and really needed its help.
Tang Li Xue was very angry when she saw Phoenix of Pride''s annoyed expression, so she scolded it unhappily: ''Hey, hey, hey, you ungrateful dumb bird~! How dare you stare at me like that?! Do you forget how you can get that Primal Chaos Energy?! It was because of my help, okay?! So, stopining and help me quickly!''
The Phoenix of Pride really wanted to argue back, but this was clearly not the right time to do that, so it could only obediently fly and merge with Tang Li Xue instead!
[Perfect Assimtion]~!
Tang Li Xue''s [Divine Possession] with Yaya automatically got canceled when the deep blue Phoenix of Pride entered [Perfect Assimtion Mode] with Tang Li Xue.
Yaya felt unhappy when she got kicked out of Tang Li Xue''s body by the Phoenix of Pride, but she did not throw any tantrum at this critical time.
Fusion skill, [Healing Gust]~!
Yaya kept unleashing [Healing Gust] to help Tang Li Xue patch her body which was filled with countless cracks and on the verge of copsing.
Chapter 874: Disasters Come in Pairs!
Chapter 874: Disasters Come in Pairs!
Despite already receiving timely help from Yaya, Phoenix of Pride, and [Golden Winged Serpent], but the danger Tang Li Xue had to face was clearly far from over!
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~! N?v(el)B\\jnn
Surprisingly, two more tails were actually growing behind Tang Li Xue at this time!
In short, Tang Li Xue currently had six tails!
Different from her previous golden me tails and silvery white tails which represent the sun and moon power she possessed, her current fifth and sixth tails were ck with countless tiny colorful dots of light spread on them like the starry night sky!
''UUAAARRRGGGHH~!!! So painful! So itch!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs as she kept writhing her body in great pain and itchiness.
Her entire body was continuously roasted by the golden sun mes, frozen by the bone-chilling coldness, and shattered apart by the destructive star energy.
However, the various healing effects kept healing her body again against
[Talisman of Regeneration +3] plus [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2].
Tang Li Xue''s [High-Speed Regeneration] and [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s rapid health regeneration.
Yaya''s [Healing Gust].
Various aura-type passive skills and [Healing Bubble] from [Golden Winged Serpent].
[Perfect Assimtion Mode] with deep blue Phoenix of Pride also granted Tang Li Xue extremely high resistance to heat and mes which lessened the burning damage she received from the golden sun Yang mes.
Tang Li Xue''s entire body was continuously getting destroyed and healed over and over again so many times in every passing second!
The pain she currently felt was unimaginable, but Tang Li Xue did not realize that her entire body was actually growing stronger rapidly at this moment because the current process was just like steel undergoing countless tempering every second.
Even both her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline became more and more pure and powerful as time passed!
The current evolution process seemed to reform Tang Li Xue''s bodypletely from inside to outside, but the process was extremely excruciating.
Every second felt so long like she was being tortured for years.
Right at this time, a ck silhouette suddenly shed toward Tang Li Xue!
Lucia and Little Loki had already long prepared since their task was to protect Tang Li Xue from any danger and never let anyone get close to Tang Li Xue when she was still undergoing her evolution process.
Lucia and Little Loki hastily blocked the ck silhouette before it could get close to Tang Li Xue!
"XUE~!" The ck silhouette shouted in an anxious tone filled with worry.
Yes, the ck silhouette was actually Silly Fox in his ck fox form!
However, Lucia who was d in her silver armor made from [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl], and Little Loki in its battle form still did not n to let Silly Fox approach Tang Li Xue.
Silly Fox almost lost his temper as pitch-ck lightning sparked from his body.
Fortunately, he quickly calmed down and did not forcefully break through Lucia and Little Loki''s blockade.
He immediately understood that Lucia and Little Loki did it to protect Tang Li Xue.
But when Silly Fox saw Tang Li Xue was suffering so much right now, he felt as if his heart was pierced by countless daggers.
He really wanted to take all of Tang Li Xue''s pain, so she would no longer suffer, but unfortunately, he did not know how to do it.
"No, Xue... Is there really nothing I can do to help her?" The deted Silly Fox tried to ask Lucia and Little Loki worriedly.
Lucia and Little Loki could only helplessly shake their head at Silly Fox.
Well, if both of them knew any way to help Tang Li Xue out, there was no need for Silly Fox to ask about it since they should have already done it.
Before Lucia and Little Loki could take a breath, other uninvited guests hade and charged toward Tang Li Xue again!
"Little Xue~!" A feminine gentle voice shouted in a flustered manner.
Lucia and Little Loki hastily blocked the two uninvited guests from recklessly approaching Tang Li Xue, but they immediately recognized them.
They were actually Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei!
"What happens to her?" Teacher Li Wei worriedly red and asked Lucia and Little Loki after he saw Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body curled while kept tossing and turning painfully on the cliff.
Both Lucia and Little Loki could not talk yet, so they did not know how to exin it clearly to Teacher Li Wei.
Luckily, Instructor Mei Lan could easily deduce what happened to Tang Li Xue in a few nces with her extremely high IQ.
"She should be undergoing the evolution process, and this strange phenomenon should also be caused by it." Instructor Mei Lan muttered her conclusion.
Instructor Mei Lan gritted her teeth and said in an angry tone: "What a reckless child~! You are really reckless, Little Xue! You did not even tell me about this! Do you know how dangerous it is to undergo evolution in a ce like this?!"
Tang Li Xue, who was too upied with withstanding the extremely unbearable pain and itchiness, could faintly hear a familiar voice scolding her.
She tried hard to open her heavy topaz blue eyes.
The scene in her sight might be blurry, but she could faintly see the extremely worried expressions on Silly Fox, Instructor Mei Lan, and Teacher Li Wei''s faces.
Tang Li Xue instantly felt guilty for making them worry, but she also somewhat felt warm and reassured when she saw them.
The fox exploration team also finally managed to catch up with Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei from behind.
But Lucia and Little Loki still did not let any of theme near Tang Li Xue.
The fox exploration team red suspiciously at Lucia and Little Loki. It seemed they had the suspicion that Lucia and Little Loki might take Tang Li Xue as a hostage.
The situation became really tense for a while.
Fortunately, Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei quickly exined to them, so the exploration team would not misunderstand and forcefully fight against Lucia and Little Loki in order to save Tang Li Xue.
Just when Silly Fox, Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and the exploration team waited impatiently as they could only watch Tang Li Xue suffering alone, something out of their expectation happened right at this time!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The entire secret realm suddenly shook greatly!
Even Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and their group could no longer stand up steadily, so they could only crouch instead.
Fear and panic began to spread to the entire fox exploration team.
"What happened?!"
"Did this earthquake happen in the entire secret realm?"
"This... This really does not look good for us, right?"
However, they still did not know that the great earthquake was only the beginning of their worst nightmare...
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
The loud sound of something cracking and shattering was echoing through the entire secret realm.
When Silly Fox, Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and the exploration team looked upwards to see where the loud cracking sound came from, they saw countless long cracks starting to spread in the starry night sky as if it was made from fragile ss.
Their expressions instantly turned pale in horror and panic!
"This is the worst! The secret realm is actually showing signs of copsing! But how could it be?! Is it also caused by the previous unknown creature that destroyed our space tunnel?!" Teacher Li Wei said in anger and frustration while gnashing his teeth.
But Instructor Mei Lan shook her head to deny Teacher Li Wei''s words and muttered her conclusion: "No... If I am not wrong... This time it should be caused by..."
Then Instructor Mei Lan stopped talking while staring suspiciously at Tang Li Xue.
The others might not know how destructive Tang Li Xue''s cultivation breakthrough and evolution process were, but Instructor Mei Lan was different from them.
She knew exactly how destructive Tang Li Xue would be every time she had a cultivation breakthrough or evolved further!
From her previous evolution to a demonic beast which created so muchmotion in Myriad Foxes Academy, and also her cultivation breakthrough to Core Formation Stage which created devastating lightning tribtion that almost burned down the center of Myriad Foxes Academy...
The question right now was why Tang Li Xue''s current evolution process to Beast Lord seemed so safe and peaceful?!
The answer was because the entire secret realm withstood the destructive tribtion in her ce!
It could be said that Tang Li Xue was extremely lucky since she did not need to face any life-threatening tribtion like in her previous evolution or cultivation breakthrough.
Well, maybe this happened because she was still under the effect of [Greater Lucky Sticker Buff], but anyway, this secret realm which had not received any maintenance for who knows how long clearly could not hold on for long under the bombardment of Tang Li Xue''s evolution tribtioning from outside!
Of course, Tang Li Xue herself still did not realize this fact yet until now, and she was still too busy withstanding the extremely unbearable pain and itchiness while praying that her evolution process would be over soon.
At this moment when everyone was staring at the cracked night sky in horror and panic, another uninvited guest actually appeared among them without anyone noticing it!
Yes, the strange creature shrouded in ck fog-like energy finally managed to track down Tang Li Xue''s location!
It was because of the previous meteor shower which was made from the condensed star energy that came toward Tang Li Xue and absorbed by her in the end!
The strange creature tracked the location where the meteor shower fell, and it finally found Tang Li Xue!
But the strange creature still did not make any move at all.
It was as if the strange creature was deliberately waiting for Tang Li Xue toplete her evolution first before it would devour her!
Chapter 875: Internal Conflict!
Chapter 875: Internal Conflict!
It only took a few moments for the countless cracks to cover the entire starry night sky like a cracked mirror.
Silly Fox, Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and the exploration team became more and more anxious when they saw that.
"Oh, no! We do not have much time left! We have to get out of this secret realm quickly before it copsespletely!" Teacher Li Wei shouted in a solemn tone.
"But... What about Little Xue?" Instructor Mei Lan nced at Tang Li Xue full of reluctance.
Tang Li Xue still had notpleted her evolution process yet.
On the contrary, she was currently at the critical moment of her evolution process to be a Beast Lord, so there was a high chance that her evolution would fail if they interrupted it at this moment!
So, Instructor Mei Lan was really in a huge dilemma right now.
If she forcefully dragged Tang Li Xue away at this time, Tang Li Xue''s evolution would probably have failed, but if she let Tang Li Xueplete her evolution first, they might no longer had enough time to run away from this copsing secret realm by then!
"Dummy Lan, what are you waiting for?! Do you really want your favorite student to die in this secret realm?!" Teacher Li Wei angrily rebuked Teacher Mei Lan.
"I know, but..." Instructor Mei Lan muttered while gnashing her pearl-white teeth.
Instructor Mei Lan wanted to argue that Tang Li Xue would surely receive violent bacsh if her evolution failed. At that time, not only did Tang Li Xue get grievously injured and crippled, but she might have a very high chance to stuck in her current grade forever and unable to evolve to a higher gradeter.
What was the difference between that and dying here?!
In Instructor Mei Lan''s opinion, the former might be worse than death!
When Instructor Mei Lan was still hesitating, Silly Fox already made his choice.
He stepped forward without any hesitation and tried to push Lucia and Little Loki away while shouting angrily at them: "Move aside! I will bring Little Xue out of here right now!"
However, Lucia and Little Loki refused to budge, and they even pushed Silly Fox away in annoyance.
Instructor Mei Lan also wanted to stop Silly Fox, but Silly Fox red coldly at Lucia and Little Loki instead, then said to them: "So what if Xue''s evolution failed here?! I swear I will definitely find a way to cure her and let her evolve further in the future!"
"But everything will only be possible if Xue is still alive!" Silly Fox murmured sadly.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and said: "It is not that easy. Countless beasts are unable to evolve further until the day they die after their evolution fails. This is also the reason why so many beasts choose to evolve into False Spirit Beasts rather instead of bing True Spirit Beasts."
"It is still much better than letting her die in this secret realm, right?" Teacher Li Wei argued impatiently.
"Even if Xue crippled, or she could no longer evolve after this... I will surely take responsibility for it! I will definitely never give up on her even if I must spend my entire life taking care of her and find a way to cure her!" Silly Fox resolutely spoke.
Silly Fox might not be good with his words, but everything he said was truly sincere.
Even Tang Li Xue would be moved if she heard his words right now.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue could not hear it in her current condition.
Instructor Mei Lan finally sighed in resignation before she stared at Little Loki and Lucia, then said to them: "Move away! We will take Little Xue out of this Secret Realm now!"
Silly Fox, Instructor Mei Lan, and Teacher Li Wei menacingly stepped forward to face Little Loki and Lucia.
Of course, Little Loki and Lucia would never back down even if they had to face Tang Li Xue''s teachers.
The situation instantly became really tense at this point!
Just when the conflict almost broke out, Little Loki''s body suddenly shuddered as its sharp sense of danger screamed in horror!
Little Loki carefully stared in the direction where it sensed the danger and saw an almost unnoticeable lump of ck fog behind the exploration team!
The lump of ck fog was clearly so bizarre, but strangely, no one actually noticed it until now!
The strange creature shrouded in ck fog still did not react. It was like the hunter who lurked on their prey right now!
Little Loki unconsciously took a step back and roared in the direction of the lump of ck fog!
"ROOOAAARR~!"
At first, everyone was still confused about Little Loki''s odd behavior, but they soon realized something was wrong.
It did not take long for them to be aware of the strange creature shrouded in ck fog which had appeared right behind them for who knows how long without them realizing it at all until now!
"What the heck is that thing?" Some of the ignorant foxes from the exploration team curiously muttered while trying to approach the ck fog.
"Get away from it~!" Teacher Li Wei shouted to warn them, but he was already one step toote.
The strange creature opened its mouth filled with sharp teeth widely and...
CHOMP~!
It actually bit the head of the ignorant fox and swallowed it in one bite!
Even [Vajra Protection Amulet], which should be able to protect them from the powerful attack at the False Spirit Beast Level, could not do anything to stop the strange creature''s bite!
"Tsk~!" Instructor Mei Lan clicked her tongue while snapping her slender fingers.
CLACK~!
[Sonic Blink]~!
Instructor Mei Lan''s slender figure vanished, and she instantly appeared near the strange creature.
Just when Instructor Mei Lan wanted to pull away the other foxes from the exploration team who were still near the strange creature, the strange creature could actually react much faster than Instructor Mei Lan expected!
The strange creature grabbed Instructor Mei Lan''s neck with one hand and slowly lifted her up until her feet could no longer touch the ground.
Instructor Mei Lan felt extremely suffocated, and even her consciousness was slowly fading away.
Instructor Mei Lan hastily raised her slender white palm, then the air around her slender white palm started to vibrate violently.
[Vibration Cutting de]~!
Bypressing her [Demonic Tune] divine ability to the extreme level, Instructor Mei Lan made the air around her palm vibrate so intensely.
Instructor Mei Lan swung her slender white palm toward the strange creature''s arm with the intention of cutting off the arm that was strangling her neck!
CLANG~!
But who knew that her [Vibration Cutting de] could not even leave any scratch on the strange creature''s arm?!
It felt as if she was trying to use a dull knife to cut a hard steel!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Instructor Mei Lan anxiously tried to cut the strange creature''s arm again and again, but it waspletely futile.
"Dummy Lan~!" Teacher Li Wei shouted in a worried tone when he realized how powerful the strange creature shrouded in ck fog was!
Teacher Li Wei took out dozens of spirit weapons in the form of ck nails from his space pouch and threw them at the strange creature!
These spirit weapons were called [Life Breaking Nails], and they were one of Teacher Li Wei''s trump cards which was powerful enough to even injure True Spirit Beast!
Unfortunately, these [Life Breaking Nails] were clearly far from enough to deal with the strange creature!
The strange creature did not even bother to pay any attention to Teacher Li Wei''s [Life Breaking Nails]. It only controlled the ck fog that wrapped its body until the ck fog spun, and the ck fog actually swallowed all of Teacher Li Wei''s [Life Breaking Nails] without leaving anything behind.
"No way! Even my [Life Breaking Nails] could not do anything to that creature?!" Teacher Li Wei eximed in shock and disbelief.
The rest of the exploration team took out their [Spirit Shattering Lightning Amulet] in fear and panic and threw it toward the strange creature at the same time!
Teacher Li Wei wanted to stop them since Instructor Mei Lan was still in the strange creature''s grasp, but unfortunately, it was already toote for that.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Each [Spirit Shattering Lightning Amulet] has a destructive power equal to the False Spirit Beast Level''s attack.
When more than a dozen of them exploded in unison, the explosion they caused was really devastating!
"No, Dummy Lan~!" Teacher Li Wei called in a worried tone.
But when the dust and smoke cleared up, only the strange creature shrouded in ck fog that was still stood there alonepletely unscathed, and Instructor Mei Lan could no longer be seen. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Teacher Li Wei''s heart instantly fell into despair.
Just as Teacher Li Wei really thought that Instructor Mei Lan had already died in that great explosion...
"Cough, cough, cough... I thought I was really going to die for real..." A feminine gentle sound suddenly resounded from behind Teacher Li Wei.
Teacher Li Wei quickly turned around and found that Instructor Mei Lan already sat weakly on the ground behind him.
Little Loki in its Battle Form who stood right beside Instructor Mei Lan snorted smugly.
Yes, it was actually Little Loki who saved Instructor Mei Lan right before those more than a dozen [Spirit Shattering Lightning Amulet] exploded by using its [Instant Teleportation].
Although Little Loki did not like Instructor Mei Lan, but she was still Tang Li Xue''s beloved teacher after all. So, it decided to save Instructor Mei Lan in the end at thest moment.
Chapter 876: The Most Desperate Situation!
Chapter 876: The Most Desperate Situation!
Strangely, the strange creature shrouded in ck fog did not seem to be angry or pissed off after it got its prey snatched by Little Loki and even got attacked by the exploration team.
The calmer this monstrous creature was, the stronger Little Loki''s bad feeling had be.
As the cub of the strongest evil beast, Little Loki could guess this monstrous creature''s mindset to a certain extent.
The strange creature was not angry at them probably because it never considered them as a threat since the very start.
Little Loki''s expression instantly turned bad when it realized that the strange creature was likely only toying with them to spend its time while waiting for something.
''Wait a second... Waiting for something? Waiting for what?!'' Little Loki''s bad hunch only got worse as time passed.
''Don''t tell me this bast*rd is...'' Little Loki thought in agitation as it nced at Tang Li Xue who was still undergoing her evolution on the cliff.
When Little Loki was still busily thinking, Teacher Li Wei had already taken out a stack of advanced talismans from his space pouch while ring at the strange and muttering coldly: "All right, we can finally stop holding back since it no longer holds Dummy Lan as a hostage. Everyone~! Let''s just bombard that creature to death!"
Teacher Li Wei and the foxes from the exploration team began to unleash all of their divine abilities, spirit weapons, talismans, amulets, and so on toward the strange creature!
BOOOOM~! BOOOOM~! BOOOOM~! BOOOOM~!
The strange creature was bombarded mercilessly by so many divine abilities, spirit weapons, talismans, and amulets for several minutes non-stop!
Little Loki and Lucia still did not n to make any rash move, and they still guarded Tang Li Xue closely.
Despite Teacher Li Wei''s side seeming to hold the absolute advantage at this point, Little Loki still did not feel optimistic about their chance to win against the strange creature.
Little Loki worriedly nced at Tang Li Xue again while silently praying that she would be able toplete her evolution safely as soon as possible before the strange creature lost its patience.
.....
At this time, Tang Li Xue''s current situation was actually not really that optimistic.
Her evolution had reached the critical point, but who knew that difficulty suddenly raised exponentially at this point?!
Just trying to withstand the extremely unbearable pain and itchiness while trying to bnce three kinds of energies was already almost driving Tang Li Xue insane, but now, those three kinds of energies seemed to get more and more violent as if they would go berserk at any moment!
It was like she was trying to bnce a three-way scale, but the weight of the three objects put on the three-way scale kept changing.
If she made even one tiny mistake or let her guard down which made the three-way scale out of bnce and overturned, then congrattions, her body would explode because of the berserking three kinds of energies!
Moreover, Tang Li Xue could guess that her evolution was stillcking one final step based on her previous evolution experience into an [Umon] Grade Beast.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs impatiently when she knew the situation outside from Little Loki and Lucia through their mind connection.
''Secret realm is already on the verge of copsing, and to make it worse, there is also a scary monster out there fighting against Teacher Li Wei and the others. No, I cannot continue to spend my time like this!'' Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she decided to speed up her evolution process and entered the final phase!
At this moment, the two moons and two suns in the sky which had formed two eclipses phenomenon actually fell down toward Tang Li Xue!
''Do you all really think I am afraid?! Come here and just let me ''eat'' you all!" Tang Li Xue bravely challenged the two moons and two suns in her mind.
These two moons and two suns might be only the phenomenon created by Tang Li Xue''s evolution, but they were clearly not a mere harmless illusion!
They were actually the extremely concentrated energy of the sun and moon!
If they really hit Tang Li Xue''s fragile furry body, she would definitely evaporate into nothingness!
But Tang Li Xue had already made enough preparation for this moment, so she was not afraid of dying because of them!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~~!!!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (0/3)]
Tang Li Xue''s heart almost jumped out of her chest when she saw her [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s three times deadly blow protection instantly consumed.
But she immediately understood the reason why her three chances of [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection got instantly consumed.
The first protection was undoubtedly used to resist the impact of the falling two suns and two moons.
The second protection was used when the two suns and two moons were converted into sun energy and moon energy which was absorbed into her body, but her fragile body was clearly not powerful enough to contain them and almost disintegrated.
After all, Tang Li Xue had already absorbed a huge amount of star energy before.
Absorbing another enormous amount of sun energy and moon energy was clearly too much for her tiny fragile body to bear!
Fortunately, the [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protection managed to temporarily help her ovee that life-threatening situation for now.
Thest third protection was used to resist the berserking three energies inside her body thatpletely went out of bnce and almost made her body explode from inside.
''It should be all right... I still have a few more life-saving trump cards.'' Tang Li Xue thought as she tried to calm herself down.
It would only make her situation a lot worse if she became panicky and lost her focus.
Despite that, the star energy, sun energy, and moon energy in Tang Li Xue''s body seemed to be much more frenzied and violent than before!
Just like three domineering dragons trapped in one cage, and no one wanted to submit to the others.
Tang Li Xue already tried her best to rein them all, but her current self was clearly too weak to control them as if she was only a rat... or rather a helpless small fox who was trying to manage three domineering dragons.
''You damned brats~! You are all in my body, so you have to obey me from now on!'' Tang Li Xue scolded and cursed them angrily in her mind.
Unfortunately, all of her efforts to bring the three energies under her control still failed.
The three kinds of energy that had already grown too powerful for Tang Li Xue to control were shing violently against each other inside Tang Li Xue''s body!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
*Ding!
[Detecting Host had received a life-threatening damage. [Damage Transfer] skill automatically activated and transferred all of your injuries and the damages you received to the perfect copy!]
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (2/3)]
Even though all of her injuries and the damages were transferred to her perfect copy through [Damage Transfer] skill, but the Tang Li Xue still spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood.
The reason was because the aftershock from the sh still managed to break some of her internal organs after the previous injuries and damages were transferred.
The golden sun mes that shrouded Tang Li Xue''s body got hotter and bigger as time passed!
The silvery frost also covered Tang Li Xue''s body as the bone-chilling coldness became colder and colder!
The glittering star energy which wrapped Tang Li Xue''s body like countless fireflies was getting more and more destructive and heavy!
At first, Tang Li Xue thought those troublemakers should not be a big problem after her [Imperial Moon Fox] bloodline and [Pure Sun Dragon] bloodline had be pure and powerful enough to contain them.
But she immediately realized that she was wrong...
The power of the star in her body actually began to condense the third bloodline!
These three different kinds of bloodlines werepletely ipatible with each other and even began to reject each other violently!
Three kinds of energy who were fighting against each other were already enough to make Tang Li Xue desperate, but now, even three different kinds of bloodlines were also joining the fun and fighting against each other inside her body!
''Oh, sh*t... It''s really over this time...'' Tang Li Xue muttered in despair inside her heart.
There was really no way that she could control those six at once!
.....
Meanwhile, the battle situation outside also changed for the worse!
After the merciless bombardment by Teacher Li Wei, Instructor Mei Lan, and the foxes from the exploration team failed to even injure the strange monstrous creature.
Teacher Li Wei, Instructor Mei Lan, and the foxes from the exploration team decided to cancel their Human Transfiguration and transform back to their fox form, so they could fight the monstrous creature with their full strength. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Unfortunately, the results did not match their expectations at all.
Not only they still did not manage to wound the monstrous creature, but the monstrous creature seemed to just let them hit itself as they liked before it killed them one by one in one bite.
More than a dozen foxes from the exploration team had already been eaten and be cold iplete corpses under the monstrous creature''s bites.
Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan finally realized that they did not stand a chance at all against this monstrous creature, and it was actually only toyed them all this time.
Chapter 877: Unexpected Help!
Chapter 877: Unexpected Help!
"This damn bast*rd!" Teacher Li Wei gnashed his teeth in anger and frustration while ring at the monstrous creature.
Teacher Li Wei had already thrown all of his advanced offense talismans, spirit weapons, divine abilities, and skills at the strange creature, but the strange creature still remainedpletely unaffected, and it did not even bother to dodge any of Teacher Li Wei''s attacks.
Instructor Mei Lan also no longer dared to make any rash move to attack the strange creature after her [Demonic Tune], [Heavenly Sound], and [Vibration Construct] failed to even leave any scratch on the strange creature''s body.
Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan realized that the reason why they were still alive right now was because the strange creature began to eat ording to the order from the weakest to the strongest.
The foxes from the exploration team were weaker than them, so the strange creature ate those foxes from the exploration team first one by one.
But there were only three foxes from the exploration team left at this moment, so it meant their turn to be eaten woulde really soon!
Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan nced at each other and nodded in understanding before they secretly took out the [Amulet of Teleportation] from their space pouch.
The three foxes from the exploration team also followed Teacher Li Wei''s secret instruction with telepathy and took out their [Amulet of Teleportation].
Since they knew that they did not have even the slightest chance of winning, then they nned to just escape from the strange creature instead.
Anyway, the secret realm would copse very soon, so they need to find a way to get out of this secret realm as soon as possible rather than wasting their time fighting against this monstrously powerful strange creature.
Unfortunately, they immediately stumped into a new trouble before they could do it!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM~~!!!
The two moons and two suns that formed two eclipses in the sky suddenly fell toward Tang Li Xue and caused an extremely huge explosion!
"No, Little Xue~!" Instructor Mei Lan shouted in an anxious and panicked tone, but it was already toote for her to save Tang Li Xue from the fallen moons and suns.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! BWOOOOOOSSH~!
The violent rolling shockwave pushed Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and the others more than a hundred meters away from Tang Li Xue''s location.
Even Lucia and Little Loki were not spared from it.
Only the strange creature shrouded in ck fog remained unaffected by it.
The strange creature stared intensely in Tang Li Xue''s direction with a hint of greed in its eyes as if it was watching how its favorite food was being made right now.
After a few breaths of time, the strange creature seemed to realize Tang Li Xue''s abnormal state, she seemed to be in deep trouble, and there was a high chance that her evolution would fail.
Despite that, there was still no trace of impatience or anxiety in the strange creature''s eyes.
The strange creature leisurely raised its hand and pointed its finger in Tang Li Xue''s direction.
Then some of the ck fog around the strange creature''s body was rushing toward Tang Li Xue!
There was thick smoke and dust everywhere covering everyone''s vision because of the explosion and the rolling shockwave, but they could still vaguely perceive what the strange creature did!
Lucia, Little Loki, and Instructor Mei Lan moved swiftly to block the ck fog before it could touch Tang Li Xue!
BAAANG~!
But the strange creature sent the three of them flying more than fifty meters with only one casual kick.
In the end, the ck fog still managed to reach Tang Li Xue and even blended with her body!
In fact, Little Loki wanted to use its [Instant Teleportation] to instantly teleport right in front of Tang Li Xue and block the ck fog, but unfortunately, there was too much interference around Tang Li Xue which was caused by her evolution that made Little Loki unable to use its [Instant Teleportation] around that environment.
Yaya who was the closest to Tang Li Xue at this time could not do anything to block the ck fog because she was too exhausted after spamming her [Healing Gust] so many times to Tang Li Xue in order to help Tang Li Xue recover her wounded body.
Despite already feeling very exhausted and even her consciousness had already be blurry, Yaya still kept using her [Healing Gust] on Tang Li Xue again and again without any intention to stop, so how could she do anything to stop the ck fog in her current condition?! Everyone''s hearts immediately fell to despair since they thought the strange creature had sessfully done something to harm Tang Li Xue.
But contrary to everyone''s expectations, the strange creature actually had no intention to hurt Tang Li Xue at this moment, it even gave Tang Li Xue a helping hand toplete her evolution instead!
Yes, the strange creature actually gave a part of its strength to Tang Li Xue in order to help her temporarily bring the rioting energies and bloodlines under control! n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
.....
A few moments ago before the ck fog merged with Tang Li Xue''s body.
*Ding!
[Detecting Host had received a life-threatening damage. [Damage Transfer] skill automatically activated and transferred all of your injuries and the damages you received to the perfect copy!]
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for your perfect copy! (0/3)]
Tang Li Xue became more and more panicked and anxious when she saw all of her and her perfect copy''s [Sun And Moon Aegis] deadly blow protections had already been consumed in only a few breaths of time.
Now, she only had her perfect copy''s life which could be sacrificed with [Damage Transfer] and 2 [Substitute Dolls] left.
In short, she only had three more extra lives right now.
Just when Tang Li Xue did not know what she had to do anymore at this point, she suddenly felt the overwhelming powerful energy seep into her body!
Tang Li Xue instantly felt really terrified!
Her body could not even withstand the three energies and three bloodlines that went on the rampage, but now, there was even the overwhelming powerful energy that joined the fight.
''You must be kidding with me, right?! What the heck are they trying to do?! Are they trying to y mahjong inside her body or what?!'' Tang Li Xue angrily cursed in her heart.
Who knows that this overwhelming powerful energy was actually helping her instead by suppressing the rampaging three energies and three bloodlines in her body?!
Tang Li Xue gasped in shock when she saw what had just happened.
''What kind of energy is this?! It could actually suppress the three energies and three bloodlines at once! What a powerful ck energy!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in amazement.
Before Tang Li Xue could think where the extremely powerful ck energy came from, a light of inspiration suddenly shed in her mind when she saw the ck energy, sun energy, moon energy, and star energy.
The scene in front of her eyes was so harmonious just like the eclipse in the middle of the starry night sky.
Tang Li Xue pped her forehead while thinking: ''Damn it~! I am really a big idiot! Why the hell do I always think about how to suppress and control them?! No wonder this evolution is so impossibly difficult! It was my mindset that was wrong since the very start!''
Yes, Tang Li Xue finally realized she had made a fatal mistake since the beginning!
She should never think about suppressing and controlling those three energies and three bloodlines.
Not even True Spirit Beasts could control the sun, moon, and stars in the sky with their strength, so how could Tang Li Xue with her current limited strength do it?!
Rather than suppressing and controlling, she should try to blend the three energies and three bloodlines with her body instead!
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she finally found the only solution to her problem.
She did not know yet where the extremely powerful ck energy came from, but she truly felt thankful for it because she could find a way to survive andplete her evolution because of it.
''Lucky Sticker Buff is really awesome~!'' Tang Li Xue muttered as she thought that it should be thanks to the effect of Lucky Sticker Buff.
Without any more dy, Tang Li Xue immediately tried her attempt to blend the three energies and the three bloodlines with her body.
But that idea was actually easier to say than done...
Tang Li Xue instantly got stumped since she still had no idea how to do it.
After a few moments of intense thinking until her brain almost fried, Tang Li Xue finally thought of an insane n.
Her insane n was to use thebination of [Energy Maniption], [Essence Devouring Technique], plus [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] to blend the three energies and the three bloodlines with her body!
[Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], [Energy Maniption], and [Essence Devouring Technique] could resonate perfectly with each other when she tried to save Xiao Hei before, so Tang Li Xue could only hope that she could replicate that scene this time.
Yin Yang energy became the basis of everything that gave birth to all energies and matters.
If she could use [Yin and Yang Diagram] to blend three energies and the three bloodlines with her body, the final results should not disappoint her!
Tang Li Xue hastily ran [Energy Maniption], [Essence Devouring Technique], plus [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form] simultaneously without any more hesitation.
Wow, it was truly unexpected help~! (>w<) Could Tang Li Xue''s insane n really seed?! We will see it in the next chapter!
Chapter 878: Giant Cocoon!
878 Chapter 878: Giant Cocoon!
Currently, Tang Li Xue has only learned the Profound Law of Heat and Cold from the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form].
Unfortunately, she was still far frompletely mastering the Profound Law of Heat and Cold, so it was impossible for her to form [Yin and Yang Diagram] without any external help.
She might have been able to use the [Yin and Yang Diagram] to save Xiao Hei before, but it was clearly not her own effort. It was mostly because of the help from Phoenix of Pride and Snake of Lust.
This time, Tang Li Xue also never nned to do everything alone.
Well... To be exact, she really did not have any confidence toplete it by herself, so she asked for some reliable helpers.
Phoenix of Pride''s position as the controller of the Profound Law of Heat and Yang diagram part was definitely irreceable.
As for the controller of the Profound Law of Cold and Yin diagram part, Tang Li Xue could only ask her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent], to rece the Snake of Lust''s position.
There was no need for Tang Li Xue to exin it to them, the Phoenix of Pride and [Golden Winged Serpent] instantly understood their respective role.
Both Phoenix of Pride and [Golden Winged Serpent] let Tang Li Xue blend them with [Energy Maniption], [Essence Devouring Technique], and [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form].
With Phoenix of Pride and [Golden Winged Serpent]''s help to control the Profound Law of Heat and Cold from the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], they cooperated with Tang Li Xue to integrate the three techniques to form [Yin and Yang Diagram].
Who knew that it was actually so much harder to do it than Tang Li Xue thought?!
Tang Li Xue clearly miscalcted how important the contribution of Snake of Lust and Xiao Hei''s physique was when she formed the [Yin and Yang Diagram] for the first time.
''Damn it~! Is there really no way for me toplete my evolution?!'' Tang Li Xue angrily thought in grief and frustration.
Just when Tang Li Xue almost thought to give up, the ck energy plus the three energies and three bloodlines actually rushed toward the iplete [Yin and Yang Diagram] instead!
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Tang Li Xue instantly becamepletely dumbfounded for a few moments until she almost lost her focus.
''What the heck is happening?! Is this good or bad? Damn it~! Whatever, I don''t care about anything anymore! Let''s just go with the flow and push it forward!'' Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she took this chance to focus on forming theplete [Yin and Yang Diagram] as soon as possible.
.....
Meanwhile, the situation outside had actually grown even more tense at this time!
''Dummy Lan, I will make this monster busy for a while. You can try to find a chance to grab Little Xue and bring everyone to get out of here as soon as possible. Do you understand?'' Teacher Li Wei said to Instructor Mei Lan with telepathy.
''But... what about you?'' Instructor Mei Lan reluctantly replied.
''So you do worry about me, Dummy Lan~!'' Teacher Li Weiughed while talking to Instructor Mei Lan in a teasing tone.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes as she rebuked Teacher Li Wei in an unhappy tone: ''Sissy Wei~! This is not the time to y around!'' n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
''You do not need to worry about me. I have my own way to save myself.'' Teacher Li Wei whispered back to Instructor Mei Lan in a reassuring tone.
''Okay, I get it.'' Instructor Mei Lan nodded at Teacher Li Wei with a firm expression.
Even though Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei had already transformed into their fox form, but they knew that they were still far too weakpared to the strange creature.
That was the reason why Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei did not hope much as they only nned to safely bring everyone to escape from the strange creature and exit this almost copsed secret realm as soon as possible.
Teacher Li Wei took out one of his trump cards which was several top-grade spirit weapons from his space pouch.
It was a set of flying swords that could form the Seven Star Formation to kill the enemy.
Under Teacher Li Wei''s control, those azure flying swords instantly surrounded the strange creature from all directions in the blink of an eye!
The other three foxes from the exploration team also helped Teacher Li Wei by unleashing their divine abilities toward the strange creature.
[Nether me Explosion]~!
[Wind Arrow Barrage]~!
[Shadow ying Spikes]~!
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
Then Teacher Li Wei''s azure flying swords shone brightly in unison as the string of light connected them with each other.
"[Seven Star Formation], go~! Trap that monster for me!" Teacher Li Wei uttered in a stern tone.
The connected seven azure flying swords stabbed into the ground and formed the prison of light that imprisoned the strange creature inside it!
Yes, Teacher Li Wei nned to just seal the strange creature for a while rather than trying to kill it!
However, the strange creature walked forward leisurely instead as if it did not see the prison of light formed by the seven azure flying swords.
WEEEEEENG~!
The seven azure flying swords were shining even more brightly when the strange creature''s body touched the prison of light!
"Sess~! That monster really cannot get out from there!" The foxes from the exploration team eximed happily.
But before they could be happy for long...
The strange creature already appeared right in front of them, and it swiftly grabbed the neck of the two foxes from the exploration team with each of its hands!
CHOMP~! CHOMP~!
Then the strange creature bit their heads off and swallowed them in one bite as if it was eating two ice creams in each of its hands.
BAAAAANG~!
Teacher Li Wei could not even react as he saw the prison of light copse and the seven azure flying swords shatter to pieces.
"No... Mo... Monster!" Thest fox from the exploration team finally screamed in fear and horror as she turned around and ran away as fast as she could.
She hastily took out the [Amulet of Teleportation] from her space pouch, but before she could use it, the strange creature instantly appeared right in front of her face and...
CHOMP~!
The strange creature also bit her head off and swallowed it.
The exploration team, which was gathered by Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan, had beenpletely wiped out at this moment.
"You damn monster..." Teacher Li Wei gnashed his fangs in rage as he menacingly red at the strange creature.
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan already took this chance to swiftly dash toward Tang Li Xue, but unfortunately, Lucia and Little Loki blocked her again before she could grab Tang Li Xue and bring her out of there.
"You two, do you know what you are doing?! At this rate, Little Xue will also get eaten by that monster..." Instructor Mei Lan was so pissed off that she scolded Lucia and Little Loki, but before she could finish her words, something unexpected happened right in front of her eyes.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The golden sun mes, silvery frost moon aura, and destructive glittering stars power that shrouded Tang Li Xue''s body suddenly spun violently before they solidified into a giant five-meter tall cocoon!
The giant cocoon''s color was one-third dazzling gold, one-third bright silver, and one-third like starry night sky. There was even a mysterious spinning Yin and Yang Diagram that appeared on the top of the giant cocoon.
The hovering giant cocoon kept rotating slowly on the copsed cliff.
Lucia, Little Loki, and Instructor Mei Lan were stunned silly when they saw what just happened.
"She actually managed to enter thest phase this fast?!" Instructor Mei Lan eximed in surprise.
Instructor Mei Lan hesitated again on whether she should just wait for a little longer until Tang Li Xue finished her evolution or should she just forcefully take Tang Li Xue away from here.
"Guargghh... Run... Lan..."
Instructor Mei Lan quickly turned around when she heard Teacher Li Wei''s miserable hoarse voice.
After eating all the foxes from the exploration team, the strange creature''s next target was undoubtedly among the four of them.
Teacher Li Wei still stubbornly tried to hold the strange creature with all of his might, but it was nothing more but a futile struggle in front of the extremely powerful strange creature who could even defeat both Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua at once.
The strange creature easily broke all of Teacher Li Wei''s resistance and grabbed his neck like its other prey.
"Sissy Wei! Damn it!" Instructor Mei Lan cried out as she rushed forward swiftly toward the strange creature to save Teacher Li Wei.
This time, even Lucia and Little Loki could no longer watch silently from the side while protecting Tang Li Xue.
They knew both Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei were extremely important people... or rather extremely important foxes in Tang Li Xue''s heart, so she would be really sad if any of them died under the strange creature''s hands.
Lucia activated her [Slow Motion] buff without any hesitation to increase her speed by many times, while Little Loki hastily used its [Instant Teleportation] to instantly appear behind the strange creature in order to save Teacher Li Wei.
[Demonic Tune] plus [Heavenly Sound]¡ [Fatal Vibration Strike]: 3rd echo~!
[de Feather shes]~!
[sh and sh] plus [Scythe w Qi]~!
BAAAAANG~! BOOOOOOOMM~! CLAAAANG~!
Instructor Mei Lan, Lucia, and Little Loki managed tond their attacks on the strange creature''s arm, so they could cut it and save the Teacher Li Wei from its grasp.
Who knew that even thebination of their powerful attacks still failed to break the strange creature''s arm?!
''Just how powerful is this monster?!'' Instructor Mei Lan, Lucia, and Little Loki thought at the same time.
When the three of them were busily fighting against the strange creature, no one realized yet that the color of the cocoon on the cliff actually was rapidly fading away.
All right, I know what are you all waiting for~! (>w<) The next chapter will be an exciting one, so don''t miss it!

Creator''s Thought
Chapter 879: Complete Evolution!
879 Chapter 879: Complete Evolution!
The strange creature could actually bite Teacher Li Wei''s head like all the foxes from the exploration team, but its attention seemed to be diverted towards Tang Li Xue when she transformed into a giant cocoon.
Despite Instructor Mei Lan, Little Loki, and Lucia fighting against it with all of their strength at this moment, the strange creature still did not take any of them seriously at all.
On the contrary, the strange creature got distracted and only focused all of its attention on the evolving Tang Li Xue instead.
The strange creature seemed to be using Instructor Mei Lan and the others as toys to pass the time while waiting for its ''favorite food'' to finish her evolution.
The strange creature''s behavior made Instructor Mei Lan, Little Loki, and Lucia fume in rage!
Lucia used her [Gigantification] ability to erge her body by ten times until she reached twenty meters tall.
With her body wrapped in silver armor made from [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl], Lucia looked really gant and cool.
Little Loki also did not want to lose as it unleashed its nine [Phantom Splitters] clones.
Little Loki and all of its nine [Phantom Splitters] clones in Battle Form also looked domineering.
Instructor Mei Lan in her fox form was very worried about Teacher Li Wei who was still in the strange creature''s grasp, so she was the first one thatunch her all-out attack on the strange creature in order to save Teacher Li Wei!
Instructor Mei Lan used her [Sonic Blink] again to instantly appear right above the strange creature and pped her paw on the strange creature''s head!
4th Echo... [Catastrophe]! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
BBOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Not only did the strange creature''s body sink into the ground, but even the ground under its feet crumbled away because of the extremely high vibration power caused by Instructor Mei Lan''s [Catastrophe]!
The strong earthquake shook the entire cliff.
The surrounding grasses, stones, and trees were turned to dust.
Even Little Loki and Lucia did not dare to rashly get close to Instructor Mei Lan and the strange creature at this moment.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Some parts of the cliff began to copse, and the extremely destructive vibration power spread until it created a more than twenty-meter-deep big crater.
Instructor Mei Lan instantly appeared right beside Little Loki and Lucia with her [Sonic Blink].
The good news was she finally managed to save Teacher Li Wei from the strange creature''s grasp.
But the bad news was...
"Cough, cough, cough... PUUUFF~!" Instructor Mei Lan coughed and spurted out so much blood from her mouth.
Just like before, the destructive power of her 4th Echo was too powerful for Instructor Mei Lan''s body to handle, so she suffered severe injuries even though she was only using it once.
It was the skill that dealt ten thousand of damage to her opponent, but she would also receive eight thousand of damage.
Currently, so many of her bones, veins, meridians, nerves, and muscles had shattered that she even had difficulty moving her body.
Teacher Li Wei''s condition was also not much better either.
The strange creature grabbed Teacher Li Wei''s neck very tightly until Instructor Mei Lan and the others could not pull him, so his neck should be broken now.
Not to mention that he also alreadypletely exhausted all of his energy to buy time for Instructor Mei Lan to run away before.
In short, both Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei hadpletely lost their strength to fight for now.
Little Loki hastily took out [Talisman of Regeneration +3] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2] from the space pouch hung on its neck, then used them on Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei.
But before they could take a breath...
BAAAAANG~!
The strange creature suddenly jumped out from the deep crater before it leisurely cracked its neck.
Despite receiving such a devastating blow from Instructor Mei Lan right on its head, the strange creature looked barely affected by it.
Little Loki and Lucia nced and nodded at each other in tacit understanding before they rushed swiftly toward the strange creature at the same time!
The strange creature did not even bother to look at any of them as it took another nce at the giant cocoon instead.
Right at this time, the color of the cocoon had faded away and turnedpletely white and smooth just like a giant white crystal egg.
It seemed Tang Li Xue''s evolution was almostplete, and she could break out from the cocoon really soon!
The strange creature squinted its eyes as the light of greed shone from the deepest part of its eyes became much more intense than before.
Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitter] clones unleashed [Scythe w Qi] in unison toward the strange creature''s neck!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Rather than hitting something made from flesh, their [Scythe w Qi] was like hitting an unbreakable metal pir instead!
Forget about cutting the strange creature''s neck, their one-point-focused attacks even failed to leave any scratch on it.
Meanwhile, the real Little Loki had secretly used its [Instant Teleportation] to appear right behind the strange creature''s back!
Then Little Loki immediately opened its mouth widely...
[Heaven Devour]~!
The space around Little Loki instantly became distorted as Little Loki opened its [Heaven Devour] in full power in order to swallow the strange creature!
Unfortunately, the strange creature''s feet were still rooted to the ground, and it was not get sucked by Little Loki''s [Heaven Devour].
Lucia had already unleashed the [Golden Light Spell] and [Golden Vajra Shield] to cover and protect her entire body.
Right at this moment, Lucia flew with her full speed as she deliberately crashed her body heavily against the strange creature!
BAAAAAAAAANG~!
Lucia''s intention was to forcefully push the strange creature into Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour], so Little Loki could swallow the strange creature in one gulp!
Their n should be perfect.
If the strange creature had notpletely digested the Star Essence it extracted from [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] so its strength had not mostly recovered,bined with how it looked down on all of them too much and totally let down its guard, they might have already seeded by now.
Regrettably, the strange creature''s strength clearly had already recovered right now afterpletely digesting the Star Essence, so the strange creature only needed to raise one of its hands to stop Lucia in a rxed manner.
Even though Lucia used a headbutt to crash heavily into the strange creature with all of her strength and full speed, it was still easily stopped by the strange creature with only one hand!
No matter how hard Lucia tried to push the strange creature, it still remained steady without even taking a step back.
BAAAANG~!
Then the strange creature used a backheel kick to strike Little Loki''s chin heavily like a hammer!
The strange creature''s backheel kick managed to forcefully cancel Little Loki''s [Heaven''s Devour], and Little Loki was even thrown off more than fifty meters before it crashed into several boulders and trees.
Lucia swiftly unleashed the flurrybos of her [de Feather shes], [Rapid Pecks], and [Tearing ws] on the strange creature''s head!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
Well... It did not affect the strange creature at all, but it seemed to make it a bit pissed off instead.
The strange creature pulled its head backward a little bit...
BOOOOOOMM~!
Yes, the strange creature actually used its head to hit Lucia''s head when she pecked the strange creature''s face.
Lucia''s head was so painful and dizzy as if her head was hit by a flying meteor, and she staggered backward.
The strange creature used a front kick to kick Lucia dozens of meters away until she fell down from the cliff.
Then Little Loki''s nine [Phantom Splitters] clones dashed toward the strange creature to attack it from all directions, but the strange creature took a deep breath...
"ROOOOOOAAAAAAARRR~!"
With one earth-shattering loud roar, all of Little Loki''s [Phantom Splitters] clones actually exploded into ck mist at once!
The strange creature looked around boredly for a few moments, but it failed to find other ''toys'' for it to y with.
So, the strange creature walked slowly toward Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan who were still passed out.
The strange creature grabbed Instructor Mei Lan and brought her to its mouth.
But when the strange creature opened its mouth to bite Instructor Mei Lan''s head...
BAAAAAAAAANG~!
The strange creature actually got hit heavily by something until it flew dozens of meters and crashed into several boulders.
It was truly a surprising scene since even Lucia and Little Loki failed to force the strange creature to move even one step before, but the strange creature could actually get hit until it flew right now!
What was even more surprising was that the one who had knocked the strange creature flying was actually a silvery furry tail that had emerged from the cocoon!
The previous cocoon which was so white and smooth just like a giant white crystal egg already turnedpletely grey at this moment.
Crack... Crack... Crack... BAAAAANGGGG~~!!!
Finally, the countless cracks started to spread on the grey cocoon''s surface, and it shattered to dust revealing a figure enveloped by brilliant golden light, silvery-white light, and colorful starry light inside it.
*Ding!

Massive amounts of spiritual energy from the entire secret realm instantly poured into Tang Li Xue''s body until it created a huge vortex!
When Tang Li Xue slowly opened her eyes, there was a scene of the beautiful starry sky with an eclipse in her eyes.
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
The countless cracks all around the entire secret realm began to copse right at this moment!
It seems the awakening of Tang Li Xue''s Regalia of Celestial Sky''s 3rd Power hastened the copse of this secret realm instead!
All right, Tang Li Xue''s evolution was finally over~! (>w<) We will see how powerful she has be in the next chapter, so don''t miss it~!

About all the peoplementing TLX leaving the academy now she got so strong, don''t see why you''d say that. Mei Lan might be weaker now, but TLX can still learn a whole lot from her, TLX would be raw power, with medicore level of skill and control vs Mei Lan''s very refined strength. Besides that there''s learning talisman / array making with Li Wei. And let''s not forget training the ying-yang form, energy maniption and devouring technique. TLX got plenty of things to do and in no hurry to leave. My guess is she''ll apany Mei Lan when she leaves for the central continent ;)
So instead of Imperial grade she is celestial grade? Also instead of 3 seperate bloodlines she actually fused them all into one? Forget Ancient grade, she probably in the divine realm levels of strength. Who will even be able to stand up to her now in the lightwind continent? She might need to go to the Northern Continent to actually have a challenge now
This chapter is burning hot with discussion!
Chapter 880: Collapsing Secret Realm!
880 Chapter 880: Copsing Secret Realm!
The sky of the secret realm was shattered like a mirror and began to fall apart!
Just like a broken-up jigsaw puzzle, the shattered space fragments of the secret realm gradually fell down from the sky piece by piece.
"Damn it~! This is not looking good at all!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a solemn expression.
When she focused on looking at the shattered sky, the six tails behind her slowly merged.
Two golden sun me tails fused into one, but the size became bigger and hotter.
Two silvery frost moon tails also fused into one, and even thest two dark but glittering tails like the starry night sky merged into one too.
In the end, Tang Li Xue only has three tails with different colors right now.
Tang Li Xue did not even realize what had happened to her tails since there were too many things she had to think about and do as soon as possible.
First, Tang Li Xue nced at Yaya who had fallen asleep on the ground right beside her because of great exhaustion after she spammed [Healing Gust] non-stop to help Tang Li Xue pass the most dangerous period of her evolution before.
"Thank you very much, Yaya~! You can take a rest with ease now." Tang Li Xue smiled as she patted Yaya''s tiny head gently with her paw before she carefully put Yaya into the windy mountain area inside her Dantian Space.
Then Tang Li Xue looked around to find Lucia and Little Loki, but she saw Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan who was still passed out nearby instead.
When Tang Li Xue trotted toward them, the strange creature had already stood up again.
"Kehehehehe..." The strange creature greedily stared at Tang Li Xue andughed creepily.
Tang Li Xue''s body instantly stiffened and trembled slightly when she saw the eerie strange creature.
Before Tang Li Xue could react, the strange creature suddenly rushed toward the unconscious Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan!
"How dare you..." Tang Li Xue shouted in anger as she hastily used [Wind Burst Step] to dash toward the unconscious Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan too, but unfortunately, she was still a half-step toote.
But right before the strange creature could touch Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan...
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The destructive ck lightning might not be enough to harm the strange creature, but it managed to stop the strange creature''s movement for one breath.
Tang Li Xue immediately took this chance to grab Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan with her tails while unleashing her [Tiger Roaring sh] toward the strange creature!
ROOOOOAAAARRR~!
An imposing image of a fierce White Tiger appeared behind Tang Li Xue, and the fierce White Tiger let out a deafening angry roar as it struck the strange creature with its ws!
BAAAAAANG~!
Tang Li Xue''s current strength had improved so muchpared to before she evolved into [Rare] Grade Beast, so naturally, her current [Tiger Roaring sh] had also be many times more powerful than before!
The strange creature was caughtpletely off guard once again, and it was thrown off dozens of meters until it crashed heavily onto several boulders.
Right at this moment, a ck silhouette shed toward Tang Li Xue from behind!
Tang Li Xue almost reflexively kicked the ck silhouette, but she immediately stopped the urge after she sensed a familiar aura from it.
"Xue~! Thank goodness you have managed your evolution safely!" The masculine voice shouted at Tang Li Xue excitedly.
Yes, the ck silhouette was actually Silly Fox!
Moreover, Silly Fox also brought the injured Lucia with him.
"Lucia~!" Tang Li Xue worriedly checked Lucia''s injuries.
She sighed in relief after making sure that Lucia was all right.
Only Lucia''s wings were broken when she previously tried to block the strange creature''s powerful kick with her wings.
Even Lucia''s silver armor made from [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl] plus the protection from [Golden Light Spell] and [Golden Vajra Shield] could notpletely block the strange creature''s powerful kick.
Tang Li Xue''s expression turned solemn when she discovered how powerful the strange creature was.
She also realized that the strange creature should not take her seriously and only y around with her until now, or it should be impossible for her to beat up the strange creature so easily just now.
After using her [Talisman of Regeneration +3] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2] to Lucia, Teacher Li Wei, and Instructor Mei Lan, Tang Li Xue red at Silly Fox and questioned him suspiciously in a cold tone: "Where have you been all this time? Don''t tell me that you had run away and hid alone all this time?!"
Silly Fox frantically shook his head to deny it and desperately tried to exin to Tang Li Xue: "Of course not~! How could I run away and hide alone?! I..."
Silly Fox blushed in shame, but he still decided to honestly tell Tang Li Xue what had happened to him before: "I fought against that monster together with the foxes from the exploration team, but we got defeated one by one. I got kicked hard by that monster until I fell down from the cliff and fell unconscious."
Silly Fox did not want Tang Li Xue to look down on him, so he quickly added while patting his chest: "But don''t worry, Xue~! I lost to that monster because I let down my guard before. This time, I will definitely be able to beat it up to death!"
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes when she heard Silly Fox''s blind confidence words.
Even Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan together with Lucia and Little Loki could not defeat that strange creature, so how could you, a mere Silly Fox, defeat it alone?!
But Tang Li Xue did not bother to argue or scold Silly Fox about it since this was clearly not the right time to joke around.
Just as Tang Li Xue went silent to think about what she had to do next carefully, Silly Fox thought Tang Li Xue was angry and disappointed in him instead.
His guilt was magnified many times when he saw all of the foxes from the exploration team had been ughtered, and their iplete bodies were scattered everywhere, even Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan had already been injured and passed out at this time.
"I am sorry, Xue... If only I..." Before Silly Fox could finish his regretful words, Tang Li Xue immediately interrupted him halfway.
Tang Li Xue patted Silly Fox''s shoulder with her paw and even praised him generously: "No, you are doing a good job~! If you keep staying with them before, you might have already lost your life right now."
"Xue~! But I..." Silly Fox wanted to talk again, but Tang Li Xue threw the unconscious Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan at him instead.
"All right, this is not the time for us to talk. Look here~! There is still an extremely powerful monster here, and the secret realm has already begun to copse. At this rate, we all are really going to die here!" Tang Li Xue muttered to Silly Fox in a solemn tone.
"I understand, then let me face that..." Silly Fox stepped forward bravely, but Tang Li Xue pulled him back again instead.
"No, you cannot!" Tang Li Xue shook her head.
"Why?!" Silly Fox asked in an unconvinced tone. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath before she exined it shortly to Silly Fox: "That monster''s main target is clearly me, so it will definitely chase me no matter where I run. That is the reason why only you can bring Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Lan safely out of this ce. Do you understand?"
Silly Fox opened his mouth and wanted to argue with Tang Li Xue, but the strange creature had already stood up and walked toward them leisurely again.
"Kuhehehehe~!" The strange creature still greedily stared at Tang Li Xue as usual while letting out creepyughter.
"GO~!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she pushed Silly Fox away.
Silly Fox was still standing there stupidly while kept staring at Tang Li Xue with a pair of eyes filled with unwillingness.
"You stupid bast*rd, do you really want everyone to be buried in this ce together?!" Tang Li Xue scolded Silly Fox in a cold tone.
Silly Fox gnashed his fangs as he wrapped his tails around Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Lan before he dashed away while shouting: "Please hold on for a while, Xue~! I will surelye back here to pick you up after I bring them out to a safe ce!"
Tang Li Xue chuckled while muttering: "Don''te back, stupid~! Do you think I really need your help to bring me out of here?!"
Just like Tang Li Xue had expected, the strange creature seemed to look a bit pissed off when it saw its few toys had run away, but it did not bother to chase after them since its main favorite dish was still here.
Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief when she saw the strange creature did not chase after Silly Fox and the others.
"All right, you monster~! I know you want to eat me so badly, soe and get it!" Tang Li Xue waved her paw smugly to provoke the strange creature.
Despite that, Tang Li Xue''s eyes were still busily looking around to look for the missing Little Loki.
It did not take long for her to find Little Loki, and it seemed Little Loki was also injured by the strange creature''s kick and could not move for now.
Even Lucia''s extremely tough wings were shattered by the strange creature''s super strong kick, so Little Loki should be in a worse condition since itnded a kick at Little Loki''s chin and neck before.
This situation did not look good for Tang Li Xue! (>w<) We will see if she could win against the strange creature and get out of the secret realm in the next chapter, so don''t miss it~!

Chapter 881: Urgent Evacuation!
881 Chapter 881: Urgent Evacuation!
Tang Li Xue immediately used her [Wind Burst Step] to approach the injured Little Loki, but the strange creature also moved swiftly toward Tang Li Xue!
Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance, but she did not dare to face the strange creature head-on because she could already guess how powerful the strange creature was, so she decided to use [Twin Moons] to summon out her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue dashed toward Little Loki, while her perfect copy blocked the strange creature, so it would not be able to get close to Tang Li Xue and Little Loki.
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
The perfect copy pped her paw at the strange creature, and the strange creature punched its fist forward to meet the perfect copy''s attack!
BAAAAAANG~!
The strange creature''s movement only halted for a moment when their strike shed head-on, while Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy was thrown back dozens of meters, but she was still able to somersault several times in mid-air andnd gracefully on the ground in the end.
"Woah~! So, this is my new body?! So strong~! So cool~! Uwehehehe, I already fall in love with it!" Tang Li Xue''s perfect copy eximed in joy and amazement.
The real Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes when she heard her perfect copy''s words.
"Stop ying around and be more serious! That monster is super strong, and we must get out of this secret realm as soon as possible before itpletely copses!" Tang Li Xue scolded her perfect copy while checking Little Loki''s condition.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had guessed, Little Loki''s chin and neck were broken by the strange creature''s extremely powerful kick, but this kind of injury was far from fatal for Little Loki.
Little Loki might only need some time topletely recover from it, so Tang Li Xue took out [Talisman of Regeneration +3] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery +2] from her space pouch, then used them on Little Loki.
Tang Li Xue smiled while caressing Little Loki''s head gently: "Thank you very much for protecting me, Little Loki. You can take a rest now, and leave the rest to me."
After hearing Tang Li Xue''s gentle words, Little Loki purred as it canceled its battle form and returned back to its kitten form.
Tang Li Xue carefully put Little Loki into her Dantian Space right beside the sleeping Yaya.
With this, there was only the strange creature and Tang Li Xue in this ce.
Tang Li Xue red coldly at the strange creature, while the strange creature still greedily stared at Tang Li Xue and sometimes let out its creepyugh in excitement.
''Now what?! Should we do our usual ''swap and run'' tactic?'' The perfect copy whispered to Tang Li Xue through their mind connection.
''No, we can''t run away from this monster! At least, not until Silly Fox brings Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei out of this secret realm.'' Tang Li Xue quickly rejected her perfect copy''s suggestion.
''Sigh... I know you would definitely say that. I do not want to dampen our spirits just afterpleting our evolution, but this monster is clearly too much for us to handle. Almost all of the bones in my paw shattered in the previous collision, and that monster is not even fighting seriously yet.'' The perfect copy warned Tang Li Xue in a solemn tone.
Fortunately, it only took a few moments for the perfect copy topletely recover with her [High-Speed Regeneration] plus [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s health recovery boost.
''I know that, but we still have to buy some time for others, at least until... Damn it, here ites~!'' Before Tang Li Xue could finish her discussion with her perfect copy, the strange creature already swiftly rushed toward her again!
Tang Li Xue reflexively wanted to use [Tiger Roaring sh] to hit the strange creature, but golden sun mes and deep blue mes were also unleashed along with it.
This made Tang Li Xue identally use a skill that she had not used for a long time.
[me Tiger Roaring ws]~!
A huge image of the White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes and golden sun mes was condensed behind Tang Li Xue and roared into the sky!
"RROOOOOOAAARRR~!"
The extremely high temperature was spreading as the huge White Tiger shrouded in two kinds of mes swung its me ws toward the iing strange creature!
BOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue''s [me Tiger Roaring ws] shed head-on violently against the strange creature''s ws which shrouded in ck fog-like energy!
Surprisingly, both Tang Li Xue and the strange creature were thrown off more than fifty meters from each other this time!
Then Tang Li Xue muttered while blushing in embarrassment: "Oh, right... I almost forgot that I am still in the [Perfect Assimtion Mode] with the dumb bird."
The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and retorted in her mind: ''Almost forgot you said?! You clearly already forgot about itpletely, okay?!''
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy already knew that this strange creature was extremely powerful, and it only toyed around with them right now.
But both of them thought they still had some chance of winning as long as they were willing to go all out to fight against it. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
08:19
If they knew that the strange creature even toyed with two extremely powerful True Spirit Beasts like Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua until the two of them almost got killed by it, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy would surely take the strange creature even more seriously as if they were facing the almighty Bookkeeper right now.
.....
When Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were busily fighting against the strange creature, Silly Fox was still running at his full speed after activating his [Blood Burst] and [Blood Ignition]''s twenty times amplification.
With lightning speed, he ran across the valley, mountain, river, andke with the unconscious Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan on his back.
Despite that, his mind was still thinking about Tang Li Xue''s safety all this time, and he really wanted to go back so badly, then forcefully drag Tang Li Xue to run away with him.
Fortunately, his mind was still calm and rational.
Silly Fox already understood the abilities of Tang Li Xue''s [Twin Moons] after being on the same team for one year or so and having trained together so many times.
He knew that Tang Li Xue could actually run away so much easier with her [Twin Moons]''s abilities if she was alone.
On the contrary, he would only be Tang Li Xue''s burden if he stayed there and refused to leave since they would have to protect the unconscious Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei from the strange creature''s attack.
"Damn it~! I really hate how weak and useless I am! If I am powerful enough to defeat that monster, all of these would not happen!" Silly Fox gnashed his fangs full of anger and disappointment at himself.
He swore that he would train so much harder without rest in order to get stronger after all of this was over.
Just when Silly Fox was running forward blindly without any destination to go, someone actually spotted him from afar and came swiftly toward him first!
Silly Fox immediately raised his guard to the maximum!
"Hey, you~! What happened to them? Are they all right?" A feminine voice asked in a worried tone.
Silly Fox widened his eyes in surprise when he saw that it was actually someone familiar.
Yes, Silly Fox actually met with Zhu Zhenhua!
Or rather... It should be Zhu Zhenhua who found Silly Fox.
"It is you~!" Silly Fox was extremely happy and excited since he thought Zhu Zhenhua, as the True Spirit Beast, should be able to defeat the strange creature and save Tang Li Xue, then bring all of them out from this secret realm as soon as possible.
Contrary to Silly Fox''s expectation, Zhu Zhenhua''s face turned pale when she heard Silly Fox and the others meet with the strange creature before and even fight against it.
"I still remember Xue''s location! Let''s go quickly before it is toote!" Silly Fox anxiously said to Zhu Zhenhua as he turned around to lead Zhu Zhenhua toward Tang Li Xue and the strange creature.
"No, wait a minute..." But Zhu Zhenhua actually stopped Silly Fox.
Silly Fox nced at Zhu Zhenhua as he suddenly had a bad feeling.
"This secret realm has already begun to copse, so we do not have much time anymore." Zhu Zhenhua reluctantly said to Silly Fox.
"I already know about that, so?" Silly Fox asked as his expression turned cold.
"My dad¡ I mean Exploration Chief is currently trying to rebuild and re-connect the space tunnel as soon as possible, while my task is to find the rest of my team and evacuate them all to that ce. I am really sorry... But I cannot waste my time to fight against that monster." Zhu Zhenhua honestly exined to Silly Fox.
Even though the strange creature had ughtered the foxes from the exploration team that was with Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei before, but there were still many of them scattered around this secret realm.
Between saving one fox (Tang Li Xue), or saving many foxes from the exploration team...
Zhu Zhenhua clearly chose thetter!
Not to mention that she and Zhu Jun could not even defeat the strange creature together before, so she would definitely lose even more badly if she tried to fight against it alone.
If she really tried to save Tang Li Xue from the strange creature, there was a high probability that she would not only fail but also get killed together with Tang Li Xue.
Rather than doing something suicidal like that, it was actually not wrong for Zhu Zhenhua to choose to save the other foxes from the exploration team instead.
"I see, so you want to abandon Xue?!" Silly Fox shouted in a great rage and resentment.
Zhu Zhenhua shook her head and replied in a helpless tone: "I also do not have any other choice right now. I clearly cannot abandon so many foxes from my team just to save your friend, right?"
Silly Fox took a deep breath to calm down his anger before he threw the unconscious Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan onto Zhu Zhenhua.
"You can take them to the safe ce first. Since you do not want to help Xue, then I will go back alone to save her!" Silly Fox said to Zhu Zhenhua.
"No, wait a second!" Who knew that Zhu Zhenhua actually stopped Silly Fox for the second time?!
"What again?!" Silly Fox coldly asked in an annoyed tone.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The extremely powerful pressure suddenly burst out from Zhu Zhenhua''s slender body!
"I have to apologize again to you, but I cannot let you go back there just to throw your own life away." Zhu Zhenhua murmured to Silly Fox in a firmmanding tone.
Urgh, I knew Zhu Zhenhua''s choice should be the right one, but... but... Oh, well~! We could only see what would happen in the next chapter, so don''t miss it~! (>w<)

speaking of book keeper its gunna be interesting to see what happens with Tang Li Xu once she go back to the academy. What are the odds that she gets summoned in the library right of the bat?
Probably not right off the bat but the book keeper will 100% make an appearance after this arc because the book keeper did some memory maniption at the start of the arc. So we still need to see the result of that and where is mc ticket.
You''ve arrived at thetest chapter!
Chapter 882: Space Fragments And Void Space!
Chapter 882: Space Fragments And Void Space!
Silly Fox became extremely angry when he heard Zhu Zhenhua''s words.
"You damn annoying bit*h~! It is okay that you do not want to save Xue because it is your right, but you even want to stop me from going back to save Xue too?! Who do you think you are?!" Silly Fox roared while gritting his fangs in great rage.
Zhu Zhenhua did not bother to argue with Silly Fox anymore since her time was very tight right now.
A one-hundred-meter-tall four-tail icy blue fox avatar that emitted an unbearable cold aura suddenly appeared right behind Zhu Zhenhua!
Silly Fox also activated his [Blood Burst] and [Blood Ignition]''s twenty times amplification.
Then he unleashed his [Destructive Force] plus [Lightning of Destruction] toward Zhu Zhenhua!
BAAAAAAANG~!
Zhu Zhenhua''s icy blue fox avatar easily blocked Silly Fox''s fierce attack using its tails.
But that fierce attack was actually only to distract Zhu Zhenhua because Silly Fox already turned around and ran back toward Tang Li Xue''s direction with his full speed!
Silly Fox''s ck furry body was covered in ck lightning as his sprinting speed increased further again by many times as if he had be the incarnation of ck lightning himself!
If he faced the other opponents, they might not be able to catch up to him anymore, but unfortunately, his current opponent was Zhu Zhenhua.
[Hundred Miles Frost Seal]~!
BWOOOOSSSH~!
In the blink of an eye, everything around Zhu Zhenhua was covered in a thickyer of white frost as if everything around her was made from ice.
Even Silly Fox and the ck lightning shrouded his body were frozen and sealed in the thickyer of ice until he could no longer move.
Zhu Zhenhua took the frozen Silly Fox along with the unconscious Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan with her as she ran toward the jungle.
There were actually several foxes from the exploration team which Zhu Zhenhua had already gathered there now.
"Are they all right?" One of the exploration team''s foxes asked worriedly mixed with curiosity.
Zhu Zhenhua shook her head and replied: "They are all right. Let''s go! We have to find the others before we can go back and get out of this copsing secret realm."
Zhu Zhenhua hastily led them again to gather the other foxes before Zhu Junpleted the space tunnel.
Because the moment Zhu Junpleted rebuilding the space tunnel and re-connecting it with the space tunnel outside, it would be the moment when they had to get out of this ce as soon as possible before this secret realmpletely copsed!
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue''s situation was actually increasingly bad as she was fighting against the strange creature with her perfect copy.
[Fire Bomb]~!
BOOOOOOMM~!
Tang Li Xue threw a deep bluepressed [Fire Bomb] at the strange creature, but it easily blocked it by condensing its ck fog-like energy into a solid ck shield.
But her perfect copy suddenly appeared right behind the strange creature after canceling her [Ethereal Form] plus [Art of Concealment]!
Then she unleashed [Moon Shattering Strike] with her full strength toward the back of the strange creature''s head from behind!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy discussed and concluded that this strange creature should have something like ''copper skin and iron bones'', so they decided to attack from ''inside''.
[Moon Shattering Strike] was clearly a good choice for it since it basically injected her energy into the opponent''s body and exploded the energy from inside.
BAAAAAANGG~!
"Sess~! Its brain should have already turned into a mush right now!" The perfect copy eximed happily.
Who knew that the strange creature was stillpletely unaffected after the perfect copy''s full-powered [Moon Shattering Strike] hit the back of its head heavily?!
On the contrary, it stretched its hand swiftly and managed to grab the perfect copy''s neck instead!
But Tang Li Xue immediately reacted by un-summoning her perfect copy and re-summoning her perfect copy right by her side.
The strange creature found its hand was empty, then it confusedly stared at Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy who already stood side by side.
"Kehehehe..." The strange creature let out its creepyugh as some of its ck fog-like energy suddenly separated from its body.
Then the ck fog-like energy was actually solidified into another identical strange creature!
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Perfect Copy: "???!!!"
"Damn it~! Don''t tell me that monster can also summon out a perfect clone?! No way, right?! Is it actually learning from us?!" Perfect Copy muttered in shock while frowning deeply.
"Watch out~! They areing!" Tang Li Xue warned her perfect copy when she saw the two identical strange creatures dashed toward them.
Tang Li Xue hastily condensed [Phoenix Cloak], and a pair of deep blue and gold me phoenix wings formed behind her back.
[Scattered me Feathers]~!
Tang Li Xue rapidly pped the me phoenix wings on her back to shoot so many explosive me feathers at the iing two strange creatures!
BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~!
Dense deep blue me and golden me feathers exploded when they hit the two strange creatures!
Despite that, the two strange creatures remainedpletely unaffected by it, and even their speed did not slow down at all!
Just when the two strange creatures almost reached Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy, who knew that they suddenly halted their steps and jumped back instead?!
"Wha..." Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise and puzzlement.
But before she could think of the reason why the two strange creatures acted like that, her [Extrasensory Perception] screamed to warn her of the iing life-threatening danger!
The danger warning was so intense that all the furs on her body stood up!
Tang Li Xue instantly used [Shadow sh] to teleport away from that location without any hesitation while un-summoning her perfect copy with [Twin Moons] divine ability!
BAAAAAAAAANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue, who was already teleported to the shadow below the tree a hundred meters away from her previous location, saw a transparent fragment that fell down from the shattered sky actuallynded on where she stood before!
When the falling transparent fragment touched the ground, the ground actually shattered like a mirror, leaving a strange pitch-ck hole in that location.
That hole was not like a usual crater created if someone exploded something, but more like missing a piece in the jigsaw puzzle.
Tang Li Xue nervously gulped her saliva and muttered: "What the heck is that?!"
[It should be a space fragment that fell from the shattered part of this Secret Realm.]
[Host should never touch it because it is extremely dangerous.]
[Each space fragment contains a small space broken from this Secret Realm, so if it touched any part of the Host''s body, it would be the same as that part of the body being momentarily teleported to another space.]
It was really rare for her System to kindly remind Tang Li Xue about something which showed how dangerous this space fragment was.
Tang Li Xue did not quite understand it yet, so she asked again: "What do you mean? So, it would only teleport me to another ce when I touched it? It does not sound that dangerous, right?"
[Imagine if a space fragment touched Host''s head just now, and Host''s head got teleported into the small space inside the space fragment while Host''s body was still in this current space.]
"Holy cow, does it mean my head will be separated from my body?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in horror.
[Actually, it should be much worse than that, but it could be said that was what would roughly happen.] n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
[Besides that, please make sure that Host never falls into that hole too, or Host would definitely die even if Host had hundreds of Substitution Dolls.]
"Do you mean that scary ck hole? What the heck is that?" Tang Li Xue asked curiously.
[That is Void Space.]
[It is hard to exin in a few sentences. In short, Void Space is probably like the ocean, all realms are like inds, while this copsing Secret Realm is like a sinking ind.]
[Void Space is extremely dangerous!]
[Anyone who fell into Void Space was like the newborn babies that appeared in the sea at a depth of 10,000 meters, they would get crushed into nothingness by the destructive space energy in an instant.]
[The Void Space''s danger level is actually so much higher than just that kind of example, and it is clearly a ce without lives, but Host gets what it means, right?]
"So, it means if this Secret Realmpletely copses, we will fall into this Void Space?"
[Not really... Once this Secret Realmpletely copses, the Host can either get torn and crushed by the countless falling space fragments or fall into Void Space. Anyway, both arepletely dead ends without any way to survive, so this System suggests that Host should just find a way out from this ce as soon as possible before those happen.]
"It is easy for you to say that~! I would have already done so if this monster had not pestered me so persistently until now!" Tang Li Xue angrily said in frustration.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The strange creature''s aura suddenly got many times stronger as a massive amount of ck energy burst out from its body!
Even its clone was already transformed back to ck energy and merged again with the strange creature''s main body.
"Sigh... It looks like that monster also knows that we have almost run out of time and decided to get serious now." Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she muttered in a solemn tone.
Chapter 883: Glimpse Into The Truth!
Chapter 883: Glimpse Into The Truth!
Tang Li Xue became really uneasy when she sensed the strange creature''s oppressive aura had gotten several times more powerful.
Despite that, the strange creature still gave Tang Li Xue a bottomless feeling like she was staring into an abyss.
Tang Li Xue had a hunch that even the strength it was currently showing should still be far from its full strength.
Just as she was still thinking about her next move whether she should just try to run away from this monster or try to stall for more time for Silly Fox and the others to escape, the strange creature instantly appeared right in front of her face as if it suddenly teleported! N?v(el)B\\jnn
Of course, the strange creature did not teleport, but it actually moved so fast that Tang Li Xue could only see it when it stopped right in front of her face.
Tang Li Xue was very startled as she reflexively unleashed one of her me skills as quickly as possible.
[Fiery Wall]~!
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
Tang Li Xue summoned out a wall of deep blue mes of Pride mixed with golden sun mes to burn the strange creature!
However, the strange creature disappeared from her vision again and appeared right behind her instead!
''No way, this damn bast*rd is actually still nning to toy around with me even in this kind of situation?! Just how much is it looking down on me?!'' Tang Li Xue thought even angrier.
In a great rage, Tang Li Xue immediately unleashed her domain prototype to face the strange creature!
Domain prototype, [Sun and Moon Domain], Sun Form~!
A brilliant golden light shone brightly as a clear image of the sun formed behind Tang Li Xue!
Different from before she evolved into [Rare] Grade Beast, not only did the image of the sun be so much clearer and brighter, but there was even a clear blue sky around it.
If previously it was only like the sun in the painting drawn with hand, then now, it could be said identical to the sun with a clear blue sky in 4k video footage. The ground around her was instantly lit in golden sun mes mixed with deep blue mes of Pride!
Tang Li Xue instantly understood that her mastery over the Profound Law of Heat and Cold should have already increased dramatically after she evolved into Yin Yang Celestial Sky Fox.
That should be the only reason why her domain prototype suddenly became so much moreplete and powerful than before.
Unfortunately, she could not open the current status window in her System to check it now, since her battle against the strange creature did not allow her to get distracted in the slightest.
[me Tiger Roaring ws]~!
A huge image of the White Tiger shrouded in deep blue mes of Pride and golden sun mes was condensed behind Tang Li Xue and roared into the sky proudly!
"RROOOOOOAAARRR~!"
The extremely high temperature was spreading as the huge White Tiger shrouded in two kinds of mes swung its me ws toward the strange creature!
Tang Li Xue even added [Sharp Edge Power] to the huge White Tiger''s me ws to increase their lethality several times!
But the strange creature easily dodged the White Tiger''s me ws attack with its current extremely high speed!
"I know you would do that~! Stop~!" Tang Li Xue shouted as she activated her [Mystic Whisper] to momentarily stop the strange creature''s movement.
Unfortunately, the strange creature waspletely unaffected by Tang Li Xue''s [Mystic Whisper].
It seemed the strange creature''s Spirit stat should be so much higherpared to Tang Li Xue after she evolved because her [Mystic Whisper] could not stop the strange creature even for 0.01 seconds.
"Tsk, this damn annoying monster..." Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue still refused to give up so easily as she tried her skills one by one to stop the strange creature even if it was only for less than 1 second.
[Eyes of Illusion]~!
[Spirit Shock]~!
[Ster Banishment]~!
However, all of her efforts were futile because the strange creature''s strength was clearly too much strongerpared to her.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she muttered in rage: "Then I want to see if you can even withstand this! [Eclipse of Desire]~!"
But she hadpletely forgotten that she no longer had [Eclipse of Desire] since it hadpletely improved to another skill after she evolved!
Its current new name was... [Celestial Dream]~!
The mysterious illusory eye between Tang Li Xue''s forehead was opened at that moment!
The scenery in front of the strange creature''s eyes was faded away and reced by the starry night sky with two eclipses.
The strange creature''s terrifying powerful aura instantly calmed down when its expression turned nk and soulless.
Just when Tang Li Xue wanted to take this chance to control the huge White Tiger and attack the stunned strange creature with its me ws, but somethingpletely out of her expectations actually happened!
The memories that were not hers suddenly flowed into her mind!
"Ancestor, our experiment finally seeded~! Ten out of ten people no longer show any sign of rejection after we added Crimson Dew Lotus Seed and royal merman blood into the God Pill''s form!" An old elder excitedly said to Tang Li Xue... or rather the person in her memories.
"What?! Really?! Bwahahahaha... Good job~! This is truly a timely sess!" The person replied in a delightful tone.
"But... Ancestor... Is it too hasty for you to consume it right now? Should we do more tests first to be more safe?" The old elder asked in a reluctant voice.
"Sigh, my lifespan has almostpletely exhausted, and I might only be able to live for one year at most. If I am gone, our sect will fall into decline, and the other sects will definitely take this chance to rob our inheritance, then destroy our sect." The person muttered dispiritedly.
"Don''t worry, Ancestor. With our God Pill made from the blood of the Undead race''s fallen Sovereign God, not only you could get an unlimited lifespan like the Undead Race, but you will also get the Undead race''s innate skill, [Life Drain], by consuming it." The other old elder encouraged.
Then the person in Tang Li Xue''s memories carried out closed-door cultivation before swallowing the God Pill.
At first, everything was proceeded ording to the person''s n.
That person obtained Undead Race''s innate skill, [Life Drain], and managed to obtain an unlimited lifespan by absorbing the essence from other creatures with [Life Drain] skill.
But that person gradually realized after such a long time that every time [Life Drain] skill was used to absorb the essence from other creatures, its mind and soul would be corroded by the power of the undead.
One by one that person''srades, family members, and disciples were turned into mindless undead monsters.
In the end, that person also turned into an undead monster, and the sect still ended up getting destroyed.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she opened her topaz blue eyes and stared at the strange creature in astonishment.
"This memory... Is this yours?! You are that sect''s ancestor who turned into a monster in the end?!" Tang Li Xue shouted and asked in shock and disbelief.
But how could the strange creature answer Tang Li Xue''s question when it could not even talk or maybe think properly?!
After the strange creature broke away from the effect of Tang Li Xue''s [Celestial Dream], it held its head with both of its hands as if it suffered an extremely painful headache.
"GRRRAAAAAAAAAWWRRR~!" The strange creature let out an earth-shattering loud roar in great pain.
Luckily, Tang Li Xue was one step faster, and she already used the [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy.
But her perfect copy was not so lucky...
It was already a bit toote for Tang Li Xue to un-summon her perfect copy with [Twin Moons] divine ability, so her perfect copy could only try to defend herself by using all of her defense abilities.
[Reflective Barrier]~!
Transparent Barrier created with [Energy Maniption]~!
Stone Wall made with [Mother Earth''s Gift]~!
BOOOOOOOOOOOMM~!
Even her threeyers of defense that she set as quickly as possible could notst for one breath before they were shattered by the extremely powerful pressure emitted by the angry strange creature!
The shockwave from its roar struck the perfect copy''s body and sted her more than a hundred meters away until she crashed heavily with dozens of trees, several boulders, and a hill.
Tang Li Xue could sense from her connection with her perfect copy that he perfect copy got injured very badly until she fell unconscious.
Tang Li Xue could only un-summon and take her perfect copy back with [Twin Moons] divine ability.
But she secretly gulped her saliva in fear and nervousness after she saw the strange creature''s true strength.
Even her perfect copy could actually be defeated with only one angry roar!
Just how scarily powerful is that monster?!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The ground shook greatly as the strange creature''s terrifying aura got increasingly powerful very rapidly as time passed!
Tang Li Xue could sense that the strange creature actually red resentfully at her, and it was no longer in the mood to y around with her anymore.
It means the strange creature will start to fight her seriously from now on!
Tang Li Xue instantly felt a very bad feeling about this.
She could really get killed and eaten by the strange creature in the blink of an eye if she did not take this seriously and use all of her trump cards to fight against that strange creature now!
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she decided to go all out right from now on!
[Twin Moons], [Merge]~!
The truth hade out~! Now, Tang Li Xue even had to fight with all of her strength against that monster in order to survive! Could Tang Li Xue really have a chance to win? We will see it in the next chapter~! (>w<)
Chapter 884: [Minds Eyes]!
884 Chapter 884: [Mind''s Eyes]!
All of Tang Li Xue''s stats instantly doubled after she used the [Merge] skill and fused with her perfect copy.
Not only her overall stats but also the power and effect of her divine abilities and skills were doubled.
it could be said that this [Merge] skill from [Twin Moons] was truly a peerless divine skill.
Even Silly Fox''s [Blood Burst] and [Blood Ignition] would only drastically increase strength and agility stats. The effect of both of thembined was still far inferior to Tang Li Xue''s [Merge] skill.
Unfortunately, the requirement of activating her [Merge] skill was also rtively harsh since she needed to sacrifice her perfect copy, and she had to wait nine nights for her perfect copy to be resurrected.
Tang Li Xue sighed while regretfully thinking: ''I should have copied Silly Fox''s [Blood Ignition] with my [Mirror of the Moon] before I let him run away with Instructor Lan and Teacher Li.''
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and hastily activated her other buff skills!
[Wings of Freedom]~!
Tang Li Xue''s overall speed increased by several times for fifteen minutes!
She also applied [Sharp Edge Power] to a pair of golden gauntlets equipped on her paws which was actually her martial soul, [Golden Winged Serpent].
Then she finally activated her new skill, the active skill of her new divine ability, [Divine Will], which she got from [Random Power Ticket]!
[Mind''s Eyes]~!
(Mind''s Eyes: The user will temporarily have a pair of eyes that have the power to read anyone''s mind and predict anyone''s movement ahead of time. Buff duration: 10 minutes, Cooldown: 4 hours.)
The buff duration of this [Mind''s Eyes] had actually doubled, and its cooldown had decreased after Tang Li Xue evolved to Yin Yang Celestial Sky Fox, but Tang Li Xue did not have time to care about that right now.
Tang Li Xue''s mesmerizing topaz blue eyes were shining with mysterious purple light.
She instantly felt as if her eyes became much clearer, and she could see through everything.
''Holy cow, this is really an amazing skill~! If I also use [Fiery Bright Eyes] on the top of it, does it mean my eyes will be even more amazing?!'' Tang Li Xue gasped in amazement.
[Fiery Bright Eyes] had the power to see through any disguise or invisible creatures, and it could also allow Tang Li Xue to see through any obstacle.
While [Mind''s Eyes] could read everyone''s mind and predict their every movement ahead of time.
The power of both skills did not conflict with each other, and they even seemed toplement each other perfectly!
However, Tang Li Xue did not n to use [Fiery Bright Eyes] rashly because it would consume her energy rapidly.
Even though the total amount of Tang Li Xue''s vitality energy, spiritual energy, and mental energy had already increased several times after her cultivation breakthrough to the Core Formation Stage, and she evolved into Yin Yang Celestial Sky Fox, but this strange creature was clearly not something she could defeat easily, so it would be unwise to spend her energy rashly.
"ROOOOAAAAARRR~!" The strange creature roared angrily toward Tang Li Xue.
It seemed Tang Li Xue''s previous [Celestial Dream] made it really angry at her!
"Come here, you ugly monster~!" Tang Li Xue provoked the strange creature as she waved her paw at it.
SWIISSH~!"
The strange creature disappeared from Tang Li Xue''s view again as it moved at extremely fast speed!
But different from before, Tang Li Xue could easily predict the strange creature''s movement ahead of time thanks to her [Mind''s Eyes]!
[Wind Burst Step] plus [Sun Dragon sh]~!
[Wind Burst Step] could burst Tang Li Xue''s speed in a straight line to the direction of the destination point she had already set beforehand, while [Sun Dragon sh] could boost her speed in an instant like a rocket.
When both of thembined, Tang Li Xue''s speed was even faster than a sh of lightning!
Although she could only move like that in a straight line, but it was no longer a problem since her [Mind''s Eyes] could predict everything ahead of time.
[Sun Dragon Breath]~!
[me Tiger w]~!
[Fiery Bullets]~!
[Fire Bomb]~!
BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~! BOOM~!
Before the strange creature could even get close to Tang Li Xue, it was already bombarded by Tang Li Xue with all of her explosive skills!
The strange creature was caught off guard by Tang Li Xue''s sudden bombardment, but despite that, the strange creature was stillpletely unharmed by it!
"This damn monster~! Just how durable is its body?!" Tang Li Xueined while gnashing her fangs in anger and frustration.
Thebination of deep blue mes of Pride and the golden sun mes plus Sun Domain Prototype should be the most destructivebination attack that Tang Li Xue currently had, but they still failed to hurt the strange creature!
If only Tang Li Xue knew that even Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua, who were at the True Spirit Beast level, got beaten so badly by the strange creature before, she would definitely already decided to give up fighting against it and run away as quickly as she could from it right now.
The strange creature raised its hand in Tang Li Xue''s direction, and the ck energy around its body suddenly formed a giant demonic w, then stretched toward Tang Li Xue!
If it was before, Tang Li Xue would have already been caught helplessly by this giant demonic w, but after she activated her [Mind''s Eyes], she could easily dodge it ahead of time before the giant demonic w could even reach her.
The giant demonic w did not give up and kept chasing after Tang Li Xue around.
Tang Li Xue agilely ran around with [Wind Burst Step] plus [Sun Dragon sh] to avoid getting caught by the giant demonic w, while kept unleashing her offensive skills toward the strange creature!
[Scattered me Feathers]~!
[Fiery Bullets]~!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
"Damn it~! Then I want to see if your thick skin can withstand this!" Tang Li Xue angrily said as shepressed her deep blue me of Pride and Golden Sun mes in the spiral form. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
[Spiral Sphere Bomb]~!
The destructive me of Pride and Golden Sun mes were spinning faster and faster under Tang Li Xue''s deliberate control.
The previous Tang Li Xue could not do this after her me of Pride had grown too strong for her to control, but it waspletely different right now.
Afterpleting her evolution to Yin Yang Celestial Sky Fox, her strength and bloodline had be so much more powerfulpared to before.
Controlling both the enhanced me of Pride and Golden Sun mes while simultaneously using her Sun Domain Prototype to boost their power was no longer difficult for the current her!
A small cyclone created from thepressed dual mes quickly stabilized on the top of Tang Li Xue''s paw.
As the deep blue mixed with golden-colored light got brighter and brighter, the explosion power and the scorching temperature of the [Spiral Sphere Bomb] also became higher and higher!
The previous Tang Li Xue could only condense [Spiral Sphere Bomb] which was around eight times more powerful than her ordinary [me Bomb].
But now, the destructive power and temperature of her current [Spiral Sphere Bomb] had reached at least fifteen times than the ordinary [me Bomb], and it still kept increasing!
Meanwhile, the strange creature had not given up yet as it kept trying to catch Tang Li Xue, and it even condensed a few more giant demonic ws!
However, Tang Li Xue could still barely dodge the assault of all giant demonic ws thanks to her [Mind''s Eyes] while she keptpressing and condensing her [Spiral Sphere Bomb].
Of course, it was also mostly because the strange creature thought it was fun to y Tang Li Xue like this since if it went all out seriously, Tang Li Xue might have already gotten caught by it.
After her [Spiral Sphere Bomb]''s destructive power reached twenty-five times of ordinary [me Bomb], Tang Li Xue finally could not hold on anymore, and even her [Spiral Sphere Bomb] almost went out of control.
Despite that, Tang Li Xue did not immediately throw her [Spiral Sphere Bomb] toward the strange creature as if she were waiting for something.
After one minute or so of ying whack-a-mole using several giant demonic ws with Tang Li Xue as the target, the strange creature got bored with it and decided to tear one of Tang Li Xue''s limbs for it to taste!
Just when the strange creature dashed very swiftly toward Tang Li Xue, several space fragments actually fell again from the shattered sky of the Secret Realm!
The strange creature did not seem to want to be touched by those space fragments, so it hastily halted its movement and jumped further away from those space fragment
''This is it~! This is the chance I am waiting for~!'' Tang Li Xue delightfully eximed in her mind.
Tang Li Xue used her [Wind Burst Step] plus [Sun Dragon sh] again to sprint closer toward the strange creature instead!
The strange creature was caught unprepared again by Tang Li Xue''s unpredictable moves!
How could the strange creature predict that Tang Li Xue who always tried to avoid or keep her distance further from her before, would suddenly rush toward it right now?!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
when those transparent space fragments fell onto the ground, the ground shattered like a mirror, leaving several strange pitch-ck holes on the ground like a bottomless abyss.
All of those strange pitch-ck holes sucked everything around them from spiritual energy, air, soil, stones, grasses, and so on, but their sucking power was not strong enough to affect the strange creature and Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue who dashed to the strange creature''s rear suddenly threw [Spiral Sphere Bomb] at it from close range!
Yes, because Tang Li Xue knew that the strange creature could definitely dodge her [Spiral Sphere Bomb] if she threw it from farther away, so she decided to get close to it first before throwing her [Spiral Sphere Bomb] at it!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Would Tang Li Xue''s n really be able to take down the strange creature? We will see it in the next chapter, so don''t miss it~! (>w<)
godadi
Chapter 885: Final Countdown!
885 Chapter 885: Final Countdown!
A tremendous explosion was triggered when Tang Li Xue''s [Spiral Sphere Bomb] hit the strange creature''s body!
The strange creature actually reacted fast enough by turning around and condensing a ck shield with its ck fog-like energy, but the explosion was too devastating for the strange creature''s ck shield to block itpletely.
The strange creature''s body was still thrown off uncontrobly forward like a cannonball because of the powerful impact of the devastating explosion!
Tang Li Xue was actually in a much worse condition than the strange creature because she threw her [Spiral Sphere Bomb] toward the strange creature at very close range just now.
Tang Li Xue was not only flung back violently but she also got injured pretty badly.
Despite that, Tang Li Xue smiled victoriously instead whileughing an evilugh in her heart: ''It really hurts~! But it is still eptable because I exchange this with your dead end, hehehehe...''
Yes, the direction where the strange creature got thrown off was actually the several strange pitch-ck holes created after the falling transparent space fragments shattered the ground!
Tang Li Xue knew that even her [Spiral Sphere Bomb] should not be able to kill the strange creature, so she nned to push the strange creature until it fell into the Void Space under those several strange pitch-ck holes!
Just when Tang Li Xue thought that her n had seeded since the strange creature had already flown toward those pitch-ck holes, the ck energy around the strange creature suddenly transformed into several giant demonic ws and stretched to grab the ground!
The several giant demonic ws left tens of meters long trails on the ground before the strange creature''s body stopped right before it fell into the pitch-ck hole.
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in rage and embarrassment when she realized that her n failed.
"You ugly monster, do you really think this is already over?!" Tang Li Xue scolded as she slowly stood up again despite her body still riddled with injuries.
"I want to see how you try to withstand this then... Come out, my strongest sword~!" Tang Li Xue muttered as she urged the tiny sword floating at the center of her sea of consciousness.
[Soul ying Sword]~!
Tang Li Xue should not be able to use or control [Soul ying Sword] yet at least until her cultivation reaches the Nascent Soul Stage, but under the Spirit stat boost of her [Divine Will] plus [Mind''s Eyes], Tang Li Xue had confidence that she could finally use her [Soul ying Sword]!
CLANG~! WEEEEEENGG~!
The loud sound of sword chant echoed through the entire cliff!
The [Soul ying Sword] in Tang Li Xue''s sea of consciousness trembled violently before it flew out very swiftly from Tang Li Xue''s forehead!
Different from before when Tang Li Xue was still weak, but she forcefully controlled the [Soul ying Sword] until she passed out, the current Tang Li Xue not only has an extremely powerful soul or spirit, but even her bloodline had been transformed into an even more powerful Yin Yang Celestial Sky Fox Bloodline.
The [Soul ying Sword] was flying around so fast like a lightning bolt under Tang Li Xue''s control as if it were the extension of Tang Li Xue''s consciousness.
"Go, cut that ugly monster for me~!" Tang Li Xue bellowed in a cold voice as the [Soul ying Sword] turned into a sh and flew toward the strange creature!
The strange creature could not dodge because the [Soul ying Sword] was too fast like a streak of light, so it decided to create severalyers of ck shield with its ck energy!
But the [Soul ying Sword] easily phased through all of those shields as if it were an immaterial object and instantly reached the strange creature.
As a soul-type weapon, the [Soul ying Sword] could cut the target''s soul directly without being hindered by the target''s body or any defense, so it would be futile even if the target has a sturdy body or unbreakable defense.
But who knew that Tang Li Xue immediately met with another huge problem right now?!
If the souls of the weaker creatures were like white threads that could easily be cut, then this strange creature''s soul was like a thick and sturdy ck chain.
Even Tang Li Xue did not have any confidence in cutting the strange creature''s soul with one sh of her [Soul ying Sword].
However, Tang Li Xue did not really care about that since her objective was not that since the very start...
PPUUUUFF~!
"ROOOOOOAAAAAARRR~!" The strange creature roared out loud while holding its head with both of its hands in great pain!
Tang Li Xue''s [Soul ying Sword] might have failed to cut the strange creature''s soul in two and instantly kill it in one attack, but it still managed to leave some damage to its soul.
Tang Li Xue took this chance when the strange creature staggered in pain and its injured soul was weakened tounch her [Mystic Whisper] toward it!
"Step back~!" Tang Li Xue ordered the strange creature with her [Mystic Whisper].
If she tried tomand something moreplicated like ''jump into that hole'', the strange creature''s extremely powerful consciousness could probably resist it.
But ''Step Back'' should be a simple but effectivemand, second only to ''Stop''.
Just like Tang Li Xue had expected, the strange creature really staggered backward subconsciously until it fell into the pitch-ck hole.
Tang Li Xue did not lower her guard even after she saw the strange creature already fallen into the Void Space with her own eyes.
Only after waiting for one minute or so and the strange creature really did not jump out of the pitch-ck hole, Tang Li Xue finally sighed in relief.
Tang Li Xue let the [Soul ying Sword] fly back to the space between her eyes and settle down calmly in the center of her sea of consciousness again.
"Huff, finally... That monster is finally gone~!" Tang Li Xuey down on the ground while sighing in relief.
Then Tang Li Xue also canceled her [Perfect Assimtion] with the deep blue Phoenix of Pride, and her merge with [Golden Winged Serpent], before letting them go back to rest in her Dantian Space.
While she was resting to recover her stamina and wounds, Tang Li Xue concluded many things from her previous battle with the strange creature: "The full power of this [Soul ying Sword] is truly astonishing. Previously, I should only be able to forcefully use around 10% of its power in the Inheritance Ground Tablet."
"But although I can use 100% of its power now to y someone at the level of the peak Nascent Soul Stage expert, I can only use it twice at most, and I also must have [Mind''s Eyes] buff." Tang Li Xue added again.
First, it actually reduced the mental energy consumption of soul-rted abilities such as [Celestial Dream], [Soul ying Sword], [Mystic Whisper], [Spirit Shock], and so on.
Second, it also improved the power and control of soul-rted abilities.
Just when Tang Li Xue wanted to open her System''s status window to check what kind of divine abilities she awakened after she evolved into Yin Yang Celestial Sky Fox...
BAAAAAAAANG~!!! n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
A giant demonic w suddenly stretched out from the pitch-ck hole and grabbed the edge of the hole!
"Holy cow~! No way... You must be kidding me, right? There should be no way that monster can still remain alive after it fell into Void Space, right?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in shock and disbelief as her scalp went numb as she saw the familiar giant demonic w.
To make it worse, the duration of her [Wings of Freedom] buff and [Mind''s Eyes] was already over, so she had to wait for their cooldown to finish before she could use them again!
Without those two OP buffs, there was really no way for Tang Li Xue to fight against the strange creature anymore.
When Tang Li Xue was in panic and did not know what she had to do next...
BWOOOOSH~!!!
An eye-catching pir of golden light suddenly appeared, but the location was quite far away from Tang Li Xue''s location!
"What the heck is that pir of light? Don''t tell me that there is a precious treasure appearing at thest moment before this secret realmpletely copses?!" Tang Li Xue murmured curiously.
Then there were actually some words that appeared on the top of the pir of golden light!
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes shone brightly when she read the words: "Space Tunnel has beenpleted... Gather here in ten minutes before the Secret Realmpletely copses... So, it means they have rebuilt the space tunnel to get out from this secret realm?!"
Tang Li Xue nced at the strange creature that was still trying to crawl out of the pitch-ck hole for a few moments before she gritted her fangs and decided to ignore it, then dashed as fast as she could toward the pir of golden light!
Ten minutes was not long after all.
If she kept wasting her time fighting against the strange creature, she would definitely be abandoned by those foxes from the exploration team alone in this copsing secret realm!
As the future Fox Deity, how could she possibly be willing to die together with that strange creature in this ce?!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The entire Secret Realm shook even more greatly as the speed of copsing seemed to increase significantly!
Currently, the Secret Realm has already shrunk by more than half!
The final countdown for the Secret Realm''s destruction kept ticking closer and closer as the cracks in the sky became even more severe and countless space fragments began to fall from the sky like drizzling rain!
All right, we will speed up a little bit~! (>w<) Could Tang Li Xue get away safely from the secret realm? Would the strange creature really let Tang Li Xue that easily? We will see it in the next chapter, so don''t miss it~!
Chapter 886: Thrilling Chase Under The Rain!
Chapter 886: Thrilling Chase Under The Rain!
Tang Li Xue had to avoid every falling space fragment carefully as she headed toward the pir of the light using her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step].
The speed of her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] might not be nearly as fast as her [Wind Burst Step], but it was a lot more flexible and gracefulpared to [Wind Burst Step] which could only move extremely fast in a straight line.
That was mainly the reason why [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] was the most suitable in this current situation, especially since Tang Li Xue no longer had [Mind''s Eyes] buff to predict where the falling space fragments would fall ahead of time.
.....
After Tang Li Xue ran more than a dozen miles away from the previous cliff, the strange creature was finally able to crawl out from the pitch-ck hole using the giant demonic ws created from its own ck energy after spending so much effort.
But many parts of the strange creature''s body were disintegrated by the extremely destructive space energy such as its hands, legs, and shoulders.
Despite that, the strange creature''s ck fog-like energy solidified to form its hands, legs, and shoulders, thenpletely merged with its body.
In that instant, the strange creature''s body waspletely restored like before as if it was not affected after falling into the Void Space.
If Tang Li Xue had seen what had happened to the strange creature just now, she would have recognized that what it did was almost the same as the scary woman in a fancy red dress she had faced in Medicine Garden Pce before.
Maybe because they were pretty much the same type of ''creature'', so their abilities were also identical.
Of course, the strange creature''s strength was on a whole different levelpared to the previous scary woman in a fancy red dress.
After its bodypletely recovered, the strange creature looked around in great rage to find Tang Li Xue.
It really wanted to vent its anger by tearing her body to shreds and eating each of her body parts with relish.
Unfortunately for it, Tang Li Xue was no longer there anymore, so no matter how hard the strange creature was searching for her there, it would never be able to find her.
"ROOOOAAAAARRR~!" The strange creature roared out loud in anger as the ck energy that shrouded its body burst out like a broken dam.
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The entire cliff instantly exploded into dust by the strange creature''s catastrophic ck energy!
The strange creature immediately calmed down after it went on a rampage for a few moments.
Then the strange creature closed its eyes as it tried to sense Tang Li Xue''s location.
Surprisingly, the strange creature could really sense Tang Li Xue''s location!
"Kuhehehehehe~!" The strange creature let out its eerieugh in excitement as it turned into a ck sh and flew toward Tang Li Xue''s location with breakneck speed.
Tang Li Xue might cry in frustration if she knew the reason why the strange creature could sense her location so urately was because of the previous ck energy given to her by the strange creature when she evolved before.
Yes, it was truly ironic that the ck energy given by the strange creature which had helped her so much to get through her evolution safely before had be her stumbling block right now.
.....
Right at this moment, Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body subconsciously shuddered as she suddenly had a really bad feeling as if she was being targeted by a terrifying beast.
"What the heck is this? Why do I feel like something is chasing me from behind? Don''t tell me that monster already managed to jump out from that hole and even chasing after me right now?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a worried tone while frowning deeply.
It seemed the ability to sense should have worked both ways after Tang Li Xue merged the strange creature''s ck energy with her three kinds of energies and bloodlines using the Yin-Yang Diagram.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs as she anxiously tried to increase her speed to maximum, but running while dodging all of the falling space fragments on her way was certainly not an easy thing to do.
Even though Tang Li Xue''s Agility stat had improved a lot after she evolved, and her current speed was already extremely fastpared to her previous self, but the strange creature''s speed was obviously still much faster than hers!
It did not take long for the strange creature to catch up with Tang Li Xue and see her back from behind!
"Damn it~! This persistent bast*rd is so annoying!" Tang Li Xue wailed in dissatisfaction.
Tang Li Xue hated to admit it, but she really ran out of options right now.
Her [Mind''s Eyes] and [Wings of Freedom] had entered cooldown, so she should not be able to use them anymore in a short period of time.
Not to mention that even her Phoenix of Pride and Yaya had already fallen asleep in exhaustion, so neither [Divine Possession Mode] nor [Perfect Assimtion Mode] were avable at this point.
The only good news was that the [Merge] buff from [Twin Moons] divine ability was still there, and it would stillst for at least half an hour or so.
The strange creature was getting closer and closer rapidly to Tang Li Xue from behind which made Tang Li Xue be more and more anxious.
Just when the strange creature managed to get so close to Tang Li Xue''s rear, and it transformed its ck fog-like energy into several giant demonic ws, then let them stretch forward to catch Tang Li Xue...
[Shadow sh]~!
Tang Li Xue activated her equipment skill and instantly teleported to the tree''s shade one hundred meters from her previous location.
The strange creature snorted in displeasure before it increased its speed and rushed faster toward Tang Li Xue!
"At this rate, that stinky monster will definitely catch me really soon! I really have to do something fast before that happens!" Tang Li Xue groaned as she kept running with her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] while dodging the falling space fragments by jumping to the right and left agilely until she left several after images behind.
Just when Tang Li Xue hadpletely run out of ideas, two shes of light suddenly flew out from her Dantian!
"Wha... It is you guys?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
Yes, those two shes of light were actually Little Loki and Lucia!
It seemed their injuries had already recoveredpletely!
Lucia used her beak to pull the back of Tang Li Xue''s neck and threw Tang Li Xue onto her back before she pped her wings rapidly and flew toward the pir of golden light with breakneck speed.
The strange creature gritted its teeth in vexation.
It felt like the delicious food was already right in front of its teeth, but it was actually taken by someone before it had a chance to take a bite of it.
The strange creature kept chasing after Tang Li Xue while controlling the several giant demonic ws formed from its ck energy to stretch toward Tang Li Xue again!
Right before the giant demonic ws almost reached Tang Li Xue and Lucia, Little Loki who sat on the top of Tang Li Xue''s furry head suddenly used its [Instant Teleportation] to appear on Lucia''s rear. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Little Loki opened its tiny mouth widely...
[Heaven''s Devour]~!
Those approaching giant demonic ws actually got sucked into Little Loki''s mouth instead before they could grab Tang Li Xue and Lucia from behind!
Little Loki licked its lips in satisfaction while ring at the strange creature mockingly.
It looked like Little Loki was still holding a grudge at it because the strange creature broke Little Loki''s chin and neck with its kick before.
The strange creature red coldly at Little Loki before it spread its ck fog-like energy toward Lucia''s legs and solidified into ck chains!
The ck chains that bound Lucia''s legs connected to the strange creature''s hands, then it suddenly pulled the chain with its great strength!
BAAAAANGG~!
Lucia fell down really hard and crashed heavily onto the ground!
But it was not only that...
Tang Li Xue still hugged Lucia''s neck tightly even after Lucia crashed hard onto the ground, so she would not get thrown off.
"Watch out~!" Tang Li Xue shouted in panic when Lucia who was still sliding on the ground because of the inertia of her fall almost crashed into the falling space fragments or fell into the pitch-ck hole!
Lucia hastily used [Gigantification] to shrink her body to palm-size, so she would not identally bump into those space fragments or fall into the pitch-ck hole!
Because Lucia suddenly got smaller, the strange creature''s ck chain could no longer bind her.
Tang Li Xue quickly caught Lucia while performing [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] to dodge those falling space fragments.
But the strange creature delightfully took this chance to close the gap between it and Tang Li Xue!
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Lucia could only try to unleash their strongest attack in order to push the strange creature away from them!
[Moon Shattering Strike]~!
[Heaven''s Devour]~!
[Golden Light Spell] plus [de Feather sh]~!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
However, it was Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Lucia who got thrown off violently until they spurted a few mouthfuls of blood instead after their attacks shed head-on against the strange creature''s w attack!
Different from before, this time the strange creature did not hold back its strength much, so Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, and Lucia should be injured pretty badly.
The only reason why the strange creature did not attack Tang Li Xue with all of its strength just now was because it did not want Tang Li Xue to explode into blood mist.
After all, the strange creature''s main objective was to eat Tang Li Xue from the very start.
Chapter 887: Chapter 887: [Celestial Judgment] Descend!
Chapter 887: [Celestial Judgment] Descend!
?
Tang Li Xue''s consciousness was blurry, and most of the bones in her body were probably shattered by the strange creature''s attack.
She felt like an ordinary mortal who just crashed heavily by a high-speed truck.
Tang Li Xue''s blurry sight could faintly see the strange creature''s feet walking slowly toward her.
Just when the strange creature bent down to pick up Tang Li Xue whoy weakly on the ground...
BAAAAAANG~!
Lucia suddenly charged and headbutted the strange creature from the right side with her erged twenty-meter body!
But the strange creature only leisurely raised its right hand to stop Lucia.
Lucia urged all of her strength to push the strange creature away from Tang Li Xue, but the strange creature was rooted on the ground, and it did not move an inch even though Lucia already mobilized all of her strength.
BOOOOOOOOOM~!
Then the strange creature kicked Lucia away until she was thrown off more than fifty meters and vomited a lot of blood.
Lucia might be the most sturdy among them, but even she would be gravely injured and pass out after getting attacked twice by the serious strange creature.
"No, Lucia~!" Tang Li Xue muttered worriedly as she slowly stood up.
"Kuhehehehe~!" The strange creatureughed creepily while it grabbed the back of Tang Li Xue''s neck and brought her closer to its face.
Tang Li Xue could even smell its unbearable stench and hear its unpleasant mockingugh on her face.
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes, she could even see the strange creature ridiculing cold sneer while staring at her.
The anger in Tang Li Xue''s heart was burning even more fiercely when she saw it.
"You damn ugly monster... Do you really think that you have already won?!" Tang Li Xue said coldly to the strange creature as she secretly unleashed the ability she had never used yet until now toward the strange creature.
Tang Li Xue could only silently pray that it would work this time, since if not, she and her team would really be screwed since they have reallypletely run out of ideas.
The mysterious third eye appeared on Tang Li Xue''s forehead, and it red solemnly at the strange creature.
[Regalia of Celestial Sky]... [Celestial Judgment]~!
The strange creature suddenly had a really bad feeling, but it was already toote for it to react!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The strange creature was extremely shocked when its ck fog-like energy suddenly went out of control and rioting!
The strange creature unconsciously loosened its grip on Tang Li Xue, so Tang Li Xue immediately took this chance to break away from the strange creature and keep her distance from it.
"ROOOOAAAARRR~!" The strange creature roared out loud as its ck fog-like energy burst out uncontrobly from its body!
Then its ck fog-like energy rapidly formed into a dozen people silhouette that crawled onto the strange creature''s body!
"Ancestor, why do you kill me?! I have been very loyal to you! I have even killed so many people on your orders!" A young man''s silhouette condemned angrily.
"Grandfather, I told you to never touch that abominable thing many times?! But you keep saying that everything will be all right! You liar~! You are the biggest sinner-!" A woman''s silhouette scolded with a tone filled with resentment.
"Dad, I already followed all of your orders, you said our sect will no longer decline, and we will prosper soon! But why, just why..." A middle-aged man''s silhouette questioned again and again in a ming tone.
"Ancestor, why..."
"Damn you sinner..."
"How could you do this to me?!"
"You heartless murderer..."
"You cold-blooded liar~! You said you will fulfill all my wishes..."
"I always thought of you as my closest brother, but why did you betray me and even stab me from behind?! You traitorous bast*rd-!"
...
All of their shrill voices were filled with rage and grudges.
Each of their resentful words echoed loudly, stung into the brain and consciousness of everyone who heard them.
Even Tang Li Xue, who was already more than twenty meters away from the strange creature, still got affected and felt really dizzy, and her heart was also slowly affected by their sorrow
and despair.
Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs to withstand the dizziness and ufortable feeling she felt as she dragged her heavily injured body to pick up the unconscious Lucia and Little Loki. Meanwhile, the number of ck silhouettes condensed from the ck fog-like energy kept increasing, and their behavior became even more violent and manic.
They began to crawl onto the strange creature''s body, then grabbed and pulled the strange creature''s body while kept ming, questioning, scolding, and cursing at it nonstop. "GRRRAAAWWWRR~!" The strange creature panicly tried to free itself by pushing all of those ck silhouettes away.
Unfortunately, it was only a futile effort since those ck silhouettes were actually formed
from its own energy.
Its own ck fog-like energy which the strange creature relied on so much all the time was actually biting back at it right now.
Those angry ck silhouettes even started to scratch and bite the strange creature
resentfully.
They really looked like a group of vengeful ghosts that juste out from hell''s gate to take revenge.
The scene was so horrible even more terrifying than any horror movie that Tang Li Xue had ever seen in her previous life.
Then a decrepit old man''s silhouette condensed right above the strange creature''s head.
The silhouette of the decrepit old man held his head with both of his hands while mumbling: "No... Stop it... Shut up~! It is not me... It is not my fault... That was all an ident! I... I am
also only a victim!"
After putting the unconscious Little Loki and Lucia into her Dantian Space, Tang Li Xue did not dare to stay there any longer as she used her [Moonlight Flickering sh Step] as quickly
as possible toward the pir of golden light''s direction.
Because of her heavy injuries, her speed was still greatly affected and decreased a lot.
Tang Li Xue hissed in pain while limping forward, but she did not dare to stop since no one could tell how long the effect of her [Celestial Judgment] couldst.
Tang Li Xue''s mind was wandering as she was sprinting while dodging all the space fragments on her way: ''[Eclipse of Sins]''s description said that it is the regalia to condemn the target for all the mistakes, sins, and crimes that the target hasmitted throughout their
life.''
''The effect of [Eclipse of Sins] seems to project illusion to harass the target, so they would get weakened, slowed, and received damage over time.''
''But those things... I mean the effect of [Celestial Judgment] does not seem like a mere illusion though... Sigh, whatever... I can only hope it canst longer to make that monster busy for a while at least until I manage to get out of this ce.'' Tang Li Xue silently prayed in
her heart.
.....
Right at this time, Zhu Zhenhua got even more anxious when she saw the Secret Realm was copsing more and more rapidly.
"Dad-!" Zhu Zhenhua called Zhu Jun in a panicked tone.
"How many times I should tell you, you should call me Chief when we are on the exploration mission~!" Zhu Jun rebuked Zhu Zhenhua calmly.
"We have already run out of time! We have to go right now! If we wait until the entire Secret Realm really copses, the space tunnel will definitely fall apart too before we can reach the other side of the space tunnel!" Zhu Zhenhua angrily reminded Zhu Jun.
The other foxes from the exploration team were also staring at Zhu Jun in worry and anxiety.
There were so many of them when they first entered this Secret Realm, but now, there were only around a dozen of them alive.
Not to mention more than half of them were injured including Silly Fox, Instructor Mei Lan,
and Teacher Li Wei.
They did not dare to put the injured foxes into the medium-rank space pouch since it was too fragile to hold stronger creatures than ordinary-level creatures.
It would be a disaster if the medium-rank space pouch broke when they traveled inside the space tunnelter, so the exploration team foxes decided to just carry the injured ones with them.
Zhu Jun took a deep breath while hesitating for a while before he gnashed his teeth and replied in a firm tone: "I know! I know that already! But... Just one more minute. Let''s wait at
least one more minute!"
After thest one minute was up, two more exploration team foxes managed to join them at
thest moment.
"All right, let''s go, everyone! Make sure to follow closely behind me! Don''t fall behind too far!" Zhu Zhenhua instructed everyone.
Zhu Zhenhua would lead in front of everyone, while Zhu Jun had to guard behind them, so he
could use his avatar to maintain the space tunnel on the secret realm''s side to not copse yet until they reached the other side.
Just when Zhu Jun, Zhu Zhenhua, and all the foxes from the exploration team almost enteredN?v(el)B\\jnn
the space tunnel...
"Hey, Wait~! Wait for me~!" Tang Li Xue shouted to call them.
Tang Li Xue was really happy when she finally saw Zhu Jun, Zhu Zhenhua, and the other foxes.
"Thank goodness, I really made it in time~!" Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
But before she could be happy for long...
"GROOOOOAAAARRR~!" The strange creature roared in rage as it was chasing so close behind
Tang Li Xue while dragging more than a dozen ck silhouettes that kept cursing, scratching,
and biting at it! "Holy crap~! This annoying monster is still chasing after me in that condition?! Just how persistent are you?!" Tang Li Xue angrily scolded.
Chapter 888: Last Moment!
Chapter 888: Last Moment!
However, Tang Li Xue immediately felt relieved when she thought that there were two foxes at the True Spirit Beast level here, so they should be able to defeat this ugly monster easily, right?
Tang Li Xue quickly realized something was not right as she saw the despaired expression on Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua''s pale faces.
''Err, they should be able to defeat this ugly monster easily, right?'' Tang Li Xue asked again with an unsure tone in her mind this time.
"D... Dad, that monster ising! What should we do now?!" Zhu Zhengua asked in an anxious tone.
Zhu Jun gritted his teeth as cold sweat drenched his forehead and back.
The Secret Realm had already almost copsedpletely, so they definitely did not have any time to waste to fight against the strange creature.
To make it worse, both Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua needed to use their entire power to maintain the unstable space tunnel in order for it to not copse along with the Secret Realm at least until they reached the other side of the space tunnel.
Not to mention that they also had to lead everyone to pass the space tunnel safely without touching any space fragments or falling into any space cracks.
In short, they really did not have any time or energy to spare to fight against the strange creature!
Tang Li Xue still did not understand that, and she also did not know that both Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua had already been beaten once by the strange creature before.
But she could already faintly guess a few points from their despaired expression after they saw the strange creature.
Tang Li Xue slowed down her step while muttering: "I see... From their expression, they should have already met with that monster before. Since the monster is still alive now, and they look at it so scared like that, it seems the ending should not be that good for them."
Tang Li Xue sighed as she turned around and stood facing the approaching strange creature instead.
"Go quickly~! I will hold that monster here!" Tang Li Xue shouted firmly at Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua without turning her head and looking at them.
"What?! Are you crazy?!" Zhu Zhenhua widened her eyes in disbelief when she heard Tang Li Xue''s words.
"Do you know how strong that monster is?! It can even beat both of us easily before!" Zhu Jun told Tang Li Xue in a solemn tone.
"I know, but there is no other way, right?!" Tang Li Xue replied to them as she urged Phoenix of Pride and Yaya to wake up.
''I know both of you are still exhausted, but please help me~!'' Tang Li Xue whispered gently to Phoenix of Pride and Yaya.
Yaya sleepily woke up from her slumber, while Phoenix of Pride was also irritatingly risen from its sleep.
Then both of them turned into green light and blue light, then merged into Tang Li Xue''s body!
Tang Li Xue finally decided to use her final trump card!
*Ding!
[The user has entered perfect synchronization with Yaya and Phoenix of Pride!]
[Entering War Goddess Mode!]
Moreover, the duration of her [Merge] buff was still not over yet!
In short, Tang Li Xue currently was in [War Goddess Mode] with Yaya and Phoenix of Pride, plus [Merge] skill with her perfect copy!
This was Tang Li Xue''s strongest form!
The deep blue mes and golden sun mes shrouded Tang Li Xue''s silver furry figure as the beautiful crystal-clear fairy wings grew on her back along with a pair of me Phoenix Wings.
A silver tiara decorated with many glittering green gems appeared on the top of her furry head making her look more beautiful and noble.
While Zhu Jun was still hesitating while kept staring at Tang Li Xue, Zhu Zhenhua anxiously pulled his hand while saying in a stern tone: "Dad~! We have no more time! We have to go now, or all of us will die here!"
Zhu Jun''s body shuddered in helplessness, and he looked much older all of a sudden.
"I am sorry... But thank you very much!"Zhu Jun did not know what to say to Tang Li Xue, so he could only say that to express her gratitude and helplessness.
Tang Li Xue smiled in relief when she saw Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua lead everyone to enter the entrance of the space tunnel together.
But the strange creature had also reached the entrance of the space tunnel!
"Oh, no, you don''t~!" Tang Li Xue muttered coldly as she unleashed her attack to prevent the strange creature from getting close to the entrance of the space tunnel!
[Cyclone Storm] plus mes of Pride and Golden Sun mes~!
[Critical Strikers]''s weapon skill, [Final Strike]~!
BWOOOOOSSSH~!
Tang Li Xue unleashed a huge pir of hurricane condensed from countless wind desbined with extremely high-temperature dual mes!
BOOOOOOOOOM~!!!
The strange creature could not dodge it fast enough since it was still affected by Tang Li Xue''s [Celestial Judgment], so it immediately got trapped inside the huge me cyclone and dragged away by it.
Inside the huge me cyclone, the strange creature was shed by countless wind des and burned by extremely high-temperature dual mes!
Moreover, the strange creature''s ck fog-like energy was still going out of control and torturing itself instead, so it could not use its ck energy to defend itself like before.
Despite that, the strange creature''s body was still extremely strong and sturdy.
Even Dual mes Cyclone Storm strengthened by [Final Strike] could only leave insignificant scars and burns on its strange creature''s body.
It only took a few breaths of time for the strange creature to break free from Tang Li Xue''s Dual mes Cyclone Storm!
"GRAAAAWWRR~!" The strange creature no longer paid any attention to the space tunnel as it howled wrathfully at Tang Li Xue.
"That is right. Your opponent is me~!" Tang Li Xue said to the strange creature as she nced at the entrance of the space tunnel crumbling away after all foxes entered it.
''System, please tell me honestly... Is there a way for me to survive this situation? I mean I still have four Substitute Dolls, so I basically have 5 more lives, right?'' Tang Li Xue tried to ask her System nervously when the strange creature charged angrily toward her.
Most of the Secret Realm already copsed leaving only a few areas around them, so there was not much ce for Tang Li Xue to move around.
When Tang Li Xue tried her best to keep her distance from the strange creature with thebination of her [Wind Burst Step], [Breezing Step], and [Wind Guardian Blessing], her System gave a reply to her.
[Once this Secret Realmpletely copses, the chance of Host dying is 100%. Even if Host has a hundred or even a thousand Substitute Dolls, it would not change the oue.]
''System, how could you be so cold to me~?! I mean I am a good host, right? If I am dying, there is no guarantee that you can find a kinder, better, and more beautiful Host than me, so can you please lend me something that can help me survive? Something like Anywhere Door or Time Machine?'' Tang Li Xue begged her System pitifully.
[Borrowing or owing anything ispletely prohibited, and it would never be allowed even in the future.]
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~! CRACK~!
The entire Secret Realm shook greatly as it began to flip upside down!
It was as if the Secret Realm was sinking deeper into the Void Space before it would bepletely disintegrated!
The ground under their feet which was filled with cracks began to split apart!
Even the strange creature that kept chasing after Tang Li Xue almost fell into one of the splitting cracks, but it actually grabbed into one of Tang Li Xue''s tails!
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue grabbed one of the intact protruding rocks tightly as if her life depended on it.
"Damn it~! Is this really the end for me?! No, I cannot die here! Lucia, Little Loki, and Yaya are still with me! If I died here, they would also die with me!" Tang Li Xue blurted in a tone filled with unwillingness.
The strange creature slowly climbed up from Tang Li Xue''s tail, but Tang Li Xue red at it coldly while saying: "Just go and die already, you damn persistent bast*rd~!"
[Vacuum sh]~!
But Tang Li Xue knew that her [Vacuum sh] should not be able to kill the strange creature, so her target this time was her own tail instead!
PUUUUFF~!
After Tang Li Xue cut her own tail with [Vacuum sh], the strange creature finally fell into the deep crack and disappeared from Tang Li Xue''s view.
Even though she was still in a despaired situation, Tang Li Xue somehow felt extremely relieved after she managed to get rid of the strange creature.
Then Tang Li Xue canceled her [War Goddess Mode] before she hastily put Lucia, Yaya, Little Loki, and Phoenix of Pride into her System''s Pet Space.
After a few moments, the protruding rocks... or to be exact the entire ground shattered and even the sky was crumbling away!
With this, the entire Secret Realm had finallypletely copsed!
Tang Li Xue could only close her topaz blue eyes in sorrow and despair as she fell into Void Space along with the space fragments of the shattered Secret Realm.
But before Tang Li Xue couldpletely be submerged into the Void Space, her System said itsst goodbye to her, but strangely, Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining in hope instead.
Chapter 889: Chapter 889: The Spreading Sorrow!
Chapter 889: The Spreading Sorrow!
?
?
...
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Thepletely copsed Secret Realm greatly affected the space tunnel and caused the space tunnel to begin crumbling apart like copsing dominoes.
Zhu Jun hastily summoned out his one-hundred-meter-tall four-tail fox shrouded in sacred golden light with the enormous Golden Wheel of Fortune behind it to hold the copsing space tunnel!
"Hua''er, quickly carry them out of here~!" Zhu Jun shouted to Zhu Zhenhua.
"Okay, Dad~!" Zhu Zhenhua replied as she also summoned her one-hundred-meter-tall four-tail icy blue fox which emitted an unbearable cold aura, then controlled it to carry all the foxes.
The icy blue fox''s avatar was sprinting as fast as it could while Zhu Zhenhua and all the foxes sat on the icy blue fox''s back.
Zhu Zhenhua worriedly turned her head around to see Zhu Jun only to see that Zhu Jun actually did not follow them.
"NO, DAAAAD~!" Zhu Zhenhua cried out loud to call Zhu Jun, but Zhu Jun only smiled at her instead.
''Hua''er... Please live well on my behalf from now on. Oh, and don''t always quarrel with Qin Sheng over small things. He is a good guy... Goodbye...'' Zhu Jun whispered to Zhu Zhenhua with telepathy.
Zhu Zhenhua burst into tears after she heard Zhu Jun''s farewell.
She really wanted to turn back and forcefully dragged her dad out of this ce with her.
But she also knew that all of them would certainly die if she did that.
"Sob, sob... Why, dad... Just why... If only you listened to my words and came out of this ce a few minutes earlier, you might still be alive right now..." Zhu Zhenhua murmured while sobbing in sorrow.
For Zhu Zhenhua, it might not be worth it, but for Zhu Jun, it was really worth exchanging his old self with the lives of a few young fox cubs.
"Yes, it was really worth it." Zhu Jun smiled in relief as the destruction of the space tunnel slowed down a lot for a few moments when his four-tail fox avatar shrouded in sacred golden light exerted all his strength to stabilize the space tunnel.
The Zhu Jun sighed in regret while muttering: "Unfortunately, I will no longer have the opportunity to see my future grandson or granddaughter..."
Despite Zhu Jun''s sacrifice, it could actually only stall a few breaths of time for them to run further.
The space tunnel was copsing faster and faster, even Zhu Zhenhua and the other foxes could sense it as if a deadly giant beast was chasing after them so quickly from behind!
"Come on~! Be faster-!" Zhu Zhenhua gritted her teeth nervously as she urged her icy blue fox''s avatar.
"Vi.. Vice Chief..." One of the foxes called with a trembling voice when she saw the copsing space tunnel approaching them rapidly from behind.
"No, we will not make it at this rate!" The other fox muttered desperately.
"It''s over..." Zhu Zhenhua mumbled as she closed her eyes in despair.
Just when Zhu Zhenhua and all the foxes thought that they were really going to die here... BWOOOOSSH~!
An enormous four-tail fox avatar d in crimson me suddenly appeared right in front of them and hugged Zhu Zhenhua''s icy blue fox avatar!
It was actually Qin Sheng''s fox spirit avatar!
"Now~! Pull us out of here!" Qin Sheng yelled out loud to themunication device he held.
Then both the crimson me fox avatar and the icy blue fox avatar got pulled by a spirit treasure rope toward the end of the space tunnel at breakneck speed!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
BOO00000000000MM-!!!
The entire space tunnel shattered apart and exploded into nothingness.
Fortunately, Qin Sheng, Zhu Zhenhua, and all the foxes managed to get out of the space tunnel on time.
Qin Sheng tightly embraced Zhu Zhenhua while muttering in fright: "Hua''er, thank goodness you are okay! I thought I had lost you forever..."
"Sheng, but my dad... Sob, sob, WAAAAAHH~!" Zhu Zhenhua wept out loud while hugging Qin Sheng tightly.
The feeling of relief and dness after surviving from life-threatening disaster got washed again by grief and sorrow.
So many of them died... Even their Chief of Exploration Team was also buried forever along with the Secret Realm.
The other surviving foxes also sobbed and cried with Zhu Zhenhua.
It took a while for them to barely recover from their sorrow.
After calming down, they brought the injured and unconscious foxes back to the warship to get treated.
The medical equipment in the warship wasplete, and each one of them was top-grade. It did not take long for the injured foxes to recover and the unconscious foxes to wake up.
Of course, it was including Silly Fox, Instructor Mei Lan, and Teacher Li Wei... Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei still did not understand the situation yet since theirst memory was getting beaten by the strange creature, but Silly Fox was different...
He was frozen by Zhu Zhenhua when he wanted to rush back to help Tang Li Xue fight against the strange creature before!
"Xue~! Where is Xue?!" Silly Fox looked around and shouted anxiously.
"Calm down. I am sure, Little Xue will be all right." Instructor Mei Lan said to Silly Fox because she really believed that Tang Li Xue was someone who had great luck as the future Heaven''s Favored child of the Fox n after Meng Yue, so she should not die easily.
But Teacher Li Wei still had a bad hunch after he failed to see Tang Li Xue around there.
It should be impossible for Tang Li Xue to wander around without caring about them. Based on Tang Li Xue''s usual behavior, she was supposed to be guarding by their side worriedly until they were cured and regained their consciousness.
The sorrowful atmosphere in the medical room made them not dare to ask around about Tang Li Xue, so they decided to look for Zhu Zhenhua together after they transformed back to their human form and got dressed.
It was not hard to find Zhu Zhenhua since she was also treated in the medical room near their
room.
Even though Qin Sheng was also inside the room to apany Zhu Zhenhua, but they looked mournful and sorrowful like the others.
Before Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei could open their mouth to ask, Silly Fox already rushed toward Zhu Zhenhua and grabbed her cor while asking in an angry voice: "You damn b*tch, tell me where is Xue right now?! If something happens to her, I will make sure you pay
it with your life!"
Zhu Zhenhua gritted her teeth in annoyance as she pushed Silly Fox away while saying: "Just ept it, she is already gone forever."
"Wh... What did you say? You are lying, right?!" Silly Fox muttered in disbelief.
Zhu Zhenhua stared at Silly Fox nkly and apologized: "My condolence... But that is the
truth... If only..."
Before Zhu Zhenhua could finish her words...
BOOOOOOOOOMM~!
ck destructive lightning suddenly burst out from Silly Fox''s body as he shed onto Zhu Zhenhua and strangled her in great rage: "No, Xue! It is impossible for my Xue to die! It is all because of you! Why don''t you help her before?! Why don''t you let me help her?! It is all your
fault!"
BAAAANG~!
Qin Sheng immediately pushed Silly Fox away from Zhu Zhenhua until he crashed into the
wall behind him,
Qin Sheng warily stood right in front of Zhu Zhenhua to protect her while saying to Silly Fox, Teacher Li Wei, and Instructor Mei Lan in a solemn tone: "Calm down, everyone. I know you all feel sad after losing someone you love, but you should not me Hua''er for that."
"If it was not her who took you all out from the secret realm, and if it was not Hua''er''s father''s sacrifice, you all would have already been buried along with that secret realm right now." Qin Sheng exined clearly to Silly Fox, Teacher Li Wei, and Instructor Mei Lan. Instructor Mei Lan staggered while kept muttering in disbelief: "Impossible... How could it be?! It should be impossible for Little Xue to..."n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Teacher Li Wei hastily caught Instructor Mei Lan from behind before she fell down.
While Silly Fox sat on the ground nkly as if he had lost his soul.
The situation did not reach the point until they fought each other, but the atmosphere was deteriorating until they were drowned in sorrow and grief.
Meanwhile, Elder Yang... or he could also be called Xiao Hei finally managed to fully recover
from the heavy injuries he received from Instructor Mei Lan before.
Not only that, he even got a blessing in disguise and had an opportunity to breakthrough to
the Nascent Soul Stage in one fell swoop!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
After withstanding thest lightning tribtion, Xiao Hei finally stepped into the early
Nascent Soul Stage sessfully!
Xiao Hei exhaled the turbid air as he slowly opened his eyes.
He should have felt happy since he could reach Nascent Soul Stage so quickly, but Tang Li
Xue''s cold words kept echoing in his mind again and again which made him gloomy and
depressed.
"You do not need to thank me. This is myst help for you. From now on, we will beplete strangers."
"What do you mean by that, Xiao Bai?"
"I said never call me Xiao Bai again! And I do not want to hear any more of your nonsense."
"Goodbye... Elder Yang of Immortal Sword Sect."
Xiao Hei covered his face with both of his palms while muttering: "Why is it be like this?
Xiao Bai, I really miss you so badly..."
Then Xiao Hei jumped from his seat and widened his eyes while staring in the direction where
the secret realm copsed.
His body suddenly tensed, and even his heart palpitated violently.
He gritted his teeth as cold sweat drenched his forehead and back.
He clenched his fists so tightly until his blood was dripping onto the ground.
"No, this is impossible?! Xiao Bai... What is this feeling?! Why I cannot feel Xiao Bai''s presence anymore?!" Xiao Hei howled sorrowfully while staggering backward. Even though Xiao Hei and Tang Li Xue were separated by a long distance, but his mother''s
ring ne was still with Tang Li Xue, so he should still be able to sense Tang Li Xue''s presence, unless something untoward happened to her.
"No way, this is not real... This should only be a bad dream." Xiao Hei muttered derangedly
while holding his head with both of his hands.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The clear blue sky rapidly turned dark, and the ground shook greatly as something inside Xiao
Hei was awakening because of his grief and sorrow.
His eyes turned crimson red like blood as the silhouette of a pitch-ck demon emerged
from his body.
The Asura Demon God bloodline in Xiao Hei''s body actually got awakened!
Chapter 890: Chapter 890: Asura Demon King Awakening!
Chapter 890: Asura Demon King Awakening!
?
Countless cracks began to spread on the ground and the cave''s wall as terrifying pressure burst out from Xiao Hei''s body!
B0000000000MM !
The ominous crimson-red aura emerged from Xiao Hei and formed arge pir that pierced the dark cloudy sky while destroying the entire valley where Xiao Hei was!
Fortunately, Xiao Hei was currently hiding inside the hidden cave under the valley to hide from the Immortal Sword Sect''s relentless pursuit after Rongrong died.
If he was in the middle of the city, the entire city would surely be greatly damaged, and many people would be injured or even die.
Drip... Drip... Drip... Drip... Drip...
Drizzling rain began to fall from the dark cloudy sky, but strangely, the color of the rainwater was crimson red like blood.
It was as if even the sky could feel Xiao Hei''s grief and sorrow, so it was mourning along with Xiao Hei right now.
The rain of blood got heavier and heavier until it turned into a rainstorm.
Xiao Hei was kneeling alone in the ruined valley without moving as his lonely figure waspletely drenched by the blood rain.
Despite his deste figure that looked so fragile and miserable, his strength and cultivation level actually kept increasing at astonishing speed!
1st Rank of Nascent Soul Stage...
2nd Rank of Nascent Soul Stage...
3rd Rank of Nascent Soul Stage...
...
8th Rank of Nascent Soul Stage...
9th Rank of Nascent Soul Stage...
Great Perfection of Nascent Soul Stage~!
Xiao Hei surprisingly managed to reach the Great Perfection of Nascent Soul Stage in only one day!
He was only a half step away from the next stage!
Moreover, with his Asura Demon God bloodline which was already partially awakened, his strength should far surpass all ordinary Great Perfection Nascent Soul Stage cultivators!
This should be a happy asion for him, but it becamepletely meaningless for him at this point.
What is the use of having powerful cultivation and strength if he lost the only person he wanted to protect?!
"Should I just die now? Maybe I can meet with her in the afterlife..." Xiao Hei murmured ndly.
Xiao Hei stretched both his hands to his own neck with a nk expression.
But when he almost squeezed his own neck to kill himself, he suddenly halted his movement while saying in a cold voice like a vengeful demon who just crawled out from hell: "No, I cannot die yet. MO CHONGLIN-! I have to kill him first-!"
"All of these happened because of him!"
"If he did not n to kill me and Xiao Bai when we were in Asura Demon Sect, all of these would not happen, and both of us would still live happily in Asura Demon Sect!"
"No-! Not only Mo Chonglin... Everyone from Asura Demon Sect should also pay for that! Mo Chonglin and all the people who supported him, all of them should die! I swear everyst one of them will definitely die very miserably!" Xiao Hei stood up as he screamed to the sky in a voice filled with hatred and resentment.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
BOO000000OOMM~!!!
The rumbling sounds of thunder echoed through the entire Lightwind Continent as the bright crimson blood lightning kept shing in the dark cloudy sky.
This ominous strange phenomenon which shook the entire Lightwind Continent made all people and beasts feel uneasy as if something really bad would happen.
But no one realized that the terrifying Asura Demon King had just been born into this world right at this moment!
Xiao Hei''s crimson-red demonic eyes, his extremely cold expression, and his unrestrained demonic aura mixed with intense killing intent would definitely strike fear and horror into anyone who sees him now.
"I must also investigate what exactly happened to Xiao Bai. If her death was caused by the Fox n''s negligence, then I will make sure they pay dearly for it no matter what it takes." Xiao Hei grumbled as his lonely figure disappeared in the midst of the blood rain.
.....
Actually, it was not only Xiao Hei who realized that something untoward had just happened to Tang Li Xue, some other people or beasts could also faintly sense it.
Princess Yan Fei stared at the ominous sky from the window of her room while muttering softly with an expression filled with tears: "Brother Feng..."
Bingbing still had not heard any news about Tang Li Xue yet, but she somehow became so restless and upset without any good reason.
.....
In Lizard n''s, on the top of the huge and tall mountain.
Red-Eyes Winged Lizard... or Tang Li Xue usually calls him Fake Dragon also felt as if something really important to him suddenly went missing.
"Little Lass? Is there something happening to her? No, I have to find a way to sneak out of this ce and find the news about her now~!" Red-Eyes Winged Lizard gritted his fangs in
agitation.
He was still under the strict surveince of the Lizard n after the matter of the [Sun Dragon King''s Pearl]''s birth, but he no longer cared about it right now.
Ye Zhen, or rather he should be called Death Lord now, was sitting on the top of a huge boulder while hundreds of his refined corpses and refined ghosts lined up neatly at the grass field in front of him.
There was also the Rongrong refined puppet which stood faithfully right by his side.
Ye Zhen suddenly opened his eyes as hiszy expression became extremely cold. "Something bad is happening to my Goddess Xue." Ye Zhen muttered in a tone filled with chilling killing intent.
Ye Zhen red at his army of refined corpses and refined ghosts, thenmanded: "I don''t care if you all must flip this Lightwind Continent upside down, find out all the clues and news about what happened to my Goddess Xue as soon as possible and report it back to me."
The hundreds of his refined corpses and refined ghosts bowed to Ye Zhen before they split up and carried out the task given by him.
.....
After several days of depressed journey with the warship, the surviving foxes from the exploration team along with Teacher Li Wei, Instructor Mei Lan, and Silly Fox finally returned
to Myriad Foxes Academy.
They had already reported everything with theirmunication device right after they managed to get out from the copsing Secret Realm, but only the higher-ups of Fox n knew about this news, so neither Bingbing nor Princess Yan Fei knew about it.
After all, this incident was such a shameful thing.
Losing more than half of the exploration team members was barely eptable.
But losing the veteran exploration team''s chief, Zhu Jun was so painful that it even made them hard to breathe after hearing the mourning news.
In the eyes of the Fox n''s higher-ups, they would rather lose the entire ordinary exploration team members than Zhu Jun.
In their opinion, one True Spirit Beast-level fox like Zhu Jun should be more worthy than thousands of Beast Lord-level foxes, even though Zhu Jun''s lifespan was already almost
exhausted.
If every Beast Lord-level fox had the same worthpared to a firearm, then every True Spirit Beast-level should have the same worth as a nuclear bomb.
As soon as the exploration team and Instructor Mei Lan''s group got off the warship and stepped into the Myriad Foxes Academy, they were immediately summoned by the
Bookkeeper herself.
Everyone from the exploration team including Teacher Li Wei, Instructor Mei Lan, and Silly
Fox was escorted right away to the library by the punishment officers.
The situation became really tense since they could receive heavy punishment and get imprisoned if they could not give any satisfying response to the incident.
The news they had given before could be fake after all, but they definitely could not tell any
lie in front of the Bookkeeper.
That was because Bookkeeper''s Story Book could perfectly replicate the scene that had happened to them without leaving any room to hide anything or tell any lies.
At first, they were urged to enter the library one by one, then the Bookkeeper interrogated and recorded everything that happened to them in a Story Book.
After all of them got their turn, the Bookkeeper called all of them to enter her library. Bookkeeper was still wearing her usual ck formal Qipao dress while leisurely sitting on the
sofa.
She still looked so noble and elegant like a royaldy from an aristocratic family.
Her long straight gray hair was tied in a ponytail. Even her fox ears and tails were gray colored
as usual. When she saw everyone''s tense and gloomy expression, she smiled gently at them while
saying in a soothing tone: "I have to apologize that you all have to go through this unpleasant procedure. I know all of you are still tired and in a mourning period, but this is a necessary means to make sure that all of you are really innocent."
Her gentle and kind tone made everyone''s displeasing mood fade away a lot.
If Tang Li Xue was here, she would instantly realize that Bookkeeper actually used her ability
to ease everyone''s grief and depression.
Bookkeeper politely said a few more sentences to encourage them, and their mood quickly
became much better.
After a few minutes, a voluptuous blonde fox girl entered the library looking for the
Bookkeeper.
Teacher Li Wei, Instructor Mei Lan, and Silly Fox quickly recognized her.
''Rong Jie?'' Instructor Mei Lan thought when she saw the voluptuous blonde fox girl.
"This is the Chief of the Mission Hall, Rong Jie. I asked her to check and record all foxes with
the blue names that participated in this exploration task from the stone monument." Bookkeeper exined to them.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Then Bookkeeper nodded to Rong Jie.
When everyone joined Myriad Foxes Academy, they would write down their name on the
gigantic ck stone monument.
The names written in gold meant they were healthy and alive.
The names written in red meant they were critically injured and needed medical help as soon
as possible. Lastly, the names written in blue meant they had already died.
Rong Jie politely bowed to Bookkeeper before she read the blue-colored names one by one:
"Chief of Exploration team, Zhu Jun."
Chapter 891: Xiao Heis Revenge!
891 Chapter 891: Xiao Hei''s Revenge!
"Exploration Team''s Technical Staff, Wei Kun."
"Exploration Team''s Equipment Staff, Zhou Yimo."
"Exploration Team''s Scouting Staff, Tong Miao."
"Exploration Team''s Logistic Staff, Su Ran."
...
"That''s all. My deepest condolences to you all." Rong Jie bowed again to the exploration team to express her sympathy.
Just when Rong Jie wanted to end her report...
"Wa... Wait a second~! What about Little Xue?" Instructor Mei Lan braved herself and asked with a hint of hope in her tone.
Rong Jie did not dare to immediately reply. She nced at Bookkeeper to ask for her permission.
Only after Bookkeeper nodded to give her permission did Rong Jie dare to answer Instructor Mei Lan''s question: "Your student''s sign is really strange. At first, her name had already turned blue, so I thought she should have died like the others."
Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and Silly Fox gritted their teeth in grief, but they did not hastily interrupt Rong Jie''s exnation halfway yet.
"But her name actually turned gold again after that before it changed to red then blue. This strange situation kept happening again and again until four times in only a few breaths of time. Currently, the color of your student''s name in the stone monument is... red~!" Rong Jie concluded her report in a solemn tone.
"Wh... What?! RED?! Her name is red?! So, does it mean Xue is still alive right now?!" Silly Fox shouted in a tone filled with hope, relief, and delight while stepping closer to Rong Jie.
Even Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei stared at Rong Jie with a pair of eyes filled with hope.
Rong Jie chuckled while staring at them before she nodded her head.
"Uwoohh~! I know Xue would not die that easily~!" Silly Fox jumped while screaming excitedly.
Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei sighed in relief as theyughed contentedly.
"Ho... How is it possible?! Tha... That should be impossible! How could she still survive after the secret realm copsed?! Even my father..." Zhu Zhenhua mumbled in shock and disbelief.
Her words instantly made Silly Fox get triggered, so he angrily roared at her: "You damn b*tch~! You still dare to say that?! Xue almost died because of you! How dare you..."
Before Silly Fox could finish his words, and the conflict between them got worse, Bookkeeper immediately raised her hand and interrupted them by saying: "All right, that is enough! I know you all should have undergone many unpleasant experiences in the Secret Realm, but all of you should remember that you all are still the foxes from Myriad Foxes Academy."
Bookkeeper''s voice was nice and gentle, but her tone was firm.
When all of them heard Bookkeeper''s words, they instantly woke up, and their anger vanished as if they were doused with cold water.
"I know you all must be tired since you all just got back from a long journey. You all can go back to rest now." Bookkeeper stated to end their meeting.
After Rong Jie, the exploration team, and Instructor Mei Lan''s group went out from the library, Bookkeeper took and read the report about Tang Li Xue again.
The Bookkeeper chuckled while muttering in amusement: "So, you little one can even survive from that, huh? As always, I really cannot tell if you are lucky or unlucky." n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Then Bookkeeper''s carefree expression changed to solemn as she stared at the Story Book in her grasp while mumbling: "But I truly hope you can be lucky and survive... Because it seems our time is not much anymore."
The menacing picture of a strange creature shrouded in ck fog appeared in the Story Book in Bookkeeper''s grasp.
.....
In the deste valley where the headquarter of Asura Demon Sect was located.
Thend almost turnedpletely red after being washed with a river of blood.
Hundreds or even thousands of corpses were piled up to form a mountain of corpses.
There was a handsome and masculine figure sitting leisurely on the top of that mountain of corpses.
"Sigh... This is it? I wonder why my past self was having so much difficulty facing them. My past self was truly a useless piece of trash~! No wonder my cute and beautiful Xiao Bai dumped you. You really deserve it!" Xiao Hei scolded his past self before he drank the wine in the gourd in his grasp.
Several old men flew down from the sky andnded right in front of Xiao Hei.
From their uniform, Xiao Hei could easily tell that they were actually the elders from the Asura Demon Sect.
Their cultivation level should be around the Core Formation stage.
Previously, these elders chased him and Xiao Bai around until both of them had to run away like loser dogs.
Xiao Hei clicked his tongue in anger and annoyance when he recalled his embarrassed trashy useless self. It left a really bad taste in his mouth.
"Y... Young Patriarch~?!" One of the elders muttered reflexively in surprise when he saw Xiao Hei.
"What the hell are you saying?! He is no longer our Young Patriarch. He is just a traitor!" The other elder reminded in a mocking tone.
"You evil traitor-! How dare you kill so many of our sect''s disciples! We will make sure you regret it soon!" The long-bearded elder angrily shouted to Xiao Hei.
But when they saw Xiao Hei''s pair of terrifying crimson eyes and unrestrained killing intent, they immediately flinched and unconsciously took a few steps back in fright.
Xiao Hei did not take any of them seriously at all.
For his current self, there was no difference between the Core Formation stage cultivators and Qi Condensation Stage Cultivators. He could easily kill all of them like raising his hands.
"Evil traitor? Pffft... Bwahahahaha~! Called Evil by demonic cultivators feels really funny. I don''t know if I should feel honored or insulted by it." Xiao Heiughed unbridledly.
The current unrestrained and evil looking Xiao Hei surely looked much more charming and attractive than before, but his mood also becamepletely unpredictable.
Just like now, he justughed happily a second ago, but suddenly...
PUFF~! PUFF~!
He flicked his finger twice and shot condensed crimson light energy toward two elders!
The heads of the two elders exploded, and they died instantly before they could react or understand what just happened.
"You little bast*rd~! DIE~!" The other elders roared in great rage as they took out their spirit weapons from their spatial rings andunched their attacks on Xiao Hei.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Before their attacks could touch him, Xiao Hei unleashed the pressure from his cultivation which was many times stronger than even any ordinary great perfection of the Nascent Soul Stage cultivators!
Their attacks fell onto the ground before they could reach Xiao Hei while the Asura Demon Sect''s elders fell powerlessly onto their knees.
No matter how much they tried to struggle, they still could not muster any strength to get up or move around freely.
Fear and helplessness seeped into their heart as cold sweat drenched their face and back.
"I... I am so sorry, Young Patriarch~! I... I was actually your fanatic supporter before, but I got forced by the others! It... It was really not my fault! So please, Young Patriarch... Please forgive me and don''t kill me!" A timid elder immediately gave up and begged Xiao Hei for mercy.
"You damn coward, how could you give up to that traitor just like that?! Sect Patriarch would never forgive you!" The other elder angrily yelled.
Those elders began to argue with each other while Xiao Hei chuckled in amusement instead.
"The people from Asura Demon Sect are really as hrious as ever. But this Asura Demon Sect was my previous sect, and all of you were my subordinates before, so I am also quite reluctant to kill all of you. How about this... I will only let one of you go, so you can decide which one of you will live." Xiao Hei smiled and muttered in a kind tone.
Anyone smarter would realize that his words should be deceptive like deadly poison coated in honey, but a sliver of hope was rekindled in those elders'' hearts after they heard it.
"I... I am the youngest one. I am only 382 years, so..."
"What are you talking about?! It is because you are the youngest, you have to give in to those who are more senior like me!"
"I have contributed the most for Asura Demon Sect so far!"
The elders began to argue with each other for a while before one of them...
PUFF~!
One of the elders actually stabbed the other elder with his spirit weapon from behind!
"You damn bast*rd~!"
Then the Asura Demon Sect''s elders began to fight fiercely among themselves while Xiao Hei watched them with a bloodthirsty cold sneer on his handsome face.
If Tang Li Xue saw her current Xiao Hei, she might not be able to recognize him anymore.
After a few minutes, only one elder was still standing alive while the others had already turned into cold corpses.
But he was injured quite badly, and even his missing right arm kept bleeding a lot.
"Young Patriarch, I... I did it~!" Thest elder happily said to Xiao Hei.
"Oh, really? Then good job~! Congrattions~! You can go now." Xiao Hei replied in a cold tone.
The elder sighed in relief after he heard Xiao Hei''s words.
He was really afraid that Xiao Hei would go back on his words, so he quickly flew away using his flying treasure.
However, before he could go far...
POOOFF~!
A huge pitch-ck muscr demon with a pair of demonic horns and bat-like wings suddenly appeared and killed that elder in one p like killing a powerless mosquito.
"Opps~! So sorry... I guess my Asura Demon God''s Avatar thought a mosquito was passing by just now." Xiao Heizily exined with a cold sneer on his handsome face.
Xiao Hei did not n to go after killing all of Asura Demon Sect''s elders.
He still waited patiently for ten more minutes or so before the people he was looking for finally came to him!
So sorry for thete update. There was a power outage at my ce for an entire day, so I could not finish this chapter yesterday. I will try to make up for itter. (>w<)
godadi
Chapter 892: One Against Three!
892 Chapter 892: One Against Three!
Three people hovered in the sky while looking down coldly at Xiao Hei who still sat leisurely on the mountain of corpses.
"Yo~! Isn''t this my beloved grandfather and uncle? And... Errm, who are you again?" Xiao Heiughed while looking upward to take a look at his grandfather, Mo Chanming, and his uncle, Mo Chonglin.
As for the third person, he should also be an important person from the Asura Demon Sect, but strangely, Xiao Hei had never seen him before.
"You abominable unfilial child, how dare you do this to the people from your own sect?!" Mo Chanming angrily criticized Xiao Hei.
"Eh, What? My own sect? Pffft~ Bwahahahaha~! You are really so funny, Grandpa! I always wonder why you chose that trashy uncle over me before. Now I know that the reason should be because you have gone senile long ago." Xiao Heiughed so hard while mocking Mo Chanming.
"You damn..." Mo Chanming gnashed his teeth in great rage, but when he wanted to scold Xiao Hei again, the unknown old man raised his hand to stop Mo Chanming.
Xiao Hei squinted his eyes as he stared at the unknown old man and thought: ''This person canmand that senile old Mo Chanming to in only one gesture. He should be the most important person in the Asura Demon Sect. Hehehe, I see... So, his identity should be the Asura Demon Sect''s old ancestor, Mo Desheng.''
Xiao Hei''s expression turned even more frosty when he realized that he was only a puppet patriarch raised by the Asura Demon Sect to nurture Mo Chonglin from the very start.
He had never even seen or met with this Asura Demon Sect''s old ancestor, Mo Desheng, since he was born, but Mo Chonglin could easily hang around him like his own little grandchild.
When Xiao Hei thought that he lost his Xiao Bai because of these heartless scheming people, he almost could not hold down his urge to tear them up to pieces and burn their souls to ashes.
Mo Desheng did not know yet what was Xiao Hei thinking in his mind. He smiled kindly at Xiao Hei and said: "My great-great-grandchild, I am your ancestor, Mo Desheng. Having another Nascent Soul Stage expert like you is truly a great blessing for our Asura Demon Sect."
"I know you had some disputes with Ming''er and Lin''er before, but that was all in the past. How about this, if you still want to be the young Patriarch of our Asura Demon Sect, I can give the position back to you. I think you..."
However, Xiao Hei''s patience had begun to run out when he heard Mo Desheng''s pointless long preaching.
18:57
What he really wanted was not Mo Desheng''s meaningless preaching but for Mo Chanming and Mo Chonglin to kneel and apologize to him before he killed them after torturing them slowly.
"All right, that is enough~! I do not want to hear your useless talk anymore. You only said this after everything had happened. Where are you when those two bast*rds almost killed me?! What a hypocritical senile old ancestor! I have already had enough of you all, the hypocritical swindlers from the Asura Demon Sect." Xiao Hei muttered coldly in a tone filled with rage and killing intent.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Xiao Hei''s body slowly hovered and soared toward the sky as the extremely terrifying powerful pressure burst out from his body.
"Great Perfection of Nascent Soul Stage?! Impossible~! How could it be?!" Mo Chonglin gnashed his teeth and yelled in a tone filled with anger and disbelief when he managed to sense the terrifying powerful pressure from Xiao Hei''s cultivation.
"How could it be?! Have I really been making the wrong choice all this time?" Mo Chanming murmured in a surprised and regretful tone.
Mo Desheng, Mo Chanming, and Mo Chonglin also quickly unleashed the pressure from their cultivation base to resist Xiao Hei''s pressure.
Mo Chonglin''s cultivation base was the lowest among them. He was only in the early Nascent Soul Stage.
Mo Chanming''s cultivation level was at the high level of the Nascent Soul Stage, probably at the seventh or eighth rank of the Nascent Soul Stage.
But Mo Desheng''s cultivation level was on the same level as Xiao Hei''s, both of them were at the Great Perfection of Nascent Soul Stage!
Moreover, Mo Desheng''s strength should be much stronger than any ordinary great perfection of the Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, but unfortunately, his lifespan seemed to be almostpletely exhausted.
Mo Desheng might not even be able to live for more than a decade.
No wonder they were so desperate to nurture the other Nascent Soul Stage cultivator for the Asura Demon Sect to the point that they were cruel enough to use Xiao Hei as the whetstone for Mo Chonglin.
''This old annoying senile guy is quite strong. It seems I need to fight more seriously today. This should be a good chance to test the full strength of my newly awakened power.'' Xiao Hei thought as his expression turned cold and solemn when he faced the three of them.
Mo Desheng sighed in disappointment as he tried to persuade Xiao Hei again: "It really saddened me greatly that we should end up fighting among ourselves meaninglessly like this. My dear great-great-grandson, it is not toote for you to regret it ande back to our side."
"What?" Mo Desheng asked curiously.
"Do you know my name, my dear ancestor?" Xiao Hei asked.
"That is..." Mo Desheng instantly got stumped.
Xiao Hei chuckled while saying in a mocking tone: "You do not even know my name yet you always call me your dear great-great-grandson this and that. Just how shameless are you, old man~?!"
Mo Desheng''s expression turned cold as he shouted: "Kill him now~!"
Apparently, Mo Chanming and Mo Chonglin took the chance when Mo Desheng distracted Xiao Hei''s attention by surrounding Xiao Hei from three different directions!
When they heard Mo Desheng''s shout, Mo Chanming and Mo Chonglin summoned out their martial souls and merged their martial souls with their weapons while flying swiftly toward Xiao Hei from his side and back! N?v(el)B\\jnn
Mo Desheng also charged forward to face Xiao Hei from the front head-on!
Xiao Hei sneered fearlessly while insulting them: "Everyone from the Asure Demon Sect was still as cunning and shameless as ever."
Then he finally raised his hands to face the three people from the Asura Demon Sect...
[Heaven Splitting Wave]~!
BOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Mo Chanming and Mo Chonglin were thrown down until they crashed heavily onto the ground.
BANG~! BANG~!
"PUUUUFF~!" Both Mo Chanming and Mo Chonglin spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood, but Mo Chonglin''s injuries were a lot worse than Mo Chanming''s because his cultivation was the lowest among them.
Only Mo Desheng could fight face-to-face against Xiao Hei without being injured.
Despite both of them being at the Great Perfection of Nascent Soul Stage, Xiao Hei bounced back five meters after their violent head-on sh, while Mo Desheng was thrown back more than ten meters.
It was clear that Xiao Hei was a little bit strongerpared to Mo Desheng.
Mo Desheng was also aware of it since his first attack was only to gause how strong Xiao Heipared to himself.
So, Mo Desheng immediately decided to also summon out his martial soul to fight Xiao Hei.
"KKEEAAAAK~!"
Mo Desheng''s martial soul was a white falcon shrouded in white lightning!
The White Lightning Falcon looked really noble and majestic like the king of the sky.
Different from the others, Mo Desheng''s White Lightning Falcon was actually merged with his own body!
Mo Desheng''s white hair and beard transformed into white lightning, and even Mo Desheng''s entire body was shrouded in dense white lightning!
"Hoo, not bad! It seems I have to add something more to keep up with you. Come out~!" Xiao Hei muttered when he saw Mo Desheng''s transformation.
Asura Demon Sect''s true inheritance Technique - Asura Demon God''s Avatar~!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
The space around Xiao Hei was distorted as a more than one hundred meters tall muscr pitch-ck demon with a pair of demonic horns and bat-like wings suddenly appeared behind him!
Mo Desheng shed toward Xiao Hei while throwing his palm toward Xiao Hei!
The ultimate level of [Heaven Splitting Wave]~!
Xiao Hei had to admit that Mo Desheng''s [Heaven Splitting Wave] had far surpassed him and reached the ultimate transcendence level, but Xiao Hei did not n to face Mo Desheng''s attack by himself.
His more than one hundred meters tall [Asura Demon God''s Avatar] threw a heavy punch to meet Mo Desheng''s ultimate level of [Heaven Splitting Wave]!
BOOOOOOOOOOM~!!!
Just when Xiao Hei''s [Asura Demon God''s Avatar] took a step back while Mo Desheng was thrown off farther, both Mo Chanming and Mo Chonglinunched another simultaneous sneak attack at Xiao Hei from his right and left sides!
"You two meddlesome weaklings are really annoying! Come, [Nine Petals Blood Lotus]~!" Xiao Hei angrily shouted.
Therge [Nine Petals Blood Lotus] above Elder Yang shone brightly with the eerie crimson light that illuminated the entire sky!
Then the dazzling [Nine Petal Blood Lotus] turned into a crimson blood sword and flew to Elder Yang''s hand!
CLANG~! BANG~!
Xiao Hei shed the crimson blood sword in his grasp to repel Mo Chanming and Mo Chonglin.
So much blood that spilled out from the corpses or scattered on the ground suddenly floated up under the control of Xiao Hei''s crimson blood sword!
That blood transformed into thousands of blood swords that were flying around Xiao Hei like a river of blood swords!
Chapter 893: Uninvited Guest!
Chapter 893: Uninvited Guest!
The river made from thousands of blood swords rained down upon Mo Chanming and Mo Chonglin mercilessly under Xiao Hei''s control!
Mo Chanming and Mo Chonglin immediately unleashed their defensive spirit treasures and defensive spells to block Xiao Hei''s thousands of blood swords!
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Unfortunately, those were far from enough to defend against Xiao Hei''s attack! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
With his [Nine Petals Blood Lotus] reinforced by his partially awakened Asura Demon God bloodline plus the power of Blood Snake of Lust, Xiao Hei''s current strength had reached an unimaginable level!
Even if Instructor Mei Lan fought with all of her strength against the current Xiao Hei, she might no longer have any chance of winning anymore.
all of Mo Chanming and Mo Chonglin''s defensive spirit treasures and defensive spells were shattered like fragile porcin, but just when the thousands of blood swords almost reached them, Mo Desheng hastily made a move to save them!
Mo Desheng abandoned his fight against Xiao Hei''s Asura Demon God''s Avatar as his body which was covered in dazzling white lightning rushed toward Mo Chanming and Mo Chonglin with a breakneck speed!
BOOOOOOOOOOM~!
Mo Desheng managed to repel Xiao Hei''s thousands of blood swords with his white lightning barrage right before they could pierce Mo Chanming and Mo Chonglin''s bodies.
Xiao Hei smirked coldly as he mocked Mo Desheng: "It seems those two burdens are too heavy for you to carry. How about I help you to take your burdens off?"
Mo Desheng gritted his teeth in rage while yelling: "You unfilial brat, how could you want to kill your own family?!"
"Pffft~! My own family?! Hahahahaha! Now I finally know that the Mo Family''s shamelessness is actually inherited from you." Xiao Heiughed while ridiculing Mo Desheng.
The angry Mo Deshengunched another fierce lightning attack at Xiao Hei, but Xiao Hei''s Asura Demon God''s Avatar only needed to stretch its enormous hand and easily managed to block it.
While Xiao Hei himself swung the crimson blood sword in his grasp, then thousands of blood swords under his control scattered in the sky andpletely surrounded Mo Desheng, Mo Chanming, and Mo Chonglin from all directions!
Just like before, Mo Desheng nned to repelXiao Hei''s thousands of blood swords using his white lightning, but he was really wrong this time.
Xiao Hei never nned to use the same strategy again after it had previously failed!
The thousands of blood swords actually transformed back into ordinary blood in liquid form and rained down Mo Desheng, Mo Chanming, and Mo Chonglin!
"What the hell are you..." Mo Chanming asked in a suspicious tone.
"Not good~!" The smart and cunning Mo Chonglin immediately realized what Xiao Hei wanted to do, but it was already toote for him to do anything to wipe out the blood.
Xiao Hei''s devil-likeugh echoed in their ears as he whispered to them: "This is for my father and mother..."
PUUFF~! PUUFF~! PUUFF~! PUUFF~!
The blood that waspletely soaking Mo Desheng, Mo Chanming, and Mo Chonglin''s bodies solidified into dozens of spikes and pierced their bodies!
"This is for ying with my life and ruining my life..." Xiao Hei muttered again in a tone colder than ice.
Those blood nails which were actually mixed with Blood Snake of Lust and the power of his [Nine Petals Blood Lotus] transformed back into liquid and seeped into their bodies!
Then those blood turned into countless blood needles that circted in their bodies!
"AAARRRGHH~!"
"AAAAGGGHHHH, SO PAINFUL~!"
Mo Desheng, Mo Chanming, and Mo Chonglin fell to the ground while screaming and writhing in extreme pain.
"Lastly, this is for my beloved Xiao Bai..." Xiao Hei said when the crimson hue in his eyes shone even more intensely as his killing intent and rage reached their peak.
PUUFF~! PUUFF~! PUUFF~!
The countless blood needles in their bodies transformed back to liquid form and mixed with their own blood, then all the blood in their bodies flowed out until their bodies turned into dried corpses.
However, it was not enough to kill them because the souls of Nascent Soul Stage cultivators were so powerful, so they could still remain alive even if they lost their bodies.
They only needed to find new bodies to possess and re-cultivate from the start!
Of course, Xiao Hei also knew about that, so he already made enough preparations.
When Mo Desheng, Mo Chanming, and Mo Chonglin flew out from their dead bodies and nned to run away from Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei hastily urged his Asura Demon God''s Avatar to catch their souls.
Xiao Hei chuckled cruelly as he took a strangemp from his spatial ring.
Then Xiao Hei sealed Mo Desheng, Mo Chanming, and Mo Chonglin''s souls into the strangemp while exining to them: "This treasure is called Soul Burning Lamp. It will burn your soul slowly like oil until your soul copsespletely into nothingness. You three do not need to thank me, you all can enjoy it well."
The pain from their bare soul burning in the Soul Burning Lamp''s strange me was a hundred times more painful than just cutting their flesh or breaking their bones.
Xiao Hei could faintly hear the excruciating screams of Mo Desheng, Mo Chanming, and Mo Chonglin from the sealed Soul Burning Lamp, but he did not feel any pity for them at all.
On the contrary, their miserable painful screams had be his only motivation to keep staying alive in this world after losing his Xiao Bai.
At least, he would never think to kill himself until Mo Desheng, Mo Chanming, and Mo Chonglin''s soulspletely disappear into nothingness.
"Now then... What should I do? Sigh..." Just when Xiao Hei pondered what he needed to do next, he suddenly sensed something.
"Who is there?! You bettere out now before I lose my patience." Xiao Hei said in a nonchnt tone.
CLAP~! CLAP~! CLAP~! CLAP~!
The person in hiding came out from behind the nearby building while pping his hands and saying: "Well, well, well... It seems I have to congratte my beloved teacher to finally exact his revenge. Congrattions~!"
Xiao Hei''s expression turned cold as he emitted thick killing intent from his body and asked: "You little bast*rd, how dare you appear in front of me again? Do you really want to die in my hands so badly?"
Yes, the one who came to visit Xiao Hei was actually Ye Zhen... or he should be called Death Lord right now!
"Of course~ not! I just want to see you like a good filial student wants to visit his teacher, is it really that uneptable?" Ye Zhen replied, but his tone was half joking and half mocking.
"I see... So you really want to die in my hands so badly, then I will fulfill yourst request right now-!" Xiao Hei angrily roared as his body shed toward Ye Zhen like a streak of crimson lightning!
But before Xiao Hei could reach Ye Chen, a woman shrouded in a ck cloak suddenly blocked his way!
"Rongrong?!" Xiao Hei eximed and widened his eyes in surprise.
However, the current Xiao Hei was no longer the previous Elder Yang. He no longer cared or had any feelings for Rongrong, Immortal Sword Sect, or any sympathy.
[Heaven Splitting Wave]~!
BAAAAAANG~!
Rongrong tried to counterattack with her [Torrential Sword sh], but Xiao Hei''s current strength was way too powerfulpared to her, so she was thrown off more than a hundred meters until she crashed into dozens of Asura Demon Sect''s buildings before her body embedded deeply into the cliff.
"Impossible~! I had already spent so many resources to increase Rongrong''s cultivation level to the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Stage! How could she be defeated so easily?!" Ye Chen blurted in shock and disbelief.
Before Ye Chen could do anything, Xiao Hei''s menacing figure radiating with intense killing intent had already stood right in front of him.
Then Xiao Hei grabbed Ye Chen''s neck with only his right hand and slowly lifted him up until his feet could no longer touch the ground.
No matter how Ye Chen tried to struggle to free himself, it was all only futile efforts. Xiao Hei''s hand was like a firm and unshakeable dragon w while Ye Chen felt as if he had be a powerless deer.
Xiao Hei could easily kill Ye Chen with the power of his Blood Snake of Lust, but Xiao Hei''s current ckened and distorted mind wanted to see Ye Chen''s despaired expression right before he died.
Fortunately, Ye Chen had already prepared a n B if the situation went awry.
"She... the fox goddess... is... still... alive..." Ye Chen muttered with great difficulty as he got suffocated.
Xiao Hei almost subconsciously squeezed and broke Ye Chen''s neck when he heard Ye Chen''s words.
He hastily loosened his grip until Ye Chen fell onto the ground.
"Cough, cough, cough... Huff, huff, huff... Cough, cough..." When Ye Chen was coughing and breathing heavily, Xiao Hei did not give Ye Chen any time to recover or take a breath as he grabbed Ye Chen''s cor and pulled Ye Chen up forcefully toward him.
"Wha... What did you just say?! You did not lie to me, right? Because I will make your life worse than death if you dare to lie to me about that!" Xiao Hei yelled impatiently at Ye Chen, but his anxious and cold tone was mixed with hope and expectation.
Right at this moment, Rongrong corpse puppet already stood back up and rushed toward Xiao Hei again.
But Ye Chen quickly raised his hand to stop Rongrong corpse puppet before she could attack Xiao Hei again.
Since he already knew Xiao Hei was so much stronger than his Rongrong corpse puppet, trying to keep fighting against Xiao Hei would be the same as courting death.
Besides that, his objective ining here to meet Xiao Hei was not to kill or fight against Xiao Hei.
Chapter 894: Systems Hint!
Chapter 894: System''s Hint!
After Ye Chen calmed down his breath, he began to exin to Xiao Hei: "I have a technique called [Soul Inquiry]. It is a technique to temporarily establish a connection with the soul of the dead creatures and ask them about any information they knew when they were still alive."
"I tried to use this [Soul Inquiry] to establish a connection with Fox Goddess, but surprisingly, it failed, and I had already tried so many times." Ye Chen concluded his exnation as Xiao Hei loosened his grasp on Ye Chen''s cor and finally let him go.
When Ye Chen took a nce at Xiao Hei''s expression, he was agape in shock as he saw tears flowing profusely from Xiao Hei''s eyes.
"You..." Ye Chen almost blurted out his mock, but he immediately swallowed it back. His life was in Xiao Hei''s hands right now after all.
It would be bad if Xiao Hei decided to silence him forever after he saw Xiao Hei''s crying face.
"So, Xiao Bai... is still alive..." Xiao Hei muttered in a tone filled with expectation and joy, even the murderous and eerie crimson light in his eyes faded away a lotpared to before.
If he was like a bloodthirsty demon king before, then he currently looked like a pitiful man who was missing his beloved one.
"Ca... Can you please tell wh... where is she?" Xiao Hei asked stutteringly in excitement.
Ye Chen smiled at Xiao Hei and replied in a rxed tone: "That is the reason why I came to you. I do not know where she is right now."
"But one thing is for sure. Since both of us had a bad hunch about her, and we can no longer sense her anymore right now, it means something bad really happened to her, and she is probably no longer in this Lightwind Continent at present." Ye Chen added again in a sure tone.
"Something bad really happened to her, and she is no longer in this Lightwind Continent?!" Xiao Hei murmured as he frowned deeply in thought.
Then Xiao Hei red sharply at Ye Chen and asked in a cold tone: "What do you want from me?"
Xiao Hei instantly understood what was in Ye Chen''s mind.
Since Ye Chen came to find him, it meant he should need something crucial from him.
Ye Chen smiled brightly after he heard Xiao Hei''s question. He thought it was really pleasant to talk to a smart guy because he could read his intentions so quickly.
"I need information about Fox n. You should have met with the Fox Goddess''s close friends before, right?" Ye Chen stated his objective honestly without hiding it.
"I see, so you want to find the information about her from the Fox n. Not a bad n..." Xiao Hei squinted his eyes and muttered before he stopped paying attention to Ye Chen and turned around, then flew away from the ruined Asura Demon Sect''s headquarters.
"I need information about Fox n. You should have met with the Fox Goddess''s close friends before, right?" Ye Chen stated his objective honestly without hiding it.
"I see, so you want to find the information about her from the Fox n. Not a bad n..." Xiao Hei squinted his eyes and muttered before he stopped paying attention to Ye Chen and turned around, then flew away from the ruined Asura Demon Sect''s headquarters.
Some disciples or elders of the Asura Demon Sect might still remain alive there, but he did not have the mood or time to massacre them all since his entire mind was too busy thinking about how he should ask about Tang Li Xue from the other foxes such as Instructor Mei Lan, Silly Fox, and so on.
Xiao Hei knew that they clearly did not see him as a good person after theirst unpleasant encounter, so it should be hard for him to ask anything from them.
Xiao Hei already had a huge headache just imagining it, but he had no other choice since he could only find information about Tang Li Xue from them.
"Hey, wait~!" Ye Chen called out loud as he urged Rongrong corpse puppet to carry him and chase after Xiao Hei together.
.....
Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan and Silly Fox also had a terrible headache in the Myriad Foxes Academy right now.
They felt really relieved after they found out that Tang Li Xue was still alive, but unfortunately, they were currently grounded in the Myriad Foxes Academy until all of the information about the secret realm copse along with the victims was fully confirmed.
It might only take a week to a month for the investigation teams sent by the Fox n toplete their investigation, but the anxious Instructor Mei Lan and Silly Fox clearly did not want to waste their time waiting for that long!
Not to mention that Tang Li Xue''s name was written in red on the mysterious stone monument which meant she was currently critically injured and needed medical help as soon as possible!
Silly Fox impatiently walked back and forth in the luxurious resting hall of the Residential Building.
"Can you please chill down a bit?! Walking back and forth so fast in front of me like that will only make me dizzy and unable to think!" Instructor Mei Lan scolded Silly Fox in annoyance.
"Instructor Lan~! Is there really nothing we can do to get out from this Myriad Foxes Academy and look for Xue?!" Silly Fox anxiously asked Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her beautiful eyes and replied: "You have already asked that hundreds of times in these few days until my ears have callouses!"
"But... But even that crazy Princess and Ice Girl keep asking about Xue, and we have to avoid them by hiding here!" Silly Fox protested again.
They were not allowed to disclose any information about the secret realm copse and the victims, so they could not tell anything to Princess Yan Fei and Bingbing for now.
Unfortunately, Princess Yan Fei and Bingbing would not give up after Instructor Mei Lan and Silly Fox exined that to them.
Since Princess Yan Fei and Bingbing kept forcing them to tell about what had happened to Tang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan and Silly Fox could only try to avoid meeting those two for now.
Instructor Mei Lan shrugged her shoulder as she could only sigh in resignation.
Instructor Mei Lan tried to calm down Silly Fox by saying: "You do not have to worry too much about Little Xue. The investigation teams sent by Fox n should be the elite ones. They should be able to find Little Xue and rescue her soon."
Silly Fox was not calmed down and became even more worried as he asked while gnashing his teeth: "What if even they could not find any clues about Xue''s whereabouts?!"
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes again and asked: "So what?! Do you think you can do better jobs than them?"
"That... I..." Silly Fox was instantly silenced by Instructor Mei Lan''s merciless question.
"Making any rash move at this point would not help Little Xue at all. On the contrary, we would only make the situation worse if we abandoned the strict order from above and escaped from this Myriad Foxes Academy in order to blindly look for Little Xue." Instructor Mei Lan exined to Silly Fox.
"We might even bebeled as the rebelster, be the fugitives, and be hunted down by the entire Fox n! Do you really those to happen?!" Instructor Mei Lan coldly rebuked Silly Fox.
"Urgh, that..." Silly Fox flinched before he sat weakly on the sofa in disappointment.
It really could not be helped since there was still a chance for them to kill everyone to seize the treasures they got from the Secret Realm.
Not to mention that losing one True Spirit Beast was truly painful for Fox n, so Fox n needed to make sure that they were really ''clean'' and everything happened just like what they had been described.
Of course, the chance for that to happen was minuscule, especially after the Bookkeeper interrogated all of them personally.
But the Fox n still needed to do the formal investigation and sent their elite investigation teams to inspect the location where the incident urred.
Until the elite investigation teamspleted their task and came back, all of the surviving exploration team members including Teacher Li Wei, Instructor Mei Lan, and Silly Fox were not allowed to go out from the Myriad Foxes Academy.
.....
When everyone was worriedly and anxiously looking for Tang Li Xue''s whereabouts, who knew the current Tang Li Xue was actually sitting leisurely in the luxurious carriage with a handsome man?!
The handsome man kept staring at Tang Li Xue''s fairy-like stunning beautiful face with an obsessed look, while Tang Li Xue boredly stared out from the carriage window, but her face was much paler than usual.
''Sigh, how the heck it could end up like this?!'' Tang Li Xue sighed helplessly.
As for the reason why she could end up like this, let''s return to a few days ago after the entire Secret Realmpletely copsed.
Before Tang Li Xue couldpletely be submerged into the Void Space and disappear into nothingness, her System suddenly said itsst goodbye to her.
[Goodbye, Host... Unless you have extremely good luck, it should be impossible for you to survive in this kind of situation.]
Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes again as she really wanted to curse her System so badly for onest time. N?v(el)B\\jnn
However, her topaz blue eyes were suddenly shining in excitement!
"Hahaha, I get it~! Thank you very much, System~! You are really my favorite System~!" Tang Li Xue praised as she took something out of her System''s space.
[Humph~!]
Yes, Tang Li Xue actually took out herst [Greater Lucky Sticker] from her System''s space!
This [Greater Lucky Sticker] was herst hope to survive this extremely dire situation ording to the hint given by her System!
Tang Li Xue hastily stuck the [Greater Lucky Sticker] onto her body without any hesitation before it was toote!
Chapter 895: Chance Encounter!
895 Chapter 895: Chance Encounter!
Tang Li Xue could only silently pray that the [Greater Lucky Sticker] buff would give her a glimmer of hope to survive this life-threatening disaster.
Of course, she would not sit there quietly just waiting to die!
She would do everything to survive until herst drop of blood!
Tang Li Xue, who was still in her fox form, gnashed her fangs as she made ast request to her system: ''System, can you please let me temporarily put my space pouch into your storage space? There are a lot of important treasures inside it, so I do not want any of them to fall into the Void Space.''
Normally, her System''s storage could only be used to store the items she obtained from the System.
But Tang Li Xue did not want her important items such as her [Sword of Disaster] which Xi''er''s spirit was still sleeping inside or [Huang Family Heirloom Ring] she obtained from Xiao Hei to get lost in the Void Space.
Luckily, her System was quite considerate at this moment, and it did not bother to make things difficult for Tang Li Xue.
[No problem.]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief as she hastily put away her space pouch into her System''s storage.
When Tang Li Xue''s entire body fell into the Void Space, she immediately activated [Sun And Moon Aegis''s Protection]!
(Sun And Moon Aegis''s Protection: Grant 2 seconds of invulnerability.)
"Damn it~! I only have 2 seconds! Is there something I can do to get out of this damn Void Space?!" Tang Li Xue angrily cursed as she looked around to find something to save her life.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue was quite pessimistic in her heart right now...
Her three times [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s deadly blow protections had already been used up, and she had used her perfect copy to activate [Merge] skill in order to boost her strength when she tried to escape from the monstrous creature before.
Just like she had estimated, everything including all space fragments that fell into Void Space had disappeared into nothingness like bursting soap bubbles.
Just looking at those scenes made Tang Li Xue feel really dreadful and afraid. She even began to imagine that her entire body would soon burst into nothingness like those things!
"No~! No way~! I am someone who will be Fox Deity in the future, so how could I die so tragically like that?! Think Tang Li Xue, there must be something you can do to save yourself!" Tang Li Xue gritted her fangs anxiously.
Unfortunately, she still could not find anything inside the Void Space after two seconds of time was up!
She could only see a gray color filling her entire vision in this Void Space. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even her [Extrasensory Perception] could only let her sense an extremely dangerous feeling around her without giving her any solution to get out of this dire situation.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only decide to use her other divine ability to stall for more time!
[Ster Banishment]~!
(Ster Banishment: Borrowing the power of the stars to temporarily banish any target to the empty starry sky. The duration of the Ster Banishment depends on the difference between the strength of the user and the target.)
By temporarily banishing herself to the empty starry sky, Tang Li Xue could buy a little more time for herself to take a breath, at least she would be safe for a dozen breaths or so. Every passing second made the despair and helplessness in Tang Li Xue''s heart grow increasingly stronger.
Just when Tang Li Xue was thinking very hard about what she had to do next...
*Ding!
----------------------------------------------------
[Star Treasure Hunting in Secret Realm Quest has beenpleted!]
[Gained: Level +4 (+1), Stat Point +1000 (+250), Skill Point +500 (+125), 4000 (+1000) Deity Coins]
[Additional Reward: None.]
----------------------------------------------------
*Ding!
[Congrattion! You have reached level 2! Stat Point +300, Skill Point +50]
[Congrattion! You have reached level 3! Stat Point +300, Skill Point +50]
[Congrattion! You have reached level 4! Stat Point +300, Skill Point +50]
[Congrattion! You have reached level 5! Stat Point +300, Skill Point +50]
[Congrattion! You have reached level 6! Stat Point +300, Skill Point +50]
----------------------------------------------------
At first, Tang Li Xue was very delighted when she heard the notification notice from her System, so she quickly checked the quest rewards she just got while hoping that she would get some crucial items to help her get out of this dire situation.
22:38
But when she saw that she received no additional reward other than some levels, Stat Points, Skill Points, and Deity Coins, she instantly became extremely angry at her System.
"You damn System, how could I not get any additional rewards afterpleting this quest?! I clearly had obtained so many Star Treasures in the Secret Realm!" Tang Li Xue protested to her System in great rage.
[It is because Host has used all the Star Treasures for Host''s evolution in the Secret Realm.]
[This System only counts all the Star Treasures that the Host managed to bring out of the Secret Realm.]
Tang Li Xue really wanted to curse and scold her System so badly, but it was clearly not the right time to do that.
She took a deep breath to calm down as she hastily added all of her free Stat Points to her Toughness Stats in order to increase her survivability,
Free Stat Points: 4,804 --> 0
Toughness: 12,000 --> 16,804
HP: 360,000/360,000 --> 505,000/505,000
After her evolution from [Umon] Grade Beast to [Rare] Grade Beast, all of her stats had increased from a mere 5,000 to the staggering amount of 12,000!
Even her previous maximum HP capacity of 99,999 had also instantly reached 360,000.
Tang Li Xue deliberately added all of her free Stat Points to Toughness Stat, so her defense, maximum HP, and HP regeneration would increase significantly.
Of course, that certainly would not mean much if she gotpletely submerged in the Void Space since she would definitely still disappear into nothingness in the end.
However, Tang Li Xue really hoped that she would at leastst for a few seconds longer with her current high HP, defense, and Toughness stat.
Unfortunately, her current Skill Points were not enough to buy any defense-type divine ability, or she would surely spend all of it to buy several defense-type divine abilities.
"All right, I have already done everything I can... Now everything depends on fate. I wish the [Greater Lucky Sticker] buff could really bring me a surprise." Tang Li Xue muttered in a helpless tone.
Without realizing it, the duration of [Ster Banishment] was already up, and Tang Li Xue was sent back to the Void Space!
But this time, she no longer had any life-saving skills to protect herself!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs as she quickly unleashed all of her defensive skills!
[Reflective Barrier]~!
Transparent Barrier created with [Energy Maniption]~!
Twoyers of defense were instantly deployed by Tang Li Xue in order to defend against the violent space energy storm in the Void Space!
Unfortunately, it was only a futile effort...
How could the violent space energy storm in the Void Space that could even destroy the space fragments and all beings be defended so easily with such defensive skills?!
Both [Reflective Barrier] and Transparent Barrier created with [Energy Maniption] were crushed in an instant!
Even Tang Li Xue''s entire furry body was disintegrated into nothingness like a bursting soap bubble!
Then an ugly-looking straw doll suddenly appeared and shattered after recing Tang Li Xue''s ce.
Tang Li Xue had just spent her first [Substitute Doll] to rece her first death.
Normally, Tang Li Xue should be automatically teleported randomly in a radius of dozens of miles away, but in a chaotic ce like this Void Space, no one could tell where was east, west, or south since everywhere looked the same as if they were trapped in the boundless distorted gray space.
Before giving Tang Li Xue any chance to take a breath or think of any solution, her silver furry body had already disintegrated again into nothingness for the second time.
What Tang Li Xue did not know was that someone actually secretly watching her in amusement right now?!
"Eh? Is that a fox? How can there be a fox in the Void Space?" A masculine voice murmured in an amused tone.
A man hovered closer to Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue could not even notice his presence at all as if that man did not exist.
If Tang Li Xue could see this man, she would certainly drop her jaw and be agape in shock and disbelief.
How could there be a creature that could roam freely in an extremely dangerous ce such as this Void Space?!
But the man''s entire body was wrapped in the mysterious indestructible sword energy so that even the devastatingly destructive and powerful space energy storm could not affect him.
There should be no creature that can travel freely in the Void Space filled with space energy storms, but there was an exception to that rule.
Sovereign Gods!
Only someone at the Sovereign Gods could travel freely in the Void Space and remainpletely unaffected by the space energy storms!
If Sovereign Gods fought against each other in the Immortal World, they would cause irreversible devastating damage everywhere, so Sovereign Gods usually always fought in this empty Void Space instead to avoid that.
Since this man could roam freely in the Void Space, it could only mean that he was actually one of twelve Sovereign Gods!
Right now, this man observed Tang Li Xue curiously after he saw Tang Li Xue''s silver furry body disintegrate into nothingness, but reced by [Substitute Doll], then she was resurrected again while getting teleported.
Woah, our Tang Li Xue actually met someone unexpected~! (>w<) We will see in the next chapter if Tang Li Xue could survive in the end, lol!
Chapter 896: Barely Survived Tang Li Xue!
896 Chapter 896: Barely Survived Tang Li Xue!
It kept repeating again and again for the second time, then for the third time...
The man did not intend to make any move to help Tang Li Xue at all.
He only leisurely pinched his chin with a curious smile on his handsome face and watched Tang Li Xue''s solo performance in amusement.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue realized that she definitely could onlyst for a few more breaths at most even if she had done everything she could to survive longer.
Rather than dying as a pitiful fox, Tang Li Xue would rather choose to die in her most beautiful human form.
So, she deliberately used her transfiguration to transform from her silver fox form back to her stunningly beautiful human form.
Anyway, it did not mean much whether she was in her fox form or human form since she still could onlyst for a few moments in this Void Space.
Tang Li Xue''s furry body swelled rapidly as her silky and shiny silver furs became her long hair.
After she finished her transformation in an instant, Tang Li Xue returned to her human form while curling up in a fetal position and hugging her knees.
Even though she waspletely naked right now, but her three tails and very long silky silver hair covered her jade-like body like clothes.
Despite that, the curious handsome man still widened his eyes in shock as he was mesmerized by Tang Li Xue''s transcendence beauty andpletely forgot about himself.
A peerless stunning beauty!
A celestial beauty that would shock one''s heart and move one''s soul!
The one which could overwhelm all countries and nations in one nce!
The curious handsome man only awakened from his fascination stupor when Tang Li Xue''s body disintegrated for the fourth time.
The handsome man blushed in shame after he realized what just had happened.
"To think even a person like me can still get charmed by this vixen. What a terrifying one~!" The handsome man muttered in amazement.
Well, it was not that strange since Tang Li Xue''s current charm and beauty have increased by many levels after she evolved into [Rare] Grade Fox!
If she was like an unripe peach with her previous fifteen or sixteen years old teenage girl looks before, then right now, she looked like a tempting ripe peach ready to be eaten with her neen or twenty years old charming looks.
22:39
The difference was quite vast like an ugly duckling that transformed into an elegant and noble white swan after adding some mature charm and noble aura on top of her previous innocent and heroic-looking temperament.
The handsome man suddenly changed his mind as he really wanted to see how this vixen would look in the future after she evolved further.
The handsome man took off his ck cloak and threw it at Tang Li Xue!
The ck cloak wrapped Tang Li Xue''s naked body and transformed into her clothes, then the handsome man waved his hand to effortlessly throw Tang Li Xue out of the Void Space!
The handsome man chuckled while muttering in an amused tone: "Little Vixen, I hope you will not disappoint me."
After that, he stopped thinking about Tang Li Xue and continued his journey while humming happily in a good mood as if nothing happened just now.
.....
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue immediately faced another danger after she was thrown out from the Void Space!
She was actually falling from tens of thousands of meters height from the sky right now!
She might have been able to do something if she was still conscious now, but unfortunately, she had already fallen unconscious as her body was ravaged so badly by the extremely destructive and violent space energy storm from the Void Space!
Honestly, Tang Li Xue''s current body was almost disintegrated for the fifth time, and she would truly die for real if she died for the fifth time since all of her [Substitute Dolls] had already been used!
Tang Li Xue was falling faster and faster from the night sky like a falling star!
But just as her body almost crashed heavily onto the ground, the ck clothes given to her by the man suddenly shone with a mysterious white light, and the unconscious Tang Li Xue fell down slowly to the ground.
.....
A few moments ago, near the ce where Tang Li Xue fell, a man in white clothes was fighting fiercely against several ck-clothed men.
CLANG~! CLANG~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
The man in white clothes managed to y almost all of the ck-clothed men leaving only one alive, but he was also injured pretty badly right now.
"Tell me who told you to kill me and I will let you live." The man in white clothes muttered in a cold tone as he pointed his sword at the ck-clothed man''s neck.
But the ck-clothed man snorted, then replied: "You should just give up, Third Prince. Do you really think we are the only ones sent to kill you?!"
The man in white clothes called the Third Prince frowned deeply after he heard that.
The Third Prince did not want to waste any more time talking with this assassin since he knew that his reinforcement woulde soon, so he swung the sword in his grasp swiftly to behead the ck-clothed assassin!
PUFF~!
"Cough, cough, cough... I have to hide quickly before they areing." The third Prince coughed a few mouthfuls of blood while muttering in an urgent tone.
The Third Prince dashed deeper into the forest while holding his bleeding stomach.
But right at this moment, the Third Prince suddenly saw a mysterious white light somewhere nearby inside the forest!
"What is that? The birth of treasure? Cough, cough, cough... I hope it can help me cure my injuries." The Third Prince murmured while coughing several mouthfuls of fresh blood.
The Third Prince decided to quickly head toward the location where the mysterious white light fell.
When the Third Prince reached that location, he was really disappointed because he could not find any treasure there, but it did not take long for him to find a long silver-haired girl lying down unconsciously under the tree.
At first, he was very wary of the mysterious long silver-haired girl, but the Third Prince immediately got fascinated and stunned silly for a long time after seeing the silver-haired girl''s fairy-like stunningly beautiful appearance.
The Third Prince unconsciously approached the stunning silver-haired girl as if he got bewitched by her.
But when he stretched his right hand to touch the silver-haired girl''s face to make sure that she was not a mere illusion, the silver-haired girl''s long eyshes suddenly fluttered.
The Third Prince hastily withdrew his hand in guilt as if he had almost done an unforgivable sin to defile the purity of the fairy-like girl.
When the long silver-haired girl opened her dazzling topaz blue eyes, everything in this world seemed to bepletely eclipsed.
The Third Prince opened his mouth as he tried to greet the stunning silver-haired girl, but no voice came out as if he had forgotten how to speak.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was very surprised when she saw an unknown man appear so close to her as soon as she opened her eyes.
She reflexively wanted to get away further from the unknown man, but terrible pain suddenly assaulted her entire body as she tried to move!
"Hiss, so painful~!" Tang Li Xue murmured weakly while hissing in pain.
Not only that, she also felt extremely weak as if she had returned to her sickly body in her previous life!
The Third Prince saw that Tang Li Xue was in pain, so he hastily asked in a worried tone: "Are you all right... uh, Young Miss?"
Then the Third Prince finally realized that Tang Li Xue actually was not human when he noticed her silver furry fox ears and tails. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Normally, the Third Prince would immediately raise his guard to maximum and quickly keep his distance after he knew Tang Li Xue''s true identity, but strangely, he somehow did not mind it at all right now.
It took a lot of effort just for Tang Li Xue to raise her weak body and sit while leaning her back on the tree behind her.
Cold sweat drenched her face, and she panted heavily as she almost spent all of her strength just to do such a simple move while resisting the unbearable tearing pain throughout her entire body.
Even her pale face became even paler because of it which added a sickly beauty trait to her charm which would trigger anyone''s instinct to protect when they saw her.
After taking a few breaths to recover, Tang Li Xue asked the Third Prince: "Where is this?"
The Third Prince felt extremely delighted when Tang Li Xue asked him something.
He hastily replied to her: "This is Nightmare Forest. Young Miss, this ce is very dangerous. How did you get here?"
"Nightmare Forest? Never heard of it..." Tang Li Xue murmured softly while frowning deeply.
She knew that the current condition of her body was really bad, but the first thing she tried to think about was how to call for help from the Fox n.
"I am sorry to bother you, Young Miss. But I have to tell you that many dangerous assassins are currently searching around here to find me. Not to mention, there are many powerful wild beasts in this Nightmare Forest, so you would definitely meet great dangers if you keep staying here alone." The Third Prince exined to Tang Li Xue in a solemn tone.
"Thank you very much for your warning and advice, Young Master. However, I am too heavily injured right now, and I can no longer move around freely in my current condition." Tang Li Xue replied in a helpless tone while shaking her head in resignation.
Captivating two guys in one chapter is clearly a new achievement for our Tang Li Xue. (>w<) We will see what will happen to her in the next chapter, so don''t miss it!
Chapter 897: Chased Down!
Chapter 897: Chased Down!
The Third Prince hesitated for a moment before he showed his firm expression as if he made up his mind about something.
"Young Miss, I am sorry for my impoliteness!" The Third Prince said to Tang Li Xue as he suddenly grabbed Tang Li Xue''s shoulder and pulled her.
Tang Li Xue''s heart instantly got tense and uneasy since she definitely would not be able to resist if the Third Prince tried to do anything untoward to her in her current condition.
"Wait a second, what are you..." Before Tang Li Xue could ask or protest, the Third Prince already put the feeble Tang Li Xue on his broad back and dashed further swiftly from that ce.
Yes, the Third Prince actually carried Tang Li Xue on his back right now!
The soft sensation and enchanting feminine fragrance from his back made the Third Prince blush heavily, and he almost identally bumped his head into therge tree.
Fortunately, he was awoken by Tang Li Xue''s painful hissing as she felt unbearable tearing pains all over her body just because of the Third Prince''s movement.
"I am sorry for the inconvenience, Young Miss, but we have no other choice right now. Those annoying assassins wille here really soon."
"I do not mean to brag, but I am quite an important person here, so I am afraid they will also not let you go because they will probably not dare to leave any living witnesses." The Third Prince hastily exined to Tang Li Xue in order to avoid any misunderstanding.
Tang Li Xue did not immediately believe the Third Prince''s words, but she was currently focused on another thing now.
[Greater Lucky Sticker Buff duration: 00:00:56]
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she discovered that the duration of her [Greater Lucky Sticker Buff] was not over yet.
Since she still had [Greater Lucky Sticker Buff] when she bumped into this unknown handsome young guy, it meant this guy should not be a bad person.
Just when Tang Li Xue''s eyelids felt really heavy, and she almost fell asleep in exhaustion, she suddenly felt a great dangering from behind her!
"Jump 2 meters to the left." Tang Li Xue whispered weakly to the Third Prince.
The Third Prince quickly followed Tang Li Xue''s instruction in reflex and executed his exquisite light body skill to jump to the left!
BOOOOOMM~!
Who knew that a swift flying dagger tied with an advanced talisman was thrown right at the location where the Third Prince ran before and exploded?!
To make it worse, the dagger released poisonous gas after the advanced talisman exploded, so even if the Third Prince managed to dodge the flying dagger, he would still get poisoned by the poisonous gas if not for Tang Li Xue''s early warning!
"Those insolent bast*rds~! Cough, cough, cough..." The Third Prince cursed angrily, but he immediately coughed a few mouthfuls of blood.
It seemed his serious injuries became even worse after he ran around with Tang Li Xue on his back!
Tang Li Xue also immediately realized that the Third Prince was actually injured very seriously when she saw the Third Prince cough out so much blood.
She tried to take out [Talisman of Regeneration] and [Talisman of Lesser Recovery] from her space pouch to help the Third Prince recover rapidly from his severe wounds, but the pain over her entire body became even more intense and unbearable when she squirmed her body only a little bit.
''Hisss, so painful! Damn it-! It seems my body is in a much worse condition than I thought...'' Tang Li Xue grimaced as her consciousness became blurry just because of it.
Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth as she bit the tip of her tongue to maintain consciousness.
This was clearly not the time for her to pass out or go to sleep since she might never wake up anymore if those assassins managed to catch this guy along with her!
Without any choice, Tang Li Xue could only decide to spend some of her Deity Coins to buy [Recovery Pill] from her System instead.
11,896 Deity Coins ---> 10,896 Deity Coins
[Thank you for spending 1000 Deity Coins to purchase Recovery Pill from System''s mall.]
But before she gave the [Recovery Pill] to the Third Prince, Tang Li Xue suddenly thought as her topaz blue eyes were shining in realization: ''Wait a minute, why the heck should I give this [Recovery Pill] to this guy?! I can just eat this pill myself topletely recover, right?!"
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s hope was immediately shattered by her System''s notification.
[Sorry Host, but It should be impossible for Host topletely recover by eating that Recovery Pill.]
''What?! Why?!'' Tang Li Xue asked unconvincingly to her System while frowning deeply.
[Because there is still destructive space energy inside the Host''s body.]
[No matter how good the medicines the Host eats, it would be useless as long as the destructive space energy still remains inside the Host''s body.]
[In short, Host''s current situation is not that much different than the previous boy who got hit by the Void Piercing Arrow.]
[Compared to the Profound Law of Destruction contained in the [Void Piercing Arrow], the destructive space energy from the Void Space is actually much more fierce and dangerous. It is also extremely troublesome to resolve.]
[The words ''Space is the king, but Time is supreme'' are not nonsense after all.]
Tang Li Xue''s mood instantly fell to the bottom after she heard her System''s exnation.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to ask further about the solution, but this was clearly not the right time to discuss that.
Since the [Recovery Pill] waspletely useless for her right now, she could only give it to the Third Prince instead in order to get out safely from this dangerous situation.
"Open your mouth." Tang Li Xue whispered weakly to the Third Prince''s right ear which made the Third Prince feel really itchy and blush hard like a prawn.
Despite that, the Third Prince did not slow down his sprinting speed at all as he asked Tang Li Xue shyly: "Young Miss, what are you..."
Before the Third Prince could finish his words, Tang Li Xue already stuffed the [Recovery Pill] in her grasp onto the Third Prince''s mouth.
Out of his trust in Tang Li Xue, the Third Prince did not immediately reject or spit out the pill given by Tang Li Xue.
After hesitating for a while, the Third Prince finally decided to swallow the pill.
Of course, it was not because the Third Prince blindly trusted Tang Li Xue because of her beauty, but it was because he thought that they were already in the same ''boat'' right now, so it should be impossible for Tang Li Xue to harm him unless she wanted to die together with him.
The Third Prince almost moanedfortably when the [Recovery Pill] dissolved in his body.
He was extremely surprised as the severe wounds all over his body were recovering rapidly under the [Recovery Pill]''s efficacy.
Even the best pill he had ever seen should not work as fast as the [Recovery Pill] given by Tang Li Xue!
"Young Miss, what is..." Just as the Third Prince wanted to ask about it, but Tang Li Xue hastily interrupted his words halfway.
"Watch out, on your left." Tang Li Xue warned the Third Prince with a soft voice.
The Third Prince instantly halted his step!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Dozens of flying daggers passed swiftly right in front of him, but they only managed to hit the nearby huge tree''s trunk instead.
"You can run quickly to the right."
"Be careful, there are attacksing from above."
Tang Li Xue kept giving instructions to the Third Prince which made him always manage to barely dodge the cunning sneak attacks from the assassins.
Although Tang Li Xue could not use any of her divine abilities or martial arts, and even her body had be so weak right now, but her passive divine ability such as [Extrasensory Perception] was still working as well as usual.
The Third Prince was really amazed by Tang Li Xue''s ability to predict any danger ahead of time.
"How can that son of bit*ch avoid all of our attacks so perfectly?!" Even the assassins felt very annoyed and angry at it.
"Then let''s use that ''thing''~!" The other assassin replied in a cold tone.
Those assassins threw another wave of secret weapons toward the Third Prince and Tang Li Xue, but this time, they added something ''special'' on top of it.
Unfortunately, their little trick still could not get away from Tang Li Xue''s [Extrasensory Perception].
"Bend your knees and bow your body." Tang Li Xue instructed again. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The Third Prince felt strange at Tang Li Xue''s sudden weird instruction, but he still subconsciously followed it.
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Dozens of flying daggers were thrown at the Third Prince for the umpteen times, but who knew that there were invisible wires connected them with each other this time?!
Even the Third Prince could avoid the flying daggers, the invisible wires should ensnare and tie down him.
However, the invisible wires actually passed right above the Third Prince''s head as he suddenly bowed down!
"F*ck~! Are you kidding me?! He can even dodge that?!" The assassin eximed in shock and disbelief.
The Third Prince sighed in relief when he saw the flying daggers with the invisible wires tied up on the tree instead.
The assassins had not given up as they kept unleashing sneak attacks from afar to wear down the Third Prince slowly.
Those assassins did not dare to fight in a melee battle against the Third Prince anymore after so many of theirrades were killed by the Third Prince before.
All of their ranged sneak attacks were very tricky and hard to detect.
If not for Tang Li Xue who helped the Third Prince with her [Extrasensory Perception], the Third Prince might have already fallen under their attacks long ago.
But it clearly could notst long because the extremely exhausted, weak, and sickly Tang Li Xue had almost reached her limit.
Chapter 898: Iron-Blooded Armys Camp!
Chapter 898: Iron-Blooded Army''s Camp!
It made sense for Tang Li Xue to have reached her limit after she went through the excruciating evolution process to [Rare] Grade Beast, fighting and running away from the strange creature, then falling into Void Space and dying four times because of it.
Not to mention that she was also tortured by unbearable pain and felt extremely feeble and powerless because of her current badly damaged body.
Just when Tang Li Xue''s consciousness felt blurry, and she almost passed out...
PUUUUFF~!
One of the assassin''s flying daggers managed to lodge deeply into the Third Prince''s left thigh!
"Urgh..." The Third Prince grimaced in pain, but he still did not slow down his running speed at all.
Tang Li Xue realized that the Third Prince got injured because she could not warn him on time just now.
"I am sorry... But it seems I really can not stand it anymore... You can just leave me behind if you..." Tang Li Xue''s alluring feminine voice became fainter and weaker, then she faintedpletely before she could even finish her words.
"Young Miss, is there something wrong?! HEY~!" The Third Prince yelled to ask Tang Li Xue in a tone filled with worry, but Tang Li Xue could no longer answer his question since she had already passed out.
Despite that, the Third Prince surely could not stop to check Tang Li Xue''s condition or if she got wounded by those assassins'' attacks, so the Third Prince gritted his teeth and continued to run away from those assassins who kept persistently chasing after him.
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Without Tang Li Xue''s help, the Third Prince clearly could no longer perfectly avoid those assassins'' tricky sneak attacks as perfectly as before.
When those assassins threw so many flying daggers toward the Third Prince from time to time, their flying daggers managed to stab deeply into his arms, tights, legs, and even his stomach, and shoulders.
The Third Prince''s running speed slowed down rapidly as he suddenly felt dizzy and nauseous.
"Oh, crap... These flying daggers are actually poisonous!" The Third Prince angrily cursed.
"This is it~! Your Highness Third Prince, please die now!" Several assassins took this chance to get close to the Third Prince while brandishing the killer des in their grasp toward the Third Prince''s vital points such as his neck!
PUUUUUUFFF~!
The fresh blood was gushing out like a fountain, but it was not the Third Prince''s blood nor Tang Li Xue''s blood!
Dozens of arrows suddenly shed in the Third Prince''s direction from above, but they perfectly hit those approaching assassins'' foreheads instead.
More than a hundred people in ck metal armornded from the sky, and they lined up neatly around the Third Prince and the assassins.
"Those people are... Iron-Blooded Army~!" One of the ck-clothed assassins shouted with fear and panic in his tone.
"Greetings to Your Highness Third Prince! What should we do to these rats, Your Highness? Should we catch them all, so we can interrogate who is behind themter?" The captain of the Iron-Blooded Army saluted the Third Prince and asked in a cold and solemn tone.
"No, I have enough of these basta*rd. Just kill them all as soon as possible." The Third Prince replied in a cold tone filled with killing intent.
"Understood, Your Highness~!" The Iron-Blooded Army yelled in unison as they unsheathed their weapons and charged toward the assassins in unison.
At first, there were around fifty ck-clothed assassins who attacked the Third Prince, but the Third Prince already killed more than ten of them before he met with Tang Li Xue leaving only around thirty of them or so.
In short, the thirty assassins definitely would not be able to defeat more than a hundred Iron-Blooded Army who were equipped far better than them, and the Iron-Blooded Army even used advanced battle formation to deal with them.
Rather than fight, it should be called a one-sided massacre instead since their battle was over in less than one minute as those thirty assassins got torn apart so quickly by the Iron-Blooded Army.
The captain of the Iron-Blooded Army did not even need to join the battle. He busily treated the Third Prince''s wounds and poison instead, while the Third Prince carefully checked Tang Li Xue''s condition in great worry.
After checking a few more times and making sure that Tang Li Xue was not injured by those assassins'' poisonous flying dagger attacks, the Third Prince finally sighed in relief.
Then the Third Prince gently caressed Tang Li Xue''s fair and smooth cheek with his fingers while kept staring at her with a gaze filled with admiration and obsession.
The captain of the Iron-Blooded Army was also intoxicated by Tang Li Xue''s peerless beauty for a while when he saw her, but he quickly lowered his head and no longer dared to take a nce at her.
The captain of the Iron-Blooded Army hastily urged the Third Prince after he treated the Third Prince''s poison and wounds: "Your Highness, this subordinate thinks we should go back to the military camp as soon as possible before something untoward happens again."
The Third Prince frowned displeasantly, but he knew that the captain of the Iron-Blooded Army''s words were right.
Despite his injuries, the Third Prince still carried Tang Li Xue by herself, but this time, he did not carry Tang Li Xue on his back like before, but in princess carry.
The captain of the Iron-Blooded Army took out the luxurious pnquin from his spatial ring, then the Third Prince carried Tang Li Xue to get on the pnquin.
Inside the pnquin, the Third Prince put the unconscious Tang Li Xue gently on the soft seat with her head resting on hisp.
The luxurious pnquin was lifted by the people from the Iron-Blooded Army, then they flew swiftly toward the military camp.
The military camp was quite far away from the Nightmare Forest, and it took at least an hour to reach there, but the journey was really safe with the Iron-Blooded Army''s escort.
After they went back to the military camp, the Third Prince immediately called several female servants to bathe the fainted Tang Li Xue and change her clothes since she was stained by the Third Prince''s blood when he carried her on his back.
Then the Third Prince let military physicians check Tang Li Xue''s condition.
When the Third Prince heard the military physicians'' report about Tang Li Xue''s condition, he instantly frowned deeply in displeasure and worry.
"There is strange destructive energy wreaking havoc in her body, so you can do nothing to cure her illness?" The Third Prince again in a colder tone.
"We are ipetent, Your Highness, but we have already tried our best. Please forgive us!" The military physicians hastily knelled down and kowtow to ask for the Third Prince''s forgiveness. while trembling in fright.
The Third Prince waved his hands to drive all the military physicians out of Tang Li Xue''s tent in annoyance.
The Third Prince sat right beside Tang Li Xue''s bed while carefully pondering what he had to do next in order to cure Tang Li Xue''s illness.
"It seems I can only bring her back to the Imperial Pce, and let Imperial physicians find a way to cure her." The Third Prince muttered his decision.
Compared to military physicians who could only treat injured soldiers, Imperial physicians were definitely far more skilled and capable since they had to treat the members of the Imperial family such as princes, princesses, consorts, queen, and even the emperor.
However, the Third Prince did not rashly bring Tang Li Xue to the Imperial City. He patiently waited for Tang Li Xue to wake up in order to ask for her opinion first.
Who knew that it would actually take several days for Tang Li Xue to regain consciousness?!
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes and found herself in such an unfamiliar environment, her body instantly tensed, and she reflexively tried to get out of bed.
"Hiisss~! Ouch, ouch, ouch... It is so damn painful~!" Tang Li Xue grasped in pain as cold sweat began to drench her forehead, and she slumped back limply onto the bed.
"Please be careful, Young Miss!" The female servants who guarded inside the tent instantly panicked because of Tang Li Xue''s sudden move.
They knew that this unbelievably beautiful fox girl was the Third Prince''s favorite woman because the Third Prince always came to check and faithfully apanied right beside her in these few days even though she was still unconscious.
If something bad happens to her, they will definitely beheaded on the spot today!
One of the female servants also hastily ran out of the tent to inform the Third Prince.
When the female servants helped Tang Li Xue to sit on the bed, Tang Li Xue asked them in a faint and weak voice: "Where is this?"
"Report to Young Miss. This is the Iron-Blooded Army''s camp." One of the female servants politely replied to Tang Li Xue with a trembling tone.
"Iron... What?! Army''s camp?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in confusion.
It took a while for her to realize what had happened.
''Ah, I get it... It looks like that guy somehow managed to get away safely from the assassins'' pursuit, and then he should bring me here after that.'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her mind. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The female servant nodded at Tang Li Xue and exined again: "Iron-Blooded Army''s camp is located on the south border of the Great Wei Dynasty in Azure Mist Continent."
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes as she stared at the female servant with a pair of eyes filled with shock, disbelief, and astonishment.
"Eh, what? Eeehhh, EEEEEHHHHHH~?! Azure Mist Continent?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
Chapter 899: Two Solutions!
899 Chapter 899: Two Solutions!
Tang Li Xue instantly felt really dizzy, and she almost passed out again after she heard such a shocking truth.
The several female servants hastily held Tang Li Xue in panic before she could slip down and fall from the bed.
Right at this moment, the Third Prince suddenly entered the tent and saw the scene of Tang Li Xue almost fainting again while several female servants were holding her.
The Third Prince''s expression turned cold as he red at the several female servants and asked: "How dare you all do something rude to her! Do you all want to die so badly?!"
The several female servants quickly kneeled and kowtowed to the Third Prince.
"Please forgive us, Your Highness! But we... We really did not dare do anything to upset Young Miss!" The several female servants apologized while trembling in fear.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized that the situation deteriorated rapidly, and if she did not say something to help those female servants, they would certainly get punished by the Third Prince.
"It is not their fault. It is because I still feel unwell, so I almost fall down from the bed. Thankfully those servants react fast enough by holding me before I fall." Tang Li Xue exined to the Third Prince.
"Oh, I see. So, it is just my misunderstanding." The Third Prince smiled kindly while blushing deeply after he nced at Tang Li Xue.
The Third Prince looked really kind and easygoing right now as if his previous anger and suffocating killing intent were just an illusion.
Then the Third Prince took a bowl brought by another female servant from outside before he sat right beside Tang Li Xue''s bed.
"This is the nourishing soup made from more than a hundred herbs and flowers. Even though it cannot cure your illness, but at least it can help alleviate your pain a bit and give you some strength. Please try it!" The Third Prince exined while scooping the nourishing soup with the spoon in his hand and bringing it closer to Tang Li Xue''s mouth.
"Err, thank you very much for your concern, Brother, but I still have my hands so I can still eat by myself." Tang Li Xue muttered in shame as she took the bowl and spoon from the Third Prince and ate it by herself.
The Third Prince did not bother to say anything. He only sat there quietly while kept staring at Tang Li Xue with a silly smile and intoxicated expression on his face.
After Tang Li Xue finished eating the nourishing soup, the Third Prince let the female servants bring the bowl and spoon out while he told Tang Li Xue about her illness: "Young Miss... To be honest, your illness is quiteplicated, and the physicians in this military camp cannot cure you with their mediocre medical skills."
"But you do not need to worry too much about it. I have a n to return to the Imperial Pce tomorrow morning. If Young Miss does not mind it, I can bring you back to the Imperial City with me. I am sure the Imperial physicians from the Imperial Pce should be able to cure your illness." The Third Prince suggested to Tang Li Xue.
"That is..." Tang Li Xue hesitated for a while before she continued: "Can you please give me some time to think about it? I will definitely give you the answer tomorrow morning."
The Third Prince nodded in understanding and said: "No problem. By the way, I am the Third Prince of the Great Wei Dynasty, Wei Yunfei. May I know your name too, Young Miss?"
"Th... Third Prince~?! Err, my name is Tang Li Xue. I... Well, I am just an ordinary fox." Tang Li Xue was surprised when she heard the Third Prince''s identity, and she also felt really ashamed when she introduced herself.
She felt like a meremoner who introduced herself to the noble prince.
Tang Li Xue thought the Third Prince would look down on her because of it, but surprisingly, the Third Prince was still kind and gentle to her as usual which made Tang Li Xue feel relieved.
It would be really bad if the Third Prince suddenly changed his mind and decided to kick her out of this camp when she was still in this condition.
The Third Prince and Tang Li Xue chatted for half an hour or so.
Well... Actually, the Third Prince was the one who mostly talked to Tang Li Xue excitedly while Tang Li Xue mostly heard it carefully to get more information about this unknown ce.
If not for Tang Li Xue to show an exhausted expression and dozing off several times, the Third Prince might want to apany Tang Li Xue to chat until the next day.
This was not Tang Li Xue''s deliberate act in order to drive away the Third Prince. She was truly exhausted and felt sleepy because her current sickly condition made her easily get tired.
The Third Prince clearly looked like he still wanted to stay and chat with Tang Li Xue, but he still resisted the urge and excused himself to let Tang Li Xue rest.
After the Third Prince left Tang Li Xue''s tent leaving only a few female servants to attend to her, Tang Li Xuey down on her bed and closed her topaz blue eyes, but she did not immediately fall asleep.
''System, to be honest with you, I really do not like this current situation. I am stranded alone in an unknown ce. I am also in my human form with irresistible charm and beauty, but I do not even have any strength to protect myself right now! Is there something I can do to recover and regain my strength faster?!'' Tang Li Xue asked her System in a desperate tone.
[It is easy for Host to say that, but there is actually no quick and easy solution for Host''s condition.]
[Host currently only has two solutions.]
[First, Host can find someone to drain the destructive space energy out of Host''s body just like what Host had done previously to the boy who got hit by Void Piercing Arrow.]
[But the risk of doing this thing is very high because if the destructive space energy is not handled properly, it will enter that helper''s body instead, and that helper will end up dying or badly crippled. So, no one would probably dare to do this unless they really care about Host, and they are ready to sacrifice their life for Host.]
''I am alone in this continent, where the heck can I find someone to do that for me?! Pass~!'' Tang Li Xue angrily rejected the first solution from her System.
Actually, the first solution might not bepletely impossible if she asked for help from herpanion pets such as Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia.
But just like what her System had said, the risk of doing that was very high, so Tang Li Xue was not willing for Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia to sacrifice themselves just to help her recover.
''Then what if I ask Little Loki to devour the space energy inside my body instead? It should be possible, right?'' Tang Li Xue asked her System curiously.
[Host, do you want to get swallowed by the Taotie''s cub so badly? If Host really thinks that inexperienced little Taotie''s cub can devour the space energy inside Host''s body without swallowing Host as a whole, then please do so.]
Tang Li Xue swallowed her saliva in fear as she thought: ''Oh, well... Let''s just forget about that since I still wanted to stay alive at least until I became the real Fox Deity. Oh, right... What about the second solution, System?''
[The second solution is for Host to refine the destructive space energy in the Host''s own body by using the Space elemental cultivation technique.]
[This should be the safest and most reasonable solution, but it is a long grinding process that requires patience, diligence, and persistence because it would definitely take quite a long time.]
Tan Li Xue suddenly opened her bright topaz blue eyes in excitement, but they immediately dimmed again after she heard System''stter words.
''It would take a long time, huh? How long do you think it would be?'' Tang Li Xue asked again.
[It is hard to estimate how long it would be since the time needed depends on many factors such as the grade of the Space elemental cultivation technique, Host''s persistence to practice every day, the foods or body supplements consumed by Host, and so on.]
[At first, Host would not be able to refine much destructive space energy because of Host''s current sickly body.]
[But at theter stage, the refining speed should speed up faster and faster as the Host''s body grows stronger and healthier.]
Tang Li Xue stopped asking or talking to her System as she began to think about her next n.
Since the first solution was not possible, Tang Li Xue could only choose the second solution right now. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
''ording to System, there are many factors that will affect my speed of refining the destructive space energy in my body.''
''The grade of the Space elemental cultivation technique should not be a big problem because I still have a [Premium Cultivation Voucher] in my System''s storage.''
''I can just use [Premium Cultivation Voucher] to choose any Space elemental cultivation technique I need.''
''The problem is the foods or body supplements needed to nourish my sickly body, so I can speed up the refining process.''
''Ais, I have no money to buy anything, no power to protect myself, andno food to feed myself.''
''Not to mention I am also not familiar with this Azure Mist Continent yet.''
Tang Li Xue could only shake her head helplessly as she whispered in her heart: ''Sigh, it seems I have no choice other than following that prince around for now.''
Poor Tang Li Xue~! (>w<) But at least, we will get a new journey in a new ce, so don''t miss the next chapter~!
godadi
Chapter 900: Political Struggle!
900 Chapter 900: Political Struggle!
Tang Li Xue fell asleep without realizing it until the next morning.
When the female servants woke her up the next morning, Tang Li Xue realized that Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia in her System''s pet space were already revolting in hunger.
Tang Li Xue pped her forehead as she thought: ''Oh, right... How the heck can I forget to feed you three kids?!''
Then she also recalled that she had previously put her space pouch into her System''s storage, so her space pouch would not be destroyed in the Void Space.
Just as the female servants bathed Tang Li Xue, Tang Li Xue tried tomunicate with her System through her mind: ''System, can you help me feed Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia with the snacks I stored in my space pouch?''
Tang Li Xue also told her System that Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia usually ate different kinds of foods, so it could feed them ording to their preference.
Little Loki could eat everything, but normally, it ate high-energy snacks such as spirit stones or beast cores.
Yaya usually ate spirit foods like spirit fruits, while Lucia usually ate Spirit Dew Cucumber.
Who knew that her System actually gave her a surprising answer instead?!
[This System already gave them the foods stored in the Host''s space pouch every day when Host passed out for a few days straight before.]
[Their foods are alreadypletely run out today unless Host wants to feed them with precious treasures such as [100,000 years Stgmite Essense] which is still stored in the Host''s space pouch.]
"What?! No~! Don''t you dare to... Ouch, ouch, ouch..." Tang Li Xue suddenly jumped excitedly from the bathtub, but she immediately slumped down again as her entire body was assaulted by unbearable pain because of her sudden intense movement.
Several female servants anxiously held Tang Li Xue before she could identally slip and fall down.
Well... In short, they havepletely run out of ration for Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia right now.
Tang Li Xue felt really grateful for her System''s attentiveness this time, but thinking about how to feed those three gluttonous little children made Tang Li Xue''s head hurt.
After helping Tang Li Xue take a bath, the female servants dressed Tang Li Xue up before escorting her to meet the Third Prince.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes were shining in excitement when she saw the table full of delicious food.
It seemed the Third Prince was actually waiting for Tang Li Xue to eat breakfast together.
The Third Prince also knew that Tang Li Xue was probably very hungry since she had only eaten a bowl of nourishing soup yesterday. That was the reason why he deliberately prepared so much food this morning.
But the gentle smile on the Third Prince''s face immediately turned into a strange expression when Tang Li Xue greedily gobbled so much food by herself without leaving anything for him.
The Third Prince thought that he did not know what Tang Li Xue''s favorite food yet, so he prepared many different kinds of delicious foods for Tang Li Xue to taste in order to find out Tang Li Xue''s taste.
Who knew that Tang Li Xue actually cleaned all the food by herself instead?!
Of course, Tang Li Xue did not really eat all of those delicious foods by herself, but she secretly sent most of them into her System''s pet space to feed Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia.
Tang Li Xue could actually introduce Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia to the Third Prince right now, then ask him to feed them, but somehow the Third Prince''s possessive stare gave her an eerie feeling, so she did not fully trust him yet.
In short, Tang Li Xue decided to keep the existence of Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia a secret for now, so she would at least have a backup n to escape with their helpter if something untoward happened.
"Uhh, Miss Tang, is your stomach all right? Those foods contain a lot of spiritual energy." The Third Prince asked Tang Li Xue in a strange tone.
Tang Li Xue gracefully wiped her lips with the handkerchief prepared by the female servants while replying politely to the Third Prince: "I am all right. Thank you very much, Third Prince, for your treat."
The Third Prince waved his hand signaling for the servants to clean up the table and rece the empty tes with a tea pot and tea cups.
"So, what is your decision, Miss Tang? Would you follow me to the Capital City of the Great Wei Dynasty?" The Third Prince asked as he poured the tea from the teapot to Tang Li Xue''s teacup and his own tea cup.
Tang Li Xue smiled at the Third Prince while nodding her head and saying: "My master told me to seek experience in the human world, so I can increase my knowledge. Traveling thousands of miles is better than reading thousands of books after all."
"Thank you for your invitation, your Highness Third Prince. I will be in your care for now at least until we reach Capital City." Tang Li Xue said to the Third Prince.
It was a lie woven by Tang Li Xue to fool the Third Prince in order to give a hint to him that at least she still had a mysterious master behind her so you better not look down on her and do something untoward to her. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
It might be a bit cliche, but it was also the mostmon excuse used by every protagonist.
The Third Prince sighed in relief and grinned happily after he heard Tang Li Xue''s confirmation.
He was really afraid that Tang Li Xue would insist on parting with him soon, and he could no longer find or see her anymoreter as if she was only his fleeting dream.
The Third Prince hastily ordered the servants to prepare for the carriage before Tang Li Xue changed her mind.
Since they had already prepared everything since yesterday, it only took a few minutes for the carriage to arrive at the Third Prince''s tent.
The Third Prince immediately escorted Tang Li Xue to ride on the luxurious carriage outside his tent together.
When the luxurious carriage went out from the military camp and headed to the Capital City, Tang Li Xue also saw more than a hundred Iron-Blooded Army d in ck armor and riding unicorn-like horses guarding around their carriage in neat formation.
Tang Li Xue did not think much about it.
It was not strange since the Third Prince almost got assassinated a few days ago, so they should be really afraid that something simr would happen again on the Third Prince''s way back to the Capital City.
.....
Right at this time, the news about the assassins'' failure finally reached the ears of the mastermind behind the assassination attempt.
PRAAANGG~!
The handsome young man in the purple robe threw the teapot until it hit the head of the ck-clothed man who kneeled right in front of him.
"Fool! Idiot! How could it fail?! He should be alone in that ce, right?!" The handsome young man in the purple robe scolded in great rage.
"It was all my fault. I should send more skilled people to assassinate the Third Prince. Please punish me, Your Highness Second Prince." The ck-clothed man kowtowed to the Second Prince.
Yes, this handsome young man in the purple robe was actually the Second Prince of the Great Wei Dynasty, Wei Guolin.
"Forget it. What is the point of punishing you now?! I still have a lot of things for you to do. If you fall sick, who will do those things for me, huh?!" TheSecond Prince said in an irritated tone.
Tang Li Xue did not know it yet, but the political situation in the Great Wei Dynasty was actually veryplicated and tense right now.
The Great Wei Dynasty was one of the giant cultivator dynasties in the Azure Mist Continent.
The Great Wei Dynasty''s current emperor was also a cultivator with high cultivation, and he already lived for almost a thousand years.
After living almost a thousand years, it was not strange that the Great Wei Dynasty''s emperor had so many princes and princesses, but among them all, only the First Prince and Second Prince had the highest cultivation, and they also had so many supporters in the court.
Then why the Second Prince was targeting the Third Prince rather than the First Prince?!
The answer was because the First Prince and the Third Prince had the same mother. Their mother was the current Empress of the Great Wei Dynasty.
Meanwhile, the Second Prince was the son of the sixth concubine, Liu Guifei.
The First Prince gathered the supporters from the court side, while the Third Prince gathered the supporters from the military side.
This two-sided action clearly annoyed the Second Prince greatly!
The First Prince was always living in the Imperial Pce protected by many experts, so it was not easy for the Second Prince to make a move to target him.
Not to mention that the First Prince''s strength and cultivation were very powerful. It was not easy to find someone who could assassinate the First Prince, but targeting the Third Prince waspletely a different story.
The Third Prince spent most of his time running around in many military camps at the borders and training soldiers, so his cultivation and strength were not that high.
"I heard the Third Prince is currently on his way back to the Capital City. Should we try to assassinate him again?" The ck-clothed man asked while making a cutting-throat gesture.
But the Second Prince shook his head and replied in a cold tone: "It would only be a futile effort. Do you really think my brother is a fool? After the first assassination attempt failed, he would definitely be wary of it. He should bring many soldiers to escort him back to Capital City this time."
Uh oh, it seems Tang Li Xue''s life would not be that easy even if she managed to reach the Capital City safely with the Third Prince. We will see what will happen in the next chapter, so don''t miss it~! (>w<)

Chapter 901: Chapter 901: Yuan Coins!
Chapter 901: Chapter 901: Yuan Coins!
?
The ck-clothed man felt embarrassed and guilty after he heard the Second Prince''s exnation.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Then the ck-clothed man hastily said something to calm down the Second Prince''s anger and annoyance: "His Highness Second Prince, I got news from our spy in Iron-Blooded Army''s camp that the Third Prince would bring back an extremely charming and beautiful foxdy with him to the Capital City."
"Oh, really? An extremely charming and beautiful foxdy? I wonder if that foxdy is more beautiful or thedy Lu Yixin from Lu''s aristocratic family." The Second Prince said in a curious tone.
Lu Yixin was the most famousdy in the Capital City and known as the most beautiful pearl of the Great Wei Dynasty.
it should be noted that Lu Yixin was actually the Third Prince''s fiancee, and she should be the Third Prince''s main wife after they married!
Unfortunately, the Third Prince did not seem to looking forward to their marriage and always found any random excuse to dy it again and again.
But this time, the Third Prince suddenly brought an extremely charming and beautiful foxdy back with him to the Capital City!
It was truly hard for the Second Prince to not be interested in such a sudden development.
"This is truly interesting-! Hehehehe, this may be our perfect chance to sow discord among them." the Second Prince muttered while chuckling coldly.
There were four most influential aristocratic families living in the Capital City.
Liu Family, Zhou Family, Chen Family, Lu Family.
Zhou Family was the Empress Zhou Yansui''s family, so they definitely supported her son, First Prince and Third Prince.
Liu Family was Concubine Liu Guifei''s family, so they supported her son, Second Prince.
The Second Prince''s current main wife was from Chen Family, so of course, Chen Family fully supported the Second Prince to be the next emperor, so their daughter could also be the next empress.
Meanwhile, the First Prince''s current main wife was from Lu Family, so Lu Family supported the First Prince instead.
Lu Family also matched the Third Prince with Lu Yixin in order to strengthen the rtionships between their families.
The Second Prince had already begun to think of a way to use this chance to create a crack in the rtionship between Zhou Family and Lu Family.
Tang Li Xue still did not know that someone already had a n to implicate her in the political struggle for the Great Wei Dynasty''s throne.
The Third Prince kept trying to chat about many things with her, but Tang Li Xue was afraid that she would identally let a slip out about her true origin, so she did not dare to talk much about herself.
Fortunately, she obtained many important information from the Third Prince because of it.
Tang Li Xue did not even need to ask or talk much, and the Third Prince told her manymon but important information about the Azure Mist Continent.
There were actually so many different things in the Azure Mist Continentpared to the Lightwind Continent.
For example, the Azure Mist Continent was under the reign of the six great dynasties, and the immortal sects in the Azure Mist Continent were only small scattered sects without any power to match the six great dynasties.
Every year, all of those small sects must contribute at least 60% of their cultivation resources to the great dynasty where they were located as their tax.
This was clearly the opposite of the Lightwind Continent where the immortal sects were the ones holding control over all the kingdoms or dynasties under their rule instead.
Tang Li Xue really wanted to ask for any information about the Beast Race and the Fox n in this Azure Mist Continent, but she did not dare to do it so tantly since it would definitely make the Third Prince very suspicious of her.
How could she not know any information about the Beast Race and the Fox n when she was a fox, unless she was not the native beast from this Azure Mist Continent, right?!
When the sun was almost set and their carriage almost reached the Capital City, and even Tang Li Xue could already see the majestic wall protecting the Capital City from afar, the Third Prince finally decided to tell Tang Li Xue about the fierce political struggle of the Great Wei Dynasty.
The Emperor''s lifespan was almost exhausted, he could only live for one more decade at most!
Great Wei Dynasty''s four most influential aristocratic families living in the Capital City: Liu, Zhou, Chen, and Lu!
Empress, Zhou Yansui VS Emperor''s Favorite Concubine, Liu Guifei!
Zhou Family and Lu Family VS Liu Family and Chen Family!
First Prince and Third Prince VS Second Prince!
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched violently after she heard the Third Prince''s exnation.
She suddenly felt a really bad feeling about this.
''This damn cunning guy~! Why the heck did he not tell me all of these earlier?! He only told me after we almost reached the Capital City''s gate! Err, is it already toote for me to change my mind and back down right now?'' Tang Li Xue thought in annoyance and frustration.
But after pondering it carefully for a while, Tang Li Xue shook her head helplessly as she decided not toin or say anything to the Third Prince.
It should be already toote for her to back down right now, and even the Third Prince would probably not let her walk away from him just like that.
Tang Li Xue also hated to admit it, but she really needed the Third Prince''s help for now. At least until she waspletely familiar with this Azure Mist Continent, the destructive space energy inside her body waspletely refined, all of her injuries were cured, her strength returned back to peak condition, and she had enough money to support her three gluttonous littlerades... Well, Tang Li Xue suddenly realized that she actually had so many things she needed to do.
There were many people, carriages, and carts that wereing in and out of the Capital City''s
gate.
City Guards who were guarding the gate checked their documents and luggage one by one carefully, but when they saw the Third Prince''s luxurious carriage with the royal family''s symbol, they did not dare to stop or check it.
Tang Li Xue saw from the window that all the City Guards politely bowed their head instead.
After their carriage entered the city, the Third Prince gave Tang Li Xue a long cloak to cover her fox ears and tails, a veil to cover her face, and a bag of money.
Tang Li Xue shamelessly epted all of them with a silly innocent smile on her stunningly beautiful face.
Then the Third Prince exined the function of those treasures one by one: "This long white cloak is called [Aura Hiding Cloak], it may not be able to make youpletely invisible, but it can lower your presence and make you almost unnoticeable even by the cultivators at Core
Formation Stage."
"This thin veil is called [Moon Covering Veil]. It can make others unable to see your appearance as if there is a fog covering your face."
"Both of them have advanced protection runes engraved on them, so make sure to always
wear them when Miss Tang wandering around the Capital City, so I will not worry about Miss
Tang''s safety."
Tang Li Xue nodded in amazement as she realized that both [Aura Hiding Cloak] and [Moon Covering Veil] should be pretty advanced spirit treasures.
Tang Li Xue silently gave two thumbs up in her heart for the Third Prince''s generosity.
Of course, the Third Prince actually had a hidden ulterior motive for giving those two treasures to Tang Li Xue.
The Third Prince secretly already regarded Tang Li Xue as his own woman, so he surely did not want the other men to admire Tang Li Xue''s stunningly beautiful look.
Just imagining it made the Third Prince have a strong urge to confine Tang Li Xue in his room forever, so he would be the only one who could admire her peerless beauty.
The Third Prince quickly shook his head to drive away such an evil thought from his mind.
Tang Li Xue did not know what was in the Third Prince''s mind. Currently, she opened the bag
of money and found something surprising inside it.
"Eh? What are these? Coins?" Tang Li Xue muttered in confusion.
The Third Prince chuckled as he said: "Miss Tang, you do not even know what this is yet?
These are Yuan Coins."
"Yuan Coins? So, the Great Wei Dynasty do not use spirit stones as currency, but these Yuan Coins?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
"These Yuan Coins are actually made from Spirit Stones." The Third Prince replied while chuckling in amusement at Tang Li Xue''s reaction.
Then the Third Prince began to tell Tang Li Xue about the origin story of the Yuan Coins''
appearance.
The story was pretty ridiculous that Tang Li Xue really wanted tough when she heard it. Many years ago, the currency in the Azure Mist Continent was still Spirit Stones.
But some smart cultivators actually thought of a clever way to exploit the loophole in the
Spirit Stones as currency.
They absorbed around a tenth of the spiritual energy from a high-grade spirit stone, then exchanged them for 1,000 mid-grade spirit stones.
Then they absorbed around a tenth of those 1,000 mid-grade spirit stones, after that they changed those 1,000 mid-grade spirit stones for a high-grade spirit stone again.
In this way, it was the same as they obtained unlimited cultivation resources for free!
After the other knew about this, they also used this trick which made the worth of spirit stones in the market plummet rapidly at that time.
In the end, the six Great Dynasties used some kind of means to forge the spirit stones into
Yuan Coins instead.
Since Yuan Coins were made from spirit stones, they could also be used for cultivation, but
Yuan Coins must be unsealed first.
After Yuan Coins were unsealed, they would change color from metallic color to crystal color like spirit stones, and they could no longer be used to trade.
Chapter 902: Chapter 902: Third Princes Fiance!
Chapter 902: Chapter 902: Third Prince''s Fiance!
?
"Woah, what a smart guy~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in admiration after she heard the Third Prince''s story.
"But isn''t it easy to detect the already used spirit stones since the spiritual energy stored inside them will be weakened?" Tang Li Xue asked again curiously.
The Third Prince shook his head and replied: "They used a strange trick to make the used spirit stones still look perfect on the surface."
Tang Li Xue pinched her fair chin as she wondered if she could also learn this strange trick and use it to fool the cultivators in Lightwind Continent if she someday returned back to Lightwind Continent.
Right at this time, their carriage had finally reached the Imperial Pce.
"We have arrived at the Imperial Pce. I am sorry, Miss Tang, but can you please wear that [Aura Hiding Cloak] and [Moon Covering Veil] first? It would be troublesome if your dazzling appearance attracted unwanted attention from some annoying people." The Third Prince politely said to Tang Li Xue.
"Oh, okay." Tang Li Xue nodded as she wore the [Aura Hiding Cloak] and [Moon Covering Veil] to cover her fox tails, fox ears, and face.
The Third Prince jumped down the carriage first before he held Tang Li Xue''s hand and helped her to get off the carriage too.
Tang Li Xue was currently still sickly and weak after all, so she might slip and fall down from the carriage.
But just when the Third Prince wanted to escort Tang Li Xue into the Imperial Pce, a group of people had already gone out of the Imperial Pce''s gate to greet him first.
"Big Brother Yunfei~!" A feminine melodious voice affectionately called the Third Prince. Tang Li Xue saw a beautiful young girl in a pink dress run excitedly toward the Third Prince. This young girl in the pink dress should have been extremely beautiful by the human race standards, but unfortunately, her look could only be said to be average at best when she waspared to the beauties from the Fox n.
Of course, it was really unfair topare them like that since the Fox n was known as the most beautiful and charming race.
Despite that, Tang Li Xue did not want to unt orpare her looks with anyone, so she decided to stand a few steps behind the Third Prince and lowered her head in a low-key manner.
Because she had already worn [Aura Hiding Cloak] and [Moon Covering Veil], her presence had be even lower, and she was almostpletely unnoticeable to everyone.
Just when the beautiful young girl in a pink dress almost reached the Third Prince and spread her hands to give him a hug, the Third Prince suddenly raised his hand to stop her instead.
"Miss Lu Yixin, you are a daughter of an aristocratic family, so can you please act more reserved?" The Third Prince said coldly to the beautiful young girl in a pink dress.
The eyes of that beautiful young girl became teary as if she was greatly wronged by the Third Prince.
Even Tang Li Xue felt that the Third Prince was a bit too harsh to that beautiful young girl. But the beautiful young girl in a pink dress was actually ring resentfully at her instead! Tang Li Xue: ???!!!
Tang Li Xue looked around her in confusion to check if the beautiful young girl really red resentfully at her.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
''What the heck? Clearly, it was that guy who had said something harsh to her, but why the heck she red angrily at me instead?! There is definitely something wrong with this girl''s head, right?!'' Tang Li Xue thought as her expression darkened.
However, the beautiful young girl changed her expression quicker than a blink of an eye right before the Third Prince realized it, and she began to talk to the Third Prince again in a soft gentle tone: "Big Brother Yunfei, who is this person?"
The beautiful young girl''s coquettish tone and voice made Tang Li Xue have goosebumps, and her body felt cold.
Her feeling was really unpleasant as if her body was being wrapped and stared at by a poisonous snake.
Tang Li Xue had a strong hunch that the beautiful young girl in a pink dress was deliberately targeting her.
It was not hard for Tang Li Xue to guess the beautiful young girl''s reason for that. Tang Li Xue quickly realized that this beautiful young girl should like the Third Prince very much, but the Third Prince suddenly brought another girl who was much more beautiful than her back, so it made sense this beautiful young girl would get jealous because of it, right?
''Oh, wait a minute... How does she know that I am much more beautiful than her? I have already covered myself with (Aura Hiding Cloak] and [Moon Covering Veil], right? So, she should not be able to see my appearance until now.'' Tang Li Xue thought while frowning suspiciously.
Tang Li Xue smelled the thick stench of conspiracy behind all of this.
''Sigh... I see, so this should be about the struggle for the throne, huh... What a troublesome thing!'' Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm herself down.
Tang Li Xue had seen many movies or novels about this theme in her previous life.
''Three Kingdoms'' was one of her most favorite ones.
In short, she already knew how cruel the political struggle for the throne was because of that.
Something like blood rtives orpassion means nothing in front of the temptation of the throne.
To be honest, she really did not want to get herself involved in something bloody like this struggle for the throne, but she did not have any other choice right now.
Moreover, it was already far toote for her to regret it.
Because the moment she stepped into this Capital City of the Great Wei Dynasty with the Third Prince, she had already tied herself to the Third Prince''s side.
''Aisss, I had guessed that everything would not be that easy even if I hugged the ''thigh'' of this prince, but I had never expected that I would be greeted with such a troublesome conspiracy as soon as I got off from the carriage.'' Tang Li Xueined in her heart. Even the Third Prince was clearly annoyed by the nagging of a beautiful young girl in a pink dress, so he replied to her in a cold threatening tone: "This person is my life-saver, so Miss Lu, you better not do anything to insult or hurt her. If you really dare to do it, then I will..." "Then you will what?!" The beautiful girl in a pink dress asked with a face filled with tears. "Big Brother Yunfei, you have changed-!" The beautiful girl in a pink dress shouted angrily at the third prince before she ran back into the imperial pce.
The Third Prince did not bother to chase after the beautiful girl in a pink dress.
He turned around to face Tang Li Xue and exined to her with a doting expression: "I am
really sorry if that girl makes you ufortable, Miss Tang."
"No, it is all right." Tang Li Xue shook her head to show that she did not mind it at all.
"It seems there is some misunderstanding between that girl and me. Can I know who she is?" Tang Li Xue asked to the Third Prince.
Tang Li Xue actually did not feel curious about it, but it was a necessary piece of information for her to know in order to understand the overall situation in the imperial pce.
She would likely stay for quite some time in this imperial pce from now on after all.
The Third Prince hesitated for a while before he sighed and exined to Tang Li Xue while leading her to step into the gate of the imperial pce: "You still remember about the Great Wei Dynasty''s four most influential aristocratic families, right?"
Tang Li Xue nodded her head while following the Third Prince closely from behind and muttered: "Liu, Zhou, Chen, and Lu?"
"That girl is Lu Yixin, the daughter of the Lu Family. Oh, and she is also my fiance." The Third
Prince added.
Tang Li Xue: ???!!!
''Woah, that girl is actually this guy''s fiance?! I thought she was just his admirer or
something!'' Tang Li Xue eximed in her heart.
At first, Tang Li Xue thought that the Third Prince was truly a rude person since he even
treated his fiance like that.
But she immediately thought about the political struggle for the throne and realized that she should not judge the truth just by seeing it.
All kinds of bloody plots she had ever read in political dramas and novels emerged in her mind, something like betrayal, hidden conspiracy, and forced marriage.
Tang Li Xue hastily shook her head to push away the distracting thoughts while thinking: ''Anyway, that is none of my business to think about. I should just focus on what I had to do
next.''
The Third Prince began to tell Tang Li Xue about the Imperial Pce since there were many ces where she could not step into like the imperial court, imperial harem courtyards, cold
pce, and so on.
Tang Li Xue saw so many bright-colored flowers and nts that she had never seen before in
Lightwind Continent.
Because of them, Tang Li Xue also finally realized that the spiritual energy in this Azure Mist Continent was actually much denser and purer than in the Lightwind Continent.
That might be the main factor that made the flowers and nts here look much more fertile and special than in the Lightwind Continent.
Chapter 903: Chapter 903: Stats After Evolution!
Chapter 903: Chapter 903: Stats After Evolution!
?
While admiring the luxurious pce and beautiful bright-colored flowers or nts on her way under the Third Prince''s lead, Tang Li Xue suddenly staggered and felt dizzy.
Thankfully, the Third Prince acted quickly enough by grabbing her arm before she could fall and hit the ground.
"Miss Tang! Are you all right?" The Third Prince asked in a concerned tone.
''Damn it~! I really hate this weak body so much! I cannot dy it anymore! I have to find the solution to this as soon as possible!'' Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth and thought in great annoyance.
"It is okay. I am all right. Maybe I am just too tired after such a long journey." Tang Li Xue replied to the Third Prince.
The Third Prince instantly felt guilty and said: "It is my fault. I am not considerate enough. I should have realized it sooner. Let me lead you to your room, so you can take a rest right now,"
Tang Li Xue nodded in agreement and muttered politely: "I am sorry for making the Third Prince worry."
When Tang Li Xue followed the Third Prince, he quickly realized that the Third Prince brought her to his own courtyard, and her room was actually right beside the Third Prince''s room.
Although Tang Li Xue felt a bitfortable because of it, but she did not bother toin to the Third Prince.
Of course, it was not because Tang Li Xue began to be fond of the Third Prince or something, but because the protection around the Third Prince''s courtyard should be pretty tight, so her safety should be more assured.
However, the bad side of it was that her every movement would always be under the supervision of the Third Prince since all the guards and maids here were the Third Prince''s
people.
When they reached right in front of Tang Li Xue''s room, Tang Li Xue immediately bid her farewell to the Third Prince before she entered the room to rest.
There were still four maids who also entered the room and prepared to serve her such as helping her take off her clothes, helping her take a bath, and so on.
Tang Li Xue instantly rejected their intention by saying in a firm tone: "I do not want to do anything for now. I just want to sleep, so you all can go out and guard outside."
"But Young Miss..." The four maids murmured in hesitation.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and said again in a colder tone: "I cannot go to sleep when all of you are staring at me like this. You all do not need to worry. I will immediately call all of you after I wake upter."
"Or would rather I report all of you to His Highness Third Prince for your disobedience?!" Tang Li Xue questioned in a threatened tone.
The four maids hastily kneeled down and apologized in panic: "Please don''t do it, Young Miss! We understand. We will guard outside now. Please call us if you wake upter or if need something."
Tang Li Xue finally sighed in relief after she saw the four maids go out of her room.
In these few days when she traveled from the Iron Blooded Army''s camp to Capital City with the carriage, the Third Prince kept staring posessively at her, so she did not dare to do anything suspicious.
Tang Li Xue did not even dare to secretly take a peek at her current status window after she evolved to [Rare] Grade Beast under the Third Prince''s eyes.
After waiting so patiently for so long, Tang Li Xue finally managed to get away from the Third Prince and had time to do anything she wanted right now!
Tang Li Xue took off her [Aura Hiding Cloak] and [Moon Covering Veil], then threw them aside before she jumped on the soft bed and sat there in a pleasant mood.
Tang Li Xue excitedly rubbed her fair smooth hands together before she eximed: "System, open my status window and let me see my new evolved stats~!"

''Woah, there are actually a lot of new things~!'' Tang Li Xue excitedly eximed in her heart with a bright charming smile on her stunningly beautiful face.
Firstly, her mastery of the Profound Law of Heat and Cold jumped significantly from around 3% to 10% in an instant after her evolution!
This actually affected Tang Li Xue a lot since any increase in the Profound Law of Heat and Cold''s mastery meant her prototype domain would be closer to perfection and be a lot more powerful, and even her control of the me of Pride would be much more refined
and subtle.
Secondly, her total maximum HP had broken to over 500,000 in one go!
This also meant a lot for Tang Li Xue since her health regeneration had always counted on the
maximum HP percentage!
Having a higher maximum HP meant she would also regenerate more HP per second!
Thirdly... Of course, all of her stats! It had increased from a mere 5,000 to 12,000, they actually increased more than double!
Not to mention that this ''12,000'' was still far from her maximum limit, and she could continue to increase them further by consuming any precious treasures from now on!
And finally, the long-awaited Divine Abilities section...
"Wow~! One, two, three, four... I actually got four new divine abilities?!" Tang Li Xue eximed excitedly, but she immediately muffled her voice while checking her newly
awakened divine abilities.
However, Tang Li Xue instantly deted after she realized that she probably could not use any
of them in her current condition.
"System, look! My HP is still full, so I should be fully healthy, right?! Then why am I still in this pathetic condition right now?!" Tang Li Xue asked in a tone filled with annoyance. Indeed, her current HP still showed 505,000/505,000 in her status window, so logically, she should be in fully healthy condition at this point...
[Host should be grateful for the newly acquired [Super Fast Regeneration] for that.] [This [Super Fast Regeneration] was not awakened because of Host evolution to Rare-Grade Beast, but because Host''s [High-Speed Regeneration] skill had broken through the limit when Host was trapped in Void Space and died four times before.]
[At this time, the violently destructive space energy kept destroying every part of the Host''s body while the [Super Fast Regeneration] kept regenerating and healing them again and
again.]
[Without [Super Fast Regeneration], Host''s body would have alreadypletely disintegrated long ago even after Host managed to get out alive from the Void Space.]
[This was the true horror of the Void Space and the main reason why no one had survived after they fell into the Void Space.]
Tang Li Xue''s slender body shuddered violently in fear and horror after she heard her System''s exnation and recalled the helpless moment when she was trapped in the Void
Space before.
She felt really lucky that she could activate the [Greater Lucky Sticker] on time right before
she fell into the Void Space.
Yes, Tang Li Xue was 100% sure that the only reason she could survive that deadly situation
was because she had [Greater Lucky Sticker Buff] at that time.
It was a truly thrilling moment filled with Heaven-defying thick plot armor, and Tang Li Xue could feel what it was like to be a protagonist in a movie or novel at that time.
Even so, Tang Li Xue would never want to be in the same situation ever again!
She knew really well how bad her luck was without [Greater Lucky Sticker Buff). Even her ring ne, [Huang''s Family Heirloom Ring], with the Luck +30 effect could only offset her bad luck at best!
"Aisss, now I have no more [Greater Lucky Sticker]! I felt really uneasy and insecure without it in my storage inventory!" Tang Li Xue groaned in heartache.

?
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath in shock and disbelief when she checked the [Super-Fast Regeneration]''s effect.
[Super-Fast Regeneration]: Recover 5% of the user''s maximum HP every second.
5% of her current total maximum HP of 500,000 points was 25,000!
It should be known that Tang Li Xue''s previous total maximum HP was only at 99,000 points when she was at the [Umon] grade beast, so healing 25,000 points every second was the same as healing a quarter of Tang Li Xue''s previous maximum HP every second!
"Holy cow, this [Super-Fast Regeneration] is so awesomely powerful~! No wonder it could go toe-to-toe with the violently destructive space energy!" Tang Li Xue eximed in admiration.
In short, the violently destructive space energy in Tang Li Xue''s body should disintegrate around 25,000 points of Tang Li Xue''s HP every second, but [Super-Fast Regeneration] kept regenerating 25,000 points of Tang Li Xue''s HP every second.
Well, the damage count should look like -25,000, +25,000, -25,000, +25,000... and it kept repeating until now.
The fierce destruction and regeneration had reached the perfect bnce that Tang Li Xue''s HP seemed to no longer move, but if she somehow got injured again at this time, then her [Super-Fast Regeneration] could no longer heal Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue shook her head again in frustration.
This was not a problem she could handle quickly, so she could only leave it for now.
[The actual situation is actually much worse than Host thought, so Host better handle it properly as soon as possible.]
"Eh, what do you mean?" Tang Li Xue asked while frowning deeply in worry.
[Does Host know the reason why you cannot use any of your martial arts, skills, or divine abilities right now?]
Tang Li Xue instantly felt a bad feeling about this and asked: "Why?"
[Because the violently destructive space energy in the Host body kept trying to crush the Host''s Dantian and Beast Core!]
[If not for this System''s help, Host''s Dantian and Beast Core would have already disintegrated by now, and Host''s cultivation and Beast power would have beenpletely crippled!]
[Currently, Host''s body, Dantian, and Beast Core are like a fragile vase filled with countless cracks, and they could break apart in one gentle touch.]
[If Host is not careful and gets fatally injured again in this current condition, everything would truly fall apart, then Host''s entire body would really disintegrate into nothingness!]
Tang Li Xue''s body shuddered violently in fright and horror after she heard her System''s dreadful warning.
But Tang Li Xue calmed down after a while as she muttered: "I see, so I just need to never get fatally injured again until Ipletely recover, right?"
[That is right. But Host better do something quickly because even the [Sun And Moon Aegis]''s fatal blow protections are not avable in Host''s current condition.]
"Okay, I get it..." Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes andzily replied to her System.
Previously, her damn System warned that it would take a long time for her to recover, but now it urged her to do something as soon as possible. What an unreliable System is this?!
The System seemed to sense Tang Li Xue''s thought, so it immediately added...
[Everything must start with the first step, but the Host did not even do anything in these few days!]
"Do you really think I did not do anything because I am toozy or something?! It was because that annoying prince kept watching me, so I did not dare to do anything suspicious, okay?!" Tang Li Xue argued angrily to her System.
Unfortunately, her System had already gone silent and no longer paid any attention to her.
The angry and annoyed Tang Li Xue decided to continue to check the rest of her newly acquired divine abilities and skills.
She was surprised again when she found out that her two favorite signature divine abilities, [Sun Dragon ws] and [Sun Dragon Fangs], had actually merged to [Sun Dragon Incarnation]!
"[Sun Dragon Incarnation]?! Woah, does it mean I can summon out aplete Sun Dragon Avatar from now on?!" Tang Li Xue eximed excitedly as she almost jumped from her bed in
delight.
Fortunately, she immediately remembered her current weak and sickly condition, so she no longer did any sudden strenuous moves.
Just imagining using both [Sun Dragon Incarnation] and [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] at the same time to condense the golden sun me dragon and the purple lightning dragon at the same time was already enough to make Tang Li Xue''s blood boil with excitement.
But regretfully, she could not use [Sun Dragon Incarnation] nor [World-Destroying Lightning Dragon] in her current condition, so Tang Li Xue could only put that n on hold for now. The next newly acquired divine abilities were [Starfall] and [Frost Moon].
[Starfall] was the star-based attack type divine ability while (Frost Moon] was the moon- based attack type divine ability.
Even though Tang Li Xue was really curious about the power of these two new divine abilities, but there was nothing she could do to try them in her current condition since she could not use any of her martial arts, divine abilities, and skills.
Next was her Imperial Moon Dancer battle style.
All skills in the Imperial Moon Dancer battle style had evolved into new skills, and she even got an additional new one.
[Moonlight shing Edge (Lv1), Moonlight Flickering Dance Step (Lv1), Moon Shattering st (Lv1), Crescent Moon Cleave (Lv1)]
Just looking at their names, Tang Li Xue could already guess that they should have be much more powerful than before.
She really wanted to try to test using them so badly, but regretfully again, she could not do it in her current condition...
Right after she evolved to [Rare] Grade Beast, she also awakened another new regalia ability, [Celestial Eclipse].
Tang Li Xue tapped the [Celestial Eclipse] to check the description effect of this new ability.
[Celestial Eclipse]: Condense the absolute domain with thebination power of Sun, Moon, and Stars!
Effect: All the skills and divine abilities rted to the Sun, Moon, and Stars would be greatly improved in the [Celestial Eclipse] domain, including other abilities in the Regalia of
Celestial Sky.
If the user species, bloodlines, or the energy inside the user''s body also contain anything rted to the Sun, Moon, or Stars, the overall strength and stats would also be greatly
improved.
(The total improvement granted by this power depends on the user''s Strength stat.)
(The duration of this power depends on the User''s Spirit stat.)
(Cooldown: 3 days)
"It is actually a domain-type regalia~! Awesome~!" Tang Li Xue gasped in shock for a few
moments before she eximed excitedly.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Different from the previous two regalia powers, this [Celestial Eclipse] would actually
directly improve her overall strength greatly after she activated it!
The effect was really simple, but Tang Li Xue liked it very muchpared to the powerful butplicated abilities like the previous two regalia powers!
Not only that, her System had already given Tang Li Xue a new chain quest after Tang Li Xuepleted the previous one, but Tang Li Xue could only read it now.
[Chain Side-Quest (IV): True Evolution of Life!]
[Quest: Evolve to (Epic) Grade Beast.]
[Reward: Regalia of Celestial Sky 4th Power!]
"I need to evolve to (Epic) Grade Beast to awaken the 4th Power?! Oh well, let''s just forget it
for now." Tang Li Xue shook her head in disappointment.
It was still a long way before she could evolve into a Spirit Beast after all.
She might even need a few years to reach her current maximum level if everything goes
smoothly.
Not to mention that she would need to collect the evolution items which would definitely be much rarer and precious than the previous ones she needed when she evolved to [Rare] Grade
Beast.
Thest thing Tang Li Xue wanted to check was the new equipment she obtained from [Premium essories Chest].
[Myriad Manifestation Fox Mask]
Level: 1
Spirit: +10%
Presence: -20%
Stealth: +20%
Concentration and focus: +10%
Mind-rted skills or abilities increased by 10%
Equipment Skill: Thousand Myriad Faces (The wearer can perfectly disguise as anyone, including the target''s clothes, appearance, body shape, aura, smell, cultivation, and so on which makes anyone unable to see through easily. Duration: 3 hours. Cooldown: 3 hours.)
(PS: The wearer''s strength and cultivation still remain as usual, so do not think the wearer will also replicate the target''s skills or strength just by disguising as them. The wearer can
cancel the disguise at any time, and the disguise can also break if the wearer receives any strong attack.)
Equipment Effect: Spirit Detection (The wearer can perceive if someone or something is observing the wearer.)
"Damn, another jackpot~! What a great equipment~!" Tang Li Xue eximed excitedly.
Tang Li Xue was especially very fond of the [Myriad Manifestation Fox Mask]''s equipment skill, [Thousand Myriad Faces].
Although [Thousand Myriad Faces] had some limitations, but it was undoubtedly a divine
skill for escaping!
Tang Li Xue''s mood instantly felt a lot relieved after she read the [Myriad Manifestation Fox
Mask]''s skill and effect.
At least, she could run away at any time from this pce with [Thousand Myriad Faces] if the
situation went awryter.
Not to mention that [Spirit Detection] effect from [Myriad Manifestation Fox Mask] was also
equally important.
Even though she already had [Extrasensory Perception], but it mostly worked to sense iing danger rather than detection, and it also had a limited radius.
Meanwhile, [Spirit Detection] made Tang Li Xue able to sense anyone or anything who
observed her regardless of the range.
Tang Li Xue immediately wore the [Myriad Manifestation Fox Mask] on her face without any
hesitation.
Just like the other equipment she obtained from System, Tang Li Xue could toggle [Myriad Manifestation Fox Mask], so anyone could also see it, but she did not bother to do it.
It would be better if no one noticed that she was always wearing [Myriad Manifestation Fox Mask], so it would not attract anyone''s suspicion, and she could use [Thousand Myriad Faces]
at any time.
Chapter 905: Choosing Space Elemental Cultivation Technique!
905 Chapter 905: Choosing Space Elemental Cultivation Technique!
After checking all of the new things she obtained, Tang Li Xue finally decided to do the most important thing she had to do!
She carefully took out the [Premium Cultivation Voucher] from her System''s item storage.
Previously,Tang Li Xue treated this [Premium Cultivation Voucher] as a tasteless garbage item andpletely ignored it because she already had [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art], [Yin and Yang Chaotic Form], and [Divine Soul Forge], so she thought she no longer needed another cultivation techniques.
Who knew that this [Premium Cultivation Voucher] actually became her only hope to fully recover right now?!
Just when Tang Li Xue wanted to use [Premium Cultivation Voucher], the System gave another reminder to Tang Li Xue.
[Rather than considering this current situation as a disaster, Host could consider this as a rare chance to obtain the Space-elemental ability through the space-elemental cultivation technique instead.]
[If Host can choose the most suitable space-elemental cultivation technique, Host will know how precious this opportunity ister.]
Tang Li Xue frowned and asked curiously: "Precious opportunity? What do you mean by that?"
[The skills or abilities with five basic elementals are the easiest to obtain.]
[The light or darkness elemental skills or abilities are much rarer.]
[As for the Space or Time elemental skills or abilities, they are the rarest ones and require really special precious opportunity to get them.]
[The main reason why that Heaven''s Favored child from Host''s fox n can be that powerful is because she has Time elemental divine ability.]
[If Host can make use of this chance to get Space elemental skill or ability, Host might have a chance topete equally against that girlter.]
Tang Li Xue instantly grasped in surprise after she heard her System''s exnation.
She had to admit that she was really moved by her System''s words.
Tang Li Xue had already seen how strong Meng Yue was in the previous Foxes Hunting Festival.
No one could stand a chance against her, and even the mysterious shadow night fox, Ye Youling, with her extremely powerful darkness elemental divine abilities was only yed around by Meng Yue in the end.
"A chance to get Space elemental ability, huh?! Then I will dly take it~!" Tang Li Xue muttered in a burning passionate tone.
Then Tang Li Xue instantly used the [Premium Cultivation Voucher] in her grasp.
*Ding!
[Premium Cultivation Voucher has been activated! You can choose any top cultivation technique/martial art manual you want!]
There was a very long list of cultivation techniques and martial arts manuals that appeared in Tang Li Xue''s vision.
It was so much that Tang Li Xue felt dizzy just by looking at them, and the name of each of them looked very powerful truly befitting for the name of the top techniques.
"Just filter all of these and show me only the Space elemental cultivation techniques." Tang Li Xue instructed eagerly.
[Time and Space Emperor Scripture]
[Space Cutting de Technique]
[Void God Martial Scripture]
[Grandmist Space Sutra]
[Boundless Sword Skill]
[Void Shrinking Immortal Step]
.....
Tang Li Xue inhaled a deep breath to calm down her shock when she saw dozens of extremely powerful-looking Space elemental cultivation techniques.
All of these techniques were so strong that if anyone could master even one of them, they would definitely be the protagonist of any era!
Tang Li Xue almost could not hold back herself and chose [Time and Space Emperor Scripture], since the name looked like the strongest one out of the bunch.
But she quickly held herself back after she recalled her System''s words.
[If Host can choose the most suitable space-elemental cultivation technique, Host will know how precious this opportunity ister.]
Tang Li Xue deduced that the hidden keyword behind these words should be the ''most suitable'' space-elemental cultivation technique.
''So rather than choosing the strongest one, I should choose the most suitable space-elemental cultivation technique for my current condition, right?'' Tang Li Xue thought deeply.
Tang Li Xue took her time to check the cultivation techniques carefullyone by one.
Finally, her eyes fell on the lower part of the list...
[Void Divinities Refining Method]
For unknown reasons, Tang Li Xue suddenly felt that this cultivation technique should be the most suitable for her current condition.
After hesitating for a long time, Tang Li Xue eventually gritted her pearl-white teeth and decided to choose this [Void Divinities Refining Method].
[Are you sure you want to choose the Void Divinities Refining Method? Yes/No]
"Oh, God, Buddha, Uncle Sun, Jade Emperor, or whoever heard my prayers please grant me all of your blessings and luck..." Tang Li Xue solemnly prayed in her heart.
Then her slender finger chose the ''Yes'' option.
BOOOOOOOOMM~!
All of the information about the [Void Divinities Refining Method] instantly poured into her mind like a massive flood.
Even though Tang Li Xue had already felt this once before when she learned [Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art], but she would never get used to this horrible way of injecting the knowledge directly into her mind.
It truly felt really awful as if her brain was pried open and stuffed with a lot of things inside it.
Fortunately, her Spirit stat had already improved many times higher than before, so she could digest the knowledge faster, and the awful feeling alsosted very short because of it.
Tang Li Xue hissed while rubbing her forehead to ease the splitting headache, and even her stunningly beautiful face became much paler.
Tang Li Xue sat cross-legged and closed her topaz blue eyes to digest all the knowledge about [Void Divinities Refining Method].
After Tang Li Xuepletely sorted out all the knowledge about [Void Divinities Refining Method] and opened her topaz blue eyes again, she immediately eximed in great admiration: "What a crazy cultivation technique~! I do not know if the person who created this cultivation technique is a peerless genius or a madman who has lost his mind..."
In terms of theory, this [Void Divinities Refining Method] was quite simple. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
[Void Divinities Refining Method] taught how to gather spatial energy and condense ''Void Seed'' in Dantian.
Then Void Seed would automatically absorb the surrounding spatial energy all the time and keep growing on its own.
From Void Seed to Void Seal, Void Core, Void Spirit, and eventually be Void Divinity.
Condensing ''Void Seed'' would grant the power above the Qi Condensation Stage.
''Void Seal'' would grant the strength over the Foundation Establishment Stage.
''Void Core'' would grant the strength beyond the Core Formation Stage.
''Void Spirit'' would grant the strength surpassing the Nascent Soul Stage.
As for ''Void Divinity'', it should represent the strength transcending the cultivation level above the Nascent Soul Stage.
Until this point, it was still normal, but the next part was the one that made Tang Li Xuepletely baffled.
This [Void Divinities Refining Method] actually taught that she could condense more than just one ''Void Seed''!
At the first level, Tang Li Xue had to condense three ''Void Seeds'' in her three Dantians: Lower Dantian, Middle Dantian, and Upper Dantian.
At the second level, Tang Li Xue had to condense twenty ''Void Seeds'' in her twelve main meridians and eight extraordinary meridians.
At the third level, Tang Li Xue had to condense 720 ''Void Seeds'' in her 720 acupuncture points.
At the final fourth level, Tang Li Xue had to condense ''Void Seeds'' in her every cell.
It was said that human has around 30 trillion cells in their body.
How many cells are in Tang Li Xue''s body?
Well... She also doesn''t know it either.
But she knew that as long as she evolved to a higher-grade beast, her cells would probably increase in number.
If Tang Li Xue managed to condense two ''Void Seeds'', she would get double the strength of the Qi Condensation Stage. Every time she condensed another one, the strength would be doubled again.
Imagine if Tang Li Xue managed to have 30 trillion Void Divinities in her body... Even destroying the stars with one sneeze was not impossible!
Of course, that was all just theoretically for now...
Condensing so many ''Void Seeds'' was already an arduous task, not to mention those ''Void Seeds'' need to go through several phases before they could be ''Void Divinities''.
How long would she have to wait for a ''Void Seed'' to grow into ''Void Divinity''?!
How much spatial energy is needed for a ''Void Seed'' to grow into ''Void Divinity''?!
Wanting to have 30 trillion ''Void Divinities'' might be a more difficult task for Tang Li Xue than bing a Fox Deity.
But it was truly undoubtedly that this [Void Divinities Refining Method] should be the most suitable technique for Tang Li Xue''s current situation.
Using the violent destructive space energy in her body to condense ''Void Seed'' should not be a hard thing to do for Tang Li Xue, and she should even be able to speed up the process a lot.
Oh yes, this [Void Divinities Refining Method] could also increase the lifespan of the person who practiced it.
For each ''Void Seed'' condensed, it would increase lifespan by 1 year.
Each Void Seal would increase lifespan by 10 years.
Each Void Core would increase lifespan by 100 years.
Each Void Spirit would increase lifespan by 1000 years.
Each Void Divinity would increase lifespan by 10,000 years.
If Tang Li Xue really managed to sessfully condense 30 trillion ''Void Divinities'', then her total lifespan would be... err, well, a lot.
It could be said from all of its effects that this [Void Divinities Refining Method] should be the peerless divine cultivation technique... in terms of theory alone.
But the difficulty level, the time, and the energy needed for it actually did not make any sense.
Tang Li Xue shook her head in disappointment before saying: "Anyway, I do not need to think too far about that for now. I just need to use this [Void Divinities Refining Method] to consume and refine the violent destructive space energy in my body, so I can recover back to normal as soon as possible."
This cultivation technique seems awesome~! We will see if Tang Li Xue could get Space elemental abilityter, so don''t miss the next chapter! (>w<)

Chapter 906: Condensing First Void Seed!
906 Chapter 906: Condensing First ''Void Seed''!
Before she began to cultivate [Void Divinities Refining Method], Tang Li Xue released Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia from her System''s pet space first.
"Kweeaak~!"
"Nyaooow~!"
"Yaaaa~!"
The three of them immediately jumped toward Tang Li Xue in worry.
Tang Li Xueughed at their cuteness and said to them in a reassuring tone: "You all do not need to worry. As you all can see, I am all right~!"
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue''s words could not fool Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia as they kept staring at her with a pair of teary eyes filled with guilt.
Just looking at Tang Li Xue''s extremely pale face, Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia could already guess that Tang Li Xue was far from all right.
Tang Li Xue patted their heads gently while muttering: "I am really okay. I just got a little injured, but that is all. It might take a while for me topletely recover though, so I need your help right now."
Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia instantly put a solemn expression as if they were determined to sacrifice their life for Tang Li Xue.
Their reaction was so funny that Tang Li Xueughed at them again.
"It is not something urgent or dangerous. It is just that I will need some private time to cultivate, so I can recover faster. I need you three to guard me, so no one will disturb me while I am focusing on doing it." Tang Li Xue exined to Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia.
Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia immediately patted their chest with smug expressions before they jumped down from the bed and guarded around Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue smiled with a satisfied expression while looking at them before she took a deep breath and sat cross-legged on the top of her soft bed.
Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes and began to operate the [Void Divinities Refining Method] step by step.
After ten minutes or so, she finallypleted the first cycle of the [Void Divinities Refining Method] and refined some violent destructive space energy in her body, then transformed it into the first strand of pure spatial energy.
Honestly, the process was actually much more taxing than Tang Li Xue thought. It was mainly because her current pathetic body condition was too weak and fragile, so she had to do it really carefully.
If she somehow got careless and the process went out of control, Tang Li Xue''s body would definitely explode and disintegrate into nothingness!
That was also the reason why she asked Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia to guard her, so no one would disturb her while she was focused on practicing [Void Divinities Refining Method].
The bright sun had begun to set, and the sky slowly turned dark.
Tang Li Xue''s cultivation also reached a critical point after she managed to refine more than a hundred strands of pure spatial energy from the violent destructive space energy in her body.
Tang Li Xue nned to use these hundred strands of pure spatial energy to condense her first ''Void Seed'' right now!
Despite that, she really did not want to give up this rare opportunity to condense her first ''Void Seed'' since she might not have another chance to be alone like today.
KNOCK~! KNOCK~! KNOCK~!
Right at this time, the maid outside Tang Li Xue''s room suddenly knocked on the door and said: "Young Miss, the dinner is ready. His Highness the Third Prince has been waiting for you toe and have dinner together."
Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia instantly tensed as they immediately ran and tried to block the door with their bodies, so the maid would note in at this moment since it would be extremely fatal for Tang Li Xue if someone interrupted her right at this moment!
KNOCK~! KNOCK~! KNOCK~!
"Young Miss?" The maid called as she knocked on the door harder after Tang Li Xue had not replied maybe because she thought that Tang Li Xue was still sleeping inside the room.
Tang Li Xue could not reply to the maid or give any instruction to Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia since she was currently in the critical moment of condensing the ''Void Seed''.
After knocking several times for a few minutes or so but still not getting any answer from Tang Li Xue, the maid began to feel impatient as she tried to push open the door and enter the room to wake Tang Li Xue up, but no matter how she tried to push the door, it still would not budge.
Of course, the maid could not push open the door since Little Loki in its battle form, Yaya, and Lucia were still blocking right behind the door with their bodies!
The maid became more and more anxious and worried. She started banging on the door harder while shouting: "Young Miss?! Are you all right? Can you please open the door now?" n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
If something untoward happened to Tang Li Xue, the heads of all maids who served Tang Li Xue would surely beheaded by the Third Princeter!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
The other maids also got nervous as they banged on the door of Tang Li Xue''s room loudly and tried to push open the door together.
But how could their meager strength push back Little Loki in its battle form, Yaya, and Lucia who were blocking behind the door?!
In the end, those maids decided to give up and just report this to the Third Prince instead!
They would definitely get scolded harshly by the Third Prince, but it was still much better than losing their heads if something bad really happened to Tang Li Xue.
Just like what they had expected, the Third Prince''s expression instantly turned cold and murderous as he scolded them: "Get out of my sigh, you useless trashes!"
The Third Prince waved his sleeve, and his spiritual energy threw away those kowtowed maids dozens of meters until they spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood and passed out.
Then the Third Prince hastily brought several of his guards along with an imperial physician toward Tang Li Xue''s room.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
BOOOOOOOOOM~!
Just when the Third Prince and his people almost reached Tang Li Xue''s room, Tang Li Xue herself finally managed to sessfully condense her first ''Void Seed''!
"Yes, finally sess~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in an excited tone as she opened her mesmerizing topaz blue eyes in delight.
But after she calmed down her excitement, she immediately slumped weakly on her bed in great exhaustion.
To be honest, Tang Li Xue really pushed herself too far in these few hours, but there was no doubt that she was very satisfied with the result.
From now on, even if she did not do anything, her first ''Void Seed'' would automatically absorb and refine the violent destructive space energy in her body, then it would grow to Void Seal, from Void Seal to Void Core, from Void Core to Void Spirit, and in the end, it would evolve to Void Divinity.
However, Tang Li Xue''s delightful expression froze after she realized the amount of the violent destructive space energy raging in her body only consumed less than 0.5%.
"Sigh, I know that it would not be that easy, but isn''t this too difficult?! Should I use this to trigger a quest from my System?" Tang Li Xue gloomily muttered.
But she quickly rejected that idea...
No one knew how long it would take for her topletely refine all the violent destructive space energy in her body.
She could only take one quest, and she would not be able to take another one until shepleted it after all.
It would be really bad if the quest topletely refine the violent destructive space energy raging in her body stuck for several years, then she would not be able to take another quest to level up at that time.
"Oh, well... At least, I am no longerpletely powerless right now." Tang Li Xue murmured in a helpless tone.
Yes, Tang Li Xue currently possessed the strength above the Qi Condensation Stage after she condensed a ''Void Seed''.
In other words, she could beat any Qi Condensation Stage cultivators!
Of course, it was still very far away from her true full strength, but at least, she had enough strength to protect herself from weak perverts or hoodlums.
Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia only dared to approach Tang Li Xue after she smiled at them and waved her hand to call them.
Lucia shrunk her body size while Little Loki returned to its kitten form before the three of them immediately jumped onto Tang Li Xue''s embrace in worry.
"Little Loki, Yaya, Lucia! Thank you very much for protecting me~! I promise that I will treat you all to eat delicious food soon but before that..." After patting and caressing them gently for a few moments, Tang Li Xue quickly put the three of them back into her System''s pet space.
Little Loki, Yaya, and Luciained unhappily to Tang Li Xue, but she hastily exined to them: "All right, I am really sorry, okay?! But I had created a lot ofmotion just now, so there would be many people who woulde here to check. I do not want them to see you three, so I can only do this."
After hearing Tang Li Xue''s helpless exnation, Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia finally calmed down and epted their fate.
Just like Tang Li Xue had guessed, the Third Prince actually came right at this time with all of his people.
So sorry for thete update, I rested enough in the previous month and recovered well, so hopefully I can publish the chapter daily again this month.
Chapter 907: Poison!
907 Chapter 907: Poison!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
"Miss Tang, are you okay?!" The Third Prince impatiently shouted while knocking on the door of Tang Li Xue''s door.
Tang Li Xue hastily fixed her untidy attire, then wore [Aura Hiding Cloak] to cover her silvery fox tails and ears.
She also wore [Moon Covering Veil] to cover her stunningly beautiful face before she replied: "I am all right. His Highness Third Prince cane in now."
The Third Prince tried to push open the door, but this time, he could easily push the door open since Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia no longer blocked behind the door.
"Miss Tang! Are you really okay? Your face looks so pale right now." The Third Prince worriedly said as he approached Tang Li Xue who was lying weakly on the bed.
But Tang Li Xue shook her head and replied: "I am all right. I just forced myself to practice too much just now."
The Third Prince hastily called the imperial physician who was waiting outside with the guards to check Tang Li Xue''s condition.
The imperial physician''s diagnosis was actually the same as the military physicians in the Iron-Blooded Army''s Camp.
"Hmm, this is strange. There is powerful destructive energy destroying her body from inside. It is already a miracle that her body can still remain intact and alive right now." The imperial physician muttered in a great interest.
Tang Li Xue rolled her charming topaz blue eyes andined in her heart: ''Miracle your head~! This is clearly because of my strength, [Yin Yang Celestial Sky Fox Bloodline], and [Super-Fast Regeneration], okay?!''
"Doctor Li, do you have a way topletely cure her?" The Third Prince asked in an anxious tone.
The imperial physician Li thought for a while before he shook his head and exined: "The powerful destructive energy has spread to every corner of her body. There is nothing I can do unless Your Highness Third Prince can ask for an Enlightenment Stage senior for help to extract the powerful destructive energy out of her body."
Tang Li Xue: "Enlightenment Stage senior?"
Third Prince: "Enlightenment Stage senior?!"
Tang Li Xue asked back curiously while the Third Prince eximed in disbelief.
This was the first time Tang Li Xue had heard about the ''Enlightenment Stage''.
Tang Li Xue had a hunch that ''The Enlightenment Stage'' should be the realm above the Nascent Soul Stage, but she was not really sure about it yet.
The Third Prince helplessly shook his head while saying: "Where could I find any Enlightenment Stage senior? All of them live like reclusive sages, and no one could even get a glimpse of their shadows unless they were the ones who allowed it."
Tang Li Xue really itched to ask about the ''Enlightenment Stage'', but she was afraid that the Third Prince would immediately realize that she was not the person... or rather the fox from this continent, so she could only suppress her curiosity for now.
The imperial physician Li wrote a recipe and gave it to the Third Prince while exining to him: "This medicine concoction might not be able to cure this girl, but it can at least relieve her pain and nourish her body for a while. She has to consume this medicine three times a day: in the morning, noon, and evening. Of course, this only works temporarily. Once she stops consuming this medicine even for a day, her condition will worsen again."
The Third Prince looked dejected after he heard the imperial physician Li''s exnation. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue looked nonchnt, as if it was not her who had been diagnosed by the imperial physician Li.
If the others saw their expression, they might think that the Third Prince was the one who was ill instead.
After the Third Prince let the imperial physician Li back, the Third Prince sat with a gloomy and sorrowful expression beside Tang Li Xue''s bed as he stretched his hands to hold Tang Li Xue''s smooth fair hand.
Tang Li Xue almost reflexively pulled her hand from the Third Prince''s grasp, but she held back the urge since she did not want to reveal that she already had strength above the Qi Condensation Stage to the Third Prince yet.
She was so fragile and weak that she could not even walk for half an hour this morning, so how could she exin that she could suddenly have strength above the Qi Condensation Stage at this moment?!
"I am sorry, Miss Tang. I thought the imperial physician should be able to cure you, but..." The Third Prince said in a distressed tone.
Tang Li Xue shook her head and replied: "It is not Your Highness Third Prince''s fault. I know my own condition the best, so I understand how hard it is to cure this illness."
Before the Third Prince could say anything, Tang Li Xue hastily changed the subject while blushing in embarrassment: "Has the Third Prince had dinner yet? I have not eaten anything yet, so I am very hungry right now."
Well... To be honest, it was Tang Li Xue''s three little friends who were very hungry...
The Third Princeughed in amusement as he ordered his guards: "Hahaha, bring all the food here. This prince will eat dinner in Miss Tang''s ce today~!"
When they ate dinner together, the Third Prince was once again dumbfounded by Tang Li Xue''s eating portion.
She almost ate the entire table full of food alone, and even asked for more!
Tang Li Xue herself felt really embarrassed when she saw the Third Prince''s astonished expression, but there was nothing she could do since she needed to feed her three greedy little friends.
Just like before, Tang Li Xue secretly sent most of the foods to her System''s pet space without the Third Prince noticing it.
Lucia liked to eat vegetables, Yaya liked to eat fruits, while Little Loki could eat anything, so it would eat the rest.
However, Tang Li Xue really felt grateful to the Third Prince that all the food served was actually filled with nutrition and spiritual energy.
Tang Li Xue was quite sure that these foods should be made from precious ingredients.
Maybe the Third Prince deliberately prepared them for Tang Li Xue to nourish her weak and fragile body.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue herself actually only ate a very small portion of the food, since her current fragile and weak body could not stand eating too many foods with extremely rich spiritual energy, or her body would probably burst.
After finishing their dinner, the Third Prince still wanted to stay and chatted with Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue was already extremely tired after she spent most of her energy condensing the first ''Void Seed'' before.
13:37
She unconsciously fell asleep when the Third Prince chatted with her.
The Third Prince could only chuckle in amusement, but he did not n to wake up Tang Li Xue.
He ordered the maids to carry the sleeping Tang Li Xue to the bed and left Tang Li Xue''s room with his guards who had been guarding outside all this time.
The next morning when the morning sunlight prated Tang Li Xue''s room through the window gap, Tang Li Xue''s body jolted awake when she saw the unfamiliar luxurious room.
It took her a while to wake uppletely and realize that she was actually in the imperial pce of the Wei Dynasty.
Tang Li Xue sighed while muttering sadly: "This room is truly luxurious, but I miss myfortable house in Myriad Foxes Academy very much. I wonder if I can reallye back thereter."
As she thought that she might never see all of her close friends such as Silly Fox, Bingbing, Instructor Lan, and others, Tang Li Xue felt even more depressed and sad.
When she recalled herst farewell with Xiao Hei, Tang Li Xue felt very regretful as if her heart was stabbed deep with a knife.
"Even though I did all of that just so Instructor Lan can let Xiao Hei go, but I really should not be that harsh to him." Tang Li Xue muttered in a regretful tone.
That might be one of the reasons, but the other reason was that Tang Li Xue was actually very pissed off and disappointed when she saw Xiao Hei protect the other girl so desperately right in front of her.
But after thinking about it from Xiao Hei''s perspective, she suddenly felt that she acted really childish and unreasonable at that time.
Unfortunately, it was already far toote for her to regret it since she might never be able to see Xiao Hei again from now on.
Tang Li Xue could only silently pray in her heart that this Azure Mist Continent was actually not that far away from Lightwind Continent, so she coulde back to Lightwind Continent more easilyter.
However, Tang Li Xue silently knew in her heart that it was unlikely since the concentration of the spiritual energy in this Azure Mist Continent was so high, it meant this Azure Mist Continent should be closer to the Central Continent while the Lightwind Continent with its extremely thin spiritual energy should be very far away from Central Continent.
Knock~! Knock~! Knock~!
"Have you already wake up, Young Miss?" The maid knocked on Tang Li Xue''s door from outside and asked in a soft tone.
Tang Li Xue hastily wiped the tears on her face before she shouted to them: "Yes, I have already woken up. You cane in."
Several maids entered Tang Li Xue''s room, then began to tidy up Tang Li Xue''s appearance and change her clothes.
After that, one of the maids gave a concocted medicine to Tang Li Xue while exining: "Young Miss, this is your medicine. Imperial Physician Li said that you must drink this three times a day."
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched, and she felt repulsive as she smelled the pungent smell of Chinese medicine from the ck concoction, but she still forced herself to drink it.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized that something was not right after she gulped down all the concocted medicine.
''Damn it~! This medicine is actually poisonous!'' Tang Li Xue thought in panic.

Chapter 908: Chapter 908: Got In Trouble!
?
Moreover, the poison mixed in the concocted medicine was so lethal that it could even kill any Core Formation Stage expert in one sip!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue''s [Yin Yang Celestial Sky Fox Bloodline] immediately worked to neutralize the poison.
The lethal poison was instantly eliminated by Tang Li Xue''s [Yin Yang Celestial Sky Fox Bloodline], but it also broke the delicate bnce in Tang Li Xue''s body and gave the extremely violent destructive space energy a chance to go berserk!
"PUUUUFF~!" Tang Li Xue spurted a mouthful of blood and fainted as the extremely violent destructive space energy shocked and injured her internal organs!
"Young miss~!" The maids hastily caught the fainted Tang Li Xue before she could fall onto the ground.
The news about Tang Li Xue coughing out blood and fainting quickly reached the Third Prince''s ears.
The Third Prince was extremely angry and ordered his people to investigate it as soon as possible.
The Third Prince also invited the Imperial Physician Li, then they went to Tang Li Xue''s room together to check Tang Li Xue''s condition.
It did not take long for them to know that Tang Li Xue''s medicine was actually mixed with lethal poison after some investigations.
The enraged Third Prince ordered his guards to catch all the maids who were serving Tang Li Xue today and ordered his guards to torture all of them until they confessed who did it.
Unfortunately, the Third Prince still could not find the culprit behind the incident even after his people tortured all of the maids until they were dead.
This incident actually affected the Third Prince very much since it made him very insecure.
How could someone under his protection still get poisoned even when she was living in his courtyard?!
The gloomy Third Prince quickly made his move and reported this incident to his imperial mother, Zhou Yansui, and his imperial brother, the First Prince, Wei Qingfeng.
The atmosphere in the Imperial Pce was heating up as thepetition between the two factions became fiercer from that day.
When Tang Li Xue regained consciousness again, an entire day had already passed.
"Damn it~! What a shitty pce is this?! How the heck can someone actually poison me on the second day after I stepped into this shitty pce?!" Tang Li Xueined in anger and frustration while gnashing her pearl-white teeth.
She already knew that she would definitely be trapped in the swirl of conspiracy for the throne after she stepped into this Imperial Pce, but she never thought that the danger was actually much greater than she had ever estimated!
Tang Li Xue instantly felt regretful again.
"If I knew it would be this dangerous, I would rather choose to travel outside alone than enter this shitty pce." Tang Li Xue murmured in a helpless tone.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Unfortunately, it was already far toote for her to regret it since it should not be that easy for her to just leave this pce under the Third Prince''s extremely tight supervision.
Not to mention the Third Prince''s enemies would definitely also keep an eye of her every movement.
Even if she managed to get away from the Third Prince using [Thousand Myriad Faces] skill from [Myriad Manifestation Fox Mask], there would be a high chance that she would fall into the hands of the Third Prince''s enemies instead.
Tang Li Xue did not even dare to imagine what would happen to her if that really happened!
Tang Li Xue shook her head to push away all of her distracting thoughts and began to think about her next n.
"The most important thing I have to do right now is to find out all of the important information about this Azure Mist Continent. Oh, and the map of the entire Azure Mist Continent..." Tang Li Xue muttered in a resolute tone.
Just like what she had done in the Lightwind Continent where she used the Asura Demon Sect as her stepping stone to find Myriad Foxes Academy, Tang Li Xue also nned to use this Wei Dynasty as her stepping stone to find Myriad Foxes Academy''s branch in this Azure Mist Continent.
Tang Li Xue stood up from her bed and began to dress up at the dressing table without calling for the maids'' help.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... What a peerless beauty~! No matter how much I see it, I would still be mesmerized by my own look~!" Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in amazement while admiring her newly evolved charming appearance.
Her height had grown from around 160cm to around 170cm, and her body curve looked even more obvious.
Her previous childish look became much more seductive than before, especially her voluptuous hips along with her slender, fair, and delicate thighs and legs.
Her stunning face still looked cute and innocent but with the added touch of a heroic, mature, and noble temperament which made her much more aloof and dazzling than before she evolved. The current her was like an unattainable peerless stunning fairy.
Moreover, her topaz blue eyes were shining brightly like a pair of blue stars which made her look even more mysterious and bewitching, maybe it was the effect after she obtained the power of stars.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head in satisfaction, but her satisfied expression immediately stiffened and turned gloomy in dissatisfaction when she stared at her own small pair of buns in the mirror reflection.
"Oh, well... At least, they are growing from B... I mean from the barely C cup to the proper C cup now, right?" Tang Li Xue muttered tofort herself as she took a deep breath and pushed her chest forward to make her breasts look bigger.
"Damn it~! So what if they are only the C cup right now?! If [Rare] Grade is not enough to reach my dreamy E cup, then I will evolve to Spirit Beast~! If it is still not enough, then I will evolve even further until I be a mythical beast~! I do not believe that I cannot reach E cup in this lifetime~!" Tang Li Xue grasped her fist and dered in a firm tone.
After finishing admiring herself and tidying up her appearance, Tang Li Xue wore [Aura Hiding Cloak] to cover her silvery fox tails and ears, then she also wore [Moon Covering Veil] to cover her stunningly beautiful face before she sneaked out silently from her room.
Tang Li Xue did not want to attract the attention of the Third Prince because she wanted to look for the information she wanted in the Imperial Library without being supervised by anyone, so she decided to sneakily head to the Imperial Library alone.
Unfortunately, her suspicious movement was immediately noticed by maids and guards who were guarding right outside her room at the moment when she stepped out of her room. Despite their relentless persuasion for Tang Li Xue to rest more in her room, Tang Li Xue still insisted on going to the Imperial Library.
Tang Li Xue just got poisoned after all, so they were really worried that she would copse soon before she could even reach the Imperial Library.
Without any other choice, those maids and guards could only escort the stubborn Tang Li Xue closely while one of them hastily ran to the Third Prince''s room to report it.
However, those maids and guards found that the Third Prince was not in his room at this time.
It made sense since the Third Prince was actually a very busy person, especially after the previous incident.
If he had not beenpletely infatuated with Tang Li Xue''s beauty, he would definitely not have spent any of his precious time apanying her.
Without the instruction from the Third Prince, the maids and guards did not dare to stop Tang
Li Xue because one of the Third Prince''s orders to them was to fulfill all of Tang Li Xue''s
requests as long as it was not too excessive.
Just going to the Imperial Library should not be an excessive request, right?
Who knew that Tang Li Xue did not fall sick or faint before she could reach the Imperial
Library, but she actually bumped into trouble instead!
"Well, well, well...Look here~! There is a vixen who dares to seduce my fiance here~!" A feminine voice said in a mocking tone.
Tang Li Xue''s slender body instantly tensed after she heard the feminine voice.
When Tang Li Xue turned around, she actually saw the Third Prince''s fiance she had met before in front of the Imperial Pce''s gate!
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched a bit as she thought: ''What the heck?! How could everyone be so smart that they could guess that I was a vixen without even seeing my fox tail and ears?!!
"You are that Fu... Err, who are you again?" Tang Li Xue replied in azy dull tone.
The girl gnashed her teeth in anger and shouted in a threatening tone: "I am Lu Yixin, the Third Prince''s Fiance! How dare a wild vixen like you seduce my fiance?! I warn you to stay away from the Third Prince from now on or you will definitely die without any burial ce!" Tang Li Xue immediately pretended to be scared and muttered in a scared tone: "Ah, you are so scary~! You even threaten to kill me~! Don''t tell me that the previous poison incident is your doing?! Oh, no! I am so scared! I must tell the Third Prince about thister!" "YOU DARE~!" Lu Yixin yelled in rage while ring sharply at Tang Li Xue.
If Lu Yixin''s stare could kill, Tang Li Xue would have already died thousands of times right
now.
Unfortunately for Lu Yixin since her re could not kill Tang Li Xue, Tang Li Xue sneered provocatively without any fear at her instead.
Tang Li Xue''s behavior made Lu Yixin''s anger reach its peak, and she began to lose her mind.

Chapter 909: Chapter 909:The Fourth Earthly Desire Spirit!
Chapter 909:The Fourth Earthly Desire Spirit!
?
Lu Yixin suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Tang Li Xue''s arm in rage!
Tang Li Xue never expected that Lu Yixin was so bold that she dared to attack her in front of so many people''s eyes!
But Tang Li Xue did not know that Lu Yixin was an extremely spoiled child of the Lu Family, and she used to do anything she wanted without fearing the consequences since she was supported by the First Prince, Third Prince, and the Empress.
"I will tear your insolent mouth and ruin your face! I want to see if you can still seduce Brother Yunfei with your ruined face!" Lu Yixin cruelly said to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue tried to struggle to get free from Lu Yixin''s grasp, but it was only a futile effort because she only cultivated [Void Divinities Refining Method] for one day and only condensed one ''Void Seed'' so far.
Even though Tang Li Xue possessed strength stronger than the Qi Condensation Stage right now, but Lu Yixin''s cultivation level was clearly far above the Qi Condensation Stage.
Her cultivation might even reach thete Foundation Establishment Stage, so Tang Li Xue was definitely not her opponent with her current crippled state!
Just when Lu Yixin''s hand almost grabbed Tang Li Xue''s face, and Tang Li Xue could only close her topaz blue eyes...
The deep blue Phoenix of Pride in Tang Li Xue''s Dantian suddenly awoke and got restless! It even almost jumped out of Tang Li Xue''s body if Tang Li Xue had not hastily held it back! BAAANG~!
Lu Yixin suddenly got pushed dozens of steps back!
When Tang Li Xue opened her topaz blue eyes again, she saw a masculine figure already standing right in front of her.
At first, Tang Li Xue thought that person was the Third Prince, but she quickly realized that it was wrong.
"You are... Who are you?" Tang Li Xue muttered softly in bewilderment.
That man turned around and smiled kindly at Tang Li Xue.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
His look was 40% identical to the Third Prince, so it was not strange that Tang Li Xue almost misrecognized him as the Third Prince.
"Are you all right, Young Miss? Oh, I almost forgot to introduce myself. I am the Second Prince, Wei Guolin. Young Miss can just call me Brother Lin." The Second Prince politely replied to Tang Li Xue with a kind smile on his handsome face.
Tang Li Xue''s topaz blue eyes dted in astonishment.
She was stunned for a few moments not only because the guy in front of her was the Second Prince of the Great Wei Dynasty, but because of another unbelievable fact told by Phoenix of Pride!
Yes, the Second Prince who stood right in front of her actually also had one of 7 Earthly Desire Spirits just like her!
Other than her Phoenix of Pride, Tang Li Xue has only met with two other Earthly Desire Spirits so far.
Blood of Lust who was in Xiao Hei''s body...
While Lightning of Wrath was with Lei Qian''er...
This Second Prince should be the third... No, he should be the fourth person who had 7 Earthly Desire Spirits!
Tang Li Xue was really curious about what kind of Earthly Desire Spirits this Second Prince had.
Was it earth, wind, light, or darkness elemental?
What kind of deadly sin characteristics does it have? Was it envy, sloth, greed, or gluttony?
But Tang Li Xue immediately frowned ufortably since her Phoenix of Pride seemed to be impatient and greedy as if it could not hold back itself to devour the Earthly Desire Spirit that this Second Prince has!
It took a lot of effort for Tang Li Xue to suppress her Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian, so it would not be able to make any rash move in front of so many people!
If her Phoenix of Pride lost control and attacked the Second Prince in front of so many eyes inside this Imperial Pce, even the Third Prince would not be able to protect her, and she would definitely get punished heavily, or much worse than that, she might even get beheaded!
''Damn it~! Calm down, you greedy troublemaker! Do you really want us to die together so badly?!'' Tang Li Xue scolded the Phoenix of Pride harshly through their mind connection. Actually, the reaction of her Phoenix of Pride was very strange this time...
Even though the Phoenix of Pride also acted pretty much like this when it bumped with Blood of Lust and Lightning of Wrath, but it would immediately calm down after Tang Li Xue''s harsh warning.
But now, the Phoenix of Pride was still reacting very violently. It was still acting so impatient and rude even after Tang Li Xue scolded it harshly.
Tang Li Xue quickly realized that there was something wrong with the Phoenix of Pride''s current state.
''Wait a minute... Don''t tell me this dumb bird actually got affected by that Second Prince''s Earthly Desire Spirit?!'' Tang Li Xue concluded in her heart.
ording to the Phoenix of Pride''s reaction, the Second Prince''s Earthly Desire Spirit should be ''Greed'' or ''Gluttony''.
Before Tang Li Xue could think further, Lu Yixin red angrily at the Second Prince and asked: "Second Prince, why do you protect this vixen?! Don''t tell me that you are also falling for
her!"
The Second Prince was not angry at Lu Yixin''s words.
He still smiled kindly as always, but in Tang Li Xue''s eyes, his kind smile looked like an insidious fox smile instead.
"Miss Lu Yixin, you may be my brother''s fiance, but you should still maintain your good manners, at least when you are still in this Imperial Pce. If you keep actingwless like this, you will only ruin your Lu Family''s reputation." The Second Prince criticized Lu Yixin in a gentle tone as if he was a kind uncle who tried to discipline his nephew. Tang Li Xue tried her best to look calm while secretly trying her best to suppress the rioting Phoenix of Pride before she replied to the Second Prince: "Greetings to Your Highness Second Prince. Thank you very much for Your Highness Second Prince''s help."
The Second Prince turned around and stared at Tang Li Xue still with a kind smile on his handsome face.
But Tang Li Xue''s face was getting paler at every second as the Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian was acting more violent.
Cold sweat drenched Tang Li Xue''s back and face as she became increasingly sure that the Second Prince was the one who made her Phoenix of Pride act like this.
The Second Prince kept looking at Tang Li Xue as if he was appreciating her look, but who knew that he was actually using some secret means to affect Tang Li Xue''s Phoenix of Pride?!
It was clear that the Second Prince''s Earthly Desire Spirit should also sense the Phoenix of Pride in Tang Li Xue''s body, so the Second Prince decided to use his unknown means to stir it
up instead.
Every second was so torturing for Tang Li Xue...
Just as she almost could not hold on anymore, an eunuch actually approached the Second Prince and said: "I am sorry, Your Highness Second Prince, but Concubine Liu already waited for you toe. I am afraid..."
"Okay, I get it." The Second Prince replied to the eunuch before he faced Tang Li Xue again and said: "Young Miss, we will definitely meet again."
Before the Second Prince went, he nced at Lu Yixin once again which made her feel ufortable.
"Humph~!" Lu Yixin snorted while ring resentfully at Tang Li Xue before she left that
ce.
The Second Prince also followed the eunuch, and it did not take long for him to disappear from Tang Li Xue''s vision.
"Cough, cough, cough... Damn it~! That damn bast*rd~! Cough, cough... That was really close..." Tang Li Xue coughed violently while staggering a bit.
The Third Prince''s maids hastily caught her before she fell.
There might be the Third Prince''s maids and guards following closely behind her, but they clearly could not make any move to help Tang Li Xue when Lu Yixin attacked her before. On one side was the woman the Third Prince was infatuated with, while on the other side was the Third Prince''s fiance, both of them were not someone that the lowly maids and guards like
them could offend.
Tang Li Xue did not me them at all because she also understood their difficulties.
Those maids and guards persuaded Tang Li Xue to go back to her room again.
Tang Li Xue hesitated whether she should continue heading to the Imperial Library or return
to her room to rest like what these maids and guards suggested.
To be honest, the previous incident made her extremely exhausted, and she really wanted to
go back to take a nap in her room.
But in the end, she still decided to go to the Imperial Library... Tang Li Xue had be increasingly insecure living in this hellish ce, so she thought that
she might be able to escape from this ce as soon as possible after she got information about the branch of Myriad Foxes Academy located in this Azure Mist Continent.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue to reach the Imperial Library. Tang Li Xue had to admit that the Imperial Library truly looked impressive and grand, but unfortunately, it still could not bepared to Bookkeeper''s Library.
Tang Li Xue thought there should be many people in the Imperial Library, so she had to carefully find a way to conceal the information she wanted to find.
It might be bad if someone knew that she was looking for the location of the Myriad Foxes Academy''s branch in this Azure Mist Continent because they might be able to guess that Tang
Li Xue would escape from this pce and go there.
But she was actually wrong...
Surprisingly, there were not many people in the Imperial Library.
Chapter 910: Chapter 910: Went To Imperial Library!
Chapter 910: Went To Imperial Library!
?
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief before she muttered: "it really is good news for me that there are not many people in this Imperial Library."
"You all can just wait for me outside the Imperial Library." Tang Li Xue ordered the maids and guards.
"But Miss..." Some maids and guards reluctantly retorded.
Tang Li Xue did not give them any chance to argue as she hastily got away from them and stepped into the Imperial Library alone.
"Can I help you, Miss?" The old library clerk asked Tang Li Xue politely.
Tang Li Xue shook her head to reject his offer and replied: "Thank you, but no need. I just get bored, so I want to find something to read."
After that, Tang Li Xue began to walk around the library to find the book she wanted in a rxed manner.
The Imperial Library have three floors, so it took a while for Tang Li Xue to find the books she wanted.
She also deliberately mixed them with biographies of several famous figures and literature books, so no one would find it suspicious even if someone looked at the books she read. After spending the entire day in the Imperial Library until the sky turned dark, Tang Li Xue managed to get some crucial information about the Beast Race in this Azure Mist Continent. Tang Li Xue frowned deeply while closing the book in her grasp and muttering in a frustrated tone: "Sigh... This does not look really good. I never thought the Beast Race''s situation in this Azure Mist Continent was actually this bad."
Yes, Tang Li Xue never expected that the Beast Race''s situation in this Azure Mist Continent was actually so bad...
If the Beast Race in the Lightwind Continent was in a dominant position, then the Beast Race in this Azure Mist Continent was in a reversed situationpared to that.
The Human Race''s six great dynasties suppressed the entire Beast Race in this Azure Mist Continent until they did not even dare to get close to any human cities!
The suppressed Beast Race of this Azure Mist Continent could only live and hide in the mountains and deep forests.
From some historical books Tang Li Xue had read in the Imperial Library, she found several reasons why the Human Race in Azure Mist Continent could suppress the Beast Race.
First, the Human Race in the Azure Mist Continent had mastered much more advanced battle formation and weapon technologypared to the Human Race in the Lightwind Continent. Each army of six great dynasties had their own unique cultivation technique.
For example, the unique cultivation technique of the Great Wei Dynasty army was called the [Demon ying Art].
By cultivating [Demon ying Art], not only every soldier could increase their strength and cultivation level, but they could also slowly umte ''malevolent Qi''.
When these soldiers fought together as an army and formed the formation called the [Demon ying Battle Formation], their ''malevolent Qi'' could merge and improve theirbat power further.
If 1 million soldiers with the cultivation of Qi Condensation Stage were fighting as one army with [Demon ying Battle Formation], even low-rank Core Formation Stage experts could be defeated.
Then what if 1 million soldiers with the cultivation of Acupuncture Opening stage or even Foundation Establishment were fighting together with [Demon ying Battle Formation]?
What if there were 10 million soldiers or even more fighting together with [Demon ying Battle Formation]?
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath while muttering in a solemn tone: "No wonder the Beast Race in this Azure Mist Continent was beaten so miserably."
Of course, that was not the only reason why the Beast Race in Azure Mist Continent could be suppressed so badly by the Human Race...
The second reason was because the Human Race in Azure Mist Continent actually has the experts with cultivation level above Nascent Soul Stage!
The highest cultivator level of the Lightwind Continent might only be at the Nascent Soul Stage because the concentration of spiritual energy at the Lightwind Continent was very thin.
But this Azure Mist Continent was different!
Maybe it was because the Azure Mist Continent was much closer to the Central Continent, the concentration of spiritual energy was actually several times denserpared to the Lightwind Continent.
That was the main reason why the cultivators in this Azure Mist Continent could breakthrough to higher cultivation levels much easier than the cultivators in the Lightwind Continent.
Meanwhile, most cultivators in the Lightwind Continent needed to rely on pills to breakthrough because of the thin spiritual energy problem.
Unlike using the precious natural treasures of heaven and earth to breakthrough, using too many pills would umte impurities in their bodies, and it would make their future cultivation level breakthrough much more difficult.
This was the second reason why the cultivators in the Lightwind Continent could only reach the Nascent Soul Stage at most.
However, it really could not be helped since the precious natural treasures of heaven and earth were too rare in Lightwind Continent because most of those precious treasures could not survive in the thin spiritual energy environment.
However, the precious natural treasures of heaven and earth were actually many times more abundant in this Azure Mist Continent because of the dense spiritual energy environment.
If the Lightwind Continent was the remote desert, then the Azure Mist Continent was the dry meadow, while the Central Continent was the fertile freshwater marsnd.
Tang Li Xue sighed and secretlymented at how unfair this was in her heart.
All of this information might be helpful for Tang Li Xue to understand the Azure Mist Continent''s overall situation, but unfortunately, she still could not find the information she wanted to find the most.
Yes, Tang Li Xue still could not find any clue about the location of the Myriad Foxes Academy''s branch in this Azure Mist Continent.
But it actually made sense since the six great dynasties might have already taken action to attack Myriad Foxes Academy if they had known the location.
"Miss, it is already dark. The library will be closed soon." The old clerk reminded Tang Li Xue.
"I see. Can I borrow back some books?" Tang Li Xue asked the old clerk while kindly smiling
at him.
"This..." The old clerk hesitated for a while.
The old clerk had never seen Tang Li Xue until today, so he was not sure if Tang Li Xue could be trusted or not.
If there were some princes or nobles who wanted to look at those bookster and found that those books were missing, the old clerk would be the one who got med.
Tang Li Xue quickly realized the old clerk''s difficulty from his hesitating expression, so she
did not insist on it.
When Tang Li Xue went out of the Imperial Library, several guards and maids who had already waited impatiently outside hastily escorted her back to the Third Prince''s courtyard.
These guards and maids were actually in a great dilemma...
On one side, they really wanted to call and persuade Tang Li Xue to return, but on the other side, they were afraid that Tang Li Xue wouldin about them to the Third Princeter, and they would get punished harshly because of it.
In the end, they decided to be patient and waited for Tang Li Xue outside the Imperial Library
instead.
Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief after she managed to return safely to the Third Prince''s courtyard without bumping into any trouble.
But Tang Li Xue clearly got happy too quickly...
"You... How dare you wander around without my permission?! Do you know that you almost
died after getting poisoned two days ago?!" The Third Prince lost his temper and angrilyn/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
yelled at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue might feel a little guilty to the Third Prince, but she also felt very unhappy being
scolded by him.
Despite that, Tang Li Xue did not dare to offend the Third Prince yet since the Third Prince
was the only person she relied on here.
Even though Tang Li Xue angrily cursed the Third Prince in her heart, she still put on a depressed and sad expression before saying in a tone filled with guilt: "I... I am sorry, Your Highness. I felt too bored, so I went to the Imperial Library to read some books to relieve my
boredom."
The Third Prince''s anger instantly melted like snow in the summer as he saw Tang Li Xue''s stunning appearance with a pitiful expression.
The Third Prince awkwardly exined to Tang Li Xue with a helpless expression: "I understand that you must be feeling bored being shut in the room all day, but you should know that the current situation in Imperial Pce is... not very safe. I am really afraid that something untoward will happen to you again if you wander around alone without me." Tang Li Xue secretly frowned deeply in worry while thinking: ''Not very safe, huh... It looks like the Emperor''s health has deteriorated faster than everyone''s expectation. What a bad luck! It seems I have to make some emergency ns and arrangements quickly, so I can escape from here as soon as possible if something untoward happenster.''
After the Third Prince warned Tang Li Xue a few more times, he invited Tang Li Xue to eat
dinner together as usual.
Even though Tang Li Xue was not in the mood to eat anything, but she still decided to ept the Third Prince''s invitation since she needed to feed her three greedy little babies.
Chapter 911: Chapter 911: New Bodyguard!
Chapter 911: New Bodyguard!
?
Even though Tang Li Xue was not in the mood to eat anything, she still decided to ept the Third Prince''s invitation since she needed to feed her three greedy little babies.
After dinner, the Third Prince chatted with Tang Li Xue for a while, but Tang Li Xue made some random excuse and said that she was very tired right now, so she wanted to sleep earlier. Of course, Tang Li Xue did not n to really sleep after she went back to her room. Under such huge pressure, Tang Li Xue felt as if she were sitting on an active volcano that could erupt at any time. Tang Li Xue decided to cultivate [Void Divinities Refining Method] all night instead, so she could consume the destructive space energy in her body to condense more ''Void Seeds'' quickly and recover faster.
Until the morning sun rose and the next morning came, Tang Li Xue still had not managed to condense her second ''Void Seed'', but her first ''Void Seed'' became more solid and powerful after it absorbed more destructive space energy in Tang Li Xue''s body.
Of course, the first ''Void Seed'' was still far away from transforming into a ''Void Seal''. It might take more than a week or even a month for it to sessfully transform into a ''Void Seal''.
Tang Li Xue exhaled the turbid breath and slowly opened her topaz blue eyes.
Even though she was cultivating [Void Divinities Refining Method] for an entire night without sleeping, Tang Li Xue did not feel tired at all, and she even felt very refreshed instead.
Compared to yesterday, Tang Li Xue could feel that her strength was at least growing 20 to 30 percent.
Unfortunately, it was still very far away from her true strength, but it really could not be helped since she could only grind the destructive space energy in her body little by little like this by diligently cultivating [Void Divinities Refining Method].
"This is too slow! Is there really no way to speed up this process?!" Tang Li Xue impatiently said.
[Of course, there is a way.]
"There is really a way to speed it up?! You damn System, why don''t you say it from the very beginning?!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise.
[Because Host did not ask it.]
Tang Li Xue''s pink lips twitched slightly as she tried her best not to curse and scold her System very harshly.
"Then tell me how to do it quickly!" Tang Li Xue muttered to her System in an angry tone.
[Void Divinities Refining Method is the same as the other skills, martial arts, or techniques, so Host can speed up the mastery by consuming Comprehension Pill.]
"Ah, Comprehension Pill~! How could I forget about that thing?!" Tang Li Xue muttered softly in shock.
Tang Li Xue might not have any [Comprehension Pill] in her System''s storage, so she really forgot about it, but she could actually buy it from her System''s mall!
[Comprehension Pill: 3000 Deity Coins]
"3000 Deity Coins for one [Comprehension Pill] is so damn expensive!" Tang Li Xue groaned in heartache.
Although Tang Li Xue currently has more than 10,000 Deity Coins in her pocket, but she got it from the previous Foxes Hunting Festival Quest and Secret Realm Quest.
Both quests were extremely difficult toplete, so these 10,000 Deity Coins were obtained from her blood, sweat, and tears!
Tang Li Xue might be able to buy three [Comprehension Pills] in one go with her 10,000 Deity Coins, but she was really unwilling to spend all of her hard-saving Deity Coins only to buy [Comprehension Pills]!
Just when Tang Li Xue was hesitating on whether she should spend her Deity Coins to buy [Comprehension Pills], she suddenly sensed something was moving violently in her space pouch.
ng, ng, ng...
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she took out her space pouch and tried to check it while murmuring in a suspicious tone: "What the heck is..."
BWOOOOOSH~!
A pitch-ck ck sword suddenly flew out from her space pouch!
"Good morning, Sister Xue~!" A crisp cute voice greeted Tang Li Xue excitedly.
"You are... Xi''er?! So, you have already woken up~!" Tang Li Xue eximed in surprise mixed with joy.
Yes, the pitch-ck ck sword was actually [Sword of Disaster]!
Xi''er had fallen into a deep sleep after she merged to be [Sword of Disaster]''s treasure spirit in the underwater pce before.
Tang Li Xue thought Xi''er might need several months or so to recover, but Xi''er actually recovered much faster than she expected.
"I also thought I would need a lot of time to recover, but who knew that the strange aura produced by this new vessel was so miraculous?! Thanks to it, I can recover early, and I can even help you fight now, hehehe..." Pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] flew around Tang Li Xue several times while Xi''er''s cheerful voice rang in Tang Li Xue''s mind.
"Oh? What do you mean by you can even help me fight?" Tang Li Xue widened her charming topaz blue eyes as she curiously asked Xi''er.
"Hehehe, Sister Xue, look~!" Pitch-ck [Sword of Disaster] cheerfully said as it suddenly emitted mysterious ck light.
Then a beautifuldy in an elegant Hanfu red dress appeared right in front of Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
"This is... the scary woman from the Medicine Garden Pce in the Fallen Ancient Sect''s secret realm!" Tang Li Xue eximed in dread and surprise.
Her body unconsciously moved to distance herself from the beautifuldy in the red dress, but she almost slipped down from the bed and fell down embarrassingly. Fortunately, the beautifuldy in the red dress quickly caught Tang Li Xue and helped her before she could fall down.
"Calm down, Sister Xue. This body is under my control now." Xi''er''s cheerful voice came out from the red-dresseddy''s mouth.
"This... How could it be..." Tang Li Xue muttered in confusion.
She remembered that she only stored the badly damaged Heaven Edge Sword in the [Sword of Disaster] before.
So, even if the Heaven Edge Sword managed to recover by absorbing the Darkness Energy and Death Energy produced by the [Sword of Disaster, it should be the old swordsman who camen/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
out instead.
After thinking deeply for a while, Tang Li Xue immediately recalled that the Heaven Edge Sword actually absorbed the red-dresseddy''s ck energy in the end.
"Ah, I see, so that was the reason~! Wait a minute... Does it mean the Heaven Edge Sword can summon both thedy in the red dress and the old swordsman now?" Tang Li Xue said in an
excited tone.
She had already seen how powerful thedy in the red dress and the old swordsman were when they fought fiercely against each other previously in the Medicine Garden Pce.
Both of them should possess the strength above Nascent Soul Stage master, especially the fierce old swordsman!
If she had them as her bodyguards, her safety here would surely be much more reassured!
"Uhh, no, Sister Xue... That broken sword can only summon one person as its wielder, but as its controller, I can tinker a bit with the appearance of its wielder. Umm, rather than the ugly old man''s appearance, this beautifuldy''s temte is clearly much more pleasing to the eyes, right?" Xi''er''s words immediately broke Tang Li Xue''s expectations.
"Sigh... Oh, well... At least I have one powerful bodyguard now. Wait, how strong is this corpse body now, Xi''er?" Tang Li Xue asked skeptically.
Xi''er shook her head and exined: "The broken sword is still far from being fully recovered, so this body can only use less than 10% of her full strength for now."
"I knew it would not be that easy!" Tang Li Xue eximed in great disappointment. Xi''er hastily added a few words again tofort Tang Li Xue: "But don''t worry, Sister Xue. Even though this body can only use less than 10% of her full strength, her strength still reaches mid-rank Nascent Soul Stage plus she can use sword intent and sword energy, not to mention she is also unkible with the power of ck energy body, so her overall strength is
not too bad."
"What?! Mid-rank Nascent Soul Stage with sword intent and sword energy plus unkible ck energy body?!" Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes again in disbelief. ''Damn, what the heck is that?! Doesn''t that mean the power of the old swordsman and the
scary woman in the red dressbine into one body?! That is really scary! If the Heaven Edge Sword fully recovered, her strength should be far above Nascent Soul Stage!'' Tang Li Xue thought in astonishment and excitement.
When Tang Li Xue wanted to ask Xi''er further about it, someone suddenly knocked on the
door of her room several times.
Knock, knock, knock...
"It should be maids. Xi''er, you should go back to the [Sword of Disaster] first. It would be bad if they suddenly saw you appear in my room. I will find a way for you, so you can legally appear and guard me in front of everyer." Tang Li Xue said to Xi''er in a solemn tone.
"I understand, Sister Xue." Xi''er obediently replied as she controlled thedy in the red dress to return to the [Sword of Disaster], the [Sword of Disaster] flew back into Tang Li Xue''s space
pouch.
"You cane in now~!" Tang Li Xue shouted to allow the maids outside to enter her room.
Tang Li Xue silently thought of a n in her mind while the maids helped her to tidy up her silver hair and dress: ''It seems I have to cancel my n to visit the Imperial Library today. I should find the Third Prince and ask for his permission to go for a walk around this Imperial City, so I can find a random reason to bring Xi''er backter.''
Chapter 912: Tang Li Xue Must Die!
912 Chapter 912: Tang Li Xue Must Die!
After the maids helped her take a bath, tidy her long silver hair, and put on her dress, Tang Li Xue immediately went to look for the Third Prince.
Unfortunately, her n actually failed since the Third Prince had already gone out much earlier.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only wait until the Third Prince returnedter, so she decided to go to the Imperial Library today instead.
But just when Tang Li Xue wanted to step out from the Third Prince''s courtyard, several guards blocked her way.
Tang Li Xue frowned unpleasantly as she red at the guards and asked: "What are you doing?"
The several guards bowed their heads and apologized: "Sorry, Miss Tang. But this is His Highness Third Prince''s order."
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper and asked coldly: "Do you mean His Highness Third Prince ordered you to confine me in this courtyard?"
The several guards fell silent, but Tang Li Xue instantly understood that her guess should be correct.
Tang Li Xue was very pissed off in her heart, but there was nothing she could do, so she could only choose to return to her room.
After she entered her room, Tang Li Xue put on a tantrum act and chased out all the maids from her room.
Tang Li Xue secretly mobilized the space energy from the ''Void Seed'' inside her body to seal the entire room, so the sound inside the room would not be heard from outside.
Tang Li Xue panted heavily as cold sweat soaked her forehead.
"To think I almost exhausted to death just by making a simple istion barrier like this. It seems I also need a lot of practice on how to use space energy from now on, so I can use it more skillfully and efficiently when I need itter." Tang Li Xue murmured to herself.
Then Tang Li Xue released Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia from her System''s pet space.
The three little cuties immediately rushed toward Tang Li Xue. They happily rubbed onto her and kissed her.
Tang Li Xue''s annoyance and anger quickly dissipated, and the room was filled with Tang Li Xue and Yaya''s melodiousughter.
After ying around for a while with the three of them, Tang Li Xue pped her forehead and said to them: "Oh, right~! I almost forgot to introduce someone to you all."
Tang Li Xue took out pitch ck [Sword of Disaster] from her space pouch and tapped at it a few times with her slender fingers.
The [Sword of Disaster] emitted ck gas, and the ck gas solidified into a beautiful maturedy in a red Hanfu dress.
Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia were very surprised by the sudden appearance of this red-dresseddy, so they jumped back to keep their distance and put on their battle stance in an instant.
"What''s wrong, Sister Xue? Do you need my help?" Xi''er asked Tang Li Xue with her usual cheerful voice.
But when Xi''er saw the trio of Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia, her eyes immediately brightened as she greeted all of them kindly: "Hello, everyone~! It is really nice to see you all again, hehehe!" n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Tang Li Xue giggled in amusement when she saw the surprised, bewildered, and wary expressions on Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia''s faces.
"She is our new teammate, Xi''er. You three should have already known her since you three had met her in Underwater Pce before." Tang Li Xue introduced Xi''er to Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia casually.
Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia quickly remembered it after Tang Li Xue mentioned it once.
Yaya and Lucia greeted Xi''er warmly while the tsundere and arrogant Little Loki still put on its usual cold and indifferent persona to Xi''er.
Tang Li Xue, Xi''er, and everyone did not think much of it since Little Loki was mostly acting like this to everyone, except to Tang Li Xue.
"All right, everyone... Honestly, our situation is not really good right now, so I need your help..." Tang Li Xue muttered to them in a solemn tone.
At first, Tang Li Xue nned to forbear and stay in this Imperial Pce for a few more days until she got all the crucial information about this Azure Mist Continent.
Unfortunately, her n could not keep up with change...
Because of what had happened yesterday, the Third Prince actually forbade her from leaving this courtyard today.
Since she could not go to the Imperial Library anymore to find any useful information, Tang Li Xue decided to speed up her n to get out of this Imperial Pce that was full of dangers and conspiracies as soon as possible.
Of course, it would not be that easy for her to leave this Imperial Pce under the eyes of so many people!
Even if she managed to somehow do it with the help of her [Myriad Manifestation Fox Mask], she would definitely be a fugitive and get chased by the Third Prince''s people.
Tang Li Xue could already see the Third Prince''s deep obsession with her just by looking at his eyes, so she knew that the Third Prince would never let her go that easily.
If she got caught by the Third Prince after she ran away from here, her fate would be like a canary in the cage.
''Sigh... If only I had my full strength now, I would not need to worry too much about being chased by anyone. But with my current limited strength, the chance of me getting caught again after running away from here is very high.'' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind.
Tang Li Xue started to miss her perfect copy and [Ethereal Form]...
Previously, Tang Li Xue always managed to get away from being chased by using the swapping and re-summon strategy with her perfect copy plus [Ethereal Form].
Unfortunately, she could not use any of her divine abilities for now because her beast core was still in almost shattered condition because of the destructive space energy in her body.
The only way to restore her beast core was by consuming all of the destructive space energy in her body by cultivating [Void Divinities Refining Method] before she could restore her beast corepletely with [Recovery Pill].
''s, forget it... there is no point in thinking about that at this point.'' Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head as she decided to focus on devising a perfect escape n with Yaya, Little Loki, Lucia, and Xi''er.
Even though Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia might not really be useful in this field, but five heads should be better than one, right?
Their discussionsted for a few hours.
In the end, Tang Li Xue and Xi''er concluded that... ''Tang Li Xue must die!''
19:09
Of course, it did not mean Tang Li Xue had to die for real, but she had to die in the Third Prince''s eyes, so the Third Prince would not hunt her down after she escaped from here.
The Third Prince''s Fiance, Lu Yixin, and the Second Prince, Wei Guolin, who made things difficult for Tang Li Xue yesterday were the best scapegoats for this incident.
"ording to Sister Xue''s story, the Second Prince should be a scheming person, so it would not be easy to frame him. I think it would be better to just target the Third Prince''s Fiance." Xi''er gave her opinion.
Tang Li Xue also nodded in agreement.
To be honest, she really didn''t want to deal with the Second Prince anymore.
In Tang Li Xue''s opinion, the Second Prince was not only smart and ambitious, but he was also very cruel, a person who did not have a bottom line in doing anything to get what he wanted.
Yesterday''s incident was concrete proof of that.
She clearly did not have any grievance with the Second Prince, but he actually used his ability to lead an innocent girl like her into his trap without any scruples!
"Anyway, the sooner we make preparations, the better it will be. I cannot stand staying in a dangerous ce full of scheming and conspiracies like this pce any longer." Tang Li Xue muttered in an impatient tone.
Xi''er who was currently using the body of the red-dresseddy patted her chest andforted: "Don''t worry, Sister Xue~! I will definitely help you escape from this pce safely!"
Yayaya~! (I will help too~!)
Nyaow, meow, meow~?! (What are you worrying about with me here?!)
Kwek, Kwek~! (Let me help too~!)
Tang Li Xue chuckled as she patted Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia''s heads gently while saying: "Don''t worry! You all will surely have your own tasks to doter."
After discussion, Tang Li Xue hid all of them for a while before she ordered the maids to bring many delicious foods into her room.
Then Tang Li Xue chased all of the maids out before she let Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia out again from her System''s pet space, then they ate the delicious food together.
Unfortunately, Xi''er could not eat with them since thedy in the red dress was a corpse after all.
As the corpse, thedy in the red dress could not eat like the others, but she only needed to absorb the Death Energy in the [Sword of Disaster] to nurture her body and get stronger.
After they were full, the trio of Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia went back to System''s pet space to sleep, while Tang Li Xue sat on her bed and began her daily cultivation of [Void Divinities Refining Method] again.
In the evening, the Third Prince finally went back to his courtyard.
Tang Li Xue immediately went out to meet with him and asked for his permission to go for a walk around this Imperial City tomorrow.
Tang Li Xue had already thought of many ways to persuade the Third Prince so he would let her out tomorrow, but surprisingly, the Third Prince immediately allowed her without any reluctance.
We will see what Tang Li Xue ns to doter. (>w<) But would everything really go ording to her expectations?
Chapter 913: New Space Skills!
913 Chapter 913: New Space Skills!
Tang Li Xue widened her charming topaz blue eyes when she heard the Third Prince''s reply: "Really? Do you really not mind if I go out to sightsee around the Imperial City tomorrow?"
The Third Prince smiled kindly at Tang Li Xue and said: "Of course, I do not mind. I know that you should be boredsince I locked you up in my courtyard today, but you should understand that the situation in this Imperial Pce was not peaceful."
Tang Li Xue nodded while smiling back at the Third Prince and replying: "I know, Your Highness Third Prince did it to protect my safety."
"Haha, Miss Tang really understands my thoughts. By the way, I am free tomorrow, so I will apany you to look around the Imperial City." The Third Prince muttered in a delighted tone.
Tang Li Xue''s expression stiffened for a second when she heard the Third Prince''s words, and the gentle smile on her stunning face almost cracked.
"Why are you... Err, I mean Your Highness Third Prince should be busy with many things, right? So, Your Excellency do not need to apany me tomorrow. If Your Excellency is worried about my safety, Your Excellency can just increase the guards around meter." Tang Li Xue replied to the Third Prince.
But the Third Prince shook his head to reject Tang Li Xue''s suggestion and said: "It is okay. I have been so busy that I have not had any free time to apany you these past few days. It should be okay if I take a day off to apany you tomorrow."
Despite feeling upset in her heart, Tang Li Xue did not show it on her face. She smiled gratefully at the Third Prince and whispered softly in a shy tone: "Thank Your Highness Third Prince for taking a day out to apany me."
The Third Prince kept staring at the stunningly beautiful Tang Li Xue with an infatuated expression as he got closer and closer to her while muttering: "Miss Tang, I..."
"Yawn~! It is already sote. I will go back to my room now to rest, so I can get up early tomorrow, hehe... Good night, Your Highness Third Prince!" Tang Li Xue already sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and the Third Prince seemed to be up to no good, so she quickly found a random reason and slipped back into her room.
After she stepped into her room and closed the door, she wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve while sighing: "Fiuh, that was a close one. But it seems I can no longer refuse him so tantly again tomorrow, sigh..."
"Oh, well... At least the first step of my escape n has been sessful so far. The rest should be Xi''er and the others'' turns." Tang Li Xue smiled in a delightful mood.
After calming down her mood, Tang Li Xue closed her topaz blue eyes and sat cross-legged on her bed, then began to practice [Void Divinities Refining Method] again.
The time was too tight which made her feel really uneasy.
Even though Tang Li Xue did not have any clue about the Emperor''s current condition, but she had a hunch that his condition should be deteriorating fast.
That should be the reason why the Third Prince was so busytely.
He should be busy making final preparations for the battle for the throne.
It could easily be imagined that this Imperial Pce would be turned into a living hell once the Emperor passed away, and the princes would wage war against each other.
Not to mention that this Great Wei Dynasty was not a mortal dynasty, but one of the giant cultivator dynasties in the Azure Mist Continent!
Before that happened, Tang Li Xue had to find a way to get out of this ce as soon as possible.
"This is too slow. Oh, well... It seems I have a choice." Tang Li Xue whispered as she stretched her fair hand and opened the window of her System''s mall.
Tang Li Xue had decided to spend some of her Deity Coins to buy [Comprehension Pill] from her System instead.
Her Deity Coins immediately shrunk from 10,896 to 7,896.
[Thank you for spending 3000 Deity Coins to purchase Comprehension Pill from System''s mall.]
"What an expensive pill! The other pills such as [Recovery Pill] are only 1000 Deity Coins, but your price is three times as much as them! I hope your efficacy is as powerful as your price." Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth andined before she put the [Comprehension Pill] on her pink lips and swallowed it.
When the [Comprehension Pill] melted in her body, Tang Li Xue''sprehension and training speed instantly skyrocketed by many times in an instant!
If the previous speed of practicing [Void Divinities Refining Method] was like a turtle crawling on the ground, then the current speed was like an eagle flying in the sky!
Tang Li Xue hastily took this chance to condense a new ''Void Seed'' at her middle Dantian which should be located in her chest.
Each Lower Dantian, Middle Dantian, and Upper Dantian represented Qi, body, and spirit.
Tang Li Xue''s chest was also the ce where her beast core was located.
With the current condition of her beast core which was full of cracks and on the verge ofpletely shattering, Tang Li Xue had to be really careful at condensing the second ''Void Seed''.
If something untoward happened, the consequence was not only she fail to condense the second ''Void Seed'', but even her beast core would be destroyedpletely, and she would be crippled for real or even died on the spot!
Fortunately, everything went extremely smoothly thanks to the miraculous effect of prehension Pill].
With the help of prehension Pill], Tang Li Xue managed to refine more than a hundred strands of pure spatial energy from the violent destructive space energy in her body and easily condensed the second ''Void Seed'' inside her chest.
Different from when she was almost exhausted to death at the time she condensed the first ''Void Seed'', Tang Li Xue did it quite easily this time.
Since the effect of the [Comprehension Pill] was still not over yet, Tang Li Xue boldly decided to take this chance to condense the third ''Void Seed'' in her Upper Dantian!
The Upper Dantian was located at the center of her forehead.
It was the ce where her mental energy, spirit, and sea of consciousness resided.
The risk and difficulty of condensing the third ''Void Seed'' were actually not lower than the second ''Void Seed''. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
If something untoward happened when she condensed the third ''Void Seed'', her sea of consciousness might be shattered and her soul would be scattered.
Tang Li Xue rapidly refined another batch of pure spatial energy from the violent destructive space energy in her body and carefully guided the pure spatial energy toward her Upper Dantian strand by strand.
The time for condensing the third ''Void Seed'' was much longer than the first and second ''Void Seed'', but Tang Li Xue was not impatient at all.
After a few hours, Tang Li Xue could finally sigh in relief after the third ''Void Seed'' sessfully condensed at the center of her sea of consciousness.
It also meant that Tang Li Xue had finallypleted the first level of [Void Divinities Refining Method]!
There was still a little bit effect of the [Comprehension Pill] left.
Unfortunately, it was no longer enough for Tang Li Xue to practice the second level of [Void Divinities Refining Method].
At the second level, Tang Li Xue had to condense twenty ''Void Seeds'' in her twelve main meridians and eight extraordinary meridians.
Not only did the number of ''Void Seeds'' she had to condense increase by many times, but the difficulty was also increased by many times.
Rather than wasting the rest of [Comprehension Pill]''s efficacy only to refine more pure spatial energy, Tang Li Xue chose toprehend some of the most basic skills in [Void Divinities Refining Method] instead.
.....
As the morning sunlight entered the bedroom through the gap in the closed window and door, Tang Li Xue heard the maids knock on the door of her room a few times to wake her up, she immediately ended her cultivation session by exhaling a turbid breath and slowly opening her dazzling topaz blue eyes.
A mesmerizing satisfied smile bloomed on her stunningly beautiful face as she muttered: "I actually managed to condense two more ''Void Seeds'' in one go~! With the power of these three ''Void Seeds'', I should have the strength equal to mid-rank to high-rank of Acupuncture Opening Stage!"
"Moreover, the Void Seed in my lower Dantian is already showing some signs of evolving into a ''Void Seal''. If that really happened, my strength would jump again to the Foundation Establishment Stage!" Tang Li Xue delightfully said as she raised the palm of her hand and the docile translucent space energy dancing on the top of her palm.
The space energy spread around Tang Li Xue''s body and formed some kind of space barrier that enveloped her.
Tang Li Xue pointed her slender finger in a finger gun gesture which coated in translucent space energy.
"Bang~!" Tang Li Xue cutely let out a sound from her mouth, then...
BOOOOOMM~!
The tea table in the middle of her room suddenly exploded to dust!
After that, Tang Li Xue''s slender body actually blended with the surroundings and disappeared.
[Void Bullet] and [Void Barrier]!
These two skills were the most basic skills in [Void Divinities Refining Method].
A little improvement and some new skills. (>w<) Hopefully, it would help Tang Li Xueter in her escape.
